THE PERFECT PIZZA
SALLY'S
WE DELIVER AD 7-2373
By INEZ ALTHOUSE
The original WSGA rule con
cerning drinking provided that:
"Drinking by women students is
forbidden by the College and
WSGA which reserves the right
to refer cases to the Judicial Com
mittee and the College adminis
tration."
Senate felt student opinion
should be obtained before a defi
nite step was taken, and a com
mittee was set up to consider a
questionnaire concerning the mod
ified rule and possible student
enforcement.
The questionnaire would be dis
tributed to all women students.
Results from this poll would be
considered in future discussions
and recommendations for a con
crete rule.
Discuss Checker System
Discussion centered around the
possibility of a system of checkers
to enforce the rule. No agreement
was reached on who these check
ers would be or where the power
of enforcement would lie.
From the questionnaire Senate
will attempt to learn student
opinion on the rule and whether
they would favor student enforce
ment.
Joyce Shusman and Patricia
McLauchlin are co-chairmen of
the committee. Others on the
committee are Carolyn Cunning
ham, Patricia Lehr, Patricia Dick
inson, and Patricia Ellis.
Convocation to Be Held
WSGA Convocation will be held
at 7 p.m. Monday in McElwain
lounge. Helen Schleman, dean of
women at Purdue University, will
be guest speaker. A dinner for old
and new Senate members will be
held at 5:30 p.m. Monday in Mc-
Elwain Hall. A short reception
will follow the Convocation.
Senate passed a rule stating that
any student may turn in another
for line-jumping in Thompson
Hall, and that the violator will
receive a blackmark for the of
fense. Two students, however,
must sign the slip reporting the
violation, and the slip will be
given to the hostess in charge,
who will give the blackmark. This
rule was recommended by Fresh
man Council, and will apply only
to Thompson Hall, since it was
felt that the line-jumping prob
lem existed there only.
Joyce Shusman, chairman of
Judicial, reported that members of
Judicial will be chosen by a
screening board after applications
on printed forms have been sub
mitted by interested students.
This system will follow that used
to select candidates for WSGA

'Danny Grads' Aid
Religious Programs
Each year a group of college women, not more than one froi
each state, are selected by the Danforth Foundation to receive Dan
forth Fellowships for religious work at colleges and universities
throughout the country
The Foundation chooses women who have shown

egon, Mich.
Attends College •
• In September the foundation
sends the graduates to college and
university campuses throughout
the nation and supports them for .
one year. The graduate is sent to
a campus at least 1000 miles from
her home. At the end of the year
she is under no obligations to
the foundation and may choose
whatever position she desires.
Before a Danforth graduate is
placed in a college or university,
the institution must show a defi
nite need for the graduate, and
the Foundation must feel that the
graduate will be welcomed and
can be of service to the school
and the students. A particular
school usually has a graduate for
only two consecutive years.

Ihru the
Looking Glass
Looks like the only ill wind
that blows no good is not just
contained in an alto sax—any
upright student can now tell
you that from an oblique
position, of course. We're, not
just hanging .on to our hats,
but our steel-tipped ball point
multi-colored .p e n s cause
you can hardly get them no
more! But there's. always
something to get at ETHEL'S
and today , it's a Susanette.
And away we go!—
Not layette, coquette or An
toinette, but Susanette;. a kind
of whittled down version of
those revolving serving trays
that lets everyone get their
fingers in at one time. But
this is a flat, 8" diameter and
makes any tray a lazy susan,
revolves a radio for clearer
reception (or if it's a clock
job, keeps you farther away
from the alarm), heatproof,
scratchproof—it's a great boon
to scrabblers (saving on
words) who can't read upside
down. All this, and 2 tickets
to next week's performance
for $1.50.
Take the guess out of
bidding
with the bidder's digest that's
a rock and salvation to any
one who's ever gotten kicked
in the shins under the card
table by one's bridge partner.
Neatly indexed are opening
bids and responses that will
ultimately lead to a better
game (and less daggers across
the table), makes a nice gift
or give yourself a present—
aw, come on, you deserve it,
after studying a whole hour
for a Soc 8.8.
Be good to the
Bride-to-Be
and give her a natural-col
ored linen toaster and mixer
set—gayly painted with Swe
dish prints, and there are tea
towels to match, if your bank
account is bulging, you can
really do it up in style. They
are rather unique and a bit
more interesting than plastic.
Gee, wish someone would
think of ways to spend my
money like I do yours. See
you at ETHELS.
