Our Tau • In MllDBID

By Kathy Mayham, Alpha Pi Editor

L INDA JACKSON, a junior at Slippery Rock State College, Slippery Rock, Pa., spent her first semester this year studying in Madrid. Classes began in October with a review course in September.

Linda's classes included a Survey of Spanish Literature, Spanish Novel of the 19th and 20th Centuries, Advanced Com­position and Syntax, Foundations and History of Hispanic Civilization and Spanish Art.

Her room with twin beds and plenty of closet space, was located on the third floor. A balcony, with a beautiful castiron railing, overlooked the street. One of her first nights there, a woman in the street was singing and playing the drum while her little girl danced with castanets.

Dinner was served almost every eve­ning at 10 p.m. Linda has eaten some things in Spain that she would never have eaten at home, such as fried squids, rab­bit, creamed spinach, lentils and quite a few other things.

She's also fond of Sangria, a delicious drink made with wine, cognac, sugar and all sorts of fruit. " It seems funny here to be able to walk into the Woolworth's caf­eteria or into a grocery store and buy any kind of drink you like," said Linda.

Linda enjoys the fine food in Madrid .

On the weekends Linda did most of her sightseeing. She toured Navaccerada in the mountains outside of Madrid. "It was really gorgeous and freezing cold. There wasn't any snow, but people were dressed as if they were going skiing, boots and all, just to stay warm," Linda remarked .

Visits to Prado Museum where she saw paintings by Velazquez, Greco, Rubins, and Goya, jazz concerts and movies kept her very busy. Occasionally she went to the theater. On one such episode, she saw Rafael de Cordoba and his Flamenco Dancing Company.

One of her favorite places was a park called Retiro. It had trees, cafes, fountain, statues and a little lake. "It is so very peaceful and a good place to go when you get tired of fighting the crowd," she ex­plained.

A traditional Spanish Christmas Eve included a huge dinner, followed by drinks, dancing, singing, and more eating all night long. Christmas Day she shared with the Wilsons, an American Air Force Family at the Torrejon Base just outside of Madrid. The Museum of America

On Saturday they arrived in Toledo. Here she observed the famous Gothic Cathedral, the Roman bridge, Alcantara, over the river Tajo. She also visited the sword factory, famous for making swords used to kill the bulls throughout Spain.

Linda says that the people here are extremely friendly. If you don't know where you are or where you want to go, you can ask anyone. She's made some good friends and friendships to treasure. It was a beneficial experience, which en­riched her knowledge of Spain and its customs.

A FTER MONTHS OF HARD work and plan­ning, the Beta Zeta chapter initiation, at the University of Alabama, Birmingham, took place on Nov. 14, 1970. T he 10 charter members and the Faculty Advisor, Dr. Roberta Long, were initiated by Na­tional Treasurer Margaret MacDonald, District III Vice President Mrs. Justin G. Doyle and alumnae members.

The Beta Zeta officers were then as­sisted by the national representatives and alumnae in the initiation of the 13 members.

Although the weather was dreary Sat­urday evening, nothing could have put a damper on t he spirit of the 23 girls and their families and friends who at tended the banquet at the Guest Hou e Motor Inn in Birmingham.

Dr. Clay Sheffield, U.A. director of ad­missions, gave an inspiring speech at the banquet. Some of the other highlights of the evening were the presentation of the charter by Miss MacDonald, the gavel and plaque presentation by Mrs. Doyle, and the presentation of a silver tea set from National to Beta Zeta.

This memorable day was brought to a conclusion by the beautiful and inspiring candlelighting service.

We were also very proud to have alum­nae members and several girls from Phi chapter as our guests for this occasion.

Beta Zeta Chapter would also like to give a special thanks to Mrs. Sybil King, our alumnae representative and adviser, for her constant guidance and under­standing.

In a rut?

Got a goal?

What to do?

In a stew?

I've got a clue! And do you know who gave it to me? .. . The founders of our sorority.

Back in the late 1800's they must have been in a rut and wanted to do something about it. One of them came up with a brilliant idea. " Why not organ­ize our very own club?!"

" Great! " chorused the oth­ers , " but how do you go about doing THAT?"

THINK ON

THIS THING

Even for an oldster like me, if I (I must remember ... I must remember) just THINK the world's not falling to the absymal depths of hades at a super­sonic rate of speed. It's soaring upwards! It's real­ly improving." Then, for me it really is ... because I think so.

Think about your goal having already been ac­complished and it's more than three fourths of the way to completion. Think you can do what you've always wanted to do and it's practically done. Con­centrate on the good things you want out of life - and don't be side tracked by the fact that it can't be done- it's never been done - and you can do it.

Now they really were in a stew.

By Dianne W. Howell

"How about . . . " Phi alumna

"No, we can't." "We could .. . " " It's impractical." "Do you suppose . . . " " They wouldn't let us." "Do you think we could ... " "Well, maybe if ... "

But they had a start. They had a goal. The decision to do something , rather than to wish for something , was irrevocably theirs. They had committed themselves to a project and were on their way to success.

Then came the hard part; the trials, the errors, the attempts, the thoughts, the ideas that did work and the ideas that didn't. But their efforts were a moving force. They didn 't bog down, they didn't quit. They knew what they wanted and they worked at it. Don't think for a min­ute that they weren't beset with almost insurmountable problems. The legacy they left us attests to the fact that they must have had to work hard to accom­plish their goal.

I'd heard it said many times during my college years. But, strange as it may seem, I never once, in all that time, grasped its significance. It's more than a bible quota­tion-it's a philosophy for living.

Think positive thoughts. '! 'nat's all. Just think about things-anything-in a pleasanter vein and things will be better.

ANCHOR

I can recall reading a fairy tale type story in my youth that has stuck in my memory all these years. It had to do with a quaint, old fashioned, steam puffin' style choo-choo train and a stream­

lined locomotive. (I guess today a Snoo­py's "The Baron" type plane and a super­sonic jet would be more appropriate.)

The shiny streamlined locomotive, with all its modern equipment, scoffed at the antiquated, little choo-choo for attempt­ing to climb a hugh mountain that stood in the way of its distant destination. And, as can be imagined, a train can't climb an excessively steep incline. But the little choo-choo wanted very much to get to that distant town because the people there needed him. (It was too far off the beaten track for the big shiny locomotive to make it a regular stop on his fa t , efficient run.)

I needn 't go into all the thrilling juve­nile details, but the end of the tory is important.

Nobody thought the little choo-choo (Continued on page 15)

Paul and Madeline Lucusk i share a kiss following their wedd ing ceremony in West Cameroon .

Omicron Alumna Marries zn West Canzeroon

In the Fall 1970 issue of The Anchor,

Madeline Post told of her experiences teaching in West Africa . Now here is an account of her wedding which blended Cameroonian and American traditions.

GUESS YOU MIGHT say it all started On Feb. 10, 1970, when Paul Lucuski and I became engaged . Since it was impossible for us to go home for the wedding we decided to make the most of our experi­ence with the Peace Corps and get mar­ried right here in Cameroon .

JO

The first thing I did was to ask one of our Cameroonian teachers to take the place of my father. The custom in Cam­eroon is for the intended husband to pay a "bride price" to his future father-in-law.

After a price is agreed upon the suitor may spend everal months saving enough money to meet this "debt." Many times the hu band will pay the remainder of the price after he is married.

Since we didn't have a lot of money the bride price that Paul paid was onl a chicken and a bottle of "mimbo.' (Mimbo is a 'wine" tapped from palm tree .)

That brings u up to the pre-wedding arrangement . I ent out ' edding in ita-

.-\.V H R

tions to Cameroonians and friends at home. I never really expected anyone from the States to come. But believe it or not, my AST roommate Sue Hunter came and was one of my bridesmaids.

I designed my own wedding invitations and one of my students hand painted each one. The cross and dove on the cover represented love, peace and friendship. The shield and spears showed that this love, peace and friendship must be pro­tected to ensure a happy life.

Since I didn't send an explanation along with each invitation I'm not sure what people thought the design meant.

We all wore traditional wrappers and head-ties for the ceremony. The wrappers were double with a long one on the bot­tom which came all the way to the ground. The shorter wrap over the first was 2-3 inches above the knee.

The maid of honor wore yellow material with green designs, while the bridesmaids wore the same material but with a green background and yellow designs. (Of course, the colors for the wedding had to be green and gold.)

ANCHOR

Paul and the best man wore dark green gowns with yellow embroidery. The ush­ers wore bluish-gray embroidered slacks and long shirts.

Since florists are very scarce in Cam­eroon, my maid of honor and I picked the flowers we carried on the morning of the wedding.

The ceremony took place at the Cath­olic Mission Church in Beau, West Cameroon. After the wedding we had a reception at the Regional Peace Corps Director's house. We had wedding cake made by the director's wife and various types of Cameroonian food made by my cook and several local women.

The toast to the bride and groom was given by the best man. For the toast we used "mimbo" or palm wine. First a long speech is given and then the best man pours some mimbo on the floor. This is a type of libation to the ancestors.

The most important part of the toast is to wish that the couple will have many children. We concluded with the tradi­tional American rice throwing which was new to the Cameroonians.

This is the original wedding invitation which Madeline designed.

THINK -cont' d could accomplish his goal, but he t hought so. As he huffed and he puffed and he strained and he pulled on his way up the mountain, he kept saying to himself: " I think I can ... I think I can ... I think I can ." And he did . And while all the other more modern, but not necessarily sleek, streamlined trains stopped in t heir tracks.

It all depends on what you expect. If you believe it can be done, and you main­tain that belief, regardless of whatever negative thoughts you will undoubtedly hear, it can be done . Concentrate your thoughts on the accomplished (note the past tense) goal and you will be amazed at your own results.

Alphas Participate In (Chick Relay'

The first Alpha meeting of the fall semester at Eastern Michigan University, Ypsilanti, was presided by the new offi­cers: Robyn Haskell, president; Donna Mist, vice president; Barb Blasey, treas­urer; Brenda Bauer, recording secretary and DeeDee Dancer, corresponding sec­retary.

This fall semester began very busily with the Alphas supporting our home­coming candidate, Judy Leonard, and working on our homecoming float which took fourth place.

A few weeks later the sisters partici­pated in the Chick Relays sponsored by the Tau Kappa Epsilon fraternity. This proved to be a very fun filled, but sore experience.

Although no bids were extended this fall semester, rush brought each of our sisters into a closer bond of sisterhood.

Founders' Day was celebrated Novem­ber 7, at Carl's Chop House in Detroit. Here the Alpha sisters sold key chains made during the semester.

