A College—Not a Bank
Cash Checks Elsewhere
“We are not in the check cash-
ing business,” remarked Dr.
Jerome Weynand, dean of student1
affairs. The businesses on the
campus are being plagued with re-
quests to cash an excessive amount
of checks, and there is not
enough cash on hand to accom-
odate those making such requests.
Checks are accepted during
registration, but afterwards stu-
dents are urged to arrange their .
check cashing at a bank or an
establishment which keeps enough
cash on hand for that purpose.
The Book Store, cafeteria and reg-
istrar’s office are being hampered
in their business operations by
cash shortages due to the excess
number of checks.
Pledge Week Follows Parties;
Rushees Await Notification
Sorority Pledge Week, the climax of the fall rush season, will open Monday and
and continue through Sunday, October 15. Rushees who have been accepted as new
pledges will be notified this weekend following the voting of sorority members at
at the close of yesterday’s formal Rush Tea. Rush parties and the election of offic-
ers have highlighted early fall sorority activities.
Miss Rosemary Johnson is the
new sponsor of Theta Kappa Chi.
Theta officers include Cynthia
Bynum, president; Kathleen
Tynan, vice president; Geraldine
Bischoff, secretary; Gaye Brick-
son, pledge mistress and Yvonne

The purpose of change in for-
mat is to establish an appropriate
teaching tool for journalism ma-
jors. Whereas the yearbook pro-
vided little practical training for
future journalists, the magazine
will serve as an excellent train-
ing aid.
Individual student pictures will
be included as a supplement in
one issue of the magazine. These elude Edward Machu, Jack Leav-
pictures will be taken October 31
through November 3 in the Pub-
lications Office. Complete details
on this matter will be given at
a later date.

"Music for Fun,” will be the theme for the first cul-
tural assembly of the year to be held Thursday, October
19, beginning at 10 a.m. in the McAllister Auditorium.
Morning classes on this day will be shortened so that all
students and faculty may attend.
The main group to be highlight-
ed at the assembly will be the
Collegiate Chorale under the di-
rection of Assistant Professor of
Music, Theoron Kirk. Providing
musical accompaniment for the
chorale will be a small instrumen-
tal ensemble composed of a rhy-
thm section and a brass section
from the College Orchestra. “The
People,” a folk singing group
composed of SAC students, will
also perform a number.
Miss Irene Liden, ex-SAC stu-
dent and now a member of the
| faculty, will sing with the Chor-
1 ale. “The Seguidilla” and “The
Habanera” from the opera “Car-
men” will be the selections per-
formed. Miss Liden appeared in
many assemblies as a student and
has sung at the Bayreuth Music
Festival in Germany.
. Popular as well as classical
music will be on the program with
the Chorale singing such numbers
as “Guantanamera,” “Serenade in
the Night” and other present-day
favorites.
Assistant Professor Kirk has
said that this program has been
planned for the enjoyment of
everyone. He remarked that at
the. past six assemblies which the
Music Department has presented
in the last two years, they
have always played to a full aud-
itorium.

Johnston, Hagy,
Fuentes to Edit
Paper, Magazine
Ranger co-editors for the 1967-
68 school year are Kathy Lou
Johnston and Anne Hagy.
This year The Ranger not only
has new editors, it also has two
new positions! Traditionally, the
top staff positions have been
editor-in-chief and news editor. It
was decided, however, that co-
editors could better coordinate the
efforts of the 75 journalism stu-
dents.
A third vacancy was filled by
Jose Fuentes, editor-in-chief of
the quarterly magazine.
Mrs. Edith King, publications di-
1 rector, and Bill Winter, journalism
instructor, made the announce-
ments Monday, September 25.
Journalism classes have mush-
roomed this year as enrollment
rose to 75, setting an all-time high
for the day school.
Journalism 301, open to fresh-
men, was divided into two sec-
tions because of the high enroll-
ment.
For the first time freshmen stu-
dents in Journalism 101, 102 and
301 are learning how to conduct
interviews and write actual news
stories. Each student has been
assigned four or five faculty
members to interview every other
week.
Stories obtained from these in-
terviews will be published in The
Ranger.

A new idea in school publications for the college has
been announced by the Journalism Department and ap-
proved by the official board. The idea involves a plan
for completely revising the format of EL ALAMO, the
school yearbook.
Yearbook sponsor Bill Winter
has explained that the plan will
materialize into a pictorial news-
feature magazine which will give
selective coverage and in-depth
reporting. The magazine will be
published four times yearly, with
the first edition expected early in
November. Attractive binders will
be furnished in which students
may save their editions of the
magazine.
