OMICRON CHAPTER In 1923 four college girls determined to organize a sorority on the campus of Concord College for the purpose of maintaining high moral and social standards for the other v.路omen. These charter members were Bula McNeil, Bertie Moore, Hope Mann, and Hazelteen Powell. Upholding the ideals set forth by Alma Mater, bound in the closest bonds of love and sisterhood, the girls, by careful selection, found themselves growing into quite a promising family . In 1925 the Beta Theta sorority sponsored an intermural basketball tournament, presenting a handsome silver cup to the winner. The cup must be won for three years in order to insure possession. In 1923 the organization set the example for future years by having an annual spring banquet. The custom of an annual homecoming picnic was also inaugurated at the same time. One of the alumnae, in the year of 1926, donated to the sorority a tract of land some four miles from the college. The original plan was to construct here a week-end camp for the Beta Thetas. The girls, however, percieving the need for some recreational opportunities of the local Y. W. C. A., gladly turned over to the group the whole plan. A a consequence, the Y . W . C. A. determined to avail themselves of the offer and carry out the project. The Beta Theta sorority gained the coveted honor of the highest scholastic average in competition with six other Greek organization in 1929 and 1930. They have also the honor of taking the initial st p in rush week.

THE ANCHOR

FRATERNITIES Probably no campus organization can contribute more to the social life of an individual than the Sorority or the Fraternity. It is my conception that membership in a Sorority should be a recognition of superior qualities, and that it should give these qualities greater opportunity for expression. This is made possible by the very nature and purpose of the Sorority-the uniting, socially, of girls having like interests and standards. But too often the Sorority fails in this prime function . It is used to cover a multitude of sins. It frequenty evolves itself into the upholding of a Sorority sister regardless of whether or not she is right. Individual or personal honor comes before Sorority honor, but only in that to have the latter we must have the former. The two are really inseparable, the one bearing on and being constituted of the other. On the whole, however, Sororities have not been misused. They have contributed to the social life of the individual. We all know, probably, of cases wherein a Sorority has forced certain of its members to study and has thus raised the standards of its girls scholastically. Sorority girls often inconvenience themselves for their sisters. It is this spirit of mutual help which should be and usually is found in Sororities, which is the very essence of Sorority life. The fact that some Sororities have failed miserably has caused many schools to unjustly ban Fraternities from their campus. However, such exceptions have fortunately not proven the rul.e. Sororities offer an excellent opportunity for school administrators to direct the social life of women toward higher goals. HELEN DAVIS,

Delta Chapter

ON FRIENDSHIP When one reflects just a bit, he is astonished by the intangible quality . of friendship. There are so many conditions of friendship; yet one knows so well when friendship is, and when it is not present. It isn't going to the same school or the same church; neither is it the things we say nor the things we do that draw friends to us. A friend is someone we are fond of outside all of these things-someone we enjoy being with when there is no entertainment or enjoyment afoot. With our truest and most intimate friends we may shed all artificial barriers custom and convention have established and may become our most natural selves without feeling that the glimpses of our innermost selves will be made commonplace or treated with indifference or worsedisdain, through too little understanding or lack of sympathy. When friendships are real, they are not like silken threads that break with the least bit of opposing force. We must believe in our friends with a firm belief that is impossible to overturn; for trust or confidence is one of the strongest elements of friendship. A friend is someone to whom you may turn with your happiness or your sorrows- someone with whom you can share all your experiences and, being on such a common level of understanding, can experience the same feeling when happiness comes, whether it is your friend's happiness or your own. [ 5]

To me amity is the foundation upon which sorority life is built. We must strive for an even greater firmness of friendship for we know what a brighter, more glorious place this world is, when one is wealthy in rare, true friendships. DoROTHY ALLINGER.

A THOUGHT ON INFORMAL INITIATION Just what and how much should be required of a pledge during her week, ten days, two weeks, or however long it may be, of informal initiation? Should she be reduced to a servant and made to do hard, manual work? Or should she be treated with a little consideration, and left to enjoy her duties? The old idea of expecting pledges to do all that is asked of them in the way of cleaning, dusting, washing, etc., is quite passed out of date. Many of the large fraternities even have abolished their "Hell Week" and are requiring their pledges to learn fraternity and school history instead. It is well that this old idea is changing, because it will prevent many difficulties and problems from arising. A pledge should cultivate respect and admiration for her future sisters. After all, that is the purpose of the period of pledging. Yet informal initiation does more harm to this attitude than can ever be undone. Informal initiation to many pledges means burdensome drudgery, and there are cases where it has developed into actual antagonism and dislike on the part of the pledges toward their future sisters, causing no end of friction and hard feelings throughout the Sorority. What situation could be worse than to have a pledge go through the solemn, beautiful formal initiation service with such wrong feelings? Unusual, perhaps, but it has happened. A Sorority stands for equality, loyalty, love. Then certainly no pledge should ever be made to feel inferior to any of her future sisters; instead, she should be treated with courtesy and kindness, and made to feel perfectly happy in her choice of a Sorority. It is not my intention that informal initiation should be abolished. Not at all; but it does need to be remodeled. The fraternity idea of requiring the learning of fraternity and school history is a good one, and could be adapted successfully. Stunt days (such as a Black Friday), forbidding the use of cosmetics, requiring pledges to address Sorority girls by Miss, sending pledges on errands, and making them do all sorts of silly and nonsensical things is much more fun for everyone concerned. This plan gives no end of room for initiative and individuality to shine out, and it certainly will not bring hard feelings. Let's all try it for a whilegive it a chance, and see if informal initiation i n't a bigger succe s and a happier memory for pledges. \VILMA K. H F E R

IDEAS FOR PARTIES 1. "Collegiate Tea." This is conducted in more of a sport rather than in a formal manner. We found that it was much more informal which made it easier for us to learn to know our rushees better. 2. "Topsy Turvy Party." Which in all reality is only a bridge party done in a backward way. We used postal cards of our campus for tallies. Moving from table to table was done backward. The person with the smallest score got first prize which was of a humorous aspect. This was a grand way to make girls feel at home, and to help Actives get acquainted with the real side of the rushees. 3路 "Mardi Gras" party is a keen way to really enjoy oneself. You can use rainbow colors, dress in costumes, fly balloons, throw confetti and serpentine. For a program, a grand march, old-time square dances and awarding of prizes for best costumes may be used. 4路 An Old-Fashion Southern Dinner Dance is effective. A huge centerpiece of flowers was used and two small log cabins with negro families at each end of the table. The room was decorated with palms and various kinds of flowers. A false porch of a southern home was constructed. From here the orchestra played old fa shion southern pieces. Crocodiles containing negro headed pencils were used for fa vors. An old southern dinner was the menu. Negresses served and received the guests. 5. Let's Go Back to SfJain! Music can easily be chosen for such a dance. Flood lights can be used. Leis were worn by each and all. Programs in the shape of a violin were used . Most any shaped instrument program would work. We just served punch. Decorations suitable for Spain were chosen. 6. Ocean Frolic. The walls were fixed to represent the water sides with li ght green and blue stripes of crepe paper with fishes swimming in and out. Crepe paper of fishes swimming covered pillars with lights in back. Seaweed and ferns hung. Artificial fish ponds were made. Again, with the use of flood lights, we all thought that we were at the bottom of the ocean. During intermission, supper was served. The usual parties were had, but these were different than most. We have thought also of an A. E. T. broadcasting program by using radio programs, favors, and orchestra pitt. This has not been carried out. We thought too about an airplane party, but have not done it.

