The national organization proposes as its aim the development of character, leadership, and scholarship among first year college students. Since the institution of the local chapter the members singly and unitedly have given capable testimony of the aim of the organization and its continuing achievement. Noteworthy among the events sponsored by Alpha Lambda Delta, 1940-41, were the tea for freshmen in October, the annual spring banquet, and the tea given in compliment to the senior members of the National Honor Society of the city high schools. Of merited record also is the winning 0f the first Alpha Lambda Delta fellowship of five hundred dollars by Miss Louise Houssiere of J ennings, Louisiana, one of the charter members of Incarnate Word College Chapter. In this contest Miss Houssiere competed with women students in colleges and universities throughout the country. Initiates of the Chapter at the beginning of the fall term were Constance J ones. J ane't Roak and Miriam Ruth Beck. The freshmen who distinguished themselves by achieving the scholastic average required for eligibility at the end of the first semester were Ada Koenig and Mary J ane Bowles. The roster of the notably capable officers of the organization, 1940-41, bears the inscription of Patricia Ney, president; Rita Ruth Carlin, Vice-president; Gertrude Schafer, secretary; Shirley Jones, treasurer; and Mary Schulze, senior advisor.
