sponsibility, and criticism.”

ternity as "polite country club”
was only a small part of its func
tion.
A film, “Toast to our Brother”
was shown.

briefed the freshmen on the rules
to be followed throughout the
week.

Walls Refinished
In SU Rooms
Refinishing of walls in the Stu
dent Union in first, second and
third floor meeting rooms and
halls was done during the holiday
vacation at a cost of about $2000,
according to Dick Williams, direc
tor of the SU.
Constant moving of furniture
caused damage to the plaster walls
and necessitated the installation of
Kalistron and micarta wall cover
ing materials, Williams said.
Walls of the first floor meeting
rooms and the third floor hallway
were lined from floor to ceiling
with Kalistron, a new plastic ma
terial. Walls of the second floor
meeting rooms, adjacent to the
ballroom, were covered with blue
micarta to the height of about five
feet.
Physical plant employees during
the holiday period repaired cracks
in the walls in several places, caus
ed by the gradual shrinkage of
concrete brick.
Employment Low
For Winter Term
Part time jobs for students “are
rather quiet this term” according
to Miss Shirley Sylvester of the

slack in job opportunities follows
the high employment of students
over the Christmas vacation.
The outlook for summer employ
ment is better said Miss Sylvester.
Summer jobs for men in the na
tional forest service at Yellow
stone park and for men and wom
en over 21 in hotel work at a Colo
rado resort are presently available.
Notification of other summer
