SPRING 1974

Let'1 Go

DETilDJT Aug.12-16 The National Convention is the official meeting of delegates representing all Alpha Taus to conduct the business of the sorority.

There is more, much more, than can be gleaned from convention . You meet sisters, collegiates and alumnae, from all parts of our country ; share ideas, learn through workshops ; and much more important, you have a wonderful opportunity to meet with your national offi cers and make recommendations to guide them in planning the future of Alpha Sigma Tau. I do hope not only the official delegates have made plans for AST's 75th Celebration , but I would like to challenge each chapter to have as many representatives present as possible.

Only at convention will you get the feeling , in formation and benefits of seeing your entire sorority in action .

Come one, come all to celebrate the 75th birthday of Alpha Sigma Tau . Our sisters living in the area of our founding are working dil igently to make this a memorable occasion .

Things You Should Know About

DET!C!T Pictured is the body drop as the new Mustang II comes down the assembly line at the Dearborn Assembly Plant in Ford Motor Company"s Rouge manufacturing complex .

Sightseeing on the Detroit River

Dynamic Detroit will host the 20th national AST convention, Aug. 12-16 at the Hilton Hotel. You'll want to be here for all the special 75th anniversary celebration. In case this is your first visit to the Motor City, here are a few things you should know about Detroit.

Detroit's airport is about 20 miles west of town and the cab fare runs $7.50 or more if traffic is extremely busy. Limousines make the usual major hotel stops (including the Hilton) for $2.25 or you can drive yourself. It's freeway all the way with no delays except in rush hour.

Allow 45 minutes for travel time.

Taxis in Detroit operate on a meter system. Basic charge is 50 cents and 10 cents for each additional quarter mile. There is no extra charge for the number of riders.

As in any city, cabs are difficult to find during bad weather or rush hour.

Bus fare in metropolitan Detroit is 40 cents plus five cents for each transfer and additional zone. An added convenience for tourists is mini-bus service, operating between major hotels and the business district. The fare is 15 cents.

2

A variety of tours encompassing the city and its environs are available. Bus tours which last . from 2 to 5 hours are priced from $3.25 to $7.00. Call Grayline tours for -details. Sightseeing cruises on the Detroit River and terminating at a Canadian island amusement park are offered by Bob-lo.

No trip to the Motor City would be complete without a tour of the automobile plants. All plants will give you the "redcarpet treatment," but be sure to call in advance for information and reservations.

Plants may be closed and an advanced call will prevent disappointment.

The downtown area is a shopper's paradise and only a short walk from the Detroit Hilton. Woodward Avenue from Grand Circus Park south to Cadillac Square is lined with stores and shops offering practically every conceivable item at prices to suit all comers. The central shopping area extends several blocks to each side of Woodward and merges with the financial district.

Shoppers in downtown Detroit can browse through stores ranging from giant merchandise centers, like the J. L. Hudson Company, world's tallest department store, to small, exclusive specialty shops.

The Detroit River is the international boundary between the United State and Canada and most vi itor take time to journey across the border.

CHOR

Canada Tunnel Detroit's City-County Building looms in the background of this shot of the entrance to the Detroit-Windsor Tunnel , which co nn ects downtown Detroit with downtown Windsor , Ontaria in Canada. Vi sitors can journey from the U.S. to Canada in less than five minutes by auto or bus through the tunnel.

A five-minute ride through the DetroitWindsor Tunnel or over the Ambassador Bridge puts you in a foreign country. Toll for a car and two passengers is only 70 cents and buses run on a regular schedule between downtown Detroit and downtown Windsor for 25 cents a trip.

Detroit offers a wide variety of restaurant styles and diverse menus pleasing to every taste and budget. The standard fare of beef and seafood is available in restaurants at riverside or on sky-high rooftops.

Ambassador Bridge The Ambassador Bridge, spann in g the busy Detroit River , links Detroit and Windsor, Canada. More than 2,000,000 cars a year make use of this international gateway between the two neighboring countries. You may cross the border here into foreign soil with a minimum of formality.

Detroit Institute of Arts - Exterior & Statue A replica of "The Thinker " by Auguste Rodin guards the main entrance to the Detroit Institute of Arts , one of the wor ld 's great museums . Included in the Institute's collections are paintings , sculpture and decorative arts representing every great period in art history and every great art-producing culture from prehi storic times to the present.

Th e Institute is the focal point of Detroit's Cultural Center, a beautiful and impressive grouping of museums, libraries, university buildings and other cultural facilities just two miles from downtown.

The Detroit Institute of Arts ranks among the great U.S. museums_ Its collection of American art is world famed and the Institute is headquarters for the Archives of American Art_ A nine million dollar building program has recently tripled the museum's size.

The Institute of Arts is located just a few minutes north of downtown on WoodGreenfie ld Village (Independence Hall Ext.) The colonial entrance to the Henry Ford Museum is an exact copy of Independence Hall in Philadelph ia, " birthplace of American democracy. " Landmarks of American history are collected at Detroit 's GREENFIELD VILLAGE , founded by Henry Ford , and now the world's greatest collection of Americana.

You may browse through actual houses , shops , schools and public buildings, where history has been written. They have moved bodily to this 200-acre site from all parts of the U.S., and from some foreign countries , and restored to their original appearance.

In the adjacent 14-ac re Henry Ford Museum are spread out the fully stocked shops , the tools and machines, the furniture and household implements which made up the way of life of our fathers and grandfathers .

ward Avenue, Detroit's main thoroughfare in the city's Cultural Center. The are~ also encompasses the Main Library, the Detroit Historical Museum, the Children's Museum, the International Institute Rackham Center of the University of Michigan and the Detroit Institute of Musical Arts.

Chinatown, at Cass and Petersboro Avenues, and Greek town, on Monroe between St. Antoine and Beaubien are well worth visiting. But a word of caution: avoid walking on dark streets in the downtown area late at night alone. It's much better to travel in pairs and take a taxi.

To the west of Detroi't , in Dearborn, is the Henry Ford Museum and Greenfield Village. Here on 260 acres is a collection of Americana unmatched elsewhere.

The museum and village were established in 1929 by Henry Ford as his personal contribution to the preservation of America's past. More than 1 million visitors tour the exhibits and historical buildings each year, and the complex has been among the top 10 U.S. tourist attractions almost since its opening.

The museum itself covers 14 acres and contains vast collections of decorative arts, communications and power equipment, full scale replicas of early American shops and the world's largest collections of antique automobiles.

The editorial staff of THE ANCHOR is deeply indebted to Mr. Richard Keye, Associate Manager of the Metropolitan Detroit Convention and Visitors Bureau for the pictures of Detroit included in thjs issue. Mr. Keye has responded frequently to frantic requests and has been most generous with offers of assistance to make

Perhaps nowhere in the world is man 's ingenuity and inventiveness displayed than in the Henry Ford Mu路 seum in Dearborn . This display of automobiles is just one part of a fascinating collection which includes electrical. domestic and transportation exhibits . Adja路 cent is Greenfield Village, 200 years of American his路 tory in actual buildings transported to and re-con路 structed for public viewing .

Hot and humid are the best two words to describe Detroit in August. Drip-dry dresses, pant suits, a white dress for ceremonials and a long or short gown for the formal banquet are "musts" for your convention wardrobe. The formal opening on Monday evening will offer another opportunity to show off one of your long skirts.

There's much more to see and do in Detroit than listed here. Come to Detroit Aug. 12-16 for the AST convention and find out firsthand .

Nancy Danko

this a successful convention. We are indeed grateful for his many cordial letters, phone calls, and helpful advice.

Some of convention awards on display

The usual annual awards for chapter efficiency, scholastic achievement, and musical contributions will be presented at the formal banquet. All awards will be on display but every effort is made to keep information about winners, except those for music, a secret until the night of the banquet.

