thology,” will speak to the Belles
Lettres Club at 7:30 tonight in the
northeast lounge of Atherton.
Mrs. Masters teaches English at
Ogontz Center. Tonight's talk will
be based on questions which the
club will submit to her.
Knew Many Poets
Mrs. Masters was with her hus
band throughout the period when
he lived in New York City, and
she W3S closely associated with
the prominent New York poets
of the 1920’s and 30’s. Part of her
talk will deal with these poets
as she knew them.
One of the points Mrs. Masters
will consider is her husband’s at
titude towards both his own poe
try and the work of other poets.
She will discuss her husband’s
opinion of his most famous col
lection, “Spoon River Anthology,”
and why he considered it, despite
its popularity, to be one of his
important works.
Began at Ogonlx
She began her teaching career
at Ogontz Center before it was
made a University center, and
was retained on the faculty after
Ogontz became , part of the Uni
versity. Before her marriage to
Masters, she was a stage actress
in New York-
She has lectured during recent
years on her husband and the lit
erary scene of his day.
Tonight’s talk will be open to
the -public, and will be followed
by a discussion period.
IFC Grants-
(Continued from page one)'
caused by constant turnover of
buying personnel.
•It would prove to be less
work for fraternity treasurers be
cause the IFCPA manager would
check all bills and invoices.
•The plan would pull the cred
it rating of all fraternities up to
the credit rating of the associa
tion because all bills would be
promptly paid fay IFCPA.
Little Money to Be Saved
Phillabaum said he would not
guarantee a large financial saving
to fraternities, but could assure
them that they would definitely
not lose any money through the
plan. '
He passed out contracts at the
meeting which must be returned
by May 22.
, He said if at least 20 fraternities
do not join the association, it will
not go into operation in the fall.

Reading, has been elected presi
dent of Androcles, junior men’s

Finally finished our 14th and last sorority composite. A»
usual there is always one sorority which “seem* by
comparison outstanding for certain private reasons (w®
have to be nice to the other sororities!). W* so completely
enjoyed working with this group that the name TRION
will be added to the list of "Bermuda Contenders.**
And while we're at it for equally valid reasons let's add
Phi Sigma Sigma. Should either of these two sororities
be picked from the box, let them select in the same
manner a member of their group.
Concerning Bermuda ...
Customarily a Collegian staff member selects the winner
from a box.of names of the girls whose picture or nam®
appears in our column. This year two copies of a girl's
name will be placed in the box if her portrait is used in
our column, thus doubling her chances of selection. And
of course, names mentioned in this column in itself make!
a girl eligible. Points are cumulative as well.
The figure following the names below indicates th®
number of copies of the girls name to be placed in th»
cigar box. If you detect an error, please notify ut.
A few more names may be added between now and
the end of May, when the drawing will be held,

of the lovely things about June is that many of us get
to leave State College. So to define controversial statement*
like this, we offer as testimony:
Kosher pickles are so hard to get.
So is air-conditioning in local theatres (grapevine data
—a crated "cold-maker" is now sifting behind one of
the theatres.)
Occasionally being mistaken for a student by the local
gendarme this can be a costly error-to us, a $15.00
fine for being a half hour late in removing old licensa
plates from car is ridiculously steep—especially when
the new plates were seen by arresting gendarme. Oh
well, perhaps because it was late, officer mistook us
for students. HEIL DER COLONEII l >. continued next
week. -
We don't intend to offend anyone but half page ads in
local paper depicting a big TO% price reduction is
offensive to anyone's intelligence!
Don't step on one toe when,it's easy to crunch them a 11,., m
Except for one or two acts, why must May Day Festivities
be as routine as they were 9 years ago when we saw our first
one? What happened to all the color and gaiety it should
have had. Surely originality isn't that hard to locate. This is
a far cry from what we've seen at Universities half this size.
Doesn't anyone ever consult the art department?
