By Frank Dennis, Alpha Gamma UTSIDE of government operated museums, art gal0 leries, monuments and buildings, the institution in Washington, D. C., which attracts t he most visitors each year is the National Historical Wax Museum, founded in 1958 by Frank L. Dennis, Alpha Gamma, and Mrs. Dennis. Dennis and his wife are both graduates of Oklahoma University, where he joined Pi Kappa Phi and she was a Kappa Alpha Theta. He also is a Harvard Law School graduate and was formerly night managing editor of The Washington Post. Theirs has proved a perfect partnership in creating historical wax museums. He is well groun ded in American history and from his long experience as a newspaper editor has a good sense of what interests people. She is a well known collector of antiques and other objects d'art. She chooses and arranges the backgrounds for the tableaux in the museums. When the Washington museum was established on a finan cial shoestring, Mrs. Dennis furnished most of the objects for the settings from her own collection. Below Dennis writes about his museums for The Star and Lamp. 6

and Capitol Hill. The building it occupies is the block-long former center city market, built in 1874. A year ago the area was slum-ridden and its police precinct scored the worst crime record in Washington. Now, slums near the museum have been razed and the number of crimes has been reduced dramatically. A cafeteria seating 500 persons is housed in the museum building, along with an information center for Washington's tourist throngs. And the museum itself has grown -from an initial "population" in 1958 of fewer than 100 effigies to more than 200 in 1967. We're always growing, and always

intend to. We recently installed a tableau showing Major White "walking" in space. Our next will be of Captain Bill Carpenter being transformed magically from the West Point "lonesome end" to the heroic leader in Viet Nam calling for an air strike on his own position, willing to give his life for his country. What's next? We're not sure, but we're thinking about 1976, the bicentennial of the Declaration of Independence. We'll have something special for that year, you may be sure. And we're thinking about building the largest public parking garage in Washington, and a motel.

THE N. I. C.-\NHAT IT IS, \NHAT IT DOES By W. B. (Bernie} Jones, Alpha N I C Executive Committee

Tozier Brown, Vice-President The National Interfraternity is one of the most able s and advertising execuknown. His sensitivity to relations needs is keen. A few ~hgo, he decided to do something e fact that the annual Nationternity Meeting was athich by an ever-changing group Was unable to function as suc~s it might because it spent Its meeting time learning th and organization struce N.

My sketchy Ion about it was confined to that we paid an annual belong, we had an annual a delegate) ; the N.I.C. ~dvisory than supervisory, It was a loose federation ~as. not really in a position to or Its constituents. close of my three years as a .,.~f the Executive Committee ·~. I. C., I now have these lt~he ~: . thIs ha · ~· C. ts a loose federationSat \V 'PPtly so for the same reasons t!ttes are proud that the United t aitteds a republic. The N. I. C. has ~~~e or so~ething that many similar lave tto1abmzations should retain, but ~tween een able to-a happy blend centralized power and the 1 thts 'l'hnd privileges of its constitu1~~ts. 0Ugh there are forces which Vor ~ ~~r~ 1perhaps subconsciously, a more ~ e~t thed form of N.

vidual fraternity level with the N.I.C. serving as a coordinating, policy and information disseminating body, and a dignified front to the non-fraternity world. To retain this status it is essential that the powers and rights of the individual fraternities not be forfeited to the N. I. C. Attending such N. I. C. position is the fact that the N. I. C. must move slowly, bumblingly, and cautiously. It cannot be dictatorial and autocratic. While dictatorship and autocratic processes are many times more efficient, they are more becoming to profit-motivated enterprises than to service organizations such as N. I. C. When one faults the slowness, bumblesomeness, and cumbersomeness of N. I. C., one necessarily faults the republic type of government so essential to happiness of organizations which want coordinated action but do not want to relinquish their powers. I like what we have. N. I. C. Leadership is made up of a blend of educators, businessmen, and professional fraternity leaders. I consider this a wholesome balance. The influence of educators is a vital one in that it helps us, in the fraternity world, to remember that we are invited adjuncts of the educational system. To help us serve the functions on campuses, which we should serve-that of supplying that side of man's life which cannot come from the classroom, per se, the educator guides us into acceptable campus behavior patterns. He guides us away from unacceptable behavior patterns. The professional fraternity ex e c u t i v e helps us operate on a sound basis, administratively, financially, personnel-wise, and from an esoteric point of view. The businessman, sometimes crustily, reminds one and all that the undergraduate college fraternity man must learn how to operate, singly and collectively, as a sound business entity. He insists upon sound business practices. I consider N. I. C. executive leailership excellent. It would be an easy thing for those college and fraternity officials working with the fraternities to compare the N. I. C. executive office to that of individual fraternities. This is a dangerous comparison. The individual col-

lege fraternitv has more centralized power. The lines of authority are more direct. Stron~er demands are made upon its offiCials and working group. The views of its constituents are more consolidated and interrelated. Conversely, the N. I. C. executive must handle a wide polyglot of administrative detail with fewer common denominators among the constituents. He must be careful not to express any views contrary to those 0f his constituents. The dissemination of information is a good bit more troublesome because his mailing lists are not nearly so well controlled and are a great deal more widely spread. His policy structure is broader and not so well defined. So, I have developed a good bit more patience with the operation of the N. I. C. administrative offices now that I have learned that office is necessarily different from the average college fraternity executive office. Major functions of a program such as N. I. C. are to provide acceptable standards and incentives for improved performance. The N. I. C. has done a real tine job of eliciting from its constituents basic standards for acceptable fraternity chapter operation. It is strong in this area. It has made determined efforts to provide incentives for improved chapter performances. These incentives have come in the form of various kinds of awards to local IFC's. While it is distressing that we do not have a great deal more participation in this program; rather than be displeased with this, I am so pleased that N. I. C. has made the impact that it has. There are approximately 100 colleges and universities which now feel the impact of N. I. C. incentives to improve fraternity scholarship and local chapter operation. In summary, I feel that N. I. C. is wisely a loose federation of fraternities, that it has good leadership, both at the governing body level and administrative office level, and that it is serving an excellent purpose. It is making progress toward being an even more virile influence upon the college fraternity system.

A Letter Of Interest From A Brother In Germany Dear Brothers: In the August 1966 issue of The Star and Lamp I noticed that I am listed among the "missing brothers" of the Fraternity. It seems that not the address but contact was missing and I hurry to reestablish this contact. My current address is CharlottenstraBe 76, Bochum (code 463) in Germany. Bochum is the seat of the newly chartered Ruhr-University, the first major new German University project after the war. The new Alma Mater, which is a $600,000,000 construction project, will eventually have around 20,000 students. All faculties from psychology, liberal arts, education, law, economics and social science, as well as all natural sciences and engineering are represented. I am a member of the law faculty, teaching commercial law, trade regulation and labor law. At present I am dean of the law faculty and president-elect of the university. My term as president runs from fall of 1967 to fall of 1969. Contacts with America since my stay at Davidson in 1949-50 have been steady and close. I spent two separate years in Washington, D. C. (1958-59 and 1961-62), during which I studied at the Georgetown Law School and worked at the Georgetown Institute for Foreign and International Trade Law, acquiring a Ll.M. degree during the second year. As a member of the executive board of the Georgetown Institute for Foreign and International Trade Law I come to Washington about once a year. Receiving The StaT and Lamp to me means a continuous joy, and I take great pride in the Fraternity to which I belong. Sincerely yours, Dr. Kurt H. Biedenkopf Bochum, Germany 10

AMES Fogarty, Alpha No. 1, Jington, died January 5, 1967 in WashD. C. He was buried in Arlington National Cemetery. He was 67 and is survived by his wife, Dorothy, and three sons, James, William, and Oliver Charles. Brother Fogarty was an architect in Washington.

