FIVE FRATERNITIES ASSAIL PROPOSED RUSHING SYSTEM Object That Chapters With New Homes Would Benefit by Two-weeks* Season THIRTY-FOUR SILENT ON COUNCIL’S'QUESTIONARY Investigating Committee Secures No Response—Points to Codes Elsewhere Basing their objections chiefly on the supposition that fraternities with new homes would benefit by the adop tion of the proposed rushing code, five houses have voiced their opmions in letters to W. C. Ament '27, chairman of the committee appointed to investi gate conditions and to frame a satis factory code, by the Inter-fraternity council Ament expressed himself as being dissatisfied with the attitude which fraternities have taken toward the let er sent them. Thirty-nine letters were mailed askirg for co-operation and but five groups have answered. “I believe that a system whereby there would be a two-weeks’ rushing season would help the smaller fratern ity m its problem. In two weeks the freshman will have had an opportunity to look over the groups and judge correctly, disrcgaidmg the glamor of a beautiful home,” declared Ament. The committee has received answers from other institutions regarding their rushing codes. These responses have been of little value to the body as conditions at most colleges differ widely’ from the situation here. Large dormitories where freshmen may live during rushing season simplifies the problem materially.

What think ye of such economical transportation?”, The second-year lad studiously a voidcd a reply, but finally muttered in reference to the Penn game, “If I only can!” He bought a can and got canned before the Dean canned him.
