Joy’s chief policy line, for that is
her major.

was Mr. Adams!) But there is no
doubt in Merion as to her fine ca-

Warren Wins
It was difficult to hear what
M. G. had to say over the cries of
congratulations and excitement in
her room in Pem East. When ask-
ed to ‘make a comment for the
press’, M. G. said, “I’m trying to
think of something funny—that is,
besides my getting elected!”
‘Last year Carol Sonne said she
hoped to get a new showcase and
a washing machine for Pem East
—and she got them. M. G. said she
didn’t feel she could do much bet-
ter than that! People kept coming
in to congratulate her, the most
frequent comment being, “How ex-
citing!” As one onlooker remark-
ed, “Ike has nothing on us!”
Pem West Chooses McCabe
“Honestly there was so much ex-
citement I didn’t have time to
think,” said Pem West’s Muggy
McCabe. One of Muggy’s friends
asked, “Are you going to be
strict?” “Hmmm .. ”, Muggy put
on her sternest expression and
then burst out laughing.
The new hall president is major-
ing in English. As for afterwards:
“Beth (Davis) and I are going to
England ... if I live through next
year.”
Muggy confessed she hadn’t had
a chance to think of any drastic

Radnor Elects McElroy
Radnor”’s Pat McElroy was sit-
ting in the smoker Tuesday after-
noon, sure that she was not the
Hall President-elect, when Jane
Martin appeared with the corsage.
“IT was so surprised,” beamed
Pat. “Everyone was sitting in the
smoker with such straight faces,
feeling sorry for me, when in
walked Janie with the corsage
box.”
Jane Martin, this year’s presi-
dent, gleefully described Pat’s first
reaction. “I had told everyone in
the smoker beforehand,” said Jane.
“Then I walked in with the cor
sage behind my back and said,
‘Congratulations, Patsy McElroy!’
producing the corsage. Pat, a bit
dazed, murmured a thank youn,
then incredulously exclaimed, ‘For
me? Thank you! I must call my
parents.’ ”
Pat is a history major ,and man-
ager of the swimming team, in
addition to being one of its stars.
Muir Heads Rhoads
“As a matter of fact I’m in such
a twit that I don’t exactly know
what I did say,” exclaimed Mari-
lyn Muir, the newly elected Presi-
dent of Rhoads Hall. “I do re-
dealt a beautiful twenty-two point
bridge hand when Penny handed
me a perfectly lovely corsage and
told me that I was president. I
got so flustered that I-made a slam
when I had only bid three no-
trump.” Marilyn declared. “This
year’s platform is good enough for
me—and I intend to stick with it!”
Pettis For Rock
“Oh, no! What am I supposed
to do?” was Ann Pettis’ alarmed
exclamation when she learned that
she was to be interviewed for the
College News. She was so sur-
prised and happy that. she: didn’t
quite know what to say. Being
elected president of Rock and be-
ing interviewed, in addition to all
the excitement of “congratula-
tions” and “thank you,” were a
little too much for Petti.
Asked about her first reaction to
the good news, she emphasized not
only her delight, but also the real-
ization of the gigantic responsi-

Wyeth Leads Non-Reses
Cynnie Wyeth was not only a
giver, but also a receiver of flowers
—as she stepped out of the posi-
tion of Common Treasurer, she as-
sumed the duties of the new presi-
dent of the Non-Reses. Cynnie is
an outstanding member of this
group, and will certainly bring her
capabilities and talents to bear in
this new work. She is a Physics
major, and recent write-ups in
Philadelphia papers attest her abil-
‘ty in this field—once in the lab,

science is her love. The Non-Reses
have made a fine choice!
