Of COn'>'ention

Plans for the French Lick Convention are reaching the completion stage, and they promise much of interest, making it a working Convention, but with plenty of time for just getting ac· quainted . Read the Convention section in this issue for the last announcements from the Conven· tion Guide, send in your blanks with your registration fee , and come along!

Of ExtenJion

At National Panhellenic Conference last Fall there was much discussion of the always interesting subject of extension. The opinion was often expressed that one of the best ways to answer criticism of the fraternity system is to offer to more young people the privilege of membership in one of the organizations. This may be done in two ways; the size of chapters may be increased, and this is usually unwise, since when charters go above a moderate number of members much of the close bond which is the essence 0 Fraternity may be lost : or more chapters may be established on more campuses. That the latter is the preferred method is attested by the great number of new chapters being established on campuses of all types, going hand in hand with the great increase in college enrollment. That this is happening, and that many college presidents and deans are awake to the desirability of asking that new chapters be brought to their campuses, is common knowledge. In this movement Pi Beta Phi is playing her part, and should continue to do so as fine opportunities present themselves. Fine fields have opened of late, campuses which have previously been closed to the national fraternities are now asking for them, and many of these are excellent small colleges, which offer good courses, and draw a high type of students from fine types of families. To these we must give every consideration, without prejudice as to size of school, but with as high requirements as always in studying the qualifications of new groups. There will be discussion of this at Convention, so it will be well if chapters and clubs give time to thinking of this problem, to be prepared for possible action there.

Great Figure Passes

In the death of Alvan E. Duerr, for many years public relations counselor of the Manufacturers Trust Company, the Greek letter college fraternities of America must say farewell to a man who embodied many of the tinest ideals for which the college fraternity is supposed to stand. He was scholarly; he loved scholarship for its own sake; he was a gentleman; he was kindly; but he was no yes·man and there was no flavor of snobbery or self-righteousness about him. As national president of Delta Tau Delta, later as president of the National Interfraternity Conference and, most especially, as chairman for many years of that conference's committee on scholarship, he strove through a long life to make the Greek letter society not an end in itself but a means for improvement in the arts of gracious, studious, intelligent and companionable intercourse among undergraduates of congenial tastes and good breeding. The "frat" has not been without its faults ; it certainly has not been without its critics. Dr. Duerr sought to cure the faults and disarm the critics. Great as the errors mayor may not have been-deserved as the criticism mayor may not have been- he was in his own person a perfect flowering of the principles which the fraternities profess to follow and endeavor to inculcate.

3~O THE MAY ARROW

The Historian Requests "Members of the fraternity are urged to give, or lend, to the National Historian for display

at convention, any interesting historical items which they may possess, such as old jewelry, ban­ners, pictures, manuscripts, and letters. All items must be appropriately mounted, and explanatory notes prepared, so please forward at the earliest possible date to

01 Rushing

- Mrs. Oliver B. Simmons 6415 Morningside Drive Kansas City 5, Missou ri "

As usual in the May issue, we give elsewhere lists of alumna! and active rushing chairmen, as well as a rushing blank for your convenience. Please make use of them, if you know girls who are going to any college where Pi Phi has a chapter, and please use them wisely. With every passing year rushing problems multiply, especially as to legacies, since each year a new group of daughters, sisters, and even granddaughters, goes to coUege. Their numbers are running SO

high that sheer mathematics shows the impossibility of taking all the legacies who come. What are we to do about the problem? What is our responsibility in making recommendations? Surely it is a grave one. It is natural for all of us to want to see the daughters of our friends wearing the Arrow. Yet we must recognize the fact that in the course of years chapters change in type; that a girl may not be happy in a chapter just because it was her mother's, yet might be congenially situated in some other group; that a girl's friends may be joining some other house; that there may be many reasons why a chapter may not like a girl well enough to bid her, without there being anything against her character. All these things must be considered, and besides alumn", must realize that finally it is the chapter which must live with a girl, which must take the responsibility of guiding her college career. All these things must be part of our thinking as we consider recom· mending girls. That we are not doing this now is shown by the trail of hurt feelings among alumnz when rushing is over, and their favorites have perhaps joined some other house, or none at all. That is the time to think of the problems which chapters face in rushing season. Suppose a chapter has a quota of thirty, and 32 legacies of varying degrees of kinship? An exaggerated case of course, yet something like it could easily happen when we know that in the large uni­versities chapters have many hundreds of recommended girls to consider! It is amazing that they make as few mistakes as they do, with so many to know, and to judge.

The post-rushing period calls for fine sportsmanship, for acceptance of the decisions of the chapters-only so will we avoid lasting scars in the fabric of our fraternity life.

We·ve said something very like this before, but it seems necessar to say it every year, so that we may think of the real purpose of rushing-to build chapters 0 real strength, fine congenial groups of girls working and playing happily together, chapters which will do honor to our name.

PI PHI DAY IN

Mn. Chules Spc:ncH CarTcr ( Former Pau, Keilty, TClUIJ B)

Pi Phi Day In Dallas BJ PATRlCIA GAltROTT, Texas B

F EBRUARY 29 could have been called Pi Phi Day in the Dallas Morning News women's

section. On the lirst page of the section were

pictures of four of Dallas' loveliest and most prominent young matrons-all Pi Phis, all Texas Betas. They were Mmes Charles S. Sharp, William H. Fleming, Jr., Charles Spencer Carver, Jr ., and Alfred Gordon Lucky. Their pictures were harbingers of spring, be­cause each one was modelling a frilly new bonnet.

