The second in the series of
Army-Navy basketball tilts ended
vrith the Navy cagers avenging
rheir 28-20 defeat at the hands of
I.he Army basketballers, 21-20. The
s>ext Army-Navy encounter has
been scheduled for Thursday at 8
y'.m., according to Mary G. Long
necker, WRA intramural chair
man.
Peggy Northrup, Navy forward,
copped the scoring honors with 13
0 joints, and Alice Burwell who ac-
Army forward, who scored nine.
Navy scorers include Northrup
vrith 13, Mary A. Jennings with
four, Alice Hooper with two and
Charlotte Spangler with two.
Northrup, Harriet Richards and
.Jennings played a well-coordinated
i;ame chock full of quick, well
timed passes.
The remaining members of the
Navy team include Guards Betty
Wolfram, Dorothy Huck, Eleanor
Wills, Fran Angle, and Forward
Nmmie Northrup. Angle and Wills
were especially good in the guard
spots.
Becky Walker, Army forward
who knocked off nine points, was
high scorer for the team, followed
by Helen Hooper who tallied five
pints, and Alice Burwell who ac
counted for the remaining four.
Helen Hooper, Army forward,
surprised this spectator with a
series of very difficult shots which
were made under, at times 4 very
adverse conditions. Several of her
shots, however, were uncounted
because of the referee’s whistle
which sounded out intermittently
through the game.
Army guards include Mottie
Haverstick, who played a fast
■game marred by almost a fatal
number of fouls; Adele Levin,
Dorcas Newcomer, and Gloria Mc-
Kinley who played her usual delib
erate game.

Army camp appearances best of

When Ted Clauss graduated last
December, Mellot and Hunter de

We, Women
They’re Homeless;
Why Dateless Too? :
This moving business isn’t ias
remote as we mav think. It is oUr 1 '
problem, too, in that we have
helped share fraternity houses lor
years. •
Coeds at fraternity houses haye
become a College tradition and it
is on the verge of being broken if
we don’t take some definite stand; :
Now, it’s our turn.
The prudent advice of one camp
us publication is that we start dat
ing the house where nothing dras
tic is being done to break up the
dearly beloved fraternity circled
We strongly disagree with this,
advice as any solution to the prob
lem. We’re sure that fellows who
have been offering us their hos
pitality would not be too pleased
about such a suggestion.
The men are homeless;, why
suggest they be dateless as well? -
There is an answer and it isn’t
that we stop dating these “war -
orphans.” Here is the chance, at ,
long last, for sorority, houses and
dormitories to justify their' exis
tences as something more than
mere living Units. Now is the time
for hall units to plan parties and
vie dances for weekends; and for
sororities to have open house! for
fraternity men Friday and Satur
day nights. Sorority radios are just
as convenient for. that Sunday
night “Lights Out” as fraternity,
ones. We must begin to. reverse
the old order to yield place--to"
the new one on campus. :.
In the- next hall . or ' sorority;
meeting a committee ' might-dm
chosen to plan these parties.-TheSe .
are “many women living in- dorm
itories and., sorority -houses who.
might capture, that old frateriiity
spirit by joining forces and really
getting to-know one another. In .
the past we have dated in many
different houses—here is ;an op
portunity to get together. - • ;
Right now, WSGA has the apart
ment problem, in mind. It need
not be a problem if we act wise-;
ly. Coeds can avoid "the issuance
of strict WSGA rulings- they
cope with' the situation as fairly,
as the men have and realize that •
these campus changes do not-: re--•
quire that we break rules .-.and
have new ones enforced. It-.would
be much wiser, for. our. -own;
good, if we met .the situation, witbuv
ideas- and . suggestions -to keep
things as they were: for. the: men.
.and for ourselves.
There are only a few .weeks at,
College for a majority--
of the men. Pooling our. spirit and:
originality could, help, .to. normalize -
these abnormal conditions. :u'
