Pollock Urges Pledges
To Maintain High Ideals
0. Edward Pollock, assistant to the dean of men in charge at
fraternity affairs, urged 'l5 outstanding pledges last night to live up
to the high ideals of fraternity life.
Speaking at the Outstanding Pledge Banquet in the Hetzel
Union Building, Pollock traced the growth of the fraternity move
ment, pointing out that there are
over 3 million fraternity and so
rority men and women in the
United States today.
He also commented on the large
number of alumni, stating that
his own fraternity, Delta Upsilon,
had 30,000 living alumni alone.
"Why are all these people in
terested in fraternities?' he asked,
referring to the alumni.
Answering his own question,
Pollock replied it was because
they see something in fraterni
ties. "They are trying to live up
to those ideals which you find in
your own aims and purposes," he
said.
"These are all high• ideals and
essentially the same," Pollock
continued.
"These people are living up to
these ideals through selfless serv
ice," Pollock said.

Alleys
McCoy said the alleys would in
dude the most modern equipment
available, including automatic
pinsetters, electric foul line con
trols, and scoreboards above the
foul line which will reflect the
score on the players' score sheets.
The alleys will be used for phy
sical education classes, intramural
competition, and individual stu
dent use, according to McCoy.
Bowling Classes
McCoy explained that the al
leys will not eliminate the need
for conducting physical education
bowling classes in commercial es
tablishments in the borough, but
would permit more students to
take bowling in their required
physical education curriculum.
A nominal charge will be made
for use of the bowling alleys to
help alleviate the cost of construc
tion, McCoy said.
He said the money realized
from the operation of the . alleys
could also be put towards the
construction of additional recre
ational facilities.
9-Hole Putting Green
McCoy said that construction of
a nine-hole putting green will be
completed in the basement of the
Rec Hall addition by fall.
New tennis courts are being
planned for the area surrounding
the site of the new women's dorm
itories near the corner of College
avenue and Shortlidge road, Mc-
Coy said.
These courts will be constructed
as the dorms are built, he said.
A rifle range "which is one of
the most modern in the East" has
been completed and in use for 10
days in the basement of the Rec
reation Hall, McCoy said.
The rifle range is available for
the ROTC rifle teams and for phy
sical education classes. No charge
is made for ammunition used in
the course of the class instruc
tion, the dean said.
pledges, Pollock asked if they
will be able to say this 10, 15, or
20 years from now.
"If you can," he said, "you are
doing your job. If not I feel sorry
for you."
Pollock congratulated those
present on being chosen as out
standing pledges.
He called the pledge the "back
bone of the fraternity," saying it
is the outstanding pledge who
leads the fraternity on.
"Were you a wise choice," he
asked, replying that "we'll see in
two or three years."
