To EPery Member of Pi f(appa Pht. Frafernif.ZJ GREETINGS:

The Supreme Chapter Meeting to be held in Birmingham, Ala .. December 28, 29 , 30, should be the main topic of discussion between Pi Kappa Phis this Spring, Summer and Fall.

Every Pi Kapp, active and alumni, should not pass up the opportunity to mention the Supreme Chapter Meeting to every brother he sees from now on, as this will be the largest and best meeting we have ever known.

We are growing in strength, both nationally and locally, and it is through th es2 meetings that we learn to know our distant brothers. Each of us have not the opportunity to visit each chapter and know our brothers personally, so we must take advantage of this great gathering, and know our brothers as we should know them. Only through association and co-operation can we get the most out of our fraternity, and at the same time, put the most into our fraternity.

~!

We are striving to make our fraternity the Brightest Star in college life, but this can only be done by every man putting his shoulder to the wheel and pushing. He that plants hard work in his early years, will reap a harvest in the latter part of his life, but h e that is a slacker will drift and die without fortune or friends.

An organization is already working to make your trip here a most pleasant and worth while one. You should show your appreciation of their labor by coming, or helping send someone to come, and if you will do your part, the rest will be easy, and the meeting will be the greatest ever held.

Let's buckle down now, and make this the greatest homecom in g and beneficial meeting ever held.

Yours for the up -building of Pi Kappa Phi,

V.

H. HU EY,

General Chairman.

For the last several years, the fraternity movement in South Carolina was gaining strength as one after the other denominational colleges, which followed the state ban on fraternities, withdrew the regulations and permitted the return of social fraternities.

The Presbyterian College of South Carolina and Wofford College are notable among these. The anti-fraternity regulations, formulated by trustees, are still in effect at Furman University, the Baptist institution of the state. Here Pi Kappa Phi's Delta chapter still sleeps beneath the lid of the anti-fraternity ban.

With the repeal of the state law efforts were immediately started by a number of Pi Kappa Phi's residing in and near Columbia, to re-establish our Sigma chapter at the University of South Carolina. These brothers are shaping up their plans and announce that ere long a petition will be filed.

College Youth Today Better Student In spite of jazz orchestras and collegiate sport roadsters, American college students of today are making as good grades, if not better, than did their predecessors of 10 years ago when bell-bottomed trousers and short skirts were unknown on the campus.

R. M. West, registrar of the University of Minnesota and president of the American Association of collegiate registrars which recently met in annual convention at Atlanta points to the record of modern day youth as proof of this assertion.

"One cannot be pessimistic about college students of today when he examines the records," Mr. West said.

"College students of today dress more freely, act more freely and think more freely than did college men and women of ten years ago, but it certainly has not affected their grades.

"The so-called jazz period, with its automobiles and night life, has not shown up in

was submitted to the Dean of Students for permission to establish the fraternity which was to be known as Gamma Sigma.

The thirteen origin a I founders were Joseph Benkert, James J. Dunn, Edwin C. Galsterer, Ralph W. Goodall, D. Clinton Green, Howard B. Green, Willis Handy, Charles L. Lewis, 0. Harry Olson, Homer B. Porritt, Stanley H. Richardson, E. B. Schermerhorn, and C. Floyd White. An organization was perfected with the following men acting as the first officers of Gamma Sigma : Ralph Goodall, president; James J. Dunn, vice-president; 0. Harry Olson, secretary; Willis Handy, treasurer; and Joseph Benkert, chaplain. These men possessed unusual ability and Gamma Sigma was in for a glorious future.

In the spring of 1926, after a great deal of work in which Charles J.

In December of that year, notification was received of the acceptance of this petition. Gamma Sigma had now passed through the critical period and was about to enter into the field as a chapter of one of the strongest national fraternities.

The following section vested the government of the University in a board of regents, to consist of twelve memhers and a chancellor, who was to be the exofficio president of the board. Provision was made for the appointment of the regents by the governor, by and with the consent of the state senate.

