Acacia Triad - May 1966 - Vol. 61, No. 3

I wish to express my ap p reciation to all those Cha pters that sent me material this quarter. I ha ve included all items received in time and judged appropriate in the " Triad Times" section . The large volume of mate ria l sent in demonstrates that Acacian s are on the move in many places .. . How about hearin g from the rest of you ? We can all be proud of the achievements of other Cha pters-as well as our own.

I am also p lea sed with the generally fa vorable respon se I have received rega rding t he new orientation of the Triad. A s is evidenced by this issue, a great deal of diversity is still possibl e within the general guidelines of a fraternity-oriented policy.

From Vietnam to Purdue, a wide range of topics is covered in th is issue. Th is policy, however, requires the Editor to depend more upon material submitted by various Chapters and interested Alu mni. There fore, I encourage continued communication; I wi ll attempt to keep in touch wit h al l of you. Together we can make the Triad a powerful voice for Acacia .

Nine-hundred initiates since its 1907 founding, outgrowing two Chapter houses, Chapter members in virtually every major campus activity . . . these and other accomplishments give evidence of the success story of the Purdue Chapter of 1966. "While we are pretty sure that a trophy isn't the best indication of Chapter accomplishment," a Purdue Acacian reports, "we are proud of our record on campus . . . ." Even without its trophy case, the Purdue Chapter record is evident. It seems proper, therefore, for the TRIAD to present a resume of some of the activities and motivating factors behind such a success story-

Rush One of the strongest features of the Purdue Chapter is its rush program. In the words of one Acacian at Purdue, "the strength in the fraternity system requires both individual and Chapter responsibility. For this reason, fraternity rush has maintained a position of utmost importance." The underlying philosophy behind rush at Purdue is "act natural." It seems to have worked. This Chapter reports that over the years a 25-30 man pledge class has been formed, without sacrificing quality for quantity. During the past year a 25 man pledge class was established-while competing

-PURDUE against other top houses on campus and maintaining a remarkable 90% acceptance of invitations to pledge.

During the formal rush period in the fall semester men choose specific houses to visit on designated days. This is followed by a somewhat inactive period which is terminated by the climax of rush: the first three weeks of the second semester. During this time rush is completely open and men are invited to pledge.

When talking to rushees, Purdue Acacians emphasize the closeness of their Chapter and stress the importance of the founding principles. True brotherhood cannot be superficial and it does not take long for the rushee to sense the real spirit of the Chapter.

The rushing technique found most effective at Purdue is the "personal system." This consists of having each man working on two or three rushees. This Acacian is held responsible for these rushees and invites them to the house whenever possible. During this period the brother's main objective is to become so well acquainted with the rushee that the possibility of a refusal to join becomes highly unlikely. To sum up, rush at Purdue is built upon a system of natural spontaneity and individual rapport.

Activities This year, as in the past, Acacia at Purdue has continued to serve ¡ the campus by producing leaders in extracurricular activities. In the past three years there have been four Acacians elected to member-

ship in Iron Key, Purdue's highest honor to senior men for service to the University. Acacians were among the charter members of the Purdue Circle of Omicron Delta Kappa and each year finds one or more Acacians among those selected for this national honor. Of the sixty or so members of the Gimlet Club, an honorary for junior and senior men involved in varsity athletics and campus activity, eight are Acacians.

Acacians at Purdue recognize the potential of the Greek system and participate enthusiastically on both the Interfraternity President's Council and the IFC Board. At the present time Acacians hold positions on both the junior and senior Boards of the IFC as well as supplying sophomore and freshman participants.

Purdue Acacians also hold positions of responsibility and leadership in other campus activities. For example, two of the twenty-one positions on the Purdue Student Union Board are filled by Acacians.

The Purdue ExponentJ the student daily newspaper, boasts both a senior and junior editor from the Chapter. Another brother is a junior editor of the Purdue DebrisJ the University annual.

Elsewhere on campus Acacians are found in varsity and intramural athletics, as cheerleaders, in class government, and in many other activities.

Scholarship As it should be, scholarship awareness is becoming more crucial in the eyes of Acacians at Purdue. Primarily due to an extensive rush system, the all fraternity index has dropped below the all men's index for the third semester. Realizing this deplorable situation, Acacians on this campus promise ". . . an intensified effort to regain our position among the top scholastic houses on campus." As part of that program, a conducive atmosphere for study is provided through enforced study hours, weekly visits by professors, language tables, and bi-annual scholarship banquets. The Purdue Chapter is expected to meet this scholastic deficiency with renewed effort and sustained academic activity in the future.

Athletics Intramural athletics play an important part in the extracurricular activities of Purdue Acacians. Last year Acacia won both the Class

This year the basketball team finished second in the all campus playoffs and won the championship at the first Annual Acacia Basketball Tournament held at Illinois Wesleyan on March 19th.

See "Triad Times" story.

The Chapter is presently engaged in a three way tie for first place in Class A volleyball and with new pitching strength has a very good chance in the softball tournament this year.

Over the past year and a half Acacia has established itself as a leading contender in the intramural sports program. They are not content with anything but the best, and will continue to work toward even higher goals in athletics.

Purdue Acacians have worked hard in the past and, as a result, have strengthened their position on campus. Purdue students have learned that whenever there is anything of real importance going on, Acacia will be there . .. and in full strength. This strength is diversified but unified by common purpose. Th ey are not content, however, to live on past achievements, and will continue to apply themselYes to whatever tasks that confronts them. Purdue Acacians look toward an even more rewarding future.

TOP MAN IN THE ACACIA STAFF O RGANI ZATION is, of course, Roy C. Clark, Acacia's Executive Secretary since 194 7. Prior to this position, Roy was National Treasurer for four years. Known as "Mr. Acacia," Roy has earned this title of affection in his many years of service since he began his career in Acacia as a founding member of the reactivated Northwestern Chapter in 1921. That same year he graduated from Northwestern with the Bachelor of Science degree and accepted a position with the Rogers Park National Bank of Chicago-where he was to become a vice president and director. During his business career he also organized and operated the Rogers Park Currency Exchange from 1932 to 1963.

