While the universal financial unbalance has made itself un- comfortably apparent to this organization, in common with every other, we close the current season of activity without obligations to trouble the new set of officers who will guide us in the com- ing school year. Too much credit cannot be given to Brother R. F. Diekman for his ceaseless and successful efforts in handling our finances. Aside from this, however, the past school year saw a regular schedule of interesting and highly enjoyable meetings, some of which stand out in memory. For example, at one meeting we were favored by a visit from our sincerely esteemed friend and professor, Judge Pickett. On another occasion Brother Jo- seph T. Harrington, honored us with an informal talk on pro- fessional ethics, which left a deep impression on all his hearers. The party at the Morrison Hotel in conjunction with Delta Chi will also be remembered as a pleasurable social event. Near the close of this spring semester, it was our great pleasure to welcome as Brothers, David G. Rowley, Wilfrid Burgess, A. W. Ralston, Duane S. Lawrence and Walter D. Braddock. UNDERGRADUATE NEWS

We are also pleased CHICAGO-KENT REVIEW to announce that our record with the bar examination remains spotless, Brothers Carl Just and Joseph Kovarik being the latest to pass that examination.

It gives the chapter great pleasure to announce that two of its members have been honored during the past semester. Brother John E. Babb, was elected President of the Class of 1933 and Brother J. Norman Boiskou was elected to the position of Secre- tary of the Roundtable for the year 1933-1934. The chapter has been particularly fortunate in the election of Brother John K.

KAPPA BETA PI Alpha Chapter of Kappa Beta Pi held its final rushing party of the year at the home of its Dean, Doris J. Flagg, on March 4, 1933. Pledge services were held at the home of Ethel Gustafson on April 1, 1933, at which time Agnes Barnard, Lucille M. Even, and Emma La Rue were welcomed as future members and re- ceived their pledge pins. After the Pledge Ceremony, Dean Flagg presented the Kappa Beta Pi Scholarship Key for 1932 to Katharyne E. Bauld in recognition of the excellent record which she maintained during her years in law school. The Scholarship Key is presented annually to the Kappa with the best showing in scholastic achievement during her law school career. On March 18, 1933, Alpha Chapter joined the other Chicago Chapters in a pre-convention card party which was given on the Roof Garden at the St. Clair Hotel, and on June 3, 1933, the Chi- cago Chapters of Kappa Beta Pi are again joining in another card party to be given in the Grand Ballroom of the St. Clair Hotel. Alpha Chapter joined the other Chicago Chapters in a joint initiation on May 28, 1933, at a breakfast in the South Room of the Edgewater Beach Hotel. The Chapter takes this opportunity of extending to the new members a hearty and enthusiastic wel- come. Kappa Beta Pi Legal Sorority will hold its Biennial Interna- tional Convention on June 29, 30, and July 1, 1933, with head- UNDERGRADUATE NEWS quarters at the LaSalle Hotel. Alpha Chapter takes this op- portunity of extending to every Kappa a cordial invitation to participate in the festivities. We look forward with keen an- ticipation to welcoming the members of Kappa Beta Pi to Chi- cago because, not only is it World's Fair Year in Chicago, but it is also the twenty-fifth anniversary of the founding of the first legal sorority. Alpha feels that it can be justly proud of the international organization which on December 15. 1908, was formed by ten girls who were members of the freshman, junior and senior classes at Chicago-Kent College of Law. Kappa Beta Pi at the present time has forty-five chapters in law schools throughout the world, and eight alumni chapters and covers twen- ty-three states and the District of Columbia and two foreign countries. The members of Alpha Chapter wish to thank Miss Scheiner for her kind co-operation in furnishing the cut of the College and the Historical information about Chicago-Kent which appeared in the March Number of the Kappa Beta Pi Quarterly.
