It is, however, looking forward to a new and better era in the near future. I ACTIVE MEMBERS Carl Bartholomaus Henry Marron David Fox Lester Flagg INACTIVE MEMBERS A. Henris G. Mischenko Morris Katz G. Townsend L. Nadleman T. Hessler G. Lederle Terpsichorean Club Once in every Aggie's life comes a strange impulse-the urge to trip the light fantastic. It is to foster this social spirit that we have organized. Naturally, the greater majority are Seniors, although the lower classes are well and ably represented. Our aim is to further all social activities on the campus. and off the campus. Wliile our headquarters are at Nyssa, our efforts are not confined to local endeavors. We have reason to believe that the Aggie Terps are well known throughout Long Island. I I The approaching graduation fills us with sorrow: for we are to lose ff I most of our best men. Wfe take this opportunity of wishing them a most prosperous future. May they trip through life as lightly as they did here at Nyssa. :RQ CHARTER MEMBERS 'T I E. CMannyj XN'ohlberg. Pres.

It is the only agricultural chapter in the fraternity, and through association with our brothers in other professions such as Medicine, Law and Engineering, we have succeeded in impressing upon them the fact that Agriculture is on a level with their professions, beyond a doubt. S. O. P. has always striven to foster in every way, scholastic, athletic and literary endeavors, not only among its members but among the entire student body. S. O. P. men have always stood out not as members of a fraternity, but as men who have always worked for the good of Nyssa. In departing, the graduating members feel sure that the ideals of Sigma Omega Psi will be perpetuated for all time at Nyssa. 'ACTIVE FRATRES N. Daniels I I. Factorowitz S. Kallman S. Foster S.

Wohlberg A Phi Alpha Tau Phi Alpha Tau has completed its third year at Nyssa, and this will be the first year she loses active members through graduation. We want to sayto the graduating members that those of us who remain will keep up and pass on the ideals and'work of the fraternity as those before us have done. As any other organization in its infancy, Phi Alpha Tau has had its ups and downs, but we have always kept up our work in scholastics, athletics and the general social activities of the school. A As this institute is now on the road to success, through the able leader- ship of our new director, so will Phi Alpha Tau follow in its footsteps and some day become one of the leading fraternities of the school.
