;\;. "EAGER to promote more organized social life on the campus of Radford College, a

group of interested students presented to the committee on clubs and organizations of the college, an application and a plan of organization for the development of a local sorority on the campus. The application, which was presented to the college faculty by the committee, was approved. On the thirteenth of October, 1939, a local sorority to be known as Lambda Sigma Pi Sorority was organized on the campus of R adford College at R adford, Virginia ."

The above is a quotation from the pre­amble of the constitution of Lambda Sigma Pi Sorority, which has recently become Alpha Lambda Chapter of Alpha Sigma T au.

The purposes of the sorority were to pro­mote college sp irit and loyalty among stu-

dents. to encourage and promote social and educational activities on the campus, a nd to develop in the students those qualiti s for which the sorority stood.

Lambda Sigma Pi was the second sorority organized on the R adford campus and has always had an active part in the Panhellenic Council. Yell ow and green were the local sorority colors, and the yellow tea rose was the flower. Miss Blanche Daniel became sponsor a t the time of organization ·and has been fondly called "M ommie" since by a ll Lambdas. There were 13 charter member .

The 1952-53 officers of Lambda wer elected las t spring. They are: Anne Byerle, President ; Joan Rivera, Vice President ; Nancy Ellis, Recording Secretary; M yrtl T olbert, Corresponding Secretary; Sue Plun­ket t, Alumnae Secretary; M argaret Armen­trout, T reasurer ; Barbara Weeks, H istorian ·

Lambda has certain traditional activitie each year. Founders' Day was celebrated during the week of October 13. The sorority entertained facul ty and members of other sororities at an annual Founders' Day T ea, a ttended church as a group on Sunday, and planned activities for each remaining day of the week. There was the annual Christmas party a t "Mannie's," when we all sat around the open fire and ~ang carols and ate good food. At Christmas and Eas ter, festive bas­kets were prepared for needy families. With the M arch of Dimes Cam paign each January the Lambdas appeared everywhere in their green a nd yellow, 3oliciting money in the dor­mitories, local thea ters and from the faculty and administration.

Our rush pa rties have always been occa­sions for planning and working together. They brought with the fun , a feelinrr of close­ness among all Lambdas. After ' formal pledging, there were informal get-togethers, helping both pledge and members to know each other better.

In February came one of the big activities of the year, our Sweetheart Ball, honoring

new members. Alumnae came back for this, and parents and other gu ests added interest and fun to the Ball. It was truly a big night for everyone a ttending! Parties given by new members for their big sister have included uch activities as wiener roasts, breakfast

hay rides, and theater partie . The e were always gay time with all the energy and originali ty of new members on display.

In the pring the Lambda rejoiced when the weekend for Cabin Party rolled around. Leaving all our worries far behind, Lambdas, both active and alumnae, took necessary provi ions-food, bluejeans, cards, ukulele portable radio , and blankets and h eaded to­ward a cabin on Little River for a week end of swimming, eating, card playing, dancing, sun bathing, hiking-or what have you-but no sleeping !! We have had lots of guest traveling out our gay ignmarked trail for Sunday dinner. The marvelous week end a lways ended with all Lambdas aying, " I can't wait until nex t pring for Cabin Party."

Mo t of the e activitie , which have been enjoyed for the past 14 year, will continue to be enjoyed by the Alpha L ambda Chapter of Alpha Sigma T au.

A meeting for the officers of our chapter

was held in the afternoon. At this time Miss Calfee, Miss Macdonald, and M rs. Steen m t with officers and helped th m to become a -quainted with their new duties a nd explain d many things about the constitution and rit­uals of Alpha Sigma Tau .

<t WE don' t need t tell you about the high cost of living! It' s an old phrase by now,

grown trite and hackneyed. Even so, it is a real and present spectre and because of it we want to lay before you our dilemma.

Because money is always scarce, we have for years done only the most necessary re­pairs to our buildings. But wood deteriorate rapidly in this damp climate, and we are faced with the need for extensive work .. . replacing rotting joists and leaking gutters, painting bui·ldings everywhere. These urgent task kept a crew of our neighbors busy all summer and the end is not in sight.

Most of our 215 chi ldren have classes in the Mary Burkharn Schoolhouse which is now more than 30 yea rs old and built en­tirely of wood . With this enlarged enroll­ment, we mu t install fire escapes and other

safety devices to prote t these youngsters in an emergency.

