On becoming a Ku Ku: 35 more men (no fatalities had been reported at 10:30 a.m. today) became Ku Kus last night, and, although they aren't expected to display much pep for several days, are now official members of the University pep club. After seeing a little of the initiation ceremony, all that can be said is—the fellows must have really wanted to be Ku Kus bad.

Bill Alexander, Sig Alph became emphatically indisposed at the start when initiates were given successive doses of fish oil, tobacco juice, and alum water with onion juice chaser—in front of Fraser. Contrary to customary pledge-active relations, two members were assigned to hold the head of the ailing Alexander.
Jack Gosnell, Fhi Psi, felt pretty low about midnight when he got home and looked in the mirror. An application of fish oil and feathers had straightened his naturally curly blonde hair and he retired in hopeless despair — Atlas Maidenswoon days gone forever.
It was a big money making night for the city water department. Sorority girls spared no expense in
watering the initiates. Thereby, according to the boys, they displayed a commendably co-operative spirit. Harlan McDowell, in charge of the initiation, wishes particularly to thank the Gamma Phi's who got out on a third floor fire escape in the stiff breeze to empty their buckets.
The duck waddle up 14th street differed from other such events in previous years. Halfway up a number of boys claimed they were 4F because of elaborate physical difficulties and could go no farther.
Another diversion from customary ritual was the strike which the 35 initiates threw on the 10 actives after visiting the Pi Phi's. The initiates could see no future in running over to the Chi O house when they might just as well walk, and although 10 baseball bats came down harder and more often the actives could not hurry things up.
Fall out!-Civilian interpretation:
Students who walk past Battenfeld on their way to class have, on several occasions, been confronted with boys, books in hand, leaping out of a second story window, picking

Kappas Win Game In Volleyball Finals
Kappa Kappa Gamma defeated P. Beta Phi 27-22 last night in the first game of the volleyball finals. At 7:30 tonight the Kappa's will play the Theta's, the other organized winner, for the volleyball championship. The independent winner was IWW.
In the Kappa-Pi Phi game, Rosalie Wrightman and Frances Schloesser were high scorers for the Kappa's, and Joan Burch, Barbara Prier, and Catherine Foster scored most of the points for the Pi Phi's
themselves up from a heap on the ground, and progressing onward toward school. Charlie Harkness, Bill Pringle, Jack Ramsey, and Bob Witt claim this activity is not as senseless as it seems. By jumping instead of using the stairs, the front door, and the front walk, they save approximately 73 seconds—a material addition to any scholar's sleep.
