Gladys Kephart The Gamma Gamma Sigma, composed of Junior College girls, grew out of a girls' league. In 1933 the present organization was formed by thirteen girls under the lead- ership of Miss Julia Gross. The membership is now twenty. During the past year meetings have been held once a month at the homes of dif- ferent members. In September a tea was given at the Y. W. C. A. to which freshman girls were invited. An initiation of new members at Camp Collins in October and their installation at the home of Mary Ormancly followed. At Christmas the girls supplied a basket to a poor family. . The sorority has sponsored many successful social activities this spring. March 30 a formal party at the Rose City Country Club proved to be a very interesting- affair. Then another trip to Camp Collins in April, participated in by eight of the members, had lovely weather 'in store for the party. The summer activities which include a trip to Miss Gross' cabin at Cannon Beach and several invitations to members' homes are looked forward to by all of the girls. . The eight new members are Leona Wilson, Dorothy Morgan, Helen Wwds, Betty Stone, Edith Ringstad, Helene Trulsen, Marian Sievers, Helen Sievers. O P-AGE 17

Later, the Delta Kappa Pi and the Alpha Rho Omega held their annual get-together in the form of a banquet in the Y. M. C. A. recreation hall. A successful skating party was held in October at the Oaks Skating Rink, and on December 14, the annual semi-formal dance was held at Riverside Country Club. The fall semester ended with the initiation of Bob Kalkwarf and Don Charleson at Camp Collins. During the spring semester, a party was held at Lloyd's residence, honoring Miss Hazel Lloyd and Mr. Harold McShatco whose marriage was an event of May. The fra- ternity ended its activities for the school year with its final party held aboard Don Charleson's launch at Sauvies' Island. Don Meyer and John Carter were the initiated guests of the trip.

Jim Kirwan Alpha Rho Omega was originated in 1925 by a group of engineering students to encourage good fellowship and to promote social activity in the school. During the past year the fraternity has enjoyed various social functions including an inter-fraternity banquet with Delta Kappa Pi, a sport dance at Peninsula Golf Club, and an anniversary banquet at Kelly's Restaurant. The fraternity recently selected a book to present to the school library. Eight new men were received into Alpha Rho Omega during the yearg William Eggison, jim Kirwan, Bryan Hough, Joe Lebo, Roy Martin, Edwin Sheriff, Edgar Olsen, Lauren Fisher. Mr. Bliss, instructor in the engineering school ,was unanimously elected advisor of the fraternity and has been of great assistance in the functions of the group. The alumni of Alpha Rho Omega organized an Alumni Chapter, electing Dick Gordon as president. The function of this group is to keep in contact with all mem- bers of the fraternity not in school and to support the activities of the active members. Borden, Martin, Mussen, Himmel, Kirwan,
