Along with the change in the college scene, we n eed to be alert to the new demands being made of sorority women. This appeal is addressed to collegians who are now carrying the ASA banner on campuses and alumnae who need to see the important role gradua tes can play. High id_eals that were the foundations on which our organ.ization was established are more necessary than ever. College administrators are asking what we are doing to develop spiritual and moral qualities in our members. This is not to glibly quote aims but to actually put them into practice. In the closeness of a fraternal group it is possible to provide for personal growth, t o encourage teamwork, to develop leadership, to awaken community interest, and to realize the privileges of life in a democratic society. Today National Sorority and Fraternity magazines in .every issue carry articles that deal with such topics as citizenship, democratic heritage, and American ideals.

• THE long-awaited Golden Anniver ary Convention was held at Hotel Roanoke, Roanoke, Virginia, in August, 1952, with about two hundred and fifty Alpha Sigma Alphas in attendance. We wish each of you could have shared in the pleasure of meeting and knowing four of our founders, our first national president and many of our early members. It was something we shall never forget, and was tangible evidence of our fine heritage. Dr. Dabney Lancaster, president of Longwood College (formerly Farmville State Teachers College) was the guest peaker at the luncheon on all American Day. Hi address on "Our American Heritage" was inspiration to all of us. The work of this convention will govern the activities of our sorority for the next three years. The convention body voted to continue the national philanthropic program of furnishing equipment for occupational therapy departments in veterans hospitals. Interesting discussions were held in the alumnae and college workshops. The recommendations from both groups can be found in the official convention minutes in the possession of each college and alumnae chapter. College members were anxious that alumnae make use of the recommendation blanks. If you know a girl who i~. going to a college where we have a chapter, write to the national registrar, or to a college chapter for a blank. Many of you are teachers and have an opportunity to know high school girl who would be valuable members. The convention was brought to a close with the cutting of the birthday cake by our beloved retiring president, Wilma Sharp, and Evelyn Bell, our new president. The first fifty years of our history are behind us and we look to the future development of Alpha Sigma Alpha. -HELEN L. CoREY, 'Convention Manager.
GREETINGS TO ALL ASAS • As this New Year dawns and the old one becomes a memory may peace, goodwill and cheer be with you as a crowning benediction of each day of the coming year . . It has taken a heap of loyalty, service, love and hard work to have ucce sfully met the challenges of the passing times through the years. Through the efforts of the past officers and members of A~A, our orority has kepr un ullied tho e principle upon which it was founded. In this great world where there i o much unre t, we hall need be vigilant that we fall not into the spirit of materialism a against the spirit of i terly love and good-will toward all.

Mrs. J. L. Jones, first national president, and Mrs. Fred M. Sharp, immediate past national president.
As 1953 appears and we pass into the future what can YOU contribute to A~A in the form of enthusiasm, participation, uggestions and cooperation? It is said that all we end into the lives of others comes back into our own.- ZELMA KAH, National Alumnae Director.
• HAVE you ever been one of a group of "sidewalk superintendents" who intently looked at a huge piece of machinery at work? Perhaps at some time you have been intrigued by the inner workings of a watch. Whether you have been observing an enormous piece of equipment or the minute interval parts of a timepiece, you all know that each and every part must be kept in perfect working condition. Your sorority, in order to render its most efficient service to each member, must also have every one of it division and subdivi ion operating efficiently. · Some of the agencies to keep our sorority functioning properly mu t be done by each College or Alumnae group a a whole. Others require individual attention. One of the so-called individual tasks is Life Member hip. It might be intere ting but a bit di couraging sometime to ee what proportion of our membership have availed them elve of the opportunity of becoming Life Member .

