Rhodes was one of several witnesses to discuss life in Greek letter houses. Helen Hughes, Manhattan, Pi Beta Phi, told the court that about 5 per cent of the budget of her sorority went to social purposes; organized study halls and other educational features of chapter house life.
Rhodes placed about a similar figure in the category of 'bachelor'. He said he believed same percentage would cover almost all organizations on the campus.

Present Day Is Vital Time in Dance History
Shawn Traces Importance of Cultural Side of Terpsichore
"The present is the most vital time of dance history in the world," said Ted Shaw, famous exponent of the art to have studied at the Metropolitan Opera. The dance is the fundamental art of the human race, the first way in which the people learned to express their sense of beauty, and the many other arts, according to Mr. Shaw.
He traced the history of the art of dancing all through the ages. In the primitive state of civilization, he said the dance was in absolute unity with the religion of the people. It was the finest medium of spiritual expression.
This was true even in the primitives Christian church where the dance held a definite place. Many of our religious words of today evolved from dance terms of the church, and the word "choir" in its beginning meant a "religious ballet." From the time of St Paul the drummer, the church until finally it was kept alive only by arranging groups of dancers.
up to 25 or 30 years ago the dancer was in a low form esthetically and the ballet had descended to a stilted preform. The dancers would have granted it a place in art. With the advent of Indonez Dumun and Ruth St. Denis, the dance began to assume its place among the art form's creators in the revival of the art of dancing.
Costumes of 1900
Mr. Shawn smiled as he talked of the incongruous customs of the period of 1900. Mrs Duncan was the first to take the stand that music must be as beautiful as the compositions of Beethoven and Brahms in her interpretations. The composers were greatly shocked at this use of their art, but they failed to remember that the pieces of the great composers were so much a source of joy to the dances rhythm of the day.
Mr. Shawn started out in life to study for the Methodist ministry, but turned to dancing as a better means of exercise. He then began an important press in his dance: To make the dance a greater and more powerful medium of expression of self, to make it a creative work, and to bring the music and proper place in the world of dancing.
Miss St. Denis took the stand that the nude body was normal and healthy and the way to express beauty was to have the body unclothed.
