Y. co_edd, The calendar says that it is April, but the Gamma Phis seem to think it is June . . otherwise why would there be so many weddings? To begin with, Jean Butz was married to Richhrd Rathmell, senior living in Beaver House, in the State College Presbyterian Church Saturday afternoon. Jeannie, a Gamma Phi alum, wore a gown of white satin and net with the traditional train, a fingertip veil, and carried a white orchid and prayer book. She was attended by sorority sisters, Sara Achenbach and Lois Wyman, and the 'bridegroom's sister in-law. Dick's brother served as his only attendant. Another "sis ter" of the bride, Ann Reese, sang three numbers preceding the cere mony. More Gamma Phi Brides Arid that isn't all by any means . Gamma Phi Jackie Irvin said "I, do" to Edward Sullivan, of New Brunswick, N. J., at the State College Presbyterian Church yes terday afternoon. Jackie was at tended by Ann Berkhimer and Donna Outman, also Gamma Phis. The bridegroom is now attending Johns Hopkins Medical School. And the day before Easter, Nan ' Bowman win take the vows With Walt Dutton, SAE, in Bethlehem. Nan will have as 'bridesmaids Sally Pollard and Alice Miller. Both bride and bridegroom are students of the College. Perhaps there's some' truth in the saying _"a Gamma Phi always gets her man." A Good Time for Ail There were post-Spring Noc-• turne parties galore, but the top two seeni to-be the SPE dance and the Delta Sigs' "Sailors' Brawl." The SPEs held more, or less of an open-house horibring their newly returned veteral brothers, and the NTROTC Band supplied music for dancing. The list of guests would be far too long - s o we'll say that there were lots of people there, and from all reports, EVERYONE had a good time. De- Piournalism : -No, : 4onger For 'Men anly'-41levithian Lar r y Newman, promotion manager. of International -News Service, probably sees -eye to eye with Alexander - Pope who. said "Woman is at best a contradic tion," but in recent interview he Carried the issue to a climax when he endorsed women jour nalists as "the toughest competi tion .anran-van find in. the news paper business." NaMes Women Journalists . "NeWspaper,wOrk isn't• a man's game ,anymore," said .Mr. New man, . who addressed journalism students , at the College recently. .particularly Sonja: To "mare. of the - New York Herald- Trilbune,•- Ruth Cowan of Asso ciated Press, Ann Springer . .of United Press, and Lee Carson of International NeWs Service. The latter, - according ta•lMr..NeWman, made the best. woman reporter on the Western front during World War -IL "During the war, the opposition given by women to work on the copy desk and to do general re fiorting broke. down barriers and prejudices," said Mr. Newman, with 17 - years of neWspaper work! to his credit: "The jcAb' situation! THR.COLUMIAN 20ri.1 Slowe corations highlighted the Sailor Delta Sig dance, from the waves on the terrace to the signal flags floating from the ceilings and the winking lighthouse in the corner. Guests received white sailor hats, and the many who danced to the music of the Campus Owls all seemed to agree that everyone had just "gobs" of fun. Varied Notes Alpha Xi Delta observed Founder's Day Sunday with a din_ ner at the State College Hotel in the evening. Phi Kappa Psi and Phi Delta Theta both: entertained Gamma Phi Beta at parties re cently. Ditto the Phi Kappa Sigs for the Chi Os. Zeta Tau Alpha pledges elected Frances Welker, pledge president; Marilyn Tohms, secretary; and Edna Gales, secre tary-treasurer.

And in closing-there's the story of two coeds who lost heavy bets Saturday night when betting on the outcome of the Army-Penn State lacrosse game. They were both of the opinion that the score was 6-3, insisting that they should knowisince they were both there.. Someone - should tell these inno cent girls that every lacrosse game has two halve - S. ' may tighten up somewhat,'! ,fie said, '".but from now ,on it won't be any harder fora . woman to get a job than for a.man." Aside from the fact that Mr. Newman. -thinks a Woman makes , the newspaper . office more at tractive (!), he said. that there is great opportunity • for women in the - crime field of reporting. A woman will confide _to another woman, he emphasized, and feinme fatale reporters have been particularly successful in this field for that very reason. Women's Page Outmoded "Women's pages throughout the country are outmoded," he de clared. "They are not filling the demands of their readers today, for women of this day end age want to read.about politics and, economics just as much as men, except that they are especially interested in dhow these questions concern them. Price ceilings and regulations on nylon stdekings :are good examples." Another . man's domain turns into a woman's as well. "You can't even dilye them, of the copy desk!" • declared the noted newspaperman. Cwens To Tap Coeds May 5 Cwens, women's sophomore hon orary, will tap May 5. .announces Mary Lou. Waygood, president.
