Children whose families cannot care for them live at the Shelter until suitable housing is found.

What service project could be more fun (and more in keep ing with the national Gamma Phi Camp project) than working with little girls. It was with this in mind that Phi Chapter adopted the idea of a "Big Sister-Little Sister" club with girls from the St. Louis Neighborhood Association. Philanthropy Chairman Ginny Sowinski made the necessary contacts, and the project got underway with a gala Mother-daughter tea. Twenty-five girls, nine or ten years of age, and their mothers were invited to meet the Gamma Phis who would be their "big Delivering stuffed animals fo fhe Children's Shelter are alumna Meredith sister" friends.

Eacli month includes a meeting where the girls do creative projects (such as making puppets, cards, etc.), play team games, and sing with their "big sisters." The second monthly get-together is a field trip to such places as the zoo, Jefferson Memorial, planetarium, and other local points of interest.

6 Crowned Aquatennial Queen of the Lakes
When the Minneapolis Fire Department decided Connie brown Haenny's eyes and pretty smile were exactly what it was looking for, she was crowned Miss Flame. As Aquatennial time arrived, the plot thickened. Sponsored the by Fire Department, Connie was one of forty Minnesota beauties competing for the Aquatennial crown. Two years ago Judy Mellin had been chosen both Miss Flame and Aqua tennial Queen, and if Connie were to follow in Judy's foot steps, she would be the fifth Gamma Phi Beta from Kappa chapter to be Queen of the Lakes. The coronation indeed turned out to be for Connie giving her the new title Aqua tennial Queen of the Lakes. Her parents, Mr. and Mrs. Oliver T. Ellingson, her sister Linda, Pete, her fifty-nine Gamma Phi sisters, and all the fire engine sirens cried happiness tears. Connie's most recent duties involved a trip to Europe. In London, England, she modeled Mary Quant fashions, in Dotheim, Germany, she was the bridesmaid at her sister Linda's wedding, and in Paris she modeled Nina Ricci crea tions. One reporter commented that Connie was "downright chubby" compared to French models, with her ideal American figure. Returning home via the opening of the Americana Hotel in New York, Connie was treated royally. Lili Dache personally gave Connie a tour of her new shop in that hotel, and the Ambassador from Albania complimented Mrs. Elling son on her daughter's humbleness and simplicity.

34 what is Our Camp at Sechelt REALLY Like?
What kind of place is Sechelt? What kind of children go there? What type of program works best? Almost every one of us Gamma Phi Betas can look back on childhood and remember a warm home, good food, and happy in play fresh, clean air. Most of us look back on relaxing sum mer outings as well. As we mature, we realize these blessings are not universal and that in every city there are many little girls who grow up and never know these basic pleasures. Since 1929, when camping was adopted as an international project, Gamma Phi Betas have dreamed, planned, worked, and con tributed money so that a few little girls in this category could have a taste of these "taken for granted" experiences. Perhaps we should not call our Sechelt Camp a camp, but rather a summer home. The property consists of five acres of natural woods. The buildings, which are simply constructed of rough lumber, are suitable for summer use only. They accommo date 32 children, six counselors, one Director, one Waterfront Director, and one cook each session. There will be a new lodge with kitchen, dining, and play area, and rooms for counselors and directors this year. The five hundred feet of clean pebble beach is the chief asset Campers, aided by Vancouver alumna, transfer from bus to boat for scenic lo Sechelt. Vancouver Citizen. at Sechelt.

Toyland Twist Benefits Underprivileged Children Each year at the University of Missouri all of the fraternities and sororities sponsor a Greek Project. This year the project was collecting toys for underprivileged children. November 3 was set aside to give the sororities and fraternities an oppor tunity to work on this. That evening, as a highlight to the work day. Gamma Phi Beta and Pi Kappa Alpha sponsored an open-house party. The Toyland Twist. The party served as a collection agency for all of the toys collected and repaired. Admission to the dance was a minimum of one toy per couple which was suitable for an underprivileged child. Trophies were awarded to the sorority and the fraternity donating the largest number of toys. Delta Gamma sorority and Sigma Nu fra ternity were the winners. The Toyland Twist proved to be a great success as we col lected 1604 toys. These toys were distributed to the Columbia Junior Chamber of Commerce, the Fire Department, and the Pediatrics Wards of the Boone County Hospital and the Uni versity of Missouri Medical Center to be used for under privileged children. Also on December 15 along with the Pi Kappa Alphas we had a Christmas party for mentally retarded and underprivileged children in the Columbia area and gave them some of these toys. ]) ]> J
