THIRST in the list of honor societies is - - Pen and Sword, traditionally the most significant group on the college campus, and dedicated to the fostering of interest in extra- curricular affairs. Membership is by unanimous vote of the previous year ' s members. This leaves, then, only seniors in the capacity of active Pen and Swordsmen. The term wheels has been applied lightly, though not incorrectly, to this club of after-hour patriots. The past year provided a banner crop, of you-know what. Under the guiding hand of president Paul Nicholson the society put their fingers in Pen and Sword many campus plums, sometimes acting as Pen and Swordsmen, sometimes as officers of their own clubs. No matter, things got done. Athletic rallies were held, speakers were sponsored, public religious devotions were arranged, and the First Annual Tapping Dance was given at the Waldorf-Astoria. Whatever the personal accomplishments of each individual, they remain small in con- trast to the total impetus effected on the college as a whole. The yearbook was pub- lished, the senior prom paid expenses, the Christmas show struggled to glory, and so on. Extra-curricular activity has returned to the peacetime le ' el, and Pen and Swords- men know the reasi:)n why. 170

Epsilon Sigma Pi I7PSILON SIGMA PI IS the most exxlusive organization at Manliattan College. Its membership is always small because the feats accomplished by its few in number are difH- cult achievements indeed. The members sur- mounted the most difficult scholastic hurdles and approached commencement with a 3.4 index which is battins: far o ' er .-400 in the academic league. The students pictured below ha ' e maintained an a ' erage which borders close to the enchanted straight A. The society was founded at Manhattan College in 19.33 as a means of due recogni- tion to the students wht)se major interest was their studies. In spite of war time interrup- tions and the subsequent reacclimation pe- riod, the present members of Epsilon Sigma Pi lea e Manhattan cum laude. 171
