Bullock said the exact date for legalized pledging will not be known until the University re leases fall semester grades to frat ernities. He also reminded fraternities, that under the new system they must register all men they pledge with the Fraternity Affairs Office. Complete rushing lists will be sent to fraternities early next se mester, he said. The lists will in clude the names of men who have been pledged by a fraternity, in addition to eligible freshmen. This way, he said, fraternities will know who has been pledged, and what men are still eligible for rushing.

SLely Asks Deletion All-University President Earl Seely asked Cabinet to delete from the report a recommenda tion requesting the holding of a referendum vote during the spring elections allowing students to select one football half-holi day. Under a plan now under consideration students would be allowed two floating half-holi days in the fall and one full holi day in the spring. The holidays would be determined by Cabinet. The recommendation was taken out of the report by Cabinet which decided to wait until the Council on Administration meets next week. Amendment Suggested Beidler also read the commit tee’s proposal to add an amend ment to the Elections code which would not permit any elected of ficer of a political party to run for any office in any other politi cal party for a period of not less than a year after his resignation. This request came after Wil liam Snyder, former Lion Party vice clique chairman, ran for the same post in the Campus Par ty last December. Interpretation Questioned Patricia Farrell, Women’s Rec reation Association president, and Harold Dean, head of the Cab inet Secretariat, said the amend ment could be interpreted by Elections Committee any way it pleased if an officer of a political party decided to start a party of his own. Since Cabinet felt this would possibly delegate too much pow er of decision to the committee, it deleted the amendment from the report, allowing Election Committee to rewrite the amend ment if it wished. Bahrenburg Reads Report The report on the Junior Prom, read by Robert Bahrenburg, jun ior class president, detailed the events of Junior Week and the prom. Bahrenburg said he thought the week was “very successful” and described the week’s pep rally as “one of the largest and best in several years.” He also said, “The Junior Prom was at tended by more than 1000 couples and people were turned away from the Chapel Service.” George Yingling, Engineering and Architecture Council presi dent, read a report on last Sep tember’s Orientation Week pro gram in the absence of Vernon Sones, Orientation committee chairman. $125 Allocation Approved Cabinet also allocated $125 to the Junior class for a Christmas party held for faculty children in December.

They were brought into court with each manacled between two FBI men Two other men are in custody, one serving a term in the Western Penitentiary at Pittsburgh, Pa., the other in a Massachusetts jail for gun-carrying. Two others are being sought. The FBI said 11 men were in volved in the holdup—seven were the masked gang wearing identi cal chauffeur's caps, Navy-type pea coats and gray trousers.

FRIDAY. JANUARY 13. 1956 AIM Tables Discussion On NISA The Association of Independent Men’s Board of Governors Wed nesday night voted to table dis cussion on the National Indepen dent Student Association until it could be determined which stu dents are interested in attending the NISA convention in the spring. AIM president Bruce Lieske brought up the subject when he named Thomas Smith and Wil liam Johnson as delegates to the spring convention. However, sev eral members of the board ques tioned this move on the grounds that since the two had not been questioned on the matter, it was possible they may not be interest ed in attending the convention. The board then agreed to delay naming the delegates until the Board members and others—who might be interested—could be questioned. The board also voted to have the Recreation Committee look into the possibilities of installing lights on the poles at the ice skat ing rink to light both the rink and the adjacent basketball courts. John Dennis, Pollock Council representative, who first raised the question, said the courts were heavily used, and that lights would greatly benefit the East Area recreation program. He said he had no idea of the cost of in stalling such lights. FBI men cannot accept such awards. The FBI had been close on the trail of the arrested men for a long time. All but one of the ar rested men were called before a U.S. grand jury here three years ago.in an inquiry which failed, however, to produce any indict ments.
