They were a nominating committee, resolu- tions committee, and time and place committee. The latter was to select the time and place of the two conventions that are to be held next year. After the business session the delegates divided into discussion groups. Each of these discus- sions were led by some man prominent in the journalistic world. P. D. McLean, managing} editor of the Raleigh Times, spoke to the group of newspaper editors; Jonathan Daniels, editor of the News and Observer, led the magazine editors; the editors of annuals were headed by Her- bert Hitch of the Charlotte En- graving Company. All business managers met with A. M. Beck of Edwards and _ Broughton Printing Company, Raleigh. A banquet was held Friday night at the Carolina Pines Club- house. Rev. Joseph Fletcher, sity delivered a talk at a Pro- gressive Dinner given Friday night, April 27th. His speech was centered around the evils of sororities and fraternities. New officers for the Federation were elected as follows: Presi- dent, Ken Goodson, from Cataw- ba College; Vice-President, John Stanko from State College; Sec- retary, Margaret McLean, from Salem College, and Ethel Vick from East Carolina Teachers Col- lege for Treasurer. The installation of the new of- ficers was performed during din- ner Saturday night, April 28th, which was followed by a dance, bringing the conference to a close. ANNOUNCES ANNUALS WILL SOON BE OFF PRESS An announcement by the Edi- tor of the Tecoan, Frances Har- vey, has been made in regard to the annual for this year. The annual should be off the press in about one week. However, the annual will not be given to the students until all bills have filed out. These were followed by the active pall beare and the ministers. The services were concluded at the grave, in Gr wood cemetery, with the hymn “Abide With Me,” by the choir. Never has there been seen in Greenville such beautiful floral tributes, there were many hand- some designs from all over the State, from many organizations, official groups, clubs and socie- ties, as well as a great many relatives and friends. The Student Body sent the school seal with the college colors, purple and gold, worked out in lavender and yellow flowers. The Alumnae Association also had the college colors represented. The regular marshals of the college and ten young men of the college acted as ushers. The business houses of Green- ville were closed during the fun- eral services as a mark of due respect to one of its leading citi- zens. All members of the immediate family were present: Mrs. Robert H. Wright, Dr. and Mrs. Robert H. Wright, Jr., of Phoebus, Va.; Mr. and Mrs. Don Cadman, of Chappaqua, N.
