played to decide the victors.

21-11 while Mink downed Cohen

biation or Davis and Shreiner

Registration for second semes
ter sorority rushing will be held
on Friday, February 10, and the
first formal affair inaugurating
the second rush season of this
year will be held the following
afternoon.
Registration is normally limit
ed to' those girls who are trans
fers or who have already secured
a 1.00 All-College average at the
College or in the case of fresh
man a 1.00 semester .average.
However, because of the short
time alloted to mid-semester va
cation it now apears that the
recorder's office will not have
sufficient time to determine the
averages of all students at the
College.
Grades Not Known '
The obvious conclusion of the
above is that freshni - en and other
girls desiring to be . rushed will
not know what their grades for
the first semester are by the re
gular means of receiving the data
from the recorder's office. And
likewise grades will not be known
on the day when prospective
rushees must register.
Rushing is a strenuous and time
consuming affair and the bumps
along the way are not always
easy to take; thus it would seem
that only those girls who really
can be sure of having the grades
eligible for admission to a so
rority should register and strug
gle through the ordeal of rush
ing.
Postcards
There is, however, one means
of knowing within a reasonable
length of time the grades which
are received and thus of knowing
if the prospect of rushing should
be attempted. This is by indivi
dually ascertaining the grade in
each specific course and the most
common way is by handing to
the professor of each course a
self-addressed postcard asking
for the final grade in his course.
As this method is a common prac
tice at the College, in the major
ity of cases the post 'card will be
returned , almost immediately to
the inquiring student.
Grades received in this manner
will not constitute any official
record which the dean of women's
office can use to check the schol
arship of each rushee and there
by determine whether she may
or may not be pledged. They will
however, impart to the individual
the knowledge necessary to know
vhether or not to begin rushing.

17-21,. and 21-11. The remaining
single gave Cohen a victory over
Abbey 21-13 and 21-15. Stern and

enhaupt won the remaining
single by defeating Barrett 21-9
and 21-13. In the doubles Hosier.
and Wilson downed Gorka and
Bauer 21-17 and 22-20.
Wednesday night's bill includ
ed a shut-out .and a forfeit. The
Coop went down in defeat to
Alpha Gamma Delta following
successive victories Monday and
Tuesday night. Slaugenhaupt

and again 13-21. Mink continued

she, won over Hosler 21-17, 12-21,
an 21-9. Davis Ind Shreiner

Gamma Phi Battles
To Basketball Finals;
Defeats Alpha Gam's
Gamma Phi Beta, showing the
same power exhibited in all pre
vious league games, continued its
winning streak by downing Al
pha Gamma Delta 29-19 and ad
vancing to the finals of intra
mural basketball. Though Gam
ma Phi led the entire way,
Alpha Gamma Delta still put up
a terrific battle.
The Alpha Gams ' were unable
. break away from the Gamma
Phi's guards who prevented close
shots from under the basket.
Kriner was parpcularly effective
in making long shots. The game
w'as well played with teamwork
showed by , members of both
teams.
Cheering
_sections from both
sororities were present to cheer
their.teams to victory.
Garretson, with 19 points, and
Wolfe, with 17, led Gamma Phi's
scoring while Kriner scored 10.
The final playoff for the intra
mural basketball crown will be
played Monday night between
Phi Beta and Leonides.

purpose. Fouling in the final
minutes of even; that hectic con
test was held down to a mini
mum.
HANDICAP '
But the consensus around the
country with basketball people
is that
.although the rule may
accomplish its purpose, it does
at the same time put an unfair
handicap on the team that goes
into the final . minutes •of play
trailing by a few points. What
the 'rule has in effect accomplish
ed, to the minds of a large per
centage of basketball people, is
cut the game to 38 minutes.
The team ahead by several
points going into the last five
minutes of the game, they con
tend, can afford to slow down the
game, knowing that the odds are
heavily weighted for the team
that is ahead when the two-min
ute rule comes into play.
The West Virginia Intercolle
giate Conference is the - latest
league to abandon the rule. The
coaches voted to adopt the re
gulation now in use by the Big
Ten and Southern Conferences.
Under this system, two free
throws are awarded an offensive
player when he is fouled in the
last two minutes. A foul against
a defensive man is still good , for
one charity toss, while a player
fouled in 'a scramble, will also
receive one free throw.
IVY LEAGUE
The Ivy League has decided to
operate without the rule. As of
last Saturday, the final two , min
utes of all Ivy League games
will be played under, the same
rules in effect the other 38 min
utes. The temper of the coaches
is indicated ; by the unanimous
approval the move received from
the member coaches.
New York City gave. up on the
rule almost a month ago'
the New York coaches decided
to play all games between metro
politan teams so that there will
be a jump ball at the offensive
foul circle after every foul shot
in the last two minutes. At the
same time, the New 'York rule
eliminated the waiving of foul
shots during any 'part 'of the
game.
Nat Holman, CCNY coach, in
sists that the rule will be wiped
from the books next year: In fact,
Holman ' says, the regulation
would be erased now had the
rules committee the steam to act.
Most basketball men echo a
hearty "Amen!"

Although no specific goal has
been set 'for the College, Dr. Har
nett expressed the hope that con
tributions to fight the dreaded
disease would reach $l5OO. Last
year the drive on campus netted
around $lOOO.
"In view of the fact that there
are a larger number' of students
on campus this year and that the
pond epidemics in 1949 were the
Worst in the recorded history of
the disease, we should be able to
raise $l5OO without setting a
definite goal."
Dr. Harnett explained that the
president of each dorm and fra
ternity would assist in the drive.
The hostesses of the women's
dorms are now conducting ram
