·M ESSAGE FROM THE OFFICE. OF GRAND BASILEUS The problems of today are numerous bringing us together at all levels.

But as we join in our common action, goals and methods of

achievement, we know there is no instant answer.

We will need cour-

age to stand up to the task; judgement to percieve toward future goals building on mistakes rather than using destrictive force; integrity to believe in a princple and people seekng fulfillment of sacred trust building this faith on the book-the Bible, and being dedicated to our ideas and objectives-Finer Womanhood, Program Demonstrations, Good Human and Public Relations, Excellence in Education, Volunteer Inservice Project and Enhancing Religious Values. We began another boule term-reviewing our theme-"Mobilizing Task Forces for Total Community Action.'.'

To a deeper level of per-

formance we are continuing our ten-point program: J. Youth and adult programs, workshops and clinics. 2. Support of affiliate bodies. 3. Undergraduate Council enrichment. 4. Evaluating Internal Structure. 5. Updating Budget procedure. 6. Building improvement. 7. Action: Community Welfare Education Health Project, Local and National.

9. Reclamation: 45 days crash program. September, October, 1967. J 0. Education: Tutoral, scholarship and job place-

ment prospects. As we project "New Dimensions - The Forward Look," wo require new methods requiring new strength and new roles for Zeta Phi Beta Sorority. We, therefore, today of all days, rededicate ourselves to the service of mankind. The decision is yours. MILDRED C. BRADHAM

"May we give love, and show mercy and serve humbly to please God"-in the sacred hours of our lives may we be about our Father's work.

Zeta Chapters are reminded of two resolutions presented at the Boule for consideration: "That all municipalities in the, United States of America be required to judiciously follow all Federal criteria, policy and procedures in the implementation of all Urban Renewal Projects funded by the Federal Government . . ." "That we commend Congressmen for their untiring efforts on behalf of Civil Right; and, call upon those Federal agencies now responsible for implementation of already existing laws to live up to their responsibilities . . . " "That we cal) upon the Federal Government to accelerate and expand its enforcement policies of existing Civil Rights Laws; and, urge all Zeta Chapters to report to the compliance branch of the Civil Rights Commission on infringements found ...

NATIONAL COUNCIL OF WOMEN

IN SISTERLY LOVE

Mrs. Mildred Robbins, President of the National Council of Women, reports that she was enthusiastic not only about the Boule, but also about the kind of lively, knowledgeable and energetic women of Zeta. Thus, Grand Basilcus Bradham has received an invitation to Zeta to become an organization member of the National Council of Women of the United States. Mrs. Schary, membership chairman, second vice-president of N.C.W., says "it seems increasingly important that all women of goodwill be united, however diverse their activities and interests." A New dimension.

The version of "A Tribute To Our Founders" which was featured as a Responsive Reading for Founders' Day (see page 12, December, J 966, ARCH ON) was originally written as a poem by Soror Gwendolyn Hunter Ashley of Winston-Salem, North Carolina.

TRI-COUNTY FOUNDERS' DAY Beta Tau Zeta Chapter of Miami, Florida, served as hostess to Delta Epsilon Zeta, West Palm Beach and Delta Eta Beta, Fort Lauderdale in the annual tri-county observance of Founders' Day, at Scanda House Smorgasbord. Special guests were members of Phi Beta Sigma Fraternity, Amicae and Arnicette groups of the three counties. Highlights of the event were organizational reflections of over a decade of fellowship; and, "The Gauntlet," an inspirational message by Soror Ruth N. Polite.

A PLEA FOR SUPPORT This office, has received communications from TH NATIONAL NEGRO COMMU ITY AND TH ACHIEVEMENT CENTER, J 02 l You Street, N.W., Washington, D.C., soliciting funds to perpetuate the work of the Center. It is organized to promote the general welfare of underprivileged Negro Americans, both young and old; and, for any other American of similar circumstances, stimulating physical r:rncss and cultural interest for the general community.