Besides his association with Acacia, Roy is also a member of Kiwanis, the Oriental Consistory of Chicago, Medinah Temple of the Shrine, and on the Board of Directors of the First Commercial Bank of Chicago. His success as Acacia's Executive Secretary is well known by Acacians from every Chapter and was recognized by other professional fraternity men when Roy was selected as President of the College Fraternity Secretaries Association. Roy's devotion to the ideals, progress, and individual members of Acacia fraternity IS evidenced by this unparalleled record of human service.

SPOTLIGH NATIONAl STAFI

ASSISTANT EXECUTIVE SECRETAR~ OF ACACIA is Harvey L. Logan. A Califor nian from the Acacia Chapter at Long Beacl State College (now, California State Colleg at Long Beach), Harvey came into the nationa organization in 1963 as a field secretary. Be fore his service with the national staff began Harvey had been Junior Dean, rush chairman and Venerable Dean of the Long Beach Stat( Chapter. He describes his experience at Long Beach as "on-the-spot training in public rela• tions and organization" and invaluable to hiS present position.

Questioned by TRIAD as to why he became an Acacian as an undergraduate, Harvey replied that, despite his intention not to join any fraternity, he was so impressed by what he terms the "authenticity" of Acacians at Long Beach that he pledged. "The men . . . were very frank, authentic, and truthful," remarked Harvey, "qualities which I feel make for an exceptional fraternity."

Field Sec. Calvin 0. Hultman

Field Sec. Willard L. Fuller

A NATIVE OF NEBRASKA, Field Secretary Calvin 0. Hultman began his college career at Dana College in Blair, Nebraska. After staying two years at Dana, participating in Varsity athletics, Cal moved to Iowa. Soon after transferring to Iowa State he joined Acacia fraternity. While attending the last two years of college Cal served his Chapter as Venerable Dean, Junior Dean, Scholarship Chairman, and building chairman. In addition, he served on the President's Council. Cal reports that his association with Acacia as an undergraduate "gave me so much of my formal education."

Commenting for the TRIAD on his national participation, Cal stated his firm belief in the fraternity system-and especially Acacia. It is his desire to "better our system so that we will be the best fraternity."

RETURNING TO THE NATIONAL STAFF, Field Secretary Willard L. Fuller brings with him impressive credentials. He is a 1/ Lt. in the U.S. Army Reserve, having served two years on active duty. Prior to that, Bill served as a Field Secretary in 1962-63. His college experience took place at the University of New Hampshire, where he received his B.A. in sociology ( 1962). His association with Acacia fraternity included serving as Venerable Dean and receiving the Order of Pythagoras.

Bill is also a Master Mason. Although he had a negative attitude toward fraternities upon entering college, the New Hampshire Acacians soon changed that "by their interest in me as an individual, by their own qualities and personalities, and by the brotherhood and interaction I could sense among them," Bill stated.

Bill's desire to repay Acacia for all it contributed to his personal growth motivated him to serve on the national level. He reported, nevertheless, "though working at the national level, I still find myself gaining more than I am able to contribute to those with whom I work."

The Winter Meeting of the National Counil was held March 3-6 at the National Headquarter's office in the North Shore Hotel, Evanston, Illinois. In attendance were all members of the National Council as well as Past National President William E. Krieger Fi~ance Committee Chairman; Roy C. Clark; Harvey L. Logan; and Barry J. Lyerly, Acting Ed~ tor of The TRIAD. Many of the usual routine reports and suggesti ns were covered.

The following positive actions should be of more than casual interest: In accordance with provisions of the Laws of Acacia, nominations were received and approved for Chapter Advisers: California Central State College Cornell Kansas Kansas State Miami Michigan Minnesota Nebraska New Hampshire Oklahoma

-Jerome H. Denham -Aris Prewitt -0. Earnest Bangs -Landon Nichols -A. E. Mulanax -Robert Graham -John R. Galbreath, III -Charles Larson -Robert Van Neste -Raymond E. Matheson -Blaine H. Smith, Jr. A current report of arrangements for the National Conclave, to be held at the Jung Hotel August 21-26, was submitted by National Treasurer L. W. Knapp, Jr. and Assistant Executive Secretary Harvey L. Logan, and all indications are that this should be one of the outstanding Conclaves in Acacia's history. Three of us have inspected the physical facilities of the Jung Hotel and are enthusiastic about the accommodations to be made available. Advance indictations are that this may well be the best-attended Conclave in ourhistory.

The Council interviewed representatives of the Acacia Corporation of Illinois Wesleyan University and approved its plans to finalize arrangements for a new Chapter house, to be erected with the financial assistance of Illinois Wesleyan University, as offered to other fraternities on thecampus.

The Council took positive action approving petitions-to be submitted to the Chapters for referendum-for Colonies at Shippensburg State, University of Alabama, University of Georgia, and San Jose State. Petitions have already been received from all four Colonies. {n accordance with a request from the active Chapter of the University of Missouri, as well as from the President of its housing corporation, the Charter of this Chapter was suspended and will be held in suspension pending arrangements to be developed in the future for the reactivation of the Chapter.

The National Council approved the creation of the post of Assistant Executive Secretary, and named Harvey L. Logan to fill it.

The Council also approved financing arrangements by local alumni corporations for the acquisition of housing at the University of Southern Mississippi and Central State College.

