Women interested in working on the central committee for Fort- night, the annual skitfest to be * held Nov. 4 this year, may hand their petitions in by 6 p.m. Mon- day, Oct. 6 in the Undergraduate Office of the League. THEY MAY SIGN up for inter- views which will be held from 4 to 5:30 p.m. Oct. 7 and 8.

Any independent woma is eligi- ble to petition if she lives in a dor- mitory, league house, private home or co-operative house. Fortnight is an evening's pro- gram which honors independent coeds for outstanding achieve- ments in scholarship and extra- curricular activities. A SCHOLARSHIP cup is award- ed to the house that attained the highest scholarship average dur- ing the past year. The program also includes the installation of house presidents and they are introduced to the1 audience and given their official house president's pin. The last event of the evening is a series of skits planned and presented by each house group. Competition runs high, and at the end of all the three-minute skits the fudges decide the first, sec- onld and third place winners. A traditional cup is awarded the first place winners and plaques given to the second and third place winners. They are judged on orig- inality, effectiveness of presenta- tion, clarity and audience response. THE OTHER POSITIONS As- sembly Association has opened for petitioning are on an advisory board to help the freshmen wom- en in Prescott House of East Quad rangle set up their house govern- ment. Women interested in stu- dent government are urged to pe- tition for one of the four posts open. The board will consist of four members, including a chair- man, and an ex-officio member from Assembly Board and one from Judiciary Council. These petitions will be due at 6 p.m. Wed., Oct. 1, in the Under- graduate Office of the League. In- terviewing will be held from 4 to 5:30 p.m. Thursday and Friday I, Oct. 2 and 3. The term of the board will be for as long as it is necessary to help the coeds in Prescott House set up their house council and house judiciary council. DUTIES of the board will in- elude attending the house meet- ings and conducting them in par- liamentary procedure. One of their main duties will be to draw up a constitution. Coeds will be elected according to the rules of this constituition, and they will take over their own house government and management. In addition to these duties, the board will serve as big sisters to the coeds who have none in the all-freshman house. This will mean helping them with academic as well as social problems that may arise during the year. Members of the board will help explain petitioning for the various positions open to freshman women during the semester. Prescott House was converted this year to accommodate the large number of freshman women in the class of 1956. As the year pro- gresses and their own house gov- ernment takes over, they will elect representatives to the East Quad Council in order to have a vote for their own interests as resi- dents of East Quadrangle. The resident director is Mrs. Marjorie McCoy, who was at Vic- tor Vaughn House last year and Helen Newberry Residence before that time. -Daily-Larry Wilk FOOTBALL FEVER-Jackie Schiff '54 and Bert Shapero '54 practice their ballroom dancing for the Golden Rule Bal from 9 p.m. to midnight on Saturday in the Union Ballroom.
