Carol Kontopp and Bill Hunter, pictured at a Phi Alpha parly, an- nounced their engagement in Jan- uary. Carol was honored this spring when Governor Val Peterson chose her as Midland's most devilish co- ed from among students dining at the Commons, and named her an admiral in the Nobraska Navy. Phi Alphas contributed this clover float to Midland's Homocoming Pa- rade—a “barbor shop, in which the Warriors were trimming their foot- ball foe, Wesleyan Plainsmen.

Phi Omega First affair of the year for members of the Phi Omega sorority was the annual rush tea which was again held at Western Theo- logical Seminary, ft centerpiece of yellow and white flowers, and candles and silver on polished mahogany, provided the table setting for this event. Guests were also con- ducted on a tour of the seminary. Fourteen painted girls with most bizarre costumes conga'd uptown in October as a part of their informal initiation ceremonies. The hungry girls returned to the Student Union for supper served by the old mem- bers. Formals were next donned by old and new members alike in November as the sorority met at the Pathfinder Hotel for their formal dinner and initiation rites, fit this time Shirley Liudahl passed the candy an- nouncing her engagement to Wes LaMun- von. Midland graduate of 1947. A dance featuring colorful fall flowers was held with the Pi Eps in the Gymnasium later in the evening. Phi Omegas spent a December evening in the Student Union entertaining their guests at an informal party. Cards, ping pong and dancing were among the sources of entertainment. One new member was added to the sorority roster in February. Also during this month, the traditional come-as-you-are party v as held in the Student Union at which members blossomed out in pajamas, shorts and pincurls. In April the Fremont Y.M.C.A. was the scene of an informal sorority party. Later in the month, a sorority shower was held in Beegle Hall to honor the former Frances Giffin whose marriage to Howard Mickel took place on Easter Sunday. Spring colors of yellow and green decorated the serving trays. Pride of the Phi Omegas was their new official garb of white sweaters with small yellow chenille Greek emblems. Assisting Darlene Feye, president this year, were Cathy Sudman, vice-president; Dorothy Mitchell, secretary; and Aletha Pflueger, treasurer. Mrs. Martha J. Peters again served as sponsor of the sorority. Pago 81 Front row (loft to right): Baird. Hunteman, Grunwald. Mikkelsen, Banghart, ft. Pflueger, Feyo. Mitchell. Jep.son, Berlin.
