the event was a social function with all campus Greeks and other students joining in good fellowship. The effort proved quite successful and Delta Gamma earned enormous respect from other groups. In observance of Alpha's Founder's Day, the chapter put on a number of activities during Alpha Week (November 30 - December 5). Beginning with a showing of the movie "From Montgomery to Memphis" in tribute to the late Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., the week included a display in the University Center, the Alpha Cabaret, a smoker, and the Founder's Day Program. The Cabaret, a chapter first, was a semi-formal disco affair. Each brother was formally introduced and a special champagne toast was given in their honor. Also, special recognition was given to the sweethearts of Delta Gamma and the alumni brothers of Delta Theta Lambda Chapter. The turnout was outstanding and everyone had a most enjoyable evening. From the proceeds of this event, $25 was donated to a local orphanage and $75 to the NAACP. The Founder's Day Program was held by Delta Gamma and Delta Theta Lambda Chapters on December 5th in Bibb Graves Auditorium. The keynote speaker was The Honorable Brother Ronald Jackson, an attorney and state legislator from Birmingham. Brother Jackson's message was inspiring and perfect for the occasion. Following the program, Brother Jackson was presented a plaque from the chapter in recognition of his outstanding achievements. The program closed with the singing of the Alpha Hymn and the brothers then moved outside to the Alpha Shield and conducted a Memorial Service for brothers in Omega Chapter. The Sphinx/February 1977
