I tVe the Women
4 'trances —Keeney
We dislike the idea of discus
sing subjects which are contin
ually hashed over in the editorial
page, but on this occasion we feel
justified in talking about one of
their favorite topics—student par
ticipation at mass meetings.
Tonight, coeds from every class
are invited, and urged, to attend
the WSGA-WRA mass meeting
in 121 Sparks at 6:30 p.m. At this
meeting girls will be nominated
for 1949-50 WSGA and WRA of
fices.
Every Undergraduate
The Women's Student Govern
ment Association and Women's
Recreation Association are com
posed of every undergraduate co
ed enrolled in the College. As in
all organizations of such a large
membership a governing body
must be selected to coordinate the
activities and regulate the actions
of the group. For this purpose
WSGA and WRA officers are
chosen.
In addition to the president,
vice-president, secret ar y and
treasurer of WSGA, each class
and independent and town wo
men are represented by a sena
tor on the WSGA Senate. These
are the girls which you will nom-
Mate tonight and elect later on
this week. These are the girls
which set up the rules to which
you as undergraduates are liable.
Representative Nominations
To secure representative nom
inations and to eliminate any
clique action, it is important for
coeds to take an interest in their
athletic and campus government.
If any of you are displeased
when the final nominations slate
is presented at the primary elec
tions on Friday, remember you
have only your own apathy to
blame.
House
The House of Representa
tives will meet in 121 Sparks
at 8:30 p.m. today at the mass
meeting of WSGA and WRA
nominations instead of in the
WSGA room in White Hall at
8:15 as previously announced.
Fraternity Houses
Adopt Bold Look
In New Decor
No self-respecting man wants
to let the women get ahead of
him. In self-defense he adopted
the "Bold Look" to combat the
"New Look."
and
and
all-
But now the men have gone
one step fur t her. The "Bold
Look" is no longer confined to
men's wear, for the latest thing
at Penn State is the "Bold Look"
fraternity house.
The Phi Sigma Kappa house is
the most recent example of this
experiment. The library now
wears dark green walls topped by
a chocolate brown ceiling, the
paneled ceilings of the dining and
living rooms are also dark green.
To add a brighter note, the living
room walls were painted a shell
pink, while the dining room and
front hall walls sport a canary
yellow.
First to go out for the "Bold
Look", as reported in one of last
fall's Collegians, was the Pi Kap
pa Alpha house. Its decor is dra
matic shades of green, pink, or
ange, and fushia contrasting to
the dark brown woodwork.
The Phi Kappa Sig house has
gone in for the "Bold Look" in a
small way. At the beginning of
the semester they splashed their
two coatrooms with bright pink.
Sigma Phi Sigma
Sigma Phi Sigma entertained
Delta Zeta at a tea dance at the
chapter house Sunday afternoon.
