Friends, fun and aching backs N K 2 X During rush week Anne Ford adds the hnal touches to Lindy Hill's costume alter hours of rehearsing for the Theta skit. Blue jeans and paint brushes are packed with high heels and white shirts in the suitcases of members of UU fraternities and sororities as they arrive in Norman for work week. Skit rehearsals, sewing of new costumes, scenery painting and long meetings keep coeds busy. Men clean, scrub and polish chapter houses. Lawns are mowed and song practices are scheduled each day. But in the evenings, work gives Way to informal parties. Telephones are busy round the clock. Budgets for rush week expenses are checked and rechecked. Rules for rush made by Panhcllcnic and Interfraternity Council are read one last time before rush begins. The weather is hot and fans are a scarce luxury item. Air conditioning in most houses is confined to the first floor. Sunny afternoons give a chance for sunbaths and trips to North Base for swimming. There are hurried emergency trips downtown and sometimes even to Okla- home City for supplies. Everyone eats at least a few meals at local drive-ins and hamburgers are the Hthingu as usual. Movies have a rush of business alter a quiet summer. Then, as quickly as it had come, work week ends and the real thing, rush week, begins. Applying the elbow grease, Frank Sweeney and Roy Stiegleder shine up the Beta house for the coming rush week.