A PAST GRAND IN FORT LAUDERDALE Dr. Deborah P. Wolfe, Past Grand Basileus of Zeta

GREETINGS FROM THE OFFICE OF YOUR FIRST ANTI-BASILEUS

It was wonderful seeing so many of you here in my very own hometown for our 1966 Boule, and you will never know how proud I am to have been one of the members of your host chapter. Every act of service for your comfort and enjoyment was a delight for each of us. May I express my appreciation to you for your faith you have expressed in me by permitting me to serve Zeta for another Boule term as First Anti-Basileus, I shall do my best to serve you well. Since the responsibility of my office is that of membership, l would like to "chat" a little about it. Zeta continues to grow and we look forward to the continuing of excellent quality of material which comes to us. Since tho 1965 Boule which met in New York, our sisterhood has increased by one thousand, twentythree (1,023) and since its founding we may very well state that spread over the United States and parts of Africa in the e forty-seven years, there have been some thirty thousand (30,000) Zeta women of the highest caliber of performance in the various fields of life. Ours is a challenge to see that this continues. Zeta mu t have the BEST, therefore, we must at all times exhibit that BEST.

SOROR ISABEL M. HERSON

Applications received by this office bearing the signatures of the Chapter's Basileus and/ or sponsor indicate that the Chapter has approved the prson for membership. This say that you are satisfied with qualities possessed by this person and that you are requesting national approval. Records should show and support your opinion. Before making a request for approval, however, thorough consideration should be given to the academic strength of the, applicant, whether average, under average, above average, superior or borderline, etc. What about indications of types of crvicc to Zeta and to the many areas of advancement throughout the country? lf these qualities arc of the status which should characterize Zeta women, do not hesitate to encourage membership. It is important that we keep Zeta strong with women who arc capable, but we cannot assure ourselves this if we do not support the tandards as set by the sorority or if' we arc not concerned about the qualifications or status of per ons desiring to become a part of our n ble organization. To our undergraduate Sorors, it is or great importance that you consider quality, cholarship along with talent and other traits of leadership ability when

in the process of determining who should be presented for membership. Zeta's growth and the caliber of her women depend upon choices made and we must depend strongly upon you for these choices. Keep Zeta growing, but in all of her growing, let there be Zeta women who can: Serve on the front lines of progress. Take a stand on issues with dept in their judgment. Offer something worthwhile to Zeta. Answer when breadth of knowledge is needed. Look and speak the part of a well informed person. Stand up when there is need to be counted. Represent her noble sorority with confidence, poise, and scholarly performance. This is our challenge, and as First Anti-Basileus, who has a great responsibility of making judgments based on the information you send in, I solicit your cooperation and together we will provide Zeta with the status of women-which she seeks.

"Building Bridges to Peace and Freedom" WILPE Theme

Amicae N ewsnotes

Amicae officially became a part of Zeta Phi Beta Sorority in 1948. Since that time, Amicae groups have been an asset to the Sorority in many ways. They have also been the cause of much concern.

SOROR JESSIE ARTEST BETA SIGMA ZETA CHAPTER TAMPA, FLORIDA

There arc many fine non-college women affiliated with Zeta through Amicae. We must continue to encourage these women to bring big dividends to Zeta, through service and public relations; yet, we must be mindful, that Amicae is an auxiliary to our noble sisterhood.

"Building Bridges to Peace and Freedom" was the theme of the Southern Regional Conference of the Women's International League of Peace and Freedom, which was held in Tallahassee, Florida, March 10, 1967.

An attempt is being made by this office to evaluate the present Arnicac program, in view of its strengths and weaknesses. 1t is the hope that the results will give positive directives for innovations in the organization.

During the two-day meeting, much information was given concerning the purpose, objectives and program of action of the organization.

Through this column, we hope to communicate with Sorors regarding Arnicae, report activities and spotlight Regional programs.

The purpose of WILPE, as stated by the U.S. Section President, Elizabeth Polster, is to work for the highest form of democracy by bringing together women of different political and philosophical tendencies united in their determination to study, make known and help abolish the political, social, economic and psychological causes of war, and to work for constructive peace.

CONG RA TULATIONS! To Arnicae groups who held successful Regional meetings this spring. The SPOTLlGHT is on the Southeastern Region! ln their last Regional meeting eighteen of the, nineteen groups were represented. Prayers were adopted for the opening and closing of their meetings. A memorial service was also adopted.

The president urged the participants to continue to strive toward the achievement of total and universal di armament, the abolition of violent means cf coercion for settlement of all conflicts, the strengthening of a world organization for the prevention of war, the institution of international law, and for the political, social and economic co-operation of peoples.

Let us know what you arc doing.

ANITA M.

ln order to promote these aims, WILPE speakers stressed implementing means for the removal of restrictions on freedom which impair human dignity, to establish by non-violent means conditions under which men and women can live free from fear of war and want, and of discrimination due to ex, race, color, ethnical or social origin, property, birth, or other status, political, religious, or other belief.