The board of regents was given the power and duty to enact laws for the government of the University, to appoint the prescribed number of professors and the requisite numher of tutors and to determine the amount of their salaries. Power was also given to the board to regulate the courses of instruction, and a further duty required that each year the board should make an exhibit of the affairs of the University to the board of five persons appointed by the superintendent of public instruction. Provision was also made so that the regents might proceed with the erection of necessary buildings for the University as soon as the state should provide the funds.

In 1871 Dr. Angell was elected president.

Dr. Angell was one of the best and most widely renowned college presidents the world has ever known. His election spelled a new era for the University. Under his regime of thirty-eight years the faculty grew from thirty-five to three hundred and seventy-five, and the student body from one thousand one hundred and ten to five thousand two hundred and twenty-three. The Law and Medical courses grew from two lecture courses of six months each to three- and four-year courses of nine months each, after a twoyear preparatory course.

Following the death of the late President Burton, the University came under the leadership of Clarence Cook Little, of the University of Maine. Under this youthful president, who is thirty-seven year·s of age, the University can be expected to expand beyond the wildest dreams of its founders. President Little has to assist him a faculty composed of sixteen deans, three assistant deans, sixteen professors-emeritus, 182 professors, 54 associate professors, 121 assistant professors, 270 instructors, 120 student teaching assistants, and 300 various other summer instructors, library, museum, laboratory, and hospital assistants.

Since 1837 the University of Michigan has grown to such an extent that its enrollment now exceeds 12,000 students, placing it in fourth rank among the educational institutions of the country in that respect, and it now consists of buildings valued at $16,144,449. The total valuation of the University as expressed in buildings, lands, land improvements, and equipment, totals $25,535,056.

HE University of Mississippi, better known as "Ole Miss," is located among the hills of northeast Mississippi. The town of Oxford is a typical inland town with no traits of being the seat of a state university. Yet, in spite of the few pleasures presented in Oxford, there are enough activities to take up most of the students' time out of class. The main line of the Illinois Central railroad separates the campus from the corporation line of the town.

Oxford is the seat of the federal court for the district, and, also, the county seat.

"Ole Miss" came into being, at this town, in November of 1848. Many of the first buildings erected on the campus stood the fighting that took place around Oxford during the Civil War, and they still stand. The old chapel, soon to become a Y. M. C. A. build-

Much of the Physi · equipment of that day was destroyed, but t.b' building remains with the Lyceum, an adrrll~ istration building, and one of the residence~ the "dead house," to bear witness of the of "Ole Miss." The "dead house" was bll1 before the war to serve as a magnetic obseri atory, but during the war was used as · morgue, hence the name. The only time t~:~ the school has closed its doors was dU1'1 : 10 this period of the war, when only four 5 dents appeared for matriculation.

Since that day , "Ole Miss" has experienc~ pi' a great growth. The number of students . reached the eleven hundred mark. Of til~ about two hundred and fifty are co-~ti Fifty-three instructors make up the facu ·l' Seven degrees are offered, Bachelor of AI ·

were allowed to come back, by a bill that passed the legislature in March, 1926. The bill provides that no fraternity houses shall be had for a period of five years. Faculty rulings deal further with fraternities through the faculty committee on fraternities. Judging from all prospects, fraternities are back in Mississippi to stay.

In the Inter-Fraternity Council, which is affiliated with the national organization of that name, there are seventeen fraternities.

Nine of these are national fraternities which have received their charters since the passing of the bill for fraternities. The others are locals petitioning nationals. This council is composed of two members from each fraternity and meets twice each month.

Pi Kappa Phi is the ninth national fraternity to enter "Ole Miss." It is, also, the third to grant a charter which did not have a chapter here before fraternities went out of the state. Pi Alpha was founded on March 7, 1926, by nine men who came together with Brother Simms, to petition. Around this group were gathered others until the number has reached twenty-four. Most of the men were so bound together by bonds of friend-

ship that the fraternity was unified from the start, and very successful.

Pi Alpha, however, had a grave problem to face. There were few men in the University who had been experienced in fraternities.

The "old heads" had to be looked to at all times, lest those inexperienced in fraternities should not carry out th~ir duties properly.

