'Career Unstable To Czech Woman'
Czechoslovakian women cannot be as sure of their careers as can American women, Bozena Nemecova, exchange student from Prague, told members of the Associated Women Students' house of representatives, senate, and guest speakers for the Careers conference March 17.
Miss Nemecova told of the inscrurity of European women, who never know when the communists will usurp governmental authority and close up their offices and practices.
She read part of a letter, which she had written in reply to a friend who feared for the safety of her child. "Your Douglas came into an unsettled world, that is very true indeed, but brought up in the wonderful democratic spirit of the United States, he will have the chance to help our world to settle down." she read.
"If he had been born in Czechoslovakia, he also would be taught to love freedom and democracy, but his fatherland would be too small to guarantee that he will always reach what he loves," she said.
Six Are Pledged By Jay Janes
Eleanor M. Kerkord, College junior, and Evelyn Harris, special student, are the first Negro women to become pledges of Jay James, Bonnie Cunningham, secretary announced. This action is in accordance with the repeal of the racial discrimination clause in the constitution of Phi Sigma Chi, national pen organization.
These women were two of six University women who were pledged at the Jay Jane meeting March 16. Others are Jo Anne Myers and Patricia Grinnell, College juniors; Charity Fischer, fine arts senior; and Bernadine Mohler, College freshman.
Arthur M. Jens, Grand Alpha, is shown handing the charter of the Beta Beta chapter of Phi Kappa Sigma to Thomas J. Alexander, chapter president. The charter was given to the chapter Saturday morning at a ceremony in the Grill room of the Eldridge hotel. Eight national officers, the University chapter officers, and 28 charter members were present. The Beta Beta chapter is the 22nd fraternity at the University and the 40th chapter of Phi Kappa Sigma in the nation.
