We Are Ready to ormer Weber Lies L noose Coming; School Year DROP IN COLLEGE BOOK STORE Career Dean . . . MISS MAE WELLING New Dean of Women Cites Social Views By MAE WELLING Weber college has always been known as a school where everyone is a good friend. This is due to several different factors. One of them is that the school is small and the teachers are personally interested in every student. Another reason is that Weber offers a wonderful activity program that is broad enough to include the interests of every student. No matter in what vein a student's interest lies, we feel that here at Weber we can help him develop that interest, whether it be mechanical, musical, literary artistic, domestic or athletic. There is one paramount thing to remember. We must be doers and not "spectators" in order to gain the full amount of satisfac tion and development. We have a full calendar of social events scheduled for this year, which will prove enjoyable to all Weber students.Let's make our motto this year "Knowledge and activity keep our minds active, for an active mind makes us a coveted friend." President Dixon Speaks to Weber Faculty Weber college faculty were honored at a breakfast Monday morn ing, September 21, at nine a. m in the college cafeteria. President H. A. Dixon, greeted the group in his pleasing genial manner, following which the invocation was offered by Royden C. Braithwaite, new institute instruc tor. The program consisted of the following numbers: Two vocal numbers, "Ah Sweet Mystery of Life," and "I'm an American," were offered by Jay Olsen, Weber student. The highlight of this affair was the talk entitled, "Priorities in Education at Weber College," given by Dr. Christian Jensen, member of the Brigham Young university English department Smartness!

Irene Bushell has been tentatively appointed editor, with Dave Meyer her assistant. Both appointments have yet to be made official by the board of control.It is planned that the new mag azine will present a quarter by quarter review of school activities in both picture and editorial content. This does not mean, of course, that the literary material which occupied so prominent a space in Scribulus will be neglected, nor that the excellent art work done by students and faculty will be eliminated, Miss Bushell indicated, but only that the combined publication will attempt to rival the best features of both magazine and yearbook. No staff has been selected as yet, but the editors hope that many members of last year's staffs will return to school and continue their work on the magazine. Short stories, poems, articles, photographs, and art work are desired, and heads will be chosen to oversee work in these forms. A makeup editor will also be selected to replace Helen Malley, picked last spring but not returning to school this year, it is reported; also a business manager and circulation manager. The magazine will feature photo graphs of athletic activities, dances, campus personalities, and clubs, as well as writeups concerning members of the faculty, alumni, and student body. The editors state that this year's freshman class is particularly invited to apply for positions on the staff, and they request that all students who are interested make out a brief appli cation, indicating position desired as well as their high school ex perience (though experience is not necessary to qualify), and hand it to Miss Bushell, Meyer, or Mr. Ray B. West, Jr., faculty ad viser. Since a great deal of work is required in publishing this type of magazine, the editors hope that all students wishing to join th staff will get their applicaions in as earlyl as possible. The first sue is tentatively scheduled for late in November. Ogden Stake Is Scene of Phoenix Party Phoenix, showing the first sign of activity on the part of any men's club at Weber college, held a rush party Saturday, September 12 at Ogden Stake Camp at the mouth of South Fork canyon. With President Donald Shaub in charge of arrangements 20 rushees were treated in grand style to corn on the cob and barbecued steaks in the lodge of the camp which was hitherto untouched by male feet. After the corn, both verbal and edible, was disposed of a short meeting was called to order in front of the open fire. Here the rushees intro aucea tnemseives' after which a report of club activities was given by the president and Harvey Wheelwright. Rain which kept the party confined to the cabin, proved to be a streak of luck for the more apt poker sharks. Members present were: Joe We-dell, Harvey Wheelwright, Willis Wynn, Wayne Carver, Roy Gibson, Attention, Freshmen: Freshmen, beware! When you time there are many rules you must freshmen students. Don't walk in the front doors of the buildings on the campus; insignificant freshmen should take the back entrance. Be on the safe side and wear inconspicuous clothes. Bright clothes on freshies draw too much attention. Above all, when you go to assemblies sit in the back seats of the auditorium, not in the front seats. If a sophomore asks you to open a door for him, do as you are told. Don't hesitate! "He who hesitates is lost" We sophomores like to be humored by all you eager freshmen, who are willing to relieve us of our heavy burdens, (books!) Little green hats are just the thing for you green freshies pay a nickel or a dime and get one from the coed counselors is a fair warning! If you accidentally wear bright clothing, don't be surprised if we give you something more becoming maybe a gunny sack or barrel. Don't forget to learn all school songs and yells, especially the school hymn. This is fair warning to all freshies: "Don't live up to your name." (freshmen!. (Signed) Someone who knows from experience. P. S. Don't be alarmed! We sophomores survived this ordeal in one piece. (But at times we wondered). Sincerely, DOROTHY CARDON.

