Past Gives Inspiration /or Future By BROTHER RICHARD l. YOUNG*

Q N MY PAPER, T. do a daily column, " f Remember When," dealing with events, places, and persons of bygone years. Naturally, my ego was inHated when the little column became a popular feature as people showed interest in Charlotte's history. My experience in writing the column also disproved, to me at least, the theory that when you start referring to the past you are growing old. I claimed that reference to the past was interesting and I was proud when our readers also found it interesting. As a matter of fact, we refer to the past for inspiration. Aren't we all better Americans when we turn the pages of our history book and read of the heroic exploits of George Washington and his barefoot soldiers who left their blood in their foot prints in the snow at Vall ey Forge? Do we not appreciate more our freedom today when we recall the hardships and sufferings of our forefathers. And when we turn to our Bibles and read the tragic story of Jesus Christ and His suffering and death on the cross and move to the joyous recital of the first Easter morn when He arose from the grave to bring everlastin g life to all who would belive, we become better Christians, and we are better equipped to meet the challenges and problems of our complex lives today. And so, brieHy this morning, let us turn back to the beginning of Pi Kappa Phi, get a glimpse of those early days, examine the foundations of our brotherhood, review the progress of the raising of the superstructure, and then we may more deeply appreciate our membership in the Fraternity and resolve to exemplify more clearly the principles laid down by our Founders.

It was on December 10, 1904, that eight youn g men filed through the door of 90 Broad Street, Charleston, S. C., and walked up the stairs to the si tting room of the home of Si Fogarty's parents. This gathering, when eight resolved to establish a college fraternity, followed ea rlier discussions by Harry Mixson , Si Fogarty, and Andrew Kroeg, all Charleston natives, students at the College of Charleston, and friends since boyhood. They had already determined to solidify their friendship through a formal organization and to offer to others the benefits of such friendship. And so they invited five others of similar standing and of like mind in serious search of knowledge to join them and the group gathered that December evening at Si Fogarty's house, and Pi Kappa Phi came into being.

And because that group of youthful collegians 56 years ago thought enough of their friendship to preserve it and met in solemn session to proclaim it to the world, we are gathered here this morning. Young men, just like those of half a century ago, are come from the four corners of this land; they bear the imprint of the fraternalism of Mixson, of Fogarty, and of Kroeg; they wear the badge of honor that has been handed down by our Founders, and they proudly proclaim to the world that they are members of Pi Kappa Phi.

And by their conduct they follow in the footsteps of our Fraternity's trail blazers and say to men everywhere, "We believe in truth, in friendship, in justice, in freedom, and in the brotherhood of man." That is the ideal of our founders, that is the goal of our fraternity, and may we bless the day that they gave us that goal.

By NATIONAL PRESIDENT J. AL. HEAD

THE RESPONSIBILITY of being National President for the ensuing two years is large. It is a trust which I accept in humble inadequacy. The feeling of inadequacy that one has when brought to a position of responsibility and trust is so overwhelming that one needs the counsel and trust of al l the members of our Fraternity. The enthusiasm and wisdom that is installed into National President J . AI. Head one as a result of associating with undergraduates at a Supreme Chapter Meeting is something that all of us should have the privilege of feeling. These young men bring great honor unto themselves, for when they sit together as a Supreme Chapter with a nominal number of alwnni and discuss problems of mutual concern, it is easy for all of us to reaffirm the principles upon which our Fraternity is founded. It is easy for us to state and to know for certainty that the heritage of Pi Kappa Phi will never falter. I assure you that the National Council, composed of men dedicated to their Fraternity, will carry out and execute the policies adopted and reaffirmed at the Supreme Chapter Meeting. The execution, however, of these policies can only be accomplished with the full support of ead1 alumnus and undergraduate chapter working individually and collectively to the betterment of our Fraternity. It behooves each individual member, be he an undergraduate or an alumni member, to work for the good of the whole through his respective chapter.

I challenge each tmderg1路adttate chapter to initiate five more men than they did last yem路. I challenge each active a!tmmi chapter to have at least bi-monthly meetings. I cha/len~;e each i?tactive chapter (a!ttmni) to reactivate itself and have at least qttarterly meetings.

If these things are accomplished, the future of our Fraternity- financially, fraternally, and sp iritually-is assured. One conclud ing thought- pointed directly at the undergraduate members of our Fraternity- is that an adequate education is why you are enrolled in sd10ol. This education can only be achieved through an optimum scholarship . We have not exerted our best in the pastWe must accept the challenge and resolve to rededicate ourselves to the fundamental principles of our brotherhood to the end that scholarship is brought to the forefro nt. If you do, you as an individual prosper, as well as Pi Kappa Phi. ~OVEMBER,

Brother Jimmy long, past Archon of Sigma, University of South Carolina, left, who did much to help his chapter earn this great honor, is receiving the Theron A. Houser Award from Brother R. E. Register, Jr., Sigma's Chapter Adviser.

