I9 members returned and 43 men were pledged during the year though a great number of them were called into the service .... Socially we managed to hold our own in spite of war . . . breakfast dances on Homecoming, Military Ball, and Fall Frolics-a dance in honor of LSS and our annual party and diamond ball game with SPE ,... Knowles gets rich and adopts a great dane that eats us out of house .... Mahoney makes Blue Key and Richards a big fuss as drum major ,... Read, Popham and Griffen take the fatal step, the latter making a good prexy in spite of his trips to Jacksonville every week- end .... Grades Potter becomes a glamour boy to the admiration of the Jackson- ville Freshmen .... Weaver trades gavel for gun, leaving big space to fill .... Wood Imgrl, Sutherland, and Miller finally get football F's and wear sweaters all summer .,,, Farrington, Barnes, and Maurer become legal eagles in the suitcase college and compete with Patterson to be the most dignified man in the chapter. And so on runs the spirit of Kappa Sigma, bucking the war and going strong to the last, This was a year filled all the way through with trials, tribulations, hopes, successes and failuresfa year which as fraternity brothers in Kappa Sigma we will never forget.
