REMARK§ OF DEAN LESTER HALE

MORAL EXCELLENCE MEANS STRENGTH (Editor's Note: Below a1·e remarks of Lester L. Hale, the University of Florida's Dean of Student Affairs, at dedication ceremonies for Pi Kappa Phi's Alpha Epsilon Chapte-r house in February. Though addressed to his students, Dean Hale's thoughts certainly have significant meaning to graduates in all walks of life as well.)

OMEHOW I always prefer to address my remarks to the students on a happy day like this. At the ground br~~~; ing of this fine fraternity house, I pledged the University's continued concem ror its fraternities and 8 in order that the brotherhoods, administratwn and faculty of the University together might prove the publiCitY soro~l tO

be wrong in its belief that fraternities are on their way out. They are on their way up not out at the Universnsl of Florida. We believe that the fraternities will continue in their cooperation with the University to make fr.aterand homes such as this one more meaningful, more worthy and more consonant with the aims of higher educatiOn re· that they will aid us in providing the best possible educational experience for the talented youth who come ne That pledge is here repeated and reinforced on this happy day of dedication.

Moral Excellence I should like to take just one more moment on this public occasion to say further, however, that in ordel' :::. today's emphasis on academic excellence in education to make its best contribution to the strength of our st ce! nation and civilization itself, there must be a companion or complimentary emphasis placed on moral exceJle!ltltB Just as the usefulness of the arm is dependent not only upon the biceps for its pull of flexion but also upollJ(ioO triceps for its pull of extension-so is the usefulness of educational achievement dependent upon the firm ~e ·it1· of intellectual superiority in combination with an equally strong force of extension through moral super 1~1 110r These are complimentarily balanced-agonist and antago~ist. The biceps cannot push the arm to do its wor tltB can the triceps push the hand to grasp the task. When e1ther one is weak there is an imbalance that renders ~s arm paralyzed or handicapped. And too much tension, or spasticity, of the biceps can disrupt this balance greatly as can its tlacid paralysis.

A Misshapen Position

't . t f J'Jlorll So with our emphasis on intellectual excel l ence-if. 1 IS s ronger than the complimentary action o fql strength the resulting imbalance may se!ious~y hand1c~p the c.apacity of the intellect to perform posit~velY 8re society. I submit that this is our current s1tuatwn todar m. our h1g:h .schools and colleges. Our intellectual b1ceP~ 0 si· strong, but the weakness of the opposing force of morahty IS P.erm1tt~ng society to be pulled into a misshapen 1Jqf tion resemblin~ spasticity-not because of any over emphasis on mtellectual development, but due to an ~tl emphasis on moral character.

Use The Brotherhood

baed I Sai You say you cannot legislate morals and y~u are probably right-neither does a muscle nor a rubber d'tioO ~~ac· 1 perform by pushing. It is by pulling that work 1s done. But how does a muscle pull that has not stayed in con 5to· <oq · by the proper exercise of it? Exercise to strengthen the ~oral e?Ctension of one's life must be done by you-thS811 ce· Or a dent. The University can provide the books, faculty, ms~ruchon and classrooms leading to academic exce yoO lio But you have in this frate;nity the classroo~ or gymnasiUm for: the exercise of moral responsibility. UnleS~ 11 itY· 1 bells use the brotherhood for th1s purpose, you w1ll weaken and handicap the whole body of the educational comlll r.:tab •l\le .

Legacies, cont. . . .

Need A Job-

"The average boy, entering college, makes his choice of a fraternity primarily on the basis of the men presently in the undergraduate chapter. That is natural enough, and it can be assumed that this is the most important factor to be considered. However, there are other things that ought not be lost sight of, the most important point being that one joins a fraernity for life and he is extremely shortsighted if he ignores this feature."

Dr. John M. Aden, professor of English at Vanderbilt University, and a member of Kappa Alpha, expressed the same thought in an article in the Kappa Alpha Journal recently.