Sigma Is First Winner MOST AWARDS are given in recognition of excellence in a particular field to the point of being better than all others. This oftentimes eliminates from competition some chapters which need several years of improvement in order to be in a position to compete. The Theron A. Houser Memorial Award for Chapter Achievement has the distinction of recognizing overall d1apter improvement in various fields without the necessity of top performance in any one field or top performance for a particular period. The Theron A. Houser Memorial Award was created in 1959 when an anonymous donation was given to the Fraternity in Brother Houser's name for such a use. The Award is a " traveling" award, extremely handsome, and highly valued by its recipient. The first recipient of the Theron A . Houser Memorial Award is Sigma Chapter at the University of South Carolina. T aking into consideration as many of the var ious areas of Fraternity operll'tion as possible, Sigma Chapter has exhibited outstanding improvement from its position held in the school year 1958-59. As an example, Sigma Chapter rose from position number 48 on the Master Chapter rating to position number 19. This is but one example of their improvement during the past year's operation. Much of the credit for the success of Sigma Chapter this past year must be given to Brother Robert Register, Chapter Adviser. Brother Register has contributed greatly to the success of the chapter by his personal interest and his dedication to the chapter's betterment. Close runner-ups for the Theron A. Houser Memorial A ward were Xi Chapter at Roanoke College in second place and Beta Xi Chapter at Central Michigan University in third. Both of these chapters have developed tremendously during the past year, and they too are to be congratulated for their improvement.

JN THE FALL of 1920, Brother Wade S. Bolt,

who for five years had edited The Star and Lamp, dropped his editorial mantle upon Brother Richard L. ("Dick") Young. Brother Young started his work with the November issue. " A Word in Passing," by Brother Bolt, served both as his own bow out as Eminent Supreme Journalist and Editor-in-Chief of The Star and Lamp and as introduction of Brother Young as his successor. Brother Bolt announced that he would remain on the staff, serving as Editor of the Exchange Department. An editorial exhorted the undergraduate members to make the best possible use of their college opportunities to prepare themselves for the time when they would take their places in the business or professional world. From this editorial we quote the following paragraph:

The editor urged that news be sent to Th e Star and Lamp and sent promptly.

Tau Chapter at North Carolina State was installed in Kappa's house at the University of North Carolina May 1, 1920. Kappa lent its house because the then North Carolina College of Agriculture and Engineering did not permit fraternities to use houses.

It will be recalled that Past National President Theron A. Houser was called on by the 27th Supreme Chapter two years ago to write the history of Pi Kappa Phi, covering the Fraternity's second 25 years. In less than six months after Brother Houser accepted his assignment, he joined the Chapter Eternal. Up to the time of the 28th Supreme Chapter in Louisville last August no one had been named to succeed him. Following this most recent convention, National Historian Louis P. Jervey, Jr., asked Brother Richard L.

A story entitled "Pi Kapp Makes Phenomenal Record" highlights Brother Joe Sewell's leap into Big League baseball. "Buying a ball player for his fielding ability and finding that he is also a nifty slugger is the luck of Tris Speaker," the story declared. "In his first few games as a regular with the Cleveland Indians, Joe Sewell is cutting as big a swath with his bat as he is with his shortstopping ... Sewell is a product of the University of Alabama baseball team. He is in the majors before completing his first full year in the minors."

Brother Young to Write History

Pa!

Through his friendship with Brother Harold H. Lewis of Nu Chapter, Brother Lieurance was asked to become a member of the chapter. He was initiated June 4, 1920. He said that although he had been initiated into many other secret and fraternal organizations, he had never accepted a more beautiful or sacred ritual than that of Pi Kappa Phi.

"Pi Kapps, you are part and parcel of this great American collegehood. Do your part in shaping your lives for the great service which is bound to be yours. Let it not be said of one who has seen the light under the Star and Lamp and who knows the value of brotherhood and co-operation that he snubbed his life in the eventful days of now. Do your work and do it well. Some day your chance will come. By the light of flickering fire coals Abraham Lincoln prepared for the presidency. He declared that he would get ready for some day when his chance might come. And it did. And most of all he was equal to the occasion and measured up to the standard of one of the country's greatest men."

A long article from Musical America told much about the tribal music of the Taos Pueblo Indians at Taos, N. M., and highlighted Brother Thurlow

Lieurance's activities in obtaining recordings of a great deal of this music. The article points out that "in many Indian tribes Mr. Lieurance is considered 'good medicine.' .. The Taos Pueblos have a dialect name for him, 'Him-First-Friend,' and it is because of their high regard for him that he has been allowed to record many of their ceremonial and spirit songs."

5704 EiKhth Rd., N. A..li11gton 5, Va. D ear Editors: Your issue of August, 1960, recorded the passing of Brother Edgar Ross Woodson Gunn, Eta '13, Emory University. With his passing, Pi Kappa Phi lost one of its most enthusiastic members. When I was a student at old Emory College, Oxford, Ga., when our century was a teen-ager, I knew him as Colonel Gunn, and did not know that he had so many names. He ran the general store in the stone building adjoining the Post Office. He always wore his blue and gold Emory sweater and his Fraternity pin. He always had time to talk to us Pi Kapps and talked to us as one of us and not as an older man. The mail would come over from the railroad station at Covington about dark. While it was being sorted, we sat around the pot-bellied stove in Gunn's store and chewed the fat and bought his peanuts, bananas, crackers, and smoking tobacco (no one in Oxford sold tailor made cigarettes), and paid him in cash when we had it, and, if we did not have cash, Colonel was always good for a litttle something on the cuff. I know that the Great Archon has welcomed him cordiallv. He could not do otherwise for one who so loved his fellow man. EMORY C. PHARR, Eta '16 Emory College at Oxford

