To the beat of a quickened, wartime rhythm, two more sororities danced through their open houses this weekend. Gaumna Phi Beta's had theirs from 9 to 12 p.m. Friday night in the Kansas room, Memorial Union Building, with Johnnie Pope's band presiding. Chaperones included Mrs. Frank A. Griffith, Mrs. Maclure Butcher, and Mrs. Ralph Baldwin.
Two Have Open Houses---- Wartime Rhythm And Coats Of Blue At Dances
Pi Beta Phi's had theirs the following evening, Saturday, from 9 to 12 p.m. in the Memorial Union ballroom. Again Johnie Pope's band furnished the music. Mrs. J. H. Kreamer, Mrs. Charles D. Howe, Mrs. Ralph Baldwin, Mrs. Neal D. Sutherland, Mrs. C. A. Thomas, and Mrs. Dean Alt were chaperones.
Both sororties follow practice of inviting a group of naval trainees to the party in addition to the open invitation to men on the Hill. This is the first semester in the present emergency an altruistic plan such as that has been attempted.

It isn't twitterpation." It isn't syncopation. It's more nearly the "pixulation" of a few years back. Anyhow, we've seen it twice lately. People with idle hands sit in class and drum on the desk before them as if it were a piano or typewriter. Subconscious for them, it creates a margin of doubt for us. Are the movements a result of habit, or a yearning that has never been satisfied? Psychologists please answer.

--struggle taking place on the fringes of the dance floor—actives moving busily through the crowd, exerting their authority to the utmost to force pledges to dance with the house band. Great sociological stuff—conflict of the aesthetic with the fear of temporal power (the actives), resulting in schizophrenia, dementia praecox, and other mental disorders.
Clear Decks For Action; It's Open House Tonight
By now, most of you children have attended at least one of the student mass meetings occasionally referred to as open houses. Some of you more aggressive people may have fought your way to the dance floor, even have danced two or three measures before a bony hand seized your shoulder and muttered in sepulchral tones, "cut, please."
The writer sometimes suspects that Darwin promulgated his theory of survival of the fittest after attending an open house at Eton or Oxford, if those citadels of learning ever had open houses.
But don't anyone draw the conclusion that the writer is opposed to open houses, especially in wartime. Going over the obstacle course or joining a Commando unit is child's play compared to the rough and tumble training one can obtain in trying to finish out a dance with the houses cue.
In fact, reliable authority has it that when the physical examinations are given to newcomers at the University, an A rating signifies that the student is eligible to participate in varsity sports and attend open houses.
Now the sailors may be invited to the open houses. It will be interesting to say the least, to watch the men who have girls in every port to try to navigate to the dance floor. The signal corps men will probably be called in to direct the sailors to the scene of action.
Then there's the grim, hidden
Well, this article must come to a close abruptly. The author is going to an open house tonight.