..i For the benefit of brothers who may be seeking employJII,.bD Pi Kappa Phi baa compiled a list of employment co-ordinators al'e eager to help. . tb' Not every state is included yet but the list is growing. It 'iui11· Fraternity's goal to reach into all 50 states in order to serve fitl If you're interested in securing a job, carefully prepare tJ)f~ copies of a resume about yourself and mail them to one of t?~rn..' listed below. Don't forget to include personal history, emP 0r~ reeord, educational experience, military and marital status, for aeeking a new position, and type work desired.

The Real Issue

"At the risk of sounding trite, I must say . . . that the real issue, for actives and alumni alike, is, and ought to be, the Order. Surely this comes first, above both chapter and alumni interests," said Aden.

What is at stake in the final analysis, maintained Aden, is "what is the value of this person, this individual, to the Ideal embodied in a fraternity of other individuals."

The legacy's relationship to a family already in the fraternity ought to command some special consideration, said Aden, "some greater than ordinary scrutiny of his qualifications, both for loyalty's sake and for the sake of sound recruiting, for there is surely some probability . . . of a readiness and rightness in a member of the family."

"If he is your man, legacy won't matter; if he's not, legacy can't matter. But do look at him; he deserves it, as much as you did," Aden declared.

Respect Individual Opinions

Finally the Pi Kappa Phi brotherhood should respect individual opinions as well as the body of opinion :that is the whole of the thinking of the fraternity.

If an alumnus recommends a candidate for membership in this brotherhood, the active chapter should realize the recommendation comes from a fellow brother. If his opinion is that the legacy should be pledged, the active chapter should look further than they might normally be inclined to do into the individual worth of the candidate.

And likewise, the alumnus, respecting the opinions and attitudes of the current generation of undergraduate Pi Kapps, should not attempt to press a recommendation on an active chapter unless he feels the addition of the candidate to the fraternity would be of value to the individual and the brotherhood at large.

Foremost, both alumni and undergraduate members of Pi Kappa Phi should remember the adage-Once a Pi Kapp, always a Pi Kapp.

HOW GAMMA PICKS A ROSE poETRESS Gertrude Stein wrote the eternal and colossal line : . "Rose is a rose is a rose ls a rose."

William Shakespeare also ;~ltivated a literary rose. vv rote Will: "W hat's in a name? That which we call a rose By any other name would smell as sweet."

The brothers of Gamma Cfhapter at the University 0 • California in Berkeley fhu.tte obviously take such lngs to heart.

Being a "new" chapter ~ Garnma was reinstituted n1Y this year) and a small Gne ( 10 brothers) , the arnma men decided to ~hare the selection of their l' nnual Rose Queen with the i est of the Berkeley campus nn order to spread the good arne of Pi Kappa Phi. Talent and Beauty

le i~e chapter voted to sea c Its 1964 Rose by way of ch contest, with judges A.~den by the brotherhood. w the basis of selection shas talent in singing and b 0 Wrnanship as well as eauty.

A hand-picked group of 80 in r?rities on campus were inv;~ed to enter candidates co e Pi Kapp Rose Queen tiv!n.Petition. As an incenGae for the lovely coeds, the Qurn rna men offered the sh een, whomever she to 0 Lld be, a weekend trip Si .as Vegas, a weekend thngtng engagement with an~ Gayniters band there sco fn audition with talent clubu ,s on Las Vegas' night 'Strip." soJ'h~ response from the or1ty houses was im-

1964

mediate. Thirteen of the 17 sororities invited entered candidates.

The Big Night

An evening of swimming, dancing, Hawaiian luau and entertainment was planned for the night of the Rose Queen selection program.

As Brother Rusty Patrick of Gamma described the event: "We rented Strawherry Canyon Clubhouse and obtained a band. Bob Patrick, the leader of the Gayniters, flew to Berkeley to help us in the selection.

We used a Hawaiian theme and arranged for a real hula dancer from the Islands to entertain.

"We had a crowd of over 100 people, including members of some of the top houses on campus and the senior class president. This was done by a chapter with 10 members!"

Gamma's Girls ••• Nice!

