Beta Chi Theta Pres. ................... Pat Campbell V . Pres. 81 Treas ....... Joanne Beernich Sec. ................... Ellen Ladwig Social Chairman .......... Alice Crofts Pledge Warden ........... Mary King F all came and the Carroll Campus buzzed with the enthusiasm of Beta girls. Orientation Week found Alice Crofts, co-chairman with Pat Campbell and Mary King to ably assist her. Rushing began with a whirl of activities beginning with a truly impressive tea at the home of Mrs. James Frisch. Beta iiSno Snugii as an informal party theme proved to be a very successful event. And finally following our annual Treasure Island dinner with traditional orchids, we again found ourselves with the largest pledge class of the rushing season. In the midst of all these rushing festivities we honored our advisor, Dr. Alida Degler, 0f the language department, who has been with us for more than twenty years. After weeks of planning Homecoming arrived and with it a parade of beautiful floats. Beverly Mann represented us in the queeifs court. Party time came too. Swinging doors, giving the effect of an old cabaret was the theme for a gala iiBums Brawl? Highlight of the evening was the crowning 0f the iiKing 0f Bums? A Christ- mas party with Santa and his helper was the next of our many activities. Most of all we enjoyed the annual Blue Carter Dance held at the Avalon Hotel. iiBeta Through the Years: with various dances and songs carried out the theme. It was enjoyed by all, particu- larly our guests for the evening, Mr. and Mrs. Huddleston and Mr. and Mrs. Heyer. It was also our pleasure to have as our guests girls from each of the other social groups. Cheneque Country Club, for the second successive year, was the scene of our Beta Spring F or- mal. Tom Turkey dinner with all the trimmings left us in a fine mood to dance to the modern music of the Varitones. We know our seniors will be sad to depart from our lively traditions. Most outstanding in our Beta Life this past year was the fact that we celebrated two Founder Days, Beta Chi Thetzfs last on F ebruary 14, and Alpha Gamma Delta,s first on May 30. Truly a pioneer in sorority organization, having been the first on the Carroll Campus founded in 1910, we now find ourselves the newest organization in sorority life. On May 17 we were formally initiated into Alpha Gamma Delta as the Beta Epsilon Chapter. The following day we were hostesses t0 Carrollis social groups at a Presentation Tea at the Ava- lon Ilotel. XVith the close of another year, a feeling of satisfaction is found within the group - a feeling that we have successfully completed another year. Page One Hundred Eighteen

F irst seen is a picture of fall rushing that began with a wonderful tea at Mrs. Hunters, a lively clown party, and a fine Symphony Dinner. It climaxed in the pledging of a grand pledge class. Next is Homecoming with everyone working hard on our iiChill Cornelli, float. The hard work resulted in Theta Deltais winning for the fourth consecutive year. Along side were proud of Carol Cunningham, who reigned as Homecoming Queen. Sports fill the next picture with Chi Ofs capturing the Volley ball trophy and running close for the Basketball. Spring brought fun in badminton and soft ball contests. Our first party had Will F redrickson crowned as our iiSweater Man? The pledges presented a wonderful time with their iiCott'on Ball,, and the actives were at their command for the evening. Evelyn VVehrmeyer and Bob Sladkey reigned as King and Queen of Hearts at our Valentines Dance. Chi Omegais were also very proud of Joan Pritzlaff who was selected as Phi Theta To- mata and Pat Gleich who represented us in the Smile Queen contest. Lila Radke was our repre- sentative in the Oratorical contest and was selected as Junior Prom Queen. Chi O,s worked hard on Hatchet Holiday and On their booth at the SCA Carnival. iiRate Your Dateii won Second prize and gave all a chance to test their hugging power. April 5 was the 57th birthday of Chi Omega and Theta Delta celebrated it with annual Spring Eleusinian Tea held at the Presbyterian Church. Spring brought us the SCA Sing and we practiced for weeks on an all Gershwin group of tunes. Soft lights, fine foods and sweet music made a fine setting for our last picture, the Spring F ormal held at Oakton Manor to top of a wonderful year. With graduation many fine seniors will leave the Chi 0 gallery that meant so many fine times, fun and fellowship, laughter and a few senior tears as the end drew near, and the best wishes of the girls coming back for another year in Theta Delta of Chi Omega.
