houseparty costume in its rushing pamphlet the phi gam representative pleaded the case on seven points the first was that the picture was taken after 10:00 p.m the time after which freshmen are allowed in the house the second point was that the charges against phi gam were filed by an unqualified group ac cording to the ifc constitution the charges must be filed by an in dividual house in this case the charges were filed by the ifc rushing committee third was that the charge of gaining an advantage over other fraternities by misrepresentation of the proper relationship between the