Sheri Petersen Chosen

When the hula dancing, swimming and the talentbeauty contest was over, pretty Sheri Petersen, a Zeta Tau Alpha sophomore, was crowned Gamma's Rose of Pi Kappa Phi. Pert and pretty coeds Vicki Lott, a Kappa Delta, and Bonnie Cancienne, an Alpha Omicron Pi, were chosen the Rose Queen's attendants to complete the 1964 Rose Court.

The Rose Queen and her attendants will be Gamma's official hostesses next year, until a new Rose Queen is crowned.

The Gamma men hope to establish their Rose court contest as an annual campus event.

"We hope the sororities will know us as the 'Gateway to Las Vegas,' " said Brother Patrick.

New Chapters, cont . ...

J. AI Head, Alpha Zeta, of Washington, D. C., former National President was the chartering officer and Executive Secretary Owen was the assistant chartering officer. Zeta Chapter at Wofford College sent the initiating team. And Brother W. Harold Read, vice president, finances, of the University of Tennessee was the speaker at the chartering banquet.

Brother Moore is Beta Omega's Chapter Advisor, assisted by Charles B. Rice, Iota, son of the late Devereau D. Rice, former National President of the Fraternity.

The Fraternity's newest chaptel:'-its 73rd-had its origin in the founding in 1949 of a secret society known as Sigma Delta Sigma local fraternity on the campu of Livingston State College.

The local developed well, and through the years, it contributed significantly to campus life. In the Spring of 1963, with the blessing of the new president of the college, Dr. John DeLoney, the local fraternities on the campus were permitted to petition for national affiliation.

Sigma Delta Sigma petitioned Pi Kappa Phi in May 1963, and was accepted the following September as Kappa Phi Colony of Pi Kappa Phi. Having exhibited excellent progress and tremendous determination, the group was accepted by the Fraternity for chartering on May 2, 1964, when it became Gamma Alpha Chapter of Pi Kappa Phi. Frank Hawthorne, Alpha Iota, National Treasurer, was the chartering officer, and Shelby Mitchell, Omicron, was assistant chartering officer. Omicron Chapter at the University of Alabama sent the initiating team and Leo Pou, Omicron, former National Secretary and general solicitor for the Gulf, Mobile & Ohio Railroad, was the chartering banquet speaker. He was introduced by Rep. George Grant (D., Ala.), Omicron.

Nathan Watkins, Omicron, is Gamma Alpha's Chapter Advisor, assisted

I Kapp Charles R. Holley, Mu, is the Republican candidate for Governor of Florida.

As a gubernatorial candidate, Brother Holley joins Dan K. Moore, Kappa, of North Carolina, Democratic candidate for governor of that state, as a Pi Kapp aiming for the statehouse in N ovember.

Holley graduated from Duke University, where he joined Pi Kappa Phi, then earned his law degree from the University of Florida, home of the fraternity's Alpha Epsilon chapter.

He is a resident of St. Petersburg, Fla., where he maintains a law practice.

Holley also is a banker and member of the Florida House of Representatives.

Holley, interviewed by phone in Florida, said he believed his chances to win the governorship good and said he expects to campaign with Sen. Barry Goldwater, the Republican presidential nominee, on an upcoming Goldwater cam-

paign foray into the sunshine state.

"The Senator's and my political philosophies are very similar," said Holley.

"I believe that we have an opportunity here for the first time since Reconstruction days to elect a Republican governor in Florida," he said.

Holley said this hope is enhanced by the "changing complexion of the South," noting that many Southern Democrats of like political philosophy probably would back the Republican party in the November elections.

Brother Barry Crim of Deland, Fla. wrote The Star and Lamp of Brother Holley's nomination as the Republican candidate for governor and urged his brother Pi Kapps of either political party to support Holley's candidancy.

"Knowing that a good many of our brothers in Florida are registered Democrats, as I was until a few months ago, I ask each of you to examine your conscience in the N ovember elections before voting for any 'party' candidate," said Crim. "It is our solemn duty as responsible citizens and parents to be loyal Americans first and party members last."

