IFC checkers the power to
to wait at a fraternity's door
Chairman Richard Shillinger
moved for abolition of the ban
because, he said, it could not be
properly enforced.
The reversal of the council's
position at its last meeting came
after Louis Fryman, a board mem
ber, said the checkers were "in
no position to stop freshman
drinking forcibly" while the house
officer restriction was in effect.
The ruling, approved Oct. 29,
prohibited checkers from entering
a fraternity without notifying a
house officer. While it was in ef
fect, checkers waited for 1s long
as 30 minutes for house officers
to come to the doors, Fryman
said.
Amendment Passed 44•1
Under the council's new posi
tion. passed 44-1 as an amendment
to the regulation, the checkers
may be escorted to a fraternity's
party room by the pledge on 'door
duty, and there may see a house
officer and begin checking.
Shillinger's proposal to abolish
the drinking ban was buried un
der an avalanche of votes after
Fryman told the council it must
either abandon the code and al
low the University to step in, or
"try to put some teeth-in the law
we now have." .
Unanimous Recommendation
Shillinger said he acted on the
unanimous recommendation of
the Board of Control and that
he would rather have no law on
the books than an unenforceable
one.
The regulation restricting the
checkers was originally proposed
as a "courtesy" measure by Joseph
Hartnett as a result of the house
presidents' workshop.
Shillinger also discussed meth
ods of standardizing drinking. ban
enforcement procedures as dis
cussed by members of a commit
tee appointed at the last IFC meet
ing. The committee was appoint
ed to investigate enforcement.
The recommendations included:
