The Star and Lamp of Pi liappa Phi

NOVEMBER

In Retrospect

By FOUNDER L. HARRY MIXSON* DURING MY MANY YEARS of membership in Pi Kappa Phi, many bodiesNational, District, and Chapter-have invited me to their gatherings, and when I could I gladly accepted. All of them I find ended with my making a so-called address. This one is no different from the others, and the address is going to be about the same. A physician has a wealth of subjects from appendicitis to cancer; a preacher has a thousand or more possible sermons from the texts between Genesis and Revelation; a politician has many, many speeches on subjects all the way from taxation to civil rights, but a Founder of Pi Kappa Phi has but one subject -the founding and principles of our order.

If therefore some of you have heard one of these, I can't help it, because there arc certain things peculiar to Pi Kappa Phi and without which Pi Kappa Phi would not be Pi Kappa Phi. These things I must talk on if I am to do the job right. So, with this understood, I'll get on with my job tonight.

It is generally kno'vvn that Pi Kappa Phi was founded at the College of Charleston December 10, 1904. I have always felt that we as an organization owe much to that institution. Venerable, dignified, thorough, delighting in her traditions, unwavering in her requirements, this college has always been slow to act, and so we, in the early days of our Fraternity, considered every action carefully, debated every motion fully.

We therefore made few mistakes, and though by modern standards our progress may be considered slow, our foundations certainly were laid on solid ground. Certainly some of the stability of this old institution was transmitted to our orga nization, and in this day of transitory values, it serves us well.

It has now become a matter of custom for us as a national organization to go back every quarter century and hold our Supreme Chapter meetings there. In 1929 we met on that campus and presented to the College our Pi Kappa Phi Memorial Gate, and in 1954 we met there again and left our Pi Kappa Phi Memorial clock which occupies the gable in the main building, the gift of many Pi Kapps the world over, and in 1979 I hope you will meet there again to gain inspiration and strength from the stately old buildings and the sturdy live oaks, and to reaffirm our allegiance to Pi Kappa Phi and the principles for which she stands.

There has been a prevalent misconception regarding the founding of this Fraternity that I would like to get straight. Many seem to think that our Founders were possessed of occult powers whereby we could chart the course of a vast organization. On the contrary, we had no crystal ball into which we could gaze and foretell the future. We were young college students just like many of you here, and certainly we were not above average intelligence. Maybe after the two remaining Founders have passed into the Chapter House Beyond the Skies, and those who knew us on this earth have been bribed to secrecy, this story that we had some supernatural vision may gain credence, but certainly not as long as we linger here and are constant reminders of human frailties and errors of judgment.

The success of Pi Kappa Phi can be attributed to two things. From the beginning, we had the right p1inciples. But in that regard we were no different from other organizations which start bravely but fail. So there must be a reason why we did not fail. After the influence of the founding group was no more and the mantle of authority had passed from our shoulders, there were other men, ready, able, willing, and on whose shoulders this mantle fitted, and there came a never ending stream of men, devoted, zealous, able, fervent. Yes, in 1904 we sparked the idea, but it is to those men who came after us and are continuing to come in a steady unbroken stream that we owe our wonderful Pi Kappa Phi. I have had men ask me: "Of what value to me is Pi Kappa Phi?" Pi Kappa Phi can be of untold value to every man in this room, and that value can be oreat or small as he chooses to make it. If one looks for the Fraternity to supply ÂŁ1ancial or material gains, his expectation will be a vain one. If he looks for social contacts "'Address given by Founder L. Harry Mixson, Charleston, S. C., at Pi Kapp College, Sumter,

S. C., August 31. ~I

a~d resulting benefits, Pi Kappa Phi will help him to some degree, but the benefits Will not be la~ting unless he is worthy of them. But if one looks for friendships ~hat are endurmg, thoughts that are inspiring, deeds that are noble, Pi Kappa Phi IS th.e pl.ace to fin.d them. Pi Kappa Phi will give you something far above riches.

It will give you fnendships that are priceless and experiences that are heartwarmino.

The essence of Pi Kappa Phi is friendship, and I want to read to you these word~:

"Oh the comfort, the inexpressable comfort of feeling safe with a person, havi~g neither to weigh thoughts nor measure words, but to pour them all out, JUSt as they are, chaff and grain together, knowing that a faithful hand will sift them, keep what is worth keeping and then, with the breath of kindness, blow the rest away."

I like to think of Pi Kappa Phi symbolically as an arch, the ends of which rest on two pillars. In the center is the keystone, the stone without which the arch would fall. The keystone is composed of the principles of our order, the words you learned when you were brought into the full effulgence of fraternal light.

I assure you that Pi Kappa Phi was founded on democratic principles. In an undergraduate chapter, each man's vote counted as much as the other man's. At Supreme Chapter meetings, discussions were free and open, and the vote of each chapter was on the same basis. As I understand it, the great majority of the voting strength now rests with the undergraduate chapters. Old fogies like myself have one vote and therefore have little to say in the Fraternity's management. Whether or not this is entirely wise I shall not say, but I do know that there is very little opportunity for that tremendous mass of 20,000 men now out of college in the professions or in business to express their wishes, and what is more important, exert their leadership. These are the men who carried on tl1e work in the heat and burden of the day. The solution of that problem I leave with you younger men.

