INITIATION is
TOO STRENUOUS
BY United Press Wire.

Bridgeport Conn, April 29--Further
details of the ghastly and nerve
racking ceremonies of initiation into
the Alpha Alpha sorority of the
Bridgeport high school, an ordeal
that sent Miss Lorraine Clark to a
sanitarium with nerves shattered, are
expected TO be brought to light at the
resumption of the inquiry by the To-
cal board of education. The school
authorities have secured much of the
written ritual prescribed for the
Initiation of new members of the AL
pha Alpha. Among the psyche -physi-
cal tortures inflicted on Miss Clark
were:
To eat blindfolded, slimy sticks of
macarona boiled in soap and dipped
In white of egg and described TO the
candidate as angleworms and poly
wogs.
The branding, in which a piece of
ice Is applied TO the barred back OF
the victim while burning meat is held
under her nostrils.
