And looking at all the student* with the eves of an objective, unprej udiced junior—I believe they de served it. The freshman stunt had its pos sibilities, no mention necessary of its probabilities of victory — it was the por trayal of colors in song and scenes. Think I should say that they are the most optimistic class I’ve ever seen—they con vinced a girl that she could learn how to . j play the guitar in three or four days for their western scene. But she failed them. The theme of the sophomore stunt was “holiday hats,” and there . were some beautiful 1 creations. The seniors whipped out with one of the prettiest, most polished perform ances of a stunt I’ve seen. It was all on Irish beautiful seen- e.ry, effective lighting, good dances and voices. But all these stunts lacked what the juniors had—originality. Th* junior stunt was the court of birdtji trying to find who killed Cock Robin, entitled Fowl Play. All sort* of bird* were called up to astify—fi •o » the Red Robins try* nk to get bird* to join ithp Reds they did, a «'<>*>uek dance) to Woody Woodpwker.

These are the most important campus elec tions we have, besides class elec tions coming up soon. This is a wonderful group of girls who will be leading our campus activities next year. a Now that elections and stunts ate over and all the thank-you notes for Christmas gifts are writ ten, we can settle down with con centrated effort on our self-devel opment. Traditionally and always the week before the bud Fetsival is called Self-Devel- opment Week, with election of a, posture queen and lectures and classes for the ones interested in losing or gaining weight, improving posture—just everything. This program of next week jwill be climaxed Saturday night, the twenty-sixth, by one of TSCW’s largest social functions — Redbud Festival and Ball. At (he Festival* * queen is chosen from the princesses elect* ed in each dormitory. The queen isn't chosen because of her beau* ty, but for being an outstanding leader on the campus.
