Nazi Youths
Teach Profs
"Since the reign of Hitler the
attitude of German students has
changed from taking advice of
professc•rs to telling them how to
run the university," said Dr. Ho
ward E. Yarna,ll, instructor in
German. in Atherton Hall's Fire
side Session last night.
In his discussion of "My Ex
periences as a Student in Ger
many," Dr. Yarnall contrasted
educationaq conditions before and
after Hitler. He said that there
is a marked decrease in the num
ber of women students, in accord
with the Nazi belief that woman's
place is the home.
"Majority of women who at
tend college are from families
having !ntellectual tradition and
moderato income," Yarnall stated.

Panhel—Ribbons.
Or Blackballs?
A slap on the back or a slap
in the face—Panhel has earned
both this year. '
Before handing out ribbons and
blackballs to Panhellenic Council,
we should consider it as a heter
ogeneous group of Greeks attempt
ing to act as a homogeneous one.
So far as debating and forget
ting individual house representa
tion, Panhel acts with merit. As
a defense action, council members
voted to reduce inforthal party
budgets . ss each. This money plus
an additional sum froM the trea
sury will prOvide a $ . 10 . 0 deferise
bond and a coed scholarship.
Disagreement arises when prob
lems pertinent to rushing are
brought before the council. After
vague consideration, a more vague
motion is passed, recorded in the
minutes, and remembered by all
except guilty houses. Innocent
ignorance is inevitably the plea
preSented to Panhellenic Judiciary
Board.
• A member of one campus house
disregarded limited contact by
playing bridge in the Salndwich
Shop with a frosh rushee. Another
Greek phoned for a basketball
date at noon when Panhel stated
that dates should not be made un
til 6:30 p. m. Still another soror
ity woman talked with rushees
during strict silent period. - Each
offender was from a different
house and would have burned had
she. witnessed the same acts.
Panhellenic s rushing code has
received the acid test of exper
ience and has been revised an
nually, but it , still inadequately
covers arising disputes. Since
any code seems to have discrep
ancies, the plausible solution
seems to lie in additional cooper
ation of every house since each
is -responsible for successful sor
ority rushing and relations.

tive writing from controversial

ment, followed their five_ minute

sion prompted by audiehce ques
tion's:
