New Proposal
Of Panhellenic
Is Announced
Appointment Of Officers,
Will Replace Elections;
Membership Amended
Appointment of Panhellenic officers
by the executive council instead of
election by the Panhellenic Council
was proposed as an amendment to
the Constitution of Panhellenic Asso-
ciation at-a meeting of the Council;
held at 4:15 p.m. yesterday at the
League.
Under the present system the offi-
cers of the Association are chosen by
nomination and election by the Pan-
hellenic Council which is composed of
delegates from the 18 sororities on
campus. According to an amendment
made last fall announcement of the
officers so elected will be made at
the time of announcement of appoint-
ments to the League Council.
Candidates To Petition
The proposal, as made yesterday
by Barbara Bassett, '40, president
of Panhellenic, would provide for
petitioning and interviewing for the
offices with final appointment by
the outgoing executive council.
"The proposed amendment would
mean that the President of Panhell-
enic can work with the Judiciary
Council so that there will be rio con-
flict between Panhellenic and League
Council appointments," Miss Bassett
said.
A greater representation of the
sororities in the offices would be a
second advantage, she added.
Change In Membership
Proposal of an amendment to
change the membership of Panhell-
enic Council was also made at the
meeting. The membership now con-
sists of president, rushing chairman
and assistant rushing chairman of
the respective houses. According to
the amendment the membership
would consist of president, assistant
rushing chairman and a specially
elected Panhellenic delegate.
"Specially elected Panhellenic dele-
gates could be chosen with the idea
of their being possible officers of the
association," Miss Bassett pointed
out.
The amendments will be voted on
at the next regular meeting of the
Council which will be held Wednes-
day, March 27.
The present executive council of
Panhellenic is composed of Miss Bas-
sett, Jean Thompson, '40, treasurer;
Frances Kahrs, '40, secretary, and'
Beth O'Roke, '40, rushing secretary.

Stripes, Polka Dots
Add Extra Glamour
Butcher Boy pajamas have regained
their former place in the limelight
of fashion, and should thus be a nec-
essary part of every college woman's
wardrobe.

as we are living in a world of "Keep-
ing up with the Jones's" our glamour
must not stop the minute we slip in-
to bed. And so the answer to a maid-
en's prayer of how to be well pa-
jameed is the new. striped or polka
dotted creations. These dashing night
clothes offer that feeling of comfort,
relaxation and enjoyment as well as
being very serviceable.
