Zeta Alpha Phi On Friday evening, March sixth, the Zaps held their formal house party in Chapel Hall. Seemingly countless blue and gold streamers decorated the hall. At eight o'clock the familiar \toot toot\ of the Scarlet Serenaders was heard. All enjoyed themselves dancing. Shortly after midnight confetti and streamers were distributed and then the fun began. At one o'clock everybody adjourned to the Chapter House where a delicious little supper was served. Mr. and Mrs. Richard Walsh of Canton were the guests of honor, and Instructor and Mrs. Fred- erick W. Storrs were the chaperons. Howard Ganter, '23, Arnold J. Stalder, '24, and Conrad McEwen, ex-'26, were among those present. Towiisas Now that the school year is drawing to a close the Towiisas girls are working hard to bring their points up to a hundred. Sewing and other handi- work, hiking, and nature study are receiving a new stimulus during the spring weather. Those girls who were planning to get a great number of their points in snowshoeing, skiing and skating were handicapped by the early thaw. These girls will try to make up in other ways, for who wants to go without their Towiisas medal or block letter? Then there is the constant rivalry to see who will get the most points and so win the coveted gold medal. At each meeting a test is given on some phase of nature study to give more opportunity for winning these points. At various times members are allowed to conduct the meetings. Later in the year Indian legends and folk tales will be read. This will give credit both to the girls who read and to those who remember them for there will be a test on these later. Alpha Chi Omicron The first formal house party of Alpha Chi Omicron was held Friday evening, February thir- teenth. The hall was prettily decorated with Val- entine decorations of red and white streamers with hearts attached. Large red balloons of various shapes were suspended from the sides. The Northern Dansonians of Ogdensburg furnished the best of music and everyone entered into the spirit of the party. At nine o'clock Mr. Church ap- peared on the scene and took a flash light picture of all present. Besides Miss Chaney and Miss Southworth, Mrs. Caldwell and Mrs. Kip were guests. Mr. and Mrs. Smith were not able to attend on account of the illness of the former. At one o'clock the dancing ceased and the dancers betook themselves to the Chapter House where refreshments were served. After this the guests departed, all saying that they had had a most delightful time. Commencement Program April 3-7, 1925 Friday, April 3—Fraternity and Sorority Alum- ni Banquets.

Colgate Conquers Aggies The Varsity basketball team finished the season by playing the two hardest teams on its schedule— Colgate Frosh and the Morrisville Aggies. Colgate Frosh had a very powerful team but the Aggies held them to twenty-seven points while they scored fourteen. From Hamilton the Aggies went to Morrisville where they met the formidable Morrisville Aggie aggregation of basketeers. This game was very exciting from beginning to end. The third quarter terminated with the score tied at fourteen to fourteen, but Morrisville rallied won- derfully in the last quarter and won by the score of twenty-five to nineteen. The outlook for next year's team is excellent. Three letter men will most likely be back while another player, who is of Varsity calibre, will be available. A well balanced team is expected to be developed.
