2. Each club shall prohibit its undergraduate members and its members elect (meaning thereby persons notified of their election but not yet initiated) from canvassing any undergraduate before the opening of College in his Sophomore year.

3. Each club shall request its graduate members to consider it a point of honor not to canvass any undergraduate in any way before the opening of College in his Sophomore year.

Pledging.

4. No pledge or promise shall be accepted or taken from any undergraduate before Friday following the fourth Monday after the opening of College in his Sophomore year by any club or by any member thereof to the effect that he will join any club or that he will not join any other club and any such pledge or promise, whether originating in misunder standing or otherwise, shall not be binding upon such undergraduate or upon any of the said clubs agreeing hereto, but shall be regarded by everybody as null and void and contrary to the spirit of the agreement.

Date of Elections.

5. No club shall elect as a member any undergraduate before the fourth Monday after the opening of College in his Sophomore year, or before that time pledge or promise election, even by implication, to such undergraduate.
