SORORITY SISTERS
SHARE SECRET
A still-secret engagement, the ,
secret of 33 members of Theta
Chapter of Beta Sigma Phi so
rority, was announced at this
week’s meeting. The engagement,
and ways in which the organiza
tion may build a club treasury,
were the two main topics of dis
cussion at the Monday meeting
of the sorority, according to Presi
dent Dorothy Saxton.
Dana Nieman, head of the ways
and means committee, listed
three possible methods of adding
money to the club’s bank account
immediately. She suggested a
cake walk, a box social, or a trav
elling basket.
Sorority members decided to
adopt the plan of the travelling
basket. That is a plan in which a
member wraps an unknown ob
ject, places it in a basket and
passes it to her neighbor to pur
chase. The neighbor must buy
the “pig in the poke,” and in
turn prepares a hidden gift for
the next girl on the list to buy.
"he proceeds go to the club treas
ury.
Hazel Bryant was appoir>+eH
chairman of a committee asked
to meet with the Palmer Library
Association and request ways in
which the sorority can assist the
Library with its problems.
It was announced that mem
bers of the social committee and
the ways and means committee
will meet next Monday evening,
to plan the year’s calendar of
events. That calendar will be
presented at the next regular so
rority meeting, to be held on
Sept. 18.
Grace Cates and Dorothy Hur
ley were hostesses for this Mon
day’s meeting. They served a va
riety of decorative bridge sand
wiches for refreshments.
