Two Dormitory On Wheels Is Found On East Campus Unique in college housing facili ties, is the dormitory-trailer affair whose owners are Mr. and Mrs. R. L. Putnam, and built by Mr. Put nam himself. The total cost of the affair, says the owner, was about $115.00 in cluding lights, and wiring. Thirty dollars of that amount was for out side labor, and the tires and chassis were taken from a junk pile. The outside of the trailer is made of galvanized metal; the inside is lined with celotex. The trailer is six feet high with a two inch curve in the ceiling, and weighs approxi mately 1,825 pounds. There are four windows, a door, and a ceil ing ventilator. Two cabinets were installed by the owner over the wheels; one is used for clothes, and the other is called a catch-all which can at a moment's notice be converted into a desk. The other furnishings of the room include a studio couch and a dresser. Also one finds an electric heater, a side light over the bed, a table lamp, and an elec tric iron. The way to attend college, Mr. and Mrs. Putnam, parents of two girls, ages eleven and eight who also want a play-house trailer- say is to bring along one’s own house, thereby guaranteeing perfect quiet f^SS.

WATSON FINDS INTERESTS VARY FROM AVIATION TO FARMING Although the proceedings of the faculty meetings are usually shrouded in great obscurity and jealously guarded by that so-called august body, one bit of the busi ness of the meeting last Monday has-transpired, i.e., a report of the vocational aims of West Georgia freshmen compiled by Mr. Gordon Watson. At the suggestion of President Ingram, Mr. Watson has made these figures available for publica tion. The purposes of the study, Mr. Watson states, were to determine the number of freshmen indicating preferences for various vocations, to determine the most popular vo cations, to establish a basis for vocational guidance, and to determ ine the average intelligence quo tient of each group. The figures for the last item are not available for publication. The results of the research work, carefully and systematically com piled from cards filled out at the opening of school, says the Eng lish head, are in part indicated be low: Forty-four freshmen undecided; fifty-two indicated a preference for teaching; five for law; four for the ministry; two for medicine; two for pharmacy; one for dentistry; eight for strictly business pursuits; four for farming; three for library work; four for journalism; two for dramatics, and six for engineering. Three listed chemistry as their plans; one, apparently air-minded, chooses aviation; thirty-two for home economics, one for dietetics; and one for forestry. It was found that not a single co-ed indicated a preference home making. Mr. Watson says that these men may make what use they will of this last information. Students Participate In V . R . A . Sunday Differing from the usual pro grams this week’s Voluntary Re ligious Association meeting, on Sunday Oct. 11 at five o’clock, was taken part in solely by students interested in these religious exer cises. Nell Clegg opened the meeting, at which many persons were pres ent, by a reading of the Scripture. This was followed by a prayer con ducted by Rachel Hunt and the an nouncement of the subject “How Jesus Would Like Us To Develop Physically, Mentally, Socially, and Emotionally”,* by Miss Katie Downs. The physical viewpoint was presented by Allyn Gunn; the men tal by Dan Brewster; and the so cial and emotional by Miss Win ette White. Each told the ways in which these traits aided towards the first development of an indi vidual. Jack Huckaby, accompanist, played Handel’s “Largo”, Nevin’s “Buena Notte” and Mendelssohn’s “March of the Priests” during the course of the program. Elizabeth Strange was in charge of the program. Have You Noticed? By BETTY ANN SEWELL The thirteen boy buoycotters on the campus like the thirteen orig inal colonies seem to think that they have not only neatly cocked their eyebrows, but have also pro duced in their victims a feeling that they have aimed and fired them. That they are original, one doesn’t deny; in fact we know of no other college campus that has a club of this sprt, but whether their victims (meaning the girls) have grown shakey or despondent about it, is another matter. In fact from all the information we can weed out among the fairer sex, none of them seems to g ! ve a “hoot.” The writer is taking it for grant ed that the reader knows all abvc.t the bouyeot club. However, for the benefit of those who do not — there are thirteen charter mem bers. Each member is supposed to wear a red tie every Thursday arid to march from one end of the dining hall to the other and out the door once a week. The crowning point of the club and the point that has been so discussed is the member’s attitude toward the girls of the campus. They have agreed that if any member asks any girl for a date and she refuses, then she will be planked down on what they call the black list. If any girl is so unfortunate as to be placed on this list then she, like the daughters of the French artistocrats march ing up for slaughter, is denied the extreme pleasure of dating or danc ing with any one of the members for a whole month . . . some punishment! We hope that the boys are not quite foolish enough to believe we care; we hope that they pay their precious little dues on time though we have our doubts about it, and last of all we hope some of the elder and more learned members of the club knock off their big toes some night while attending call meetings.

FOLSOM’S DRESS SHOPPE 3)4 Newnan Street Carrollton, Ga. West Georgia College Has National Fraternity Although only three years old, West Georgia College has a nation al fraternity. At a meeting of the board of trustees at Atlantic City in Decem ber, 1932, a national social science honor society for junior colleges was authorized. This new society was incorporated in the District of Columbia in 1933 by authorities at the Catholic University. The name of the society was Phi Sigma Alpha which was suggested by Dr. S. Howard Patterson is formed from the initials of the Greek words “Lovers of the Knowledge of Man.” The Phi Sigma Alpha has the same general purposes that the Pi Gamma Mu has in the senior colleges and universities. It is, however, a separate organization and operates under a separate cor porate charter. Also it is united with the publication of “Social Sci ence” and in the program sessions of their biennial sessions. The first chapter was organized at Santa Ana Junior College, San ta Ana, California. The president of the Phi Sigma Alpha on the West Georgia College campus is Howard Handley; the vice-presi dent is Owen Malcolm, and the secretary-treasurer is PhilHp Jones.
