Always a big contender in softball, they captured the 'A' team championship, Closing a semester full of victory I they had their banquet at Dan's Catfish House . The men returned to classes in the fall with many g0ais. "We have been pretty much sports oriented in the past," Stout said. "It's our own doing, but it's hurt us in the long-run. OUf main goal is to expand our horizons this year." In this effort, they joined several women's clubs, such as Sigma Phi Mu and Ka Re Ta, for cookouts and devotionals.
