Show THIS IS YOUR LIFE CHANODO "Sherwood Forest" was the scene of the first rush party sponsored by Chanodo this year. Decked out in their colors of green and white, the members of the club put on a grand shindig for all of the rushees. Soon afterward, the second rush party was held in the form of a regular "Old Mexico" fiesta. "Our Frivolous" was a continual program of egg shampoos and goldfish swallowing. But we all survived and pledges soon became members. The Friendship Banquet was our obligation this year, and with the help of everyone it turned out to be a lot of fun. Our assembly had calendar girls and talent. Each girl represented a month either in song or dance. "Forest Fantasy" was the theme of our dance and the decorations all wove around this theme, with bunnies and skunks, ponds and trees all adding to the atmosphere. Ray Cummings was chosen as Robin Hood with Ace Nelson and Noel Vanden Bosch named as Friar Tuck and Little John. Little chicken favors marked our places at the Easter Breakfast. In their gay Easter dresses, club members and alumni stood and sang, "Together, sisters, we're standing. Chanodo, the knot." |