The question of continued participation of the Acacia Fraternity in a certain lawsuit filed in 1964 in the State of California (in which Acacia was a plaintiff) was reviewed in depth. Due largely to the lack of action by the attorneys for the plaintiffs in the prosecution of this suit, and the inability to secure additional plaintiffs from other fraternities and sororities, the Council voted to withdraw as a plaintiff in this suit. This action was influenced also by reason of the desire of the three active Chapters in the State of California, all of which have signed the local Certificates and have now been restored to recognition by the I. F. Councils and their respective University Administrations. All of the active Chapters have been properly briefed on the action taken and the reasons for it.

The Council also reviewed certain recommendations for the Award of Merit and the Order of Pythagoras, with the suggestion that nominations be held open for a reasonable length of time pending receipt of further nominations.

It was reported by Barry J. Lyerly, Acting Editor, that many favorable comments have been received from alumni and others as to the new format of The TRIAD. He submitted his future plans and recommdations and was commended for his efforts thus far.

Brother William James Lewis, L.S.U., was the recipient of the Order of Pythagoras Award on March 19, 1966. Congratulations, Jim. Brother George Ekblaw, long-time Illinois Chapter Adviser, was awarded Acacia's highest honor, the Award of Merit, this spring by Brother William E. Krieger, past National President. The Award was bestowed because of his outstanding service to Acacia and his many years of devotion to the Illinois Chapter. We salute you, George.

LETTER FROM VIETNAMDear Brother Clark, To give you a little rundown of what has happened since I departed Saigon: I was assigned to the Vietnam Regional Exchange System, and am serving in Phan Rang, a city about 65 miles south of Nha Trang, on the coast of the South China Sea. I am Base Exchange Officer for an Air Force Base here, although I am an Army officer myself.

When I first arrived here at the Air Base, there were only about 100 men here, but in 7 weeks the troop strength has increased to over 1100. This is just a small example of the tremendous build-up of American strength which is taking place all over the country. I am not sure of the distance between Phan Rang and Saigon, but figure it to be approximately 200 miles by road, 110 miles by air. Flying time in an Army Caribou is about one hour.

My primary job is to get merchandise down here to the exchange to sell to the troops. I terns such as cigarettes, beer, soap, razor blades, toothpaste. At home we take these things for granted, whereas they are considered luxuries in many places over here. dise is beginning to roll now, though, so have to be wi.u ..,u~.-......::7~

time consuming. We think nothing of working from 8:00 A.M. until 10:00 at night. In a new place such as this, there is always something to do, so no time for you to fret about being away from home.

As far as us getting our supplies for the store, we do not order merchandise as you would do in the states, we simply go up to Cam Ran Bay or Nha Trang in 2Y:z ton trucks and fill them up with anything we can get our hands on.

That is the only way we have been able to supply ourselves so far, but the Exchange system is working on the possibility of shipping to us by rail.

There is one main highway in. the entire country, and it is much like the country roads you find in the states.

Filled with chuck holes and extremely narrow. Any time you meet traffic, someone must stop to allow the other vehicle to go on by. The road is open only in certain places in the country, for the VC keep parts of it blown up constantly. For the time being it is open between Phan Rang and Nha Trang, although the last two convoys which have gone up to Nha Trang have been fired on. No casualties so far, thank goodness.

The rail line, like the highway, is only in certain places. Because nearness to the coast, there are small which the d the VC

The following letter was written by Lt. Jerry D. McKenney, an alum of the Arkansas Chapter, w ho is stationed in Vietnam . Brother McKenney's letter was written to Roy C. Clark, with the suggestion that TRIAD readers might enjoy some personal impressions of an Acacian stationed in that war-torn corner of the globe . ..

(nicknamed " Charlie" ) have kept these small bridges blown most of the time. I guess you might say we have been lucky in that respect, for we have been able to use all modes of travel since I've been here, at least between Phan Rang and Nha Trang.

The only way to travel between here and Saigon is by air. As you might guess, in my quest for merchandise, I have done a great deal of flying since I arrived in the country. For me this is especially significant, since I had been in, a plane only once prior to my getting orders for Vietnam. I feel rather much like an old pro now. Besides the Boeing 707 jet which I rode in coming to Vietnam from the states, I have now flown in a C-130 cargo transport, a Huey (heiicopter ), an Army Caribou, and a C-47 Air Force transport, which may also be used as a passenger plane.

Still scares me a little, but I'm beginning to get used to it.

The Air Force Base at which I am stationed will become the largest Air Force Base in all Asia when it is completed. An Army Engineer Battalion is constructing one 10,000 foot runway, and a civilian construction firm from the states is constructing another. The one being built by the Army is Aluminum matting, but the one being built by the civilian firm will be concrete.

Two 10,000 foot runways will give this base the capability to land any plane

now being utilized by the Armed servIces.

We are living in tents, naturally, but we have managed to obtain enough lumber to frame them in and keep out a portion of the dust. That is about the worst part of the entire place, the constant wind blowing all the dust. By mid-morning you are covered with about an inch of dust, and it just keeps piling on until night when we take a shower. The sun is very warm during the day, but the nights have been cool up to now, although I am told that once summer really arrives, the ¡ temperature will go down to about 90 degrees at night. Being a red-head, I never thought I would tan, but over here, you either tan or-; you don't, there's no way around it. Much of our work is done outside, so we are getting plenty of our good vitamins.

As for the VC, we have not had too much trouble with them. Once in a while a sniper fires into the camp, but this is rare. For the most part, they do not bother us. There are several VC units in the area, but they do battle with units of the 101st Airborne Division which is camped up the road from us about a mile.

For our leisure time, of which we have very little, we can go down to the beach and go in swimming. The water is very warm and calm, so that is about the only enjoyment we get out of the

place. The beaches here are beautiful.

As a matter of fact, the entire country is very beautiful. It is a shame that war must tear apart a country such as this.

The people, for the most part, are very friendly toward us and help us out in many ways. I have employed 10 Vietnamese in my exchange, and they are hard workers, although they are a small people and are not used to the fast pace which we Americans lead.