A PRAYER Dear Father in Heaven, help us to live up to the ideals that we have set for ourselves. Lead and direct us in every task we undertake. Help us to make our union one of which we will be justly proud to claim membership. Teach us to be unselfish and helpful to one another, and bind us together in the true sisterhood of Alpha Sigma Tau. j ESS IE jOHNSTON,

BONES Essay by a School Boy Bones is the lattice work on whitch the body grows. If yo u didn't have sum bones you would be shaped like a custard py. If I didn't have no bones, I wouldn't have so mutch shape as I now have , and I would not have so much motion, and teachers would be pleased, but I like to have motion , 'specially in this pay-as-you-enter suit Ma hired for me. Bones gimme motion, because they are somethin' hard for motion to cling to. If I had no bones, m y brane, lungs, heart and blood would be !yin' around loose in me, all mixed up like the readin' m ater in the paper, and I would get hurted, but now only m y bones get hurted. If my bones w uz stuck together with wire in the right places, it would make a skeletum. I am mighty glad my skeletum was put on the inside before I was finished 'cause it looks better there. If my bones wuz on the outside, an' I fell down, I would brake everything in the plase. Some animals wear their skeletums on the outside. I'm glad I ain't them animals. Onct I went to the sircus and seen a Livin' Skeletum. He looked like his folks didn't keep house but boarded sum plase. If m y bones wuz burned, I should be brittle beca use it would take all the animal out of me. If I was soaked in acid, I should limber. Teacher showed m e a bone th at had been soaked, an d I could bend it. I should rather be soaked than burned. There is a grate menny different kinds of bones. There is the Crazy bone, the Wish bone, the Soup bone, the Trombone, the Bone Spavin, and the Back bone. The backbone is-the backbone is sit-th backbone is situ-the backbone- the backbone is situa-the backbone is sitcher-evated just inside the skin on the other side from the front si de and is filled with rubber. The backbone is made up of bumps, with places in between where the humps is left out. When your skates fly out in front, and you sit down on the ice, one end of the backbone is at the lowest side of the head (if it don't punch up thru ) and the other end is at the upper side of the ice. There is another bone called the Skull. The skull has humps, too. Sometimes there is branes on the inside of the skull. Bones don't grow solid like the limbs on a tree, 'cause they have JOintS. Joints is good things to have in bones. There is a good menny kinds of Joints . They grease themselves and don' t squeak. You can move 'cause yo u have joints. There is a joint th at don't seem like a joint. It is in the skull. It has to be there to occupy the branes and let the head out in t he mornin', 'cause sum men no more in the mornin' than they did the nite before comin' home in the intox-i-cab. The bones that hold your lungs in are called slats. They run around yo u Ea t and West, but girls wear bones running North and South. When bones is ground up fine, they make a good fertilizer. It gives me a lonesome, ca ttered fee l in', and brings tears to my eyes-to think that 1 might be used on a onion patch. --THAT'S ALL--

TWO NOTABLE ART EXHIBITS FROM A DIARY Detroit, Michigan. April 26, 1930. I met Jane at the library today and we decided to take in the American Artists' Exhibit at the Institute across the street. It was a bea utiful afternoon and w e loitered on the steps long enough to notice that a section was being prepared for something or other directl y in front of the building. After some speculation we agreed that some shrubs were destined to bloom in that commanding spot. Imagine our horror when we learned that the poor Th inker is once more to be exposed to the elements. Poor man , trying to think in Detroit's erratic weather! We expected almost anything from the exhibit and I think our expectations were fulfilled. The first room contained a collection of the beloved Robert Henri, who died last year, perhaps the most popular art teacher this country has ever had. The painting that caught our attention first was "Fay Bai nter as the Im age in 'The Willow Tree',"~. striking thing, rich in color and light and shade contrast. Then J ane decided the "Brown-Eyed Boy" was quite worth looking at but I still think " Gypsy with Cigarette" is his next bes t. Of course there were many more of Henri's, but these sta nd out particularly. In the next room was a varied collection. "Six th Avenue and Third Street" by John Sloan was fine for line ; George Bellows' " Dempsey and Firpo" was rather good for movement, but somehow too much of the magazine cover. Speicher's "Fira Barchak" was rather an unusu al portrait, but Jane found the left eye too small and couldn't forget it. We noticed that George Luks' "Pe ter Friese" had man y admirers. Peter looks very capable. The third room was typical of the modern trend , not ultra modern; just 'fashiona bl y' so. There were ga udy things that one didn't look at twice, such as "Hudson River Boat" by Ernest Fiene, and a few of the ultras such as Breckenridge's "Genesis: The Creation of Light," and "Aerona utics." They say if one concentrates long enough, say an hour or two, on this t ype of thing he really begins to m ake it out. However, optical illusions are produced with the same waste of time. We were interested in the skin treatment of the nudes such as Kenneth Hays Millers' and Bernard Karfail. It was unnaturally pink, almost a raw tint . J ane liked Leon Kroll's work, "My Wife's Family" and "Dorshka." Henry L. McFee's still life, "The Branch," was rather rich and Poole's "The Silver Ball" and "Harriet Hoctor" well executed but ordinary. On the whole, I think we were disappointed in the exhibit. The paintings are not of the lasting type. The y seem to strive for the effect rather than the soul or character of the subject. May 6, 1930. Jane and I didn't have classes this morning so we left our books at the library and went over to see the Rembrandt Loan Exhibit. Imagine eighty of the master's paintings brought together at one time right in our own city! There were canvases in good number from each of

THE ANCHOR

the three or four periods of his career- the less subdued, mm1ature style of his earlier or Leyden period (to I 6 3 I), the beautiful light and shade contrasts of the thirties, the more mature, less dramatic style of the for ties, and the spirit ual beauty of t he last period. Rembrandt's deep insight into t he human soul, his beautiful golden browns and warm red tones and his wonderful use of light and shade- before our very eyes, in such quantities! In his earlier period came numerous self portraits, and many of his father. In the first Amsterdam Period (to I 64 I) comes "Saskia as Flora" and "Portrait of an Officer"- strong masses of dark hair, force in every line ! T he fine "Prince Frederick Henry" comes here, many portraits of his sis ter and our own "Portrait of an Old Lady" owned by the Institute. Lovely contrast of light and dark! Pensive old lady, we almost know her. The forties were less dramatic, more mature and serious, a little more restrained. At this time came the exquisite little portraits, "Old Man Facing Right," "Old Man Looking Down," and the matchless "Old Man in Red Cap," considered by many the most beautiful of all. The canvases of the 5o's show greater emotional depth, a resignation, a deep spiritual understanding. Subjects were often religious in character. "The Praying Pilgrim" and "David with the Harp" belong here. What sadness, pathos in the face of David! The expression caught by Rem brandt in a moment perhaps, but he has painted the very soul of the man. "The Lamentation Over Christ" shows an unquestioned faith, a reverence, a human appeal in its tragedy. Mary's face- anxious, suffering, more than human- spiritually human. The later paintings show even greater depth of feeling . Rembrandt's last years were not happy ones. His first wife, Saskia, had died and her children also, except one son, Titus; he had lost his social position, and through financial difficulties, was forced to sell his beautiful home and art collection, and to carry on a small art shop where he sold his paintings for an unbelievably small sum. His work shows the touch of a man who has withdrawn himself from the world. The awful tragedy of "Lucretia" is simply told, a gesture. "Simeon Holding the Christ Child" and "St. Bartholomew" both have an expression about them that is not of this world. Jane and I left the Institute feeling as though we had been worshipping at some unearthly altar. We had- in the temple of the master, built four hundred years ago and still unequalled. DE

A CHUMMY CHAT Howdy! I just simply had to drop in, my dear, and tell you the news. Have you heard about Frances Rose? 'Member she won a set of dishes a while ago? And now, guess what- she just won a cedar chest full of linens. Ain't 'at somepin' ! And speaking of lucky breaks-just think, Lillian Stander and Lela Seabaugh, those bosom friends, have been placed in the same school, and what is more, right next door to each other. Oh, yes, "Sisters together-." Yes, it is a hot day, but Lou drove me over. What, you didn't know Lou Dyer had a car? Oh boy, has she! A Ford roadster-cute and comfy ! And what is more, Marge Howey's also sporting a new buggy. Some class, eh wot ! How's Irma Lappay's car, did you say? Oh, it's full of life and rarin' to go! And Irma? Oh, she's been up in the air! Really! Her boy friend, you know, tested the planes during the Air Show and he couldn't leave Irma out of his sight, so up she went. Sh! I'll say the pledges have been working. You see we hit upon a plan of getting a victrola so we would have music during our lunch hour at school. So two very obedient pledges immediately set out and loc ated this instrument, doing all the janitor's work in the bargain. Oh, yes, of course they installed it. And not on the installment plan-believe me-they did it quickly! You're never home any more either are you? Well, my dear, you must be as busy as we are. Oh, yes, everyone's going to the lake. Such weather demands it. And some of us are going out of town, too. There's Ruth Knisely now who went to Flint for Easter vacation. And Margaret Glew made a trip to Kalamazoo for the model league of nations to help settle grave and weighty problems. And Ann Arbor sure has been honored with our presence. Everyone and her sister has been there lately. And what has Lucile Schulz been doing? Oh, she planned a trip through Tau Beta Settlement House for her Sociology class. A trip and a half, I calls it. No, I'm never able to catch Lou Dyer home either. You know she's the golf bug this season. Well really, dear, I must be getting on, but do drop around some time for another friendly chat.

