O, I-4-sig t ,. Y gs,-is 6L Delta Sigma Pi, a professional commerce fraternity, founded at New York University School of Business in 1907, provides all of the advantages of fraternal affiliation, yet offers the unusual benefits of a membership comprised exclusively of men who have chosen the same profession as their life work. The Delta Sigs boast of 46 active chapters and twenty-five alumni chapters throughout the United States and Canada with a com- plement of l3,5OO business men. They have been active on the Northwestern campus for twenty-one years. On the organization's rolls are such noted men as John Hancock, who is a member of the board of directors of sixteen of the largest companies in the United States, Glenn L. Martin, famous airplane designer, Henry F. Grady, Assistant Secretary of State, John Cash- more, fighting mayor of Brooklyn, Walter D. Fuller, president of the Curtiss Publishing Company, Frank Phillips, president of Phillips Petroleum Company, and numerous others. The School of Commerce at Northwestern is reputed to be one of the highest ranking schools of its kind in the United States. Rec- ognizing this, Delta Sig members are ever striving to maintain the traditional high scholastic average for which the fraternity has long been noted. Beta Gamma Sigma, honorary commerce fraternity, is well repre- sented on the rolls of Delta Sigma Pi here at Northwestern. Delta Sigma Pi presents each year the Delta Sigma Pi scholarship key which is awarded to the highest ranking student in the graduating class of the School of Commerce. Social activities also form an essential and enioyable part of the college life of a Delta Sig. The highlights of the social program are the two formal fraternity dinner dances held each year. These affairs are supplemented by radio parties, dinners, banquets, and smokers. Fourth Rowhleach, Belding, Wallman, Poynter, Lindgren, M. Smith Third Row-Wagner, Luchow, Sellinger, Block, L.

:Qi ATA wif QM ZMQZM Fraternity men dash in wild stripes and polka dots to a distant goal . . . At the end a panting victor receives his well-deserved due from a campus co-ed chosen queen for the occasion. Thus goes the annual Delt Paiama Race. However, members of Delta Tau Delta know well that college life is made of sterner stuff than frivolity straight, and they respond to intellectual pursuits accordingly. This year: Gordon Frisbie was ever ready with his well-sharpened pencil to fulfill his duties as Daily desk editor, while Bob Postell and Wally Roetter frequented the Syllabus office. Meanwhile William Otto and Bill Armstrong lent their talents to the Purple Parrot next door. Brawn-and-brain combinations are said to be rare, but they are found among the Delts. Dick Richards, football captain, possessed keys to Lynx and Deru while Dick Trubey, wrestling captain, owned memberships in Purple Key and Deru. To further the list of remark- able captains, George McKinnon: baseball, and Price Brown, of the rifle team. Managers of merit were wrestling head Jim Badger and senior football head Bob Warnock. Lettermen were footballer Paul Kiefer and swimmers Emmit Mc- innis and Russ Cobb. The latter is also a politician in his own right, being a Purple Key-er and a Junior Class commissioner. However, the politician-extraordinary and pleni-potentiary of the Delts was Thad Snell. Skillfully he practised his diplomatic arts on the Senior Class commission and Campus Charities committee, aided and abetted by keys to Lynx and Deru. A successful year? A Delt would say definitely, Fifth Row-Murray, Power, Zahringer, Bopp, Branston, Habicht, Gridley, Fleisch- mann, Micklish, Freeman, Crowe Fourth Row-Gleason, Gollan, Cobb, Perkins, J.
