Send Your Mother A Greeting S u n d a y , I t ’s Her Day Ching Fu Says: Where in it hotter than i summer? (See choir story). PUBLISHED BY ASSOCIATED STU DENTS AT FLAGSTAFF, ARIZONA Catalina Meet Lauded By Two Jack Leaders Ward, Rogers Give Views On Confab Carl Rogers and Brewer Ward, presidents-elect and outgoing respectively, were both enthusiastic in their praiBe of the potential worth to the student body as a whple of their trip last week to Catalina Island for the purpose of attending the 18th - annual Congress f l the Pacific Students Presidents Association. The convention was neld over a three day period, with the first day at Long Beach. Seventy representatives from colleges in the Rocky Mountain and Pacific districts were present at the meet. Discussions at the convention were held in informal round-tables. Topics discussed included freshman orientation, relations of student publications to student gov ernment, student-faculty-alumni-administration relations, and the development of campus activities. The last meeting, held on the Island, drew up resolutions and chose Sun Valley, Idaho, as next year’s convention site. The representatives were entertained on the mainland by tours of Hollywood and the C o l u m b i a Broadcasting Bystem studios; and at Catalina by a beach part and a dinner-dance at St. Catherine’s hotel, at both of which the men were hosts to 70 U.C.L.A. coeds. Among the items which impressed the Flagstaff delegates was the equality which they, coming from the smallest school i%presented, were able to feel in the discussion periods. ‘The meet was exceptionally well planned,” according to Ward. “I ieel that no president should miss an opportunity to attend." Among the schools represented were the University of Arizona, with two delegates, and Arizona State at Tempc, which sent four men to the meet. The minutes of the meeting will be printed by the Association, and together with notes taken by Rogers and Ward will be presented to the student body in tne near future. Peaceful Session Marks Start Of Axe Awarding Robert Evans Named Pine Business Manager For ’41-’42 what was probably onfc of the most peaceful meetings ever to consider the gold axe awards for seniors, the student council last night, in one sitting, practically completed work on the troublesome topic of the awards, and still found time to appoint the new business manager for THE PINE. The axe awards, usually the center of the most violent student legislative Btorm of the year, are symbolic of the highest honors given to the graduating seniors by the student body. Those who are honored with the axes are Btu-dents who, in the unanimous opinion of the council members, have been among those seniors who have given the highest service to the school as a whole, and at the same time exhibited characteristics of leadership, scholarship, and service. le awarding of the axes last night- proceeded at a good pace, up to the close of the meeting, wh*a' a deadlock was reached over some of the final candidates for the honors. The awarding will possibly be concluded at the next meeting. Names of winners decided upon last night will be withheld from publication until the awarding is completed. Robert Evans was named busi- .._>8s manager of THE PINE for next year after a short period of discussion. Jiih Leonard was the other applicant for the position. Bellwood To Speak At Holbrook May H8 Dean Tom 0. Bellwood will deliver the commencement address for Holbrook High School this year, it was learned here today. The address will be delivered before the largest class in the history of the school. Holbrook’s commencement date is May 28. This morning a student asked me. “What is Rotary?” I suppose this student along with many others had noticed the large number of “happy-go-lucky” Rotarians and Rotary-anns in attendance at the District Contention this weekend. Space does not permit me to answer this question fully. However, perhaps the best way to answer it is to set forth the FOUR OBJECTS OF ROTARY. These are as follows: 1. The development of acq u a i n t s ^ as an opportunity 2. High ethical standards in bvsfaMM and professions; the recognition of the worthiness of sll useful occupations; and the dignifying by each Rotarian of his occupation as anooportun-ity to S E RV E SOCIETY; S. The application of the ideal of service by every Kotarisn to Coffin Heads Class Of ’43, Gibbons Is Vice President A complete slate of officers, with the exception of social manaj was chosen by the sophomore c meeting last night in the cafeteria, with Kenneth Coffin receiving the office of president. Rendol Gibboi w*aS named vice president, Pegg Wagner secretary, and Leo Kc visto treasurer, the last two nan ed being chosen for the second time. Representatives to the student council will be Paul Pertuit and Rene Scott. Following the general meeting, the men of the class elected Warren Ward and Robert Webster as representatives to the council of the Associated Men Students. The social manager will be chosen next fall, according to present plans. ___________ Vote Tomorrow “All students are urged to turn out and vote tomorrow on the list of proposed amendments to the Associated Students constitution,” according to Brewer Ward, president. The election, which had been scheduled for Monday, was postponed in order to alio* completion of the ballots and preparations for the voting. Polls will be located in the usual polling place, in the main front hall of Old Main. Twenty-one co n s t i t u t i o n changes, mostly of minor nature, will be up for consideration. The changes were drawn up by a committee made up of Ann May and George Gleason, and have been previously approved by the student council. Hiking Club To Begin Visit To Grand Canyon Area Tomorrow Women*8 Day Plans Taking Shape; Campus To Go Coed Pushing ahead plans for the celebration of Women’s Day next .Wednesday, May 14. are committee members and members of the 14 club, girls’ service organization founded for the purpose of furthering interest in women’s organizations and Women's Day events.

