Southeastern Loztisiana .College zn its 40th Year

• • •

SOUTHEASTERN Louisiana College, founded as Hammond Junior College in 1925, this year completes its fortieth year. It has been conferring undergraduate degrees since 1939, based on four-year curricula in the liberal arts, teacher education, business administration, music, the social sciences, and health and physical education. The College is a regional center of learning and culture, but has gained national recognition in several fields, such as music. As a state-supported institution of higher learning, it seeks to meet its responsibilities in two ways: first, by establishing a broad academic program on both the undergraduate and graduate levels for students of diverse in terests; and secondly, by rendering varied services to the community, schools and educational organizations and groups within its geographical locale. General purposes of Southeastern include for all students the following: 1) to provide in its offerings in the humanities, biological sciences, physical sciences and social sciences a strong foundation in general education, in order to insure breadth of kno\ ledge in areas outside the field of specializa ti on; 2) to provide areas of specialization in order to give dep th of knowledge in the field of concentration and to insure excellence in the performance of its graduates in both professional and graduate schools and in their (Continued 011 Cot'Cr III)

Books for Children

-;:-Adapte~ from an article by f ARY C. Runu. Two .'fV. Y Authors Put cience on Fir t Grad Level, m the B路uffalo Cour-ier E:rpre .

From classroom experience a need was seen for informative books on a first grade level ... today's children, heavily exposed to T.V., are fascinated with the world.

Two

enterprising school teachers, Janet La Spisa Bartlett and Marilyn Olear Helmrath, recent members of the Buffalo Alumnae Chapter, have written a series of children's books that put young readers into their rightful era-the space age. Both former first grade teachers in the West Seneca, New York schools, Janet and Marilyn have produced a six-volume series on pudgy-faced, pink-cheeked Bobby Bea1路. The series has been published by the Oddo Publishing Company of Mankato, Minnesota. Oddo's staff artist, Marilue, peopled the books with colorful illustrations of Bobby Bear's friends, Little Hare, Robin , Red Squirrel and Brown Bird.

Mother Bear quiets Bobby and Little Hare by telling them of "All the work that / Little bees must do." Earlier Bobby was stung by a bee he tried to catch for a pet, and Bobby decided that he didn't like bees after all . The story ends happily: "If I go out And I see a bee, Will she come And put a stinger in me? " "No, no," said Mother Bear. "Let her be. She is making honey For you and me."

"A mother bee In the htve is the queen. She lays eqgs And is not seen. " The little bees Must work tn the htve. They do not oo out To work and o dtve.

The books are written in rhyming couplets:

"Here we go To have some fun. Now blast

aff,

Three . . . two

one."

And the stories have a first grade vocabulary of 100 words. Throughout the series Bobby Bear investigates the fascinating worlds of science and nature as he learns about bees, spring, Halloween, maple sugar and fishing. And he takes a rocket ride to learn about the planets. ANCHOR

FROM

Bobby B ear's H allowee n,

The first book was written as a project for a postgraduate reading course Janet and Marilyn took in the summer of 1959 at the University of Wisconsin, Milwaukee. "That was the year of satellites and rockets," Marilyn says. "The news was full of space achievements and a big push began to introduce science into the lower grades." "vVe 1.'Ilew fr om our classroom experience that there was a need for informative books on the fir st grade level," Janet says. "First graders know about rockets, they know the names of the different stages and the names of the asb·onauts." Educators are beginning to realize that today's children, heavily exposed to television, have b ecome fascinated with the world about them. Marilyn and Janet found in their teaching that if classwork deals with science, the accepted fir t grade attention span of 20 minutes can be doubled or even tripled.

"We also wanted books that would be of more interest to boys, who are sometimes slower readers than girls," Janet explains. "Jane's activities aren't what boys want to read about." The authors developed the story plots first, worked the tales into rhymes and finally reduced the rhymes to the 100-word vocabulary. Of course, research was necessary. Thus, before writing Bobby Bear Finds Maple Sugm路 they visited a maple sugar farm .

FROM

Bob by B ear in the Spring,

"But now Bobby, Look at everythino. it 1s pretty. It is splino."

Marilyn and Janet believe that the books will also be useful in kindergarten classes, and for slow reading second and third grade students. Today neither are certain in whose mind Bobby Bear was born , but it seemed appropriate to send him on a rocket ride. They both worked on th e couplets and Janet did the initial illush路ations. Their summer school instructor thought the finished manuscript good enough for publication. But getting Bobby Bear published wasn't easy. Three publishers turn ed them down; in 1961 they met Dr. William E. Jones, principal of Lancaster's Hillview Elementary School, who brought the book Bobby Bear's Rocket Ride to the attention of Oddo Publishing. Last F ebruary the

girls received a contract and a request for five more Bobby Bears to make a series . In the meantime both had married. Marilyn became Mrs. William G. Helmrath and has a son, Billy. And Janet married Edward A. Bartlett, and has a daughter, Kimberly. They had until July, 1964, to complete Bobby Bear Finds Maple Sugar, Bobby Bear's Halloween, Bobby Bear in the Spring and Bobby Bear and the Bees. To meet this deadline they worked almost every week night for some months. Fortunately they lived within a block of each other, though the H elmraths have since moved into a new home.

The authors became friends during their undergraduate days at State University College in Buffalo, and postgraduate days at the State University of New York. Mrs. Bartlett, Buffalo Alumnae's historian in 1963-64, taught first grade at West Seneca's Bellwood School; Mrs. Helmrath taught first grade at Winchester School in West Seneca. Though now devoting full time to their families , Marilyn and Janet are already working on ideas for another set of children's books they hope to see in print. ;\.

ORA SYMPHONY NORS MRS. STACKHOUSE CERT PROGRAM

THE AURORA Community Symphony Orchestra, Aurora, Co l orado, presented a memorial concert for Mrs. Florenell Kruse Stackhouse, u, on January 24, 1965. Mrs. Stackhouse was a kindergarten and music teacher in Aurora from 1958 to 1964, and a member of the Symphony Orchestra. Her interest in music and children was recognized by all who kn ew her, and last summer she organized and directed the Aurora Children's Chorus. F lorenell graduated from Aurora High School in 1951, majored in music at Colorado State College and was a violin student of Henry Ginsberg. A major interest was Girl Scouting, in which she achieved the Curved Bar rank. And she was active in

The Symphony Orchestra, organized under the sponsorship of the Aurora Recreation Department and in its second season, was directed by Stanley Stahl in Schumann's "Nocturne," icoli's "Overture to The Merry Wives of Windsor," Chopin's "Concerto in E Minor for Piano and Orchesb路a, First Movement," and Schubert's "Symphony #5 Bb Major." Guest soloist for the afternoon concert was Miss Joan Karrer, 17, a senior at South D enver High School and an outstanding young pianist.

St. Louis Alpha Sigma Tau, Lillian J7ogt Schippers, Publishes First Children's Books

ur own Lillian Vogt Schippers, whose talent we know is digging out and presenting educational theories, is proving to fellow educators that she is fast becoming an authority on the controversial subject of "just how to teach those six-year-olds to read." Lillian is going beyond theory; she is directing a program to teach junior and senior high school students to read better and faster. And, in being so close to the "how" of reading, Lillian is superbly qualified to

encourage them "what" to read. She has recently finished writing a series of eight books designed to lead children into reading all eight independently by the end of their first semester. The first four will be published by the State Publishing Company this spring. (And we can't wait to see them, Lillian. ) The titles are Bluebell, the Sk路u nk; Edwin, the Ostrich; Melvin, the Bashful Gimffe; and Kumbu, the Crocodile. Lillian obtained her A. B. from Harris Teachers College, St. Louis, and taught a few years at the Long, Irving and Ames Elementary schools. A red-letter date came in 1944 when Lillian married Dr. Parry Schippers, a St. Louis dentist. Parry has enlivened and stimulated Lillian's postive "you can do it" outlook. And Parry heartily approves her intellectual pursuits which now benefit all her associates. Lillian worked in the South Grand Reading Clinic, and then returned to her school to organize classroom reading programs and a remedial reading plan with coordinated testing. 路 She obtained an M. A. degree from Washington University in 1955 in English and Education, and since has taken work in psychometrics and administration. Lillian holds a life certificate in elementary administration. She became Reading Supervisor for the Affton School District in 1959 where sh has coordinated the reading program in the

elementary and junior high schools, and was instrumental in setting up a summer program at the senior high school in reading improvement and speed reading. In 1964 Lillian also assumed the supervision of the language arts in the elementary schools, which includes reading, oral and written language, spelling and handwriting. In this connection she has been working on curriculum construction, and is presently engaged in a research project under the auspices of St. Louis University in developing criteria for written expression which will eventually result in a scale similar to a handwriting scale. Her duties also include group and individual testing. Lillian has served as corresponding secretary of Pi Chapter, President of the St. Louis Alumnae and has been a member of the ational Council since 1947, acting as editor of THE ANCHOR for seven years, then as Southwestern District President, and presently as National Expansion Director, an office she has held since 1956. Nine chapters have b een added to Alpha Sigma Tau since 1958: Alpha Zeta, Alpha Eta, Alpha Theta, Alpha Iota, Alpha Kappa, Alpha Mu, Alpha Nu, Alpha Omega and Alpha Xi (our newest addition at Mansfield, Pennsylvania). Besides Alpha Sigma Tau, Lillian b elongs to the National Education Association, the Missouri State Teachers Association, the St. Louis County Teachers Association, the Affton Teachers Association in which group she has worked on the Teachers' Welfare Committee and is presently chairing the Constitution Committee, the National Council of Teachers of English, the ANCHOR

