DELTA ZETA CHAPTER INSTALLED AT APPALACHIAN STATE Appalachian State University, nestled in the ski country of Boone, N . C ., had no nation a I frat ern it i e s u n t i I January 6, 1973. And then there was Delta Zeta Chapter of Pi Kappa Phi. The 8000 student campus, long closed to fraternities, has opened its doors on a limited basis to fraternities and sororities, due mainly to the efforts of Grady Cooper, a Gamma Epsilon (Western Carolina) initiate, who is now Sports Information Director at ASU. Grady, now Chapter Advisor to Delta Zeta Chapter, watched as 34 young men were initiated into Pi Kappa Phi.

John Ki Iby, Jack Butler, Scott Harris, Jo Yelton, Gary Garrison, Danny McKinney, Keith cash.

Mike Kirkpatrick, Eddie Hoffman, Johnny Charlie Overcash, John Morrison, Larry Grist, Anthony, Tim Waugh.

Grady Cooper, Steve Moody, Kevin Eckardt, Amos, Kenny Linens, Greg Honeycutt, Gwyn Greg Young, Mike Mongelli.

Greg Ball, Herb Johnson, David Morgan, Tony field, Larry Christenbury, Wayne Henson, H Hodges, Chuck Beddingfield, Jim Dellinger.

John Davis (Beta Beta - Fla. Southern), former field secretary and hospital administrator from Greenville, S. C., was the chartering officer. David McAllister, Area Governor for Area XIII, was the assistant chartering officer. Initiating teams from Western Carolina and Belmont Abbey College did an excellent job with the Chartering Ritual.

This group of outstanding young men, organized only last year, has done a remarkable job of fulfilling the chartering requirements and, at the same time, helping structure a new Greek system and image at ASU. The Charter Members are: 1

PI KAPPA PHI SCHOLARSHIP FOUNDATION SETS NEW RECORD

~~s H · C'!uncill, initiate of Kappa Chapter at the University of Carolina at Chapel Hill, received his 50th Anniversary olden Legion" certificate at the Delta Zeta chartering banquet. ~sh Councill watched as Jerry Gallups, Director of Alumni Affairs •g t) presented the award. She has three brothers who were 1so members of Kappa Chapter, including former North Carolina overnor Dan Moore.

ames Stump Named Youngest ember of Roanoke College oard of Trustees ,,1 ames S. Stump, Xi Chapr (Roanoke College), as been named to the oard of Trustees of oanoke College. Stump, 1972 graduate of the ollege, is the youngest ember ever elected to e board of this historic irginia school.

•

announcing Stump's lecti.on, President Perry endlg said, "This is a move by the trustees to evelop a clearer understanding of the ideas and leeds of the contemporary student generation." im is a native of Roanoke, Va., and was editor of the chool paper during his college days. He is presently mployed by the Ingersoll Rand Company.

In 1972 the Scholarship Foundation of our fraternity conducted its second annual fund raising campaign among the undergraduate and alumni membership, and the response was extremely rewarding according to Foundation Chairman, Otis R. McCollum. A total of $12,498.23 was raised in 1972.

He attributed this success to the very generous and receptive membership of our fraternity and the very capable efforts of Brother Richard A. Viguerie, President of Richard A. Viguerie and Company, Inc., one of the nation's outstanding direct mai I fund raising firms. Mr. Viguerie is also a Trustee of the Pi Kappa Phi Scholarship Foundation.

A total of 702 Pi Kapps contributed an average of $17.80 each in 1972. The great response of our brothers everywhere to the appeal is a wonderful illustration of the interest and dedication of the members of our fraternity in assisting brothers who need help, according to Brother McCollum.

The Foundation is a bright spot in the future of Pi Kappa Phi and the support of Pi Kapps in furthering its efforts is, indeed, reflected by the record annual drive for funds which attracted donations totaling approximately three times the gifts received in the first campaign in 1971.

The Trustees of the Scholarship Foundation wish to thank each of you that contributed in 1972. In order to conserve the funds that you give, the Foundation does not mail an acknowledgment of individual donations.

Dr. Lonnie Strickland - National Treasurer Speaks:

'RC ta' pe e n

cti

'

1e

)E 11~

A chapter, when you get right down to it, is a business no different from most, consisting of revenue and expenses. The treasurer is typically the second principal officer of the chapter whose duties should be to: first, prepare and follow the chapter approved budget; second,• keep uniform records concerning the financial aspects of the chapter; third, prepare and submit a monthly financial report to the chapter and national; fourth, collect and disburse all chapter moneys; fifth, coordinate and supervise the work of the house manager and Steward; and sixth, serve as director or chairman of the Budget and Finance Committee as well as the House Committee.

•

It is not unusual for a treasurer to be entrusted with the responsibility of controlling a budget in excess of $50,000.

Slackness in the job of the treasurer can result in the quickest of downfalls of the most stable of chapters. He, therefore, must have some knowledge of the "techniques and tools" of financial management. Many chapters feel the treasurer should receive some compensation for his services due to the many hours he must spend if the job is to be done properly.

The role of the treasurer is one of restraining the ever increasing desires of the members

4 I THE STAR AND LAMP

for the more and more money expenditures.

There is a tendancy among all of us to allow our standard of living to continually creep upward. We all want more, we are never satisfied. The purpose of the treasurer is to set a course for the fraternity financially, and then to restrain the chapter when it tries to deviate from the set course. The treasurer, in short, has the unpleasant job of saying NO when the majority is saying YES! The sad part about a treasurer is that few members ever truly recognize the amount of work and the responsibility with which he is entrusted. The treasurer's duties go far past keeping the books ...... He is a manager, not a bookkeeper. There is a lot of difference in the two - Bookkeepers work for managers. The treasurer must organize, coordinate, and plan the proper meshing of the money inputs and outputs. Some of the specific duties to accomplish this:

FORECASTING· The assessment of future conditions to determine their influence on projected activities.

OBJECTIVE SETTING- Determination of the goals of the fraternity.

These in turn serve to guide the direction of the growth.

~0

VO ~r

fe

'ROGRAMMING- The process of tati ng clearly, in writing, the pecific sequence of activities to e followed in reaching objectives nd setting priorities for carrying 1em out. The treasurer must be ble to balance both the long and hort range goals simultaneously. aCHEDULING- After deciding the .,. . . . riority and sequence of activities for btain ing the goals of the fraterA ity, e next step is to schedule the ctivities by putting target dates for 1e accomplishment of each. )EVELOPING POLICIES- One very 11portant duty of the treasurer is to levelop policies that apply to repetitive lecision situations. Policy formulation s one area of the treasurer's responibility that is often overlooked. ,olicies should always be formulated in ght of the objectives of the overall raternity and reviewed in light of what •ffect they will have on the overall hapter. In policy making one must •e fair, firm and consistent. There is o other workable alternative. This dbit of wisdom applies to all policy 1akers as well--not just the treasurer. ;ETTING PROCEDURES- Another duty of reasurer is that of outlining procedures iuch that the program of the fraternity can >e carried out in an organized and standtrdized manner, a procedure being simply an mplemented policy.

~s you can see, the duties and responsibilties of the treasurer are many and varied. ro leave all the work to the treasurer would , ill him. He simply does not have that nuch time; therefore, he has at his disposal several committees to assist him in his anagerial function. The most important the Budget and Finance Committee. A ~ood committee system will: divide the vork properly among your members; get the ~reatest utility from the men involved; and tery important, serve as an educational

experience for your younger members. The Budget and Finance Committee serves in an advisory capacity to the Treasurer and the chapter on financial matters.

