We the Women
By Frances Keeney
"Import Weekend" is over, and
a drowsy calmness like a settling
fog sours over the woebegone fra
ternity man as he drags himself
to a sleepy lecture in Sparks after
which he plops himself out on his
own soft bed, and spends the rest
of the day under the protecting
care of Morpheus.
The "import" after she is safely
returned to her home has so much
to talk about from the power of
the State football team to the min
ute description of the fraternity
dances that she doesn't feel the
effects until a week after she
leaves this peaceful burg.
Recuperation Sure
But within a month all partici
pants should be recuperated, that
is if they skip Pitt Weekend, and
be ready for the "old routine"
again. But no sooner was the last
tender farewell given the "im
ports," when coeds started worry
ing about telephones, eating and
bluebooks. It seems those coeds
who moved up to the Home Eco
nomics Home Management houses
are having difficulties finding a
dining hall on campus that will
feed them. The Houses are not
quite ready to handle the new
turn-over of coeds, and the Dining
Mills on campus say they're pay
ing to eat at the Management
houses. Maybe some of the fra
ternities have some left-overs !
5051 Operators
Coeds arg becoming more dis
gusted with the 5051 telephone
operators. Even if they are new,
it wouldn't hurt to be a bit more
courteous to people using the fa
cilities of 5051.
But these problems are swamp
ed in the midst of mid-terms, re
ports due, and trying to catch up
on the weekend's shut-eye. Even
Pitt Weekend looms as a night
mare for many students, with the
result that the Athletic Office will
probably be busy refunding tick
ets. But cheer up, there's still a
few months before the next
Houseparty!