Two other Texas Betas had their pictures

on inside pages of the section. They were Mrs. William E. Waters and Miss Mary Jean John· son, and they, too, were chosen to model new hats because of both their pulchritude and their activities in Dallas social life.

Mrs. Simpson has hastened to point out that being a Pi Phi didn't inBuence her when she chose these young socialites to model for her-it was just that being lovely and being a Pi Phi seem to coincide in these parts!

From Miss Onken's Province President Letter

A fraternity has been established in a Scottish University. Who knows, perhaps some time we'll be having an International Panhellenic as well as a National one. Nova Scotia A recently gave a most successful benelit bridge for the scholarship which it offers each year for some Canadian girl who win come to Dalhousie. Vermont B's pledges are certainly nothing if not energetic. Last year's pledges reo cently had a Swap Shop project and used the money to buy cushions for the window seats, while the hold·over pledges have taken as their project the painting of the chapter room and its fucnitu~e. Veemont B has three Mortar Boards, two editors and the circulation manager of Aerial, four of the editors of Cynic, and the vice-president and four members of the Student Union Council. New York r has had an election to the honorary biology society and it has the associate editor of the college humor magazine. Ontario B did something very nice when shortly before the holidays it had a Christmas·at·home for the members of the other women's fraternity chapters on the campus. Over one hundred fraternity girls enjoyed that party.

Maryland A has just learned that it held first place on the scholarship report last spring. One of Ohio A's pledges is the lirst freshman to be elected to the debate honorary. A number of chapters have recently won volleyball tournaments. One of these is Ohio E which has also had an election to Who's Who and which recently cleared $100 at a benelit bridge, and added $31 to its funds through the sale of old papers and magazines. Ohio Z has the secretary-treasurer of Women ' s League, and four members of the Council. Michigan B has had an election to Scroll, the social activities honorary. A member of Indiana A was Queen of the Snow Ball at the A X A pledge dance. Indiana r has the president of the Commerce Club and the president and secretary of Spurs. Six sophomore members of Indiana l:J. received Mortar Board recognition and the chapter has had one election to Who' s Who. The II ~ at Purdue followed Theta's good example in giving a dinner for all chapter presidents on the campus, by giving one for all chapter rush captains.

CUESTA

Gasparilla COUll."t

of 1947

CJ AMPA PHI PHIS were very proud of the selection of Nonita Cuesta, Fla . Gamma, J as a maid in the Gasparilla Court of 1947. This is the first Gasparilla season since the outbreak of the War. For three days, beginning with the Pirates' Invasion and climaxed by the elaborate Ball, Tampa is in a carnival spirit.

Nonita was presented at the Ball, her dark beauty highlighted by the beautiful white velvet and rhinestone dress. She carried a lovely fan, fashioned with white velvet and rhinestone trim. centered with white orchids.

Christn1as m Delhi, India By DoRIS LEE FLETCHER CARWICK, Ohio A

OF THE four hundred million f'<'Ople of India only six million arc Chnstians,

many of whom date back to pre· British times in communities of south India said to have been converted by St. Thomas, a contemporary of Ch rist. Yet the holiday mood is infectious and all the Indian and European population take part in it. Then the ever present "baksheesh" (the gimmers to us) is at this time more than amply handed out, and most willingly received .

For the week previous to Christmas all the stores and hundreds of street vendors display everything they think the Christians wish to buy from awful junk to lovely silverware and carved woods.

As I walk around Connaught Circus, the shopping area of New Delhi, flower wallas are seUing huge branches of mistletoe and holly for eight annas (16 cents). At the government nursery a .mall boy follows me around the gardens and cuts the flowers that I designate. At this time of year I buy two dozen large red roses for our tree and pay the ridiculous sum of 40 cents. Regardless of the seasonal growth at home in U .S., all kinds of flowers like pansies, chrysanthemums, sweet peas, gladiolas grow here in rrofusion during the three winter months 0 November, December, and January. Evergreen trees are ordered in October and flown down from the hills of the Himalayas in time for Christmas.

For Christmas presents I go to Chandi Chowk in Old Delhi, the largest, filthiest, most crowded, most fascinating bazaar in all India. Side streets the width of a car have hundreds of holes in the walls used as silver shops. Any· thing you wish can be made in silver and the work is done by craftsmen sitting on the rickety porch of the store. Bargaining on price is the sport of the East and lots of fun can be bad by the tradesman and yourself, providing you each give in a little. In other parts of the Chowk you can purchase Tibetan brassware supposedly taken from old temples, woodwork from Kash· mir, silks and saris from Benares, and the usual junk and trash famous in this country.

On Christmas Eve the candle-lit sitting room is decorated with poinsettias, holly, and mistle· toe. We set up our six foot artificial Christmas tree brought out from the states and since orna­ments are difficult to get, the tree has colored lights and the branches are tied with beautiful red roses. This custom of real roses on the tree has come down through the centuries from the birth of Christ. The story is that when Christ was born all the trees burst into lovely Bowers.

Guests for the evening are friends from all over the world who are in India working for their governments or in commercial enterprise. Tom and Jerries are served with delicious Swiss fruit cake and Santa Claus (Father OJristmas) in the shape of my husband is M.e.

Christmas morning is heralded by the shrieks of our small son trying out his new toys and the coming of our servants. Our bearer (the delightful servant who governs the house) is dressed in his annual European blue serge suit (handed down to him by a former Sahib) and his shirt tails hanging below the coat. It is much cooler wearing your shirt like this and it is the forerunner of the now popular tropical bush shirt. All the servants will be wearing gayly. colored turbans on their heads and handing us cakes, candies, and flowers. During the day our Indian friends will call and leave large baskets of fruit, sweets, liquor, lovely tiny nose· gays of Bowers and garlands of floral leis.

