Senate Committee
Revokes Disputed
Date Regulation
Revoking the regulation set
earlier this Summer, unchaper
oned dating will be permitted in
fraternity houses, the Senate
Committee on Student Welfare
said today.
The action complied to a peti
tion sent to the Committee by
members of Inter-Fraternity
Council attending Summer Ses
sions.
In making the announcement,
Dean-Arthur R. Warnock, secre
tary of the Senate Committee, is
sued the following'statement:
“After consideration of your pe
tition by the chairman of the
Senate Committee bn Student
Welfare, the Dean of Men, and
the Dean of Women, it was de
cided to grant the privilege of
unchaperoned dating as re
quested.”
The petition for dating at fra
ternity houses was initiated due
to the intensive lack of social and
recreational facilities at the Col
lege, said Willard F. Agnew, IFC
president.
Fraternity dating during Sum
mer Sessions must conform with
the Inter-Fraternity Council .code
for. .unchaperoned' dating during
regular semesters, Agnew said.

Banker Analyzes
Graduates' Fanils
" Inaccuracy is the. worst fault of
our high, school graduates,' said
Rpbert N. Hilkert,. vice-president
: and,; personnel • director of .the
.Philadelphia Federal Reserve
.Bank. He.spoke before the Penn
sylvania Workshop to a group of
elementary and secondary school
teachers yesterday.
Other fields •in which high
school graduates fall down when
they enter business include in
concise .memorandums,, to listen
abilities -to "read, to write short,
carefully, and to be considerate
and courteous with other people,
, Hilkert said.
" - "Another fault,” Hilkert stated,
“is .that many youngsters are not
familiar, with the'word ‘order.’ In
business they • immediately come'
under the supervision of bosses,
■ and ' must ■ become used to au
thority.”
“High school graduates must
also become accustomed to a Jack
of .variety, for the modem office
is a highly specialized and mech
anized place,” the personnel di
rector declared, “Offices are just'
filled with unglamorous, deadend
jobs.”

thms instead of the more popu

convey the spirit and story of
each dance. Although each dance
has a set form, the performers
may interpret the movements of
a dance to convey emotions.

numbers by Albeniz make up the
