Al- pha Pi Lambda led off last Wednes- day night followed by the Theta Chi affair to be held tonight. Lambda Chi will entertain Monday and Tau Kappa Epsilon will hold theirs the following Wednesday. All eligible June fresh- men are invited to all of these affairs which are held every year to give the incoming frosh the opportunity of looking over the fraternities, meet- ing the respective members and be- coming acquainted in general with a social side of Drexel life. Smokers usually start in the vicinity of 8:00 and wind up about 11:00. Different members of the faculty will be present to outline some of the benefits of fraternhies to college men and the rest of the evening is taken up with entertainment and refresh- ments. Feiver Fraternities The field has been narrowed a bit from previous years due to the clos- ing of the Pi Kappa Phi and TKE houses which fact, should considerably ease the burden on the usually be- wildered frosh who are normally presented with so many smokers that they tend to lose much of their signi- ficance. Tau Kappa Epsilon, however, has again become active on the cam- pus and while no longer maintaining a chapter house will bold their smoker at some as yet undisclosed location. The Saturday night following the last smoker the Greeks will close the rushing season with Open House dances to which all Tech students, par- ticularly freshmen, are invited to at- tend and bring their dales. The usual procedure being for the couples to visit each house for a period of time and meet as many people as possible. A word to you, Frosh—be sure to come—it’s a big thing in your college experiences and you’ll be sorry if you miss. Drexel Mnsic Clubs Start Busy Season The largest group in the history of the Women’s Glee Club reported for the club’s initial fall meeting last Tuesday. The officers as elected last year are as follows: President: Betsy Hocker Vice-President: Jeanne Ebaugh Secretary: Ada May McFarland Librarian: Eleanor Batla Forano Miss Hocker took charge of the meeting and announced regulations concerning attendance to the 85 old and new members. There are three meetings a week: an hour rehearsal at 1:45 p.m. on Tuesdays, and half-hour rehearsals on Mondays and Thursdays, 1 to 1:30. Members are to be at the Tuesday rehearsal, and at either of the other two, whichever is most convenient. Rehearsals are in the auditorium. Lo(If>e Outinji The girls will hold an outing at the Lodge this Saturday, October 9 for the dual purpose of becoming bet- ter acquainted, and holding some in- tensive rehearsals for the forthcoming appearances. All those interested are to meet in the court promptly at 12:30 p.m., with a picnic supper to be had at the Lodge. Transportation will bo ar- ranged by the Club. Men’s Glee Club reopened the Fall season, retaining their summer offi- cers.