VOLUNTEERS NEEDED FOR SUMMER Grand Basileus Bradham has issued an appeal to all Zetas. You-as a Soror-can help! Can you give volunteer time? You are needed in Goldsboro, North Carolina, this summer! Can you finance, yourself one to four weeks in Goldsboro? Can you come to Goldsboro with help? Can you arouse a friend near Goldsboro- to, spend a few weeks with the project? Would you finance a helper? If you will assist in any way with the project, write to: Soror Geneva Hamilton, Coordinator, Zeta Phi Beta Sorority, Inc., OPERATION BOOTSTRAP, 516 E. Bunch Street, Goldsboro, North Carolina.

Zeta's quest to expand the community action program, Operation Bootstrap of Goldsboro, North Carolina, is fast becoming a reality. Under the dynamic leadership of Soror Geneva Hamilton and the volunteer groups of the community, the "pitcher" is being filled. Through its national Welfare, Education and Health Services project, Zeta Phi Beta Sorority has received a $44,000 grant from the Federal Government to pursue a specific phase of "bootstrap"-a follow-up of the demonstration family center which was conducted on an experimental basis last summer. This is the beginning!

Among the National officers present were: Soror Isabel M. Herson, First Anti-Basileus, who represented the GRAND BASILEUS, Soror Mildred Cater-Bradham; Soror L. W. Harrison, who has served as Grand Basileus, Executive Secretary and Regional Director and who currently serves as National Chairman of the Nominating Committee, and Soror E. M. Gilbert, Associate Editor of theARCHON, Zeta Phi Beta Sorority.

On Saturday morning, an Undergraduate, Hour, Soror Laverne Cooke, presiding, was held. A representative group of undergraduates exhibited their talents and portrayed enthusiasm for ZETA via noteworthy part ici pa tion.

An Executive Regional Board meeting over which Soror Lullelia W. Harrison presided, preceded the general session. HIGHLIGHTING the Conference was the message

ZETAS HONOR MRS. GILBERT AT REGIONAL MEETING THE ZETA LOVE FEAST honoring Soror Emma Marie Gilbert was a never-to-be-forgotten occasion and was a complete surprise to the honoree on occasion of the Southern Regional Conference. The luncheon was held in the beautiful Colonial Room of the famous Driskill Hotel, Austin, Texas. Tables were decorated with lovely centerpieces of blue and white, the sorority colors, and ceramic souvenirs artistically displayed the ZETA emblem, ZOB.

C Bradham and other National officers, and Nu Alpha Chapter, Houston. To Soror L. W. Harrison, Sorror H.F. Routte, Soror I. M. Herson, "Scrusc" Gilbert who presented his wire with a dozen red roses, Soror Lucille McGaughey whose LOVE MESSAGE encouraged her to "redouble efforts to better serve ... " Soror Thelma Y. Thomas for presiding, members of the local AKZ Chapter and all Chapters that worked so tirelessly in making the affair a memorable one.

Soror Thelma L. Thomas, Associate Regional Director, Zeta Phi Beta Sorority, presided over the impressive and well-planned program. Soror Lucille McGaughey, Regional Project Director of the sorority, was introduced by Soror Nancy Jernigan. Sorer MeGaughey spoke of the occasion as a most exuberant one to "feast on ZETA love," one which afforded an opportunity for ZETAS of Texas and Louisiana to display three of our major loves-one of which is to "show our LOVE for each other because the name ZETA PHI BET A SORORITY stands for sisterly love."

Others who participated on the program were: Mesdames Gladys Robinson, B. D. Jones, Rowena G. Jackson, Dorothy Powell, Hazel F. Routte, Regional Director, who made pre entations on behalf of the Chapters in the Southern Region and Recognitions by Soror L. W. Harrison, Past Grand Basilcus, former Regional Director, who organized Nu Alpha Chapter al Texas Southern University, Houston. Soror Margie Jones thrilled the group as she ang two numbers. Soror Virgie M. DeWitty who spoke of her love for the honoree through the years, referred to their early experiences in school and to their "parents whose careful guidance paved the way for days like these." Soror DeWitty's words of warmth and appreciation prefaced the rendition of "You've Got to Get a Glory in the Work You Do" which she dedicated to the honoree.

She continued, "ZETAS has a lot to be proud of. Our Five Pearls had a vision and a definite reason for organizing our sorority on the campus of Howard University in 1920. The young men, PHI BETA SIGMAS, who wanted them to be called their SISTERS saw in them something that was pure, something that was different from the other young ladies on the campus. The tremendous growth of ZETA could not have been achieved without the efforts of our devoted leaders and sisters."

