WE SALUTE YOU

Phi Delta Theta-Phi Sigma Kappa Two incidents have occurred recently which are similar to an event that took place at Amherst College several years ago. At Williams College a chap¡ ter of a great national fraternity flagrantly violated the rules and regulations of its National Organization and initiated into that chapter, a person who under the fraternity 's constitution, was not eligible for membership. A similar and even more recent such incident occurred at Boston University. In each case, the local chapter was immediately expelled or suspended by the national fraternity.

After having received what they termed "this horrible treatment," the chapters ran to their local alumni and to the public for sympathy and support.

What sympathy or support they received, I do not know, but if the alumni maintained any loyalty to the fraternity, or to the principles for which our country stands, it was not forthcoming. If they received any support or sympathetic slaps on the back from the public, it must have come from the Communists or Communist sympathizers themselves, or else from honest Americans who have been hood-winked and misled by Soviet semantics into believing that "to discriminate" is a term to be used in ho.r ror.

In America we live under a Constitution which sets down the basic principles upon which our great democracy is established. One of these is the legislative processes through which a change must come. When society wishes a change in the law, they do not m,erely disregard or openly violate the existing rules. It is by a vote of the people or their elected representatives, and through an orderly and peaceful process that a change is effected.

Each and every fraternity has within its own constitution a provision allowing for changes to come about in a proper fashion. It is in this manner, and only this, that a change should ever be considered. Anyone who condones action not consistent with these principles, or who supports any group that violates these principles, is in reality approving an action that is repugnant to our basic democratic beliefs. When a person joins a fraternity , he is aware of its rules, its ideals, and its principles. Persons who believe that they should be allowed to openly violate and revolt against these long established and honorable ideals and go unpunished, and persons who abet and support such actions, are nothing more than revolutionists.

Americans believe in freedom-freedom of peaceable assembly and freedom of association. They also believe in a government that is orderly and peaceable, and which operates according to the basic laws established by our society. Phi Delta Theta and Phi Sigma Kappa have, by their action, helped further and preserve these American principles.

We salute Phi Delta Theta and Phi Sigma Kappa for their forthright and proper action in disciplining the above mentioned chapters of their fraternity.

SUMMER RUSHING There is no doubt about it, summer rushing is a chore. There is not much glamour in analyzing rush lists, mailing out letters promptly, making p er sonal contacts and getting acquainted with parents as well as rushees themselves. But it does pay dividends next fall, for, make no mistake, there is no short cut, no magic, no substitute for organization and plain hard work, when it comes to rushing- summer variety included. The summer contacts you have made govern th e degree of selectivity you may wish to observe next fall. Of course, personal contacts are the most valuable of all ; a familiar face to the rushee when he enters your chapter house is a joy to even the most sophisticated high school senior.

Actives are not the only members who should be interested in summer rushing. Alumni can contribute a great deal toward per petuating the type of membership they value by referring selected names to their chapters. He does not need to go out and beat the bushes-just passing on the infor mation about a son or relative, or those of a friend is all that is needed to start the ball rolling.

This is not meant to be a treatise on the subject, but there is one final suggestion that can be made. Everyone will agree to the great value of having each chapter rush fo r the remaining 40. Literally this is not possible, but it can be approached and ver y simply. All that is necessary is to be observing and when you learn of a boy who is planning to attend college where Acacia has a chapter, simply drop a post card to the central office where the information will be processed and passed on. It does not take a very sharp pencil to calculate the potential of this idea if only a small percentage of last year 's 1,600 actives responded.

Your Fraternity is in the strongest position it has ever been! It will stay that way only by pledging the highest type of men. You can help to insure that by being alert in your summer rushing!

The Triad wishes to express its thanks and appreciation to Doug Mcilroy , Robt. Baker, Marvin Townsend, and Lew Wingard, Jr. , lor their assistance in gathering and editing the material about Cornell University. It also thanks the Cornell Office of Public Information, Fenner Studios, Cornell Photo Science, and The Cornell Engineer lor the use of their photographs.

ACACIANS EVERYWHERE CELEBRATE FOUNDER'S DAY Michigan Founder's Day was celebrated at the Mother Chapter of the Acacia Fraternity on May 16, 1953. Thirty alumni members returned for the annual day of activities, including the annual alumni-active chapter meeting.

The day's festivities started at noon for many of the alums, with a luncheon, br anded as the "Old Timer's" luncheon, at the Town Club in Ann Arbor. Activities at the chapter house commenced at three o'clock in the afternoon.

Many of the alums took advantage of the track meet between Michigan and Illinois. Others went down to the arboretum for the annual alum-active chapter baseball game. Everyone sat around the chapter house commenting on the recent renovations, and renewing old acquaintances while discussing the "good old days."

At six thirty in the evening the entire group reassembled in the chapter house for the annual banquet.

After a superb meal, Herbert Wagner, Jr. , r ecently elected Venerable Dean addressed the group on the "Accomplishments of the Michigan Chapter in the Past Year." Cigars were distributed, and the group adjourned to

the living room for singing. Brothers involved in the I.F.C. sing group offered their rendition of several songs for the gathered alums and actives.

The annual meeting of the alumni association of the chapter and the active chapter was called to order. New officers of the alumni association are President, William Clark; Vice-President, George Campbell; Secretary, Arthur Nissly; Treasurer, Russell Pryce; Chapter Advisor, John Hazelworth. Ken Clark is now financial advisor and Lawrence Sweet rushing advisor. Committees in the form of an administrative council and the alumni relations committee were set up. The meeting was adjourned and a successful day of activities for both the alums and the active chapter was ended.

New Hampshire As a highlight to the initiation weekend, our annual Founder's Day Banquet was held in the Chapter House May 3. Following church services in the morning, thirty-three new brothers and well over seventy actives, alumni and their wives sat down to a steak dinner.

Our main guest for the afternoon was Mr. Frederick N. Clarke, Motor Vehicle Commissioner for New Hamp-

shire and an alumni member. He complimented the house on the enormous strides which have been made since the chapter's founding in 1949, and urged us to continue the good work in the coming years.

Other guests were Mrs. "Dad" Henderson, whose husband was an active member in the state, community and the Fraternity, Mrs. George Faulkrod, the only woman honorary member of Acacia, and Dean William Medesy, Dean of Men for the University.

Illinois Founder's Week-end was held at the Illinois Chapter on April 25-27, with the largest turnout in the chapter's history. Four Illinois founders were present for the week-end festivities.

Alumni luncheon was held Saturday noon, after which the alumni and actives joined in attending the IllinoisMichigan baseball double-header. It was a preview of the Big Ten's top teams as both teams eventually tied for their second consecutive Big Ten title.

Dinner was held at the chapter house on Saturday evening, and the night was left free for alums to visit with each other and renew old friendships.

The main banquet was held in the chapter dining room on Sunday afternoon, and following the banquet, Dr. Charles F. Hottes gave a most interesting talk on his travels through Guatemala and Mexico. The address was supplemented with the use of colored slides. Edgar R. Kelly, Alumni Secretary and Editor represented the National Fraternity.

Following Dr. Hottes' address, the semi-annual alumni-active business meeting was held, and Founder John C. Spitler was elected Chapter Advisor, replacing Dr. Pembroke Brown who is retiring at the end of the current year. Mr. William Krieger, President of the Building Corporation, presented a piece of luggage to Dr. Brown as a testimonial to his long and faithful service to both the chapter and the alumni body.

The Chicagoland Alumni Association joined with the Northwestern Chapter on May 13, to celebrate

THE TRIAD

Founder's Day at the Georgian Hotel in Evanston. Mr. Andre Mouton, MidContinent Manager for the Port of New Orleans was principal speaker for the evening, and Edgar R. Kelly, National Alumni Secretary, outlined the fraternity's future plans and gave a resume of the last year from a national level.

Indiana Indiana Acacians gathered to celebrate Founder's Day at the Chapter House on May 2. Many alumni attended as the affair was planned to tie in with the University's Cream and Crimson Day. Principal speaker at the banquet on Satuday evening was Edgar R. Kelly, National Alumni Secretary. Following Mr. Kelly's address, the annual alumni business meeting was held, and Charles Jarrett, former National Traveling Secretary was re-elected as Alumni President. Ray C. Thomas, former National Counselor and present member of the IU Board of Trustees was also present.

Alumni Association President Bill Harrison addresses Twin City Acacians in St. Paul. Other persons a.t the speakers table {L. to R.) are Ed Kelly, National Hdqrs.; Lou Johnson , Founder's Day Chaorman and Emcee; and Ron Pontinen, Venerable Dean.

Minneapolis-St. Paul "One of the best ever," was the general consensus of opinion of the 51 Acacians who attended the annual Founder's Day Banquet the evening of May 11 at Napoleon's Cafe in the St. Paul Midway.