Their food is not what we normally eat, but I have gotten sick only once so far from eating it. The food in the mess hall isn't bad, but it is a repetition of the same things over and over.

I hope when I leave here I never have to look another lima bean or sweet potato in the face.

Guess that's about all for now. Write when you get a chance and give my greetings to all there. If you desire any more information, feel free to write me. I am too close to the subject now to realize just what the people in the states are interested in knowing about Vietnam. There is much to tell, so I'll be glad to answer any questions which anyone may have.

Fraternally, Jerry .

fRIAD ESSAY: rhe Ethic of Responsibility

The famed German sociologist Max Weber set up a dichotomy between the "ethic of absolute ends" and the "ethic of responsibility." An advocate of the first views any compromise on matters of principle as immoral and to be avoided at all costs. A proponent of the second recognizes that the realities of life may require compromise on issues involving principles, and that matters ought to be viewed with regard for consequences of actions taken. As an example, if one were to accept an absolute rule that people should never lie, no matter what the consequences, this individual might have a dilemma to face. Suppose his wife was seriously ill and not expected to live .. By following the ethic of absolute ends he would have to tell his wife this upsetting news if she asked about her condition, even though she might be happier not knowing her fate. In essence, this individual would be ignoring the consequences of his actions in order to uphold an absolute principle to never lie. This is perhaps an exaggerated example, but his type of reasoning can often apply to fraternity policy-making.

A good example of decision-making ala the ethic of responsibility was observed by this writer at the National Council meeting in March. On occasion matters involving moral questions had to be resolved by our National Officers. Genuine differences of opinion often existed as to the best course of action to follow. Yet, recognizing the fallibility of individual opinion and the need to take into account pragmatic considerations, issues of this sort were resolved by compromise and rational thought.

The same reasoning should be applied on the Chapter level. We need to recognize that, although in principle we may have certain rights (such as the right to ball a rushee) , the consequences of our actions ought to be considered (such as the hostility and conflict that might result if we balled someone whom 99 % of our Chapter approved of ) . I am not advocating that principles and ideals be ignored or "sold out." After all, Acacia is built upon a solid foundation of ideals. Nevertheless, whenever the ideals we uphold are viewed as absolutes, to be defended at all costs, the very existence of an institution based upon democratic rules of compromise is threatened.

None of us is omnipotent. None of us has a monopoly on the truth.

Compromise and reasoned judgment will produce much more progres than dogmatic, uncompromising attitudes. Perhaps the ethic of re pon ibility i not the panacea for all that may ail our fraternity, but it should not be ignored.

Province Governor Elected to Head Medical Association

Acacian President of Alumni Interfraternity Council at Arizona

Roy F. Miller, Province Governor and member of the Washington Chapter of Acacia, was elected to the office of President-Elect of the Medical-Dental-Hospital Bureaus of America, Inc., at the annual convention last October.

Prior to this election he had served on the Board of Trustees, Executive Committee, and as Treasurer of the Association.

The association is a national trade association whose members are actively engaged in working in the business side of medicine.

Most of the membership do management work for doctors.

In describing some recent work

Merle A. Denning, active Acacian at the University of Arizona, has been re-elected President of the Alumni Inter-Fraternity Council at the University.

This position will undoubtedly help Acacia stay at the top of the roster of organizations at Tucson. Brother Denning recently described for the TRIAD some of his duties: "We are entering into a great spread of committees to cover many phases both on and off campus. AIFC will be a big help this spring to IFC when the Western Regional IFC meeting is held on the U. of A. campus."

by this organization, Brother Miller noted that, "At the present time our great concern is the medicare program. To a large extent the problems of billing, dealing with the Fiscal Agent and interpretation of the regulations will be up to our membership to advise the people whom they serve."

Acacian Appointed Dean of Cincinnati Law School Claude R Sowle, a member of the Northwestern Chapter of Acacia, was recently appointed Dean of the College of Law at the University of Cincinnati.

Dean Sowle delivered the Honors Day Convocation of the College of Law last May 7th. In this address, Dean Sowle made a statistical projection of the increase in law students in the United States during the next decade. He concluded that the number seeking admission to law school would double or possibly triple during that period.

The Dean posed the problem, of providing legal education of high quality, created by this great increase in law student population. He defined the wide range of standards existing at "A", "B", and "C" law schools. He noted that quality instruction for the first law degree requires in excess of $2,000 per student per annum, exdusive of cost of law school facilities.

Emphasizing the importance of quality legal education in preparing the law student to meet the ever increasing professional responsibility of the lawyer, Dean Sowle stated that it would be necessary to bring the present day "B" schools up to "A" standards so that a substantial proportion of the increasing body of law students can be trained at the highest level.

Dean Sowle's suggested immediate solution is support by private foundations and, where necessary, by state support.

Their funds would be used to improve faculty salaries. In time, support by Alumni and friends of each law school would be substituted for the Foundation ¡support.

By Washington Alumni The Acacia Corporation's annual winter reception and cocktail party was held Saturday night, December 4, 1965 in the Scandinavian Room of the International Inn in Washington, D.C. Some seventy Acacians and their ladies were present.

By scheduling this event coincident with the meeting of the National Interfraternity Conference it was possible to have, as guests of Washington, Acacians: Acacia President George Patterson, Judge Advocate J. B. Beaird, Executive Secretary Roy Clark and his assistant Harvey Logan.** In the cheery atmosphere of the evening there was much pleasant conversation, reminiscences of the past and thoughts of the future. While it is unlikely the George Washington Chapter of Acacia will be re-established, the "hard core" Washington alumni annually schedule a Founders' Day banquet and a winter cocktail party. Those who can, meet for noon lunch on the last Tuesday of each month at the Sphinx Club, 1315 K Street, N.W. Visiting Acacians are always welcome. **Past TRIAD Editor Philip W. Cramer, and former Field Secretary Dudley Johnson.

