Show THIS IS YOUR LIFE ALPHA RHO OMEGA The 1954-55 year can be written off as one of the most successful in the history of the "Blue and White Knights of Weber." Our first rush party was a stag party at Crystal Springs; our second was a terrif date party at the "Old Mill!" We really got a terrific bunch of froshies who have been a credit to the club all year. Activities Winter quarter included a very successful "Smokeless Smoker," and the fabulous "Collegiate Promenade," at which pert Bev Coleman and Ray Cummings received Bulovas. The big event of Spring quarter was the party of world renown, the Bear Lake Party, at which a new record for drownings was set. Alpha Rho was extremely active in student government and whole-heartedly supported school drives, activities and functions; all of which made for a great year at Weber. |
