Alpha Kappa Nu Alpha Kappa Nu began the scholastic year of 1946-47 with a unique situation. For the first time in its history, it welcomed into its fraternal fold a group of pledges larger than the actives membership. Fourteen new men entered the college department to be greeted by only a handful of ten actives, truly a deplor- able situation. With their usual adroitness in handling pledges liPrexy Turner, pledgemaster liSimon St. John, and the rest kept the mob in control by cutting down the pledge period and putting the neophytes through their inititation on November 24th. With the large influx of new men the fraternity was loaded with potential material at the annual football game between the fraternity and the seminary, and under the skillful hand of Coach Grandfather Penny, a smooth team took form. Consequently, Alpha Kappa Nu began early in the fall to clamor for the game which the seminary was reluctant to play because of lacking material. Finally the seminary was shamed into playing in November only to go down in ignomin- ious defeat before the triumphant collegians. It was a great day for Alpha Kappa Nu, as this was its first victory in several years. ' In December the fraternity gave a Christmas party for all on the Nashotah campus. The Gay Nineties theme was a huge success with Leatherburyls Lively Ladies, since gaining international repute, and with Little Nell Wardrop acclaimed as the finest character actors on the campus. Dean Nutter was heard to say afterwards that it was the most apoplectic show he had ever seen. The fraternity had not realized previously that it had such acting talent, and incidently directoral ability in the person of iiBarrymoreil Scott and his committee. With the turn of the new year the fraternity expected several new men who failed to show up. This alleviated the pledge problem, and allowed the fraternity to turn to constructive projects on the campus. Under the able guidance of Sergeant Penny and Corporal Wardrop funds were collected for the provision of recreational facilities and furnishings for the common room. The organization looks back on a pleasant year of development and growth, and welcomes a new year with a larger membership and the prospects of greater achievements. Page Ninety-tbree