Many useful and lovely gifts were given the honoree. A delicious menu which consisted of fruit salad, rock cornish hen, rice dres ing, a paragus, baked squash, hot buttered rolls, tea, coffee and lemon cake was served under the capable supervision of Brother Theodore Youngblood.

Sorer Gilbert paid tribute to the FIVE PEARLS (the Founders), the National President, Soror Mildred

REGIONAL

SPOTLIGHT

REGIONAL DIRECTOR'S MESSAGE I greet you today with sisterly gratitude and deep humility. My gratitude is extended to each of you for your loyal and sisterly love and humanity toward the efforts that I have put forth to serve you. The most recent addition to our roster is Zeta Phi Zeta, Alexandria, Louisiana, which is represented at this conference. Zeta Kappa Zeta, Tyler, Texas which had been dormant has been reactivated and i moving forward rapidly. At the same time we· were able to inject enthusiasm in the undergraduate chapter, Delta Alpha, at Texas College. Among the undergraduates my report is not quite so good, but we have the newest undergraduate chapter Lambda Gamma, Lake Charles, Louisiana. I was very pleased with the membership and activities of Theta Chapter, Wiley College, Marshall, Texas, which I visited recently. The possibilities of establishing new chapters in the far western part of our region, of the re-activation of campus chapters which are in complacency and of reclaiming floating Sorors are our main target for this Boule term. Every Zeta should concern herself with these objectives. Our theme for the year "New Dimensions-The Foryard Look," is a challenge to each of us. Everything around us is going through a period of change, internal and external changes. We must broaden our services to incl udc more people and to satisfy greater needs. We must plan our activities with more sincerity of purpose; we must extend our giving of our time and our money to foster this forward look. We must strive diligently to avoid being pushed into the background by the other women who are joining ranks to foster the ideas and ideals upon which Zeta was founded. You and l mu t realize that many of these changes of which l speak must first take place within the individual. How well read arc you? How much in-

formed about today's events are you? What have you done lately for self improvement? Are you clinging to traditions at home, in sorority meetings and elsewhere? Traditions are good, for the present is built on the past; but, if one does not accept changes, one cannot expect to keep abreast of the times. I urge you, then, to look at our local chapters; think seriously of our national structure; and, take a forward look at what our demands will be for the, next half century. Yes, we can be proud of nearly 50 years of growth and successful activities, but we must prepare ourselves now to move in other directions and to move more rapidly, if we, are to hold on to what we have attained. National fees have been raised to $15.00. They will probably go higher. Special taxes of $50.00 are being asked for, so why not include this in your yearly budgets. The forward look local chapters can no longer operate on $1.00 per month. Hostesses cannot serve the chapter for $10.00 The day of the black dress for services has passed. One hundred dollar scholarships do not go very far these days. We are living in an era of the "New Frontier" and the frontiersman is forever forging ahead. Finally, let us look forward to the day when additional bridges-new Zeta chapters of sisterhood, love and finer womanhood-are constructed that will serve the genuine interest of this our great sorority-ZETA PHI BETA.

Also, later Friday evening, the Pan-Hellenic Council entertained with a lavish ball in the, Golden Gateway Holiday Inn Ball Room. Saturday morning's program was most interesting. The Tihd Anti-Basileus, Sorer Mary V. Scott of Little Rock, Arkansas, presented the Undergraduates who gave the conference their ver ion of a "Mock Rush Party." This was the beginning of great accomplishments for the undergraduates as they will exhibit many programs in the very highest fashion carrying out all that Zeta stands for. Saturday noon made a climax to an interesting morning program as many Zetas embarked on a sight-seeing bus touring the most outstanding scenic points to Lookout Mountain. A closed banquet was held in the Georgia room on Saturday night with the presentations of the following trophies and awards: A traveling cup was presented to Associate Director Ruth Powell of Alabama for the largest State Representation.

