A Message from the President I appreciate this opportunity to extend final greetings to the 1954-55 student body of Memphis State College, and especially to congratulate the members of the graduating class for achieving their goal. I wish, also, to commend the faculty advisor and the publication staff of this yearbook for their untiring efforts in publishing this annual. Naturally, one of the greatest sources of pride for any college and for the officials who direct the work of that college is the accomplishment and the achievement of the students. I am confident that the individual members of the 1955 graduating class will make outstanding contributions to the wel- fare of our city, our state and our nation. There are many evidences of achievement at Memphis State College during the past few years. Many new buildings have been erected, course offerings have been expanded, additional teachers and administrative officers have been employed, and the student enrollment has exceeded the 3150 mark. It has taken the combined efforts of all to reach this high level of educational opportunity that all of you deserve. It is my sincere desire that you will always remember pleasantly your Alma Mater, and as you thumb through the pages of the 1955 DeSoto you will recall with cherished memories some of the happy days you spent with us.

The Legislature of the Student Government The Student Government Association, which was reorganized this year under a new constitution, has as its main characteristic a check and balance system of government patterned after that of the United States. The three divisions of government are the Ex- ecutive Department, composed of the president of the student government and his cabinet; the Legis- lature, composed of the presidents of the chartered organizations on the campus, and the Judicial De- partment, composed of five student justices elected by the student body and two faculty members elected by the faculty. The government is the authoritative voice of the students and serves as a liaison agent between the students and the college administration. A number of other firsts are evident in the his- tory of the organization this year, including ( I ) the vice president presiding over the legislature (2) election of a speaker pro tempore for the legis- lature, and (3) the revival of the procedure of the legislature. s 7 ' ' «„; v oJt ° i. 13 CLASS OFFICERS CLASS OF 1955 tanding, back, from left to right: Johnny Avgeris, President; Tommy Rush, Treasurer; and Robert L.

Andre Obey calls his play Noah a fable. Perhaps this word best expresses the style in which the Biblical story is told. In the opening scene, Noah is seen building the ark according to specifications of the Master Builder. Occasionally he stops, turns his eyes toward heaven and asks how to solve the various problems of construction. Upon the scene come the animals, his wife and sons, and three feminine neighbors. Noah is attacked by one of the men of the village who believes him to be a sorcerer. As the rains begin, Noah and his crew leave the attacker on the land and board the vessel. In the following scenes, a conflict between Noah and his son Ham intensifies. Finally, Ham convinces his brothers Shem and Japhet and the others to mutiny. Noah, in his last desperate effort releases a dove. When the dove returns with a twig, the mutiny dissolves. After landing, Ham and Naomi, Shem and Sella, and Japhet and Ada go their separate ways, leaving Noah and Mamma alone. Mamma finally collapses under the ordeal. Noah turns to heaven and says that though the trial has been a difficult one, he is satis- fied and asks God, Are You Satisfied? And the curtains close as a rainbow appears in the sky.

Abigail Williams leads the group of young girls who cry out all of their personal enemies as witches, completely taking in Danforth, the Deputy Governor and Judge Hawthorn. The Reverend Samuel Parris, minister of Salem and the Rev- erend John Hale, professional witch-hunter, are at first in sym- pathy with the prosecution, but by the end of the play when Proc- tor and the town ' s most esteemed citizen, Rebecca Nurse, are con- demned to die, they are revolting against the justice of the court. The curtains close on the anguished figure of Elizabeth and the broken minister, Hale, as they hear the final rolls of the execu- tion drums.

