College memories stored collectively in 1974 Warbler The Warbler is an offspring of the W'apper, which first appeared in 1913. Individual class manuscripts preceded the W'Apper. The school annual Warbler, which began in 1919, went from paperback to a hardbound book. Originally a skinny little "bird" of 120 pages, the Warbler grew plump and colorful averaging approximately 400 pages annually. In its early years the yearbook pages were designed purposely with wide margins complying with the wish of class members to exchange the books for autographing. The annual now serves as a memory book, a book which students do not realize how much they value until they become Eastern alumni. Revenue for the Warbler is allocated out of student fees which insures each full-time student a free copy of the yearbook. To generate more money, for the first time, the Greek social sororities and fraternities, as well as the clubs and organizations, had to pay to have their picture in the yearbook. Other money was generated from sitting fees on class portraits. In its historical 75th year this year's staff didn't realize how difficult the production of the Warbler would be until they plunged full force into work on the book. They strove in earnest to produce a delightful historical rendition of Eastern in all of its 75 years. The staff soon learned the ropes of putting a yearbook together, but not without first experiencing budgetary problems, time conflicts in scheduling organization pictures, layout disagreements, lack of photographers and the last-minute mad rush to meet the 100-page deadlines.

Beginning as a monthly, the first editions were four pages, each four columns wide, containing chiefly sports news. The newspaper advanced to a weekly publication meant only to give a week-to-week account of the school'sactivities. A The fall of 1971 the publication was increased to thrice weekly. . But as enrollment grew and activities heightened, the Eastern News increased its publication to a daily student newspaper, averaging 12 pages a day. In its early efforts it was a collection of social activities, events and a calendar of general college information. Later it advanced in literary style with special features added to make it a more enjoyable newspaper. Eventually it picked up community news, as well as news on the national level, which came across the Associated Press wire machine. Thus the Eastern News stands today. In its time the News has received many consecutive yearly awards. Constructive civic work, best front page, improvement of editorial department and many others were award winners for the student newspaper. In 1973, the Eastern News was judged by Pi Delta Epsilon, national publications honorary, as the best college newspaper among approximately 120 en tries.

Again in 1964 the News was involved in an abrupt termination of an editorship. Jon Woods, was fired from his position by President Quincy Doudna after a dispute between the editor and the adviser, Kenneth Hessler. The newspaper was again suspended from publication for a brief time. Many "firsts" at Eastern are credited to the News, including the first Homecoming election and the school band, organized because of efforts of the paper. Also on the list of accomplishments is the name for the athletic teams. The title "Panthers" was chosen in a contest sponsored by the News on Oct. 16, 1930. Another "first" for the News this year, besides going daily, was the appointment of the first black editor. Anothy Blackwell was appointed by the Publications Board as summer editor 1973. Several events highlighted the Eastern News this past year. An "extra" issue was printed during Homecoming, which found many dedicated staff members working late Friday night in order that students and alumni would be informed the following day that there would be no Homecoming Queen in 1973. In November man y of the staff members went to Chicago for an Associated Collegiate Press Convention. Tips for a successful newspaper publication were picked up. Attending convention members also enjoyed a period of relaxation, a change from the tensed, fast-

Beginning in 1922 money was allocated from student fees for the newspaper. This allocated money, in addition to revenue generated from the advertisers, financed the paper. With the steady influx of advertisements, the Eastern News was bringing in enough money to become a daily newspaper this fall. Money generated from advertisements financed approximately 60 per cent of the Eastern News this past year. When it was reorganized the editor and business manager were chosen by the Student Council, subject to the approval of a faculty committee and the University President. In 1931 a student-faculty board began choosing staff heads and in 1964 another change was made which gave the selection to the advisers. Editors are now chosen by the Publications Board upon recommendation by the advisers. Turbulence reigned in January of 1959 when disagreement among the administration, News staff and student-faculty Publications Board became so heated that Editor Bruce A.

moving pace always found in the Eastern News office. A fire which broke out in one of the storage rooms brought a little excitement and a change of pace to the News cla_n in late January. The cause of the fire and the extent of damages are still unknown. This year reporting and coverage for the News was more advanced than in the past. Reporters travelled to Chicago and Springfield to cover Board of Governors meetings and meetings of the Illinois Board of Higher Education. The News also sent a reporter to meet with Governor Walker to discuss the proposed tuition hike. The Eastern News was attacked verbally by 29 Pemberton Hall girls who accused the News of biased reporting during the civil service strike which lasted throughout October. The complainants demanded that the Eastern News staff be investigated by the student Publications Board. An investigation cleared the Eastern News of any biased reporting and found that the News was giving as accurate reporting as could be achieved under the circumstances at the time. c