We have one important item of progress to share with you. This fall we have added a ninth grade to our eight-grade school. Thi is one more step toward our goal of a twelve-grade school for the children of our valley. Four years ago we changed from a boarding school to a con olidated elementary school in order to provide a good foundation for children who 5uffered from th poor teaching in some one-room schools. ow we want to build on that foundation. In ord r not to delay any longer, Pine M ountain ha agreed to pay half the sa lary of the ninth grade teacher who also serve as principal.

DoROTHY lARTIN BRODHEAD,

Lansing Alumna, Converts H obby Into a Busines.s

;.t THREE-YEAR-OLD GIRLS busy making mud pies shouldn't be discouraged. They may grow up to have profitable ceramic hobbies. Mrs. I. J. Brodhead did.

Dorothy sta rted her ceramic work in the basement of her home about two years ago and- six months ago moved into her lovely new studio and workshop, built in connec­tion with her new ranch type home, about three miles east of East Lansing, on U . S. 16. The studio has a M exican motif, and the official opening will be held in March.

"Ceramics is good for people who are hy

about creative work," she said. " It g1ves them a chance to try their hand at small things. And there are many places such as the adult education courses at Lansing High Schools and Michigan State College, where people can learn the art of ceramics."

"And it' a hobby with no limitations," she sa id . "A ceramic workshop can be set up on a ca rd table in the corner of any room or in a spacious tudio. All the hobbyist needs is originality, a hunk o'clay, orne glaze, a few tools and plenty of patience. Manufacturers have developed upplics now that are inex­

pensive and de­pendable."

Dorothy's very profitable busi­ne s has grown out of her love for creative art and what started a a hobby has become a full­time work. H er spaciou tudio now contain kiln s, pott e ry wheel , mold glaze and green­ware.

;t,. WASHINGTON, D. C.-"Daddy, is there a God?" The little 8-year-old boy, his eyes sparkling, waited intently. An older playmate had mentioned God. Surely, D addy would know the answer.

The father, a trained Communist, he i­tated, a look of surprise on hi face.

"No, on. There is no God." "But Daddy," the young boy protes ted.

"H enry aid there was. H e said God created the world, and is our best friend."

" onsen e," the father snapped. "God is capitalist propaganda. H e doe n't exi t. Forget such notions."

These are the teachings of a Communist parent. These wo:·ds ymbolize the dread danger of communism to American youth .

A " Germ Carrier" at Work

Communi ts know tha t the youth of to­day will be the leader of tomorrow. They are till training their own children-many hundred of America' boys and girls-to be fana tical Communists.

Communists often "grow in families" : fath er, mother, children, even in-laws. The party is proud of its " Communist genealogy." It may boast one cl ay of " three generations of Socialist fighters,' ' next day it may pay tribute to a "worthy mother" who ha rai ed h r sons and daughter to be Communi ts.

This Communist capture of their own hildren ( though orne do escape) illu tra tes

the depths of their degrada tion as parents. But the party, in th o:: proce s, gain a corp of young, fanatical , highly di ciplined devo tees. Wher ver they go- in school, youth groups, ommunity organizations, even the Armed

For - the e boy and girl ar in fac t "germ carri rs."

And they accomplish great deed for the party.

Let's picture a college cia . u 1e the daughter of an ac tive Communi t, is a stu­dent. Lik able and intelligent, he m ake fri end . Politic i discussed. Su ie expre es the Communi t viewpoint- the only view­point he know . Several of her friend are attracted. Susie invites them to a tudy meeting at the home of a fri end . The meet­ing i a Communi t youth bra nch. Step by step they become indoctrinated- until a year la ter everal of Sus:e' friend join.

Virtually all of today' leader in the Com­munist Party, United State of America, ta rted Communist work in their youth .

Not long ago the FBI m ade an interesti ng stud y of the ea rly life of certa in leading Communist functionaries. Thi revealed that the average age a t which these men and women officially join the Communi t Party (or it youth branch ) wa 22 .2 year. ge ranged a ll the way from 14, 16, and 18 to 15.

These Are R ed M ethods

Just how i the Communist Party trying to a ttrac t non-Commu nist youth- meaning your children?

