on the December social calendar was the Christmas
formal, organized by Don Chiappetti, social chairman. The
Formal was held December 4 at the fashionable El Conquistador
Hotel. The outstanding event of the evening
was the announcement of the Phi Delt Dream Girl, lovely
Miss Florence Archer, and the presentation of a beautiful
necklace to her. Our dates received orchid corsages
and favors bearing the * A © crest. These plus a roast beef
dinner with all the trimmings and a fine dance band
ensured an evening to be remembered by all. Star Phi
in athletics at the .University of Arizona this year is
Rusty Rumney, who, in addition to being house manager,
is a first-rate miler, on the U. or A. track team. He
recently led the team to victory in winning the cross
country race between the U. of A. and Arizona State
College at Tempe. By winning first and second place in
the two meets which comprised the event. Brother
Rumney succeeded not only in putting the U. of A.
Cats in the lead but also won the John Sandiage Trophy
for having the lowest number (Low score wins) of points
in the two meets. We at the Phi house are mighty
proud of Rusty as are the rest of the students, and we
all wish him many more successes.—TOM PARNELL Reporter.
