Miss Edith Zinn Enjoys Duties as Assistant Dean Theme Obiter Show: Reward For Patience and Fort itude Our recently appointed assistant Dean of Women , Miss Edith Zinn, has had experience in teaching and personnel work in large universities and small colleges. Miss Zinn was born in Huntingdon , Pennsylvania, but has called Altoona, Pennsylvania her home, since she spent most of her early life there. She was graduated from Juniata High School and Pennsylvania State University where she also received her Master of Arts degree. While at Penn State , Miss Zinn's m ajo rs were Art and English . Her graduate work also includes study at Columbia University in the Art and Educational fields and at Syracuse University, where she received her personnel training. In the capacity of Art Supervisor, Miss Zmn taught in the SunDury schools. While serving as Dean or Women at Penn State, iviiss Zinn wrote a handbook entitled "Mabitat Hints." This dooklet, similar to our own "Co-Piiot", nelps tne women of Penn State to become acquainted with rules, conveniences, etc. It is written in an informal, chatty manner. In addition to her duties as Dean of Women . Miss Zinn did a large amount oi orientation worn witn rresnmen. Her work included the task ot interviewing ail or tne treshmen women, who always numbered well over seven hundred. She also held the position or advisor to the Student Government Association. For a time Miss Zinn acted as Dean of Women at East Carolina College in Greenville, North Carolina. The south held a charm which Miss Zinn said, "no other section of the country has." While south, she learned to eat and enj oy the cornbread, bar-b-qued chicken and grits on which the southern folks pride themselves. Another southern college which was benetited by Miss Zinn's presence as Assistant Dean was Meredith College in Raleigh, South Carolina. Miss Zinn came to us after spending a semester at Endicott Junior College in Beverly, Massachusetts, near Boston. The college there was a very lovely one, according to Miss Zinn. It was situated on an area made up of eleven beautiful estates. Being so near Boston gave Miss Zinn an opportunity to visit museums and (Continued on page 6) Carver Auditorium, Feb. 16 — Not a creature was stirring—just Nancy Hyde in a low, exotic voice, introducing the 1956 variety of the Obiter Show in the form of a television program, "68,000,000 Question."

They included both faculty and students. Several persons were given pins after contributing a pint of blood, since this pint made a total of one gallon they have donated up to the present time. They are as follows: Dr. Thomas Martin, Donald Hildebrant, Elvin Thomas, Dale Springer, and William Carter. Congratulations to them. The .student committee should be commended on the excellent job they have done. It takes a great deal of good salesmanship to sell anyone the idea of giving blood. The following people served on the student committee: Janice Truscott (chairman), Mary Hoff ecker, Judy Stephens, Bobbi Roadside, Margaret Beers, Nancy Pierce, Emma Kovalevich. Peggy Markovci, Frank KaminskJ, Robert Arbogast, George Chaump, Bob Boyle, Harry Weist, Harry Conner, Arthur Lesher and Joanne Graeber.
