No-Dating Rule
Limited association among
freshman, transfer, and sorority
women was .abolished this week
because rushees felt obligated to
meet sorority women even though
it meant giving up all their free
time to rushing.
In addition, sorority women
have found it difficult to carry, on
extra-curricular activities and
rushing duties at the same time.
This change means that there
will be no more dutch T treat dates
in the Sandwidi Shop and down
town restaurants. However, sor
ority women may talk with rush
ees at any time on campus.
Although sorority women may
not visit in Women’s Building
lobby at any time, they will be
permitted to talk with rushees in
-McAllister Hall lobby for only 15
minutes before and after meals.
Another change eliminates bas
ketball dates, except for tonight’s
game, during which no more than
three sorority women may'be tor.
gether with‘rushees.
Limited association will be re
newed during formal rushing
season next semester. This means
that get-togethers will be the only
opportunity for rushees to see
sorority''women.
Rushees have been urged to at
tend as many get-togethers as they
wish. If they are certain, how
ever, that they have no interest
in joining a sorority, they, should
not hesitate to refuse invitations
since it is a waste of sorority wo
men’s time to continue rushing
them if they are not interested.

• War Relief?”
■This bit of verse is attached to
a straw basket, conspicuously de
corated with. a red bow, in the
Nittany Lion Inn lobby. Woolen
yarn of many shades, some- of
which is knitted into tiny squares,
is found in the basket. Some is
still wound - in balls of green,
orange, blue, and beige yam—
-waiting for nimble fingers to un
wind and knit into afghan squares.
Partially knitted squares hang on
■bone needles left; by a hurried
patron for another to finish.;
For those who cannot- knit, a
cardboard container labeled “A
dime will buy yam for another
afghan square” is -placed iii the
basket.
Suggestions hat(e been made
that a similar- basket be placed
in the Sandwich Shop so coeds
could let - something besides time
and cokes slip through their
fingers.