1. Through the Labor Youth League- the principal medium through which th Com­munist Party conducts it youth ac tivitie . This i the ucce, :or to the Young om­muni t Leaau and the American Youth for n emocracy.

This organization is a feeder f r th om-munist Pa rty, n1ted Sta te of m erie •. M an oung people, ver un, \Lpe tingly, rna be brought under the L YL's inAuen l' .

Parties, dances, and ocials are often used as bait.

2. Through Communist-front organiza­tions- fronts u ually masquerading under high-sounding titles.

3. By infiltrating legitimate organizations -the youth groups, school organizations and the like in your community. A Communist member was employed in a Midwestern day nursery. She worked hard. She wanted to he a superviso r so < h ~ could hire other Com­munists.

Youth Is lmjJrisoned

American must realize the continuing danger of the Communist challenge to youth . A young person, once recruited by the Com­muni t , become a prisoner.

Intelligence is not a preventive. Many Communist recruits are highly intelligent. Dr. Klaus Fuchs was a brilliant young scholar. No, something more is needed : strength of morfl character.

In one American city, not too long ago, a 9-year-old boy was speaking to his father, a Communist official.

"Daddy," he said, " it's funny, but Stalin and Lenin are the only two Russian presi­dents I ever heard of."

A little irrita ted, the fa ther said, "They each had long terms."

" What pa rty are they in, Daddy?" "The Communist Pa rty, of course," sa id

the father, becoming more annoyed. ·'H ow of ten are elections held ?" The fa ther coughed nervously. "As often

as mentioned in the constitution." "And, D addy ·» * *" the boy started to

a k. The father had enough. "Go on to bed . That' enough tonight," he sa id.

Antidote: An Open Mind

" That's enough" - tha t' s the a ttitude of the Communists when ques tions are a ked .

They don't want qu stions- alert, intellig nt, straight-from-th -shoulder qu stions.

The par nts of Am ri a hav a special re­sponsibility to guard th ir children- with ympathetic upervision. If American par­

ents spent just a fraction of th tim and effort on their children that Communists spend to beguile them, I would have no fear.

What 'Can United States Youth Do?

Know the hi . tory of your Nation, its ori­gin , struggle for liberty, the li ve of its great leaders. A young man and woman, weJI versed in American h1story and cultu r , wiJI have a full under tanding of the true m an­ing of liberty, justice, and equality.

Be affirmative in your convictions. We don't need to be apologetic about Am rica . We have weaknesses. Certa inly. But we are working to correct them. America has a story to tell the nations. othing can be gained by a negative, defeati t approach:

Be vigilant and clear-minded. Don't be rushed off your feet. Don't call a man a Communist until yo u have the fact . The orderl y processe of democracy can handle the Communist threa t. Your re pon ibility is to cooperate with the law. A man i in­nocent until proved guilty. Each per on, under the law, mu -t be given hi full rights a nd privileges.

Beware of Communi t propaganda. Watch uch phrase as " thought ontro l on the

campu ," "academic freedom a rifi ced to war prepara tions," "the degeneracy of bour­geois culture." Be a len to phon peace p -titions-thi is one of the Communi t' favorite devices.

Put your ultimate tru t in God. trong moral character i the chief need of 19-2. The young person who dedicate hi life to piritual principle will alwa be on the

true path-a path which the ommuni ts ca n never cro s.

The American Association of University Women, in which many Greek Letter women are active, mentioned the dilemma involved in taking a stand in their Journal of J anuary 1953 as follows:

"For the mo t part we and like minded groups have been put on the defensive. If we attacked Communism and the Commu­nists we found ourselves in the camp with the se lf seeking or fascist-minded individuals. .. . If we defended our liberties as free peo­ple we ra n the risk of being cal led Commu­nist sympathizers, fellow travelers, and even Communist ! So we have sa t back more or less paralyzed and have allowed other people to take the initia ti ve and to create a dilemma for the hones t a nd loyal liberal."

But now in this same Journal of 1953 the AAUW, as did the National Panhellenic Conference in 1931 , ca ll s for an attack against Communists through a wholehearted comm itment to all that Democracy tand for, and appeal to it members to give eri­ous at tention to the problems involved. a­tiona! Panhellenic Conference took a imilar tand on M a rch 29, 195 1, when Deleaa te on

behalf of their organizations adopted the following R e olution propo ed to them b the

PC Committee on R esearch and Public R elation :

"Th a tional Panhellenic Conference shall b come a memb r group of the II America n onferrnce to Combat Commu-

18

ni m a a demonstra tion by the College Greek Letter Societie for women of their opposition to the phi losophy and technique of Communism and as evidence of their devotion to American Freedom."