All rehearsals for tlu) men will be held in the Music Kooui, which is located on the third lh)or of the annex. The Room may be reached by llie rear fire escape on the Chestnut Street side of the build- ing. MUSIC, on inme I H r. T h u n d e r at Organ Again Weekly organ recitals begun this week by the college organist William S. Thunder, will continue each Wed- nesday at 11:45 a.m. Many new ar- rangements and several artists in ad- dition to Mr. Tliunder will be featured at these concerts which have been be- come a traditional part of Drexel. Chem Co-Ed Plays Julia The new fall dramatic production, presented by Alpha Psi Omega in con- junction with Rouge and Robe, will be “The Theatre,” by Somerset Maugham and Guy Bolton. It is a well known English comedy and a huge success on the legitimate stage, where Cornelia Otis Skinner carried the lead. “The Tlieatre” portrays the life of an English actress who has been divorced from her actor husband with- out the public’s knowledge but who lives with him for reasons of business and friendship. Jerry Faust will por- tray Michel, the male lead, and also will direct the production. Jerry is well known in Drexel circles as a “gentleman of the theatre” he having had a prominent part in many past productions. JULIA on pape 4 Newcomers Welcomed to Faculty In keeping with the fast-moving times, several changes in the Drexel administration have been announced by President George P. Rea. The School of Home Economics leads in the number of changes. Mrs. Mabel Hall Metzger, B.S. and M.S. in Home Economics, Iowa State College has joined the faculty as an Instruc- tor of Foods and Nutrition. Before coming to Drexel Mrs. Metzger was Instructor in Home Economics and Dean of Women at Shepherd State Teachers’ College, Shepherdstown, West Virginia, from 1924 to 1937. From that time until now she has re- mained at home with her family in Upper Darby until her husband en- tered the service. Another newcomer to the Home Ec faculty, Mrs. Ruth S. Neel, is also a graduate of Iowa State College. She comes to Drexel as Director of the Drexel Home Management House and will also continue with graduate work as a candidate for M.S. in Home Eco- nomics. Mrs. Neel has had both pub- lic school teaching and business ex- perience; she was a member of the faculty at Oak Lane Country Day School from 1939 to 1942. Tl>e position of Dietitian of the Food Service Department of the col- lege will be filled by Ennna Wright a Drexel graduate. Miss Wright comes to Drexel with several years’ expe- rience as a liospital dietitian and as dietitian at Westhampton College, the University of Richmond. Miss Jane Rinehart, University of Pennsylvania, joins the staff to fill the vacancy of Secretary to the Dean of Home Economics. This poshion was filled by Mrs. Jeannette Goas for the past ten years. She has left for Washington, D. C., to join her hus- band. In the Business School, Behrens Ul- rich, a member of the Drexel faculty from 1939 to 1941, returns as assistant professor of Retailing of New York University, Professor Ulrich has had busniess experience in retailing and has for the last two years been Co- ordinator of l)istrii)utive Education at Western Michigan College, Kalama- £ 00 , Michigan. Jane Pryse Elders, a graduate of the Drexel School of Business Ad- ministration, class of ’41, has been ap- FACUl/l'Y on putii' 4 n ir e v to r o f W o m e n U reeiH F ro tth G irls Mrs. Seelbach. our new director of women, has already become well ac- quainted with most of the girls here at Drexel, and slates that she is en- joying them. “Please use our office freely; Miss Hanbury and I will be delighted to see you at any time,” is the invitation she extends to all the women at Drexel. Mrs. Seelbach is replacing Ruth A. L. Dorsey, who is on a sabbatical leave of absence for this year. Miss Dorsey will retire at the end of that time. C ouncil O m tlines P ro g ram In the regular meeting of Men’s Student Council on October 4 plans were laid for the election of class officers this fall. Tlie Sophomore and the Junior classes will hold regular elections except that the latter group may elect four council representatives instead of three. The senior “B” class will not Iiold elections until the end of Fall term while the Freshmen will elect section representatives to Frosh council. One man from tliis body will be sent to Men’s Student Council. Budgets were approved for the Frosli Hop and the Senior “B” dance. It was decided that the senior class had the right to assess members for the expenses of the activities of senior week in which tliey participate. It was reported that the smoking situation is much improved. In the near future an ash receptacle will