Bradford White Technical Director Eugene Bence Stage Manager Allan Bates Floyd Herzog threatens Joan Smith as Diane Parrish watches. Papa Is All is the story of a despotic father and the revolt waged against him by Mama and their children, Jake and Emma. Papa uses the Mennonite tradition to suppress the comforts of ordinary life. Emma has fallen in love with a surveyor who wants to marry her. Jake wants to make simple machinery to simplify his chores on the farm. Mama wants, most of all, a telephone. Papa tries to crush all these desires. Emma, with the help of Mama and Jake, steals away from home to go to the local movie with her surveyor. All is well until Mrs. Yoder lets the secret slip. Papa seeks to avenge this outrage to the family honor by setting out to kill the surveyor. Jake, to protect his sister, knocks Papa in the head, parks their car (Papa ' s one concession) on the railroad tracks, throws Papa on the train which hits the car and then reports Papa Is All (dead.) The family, overjoyed, immediately sets about to remodel both home and farm. Papa returns in the midst of the renovation, bragging that he has shot the surveyor. It develops that Papa has been too hasty and has shot the wrong man. The family sides with the law. Papa is taken away as the surveyor arrives for his first call on Emma in her (re- modeled) house. Linda Claypool lets out the secret. Diane Parrish comforts Ronald Meroney and Joan Smith. ®fa :3m £ ' ' !

For the Fourth Annual Memphis Shakespeare Festi- val, Memphis State presented Macbeth, directed by Eugene Bence with technical direction by Bradford White. Since 1951 the highlights of the festival have been, chronologically, Twelfth Night, Romeo and Juliet, and The Taming of the Shrew. Each year the festival brings to Memphis plays, mov- ies, and lectures — all by or dealing with Shakespeare. The festival is a community wide project in which stu- dents and Memphians cooperate to further the under- standing and appreciation of the Bard. From left to right: President, J. M. Smith; Mrs. Charles H. Housholder, project chairman for Coterie; Mrs. R. K.

Fo rensics AlSS V Dir ctor gsfr Other members of the forensics group include, left to right, John Brown Turner, Conrad Shackleford, Clyde Carney, Carl Barker, James Hunt and Tommy Graham. The forensics group under the leadership of Miss Evelyn Kempe, is one of the best in the South and this year contin- ued the remarkable record that has been compiled by these speakers in recent years. Members participated in the Discussion Tournament at Tuscaloosa, Alabama, winning three superiors. They scored high in the TKA tournament in Memphis, in the Magnolia Tournament in Mississippi and at the Millsaps Tournament. For the Tennessee State Tournament note the winners below. Team members brought home additional trophies from the Mid-South Tournament at Conway, Arkansas; the Savage Tournament at Durant, Oklahoma; West Point Pre-Lims at Atlanta and the national TKA Tournament in Ohio. On home grounds the group did equally well in the Southern Speech Association meeting. In addition, members sponsored several speech programs at the college for visiting high school students. 40 At left: Carolyn Pruette and Mary Frances Brown admire the trophy they won by captur- ing the women ' s division in the Tennessee Tournament.

The cost of the elevator was $11,500. Its construction was made possible through the funds donated by Governor Frank Clement. The elevator is used by those students at MSC who are disabled or physically handicapped. At the occasion, R. R. Vance, supervisor of the State De- partment of Education, represented the Governor, and Presi- dent J. M. Smith spoke in behalf of the school. Mayor Frank Tobey spoke in behalf of Memphis. After the elevator was installed, Robert McHenry, Jack Hogue, and Donald Herring are transported safely from floor to floor.

GANUS, faculty luncheon speaker Greater Memphis State Alumni Association The Tiger Cluh Greater Memphis State and the Alumni Association once again were active in behalf of the college during the school year. And to this group of backers for MSC was added The Tiger Club, organized to assist in the promotion of Tiger athletics. The first two groups have their headquarters on the campus in the Public Relations-Alumni office. Bob DeZonia, college director of public relations, is secretary of the Alumni Associa- tion and executive secretary of Greater Memphis State. ROBERT DEZONIA Although the two groups are separate organizations they have basically similar aims — to further the advancement and progress of the college through unified efforts of friends and alumni. Greater Memphis State differs from the Alumni Association in that its members are drawn from alumni and friends. Its membership is open to all, regardless of previous college affiliation. During the year Greater Memphis State once again gave active support to the sale of football tickets, raising of athletic scholarships, promotion of Shakespearean Festival, and estab- lishment of the Memphis State College Press. Leader of the group was Roy N. Tipton, former president of alumni. Other officers included C. L. McComas, first vice president; Joy Barbour, second vice president; Walter D. Evans, third vice president; Enoch Mitchell, treasurer, and C. Frank Scott, chaplain. T. Robert Acklen, state senator, was president of the alumni group. A vigorous membership drive was launched and interest in alumni affairs stimulated. Assisting Senator Acklen were C. L. McComas, first vice president, and Ford Haynes, second vice president. Highlight of the year ' s activities was the annual Home- coming dinner and dance, which was one of the best-attended alumni affairs in recent years. Dr. Clifton Woolley was elected president of The Tiger Club. These members are out to see that the MSC football team wins its rightful place on the sports map. Membership in the club requires a series of donations which will be used for athletic scholarships. Other officers of The Tiger Club are: Dr. Edwin Eleazer, Dr. H. C. Butts, and Allie J. Prescott, vice presidents; C. L. Bill McComas, secretary; Ed McLeod, business manager; Cecil Humphreys, treasurer. The Alumni Associate set out to reach all former students last year and started The Columns.

