History Of Theta Sigma Phi
W omens' Journalistic'Fraterniy
In 1910, at he Kansas Uni
versity, the first chapter of
Theta Sigma Phi was form
ed lor the main purpose of
providing opportunity and
Inspiration for women wish
ing to make journalists their
lite work. The chosen mem
bers from the University
were those who had distin
guished themselves in tho
field, and others who were
interested in opening up a
O'niian): Mollie C.ilmartin, Gertrude
McGee;. Ethel Arnold and Clara
Dodds.
There are now twenty-five chapters
of Theta Sigma Phi, the newest ono
being California. All chapters are
very active in all school affairs. They
are doing big things, trying to estab
lish a name tor the organization. Al
though only six years old, the .pro
fessional sorority is nationally known
and it stands out through the splen
did work accomplished by some of its
members. Sivla women as Funny
Hurst, Mrs. Humphrey Ward, Bes3
Strecter Aldrich and others are the
ones to whom Theta Sigma Phi owes
thanks for making it the high stand
ard organization that it is.
The aims of the Nebraska chapter,
as well as all others, are: to create a
better type of college journalism; to
assist in a development of a college
of journalism at the University of Ne
braska; to provide help for the mem
bers in the study and pursuit of their
chosen profession and to extend such
opportunity also, whenever possible to
all other women students of journal
ism; and last, to develop a spirit of
friendship among women who are fol
lowing simil.ir fields of work.
Other chapters have done many
fine things. The one in Chicago ha3
established a sorority house, where
Theta Sigma Phis, either in collegt
or in active work, may live. The
house is a large home, beautifully dec
orated and outfitted. Large rooms
for social activities are reserved and
libraries for study have been installed.
It is the aim of many chapters to
have houses elsewhere to promote en
thusiastic co-operation.

Nebraska Representatives at Na
tional Y. W. C. A. Conven
tion Return
The National Convention of Y.
W. C. A., was held at Hot Springs,
Arkansas, April 20-272. The Ne
braska delegates, Dorothy Williams
aid Miss Erma Appleby returned
yesterday morning with an enthusi
astic recital of events.
Topics of national interest were
discussed at this meeting and many
promising reports made by delegates
-om the various fields. Co-operation
with rural Y. W. C. A., units is to
be the goal of the Y. W. C. A. for
the coming year In years past, a
successful effort to co-ordinate with
the Industrial unite has been made
and this movement is to be eon
, a oiMmiurh sDecial attention
will be given to the development of
the rural community Y. W. C. A.
A paralell movement urging gins

cities, was also initiated.
In connection with the uniting of
the industrial and student organiza
tions, was discussed the success of
the plan of interchanging members.
Last summer, groups of industrial
workers attended summer school at
Bryn Mawr while college girls did

Phi,, at the University of Nebraska,
holds meetings every other Wednes
day at Elkn Smith Hall. These are
merely the regular meetings. Liter
ary programs, social gatherings arid
special lectures intervene witii the
regular meetings. The chapter was
represented University Skit Night,
presenting a playlet, "The Rag Office
in 1922." Some of the issues of Aw
gwan were assisted by the sorority
members. In 1918, "girls' year" in
the University, Theta Sigma Phi pub
lished a book, "The Whiskbroom,"
presenting all kinds of college life
during a war year. The publication
was very successful and the proceeds
were used to send a delegate to the
biennial convention of the Fraternity
at Lawrence, .Kansas. It is hoped that
the book maybe put out again in the
near future with more success than
before. The last convention was held
at Madison, Wisconsin. The one to
have been held this year was post
poned until next spring.
The active members of Theta Sig
ma Phi at Nebraska are: Katherine
Bienke, Margret Black, Mildred Doyle,
Belle Farman, Lois Hartman, Nellie
Lee Holt, Valora Hullinger, Dorothy
Iluse, Nora Livingston, Carita Her
zog, Gertrude Patterson, Florence
Miller, Sue Stille, Mary Thomas, Jes
sie Watson and Irma Wiltse. Jessie
Watson is the president of the fra
ternity. All of these women have dis
tinguished themselves in journalistic
work and are continuing to do so to
a greater degree. Belonging to the
chapter has' helped them find a way
to make good use of their knowledge
and has also helped Theta Sigma Phi.
