How About A Leap Week Appalachian State Teachers College is soon to observe “Leap Week”. The last edition of their campus publication contained a proc lamation, which gave all the rules of the celebration, and rules they are. The general idea is that all boys are forbidden the privilege cf asking for dates, and the girls take it upon themselves this task. Next conies the old problem of who shall pay, but the Appalachian has taken care of that too. The girls are to pay for all drinks, gum, Lnd show fares. We are not advocating male sufferage, but it sounds pood to us. If you are interested in a celebration of this type see come member of the Maroon and Gold Staff. We already have par tial consent of the administration, and it needs your support to sur- vive. _ CONTACT Sportsmanship Trophy J Pictxired above is Dean Mes sick. past president of the North State conference.

The music will be decided]/ novel; the band has guaranteed to play in tune, and together — for a change. The refreshments will be — we hope. A king's feast could scarce ly be compared to it — if you re not too particular. And if yo:i are, don’t come. Novelty will bo the keynote of the evening — a.s a matier of fact, it will be novel if it comes off at all. There is, however, one fly in the ointment, one flaw in this verit able social Paradise.
