it too.

True to tradition, the Most Hon-
orable Senate opened its meeting
Tuesday with its usual war. After
everyone sttled down, the meet-

most unhonorable milk-maids who
announced that the fights had been
postponed until the twenty-second.

Jane Severeid, who is in charge
of arrangements, has announced
that the group will meet at school
at 7:15 P. M. and go the 7:30 show

will begin and refreshments will
be served later in the evening.
The pledge service for the new
members had to be postponed since
only three could muster up enough
courage to attend the meeting.
The old members compromised and

Maxine Murray submitted the
bids of various restaurants for the

Amid the confusion that ensued a
motion was passed to have the
banquet at Artists’ Inn, May 4.

The same problem seems to be
worrying Aven this week that
worried him just before the Ran-
gerette picnic.
f
Members of the Cheese Club are
to give a theatre party followed
by a social tomorrow night, April
15. The Cheeses and their dates
will go to the Majestic and then
to the Denver Heights Recreation
Hall for dancing.
After dispensing with the min-
utes of the previous meeting the
Cheeses discussed their theater
party. The motion was made and
passed to invite the Senators that
do not have dates to the social to
come to the Denver Heights Pavi-
lion. . A motion was passed to
amend the Constitution and have
two secretaries, recording and cor-
responding, for next year. A re-
port was made that the cheese for
the float had been received and
was very satisfactory. The Cheeses
then adjourned to join the Sen-
ators for a joint session. A com-
mittee was appointed by Helen
Foote and Howard Spencer to
nominate candidates for the com-
ing election of next year’s Student
Association officers. After a mo-
tion to run Gordon Beitel through
the gauntlet, the meeting was ad-
journed.
After it was generally acclaimed
that a certain group of J. C. stu-
dents bore more resemblance to a
well-known species of wood-gnaw-
ing rodent than to a body of il-
lustrious legislators, the meeting
was called to disorder. There be-
ing none anyway, reading of min-
utes was tabled till next meeting.
Concensus of opinion was to the
effect that those Cowboys—both
of them—that attended Saturday’s
picnic at Landa Park had an envia-
ble ( ? ) time. Cowboy-Adda Dab-
ba dance was discussed and refer-
red to a disgusted committee for
further discpssion. Senators evid-
enced commendable perseverance
but poor judgement by accepting
challenge to another baseball game
Saturday at San Pedro Park.
Highlights of the meeting came
when a certain bronc-buster at-
tempted to ride a precarious perch
atop six stools stacked vertically.
To prevent complete annihilation
of life and property, meeting was
adjourned.
At the noon meeting, the Adda
Dabba’s had as their guests the
Cowboys, at which time, absolute-
ly nothing was accomplished. Af-
ter fifteen minutes of racket the
meeting was adjourned by the
President, Kathryn Dial.
J
The constitutional committee
was instructed to include in the
constitution the above officers and
any others which might be decided
upon later.
It is the purpose of the club to
visit various plants about town
which could be of particular in-
terest to engineering students.
Congratulations go to. Harriet
and Lyle, who always manage to
find a quiet nook before
o’clock every morning.

Re-Marks-able Personality of
the Week: To HELEN FOOTE—
for being long overdue in this sec-
tion through some stupidity of the
columnist; for being the Most
Popular Girl in the Hall Of Fame
and President of the Cheeses; for
being one of Junior College’s
staunchest and most widely-fol-
lowed supporters; for having at all
times a cheery smile and a sym-
pathetic outlook combined with a
grand sense of humor—this week’s
mythical orchid is awarded.

body can see that everything is
all right, and thus avoid having
to build a fence around the place
with impromptu signs saying
“Males Please Keep Out,” “No
Man’s Land,” and other such an-
nouncements. Materially the fence
disappeared over the week-end,
but symbolically the girls intend
for it to remain there.
Much to the regret of all mem-
bers Busbee announced that plans
for attending the coming National
Convention had to be dropped as
no fiancial aid is forthcoming.

letters from someone qn a tropical
Treasurer Jimmie Wolf proudly
reported that for the first time
this year there is a need for a
Treasurer. The Association dance
put J. C. in the black $18.87. A
motion to have a half-page in the
annual carried, and Donald Weich-
lein announced the annual would
be happy to be paid for an al-
ready-prepared page.
Following many personal
quiries into the lives of the new
members by Maxine Murray, the
President, Bill Busbee, managed
to call the meeting to order Thurs-
day, April 6.

ers, etc. to Jeanne’s map of direc-
tions, all understood where and
when.
All were informed that full reg-
ulation uniform must be worn.
Alice thought that since long hose
and long sleeves will be worn that
long underwear would also be ap-
propriate.
It was decided to buy flowers
for the R at the market and then
have the Physics Lab. make the
frame. This is being done to save
expenses since an honor banquet
must be given.
Kaki was surprised to find that
she had been elected Parliamentar-
ian long ago, and immediately took
advantage of her position.
Two boys were elected to carry
the banner in front of the Ranger-
ettes in the Pilgrimage to the
Alamo. Alice Sawtelle was told
to inform Buster Rennert and Ar-
thur ^Schott that they had been
selected.
After the meeting was over all

Although the constitution had not

Dictator Benito Beitel, in his
usual filibuster style, was trying
to talk the club out of the idea of
putting him through the belt line
when the meeting was halted a
moment to greet the Cheeses who
came over to have a bull session.
After an attempt of several of the
Senators to show off, everyone got
down to business with “Sugar”
Foote presiding. Motions were
being cussed and discussed when
the milk-maids crashed the gate
and had to be ejected with force.
Soon after, the meeting was
journed.

J. C. students are finding a new
thrill in the Hey Dey, the Octopus,
and Loop ’0 Plane out on Broad-
way, and any number of boys and
girls from our college may be seen
there most any night. Among
the Loop ’0 Plane fans are ALICE
SAWTELLE, JIMMY WEND-
OVER, HARRY ANKERSON,
JANET HENDRY, JACK GUELD-
NER, and JUDY JOYCE. Con-
fining their interests only to the
saner thrills are KATHRYN
DIAL, CARL YANTIS, ANNA
STEARNS, and ROGER COL-
LINS, who get a big kick out of
the Octopus and the Hey Dey.
This week’s meeting was en-
hanced by the presence of Anna

was so commanding that even
“Patsy” Harper could not resist
singing (?) her praises,

Tuesday, April 4, the Adda
Dabbas entertained with a swim-
ming party at the home of Bar
bara Pratt. After swimming for
an hour and a half a refreshment
plate consisting of potato salad,
sandwiches, cakes, potato chips,

decided to wear the regulation
uniform to the nth degree in the
Pilgrimage to the Alamo.
Three new members, were elect-
ed to membership after discussion
over disregarding constitutional
limits. The new members are

Schaefer, and Maria Allen.
Doris Carter urged that all
members pay their dues because
the Rangerettes need the money
to give the banquet in May.
After forty-five minutes
bickering, the meeting adjourned
to drill.
