Our Fraternity To only a few is given the privilege of a panoramic perspective of our fraternity, and we feel that it is a distinct loss to those who are not in position to receive it. To give you a concrete intimation of the background of Pi Kappa Phi and its position today, to give you a slight bit of the the inspiration and pleasure that is ours every day, this yearbook of the fraternity is placed in your hands. It was originally issued during the past summer to serve the purpose of making available to the active chapters in an attractive form the information about the fraternity whi~h the prospective pledge desires to know. It met with instant and widespread approval, to the extent that we made the decision to distribute it to every member of the fraternity. We trust that you will enjoy and cherish it. A happy and successful New Year for you all is a fervent wish of ours. The Editors.

IT WAS NOT a vagary of fortune which launched Pi Kappa Phi on the seas of nationalism but a definitely preconceived idea held by the founders of the original chapter. From vision to fruition , from weakness to strength, from provincialism to nationalism has been alternately a voyage of storm and fair weather, but there has never been Jacking the vision, the leadership, the inspiration, the steady hand upon the controls. The organization as it is presently constituted is a memorial of the faith, energy, and self-sacrifice of the mariners of the past and the present.

ON December 10, 1904, in Charleston, South Carolina, a sma ll but earnest group of collegians gathered together in the home of the parents of one of them. . All were Charlestonians by birth; all had been close!{ assoc~ated with each other during their school life; ali were, a~ the time, attending the time-honored College of Charleston, t e oldest of municipal colleges. At this meeting Pi Kappa ~h1 was born. Pre,.nt were: Andrew Alexander Kroeg, Jr., '05; 1mon Fogarty, Jr., '06; Anthony Pelzer Wagener, '06; Law-

for a charter from a group he had organized. At an institution about as far removed from South Carolina as possible, Gamma Chapter was established . This act signified that Pi Kappa Phi had a destiny truly national. It added another canto to an epic of faith, affection, and the kindness of fate, qualities without which no fraternity has become truly national.

The election of Carro ll placed for the first time the mantle of leadership on a man outside of Charleston . He holds the record of continuous officia l service-twelve and one-half years-to the fraternity, which has never had a more zea lous and active upholder. Under his guidance the first alumni chapter was organized/ at Columbi a, South Carolina. Although membership in the Inter raternity Con· ference dates from 1911, Cha rl es K.

The con· vention held at the Isle of Palms, near Charleston, au· thorized the publication of an esoteric magazine, to be ca ll ed The Fokromix.

ADRIAN MAxWELL takes the lead among members of this chapter in extra-curricular activities. He played stellar ball in the backfield of the football team. Swimming records mean little to him; the 100-yard record has fallen twice to his speed and he rang up a new one for the 50-yard free style. He was a member of the relay swimming team that set up a new mark for speed. Many of the men are musically inclined. One has just composed a Home of Alpha Tau school song which has become quite popular. Three are prominent in glee club activities, one being a member of the quartet. Three play in the school band and two in the symphony orchestra. In interfraternity competition, the chapter obtained its place in the sun by winning the championship of its league in basAdriatt Maxwell ketball. Record Holder, Swimmit~g; To summarize additional activities, this chapter had four men Varsity Football playing varsity football; two men on the rifle team; one major letter, four minor letters, and ten numerals won; one representative on the Student Council; one freshman secretary; and the following memberships in engineering societies: A.S.C.E., 3, A.S.M.E., 1, A.I.E.E., 7, A.E.Ch.E., 1; in athletic societies: R Club, 3; B.O.R., 1.

Roanoke Alumni Chapter THE

CONCLAVES

held in Roanoke have become famous in the fraternity's annals

for their attendance, the results secured, and the pleasures enjoyed. Back in the early 20's, Supreme Archon A. Pelzer Wagener, at the time district inspector for the state, introduced the idea of an annual affair between Xi and Rho for the purpose of improving inter-chapter contacts. The get-together usually took the form of a dinner-dance. Through the efforts of district archons and the alumni group in Roanoke these affairs have gradually widened their horizon as well as their scope. From a chapter to a state occasion was the first step, and in recent years this has graduated into inter-district meeting. The dinner-dance has become a banquet and dance, which is preceded by a full day of meetings of undergraduates, alumni, and district officials.

A Typical Roanoke Conclave (1931)

With the attainment of inter-district status the annual meeting is no longer an event to be left in the hands of the Roanoke alumni and Xi and Rho Chapters. The chapters of other states have made a bid for it, and the 1932 meeting will be held in Durham, North Carolina, the four chapters in North Carolina acting as hosts. This meeting is scheduled each year for the week-end which closely approximates the date of Founders' Day, December 10.

