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

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!

SIGMA DELTA CHI Looking back at four happy and eventful years as Sigma Delts” at Emer- son makes it very difficult to say goodbye” to all the jolly times we had to- gether — but for consolation we always have our reminiscences. We can always remember and live again our hectic but happy days of be- ing rushed and Tea-d” at the Statler, and our even happier experience of be- ing pledged. We can laugh at the riotously funny Hell-night,” and we can still sense the fragrance of those lovely gardenia corsages which were presented to us at the impressive candlelight initiation. And then — that ultimate feel- ing of importance upon becoming full-lfedged members of the sorority. There are other things never to be forgotten — our weekly meetings on six” in our cozy smoker, those inevitable lively discussions and bull-sessions, and last but certainly not least, our glorious farewell in May to school and .sorority at our bang-up” formal at the Ritz. Yes, these are the things we can remember for many years to come, even though we have to say goodbye” to all of it now. And these things we will remember, for fond memories always linger on . . .