International Reading Association and th e College Club of St. Louis. H er name has been included in Who's Who of American Women, Who's Who in the Midwest and the Dictionary of International Biography. Lillian's hobbies include traveling, and she has traveled extensively in the United States, Canada, the Caribbean and Europe; antique collecting; and writing for children. t

More about the Schippers' books: Mrs. Schippers says of her books: "Most first grade library books on the market cannot be read by the children until near the end of the year . . . My books can be read by the children themselves by the end of the first half year ... "These books have been tried on average children, revised, tried again, etc. until they can be read by these children independently. Trlmy experience I have found that publishers say their books are first grade level, which means that they appeal to the interests of first grade children, but does not mean that the children themselves can read them . My books are written in the form of pre-primers with the repetition of words. This aids the child in reading as he is not yet ready to have many different words presented in a line or on a page-as yet too many different words present too many different problems to be solved all at once. The distinctive feature is the introduction of needed words to tell the story by means of labelled pictures." WATCH FOR THE 1965 FALL ANCHOR AND ITS FEATURE ON MRS. SCHIPPERS ' BOOKS.

GRADUATE OPPORTUNITIES INTERNSHIPS & ASSISTANTSHIPS AT INDIANA UNIVERSITY:

GRADUATE internships in student personnel administration and resident assistantships for graduate students in other academic areas are available at Indiana University. Graduate students holding these positions become members of the Dean of Students staff, work as members of a Residence Hall Center staff and serve as advisers to living units of 60 students. Majors in student personnel working for masters' degrees have the opportunity during the second year of their internship to serve as assistant head counselors and to secure additional practical experience in specialized personnel areas. Provisions can be made for a program of one year and two summers, but one should plan on two years. Positions carrying additional responsibilities are available to doctoral candidates with previous experi" ence. Positions provide room, board and r emission of out-of-state fees. Additional cash stipends are based upon responsibilities assumed. The total cash value of the assistantship for master's degree candidates varies from $1,100 to $2,000, and for doctoral candidates from $2,000 to $6,000. Applications should be filed as early as possible. Appointments will be made between April 1 and June 1. For further information and applications write Dr. Elizabeth A. Greenleaf, Director, Residence Halls Counseling and Activities, Maxwell Hall, Room 254, Indiana University, Bloomington, Indiana 47405. 10

uate Resident Assistantships in conjunction with a two-year Work-Study program in Student Personnel Work through the D epartments of Psychology and Education. Recipients of assistantships live and work with students as residence hall assistants, group advisers and counselors, and work approximately 20 hours per week under supervision of the directors of residence and the student personnel staff. The academic program, leading to M.A. or Ph.D. degrees, requires from 45 to 55 quarter hours for the master's and 90 hours beyond the master's for the doctorate. A thesis or dissertation is required. The student may register for a maximum of 12 hours each quarter. Appointees who major in acad emic fi elds other than psychology or education must include in their schedule over a twoyear period 15 quarter hours of prescribed courses related to work with students. Recipients will receive room, board and $95 a month during the first year-the equivalent of a graduate assistantship; and room, board and $120 a month during the second year-equivalent of a teaching assistantship. Students pay in-state fees of $125 a quarter. Out-of-state fees are waived . For further information write Dr. Maude A. Stewart, Professor of Psychology and Director of the Graduate Resident Program, 333 Arps Hall, The Ohio State University, 1945 orth High Street, Columbus, Ohio 43210.

The theme of the mixer was the traditional "New Student Daze." Homecoming activities also kept us busy. Although we didn't place in the Chick Relays, Cookie Collins was first in the football kick. As the overall theme of Homecoming was "Great Moments in History," we chose "Our First Flag" as th e title for our float. Next on our fall calendar was rush , which we highlighted with a Hawaiian Luau. Everyone wore a Hawaiian costume and orchids were given to the rushees. The Ypsilanti-Ann Arbor Alumnae Chapt e r furnished exotic Hawaiian food and decm路ations. We cannot thank them enough for their cooperation. Rush was very successful for we took seven wonderful pledges. Founders' D ay was celebrated with a luncheon at the Inn America. Mrs. J. B. Carpenter, our Alumnae representative, spoke about A~T after graduation . The ANCHOR

afternoon closed with th e Candlelighting Service and a picture-taking session. Sherry Baker, Kathi Bolden, Shari Hahilton, Beth Hartley, Missy Morris, Barb Peploski and Ann Rasmussen were initiated on January 16. Barb Peploski was pledge president and Beth Hartley was chosen "Best Pledge." After initiation we wen t to the home of Pixie Jakob where Mrs. Jakob served a delicious lunch in honor of our new Sisters. We ended the aftern oon with a rousing rendition of the newly written pledge song and folk songs with guitar accompaniment.

Chrisbnas really kept us busy. First was the party with the Alumnae Chapter at the home of Mrs. R. G. Parker. We were given a very practical and much needed filing cabinet. We were extremely happy to receive this useful gift which is so typical of the help and cooperation we can count on from the Alumnae Chapter. A pizza party preceded caroling at Beyer Hospital and at the home of our former advisor, Mrs. R. B. Bates. We sang with our brothers, Sigma Tau Gamma, in the annual Christmas Sing. ancy Overly, Music Chairman, did a great job of directing us in "The Little Drummer Boy." We also trimmed the tree in the University Library. We are proud to announce that we won first place in both sorority volleyball and badminton. We will receive trophies for these sports. The next competition is basketball and we will try for first.

The end of the semester was somewhat saddened by the Senior Farewell for Mary Carevic, Joyce Golding and Kathy Vollic. We wish them the best of luck in the future. - CAROLYN KRAMER

Beta has a tragic beginning, a successful ending: THE fall semester welcomed we Betas back to a refurbished house. All we had to do was put on the finishing touches. The new wallpaper and newly done furniture put us in a bright mood. However, our spirits were dampened by the death of one of our Sisters, Stephanie Treat. Stevie succumbed ANCHOR

to a bronchial asthmatic attack. Her death was such a shock, we were in no mood to go through rush nor Homecoming festivities. Mter a week of mourning, we decided to continue with our plans. Rush proved very successful - and rush indeed it was combined with preparation for Homecoming. The efforts were great in results as we took 10 new pledges. They were Karen Christenson, Sherrie Cogsley, Leslie Thomas, Reggie Necefer, Dee Upton, Sue Jackson, Paula Harrison, Jennie Heusted and Amy Draper. During Homecoming we worked with the men of Delta Sigma Phi. Our candidate, Leah Saunders, was chosen by the student body to be a member of the Homecoming Court. With the fastidious work of Homecoming and rush finished the Betas settled down for a well-deserved rest. But the rest did not last long. Halloween brought us back to our feet again - planning a costume party for the neighborhood and faculty children. The party was fun for all, the Sisters as well as the youngsters were there in costumes ranging from ghosts to witches.