Crim described Holley as "an articulate conservative," and noted that "those who have heard him speak or know him personally have been greatly impressed with his sincerity and his ability to pin down the issues that now are destroying personal freedom and the free enterprise of all Americans."

ALCOHOL

By W. P.

SHOFSTALL Dean of Students Arizona State University

E always have had alcohol with us and we are likely to have it with us for some time yet to come. There are some people who for religious, cultural or social reasons are going to drink, and there are others who for the same reasons are not going to drink. Our difficulties in dealing with the drinking of alcohol do not stem from the people who do NOT drink! Our trials and tribulations stem from all those people who for reasons both good and bad drink alcohol and intend to continue to drink. Our quandary, however', with all th0$e people who drink and who intend to contin!lC to drink can be solved only if we all recognize that one in fifteen is a potential alcoholic. Knowledge about moderale drinking is important but the issue of moderation has litde to do with alcohol.

If we could teach the basic information about alcoholism to everybody, we would, surely have answered as completely as is possible questions rai$Cd by alcohol on the campus. This basic in¡ formation must be understood and accepted by ALL students, teachers and

lese students every year. Most of thoae I meet are male and members of fraternities. Many of our membera do drink boveraaes

containina alcohol. Most of these that do drink did not have their first drink at a fraternity party or â&#x20AC;˘ fraternity appnsored party.

They drank before c:olleae. Moat &tudents I meet do not drink durin& the week. If they do drink it'uon weekends.

is in any way very effective, until we are able to affect a change in our entire in· teUectual and spiritual climate so far as alcohol is concerned.~ The' necessity for the creation of this intellectual and spiritual climate might seem to be an impossible task and a sign of hopeless pessimism but, in my opinion, if we might and would provide a significant and valid program for teaching the basic information we now possess about alcohol and alcoholism in our colleges and universities, then and only then could we have, in a reasonably short time, the change in climate which would allow us to influence the conduct of students in relation to alcohol.

Seven Basic Facte in Alcohol Education I. Approximately one ( 1) person in fifteen (IS) is a potential alcoholic.

Fourteen are not. This ratio holds good in ALL groups.

2. No person can know in advance of his drinking if he is or is not a potential alcoholic. Therefore EVERY person, whether be drinks or not, must know the facts about alcohol· ism. , 3. An alcoholic is a person who RE· PEATEDLY gets into trouble after drinking but who continues to drink and, as a result, gets into trouble again.

An expert speaker on erably a member of Anonymous, should be all student groups and should be urged to hear speaker at least once each year.

ConciUBion This approach to alcohol . leaves no room for intolerance; at· no room for bigotry; it leaves no for arrogance; it leaves no hypocrisy. Above all, it for those who cannot learn new. It requires hard work, and faith in ourselves, in God, in others. Above all, we must patience of Job and the courage fool, without becoming one.

(Editor's Note : The following story about Pi Kapp Bill Pharr, Epsilon '98, appeared in The Charlotte Observer in February. It appears below as it was written by the Observer's Thomas G. W ells, to whom goes our thanks for providing pictures and permission to reprint his story.)

By THOMAS G. WELLS OBSERVER GASTON BUREAU

cADENVILLE-Bill Pharr is the Big Daddy of this little mill town of 750, and he's the kind of Big Daddy everyone would like to have.

"He's McAdenville's sweetheart," said 69-year-old Mrs. Jessie Donaldson proudly. She adjusted her. silver rimmed glasses and tucked her hands in the pockets of a neatly starched pink apron.

Mrs. Donaldson expressed the sentiments of this town.

Pharr bought the town in 1939-lock,

stock and barrel. It was just a community of ramshackle houses and an abandoned mill. A victim of the depression.

Pharr didn't like the looks of the town, so he changed it.

He planted flowers and trees. He built churches. He painted and repaired houses. He paved streets.

Earl Pratt, who runs the local restaurant-soda shop, said, "I can remember way back in 1928 when I came through here." Several customers in the soda shop perked up their ears.

"These are some other recreational facilities he's provided us."

