The second meeting of the
Council of Presidents was held
this past Monday with 25 persons
present representing 26 of the 40
campus organizations. The
discussion, following a banquet
in Hardy Alumni Hall, centered
around the extent to which each
organization has contributed
and can continue to contribute to
the total campus community.
Each organizational
representative was asked by
President Doster, who presided
over the session, to describe how
their organization contributed.
After an hour long session, the
concensus seemed to be that
each organization was at
tempting to strengthen itself
while striving for a better
student awareness of its pur
poses and priorities. When asked
by Doster to give advice con
cerning what the priorities of the
president should be in these
matters in the coming year, the
response was almost unanimous
— greater student unity.
Suggestions were made for
leadership conferences,
organizational fairs, and various
other activities, especially those
in which Freshmen might be
more effectively to the various
organizations. The desire for a
more congenial relationshp
among Greek and non-Greek
students received special at
tention from the leaders present
at the conference. Suggestions
for effecting a better un-
1

derstanding were offered and
discussed. In line up this, it was
urged that leaders try to co
ordinate their activities more
effectively and to realize that the
student’s main responsibility is
to scholastics. Leaders should
remember to evaluate past
procedures and thereby plan
present activites more ef
fectively. DoSter closed the
meeting by thanking all those in
attendance. The following
organiza tions were represented:

So, you want to know which
fraternity and which sorority is
best on this campus. Well, we
don’t know. But, wedoknow who
won which events during Greek
Week, the week when the
fraternities and sororities
compete among themselves to
build up their common goal of
brotherhood (excuse the sexist
language.).
The first three days of Greek
Week were rather uneventful.
Monday was Jersey Day,
Tuesday was Dress-Up Day, and
Wednesday was Jersey Day
again. (I think that next year it
might be a good idea to have the
Jersey Days spread further
apart so that the people wearing
them might wash them.)
The climax of the first half of
the week was the poorly at
tended basketball game played
by the Interfraternity Council
and the Panhellenic Society.
Thanks to some miraculous foul
shooting by the women during
the final two minutes of the
game, the score was deadlocked
at the end of regulation time.
The men seemed to be hampered
only a little by having their legs
tied together and thoroughly
outclassed the women by using
“teamwork” to allow players to
“slam-dunk” the ball. Because
the Gym was being locked the
teams were not allowed to play
an overtime period, so the game
remained in a tie.
Runnoff Results
Following the runoff of April
12 and 13, the Junior Class had a
full slate of officers; however,
the Senior and Sophomore
Classes have offices to be filled.
Kathy Whitehurst was elected
Senator-at-large of the Junior
Class. Beth Perkins was elected
Vice-President of the Senior
Class, but there will be a runoff
for two Senators-at-large among
the following: Ron Anderson,
David Betts, SuzieCooper, Janet
O’Henry Daniels, Linda George,
Gary Hall, and Lou Smith. The
Sophomore Class chose John
Clyburn. Gregory Dozier, and
Dee Waters to represent it on the
Student Senate. Secretary-
Treasurer of the Sophomore
Class remains an open office.
Those who were in the
audience during Creek Sing will
attest that the judges must have
had a hard time picking which
sorority had the best per
formance. All three sororities
made an excellent contribution
to the program, but the Delta
Zetas got the lop honors by
showing the audience •'How the
West Was Won. " It seems to this
most prejudiced writer that the
judges had a somewhat easier
time in picking out the best
performance by a fraternity.
Delta Sigma Phi won the
fraternity division of (ireek Sing
with their performance of
“Songs From South I'acific" All
of the sororities were well
polished and most of the
fraternities had evidently spent
many hours in practice.
Saturday, Toisnot Park must
have lesembled Pandemonium.
There were people climbing on
top of each other's backs. People
had their extremities lied
together. Brother was throwing
egg at brother and men were
being glutinous with saltine
crackers. This scene, which
could resemble Dante's Inferno
if we had a little imagination, is
known as Greek Activities Day.
Here, fraternities and sororities
compete in such activitit's as
building pyramids out of human
bodies, an event won by the
Delta Sigs and the Delta Zetas.
Other events included a throe
legged race, won by the Alpha
Sigma Phi fraternity and the
Delta Zeta sorority: an egg toss,
won by Delta Sigma Phi and the
Tri-Sigs; a wheel barrow race
won by the DZs; a cracker
eating contest, won by Sigma
Phi Epsilon; a suitcase relay,
won by F^hi .Mu; and a tug-of-
war. won by the Activities Day
champions, Delta Sigma Phi and
Delta Zeta. This was the second
consecutive year that the
fraternity division has been won
by Delta Sigma Phi and the
eighth year, overall, that the
sorority division has been won
by the Delta Zeta s.
.Many people think that these
two activities are all that take
place during Greek Week, but
they aren't. Awards are also
