An ipterw4ing, study of a new variation of
what was formerly a traditionized housepart.,-
weekend will. be climaxed in a few ,days that
.of ithe combining of Soph Hop and houseparty
~4iates.
Far traapar „years, houseparty dances consisted
of fox:mal snd. jriforrnal dances on Friday and
Saturday night of that weekend. Some
,Ifrater-
,iiti:es exchanged dances .on these .evenings. ,How-
;ever, :inserting .of Soph Hop into ,the 'house
- vary t we(lkend, ; scheduled for nett Friday and
Saturday,
.has ,raised an ,unusual .situation.
Fraternities began to bicker among themselves.
Sonia oiaAntained that the addition of Soph Hop
could tax ; the pudgets of individual members and
discourage pe appearance of alumni at the
dances. Others refuted this by stating that the
)lousepartypph Hop duo would attract as many
alumni members, and that the combination of
two weekends 'svoulii save money for individual
,ocmibors. ilddicion, they said, a more balanced.
V. , eek , qnd with o big name orchestra wee hi please

Two .factions arose About half of the fra
ternities .robelled and voted to hold house dances

Faculty
Always anxious to do his part, 'ever striving
for better relations between students and faculty,
Mr. Zang, of the Sociology dePartment, is one of
Penn State's most ardent boosters of this spirit.
But we DON'T like the way he goes about it. To
be specific, we can hardly approve of his threat
to his classes concerning. returned blue books.
Mr. Zang declares that he doesn't want to see
anybody approach him with a blue book and
question him about the grade or the problems.
If they do. Mr. Zang will "conscientiously" go
over the exam again and find additional mis
takes and consequently lower the grade even
more. Tut, tut, sir. Mr. Frank Flynn's com
mittee would not approve.

YOU may never have heard of a K .carrier
circuit, ;but it has ,often heard you,
It's a Bell Telephone .Laboratories develop
ment by which two pairs of wires in parallel
cables can carry as .3nany as twelve separate
conversations at the same time!
K carrier circuits are being.built into many
miles of Long Distance cables. This is one
of .the ways we have of adding a lot
of long ,circuits in .a hurry to lueet
the needs of national defense.
