Kappa Sigma Spiring Shindig
Hailed Success by Visiting Romans
A night of revelry in a Roman
Court complete with dancing girls,
gladiators, and indivdual harems
was in store for the Kappa Sigs
at tiheir annual spring party held
at the Country club on April 5.
The unique theme, which in-
volved each of the Sigs bringing
two or three dates to comprise'
his “harem”, was based on the
customs which Were a part of the
Roman Empire.
A variety of costumes ranging
from handmade versions to im-
ported, rented ones adorned the
more than 30 Sigs and their1
many dates. The higih' point of
the evening was the awarding of
the laurel wreathe to the best
dressed men and woman. Ooe-
tumes were judged by Mr. J. F.
Valone, Mi*. Ralph Jottes, end
Mrs. Ruth Morgan Ferguson.
Mrs. Ferguson crowned Lois
Muckelroy and Brad Miller as
the best dressed Romans by the
/power “vested in her by Rom©
and by Jupiter.”
A program was then presented

Of the MSF and Ellsworth Peter-
son who was elected music chair-
man.
The baseball team, under the
capable coaching of Rev. John

games. The boys are looking for-
ward to the rest of the schedule.

first win.
All the boys gave Mrs Vaughn a
hearty good wish and hoped that
she and her boarder, Vince, spent
tftjtflEt holiday. [With the end of
school but a few weeks off, atti-
tudes are faulterittg, And certain
determinations .are disappearing
however, Ra doesn’t think any-
thing will collapse until final fond
farewells resound.
