Mrs. H oward G. Forrest, Jr.

Named Woman of the Year

M RS. HowARD G. Forrest, Jr., has been named Peninsula Woman of the Year.

The Peninsula is composed of the cities of Newport News, Hampton, Williamsburg and York Co.

Among other outstanding services which merited her nomination by the Poquoson Club and final selection by the sponsoring organization, the Newport News Junior Woman's Club, Mrs. Forrest is chairman of the education department in her club­the same department to which the state award was made. All of this recognition within two months has left Mrs. Forrest somewhat flustered, but not at a loss for words when passing the honors around.

"I am so pleased that a small place like Poquoson and a small club is being recog­nized. We had a real active committee and the club, as a whole, supports a lot of local projects. Maybe others will be encouraged to work even harder for our community."

The works that won the awards were begun years ago.

"Our club started a $100 scholarship award four years ago," she explains. This year we formed the Poquoson Scholarship Board with representatives from other groqps in the community in addition to our woman's club. Now we're ready to award a scholarship of $250 through these combined efforts. We feel it's important because it is a community project.

"In a small community there's so much the individual can do," she continues. "I

grew up here and when I graduated in 1945 there were no awards of any kind ... as a product of the circumstances you real­ize the need."

Her family background could have had something to do with it, too. A sister, Mrs. W. H. Pace, is a teacher in Hampton. Two uncles are school principals. A grandfather was the first school board chairman in Poquoson. Her husband served a term on the school board there, and, she received her bachelor's degree from Madison in bus­iness education .

The scholarship program is, by no means, the limit of her activity. There is also the PTA for which she is a member of the board, the editor of the handbook for par­ents and students, and chairman of the by-laws committee; the Trinity Methodist Church, where she is board member, sec­retary of the commission on stewardship and finance, and secretary-treasurer of the Christian higher education campaign; the Peninsula Heart Association for which she is a board member; the Boy Scouts as merit badge counsellor and assistant to the cub master of Pack 51. She's aiso a teacher for the church nursery class and volunteer in­structor in a week-day Kindergarten class for 5-year-olds.

"Kindergarten accomplished two things," she adds, "My youngest son, Kenneth, 4*, could attend the classes while I worked. But it's also the most challenging of any of my projects." As she says, "It's so easy to have your hands in many things in a small community." "!,

NORFOLK ALUMNAE CHAPTER:

Reports on First Year

After Organization

T HE NoRFOLK Alumnae found it neces­sary to travel through falling snow and over slippery roads to attend our

January luncheon at the Ranch House, but we were certainly rewarded with a scrump­tious meal and delightful fellowship.

We are still alternating our monthly meetings between Saturday afternoon luncheons and Thursday night meetings. Thus, our February meeting was a night one and held at its regular location, the second floor of the Norfolk Federal Savings and Loan Building.

March found the Norfolk Alumnae scur­rying through a bleak rain to their lunch­eon meeting at the Commodore Maury Hotel. Here we received tickets to the pre­mier of the "Sound of Music," a Norfolk Panhellenic money-raising project, which incidentally brought in a profit of $500.

During April we attended a Virginia Electric and Power Company cooking dem­onstration where we learned numerous cooking hints and the latest concerning kitchen appliances. This also served as a money-making project since we received a money gift for having at least 20 people present.

The Norfolk Panhellenic Association held its spring luncheon in May at the Lafay-

4

ette Yacht and Country Club. We all felt extremely proud that A~T was so well represented.

At our last meeting we proudly installed two additional girls, Marjorie Creekmore and Martha Jean Hardin , after which the following officers were installed by our out­going President, Anna Margaret Rhodes:

President, Virginia Bendura Vice President, Marilyn West Recording Secretary, Judy Johnson Corresponding Secretary,

Sandra Drake Treasurer, Diane Forrest Editor, Sandra Little Chaplain, Barbara Floyd Historian, Marjorie Creekmore Panhellenic Representative,

Vicky Scott Alternate Panhellenic Representative,

Jean Shields ·

Our first year has been a rewarding ex­perience, with many new friendships formed and many delightful hours of fel­lowship . vVe now feel that our roots are planted and with such enthusiastic, hard­working officers, we are all looking for­ward to another successful year.-SJU~.rnRA LITTLE t

MANY OF you have become acquainted, this past year, with Jacqueline Hud­son in her capacity as National Alum­

nae Chairman. Many of you have enjoyed her monthly communications in the Central Office Bulletin and most of you have re­ceived some message from her in the an­nual Chapter newsletters. Few of you, however, realize that she has been a "be­hind the scenes" worker as a Central Office Assistant for several years. This really means doing whatever has to be done at whatever time it needs doing. We are fortunate that Jackie, at present a member of the Guidance Counseling Staff at Beaumont High School, has been active in many of her professional organizations as well as in Alpha Sigma Tau.

After graduating in second place from Lutheran High School Central, Jackie en­tered Harris Technical Teachers' College and pledged Pi Chapter of A~T. As an un­dergraduate member she was active in many campus areas and managed to serve as Cor­responding Secretary, President, Treasurer and Pledge Mother of Pi Collegiate Chap­ter.

Graduation led to the fulfillment of a

long-time desire to teach school. However, five and one-half years of teaching and graduate study brought her a Master's De­gree, a Graduate Certificate and a new job at Beaumont High School.

During this time, of course, she was, and is an active member of the St. Louis Alum­nae Chapter having served as Editor, Re­cording Secretary, Vice-President and Pres­ident.

In addition to her Alumnae Chairman­ship duties, Jackie continues to serve as Alumnae Adviser to Pi Chapter-and few chapters are so fortunate as to have such professional guidance and dedicated inter­est.

one of these statistics, however, do jus­tice to Jackie's bubbling personality, happy disposition and constant good nature. She is still our number one Central Office Assist­ant, lends a hand to anything that comes up-in fact volunteers the services of both her mother and father who have earned their honorary Life Membership in A~T through service.

In the next year, all of you, I hope, will feel the impact of her personality. She's truly a Top Tau of A~T. t.

The LIFE

of a FIELD SECRETARY

(Written by Paula Hunter of Nu Chap·te-1' of Kappa Delta Sorority; rep1·inted fmm the ANGELOS of Kappa Delta.)

M ANY sorority women across the land know what a field secretary is and does ... all so graciously trained.

This article is written for those of you who are uncertain as to what a field secretary is and what her duties are. Too, I feel I would like to share my experience of this particular national office, for I know many sorority women these days are looking for adventure and travel after graduation, as I was. If you are uncertain about what you want to do for a life's vocation, or if you would simply like to travel before starting a career of marriage, take this position and make personal decisions while you travel on an expense account! An experience like this also affords you the opportunity to de­cide where in this beautiful country you would like to live and more importantly, it helps you make limitless contacts for other jobs, if you are interested. Actually the op­portunities are as great as your interests.

The job in particular really has no "bad sides" to it like most jobs do. The role of a field secretary is to help or assist in sorority membership programs across the counh·y, she gives guidance in the improvement of chapter's officer training, she tries to sug­gest ways to strengthen pledge programs so chapters might initiate more pledges, she talks on ways to improve scholarship, and often makes the annual routine inspec­tion of a chapter. On occasion, she has the opportunity of helping in the installation of a new chapter.

ANCHOR

Probably the most wonderful part of this position as a fi eld secretary is that it provides for many the once-in-a-life-time chance to truly give of oneself and help others who really need a resource person. This is a terrific feeling to know you have helped someone, not to mention a whole chapter of young women who are your own sorority sisters! Frankly, I felt many times my position was much like serving in the Peace Corps; the only difference was I re­mained in the United States and I had all the luxuries of a princess.

Many people feel that the Peace Corps is the answer to their need to do their part in helping America's dream come true and keeping it strong by helping other countries that have much, much less than we; and I don't doubt that this is a very satisfying answer to this kind of need. But I do con­tend that there is much to be done in our own country, on our own college campuses, right here in America. This is where, for example, Communism finds its most fertile breeding ground. Our young people need help in combating it, for Communism does not live under the name of Communism, but under diversified-accepted names. We cannot fight the enemy until we see it, and too often we do not recognize the enemy when it comes knocking on our doors. I would say the average college student thinks a pro-Communistic person is a funny looking, bald-headed man with glasses and a cane, carrying an attache case. The truth is that the Communists choose comrades to come to college campuses who are gener­ally the handsome, ruddy looking young men or the attractive blue-eyed blonds;

7

The Life of a Field Secretary ...

these young people are the ones who talk so intellectually and boldly on world affairs, civil rights, or "democratic principles." Of­tentimes they even get away with de­nouncing our fraternity system on the ground of it being "undemocratic"! The fraternity system needs attractive, smart young people to counteract this kind of action on our college campuses; this is where our field secretaries can be of great service, by helping educate our sorority sisters. Young people seem to have a ten­dency to listen more to people who are closer to them in age than to older men or women, for they think the problems or situations are seen more nearly alike. Per­haps this is true. At any rate, here's a real opportunity for you, if you are interested.

The qualifications will vary from one

person to the next, but if you have served your chapter in some strong leadership position, and you know some of the work­ings of the ational Organization, you have a good beginning. Personal characteristics that would be helpful for this position would be to have patience, a sense of hu­mor, be a good listener, have integrity, a genuine interest in others, and ability to get along well with others. With some degree of these qualities and the two or three weeks of training you will receive, you will be ready to begin an exciting new position, a position of prestige and one of great responsibility.

I hope that this article finds someone so challenged that she will want to take up the torch and light the way to a greater and better sorority. ;\.

Report of Initiation of Alpha Xi Chapter, Mansfield State College, Mansfield, Pa. , May 2, 1965

THE INITIATION ceremony of Alpha Chi Chapte-r of Alpha Sigrna Tau took p·loce on Sunday moming, May 2, 1965, at 11 o'clock in a lounge in one of the campus buildings. Sally 'iVales was assisted by Flo·rence Sodus and Evelyn Grampp of the Buffalo Alum­nae, Sam M cllvaine, adviser of Zeta chap­tm·, and M m·ilyn Gottschall, President of Zeta, along with two other members of Zeta chapter, Nedra Bloom and Virginia Logan. Without the help of these loyal Alpha Sigma Taus the initiat-ion would have been impossible. W e definitely owe them a great deal of thanks. W e initiated 20 Col­legiates, one advise1·, Miss Ruth Billings, and two alumnae.

At 4:30p.m., the installation banquet was held at the Penn W ells Hotel in W ellsbo1'0, Pennsylvania. The guests were D1·. Fred Bryan, College Pmsident, and his wife; Thomas Costello, Dean of Students, and his wife; Miss Eleano·r Mayock, Dean of Wom­en; and the presidents of the two national fmtemities on. campus. Two Alpha Sigma Tau alumnae, who live in th e area and helped with the pledgi:ng of the second group which was initiated later in May, also attended the banquet.