The McAdenville Pharr Yams, the local softball team, is also proud of its boss. And the boss is proud of the team. It has won the world championship for industrial slow pitch softball three of the last four years.

Pharr has the team flown to the playoffs, usually held in a Northern state. The Pharr Yarns will travel to Providence, R. I., this year to defend its title.

No city taxes, free city water and

minimum rent are other reasons peo· ple like it here. There is no police force or fire department to support.

The town doesn't even have a jail -and hasn't had since the last one washed away during a flood 25 years ago.

McAdenville residents are especially boastful around Christmas. The hamlet is known as "The Christmas City" because of its colorful decorations on shrubs, trees, houses and other buildings.

Each year the automobiles line up bumper to bumper as people drive from miles around to see the decorations.

LAWYER ADMIRAL BOB POWERS RETIRES FROM U. S. NAVY I{ EAR Adm. Robert D. Powers Jr., Rho '24,

h one of the Navy's two lawyer admirals, as retired after 23 years' active duty.

t· An expert in international and administra-

j~\lde law, Powers had been the Navy's deputy ge advocate general since 1960. c ~is naval career, and his civilian career prefe Ing it, have been crowded with momentus 00 tnotes. n l~ the middle thirties, Brother Powers, a l>abve of Gloucester County, Va. (but reared in !o0:rtsmouth, Va.) was practicing law in homeaWn Portsmouth. He became assistant city \ttto~ney, attended the Democratic national cont:~!~ons in 1936 and 1940 as a Virginia dele-

