in the Changing World.”
"We must condition our minds
to this changing world and its
strong demands,” Miss O’Hara
declared. "We who have the ad
vantage of a college education
and access to a cultural back
ground must determine whether
-American standards and tradi
tions are worth fighting for.
"Today we are facing a condi

those with the ideaL of more liv

".Dangers and benefits are not
far away because we think we
can measure them in miles be
cause miles have shrunk,” Miss
O'Hara concluded.

WeThe Women
Rushing Committee
Solicits Your Opinion
This year's Rushing Code had
its faults. No one will deny it.
Complaints and criticisms both
during rushing and afterwards
have been numerous from fresh
men, from sorority women, and
from the administration. But that
is past. The problem now is what
can be done about it.
Heretofore destructive, criti
cism can become constructive if
diverted into the right channels
—if voiced to those persons
whose job it is to listen, to act.
Those who have so readily con
demned parts of the system can
benefit themselves as well as
others by complaining to mem
bers of the Panhellenic Rushing
Committee or to pledge presi
dents of each house who today
will begin revision of the code.
"If rushing took too much time,
why did it? If all breakfast dates,
lunch dates, and morning rushing
were eliminated, maybe we could
attend classes for the first 10 days
of the new semester. An 8 a.m.
to 9 p.m. stretch is a long time
carry on a sparkling .conversa - Mr a
tion, and to be a happy hostess,’ 1 JrJrJt J[Jf J M
