SUPPORT YOUR TEAM
Interest in Sigma and Mu com
petition may not be so keen this
year as before because many girls
probably do not understand the
organization and point system of
the athletic association.
By going out for a sport and
making the team, a girl receives
points which not only help her
Avin an aAvard at the end of the
year, but also help her athletic so
ciety Avin the plaque.
An athletic society gains points
by winning the tournaments in a
major sport (hockey, basketball,
tennis, SAAdmming, softball, boAvl-
ing, volleyball, by Avinning the
tournament in a minor sport
(ping pong), by haA'ing a member
Avho Avins the posture contest, by
participating in a tournament, al
though losing, and by the total
number of points gained by the
individual members.
A girl may gain points by com
ing to practice according to the
requirements set by the instructor
and by making a team. Girls Avho
earn the largest number of points,
are outstanding in a major sport,
or are a member of the All-Star
team in a certain sport Avin va
rious aAvards and monograms.
Every effort should be made to
maintain the high goal for phys
ical fitness set during the war. Go
out for a sport, or at least cheer
your Sigma or Mu team on to vic
tory.

WORLD WAR III?
The statement, Nazism is not

Avith the aid of the present Argen
tine regime, plotted a situation
Avhich in the future Avould be very
favorable to them. The “blue
book” also states that there are
still Nazi schools, singing socie
ties, and many cultural activities
going on in Argentina. Nazi
agents still operate there, Nazi or
ganizations continue to collect
funds, and Nazi businesses have
not been effectively controlled,
and are still powerful.
The material for this “blue
book” is based on American find
ings in Nazi documents discover
ed in a German salt mine. The
American diplomats say that the
purpose of the document is to
make clear Avhy the United States
opposed the present Argentine
regime, and Avhy it Avould not sign
an inter-American military treaty
Avith Argentina.
If something is not done about
this situation in the Argentines
soon, Ave may have another Hit
ler appearing, Avith the inevitable
result—a third and disastrous
World War.

Avays sure of mail from that certain

Holt, she contributes to the noise
and laughter with ready eagerness.
LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
Dear Editor,
I don’t think that the telephone
system here at Saint Mary’s is alto
gether satisfactory, that is, not satis
factory to the girls who don’t IHe
in Holt or West Rock. I believe
that I am correct in saying that it
is a Senior privilege to recei\'e calls
during Study Hall, but the Seniors
who live in either of the Wings and
Smedes have no Avay of knoAving
Avhether or not they receive a call
during Study Hall unless they hap
pen to walk by the bulletin board in
the covered way. I would like to
suggest that, in addition to the girl
who keeps the phone in East Rock,
there be a page to go after the Sen
iors if they receive a call during
Study Hall and to let the under
classmen know that they have a call
so that they can make them right at
nine-thirty. I believe that all of
the girls who live on these halls
would be willing, to take their turn
at paging. There are only three
phones that we can use, besides the
