I Go to the Alpha Xi dding I had seen .iioiind ampus (|iii(L ' a liu skirls wealing sweat-shirts with the words Alpha Xi Delta on the front of them. The girls seemed to be vcr active in extra-cinricnlar activities, so I wondered to what organization thev be- longed. Miss Wilson informed me that this was one of the three national sororities on the campus. She told me that I.iicy Pe ion was president of the grotip and suggested that 1 go to her to learn more abotit them. I saw Lucy the next day, so I asked her about the sorority. She invited me to come to the next meeting, so that night I again lonnd myself sturounded by a roomtid ol girls. Not that I minded, for they were a most attractive group. First 1 met the officers: . far Lee Rusmisell, Helen Canterbury, Shirlev Hynies, Carrie Lou C.rcen, Helen Chidester. and Dr. Edna Miller, lacidtv adviser. I he girls then ga e me a brief histor of all their a(ti ities for the year. Their rush parly in October was the traditional wedding ol . lpha Xi Delta to the rtishec.
