Unimimes will be to serve
the state and maintain good
public relations with the
people let them know
that there is a University
Theater," explained Dr.
Stephen Cole, director of the
Theatre.
Pantomime, primarily a
twentieth century art form
performed by such masters
as Marcel Marceau of
France emphasizes body
movement without sound.
"It is an evocation of the
world of silence the ac
tor articulates the whole
world just by using his
body," Cole explained.
There will be twelve per
manent members of the Uni
mimes who will later train
their own replacements.
The members chosen after
tryouts are: Ric Marsh
Tom Doty, Terry Weymouth,
Bill Jamison, Skip Lundby,
Rickey S h i m p, Barbara
Bowman, Nan Burling, Kris
ti Rapp, Sandy Lovell, Roni
Meyer and Judy Lewis. Pat
Foreman will be assistant
director and standby mime.
. Mrs. Cole, who will be do
ing the initial training of
the group, formerly toured
with the Master, Mimes of
Iowa.
The Unimimes will have
a stock of prepared skits,
but will be able to improvise
their own shows by taking
a cue from the audience,
according to Cole.

Aiiimn
By DAVE BUNTAIN
Senior Staff Writer
Several fraternity and
sorority alumni see little
reason for switching to de
ferred rush, a random
sampling of chapter and
Panhellenic advisors indi
cates. These "advisors expressed
surprise that the Board of
Regents could be seriously
considering the possibility
of . changing the present
rush system.
All those contacted agreed
with Mrs. Palmer Johnson,
Alpha Xi Delta, that "We
feel we have a strong sys
tem as it is. We have not
been given any reason for
changing it."
WHAT'S WRONG
Don Ferguson, Phi Gam
ma Delta and former Inter
fraternity Council president, .
ber of alums and Interfra
ternity people and at no
time has anyone told us
what's wrong with the pres
ent system."
He scored the secrecy
surrounding the opposition
to early rush, singling out
G. Robert Ross and the Of
fice of Student Affairs.
"If Dean Ross is pushing
this he's generally the
person who oversees fra
ternity affairs he has
never expressed any rea
sons why there should be
a change, as far as I can
tell.
GREEKS BULLIED
"It's a shame that the
Dean has not involved the
IFC officers and advisors
in a series of discussions
on what's wrong with the
system as it stands," Fer
guson said. "The fraternity
system has been bullied into
its present situation." .
"I've gotten the impres
sion that the decision has
already been made to p o to
deferred rush," he saiu,
charging this is entirely un
realistic and clandestine.
Such a change can only be
motivated by somebody's
pipedream or prejudice or
bv dollars and cents."
MORE THAN FINANCIAL

pressed concern with the fi
n a n c l a l implications of
switching rush systems, but
all agreed with Ferguson
that "there are enough rea
sons other than dollars to
fight deferred rush."
Looking at the financial
aspect, Ross Hecht, Sigma
Phi Epsilon, pointed out
that the University ap
proached fraternities sev
eral years ago and asked '
them to "help out" in solv
ing the schools housing
problem.
At that time the Univer
sity had a backlog of stu
dents wishing to move onto
campus and no available
dormitory space, Hecht
said. The University asked
a number of houses to ex
pand their facilities by
building more housing
space.
The Sig Ep house, like a
number of others, began
work on a $135,000 addition,
he said, and now could
face the financial difficul
ties which deferred rush
would pose.
"I only wish the Univer
sity would develop a long
range plan and stick to
it." he said.
NOT IN SHAPE
Lou Roper, Phi Delta
Theta, said the changeover
to deferred rush would have
"terrible economic conse
quences" for the Greek sys
tem. "I don't think the sys
tem is in the financial shape
necessary to stand the
switch."
Pointing to other cam
puses that have attempted
such a change, Mrs. Rich
ard Jacobs, Gamma P h i
Beta, cited a letter from
her sorority's Ohio State
University chapter.
This chapter was forced
to move off-campus because
of the "impossibility of cop
ing with deferred rush," she
said.
Mrs. Kenneth McCaw, Pi
Beta Phi and immediate
past president of the Pan
hellenic advisory board,
added, "I have studied both
sides of the question and
find that on campuses
where deferred rushing is
held, the Greek system is
at a definite disadvantage."
. In addition to the finan
cial angle, "we are inter

Innes, Zeta Tau Alpha, aid.
Mrs. Innes pointed to a
report sent to Panhellenic
by the University of Michi
gan, which recently
switched back to early rush
from deferred rush. The re
port showed that freshman
women had- better scholar
ship with a fall rush sys
tem, she said.
Greek houses "give more
help and guidance than the
University could ever pro
vide." Frguson added.
"For every freshman you
showed me who was
harmed by his experiences
in a fraternity, I could show
you 20 who benefited from
their experiences."
"I have never heard them
talk about a deferred Eng
lish program," he- said.
"Yon might as well defer
college four or five years
if you want to protect the
freshman from being hurt."
"Freshmen should have
the freedom to decide
whether they want to move
into a fraternity as a fresh
man," Ferguson said. "Fra
ternities dont force people
to go through rush, but
they shouldn't be denied
that right, either."
Hecht said that freshmen
should have the oppor
tunity to "get into Univer
sity life" which the frater
nity provides. Such partici
