fissembly Organization Builds Plan
For Consolidation of Independents
_ ___ _ _
Assembly is planning a program
for next year to unify all indepen-
dent women on campus and to ac-
quaint them with their opportunities
in activities.
"Independent Fortnight", a series
of events designed to familiarize in-
dependent women with the purpose
and organization of Assembly, inter-
viewing and petitioning processes,
and all activities, will begin with a
mass rally held on the Monday of
the third week of the fall term. Dean
Alice Lloyd, Miss Ethel MacCormick,
and members of the Assembly Board
will be introduced.
Assembly Board To Visit Houses
During the next two weeks the
Assembly Board will visit every dor-
mitory, auxiliary dormitory and lea-
gue house, presenting talks and skits.
In many instances the residents of
the houses will be combined so there
will be fewer houses to visit.
The climax of Independent Fort-
night will be Recognition Night when
all independents will honor their
classmates who have made outstand-
ing records in scholarship and activi-
ties.
Recognition Night Committee1
Helen Alpert, Assembly president,
recently announced the members of
Central Committee for Recognition
Night. Ellen Hill, Martha Cook, is
General Chairman, while Margery
Harrington, Betsy Barbour, is Assis-
tant Chairman. Publicity will be
handled by Dolores Massey, Stock-
well, while Alice Berberian, Stock-
well, will be program chairman. Fran-
ces Popkins, Stockwell, is finance
chairman, and Margaret Thompson,

ted by Carmelita Fisher, Betsy Bar-
bour. Judith Pregerson of Tappan
House is Ticket Chairman, and
Shirley Hansen, Martha Cook, is in
charge of War Activity awards, with
Norma Coppersmith on her commit-
tee. Sarah Simons, Stockwell, will

Trimpeter and Betty Rosenblum are
member of the Ticket committee.
At Recognition Night an appren-
tice speaker will be heard, Wyvern,
Mortarboard, and Senior Societies
will present skits, and Senior Society
will tap new members. This will be
the only all-independent affair spon-
sored by Assembly, and it is hoped
that every independent woman on
campus will attend.
Membership Cards Added
In order to give women tangible
evidence of their membership in As-
sembly, membership cards will be
introduced, and the Assembly song
will be used more extensively next
year.
Assembly plans for new social ac-
tivities next year include league
house dances, intra-dormitory par-
ties, bridges, and teas.
"We have an enthusiastic Board
for next year and each one of us is
willing to work very hard toward
making Assembly a strong and active
organization of which every inde-
pendent can be proud, but an organi-
zation is only as strong and active
as its members," Helen Alpert, As-
sembly president, said.
"If all independents give us their
full support and cooperation, we
promise them the best year Assembly
has ever had," Miss Alpert concluded.

Latest Swim Suits
Feature Gay Prints;
Novel Sarong Skirts
"Brief-but-beautiful" is the idea
which has been followed through by
designers in the 1945 parade of bath-
ing suits, and the new models are
perfect for either a swim or a tan
session.
Most of the new suits are two piece
and feature baby pants, diaper-drap-
ed skirts, or a sarong wrapped skirt,
borrowed from South Sea sirens.
Checked and flowered suits are in the
limelight and may be obtained in
such exciting combinations of color
as blue with fuchsia, pink, aqua, or
lime with black, and ice-blue with
royal.
The one piece princess style suit
is still in style for the more con-
servative, and can be found in either
cotton or sharkskin Solid colors
predominate in this type of Wuit and
white or sunshine yellow is especially
attractive. A new one-piecer, how-
ever, is highlighted with bands of
brightly colored print on a white
background.

Voluntary Honor Code To Replace
Contact Rules in Formal Rushing
BEST FOOT FORWARD
Contact rules during the pre-for-
mal rushing period have been com-
pletely abolished, according to a
recent announcement by Nancy Jef-
ford, Panhellenic rushing chairman.
"They were abolished because we
want independent and sorority women,
to have as much free contact as pos-
sible, as much as they normally would
if rushing were non-existent." Miss
Jefford continued.
Because the formal rushing period
will be deferred until the second
semester, all sororities will abide by
an honor system during the first
semester, and this voluntary honor
.code will govern all contact between
sorority women and prospective rush-
ees;
Newly appointed members of the
Panhellenic rushing council include
Rita Kallman, Sigma Delta Tau; Lois
Cothran, Alpha Chi Omega; Lou
Wellman, Zeta Tau Alpha; Monna