I have saved the most important duty of the treasurer to last, and that is, formulating the budget. A budget is merely a financial plan or strategy that shows the time relationship between the cash inflows and outflows. It serves as a guide to direct the chapter in its financial plan as well as provides a gauge to measure how well the financial plan is being followed.

The budget, without question, is the most important document that the· treasurer has in his possession.

Basically there are four steps to formulating a budget. First, the treasurer with the help of the Finance and Budget Committee, makes a list of all expenses associated with the fraternity and classifies them into two groups: fixed and variable. Second, you should obtain an accurate record of the previous years expenses. Third, determine the number of members who will be paying and then divide this number into the total expenses for a per member cost. Fourth, now you must determine if each Brother can live with that high of expenses. If it is too high, the budget must be trimmed. Fifth, after much hagling and compromising, the budget is set and then put before the chapter for approval.

Well, that's all there is to it. I hope that there is at least one thing you have learned and that is, the selection of a chapter treasurer is a matter which should not be taken lightly.

Conclaves Continue

As reported in the last edition of the Star and Lamp, Pi Kappa Phi is totally committed to a "New Way for A New Day" in a series of conclaves designed to help the student chapters better help themselves through group activities.

Since that edition of the magazine went to press, some more pictures from late conclaves have become avai Iable and they are reproduced here for your information and to remind each of you that Pi Kappa Phi is a personal and exciting experience that is better seen and felt than explained in words. ...

PI KAPP'S CAMPUS LEADERS -- In front, Cadet Major Dennis McConnell. Back row, left to right, Cadet Lt. Colonel Dennis Carter, Cadet Lt. Colonel Larry Sapp, Cadet Lt. Colonel Grant Matherly, and Cadet Colonel Craig Samples.

One criteria of a Pi Kappa Phi chapter's value on campus is the leadership its members exert in primary campus activities. Another might be the number of faculty and administration members who claim Pi Kapp ties. By either standard, North Georgia College's Delta Beta chapter can boast being "number 1" on campus.

Being one of four military colleges in the nation, most of NGC's top student offices are in the cadet military brigade. Here the Pi Kapps hold five of the top 10 leadership positions, including the top four command posts.

Cadet Colonel Craig Samples is commander of the 500-man corps, Cadet Lt. Colonel Larry Sapp serves as the brigade executive officer, Cadet Lt. Colonel Dennis Carter is commander of the First Battalion, Cadet Lt. Colonel Grant Matherly commands the Second Battalion, and Cadet Major Dennis McConnell is the commander of Headquarters Company.

These young Pi Kapps are daily responsible for the welfare and discipline of the entire Corps of Cadets.

All five of these men were appointed to their positions on the basis of academic and military excellence, high personal competence, demonstrated leadership ability, and participation in campus-wide activities, which says that they are all very well rounded young men.

Also, all five are recipients of the Distinguished Military Student award, presented by the Military Department to only those students in the upper 25 per cent of the academic class and upper 10 per cent of the m i Iit a ry c Iass.

Since their chartering in May 1971, the chapter~ bolstered its importance on campus through a so~ program of initiating administration and faculty me bers.

John SirnPs. also serves as ritual and scholarship advisor t Larry Dennis serves as the chapter's financial advif Like the members Delta Beta has attracted, chapter itself has been a unique addition to national fraternity. Colonized in February 1970 wit~ members, the colony completed all requirements~ chartering in just three months. Since the initiatiO its first member, Delta Beta has grown to over 61. tive members and was presented the fraternl Champion Master Chapter Award, the highest aw~ at the recent Supreme Chapter meeting in Atl8~ The story is short and simple, North Geofi College's Delta Beta chapter carries their fratef banner high --higher than anyone else.

ALPHA College of Charleston In January of 1972, Alpha was forced to leave its old residence so that the College of Charleston could expand. At first, our future looked dim; we could not find a house , nor could we find temporary quarters. We did manage to hold our meetings at our brothers' apartments.

Through the help of these following alumni, Alpha now has a new house: Dr. Harry W. Freeman, Mr. Charles A. Weinheimer, Sr., Mr. Clyde H. Turner, Mr. Julius E. Burges, Mr. Henry Viohl, and Dr. Ernest Zinkowski .

Our present house, a former hotel, is the only house on campus owned by the fraternity living in it. Ours is also the biggest on campus and in the history of Alpha Chapter. The top two floors serve as apartments for those brothers who wish to live in the house, with one room set aside as a chapter room. The first floor has two large parlors, the Founders Memorial Room, where our medals shall be displayed, a study, and a kitchen.

We are very proud of our new facilities; and at this time, we would like to nationally thank all those who made this possible. Keep up the hard work, Alumni! Our Fraternity needs more men like you!

Presbyterian This year Presbyterian College abandoned the delayed rush system and returned to a more productive first semester rush, with which we were successfu I in pledging 15 men. They showed their Pi Kapp spirit right off by getting out and selling "GO BLUE" buttons during Homecoming as a pledge project which made them about $150. We've also initiated eight new brothers in two ceremonies since the year began.

On October 28, the Area IV Conclave was held at Ernie Zinkowski's house in Columbia, and Beta Chapter sent 18 out of the 40 representatives that attended the Leadership Training session.

After six months delay, because of a dispute over sewage line rights, construction of our new fraternity house will hopefully start soon, so it looks like we'll finally move out of our "attic suite" here at Presbyterian.

Our chapter retreat was held at Hilton Head the second week in January. Talk about cold!!!

GAMMA University of California at Berkeley This year at Gamma, there is a new spirit. It is marked by the striving of brothers and pledges to achieve a house full of Pi Kapp fraternal union. It was present at the Pi Kapp football games. Here the greatest turnouts ever of participants and spectators witnessed our power elite battle to a 3-3-0 mediocre season. It is present in cooperation within the house and should make this one of the best years for accomplishing house tasks and raising our incredibly high G.P.A.'s even higher.

Our house now has 39 live-ins (19 brothers and 20 pledges). With our new numerical strength and our new, or perhaps stronger, spirit, Gamma is going to have one Hell of a year.

****************************** Gamma Chapter regrets the loss of Rev. C. J. Tyler, the guiding force and spiritual leader of Gamma Chapter for many years. He was an initiate of Eta Chapter. He was like a father and close advisor to the men of Gamma in his last years. The national fraternity has lost an outstanding brother and Gamma Chapter has lost a true friend.

ZETA Wofford Zeta is off to a great year. One of the best rushes in years, thanks to a new spirit, brought in 22 great new Associate Members.

In order to honor the best member of this Associate Member class, the "Bo Massingale Memorial Award" is being established for the ~~Best Associate Member." This award is in honor of our Brother

Rho Chapter's Pi Kapps returned from the summer to find the lodge in desperate need of repairs. The brothers, out of necessity, became experts with the hammer and brush. The last coat of paint had barely dried when the rushees entered our hallowed halls. The Pi Kapps turned on their abundant charms, and consequently received 22 pledges, the second largest pledge class on campus.

Many brothers have distinguished themselves in campus activities. Pat Hinely was selected Editor of the Yearbook, as well as being chosen for Who's Who in American Colleges and Universities, while John Kessling became the new director for the school station, WLUR-FM. Billy Sturges has been instrumental in making Lexington's Big Brother program for the underprivileged a success.

