Mann and Lattimore, a Scroller of Pi Chapter, Morehouse College; Brother A. M. Shearin, Provincial Pole- march, Durham, N. C., who made his stay very short. Brother A. A. Alexander is an outstand ing contractor and engineer of the West. He is doing excellent work in the fraterwal field. Brothers C. Hawkins, Dunmore, W. D. Mann and Lattimore are members of Morehouse varsity foot ball team that challenged Smith’s varsity. The distinguished speakers of the eve ning were Bro. A, A. Alexiander, who made a very interesting and energetic talk about Fraternal Life; Brother F. L. Forbes, who made a short talk in behalf of Pi Chapter and Brothers T. S. Jacksofl" imd Powe who made short talks in behalf of Alpha Epsilon. Before closing the Grand Polemarch, A. A. Alexander, and the brothers of Alpha Epsilon discussed the conditions pro and con that existed among fraternity men. His final remarks will long be remem- bered. Initiation. On November 24, .the good brothers of Alpha Epsilon ushered five barbarians across the burning sands to the delphic shrine. The initiation was carried out in a most brilliant and impressive manner. Alpha Epslon now takes pleasure in in troducing the new brothers: C. C. De Vane, A. T. James, E. H. Jenkins, R. E. Jones and H. T. Thompson to the noble Clan. We do hope that these brothers will nistill new life into the Chapter- A Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to all the Fraternity men. — nal Council can begin and foster great en terprises that in the outcome will make a Greater Smith land a more amicable stu dent body. This is well worth thinking and dream- over as we enjoy with gusto the Yuletide season. May this dream be realized to such fruitful proportions that all doubts and misunderstandings will be lost in that great reward of endeavor, production, so much so that the past and its complex problems will remain lost forever in that great sea—oblivion. Basileus Steele represented Rho Chap ter at the Annual Conclave of the Frater nity in Indianapolis on December 22. As the mantle of time settles about us and we speed on to our respective destina tions, Omega pulls the curtain by wishing all Greeks a Merry Christmas and a happy return.

Camelot ,with plumes , ^nd, Ifghts For oftin thtb” The sirertt nights And music, wdnt to Camelot.” OMEGA PSI pm By A. E. Manley Time continues its unbroken flight. The holidays draw nigh; brothers' will turn their steps homeward and forget for a while the monotony of the regular class room grind. Keeping pace with the times Omega closes the year in triumph. Burning be hind all the bridges of disappointment, having conquered all obstacles, the pros pects for the incoming year are unusually bright. Standing as she does on a pedestal which has only been reached by dint of hard labor, and dogged consistency, Rho is well content. Turning her pages to la new margin Omega looks forward to an impor tant union that will be far-reaching in so far as it will provide common ground where differences may be settled and con structive work begun. This ' correlative enterprise is nothing less than an Inter-Fraternal Council. From all indications the time is naature for such action by the three fraternities. Matters of grave concern have over-balanced and we are leaning heavily on the shoulders of individuals in this Greek World of ours. Without such an organization the equili- brura is bound to remain unstable. Should we as Fraternity men continue to keep our eyes closed ? Hardly, when a little medi tation will reveal enormous benefits which can be derived from the realization of this budding flower. With no representative body of the masses in our midst a choice Inter-Frater. A most enjoyable entertainment was given on Friday evening, November 23, after the Smith-Mor'ehouse game, by Al pha Omicron. Chapter. Good music, gong and fair damsels enhanced the richness and beauty of the occasion. .4fter a season of hardships and peril, Bro. C. Randolph Taylor, as coach, led his team to victory on turkey day. Bros. J. 0. Elh's,' Jethro Henry, Hobson Biggs, La Grange Summersett, Willard Coleman, Caesar Walker and Gaither Lyerly were on the team this season. We are being represented, on the Glee Club by Bros. Jno. Wilson, Vance Chavis, Frances Cur-iy, James Young,-'" Baxter Lowe, Arthur Jones, Henri Marshall and Arthur Clement." ' We are delighted from-time to-time to have Bros. Thomas Watkins and Lord of the city with us. Recent visitors were Bros. Rev. J. Riley Dungee, N. L. Gregg, C. B.

If they continue their good work, they, no doubt, will be listed among the men of which the memory lingers on. Martin was given honorable mention on Bill Gibson’s All-American team. Brother Baker, whose leg was broken during the Morehouse game is improving nicely. We are expecting much from Skinner and Archie next sea- A FRIENDLY CHURCH TO ATTEND Greggs, Williamson and Griffin repre sented the Freshmen class in the debate last week against the Sophomores. They showed marked signs of becoming valuable men to the University. These men are great partakers in extra curricula activi ties. The Lampados Club has organized a basket ball team, and after the holidays will be ready to take on all comers.

With.-a heart for any.fate;. ■ Still achieving, still pursuing, .Learn .to, labor and . to wait.’’. The Lampados Club is continuing to up hold its three fold spontaneous insclina- tion, i. e., a desire to learn brotherly love and fraternization. These principles are carried out daily in a diligent way in or der that we might advance our purpose and cause the bigger Greeks to be proud of us. Our inability to surpass is keenly realized until we are the proud sons of the great Omega. At present we may be classed as living in a gregarious state. Our impelling force goes far beyond the satisfaction of being a “Lamp.” We are striving and traversing the straight path in hopes of meeting the approval of the ones who have confidence in us. On Friday, November 19, the Lampados Club of Rho Chapter, Omega Psi Phi Fra ternity entertained the brothers in Omega at the Swan Rest. Every one seemed to have enjoyed the evening. To add to the fair was the select group of lady friends of Omega. Jack Martin, a three letter man, along with Faulks, Williams and Baker, repre sented the “Lamps” very favorably on the gridiron this season.
