Under The Hats Chimes Youngest Women’s Hat Society On Campus This is the third in the series "Under the Hats" about the campus hat societies and their activities. By JOHN PAKKANEN Chimes, national junior women’s honorary, is the youngest national women’s hat society on campus. The name Chimes was adapted by four Eastern colleges, meet ing here in 1947. The name is derived from the chimes in Orton hall at Ohio State university which was used in the initiation of new members there, President Nancy McClain explained. Two Combine Last year, the Eastern Chimes, consisting of Penn State, Ohio State, Temple university and West Virginia university, com bined with Key and Scroll, a similar Western college group, re sulting in the present national or ganization. Penn State is the national head-1 quarters of the 13 chapters that grew up out of the merger, Miss McClain said. There are 19 members of Chimes this year. However, Miss McClain went on, there is no set limit as to the number of mem bers. A selection committee is now going through the activity files of fourth and fifth semester coeds in the dean of women’s office to choose prospective tappees, she said. Qualifications for the or ganization provide for a .3 grade point above the all-College stu-j dent average/, leadership, and! service to the College. Participa-j tion in two major activities is stressed for membership in the' group for membership. Society Symbols Symbols of the society are, flower, yellow rose; colors, gold, white and bronze; and badge, a small golden bell with a cluster of three pearls as a clapper. Chimes is one of the most ac tive societies on campus. Meet ings have increased from two a month to regular weekly ones, Miss McClain said. The campus ‘bells’ are respon sible for the decoration of one of the four floats used by the Miss Penn State finalists during the Spring week parade. A large, time-consuming pro ject of the group is the checking of files in the dean of women’s office to correct “dead mail” ad dresses and forward the letters to girls who have moved. The local post office sends the “dead mail” to the dean’s office. Chimes Activities Other activities of the junior hatwomen are to orient sopho more women transfers, hold ori entation along with the other hat societies of all new woman stu dents during the fall and spring, help sell engagement calendars for the Penn State Alumni asso- ciation, distribute magazines in the lobbies of the women’s dormi tories, usher at football games and together with Parmi Nous plan pep rallies, watch ballot boxes during women’s election, help make posters, invitations and act as hostesses at WSGA and [campus functions. Chimes mem bers served as hostesses at the re ception given President Eisen hower in White hall during the inaugural ceremonies last year. A new tradition of the group is an annual tea for Chimes alum nae sometime during the school year. As in other hat societies, the members are active for only one year and then become alumnae. The campus chapter, as the na tional headquarters publishes a quarterly magazine, Keynotes, the name derived from the Key in Key and Scroll and the implied notes.from the name Chimes. Betty Jo Hill, editor of the Key ! notes, is the only active on the national committee, all other of ficers are required to be alumnae. The editorship was made into a national position at last year’s national conference. Other officers are Grace Por rello, vie e-preside'nt; Eleanor Griffith, secretary; Betty Anders, historian; Margaret Betts, treas urer; Rose Eifert, senior advisor; and. Miss Patricia Thompson, ad -visor. In view of the many ac tivities that the Chimes have amassed in their., few years of life, they seem certain of a long pealing future.