Brothers Hinely, Squires and Costello were chosen for CONTACT, the university's inteltectual symposium, which decides those speakers of national prominence who will address the student body.

The brotherhood, with the aid of the pledges, has had a successful intramural season this fall. Placing well in the football playoffs, and with respectable performances in tennis, golf and cross country, the Pi Kapps are eyeing the winter term with great expectation , for handball and basketball have been perennial winners for Rho. Plans are being formulated to re-plumb and re-wire the entire house next summer. The brothers and pledges of Rho Chapter have had a great first half, and we are looking forward to bigger and better things in '73.

SIGMA University of South Carolina 1972 was seen as one of Sigma Chapter's most productive years.

S~v~ral .long range goals were accomplished with many new goals w1thtn s1ght. Our chapter led the Greeks at the University of South Carolina in rush by gaining 21 new pledges this fall. With 12 new initiates, our total brotherhood now stands at 61, one of the largest chapters in the state.

Sigma Chapter zeroed in on developing better community relations as well as raising inter-fraternity relationships. One of the most rewarding projects in this field was our production of Cockfest '72 (a combination homecoming pep rally, variety show, and concert) . Under the direction of Brother Kit Jennings, Cockfest '72 proved to be a much needed lift in the midst of a rather dismal foot~all .se~son for our school. The intramural program added a great msp1rat1on to our brotherhood as we are currently in the lead for the all sports trophy .

Interest in chapter activities has reached an all time high at Sigma Chapter which is exemplified by the fact that many of the committees are headed by newly initiated members.

With the pressing need for off-campus housing, our chapter advisor, Ed Atwater, and our area governor, Ernie Zinkowski, in conjunction with the chapter members, have made our goal of a new fraternity house seem quite possible in the near future.

Our proudest moment , however, came during a speech given by Dr. Thomas F. Jones, the President of the University of South Carolina, when he stated, in relation to fraternities on campus," . ... the rejuvenation of the Greek system at the University of South Carolina owes a special debt of gratitude to Pi Kappa Phi."

TAU North Carolina State University The members at Tau feel that the fall semester has been very successful. As a result of a moderate rush, we now have seven fine pledges whom we feel will contribute very much to the brotherhood.

These men are David Godwin, Mike Jordan, AI Williams, Ronnie Kirkley , Darrell Hewett, Hunter Atkins, and Ronald Haisen . IFC here

at N. C. State sponsored a rush seminar this fall. Ideas put forth at this meeting should yield a successful spring rush. Our chapter house has undergone some improvements this fall. We have acquired a new shag carpet for our living room as well as drapes for the dining room and living room. This semester we have enjoyed numerous visits from alumni. We have all worked hard to have good alumni relations .

One of the most worthwhile projects that this chapter has is the sponsoring of a mentally retarded Boy Scout Troop. This fall some of the brothers took these boys on a hike through a state park .

Right now a Christmas party is planned for these Scouts .

We are hoping for a similarly successful spring semester and wish the same for each chapter.

UPSILON University of Illinois Without a doubt, the highlight of the fall semester for the members of Upsilon Chapter at the University of Illinois was Homecoming . On the weekend of October 20 - 22, thirty-three alumni and their families and friends gathered at the chapter house for a full weekend of activities . The alums ranged from our first Archon , charter member Pau I Walker '21, to those who just graduated last June. Despite the wide range of ages and backgrounds, we all . felt that common bond which ioins us in Pi Kaooa Phi.

Members of Upsilon Chapter (U. of Ill.) on the porch or of their house After a buffet lunch at the chapter house on Saturday, everyone attended the disappointing Illinois football game against Michigan.

After warming up and drying out, the brothers held the Housing Corporation annual meeting. An informal social hour was followed by the Homecoming Banquet, at the house. There were close to ninety people at the banquet --certainly the largest turnout in many years.

On Sunday morning , the alumni challenged the students to a football game in which the students, obviously the favorites, were defeated .

Thanks to the enthusiastic support from the chapter members, our homecoming display, for which we were paired with the women of Alpha Xi Delta, was awarded third-place honors in our division.

Because of the fantastic financial and moral support of the alumni, Upsilon has been able to make several much-needed physical improvements. Work has begun on a new roof, the installation of a new hot water heater and two new shower stalls. The house is also scheduled for exterior painting in the spring. The mothers' association has provided a new carpet for the foyer stairs and they are working with the dads' association to purchase a new color television for the living room.

Upsilon has joined with other Greek houses and independent groups on the Illinois campus to form a co-operative. The cooperative's main advantaQe is that throuQh offerinQ bulk orders to

A former Archon and Best Brother of chapter, Tom McMasters passed away on September 29 1972 b · , r a I . ong out w1th cancer. Tom's outstanding good nature and fnendship still remains in the hearts of each brother at Chi.

The big event at Omega Chapter this year has been the celebration of our 50th Anniversary. We celebrated our 50th with a banquet on the night of October 21. About 150 people including Executive Director Durward Owen were in attendance. Singing done by all the brothers at the end of the banquet sent everyone on their way with a really warm feeling inside. Over that weekend, 94 alumni visited the house. We were especially glad that five of our charter members were able to attend 50th weekend. About 250 people filled the house that noon for a buffet before Purdue's homecoming football game. Meeting and talking with brothers from all years was a very memorable and rewarding experience for all the brothers, both alumni and undergraduates: It was an unforgettable weekend of brotherhood.

This fall, many improvements were made in the house and the brothers all pitched in to paint the entire inside of the house. So the house looked really great for 50th. Many alumni commented on it.

We had a very successfu I little sister rush and pledged 20 fine young women at the end of September.

We are now nearing the end of rush and are looking forward to pledging a fine new class.

ALPHA ALPHA Mercer University Prior to the start of the 1972-73 school year, Alpha Alpha was already to work as three of our brothers attended Supreme Chapter.

September found our rush efforts rewarded with four social affiliates, in addition to our pledge class, under the supervision of H. A. Dunham, Warden.

As the pledge class project, a patio addition to the lodge is being planned and materials obtained, in addition to the painting and general renovation of the game room. The pledge class was also proud to announce the selection of Miss Cathy Carr as its pledge sweetheart.

At the end of formal rush, chapter elections were held with Fred Miller being selected as the new Archon, Mike Cantwell as Treasurer, Wade Moore as Secretary, H. A. Dunham as Warden, Randy Reynolds as Historian and Clem Myers as Chaplain.

The completion of two successful money making projects gives Alpha Alpha bright hopes financially for the coming year.

With the founding of the Little Sisters of Alpha Alpha, Ellen QuVal, Claudia Crowder, Patty Sanger, Penny Miller, Debi Dunham, Maryln Tanner, Cathy Van Fleit, Cathy Carr and Mary Sue Vickers, we feel that a significant step has been made for further progress in all aspects of Alpha Alpha's place on the Mercer University campus.

ALPHA DELTA University of Washington Alpha Delta chapter is now in a period of rebuilding. A number of members last year temporarily left the house to experiment in other ways of living . But now, a movement has started for these members to move back. In addition, we are gaining new blood. We have pledged one person this quarter and several more are on the verge of joining our ranks .

Although our numbers are smaller than before, solidarity at Alpha Delta is at an all-time high. One example is in the area of sports.

Our intramural football team fought to a 2 - 3 record though lacking the physical prowess of the other teams. Our volleyball team scored a 4 - 1 record and made the playoffs. We expect to have a strong basketball team, too.

