Omicron Alpha Pi This year was a very successful one for the Omicron Alpha Phi fraternity. Our officers for the year were: President, Billy Smithg vice- president, Larry Ames, secretary, John Oliverg treQ1rer, Howard Rousheyg sergeant-at-arms, Doug Mayhew. Sixteen meetings, including one at the Golf Club and two in the Trianon room, were held, We also sponsored a hay- ride, several houseparties, and a dance, all of which helped our financial status. Gold frat pins were purchased by those who didn't al- ready have them, and a fruitless attempt was made to get hats and T shirts. We ranked high in interfraternal sports, and we were well represented in the school activities. Be- cause several boys have gone into the armed forces and because a large number of our members left with the graduating class last year, we had fewer members than in previous years. Even though there was a decreasing amount of interest in all the fraternities this year, we felt that they could be kept going until after the war, when things again may return to normal. XYZ ? Fraternity Ever since its organization in 1926, the XYZ? fraternity has ranked high in scholas- tic and social standing. This year opened with an initiation, at which the following became members: Ray Woodley, Ted Goulden, Mark Coloton, Ray Mousaw, Jerry Stover, James Corcoran, and John Haney. This brought the membership up to twenty-one. The following were selected to govern the fraternity for the year 1943-1944: President, Denzil Bowman, vice-president, Jack Cornellg secretary, Don Forsythe, treasurer, Ed Mar- ting sergeant-at-arms, .Bob Hall. Mr. Raw- lins acted as advisor. During the course of the year, Clayton Besaw and Leon Howe joined the armed forces. Members of the fraternity helped to compose all the athletic teams. The greatest success of the year was the XYZ? .Sock Dance, held in the gym. To end one of the most success- ful years, the XYZ? fraternity held a second degree and a banquet. Phi Phi Chi ' This year marked the completion of the seventh year since the organization of the fra- ternity, As usual, it ranked high in social, scholastic, and athletic standards. Bob Whalen, our president, left for the armed forces soon after the fall term began, but Vernon Gray capably led the fraternity throughout the remainder of the year. Our activities began with an initiation at which Jim Taylor, Web Robinson, and Neil Armstrong were admitted to the fraternity. The first dance of the year was held by the Pi Pi Chi's and proved to be very successful. Officers for the year were: President, Bob Whalen and Vernon Gray, vice-president, Ed Heimg secretary-treasurer, Bob Merrillg ser- geant-at-arms, Roger Stoney faculty advisor, Mr. Meng. O. A. P.