• "To fill our days with satisfying activity " Alpha Sigma Alpha members fulfill this part of their Creed through their Philanthropic Program. On a national basis we support a Veterans' Administration Hospital in each of five regions, prQviding many items which contribute to the rehabilitation of the veterans. One of our most recent projects was the gift of draperies for the Chapel in the· new Veterans' Hospital in Indianapolis, Indiana. This was sponsored by Region II under the chairmanship of Marie Rice, who writes the following d escription : "The six new pairs of window draperies for the Chapel harmonize beautifully with the light wood tones of the pews and afford the proper amount of diffused light. In a Chapel of this kind, services are held for all denominations so a set of seasonal dorsal altar draperies, in' four ecclesiastical colors, was also given, to complete the full ritualistic background. To see the Chapel before and after was a revelation. The draperies all added the necessary touch and transformed it into a most attractive and inspiring place for worship." However, a great deal is accomplished on the local level, too. Here is an opportunity not only for chapters, but also for individual members to find "satisfying activity." It isn't necessary to belong to an alumnae chapter in order to p~rti~ipate in the Philanthropic Program. If you hve m an area where there are no other alumnae, give a few hours, perhaps once a month, to the Cancer Society, the R ed Cross, or your local hosp~tal. Thu_s, YOU become a vital part of our Philanthropic Program. To keep our program growing, we need your time and your dollars. We ~btain t~e latter through the Fellowship and Philanthropic Fund. Many college and alumnae chap~ers . have bee.n very prompt in sending their ~ontnbutw~s. Theu cooperation IS greatly appreciated. Lets have a

MAGAZINE AGENCY ESTABLISHED • THE 1952 National'Convention of Alpha Sigma Alpha voted to accept the Fellowship and Philanthropic Committee's recommendation to establish a Magazine Agency as a project to increase contributions to the National Philanthropic Fund. By adopting this type of a project the · Convention made it possible for every Alpha Sigma Alpha, whether or not she is affiliated with a Chapter, to actively participate in our project of giving aid to Veteran's Hospitals. A National Magazine Chairman was appointed and A~A's Magazine Agency was ready to function. Each college and alumnae chapter, upon the appointment of a chapter magazine chairman, ~e came an Agency, authorized to accept subscnptions to any magazine published anywhere in t~e world. It was given authority to make any special offer that was made by any other authorized agency. If there is any magazine requested that is not listed in our magazine guide booklets, send the request to the National Chairman and ~t will be obtained. It is only with the cooperatiOn of everyone that this project can succeed. .. Address all questions and requests for additiOnal information or supplies to the National Magazine Chairman: MRs. A. J.

versrtres in the following states: Indiana, Ohio, Michigan, Wisconsin. A~A's alternate delegate to NPC is our National President, Evelyn G. Bell, who has long been well versed and experienced in NPC and interfraternity matters. The' immediate past Chairman of NPC, Mrs. Edith Crabtree, is now National President of K appa K appa Gamma. Mrs. Crabtree made the following statement at the opening session of the 1951 meeting: "We (the voting body of NPC) are not a legislative body save for the rules which govern ourselves. We may recommend actions to member groups. If the Na tional Presidents by their vote accept these recommendations, then they become binding upon every member of every group, and it is the responsibility on the national organization to see that their members abide by these regulations. It is not the function of NPC. Examples of that sort of recommendation are the agreements which we reached at the 1949 Conference, and also all items of the Panhellenic Compact. . . . NPC is a place for the meeting of minds, for the discussion of our mutual problems, for pooling our resources and ideas. What we do here guides our committees as they function during the biennium and from the exchange of opinion and judgment and thinking h ere we do evolve procedures which may be helpful to the college · campus which wishes to adopt them." The NPC City Panhellenic Committee reported in October, 1952, that there were 181 affiliat ed City Panhellenics and 36 prospective groups. The states with the largest number of affiliated Panhellenics are California with 24 ; Michigan 13; Ohio 12. Cleveland was praised as the only City Panhellenic which reported representation from all 31 NPC member groups. . . . Many A~A alumnae are enjoying membership and assuming responsibilities in various City Panhellenic groups.
TV NEWS AS TOLD TO US • WHEN the usual television viewer in the K ansas City area turns on her set, she hears the station identification , "WDAF Channel 4" but when Wilma Sharp tunes in her beautiful RCA Lindale, she always hears the call letters, " AlA Channel 12,462." That is because h er heart is filled with gra titude to Alpha Sigma Alpha and its thousands of members for their friendship and the many considerations which have come to her through the sorority. The television set presented to Wilma Sharp by 1952 convention goers and other Alpha Sigmas is greatly enjoyed by her and her family . Through the pages of this issue of THE PHOENIX, she has asked us to express to all of her sorority sisters her sincere appreciation and best wishes.
