think the revised drinking rules will accomplish on the subject of segregation a number of opinions were expressed a view given by fred minter president of chi phi was it wasn't really necessary to have rules calling for complete segregation the problem should have been taken care of on a house to house basis for individual problems require individual attention our house we think has facili ties to adequately care for our fellows and their dates another viewpoint was taken by john silinsh president of phi sigma kappa who said the segregation rules are a good assurance for a girl's parents as far as the face value goes when examined though they appear to be slightly ridiculous high school prom-goers have fewer restrictions than we do and we're college also if a girl conies up for any
