Sorority rush was the week of ice-water, little cookies, Ipana smiles and Small talk. It was the week of mo- ments of disappointment mixed with happiness and extreme indecision. It was the week when rushees dressed from head to toe in new fall finery; while so- rority houses fairly rocked after each party with such comments as, Yall, we ' ve just got to get that girl! and She ' s from a lovely family—rush her! Fraternity rush was perhaps a little more dignified— with less Small Talk and more Man Talk. Sessions after rush parties were less frantic but long and brutal, with their Golden Boys and black balls. All thoughts of studies and books were put aside during this week as rushers compared rushees, and rushees compared frats. After bids were delivered and pledge pins acquired, we listlessly picked up our books and trudged slowly back to classes. How would you like to be Alice in Chi0-land ? Clean shirts and clean-shaven heads—both were much in evidence as rushees gathered for transporting to fret houses for soft drinks, cookies, and cigarettes in broken packages. Robert E. views the KA ' s solemnity.
