. m ADVISING STUDENTS, business instructor Cecil Walton offered help at registration while sitting under one of the multitude of signs. This inaccurately-spelled sign designates the table for freshmen and sophmores. BOOKSTORE was crowded dur¬ ing registration and days after¬ ward; clerks remained friendly, cooperative despite the ordeal. 25

Discordant songs and little cookies The sound of sorority rush is a happy sound, filled with loud, dis¬ cordant songs and the meaningless chatter of rush talk. Sorority of¬ ficers drill their members for several days on the name and back¬ ground of every girl going through rush, and they practice songs until past midnight. During the day they rush: smile, munch cookies, drink Cokes, giggle and try to remember names and home towns. The night before bids are turned in to the Dean of Women, the girls go into another meeting and worry about quotas and hurting feelings. When the new pledges come running to the house, the coeds hug and dance and cry, and then they go into the house to drink Cokes and sing more songs. STRAIN and fatigue of rush week on their faces. Kappas entertain new pledges with a breakfast of Cokes, cookies and evangelical sorority songs.