Guest speaker for the event was John Burger, Director of Educational Services for General Mills Inc. Burger in his speech entitled "You Can Do Anything" stated one could do anything if he would follow these three simple rules; talk in terms of other peoples' interests, be positive in his thinking and be enthusiastic.

Sharing the speaker's spotlight was Ed Kelly, Alumni Secretary for the National Fraternity and TRIAD Editor.

Kelly stated the need for an active Twin City Acacia Alumni Association.

He pointed out that with so many Acacians residing in and around the Cities that an active and large association could be of invaluable service to both members and the chapter.

He also urged all Acacians to take part in the newly formed Acacia Foundation Program.

Kelly explained that the program is being set up to give deserving Acacians loans and scholarships and is being financed through contributions and $5 a year or $50 life dues.

The TRIAD Editor went on to tell that all the 15,000 Acacians throughout the nation should want to help in this worthy cause. Kelly said that the colonization program to begin in

the South next fall will depend largely on the success of the program.

Included in the evening's festivities were reports by Ron Pontinen, newly elected Venerable Dean, and Bill Harrison, Alumni Association President, a short business meeting and the election of three members to the Alumni Board.

Oklahoma On the annual Founder's Day, April 26, smoke filled the house. From preparing for the alums and their wives, that is. A banquet was held in the new Memorial Union with Roy C. Clark, National Executive Secr etary, as guest speaker. A dinner was also given by the Mother's Club for the wives of attending alumni.

Where there's smoke there's fire, and sure enough, that afternoon, G. L. Smith, Chapter Advisor in 1924 when the house was constructed, d.i d the honor o.f burning the mortgage. It's now a debt free house.

Among the prominent alums present for the event were Judge Ted O'Niel, a founder and first Venerable Dean of the Chapter; John Hervey, Secretary of the Oklahoma Bar Assn.; Emil Kraettli, Secretary of the Univer sity and Board of Regents ; Cecil Brite, Past National Secretary; and Carlton Wright, Vice-President of the First National Bank of Oklahoma City.

Iowa Iowa Chapter and alumni cele-

brated Founder's Day on May 10, in Iowa City. P rincipal speaker for the affair was Executive Secretary Roy C. Clark. Prof. Clar ence Updegraff, a George Washington Acacian now on the Iowa Law Faculty also spoke at the event.

Rensselaer On April 11, the Rensselaer Chapter held its frrst Founder's Day in its history. It was a great success with one-third of our alumni present, including former Venerable Deans George Dickie and Bob Anwyl. It was a busy day with the arriving alums spending the morning renewing old friendships and with the house resounding to crys of "Boy, you haven't changed a bit." In the afternoon an alumni vs. actives basketball game was held in the RPI gym. The score will not be revealed but let it suffice to say that everyone had a good time.

Back at the house a meeting of all alumni present was held to organize an alumni organization, at which George Dickie was elected president.

Plans were made to inform alumni of the presence of other alumni in their area.

In the evening a cocktail party and buffet supper was held followed by a party in our basement. The night was filled with singing till the wee small hours of the morning, and when it was all over both alumni and ac(Continued on page 110)

THE TRIAD

N spite of the way that history is taught, dates are the least important items. What counts is what has been done, and what have been the results, or effect, of the doing. By such reckoning, the story of Cornell University, one of the youngest of the important universities, is significant because of its influence in the educational world.

In an existence of only 83 years, Cornell has changed educational ideas and ideals by its pioneer efforts, by its extension of college teaching into new and untried fields , and by its contribution to the force of educational leaders who have taken these ideas into other colleges, not only throughout America but into many other lands.

Cornell still bears the stamp of its founders, the practical, forthright, and upright Ezra Cornell, and the scholarly, cultured and far-seeing Andrew D. White. If one must have dates, the University was incorporated just after the Civil War in 1865, and was opened in 1868.

Its eariier days as a nonsectarian institution were beset by adverse criticisms which proclaimed it as a "godless" institution. Also, because of the endowments for its support, generous for those days, it was assailed as an "aristocratic institution" and therefore an undemocratic one. Time has proved that it is one of the most democratic, and a place where an unusual proportion of its students "work their way through college."

Cornell is a combination of an endowed and a governmentally-sup-

ported university. Some of its colleges receive their support from var ious state and federal sources, beginning with the Morrill Land Grant College Act and continuing through many others, including the important SmithLever Act of 1914, which provided for the important extension activities in the fields of agriculture.

B y 1912 Cornell had become the second largest university in the United States, and in February of that year, a small magazine enter ed the mails. The Nun Traveler, as it was called, told of the founding and

the initial gr owth of the 14th chapter of the Acacia F r aternity. On May 30, 1907, in Barnes Hall and the Masonic Temple, the new chapter had been initiated. Soon the struggling gr oup had moved to temporary quarter s in a small house on DeWitt Place and then to larger quarters at 708 East Seneca Street. In five years, 80 Acacians had alr eady been initiated, and the chapter w as a soundly going organization. Eleven of its sixteen actives wer e instructors or professor s, perhaps explaining why the undergraduate member s led the campus in scholarship.

The Travele1¡ recorded with gr eat pr ide the visits of Yale P r ofessor William Howard Taft and Harvard's Roscoe Pound. Taft had plenty of interesting things to say about his soj ourn in the White H ouse. But the br others enjoyed the presence of species commoner than United States P r esident.

"Hiram Jr." and his son Pick became the fi r st of a long line of house mascots, the most recent of which have been mongrel Dammit, greyhound Corky, and. black setter Doc. Like most fraternities , the chapter w as forced to close dur ing World War I. When operation was r enewed in 1920, a different house was rented.

Six hundred fourteen East Buffalo Street had room for 20 diners and 21 sleepers, an improvement over the cramped Seneca Street quarters (15 beds and 18 table places). The new quarters were near er to the campus and had the luxuries of a poolroom and tennis court, not to mention a sorority next door. Under the guid-

ance of Dr. Leland Spencer, corporation treasurer, and Venerable Dean Everett Strong the house paid back its original bonds and established the building pledge as a method of raising money for improved quarters.

An elaborate colonial mansion was planned to become the new chapter home. A beautiful lot near the Ithaca country club was purchased, and fund-raising was well underway. But before the fund-raising was complete, the chapter caught sight of a house for sale in Cayuga Heights, just outside of Ithaca. The old Williams home was snapped up; and in 1934 the brothers took up residence at 318 Highland Road, where Acacia is still located.

Cornell acted as host to the Silver Jubilee Conclave of 1929. At this time 72 delegates and staff members from 33 active chapters enjoyed Ithaca's scenic beauty. Pre-pledging was the major topic of the conference wh~ch served as a warm-up for the hardfought 1931 and '33 Conclaves.

Acacia closed again during the last war, but 1946 found the doors reopened with seven actives, one pledge, and fifteen paying roomers living in the house. Largely due to the generosity of R. C. "Doc" Bradley, the house was completely refurnished ; and the corporation expended $5,000 to redecorate and install gleaming tile bathrooms. With this start, the chapter had grown to about 65 active members in 1950.

Acacians at Cornell have been prominent in campus life and activit ies since the fraternity's founding.

Varsity athletics, politics, honorary and scholastic groups, and music are only a few of the many fields in 106

which Acacians at Cornell have distinguished themselves. R. C. Bradley, poultry executive, and founder of the New Hampshire Chapter; Karl Dallenback, Editor of the American Jour naL of PsychoLogy; Robert M. Dolve, Dean of the College of Engineering at North Dakota A. & M., and Riley H. Heath Justice of the New York Suprem~ Court, head a lengthy list of Cornell Acacia alumni who have won positions of prominence.

The name Ithaca, the city in which Cornell is located, was taken from the Greeks. But that was long before any one ever dreamed that it would one day house a University and that neo-Greeks would inhabit its fraternity houses. The history of the town can be divided into two epochs: B.C. (before Cornell) and A.C. (after Cornell). Two hundred and fifty years ago this region was the birthplace of the first American republic-the League of the Iroquois. These Indians roamed the glacial-gouged valley and hillsides, free from white settlers until April, 1789, when a group of frontiersmen landed at the foot of Cayuga Lake in the ruins left by Sullivan's raid a decade before. In 1795 a road was cut opening Ithaca to the neighboring towns to the West and East.

Settlers filtered in along the Catskill Turnpike and also by the portage from the Hudson . Growth was slow, the town running as a placid hill-village, until the construction of the Erie Canal in 1825. Ithaca then blossomed out a bit as did all upstate New York when this great waterway was opened to the city. A newspaper and a bank were started, but Ithaca lost out as a railway center in the next decade, being passed by all the major lines.

Though it had a few manufacturers, very little might have been heard of Ithaca had not a native son chosen to found here the University which bears his name.

Ezra Cornell entered Ithaca's scene as a plough salesman in the 1840's.

