TUESDAY, JANUARY 15, 1952 Panhei Hears Rushing Plans The rushing code which -will govern formal sorority rushing beginning Feb. 23 was read and revisions proposed at a Panhellenic Council workshop, held Saturday., The code, a modification of the'plan used in the fall, was drawn up by Panhei rushipg • chairman, and the council rushing committee. . , : ; . At the next Panhei meeting to be held early second " semester both- the rushing cc and ihe proposed changes will be voted upon. Reject IFC Proposal Next semester upperclass wo men with 1.0 or better All-Col lege averages and; second sem.es-‘ ter freshmen with averages of l.£ or above may be rushed. Mari lyn Levitt, president, said in-1953 second ; semester freshmen with 1.0 -averages may be rushed. Last year no ' freshmen were ' eligible for rushing. In acting on a proposed plan revising ‘ the agreement under which,the Interfratemity Oput): cil and Panhellenic Council would sponsor the annual IFC-Panhel ball, the workshop defeated- a proposal that would have set up the IFC vice president as Chair man of a committee which would have consisted of two other IFC delegates and one Panhei repre sentative. In the past the dance was co-chaired, Miss Levitt said. She said that Panhei would make a counter-proposal in the near future. Open houses, coke dates, at homes, parties, and coffee hours constitute formal rushing. Any contacts between sorority mem bers and. rushees must be made through the Panhellenic post of fice which will handle registra tion and invitations. During this period conversation that is not prearranged and-is not about sororities is permitted, between actives and rushees according to the code. The rules call for a 24 hour strict silent period between the final coffee hour and ribboning during which the actives and rushees may not engage in any communications either directly or through a third party. May Have Chauffeurs In a straw vote, the workshop members favored using the bed room nearest the chapter room when the chapter room becomes over crowded during' open houses. Workshop members recommen ded that groups unable to get sufficient cars for coffee hours, which may be held in town, may apply to Panhel to be permitted to have men act as chauffeurs. This is the only time the rushing code permits men or cars to be used during rushing. A strict silent period shall be maintained during the two week period between the end of for mal rushing and the beginning of informal rushing which shall continue for the remainder of the year, according to the code. The workshop members' recom mended that no sorority be per Announcing The opening of Players NEW Schwab The 20 Named To Army, Navy Teams Twenty coed basketball play ers have been selected to play in ■ the Army-Navy tournament which begins tonight at 7 in White Half ■ Since no individual awards are given to outstanding players, the Women’s Recreation Association has set up the Army-Navy tourn ament as a means of giving rec ognition to them.

They train stu dents to “walk, not run” to proper exits at the wildly insistent clang of the fire alarm. Unfortunately it seems that the alarms are set to go off at times when they will cause the greatest discomfort and trouble to those participating in the drill. The alarm bell usually starts clang at 1:1:05 ori the nights that the majority of students have de cided to get to bed early. Before running out into the cold, windy night, one must do several things. Rules for proper drill procedure/ though explained quite thoroughly at the beginning of the semester, become more and rtiore confused as time passes. No one is quite sure as to whether the lights are to be left on or turned off; the doors, open or closed; the shades, up or down. A| least it’s clear that students are to be out of the building, not in it. ' Visually speaking, it. would be better if some of the fire drillers stayed inside. Many usually try to, and cluster around , the door like bees, in a hive/ blocking most of the passage and creating the proverbial bottleneck. This is done in an effort to'keep as warm as possible, and still take part in the drill by being at least half out of the building. It also of course necessitates pushing and shoving, like spectators leaving a football game, in order to crowd as many (Continued on page eight) ; : DORIS DAY "I'll See You In My Dreams" PLUS—B:3O ONLY SNEAK PREVUE OPEN at 6:20 , Presented in Cooperation i with Fine Arts -Department 1 "TITAN" I - Life of Michaelangelo Come-As-You-Are VAN HEFLIN PATRICIA NEAL "WEEKEND WITH FATHER" By MARY STARK ringing with a tinny and uneven Seniors to Meet All women graduating this month- will meet at 6:30 tonight in Grange lounge to hear in formation concerning commence ment.
