Sclerosis Fund Drive Is Greek Week Project
The Greek Week project will be a money drive for the Multiple- Sclerosis Fund, Joanne Hobbs, Wichita junior and chairman of the Greek Week project committee, announced today. The KU drive begins March 10 when the national drive ends.
Plans are being made to zone the city. Fraternities and sororities will solicit in sections assigned according to house membership.
The funds collected will be divided among the national foundation, which will receive 40 per cent, the state foundation, 20 per cent, and the Douglas county group, 40 per cent. The county money will be used to build a clinic for treatment and research.
Miss Hobbs said this year's project should be important because students are within the age limit of the disease. Multiple sclerosis attacks one out of every 400 people, usually between the ages of 15 and 45. Often the nervous system is injured and partial paralysis or blindness or both occur.
Something new has been added this year to Greek Week. A King will be chosen to reign along with the Queen. Until this year, only a Queen was chosen.
Also included in Greek Week ceremonies will be the chariot race, a scholarship dinner, and the song-fest. The King and Queen will reign jointly over all events of the week.
Entries of groups and ensembles in the Greek Week Sing must be turned in by Monday, said Janis Hartell, Plattsburg, Mo., junior, and chairman of the program. Persons who already have entered must turn in titles of their songs, also by Monday, she said. The sing will be Thursday, March 15 in the Student Union Ballroom.