Editor J ann Briesacher and associate editor Janet Blauvelt collected hundreds of Pringle cans for delivery of their fall issue and completed proofing, editing and make-up of the magazine each semester. WELH, the campus radio station, provides 17 hours of programming a day. Operation began in 1962 when six students used homemade equipment to transmit a signal to their fellow residents of East Lincoln Hall, thus the call letters became WELH. In 1963 WELH was granted a room in Booth Library and in 1968 it moved to Coleman Hall. In 1972 the station became a part of Charleston's cable television system, thus sending its signal to townspeople as well as on campus housing. Programs have gradually increased in variety. Progressive rock, soul music and jazz are played every week. The station received its first community award in 1973 from the Illinois Heart Association " In Recognition of Distinguished Volunteer Service in the Fight Against Heart and Blood Vessel Diseases."

Incoming freshmen The change in Eastern's academic scheduling, from quarters to semesters, necessitated a change in the Greek formal rush system. As a result of the semester switchover, incoming freshman girls were able to pledge. In the past, a second quarter freshman status was required. Also changed were the formal rush parties. Formal rush parties were held three months earlier than formal rush parties in the past. In an effort to reach out to more freshmen, who were yet unaware of a Greek system, sorority rush began on Aug. 26, the arrival day of many &eshmen at Eastern. Sorority girls helped freshmen move into their dormitory rooms. Attempting to give the parents a glimpse of the Greeks, the Delta Zeta sorority and Sigma Pi fraternity , winners of spring's Greek Sing, provided musical entertainment at the parents' convocation. Following the convocation, sorority and fraternity members conducted tours of the campus for parents and freshmen. That evening, an ice cream social and band were jointly sponsored by the Interfraternity (IFC) and Panhellenic (Panhel) Councils. The following day, IFC and Panhel sponsored a wiener roast. To further acquaint the freshman and other curious non-Greek students with different aspects of Greek life, slides were shown in the residence halls on Aug. 28. On Sept. 5 the sororities sponsored "It's Greek to Me," now able to pledge E D an orientation to Greek life, followed by formal teas at the individual sorority houses on Sept. 25, 27 and Oct. 1. Formal pledge night for both sororities and fraternities was Oct. 2. An all-Greek dance sponsored by IFC and Panhel followed the individual house initiation ceremonies. Fraternity rush procedures were similar to sorority rush, with the exception of the formal parties. Each fraternity house was assigned an hour during a designated week to hold a smoker. On the weekends, each house had the option of having another party if they wished. Coordinators for all formal rush activities were Ed McClane, IFC vice president, and Paula Roberts, vice president of Panhel.

The Greeks are proud of their existence and they want everyone to know it. For the past 10 years the Greek houses have joined efforts and produced a Greek Week hoping to unify all the houses. From the road rally on April 29 to Greek Sing on May 6, the Greeks participated in various activities, often in a competitive fashion. Probably the biggest event of the competition was the tug-of-war. Again this year only the fraternities were allowed to enter this competition because of its rugged nature. Kathy Pepping Yanko, Greek Week chairman, said the games originated from the Olympic Games. D They have come to be small mock-Olympic games. Tying the whole week together was the kegger-all Greeks turn out for this and drink in unity. This year found Paula Galor, Sigma Sigma Sigma, and Rick Purdue, Sigma Pi, crowned Greek Queen and King. Together they reigned over the Greek Week festivities. Greek Week reached its fmale with the fraternities and sororities finally competing in Greek Sing. Songs and costumes were varied from "Heart of My Heart," greaser style to "Day by Day" with long dresses. The Women of Delta Zeta captured the overall Greek Week trophy, while the Men of Sigma Chi and Phi Sigma Epsilon tied for the same trophy in the fraternity division. B E

A B Panhel council represents sororities Eastern's first college-recognized sorority was born early Sunday morning, Dec. 19, 1938, when 13 student founders and an adviser conducted installation ceremonies for the local Alpha Tau Nu at 1548 Fourth St. The movement for the sorority began at Eastern in the fall term of 1938 when the group which called themselves TriSorores petitioned the_ faculty committee on student organizations for recognition. They received their recognition, but were on a probationary period for two years. When asked about the purpose of the group, president Marsha Moore said, "We are anxious to open avenues of expression for the gracious womanliness which exists in every Eastern girl, to foster the acquisition of the social graces among Eastern women, to promote the general welfare of women at Eastern, and to promote high ideals, moral integrity, and character development among Eastern women." To achieve better communications among the Greek women and to insure more unified activities, the Panhellic Council was established. A National Organization, Panhel is composed of each of the seven sorority presidents plus two girls from each house. Panhel discusses problems which relate to sorority relations and common goals. They plan the rush program and coordinate ideas on pledgeship. Panhellic Council strives to gain greater recognition for Eastern sororities on campus.
