"The Anchor" a Ouarterly 路ON BECOMING a national sorority in 1925 it was necessary for Alpha Sigma Tau, as a member of the Association of Education Sororities, to publish a semi-annual magazine. This policy was followed for eleven years and last year a tri-annual program was adopted. ~)

<v

Now we have undertaken to publish a quarterly- as do the maL

~

jority of national sororities.

The present idea is that the October issue of THE A cr-roR should contain the annual reports of the sorority and be a medium of administrative announcements rather than an exchange of chapter news or a record of sorority achievement.

Because of the nature of th e contents of tlzis A CHOR, it is ext1路emely important tlzat all copies be carefully guarded and none displayed or given to non-sorority 1nembers.

As a quarterly THE ANCHOR will henceforth be entitled to second-class postal privileges and it is estimated that the savings in postage during the year will in a great part pay for our added issue. Perhaps by 1939 the convention will find it possible to make a larger appropriation for the magazine and , if so, the October numbers will in the future be better able to take their places along side of other ANCHORS. THE EDITOR

THE ANCHOR OF ALPHA SIGMA TAU The Annual Report of Alpha Sigma Tau Greetings to the members of tlze Alph a Sigma T au Sorority:

T THE sixth national convention held in Pittsburgh last year it was voted to establish a central office of Alpha Sigma Tau. The national president who is in charge of this office herewith submits the first annual report of the central office and a consolidated report of all the sorority 's activities for the school year 1936-1937.

La t year the president asked each national officer and committee chairman, each collegiate and alumn<e chapter president, and each alumn<e representative to write to the central office on the fifteenth of each month. A letter was sent from the central office to each of the above mentioned officers on the first of each month. Six letters and two reports were requested from the collegiate chapters. Assuming that 100 is a perfect score and deducting five for a late letter or report and ten for one that was missing, the chapters sco re as follow s : Twenty is the lowest possible score.

From the alumnre chapters one repo rt and six letters were requested.

The chapters that were organized for the whole year have the following score . Thirty is the lowest possible core.

It is with some reluctance that the above fi gures are printed because some of the letters were often late or not sent on account of misunderstanding or illness. However since the letter sent from the central office last October stated that an efficiency report would be prepared, it seems only fair to those chapters that did especially try to be punctual to publish the scores.

THE ANCHOR

Eight mimeographed form letters, a total of fifty-two pages, were sent from the central office to faculty advisers, chapter presidents, alumnre representatives, and national board members. This made a mailing list of seventy-seven persons.

Twelve hectographed letters, a total of thirty-four pages were sent to the fifteen national board members.

Four hectographed letters, a total of twelve pages were ent to the eighteen alumnre representatives.

Besides these 868 form letters, 420 personal letter , the fall news letter to inactive chapters, and all supplies were sent from the central office.

The central office was also responsible for publishing the constitutions and a booklet containing facts about Alpha Sigma Tau to be sent to colleges in which new collegiate chapters are de ired.

The Association of Education Sororities is composed of Sigma Sigma Sigma, Alpha Sigma Alpha, Pi Kappa Sigma, Delta Sigma Epsilon, Theta Sigma Upsilon, Alpha Sigma Tau, and Pi Delta Theta. The Council of the Association is compo eel of one representative from each so rority. The offices of the Council rotate, the changes taking place every time a regular meeting of the Association i held. For the past two years Miss Edith Mansell, A.E.S. representative for Alpha Sigma Tau, has been chairman of the Council. Mi s Mansell has submitted the following report: "Since the last convention, August, 1936, your A.E.S. representative has ent five general letters to the A.E.S. Council (including the president of Alpha Sigma Tau in the mailing ) ; one letter to all local P.H. 's; twenty-six letters to members of the A.E.S. Council on matters of routine bu ine s, and thirty-two to the president of Alpha Sigma Tau or other officer .

"According to the usual procedure the Council meeting of the A.E.S. should be held this summer. However the National Panhellenic Congress has invited the A.E.S. to hold its biennial meeting at the same time and place as that of the N.P.C. in order to discuss in some joint meetings the problems we have in common. The meeting will be held in New York City, October 14-16. " The A.E.S . Council voted recently to revi se the booklet Social Precedents and Sorority Ethics and require future candidates for initiation to pass an examination on the content . " The following A.E.S. sororities installed new chapters: igma Sigma Sigma at Hattiesburg, f ississippi ; Alpha Sigma Alpha at Tahlequah, Oklahoma ; Theta Sigma Upsilon路 received a petition from Harris Teachers College, St. Louis, Missouri; lpha Sigma Alpha dropped their Iota Iota chapter at Drake niversity, Des Moines, Iowa. ' At the Pitt burgh convention it was also decided to o-roup the chapter into four districts. The district presidents erve on the National ouncil as vice-pre.iclent and each one L an organizer in her resp ctive district.

By the plan which Mrs. R. S. MacDougall devised for averaging scholastic grades, 1.000 is the perfect score. Delta chapter had the highest average this past year thus taking the cup away from Omicron chapter to whom it was awarded at the convention . Previous to that, Zeta chapter had the highest score for three successive years, thus keeping the cup permanently, and necessitating the purchase of a new cup. Mrs. MacDougall, chairman of the committee, has submitted the following repo rt which give the highe t individual cores as well as chapter averages.

AWARDS The only tangible reward which the Sorority has to give is the scholarship cup which, as stated in a previous paragraph, goes to Delta chapter.

It is hoped that at the next convention other awards will be devised for recognizing outstanding accomplishments.

However, it is possible to give honorable mention to the following persons and chapters for various laudable achievements.

To Dorothy Klingen smith of Omicron chapter for having the highest and only perfect scholastic grades in the Sorority. Her average was 1.000.

