CHEERLEADERS i'Come on Hartford, let's go, fight, win!' were the words resounding through the gym this year as the cheerleaders, under co-cap- tains Danne Mahon and Elloney Risley cheered the Hawks on to victory. They were an impressive sight in their scarlet sweaters and scarlet, pleated skirts. This striking uniform coupled with sparkling 7 new cheers proved an excellent drawing card for games this year. Their enthusiasm for basketball has done much to spark sup- port and interest in the games. With their help, it is hoped that the team will be spurred on to greater success in the future.

AMERICAN ROCKET SOCIETY Rockets are in the news. Tornorrow's engineers know their future importance and want to keep up with all the latest developments. Not to be left out, a group of engineers from the School of Engineering have formed a local chapter of the American Rocket Society, a national organization which has contributed much to our present knowledge in the missile and space field. Our university's scientifically inclined young men keep pace with this fast-moving area through studies, movies, and lectures during regular meetings. Members also attended the National Con- vention of the American Rocket Society. AMERICAN ROCKET SOCIETY First Row: R. Mulligan, R. Tweeddale, R. Gaines. Second Row: R. Horne, F. Conran.

Its name, which stands for Strength, Sisterhood, and Activity, also stresses high scholastic goals. The sorority meets each week to discuss and plan its many regular and special activities which include helping the needy on Thanksgiving, Christmas, and Easter, co-sponsor- ship with Lambda Phi Alpha of the annual Kampus Kick-off held at the start of each school year, and a gala costume dance held this year in February under the theme Shades of the Orient. This year one of the closed functions was a gourmet's delight. A banquet at which new officers were installed was held in June. The sisters are proud of the motto: Many Hearts, One Cause. Their colors are red, black, and silver, and the lily of the valley is their flower. l DELTA PHI ALPHA First Row: B. Devokaitis, E. Gelinas, S. Ebb, D. Grala, J. Kabai, B. Just, A. Seamon, M.
