Lambda

Back in the harness again after two wonderful (!!!) weeks of restful (???) vacation.

After ending 1948 with a whopper of a Christmas party, the Lambda men have embarked on some new projects around the house to celebrate and welcome properly, 1949.

The biggest thing is placing our own Hewey, Lionel Hewitson, in the limelight as the best candidate for King. We believed when we nominated Hewey that he would prove himself to be the cream of the crop through his personality, looks and athletic ability. No matter what the election results may be, Hewey hasn't let us down.

Our house manager, Paul Brennan, has decided to venture out into civilization to chalk his mark indelibly on mankind. (Got to stop sleeping on the dictionary. Besides it tends to make my sack a little lumpy.) Best of luck and success to you Paul, we'll miss you.

Jud Dulmage, successor to "P.J.", is carrying on in Brennan's footsteps n great style. The two front rooms really look great. Beaucoup improvement.

Hello to Al Coppersmith, newest resident of 30 Elm.

Thumper (who else but Drap?) has a mental battle with himself every afternoon. The controversal question: "Shall I study or flake out?" The answer is obvious, but if anyone wants proof, the immediate area around his bed is piled with Drab-flakes. (Oooooh, how bad can this get?)

Many thanks and congraulations to Alpha and Ago sororities for very fine shows at their annual open houses.

Just in passing, the Dulmage Richart semaphore system is really effective. It was tested and proved at Dartmouth game. Without it, our sign system never would have been synchronized. (That dictionary again.)

Congratulations and best wishes go to Bob Hess who came back from vacation a new man - an engaged man! Lucky girl.

Aw reservoir, silver plate. (Who said that?)