Then, in all the excitem-ent over the passing of the Fraternity Bill, with every group rushing madly about, there was difficulty lest a bad step be made. Yet, Pi Alpha came through it all with a fine record. Another hardship that the fraternity has had to face is that of having no house. The real fraternal spirit can hardly be generated without the associations that come from the men living in a house together. But Pi Alpha has managed to keep its members closely united by frequent meetings, socials, and continually sticking together when "loafing." As Alpha Lambda, Pi Alpha has become the first chapter of Pi Kappa Phi in the State of Mississippi. The eyes of the state will be on this chapter to see what Pi Kappa Phi will mean to Mississippi. The eyes of the whole fraternity are on Alpha Lambda for the same reason. This means that every member will have to wo1·lc for his fraternity, and every member has decided to do this in every way possible. The record of Pi Alpha has been honorable and spotless; the record of Alpha Lambda promises to be even better. ~~

LREADY plans are being made for the Fourteenth Supreme Chapter Meeting of the :Irraternity, to be held in Birmingham, December 28, 29 and 30.

Energetic brothers hav.e tackled the problem of entertaining the hundreds of Pi Kapps who are expected to attend.

Those in charge of the various phases of the meeting include brothers who have taken prominent parts in the affairs of the Fraternity.

The following sketches will introduce these brothers:

V. HAIN HUEY V. Rain Huey is the general chairman of the committee on arrangements for the Fourteenth Supreme Chapter Meeting. Brother

Huey is Birmingham's "best bet" for general chairman. In fact, no better Pi Kapp could have been secured for the place.

His unusual ability as a leader is proven by the way the members of the BirminghaJll Alumni Chapter, Omicron and Alpha Et~· look to him for leadership. Conscientious ~n endeavor, loyal in activity, and steadfast 10 devotion, Brother Huey is one of the best known Pi Kapps in the state. ~ Brother Huey did his undergraduate wor at Omicron and, after some time in Chic~g~ came to the "Magic City." He has organiZed and developed in Birmingham the secoP largest alumni chapter in the fraternity.

He is a very successful member of a lal'f real estate firm known as the Smith, Schul t and Hodo Realty Company. . ·ttet As a member of the general commJ r for the Seventh District Conclave, Brotne Huey worked untiringly and unceasing!;; and to him goes much of the credit for 1 • success. ~ With Brother Huey at the helm for t 0 • Jl Fourteenth Supreme Chapter, there JS Jt doubt as to the success of the meeting. pi will truly be the greatest convention 1 Kappa Phi has even known.

CECIL A. CARLISLE Cecil A. Carlisle, Eta, was chairman of the committee that petitioned the Supreme Council for the charter of the Atlanta Alumni Chapter on March 24, 1917. We find that he was the first secretary of the Atlanta alumni.

He was active in the affairs of the fraternity in that great Pi Kapp city and brought much of that enthusiasm to Birmingham with him not so long ago. Brother Carlisle has been of invaluable assistance in the work of building up the Birmingham Alumni Chapter. He is quiet and unassuming but interested, loyal and faithful. He has been especially interested in the activities of Alpha Eta. Brother Carlisle will be a strong supporter of the Fourteenth Supreme Chapter Meeting.

Brother Leake was general chairman of the committee that put over the Seventh ·District Conclave, which is ample evidence of what he will accomplish on a larger scale for the Supreme Chapter.

Brother Leake came to Birmingham two years ago from Rho Chapter as a member of the faculty at Birmingham-Southern College.

His work in the alumni chapter here has been an inspiration to those who have been associated with him.

As a member of the publicity committee and as chairman of the registration committee, Brother Leake will serve doubly for Pi Kappa Phi's greatest convention. He says that he is expecting to register about four

Birmingham is the heart of the greatest mineral district in the United States. Nature has stored in the mountains of this section a vast chest of mineral wealth, sufficient to last the needs of man for centuries to come.

Geologists have marveled at the lavish richness of these gifts-their great diversity, their almost inexhaustible quantity, th~ir splendid quality and close proximity. The Birmingham district is said to be the only point in the world where all of the materials and properties used in the fluxing of steel can be found within a stone's throw of each other. Steel can be manufactured more cheaply in Birmingham than at any other point in the United States. The present annual production is 1,400,000 tons. Th words

"Birmingham" and "steel" have become almost synonymous terms.

