Cha perones ALPHA Although Pi Alpha has been officially reorganized on campus only since the spring of 1949, the members have lost no time in getting into the full swing of school and social activities. Beginning with an initiation dinner and dance, the sorority soon plan- ned such activities as a weekly noon dance in the college ballroom, several bake sales, participation in two S. R. A. Carnivals, and a Christ- mas party at the lodge for the Oswego Children's Home. In the tall of l949, Pi Alpha merged with another sorority, Entre-Nous, to form one large, unified organization. ln February of this year, Pi Alpha pledged members and held a suc- cessful initiation formal and dinner at the Rainbow Roof. Our sorority is fortunate in having two such charming and helpful advisors as Miss Pastore and Miss Buckley. We are also grateful to Mrs. Lena Furnari, our sorority mother, in whose home we hold our meetings. l ln looking back on its short but eventful history, Pi Alpha gives its heartfelt thanks to all those who helped the sorority to become a well- known and active organization. The girls of Pi Alpha also feel that whatever effort was expended in getting started, the experience of working together was enioyable and unforgetable. Flrll Rowx Miss Pextore, L.

Skating party Fireside chats This year Theta Phi Chapter celebrated its first birthday since its reorganization in February, 1949. Claire Rosen is president of the sorority. Our colors are purple and gold. September began, and we looked forward to a successful year. Our skit in the trash variety show had Reverie as a title. Rachael Bolt was the songstress, and Honey Kaye the creative dancer. Our next step was work week. No iab was too small for the sisters of Theta Phi, and everyone co-operated by asking for our services. From work week we had a social gathering at the lodge which sisters and guests attended. Flrnt Row: M. Williams, C. Roxen, R. Bolt, L. Ollvteri, Second Row: For the S. R. A. variety show, we entertained with excerpts from the M4 Manoa M. K,,.,,blu,h. Z. Kmhanr' A- sformt L Cheoinoff H.M.S. Pinafare. The theme of our pledging was Tepee. We pledged - thirteen girls and they all enioyed it! The only event that marred Theta Phi's gala year was saying good-bye to our advisor, Dr. Holt. To her we say, Good Luck and God Bless You. TTHETA PHI I47
