1940 Cedrus Yearbook

ALPHA THETA TAU Another successful year has passed into history for the Alpha Theta Tau. Besides our regular meetings, we have enjoyed several socials. Early in the year we had a covered dish supper with Janette Neal; urn-urn! What food; what cooks! Here we made plans for the year's work. The outstanding activity of November was the Harvest-Time Party. Active members, alumnae, rushees and friends all joined in the fun. The Gym was quite effectively decorated with fodder and pumpkins. A rail fence set apart the table games from the dances and folk games. The balloon dance took the ''cake.'' What a time each girl had to keep her balloon away from those tramping feet! Old friendships were renewed and new ones made on this night. The December meeting was held with Jane Mills who kindly invited the Sorority and rushees to her home for the Christmas dinner. Gifts were exchanged; then the group went carol singing. In January we helped Janette Neal and Mae Stebbins celebrate their birthdays. Did you know theywere twins? Katherine Randall opened her home for the pledge service the next month; later we attended a B.B. game. In April we worked on the Sorority album with Doris Ramsey. What interesting memoirs pictures are! More good times are being planned for May, including a Cedar Day luncheon. During the year our ranks were swelled to fourteen and what a time the pledges had initiation week. To our active sisters continuing at C.C. we hand the torch and cry, "Carry it on high!"
