CONTINUED MATERIAL Introduction to The Bethanian can by word and picture. Its editorial function: to mirror student body opinion and in so doing to operate as a vitally important organ of campus democracy, a way of life in which Bethany stu- dents proceed by unending inquiry and debate. In other words the Bethanian editorial policy will not be a one-man viewpoint — one voice lost in the can- yons of our microcosm here. Regular meetings of the staff will be held to determine by investigation and discussion the policy of the magazine. The staff of the Bethanian believes that a col- lege publication should ideally typify democracy just as should the institution which it represents. For Democracy gives every man A right to be his own oppressor. History of Bethany Publications Disciples of Christ, a great effort was made to publish a superior annual. The product of this labor was called the Bethanian, which name has remained till this day. This first issue of the an- nual under this name contained church as well as college publicity. No radical departure has been made in the form and purpose of the publications until last year. Due to a growing progressive element in the stu- dent body, the majority of the students have come to feel the acute inadequacy of the two previous publications. It has been their choice to try an organ which in the end is a combination of the better features of both the old Bethanian and the Collegian, and the elimination of the unnecessary aspects. This is the first issue of the new publica- tion idea. Fraternities and Sororities Pledge for those rushing and those being rushed. Silent period began Friday morning and bids were an- swered on Friday evening between 7 and 8 o ' clock. After five days of rushing, the following girls were pledged on Friday evening, September 30, 1938: Delta of Alpha Xi Delta — Barbara Babbitt, Ruth Bram, June Cleary, Dorothy Douglass, Mildred Erskine, Madeline Forsythe, Phyllis Harbison, Mary Jane Hare, Helen Hicks, Bertha Jane Jacob, Eloise McCauslen, Jane Oberman, Sara Sawtelle, Flora Jane Smith, Janice Stewart, Eleanor Waterhouse, Bette Weber, and the taking of house privileges by Kathleen Hamilton.

Sigma Xi of Kaopa Delta — Dorothy Armstrong, Nancy Belt, Sarah Bishop, Jayne Corcoran, Frances Dvorak, Janice Evans, June Fiess, Marjorie Fin- ney, Marjorie Hanner, Beatrice Lake, Phyllis Skil- ton. Jean Sturgis, and Ila Warstler. Omega of Alpha Delta Theta — Margaret Dice, Roberta Elliston, Edna Mae Jamison, Dorothy Lynch, Ruth Moser, Mary Louise Ray, Rosemary Roberts, and Ida Ruth Steiner. Office of Dean of Women Reports The group of hostesses and the dean of women are taking as a project study The Factor of the Student Living Group in College Learning, aiming to establish and maintain conditions favorable to study and happy social living. The respective house presidents aiding in this project are Miss Jane Bryan, Alpha Delta Theta; Miss Jane Cluss, Alpha Xi Delta; Miss Lillian Mal- lory, Helwig hail; Miss Norma McAdams, Kappa Delta ; Miss Jean McKenna, Phillips hall ; Miss Dor- othy Ritter, Zeta Tau Alpha. Thus the outlook for the current year is bright. The women students are enjoying a larger oppor- tunity for experience in leadership and sharing with the college administration responsibility for their conduct and social development. Academic Department . . . Chemistry Woltz and Byron Baer are at West Virginia uni- versity; Paul Meriage and William Castellano are at Detroit university; Joe Hickman and John Bax- ter are at Johns Hopkins; Richard Brandon is the present holder of the du Pont fellowship at Ohio State university; John Cowan was at Cornell, is now with U. S. Rubber; Paul Johnson was at In- diana university, is now with the Wrigley Corpor- ation ; Bertha Fietz took textile chemistry at Iowa State; Arthur Ruggiere and Ashley Dowdy are at N. Y. U. and Western Reserve Medical, respective- ly; Russell Shoup is with the National Electric Coil company at Columbus; Harry McQuown, George Sherwin, and William Dietz are steel chem- ists; Amelio Montagna is with Carbide and Car- bon; Marvin Ludwig, Charles Funk, William Nee, and Oliver Vodrey have positions with Republic Steel in different localities; Earnest Korb and Ed- mund Wilkins are with du Pont; Crandall Haddox is with Pure Oil, and Andy Johnson is with United Clay Products. We hope that this article has given at least a partial picture of chemistry departmental activities of recent years with, the further hope that its con- tributions have been of real value for the college as a whole. The departmental program would be impossible without the help of such important di- visions as biology, mathematics, physics, English and economics, to mention only some. In turn this department hopes that it may have contributed to the culture and welfare of their sudents. The College Man Living Paradox subsidize athletes. He wants more student govern- ment so he can run the college, while he fails to run efficiently his own fraternity. Then makes no use of his power when he does get it. He is proud to graduate from a Christian college and com- plains of a devotional service in chapel. He is convinced that he pays too much for the privilege of attending classes but petitions for more cuts. No wonder the problem of student morale is so perplexing when the students in question are such living contradictions of themselves! PAGE TWENTY-NINE

The Valley Press also publishes the Brooke News, several high school papers, d:. nce programs, invita- tions, and most of the publishing work of the local fraternities.

They will supply the apple a day or any other fruits or vegetables, but they do refuse to peel grapes. Griest— Back when Wheeling was the gateway to the west, some- time around 1898, Griest ' s origin- al cut-rate store was founded. It handles almost everything on« can think of.
