War Throws
Free Rushing
Upon Houses
Spring rushing- has been af
fected by world affairs.
“Due to the present war sit
uation the inter-fraternity coun
cil decided this week to dispense
with the special rush-week-end ov
rush-week usually held spring
term,’’ said Porky Andrews,
I president of the IFC. Tuesday,
j i The council is leaving' rushing
i i up to the individual houses thin
| term. They may invite prospect*
\ down for a week-end if they wish,
■ j or make other plans for early;
| rushing.
t Previous Years
In previous years a week-end
has been designated jointly for
j rushing by all fraternities. UsU
| 1 ally a big week-end like that ol’
| the all-campus sing was chosen.
| This year it will be up to cacfe.
| individual house to make con
| tacts and arrangements.
"This is really not a drastio
I change,” Andrews finished.
Not for Ashes/
Says Bo us hey
Have you been puzzled by the
recent appearance of sand buck
jets in the corridors?
Well, they will be used for
smothering- incendiary bombs and
should be kept in good condition
just as any other piece of fire
fighting equipment. Prof. E. E.
Boushey, head of the campus
firemen, warns that, in order to
be effective, the sand must be
absolutely dry and free of com
bustible material. So please don't
drop cigarette butts, waste paper,
or anything else in the buckets.
It might be dangerous.
