Coronation Ball
Date Changed
The Coronation Ball will be
held in White Hall on Friday,
May 11, from 9 to 12 p.m. Gene
Magill's orchestra will play for
the informal dance. Tickets are
$1.50 and may be obtained at
Student Union or at the door.
The dance, sponsored by the
Women's Student Government
Association as part of May Week
end festivities, originally was
scheduled to be held in the West
D6rmitory lounge on Ma y 12.
However, the dorm council pro
tested that they had not known
that WSGA planned to charge
admission. The policy of the
council is to permit use of the
lounge for free dances only;
therefore the ball had to be trans
ferred to White Hall. WSGA of
ficers said that the organization
could not affOrd to sponsor the
dance without charging admis-.
sion.
In the past the May Queen was
crowned at the ball. Because the
dance has been changed from
Saturday to Friday night this
policy his to be altered.
Barbara Klopp, chairman of the
dance committee, said that plans
are being considered for a mock
crowning. No definite plans have
been made.

Leonides
Calls Unit
Plan Good
The unit plan for choosing
Leonides Council representatives
was termed successful by the
council at its retreat Saturday
afternoon.
The council felt that it was
effective and could be left un
changed. Inactive units with only
a few independent women may
be combined. The , systern enables
the women to have personal con
tact with their Leonides repre
sentatives.
Minor Changes
Leonides felt that it could
make some minor changes in its
election code which it copied this
year from the Woman's Student
Government Association. A nom
inating committee will prepare a
slate for future elections and the
date will be changed so that it
will not be sandwiched between
WSGA and All-College elections
as it was this year.
Election results were not pub
lished this year since the council
was using the WSGA election
code. It was decided that the
council members would take the
question back to the dorms. The
results of the poll will be an
nounced later this week.
Leonides Explained
A pamphlet will be sent to all
incoming freshmen which will
outline and explain the functions
of Leonides. Letters will be sent
to independent upperclass wom
en telling of the benefits of Leo
nides.
More activities will be co
sponsored with the Panhellenic
council and the Association of
Independent Men.
At Monday's meeting Louise
Carey reported that Leonides
and the Barons will co-sponsor a
booth for Spring Week.
Each living unit will receive
15 cents per semester per capita
to be used for entertainment. The
council also voted to buy a gavel.
Business Ed Honorary

Mary Stella, instructor in busi
ness education and sponsor of Pi
Omega Pi, business education

that the campus chapter has been

ganization.

ceremony to be held May 14 will