With the semester near its end and finals ready to begin, Betas nestled down to do some serious studying- with fond memories of a successful semester. When the new semester comes, we will be ready to go again. - ARLENE GROCE

Dad's Weekend was next on the social calendar. The dads started arriving on Saturday afternoon. Daughters tr eat e d them to an afternoon on the campus, and then they went to the house for dinner and entertainment. The joyous evening ended with dancing. We enjoyed several dessert-mixers with the campus fraternities. We had these mixers with the men of Phi Kappa Tau, Theta Chi and Sigma Tau Gamma. With the men of Sigma Phi Epsilon, we had a scrumptious Christmas dinner. Before Christmas vacation, Betas also serenaded our patronesses with Christmas carols. This same night, we sang carols to the patients at a local rest home as a part of our expanding social service program. Right after vacation we decided to go through open rush. We took two more happy pledges, Jane Dunsford and Nancy Redmond, which brings our new Sisters to 12 for this semester. ANCHOR

A BEAUTIFULLY constructed eagle, complete with a moving head and flapping wings, brought Deltas a handsome first place trophy. Entitled "Wings of Freedom," the float was in competition with many other campus Greeks and clubs in the Homecoming parade theme "Symbols of Freedom." The eagle was done in shades of gold, brown, scarlet and white crepe-paper. The bird rested upon an unfurled scroll of white and gold. The scroll, in turn, was on a bed of deep blue. Red , white, blue and

a shield of stars and stripes decorated the vehicle pulling the float. Without Ruth Wilson, Chairman, and Peg Byers, Co-Chairman, we couldn't have done it. A breakfast and an evening banquet for Alumnae, members and families were included in our Homecoming activities. Homecoming was just part of a wonderful fall for D elta. When we came back to school, we were very pleased to congratulate our Advisor, Mrs . Donald B. Shank, for being presented the Helen R. Garman Advisors' Award at rational Convention. Karen Ruffo, a junior, was Homecoming Queen candidate for her class . Another Sister, Mimma Vogel, repre ented the Sorority in a Winter Sports Queen Contest. More honors came to Delta when three of our Sisters were chosen to compete in the R.O.T.C. Queen Selection . Peg Byers represented the Art Department; Connie Hoffman, the Home Economics Department; and Jo Ann Start, the Sorority. Connie was one of the four queen finalists , and Jo Ann was chosen to be a Kaydeen. All of the Sisters took part in numerous campus activities, including the Theta Chi Run-a-thon, to raise money for a ige1ian village. Rush parties were a whirl of fun this semester. We began with a native-flavored Tahitian theme. Cardboard palm trees made an effective background for native-costumed Taus and rushees. Paper animals "climbed" streamers to the ceiling. "Sleepy-Tau H eaven" was the name of one of our favorite parties. Taus and rushees dressed appropriately in pretty nightshirts and carried their favorite soft toys. Soft, blue lighting created a dreamy atmosphere. Each rushee was asked to tell her favorite bedtim e st01y. Juice and doughnuts were served. Cut-off blue jeans with patches, plaid shirts, pigtails and fake freckles were the most popular attire for our "Ho-Down" party. Hay covered the floor. Sisters Panda Kulkhe and Patsy Radu entertained with folk songs. We were rewa rded with six lovely pledg-

es: Jill Gercken, Susan Hazen, Patty Howell, Linda Rago, Alice Majocha and Carol Wiley. They presented a special pledge dance, Pumpkin Patch Party, at the College Lodge. Decorations in autumn golds, oranges and browns included comstalks and pumpkins. Our favors wooden clothesbrushes with AlT monogram, were popular with our dates. We celebrated Founders' Day with a delicious banquet at the L ewis Tea Room. It was such a thrill to welcome Zeta Chapter to our campus for a visit. Our day of sisterhood included a football game, sightseeing and dinner. We are looking forward to many more visits. The decoraj:ing of our new Sorority room is nearing completion. We have bought new furniture, and have had storage units and walnut paneling installed. We hope our bright new d ecor will be the background for a successful spring semester. JoA QUIST

Carol Tobias, Zeta's President, caught in a unguarded moment.

At the Homecoming football game we heard the announcement that Alpha Sigma Tau Sorority had won the Scholarship Cup. This means that we had the highest sorority average for last year. The day rush activities were to officially open, we received the tragic news that our Panhellenic Council President had died as a result of' injuries received in an automobile accident. Out of respect for her, our rush period was postponed for two weeks. Though our rush activities were sadly dampened, we were proud and pleased to pledge six girls. They are Betsy Bagshaw, Nancy Chisholm, Peggy Good, Trudy Gummo, Margie Logan and Sue VanZant. Zeta Chapter was honored with a visit from a group of g~rl s from Mansfield State College who have been interested , for some time, in forming a chapter of Alpha Sigma Tau Sorority. Due to many setbacks from various sources they had not yet been able to do so. Then some weeks later we received a telegram from them stating that they could begin pledging activities immediately. We were just as happy as they were with the news. Our Chapter is proud to announce that its two representatives to the "Miss Tiadaghton" Pageant in Williamsport, Pennsylvania, came back with honors. Marni ANCHOR

Clauser was chosen "Miss Tiadaghton" and will go to the "Miss Pennsylvania" Pageant this spring. Diane Cohick was "Miss ongeniality." We had a "sho shine day" for our mon ey-making project. We shined sho s and wash ed sneakers for anybody on campus. It was hard work but we had a lot of fun making it a success. (We are planning another one for spring semester!) Our Founders' Day Banquet was held at the Village Tea Hoom in Williamsport, Pennsylvania. This occasion always serv s as an even greater inspiration to carry on the h路aditions of Alpha Sigma Tau. The pledges entertained the Sisters at a Christmas party entitled "Christmas in Hawaii." Dressed in th e Polynesian fashion everyon e was drap ed with leis as he entered. After the entertainmen t and refreshments we exchanged gifts. This was th e last tim e we met before going home for Christmas vacation. As finals and semester vacation draw

Rho names new co-sponsor. RusH season opened at Southeastern State College with the Panhellenic reception at which the Alpha Taus of Rho Chapter presented a skit depicting the "typical college freshman" and her "reawakening" as she encounters the college man. Then came the rush party. The theme was "Alpine Stopover." Members wore green shorts and white knee sox, and each member and rushee was presented with a pair of yellow suspenders. Rouge was generously applied to our cheeks to lend the effect of exposure to the elements. We all gathered round the fireside to sing, with our cider mugs raised high. The success of the party was evidenced in our enthusiastic pledge class which included Jo Lynn Brandenburg, Glenda Dollarhide, Betty Ford, Susan Linney, Nathalia orthcutt, Linda Zavodny and Caroline Pate. 路 The pledges worked hard to raise money to take the members to Hot Springs, Arkansas, on the pledge sneak.

The main projects now facing us are freshman rush and Spring Formal. As we look back over the past two semesters at our goals and accomplishments, we truly feel the bonds of Sisterhood. We look forward to 1965 with high hopes, and wish the best of all to our Sisters.- PAM ARM-

Phi scores another semester: more work; more fun. As PHI Chapter looked around the room at their first meeting, we realized that there were many empty seats. Half of the Sisters had graduated last year. ow we had a big job ahead- the job of selecting fine girls to have as pledges. "Formal Tea" was September 20. It was a big success, and because of the new rushees manual that the Alpha Sigma Tau representative helped put out during the summer, the rushees were well informed on each sorority. Alpha Sigma Tau's first party was a "Sinner's Party" at which members dressed as their favorite sinner. It was fun and our fraternity brothers helped serve Devil's Food Cake, Deviled Ham sandwiches and Hawaiian Punch. September 24, brought the rushees a "Circus Party." Each member dressed as a circus performer or animal. There were hotdogs, cookies, candied apples and pink lemonade. We were very proud to have Aleen Mansour of Hammond, Louisiana, and Barbara

Wood of Bogalusa, Louisiana, as our first pledges that week. Later the following week, pledges were Phyllis Perrin, Sue Roberts, Brenda Williamson and Hilda Allred. ovember 3, Phi Chapter celebrated with its Founders' Day Banquet. Several Sisters spoke on "What Can I Do For My Country?" We sisters benefited from the speeches on this subject. At the banquet the award for the most outstanding advisor, which had been given to President Sara Sims at the summer Convention to present to Miss Margaret Lowe, advisor at Southeastern Louisiana College, was then presented. Awarded to Miss Cheryl Jolivette was a desk pen set for outstanding editorship. Throughout the year Alpha Sigma Taus ate supper together in the college dining hall before each meeting, December 11, the Alpha Sigma Taus and Sigma Taus had 路a joint party. The turnout was good and everyone had a swell time. December 15, the girls were invited to Mrs. Nesom's house for a lovely Christmas Party. Hot chocolate, mixed nuts, spreads, potato chips, mints and cookies were served. The pledges did a short skit and later gifts were passed. January 19, a "Pizza Party" was given for Ruth Ann Wallace, the only gradANCHOR

uate that semester. We were invited to ~rs. Joseph Zaleski's (Alumnae representative ) for the occasion . Names in the Phi Chapter news this year were Ruth Ann Wallace, Sweetheart in the Homecoming parade; Wanda Smith, Sweetheart of Gleeners Club; Miss Marvel La Cox, now Mrs. Marvel Johnson; Miss Antoinette Gicone, now Mrs. Antoinette Terral; Cheryl Jolivette, award for editorship . As the Sisters take time to look back they realize the work that had to be done in order to have fun , but they enjoyed working and playing together. We are already looking foward to the next semester.- PHYLus M. HoRN