Acacia Mourns Passing of K. E. Beeson Acacia Fraternity lost an outstanding alumnus with the passing of Keller E. Beeson last July 20, 1965. A Purdue Acacian since 1919, a recipient of the Acacia Award of Merit, a long-time Extension Agronomist in Indiana and leader in crop improvement in his own state and around the world, Keller served his Fraternity unstintingly.

Brother Beeson, 71 at his death, had served Acacia Fraternity and especially his home Chapter at Purdue University for over four decades. He served as Secretary of the Purdue Acacia Building Association from 1925 and as Secretary and Treasurer from 1948 until his death. He was instrumental in the establishment of the Purdue Acacia Scholarship

Professionally, few men contributed more to Indiana agriculture than did Keller Beeson.

He wrote and spoke in a language that laymen could understand. His influence extended beyond state boundaries, however. He was instrumental in the development of the International Crop Improvement Association and in the founding of the American Soybean Association. He served as president of both organizations.

Brother Beeson will best be remembered by his many colleagues and friends for his complete dedication to his profession and to his Fraternity.

For the past three years the Oklahoma Chapter of the Acacia Fraternity has received the blood drive trophy for donating the largest amount of blood by percentage of members and pledges.

This last year was the most successful of all, the amount of blood totaled over one thousand pints, and all students were allowed one day free from classes!

Illinois Acacians Wonder: To Join or Not To Join?

Bracker, Vice-President and Pledge Trainer Roger Cogswell, and Glenn Cutler discuss the plan which guarantees qualified students acceptance into Officer Candidate School as much as one year in advance of graduation. The program includes eight weeks of basic training, followed by eight months of officer training at Fort Benning, Georgia. All undergraduates and recent university graduates are eligible for the program.

The men of Acacia at the University of Illinois got the word in January of the new U. S. Army College Option Plan for officer training. (Left to right) 2nd Lt. David B. Allen, leader of the U. S. Army Officer Selection Team, Master Sergeant Herb

World's Bowling Reco.rd Set by Venerable Dean

Bill Elmore and R oland Lambert Manager of Bowl-A-Way Lane/

Three hundred and eleven miles and I 08.2 tons of weight add up to a new world's bowling endurance record as Bill Elmore amassed those totals enroute to bowling I082 games in 76 hours.

Elmore's feat eclipses the old mark of I073 games in 121 hours and 45 minutes which was set several years ago and it brings a world record holder to the campus of the University of Southern Mississippi.

Endurance records are the "in" things now, and that's where Elmore, Venerable Dean of Luther A. Smith Chapter, got his idea to shoot for the bowling mark. When the challenge was issued by a local disc jockey, Elmore and his brothers decided to accept.

With the cooperation of Bowl-A-Way Lanes, a trio of Acacians began bowling at 3:15 p.m. on March 15. The initial effort saw George Martin and Mike Davis bowling along with Elmore as the trio was after the state record for a three-man team . After setting a new state record of 984 games it was decided that since all were missing classes only one would '2.0

continue on for the world record.

Elmore bowled continually for more than 60 hours before he finally took a three-hour nap.

Still being more than 200 games short of the mark he continued to bowl. Encouraged by his brothers, who gave him massages and food, and kept him awake, Elmore closed in on the mark. He hit his 1073rd game with, as Elmore says, "a lot to spare."

But then came the hard part.

After equalling the mark, Elmore recalled, much of the desire was gone and he had to push himself to extend it. Just to prove that his bowling was not haphazard, he kept score for the final four games and recorded 155, 146, 198, and 169-for a 168 average.

Of his feat, Elmore says most of the credit goes to his brothers and to Bowl-A-Way Lanes, which provided the free bowling, shoes, and a specially drilled I0-pound ball. "Without their help, I would have never made it," he concedes.

For his efforts, Elmore has been awarded two trophies, one for the state record and one for the world mark.

donations, with approximately 1400 pints of blood donated.

Gary Romberg, a run1or in mathematics, has been invited to join the Wyoming Chapter of Phi Beta Kappa, national scholastic honorary. He was initiated April 4. Brother Romberg, of Casper, Wyoming, has consistently appeared on the Dean's honor roll. Last semester, his name was on the President's honor roll-the result of a 4.00 semester average.

Gary served as treasurer last year, resulting in modernization and streamlining of the chapter's financial structure.

Cornell Captures Cross Country Trophy

Colorado Active Politically

The cross country team has become the pride of Cornell Acacia this year. It raced to the Inter-Fraternity Council Championship competing against 118 runners representing the 53 fraternities.

Laddie Amatulli paced the team with a tenth place, followed closely by Rex Inglis, twelfth.

Bill Ahearn then clinched the victory by placing 33rd. Also running, but not included in the scoring, were Bruce Fox, 43rd, and Charles Rickard, 55th.

With all the starters returning next year, and some good potential in the pledges, Cornell Acacia looks forward to repeating its victory next year.

Once again, Colorado Acacia has captured key positions in the C.U. political system. Fred Seydel was recently elected president of the Honors Union Council. Fred will not only be the lead¡e r of C.U.'s honor students, but will also gain a seat on the student Senate.

Just returned from a semester in Europe, Greg Thomas has been chosen one of the five senators-at-large on the student Senate. Greg defeated four opponents for the position and should play an important part in the activities and decisions of the Senate. Finally, Ralph Wallace made political news by winning the election for Junior Class President.

Ralph was active in the Freshman honorary, Freshman Class Council, and Sophomore Class Council. He assumes the office

with 76% of its members (actives and pledges) donating; Phi Kappa Tau was second with 56%; and Pi Kappa Alpha third with 55%. Mississippi State University holds the intercollegiate record for blood

Arizona Acacia Wins Greek Week Olympics Tearned with the members of Lambda Delta Fraternity and the girls of Delta Delta Delta Sorority, the Brothers of the Arizona Chapter took first place honors in the 1966 Greek Week Olympics. By placing in all but two events, the ACACIA team dominated the Olympics.