FRATERNITY HONORS THREE Three members of Pi Kappa Phi have been singularly recognized by the 31st Supreme Chapter as recipients of the Fraternity's Merit Citation. This citation is the highest award given by Pi Kappa Phi. These graduate members join a list of initiates who have served their Fraternity with great affection and devotion. The award was established in 1934 by the 17th Supreme Chapter to honor those alumni members who have served the Fraternity far beyond normal expectations. The citation reads: "Whereas ______ __ _ has rendered exceptionally meritorous service to the Pi Kappa Phi Fraternity the Supreme Chapter of Pi Kappa Phi has ordered that this citation of distinguished service be presented to him as a permanent testimonial of the esteem and affection in which he will ever be held by the Fraternity." During the 32 years of its existence only 72 Pi Kapps have been presented this recognition. The most recent three are those designated by the 31st Supreme Chapter Meeting in Miami Beach, Florida.

NEW INSURANCE PLAN Our official Pi Kappa Phi sponsored life insurance program is undergoing a change this year. In order to keep pace with today's high cost of living, the new program will feature level amounts of insurance rather than the decreasing amounts that are contained in the current plan. The $20,000 life insurance benefit will remain constant until the insured member reaches age 70. This will guarantee a high insurance benefit throughout the productive years.

Many of the features Pi Kapp's have found attrac路 tive in the decreasing plan are also contained in the new, level plan. Those members who are insured under the old plan will remain insured and need not worrY about losing their benefits. If they wish, they maY also apply for coverage under the new plan (see inside bacl< cover, this issue). We feel this is another important step in keeping your Fraternity's programs up-to-date.

Officers for the second semester are: Archon, Benjamin Mcinnes; Treasurer, Lee Sigmon; Secretary, Glenn McConnell; Warden, George Malanos; Historian, Michael Irwin; and Chaplain, Wayne Bauknight. Under their capable leadership we are looking forward to a most successful semester.

BETA--PRESBYTERIAN ETA Chapter has enjoyed a successful semester. Our "pet project" has been the support of Boys' Farm of Newberry, South Carolina. After months of sponsoring various money-raising projects, a much needed bus was purchased for the orphanage. At the ceremony for the presentation of the bus, Beta's old television was also donated. On December 4 the chapter gave a Christmas party for the boys. Members bought gifts, and our largest pledge acted as Santa Claus. Beta's rush season was long this year under the college's new social rules. Drop-ins after home games and a few parties enabled the chapter members to meet almost all the freshman class. An excellent closed smoker was enjoyed by 70 members and rushees, thanks to the generosity of one of Beta's Clinton alumni, Dr. George R. Blalock. Dr. and Mrs. Blalock entertained with a seated dinner. Afterwards, there was a program highlighted by Pi Kappa Phi's traveling counselor, Bill Dicks. Pledge Day saw Beta pick up six outstanding freshmen: J. Michael Gower, Decatur, Ga.; Sherwood C. McKay, Jr., Atlanta, Ga.; Lewis T. Clyburn, Kershaw, S. C.; Clinton E. Massey, Atlanta, Ga.; John S. Oswalt, Hollywood, Fla.; John R. Ritter, Goldsboro, N. C. Much needed house improvements were finally realized. The fraternity suite was remodeled by the college, and, after an appeal to the alumni, new furniture was purchased. New draperies also enhanced the rooms' decor. A new colonial door has been added to improve the entrance. Elections were held recently. Archon is Neill W. McKay, Greensboro, N. C.; Treasurer is David S. Templeton, Clinton, S. C.; Secretary is Daniel M. Roberts, Jr., Orangeburg, S. C.; Historian is Richard B. Stall, Greenville, S. C.; Warden is Thomas M. Barnett, Atlanta, Ga.; Chaplain is James H. Barnhardt, Jr., Charlotte, N. C. John Morrison, Atlanta, Ga., has been named Pledge Master. Beta Chapter has been named winner of a plaque for having the greatest percentage of membership participating in a recent drive for underprivileged children of the Clinton area. In the chapter, 95 o/o of total membership contributed to the drive, which collected well over its set goal, enabling more children to enjoy Christmas. Beta has set for itself a new goal: higher scholastic attainment. The scholarly achievement of the members is important and will be improved.

GAMMA-CALIFORNIA HE big news around Gamma chapter this fall is the Theron A. Houser Memorial Award, which is presented annually to the undergraduate chapter showing superior achievement and improvement. We felt supremely honored in receiving this award, and we have set our sights

on higher accomplishment and recognition on campus and in the national organization. The award was presented by Traveling Counselor Bill Dicks, when he visited Gamma chapter early in the term. During his visit we were able to draw on Bill's tremendous experience to help solve some of our problems and to gain new ideas for activities and pledge training. This year we fielded our most successful football team in three years, marking a general upturn in our athletic program; and we are currently far ahead of last year's pace in the intramural point standings. We were able to pledge a fine group of 21 men whom we expect to contribute greatly to the future success and standing of Gamma chapter. Included among the pledges are several high school valedictorians and men with other exceptional qualifications. Our successful rush program was due, in large measure, to the help and support of many interested alumni. The pledges added to the Christmas spirit by decorating the Christmas tree with ornaments of their own making. Each pledge's ornament, with his name on it, will be kept and used year after year to help create a spirit of brotherhood at Christmas time. Also helpful in rush were the girls of our Rose Court, led by our Rose, Miss Kathy Howe of Chi Omega. One of the girls on the court, Miss Chris Viktor, was a candidate in the Big Game Queen contest. Gamma chapter will suffer a great loss in the spring quarter when Richard Bartel transfers to Chico State College, where he hopes to start a colony of our fraternity. We are greatly concerned about how we will manage without the sage counsel of Richard (or Beastie, as he is affectionately known). In memory of our dear brother, we will establish the Beastie Martyr Award, commemorating his numerous sacrifices and acts of martyrdom in the service of the fraternity and his brothers. The award is to be presented at appropriate times to brothers who carry on in the Beastie tradition of extraordinary service and a continued willingness to take the jobs that no one else will do.

