Delta Delta, and nicliard Wat-kinTriangle,. were named the
outstanding Greek man and
woman last night at the annual
Creek Week convocation in
Memorial Hall.

Their selection from a group of
11 finalists was announced by Assistant Dean of Men Kenneth

M. Seward.

Miss Tobin and Watklns will be
crowned at the dance tomorrow
night In the Student Union Build-in.

Preceding the announcement
authoress Emily Kimbrough delivered the convocation address
urging everyone "to move out from
isolation of languages and establish channels of communication by

speech."
Miss Kimbrough pointed out that
there was too much emphasis in
schools today on translation of
foreign languages and not enough
on speaking the language.
She suggested that a foreign
language be taught In the first
grade with such aids as songs and
game. This could be substantiated
later by the rules of the language,
Miss Kimbrough added.
As an example of many colleges'
failure to teach language properly.
Miss Kimbrough pointed to Ful- -

she had talked
with. She said persons receiving
the scholarships now found it
necessary to go abroad before the
term begins in order to be able to
communicate when school begins.
She added, too, that because of
broadening geographic horizons it
is becoming necessary for people
to lead lives in other parts of the
world. Miss Kimbrough said everyone should be aware of the changes
coming about in languages.
Miss Tobin, a vocational home
economics senior with a 3.6 overall
standing, was nominated by PI
