enumeration as Volume VI No. 1, as though it were a continuation of the old annual published by the Yale sophomore society.
In a somewhat similar spirit, the fraternity claims as members all the persons who belonged to the old sophomore society, although it is obvious that the present organization is not the same in character or class as the one of which they were members. Many of these members have apparently adhered to the new national organization in spite of membership in other national Greek letter organizations; but as they have been long on the rolls of the latter organizations we have decided not to enumerate them as members of Alpha Sigma Phi until the question is settled by themselves or the fraternities in question.
The badge of the old sophomore society was a rectangular slab about an inch long displaying a shield bearing an open book engraved with hieroglyphics, beneath which book is displayed the letters. The colors are stone color and cardinal. This badge is still used but smaller in size.
Among the prominent alumni of the Marietta chapter are Albert B. White, formerly governor of West Virginia; John H. Snodgrass, U.S. Consul at Moscow; Charles W. Elliott, a member of the Philippines Commission; Judge Oscar R. Hundley, of the U.S. Circuit Court for Alabama; Rev. Charles Little, Moderator of the Presbyterian Assembly and Charles T. Lewis, president of the T.&O.C.R.R.