THE ANCHOR None but educators could really appreciate the spirit that prompted the first party. One and all we agreed that it should be a progressive dinner. (And did we make progress? Ask our Pledges.) We were dashed madly (hungrily (?) ) from olives to chop suey, from chop suey to ice cream. More fun! Then since we'd longed to make juvenile whoopee for years and years, our next affair was a "kid" party. Rompers danced with pigtails and hair ribbons; and pinafores wisecracked with braids and socks. There were stunts performed that night that would have started many a future pupil into a permanent daze. 0, well! There is such a thing as regaining one's dignity . So last, but not least, Theta entertained with a lovely evening bridge. There were slams and slams. But it's all in a bridge game. (Tut Tut!) Then came pledging and our precious " rushees" experienced the joys of having "Superior Sisters" to guide (?) their faltering footsteps. Nor must I forget to mention our spring frolic. Just imagine gorgeously colored lights, sparkling syncopation (the work of big bass and treble men), whirling, happy dancers. Umm-atmosphere plus! That was Theta's spring frolic. Just in case, gentle reader, you have gotten lost away back some place in the first paragraph, just remember that after all this is merely the scribblings of a Theta scribe. MARY ELIZABETH O 'RAE.

THE AN HOR

THE PLEASURE, PANGS AND PROFIT OF ADOPTING AN INFANT After six months of contact with baby Richard I am a firm believer that being an adopted mother is about the nicest thing that could happen to any woman . Nearly a year ago we made application to a local charity organization for the board of an infant. We wanted a very small baby so that we could bring him up in the "way he should go," but fate was against us and now a nine-month-old infant is "bringing us up." Baby Dick, when we brought him home weighed about fifteen pounds and was nine and a half months old. He has very clear white complexion and reddish auburn hair, also the smiling Irish blue eyes to complete the picture. Contrary to popular opinion among my friends we did not choose him from a group of babies. We were told he could be taken out and also that he was deserted by his father before his birth and by his mother at birth. Neither of them has seen him, for which I am thankful for I know if they had, I would never have him now. He. was very weak and could just about hold his head up when we first saw him, for he had never had anyone to play with or cuddle him and was just a poor, lone, starved hospital baby. Since we have him, we have never known a lonesome moment and the months have been punctuated by such events as the first tooth and other succeeding ten each of which we always discovered on holidays, election day, Christmas, New Year's, Washington's and Lincoln's birthdays, etc. Then the joy of seeing him stand alone in his crib, and hearing him say "Ma-ma, da-da-pleasebye-bye" and the usual array of baby prattle, was to be our lot. The pangs connected with our adventure are few. He has been sick very little and with the exception of two nights during a siege of chicken pox we have had only a few sleepless nights. However I still have to conquer my feeling of terror that comes when I hear a bump, a thud and a wild scream, telling me he has made another attempt to walk. At the present time I think the baby himself shows the biggest profit of our adventure. He is happy and active with the fattest red-apple cheeks and laughing eyes, but the cutest dimpled hands that reach down to your very heart and hold it, are what please me most.

Her sister Helen, Mrs. Thomas O'Brien, is the proud mother of a darling curly-haired baby boy, Thom as, Jr.

CO-OPERATION OF A PLEDGE AND AN ACTIVE Xi Chapter of Alpha Sigma Tau has wonderful co-operation between pledges and actives. This fact is due to the sincere, understanding, sympathetic, kind and loving actives. Our actives never ask the impossible, nor do they impose upon us. Their requests are made in such a manner that we, pledges, consider it a privilege to grant them. A pledge must be submissive, but not submissive in the sense that personality is submerged. By submissiveness I mean that a pledge must know her role as a pledge. It is during this period as a pledge that one learns the traditions, standards, and purpose of the sorority. It is also during this period that we come to love Alpha Sigma Tau. ELvA SPANGLER,

HISTORY This seems to have been a wonderful year for Zeta. She has done many things this year that are a credit to her. Zeta's first real affair came on Founder's Day, November 7th, when the entire chapter had a most delightful evening dinner downtown and a bridge party at Mrs. Mac's home afterwards. It proved to be a fine send-off for the year because we Zeta girls have maintained that same enthusiasm throughout the year. The three sororities on our campus-the two others are locals-have been wanting for several years to do something to show the administration here at Lock Haven that we really are co-operating. Our chance came just before Thanksgiving vacation, when Dr. Armstrong, the president of our college, said we might sponsor-all on our own responsibility -an entertainment provided by the Swiss Bell Ringers. It was a novel experience for us and we learned what fun it was to work with girls who are not our sisters. We are hoping to do something 路similar to that again some time. Now, just a bit about our rushing season. It was most successful, we think for we have pledged and initiated fourteen of Lock . Haven's best. Already they are proving themselves worthy by the many executive positions they hold. We held our first rushing party on the evening of December 6. It was a Plantation Party and our President and VicePresident, Sally Wilson and Elizabeth Van Scoyoc, played host and hostess. The entertainment was provided by the old slaves on the plantation. It gave us a splendid opportunity to learn to know the new girls for the party was very informal. Our second and only afternoon party was held at Mrs. Mac's home. It was a very festive affair in the form of a butterfly party. We had butterfly games, butterflies (made from small silk handkerchiefs and long bottles of perfume) for favors, and even ate butterfly salad. It was really one of our loveliest parties. Our formal day began at six o'clock with breakfast downtown and ended at II: 30 with the "Good-Night Ladies" at a formal dinner-dance at a hotel downtown. Our decorations at the banquet were our own yellow tea roses. At the close of the dinner each rushee was given one. The airplane party, our last one, was quite a success for we played airplane games and even ate our lunch in an airship. That finished our rushing season and we began our two-day suspense to see just how successful we had been. We are very happy for we know we have the best. Our new girls finished the year, to date, with a festive evening for those of us who will not be here next year. This has been a happy and successful year for Zeta's, sisters of Alpha Sigma Tau, and we can only say that we sincerely hope that Alpha Sigma Tau has had as successful a year on other campuses as we have had on ours. May you all spend a happy and fruitful summer, is Zeta's wish to her sister chapters. [ 17

WHO'S WHO MARGARET SPOONER Recognizing her ability just before she leaves us to go back to Clearfield, Pa., we pat ourselves on the back for electing Peg as our president for this last semester. And we are not the only ones who appreciate her -Peg is a member of Alpha Zeta Pi, the organization publishing the college newspaper, and also of the Glee Club, which loses one of its soloists when Peg graduates. She has held the secretaryship for the Inter-Sorority Council for '29 and '30. Besides all this, Peg covered herself with laurels in the lead of the Senior Class Play this year. And we might also-just in a whisper-suggest that there is another league on campus of which Peg is one of the two members; but that is entirely private! SARA WILSON This winning personality guided us well during our rushing se~son and all those other important activities of our work and play. The successful record of this season speaks well for Sally's executive ability. But secretary-treasurer-elect for next year. Sally also served for two years on Chi Kappa Sigma, the college dramatic club, acting as business manager of its play for this year and of the Junior Class Play. She is the club's secretary-treasurer-elect for one year. Sally also served for two years on the cabinet of the Y. W. C. A . Sally comes to us from Altoona, P a., with one year more before she receives her B. S. in Secondary Education. MARY WORCESTER "Worcester" dropped in on us from out west of Pittsburgh two years ago. We feel it was a lucky landing-for us, at any rate. During the past year she has been the president of the local chapter of the International Kindergarten Union, one of the larges t clubs in college. Worcester has held the responsible position of meetings chairman on the Y. W. cabinet for '29-'30. Besides this she is an active member of the aturalists Club-she has other interests, too, but he does not belong on the campus, except by adoption. ALICE READ A! is going to be at the helm next fall and she's done so many worthwhile things that we are sure of a banner yea r. She has spe nt two years as one of our members of the Inter-Sorority Council, engineering Alpha Sigma T au's affairs in relation to the other two Sororities on campus. AI is a member of Glee Club and has been President of Alpha Zeta Pi, the college paper st aff, this last semester. Her t alent in writing has not been valued in Times Staff alone, for AI is a member of the Praeco Staffthe coll ege yearbook-as well. Faculty and stude nts alike know and appreciate our AI, for it was she who was chosen from all the girl of the college to at tend th e Student Forum Group that met during Thanksgiving vacation to discuss Pennsylva nia State Teachers' College students' probl ems. Want to know the latest honor? She' the new Y. '\ . pre ident, too. She's our cosmopolit an sister.

