STARTS AT MISSOURI SCHOOL Founded at Christian College Which Already Supports Three Sororities Including Delta Gamma The Rushing Not a Bit Tame. Tho very lat03t Is the Knppa Thetu PI, a sorority of tiie youngest girls In college. No student who Is more than thirteen years old Is eligible for membership. Imagine girls In knee dresses riding u Greek letter goat, threading the maze of a Greek letter iltual, worshipping at n Greek letter shrine, calling ench other -'Thlstr Time," and concluding let'on; "frater nally yours." Charter Roll Made. Tho sorority hasn't been formed yet, but the roll of charter members, nil of Christian College, Missouri, has been .made. One feels the presence of the new society as Boon as he enters the door of the college, for the 12-year old girl who admits visitors wears the lit tle bow of orange and black which signifies Hint she is a Kappa Thetu Pi pledge. Older girls, members of other sororities who are vei-Bed In the prop er forms of Greek letter mysteries are writing the constitution nnd ritual for them. The new organization will soon take Its place on the roll of Greek let ter sisterhoods. For n number of years there have been three sororities at Christian Col lege: Eta Upsllon Gamma with six Teen members; Lamba Mu, with fif teen members, and Delta Gamma, with 'hlno members. So tho "rushing sea son" at Christian College Is'not at all tame. Each active sorority has a member or tho faculty who acts as "sponsor" to that particular sorority. As the name suggests, the duty of this ofiloial Is to bo responsible for what her sorority does, and while she does not voto on now members, she gives her opinion on candidates. Sho Is also present at the initiation, both the solemn, or "third degree," and the "mock ceremony." Teacher at Initatlon. "You see we havo to have some one from the faculty present at the ipock initiation, us one of the sororities In jured a girl several years ago and tho faculty makes us have a teacher present. Then wo havo our sponsor ut tho third degree to make It digni fied. No ono of our girls is old or dig nified enough to carry tho ceremony through right, wo have our sponsor to act as president" ROOMS FOR 8UMMER 8E88ION.
