The entire campus of the University may give thanks to the Social Committee for its splendid Work of planning a Well-rounded social life for the year. This committee has in charge all of the social functions held in the Student Union. Under the leadership of I. Nloore, who Was also head of the committee last year, this group has arranged and sponsored many all-student dances on Fri- day and Saturday nights throughout the school year. The various organizations on the campus may rent the ballroom of the Student Union by handing in an application for a date. The committee may pass on the application, then reserve the date on the calendar of social engagements. At the beginning of each new quarter there is published a calendar of social events which are to occur during the quarter. The Social Committee has successfully gotten around the prob- lem of fewer men on the campus this year by giving several vice- versa dances. The girls were glad to have a chance to show thc boys what an ideal date was like, While the boys were glad of a chance to let the fair sex foot the bill for a change. One of the most successful of these was the Valentine's Dance, which caused such a commotion on the campus. But we did have it on a week night-and it was a success. The committee has begun some new functions this year. They have attempted to popularize the use of the game room and grill for playing card games on Friday and Saturday afternoons and nights by making cards available to any desiring to play. Secondly, one section of the Union grill is roped off for dancing to the music of the juke box. One of the biggest events put on by the Social Committee during this or any year was the traditional Homecoming Dance. It Was held in the Field House, for this was one time during the year when everybody and his cousin came out to celebrate. The Social Committee meets every other Tuesday afternoon at four o'clock in the Student Union. Page 28

I 'T- The third time was the charm for the Association of Xvomen Students as it wound up a very successful third year under the able leadership of Virginia Shamel. A Shamel took over the job of president last spring in time to plan the annual Spring Festival which took place in the Greek theater on Nlay 11. Five hundred women students went to hear Miss Virginia Reinecke, counselor of women at Oklahoma University, talk and to meet the new members of Alpha Lambda Delta. Phi Chi Alpha, Phi Upsilon Omicron, and Sophomore Council. They also watched the impressive tapping ceremony when new members of Nlortar Board were chosen. At the first of this year, AVVS held an open meeting for all women students at which members of the executive board were introduced and students were urged to work on club committees. Following this, student-faculty teas were held in the Union once each month. Also at the beginning of the year, the animal orientation program and party was given for all new Women students. The Sixth Wlar Loan Drive, which AWS sponsored on the cam- pus, was probably the most obviously successful of all its activities. The campus backed the drive enthusiastically and went 80052 over the quota. liager Kappas bought the Inost and were allowed to name three of the eight ambulances. Nlartha Nlccrary and Shirley blones were chairmen of this bond drive. The scholarship committee, headed by lifllen XVadley, sponsored the giving of vocational guidance tests to all women students. Schedules were made out for each house, and a large number of students took these tests. The annual vocational conference this year was held February 3 and 4. Prominent business and professional women from Arkan- sas and many other states came to the campus to make talks and conduct panel discussions on various fields. As part of the con- ference, a tea was held for speakers. students, faculty, and towns- people, which had a huge attendance, testifying to the success of the conference.