EPSILON-DAVIDSON HE brothers of Epsilon Chapter are hopefully awaiting the opening of formal rush at the beginning of second semester. At the same time there has been much successful effort toward the overall improvement of the chapter. Pi Kapps are on the move at Davidson. Two seniors, Chip Robertson and Hamp Morris, were recently elected to Phi Beta Kappa, and Chip was selected for Who's Who in American Colleges and Universities. Mike Powell, our rush chairman, is president of the Junior Class, and senior Charles Taylor leads the Davidson ROTC unit as brigade commander. Pi Kapps have held their share of positions on the dean's list, and the chapter as a whole rated third on campus scholastically-ranking above the all-men's average. The 16-man pledge class of last year somewhat belatedly received the Best Pledge Class Trophy this fall. These sophomores show signs of even greater achievement as brothers. John Flowers, Mac Fiddner, Ben Martin, and Peach Coleman all held positions on the varsity soccer team this fall. The 54 brothers at Davidson were highly honored to have had chosen from our chapter two of the seven Pi Kapp Scholars for this year. The chapter is extremely proud of Ramp Morris and Chip Robertson-not only for their scholastic success, but also for their concern and tangible contributions in fraternity affairs. Formal rush at Davidson begins with a series of parties the first week in February, with informal rush in effect all first semester. Under the leadership of rush chairman Powell, there has been a conscious effort on the part of the chapter to get out and meet the freshmen and visit them in the dormitories. A great deal depends on rush this year, and the chapter is anticipating no small amount of success.

On November 4 the fraternity, under University sanction, left for Blowing Rock, N. C., for a two day social. On Friday we introduced our Rose, for this was the Rose Ball Weekend, one we shall never forget. It was both fraternally constructive and socially unsurpassed. Miss Patricia Jack is the girl Mu Chapter deemed worthy of the honor to be Rose. Rush is now! We have a highly organized approach with "rush teams" of 10 men each. Coordination in an intensive rush pattern is the result. Our hopes are high and the finest men are in our sights.

XI-ROANOKE

HIS semester has been an especially busy one for the men of Xi Chapter. In addition to many present activities (social, extracurricular, and otherwise), we have planned many activities for next semester which will require extensive planning. Our primary on-campus activities include intramural sports and the "Viet Nam Project." At the present time, we hold the position of second toward the intramural championship. With speedball and cross-country completed, basketball is the next item of interest. Also, our full support has been pledged for the "Viet Nam Project" presently being conducted on campus. This project involves collecting used clothes and other small miscellaneous objects. At the culmination of the drive, the student government will ship these articles to needy families in VietNam. The most noteworthy event which took place within the realm of Xi Chapter was the initiation of Congressman Richard H . Poff. The ceremony was conducted on November 18. This event not only fulfilled the dream of a 40-year pledge, but also afforded many alumni an opportunity to re-unite. The month of December as always proved to be one of the busiest. The major items of interest were the Xi-Lites and the Founder's Day Dance. On December 10, the results of many hours of hard work were fulfilled when the chapter publication, Xi-Lites, was released. We attempted to include items which would interest present members and alumni alike. On the same date, we celebrated our Founder's Day with a semi-formal dance. It was decided to combine dances and make this the Sweetheart dance also. It was a weekend ·which will be remembered for many years to come. Lastly, and uppermost in our present thoughts, is our new chapter house. Present plans show occupation during mid-semester break, in late January. It will house 42 men and have a suite for the housemother. Each of the two dormitory floors have a lounge with a fireplace. The basement floor has a large recreation room and kitchen facilities. Needless to say, the cost is much mo1·e than we alone can afford (despite school aid). For this reason we have been asking for alumni aid. We are grateful for the help thus received and would be deeply appreciative of any further support.

SIGMA-SOUTH CAROLINA IGMA Chapter at South Carolina got the fall semester off to a good start this year by pledging 21 men. The new pledges, comprising one of the largest groups in recent years, come from as fa1· away as Connecticut and Hawaii . Philip Glennon, a sophomore from Mystic, Conn., was elected pledge president. Beginning a new tradition at Carolina, Sigma this year awarded its first Carolina Spirit Awards. These awards, in the form of trophies, are presented to the sorority, the fraternity, and the independent organization which show the best spirit during the football season. The awards are based on participation at pep rallies and games, and use of banners, posters and other means of promoting school spirit. Paul Dietzel, new head football coach at Carolina, expressed his appreciation of Sigma's program and the new spirit on campus. Sigma was proud to learn this fall that Brother Daun van Ee has been selected one of seven Pi Kapp Scholars from throughout the country. Daun is past archon of

TAU-N. C. STATE AU Chapter of Pi Kappa Phi, along ~itb the oth~r social fraternities here at North Carolma State Umversity, underwent many progress.ive changes as a res?lt of the studies and recommendations of the Fratermty Study Commission, appointed by Chancellor John T. Caldwell and Henry Turlington, past IFC president. These changes were in five areas of chapter operation: rush· financial organization; social, educational and schoiarship programs; pledge education and alumni organization; and internal organizati?n. Some of the major changes were m the areas of rush, finance and academic requirements. As of next fall, no student can be pledged unless he has a 2.0 average with at least 12 hours credit. Financially, a fraternity cannot be more than $1,000 in debt, ?~" else social restrictions will be imposed. One well rece1ved change was the new rule that placed the minimum overall average a house could make at 2.0. Tau Chapter is sorry to report that our adviser, Brother Tommy Saieed, has moved to Charlotte, North Carolina where he has a new job. Tommy did an excellent job whil~ with us in assisti~g and guiding us i~ o~r chapter operation. We wish him the best of luck m his new job. Tommy's new address is 2810 Malibu Drive, Charlotte, orth Carolina. We have made a concentrated effort in the past year to increase the active membership of our Alumni Association. In May, a buffet supper and reorganizational meeting was held with Governor Dan K. Moore as guest speaker. Response was strong, and another buffet supper and meeting followed in September. New officers were elected and various projects and goals were established. Another meeting is planned for February. Pi Kappa Phi alumni are always welcome to visit us whenever they are in town. Tau Chapter has been fortunate in having several spirited and successful athletic te~ms th_is semester. We are proud of our golf team wh1ch fimshed strong eighth, this year. Our track an~ .field team also r:an eighth out of the 17 social fratermtJes on campus, wh1ch was extremely good for us. This semester the fighting Pi Kapps of Tau Chapter had one of the best football seasons in histot·y. Our overall record was six wins and one loss, with the loss coming in the quarter finals of the playoffs. The offensive team accumulated an average of 30 points per game while our defense held our opponents' average to six points per game. With a loss of only four team members in May, next season looks very promising. At present our volleyball and bowling teams are doing very well. Our volleyball team has a record of five wins and one loss with only the playoffs left to go. A strong bowling team has totaled 14 points against two points loss for the four matches it has played. Last year· Rose Ball was at the Morehead-Biltmore Hotel. We were pleased to crown Miss Anne Dulin as our Rose Queen for 1966. She is a Meredith College junior majoring in business, and is pinned to Brother Leon Joyner. On July 16 the Pi Kapps of Tau Chapter converged once again upon their chapter house for the annual Summer Party. Boys came from all directions to be here for what is probably one of the best weekends all year. James T and the Catalinas played that night to provide a most memorable evening. The semester has also been filled with many outstanding social events. Something big thi~ fall has been theme parties. We have had two that we Will not forget shortly: a Saigon Party and a Roaring '20's Party. To both these parties, the boys wore appropriate costumes that they managed to pick up from vanous places. The house was also appropriately decorated e.ach time to pt·ovide the right atmosphere for a good t1me. Saving the best for last, Homceoming was a particularly great time for us. After a week of hard work, Tau

All are good men and will contribute a great deal to ~he house. Thus Psi will continue to improve, grow, and hve up to the high ideals set forth by our founding fathers.

