Greeks Wotk j As Pie Fraternities Redouble Efforts As End Of Rushing Period Draws Near With only about a week left before Pledge Day, October 8, fraternity rushing has become even more hectic. A succession of dances, smokers, picnics, picture shows, and just plain "dates" has left the average freshman in a daze. This year the practice of giving house dances with radios furnishing the music has been more popular than even before. So far no fraternity has given a very large dance. As usual many smokers have been given and many a freshman has reeled home under the effects of too potent a cigar. Several fraternities have given boating parties on Lake Murray and quite a few picnics have been held around Columbia. _tJ. b. o.