be placed at each entrance to the court. Deans List Ended The Dean’s List Committee was dis- banded as the registrar stated that obtaining the information required this term would involve great difficul- ties and would disorganize the present records considerably. The following committees have been appointed: Student Building Committee: Carl Pacific© Roland Minshall John Kaufman Oliver Keely Fall Election Committee: D. Corneal, chairman C. Etter A. Soffa The student Council Keys will have the dates engraved for each term served; the new mentors of the coun- cil will receive keys. Copies of the constitution and by- laws will be given to Presidents of eacli class and society in the near future. Carsen and Corneal are mak- ing up sets of instructions for newly- elected class officers. The men’s intramural program is COUNCIL on page 4 Seniors Plan Gala Week The Senior Week Committee has set forth a calendar of social affairs for Senior Week. The December graduates and present Senior Women liave decided to bold Senior Week Nov. 1 to 6, wluch will provide a setting for the traditional Pa »sy Bowl game. In addition to Saturday’s game and dance, a Slag Dinner has been planned for Tuesday evening. Wed- nesday will be featured by a parly at the Lodge for Senior men and women and their dates. Thursday evening lliere will be an- other combined affair as both men and women attend a theater party. No play has been definitely chosen, however, “The Connecticut Yankee” at the Forrest, and the “Ice Capades of 1944” at the Arena are under con- sideration. The kick-off for llie big game will be Saturday at 2:00 p.m. when the Seniors suffering from a defeat as last year’s Juniors will allempt to gain possession of the coveted Pansy Bowl. All seniors are urged to return the forms which were given them, by Monday, Oct. 11. It is necessary that they return the form together with the money for llie dinner ($2.00) and the Theater Parly ($1.71 per person, $3.42 per couple) by this dale in order that a sufficient number of good seats may bo purchased for the theater parly. Enrollment for Year Shows Big Decrease Co-ed’s I¥ow Outnumber Men. Army Swells Student llodv Ranks DREXEL VS. HAVERFORl) — ONE YEAR AGO TOMORROW Above football coach Al Repsclia ualches the game. About four hun- dred Drexel students including the band in full uniform traveled to Haverford to ivatch the game through a. teeming rain. F ro sh C am p F o r M en B ig S uccess The annual Freshman Camp proved to be llie greatest success in its his- tory under the capable leadership of Oliver Keely and Tom Fisher. They supplied many activities to the satis- faction of everyone, including boat racing, a foul shooting contest, swim- ming races, for which prizes were of- fered, and football, basketball, and soccer which were going on all the lime. Canoeing was also a very popular pastime and in many cases was interrupted by overturnings to the enjoyment of all the spectators. Each evening was climaxed with a community sing with a group of up- perclassmen known as the “Seven Belches” leading the boys. These fel- lows performed so well, they have been invited to sing again for the benefit of everyone. If anyone didn’t have an appreciation of music before this unexpected treat, he surely did afterwards. A m a z o n * F i f inellas In v ad e Je rse y W ilds *Feinale (Gremlins Laden down with suitcases and blanket rolls and with a wishful but hopeful glance at the overcast sky, the freshmen women januned into three buses last Friday afternoon en- roule to Camp Malollione({uay in Medford Lakes. By supper time tlie gremlins were all over llie camp. Yes, I mean gremlins! The girls this year were divided into four teams with each team taking the name of a grem- lin. To get the gremluis acquainted with each other and a little warmed up. Miss Forstner led Uie group—-all one hundred and twenty of them in coun- try dancing and the Virginia Reel. Then the freshmen encountered a problem—how to make a bed in the dark in an unfamiliar cabin, especially when it liappened to be an upper bunk. The girls finally fell asleep to the soft lullabys sung by the shiver- ing upper class councellors. Saturday morning was another doubtful day as far as weather was concerned but the girls hardly noticed that the sun wasn’t shining. They were much too busy playing softball, volleyball, ping pong and ring toss. All afternoon the canoes did double duty with nary a mishap to write home about. Saturday night dinner was a puzzle to the freshmen when all tiie upperclass girls served everything backwards. Sweaters and shirts were donned in reverse style and the girls walked in reverse to complicate the traffic problem and to increase the