Open Rush Period Monday
BiHy Johns, Panhellenic president, Wednesday released in
formation on the open rush period for women’s houses, which
began Monday, October 7, and will be continuous until May 31.
At the present time there are 67 names on the official rush list.
Girls who wish to have their names added to the list must first
fill out a registration blank, available in the Dean of Women’s
A house wishing to rush a girl
will make the date by directly con
tacting the girl. Da.j;es may be for
a luncheon, dinner, coke date, show
or anything of a similar nature.
Panhellenic has set no restriction
as to the number of dates a girl may
have with any one house.
Pledge Procedure
To pledge a girl, the house sub
mits a bid to the dean of women
who personally contacts the girl. It
is then up to the girl to accept or
reject the bid. If a girl rejects a bid,
the house decides whether the girl
will be rebid for membership at a
later date, however, a place in the
house will not be held for the girl.
Rushees who turned their names
in before 11 Saturday morning may
pledge at any time, but girls who
turned their names in after open
rushing began must wait for two
weeks before pledging, although

they may be rushed during this pe

No Formal Rushing
There will be no formal rush pe
riod winter or spring terms, as not
all of the houses would be able to
rush because of the restricted quo
ta system. At the present time the
'following houses are not planning
to pledge girls to live in: Alpha
Omicron Pi, Apha Phi, Chi Omega,
Delta Delta Delta and Kappa Kap
pa Gamma. Delta Gamma and Al
pha Gamma Delta do not intend to
pledge town girls at present.
Adjustments in housing quotas
will be made each term. If a house
cannot pledge because the quota is
filled, but knows of a girl who will
not be living in the house the next
term, the quota may be raised by
petitioning Panhellenic.

Vets Forum
By JOHN JENSEN
and DALE HARLAN
As early as 1943 new veteran or
ganizations sprouted in profuse
fashion across the country. Col
leges, religious groups, business in
stitutions, wearers of the purple
heart, all appealed to certain quali
fied veterans to join and support
their particular new veteran club.
Now, 13 months after VJ Day,
only two new veteran organizations
have enlisted a membership which
lifts them above the rank and file
of the other groups.
The first is the American Veter
ans of World War II, (Amvets),
which claims an estimated 90,000
members. Membership figures can
not be verified and only those fig
ures released by the organization
heads are available. The Amvets are
a result of the consolidation of doz
ens of small groups which threw in
their hands with the Amvet team
m 1944 at the Kansas City conven
tion. This is believed to be, numeri
cally. the most powerful of the new
veterans organizations.
The second most powerful group
to organize during World War II
was the American Veterans Com
mittee, (AVC). With the slogan
“citizens first, veterans second,”
the delegates of the estimated 60,
000 members took a firm stand
against the veterans’ bonus at their
Des Moines meeting in June of this
year.
1UC XV V VUWJJVV1 —£
has some 40 members. Bach week
this group sponsors a forum featur
ing some speakers in accord with
their present theme “make every
veteran a voter.” If veterans have
further interest in this group they
Should contact Chairman Paul
Deutschmann through the main
journalism office or see Roy John
son, secretary of the chapter.
Some veteran groups with mem
bership qualification based on ra
cial and religious backgrounds in
clude the Catholic War Veterans
and the Jewish War Veterans of
the United States. Also the United
Negro and Allied Veterans of Amer
ica have formed in hopes to recruit
the nation’s nearly 1,000,000 Negro
veterans of World War II,
The two largest veteran organi
zations in the country, increasing
in size since the first World war, are
the American Legion and the Veter
ans of Foreign Wars. The first
speaks of a 2,500,000 membership
count, including 1,500,000 men and
women of World War II, and the
latter estimates its group at 1,600,
000. Again, such figures are not
verifiable except as received from
the particular organization.