During the Christmas season, the Al­pha Chapter sold Christmas cards for the Association for Emotionally Disturbed Children. Also, the Alpha girls could be seen and heard caroling on campus and the surrounding neighborhood.

Two of our senior sisters are graduating and will be leaving us this semester. We wish Cathy Pekarek and Char Wilson much happiness and success in the future in pursuing their new careers.

The Alphas are looking forward to spring rush which is all planned and to our dinner dance which will be celebrated with the Theta Chapter at Wayne State and the Alpha Theta Chapter at the Uni­versity of Detroit.

Sally Morrow Homecoming Queen

Sweetheart of Kappa Sigma

Deltas Sponsor Homecoming ~een

Delta chapter returned from summer with excitement and honors in store at Indiana University, Indiana, Pa. With but two short weeks of the semester under our belts, Homecoming was upon us.

We teamed up with the brothers of Kappa Sigma, and under the direction of Marilyn Bingey, constructed our float for the Homecoming parade. In keeping with the theme of "Great Movies" our entry was "Please Don't Eat the Daisies." Although we didn't place with our float, we were even more thrilled to claim IUP's Homecoming Queen, Sally Morrow. Sally became another source of pride several weeks later when she was named Sweet­heart of Kappa Sigma.

Fall rush was next on the agenda for Delta . Under the leadership of Linda Jorgensen, we pledged 11 new girls. In addition, we were most happy to welcome Mrs. Louise Hanson into our bond as a social advisor.

We were especially proud of our pledges at the semi-formal dance which they planned and presented at the olleg

A CHOR

lodge. Entitled "Inagad-Tau- davida," the dance, with black lights and psyche­delic decor set the stage for a delightful skit presented by the pledges.

Founders' Day was celebrated with a delicious dinner and a history of the chap­ter, presented by historian Janet DiBucci . We were especially pleased to welcome back Mrs. Joan Klausing, former patron­ess and main speaker of the evening, who delivered a warm expression of "Friend­ship." Our new alumnae advisor Gayle Nicklas was also present at the dinner.

For Halloween, Taus at Delta were off and collecting for UNICEF in the Indi­ana community.

We were proud of pledge Gayle Ku­bany, when her selection as a Kaydeen brought even more honor to us. Janet Mastalski, too, has been a source of pride to Delta. For the second consecutive year, she was selected as a sponsor for the Pershing Rifles. This year Janet is an honorary captain.

Our Christmas project was especially

rewarding to us this year. At the request of alumna Linda Lewis, we collected toys and stuffed animals for the children at Ebensberg State Hospital, and then trav­eled there to join them in a Christmas party.

Shortly before initiation the pledges in­vited their big sisters to a turnabout party entitled "Taus and Stripes For­ever." Big sisters, dressed in red, white and blue, entertained their little sisters with games and stunts, and were then presented with their paddles.

We were happy to initiate 11 new sis­ters into our bond and to present Chris Smith with the "Outstanding Pledge" award.

Last, but certainly not least, we were proud to receive word that senior Marty Lynch was named to Who's Who in American Fraternities and Sororities.

As a new semester approaches, we once again anticipate such things as rush, our formal pledge dance and Greek weekend .

Zetas-S'tars of TV? Zeta chapter at Lock Haven State Col­

lege, Lock Haven, Pa., had a very busy and rewarding semester. One of our Alpha Sigma Tau service projects involved teaming up with the Tau Kappa Epsilon Fraternity. We participated in an hour long telephone program to raise money for the Salvation Army Christmas fund.

The program consisted of a band, Christmas skit, and singing Christmas carols. It was broadcast live over the local closed circuit television station in Lock Haven. We were well rewarded for our efforts when proceeds reached over $200.

The Zetas also participated in the rib­bon pinning of the new chapter of Alpha Sigma Tau at Shippensburg State Col­lege. For our Founders' Day celebration, we hoste sed the Alpha Xi Chapter from Mansfield. A dinner was held at the Fal­lon Hotel, and we were pleased to have Lock Haven's new college president, Doctor Hamblin, speak.

A Christmas dance was held at the Lock Haven Elk's Club for the sisters and their dates. "The Bethel," a local band, provided the mu ic for a very informal and wonderful evening. Mrs. Barth, our advisor, held a Christmas party for the sisters in her home.

The Zetas were also busy with rush and pledge activities. We were very happy to pledge 10 new sisters this semester. They are Susan Bard, Sarah

One week later, the Phi Mu Delta House was the scene of pledge pinning. The pledges held a party for the sisters. The theme of the party was a "Tau Cir­cus" and each sister had to dress appro­priately. Fun and games were in store for the sisters as each had to act as a circus character.

On December 13, Initiation took place at the Great Island Presbyterian Church. A party was held at an off-campus house in honor of the new sisters. Sarah Wallick wa named the Best Pledge.

Several of our sisters received special recognition this fall. Susan Payne was elected Homecoming Queen at King's College in Wilkes-Barre, Pa.

Wendy Dodson and Bard Y oos were chosen to represent Lock Haven on the Mid East 2 and Mid East 4 teams, respec­tively, in the National Hockey Tourna­ments held at Lancaster, Pa. Five senior were selected as entries into this year's Who's Who in American Colleges and Universities. They are Ree Bush, Nancy Burrell, Kathy Dugan, Patty Felix, and Susan Sobers.

Zetas have adopted the ' mou e" a our mascot. We have also selected a pat­tern for new spring and fall uniform . We hope to have these uniforms read for this spring.

Pride Fills Theta Theta chapter at Wayne State Uni­

vers~t~ ~n ?etroit, ushered in fall quarter by ImtJatmg four new members. They were Beverly Rumbus, Arlene Rudus, Carol Michalski and Kathy Elliot. We also welcomed a transfer student from Alpha chapter, Emmy Cassetta.

We all began fall quarter with a great sense of pride and enthusiasm. We were very P.roud of the honors, awards, and ac­complishments, not only those which our chapter received, but also those that indi­vidual members acquired .

We were especially excited about the awards that our chapter received at Con­vention. We took first place for our scrap­book and second place for efficiency. We were also proud of our Alumnae Adviser Mrs. Juanita Bouffard, who was a recipi~ ent of the Carrie W. Staehle Alumnae Adviser Award.

In addition to the awards received at Convention, Barbara Bojakowski last year's president of Theta, was selected to Who's Who in American Colleges and Universities. She was also the recipient of t he David D. Henry Award for leader­ship and service. Ingrid Flemming was named as one of t he five finalists for Homecoming Queen.

Theta Chapter, always active in the WSU Panhellenic Council, saw Risa Ber­man elected as secretary to the Council.

Our Founders' Day luncheon was a great success this year. Alpha Chapter and Alpha Theta Chapter helped us cele­brate at Carl's Chop House. Also present were the Detroit I and Detroit III Alum­nae Chapters, as well as the Ypsilanti­Ann Arbor Alumnae Chapter.

We were visited in the fall by our Dis­trict Vice-President, Mrs. R. B. Cross, who brought with her much encourage­ment and many helpful suggestions. Her visit and her assistance are now proving

ANCHOR

to be quite advantageous as far as the group is concerned.

We are also happy to welcome Mrs. Isabelle Kobernick as our new Fa ulty Adviser.

During t he break between fall and winter quarters, the ASTs kept them­selves quite busy. We had ice-skating parties and a party honoring our seven Big Brothers, Chuck Miller, Ray Nicosia, and Mark Weipert, of Sigma Pi Frater­nity; Mike Murphy, of Delta Sigma Pi Fraternity; David Pullium Mike Vartoo­gian, and Paul Weiman. 'The guest-of­honor at the party was our newly elected Huggy Bear, Chuck Busuito, of Delta Sigma Pi.

Plans are now in the making for our annual Dinner Dance, tentatively sched­uled for February 13 at the Kingsley Inn. The ASTs from Alpha and Alpha Theta Chapters will also attend. Theta Chapter is anxiously awaiting this event for it is not often that three chapter can get together and share the joys of being a part of Alpha Sigma Tau.

We ended fall quarter by sadly saying good-by to two seniors who graduated, Sonia Slobojan and Susan Tatus.

Pat Wilson was elected as junior rep­resentative and treasurer to the Union Activities Council, and Carmen Rupe starred in the college production of "Cele­bration." Several members participated in the Best Dressed Coed Contest and three Alpha Taus made finalists for the Miss Sunflower Contest : Marlene Y ar­mer, Connie Davison, and Molly Briscoe. Promoting spirit and enthusiasm were the cheerleaders of Emporia State from our chapter-Rosalind Williams, Carol Hast­ings, Penny Houghton and Carleen Miles.

Chapter members participated through­out the year in various activities and projects connected with the Retarded Children's Center, stemming from our na­tional service project of working with the emotionally disturbed children.

"rush" continued as we planned parties. Our theme was "Tau J oyland of Fun" with plenty of clowns, barkers and fun for all.

The results of rush were 10 pledges: Darla Compton, Loraine Hartman, Bar­bara Hawkins, Connie Jarrell, Carolyn Kriss, Francis Latousakis, Shannon Mc­Guire, Lorretta Riffe, Cathy Viers and Becky Weiss. Carolyn served as pre ident and was later selected best pledge. They presented all the actives with a iew of the wild west when they gave an A T or

Bust" big-little sis party. After much hard work, they also presented the build­ing fund with $70.

Homecoming then became our biggest concern and, with the help of Tau Kappa Epsilon fraternity , we spent many long days preparing a campaign for Diane Godfrey. Along with this we built a float that placed third in competition.

The most important date to all of us is November 4, and this year we cele­brated at Pipestem State Park. The Blue­field , Princeton-Athens, and Beckley Alumnae joined us and received many heartfelt thanks for their donations to help with our building fund.

Our chapter received many honors this semester. Among them were the election of Francis Latousakis as Sophomore class president and College Center Board sec­retary, and Malinda Maynard was soloist in the college Christmas concert and a member of a select group of 16 Chamber Singers who plan to tour in the spring. Membership was opened to Cathy Viers in Phi Beta Lambda, Carolyn Cunning­ham in Kappa Delta Pi and Alpha Psi Omega.

Pi Chapter Ranks High

As the leaves started to change colors, so did the activities of the sisters of Pi chapter at Harris Teachers College, St. Louis. The summer trips were over and the girls settled down to the task of es­tablishing the sorority as one of the high­est ranking fraternal organizations.

First honors this semester go to Carol Kalinauski-winner of a faculty scholar­ship for continued excellence in aca-

ANCHOR

demics. Hats off also to Donna Tabacchi for placing as second maid in this year's homecoming queen balloting.

For the sorority as a whole it was a very successful semester. This year, after several close finishes , we captured t he scholarship cup. This award is given an­nually to the top sorority in the school based on cumulative academic average. This is the first time in many years that AST has captured the cup and we're sure that it won't be the last time.

