SIGMA PHI TMI The year 1949-50 was a milestone in Sigma Phi Tau's history. During this year We saw the general transition from the Sigma Phi Tau of post-war days when veteran en- rollment was at its peak, to the present state which has approached the standing of the fraternity of pre-war days. The men who came back to school this year not only saw a new P.T.I., but also came back to a newly acquired fraternity house at 231 W. Tulpehocken St. A great deal of effort and time by members of the fraternity has reshaped our new living quarters consider- ably, and with the coming years we hope to improve still more. Many problems faced us concerning the house, but a direct attack on each of these has placed us in a position where we are happy to say that Sigma Phi Tau is functioning harmoniously. Many social functions sponsored by Sig- ma Phi Tau characterized the spirit of inject- ing a bit of gaiety into our everyday chores of long hours at school and study. The num- erous faculty and student invitations to these functions are the ways in which we have expressed our interpretation of liberal frater- nalism, for true fraternalism is not only con- fined to brothers of a fraternity, but in a broad sense, to all of our fellow students.

A fraternity is a body of men associated for their common interest, business, or pleas- ure, it is a brotherhood. The Delta Kappa Phi Fraternity is an association dedicated to the aforesaid purpose. The Fraternity is cele- brating its Golden Anniversary this year. The Alpha Chapter, founded in 1899 in Philadel- phia, is the oldest textile fraternity in the country. Since that time it has been moving forward steadily in dignity as well as in numbers, with chapters at Lowell Textile School, New Bedford Textile School, and North Carolina State. From the time of its founding Delta Kap- pa Phi has stood for quality in securing new members. The Alpha Chapter now has an active membership of one-hundred-two men, the largest of its fifty year past. With the expanding facilities of the new Philadelphia Textile Institute, it plans to grow proportion- ately. By spacing social activities through- out the year to lighten the academic load of the burden, by pledging men who will uphold the ideals of the fraternity and further its course, and by sending a select group of well-equipped men into the textile industry as our representatives, the Fraternity will maintain its past leadership and realize great future possibilities.

These few women comprise the present membership of the Kappa Sigma Phi Soror- ity, which was originally founded in 1943 at the Philadelphia Textile Institute, and it was reorganized last year in order to be fully prepared to go national, Since then the Constitution and the By-laws of the soror- ity have been revamped, and a pin was designed as well as a coat-of-arms and a membership card. The main objective of the group is to interest other women in textile education and in the opportunities of a job in the textile industry. We are convinced of the impor- tance of women in the field and are aware of the contributions we can make. KAPPA SIGMA PHI Our social life last year was limited, but nevertheless successful. A shower was held for one of the sorority sisters and a pic- nic in May for all the student body, with the fraternities and faculty participating. Now that we have a beautiful new building and a very lovely campus, we will endeavor to bring more social life into the school. OFFICERS President . . . ......
