Managing Editor Corrine Wignes, Executive Secretary Four Days vs. Four Years ANNOUNCEMENT in this morning’s Em erald of tlm pledge lists for fraternities and sororities does not contain the name of every person who went through rush week—■ some got left out of the bidding. This is nothing new, nothing unexpected, as far as rush weeks at the University go. Per haps it is small consolation for those who arc not wearing a pledge button or ribbon to know that the chief reason they were left out is because there simply wasn’t room in Greek houses for all. Housing facilities and (lie quota system have made it, impossible for all to attain their desire to wear a house’s emblem. As for the finality of tlm decisions which were made,The Emerald has long maintained that opportunity—the chance to do something on the campus—is not synonymous with a pledge button. We believe, as many Emerald editors have believed, that failure to pledge is not calamitous or filial. In the final analysis the University itself is the main attraction and its opportunities are not limited to those with a Greek emblem. The list of non-affilia^ed men and women who have carved a career for themselves with out being pushed by a house is very long. A glance at the list of men and women voted as the most outstanding by the senior honorary societies, Friars and Mortar Board, will reveal a high percentage of independents. The rushing setup is, at best, a poor criterion by which to judge a person’s cap abilities. The four days of highly artificial living that mark the period called rush week seem very insignificant as compared with the four years, yet to come, of actual work which most freshmen will put in at the University. The sun has not set—it’s just rising.—L. N. Added Value Plus an Early Start JOE Gurley, drive chairman, has not waited for registration to begin his campaign to put an athletic card in the hands of every student. The campaign began yesterday and will continue throughout registration. The main reason for the early start is the San Diego Marine football game here Friday night. Only about one-lialf of the students will register Friday and the other half Satur day. 'Without some opportunity to purchase a card before Friday night, many students will miss the game or pay regular admission prices. As for the value of 1 lie card, Mr. Gurley believes lie really lias something lo offer. A check of the events reveals that the nine dollar card has a total value of in foot ball, basketball, baseball, and other athletic events. This is the highest value ever offered in an athletic card here, Mr. Gurley says. With a lower price, more attractions, and an early start it looks as if the athletic card sale campaign is going places this year. ONCEOVER LIGHTLY By PAT TAYLOR AND SALLY MITCHELL A couple of years ago we started out to do the impossible to write a clean dirt column. Well, you know how impossible it is to do the impossible but anyhow and just the same; we’ll continue to give things the onceover - lightly. We had copious gobs of dafugal ty gleaning info fo’ this column every fraternity man and every sorority girl said, “We got the best—the cream—nuggets—gems —jools—prizes, each and every one.” Now what can you do with such flagrant lack of cooperation? BUT from where we sit, it looks like this is going to be a good year—yes yes, a good year. And as Charlie Baton, who is an evil old man, puts it: college is peachy. And some of the gems who have come to the U to go to peachy college are peachy Mary Lawson, new DG; Millie Kdwards, who is a dilly; Emma Vcrdurmen, Bi tty Kcimers, Chi O cutie; Betty Hunt, Pi I’hi; Janet Mary Straubel, Theta; Patty r Pearson, another Chi O; Yvonne Torglcr, Alpha O; Irene Francis and Dorothy Havens, KKGs; Mar garet Childs, ADri; Mary Shaw, Gamma I’hi; Mary Ellen Itunge, Tri Delt; and Betty Kathhun, an other Theta; Pat Longfellow, Alpha Phi; puff-puff and puff-puff Bar bara Kundell, Alpha Gam.