Our rush activity was especially suc­cessful as we added five pledges to Pi Chapter. A lot of planning went into our rush party but it was worth all the hard work because of the fine new members we acquired.

Socially, the year was very enjoyable, with mixers and parties with t he various fraternities and sororities in the school. Later in the year, our parents were hon­ored at our annual parents' day banquet.

The social highlight of the year was t he Founders' Day Banquet. We were invited by the Alpha Sigma Tau's national office, located in St. Louis, to attend and help celebrate our 72nd year as a sorority.

Politics played a big part in Pi Chap­ter's year. In the student congress and class officers elections we placed many of our members in important offices. The girls worked very hard canvassing votes and we were all quite pleased with the results.

Starting our new year off in a big way, we celebrated the wedding of our sister, Diane Givens.

Rho Chapter Has New Sorority Floor

Rho chapter - synonymous with fun and lots of hard work. To begin the new semester, at Southeastern State College, Durant, Okla. , the chapter has a sorority floor in a new, eight-story, tower dorm. It was painted in the green and gold of AST. The floor is completely furnished with a color television set, a clothes washer, and a refrigerator.

We have two lounges fully furnished with green and gold furniture. We are extremely proud of our floor because we have never been able to live together and enjoy the true sisterhood of AST. This is an experimental dorm; we are self-govern­ing and have our own house manager.

In September, we elected our beau,

Ronnie Bradley. Our pledges also elected a beau, Joe Ben Pruitt.

Fall rush brought Rho Chapter nine new members. As pledges, these girls worked very hard earning money so they could take the members on a good sneak.

The pledges entertained the members at a local restaurant by treating them to a meal consisting of barbeque and all the trimmings. Each member was then pre­sented a bracelet with a gold charm.

The members were then driven to a nearby lake cabin to spend the night. The cabin was decorated and full of delicious food.

The next month brought Homecoming to Southeastern, and the Taus worked hard on their float , "Dumbo Leads the Parade." After the football game, we sponsored our annual AST reception for alumnae. This year we were especially proud to present Kathleen Kelchner, na­tional student loan chairman, a bouquet of one dollar bills for the Ada A. Norton Alumnae A ward.

On November 4, Rho Chapter observed Founders' Day with a banquet at which Mrs. Hercel Harris was presented a silver tray inscribed with the letters of AST for

As a service project this semester we each worked for the local T.B. Center in Farmville. We also were hosts to a group of orphans from the Lynchburg Presby­terian Orphanage for a Christmas party.

When Longwood's fall festival , October­fest came around, many ASTs became in­volved in it. Debbie Remsburg and Mar­tha Gail Morrisett were chosen as Usher­ettes for the festivities and Dianne Ruling and Terry VanCantfort proved their gymnastic abilities as they joined in to be clowns. Shelly Clare aided in the success while serving as chairman of the activities for the Sophomore Class. The excitement of Octoberfest among ASTs was also shared when we entertained the orphans again with the fun-filled midway.

Another sister entered in the pageant, Debbie Vantrease, was chosen as second runner-up.

Besides rooting for our beautiful and talented sisters, we were able to make plans for fall rush, which began the third

30

week of school. Our first chance to meet the rushees was at an Ice Water Tea. This was followed by a Preferential Tea where we were able to show off our trophies, plaques and AST jewelry.

The next night was our traditional theme party, "Alpha Sigma Tau Gold Rush." This is everybody's favorite be­cause we really let ourselves go, and come dressed as cowboys, Indians and dance hall girls. Our formal party, "Alpha Sigma Tau is a Special Way of Feeling," brought rush week to a beautiful end.

The next day we welcomed 25 wonder­ful pledges into our hearts and sisterhood. Since then, we have given out three open bids, increasing that number to 28.

Homecoming Week was very exciting for Alpha Taus, as our float won first place in the beauty division for the fourth year in a row. But honors did not stop there, for Linda Dutchik was chosen Homecoming Queen and Ann Ferrell and Nina McNutt were chosen junior and freshman maids respectively.

Every year Pi Kappa Alpha Fraternity sponsors the Pike Follies. Each sorority participates in such events as a tug-of­war and tricycle race. This year Upsilon placed fifth .

When additional ROTC sponsors were chosen this year, two more Alpha Taus joined their five sisters who were selected last year. The new sponsors are Ann Fer­rell and Kay Allen.

Many individual honors were awarded Alpha Taus this semester. Amelia Skinner won first place in the Sigma Tau Gamma Body Beautiful contest. Royalty for the Toilet Bowl football game sponsored by Sigma Tau Gamma and Phi Lamba Chi fraternities included Vicki Smith, Jane Nemec and Mary Jane Hart.

Nancy Crary received the Rotary In­ternational Fellowship Award, entitling her to one year's expenses while studying in a Spanish speaking country. Eleven Alpha Taus made the Dean's List this semester. Diane Williams is our newly elected president and we know she will do an excellent job.

And for a delightful finish to an excit­ing semester, 12 pledges and 5 members

from the Alpha Epsilon chapter paid us a visit. We were thrilled at the chance to get to know our sisters from Illinois a little better. Our only regret was that they couldn't stay longer.

We are already into the swing of second semester, with a big Mardi Gras celebration planned for this spring.

These pledges were very active and en­thusiastic this year. As new pledges, the first task that they encountered was that of decorating and preparing for the home­coming parade.

All of the Phi girls were especially ex­cited since Susie Core, our sweetheart, had been chosen as the Homecoming Queen. These pledges also collected food for a Thanksgiving basket, which was given to a needy family in the Hammond area. In addition, they helped the mem­bers in a collection for the Hammond United Givers Fund and sponsored a Christmas Party for the members.

Psis Have an Exciting Senzester

The Psis of Madison College, Harrison­burg, Va., opened its new fall semester with a report of the 18th national conven­tion. The chapter had sent three dele­gates, Donna Farmer, Donna Morgan, and Kathryn Raes who became the runner-up to the Convention Queen. Psi was also honored for its silver anniversary and received a beautiful silver bowl to return to its campus.

The Psis had not been back to Madison very long before they were involved in the formal rush. The theme this year was "AST Carnival". When Walk finally came, Alpha Sigma Tau topped all the other sororities and gained 21 new pledges. Walk night was spent at College Camp on North River where the new pledges performed for the sisters.

In October AST was surprised by a party given by their "sister sorority" on campus, Sigma Sigma Sigma. Later that month the Psis became the host for a group of underprivileged children to help them enjoy Halloween. All the sisters dressed in costumes and fed cocoa and cake to the children while they played games and listened to ghost stories.

November opened with the celebration of Founders ' Day at Lloyd's Steak House on November 4. There were many alum­nae guests and the banquet was quite a success. On November 19, the pledges gave the sisters a party using the theme "Founding of the Psi Chapter of AST at Madison College." As the month neared its end a basket of food was collected for an underprivileged family in the commu­nity so they would have a Thanksgiving.

December began with the initiation of the pledges and of a new advisor, Mrs.

Elizabeth Jolly. A spaghetti dinner was given in their honor and many of the sisters who had been student teaching came back to campus for the occasion. Nancy Gorry was named the Outstanding Pledge.

At the end of the dinner the new initiates presented the chapter with a silver punch bowl and a new candle­stick box. The rest of the month was spent working with others in the Satur­day Adoption Program, the Panhellenic Christmas Dance, and food for their Christmas family.

Alpha Sigma Tau had several important honors bestowed on its members. The Sigma Phi Epsilon fraternity elected Donna Farmer, Marion Fox, Margo Sper­duti and Mary Fleming as "SPE Girls of a Golden Heart." Patricia Morris and Carolyn Stanley played for the Blue­Ridge Field Hockey Team and Carolyn made the Southeast Team.

Alpha Epsilons Go South

Lindy Hallquist Homecoming Court

The college that makes up fall quarter for the Alpha Epsilon chapter at Western Illinois University in Macomb gives a clear picture of hard work, enjoyment and a lot of fun!

The year began with several of our sisters chosen as freshmen counselors to help incoming students adjust to college life. Immediately following, informal rush became our major concern. The prepara­tions included remodeling of rooms, writ­ing and learning of new songs and making movies to share with rushees. Our en­thusiasm and spirit were well rewarded

34

when we proudly welcomed 13 new pledges.

Football became our next conquest as the men of Tau Kappa Epsilon sponsored their annual Powder Puff football tourna­ment. After numerous grueling sessions, and a great many bruises and small in­juries, the Alpha Taus cheered their team on to a second place victory.

Along with "brawn" comes "beauty" as was displayed in this year's Home­coming festivities. The Taus were proud to have Lindy Hallquist and Pat Morri­son chosen as queen candidates . We were even prouder when Lindy, our President, represented the Alpha Taus on the Home­coming Court. A bit of pride could also be felt as Monica Vojtas, Caryn Poslu­szny, and Debbie Summer lot led the band as this year's twirlers for Western. Not only did honors add to our Homecoming spirit, but also the excitement of wel­coming back a great many of our alumnae sisters.

Our annual Founders' Day was cele­brated with a formal dinner and the can­dlelighting service.

Several money-making projects kept us busy throughout the quarter as we or­ganized a rummage sale, and used our persuasion in selling candy and station­ary. The pledges showed a great deal of responsibility in setting up their annual Penny Queen dance.

The highlight of our quarter was a visit to our Upsilon sisters in Conway, Ark. For five seniors, the trip proved a total surprise as our 13 pledges cleverly stole them. We found the "land of cotton" an exciting time and were more than impressed with the hospitality of our "Southern" sisters. Thankful for the chance of seeing universal sisterhood, we are hoping to share our home with Upsi­lon this spring!

The quarter was a happy and fun­filled one for Alpha Epsilon and a re­warding one as well. A it comes to a close, we anticipate spring hoping for a true renewal of the spirit of Alpha igma Tau: the beauty of sisterhood manife ted in all of our work and fun!

Alpha Etas Get a Flying Start

This year got off to a flying start for the Alpha Etas of Alma College, Alma, Mich., with our homecoming float de­picting the balloon that took us around the world. The float went along with the theme of the day, "Great Inventions."

Fall rush followed resulting in eight new actives: Debby Altomare, Becky Bentzen, Tina Guster, Jana Lunger, Jane Millar, Debby Moon, Diana Orr and Becky Seyferth.

The "OctASTies" found pledging a unique experience, including a Halloween party, where actives ate apples injected with red and green streaks. The pledge period ended with "Under the Sea" as the theme of the pledge party.

The year 1970 was a special one for Sheryl Robertson, who was chosen Sweetheart of the Delta Gamma Tau Fraternity.