Dr. Bryan gave a most i·nspi·ring speech. The followi·ng are the points which he st1·essed:

10

a. Democmcy must exist on campus.

b. The importance of personal and so­cial attmctiveness. Y ott cannot serve

·if you m·e unknown or ignored .

c. The imp01tance of being an ind-i­vidual yet w01·king successfully with a group·. Y ott must give to get.

d. Sp01'tsmanship and the golden mle which eventually encompass citizen­ship in all its fac ets.

e. Hon01·: Don't make excuses. Pmtect the honor of self (this is easy). Pro­tect the honm of the group (this is hm·d-example: the current problem at the Air F01·ce Academy).

f. The importance of the individual in a group and in society.

g. Everyone can contribute. The small­est contribution is imp01'tant and worth doing. Some of the greatest contributions are made by humble people who feel they are doing very little.

The enti:re visit was a most 1·ewm·ding ex­perience. And a memorable occasion for all of us who attended-a d1·eam carne t'I'Ue for Alpha Xi and a pleasure for us to welcome ou1· new sisters. The girls were so happy to be Alpha Sigma Taus and it was grat·ifying to give to them some personal feelings on the value of membership in a national so­rority . The true meaning of Alpha Siama Tau was exemplified by th e faithful mem­bers who assisted in th e initiation and at the banquet. ~

Alpha Xi Chapter

reports

ALPHA Xr CHAPTER of Alpha Sigma Tau is the first social sorority to be founded on the Mansfield State College Campus. The goal of having a sorority on campus was set four years ago by a group of girls called the Social Sorority Committee. The committee was headed by Miss Janet Boekenkamp and was advised by Mrs. Dorothy Millward and Miss Ruth Billings. After contacting several national organizations, the group decided to apply for colonization into Alpha Sigma Tau. Mrs. Stein, the president of district II at that time, came to MSC in order to inter­view the girls making application. After her visit, the girls were sure that they had found the ideal sorority for Mansfield.

As there had never been a sorority on campus, the administration had not formu­lated an official policy concerning organiza­tions of this type. Until the situation could be studied further, a temporary ban was placed on all fraternities and sororities. Without abandoning their original goal of sorority status, the committee reorganized themselves into a social service club called the "Collegiennes." The Collegiennes be­came well-known on campus due to their serving at President's teas, as usherettes, and in whatever capacity they were needed. While working under the title of Collegien­nes, the girls won first prize in the Campus Grecian Sing. Another project of the group was to enter a float in the Homecoming Parade. Pledging was a regular activity of the Collegiennes in order to increase their number.

In November, 1964, the college adminis­tration lifted the ban and encouraged the formation of fraternities and sororities. At this time, the Collegiennes submitted their application to Alpha Sigma Tau. Because the group had existed as a service organiza­tion prior to submitting their application, only eight weeks of pledging was required by the national organization before achiev-

ing chapter status. On May 2, 1965, the Alpha Xi Chapter of Alpha Sigma Tau be­came a reality. Twenty-one girls were in­ducted along with their advisor, 1iss Bill­ings, and one alumna, Miss Janet Boeken­kamp, the original founder of the Social Sorority Committee.

rushees travel

"around the world."

THE ALPHAS opened spring semester with a New Student Days program for students new to Eastern's campus. February found the girls at "Peek at Greek," a presentation of campus sororities to prospective rushees.

Alpha's rush theme was "Around the World With A~T." The first form al tea had a ship boarding theme with a preview of countries to be visited. The next par ties were visits to the vmious coun tries. The theme of each party was carried out in cos­tumes, name-tags and decorations. Displays showing various phases of sorori ty life were also presented. The final informal party was a Hawaiian Luau where the girls wore Hawaiian costumes and straw hats. The favors consisted of Hawaiian orchids :Boat­ing in rose bowls with A~T lettered on the outside.

Tine new pledges were asked to join the sisterhood of Alpha Sigma Tau. They were Kathie Andrews, Grace Beebe, Carol Clark, Carol Ann Gillis, Lynn Hagen, Cheryl In­dorf, Betty Marks, Patti Sokol and Eileen Valentine.

A Candlelight Ball was held at Pom­peii's in Dearborn on March 27. Favors were combination bookend lamps with the

14

~T insignia on them. Mary Carevic was hostess for a pre-party. Punch and hor d'oeuvres were served. A post-party was held at Peggy Campbell's home.

Spring Week found Eastern's Greeks hard at work. The climax of the week was a Greek Sing entitled "Greeks on Broadway." The A~Ts performed "The Great Greek Wagon" and "Climb Every Mountain" un­der the able direction of Music Chairman

ancy Overly. Piano accompaniment was provided by Carol Ann Gillis.

Mrs. Cross, our District President, visited the Chapter this spring. Her recommen­dations, suggestions and encomagement were well received by all the girls.

A Parents' Potluck was held on May 15. The spring pledge class entertained wHh their ongs to the tunes of "More" and "Super ca li f r a d u lis ticexpialidocous" from "Ma1y Poppins." They also gave a presen­tation of what Alpha Sigma Tau means to them. This semester's pledge project was wooden candleholders in the shap of th A~T badge, which were presented complete with gold candles. The Best Pledge award was given to Patti Sokol.

May 22 and 23 found the Alpha at Clear Lake Camp for Sorority Weekend. Canoe­ing, softball, volleyball and, of course, cook­ing kept everyone busy.

ew officers for the fall were chosen. They are President, Bonnie Malik; Vice­Presiden t, Karen Newman; Recording Sec­retary, Barbara Peploski; Corresponding Secretary, Sherry Baker; and Treasmer, Linda Jean Beasley. Congratulations girls!

The scholarship pin was presented to Beth Hartley. Beth is the jtmior with the highest scholastic average. The pin wa previously worn by Cookie Collins who made the presentation. fore scholastic· honors were given to Bonnie Malik who was presented with the sorority's scholar­ship. Congratulations to Beth and Bonnie.

AFTER A successful fall semester , Betas re­turned for an even more promising spring. Soon we were busy planning pledge par­ties, which were amply rewarded with 22 pledges. They are Martha Ammennan, Jeanne Atkinson, Kathy Benton, Gail Board­man, Marilyn Chapman, Denyce Duncan, Kathy Forgash, Chris Golting, Bettie Ho­warth, Lynne Krebs, Beverly McFarland Mary Prothro, Sandy Richmond, 1ary Ann Russell, Sandy Schmidt, Judy Skindizer, Judy Smith, Shirley Stoel, Georgann Strez­lecki, Pat Tate, Margaret Trible, Kay West­raphe and ancy Wood. As pledges they were very active, making up new songs and working for the Sorority.

Our Spring date party was planned around movie themes with many coming in wild costumes from famous pictures. The

15

Betas were also hostesses to Mrs. Cross, our District President.

For the first time on campus all sororities joined together in planning a Panhellenic Ball to introduce the pledges from all so­rorities. It was a beautiful occasion and we Betas were proud of our pledges.

Our social service project was visiting a local rest home. We spent many enjoyable hours talking with the p atients, running er­rands and planning an Easter party for them. Easter vacation was a welcome rest; however, the rest was short for "Greek Week" was the next event. All sororities and fraternities participated in bowling, billiards, swimming, track and relay events . We won the "Walkathon."

House Party was a weekend we will not soon forget. At Songer's Resort on Hough­ton Lake we joined together for singing, boating, swimming and skits. During the year we sponsored a faculty tea and had several mixer-desserts with the campus fra­ternities. Among these was our "Friendly

eighbor Party" with the men of Sigma Phi Epsilon. Our house mother, Mrs. Spradlin , was chosen as their "fri endly neighbor."

Senior farewell was a sad time but we are proud of our seven sisters who gradu­ated: Dorothy Carauthers, Joni La Mourie, Esther Moreno, Jan Panwells, Peg Potrin , Carolyn Riefe and Leah Saunders.

Also during the year Betas had many candlelights for girls lavaliered, pinned or engaged. Several of our sisters were frater­nity sweethearts. Peg Potwin was Sigma Phi Epsilon Sweetheart ; ancy L Red­mond, Tau Kappa Epsilon Svvee theart ; Sherry Cogley, Theta Chi Sweetheart; Georgann Strezlecki , Delta Sigma Phi Dream Girl. Leah Saunders, pas t President, was nominated for Greek Woman of the Year and also honored with a Chippewa Award.

Elections were held and new officers named. They are Leigh Fugate, President;

ancy Redmond, Vice-President; Karen Christianson, Recording Secretary; Sherry Cogley, Treasurer; Amy Droper, Corres­ponding Secretary ; Marilyn Mallek, Chap­lain ; Ginny H eusted, Historian, and Leslie Thomas, Custodian.

Near the close of the year we held a fare­well party for our house mother, Mrs. Spradlin, and presented her with an en­graved rose bud vase. Our new house moth­er is Mrs. Howard.

As the semester finally came to an end we were busy studying for finals. Through the summer and this semester we looked back on an enjoyable and successful se­mester.-SUE JACKSO

happiness is the

spring semester.

DELTA CHAPTER had a busy spring session, which began wi th parties and fun in rush­ing. A crepe paper dog house and Peanuts' characters in Tau green and gold carrying signs announcing their h appiness decorated the walls; a Tau blazer or gold hat, set the scene for our Happiness Is .. . Party. Both sisters and rushees came dressed as their own special happiness. Every thing from Peanuts' own lemonade stand to Lucy's "Psychiatric Help 5¢," as well as the dog bone cookies and security blankets (green with gold trim, naturally), helped make this one of the most successful rush parties of the season.

Several brothers of Sigma Tau Gamma Fraternity served as waiters for "Ro e Be­come You," our formal rush party. The favors were green and gold nighties wi th huge pockets to hold dream notes.

We were proud to add 13 lovely pledges: Dottie Bernarding, Marilyn Crawford, · Ginny Hoffman, Mary Ann Hoyson, Lyn Kudes, Joy Leake, ina Oliver, Marcia Rowles, Barbara Stump, Arlene Tine and Joyce Walsh.

One of the highlights of the semester wa our slumber party in the D elta Sigma Phi Fraternity house. The pledges ent rtained sisters and dates at "Carousel," th ir pi dgc dance. The whole dance floor en tered

A r H R

around a crepe paper carousel holding col­orful stuffed paper animals. "Tau's Present" was the skit which kept all of us in stitches. Academy Awards were presented to "Mar­riage 1-tau-ian Style," "Tau-m Jones," "Sex and the Single Tau" and "Emerald Green and Gold Finger."