The traveling scholarship cup now in the possession of Alpha Omicron Chapter, will be awarded to the collegiate chapter with membership over twenty, achieving the highest scholastic rating for the 73-74 year. Smaller replicas of the cup will be presented to chapters ranking 2nd and 3rd with an award to the chapter with less than 20 members for first place only. A chapter receiving the 1st place award three years in succession has permanent possession of the large cup.

In addition to the usual presentations, some additional awards will be added this year for alumnae expansion, outstanding social service projects and successful rush programs.

Special awards, presented only at convention will include The Ada A. Norton Award to alumnae members for outstanding service to the sorority; The Helen R. Garman Award, presented to faculty advisers for loyal service; and The Carrie W. Staehle Award, presented to alumnae advisers for exceptional service to a collegiate chapter and the sorority. Awards will also be presented to three collegiate chapters for outstanding scrapbooks, judged on the organization and originality of the arrangement.

Again, the collegiate members in attendance will select the outstanding collegiate delegate to receive the Convention Top Tau Award. This award will be presented at the closing session.

SPECIAL LUNCHEON TO SELECT CONVENTION QUEEN One of the highlights of every convention is the selection of a Convention Queen and Princesses. The task of selecting these royal candidates is done by a panel of local judges. Their decision will be made on the basis of the candidate's loveliness, poise, personality, diction, voice and spontaniety. The 1974 Queen will be announced at a special luncheon on Tuesday when all queen candidates will be honored.

ARE YOU A CONVENTION BELLE? Each convention our group of Convention Belles gets larger. Your attendance at a third convention makes you eligible so check the list below and see if you qualify as a member of this loyal group of alumnae.

NATIONAL STAFF ELECTION COMING ! ! !

Since Taus everywhere will be celebrating the 75th anniversary of our sorority, the coming convention will be a most memorable one. Alpha Sigma Taus have been preparing, since last July, for the coming anniversary celebration to be held in Detroit this summer.

A recommendation, made by the 1972 Nominating Committee, approved by the National Council, to encourage all Alpha Sigma Tau members to participate in the selection of national officers and chairmen, will be put into action this year.

Those officers to be elected or appointed at the 1974 convention will hold office for a four year term. Those who are elected or appointed to serve for their first term, will be eligible to serve for a second four year term. All incumbent officers are eligible for re-election or re-appointment for one more four year term.

Before the opening of the convention a Nominating Committee will be chosen by the National Council to assist the Nominations Chairman. This committee will submit to the convention delegates a list of recommended candidates for each office to be filled . Nominations will also be accepted from the floor.

The object of this committee is to ensure the continued success and growth of our sorority. To help the committee achieve this goal we are asking the members to submit names of candidates qualified for the offices open. If a member is interested, feels she is qualified and has the time to devote to sorority, she is encouraged to submit her own name which will be given equal consideration.

Those offices which shall be open to election are: Vice President, District II Vice President, District VI Expansion Director Treasurer Those open to appointment are: Chaplain Pledge Chairman Program Chairman Rush Chairman Scholarship Awards Chairman Social Service Chairman Standards Chairman All prospective candidates for elective

12

offices should have had some national staff experience; appointees should have had some experience as a collegiate or alumnae chapter officer. A brief description of the duties of the offices follows: A National Vice President is required to oversee the activities of the chapters, both collegiate and alumnae, in her district.

The Expansion Director is responsible for the establishment of new collegiate and alumnae chapters wherever practical and possible.

The National Treasurer is required to maintain accurate records of all funds and accounts of the national organization, pay all bills authorized, prepare an annual budget and submit all records for annual audit.

The Chaplain is responsible for arranging the convention memorial service and the devotions at all meetings and special events at convention.

The Pledge Chairman keeps a record of all pledge tests, prepares a test to be given annually, up-dates and revises the Pledge Manual.

The Program Chairman prepares material for three program meetings each year and evaluates the reports required from collegiate chapters.

The Rush Chairman provides suggestions for rush parties and programs for collegiate chapters and keeps all members advised about trends in rush.

The Scholarship Awards Chairman appraises the scholastic standing of the collegiate chapters, announces awards in recognition of superior scholarship, evaluates and selects a Top Tau from each collegiate chapter and advises chapters of ways to improve scholastic rating.

The Social S ervice Chairman is responsible for recording and distributing contributions from members, evaluating reports of local projects and planning and promoting social service projects.

The Standards Chairman prepares study guide material on constitution and etiquette, prepares the examination covering this material for collegiate members and advises chapters of standard of performance in accordance with orority ideals.

50 ~HArt:ftivJYrfta/t~-Merrib;1-s=Founders' Day in the metropolitan Detroit area included collegiates from Alpha, Theta, and Alpha Theta chapters as well as alumnae from Detroit I and Ypsilanti-Ann Arbor chapters.

Assembling at the easily accessible Stephenson Club in Hazel Park, members were greeted by a Christmas card and gift

boutique. Proceeds from the sales were slated for social service projects.

Highlight of the program was the recognition of fifty year members of the Alpha and Theta chapters. The charming and vivacious ladies able to attend were Eva Covert and Emily Fitzgerald of Alpha and Gladys Dewey and Ruth Webb of Theta.

Theta Honorees, Gladys Dewey and Ruth Webb

Their youthfulness made it difficult to imagine that they had been in AST for fifty years. The audience was entertained by stories of sorority activity fifty years ago, particularly the formation of Theta Chapter. Emily's friend, Margaret Walters who attended Detroit Teachers College was so impressed by sorority activities that Emily described, that she asked if there might be a chapter in Detroit. With Edith Mansell's help, Theta Chapter was born. Theta's beautiful new

silver punch bowl was on display, the fiftieth anniversary gift from the National Council of Alpha Sigma Tau. Detroit Alumnae Chapter presented Theta Chapter with a coffee urn. Scrapbooks from various periods in Theta's history added to the interest.

It was fittin g that the program concluded with an inspiring candlelight ing service in which members pledged continued loyalty to the ideals and purposes of Alpha Sigma Tau .

u\fatto~aQ cpa~~eQQe~tc Co~beke~ce Mary Louise Doyle, NPC Delegate The 43rd session and the 71st year of National Panhellenic Conference opened its four day meeting on October 21, 1973 at the Riverfront Hotel in Memphis, Tennessee. Mrs. Justin G. Doyle, Alpha Sigma Tau's National Delegate, gave the invocation and led those assembled in the Pledge of Allegiance.

Reports of the Standing Committees indicated that 1971-73 was a very busy and a most productive biennium. Collegians particularly can appreciate the completion during this period of the first handbook exclusively for use by College Panhellenics-the HOW-TO FOR COLLEGE PANHELLENICS. The popular brochure KNOW YOUR NPC was revised.

The College Panhellenics Committee continues to serve over 400 College Panhellenic Associations in the United States

and Canada. Its newsletter- PH FACTOR - has proven to be popular and will continue to be used as a means of offering suggestions and ideas for successful programs and for keeping Greeks "in the know."

The City Panhellenics Committee, through its six issues of THE NEWS BULLETIN, provided a valuable way of sharing good and innovative ideas and other news items with City Panhellenics.

The work of the CPC, basically conc.erned with the alumnae phase of panhellenism, continues to be of great value in promoting a favorable Greek image and in encouraging high school graduates to consider joining one of the member sororities.

The NPC-NA WDC Liaison Committee of National Association/ Women Deans and Counselors presented an informative panel to the Conference. This committee serves a very useful purpose in keeping the Conference in step with changing campus situations and attitudes of both students and administrative personnel, Greeks and non-Greeks.

Unlike most of the recent biennium sessions much of the work concerned changes in the inner workings of the Conference itself rather than collegian or alumnae workings. For example, it has been recognized for some time that changing conditions affecting our membership might make it necessary to amend or change some of our Unanimous Agreements. It was voted to continue to require unanimous consent to enact an Agreement but that it would take % vote torepeal or amend an Unanimous Agreement - instead of the unanimous vote now required.