A Saturday morning brunch was held for all the sisters and their patronesses.

Christmas time found the Alpha Etas caroling at the Michigan Masonic Home located in Alma.

The new officers for 1971 include: President, Vicki McAlister; Vice Presi­dent, Sherry Leonard; Recording Secre­tary, Becky Good; Corresponding Secre­tary. Diane D 'Arcy; Treasurer, Jame Mc­Leod, and Pledge Mistress, Jenny Branch.

We are all looking forward to spring rush and our annual all-campus Valen­tine's Day dance, "Amo Te."

Alpha Theta for the (Independent Girl'

Our return to the University of Detroit campus this fall found our numbers di­minished, but not our spirit. Sue Zakr­zewski and Pat McMahon brought many new rush ideas back from Convention.

With the theme of "AST for the Inde­pendent Girl" we opened rush with a pop­corn party in the dorms. This and sub­sequent rush parties brought us three pledges.

The semester was highlighted by va­rious social events. A costume party at Halloween provided a delightful evening for us, especially when everyone tangled in a hilarious game of Twister. Founders' Day and a Christmas party filled out the rest of the social calendar.

Also on the semester's agenda was the Sweetheart elections. Our new sweet­hearts are: Tuff Tau, Greg of Phi Kappa Theta ; Vice-Tau, Gary of Tau Kappa Epsilon, and Huggy-Bear, Frank of the Saint Francis club.

Speaking of sweethearts, Sue Zakr­zewski and Maureen Gwizdala have said "Yes" to the big question and are plan­ning August and October weddings re­spectively. Incidentally, Sue's fiance is former AST Vice-Tau Dave Roman.

The semester closed with a good wish and a good-by to graduating seniors Fran Novak and Maureen Gwizdala.

As the new semester begins, we are looking forward to the end of rush and new pledges, and to the big event of the year-Dinner Dance.

Alpha Kappas Place at Convention

Toronto was the scene for Alpha Kappas winning. Our two delegates at convention, Linda Mumma and Donna Rockcastle carried home honors for first place in efficiency and first place music award.

The beginning of the fall semester at Marietta College, Marietta, Ohio, brought two new pledges: Joanne Bloom and Marjorie Hartong. Mrs. Donald Frail also was initiated as faculty adviser.

We were hostesses to M.C.'s campus community at our open house, "The H.O.P.E. Comes to Holland." Next we entertained Marietta's men with our original Homecoming serenade "A New Day Dawning." Donna Rockcastle was featured singing songs with contemporary themes .

During formal rush the ASTs pre­sented "Good Grief, Charlie Brown!" Judi Billetter portrayed Charlie, with Judy Ferretti as Linus, Sue Clegg as Snoopy, Pam Bond as Lucy, Sue Metzger as Patty, and Barb Perry as Schroeder. This brought 13 new pledges to our house: Helen Anderson, Janet Chase, Karen Clark, Debbie Denman, Jeannie Fowler, Pat Hatch, Nancy Kavula, Kathy

We also are very proud to announce the initiation of three new sisters: Karen Berger, Cindy Brouwer and Beth Daniels.

On November 4, Dr. Weber, a member of the Education Department at Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State Univer­sity, was guest speaker at our Founders' Day Banquet. We were also delighted to have as guests "Mommie" Blanche Daniel and Dr. Irvin Silverman. The Farm House in Blacksburg proved to be an ideal set­ting for the observance of this event.

For our cultural program on November 18, Mrs. Katherine Jones helped each of us to better understand ourselves and others through her topic "Personality." "Even though a group is made up of many different personalities, all are a contrib­uting factor to the total personality of the group," she explained.

Alpha Lambda began the Christmas season by sending Christmas cards pur­chased from the MAEDC, an organiza­tion supported by our National Social Service Project. To promote the Christ­mas spirit we joined other sororities on campus for an evening of caroling. We continued the Christmas season with an always pleasurable visit with Mommie Daniel.

We would like to thank the pledges for a wonderful Christmas party. Here we entertained and presented gifts to our adopted family . Afterwards we journeyed to the Radford Hospital where we sang songs and gave candy and gifts to the children.

Throughout the Fall, Alpha Lambdas have been taking an underprivileged child to and from nursery school. This has been quite a worthwhile project for both pledges and sisters.

Congratulations from all of us to Alpha Lambda pledge Ann Amend who has been elected President of Radford College Stu­dent Government and Alpha Lambda sis­ter Besty Coombs our new Student Body Vice-President.

A rear of Honors for Alpha Mus

For their 1970 fall rush, the Alpha Mus of Arkansas A & M, College Heights, brought rushees roaring back to the Twent ies. The Alpha Mus mourned the loss of Sweet Tootsie with "The Wake," the defying of prohibition, and our party depicted as an early century saloon, com­plete with (root) beer, pretzels, chorus girls and a floor show. .

Freely flowing chatter coupled wtth fun and laughter and a floor strewn with multi-colored balloons, helped bring about an atmosphere of ease and con­geniality for the rushees. The rushees heartily joined the Alpha Taus in several dance numbers (all the charleston, of course), then a special performance was given by Patricia Tyson as AI Capone, and Judy Jones as his "girlfriend" and dancing partner. Patsy Hubbard stole the show by winning the beauty contest, stripping down to the bare essentials- a 1920's swimsuit.

After the party, the rushees were in­vited to join the Alpha Taus in t heir

sorority room. We easily filled several minutes with humor and nostalgia, with anecdotes of incidences and experiences, of both present AST members and our alumnae sisters.

Our rush efforts were rewarded as we received three wonderful pledges through open bid, Martha Craig, Wanda Divine and Cathy Huskie.

In September, Alpha Mu Nancy Ben­son, Miss Arkansas A & M, captivated audiences at the Miss Arkansas pageant, placing among the Top Ten. Nancy is also the reigning Miss Daisie Mae of Arkansas. In another pageant, Linda Her­rington placed as second runner up to Miss Ashley County.

Several Alpha Mus were included in this year's homecoming royalty at A & M. President Donna Forrest, Beth Burch­field , Linda Herrington and Kathy Crist were four of eight homecoming maids. The Alpha Mu Chapter of Alpha Sigma

Tau adds to its collection of honorary plaques by meriting this year's scholar­ship award. The Alpha Mus placed first academically of all Greek organizations on campus by having the highest average grade point.

In December, we elected new officers for the Alpha Mu Chapter. They include the following : President, Donna Forrest; Vice President, Beth Burchfield; Secre­tary, Cathy Cingolani; Treasurer, Patsy Hubbard ; Rush Chairman, Nancy Ben­son; Pledge Trainers, Patricia T yson and Dianne Lord.

Fall Filled With Activities for Alpha Xi

Fall semester for the Alpha Xi chapter at Mansfield State College, Mansfield, Pa., contained a full agenda. It started with plans for rushing prospective pledges. "Up, Up and Away, with AST" was the theme of our rush party.

Five new rushees were chosen to walk with the emerald and gold as our pledges. They were: Joyce Davis, Beti Kearns, Donna Neimeister, Debi Ralston and Karen Suleski.

Homecoming at M.S.C. came soon af­terwards. We all worked hard on our float entit led, "AST 's Little Miss Muffet." One of our sisters, Delmar Ratkowski, was chosen to be on the Homecoming Court

and a chance to get acquainted with our sisters.

Initiation of our new sisters was a happy occasion. We celebrated with a banquet afterwards. Our new sisters then presented us with a large wooden AST plaque, a magazine rack, floor pillows, and AST banks for each sister.

December was one of our busiest months. It started off with each sister filling a Christmas stocking for an under­privileged child in the Mansfield area. We then helped Phi Sigma Epsilon Fraternity with their annual Christmas Party for other underprivileged children .

We also decor a ted our lounge for the Christmas festivities, for which we won first prize in the competition. Christmas Panorama was next in our activities. In this, each club and group on campus put on a short act to express what Christmas means to them.

Alpha Xi chapter chose "The March of the Tin Soldiers." It took much time and work to prepare for the show. All of the practice proved to be worth it, for we won second prize. There were screams, tear, and hugs, and then singing on the way back to the lounge where we celebrated with a Christmas Party.

Before vacation we made and delivered a Christmas card to every Freshman girl on campus. After Christmas break, we held a farewell party for our leaving seniors. They gave us a large green carpet for our lounge.

Alpha Omicron Has A Busy Semester

The Taus at Clarion State College, Clarion, Pa ., proved to have a very busy fall semester full of work, fun and awards.

We worked very hard on our float for Homecoming. Even though Homecoming Day was ruined because of the downpour of rain, we added a bit of sunshine by winning the first place trophy the second year in a row. Also our dampened spirits were lifted when Susie Caylor was se­lected Phi Sigma Kappa Moonlight Girl.

Before we knew it, rush was upon us. Our formal party, "Sleepy Time Tau" re­warded us with 14 new pledges. We spread blankets and stuffed animals all over the floor for a slumber party. All the sisters and rushees dressed up in pajamas and some of the sisters performed a skit about the indecision all rushees go through. We closed the party with a friendship ceremony where each rushee received a wish pillow to sleep on and help her decide which sorority she really wanted. All this did the trick for the 14 AST pledges.

Founders' Day found all the sisters and pledges at a banquet catered by the cafe­teria. The sextet provided entertainment along with Dean Mellon who spoke on Women's Liberation. That weekend all the sisters and their dates enjoyed them­selves at an old-fashioned hay ride and bonfire out in the country.

The sisters all along had been working hard to get our new suits done by color day in November. The suits are made of an emerald green wool jacket and skirt. A yellow and green plaid vest and yellow blouse added the finishing touches to gain us many compliments.

For our service projects, each sister spent two hours a month working for cerebral palsied and mentally retarded

39

children at a local clinic. Our work here led to Barb Day being chosen community chairman for Clarion County for Cerebral Palsy. All the Taus joined in the 53 minute march for Cerebral Palsy and col­lected over $900.

We weren't quite through marching though. We helped all the other frater­nities and sororities collect for the March of Dimes.

Our pledges did their share of collecting too. For their pledge project they col­lected pennies for the expansion of the town hospital.

Alpha Omicron Chapter was invited to help pledge Beta Delta colony at Du­quesne University, Pittsburgh, Pa. We spent the day with them in Pittsburgh.

Five sisters were honored by the col­lege recently. Janet Peters and Cathy Wildnauer were selected to Who's Who in American Colleges and Universities. Kathleen McGrath, Julie Mihelcic and Blanche Smigielski were selected for membership in Kappa Delta Pi, a na­tional honorary education fraternity.

The formal rush party embraced a Zodiac theme, Tau­rus. Monogrammed champagne glasses served as our Preferential Tea favors.