Chi sees honor-filled 25th Anniversary. FRoM its first meeting Chi Chapter learned of one of the many honors to be given our Sorority in our silver anniversary year. Sherry Anne Shirley had been chosen first runner-up in the Convention Queen Contest, and Chi's brought home five music awards. These were the first in a long chain of memorable events. Early in November two Chi members, Ann Brodt and Carole Rachelle, served as princesses in a court of five at Shepherd's Homecoming, while Sister Betsy Sherrer received the queenship. At this time Chi held a Homecoming tea which was well attended by members and Alumnae. Bustling with school spirit even before Homecoming, we made many posters and signs boosting our team and other school activities. Our rush party, "It's a mad, mad madras world," brought us six new pledges who are now initiated members. They are Jo Coleman, Jean Crawford, Joy Hunt, CaroANCHOR

lyn Myers, Janet Redmiles and Carol Skinner. Every member wore some sort of madras; then, followin g songs, we viewed the latest madras fashion show (written b y Pat Snell ) which would have surprised even the manufacturers. Favors were tiny pennants of green and yellow, and hot dogs and cokes were served. Our Founders' Day Banquet was at Shady Rest Restaurant, and the Christm as holiday found us at our advisor's, Dr. Sara Cree, house for another warm get-together and exchange of gifts. For the preceding two weeks each girl had received a small gift a day from her "secret elf." Each girl had drawn for their "elf," and, at th e party, each "elf" was disclosed and another, fin al gift given. A Christmas basket of food was sent to a needy family. This semester two girls, Lynn Cooney and Betsy Wysong, were made McMurran Scholars, the highest scholastic award given at Shepherd . Four Chi's, Marsha Clark, Patti Kave, Judy Auvil and Sherry Shirley were listed in Who's Who in American Colleges and Universities. Anne W ilt was selected (last summer ) as West Virginia Winner in Home Economics for the ationa} 4-H Club Congress in Chicago. The cheerleading squad still includes four Alphas, Betsy Sherrer, Barbara Pownell, Patti Kave and Cheryl Shank. Selected to Kappa Delta Pi were Barbara Pownell, Lynn Cooney, Patti Kave, and Betsy Wysong. Alpha Robby Hutchinson played Alizon in Christopher Fry's, The Lady's Not For Burning. Barbara Maxwell was elected State Corresponding Secretary and Treasurer of the West Virginia Student Education Association . Recently another Chi, Ginny Mininger, r eceived the honor of being selected Sweetheart of Phi Sigma Epsilon. Closing this good semester Chi's are now planning the approaching Greek Rush Party; and, we, with A~T love, extend "thanks" to our wonderful advisor, Dr. Cree, for her help and understanding this semester as well as for all the other semesters these past 25 years.- JEANIE KrrCHE 33

New Psi pl edges stand behind "Welcome Sisters."

拢LCDI"\E S/STERS uA 1路 Psi says "it's great to be!" "IT's GREAT to Be an A~T": The Psi Chapter made this known at the beginning of the 1964-65 school year. After much preparation and hard work, Psi had a successful Carnival as a yearly rush party. The day finally arrived when we would find out which girls would be our new pledges. Our excitement and anticipation were rewarded when 23 new pledges came to Psi. vVe feel very, very lucky to have Patty But, Karen Bowan, Ruth Burner, Dot Coffey, Madelyn Coleman, Bettye Compton, Juanita Crumpler, Sue Foster, Jo Ann Gallagher, Jayanne Haines and Karen Hanson. The other pledges are Julia Hogge, Mary Ann McGuinness, Barbara Mauzy, Linda Mitchell, Sue Nelson, Anne Perdue, Leah Sedwick, Marian Stallings, Carol Stopps, Susi Timmons, Sandra Welsh and Judy Williams. Songs, laughter and fun filled the small cabin in the mountains where the new pledges and old members spent the night. No sooner had the thrills of welcoming calmed than a Come-As-You-Are Halloween Party was in the making at our old sorority house (we are now in a new Panhellenic Dorm). It was another good night to remember. 34

Our Founders' Day Banquet gave us all inspiration for the corning year. At the Banquet Andrea Lacy received the Helen Frank Scholarship. Initiation was the next big event. \Velcoming our new Sisters is always a special time. At Christmas we gave food and several small presents to a needy family in Harrisonburg. After caroling at the nearby hospital, the members enjoyed a Christmas party with a real live Santa! H e gave us each a small present. The next weekend was the Panhellenic Christmas Dance, "An Old-Fashioned Christmas." Each sorority on campus was given a section to decorate. Much artistic talent was shown by old and new members of A~T. An 8-foot snowman was one of our projects for the dance. We are happy to say that Mi s Helen Frank has come to our rescue and is now acting as our Advisor while our regular Advisor cannot be with us. Tow we are looking forward to th e new semester and what the new year has in store for us. We'll be ready! P.S. We're proud to say Andrea B. Lacy and Barbara Sweeny both made Who's

Alpha Alpha is on the move. IMPORTA T activities began in September for th e women of Alpha Alpha and continued. A rush workshop and picnic started the autumn season, and was followed by a dance for the men of the Veterans Administration Hospital in Marion, Indiana. Alpha Alphas found themselves busily stuffing napkins into our float, "I Take Thee Puma," for Homecoming on October 12. The Homecoming theme was "Cavalcade of Comedy" and our float depicted a mock wedding. Our bride was a statuesque brunette about 9-feet tall, but the groom was not a perfect match for her as he was only 5feet tall. The happy couple was surely warmer than we were, as th e temperature on Homecoming day dipped into the 30's. Our new outfits helped to keep us warm though. vVe were dressed in lavender skirts and blouses topp ed by lavender and white mohair sweaters. Memories of Homecoming faded away with the beginning of Greek Week on November 2. Workshops on various topics pertaining to Greek life were held and an allGreek sing around th e bonfire climaxed the week's activities. Founders' Day was celebrated b ela tedly. Conflicts \vith campus activities forced us to postpone our banquet with the Muncie Alumnae Chapter until ovember 13. Miss Marguerite Haugen, director of D emotte Hall at Eall State, showed slides and spoke of her world trip at the Banquet. The Christmas season was filled with several activities for our Chapter. We sponsored a party for some children of the school for th e handicapped in Muncie, and joined with the men of D elta Chi FraterANCHOR

Alpha Taus would like to welcome and have you meet our new sponsors; Miss Amy Jean Greene, Arkansas' 1964 Woman of the Year; and Mrs. Roy Green.

We are proud of the girls who brought honors to the Alpha Gamma Chapter this summer and last spring. Judy Patton was Hot Springs County Forestry Queen, a District Poultry Princess and one of the five finalists in the "Miss Henderson" Pageant. Other Taus in the Pageant were Sunni Coleman and Ginger Creed. Our representatives in the Reddie Day Queen Contest were Judy Patton and Sandra Gaines. Mary Alice Moseley was the Battle Group Sponsor of the Henderson R.O.T.C., and Ginny Pace, an Honorary Cadet Captain. Ginny has also been selected as a dancer for the H.S.T.C. Collegians, the third ranked Jazz Band in the nation. Sandra Gaines won the beauty portion of the Beauty and the Beast Contest, a Tri Sigma Sorority sponsored event to raise money for their memorial fund. She is also Top Tau from Alpha Gamma Chapter.

Before school closed in the spring, Taus spent the weekend in Hot Springs, planning this fall's rush program. Of course we took time out to swim, sun and water ski. We had a good time and accomplished much work. We attended the "Miss Arkansas" Pageant this summer and cheered for our Sisters from other Chapters. We were proud of the girls and the way they represented Alpha Sigma Tau. The gathering for the Pageant gave us a holiday from summer school and fellowship with our Sisters lucky enough to spend their summers loafing.

