The fes tivities were, as usual, quite energetic and the fraternal spirit was evident as Fiji's young and old stood together and sang fra ternity songs together. In the annual award ceremony, Robert Teittinen, '71, of -i/'eston, hass., was awarded the J. liason Hotchj:.iss Award given yearly to the senior who has contributed the most in his college career to the chapter. "Tate" has been especially active in the college committe structure and is I.F.C.

Tex also played on the Fiji-dominated rugby team and was a member of the Pledge Committee this year. The speaker for the night was Robert lobel, hent dtate '64, and he graciously obliged the festivities with a speech that was quite appropriate, however brief, his speech was well received and af terwards the night v/as completed by more fraternal spirit around our familiar bar.

Thfe past year has brought a large influx of interested, hard-working aliunni. It's probab ly as hard for me to express as it may be for you to realize what a tremendous boost your renewed and sustained concern ha,s given us. It's a shame that not all of you have been fortunate enough to wit ness the wonderful efforts of the old and new Chi association direc tors, the BOA, the Purple legion naires, and now mosee than ever be fore, the many untitled and unsung individuals xfho have worked so hard with and for the house. Let's hope that the ball keeps rolling. One way that every alumni, near and far, could help is to be a rushing assistant. If some young man in your area is coming to Un ion, plea,se tell him about Chi and that we v/ould- be anxious to meet him. But whether or not* this happens, please Keep in touch, we don't want to lose any of our great aluimii. In fact if you're ever in the area, for business or pleasure, please stop in - the' hospitality is truly piji's fin est. vi/e've got extra beds, the food is excellent, the opportuni- " ties for relaxation are endless, and you deserve nothing but the best. Je hope to see you soon.
