igma enpl. Mu Xi Chapter at the University of British Columbia was formed in the fall of 1948 and functioned as :1 colony of its international parent body, Sigma Alpha Mu. In Nov- ember, 1949, its members were of- ficially initiated, and Mu Xi was duly established as the 48th chapter of the fraternity. Two months later, the dream of all local 'kSammies came true when they acquired a fraternity house and 4233 West 9th Avenue became of- ficial chapter headquarters. Early in the school term, a Mothers' Club was formed and an Alumni Club is now in the process of formation. Both of these organ- izations have given much support and co-operation to the local chapter. Main social activities of thc fall term were a highly successful 1-lallowe'cn Party for the pledges: the regular Anniversary Banquet on Foundefs Day, November 10th, and the climax- ing party of the term, the Sammy New Year's Party. Also enjoyed by local SammiesH were the numerous Saturday night get-togethers at the house. -S Faces beam as food was served to members.

Though a relatively young frat- ernity and consequently small as far as numbers of chapters are concerned. it is Well organized and activities of the chapters are well supervised by national officers and faculty and alumni advisers. Theta Chapter of Sigma Phi Delta was installed at UBC in l932 and ever since the Focus have taken an active part in campus life and ac- tivities. MJ js Q A 'ft f iff ,, ,,f, ,. H I? l2,, :?2,V, Z . .4 . Brothers of Sigma Phi Delta got together at the spring formal late last spring. The social program is somewhat restricted, however, to meet the needs of the members who must be enrolled in one of the Engineering or Architec- ture schools to be eligible for admit, tance to the Fraternity. The annual lndian Party at the Stanley Parlt Sports Pavilion high- lighted the Fall season for actives and alumni alilte. A rendition of l Am An Indian Too-A Sigma Foo by recent pledges Anderton, Hogan. Diespeclter. and Renshaxv stole the show. Activities in the Spring included the Sweater Party, Formal, and the big rushing party at Ming's staged by the alumni. Details of Theta Chapter's par- ticipation in the general convention of the Fraternity scheduled for Van- couver in early September are being handled by Alvin Nemetz for the actives and George Campbell for the alumni. The three day gathering should prove a memorable experience for the American delegates and a milestone in Chapter history. 13 AW wyg-v V' if' Heading from top, left to right: Albert F..