We find ourselves an organization with membership of widely divergent intellectual abilities, cultural and economic backgrounds and personal interests. We find old values about fraternities and sororities seriously being questioned by today's youth. Every human enterprise, including sororities, requires organization and administration. Organization is the process (or results) of arranging interdependent clements into a functional or logical whole. Administration is the supervision, planning, direction, organization, control and regulation of the objectives of the sorority. Evaluation is the process of ascertaining or judging the value or amount of something by careful appraisal. Administration has two main facts-structure and function. Administration exists and acts through a structure involving the duties and relationships of the board, presidents, major administrative officers, program directors and committees. The ideal optimal development requires that all individuals who have a stake in a given enterprise share in the planning and in the carrying of it into effect. Good administration is a highly integrated process of formulating purpose , policies and procedures and executing them with intelligent interpretations in application to specific situations. lt involves the efficient utilization of the general and specialized knowledge available in the personnel, under the leadership of the chief administrative officer. Assignments should be in terms of personal capabilities for it is men (women) and not organizational charts or theories that do the work This leads us to the inevitable question: What is leadership? How do we develop it? Who is a Leader? Leadership is a social phenomenon in which a group, or aggregation of individuals accepts and acts upon the idcans of one person. Despite the variety of leadership, it is possible to make some generalizations which will hold true for many leader . QUALITIES OF LEADERSHIP I. Meekness. 2. Knowledge of the organization. 3. Servitor or ono who performs servile tasks. 4. Faith in people. 5. Greater loyalty to the common good. 6. Prophetic. They do not call a meeting and sit silent and "democratic" while the group decides whether they decide to do nothing. All successful leaders seem to be articulate. They must have a faculty f r' inspiring their followers with the spoken word. How do we develop leadership? Most college authorities agree' that the lasting benefits of a college cducati n extend considerably beyond training in the tradi-

tional academic disciplines. It is widely held that the impact of this experience is manifested in the students' character traits, his attitudes, his value as a citizen, and in many other non-intellectual aspects of his behavior. lt is also widely recognized that extra-curricular activities may make valuable contributions to these non-academic areas of development. At the undergraduate level there is a need for a marked increase in personal contact between faculty and students in leadership activities and the need for increased emphasis on communication skills, particularly those of oral expression. It is also highly desirable that faculty members capable of producing a forceful effect should be encouraged to multiply their influence through appropriate participation in chapter activities. The modern day administrator should broadly endorse participation and reject traditional, autocratic concepts of leadership, There are two models of developing leadership-Human Relations and Human Resources. 1 should like to discuss the latter of these two because it is the more difficult, yet has the most promise for today's youngsters. This model implies that control is often most efficiently exercised by those directly involved in the work in process. The crucial point at which this model differs dramatically from other models is in its explanation of the causal relationship between satisfaction and performance. Improvement results from creative contributions which each member is allowed to make within the group. It suggests that leadership emerges as they play more and more meaningful roles in decisive making and control. While good leadership is needed, it ns needed only of some of us. In any case, these are the qualities that enrich the lives of very private people. They are not wasted qualities. We need the many who are happy and satisfied to live private lives and support good leadership. We need the quiet members in any group-the one who backs a good proposal and is alert to what the leader requires if good results are to be obtained. He is just as important as the up-front leader. ln any cnterpri e we require quiet work, warm appreciation, willingness to attend to detail, willingness to wait, the personal security that makes back-biting and gossip distasteful-al! the qualities which provide the main part of good work and accomplishment. Also a good follower is not easily pushed around. He has his convictions and his standard . He resists manipulation. He discriminates between the good and the bad. Without good followers, good leadership could not exist. Leadership, then, has many dimensions and facets. The up-front leader may be the most noticed, the most appreciated and the most envied, but his role may not be the most important one. In any group activity there is need for all capacities and talents, and the talent for conspicuous leadership is but one.

Lewis, sponsor of Lambda Chapter, Allen University, attended the Pan-Hellenic Council Summit Conference held in Atlanta, Georgia, in January.

Traditional and Ceremonial Recognition of Finer Womanhood Celebrated by Mu Zeta Chapter of Baton Rouge and Beta Alpha Chapter of Southern University Baton Rouge, Louisiana

In spite of the yet-to-be-remembered meticulous planning, arranging, preparing, etc., for the annual Boule, the chapter carried out its annual required obligations and activities. Culminating the year's activities was the chapter's observance of Fine Womanhood Week which was extraordinary and unique in that the activities were expanded and continuous though interrelated and represented giant efforts in re-emphasizing, reexamining and extending the purposes and objectives of the 1966 National Boule theme: "The ChallengeMobilizing Task Forces For Action In Community Dccvcloprnent Programs." Task Forces For Action In Community Development Programs." Serving as General Chairman for all the varied activities was Soror Isabel M. Herson, First Anti-Basileus,

under whose leadership committees were set up and under whom they worked. Important in Mu Zeta's planning for such activities, Beta Alpha Chapter of Southern University was uniquely involved and encouraged to participate in all such organized planning to carry out the National Boule 1966 Theme and therefore Beta Alpha cooperated beautifully in bringing to focus public attention on the observance. The beginning activity consisted of a closed initiation and Pledge Service under the capable and efficient leadership of Soror Gladys B. White, 1st Anti-Basileus and Dean of Pledgees of Mu Zeta Chapter. Soror Leola Young served as chairman for the second function which was the Workshop held at the Student Union Building on the campus of Southern University.

