PLEDGES ANNOUNCED BY DLL FRATERNITIES FAN HELLENIC RUSHING PASSES QUIETLY Annual Scramble Results in a Very Large Display of Spikes. “Oh, isn’t she a dear! I’m just crazy about her, and so are all our girls. I know she falls for our bunch, and if it wern’t for these old Pan-Hel lenic rules, we would have pledged her long ago.”—Excited Co-ed, 12 p. m., Friday, September 20. “I think she’s a perfect cat! Such nerve, to let us do all those nice things for her, and then turn us down! Really, I’m awfully glad we didn’t get her. She may do all right for that other bunch, but I always felt she wasn’t class enough for us.” —Same co-ed, discussing same young lady, 12 p. m., Saturday, September 21. The above scraps of conversa tion and others of like tenor were caught by the society editor on the campus within 24 hours. The open hunting season for “chicken” of the Freshman variety was at its height Friday and came to a close Saturday morning at 10 o’clock, which was the final hour for the acceptance of “bids” from na tional sororities by their rushees. All day Friday animated groups of co-eds, assembled in close formation, were seen about the campus, in the center of each a Freshman maiden. The groups were cosmopolitan, usual ly including members from almost every sorority, mingled together in the closest intimacy. Friday evening the fateful invita tions were sent out, and Postmaster Page, of Eugene, was deluged with dainty missives, enclosed in pink and blue envelopes, delicately scented and more delicately worded.

SEASON TICKET PLAN Continued from first page, plan was unannounced, little was known of it, and the five dollars as sessment was not in the budget of most girls, while Miss McClain thought that that amount was exces sive. Only one, Miss Dunham, was of the firm opinion that the purchase should be compulsory, others considering this too harsh with the retention of the non-transferable feature. That the project is creating inter est, is shown by the fact that it will be the subject for debate at an early | Eutaxian meeting. Parker Lucky Curve Fountain Pens ' 10 days free trial.
