Il' 'YI - was ! elim eggs SIGMA CHI OMEGA The Sigma Chi Omega was founded in 1925 by thirteen students, at that time attending the Los Angeles College of Chiropractic. These charter members, who subsequently became doctors, were: Herbert Burgess, Robert Dobbs, Bud Donahue, Harold V. Harding, Clyde E. Knouf, Edwin Lindsey, Frank Migilore, Mort Miller, Herbert Nelson, William Noll, Howard Norcross, Guy Perry, and Alden Rollins. Most college fraternities, by their very nature, are closed groups formed with the aim of expanding their membership through selection only. The Sigma Chi Omega, in this respect, is no exception. The founders were desirous of securing members of moral integrity, high intelligence, and who entertain charity and good-will toward their fellowmen. High scholastic standing has always been appreciated in the pledge, but it alone, has never been permitted to be stressed to a degree of excluding those several traits which collectively comprise a sterling character. In other words, the founders wanted the members of the Sigma Chi Omega to have hearts as well as heads. The fraternity grew but slowly during the first few years. ln the last part of the twenties it gained some momentum, only to be slowed again during the depression era as well as during the World War II period. However, as the student enrollment improved in the post-war period, so the frater- nity also expanded. At the present time it counts some 53 members. There are three undergraduate chapters: the Alpha Alpha, Glendale, Alpha Epsilon, Oakland, and Alpha Zeta, Balti- more, Md. Two graduate chapters exist: the Omega Alpha, Long Beach, and Omega Beta, Los Angeles. The eve of initiation ' What! more demerilx? rl FM .
