WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 27, 1933 "RUSHING" AND THE RULES Some of these stories are often exaggerated or entirely false, but, sad as it may seem, many of them are true. In the case of the fraternities it is not uncommon for men to be taken to the city or locked in a room before they have a chance to make up their own minds. Men are invariably put in "box boxes" and talked to so much as actually asked them in order to save their lives they give in. Often they know they would rather belong to another organization. About this time each year various stories come to light about how certain Greek letter houses disobeyed the "rushing" rules and resorted to unfair means in getting their new pledges. The sororites are under much stricter rules, and it is much harder for them to successfully break the rules. The most common regulation broken by the women is in getting the "rushee" a date with some boy who promises to rush for the sorority "biring" This is often the means of getting a pledge; most women entering college are very susceptible to anything a male says. On the other hand, most of the "rushes" who come on the Hill are intelligent enough to know what they want to do, and they are usually happy wherever they decide to remain. STUDENTS ARE ENTITLED TO THE WEST SIDE This year a new plan is being initiated at the University. Every student is compelled to purchase an activity book. Last year, before its adoption, the plan met with considerable opposition. It is now essential that the success of this activity plan be insured by the whole-hearted support of the students. This support certainly cannot be placed the students in the east stadium at football games with the afternoon sun shining directly into their eyes. In former years the students have been shown first consideration in the location of their seats in the stadium. Since the athletic contests should be primarily for the students and not for the staff and visitors the student seats must to be in the west stadium. BLISSFUL INDIFFERENCE "Ignorance is bliss" the age warn maxim says, and if this is true, the world as a whole is livable a lifelong life when it comes to nations informed about the welfare of nation apart from one one's self. Military conditions in Cuba are on the brink of serious action. The political crisis in Germany may leave its mark on every nation of the world. Tremendous consequences hang in the balance with the success or failure of the American NRA. But the world goes placidly on, following in the newspapers (when time permits in the restless hurry of the pursuit of happiness) the latest criminal case before the courts, the last sensational suicide, and the new society scandal. What will be the outcome of such blissful ignorance? That in which ignorance always results eventually—degeneration. Is that true of all the world which has recently been said of England—"England has found comfort and mistaken it for civilization"? If so, degeneration will not be long in revealing the difference which the blissfully ignorant world failed to discover between comfort and advancing civilization. Increasing numerous migrating flocks of black birds swoop down on the wooded brow of the Hill. SIGNS OF THE TIMES Tinges of yellow leaves edge the more sun-exposed sides of trees, while the gardeners are finding it harder to keep the campus grounds clean of falling leaves. Boisterous winds play havoc with all they can lift. Dawn comes over a mystic earth of ash, unveiling days of deep still skies of blue. A restlessness for the open roads that still beckon calls the student from his study table. It is autumn again. PUSHING AT THE PEDESTAL Word comes through the newspapers and the radio that the federal administration will soon announce a momentous bit of news in regard to inflation. It appears that the pack is already on the trail of the President, and someone else be done to satisfy their hooks. The criticism that has been cautionously brewing in some sections of the country now is breaking NRA and some other of the administration's favorite remedies. It was perhaps too much to expect that the chronic dissenters would stay quiet long enough for Mr. Roosevelt's ideas to have a fair chance; but whether or not the citizen is in sympathy with the President's policies, the desire for fair play should compel him to lend at least passive assistance to the program. The same people who cried down with Hoover and up with Roosevelt, now are tearing at their recent idol. They were successful in defeating Mr. Hoover, but they are matching wits with another man in the present incumbent. President Roosevelt knows hus man natura. He knows people— mob psychology—in other words, he is an仕象 politician. Therein lies his chance for success; if he wins through with the "new deal" it will be in spite of the people themselves.

The freshman loyalty record will be kept by Ruf Neks for use later on by campus organizations in pledging. coming off fine, the head of the SSRA crushes into the room and points a finger at the frost.

Let the class of 1937 choose its own policy and build their own organization. It's bad enough in these days for some of us to have to walk at all, but it's adding insult to injury to have to be constantly on guard against being run down by someone saunting along a campus by-path. —Indiana Daily Student.

The sophorahome class, having lost the brawl last year, will be out for blood this year. The freshmen, with nothing to lose, have everything to win.
