Women Prepare For Fall Rushing
The campus drive for dormitory aid may receive a boost when the Women's Pan-Hellenic council meets Thursday afternoon at 4:30 in the Pine room of the Memorial Union building.
Rushee fees and $5 membership dues from houses belonging to the organization make up the greater part of the running fund, from which a dormitory contribution would be taken, according to Jeanne Moyer, fa'42, president.
Although the alumni council takes no action in Pen-Hellenic meetings, reports of proceedings are discussed. Mrs. Eugene Brune, Lawrence, alumni secretary, will make reservations for rushes coming for rush week next fall.
The alumni council, which acts as an advisory board to the Pan-Helenic council, will assist with problems of rushing during the summer, and will make preparation for rush week next fall.
Rush captains, upon request, will receive additions to the rushee list throughout the summer.

The Mathematics Club mixed business with pleasure yesterday afternoon at their annual picnic at Lake Shawnee, when they elected officers for the coming year and presented awards for the outstanding papers presented in the Mathematics Club meeting this year, before indulging in their "picnic activities."
Patricia Green received the $10 first award for her paper on "Curves of Constant Width," in which she showed how a square block can move freely in a round
hole, a fact which sent math students home to see if it had been duly recorded in the book of mechanics. Other awards went to Wilfred Good, Knoll Hersh, and Bruce Crabtree. Edison Greer, instructor in mathematics, was awarded a year's membership in the Mathematical Association of America, for his outstanding work in the club this year.

A full moon and warm spring weather have taken Campus socialites away from their books and put them to work on drives for bigger and better outdoor activities. Not to be downed by the trains of last weekend, students are planning steak fries and picnics with greater zest than ever. At organized houses on the Hill, rushing and "chocolate passions" hold the spotlight. The biggest midweek of the year is scheduled for tomorrow night to climax the informal dancing program, so if you want to know
