CELEBRITIES! I

When an organization approaches the 50 year mark and has listed on its roll over 1 0,000 members, it con well boost about its celebrities. Alpha Sigma Alpha to honor its outstanding alumnae by vote of the 1 941 Notional Convention when the Wilma Wilson Sharp Alumna Award was established . This Award, pr!!sented annually starting in 1 942, was to honor on alumna who had distinguished herself professionally in service to her community and to A"'X.A. During seven years, time and circumstance hove revealed the need for some revision of the award rules.

Since 1 942 twelve college chapters hove been added to our A"'X.A Chapter roll. Some of these chapters were formed from rather new locals with young alumnae who hove not yet hod a chance to gain recognition in their chosen field. When it is time for alumna award balloting these chapters often write that, although they hove no candidate from their own chapter, they would like to cost a vote. "Could Notional suggest a worthy candidate?"

In answer to such appeals and because our entire college and alumnae membership should hove a voice in the on riuol selection of award candidates, the Notional Council ha_s voted y~e following revision of the award sec;:tion pertaining to The Method of Making the Selection ."

A. Annual!~ or at longer intervals as deemed expedient, the Not1onol Alumnae Director will issue in December a resume of the outstanding 路candidate previously nominated and selected by vote of the Alumnae Boord of Awards for the Wilma Wilson Sharp Alumna Award .

B. Before February 1Oth, all Notional Councilors and Committee Chairmen, all Alumnae and College Chapters shall be asked to vote on a candidate for the Alumna Award. Any A"'X.A alumna considered worthy of such special recognition may be named as a candidate and may be selected from her own chapter's membership, the A"'X.A membership at Iorge or from the list of previous award candidates submitted by the Notional Alumnae Director.

C. The ballots shall be forwarded to the Alumnae Boord

by April 1st.

D. There shall be a thorough investigation of all candidates with final decision announced by the Boord before the following Founders' Day. Our list of A"'X.A celebrities will be ever growing . We pause to note briefly the achievements of some of our distinguished A"'X.A alumnae who hove been nominated.

L!LLIAN MINOR (Alpha) : Winner of first Delta Kappa Gamma Nat1onal Scholarship for graduate study; First District Governor of Tenth D1stnct of Quota International.

ANN BREWINGTON (Alpha Beta) : Faculty of University of Ch1,cago; Cha~rman of 9th Yearbook for National Business Teachers Federat1on; Assoc1ate Ed1tor of National Business Quarterly.

Confucius soy, "He who is wrapped up in himself makes a very small package." We hove no small pockages or;nong our Alpha Sigma Alphas. They are all busy, on the move, finding ways and means to promote Social Service Activities in their communities and beyond.

There ore groups selling stationery, Christmas cords, and wrappings or magazine subscriptions; others conducting plastic demonstcotions and soles, box supper auctions, penny soles, and benefit bridge parties. Other chapters ore busy planning parties throughout the year for orphanage children, adopting a needy family, making garments at Needlework Guild, making stuffed toys for children, conducting Star)' Hour at a Children's Hospital, making equipment and entertaining children hospitalized with cerebral palsy, distributing books in a V.A. hospital, and entertaining Veterans regularly in a near-by hospital , sending clothes to Poland, helpi_ng to support a foreign student on a campus, contributing to World Student Fund and to Cancer Fund.

The Canton Alums ore initiating a Volunteer Service program in a small, registered, A.M .A. hospital in North Canton, which has no other outside organization backing at this time. Here is opportunity in its prime . By the first of the year they hope to hove a routine program developed which will be wonderfully helpful. We will look for further details in the next issue.

To those chapters, prompt in sending their contributions to the Fellowship and Philanthropic Fund , a hearty Thank You! Without your interest and support our Notional Project cannot flourish or measure up to Alpha Sigma Alpha standards. Those chapters who were submerged with rushing, organization, etc., during the Fall months, will let us hear from them soon , I feel certain .

Region II has presented Indianapolis Veterans Hospital with eight 20 by 24 inch framed landscapes which will decorate the walls of the patients' dining room . These were requested by the Dietitian, who feels that, aside from the added cheeriness of the room, the pictures wi II stimulate thought and conversation among the patients.

