Counseling Day
Will Be Held
By MI Council
Mineral Industries Student
Council made plans Tuesday night
to participate in a counseling day
for high school students, sponsored
by the College of Mineral Indus
tries,
The counseling day will be held
from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Saturday in
Mineral Industries and Mineral
Science.
Members of the council will
conduct an information booth in
each of the buildings. Don Crago.
junior in petroleum and natural
gas engineering from Barnesboro,
is chairman of the project. Coun
cil members will answer ques
tions about the College of Min
eral Industries and inform high
school students of the available
scholarships offered.
Letters have been sent out to
high school guidance counselors
and advisers and students who
will be enrolled as freshmen, in
the College of Mineral Industries
for the fall semester.
The counseling day will replace
the annual open house sponsored
by the College. A survey con
ducted last semester by Dr. John
J. Schanz, assistant professor of
mineral economics, showed that
the open house had little influ
ence on a student's decision to
enroll in the College of Mineral
Industries. •
The survey was conducted
among juniors, sophomores, and
freshmen, presently enrolled in
the College.
Dr. H. Beecher Charmbury, pro
fessor of mineral preparation, and
chairman of the Mineral Indus
tries enrollment committee, said
that no guided tours or elaborate
displays have been planned for
the counseling day.

I CA's welcomed her with empty
coffee percolators.
Then for days she fought fierce
ly to get over the DT's. And all
the while there was this awfully
kind boy with the soft blue eyes
who cared for her and comforted
her. He had a bald head which
made him self-conscious but he
was wonderful. His name? Eg
bert. And he didn't belong to any
house on the outside world. He
was a nothing.
Our story conies peacefully to
a close. Trixie and Egbert got
hitched. On the outside once again
she could face the world—a con
firmed CA. We can see her still
on Ralph Mann's popular TV
show, "What's So Special About
Your Life?" as she bravely sang
the Drinking Song, danced down
a long aisle between smiling
masses of age-old buddies.
