them around the house.

"WHO KNOWS ANYTHING ABOUT THIS GUY?"-"Hash ses-
sions" were held throughout the rushing period at which actives
discussed each rushee, ultimately deciding whom to bid.

Wooden pins will be flying as
coed bowlers start flinging those
eight-pound balls down the bowl-
ing alleys of the Women's Athletic
Building.
Leading off with an organiza-
tional meeting at 4:30 p.m. to-
morrow, Club Manager Fairy Sa-
kai has a full schedule of events
planned.
With newly painted alleys and
a new pin setting rack, facilities
in the WAB are just waiting to be
used by University coeds.
New Bowling System
Miss Sakai has planned a new
system of bowling in which stu-
dents could bowl on the designated
days and times without signing up
for a special team. It would oper-
ate on a much more flexible basis
since iflany students are not able
to come at one special time each
week.
Each week coeds alternate set-
ting pins. In this way, it is pos-
sible for students to bowl without
charge.
Bowling slip-on shoes and balls
are furnished in the WAB alleys
for all participating.
After the organizational meet-
ing Miss Sakal will split the group
into a beginners and more advanc-
ed divisions.
Coeds in the beginners group
will be offered instruction by the
club advisor, Bette Prater, on ball
delivery, bowling steps, how to
hold the ball and any other phase
of the game in which the student'
wishes help.
For the more advanced coeds,
Miss Sakai mentioned that leagues
may be set up if desired by club

members, in order to provide more
competition among themselves.
"This is an excellent opportun-
ity for coeds to practice as a team
for the house and dormitory tour-
nament in the spring," Miss Sakai
continued.
This tournament, between inter-
house teams, will not be of the eli-
mination type. The house winner
will be determined by the total
number of pins the team knocks
down and a minimum number of
games will be set for each team
to play.

Proudly sporting shiny pledge
pins 545 men, newly affiliated with
the University's 43 fraternity
chapters, started a series of pledge
duties last week.
After a two week "rush" period,
actives are getting down to rou-
tine life again and pledges are on
the first lap towards earning their
Greek letters.
A record number of 1090 men
signed up at the mass pre-rush
registration, making this "the
greatest year for interest in fra-
ternities," according to Charles
Wier, IFC fraternity relations
chairman.
Visit Open. Houses
The first Sunday andeMonday of
rushing were set aside for open
houses. Men could visit any house
on campus and meet the members
on an informal basis.
Men attending the open houses
were given invitations to lun-
ches and smokers.
"The main thing we tried to
accomplish during the two weeks
was to meet rushees as many
times as possible and to get to
know them as well as we could,"
a fraternity house president said.
Sports and Scholarship
Men rushing also learned of
various house activities such as
I-M sports and scholarship stand-
ings during the first' week.
The ever essential "hash ses-
sions" were held throughout the
week, giving actives a chance to
discuss each rushee and speak
for or against him.

These nightly meetings, often
lasting well into the new day, also
served to bring rushees to the at-
tention of house members.
Rules Enforced by Presidents
Rushing rules were enforced by
a committee of house presidents.
Each fraternity appointed a
rushing counselor who completely
disaffiliated himself from his
house while advising rushees.
By the time the second week
rolled around, rushing began to
take on a more serious aspect as
fewer men were invited back to
lunches, dinners, and smokers.
Actives and Rushees Decide.
Actives were becoming fairly
sure of whom they wanted to
pledge and rushees began narrow-
ing down their selections to fewer
houses.
The beginning of the week saw

bids formally given out and Wed-
nesday, new pledges having offi-
cially signed IFC cards, fastened
pins to their lapels which desig-
nated their membership in the
"Greek letter societies."
They automatically became
members of junior IFC.
Two Hectic Weeks
Although the rushing technique
itself may seem fairly simple,
both rushees and actives term the
weeks "two of the most hectic in
the school year."
"There is a constant strain on
both the inside and outside," said
one fraternity member.
Coughs and colds -as well as
classroom yawns were evidence of
the loss of sleep suffered by ac-
tives as they sat through long
"hash sessions" trying to evaluate

and choose the men who were to
be their future "brothers."
Making an Impression
There were different problems
for the rushee. "You're always
wondering if you've said the right
thing or if you're making the
wrong impression when you meet
so many actives," one pledge de-
clared.
"And then there's the suspense
of waiting; waiting to see if you'll
be invited back to the smokers and
dinners; and then the waiting
when bidding time comes around,"
another added.
But all agree that these two
weeks, however hectic they may
have been, will soon be forgotten
as pledges and actives look for-
ward to the years of friendship
ahead.

begin their major in their fresh-
man year by taking three hours a
week of extra physical education.
But they do follow the program
set up for Literary College fresh-
men in selecting other courses.
Fundamental Skills
During their first semester,
freshmen take three hours a week
of fundamental skills which are
basic for a teacher of physical ed-
ucation. And during the second
semester, they participate in a
modern dance class three times
a week.
In addition to these two courses,
the majors take the two hours a
week of physical education which
is required of all freshmen by the
University.
In the literary college the phy-
sical education student takes sev-
eral biological science and social'
science courses. In addition, these
coeds must decide on a minor in
the field of education, and after
their first year must devote sev-
eral hours a weektosthat minor.
Practical Experience
During their years as upper-
classmen, the "phys ed" students
become skilled in various sports
and games, and have many
chances to work in summer camps
and recreation areas.
Not only must these women be

able to participate in these acti-
7ities, but they have to be able
to teach them to individuals of
various ages.
Therefore, in their junior and
senior years many professional
courses are required, and finally
during the senior year there are
opportunities for practice teach-
ing. The teaching is done in an
elementary school for one semes-
ter, and in a secondary school for
the other.
Openings in Variouis Fields
Women who have completed the
course in physical education find
openings in various fields. Most
majors take teaching jobs with a
starting salary of $3,500 or over,
though many enter schools of
physical therapy.
Others take professional posts
with various youth organizations
and some become interested in
camp and playground work.
The majority of Michigan "p.
e." grads are teaching in primary
and secondary schools from Cali-
foria to the East Coast.

We're sorry indeed to have disappointed so
many of you by being out of your sizes, but
we now have plenty of whites in every size from
0 to 16 (how long they'll last, of course, we
don't know). There are also charcoal greys,
charcoal browns, navies and reds, but not every
size in each color.
