Annex to Punish Students Who Cut Mass Assemblies

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

Radcliffe's Student Council named four new undergraduate officers and drew up a tentative system of penalizing abacutees from mass assemblies yesterday afternoon at the first Council meeting of the fall term.

Jane Rainie '50 and Alice Steer '50 will share the chairmanship of the new dormitory-commuter committee. Elizabeth Menzel '51 will wield the baton at the annual Annex song contest on the Quadrangle this term. Mia Atherton '51 was named to head the Alumnae fund committee.

If decisions of yesterday's Council debate take effect this term, mass meeting absentees will be assigned one and a half extra hours of work probably waiting on table in the dormitories over winter weekends.

What will happen to commuters who cut the meetings will come up for discussion next week.

Annex mass meetings are compulsory. Until now, absentees have been fined for cuts.

The new system, which will go before the Board of Hall Presidents for consideration, will cut out the red tape of collecting the money.

Yesterday the Council also started its new method of curbing unauthorized charges around the Square. Annex students who set out to charge items to Student Government will be challenged to show an identification cardissued by Braverman '50, Treasurer of the Association.