OUR SORORITY What has life as Sorority sisters meant to us who this year became members of the Zeta Chapter of the Alpha Sigma Tau? We could never have realized just how deep and sincere Sorority life is. The girl who is fortunate enough to enjoy this fraternal life in college find s that something, without which her school year would be mere bookish years with no fuller enrichment of friendships. Sorority friendship~ have meant much to those girls who have just come into Zeta Chapter. We would sacrifice anything for our sister:;. Since the girls are realizing what it really means they have the interest s of every girl at heart. We are trying to maintain those standards set up for us, and make our girls outstanding in scholarship and leadership. We feel that we have been bound together as sisters. There is no club in the college of which at least one of our sisters is not a member. Although we shall lose many valuable leaders by graduation, some of our girls have already become outstanding in our college life: Kathryn Wagner, a Junior member, is Vice -President of the Junior Class. Kitten has been an active worker, and with her help our class has been very successful. The Junior Prom was the most enjoyable social function of the year. We are proud to have Kitten as a sister, and know that she wi ll be even more valuable next year. On the Y . W. C. A. Cabinet are Charlotte Caldwell, who is Chairman of the Religious Meetings' Committee, and Dorothy Drake, who is Chairman of the Poster Committee. We are glad to say that our girls are so active in Y. W. work since it is the largest organization in our College. Lock Haven State Teachers' College is essentially a school for Primary and Kindergarten Teachers. The retiring president of the college chapter of 路 the Association of Childhood Education, Mary Worcester, leaves her duties in the hands of Dorothy Palmer, another of our sisters of whom we are justly proud. Mary has proved to be an excellent officer, and we are sure that Dot will be just as efficient in carrying on her work. We wish her lots of success. In the organization, Gertrude Marks is treasurer. Gertrude has been one of our most faithful Junior members. All of us have learned to look to her as a leader. As chairman of our social committee, she has been a success. In the Art Club we h ave Betty Fullmer, Eleanor Millet: and Betty Kell. In the Shakespeare Literary Society we have Mildred Allen and Kathryn Wagner, Charlotte Caldwell, Cathryn Hardy and Betty Kell belong to Price Literary Society. Betty Fullmer and Dot Drake play in the college orchestra. Dot is also a member of the Naturalist Club. Edith Furst is a member of the College Times staff (Alpha Zeta Pi) and Betty Kell is a m ember of Chi Kappa Sigma, the Dramatic Club. WHAT ALPHA SIGMA TAU MEANS TO ME A Chest of friendships Sealed by the bonds of fraternal love Trustworthy unto Death. FLORENCE KEYSER.

OUR PAST YEAR The ship, Xi, launched forth late last fall and it has been sa ilin g onward to a definite goal ever since. We called, "ship ahoy," when we had open house October 29 . I t was at the home of our dear patroness, Mrs. Richard Aspinall. W e had representations from the sororities and fraternities as well as the facult y members. Gold and emerald sherbet , golden cookies with an em erald Alpha Sigma Tau insignia, constituted the refreshments. Mrs. Aspinall poured, thereby highly honoring us. The guests were entertained by Cathryne Aspinall, who played the piano and sang. From there we sailed on and paused to hold pledging services for Velma Allison and Ruby Davis. Later we initiated them. On we sailed until we anchored again, and for a very good reason. At the home of Eleanor Miller we pledged fifteen of the finest sailors to sail Xi onward to greater and finer ports. A few months rolled on and meanwhile every sailor on deck toiled unceasingly for the annual Traditional Yellow Rose Formal. April I 2, we saw the completion of our plans. Xi sailors and their guest were ushered into a yellow rose garden, a moon hanging low and a fountain spraying the early spring blossoms of the season. In keeping with the scene, Mildred Le Masters and Louetta MacDonald sang "Moonlight and Roses." Now we have on more port-the Black Friday Mock Initiation on May 30, and the final initiation June I, for our merry sailors of Xi. Our year's work will soon be complete. Some of our sister sailors will go forth into the world inculcated with the ideals of Alpha Sigma Tau, and others will remain with Xi to teach others the ideals of Alpha Sigma Tau. VIRGINIA NIGRO, Xi.

CLIPPINGS How swiftly the year has flown. Time has a fleeting foot. It was only a year ago that we bade farewell to those dear Alpha Sigma Tau sisters who went forth to take their places in the world. Occasionally we receive messages from them telling us of their work and always their undying expression of love for Alpha Sigma Tau. From Annie Allisandro we learn that she is teaching school in Pueblo. That she enjoys her work we are assured for she always says she "loves it." Georgia Clark resides in Denver, perfectly happy in doing household duties and delighting her husband with her excellent culinary accomplishments. Mild, Mildred Gadd from Crowley has announced to us that Cupid has paid her a visit and left her a sparkling ring to wear on her left hand. At the present time she is teaching in Fowler. ( 2 I ]

Maybelle Johnson from Penrose has received a v1s1t also from the delightful little fellow and she is teaching at Stone City. At Aspen, Jean Mcintosh teaches and revels with her books while Grace Ogle, whose home is in Denver but teaches in Delta, paid us a visit when we held our Traditional Yellow Rose Formal. Eva Paradiso from Pueblo is at home and is kept busy attending the social functions. Ada Platt, president of last year's Xi Chapter, is teaching mathematics in the McCook, Nebraska , High School. Gentle Irene Sly who hails from Nucla is teaching in Elba this year. Sophie Prukop teaches at Paragon although her home is in Cortez. She did her share in making our Formal a success and honored us by attending it. Hilda Besse, who was pledged to Alpha Sigma Tau last year, is now teaching in Cimmarron. We have two other girls whom we pledged this yea r but who are not with us. Lula Troth from Agate is at home recovering from a severe illness. The other is Elizabeth Spillman from Norwood and is now teaching at Dave Creek. This constitutes our lis t of girls who are out in the field teachin g and striving ever to glorify the name of Alpha Sigma Tau. VIRGINIA NIGRO.

MY SISTERS Upon what topc could I be more eloquent or more sincere-as I lie here in bed with a crippled foot? None. But for m y Sisterswhat would I do without their loving kindness, their sweet thoughtfulness, and the cheery companionship the y offer me as I lie here almost helpless. Never before has the true meaning of sorority, sisterhood, or Sisters been so brought home to me; and I feel awed and humbled, yet happy and gratified- as though in the presence of a Divine Spirit. But isn't it a Divine Spirit, after all-that spirit of unselfish and loving giving? I think it is. Nothing, to me, has been more beautiful, nor more heart stirring th an these sisters as they come in and out of m y roori1, always with some little gift, some cheerful word, happy smile, or good news. Truly, God must have been in a happy, tender mood when He created girls such as these-girls who have true womanly tenderne , and who, in time of need , are comforting and kind, and h ave given real meaning to the word, "Sister." It is in circumstances such as these, and with such examples before us, when one wonders to oneself: Can I-Have !-measured up to these standards et? Am I a real sister? Or is it just a name I bear? Ever will I be grateful to Alpha Sigma Tau-dear isterhood-for what it ha th us taught me: that I have man y wonderful and real si rer , thou ah our parent are not the same. God help me to be a real i ter in return; it i the finest, the highest desire a true Alpha igma Tau o-irl .111 haY EL r, [ 22 ]

You can borrow your sisters' best evening dress when you go out with your S. P. (Secret Passion) . You can discuss in private, the big bunch of hams that belong to the other Sororities. You can borrow the last buck from your sister and promise to pay it back in the morning, knowing that your check from home will not be here for a week. You can wear your sisters' silk hose, undies, or anything that does not have a spike through it. You can eat the last chocolate in the house without a qualm of conscience. You can partake freely of that box from home; it does not matter whether the owner gets any or not. You can go out with the keen man your sister is that way about. You don't have to study for the Profs that are your sisters. You can attend the big show-out of the year, providing somebody else has the sponduliks. If you get up early enough you can be the best dressed girl in school. You can break into any room in the house, at any time, and demand that your sister help you in the subject that you are flunking in. You won't need to buy any books; use your sister's. She probably won't mind, and if she does? You can call in the girls from downstairs and play bridge in the room that three other sisters are trying to study in; it helps them to keep their m ind on their work. You can get your sister's mail and forget to give it to her for a week. You can take your vacation in the summer by sponging a week on each sister without wearing the "L" out of welcome.