In the evening is the annual hotel dinner and dance. The dining room is decorated like a spring garden with baskets of Bowers hanging from the dozens of overhead fans and trellises of flowers along the walls; and a lovely scene of the snow capped mountains of the Himalayas painted by a young boy of one of the servants will be the backdrop to the orchestra. Food especially raised for the occasion will be served from turkey to brandy·flamed fruit pudding. Everyone will be dressed "to the teeth" and in a gay mood. The popular Costermonger dances imported into India during the war by the British Tommies will be the vogue, the Lambeth Walk, a rowdy Palaise glide, Bumps·a-Daisy

where you slap your knees, clap hands and bump your partner's bumfiddle.

As the finishing touch to the grand day all gather in one large circle and clasp hands and sing Christmas Carols ending with Auld Lang

And this is our Christmas in Delhi, the capital of India.

Hope for Japan-Her Wo.men By MARIE RICHARDS BYERS, Ohio B

MRS. BVERS is the wilt 0/ Major General C/o'IJis Byt rs, el) l' A, Ohio Slale and W tJI Poinl, for two years Chitf oj Staff of the 81h Am'1 in TOkyO. He haJ rec"al} rtlNrned 10 ~ommand the 82ml Airborne Division al ForI Bragg, wilh h,aJqNarlers in COlllmbNJ~ Ohio.

I T HAD been almost two years since my son, Clayton, and I left the United States to

take up our family life with my husband in Japan. After many interesting experiences in the occupation we were returning to our be­loved Country.

It is difficult to describe the depth of emo· tion which engulfs one as she gazes upon her native land after such an absence.

I feel it has hem a privilege to have been able to participate even in a small way in the rebuilding of a country. And there is a real challenge to every American woman going to J apan.

The Japanese women need our help and our guidance. We need to be patient and under· standing.

We feel the salvation of Japan is in its women. In the first place they have taken hold with enthusiasm for and understanding of the help which our women are trying to give them.

They are learning to work together in such things as betterment of schools, churches, func· tioning in the home and municipal life. They are learning to help one another in time of disaster, such as the earthquakes and floods which are so prevalent in Japan.

In my opinion one of the biggest drawbacks in Japan has hem the attitude "every man for himself." The Japanese for the first time are learning to help each other to work toJ1dher and to share outside the limits of the family system. There has previously heen cooperation only within the family.

It was interesting to learn in every commu­nity where these women were earnestly work­ing, their questions put to our organizations were always the same:

" How may we do our part in better keeping our husbands in the home?

" How may we help to better conditions in the schools for our children ?

"May we know more about woman's place in the government?"

These questions were answered by women' s g roups under our Women's Clubs.

When we first arrived it was distressing to me to see the great masses of humanity (for they move in masses) surging about the streets and countryside, almost every Japanese woman with a baby strapped to her back, the husband walking in front of her with light bundles while she carried the heavier ones.

Then a year later the scene began to change. A woman could he seen walking beside her husband, many times he would have the baby strapped to his back while she pushed the cart or carried. in some cases, lighter bundles.

We realized this new state of affairs had taken place from observing the way of Ameri­can life in the occupation forces. Western man­ners and dress are wholeheartedly accepted by the younger generation in Japan. Women quickly accepted the right of suffrage given them by the new constitution. The huge femi­nine vote resulted in a number of women se­curing seats in the Diet. This new entrance into the masculine preserves, initially brought a number of petty acts from the male members intended to embarrass their feminine col­leagues.

Several very annoying incidents occurred be· fore the better nature of the male members caused them to vote for the rules of conduct presented by the women. Since then proper decorum has been observed. The pride of the American women in Japan is our fine repre· sentative, Mrs. MacArthur. She graces the lovely, pretentious Embassy with her charm, ready smile, and genuine welcome to all who have the ..,,00 fortune to be invited there.

Generar Eichelberger and General Byers made frequent inspection trirs together throughout Japan. When places a unusual in· terest were in the itinerary, Mrs. MacArthur, Mrs. Eichelberger and I were often included. Everywhere we stopped, Jean MacArthur evi· denced a genuine ana intelligent interest in the discussions which took place during our meet·

ings with local officials. An oft repeated question which has been pre·

sented to me since my return is "How do we account for the cheerful attitudes with which the Japanese accept the control of the Occupa· tion Forces ?" This is found in the fact that, while many individuals in local and national offices have been replaced and a new constitution has been accepted, the basic pattern of daily Japanese life has undergone the minimum of change.

The seasonal agrarian festivals. so dear to the hearts of all simple agricultural people are continuing with renewed enthusiasm and many old festivals have been revived.

Shortly after our arrival in Japan we were at tbe beautiful Fujiga Hotel at Miyanosbita not far from the base of Fujiyama, the sacred mountain of Japan, during the festival cele­brating the "harvest of the rice." The entire population of the countryside participated in the event of the holiday. The ceremonial dances

with their slow measured shuffle, ancient cos­tumes and the antics of those who animated the huge paper animals so essential in all Japanese celebrations-were particularly interesting.

The spontaneity of such ceremonies could come only from a bappy people. The agrarian reforms which are causing the gradual redis­tribution of land from the estates of the wealthy to the farmers themselves are bringing renewed hope. And then the availability of the required amount of American food at offi­cial prices to complete a minimum diet com­bines with the points mentioned above to es­tablish the fact that this occupation is unusual in the annals of history.

