DElTA CHI DELTA During the past two years, Delta Chi Delta, local social fraternity, has been hard at work establishing a tradition of sponsoring the social event of the school year. In the spring of 1948, it was Blue Barron's orchestra which, under the sponsorship of Delta Chi Delta, packed a huge crowd of dancers into the Armory, This year's name band was Art Kassel and his Kassels in the Air, who came to Quincy on April 30 and attracted another crowd to the Armory. Delta Chi Delta pledges have, as usual, been supplying free cigarettes and per- forming other little favors for the numerous activities. In the past two years, Delta Chi Delta has built up a large membership and an active organization. Don Huverfine, Dave Gudermuth, planning spring formal 96

Active leadership in intramural sports is only one of the many activities that have made Eta Chapter of Alpha Delta Gamma, national Catholic fraternity, one of the best known organizations on the campus in the two short years since the local group was organized. Several dances in the past year have borne the name of this up-and-coming fraternity, and they all culminate in the Mart Heinen Memorial Dance, which was held on May 29. Last year Alpha Delta Gamma began the annual awarding of a Mart Heinen Memorial Trophy to the outstanding athlete-scholar of the year. The person honored was Richard C. Heitholt. The award was made again this year. In recognition of Eta Chapter's growing activity, the national Alpha Delta Gamma organization presented the chapter a trophy for being the most active branch. This trophy, which was voted to the Eta Chapter at the last national convention in New Orleans, was formally presented at the Mart Heinen Memo- rial Dance.
