OFFICERS FRED LASHNITS Zeus JACK WILSON President LLOYD BELL Vivc-Prcsidcnt MATTHEW KURTZ Sevretary DAVE SMITH Treasurer One Hundred Six jAefa gladign Since 1899 the God? have figured prominently in Up- sala affairs. The oldest Greek letter society on the campus, Theta Epsilon is an absolutely and thoroughly Upsalan or- ganization and has contributed much to Viking tradition. The songs of the ,Lympians have long been a part of the fraters, life, and the ladies of Kenbrook Hall have often crowded balconies and windowsills to hear their serenade. To the men of Theta Epsilon, membership in the brother- hood means the closest possible relationship with the Upsala family. Long and loud Will the concluding measures of the Pledge Songt, continue to extoll the virtues of the Gods-- Here,s a toast to all our strivings, Here,s our song of endless praise, T0 the health of Theta Epsilon And our happy College days?

dogs appeared in pajama coats, straw hats, short pants, and odd shoes and socks. As for the more pulchritudinous pledgees, the Tau,s were seen carrying their canes and if there was any long underwear in evidence, it Was sure to be a Theta. They also roller- skated and wore lampshade chapeaus. If you saw a car being Cleaned, there was sure to be 3 Chi behind the dustcloth; incidentally, they swing a mean scooter, too. The Alphies were attractive no end in their sunbonnets, and elephant ears with the accompanying onion necklace. Some aspiring housewives revealed their true ambitions; namely, the Lambies, who coddled eggs in a frying-pan and managed to get their clothes on inside out. But pledging doesn,t last forever; eventu- ally all good pledgees become full-fledged members, following the ritualistic formal initiations. Regardless of all that sorors and fraters say, they wouldn,t have missed dog- gingll for anything. The Interfraternity Council is a repre- sentative body which determines fraternity policy as to pledging arrangements, fra- ternity ball teams, reception dates, and the like. It is composed of all the presidents and one other delegate from each Greek letter society; twelve members in all. These worthy Councilors are diplomatists par excellence; INTER-SORORITY COUNCIL- sisters under the skinil this year they were headed by the super tactician, Buckyil Walters, who did a good job as president. Make no mistake, these splendid brothers do more than just discuss; with the help of their sister-organization, the Inter-Sorority Council, they opened the fall season with a fine reception held at the Knoll Country Club on October 12th. This helped to orientate the Freshmen, who ap- peared practically en masse, in our Upsala social program. If the Inter-Fraternity Councilors may be called tactful, how much more can be said for their feminine counterpart, the Inter- Sorority Council! Never let it be said that subtle innuendo is a thing of the past, or that this is an age of frankness and truth- telling. Its not that these girls don,t say what they mean; its just that they donit mean what they say. That,s why they,re never quite certain as to just what the rush- ing rules are; but they,re so charmingly un- certain, that itls most disconcerting. Be that as it may, whatever rushing regulations do exist may be attributed to them and to the integrity of the individual sororities. The annual welcoming tea for the Freshman girls was held this fall at the Marlborough Innin Montclair. The Freshmen seemed to enjoy the whole affair, from the receiving line to the social photographer.

g; r a 193, P; ibefta P4: With the realization that the purely academic college life is not entirely satisfying and worthwhile without the joy, the brotherly spirit, and the unselfish devotion of true friends, the Club Stix, Which took its name from the Latin for Owls, was founded in Brooklyn in 1911. That name was subsequently changed to the Improved Order of the Exalted Ulalae, but in spite of all these titles the one of Owlsh, has held throughout. Today upon our campus the members of Pi Delta Phi are trying to uphold the glory and tradition that are theirs; molding themselves for the welfare of greater Upsala and a stronger Pi Delta Phi.