There is no question of the strength of our national organization. Yes, it is stable and vigorous. We have withstood two world wars and several depressions. The Fraternity is old enough to be mature yet young enough to retain her vitality and her agility. Her endowments are steadily growing and should be a source of pride to our National Council of the present and those of the past. Yet certainly our worth should not be measured entirely by financial statements, as needful as money is for stability. James Russell Lowell spoke important words on the occasion of the 25th anniversary of Harvard College: "I am saddened when I see our success as a nation measured by the number of acres under tillage, or bushels of wheat exported, for the real value of a country must be weighed in scales more delicate than the balance of trade. The measure of a nation's true success is the amount it has contributed to the thought, the moral energy, the intellectual happiness, the spiritual hope, and tl1e consolation of mankind." What is true of nations is equally true of college fraternities. There are certain things more important than money, and I hope that our future national bodies will keep this in mind.

Pi Kappa Phi has always been, since her founding, a Christian organization. Yet there was nothing narrow about our Christianity. Of the two remaining Founders, one is a Roman Catholic and one a Scotch Presbyterian.

At the present time, all is not well in the Greek Letter Fraternity world. In the early days of this century, about the time when Pi Kappa Phi was born, college fraternities were not in good repute, and we had a hard time convincing boards of trustees, faculties and legislatures that we could be an influence for good on their campuses, and, given the chance, we proved our worth and gained respectability.

Now we are about to lose all that we have gained.

About ten years ago certain persons attacked the American College Fraternity system by havino the faculties of certain schools scare certain fraternities into deleting the selectivity ~lause from their constitutions. I do not know the requirements of other fraternities, but I do know that Pi Kappa Phi was founded and prospered under the banner of Jesus Christ and the Caucasian Race.

I know as well as you that certain subterfuges are bein9 used. Co~pro~ses. are being made, all of which I think are wrong because you cant ~omprom1se a pnnciple.

I have given you the past as I know it. The future I leave w1th you.

The Chapter Adviser is a man del~ cated to youth. Much of the success ill every chapter can be attributed to ~ Chapter Adviser whose wise co"\ 1 furnishes necessary leadership ond spiration.

JEWEL BEYOND COMPARE." Do we have such in Pi Kappa Phi? We certainly do. There are at least fifty of them who are currently being used to the utmost. There have been untold hundreds of them in the rast who have fulfilled a call from their Fraternity. 0 whom am I speaking? I am speaking of that incomparable person, the man on whose shoulder I leaned as an undergraduate, the man whom I scorned behind his back when I was an undergraduate, the man whose advice I took as an undergraduate, that man whose advice I questioned as an undergraduate, but yet a man I always respected as an undergraduate. Now that I am an alumnus, and I have matured, and I am now a man, I look back at this person, this "jewel beyond compare," my CHAPTER ADVISER. Now when I use the personal pronoun "me," I am not only thinking of my CHAPTER ADVISER but, as an alumnus, I am thinking also of your CHAPTER ADVISER . These men are dedicated men. They do much, they have done much, and they will do much.

They are the ones who devote so much of their time unselfishly to the development of young manhood. They are the men who sacrifice time from their fam ili es and time from some of their personal pleasures to work with young men in guiding them aright and helping them over the rough spots.

The CHAPTER ADVISER is a much forgotten man, and yet, he is probably the backbone, the life, and the strength of our undergraduate Fraternity system. \Vithout hi constant presence, the wholesomeness of his environment, the sageness of his advice, many of our undergraduate chapters in this our Fraternity would not have survived, or would not have prospered. These men from Oregon to New York, Michigan to Florida, these men and others like them in the past and many 2

001

men to come have devoted themselves to this Fraternity. You ask yourself why do they do this? 'l'h~; do it because of a love for their Fraternity and a Jo~, for the development of young men, and a desire ' rerve. ~ There are many of us who could and should asst these men. We should offer our services to these J11efl' this How many of you men, as alumn i, as you read i article, have reflected back to your undergraduate d~~ and have said, ''I wish I had taken his advice?" IvfatR you should help the present CHAPTER ADVIS 1 Maybe the CHAPTER ADVISER today is the saJllce I person who helped you, but he could use the assistafl of a younger man to help him. rt And those of you who are reading this wh_o ali undergraduates, I realize it is probably most dtBi'& for you, of all , to realize that the CHAPTER ADVIS e is a man who is dedicated to you and to your fu~~ is a man whose advice and counsel should be ta. 1 and weighed and given considerable thought. He 15 d man who can help you, who wants to help you, afl will help you. Give him the assistance he deserves. Gt' him the understanding that you are capable of, for thef) men who are working in our undergrad uate chapt~ today, their predecessors and their successors, Pi Kappa Phi.

The brothers here at Florida enjoyed the article about our projected new house. Of course, we are proud of it, but we feel that it will be nothing unless we bring to it that certain intangible quality that is true brotherhood, that quality of fraternalism that is embodied in the Ritual of Pi Kappa Phi. We feel that this spirit of fraternity will breathe life into this unique- design and make it an integral part of the dynamic institution that is now molding our lives. and with our help will mold the lives of the generations of students that come after us.

KAPP COLLEGE-1961! Location must be decided upon soon-let's again use a camp-type school! . . Budget must be determined immediatelyJohn, I believe $37.50 per person in attendance will have to be the absolute minimum! . . Cooking for this number of people will be a real problem-why not have Mrs. Langston from Florence, S. C., cater the entire camp, since she did such a terrific job in 1959! . . The camps lack 20 beds-well, the Civil Defense people are the only ones in Sumter County whom we have not contacted, maybe they can help us! . . Thank goodness, Saturday, August 26-they will finally register tomorrow . . . For crying out loud, it's starting to rain !