Homecoming incorporated interest and industry. A third place trophy was added

to our chapter room for our efforts. The float featured Charlie Brown and his base­ball team of Linus and Snoopy.

This year 15 sisters from Edinboro State College visited us during home­coming and contributed to our float build­ing. We also celebrated Founders' Day with the Edinboro Taus in Erie.

Adrienne Young took a second place at the annual Lambda Chi Alpha Go-Go Contest. For the third consecutive year Theta Xi Fraternity awarded a pledge paddle to us for having the best pledge class.

Alpha Pis captured a few honors on their own. President Joanne Genova was tapped by Lambda Epsilon Delta and Kappa Delta Pi . Georgeann Chengery is a member of Mu Kappa Gamma, the mu­sic honorary. Donna Williamson, Presi­dent of Associated Women Students, Joanne Genova, and Janie Homer are members of Who's Who in American Col­leges and Universities. Alice Peters is a member of Sigma Tau Delta, the honor­ary English Fraternity.

This year the winter formal was the Voyager Inn, Franklin, Pa. , "Silver Bells" certainly did ring with a surprise visit from Mr. and Mrs. Santa Claus.

A Halloween Party with the Lambda Chi Alpha Fraternity for the professors' children was injected into the Taus' social life. In conjunction with the United States Marine Corps Reserve Toys for Tots Campaign, the sisters collected old toys for Christmas.

Alpha Pis sponsored a baby contest to raise money for charity. The winner was Theta Xi Fraternity.

Alpha Rho Prospers Together

Here at Youngstown State University, Youngstown, Ohio, the sisters in the Alpha Rho chapter had a busy fall quar­ter preparing for several exciting campus events.

The second week of fall quarter, we sparkled with energy participating in Greek Week. At the carnival, we sold pizza and rootbeer from our booth built by the Kappa Sigmas. An informal dance and concert were among the other fes­tivities .

Immediately following Greek Week, the ASTs were proud to place Rose Mary Putarek on Homecoming Court.

After the exciting informal rush parties, we were happy to pin pledge four pledges: Cathie Carnie, Maria Franceschelli, Wendy Sammarone and Debbi Wunder­lieh. Cathie Carnie is a member of S. N. E. A. and Maria Franceschelli be­longs to the Italian and Spanish Club. The Eta Pledge Class presented two so­cial service projects to neighborhood hos­pitals, as well as to Pine Mountain.

The pledges spent many hours on an AST green and gold felt banner, they presented as their gift to the sorority. The pledges also held a Big Sister Tea and invited all the sisters to attend the function at the house.

Alpha Rho started a new tradition this fall by awarding a Pledge of the Week, for every week of pledging. A recently graduated alumna, Pam Hilborn, sug­gested the idea. She then contributed an engraved, silver, AST lavaliere, as the Pledge of the Week Necklace.

On November 10, we celebrated Found­ers' Day with a banquet. We were priv­ileged to have two national representa­tives present : Alumnae Representative

Alpha Taus Looks Ahead to

Prosperous Spring

This fall marked an exciting, as well as, a busy time for the Alpha Taus on the Edinboro State College campus, Edin­boro, Pa. Having been separated all sum­mer, the sisters again became a big family away from home, when the fall semester began.

With 20 sisters student teaching this semester our active membership was rather limited, but this in no way pre­vented the Alpha Taus from achieving unity and accomplishing many new feats. Cooperation has enabled the sisters to work together and think together to make the chapter an outstanding one on the Edinboro State College campus.

One of the first activities the Alpha Taus planned to start out the fall se­mester was a trip to the Alpha Pi chapter at Slippery ·Rock State College, Slippery Rock, Pa., for their homecoming week­end. The Edinboro football team badly bruised the Slippery Rock team, but the ASTs were one big family, cheering for opposite sides, and displaying their colors of green and gold.

The Alpha Taus then invited the Alpha Pis to Edinboro's campus for their cele­bration of Founders' Day. We were also very happy Mrs. Sally Wales, district vice president, was able to celebrate Founders' Day with us. A luncheon at the Sara Coyne in Erie was held, after which Mrs. Wales led us in a candlelight service.

Homecoming is always a big event at Edinboro, and this year was no exception. But contrary to the past records the foot­ball team was the be t we have ever had.

42

Edinboro went all the way to gain the Pennsylvania Conference championship and winning the Lambert Bowl.

Alpha Taus were enthusiastic and dis­played optimum school spirit backing the team all the way with green and gold. Our t heme for homecoming was Allegheny Airlines and the Alpha T aus took the Chairman's Emeritus trophy with their replica of the old Allegheny airline. A tea was given for isters, alumnae, parents and friends following the football game.

Immediately after the homecoming ex­citement, plans had to be made for the start of formal rush. Our fall rush party had a its theme, "Alpha Taus Tip Toe Through the Tulips and Other Assorted Flowers." The general atmosphere was to get to know each other.

Twelve rushees were given bids and during the pledge period many activities engaged the soon- to- be- sisters. Among these were shoe-shines, and running va­rious types of errands, but the climax was the pledge dance held at the Stable Pit and Pub on Conneautt Lake, Pa. High­lights of the evening were the presenta­tion of awards: sisters to pledges, and pledges to sisters. Carolyn Occhuizzo was recognized by the sisters as being the best pledge.

On December 16, Alpha Tau initiated 12 new sisters: Nora Boyko, Allyson Dill, Deb Dowling, Rita Kereszturi, Kathy Kummick, Millie Morrocco, Carolyn Oc­chuizzo, Donna Soulier, Sally Staugh, Kame Stright, Pat Torkar and Deb Zappa.

For our social service project this year the Alpha Taus visited the Exceptional Children's Home. Candy canes were dis­tributed and Christmas carols were sung.

After a much needed Christmas vaca­tion the Alpha Taus were ready to meet finals and the spring semester with much more enthusiasm and confidence. We have tried to cooperate with intersorority activities and to make our chapter one that Edinboro State College can be proud to say is on its campus. With so much gusto we are indeed on our way to ac­complishing many new feat in the pring.

Alpha Upsilon engages in compet­itive on-campus sports with other sororities and also participates in com­petitive activities sponsored by other members of the G LC. In October, AU president Mari­lyn Mazzacone, se­lected by the broth­ers of Delta Sigma

lon chapter reunited at the Bryant Col­lege campus in Providence, R.I. - soon they feel they've never been away - back to routine with registration, classes, stacks of books, plenty of homework - and an "instant" sorority meeting!

Wasting no time swinging back into the social scene, the sisters co-sponsored "A Musical Happening." This was the first of nine weekends planned by the Greek Letter Council (GLC) for the 1970-71 school year. The weekend included a dance featuring Metropolis, a local rock group, and a concert featuring the Beacon Street Union.

Combining ideas and artistic talents, Alpha Upsilon constructed a very attrac­tive exhibit for the GLC Open House. With its colorful programs, designed by rush chairman Robin Goltsman, its tro­phies and awards from past years, and its scenes from the AST National Conven­tion, the display received favorable atten­tion at this freshman-focused event.

Highlighting sorority activities was Alpha Upsilon's annual smoker. After se­lecting "AST Showboat" for the theme,

Phi fraternity, and Steve Mangold, Alpha Upsilon's candidate, competed as our Personality couple in the Mr. and Miss Personality competition. Diane Ronci was pianist on the evening of the Personality judging.

In November, Alpha Upsilon's sisters Barbara Androkavitz, Nancy Harris, Diane Marcotte, and Marilyn Mazzacone participated in the annual Pig Chase. Marilyn caught the greased pig in record time, thus placing AST first among soror­ities.

AST girls are also involved in many worthwhile campus organizations. Susan Caudy is a member of the Women's Resi­dence Association. Jean Jakubowski and Marilyn Mazzacone are active in the GLC. Marilyn is also secretary of the senior class. Margaret Splaine is a floor counselor in her dormitory and a member of the Parietal Committee. Diane Ronci a member of the college yearbook staff, was a delegate to the Ninth Annual Busi­ness Symposium sponsored by the Rhode Island Chamber of Commerce.

sisters held a small, informal party at which time gifts were exchanged. The traditional Christmas Tea was the final sorority event of 1970. For this occasion a tree was trimmed with ornaments hand­decorated by Barbara Labossiere and Delores Nowak.

January graduates of Bryant College of Business Administration were Karen Ginsburg, who received a B.S. degree in secretarial science and who is presently studying at Albany State for a master's degree in teacher education, and Nancy Harris, who received a B.A. degree in ac­counting.

Kathleen Goglinski was chosen to rep­resent the brothers of Delta Sigma Phi in the Sno' Queen competition.

Alpha Upsilon sisters are especially grateful to Mrs. Perry Bernstein, a mem­ber of the Bryant College faculty and our sorority advisor, for her sincere interest in AST. We also appreciate the loyalty of the many alumnae sisters who support our activities.

Our formal rush began with an open house party. "Alpha Tau West" was the theme of AST's second rush party. It was held in a typical western saloon setting. As the rushees entered, they were given poker chips to use at various games.

The next night we took our rushees to France where they were entertained at the "Tau Paree" nightclub. Gyp ie Rose Lee and can-can dancers performed. The ru hees also had a chance to meet a local arti t who drew picture for them. A a remembrance of their Pari trip, the rushee were gi en T hampagn glas e .

Our last rush party, "Rose Reflection," was more formal with all our members wearing long green skirts . A candlelight friendship ceremony was performed and the rushees were presented yellow roses.

Our efforts were rewarded with four new pledges. The colony welcomed them into our sisterhood at a pizza party.

Other activities in the early part of the semester included a Homecoming tea for alumnae and faculty and Dad's day .

For Halloween we collected candy for children in the neighboring hospital. We also helped the Muscular Dystrophy drive by selling tickets and collecting money at the MD dance on campus.

In November we listened to a demon­stration by a local make-up consultant. She showed the art of putting on make-up properly and used one of our pledges as a model.

The highlight of the season was the formal Christmas dance. Gag presents were exchanged at this time.

Alpha Psi also has been busy with money making projects . In fact we have become famous on campus for our bake sales . But to add a little variety to our projects we also sold stationery at the Student Union.

Alpha 01negas Stress Social Service

Alpha Omega chapter, Brooklyn Col­lege, Brooklyn, N . Y., has done several new and exciting things this term. The most memorable was probably the week-

ANCHOR

end trip to Boston to visit a sister chapter. For the first time, we all realized the

true meaning of being a national sorority. The girls were so warm, they immediately made us feel comfortable, and we cannot thank them enough. Incidentally, we roughed it in a Girl Scout cabin!