As spring came we were deeply involved in Swing Out, Indiana's Spring Weekend Festival. Opening the activities was Greek Sing in which we sang "Sentimental Jour­ney" and "Above the Crowd" by Michele Snyder, one of Delta's sisters. Our boo th for the festivities the next day was a Casino complete with accessories. The climax of the weekend was our Mother's D ay Tea and Ribbon Ceremony .

This year we participated in the Indiana Community Cancer Drive. We Deltas were honored to be chosen by the Women's Group in Indiana to be the models in their community fashion show. Everything from bathing suits to evening gowns were shown.

During all these activities we found time to completely redecorate our room. Wal­nut paneling and louvered sliding doors for our cupboards are the most noticeable fea­tures, but the vanity section and the lovely phone booth add interest and are our fa­vorite spots.

The spring semester was a happy one and we were sorry to see it end as well as to see the departure of 15 wonderful seniors: Jo Ann Cortilesso, Mary Ann Gevaudan, Darlene Holiday, Natalie Jess, Judy Kay­lor, Barbara Khulke, Bonnie McKee, Paula Miller, Jane Nantais, Claire O'Brien, Patri­cia Raud, Rose Ramsey, Elaine Reicher, Domenica Vogel and Mary W ilson. At the banque t in their honor each received an eti­quette book, Social Usage.

This summer we Deltas were represented all over the world. Paulette Potter spent the summer in Switzerland ; Carol Wiley studied in Spain; and Faith D. Piazza stu­died in Mexico.-JrLL GERCKEN

May was a very busy month for all Alpha Taus at Concord, beginning with our an­nual picnic at Claytor Lake, Virginia, with our brother fraternity, Theta Xi. It was a grand day with lots of fun and lots of food. Next, a Senior Party was given for our five departing sisters : Nancy Elkins, Janice Fea­zell, Carolyn Lowe, Faith McClung and Re­becca Pruitt. Favors were white linen hand­kerchiefs with an embroidered yellow rose.

Then came the big event of the year­our Yellow Rose Formal-held at the Beck­ley Hotel, Beckley, West Virginia. This, too, was with our brothers, the Theta Xi. Winding ivy, candles and bubbling foun­tains set the mood for the dance. Navahlia Hanners was selected Theta Xi sweetheart and Charles Kirby was chosen Alpha Sigma Tau sweetheart. Linda Zorio and Carolyn Pierce were named "Best Pledges" for fall and spring semesters, respectively.

March 21 brought our sponsored "Skit Nite." Under the theme "Greek Mythology" Delta Zeta sorority won with a very funny spoof on the Trojan War. As usual, pro­ceeds were donated to the Harris Teachers' College Pan hellenic Scholarship Fund. Early in April, we had a theater party and a hay­ride.

For our April 27 cultural meeting we were honored to have Miss Audrey John­son, a psychology teacher, talk to us about "citizenship." May 2 found the Pi girls and their parents celebrating the annual "Par­ents' Day Banquet." The food was delicious and we enjoyed meeting and talking with each other's parents. May 21 we attended the college's May Campus Carnival with its prizes, booths, and refreshments.

The pledges gave us a wonderful, food­filled picnic on May 23. Activities were quiet until June 15 when we gave our '65 graduates a party. Presented with pens for their new desks were Pat Graham, Marilyn Lesh, Bonnie Onder, Faye Schaedlich and Sharon Ward. We'll certainly miss these sisters next semester.

The weekend after finals was spent at Hillacres, Cuba, Missouri, where we relaxed together.

This semester Pi proudly tied , with a 3.01 average, for the college's Panhellenic Scholarship Trophy with Alpha Kappa Al­pha. Barbara Everhart, our "Best Pledge," was the happy recipient of the college's Alumnae Scholarship. Congratulations!

Congratulations are also in order for June bride Marilyn Lesh.

Rho has busy spring.

THE Spring semester at Southeastern State College in Durant, Oklahoma, was a busy one, especially for Rho Chapter. There was much work and fun involved in the Mexi­can fi esta rush party which was themed "South of the Border." The rush party proved successful by rewarding us with 10 new pledges: Linda Aker, George Ann Ash­ley, Judy Barlow, Linda Bullard, Marcia Estrella, Sue Henson, Susan James, Pat Kelly, Nancy Marzuola and Chele Phillips.

To raise money our pledges had a bingo game and gave away many good prizes. The annual football game was held with the Potent Pledges playing the Mousey Mem­bers. The money earned was used for So­rority blazers.

An Alpha Sigma Tau Dance was held at the Durant Country Club this spring. Be­cause of its success, we all eagerly voted to make the dance an annual affair. Other im­portant events were the naming of Dr. James Morrison, Dean of Instruction , as Alpha Tau Prof of the year, and ancy Marzuola as the outstanding pledge for the spring semester. Rho also won the volley ball intramurals and got top honors at the Beaux Arts Ball.

Many Alpha Taus received special honors , but we were especially proud of Annette Moss and Linda Zavodny. Annette was one among 30 students in the Uni ted States to

On the campus scene, A~T's were ve1y active. The election of college officers found many of our sisters holding top positions. Bobbie Allen was elected President of the Athletic Association; Fran Lipford became YWCA President, and "Cookie" Hawthorne, Secretary; Nancy Brown was chosen as Sec­retary of the Legislative Board, to which Sandy Byrum and Jean White were select­ed as representatives. Judicial Board Vice­Chairman for next year will be Mary Lea Shoulders, and Nancy Briton and Sandy Coder will serve as representatives to that board.

Alpha Kappa Gamma, honorary leader­ship fraternity, tapped sisters Bobbie Allen, Fran Lipford, Mary Kay Richeson and Jean White. When Chi-Longwood's secret or­ganization whose members represent the "Spirit of Longwood"-revealed its mem­bers, three A~T's were among them. These girls were seniors Ann Persak, Milly Wood­ward and Sarah Jane Lynch.

A Senior Farewell Banquet was one of our many spring activities along with a tea for the A~T's who returned for Longwood's Founders' Day. We also enjoyed many in­formal dinners in the sorority room, a pic­nic with our advisor, Mrs. Brooks, attending church as a group, and other get-togethers with our sisters.

May Day was a special one for A~T's at Longwood. The lovely queen was our own Wanda Old. On her court were other sis­ters, Ann Persak and Mary Richeson, and the director of the pageantry was A~T Lynn Gardner.

As the year closed, Zeta Taus were in a whirl of last-minute activities. Looking be­yond exams, we saw summer fast approach­ing, and a beach blast with the Madison College A~T's, exciting jobs, summer school, trips to new places, wedding bells, and finally for most-a return to new sorority activities in the fall with our new faculty advisor, Dr. Janet Bingner.-JEAN WHITE

Wesley Foundation Project:

FRAN LI PFORD

Longwood Junior Selected for

Work on Panama Youth Carnp

FRAN Lipford, a senior ma­joring in Spanish at Long­wood College, was one of a group of seven girls and seven boys from 10 sta tes selected for a work-study project in Panama. They did construc­tion work on a Methodist Youth camp at Cerro A zul (Blue Mountain) near Panama City. By 1968, it is hoped that the camp "viii provide a meet­ing place for institutes, re­treats, outings and conferences fo r some of the fu ture leaders of Panama. The 1ethodist church supports a secondary school in Panama City, the Pan-American Institute, and the students from this school and others will use the camp faciliti es.

Plans were for Fran and the group to be accompanied by 1r. and 1rs. Paul A. Schrad­

ing. Mr. Schrading is director of the Wesley Foundation and a minister at the Univer­sity of Pittsburgh. They left Miami by plane on June 23, after two days spent there in orientation returning August 14.

At Cerro Azul, an isolated and sparsely settled area, the 14 American students worked alongside Panamian youth and adults on the buildings for this camp site. The work involved

six weeks' time and effort with the first and las t weeks of the project used for orientation.

The daughter of Dr. and Mrs. S. A. Lipford of Bassett, Fran faced sh1dy as well as physical labor in the project. The group studied The Cost of Disciplineship, by Dietrick Bonhoeffer as part of their course work.

''I've been reading up on Panama ever since I found I had been selected and am real anxious to see it now. The thought of the student upris­ings down there doesn't scare me and I hope we are able to give the Panamians a be tter view and better ideas of the United States," said Fran be­fore her trip.

Fran expects to teach Span­ish for a year or two while she decides whether she likes teaching. She is also consider­ing interpreting in other places where her knowledge of Span­ish might be useful. She likes to sew and read and, though swimming is her favorite sport, she is learning to play tennis.

Fran entered her senior year as President of the YWC and Chairman of the World Chris­tian Community for 1965-66, of the Wesley Foundation and of Alpha Kappa Gamma.

decorations were beautiful and perfectly fitted the theme "Summer Time."

We have received a variety of honors again this term. "Miss Courtesy," a title given to the girl the student body feels is most deserving due to her kindness, friend­liness and genuine attitude, was an A:$T sister, Peggy Munsey of Little Rock, Ar­kansas. SCA Carnival Queen was another title given to Peggy. One of her three maids was Sister Betty Kai Turner from orth Little Rock, Arkansas.

Upsilon Chapter come through with a bang at cheerleading tryouts. We have four of six regular cheerleaders for the 65-66 school terms. They are Captain Betty Kai Turner, Carolyn Fagan of Conway, Glynda Fielder and Nancy Smith both of Little Rock, Arkansas. All four have been cheer­leaders before at ASTC.

Again, two Alpha Taus will lead the T­Steppers (our drill team). Rita Morris of Prescott, Arkansas, as Captain, replaces Julia Ewan of Clarendon, Arkansas; and Margo Dunaway from Conway, Arkansas, choreographer, replaces Nancy Smith.

Our entry to the Miss ASTC pageant was Tammy Stobaugh of Clinton , who well re­presented us. She is the present "Miss Clin­ton." Margo Dunaway, present Arkansas Forestry Queen, just completed her reign as Miss ASTC.

Mmion Riddell of Clarksville had the leading role in the annual musical "Carni­val." Several Alpha Taus had minor roles: Judy Jan Bradford and Tammy Stobaugh of Clinton and Marianne Loyd of Con"vay were dancers.

Marianne Loyd was also elected "Miss Young Republican" and represented ASTC at the state convention in Hot Springs, Ar­kansas. There Marianne was elected, from a group of girls representing various col­leges in Arkansas, the state of Arkansas' "Miss Young Republican," and she will now represent Arkansas at the national conven­tion this summer in Miami, Florida.

Election of officers began to draw near, and, after much thought, the following officers were installed for the ensuing year: President, Annette Corkern; Vice-President, Elizabeth "Ting" esom; Recording Sec­retary, Wanda Smith; Corresponding Sec­retary, Phyllis Perrin; Treasurer, Cheryl Henderson; Chaplain and Historian, Sara Sims; Custodian, Susan Smith; Editor, Ja­dine Thurman; Song Leader, Susan Rob­erts; and Rush Chairman, Jadine Thurman.