Alpha Delta has received valuable help from the Alumni in the Seattle area, giving us advice on financial matters. We also had a successfull Alumni banquet the night before the Huskies trounced U.C.L.A. in the annual Homecoming game.

that evening to Brother Ralph Koerner for Outstanding Brother, Brother Siegfried Rother for Outstanding Alumni, and Brother Joseph Gotz Caruso for Most Improved Cumulative Average.

Financially the chapter looks very strong and the House Manager is running in the black for the first time in about 4 years. Many substantial improvements are also being made on the house.

We are planning an extensive rush program for the Spring utilizing many ideas that we have accumulated from other Chapters, national, and alumni over the Fall semester. Alpha Xi looks to a very rewarding Spring semester to an enjoyable summer and to San Francisco in '74.

ALPHA OMICRON Iowa State ALPHA SIGMA University of Tennessee The Alpha Sigma Chapter has been involved in several activities this fall quarter. With the buying of our house, we have seen our first financial status in several years. Not having to pay out rent and other fees to Zeta Beta Tau, who previously occupied our house, the chapter is now able to buy badly needed furniture and washing machines for the convenience of the brothers.

Alpha Sigma Chapter invited several members of a literary society at Carson Newman to visit our chapter for an exchange of examination. These men may soon become brothers with the colonization at Carson Newman.

In the area of public service, Alpha Sigma Chapter has not fallen short. The brothers have collected money for such charities as the Heart Fund and United Givers. During the last week of school last quarter, while exams were still in full boom, some of the brothers managed to gather up time to buy gifts and give a Christmas party for some of the deprived children of Knoxvi lie.

ALPHA TAU Rensselaer This fall has been a productive period for the Alpha Tau Chapter.

Despite being shorthanded, the Brothers put together an extensive rush program which resulted in 6 pledges and the prospects for a good number more.

Besides increasing our membership, we have as goals several physical improvements of the House. Most important of our goals is the renovation of the kitchen, which has not been in operation for two years. This shortcoming has been a considerable handicap to our past rushing efforts. Via his pious perspicacity, Archon Doug Wiles is overseeing the project, sagaciously reasoning that once the kitchen is going, the Chapter can compete more effectively with the other 22 houses on campus.

The first step towards renovation was taken recently when the Brothers and pledges held a "kitchen wrecking party." The tile, floor and panelling of the old facility were removed to make way for the new.

In September the conclave for area I chapters was held.

Representatives from Brooklyn Poly, Newark and Cornell attended.

All agreed that the conclave and the visit of Field Secretary Mike Tru 11 were a shot in the arm for the House.

The Brothers are currently busy rendering the house ready for the Yuletide season. As always, we here at "the Castle" had one of the most impressive Christmas trees in the area.

Since the brothers were unable to field a football team, the atheletes among us are looking forward to the winter sports schedule. Teams will be fielded in basketball, volleyball and table tennis. The prospects for the table tennis team are bright because ace Bi 11 Dussler is returning. Dussler is well known in the area for his prowess with the paddle and there is always a large contingent on hand to watch him play.

ALPHA UPSILON CHAPTER Drexel University Alpha Upsilon is proud to announce the pledging of 24 men which climaxed what many brothers openly admit was probably the

WINTER '73 I 15

I

'

most successful Summer-Fall Term our house has seen in recent years. Even with a fall pledge class of this magnitude, there are still hopes of adding to this number at the beginning of Winter term.

The delegates from Alpha Upsilon who attended the Supreme Chapter came back with renewed enthusiasm and ideas concerning the direction our chapter should pursue at Drexel. From reports we have received our delegates left a very definite impression on Atlanta and hopefully on the minds of our fellow Pi Kapps.

Our Fall Term was one of extended activity. As the number of pledges indicates, the house supported a tremendous rush effort.

We also held a conclave with Penn. State which was attended by Durward Owen and a few other National officers to tell more of our brothers about the new ideas expressed at the Supreme Chapter meeting. The following day our house held a Parent-Alumni Day which the house considered tremendously successful. An estimated 50 sets of parents or friends came to see the fraternity. The support from our alumni, however, left a great deal to be desired. Added to these activities our house also saw the continuance of speak-easy nights, mixers, and thumper games.

Alpha Upsilon has usually put on a strong showing in the sports program. This summer and fall our teams did not do especially well in the win column but gained the all Important opportunity of enjoying the sports. The idea of a more friendly brotherhood type team effort which enjoys playing became the fashion of our house, and we feel will lead us eventually to even greater sports accomplishments. Academically, our house fared very well, supporting a 3.1 average Summer term with a total house average of approximately 2.7.

The brothers of Alpha Upsilon are to be congratulated with the most successful Summer-Fall Term and are awaiting the new term with enth,u siasm and even greater plans for the over all growth of our house as a leader at both Drexel and in our national organization.

ALPH~

PHI Illinois Institute of Technology (liT) In the past few years a new facet has been added to the Fraternity Experience here at Alpha Phi; the annual freshman hassle. Two years ago the school found itself with a declining enrollment and a declining dormitory residence rate. To alleviate this sudden loss of revenue they decided not to allow a certain amount of new pledges out of their dorm contracts. The purpose of this was to spread the burden equatly between the school and the fraternities on campus.

This was a new policy and naturally received a lot of opposition from the fra~ernities. Thankfully, our alumni also expressed concern for the situation, especially alumnus Frederic Widlak whose personal letter to the president of liT disturbed the school administration no end. Agreements will hopefully be reached in the near future whereby pledges under dormitory contracts will be released partially if not totally.

Our fall semester officers are: Paul Dominguez-Archon, Jim Debelina-Treasurer, Jim Quiter-Secretary, Jim Newlan-Warden, Vern Pigott-Historian, and Jack Mulliner-Chaplain. The executive council members, being in a majority sophomores, should give our chapter a sound foundation of leadership usable in years to come.

Among the service activities Alpha Phi has participated in, the most popular has to be our annual Halloween party for underprivileged orphans in the Chicago area. Needless to say the childrens' excitement and enthusiasm results in total enjoyment for both the children and brothers. As of this writing we are looking forward to Founder's Day at which we will be honored by a visit from our new National President, Ted Scharfenstein. We are interested in what he may have to say. The brothers would also like to take this opportunity to welcome our new Area Governor, Jim Daley, and extend our full cooperation and support. Fall initiation has given us three new brothers who we are very proud to have with us.

Rush week this year produced a pledge class low in quantity but high in quality. Included are a sophomore, a transfer student, five regular freshmen and three freshmen in Ecubed, an experimental program of study, Education & Experience in Engineering, in which the students work on selected projects and don't receive formal grades.

For all our Alumni who happen to see this and not our chapter publication, please keep us informed as to your current mailing address. We are interested in you!!!

ETA DELTA rake University

Ti~·~ay

that Beta Delta has had a good year so far would be a uc~ e understatement. To say we have had a great year would be ,u.... a dm~re accurate. Many of the goals that we have been working rov;d sli ~r the last.~ - 3 years, such as increased membership, imit' _vlng cond1ttons, and most of all, a very highly respected 'n. the Greek system of Drake University have finally begun bel on realized. '

it:~: ~~ar sta~ed off right when the house, equipped with new fur-

hich' d~sh Paint, an~ 20 eager men, pu lied a 21 man pledge class ledge cl uble.d t~e stze of our membership. It was the largest at 19 of ass tn _ft~e years and even more impressive was the fact icked the ongtnal 21 were activated along with two pledges we use uphafter formal rush. The pledges were able to furnish the Wit a new color television set.