Alpha Gamma's Ginny Pace is a Henderson State Teacher's College Drum Majorette.

Alpha Delta holds successful rush. THE members of the Alpha Delta Chapter at Southwest Missouri State College barely had time to welcome our new housemother, Mrs. Nova ash, affectionately known as "Mom Nash," when fall rush activities began. Our firsh rush party had an Oriental theme built around the "House of Tau" and a young college girl nam ed Lei Tau. ext came the traditional "Magical Moments" party which was held at the Shady Inn this year. There, our magical Mistress of Ceremonies, Catherine Swineford, drew out of a hat symbols of Alpha Sigma Tau such as an Anchor, a yellow rose and a pin. She also managed to conjure a pledge, an Active and an Alumna who told what Alpha Sigma Tau means to them. The final party was a preferential tea where favors of a yellow rose were given to each rushee. All our hard work paid when we were able to pledge 11 wonderful girls. They are Marilyn Fronabarger, Linda Ford, Daria Hammontree, Rosemary Hedric, Sandra Hines, Ann Oswant, Betsy Patterson, Linda Stewart, Barbara Watson, Kathy Williamson and Elaine White. The new pledges plunged into work on our Boat for the Homecoming parade. Due to a last minute change to a much longer truck we didn't win a prize for our Boat this year, but we certainly had lots of fun and good fellowship working together on it. Before the Homecoming football game, we held our traditional Founders' Day Banquet at the Grove. It was wonderful to see all the Alumnae who made a special effort to come to the Banquet. On the Monday night before Thanksgiving, our annual Turkey Tromp was held. A Mr. Tom Turkey and a Miss Cranberry Sauce were crowned at this, our most successful Turkey Tromp in several years. Since there seemed to be a lull in the pledges' activities, the Actives held an informal party for them after a meeting night. Judy Ruesler, Flo Pearce and Beth Ford ANCHOR

presented a skit showing a new pledge at her first fraternity party, and slides of last year's activities were shown. Just before Christmas, the pledges held a Big Sister-Little Sister Christmas Party for the Actives. Each pledge presented a gift to her Big Sis and th e Actives gave the pledges charms for th eir bracelets. Also, the Alumnae Chapter served a d elicious Christmas Dinner to the Collegiates at the hom e of Mrs. Joe Reiter one evening.

Singing, t alk and hot chocolate introduced new pledges t o Alpha Delta sorority life at a party after ribbon pledging.

In addition to collecting materials for the box to send to the Pine Mountain Settlement School, the pledges were busy making small felt Christmas stockings in the color of the campus sororities and fraternities as a money-making project. Besides the usual exchange parties with the fraternities, Alpha Delta initiated a series of joint executive committee meetings with the fraternities to plan cooperative activities. The first, a hayride with Sigma Pi, had to be cancelled because of very bad weather. As usual there are many Alpha Deltas who deserve to be congratulated for honors they have received. Although there are many girls who are members of departmental clubs, we also have three who be-

long to the Rifle Club. Julie Siddens is Secretary, and Barbara Watson and Elaine White are also members. Faye Fronabarger, who once again is on the President's Honor Roll with her 4.0 grade point, is President of Sociology Club and of the newly formed honorary sociology fraternity , Alpha Kappa Delta. Catherine Swineford was an attendant to the Christmas Queen at S.M.S., and is also Alpha Delta's candidate for Ozarko Queen.

ALpha Epsilon sees exciting and prosperous year. ALPHA Epsilon Chapter has had a very exciting and prosperous 1964-65 school year. During the first week of school eight Alpha Taus returned early to act as freshm en counselors during Freshman 路week. They

were Trudi Ambler, Marjo Cooper, Sue Forke, Margie Huber, Carol Morrisey, Norma Piacenza, Linda Rolf and Patti Simonides. Homecoming was a happy time at the Alpha Tau house as one of our girls, Irene F erguson , was elected Homecoming queen. Irene was sponsored by Lincoln-Washington Hall, a men's residence hall. Informal rush was held in October and 13 wonderful girls were pledged: Diane Anderson, Caren Cavanaugh, Joan Clark, Bonnie Davis, Linda Dittman, Sue Forke, Kay Kirlq>atrick, Jeanne Mutimer, Joan Rhodes, Donna Shivley, Patti Sullivan, Suanne Troy and Kay Werner. The Alpha Taus were very proud when announcements of Who's Who 'in American Colleges and Universities were made. We far smpassed any other Greek organization on campus, having eight girls selected. 路winners of this national honor were Trudi Ambler, Doris Barzyk, Margie Huber, Jeannie Limacher, Carol Morrisey, Linda Rolf, Joan Roper and Sandy Valenta. A~Ts on the University Union Board are Trudi Ambler, Chairman; Barb Tornillo, Secretary; Patti Simonides, Sandy Valenta,

having the National Alpha Sigma Tau Convention in our city. Last June graduation took several members. In fact, we found ourselves with only seven collegiate members. To solve this problem National approved a summer pledge class. ine pledges were accepted and went through a concentrated 7-week pledge period. Our nine new members are Kathy Ceru, Betty Crawford, Dianne Hyland, Fran Jokubaitis, Jean Parus, Nancy Patten, Marilyn Slovick and Andrea Tynan. The summer pledging was most successful and fun for everyone. With the National Convention in Detroit many of the girls were able to attend. Barbara Busby, our President, was our official delegate, and Mary Sue Roulo was our candidate in the queen contest. Greek Night, September 23, was the beginning of fall rush on campus. The Alpha Thetas greeted rushees and introduced them to sorority life. With the completion of fall rush, following two formal teas, we accepted five pledges, Beverly Owens, Anna Petrozzi, Marianne Sante, Marilyn Rigbey and Diane Winarski. After fall rush, Homecoming was almost upon us. Naturally we entered the float ANCHOR

competition. Since U-D was playing the Dayton Flyers in our Homecoming game, we chose an airplane for the central part of our float. We called the plane the Spirit of U-D. To complement the Fantasy Land parade theme, we constructed a papiermache Minnie Mouse, who acted as cheerleader and pilot of our float, covered with hundreds of paper flowers. Pledge Mistress Marilyn Johnson ran for Homeco~ing queen. She was among the ten finalists. Last year Marilyn was an Air Force sweetheart. Alpha Theta joined the Detroit Alpha Sigma Tau Alumnae group on November 7 for a Founders' Day luncheon at Stoeffer's Northland Inn. Miss Helen Kean, D ean of Women at U-D, and her assistant, Miss Mary Ward, attended the luncheon as our special guests. That evening Alpha Thetas and their dates met at ancy Patten's home for a gettogether before attending the annual Sadie Shuffie. The Sadie is a turnabout girl-askboy dance sponsored by the U-D Women's League. Our Chapter sponsored a school-wide Victory Mixer on December 5 following the U-D vs Christian Brothers basketball game. The dance was well attended and gave our treasury a needed boost. Christmas was a busy time for us. We participated in the Women's League Christmas Basket Drive, collecting food for needy families. On D ecember 20 we traveled to Pontiac (about 30 miles north of Detroit) to Betty Crawford's home for a Christmas dinner party. Congratulations to Kathy Ceru on her election to Phi Alpha Theta, national history honorary society. To qualify for membership a student must have a B-plus average in history and a B average in two-thirds of his remaining courses. Kathy and Nancy Patten have been nominated to Gamma Pi Epsilon, national Jesuit honor society for women. They will be initiated in the spring if they maintain their high averages and are active in school organizations and activities. Cupid has moved among our ranks. ANGHOR

Alpha Iota holds State Day for two Sister Chapters. Tms past semester the Syracuse University Chapter held a State Day for the Brooklyn and Queens College Chapters. The girls arrived Friday, and we literally had wall-towall Sisters. Saturday night was spent in workshops discussing sorority life and problems, and taking a tour of the campus. Saturday night found dates for our visiting Sisters and a formal dinner-dance. Sunday after brunch, a tired, but happy group of Sisters departed for Iew York City. The weekend was successful and enjoyable, and we hope to continue to make this a Chapter tradition. A House Decorating Contest held at Syracuse celebrated Halloween and the football game against Pittsburgh. With the supervision of Joy and Ronnie, we entered featuring Arachnid's Rack, which honored our fine defensive team known as The Spikers. Our Campus Chest Carnival Booth was "Shave The Balloon," designed for the customer to shave lather off a balloon with a razor. The Carnival and the Booth were a huge success as a ferris wheel highlighted the event. A Soda Bottle Drive was an enriching experience for us all under the direction of Dianne L. The Sisters gathered bottles from the Syracuse area, and the money collected from these went to our Panhellenic 41

