Through 1929-30 With Butler University (By MARGUERITE DORIOT) The year 1929-30 — the s econd year of the greater Butler university on the new Fairview cam- pus — has been marked with notable achievements and successes. Butler has forged ahead with unfaltering steps, guided wisely and well by the Board of Di- rectors, headed by Hilton U. Brown. The splendid advancement which the university has made during the past year was made possible only through the keen foresight, sound judgment and untiring energy with which these men worked to further the interests of Butler. Materially the new campus has been improved until the rough edges have been smoothed and beauty has replaced crudeness and ugliness. Lawns have been graded and sodded, walks, and steps around the Arthur Jordan Memorial hall have been finished, and from time to time work has been done on the roads approaching the building. A welcome and essential improvement was the placing of boulevard lights along the walks to and around Jordan hall. Fraternity row to the south of the administration building is no longer an unbroken row of vacant, unpromising lots. One new fraternity house has been completed, two are in process of construction, and several more are being projected. The first outstanding event of the school year was home-coming which was celebrated October 18 and 19. Friday evening the students gathered on the campus for a pep session which was followed by a parade through the down town district. Friends and followers of Butler and other spectators lined the sidewalks to witness the parade made up of floats of all types and descriptions, which were the work of the Greek letter organizations. There followed another pep session and celebration on the steps of the Soldiers ' and Sailors ' monument. Kick-in was presented by Thespis, dramatic organization, at the Civic theater in November. The annual blanket hop, sponsored by Sigma Delta Chi, was held in the Travertine room of the Hotel Lincoln November 28 at which time the journalistic fra- ternity brought forth its yearly razz sheet, bearing the name The Butler Klejin.
