Kappa Eta Kappa, Chi O Dance To Valentine Theme
St. Valentine hit the jackpot on the Hill this week-end, with parties in his honor around every corner.
Last night Kappa Eta Kappa's prettied up the chapter house with Valentine decorations, and danced to recorded music.
Chi Omega's whirled to Clyde Bysom's band. Among their Valentine decorations were Valentines showing the profiles of various members.
To the left we spy two charming capeaux, both suitable for fall, spring, winter and summer attire, providing of course, you don't live at the South pole.
The girls initiated into Alpha Chi Omega yesterday were honored last night with a dinner in the Union ballroom.
Other than that, everybody was idle except for worrying about how many monogramed hearts to buy for Valentine's day.

Miller Hall Is Prompt, Sig Alph Late With Party
It was all because of over-enthusiastic freshman basketballers that the Sig Alph party didn't get a running start Friday night until after 10 o'clock. The basketball game ran into two overtime periods, many Sig Alph's stayed to the end, while their dates stomped the halls in their formals waiting for hour-late dates.
Miller hall's Valentine party got into full swing by 9:30, and by the time Sig Alph's were gathering the Miller guests were ready to sit out a dance. ___
Benton Features Quartet
Matt Benton's band from Manhattan, who played for the Sig Alph's party, featured their quartet in arrangements of "Jingle Bells," "My Bonnie Lies Over the Ocean," and "Down by the Old Mill Stream." Benton assisted with his harpsichord and the quartet got themselves and everyone else mixed up on the last named number with printed cards they pulled from under their coats to illustrate the song.
Here are a few quick glances at both parties.
Wilma Jane Haden, Hutchinson,
new Theta pledge, with the new
Alph pledge, Bob Lockwood,
wore her pledge pin for the first
time. She was dressed in a formal
with a low waisted black velvet
fitted top and a full red plaaf tafetta skirt that fell from the hips.
She wore a gold butterfly in her hair.

so that Billie and Mary Kay can take over with the conga instruction. There will be refreshments for all.
Then, girls, come to the Jay Jane jamboree in the Union ballroom next Wednesday afternoon from 4 to 5:30 to learn the latest in "one, two, three, kick."