The Occupation policy has been firm, intel­ligent and humanitarian. Given a continuation of this life for a reasonable period in the fu­ture, the Japanese people will present to the world a completely acceptable nation anxious to share its part in an orderly existence.

362 THE MAY ARROW

From Virginia Fairleigh Challlpion,

Missouri A, CaIne This Letter 1 Ashburn Place, London, S. W. 7 February 21, 1948

Thank you for your gracious letter and for the two recent issues of the ARROW which ac­rived yesterday. I have read them with interest and more than anything else had done for a long time, they took me back to myoid coun· try, the United States.

You asked me to write a short synopsis of what I have been doing in the last ten years; that is a rather large order, for I have covered so much territory and done so many different things that it is not easy to boil it down to a few short sentences. However, I shall try to be brief.

Whee last the ARROW had word of me I was working at B. Altman & Co. as assistant Ad· vertising Manager in New York and was mac­ried to an American. In 1938 I left Altman and joined McCall magazine to do Fashion Pub· licity for them. In that capacity I travelled con· siderably about the country and even went to the West Indies and Venezuela. So entranced was I with the West Indies and particularly Trinidad, that I determined to go back and to start a business of my own there. So, in Au­gust 1939 I set forth to open a dress sbop in Port of Spain. Soon after that I was di· vorced. The business thrived and I had many amusing and sometimes harrowing experiences in connection with it, especially with the U­Boat campaign, which was raging in those waters during the wac.

In 1940 I married an Englisb Naval officer, a civil engineer by profession, who was sta­tioned on the Island. The wedding was at the home of the American Consul and he and bis wife acted as witnesses. We remained in Trini­dad for three years, during which time the business grew into a Limited Company and eventually opened a second, branch shop. We had as customers members of Government House and many oil tield officials as well as Americans stationed at the Army and Naval bases.

At the end of 1942 by hushand was trans· ferred to Ottawa, Canada, and I followed. There I got a war job with the Inspection Board of the U.K. and Canada in charge of fourteeo hundred office personnel. Finally I took a few months off to give birth to OUr little boy, Bill, who is now nearly four years old. When he was three months old, I went

back to work, after seeing him safely in the hands of a wonderful Nannie who is still with us.

Just after V·E Day my husband was sent to England and I, with the nurse and baby went to New York where I had been sent for by the British Admiralty Delegation to take over their Stores Movement Section. There I had an im­pressive office on the twenty·second floor of a Wall Street office building with a barrage of telephones, including a direct line to Wash· ington and a host of secretaries and stenogra­phers. But since war soon ended, I had little to do and to wbile away the time I started writing a book. The book has since been finished and is now wandering hopefully around from pub· lisher to publisher.

Finally In December 1945, we too sailed for England on the Q'I<m· Mary that was then still acting as a troop ship. We arrived in London on Christmas Eve, and went to a house belong· ing to my husband's family that bad not been lived in for live years and that consequently was 6lled with dust and cob·webs and dripping with damp. Those tirst few months in England were too much of a nightmare to repeat, but at last we found a really attractive flat in Ken· sington and settled down.

Once more I went back to work; this time as Promotion Manager of a big textile design. ing and Couture House. I am still there and loving it. The British are charming people, courteous and friendly and I have grown to really love England. In my spare time I con· tinue to write, mostly magazine articles, as they have a more ready sale, but also I am struggling with a second novel while the fate of my tirst one remains still undecided.

We bave trips to the Continent as often as possible and I manage to get to Paris and Brus· sels on business now and then.

That, very roughly, is my story, but I would like to take this opportunity to say hello to my many old friends and to ask them to write if they bave time. One tends to get out of touch when one moves about as much as I have done, but now I really believe we are settled, so the above address should reach me for quite awhile.

With best wishes to you all in Pi Beta Phi, Sincerely,

VIRGINIA FAIRLEIGH CHAMPION, MiuoNri A

Meta Schattschneider Resigns

It is unusull for a person to endear herself to a community in the short time of eighteen months to the extent that "Miss Meta" did­Arrowcraft, the Settlement School and Gatlin­burg all feel her loss. In choosing a weaving supervisor the Committee felt that the person should be a master craftsman in weaving with a line appreciation and understanding of people. !>he should possess a deep enthusiasm for ber work and the ability to transmit this enthusiasm to the women with whom she would work. She should bave infinite patience and kindli­ness and be able to gain the confidence and f riendsbip of the mountain people.

School and Community Highlights

Gatlinburg again has a little newspaper. Mr. Postlewaite of the Mounlain PrtJJ bas pub. lished five issues of 1 small sheet called The Gal/inburg Prtu. It is an excellent paper and a badly needed addition to the town.

The Gateway Stock Company had a most successful season in Gatlinburg this summer. They used the Pi Phi auditorium and were most professiOnal in their presentations. It was a distinct advantage to the community to have such a good company there.

The School has a large enrollment this year; 140 in the High School and 348 in the Ele­mentary School. Conditions warranted an extra teacher in the grades and the County hired Mrs. Ingle to teach one of the lirst grade rooms. There ace now two first grade rooms, two for the second grade and from there on up to the High School one grade to a room.

The Gatlinburg P.T.A. is very active. One meeting was held in the evening with a number of fathers in attendance. They served coffee and daughnuts to a good crowd. It was an­nounced that they had cleared over $2000.00 00 the Bingo games during the summer.

