The names of five girls have
been submitted as possible can
didates for the office of presi
dent of the Astrotekton Society.
They are: Norma Fagan, Dwan
Swindell, Jane Luther, Mary
Ann Westbrook, and Barney
Schettler. Of this group, two
will be selected by the nomi
nating committee to be the
final candidates. However, if a
good possibility has been over
looked, she can be nominated by
means of a special ballot signed
by ten per cent of the Astros.
In this coming election of
officers, it should be remem
bered that according to the
constitution of our society, the
president should be a member
of the incoming senior class; the
vice-president, a member of
either the incoming senior or
junior class; and the secretary
and the treasurer, members of
the incoming junior or sopho
more class. The sergeant-at-
arms should come from the
rising sophomore class, and the
marshals are taken one from
each the incoming senior, jun
ior, and sophomore classes, with
the chief marshal coming from
the rising senior class.
The Astros have recently
elected a council to plan their
activities and in general, to
steer the society along. Fresh
men members of this board
are Charleen Swanzey. Pat Lof-
tin, and Carolyn Little, Sopho
more representatives include
Sally Smith, Adele Buening,
Ann Seagrove, and Pat Dula,
What does being a Phi mean
to me? First of all, it means
just what the motto says, “Plain
living, and high thinking.” It
gives me the opportunity of get
ting to know girls whose pur
pose in life is the highest possi
ble. It means opportunity for
closer fellowship in work and
play with some of the finest
girls in the world.
It means that I am a part of a
society whose sincere friendli
ness and helpfulness has helped
many freshrrien to adjust them
selves in their new homes. It
means that I have a chance to
work with my friends in all the
activities of the Phis during the
year. It means that even though
I’m a freshman, I am just as
much a member as a senior, and
I have the same opportunities
and privileges as any other
member. It means that next
year I can make up beds during
“Rush Week” and get up at six
o’clock in the morning to sing
with all my heart “P-H-I does
everything.”

In Lubbock, Texas, the Texas Tech
College Book Stofe is a favorite
student gathering spot. In the Book
Store — Coca-Cola is the favorite
drink. With the college crowd at
Texas Technological College, as
with every crowd—Coke belongs.
