Most of the changes were enacted last semester on a trial basis, according to council president Pete McCausland. Because of the favorable response, received last spring, rush will again be conducted under an "open system." This year registration for rush will be held at three locations. Men interested in joining a fraternity can register today, Tuesday and Wednesday from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. at Bates House and Men's Towers, as well as the Russell House. No fee will be charged to sign up for rush as has been in the past. Wednesday a mass meeting will be held at 6 p.m. on the Russell House patio to kick off the fall rush. Academic requirements for rush are more liberal this semester, McCausland pointed out. Required College Board scores have been lowered and freshmen will be judged on their class ranking and high school grades, as well. The new requirements were passed last semester by the council when it was poined out that "fraternities do no hurt a student's GPR. Ninety per cent of last semester's fraternity men had GPR's above the all men's ratio," McCausland said. He added that rushees will have an opportunity to visit the fraternity houses Wednesday, Thursday and Friday nights from 7 to 10. The only requirement is that each rushee visit all of the 16 fraternity houses during this period. After Friday night the rush procedure will be up to individual fraternities. The emphasis in most frater nities. McCausland predicted, will be on a personal basis rather than on a social basis. The open system will allow the fraternities an op portunity for rap sessions and informal gatherings with the prospective pledges, he said. dents! 4RDS ALE AlT X THEATERS ird is offered vlko wish to buy ant price.

"There will probably be a lot less emphasis on money spent on rush and the social aspects. Instead, the new system will be less formal and will allow the fraternities to get to know the rushees more per sonally." McCausland said that in the past rush had been "completely con trolled," but because of the fact that "people are changing, the fraternities are changing, too." "No longer on this campus is there a stereotype person representing the fraternity man. The fraternities will have more appeal to a variety of people." McCausland noted that an ad dition to the campus fraternities will be a black fraternity, which was unanimously accepted by the council last semester. Sororiti begin r Rush opened for Carolina's eight social sororities yesterday with a Coke party in the Campus Room at Capstone.

"Last year we began to try and relate more to the University. In the past, many fraternities had very little to do with the University. We are now trying to get together with everybody, regardless of whether they are a Greek and are taking down a lot of barriers." McCausland said that he thought that this move was winning more respect for fraternities. Traditional values, such as friendship, he noted are still considered important and their emphasis has not changed, rather "it is the structure of the fraternity system which has changed." Pledging will be held Oct. 3 from noon to 2 p.m. ies ush Any woman student who wishes to rush but has not yet signed up should see Miss Hines today. Miss Rene Braconnier is rush chairman for the Council. Summer (continued from Page 1) who is not mature enough to take a bath regularly and wear shoes to college classes is not deserving of the hardworking taxpayers' money being spent on him. 'We're doing these non conformist an injustice not to set down reasonable disciplinary rules." he added. Slater promises changes ARA Slater Services, the organization in charge of USC's dining facilities, has promised raster service this vear and prompt reaction to student's complaints. According to a Slater spokesman. many of the resident hall dining areas have been redesigned. Cash registers have been placed in accessible areas. A self-service device has been in stalled in the Gamecock D)ining Room to speed up service. Mr. Tom Wanket of the ARA Slater offrice said he knew of no food system which did not receive complaints at one time or another. "When I was in school." Mr. Wanket said. "the basic problem was either nobody would listen to our complaints or no one would do anything about them." He said Slater wants to hear any' valid complaints a student has and promises Slater will do its best to correct it. SFlea Market P'hoto e'npier:qofbece table mo)el.