A TRIP On the second day of June, 1929, my cousin, my roommate, and I started our long drive to spend "June Week" in Annapolis. We left my home in Waynesburg, Pennsylvania, in our chevy, at six o'clock in the morning, laden with suit cases, lunch boxes, dress boxes, and every other suitable thing we could manage to crowd in the limited space. Anyone who has ever been over the mountains would enjoy our trip and appreciate the beauty of nature all along the Alleghanies. Mountain after mountain our chevy climbed, and each one seemed more beautiful when the summit was reached. At noon we stopped for a half hour to !;!at lunch, and while loitering for a few minutes before journeying onward, we climbed several steep steps to the top of a tower, to look down upon five states. By five o'clock we were on the last lap- between Baltimore and Annapolis. We were quite anxious to arrive at our destination, so to help pass the minutes more quickly we started to count the cars we passed. You m ay be sure we soon tired of this, since there are hundreds and hundreds of cars from every state in the union traveling all the time. At six o'clock we had arrived at the Y. W., registered, and washedall ready to meet my brother, who is a Junior in the Academy, and two of his friends . Th at evening we walked over to the Naval Academy to 6troll around the grounds, which were more beautiful and well-kept than any we had ever seen. Monday morning we arose to go over to the Academy to watch the boys drill. In the latter part of the morning, the boys took us through all the buildings and pointed out the most interesting facts of everything we saw. Bancroft Hall itself is an immense, stately building, all marble floors, enormous rooms on the first floor, mostly used for official business rooms. It houses eighteen hundred (I 8oo!) midshipmen. That afternoon we saw one of the most thrillin g scenes anyone could ever wish to view- the dress parade! Every midshipman, marching in time in his particular company, and all dressed in white uniforms, and carrying their bayonets, marched on the athletic field, to be put throu gh drills by the clear ~ c all in g and strong voice of the companies' leaders. ot one boy was out of step, and the seriousness of the whole affair cert ainly to uched the hearts of all the mothers-sisters-sweethearts-and friends of each and everyone of them. Tuesday we arose bright and early to do a little shopping and odd chores before goi ng over to meet the boys . Of course we had to see all the quaint little shops and go through the capitol building. When we were walking along the Severn River bank we were surprised to see actresses and actors before a camera, doing one thing one way, the same thing another way, etc., only to be directed in the end to do that very amc thing again differently by the insistent directors ! " The Salute ' wa being filmed. That afternoon five of us went out on a motorbo:tt to ee the b:tttlehip which the boys were to leave on on the coming Frida ' 路 It was quite intere ting to be shown through :til part of the hip, :tnd to be r . lly t ld [ z6 ]

what all the devices on it were used for, as in our general knowledge of ships we would undoubtedly never really understand the "whys" and "wherefores!" The Youngster Hop was held that night in the gymnasium. Each class has to be satisfied with whatever building they chance to get for their particular dance, because three or four dances are all held the same evening. And this year, when we again take the trip, we won't go to the Youngster Hop, but to the Ring Dance, an honor only the second classmen (third year men) may have. After a wonderful evening spent in dancing we were ready for a good night's rest. The following evening we went to the June Ball, the big event of the year. It is held in the armory, a mammoth hall, decorated . with avy flags and navy colors, blue and gold. 路Dim lights, gorgeous evening dresses, the Navy's " full-dress," all painting a beautiful pi~ture for both young and old, m ade us stop to realize what the United States Naval Academy was making of our future officers. We were among them, thrilled with the beauty of it all-and shoulder to shoulder with midshipmen who smiled at us and thought what little we realized, as citizens, what high ideals and honors they were bestowing upon us. On June 6 at ro:3o o'clock, the graduation exercises of the midshipmen were held. Oh, how proud the mothers and fathers of those graduates must have been! And with no little wonder, either, when one stops to realize what graduating from a Government School such as that in Annapolis means to a boy. The Secretary of the Navy gave the address. Friday morning the first and third year boys left on their cruise to southern European waters, while the second year boys stayed to take summer aviation at the academy. At noon we left the quaint little t own of Annapolis and drove to Washington, D. C. After registering at the Capitol Hotel, we went to see a show, but we couldn' t remember much about it for our minds were still on the past events of "June Week" in Annapolis. Saturday morning we took tours through the capitol building, the mint, the White House, and several other important hi storical build ings of the city. In the afternoon we took a tour to Mt. Vernon where we were shown through Washington's former home, and around the beautifully kept gardens. The following day we drove to York, Pennsylvania, and on Monday we drove through the battlefield at Gettysburg, one of the most memorable sites of the Civil War. The return trip to Waynesburg was made on a different route, the William Penn Highway, and new and interesting scenery greeted us as we drove over the miles and miles of country. We arrived home that evening, happy, contented, and very much thrilled with the events of the past ten days, only to begin looking forward anxiously to another similar trip the following year.

RIBBON SERVICE The Ribbon Service of the Sigma Chapter of A. E. T. was held March 23. All the pledges received cute little invitations to the tea and ribbon service at the home of Agnes Isaacson. Nine pledges received their gold and emerald ribbon which they were all very glad to wear. This occasion was the first meeting of the pledges with the Active girls and it was a most delightful one which the pledges will never forget.

PIN PLEDGING On the 13th of April Pin Pledging was held at the home of Katherine Fed in Lockport. After the nine pledges had received their pins which they were proud to have and wear. A lovely supper was served. At this meeting Virginia Nesselbeck composed a new song which is to be sung at the annual Panhellenic Sing in May. The pledges enjoyed their pledge days and appreciated all the nice things the Active Chapter members did to make them happy and accustomed to Sorority activities. HELEN SuE REYNOLDS,

BLACK FRIDAY All Black Friday to me was a fear. I had been warned of its coming but never let once to know what I would receive. Not being familiar with it I expected it to be a lot worse; my only good thought was after Black Friday my pledging days were over and I would be a full fledged member and true sister of Alpha Sigma Tau. I didn't do what I should have done on Black Friday but I suffered; oh, how I suffered. My pride was completely squelched; my honor dishonored; my word thrown to the winds; my affections trampled on; my generosity picked on; my humility increased; my embarrassment uplifted; my looks ridiculed; my face washed; my clothes spurned; my adornments removed and my position nothing as well as carrying out the little duty of carrying the famous color of emerald with me for three days.

SORORITY SISTERS EVERYWHERE The Eta Chapter enters its name in the Anchor this year bigger and better than ever. Here at Kent State College the Eta girls have creditably upheld the standards and ideals of Alpha Sigma Tau. We are proud to tell our friends that during this year we have added seventeen more actives and three pledges, as this goes to press. Our first " Rush" party was held at the Elks Home here in Kent. The party was well attended and, according to comments, thoroughly enjoyed. At the close of the "Rush" season the rough initiation was held at Beckwith's Cabin, March first . Here the pledges committed themselves to little that was sense but much that was nonsense. Then on March second, formal initiation was held at the home of one of our patron~ and patronesses, Mr. and Mrs. R. E. Manchester. At this time the seventeen girls who were initiated into the sorority were : Martha Baumberger, Kent; Helen Bunn, Mansfield; Edna Eaton, Niles; Evelyn Haase, Akron; Dorothy Lewis, Stow; Ro Mayne McGrath, Kent ; Maxine Moore, Kent; Edith Oliver, Tallmadge; Marguerite Oyler, Cleveland; Clara Raby, Loudenville; Margaret Roberts, Toronto ; Kathryn Schaab, Youngstown; Ruth Shively, Rogers; Katherine Smith, Kent; Marion Snow, Youngstown; Leota Stanley, Cleveland; and Elizabeth Williams, Niles. Our second "Rush" party was given in the form of a breakfast at the Robinhood. O ver our waffles and coffee our girls had a delightful, informal time. As this season closed, three new pledges were taken in. The pledge initiation followed the formal initiation of the seventeen girls at the Manches ter home. The three pledges are : Blanche Hillman, Youngstown; Alice Regan, Youngstown; Mildred Pyle, Kent. Socially, our chapter has also been active. Our big event outside of our formal was a " Ballroom Dance" which we joined with one of the fraternities in giving. We now look forward to the date of our spring formal. In conclusion we w ish to say that this year's business has been well guided by the eight actives of last year. They are: Helen Jenkins, President; Catherine Conroy, Vice-President; Dorothy Stadler, Corresponding Secretary and Chaplain; Margaret Stiles, Ashtabula, Recording Secretary; Helen Pritchard, Treasurer; Thelma Brezger, Anne Chetde, and Agnes Kaley. The Eta Chapter now wishes every other chapter success and hopes to send the "Anchor" an equally good report next year. MILDRED PYLE,

