All three seasons of the year were eventful ones for Delta Phi. Fall brought informal rushing and the annual scavenger hunt, participated in by both members and pledges. Base of operations was Marlene Titzkowski's home. Next came formal rushing, a smorgasbord dinner in the Fountain Room of the Raulf. On this occasion each of the pledges received a yellow rose, the Delta Phi flower. Miss Helen Colby played hostess to the group at the formal pledging party held October 30. Both members and pledges worked industriously on the Delta Phi Homecoming float. A huge head with a gaping mouth dominated the float while a dentist prepared to pull out the one prominent tooth. Let's Yank Out a Victory was the accompanying slogan. Preceding the game, a tea, honoring all alumni, was held. The annual Sadie Hawkins Day dance, given added publicity by a radio broadcast put on by the College Radio Group, again demonstrated that the gals can really get those fellers when Delta Phi-lota give them an occasion. The society's entry in the play contest was The Spider directed by Naomi Staerkel. In the volleyball tournament. Delta Phi was well represented. Ginny Wagener, one of the society's nominees for the All Star Volleyball team, captained the Delta Phi squad. The society also participated in another winter sports event, the annual WRA sponsored basketball tournament. Captain of the team was Marilyn Belling. Pledges proved their worth during the Christmas season by putting on a party for members and guests including Dean Leyson, Mrs. Thedinga, and Miss Colby. The women's lounge was the scene of the event, refreshments, games and carol singing the main occupations of the evening. Contributions of food, toys, and clothes were collected for the basket drive during the Yule season. A third in the annual Songfest was given Delta Phi for its presentation of The Prayer from Humperdinck's Hansel and Gretel . Barbara Berndt directed the entry. Vod-Vil plans, the annual spring picnic, and the spring formal with lota occupied the group during the month of May. A cottage party at the Chain-o-Lakes promised to continue Delta Phi activities into the vacation period. First semester president Ruth Hoslcy nicely bolonccs her cup while chatting with Louise Coumbe. Adeline Meyers, Morlene Titzkowski, Shirley Weber, Bev Steffen, Barbara Gut brand and Miss Colby also joined the conversation. The Prayer from Hansel and Gretel wos Delta Phi's third place winning Songfest entry. Page 14
