Truck Labels Bother Law. Facetious names on public utility trucks, similar to the “Lizzie labels” of this country, are causing a protest in Manila, P. I. It is declared that “Here You Are” “Beautiful Maiden,” “Speedy” and similar names are not only silly, but they cause difficulty in the filing of cases against violators of the law, because the name of the truck {and not that of the owner appears in the charge. Government officials have been asked to stop the practice. i SCHOOLS TO OPEN | With the College of Liberal Arts now | .|in full swing after opening last week THE SUNDAY STAR, WASHINGTON, D.

With an enrollment which despite heightened entrance requirements more than 600 in advance of last year's, George Washington University opened its 108th year Thursday when classes were resumed in all its schools. Activities of the week centered in the orientation of the freshman. Opening assemblies were held at 12 and 5 o'clock on Wednesday when the new students were welcomed by Cloyd Heck Marvin, president. Provost Wilbur, Dean Anna L. Rose, Dean John R. Lapham and Dean Wil- liam C. Ruediger also addressed the as- semblies. The Panhallenic Association enter- tained at tea Friday in honor of the freshman girls, and the following after- noon 2 luncheon was given for them by the Sphinx and Hour Glass Honor Societies. ‘The mass meeting and smoker for freshmen held in the university gym- nasium Friday evening was largely at- tended. The speakers included Dr. Marvin, Provost Wilbur, Dean Doyle, Dean VanVleck, Dr. Borden, Coach Crum and Theodore Chapin, president of the sophomore class of Columbian College. Under the auspices of the Y. W. C. A. the little sister movement has begun and will continue through October 6. The object of the movement is the in- troduction of the freshman girls into college life, each freshman being given an upper classman as a “big sister” to see that she becomes acquainted with her fellow students and with her sur- roundings. The movement will end October 6 with the candle light service which is used by the student “¥” throughout the country, following which the sorority “rush” period will begin. Fraternities on the campus this year for the first time will observe rushing rules, which have been outlined by the interfraternity council. The new rules forbid any form of organized rushing for a period of three days before and seven days after the opening of school. The new rules give freshmen entering the university an opportunity to be- come acquainted with their new en- vironment ‘and the traditions of the school before entering upon social acti~ vities. ‘The first social meeting of the Law School factulty and student body will be held next Friday evening in the audi- ‘torium of Stockton Hall.