This semester we've also tried to do quite a bit in the way of social service. Every year we hold a Christmas party for the kids at the Williamsburg Settle­ment House. We bring candy, play games, hold contests and give out prizes.

We also raised over $200 to help build a school for special children, and we are the proud foster parents of an American Indian.

In addition to raising money for social service projects, we have also had to raise money for our chapter! This was done with the help of our Annual Mother Goose Ball. The highlight of this dance, which we run together with Phi Lambda Delta Fraternity, is the contest in which people dressed as Mother Goose characters com­pete for the most original costumes.

The last event of the fall term was the sorority Christmas party. We began hav­ing them two years ago and it seems to have become a tradition. Putting up and trimming the tree is naturally the best part, and we also exchange gifts in a grab bag.

Aside from all our activities, our chap­ter has tried something new concerning sorority itself: we have changed pledging. Instead of spending a meaningless six weeks serving sorors and earning merits, the pledges are simply required to get to know their sorority sisters.

At the end of the pledging period, they must have the signatures of most of the sorors . A soror signs a book only when she feels she really knows a pledge. This system has worked well for us. The tra­ditional practice of pledging has become rather outdated, and if sorority wants to continue to be a relevant part of college life, certain aspects of it need to be changed. Otherwise, it will inevitably fade from the campus.

11eta 11eta JSras Only Just 11egun

Beta Betas returned to Penn Morton College, Chester, Pa., for what proved to be an exciting and l::usy semester. Dele­gates to the Convention returned with new ideas for our chapter and a first place music award which is now displayed in our sorority room.

Fall rush parties included a "Sleepy Time Tau" pajama party at which time the sisters demonstrated their acting abil­ities in a skit. The party was a success and we obtained two pledges : Claire Stopyra and Beth Council. Eight hectic weeks later, they became the newest sisters of Beta Beta chapter.

It was a great Homecoming Weekend for the Alpha Taus as we won the best overall float award for "A Whale of a Victory." Congratulations go to Darryl Kinney, Linda Chapman and Claire Stopyra who worked long and hard to make the float the success that is was.

We are very proud of our sisters who are among the most active on campus. Gail Graham, Kathleen Getkowski and Linda Chapman were elected to the Alpha Chi Honor Society for high scholarship. Congratulations go to Darryl Kinney who holds the high honor of being elected to Who's Who and to Claire Stopyra who was on the Homecoming Court.

Gail Graham became captain of the cheerleading squad for the second year. Our best wishes and good luck go to Jean Spangler who will assume the duties of President in February.

Beta Beta served many social service projects such as UNICEF and the Heart Drive. Our own project was making ar­ticles to sell at a boutique around the

46

campus. Some of the best sellers were stuffed animals, belts, scarfs and beads.

We are looking with much anticipation to the Spring semester for bigger and better things for Beta Beta chapter but then we've only just begun.

Fall Rush Beginning in September with our Car­

nival show, fall semester for Beta Delta, Duquesne University, Pittsburgh, Pa., was an exciting and busy one.

Fall rush consisted of the University Round Robin and our own informal and formal rush parties. Since we are newly organized this was our first rushing ex­perience. We were proud, however, to ac­cept our first three pledges. A group of sisters from Clarion State College trav­eled here to Pittsburgh to conduct the pin and ribbon pledging ceremonies on December 12.

As our Christmas project, Beta Delta held a party at the Home for Crippled Children. It was complete with refresh­ments, presents, and of course, Santa!

Beta Epsilon Begins First rear

September brought the beginning of the first fun-filled year for the Beta Epsi­lon Colony at Shippensburg State Col­lege, Shippensburg, Pa.

The first few weeks of the term proved rather hectic with the planning of money­making projects and rush parties. The first pledge class was selected and the rib­bon and pin pledging ceremonies were performed by our sisters from Lock Haven and West Chester State Colleges.

During the Homecoming festivities , the members of Alpha Sigma Tau proudly took their place among the other Greeks. It was quite an honor to be recognized as the first national sorority on campus. Founders' Day, on November 4, was a stimulating cultural experience with Betty Lu Morgan, dean of women, speak­ing on fraternal life.

In the near future , AST will be par­ticipating in both Greek Week and All­College Week. The proceeds from Greek Week will be donated to the Heart Fund. This, along with our project of visiting the local Day Care Center, are just some of the services we perform.

Special recognition must be given to Cindy Snyder and Kathy Slywczuk who were chosen as sweethearts of Sigma Pi Fraternity and Sigma Tau Gamma Fra­ternity, respectively. Also, Jeanne Pap­pas, our president, is now reigning as Miss Shippensburg State College.

Alpha Nu Takes Sweepstakes Trophy

The fall term was a busy and exciting one for the Alpha Nu sisters at Central Missouri State College, Warrensburg, Mo.

We began the fall with money-making projects : a carwash, doughnut sales and bake sales.

All this time we were busy with prepa­rations for homecoming. Our homecoming queen candidate was Barbara Friend. Our float, a 50-foot locomotive and coal car entitled "Railroad the Bulldogs" won the centennial Sweepstakes Trophy and $100 in cash.

After the excitement of the homecom­ing game, we had an Alumnae Tea. It was great fun to see the alumnae and talk about the fun we had in AST.

Between homecoming and formal rush, we celebrated our National Founders' Day with a candle lighting service.

Before we could catch our breath we were involved in formal rush. Our first round party was entitled "Emerald City," and our second round party was entitled "Around the World with AST." Through our efforts we welcomed into our sister­hood Vicki Kozlin, Bette McGinnis, Cathie Bainer and Carol Atkins.

At the present, our key word is "rush." Barb Austin, our Rhetor queen candidate, also was honored by being selected for "Who's Who in Greek Sororities and Fraternities." Bette McGinnis is our can­didate for Sigma Tau Gamma calendar queen.

During spring term we look forward to our Yellow Rose formal , Parents Day Picnic and Senior Breakfast.

Coffeehouse Project for A !ph a Sigma

Alpha Sigma at Northeast Missouri State College, Kirksville, Mo., began the fall semester with convention reports from queen candidate Pat Snapp.

During rush season, Alpha Sigma en­tertained rushees at t he informal Mad Hatter's Ball and the formal Wishing party. Seven girls were pin pledged, and five were initiated as actives in February.

Our chapter had several honors this year. Mary Kay Ellerbrock's song, "All of Us," won third place at national con­vention. Phyllis Scott and Janette Stoffa were elected to Who's Who in American Colleges and Universities.

Phyllis Scott was elected president of Cardinal Key. Mary Stout was our can­didate for Homecoming queen and was chosen to be on the College basketball team. Georgia Voehl was Mardi Gras queen candidate. Georgia Voehl, Roseann Giammetta, Shelly Krink, and Cheryl Martin were Echo queen candidates and Cheryl Martin was semi-finalist. An as­sistantship in mathematics was awarded to Ruth Angel Miller, '70.

Alpha Sigma is carrying out work project to finance the annual Yellow Rose formal , Alpha Cen-tau-ri. A tentative project is sponsorship of a college coffee­house.

~Beckley ... Alumnae Chapter

Reactivated After many years of inactivity the

Beckley Alumnae Chapter has reorgan­ized. We have had an exciting time, thus far this year. Mrs. Fern Phipps, National Housing Chairman, met with us to help with our reorganization on September 19. She was quite an inspiration, espe­cially when she told us about the girls in Omicron buying a lot, with plans in the future for a lodge to be built on it. Dur­ing our college days, we were all mem­bers of Omicron Chapter and have been looking forward to this endeavor for some time. With the goal of helping Omi­cron Chapter and for the fellowship with one another, we bravely began reactiva­tion.

Our October meeting was held at the home of Mrs. Patricia Peters, during which we had an exciting demonstration on wig styling and care. A representative from the local School of Hair Design pre­sented the program. Officers were elected for the year. They are as follows: Mrs. Patricia Peters, president; Mrs. Monica Long, vice president; Mrs. Barbara W ol­man, treasurer; and Mrs. Carolyn Bailey, secretary.

In November, the Beckley group at­tended the Founders' Day banquet at Pipestem State Park. The newly, opened park is one of the most beautiful vacation spots in the nation. At the banquet, we gave Omicron Chapter one hundred dol­lars. This was almost all the money in our treasury, which Miss Ida Pitotti had so faithfully attended to for so many years of inactivity. We are now definitely "starting from scratch".

Our December meeting was held at the Appalachian Power Company. The home economist showed us the new mi­crowave oven and demonstrated its use. From the samples it seems to be the best way to cook. She also demonstrated many Christmas decorating ideas.

50

Our future meetings will feature slides from Africa presented by an area for­ester; movies on child rearing presented by Miss Rena Pitotti, an AST; and a spaghetti dinner compliments of Ida and Rena Pitotti.

Mrs. Doyle, our district vice president, has been very helpful through her cor­respondence. We are looking forward to her visit in the spring.

Chapter have brought honor to them­selves and to the sorority. Jane Patsel (Mrs . Ralph) was included in the 1970 edition of Outstanding Educators of America and Ruth Shelton (Mrs. Duane) was included in the latest edition of Out­standing Young Women of America. See special articles in this edition of The Anchor for more information.

Our August picnic was held at the Glenwood Park Recreational Area. Spe­cial guests included alumna Virginia P reston Hutchinson, presently Dean of Women at Muskingum College, New Concord, Ohio, former member, Virginia Bailey, who teaches in Florida, and Pres­ton Hamilton and sons Bob, a freshman at Virginia Polytechnic Institute, and Steve.

Bula McNeill and Dr. Meade invited us to dinner at their home in Athens in September. Romaine Kanode Robertson of Bethlehem, Pennsylvania was a sur­prise guest when she came by to renew old friendships.

Lorene Jarrett was ho tess for a bu i­ness meeting in October. Lorene' home is filled with the most beautiful antiqu and we alway look forv ard to m ting with her.

Ruth Shelton was hostess for the No­vember dinner for members and hus­bands or guests. There were twenty-one in attendance, with Meade and Bula Me­N eill and Preston, Bob and Steve Ham­ilton as special guests. Stationery de­signed by Gwen Frostic of Michigan was given out to members to be sold as a money making project.

During December Mildred Warden and Lorene Jarrett visited the Graham Ex­ceptional School, and Mildred provided Christmas decorations for the classroom of her son, Bryan, who is one of the teachers . Mildred was also hostess for our December meeting, and her beauti­fully decorated home made Christmas seem on the way. We again brought gifts for a teen-age girl and outfitted her from top to toe. Joyce Buchanan provided favors for each member of our group, made during her leisure time when she isn't busy being teacher, mother, and housewife.

Jean McNamara, Mary Bolton and Sally Wales reported on the Conven­tion in Toronto followed by brief reports from the local convention committee chairmen.

