University of Colorado - Coloradan Yearbook (Boulder, CO)

^ > ^lpna ^au L > ^ T meaa ^ The school year, 1950-1951, represents an important milestone in the history of Gamma Lambda. On May 4, 1901, Alpha Tau Omega was installed on the CU campus, and now, having completed its fiftieth year, the fraternity feels that half a century could hardly have proven more successful. Those forty-nine years brought much success to the Taus, and this year the chapter has missed no chances in making the record of the Golden Anniversary a fitting success. Homecoming and CU days were actively participated in by A.T.O. ' s; the chapter placed in the finals in the Homecoming float competition, and also in the traditional chariot race. Socially Gamma Lambda never lost a minute. Besides the many social functions, the annual Black and White formal was held in the fall for the pledge class, to the theme of " Winter Wonderland. " The Spring Formal was held at the Cherry Hills Country Club. A good time was had by all. In May the all important 50th anniversary celebration was held, and pronounced a huge success. In University athletics the Taus were represented by Bud Davis, Zack Jordan, Hal Dunning, Ralph Curtis, and Hugh Davidson on the football squad. Paul Neville was on the University wrestling team. Byron Akers was a varsity golfer, and John Endicott a varsity swimmer. Colin Couper lent his support to the track team. Alpha Tau Omega showed up well in university activities. Bud Davis was ASUC President. Duncan Orr was president of Phi Mu Epsilon, engineering honorary. Ted Shestak was sales manager of the Coloradan. Phi Epsilon Phi was headed by President Randy Russell, and the organization claimed eleven other Taus. John Mitcheltree directed the All Mens Glee Club. Dale Morgan was chairman of Homecoming and the CU Days committee besides serving on the ASUC finance commission. Tom Ruegg ably served as a CU Cheerleader. The chapter would like to extend a word of thanks to its won- derful housemother, Mom Applegate for her important contributions towards making this 50th year a really successful one. ACTIVES Aikin.
