A second petition from the card stunt committee was read, asking for $12 with which to install an amplifying system for the last three football games. Mr. Orr stated that the system is necessary in order that students “working” the cards may be given complete directions. Much controversial discussion followed. Winifred Wood moved that the Senate decide whether or not the amplifying system should be used. The motion was seconded and carried, after which it was decided that the system would not be used. Table Y Petition Although the YWCA petitioned the organization for $100 to send delegates to state and regional conferences, the petition was tabled until a later date. While complete details arc not yet available concerning the proposed law review, it is to be distributed to various law schools throughout the country.

Bill Blount Says Stiller Hazing Program Will Replace Mildness; Field Day Set for December 3 Green-dinked Miami freshmen will undergo a full-fledged Hell Week next week in which every member of the sophomore clas9 will take part, sophomore president Bill Blount announced yesterday.

Gaylor, Jacqueline Lieberman, and Robert Remus. “It’s a Great Life,” written by Bebe Fineman and directed by Meade Stockdell will have Barbara Willock, Penny Roth, Bour Brown, and Robert Sheen in its cast. Manuel Roth, who is the author of another original play, “Strange Glory,” which was presented here last year, wrote “The Unpromised Land” for this bill of plays.

Then, a week from next Tuesday, a Frosh-Sophomore Field Day has been tentatively scheduled. The losing class in this series of athletic events has to build the bonfire for the Georgia game, and members of the Vigilance Committee are already promising that if they should possibly lose, the bonfire they build will make this year’s freshman efforts seem puny by comparison. As -a major part of Hell Week, freshmen will be forcibly requested to build an extremely large bonfire for the Homecoming celebration over the weekend of November 28-30. In addition to the announcement of the plans his committee has for hazing, Blount advised freshmen not to inquire into the official scholastic status of any paddle-carrying upperclassmen as far as quality points and credits were concerned. * * * Sophomores will meet at 10:30 Tuesday morning in the Cardboard Theatre just before the beginning of Frosh Hell Week.

(ACP) — Blondes may have been the gentlemen’s choice a few years back, but today the girl who can cook has little trouble in finding a husband. This fact has been borne out through a study made by the University of New Hampshire’s appointment bureau. Women graduates have had no trouble placing themselves as teachers in home economics. During recent years vacancies reported to the bureau have been double the number of girls eligible to fill them. The reason: Turnover in the home economics field is high because the average teacher marries within three years. By a vote of 123 to 115, Dorothy Ashe, Kappa Kappa Gamma, was elected Queen of Homecoming over Virginia Allen, Chi Omega, as a result of the polling held Monday. Nancy Dobbins, Zeta Tau Alpha, was third with 59 ballots cast in her favor.

FRATERNITIES MEET AT 12:30 Interfraternity council members will meet today at 12:30 in Room 216. The revised constitution will be read. and frosh meetings formerly held’ this year and in past years. Every upperclassman will be mobilized into a powerful Vigilance Committee and will be permitted to carry and use paddles. Any form of hazing permitted under freshman rules will be allowed. According to Blount, freshmen who have not worn and are not wearing their dinks will suffer the severest form of punishment. Then, a week from next Tuesday, a Frosh-Sophomore Field Day has been tentatively scheduled. The losing class in this series of athletic events has to build the bonfire for the Georgia game, and members of the Vigilance Committee are already promising that if they should possibly lose, the bonfire they build will make this year’s freshman efforts seem puny by comparison. As -a major part of Hell Week, freshmen will be forcibly requested to build an extremely large bonfire for the Homecoming celebration over the weekend of November 28-30. In addition to the announcement of the plans his committee has for hazing, Blount advised freshmen not to inquire into the official scholastic status of any paddle-carrying upperclassmen as far as quality points and credits were concerned. * * * Sophomores will meet at 10:30 Tuesday morning in the Cardboard Theatre just before the beginning of Frosh Hell Week.

(ACP) — Blondes may have been the gentlemen’s choice a few years back, but today the girl who can cook has little trouble in finding a husband. This fact has been borne out through a study made by the University of New Hampshire’s appointment bureau. Women graduates have had no trouble placing themselves as teachers in home economics. During recent years vacancies reported to the bureau have been double the number of girls eligible to fill them. The reason: Turnover in the home economics field is high because the average teacher marries within three years. By a vote of 123 to 115, Dorothy Ashe, Kappa Kappa Gamma, was elected Queen of Homecoming over Virginia Allen, Chi Omega, as a result of the polling held Monday.
