Butler Sorority Turns Joe Frosh ’ Rotarian EVERY year at Butler University the sororities hold open house and introduce their freshmen to students from other fraternities. The custom has been practiced for years and allows all the new coeds and freshmen men to become acquainted. The usual practice is to line up the freshmen girls around the room with an upperclassman at the head of the line. The guest introduces himself to the upperclassman who in turn introduces him to the next in line. Then the second coed introduces him to the third girl, and so on down the line. This year at the Delta Delta Delta sorority open house, a group of brothers from the Delta Tau Delta fraternity paid their respects. “Among those present" was Joe Gremelspacher, an upperclassman. He introduced himself, “My name is Gremelspacher.” “Howdoyoudo, Mr. Gremelspacher, may I present Miss .” “And Mr. Grennendacker, this is Miss ,” said the next coed. I And so on down the line Until the last girl, "And Br. Bottlestoper, this is Miss .” Joe then resolved at the next open house to wear a big sign around his next 11*. a Hotanan ElvlnE hi, name.