Charity, The National Association of Retarded Children. Our Formal Party theme for rushing this year was Calypso, complete with palm tree s, flowers and music giving a truly Caribbean atmosphere. vVe served fresh fruit and punch in pineapple shells. (Pineapple chunks will certainly be on our menu for some time to come. ) As 路 favors, we gave straw hats and flowers to the rushees. vVe are now awaiting the results of a wonderfully executed rush . We look forward to next semester to continue our social activities of coffees, dinners and parties, and to furth er our cultural and campus activities.-DIANE GLAZER

Later Pat Nappi and Paula Howell were added to our "future-actives" list, headed by Stahr Pateman, Pledge Trainer. During first semester, rushees were led along a yellow brick road to the A~T house for a "Wizard of Oz" party. President Carllene Race, dressed as Dorothy with Todo, greeted th e gu ests at the story-book door and introduced the lion, the tinman, the scarecrow and all the other members of the Oz party. After a mod ern version of the "Wizard of Oz" tale, toy Todo dogs were given to the rushees and refreshments were erved by Sisters dressed in Dorothy pinafor es over pastel shirtwaists. With a large group such as Alpha Kappa, nothing is don e small-and Homecoming serenades were no exception. Linda Taber, A~T's "Most Beautiful Girl in the World" was presented to th e campus as our queen candidate in h路u e Ziegfeld style.

One highlight of the tour was our new den, although then not quite completed. Our Big and Little Sis Christmas Party was enjoyed by the new pledges after a pajama party at which they acted out an appropriate Yuletide skit for the active members. Santa Doug Castle, aided by Liz Lennon, dish路ibuted gifts to each A~T and Mom Miller. Mom presented the Chapter with a much-wanted card table. Pledges and actives danced beneath the stars at our annual pledge formal, "Tau Heaven," held January 9. Each pledge was presented a lavalier by her Big Sister after the class had sung its song prepared for the evening. Song Leader Liz Lennon then led the Sorority 'in "Somewhere Over the Rainbow." We are proud of Kathy Olson, Sorority Treasurer, and Barbara Berman , who were elected to Who's Who in American Colleges and Universities. Second semester will bring more work and more good times for AK. Songs for Greek Sing have been chosen and practices are to b egin soon.

Alpha Mu sports new outfits. ALPHA Mu Chapter returned to campus 16 strong sporting new outfits of emerald green blazers and skirts to match. Rush began in early October and we were fortunate to receive 6 of the 10 girls that pledged for the fall semester. The pledge class consisted of Bobbie Barham, Peggy Clayton, Paula Pruitt, Joanne Clark,

Carol Cloud and Kay Forrester. During the pledge period the members and pledges filled a box for the Pine Mountain Settlement School with books, pencils, paper, crayon and other school supplies. December 3 brought our District President, Mrs. T. Reed Maxson, to visit us. A formal reception was given in her honor on the night of her arrival. December 4 was the date of our Christmas dance with our brother fraternity, Sigma Tau Gamma. Using "Alpine Lodge" as a theme and "Christmas in the Alps" as the central idea, we were able to present a most successful Christmas dance. Hard studying paid for Alpha Mus as we won the coveted scholarship plaque awarded each year to the Greeks on campus with the highest scholastic average. Kay Moon, Culture Chairman, and Mary Jo Lane, Historian, are leaving Alpha Mu at semester. Kay is transferring to the University of Arkansas and Mary Jo to the Arkansas State Teachers College.

alumnae news Baton Rouge activities make a busy year THE Baton Rouge Alumnae Chapter began its 1964 fall season with a September meeting at the home of Peggy Aime. Since we are a new, small group we voted to retain the same officers for 1965. After the business meeting, we had refreslunents and a social hour, catching up on news of the summer months. Our October meeting was hosted by Kay McPherson at her home. Camille Gennaro, our President, announced th at she had received news from National that we were one hundred percent in efficiency points since our Chapter was re-activated in 1963. Instead of meeting in Baton Rouge for th e ovember meeting, a group of us including Peggy Aime, MaryAnn Parker, Noy Robbins Sh路ickland and Mary Lemoine, went to Hammond, Louisiana, for the A ~T Founders' Day banquet with Phi Chapter. The dinner was held in the dining room of Kellogg's Restaurant. Phi members presented a meaningful program on available leadership opportunities for young Americans. At the close of the program Sara ANCHOR

Sims, Phi's President, presented us with the Efficiency Award Certifica te and a $5 check. The award was a national honor and quite a thrill for us. Our Christmas party and meeting was at the new apartment of MaryAnn Parker, our Vice-Presiden t. After a short busin ess meeting we had an informal party. The January meeting was at th e home of Mrs. oy Robbin s Strickland, who incidentally, is our latest bride! (August '64 ) While discussing spring plans, we decided to visit the old an d new governor's mansions in Baton Rouge. The old mansion was built in the 30's by the notoriou thenGovernor Huey P . Long. It is now an Arts and Science Center. The new mansion is our highly publicized "million dollar" governor's dwelling of Greek Revival architecture. Also we plan to tour some plantation homes in neighboring areas. On of them is "Oakley" where Audubon painted his famous birds. MaryAnn Parker was appointed by City Panhelleni c as Chairman of the Spring Function Committee. Prospective sorority rushees for 1965-66 and their mother ' ill be guests of Panhellenic at the affair. This will be the second such function since the re-organization of Panhellenic last year. We participated last year with a di play and a model for the style show.

This year promises much in plans and activities for Baton Rouge Alumnae. We wish the best to A~T's everywhere in 1965!

Bluefield enjoys a busy fall. THE Bluefield Alumnae as usual enjoyed a busy fall season. The first September meeting was with Nancy Ruddell, and 15 members and a guest enjoyed one of our most interesting programs. Our guest was Mrs. French R. Taylor, wife of the pastor of Virginia Avenue Methodist Church. Mrs. Taylor showed six beautiful arrangements of garden flow ers and made a very professional d emonstration arrangement. To the delight of all she gave many helpful hints in flower arranging. The October meeting was in the conference room of the First National Bank. Very special guests were sorority Sisters from the Omicron Collegiate Chapter. Our President, Marcella Whitlock, introduced the girls and turned the program over to them. The program, in form of a model meeting, was presided over by the Collegiate President, Sue Rice. We were proud to receive our Efficiency Award of $5. The November meeting is a favorite of all Alumnae, husbands and friends. Our annual Thanksgiving dinner was held in the home of Virginia Bailey, with Thelma Bailey assisting. Enjoying this delicious meal were special guests, Dr. and Mrs. Meade McNeil of Anthens, Donald Kensinger, Mrs. Louise Hughes and husbands of the members. Hostesses for the Christmas meeting were Mrs. Mildred Warden and Mrs. Joyce Buchanan. Special guests for this program were Mrs. Corley Lineberger, who gave the historical background of Christmas carols and sang songs relating to the Birth of Christ, and Mrs. Ralph Kahle who accompanied Mrs. Lineberger. Members continued their custom of remembering a deserving child during the Christmas season 48

Buffalo plans Hat Fashion Show. THE Buffalo Alumnae Chapter of Alpha Sigma Tau has enjoyed a very busy fall and winter. Sally Wales was hostess in August for a meeting of the board members in Wilson, New York. After enjoying a wonderful picnic supper, we completed program plans for the coming year. In September Jean McNamara had a potluck supper in her summer home at Silver Bay, Ontario. Our Convention d elegates reported their news and views of the wonderful Convention in Detroit. Congratulations to our own Margaret Macdonald, ational Treasurer, for receiving the Ada A. Norton Award, and to Sally Wales, newly-elected President of District II. Janet McCarron's home in Lancaster was the location of our dessert meeting in October. Janet and Mildred Kirby were cocomposers of the original song, "Our Pledge," which won first place for us at the Convention. We all enjoyed singing this and other Sorority favorites around the piano. Mary Bolton entertained the board members in her lovely home later in October. Our annual Founders' Day Luncheon was held on November 7 at the Sheraton Hotel in Buffalo. Chairman Jeanette Adams and her committee made it a memorable occasion. Mrs. Ralph Henrich presented an interesting talk on "Bells" complete with a wonderful display from her own collection. Later in November the Buffalo City Panhellenic Association sponsored a Theater Party. Several of our members met for (Continued on Pa ae 50) ANCHOR

Her home was beautifully decorated for an event enjoyed by more than 40 of our members and their husbands and escorts. Norma Martin held the January dessert meeting in her new home in Tonawanda. Margaret Kane Glass, one of our members working with the Erie County Welfare Department, took us "behind the scenes" to look at the problems of children and the finding of foster homes for them. In February we look forward to attending the City Panhellenic Sherry Party and a tour of the Buffalo Historical Museum.