The Tigers Score Again in Centenary Tilt At upper left, Xavier tried in vain to halt MSC winning streak. Above, Arnold scores again against visiting Ohio Five. A Great Team . . . A Great Season After a slow start, when the Tigers dropped three of their first four games, the men under Coach Gene Lambert started hitting the basket with regularity and racked up a record-breaking number of victories. Crowds in excess of 3,000 filled Memorial Fieldhouse to cheer the team on to additional scores. More than 3,200 witnessed the Xavier tilt, when the Tigers won an 81-67 victory to avenge an earlier 72-81 setback suffered in Ohio. And three days later more than 3,100 fans came back in the rain to watch the Lambertmen outclass visiting Mississippi State to keep the winning streak moving on and on. Above left: Nebraska dropped in during the Christmas holidays but suffered an 86-79 setback. At lower left, Texas Tech also bit the dust, 75-66.

At rig ht, above, note that graceful curve in the Xavier contest with MSC ready to grab again. Senior Bowl Champions Among the highlights of a successful season was the winning of the Senior Bowl Tournament in Mobile. The Tigers, led by Forest Arnold and Hoover Scott, won both games in the tournament, defeating Spring Hill, powerful Gator Bowl champions, 94-83, and Arkansas Tech 105-102. In the tournament Arnold scored 27 the first night and 24 the second. Other scorers the first game were Caldwell with 18; Davis, 17; Scott, 14 and Fortner, 10. In the second contest Scott joined Arnold for high-scoring honors with 24 points, fol- lowed by Caldwell and Davis with 17 each; Don Winn, 11, and Fortner 10.

Arnold Tops All Scorers for Season Forest Arnold, with 412 point in 21 games, led the basketball team in scoring for the 1954-55 regular season. Arnold was consistently among the top scorers in each game and in addition played a fine game in gaining rebounds and passing to others to score. The scoring record during the regular season is as folows: Games Points Forest Arnold 21 412 Ken Caldwell ___. .......21 334 Millard Davis 21 312 Hoover Scott _ ...21 288 Elmore Fortner 21 189 Don Winn 21 118 Bill McClain 19 91 Games Points Don Jones 14 26 Wayne Wilson 11 24 Jim Ballard 14 18 Bob Swander 10 10 Charles Mayo 3 7 Spud Hays 4 2 Arnold in action . .

When the heat was on the Tigers drew capacity crowds for the home games. Several standing-room-on- ly crowds saw the Tigers near the end of the season. In picture at right, Lam- bert and his men watch the floor action. NCAA Basketball Tournament After years of trying, Memphis State cracked the big time with its basketball team this year. And while the stay up yonder was not too long, the boys at least showed the sports world that with a bit more familiarity with top teams they could more than hold their own. From many reports the Tigers represented the better team on the floor. But the score was different: Penn State 59, Memphis State 55. The boys couldn ' t relax enough and after trailing 33-19 at the half they found the going tough. But the spirit was always there and when that final fatal utterance of the bell came, Coach Lambert ' s charges were within five points of national fame. Everything went wrong but next year is still ahead. And with the same team returning— minus only Millard Davis and Bill McClain — another trip to the National Collegiate Athletic Association tournament should be forthcoming. Throughout the season the Tigers hit for better than 40 per cent of their field goals. What happened in Lexington? Only 23.1 per cent of those precious two-pointers ever made the scoring mark. Davis, at left, and Scott engage in a struggle to latch on to the basketball while Blocker of Penn State appears nearer to possession. One of the tense situations in the game.

