Kappa Gamma found itself this year under the very capable leadership of a new advisor. Miss Mabel Nemoto. Miss Nemoto was new to the school as well as to the society. Balleyhoo of the Big Top heralded Kappa Gamma's informal rushing party at Ruth Winkel's home. Members and rushees, in keeping with a circus theme, came dressed as typical sawdust-ring characters. Making a change from the ridiculous to the serious, twelve girls were pledged at a formal rushing dinner at the Raulf Hotel. Out for recognition in the Homecoming float contest. Kappa Gamma girls decided on a slogan and theme, and busily went to work executing their plans. Determination paid off and with We'll Penn 'Em as a slogan Kappa Gamma won third place. An alumni dinner was held at the Town Grill to welcome former members bock to the campus. Kappa Gamma's candidate for Homecoming queen was Audrey Johnson. Originally the society was founded to further an interest in drama among students, and so, every year, it sponsors the Kappa Gamma play contest. This year the contest was held on November 14, 15, and 16. Veola Ferrel and Mary Kasai were the mistresses of ceremony and managed to guide the event over smooth and rough spots alike. Naturally Kappa Gamma did not enter the competition, but while the judges were making their decisions, members presented a one-act play entitled Entre Nous . Kappa Gamma was a pioneer in the winter social season and on December 2 it sponsored the first formal dance of the year a Winter Frolic . Herbie Brietzman and his orchestra furnished music for the dance which was held at the Twentieth Century Club. The society got into the spirit of Christmas by again preparing a basket of food for a needy family in the vicinity. Second semester rushing was the excuse for another get-together and an informal come as-you-are party was held in the women's lounge. At a later party in the same place four girls were pledged to Kappa Gamma. Co-operation immediately began on the Iota songfest entry, Wooden Shoes , under the direction of Ruth Winkel. Sports participation was one of Kappa Gamma's strongest activities. Both the undefeated and untied volleyball and basketball teams won their second successive championship under captains Maggie Redman and Anita Wislinsky respectively. A mother-daughter luncheon held on Mother's Day at the Town Grill and a cottage weekend in June completed a most successful yeor. Clod in prison stripes. Kopa Gommo girls represent the Penned Quokcrs. Wooden shoes ond little white caps created the atmosphere for Koppa Gamma's entry in the Songfest. Page 20
