CHEESECAKE EGG—Shown above are two rather appropriate com
binations for this coming weekend. Vivian Tonn, ACC coed Fresiiman
from Durham, would make any sleepy carrot wide-awake in hope of
welcoming this Easter bunny. Of course the Easter egg behind the

No Money For Co-Op (Jahinct
Phi Sigma Tau, the oldest Greek
'otter organization of Atlantic Chris
tian College, has officially been ac-
jepted as a pledge group of Sig-
m-; Sigma Sigma National Sorority.
After extensive research with mem
ber sororiies of the National Pan-
hellenic Conferencf’ the sisters
signed an official petition to Sigma
'it’ma Sigm;i on .January (!, 1905
The objective was to se<>k n.itional
sorotities sv'th th;> same or similar
ideals as tiiose of Phi Sigma Tau
•:ind of t!;e collejre. After infpiTogat
ing a number of national groups

edge of national sorority organiza
tions, the delegate from Sigma

which is presently located in Dallas.
Texas, visited Phi Sigma Tau and
the petition was signed.
Tri Sigma was founded in Farm-
ville, Virgin'a, at I.oiigwood Co!
lege. Since its beginning ^n 1!!98.
Sigma Sigma S'ig?na has initiated
well over 22,000 young women into
its sister' oo;i. There are chapter.^
ill! over tlie United Stales w'th the
nearest being the Garnin:i Petn
Chapter of East Cai'ol na College,
which was clMisen the tliird l)e%(
Tri Sigma chapter in the nation
l:isl year.
As its philanthropy, Sigma Sigma
“^igma has establi.shed the Kobbie
Page Memorial Fund with its pur
pose being to increase the '■tor” of
knowledge concerning polio and
tiiereby a'd in its cure or t'-eat
ment. Among the grants made from
!!iis Fun:! wa; one to hela f'nanco
; the Salk Vaccine testing program.
I The 195(5 National ('onvention,
which is the ruling body of the
national organization, directed that
contributions from the Memorial
Fund be given to Ihe North Caro
lina Memorial Hospital in Chapel
Hill, North Carolina, for aid in the
rehabilitation and convalescence of
children patients. Accomplishments
include an intercommunications sys
tem whicii carries music and sto

and a Children’s Room designe<i tor
the play thereapy program being de
veloped by the pediatrics staff whose
graduates go all over the country.
Late in February of this year,
Phi Sigma Tau confronted the
Board of Trustees of Atlantic
Christian College expressing their
desire to become affiliated with a
national sorority. In doing this. Phi
Sig has paved the way for other
groups on this campus who desire
investigation and possible national
affiliation. Again they have proved
to be pioneers among the Greeks
as they are the first on this campus
to pledge a national sorority.
Fall Rush 1965 will be carried
out under the name of Sigma Sigma
Sigma. Upon reaching its stipulated
quota requirement Phil Sigma Tau
will officially begin its pledge train
ing. After completing the pledge
training the local sorority will be
in.slalled as the Gamma XI chapter
of Sigma Sigma Sigma National
Sorority.
