October, l9-l5 North, the fraternity, Manhattan's old- est, stands as truly symbolic ot Manhat- tan life, Standing out like the bright sun- light is the active pride and genuine in- terest that the fraternity members take in the effort to perpetuate the aims of the Alma Mater. It is for this reason that Alpha Sigma Beta strives to obtain only the finest quality of manhood to uphold the name of Manhattan. This also ac- counts for the fact that the fraternity demands so much of its pledgees. The fraternity is composed of an Active Body which consists of its under- graduate members, and a Supreme Body, which consists of the alumni. This fact not only establishes the fraternity as a father and son affair but it has also en- abled Alpha Sigma Beta to benefit the college by making numerous contribu- tions. These include: the Angelus Bell, which has become one of Manhattan's 2 AEB most sacred traditions. and substantial financial aid and backing in the building of the Cardinal Hayes Library, and many other noteworthy contributions. The social life of the fraternity is cal- culated to blend smoothly with social life on the campus. Fraternity sponsored dances as well as other fraternity func- tions provide a wealth of enjoyment and entertainment for the entire college. There you have a picture of Manhat- tan's oldest fraternity, proud of its mem- bers and more proud of its endeavor to bring fame to the name of Manhattan.

October, 1945 BE TA SI GM A HE Delta Chapter of Beta Sigma has since its inception in l927 been a bulwark of the social life of the College. The fraternity was founded on the sound Catholic principles of loyalty, fidelity and good fellowship. Beta Sigma exists primarily to perpetuate the good name of Manhattan and to foster Cath- olic Action. W'hile it is not the oldest fraternity on the campus, it is already a Manhattan tradition, for Beta Sigma is deeply rooted in the very soil of the College. Always a promoter of Manhattan's best interests, Beta Sigma has become as much a part of the true Manhattan spirit as any other 2 campus organization. The membership of this select and esoteric group has in- cluded a great many of Manhattan's famous and favorite sons. These men have been the leaders of the various campus clubs, the Student Council, and members of the honor societies. Others have distinguished themselves in the field of writing, debating and dramatics. The interests of the college have been paramount in the hearts of Beta Sigma men. The fraternity has always rallied to the call of her Alma Mater in her hour of need and never has a Beta Sigma man failed to uphold the glorious traditions of Religio, 'fMores and Cultura