(t(tWith Honor NATIONAL PRESIDENT Brother J. Al. Head of Salem, Ore., was elected National President at the 28th Supreme Chapter Meeting in Louisville in August. He moved up to this post from that of National Secretary, the office to which he was named in late 195 5 to fill the unexpired term of Brother Wayne Moore. Brother Head was National Secretary from 1946 until 1950. He is Assistant Traffic Engineer for the Oregon State Highway Department, and he is a Registered Professional Engineer in the State of Oregon, branch of civil engineering. Brother Head was active in campus affairs at the University of Oregon where he enrolled in 1933. In Alpha Zeta Chapter he was Secretary in 1934 and Archon in 1935 and in 1939. He was graduated from Oregon State in 1939, with a B. S. Degree in Civil Engineering. As an alumnus, Brother Head has been active in various phases of work in Pi Kappa Phi, helping the undergraduate chapters to maintain their high social moral, and scholastic standards and to have a real "home away from home" on the campus. In addition to his activities in connection with the over-all program of the national

organization, Brother Head works especially with the undergraduate and alumni chapters in Oregon. He stayed out of college three years between his junior and senior years and worked for the Oregon State Highway Department. His work with this department has just about run the gamut of all positions in the Traffic Engineering Division, from Office Assistant to his present position of Assistant Traffic Engineer. He took his present post in 1943 and has held it with varying degrees of responsibility to date. His work is primarily administrative and calls for supervising the operation of the whole department and handling personnel, budget control, administrative procedures, and the planning of many highway and traffic features throughout the entire state. In recent years, Brother Head has been increasingly active in national work with the Institute of Traffic Engineers and with the Western Association of State Highway Officials. In 1955, Brother Head moved from the Vice-Presidency to the Presidency of the Western Section of the Institute of Traffic Engineers. In November, 1958, he was elected as a National Director of the Institute of Traffic Engineers, representing the 11 western states.

NATIONAL SECRETARY Brother Ben W. Covington, Jr., Myrtle Beach, S. C., who was elected National Secretary at the 28th Supreme Chapter Meeting in Louisville in August, has been interested and active in Pi Kappa Phi since his undergraduate days at Beta, Presbyterian College. At the time of his election, he was District President of District IV, a post he held in 1937-39. He is the only new member of the National Council. Initiated in 1930, Brother Covington held every office in the chapter. In continuing his service to the Fraternity, he organized the alumni chapter at Florence, S. C., and served as its first President. He did the same thing in Washington, D. C., and was General Chairman for the 1942 Supreme Chapter Meeting which was to be held in Washington but which was canceled at the outbreak of World War II. During his first term as District President, he organized the first District Conclave. He organized the District Presidents' Conference held at the 28th Supreme Chapter Meeting. Brother Covington entered the Army in 1940. He is a graduate of the Armored Basic and Advanced Officers Course, Command and General Staff College, and Industrial College of Armed Forces. His varied military career has included many assignments around the world. His service has included assignments to the Office of Undersecretary of Defense, 11th Armored Division and 2nd Armored Corps, China Theatre as Deputy Chief of 4

HWho Seeks for Aid Must Show How Service Sought Can Be Repaid."-Meredith LAW XII, Section 6-Supreme Law of Pi Kappa Phi Fraternity: "Exceptionally meritorious service by a member of the Fraternity may be recognized by a suitable certifi.cate of citation. The National Council shall nominate to the Supreme Chapter at its biennial meeting such members as in its opinion may be worthy of said honor, and upon a majority vote of the Supreme Chapter, the award shall be made. Not more than six such awards shall be made by any one Supreme Chapter." For outstanding service to their Fraternity, Pi Kappa Phi, the 28th Supreme Chapter has awarded the Merit Citation to Brother James S. Mims, Alpha Beta , and to Brother Charles Tom H enderson, Chi . The award to Brother Mims was granted posthumously, he having died in February, 1959. Brother Mims was initiated into Alpha Beta Chapter at TuBrother James S. Mims lane University in 1928. His service to his community was recognized by a Louisiana paper which stated, " It is improbable that Louisiana will ever again see the likes of Jimmy Mims; and the state's great good fortune is that it once numbered such a man among its citizens." His service to Pi Kappa Phi was indeed great, although it was an act of service of only a few short years . Pi Kappa Phi was in the process of placing a chapter on the campus of Northwestern State College, Louisiana, in 1956. In order to do so there was great need of at least one alumnus to assist the National Fraternity actively. Pi Kapps were few and far between at that time in the area surrounding the college. Brother Mims, a cattleman of RFD 2, Natchitoches, La., ans-

T H E

wered the call and worked diligently toward the activation of Beta Omicron Chapter. This was with great sacrirfice on his part, as to time, money, and personal contributions. He then served as Chapter Adviser until his untimely death at the age of 49. Standing as tribute to his service to the Fraternity is Beta Omicron Chapter of Pi Kappa Phi, a Master Chapter in 1960. Brother Charles Tom Henderson, Chi 22, Stetson University, has long and diligently served Pi Kappa Phi. As Assistant Attorney General for the State of Florida, his residence is in Tallahassee. When Florida State University opened its doors to male students, Brother Henderson immediately began to dream of a chapter of Pi Kappa Phi there. This dream was fulfilled, Brother C. T. Henderson after much hard work by Brother Henderson, when Beta Eta Chapter was installed. The installation of the chapter was only the beginning of Brother Henderson's service. Through his judgment, perseverance, and love, Beta Eta Chapter is extremely well housed, has strong membership and administrative characteristics, and always exhibits outstanding fraternal traits. Brother Henderson continues to serve Beta Eta Chapter as its alumni adviser, and also as Treasurer of its building corporation. His advice and consultation is always available for the students of Beta Eta Chapter. Brother Henderson has also served Pi Kappa Phi Fraternity as a District President of District VI. He resigned this position in 1959 in order to devote more of his time and energy to Beta Eta Chapter at Florida State. His devotion is truly remarkable and an inspiration to all who have an opportunity to know him.

