PRICE THREE CENTS IFC Will Take Poll Of Independent Men (See Editorial) A sharp warning to discontinue unfair rushing practices was iss ued to Penn State's 47 fraterni ties last night, as Interfraternity C until met in its first post-pledg ing meeting. "The very existence of frater nities as a campus institution is being endangered,'! Jesse S. Doo little, associate professor of me chanical engineering, stated in presenting the report of the IFC Judiciary Committee he heads. Fraternities cannot continue, Doolittle added, unless • they show more cooperation than has been displayed in some instances dur ing the past rushing season. Doolittle announced that the Judiciary Committee had found one fraternity guilty of the spirit of the IFC rushing code. •_Repri mand before Interfraternity Coun cil was the only punishment met ed out to the house. No further action will be taken, according to Doolittle, because the charges reported against the fra ternity were merely exaggerations of practices carried out in a lesser dgree by other fraternities: Doolittle's statements were re affirmed by Sheldon C. Tanner, professor of economics and busi ness law, beginning his 14th year as IFC advisor. Tanner added that he had heard talk of planned retalikion against "that fraternity" during the Fall semester rushing season. "Interfraternity good-will and prosperity demand much more than that," Tanner advised. "Only through complete cooperation can our fraternity system continue its multiple contributions to College life." Approved at last night's IFC meeting was a proposal to survey all . independent students on whether they wished to "go fra ternity." (Continued on Page Two) Finn Wins Stale Ad Competition William F.
