To Keep Balance

nominee for secretary-treasurer
of the student body, yesterday
said if elected he would work
closer with the Student Legisla

available to various campus or

Tate said his idea was to have
specific hours and be on hand at
these times to consult on finan

to work with the administration
in conjunction "with relieving the
students of some of the financial
burden in such organizations as
the Debate Council and Graham
Memorial."
Tate, a Chi Phi from Gaffney,
S. C, has been active in all phases
of campus activity since entering
here three years ago. He is trea

Nelson, 23-year-old former WAC
from Vaughn, Warren County,
now doing graduate work here.
Miss Nelson is so enthusiastic
about her experiences in the
Army that she wouldn't mind go

that is, provided she could get
a commission.
Miss Nelson has had varied ex

instructor, in addition to her job
with the WAC.
She took up flying while work
ing as a clerk in the War Department-in
Washington. She joined
the Women Flyers of America to
find relaxation from her wartime
job. She then applied for a job
as a Link trainer instructor for
the Navy, got the job and was

where she was again employed by
the Southern Airways as a Link
trainer instructor. This was quite
an unusual job for a woman in
1942 and 1943, and "Aviation

her, describing her position as
"one of the rarities of the time."
Miss Nelson had always had a
