Fraternity pledges must love
the actives or else they are get
ting them in a good mood to hurry
initiation . . . anyway the high
light of several fraternities seems
to center around the fact that the
pledges are giving chapter parties
this week-end . . . Phi Psi's are
withholding the theme of theirs,
but by the looks of the beards
the fellows are attempting, it
seems abvious that it will be
rugged and rare.
Milton Mack will be there with
Donna Wagner and Bill Ernst with
Dot Jones, Jack Wilson with Sally
Stuht, and Van Kessler with
Betty Ann Taylor . . . and then,
there is Carl Glen who will im
port home-town steady for the af
fair. Five O'Clock Shadows.
Really going in for beards in
a big way are the Sigma Nu's for
their Gold Rush party Saturday.
Babs Stenger will be there with
Ivan Haseck and Kathy Shaeker
with Harry Pagles . . . The Delt
and Kappa Sig pledges will be
hosts the same night to such peo
ple as Ann Reinhart and' Harry

Bernie Weyent, and Bob Galloway
