BECKERLOGUE ALPHA OMICRON F RATERNITY HE years of 1937 and 1938 have brought progress to Alpha Omicron. Organ- ized in 1929, it stands as the oldest fraternal organization in the collegeg and with the acquisition of its own borne in 1936, it has gathered prestige to the point where June 1938 will mark the close of the finest year in its history. Starting their social season with an open house night at the fraternity residence last October, the members did much toward extra-curricular activities with monthly house dances. In the February dance, the appearance of Ken Reeves' band made a crowning success of the A.O. social functions. The Wednesday evening open house policy enabled members and guests to hold informal debates and bridge parties. Alpha Omicron again sponsored a basketball team in the Lincoln Square tourneyg although it did not fare so well as in previous years, the team was a credit to the group. Twice during the year new members were admitted who were put through the ordeal of a week,s initiation, felt the weight of paddles, and catered to the whims and desires of the seniors.