T wo well known College Administrator among many have expre sed divergent view which appear to be indica tive of the line of thinking on which people are dividing as far a the propo ed investigation of Com­muni m in Education is concerned.

M ark Foote of the News Wa hington Bu­reau in an article in the Ann Arbor News of J a nuary 27, 1953, di cussed the sta tement of Dr. H arlan H . H atcher, Pre ident of the Univer ity of Michigan, and Dr. Jame B. Conant, retlfJD <T Pre iden t of H arvard University.

Mr. Foote aid, "Dr. H a tcher emphasize the danger of subversive in educa tional m­stitution while Dr. Conant put the tre on the danger of thought control."

Thi seems to be the dividing is ue among many, although some people still declare the Communi ts are few if any, and are little menace in any area of American life. The example of the la bor union , military service and government departments, in which Con­gre sional inve tigations have indicated a housecleaning wa needed, does not seem to impre the doubting Thoma e with the po ibil itie el ewhere.

Mr. Foote aid Dr. Hatcher ent the Com­mittee on nAmerican Activitie of the U.

Conant declared, " It would be a sad day for the Country if the tradition of dissent were driven out of our Universiti es . And if there were Communist at Harvard (which ,he denied ) the damage that would be done to the pirit of thi academic ommunity by an inves tigation aimed at finding crypto­Communi t would be far greater than any conceivable harm such a person could do."

Again quoting Dr. H atcher, Mr. Foote clo es his interesting comparison of the two points of view by this statement: "The Uni­versity o Michigan ha a tradition of liber­alism but it exercises all the vigilance con­sistent with American practices, against the possibility of ubversive activities, while pre­serving the traditional freedom of scholarly investigation upon which our National prog­res is based."

t A FEW YEARS ago I decided to have what appeared to be a thin streak of writing ability evaluated. My idea wa to review freshma n composition a t the downtown school of The American Univer ity in Washington, D . C. The head of the course of instruction desia-

" nated "Communication" had a different idea. however ; and I landed in an adva nced writ~ ing course. At the end of the term of hard ~ork I easily might have stopped, but my mstructor was kind enough to encourage me to ontinue. So I did go on with tha t course and several others. An exciting one has ju t been _compl_etcd in " Publicity Writing," with ~he c1ty editor of one of Wa hington's lead­mg newspaper a instructor.

Through an intere t in the enactment of legisla tion affecting the youthful delinquent, I wrote a n a rticle entitled , "A Straight Path Through The For~'> t . " Thi a ppear d in th M a r h I 52 issu of American FaTe Is. The

The article also wa consid red for u e in the Oversea Informa tion Program of the D epartment of Sta te, since American Forests i one of 130 magazines ub ribed to by that Program . Although the re carch work was completed on the a rticle, it ·Na not u ed, due to cur­ta ilm nt of operation a t tha t pa rticula r time.

A second a rticle )n the F ederal prison sys­tem, entitled 'Freedom Through Lumber­ing" a ppeared in the D ecember 15, 1952 pe­cia l Chri tma i ue of S outhern Lumberman. Arrangements for my field trip to the site of the adult prison camp near White Sulphur Springs, West Virginia, were made for m e by the Bureau of Pri on .

... she i kind- the gentle, understanding kindness which bring out the be t in others and gives them a feeling of ecurity. People working together in a group where this kind­ness is mutually under-rood a nd felt ca n ac­complished miracl~s . Each individua l will find tha t he can do many, many thing which before she had never dreamed were possible for her to do, and all because her A.S.T. sisters believe in her and need her contributions to make their group a better orga nization .

A bright smile, a cheery, "H ello" and a little chit-cha t a re not a lway ea y to deliver when one i feeling a little low, but a reputa tion of being the friendliest girl in town is one which no A.S.T. wants .to spoil. So she greets every­one he know . Not just her sisters but the members of other sororitie and non-sorority members alike.

... she is energetic. Energetic in her work and a t her play in the proper proportion. She does her very be t in every job which

she selects of her own a ·cord and in cv ry elec ted job for the prestige of th sorority as we ll as for her own sa ti fa tioil . H er play is hea lthful and clean and she njoys it to the utmo t.

