MOVE TO CURB BUTLERDANGES Limit Put on Pay Affairs Effective Next Term. New dance rules limiting the number of pay dances of Butler University organizations will go into effect next semester, according to Dean Evelyn Butler, chairman of the faculty committee on student social affairs. In a recent meeting of the committees, Miss Butler expressed the general feeling of the faculty that the “dance situation at Butler is not satisfactory.” She said pay dances have not been found to promote the desired student acquaintance and college spirit. The new rules, she said, would be concentrated on making the class, Union, and League dances “strictly college affairs.” Members of the committee are Dean Butler, Professors Sarah Baumgartner, A. D. Beeler, H. E. Jensen, G. H. Shadinger and Ida Wilhite. Pay dances, they decided, should be limited to one a semester by the Men’s Union; one each semester by the Women’s League; one a year by each class, and invitational dances of campus organizations limited to one a semester. TEACHES 44 YEARS 1 Shortridge Veteran Resigns Post as Instructor. Miss Amelia Waring Platter, for forty-four years a member of the Shortridge High School faculty, has resigned her position as mathematics instructor. Her resignation will take effect Jan. 1. Miss Platter was injured in a taxi cab accident in the city in January. She did not fully recover and the work involved in teaching had become too much of a strain. Several years ago she was cited and decorated by Principal George Buck as one of the “Shortridge Immortals,” in appreciation of her many years of distinguished service to the school.