Although abbreviated, this was how it went for 12 months prior to August 27, the first day of Pi Kapp College, 1961!

After registration, the festivities commenced with a session featuring the presentation of the Theron Houser A ward for chapter achievement and an address

by Brother Mel Metcalfe, new National Historian.

The Houser Award was most deservedly won by

Kappa Chapter at the University of North Carolina. ;.s of January, 1960, Kappa was last on campus in scholad ship, had only five brothers and two pledges, existe under an extremely large indebtedness, coupled with an extremely large accounts receivable, had published .0d chapter publication for two years, and had supplie no chapter letter for The Star and Lamp for two year~ , and as a result of inefficient operation was look upon with disfavor by the school, the IFC, the cor!l路 munity, alumni, etc.

As of the Spring of 1961, Kappa had risen fro~ a rank of 48 in the Master Chapter rating to the p0 51拢 tion of 13. They now had a total membership 0 ' 32 returning for the Fall of '61, were ninth on cai11P1~ in scholarship, had greatly reduced their debt, ha]l absolutely no accounts receivable, had published a. the required chapter publications and submitted chaP I ter letters as required, were respected by all, and aboVf all, exhibited an outstanding fraternal spirit. Much 0 . the credit for this improvement must go to the aluJlln~ in Chapel Hill; however, it cannot be taken a~aj from the undergraduates who did an outstanding Job路

tiot~ highlight of the opening session was unquesMna ly the fine speech presented by Brother Mel lll.etcalfe, National Historian. Brother Metcalfe reo tnded all present of the need for spiritual values in i Ur chapters' operations and of the fact that we have 0 U: Ritual the necessities to supply this need, in8 traho?al words that certainly gave the following days rneanmgful start. t .After a ful l day of classes, the students were treated So a Hospitality Social by the Pi Kappa Phi alumni of \\TUillter, S. C., Monday evening. Food, beverages, music la~~e furnished; but most important were the 135 young a tes who assisted in making this affair remembered s an outstanding event by all attending.

Two full days of classes, covering all phases of

Fraternity operation, followed. Considered outstanding during these class periods were addresses by our National President, Brother J. AL Head, and Past National President, Brother W. Bernard Jones, Jr. Brother Head presented a most heartwarming talk on an exceedingly difficult subject-"Brotherhood." His use of extemporaneous remarks made this much more meaningful. Brother Jones delivered two outstanding talks, on "Fi nances" and "Rushing," both of which were outstandingly received.

The final evening, Wednesday, August 30, was highlighted by the appearance of one of our Founders, Brother L. Harry Mixson. His address is re-printed in full on the first pages of this issue of the magazine and needs no elaboration.

The Aloia of Alpha Iota, Auburn, wins the President's Plaque for the best chapter publication of the 1960-61 college year.

Memorable among the events of this final evening were the awarding of the President's Plaque and the National Champion Master Chapter awards.

For the second consecutive year, Alpha Iota Chapter at Auburn won the President's Plaque for the most outstanding chapter publication. Their publ,ication, The Alota, won in face of stiff competition from Alpha Omicron, Iowa State University, and Alpha Epsilon, University of Florida, second and third, respectively.

Honorable mention was given Beta Rho, Clarkson College; Mu, Duke University; Alpha Phi, Illinois Institute of Technology, and Tau, North Carolina State College. The judges noted vast improvement of the publications prepared by Kappa, University of North Carolina, and Lambda, University of Georgia.

Three chapters made a perfect 400 in the Master Chapter competition and thus earned the title, "National Champion Master Chapter." They are Mu, Duke University; Alpha Xi, Polytechnic Institute of Brooklyn, and Alpha Upsilon, Drexel Institute of Technology.

Altogether, there were 14 Master Chapters th!S past year. They are the chapters at Duke, Polytech 111c Institute of Brooklyn, Drexel Institute of TechnologY• 1 Clarkson College, College of Charleston, Washington and Lee University, Illinois Institute of TechnologY• > North Carolina State College, University of Toledo, Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, Iowa State Co!leg~· Roanoke College, Central Michigan College, and Vnt· versity of North Carolina. .

It is now too early to evaluate fully the second Pt Kapp College. However, the initial response has be~o most gratifying. Enthusiasm and interest of those 1 ~ attendance was outstanding.

Misrepresentation of One Million Students by NSA! )II

"Whether we are right or not is irrelevant, we must speak!" a top NSA officer explains!

Our government has severed diplomatic relations with Cuba, but American youth remains on record wishing to help Cubans in their university reform movement.

The United States National Student Association (known as NSA) passed a resolution in August saying, ". . . the extent and direction of the recent university reform can not yet be ascertained . . . . " Nevertheless, it concluded that American students should aid the movement. This resolution has been sent around the world, presumably speaking for American student opinion, but NSA does not reflect the thoughts and sentiments of the American student!

What Is NSA? What is NSA? The association claims 1,300,000 student members, or the total enrollment of the 350 member colleges and universities. In the name of American students, NSA for 13 years has spoken before United States Congressional committees and acted as a political pressure group in Washington, where it maintains a permanent staff.

NSA also votes for America's youth at international student meetings. A president of a foreign student union has said that in his country NSA is assumed to be voicing the opinions of American students. Now, living in this country, this foreign student realizes NSA speaks only for the opinions of the few individuals "who run NSA ."

