Jean Bkeioenoacii A radical change has occurred on the hill ; for this year, the former home of the Delta Sigma Psi fraternity, has become a women’s dormitory! However, the Smith boys will not be too dismayed with the sit- uation when they see the splendid record the girls are making. Under the guidance of a very capable president, the Smith girls have led the cam pus in many activities. These very active frosh girls can be found in choir, in the Mask and Wig. on the Days and Crimson staffs, with editorships on the Frosh Days. as co-chaihmen for Ver-Adest. and near the top of the heap in WAA final tabulations. Pi Tati Pi. the newly formed sorority, was organized by seven Smith girls. On Frol- ics night. the Smith girls presented a prize- winning skit. Two outstanding Smith girls were placed on the honor roll. These, and other activities prove the Smith frosh to be all-around girls. Election of officers was not held until January, in order to make the choice of leaders a good one. The four girls were then presented to the student body at a tea in the Student Union lounge on Sunday. January 21 by the president of the Wo- men's Self Governing Association. The Delta Sigs may be proud of the Smith girls, whose loyalty to the great fra- ternity is in great evidence when they sing Stand Her in a Corner and end it with a lusty Delta Sigma Psi. And when the fraternity men return to the campus they can see for themselves the versatility and exuberance of their adopted Smith sisters. 26

However, the small number of men on campus has entered enthusiastically into all activities. Many of them are doubling up, trying to make up for the scarcity in quantity. The men were heard in the new choir and seen in the Mask and Wig plays. They were active members of Crimson and Days staffs, and took part in many of the programs of the Union committee. In the old Ripon spirit they had a busy year socially, too. They were hosts at hay and sleighride parties, a smoker for the faculty, informal house parties, and a quar- terly formal dance. Now situated in venerable West hall, the men spent their first two quarters at Merri- man. One senior. Dean Johnston, graduat- ed in April.
