1 . Sigma Sigma Phi HONORARY FRATERNITY l i i i r HE need for an organization of men bound together to promote better fellowship and better scholarship in our school, has long been felt by the student body. To Hll this need in college life there came into existence on October twentyfthird, 1921, in Old Memorial Hall, the honorary Interefraternity body, Sigma Sigma Phi. This band of men have for their aims not only the promotion of each individual, but also hope, by their influence on college life to aid in maintaining K. O. C. as the foremost Osteopathic The gratitude with which the student body received the organization is shown by the fact that after almost hve years of service to the college, Sigma Sigma Phi has never been rivaled in carrying out its activities in the school. The membership of Sigma Sigma Phi is selected from the upper three classesjfiff teen from each class and chosen so that each fraternity and the nonffraternity men are included. The fraternity also has two members of the faculty numbersd on its roll, Dr. F. L. Bigsby, the faculty advisor, and Dr. George Fulton, an honorary member. The year 1925426 has been perhaps the most successful since the inception of the organization. Three interfFraternity tournaments have been sponsored, namely, basket' ball, baseball and golf. In addition to these activities a scholarship cup has been offered to the group that lead the campus in grades. This cup is new this year and from the interest manifest by the different organizations, it has met with hearty approval from Sigma Sigma Phi is now a national osteopathic fraternity. A chapter was installed at the Des Moines Still College of Osteopathy shortly before school was out last year. This embryo chapter has acquired the spirit of the Alpha Chapter and is now a valuable factor in college life at Des Moiiies. Plans are under vvay to establish chapters in other Osteopathic Colleges and it will only be a fevv years until Sigma Sigma Phi will be firmly Our men are active in the affairs of the college this year. We have the President of the Associated Students, President of the lovver senior and junior classes besides various class oiiicers. The captain of the football team is numbered in our membership as is the Editor of the college paper. We are represented at the hospitals by a number of internes and have members on every varsity team in K. O. C. Our fraternity, we feel, has progressed satisfactorily thus far, and it is the sincere belief of every member of the organization that Sigma Sigma Phi will maintain its place of leadership in the college activities of this and any other school in which it may be found. We are very optomistic in regard to the coming year and We hope to make it even more successful than the gratifying year just closed.
