It's A Lifetime Committment Excitement and energy seemed to sur- round the members of Phi Kappa Alpha. Wherever the red and white jerseys could be found, there seemed to be a flurry of activity and enthusiasm. With the reputation of being one of the largest clubs on campus, PKA kept up the tradition of excellence. This year, PKA con- tinued to be at the top. For the ninth consec- utive semester, Phi Kappa walked away with the social club trophy. For the second con- secutive year, the social club took top hon- ors during Makin' Music. In intramurals, PKA was hard to stop. They ended up with the most total points in both performance and participation. Once you are in, you are in foreverflf' Brian Beck With two of the most dedicated sponsors, Al Price and Jim Maxwell, PKA was virtually unbeatable. Price stated, lt's great when a club can be competitive and a family at the same time. One of the highlights of the year was the Phi Kappa Alpha Reunion. Members from the very first PKA were present for the reunion. The reunion took place during the weekend of Makin, Music. The reunion had two purposes said Danny Sorrell, former PKA president. First, to get members to- gether from the past and the present to talk about the changes that have occurred in PKA and second, to help boost the spirits of the group performing in Makin' Music. Officers for Phi Kappa Alpha included Brian Beck, president, David Shannon, men's vice president, Judy England , wom- en's vice president, Tammy Barnes, secre- tary, C.R.Gaines, treasurer, Bob Morris and Scott Sams, men's sports captain, Amy Gaines, women's sports captain and David Shannon and Mark Hawk, chaplain. When asked about the club, Brian Beck, president, said, Being a member of Phi Kappa Alpha is a lifetime committment. Once you are in, you are in forever. W Picking and Grinning!!!

Delta Phi I-las Great Second Year A'Fly Delta Phi urged the members of Lambda Delta Phi as they encouraged new students to consider the possibilities of mem- bership in the smallest and newest campus social club. Despite its size, the club boosted spirit and offered the chance for immediate involvement, This spirit and involvement re- sulted in a second place finish in the fall and spring competitions for the social club tro- phy. The club finished first in chapel pro- grams and in a tie for first place in college and community service. After having to drop out of Makin' Music '86, the club won the Jerry Jones Award for best exemplifying the spirit of Makin' Mu- sic during the 1987 show. Delta Phi's show was centered around the foxes and hounds. It was the first attempt for the group to enter Makin' Music as a group of newcomers took the stage. Activities for the year included a Thanks- giving food drive and a campus clean-up. The group also enjoyed pizza parties, an ice cream party, a midnight breakfast, and a retreat at Lake I.aJoie. ln sports, the smurf basketball team fin- ished first and the softball and football teams finished second in the fall. According to President Curtis Gogel, i'Delta Phi is the smallest club on campus but we have a lot of spirit. This is shown by coming in second in club standings in the fall of '86 and receiving the Jerry Jones Award at Makin' Music '87. Delta Phi is no longer the club of the future, but it is an excellent club now. Officers in addition to Gogel are: men's vice president, Randy Grissettg womenls vice president, Kim Choat, secretary, Susan Davisg treasurer, Bryan Armentroutg men's sports captain, Craig Bennett, women's sports captains, Amy Moore and Donna Hughesg SGA representative, Jimmy Dil- lingerg historian, Kim Lingreng and chaplain, Rusty Adair.