Of interest to collegians is an amend-

ment to the Panhellenic Compact regarding pledges remaining in a chapter whose charter has been rescinded or relinquished. Until now there was no provision for these pledges. A new section in the Panhellenic Compact provides that they shall be eligible to pledge another sorority immediately following the official release of the pledges by the sorority. Pledges of a "colony" which has been dissolved shall be eligible to pledge another sorority immediately following the official release of the pledges by the sorority.

Another item of interest is that when a pledge has broken her pledge, or had her pledge broken by the sorority, she may join another NPC sorority by waiting a year from the time she originally pledged instead of from the time she depledged.

NPC emphasizes to College Panhellenics that invitations to pledge are to be issued ONLY after a student has been on campus and had an opportunity to participate in a rush-whether or not they actually do participate.

AST Alum Tags Butterflies If you happen to see a brightly colored butterfly skimming its way south with a small piece of white plastic on its wing, don't think it's a freak of nature. It's probably just a protege of Maxine Wright.

Working with a research project at the University of Toronto in Canada, Maxine tags Monarch butterflies with specially coded white strips in order to trace their migration patterns.

Maxine lives in Mountain Brook, Alabama, and teaches a second grade class at Brookwood Forest School.

"People have been tagging these things for the last 20 years," she said. "In all, more than 400,000 have been recorded.

But we still don't know enough about why they migrate."

The butterfly usually follows a route which it takes from Canada to the Southeast. It hugs the Gulf Coast toward Texas and then heads for Mexico. The number of Monarchs flying through Alabama reach their peak in early October.

"We've had great success so far in tracking the insects," she said, "but there is one problem we haven't overcome.

When the butterflies reach Mexico and people catch them, a lot of times we never hear about it. Most of them can't read the English on the tags."

Maxine has been past national program chairman and was recently very in trumental in helping organize the Birminuham Alumnae Chapter.

Parents' Weekend Highlights Beta's Semester

We had a very good turnout for our annual Parents' Weekend. The weather was perfect for the CMU vs. Eastern football game. Afterwards, there was dinner and dancing at a nearby country club.

Everyone had a good time and we are looking forward to entertaining our parents again next year.

Betas show off their new color TV and stereo.

The Central Michigan University Taus started out a great semester this year with the initiation of nine new pledges.

We are proud to have Shirley Daigle, Diana Dunn, Margie England, Debbie Hatfield, Jennifer Holmes, Michelle Randall and Carol Ritter as our new sisters.

The ASTs were really fired-up in sports this fall. They played football , volleyball,

The Beta Chapter is the proud owner of a new stereo and color television. They arrived just in time to show off to our dates at the Christmas dance pre-party which was followed by a dance at the Chieftain Motor Lodge in Alma. It was the last big event of the semester and was certainly one to remember-A perfect end to a fantastic semester.

Up With Delta The fall semester at Indiana University of Pennsylvania was a prosperous one for Delta. First was fall rush which was very successful. Under the direction of Linda Kubany, we received nine new pledges.

ANCHOR

The theme for this years Homecoming was "See America First". Delta worked with the brothers of Kappa Sigma on our entry, " Discover America". Much credit is given to Carol Andree, float chairman, and the sisters and brothers who devoted their time and efforts.

Founders' Day this semester was celebrated with a dinner and ceremony at Bruno's Restaurant. The chapter's history was given by historian, Pat Sankey.

Vice president, Marilyn Stemler, gave a presentation of our chapter today. Kathy Katocs and Jayne Cook sang the pledge dance song from Fall of 1972, which won first place in National competition.

We had a Halloween party at a sister's apartment with costumes, skits, refreshments and close companionship.

We helped with the Theta Chi Marathon to raise money for the Big BrothersBig Sisters program at I.U.P. Each sister and pledge ran or walked 25 laps around the block for a penny a lap.

The sisters were invited to many mixers this semester and we accepted invitations from Lambda Chi Alpha, Sigma Chi, Kappa Sigma, and Tau Kappa Epsilon.

We were also invited for a mixer with Kappa Sigma at Washington and Jefferson College. This was a weekend affair which began with a frolicking game of football followed by dinner entertainment provided by a live group.

Delta is looking forward to many more exciting activities, the pledge semi-formal dance, the "Big-Little Sis" party for their big sisters, and initiation.

each of the rushees dressed up as Alice while the sisters dressed like the other characters in Alice in Wonderland. We received and welcomed two new pledges, Gail Ray and Lee Richart.

The sorority was represented on the homecoming court by Georgette Rolley.

During this same weekend, our homecoming float won first prize to the surprise of all who worked on it. The first prize consisted of $125.00 dollars, a great addition to our treasury.

Part of the money won for c~r float is being used to support a little boy in Brazil.

Under the Christian Children's Foster Parent Plan, we are helping to feed him and send him to school. It's truly a worthwhile and valuable experience.

We had a Halloween party for thirtyfive of the underpriviledged children of Lock Haven. We played games, dunked for apples and had a really good time.

Karen Schooley deserves a lot of credit for organizing the proceedings.

We celebrated our Founders' Day in November with a spaghetti dinner prepared by some of the sisters.

Once again we sang for the prisoners at the Allenwood Prison. We joined forces with the brothers of the Tau Kappa Epsilon Fraternity for the occasion. Even though we didn't sound like the Mormon Tabernacle Choir, the Alpha Sigma TauTau Kappa Epsilon choir gave it their all!

Zeta Chapter Has f7ery Lively Semester The sisters of the Zeta chapter of the Alpha Sigma Tau Sorority have had a very busy semester, and as it gradually comes to a close, many interesting events seem to have taken place.

Our theme for rush this year was "Alice in Tauland." During the round robbins, we used skits to describe Alice's search for Tauland. At the final party that week,

Season of Change at Theta Chapter Theta chapter started the Fall Quarter of 1973 with a new rush chairman Sue Rivard. Our first rush party was informal the theme was fall, cider and donuts were served, with a sing-along around a campCHOR

fire for the finale. Everything went very well. Our last party was a formal dinner with yellow roses being given after our fellowship circle, and candle-lighting ceremony. As a result of good rushing we pledged three girls, Janice Polisei, Della Zeffer, and Diane Luna. Their big sisters are Donna Kanigowski, Judy Fox, and Sue Rivard. The girls are very enthusiastic about the sorority and hopefully their enthusiasm will continue to grow after their initiation. They have stolen pledge books from the fraternities . They helped the actives almost win a game of touch football against Alpha Kappa Psi fraternity. Pledge turn about day was rather fun for the pledge. They made the actives wear green and yellow finger nail polish and a big whistle around their neck so they could locate the active. They went through a pre-initiation party which was a lot of fun for all.

Our faculty advisor Miss Montroy was initiated with Theta Chapter this past summer. We are very happy with her.

Two of our actives are getting married this coming year. Pat Alberda, Barb Kotula, we wish them the very best.

Our Founders' Day luncheon, N ovember 3, 1973, was held at the Stephenson Club. The Detroit Alumnae Chapter gave us a present of an eighty-five cup coffeemaker which is greatly appreciated.

Dads' week-end was held on October 6-7 this year. The fathers were entertained Saturday afternoon by a skit performed by the girls and then a slide presentation of Russia was shown by our social affiliate. After dinner, the girls and their dads went to the football game and then out for a night of dancing. The weekend ended Sunday after everyone attended church.

The next big event at K.S.T.C . was homecoming. The Iotas won 3rd. in house decorations contest and were also entered in the homecoming parade. After the football game, the collegiate members were hostesses at a tea for all the alumnae.

It was our 50th year here at Emporia and so we celebrated it with a big cake at the tea.

Founders' Day was held on November 13th and to celebrate the event, the Iotas held a dinner for the alums. This was followed by speeches given by Jane Stoneking on what the pledges had been doing and one by Kathy Nerka on the active chapter. We were then all entertained by Dr. Dallas Roarke, who spoke on the philosophy of life.

