Campus Chest continues drive
The deadline for Campus Chest donations has been extended into next week, according to Mike Spencer, Overland Park junior and Campus Chest Committee chairman.
Although the collection tables in the Kansas Union and Strong Hall are not doing very well because "people turn their head the other way as they walk past." Spencer hopes for a better showing from the organized living groups.
A chili supper, an auction and dressing down for dinner are some of the specific projects used in organized women's living groups on campus.
In Lewis Hall each infraction of the regular dining room dress costs the guilty woman a dine. Cut-offs and rollers, for example, added 20 cents to the price of one woman's dinner.
"FUNDS ARE BEING collected in every living group." Spencer said, "but the boys are not going all out like the girls are."
Delta Delta Delta sorority and Sellars Hall both had auctions. The women brought favorite possessions of their roommates to the auction. Some women bought their own possessions for a week; others found the bidding more than they could afford.
Stuffed animals, boyfriend's pictures and a packet of letter lesters were auctioned. A Beatles album at Sellards went for $2.25. At the Delta Delta Delta house, the bells the housemother uses to call dinner were auctioned off.
The pledges at the Alpha Gamma Delta house have collected miscellaneous items from the actives which they will sell at a party this weekend.
AT THE SIGMA Kappa house the girls willing to give a quarter to Campus Chest were allowed to wear jeans to dinner.
Chili and jello were served to the Kappa Alpha Thetas for dinner one night; the money saved
from the regular food budget went to Campus Chest.
Members of the Alpha Omicron Pi sorority are ironing men's shirts for the fund raising drive. The price is only 15 cents.
Monday night is Honors Night for the women on campus. They will be urged by Glenda Hord, Kansas City junior and Panhellenic President, to contribute to the Campus Chest, which will turn its funds over to World University Service.
SWITCHING COMPLETELY away from women, the Alpha Phi Omega "Ugly Man on Campus" contest will also collect money for the Campus Chest.
Any group may enter a picture of their "ugly" candidate. No restrictions exist on the type of makeup that can be used; the only stipulation is no masks.
The pictures are put on jars and the students then vote on the ugliest. The ballots, so to speak, are the coins the students drop in the respective jars.
The Campus Chest receives this money, which last semester was over $120. The winning group gets prizes from Lawrence merchants and a traveling trophy.