china breakage. Just to make the freshmen more confused the dessert— rice pudding—was served first as an entree which had to be eaten with a knife. The main course was eaten entirely with a spoon which proved almost disastrous but it did save on the dishwashing. Each cabin presented an original skit—original is hardly the word to use. Tlie one that look first place was a scene “On the El.” Typical P.T.C. travellors were initiated, a jitterbug, a flapper, a woman, a zoot suiter, and to complete the picture—a drunk. More dancing followed, with the coun- cellors presenting (in professional form) “The Dance of the Gremlins.” Again the shivering councellors sang their charges to sleep i* After every- one was settled in bed the ice box was raided by three Gremlins with floppy ears. Sunday dawned bright and early for those who went to church, the others just got up in time for break- fast. An impressive chapel service was held out-of-doors with the as- sistance of a councellor choir. A hike was supposed to follow but most of tlie girls did their hiking by talking about it. The winning team the Wid- gets—was announced al dinner and the girls prepared for their home- ward journey. Six aristocrats rode home by automobile—with their fin- gers crossed to encourage the gas supply. Bou(iuets to Esther Wells and all her committees for arranging and planning everything. And thanks to the chaperones—Mrs. Seelbach Mrs. Ellies, Miss Meeder and Miss Forstner —four regular fellows I After calculating the total enroll* nicnt to date the registrar’s office an- nounces a drop of 753 students under last year’s total of 1900, bringing this year's total to 1147. As compared with 1349 last year, there are now 525 men in school, a difference of 824. The 194243 wom« an's enrollment, however, is topped by 171 students, bringing the new total to 622. In the school of Engineering the number of students has fallen from 1068 to 499, while the Home Ec school has risen from 271 to 282, only 11 above last year’s figure. A drop of 187 students, from 496 to 309, has iieen recorded for the school of Bus- iness Administration. ff omen Fnffineers Because of the needs for women engineers in industry and the short- age of men in this career at the pres- ent time, statistics show that there is a total of 17 women enrolled in the various schools of Engineering here. Among these are 5 June freshmen, 11 Sejiteniber freshmen, and 1 soph- omore. This total enrollment is supple- mented by the addition of several hundred servicemen under the Army Specialized Training Program with an intensive curriculum in the Engineer- ing school. Engineers P la n D ay a t L odge Tau Beta Pi, Honorary Engineering Fraternity, is sponsoring the All En< gineer’s Day at the Drexel Lodge on Saturday, October 16. This is to be perpetuated as an annual affair. The program will include football and baseball games between the en- gineering schools, obstacle races, a tug of war between the upper and lower classmen, foul shooting contests, table tennis tourney, and climaxed by supper in the evening. The purposes in holding this out- ing are to break down the social bar- riers existing between men of the various engineering schools and to have the men get acquainted with the other engineering faculty as well as their own. Albert Soffa, M.E., is chairman, with Albert Lenliart, Ch.E., Oliver Keely, C.E., and Larry Carapelloti, E.E., mak- ing up the Engineering Day Commit- tee. Organizations represented are Eta Kappa Nu, Pi Tau Sigma, Elec- tronics Society, A.l.Ch.E., A.S.C.E., A.I.E.E., and A.S.M.E. ’44 Lexerd Dead-Lines The accelerated program now be- ing carried on at Drexel has made it necessary that all seniors give the Lexerd their fullest cooperation. Of special note at this time are senior pictures for the year book and the list of activities engaged in while at Drexel. All seniors have received, or will receive, a card notifying them of their appointment to be photographed at the Sarony Studio, 1206 Chestnut Street. Please do not cause unneces- sary work and delay by neglecting it. The December seniors have all been notified and a dead-line has been set October 15, by which time all of their photographs must be taken. The Lexerd will be printed by sections this year, and those December seniors not having photographs taken by October 15 will have their pictures omitted from the year book. Those seniors who have not filled out a list of activities card will be sent another, and are requested to fill it out and to place it in the Lexerd mail box. For the December seniors, the dead-line for this is also October 15. Junior editors for this year’s Lexerd have been elected. They are Jo Beach and Virginia Howse.