Our Great Atnerican College Fraternity System

WrOJ

By HONORABLE GEORGE GRANT* of Alabama

tern then tion

In the House of Representatives, September 1

inF

MR. GRA T. Mr. Speaker, during the last few years, an attempt has been made by certain persons to bring about a change in our great American college fraternity system. These "would-be changers" seem to overlook the fact that college fraternities, as they have functioned through the years, have rendered a distinct service to college life in many ways. For example, friendships due to close association in undergraduate years are kept alive by alumni members throughout life. However, it is not my purpose here to defend the college fraternity system, as such; this I would gladly do in another forum. The pros and cons of the college fraternity system is not the issue at this time; I am here to call attention to the membership of this I louse the real threat that will eventually destroy these organizations through forcing them to lift all restrictions relating to membership.

I believe I can approach this subject with an unbiased opinion. Upon entering college, I did not join a fraternity. Later, when I did, this was the first secret organization of which I became a member. Some of my best friends in college were not members of any fraternity, while others were members of fraternities for which I could not meet the membership qualifications. My college fraternity accepted only those students who professed the Christian religion and were members of the Caucasian race. Generally speaking, the membership of the Ancient Free and Accepted Masons is restricted to those of the Jewish and Protestant Christian faiths; Elks, members of the Caucasian race, and so on. SHOULD INTEREST GROUPS NOT ORGANIZE?

My college fraternity was founded by two Protestants and a Catholic. Later, I joined the Woodmen of the World, Elks, Moose, and the Masonic bodies, including the Shrine. I have sat in Masonic and Shrine meetings with members of the Jewish faith and in the Elks and other secret orders with members of the Protestant, Catholic, and Jewish faiths. Certainly, there has been nothing other than brotherly relations in these groups. Now, do you mean to tell me that this is un-American?

members of the Caucasian race; nor would I say to a Jewish fraternity that it must accept those of other faiths, to a Catholic fraternity that it must accept members other than Catholics, to Acacia that it must accept members other than Masons-none of these things would I do-any more than I would tell a church what members it must accept. While the present challenge of changing membership restrictions seems to be directed only toward college fraternities, if its advocates are successful on this level, they will eventually move to all fraternal orders, such as the Masons, Knights of Columbus, Knights of Pythias. Woodmen of the World, Benevolent and Protective Order of Elks, Moose, Shrine, and many others. FEELING OF FRATERNALISM

By nature, there is a feeling of fraternalism in the heart of man; do nothing to suppress it. Because man wants to limit this close, social fraternalism in no way signifies that he does not believe or give voice to hope and faith in universal brotherhood or that he necessarily believes in discrimination in the sense it is today used, particularly in politics and political life. Keep politics out of fraternities! We must be careful that in our zeal for democracy we do not destroy democracy itself; keep up this trend, and in time fraternities will be mere instruments of the Statebeing told whom, when, and how they must initiate. Change the membership restrictions because of the explanation of its advocates that this is all they want, and the next thing will be "Now that you claim to have changed your constitution and by-laws relating to membership, show evidence of good faith; in other words. show that you mean it by initiating a certain number of those whom you did not heretofore solicit." PRINCIPLES

WILL

NEVER CHANGE

Members of the Negro race have Masonic and Elks orders of their own which are large organizations. To confuse this issue with that of civil rights is pure folly. This has nothing to do with civil rights or any phase of integration. Certainly, I would not propose to all Negro fraternities and sororities that they be required to accept

Everything in America is not wrong. Change for the sake of change should never be. Everything that is old is not necessarily wrong. The principles upon which college fraternities were founded will never change. There are certain truths that are eternal-the same yesterday. today, and tomorrow. Truth, love, and honesty will never change; and, in my opinion, this great American college fraternity system should not either.

worthy of continuance. It is high time to make up our minds. As for me, mine is made up. This is one place where there can be no compromise. Either the selective system of membership is right, or it is wrong. If it is wrong, then the whole fraternity system is wrong. If fraternities are a bad influence on college life-let's prohibit them-either by legislation in state universities or by action of the Board of Trustees or other proper authorities in private schools. If one believes that the fraternity system has no place in American colleges, then let him come out in the open and advocate the abolition of all fraternities. In other words, let's admit that the whole idea is wrong and go out of business. fOUNDERS HAD STUMBLING BLOCKS

c n

The founders and pioneer members of our college fraternities did not have easy sailing. Stumbling blocks of many kinds were thrown in their pathways. And over the years both state and private institutions have from time to time forbidden fraternities on the college campus. I recall one particular instance, where even though fraternities were not forbidden, the school authorities forbade those students who were fraternity members to participate in any extra-curricular activity, such as athletics, glee club, etc. However, this restriction was later withdrawn. In other colleges, sub-rosa chapters existed; but mark well that in none of these instances was there ever any challenge to the method of membership selection . For many years, there have been rules and regulations, and properly so, by college authorities, setting out scholarship requirements, particularly those with respect to rushing. But the present challenge is something new and of an entirely different order. This, too, will pass if it is met by a united front on the part of a great majority of the fraternities. "United we stand; divided we fall" could never be applied to a more appropriate situation than in the instant case. Every fraternity should join forces and serve notice to these "would-be do-gooders" to keep their hands off these private organizations.

