'A . , NM zf- A-...+ if .3 . ri P 2, MPH TAU UMEG The local Taus began this year with their first formal rush season to be held in their chapter house. A great deal of work was done by the members in readying the house for the first return of members and the arrival of the first out-of-town rushees. This was the year of sports for Alpha Tau Omega. Taking first place, with the accompanying trophies, in football and volleyball, the Tulsa Taus entered strong teams in all other sports in a bid to retain possession of the Iron Man Trophy won by the chapter last year in intra-mural sports. The three traditional social events of the ATOls proved again to be out- standing functions on the campus. The Black and White Ball in mid-December was highlighted by the crowning of Miss Virginia Shleppey as the third Sweet- heart of Alpha Tau Omega. In early March the local chapter celebrated the eighty-fourth anniversary of the beginning of the national organization. A celebration of their own birthday was held in May when the chapter gathered at the Blackfoot Ball in honor of the fifth year of leadership of Alpha Tau Omega on the University of Tulsa campus. Numerous smaller social functions, many held at the chapter house, rounded out the rest of the year's social activity. Election to campus offices seemed to be the order of the day for ATO's when Dick Lockwood was elected president of the Sophomore classg Jim Harris became Junior class president, and the Seniors voted Bob Bayless back into the office of Treasurer, the same position he had held as a Junior. Jack Gentry carried on capably as Chairman of the Intramural Committee of the Community Council. Dean Lovejoy captured top honors when he was elected the first President of the newly-created Inter-Fraternity Cabinet, one of the highest positions offered on the campus. When the Golden Hurricane presented itself, ATO's found brother Jimmy Ford ending the football season as the second ranking pass receiver in the nation. John Brechin and Sam Cooke showed their basketball prowess on the Armory's floor. Much credit for the success and enjoyment of the chapter was due to our beloved housemother, Mrs. William F. Bensing.
