Representing Guatemala, seven
University students attended the
tenth annual mock United Nation
conference before spring vacation
at- the University of Wisconsin.-
Headed by Ann Woodward, stu-
dents traveling to Madison were
Board Endorses
Themia's Petition
ToNational Group
At Panhellenic meeting Thurs-
day, the Board of Delegates voted
to endorse the petition of Themia
to. Zeta Tau Alpha national soror-
ity to become one of its colonies.
The group also passed a motion
which will send the organization's
new president, Carol de Bruin, to

, It was announced that City Pan-
hellenic will give a tea for all high
school senior girls in Washtenaw
County on Saturday, May 19. At

day, May 15, the new Panhel offi-
cers will be installed.
Mary Tower, President of Junior
Panhel, announced that Help
Week, when sorority and fraternity
pledges and new initiates rejuven-
ate the Fresh Air Camp, will take
place Monday through Friday,
April 30 to May 4.

Ivan Potts, Don'MacLennan, Ma-
rilyn Harris, Ann Crego, Marilyn
Maldver and Sue Sturc.
Miss Sture remarked that the
atmosphere was so completely like
the United Nations that, "After.
a while one didn't even think of
these people as students. The
University of Chicago group had
really become the Indian delega-
tion."
Costume Ball'
Increasing the realism of the
weekend was a costume ball on
Saturday night, with delegates at-
tending in the native dress of the
country they represented.
Miss Sture commented upon the
tremendous knowledge of parlia-
mentary procedure evident in the
conference. She pointed out that
the Indian delegation made ample
use of this in attempts to chal-
lenge the right of the Nationalist
Chinese to represent that nation.
Close Vote
With the Communist, Chinese
delegates seeking admission with
signs and behind the scenes con-
tacts, the General Assembly voted
only by the narrow margin of 31
to 29 to retain the Nationalist
forces.
On the whole taking the view-
point pf the nations that they
represented, students dealt with
problems currently before the ac-
tual United Nations.
Discussion in the Disarmament
Council produced a proposal which
would ban nuclear weapons and

supervise fission and fusion bomb
tests under the control of an 11
nation investigating body.
Prevent Shipments
A stoppage of arms shipments
to both Israel and Arab nations
was advocated with a police force
set up to patrol the border until
a settlement can be reached.
With the purpose of familiariz-
ing students with issues currently
before the United Nations and the
court of world opinion, and giv-
ing them an insight into how the.
UN handles them, the assembly
was addressed by experts in this
field.
Naimuddine Rafai, Syrian dele-
gate to the 'trusteeship Council,
spoke to the students on "United
Nations Trusteeship: A Road to
Independence."
400 Attend
Sent by 20 colleges and univer-
sities, 400' college men and women
attended,. representing 73 of the
76 United Nations members.
An interesting sidelight was the
representation of the U.S.S.R. by
the Wisconsin chapter of Sigma
Alpha Epsilon fraternity and the
United States delegation by mem-
bers of the Wisconsin chapter of
Kappa Sigma and the Wisconsin
Liberal Club.
Calling the conference, "a tre-
mendously worthwhile experience,"
Miss Sturc noted that any of the
seven delegates will be available
to relate the details of the week-
end to groups