PRESSURE

FROM

WITHOUT

I am aware that this issue has popped up from time to time over the years, but it never got anywhere until in recent years when there h as come a pressure from without seeking to pick up a few converts from within and have them bore within their individual fraternities. This new philosophy is not catching on in the way some of its proponents had hoped it would, but their form of ideology never gives up; rather, it continues and continues. I believe in progress; I like to call myself a progressive. But don't let us, in our desire to accept so-called, universal brotherhood, feel that it devolves upon us to dictate to all fraternal orders as to just what their principles and requirements of brotherhood are to be. Do tl1is today, and tomorrow you will be told whom you must take in. This effort is only tl1e beginning; continue to give ground, surrender the principles upon which your fraternities are founded, do away witl1 the cornerstone of the organization, the "ark of covenant," so

ptll liOVEMBER,

to speak, and all is lost. The very foundation of every fraternity is its freedom of choice in selecting its members. Destroy that landmark and you destroy all. REA•l FRATERNITIES MUST HAVE RIGHTS

Either we are going to have fraternities, or we are not.

If we do, tl1ey can exist only as real fraternities and be wortl1 anything where each organization has the Godgiven right to set its own qualifications for membership. Over the past years we have noted from time to time where in a few isolated instances some local chapter would pledge or sometimes initiate a person who did not meet the qualifications of the national organization; and, in turn, the local chapter would be penalized in some manner or have its charter withdrawn. You cannot, of course, have a national organization which is worth its name that does not maintain discipline and enforce its constitution and by-laws. Recently, a national fraternity, holding a convention, changed its membership requirements which led to the resignation of one of the founders of this fraternity. Webster defines a fraternity as "tl1e state or quality of being a brother or brothers; brotherliness; a group of men joined together by common interests, for fellowship, etc." "Baird's Manual of American College Fraternities" defines fraternity as a mutually-exclusive, self-perpetuating group which organizes tl1e social life of its members in accredited colleges and universities, as a contributing factor to their educational program; and draws its membership primarily from tl1e undergraduate body of the institution. If college fraternities are forced to change their membership qualifications, then the foregoing definitions would be only hollow shells. "CONTROL THIS SPREADING INFECTION!"

If college fraternities do not escape this attempt being forced upon them, which I conceive to be an unAmerican trend, then make no mistake about it; the effort will next extend to all fraternal organizations, and on to all private clubs, and then even to the churches. So, I say, hands off-hands off before it is too late to control this spreading infection! This challenge behooves all liberty-loving personswhether members of a college fraternity or not-to stop, look, and listen at some of the trends in our nation today. This is no time for fraternities to act under duress. Many founders of your individual orders were faced with problems and more difficult situations than this, and they certainly did not meet the issue by compromising. Today is not too late to overcome this threat; tomorrow may be!

Presently he is President of the Greenville Rotary Club and Medical Director of the South Carolina Blue Cross and Blue Shield plans. --------~ K¢---------

Nineteen Master Chapters THE YEAR 1959-60 has seen the largest number of Master Chapters ever assembled in the Master Chapter rating. They total 19. Tied for Champion Master Chapter were Alpha Upsilon at Drexel and Alpha Chapter at Charleston. Both of these chapters maintained a perfect 400 score for the entire 1959-60 year. It was a very close race, with Rho Chapter at Washington and Lee running second wi·th 399 points, Alpha Omicron at Iowa State third with 398 points, and Alpha Mu of Penn State fourth with 397 points. Admittedly, it is difficult to rate fraternity chapters in the physical sense. Fraternalism being intangible, it is difficult to place numerical value on chapters' performances. However, in an attempt to do so, the Master Chapter rating is based as follows: Obtaining membership goal . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 100 Obtaining scholarship goal (above allmen and all-fraternity average) . . . . . . . . . . 100 Submission and completion of Green Report. . 50 Three issues of Chapter publication . . . . . . . . Two Chapter Letters for The Star a1td Lamp . .

30 20

The above are tangible evidences of good chapter administration. The basic coverage includes internal chapter administration and also alumni rellLtions for overall coverage. Again admitting that we cannot grade fraternalism, the above system does establish a worthwhile goal toward which l!he undergraduate chapters may strive. In striving for these goals, it often follows that the intangible aspects of fraternal life also benefit. --------71'K¢--------

A New House for Alpha Phi at Illinois Tech THE THRILL OF THE PROSPECT of a new home came to brothers of Alpha Phi at Illinois Institute of Technology June 5 when ground was broken for the new building. Actual construction started October 1. Move-in date has been set as September 1, 1961. Many alumni and parents of undergraduates joined the undergraduates and pledges at the June ceremonies. Brother Richard Gregory was Master of Ceremonies, and Brother Ray Smith gave the invocation. Short speeches were made by Alumnus Herbert Hansen who turned the first shovel of earth, Alumnus Howe! Holloman, Archon Bennett Hudson, Dean of Students C. William Brown, and Prof. Frank Hrachovsky. After the formal ceremonies, the group returned to the chapter house for refreshments served by the Mothers' Club. The new house is being constructed at the southeast corner of 33rd Street and Wabash Avenue, Chicago. These spacious quarters will include a living room with a fireplace, a dining room that will seat 80, a first-floor apartment for a housemother, 24 two-man combined sleeping and study rooms, and four rooms without builtin furniture, these four to be used by town men and architects. The recreation room is in the basement, along with laundry facilities.

Invocation at Alpha Phi Ceremonies Text of the inspiring invocation which Brother Rav Smith gave at the Ground-Breaking ceremonies for Alpha Phi's new house at Illinois Institute of Technology follows: Our Father, remind us that unless we dedicate this new building to you, we build no better than the builders of the Tower of Babel. We thank you for the inspiration of the Pi Kappa Phi founders, the professors and advisers, and the dedicated brothers who have strengthened the Fraternity through the years.

