Something for everyone ? not just astronomy students. "Whether you are in science or not has nothing to do with it ? the reason to come is because you are going to see something interesting," said physics/math junior Kent Broome, a staff member. Astronomy Director John Safko says most students are curious about what is going on in the world, and because of this the observatory is a good source of information, whether you are taking the course or not. The observatory was set up in 1928 by Edwin Seibels as a memorial to William Davis Melton, once president of the university. eadline weekend And finally, there will be a jazz concert at the Knights of Columbus Hall on 1623 Marion St. on Sunday. Tom Wix will open, and a jam session will include Joe King on trombone, Eldon Jones on trumpet and Ed McCravy on banjo.

"We're always looking for a place to colonize, especially in a lew state or region, and USC is a *ood school with a great greek eputation," Patrick Gibbons, diector of Program Development for he fraternity, said. The Delta Tau Deltas are comng into Rush a week behind the ither fraternities because they lon't want to "step on the.toes" of he other fraternities, but Gibbons s still optimistic. "We offer a chance for these piys to be founders, to set the ityle they want for the fraternity," le said. "We also think there are ;uys out there, especially juniors ind seniors, who are interested in rreek life, but for whatever reason, lidn't rush. Now they can."

If their rush goes anything like the Kappa Alpha Theta's rush went, Gibbons will have no trouble filling that quota. The Kappa Alpha Theta's, America's first women's greek organization, pledged 128 new members. Kappa Alpha Theta Charter Director Lynda Fairman says they've got the diversity they need. "We need upperclassmen for their maturity and guidance, and we need freshmen for their longevity," she said. Sophomore Tracy Smith says she leaned toward Kappa Alpha Theta at first because she was at band camp and didn't have time for the other sororities' rush. "I think it's really neat to be able to say someday, T started that colony,"' she said. Sophomore Charlene Pasker liked the newness of the fraternity too. "There weren't any stereotypes. Of course someday I hope they'll say 4Oh?they're the smart ones' and stuff like that about us," she said. "We haven't done much yet because we're still getting organized I guess, but I think it's going to be really neat. We get to make it what we want it to be," sophomore Elizabeth Harris said.