Beta Delta has been trying for several years to locate and purchase a larger and newer house more suited to our needs. One of the sorority houses went up for sale on "Greek Street" and we are currently in the process of completing the final transaction and plan to move in about Feb. 1. The house is newer and closer to campus and is about three times as large. We wi II not now be iso Iated, location-wise, from the other Greek houses, as we were before.

Sports have shown considerable improvement too. Our football team had its best season in eight years and we managed to finish a solid fourth in the fraternity league standings.

The chapter finished a close second during the annual Sweetheart Sing group act singing contest between the fraternities and sororities ' .which takes place during Greek Week. Also. for the third straight year, Beta Delta made the finals for Bu II dog Tales which is the campus variety show taking place in March. We are hoping to better last year's second place finish.

For the first time in our 23 year history, Beta Delta won the Greek Involvement Award which is presented annually at the Greek Week banquet to the fraternity and sorority who have shown the most leadership and involvement in campus and community affairs. With members of the house holding such important positions as Greek Week Chairman, I FC Rush Chairman and Student Body Vice President, Beta Delta has really made its name known in the Drake community.

Incidentally, Beta Delta also won the Scholarship Trophy at the Greek Week Banquet. It was the fourth consecutive time we have won it, an 1FC record. The brothers had an overall grade point average of over a 3 point on a 4 point scale, an all-campus record.

BETA ETA Florida State University Beta Eta Chapter had its best homecoming in memory this ye?r. we brought back almost 150 alumni brothers for a very spec1al reason.

"Be it resolved that on this day the twenty-first of October, 1972~ the student and alumni brothers of the Beta Eta Chapter of The ~~ Kappa Phi Fraternity do declare "Mom" Ruth Knighton IS recognized by all brothers of this chapter as the Mother of Beta Eta Chapter". . , .

Mom came to FSU in 1956 as a housemother at a gtrl s dormttory.

When the system was changed in 1958, Beta Eta Pi Kapps asked her to come to the then eight year old chapter. Known, loved, and admired by all the brothers, dates, wives, little ~isters, parents an.d anybody who met her, she quickly became an tntegral part of thts chapter.

Although Beta Eta has been without a house for almost two years now, by unanimous vote last spring, ~he brothers and pledges vowed that the house we build or buy wtll have a place for Mom to stay as long as she wishes. .

Although we are innovative and modern tn many ways, our l~ve for Mom will not allow us to go the way of other chapters by dotng away with housemothers. There is only. one Mom for Beta Eta and there will not be another. To that woman we pay our respect and love for all she has done for us - "Mom" Ruth Knighton.

BETA IOTA University of Toledo For the past month, Beta Iota has been involved in a vast rebuilding effort. Sixteen men pledged on Founder's Day and plan to become active in February. Since Beta Iota has no active members at this time, officers were elected from the pre-initiates. We have set a goal for thirty members by the end of spring term.

The pre-initiates fired the Pi Kappa Phi cannon for Toledo's last home game. We received a hearty welcome from students and Glassbowl caretakers who had missed the traditional cannon since the chapter deactivated last spring. It was an enjoyable but deafening experience!

Also in November, five Beta Iota pre-initiates attended a conclave at Alpha Theta - Michigan State. Those of us who were there enjoyed meeting with our Alpha Theta brothers. We had much in common since Alpha Theta is also rebuilding their chapter. National sent over an excellent program modeled after the 1971 Pi Kapp college.

WINTER '73 I 17

After the initial cleaning efforts, Beta Iota's new members did some painting in the house. We turned ourselves loose on the upstairs and downstairs halls, painting them red and white with black light designs . In the future we plan more painting, re-roofing , and a small amount of plumbing.

December 15 has been set as the date for our first alumni vs. preinitiate basketball game. We hope to have another in January with more publicity behind it so we can have the opportunity to meet more of our alumni. So far we have met Gene Kratzman, Randy Rogers, Dick Wheeler, Jerry Dunaway, Steve Nearing , John Mason and Denny Whiting. Gene and Randy 's interest and participation have helped us immensely.

After having been around for a month, it seems there is no place to go but up for Beta Iota Chapter!

BETA KAPPA Georgia State After enjoying a very busy and rewarding rush, we got our pledges working with us on our planned program . We started off with our 3rd annual sports car slalom. Running with a fast course this year, the slalom raised $300 to be donated to the Norman Turner Kidney Fund. The $300 will , hopefully, give this young man a chance to live a healthy, normal life.

Throughout the Fall quarter, we had our minds on football. The team consisted of about twelve players. We were small in number, but big at heart, because we always gave the other team a battle.

Again in November we held our Feed the Children Drive. Having the other fraternities and sororities take part in this charitablf3 drive, we were able to collect over $2,000 worth of food. When the food was packaged it was then distributed to selected families .

The pledges , after going through Fall quarter developing new friendships and habits, were initiated into Pi Kappa Phi. Our new brothers include : Tommy Brand, Tommy Bunch, Tim Cribbs, Greg Rose , and Brian Tully.

The Pi Kapps at U. T. are well represented in all facets of stud government. John Walsh, Attorney General of Student Governrnl John Salvatore, Student Judiciary Board; Dennis aau Sophomore Senator; and Duke Keegan, Student Judiciary B~ lntramurals once again spotlighted the fall for Beta Lambda. brothers proved true in all sports getting high-grade individuaiJ formances from Kevin "Stork" Lynch (M.V.P. of lntramurals ~ 72}, Rudy Toth, Steve "Reb" Puckett and Jerry Weigle. In sports at U. T., Beta Lambda captured both the football volleyball titles. In minor sports Beta Lambda placed in most e\'~ including a first in archery and tug-a-war. Several 2nds ~nd j were collected in such activities as billiard, bait casting â&#x20AC;˘ .....-~ seshoes and paddle tennis.

Scholarship for the brothers proved to be one of the hig the major fraternities at U. T. Rush at Beta Lambda was again strong. Ten new brothers recently initiated as Pi Kapps.

Thanks to our officers for th~ fall semester: Archon, Salvatore; Treasurer, Edward Macri; Warden, Chris Mil House Manager, Rudy Toth; Historian, John Dwan; and Ch Mike DiPiazza.

3f11 Caliber of Y at this tradition was set aside Rather with the 1or men in both that pledge class ~nd the' current

brotherhood sentiment, it was decided that the old approach no longer fit our needs. Fortunately, it appears that the emphasis of the pledge program can continue to be placed on genuine fraternal relationships developed throughout the course of the year rather than illusions blindly grabbed in an emotional frenzy with unsuitably transient characteristics.

The newest pledge class, resulting from the Ross Perry organized rush '72 is the primary reason for unlimited optimism for the course the house is to take in the next few years. Nineteen first-yearmen were pledged and every indication is that we have quality in addition to quantity.

On the financial side, Beta Upsilon is now one of the most financially stable houses at the University. The greatest reason for this is our possession of exclusive rental rights on small refrigerators for students in and around the Grounds, especially those in University housing. This year, the house made about $3,800 profit from these rentals, with the money going into various areas of house needs.

The kitchen, so deeply in debt for the past three years, received $1 ,000 and kitchen manager Ken Patterson hopes to see us in the black by the end of the semester. Much money and effort was put into the physical llplant" this fall with extensive exterior and interior painting and the rebuilding of the brick sections of the front porch.

