SATURDAY, FEBRUARY: 9;' 1952 Spring Begins High' heels and party dresSes will. be diverted from fraternity parties as they are donned by - coeds during the week and a half of formal sorority rushing which begins Feb. 23. Rushing this semester Will be open to second semester freshman women with averages of 1.5 or better, and to upperclasswomen with AlKollege averages of 1.0 or e;-rules governing rushing procedure are determined by Pan hellenic Council, an organization made pp of two representatives froi z icli of the 19 sororities on cal - Apia'. All of the sororities at• they' college are chapters of na tional t organizations. • Wisest Choice It, is important for prospective rushees to enter rushing with an open mind, according to Mary Brewer, assistant to the dean of Women, and Panhellenic Council adviser. Miss Brewer emphasized that it is advisable for a prospec tive rushee to visit as many so rorities as possible, rather than de ciding beforehand on two or three sororities in which she may be interested. Miss Brewer also said that the wisest choice for a rushee to make is the sorority with whom she feels most at home. Prospective rushees often find the terms used during formal rushing somewhat c o n f usin g. Rushing itself is the term used to describe the process by which a sorority decides who first will be come pledges of that particular sorority. Coke Dates The formal pushing program opens with a series of open houses, at which times rushees visit the different sororities in order to be come acquainted with some of their members. No invitations are issued fbr open house. The next phase of rushing is coke dates. Sororities issue invi tations to rushees to visit the So rority suites in order to become better acquainted with the sor ority members. All invitations are i s's ue d through the Panhellenic post of fice,. which will be located during the coming rushing period in the lounge of Women's Building. So rorities turn in addressed invita tions at the post office, where sorority alumnae aid in sorting the invitations and placing them in envelopes. Each rushee then picks up her envelope at the post office. Rushing Parties After several days of coke dates, at homes are held. The at homes are similar to the open houses, except that invitations are issued for the former. By this time also the rushee has become • better acquainted with the sorority members. An invitation to an at , home, whether it is accepted or declined, C.-elita Alpha Chi Rho Officers of .Alpha Chi Rho are Donald Felker, president; William Hogg, ritual officer; and George Davis, chaplain. New pledges are Charles Emig, Temple Reynolds, John - Sherry, Dwight Tothero,• and Joseph Var holy. Sigma Phi Alpha • Sigma Phi Alpha recently edged Jon Barth and John aw.

Sororities then send out invitations to parties. Each soror ity holds the same party for two nights. Rushees• may attend the parties of two different sororities on succeeding nights, but may not attend both parties given by one sorority. Formal rush i n g closes with coffee hours, at which formal at tire is worn. Each rushee may attend no more than two coffee hours. Bidding and, Pledging After the coffee hours, rushees fill out cards on which they in dicate the first and second choice of the sororities they prefer to join. Sororities turn in their bid lists, or lists of the rushees they have chosen, and the rushees' cards are matched with the bid list. The rushee is given her first choice' if her name appears on the list submitted by the sorority of her first choice. After a sorority has received its list of acceptances, written bids are placed under the doors of the rooms Of the rushees who have accepted that sorority's bid. A member of the sorority then calls for the rushee, and ribbons of the sorority's colors are pinned on her. Ribboning, as it is called, identifies a coed as a prospective pledge of the sorority whose colors she wears. Formal pledg ing generally takes place within the next ten days. • A meeting of all. coeds in terested- in rushing' will be held at 6:30 p.m. Feb. 18 in Schwab Auditorium: Officers of Panhel lenic Council and the Panhellenic rush chairman will further ex plain rushing at that time, and will answer rushees' questions.