Perhaps the most thrilling news item about

Miss Meta truly met all these requirements. One has only to see her ~autjfu1 designs, h~r dreams and colors put into execution by Pi Beta Phi's long roster of weavers to fully realize.her success. Her lovely all linen luncheon set, "Queen's Lace" recently won third place in a craft exhibit that was held at the Univer­sity of Tennessee. The Shop and the weavers will truly miss ber but will be constantly reo minded of her as her lovely designs are used.

Miss Meta resigned to accept a position on the Art Faculty of Highlands University in Las Vegas, New Mexico.

the School is the fact that construction is going forward steadily on the new Health Center. It is to have an exterior similar to the Arrowcraft Shop, of stooe and shingle, and a slate roof. Truly this will be a Pi Phi Dream, wrought of lasting materials.

read about and not actually seen "in the Besh," it remained for some of the province officers more or less unreal till the day we arrived in Gatlinburg. Since it was in vacation, the chil· dren were missing from their classrooms and ' dormitories, but their places were taken by the students at the Summer Work Shop, and the whole place was teeming with life and action. Going through under the expert guidance of Mildred Sale, and hearing the explanations of all phases of the work made it come alive. The words so often said, "The county is reo sponsible for the upkeep of the plant and for the salaries of teachers of the fundamental subjects, but we supplement the reading, writ· ing and arithmetic by supplying some of the extras which we, in city schools, have come to take for granted for our children, extras such as Physical Education, Music, Arts and Crafts. These, plus our very vital H ealth programme, the operation of the dormitories, and the Adult Education carried on by us for years, must remain Pi Phi's responsibility," came to take on new meaning when we heard the Music teacher tell of the place in the lives of the children filled by the record player bought last year from the money contributed to the Me­morial Fund. Just to hear of the children's loving music so deeply that they come in during their lunch hours and beg to hear records played, made us realize the possibilities there. Mrs. Armstrong told us bow she encouraged and cul­tivated their marvelous heritage of folk music yet added to it the knowledge of the world 's great music by playing records. Recently they

A Few Pi Phi Weavers

My being a mountain person helps me to know and understand the actual conditions and circumstances of our weavers much better than if I had known them only a short time. I am telling you about some of the ones I have been especially interested in.

Curtis Sutton and his wife, Martha, are two of our very good weavers. We lirst employed Martha because we found she needed the work SO much. We found, upon visiting her in her home and helping her get started with her weaving, that she was most deserving and real­ly needed the help. Mr. Sutton is a mountain preacher. We did not meet him until after Martha had been weaving for some time. He decided that he would also like to weave and we gave him a warp of towels which he did very well. We have been needing 'ao extra coverlet weaver for some time and thought that

had come in and asked if they might have Rhap. Iody in Blue, a far cry from their old English folk tunes. So when someone suggested that we leave a money gift, each one gladly contributed to a fund for more records or whatever seemed most needed.

The librarian's story of the building of the library was just as interesting, and one of the most interesting talks of all we heard, was Miss Meta's explanation of the way designs for the weaving are evolved, and her story of the various weavers and their specialities. Mes. Snow's talk on the business end of Arrowcraft sales struck a responsive note in anyone who had ever served as Chairman of an Arrowcraft sale. Whenever we could sneak any time off, we found ourselves going back to the Arrow· craft Shop and drooling over the beautiful drop leaf table set with pale pink and white Whig. Rose mats, linen napkins with pink border to match, pink and blue sprigged china, and pale blue glasses. Was it any wonder that most peo· pie visiting the shop that week seemed to be buy. ing pink mat sets!

So often the anticipation of any visit is better than the actual experience itself, but this was one time when no slightest uace of disi1Jusionment marred the visit, and we came away with nothing but an immense pride in our accomplishment, and a determination to work hard for its continued growth and im· provement.

THERESA GIBSON GRAHAM, Kappa Province Vice·President

Mr. Sutton might be a solution to this problem. He went to work and made himself the neces· sary wide loom. We gave him the thread for the coverlet warp with great hopes that we would soon be having more coverlets. Much to our dismay, we found that his loom was too weak for the wide warp. After he had struggled through one warp he was discouraged and wanted to change back to linen towels.

Cora Morton, one of our "Old Stand·bys" for years, decided that she would try her luck with coverlets. She bought herself a wide loom and is now ready to start weaving. We hope that nothing wiII happen to her and that she will be able to help Lula Mae with some of the coverlet orders. Cora has a daughter, Jane, who learned to weave while in High School from the Pi Phi Craft teacher, Miss Petrie. Sbe is one of a large family and is staying

THE MAY ARROW 365

home to help her mother. She has taken over the weaving of Whig-Rose table mats so they stiJJ come from that household.

Cannie Owenby, another weaver who has been weaving for us for years, has a blind bus· band to support. I often think of the time she started working for us. She was having such a difficult time; she had no way to earn money and they were baving to live with a married daughter. She would come in to the weaving room and tell us what a time she was having and weep while she was talking. I felt sorry for her but at times, I'll admit, I wished she didn't have to unburden her troubles to me. I guess the poor soul felt she had to talk to someone. After she started weaving and earn·

ing money she and her busband moved out in a house by themselves. They now have a garden for their vegetables, ~ few chickens, and with the money she earns from her weaving they seem to be getting along very well. She is like a new person now, always in a jolly mood, nevee coming to the shop to tell us her troubles. All she needed was a chance and with her weav­ing she bas had that chance. She told me some time ago if she could find a bouse she could alford she planned to buy one. I think tbe weaving has meant as much to her as to any one of the weavers, in fact I think it has meant more.

