Farce Day Is Pi Phi Tradition
***
[This is another in a series of articles by the Daily Kansan to acquaint the campus with the various organized houses, their members, officers, and histories.]
- * *
Every pledge has her day and it is "blue Monday" for Pi Beta Phi actives during Farce day which comes as a climax to Ring Ching week!
As a culmination of this week in the spring when the pledges assume the duties and offices of the chapter, activities and pledges exchange places and actives actually obey the "lowly pledges."
Pi Beta Phi, Kansas Alpha chapter, was the first sorority at the University and it was founded in 1872, just five years after the national founding at Monmouth, Ill. Since then it has become an international sorority with 90 chapters and more than 38,000 members.
President of Mortar Board, Homecoming queen, president of Women's Pan-Hellenic council, two cheerleading positions, and vice-president of the Greek Women's party are among the honors held by Pi Phi this year.
In 1942 Pi Phi made physiotherapy its national war project and more than $10,000 has been contributed to this fund.
As a memorial to its founders, Pi Phi established in 1912 a Settlement school in the southern Appalachian highlands. This school has grown until it now has five hundred students and a full grade and high school course.
Pi Phi colors are wine and blue; flower, the wine carnation; and pin, the arrow.
Mrs. Dean Alt is the house mother.
Barbara Prier is president of Alpha chapter; Other officers include;
Patricia Williams, vice-president;
Sally Fitzpatrick, secretary; and Ann Newcomer, treasurer.