In February plans were made for our annual Spring Formal on March 19. A workshop for decoration was held at Ting

esom's home. Since we were celebrating our 25th Anniversary on Southeastern's campus, our theme was "Tw enty-Fiv e Treasured Years." Entertainment was fur­nished by the pledges. At the dance, it was announced that Cheryl Henderson had been chosen Sweetheart, and Phil Brown, a member of Sigma Tau Gamma, was chosen Favorite. The Sweetheart re­ceived the traditional bouquet of yellow roses, and the Favorite, an engraved cig­arette lighter. Escorts also received key chains from their dates.

As April approached, we made plans for our Easter Project. 'vVe gave Easter baskets to the class of Retarded Children at Ham­mond Elementary School.

May was a full month. Each year our Chapter decorates the college cafeteria for S. L. C.'s Alumni Banquet. This year we received a gold, engraved wall plaque in appreciation of our service. The Parents' Tea was held in May, also. E eryon seemed to have a wonderful time, and our parents were able to meet and talk with each other.

After so much work and no play, our Chapter decided it was time for some fun. So, we packed and went to Biloxi, Missis­sippi, for the weekend. Everyone report d a marvelous time, but a few came back with "sun fatigue."

We needed a fund-raising project for our Scholarship Plaque, which we give each year to the sorority with the highest scholastic average, and decided on a car wash.

As the semester closed, we honored our graduating seniors at a tea held at Miss Lowe's home. Those graduating are Misses Martha Tabor, Phyllis Dudden and Mrs. Judy Brandt Marshall. They received brace­lets from the Chapter and A~T candle­holders from the Chapter advisors. At the tea, Cheryl Henderson was presented the High Phi Award, given to the girl who has contributed unselfishly to her chapter and school.

Many Alpha Taus won awards and hon­ors this year. Susan Roberts was initiated into Phi Kappa Phi and the Thirteen Club, both honor sororities. Cheryl Henderson was initiated into Pi Mu Epsilon, a math honor fraternity.

Annette Corkern and Cheryl Jolivette were selected as members of Sigma Tau Gamma's White Rose Court. At their ball, Miss Sara Sims was presented with a bou­quet of White Roses for the time and talent she gave to the fraternity. Wanda Smith was chosen as the Sweetheart of the S. L. C. Gleaners Club, and Annette Cork e rn , Sweetheart of the Vets Club.

As student elections came, we were proud to have Sara Sims chosen as Co-Ed Vice-President of Student Government.

Our chapter is also well represented in the Miss Southeastern competition. Phi Chapter has five girls competing for the title to be announced in the fall.

Wedding bells rang in June for Martha Tabor, and in September for Carroll Jones. Best wishes to these girls.

As the semester closed we made a few skeleton plans for fall rush and decided to have a summer workshop to further plans. - JADINE THURMAN

MEMBERS OF the Psi Chapter returned from their first semester exams determined to make the spring season as successful as the fall one had been.

popcorn party, green and gold valentines, and a fun-filled Saturday night pajama party helped grade-conscious Psi's recover from the traumas of exams.

Spring rush for Psi resulted in the wel­comed addition of Pat Stever whose sister Carolyn is a Psi alumna. Psi has long awaited the arrival of our newest A:STer and Pat was almost overwhelmed by the rousing welcome of her 54 new sisters. In­cidentally, with the initiation of Pat Stover, Psi filled its quota.

A:ST became a byword at Madison during F ebruary as four Psi's were winners of ma­jor college offices. The elected A:ST' ers were Pat Thomas Torrence, Honor Council Pre -ident; Betty Deutz, President of the \\ o­men's Athletic Association ; ancy lyers, Editor of the Bluestone, the college ear­book, and Mickie Anderson, Editor of Th e Breeze, the campus ne'vvspaper.

Februmy was also the scene of a social

for those brides-to-be in Psi Chapter. The occasion was a successful surprise complete with squeals, tears and engraved remem­brances for our fortunate and starry-eyed sisters.

Psi sisters showed their Panhellenic spirit on March 5 by actively supporting a "tacky party" to help raise the funds necessmy for the Panhellenic Scholarship. This is pre­sented annually on scholastic merit and fi­nancial need.

Book-wearied A~Ters trooped to Madi­son's college camp, Riverwood, in the early spring for a weekend of fun and food-and most of all, "that A~T spirit." There were enough songs, games and refreshments to rejuvenate even the most sick-of-classes­and-tests ~Ter.

On May 15, Psi's hosted a cook-out and day of activities for approximately 30 chil­dren with visual defects who are students at the Virginia School for the Blind and Deaf. The bonds of sisterhood became even more visible when we were united in pro­viding happiness for others less fortunate.

Later in May, Psi again provided leaders in class elections. Jayanne Haines was elect­ed Vice-President of the rising Senior Class. Other Psi's chosen to serve are Missy Hub­ers and Susan Foster, senior representatives to the legislative branch of the Student Government Association. Junior Class elec­tions also put Alpha Sigma Tau in the cam­pus spotlight as Julia Hogg was elected Vice-President and Judy Williams, Treasur­er. Linda Mitchell was selected to the leg­islative branch of the SGA. Sandra Welsh

and Patti Birt were elected to YWCA Cabi­net and Social Committee, respectively.

As day students are an integral factor in Madison's campus life, Psi's were justly proud when an Alpha Sigma Tau, Karen Bowman, was elected to the prominent posts of both Sesame Club President and Honor Council Representative from the women day students.

In all the excitement of campus elections, A~Ters did not neglect Chapter elections. The new officers are J ayanne Haines, Pres­ident; Judy Vryland, Vice-President; Caro­lyn Cox, Treasurer; Jackie Rebel, Record­ing Secretary; Sandy Wade, Corresponding Secretary; Betsy Talbot, Chaplain, and Missy Hubers, Historian.

Alpha Sigma Taus can be doubly proud of Pat Thomas Torrence. In addition to serving as Honor Council President, Pat has been elected Secretary of College Chapters Section of the American Home Economics Association of 1965-66.

May seemed to be a month devoted to Psi sisters and their activities. On May 1, Madison College observed its annual May Day and Alpha Sigma Tau had beautiful representation in Barbara Sweeney, Senior Princess, and Cathy Consolloy, Senior At­tendent.

At Madison's Honors Day Program, A~Ters Juanita Crumpler, Barbara Sweeney and Andrea B. Lacy took prominent parts. Juanita received the Sigma Phi Lambda Honor Society award. This is given to the member of the sophomore class having the highest academic average. Barbara

Sweeney, Editor-in-Chief of the 1965 year­book, dedicated and presented the Blue­stone to Mr. and Mrs. Forest Palmer, spon­sors of the Class of '65. Barbara was pre­sented with her certificate as a member of Who's Vlho in American Colleges and Uni­vm·sities. Andy Lacy was the recipient of the Zeta Tau Alpha award for both scholas­tic and personal qualities. She was further recognized for her academic excellence as having an overall average of 3.75 out of a possible 4.00, and as being one of four stu­dents having been named to the Dean's List for seven consecutive semesters.

Psi bid both welcome and farewell to a succession of advisors this year. Our fami­liar Dr. Marilyn Crawford, viewed with both affection and respect by the entire Chapter, regretfully relinquished the posi­tion of advisor due to time needed for a re­search project. Psi was delighted when Dr. Mary Murphy accepted our offer to succeed Dr. Crawford, only to be disappointed when Dr. Murphy accepted a teaching position elsewhere. Psi sisters were again giving that "A:ST smile" on May 23 when we ini­tiated Miss Pat Flaugher as sister and ad­visor. We feel extremely fortunate to gain another advisor who possesses these same qualities of loyalty and fellowship as our previous ones.

To end the school year with the real spirit of sisterhood, Psi joined forces with Zeta Tau Chapter for a week of sun and sand at Virginia Beach. Sadness mingled with the fun as we said good-bye to our graduates. Although we hated to watch them go, we feel fortunate to know tha t wherever they go, they will take with them "that A:ST spirit."-MICKIE ANDERSON

Alpha Alpha has "action" Spring.

THE ALPHA-ALPHA's began the winter's ac­tivities with a "Hootenanny Hop" featuring the Yeomen, a folk singing group from Fort Wayne, Indiana. Soon after the hop

we added five new pledges to our m m­bership. They were Sharon Cable, Pat ar­son, Joanne Ganshorn, Carol Harader and Jeannie Routsong.

On the night of February 13, we held a dance at "Hobo Junction" in honor of our nine wonderful pledges. The big event of the evening was Sharon Cable's crowning as "Hobo Honey."

Spring quarter promised many things for Alpha-Alpha's and activities began ap­propriately with the addition of four new pledges. They were Ann Bird, Carolyn Crowl, Carolyn Reger and Sue Stypcznski. But before we added these to our ranks we lost our other nine for a weekend. They turned up in Indianapolis for a stay at the Claypool Hotel and an evening of food, fun and "Mary Poppins."

In April, along with the Lambda Chi Alpha's, Delta Chi's and D elta Zeta's, we placed first in the Theta Xi All Greek Vari­ety Show. Our act, "War Fair," held the audience spellbound and captured top hon­ors for us. We were busy during the rest of the month with a Bridge Party with the alumni, and the annual Parents' Day Din­ner, held this year at the Holiday Inn in Muncie.

Activities for May began the night of May 1 when we had our annual spring formal. The Alpha-Alpha "Honey Club" was at the Holiday Inn Downtown in In­dianapolis. We dined and danced and then attended a post party at the home of Bar­bara Ward in Carmel, Indiana. The next weekend found us at Camp Isanogel for some days of planning, sunburn and pranks.

Other May activities were a Bike-a-thon, a car wash, a Dessert Smorgasbord, a "go to church Sunday" at the new Grace Lu­theran Church in Muncie, the Senior Pic­nic and the Chapter Founders' D ay Picnic honoring alumni.

But the biggest event of May was on the night of May 9 when we brought nine girls into active membership.

During the spring we had bvo queen candidates. Jl,ldy Adams was our repre­sentative for the "Rose of A~TI" and Sharon Cable, for Orient Queen.

Looking forward to fall the Alpha­Alpha's were busy with plans for Home­coming.

THE ALPHA DELTA Chapter began the spring semester with initiation services for Bar­bara Farthing, Marilyn Fronabarger, Romey Hedric, Sandy Hines, Ellen Treece and Elaine \iVhite. Preceding the service, we all had breakfast at the Arrowhead Restaurant and attended church at University Heights Baptist Church. At the breakfast Judy Ruesler presented Marilyn Fronabarger with a trophy for having the highest grades in the pledge class. Ellen Treece was pre­sented the Ideal Pledge b·ophy by Cather­ine Swineford.

