NNOCENTS, honorary organization composed of thirteen senior men, was founded in 1903 by four men in the University who saw a necessity for an organization of students that would lead the student body in many of its traditions and affairs. The thirteen men are chosen at the end of their junior year by their accomplishments during their underclass days and their promise of service for their senior year.

     Announcement of the new members is annually made on Ivy Day, at the "Tapping" ceremony, in which the old members "tap" their successors.

     Activities have been built up and increased in the twenty years of endeavor of the society. This year the Innocents sponsored such events as Freshmen Initiation, Cornhusker banquet, greencap tradition, football rallies, the Olympics, Dad's Day, entertainment for visiting high school basketball teams, and other work looking toward the formation of a Nebraska spirit and loyalty of the highest type.

     Each year an Innocent from the faculty is chosen to aid the active men in their work. Dr. George Condra and Coach Henry Schulte served as alumni advisors this year.

OTA SIGMA PI is a national honorary chemistry fraternity for women. It was founded at the University of Nebraska in 1912, and united with a similar group at the University of Washington in 1914. The national organization originated from the union of these two chapters in the leading universities.

     The purpose of Iota Sigma Pi is to stimulate interest and achievement among women in chemical fields. In order to realize this purpose two meetings are held each month; one being a business meeting, and one a meeting at which various members give scientific papers on subjects of interest, such as "Chemistry in Peace and War," "Dyeing of Silks," "Chemistry of Blood," "Chemical Industries of Nebraska," and "The Hospital Technician."

     During Alumni Week the organization holds its annual banquet for alumni and actives. The national organization of Iota Sigma Pi holds a convention every three years, to which this chapter sends a delegate.

     The chapter has promoted a friendly relationship between the faculty members of the chemistry department and students by means of social gatherings and open meetings throughout the year.
