Helen Knox THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 27, 1951 ROLLINS SANDSPUR SEVEN PREVIEW €f Things In The rear To Come

RUSH PARTIES form an integral part of the fall campus scene. Hardly are new women settled in their dorms before contingents from Rollins' seven national sororities begin calling. Men must wait out a five week no-bid period prescribed by Interfraternity Council rules before pledging can get under way.

ONE OF THE FIRST social events of the Rollins year, the KA Open House sets off the social calendar with a bang. The Kappa Alpha Fraternity, ensconsed in its red brick mansion on Chase Avenue, the only privately owned fraternal home on the Tar campus, opens its doors to the Rollins Family with the first blush of October. Rollinsites swarm through the KA Kave, across the house lawns down to the boat dock across the Dinky Line. Faculty, house mothers, staffers jom with students in the fun.

^^/.

NO SOCIAL AGENDA is complete without a full quota of dances, ba hops, drags. Rollins sports its share. Starting with the Orientation Week Square Dance, evolving through costume balls, full dress formals, patio shindigs, and culminating with the annual Senior Dance in May, the high-stepping and light-footed have ample opportunity to exercise their talent for ballroom Terpsichore.

PREVIEW OF THE SPORTS future. In the absence of a varsity squad, intramural football looms large in the fall sports Picture. Fraternity teams will vie for the coveted intramural trophies. Football provides one of the best battles.

'WH.VT'S TH.VT? Climbing out the Cloverleaf fire escape!" No college year can fade into year­ book memories without an escapade or two to brighten the pages. Rollinsites have not lost the knack of devising them.

BUT ALL IS NOT PLAY. There is the more sober side of studie-, COACH U. T. BRADLEY'S hard-driving crew with most of the classes conferences.

THE ANNIE RUSSELL THEATRE by the end of the first week is a staple in the new student's diet. He's met there for orientation. Throughout the year he'll come back again. The magic of the foot­ lights will draw him back no matter which side he's on, to see or play.

,\ STUDENT BOOK, a student score, a student cast, in fact almost everything about it student. That's the Independent Women's annual musical for the benefit of a creative arts scholarship fund. Ingenuity is the next best thing to originality and the Indy Show usually sports a generous quantity of each. It's a far-reaching preview (who knows what may happen NEXT spring) but it's a fairly even money bet that the Seventh Annual will be as much fun as numbers one to six.

ROLLINS REINSTATED ON NON-QUOTA LIST Rollins College was reinstated in July as an approved institution of learning for the attendance of non­ quota immigrant students. President McKean explained that the restoration to the list approved by the U. S. Attorney General strengthens one of the most im­ portant traditions of the college. For generations Rollins has been I'Oted for the number and quality of students from other countries who seek training in special fields in which they are seeking a career and to give to them an introduction into life in the United States. Dean E. C. Hills, Professor of Spanish, began the tradition of foreign students at Rollins in 1898 when he inaugurated courses that enabled Cubans to continue their education here.

RANK OF CAPTAIN TO ALUM WALKER Promoted recently to the rank of Captain in the United States Air Force was Ernie A. Walker, currently assigned as the Special Services Officer with the 5010th Air Base Group at Eielson Air Force Base, Alaska. Captain Walker, son of Mr. and Mrs. E. F. Walker, 2943 Chapel Hill Road, Durham, N. C, is a 1941 graduate of Durham Central High School and received his B.A. I'egree from Rollins College in 1949. He is married to the former Miss Jesse Virginia Estes of Park Ave­ nue, Winter Park, Florida.