OMEGA-PURDUE HE men of Omega Chapter have gone through four months of success and prosperity in this school year. The chapter has been involved in many activities of note on the campus, and the brothers have been involved in everything from sports to student govern~ent . There has also been the usual intense work on the mternal organization of the chapter. Last year 34 men were pledged, and 23 of them were initiated this fall. The new initiates have proven to have all the qualities which the chapter holds to be sacred. During the fall Omega chapter sponsored many social events. Among them were many trade parties with various sororities on campus. In October the annual pledge dance was held. Its theme was "Haunted House," and it was a smashing success. In September the chapter cosponsored an all-campus dance called the "Island Fling." And throughout the fall many events were held on football weekends for parents and alums of Omega chapter. There have been many activities involving the brothers. Bill Griffiths and Tom LeFevre are active in the Purdue Glee Club which entertained at various functions in California at the Rose Bowl. Bill is also a member of the Purdue Gimlet Club one of the highest honoraries at the University. Many other brothers are involved in campus activities including representatives on the student newspaper, athletic teams, the interfraternity council, and others. Results of recent chapter elections are: archon, Tom Pearson· secretary, Bob Geyer; treasurer, Jack Strang; historia~, Bob Hunt; chaplain, Paul Jefferis; and steward, John Meyer. Omega planned a trip to California over the. Christmas holidays to support the Purdue football team m the Rose Bowl. Reservations for the entire chapter were made on the plane and for the same hotel. A highlight of last spring was the chapter's team placing second in the hotly contested Purdue Grand Prix go-cart race.

ALPHA EPSILON-FLORIDA HIS is the form Jetter sent to all incoming freshmen by Alpha Epsilon Chapter at the University of Florida: Dear Rushee, Now you are considering a fraternity-Pi Kappa Phiin which you will spend the next four years of your life. There are 27 fraternities at Florida. Each one has its own personality and its own characteristics. After having looked at a few it will be up to you to decide what you want in a fraternity and then to find the one that has it. The first thing you will want is friendship-Pi Kappa Phi is known as the friendly fraternity, not only at Florida but wherever Pi Kapps are. (There are six Pi Kapp chapters in Florida, at every major college.) You'll want comfortable surroundings where you can study, have fun, relax, and develop sense of ownership. Our air-conditioned chapter house is the most unique, modern, and well equipped on campus. I am sure that in Pi Kappa Phi you will find mo1·e of the things that a fraternity is supposed to be than at any other house at the University of Florida. Sincerely, Bing Michael Archon

Original articles by first brother "Red" Russell and initiating officer Leo Pou of Mobile plus reprints of articles from the December, 1926, issue of The Star and Lamp appear in the section. Another successful rush was held this September at Alpha Iota. Beginning with two days of open house, four rush days of band nights, model racing, pool parties, barbeques, and bull sessions followed. For the two band nights allowed by the Interfraternity Council, Alpha Iota featured the best popular bands on campus-"The Tams" and "Slim Harpo." Saturday morning brought the pledging of 30 boys, including many sophomores. Social events for the quarter included, of course parties following all the home football games plus partie~ following the Auburn-Tennessee and Auburn-Alabama games in Birmingham. A tea honoring the colonization of Alpha Chi Omega Sorority at Auburn was held on Sunday, November 13, at the house. Both Pi Kapps and Alpha Chis considered the tea a great success. The favorite social event of the quarter was the annual Christmas Party. The fact that the function was held during finals on December 10 did not subdue the spirit of any of our brothers and pledges. Santa Claus this year was played by Brother John McClure of Mobile who did an excellent job in the grand entrance of Santa and his reindeer into the house, in the presentation of gifts and in the brother-pledge skit that followed. The party as always exemplified Alpha Iota's reverence for tradition.

ALPHA XI-BROOKLYN POLY GARY Brewer may never join a fraternity, but his heart will always be with the brothers of Pi Kappa Phi. This semester Alpha Xi chapter adopted Gary, a sixth grader from the impoverished Appalachian hills. It is hoped that Gary's association with the chapter will not only aid him financially, but add to his mental and spiritual growth. While Alpha Xi was seeking to aid the less fortunate it was sparing no mercy to others at the Polytechnic In~ stitute of Brooklyn. In the past year, first place trophies for football, softball, pool, bowling, and track have been added to the chapter 1·ooms. In the only other major sports events-volleyball, basketball, and swimming, Pi Kapps placed a close second. This year Alpha Xi will retire the all-a1·ound school I.F.C. Sports Trophy, having won it for the third straight year. Sports, however, is not the only field in which Alpha Xi excels. Of the 10 pledges initiated in the Spring '66 semester, seven have ranked high on the dean's honor list. Four Pi Kapps sit on the 12 man Student Council, two more on the nine man Student Activities Council and five more hold major positions as their respectiv~ class officers. As Alpha Xi strives to change its status from that of a Master Chapter to that of a Champion Master Chapter the national organization has kept careful watch over it~ progress. This semester National Executive Secretary Durward Owen and Traveling Counselor Bill Dicks visited the chapter. It is hoped that they have gained as much as we have from their visit, and as much as we hope Pi Kapps all over the country have.

ALPHA OMICRON-IOWA STATE LPHA Omicron has a new chapter advisor. Warren Madden, an alumnus of Alpha Omicron, returned to Iowa State this fall as contracts and grants officer for the university.

'68, 1·epresented the chapter by turning over the fraternity's check to Richard Pheneger, instructor in the telecommunicative arts department, in a formal ceremony November 10. The first large function on campus this fall was

PI KAPP ON C Campus Chest, a student fund drive for charity. The active brothers gladly participated by selling a serenading pledge class at the auction. Parent's Day came October 8 and provided many parents with the opportunity to see the house for the first time and to meet the people their sons are living with. The parents as well as the brothers enjoyed the football game because of the fine weather and the unexpected victory. Upon returning from the game, all concerned were happy to find one of Mrs. Lee's (our cook now for 16 years) delicious buffets awaiting them. Homecoming dawned cold and rainy, but this didn't stop the brothers or the many alums present from having an enjoyable afternoon. Although we lost, the football game was interesting, and, with the addition of a few well placed spirits, no one seemed to mind the cold. Alpha Omicron's intramural football team was undefeated until their last game when they lost a close one to the fraternity champs. We are fielding three basketball teams this winter and anticipate a good season. Last spring, Alpha Omicron took first place in its class in the Veishea parade. The float "The Meeting of the Transcontinental Railroads" was fully animated with two moving trains and several animated people. The trophy now holds a proud position on top of our trophy case.

