FORUM?- DELTA THETA PHI L'OOI.liY SENATE In the month of june, nineteen hundred and thirty A. D., Cooley Senate celebrates the'twenty-seventh year ct its existence. The character members of this senate may well be pleased with their brain-child long since grown into maturity. Let us turn back a quarter of a century to the year nineteen hundred and three. Gathered in the halls of the old school were several young students anxiously awaiting word from the National Fraternity l'lead'quarters. :Xt last they camel Art Kilpatrick spoke the magic words to Harry Dingeman, Pliny Marsh, Ed. Command. and Eugene O'Brien that their chapter had been accepted in this Fraternity. Thus it came about in this way that our senate was founded. The fraternal spirit of these Honorabfe men mentioned above has guided us and has furnished us the inspira- tion through these years of hardships and successes. It is indeed titting, then, that we present to them a healthy senate which has just passed through its greatest year of attainment. Upon this page a few of our activities should be recorded. Socially, a Hallowe'el1 party on a farm in a suburb of Detroit was found to be of novel attraction and a house party at the Fraternity House at 138 Pallister Ave. was splendidly attended. But the most extensive gesture of the year was the annual Christmas Ball at the Book- Cadillac. This was sponsored by the three senates of Detroit which lent gaiety and the spirit of youth to the occasion tempered by the presence of our elder brethren. In school activities, a goodly number of the leaders were chosen from our ranks. Brothers XYatson, Stevens, Beauchamp, XY. XYright and jacques being held in high esteem. A new policy of drilling candidates has been followed so our youngest members come to us trained in our history and tradition. A law library has been installed by this senate for the access of the brethren who have need for the Michigan Reports. Prospects are bright for the oncoming year. It seems to be the ambition of every class to make the subsequent year one of greater ettort. As long as this procedure continues, the perpetuation of the fraternity in this school will be assured and the prestige of the organization will rise to still greater heights. RALPH FINLEY, Tribune.

Farmer Charles ti. Robb FRATER IX FACCLTY David E. Roberts During the past year Sigma Xu I'hi has been able to maintain that enviable posi- tion which it has acquired, through the earnest cooperation of its members. Many new members have been added to our ranks. XYe hope that they will be able to enjoy the privileges that we otier. Social activities have been very fervent. The retiring officers have labored zealously to uphold those principles for which we stand. The officers for 1929 were: Chancellor, Ralph B. Guy: First Yice Chancellor, C. XVillard Gitzen: Second Vice Chancellor. George H. XYilsong Master of the Rolls. G. Cameron Bu- chanan: Registrar of the Exchequer, Lawrence H. Hoeferg Marshall. Charles Deeg. Our Chapter expects to be the host of the High Court of Chancery to be held in Detroit in l95l. It is with deep regret that we record the passing of the Honorable NYilliam Howard Taft, the twenty-seventh President of the Cnited States and former Chief justice of the Supreme Court, which occurred at his home in XYashington, D. C., on March 8, 1930. Uur chapter. which was founded in 1915, was named in his honor and with his per- mission. NYe have always felt greatly honored to have had so great a citizen as our first honorary member. His life and achievements are matters of such common knowledge that they need no eulogy. May each member strive to perpetuate those ideals that he has established. Page One Hundred Forty-seven
