LA Council See Page 4 !PiKA Given Two Week Social Pro Two weeks social probation and eight weeks board of control pro bation for Pi Kappa Alpha was approved yesterday afternoon by the subcommittee on discipline of the Senate Committee on Stu dent Affairs. The recommendation for the action came last week from the Interfraternity Council Board of Controls because the fraternity (had violated a regulation of the IFC pre-initiation practices code. Pledges Sent for Waste Paper Richard Shillinger, board chair man, said that last semester four [pledges of Pi Kappa Alpha were [sent out in the early hours of the morning to gather waste paper as a penalty for untidy rooms and [for not studying. The students [were apprehended taking paper from campus disposal facilities by jthe campus patrol.

It'seems that the breath_of spring which touched the campus yesterday, plus the added impetus of a rather wild party, had filled him with more thap his usual energy. It came to the Lion early in the morning that he could fly. He an nounced to the noisy group in the den that he 'was the King of [Beasts, and that jthe King of [Beasts can do any thing, and consequently he saw not reason why he could not fly. Good weather was predicted for his recovery, however. Today should be fair, with clear skies. The high is predicted at 34, with a low tomorrow night of between 20 and 25.