The iron ore deposits in the Birmingham district are sufficient, it is estimated, to last the present blast furnaces 165 years or longer. Geologists gauge these deposits as representing one billion, seven hundred million tons of red ore and twenty-seven millions of brown ore.

The annual production of pig iron in Birmingham is 3,000,000 tons. Eighty per cent of this output is used locally in the manufacture of finished products.

Birmingham is also the second largest Pi Kappa Phi City in the world, and when 1928 rolls around it will have been the scene of the greatest Pi Kapp gathering in the history of the fraternity.

Trustees of the Kahn Fellowship in America include Dr. Nicholas Murray Butler, Edward D. Adams, Charles D. Walcott and Dr. Henry F. Osborn. They are charged with the annual selection of two American scholars of proved aptitude who shall have a year's travel in foreign countries. One of the stipulations attached to acceptance of the Fellowship is the writing of a report, at the end of the year, to be submitted to the Trustees on the impressions received. At the discretion of the Trustees it may be published.

Unpleasant encounters with burly, scowling North-of-China soldiers in blaring, martial Peking; days of gales and sea-swept decks on many oceans; sunshine and blue skies on the French Riviera; deadened England, with gaunt-faced workers in the labor strike and hungry, waiting bread lines-all these and more had their place in Brother McKenzie's mental camera.

Japan, with its astonishing adaptions to Western ways, her industrialization and courtesy, formed one of the initial chapters of the trip. Renewing of acquaintances with former Japanese 'students, returned home, made a pleasant interlude to rounds of receptions and inspections.

China was rumbling with anti-foreign feeling and travel in the Celestial Empire was not pleasant to contemplate. It was on the last train that left Peking at the time, going to Tientsin that Brother McKenzie and his wife left the capital. When the next train left it was fired upon and its passengers forced to flee back.

Until the last ten days before his death, his friends and fraternity brothers were advised that his illness was temporary and his recovery confidently expected. It was, therefore, a great shock when his illness took a serious and fatal turn.

After a noteworthy funeral service on February 25, he was laid to rest in Memorial Park, Evanston, a place henceforth destined to be a shrine for Sigma Alpha Epsilon.

Billy, as he was affectionately known, was born in New Haven, Conn., on October 10, 1872. Left an orphan at an early age, he went to Evanston to live. He was a student in Northwestern University and joined Sigma Alpha Epsilon there. In 1900 he was

The fear of being known as a "highbrow" by one's fraternity brothers might be supplanted by franker interest in the real problems, political, scientific, economic, spiritual, of the world in which we live. The chapter, in seeking new members, might think less about the likelihood that a given freshman will make a team, and more about his keenness of mind and strength of character.

No thoughtful person can regard with complaisance the fact that the fraternities, with their enormous influence upon university life, show a scholarship average regularly below that of the non-fraternity group, and furnish 50 per cent more of disqualified students. Something is evidently wrong with many of them.

Where these things exist, alumni of the sort to be dissatisfied with them can perform no greater and more loyal service to their Alma Mater than to play the part of the older and wiser brother, helping to bring about new an:i better standards of membership, more sincere and sensible methods of rushing, more business-like house management, a greater desire for intellectual growth, and a keener interest in the solutions of great problems of mankind.

"C9le ctJrCiss" Installation

t1

By J. CHESTER REEVES

EVER before have I attended an installation which displayed the true ideals of Pi Kappa Phi as at "Ole Miss" when we brought to light Alpha-Lambda.

The smoldering spirit of Pi Alpha gushed forth to be directed and molded by Pi Kappa Phi Pilots. The hospitality and courtesy extended us were elegant. The assured cooperation and praises bestowed upon us by Chancellor Hume and Dr. Hedleston of the University of Mississippi were magnificent.

Unlimited praises are upon Brother Leo Pou, Seventh District Chapter Inspector and his initiating team. I most graciously mention Brother James Simms, Eta, who was the father of Pi Alpha.

Brothers, our Fraternity is a real one and I realize it more and more each day. Man is pre-eminently a social being. His social nature is the result of the interaction of all his separate and distinct natures. It consists in a balance of faculties . The political nature, the intellectual nature, the religious nature are only the bricks and mortar out of which the social nature is constructed.