In addition, with the stringent social pressures brought on by this year's unusual rush schedule, the money from refrigerators helped bear the cost of three big weekends in four weeks, when other houses had to forgo many rush parties.

This semester's officers are Tom Rouse, Treasurer; Bill Watson, Vice President; Croxton Gordon, Secretary; Rich Luscomb, Warden; Ed Martin, Historian; and John Guyer, Archon. Bill Watson, in close conjunction with Madison Hall Community Service, organized a clean up for "Camp Faith," a near-by recreation center for children, which involved many brothers and pledges for the first group action initiated primarily for the benefit of the new members. In late January it is hoped that the brothers can help organize the Richmond-based March of Dimes T. V. telethon in the Charlottesville area. By helping with the event's initiar advertising and by answering phones during the actual telethon, the brothers are hoping to contribute much to this very worthwhile organization. Already several brothers, Don Smith especially, have started talking and planning with the city's March of Dimes people on the beginning organization of the event. Thus the House is active in many extra community service activities as well as being busy with its own fraternal affairs.

BETA PHI East Carolina The new wildcat rush program adopted by the school administration paid off handsomely for the Pi Kapps. We initiated 11 new brothers before Christmas vacation. The new brothers are: Bob Brewster, Ho-Hus-Kus, N. J.; Griffith Vincent, Columbus Ohio· ' ' Bailey Hurt, Easley, S. C.; Brian Sibley, New Bern, N. C.; Randy Huggins, Tabor City, N.C.; Walter Clark and Mark Fackrell, Mt. Airy, N. C; Jim Forshaw, Bill Heard, John Rambo and Carl Ealy, Charlotte, N. C. Prospects for a fine winter rush are bright. In keeping with Pi Kappa Phi tradition, we continue to stress quality, not necessarily quantity, in our rush tactics.

As far as intramurals are concerned, we head into winter quarter and are ahead once again in the President's Cup race, something we have won 5 out of the last 7 years. This lead is on the basis of a football championship and a loss in the finals of volleyball.

BETA CHI East Texas State University On December 1, 1972, Beta Chi Chapter initiated three new members. They are Brothers Kip Clark, Tim Hunter, and Lynn Schoelerman. Two remaining associate members are Steve Willis and Steve Litherland.

The new officers for the Spring '73 are: Archon - Rick Bunch Treasurer - John Early Secretary - Robert Yowell Warden - John Blum

The speaker was the Area Governor, Moyer D. Harris.

BETA PSI Tennessee Wesleyan Beta Psi enjoyed a most successful rush fall term. IFC introduced "Open rush" this fall and as a resu It we now have 10 pledges.

This fall marked a first for Beta Psi. The Little Sisters of the Star & Lamp organization was founded. Eight little sisters have been initiated, and the brotherhood has elected (7) seven new Little Sisters pledges. These girls have worked faithfully with us. Some of their projects have been: cleaning the house, helping with rush, raffling off a Pi Kapp jacket, and helping to plan the autumn ball. We are proud to announce Lynne Sharp as our Rose. She is also President of the Little Sisters. We are proud to mention that Little Sister Kay Isbell has been named to Who's Who in American Colleges and Universities.

The big event of the fall term was the Theater Arts Carnival. The carnival was a college and community effort. Beta Psi operated the ring toss booth. Children from 6 to 60 enjoyed tossing rings around bottles of soft drinks. Let us not forget the pledge class' booth they held an egg toss, with each taking his turn being egged. The brothers en joyed this booth.

The Executive Committee members are: William (Hatch) Hatcher, Ill, Archon; Scott L. Henry, Treasurer; Bill (Sunshine) McGauley, Secretary; Angelo Romano, Warden; Frank E. Horning, Historian; and Bob (Luch) Luchiano, Chaplain.

BETA OMEGA East Tennessee State The alumni, undergraduate brothers, pledges and little sisters of Beta Omega Chapter have been engaged in a fund raising project throughout fall quarter. We are raising money to be used to purchase new carpet for the house. Our alumni chapter has been especially helpful to us because they have offered to match the amount of money that we can raise. This project has proven to be very worthwhile and has generated a great deal of spirit and unity in the chapter.

As far as athletics are concerned, it was a slow football season for Beta Omega. We are now preparing to defend our championship volleyball, basketball and bowling teams. We are confident that we will remain on top in these sports and hope to improve on some of the weaker areas of our athletic program.

We had a very good turnout for homecoming this fall. Among those returning was Tony Mason, Beta Omega 3. Tony broadened our knowledge of the history of our chapter and left us with many new ideas for improvement of Beta Omega Chapter. We were very happy to see Tony and urge all our alumni to drop in and visit at any time. We would like to hear their suggestions and criticisms.

GAMMA ALPHA Livingston University The brothers of Gamma Alpha Chapter started the Fall quarter with a very successful rush. We are expecting a fine group of new brothers after initiation this winter quarter. The new pledges include: David Powell, Mike Savage, Don Gibson, Gale Smith, Bob Moore, Terry Rush, Allen Palmer, Jamie Watt, Peter Archambault, Tom Tartt, Clyde Yelverton, Greg Anderson, Allen Wallace, Eddie Preuit, and Larry Calhoun.

GAMMA ETA Athens College The year 1972 has been a very rewarding one for Gamma Eta chapter. At the beginning of the year there were numerous odds against Gamma Eta surviving at Athens College. The main obstacles were , lack of school enrollment which limited rush greatly, and also our chapter losing members through graduation and transfers. In September we started with just six members and due to a good rush program that number has been steadily rising ever since.

Working all semester by the ideals of Pi Kappa Phi we have become once again the strongest fraternity on the Athens College Campus.

One of our major goals this semester, was to help form a colony at neighboring Florence State University, and we at Gamma Eta are proud to say that they were colonized on December 15, 1972. Founders Day th is year was based on building our relationship with the Gamma Eta alumni. The turn out was good but not as strong as we had hoped , but at this time we would like to thank the alumni that did come for their generous donations that will make our publication the greatest ever.

Gamma Theta has finally moved into a new house. The house we moved into this summer is small and only temporary. At this time we are having plans drawn up for a new fraternity house.

We are still raising money so that we can build a new house . So far this year we have raffled off a ten speed bike, and some up c oming fund raising projects include a barbeque dinner and a musical concert. We have some more good ideas and hope to raise enought money so we can begin building next year.

This semester the officers of Gamma Theta are: Archon , Ken Gregory ; Treasurer, John Braswell; Secretary, Edward Sundy; Warden ; Rick Formaini; Historian ; Brad Walls; Chaplain; Frank Moore.

This new executive committee hopes to bring Gamma Theta closer to its goal of a new house.

This halloween some brothers, along the Kappa Delta's, went out and collected donations for UNICEF which netted $150. After that we had a big party at a farm of one of our brothers '. (Halloween will never seem the same .)

Homecoming weekend proved to be most enjoyable for Gamma Nu Chapter. Friday night we worked to set up the homecoming display . The theme this year was " Every Good Man Should Come to the Aid of His Country ", and with the display we won first place along with a $100 savings bond .

On the big sports scene , the Pi Kappa Phi raiders were the undisputed football champs this year, again. This year makes four years in a row the Raiders have reigned supreme on the grid iron from 1968 to 1972. That's another Pi Kapp tradition we are proud of.

The brothers would like to give a special thanks to quarterback Rick Poole who guided us through these four years .

