Dean Lipp said her job was
completely different from that of

because of the change in the type

She said today’s students are

What changes would she like

Dean Lipp said she feels wo
men’s hours and especially fresh
men hours are too early. "Friday
and Saturday night hours should
be the same for everybody,” she
said.
"Juniors and senior women
should be in whenever the lock

Council Debates
New Program
A motion was made at the Bus
iness Administration Stud en t
Council meeting Wednesday to in
clude non-senior council members
in the pre-registrktion program
organized for seniors in the Col
lege ef Business Administration.
The suggestion wall be discussed
with Dr. William m. Hench, head
®f the college’s, pre-registration
program,, before the council takes
further action on the motion Oct.
7.
Discussion revealed a difference
of opinion on the advisability of
including the 13 non-senior coun
cil members in the program.
Several council members felt it
•would increase incentive to run
for council positions and would
provide a reward for time put into
the activity.
Other members disagreed, say
ing pre-registration was intended
to be a special privilege for sen
iors. They added that such an
action would redu:e the number
«f class openings provided for
seniors during pre-registration.
The council will also discuss
with Mr. Hench methods of im
proving the system used in pre
registration this fall.

“Before any radical change in
regulations can be undertaken,”
she said, “we must decide how
much protection and education
we have to give the present fresh

am afraid if we threw them out
on their own we would run into
many problems.”

Through the
Looking Glass
with Gabbi
First off, Ethel and I want to
issue a hardy Welcome' to the
Class of 1963. We want to dedi
cate this column to you—you
with your snappy dinks set at
a rakish angle, your slightly
dog-earred name cards and the
inevitable Freshman bi b 1 c
clutched in your right hand.
Now that you’ve survived (we
hope you have survived, at any
rate) the lines in the bookstores
and the nasty Sophomores who
insist on knowing where Bor
land Lab is, Ethel and I would
like to acquaint you with a few
of the items to be found in
this shop.
Hexter
is a delightful fellow with a
mop of pure white hair. He is
a very cooperative little man.
and completely wired so that
he can be twisted and turned
in any direction you choose.
Hang Hexter from your mir
ror. Wind him around your
bulletin board. He won’t mind.
Hexter comes m a delightful
airay of colors anywhere from
green to purple. The price?
Why, just like Hexter a de
lightfully small $2.00.
Webster Never Had
It So Good
and you won't either when you
stop in Ethel’s for a pocket
size dictionary. Italian, Ger
man and Latin, to name a few,
are included. I can’t guarantee
you a straight “A” transcript,
but it sure impresses profs to
see you took the time to find
the exact meaning of a word.
The price should do some im
pressing, too. Only $l.OO. While
we’re on a book jag, how about
the next counter where we can
pick up a book on Italian cook
ery (in case you tire of pot
roast in the dorm). Or how
about a book of Shakespeare
sonnets? Ah, fellows, if you
only knew how poetry im
presses the feminine gender.
The conversation lags, the
moon is full, what to do? Why,
just whip out your handy,
dandy, book of sonnets and
the pin is practically hers. How
about a book of Russian Fairy
Tales? Read the very stories
that Momma Khrushchev re
cited to Nikita in his rosy
youth.
You know, I could go on and
on about Ethel’s. I could talk
about the striking contemp
roary jewelry in gold, copper
and satiny silver. Or I could
mention the fast selling, get
’im while they’re hot, mohair
in plaid and solid
colors. I could even give pass
ing note to the large and ex
clusive selection of Tucker ties
at Ethel’s tie bar, but why
don’t you come in and see for
yourself. We won’t bother you.
So Long,
Gabbi
