Headaches and Heartaches . . . That ' s Rush Week ... But Once It ' s Over Everybody ' s Happy It is so hard to understand why women who are free to do what they wish return for Rush Week. Too much should not be said against them, however, for next year this senior will, no doubt, scrap together her summer earnings and gravitate toward Lawrence at Rush Week time. Her aim might be the innocent one of merely wishing to see all the girls once more, but then again sister or cousin might be hiding under her protective wing. At times like that Rush Week really seems important to a Greek almost as important as when she was a hand-trembling, purse- clutching, glove-fingering rushee. But in a long night meeting, tired, disgusted, sleepy, she finds it so easy to forget the real joys of a sisterhood carefully selected so easy to want nothing but eight hours or a week or a month of sleep. But days later when she finds herself eating, sleeping, and living with a new group of pledges, she forgets the horror of 4 a.m. ses- sions. Then it is that the pin-wearer tells everybody gleefully (and this time means it), We really got ' em this year. We really got ' em.

OCTOBER 1940 23 YOO WHO! The Adventures of Junior in the Land of the Greeks by KEN LEWIS CHAPTER 1 1VTOW there was a certain man of Catarrh, in the land of Bismuth, and his name was Jehudi. And this man was of great wisdom, having read both the Book of Pinkham and the Catalog of Mail Orders during his span of sixty years. 2. And there was to Jehudi a wife and son and the name of this son was Jehudi, after the father, but most times called Junior. 3. And it came to pass that the son grew to the height of the parent and began to wheedle from him the family automobile, which he fetcheth in late and empty of liquid. Moreover he would lie abed even while the sun was high, and by these and many other ways did he plague the peace of the household. 4. Then the parent took counsel with the other parent and they did agree that it was time the son be sent forth to the state uni- versity in order that the calm be restored. 5. Thereupon did the young man depart in his new automobile of much camel-power, and he taketh with him radio, athletic sweater, and The Art of Bepartee, Ten Lessons Complete. CHAPTER 2 For two days and two nights did Jehudi follow the highway which led to the place of learning, then on the third morn he entered the city gates and checketh in at the hostelry. 2. But there were in the place spies of the houses of Sigma Nu and Phi Psi and Beta and ere he had removed his coat a host of stalwarts burst in upon him. And they said, Greetings, Jehudi, son of Jehudi, of the land of Bismuth. We are of the house of Beta and do bid thee friendly welcome. 3. And Jehudi was surprised for he heard not that the ways of the city were like this. Wherefore is it that ye know my name, sires? he asked. And the men called Beta said that they had long known of Jehudi, son of Jehudi. 4. Then came there down the hall the sound of footsteps and Jehudi thought to himself, Verily, a troop cometh, but it was only two Phi Psi ' s. 5. And they of Beta saith to the newcomers, Get thee hence and returneth later for we are first come. Thereupon the others gave reply by sigh but being of smaller number durst not tarry.
