The society has sponsored several memorable events in 1,940 - 1941. First in the years program was the rush tea, given in the home of Elvie Lou Guerra, to which each member invited three guests. The pledge service for eleven prospective members, October fourteenth, was the prelude to the formal service six weeks later. Then the pledges were introduced at the dance for freshmen, October sixteenth. At the luncheon given at the St. Anthony Hotel, December fourteenth, in honor of the newly enrolled members, each of the initiates was pre- sented with a gold chain and pendant bearing the Greek letters of the sorority. Subsequent to this occasion, the newly admitted members were hostesses of the Christmas party in honor of the older members, at the home of Gail Davis. A second group of pledges, received February twenty-eighth, were formally initiated six weeks after installation. With the annual dinner dance at the Gunter Hotel May tenth, the eventful year was brought to a happy conclusion. Officers, 1940-1941, are reported as: Clare Notzon, president; Gertrude Martin, Vice-president; Zelime Lytle, secretary; Mary Katherine Russell, treasurer; and Frann Thulemeyer, sergeant-at-arms.

In the full range of student group activities there is no difference between capability and incapability of performance more painfully manifest to the observer than the disparity between a capable and an incapable college orchestra. Hence the acclaim that lovers of music, the critical and the merely sensible alike, most gratefully render to the I. W. C. Symphony Orchestra. its conductor, Florian E. Lindberg, its members, and its sponsors. The critics commend it highly in their judgment, the tastefully sensible praise its singular excellence. Though it be impossible to record here the several offerings of the orchestra during the year, a few are mentioned as typically memorable. The concert of J anuary 12, With Gertrude Schafer as solo pianist, was met With enthusiastic public response. Not less noteworthy was the playing of the orchestra in the program of the Metropolitan Singers, J anuary 1,9', and at the reception, by faculty and students, March 26, of their Excellencies , the Most Reverend Archbishop Lucey, of San Antonio, and the Most Reverend Archbishop Cicognani, Papal Delegate t0 the United States. In the formal concert Which concluded its brilliant season, 1940-41, the symphony organization presented as solo pianist Mari Katherine Vincius, gradu- ate of the school of music.
