Wednesday, august 20, 1975 daily nebraskan page 17 Greek houses get interior facelifts Activities planned to greet students return to UNL Many of the Greek houses at UNL have been refurbished and redecorated over the summer. Jayne Anderson, coordinator of Panhellenie and' the Interfraternity Council, said the houses were redecorated not only for fall occupancy, but to comply with stricter fire codes. . The redecorating and refurbishing will be done in most houses in time for rush week which begins today and runs through Saturday, she said. An estimated 600 women, about 200 more than last year, have signed up for rush, according to rush chairman Carir LeRossignoI. LeRossignol said an estimated 60 males have signed up for a mini-rush in the fraternities. Most fraternity rush parties were held during the summer, she said. Anderson said the 60 men represent Nebraskans who were away for the summer and unable to attend summer rush parties. LeRossignol and Anderson said the .increase in women rushees should mean an increase in pledging at the conclusion of the rush week parties. While most Greek houses were working to meet fire codes, the Delta Upsilon fraternity was refurbushing and repainting because of a July 20th fire. The fire caused an estimated 520,000-530,000 in damages to the fraternity, according to Roger Hirsch, a member of the Delta Upsilon Corporation, owners of the building. Hirsch said the 5 a.m. blaze was discovered by a Campus Police officer who noticed smoke pouring out of the chimney. There were no occupants in the house at the time of the blaze. The fire destroyed a couch, drapes, end tables and a portion of the piano, Hirsch said. The blaze also caused extensive smoke damage throughout the main level of the structure and four room door locks were broken by firemen checking for occupants,, he said. Hirsch said when firemen tried to extinguish the fire, heat, combined with water pressure, caused windows on the north side to shatter. The windows on the south side of the structure were cracked, he said. - Repainting and refurbishing is being completed, Hirsch said, and the house will be ready for fall occupancy. : Whether you are a new student or whether you have reached the point where your class schedule announces you as being former, this next week will be a variety of activities designed to welcome you back to UNL.
