The bread." .What we mean is that rushing is the usual gnpey business, and it seems to us that m this age of labor-saving devices something ought to be done about it. Now out plan is this (You I. F. C. represontn 11xc.s cut out that giggling and pay attention.) Giro each & cveiy freshman a slip of paper with his name on it. If lie wants to be a fraternity boy, he diops his slip in a barrel, which could be sot up on Co-op or someplace. After all the names are in the banc), each lodge sends down a delegate for the Grand Opening The delegates arc blindfolded and allowed to draw a handful of names out of the band, the guy with the biggest hands getting the most slips The freshman is automatically pledged to whichever fintemity diew his name, and no back-talk Simple, huh? Of course there would be a few minor complica tions, such as one house di awing a bunch of good foot ball men, in which case the house could be pretty certain that the whole pledge class would be migrating to Pitt or Syracuse at the end of the semester. Well, m a fix like that, lodges could trade pledges, just like ip the big leagues. The Collegian would simply run r bunch of ads, such as: WANTED—Good snappy pianist. Will trade one valedictorian, guaranteed no less than 2 0 average Call Zilch, Delta Phi Tau.
