"PIG DINNER RESCHEDULED FOR MARCH 28"
We were very disappointed to have to postpone the first annual Norris Pig Dinner,
but we were forced to do so at the last minute because the Archon who was to be our
guest speaker, found he was unable to attend because of his health. The Pig Dinner,
however, has been rescheduled for Friday, March 28, at the Pickwick Inn starting at
6:15 P.M. We urge you all to attend and ask that you complete the form on page 2
and forward to us in the self-addressed stamped envelope. We will also, as previous
ly planned, be holding the "retreat" to try and establish better understanding of
the Fraternity, and also better relations between our alumni and ourselves.
