She's a Beauty— But Is She Ours?
"Is she is or is she ain't our baby?"
This is the question in the minds of the officers of Kappa Kappa Gamma sorority and the personnel in the registrar's office, as they anxiously await tomorrow's arrival of movie star Dolores Michaels from Hollywood.
Miss Michaels' studio, 20th Century Fox, says she attended KU for two years and was a member of the sorority during her stay here.
Dolores Michaels
The registrar's office, however, reports that no such person is listed in its records for the years (presumably 1950-1951) when Miss Michaels was supposed to have been here.
Miss Michaels, who is one of five stars in the western, "Warlock," will be in Lawrence for a few hours tomorrow to promote her new film.
To further complicate matters, the officers at the KKG house can find no record of her, either.
Her tentative schedule calls for a visit with students in the Music and Dramatic Arts Building, after which she is to attend a coffee at the sorority in question.
However, the women who are to serve as hostesses are still trying, feverishly, to find out if she was or wasn't one of them.
As of last night, the sorority women were undecided on whether or not to have the coffee. First, they want to know if the actress belongs.
An editor of the Daily Kansan called the sorority house to make arrangements to have a picture taken of the actress having coffee with the KKG women.
The whole thing started when the Daily Kansan received a publicity release from the Fox studio announcing Miss Michael's arrival.
Bulletin
When the sorority revealed that it knew nothing of her past membership, it was thought that perhaps
"The publicity manager was reported as saying he thought it would sound better if people thought Miss Michaels was a sorority girl, so he chose one of the houses she had visited and released information that she was a member," said the spokesman.
Starlet Dolores Michael's is ours —by virtue of a three week stay at KU in 1851. But she never did pledge Kappa Kappa Gamma. So says a sorority spokesman.
Her studio was then contacted through Warner Erothers representatives in Kansas City, and the studio said that her name had not been changed. The studio also stuck by its original biography, which states that Miss Michaels had once been a KU coed.
the actress had changed her name after leaving the Midwest.
At this point in the mystery of the celebrity's missing past, the registrar's office was contacted. Again, the results were negative.
So, things are right back where they started, with Miss Michaels' biography on one side and the University and a confused sorority on the other.
The race to solve the mystery is liable to go right down to the wire as the hour set for the coffee draws near.
Bulletin
A student was arrested by election police this afternoon for distributing copies of the AGI pamphlet "Speaking Franklin" within 50 feet of the polls. Jim Disque, Lawrence senior, and AGI representative to the Elections Committee, impounded the ID card belonging to Allan Weis, Freeport, N.Y. freshman, after warning him of the violation once.

AGI Campaign Errors Alleged
The All Student Council election committee today reported that alleged violations of the political campaign by Allied Greek-Independent party will be turned over to the Student Court for further action.
Dave Wilson, Kansas City, Mo. senior and committee chairman, said that a preliminary investigation had disclosed violations of the Associated Students Constitution.
Terry Elliott, Fort Scott junior and president of AGI, denied at least two of the charges.
the violations being investigated are:
1. The posting of campaign posters within 50 feet of the polling area.
2. The posting of campaign literature in unauthorized areas.
4. Posters and cards that don't state clearly who paid for them.
4. An apparent over-expenditure of the amount of campaign fund allotted them. The amount allote to each party is $270.
5. An AGI pamphlet, "Speaking Frankly," contains information that is false and misleading.
6. That some place cards contain a drawing of a person making what can be interpreted as an obscene gesture.
Elliott said:
"Distribution of the campaign materials is up to the candidates and it is possible that they could have posted materials in the wrong places.
"As for the campaign funds, I turned in a list of all the costs I knew of and until I can check the books I believe we did not exceed the allotted amount of expenditures."
Party Pamphlet May Get Supplement
Rumors that a supplement to the AGI pamphlet, "Speaking Frankly," might be issued today, were answered by Terry Elliott. Ft. Scott junior and president of AGI He said:
"If the pamphlet is released, it will come out tonight. However, at this time, I doubt if there will be one."
On the charge about the obscenpost. Elliot said:
"I can't accept that at all. I think that the charge is completely false. If he (Wilson) chooses to interpret it that way, that's his business.
"I had no such thought as that in my mind at all, and this is the first time I've heard anything about the poster."
The election committee, in charge of the general supervision of the ASC election, is composed of members from each party. The members are appointed by the chairman of the ASC and approved by the committee on committees.
Wilson said:
T. C. Helvey, visiting professor of radiation biophysics, will discuss "More Than Meets the Eye," (microoperations), on Science Scope at 11:30 a.m. tomorrow on Channel 13, WIBW television, Teopka.
"The reason for the preliminary investigation at this particular time is because of a number of irregularities and discrepancies which we felt warranted investigation."