Sam Morse of grade-school history fame became interested in Cornell and made him the supervisor of the laying of the Baltimore-Washington telegraph line. Cornell grew both rich and famous from investment in the newly formed Western Union Telegraph Co. Returning to Ithaca he at once began to put the place on the map. Opposite his downtown house he built a bank and local library.

His hillside farm he set aside for "an institution where anyone can get instruction in any subject." He also h~lped bring a railroad to town, the Lehigh Valley-whose trains have been a cross which Cornellians have borne ever since. You can see the long-haired figure even today ; Cornell

University's quadrangle is dominated by a large brass statue which vainly seeks a coed as beautiful as the campus he created.

After Cornell's death, the Ithaca community grew until it has become a bustling town of 20,000, the site of Ithaca College, Cornell University, Morse Chain Co. , the Adding Machine Division of the National Cash Register Company, and The Ithaca Gun Works.

In its 83 years, Cornell University has grown from a rash young upstart, which broke many of the then prevalent rules of higher education, to a respected and highly thought of educational institution. It has progressed in the quality of instruction as well as grown in physical capacity, until today it is especially noted for its colleges of Agriculture and of Engineering, and for its schools of Hotel Administration and of Industrial and Labor Relations. Throughout its growth, however, the university has maintained its policy of not heeding the set rules of higher education. The adoption of a five year engineering program, its joint program with industry as a new source for funds, and its "accelerated method" for the teaching of languages emphasize this fact.

Cornell is supported both by State

of New York funds and by endowment. The divisions of Agriculture, Home Economics, Veterinary, and Industrial and Labor Relations are state supported; while those of Engineering, Arts and Sciences, Hotel Administration, and Architecture are endowed. The endowed colleges represent over 50 per cent of the student body, and the value of the endowment is over $48,000,000.

THE TRIAD

The president of the university, Deane W. Malott, is the sixth person to hold this office since the founding of Cornell. He is in his second year, having previously served as chancellor of the University of Kansas.

Cornell is located on the "hill" where it was founded, some 400 feet above Lake Cayuga and the city of Ithaca. The university occupies much more land now, owning over 9,500 acres in campus, farms, forests , and experimental tracts. Besides its main campus, the university has divisions at Buffalo, New York, Aeronautical Laboratory;. New York City, Medical College and School of Nursing; and Geneva, New York, Agriculture Experimentation Station.

The main campus is a large tract of land bordered on one side by the City of Ithaca and stretching in the other direction towards Syracuse, New York, 56 miles away. On the other two sides it is bordered by two parallel gorges each nearly 100 feet deep and about two-thirds of a mile apart.

Some 60 main buildings of many different species of architecture are distributed over the campus. In addition there is one of the finest college baseball fields in the East in Hoy Field; the football stadium, Schoellkopf Field, seats about 34,000.

The normal postwar enrollment in all divisions of the university is about 10,000 men and women, representing every state in the union and some 60 foreign countries. Admission is open to all regardless of race, religion, color, or sex.

Aside from scholastic endeavors a Cornellian has a multitude of diversions to which he can turn. Over 200 clubs and organizations function on the campus. Some of the main activities include: administrative-Student Council, W.S.G.A., I.F.C ., Pan-Hellenic; publications-Cornell Daily Sun, Cornellian (yearbook) , Widow (humor); music-M.e n's and Women's Glee Clubs, Sage Chapel Choir; Big Red Band.

Cornell pursues a broad program of athletics, both varsity and intramural. The university is a member of the Ivy League and is thus governed in athletics by the policies of this league--no post season participation in athletics, strict compliance with scholastic standards, and no freshmen eligible for varsity competition.

The student at Cornell has a wide degree of freedom, both in his actions and in his thoughts. He lives in an atmosphere free from the distractions of a large city. The equipment both physical and cultural is there. Thus may Cornell continue to fulfill the

OF ACACIA

Oklahoma A & M, Penn State, Washington Host Regional Training Schools Regional Officer Training Schools under the direction of National Headquarters will be held at Oklahoma A & M and Penn State, August 26-30, and at the University of Washington, September 2-6.

Representatives from 20 chapters will be in attendance at State College, 15 at Stillwater, and 6 at Seattle.

Acacia, one of the pioneers in the officers training school program, has found these to be one of the most valuable services rendered to the undergraduate chapters and delegates. Instruction is given in every phase of fraternity operation, and the benefit received by the chapters in furthering sound operation is immeasurable.

The conferences will be under the direction of the National Council and the National Headquarters Staff. In addition to these officials, the faculties at the various meets will also include leading officers and representatives from other national fraternities.

Heading the list of vital subjects to

be covered are rushing, pledge training, and chapter administration. In addition to these topics will be finances, social and etiquette, alumni relations, publicity and public relations, scholarship, activities, intramurals, singing, and ritualistic procedure and practice. The instruction, as has been found most effective in the past, is not limited to lectures alone, but much time is given to open group discussion where a wide exchange of ideas can best be effected.

All conferences will open with a reception on the first evening, and will close with a banquet on the last night. Final details have not yet been arranged for banquet speakers, thus they cannot be announced at this time.

Alumni and wives are welcome to attend and are encouraged to do so.

As all details are being handled through National, it is necessary that reservations be sent to National Headquarters prior to August 8. Do not send reservations to the Chapter houses.

SAN FRANCISCO CLEVELAND NASHVILLE LOS ANGELES

He Founded the School For Church Ushers "It takes more than just a blue serge suit and a pious countenance to be a church usher" says Everett M. Hosman, founder and sole professor of the only college course m crowd engineering.

ROTHER E. M. Hosman, son of a Methodist minister, arrived at the above conclusion eight years ago and it hasn't altered any since then. And fortunately for thousands of church ushers, and millions of church goers, he decided to do something about it.

As dean of the University of Omaha's renowned College of Adult Education, the problem's solution proved to be right down his alley.

He started the ball rolling in 1944 with a church usher's course at Omaha University. The dean now admits that he was a bit skeptical of just how it would be received by the public.

He wasn't skeptical for long. National publicity was forthcoming and led to international attention. Inquiries from all points of the globe pomed into the University and the course expanded to become a correspondence program also.

During the intervening years Dean Hosman traversed the middle, eastern, and southern portions of the United States. Ministers and laymen in New York, Kansas, Oklahoma, Florida, Colorado, Illinois, Arkansas, Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, Alabama, and Tennessee were curious to know more about this man and his ideas about church ushering.

And the educator, who had a definite plan of action to offer, convinced them an usher does need more than a blue serge suit and a white carnation .

The results of his lecture tours flowed into his University mailbox.

B

108

From Chicago, Ill.: "The course stimulated my thinking and created a real desire to improve my work in this field ." Columbus, Ohio: "The course intrigued to the proverbial last drop."

Washington, D. C.: "After taking the course I can emphatically say the service of ushering is more significant as a ministry to worship." San Francisco, Calif.: "It has been a great help to me and my church." Little Rock, Ark.: "We were blessed by your visit." Hutchinson, Kan.: "Your discussions stimulated thinking and will greatly improve ushering in our churches."

Hardly a church in the country exists today that hasn't in one way or another felt the effects of Dean Hosman's far -reaching program. Nearly 3,500 ushers, ministers, heads of church councils, and even city officials have enrolled in his enlightening courses.

In addition to nationwide newspaper publicity, his program has been the subject of articles in such famous magazines as the American, Pathfinder, Saturday Evening Post, and Quick.

What Brother Hosman offers is an intensive course for those having a sincere desire to learn something of the art, psychology, and techniques of congregational engineering with particular reference to worship.

Compare the course in its funda mentals to a television or radio production. In each case there is the warm-up, the period when the audience or congregation is made to feel receptive to the "main attraction." In the case of the church, the minister

would be the "main attraction." And that is one of the usher's primary tasks-putting the congregation in a mood receptive to the ministry of preaching.

Dean Hosman says, "The work, or ministry of the church is carried on by a division of labor. For example, there is the ministry of preaching, the ministry of music, the ministry of teaching, and the ministry of the usher.

"In the ministry of formal and organized worship, we usually are concerned with audiences, or congregations, in our several churches. A congregation is potentially a number of problems, in number as great as the number of people in the congregation.

The order of service also complicates problems. To have a successful worship experience, each participant must be considered and the distractions to worship dissipated, so that the worshippers can derive the religious experience of each successive step in the service."

The Dean continues, "It is at this point that the chmch usher finds his task, which in general is to so engineer the audience, or congregation, that each individual concerned, the

THE TRIAD

minister, the choir, and the individual worshippers shall have opportunity for full and undistracted participation in the worship service. Thus, the usher's work begins before the worship service starts and continues until the worshipper departs from the church.

The usher appropriately greets the worshipper at the entrance to the sanctuary, ushers him to a pew of his choice, if possible; gives special attention to making visitors feel at home; sometimes takes the offering ; looks after the air conditioning, and to many other less obvious duties, as his training and insight may suggest."

The course is non-denominational.