Combined with this• worship was the recognition and wording of citations to representatives of Girl Scouting, Community Association for the Welfare af School Children, Blunden Home and Young Women's Christian Association, in keeping with Zeta's National Thome: 1966: "The Challenge-Mobilizing Task Farces for Action in Community Development programs."

The Public Program and Worship Service was combined under the illustrous Basileus Soror Netterville who gave direction to this endeavor. This occasion wa held at Wesley Methodist Church in Baton Rouge where Dr. L. L. Haynes, Jr. serves as Minister. Grouped together in a colorful scheme, Zeta Sorors exhibited a lovely picture and impression as they seriously worshipped together with other members of the church. As an illustration and demonstration of Zeta's 1966 theme which encourages the mobilization of task forces for action in community development programs throughout the United States, Mu Zeta and Beta Alpha Chapters of Zeta Phi Beta Sorority, Inc., gave recognition and support to continuous services of those agencies for the development of the City of Baton Rouge in their respective programs by presenting citations to representatives of the following: (I) Girl Scouts; (2) Community As ociation for the, Welfare

of School Children; (3) Blundon Homc,and (4) Young Women's Christian Association. Significantly, Community Services extended throughout the period of celebration and ob crvancc under the capable and organized leadership and guidance of Soror Grace S. Jackson. Formerly, and throughout the years, Mu Zeta Chapter has consistently initiated efforts to help patients in the Greenwell Springs Hospital; this was an annual project wherein small packages of joy were prepared and delivered to patients-cookies, candy, toilet a . tides and the like. This year, Mu Zeta is quite proud to be honored with a request coming from this Hospital Administrative Staff-asking that the Chapter adopt a special family and finance their visitation, and travel expenses so that they could come to the city to sec their father who i a patient at Greenwell Springs Hospital. The Sorority gladly provided funds for this family to come and tay two days so that they

could once again be together and enjoy the family atmosphere. Since before the annual pronjcct took place on Mother's Day usually, the sorors were particularly delighted that s rvice could be rendered at any and all times during the year. Inclusive in sorors community efforts were also the visitation period held with incapacitated sorors-not limited to the visit-but extended felicitations in the form of floral arrangements, potted plants, gifts and/or other small needed items. Shut-in visited were not necessarily limited to sorors but other chosen ones for whom Mu Zeta desired to adopt as permanent projects. For instance, senior citizens were included wherein literature was read and explained dealing with specific information concerning the aged such as mcdicarc and pensions.

Soror Jackson constantly kept in the forefront the idea of giving of one's self and this served as an important factor in the cooperative efforts of the committee. Pursuing further this idea, nursing homes were visited, recreation programs for juveniles established and civic projects were assisted by joining other groups in bringing about more acute consciousness of communities in their keeping clean and beautifying surroundings-reaching outlying communities as well where people live under deprived and neglected conditions. Considerable time is given , II during the year to assist programs of the "Y", Blund n Orphanage of' Baton Rouge and the Anna T. Jordan Recreational Organized programs. During the observance of Finer Womanhood Weck,

the community services rendered were tcpped up and more momentum gained in providing the necessary help in areas of need. Because of the widespread help which is given in this area, the sorority considers this one of their most effective and serviceable areas and have given particular emphasis to it during the celebration. Mu Zeta's realization of the impact of specitl recognition for assistance given over the years to the Chapter in their activities by supporting husbands, and the impact of strengthening the newer links in the chain of organization, conceived the idea of a special entertainment for the husbands of Zeta Sorors and

Zeta women. Particular reference is made to the untiring efforts of the brothers and husbands in preparation for the 1966 International Boule held December 26-3 l at Jack Tar Capitol House, in the heart of the Capitol City. This most delightful and worthy activity was chaired by Soror Mildred Harris. The overall program during the Finer Womanhood Week reflected a projection of intensive rededication and the rendition of greater services which projection comprises the aims and purposes of the motivational theme: "The Challenge-Mobilizing Task Forces for Action in Community Development Programs" and this challenge on the local scene, on the State level and Nation-wide.