Alumni and District Activities THE CHARTERED alumni organization in North Carolina is the Charlotte Alumni Chapter. This has ever been consistently active in behalf of the fraternity, being particularly concerned with the welfare of the chapters in the state. Dr. Robert A. Moore, Alpha, heads this chapter. Unchartered but organized alumni groups are to be found in Raleigh and Greensboro. Charters will be granted in the near future. The entire state is looking forward to the holding of the interdistrict conclave in Durham, December 10, 1932. Although interchapter social affairs have been held frequently; this event will mark the extension of such activities to include the states of Virginia and South Carolina, and representatives from chapters in other adjoining districts if they desire to attend. The excellent conclaves held in Roanok~ have set a standard which the men of North Carolina are determined shall be maintained, and exceeded if at all possible. The proximity of Kappa, Mu, and Tau Chapters has offered a fertile field for inter-chapter contact and cooperation. Kappa has led the way in establishing the custom of having frequent, informal meetings among these chapters. They take the form of dinner-table discussions. The close geographical distribution of chapters within the state, interested alumni groups, and a most active district archon are admirable means for obtaining cohesion and unity within the district. These and time have brought forth a fraternityconscious district which is second to none.

Alumni Activities THERE are two chartered alumni chapters and another in formation

the

State of Georgia. The Atlanta Alumni Chapter has a long and active history behind it and takes a recognized place of leadership in the graduate chapters of the fraternity. It has been host on two occasions to the national convention, and its annual radio broadcast on Founders' Day is considered one of the most attractive programs of the year of local character. The chapters which are able to get the Atlanta station on their radio make it a point each year to complete their own Founders' day program in time to listen to the Atlanta celebration, which comes as a most fitting climax. The Athens Alumni Chapter was organized for the purpose of encouraging and advising Lambda Chapter in its various activities. It is of distinct and proven value to the chapter to have this unified group of men in such close proximity and so whole-heartedly behind them. The result has been a chapter which is acceptable in all phases of activity. The alumni in Macon have started an organization which should play as important a part in the affairs of Alpha Alpha Chapter, thus completing the roll of Georgia chapters with organized alumni support and assistance.

The Alabama Tri-district Conclave

ANNUALLY the University of Alabama chapter (Omicron) plays host to a gathering of members of the fraternity from their own district and those nearby. The above picture is reminiscent of these meetings and shows a typical gathering. In it are the representatives from the three chapters in Alabama, from the twO chapters in Tennessee, from four of the five chapters of Georgia, from the chapters in Mississippi and Louisi路 ana, and from the alumni chapters of Birmingham, Atlanta, and Montgomery. Two national officers, one past national officer, and four district officers were present for the sessions. The program for these meetings take up the entire week-end, beginning usually on Friday night with a smoker and entertainment. Saturday is taken up fully by round-table discussions on chapter problems and consideration of the affairs of the several districts. The formal program is climaxed by a banquet that evening. Sunday is devoted to fireside fellowship. This annual custom is another excellent example of the inter-chapter contact and cooperation which is being brought about through district meetings throughout the fraternity.

The Michigan Scholarship Trophies ABOVE are pictured the cups which are a source of individual and chapter rivalry in scholarship in the State of Michigan. To Alpha Theta and Alpha Kappa Chapters the Detroit Alumni Chapter presented a cup to be awarded each year to the member of the chapter attaining the highest grades. On each cup is engraved the name of the yearly winner. J. Wilson Robinson, then district archon, gave to the chapters a cup for inter-chapter competition. The chapter which wins it three times is to be given permanent possesion. The award this year will decide the permanent possessor, each chapter having had possession for two years. An annual meeting of the two chapters and the Detroit Alumni Chapter is held for the purpose of awarding these trophies.

Mothers' Clubs

A Gathering of Mothe1路s of Gamma Chapter Mrs. W. D. Truesdale P1路esident of Omega Mothers

A PLEASING and influential adjunct organization of the fraternity is the Mothers' Club. Many of the chapters of the fraternity enjoy the aid and inspiration found in these clubs, among them being Gamma, Eta, Iota, Nu, Upsilon, Omega, Alpha Alpha, Alpha Beta, Alpha Gamma, Alpha Delta, Alpha Zeta, and Alpha Rho. They are all working consistently and effectively to improve the living conditions of the homes of the chapters. This is being done by gifts of furnishings and by individual merit awards. A happy annual event which has grown out of this contact has been the chapter Mothers' Day. Some of the chapters without a Mothers' Club hold this occasion also, and quite a few have introduced a Dads' Day.
