No longer do students snake- mce through State Street thea- es on the eve of Michigan foot- ,ll victories. No longer do Uni- rsity of Pennsylvanians hear the tout, "Rowbottom," which was e signal for huge, chaotic pre- %me demonstrations. * * * NOT TOO WELL known in .ese parts, Rowbottom is a Penn adition dating back to the late 00's. Rowbottom was a Penn stu- lent whose chief claim to fame vas a roommate addicted to fre- uent and regular benders. The wo lived in a large men's dorm ocated at the intersection of ive of Philadelphia's busiest treets. The boozy roommate, who has mained unnamed throughout e ages, would come staggering me in the wee hours, and, in ed of support, stand outside the m shouting, "Rowbottom, Row- ttomt Come and get me!" until the harried Rowbottom came and of every Rowbottom, as the cus- claimed him. tom came to be called. * * * AFTER NUMEROUS repetitions of the incident, the boys in the dorm lost patience with the rac- ket created by the lost lush, and the shout, "Rowbottom" became the signal for a rain of old shoes, water, books, and epithets on the poor fellow's already addled head. Enterprising cheer leaders soon discovered that a good way to rouse students for pre-game rallies, was to stand in front of the dorm and shout, "Rowbot- tom." At once students would rush to their windows ready to bombard Rowbottom's hapless roommate. The cheerleaders would take advantage of the students' bellig- erent mood, inveigle them from their studies, and fill the campus and vicinity with roaring, shouting Pennsylvanians. * * * BONFIRES LIT the scene of gaiety, and sometimes destructive pranks. Since all the trolleys in West Philadelphia pass through the five-way intersection in front of the largest men's dorm, trolley de-railing became an integral part Each year, with the advent- of the football season, came Rowbottoms, raucous and rough. Then, in 1942, University offi- cials put a stop to the practice. Returning students in 1946 staged the last big Rowbottom in an effort to renew traditions of pre-war days. Friday night be- fore the Penn-Army game, Penn students ran wild from 7:30 to 11 p.m. in what was one of the Row- bottomest Rowbottoms in Penn history. WEST PHILADELPHIA traffic was tied up for five hours. Fire trucks, come to put out the huge bonfires, were dismantled by souvenir-hunting students. Penn lost the game anyway, and the fire department had to issue a plea for students to re- turn equipment, And the University officially ended Rowbottom by threatening anyone participating with expul- sion. Job Mee tin Will BeHeld Annual registration for 1949 graduates with an eye to a job, will be held by the Bureau of Appoint- ments and Occupational Informa- tion Monday and Tuesday in Rackham Lecture Hall. February, June and August graduates interested in teaching will meet at 4:10 p.m. Monday, while those interested in a general position will meet at the same hour Tuesday. The Teaching Division of the Bureau is especially anxious to place students in that profession. They have been getting calls for teachers from both this country and abroad. Requests are also beginning to come in for this year's graduates in the general fields of occupa- tion. Daily-Bill Ohlinger. REALLY MOVING AOUND-Although many a car has made a left turn off State Street onto Packard, it's not very often that a nine room house, with garage trailing behind, has the oppor- tunity. One man in front directs the truck while telephone linemen make sure the roof clears the wires, and two students on a motorcycle have the distinction of overtaking a moving house.

INDIVIDUAL groups sponsoring each of the displaced persons will have to accept full legal respon- sibility for them, respectively. A place in the central organization will be reserved for a representa- tive from each of the sponsoring groups. Stuwents from various organi- zations who served on the planning committee will help to launch the new group at its or- ganizational meeting in a little over a week. Prof. Carlton Wells, of the English depart- ment, will serve as adviser for this central organization. * * * MISSISSIPPI STATE, Sud- duth's alma mater, was among the first schools to sponsor a displaced 4tudent. Sudduth has obtained scholarships and general aid for other of the students in such schools as Barnard, Bennington, Eastman Conservatory of Music, Dartmouth and Centenary College. Six displaced students were en- rolled in Dartmouth this fall through the sponsorship of tle) Undergraduate Council there. General maintenance of the stu- dents has been provided with the aid of fraternities and the local Chamber of Commerce.

The paper does not have a name yet, but a contest will be announced in the paper for that purpose. The paper will contain house news, athletic results and minutes of council meetings. Talented members of Prescott House provide entertainment immediately after dinner in the house lounge. Violinists, pianists and other ,musicians offer mu- sical programs during the relax- ation period before the students have to return to the old grind. what's Up in the Dorms ter: Don Roth, president; Bill Dresser, vice-president; Carleton Griffen, secretary and treasurer; Bob Elson, East Quad representa- tive; Herman Merte, social chair- man; Chuck Walli, athletic chair- man; and Pat Cousland and Ed Toton, freshman representatives. ** * ROOMMATE Elvira Terzaghi and neighbors Edith Altman, Mary Jane Greene and Joni, Barker, of Betsy Barbour House knew that Pat O'Connor was bright but they were practically "floored" when ,he returned from Fortnight with an award for highest scholastic standing in last year's junior class. Her four point average-she's a pre-med student-which she says was obtained by taking easy courses, still makes them all give deep curtseys when she enters a room.

Responsibility for hon- esty is entirely the student's, be- cause professors distribute quizz- es and examinations and leave the room, returning only to collect the completed examinations. DISHONESTY under the Honor System will be reported to the Student Honor Committee. An explanatory pamphlet written by Bruce Lockwood, President of the Engineering Council, has been read to all students of engineering so that the system may go into full ef- fect at once.