Guest Lounge at Holt House

A T LONG last, the guest room on the second .L\.. floor of Holt House is really ready to welcome visitors! And how it hopes that many Pi Beta Phis, on their way to or from conven­tion, this summer, will drop in to enjoy it.

The photographs of the room will leave you in no doubt about its being an attractive, rest· f ul spot in which to relax for a moment, while you are seeing the house, or are a guest at one of the delightful social affairs SO often held at Holt House. The wallpaper is of a conven· tional, early American period pattern, and its colors of blue and white, with dots of red, are reflected in the coverings of the furniture and in the lovely, handmade rugs. The furniture, chosen with the interested help of Miss Lama Welch of Carson Pirie &ott's, is of sturdy and Jurable maple, and the cushions on the chairs

and the dressing table bench are of chintz in the Old Bear pattern, a reproduction of one of the very early chintz patterns of our Country. The sofa cushions are red, matching the shade in the flowered chintz and the dots in the wall· paper. The windows are framed with em­broidered, ruJlIed curtains which boast full valances of the chintz. Five small, antique. flowered prints, discovered in the French quarter of New Orleans, hang above the sofa.

This bright, cherry guest lounge truly is the exemplification of the spirit of warm hos­pitality and charm, which characterizes the Fraternity's beautiful memorial to its Found­ing, Holt House!

Come to see and enjoy it! GLADYS STUMP NALL Chairman Holt HOllIe CommiUtt

PORTER, AcrolJ The lJ7ide Miuopri, Houghton Mifllin Co., 483 pp.

National attention was accorded this his­torical work, by an author of no little renown, when it was published last fall, but many Pi Phis undoubtedly read the laudatory reviews

• MAE RIII!D PORTER

and the book itself without knowing that it lias a very special interest for them. Much of the research material used by Mr . DeVoto and many Qf the fascinating illustrations were pro­vid~ by Mae Reed Porter, an Iowa Gamma Pi Phi.

The entire book, which deals with moun­tain men and the Rocky Mountain fur trade iii the middle nineteenth century, was deemed of such importance that The New Y o,k TimtJ of November 2, 1947 gave a Struthers Burt discussion of it lead position in its Sunday bOok review section. Burt declared, "This is Bernard DeVoto at his best," and Orville Prescott, TimeJ daily critic, said on October 27, " ... certainly one of the half dozen best historical works of the year:'

Referring to the Alfred Jacob Miller paint­ings, which Mrs. Porter discovered ten years ago in the dusty attic of the Baltimore Museum and which she made available to DeVoto, Prescott also said : '·Their presence adds im­measurably to the beauty and interest of this book and insures that it will rank high among the handsome picture books of the year as well as among histories."

390

"Across The Wide Missouri" is a feast for discursive appetites, but, bearing in mind the special interest of this column's audience, our further attention will be given to Mes. Porter's share in this ambitious and stimulating project. It is a story in itself.

Mrs. Porter's interest in western history is one of long standing, and, consequently, it was a memorable day when she found the Miller paintings in the attic of the museum which was originally the home of the artist Rem­brandt Peale. As the reproductions in the book indicate, the paintings are distinguished by the clarity of detail, the capturing of the variable color found in western United States, and the absence of any static quality.

In view of this it is particularly interesting that, as substantiated by Mrs. Porter's research, the paintings were really made as spot sketches to be used later as the basis for large oils. Young Miller, in the cole of what today might be a Life photographer, was hired by Sir Wil­liam Drummond Stewart of Perth, Scotland, to make the sketches in an 1837-38 expedition west.

Writes Mrs. Porter: "Two hundred were made showing the beautiful lakes and moun­tains and the customs of the Indians and trap­pers, and they were only to be used as patterns for a later painting in oils-<>f very large pictures to grace the walls of Sir WiIliam·s Castle Murthly in Perth-<>n the grounds of which were the oaks of Bienam's Wood of 'Macbeth: ..

Having found the sketches and purchased one hundred of them, Mrs. Porter embarked on years of research into the expedition and the entire period. This led to a lecture series illustrated by color slides of the paintings as well as to the DeVoto book. Also, together Mrs. Porter and her husband are at work on three additional books, which stem fcom this same research and will COncern other aspects of the same phase of American history.

The little paintings, valuable in themselves, have indeed been the seeds of even richer harvests.

AUTHOR INTEREST: From the enthusi­astic Kansas City alumn., club, which is proud to claim her, and from Mrs. Porter herself the

THE MAY ARROW 391

following information has been collected. Born in Texas, brought up in Des Moines, and edu­cated at Iowa State College, Mae Reed married Oyde Porter, an Ames A TO, and went farther west to live on an Idaho ranch. There her inter­est in early western history was stimulated by the various Indian relics which were f re­quently discovered on the ranch property.

Later the Porters moved to Glasgow on the banks of the broad Missouri and eventually to Kansas City. and in both places she expanded her interest and knowledge. Natural develop. ments of her work and the urge to share her interests with others were feature articles done for the Kansas City Star and lectures.

Collecting was another natural development, and in addition to the paintings and a variety of Indian relics, she possesses the largest pri­vately owned collection of Presidential Indian Peace Medals in existence.

Research, writing. a husband, two children, and three grandchildren do not, however, con­sume all of Mrs. Portee' 5 time. She is or has been one of the founders and a trustee of the Kansas City Museum, treasurer of the Friends of Art, organizer of the Friends of Libraries, chairman of the American Trails Association, state vice-president of the D.A.R., Kansas City Commissioner for the Girl Scouts, and twice president of the Kansas City Alumn., Club of Pi Beta Phi .