We brighten up the school rooms, And make them quite the cheer rooms; We work and slave from morn till night, Have nothing left but our appetites. Listen now and hear The happenings of the year. It gives us great pleasure to state that our society representative, Agnes Black, is Vice-President of the Youngstown Educational PanHellenic. We are happy to have Helen Mick, an Alpha Sigma Tau of Miami University, with us. Helen has been teaching in Struthers all winter. Summer seekers of higher learning are Esther Farrelly, Dorothy Schaffer, and Frances Owens. The three musketeers plan to attend Ohio State. Speaking of teaching, Florence Keyser has been notified that her application for State Life Certificate has been accepted . . . . Now ain' t that somethin'? The engagement of Virginia Fenton to Clingan Jackson has been announced in sorority circles. All the luck in the world, Ginny. The girls of Eta have been coaxing Mary Dickson Dunn to bring the only male member of Eta Alumnae with her to sorority meeting. lmagine his embarrassment. Violet Thornquist Da vis declares there's nothing like cooking for your husband. Can we depend on that, Vi? Elizabeth Schrader, Marian Heyer, Helen Lauser, Catherine McSweney, Caroline Phillips, and Olive Riley declare there's nothing like teaching. So there you are. Elizabeth Beynon, Evelyn Williams, Sally Peoples, Thelma Young, and Eleanor O'Malley say that it isn't their fault if the up and coming generation "don' t know nuthin' ." Nevertheless, teaching agrees with them. And now, how come I by all this information? Well, here my dears, is the inspiration . . . On one Saturday of every month. The Alumnae all meet at a lunch, And there around a table square Plan and discuss our Chapter affairs.

1 oo6 Constitution Emporia, K ansas May 10, 1930.

Dear Alpha Tau Sisters: The second semester is just about to a close and everyone is studying in earnest, especially the pledges who are looking forward to initiation. We have a fine bunch of pled ges this semester. They are Etta Marie Crow, Garden City, Kan.; Florence Lindburg, Osage City; Juanita Collins, Wellsville; Nell Castle, Admire; Viva Castle, Admire; Lois Beck, Larned; Mae Patterson, Rozel; Twila and Vyolette Parker, Dod ge City; Mary Johnson, Bushong, and Maxine Lawrence, Lyons. We have had several parties this semester. Our Valentine party was held at the Memorial Union Ballroom on the campus and was a big success. The good music and beautiful ballroom at the Country Club made our pledge party a great success. Our formal was given at the Memorial Union Ballroom. Could you only have been there and enjoyed dancing to the music of the Ye llowjackets, Teachers' College dance orchestra, and to get one of the favors, which was a deck of cards in a green leather case with our crest in gold, you would have been as thrilled as we were. We are proud to tell you that Isobel Peters was initi ated into Pi Kappa Delta, national honorary forensics fraternity . Evelyn Johnson was elected treasurer of Belles Lettres Literary Society for the coming year. New officers for the coming year are Ruth Ellen Huffman, president; Gwendolyn Killion, vice-president ; Lois Beck, treasurer; Louise Garnett, recording secretary; Evelyn Johnson, corresponding secretary; Mae Patterson , house manager; and Lois Beck, rush captain. Sunday, May 4, we had our annua l Mothers' Day dinner at Rorabaugh-Paxton tea room . We had a wonderful time visiting with the mothers. We are planning on having a farewell party before we all go home, but no definite plans h ave yet been made. We were proud to see six of our girls weanng caps an d <>owns in the senior recognition service May 7, 1930. These girls are Otha Thurman , Kiowa; Inez Boy, Raymond; Merle Bidwell, Parsons; Gwen doh n Killion, Garden City; Lucille Ahlstrom, Reading, and Th lma aund ~ Burlin g ton. \'\fe hope that all of you have had a happy and uc es ful rear a loT A CHAPTER

JOT A'S LITTLE BOY "You Ought to Know Iota 's Little Boy." Red-headed Inez Boy is the "life of the party" and the joy of the house. We hate to see her leave, for we've grown to love her dearly. You'll be surprised to know she looks almost dignified in her cap and gown. SHE'S TRULY BLOND Gentlemen prefer Alpha Johnsmeyer. She's really th at type. She plans to teach school next year and we know her pupils cannot help loving her as we do for her sweet, industrious character. SHE MAKES US PRETTY Kathryn Ikerd worked with all our unruly locks in an effort to make us look as nice as she did. But it takes more than well arranged hair to give one the sweet, thou ghtful look we see in her dear eyes as she smiles. SHE LIKES TO TALK And because of this, Isobel Peters is wearing a Pi Kappa Delta key attached to her Alpha Tau pin. She has had to work quite hard and finds it necessary to teach next year, but we are planning that she shall come back after that and do more for the Iota Chapter.

SPORTSMANSHIP To me the combination of loya lty, fairness, truthfulness, friendliness, patience, courage, persistence, endurance; in fact, every virtue that society prizes, is the ideal of sportsmanship in sorority life-sportsmanship engraved in golden letters. Sportsmanship is a matter of fair pla y. Fairness to one sister deserves fairness to another. One-sided sportsmanship ends in enmity; but sportsmanship between friends or enemies savors of everlasting mercy. In Alpha Sigma Tau, the sisters bind their hearts in loya lty, courage, and love, and harmony rules unchallenged. Sportsmanship speaks for itelf. It is the kindred spirit of fair play ; discre tion and consideration -consideration for one dearly beloved sister, consideration for the other. Alpha Sigma Tau Sorority is built upon ideals and principles. When these are broken, fellowship is killed, and sportsmanship ceases. IDA E OSLEY. Xi Chapter. [ 35]

t. . . ::::. . . . . .~. ~. ~. ~. ~. .~. . . . . .::::::. . . J Things have happened so fast this year, that, when we stop to look back on them we are all rather amazed at their array. First and most important of all-we acquired one new and perfectly scrumptuous faculty advisor in Mrs. Ethel Kirby of Teachers' College. You really should know her to appreciate her excellent qualities. Suffice it to say we can always depend on her to give us some good suggestions and sincere support, for anything we undertake to do. Secondly, we acquired another charming patroness, Mrs. Butterweck, wife of Dr. Butterweck of Teachers' College. Mrs. Butterweck has attended practically all of our social affairs this year, much to our joy. Our Sorority season was opened with the formal initiation of Dorothy Hoyle and Evelyn Maguire at the home of Elinore De Cou. Afterwards, to celebrate, we rolled up the rugs and danced, then ate simply heaps of sweet pickles and candy, sandwiches and whatnot. Almost immediately after that the rushing season for Freshmen opened. Our first party, a very informal gathering, had the outward appearance of a country fair, with much balloons, lollypops and barnyard decorations. If one may judge by the noise and enthusiasm evidenced, everybody must have had a good time. The second rush party was formal so we donned our best evening frocks and took our guests to dinner at a quaint little inn in old Philadelphia, "The Blue Lantern," then to see "The Little Show," where we laughed with Fred Allen and enjoyed Libby Holman's famous "Can't We Be Friends." We endured the customary week of suspense after the last rush party and were well rewarded for our patience as witness our membership roll to which we have added the names of Dorothy Kitsch and Anna Chalmers. Chronologically the next event was the formal All-Sorority Party given by all the faculty advisors. Of this affair you will hear later. Feeling that our finances were running dangerously low we made plans for and carried through a very successful candy and cake sale and a bridge party. We find these affairs so satisfactory! Not only do we have "gobs" of fun giving them but when they are over we come out forty or forty~five dollars richer. By April 28th our pledges had served their time of probation so we gave them formal initiation at 4 o'clock of the afternoon, then took them to dine and dance at the Hotel Walton. I know I needn't tell you how much the girls enjoyed that! Our semester is practically over and finals are near enough to make us feel uncomfortable, but we still have two "big dates" to keep before we separate for the summer. One is the annual Panhellenic Ball, held this year on May 9th, and the second is a House Party which our Alumnae

is planning for us, for May I 7th and I 8th, when we can have one last fling together- and then vacation! Anne Warren surprised us all last Easter by announcing her engagement. She is the first of our group to wear an engagement ring, so naturally we're all "awfully" thrilled about it. We feel our year has been a very profitable and enjoyable one and we hope yours has been as nice. Here's to vacation! May yours be of the best and happiest! MARY QuiNN.