Alpha Iota at Auburn Enlarges House ALPHA lOTA at Auburn proudly announces that plans for the new addition to its house are now weU formulated and construction will begin presently. The chapter regards this as quite an achievement, if not a milestone, as this is the only planned construction that has evolved since the present house was built some twenty years ago. The addition will provide room to sleep twenty-one brothers in addition to the thirty-eight who are now housed by the present lodging. With the chapter consistently increasing its membership, this is a much needed and welcome addition. These rooms wiii be located on the second floor which wiU also include two new baths. The housemother's suite will be completely reconstructed, providing her with an enlarged bedroom, living room, and a private bath. The present housemother's room will be converted into a suite for the chapter archon. The new chapter room and TV room are the main features located to the left of the foyer. The chapter room will also be used as a party room and lounge for the very energetic brotherhood. This wiii tend to convert the "ole party room," located on the third floor of the present house, into a lounge to be used for recreation such as ping pong, pool, and card games . NOVEMBER,

The outside of the house will be enveloped on two sides by a brick-walled terrace with a concrete floor which will be flanked by beautiful maple and pecan shade trees. As one approaches the front entrance of the house, he will observe a white marble relief of the crest that is suspended over the solar screen entrance. One enters through flush panel doors into the foyer that is set off by panel walls and a cork tile floor. To the right is the new dining room which will accommodate twenty-four additional guests, bringing the total meal accommodations to seventy-two. The enlarged kitchen which is located immediately to the rear of the dining room is equipped with new facilities and more modern cooking conveniences. The new addition wiU be furnished throughout with modern conveniences. Alpha Iota is very fortunate in having an architect for its faculty adviser. Professor Earl Layman, AlA, Head Professor of Interior Design at Auburn University, did the design in association with Alumnus Clyde Pearson, an architect from Montgomery, Ala. Brother Robert Anderson, Kappa, acted as the consultant. Brother Anderson is on the faculty of the Architectural Department of the university. 15

Announcing Employment Service

HOW MANY TIMES have you heard a Pi Kapp remark that he had obtained employ-

ment by way of contact with another member of Pi Kappa Phi? This is a common occurrence throughout the United States each day of the year. However, many times the fortunate situation develops only by chance. During the past 12 months, the suggestion has been offered that the National Fraternity attempt a definite program to facilitate a greater frequency of employment through Pi Kapp assistance. The requests for such a program have been from both undergraduates and alumni, indicating an interest in, and a need for, a program designed to assist both older alumni and the new graduate. A study of the many problems created by this idea developed several possible approaches. The approach to be entered into by Pi Kappa Phi seems to be the most applicable for our needs and abilities. Any su~gestions for the improvement of the employment co-ordinator program will be considered and appreciated. In various geographical locations, there are selected alumni who nave agreed to assist Pi Kapps in securing employment. It is not intended that these alumni are to give employment nor is it expected that they will, in all instances, be able to assist. Rather, it is to be their duty to co-ordinate the needs of their fellow Pi Kapps with those of the local community. These men are all substantial citizens of the community wherein they reside. They have knowledge of the various organizations and the men behind them in their area. Through this center of inHuence the coordinator will work. Here is what a Pi Kapp desiring employment in a particular area should do. Prepare a complete employment resume in at least five copies. Include personal history, employment background , educational experiences, military and marital status, why you are seeking employment and in what particular field. Send these resumes to the Employment Co-ordinator in the geographical area in which you are interested. The employment co-ordinator will then distribute this resume to those organizations and individuals who, he believes, can use your abilities. The contact will have then been made for the applicant. It is anticipated that from there on out the negotiations will be directly between employer and applicant. The following are employment co-ordinators for the general geographical areas under which they are listed: Georgia Brother Charles Workman, Jr., 435 Peachtree Battle Avenue, Atlanta, Ga.

Davidson's Successful Fraternity System "A MODEL FRATERNITY SYSTEM with the positive endorsement of the college administration"that is the way to describe Davidson College's unique fraternity system. In a time when national social fraternities have been placed on the defensive, it may be well to take a look at a system that is moving forward with confidence and enthusiasm- and has been doing so for over a hundred years. "We consider our fraternities a major asset and one which can serve as a model for other colleges like Davidson," volunteered President D. Grier Martin, whose SAE pin is now worn by one of his sons. Davidson College, founded in 1837 by Presbyterians, is a small (1,000 students) liberal arts college for men. After a hundred years of pioneering experience, the Davidson fraternity system has now evolved into what many consider to be a model system. What is so unique and "model" about Davidson's system? To answer this question, we talked to fraternity men at Davidson, faculty members, trustees, and the president. First, "over 85 per cent of the students belong to one of the twelve national social fraternities on campus," explained Stuart Nickles, president of Davidson's Epsilon Chapter of Pi Kappa Phi. Most of the remaining 15 per cent are independent by preference. The College Union offers these independent men every physical and social facility needed, and serves as a common meeting place for fraternity men and independents, both student and faculty. Second, there is the first-rate physical plant- the court itself and the way it operates. Built, owned, and maintained by the college, twelve fraternity houses are spaciously arranged around a fifteen acre court (there is more room available as the need arises for additional fraternities). All Students Live in College Dormitories

Students do not live in the fraternity houses . All students, fraternity as well as independent men, live together in the college's seven dormitories, not grouped by fraternities. In the fraternity houses, the members take their meals, entertain, watch TV, dance, relax, and have their chapter meetings. When completed in 1958, the total cost for the houses, roads, pipelines, landscaping, etc., came to one-half million dollars- an investment of over $40,000 per fraternity. The original spark to build the court came in the form of a $50,000 gift from Rev. W. S. Patterson, retired Presbyterian minister and highly enthusiastic member of Pi Kappa Alpha's Beta Chapter. The remaining $450,000 needed to build the court came from the college's permanent endowment. "Rather than invest this portion in stocks and bonds, we decided to put it into this desirable project," related the college's youthful business manager, R. A. Currie, whose fraternity is Kappa Sigma. Rent which the fraternities pay for the use of the court is determined by what the 18

$450,000 (no charge made on the Patterson gift) would have earned in dividends and interest had it been invested in stocks and bonds, plus, of course, charges for amortization and maintenance. In other words, the college gets the same net percentage return from its fraternity house investment as it does from its other investments (currently, the college's investments net between 41f2 and 5 per cent) .