The brothers gave a spaghetti dinner for our new little sisters. We also inducted new officers this quarter. They are as follows : Syl Harris , Archon; Larry Mansour, Treasurer; Chuck Everstein , Secretary ; Lane Williams, Warden ; Reggie Jarrell , Historian ; and Mike Marsh, Chaplain.

This year the brothers of Gamma Nu have taken on the project of the Miss LaGrange College Pageant and we are working with anticipation of a great success .

GAMMA XI Georgia Southwestern This quarter Gamma XI Pledged 15 of the most outstanding men Georgia Southwestern has ever seen. A noticeable change has occured both in the appearance of the house and the relationship between brothers and pledges due to these yong men 's effort. The pledge class has had many worthwhile projects, including money making projects for improvements in the house.

Truly a valuable asset to our chapter, the Little Sisters have helped in our every undertaking. Their cheerful smile and attitude make every day go better. These girls truly symbolize the Red Rose of Pi Kappa Phi. The Raiders took time out on a recent Saturday for a retreat , to discuss in depth fraternal functions and plan future activities for our chapter.

Diligent efforts were made in collecting for museu lar dystrophy .

We felt this was a worthwhile community service project and hope our contribution helped.

With the first semester behind us, we at Gamma Upsilon are able to look back at how fruitful our efforts were. We started out this year with a total of 12 new associates and were rated in the top five houses on campus in rush . With these men we have grown together and are now able to call them brothers. Having this " new blood " we were able to strike out on new adventures. Sorority relations were at an all time high this year and we maintained our good relations with the independents. Keeping our spirits going, our parties turned out to be the " usual " Pi Kapp bashes! Realizing that one needs to be kept motivated , Gamma Upsilon held a fall retreat and as an outcome has restructured many of our programs. Recently initiated this • year was the Little Sisters of the White Diamond Organization at Gamma Upsilon . We now have 15 girls who feel dedicated to help the house and each of the guys within. So as one can gather from this brief overview , Gamma Upsilon Chapter has accomplished a 1ot and has a great semester to look forward to.

In intramural football we placed 5th out of twelve fraternities. After very hard practice , Gamma Phi placed third in the annual Chi Omega songfest. In addition to having two brothers nominated and one elected to Who 's Who in American Colleges and Universities last Spring , we have one brother now serving on the university's judicial court.

Gamma Phi has pledged 8 men this year and we are very pleased to say we think they are some of the finest men on campus.

Improvements on Gamma Phi 's chapter house include some new furniture and a new patio and barbecue pit.

DELTA ALPHA VPI Fall quarter was a two month period of strengthening at Delta Alpha . This strength came not in numbers, our rush being hampered by strict new University regulations, but in the form of a better-organized, harder-working, and more-involved fraternity. Our committee system has become so effective that almost every active brother is involved in at least one committee . Through these committees we have successfully carried out community service projects , money-making projects, a full social calander, and numerous other activities.

In looking to the future, Delta Alpha's Alumni Housing Corporation was officially incorporated by the State of Virginia, and the first annual meeting was held this fall.

Delta Alpha is now operating successfully. Our labors were realized by two brothers of our local fraternity who were initiated as alumni members of Pi Kappa Phi at the same time pledge Carter Ramsey was initiated. We are proud to welcome into the alumni brotherhood of Pi Kappa Phi Brothers John Crist and Charles Pleasants. Their confidence in us is ample indication that we are truly presenting ourselves as a successfu I chapter of Pi Kappa Phi.

DELTA BETA North Georgia College Delta Beta will soon undergo a period of transition next quarter with winter quarter elections coming up. Our officers for fall quarter were Randy Harris, Archon; Steve Vail, Treasurer; Ricky Becker, Secretary; Tom Galloway, Warden; Dennis McConnell, Historian; and Sam Prince, Chaplain.

During fall quarter our main moneymaking project was the Red Dog Saloon, which was held during Gold Rush Days in Dahlonega on October 22. For the second year in a row, Delta Beta put together the best show in town. "Ruby Red" and the "Necks" provided vocal and instrumental entertainment. Bar maids and dance hall girls, along with wobbly, drunken card players added color, skin and grins to the show. Not everyone present in Dahlonega during Gold Rush got to see the Red Dog Saloon, but the estimated 2,500 who did were thoroughly entertained. We netted, by the way, over $1,100.00.

On October 31, the brothers of Delta Beta with the help of our Little Sisters of the Star and Lamp and Kappa Delta Sorority threw a Halloween party for the elementary schools of Dahlonega. A total of 450 screaming kids proved to be quite a challenge for the Raiders

The party was held at the new Dahlonega community ice skating rink. Games were played and refreshments were served.

The kids had a good time , but the Pi Kapps and KD's were worn out.

Fall Rush added ten new pledges, all of whom were initiated on December 2 to bring our brotherhood to 67 strong. The Little Sisters organization has also added four good looking members to their roster .

As far as social activities are concerned, Delta Beta was unmatched by any of the other clubs on campus. Two cultural affairs programs were held at the plush and beautiful "Hunt" in Gainesville, and a combination hot dog roast and beer fest was held at Toto Creek .

During winter quarter the chapter has planned a Founder's Day Banquet. Spring quarter will bring the third annual Easter Seals Marathon and Rose Ball. We 're also looking forward to a repeat performance as a champion master chapter.

TAU KAPPA DELTA COLONY Florence State Dr. Robert M. Guillot (Alpha Iota) arrived on the Florence State University campus, set his suitcase down, and declared, " How Sweet It Is! " Indeed, since his arrival at Florence State, things have been sweet. Among the sweeping changes he has effected is the admission of National Fraternities to a traditionally anti-fraternal campus .

As the National Fraternities took an interest and came to the campus, the lone local social-service fraternity watched intently.

Finally, Tau Kappa Delta saw the group that fits its needs and desires. That group was Pi Kappa Phi. Tau Kappa Delta was a Social-service fraternity forged six years ago by Florence State students who felt they were missing a large part of collegiate life . One of the primary objectives was to end an era of apathy; to progress toward a spirited campus.

While striving for more campus involvement, the Tau Kappa Delta Colony has produced some outstanding leaders. Some of the more recent of these are: Lou~e Holland, Archon , a nominee to Who's Who in American Colleges and Universities, nominee for Mr. FSU; Vernon Denton , editor of the Florala, the campus newspaper, Who's Who nominee, and Mr. FSU nominee; John Knaur, editor of the yearbook, The Diorama; Randy Elmore , football quarterback, ROTC department leader; Jim Glass, track letterman, Student Government representative; Bill Waugh, President of the German Club, Who's Who nominee; Les Nunnelly, Who 's Who nominee; Dan Taylor, President of the Student Union Board, Who's Who nominee , Mr. FSU nominee.

This year the Tau Kappa Delta Colony has been involved in several service functions. The colony served as head of the campus United Fund , setting a goal of $1,000. Besides collecting old glasses for rework and distribution to the poor, Tau Kappa Delta Colony has proclaimed itself " litter warden " on the FSU campus and is currently awaiting gar~age cans for distribution . The colony has also made arrangements to carry underprivileged children to FSU basketball games.

Among the honors received this year, our Rose Queen, Susan Jones , w as elected to the Homecom ing Court. Vernon Denton was named to Who 's Who , and Kohn Knaurs yearbook has been called by publishers , " The best I've been able to put in print " .

