HE I-Iallovve,en carnival was again entrusted to the club. Arnold Baker and his 'assistants were untiring in their tasks of decorating the gym and managing the booths. The attendance exceeded that of last year, and it is to our patronizing friends that we owe the financial and social success of. the occasion. ' The outstanding social event of the year was the College Informal. Under the guidance of the committee in charge, Michael Contris, Ralph Armstrong, and Arnold Baker, chairman, the most successful Informal in the history of the Sigma Mu Kappa was presented. The beautifully decorated Olympia Eagles Hall was filled to its capacity and our guests all left saying a good word for St. Martin's and the Sigma Mu. Kap-pa. It was a financial success as Well as a moral victory for the club. The culmination of the activities of the season is the annual Sigma Mu Kappa banquet. As was the case in preceding years the banquet will probably be held in the Hotel Olympian in Olympia. ' In completing the fourth successful year of the Sigma Mu Kappa we feel that We have do-ne our bit for the college, and for the furtherance of the social and intellectual element in the life of the college student.
