KAPPA GAMMA CHI Quips, jollity, and scintillating repartee — that’s Kappa! And the quin- tessence — those gay episodic week-ends in the Berkshires — the congeniality of the Henich’s. Ah me! Who can forget their haystack? Or that first breath- less snowfall on the week-end in Bethlehem? Or the teasing aroma of robust charcoal steaks on that memorable week-end at the Kenney’s in Freedom, New Hampshire? And, of course, the Kappa baby, Edward Anson Robbins? Remember Mrs. Wade’s studio suppers: firelight, group singing, warmth, and friendship? The trips to the Cape, the Elsa Maxwell rush party, the heroic climb up Mt. Washington, the formal teas, the gracious hospitality of the Mc- Kinley’s . . . And who could forget those candid camera shots! Yes, we are glad for all the sparkling gaiety Kappa epitomizes. But first in our memories will be the opportunity it gave us to contribute our share as war-conscious Americans. We are proudest of our persistent drive for the pur- chase of war bonds and stamps. Those exhilarating discussions in the smoker . . . the philosophies of dream- ers with an ideal. Four colorful years in Kappa, a brief reconnoiter, and then on with the play!

STUDENT GOVERNMENT ASSOCIATION One of the most democratic groups at Emerson, the Student Government Association represents the self-governing powers of the student body. Under the new constitution the organization is smaller than formerly, and includes two representatives from each class. The successful Inter-Class Dance at the Hotel Statler last October, held in honor of the freshman class, was the first social function of the year to be spon- sored by the S. G. A. Later in the year there will be other activities under the leadership of the association. The tasteful and lovely re-decorating of the smoker during Christmas va- cation is an example of the good work done by this organization. Page Twenty-six

There was the entertaining of the National President and the State Chairman which started ’4l-’42 off with a bang, and things just haven’t let up since. Then followed a Faculty Party (with the smoker still in its renovated state) and the initiation of Dr. Wiley and Mr. Wade as hon- oraries. By the way, did you go to the May dance last year — the one we put on with Phi Alpha Tau? We certainly hope you didn’t miss the presentation of all the new sorority members (we added nine last year — the Luau, you know). And farewell parties at the Lincolnshire — never liked farewells before! This year we surely do miss Andrus, Brendlin, Cox, Flill, and Wilson, and finally Miss Nancy Doble (sorry — we mean Mrs. Berbrick! ). But there’s our presentation of Mr. Connor (honorary of ours) with his Romeo and Juliet eve- ning, planned for the middle of February. And there are always teas and other things. Nothing dampens our spirits to the extent that we can’t enjoy one an- other’s company. And with Mrs. Anthony” still in our midst — well, need I say more? Page T ivenly-eight
