Past fairs have never reached their potential, Cleveland says.

Each debate will last 45 minutes with 15-minute breaks between each session High fees discourage rushees Higher rush fees and a slug gish economy may be responsi ble for a decrease in rush par ticipants, fraternity and sorority officials say "We don't have an exact figure," says Steve Schrader, Interfraternity Council publica tions director, "but about 240 men rushed (visited the houses) and 150 pledged " Panhellenic Council Pres Jana McLellan says 354 women rushed and between 75 percent and 85 per cent pledged Both Greek councils say there were fewer rushees than last year According to McLellan, the state of the economy is the major factor why 45 fewer women rushed this fall. “It costs more to live in a sor ority house than in a dorm That fact may have discouraged some women," she says Schrader says the registra tion fee charged for fraternity rush may have discouraged some men “But as a result,” he says, “the men that do rush are more likely to pledge a house ' University fraternities and sororities attract between 2.600 and 2,800 students as active members, both residing in and out of houses Alpha Tau Omega and Pi Kappa Phi have no house; Pi Kappa Phi also did not seek new pledges in fall rush Although the pledge decides which house to join, the house decides which pledges to ac cept Houses generally require a pledge to maintain a 2.5 grade point average through the first term, pass initiation and pay the initiation fee, McLellan and Schrader say This is the second year of dry rush, which prohibits alcohol during rush activities. Both McLellan and Schrader say dry rush is a national trend allowing rushees to base their decision on true interest in the house "We don't want rushees choosing on the basis of which house parties the most," Schrader says gon daily m . emerald The Oregon Deity Emerald Is published Monday through Friday, except during exam week and vacations, by the Oregon Daily Emerald Publishing Co at the University ot Oregon Eugene, OR, 97403 The Emerald operates Independently ot the University with offices on the third floor ot the Erb Memorial Union and Is a member ot the Associated Press News and Editorial 8M-SS11 Display Advertising and Business M8-3712 Classified Advertising MMM3 Production 6M-4381 Circulation M6-S511 Editor • Harry E stave Managing Editor News Editor Assistant News Editor Editorial Page Editor Photo Editor Sport* Fditor Associate Sports Fditor Entertainment Editor Night Editor Associate Editors Higher Education Departments and Schools Student Government Features Politics Community General Start Advertising Manager Classified Advertising Production Manager Controller John Healy Marian Giaen Cort Fernald Joan Nyland Boh Baker Mike Riplinger Paul Darner Jonathan Siegie Debbie Hewlett Debbie Hewlett Sandy Johnstone Richard Burr Sean Meyers Michele Metassa David Brown Darlene Gore Sally Oljar Victoria Koch Jean Ownbey ■x Broasted Chicken - by the bucket or the piece • Party trays made to order • Fresh home-made pizza • Fresh bagels and pocket bread • San Francisco style sour dough bread • 31 varieties Imported and Domestic cheese • 35 varieties lunch meat and sausages • Full line salad bar • Hot food to go • Fresh sandwiches made daily Hot or co/d.
