Broad smiles and heart burns... Walnutvpaneled walls and red velvet draperies of the Ad Lounge formed a warm setting for the Pan-l-lell's fall tea September ll, but other than the warm coffee, the affair was pretty chilly. The four 'sororities sent their loveliest envoys to impress the rushees, which put the rushees at a disadvantage since they had nothing but them- selves-as far as the photographer could tell. Pan-I-lell's social lions were at least superficially charming to each other, and the acting was convincing. Sorority girls managed to smile nicely while they scrutinized the new crop to see how they balanced their food. crossed their legs, and tossed off remarks about how much income tax their fathers paid. Rushees breathed easily as the party wore on, even if the atmos- phere was a little heavy. But the sorority representatives began to get a bit of edge to their banter as they mentally made their choices and sensed the opposition had the same preferences. During the two weeks of big parties and luncheons and coke dates that followed the tea. the tension was eased. And after the preferential dinners were given and the bids all sent, the sororities went their four ways, not to coerce again until Ianuary.