T he annua l F reshm an Camp proved

to be llie greatest success in its his­tory u nde r the capable leadersh ip of O liver Keely and Tom Fisher . They supplied m any activities to the satis­faction of everyone, including boat racing, a foul shooting contest, swim­m ing races, for which prizes were of­fered, and football, basketball , and soccer which were going on all the

lime. Canoeing was also a very popu la r pastime and in many cases was in te r ru p ted by overturnings to the en joym ent of all the spectators.

Each evening was climaxed with a community sing with a group of u p ­perclassmen known as the “Seven Belches” leading the boys. These fel­lows pe r fo rm ed so well, they have been invited to sing again for the benefit of everyone. If anyone d id n ’t have an apprecia t ion of music before this unexpected treat, he surely did afterwards.

Laden dow n with suitcases and b lanket rolls and with a wishful but hopefu l glance at the overcast sky, the freshm en women januned into th ree buses last Friday a fternoon en- rou le to Camp Malollione({uay in M edford Lakes. By supper tim e tlie gremlins were all over llie camp. Yes, I m ean gremlins! T he girls this year were d iv ided into four teams with each team taking the nam e of a grem­lin.

To get the gremluis acquain ted with each o ther and a li ttle warmed up. Miss Fors tner led Uie group—-all one hu n d re d and twenty of them in coun­try dancing and the V irg in ia Reel. T h en the freshmen encountered a p ro b lem —how to make a bed in the d a rk in an unfam ilia r cabin, especially when it l iappened to be an upper bunk . T he girls finally fell asleep to the soft lullabys sung by the shiver­ing upper class councellors.

Saturday m orn ing was another doubtfu l day as far as weather was concerned but the girls hardly noticed tha t the sun wasn’t shining. They were m uch too busy playing softball , volleyball, p ing pong and r ing toss. All af ternoon the canoes d id double duty with nary a mishap to write home about. Saturday n ight d inner was a puzzle to the freshmen when all tiie upperclass girls served everything backwards. Sweaters and shirts were donned in reverse style and the girls walked in reverse to complicate the traffic p rob lem and to increase the china breakage. Jus t to m ake the freshm en m ore confused the dessert— rice p udd ing— was served first as an

entree which had to be eaten with a knife. T he m ain course was eaten entirely with a spoon which proved almost disastrous but it d id save on the dishwashing.

Each cabin presented an original sk it—original is hardly the w ord to use. Tlie one that look first place was a scene “On the El.” Typical P.T.C. travellors were initiated, a j i t te rbug, a flapper, a woman, a zoot suiter, and to complete the picture—a drunk. More dancing followed, with the coun­cellors presenting (in professional form) “The Dance of the Grem lins.” Again the shivering councellors sang the ir charges to sleep i* After every­one was settled in bed the ice box was ra ided by three Grem lins with floppy ears.

Sunday dawned bright a n d early for those who went to church , the others jus t got up in time for b reak ­fast. An impressive chapel service was held out-of-doors with the as­sistance of a councellor choir. A hike was supposed to follow bu t most of tlie girls d id the ir hiking by talking about it. The winning team the W id ­gets—was announced al d in n e r and the girls p repared for the ir hom e­ward journey . Six aristocrats rode home by autom obile—with th e ir fin­gers crossed to encourage the gas supply.

Bou(iuets to Esther Wells and all her committees for ar rang ing and p lanning everything. And thanks to the chaperones—Mrs. Seelbach Mrs. Ellies, Miss M eeder and Miss Fors tner — four regu lar fellows I

After calculating the total enroll* nicnt to date the reg is trar’s office an­nounces a d rop of 753 students u n d e r last year’s total of 1900, b r ing ing this year 's total to 1147.

As compared with 1349 last year, there are now 525 m en in school, a difference of 824. T h e 194243 wom« an's enrollm ent, however, is topped by 171 students, b r ing ing the new total to 622.

In the school of Engineering the n u m b er of s tudents has fallen from 1068 to 499, while the H om e Ec school has risen from 271 to 282, only 11 above last year’s figure. A d rop of 187 students, from 496 to 309, has iieen recorded for the school of Bus­iness Administration.

ff o m e n F nffineers

Because of the needs for women engineers in industry and the short­age of m en in this career a t the pres­ent time, statistics show that there is a total of 17 wom en en ro lled in the various schools of E ngineering here. Among these are 5 Ju n e f reshmen, 11 Sejiteniber freshmen, and 1 soph­omore.

This total en ro l lm en t is supp le ­m ented by the ad d i t ion of several h u n d red servicemen u nde r the Army Specialized T ra in ing P ro g ram with an intensive curricu lum in the Engineer ­ing school.

T he Lexerd will be p r in te d by sections this year, and those D ecem ber seniors not having photographs taken by October 15 will have the ir p ictures om itted from the year book.

T hose seniors who have n o t filled out a list of activities card will be sent another, a n d a re requested to fill it out and to place i t in the Lexerd m ail box. F o r the D ecem ber seniors, the dead-line for th is is also October 15.

Have a Coca-Cola = Howdy, Neighbor

It’s natural for popular names to acquire friendly abbreviations. That’s why you hear Coca-Cola called “Coke”.
