Japanese dance. The dancers
use their eyes and shoulder and
hand movements to convey the
meaning of the dance, but use
no facial expressions. They keep
their knees bent at all times
while doing the dance.
According to Hisako, it takes
a long time to learn Kabuki danc

iIFC Adds
To Frosh
The Interfraternity Council last night voted to hold three
open houses for fraternities off campus instead of the two
planned originally.
Because of the large number of freshmen who participated.
in Sunday's open house program among the six on-campus
fraternities, the IFC felt that
freshmen could not visit all the;
fraternities under the presents
two open houses plan.
Under the new plan, the housesl
off campus will be split into!
three groups, two open houses tot
be held in November and one in
December. The IFC also voted'
to hold general "open houses"i
after the first round is completed.
Approximately 500 to 600
freshmen visited the fraterni
ties Sunday. Two of the parti
cipating fraternities reported
over 400 freshmen visited their
fraternities and the program
was rated a success by Ronald
Resh, IFC rushing chairman.
The recommendations of thel
IFC were referred to the rushing
committee, which will be respon-i
sible for establishing the dates,
for the open houses.
In other business, the IFC ap-'
proved a request by the Orienta-'