DoROTHY MCCLEARY, CredJive Fir/ion Writing, The Writer, Inc., 147 pp.

No one who has ever tried to write a short story, or any variety of fiction for that matter will wonder why there should be a good market for the kind of book Dorothy McCleary has written. For the young or untried writer it could well be the guiding light to a successful career in the field . For the established author it may help eliminate some of the more tortu­ous sections of the path to each completed work.

As the writer says in her preface: "I have tried to write here the kind of book which I myself would like to have read twenty-five years ago, when I was fumbling to find the way to write short stories . .. . "

It would be foUy to assume that perusal of the book will make a competent or even a passable writer of each reader. However, for those who have the inspiration and the urge to write fiction there is much assistance in "Creative Fiction Writing." Miss McCleary explores many of the qualities that make a story good, that attract or repell a reader, and she includes numerous suuestions that should cut

down the amount of waste time and the num­ber of false starts that plague many writers.

WIth equal merit her book is capable of guiding an individual Or a cJass in creative writing.

AUTHOR I TEREST: Born in Washing­ton, D.C., Dorothy McCleary became a memo ber of D.C. Alpha and, after completing her formal education, a writer of note. In addi-

DoROTHY M CCLEARY

tion to contributing short stories to The New Yorker, Sto,y, and Harper's Bazaar, she has written three novels, one winner of the Story­Doubleday prize contest in 1934, has had ber work represented in the O'Brien Best Short Stories, O. Henry Memorial Prize Award Stories, and in other anthologies, and at pres­ent is working on another novel.

One of her own aids to writing is referred to in this remark: "Have been writing for about twenty-five years-for fifteen years bave used the same patent pencil and would prob­ably have a mental collapse if I "",er lost same or if it got out of order."

Another successful husband and wife team, Florence and Francis Jaques have not only ex' plored nature to their own delight, but also have made its charms real for those of us who stay at home. This journey into the Canadian Rockies and the prairies is, as is customary in the Jaques books, recorded jointly by Florence's pen and Francis' brush and in both aspects is a joy to the reader.

Mrs. Jaques bas an easy-going, readable nar­rative style and thus she carries the reader along

on the trip as pleasantly as a canoe in a gentle current. She makes her reactions yours and thus you thrill with her at the first sight of yellow. headed blackbirds looking like "a Bock of dandelions" or at the peaceful, unfortiiied boundary line between Canada and the States. Whatever the experience, there is a spirit of sharing that makes the book a warming one for anyone to read, though, naturally, it will have special appeal to those with a fondness for the out·of·doors and the birds and animals who are its citizens.

AUTHOR INTEREST: Florence Page Jaques, IUinois Eta, has written numerous nature books which her husband, once a staff artist at the American Museum of Natural His· tory, illustrates. Among previously published books are Canoe Country, The Geese Fly High, and SnowJhoe CountfY_

Helen Harrington Compton, Ohio r '12, former Providence presicknt, and president of the Washington Alumni Club, Washington, D.C., is making just the kind of college president's wife that we would expect from her Pi Phi record. She and Dr. Compton have been at Washington State CoUege since January I, 1946, and she has certainly proved the truth ef the prophecy made by a member of the President's cabinet who said when he heard that the Compton's were going to Washington State College that the college WlJ fortunate that they were getting "Two for the price of one."

"Milestones in the Life of Edwin Lee Holton" is the title of an article in the Kansas T earher, by Helen DeVinny Ankenny, of the State Board of Vocational Education of Kansas. Mrs. Ankenny writes of a truly inspiring career of a great Educator, especially interesting in these days when the teaching profes­sion is so much in public discussion. Summit of his career was his position as Dean of Education and Dean of the Summer School at Kansas State College, a place he retired from last summer; he will however con­tinue his work as professor of educational psychol­ogy in that college. The article doses with this trib.­ute to Dr. Holton:

"Dean Holton., a great man, a great thinker. a great educator, but greatest of all. a great gentleman, casual and friendly. but tough as a boot. Who would say that the field of education does not offer excel­lent opportunity for investment in a fruitful life ?"

Sophie Woodman of New York

SOPHIE PARSONS WOODMAN, New York Beta, has retired from New York City to

live at her "Side Door" home in Connecticut. In Fehruary the desire to create that others may enjoy decided Sophie to close her Greenfield home foe the season, and sent her on a trip to Mexico with May KeJier, one time Grand Presi­dent of Pi Beta Phi. When they return, the New York Alumna:: Club hopes to have the privilege of enjoying "a trip to Mexico" through her color pictures.

Sophie Woodman has quietly, but effec­tively, guided Pi Phis in altruism. When Barnard College knew fraternities, Sophie was in the first group of initiates. At that time her energies were already concerted toward the benefits Pi Pbi could contribute to a community.

Her clear thinking has been an asset both to the New York Alumn., Club and to the national fratecnity. Sophie has been a fre­quent delegate to many conventions, and has also illustrated the "Social Side" of conven­tions. The Alumnz Executive Board has profited through her membership in every of­fice, from a Member at Large to President. The ARROW has published Sophie's scenic photography and at one time she was Alum­n'" Editor of the ARROW. Before that, Fra­ternity Study and Examination used her serv· ices as Chairman.

