VOTE DEMOCRATICALLY Elections for student officers are coming right soon, and it has been brought to the editor's attention that during one recent election a group of students "stuffed" the ballot box. This kind of action seems hardly fair to the student body or the candidates. If we're supposed to conduct our elections democratically let's do just that. Otherwise there isn't any point in even voting at all. Let's make our student officers the choice of ALL the, student body. Cast your vote, wisely, freely, and most of all, democratically. Judy Johnston 'Best Dressed Girl' By BILL MURDOCH The Alpha Rho Omega "Best Dressed Girl' contest came to a climax two weeks ago (April 9th) when the winner was announced on the club's annual assembly. The assembly was a parody on "Dragnet," dealing with two detectives searching for the missing "Best Dressed Girl." . After an extensive search the two detectives came to the conclusion that the missing girl was nowhere on earth. Then a flying saucer landed and brought in the five candidates. No wonder they couldn't find her, the Best Dressed Girl was "out of this world." Although all the girls were dressed exquisitely, Judy Johnston was chosen winner, and was given an engraved gold locket and bracelet. LECTURE FOR WOMEN United Air Lines has invited the women of Weber College to a showing of a color-sound motion picture entitled "Scotty Wins Her Wings'', on April 15, 11 a. m., in the auditorium.

SUBMITTED BY O. M. CLARK What is it man loves more than life, Hates worse than death or mortal strife, That which the contented man desires, The poor man has; the rich requires,The miser spends; the spendthrift saves, And all men carry to their graves? (The answer? O. M. says "It's really nothing"). IRAN LECTURE A three-year stay in Iran was recounted last week for Weber students and parents by Dr. George Stewart, Ogdenite, who recently returned from there.

Hot Lead Spring has sprung, you've heard the phrase Sun and rain and lazy days. Fall in love, walk on the air Bill and coo, gosh, we don't care. Spring is sprung, birds on the wing Earthworms blink and crickets sing. Boys go fishing, profs get this! That is why the students miss. Spring is sprung, my head gets woozy H-Q-R and double 2-Z Cats and dogs, and Little Beaver Lemme out! I've got SPRING FEVER!

Let's take a look. Lila is a '53 graduate of Weber High School majoring in general education. Outstanding for her brisk energy and initiative, she was selected as a cheer leader of A.W.S. council.Lila's plans, after receiving her diploma from Weber, will include her desire to continue her education at the A. C. Coming under the heading of pastimes, dancing, sports and music rank among her favorites. You have, then, five feet four inches of friendliness, liveliness, vivaciousness only three of the ingredients in the make-up of the talented "Freshman Queen" alias Lila Allen. I No sense in "weighting" when you can wear Plateau Slacks The Slacks with the weightless feel ... Balanced Tailored by Timely Clothes $23.95 ANYTHING GOES SPRING IS WE.WL By SIG PONT Spring is here! You might want to disagree with that on account of all that winter weather we had recently. But I know it's spring; there are signs. Some of the signs of spring are the ones that say, "Keep Off the Grass". Another sign of spring is that you don't get a snowball in your car window as you pass Central Jr. High School. I had enough snow in my car to rent it out for a cold storage locker. Liberace knows it is spring, too. The other morning his teeth got up and brushed themselves. Oh, Liberace! Say, I finally thought up a point in his favor. His name could be very handy. The next time you stub your toe or get into any situation where you need an exclamation, instead of saying 'Hell" or "Damn" or whatever it is you usually say, come out with "Oh, Liberace'1. That way you not only save yourself from maybe saying something embarrassing, but you add another word to your vocabulary.But I understand he is very enterprising. The other night a string broke on his piano during a number, so he finished playing on his teeth. Man, that's what I call presence of mind. But we mustn't get off the subject we were discussing, the signs of spring. The Juiciest And I want to tell you what really convinced me that spring has arrived. The other day I walked into a grocery store and saw two oranges squeezing their own juice. Red Convert Oh, before I forget, I have a letter I think I'd better answer before somebody goofs. Dear Sig Pont: All year I've been seeing this beautiful 1954 fire engine red Pon-tiac convertible around school, with wire wheels even yet. I want to know how I go about getting an introduction to the girl that drives it. Cat Car Crazy. Dear CC: I hate to disillusion you, but I did a little checking, and the girl who drives it is married. Of course, if details like that don't bother you, you can try. One way of insuring a meeting is to both to get to an intersection at the same time and not see the stop sign. Naturally, I can't say how pleasant the meeting will be, but that's the chance you take. To Be or Not To nothing lounge? The question asked around the campus this week is interesting if ciac. juu li nun. weuer college snouia nave a boys i v Janet Koldewyn Yeah, it would be a good place for the girls to spend their spare time. At least they would know where to find the boys when they were missing. They've got equal rights for women, why not have equal rights for men, too? Lynn Gwyther No, I would rather share the girl's lounge. Boy's lounges wouldn't be any fun with just boys around. The only thing I would need a lounge for is sleeping, but I guess that would-n't make much f! differences if we ' shared the girl's ' lounge. i- - 1 ?C" J Ken Hull A boy's lounge is necessary because they use the girl's lounge for playing cards anyway. It is not as necessary as having a girl's lounge, though, because boys don't have to doll-up and stuff. Barbara Rasmus-sen No, I don't think Weber College should have a boy's lounge. If we did have one, all the boys would go there all the time and play poker, and the girls would never see them at all. Then, it would make Weber seem like a girl's school. i mm emYotir Colorf ml .i.