Highlights of the victory were firsts in the Tricycle Race and the Egg Rolling Contest, where Brother Jim Clark's nose played a leading role. Another notable first was the crowning of the ACACIA candidate, Debbie Ide , as Queen of Greek Week at the Greek Week Ball.

During the first round of play Indiana beat Wesleyan 58-34, and Purdue whipped Iowa State 57-25. In the second round of eliminations, the Brothers fron Illinois beat Indiana 56-44.

The real excitement came in the evening when the championship play-off was held-with Illinois facing Purdue for the title. A goal-tending call within the last three seconds of the game gave Purdue a 46-44 victory over Illinois.

Following this exciting game the Illinois Wesleyan Acacians hosted a dance for all participant.

-which included the awarding of the championship trophy to Purdue and the 'naming of the Tournament's Most Valuable Player, Vern Pfaff of Indiana (who scored 47 points in two games).

Acacians Elected to Student Government An active and an alumnus of Acacia's Texas Chapter-Bob Collie and David Chappell, respectively, were elected to offices in the University of Texas student government on March Ist. Collie won the race for Arts and Sciences Assemblyman and Chappell became Chief Justice of the Student Court by a unanimous vote. In the past Chappell served as pledge trainer for the Chapter and Collie is currently serving as Chapter treasurer.

We take this opportunity to salute those Acacians who have been members for 50 years or longer. The photograph on page 26 shows National President George F. Patterson, Jr. presenting a 50 Year Certificate to his father, George F. Patterson (Iowa ' 15 ). The senior Patterson served as Venerable Dean of the Iowa Chapter in 1915-16 and 30 years later his son served as Venerable Dean of the Cincinnati Chapter. By the way, President Patterson notes that his father is still quite active, having practiced medicine for over 45 years.

Editor's Note: The following article was written by Chuck Stewart, Venerable Dean at Kansas. Chuck was serving as Senior Dean at the time the article was written. He is still actively engaged in rush activities, the most recent being editor of .the 1966 K.U. Rush Handbook. In addition, Brother Stewart is now serving as Secretary of the K.U. Interfraternity Council. The TRIAD presents his summer rush report with the idea that his difficulties, achievements, and methods could be very helpful for other Chapters as they begin making plans for summer rush, 1966.

Summer Rush, 1965

-by Chuck Stewart ..

Summer, 1965, rush was one of the most important periods in the recent history ol Acacia's Kansas Chapter. An excessive number of transfers, graduates, and drop-out. forced the chapter into suddenly needing a 25man pledge class for fall semester, 1965. The rush problems and solutions that the Kansa Chapter found might well help other Acacia chapters in future summer rush.

In late February, 1965, a spring-summer rush program was begun. It started with a high school senior rush party early in March.

Prospects came from two sources: personal recommendations from chapter members and University lists of high school seniors coming to KU. One list of the latter source included

over 400 names of Kansas seniors who had been recommended by their high schools for competition for KU's top-honor scholarships. Scholarship lists, in the case of KU, are made on the basis of class ranking, rather than financial need. This list proved valuable in contacting seniors who were good students. In planning our first party we found that roughly 107o ofl invited seniors accept campus rush invitations.

On 350 letters we received 38 affirmative re~ sponses. In addition, we received even more letters from boys who could not attend. The letters from both groups, then formed a valu~ able mailing list for future mailings and rush visits.

1

The 38-guest rush weekend was probably the rnost important factor in "kicking off" our rush. It accomplished four major points: ( 1) oosted house morale by having a real, full house for the weekend, ( 2) gave us a high campus "image" with each rushee, ( 3) helped us single out the individuals we wanted to rush hardest, and ( 4) allowed chapter members to make friendships with various rushees which helped us immeasurably later.

With such a large group it was impossible for one person to be able to match each name with the corresponding face. To finally sift out the rushees we were particularly interested in, we kept a sign-out sheet in our entrance hall.

The rush chairman acted as host as rushees left the house at the end of the weekend. He per¡sonally made sure that he had the name and address of each person that he wanted to con1tinue to rush.

The second rush party was held in April for the annual K.U. Relays. Our invitations were r made this time on a much more limited basis.

Letters were sent to selected seniors from the first party and those who couldn't attend the first party, but who expressed interest in hearing more from us. This amounted to about 85 letters; we received about 25 affirmative replies from this mailing.

To fill the gap between our last campus rush party and the beginning of summer rush, we wrote personal letters to our prospects and also visited some personally on several weekends.

Two mailings ended our second semester rush. The first was directed to alumni explaining the rush program, plans, and accomplishments. It asked for recommendations; replies were limited. Th e alumni mailing proved mainly effective for chapter-alumni relations.

The second mailing was a pre-summer rush mailing to over 600 prospective KU students.

This letter was of a very general type designed to simply repeat the name "Acacia" several times so that if and when we called to visit them in the summer, or invited them to a rush party, they would not be completely oblivious to our name.

Summer rush was planned on an all-member basis before the semester ended. Actives were given packets with information sheets about rush techniques, rushee report forms, and reply envelopes to the rush chairman. A name assignment system was set up under which each active would receive five names to follow up each two weeks. Their reports, then, would be kept by the rush chairman in an attempt at a type of master control. While complete in its scope, the program of all-member support fell short of its potential. Summer jobs, irregular hours, vacations, etc., caused continuous interruptions in its effectiveness.

In retrospect, the main problem in making summer assignments lay in the fact that few actives knew how to rush. The question of how to set up a rush call, make it, and follow up on it, was the real source of our inertia. Although the rush chairman held a rush school at the end of the semester and supplied members with the rush packets, there was still not enough instruction given. A summer rush school started a month before the end of the semester with weekly meetings might have been an improvement.

The bulk of summer rush, then, fell basically in the hands of the rush chairman.

