ALPHA XI DELTA 7TTa | Left to Right FRONT ROW Margaret lieu., who has red hair, and is a P. K. (Professor’s kid, or poor kid). Ida Jennie Collins, who hv her fall rush, managed to get the chapter in society this year. She placed in the beauty contest. Margaret Rommei., who is president of the group “above the rest . Margaret keeps the quills scratching for that scholarship cup. She is terribly interested in the navy just now. Mary Crane, who has only two worries in the world—her curly hair and Sam. Next we sec Megan Riiys, an Alpha “little Sister . Megan's worries are of a theological nature at present. The Sig Ep theologians have worried more than Megan during the past year. Maxine Fullmer, who stayed home the first semester to earn and save money to come see John on the week end. Mid Warren, who behaves as an engaged girl should. Secondly, she refused to he entered in any more beauty or May Queen contests. SECOND ROW Margaret Reckmeyer, who came all the way from Nebraska to be an Alpha Xi. Her solemn look is caused by habitual thoughts of being accused of writing Campus Lab. Verla Ram bo, whose beau is only a rainbow sometimes. Vera could rate if she would get over high school ideas. She seems to enjoy being a martyr. Poor kid. Marjorie Kaumgarten, who ranked second in her high school class of twelve. Marjorie will undoubtedly make Iota Phi. Lucille Heckman and Frances White extend sympathy. Louise (Jottschalc, who has a Phi Delt brother. Ixtuise has it in big quantities, but lacks the encouragement of the sisters to get over. Louise Hall, who didn’t get to wash her hair just before the picture was taken, and the photograph doesn’t do Louise justice, for she looks as frightened in the picture as she does in Husccmi’s class. Other members of this exclusive group were officially detained and so do not appear in this picture. Page 19$

1 Prof. Dennis: “Young man, do you know who I am?” Freshman Chickering: “Gosh. no! Now don’t tell me you’re Lon Chaney, the actor.” Host: “Shall we join the ladies?” Guest: No, thank you; I never smoke.” j Orville Loper (at 1 a. m.) : “I heard a ghost story the other night—by jove, it did make me start!” Alice Heckman: “I wish I knew it.” Consolation Don’t worry if your job is small And your rewards are few; Remember that the mighty oak Was once a nut like you. A leaf in the shade will bend to the sun, A vine on a trellis will wind and run, A bird on a bough will sing a song. A bell in a church will ring ding dong; So given a night, a girl, and the moon, What in the world can you do but spoon ? A little boy was told he must go to the hospital to have his tonsils and adenoids removed. “Well. Mamma,” said Johnny, “1 ain’t ’fraid of going to the hospital. I II be brave and do just as they tell me. Hut I’m not going to let them palm off a baby on me, like they did to you when you was there.” Goetznian: “Gerth’s awfully absent-minded, isn’t he?” Art. Morrow: “Why?” Goetznian: “Why, the other night he was driving his parents over a lonely road and they came to a particularly lonely spot and before he knew it he had parked the car.” y.vy.v, .v '- w vv. -vax.-w a Page 200