February's hostess was Margaret Troisi, and again the food was supreme. March found us at the home of Marianne Lamberty, and in April, we hope to have our Spring Luncheon with the Nu Chapter and all A~T's who are in the Denver area. You really are missing lots of good food and fellowship if you don't join us at our meetings. Although it seems our main purpose is to eat, we do enjoy all the facets of our meetings, and hope that those of you who live in or near Denver will meet with us whenever you can.-ELEANOR McKEEMAN

Denver donates dollars. THIS year our major emphasis has been to assist the u Chapter in purchasing some badly needed supplies. We hope the new bed that we bought will provide many years of comfortable sleeping for our "active" Sisters. In September we had a delicious luncheon and meeting at the home of Evelyn Gustafson, and made plans for the year under the excellent leadership of our new President, Shirley Bales. October found many of us at Greeley celebrating Founders' Day with the actives and Alumnae there. It was a wonderful time that everyone enjoyed.

A Thank You from the Convention Chairman Dear Sisters, Detroit hotel workers are currently on strike and my thoughts automatically go to the frantic convention chairmen whose careful planning is now for naught. We had only a newspaper strike to contend with! One cannot be involved in convention planning without feeling great empathy for the word "convention" and all it means. Although Convention '64 is long past, I have not had an opportunity to thank you all for the heartwarming letters of appreciation and thanks which we received from our many Sisters. Perhaps the best way to tell you how we feel is to cite the final paragraph of the introduction to the Convention Manual compiled the weekend following Convention and directed to the next convention chairman. "It is a fearful job when you once begin, but it is also most satisfying to have seen everything fall into place. It is not done by the chairman alone. The most wonderful resource you have are those sorority sisters

sorority sisters, hostessed the event, and planned a delightful film interlude on Michigan vacations. With this theme, members from the entire metropolitan area gathered to compare summers, and enjoy again the friendships r enewed at the Detroit Convention. We gathered in Farmington in October, at the home of Ingrid agy. With one of our largest attendance groups, we made tissue roses to help decorate Alpha Thetas Homecoming Float. We were especially honored at our Founders' Day luncheon with the presence of the Dean of Women, and the Assistant ANCHOR

who will stay on hand at the last moment and do anything that needs to be done. The national officers and chairmen are also the most valu able people you have. They will step in and rescue you when you have forgotten something or when something goes wrong. Best of all-your sorority sisters appreciate the work that goes into a convention and tell you of their appreciation!" Most sincerely, RosE MARIE ScHMIDT, National Conven tion Chairman. 1964

P. S. A personal note to explain the tardiness of my thanks- you knew I was completing my dissertation, a project that was interrupted at intervals for convention planning, and completely neglected during August, 1964. The following months were 路 hectic indeed attempting to meet the October 31 deadline. Cleanup activities, oral examination, graduation and getting my prof essiona l affairs in order took the remaining time. It will take a year to catch up on the personal affairs neglected!

As we "strive to con tribute our share to the progress of mankind," we will further our ideals as sorority women.MRs. vVILLIAM MoNTICELLO

Emporia exchanges homemade gifts. EMPORIA Alumnae began the year with a September meeting at the Chapter House. Installation of new officers was conducted

by outgoing President Janice Burch. The regular business meeting following was conducted by our new President, Jan Eilert. In October we held a Halloween Party in honor of the new pledges of the Collegiate Chapter. A very entertaining evening was spent getting acquainted and playing appropriate games. ovember found us observing Founders' Day with the Collegiates. We all enjoyed an excellent dinner and the lovely candlelight service which followed. At this time the Alumnae Chapter presented the Iota Collegiates with a gift of silver in honor of the occasion. A large group met at Jan Green's home for a Christmas party in December. Highlighting the evening was an exchange of unique homemade gifts. A donation was also made by our group to the Pine Mountain Home. January's meeting held in the Student Union on the E. State Campus was another exciting event. Alumnae members and their husbands were special guests. We enjoyed a lovely dinner, visiting with friends and an evening of bridge. Midnight snacks were prepared by Alumnae for the Collegiates each night in January during final week. The girls are always appreciative of this project . The Alumnae on the housing board are working steadily toward our goal- a new house for Iota in the near future.

Willow Cameron, our new President, was hostess for our group in October when we planned the Chapter program for the year. Maxine Springer gave us highlights of the National Convention at Detroit. This was the fifth time Maxine had been our official Representative.

In January we had an enjoyable evening meeting at the home of Florence Baker. We discussed our annual rummage sale and made plans for our "Night Out" in ApriL-IsABEL WELCH ANCHOR

Muncie travels world with "Culture Portraits." THE FmST fall meeting of the Muncie Alumnae was at the hom e of President ell Young for a "mapping" program night. By evening's end we all felt a stimulatin g year was forthcoming. In October there was the usual hustle and bustle viewing a Homecoming parade, urging a football team to win the game, and at day's end, gathering at the Sorority suite for the Collegiates' "after-game" gettogether where we greeted old friends and met new. Also in October we held a rummage sale. It is surprising how much money can be raised in this easy way. Founders' Day is always an anticipated occasion. This year, following a delightful meal, we had the privilege of seeing slides taken by Marguerite Haugen, Director of Women Resident Halls at Ball State University. (NOTE: It is now Ball State University and not Ball State Teachers College. Our Governor has recently signed the bill that gave us University status.) Miss Haugen's travel-talk called "Culture Portraits," moved us quickly around the world glimpsing churches, children, native dress, local food, etc. In Decemb er our annual Christmas party was held at the home of Ethel Heimlick. At this time we all b ecame "Grandma Moses." Given the name of a Christmas song, we would draw our interpretation of it for the rest of the members to guess its name. Such masterpieces you have never seen before. January found us all at the John R. Emens College Community Auditorium. We never realized how much activity w ent on back stage to have a successful program on stage. Spring will soon be here and we are as eagerly awaiting coming acti ities as we are the first robin.-RUTH PARKER 53

Scott was named delegate to the Norfolk Panhellenic Association, and Mrs. T. W. Shield will act as alternate delegate. As of our December meeting we had approximately 30 on our active membership roll. We will alternate our meeting days to make it more convenient and enjoyable for the majority. Meeting on the third Thursday night every other month, on alternate months we will have a luncheon meeting on the third Saturday. The November luncheon was at W. G. Swartz in downtown Norfolk. The program included an observance of Founders' Day. A photographer was present to take pictures; but, alas, we could salvage none from the faulty film. In December June Reynolds, a Zeta Tau, presented many delightful ideas for Christmas decorations and gift-wrapping. The items were so charming that someone remarked that June's display looked like a page from the Ladies Home Journal! June said that many of her decorations were actually simple and economical, and we returned to our homes filled with enthusiastic ideas. Although officially known as the Norfolk Chapter, our membership includes many from Portsmouth, Chesapeake, Suffolk and Virginia Beach. As we cover a large area we hope to have a large and active group. -JUDY JOHNSON

Princeton-Athens increases enrollment. THE Princeton-Athens Alumnae Chapter began fall and winter activities led by President Beryle Crockett Santon (Mrs. Jacob Santon). The Chapter increased its enrollment to a new high with the attendance of Sisters who had been inactive. The increased attendance made many activities successful. In September we had our first meeting of the new year. Slides of the New York World's fair were shown, giving us interesting details of the buildings and displays. Miss Carol Allen, Home Economics instructor at Concord College, presented a program on gift wrapping in October. Miss Allen not only exhibited the steps for wrapping beautiful packages for Christmas, but also brought enough ribbon for each Sister to practice making various designs with ribbon on packages. In November members invited a representative of the Roller Floral Company to speak on decorating homes for Christmas. We were shown the various steps for making poinsetta arrangements, kissing balls, flower and ribbon wreaths, and so forth with artificial demonstration flowers. Mter the presentation the representatives gave various displays made especially for Christmas to the Sorority. These were then given to the hostesses and patronesses of the Collegiate Chapter. A~T held its December meeting at the home of Mrs. Anna Lee Greer for a small Christmas party. The members put their best talents to use in a gift wrapping and decoration contest. In January Mrs. Beryle Lambert hosted a meeting completed with a very successful white elephant sale. The sale brought in money as well as old objects from attics and basements, from an outdated calendar to used Thanksgiving candles. With the help of all Sisters ...,T completed a heart-warming project of helping a needy child in our area b buyina her ANCHOR