Three of the top players from the 1954 team returned, paced by Hillman Robbins who led all amateurs in the Houston Open in the spring. He scored rounds of 71, 67, 73 and 73 for a 72-hole total of 284 over one of the world ' s longest golf courses. Also returning for MSC play were Mason Rudolph and Ronnie Wenzler, who helped the team win 9 out of 12 matches last season. Newcomers seeking team spots were Bill Garner, Ed Crenshaw, Phil and Sam Zerrilla. Robbins was selected for an alternate position of the Walker Golf team this year. tf TO atV £ ■ . fetva MASON RUDOLPH RONNIE WENZLER HILLMAN ROBBINS 1954 RESULTS MSC-17 Memphis Country Club..„10 MSC- ...12 Public Links, Audubon ....18 MSC... 18 Wabash MSC....12 Ole Miss 9 MSC... 12 Colonial 33 MSC... 16 Southwestern 2 MSC.__.25 Mississippi State 2 MSC_18% Ridgeway Country Club....l7V 2 MSC... 15 Ole Miss ,. 6 MSC....14 Mississippi State 13 MSC....liy 2 Athens, Ga 15l 2 MSC...21 Southwestern 136 The Southern Intercollegiate title was won by Robbins, who also scored first in the Ten- nessee Open.

Once more football proved to be one of the major intramural sports as both fraternity and independent squads fought a battle to the finish for the 1954 school championship. The intramural program at Memphis State is conducted on a year-round basis with hundreds of men and women par- ticipating in the various sports offered. It provides spirited competition between the clubs, fraternities, sororities and inde- pendents. Trophy cups are awarded in the major sports to winners in both the men and the women contests, while the top cups are presented following the climax of the entire year ' s program on May Day. In the football program for the fall the Lambda Chi Alpha team won first place, with the Newman Club winning second. The Sigma Phi Epsilon men won their second consecutive victory in the volleyball race. The Sig Eps and Independent men won their respective leagues in basketball, with the Inde- pendents taking the championship. The major spring sport in intramural competition is softball.

The Dormitory Girls came in second. Three teams battled for top position in the basketball con- tests with Alpha Delta Pi, the Dormitory Girls and Alpha Xi Delta nose-and-nose down the finish line. Such activities as badminton, archery, shuffleboard, horse- shoes, tennis and golf are played during the warmer months. The climax to the entire year ' s activities comes at May Day time. Miss Elma Roane, director of the girls ' intramural program, won the women ' s singles in the 1955 city badminton tourna- ment by defeating Marg Kulze 11-1, 11-2. Then she joined Virginia Anderson in defeating Weida Entrikin and Hazel Forrester, both Memphis State students, for the women ' s doubles championship 15-2, 15-11. Miss Roane draws up schedules, directs games and climaxes the entire program with May Day festivities, an event to which every student looks forward. Ping Pong always proves to be a popular sport as Betty Jo Cross and Betty Gatlin demonstrate in a game of doubles. Diane Stigall and Ann Cathey start to the courts for a game of tennis.

De Soto Judge Tony Curtis, one of the top stars at Universal-International Pictures, took time between the premier of his S ix Bridges to Cross and the start of The Purple Mask to judge the DeSoto Beauty Queen, her alternates and mem- bers of her Court. Two pictures of each contestant were submitted to Tony to view — a formal, three-quarter length pose, and an in- formal head shot. On the basis of these pictures the star selected the top nine and then the top three. No rules were given Tony in the selection of his favorites — he was ad- vised only to select his beauties in ac- cordance with whatever plan he wanted to use. He had a problem, as any read- er of this yearbook will quickly see, and he was not able to include all he be- lieved to represent the beautiful girls who attend MSC. However, on the next seven pages we are proud to present the 1955 DeSoto Queen and her Court, as selected by Star Tony Curtis. We are sure they will meet with your approval.