The Pi Kappa Phi Chapter at Athens College invited us to their Found er's Day. That terrific group showed us exactly what it means to be part of Pi Kappa Phi and how much it means to be chartered.

The Jacksonville Chapter, during a visit by some of our men , instilled in us a greater desire to be part of a brotherhood that reaches across America.

To these two chartered groups, we would like to extend thanks for helping us to see brotherhood at its best.

Tau Kappa Delta Colony members (Florence State) look more like a page out of history than one of our newest colonies. Rumor has it, Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid are new pledges.

KAPPA PHI COLONY Western Kentucky Kappa Pi Colony at Western Kentucky proudly announces that it is tops ac ademically among the Greeks with a 2.87 overall. Striving to keep this honor, activities centered toward the "mind expanding " have been sponsored in conjunction with a local church in Bowling Green . Topics for discussion included Jonathan Livingston SeagGull , Clockwork Orange, Th.e films George Girl, and The Fixer.

Besides the academics, the political arena has also been the center of attention for Kappa Phi Colony. With the local McGovern center floundering, a political rally raised fifty dollars for the not so successfu I cause.

Pi Kappa Phi came to the rescue for the Junior class homecoming. Brother Fred Price , Junior class president , called on his brothers to help build the class float because of the lack of cooperation from an apathetic class. The creative abilities of the group came through as the float took third place in competition.

At the beginning of this academic year , the colony met for a three day retreat where the majority of the constitution was compiled , and the group is happy to say it is finished. Also this fall our first newsletter was published , and the initiation of our first little sisters was performed .

Kappa Phi Colony is concerned with continuing leadership as experienced brothers graduate. As a measure to insure leadership, the colony has sponsored members, Timothy McGill , Bill Miller, and Stan Gwynn, to the National Leadership Methods Seminar held at Western the 17th , 18th, and 19th of November. This program is a rewarding effort and we hop other chapters will participate when possible .

Being a well traveled group, various brothers, Jim Baskett, Bill Miller, Gary Stevens, and Advisor Ben Jones would like to thank all the chapters they have visited for putting up with them . (Chi, Gamma Delta, and Beta Lambda).

"You've come a long way baby." This is how we feel about il colony. Beginning with the spring semester '72 up to and includ iuct now. Through an all out campaign by all of our Brothers, oer: ordE Warford, was elected to the position of Vice-President of · tifac 1 Student Government Association .

Although we were inactive during the summer, we h3c don weekend retreat on the weekend of July 21. It proved to be a 5·.

The fall semester '72 was ce A tered around going national and no community involve~e but projects were initated, but we gave 100o/o support to all soronl Spc and fraternities. This included 1.

These eight are: Joe Alex, James Campfield, Raymond Alfonso , Steven Hales, Mark Moczynski, Davi.d Cordy, Charles Furman and Larry Ordway. The spirit in our group IS fantastic for a commuter school and it is possible that we may all be living together by winter quarter. .

We will be very busy next quarter with our first rush and g~ttmg together with Beta Lambda at Tampa University for some funct1ons.

We would be glad to see anyone from other chapters and alumni.

KAPPA PHI COLONY Middle Tennessee State University

KAPPA PHI COLONY University of North Carolina at Charlotte Since October of 1972, when the Kappa Phi Colony at UNC-C was officially recognized by the Student Legislature, our primary objective has been growth and development. We are eagerly looking forward to the day when we will become a full fledge chapter of Pi Kappa Phi . Our initial membership of nine founders has grown to a dedicated group of twenty-one members. Currently, we have a pledge class of eight men.

Our colony has participated in a wide variety of student activities. Besides the normal intramural participation, the Pi Kapp 's of UNC-C have given blood as a group to the Charlotte Red Cross. We won first prize for the best special entry, in the annual 49er 's Festival Parade . Currently we are planning a Newsletter and a Rose Ball for the spring. A colony retreat is also in the planning stages for the spring.

The monentum of spirit and brotherhood we have developed over the past few months will prove unending as our colony pushes toward national recognition.

WINTER '73 I 29

You remember people for some unusual reasons!

For example, C. J. Tyler, Eta - Emory, would always wait until 9:00p.m. Oakland, California time to call me long distance. It did not matter that the time in Charlotte, North Carolina was after 12 midnight and that I would be in bed - it saved money.

C. J. was a financially poor, retired Methodist minister of advanced age when I first met him.

Gamma Chapter, Berkeley, was a dying chapter. C. J. took over as chapter advisor, area governor, and even as cook - but more important he was a friend to the student members. He even had the nerve to interview Gamma's prospective pledges and insist that they agree to attend Sunday School. This was in the 1960's! He saved the chapter, and I suspect some sou Is in the process.

I never met Bill Simon, Alpha Mu -Penn State. We have scheduled a trip to Pittsburgh for April and I had planned to meet him for the first time then. Bill was retired from his work but not from Pi Kappa Phi, and especially not from his beloved Penn State Chapter.

Our office was always receiving letters from Bill some with checks, but all with either helpful information, advice, or offers of assistance. Recently he was helping the national office try to establish a chapter at Robert Morris College in Pittsburgh. Bill was always contributing but I never met him.

Now Don Lawton, Alpha Zeta - Oregon State, is another story. A brilliant man who was financially and professionally successful - and who had an unusual zest for life. Don was a PR man professionally, but for Pi Kappa Phi he was always behind the scene. This was by his desire. Much of the activities of the Portland area alumni of Pi Kappa Phi were engineered by Don. He aided in advising the national office staff on written material and, in fact, did write articles for the Star and Lamp -but never would he allow his name to be attached. He insisted on anonymity for all his input. Successful and busy, yet modest, he still had time to drive me up to Pendleton, Oregon, to look for a wool shirt.

The winter of 1972-73 is in itself an unusual one for me. In one brief period of time I was advised of the death of all three of these friends. Friends made possible by Pi Kappa Phi Fraternity membership.

As far as I know, not one of these Pi Kapps ever 路 received one thing of material value from the fraternity. They never asked for benefits - but were always contributing in their way. Pages could be written about them and many other Pi Kapps who, like them, ask only to be allowed to contribute.

I will especially miss C. J.'s midnight phone calls; my friend, Bill, that I never met; and Don, whose name I can only now use in print. Unusual memories, but they were to me unusually memorable people.

Durward Owen - Fraternit~ Executives Association President

Executive Director Durward Owen (Xi-Roanoke) has 'S d assumed the presidency of one of the Greek worl most powerful and prestigious organizations. our路 ward was elected vice-president of F. E. A., a~ 8 organization for the administrators of Natior1 college fraternities, last summer. With the resignati 0 ~ of Bruce Melchert, former executive director of ra~ Kappa Epsilon, Durward automatically assumed t~e presidency on January 1, 1973.

In this capacity, as coordinator of the interfraterni~: 1 work of some fifty fraternity executives, Durward W be in close and direct contact with all phases of t~e Greek world including regional Interfraternity con路 ferences .

"Even though this unexpected elevation to t~e presidency wi II mean an increased work load in sofl'l~ areas, I feel it can be very beneficial to Pi Kappa p~l路 The increased contact and travel involved will giV: me a chance to better evaluate areas where we nee to look for expansion possibilities, and at the sart1~ 8 time, I will have a chance to make more persof'l visits with our own chapters across the nation," our: ward said in announcing his new office . Pi Kappa P~ 1 is fast becoming a leader in the interfraternity wo~ and this office will give us an opportunity to soliddi that position .
