IFC Decision
An executive committee of this University's
Inter-Fraternity council will meet this afternoon
'to pass final. Judgment on those fraternities
charged with breaking or committing infractions
'"Xt IFC rules during the fall rush week.
Cy. Johnson, Glenn Eoscnqulst, Bob Hase
brooek, Arnle Stern, C. B. Schultz, C. J. Frank
furter and Harry Weaver will sit in Judgment
on the cases of the 14 fraternities charged with
the same offense and the two organizations fo
cused of committing other Infractions.
The IFC set up what might be considered a
police committee this year to keep close check on
all fraternities during rush week. The police com
mittee, to the Dally Nebraskan's knowledge, car
ried out their task with sincerity.
Fourteen fraternities have been charged with
giving the names of their pledges to a city news
paper in advance of the release date set by IFC.

The nature of rush week is certainly just what
the name implies. Anyone who doesnt believe it
should watch it sometime. I feel that I should
know, because I went through it. I felt pretty

The executive committee is right now in a

evidence petty in the face of known violations
that they have gathered, and whether or not
their consciences will permit them to find guilty
and to penalize those fraternities that are charged.
It is quite obvious, at least to this writer,
that a rush week fraternity or sorority cannot
be satisfactorily conducted without rules. The
Inter-Fraternity Council is the organization
legally equipped to rule and judge on rush
week. The rush week violations public or
private occurred this fall, as they have before,
because no one fraternity was willing t 'tllow
the rules "because nobody else is" and -eby

sons they desire for membership in their organ

forget about in the downstairs hall of the Student
Union, and I told him frankly that I was not
coming to his house. At this time I went upstairs
and filed dates for the day. At the first two dates
for the day I was offered pledge pins, but no one
tried to force anything on me.
That evening at a certain fraternity
some fellows invited me upstairs to a room. I was
told that I was not being hotboxed, but I was in
that room for two hours, and every kind of pres
sure was used to try to make me accept their
pledge pin. I spent that evening at a dance with
some fraternity men, all at their expense. Sunday
noon when I went to the Student Union to file
dates for the day, I met a friend of mine who was
a member of one of the fraternities which I had
decided not to visit He told me that he would
be plenty mad if I didn't drop over to his house,
so I agreed to go over' between the dinner and the
evening date. When I went to this house I was

as "Well don't you think we have a good house?"

"A Vanishing Youth Market" Is an initial cause
for the sales revolution now hitting the New York
retailing field.
Similar changes, "so profound
as to be in the nature of revo
lution," may be the reason for the
sad plight of retail business, in
the opinion of Mary Lewis, vice
president of J. R. McMullen Co.,
Inc. Listed second to the "Van
ishing Youth Market," Miss
Lewis cites the "impact of tele
vision" and the "conquest of
space" as factors effecting the
lag in New York sales.
(New York Federal Reserve figures have not
shown a single sales increase since the week
ended April 5.)
Early marriages have all but eliminated the
youth market in New York and surrounding terri
tory, according to Miss Lewis. In a recent letter
to Women's Wear Daily, she writes:
"The so called college girl used to wield a
mighty influence. She inspired fashions for
other college girls, and other girls not in college

She bought clothes freely. She, or her counter

"But when the college girl moved to the .col

seems she lost her fashion identity. Today the
magazines that used to devote whole issues to her
ideas adopt a more ambiguous label. The college
girl fashion wise no longer exists. Today the
girl between 18 and 23 is almost certainly mar-
ried. Marriages at 18, 19 and 20 are the rule, not

Since I have pledged another fraternity, the

do not speak to me on the campus, even if I try
to stop them and talk.
Since Rush Week, I have reviewed the rules
on the back of the rush cards and I find that I
have committed several offenses which could pre

semester.
$50 For Polio
On New Year's Day big men run so little men cynical about the enthusiasm students might have
may walk. They run in San Francisco at the an
nual Shrine East-West all-star football game to
earn money to go to the Shriners' polio hospital
where little men regain the use of their legs.
A variation of this theme has been used here
at the University of Nebraska by Tau Kappa
Zpsilon fraternity. It wasn't an original varia
tion but certainly a worthy one. The TKE's
contributed the money they ordinarily would
have spent on their Homecoming display to
polio relief. At the University of Kansas where
the local polio situation was also very bad the
sororities and several fraternities, gave up
Homecoming decorations and gave the money to
polio. The Nebraskan carried stories and an
editorial on this idea.
It was our feeling when we wrote the editor
ial about Homecoming versus polio, that the tra
dition wrapped up in house displays is important
and money could be collected without taking this
tradition away. However, The Nebraskan wishes
to congratulate the attitude of the TKE's. They
toward helDine in this critical period. But the
TKE's renewed our faith and The Nebraskan Is
sure that students will take time out of their busy
schedules to contribute a few hours to help the
helpless.
To return to the idea of giving up Home
coming displays for the polio fund, it must be
admitted that many problems still must be faced.
The All University Fund will open its annual
campaign very shortly. Therefore, the paper
cannot run a simultaneous fund drive for fear
that both might suffer. The Nebraskan does
not suggest that Homecoming displays be trans
ferred to polio money. The Nebraskan is not
going to sponsor a fund drive for polio money.
But, The Nebraskan will accept and forward any
money which students want to give toward this
worthy charity, including money originally in
tended for displays.
The Nebraskan believes in what AUF is trying
to accomplish and feels that more people would be

Besides congratulating them on giving up pos

like to say that the TKE's idea that contributing
is a privilege is refreshing.
Another campus organization has responded
to The Nebraskan's editorial. We said then
that we felt that if money could not be gathered,
perhaps workers could be recruited to help under-staffed
hospitals. In fact, The Nebraikan
called Lincoln General Hospital, talked with the
Director of Nurses and found that the need there

"with The Nebraskan's suggestion that students

middle name on a farm outside
Dublin in 1810. He was an earnest
ancestor being, among other
things, the first bookie for the
Irish Sweepstakes. In the Irish
tongue, "Strictly" means "Mc
Schnook."
Then, in 1855, my great uncle,
Jose Strictly Kushner. was the
second of the Kushner clan to re
ceive the mystic middle name,
Uncle Jose, born in a villa out
side Barcelona, became a famous
matador. He was the first Span
iard to successfully toss the bull
in Barcelona. In his native Span
ish, "Strictly" means "El Schmo."
The third Kushner to be so
magnlcally named was my
uncle, Pierre Strictly Kushner,
dashing, swashbuckling swords
man and originator of the
French pastry or tart. He was
horn in a small village outside
Paris and there worked up a
small but lucraMve business. In
French, "Strictly" means "Le
