At this meeting, the new officers of Kappa Xi and the delegates for the National Convention were chosen. Joan Potee, a sophomore, and either freshman Mary Berkey or Anna Gaddis will represent Kappa Xi at the 33rd annual National Phi Theta Kappa Convention in Miami Beach, Florida, from April 3 to April 5. St. Mary’s delegates, the first to attend a national convention, will travel by plane to Miami where they will stay at the Deauville Hotel. Spring ’63 Officers The new officers chosen for the Kappa Xi Chapter are Linda (Continued on Page 5) Carroll Jump, Sophomore, Chosen Campus "Best Dressed" Coed Carroll Jump Protocol to Be Topic Of State Department Speaker Mr. Pedro Sanjuan, Director of the Special Protocol Section of the State Department, will speak to the International Relations Club of SMJC on Monday, April 1, 3:30 p.m., in the Science Lec-turt Room. Mr. Sanjuan's speech topic, “Protocol,” is the objective of his State Department position, for the duties of the Special Protocol Section include an assurance of dignified treatment for all diplomats and foreign visitors in the United States. The State Department has recently been concerned with the civil rights controversies in our country, as this problem remains one of the “stumbling blocks in our foreign relations.” Thus, Mr. Sanjuan recently addressed the Maryland State Leg- Assembly in favor of Civil Rights legislation. Mr. Sanjuan is the first State Department Official to address not only a legislative assembly, but also a county council, and a state constitutional convention. Each of his speaking appearances has been at the request of state and municipal authorities. Civil Bights Legislation Likewise, he worked on the Route 40 equal accommodations legislation in Maryland and similar legislation in Delaware, Tennessee, and Virginia, including work on a fair housing law for the District of Columbia. He spent the years between 1956 and 1959 in the United States Navy. Post-graduate work in Russian Studies at Harvard qualified Mr. Sanjuan as special Russian instructor to the United States Naval Attache to Moscow, interrupting his training as a Naval flier. Other Naval assignments included work in the Soviet desk of the office of Naval Intelligence in Washington and stall duty in Frankfurt am Main, Germany. Russian is not the only language which Mr. Sanjuan speaks fluently. He can speak Spanish, French, and German and also handle Bulgarian, Portuguese, Italian, and Serbo-Croatian. Carroll Jump, a sophomore at St. Mary’s Junior College, has 1 been chosen to represent SMJC in Glamour magazine’s “Ten Best Dressed College Girls” contest for 1963. Glamour will single out those ten college girls from Canada and the United States who, on the basis of their contest entries, are the most poised, at tractive, and fashionable of the the collegiate set. Entries for the contest include three on-campus photographs of the candidates: in casual clothes suitable for college class wear; in a Sunday or date dress with appropriate accessories such as gloves, hat ,and well chosen pieces of jewelry; and in a full-length evening gown such as the candidate would wear to a formal college prom. Carroll’s formal gown choice was of woven Hong Kong silk with an intricately embroidered gold leaf pattern placed symmetrically on a vivid and deep-hued green-turquoise background. Gold shoes and Carroll’s own golden blond medium length hair picked up the gold accents of the gown. Qualifications Along with the submitted photographs and additional facts about each candidate, Glamour judges recheck the requirements by which each candidate was originally chosen in a campus popular vote. Well-kept hair, impeccable grooming, good figure and the candidate’s clear understanding of her fashion type, are, for instance, several of the qualities by which the judges will rate each candidate. The “Top ten,” will be flown to New York City in June and will be featured in a special section of Glamour’s ’63 August College Issue. Besides the top ten prizes, several honorable mention awards will be given. Miss Judy Peper, a 1961 graduate of St. Mary’s, won such an honor.

The members of the committee are Mary Louise Courtney, Ainsley Lloyd, Abell Longmore, Kathy McKenna, Betsy Reeves, Jean Schauber, and John Slade. The committee chairman is Sue Faunt-leroy, and the sponsors are Miss Simms and Mr. Yarborough. A Student Endowment Fund is a loan fund supported by Student contributions for the benefit of the students. Each student is requested to pay a nominal fee each semester. This money, in turn, will be kept in an account separate from school funds. Half of the money may be handled by the alumni or a student committee to make loans to students. The other funds may be handled by the faculty, working with the County Board of Education, for the purpose of awarding scholarships. Nationwide Idea The idea for the fund came from Mrs. Nita Tullier of Biloxi, Mississippi. She initiated such a fund at the University of Southwestern Louisiana in 1924. Since that time, her alma mater has accumulated approximately $460,- 000 to be used for student loans and scholarships. The St. Mary’s committee is currently gathering information from colleges which have successful endowment programs. This information will serve as a guide for establishing a plan at SMJC If approved by faculty and students in May of 1963, the Student Endowment Fund will go into effect the following September. Slade Wins Contest John Slade is the winner of the annual TIME magazine current affairs test, sponsored by the International Relations Club of the college in conjuntion with TIME’S educational program. John chose Roget’s THESAUR-AUS as his contest prize.
