First, let me tell you of the house party at Alamitos Bay near

Los Angeles, at which Lambda and Sigma joined forces to about

twenty strong. The girls who were present tell us it was a huge

success and are never done talking of their two weeks of continual

fun. We hope these summer house parties will continue because

they are splendid opportunities for Lambda and Sigma to become

better acquainted, as well as for rushing prospective freshmen, and

the general good times.

   As usual everyone was glad to be back, and fourteen strong, we
commenced rushing with a w i l l . I t has been a strenuous month,
of teas, dinners, and drives, but we feel well satisfied so far and
hope to be able to say the same on bidding day next Saturday.
Our alumnae have been more than good in helping us out. A t
present we have Lu Beeger. '10, and Ella Cates, ex-'13, with us,
and several San Francisco alumnae have asked to have entire charge
of our last date. Sigma also has shown her sisterly spirit, and
last week end we had Jeannette Miller, '11, Elaine Standish, '12,
Emma Black, '13, and Charlotte Cowie, '13, with us.

   Besides rushing we have been busy with plans for our new house.
The plans themselves please us greatly, and with a little more
money, we shall be ready to break ground. With Lambda in a
house of her very own—well, just watch her.

   As for committees, Ruth Crippen, '12, made the senior Jolly-Up,
Lois Walton, '12, the Junior Jolly-Up, and Helene Montague, '13,
the Junior Opera.

   The semester is young, so we have not had many college functions
as yet. The first play "The World and His Wife" produced by
Sword and Sandals, the dramatic society, comes off Friday evening.
Football is becoming an engrossing topic as the time for the big
game with California approaches.

   Lambda sends greetings to her sisters far and^ near and wishes a
most successful year for each and all of the chapters of Alpha
Omicron Pi.

   Since writing this bidding day has come and gone, and we are