NSA, contrary to its preamble (which states, "We, the students of the United States of America . . . ") and the impression it attempts to achieve, does not insure nor even encourage true representation. NSA says it can speak for American students because memher schools send delegates to the annual "congress," a summer convention during which resolutions are passed. What NSA fails to recognize is the fact that these delegates are rarely elected by member schools.

They are not selected on the basis of knowledge of the subjects to be discussed, nor knowledge of how the students they represent feel on the subjects.

Topics covered at the congress are not geared to current issues on member campuses, but to areas where

NSA officers feel the campuses should be concerned· In other words, a few officers try to create interests for students with whose interests they are generally unfamiliar. No organization can reflect a non-existent sentiment. Under such conditions delegates can neither reflect nor represent student opinion.

In 14 hours, one of the five committees at the 196° congress passed 44 resolutions. This allows an avera~e of about 20 minutes for debating each resolution 111 a committee of more than 200 delegates!

The subjects that this committee attempted to de· bate and the problems they tried to resolve are not conducive to such cursory treatment. Here are a fe~ examples, titles of resolutions passed by this committ.ee· Cuba, Nuclear Testing, Africa, Latin American Polley, South Korea-Turkey, Japan, India, Ethiopia, HungarY• Totalitarianism, Eastern European Exchange, and W'orld Youth Forum.

During the summer, NSA sponsors an 8-week sefll· inar for 15 students, hand-picked by the National Executive Committee of NSA, to study a few of these areas. This is recognition of the complexities involved in these problems and the need for careful considera· tion of them. Yet, Congress delegates are expected to pass resolutions in these areas and more in a few houfS· Facts? Or Distortions?

"Background papers" are distributed to aid deleg~tes who are not "totally familiar" with all the issues beJ01 discussed. The papers are usually written by nationj 1 staff and executive committee members. Often, they te only one side of a crucial, highly debatable issue. 'f)le "background papers" are frequently quoted in the sec· tion of resolutions labeled as "fact." What .finally appears in this section of each resolution is often. an opinionated distortion stated with pretentious certallltY. For example, a resolution claiming to give ··the facts" on the controversial and hotly debated Bous~ Un-American Activities Committee states simply tha the Committee "violates personal rights and endangers free expression." ~I

Students Warned They Must Revolt!

g ~dealism reaches a peak at NSA congresses as deleth es are told of the "common bond among students v ~ougho_ut the world" and are warned they must reo0 t hga.mst traditional and outmoded practices, both n t e national and international levels. sit~t the 1960 congress, NSA sponsored a panel on the ti .1n mo~ement. The "panel" consisted of Negro parac~a~ts 10 the movement, their defending lawyer, and le d htte girl who volunteered as a secretary for the ~s of the movement. To add to the emotional pitch sit .t e meeting, delegates were led in songs of the so ·Jfu movement. That some of the delegates from suu ~~n schools walked out of the meeting was not rprtsing v·lhe m~derator, an NSA officer, was the same india1 Ual w?o was largely responsible for NSA taking wh~~nd tn favor of supporting the sit-ins-a stand w· 1 was taken without a vote of member schools, thithout consultation with them, and without notifying in e~ ?f the decision before involved schools read it e1r community newspapers.

It becomes a glaring fact when at ~h realized that <;>nly 13 of 97 resolutions discussed Th e 1960 congress were voted upon by the deleg~tes! }!)( e r~st were decisions of the NEC, the NatiOnal an~cutn~e Committee, which consists of regional officers T ~at:1onal officers. stituh_Is group, with 34 voting members, has the conth ttonal power to decide stands and programs for sue l,3oo,ooo members. It meets immediately after the th;~er congress and passes resolutions which are on ve oaks for a year before they can be altered or reN~Sed by member schools. Almost two-thirds of all th A. resolutions, and all of the NSA programs, are bu~ prod~ct, not of thinking on 350 college campuses, of discussion around the NEC table.

Th:

Non-Violent Protests in Japan Upheld u ~n S~ptember, 1960, the NEC passed a resolution oldmg the Japanese riots which kept a United ates President from visiting the country. The con-

st p~ l

~ov

sequences of the rioting, and the suspicion that it was led by Japanese Communists was not mentioned in the "fact" section of this resolution. It was called a "student demonstration" and the NEC put NSA on record as upholding the right of these students "to nonviolently protest actions which they consider unjust or undemocratic."

It was mid-December, four months after the passage of this resolution, that member schools were notified of the decision. Even then, it was merely included in a codification of 140 other resolut:ions. With one copy of this codification being sent to each member school, the chances that this resolution, or any other, would be noticed and discussed are small. If member schools should object to an NEC resolution, or suggest modifications, their criticisms are neither recorded nor published.

Even members of the NEC were unclear as to what they passed concerning Japan. Of three contacted during the four months, one denied it was passed, one said he didn't know if it had been, and the other said a resolution to that effect was passed, but he couldn't recall specifics of it. Even as the NEC was unsure of its deoision, and members uninformed, copies of resolutions were sent around the world .

A resolution of the NEC is supposed to be retained only if affirmed by the congress the following year. This has been easily sidestepped. Resolutions go to the congress and, because the NEC doesn't put them high enough on the priority list (which determines the order in which they will be discussed), time doesn't allow their passage by the congress and they are again sent to the NEC, and again l?assed as NSA opinion.

