GREENFIELD Hurricane Asst. News Editor Phi Sigma Delta and Tau Epsilon Phi were placed' on total social probation until the fall of 1962. This action was taken by the Dean of Men’s office Tuesday as a result of the unregistered party held over the Thanksgiving vaca-cation. Mr. Myers, counselor for fra ■ ternities, made this announcement after an investigation of the claims sent to the dean's office by the Surfcomber Hotel. The hotel management claimed that a party of 29 Phi Sigs and 30 TEPS had caused damages in the hotel amounting to $500. The Dean of Men's Office was notified of these damages the week following Thanksgiving, but took no action against the fraternities involved until a study could be made into the matter. The bill listed a number of items which were not directly assessable to the fraternities. A large group of high school students from the Miami area staying at the hotel over the vacation further complicated the situation. The study was concluded last Friday and the fraternities were informed of the action to be taken against them. “Both these fraternities will be on total probation for the balance of the 1961-1962 academic year. This means,,” explained Mr. Meyers, “no social affairs and no women permitted in the fraternity houses. There will also be no February rushing MRHA Continues Effort Billing of students and subsequent suspension from classes for damages to the men’s residence halls has recently come under the focus of MRHA officials and UM’s administration. Larry Kurland, MRHA president, put forth suggestions concerning this problem. They were that individuals be notified when articles were repaired or replaced and that a damage inspection system be devised whereby all students would be billed for damages before checking out at the end of the semester. Mr. Harry E. Meigs, Manager of Housing, replied that the ideas were good in theory but impractical in application. “The mass termination of apartment use at the end of semesters would require over 100 inspectors to cover approximately 3500 check-outs in about 4 days’ time,” he said. "We, of course, do not have this kind of personnel.” Kurland countered that since some universities do have dorm inspection services he still considers the plan workable. “I think the thirty-odd dorm advisors hired by UM would make grand dorm inspectors,” he said. “I also think that one’s financial obliga-tiofts should be cleared with the housing office before the student leaves UM in the spring, rather than being suspended from claries the following fall — five months after the damages had occured." Kurland also brought up the question concerning the billing of students who did not return to the University. “If an individual incurs damage to his apartment,” Mr. Meigs replied, “the bill is turned over to the main business office. AU we can do is block diplomas and transcripts until the bill is paid." or pledging.” The two fraternities may initiate fall pledges who make their grades. They can continue to participate in intramurals. but may not be in contention for the President's Cup. The fraternities and their alumni will he responsible for negotiating with the hotel for damages. “The conduct portrayed by these groups,” concluded Mr. Meyers, “appeared to be prejudicial to the good name of the University and not in keeping with the avowed purposes, principles and ideals set forth in the national constitution of both organizations.” In addition to the two fraternities, four students were put on disciplinary probation, several were reprimanded and several requested to negotiate alleged damage charges with the management of the Surf-comber Hotel. Ammendment Defines IFC Pep Position The controversial amendment to the Pep Club constitution stating that no one person in Pep Club may represent more than one organization has been passed unanimously. The amendment proposed by Stu Bloch, the Club's vice president, was passed in reaction to the fiery meeting of several weeks ago in which “Chink” Whitten, Pep Club advisor, walked out after a verbal battle concerning IFC representation.
