which to pick their pledge classes

cil.

only a few more would-be members
of Greek letter organizations expect-
ed to sign up during the remainder
of "Rush Week."

semester of residence here must
pledge on the day set by the Coun-
cil, Monday, October 13, or wait un-
til the second semester of the cur-
rent University year.
Rushing will hold the center of
the stage in the fraternity world un-
til 8:30 p.m., Wednesday, October
9, , when all fraternity-rushee con-
tacts will end. Preference slips will
be submitted by rushees and fratern-
ities to the Dean of Students' office