OUR PANHELLENIC PARTY On Friday, March 28, there was held in the Carnell Auditorium at Temple University a novel affair, which, we are told, is to become an annu al event. This party was given by the faculty advisors of the eleven campus Sororities, for the members of these Sororities, and since we have never heard of a similar affair, we thought the rest of you might like to hear about it. The real event of the evening was a kind of pageant. On the stage was a chorus, composed of three girls from each Sorority, who, during the previous weeks, had learned to sin g one song belonging to each Sorority. Ten new songs for each girl to learn! One girl from each Sorority was dressed in a gown, of her Sorority's colors, which was in vogue in the year in which her Sorority was founded, and carried a bouquet of the Sorority's flowers . She entered the room from the rear, walked up on the stage, followed by two of her sisters who carried the banner, stood while the chorus sa ng her Sorority's song, then, in a few words, told which group she represented, the date it was founded, etc. , and left the stage. The girls carrying the banners formed a line of banners at the sides of the room, after they left the stage. Lambda Chapter not only had the distinction of being the oldest group on the campus, and hence being the first to appear in the pageant, but our gown was easily the most attractive one displayed-and maybe Mary Quinn didn't look adorable in it! It was a beautiful green taffeta, made a Ia I898, and she carried a grogeous bouquet of yellow roses. We are sending you a picture. We know you'll love it. After the pageant we had some other entertainment in the form of dances, by members of the physical education Sororities, then dancing, and reireshm ents. Of course, the entire party was formal, and the girls did look lovely in their pretty gowns. It was a most successful affair, enjoyed by everyone, and did a great deal toward establishing a spirit of cooperation, which i necessary among the Sororities on any campus. MABEL L. ScHREIBER,

HAZEL PLATT-There would be no doubt as to the outcome of a beauty contest in which Hazel Platt was entered. The way she keeps track of these red-headed men is somp'n.

NoRA MouLTON- This preceding incident of her better half afforded a great deal of amusement for our successful little heart - breaker. However, upon being reminded of her exciting engagement with a certain handsome, henna -haired hero, who even caused her to discourse upon his idiosyncracies while slumbering, turned the comedy into a tragedy. ELEANOR STREIFF-Sweet Innocence who is always saying on Sunday nite, "Who'll take my date? Somebody, please, I don't want to go." BuRNADINE WoMACK- What I want to know is this, "What can you do if you're boy friend doesn' t know my boy friend? Why couldn't you introduce your friend to mine first?"

OUTSTANDING NU'S \'V'hen Alberta donned her cap and gown the N u Chapter of Alpha Sigma Tau felt that it was indeed loosing one of its most outstanding and beloved members. She has been a faithful pres ident and we feel that she has done much to promote a friendly and co-operative attitude among our girls. To her we extend all good wishes for future success and happiness. Although Virgie has not been among us very long she has won her way into our hearts with her cheerful disposition, and friendly interest in making Alpha Sigma Tau one of the outstanding Sororities on the C. T. C. campus. May her future hold as much happiness as she is leaving behind in the hearts of her sisters. When the National Tau Kappa Lambda, honorary forensic fraternity, met at \'V'ichita, Kansas , for the 8th biennial convention, April 16, 1930, the u Chapter was represented by Laura Mae Wible. Laura Mae is a very active member of Tau Kappa Lambda and upholds her school in both debate and oratory. Although she did not reach the final contest she made a good record by reaching the semi-finals. The "Nu" Chapter is proud of her.

PANHELLENIC AT C. T. C. \'V' e f eel that the Panhellenic organization on our Campus has done much to promote the friendly spirit which exists between our Sororities. The organization is composed of two representatives of the six national and four local Sororities on the Campus. There is no prejudice or distinction shown, and the girls are always liberal and just in their discussiOns. A scholarship cup, which is owned by Panhellenic, is awarded each quarter to the Sorority having the highest scholastic standing; this cup is presented in such a manner that no hard feelings is created among the organizations. Panhellenic sponsors a number of social affairs and entertains the National Sorority officers who find it possible to visit our college. We have found our Panhellenic helpful in many ways and we sincerely hope that the other Chapters of Alpha Sigma Tau have derived as much benefit from their organization as we have. [ 43 ]

"MOTHERS' DAY" IN THE NU CHAPTER The Nu Girls have set aside Mothers' Day each year for the Annual "Mother and Daughters' Tea" which unites its mothers and girls in a closer union, and promotes a better appreciation and understanding of one another. This year on May I I, a program was given by the girls for the mothers, which was very much in keeping with "Mothers' Day." The decoration of the house was carried out in purple and white, lilacs of this color were scattered profusely about. After the tea there was a meeting of the "Mothers' Club," which was founded last year on "Mothers' Day." They felt the need of forming this club to give them a better appreciation of the true meaning of the Sorority, and a more sympathetic attitude toward the activities which the girls carry on. The Nu girls appreciate the co-operation and friendliness that these mothers have shown and we hope that they will derive a great deal of enjoyment from their "Mothers of A. S. T. Club."

LOTS OF TALENT IN NU CHAPTER Every year our Booster's Club entertains for three nights with "The Boosters' Vaudeville." Every organization is given a chance to enter an act for try-outs. From twenty-eight entries, fourteen acts were chosen. The act of Nu Chapter was "Russian Scenes." The proper atmosphere was created by the preliminary singing of a lovely winter song. As the curtain slowly rose, a huge silver moon was seen shinning down upon a sparkling blue and silver sleigh containing four jolly maidens. The sleigh was drawn by four frisky black and white ponies. Snowbanks and frosted twigs formed the background. The ponies did a dance of vigorous prancing, pawing and galloping steps. The jolly maidens did a skater's dance, and ending it by calling in a Cossack, who did a Cossack dance. The finale consisted of both the ponies and the jolly maidens in a dance and a chorus. Our act was given third place by the judges. We were the only Greek organization who placed. For the two years that we have been on this campus, our act has been chosen for "Boosters' Vaudeville." Our success this year was largely due to Elizabeth Carroll who skillfully and patiently directed the act. ALBERTA To-. Er D [ 44 ]

Picture the girls-to-be-pledged poured or squeezed into their last summer white dresses, with countenances as chalky as the whitest dress collected in a room anxiously awaiting the summons to enter. At last the summons comes to enter that closed door, that is if O].!r trembling knees will carry us. What lies behind that door! ? ! ? Well that's over. It wasn't so bad; in fact, it was a very pretty service, though quite short. On this occasion, we get our green-yellow bows which announces to the entire public that we are Alpha Sigma Tau pledges. Next we get our pages of Do's and Don't-mostly don't. Such remarks as these are heard from the protesting pledges, "Oh, I can't wear my hair behind my ears. Look how big they are! You should see me without powder and make up; I look like death itself. Imagine calling all these kids Miss. Clear down to the library entrance every time we enter or leave the building? I'll never get to classes on time. Breakfast every morning at 7 o'clock! Gosh, that means I'll have to get up at 6, e, etc., far into the night! If you have been through it all, you know the varied and numerous tasks one has to do. If you haven't, I don't want to spoil it for you. Please don't misunderstand me. I'm not complaining. It's lots of fun. Just a word- beware of black marks! I almost forgot to mention Black Day. We dressed entirely in black (about a dozen people asked me if I was in mourning) including our sheer, ribbed, lisle gymnasium hose. Tightly clutched in the hands of the mourners were large white paper bags. Upon investigation one found these contained candy and chewing gum for sisters. This same day we had an appoint~ent to meet at one o'clock. We were obliged to line up Sing-Sing style and run around fifteen trees on the campus, beginning at one side and ending up on the other side, repeat [ 45 ]

everything the leader said clear down the line, and report to a committee all remarks passed during the Marathon. I neglected to mention that the snow was nice and slushy, the ground soft and damp. Fortunately we have strong constitutions. There were no pneumonia cases. Frivolity came to an end, temporarily. Tuesday, March 8, the pledging service was held. It was solemn and very pretty. Aha! a note from the Alpha Sigma Tau secretary. Be at the gym 6 : 30 Saturday morning. Brin g a cup, spoon, and newspaper. \Vear boots and heavy coats. As you may guess, it is mock initiation. Saturday morning: It was my lot to carry the bananas, twelve pounds of them. If you have never carried twelve pounds of bananas for at least ten miles, tr y it. I guarantee you that yo u will be able to carry anything after that. If your muscles are not sore your money will be refunded. Have you ever hunted lambs in a graveyard? I thought surely they would be sheep before I found any. Don't ever bother going out for cross-country hiking to reduce or for any other reason. Just join a sorority and hunt lambs in a cemetery. With many more such side excursions, we reached our destination, Rustic Lodge. It is located ordinarily a half hour's walk from the school. Under the existing conditions, it seemed much further. Mind you I was still carrying r 2 pounds of bananas. The purpose of this outing is breakfast and fun . We all flopped down for a good rest. What disillusioned pledges we really were! There is no rest for pledges. Set the table, help with the fire, get some water, and butter the rolls. Breakfast was good. The menu consisted of oranges and bananas, eggs, bacon, rolls and coffee. After breakfast we had a stunt by the dumb pledges. They thought the stunt was a gooder. The sisters were made fish of. Full particulars will be sent in plain wrapper upon request. Next the brilliant sisters-to-be performed. All pledges were blindfolded. We were forced to walk across a rushing torrent on a log, climb a mountain, jump off a cliff and walk a narrow ledge on top of a sky craper. These were on ly a few of the things we were forced to do. Please keep in mind that we were blindfolded all this time. In order t o gt back to our eight o'clock classes we ran at least a mile. The pledging days are brought to a clo e. The pledging days are over, They are gone, they are gone. The pledging days are over, they are gone. Alpha Sigma Taus are we, All in one fraternityThe pled gin g day are over, They are gone, gone, gone.