ALPHA SIGMA-TENNESSEE LPHA Sigma is on the move. After initiating four new men last year, we held a tremendously successful retreat in Gatlinburg, Tenn., at which new officers were elected and the entire chapter was re-evaluated as to effectiveness of operations in all fields. The new initiates are: Richard Brooks, Carthage, Tenn.; Mike Berney, Knoxville, Tenn.; Nelson Rowland, Surgoinsville, Tenn.; and Mike Wilds, Maryville, Tenn. The new officers are: archon, Frank M. Pugh; treasurer, Terence A. Sullivan; secretary, C. Nelson Rowland; warden, G. Michael Wilds; historian, Peter E. Bishop; and chaplain, Gary Breedlove. After returning from the retreat, Alpha Sigma began the most successful quarter of the school year. Led by Rush Chairman Richard Brooks, we pledged seven fine men: Dave Sneed, Terry Crossland, Barry Coco, Phil Holt, David Heckert, Roger Eichelburger, and Jerry Duke. In the annual college bowl competition, patterned after the popular TV program, Alpha Sigma's team, composed of Brothers Pete Bishop, Charlton DeVault, Richard Rucker, and Terry Sullivan, took second place, losing the final game by only 10 points. This fine showing is a tribute to the persistence of Scholarship Chairman Charlton DeVault, whose constant cries of "Quiet Hours" have driven everyone from the house, perchance to study, perchance to sleep, perchance to dream, etc. In any event, Brother DeVault has embarked on a new program designed to raise scholarship by having each active brother bring in all of his tests and quizzes that he accumulates during a quarter and placing them in appropriately marked folders in a new filing cabinet expressly for that purpose. Athletics have not been forgotten at Alpha Sigma. After a rather frustrating year of intramurals, we swept to victory in the interfraternity track meet, the first time we had ever entered this event. Our men placed in just about every event they entered, and three Pi Kapps emerged as individual winners in their specialties: Terry Crossland in the 220, Nelson Rowland in the 880, and Bob Haun in the mile. Alpha Sigma has not neglected community affairs, either. Early one Sunday morning, the Pi Kapps joined forces with the Kerbala Temple Shriners to sell newspapers for the benefit of the crippled children for whom the Shriners do so much fine work. For four hours, we banged on doors, stood in the middle of the highway at intersections, and generally begged, pleaded, and cajoled for money for the Children's Hospital. At the end of this time, we had collected over $160, the sincere gratitude of the Shriners, and the warm feeling which comes from helping someone less fortunate than your-

self. Because all those who took part really themselves, more projects of this type are being for next year. fined Not all of Alpha Sigma's activities have been c.on rO" to athletic and scholastic pursuits. A vigorous social ;hiP gram has been carried on under the excellent leader sfUI of Social Chairman John Haralson. The most succp:rtY• event of the spring was the annual Shipwreck d their held off-campus, which found the Pi Kapps an tieS, dates dressed as shipwrecked sailors, bathing be~u the old salts, and Hawaiian dancers. Participation 1 war, annual Greek Week was highlighted by the tug-oC-ncer the pie-eating contest, and collecting for the 8 Fund with Delta Zeta and Sigma Nu. . . tronl A highlight of last Spring Quarter was a v1s1t rnni, Brother Durward Owen who, along with several al~tion set down the groundwork for a new alumni assobcl con· and plans for a new house which, we hope, will. e in· structed in the near future. All alumni are cordl!IJ!~ 111 a, vited to drop in and spend some time with Alpha £01ge to join with us in building and growing as we ahead to bigger and better things. l

PI KAPP ON CAMpUS Pi K1 quickly talked the Russians into helping him end the feud by carrying on the hoax. Finally, the still was put together and the feud ended. Elmer and Julie married and the story, as always, ended happily. As for the Russians, well, they were taken back to Russia as national heroes for being the first people on the Moon-as we all know, the Russians never fail at any of their exploits.

ALPHA PHI-ILLINOIS TECH ALPHA Phi has made long-awaited improvements in its chapter house during the summer. The basement of the house, which was previously just a barren utility room, was transformed into a beautifully decorated party and recreation room. The bare concrete walls were covered with wood paneling, exposed pipes were covered by a suspended ceiling, and a section of the basement was made into a chapter room. The basement also has a bar, a new pool table, and a trophy case. The chapter owes its thanks to the expert craftsmanship of Brother Ken Yost, who designed and built the basement practically by himself. There are few professional contractors who could exceed his quality of workmanship. This fall Alpha Phi has 19 pledges whose home towns range from West Fargo, North Dakota, to Carouso, Netherlands Antilles. Recently the pledges have been working on their class dance, one of the chapter's best social events during the fall semester. On campus the Pi Kapps have made an outstanding showing. In scholarship, the house grade point average for the spring semester was third among the nine fraternities at I. I. T. Peggy Normile, the 1966 Rose Queen, was chosen queen of the annual Interfraternity Ball. In sports, the Pi Kapps netted a first in I. F. golf and a second in tennis. Finally, the semester was highlighted by a visit by our newly-elected National President Kim Jepsen to speak at the chapter's Founders' Day banquet on December 10. Alpha Phi feels that it has had a successful spring and fall semester and is looking forward to greater challenges and accomplishments in 1967.

ALPHA PSI-INDIANA LPHA Psi is doing well in its second yea1· in its A new house with Dave Gibson as advisor and Chris Aichele as Archon. Frank Parrish is on campus as a graduate student and has been helping the chapter. John Davis has been visiting Alpha Psi to aid in the continued rush program designed to bring in at least 20 of Indiana University's best prospective pledges. The chapter took second place in the Homecoming parade with its float entitled "Johnny Applepont: Mighty Victories from Little Footballs Grow." The coed sponsor was Alpha Xi Delta. The intramural football team had good potential but was hampered by several injuries to its leading players. Under the direction of its president, Rod Frazier, the pledge class sponsored a very successful car wash in conjunction with the Alpha Phi pledges. Another pledge, Terry Wilson, has transformed one of Alpha Psi's storerooms into a much-used weight room. Politically (particularly "Republicanly") Alpha Psi has become active this year. Brother Scott Evenbeck was elected last year as a Director of the I. U. Young Republican Club. Brother Bill Reiners was recently named to a steering committee in the Mid-western Y. R. Club. The brothers and pledges of Alpha Psi were guests of Omega chapter for the Indiana-Purdue Old Oaken Bucket game. The weekend was a great success even though the other team up the Monon trounced upon Indiana. Wait till next year! The chapter enjoyed a tree-trimming party with Delta Zeta and the annual Christmas Ball which was under the direction of Brother Gene Freeman. There was a large turnout for the buffet Alpha Psi gave for parents and alumni after the Michigan State game. Steward John Peterson and Mel Webster prepared for this successful event. An alumni meeting was held after the buffet at which Ken Inman of Indianapolis was elected President.

