ODK To Hold Elections May 10; Honor Point List Is Published Omicron Delta Kappa national leadership fraternity will hold its spring semester elections May 10, President Morris Mazursky said today. Omicron Delta Kappa, or "ODK" as it is popularly called, was founded in 1914 at Washington and Lee College. Since then, it has grown to the second largest national fraternity of its kind, having almost 50 chapters, or circles, at leading American colleges and uni versities throughout the nation. The purpose of the fraternity is to give recognition and encourage ment to those who have reached a proficiency in student activities. It encourages leadership in athletics, scholarship, publications, so cial and religious activities. The local Chi Circle was founded in 1928 under the leadership of Prof. Havilah Babcock. Its principal contributions to the University have been the brick walks and the ODK circle near the new library. To be elected to the fraternity, a candidate must have earid 100 honor points and be voted in by the active chapter. Members of Chi Circle are Bill Hutchinson, Roy Bass, Norman West, Morris Mazur sky, Kinloch Bull, Bill Thrasher, Don Singletary, Doug Smith, and John Reese. Several revisions and additions have been made in the honor point list, and President Mazursky said that the new members would be chosen according to the new list. A formal banquet is being planned by the fraternity for the men who are elected in the forthcoming election. The banquet will be held sometime in May.

The University treasurer , George Helow, Toni Simpson, USC Chief Operator Tells Experiences "Although the trip was wonder ful it is good to he hack home," said Mlrs. Robert Spears Dugan, chief operator at the telephone exchange of the University of South Carolina. Mrs. Dugan returned recently from K trip to California where she said good-bye to her son who has left for duty in the Pacific Ocean. Mr. and Mrs. Dugan left on March 22 for Augusta. There they had hoped to take a plane to Chicago, but a few minutes before the plane's departure, their reservations were cancelled. After a good many con plications, the Dugans finally boarded a train. After four clays of traveling, during which they made many friends among the other pas sengers, they arrived in California. Everywhere they went, Mr. and Mrs. Dugan found the people friend ly and very interested in the lact that they were meeting South Caro linians. In the Orchid Room of the California Hotel, the waitress asked the orchestra to play "Carolina Moon." Mrs. Dugan said that al 'hWi)h Westerners do speak quite differently from us, they seem to be the same sort of good-natured friendly people that we find in outh Carolina. Mr. Dugan had planned to go leep-sea fishing. lie was rather surprised to discover that birth cer ificate, finger-prints and a photo ire required in order to obtain a icense. To his disappointment he ad to give up the idea of catching tome giant fish in the Pacific Ocean. Mr. and Mrs. Dugan visited San Diego, Hollywood and even spent a few hours in .raxlco, where th:y ad an opportunity to remember ,vhat steaks look and taste like. Outside the fact of seeing th;ei ;on, who was known as "Sonny" imong his fellow students at. the University, the greatest thrill of the journey was probably a visit to Mr. [)ugan's brother-the first visit In 18 yeairs. The brothers hardly rec >gnized each other, andI, of couirse, here was much to tell. B3y a lucky accident the Duigans net L.ieut. and Mi's. John Ellis, old ~riends fiom the University.

C. E PRINTS, MIMEGRAPH Lt. Golding Repla Advisor of Salvo, No Sudden Boom, Or Depression After War Says Waterfall "W- must avoid a flash boom if we want to keep from having a depression after the war," accord ing to Dr. C. II. Waterfall of the economics departnent. The economists of this country know enough to avoid a depression like the one after the first World War, he continued, but the danger is that the people might not coop erate. The death of President Roosevelt might affect the chances of avoid ing a depression in that he had such great ability In putting his ideas across to the people, Doctor Waterfall believes. However, some times a person's ideas and programs are put over better after his death, because the people are shocked into accepting them in respect for him. Doctor Waterfall believes that the danger of a depression lies in the fact that the public after peace comes, will be too eager to throw off all controls. This would cause a flash boom which is a sudden and temporary prosperity, and this would be followed by a depression. The continuance of high taxes and rationing even after peace comes, although the public won't like it, seems to be the only way to avoid a widespread depression. project, working every Tuesday from 4-7 p.m. There are many more jobs that the students of the University could do, if some campus organiza tion would undertake it as one of their projects. Joyce Hetzel, execu tive secretary of the campus YWCA, urges each student organization to consider this for future work.