Letters went out the first week in June for a mid-June rush party to be held in Kansas City.

L etters were follow ed up in as many cases as possible by personal visits and phone calls. The party was successful; 20 rushees attended.

Since we were low on manpower we combined forces with the Missouri Chapter for our

As we made rush vzszts we augmented au¡ prospect list by casually asking our best pledg< prospects if they had friends coming to KD e who were interested in fraternities. If so, W( made a careful mental note of these friends names and then began to contact them. Thi: cross-reference proved extremely important For example, one rushee was president of hi: high school National Honor Society chapter His recommendations resulted in our rushine . 'four of his friends-all were in the top of their class. This group began talking about Acacia Nl among themselves. When August came, W( pledged each of them! Although that grouJ1 was our biggest single pledge group, the principle worked in other cases.

Our housemother-living for the summer in our rush area, Kansas City-went with me to fu visit several rushees at times when a chapter 1 member or our alumni president couldn't go. ~ Her presence and interest in "her boys" sold e the Fraternity faster than any visits we had ~ 1 made before ! ~ In August we made our wrap-up calls atru tempting to pledge as many as possible. To~ m ward the latter part of the month pledging 'II slackened and we began to concentrate on mak-¡ n ing contacts prior to rush week. In this period 'I we made careful use of our new pledges, taking n one or two of them to rush with us. Don't underestimate a new pledge's ability to rush. We Q found that our new pledges often were the chapter's persuasive rushers for two reasons P 0 ( 1) they had to be sold on Acacia to join themO selves and ( 2) they were tangible proof for the rushee of the quality of pledge class member- p ship.

I found that good organization demands p

Kansas City party. This proved to be an advantage for both chapters since a large group of people is always an impressive rush aid.

The most important part of summer rush were personal visits. A maximum number of these had to be made during June and July since K U allows pledging during August.

Acacia's Kansas alumni president and the rush chairman began making calls the first week in June. The format used allowed making three or four calls in one evening. Of course, appointments were made in advance and were always made in the same general geographic area, if possible. With the first call at 6:45 p.m. and the last at 9:15 p.m. we were able to easily spend 30 minutes with each rushee. This proved to be an adequate time for a first visit. The presence of the alumni president gave the rushee not only an undergraduate's viewpoint, but also that of an alum.

In as many cases as possible we attempted to encourage parents to sit in on our visits. Some parents felt like they would not be wanted, but each, undoubtedly was as interested as their son. We found, in fact, that getting to know the parents allowed us to finally pledge the boy more surely than without the parents. A good way to build up parental contact is by telephone. I found that in setting up an appointment with a boy several calls might be necessary before finally finding him at home.

Whenever possible talk with the parent. Leads can be something like, "Mrs. Smith, we're glad your son could be at our party last weekend, etc." While some parents will not be receptive, you will find that the parents of your best prospects will be anxious for a chance to talk to you alone.

¡ommunication. To this end we maintaine as uch contact as possible through phone and etters. Out-of-town prospects, and alumni elp, required quite a lot of correspondence. It ecame standard procedure when writing a leter to make a carbon for the Venerable Dean, umni President, and my rush file, and anyne else involved in correspondence. This way e key persons involved in our work were well'nformed on each part of our program.

Out-of-town and state rushees pose a real roblem for a chapter. To best handle contact ith these persons I assigned one active to do othing but write personal letters to these perons. The letters, all the same form, welcomed the new student to Kansas, described Acacia nd the fraternity system, and asked if there ight be anything with which we could help the rushee. Since the letters were personal they overcame the lack of interest of a general form letter.

During August rush we pledged 12 freshmen.

We felt it necessary to pledge a good-size group before rush week so that we could enter formal rush with a tangible pledge class. Many houses made a mistake of rushing men during rush week with their actives only. Our success in rush week this year in pledging 13 more men was due largely to our use of new pledges in rush.

Our 12 summer pledges were pledged on three bases: ( 1) top scholarship only, ( 2) good ¡personality, and (3) compatibility with the , other summer pledges. This formula gave us one of the sharpest, closest-knit groups in our pledge class histories.

Shortly before rush week began these pledges were schooled in rush. They were inSt!ucted that their job during rush week was to

decide which rushees they wanted as pledge brothers. While their choices were subject to the active chapter and actives' invitations, our summer pledge class worked as a team to sell their Fraternity. As a result, rushees could tangibly see the type of men who would be in their pledge class. This was the key to our rush week pledging.

An important attitude which we adopted on our August pledging was that of allowing the rushee to make his decision without unfair pressure from us. Our approach became one of, "John, we'd like to have you in our pledge class." Very simply we invited them to join and then, without pressure, let them come to their own decision. This benefitted us in two ways: ( 1) It gave us 12 of the most personally convinced rushees ever, and (2) it effected unusual pledge class unity after the semester began.

We rushed against many KU fraternities ' proud t h at our " wms . " -out. t h IS summer. w ere number our "losses." In some cases we found that our rush was much less pressured than that of other houses. When we were up against houses which tried to pressure the rushee, we merely let him know that his decision to pledge Acacia would be his own and not merely a decision to keep us from harrassing him until he finally pledged.

In every situation we made a definite point to overcome any momentary anger frequently arising when a prospect pledges elsewhere.

Our philosophy dictated that we congratulate him on his choice and then attempt to compliment the house he chose. This approach gained us a good number of friends around the campus, proving effective in our public relations.

February 23, 1 Mr. Barry J . Lyerly Editor The TRIAD of Acacia Fraternity 7629 Draper La Jolla, California 92037 Dear Barry: Welcome to the ranks of fraternit editors and congratulations on an e1 cellent first issue.

Phil Cramer always did an cellent job with the magazine an I'm glad to see that you have tinued his dynamic style of layout.