Complete Stock on Hand at Present 338 25th Street Dial 2-0992 Coed Counselors Are Hostesses By DOROTHY CARDON Where to go? What to do? How to get acquainted? These will probably be some of the questions that will race through your hazy brains, freshmen, alter thatnever-to-be-forgotten first-quarter registration period that will prelude your new college life. If that's all you are worried about, girls, relax! Your troubles are over, for loom-in gat your side for the first few difficult weeks will be a sophomore co-ed counselor, commonly known as a big sister. Two friendly, vivacious girls have been selected from each social club and several unaffiliated students are being honored by the Associated Women Students to act as guide and hostess to freshmen girls. Fifteen sophomore girls have been chosen by the group to inform Miss Mae Welling, adviser, as to the success of the groups. Co-captains will have the responsibility of seein gthat each counselor's group is functioning properly and efficiently. The remaining 12 girls will have a group of freshmen under them. Their duties will be to acquaint new students with teachers, students, buildings and parts of college routines; escort the girls to assemblies and eat lunch wit hthem. When are you going to meet these super-women and how will you know them? During registra tion, if you become puzzled as to which place to sign your name for the thirty-second time, a co-ed counselor, a girl wearing a green beanie with co-ed printed in white, is very likely to be close by to lend a helping hand. You will probably be informed by mail or word of mouth as to whom your big sisted will be. On the second of October your escort to the freshman orientation assembly will also be your big sister. So you can be able to remember the girls in your own group, a symbol such as an apple, paper doll, or a banana, with the owner's name on it, will be worn by every freshman girl. Parties will be planned for members of each group so your acquaintances will be enlarged. After school has been in progress for about three weeks the A. W. S. will hold the annual big sister party to climax the orientation of the freshmen girls into college life. Costumes will be worn by all sophomores, freshmen and teachers. Games, skits and refreshments will furnish the evening's entertainment. Co-ed counselors are the following girls: Edna Litchfield, captain; Lorraine Dame, co-captain; Mary Olsen, co-captain; Lorraine Aldous, Carolyn Hobsor Verla Bingham, Betty Govern, Alice Hodges, Kay Huss, Evelyn Applonie, Pauline Black, Maxine Whitaker, Eloise McKay, Kathryn Brough, and La-rene Jensen.

Mrs. Hall resigned to devote her full time to her wor kas registrar. Miss Welling, who assumed her responsibilities this summer, said, "To say that I like my work is putting it mildly, for while It is a great undertaking, it is a very pleasant one. I have always been very much interested in working with young women. And my plans and activities are all under way, so that I am looking forward to a most successful year." Girls Are Going Chanodo Social Members Cite Year's Program In spite of numerous activities Chanodo girls have found time to promote friendliness among themselves and their acquaintances.

On the night of August 27, with a made-to-order full moon, Chanodo girls made Ver Dene Webb's charming backyard more beautiful with colored lights, a large table covered with a filmy white cloth and centered with a gorgeous bouquet of white and yellow gladiolis.