Graduate School The Graduate School has experienced steady growth since it was established at Memphis State in June, 1950, reaching an enrollment in excess of 250 during the second semester this year. Majors are currently being offered in curricu- lum and instruction, educational administration and supervision, English, geography and history. Minors are available in these fields as well as in biology, business administration, chemistry, hu- manites, health and physical education, the sciences and the social sciences. Elective courses are offered in mathematics, philosophy and phy- chology, sociology, speech and journalism. Three concurrent programs are maintained by the Graduate School throughout the academic year: A program for full-time students, an even- ing program and a program for those who can at- tend classes only on Saturdays. In addition, some classes are offered in nearby communities, with members of the MSC staff going to these areas to teach. During the summer two six-week terms of graduate work are offered. All courses in the Graduate School are taught by members of the Graduate Faculty. Members of this faculty hold advanced degrees from outstand- ing universities throughout the nation. Since its establishment, nearly 300 students have been awarded the Master of Arts degree. These students come from many communities in the Mid-South to attend advanced courses. Many are students who completed their work at MSC and desire further study. Many are teachers work- ing at night sessions or on Saturdays to complete their degrees. JOHN E.

VICKERY Memphis B.S., Memphis State School of Arts and Sciences The major objectives of the School of Arts and Sciences, established in 1950, is to provide its students a well- rounded and liberal education. It at- tempts to do this by introducing its students to nearly all of those major fields of human interest which are in- cluded in the humanities, social sciences and natural sciences. Within the School are three divi- sions of learning: humanities, social sciences and natural sciences. The School of Arts and Sciences is the basic unit of the college in the sense that the other schools require some work in this school. It is the earnest belief of the School that the most essential and best possi- ble preparation for any profession or vocation is a thorough foundation in the liberal arts, a belief which is shared more and more by profession and business leaders throughout the nation. , s ,. eABSOS,  « DR.

The convention, which was attended by representatives of the sorority ' s sixty-three chap- ters in the United States and Canada, was one of the most successful ever held by the national sorority. Representing Beta Xi at the convention were Mary Anne Sellars, Janie Quinn and Bette Jo Reding. Beta Xi Chapter held many social events dur- ing the school year. These events included: a weekend outing at Sardis Lake, an All-Student Dance in honor of the pledges, a spring outing, slumber parties, banquets, and informal parties.

The season ' s plans resulted in The Toy- land Party, The Pirate Party, and the traditional Wishing Well Tea. Nancy Kincaid was selected as one of five Supreme Court justices. Gamma Etas were not too busy to take an active part in other campus events. Dixie Busby became Homecom- ing Queen and Dotty Leech was named Football Queen. One of the chapter ' s philanthropic activities was that of giving presents to Linda Faye and Gloria Yoe, the two adopted children from Porter-Leath Orphanage dur- ing Christmas.

Dur- ing rush season 12 girls were pledged following such parties as the Confederate Party. the Rec- ord Party. and our traditional Rose Banquet at the home of Mrs. R. A. Trippeer. These were folowed up in February by a buffet supper given before our candlelight ceremony and a smorgas- bord in honor of the new actives following the ini- tiation ceremony at Grace-St. Luke ' s Church. Many more good times were had at our Horn of Plenty and Valentine parties. In the spring we honored our mothers, and this was followed by our Scholarship Dinner at which the girls ate chicken or beans. April brought two memorable occasions — the celebration of Founders ' Day where the outstanding member was presented the Myrtle Spenser award, and the annual Quill Ball. Dot Rainey and Nancy Jo Rumble attended the installation of the Gamma Eta Chapter at Georgia Tech University. For our philanthropic project the Beta Omegas adopted a little Korean child.

To start the year off, a tea was held September 12. at the home of Nancy Dickey, in honor of our prospec- tive members. Then initiation was held on the 31st of that month, followed by a spa- ghetti dinner at the home of Margaret Douglass. The Stray Greeks ' . enjoyed many so- cials, including a dinner dance honoring the seniors at which time a gift was award- ed the outstanding senior: a progressive dinner: pa jama parties; and other get- togethers. We enjoyed participation in school acti- vities including homecoming, stunt night and intramural events. Euparthenes is composed of members of national Greek social organizations not represented at Memphis State. Among the projects is the assistance of Panhellenic and counseling during rush week activities.