}1 Tl Kr Pi PI:

Unique Rental Arrangement

The arrangement for paying the rent is itself unique. Each member pays a fraternity rental fee at the beginning of each semester. In 'this way, the rental charge is spread over the entire fraternity membership; thus small fraternities do not have a higher per member rental fee than the larger groups. Architecturally, each house is Classical Revival, built of brick with small white columns. Three different exterior designs and variations of the basic floor plan give each house a distinctive appearance. With over 3, 700 square feet of floor area, each house has a large living room, card room, basement chapter room, patio, bathroom, as well as a paneled dining room, stainless steel kitchen, and resident housemother's apartment. While the college owns and maintains the house and grounds, the individual fraternity is responsible for the interior decorations and furnishings. The resident housemother serves as both dietitian and hostess. Employed by the individual fraternity, she supervises the operation of the meals and serves as hostess. The fact that all students live in the dormitories, moreover, is considered to be one of the strongest points of Davidson's system. To find a man from one fraternity rooming with a man from another fraternity is quite common, and serves to point up the democracy of the system. "It means that a boy can have friends in every fraternity," says one strong fraternity man whose roommate is an independent. Third in the factors that make D avidson's system unique (and this one is basic to making all others meaningful) is the positive attitude of the trustees, the administration, the faculty, and the students themselves toward the fraternity system.

Faculty Initiated Fraternity Court Idea

For example, many visitors to Davidson are surprised l:o learn that the idea of a new and complete fraternity court was initiated by the Faculty Fraternity Committee, and not as a result of student or alumni pressure. By the Fall of 1958 the court was a reality. Among other signs that point to the effectiveness of the Davidson system are the scholastic competition among the fraternities, and the close voluntary ties with faculty members and many phases of the total educational program of the college.

JN THE FALL of 1922 three "st~ay ~reeks" of. Pi Kappa Phi transferred to the Umvers1ty of Flonda. They were Brothers R. P. Cureton of Chi Chapter, J. L. Knight, and L. H. Poe of Iota Chapter. These three Pi Kapps chose five fellow ~tudents as the nu~l~us o~ Phi Beta Psi, a local Fratermty founded to pet1t10n P1 Kappa Phi.

a man who collected the rent but made no repairs of any nature. To ready this plain, unattractive building for the great event consmned all of their money and much of their energy. Brother Leo H . Pou, Omicron '21, University of Alabama, was District President at that time and assisted in engineering the whole project. He was a truly great friend to all.

The fundamental work of chapter organization was soon completed. A large group of men were pledged, and with their numbers now increased, a temporary house was rented. Pins were then designed by Brother Knight and used by all brothers.

The initiating team came from Iota Chapter at Georgia Tech. Brother Kenneth C. Haughton, Iota '27, was in charge of the team. Prior to acceptance, an inspection team was sent down under the guidance of Brother Pou . They were ushered into the recently dolled up old house, but alas, the varnish on the floor had refused to dry. The local members were praying that the sticky varnish would not be the cause of their petition being denied. Try as they would, they could not induce the inspecting team to take the chairs that were especially placed on the carpet. Instead, the visitors headed straight for the wet, sticky floor, sat down in the chairs, and implanted their feet firmly in the varnish . The good humor and kindly understanding of the Pi Kapp inspection team soon overcame the mortification of the host group. It is well that they were so inclined, for Alpha Iota has developed into one of Pi Kappa Phi's finest chapters.

Several members, including Brother James M . Pearce, present Chapter Adviser of Alpha Epsilon, returned to the University in the Fall of 1923. Brother Tom Steel of Chi Chapter was the only Pi Kapp in residence, but with his co-operation and the helpful guidance of brothers throughout the state of Florida, the year's work was successfully undertaken. Phi Beta Psi's hope of becoming a chapter of Pi Kappa Phi was realized on February 23, 1924, when it was duly installed as Alpha Epsilon Chapter ; George Walke Coe was Phi Beta Psi Pin the first Archon. The second Archon was Brother Pearce, who has donated to the National Office his pin, pictured here, and supplied the above information. In 1916 a group of fraternal-minded young men joined together at Auburn, in Alabama, with the intent of affiliating with a national fraternity. An association was commenced that continued until 1920, · when the group at Auburn disassociated due to differences of opinion over Pledge Pin of Tau Kappa Phi membership requirements. Part of the group then as'' sumed the name Tau Kappa Phi, a local fraternity. It was quite a problem among the members of Tau Kappa Phi as to what .. bnation~~ fradtersnity should e petltwne . evera1 years were lost in false starts and Membership Pin of Tau Kappa lack of unity on this point, Phi but in 1925 opinions ral' lied around Pi Kappa Phi and plans went forward that resulted in the forming of Alpha Iota Chapter on October 2, 1926. Brother James T.- Russell was the first Archon.