To the chapters and officers in West Virginia for one hundred per cent cooperation with the central office. The presidents, Miss Helen Bradley of Omicron chapter, Mrs. Ferne Shumate Phipps of Beckley, Miss Virginia Bailey of Bluefield, Miss Mellie Cassell of Welch, Mrs. Bula McNeill, district president, and Miss Romaine Kanode , alumnre representative, sent all reports and letters on time and in good form. The West Virginia chapters also cooperated perfectly with other national officers and committee chairmen.

To other chapter presidents who also followed the calendar faithfully: Eleanor Jane Hunter of Delta, Delores Hunter of Iota, Margaret Carroll of Zeta Tau, Audrey Lucke of Denver-Greeley, and Ester Griffith of Emporia.

To Mrs. Emily Fitzgerald, Alpha alumnre representative, for the work she did in organizing the Flint and Ypsilanti-Ann Arbor alumnre chapters.

12

THE ANC HOR

To Miss Beverly Bollard, Sigma alumnre representative, for securing from her alumnre the largest number of life membership pledges.

To all the alumnre representatives who have worked so diligently in preparing directories and histories; who have sent news letters and encouraged the payment of life membership fees.

To Emporia alumnre chapter for having the largest alumnre chapter membership.

To Eta chapter for securing the largest number of pledges and initiates.

To Maxine Ackley, president of Alpha ; Ethel Weimar, president of Lambda ; and Lillian Griffith, president of ru, for the courage and loyalty they manifested in leading their chapters safely through the year in spite of unfavorable conditions.

CHANGES FOR 1937-1938 Each year someone thinks of new plans that will improve the organization of the Sorority. There are two such plans this year. The first one, to have four issues of THE ANCHOR, has been explained by the editor.

The second change is to have the alumnre news letters sent from the central office. The representatives will prepare the letter as usual but the mimeographing and mailing will be done by the central office.

THE FUTURE We must pause at the end of our report and reflect upon the year's work.

What were the mistakes of last year? One set of mistakes was caused by the failure of some members to follow the calendar. Every national obligation is written on the calendar and, besides being printed in THE ANCHOR, it is sent to every chapter president and national worker.

Another rather low point is the fact that so few alumnre availed themselves of the reduced life membership fee. When an alumna realizes that she will receive THE ANCHOR and news letter for life and will be exempt from further payment of alumnre dues, she will eventually be grate ful to the person who urged her to pay her life membership fees at the reduced rate, which is effective only until September 1938.

On the other hand, there are many encouraging phases of our work, one being the growth of the alumnre chapter roll. There were sixteen last September, four added during the year, and seven very favorable prospects for this year.

There is also the fine work of the alumnre representatives. The number 路 of news letters sent each year is increasing, thus contacting the large group of alumnre who are too scattered to belong to alumnre chapters; each year the number of incorrect addresses is made smaller.

Although the initiation fees are higher on account of required life membership fees, the number of pledges has increased rather than decrea ed.

THE ANC HOR

13

Aside from reports and numbers, directories and letters, the soul of the Sorority also is growing. It is noticed in the interest that chapters are showing in. traditions, charity, and courtesy ; in the enthusiasm displayed in letters ; m the eagerness of chapter presidents and other national workers to cooperate and strengthen the Sorority.

We should indeed be grateful for our Sorority- for its ideals, its per: manence, and the friendships it affords us. For 1937-1938 should we not ' correct what few mistakes we have made this year and try harder than ever to do " Whatsoever things are lovely" ? For the Sorority this is a New Year. May the thoughts in the following psalm be ours.

A NEW YEAR 'S PSALM- ARco w I will lift mine eyes unto the hills and behold how on yonder horizon the rising sun is gilding the arch of hope on another new, unstained year.

What dare I wi h that this year may bring to me ? Only that which shall not make the world poorer because of me, nor become mine at the expense of others, yet which shall gather worth as it passes through me.

A few sincere friends who understand my loneliness, yet remain true because of my silence.

A capacity to understand and respond to the sufferings of others, knowing that they fight as hard a battle against many odds even as I. A mind unafraid to travel, though the trail is not blazed, and a heart willing to trust even when faith seems the most unreasonable of all efforts.

A sense of duty tempered with mercy; a conception of work as a privilege, and a feeling that responsibility is my debt for the right to live in a world where great ends are at stake.

A task to do which has real value, without which the world would be poorer, and the good I might produce be eternally lost.

A sense of humor and the power to laugh ; the grace to forgive and the humility to be forgiven; the willingness to praise, and the art to enjoy a little leisure with dreams.

A glimpse of the eternal hills, the unresting sea and the horizon-fusing plains ; and withal a capacity to appreciate something beautiful the hand of man has made.

A few wistful moments of quiet in the garish fever of the day ; and at nightfall a sense of the presence of God. Then the patience to wait for the coming of these things, that t he sunset 路of each day shall not be darkened by the clouds of my haste and the mists of my fretting doubt ; so as my little day closes to feel the encircling arms of " the love that will not let me go. " Respectfully submitted , C ARRIE

- Farewell p1cmc breakfast.

The Emporia group is looking forward eagerly to having the delegate and visitors from other chapters as guests in their homes and at the chapter house and is planning to find rooms for all who come. There will be a twenty- five cent registration fee for everyone ; the cost of the luncheon will not exceed sixty cents per plate, the dinner not over seventy-five cent per person, and the breakfast, twenty-five cent each.

We hope that as many girls as possibly can ao so will come from each chapter in the district, both collegiate and alumnce. Getting acquainted with one another and helping solve our mutual problems will give u aiel and encouragement in our own work, sti mulate our interest in our sorority and increase our appreciation of the true worth of Alpha igma Tau.
