PAGE SEVEN
On the Shin
By Walt Meininger
This is a long story so we'll be VEa sometime last year. Mary Ann Cook, of the Gamma Phi house has long been in correspondence with a lad in the East.
On some anniversary or other he sent her four Japanese orchids, diminutive posies, worth considerably more than their weight in gold. Mary Ann didn't know what they were; broke up the corsage and gave a single blossom to each of three friends; kept one for herself.
When she wrote the young man she thanked him for the flowers; called them by some common garden type nomen. He wrote the florist; gave him the devil for not sending the right kind of flowers. The florist called Mary Ann; asked her what was the matter with the Japanese orchids he had to send to Kansas City for.
Just brings us up to this week's series of episodes.
The lad from the East came to Lawrence, unannounced, to spend a 10-day vacation. Invited to the Gamma Phi house for dinner Thursday night he sent a corsage for the housemother, a corsage for Mary Ann, and a corsage for the president, Betty Van Devanter. Not content with this floral display, he wound up with a talisman rose for every girl in the house and three center pieces for the table.
But there's more to this fairy tale. Between courses, the visitor stood up and gave a toast for the Gamma Phi's and Mary Ann that brought tears to many mamaacared

Charter Granted To Flying Club
The University women's flying club was granted a charter to become the 17th unit member of the Women's National Aeronautical association in the United States, by Mrs. Patricia Solander, governor of the eastern Kansas unit of the organization, at a meeting in the Memorial Union building Thursday night. Mrs. James D. McCoy, president of the Topeka unit, gave a short pep talk welcoming the K.U. girls into the club.
Mrs. Orlando Miller, air-marking chairman of the Kansas unit of the W.N.A.A., informed the new charter member of one of its future projects. The girls will work in co-
crbs. It even sent Patty Wadley upstairs openly crying.
It still must have been a potent toast.
Reason for the tears: Mary Ann had promised Joe Chesky at the Delt house to go steady starting this weekend. The girls knew it; the flower donor knew it.
We haven't heard what the final result is. If that won't swing it for the visitor, nothing will. He seems to have big ideas and the money to carry them out.
When presumptuous Tildie Ann Fowler, the girl your columnist usually escorts, hurt her finger, it was kissed and cured by John C. Hocevar, Jr. Miss Fowler then coily displayed her sore knee. Your columnist is bitter.
Mrs. Solander reviewed the progress of Kansas women from the pioneer days to the participation of women in aviation today.

will reach student voters Monday.
Both parties seemed earnestly convinced of victory. Gray confidently predicted a landslide for McKay and a Pachacamac majority on the council. Leonard, a veteran political war horse without bluster expressed an equal confidence in the ability of the hard working Farmer to win the M.S.C. presidency.
Both factions seemed to agree that the election has been more "sportsmanlike" than it has in past years.

So far there has been no fisticuffs in the campaigning. Just how long this seraphic calm will prevail after the P.S.G.L. reads the Pachacamac newspaper is a moot question. One thing is certain, the Hill will know there's an election slated for Tuesday when P.S.G.L. begins discussing the merits of the Pachacamac newspaper.
