Carnival Booth
Fees Due at 5
The deadline for paying booth
fees for the WAA Carnival has
been extended until 5 p.m. today,
Lillian Schott, booth committee
co-chairman, reported Thursday. !
Money may be turned in to Miss
Schott, Sigma Kappa, or Maggie

The deadline was extended due
to confusion in the amount each
living organization must pay, Miss
Schott said. Many houses thought
the fee was $2 per booth, whereas
it is actually $2 per living organiza