BETA DELTA-DRAKE DRING the past year 15 undergraduate members were suspended for failUI·e to live up to their financial responsibilities and to show "a common loyalty which transcends any personal selfishness" as outlined in the creed. This loss in addition to the graduating members left Beta Delta with only seven undergraduate brothers. These men want to work to rebuild the chapter to its previous stature and beyond. An intensive rush, with the help of Alpha Omicron chapter from Iowa State, netted 13 pledges of extremely high quality. The 1·ush emphasized the transition of the chapter's purpose from parties to that of high scholastic achievement in step with the demands of a modern university. An additional emphasis was placed on constructive ideas with the aim of integrating the fraternity with the members' total learning experience. Internal reorganization on the part of our treasurer, Larry Duncan, has stabilized the financial basis of the fraternity an d 1·educed our debts by over $2,000 during the first three months of this school year. All this was accompli shed without detracting from our social and athletic p1·ograms. A further transformation makes the Bedeltian your newsletter. Its purpose is to keep you up to date on your classmates and the chapter. Its value is obvious. But first, we must receive the information. Such news as marriages and children, jobs and promotions, vacations and hobbies should be sent to the chapter (3420 Kingman Boulevard). Its effectiveness depends upon your contribution. We are anxiously awaiting news from you for the next issue. But this is merely a beginning. The new direction of the chapter is toward the future. With your support we are assured a speedy journey along this path, and the success of Beta Delta will be a reality that all Pi Kapps may be proud of.

BETA ETA-FLORIDA STATE

rf Eta HE fa ll trimester has been a prosperous one for Beta chapter at Florida State University.

Among the many honors and awards received by the brothers during this term are: Don Chao, Richard Hall and Jack Sipperley tapped into Gold Key, which honor~ those who have exemplified the ideals of leadership, service and scholarship on campus. Representing Beta Eta in Who's Who Among Students in Ame1·ican Unive1·sities and Colleges are Randy Plotts, Jeff Wright, Jack Sipperley, and Gerry Chmielewski. Wing commander of Air Force ROTC and brigade commander of Army ROTC are Richard Hall and Don Chao, respectively. In schola1·ship Sid Wilson was selected outstanding scholar of the Junior Class with a 3.8 overall grade point average as well as being a member of Student Senate and the Faculty Traffic Commission. Paul Regensdorf was elected president of Phi Eta Sigma, freshman men's scholastic honorary, to Sophomore Men's Judiciary and was secretary of I.F.C. Jim Main was honored as the outstanding student in engineering science. Bob Brandewie, president of the fall pledge class was elected to the position of Freshman Class senator: Greg Bustle served as chairman of the Rally Committee which was in charge of planning all school spirit events. Pi Kapps on major student government committees include: Randy Jobson, Frank Borzen, Phil Wegele, and Jeff Wright. Brother Wright also is the executive secretary to the student body president, chairman of the Homecoming Parade and a member of Phi Alpha social welfare fraternity. The chapter is proud of its many prominent athletes who contribute externally on the gridiron and court as well as internally to the brotherhood. Senior starting

PI KAPP oN cAMpus Pi tackle Larry Kissam received the Tomahawk award for exceptional offensive play. Mike Gray caught many passes as a split end for the Baby Seminole freshman team. Representing Beta Eta on the hardcourt are Jeff Hogan, a tarting varsity guard, and Herb . Rapp, a promising freshman who also hopes to be e1ther the number one or two man on the tennis team after basketball season. Paul DeZeeuw of South Africa again will play the number one position on the varsity tennis team with Roberto Marcher and Randy Jobson giving him a run for his money at that spot. Scott Bristol and AI Procopio are top-ranked on the freshman squad. The officers who led the chapter during the fall trimester were: archon, Marvin Bass; treasurer, Jeff Wright; secretary, Dave Stodd~rd; historian, Paul Nichols; warden, Bob Orr; chaplam, Buz McCall. Beta Eta initiated 18 new brothers into the chapter in September. Each has contributed much t?ward conti_nuing the high ideals established by the nat10nal orgamzation. Many have already shown their leadership potential by being elected to chapter offices and various. campus organizations. Twenty-one new pledges chos~ P1 Kappa Phi as their fratermty at FSU . Beta Eta IS proud of these men and looks forward to pledging more as the trimester progresses. The chapter has instituted a new project which it hopes will become a tradition in the years to c~me. O!le Saturday morning the brothers, pledges and L1ttle Sisters took 30 orphan children to see a special matinee movie feature. After the movie everyone returned to the house for lunch. Hugh Buerke, a performer for FSU's Flying High Circus, dressed in a clown outfit and entertained the children with magic tricks and later presented each one a Christmas present. This year Beta Eta has 26 members in its Little Sisters of the White Diamond organization. These girls have assisted the chapter during fall rush by taking an active part in the program itself. The Little Sisters represent 10 of 19 sororities plus many independents. They carry and p1·omote the image of Pi Kappa Phi wherever they go on campus. Among the many activities they have taken upon themselves for the chapter's benefit are: a Halloween party for brothers and pledges; helped decorate the house's Christmas tree; served dinner on many occasions; and held a tea for the alumni wives at Homecoming. Beta Eta is proud of its Little Sisters. of th_e White Diamond and looks forward to the Sprmg tnmester when it will again share more social functions with them. Beta Eta has now received architectural plans for a new three story fraternity house with an underground parking garage. The cost will be in the neighborhood of $300,000. Work has already begun on securing this long needed house. Homecoming was a busy time for Beta Eta. T~e chapter buill its float with Delta Delta Delta soronty, and while the float did not win first place, everyone agreed that it was fun and a tremendous effort. Twenty-eight alumni and their wives showed up for FSU's 28-0 trouncing of Wake Forest. A buffet dinner was served before the game and later in the afternoon the annual business meeting was held at National Treasurer Charles Tom Henderson's home. The Nation Rockin' Shadows played for the combo pat·ty that night at the house, and on Sunday the weekend was topped off with a picnic at Wakulla Springs. In January, after FSU's football team returned from playing Wyoming in the Sun Bowl, Beta Eta held a reception at the house honorjng _the team. members, the varsity football coaches, the1r WIVes, Pres1dent and Mrs. ,John Champion, and other distinguished faculty members. Elections are also a major function of the Spring trimester. This year, besides entering many brothers and pledges in the ~ace for offices, the chapter will support Mel Smith, an mdependent, for student body pres1dent. Pi Kappa Phi at Florida State founded the University Party which will nominate Mel. Beta Eta will be called on to plan rallies, give serenades, and distribute campaign material.

BETA XI-CENTRAL MICH.