The rest of the semester is scheduled with our formal December 8, and our Christmas party on December 11. We here at K.S.T.C. have been very successful the last 50 years and our only hope is that our next 50 years will be even more successful.

Iotas Celebrate Omicron Rebutlds Birthday rear Membership

The Iota Chapter of Alpha Sigma Tau began the fall semester at Kansas State Teachers College pledging eight new sisters: Patti Harris, Marcia Hinnenkamp, Mindie Goenner, Janie Stoneking, Sue Mays, Diana Gerard, Anita Billings, and Mona Percy.

ANCHOR

Due to the loss of 23 seniors in the class of '73, Omicrons welcomed back only 16 actives this fall. Rush was the week of September 17-23 with " Paint A Picture of AST" as the theme. All rushees painted a picture of what they felt sorority should 33

mean to them and actives joined in by telling what it did mean.

Even though there was a lot of vandalism on campus, Alpha Taus and Sig Taus stayed in the Homecoming spirit and ran Pam Reed for queen. A tea was given for alumnae and friends before the game.

Founders' Day was celebrated in a big way this year. The week end was started off with a hike and the painting of the letters by the pledges. Our annual Sadie Hawkins Dance was held with the TKE fraternity on Saturday night in the college ballroom. The week end was highlighted with a luncheon and candlelighting ceremony on Sunday afternoon. Dr. Billy Coffindaffer, president of Concord and Bluefield State Colleges was guest speaker. Other special guests included Ms. Mona Poling, Dean of Women at Concord, and many alumnae from the Athens-Princeton and Bluefield Chapters.

A slumber party at Carrie Sharris' and Kathy Woods' apartment was given for the pledges on a snowy Saturday night.

The semi-annual Big Sis-Lil Sis party was given by the pledges the next evening.

A new tradition of "capping the pledges" was started last spring. The pledges who are to be initiated are given an AST beanie to wear for 24 hours-at all times-before initiation. Fall '73 initiation brought the number of Omicron actives to a total of 26.

Taus are represented in many campus organizations. Miss Mildred Mansfield, our faculty advisor, is the National President of Kappa Omicron Phi, Home Economics Honorary, and serving as secretary for the local chapter is Dianna Parks.

Betty Powell and Mandy Covey are members of Kappa Delta Pi Education Honorary. Dianna and Mandy are active in Cardinal Key Honor Sorority. Selected for Who's Who in American Colleges and Universities were Dianna, Betty and Pam Reed. Omicron nominees for Top Tau are Dianna, Mandy and Pam. Bernice King is Vice President of the Womens Recreational Association. She and Carmellia Sallie are on the college womens intramural teams. We are very proud to have Jo Anne Farmer as Con-

34

cord's Panhellenic President.

Last spring, Marsha Starr was named Theta Xi Sweetheart. She is the fourth consecutive Tau to be given this title.

Skipper Adkins, Theta Xi, was named AST Sweetheart at our Yellow Rose, also held last spring.

Omicron chapter has two honorary members. They are Malissa Ann Bowling, daughter of Tim and Debbie Bowling.

Malissa is 10 months old. Becky and Charley Carter are the proud parents of our second honorary member. Charles Cameron born October 28.

Taus are very active in the intramural program, and even though we may not win very often, we are always in on the fun with lots of joy and laughter. The new actives are more athletic than the old ones and even had the nerve to win a volleyball game between the two groups while still pledges. At the annual intramural track meet, J o Ellen Harless and Mary Masters wanted to win so badly that they tried killing themselves. Both girls came back with pulled muscles and J o Ellen even ended up on crutches.

We are very glad to have Mary Ann Swach as one of our advisors. Mary Ann is an AST from Alpha Lambda Chapter in Radford. Her husband is dorm director for one of the men's dorms here at Concord.

Even though we study hard, we always have time for socials. The TKE fraternity had an all sorority social at the beginning of the semester, which all four campus sororities attended. All five groups invited independents which helped as a rush function. We later had a social with the Theta Xis. We have all heard of Fraternity drop, but this semester's pledges had sorority drop. We have a tradition of repledging on the date of our initiation. On November 19, five actives repledged . That evening, the new actives kidnapped Sherry Blanton and Pam Reed and dropped them off. But the girls did have someone waiting for them after the little scare!

All in all, the fall '73 semester wa a very busy one and all Omicrons will be remembering it for the rest of our li e .

Pi's Keep Busy The Pi chapter at Harris Teachers College in St. Louis kicked off the fall semester with two rush parties. Our informal party featured a presentation of "The Wizard of Tau" and the theme of the formal party was "Travel Through the Orient With AST." Both parties proved to be quite successful as we received pledges Diane Ziegler and Kathy Villani. Later, we received an open bid from Sue Armbruster. We have taken much pride in this ambitious and funloving trio.

Following our rush parties, we were busy with a terrific fund-raising project.

We ran a booth at a two-day carnival sponsored by the University of Missouri at St. Louis. A lot of hard work and planning were involved, but the proceeds made our efforts well worthwhile.

A full moon and a crackling campfire set the scene for a Greek hayride in which the Pi chapter participated. All of the sororities and fraternities at Harris showed real togetherness in this effort at Greek unity.

Founder's Day this year was celebrated with our alumnae chapter at Romine's restaurant on November 1. The good food and good company made the night most memorable of Alpha Sigma Tau's 75th year.

Sandie Bickell, Donna Riechers, Nancy Minard, Kathy Simon and Marcia Yehlen received recognition from the Student Congress for their help in painting a mural on the walls of our student annex.

Their efforts have added a delightful new look to the room.

The St. Louis Professional Women honored Sandie Bickell at a recent painting exhibit at the University of MissouriSt. Louis. Her painting was one of thirty chosen from a total of 350 entries.

First, we had the opening of our new house at 1 Pollock Drive. The house is beautiful! We cannot say enough to express our appreciation to Mrs. Mary Moon, our alumnae adviser, Mrs. Jan Frowein, and Miss Helen Buckley, our faculty adviser. There are thirty girls living in the house, with our house parents Mr. and Mrs. Robert Boryska. We have had an extremely good time living with our sisters, and seeing our dreams, come true.

Can the " Wizard of Tau" really help me?

In October Psi was busy with Madison's First Annual Homecoming activities. The sisters participated by helping in the college's first National Alum Telethon, working on Panhellenic's float and our own officer's car for the parade, and by preparing an open house following the football game for our parents and alumnae. That month we also rolled to University of Virginia with our rushees, for a party.

Alpha Phis Get a Flying Start The Alpha Phi chapter at West Chester State College in West Chester, Pa., returned from summer with excitement and honors in store for them. With only a few short weeks to prepare, fall rush was upon us.

Rush brought our sisters into a closer bond of sisterhood. With two teas on September 26 and October 2, we were proud to pin-pledge ten new pledges. They are Debbie Kamerling, Debbie Missel, Pat Roth, Joan Morgan, Dawn Vonsydow, Linda Peace, Diane Shaettone, Muffy Doordan, Carol Wehrenberg and Lynn Oliver. A pledge party was held in honor of the sisters, where after putting on their skit and singing songs, everyone enjoyed the delicious food and had a good time.

Halloween brought the Alpha Phis to the Brandywine Firehouse for an all Greek party. The sisters also gave a Halloween party for the pledges, and after trick-or-treating on campus, the pledges returned with their goodies to dunk for apples.

Homecoming was the highlight of this semester as the Alpha Phis prepared for Rampage weekend where we teamed up with the Friars to construct our float. In keeping with the theme of "2001-Space Odyssey", our entry was " Computer Take Over" for which we won first prize for ' the second consecutive year.

