and parched corn shucks, the bounc
ing backward and forth of pink and
green ballons extended midway from
the ceiling — all these things remind
me of the two hours of fun and frolic
spent at the Alpha Kappa Alpha
Rush party on Saturday Oct. 6th,
which was in the form of a country
farm party.
The air was filled with the laughter
of the rushees who paraded into the
recreation room attired in the typical
farm dress. They were greeted at
the door by the Ivy Leafs who were
attired in pink and green, and in a
few minutes they were made to feel
that home in the country atmosphere
of the Recreation room. There was
dancing, and many games were play
ed. Miss Emma Howard won the
prize for exhibiting the best talent
from the state of Tennessee. The Ivy
Leafs were introduced to the rushees
followed by the Sorors of Alpha Pi
Chapter. Visiting Sorors were: Soror
Leadie Clark and Soror Norma Hull
Bland. Soror Marvel Beadles advisor
to the Chapter served as chaperon.
The clock was striking 10:00 o’clock
when the tired and exhauted rushees
thanked the Sorors for a lovely even
ing and sleepily made their departure.
