Weekend Flings Are From Box Supper to Casino Party
On Friday night Hill gaiety included the A. T. O. Casino party, the Beta "German" Delta Tau Delta steak fry, the American Institute of Electrical Engineers' dance in the Kansas room, and a Wesley Foundation hayrack ride.
Every I. S. A. man who is looking for a girl just like the girl who married dear old Dad scurried to the I. S. A. box supper in Robinson gymnasium last night for a bit of old-fashioned amusement.
At "Club Alpha Tau" the A.T.O.'s danced to the music of Clyde Bysom, gambled with play money in an authentic game room, and puzzled over the card hands on the walls. Each person was given his quota of play money as he entered. So he took the thousand dollars and played craps.
Dancing partners were chosen in a variety of ways at the Beta Theta Pi party. For instance, each hecatc Cinderella tossed her slipper into the center of the room and shagged the next Virginia reel with whatever Prince Charming brought it back to her. Another scheme was for girls to line up at one end of the room; boys, at the other. Then off with the lights, everybody marched forward and danced with who bumped into him. Clayton Harbur furnished swingout for the Beta's.
The Delt's held their steak fry at Holcom's grove. After the feed Art Stanfield and his Negro band played hot music for dancing.

Were you ever stranded on a desert island? Or lost in a fog? Perhaps when you first came to this University you had that same lost feeling—especially if you came from a small high school and had no Hill acquaintances. Perhaps you were helped by your freshman counselor.
90 Counselors to Guide Lost Freshmen Next Fall
Both men and women have counseling systems at the University. During the past week the women's group has been organizing for its activities next fall. Nearly six years ago the counselling
Last year for the first time the new students were entertained in the homes of faculty members in an attempt to "break down the barrier between students and faculty," according to Miss Meguiar.
The organizations begins its work during the summer. A list of the new women to attend the University is obtained from the school in August and is divided among the captains. The counselors write the women telling them of the counseling system and offer their help and advice on any problems.
When the women arrive, advisers may arrange to meet them at the train and help them to get settled in their new homes. Then they take up their counseling duties in earnest for Freshman week and the rest of the year.

Nearly six years ago the counseling system was instigated through the office of Miss Elizabeth Meguiar, adviser of women, but gradually this work has been taken over by Mortar Board, senior women's honor society. The work is directly authorized by the administration.
The chairman of the system is chosen by the members of Mortar Board and Miss Meguiar. Alice Ann Jones, college senior, was in charge of organizing the system this year, and Mary Ewers, business junior, will take over the duties as head of the system for next year.
Most of the help for the new women is completed within the first three months, although it is carried on throughout the entire year. Each member of Mortar Board is a captain of the system, in charge of several counselors. Next year 90 women will be advisers.