A LIFE OF A PLEDGE Mine not to reason why, mine but to do or die, and three cheers for dear old Shiwash is the life of a pledge to any fraternity and to Alpha Sigma Tau in particular. The pledge is given an opportunity to familiarize herself with many fields of work as she acts as a waitress, chore girl, writer, singer, decorator, and seamstress. Nothing is too hard or impossible for a pledge to accomplish. Oh, it's hard when there are long lessons to prepare and when just in the midst of them a familiar voice is heard commanding some task to be done. All her work must be forgotten as she must fulfill the wishes of her superior sisters. No longer is her time her own-it must be devoted to the members of the fraternity to which she has pledged 路 herself. The pledge is constantly lowering herself to a mere nothing, bowing and calling the members "Miss," abiding faithfully by the pledge rules, and listening to each member make her an inferior being. But outside of the grief, it is a wonderful life-this life of a pledge. So come on with the grief. I can, will, and enjoy undertaking it for you, dear sisters of Alpha Sigma Tau, and I am willing to let the rest of the world roll by as I sing in the rain. HELEN GEE, Theta Pledge.

BEING A PLEDGE FOR ALPHA CHAPTER Being a pledge begins ever so pleasantly! We come in like the proverbial lion and become and continue to be a meek lamb. Alpha's spring rushing party was a formal dinner at which the rushees were treated to a lovely meal, bridge, flattering introductions, and roses. This delightful affair was followed by ribbon pledging for eight of us; again we were made happy with dainty emerald and gold ribbons , gay chatter, music and candy. We departed feeling quite important and ever so delighted to have reached the stage of a sub-pledge. Pin pledging was beautiful and impressive, but after the ceremony was over there was a sinister touch to the atmosphere, and the more observing of us noticed a foreboding gleam in the eyes of several Alpha Sigs. All too soon our worst fears were realized and we were informed in solemn tones that henceforward our only means of ingress and egress to and from Alpha Sigma Tau house was to be by means of the back door; that we were to use only the floor as a place to repose our wormlike persons; that we were to learn and recite when asked a certain belittling verse; and that we were to appear for duty at the hours between four and six every day at the house! To show that some crumbs of kindness would be granted us, we were allowed to sit on the floor and gratefully partake of ice cream by means of knives; and later we were given kind permission to wash the dishes. Our lowly estate is still upon us-we are cringingly performing obnoxious tasks and blindly struggling toward the light in the distanceAlpha Sigma Tau membership. ALPHA CHAPTER PLEDGE.

HOW IT FEELS TO BE A PLEDGE When I was asked to become a pledge of Alpha Sigma Tau, I could not keep back the tears of happiness. The actives were all so kind and made me feel that they were going to do all they could to make my college life a pleasure instead of a drugdery. The pledging services were so impressive and meant so, so much to me. The new pledge pins had not yet arrived when we were pledged. How worried I felt for fear they would not arrive before I returned to my home for Christmas vacation! I just couldn't go home without mme. "Oh, Marion! Where are you?' I recognized Sarah's voice and knew that the pledge pins had come. I answered her and she came down to the laundry room with the pins in her hand. She handed me one, wished me a "Merry Christmas" and dashed on to find another pledge. I felt so proud when I went home displaying my new pledge pin! It signified the part of college that meant most to me. When I came back after Chritmas, I began getting better acquainted with the girls I had not known so well. At first, I felt quite bashful before the actives; they always seemed so far above. As I became better acquainted with each one, that feeling left me. The little pledge duties were the most fun. One which I recall was that each pledge must carry chewing gum for the actives. One of the actives refused a stick of perfectly good Black Jack! I've often wondered just how many spats that would mean. In conclusion, I think it is a wonderful feeling to be a pledge. It means so much to a girl and instils in her heart a deeper sense of duty, a finer quality of love for her sorority sisters of Alpha Sigma Tau.

PLEDGESHIP " Pledges on that phone!" Do this and do that. Thus goes the same old refrain day after day in a Sorority House. These little orders are all in the life of a pledge, and as such should be taken in good sportsmanship. If an active asks a pledge to do something, it is not a personal insult but just part of the game. There are certain ideas and ideals one is supposed to conform to in order to be accepted as a bona-fide member of a Sorority group. Maybe one thinks the Actives go about it in a funny way to attain these sometimes, but after all they are the best judges of that. Often they do these seemingly inexplicable and unreasonable things in order to test character, disposition, reliability, and other such desirable attributes. In all probability they may be ju t as di appointed in a promising person who proves to take an aggres ive attitude and refuses to co-operate as that same person is in finding out what i expected of her. Fortunately, however, the majority of those who pledge :t ororit ' realize what it mean and do their part with the right attitude mot f the time. They can take con ohtion in thinking-"ÂŁ erybod ha it t g through with." At any nte, Alpha Tau pledges feel that wa ' ab ut it, don't they? o here' for more and better pled e t T.-for th ' will make the Activ f the future. . K. [ 48 ]

WHAT A PLEDGE THINKS OF HER SORORITY I'm only a pledge, butyou know , sometimes, even a pledge Can be serious, and they do have feelin gsAnd this one has a huge feeling Desiring to be expressed. Sorority life-what it means t o me! I'm only a pledge, butIt's living a life of loveI mean the kind in which there may be found Self -sacrifice; It 's happiness-helpin g others to be happy; It's a life of glorious giving-andReceiving; Of complete understanding And eternal friendship.

PLEDGE DAYS AT SIGMA The days when we may read only notices with the unpretentious and belittling inscription "specks" are gone. Not, however, that they have not left memories behind them. Dodging around corners to evade some embarrassing errand is no longer necessary. But still, in all, there was a secret joy in being ordered about and such menial t asks as putting a new screw or a new piece of elastic in the Sorority box or washing the windows were really done with pride and an unrevealed (to be sure!) happiness. Long-winded compositions exploiting our own personal merits or on "Why I am I," were demanded, and, in most cases received. For those who dared to not comply "Black Friday" was in the offing. Jokes and fudge are two things every Alpha Sigma T au initiate should know how to make, due to adequate experience. As to writing songs, some of our members became expert and ready to run Greig (or Ukele Ike) a close second. And, finally, came Blac k Friday! Our si ns hung heavily over our heads. They were made plain to us in no uncertain manner, and, insofar as possible, atoned for. For those refusing to wear their hair parted in the middle, black dress, shoes and stock ings and no cosmetics, there were such punishments as crubbed faces, ruined waves and bare legs, to say nothing of the reduction to an atom of one's ego. However, we're on top now , too, and glad for the honor and great fun of having been pledges to Alpha Sigma Tau. MARGARET

Active: " Little, ignorant pollywoggle, I will deign to cast my shell-like ear in your direction and listen to your plea for mercy. "You wish one more day of grace? Then will you willingly polish my dainty slippers, wash m y webby hose, and go on any errands I desire? "Yea, will you even this night hie you down to 'Bratton's Sweete Shoppe' in the village bel ow, and slip past the eagle eye of the Night Watchman with one toasted chee e sandwich garnished plentifully with fresh potato flakes and divine dill pickles? " Promise that; and I give you an evening of grace before 'Black Frida .' Do you solemnly swear by all you hold acred that ou shall do a I say? "Go then , my chi ld ; I allow you one more date." ELL
