At Annual Farm And Home

Convention .1 anuar v

The "host and hostess" idea is
being introduced
today at the
sweater session to be held from 4
to 5:30 p.m. in the ballroom of the!
Union building. It is the duty of
these hosts and hostesses to see
that people are introd iced and to
keep the sweater swing moving
along smoothly throughout the afaccording
to Jeannette
ternoon
Graves, chairman of the House committee.
Miss Graves stated that the
sweater swing is being thus
i
in the hope of gaining a
larger and more consistent attendance. She f miner said that the
sweater swings were originally intended to be very informal affairs
where students could drop in casually and dance, but that some people had occasionally come with
dates.
The House committee organized
the sweater swings with the under
standing that they would be "dateless" and. therefore, "stags" are
urged to attend. "However," Miss
Graves explained, "dates are per1
missible."
Hostesses and hosts for this afterjpn i 'i in

you're missing something.
Formed in the dark hours following ihe
"dawning of the dav of infamv." ilie panel discussion group which meets regularly on Wednesdays is designed to present "food for thought."
No student conscious of worldwide develop

This year the panel discussions are in the