Another important aspect of sorority life is service to others. The few days before Thanksgiving found the Alpha Phis collecting pennies in the dorms and cafeteria. Twenty-five dollars was donated to the Salvation Army. The Alpha Phis also spent an afternoon cleaning the cornerstone on campus. Our third project which is still continuing is collecting coupons for a kidney machine. 路 As a new semester approaches, we once again anticipate such things as rush, our yellow rose formal and Greek Weekend.

semester. Our carnival show entitled, "Don't Rock the Boot," was a definite success. The judges were impressed and as a result, we were one of the three sororities to place. The sisters were very eager to add this trophy to our vast collection. Because of our equally intense effort during rush, we had the honor welcoming fourteen pledges into our ranks.

In November, the sorority rightfully honored them at the Pledge Acceptance Date Party. The semester ended just as vigorously as it began. We entered one our sisters, Jeanne Gleeson and Rich Hinderhoffer, a brother of Kappa Sigma Phi in Duquesne's Dance Marathon for Muscular Dystrophy. While Jeanne and Rich were dancing for 52 hours, the sisters collected $1100 .00 for the cause. As a result of our effort our two representatives each won a portable television, and the sorority received another trophy.

Linda Trujillo, one of the pledges, also danced in the marathon and won a check for $500.00. The sisters are looking forward to an equally successful spring semester.

of Shippensburg State College, Shippensburg, Pennsylvania, filled with tales of their summer activities and with many ideas to keep us busy during the fall semester.

No sooner did we unpack our bags when we joined our rushees for a magical trip down the Yell ow Brick Road to the "Land of Tau," Formal Rush , an evening that was very enjoyable. To help with our rushi ng, the sisters of Beta Epsilon held a highly successful joint rush party with the brothers of Kappa Sigma. For our final rush , the rushees donned their pajamas and carried their teddy bears to "Story Time With t he Taus", and listened to a few 'rearranged' fairy tales.

With the conclusion of rushing, we welcomed ten pledges to our ranks.

Many sister-pledge activities were planned during pledging to help the pledges and sisters get better acquainted.

Included on the agenda were two pledge trade days with Sigma Tau Gamma and Kappa Sigma, a bowling night, and an exercise morning, a rare sight to watch as a group of girls try to act coordinated at 6:00a.m.!

Homecoming at SSC was a very special occasion for Beta Epsilon . It was a return to that golden era of the "Nifty Fifties," as students laced up their saddle shoes and slicked back their hair. With so many of our sisters returning for the event, we were very proud when Beta Epsilon's own Jill House was named as one of the seven finalists for H omecoming Queen.

Many long, hard hours of work went into the making of our float, which was of our hero, Mickey Mouse, and tension was running high when it came t ime to announce the winners of t he float contest.

Then we heard what we had been waiting for. Beta Epsilon had won first place in the Class B division! Homecoming was a day we will long remember.

In observance of Founders' Day, Beta Epsilon held a dinner, welcoming many alumnae living in the Harrisburg area.

Beta Z eta Antictpates Another Busy Season When fall finally arrived after a lazy summer, Beta Zeta Chapter was found eager with anticipation for a busy and active quarter. Rush centered around five parties-the first being a visit to the "Wonderful World of Alpha Sigma Tau" .

The girls were involved with Disneyland characters and tried to identify them.

Next, we had a Sunday get-together called "Flying High with Alpha Sigma Tau" .

Hot dogs were roasted; football was played; and enjoyment was had by all.

The last parties included an exercise class with a salad bar, a trip to the zoo, and a final serious party. We were proud to welcome our new Alumnae Adviser Mrs . Gloria Nussbaum, to our seriou~ p~rty along with Mrs. Sybil King, Alpha Sigma Tau's National President, and Dr. Roberta Long, Beta Zeta's Faculty Adviser.

The fall quarter rolled along with the Beta Zetas playing football and enjoying

Beta Eta Welcotnes 12 Pledges This summer Beta Eta Taus at Southern Illinois University, Edwardsville, Illinois, were busy planning an active year.

Summer social events included a memorable picnic with Zeta Alpha Phi, a night at Muny Opera in St. Louis, a trip to Busch Stadium with our fathers to see the Cardinals, a Bar-B-Q and an all day auction.

Our president, Pat O'Rourke, was given the honor of working in an honors program at the American Cancer Institute in Buffalo, New York.

Summer afforded us the opportunity to work for a successful rush. On August 15 we took rushees to a rock concert at MRF. During rush, we had two rush parties-a bowling party and an Alpha Sigma Tau-co Party. The results of fall rush proved that our efforts weren't in vain. The enthusiastic members of ANCHOR

Zeta Pledge Class are Cindy Britton, Jean Frederking, Linda Grieve, Theresa Haines, Sharon Heine, Cathy Johnson, Lucy Johnson, Karen Masek, JoAnne Metz, Cheryl Meyer, Becky Schroeder, and Marcia Seybert.

Fall quarter proved to be an exciting three months. Two of our sisters were married, our soccer team was No. 1 in the nation, several girls attended Alpha Epsilon's house dedication, we had an intramural volleyball team and, naturally we celebrated Founders' Day with our alums.

AST socials included a pizza blast with ZAI and and a football game with TKEs. Two sisters, Kathy and Debbie Jones 1 were named TKE Little Sisters and Debbie Welborn became Concert Chorale's vice-president.

47

Our fall quarter will conclude with our Toys-for-tots Swing-a-than. KSD radio has chosen AST and a St. Louis University fraternity to work for this needy cause. As we swing our way into the hearts of millions-we remain your Beta Eta Taus!

Alpha Chis Have a Fun Semester As the year 1974 opens, Alpha Chis wish to look back on what they have accomplished since the beginning of the semester.

During the month of October our sorority was quite active in a variety of school programs which encompassed different aspects of campus living.

First of all, Jean Marie Quigley was a finalist in the annual Homecoming Queen Contest. Following this Alpha Sigma Tau involved itself in the cultural events in the Boston area. A trip to the Christian Science Church of Boston was organized during which an extensive tour was given.

We also attended the play "The Day After the Fair" which starred Deborah Kerr.

To speak of a "sweeter" aspect of college life, AST initiated a cake sale on campus which proved very successful.

On the fun side Alpha Sigma Tau joined with ZBT in throwing a Halloween Party for the young children of the area.

At times it seemed as if the older kids were enjoying the party more than the younger ones, but all in all everyone had a really good time.

Besides these outside events, Alpha Sigma Tau commenced rush week to gain new members for our sorority. We kicked

48

off the recruitment drive with a wine and cheese party. Later, any girl who wished to pledge had to paint a picture illustrating her concept of sorority.

Sarah Daniel and Joanne Hosker wished to pledge AST and the members took them to dinner at the Peweter Pot. In return the pledges gave a party for the sisters on November 30th. Spaghetti and meatballs with salad were served.

To climax rush events a Sister Weekend was held on January 5th. The pledges had to perform such tasks as carrying goody bags, writing autobiographies and making collages to be presented to the sisters at the end of the weekend. Wearing their own unique homemade hats the pledges and accompanying sisters invade downtown Boston where they obtained seventeen bachelors' telephone numbers and somehow managed to get men's signatures on a pair of panties. They also tried, without success, to purchase a handbag to match their hats.

After the conclusion of this weekend our decision concerning the admittance of the two new pledges into the sorority will be announced.

A nnual Events Set The P ace Dorothea P orter was hostess for our annual Tau Tot Time in July at her Long Beach, Ontario, Canada summerhome. It was a pleasant time for children and mothers alike with t he sun shining, temperature in the 70's and the water calm.

Our regular schedule of meetings began in September with a smorgasbord for members, their husbands and escorts at the home of Janet and Ed Bartlett. The end of the month Marion Lapp was hostess for a board meeting.

Margaret Mead's Blackberry Winter was the subject of a book review at our October dessert meeting held at Lillian Gondree's home. Preceding the review given by Mrs. Marjorie Torrell, a librarian for the Kenmore-Town of Tonawanda libraries, a business meeting was held.

