L “That all students be allowed
two meal cuts a week provided
that (a) the student sign up at a
designated place twenty-foui
hours in advance, (b) her table

abuse of fhis privilege, (c) her
hall counselor be notified, (d) she
does not use both cuts the same

and eliminate skipping of meals.
2. “That the recreation room be
opened ever.v weekday afternoon
from 5 :00 to 5 :.55 for dating, with
a facult.v member acting as hos
tess.”
3. “That students be allowed to
date the same bo.v as man,v times
as their dating privileges permit
them on the week end, provided
they obtain parental permission.”
.SATURDAY DIXXER
4. “That Satnrda.v night dinner
be voluntary for all students, pro
vided students not out on slip be
required to sign up.” It was added
that this arrangement would elim
inate skipping of meals and would
be more efficient for the dietician.
o. “That seniors be allowed to
stay out until !) :45 p. m. on Sun-
da.v night.” The petitioners .sug
gested that an extra fifteen min
utes would allow seniors more
adeqiiate time to dine and see a
complete movie.
I>ATE lAGHTS
6. “That students be allowed to
take late lights in their rooms. . .”
The advantages offered are that
it is more comfortable in the
rooms and easier to get to bed.
The petitioners wished to bring
attention to the fact that this
privilege was not abused during
exam week.
7. “That the freshmen and
sojihomores of Saint Marv’s
School and Junior College be al
lowed to date together and no

May Queen Will Go
To Azalea Festi'val
Betty Bowles, Saint Mary’s
May Queen for 1950, received an
in\itatioii to participate as one of
the eight college filav Queen
membere of the Azalea Queen’s
Court in the Wilmington Azalea
Festival on the Aveek end of
March 31 through April 2. She
will receive traveling expenses,
all expenses while there, and an
evening dress.
Though the movie actress Aza
lea Queen has not been chosen
All-America’s Doak Walker and
Choo-Choo Justice will crown her
I he ski 0,000 P.G.A. Azalea Golf
Tournament is scheduled for the
same week end.
Betty will ride on the Queen’s
float in the Azalea parade Satur
day morning and will take part
in the Queen’s crowning on Sat-
longer be required to have an up
perclassman accompany them ”
The petitioners feel that under
classmen are a burden to the up
perclassmen, who have to bring
them in at 10:.30 and thus inter-
nipt their evening. They feel it
IS often inconvenient to tli'eir dates
also for their plans to be inter
rupted by strangers. Finding
someone with whom to sign out,
they added, is often difficult and
consumes a great deal of time.