The Interfraternity Council, composed of representa- tives of the eight national social fraternities on the camp- us, planned, organized and put into effect MSC ' s first Greek Week in December. Its primary purpose is to stimulate better understanding between fraternity men so that they might work together for the promotion of a stronger fraternity system. The festivities got under way with forums pertaining to fraternity finances, rushing, pledging, and similar problems such as conducting social activities. A stag ban- quet was held the second night at the Claridge Hotel when Hubert Garrecht, Province Chief of Alpha Tau Omega, was the main speaker. Mr. Garrecht is president of Klinke-Reed Bros. Dairy. His subject concerned the Benefits of Fraternal Life. The day of work, donated by 150 fraternity men, con- sisted of projects in the city and included cleaning up the cemetery on Central, work at the Porter-Leath Orphanage and at the Crippled Children ' s Hospital, the workshop for Lauderdale Courts, minor repairs at Boys ' Town and at the girls ' home on Lamar, and similar worthwhile en- deavors. The three-day program closed with a dance at the Peabody Hotel with Jack Stalcup and his orchestra fur- nishing the music. The feature attraction was the an- nouncement of the IFC Man of th e Year, Tom Rush, who was chairman of Greek Week and is president of Kappa Alpha Fraternity. In addition to Rush, the Interfraternity council plan- ning committee was composed of Larry Hilbun, ban- quet arrangements chairman; Johnny Morris, dance chairman; Gordon Griffith, arrangements chairman for forums and supper; and J. B. Cobb, chairman of Satur- day ' s day of Help.

The organization also seeks to bring a closer harmony between all of the fraternities. Each fraternity is represented on the council by three representa- tives from their group. The organization either sponsors or helps to administer such projects as All-Sing, Stunt-Night and Intramurals. The council sponsored the first Greek-Week held on the MSC Campus this year and presented trophies and plaques to the IFC Man of the Year, and the fraternity with the highest scholarship for the preceding year.

Ohio, on June 28, 1855. At that time it was a member of the famous Miami Triad. which laid the foundation for the fraternity system as we know it today. Epsilon Kappa Chapter was installed on the Memphis State campus on June 5, 1954, when twenty-three members were initiated at ceremonies in the John Willard Brister Library. Before becom- ing national it was known on the campus as Chi Sigma Local. This event was the culmination of three years of constant work on the part of the members and the Sigma Chi Memphis Alumni Chapter.

The local chapter under the distinc- tion of Gamma Gamma presently has 65 actives and 36 pledges. It also is the only fraternity on the campus to own or rent a house. The chapter purchased the house on the corner of Southern and Patterson in September, 1953. This past year the entire chapter mourned the death of Bob Dungan, who would have been a junior this year at Memphis State. In memory of this brother whose life was halted so early by cancer, the chapter backed the MSC Cancer Drive this spring. Gamma Gamma ' s two big socials, the Old South Ball and the Black and White Ball, were again the highlight of the chapter ' s party life. The Old South Party was the fourth revival of this com- memoration of the finest Southern tradi- tions, while the Black and White Ball dates back to 1931.

This bond has carried throughout the years. It is expressed today in the action of the members toward both their frater- nity brothers and the general public. One way in which the men of the fraternity express this bond is in deeds toward others: A Christmas Party for the youngsters at Boys ' Town, adoption of one youngster at Boys ' Town as the fraternity ' s own little brother, participation in the Greek Week work sessions. Pleasure, our annual Harem Ball and the Stardust Ball given in honor of our Sweetheart — Miss Dixie Busby, combined with physical deeds serve to strengthen these bonds. From the tran- sition of the old Star and Crescent Club, to the Epsilon Pi Chapter of Kappa Sigma required just this spirit to be in force. Kappa Sig ' s dates are auctioned! JU X.