Dean Hosman has instructed ushers for Catholic, Protestant, and Jewish service. He takes pride in the fact that four "graduates" were ushers in a Buddhist temple.

The discussions in class are strictly informal, thus bringing to light the delicate faux pas problems often confronting and confusing the usher.

In these lectures the Dean explodes misinterpretations of what an usher ought and ought not to do.

Favorite misgivings, both from the usher's standpoint and from the congregation's standpoint, are that the usher opens the church door, exuberantly greets friends returning to the fold, snoopervises instead of supervises when passing the offering plate, and when everyone is seated, ducks out for a smoRe. "The average usher doesn't realize the important -role he plays in the church program," says Dean Hosman.

"An usher can make or break future attendance of a church by his conduct and deportment," he emphasizes.

Brother Hosman will reach his 65th birthday this summer and is retiring from his Deanship August 31. He plans to devote his full time to the church ushering school after that time.

Dean Hosman received his undergradua~e education at Chicago University, and was initiated into Acacia by the Chicago Chapter.

The University of Omaha's College of Adult Education of which Hosman is Dean, got its start back in 1936 and at that time it was the first insti~ tution in the United States to be officially designated as a school for adults. According to Hosman, "The shrinkage of the world through communications and transportation and the problems of international relations have given impetus to adult education in this country."

He attributes the growth of adult education in recent years to the impetus of war and the changing demands of industry. In these days the high school education and even the

Dean Vivian Completes 30,000 Mile Tour Dr. Robert E. Vivian, Charter member of the Southern California Chapter, and Dean of USC's School of Engineering, recently completed a threemonth 30,000 mile tour of the Orient for the Mutual Security Agency. He had been sent by the MSA to Japan, Thailand, Formosa, and Malaya to advise these nations on the latest methods for producing ammunition, ex plosives, and fertilizers .

"Thailand-land of cobras and rivers-is the one bright spot in Asia for democracy," Dean Vivian said.

With continued support from the Western nations, this country could be the bulwark for democracy in the fight against Communism according to Brother Vivian.

"Surrounded as it is by fighting, Thailand is still a peaceful and independent nation," he continued, "but it must have military support."

Its geographical position is of extreme importance to the West because of its closeness to the Malayan struggle, he declared.

The MSA has set up personnel training and economic and industrial expansion as a part of a program t o aid Thailand, Dr. Vivian said.

In Bangkok the dean found a mor e friendly reception to Americans than any other place he knew in Asia.

"Here there is no abject poverty on which the communists can feed ," he said.

About Formosa, he mentioned that Chiang Kai-Shek has brought to the island well-fed and well - d r ess e d troops. The Chinese Nationalist Government, he said, is doing a good job now.

"There are one-half million troops in Formosa-and they are good troops," Dr. Vivian said.

Dean Vivian last year went to Europe for the MSA and visited the Orient during Christmas. Now, after the three month 30,000 mile journey, the Dean will continue his work on r ubber technology at Southern California.

college education is being rapidly outdistanced by the advance of science.

The Dean sees the day when everyone will in one way or another go to school periodically throughout his life.

Brother Hosman has three children, a daughter, Lucille, married and living in Omaha, and two sons, Bob, married and living in Omaha, and Richard, a Lieutenant Colonel, serving with the USAF in Japan. The Dean served as an officer in World War I, and has 26 years in the Reserves with the rank of Major.

Bray Introduces New Bill for Servicemen Congressman William G. Bray, Indiana Acacian, has recently introduced into the house a bill which would require any service branch to notify veterans when they are entitled to receive moneys due them.

What aroused the ire of the Indiana Seventh District Representative w as the fact the Defense Department officials apparently do not inform veterans that the government owes them money.

"The gover nment makes every effort to collect from the ex-ser viceman if it is found overpayment has been made to him in his service pay or allowances," Br ay said.

"If it is found , however, that the veteran is due money , the gover nment does not notify him."

Brother Bray said there is no reason why the ar med for ces can't be as honest in their dealings with the serviceman as he is expected to be with the ar med services.

Congressman Bray is currently serving his second term in the House of Representatives.

tives agreed that Founder's Day was another weekend to look forward to.

Arkansas Founder's Day was celebrated on April 14 with a banquet at which we were fortunate in having Mr. Roy C. Clar k as a guest. In his after dinner speech he gave an extremely interesting resume on the future goals and aspects of Acacia, including plans for expansion and scholarships.

After the conclusion of Mr. Clark's speech Joe Goble announced that his fa.t her, Mr. James E. Goble, had established a scholarship fund of $1,000 to be administered by the Housing Corporation. Naturally we are very grateful towards Mr. Goble for this kind act.

Denver The Rocky Mountain Alumni Association held their annual Founder's Day banquet at the University Club in Denver, Colorado. Alumni from seven chapters, and approximately sixty active members from the three Colorado chapters, Colorado, Denver, and Colorado A . & M., were present.

They were honored to have many distinguished alumni present including two national officers, John A. Lunsford, Second Vice-President, and Roy C. Clark, Executive Secretary.

Representatives of each of the three active chapters present gave reports on the achievements of their respective chapters and Secretary Clark gave a short talk on the advancement of the fraternity as a whole, especially emphasizing the new alumni program.

The principal speaker of the evening was Judge John R. Clark of Denver.

He talked on the principles of Masonic orders and how they were so similar to those on which our nation was founded.

Iowa State Founder's Day at Iowa State was held on Sunday, May 17, with twenty alums present. We were fortunate in having two charter members present: Brothers Mathew 0. Crawford, '10, and J ohn Hug, '09. After renewing old friendships with much informal chatting, we settled down to a sumptuous turkey dinner with all the trimmings. Richard Kust did a wonderful job playing the piano and thus supplying dinner music while we enjoyed the meal.

Richard Jocylen Lt. Richard Jocylen, Syracuse '49, a jet fighter pilot, training for combat in Korea was killed instantly on January 20 when his sabre jet failed to pull out of a power dive and crashed at Nellis Air Force Base, Las Vegas, Nev. Brother Jocylen enlisted as an air cadet in April, 1951, and had been planning to make aeronautical engineering his career after his air force service.

A 1948 graduate of Upper Darby, Pa., High School, he completed his sophomore year at Syr acuse before enlisting.

He took his basic training at Sampson AF Base, Geneva, N. Y., and his pilot training at Columbus AF Base, Miss., and at Webb AF Base, Big Spring, Tex., where he was assigned to the Far Eastern Air Force as a jet fighter pilot and was completing his combat training at Nellis when the tragedy occurred.

Born in Pittsburgh, he had lived in Drexel Hills since he was nine.

He was 22 years old, and is survived by his parents, Mr. and Mrs. Reginald M . Jocylen, and a sister, Nancy, 16.

After dinner, Jerry VerSteegh did his usual fine performance while singing and playing his "uke." Dr. Darrel S . Metcalfe, chapter advisor, then introduced our special guest, Mr. Roy C. Clark, Executive Secretary, who delivered a very fine talk to the group.

One of the very special features of Founder's Day was a bond-burning ceremony which makes our house debt free.

Spring Songfests UCLA Acacians at UCLA saw their fondest wish come true when teaming with Chi Omega Sorority they won the mixed division and also the grand sweepstakes trophies in the annual UCLA Spring Sing. Over 80 groups participated, including fraternities, sororities, and independent groups.

Singing in the famed Hollywood Bowl, with over 5,000 people in attendance, the UCLAcacians and Chi O's under the direction of Brother Skip Mays presented their version of "They Call the Wind Maria."

Not only did Acacia win the sing, but was primarily responsible for running the entire affair. Lee Millard was Sing Chairman, and assistants were Ron Garabedian, John George, and Bob Shaw, all Acacians.

John Payne of motion picture fame was emcee and Ivan Scott's television orchestra played for the event.

Southern California Not to be outdone by their cr oss town rivals, the Southern California Chapter proved that they still deserve

the title of "The 'Singingest' fraternity on the row." Under the direction of N ewte Metfessel, the SC Acacians captured their third Sweepstakes trophy in six years with their rendition of "East of the Sun and West of the Moon." The arrangement was that of Brothers Metfessel, Botkins, and Lyders.

Songfest night could almost have been called Acacia night because the Championship UCLAcacians were guests of the Southern California IFC and gave a special performance of their winning warblings.

Oklahoma OU Acacians captured first place in the All-University Sing with prize winning r enditions of "Shenandoah" and "Oklahoma." Venerable Dean Jim Swain, Drum Major of the Sooner Band, directed the victors and Paul Moore was accompanist.

Already famous across the Sooner State for their " 'Twas the Night Before Christmas" Yuletide serenades, the victory gave the chapter an opportunity to add to its State-wide prestige with TV appearances. Shortly after their campus win, the chapter

The chapter truly sang its way into the hearts of Oklahoma citizens and has been invited to give its Christmas Serenade in Oklahoma City come next December.

