FUOSI Sophomore Assistants Jane Murphy, Mary "Jo Powell raduate Counsel 6 Tuesday, Maith 3, 1942 Wolf At The Door .A successful government, is based upon the will to be governed! This little axiom has thrown itself into the I;k2..th of the Interfraternity Council and has placed 4;his Council in one of the most precarious. posi aons that it:has witnessed in years. . We charge that the Couricit revised its mixed drinking code and marie it airtight, sound, and : , :..4asonable, with one exception. And that ex •ception has caused the reputation and sagacity Of •Lhe Council - to he put at stake. This exception has reflected little, if any, student approval, and ilas instigated the greatest interfraternity furor chat has hit the campus. The code states that there shall be no mixed drinking .in fraternities, chaperoned or itnehaP evoned. The Council claims that it redeiVed :?_aitiative from the All-College Cabinet legiSla ton prohibiting UnchaperOned mired drinking. But, in ''Copying the Cabinet laws; it inside its the big iniStake. Prehibited ehaper6n*d iniked clanking. We belieVe in hinnan frailties and hurnan faultS. We belieVe that, finder any circtirnitenees, will drink, openly or in tfraternitY Cellars; take the pious attitude that iniked drinking izan be absolutely forbidden and Obeyed IS aSiditi bog that a Mother; can make her child keep his hands Out Of tife Cookie jar. • The All-College Cabinet understood this. It took action to stop drinking sm.:l-OW . oft towns and roadhotiSes and locate it here under adequate chaperons. The administration did not voice its opinion in agreement or dislgreethent with this legislation. We maintain that unchap eroned mixed drinking became a minimum prac 'ace because of this legislation However, the All-College Cabinet thought that it thExie• it clear that mixed drinking could never Ihe. stopped, but limitations, sane and justifiable, could be imposed. Tie reaction of students to rcttis legislation seethed favorable. Then, the Interfratern ity Council threw a mon key wrench into the Machinery. It prohibited chaperoned drinking and immediately interfra liernity fireworks began to sparkle. Where fra 'lernities had even enforced a ban against chap eroned mixed drinking, they now openly defied fite measure a week after the dating code had been thlopted. • It is agreed that a respectable cocktail lounge lobated in Stare College would eliminate many b»ixed drinking Cases. That cannot be dOne be cause of a state legislature rule stating that liquor cannot be sold within a two-mile radius of- the campus. The All-College ruling prohibiting un chaperoned mixed drinking drove many couples who formerly went out of town to fraternity so life and eliminated the source of many un rl!.ivorable out of town tales of Penn State students. But what will the new iFr code do? It will either drive the students back to clandestine back ';z3d drinking. Bellefonte drinking bouts, or secret iolzvtions which reached their height during Sen io.• Ball weekend. Now, the IFC is facod with violations turned !;Jito its group, and it is afraid to announce or 11,;indle them. Why? It knows that it does not ve the full-voiced confidence of the fraternities, vd if a poll were taken of Penn State fraterni 11,es, ninety per cent of all the fraternities would ir , peal the present legiFlature and call for s a new :tl:ting code. We challenge such a poll! What is snore, we tf.,recast that if such a poll is not taken, the IFC 'will be treading more dangerous ground than a I..unb iollowed by a wolf pack We say that it k 11 , -Lter to retrace an e , ror than commit another. »..)t, the wolf will soon be the do‘lr. a~~~i~~vi~ma~ruinruna~n'niiunniiiir~iietiuii~niiirninriuit~i~itunny~in~ii~ii~i~~tin 111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111 Comes The Dawn All in all, Senior Ball was a crowded, sardinic success. Th:.. 1942er's li.:•t fling was characterized by the usual palpitation, syncopation, importa tier', and indignation.' H G. Hall came back from Michigan to gladden the heart of Pete Autan, and Audrey Schoemmel retOrned to Attend the theta formal with Pat Young. Other potatoes back for the drag were Eleanor Benfer, Les Lewis, and Robert. Moritz. . . . Lillian elark, who droi)p'ed out of school at the end of the first semest&r, came back with a bang to permadehtly shelve Becky Rtipp (so Fourth Floor Ath has it .. . ) Li!mts 11..1311 Amohgst the Aluinni wha rolled in for the brawl were Rusty Swift, all dresSed up in his sailor suit, and Jack Heck, ex-fistic moneyger. Only objections heard concerning the affair were that the programs ran out all too soon and that unless you were NN , it hin 50 feet of the band stand, Mr. Miller just couldn't be heard. Oh yes, and for a nominal fee we will give to IFC the names of 2,000 violalors of the mixed drinking code—all neatly inscribed on a grain of ride.

The cur rent season record of :16 triumphs out of 18 enadunters surpassed the old mark of . 15 successes last . year. Coupled with the . announce ment of the NCAA bid, it was also revealed that Penn State had received a "feeler" to participate in the National Intercollegiate Invitation Basketball Tourna.: ment at Madison Square Garden in New York City. Since both. tourneys are scheduled for the same weekend, the Lions decided to accept the more definite .bidi after realizing that the New York inviation was still pending. Coaches of three Lion opponents during the past season are on the committee that determines the District 2 representative. They are Lewis P. Andreas- of Syra cuse, Dr. H. C. Carlson of Pitt, and Howard G. Cann of New York U. Other District 2 teams that were considered for the bid were NYU, Wegt Virginia, CCNY, Johns of New York, and St. Jos ephs of Philadelphia. Pitt carried the torch in last year's NCAA tourney, going to the Eastern Regional finals be fore bowing to Wisconsin, who went on to win the national crown by defeating Washington State in the East-West finals. In 1940, Duquesne was the Dis trict 2 hope. The flon Dukes also advanced to the Eastern finals before fallirig, before Indiana University, who likewise, went on to cop the national title by overcoming Kansas in the East- West finals.