After initiation, new officers were elected : Julie Siddens, President; Linn 1 utter, Vice­President; Beth Ford, Treasurer; Ellen Treece, Recording Secretary; Elaine White, Corresponding Secretary; Jane Levan, Edi­tor; Cheryl Stockton, Chaplain; Barbara Farthing, Historian .

Our Panhellenic Council sponsored a "Go-Greek Week" this semester. We had several rush parties and gained two new pledges, Linda Barber and Kathy Williams.

Our sister chapter, Alpha u, paid us a welcome visit during February. We all had a marvelous time when we spent a week­end as guests of Alpha u at vVarrensburg during March.

At SMS's second annual Greek \Veek, Alpha Delta participated in buffet dinners at the sorority houses, a Greek sing and an all-Greek dance.

A~T actives and pledges alike, dressed in their best style, and with their shoeshining equip­ment went to all the fraternity houses ready and willing to shine shoes. A booth was also set up in the college's adminisb·ation building. We all had a lot of fun be ide learning how to shine shoes.

The pledges had bake ales and ironing days to earn money for a gift to the chap-

vVe welcomed Mrs . F. E. Baer as our new housemother the first of April. About this time we all packed picnic lunches and drove out to Lake Springfield for fun in the sun and a planning session for next year's rush . In spi te of sunburns we accomplished a lot.

Highlight of the spring semester was our annual Yellow Rose Formal at Riverside Inn. Catherine Swineford was crowned Yel­low Rose Sweetheart by Julie Siddens, Chapter president. Faye Fronabarger and Phyllis Templeton were her attendants. Linda Ford presented the Ideal Active trophy to Phyllis Templeton, and each of the pledge trainers received a silver, p ledge­paddle charm, engraved with A~T , pledge, 1965. The chapter presented a trophy to Bob Brooks, Sigma Alpha Epsilon, for serv­ice rendered to the sorority during the past year. Jeff Tallent, Sigma Tau Gamma, re­ceived the Big Brother Award.

Week, elections highlight

spring quarter.

THE ALL-UNIVERSITY Stunt Show, Greek W eek and campus elections were highlights of spring quarter for the Alpha Epsilon Chapter.

The season began when Alpha Si gma Tau won the sweepstake award in the ni­versity variety show. Our act was called "Monopoly Land" and featured numbers such as "Nothin' Could Be Finer than to be in Carolina," 'Tve Been Workin' on the Railroad," "Under the Boardwalk," and an original fin ale, "Let's Play Monopoly."

Greek Week came in April and ' as an exciting time at the Alpha Tau house. We were paired with Phi Sigma Epsilon and participated in all events with them. The week was a busy one as we 'vVere invol ed in a facu lty-Greek exchange, social service project, Sigma Sing, a toga party and a Greek Ball. The Phi Sigs surprised us on evening when they came to the house dressed in togas for an informal exchang .

Alpha Taus once again took several top positions in campus class elections. Sue Forke was elected Junior Class Secretary­Treasurer. Margie Huber, Sandy Valenta and Kay Werner were chosen as campus leaders, and Margie Huber, Sandy Valenta, Patti Simonides, Barb Tornillo, Sue Forke and Candy Thornton were chosen as class personalities. This is quite an honor as only 1:\;vo girls are selected from each class. Sandy Valenta and Bonnie Steinke were appointed as University Union Board Chairmen, and Caren Cavanaugh was elected to the Ex-

ecutive Board of the All-University Student Government. Donna Schively was a finalist in the Best Dressed Girl Contest, and Kathy Bollwinkle was a finalist in the Miss Ma­comb Pageant.

Spring quarter ended with the annual Dinner-Picnic. In past years we have had a fo rmal dance, but this year we decided to have an informal picnic at a nearby park. Favors were black leather playing card cases and cards with A~T engraved on them.

We feel that our Chapter has had a ery successful year , and we are looking fo rward to a busy and exciting 1965-66 chool ) ar. - 1ARJO CooPER

Alpha Zeta

boards magic carpet.

ALPHA ZETA's spring semester put sorors and p~~ospective pledges on "magic carpet rushes to faraway places. The first stop was Hungary. Costumes were worn by the sisters, and authentic recipes were prepared under the supervision of Mrs. H ethy, the mother of our President. Hungarian music wafted through the air while sisters and alumnae met possible pledges. Miss H elen Hethy presented some information of cul­tural interest and answered questions raised by the group.

Our second stopping place was the Orient. This rush was rich in Oriental atmosphere and proved a very congenial gathering. Everyone mastered the use of chopsticks, or tried to, while enjoying a dinner prepared by Josephine Chang.

As a result of our rushes, we received eight new pledges, Ellen Abramowitz, Rita Cashman, Paula Cohn, Karen Delahanty, Christine Johansen, Gladys Murphy, Nancy

Rosati and Phyllis Rosati. The pledges worked industriously on their skit for "Greek Letter Day." They presented a musical account of the settling of the West entitled "Hell Bent for Leather." The cos­tumes were cowgirl outfits of green and yellow.

Sisters, alumnae and pledges attended Queens College's Greek Cotillion, sponsored by the Panhellenic Council, where Eileen Hethy presented our eight pledges to the other sororities of Queens College. The Mother-Daughter Luncheon, held in May, proved to be an excellent opportunity for sorors, mothers, pledges and alumnae to become better acquainted.

Perhaps one of the most eagerly awaited events was the Initiation Dinner-Dance at the Tavern on the Green. The evening was very enjoyable in its outdoor, candlelight se tting.

Activities were planned to span the sum­mer months-a barbecue, beach party, pic­nic and a game night. Our last meeting saw the election of new officers. Laura uzz1 1s our new President; Juanita Perez, Vice­President; Gladys Murphy, Recording Sec­retary; Ellen Abramowitz, Corresponding Secretary, and Christine Johansen, Trea ur­er.

Spring rushing opened with a tea attend­ed by 66 rushees. The n xt event, our "spread" was a Hawaiian luau: "Alpha Aloha." Wooden monkey hanging from palm trees as part of the decorations were take-home favors. Our dessert, the third and fin al event of rushing, was a highly successful evening which became a spon­taneous "sing" with the aid of our talented sisters Gretchen Aszling and Chri Burr. We took 11 wonderful girls in our spring pledge class: Kay Beardsly, Claire Bomers, Mary Boulton, Jill D ally, Carol Leffingwell , Sandra Martin. Marlianne Mauch, Karen Schlaudt, Andr a Schreiber, Lynn Sumpter and Susan Woehrlen.

The pranks and party presented by the pledges were consistently concerned with the "Jolly Green Giant," soon to become a trademark of their presence.

Snow· Carnival came to the Alma Cam­pus without the accompaniment of snow; but is was a cheery occasion anyway, made more so by having Sister Randy orris elected Snow Queen, and Connie Constant, a member of the Court. Connie was also elected TKE sweetheart.

Our formal , a 1ay event at the lovely Owosso Country Club, was another happy and well-attended occasion, and was ble s d by beautiful springish weather.

Alpha Theta's

spring pledge class is up.

SuccEss VISITED Alpha Theta in the spring semester. After five rush teas held at mem­bers' homes, in a downtown Detroit hotel and at U-D, a pledge class of ten was ac­cepted . The largest for the chapter in sometime! They include Gail Artner, Bianca F errari , Barbara Hicks, Gail Horan, Peggy Powers, Kathy Serracino, Kathy Smith, Pat VanDeVeere, Holly McKitrich and Quina Goquiolay. The girls were initiated at a real Italian spaghetti dinner in the home of Anna Maria Petrozzi on June 1. Miss Fer­rari is a cousin of Miss Petrozzi.

Gail Horan received the Gamma Pi Epsi­lon sophomore of the year award. Gamma Pi is a national Jesuit honor society for women students. And U-D is one of several Jesuit colleges in the United States.

The biggest semester activity was the an­nual spring carnival. In bermudas and sweat shirts we hammered and painted at making a booth, in fact , two booths. Oms was a double one. Bright-colored cartoon fi sh and ducks decorated the background panels for the combination fish pond and kiddie race car booth .

By Friday night, May 1, the booth was ready as were tired , but happy, Alpha Thetas. With ready smiles, and despite the splashings, we turned top sales personali­ties to get customers . We were successful and had fun , too!

Alpha Theta ran Past-President Barbara Busby and her fiance, Thomas Franchi, for Carny King and Queen. Also during the semester we had a mixer with the St. Fran-

Alpha Theta chose Andy Askin , Sigma Pi Epsilon, as Tough Tau. We also en tered him in the campus Ugly Man contest ( al­though he's not ugly!) held for charity.

Shortly after Carny, Student Government elections were held. One of our new mem­bers, Gail Horan, sought a Senate seat. And she won!

In early May, the biggest social event of the year, the annual Alpha Theta Dinner­Dance occurred . This year it was held at Lochmoor's Country Club in fashionable suburban Grosse Pointe. Some members wore long evening dresses, while others ap­peared in street-length gowns for a memor­able evening.

On Mother's Day, we invited our mothers to a Communion Breakfast. As the Univer­sity of Detroit is a Catholic school and most Alpha Thetas also Catholic, too, we at­tended a Sunday Mass offered by a Univer­sity professor in a campus chapel, and later went to breakfast at nearby Kregars' restau­rant.

Before exam time came in late May, Alpha Theta had its annual election of of­fi cers for the coming school year. Handed the gavel for the 1965-66 presidency was Kathy Ceru . The VP spot went to 1 ancy Patten. Recording Secretary will be Fran Jokubaitis and Marianne Sante will be Cor­responding Secretary. The new Treasurer is Diane Winiarski .

Other offi cers are Jeanne Parus, Pledge Mistress; Betty Crawford, Editor; Anna Maria Petrozzi, Social Chairman; Andrea Tynan, Chaplain and Program Chairman · Quina Goquiolay, Custodian; and Bev Owens, Etiquette Chairman.

The chapter was honored as a co-reci­pient of a scholarship cup for scholastic achievement during the school year. Indi­vidual members also received various cam­pus honors.

She also was named the copy editor of the Univer­sity's bi-weekly newspaper, The Varsity News. The outstanding coed is an accom­plished horseback rider, too.

Andrea Tynan was re-elected secretary of the International Students Association which, while promoting the cultural and social understanding of students of all na­tions at the University, establishes lasting friendships among them. Andrea is com­mended for her sincere interest in promot­ing such a worthwhile cause. She served as an excellent corresponding secretary for Alpha Theta this past year.

Betty Crawford was named the women's editor of the school newspaper as well as editor of Alpha Theta. She will be respon­sible for organizing the women's page and staff. The paper has not had an established woman's page in the past. Besides serving in other campus journalism groups, Betty works for a daily in the Detroit metropoli­tan area.

