I make Swedish meatballs with the usual mushroom gravy, or plain gravy, but sometimes I add a cup of sour cream to the meat juice in the pan, and keep it over the heat just long enough ahead of serving to heat the cream thoroughly." For 30 years Mrs. Budd led the life of a navy wife, raising one son who lives with his wife and two children in New Jersey.

• This introduces a new feature in our TRIANGLE. It is hoped it will become one of your favorite pages. Here, in each issue, a member of the National Council will give you a glimpse of some of the sorority business which we believe will be of special interest to you. Thus we hope to keep in closer contact with you and to keep you better informed on sorority plans and projects. Your comments-favorable and adverse-will be appreciated. An event of great importance to all Sigmas has just taken place, and we are proud and happy to announce the merging of Pi Kappa Sigma with Sigma Kappa. Pi Kappa Sigma is the oldest of the educational sororities, having been founded in 1894, and now has approximately 12,000 members. We know you will be happy to welcome these new sisters in the Bond. -We Have a Trust From Those in the Past- Good scholarship is a prime factor in the standing of any sorority in the col­ legiate world and is one of the cornerstones upon which Sigma Kappa was founded, but it seems that from time to time it is necessary to measure ourselves against that high standard which is traditional in Sigma. With this in mind, our Province Presidents recommended at Convention last summer that any chapter not above the all-sorority average in scholarship rating on campus for one year be placed on probation, such probation to be determined by the Advisory Board and Province President of that chapter. Several chapters, realiz­ ing that they were in a precarious position, having been below the all-sorority aver~ age for one semester, took action themselves and set up excellent scholarship pro­ grams so effective that at the end of the fall semester, they were above the all­ sorority average. Congratulations! Keep up the good work so that in another semester you can be on top. Another step toward better scholarship is a policy on third semester pledgings recently adopted by Council, whereby, to be initiated, a third semester pledge must make the over-all initiation average for the three semesters of her pledgeship. -We Have a Stewardship for the Present- For the graduates who are soon to leave their college chapters, there will be some nostalgia because your college days in Sigma are over. But actually your friendships in Sigma Kappa are only beginning-yours is a pledge of friendship for life, not for just four years. We are happy to welcome you into our ever grow­ ing circle of alumnre. Be an active alumna, seek out an alumnre chapter in your home town or if there is no chapter or club, why not organize one? Sigma Kappa needs your participation and you will enjoy the fun and friendships t&at will be yours as an active alumna. This is your opportunity, Alumnre Chapters, to seek out these new alumnre and add new friends and workers to your group. -We Have an Investment for the Future- Our first College Officers' Training School, now more familiarly known as "COTS" was designed as a workshop to be held in the years between conventions so that we might explore together the techniques of leadership-since strong leader­ ship makes for strong chapters. Our second COTS will be in session this summer from Aug. 14-Aug. 16 at Iowa State college at Ames, Iowa. This is our sorority-rooted in a fine and enviable Past, flourishing with a new growth in the Present, and full of promise of an ever greater Future! Sincerely in Sigma,
