This fail the Beta Gamma Chapter hosted it's first philanthropy in three years with the Phi Gamm Sumo Slam. The Philanthropy, in.which combatants donned Sumo suits and attacked each other, served to benefit the Candle Lighters of Northwest Ohio. The Candle Lighters are an organization that gives money to children who are suffering from cancer. Wally Lanci, basically working without any guidelines to follow, oversaw the running of the philanthropy, which raised $700.
