Notwithstanding the depression, inflation, bank closings and the like, the majority of the fraternities have flourished and increased in size. Although some groups quite active in 4 former years did not function at all, most of them displayed remarkable activity. There is a strong temptation every now and then, for fraternities to place greater stress on the quantity, rather than the quality and calibre of their initiates. This year it may be truthfully stated that character was the chief trait sought for-and obtained. Z Phi Delta Phi led by Ferdinand V.. S. Parr, Jr., inducted some fifteen men into its membership rolls. The results of the Moot Court, an innovation in fraternity circles, were most gratifying. At the same time these trials afforded an educational divertissement, heretofore unused in the Inn. The outstanding function of the year was the Founder's Day Banquet which was held at Keene's Chop House in April. Among those present, were Supreme Court justice MacCrate and Mayor Walter Otto of New Rochelle. The Iota Theta Law fraternity under the leadership of Milton I. Wein- traub, its Praetor, and aided by Milton I. Gershenson, and Irving Reiman, succeeded in establishing a fine record of performance. The feature of the year's activities was the Stag Banquet which marked the 20th anniversary of the founding of the Iota Theta Law Fraternity. The Iota Chapter of Phi Kappa Delta under the guidance of N. Kenneth Gross, its Reximus, retained its high standing in fraternal circles. Realizing the necessity for a practical knowledge of medicine in successful legal practice, the educational committee sponsored a series of cultural smokers at which time, the Doctors Joseph Freedman, jacob Rabinovitch and George I. Swetlow, were heard on topics of current medico-legal interest.

The group boasts a roster that has almost I doubled in size since the beginning of the semester. Outstanding among its 0 achievements in the past year, was the establishment of monthly forums at which lectures were given by members of the Brooklyn Law School Faculty. With the acquisition of new quarters at 58 Court Street, Lambda Chapter of Kappa Phi Sigma, has made rapid strides in the past few months. The genial atmosphere of the spacious rooms was, in a large measure, responsible for the increase in membership, and for the apparent fuller enjoyment of affairs held there. I I Despite a dull start partially attributable to a lack of members, Iota Sigma Alpha completed its seasonal activities in fine fettle. The group gives promise of becoming a potent factor in Fraternity Row during 1933-34. Page 0-ne Hundred Tlfifly-nine
