Si^ma Mu Has
Active Role In
Fund Cam])m»n
Sigma Mu Sigma’s membership
played a part this year in the .Ma.
mance County United Fund Drive,
and helped in a small way to reach
the Fund’s overall goal of $183,000.
The fraternity volunteered its
services to the Town and Country
Division early in the school year,
and went to work collecting pledges
and donations from citizens living
in Hon College and from members
of the Student Body.
Sigma Mu Sigma has undertaken
many projects during its existance
at Elon College since 1950. Later in
the semester, the fraternity will
publish the 1964-65 edition of the
Elon College Address Book which
will sell for twenty-five cents per
copy.
Last week Sigma Mu pledged
three new members for the Fall
semester. They were Jack Burtsche,
Greenvill, R. I.; Nimrod Harirs,
Elon College; and Randy Smart,
