Tennis Tournament Is On Spring List Anyone for tennis? This urgent SOS is being sent up by the Sports department. A tennis tournament will be held some time in April at Milliken university in Decatur, 111. All girls who are interested in play ing and asked to contact Mary Buckley. Two students starred in sports events during the past weeks, merit ing trophies and aching muscles, as the case may be. Carole Ann Bauer, secretary of the Riding club, won two trophies, one for Ladies Equitation and one for Pair class, at the New Parkway Horse show, March 13. Not a horse but skis supported Frances Theisen, who spent a week end at Mount Telemark, Cable, Wisconsin, who describes the world of slopes and slalom thus: At 5 :30 a.m. we stepped down from the train into a foot and a half of snow and boarded a bus for Cable. It was 20 below, but I didn't feel the cold because the air is dry. A little seven-year-old boy told me that he had been skiing since he was two. So I told myself, 'If he can do it. I can,' and I went up. We skied all day, using a steel cable called a 'tow' which pulls peo ple up to the top of the mountain. One girl didn't hold tight enough and got tangled up like a boy scout knot. You know the old joke about skiers breaking their legs? Well it's not a joke. As we were com ing clown the slope a girl fell and broke her leg. Within a minute, a member of the ski-patrol was at her side with a toboggan. He strapped her to it, picked it up, and skied down a half mile of slopes at 70 miles per hour. Couple of minutes later a siren on the am bulance was blowing and she was on her way to the hospital. For those who survived, it was wonderful, exciting, exhilarating. I hope we have a skiing weekend for students next year. Mexico Comes To Club Via Films Movies of University City in Mexico, the Basilica of Guadalupe, the Cathedral of Taxco, and a color ful and exciting bullfight were pre sented on March 11 to the Spanish club by Claire Weiner and Marcella Peterson, recently returned from Mexico. Miss Peterson spoke about note worthy sights, Mexican customs, and the overwhelming friendliness of the native people. Quanta Club Asks, Will Atom Warfare Be Right Or Wrong? The Ides of March was an omin- mous day for the ancient Romans and it used to be an ominous day for people who paid income tax. This year it was an illuminating day for members of the Quanta club, who met to consider the mor ality of using nuclear weapons in the event of another war. Arlene Halko, club president, presented Lorraine Gavreau, who opened discussion of the problem, and outlined some of the arguments for and against atomic warfare. SAC Speaks Up About Student Discussions, Applause, Examinations Our meeting with the Faculty last Tuesday was an interesting and informative one. We consid ered the problems brought up at our student discussion assembly and we have come up with some possible solutions and some good answers to these problems. Our next discussion assembly will be on April 12. We ask you to come to the meeting with any con structive criticisms or suggestions that you may have. The important thing to remember is that these are not gripe sessions, but a chance to discuss intelligently the difficulties that we are bound to meet as students. There are two sides to every story, as we well know, and, most of the time, when we understand the reasons for rules, we become much less critical, or find that we have no problem at all. This is what we hope to accomplish at dis cussion meetings. And it is our job to encourage better under standing between the Faculty and the student body; to present your ideas in an effective way so that Faculty and students will benefit from them. * * * Our thanks and congratulations to the Woman's Auxiliary and to the students who planned the high-, ly successful St. Patrick's Day Dinner. A bit of old Ireland came out in all who attended the dinner. * * * We hope the new examination schedule has given you more time to study, without the additional burden of assignments for other classes. If you have any com ments, adverse or commendatory, write them and place them in the SAC suggestion box. * * * The Student Activities Council extends best wishes to the Facul ty and to the student body for a happy and restful Easter Vaca tion.