In the "Twenties," a group of New York Fraternity women aspired to build a hotel in which to house young girls who were visiting in New York City. Again, Sophie led her Pi Phi friends to become an integral part of the monument to Fraternity women . Beekman Tower Hotel is the accomplishment.

Florence Chase Cass, Michigan Alpha, ex­presses our sentiments in the following verse

which she wrote to Sophie in behalf of the New York Alum"", Club.

SOPHIE PARSONS WOODMAN

She hath been to us a good sheperdess, Of hee Bock 50 watchful. From her tower Perched fae above the city's din and stress, Hath she planned foe us full many an houe In the night watches, wooing sleep in vain, Ever thinking of Pi Phi's needs anew; Perhaps with a head aweary with pain, Wondering ever, other things to do. Out of these plans she hath hewn with much caee Others may build. Who even dareth say Dreams may not come true of genius rare Moulding Pi Phi in a glorious way!

Aye, Monmouth maids that day, so long ago, Never dreamed of the Pi Phi we now know.

By EDITH CALB THORNTON. Indiana B

National director of services for the deaf-blind for the American Foundation for the Blind is the eminent position recently assumed by Dorothy Davis Bryan, Texas B. the former state supervisor of sight conserva­tion work for the Tennessee Department of Welfare, in Nashville. Tennessee. Mrs. Bryan, a native of Dallas, Texas, is uniquely fitted by her broad back:­ground of education and social service for this special­ized work on a nation-wide scale. In addition to her underAtaduate work at Southern Methodist University and the University of New Mexico, where she took her A.B. degree in 1926, MJ"S. Bryan did graduate work in education at George Peabody College for Teachers, took special training for sight conservation work at the University of Cincinnati and further preparation foe work with the adult blind at Western Reserve University in Cleveland. Her teaching experi­ence included several years in the Nashville public schools prior to 1938 when she became the teacher of the city's first sight-saving class which she con­ducted until 1943. At that time the Tennessee State Department of Welfare established a Division of Services for the Blind. and, upon the death of the director of Sight Conservation, Mrs. Bryan was ap­pointed supervisor of Prevention of Blindness and Sight Restoration in the new Division. Her duties there, however, were not limited to sight conservation but included various activities in relation to rehabilita­tion of the blind and supervision of home teaching service.

Mrs. Bryan's position, in which she works directly with Helen Keller. is concerned primarily with ini­tiating a co-oedinated national program for the deaf­blind. Her duties take her all over the country assist­ing the various state and local agencies in locating and registering the unknown deaf-blind and in lifting them out of their silent darkness by establishing a means of communication through rehabilitation, edu­cation and vocational training.

Until the American Foundation for the Blind under the guidance of the most courageous and revered of aU deaf-blind, Helen Keller, instituted the present program under Mrs_ Bryan's direction, no over-all

program had been carried on to aid the deaf-blind throughout the nation.

In addition to lack of information as to the location of all the deaf-blind, the foundation has been faced with the problem of educating workers with the blind to take on the added and new responsibilities of helping these people.

Many of the 2,000 known deaf-blind in the United States are located in institutions of various kinds. Some of them even in institutions for the insane where their conditions have been confused with in­sanity or feeblemindedness because of their inability to communicate with the outside world. Many deaf­blind are in homes for the aged, in sanitariums, in orphanages, in corrective schools and in private homes.

At present there are only three schools in the United States with departments for the deaf-blind: at Perkins Institution and Massachusetts School for the Blind, Watertown, Mass.; New York Institute !or the Education of the Blind, New York City, and California School for the Blind, Berkeley, Calif. The deaf-blind are taught to converse by means of the "manual" alphabet. sign language, outlining printed letters in the palm of the victim's hand, air writing. the alphabet glove, Braille hand speech, and an im­proved system of vibration.

In the use of the vibration method, the deaf-blind person places his hand on the spealcer' s face to receive the vibrations which result from the forming of words. This system requires highly specialized training and is taught only in the above mentioned schools.

'"By opening the avenue of communication the deaf-blind are brought into relation with the world and are lifted from an animal existence to that of normal human beings," Mrs. Bryan points out.

Once the deaf-blind are able to communicate with the outside world, they are able to exchange ideas with people and find companionship. Their interests can then be cultivated, their natural talents or acquired abilities can be channeled along useful lines.

If training can be given the deaf-blind early enough, there are many occupations and recreations in which they may artive1, engage. With training, those of

After. rehabilitation period, the deaf·blind usisted by sighted persons .n~ .ble to take walks, 1(0 OD

excursions. picnics, to church. do some gardening, row. swim, mit, dance. bicycle (taOOml). skate, ride horseback, and participate in many other sPOrts. pmes, and handwork.

None of this can be done however, unless trained workers arc able to locate the deaf-blind so des­petately in need of heIr'

"People hear a Jist 0 occupations in which. deaf­blind person may COAl-AC, or listen to descriptions of the iodescribable ioy • deaf·blind ~rson finds in a simple game, without appreciating the stygian gloom in which the deaf·blind must live unless their i50la­tion is broken."

Mrs. Bryan, who is also secrebJ'y of the Inter­national Council for Exctption&1 auldr~ worked tirelessly with the Nashville Alumnr Club of Pi Bet. Phi and was one of the alumnI! instrumental in the foundinA of Tennessee B at Vanderbilt University. She served as Qairroan of the Tennessee B Advisory Board for a number of years and was a member or thru house corporation. Her sound judgment. pa­tience. and graciousness of manner were a positive example to many of the ,!tirls in the active chapter with whom she worked. Mrs. Bryan bas one son,
