piled in a scrap book, and that
they will be presented to President
Hetzel when the committee meets
with him to discuss the plans.
The freshman senator, Elizabeth
Ann Berkhimer, brought a . plea
from Freshman Council that the
freshman women be allowed 7 o'-
clotk dating privileges during the
week, instead of the .5:36 dead
line now imposed upon them.
However, WSGA rejected the, pro
posal on the grounds that below
grades were not in yet, and thus
it was too early in the semester to
determine whether the privllege
should be granted.
It was suggested by Joan Huber
town senator, that action might
be taken on the Collegian editorial
of three weeks ago, calling for the
establishment of a student 'com
mittee to aid in the post war re-.
organization plans for the Liber
al Arts school. _
Gertrude G. Rosen president of
WSGA, said that the matter
would be referred to Cabinet.
Marguerite Susanin was t ap
pointed treasurer of WSGA for
the summer semester and Patricia
Trester was appointed Indepen
dent Women Senator. •