New Hampshire Under the direction of Outstanding Senior Ray Matheson, New Hampshire Acacians captured their second consecutive win in the IFC Sing.

Opening with their arrangement of "Oklahoma" and following with the tender love ballad "The Song Is You," the Acacians added another award t o their rapidly filling trophy case.

Indiana Acacians at Indiana teamed w ith Kappa Kappa Gamma Sorority to captur e the All-Indiana Sing. Under the direction of Br other Gene Wilkins, the combined group gave their pr ize winning rendition of Fred Waring's arrangement of "This Is My Country."

Bernhardt New Editor of Daily Northwestern Robert 0. Bernhardt, 21 year old junior in Northwestern's Medill School of Journalism has been appointed Editor-in-Chief of the Daily Northwesten~. The appointment climaxes an outstanding career of activities in high school and college for Bob. A native of Rochester, Pennsylv ania , Bob attended Rochester High School where he was president of the senior class, editor of the yearbook, spor ts editor of the school paper, a varsity athlete, a member of the student council, and "principal fo r a day."

He enrolled at Northwestern in the fall of 1950, pledged Acacia, and was initiated into the Fraternity in January of 1951. He began working with the Daily Northweste1¡n during his freshman year, and served as a reporter for football , basketball, track, and wrestling. He became sports night editor, news night editor, and in December, 1952, he became managing editor. He held this position for 17

months before rece1vmg his appointment as Editor-in-Chief.

In 1952 he was initiated into Sigma Delta Chi, national professional journalism fraternity, as the youngest initiate in the history of the fraternity.

Bob began his newspapering in the sixth grade, writing sandlot sports and school news for the Beaver Valley Times, Beaver, Pa. The paper had a daily circulation of 20,000. In the eighth grade he became an official part time sports reporter and covered high school and smalL college athletic events.

Not all of Bob's time has been devoted to journalism, however. He is one of Acacia's leading intramural athletes, participating in football, basketball, softball, swimming, and volleyball. This past season he won the scoring championship for the Northwestern Intramural Basketball League. In addition to being an active participant, he also served as intramural manager. In 1952 he was the Chapter's rushing chairman.

Bob is paying part of his way through school with a scholarship, a board job, and other outside work.

In the summer he works in a Pittsburgh steel mill. In spite of all these time consuming activities, he has still maintained a B ¡ average throughout his college career.

He has a brother coming to NU next fall, and Bob believes it should be quite an interesting rush week.

Michigan Acacians Grab Top Journalism Spots The Michigan Chapter is especially proud of Brothers Harry Lunn and Kingsley Joneson for their recent attainments of prominence in journalis: tic activities on the University of Michigan campus.

Harry Lunn was appointed to the position of managing editor of the Michigan Daily, one of the outstanding college newspapers in the country. Harry is a D etroiter who pledged Acacia in the Spring semester of 1951.

He is an economics major in the College of Literature, Science, and the Arts, and will graduate in 1954.

As a freshman, Harry was initiated into Phi Eta Sigma, honorary fraternity for freshman students. As a sophomore, he was tapped for Sphinx, the J unior Honorary Society of the University of Michigan. He was also initiated into the Scabbard and Blade Society, for outstanding work as an R.O.T.C. student. Now, he is a member of Michiguama, the all-campus senior honorary society.

Harry is known not only for his active participation and prominence in the journalistic world of the Michigan campus, but also for his love of classical music, and his esoteric taste in art. He has been able, in spite of outstanding work in extracurricular

activities, to maintain a high scholastic standing.

Kingsley Joneson was recently appointed editor-in-chief of the Michigan Technic, the Engineering publication of the University of Michigan campus. Kingsley is a native of Muskegon, Michigan, and is better known

around the house as "Moosely."

Kingsley is in the class of 1954 in the Engineering College. He is specializing in industrial engineering. He pledged Acacia in February, 1951, and has since been noted as one of the terrors at the annual pledge-active football game.

Kingsley is especially notorious for his proof-reading dates, a keen ability to combine both business and pleasure. Leaving Technic activities for a time, however, he was seen marching during the last football season in the ranks of the outstanding Michigan Marching Band. Kingsley was recently honored by the tapping of Triangles, the Engfueering Honor Society. Our best wishes are extended to him for success in his new position in the coming year.

S C Chapter Crowns a Queen Following the tradition started last year, the Southern California Chapter crowned an eleven year old crippled girl as queen of the "Night on the Nile" spring formal in Santa Monica. The girl, Barbara Jean Harms, had been stricken with polio for a year.

Varying from choosing a co-ed, but fulfilling the motto of the fraternity, "Human Service," the SC chapter presented the girl with various gifts ranging from clothes to a huge Teddy bear.

Barbara, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Benjamin Harms of Delano, California, who were also guests, rode to the formal in a new dress donated by the SC Acacia Mother's club. She had a police escort from the March of Dimes Orthopedic Hospital to the formal and arrived in a new Ford donated for the occasion by a downtown dealer.

The brothers and their dates were silent as Barbara wa!) wheeled onto the dance floor in a new wheelchair donated by an anonymous benefactor, but her charming smile immediately put guests at ease and she was living in her Cinderella hour.

After Venerable Dean Harley Hartman crowned her queen of the "Night on the Nile" formal and the house sang the sweetheart song to her, Barbara was presented with a defense bond, a wrist watch, Teddy bear, doll, slippers, and various articles of clothing.

But as in all dreams, her's too had to come to an end. However much she enjoyed the evening, she was still sick and frail and had to return to the hospital. And she did, tired but happy.

Santee Sets Mark for American Mile Wes Santee, the Kansas distance ace set the new American Mile Record, covering the distance in a fast 4:02.4. The time was precisely one second off the world record time set

by Sweden's Gunder Haag in 1945.

It was the climax of another great track season for the Olympic Ace. W es, already holder of the American records in the two-thirds mile and three-quarter mile distances, and holder of the NCAA 5,000 meter record, shattered previous marks in almost every meet he competed in during the past year.

Last winter he set the new Big Seven mark for cross country as he led his Jayhawk mates to another title in this event. At the Big Seven indoor meet, W es cracked both the half-mile and the mile records.

During the outdoor season he led the Jayhawks to victories in the Texas , Kansas, and Drake relays, and in the Conference meet he shattered again the half-mile ami mile records.

The latter, a sparkling 4:06.3 was not only a Conference mark, but broke the American Collegiate standard previously held by Kansan Glenn Cunningham.

Wes's main trouble in all of his meets was the lack of competition.

He was in a class by himself. It's hard for a man to push himself to the utmost, when he is several hundred yards in front of his nearest

competitor. As a result, it was only natural that W es welcomed the chance that was given him in the Compton (Calif.) Invitational Meet. Here was to be gathered the world's greatest milers, including Belgium's Gaston Reiff, world's record holder in the two mile run and also at the 2,000 and 3,000 meter distances, and former Purdue star, Denis J ohansson , Finland's national titleholder. Most of the current American top-notchers were also entered. Many sportscasters had predicted that the competition would be too rough and that Santee's best would not be good enough.

For a while it looked like they might be right, for as the first quar ter ended, Reiff w as out in front with a 62.7 second first quarter, and during the second quarter Johansson jumped to the front with a 2: 05.2 half. The Ashland Antelope with the long stride for which he is famou s then put on a burst of speed that left the field behind him. He shot past the three-quarter distance in 3:03.5 and reeled off the last qua r ter in a blistering 0: 58.9 to break the tape in 4: 02.4. It was the fastest mile ever run by an American.

Only 20 years old, with another full season of college competition ahead of him, Wes should continue his record shattering' performances next year, and if he should run into the right conditions, it's not too hard to believe that the gentlemanly Kansas 113

Acacian will be the first to record a mile in less than four minutes.

Arizona Arizona Chapter's annual Nigh t on the Nile costume and dinner dance was held at El Rancho Rillito, a guest ranch, hidden among the cactus-covered hills around Tucson. A steak dinner was served to the gayly costumed Egyptians, as they knelt or sat cross-legged on cushions around tables raised only . two inches above the floor. Atmospheric Egyptian scenery and the music of the Sophist-0-Cats helped to make the evening a resounding success.

On Saturday, May 2, neophytes James Spagon, of Gila Bend, and Harold Tracy, of Newport Beach , Cal., were initiated as active members of Arizona Chapter. After the initiation the chapter adjourned to

Banquet, Acacians David Grove, and Carl Berninger were honored by being elected to Sophos, sophomore honorary for men, in recognition for their fine work in their freshman year. Senior Dean John Tverberg, a member of Sophos for the pa~t two semesters, was elected to the Cham Gang, junior men's honorary. Also, John Garrett, U. of A. Band member, was elected to Kappa Kappa Psi, honorary band fraternity, and Venerable Dean James Warkomski was recently appointed to the University Bookstore Committee.

