a4i Social Activities of Delta Psi Kappa Ist Half 'Bully-Off Sept. 31 Time-Out Ort. 23 Time-Out Nov. 27 Zud Half Rush F eb. .Z 9 Colors Feb. 23 'Time-Out Mar. 8 Roll-In A pr. 20 'Free Hit May 14 P Je Seventy-two Ground-Sticks finds Delta Psi Kappa's veteran team with only nine members in its offensive struggle for the goals of scholastic success. Because of this handicap in numbers, our team soon felt the need of reinforcements and sustenance. So at Sheffield Inn on Oct. 23, we placed two new players on the line-up, Shirley Peterson and Dorothea Hewitson, and received inspiration for the continued struggle through the celebration of the 15th anni- versary of Delta Psi Kappa with our annual Founders' Day Banquet. Again our team needed pause. This time for First Aid ad- ministration to certain casualties received in the line of offense. This aid was brought to us through the fellowship with our alumnae, who joined us for the Homecoming Dinner at the Athenaeum. Among the most helpful of these ministrations was that brought by two Grand Council members, Alice Morrow Wild and Margery XfVood Stocker. The expert judgment of our Province Chairman, Bobbie Larson pronounced us ready to continue in the fray. During this last portion of the half, we were heartened by news of another eleven which had been organized with the installation of Psi Chapter at Ithaca College. The half ended with the goals of examinations safely passed. The second half started with a Rush , Our Luncheon at Spink Arms Hotel and Formal Dinner Dance at Meridian Hills Country Club brought to us a splendid line-up of second string players. These players were given the blue and gold ribbons, colors of the team, with usual ceremony at a Chili party at the Dormi- tory. Accidents and injuries in the line of combat with the acl-- versary necessitated our calling another time-out , when we pledged the new promising team-mates and assigned to each a big sister coach from our regular line-up. This happened at a Butterfly Party at the home of Dorothy Rath. On April 20th, we paused for a Roll-ln extra-curricular event in the form of a Benefit Card Party. In the course of play, two bench warmers were entered in the game on a Free Hit , when Irma Klafs and Lucile Jost were formerly initiated at the Spring Dance. Thus the second half ended victoriously with the blue and gold flying high over triumphant heads, although the struggle during the last quarters was against terrific odds due to the ab- sence of our beloved coach and advisor-Mrs. C. L. Hester.