Man's political relation is his relation to government and law; his intellectual relation is his relation to truth; his religious relation is his relation to his own actions but his social and fraternal relation is his relation to his fellowmen. Hence, the social relation is the highest one possible.

Manhood is the basic principle and love the binding force of fraternalism. Founded on such lofty principles what may we not reasonably expect from Pi Kappa Phi. Brother Simms of Eta Chapter well brought out our ideals in his address at the final banquet.

That the Fraternity did cement friendship there is ample evidence to prove, for the earliest issues of the Fraternity Magazine are filled with the testimony of those who bore witne!s to the enrichment of their lives through the wealth of sympathetic interest such friendship had bestowed.

throngs attending our colleges there cannot be the opportunity for the development of individuality that once existed.

It is now one hundred years since the fraternity system began. That is a reasonable testing period. Each of the older societies is stronger, richer, better housed and more of an ally of the institutions in which it has its chapters than it was ten years ago. The cooperation between the academic authorities and the fraternity overseers is an established factor today that no one values more highly than the college administrators.

It is true that the intimate homelike life of a chapter tends to distract from study, but it is doubtful if this defect is greater within than it is outside the fraternity. In most respects, in fact, the fraternity reflects the life of the student body as a whole. Every effort is made to maintain decent scholastic and moral standards. There has been a great change for the betterment of the fraternity, it is more democratic since wide expansion.

There has been a great increase in the number of chapters of the established fraternities since the war, and many new organizations have arisen.

Although the work done in preparation for the leadership is perhaps the most important within the scope of the fraternity, it is far from being the only benefit that the members receive. Very valuable indeed is the business training that comes from the association with the chapter's duties and responsibilities in.the undergraduate days. Another opportunity that the fraternity opens to its members is the chance it gives them through its publications, and conventions to get a wide outlook over the entire field of collegiate education. The important part that the fraternity is doing in developing a national type of cultured man is another phase of the work that it is doing for society and one for which it takes little credit to itself. A cultured man with lofty ideals and noble principles is always an honor to the nation. Such is the fraternity-man. The badge he wears is a constant reminder to him that he has pledged himself, both heart and hand to honor and

truth, that he has set his face to the never to turn back. reO The chapter has still within itself. ad\jo· distinct and separate existence.

Upsilon's New Eighty Thousand Dollar Home

By L. W.

MARVIN

Upsilon is now beginning to realize the dream that has been cherished for the past ten years, the ideal to which every fraternity strives and hopes for with selfish pride and anticipation. The new home we have so long planned is now within a few months of being a reality.

The building we now occupy has served us about ten years. It has been ours from the organization of Gamma Sigma Kappa, the local chapter prior to affiliating with Pi Kappa Phi. It has been a struggle to obtain the equity we now have in the building and it has meant a good deal of work and worry on the part of men now alumni as well as active members, with the help and advice of faculty members.

As campus life has advanced and a fraternal life advanced correspondingly, numerous steps have been made for better things. An increased interest in activities, a higher type of men sought for fraternities, great numbers of men in one organization and new fraternity homes to accommodate the increased numbers. All these are the result of continuous progression over a period of ten years.

It is this last phase that Upsilon is particularly interested in at present. A new home means additional men, of an even higher social standing on the campus, an assurity of a standing equal to all other fraternities with r egard to political, managerial, and athletic rating. Of coursa, it wi11 provide a wonderful environment inducive to higher scholasti c average, a great er incentive to acquire the routine s tudies with the extremely pleasant surroundings as the background.

We have purchased the lot for our new home, a piece of property 100 feet by 114 feet.

On thi s will be built an $80,000 home. It will be of Georgian architecture, the type of buildings now on the campu s at Illinois. It will be a two and a half -story structure, study

PULSE OF THE FRATERNITY Epsilon Plans Paper

Four Graduate at Charleston Alpha Chapter loses four of her best men by graduation this year. They are Brothers Al Taylor, Bob Achurch, Cowlson Barfield and Bob Whitelaw. These men have for four years been quite active both in fraternity and student affairs, so it is with great regret that we see them leave.