Helene Blackledge entertained the board members at her home later in Sep­tember.

In October, Helene was chairman of a cooking demonstration of party foods prepared by the Dairy Council of the Ni­agara Frontier. This event was held to benefit our local social service project.

Each year our members assist the emo­tionally disturbed and retarded children of the West Seneca State School in some particular way specified by the staff of the school.

Catherine Crocuston was hostess for the October dessert meeting. Miss Bessie Malamas, a member of the National Or­ganization for Women, presented an in­teresting and informative program about this organization.

Our annual Founders' Day luncheon was held in November at the Prime Rib Restaurant. Carolyn Doleman and Flor­ence Gardner were chairmen of this lovely event. After a very delicious lunch, we enjoyed a slide presentation entitled "A Glimpse of the Orient". Mrs. Miriam Fournier enlightened us all with an en­tertaining account of her recent visit.

In December, Janet Bartlett was chair­man of our buffet supper and Christmas party held at the Old Red Mill.

Renewing acquaintances, meeting the people behind the photos and names in the Anchor, making new friends are the best part of convention. The festive events, the sobering ceremonials and the sights of a new city are the pluses. These memories of Toronto were shared with sisters and friends when Juanita Bouff­ard, Joanne Dailey, Barbara Davis, Mary Franzen, Diane Peters and Rose Marie Schmidt returned from the AST conven­tion. Detroit I was proud of Juanita Bouffard who was one of the recipients of the Carrie W. Staehle Alumnae Ad­viser Award.

51

A central location, good food and a thought-provoking speaker were the basic ingredients for a terrific Founders' Day coordinated by Mary Franzen. Three metropolitan alumnae chapters and three collegiate chapters joined in this mo­menteous day. The more we get together, the quicker we recognize one another. Marty Belnap had a chance to discuss social service and sold the sorority's Christmas cards. Presidents from all chapters brought us up to date on their events. All chapters shared in making this Founders' Day a success. Plans were made to continue the southeast Michi­gan unity at a February dinner-dance.

Detroit metropolitan area extended far into the suburbs when Diane Hardy en­tertained at her home for Christmas. Items from Pine Mountain were sold and used as the evening's prizes. This good cause was well timed for members who took advantage of the opportunity to do last minute Christmas shopping.

Holiday time is the time for notes from sisters away from home. Kathleen Monticello has settled down to her third year in Scotland and an active part with the local theater group. Elsie Leberg Walsh in Miami reports that trees in her yard abound in tropical fruit. She and husband, Mervyn enjoy luncheons in the many wonderful restaurants in the area. Betty Reck Lofstrom would like to retire to the sun of San Jose, California but has some years as elementary school li­brarian before she can spend her days at bridge.

Barbara Davis was hostess in January for a business meeting that continued planning for the dinner-dance at Kings­ley Inn. Highlight of the meeting was the announcement that Barbara Bojakowski, one of the newest alumnae, had been awarded the David D. Henry Leadership Award at the December graduation of Wayne State. This award is presented to the one male and female member of the class who has been outstanding in both scholarship and leadership. Both the col­legiate and alumnae chapters bask in the glory of this honor.

As we welcomed spring last year, we also welcomed three new alumnae into our Detroit III group- Ann Bobryk, Mary Margaret Van Hout, and Diane Van Hout, at our initiation luncheon May 9th at the home of Kathy George.

AST alums and husbands or beaus met for a theatre party and saw "Hair" on August 28th.

Our three new alumnae members joined us in setting up the calendar for this year when we met at the home of Carol Napier in September.

Autumn brought with it football and U. of D.'s Homecoming Game which De­troit III cheered and enjoyed as a group.

November found Detroit III preparing for Founders' Day on the 7th. Carl's Chop House provided some tantalizing aromas, zestful conversation and convivi­ality for Theta, Alpha Theta, Alpha, and Detroit I , Detroit III, and Ypsilanti­Ann Arbor AST sisters. Mr. Hiltee from the Chrysler Corporation was our guest speaker and spoke on the subject of "In­flation and the Economic Situation."

Judy Kendall welcomed us into her home for our December 9th meeting. The Alums sold used paperback and hard-

bound books, the proceeds of which were sent to Pine Mountain. In keeping with our social service theme, Carol Napier, our president, sold Christmas cards for emotionally disturbed children.

The whistling winter winds and snow moved most of us to a brisker step and on towards January 26th - our meeting at Bushnell Congregational Church at which Dr. Hagis spoke on "Environ­mental Control and the Population."

February 20th promises a pleasingly palatable pot-luck when AST sisters and husbands or beaus meet at the home of Don and Mary Beth Anderson.

As Detroit III eagerly awaits spring, 1971, and our initiation luncheon and new alumnae, at least two alumnae­Kathy (Seracino) Lamparelli and Marge (McDonald) Jakubczak will be welcom­ing members from the "bottle and bootie" set.

Founders' Day was celebrated at the chapter house with the collegiates. Fol­lowing the dinner, a group of Hawaiian exchange students entertained the people attending with a variety of songs includ­ing those native to their state.

Attending the annual Christmas party were many alumnae, patrons, patron­esses, and, of course, the collegiates. Our Iota alums presented the house with sconces for the foyer. All were entertained by the pledge songs and their program.

To help the girls through final week, the alums took various food items over to the house. These midnight snacks were appreciated by the girls .

With Valentine's Day drawing near, plans are being made for a special sur­prise for the collegiates. Also in the plans is a flower planting day at the chapter house by the alums.

The Flint alumnae have been extremely busy putting the fun back in fund raising to replace our convention fund. Our Sep­tember project was our annual rummage sale which was a fair success.

In October we tried something new, for our group, and gave a Tupperware party. We all had loads of fun and made money too. In November we celebrated Founders' Day with a potluck. We also held initiation of new members. Our Christmas party was a fun evening with a gift exchange. We were entertained by our sister Jackie Ross who read poems, appropriate to the season, which she wrote herself. They were tremendous.

meeting in the home of Nan Snow. The program for the evening was given by the hostess, Nan, and Sybil Laing, both na­tional staff members who had attended the convention in Toronto. Everyone en­joyed the descriptive and informative account and color slides of the Canadian convention trip.

Fall activities of the Little Rock Alum­nae principally revolved around plans for the annual moneymaking project. This was a card party held at Western Hills Country Club on December 12. Members sold tickets to the event for $1.25 each and all in attendance enjoyed an after­noon of cards and dessert.

The alumnae also provided the oppor­tunity for card party guests to do a little Christmas shopping at a boutique of hand-made items. Club members had held work sessions at which these bou­tique items were designed and crafted by them. A large part of the $100 profit de­rived from this project was donated to Youth Home, the local social service project, and the remainder was retained for club expenses.

~Muncie ... Alum Mums Meet

The Muncie Alumnae Chapter closed 1970 with a beautiful Christmas tea at the home of Mrs. Robert Harshman as­sisted by Mrs. Lamar Wyrich. The Christmas cards sold by the National Social Service Committee were distrib­uted for resale.

Following up this aid for emotionally disturbed children, the first meeting of 1971 was a discussion with Mrs. Pat Schroeder of the Delaware County Child Guidance Clinic. Both the actives and alumnae met in the sorority suite in Wood Hall of Ball State University for this meeting. It was a good opportunity for the actives to meet their "Alum Mums".

In February the Panhellenic card party for the scholarship fund is a must and then we all look forward to the an­nual brunch to honor the graduating seniors.

The New Orleans Alumnae Chapter held its first fall meeting in September at the home of Mrs. Joyce Suter. At this meeting, we discussed social service proj­ects, and waited for the convention re­port from Theresa Rodriguez.

We also initiated five new sisters: Carol DiLeo, Gail Galatas, Cathy Kassa­vetis, Jane Wilthew, and Kathy Calder.

For the October meeting, we had a Stanley party for home products. We as­sembled at Sandy Haslauer's for the in­formal gathering, and we all enjoyed the opportunity to chat.

During November even of the alum returned to Phi chapter at .L.U. in Hammond to help elebrate Found r ·

Cindy Kro­bert, Rita Brooks, Carol DiLeo, Gail Galatas, Camille Gennaro, Theresa Rod­riguez, and AnnMarie Vinturella all made the trip and enjoyed seeing our collegiate sisters. The girls enjoyed the cultural program, and presented the chapter with two new ceremonial robes.

December brought our annual Christ­mas party at Annette LeBlanc's . At the party, we had a raffle for the basket. The money we collected will be used for fu­ture projects.

We are looking forward now to our pizza party in January. (Good-by slim waists!)

We also would like to extend best wishes to a Phi graduate, Cheryl Hender­son who was married during Christmas vacation to Hab Baker.

The Norfolk Alumnae Chapter opened the 1970-71 year at the home of Sandy Wood, president. After an informal lunch­eon and much conversation, we began to make plans for the coming year. It was quite a reunion since our last meeting was our summer picnic at Anna Margaret Rhodes' home at Virginia Beach. We de­cided to continue to mail newsletters to our members as well as telephone re­minders of our meetings.

In lieu of our regular October meeting we visited Seatack Community Center. We are continuing the service project of aiding this community in various ways. We carried articles that might be of use which members had collected over the summer. The response was very good and a spokesman for the center was most appreciative.

The Newport News-Hampton Alumnae Chapter met with us to celebrate Found­ers' Day. The luncheon was held at the

Admiral's Barge Restaurant in Norfolk. The candlelighting ceremony was inspir­ing as once again we renewed our pledge toAST.

December, with all the magic of the season, found our chapter very active. Christmas gifts were taken to Seatack for the day school children. The Norfolk Panhellenic luncheon was held at the newly built Sheraton Inn at Military Circle. The highlight of the season was a Christmas party for the collegiates in our area. Judy Johnson was our gracious hostess. The afternoon flew by amidst chatting with old friends and new. We offered our support to the girls at Rad­ford , Madison, and Longwood Colleges.

Our January meeting will be informa­tive and entertaining. After our business meeting there will be a demonstration on how to wear wigs and hairpieces.

at her farm near Lebanon, we Philadel­phia Alums really appreciate the fact that Mabel Schreiber regularly drives over 150 miles round trip to attend our meetings. The beautiful autumn foilage, catching up on the summer news, and sharing the Toronto Convention and the delicious chicken dinner served up by Chef Mabel all added up to a really great start for our year.

Another beautiful drive took us down to Wilmington in November when we celebrated Founders' Day with the alum there and collegiates from West Chester and Penn Morton. Lambda gals were especially glad to see Irene Wunderlich Hanson, Ruth Rauschenberger Ammlung, and Natalie Densmore again. Wilming­ton's new president, Sara Jane App Tupin, and their chaplain, Ann Chal­mers, are Lambdas too· so it was really quite a reunion! Florence Borgni took

55

us on a delightful "Armchair Tour of England and Italy" to finish off the day in fine style, and the tiny live holly tree favors we carried home with us are sou­venirs of a wonderful afternoon.