I like the idea of an essay on fn ternities in each issue and I planne to begin running essays in The Tek in September. Unfortunately, you have scooped us and now w will be copying the TluAD. Where are you getting your lin drawings? They are certainly gOO' and add to the magazine.

I'm looking forward, Barry, meeting you at the Editors '"'··-··--• tion this summer. again and best wishes.

Sincerely, Dale R. Terry Publications Director Tau Kappa Epsilon Fraternit March 10,

Mr. Barry J. Lyerly, Editor 7629 Draper La Jolla, California 92037 Dear Barry: First of all, let me congratulate you on your appointment as TRIAD Editor. I had no idea when we visited at Colorado a few years ago that you would be this involved in Acacia, and I wish you the best of luck.

The new outlook or "direction", as you said, should try to reach the chapter level and this again brings you to the problem of all past Editors-getting chapters to send in the news. How well I remember trying to get chapters to send very newsworthy, specific items to the Editor.

It really is a problem and, frankly, I don't know how you can solve it unless there is some sort of special contact made with a specific person in each chapter.

Down here in the Southeast there are relatively few Acacians living but in the 2 !h years I've been in Atlanta I have run into several people passing through here, as well as a few residents. One item I wish we would publicize periodically is that several Navy ROTC officers are sent to the supply school in Athens, Ga., annually. They are only a few blocks from the Acacia Colony and often do not realize this until they have gone.

These men are usually recent officers and they could give the group a lot of help. In fact, it was three of these men who were instrumental in finding the first members of the present colony at the University of Georgia.

In the past few weeks I have received calls (some quite late at night) from alumni I know who are in the service and passing through Atlanta.

One of my own classmates, 1st Lt. Don Clagett, Penn State '61, came through here a few weeks ago on his way from "Jump School" at Fort Ben¡ ning, Ga., probably to Viet Nam. He is a Ph.D. in Chemistry from Yale.

There are many people moving to Atlanta from all over the country and I'm sure there are several Acacians among them. Working and living on the Georgia Tech campus, I'm quite easily contacted and with very little difficulty I can quite easily put up any transient Acacians passing through Atlanta-either in a dormitory or in one of the Fraternity houses.

Let me know if there is anything I can do for you by way of collecting or sending you any material that will be useful. I hope that we will have a chapter here in Georgia this Spring and really start on expansion into the Southeast.

The best to you, Barry.

1305 Slater Apt. 204 Toledo Ohio 43612 February 2'6, 1966 Barry J. Lyerly, Acting Editor TRIAD Acacia Fraternity Headquarters P. 0. Box 1477 Evanston, Illinois 60201 Dear Brother Lyerly: I must admit that I felt a tinge of remorse when I read that "Political, ideological, and legal issues will not be emphasized . . . and (we should) not worry so much about matters which are best left to our lawyers."

Perhaps so much of the pains presently experienced by our society stem from a "let the other fellow take care of it" attitude. It seems a shame for the TRIAD to again become one of those common fraternity publications.

Fraternally, (Dr.) John N. Drowatzky Kansas 1957

March 2, 1966 Dear Brother Lyerly: I was pleased to read your memo in the TRIAD stating that "a new direction has been established for our publication." I agree thoroughly with the new policy you propose and wish for you much success in your effort to get the magazine back on a proper course.

Early in 1962 when it became apparent to me that the publication had been "taken over'' for selfish partisan political purposes, I wrote letters of protest to the Editor, Olson, to William Kniger, then National President, and to Roy Clark, our Secretary. Neither the Editor nor the President ever answered my letter, and it took the Secretary a full three months to answer and attempt to justify the policy the magazine was then following. After that, I decided the "take over" had been complete and lost all interest in the Fraternity.

Now, after four long years, it appP.ars that our leadership has decided that a change in course is desirable.

Although it is very belated, I am delighted that the change is finally being made. I feel that our Fraternity has suffered considerable damage because of a leadership which either sponsored or permitted the large scale use of the magazine for obvious partisan political propaganda.

Again, may you be successful in getting the TRIAD back on a proper course.

Sincerely, Blythe R. Jones Illinois '26

March 8, 1966 Mr. Blythe R. Jones 863 Southfield Road Birmingham, Michigan 48009 Dear Brother Jones: Barry Lyerly has kindly shared with me the contents of your letter of March 2nd. I am happy to know that you approve the different look of The TRIAD. I might say, in passing, that we ...

Had numerous communications in the Pe7Jod which you refer to, many of whzch were favorable and some like yours, unfavorable. However, w; feel that now we have an Editor who shares with all of us the belief that t~e editorial comment should be spotlzghted on the Fraternity itself and s~ould not ~ve~ be construed as a political organzzat1on, either right or left.

Sincerely and fraternally, Roy C. Clark Executive Secretary March 9, 1966 Dear Brother Lyerly: I received your memo yesterday and I am very impressed with your enthusiasm concerning the TRIAD. Our chapter has been one of the worst when it came to mailing information to the TRIAD. I will see that this is corrected in the future.

Fraternally, Luther A. Smith Chapter Bill Elmore Venerable Dean, March 23, 1966 Barry J. Lyerly Acacia Fraternity Headquarters P.O. Box 1477 Evanston, Illinois Dear Barry: This letter is written both in response to your form and at the prompting of the members of the Oklahoma Chapter of Acacia. In the previous two years we have sent several articles and photographs to the TRIAD. We have received no response and our articles have never been published. This has become very irritating to the entire chapter. The Oklahoma Chapter is a growing and very active chapter and wonders if the TRIAD staff can say the same?

Since we support the TRIAD we would like for the TRIAD to finally begin to support us!

Enclosed is your form and an article coupled with a photograph concerning one of the activities of the Oklahoma Chapter, we would like very much to have it published in the next issue.

Fraternally, TRIAD Correspondent Vilis F ogels Oklahoma Chapter Answer: TRIAD intends to support every Chapter in the future. Note "Triad Times" Section.
