RUTHLESS MANDATE
WORRIES CROOKED CO-EDS
Pledge Day Is Indefinitely Postponed
by Head of Inter-oororlty Conucll
on Accusation of Illegal
Rushing.
A ft or li' 111011I Iih of continuous mid
igorous "mulling," with dozens of
tired Hoioiiiy girls, resting on their
ojitb, bo to speak, the irridoscent bub1
bio of hopes and well laid plans burst
with the announcement that pledge
day was indefinitely postponed. MIbh
Conklln, who on her own authority is
sued this mandate, was the subject of
severe criticism when the girls learned
of her action But all that was minor
compared with what they had to un
dergo through the inter-sorority coun
cil when they wero told without a
mincing of words that they wore living
In doceit and wore found od on a fabric
of lies.
Bids will be sent to MIbb Conklin
Thursday noon, but she will not send
them out until somo indefinitely later
date.
Simultaneously with the announce
ment last week, the pipe of peaco was
hidden ami warfare renewed among
tho Greeks There was a variety of
work to be done and certain "niBhoes"
who were not yet spiked, must bo
spoken to privately and decorated with
a "Hands Off" sign Several amusing
incidents are told of, especially in one
easo where a prominent sorority girl
was known to call up a rival and re
quest her "as a matter of honor" to
let a certain freshman alone who had
already been dishonorably "spiked."
It is stated that there are at least
fivo fraternity jewelers in town who
are waiting to take orders from the
pledges to be They are naturally in
clined to be emphatic in their opinion
or rather their denunciation of uni
versity laws.
Tho co-eds also are harBh in their
criticism of the mandate, claiming that
after tho unusual financial burdens in
curred by Becond somoBtor pledging, It
is unfair to prolong tho unnecessary
expenditure, and that tho present do
lay is both uncalled for and unwarranted.
