ascot List
n Campus
By Ida Pack and Pat Rice
Beliveing that mascots and their
presence in living organizations is
very collegiate, some energy, a
little probing, and a lot of just
plain snooping has resulted in
many fascinating details about
these lovable creatures.
The dog tops the list of house
pets, and it is at the Sig Ep house
that the first one is found. Flack
(part Spitz, but really just a mon
grel) is really a party time dog.
Beer is one of Flack’s favorites,
and he seems to be quite a guzzler.
Teka, a boxer hailing from the
Teke house, doesn’t have much
time to be a party dog; she’s too
busy having her hip out of joint
every week. The Teke’s claim
they’re going broke putting it
back into place again. They are
also rather provoked at Teka be
cause of her disloyalty; she spent
a whole night at the SAE house
once.
Sherry Ross Hall claims Jim
Anthony Us its piascot. After con
siderable questioning, it still hasn’t
been decided which species he be
longs to.
VARIETY SHOWN
He has stopped traffic, carries
an always-empty brandy keg
around his neck, snores very de
murely and caught pneumonia.
That’s Sarge, the Phi Sig 210
pound St. Bernard.
If you’ve seen a rather senile
beast (quote) attending morning
classes, it was probably Eric, the
Beta's Great Dane. He’s actually
a very amiable sort of fellow and
a great domestic help because of
his talent for catching flies. He
dislikes St. Bernards and Chows.
“We don’t need a wake-up man.
A pledge calls Phyllis over in the
morning, tells her who needs to be
awakened, and she goes to each
rack and barks!” The Chi Psi’s
Cocker Spaniel is named after one
of their founders. However, the
founder’s name was Philip, so the
first name had to be changed to
Phyllis to fit the sex.
One of the most novel mascots
on the campus is the goldfish
which was almost devoured by
some of the' Phi Kappa Sigmas.
This particular goldfish was won
complete with castles ’n’ every
thing by throwing ping pong balls
in a Fairground concession booth.
iV MAM'S BBS! f lUBfVU
There’s a sweet and innocent
home boy on the campus. He was a
little pick-up at one time, but now
is a very happy pup living at the
Delt house. Teddy has a fondness
for chewing on slippers and then
hiding them. He even sits up like
a Teddy bear.
“He’s strictly a sac,” say the
Kappa Sigs of their throughbred
Collie, Cleo, who is “everyone’s
dog.” She is indifferent to sex; she
loves to be babied at all times.
Over on 11th the Phi Psi’s illus
trious Snowbell resides. Snowbell
is the only dog on campus who can
claim the honor of placing third in
the junior weekend queen contest.
However, this dainty St. Bernard
was disqualified because of her
academic standing.
Pike, a five weks old Blue Tick
Dachshund, is always ready to
supply work for not-so-eager Pi
Kappa Alpha pledges. It Seems she
isn’t housebroken. These fellows
have one problem. They don’t know
whether Pike is a bluish color be
cause of the food she is getting
or because it is a characteristic.
“We’ve got to watch Sam when
he’s around ’cause he picks our
pockets,” the Lambda Chi’s report.
Sam, a raccoon makes a big hit
wherever he goes. At desserts he
is rated tops.

As a junior Miss Petersen
was a member of Phi Theta Up
silon, Associate E d i t o r i n
charge of schools for the Ore
gana, co-chairman of Interna
tional committee of the YWCA,
and co-chairman of All Campus
Luncheon Junior Weekend. The
latter was even more of a thrill, as
she was tapped for Mortar Board at
this time.
A trip to Breeze Point Lodge in
Minnesota to attend a convention of
Mortar Board fulfilled Miss Peter
sen’s desire for travel. Later in the
summer she journeyed into Canada
on her own" and had a wonderful
time, as she declared, “just doing
more or less what I wanted and
viewing the scenic countryside.”
She arri'ued at the conclusion that
the Pacific Northwest was the best
part of the United States.
Miss Petersen is a native of Ore

Portland where she attended
Roosevelt High school, majoring in
history with a minor in education
she plans to teach social science
some day in the near future.
Vivacious 21 year old Miss Peter
