University of California.
In Hi plea to Or. Arnold E,
Joyal and other members of ihe
Administration, the pre school
rush committee urged the switch
for the foUowlng reasons:
1. Both rusheea and rushers
would be able to devote more time
to their studies, beginning with
the first day of classes. „
2. Pledges would be able to
move into ihe sorority houses by
the first of the semester, making
them feel more a part of the
organisations  which  they Joined.
3. As more sororities move to
the new Oreek Row. additional ap¬
proved housing "would be available
for out of town coeds.
Rush began Saturday with aa
orientation assembly and non-
Invltatlonal open bouse parties.
