HE purpose of Iron Sphinx is to create better fellowship among the sophomores and freshmen. One rule provided by the organization is that the freshmen must wear green caps until Christmas unless they succeed in winning the "Olympics." The contest is generally held about the first of November and every year, with no exception, the freshmen have been successful, due to the fact that not enough sophomores turn out with the proper spirit to withstand the large mass of freshmen.

     In the early part of the first semester a barbecue was given by the Iron Sphinx for the purpose of creating better friendship among the freshmen and teaching them the value of co-operation.

     During the football season, rallies were sponsored by the Iron Sphinx and before the Notre Dame game they co-operated with the Innocents in putting the rally across forcefully.

     At the beginning of the second semester new members were taken in and initiated so they might take up the work of the old members who did not come back. In the spring new members will be taken in to carry on the work in the coming year.

LACK MASQUE chapter of Mortar Board was organized in 1905. The chapter was initiated into the national honor society early in the spring of 1921. The tradition has been that thirteen junior women were annually chosen to carry on the work of the organization in their senior year. Last year a new rule was made, limiting the number to any between five and thirteen, so that only the really outstanding junior women are selected. The number will not be set as it has in former years. Members are chosen on the basis of scholarship, personality, the activities in which they have participated in the past, as well as the promise for leadership which they show for the coming year.

     The announcement of new members is made on Ivy Day each year, when the new members are "masked" in public by the outgoing actives.
