Congratulations and Condolences As rush neared a climax, Schola Cantorum arrived in the wee hours of the morning. Razor- back Hall opened its doors, and the singers slept to a concert by rushees. In the daylight, Schola bearded their bus, and traveled around the block to the library, where they were cheered, and the University took credit for it all. Then boys poured out of the Union, re¬ ceived one last hug and slap on already sore backsides. The sororities sang their girls in and the show was over. Best ending to the whole mess was for new fraternity man and sorority woman to walk hand in hand through the afternoon. Perhaps, they think, it was worth it. It is September, after the rain. This is the way the year begins, with rush. You can almost smell the wind, the leaves, and the rush. The white carnation is the flower of Chi Omega. So is Cecilia Swaim, who bccsts Psi of Chi with final word to this rushee.

The eternal University lives again as new Greeks join arms in love to walk over broken, cracked sidewalk past run-down student center. Despite threats from rush chairman, crowd presses stairs of Union so rushees must be thrown overhead. Despite warnings from Dean, rushees run down marble stairs which independents have greased. The University ' s real heroes, Schola Cantorum, arrived to glory after fered a welcoming concert of long speeches, cut short by a sudden concerts all over Europe. Not to be outdone, administration of- downpour of rain. Still smiling, a arateful Schola went home to bed. —Photo courtesy of Arkansas Democrat 31