California With the last few weeks of the semester in sight, the a ctive chapter at Cal can look back over a successful term. The following were elected as officers for the corning fall semester: Ted Nelson, Venerable Dean ; Bob Montgomery, Senior Dean ; Mal Zirker, Junior Dean ; Ed Wachsman, House Manager; Al Bison, Treasurer ; and John Loring, as Recording Secretary.

Socially we have had a great semester.

Our Pledge Formal in May will end up the semester before finals start. The graduating seniors are also planning a couple of get-togethers before the big day of graduation. One of them is the traditional Senior Dinner on the last week of school. This year with 11 actives graduating it should be quite an affair.

This semester our intramural baseball team finished •in the semi-finals. Mal Zirker headed the pitching staff and much of the credit of the team's success was on his shoulder. The horseshoe team also did well this time ending pretty close to the top of the league.

Colorado chapter finished out the 1952-53 school year in grand style by actively participating in many university and fraternity functions. Among these are the annual Colorado U. Days, the spring tea, and the climaxing spring formal.

In anticipation of rather heavy losses of active members to graduation and to the armed forces, Colorado chapter has undertaken a rather extensive rushing program under the leadership of Lynn Hammond. Seven new men have been pledged to raise the total size of the pledge class to fifteen. The new pledges are: Clyde Babcock, Colorado Springs; William Brock, Oak Park, Illinois; Merrill Hough, Boulder, Colorado; Jeremy Jagger, Honolulu, Hawaii ; Arthur Neuman, Closter, New Jersey ; Peter Story, Bozeman, Montana; and James Williams, Palo Alto, California.

Two of this year's newly elected officers, Robert Schmoll, Senior Dean, and Ralph Ross, Treasurer, announced that they would be unable to return to school next fall. Howard Sauer was elected to the Senior Dean post and Robert Hartsfield was selected to be the new Treasurer.

The annual presentation of awards to

outstanding members found Past Venerable Dean Robert Baird taking both the outstanding senior and outstanding activities awards. Richard Hoffmeister walked off with the scholastic award and A1 Johnson, newly elected Junior Dean, was selected as the outstanding initiate of the year.

Socially, Colorado chapter has made great gains throughout the 1952-53 school year. The last three big activities went off with outstanding success. This year's spring tea was attended by 325 faculty, alumni, parents and other guests to make an all time success of the annual event.

Wonderful weather, much hard work on the part of the housemother, Mrs. Mildred Glynn, and the high reputation the fraternity has gained from past years' teas were all contributing factors to the success of the event. Colorado U. Days brought the Colorado chapter another first place trophy to add to its growing collection. This was for its float in the annual parade. The float, following the theme "Road to Rome" was Caesar in a horse drawn chariot followed by Cleopatra in a litter. Other Colorado U. Days activities included grudge fights with other fraternities and sororities, in which Acacia came out battered and victorious.

The climaxing event of the year was the annual spring formal. The dance was held in the house which was very realistically decorated on the inside to represent a garden patio in the light of a spring moon. The fraternity also took this opportunity to give pinning serenades to two girls who do not live in Boulder.

Colorado chapter is proud of its achievements of the past year, and is looking forward to having an even better and more prosperous one next year.

Cornell Activities have sounded the keynote for Cornell Acacia's Spring Term. Our skit, "Rad Bunyon Footman No. 2," put on for Fraternity Night at Willard Straight was the talk of the campus for several days. Its unusual cleverness was attributed to the combined efforts of Rod Munsey and Lew Mathews. The same week our house sponsored a campuswide "Beer and Band" party, held at scenic Enfield Park. Although typical rainy Ithaca weather prevailed, a good crowd with undampened spirits turned out to make the party a huge success.

Spring Weekend arrived with dancing in a "Southern Garden" to the music of Charlie Spivak and Skitch Henderson.

Again Acacia attained fame with our strength machine ("See if you are as strong as Pogo!") at the Spring Carnival, and a whale of a float entitled "Minnie the Mermaid."

Our Spring term sports got off to a good start with Joe Wilford and Marv Townsend winning the inter-fraternity horseshoe championship. Then they played pledges Jack Cooper and John Hoare, who had won the independent championship under an assumed name, and copped the University championship.

The softball team, under the able management of Rod Munsey, won three out of its four le.a gue games. It also tri-

umphed 13-5 in the annual game with the Syracuse chapter. The De Vesty trophy now rests proudly on our mantel-where we plan to keep it for several years.

In addition to our success in intramural sports, we're proud that brothers Lem Wingard and Tom Burrows led Cornell crews to victory as coxswains on the varsity and freshman boats respectively.

As June approached, we bid farewell to thirteen graduating seniors, most of whom plan to enjoy the fruits of their ROTC courses as officers for Uncle Sam. Spring rushing drew to a close with the pledging of Frank Herman Henjes, Moravia, N. Y., Hugh Eppich Kingery, Denver, Colorado, and Wright Wolcott Salisbury, Valley Stream, N.Y. Although these men bring the total number of Spring pledges up to ten, rushing will have to be intensified in the Fall to replace the large class of graduates. Needless to say, recommendations of prospective Comell Acacians will be heartily welcomed.

Franklin At Franklin Chapter we have been quite busy-social activities, scholastic work, and house painting thrown in when we can find time.

On April 18 we celebrated our annual Spring Formal, which was preceded by a most enjoyable turkey dinner. Decorations, originated and initiated by Brother Herald Enders and Marty Weaver, were of a spring-time terrace theme.

Of course we celebrated the famed Skimmer Day here at Pennsylvania on May 2 by joining the other thirty-seven Penn fraternities along the Schuylkill banks to witness the crew races and to enjoy the traditional gala social gathering. Subsequently we had an indoor "picnic-party," in view of the fact weather conditions forced us to forego our picnic plans.

Franklin Chapter was well represented at Pennsylvania's Ivy Ball on May 15.

As usual, the ball was preceded by a dinner in the chapter house. This was followed on May 16 by a gala Sadie Hawkins party which was characterized

by some most unique original costumes.

On May 9 Franklin Chapter held its annual Alumni Banquet, after which the success story of New Hampshire Chapter was told by our guest speaker, Mr. W. Martin Delbrouck.

Franklin Chapter was again awarded the Pi Gamma Mu Scholarship award on May 15 for having attained the highest scholastic average of any other social fraternity on the Pennsylvania campus.

Incidentally the race provides a total of 142 scholarships at $100 each for students of I.U. who have been working to help finance their education. The race is managed by the Indianapolis Motor Speedway. Each of the thirty-three qualifiers are sponsored by leading business firms all over the state.

"Better things for a better campus through cooperation" moved us onward to chalk up one more as the best slogan pertaining to Greek Week. The slogan was set in a back-ground of Greed letters. Greek Week, Help Week, Jr. PanHell, IFPC, Pan-Hell, and IFC were represented in smaller signs at the base of the slogan.

The House Spirit Committee which started as a joke and which was later officially delegated as a functioning committee at fraternity meeting, was the direct result of our coveted YMCA turtle derby trophy. The HSC campaigned, the whole house turned out (posters, organized yells, etc.) , and although none of our turtle entrys placed in any of the heats, the "Best Cheer and Attendance" trophy is now in our "little monster stock pile." The different housing units which purchased turtles were simultaneously sponsoring one of the underprivileged children of Bloomington to attend summer camp.

Our social committee came through on Mother's Day with a program that should turn into an annual event. We

Indiana Have you heard? Organized units on the ole I.U. campus have been scouring the countryside high and low for quite some time now. It's rumored that the potent ingredients to a certain Acacia chapter's cloak of invincibility can be found thereabouts, that is, if one looks hard enough.

More ideas have been brewing in the old mansion here at the corner of Third and Fess Streets than have for some time.

Since the last issue, in fact in a period of six weeks, we have added four new trophys to our ever-increasing collection.

Undoubtedly the most outstanding of our triumphs was in an event that has n<!lw won nation-wide attention, Indiana University's third annual "Little 500" bicycle race. A great quartet of Acacians finished second best out of a field of thirty-three qualifiers . Our foursome burned Memorial stadium's quarter-mile track, the whole race consisting of twohundred laps or fifty miles, at a better than twenty miles per hour clip for the long run average. Hats off to Russ Judd, junior from Evansville; John Derome,

combined with eleven sororities and five other fraternities on ice cream, cake, and talent galore for a most enjoyable evening for our mothers. Japanese lanterns and pennants decorated our front lawn for over 2000 spectators that night! A "Mother of the Year" was crowned and presented roses by Colonel R. L. Shoemaker, our Dean of Students, as a elirna: to the evening's festivities. As a result our Mother's Club boosted chances threefold for new electric dishwashing units for this fall.

For recreation, Ted Schnormeier donated a ping-pong table. Allen Thomas and Ted Schnormeier made an "Acacia" sign which hangs over the entrance.

