Murtishaw,V.-P.BRITISH COLUMBIA ALPHA,University of British Columbia.^The 1964-65 term has opened at itsusual hectic pace. Rushing of courseis the number one interest and thegeneral feeling is that the rush isgoing very well. Barring any unforeseendelays, the new house shouldstart construction in early January.The plans are currently in Victoriafor approval by the Provincial Governmentas required of all constructionon University lands. The chapteris extremely grateful to the manyalumni who have put so much timeand effort into making the new housea reality. Some outstanding athleticachievements by members of BritishColumbia Alpha have been noted thisyear. Buckland, Bordewick and Wieczorekmade the trip to Tokyo asmembers of the Canadian OlympicTeam and McKenzie, Kincade, Reid,Handley and Savics have taken upkey positions on the U.B.C. Thunderbirdfootball squad. Chapter participationin intramural sports appearsto be shaping up very wellwith excellent turnouts in all sportsbeing reported. After finisbing a closethird last year as a result of a tremendoussecond term effort whichsaw firsts in bowling, golf and lacrosse,it is felt that a good effortthroughout the whole term shouldput 4> A 9 in strong contention torfirst place. A busy social year isplanned tor the chapter with a widevariety of themes lined up for Saturdaynight festivities. A wild gamedinner is planned for the newpledges on pledging day. The menuwill include moose, venison andwhatever else can be bagged for theoccasion. It is hoped the membersof British Columbia Alpha are keepingin mind the ideals and gOalsthat were laid down at last January'sHarrison Conference and that theywill use this year to firmly incorporatethem into the chapter.-^David Bensted, V.-P.CALIFORNIA ALPHA, Universityof Califomia.^SeVen Phikeias wereinitiated at the beginning of tallsemester.