Amongst the various student activities in which members of the chapter have taken an outstanding part during the past year are many of note. At present Brother Taylor is playing shortstop on the varsity baseball team, and during the basketball season was captain of the team as well as regular at the position of running guard.

Brother Hamilton is holding down the position of third base on the baseball team, while Brother Oates, as catcher, is one of the outstanding players.

Brothers "Bob" Achurch and Whitelaw are taking leading parts in the college play, "Outward Bound." Brother Whitelaw is quite a devotee of the drama, and has held the presidency of the dramatic society for th.e past two years. He is also an artist of ability.

Brother Barfield is editor-in-chief of this year's annual. His scholastic standing has always been the admiration of his friends, and during his four years here he has been rr..uch interested in athletics and music.

Brother Croft during the past year has been honored with the presidency of the sophomore class.

Brothers Doscher and Browne have been very active in the publication of Collegiana, the college newspaper.

Alpha is planning to have her formal on the 25th of April and all indications are that it will prove an immense success. Several house parties are also being planned for later in the season.

By R. C. GRADY hYte· On February 11 the following neoP . 1·r the!"~ were received in as full-fledged bro bOJ'I Pi Kappa Phi: W. H. Best, Jr., GoidsS ~ N. C.; P. B. Boyd, Warrenton, N.

L~~!f Since the last issue of THE STAR AND f 1 Epsilon has taken steps, in the forrn ~her 0 chapter paper, to keep abreast of the h~P' chapters in the publication field.

There were girls from everyties i~ t~t.ertained by the various fraternithe p路 eir homes, and you can be sure that our hI I<apps had a choice selection over at \Vas t ouse on Oxford road. The entire house el(cenurned over to the girls and they proved 'hh ent hostesses on all occasions. .l e f' SPons Irst feature was a basketball game the g ored by Pan-Hellenic Council. After Perfoatne there was a tea-dance. A Glee Club trnance was next, and everyone listened

with a most attentive ear while they were resting up for the "Big Pan-Hellenic" dance that night, which was to be given at Druid Hill's. Can you think for a minute of that huge ballroom with the lights giving the appearance of twilight? Even a moon could be seen rising over a mass of beautifully arranged flowers.

Saturday held just as many interesting events as did Friday. A Roadster show brought new thrills, for it was quite an unusual affair. About twenty men, the members of a literary fraternity, selected their girls and the group passed in review for the judges to choose the best couple. After this everyone gathered at the Delta Tau Delta house for a few more hours of real fun. Saturday afternoon a tea-dance was given and followed that night by the second Pan-Hellenic at Druid Hill's. Sunday morning a breakfast party was given by the Pi Kapps

and proved quite a success. That afternoon all the fraternities held open house and with this event the most enjoyable week-end had ended.

This has been a most successful year for Eta. We pledged thirteen men.

March 27, three out of the four last pledges, to be taken in, were initiated. They were: Ed Lowenhaupt, Sam Perry and Clyde Sinclair. The revised ritual was used with our new initiation equipment.

Present at the initiation were several alumni from the Atlanta chapter and Broth3r Fish from Pi and Brother Gracey from Lambda.

April 3 Eta is having a smoking party for the Alumni and at that time we will put on a model initiation, taking in the last pledge, William Tumlin.

At a recent meeting of the Alumni Council of Emory University, Brother Nixon, who is Supreme Historian of Pi Kappa Phi, was elected Alumni Secretary. :£!~ •~1((.. SIV f!Sl:!!

Items From Iota

By WILLIAM DUNN, JR. For the past few weeks our best pool shots have been practicing in order to be in pink of condition for the interfraternity pocket billiard tournament. It happened that one of our brothers conceived of the idea of a tournament and plans are being made for it to come off the first part of May. We gave our annual costume ball April 25, at East Lake Club and a large number of alumni and brothers from nearby chapters were present.

The following brothers were initiated April 16: Bob Reeves, Atlanta, Ga.; Ed White, Watkinsville, Ga.; Albert Cornell, Barnwell, S. C.; and Chas. Price, Atlanta, Ga. Spring fever has not yet taken hold of our chapter from a scholastic standpoint. The desire for knowledge has gripped the chapter with such great force that our 's cholastic standing has been moved from fourteenth to seventh place.