BETA CHI-EAST TEXAS

Xi had the pleasure of a visit from Traveling outCounselor John Davis this fall. He straightened us as on a few problems and was quite helpful in th~ many p/ects of fraternity life. We were also honored w1th the Ofesence of our National President Kim Jepson for one our rush parties. Bethe t.heme of our homecoming this year was "Fiesta!" Pte a X1, along with the sisters of Alpha Gamma Del~a, th sented a float portraying a Spamsh courtyard with e sl?gan "No Siesta During Fiesta!" . ''L~s In the past two years Beta Xi has held Its annual ti ~ttle. 500," a tricycle race that attracts plenty of par~:'Pation from other Greek organizations on ~ampus. ~t Year the race will be held open to the dorm1tones. and ur Snow Carnival, sponsored by the local newspaper sno Beta Xi, was cancelled last year because of lack of w but was scheduled this year for January 13 and 14.

USH, rush, rush, and so Beta Chi has been do!ng since the beginning of the semester. Not overlookmg the real men's rush, the brotherhood pledged 17 men, who have added much in developing themselves as future brothers. Preceding formal rush, six men were honored to join the brotherhood on September 16. They were: Mike Anglin, Commerce; ~ike Ashner, Dallas· Sid Christian, Denison; Tommy Dixon, Dallas; Mike Faukner, Bonham; and Greg Richards, Camp Hill, Pennsylvania. At Homecoming the brothers and pledges combined their efforts to produce a winner in the float competition. Even though it wasn't first place, a third was heartily welcomed for the many hours spent. Backing the "Big Blue" with the well known Victory Bell and full attendance, E.T.S.U. pulled out a 10-7 win over Howard Payne. As usual a Pi Kapp came through as the winning factor. Pledge Mike Venable, middle linebacker, intercepted a pass on E.T.'s fi.ve yard line with 15 seconds in the game to wrap up a Homecoming victory. That night, the "Other Half" provided the music for the party. The chapter was privileged to have as its guest Traveling Counselor Bill. Dick~ ~uring Homecoming ~eek and at Homecoming. Besides givmg the brotherhood 1deas about improvement in the chapter, he pt·oved to be an excellent "napkin twister" for building floats . Intramurals found the Pi Kapps near the cellar in football, but leading the pack in volleyball. The latest wins include victories over Delta Tau Delta and Lambda Chi Alpha. If the winning trend continues, a championship isn't far off. One bright note about football: Brother Olen Pyles was selected to the Greek All-Stars and participated in the Greek-Independent game. Unfortunately, the pledge class challenged the brothers to a football game. This in turn gave rise to the first Diamond Bowl game, but as the story goes, the good guys won. The final score-Brothers 42, Pledges 18. The affair has been termed annual, so next year the pledges will have another chance and a new bowl queen. This year the pledges presented the flowers and trophy to the queen as part of the halftime program. One of the pledge class projects for the semester is the erecting of a new sign outside the house with all of the artistic part being handled by the pledge class. Somewhere in that complex organization lies a Rembrandt. Getting a strong turnout from both the sororities and fraternities, the third annual Pi Kapp Bowling Tournament was a complete success, financially and from the standpoint of promoting Greek relations. On the other side of the tournament, the pledges sold cold drinks as a project to help their financial status, In the social column, such "sophisticated" gatherings as the second annual Hut Party were held earlier in the semester, followed by an Ice Cream Party given by the p ledge class for the brothers, and our Christmas Party where brothers and pledges exchanged gifts. Also, the social calendar would not have been complete without a New Year's Eve Party to welcome the new year 1967. Pi Kapps on campus include Brother Kenneth Pearce and Pledge Mike Venable as starting defensive stalwarts who played a big part in E.T.S.U. winning the Lone Star Conference. Others include Brothers Sid Christian, student senator; Mike Anglin, student center affairs director; Dennis Jones, cheerleader; Jim Mymern, vicepresident of IFC.

BETA PSI- TENNESSEE WESLEYAN

HE year began on a bright note for Beta Psi with a new addition to the house decorations in the form of a banner proclaiming Beta Psi as a National Champion Chapter. This award, presented at the 31st Supreme Chapter meeting in Miami Beach, has encouraged the brotherhood to begin the year with a working, eager attitude. Another occurrence at Supreme Chapter w~ich Beta Psi'ers are extremely proud of was the appomtment of Brother John Eckman as president of District XIV. Brother Eckman is largely responsible for the chapter's rating nationally through his work as our faculty advisor.

PI KAPP ON CAM With several brothers returning to campus over a week before classes began, work began immediately on house repairs and improvements. Repainting the exterior and part of the interior, re-upholstering some pieces of furniture, and adding carpeting to two rooms has given an extra boost to the feeling of pride in the house's appearance. Several brothers were also given the opportunity to show their carpentry ability in the construction of a new bar in the dining room and a window seat for the living room. "Hey look us over" became the theme song of Pi Kappa Phi for fall rush, and, evidently, 23 men liked what they saw as they arrived at the house with the yellow shutters on the night of formal pledging. Since choosing Pi Kappa Phi, these men have shown their desire to become real Pi Kapps through diligent work and interest. Two undergraduates and a member of Wesleyan's faculty have been initiated into Beta Psi since the return to campus this fall. Larry Booher, Byron Harmon, and Leo Sabota are now proving to be valuable additions to the brotherhood. The chapter is especially proud of Brother Sabota, a former Naval jet aviator, a Phi Beta Kappa member at the University of Minnesota, and now head of Wesleyan's political science department. Pi Kapps are still having "more fun than people" at Tennessee Wesleyan. Features of this fall's social life have been a Lake Party held near Watt's Bar Dam, our annual Autumn Ball held at the Green Meadow Country Club in Maryville, Tennessee, and a Christmas party (complete with Santa giving out favors to all the brothers' and pledges' dates) held at the Pi Kapp house. One of the highlights of the fall for Beta Psi was being selected to send a ritual team to Western Carolina College for the initiation and chartering of Gamma Epsilon chapter. Brothers Don Moore, Joe Eldridge, Joel Jones, Lewis Adams, Don Nation, and Don Best spent November 11 and 12 in Cullowhee, North Carolina, where 26 brothers and a new chapter were added to the ranks of Pi Kappa Phi. Several Pi Kapps have won honors which deserve mention. Those elected to Wesleyan's student government and their offices are: Joe Eldridge, vice president of the Senior Class; Charles Sweat, male representative of the Senior Class; Mike (D. A.) Ray, male representative of the Junior Class; Don King, president of the Sophomore Class; Don Best, male representative of the Sophomore Class; and pledge Steve McArthur, male representative of the Freshman Class. Three Pi Kapps have been honored by induction into Delta Kappa, Wesleyan's honor fraternity for men. Brothers Joe Eldridge, Don Moore, and Charles Sweat are to be commended for their selection to this organization which has a present total membership of only 10 men . Joe Eldridge, Don Moore, Don Best, and Steve McArthur were recently selected as TWC Ambassadors, a group of seven male and seven female students who work with the admissions department as recruiters in area high schools. Wesleyan's debate program is headed by brother John Eckman, Beta Psi's faculty advisor, and Archon Moore, president of the debate society, with brother Don Shrader also serving on the debate team. Pi Kapps have continued to become better known throughout the Athens community as well as on campus with varied service projects. Several smaller projects were carried out with much success, but the largest project was a Thanksgiving Food Drive. Thanks to the fine organizational work of Brothers Roger Cass and Tim Goodman and the efforts of all the brothers and pledges, over 1,300 pounds of food were collected and distributed to needy families in Athens. Another football season has ended, but there is still no trophy resting in the Pi Kapp house. Completing the season with a 4-4 reco1·d, Pi Kapps again showed their true spirit of competition, even in defeat. Brothers Ray Ibbersen and Byron Harmon are to be commended for their leadership as coach and quarterback. The success of activities this fall has made all the brothers and pledges eager for winter quarter's events. Outstanding features looked forward to by Pi Kapps in-

