SORORITIES INTEREST
DEANS AT CON VENTION~
Miss Richards Reports Unique Plan
In Force At University 01
Pittsburgh
ANNUAL BANQUET HELD
Among the outstanding features of
the annual convention of deans of !
women held Feb. 27 through . March
1 in Boston was the Pan-Hellenic
Congress which met there as well.
Miss Grace Richards, adviser to
women, visited the morning session
of the Congress Feb. 29 to find them
discussing such interests as sorority
standards, particularly with regard
to scholarship requirements, the fea-
sibility of pledges being assisted by
tutors rather than. upperefass wo-
men, and the recommendation that
any pledge who failed to become eli-
gible by the end, of the third quarter,
in a quarter system, should be auto-
matically dropped and not eligible to
repledging.f
Although the discussion was of in-
terest, no particular conclusions
were arrived at. "A more pertinent
contribution to Pan-Hellenic was
made at the joint session of National
Pan-Hellenic with the deans on
Thursday afternoon when Miss Helen
Rush, assistant to the dean of wo-
men, University of Pittsburg, spoke
on "Sororities in the Building of
University Spirit," Miss Richards
stated.
At Pittsburgh they realized that
they must create university spirit
and one effort was made in fostering
a closer relationship with the sorori-
lies. A committee was formed of
three faculty women, the dean of
women, and the assistant to the dean
who meet once a month with the
presidents of the sororities.
In the question or rushing all so-
rorities have agreed that no rushing
be done until the end of the first se-
mester and they have simplified rush-
ing rules to one: "Girls shall con-
duct themselves as if there were no
sororities on the campus." They also
have an interesting development in
the matter of penalties for breaking
that rule.
They do not impose restrictions;
they define tasks. For example, one
sorority which overstepped bounds
was required to present a paper on
the improvement of spirit in Pan-
Hellenic. This paper was read at
Pan-Hellenic meeting and led to such
discussion that a series of papers fol-
lowed.
Important among the social affairs
according to Miss Richards, was the
annual Columbia Teacheirs' College,;
dinner Wednesday, Feb. 29. Places
were laid for 1500. "Although the af-
fair has now grown beyond all
bounds, it has always been a great
inspirational treat," Miss Richards
remarked.
"Americans Hide Themselves But Are
Sympathetic," Says Colonel Lindsey'
"In no country is sincerity so quick
to be appreciated as in the United
States," said Col. Fred Lindsey, who
is at the Majestic theater this week, il-
lustrating the various methods of
u'sing the Australian stock whip as he
has learned to use it through years
of experience on his father's stock
ranch in Australia.
"You Americans have a strange
philosophy," he continued. "You all
have a 'line' that helps in hiding your
real individuality. You hide your-
selves in copying each other. You
dress alike; you talk of the same
thing's that every one does. And you
all do the same things. You seem to
be afraid to let anyone get under the
surface at the real 'you.' Yet under it
all you have, it seems to me, a keen
quick. sympathy and admiration for
sincerity that is equalled in no other
country."
The Olthe, athletic figure of the
colonel leaned forward as he con-
tinued. "This is an age when chiv-
alry should flourish," he said. "There
nrn cn. v . iv _ -, 'Ari c f i
The world isn't at all as it used to
be, don't you know?"
Australia, says Colonel Lindsey is
a peaceful country, as large as the
United States, but with approximately
5,000,000; people in it. Both the coun-
try itself and the climate are much
like California. "The people are
generous and hospitable," he said with
a smile, "and are 'inclined rather to
pity the rest of the world for lacking
the privilege of living in that portion
of the British empire called Australia.
Practically the whole of the country
is in ranch lands-'momba ranches'
we call them,-and the average ranch
covers territory 60 miles wide by 100
miles long. There's a romance about
the land and a picturesqueness that
I try to portray in the using of Aus-
tralia's national weapon, the stock
whip."
During the great war, Col. Lindsey
was colonel of a Scotch regiment; and
has seen service as well, in the South
African and Zulu wars. His appear-
ance on the stage, said Col. Lindsey,
was due to a wager with friends in