By this method a resolut.Jon to abolish compulsory membership lists for all student organizations has existed for four years without ever being voted upon by member schools. This does not stop NSA officials from pressuring for the goals of such resolutions. Mandates may be involved, which will be carried out just as mandates from the congress. United States Congressmen will be told that this is what the youth of the nation desires.

A Representative Organ for American Students?

Through its regional structure, NSA claims the NEC is representative. However, the regional votes are not proportional. For instance, the Utah region has five member schools and one vote on the NEC; the New England region has 51 member schools and only 2 votes on the NEC. NEC members rarely discuss the issues they vote on with representatives from schools in their region. A school is unable, through the association, to find out how its representative votes at the NEC sessions.

Inserted in the 1960 congress program, NSA gave a history of NSA which concluded with this remark, "Accurately reflecting the feelings of students on member campuses, USNSA's structure provides a representative organ for American students, despite the pluralistic heterogeneity of the nation's system of higher education."

How can NSA substantiate this claim? Many of us who belong to NSA are just beginning to learn the hypocrisy of the statement.

NSA does not represent those in its membership, its structure precludes the possibility. Many who belong 9

to NSA are unaware that they do. Schools join and leave NSA according to the whims-or fears-of individuals in campus student governments. Few students know or care anything about NSA. It doesn't harm them, they think. It helps them once in a while with pamphlets to refer to on campus problems.

The greatest apathy of all is being demonstrated by the more than one million students who are allowing NSA to speak for them in this unrepresentative manner. In the past, many of those who have opposed NSA, or wished to reform it, have found its leadership had too much of a stronghold to be broken with the

small effort they were willing to put forth. To correct what is a serious situation within NSA, will take a knowledge and devotion equal to that of the NSA l~d· ers. Those students who are concerned about the Jfll· plications of NSA, who desire a democratic form .% representation, and who believe llhat speaking WJ knowledge is more important than emotional rantings. , do not have the advantage of full time salaried lead_er· ship, as does NSA. But there are more than a milh 00 students being misrepresented; it would only be through continued apathy that they would not be able to make the truth, which is on their side, heard.

In name and constitution, the USNSA dates August of 1947 as its founding, at the University of Wisconsin. However, while the University buildings were used, it was not sponsored by the university nor recognized as a campus activity. During the first several years of its existence there was much consideration of future participation with the International Union of Students. The open adherence of this organization to the International Communist movement made open

association with them untenable, and in 1959 participa· tion was ruled out. In its place the International Stu· dents Conference was formed in cooperation with other 1 1' Western countries. t Since 1949, the United States National Stude!l Association has disavowed any connection with the International Union of Students and the World fed· eration of Democratic Youth. They have also been 1 critical of past World Youth Festivals, however, the United States National Student Association has be~ I r~ a most active in its contacts with the Committee of You d Organizations of the Soviet Union, the ZSP of Polan and also with the Yugoslavian Union of Students, as well as numerous youth organizations of the Western nations.

In 1959 the United States National Student Asso· ciation at its annual Congress expressed strongly_ jts contention that travel restrictions placed on Amertcan students in such areas as Hungary, China, North I(orea, Viet Nam should be lifted. It also called upon the governments of the United States and of the vsSR to open to student travel those areas now restricted.

Songs Give Clue

Overt relationships to other movements outside of the aforementioned are unknown, however, indirect r~; lationships can be observed. Of particular interest .1• the official United States National Student AssocJa tion Congress songbook. Until recently the official Rus; sian National Anthem was included. A more recell copy included such as: "Union Maid," "Let Me 0 d You Comrade," "Avanti Populo," (The Star Spangle Banner of the International Student Union). Al 50 0 numerous activities during the years 1959 and 19~ with the Castro Regime in Cuba and the student you groups of Cuba have been observed. a It is also interesting to note that an observer at . recent United States National Student Association con gress reported that neither an invocation nor a bene· ~I

Historical Relationships Of United States National Student Association (Past and Present) "In November, 1958, M. Stanton Evans, in an article entitled 'NSA-Where Is It Leading American Students?' published in The Individualist, says 'NSA has maneuvered itself into a position of speaking for college age America, particularly abroad. . . . It is the very aggregate of a "million students" that lends weight to NSA pronouncements. If it is attempting to alter the opinion of students at its member schools, it cannot fairly claim to represent their opinion. It cannot simultaneously speak to and for that impressive one million. . . The organization seems to look upon a college education as a sort of sociological laboratory in which one masters the arts of committeemanship, manipulation of groups, and general politicking. It views the campus as a breeding ground for bureaucrats and organization men rather than as a place where intelligence is disciplined by deep and rigorous study...

The implications of NSA's grandiose plans are disturbing enough in view of the groups' left wing inclinations and of the dubious philosophy of 'student governmentism.' " The United States National Student Association traces its beginning to the World Student Congress held in Prague in 1946. Twenty-five young Americans attended this meeting and were " impressed by the reputations, programs, and traditions of the student unions of other countries." They returned determined to establish a Student Union in the United States.

The above observations must be tempered by the knowledge that there are some objectives of the NSA that have merit. The observations listed, however, are "part and parcel" of the organization as it has existed and as it does now exist. What then can be a worthwhile result of this article, the re-print of Miss Wonderli e's remarks, and the additional notes?