.Powers had received a Navy reserve com-

~~~hsion in September 1937 as war clouds were a ering in Europe and the Far East.

Called To The Colors n/our years later he was on active duty-the ~ st legal specialist called to active duty by the avy. a81'hat summer of 1941 Powers was assigned Bathe first legal officer of the Naval Operating se at Trinidad. ~/n.a sense the U.S. Navy's very existence in ce 1nidad was a measure of his personal sucSi~s. For Powers helped effect the legal proviUtt~ of the "bases for destroyers" agreement ~r· e.r which the United States obtained the L'tudad facility from Great Britain. \te} ater Powers was to participate in the deOf ~rnent of arrangements for the surrender W ermany and Japan and the end of World ad~r II. He also was chief counsel for the judge in ocate of the Naval Court of Inquiry which bo~~stigated the Japanese attack on Pearl Har-

Promoted To Admiral ar~Xcept for a brief time on inactive status ~aer the war, Powers has been in the active de YY continuously since 1941. In 1960 he was Re~lgnated deputy and assistant judge advocate lt!oteral of the Navy, and a year later was prot"1 ed to rear admiral. ,.)• sj ~S deputy JAG, Powers interpreted congres0 tioll al acts and recommended appropriate ac1' to be followed by the Navy. ,~1 he vital importance of his work by no means

ended with the German and Japanese surrender in World War II. As one of the Navy's most experienced international lawyers, he helped lay the groundwork for the 1962 Cuban quarantine ordered by President Kennedy at the height of the missile crisis.

Interestingly, Powers had predicted the feasibility of such action as early as 1958 in an article in the Naval Institute Proceedings magazine.

Joined The Brotherhood After leaving the county of his birth when his parents moved the Powers family to Portsmouth, young Bob completed public schooling at that city's Woodrow Wilson High School.

After graduation from high school, he entered Washington and Lee University, where he joined the brotherhood of Pi Kappa Phi, earned his bachelor's degree, then went on to gain his law degree at Washington and Lee's Law School.

Then it was home to Portsmouth to practice the law. He married the former Mary Kathryn Carney of Churchland (in Portsmouth). Then while practicing law he accepted the reserve commission that marked the start of a blending of careers of law and military service to his country.

When his retirement from the Navy was announced recently, Powers indicated he and his wife would return from their suburban Washington home to their home at 3 Vacation Lane in Chesapeake, Va., a city adjacent to Portsmouth.

Honored By W &L In 1962 Powers returned to his alma mater to receive an honorary Doctor of Laws degree at Washington and Lee University's 213th commencement ceremony in Lexington, V a.

Fred Carrington Cole, president of the University, conferred the degree on Powers, who shared the honor that day with another military leader, an industri•a list and a public school official, and read the citation that accompanied the prestigious degree.

That citation praised Powers for "his dedicated service to his nation, his scholarship in matters of international law and other fields his exemplary merger of legal and navai careers."

Under their leadership the fraternity is anticipating ~not?er outpouring of alumni interest and artJcipation in its financial affairs. t.> 'I'his is the fourth year that graduate Pi ~~PPa Phis have had the opportunity to conttlbute financially to the fraternity's growth and continuation. Each succeeding year has 0Und a larger number of alumni participating n an ever increasing amount. . Much constructive good has been made posSible by this increased financial support. As ahn example, five new undergraduate chapters a\Te been chartered in the 1963-64 school ~ear; a new pledge manual has been prepared; ~fraternity film exclusively for Pi Kappa Phi's se has been produced (Pi Kappa Phi being one 0 / only four national fraternities having such fn excellent operational aid); and many other "'eatures to the fraternity's service to under<>taduates and alumni have been developed.

Brothers Carr and Hipp are thankful for ~our past support that has made these things ~~Ssible. They "encourage your consideration t the 1964-65 program when it is presented You in September and ask you to respond With generous financial support.

HIGH COURT JUSTICE SAYS FRATERNITY MEN CAN AID DEMOCRACY

Justice Clark

! Editor's Note: The Honorable Tom C. Clark, associate justice of the U. S. Supreme Court, presented the following suggestions before leading r epresentatives of the ·national college fraternity system in a banquet address which he made recently in New York City. Justice Clark is curr ently national vice president of D elta Tau Delta Fraternity.) " ... Just as sure as education is the guardian of democracy, brotherliness is its keeper. Fraternities can do much to bring this truth home to the American people.

"In doing so we must tap our greatest resource, the college graduates who wear the fraternity badge. This is where we have failed miserably. We have projected an image of fraternities as being solely an undergraduate activity. It is not. Once a fraternity man, always a fraternity man. Like the iceberg, we have hidden our most potent force from view.. I suggest that we redesign our image bringing into the profile our greatest asset--the graduate fraternity men in America. Let's put them to work.

"Picture, if you will, the potential of such a group, dedicated as they are to our cause and working through our active chapters and thousands of alumni ones. Imagine, if you will, the influence that these leaders might also wield in every public community in America. We could not only organize more fraternities to meet the bulging student population but we could increase the number of our own chapters. In this way we could make fraternity life and ideals available to every student wishing the experience. Hard to do? Yes, all good things are hard to attain. But I am sure that with a strong dedicated program it could be done in a few years. This problem, my brothers is bigger than my fraternity-it is bigger tha~ yours-its success will take the cooperation of all fraternities united in one grand cause.