With all Sisters together, these first wonderful months have been successful and we look forward to the rest of the year as being prosperous and happy with Alpha Sigma Tau.-CAROLYN WALTHALL

The Shepherdstown Alumnae Chapter was form ed May, 1944. In D ecember our annual Christmas party was at the home of Miss Genevieve Pitzer in Gerrardstown. The program was a History of Carols presented in th e form of poems and story. Three students from Musselman High School presented the History under the direction of Miss Clara Roberts, an Alumna and their English teacher. At our January meeting held in Gerrardstown, West Virginia, at the home of Mrs. James Boyd, slides were shown from the trip around the world conducted each year by Dr. Ruth Scarobough through Shepherd College. The girls enjoyed seeing slides of Mrs. Earl Peterson who was along on the tour. February took us to the home of Mrs. Sherman Beard, Jr., at Nollville, West Virginia, for an enjoyable covered dish supper. We are looking forward to the March meeting to be held at Shepherd College with the Collegiate group. They will present a cultural program and we will provide the refreshments. Of course, April will b e election of officers month, and initiation of new members. Installation of new officers will be in May. -ANN DOWNEY SIMPSON

THE Shepherdstown Alumnae Chapter of Alpha Sigma Tau started in September with the annual picnic at the War Memorial Park in Martinsburg, West Virginia. At this time the program was set up and meeting places announced. We sent letters to all inactive Shepherdstown Alumnae members in the hope that they, if possible, would attend our meetings. Not too many were received, but in case any member was not contacted, we would like to hear from her. In October we gathered at the home of Mrs. Ross (Gladys) Jones where the Drama Club from Hedgesville High School, under the direction of Mrs. Stephen (Sylvia) Sinnett, Alumnae Representative and teacher, presented "Teahouse of the August Moon."

During the first September meeting, at Nancy Mott Hanson's home we organized and planned for the months ahead. One of the scheduled activities, a fall rummage sale, was most successful. And, on October 17 we sponsored a Homecoming breakfast at the Beta House at Central Michigan University ( C.M.U.). Founders' Day was marked jointly with our closest Collegiate Chapter, Beta, on November 4. Everyone enjoyed a delicious meal at the Embers Restaurant in Mt. Pleasant. Of primary importance was the Christmas Bazaar scheduled for the first week in December. Under the able direction of Bazaar Chairman, Carla Almquist Young, we tried our hands at ceramics. Combining talents and energy we created a variety of Christmas candle-holders, candy dishes and candles. ot only was this a profitable venture, but we also learned the skills of working with ceramics. The bazaar took place in Midland and Saginaw. December found Alumnae and their youngsters at the home of Ann Coman ANGHOR

WHEN Washington, D. C., Alumnae met in September with Margaret Bowers and Betty Chew as hostesses, they eagerly awaited Meda Ray Sewell's report of the Detroit Convention. She brought messages from former Washington Alumnae and other friends , and briefly reviewed the Convention program. At the same meeting, the group began their year's main project, local social service, by making plans to help an underprivileged family of six. A most enjoyable dinner party was held at the home of Mary Louise Doyle in October. Each member brought a favorite dish. Founders' Day was observed at the Village House in Falls Church, Virginia . Again the girls enjoyed a lovely meal and an impressive program. The December meeting, with Barbara Grubbs and Martha Jones as co-hostesses, proved to be most interesting (as Christmas meetings usually are) with games and food and Christmas plans. The group continued their social service interest by arranging to buy gifts for six small children. January's meeting with Betty Sue Glaeser and Margaret Basilone revealed some items of interest which are unusual : Helen Sours, real estate agent, was selected saleswoman of the month for selling over two million dollars worth of real estate; Juanita Ritch's son, West Point student, has been selected as a Rhodes Scholar; Betty Chew planned to attend the District Ladies Reception and Inaugural Ball.

Since Washington is near so many colleges and universities, student teachers often come into the area to spend several weeks in the local schools. This year we have been fortunate in having several Alpha Sigma Taus in this group, and they have attended some of our meetings. Perhaps they will teach here and become active Alumnae.

Ypsilanti-Ann Arbor makes cookies for County Hospital.

Wichita Learns the "Care and Wear of Wigs." THE Wichita Alumnae met at the home of President Alberta Kroeker in September. The executive board recommended planned monthly programs and informal courtesy rules, unanimously accepted by the group. An enthusiastic and large company traded summer happenings. In October almost all of us demonstrated the "Care and Wear of Wigs" with the help of a local professional. Each AlT alumna took home candy to sell for our financial project. We were able to present Emporia Collegiates with four place settings of their silverplate. Founders' Day Dinner was at the Boston House. Sally Jo Curry conducted the traditional, ever inspiring candle-lighting service. A collection was taken, and an amount added from our treasury to present Pine Mountain and Larned State Hospital with gifts of money for our local and national social service projects. Carolyn D awson's home was the scene of our D ecember Christmas party. We had a covered dish supp er with husbands as

MANY of us enjoyed meeting our Sisters at the Detroit Convention in August. At our September meeting we discussed the Convention and the happenings of the summer. In October we wrapped small packages of homemade cookies for the patients at the Washtenaw County Hospital. These are appreciated by the patients who are older p eople having few visitors. ovember saw us visiting th e Ann Arbor Gas Company for a cooking demonstration titled "Delightfully Different." Not only did we receive good 路 cooking hints and new recipe ideas, but some luckily won a dish to take home. The night of our Christmas potluck with the Alphas was snowy, but most of us found our way to Joyce Parker's home. There wasn't much food left for those who were late. After a delicious supper we all joined in singing Christmas carols and Sorority songs. The Alphas surprised us with a beautiful tray. Sharon Bischoff and Barb Raabe knitted mohair hats which were won by Joyce Berg and Pauline Fucinari, who claims she never wears a hat. We're happy to have Pauline and Judy Lehr, 1964 Alpha graduates, become active members of our group. They are both doing graduate work at the University of Michigan.-BARBARA RAABE ~

Sorority Comment on a New Novel of Sorority ness and determination to do my best to seek knowledge in my sights for an education, as well as to wo rk harder for my chapter itself. I believe that every girl who reads this story will be inspired to do greater things, too. "Thank you, Mrs. Budd, for you 've somehow caught the glow that shines from every true sorority girl. I didn 't even think it was possible to put that glow right on black and white so that all could know the greatness of the sorority . .. but you did it!"-MISS KATHY BUCK, College Student and Sigma Kappa Member.

"The book should be displayed at every Panhellenic orientation tea and I'd like to see every chapter president and rush chairman read it before college work starts. It sets goals for them . .. and means by which they can attain them."-WILMA SMITH LELAND, Editorial Director, " Th e Fraterni ty Month." "Thank you for the beautiful way you have described the fraternity system. This is the first time I have ever read a true portrayal of what we, as workers in the movement, are trying to do for the development of 'the individual'-and the values and principles which we strive to activate in the lives and hearts of all our members. "I would like to put a copy of this book in every woman's fraternity house in the country. " -MRS. LEROY G. SHELTON, Member, National Council of Alpha Phi Sorority.

Registration is expected to climb rapidly each year and the President predicts the College will have eight thousand or more students by 1970. To meet the needs of the increasing enrollment, Southeastern this spring has some seven million dollars worth of construction underway, including seven buildings. This does not include the ten million dollars spent on other buildings since 1955, nor the seven-and-a-half million dollars worth on the drawing boards for the future. Located as one point in a triangle that includes the state's capital, Baton Rouge, and the state's largest city, New Orleans, each of which is only an hour's drive away, the College is convenient to the huge industrial complex along the 75-mile stretch of the Mississippi River between the Capital City and the Crescent City. Southeastern Louisiana College is a fully accredited member of the following: Southern Association of Colleges and Schools ; National Council for the Accredi tation of Teacher Education; National Association for Business Teacher E ducation ; and National Association of Schools of Music.

To meet increasing enrollment, 7 Million dollars worth of construction is scheduled for spring.