Founders' Day was celebrated with a luncheon at the Little White House. Our speaker for the day was Harold Dodge, president of the Buffalo Ornithological

50

Society. His talk was entitled " Wild Life in Western New York" and was accompanied by slides taken by Mr. Dodge and is wife.

Midway through November we held a Tupperware party at the Church of the Good Shepherd as a money making project. Thanks to Karen Howard and Pat Nichols, the general chairmen, it was a success. To end the month Helene Blackledge was hostess for our second board meeting of the year.

In keeping with the holiday spirit in December we had a regular dessert meeting at the home of Marilyn Todd where after the business meeting we had a pirate gift exchange. Florence and Jim Bates opened t heir home later in the week to everyone for our annual Christmas Punch Party.

As we closed t he first half of the year we looked back at a good beginning and forward to an even better second half.

Project for the year is the Salvation Army Auxiliary. October 27, 1973 a delightful luncheon meeting was held at the Cottonwood Cottage, Nywot, Colorado. After lunch the group enjoyed browsing in the quaint gift shop. November 17, 1973 Founders' Day was observed at the home of Mrs. William Grove. Hosting the luncheon with Mrs. Grove, was Mrs. Del Englen. Unanimous approval was given the support of Iota Chapter.

December 15, 1973 the delightful Christmas party was held in the home of Mrs. Norman Page. Hosting the lovely party was Mrs. C. B. McGoveran, and Mrs . Page. Gift exchange and carols made this so special.

One Year Old and Involved Our first year has really been a busy one! In June we hosted a Tupperware Party in order to aid our treasury. It turned out to be quite a success as we not only earned a lot of money, but we qualified for a barbeque pit as well.

We got a little over-confident with ourselves in our next project-selling decm·ative and animal-shaped candles with matching holders. Our profits were almost nill, and it caused so much trouble and aggravation that Jeanne Brunwort h, our chairwoman, now shudders any time the word "candle" is mentioned.

With that all behind us we took our husbands and boyfriends to the Cardinal baseball game on July 27. We were having such a good time we didn't mind the Mets beating us. After the game we went to 51

Shakey's for some pizzas and were serenaded by Marcia Tennill's husband, Dana, as he pounded out some heavy ragtime music on the piano. It wasn't until he started playing with his elbows that the rest of the people in the parlor knew it was a player-piano!

As the summer closed we got together for a picnic at Sharon Eberlin's house in honor of our collegiate sisters at Southern Illinois University. Many thanks to Tom Eberlin who cranked out all that delicious home-made ice cream.

At our September meeting we inducted two new members. They are Sharalee Dowd and Kathlee Ervin. Sharalee and her husband Rick have recently returned to the area after being stationed in California. Kathlee and her husband Ed moved in October to Seattle where he is now stationed. So, the Navy has returned one of our sisters to us, but taken another away.

For Halloween Chris Schrumm and John Ramspot hosted a terrific masquerade party at John's clubhouse on the river. Many of our favorite personalities attended: Harpo and Groucho Marx (Marcia and Dana Tennill), Mr. & Mrs. Scarecrow (Tom and Sharon Eberlin), Bonnie & Cylde (Nancy Gaudino and Ed), a boy scout and girl scout (Joe and Nancy La Fiore), and Bobby Riggs & Billie Jean King (Bill Winetroub and Carol Pashoff).

We invited our collegiate chapter, Beta Eta, to celebrate Founders Day with us on November 4th at Luigi's Restaurant.

The dinner was kept simple and informal so the collegiates and alumnae could get to know each other better.

As our service project we made about 70 napkin rings for a local nursing home.

Each poinsettia-design napkin ring was made of green and red felt, and had to be sewed together by hand. The home used them on Christmas Day to brighten up each patient's dinner tray.

The first week of December was a rough one for our collegiates-not only because it was the week before finals, but because they had to man the swing 24 hours a day for six days at the Swing-athon, a local promotion sponsored by the

52

U.S. Marine Corps and St. Louis radio station KSD to collect old but reusable toys for needy children at Christmas. Due to their jobs and children, not all of our members were able to help the Beta Etas in their tremendous undertaking. We would like to publicly express our deepest thanks and appreciation to the Beta Eta chapter for unselfishly helping the Toys for Tots program as well as for proving to the St. Louis metropolitan area that Alpha Sigma Taus really are Active, SelfReliant and Trustworthy! Job well done!

~Emporia ...

Summer Work For Iota 1973 was an exciting year for the Emporia Iota alumnae, as 1973 was the fiftieth year for Alpha Sigma Tau on the Kansas State Teachers College campus.

The alumnae, with the collegiates, held a birthday party in April at the chapter house. The program included a brief history of the sorority on the K. S. T. C. campus. The history was presented by both alumnae and patronesses. Betty Rose was in charge of the arrangements.

In May, the alumnae held their annual husbands' party. We met together for a Sunday night dinner at the Red Lion Restaurant.

June was work month for the alumnae.

Along with some of the husbands, we met several evenings and painted some of the study rooms. Lindy Whetzel and Dodi Thill were co-chairladies for the project.

In July, alumnae made free form lollipops and sold them at the annual downtown Sidewalk Sale. Money made was used to pay for the paint. Pat Bridgeman and Donna Roberts were responsible for the project's success.

Our fall meetings began in September at the home of Twila Stone. New officer installed were: Twila Stone, pre ident路 Kay McKnab, vice-president; Pegg Barnett, secretary; Nancy Leitnaker treasurer; and Dodi Thill, editor.

HOR

A card party in the home of Lindy Whetzel substituted for our regular business meeting in October.

November was Homecoming at KSTC. Alumnae were invited to the sorority house following the football game for birthday cake. Also in November we celebrated Founders' Day with the' collegiates at dinner in the sorority house.

In December as the first semester comes to an end, we will take goodies to the sorority house during Final Week. We will also say goodbye to two fine members of our alumnae group; Mrs. Sally Conrad, alumnae advisor, and Mrs. Vena Durham, faithful patroness, who are moving to Colorado Springs.

Alumnae Enjoy Luncheon Meetings Lansing Alumnae Chapter is enjoying luncheon meetings this year in place of our usual evening affairs.

In October, we had a "Fall Round-up," reviewing summer activities and making plans for another year.

November, we observed our annual Founders' Day with a luncheon in Mason.

Maxine Springer had charge of our impressive candle lighting service with Carolyn Forche as co-hostesses.

December meeting was omitted-but we "splurged" in January by "eating out" , enjoying a social afternoon.

Allura Custer and husband had a great time last summer traveling six weeks throughout the south and west. They traveled a week with Marie Troub Ben·ell 53

(AST) to Sedona and to California. While enroute, they had the pleasure of talking with Frances Higgins (AST) in Los Angeles.

Margaret Twork and her husband spent the summer gardening, canning, freezing and refurbishing "the ol' homestead".

Among their many guests was Margaret Pollock Small from Tucson .

Lenore Davis had a lovely trip to the South Pacific- visiting Tahiti, Australia and New Zealand . Whoops! she's off again.

Margaret Craddock spent a few days with Frances Smith Davis at Burr Lake.

She said, "We always have such a good time reminiscing about old Alpha Sigma Tau days at Ypsilanti." (Class 1920) .

Gertrude Kimmich and husband spent the summer at Higgins Lake. From there they went to the Canadian Soo where they boarded the Algoma Central R.R. and took the Scenic 117 mile trip to Agawa Canyon .

Maxine Springer and husband took their annual vacation out east to visit their two sons and their families.

Dorothy Hughes who lives in Charlotte, spent three months in France and Spain again- with a few days in Morocco where she mounted a camel for the first time . In July, she attended the Annual Festival of the Arts in Quebec City.

During Charlotte's third annual " Frontier Days," she wrote and directed a melodrama, "Home Sweet Home" which was presented twelve times in the "Alley Theatre." To build up the Civic Theatre's treasury, she sponsored a bake sale and a rummage sale. Dorothy was publicity chairman for the production, "Oliver."

