New Parietals Won't Govern All Weekends

The new liberalized parietal rules will not be in effect on home football weekends, it was learned over the weekend.

Instead, the Housemasters have decided to revert to the 8 p.m. permissions, except on the Princeton and Yale weekends, when special arrangements will probably be made.

Permissions on fall Saturdays, when there are no home football games, will probably to kept at 11 p.m.

Vold on a Dance

The masters also decided that the late Saturday permissions will be voided in a House when there is a dance in that House. All girls must be out of the rooms by the time the dance starts.

The new Saturday permissions went into effect for the first time this weekend, with reaction-except in Leverett House-very favorable.

Leveret residents found themselves unable to sign a girl in after 8 p.m. as well as having to sign in at 8 even if they had registered once during the afternoon. All other Houses allowed residents to sign in any time up to 11 p.m., and required only one sign in.

Hoadley Surprised

Leveret Housemaster Leigh Hoadley said last night that he had come out of the Housemasters' meeting with the impression that no sign the were allowed after 8 p.m., adding that he was surprised to find his House the only one to require this.

"But we'll go along with the others," he said, referring to sign ins on future Saturdays.

Undergraduates silenced criticism that they wouldn't use the new permissions, signing in heavily in all Houses. In Dunster alone 78 guests-three times the usual Saturday number-registered.

"It's much better and cheaper to be able to give informal parties in the room, into give informal parties in the room, instead of always having to go out on weekends," William H. Williamson '55 commented. Radcliffe also approved the new rules: "Girls like to vary the usual routine of movies and then eating some-where," Janet C. Cohen '55 said.