She appre ia tes a ll of the beautiful things which God continu all y favor u with­glowing sunse ts, blossoming flowers, moun­tains, rivers, and tream with their ver­changing color and surfaces. When ver an A.S.T. feels like ha ting, she ha only to re­member the many wonderful thing he has to love and , somehow, the ha ting becomes petty, small and not worth the effort.

An A.S.T. ga l st rive for all of th c qual­iLie because she has a big goal in life. Thi goal i threefold. First, of cour e, he ha to prove her worthine sand abi lity to herself and then to the sorority. H er big goal, how­ever, is to prove herself worthy of the A. .T. shield which he wear over her heart. Thi sh ield may be little in ize but it i great in meaning, accomplishment and ideal . To live up to the things which this pin tand for is a high goa l but a worthy one; one worthy of spending a lifetime to atta in.

;\; REcENTLY a modern railway streamliner went berserk and tore into the concourse

of the Union Station in Wa hington, D. C . An hour later and a mile away, in the same city, fire and explosion wrecked a large busi­ness establishment. The two accidents rap­idly overwhelmed already heavily taxed hos­pital facilities. Victims of both catastrophes needed blood and needed it in a hurry. Im­mediately after news of the two disasters hit, the radio and press blood donors streamed by the dozens into the local blood collection center. ... Our people will always respond promptly when they see a need.

But why . .. why must we depend upon catastrophic accidents to point up the need? Will we wait till we hear the drone of enemy planes to collect the blood needed for a city razed by atomic explosion?

Adequate supplies of blood and blood plasma have cut the death rate of our Ko­rean wounded to half that of the wounded in World War II. Children by the thousands have been spared lifetime handicap resulting from measles because they were given injec­tions of immune serum globulin produced from surplus wartime blood plasma . There is high hope that this same blood serum may

24

spare many children the crippling effects of polio. In this blood factor, we find a weapon to control infectious jaundice. And the story of the miracle of blood therapy could be ex­panded on and on.

Entirely a ide from the daily dramatic de­mands for blood that hit headlines and news broadcast , there are other significant facts which every able-bodied American should remember. Every minute eighteen of our citizens are injured in accidents. Many of them need blood and need it promptly. There is no time to wa te hunting down donors.

Blood has become a rna jor weapon in our arsenal of death fighters. It i a weapon which cannot be fabricated, cannot be mined, cannot be made from synthetic ma­terials. It must come from healthy people of good will.

The donor today may be the recipient to­morrow. Each of us mu t adopt the habit of giving blood a one of the obligations of good citizenship. Only by facing up to thi obligation can we procure the hundreds of thousands of pints of blood essential to our na tional welfare ... essential in p·eace, in war or in drfense preparedness.

Our annual Christmas Benefit Dance was very much a success. It was held December 6 at St. John's Parish House. Each couple had to bring some type of food to help fill the basket for a needy family in Mt. Pleasant. For favors the girls made little red stockings and filled them with Christmas candy. The day of the party the girls got together and made cookies for refreshments.

Spring Rushing began early and ended with a bang this year. We had three rush parties during the rushing period. The first was our formal rush tea which we centered around the circus theme, and decorated in the T au colors, emerald and gold. For our second party we used our annual theme Sleepy Tau Haven. All the rushees wor~ P.J.'s; the actives wore nightgowns. J eannie Clark brought her new baby "Christy" to the party. Christy was as much at home a any one and enjoyed a fun-fill ed evening with us. Our final rush party, held in the col­lege den, was "The T au Sweet Shoppe." We served popcorn, lemonade, and candy after the games and "getting better ac­quainted" ses ion. The bid were ent in and we received into Beta Chapter, nine wonder­ful girl . They will be initiated into A.S.T. on April 19. After ribbon pledging, we took our new girls over to get acquainted with members of our brother fraternity. They were having a party for their new pledges.

Our rushing ended with a formal rush party held Wednesday, February 18. The decora tions were yellow roses with glit­ter and green leaves rambling on the gates . Behind this in the distance could be seen the half moon with soft flood lights on it. The theme, Moonlight and Roses, was further carried out by an orche tra playing soft, mellow music. The evening ended af ter a candlelight rendition of "Deep Down in our H earts" by the Taus. Our ru h party must have been enjoyed by the rushees as we got sixteen pledges.