Beautifully decorated for the holiday season, Betty Maisch's apartment in Jenkintown was again the scene of our Christmas party. A lovely luncheon and a thoughtful Christmas meditation by Chaplain Virginia Burke combined to give us a good "Christmasy" feeling. Most of us came away with the lovely Gwen Frostic calendars and stationery the sale of which adds easily and pleas­antly to our Convention Fund.

Threatened snow did not appear, and the largest group of this season crowded into Peg Brown's home in Abington where we had a hilarious Chinese Auc­tion. As a very effective auctioneer, Mabel Schreiber presided masterfully over the hectic bidding with the result that a nice sum was added to our grow­ing fund for the 1972 convention.

Listens to Youth

• •

The Princeton Athens Alumnae began the new year under the leadership of Betti Sue Hedrick. Our September meet­ing was held at t he home of Patty Ander­son with a program given by a local high school senior on her trip to the West Virginia American Heritage Camp.

October found our group at Lucille Walthall's where we welcomed a new alumna, Nell Kessinger Jeffreys . This month's program was very informing and entertaining as we listened to convention highlights reported by Marcella Whit­lock.

One of the high spots of our year is the November meeting at which time we join the collegiates to celebrate Founders' Day. This year's celebration wa e pe­cially pleasant as we gathered with ASTs

56

from Athens, Beckley, Bluefield, and Princeton at Pipestem State Park. Once again we were entertained by Marcella Whitlock as she recalled her pledge days. November also saw our chapter involved in our annual rummage sale. The rum­mage sale helped to provide the neces­sary funds to present the collegiates with a payment toward their recently pur­chased building lot.

We celebrated Christmas in our chap­ter with a dinner meeting with our hus­bands and friends a guests. As in pre­vious year , we purchased clothing for a student at a local elementary school.

Despite the sadness our group had seen thi year with the death of Alice Ferrell Moore as well as sickness and death in the families of our group, we look forward to a year filled with happi­ness and peace.

~Roanoke . .. Chapter Re-activated The first meeting of the re-activated

Roanoke Alumnae Chapter was held April 17, 1970. Jennie Teass wa hostess at the meeting, and Mrs . Justin Doyle, president of District III, presided. Ten persons attended the meeting and signed the existing charter. Everyone enjoyed the delightful refreshments and getting acquainted with area sisters. Roanoke Alumnae are very grateful for the time and help Mrs. Doyle gave to us in making our chapter active again. Her vivacious personality added to the enjoyment and success of our first meeting.

The following officer were elected and installed: Mi s Jennie Tea s, pre ident; Mrs. Pat Dunn, secretary; Mr . Pat Brill, trea urer; Mrs. Marva Brown, hi torian; Mrs. Pat Brill, editor; Mr . Martha Crute, panhellenic representative; Mr . Charlotte Garst, recommendations chair­man.

In November the Lamplighter Cafe­teria in the Crossroads Mall Shopping Center was the setting for a Founders' Day Luncheon. A business meeting and the initiation of Miss Billie Dawn Miller into the chapter followed our tasty lunch. Billie was then elected to fill the office of Social Service Chairman.

The December meeting, hosted by Carol Carroll, was a stimulating one. Since our chapter was newly reorganized, a discussion was held on our purpose as an AST alumnae chapter. Deciding to be­come a creative group, plans were made to extend aid to the Roanoke County Nursing Home.

Flight of the Alpha Bees

The busy bees of the St. Louis Alum­nae chapter began their flight with a Board meeting on July 26. Old and new officers planned an exciting calendar under the direction of the Queen Bee, President Arline Clark.

The first stop was the September luncheon, well attended and with even a few new faces. The place was John Henry's, a restaurant flavored with a railroad atmosphere, where a succulent lunch of roast beef was consumed.

The alums took to their wings again and didn't come down till October 23, for a meeting at Lynn Cleveland's. New bees were initiated at this time into the St. Louis Beehive.

Alum and collegiates paused in cele­bration of Founders' Day, November 4 at Pietro's. Under t he able direction of Vice-President Pat I ves, a lovely buffet was enjoyed. The speaker was Mrs. Charles Kortz, who gave a talk on the romance of St. Louis city street names .

ANCHOR

The November stop off was Kathy Kennedy's. With winter fast approach­ing, it is usually a time of inactiveness for bees. But not St. Louis Alum bees for we kept right on buzzing.

Our Christmas Buffet was enjoyed on the evening of Dec. 28, at the home of Mrs. Perry Schippers.

Into '71, soared the alums and kicked off the new year with a January meeting at Sue Gerlt's. Our special guest at this time was Dr. Walter Kopp, director of St. Louis Public Schools program for emotionally disturbed children. We pre­sented him with a check for $100, to aid in furthering this program.

Many St. Louis bees were busy buzz­ing around gathering more knowledge, as four alums attained the Masters status -JoAnn Litto, Betty Canning, Barbara Lentz and Sue Gerlt. One bee left the hive to be married- Bonnie Onder Keune, while another became engaged­Cheryl Yuchs McConnell. Two alums gave birth to little bees- Lucy Binder Sugg and Darlys Moore Preslar. We wish the best to three of our bees who have buzzed far away from the hive- Sondra Dexter and Jeanine Delgman in Alaska and Sharon Gehbauer in the Phillippines. And that ends the flight of the Alpha bees. Buzz - - - - - - - -

Sorority Singalong Our annual September picnic is always

an enjoyable occasion for us. We are always anxious to greet our old alumnae friends and to meet new ones. We just spend most of our time enjoying the de­licious covered dishes provided by our members and discussing happening of the summer months. Those of u who

were unable to attend convention were, of course, eager to hear about that. Those girls attending were very thought­ful and took slides of their trip to show to us at this meeting.

A recently acquired and very talented alumnae Vickie Shockey, was our hostess in October. She presented a lovely pro­gram of organ music for us.

McFarlands in Martinsburg was the site for our annual Founders' Day Ban­quet. This is always a joint celebration with our Chi sisters from Shepherd Col­lege. Miss Ruth Seibert conducted the impressive candlelighting ceremony.

The talents of fifth grade students at­tending Rosemont Elementary School in Martinsburg provided the Christmas pro­gram for us in December. Mrs. Gladys Jones, our president, a teacher at the school was in charge of the program and also served as our hostess.

Miss Barbara Maxwell was our hostess in January, and since she is employed in the Shepherd College Library and very much interested in library service; was kind enough to arrange a tour for us at our recently completed Martins­burg-Berkeley County Public Library. Mrs. Anna Shewbridge and Miss Cheryl Flagg provided us with a great deal of information concerning the services of the library.

~ Tri-City . . . Shouts Vunderbar!

While school bells were ringing, Tri­City alumnae (mostly of the "retired" state as teachers and the busy state as moms) waved goodbye to the lazy days of summer and began packing lunches, pressing plaid dresses and baking cooki~s for P.T.A. Yes, fall activities once agam became the order of the day.

Taking advantage of some of those "free" school day hours, we began the year with a luncheon at the Bavarian Inn in Frankenmuth, Michigan. Vunder­bar! This was followed by a tour of Bron­ner's Christmas Display. "Christmas in July", October, or whenever, it was ?e­lightful and we were inspired into .domg a little early planning for the holidays. Only 60 shopping days 'til Christmas! .

Keeping this in mind, we gathered m November at Roni Bailey's home for a pine cone wreath demonstration and work session. In preparation, we had to out-fox the squirrels at pine cone col­lecting. Our efforts were rewarded! Under the careful scrutiny and artistic guidance of Rosalie McFall, we managed to pro­duce some very unique pine cone wreaths to happily display and enjoy.

Making the holidays complete was our annual Children's Party and Cookie Ex­change, this year held at the home of Jackie Willman. Ten moms and 18 chil­dren were on hand for pre ents, play and plenty of cookies. We were happy to add Christopher Carl Roeser, son of Carl and Carolyn (Riefe) Roeser, and John Michael Hamilton, son of Mike and Eileen (Goetz) Hamilton to the invita­tion list this year.

The ew Year bells will ring in a new spring program and continued work with our " new baby" - our local ocial service project. Ticket to the Saginaw m­phony Young People's Concert a \ ell as our taxi and escort provided for member Fun lub.

Participation Our new year started off with a pot

luck dinner at the home of Mary Louise Doyle. The food was delicious and a pleasant time was had by all. Meda Ray Sewell and Charlotte Douglas reported on the happenings at National Conven­tion.

Cathy Schreiner hosted our October meeting. Margaret Bowers was auction­eer for our White Elephant Sale which turned out to be very successful as our money making project for the month. We were sorry to learn that Sharon Purvi­ance will be moving to San Diego, Cali­fornia .

Our Founders' Day meeting in No­vember was most enjoyable at the home of Luci Baldi in Maryland. Everyone brought a dish for our pot luck dinner which was followed by an impressive candlelighting ceremony. Two alumnae in the Maryland area, Polly McGee and Sharon Hylton were guests at this meet­ing. It saddened us to learn that another sister Joan McWhorter, will be depart­ing u~ for Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.

The group assembled for our annual Christmas Party at the home of Char­lotte Douglas. We had fun exchanging gifts by the give and take method. For our national social service project this month we collected toys, both old and new, clothing, and money with which to buy new toys, and donated them to the Northern Virginia Mental Health As­sociation. The toys were distributed to emotionally disturbed children in the Washington Metropolitan area. There was an all out effort on the part of everyone with 100% participation. F~ith McClung was installed as our new vice­president.

In the new year we are looking for­ward to having some girls from the col­legiate chapter of Madiso~ Colle?~ who are student teaching in th1s area ]Om us.

"Happiness is" Doing for Others

Summer was far too short. Yours truly spent most of it at the lake acquiring the most beautiful tan of her life.

A smashing card party opened the year of Ypsi-Ann Arbor at the new and very beautiful home of Martha Belnap in Ann Arbor. A good crowd showed up and we made lots of the "green stuff" for our national social service project. Everyone was most pleased with the prizes they had won.

The home of Faye Mitchell was the scene for our national convention report of which I was a part. My first conven­tion, what a thrill , and Toronto a beau­tiful and exciting city. Slides were shown of the convention activities and Toronto by Joyce Berg who also went.

Saturday, October lOth found us at the Washtenaw County Care Facility for the Aged . There we conducted the after­noon Bingo party, helped with refresh­ments and the prizes which our Chapter had provided. This was one of the most
