rr rr rr 1r r 1r Westward Ho!

"Go West, young woman," and join us at Kappa's 43rd ·Biennial Convention June 23-30, 1960, at the Hotel del Coronado, Coronado Beach, California.

Where else can you get a package deal such as this? For enjoyment, there's California's famous sun, sand, and surf, and the exciting social events the convention committee is planning. For education and training in chapter techniques, there's the Leadership School which was so enthusiastically received at its inception at the 1958 Convention, and an excellent program of workshops which will be equally valuable to the alumnre. For inspiration, there's the unforgettable thrill of attending a Kappa Convention and meeting your sisters from all parts of the United States and Canada.

Those who attend for the first time are always intrigued to discover the existence of a group called, "The Habiteers." To qualify for membership, one must have attended at least five conventions. As you might expect, the rapidly-expanding membership includes almost all of your Fraternity officers and chairmen; what might surprise you is that many lay-Kappas are also represented.

There are numerous alumnre who have formed the "Convention Habit," and who join us because they have discovered how interesting, stimulating, and enjoyable these conferences are. As a matter of fact, many actives attend both the Conventions which occur while they are undergraduates, and thus are well on their way to acquiring that "Convention Habit." Perhaps we should form a Junior Auxiliary for them!

Come and see for yourselves what these many Kappas have found to be true­ Convention is the greatest. Westward Ho! We'll see you next June.

It seats 60 at the six large French provincial cherry tables. A large modern kitchen is com­ pletely equipped even to the popular and much­ used ice making machine. Divided into two sec­ tions separated by work counters, cooking and serving is easily done. A large storage pantry, servant's room and service entry are on the side.

Simplicity and graciousness are the two best words to describe the decor. Yellow and aqua accentuate the sheer white of the living room while the library features dusty green, gold, and aqua. Set against green and gold wallpaper, the new light walnut of dining room tables, add to the idea of gracious living. Crystal and gold chandeliers predominate on the first floor. Completely in the new addition of the house, the kitchen is divided into two sections one for cooking, and one for serving. Wood cabinets and stainless steel fixtures, a new stove, dishwasher, store room, and waiters' area are all new. The house director's suite consists of a bed­ room, private bath and a large sitting room which may be converted into a guest room. A new powder room, men's room, and several closets complete the addition to the first floor. Downstairs there is a brand new chapter room concealed from "outsiders" by sliding louvered doors. The enlarged "bumroom" now extends across the front of the house. The spaciousness of this room is a welcome addition, since now one group can enjoy the Hi-Fi (a gift of the Mothers' Club) at one end, while others watch TV with a minimum of disturbance. The second and third floor rooms have all been renovated. In the new wing each floor has two new rooms, a sleeping porch, a laundry room, (Continued on page 49)

I n my opmwn, we are in danger of developing a cult of the Common Man, which means a cult of mediocrity. But there is at least one hopeful sign: I have never been able to find out just who this Com­ mon Man is. In fact, most Americans-especially women-will get mad and fight if you try calling them common. This is hopeful because it shows that most people are holding fast to an essential fact in American life. We believe in equal opportunity for all, but we know that this includes the opportunity to rise to leadership. In other words-to be uncommon. Let us remember that the great human advances have not been brought about by mediocre women and men. They were brought about by distinctly uncommon people with vital sparks of leadership. Many great leaders were of humble origin, but that alone was not their greatness. It is a curious fact that when you get sick you want an uncommon doctor; if your car breaks down you want an uncommonly good mechanic; when we get into war we want dreadfully an uncommon ad­ miral and uncommon general. I have never met a father and mother who did not want children to grow up to be uncommon men and women. May it always be so. For the future of America rests not in mediocrity, but in the constant renewal of leadership in every phase of our national life.-HERBERT HoovER.

62 College Life .. . at DePauw

College life on a no-car and no-drinking campus such as DePauw University in Greencastle means friendli­ ness with fellow students. and camaraderie with fac­ ulty members. Kappa, on such a campus, say Iota members Helen DeLong and Mary Ave, means "the friendliness of the campus carried inside the walls of a red brick house, where it stimulates and nourishes warm companionship and close ties."

Each class in the Iota house proudly claims a queen. Here ore Nancy Weesner, junior , Inter­ fraternity Council Queen, Nancy Landrum, sen­ ior, Old Gold Day Homecoming Queen, Anita Hursh , sophomore, Miss Indiana of 1958.

The " Double" across from the Koppa House is De­ Pauw's spot for meetings, get-togethers and bridge foursomes. Here Iota's activity girls meet for cokes and coffee.
