We have never backed down from a challenge, nor have we ever "thrown in the towel." Isee the younger members and believe this tradition will go on. Lately, every member of lota Sigma has been active in rushing quality men for Phi Gamma Delta. Thanks to the great efforts of our rush chair man, Michael Wiatrowski, who took over the job with great spirit. Good job, fellas! A special thanks goes out to all of the graduate bothers who have JAMES TWITCHELL donated money toward the house renovation project. It is a great asset to have such a beautiful house. Thank you, brothers. Oh, yeah! Let's not forget about those grades in case you were wondering. All of the brothers have pulled together and raised our ranking from seventeenth to fifth among fraternities, but we're not stopping there. We will strive harder to be number one next time. Finally, I would like to congratulate Jeff Leistner for being elected as lota Sigma's newest cabinet member. Jeff is currently Correspond ing Secretary. Good job, "Little L." I hope to see everyone back for Homecoming. It will be a great time! THE SYCAMORE FIJI •FRIENDSHIP. ..
