squad.
Also on Tuesday the very

Teresa Sheehan led . the Mc-
Elwain A team to their first vic
tory. McElwain outscored the
Kappa Deltas 10 to 12.
The Alpha Gamma Deltas con

a squad out for the crown. The
high-scoring team led. by Bess
Kriner swamped the Chi Omegas
40 to 18.
On Wednesday the Delta Gam
mas won from the previously un
beaten Alpha Omicron Pi’s. Both
teams had tallied over their oppo

scores. This match turned out to
be a tight, low-scoring duel with
the Delta Gammas coming out on
top 23 to 15.

Hemlock Cottage. Marty Martin’s
16, points paced the winners to a
35 to 17 victory. \

Corner
By Commie Keller
Only five days remain during
which women students and
women’s organizations can con
tribute to the annual WSGA
Christmas Drive..
WSGA has set a goal of $6OO to
be gained through donations and
has computed that an approxi-
mate 30c from each woman
student would easily supply this
sum. Actually about $750 should
be available through this means
alone. •
Coeds, however, do not have to
contribute, the entire sum, for
such organizations as Gwens,
Chimes, Mortar Board and WRA
annually make donations.
In prevloutf years the goals set
by WSGA for this drive have not
been realized and the possibility
readily exists that the same per
formance may be shown by. the
indifference of coeds. ■■
That the proceeds of the drive
really benefit worthy organiza
tions should not be the question
, in deciding whether or not to con
tribute ;■ rather the question will
u .Whether or not coeds may
\ shake ' off their indifference to
walkmavfew steps, to contribute
and whether WSGA solicitors can
' take the time to successfully cam
paign for the drive.
i Responsibility for the success of
the drive , rests on both groups.
The challenge is presented and in
'five days time it will or will not,
he answer^,,