Also our voices are being tuned for the Panhellenic Sing, and our dancing sho s are being put into shape for the nearing Pan­hellenic Ball in April.

have gone down to help the chapter and now we feel that the collegiate chapters should help. We want to get to know those other sisters and is there any other way to get to know them than to meet with them and help them? Perhaps some of the other collegiate chapters could make plans to go to Blacks­burg.

Nancy Canterbury, Omicron, Jan. '53 is employed as an as istant in the Concord Col­lege Library. Nancy, for the past emester, was recording secretary. She is from Kim­berely, West Virginia. Phyllis Lyons, Omi­cron, Jan. '53, is teaching English at Rupert High School, Rupert, West Virginia. Phyllis is from Princeton and was our prep mother.

A new fraternity ha been established on the campus of Concord College-Alpha Beta Alpha (Library Science) . Omicron has four charter members in the organization ; Nancy Canterbury, Rita Dial, Patsy Fields . and Juanita Grant. Of these four, Nancy has graduated and the other three hold major offices in Alpha Beta Alpha. Juanita Grant '53, Bluefield, is the newly elected president ; Patsy Fields '53, King ton, is recording and ~orresponding secretary; Rita Dial '53, Ep­perley, is the treasurer.

Omicron chapter has new jackets. We are a standout on the campus with our emerald jackets with gold braid. The jackets are tail­ored and we certainly are proud of them. We received them shortlv after Christmas and our shields are now on . the jackets. Perhaps all chapters could get a standardized jacket so we will recognize our si ters no matter where we meet them. If any chapter would be in­terested in getting deta il of our jacket , write to us.

" Toyland" was the theme of our ru h party. The rushees were greeted at the door by the ringmaster Shirl.ey Parkey. First they were given bow for their hair as all dolls have, plu lollipop and a doll' name for themselve . First top, at the home of " Pretty Baby," Bonnie Aliff who ang while the next visit wa to see Alire of "Alice Blue Gown," who wa Bonnie. Next in toyland, Ellen M aples nterta ined the pre-pledge with a dance.

Today television 1s the big word and AST-TV came on the screen ju t for the night. Dean Martin and J erry Lewis were gue t star in the form of Anna Mason and Jane Wells. Next, murder is the word and "Murder in the Toyshop" has been recom­mended for a critic>' award. Juanita Grant wa the well-known detective who, with her magnifying gla , olves the crime. Raggedy Ann, played by Gertrude Swimm, is the corp e. Beautiful doll, Ruth Christie and Joyce Anderson as the dolls who are in love with J ack-in-the-Box, Nancy Pettrey. Pat y Field is the uspect. If any chapter care to use this idea ever for a ru h party they can write their own ending.

What toyland would be complete without a circu ? Our circu actors had been in winter camp but came to our circu to try some new act . Our trained dog act wa wonderful. Ringm P. ter Shirley Parkey and dog, Mary Elizabeth Clark, entertained and the rushees demanded an encore. Tight-wire daredevil Ellen M aple went into her act 50,000 fee t above th e ground with no n et. ·We are happy to report that Ellen got back to ea rth without mi hap.

The climax came when we crowned "Mis Doll," Leah Jean Ord. She wa given a bou­quet of flowers and a tuffed animal to re­m ember u by. Then the other girls were given favors- dolls and a yellow rose.

We were indeed sorry to learn of the death of the father of Elizabeth Belchce Pen­dleton in February. New York City enter­tained Alice LeFeare at Christmas, while Peggy Wallace went to the great metropolis in January with her husband on church busi­ness. Peggy did have some time for sight­seeing. Jean Bailey is now in Florida.

At our February meeting at Jeannette's was Doris Will's sister, Ruth Johnson Hed­rick, who is now living in Beckley.

The chapter packed a box for Pine Moun­tain at Christmas time. We also presented a picture and two table lamps for the House at Huntington. Our annual bake sale is slated for March 13, a t the Diamond depart­ment store.

Spring brings Alpha Betas to our April luncheon at the Wren's Nest. That is the highlight in our sorority year.- PEGGY WAL­LACE.

;\; A LOCAL CONVALESCENT HOME for aged people has provided a ocial project

throughout the year. At the home of our president, Crystal H earn, films were hown by the director of such work in Flint.