"Is the fraternity system worth it? I say emphatically that it is."

MAC MORRIS AD DIRECTOR

OF "THIS WEEK"

fo~ l troleum in the United States.;\~ ~~

the r

G. Morris, Epsilon '39, M ACrecently was named adver-

tising director and vice president of This Week magazine, the country's biggest Sunday supplement magazine.

Brother Morris joined This Week in 1952, became manager of the Los Angeles office in 1955 and returned to New York as eastern ad manager in 1959, becoming assistant ad sales manager in 1962.

In his new post Morris will supervise sales for the newly designed "multi-magazine" issues of This Week, which is distributed in 43 Sunday newspapers in the U. S. with a combined circulation of 14,500,000.

The advertising trade journal Printers' Ink noted in a recent issue that Morris believes the magazine's new concept of attracting specialized audiences and ,a dvertisers on a rotating weekly basis with special issue themes will give This Week "longer life," in that copies will be retained for future reference by readers and most of the material in rt hem will be of equal interest to both sexes.

Said Printers' Ink of Morris: "A tall, lean North Carolinian of 41, he joined the Marines as a lieutenant in 1942 after graduating from Davidson College in his home state (Woodrow Wilson was a freshman there before transferring to Princeton after, says Morris, "he couldn't make it at Davidson")."

Morris himself now lives in Princeton, N.J., with his wife, the former Janelle Connevey, and their four children.

GET OFF THE FENCE! By Thomas A. Fry Jr. (Iota-Georgia Tech), Fleming H. Revell Co., Westwood, N. J., $2.50.

A volume on morals for moderns, Brother Fry's book poses the question: How now do we make decisions concerning such things as adultery, drinking, gambling, business ethics?

Said a reviewer : "Our era is a far cry from the world of the Ten Commandments. In these pages, Thomas A. Fry Jr., pastor of Dallas' great First Presbyterian Church, deals with the challenging problems facing today's Christian. In his counseling and pastoral experience, Dr. Fry has seen countless decisions made--and the tragedy and heartache that result from misjudgment. He speaks with forthright clarity to all who are confused by life in the atomic age."

LEAFLET CONTAINS MESSAGE FROM 18th CENTURY EDINBURGH

l<'UN AND FELLOWSHIP MOBILE, ALABAMA August 24-28, 1964 30TH SUPREME CHAPTER (1964 Convention)

1964

Former National President W. Bernard (Bernie) Jones Jr. of Pinewood, S.C. turned up a leaflet with the following message: . .

"The following quotation, made m the year 1790 by Dr. Alexander Tytler, prefessor of General History, University of Edinburgh, is presented herewith as a public service.

"A D emocracy cannot exist as a permanent form of government. .It can only exist until the voters d1scove1· that they can vote themselves la1·g ess out of the public treasury.

From that moment on the majority always votes jo1· the candidate p1·omis-

ing the most benefits j1·om that public t1·easury, with the result that a democracy will always collapse from a loose fiscal policy (burden of large public debt), always to be followed by a dictatorship.

"What are you doing to prevent Dr. Tytler's frightening prediction from becoming a reality? How precious is your freedom to you?"

Commented Brother Jones: "The extent to which a man bucks this trend is the measure of his willingness to pay the price of long-range (500 year Oasis) freedom for America."

planned and effected. There'll be special events for your wives, too, so bring them along.

Accommodations for conventioning Pi Kapps will be at the Admiral Semmes Hotel and Motor Hotel in downtown Mobile, and reservations can be made directly with the Admiral Semmes at special convention rates.

Incidentally, Alabama's Gulf Coast beaches and fishing spots are only a short drive from the convention city, which may interest Pi Kapp fishermen.

Who knows, you might be able to go home with a big fish story, too.

ENJOYING YOUR SUMMER? WHY NOT HELP RUSH r.f.,

R_ VSH

is a highly competitive function on most college campuses today. If an incom· bllg freshman has not been personally contacted a fraternity prior to his arrival at college, 1 tt fraternity often does not stand a chance of /I edging him.

Pi Kappa Phi Alumni can help.

I' Alumni often look upon this fraternity funclon as belonging only to the undergraduate ftternbers. This is not so. Rush is the obligation of all Pi Kapps-graduate and undergraduate.

4ll Pi Kapps should be interested in insuring 1 ~e future of Pi Kappa Phi by working to con~nue the influx of qualified pledges to the un· ergraduate chapters.

Look around you-at your friends, fellow employees, neighbors, church nml club as· 8 °Ciates. Are there young men in this group .

planning to enter college where there is a Pi Kappa Phi Chapter?

If you know of any prospective Pi Kapp pledges, contact them, tell them about your fraternity, sell them on Pi Kappa Phi. The National Office is always ready to help alumni rush. Send the names and addresses of your prospective Pi Kapps to the National Office now on the postage paid card below. Ask the National Office for tips on how you may rush men in yortr community for Pi Kappa Phi. If you know of other Pi Kapp Alumni in your area, get together with them on a rushing program. Perhaps your group can plan a steak fry, an afternoon luncheon, an evening program -to tell young men heading for college about Pi Kappa Phi. Remember, yonr fraternity needs outstmuling young men to keep it strong•
