The proceeds went towards our two (2) fivehundred dollar Scholarship Awards for scholastic and athletic achievement. The two a w a r d recipients were Jeffrey B. Ross and Albert Robinson, Jr. Both are from Franklin High School and are continuing their education in college. In April, the Brotherhood escorted their wives and guests on an evening of dining and a Broadway play in New York City, as a small token of our appreciation for their support throughout the year. Some of this year's fiscal events include: 1) November — T e n n i s / D i s c o Party; 2) December — Second Annual Founders' D a y Banquet with the underg r a d u a t e c h a p t e r , a l o n g with a Christmas party; 3) February — Alpha Unity Affair; 4) Spring — Mardi Gras Party; and 5) a June Scholarship Dance. We hope that this year will be as successful, inspirational, and prosperous as last year. This is not the last you've heard from us. Like all Alphas, we're Moving O n w a r d and Upward Towards the Light.

Greetings . . . from the Brothers of Theta Psi Lambda, located in Somerset, N.J. It's been a while since you've heard from

us, but that does not mean we have not been busy keeping up our responsibilities as Alphamen. Last year, we began our fiscal year by sponsoring a T e n n i s / D i s c o Party in November. O u r wives and lady friends prepared refreshments for this successful and prosperous event. O u r community activity for the Fall involved distributing food baskets, prepared by the Brothers and their wives, to needy families in the nearby communities. During Founders' Week we united with the undergraduate Brothers of Delta Iota Chapter (Rutgers University) and re-enacted the First A n n u a l Banquet (held by our Founders at the Masonic Hall on October 30, 1906). O u r menu consisted of the following: Cream Tomato Soup Salted Wafers Roast Beef Hashed Brown Potatoes

and the week ended with a stepshow on the 7th. For Christmas, Delta Iota visited the New Brunswick Home for Battered Wives and an orphanage in the New Brunswick area. Fruit baskets and toys were given in hopes of spreading a little joy during the Christmas holiday. The Brothers of Delta Iota will strive to provide service to all in the name of Alpha Phi Alpha.
