BE MY VALENTINE—Pretty Pam Larmar has found herself caught in a never-ending array of Valen

Whence Cometh Valentine’s Day?
By SAMMY JONES
The origin of Valentine’s Day,
celebrated each year on February
14, is not as simple as most of
us seem to believe. Even the figure
that inspired the name, St. Valen
tine himself, causes some ques
tions. It seems that no less than
three martyred Saints had the
Name “Valentine.” One was m
Priest in Rome and another was
the Bishop of Interamna, which is
now Terni,
Whichever one is the correct
founder, he was beheaded on Feb
ruary 14, 270. He would probably

be surprised to learn today that he
is revered by lovers all over the
world. The church found that date
most acceptable, since it fell near
the celebration of the pagan holi
day of LuperciUa.
On Luercillia ithe young man and
women of the immediate area came
together, the women’s names were
placed in some type of box, and
each young man took one out. The
one he choose was to be his mate
for the following year. The church
celebrated the same thing, with a
few changes: instead of the box be
ing filled with the names of avail
able young women, it was filled
with the names of Saints. The in
dividual was supposed to mold his
life after the life of the particular
Saint he drew.
Chaucer tells us that on that day
the birds are supposed to come
together and choose their mates.

Co-Op Meet
Approves
Amendments
The Co-operative Association met
on Tuesday, February 9th and ap
proved two amendments to the pro
posed new constitution.
Article 11., Section f>, Part c of
the proposed constitution before the
passing of an amendment to this
area read in part as follows: "In
the event that a member other than
a cabinet officer, shall forfeit his
position on the Executive Board, his
seat shall remain vacant.” With the
approval of the amendment the fol
lowing has been added to this sen
tence; “until such time as new
electons can be held by the or
ganization.”
Article V., Section 3 of the pro
posed constitution was deleted com
pletely by a motion which was
passed by the Ck)-operative Associa
tion and the following was add
ed in its stead; “Any student who
witnesses any academic dishonesty
is to report in writing to the profes
sor under whom the violation has
been noted. The professor is then to
advise the accused student of charg
es against him and the professor is
then to report the violation to the
Dean of Students or the proper col
lege officials in a written statement
within 24 hours. A professor who
notes academic dishonesty shall also
foUow the above procedure.”
That part of Article V., Section
3 which was deleted by the amend
ment is as follows; “Reporting: Vio
lations of the Honor Policy shaU be
submitted to the Vice President of
the Cooperative Association by Stu
dents in a signed, written state
ment within 4S hours after said of
fense has been noted. The faculty
shall report, in the same manner,
violations to the Dean of Students.”
