Remember — receiving all those booklets about college life while still a pros- pective student; rushing to the mail box on Friday morning to scan the news- packed columns of the College Eye; getting acquainted with the burly heroes who defend the honor of I. S. T. C. on the gridiron and in the cage through the issues of the Prowl; the thrill of finding items about Iowa State Teachers College in the newspapers; seeing the stacks of Alumnuses ready to be sent out to those who call T. C. their Alma Mater; and getting your copy of the OLD GOLD — you can credit the Bureau of Publicity for these memories. The Bureau, under the direction of George H. Holmes, is responsible for all of these important publications. In addition, it supervises the publication of departmental booklets and sends stories concerning students who figure prom- inently in events at Iowa State Teachers College to the home-town newspapers.

. . . Zslie WOMEN’S JLou. That Couple again Remember her?? Campus officers get lowdown on Point System Not everything students learn at college is found in their books and in the classrooms. Extra-curricular and social activities have a prominent place as well in a well-rounded program for the ''up-to-date'' co-ed on the Iowa State Teachers College campus. To see that such a program is admin- istered, an organization known as the Women's League has been set up. Its policies and activities are determined by the Execu- tive Council, composed of seven officers, nine other members, and the chairmen of standing committees. Every woman on the campus automatically becomes a member of Wo- men's League when she enrolls at Teachers College. Guided by president Catherine Gilbert, the Women's League this fall sponsored a welcoming tea for new women faculty mem- bers and new faculty wives. Other tradi- tional activities promoted by the organization are: Femmes' Fancy, Senior Women's Lan- tern Parade, and the Installation of the new officers in the spring. To carry out this program of helping Betty Co-ed make the best of herself, the Social Standards Committee, headed by Shirley Bergum, this year brought Elizabeth McDon- ald Osborne, noted personality consultant to the campus. Style and appearance-conscious collegiennes eagerly seized tips on self- improvement. Ruby Hull's Organizations Committee carried out a program of interviewing all freshman women about extra-curricular par- ticipation. E«-rgum. Blunt, Catherine Gilbert, Hess. R. Hull, B.

Where's Yehudi? Sorry, but that's one thing the Bureau of Alumni Affairs doesn't know. Because you see, he isn't a graduate of State Teachers College. The Bureau, headed by Mr. Fuller, keeps in touch with each graduate as to his occupations and whereabouts. It keeps on file all sorts of records concerning his accomplishments, his family, and many other items of interest. The Alums are always interested in knowing how much they are missed in their old Alma Mater, so the Bureau distributes The Alumnus four times each year, letting graduates know how the college is getting along without their able assistance, as well as what changes are being made around the campus. In addition, the Bureau also sponsors one of the most colorful and exciting events of the year — Homecoming. The alumni are given a chance to keep in touch with their classmates and professors.