The MSC Eps have ex- celled in many ways during the school term. At the beginning of the year we had three trophies; now we have eleven and some on the way. The Sig Eps won the annual Interfraternity Council All-Sing for the second consecutive year. Our fraternity placed second in the Interfraternity football intramurals and for the second straight year won the Volleyball championship. Aside from all our other activities, studies are an important part of every SPE ' s campus life. We were all proud when our president accepted the IFC Scholarship Trophy for the fraternity ' s first place in scholarship on the campus. Socially, the annual ' 49er Party at the Italian Society Country Club was a smashing success.

It has grown into one of the largest national fraterni- ties, with 148 chapters and four colonies. Lambda Chi Alpha colonized at Memphis State in M ay, 1948. Zeta Theta has always worked hard to improve its public relations. In the past year the chapter helped sponsor the proposed Educational Television Station by soliciting dona- tions and member subscriptions. Members worked in the neighborhood of the college campus and the project proved to be a great contribution to the success of the new channel. Lambda Chi also took part in Memphis State ' s first Greek Week by building a play house for children at St. Peter ' s Orphanage. The fraternity at its annual Founders ' Day Ball in March, 1954, chose Miss Jane Patterson, a member of Sigma Kappa sorority, as sweetheart for 1954.

Pi Kappa Alpha was founded in 1868 at the University of Virginia by six men whose idea was to form a brother- hood which would preserve the priceless friendships and joys of college. Delta Zeta Chapter was chartered in December of 1947, leading all other fraternities by being the first na- tional, secret, Greek letter organization on the Memphis State campus. Although a social organization, the men of the Dagger and Key are noted throughout the city for their charit- able and civic acts, this year distributing over thirty Thanksgiving baskets, donating food to the Salvation Army, supplying the Sisters and children of St. Peter ' s Orphanage with ice cream and cookies, annexing a tool shed and supply room to the Neighborhood House, and helping individual parents provide a happy Christmas for their family. Again it takes the lead in offering the Pi Kappa Alpha Scholarship to a graduating high school senior of the Memphis area. The social events of the Pikes, the main one being the Dream Girl Ball, are times that are looked forward to by all. A reception was given in December for the new pledge class at the Pi Kappa Alpha Memorial Head- quarters.

The rush season was climaxed by the pledging of twenty-seven men. The fraternity actively participated in the first Greek Week ever held at Memphis State. Members carried out a portion of the help projects by painting and remodeling part of the Wesley House. One of the social functions sponsored by the fraternity is the annual 49ers party in the spring. Also held annually is the SAE Spring Formal, climaxing the year ' s social calen- dar. At this dance the newly-elected Sweetheart, chosen to serve for the coming year, is announced. This year Martha and Margaret Jernigan, twins from Union City, were chos- en.

We failed to win the trophy, but we feel that if the contest had been on enthusiasm we would have walked away with the highest honors. During Greek Week. Phi Ep painted three rooms at the Episcopal Church Home For Girls. This was a part of the Community Service project sponsored by IFC. It was indeed a blessing to the fraternity to participate in such a philanthropic program. Since last year we have added an asset to the Fraternity room. Through the efforts of the Phi Eps our room is now completely furnished. We look forward to our annual Dream Girl Banquet and dance, our second annual all- fraternity party, and many other social events, as well as the well-rounded fraternity pro- grams during the remainder of the year.

The official pin is a gold triangle with the green letter I mounted upon it. This pin was adopted in 1947. In October, 1954, the club held its annual initiation and reception for new members. This year twelve new members were initiated in a program held in the Banquet Room of the cafeteria. The club also participated in volleyball, basketball, and softball intra- murals. Under the leadership of our captain, Jamie Roberson, we tied for third place in the league. We had two members named to the All-Star vol- leyball team. They were Pat Baskin and Jamie Roberson. The Independents representatives in the DeSoto Beauty contest were Faye Cox and Hettie Anderton. Our Christmas party was a very gala event, and was held in the home of Pamela Gardiner. We all caught some of the yule spirit at this affair. Our two sponsors, Dr. Mary Frances Gyles and Miss Florence Illing were pres- ent at the meeting.
