WORLD
By LYNN BREWER
Staff Writer
Star light, star bright, what's going
on at the observatory Monday
night?
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.

cord of ever making the lens, se- 1
nior staff member Mike Emrick t
said.
Although labs are sometimes i
taught there, it is open to anyone. (
Special experimental observatory (
classes are also set up for the ad- t
vanced students who want to con- i
tinue their study of astronomy.
Staff members seem to be de- ^
voted to their work and hope to s
spread some of their enthusiasm to \
other students. "It is the best place ^
to learn about the universe," s
Broome said. ^

Men's, women's frats ai

Two fraternities ? one for men
and one for women ? have arrived
at USC.

founders, and like USC's newest
women's fraternity, Kappa
A.lpha Theta, the Delts are excited
to be here.
"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."
The Delts plan to pledge anyvhere
from 20 to 50 new mem>ers.

that is manageable since we're just
starting off," Gibbons said.
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.
