It seems that frater- nities have hazing troubles, too. Sparks of public indignation were set off by an incident at UCLA in which it was charged that a fra- ternity pledge was forced to kill a dog. That isnt all. The pledge not only had ! to kill the poor dog, he was forced to skin the animal, dress it, and then eat part of the carcass raw, ji As a result of this incident and similar ores, drastic measures have been taken. Interfraternity coun- cils at colleges and universities throughout the country have draf- ted resolutionsito atop cannibalism and other such practices; At LSU, the Mens Interfrater- nity Council passed an amendment to its constitution which says: “It shall be unlawful for any member of any fraternity. to engage in what is known as hazing,This amendment included seven penal- ties against the Childish pranksthat are compulsory to gain ad- mission into one of these organiza- tions.! I The Ifniveraity of Michigans IF- C outlawed] hazing on its campus, also. Their resolution requires that pledgeship.is to conduct pledge training and initiation in such a way as to pro- mote behavior consistent with good morals and good taste. The and g< offend .. iaJL j ii I ' : Ji j ild .{23 I hi ing ! fraternity, the : Beta Theta Pi chapter at UCLA had little to say about this occur- rence which aroused nationwide wrath. The case was dismissed from court for lack of, sufficient evidence and the whole thing denied by the members of the Beta Theta Pi. Perhaps it is well that this inci- dent took place because of the res- olutions arising from it i If more interfraternity councils formulate similar rules, and the fraternity members are made to live up to these rules, the standing of the fraternity system should take an upward swing. I, We hope such a carnivorous cus- tom never becomes vogue at A&M. It could easily spread like a prairie fire in Kansas.

Dog-Eating Stirs Frat WorldBy MARSHALL RICE

‘ From the other three corners of the nation, we have received bad reports about the fraternity system in colleges. It seems that frater­nities have hazing troubles, too.

Sparks of public indignation were set off by an incident at UCLA in which it was charged that a fra­ternity pledge was forced to kill a dog. That isn’t all. The pledge not only had ! to kill the poor dog, he was forced to skin the animal, dress it, and then eat part of the carcass raw, ji

As a result of this incident and similar ores, drastic measures have been taken. Interfraternity coun­cils at colleges and universities throughout the country have draf­ted resolutionsito atop cannibalism and other such practices;

At LSU, the Men’s Interfrater- nity Council passed an amendment to its constitution which says: “It shall be unlawful for any member of any fraternity. to engage in what is known as hazing,” This amendment included seven penal­ties against the ‘Childish pranks” that are compulsory to gain ad­mission into one of these organiza­tions.! I

The Ifniveraity of Michigan’s IF- C outlawed] hazing on its campus, also. Their resolution requires that

pledgeship.’ is to conduct pledge training and initiation in such a way as to pro­mote behavior consistent with good morals and good taste.

ing ! fraternity, the:

Beta Theta Pi chapter at UCLA had little to say about this occur­rence which aroused nationwide wrath. The case was dismissed from court for lack of, sufficient evidence and the whole thing denied by the members of the Beta Theta Pi.

Perhaps it is well that this inci­dent took place because of the res­olutions arising from it i If more interfraternity councils formulate similar rules, and the fraternity members are made to live up to these rules, the standing of the fraternity system should take an upward swing.I, We hope such a carnivorous cus­tom never becomes vogue at A&M. It could easily spread like a prairie fire in Kansas. We have so many dogs!
