WRA Contributes To War
Fund Drive ; Plans Picnic
The Executive Board of WRA
voted last night at their weekly
meeting to donate $lOO to the
National War Fund Drive, accord
ing to Peggy Good, WRA publicity
chairmen. Student organizations as
well as the student body were
asked to contribute to the fund,
and WRA's donation will be a
great help toward achieving the
goal set at the outset of the drive.
Because of the conflict between
WRA's regular meeting and sur
gical dressings class it was decided
to change the time from 7:45 p.m.
to 7 p.m. This will allow the Ex
ecutive Board members to attend
surgical dressings after the meet
ing.
Continuing its program for stu
dent recreation ,WRA is planning
a novel party, in the form of an
All-College hot dog roast, under
the sponsorship of the
will
Club. The Weiner roast will be
held in Hort Woods at 6:30 p.m.
this Sunday, and is under the
direction of Virginia Steinhauer,
president of the Outing Club. En
tertainment will include a general
sing, and despite ration points the
Outing Club reports no shortage of
food. Tickets for the outing are 25
cents, and students planning to gb
are asked to sign .up at the Student
Union desk before noon on Satur
ogy. l 4
elaynight this S - aturday will be
under the direction of Dorothy
Wallace, and it is open as before
to all coeds at White Hall after
7 p.m. Refreshments will be, serv
ed, and White Hall facilities in
cluding swimming, bowling, bas
ketball, fencing, and ping pong are
open.
The liquor famine ought to make
New Year resolutions easy.
