Greeks Given Ultimatums By Faculty
Dr. von KleinSmid Mediates in El Rodeo Picture Deadlock
Two ultimatums wjth a ‘take it or leave it” basis were | laid down to fraternities yesterday by the president’s office and the Faculty Board of Publications on the El Rodeo picture deadlock, announced Jim Roberts, editor of the yearbook.
The intervention of Dr. Ru- ! fus B. von KleinSmid climaxed two year’s strife between the fraternities and El Rodeo. In 1938 the panels were inserted after protracted discussion, while the El Rodeo of last year was released without the pictures.	.
The president’s offer was $45 for one page with the extra charge of 75 cents for each of the individual pictures. Previously the price had been $1.50 for each picture which was later reduced to $1.
TWO PAGES OFFERED A new note was introduced during a special meeting of the Faculty Board of Publications when an offer for a two-page spread was made, said Roberts. The same offer of $45 was quoted with $1 additional for each individual picture, he continued.
Previously, at a meeting of the combined fraternities, Roberts had made an offer allowing fraternities the choice of $45 for one page and $1 for each picture, or $45 for one page and a group picture doing away with the extra $1 fee. Neither offer was accepted, Roberts said. MAJORITY TO RULE Acceptance of either offer must be given the El Rodeo office by the interfraternity council on Tuesday. October 31, or the fraternity panels will not be placed in the yearbook, according to a statement released by the Faculty Board of Publications.
If either offer is accepted by the majority of fraternities the dissenting groups are required to abide by the result of the vote, it was also revealed in the statement. If it is decided that the one page panel will be used, the sororities will be required to do the same, it was further announced.
A higher sheen will be given this year’s pictures by the use of a new silver cloth drape effect, Roberts said.