The eight new members will fill vacancies left by graduating seniors. Olsen Article To Appear In July Marketing Journal An article by Dr. Arden B. 01- n, head of the business education department here, will appear in the July issue of the quarterly Journal of Marketing, published by the American Marketing association, it was announced here last ■eek. Entitled “History of Mormon Mercantile Cooperatives in Utah,” the article traces the history of t h e consumer-cooperatives i d e a from its conception in 1866 thru its being put into operation in 1868, up to its present day activity. Meicantile-'ooperatives, accord-g to Dr. Olsen, reached their peak in the last century, at which time 150 cooperative mercantile institutions were operating in the Utah territory. At the present time, only eight of the establishments are in existence, plus the largest, Zion's Cooperative Mercantile Institution in Salt Lake City, which, with its branch houses, is the largest retail and wholesale institution in the Rocky Mountain area. Gamma Chis Pledge Three New Members Three girls, Reddy Phelan, Jean Condit and Peggy Warner, were pledged into Gamma Chi Beta sorority at four o’clock Sunday afternoon. The formal pledging services were held in tne chapel in Campbell hall and each girl received the pledge pin of crossed arrows which stands for friendship. After pledging services, a Span ish supper held at Martha’s Spanish kitchen was given in honor of the new pledges. Miss Zita Pecen-ka accompanied the group. The pledges will remain as such until later this year when they will become regular members at a formal initiation. Tonight the pledges will attend the sorority’s regular meeting where plans for spring activities will be discussed. Heat, Clocks, Lights: Subjects Of Interest On Choir Tour Boys Pull Strip Tease; Negrette Early Riser That it’s hotter in Phoenix than it is in summer; that it pays to look at the clock when one gets up in the morning; and that two pairs of switches can be worse than one, are some of the ideas brought back by members of the A Cappella Choir, who returned to the campus early Thursday morning, after one of their most strenuous tours on record.

The men were the first to feel the effects of the heat, and to allay the torture somewhat by divesting themselves of their coats, collars and tias. As a strip-tease wasn’t a part of their routine, the women just stood and melted About half-way through the recording, the girls trio gathered around the mike for the first of two scheduled numbers. Just as the first chord was struck there must have been an .extra blast of heat which served as the proverbial straw for V irginia Low-rey, member of the trio, because had happened, Lowrey was stretched out on the soft linoleum of the studio floor, listening to the birdies. All turned out for the best, however. After Lowrey had been revived, an operation which allowed all choir members to cool down to the boiling point, the recording was finished without further incident. In the completed transcription, which was re-broadcast over KFWB, Globe, while the choir was in that station’s studio, there is no trace of the break, due to the skillful cutting on the part of KTAR’s staff. , Dr. Eldon A. (Pop) Ardrey, director of the nationally famous group, in past years has had reasons to be proud of his Bingers’ hotel conduct while on tour. One night this year, however, it looked as though their good conduct record was threatened, and it all came about because Raul (Superman) Negrette didn’t look at the clock when he got up one morning in Safford. “Rip” Van Winkle, choir manager, went to Negrette’s room on the fateful morning with the message that it was time to get up. Negrette, still half-asleep, got up and dressed in double-quick time, under the urgings of Rip, and frantically rushed down to the hotel lobby—only to find that the time was actually an hour or so past midnight. Here's where the threat to the Rip, who had been stationed at advantageous points, were, about this time, unable to restrain th e ir ,.— -.— „ — ------- — mirth any longer, with the result comments once or twice to those that hearty peals of laughter of its mistress.

In the pictures were sequences of students at the school learning the use of Guide Do£>, and how the dogs were trained. The school does not sell its dogs. “When we give a dog to a person,” Miss Hurst said, “it s more than a dog, it’s a pair of eyes.” Measures are taken to insure that the dogs are well taken care of after they leave the school. Miss Hurst’s own Guide Dog was present during the speech, and, in its own language, aidded its own 23 Members Of Group Set For Long Hike Packs are undergoing final testing, blistered feet are being given the final taping, and other last-minute tasks are being completed by the Hiking club, campus recreational and social group, which will begin a five day outing in the Grand Canyon area early tomorrow morning with a trip from here to the Canyon Rim.

Athletic events in which the girls took part were tennis doubles and singles, volleyball, swimming, gym, games, ana folk dancing. All of the sports were non-eluding Pop Ardrey, who promised the choir “a talking to” when morning came. Explanation forestalled any such idea, however, and the principals were completely exonerated. Incidentally, as no complaints were registered, the choir’s conduct record still stands. Two pairs of switches proved to be the Nemesis of Ray Manley, member of the choir’s lighting crew, who will probably hold Miami niph school fondly in his mind for quite awhile for more reasons than one.
