PENNSYLVANIA Flashcard Organization Proposed The University Student Cen tennial Committee last night vot ed to recommend a flashcard sysH tern which would require fresh man participation. Robert Heck, chairman of the committee, will recommend the plan to Samuel Moyer, freshman class president. The plan suggests that the freshman class organize the system and supervise the op eration during th e sophomore year, According to the recommenda tion, Delphi, sophomore men's hat society, and Cwens, sophomore women's hat society, will be ask ed to supervise and coordinate the organization of the students in the flashcard section. The Centennial Committee pre viously had recommended that a frashcard section be set up in the senior section. According to this plan juniors would apply for the section at the end of the academic year and be members of the flash card section in their senior year. It would be counted as a minor activity. Problems Encountered' Two problems were encounter ed by the committee in trying to work out this plan. Past experi ence showed members of th e committee that few if any per sons attending a game would be able to see the flashcard cheers. Because of the seating arrange ment at Beaver Field, it is diffi cult to see flashcards in the sen ior section. The committee also had diffi culty in finding a group to take over the organization of the ac tivity. With the flashcard section in the middle of the horseshoe it is expected that most of the spec (Continued on page twelve) $26 Rod and Coccus Club Textbook scholar ships, Betty Clugeton and Doris McHin er)" : $l6O Arthur C.