On the social side we have had a few mixers with various sororities throughout the semester but the highlight was the annual "Sweetheart Formal." It was held at the Jefferson Hotel on May 1 and the music was supplied by Larry Barretts' combo. The girl voted "Sweetheart of Acacia" w as Miss Caryl Van de Houten, Chi Omega. Caryl was presented a bouquet of roses and was serenaded by a quartet consisting of; David Koerner, Edwin Carlson, Ted Schnormeier, and Allen Thomas.

Acacia is proud of its three outstanding seniors; David Hall, Dona ld Wallace, and Thomas A. Brown. Don was editor of the Hawkeye, the University year book, while Dave was active in radio announcing at WSUI. Tom has received numerous awards for his campus leadership

Mother's Day was observed with a banquet at the Chapter House on May 3. A large number of the parents were present.

It seems we are getting closer and closer to that new chapter house that we have been striving to get built. In our Founder's Day Banquet on May 9 the Alumni Association approved the completion of the working drawings on the proposed house.

John Breuthor was honored by Gamma Sigma Delta, Honorary Agriculture Society, for having the highest grades among the "Ag" sophomores. He was also initiated into Alpha Zeta, Honorary Agriculture Fraternity. Wayne Theis received honorable mention from Phi Kappa Phi, Honorary Scholastic Fraternity.

Miami Three men were recently pledged by the Miami Chapter. They are Jack Heck, Marshal McCoy, and John Swanson.

Dick Lotz received a trophy for the highest average in the league and Ron Sullivan was awarded a placque for rolling the highest three game total.

The Fraternity's annual Nite on the Nile was acclaim~d the best party in the chapter's history. The evening of festivities started when the brothers, in "Egyptian" costumes paraded to the women's dorms. Dinner was then served on the floor at the house before the dance. One of the highlights of the evening occurred when the lights of Oxford went out. The band paraded thru the streets with the brothers and their dates forming a snake line behind.

Three members of the chapter recently received top awards on campus. Mark Witt was initiated into Omicron Delta Kappa, men's recognition society. Bill Bauer was elected to Student-Faculty council by a landslide vote and Dick Lotz was named Sports Editor of the Miami Student, campus semi-weekly publication.

Acacians at Michigan have been busy since the spring vacation putting final touches on a very successful year, and winding up things in general. To add that touch of finesse to the Spring season,

THE TRIAD

Brother Bill Strickler busied himself with the assistance of our cook, Mrs. Day, in building a rock garden in the backyard.

Just a bid for Cypress Gardens.

After weeks of rehearsals under the tireless efforts of Brother Roy Wetterholt, Michigan Acacia was proud to capture the fourth spot in the Interfraternity Council Sing, part of the Greek Week activities on campus. With the Fred Waring arrangement of "You'll Never Walk Alone," the chapter had the women crying and the judges applauding. Bigger and better plans along this line are already being formulated for next year.

Also as part of the Greek Week festivities, Acacians had a pre-dance dinner at the chapter house. As always, the cook's outstanding achievements were the main topic of discussion, this time-filet mignon.

Between the Spring Pledge Formal and I .F.C. Ball it was not too uncommon to find Acacians partaking of the beauty of Nickel's Arboretum while socializing. The rationale is, of course, in the Spring a young man's fancy turns to love.

Acacians at Michigan are especially proud of the achievements of the individual brothers, which are recognized on the campus at this time of the year.

Sporting Phi Beta Kappa keys along with their black and gold triangles are John McKnight and Larry Sweet. Jim Douglas was initiated into Phi Kappa Phi, and David Dow into Kappa Kappa Psi, the national music honorary fraternity.

On May 10 the annual Acacia Parent's day was held. Officers ¡ of the Mother's Club for the coming year were elected.

The parents donated some money to help pay for cups.

This Spring the alumni board financed a much needed rewiring of the house.

Included in the improvements were : new outlets in many of the rooms; entire rewiring of the basement study room; and new light fixtures in "Lincoln's Lounge," most of the closets, and the ping-pong room. The chapter is very pleased to have these improvements made.

With the Spring Quarter comes the traditional Campus Carnival. This year Acacia teamed with Alpha Chi Omega to sponsor the "Temperance Tavern."

Despite the fact that the S. A. B . closed up our Salvation Army Band and that most of the work was done the last two nights before the carnival, our act was a rousing success.

The annual spring formal was h eld at the Northwood Country Club this year.

The pledges supplied intermission entertainment with a parody on John and Marcia. Other social events of the Spring Quarter included trade desserts with Phi Mu and Alpha Xi Delta, the Canoe Party, the DeMolay Dance and numerous missions to Lindy's.

In the spring a young man's fancy turns to . . . summer?? If the young man happens to be a fraternity man, he thinks quite seriously about summer, for it is during the summer months, when classes are out and everyone is enjoying himself, that the rush program for the next school year has to be set up, if it is to b e successful. Our rush program, here at O.S.U., is under the capable direction of Dean R. "Otis" Keller, our newly elected Rushing Chairman.

The other new officers elected spring quarter include: Vaughn E.

Discussing chapter affairs at the Northwestern Spring formal are (L. to R.) Venerable Deans Dale Reistad, Wise., Dick Poppe!, Northwestern, and Don Mueller, Ill. (Above) Northwesterners and guests get together lor the Bunny Hop. The formal was held at the beautiful Tam O'Shanter Country Club.

at our Founder's Day, which was held at the chapter house on May 9. Possibilities for getting a new house in the near future were discussed, and the alumni were told of an agreement made by the active chapter with the Curtis Circulation Company, by which subscriptions to popular magazines are taken through the chapter, and, at no extra cost to the subscriber, the chapter is to receive 30 per cent to 50 per cent on each subscription or renewal. The proceeds from this campaign will be placed in a "House Fund" and will help us realize our long-sought-after n~w chapter house.

Pledged during spring quarter were: R. Jerry Freeman, and Jesse E. Rupert, both from Wapakoneta, Ohio. Jerry is enrolled in Pre-Med, and Jesse is in Engineering.

All-Ohio Acacia Day was held in Oxford, Ohio, the home of Miami chapter.

Ohio State chapter turned out "en masse" for this event, held Saturday and Sunday, May 16 and 17. The Miami chapter held their annual Night 9n the Nile party on Saturday night, and a number of the Ohio State brethren attended, with dates very generously suppled by Murray Whitaker, the Miami chapter Junior Dean. Thanks, Murray. The annual baseball game was held Sunday afternoon, with everyone having a good time playing, watching, shouting "Kill the umpire," and just milling around in general.

The spring formal was held Friday, May 22 in the Penthouse Rooms of the Fort Hayes Hotel. Music for our formal was supplied by Grant Stevens' band, and a "good time was had by all" to sum up the completely successful evening in one old, worn-out sentence.

Oklahoma The Oriental Ball, oldest costume ball

OF ACACIA

on the campus, was held on March 14.

The house was decorated in Oriental style and was so completely done that the house was hardly recognizable. Much credit goes to Jerry Dixon, our Junior Dean for a splendid job of planning.

Following the Oriental, our Spring Formal was held April 18 at the new Lockett Hotel in Norman. A number of rushees attended the dance. The dance was a tremendous success.

And, of course, we had time for our rush weekends and parties. On May 16 and 17 we had rushees visiting the house from most of the state. The Alpha Chi Omega sorority presented a skit on the evening of the 17th for rushees and members alike. After the skit, dates were arranged, and we had a party here at the house. Later in the evening, after the dates had been taken home, we had a stag party for the rushees. We met a number of good rushees, and hope to make them members one of these days.

Oklahoma A & M¡ With the prospect of a delayed rush facing them, the Oklahoma A & M Chapter of Acacia has been very active the past two months in their rushing.

The Acacians from Aggieland have made their presence felt this year in intramural sports, with Bill Ricks in basketball and Don Thomas in volleyball both being selected on the all-college intramural teams in those two sports, and Bobbie Weems won a first and three seconds in the intra-fraternity track meet.

Top social event of the spring was the annual Triangle Ball, with approximately 50 couples present for the banquet and dance. Several alumns were present and it was one of the most successful dances ever held by the local chapter.

Sunday, May 3 was parents' day and a buffet dinner was held in the chapter house for the visiting parents. The fol lowing Sunday was Founder's Day and a banquet was held in honor of our alumns at a local supper club. Martin Schmidt, Roy Kiser, and Ron Jones, actives, made short speeches on the chapter.

Oregon State Men initiated were: John Titus '54, Ed Lance '55, John Mathews '56, and Ben Stephenson '56. One man was pledged, Douglas Taylor '56, who is a Naval R.O.T .C. student from Mena, Arkansas.

The Alpha Phi fishpond was initiated this spring with the dunking of incoming Thane, John Mathews '56. The instigator, who was outgoing Thane Ormond Steele '55, also received a little surprise when he hit the water also.

