Women's Council Approves Report On Book Store
Clayton Conner, c'39
After a rather lengthy discussion on the matter, the W.S.G.A. council voted at its meeting last night to place its signature on the recommendation dawned up Monday after the co-operative book store committee.
This resolution, replacing the one submitted by the M.S.C. a week ago and vigorously rejected, authorizes the Union Operating committee to submit definite plans for the establishment of a re-ooperative book plan making some provision for the present W.S.G.A book store.
Still slightly wary about adopting any resolution after the nature of the one submitted to them last week, the council members were deceived and agreed that would bind them in their course of action when the Union Operating committee eventually submits its plans. The council also intends to be convinced that their co-operative book store will sell books that will not but also effect a real saving to the students. This reasoning is supported by the W.S.G.A. book store which thrives on a 10 per cent profit and has proved beneficial to the students and the W.S.G.A.
Ruth Learned, c'37, president of the W.S.G.A. and a member of the book store committee, stated that the committee estimated that it would probably require two or three years before the new book store pays for itself, and the students begin receiving their rebates.
on the SHIN by Kenneth Morris
From the number of comments, we gather that the play, "This Thing called Love," is really a success—have also heard a good many complimentary remarks about the fine acting by Betty Ruth Smith. It is said to be the first time in University Theater that she has received two curtain calls. Although the play is good, a person on the inside has informed us that an alleged moral corrupting scene was censored—the reason being that the leading man was to have appeared alone on the stage in a pair of underwear shorts and continue his dressing from that point. (Rylan would not pose in the play but not alone in the meeting of obstables.)
Paul Kihm's 10-up passage Lincoln is in out the Kappa Sig drive again, thwarting every attempt of its owner to bridge it. It has been a week since he closed over a week, right where cars of ordinary size can hardly sneak through. Numerous attempts have been made by the brothers to move it. One of them even set fire to it. Another opened fire and put the fire out with the help of a bucket brigade. Maybe it would be easier to build another driveway.
Mary (I'm atwitter) Johns had reason to live up to the nick-name last Monday—it was her birthday and she received a phone call from her favorite man who is in Cleveland. Mary spent all day Monday telling about the call, and all dog yesterday still smiling.
The night before the Pi K.A. party, Virgil Coutright was trying to make arrangements for a ride for one of his brothers with whom he thought he might double-date. He called the brother's girl and explained that she had better plan to meet him because she wouldn't have one, and that the conversation was purely his idea of putting her wise to save the fraternity brother any embarrassment. But it didn't work so well because the girl surmised that Virgil was using the round-about method merely to give a ride for himself and his date, so she didn't take the car.

Conflicting Dates Cancel Carnival For This Spring
The W.S.G.A. Carnival, scheduled for this spring, will not be held. Because of almost insurmountable difficulties, the W.S.G.A. at their meeting last night, voted unanimously to postpone indefinitely their Dutch-Dating Carnival which had formerly been planned for next Friday night.
The motion to postpone the carnival first met with considerable opposition, and it was only after a thorough discussion that the council agreed. The committee proved unresistible to attempt one. The primary objection, which had been the cause of the postponement of the carnival planned for Friday night, was that the carpenters were too busy to correct the booths and the other equipment necessary. State statute requires that all such work be done by the University buildings and grounds carpenters and these men would have an advantage in less than two days while there was but one day available.
Other difficulties which confine with the carnival are the Junio Prom, Military Ball, Senior Cake walk, mid-seminar examinations Easter vacation, and the following weekends and parties which are occupying almost every weekend from now until the end of the semester.

Expected To Approve
Book Store
Problem
A revised resolution, as recommended by a joint committee on the co-operative book store, has only to meet the approval of the Men's Student Council tonight before both student governing organizations will have ironed out their difficulties and agreed temporarily upon a line of definite action.
The resolution as originally submitted was not approved by the W.S.G.A. on the grounds that the resolution as drawn up had been railroaded through with but little violation of the interests of the W.S.G.A.
Upon the rejection of the resolution by the W.S.G.A., a joint committee on the co-operative book store revised the co-resolution which received the approval of the W.S.G.A. yesterday.
In the revised resolution it was stipulated that the Union Operating committee be authorized and requested to admit to the two councils definite plans for operation of the book course for the students.
In the original resolution the Union Operating committee was to be authorized to operate the book store, and containing no reservations which called for any offers for the book exchange owned by the W.G.A.
Under the present set-up, if the revolution passes the M.S.C. tonight, the Union Operating committee will draw up plans for such a co-operative book store, which will be located in the Union building, and these plans will have to be submitted to and approved by both operators before the plan is taken on the part of the Union Operating committee toward the establishment of a co-operative book store.
