Inquiring Reporter Reporter Finds Dessert Plan Gets Approval By Larry Hobart At a meeting Monday night the ASUO Executive Council recom mended a plan to equalize the number of desserts between dor mitories and Greek organizations. The proposed, plan, prepared by a special committee, calls for the canceling of the last three des serts of the fall term and replac ing them with dormitory desserts. This would create a ratio of seven desserts with Greek organizations to three desserts with independent groups if all of the ten available dates were filled. If all dates are not filled, a ratio would be ar ranged. In a poll taken today, students expressed their desire to see the revision take place. Convinced that the purpose of desserts is to help students to get to know each other, the majority of the students f questioned approved of the plan, which would bring independent and Greek groups in closer con tact. Bill Crandall—sophomore in business administration—“I live in a dormitory and am all for more desserts for dormitories. It would allow the dorm men to meet more girls.” Gerry Pearson—sophomore in writing—“Desserts are primarily to allow new students to become acquainted. If new students aren’t allowed to attend the desserts, the purpose is gone and they might as well be abolished. The revision would be a good idea.” Linda Stoop—freshman in P. E. —“A good idea. It would give women pledges, who cannot attend desserts at their houses, a chance to meet a greater variety of men.” Walt Fertig—senior in business administration—“A good plan, fellows would be able to meet more girls. It would help establish better relationships between Greeks and independents.” David Moore—freshman in libe ral arts—“It would help overcome the barrier between independents and Greeks.” Hai Chuen Tan—junior in archi tecture—“I think that dormitories should have more desserts. There are a great many girls living in the dorms and they should receive a proportionate number of des serts.” Dewey Reed—senior in liberal tarts—“The freshman boys have r:o way of meeting girls. Addition al desserts for dormitories would help in this respect. ....Sally Lyman—freshman in art —“It’s a great idea! The more, the merrier. It gives us girls more chance to meet men than we do during the week when we’re in hibernation.” Ken Hodge—senior in business administration—“I’m greatly in favor of the revision. It’s the first real step towards better liaison between Greeks and independents.” Joice Balch—freshman in psy chology—“The revision is an ex cellent idea. I think that with as few social activities as freshman women have, the additional des serts would be welcome.” Finance Petitions Due Sub-chairmen for the Homecom ing finance committee should turn in petitions to chairman Virginia Kellogg.
