With the deadline for Carni-Gras entries still over a week away Jay Bouton, Pep Club President, announced that over 40 booths have been entered.
Lambda Chi Alpha has entered a dozen and Sigma Chi five.
Other entries are widely scattered indicating a high degree of support for this year’s Carni-Gras celebration. Entries will be accepted at the office of the director of student activities until 4 p.m., Friday, March 12th.
It uqs also disclosed this week that a special feature is being planned for Carni-Gras that will surpass any venture ever attempted at this school. The only thing missing is two very brave volunteers. Qualifications are elastic and applicants should get in touch with any Pep Club officer.
All organizations who have not already entered are urged to plan their entries as soon as possible. Organizations should also have representatives present at the
next Pep Club meeting this Monday at 2 p.m. in the North Lounge in Eaton Hall. It was announced by Mr. Norman “Chink” Whitten that there will be help available for those needing it—especially sororities.
This year's theme “where the fun is” is being used as a guide in planning this year’s celebration. The goal of the Carni-Gras Committee is to provide a good time for everyone involved not just a few. but the whole campus and their guests.
This includes President Henry King Stanford who plans to attend again this year. Last year he ‘hit’ just about every booth and ride on the grounds.
Construction is slated to begin a week from Monday March 15th and the student union staff will be on hand to lend advice. In addition there will be a carpenter and an electrician on duty to help the entrants construct their booths safely. Any organization with questions is urged to attend the Pep Club meeting this Monday to clear them up and avoid later confusion.
