EPSILON-THETA ZETA Founded at Boston University, 1909 Established at Washington College, 1937 LAMBDA CHI ALVHA Fraters in Facultate Dr. Frederick G. Livingood Dr. William R-. Howell In the fall of 1943 six Lambda Chi ' s returned to the Hill. The Lambda Chi Alpha House had been leased to the Alpha Omicron Pi Sorority; conse- quently the first months were devoted to establishing a new chapter room in East Hall. The war made itself felt in many ways, but it did not daunt the spirit of Lambda fellowship. Our annual party was held as usual with great success. Rushing . . . Then pledging resulted in the initiation of William Mc- Daniel, Milton Sheppard, Paul Weaver, and Lewin Wheat. Three brothers were lost to the Armed Services: Robert Rutf, Ex.H.A., to the army; John VanDerveer and Paul Weaver to the navy. A full and active year ended with a banquet at Sophie Fisher ' s Inn. In spite of the few members we have had on the campus, Lambda Chi has remained progressive and looks forward to a strong year to come.

BETA ETA CHAPTER Founded at Norwick University, 1856 Established at Washington College, 1940 THETA CHI Frater in Facultate Arthur Brown Theta Chi has remained active on the campus in spite of seemingly in- surmountable obstacles. In September our membership was limited to three men, but we have met our task with hard work and uniform effort. Moving Day came twice for us. Having leased our house to the Zeta Tau Alpha Sorority, we established a social room in East Hall. Not meeting our needs, these quarters were left for Middle Hall. Here our activities were nurtured and matured. Fifteen men were pledged in February, live of whom were initiated. Although activities have been limited, we had our spring banquet and other chapter affairs. We have striven to maintain the standards of Theta Chi at Washington College and hope to continue to keep alive the fraternity spirit.