The NSA claims to represent "we, the students of the United States of America." Can it be believed that a majovity of the conscientious, clear-thinking, and logical-minded American students gives their support to any organization that includes ALL of the above listed items in its objectives? It is questionable that very many know anything at all about the NSA. In any evaluation of the NSA, these facts must be considered. Alumni and undergraduates, alike, should be informed of all the facts possible. So far in the history of the NSA, this side of the picture has not been given to the general public.

JN THE DEATH of Dr. Henry Patrick Wagener, Alpha '06, College of Charleston, on April 27 of this year in Rochester, Minn., the Fraternity lost one of its greatly distinguished members and a cherished founding spirit. He was 70 years of age and those years were full and resultful in a way which led to his listing in "Who's Who in America." The cause of death was heart failure.

The annals of the Fraternity will always have for Henry Wagener an especially glowing page, which was earned by a performance of unusual dedication and of recognized merit.

He was the first Editor of the magazine of Pi Kappa Phi Fraternity. This position demanded of him many attributes and not the least were those of courage and tenacity. The unknown, the untried, the unplanned, the unfinanced were his problems to be met, and foundations of enduring quality had to be established in spite of them.

His record is permanently set in the first issues of the magazine, published under his direction and editorial handling. They were highly creditable in content and editing. Today's magazine is a monument to his devoted determination. The Fraternity itself is also a monument, insofar as the magazine then and in later years contributed to its growth and influence.

One of Brother Wagener's editorials in the first issue of The Pi Kappa Phi Journal, which was the early name of the magazine, was reprinted in many fraternity journals of the day and in Bantds Greek Exchange. It was Henry Wagener who proposed that the Fraternity issue a magazine and also suggested its first title. He thus became its Founder as well as first Editor.

This action to establish the magazine took place in the convention of July, 1909. The Fraternity had four chapters, two of which were existing without college recognition or approval. There were 70 members on the national roll. In the face of these conclitions, the action can well be described as one of courage and of blithe confidence.

The first issue under Brother Wagener's direction appeared in October, 1909. It provided a coverage of Fraternity news and information which has furnished a guide for succeeding Editors of the magazine down through the years.

He wrote at that time eclitorially: "A fraternity magazine is something apart from all other publications. It contains

12

neither fiction, nor science, nor religion. It is intended primarily neither to amuse, to educate, nor to edify. It is intended first and foremost to be a bond of friendship. With chapters scattered from ocean to ocean, with individuals dotting the whole country, with the two extremities seldom, if ever, coming into contact and relationship, what is there to bind together the members of a big fraternity? Of course there is the sense that we all profess the same vows and are under the guidance of the same principles; but this is something intangible and not apt to be always powerful and binding. What interest can I feel in a man of whom I know only the name? With some intimate knowledge of his character and doings, I have some foundation for friendship. To furnish such foundation must be the object of a fraternity journal. In chapters as a whole, in their continuance and success, an unconnected fraternity man may be interested. But for

their individual members he can care nothing Without a more intimate personal acquaintance. How can he establish this friendship with a man a thousand miles away? Primarily through the agency of his journal.

Our Journal is to be the chain of acquaintance, not only from chapter to chapter but from man to man. Naturally we want chapter records; but more than all we want records of men, personal details which mean so much for friendship. We wish this Jottmal to be the bond which shall bind together the hearts of all Pi Kappa Phi men, active college men and alumni; from the greenest freshman to ~e sagest justice in our pack. Greater inh~~cy, more true interchapter fraternity spmt is to be our goal."

The name of the magazine was changed to ~he Star a11d Lamp at the convention in 1911. roth~r Wagener continued as editor under the new tJtle for a brief time but retired from his Triting because of the press of his medical studies. f he change in title did not bring change in the ?rmat and the news policy which he had estab1tshed in the earlier issues of the Jotlmal.

1-Ienry P. Wagener is a brother of Dr. A. Pelzer Wagener, a Past National President of the Fraternity and a member of that original group of seven who chartered Pi Kappa Phi and launched it on a national career. Henry was the first initiate of the original group under the formal ritual of Pi Kappa Phi Fraternity and holds the membership number, Alpha 10.

At his request, he was returned to Charleston, S. C., for burial in a family plot and from the old family church. It was the final homecoming for him, and it was to be expected that there Were men from that early membership of the Fraternity at the final rites. Among the pallbearers Were listed Founder Simon Fogarty and Harold ~-Mouzon, Alpha '11; with Founder L. Harry txson shown as an honorary pallbearer.

1-Ienry Wagener received high and widespread recognition in his chosen field of medicine. For 4 1 years he was professor of Ophthalmolog~ !or the M:ayo Foundation and also practtcmg Ophthalmologist for the Mayo Clinic. In ~is ~eld he was widely active in lecturing and wnttng for professional journals.

Following graduation from the College of Charleston, he obtained his medical degree from the Medical College of South Caroli~a, ll?d a M~ster of Science Degree from the Untverstty of Mtnnesota. He was a member of the American Medical Association the American Academy of ?Phthalmology and' Otolaryngology, t~e Amer~an Ophthalmological Society, and. ~tgma X~.

New National Historian NATIONAL HISTOrian Louis P. Jervey, Jr., Mu '53, Duke, who lives in Roanoke, Va., resigned from his place on the National Council, effective with the Council meeting in Sumter, S. C., following Pi Kapp College.