The following letter is from Mr. McHaffie, Chief of Special Services : "The patients and staff of this Veterans Administration Hospital ore fortunate indeed to hove such on organization as Alpha Sigma Alpha interested in them. Your latest gift of 8 blown up photographic scenes, framed and ready to hong in the patients' dining room , is not only a gift of beauty but one which will be of interest continually for months to come. Please accept our s incere and grateful thanks."

A~A. NPC AND YOU (Continued from page 1)

campus and their home communities."

A"'X.A's place in NPC will depend upon YOU , our members. Your loyalty will hove to be articulate, your efforts fruitful. Many Alpha Sigmas ore now members of NPC City Ponhellenics . Already in several cities important committee positions in City Ponhellenics ore held by Alpha Sigmas. Whenever it seems desirable college Ponhellenics ore being reorganized in accordance with NPC policies . Several NPC member fraternities hove entered campuses previously served only by associate members.

With the advantages of NPC membership come additional obligations. Competition will be keener. Strong alumnae support, therefore, becomes really essential to our college chapters. Expansion will be more difficult unless YOU, our alumnae, and YOU, our college members, assume your full responsibility. Hove YOU sent our Notional Vice-President any suggestions or information regarding a potential college chapter? Do YOU do effective work in A"'X.A's public relations program? Our entire membership must be aroused to our enlarged opportunities . The place A"'X.A will make and hold in NPC depends upon YOU .

JANUARY, 1950 GREETINGS FROM THE ACTIVES Everywhere at college Is a jacket of red On on Alpha Sig girl ; White hot upon her head .

There's much for us to do, Everyone is busy, We' re having so much fun , Tho we're getting dizzy.

Yes, our college chapters ore having a busy, but happy yea r. It certainly would hove been fun to be present at some of those original rush parties. The Beta Epsilon 's e nticed twenty-two new Alpha Sigs with their traditional Cafe Society Rush Party; this year using " The Wizard 's Cafe" a s its theme . Can 't you just imagine how proud the Pi Pi's were of their dream time rush party. The rushees must hove been surprised by the red nightcaps they received . But these A'J:.A 's aren ' t a sleepy group, they next impressed their rushees with a lovely formal teo, and after bids were out, a supper to celebrate their joining Alpha Sigma Alpha . Goy Poree was the theme the Kappa Kappa's favored . The actives were costumed as sa ilors, maids, artists, and sophisticated Porisienne beauties. Lois Gore, olios Maurice Chevalier, stopped the show. How would you like to ride in a fire engine? Epsi lon Epsilon 's rushees were driven to their Fireman's Boll by the local fire deportment.

Homecoming is always a joyous occasion, but it was especially thrilling for the Epsilon Epsilon's when their president, Janet Treichgroeber, was elected Homecoming Queen. Tau Tau won first prize in the Homecoming Parade with their float which was red and white with o big brown pipe on top. On the sides of the float were these words: Pipe dream come true-Emporia defeated; incidentally Fort Hays won. The Gamma Clio's also hod a clever homecoming house display; they built a hug e coke on the front lawn of their house bearing the in scr iption: Clarkso n into batter, and the Dragons will toke the coke.

A new alumnae chapter organization meeting was held in the Gamma Clio chapter house in November. Mary Gates and Bev Novodo ore working hard to establish a new chapter in Cortland .

The Kappa Kappa's were proud 路to entertain Pete r Lawford at on Alpha Sigma home-cooked luncheo n. Our gals con cook too.

Beta Beta 's were very pro ud to attend the Denver City PonheiJenic Luncheon in November; Pot Beattie accepted the sc holars hip trophy prese nted to the so rority for having the highest scholastic overage on the campus.

W ould you like to attend a "Twin Twirl"? The Alpha Sigma's at Concord College hod a very successful donee using twins as a theme . The y even hod prizes for the most original tw ins.

The girls from Oneo nta ore planning on Alpha Sig week-end-a hoy ride and party Frida y night, a Saturday luncheon ond a 路banquet plus a Sunday open hous e.

Sounds like a full-of-fun three days.

Christmas is one of the happiest times on the calendar, and Beta Iota 's and Beta Eta's shored their joy with those less fortunate by send ing Chri stmas boxes in cluding toys, clothing, and fo od to needy families. The girls from Rodford also presented a radio to one of the words in th e Roanoke Veterans Hospital.

Our college chapters work and ploy, They like the Alpha Sigma way.

We hope these activities they pursue Hove been interesting to you.
