Women
In Sports
With SALLY L. HIRSHBERG
WRA's Summer program will
officially close with next Friday
night's All-College Square Dance,
announced F. Doris Stevenson '44,
WRA publicity chairman.
The final golf match between
Delta Gammas and Thetas Monday
afternoon, and final volleyball
game between Thetas and Ath
West next Tuesday night, will
conclude the season's intramural
program.
We wish to congratulate the en
tire WRA organization for the way
it has adapted, its activities to the
convenience' and wishes of the
coeds, and for fitting its program
with so much success into a com
plicated Summer semester sched
ule.
With the accumulation of 14
points, up to date, towards WRA's
intramural cup award, Ath. East
is leading all other intramural un
its. This total includes 8 points
for first and second places in arch
ery, 3 points for second place in
tennis.
Kappas and Ath West are tied
for second place with scores of 5
points each; Kappas for a first
place in tennis and Ath West with
top poistion in mushball.
There is still plenty of oppor
tunity fo rother sororities and dor
mitory units to gain a leading po
sition and even surpass the cur
rent favorites. A little of that "all
out, fighting" spirit could, per
haps, turn the trick.
According to 4Vfiss Stevenson,
regular intramural activities will
not be resumed until November,
as an extensive program to deter
mine All-College and interclass
champions in golf, tennis, archery,
and swimming will initiate WRA's
fall program.
Every coed in the College is elig
ible to compete for these titles. So,
come on, gals, sharpen up your
battle axes over the vacation and
test their keeness in WRA's All-
College competition. -

THE DAILY COLLEGIAN
Zang Calls Advisers
To avoid overlapping of effort
in the freshman women's orienta
tion, Miss• Ruth H. Zang, assistant
to the dean of women, has issued
letters to heads of coed organiza
tions, inviting them to a meeting
to discuss a freshman schedule.
Set for 7 p. m. Thursday, August
20, the meeting's main purposes
will be to define definite areas of
orientation, to draw up a tentative
calendar for the first semester, and
to give each group a specific part
in the program.
"We want to be able to guaran
tee a few free evenings for the be
wildered freshmen who 'will be
glad for a chance to catch their
breath," Miss Zang said.
With approximately 500 new
women entering the College, it
will be necessary to unify all ori
entation work, the assistant dean
pointed out.
Campus organizations which
will be contacted by Miss Zang in
clude Alpha Lambda Delta, fresh
man women's honorary; Cwens,
sophomore women's honorary; El
len H. Richards Club, junior home

mass meeting committee; fresh

ordered to active duty, and will
receive commissions upon comple
tion of their Officer Candidate
School training.
As an aid to students intending
to apply for enlistment in the
Army Enlsted Reserve, Galbraith
released the following instruc
tions:
1. Students should obtain ap
plications for enlistment in the
Army Enlisted Reserve from the
deans of their respective schols.
2. Parental consent must be ob
tained in all instances where the
applicant is under 21 years of age.
3. All applications must be fill
ed out entirely and taken to the
dean of the school in which the
student is enrolled.. The dean will
then review the application, and
present it with his recommenda
tion to Col Edward D. Ardery,
head of the ROTC Department.
4. Upon receiving the applica
tion, Col. Ardery will interview
the prospective enlistee. If the
candidate measures up to the

Practical Ideals
Deserve A Try
Printed every morning in the
masthead of The Daily Collegian
is its official slogan, "For A Bet
ter Penn State,'
Believing that ideals should de
velop into realities, we offer a few
ways by which we think coeds
could help to build a better cam
pus.
1. Institute a more efficient
checking system in Grange Dormi
tory.
2. WSGA House of Representa
tives—sponsor a bandage-rolling
unit, in cooperation with the State
College Red Cross.
3. Eliminate duplication in
transfer and freshman orientation.
Have plans so detailed that each
Big Sister, each group, will know
its specific duties.
4. Face the fact that coed or
ganizations waste a lot of time
with activities outmoded by the
war.
5. WSGA Senate—set an exam
ple in eliminating activities by dis
continuing the annual dance for
the duration. (More money for
scholarships, we hope.)
6. Allow women to leave dinner
by tables when
. they are finished
eating—or at least shove the time
limit back to 6:15.
7. Enforce dormitory quiet
hours. At
_present, victrolas,
screaming in halls, and incessant
laughter 'discourage attempts to
study.
8. Utilize the petition system to
make WSGA nomination and com
mittee appointments. It sounded
like a good idda when inaugurated
last year. Why not try it—in WRA
as well as in WSGA?
standards required for enlistment,
he will be sent to the dispensary
for a preliminary physical exam
ination.
5. Upon completion of the ex
amination, the student's "work
sheet" or complete physical rec
ord will be returned to the ROTC
Department. If the student suc
cessfully passes his physical, he
will immediately fill out final en
listment papers and be formally
sworn into the Army Enlisted Re
serve.
6. Col. Ardery will then notify
the student's local draft board of
his enlistment, and the student
will Ahen be out of the jurisdiction
of the Selective Service.
Galbraith added that exceptions
may possibly be made in the cases
of some applicants who have minor
physical defects, to permit them
to enlist through special waivers.
SATURDAY, AUGUST 15, 1942
Frosh To Fill
2 Men's Halls
Two hundred coeds of the enter
ing Fall freshman class will live in
Jordan and Irvin Halls, according
to Miss Charlotte E. Ray, dean of
women. Approximately 100 trans
fer women will occupy Watts Hall.
The tri-dortn arrangement is a
result of a recent announcement
from the President's offide. A
painting job will improve the for
mer boys' dorms for coed use.
In order that the new coeds can
live together, a large number of
the present freshman class now re
siding in McAllister Hall and
Women's Building will be moved
to upperclass dormitories, Miss
Ray stated.
It was announced that 13 town
dormitories will be used as coed
living quarters and others will be
added,
,pending further action.
Tentative plans include renova
tion of the McAllister Hall dining
room in order that a larger num
ber of womdn may be accommo
dated. Other campus women will
eat in the Sandwich Shop dining
commons, Miss Ray said.
Summer semester students will
not have to pay a room deposit for
the coming semester, since the fee
paid at the start of the present ses
sion covers that, Miss Nina M.
Bentley, assistant to the dean of
women, reminded coeds yester
day.
Alpha Epsilon Phi pledge class
entertained pledges.of other soror
ities at tea in Grange playroom
yesterday afternoon.
Zeta Tau Alpha pledges will en
tertain at a party at the home of
Marilyn Tanner '45 at 3 p. m. to
morrow.