During her spare (?) moments, she is kept busy planning programs for six other organizations.

Florence Baker and husband had a fabulous vacation last May. Paul was Lansing's official delegate to the International Rotary Conference which was held in Lausanne, Switzerland. The Conference was a most inspiring and interesting affair being held in a superb setting on Lake Geneva with 17,000 delegates plus many others from all parts of the world.

54

Florence returned home in time to busy herself with volunteer hospital duties and a successful A.A.U.W. Book Sale which netted $4,000.00 for local and national Educational Scholarships.

I am very sorry to report that our two loyal sisters from Nashville, MichiganMary Walton (Alpha-1905) and her sister Isabel Welch (Alpha-1913), are in Bronson Hospital, Kalamazoo. As the result of an auto accident, Mary received a fractured shoulder blade and many bruises, while Isabel was a bit more fortunate-no broken bones but badly shaken up and bruised. Their address is 224 Maple St., Nashville, Michigan.

Dorothy Brodhead (after 7 years) finally got herself a nice, long vacation this fall; she drove her landlady back to Florida-returning in time for Christmas and that white stuff!

Leisure City, south of Miami, is a hospitable busy little city where many "covered-dish" dinners are served and crafts flourish . In addition to paper tole and bead work, she thoroughly enjoyed studying leaded glass with Richard Grafe, a glass artisan who designs and sells small glass articles, as well as his tiffanystyle lampshades and wood and glass screens. Dorothy said, "Twas fun while it lasted."

New Orleans Turn of Events!

N. 0. alums heralded the New Year at a luncheon for the graduating seniors of Phi chapter. A menu with an Italian flair was enjoyed by all at Tortorici's, a French Quarter restaurant.

Proceeds from the Christmas Bazaar were dona ted in the form of a stereo to the Belle Chasse State School for Emotionally Dist urbed Children. We entertained a group of these children at a Mardi Gras party. Costumes, throws, and refreshments created a true carnival spirit! It's difficult to say who enjoyed it more-the alums or the kids!

After our annual Easter Egg Hunt in March we elected a new slate of officers. ' Gail Siciliano was elected as our new New Orleans Alums at Th eir Fren ch Quarter Flea Market

president with Jane Ramagos as our vicepresident. Carol Bandera became the new secretary and Jackie Belala took over the treasury. Marilyn Greene was named editor and Charlene Smart assumed the role of chaplain.

The Ponchartrain lakefront was the scene of the June gathering. Alums and their families enjoyed an all day picnic which ended after a refreshing treat of watermelon.

September brought a meeting bursting with activity! Initiation of new members topped the list, along with naming the Panhellenic delegates and a discussion of forthcoming goals for the chapter.

October and November flew by with plans for Founders' Day and Christmas.

A group of alums traveled to Hammond to be with Phi chapter at their banquet.

There the alums presented the chapter with two ceremonial robes and a white linen tablecloth. Expansion of collegiate chapters in Louisiana and the January luncheon were the main topics of the December meeting. The Christmas party was hosted this year by Gail Siciliano. A marvelous spread of food encouraged us to fudge on our diets! Our annual raffle of a case of liquor was held and awarded to Ann Marie Duffy. After the festivities, we all settled down around the tree, sang carols, and exchanged presents!

N.O. alums are now looking forward to another year of sisterhood in 1974!

~Norfolk ...

EnJ路oys Meetings Our "organizational" meeting in September was held at the home of Marilyn West with one of the largest number in attendance we have had. Following dessert, plans for another BeeLine Fashions sale and the Founders' Day luncheon were discussed .

October found us shopping in the relaxed atmosphere of Beth Harmon's home. Some of us found much more t han

55

we thought we could afford to buy, but we easily talked ourselves into it since it was for "such a good cause." (The sorority got a percentage of each item sold- the more we bought, the more money we made.) We also took orders for greeting cards, so this turned into a real ways and means meeting.

Hunger brings us to our next meeting in November at which we celebrated Founders' Day jointly with our Hampton area neighbors. After a delicious buffet at Bennett's Creek restaurant in Portsmouth, we held the Candlelight Service in commemoration of the event.

Hunger got to us again early in December when we had one of the two largest groups present at the Panhellenic luncheon at the Copper Kettle in Virginia Beach.

We're looking forward to a good new year full of fine things for everyone.

Prepares Projects for Children Has anyone seen a pilgrim? This question drifted through Helen Sours' home several times during our October meeting as we prepared calendars and other projects for the emotionally and mentally retarded classes at Haycock School in Falls Church. Everyone worked diligently to complete her project before leaving for the evening.

We opened the year with a covereddish dinner at the home of Luci Baldi.

Most of us "car-pooled it' to Luci's Maryland home and found double opportunity to reunite after the summer break.

Yes, the Northern Virginia Alums like to eat! In November we observed Founders' Day with dinner at Il Castello Restaurante in Annandale. Mary Charles Ashby, District III Vice President, was

56

the speaker and guest of honor. She presented a very clever AST revision of Lincoln's Gettysburg Address.

The annual Christmas party was held at the home of Charlotte Douglas in Fairfax. This year all gifts were hand made.

Naturally, there was much gaiety exchanged with the gifts.

The chapter anticipates an active and exciting spring. We look forward to seeing many sisters at Convention this summer.

Makes Puppets and Doll Clothes The Prince Georges-Montgomery Alumnae Chapter held its September meeting at the home of Geraldine Broglie.

Plans for the year were discussed informally and a schedule of future events arranged.

In October Betty Wilder was hostess for a meeting at her home. The guest speaker, Mrs. Mary Frances, described the work that she performs at a pre-school nursery for emotionally disturbed children. It was decided that, as a social service contribution, we would make doll clothes and puppets for the children.

Our annual remembrance of Founders' Day in November brought us together at Pat Linton's house where we enjoyed a luncheon featuring salads and desserts brought by the members. This was followed by the candle lighting service. We had as guest of honor our district president, Mrs. Mary Charles Ashby.

At the Christmas party in early December we exchanged gifts at Sharon Hylton's home, and worked on doll clothes and puppets for our social service project.

Our tentative plan for January is a dinner-theatre party with hu band or friends .

A ids Chapter Rush A business meeting and installation service began the fall activities of the Richmond-Petersburg Alumnae Chapter.

We met in the home of Janet Williams Lovern with Patsy Redfern as co-hostess.

The officers installed are: Jane Carden Ruffa, president; Esther Skrivseth Powell, vice president; Marsha Moorefield Holloway, secretary;Juanita Crumpler Baxter, treasurer; Patsy Redfern, chaplain; Virginia Smith Daniel, editor; Holly Woodford McDonald, historian and Ann Gray Cook, Panhellenic delegate.

In October a dessert and coffee party was held with Esther Powell and her cohostess Ann Staples. All of the known Alpha Sigma Taus in the area had been invited including many recent graduates from area colleges. We were happy to have so many new girls present and hope they will join our chapter.

As usual, the real highlight of the fall was our Founders' Day Banquet held at the Aberdeen Barn Steak House. Thanks to Patti Adkins and Janice Reese the tables were beautifully decorated with flowers, place cards and candles. Again we had several new faces present which added to the friendliness and joy of the occasion and we were proud and happy to initiate five new members. They are Alice Motley, Patti Bliley, Ruth Birchett, Pat Adkins and Linda Hoffman . The banquet was concluded with a candlelight service.

The Panhellenic fall luncheon in October was held at the Briarwood Racquet Club with the 1973 Tobacco Festival Hostess as guest speaker. Juanita Baxter and Pat Sours attended.

We like to keep in touch with our collegiate chapters and each fall we contact them to inquire how we might lend a helping hand to contribute something specific or send money. Longwood College's Zeta Taus need 200 name tags to ANCHOR

be used for rush parties. We are meeting Sunday afternoon December 2nd, to get these made and sent in time for January rush. We plan to send money to the other chapters.

