STEADY NOW-These might be the words of advice Abby Funk,
outgoing president of the Women's Athletic Association, is offer-
ing the organization's new president, Nancy Fitch, who is prac-
tising putting on the WAB grounds. Both women are very active
in campus activities, but show a special aptitude in the athletic
field.
VERSATILE WOMEN:
Retiring WAA Head Leaves
Position To Capable Officer

Senior Coed
Has Busy Life
As President
By MARILYN CAMPBELL
While many citizens are argu-
ing "Should the United States
hav a woman president?" the Uni-
versity's woman president, Nancy
Watkins, head of the literary col-
lege senior class, is bowing out of
the office which she has held for
the past year.
This year Miss Watkins has
worked with presidents of other
University colleges and schools in
formulating a plan to integrate
all seniors into one working body
with each group having a say in
senior activities.- ,
THE PLAN will go into effect
next year.
"Watt," as she is often called
by her friends, has taken ad-
vantage of most of the oppor-
tunities offered by the Univer-
sity for coed extracurricular ac-
tivities.
Much of her time has been
spent in the League, where she
was a member of the Frosh Week-
end central committee and parti-
cipated in Soph Cab and Junior
Girls' Play.
AS A MEMBER of the League
Interviewing Committee, M i s s
Watkins helped choose new Lea-
gue officers and other chairmen.
Returning to politics, she
spent two terms as correspond-
ing secretary for the Student
Legislature.
A member of Kappa Kappa
Gamma sorority, Miss Watkins
has also been invited to member-
ship in various scholastic and ac-
tivities honoraries.
* * *
AS A FRESHMAN, she was in-
vited to join Alpha Lambda Delta
and is now a member of Phi Kap-
pa Phi and Phi Beta Kappa.
Wyvern, junior women's hon-
orary, and Mortarboard, all-
campus senior women's group,
also tapped Miss Watkins.
An English major, she hopes
someday to realize her ambition to
do creative writing.
* * *
SOME INDICATION that she.
may succeed in this field is given
by the fact that she was presented
with one of the freshman Hop-
wood awards for essay and fic-
tion.
A tennis and swimming en-
thusiast, Miss Watkins each
year eagerly awaits the arrival
of summer.
During her summer vacations
she has planned "something dif-
ferent" for each year.

nual picnic at 4 p.m. Thursday,
June 12, on the Island.
A "Bring Your Own Party" for
seniors, stag or with their dates,

This picnic is only one of the
many projects sponsored by the

One of the numerous other
events was the Senior Ball, the
oldest traditional dance on cam-
pus, which is held annually to
honor the graduating seniors.
"Once Upon A Time" -was the
theme of this year's dance which
featured decorations based on mo-
dernized nursery rhymes. Many of
the Mother Goose characters

closely resembled campus "Joe
Colleges" and "Mary Coeds."

picted at the dance were Georgie
Porgie, the campus wolf, Little
Boy Blue in football garb, and 01'
King Cole having his ID checked
at the door.
Couples entered the Union ball-
room under the huge legs of the
Giant and climbed up Jack's
Beanstalk to the ballroom. At the
entrance to thekdance floor was
the large clock from Hickory
Dickory Dock," with a swinging
pendulum to permit only one
couple at a time to pass.
Serving as a policy forming
committee for Senior Ball and
other projects is the Senior Board
which consists of Fred Ittner and
Joe Epstein, publicity; Phil Berry
and Jack Ray, finance; Mark
Sandground and Pete Hall, special
events; Jack Beyer, reunions; Bar
bara Smith and Mary Jo McCor-
mick, caps and gowns and Sue

mencement announcements.

'BRING YOUR OWN':
Traditional Picnic To Climax
1952 Senior Class Activities

By ROZ SHLIM ITZ
Even though charges of profes-
sionalism have been levied against
many, college athletic activities,
Abby Funk, this year's president
of the Women's Athletic Associa-
tion, can present a clean adminis-
trative record to the new prexy,
Nancy Fitch.I
Miss Funk will also leave a won-
derful record of her own on this
campus after her June gradua-
tion.
THIS YEAR two honorary so-
cieties Scroll and Zeta Phi Eta,
professional speech sorority, rec-
ognized her achievements. The ac-
tive coed is treasurer of the lat-
ter group.

ior Girls' Play to look back to
after graduation this spring.
. On a sunny day one might catch
a glimpse of Miss Funk putting on
the golf course. She is considered
a very good golfer by her friends
and is a member of the Women's
Golf team.
* * *
SHE SERVED as manager of
the WAA Golf Club last year be-
fore she was chosen as the asso-
ciation's president.
Although this coed spent last
summer counseling at Inter-
lochen, National Music Camp,
she has no definite plans for
this summer.
However, for next year, Miss
Funk has definite plans-teaching
third grade in Ann Arbor.

It seems strange to Miss
Fitches' friends and to the Lan-
sing junior herself, that she is
attending school here, since
both her parents and most of
her relatives graduated from
Michigan State.
Jokingly, Nancy admits she's the
black sheep of the family.
s s
HOWEVER, she is not consider-
ed a black sheep on this campus,
as is evident from her member-
ship in Wyvern and Mortar Board.
Miss Fitch is also in the Eng-
lish Honors course of the Liter-
ary College.
As would be expected, Miss
Fitch likes all sports, with swim-
ming being one of her special fa-
vorites.
* * *
IN LINE with this interest, she
hopes to be a playground leader
in Lansing this summer.
Along with her many WAA
activities, the new president of
the Women's Athletic Associa-
tion has gained valuable experi-
ence from such duties as re-
freshment chairman of Michi-
gras, and assistant general
chairman of Frosh Weekend.
The WAA Board this year has
accomplished much in the way of
promoting sports interest among
the women on campus and in co-
recreational activities under the
leadership of Miss Funk.
Miss Fitch has these and many
other objectives in view for next
year and the new board members
are confident that all will be ac-
complished.

ONE OF HER vacations was
spent at a dude ranch in New
York, while the next year she
spent the summer bicycling
through Europe.
Working at the Fresh Air
Camp occupied her time during
the past summer. This year a
girls' camp will be her destina-
tion.
During the next school year, the
the "bonnie lassie" will journey to
Scotland to attend St. Andrews
University Ion a Rotary scholar-
ship.
While overseas, Miss Watkins
will make speeches to Rotary
Clubs abroad.
