A(ielfilUa Delevoryas, Stowe, Mann Kirshen, Smith, Richards, Parker Adelphia, local honor society for senior men, was founded in 1916. Its function is to promote good fellowship and foster the highest ideals of Massachusetts State by an active support of campus activities. They sponsor rallies and special drives and cooperate with Isogon and the Senate on campus projects. Seven juniors are tapped as active mem- bers at a spring convocation, and eight honorary members are elected in the spring of their senior year. Selection of members is based on popularity, extra- curriculum activities, and character. Be- sides the undergraduate members, one alumnus and one faculty member may be elected each year. The society has at present a total membership of 369. When, in 1943, all seven active mem- bers entered the Armed Forces, Mr. George E. Emery, Prof. Curry S. Hicks, and Dr. Vernon P. Helming were en- trusted with the affairs of the society. The small number of men students on campus during the war made it advisable to suspend the function of Adelphia temporarily. Wlien Don Parker, ' 44 member of Adelphia, returned last fall, however, he and the above-named mem- bers of the faculty formed a committee of four, who reinstated Adelphia as an active organization, by electing the fol- lowing members of the senior class to honorary membership: Roger Richards, vice-president; Don Smith, secretary; Jack Blalock, John Delevoryas, Jason Kirshen, Chet Mann, and Bill Stowe. Don Parker became president when the organization resumed activity. During the year, Adelphia supported several movements. It conducted a March-of-Dimes drive at a basketball game in January; and it cooperated with Isogon on such plans as the temporary post office to be constructed in Mem Hall, and the organization of Pepsters, a large group representative of the stvident body to act as a nucleus of support to the cheer leaders at games. 24