Before Christm:lS, the group met for des­sert at the home of Lucille M a Whinney, wrapped tiny plants, and delivered them to these elderly folk.

A benefit book review was a ttended by about fifty, proceed going for similar work . Sponsoring the review were Shirley Green, Pauline Wood, Shirley Gauthier, Diane Hatlestad, and Gloria Wedge.

Digressing from this project, in November, members played court whist a t Louise Le­roy's, and in J anuary, they had an oppor­tunity to see Luella Clapp's movie of Yel­lowstone National Park.

;\; WE were installed as an Alumnae Chap ter in the Spring of 1952. In the fall of 1952

at Homecoming time, our alumnae group gave a Homecoming breakfast for the re­turning alums. In past years, the active chapter had given this breakfast, so we de­cided to relieve them fo r work on their floa t by giving the breakfast ourselves. Each member of our alumnae cha pter furnished a breakfast bread or roll. We had coffee, and a good time was had by about fifty girls. At Christmas time, our Alumnae Chapter made scrapbooks and gave new story books to the children in the loca l hospital a t that time. Our pring meetings arc being devoted to making gold crown to be used by the active chapter in their ceremonies. We are planning to make a new alta r cloth for their u e also.-MRs . G. R. D ENISON.

Or~enla/ Wa~ ""' OcTOBER's bright blue weather cooper-

ated perfectly with Ball Sta te's homecom­ing this year, and Lhe sunny skies and full moon added to the gala mood of collegiates and returning alumnae alike. The occasion was especially memorable because of the grand official opening of the L . A. Pittenger Student Center. T wo years ago the first spadeful of dirt was turned at the site of the building; last year old grads found the Cen­ter well under construction and a "coffee hour" was held in the basement of the build­ing; this year came the culmina tion of dreams and ·planning as the doors were opened for the first time to the homecoming crowd .... The Alpha T aus had their usual "in-between-er" buffet supper where colle­giates and alums spent a social hour renewing old friendships and meeting new sorority sisters.

In November carne the traditional Found­ers' D ay banquet served in the ballroom of the Student Center. Swishy skirts, good food, relaxed singing, all contributed in mak­ing the occasion a highlight of the sorority year. Our special speaker was Miss M ary Beeman, H ead Emeri tus of the D epartment and Professor Emeritu of H ome Economics at Ball Sta te. Miss Beeman spent last year teaching at Silliman U niversity in the Philip­pines, followed by a round-the-world tour. At our banquet she was dressed in a native Philippine costume and she took us wi th her "Along the Oriental W ay" in an intriguing and informative talk.

Christmas-at the home of Nell Young - brought us together in a mellow mood ; and the Christmas story given to us by our ho tess-the inging of carols-the reading of "The Christmas Apple" wi th its pathos building up to the final triumph of the little clockmaker- added to the warmth of our f cllowship.

I n the month especially remembered be­cau of the ra il splitter and h is ax Cupid

and his arrow, and the ha tchet-cherry tree episode, the Muncie Alumnae met at the home of Mrs. Forrest M ayer, one of our pa­tronesses. A special fea ture of this meeting was the inspira tional talk on " Pocket Pieces'' given by Dr. Leo Hauptman, R egistrar of Ball State.-ETHEL HIMELICK.

;\; O cTOBER i the month for the joint meet-ing of the Bluefield Alumnae and our

grou p. This meeting was held in the Ap­palachian Social R oom in Princeton. One of our favorite men, Dr. Meade Me eill, was the gues t speaker. I'm sure most everyone is acquainted with the D octor and his charming wife, Bula. D r. McNeill gave a very interesting talk on rare plant that ·he had found in his extensive travels. Beautiful colored slides were used to make a very in­teresting as well a informative talk.

The ovember meeting was trictl a bu i­nes meeting. Plan ,.Vere made for our Christma project. This year we decided to take food to a need family. Thi meeting was held at the home of Margaret H uffman.

Our husbands and beaus were guests at our J anuary party at Lucille Walthall 's. We had a very enjoyable evening of canas ta playing. The men found out that we women can be pretty shrewd at card playing, too !

February meeting was held at the home of Margaret Weatherford. At this meeting, the girls who went to the installation of the new collegiate chapter at Radford, Virginia, gave a very enthusiastic report.