Our social service project this year will again be giving aid to the emotionally disturbed children. Our assistance to these children in the past years has been most gratifying. Pat Sours, social service chairman, will be working with public welfare in deciding how and where this can best be accomplished.

Shepherdstown ...

Celebrates AST's 75th Miss Genevieve Pitzer invited us to her lovely home in the country at Gerrardstown, with the W.Va. mountains in the background, for our annual September picnic supper. This is always a fun time after our summer vacation for the girls to get together, and also a time to tie together loose ends in planning our years activities. We were very happy to welcome Elizabeth Davis Brokmeyer to our chapter, Libby having recently moved back to our area from New Jersey.

Since we are celebrating our 75th anniversary this year, we made plans to tie our celebration in with our annual Founders' Day Banquet in November. Our very special guests were Dr. Sara H. Cree, our beloved former adviser; and a very special friend of the sorority, Miss Molly Borwick, former Dean of Women at Shepherd College. Our Chi sisters also celebrated with us. Following dinner, a specially trimmed, tiered cake signifying our 75th year of our founding, was served . Miss Ruth Seibert conducted our impressive candlelighting ceremony. For a change of pace program, a local BeeLine fashion representative presented a fashion show of Fall and Winter clothing.

57

A fierce December snow storm arrived just two days before our scheduled Christmas Party, but some of the girls braved the icy roads and snow drifts and arrived at Nelda Williams home in Martinsburg to be ushered into a warm and festive atmosphere; thus, making the effort worthwhile. A very lovely lady, Mrs. Eunice Freeland, also braved the weather and brought lots of Christmas craft ideas with her, much to the delight of those present. Exchanging gifts and enjoying Nelda's delicious Christmas goodies rounded out the evening.

Future plans call for a spring social service project for one of our special education schools, and some joint meetings with our Chi sisters at Shepherd College.

Eight Is Great!

What is eight? It's eight Tri-City Alumnae who are happy to stand up and be counted! It's eight pairs of hands eager to work. It's eight years of lasting friendship. It's sisterhood alive!

September found eight heads together planning this year's calendar. Our plans always include our husbands and children, our community and Beta Chapter. Eight activities were planned to complete the years of '73.

Eight pairs of hands were busy in October, at the home of Fran Siem's, preparing invitations to AST's in our area. Our 75th Birthday Dessert on October 25 was a delightful evening. Old friends and new friends, multiplying our eight by three, gathered at Eileen Hamilton's home.

Happy, happy birthday, Alpha Sigma Tau! Coffee and doughnuts just couldn't taste better than at Homecoming. We were happy to join Betas in their newly decorated chapter room for this occasion.

Tri-City is lending a hand to Beta Chapter in re-establi hing some of the tradi58

tions which make sisterhood so very special to both actives and alumnae.

Mt. Pleasant was again the setting for our Founders' Day gathering. Alums from Tri-City and the Mt. Pleasant area met Beta Chapter for a smorgasbord dinner at Falsetta's . Especially enjoyed were the dinner, the company and the group singing.

Eight members of the Y.W.C.A. Fun Club were our guests at the first performance in the series of three Saginaw Symphony Young People's Concerts.

Transporting these handicapped girls, as well as donating food for their parties, camping, and other activities, has been our local social service project.

A table for eight was set at Sullivan's on November 28 for our "Mom's Day Out" luncheon. A business meeting over lunch. was followed by some shopping help for Santa at a near-by mall.

December 8 is a special day for our children. Santa's visit, presents, songs, treats and a cookie exchange for moms are highlights of the day.

Are you an alum in our area? Join us!

Eight is great, but nine would be fine!

Craft Conscious Alums The Wichita Alpha Taus began the new year with the installation of officers.

Officers for 1973-1974 are President, Karen Sutton Carr; Secretary-Editor, Wilma Hanlon Niemann ; Treasurer, Marsha Smith Wells; Chaplain, Caroline Somerfield Dawson; Panhellenic Representative, Pat Amsrud Shibley; and Substitute Panhellenic Representative, Melva Long Swanson.

In October, we shared our handicraft ideas for Christmas. Each of us made a beaded macrame keychain and gathered ideas for decoupaging, wall hangings, and Christmas ornaments. We returned home with a new interest in our artistic abilities.

November was our annual Founders' Day meeting and dinner. The night was highlighted by the singing of sorority songs and remembrance of college days at Kansas State Teachers College of Emporia .

Birth announcements were received by two of our sisters this fall. Barbara Quinn Bell and Sharon Kinzer Bezdek gave birth to boys, Tommy and Jeremy, respectively.

We wish all of you happiness in the new year.

A dds N ew Members Our fall schedule began with the organization of a fall reunion coffee, for Wilmington City Panhellenic. Alpha Sigma Tau Shelia McBride and Alpha Gamma Delta Joan Britt worked as co-chairmen.

Baked items were prepared, and a centerpiece of yellow roses was arranged by P riscilla Dunkleberger. It was held at the home of Ardith Huntsberger in Owls Nest, ANCHOR

Delaware. The past presidents of Panhellenic and the fifty year sorority members were honored.

Founders' Day was · held at the Surrey Restaurant. Two active members from Beta Beta joined us in our celebration.

Susan Miller, an alumna from Alpha Tau, recently moved into our area and joined the festivities. A candle lighting ceremony was conducted. During the ceremonies, Susan Miller, Nancy Davies, Delta and Joan Vannatta, Alpha Xi, were initiated into our alumnae chapter.

When It Rains It Pours!

You've all heard that famous old cliche, I 'm sure. But I certainly wish I had a picture to prove just how hard it rained on us in October as we slushed around under umbrellas and large sheets of plastic trying to hold a rummage sale in Marilyn Christy's back yard! Can you imagine the scene? For weeks we had worked so hard gathering things, placing advertisements, putting price tags on the items and finally the day arrived for the sale. We had just fini shed displaying our wares on large tables and suddenly t he heavens above unleashed and it relentlessly poured rain on us the whole day long.

Our tears went unnoticed as they mingled with the raindrops trickling down our cheeks as we scurried to cover things and disappointedly repack again. We figured that we were fizzled with the drizzle, but would you believe we were not t he only ducks out in t hat weather? Customers clad in rain gear began to arrive and peer under our plastic cloths and dig through our damp cardboard boxes and soon to our amazement, we had netted a fair profit. If an award could have been given for saleslady of the day, it most

59

certainly would have gone to Marilyn Christy for her undaunted and diligent efforts!

At our September business meeting we welcomed many new, but refreshing faces, to help plan the year's activities and get ready for t he rummage sale.

On October 8th it was off to Marilyn's home bearing our treasures for the coming sale and to plan for the national Founders' Day luncheon.

The luncheon was simply scrumptuous in every way. It certainly was enjoyable to get a chance to chat with some of the alumnae from other chapters we do not get to see often and to be enlightened by Marcia Ewart's presentation on consumerism and how the buyer should beware of such things as blank spaces and small print in contractual agreements. Special recognition was given to fifty year affiliation members- Emily Fitzgerald and Eva Covert.

Ypsilanti was our destination on November 12th and we held initiation ceremonies for our newest Alpha girls at the home of Anne Gruber. Juanita Bouffard, District I Vice-President, assisted in the ceremony as we welcomed Linda Baston, Ann Clark, Karon Horstman, Dinise Kosinki and Annette Matey to Alpha Sigma Tau .

December found us gathered around the punch bowl munching cookies and other holiday goodies with the girls of Alpha Chapter. For many years now we have enjoyed this traditional Christmas dessert and always look forward to this social gathering. Joan Carpenter's home was abuzz with activity that evening. We were happy to present the Alpha girls a large white tablecloth to be used for their formal activities.

We are looking forward to a pleasant '74 with many happy memories of '73.