Pi chapter held its second term election and the following brothers were installed in office: Hardin, archon; Stacy, secretary; Fisch, treasurer; Brunson, historian, and Fox, warden.

Pi still owns its house on Peachtree Road and we are planning to give it a thorough spring cleaning. It is our custom on every Thursday night to have open house and the boys are invited to bring their girl friends out and we have an informal party.

After spring cleaning we have eight brothers who are ready to live in the house.

Taft, secretary; L. R. La Bruce, chaplain ; H. B. Barwick, warden.

We had a flashy team to represent Tau in the inter-fraternity basketball league this past season. The various fraternities were divided into groups. Pi Kapps were winners in their group. Our team kept steadily climbing towards the championship but were defeated by the team which won the inter-fraternity championship. The Pi Kapp team was composed of Howie (captain) and Cox, forwards; Wimbish, center; Honeycutt and Garribaldi, guards.

We are glad to have back with us Jack

"Hooker" Spence who played a regular position at forward on the State basketball team this year was second high score man on the team.

Wilson Kilgore is representing the fraternity in the school of public speaking. He is prominent in inter-collegiate contests and is a member of Pi Kappa Delta, a national forensic fraternity.

We have recently moved from our home on Forest Road to a beautiful house just across the street from the campus. This house is one of the best if not the best of the fraternity houses at N. C. State. We are planning to give a tea dance soon.

Chi Leads Stetson Campus By

BERT

C. EUSTICE

When the final curtain descends on this school year it will bring to a close one of Chi Chapter's most successful years as leader of the Stetson campus.

To begin the year we moved into our new home, which without a doubt is the best house on the campus. The fellows have shown fine co-operation all year, and the house has been our source of pride during the entire year, and will continue to be so in the years to come.

Th e Stetson Collegiate, the school paper, which has been dormant for more than a year, was brought to life about a month ago largely through the persistent and untiring effort of Brother James W. Carr, who has been elected editor-in-chief. He was the guiding spirit in the organization of the Student Publication Board, which is now putting out the paper with Brother Carr as the leader. He is from St. Petersburg, Florida, and has been in Stetson's school of business administration for three years, being a senior in that department this year. During his stay on the Stetson campus Brother Carr has been popular from the first. He has been a

to Walter Dernberger, a junior, we extend the right hand of brotherhood for his scholastic and athletic ability.

He has the highest average of any individual which is 3.38. Last term he lacked a few points of an "A" average and won three letter sweaters and a medal for track honors. Thus far this term his achievements have been with the fairer sex, at the initiation banquet April 16, Walt announced his engagement to Miss Helen Bischof of Pontiac, Michigan.

Kenneth Trapp one of our six footers and the famous bowler of the College, added two cups to our collection during the winter term.

One is for the highest score in one game and the other for the highest average for all games of the interfraternity bowling league.

His high scoring ability gave him the privilege of rolling a match against Jimmy Smith, the World's Champion.

Several of the boys have answered the call to the cinder track and foremost among them is Robert Dearing of Detroit. While in High School "Bob" set some distance records.

While only a yearling on the track he has showed up remarkably well and in a short time he should be able to step the mile with State's premier miler, Henry Wiley, well known in the Central and Western States.

Roy Brigham, Fred Hodge and Howard Trapp a pledge, were the other men to answer the call.

Last but not least come the seniors, four in number, who are destined to leave their Alma Mater June 10.

Harold Lakin, of Portland, probably has done as much for the chapter as any one member. Since joining as a freshman he has worked hard and cheerfully that the name of Pi Kappa Phi be outstanding on the campus. "Chick" is a member of the Alpha-Zeta honorary Agriculture Fraternity and Scabbard and Blade the honorary Military Fraternity.

Franklin Creager, of Three Rivers, a Mechanical Engineer, deserves a lot of credit for the advancement of the Fraternity. He is a member of the Phi Lambda Tau honorary Engineering Fraternity. "Hap" has been Archon for two terms and has functioned
