The AWS Council consists of two representatives from each women's living group. This group, under the direction of the Dean of Women, formulates policies and regulations for all women students. This year's project was the instituting of an orientation program for new women. Under direction of Bonnie Burnside, orientation chairman, a series of weekly meetings was held early in the fall. Programs at these meetings included information and notes on scholarship, etiquette, styles, friendliness, activities and the values of these. Faculty members and outstanding students were speakers at these meetings. One of the best-liked parties was the "get-together" with square dancing, and another popular meeting was a style show with university students modeling school fash'ions. Another victory sponsored and won by the AWS Council was permission for women to operate automobiles on the campus. Women's evening permissions were extended, also, through the work of Donna Chapman, AWS president, and the council members. Also sponsored by AWS was the annual May Fete for mothers on the weekend of Mother's Day. The crowning of the May Queen and the winding of the Maypole by the Spurs were highlights of the weekend. Mortar Board, Silver Lance, and Spurs tapped new members at this time. This year Donna Chapman was May Queen, Helen Rice, maid of honor, and Wilma Hodge, page.
