NEWS FROM THE NORMAL CAMPUS
ACTIVITIES OF GENERAL INTEREST CONCERNING
FACULTY MEMBERS AND STUDENTS

Following this program the fresh
men divided into two groups and
went in turn to the college library
where library rules and proce-
dure was explained to them.
Later in the afternoon Dean Su-
san b. Hill spoke to the freshmen
women and Or. Lloyd w. Odds ad-
dressed the men. the latter taking
the place OF Dean James NJ. Brown,
who was scheduled to speak, but
was busy it'll classification.
In speaking to the women Dean
Hill welcomed them all, and ex-
pressed the wish that the office Of
the dear OF women would make a
friend OF each student. She said
that each woman is expected to be
lady, and should abide by the
rules OF the college. She empha-
sized the need for conscientious
study during the freshman year,
saying that after one is adjusted
to college life. they may then start
to do more OF the extra activities
on the campus.
Dean Hill explained that each
freshman woman is automatically
member OF the Women's League,
in which the faculty women, too,
are members.
DR.. Odds, when addressing the
men, stated that they should be
interested in athletics, but should
concentrate, primarily. on study
during the freshman year. He said
that only those boys who have
above &C" average are encourag-
ed to go out for sport.
At this meeting the green caps,
commonly called pots were dis
tributed. Each freshman is re-
CURED to wear one. II the fresh
man should win the class games
scheduled for this fall, they may
stop wearing them, but II they
should lose. the pots are worn
until some later date set by the
upper classmen.
The freshmen classified this
morning from 500 to 11:45. Regis

away, but she was home again.
She asked Ronnie to sit down
and then reached for the tele-
phone, explaining what she must
do. To her surprise, he shook his
head. II wouldn't, Linda"
"You wouldn't? But I'm the only
witness he has-that Is, unless the
coffee shop people remember he
was there, too"
There's some evidence you can't
supply. How did he get downstairs
and why? Why didn't he take the
elevator? Better stay out Of 1t.
This won't clear up a thing"
But it will 1t will prove where
he was at the time of the murder"
"Coroners may make mistakes.
Listen, Linda, IL he needs you. II
the other links which will acquit
him aren't found and everything
depends on this, then Of course I'd
want you to 60 to town for him.
But until they are-don't you think
we've had enough PUBLICITY"
Linda stared at him, seeing him
and yet not seeing him. So this
was Ronnie, this blue-eyed young
giant who was afraid of publicity
because 1t might hurt his career.
And suddenly she realized that the
knowledge did not hurt as she had
thought IL would. Some place, dur
ing these weeks. she had mislaid
her love for him.
But this could not be. Ronnie
was her world, the pivot Of her
dreams. and he could not fail her.
He couldn't. simply couldn't let her
down.
She felt a trihe III and pushed
the telephone away with unsteady
hands.
He was standing up now. Linda,
promise me you'll do nothing until
absolutely necessary. II it's a ques-
ton Of just what you know saving
the man, then OF course you must
speak up. But wait. Please, Linda,
won't you waltz"
Her eyes were green, wide,
amazed. But she nodded. I'll wait
until we can talk II over. But why,
Ronnie, why7"