Receiving the anchor are '65 graduates Evelyn Adams, Barbara Busby, Dottie Dowd, Marilyn Johnson and Mary Beth McCarthy.

Summer activities opened with a day at Miss Patten's cottage in the beautiful Irish Hills, about 60 miles west of Detroit. Lunch, swimming, boating, skiing and sunning

filled the day. The members had such a good time, they couldn't wait until the next invi tation, which was already in the making.

A spiritual retreat, given by one of the school's Jesuits for the sister members, was planned for August. A second summer event was a Hawaiian barbecue and lawn party at Betty Crawford's.

One of the new members, Holly McKit­rich, was away this summer for a 6-week introductory stay with the Women's Marine Corps.

Barbara Busey and Thomas Franchi of Tuyere fraternity plan October vows. Mari­lyn Rigbey is engaged, too, and plans a D e­cember wedding. Barbara Hicks is wearing John Roberts' ring.

SECO D SEMESTER started in a flurry of ac­tivity for Alpha Kappa. At our second meet­ing we elected officers. This is only the second year that we have held elections so early, but we find that the transition of officers is much easier if the old officer ar

still present to give advice and assistance when needed. New officers are Judy Gants, President; Charlene Clements, Vice-Presi­dent; Harriet Miller, Recording Secretary; Cynthia Herman, Corresponding Secretary; Donna Dorsey, Treasurer; Cynthia Ostanek, Pledge Trainer; Linda Frigard, Rush Chair­man; Annette Santagata, Custodian; Sandy Baratta, Chaplain; and Louise Stephenson, Historian.

Preparation for Greek Sing started im­mediately. With the help of song leader Bobbie Thatcher, we selected "Froggie \iVent A'Courtin" for warm-up and "Scarlet Ribbons" for competition. We decided to purchase monogrammed blouses to wear at Greek Sing and for other occasions where we appear as a group. We agreed on long­sleeved yellow blouses with A:$T embroi­dered on in gold. The song practices seemed endless! But everyone pitched in. And even though we didn't win, I know we were all proud of the effort we had put forth for the performance.

At our pledge banquet in March at Leo's Italian Restaurant each Big Sister recited a poem which she had written about her Little Sister. They were hilarious and many laughs were shared all around.

Activation for our pledges came in April after a fun-filled Construction Week. ew actives are Sara Dunbar, Karen Ridenour, Marion Palmer, Suzanne Bendt, Doreen Lasagna, Amy Ranzer, Karen Hokanson, Peggy Dieckow, Nancy Garretson and Pat Nappi. Later we added three new pledges to our group-Susan Skinner, Bernice Rib­ler and Sharon Bouts.

In May we held our annual Spring For­mal at the Marietta Country Club. Alpha Kappas and their dates danced amid decor­ations proclaiming spring, consisting of giant-sized bumblebees, birds and flowers painted bright colors. We honored our sen­iors at this dance since graduation was drawing near. Congratulations are in order for Barbara Berman on her election to Phi Beta Kappa.

Wedding bells sounded for three of our sisters, Liz Lennon, Bobbie Ligon and Judy Fee.

Th last scheduled even t of the y ar was Senior ight. The seniors entertained us by presenting the class gift, reading th • class will and singing popular songs for which they had written appropriate words. The whole tone of the program was light and amusing. But as we ended the ev ~ning singing "No Tau Is An Island," many ey s filled at the thought of losing so many d ar Sisters.

So another year closed. The last few weeks were spent in making plans for Homecoming. Summer addresses were has­tily scribbled down; reminder of things not to forget to do over the summer were posted. Hurried good-byes were said. And then suddenly it was over, quiet for another summer, and we all looked forward to this year and its activity and excitement. -CYNTHIA OsTANEK

Alpha Lambda

shows new outfits.

ALPHA LAMBDA Chapter returned for a spring quarter showing of new outfits . .. yellow, sleeveless A-line dresses with each girl's initials monogrammed on the front. Many of us made little triangle scarves to match the dresses.

The Panhellenic Council of Radford Col­lege held its annual garden party for all those students who wished to rush this fall. Alpha Sigma Tau was there in force and able to meet many future rushees.

May Day Weekend proved successful for the Alpha Lambdas. Sybil orris, senior, and Diane Harry, sophomore, lovely in their yellow empire gowns represented the Taus on the May Court. In fact , the colors for the May Day theme were green and yellow. Perhaps Barbara Stetson and Don­na Hodgkins, representing us on the May Commission, had something to do with that! A:$T won second place in the Pan­hellenic Sing with "A Spoonful of Sugar" and "Green Cathedral." We held op n

39

house in our sorority room, which sported new furniture presented by the fall '64 pledge class. We are very proud of the furniture, and especially proud of our new members.

The big event of the year was our annu­al Sweetheart Banquet, this year at the Hardy House in Blacksburg. The food was wonderful and we were delighted to have Dr. Martin, President of Radford College, as our special guest. The Taus and their dates especially enjoyed the witty enter­tainment presented by the new members. We are very proud of our new Sweetheart, Judy Yates from Chesapeake, Virginia, and her Maid of Honor, Paula Stout, who also received the Scholarship Award.

The climax for the year '64-'65 was, of course, Cabin Parties. Again we were able to use Mr. and Mrs. Spiers' cabin on Clay­tor Lake, for which we are grateful. It seems that we always become so much closer during the weekend of Cabin Parties, which makes them special to us. They are serious, funny and sad at the same time, and, with the fun of swimming, water-ski­ing, boating, and our own cooking, are thoroughly enjoyable. We were happy to see many of our recent alumnae attend, including Mary Sue Lowe, Emma Over­street and Joyce Bly.

This year we added two activities to our annual events . .. for a new social service we made a trip to the Greenlawn ursing Home to sing and talk with the people. For fun, and because we had four watermelons left from Cabin Parties, we had a water­melon feast in Miss Pat's lovely backyard.

The Alpha Lambdas are already plan­ning for rush season, with ancy Moore and Donna Hodgkins as Co-rush Chairmen. Since we have girls from all over the U.S. , and even from Bolivia, we are able to get good diversified ideas.

Many new honors came to Tau this year. The Co-Chairmen of Junior Follies, the junior class' annual musical , comical, and talent presentation, were ancy Moore and Kay Heppner, both Alpha Lambdas . The senior class officers for '65-'66 include our own Marty English as President and ancy

40

Moore as Vice-President. The new junior class officers include Tau's Linda Posten. The new President of Orchesis, the modern dance club, is Toni Pimentel. This will make the third year that Tau has held the presidency of Orchesis. The list of Tau officers is long, and we are extremely proud of all our members, and looking forward to a successful year for Alpha Sigma Tau. -KAY HEPPNER

Alpha Mu recetves sixteen.

THE 1965 spring semester was very pro­ductive for Taus at A&M. Out of 29 rush­ees we were fortunate to receive 16 won­derful pledges: Joy Buzbee, Margie Cham­bers, Mary Cowan, Kathy Duran, Sherry Everett, Twyla Gray, Peggy Hackett, Wan­da Hackhey, Judy Harper, Beck Hobbs, Sara Johnson , Peggy McKown, Florence Morgan, Brenda Rump and Judy Socia. During the pledge period the girls con­ducted an Easter Seal Drive at College Heights.

The semester was filled with informal mixers with our brothers, and highlighted on May 1, with the Spring Formal, Polyne­sian Paradise. Carroll Dew was named beau and Cathy Martin, Sig Tau White Rose, at the formal. Other than mixers we had a party at the home of our patroness, Mrs. Edwin Bird, highlighted with enter­tainment by the pledges.

Our semester was made up of both joy and sorrow. We were sad to lose our ad­visor, Mrs. Earl Willis, who has been with us since our formation at A&M. But we are proud to announce that Mrs. Donna Smith, formerly our assistant ad isor, is now our advisor. vVe are also losing Linda D avis, who is transferring to Arkan as tate Teachers College.

Not only were Alpha Tau pledges plenti­ful, honors were plentiful, too. Among these are Sharon Greene's election to the steering committee of the Student Senate, and Kay Forrester's as cheerleader for the coming year. Mary Cowan and Kathy Duran , both pledges, were chosen as Best Actress and Best Supporting Actress, respectively, for their roles in the spring play.

Individual Alpha Omegas were equally successful. Bertha Schlessinger, past Chap­ter President, became President of Panhel­lenic Organization. Alice Mayo is our new President. With the help of Vice-President Karen Eisenstadt, and all the other newly installed officers, the sorors are confident that Alice will lead Alpha Omega through another good year filled with exciting ac­tivities and awards.

The term ended with the highlight of the Brooklyn social calendar-County Fair, on May 14. And for the seventh straight year Alpha Sigma Tau broke all records to win first prize in the 25-foot novelty category. Working with Sigma Alpha Mu fraternity we entered a 19th century train- from a flower-covered prairie and cactus, down to a poisoned waterhole, we were "Moving \iVest."

Yes, the 1965 spring term was a wonder­ful one for Alpha Omega, complete with the rewards Alpha Sigma Tau has made traditional on the B. C. campus.-MARION A 'TMANN

Baton Rouge

has happy reunion!

THE BATON Rouge Alumnae Chapter wel­comed Mrs. Susie McBee as an honored guest at our February meeting. It was a happy reunion for only a short two years ago Susie had helped us re-organize our Chapter for the Baton Rouge area. Also, at this meeting we voted to present Phi Chap­ter of Southeastern Louisiana College with a monogrammed linen tablecloth at their annual spring Parents' Tea. The tablecloth is needed for installation services and spe­cial occasions.

A "Pantry Party" at the home of Fran Winstanley highlighted our March meeting. We fi lled a large basket with food to give to a needy family at Easter time.

On April we elected and installed officers for 1965-66. Since we are a new group we had retained the same officers for our first two years. Thus this election was an occa­sion! The new officers are President, Peggy Aime; Vice President, Noy Strickland; Re­cording Secretary, Kay McPherson; Cor-

Bluefield features cultural programs.

TriE BLUEFIELD Alumnae began 1965 by hearing a most interesting book review by Mrs. C. D . Pruett on T ears are for the Living by Margaret Bannister . This meet­ing was in the home of President Marcella Whitlock.

In February the Sorority met with Mrs. Henrietta Hamilton and Mrs. Mary Ruth McClung. The program guest, Mrs. Ernes t Pinson, was introduced by Mrs. Ralph Patsel. Mrs. Pinson's program of music fea tured talks on two composers and a de­scription of music as "painting pictures with sound." She gave a brief narration about "Sunken Cathedral" or "Submerged" by Claude DeBussy, and also · told about a contemporary composer, Aaron Copeland, and his "Cat and Mouse" composition. She pl ayed the music after telling the stories.

