C, TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER 22, 1936 SPECIAL MEEMG ; CALLED BY CLARK Ivey Train May Cause Rush Rule Change In an effort to prevent any violation of rushing rules which might arise from freshmen and fraternity upperclassmen trav eling together on Pete Trey's special train to the N. Y. U. game, Henry Clark, president of the Interfraternity. council, has called a joint meeting- of the Greek chapter heads and the members of the faculty commit tee on fraternities at 7 o'clock tonight in Graham Memorial to discuss possible changes in rush week plans. As the regulations governing the rushing of new men prohibit all except the most formal inter course between fraternity men and rushees, and as the proposed train to New York would neces sarily carry freshmen as well as upperclassmen, it seems likely that plans will be made to hold pledge day before the weekend of the N.

"Some break under the strain of worry and overwork. A few are annually dismissed by their fel low students for cheating or oth er forms of dishonor.

Yet the proudest youth cannot without being broken, break the constant laws of his own nature." Morality. Upholding the value of moral ity and denouncing the worth of "superficial sophistication," Dr. Graham asserted that the latest revelations of science and the oldest records of human experi- ence, as well as the intuitions of the inner man" acknowledge with reverence that "there are moral laws which men cannot violate without damages deeper than their bodies."