Founder's Day was observed May 17.

A relatively small group gathered for the luncheon and events. Brother Ron Bartley was awarded the trophy for the

119

outstanding senior contributing most to the house and Brother Jack Pimentel received the trophy for the senior with the highest scholastic department. The "Tall tales" for the bull slinging award w ere especially good this year with Ed Lance '55 coming out in front of the pack.

Purdue The Purdue chapter has added two new men to its spring pledge class. They are David Cooper, South Bend, Indiana ; and J oe Jones, Camden, Indiana. · · On April 12, 1953, eight new men received the Acacia pin.

The appearance of the chapter room has been greatly improved by the addition of a new coat of paint to the floor and new curtains to the windows. The new neophy tes have donated their efforts in redecorating the game room.

The Purdue chapter is unusually prominent in campus activities this spring. Jim Golan was elected director of the Interfraternity Council office and secretary of the council. Max Judge was elected president of Hoof and Horn Club, president of the collegiate 4-H, and managing editor of the Agriculturalist . Marvin Schmidt is now clerical chairman of the Interfraternity Council, and Herbert Ulrich was elected president of the Catalyst Club.

Bruce Howland was named Senior Announcer at WBAA, and w as initiated into the Kappa Psi honorary . "Randy" Wilkinson founde d the Purdue Jazz Society.

Our first important social event of the season was a formal dance which we shared with the Alpha Chi Rho fraternity. It was held at the Lafayette Country Club on April 25. On May 2 we participated in the annual Bat Boat race. The forty mothers who took over the house for Mother's Day were entertained by the University Sing, in which our chapter took part.

Grand Marshall week was rained out to some extent this year but Friday night was as good as ever. The house entered a float in the competition. The theme was American history and we used the Monroe Doctrine of hands off with Marilyn Monroe as our interpretation. Something new was added this year with a little bust in the gym preceding the annual beer bust on North field. Soiree weekend was one of the best ever, with our party room decorated as a Paris sidewalk cafe with Bob Mortlock painting murals to decorate the walls. Several alumni were present for the dance, namely John Winter, Johnny Down and Ron Voight.

wit, never have a hay ride on a main boulevard, it just ain't romantic. Never to be forgotten was the formal at the Mirmar Hotel in Santa Monica. In addition to our queen contest, Brothers Ken Davis (he was 21 that night) and Jerry Wenzel (he wasn't) took an impromptu dip (aided by a few brothers) in the swimming pool with full tux on. Tsk, tsk, they didn't look like Esther Williams.

Dinner exchanges with the Thetas, Pi Phi's, Gamma Phi's, Chi O's and Kappas helped us forget our studies.

Just as a foot note, the pledge active game ended 18-6 in favor of the actives (as usual ) in a clash loosly termed as football. The pledges proved themselves even much less athletes by showing only three men for the pledge relays after what they termed a "successful ditch."

Being located at the corner of University and 28th St., the center of the SC row, Acacia was naturally in the middle of the "heat craze raids" recently. However the brothers of Troy did not take part in the fun time, but did throw a couple of spotlights on the 150 foot geyser of water from the fire hydrant across the street. Just like Niagara.

Many of the brothers are going to the east this summer for ROTC training, so be on the lookout for Trojan Warriors.

The "draft" is catching, and the '53 pigskin squad is loaded, so looking forward to more skins in the fall.

Things have really be€n popping here at S.C. Between the smog and panty raids, the Black and Gold has found time to delve into almost every campus activity except the YWCA (and Brother Foreman is pinned to the president). After completing the greatest Founder's Day banquet ever held, at Ciro's on the Sunset Strip in Hollywood no less, the brothers settled down to point to songfest and campus elections.

Awards we won included first place in bowling, and proving that fraternity are red blooded, we "gave" enough to walk off with the All-U. blood trophy with a percentage of 87 per cent for the third straight semester to retire the plaque.

THE TRIAD

Founder's day exercises brought honors to our chapter. Seniors marching in the procession were Brothers Ld Elmer Bliss, Rick Milne, Jim Keegan, Vince Currier, Peter Spalding, and Duane Valine. Brothers George Hansen and Allan Tyler were elected to the Gold Key Sophomore Honorary Society.

During the last week in April we entered the Interfraternity Sing. We were represented by every member of the house as we sang Acacia Dream Girl and You'll Never Walk Alone.

Other interfraternity functions we have entered are softball and the Junior Week Peerade. Our theme was based on an operetta later produced by the University Players entitled The Low Land Sea. Our float was a rock island, and sitting on it dressed as mermaids, and painted green were Brother Ld Bliss, and pledges Kwong Chow, Norman Steavens, and Tom Dolan.

Vermont chapter is proud to announce the election of Brother George Hansen as president of the class of 1956 for the remainder of this year and next year.

George is Senior Dean of our Fraternity and was one of the winning walkers of this year's Kake Walk. He is a very infiuencial in the university and fraternity affairs, and is a great asset to our chapter.

Brother Peter Spalding has been elected chairman of senior week which begins June 10. Pete was also voted outstanding senior Acacian earlier this year.

He is graduating this year, and his loss will be deeply felt in the following school term.

Plans are now being made and executed for our spring formal "Night on the Nile" to be held at the chapter house on May 15. Egyptian costume is required and the house is being decorated accordingly.

The members of Vermont Chapter feel that this has been the best year in our history. We look forward to even more success and continued prominence on the campus of The University of Vermont.

Acacians at the Vermont IFC Sing

Washington Introductions are in order for our new actives: Stan Bergman, Kennewick; Verne McCorkle, Kelso ; Paul Mitten, Longview; and Jim Sutter, Kelso. These wearers of the triangle, all from Washington, were initiated the first week of Spring Quarter.

Regimental Commander Alan McAllister will lead the two Army ROTC battallions that participate in the important Governor's Day parade at the University May 22. Alan, a senior, was recently initiated into Phi Beta Kappa. He will receive his Army commission June 13, 1953.

On the road to fraternity leadership here at Washington, Acacia entered a group in the annual A.M.S. Songfest.

After much practice and sweat, our group breezed through the preliminaries and began the long grind toward the finals May 23. Our capable leader, Ron Hendry, a senior, has devoted long hours of planning while keeping one eye on the magnificent 1st place trophy and the other on the music. Win or lose, we owe a great deal to Ron for his untiring efforts.

Decorations reigned supreme for our annual Spring Formal held at the Inglewood country club May 2. Following a magnificent dinner, we danced to the music of Bob Hawk and had a chance to exchange chit-chat with alums that were present. Stan Bergeman and Verne McCorkle, first year actives, provided the spark and enthusiasm needed in the planning of a very successful dance.

Also on the social calendar were the Tri Delt and Lambda Sigma Chi exchanges. We traveled to the College of Puget Sound in Tacoma for the latter exchange. In an effort to start a new tradition, an overnight picnic was held at Beaver Lake May 16-17. Although the weatherman disappointed us, those present had a very fine time. We'll have a bigger and better one next year.

Although it hasn't been previously reported, a new member of Acacia was pledged this quarter. He eats a ton of horsemeat each day, but makes up for it by guarding the house at night. We call him Thor, but he is indifferent to the name. George Lavenson, among others, deserves credit for the pledging of the dog. He is Chesapeake-Pyrenees ; the dog -not George.

The chapter and alumni will be busy this summer preparing for the regional to be held for all West Coast Chapters in September.

Angle had hair and Bm¡due had his home brew. With M.C. Cliff Bjorgan around to keep things hopping, along with Frank Scott's clever ( ?) jokes and Venerable Dean Gowing's tippling humor, it was a fast moving affair. Ed Henry, George Hall, and George Davidson of course had several brilliant comments to add to the scene, as did Chapter Advisor Richards and the never-quiet Bullus Texanus, Mark Andrews, mayor of Rose Valley. One highlight of the evening was the delicious dinner, prepared by the cook with the help of the first year men and the traffic cop and head waiter, Verne McCorkle. Brother Gowing stuttered through his state of the union message, and managed to remember that the outstanding Acacia award went to the most deserving Ron Hendry, past V.D. , and the outstanding senior award to Phi Beta Kappa, AI McAllister. A new award initiated this year, for the outstanding pledge, went to Don Swisher, chairman of the banquet. The final and most touching event of the eve¡ning was the awarding of the Bullus Texanus to that Texas Longhorn, Ed Opstad, Jr. (His father, Ed, Sr., class of '27, says it is not hereditary.) After that, all shoveled their way out of the chapter room and decided they had quite an evening of it, at least enough to last till next year.

Ohio State The Ohio State chapter of Acacia Fraternity held their annual Founder's Day on Saturday, May 9, at the chapter house. Among the alumni present was Mr. Clyde J . Knisely, one of our founders.

Alums and actives gathered to re new old friendships and discuss fraternity operation now as compared with the "good old days." A delicious banquet highlighted the week end.