Brother Jervey, who went on the Council three years ago, relinquished his post because of the pressure of business and Brother Louis P. Jervey, Jr. family responsibilities. His letter of resignation included the following: "My Fraternity means a great deal to me, and I honestly believe that within the framework of a proper fraternity system, emphasizing the spiritual values of brotherhood, the responsibilities of the individual and the privilege of choosing one's associates, lies the greatest opportunity of reaching one most important unclaimed source for the American way of life. The pleasure has been all mine, for the company I've had is the finest, and no young man could have had the benefit of varied, sincere, and provocative throught on such a high level of character."

Brother Jervey will be succeeded by District VII President, Brother Mel Metcalfe, Alpha Gamma '25, University of Oklahoma. Brother Metcalfe resides in Port Arthur, Texas, where he has his own general insurance agency, representing the United States Fidelity and Guaranty Company.

Brother Metcalfe had been active in Fraternity work for a number of Brother Mel Metcalfe years prior to his becoming District President two years ago.

After graduation in 1927 from the University of Oklahoma, where he studied Journalism, he worked on a newspaper for 18 years. He entered the insurance field in 1946. A Kiwanian for 27 years, Brother Metcalfe served as President of the Port Arthur Club in 1942 and as a Lieutenant-Governor of Texas-Oklahoma District in 1947.

He is a member of Westminster Presbyterian Church.

Brother Metcalfe has practiced his hobby of magic since he was 13 and still entertains clubs and other gatherings.

Mrs. Metcalfe and their daughter are both members of Kappa Alpha Theta Sorority.

TO THE AVERAGE OBSERVER, the undergraduates are the Fraternity. This is true to some extent because our chapters are composed of undergraduates and most of our members are not directly connected with the Fraternity after they leave school.

It is also true that we rely upon the undergraduates for the continuation and perpetuation of the Fraternity, for if they do not constantly renew the membership of the chapters, the Fraternity will die. However, behind the scenes and often virtually unnoticed are men who are responsible for the welfare of the undergraduate chapters and for seeing that they achieve a high degree of success. These men are the Chapter Advisers.

They provide the continuing link for the Fraternity.

Undergraduates come and go, but the Chapter Advisers provide a constant source of knowl ed~e and adv!ce o.n Fraternity affairs and chapter operatwns. The JOb ts a time consuming one that requires outstanding ability, and our Advisers often do their fob so well that few people realize they may be largely respons ible for a successful chapter. This is because they are capable of guiding young men without having to do the .work for them, thus providing a true fraternal expenence for the undergraduate.

Presented here is a brief resume of several of our Advisers so that the Fraternity may be aware of their presence' and the good that they have accomplished.

Brother Brooke R. Johnson Brother Brooke R. Johnson, Eta '52, Emory University, has served as Chapter Adviser to Lambda at the University of Georgia since 1959. He was a counselor in the University Guidance Center and is now Associate Professor of Psychology at CarsonNewman College in Jefferson City, Tenn.

In addition to being an active member of Eta Chapter at Emory, he was a member of the Emory band. He is a member of Phi Kappa Phi, Sigma Xi, Brother Brooke R. Johnson Psi Chi, and Kappa Delta Pi. He is also a member of the Georgia Psychological Associ.ati.on and ~he Am.erican Personnel and Guidance Assooatwn. He IS marned

Brother Clifton D. Mitchell Brother Clifton D. Mitchell, Rho '57, Washington and Lee University, was Associate Chapter Adviser for Lambda this past year. An Ensign in the U.S. NavYd he attended Naval Supply School at Athens, G:.t., an , l is now supply officer aboard the U.S.S. Barton, present)1 in the Mediterranean area.

Brother Mitchell served as Treasurer of Rho fo~ I two years and as Archon for one term. He graduate from Washington and Lee with honors and was a member of several honorary fraternities. An expert on finances, he was a big help in maintaining Rho as an outstanding chapter and in helping Lambda to end tbetr financial difficulties.

Brothers Johnson and Mitchell were both extrem.eiY important in the great success of Lambda Chapter dur~ng the past year, and both will be missed in corJJlng months.

Brother Oscar L. Koch

Brother Oscar L. Koch, Nu '21, University of Nebraska, is Controller of the Nebraska Salesbook Company and Assistant Secretary of Comptometer Corporation. His reliability is shown by the fact that he has a record of perfect attendance for 13 years at the Lincoln, Nebraska, Kiwanis Club. Besides serving as Director of Kiwanis, he is a member of the American Legion and the Lincoln University Club and is a Vestryman in the Episcopal Church.

While in college he served as Treasurer of Nu and was a member of Alpha Kappa Psi. Always interested in finances, his presence has made Nu a chapter that is always stable financially in spite of fluctuations in membership. He has served as President of the chapter's alwnni building corporation and has been Chapter Adviser since 1949.

Brother Koch was one of the men responsible for the reaativation of Nu following World War II. He has devoted a great deal of his time and effort to the chapter since then.

Brother Koch and his wife, Verene, have one daughter, Mary Jane, a June graduate of the University of Nebraska.

These are men with varied backgrounds, talents, and interests, but they all have one goal-to make Pi Kappa Phi a stronger and better fraternity than it is today.

The adv isers all agreed that their position was a rewarding one. The consensus seemed to be that they learned as much from the chapters as the chapters learned from them. If this is true, we have several Chapter Advisers who have learned a great deal from their chapters.

Washington Get-Together THE RECENTLY REACTIVATED Washington, D. C. Alumni Chapter held its second meeting June 15, with 65 Pi Kapps in attendance, representing chapters from Florida to Oregon.