In March we me t at the home of Mrs. Helen Gatherum. An In Memoriam serv­ice was conducted by the President paying tribute to the late Mrs. R. E . (Gladys) Dalton . The Sorority flower, yellow roses, and one green candle, carrying out the Sorority colors, were used in the service. Silent prayer was offered and the Sorority scripture read.

Program guest, Jeanne Fo ter, reviewed Swing Old Adam by Libby Marsh Camp­bell of Parkersburg, W est Virginia. The book describes a year in the life of an old­style hillbilly town in a warm, easy and frequently witty style. Barbara W arden was hostess for our April meeting, Mrs. Jane Patsel as co-hostess. Sorority business and news was discussed.

In May, the monthly meeting was high­lighted by the installation of the new Soro­rity officers. They are Mrs. Joyce Buchanan, President; Miss Marcella Whitlock, ic President; Miss Barbara W arden, Recording Secretary and Editor; Mrs. Henri tta H am­ilton, Treasurer; Miss Thelma Bail , Cor­responding Secretary· Mrs. 1aT Ruth ~~ -

Buffalo

makes tray favors /or hospital.

IN FEBRUARY, Helene Blackledge was hostess at our monthly dessert meeting. We had a wonderful time at the "Lucky Name Party" following the business meeting.

Later in February, the Buffalo City Pan­hellenic Association had a party followed by a tour of the Buffalo Historical Society Building. It was fun to see and talk again with old friends from other sororities at this annual event.

Oravell McLean was our March hostess. We heard "Impressions of the Holy Land" by our guest traveler, Mrs. Alva King who brought several lovely pictures and sou­venirs to share with us.

President Evelyn Grampp was hostess at our board meeting in April. Later in the month we had a spaghetti dinner and hat fashion show to benefit our Social Service Fund. Over 90 members and their fri ends enjoyed Mrs. Bea Carpenter's narration while professional models showed the lates t in hat fashions from a local department store.

During Easter vacation the Buffalo City Panhellenic sponsored a "Kinder Koncert" at our Kleinhans Music Hall. This program, prepared especially for children, was con­ducted by the Buffalo Philharmonic Orches­tra. The first of its kind in Buffalo, it was a complete, unqualified success with all tickets sold out several days ahead of the concert. A congratulatory telegram was sent to Panhellenic by one of our state

ANCHOR

Senators. Plans for a future program arc alr ady being made.

Florence Bates was our May host ss. W · made several dozen tray favors resembling little Bower baskets, and presented them to the Edward J. Meyer Memorial Hospital. This Social Service Project was greatly ap­preciated by the hospital.

New officers elected for the coming year are President, Marjorie Willover; Vice Pres­ident, Ellen Iten; Recording Secre tary, Janet Bartlett; Corresponding Secretary, Eunice Pundt; Treasurer, Kathryn Baxter; Chaplain , Dorothea Porter; Editor, Norma Martin ; Historian, Florence Sodus.

Lucile Steen invited us to her lovely home for a June picnic supper. After a de­licious outdoor dinner, we met inside to discuss summer plans.

"Tau Tot Time," for members and all their children, will be held on July 8 as a picnic at Dorothea Porter's summer home in Canada. It is our first such venture and we hope it will be a big success.

We have all enjoyed a wonderful, ex­citing Sorority year in Buffalo.- ORMA MARTIN

Denver

gives china to Nu.

1965's first meeting found most of us at the home of June Sanders, and, as always, we were served a wonderful luncheon prior to the business meeting. President Shirley Bales tried to start her trip home after the meeting in a blaze of glory when her new car began to smoke. Fortunately, June's husband helped put out the fire, and no serious damage resulted. Our February meeting was at the lovely home of Mar­garet Troisi, and after the main business of the day, we all filled out a form which will provide the courtesy chairman with per­tinent data as to our birthdays, anniver­sary, etc. This will be used to send appro-

priate cards, and I , for one, think it is a Detroit J splendid idea. mLxes fun with

social service. The Ides of March found us gathered

again at Marianne Lamberty's . A report was given on the efforts of our hard-work­ing Verna Page, who has been doing a wonderful job of tracking d9wn those '1ost" Sisters in the Denver area. There wasn't any meeting in April, but in May we had two successive gatherings. Our regular luncheon meeting was at the home of Dibby Strelesky, and a most enjoyable one it was. The next week was the State Day luncheon at the Greeley Country Club, and all the Denver Alumnae who attended wish to say a hearty "thank you" to u Chapter and the Greeley Alumnae who made all the arrangements. The u seniors were the honored guests, and the en ter­tainment was provided by the actives.

Our June meeting, at the home of Shir­ley Bales, was for the elec tion of officers. The present officers must have done a fin e job, because they were elected for a second term.

Our major project is to provide 24 place settings of China for Nu Chapter. All u Alumnae are being contacted to help make this gift possible, so if you were missed, won't you please contribute to this en­deavor? Any gifts may be sent to Verna Page, 803 South Flamingo Court, Denver. For next year, we are hoping that many of you in this area will join us at our monthly meetings, which are on the third Saturday of the month. For your convenience, we are listing the meeting places:

September-Marianne Lamberty, 1800 South Monaco

October-Marianne Pulliam, 1696 South Alcott

ovember-Lavonne Carlton, 4185 East Florida

OUR FEBRUARY meeting, at the home of Kathleen Monticello, was highlighted by the initiation into the Alumnae Chapter of the most recent graduates of Theta and Alpha Theta chapters. All of us were re­minded again that sorority life only begins in college and provides a lifetime of endur­ing friendships. To welcome our newest members, all were invited to the annual Valentine Dinner-Dance at Cregars Pick­wick House. With Ingrid agy and Ava Strachan as hostess, the dance was, as usual, well attended and enjoyed by all.

In March, we continued our program of social service with C.W.V.S. We met at the home of Margaret Broadman, and under the direction of Emily Fitzgerald, made picture puzzles from magazine pictures and cardboard for a children's hospital.

April was annual meeting time. Our re­tiring President, Marlene Jennett, turned over the gavel to Marsha Ewart. Lillian Meister hostessed the meeting.

Dorothy Wood welcomed members to her home in May. "Planning Ahead" was the theme as we all offered suggestions for programs and social events for next year.

We closed the year with a lovely lunch­eon at the Livonia Knights Inn in June. Gloria Heino made the arrangements for this, our last get-together until September. -KATHLEEN MoNTICELLo

Emporia

hears of Cuban escape.

EMPORIA ALUMNAE heard interesting pro­grams at the February and March meet­ings. In February the group met at the Iota Chapter house and watched a flower ar­ranging demonstration by a local florist. At the March meeting we were especially in­terested in visiting with Mrs. Jutiez, wife of a Cuban student at Emporia State. Mr. J utiez was one of a group of professional men who had escaped from Cuba. He was taking college courses to prepare for a

ANCHOR

career in the United States. Mrs. Jutiez told of their family and of the daring escape they made from Cuba last year.

May 3 was State Day in ewton, Kansas, and many Alumnae and Collegiates enjoy d visiting with old friends and taking part in the Iota House Cooperation meeting.

Initiation services were conducted by President Jan Eilert for 17 Collegiates join­ing the Alumnae group at the regular May meeting. A party in honor of the girls fol ­lowed the services.

Miss Vickie McAdoo received the Alum­nae Achievement Award for outstanding work and dedication to Iota Chapter. The Award was made at Parents' Day, as it is annually to a senior girl.

During final week in May the Alumnae again treated the hard-working Collegiates with after hour snacks.

As a money-making project this Spring a unique tax form was made and given to each member who then paid a few cents assessment for items she possessed. Such possessions as pets, husbands, fur coats, boats, etc. , were entertaining assessments.

Alumnae Board members were busy this spring working with Collegiate Board mem­bers in hiring a new cook and housemother. With several new members joining our group we are looking forward to another fine year for Emporia Alumnae.-JA GREEN

Flint

Penland School.

FoR OUR March cultural meeting, Flint Alumnae invited their husbands to Diana Walsh's new home to hear Cece Johnson, from the Alma College Chapter, describe her experiences at Sierra Leone Universi ty in West Africa. In May, Shirley Green Ross Church and Verna ewman had charge of the mother-daughter luncheon. Vema departed from the conventional pro-

47

grams and arranged a ballet number. Our main social project was sending bed

linen to the Penland School of Handicraft. In the thank-you note of Mr. Brown, the director, we learned that his mother lived in Flint. Trite but true, it's a small world.

Donna Essy has a new baby boy. Our world traveler, Hazel Schultz, has returned from her second European tour. Ola Hiller has decided not to let work interfere with her extracurricular affairs any longer. When she isn't traveling, she expects to live with a friend in Los Angeles. During the sum­mer, she toured the Orient, and during the winter, she plans an exploratory trip to an underdeveloped area to consider a possi­ble location for an education project spon­sored by Delta Kappa Gamma, an educat­ors' honorary society of which she has been international president. When she an­nounced that she was leaving the Flint School System, she received a dramatic send-off via newspaper publicity and num­erous, sometimes almost tearful, social func­tions.- Lucrr.LE MA WmN EY

Little Rock enJoys a

successful State Day.

THE GREATER Little Rock Alumnae Chapter has had a very enjoyable and successful year.

Our annual State Day was held in The Gardens Restaurant in March with girls and sponsors representing Alpha Gamma, Upsilon and Beta Mu Chapters of Alpha Sigma Tau in Arkansas. Many Alumnae from around the sta te also attended.

Following registration, which showed 84 members attending, we had a coffee and ge t-acquainted period. Our Alumnae Pres­ident, Peggy Bevans, welcomed everyone.

an Snow was chairman of the "buzz ses­sions" held to discuss problem and ques­tions concerning Collegiate and sorority life on the campus. We later heard the girls thoroughly enjoyed, as well as profited, from these "buzz sessions."

Following the sessions, Esther Creech in­troduced the Panel of Americans, who were our speakers. After the panel lunch was served. We then recognized an out­standing member from each Chapter. They were Sharon Carpenter, Alpha Gamma; Peggy Munsey, Upsilon ; and Bobbie Kel­lar, Beta Mu. Later we congratulated and recognized other girls who had enioyed honors throughout the year. We all en­joyed group singing of Alpha Tau songs while our models were getting ready for a style show. Following the style show we closed with the Alpha Tau Hymn.

Also our Alumnae Chapter participated in the Panhellenic Tea which is given every June for prospective sorority girls. The Tea is sponsored by the Panhellenic Council of Greater Little Rock. At the Tea each so­rority sets up a display booth. Our booth displayed the Collegiate Chapters annuals, uniforms and Sorority jewelry.

