Paddle Party Is Sigma Kappa Favorite
MAVIS LUKERT
This is another in a series of articles to acquaint the campus with the various organized houses, their members, officers, and histories.
Paddle party, senior banquet, and Founder's day are traditional favorites with the Sigma Kappa's.
Differing from most sororites, the pledges of Sigma Kappa choose their pledge mothers. At a big party soon after rush week, pledges present their chosen mother with a paddle.
In the spring the chapter honors its graduating seniors with a banquet. It's all formal and solemn, except for one thing. At each senior's place is either a piece of sandy or a lemon. The engaged women are given the candy, the spinners, the lemon.
Founder's day for Sigma Kappa is Nov. 11. About 25 alums came back this year to celebrate. Sigma Kappa was founded in 1874 at Colby college, Waterville, Maine.
In 1913, it was established at K.U.
It had existed for a year before, as Delta Psi, a local sorority. The first house was at 11th and Indiana streets, and the present chapter house is at 1625 Edgahill road.
Violet is their flower; maroon and lavender, their colors. The sorority magazine is the Triangle. There are 42 active chapters of Sigma Kappa in the United States, and one in Canada.
Mrs. Mary Younkman is the house-mother.
Officers are Mavis Lukert, president; Betty Whitney, vice-president; Martha Hogan, recording secretary; Frances Hadley, treasurer; Sheila Guise, pledge trainer, and Mary Vermillion, rush captain.
Other members of the active chapter are Caroline Morriss, Joan Harris, Maurine Breitenbach, Marilyn Beck, Sarah Ann Scotchone, Kathleen Wright, Margaret Wright, Jeanne Marie Smith, Jill Lauderdale, Shirley Guenther, Betty Wahlstedt, Lorea Norrie Blair, LaJune Dunn, Jeannette Perkins, Helen Todd.
"Publication of the Graduate magazine is behind schedule and we do not know when the November issue will appear." Fred Ellsworth, secretary of the Alumni association, said today. Shortage of help has caused the delay. Mr. Ellsworth explained.

Cradle to College to Cradle Again--- That's Story of K.U. Nursery School
From cradle to college to cradle again—
Psychologists may term this "regression," but it isn't. Students enrolled in Child Development I and II, and a few other University courses, are required to spend their laboratory time at the University nursery school. The school, 1100 Missouri street, is sponsored by the University with 15 children, from two to four years of age, enrolled. and occasionally help in m

The home economics department was responsible for the school's establishment in July, 1943. Department heads aided the wartime community by caring for working mothers' children, and at the same time, provided a laboratory for University students.
In their two-hour laboratory period every week, each student in Child Development II takes complete charge of the children for a few minutes. The other students note mistakes which the student made, and during one class period each week, the laboratory work is discussed.
Students in Child Development I spend some time during the semester observing the children at play. Though the nursery school is used principally as a laboratory for Child Development I and II classes, other students have practical experience with the children in some way.
Students, enrolled in a clinical psychology course, give the children their pre-school psychological tests, and class members in a physical education course observe the children during their play period.
Case work of nursery school children has been carried out by one sociology class, and elementary school art is observed by education majors. Nutrition classes at the University check nursery school menus.
and occasionally help in meal preparation.
Nursery school hours are from 11:30 a.m. to 4:45 p.m. Lunch is served the children upon their arrival at nursery school. Every child takes a nap after lunch, then after a second lunch of orange juice and cookies, the rest of the afternoon is a play period.
When the University nursery school was first established it was sponsored by the University, but financed by the federal Landham act. Now on post war basis, all nursery school children pay a tuition to the University, which sponsors and finances the school.
Equipment in the nursery school is scaled so that it is the appropriately small size for the children. The arrangement of furniture is planned so that there is a minimum of restriction. Children are taught their responsibilities to the group in an effort to make the nursery school as much like home as possible.
The school staff includes Miss Mary Elizabeth Evans, supervisor and instructor of both child development courses, Mrs. Edwin O. Stene, head teacher, Mrs. Jack Stevens, '42, and Mrs. Gerald Buehler, assistants.
So essential was the new tree for making bow-staves that early English laws made the planting of these compulsory.
