SORORITIES LEAD
IN SCHOLARSHIP
Girls at State University Again
Demonstrate Superiority
as Students.
FARM HOUSE BOYS IN FRONT

Lincoln, April 2+.-(Special.) 1.-The
sororities OF the University of Ne
braska again demonstrated their su-
periority in scholarship over the
fraternities when the records for the
first half year of 1917 were made
public yesterday by Dean Engberg
of the faculty scholarship committee.
Both fraternities and sororitics
showed improvement in scholarship,
but the goods belonging to the Greek
letter organizations set record
which has never been equalled at Ne
braska. Three of the organizations,
Alpha Chi Omega, Achoth and Alpha
Phi finished the first half of the year
without any delinquency, Some OF the
leading fraternities slumped off a bit
in scholarship, but the average was
a gain of 10 points for the men.
The Farm House, an organization
which does not have representation
on the interfraternity council, headed
the mems organizations with Acacia
second. Gamma Phi Beta took the
lead among the sororities.
The general average of the frater-
mites this year was 1859, as against
147 last year. The sororities piled
up a general average of 266.6 this
year, against 2j5 in 1916.