DETROIT ALUMNAE devoted one meeting last year to the making of picture puz­zles for hospitalized children. Emily Fitzgerald, CWVS representative, had collected a supply of plastic cigar boxes. Members brought pictures cut from magazines, th in cardboard, paste and scissors to the meeting. The pictures were carefully pasted to the cardboard, and cut into interesting shapes. A piece of colored construction paper was cut to the size of the box and decorated with a sticker- flowers, birds, etc. Th is was then attached to the underside of the plastic box lid . These attractive little ch i ld pleasers were then ready to present to the hospital.

Philadelphia has busy fall

and winter months.

With Charles Allison at the piano, the Philadelphia Alumnae trio of Ethel Weimar, Peg Reed and Peg Brown sing old favorites at an evening party.

FALL AND winter months passed all too quickly for busy Philadelphia Alumnae, but they have been punctuated with some very enjoyable Alpha Sigma Tau events. Our first meeting was a luncheon at Betty Alli­son's home in Haverford where Lois O'Dell and Emily Reedy reported on the Detroit Convention.

We went to town (downtown Philadel­phia, that is) for Founders' Day celebration with a luncheon at the Russian Inn. Lois O'Dell and Gwynne Davison handled ar­rangements and Peg Brown introduced her speaker, the Reverend Dirk Odendahl, a young South African minister who is here doing graduate work in seminary. 'With a viewpoint based on personal experience and a knowledge of the Africans and their problems that differs appreciably from the popular concepts we have acquired from the press, Rev. Odendahl told of the his­torical implications of today's South African situation. It was an interesting and worth­while afternoon.

Christmas for A~T was a festive time with a luncheon served by Betty Lee and Jean Goldman at Betty's home in Abington. At­tendance was good, the food delicious and the mood quite jolly. We brushed up on our Christmas carols with a "Sing Along with Mitch" type of program that set the mood for the seasonal music.

The ew Year began with a service proj­ect. After a hmcheon at the home of Lois O'Dell who was assisted by co-hostess, Peg McCullough, we made party favors for the Collegiates of Zeta Chapter a t Lock Haven State College.

In February Claire Jenkins and Virginia Burke tTeated us to a delicious luncheon at an old Germantown restaurant, the Boswell House. We each elected our own meal and were happy with good food and serv­ice. Following this, we went to Claire's home for a pleasant social hour.

This year our ''husbands' night out" meet­ing came in March with a "hootenanny" at the very attractive home of Phyllis and Al­bert Clark in Strafford. Perhaps this is a misnomer for there was a conspicuous lack of country music. However, an abundance of lusty singing of old favorites and show tunes provided good fun and merriment. The evening's mood of hilarity was height­ened as guests arrived in dress representing a song. Jean and Win Goldman were a well coordinated pair in get-ups that suggested "''m Just A Girl Who Can't Say o" and a most imperative "Get Me To the Church on Time." "Jack and Jill' came with their pail, as did a lovely colleen whose "Irish Eyes Are Smiling" and a fruit and vegetable vendor laden with everything but "Yes, We Have No Bananas." There was even "Betty Coed." We had fun guessing what ongs we represented. Later in the evening a ti'io composed of Peg Reed, Peg Brown and Ethel Weimar, accompanied by Charles Al­lison, sang three numbers from a new col­lection of old favorite and promised to learn three more for a future occa ion.

In March husbands and guests were in­vited to a social in the Appalachian Room in Princeton. Cards and games were the main form of festivity.

The officers are President, Mrs. Beryl Crockett Santon; Vice President, Mrs. Patty Parkey; Recording Secretary, Mrs. Melba Rector; Correspond­ing Secretary, Mrs. Anna Lee Greer; Treas­urer, Mrs. Sarah Jo White; Chaplain, Mrs. Margaret Weathedord; Historian, Mrs. Wanda Bradley; Editor, Mrs. Beryl Lam­bert. Miss Billie Rae Hall, a hair stylist, presented an enlightening program on tech­niques for managing different types of hair.

Mrs. Bula McNeill, Dr. Louise Pease and Miss Mary Edna Beckett were hostesses for the annual May luncheon which is always held at Bula's home, in Athens. An initia­tion service was conducted for Mrs. Jean Smith, and Mrs. Beryl Lambert was in­stalled as Editor. Everyone looks forward all winter to going to Bula's in May.

During the summer the group plans to have a rummage sale and a family outing.

FRIDAY, JA UARY 22, was the beginning of a very busy spring for the St. Louis Alum­nae. Avalone Oelze hostessed our regular business meeting during which our annual date and Panhellenic bridge parties were planned.

February was a fun-filled month. Alberta Keuper was hostess for our Panhellenic Scholarship Bridge Party on February 13, Maxine Graflage, for our Dinner-Date Par­ty on Februa1y 20; and Janis Marshall, for

51

our Panhellenic Scholarship Bridge Party on February 27.

Those girls initiated were Jo Ann Ebersohl, Joyce Fuller, Suzanne Gerlt, Jo Ann Litto, Louise Meserve, Darlys Moore, Pat Poehling, Marilyn Shroer, Jeanne Traut­wein and Rosemarie Vassallo.

March began with a dessert meeting served by hostess lisa Simpson. At this time, final arrangements were made for our April auction.

At our April meeting we busily bid on all kinds of goodies. We discovered a very good auctioneer in our membership-Sharon Culli. The profits of our auction totaled $26, in addition to all of the fun enjoyed by everyone.

In May, a potluck supper was followed by the installation of the following offi­cers: President, Margaret Gisselmann; Vice President, Sharon Culli; Recording Secre­tary, Carolyn Alexander; Treasurer, Patsy Hoffelder; Corresponding Secretary, Ruth Kilburg; Historian, Jewel Stephensmier; Chaplain, Marie Nemnich; Editor, Janet Robbins.

meeting a tea was held for all Alpha Sigma Tau Alumnae in the area. Chapter mem­bers had worked for several months to con­tact all these Alumnae to tell them of our group and invite them to join us. The tea enabled them to become acquainted with us.

The June meeting was at Meda Ray Sewell's home. We were very fortunate to have Mr. R. Don Early of the Food and Drug Administration as our speaker. He told us about the FDA's function to protect the consumer and gave examples as to how this is performed. He also exhibited some of the devices which the FDA had removed from the market in recent years. Members found Mr. Early's talk especially interest­ing and informative. More programs and speakers are planned for our meetings in the upcoming year.

WHAT A happy ending for a delightful year of activities in A~T! It was a pleasure to visit with Miss Gwen Frostic (Alpha Chapter, 1926), nationally known artist and poet on June 12, 1965. Starkweather Hall on Eastern Michigan University's campus hummed with conversation as Gwen greeted 150 guests from various social and philan­thropic groups as well as from Alpha Chapter. We gathered after commence­ment ceremonies to share some of those unique experiences Gwen so authentically and delicately creates with her pen and ink. Miss Frostic was one of five recognized leaders in the fields of education art and business to receive the honorary doctor of laws degree at the University's 112th com­mencement.

Gwen's accomplishments are numerous. She has authored five books and presently

Alpha Chap­ter is indeed proud to be affiliated with such talent!

Another highlight of our year was the Mother's Day Luncheon at Webber's in Jackson in May. The 30 people in attend­ance were enlightened by Mrs. Ramsey Townsend, our guest speaker. Her program about her experiences as a teacher in Ma­laysia for the Peace Corps was fascinating. She even brought samples of the fabric and some of the articles of clothing worn in

Malaysia, and various other Malaysian prod­ucts. She made Malaysia seem so much nearer. Mrs. Wanda Bates and Miss Elea­nor Mesden were also among our guests.

Martha Belknap's meeting was to include a husband-wife skating party in January, but as usual, the weather was against us. So with no ice to skate on, we convinced Marty to ask her father to provide our group with some of the cultural aspects many of us overlook. Mr. Drouyer gave a delightful presentation on antique jewelry. He displayed a variety of gems and settings, and reiterated the history of gemology. In fact, we toured his home and wandered through the past of high button shoes and pot bellied stoves. We handled pieces of Jacqueline Kennedy's china collection and saw one of the largest hat pin collections in the world.

Our White Elephant Auction after the meeting at Joyce Parker's proved quite in­teresting when Elaine Habel became the proud owner of a beautiful oil painting done by a Vietnamese artist.

Lurlene Weinberg's new home was the meeting place for election of officers. Our new slate includes President, Martha Belk­nap; Vice President, Lurlene Weinberg; Recording Secretary, Janet Kuhl; Corres­ponding Secretary, Sharon Bischoff; Treas­urer, Elaine Habel; Editor, Joyce Berg; Chaplain, Margaret Endahl; and Historian, Joan Carpenter. Speaking of new officers, we are pleased to have with us some new gals. From Beta, Sally Benedict, Sandy Kamer and Linette Lucas; from Alma, Lor­raine Davis and Louise Smith; from Brigh­ton, Doris Anderson; and from Ann Arbor Kathy George. '

Our Senior Initiation was at Joyce es­bitt's home where we initiated six new members from the Collegiate Chapter. Aft­er coffee and dessert we chatted with the girls before they had to rush back to the donns.

It's always nice to get together with the Collegiate Chapter, whether for work or for iust plain fun. All the Alumnae joined to help prepare food, decoration and mak

program plans for the Hawaiian festivities during rush. The alumnae donated some really exotic Hawaiian foods for their par­ties!

Founders' Day in April was at the Huron Motor Inn in Ypsilanti and cookies were brought by all to be distributed to the County Hospital.

Mitzi Maxey's home at Lake of the Pines was an excellent setting for our annual pot­luck dinner in June. After much too much to eat, plans were discussed for next year's activities. New and old officers got together and exchanged notes.

And so our year ended with everyone off for the cottage, summer school and vacations. We hope Alumnae everywhere in our area will hop aboard this fall and join in on our future activities. The more the merrier! We're all set to have a happy and successful 1965-66.-JoYCE BERG

since recognition of the worth of the individual remains one of the primary values of our society.

The Borough of Mansfield is a pleasant community of 2,800 situated on the edge of the Canyon Country in Pennsylvania's Northern Tier. The region is noted for vast stretches of forest and offers unexcelled opportunities for hunting and fishing. Archi­tects have developed a campus plan in keeping with the natural beauty of its environs. Tall trees, extensive lawns and attractive buildings combine to provide an atmosphere of quiet dignity.

The present physical facilities , consisting primarily of 15 buildings, will be greatly augmented during the next six years as approximately $17,660,000 will be spent on con­struction projects during this period at Mansfield State College. As the College prepares for its projected target enrollment of 3,000 students, dormitory construction starting in November, 1965, will account for $5,000,000 of this total, providing housing for an addi­tional 1,000 students. Other multi-million dollar projects will include the $1,500,000 World Culture Building; the $1,500,000 Dining Room; the $2,200,000 Field House and Swimming Pool; the $1,250,000 Research and Learning Center; and the $1 ,500,000 Classroom Building.
