The collection at the service will be divided between the church (for use of the building) Fraternities and sororities aie and the Green Feather Drive- making a special cooperative effort this year to keep Greek Week constructive and comparatively inexpensive. Green Feather Aims At $2250 Thru Carni Gras The Green Feather Committee has announced fraternity and sorority pairings for the Carni Gras climaxing the Green Feather campaign to be held on November 21 on the athletic field at Emily Hall. A half-page of publicity in the Stetson Reporter will be given to each member of the pair whose booth makes the largest donation to the Green Feather Campaign- It is expected that the goal of $2250 can be exceeded. The emphasis of the drive this year is on giving and not on the projects during the drive. The following fraternities and Sigma Nu and Alpha Xi Delta, Pi sororities will co-sponsor booths: Kappa Phi and Zeta Tau Alpha, Sigma Phi Epsilon and Alpha Chi Omega, Lambda Chi Alpha and Pi Beta Phi, Pi Kappa Alpha and Phi Mu, Delta Sigma Phi and Delta Delta Delta. The main emphasis of this year's drive will be on dorm solicitations and the Carnival. Joe Dodge and Sue Johnston, co-chairman of solicitation, are organizing dorm committees which will operate November 18-20. An undisclosed prize is being offered to the dorm members making the largest contribution to the drive. The decision will be made on a percentage basis in order to be fair to small dorms. Fred Jefferson and Committee members have been instrumental in arranging for donation of electrical supplies, prizes, and other carnival attractions. This year's drive will be confined to the campus, and outside donations will be neither solicited nor received. In the past it has been the policy to accept money from people outside the University community; however the Committee feels that this is not in keeping with the idea of a Stetson drive. The Green Feather is Stetson's annual charity appeal and is the only official charity campaign 28 ELECTED TO SCHOOL, CLASS POSTS THREE SETTLED IN FIRST ELECTION VOTER TURNOUT APPROXIMATES NATIONAL PAR Wednesday run-offs for various school, college, and class offices decided final winners; however, when this paper went to press only the finalists were known.
