elta Sigma CAMPUS COURSE Now that three or four weeks of actual school are all that's left of the perfectly good semester we started off with-time can be taken to put "spring" into the words that are the copy for this column. A week ago to-night an inestimable number swung out with the Sigma Nu'F at the Jefferson. It was pre ceded by a banquet .for the Sigma Nu's and afterwards the dancers were entertained at various parties till the wee small hours. The Grand March, in a new arrangement, was led by Rannah Heyward and Coit Hendley. To add to the speciul no break after the Grand March Bessie Heyward sang in a very special way their fraternity song, "The Sweetheart of Sigma Nu. Now is the time of year for teas, parties and picnics and all the sororities are planning end-of-the-term get-togethers and most of *them out-of-doors. Thursday afternoon the Kappa Kappa Kappa's entertained the patronesses and mothers of the members of the sorority as well as all other sorority girls at a lovely tea at Fay Reyner's. It was from four thirty to six o'clock. Last Sunday night the pledges of Tri Kappa gave their active sorority sisters a supper banquet at Bihari's. Last Thursday night the Delta Zeta's had a ever so pleasant barn dance out at George's Pond. Some really good costumes came out of the idea and the dance was so informal the fun was spread to all. The refreshments were in tune with the party. The Pi Beta Phi's have elected their officers for the com ing year. Ray Overton was reelected president, Billie Coffee, vice-president; Elinor Brand, corresponding secretary; Char lotte Burch, recording secretary; Jane Cox, treasurer; Irene Mars, Pan-Hellenic representative. They are having a joint meeting of pledges and actives with supper served next Mon day. Dink Gaines has been invited to speak to them. The Chi Omega's are planning to have a picnic to take ad vantage of the lovely weather. It is set for Wednesday after noon and the scene will be Heise's Pond. Last Friday night four of the chapter went down to the Chi Omega Formal at Charleston. The lucky girls were Marion Jean Campbell, Eva Abbott, Jeanet,e Watts and Edith Ford. They had a wonder ful time and say it was well worth the trip. The Art Exhibit opens May twelfth with all the work of this year's crop of students on display. This year it's going to be held in the new Art rooms on second floor of Flinn Hall. Lots of good work has beenl done this year and then, too, the exhibits of the Costume Design and Interior Decoration classes will be an entirely iew section of the exhibit. Thp Art. De partment here is by far the most outstanding in this section of the country and it will be well worth any student's time to trot over and see the accomplishments set forth. A. 1).

At last-at long last-it seems that there will be a varsity show this year . . . and with all the rehearsals and all the people in it, it should be interesting, and perhaps good. For one thing, you'll like that little torch ballad, "'I've Simply Gotta Have a Man.'' It has a tune that strangely enough goes with the title and Bessie Heyward has the job of putting over lyrics by Ellen Verner and Jeanette Propst. The tune wvas by Max Husbands and Charlie Murtiashaw. Other contributions currently ''ooed'' and ''ahed'' over in clude "I 'd Rather Be Alone With You," "Idle Dreams," "Gas hlouse Moll," which incidentally are only three of at least a dlozen originals featured in the show. (Note: Thank heavens, none of the composers attempt to sing.) That's all. B8. OriginsaA .bid#sties. - Let CABANISS furnish your next after noon or evening dress . CA B ANISS C O. 1687 MAIN ST.