The Pi Kapps were guests of U. S. Congressman A. Sydney Herlong, Jr., of Florida, Alpha Epsilon '26, University of Florida, for a cocktail party and buffet supper in the House of Representatives Office Building.

Business was kept to a minimum as members of different chapters had an opportunity to meet each other.

Many old fri endships were renewed.

At the first meeting in May, the Washington alumni had 30 present. In a month, they more than doubled their attendance. The number of 65 present makes a record for a Pi Kapp alumni meeting this year and gives other cities a goal at which to shoot.

~~BE FALL of 1919, following

the close of World i ar I, a number of Canadian students were attendengAthe University of Washington. Amongst them were rmy, -Navy and -Air Force, who used to gather at a doungs," a soda fountain on University Way, owned r~· operated by Sam Young, ex-Canadian Army, to \'v·te the battles of 1914 to '18 to the envy of those lh:Vere not ex-servicemen. ts led to the forming in 192 C! ~of the University Canadian v u ' founded on the anniR~~sary of the Battle of Vinny fe, April 9.

1 a h Was soon decided to rent ant ouse and the necessary servli/ so that we could cut down Chi Upsilon Chi Pin OlNtng e.xpenses and enjoy our n restdence. ~.s a club it was found that there were campus actl.Vtt th tes that ' we were unable to enter into, and th" . ts · ought led to forming ourselves into a local fraterntty tn 1922, with the name, Chi Upsilon Chi. th Amongst those not appearing in the enclosed photo, s·e names of Sam Marling, Leslie M.

Creech, Gordon Little, and myself are a few who come to mind.

I wish I could add their present addresses and occupations but must leave that to Walter Jones whose memory is perhaps more vivid than mine.

The local Chi Upsilon Chi carried on until 1923 when it was decided to apply for a charter of Pi Kappa Phi. After due investigations and overtures, this was duly installed on February 23, 1924.

Suffice to say that I was not at the University of Washington at the date of installation, being in about twenty pounds of plaster cast when a group consisting of Brothers Jones, Bindon, and Showell appeared at my home en route to a fishing rendezvous and I was duly initiated into Pi Kappa Phi, plaster cast and all, in August, 1924.

Atlanta Alumni Give Rush Party The Pi Kappa Phi alumni of Atlanta, Georgia, held a Summer Rush Party at Snapfinger Farm August 19.

The affair met with considerable success, there being more than 50 freshmen in attendance, all of whom enjoyed a delicious barbecue prepared under the supervision of alumni wives, Mary Murray and Julie Peters.

This was the first such Summer Rush function in several years for the Atlanta alumni. The success of this one has indicated that this type of alumni activity should and will be continued in the future.

JF YOU NEED

WOMAN LEAVES a man's world. . .

With this issue of The Star and Lamp, Miss Elizabeth H . W. Smith will complete the last of 43 issues, representing almost 11 years of service to Th e Star and Lamp as our Managing Editor.

Upon assuming the position of Managing Editor in 1951, Miss Smith immediately established standards of excellence Miss Elizabeth Smith that have given our magazine prominence throughout the fraternity world. Through her efforts, The Star and Lamp has reached a plane worthy of being the official voice of Pi Kappa Phi Fraternity.

Miss Smith is a polished professional in her field and is recognized as such by her many associations.

Miss Smith is currently listed in the 1961 edition of "Who's Who in the South and Southwest" and the 1961-62 edition of "Who's Who of American Women." She is a member of the William Byrd Chapter of the National Society, Daughters of the American Revolution, the Jamestowne Society, the Virginia Historical Society, and the Business and Professional Women's Club of Richmond, Va. During her term as Managing Editor, Miss Smith has had complete responsibility for the lay-out of The Star and Lamp, and has handled all operational procedures with the printer, engraver, and artist. These duties, coupled with her many other professional interests in Richmond have completely filled her schedule.

Due to the nature of Miss Smith's employment with the Fraternity, especially in its requiring long absences from Virginia, Miss Smith has found it necessary to divorce herself from being its Managing Editor and to devote her attention entirely to her public relations firm in Richmond.

"It is with deep regret that I sever my connection with Pi Kappa Phi," Miss Smith said when she resigned last June. "My association with the Fraternity has been one of the most pleasant associations of my professional career. My friendship for the Fraternity continues unabated, and I shall always count members of Pi Kappa Phi as 'my boys.' " A woman leaves a man's world ? True, perhaps, but we of Pi Kappa Phi who are charged with the responsibility of administering our Fraternity think rather of her leaving as being our loss of a gracious friend who is forced to leave our midst after a long and fmitful association. Thank you, Miss Smith, for a job well done.

Voluntary Gift Program Q N October 1, a letter and brochure were placed in the mail to 1 6,500 Pi Kapps. This was the inauguration of the first Fraternity-wide voluntary gift drive. On November 1, a second letter went out to all not having responded to the initial request.

The need for this continuing program has been outlined quite adequately in the material mailed.

It is a most demanding need and must be met if our Fraternity is to progress. Much study and investigation have preceded the final action. Those

20

of us charged with the responsibility of administering Pi Kappa Phi must now depend upon you alumni for ultimate success.

If you have not already done so, won't you please respond to these needs and mail your donation as soon as possible? Start now and plan to continue so that with each passing year our Fraternity will become more vigorous and meaningful. Your participation will also help rekindle in your own heart "the fires of fraternalism."