At that time, they were living at 209 West Glenn Avenue in a large two story frame house, rented from NOVEMBER,

1960

We are indebted to Brother Robert D. Dean, Alpha Iota '2 6, of Birmingham, Ala. , for this account of the chapter's beginning and for donating his Tau Kappa Phi pledge pin and membership pin. Recently, while visiting Upsilon Chapter at the University of Illinois, your Executive Secretary had the good fortune of visiting with one of the truly great unsung heroes of Pi Kappa Phi. To list his contributions would be an article in itself, for Brother William J. Putnam, Upsilon '22, has truly deserved the Merit Citation awarded him by the 24th Supreme Chapter in 1952. In the November, 1959, issue of The Star and • lAmp, under this column, 1 there appeared the Brother pin of Gamma Sigma Pledge Button of Gamma Sigma Kappa, local fraternity Kappa which became Upsilon Chapter of Pi Kappa Phi. Brother Putnam has now contributed the pledge button that was used by this same local prior to their acceptance into our Fraternity. These pins will be added to the museum in the National Office. It is anticipated that other individuals will send in their old local pins for the museum. ---------~Kq

Davidson's Fraternity System (Continued from page 18)

Most professors like to point out that a strong scholarship rivalry exists among the fraternities. The chapter with the highest average receives a cup, awarded annually by the Interfraternity Council. Required study hall for pledges, and strong academic pressure from the brothers probably account for the fact that the fraternity average is higher than the overall average of the college. In the way of faculty-student relations, each chapter has an active adviser. The chapters, moreover, set aside one night each week to have various professors and their families for dinner. Such personal relationships may well explain why most Davidson faculty members are profraternity. In the realm of athletics, about 30 per cent of Davidson's students participate in the 10 varsity sports; a strong interfraternity athletic league offers plenty of sound recreation for those fraternity men not on the varsity teams. There are many other sidelights to Davidson's fratern-

ity system, but none is more thrilling than Rush Week. A major phase of every fraternity man's life, Rush Week is held during the first week of each new school year. A week of carefully regulated parties (three one-hour events per night) is climaxed by pledge day, when the freshmen walk to the house of their choice. The actual mechanics of the system-rules and regulations-are made and enforced by the twelve-man Interfraternity Council. While the rushing always gets highly competitive, "IIhere's always present an air of genuine respect for the other man's club," related the President of the IFC (who, by the way, is elected by the other Council members) . And so, whether it be full student participation, a fine physical plant, or good attitudes (probably a combination of all), Davidson College's fraternity system has hit the high plateau of effectiveness. What's more, it makes a sound educational contribution to life and learning at Davidson. After one hundred years of experimenting with many variations of the system, Davidson has hit on what many call "the most ideal" system yet developed for the small college campus in America.

ALUMNI BRIEFS Brother Burger Writes About the South

'11路

k r

tl e

A transplanted Southerner is writing of the South from his adopted northern home. He is Brother Nash K. Burger, Alpha Pi '29, University of the South. This Fall, the presses rolled to turn out Brother Burger's series of readers which include selections by southern writers for use as textbooks in Junior High schools. The Steck Company, Austin, Texas, is the publisher. "South of Appomattox," a book written by Brother Burger and John K. Bettersworth, has been given highly appreciative reviews in the New York Times, Book Review Digest, and elsewhere. Brother Burger's book-writing is in addition to his regular occupation as Copy Editor of The Tim es Book Review Department. In a warm and friendly vein, Mrs . Lynette Fung wrote a feature article about Brother Burger for the Freehold, N. ]., Transcript, his hometown weekly newspaper. "Mr. and Mrs. Burger and their three sons came to Freehold from Mississippi via New York City," Mrs. Fung explained. "The family elected to migrate to Freehold

for two good reasons. As Mr. Burger puts it (and the words come soft and southern), Freehold looks like Mississippi and is as far south of New York as it is possible to go and still commute." For three years Brother Burger was Editor of the Historical Records Survey, sponsored by the Mississippi Department of Archives and History, and articles of his were published in The Journal of Mississippi History. In 1940, he became the first Historiographer of the Episcopal Diocese of Mississippi. In 1945, the New York Times asked Mr. Burger if he would like to come up and work on the staff of the "Book Review." Now Copy Editor for this department, Brother Burger also edits for the daily Tim es and writes articles for it. '"South of Appomattox' takes ten Confederate leaders and, giving a chapter to each of these men, Robert E. Lee to Jefferson Davis, relates in interesting and scholarly accounts what happened to these men following the Civil War and the effect of their lives and attitudes on the South, and indicates the far-reaching influence they exerted nationally," Mrs. Fung stated.

Knowing that many of his friends would like to have information of him, we inquired. "I lead a singly uneventful life just now," Brother Havis said in writing from his home in Birmingham, Ala. "Following my retirement in March, I am taking the 'long rest' that generally accompanies that step and pleasurefully doing nothing."

Dr. Barnes, Upsilon '21, University of Illinois, is Verner Z. Reed Professor of Chemistry at the college. He and Mrs. Barnes are donors of a trust fund which pays the tuition of seven Colorado College students majoring in chemistry. Since the trust was created in 1952, it has supported nine men students and one woman. T1he seven present recipients had a grade point average last year of 3.3, high enough to make them candidates for Phi Beta Kappa honors. The "Who's Who" citation in the new edition declares that "the faith of a teacher in the profession of teaching is expressed in the gifts . . ." Dr. Barnes received all his college education at the University of Illinois, earning his Ph.D. in 1922 at the age of 28. From 1922 until 1925 he served as instructor at