held in el ude the annual winter p lanning ret reat to )le d and Gatlinburg and the cam p u s-w ide All-Sing origmate coordinated by Pi Kappa P hi. M

GAMMA BETA-OLD DOMINION

HE men of Gamma Beta chapter have once again proved themselves indeed both worthy and extreme~y proud of their renewed status as a Master ~hapte:r; m Pi Kappa Phi. The wheel of good fortune spms rapidly around us, as its very center is driven by our indestructible bond of brotherhood. For this bond, exhibited outwardly by Gamma Beta, our chapter is forever grateful, as it permeates our every achievement and guides us along the road of high performance. As the recipient of the Old Dominion College Sc~olar ship Trophy, Gamma Beta currently holds th_e h~ghest quality point average of any other Greek orgamzat1on on campus. In addition, our int~~~;mur~~;l teams capt~ned second place in overall competJt10n-mdeed an enviable record as we have existed only two years on this rapidlygrowing campus. The men of Gamma Beta are also extremely proud of this fall's rush, the high point of which was the publication of our first formal rush pamphlet. After three weeks of good hard .rush and parties galore we recently pledged 26 _men .. Wtth 11: new and improved system of pledge education, signs pomt to an even brighter future for our young chapter. Pi Kapps at Old Dominion also excelled in t_h e publication of their newspaper, The Monm·ch, as It won a fourth place award recently at the 31st Supreme Chapter. Of even greater significance was the work done by our chapter's delegation to the Co!lvention in securing Virginia Beach as the proposed s1te of our 32nd Supreme Chapter ~eet~ng. Br?ther T?m Lewis did a.n exceptionally fine JOb m swaymg the tide of votes to this magnificent conventio~ site, as it will b.e th~ fi!s~ in the history of the fratermty to be located m V1rgm1a. With our fi.ne record of achievement in the fields of scholarship, athletics, rush, publications, and most important, that intangible quality of brotherhood we so strongly possess, we brothers of Gamma Beta Chapter shall continue not only to maintain our high standard, but to raise it even further within the realm of Master Chapter excellence.

GAMMA DELTA- MEMPHIS STATE

HE presence of Pi Kappa Phi was soon known at Memphis State because on our first year on campus we were fourth in scholastic standings with a 1.965 average, which was only .035 point off the top average. Meanwhile the Gamma Delta pledge cla~s set an all time high at Memphis State with the best pledge average and the greatest improvement at a 2.600 clip. Sports seem to have caught our chapter a little off guard except in football, where we were undefeated. Our chapter has been highly recognized at M.S.U. for our great spirit and ever present "never-say-die" attitude. One of our pledges, Richard C. Foster, was chosen to guide the DeMolay Chapter in Memphis. Other honors came when the Pepsi Cola Bottling Company of Memphis contracted with Larry Watson and his band to do regional advertising for the firm. Larry is a charter member of Gamma Delta chapter. The archon of Gamma Delta was recently honored with membership in the 3 Point Club of Memphis State. This award is made by our IFC. Memphis State was recently honored by being voted the site of the best Interfraternity Council in the United States. Our treasurer, Tommy Siebert, is an active member of the M.S.U. IFC and was present in New Orleans to witness the Memphis State presentation. Gamma Delta recently received mention in the Memphis newspaper for our terrific Homecoming display, which was a gigantic "Bat Tiger." The tall tiger stood 20 feet high and was on a platform 30 feet long. The number of members has grown sufficiently at Gamma Delta to a strong 39-man total-21 actives and 18 pledges. 30

Delta Colony captured 13 of the 18 places to be filled on Election Day. Psi Delta Colony's candidate for Miss Golden Bear won by a margin of 228 votes. And the five class offices lost were lost by a total of 20 votes and one of the offices by one vote. Psi Delta Colony now has 55 active members for the first semester. The majority of these men were initiated in the 1965-66 school year. The greater part of the active members are engineering majors due to the engineering orientated program at Tech. The Colony has now pledged nine men for the semester Psi Delta Colony holds to the old saying of "All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy" in its scheduling of soc!al even~s. Christmas Formal is one of the major soc1al functions of the year. The Formal is open to the student body. Publicity this year was kicked off by a decorative sleigh hitched to statue of Tech's Golden Bear on .the MalL T)Je Christmas Formal is the only open Chnstmas function and has been popular with the student body for 41 years. On March 4, 1966 is Psi Delta Colony's annual Open Rhythm Rock. This is the only open rock-n-roll dance that features a well known name band. The Raft Race is the social event which was started last year to take the place of the once esteemed Sadie Hawkins Day. The Raft Race will be held in April along with the Springarama Dance. Last year there wer~ some 46 rafts with competition open only to students of Tech The next raft race will be open to students of other col~ leges. It's the wildest thing since Huckleberry Finn. Psi Delta _Colo~y has overhauled its rushing program. The Colony IS gomg to send out a letter now to the prospective pledges and another at the beginning of the rush season. The Colony has also attempted to make the rushing program a truly more personal thing by rushing nine months of the year instead of the two to three weeks of the rush season. Psi Delta Colony will again attempt to carry the heavy hand in the February elections for Student Council officers, representatives, and Mrs. WVIT. Psi Delta Colony has controlled Student Council for the last eight or 10 years with the exception of last year.

TOM DEEN ts Appointed Assistant Executive Secretary

Development of more experienced and participating alumni will be the initial effort of the Assistant Executive Secretary. This top priority label was established by Durward Owen, the Executive Secretary, immediately upon determining that Tom would be joining the staff. The present National Office structure of an Executive Secretary and two Traveling Counselors is sufficient to meet the needs of the undergraduate segment of the Fraternity but not the alumni. With an able assistant, such as Deen, the Executive Secretary and the entire staff will be much more mobile in their contacts with all members. The Alumni Program will now receive equal attention to that of the Undergraduate. A more intensified and personal service will now be provided the Fraternity and its 25,000 members. The Fraternity is fortunate to have the service of Tom Deen and welcomes him to the administrative staff.
