Delta Zeta, the newest national
sorority on the Elon campus, is

public was invited to the standards
program on September 25 in which
Coach Kelley discussed the pros

quite successful. There is another
program tentatively planned for
November to which the public is
also invited.
The sisters have scheduled two
money making projects for the near
future. We will be selling poly wogs
(candy) and colorful flowered key
chains.
Delta Zeta is backing Elon's foot
ball team by making banners for
the games.

An Insider's
The purpose of this article is to
inform the student body of bills
passed by the Elon College Student
Senate, and to more importantly,
comment on the obstacles that
confront Senate activities.
On the twentieth of September,
the Senate met to discuss and pass
three bills basically related to each
other. The first is a bill to appoint
a Student Honor Court Official; the
second is designed to appoint a
Student Committee Chairman;
while the third appoints student
members for Student-Faculty Com-
committees as the Lyceum, Student
mittees. This final bill includes such
Affairs and Judicial Review.
In viewing the Senate in relation
to its activities and responsibilities
there is, first of all, one important
fact that everyone should try to
understand—THE SENATE FUNC
TIONS FOR THE WELFARE OF
THE STUDENT BODY. Secondly, in
inter-chapter relations, and the
National APO Conference, which is
to be held in Denver this Decem
ber, and to which representatives
from Elon’s chapter are to attend.
The brothers of APO wish to re
mind all students and faculty mem
bers to please take advantage of
the campus suggestion box located
at the switchboard in the Alamance
building.
SIGMA PHI EPSILON
Words from Chief Hank Noka-
gowia (the Jewish Navajo Indian
Chief):
The fall is here again and
bananas are still yellow at Winn
Dixie. Reports are coming in that
the ping-pong balls are having a
bad season at Burlington Sporting
Goods, but we don’t care because
the movie is better than the play.
Koosh Man will be at Burger Chef
next Thursday, so keep collecting
those R. C. Cola bottle caps.
Chief Hank’s weekly weather re
port calls for scattered light, fol
lowed by scattered dark. Hank’s
horoscope for October 3-10 is: to
stay in bed all week.
Tune in next week for further re
ports yesterday.
KAPPA PSI NU
Kappa Psi Nu Fraternity starts
off its Fall Rush this week with a
Brother-Sister Party, September 29,
with Tri Sigma Sorority. Rush con
tinues the following week with a
Kappa Psi Nu smoker slated for
Thursday, October 5.
The brothers of Kappa Psi Nu
are also working on their Home
coming activities for the 1972 year.
Thus far, the brothers have sche
duled a campus display with Tri
Sigma and a banquet for alumni.
Congratulations to Chris Furcron,
Kappa Psi Nu Sweetheart for the
1972-73 school year.
summarizing these bills all I can
say is that they are of a minor
nature, and I sincerely hope that
the Senate will be able to enact
more significant legislation in the
future. The majority of students on
campus feel that the Senate is
totally ineffective in implementing
solid, constructive change at Elon.
These people are right. However,
the real reason why the Senate
cannot function effectively is be
cause the Administration strin
gently regulates student activities.
They encourage the students to
act like mature adults and make
decisions for themselves, but when
the Senate attempts to implement
these encouragements through
constructive legislation, they are
defeated at every turn. This type of
policy is not only frustrating, it is
also hypocritical.
Thirdly, how often have you been
embarrassed or even disgusted
with the rules at Elon? The answer
Amus the Hippo
She was. He was. But Amus was
not nearly so much, four his parents
were bleading blood. Yes, only
minutes after the dime you red
what was written Amus lost his
parents. (If your memory doesn’t
remember George and Nina then
it’s not important that you remem
ber them.) Nina and George have
died to death in each others arms.
They died of amputation.
The first thing that sprang into
Amus’ sprung mind was to spring
into action. Action was only twenty
miles from there so Amus got there
late. The only single clue he could
find was a photo picture painting
of Bobby Vee and the Crickets with
a note on the back left hand corner
near the center of the picture.
NOTE:
I killed Nina and George!
yours with love,
O.S.S.
Amus just stood there crying as he
sat. He knew what he must do in
order to get it done in our next
chapter he will.
Is Chicken Little a left winger?
Do you understand Economics?
Who said “Eyeball”? For the an
swer to these and those other ones,
read the next continuous story of
Amus the Hippo!!

is quite obvious—very often! Con
cerning the rules the administration
says “If you don’t like it here you
can always leave.” However, if you
do like it here and feel that Elon
possesses potential, why not help
develop that potential? It can be
harnessed by the Student Senate
if it will only be allowed to enact
sensible student oriented legisla
tion. Personally, I feel annoyed
when a “mature adult” cannot
drink on campus and visit a friend
whenever he or she wishes.
In summation, it would appear
that the Student Senate is fettered
by administrative restrictions and
traditions that are obviously out
moded. And something must be
done to improve conditions socially
and intellectually. Please help the
Student Senate to do something
about this situation. It’s your
school!
