WBEN THE NEW MODEL AUTOMOBILE appears fa ~n the market we always wonder just what the manu­e c . rer has stressed in producing this new piece of ~u~~ment. Likewise, it is a source of wonderment to the Seern ership at large as to just wh~t the new Executive th cretary would emphasize. By far the most outstanding tioought to come to mind should concern the organiza­pu 0 that he is serving. In our instance, for all intent and or rpo.se, _it is the undergraduate brothers who are the te!sanlzatton. The service rendered the individual chap­\Vh rnust take preference, for these groups taken as a of ~le are the Fraternity. Without them the actuality the he org~nization does not exist. To the world at large, I>i k are Pt Kappa Phi. Wherever there is a weak chapter, su ~ppa Phi is known to be weak-where there is a -w.:r~or chapter, Pi Kappa Phi is known to be superior. of

1 tt1n the undergraduate chapter lies the breath of life

hill e Fraternity. Without them the road is all down der' Constant improvement in and assistance to the un­aniraduate chapters should have first priority of the time

energy of the Executive Secretary.

ch J~st as the alumnus follows the undergraduate in the un~n of individual growth, the alumni should follow the Ex er&raduates as a point of emphasis in the mind of the or ecu~lve. Secretary. There is no better medicine for an co~a0.1 Zatt~n than that of experience and age which. is l'h·takned.tn the presence of the alumni of the Fratermty. be 15 nowledge should not go to waste. Instead, it should the ~ed wh.erever feasi~le for ·the continuing g.rowth of rna· rater!'uty. We rea!tze that many alumni w1sh to re­ize 1 ~hpass1ve. While honoring their desires we also real­lik at ma_ny alumni, if given the opportunity, would to ~hto contmue an association which has meant so much 6ce em during their undergraduate days. It would suf­cha here to say that second only to the undergraduate alupte~ should come the service to be rendered to the

rnnt.

0 It has been said that no one stands still, you either grow st tou decay. I know of no exceptions to this general al~~rn~nt. Expansion, then, of the undergraduate and tiv 0 1 chapters should take some portion of the Execu­of ef Secretary's schedule. The days of rapid expansion lon rat.ernities that followed the second world war have slog Since passed. For the future we must depend upon mow steady growth. This I believe to occupy the third

st emphasis of the Executive Secretary.

if ~hhere is no doubt in the mind of ymH Editor but that su e above three goals are followed we shall have a

ccessful and prosperous fraternity.

lec~·lsewhere in this issue there appears an assorted col­Pub~?0 ?f articles that have been written for various ~ /cattons. These appeared as a collection first in the

11 e of Theta Chi. The Editor of the Rattle of Theta

l-lov EMBER, 1959

Chi, George Starr Lasher, introduced these articles with the editorial which we have reprinted with Mr. Lasher's approval. Many are the subjects covered, but if you put them together they represent one thought- problems! Problems facing the social fraternities in the United States.

It is not the intent of your Editor to create dissension by publishing them- rather it is his desire to help all of us face the truth.

The ostrich is not a popular bird. In fact, when any­one speaks of this large-feathered-friend it is usually in ridicule. We laugh at his antics and especially his habit of "sticking his head in the sand" to escape. It would seem. he is att~mpti?g to ~sca~e reality. No one is proud of htm for hts actiOns, ltkewtse, no one takes pride in ~e organization ·that fails or refuses to recognize reality, r.e. ·the truth.

The truth of the matter is that social fraternities today face many problems that were not evident a few years back. The greater proportion of the subjects covered in the various articles mentioned are comparatively recent. Many of them date back no further than the 1950's. Some are seriou~ and can preclude a life or death struggle for the Fraterntty system. Others are minor in nature. However, regardless of their severity, put them together and they spell trouble.

It would .be wise to admit at this point that the pres­ent generatiOn holds no monopoly on difficult times. The Founders, and their successors, of all social frater­nities had no "easy row to hoe." However, there is a difference.

The society surrounding our distant past and our im­mediate predecessors provided a stimulus for action. This was evident by the varied and strong courses of ac­tion taken by these individuals in meeting their particular problems. Their society provided for and encouraged the success of the individual's freedom of action. Today we live in a society that demands the repression of the in­dividual and the substituting of equalization therefor. This offers many the excuse to hide their heads in the s~d. Let someone else do it, if it is to be done at all becomes the battle cry. '

One of our current Historians has presented the thought that troubles are God-given. That they are the stimulants whereby someone or some group rises to the occasion and brings forth a solution, this solution re­sulting in a general betterment for all.

The ostrich has no place in a situation such as this. Thus no fraternity has the privilege of playing the ostrich. Carried further, no undergraduate or alumnus fraternity member can. be forgiven for failing to face up to the truth. Ignormg a problem does not solve it. What are the solutions? They remain to be seen, how­ever, for every question there is an answer. The answer cannot be found until the question is asked. This and this alone is the intent of reprinting these articles. •

Letters to the Editors

GOOD WISHES FROM BROTHER HAMER Spartanburg, S C.

Deat· Brother Elam: Many thanks to you for the addi tional copies of The Star and lAmp in wh ich I marred up one page with my mug upon it. It was most thoughtful of you.

It has been a long time since I have had any contact with the Fraternity, but I w ish to congratu late you and the other active ones who have developed it in to the ~plendid Fraternity it is . It has come a long way since 1910 when I first became associated with it.

let us hope that the future years will continue to see it grow. Again thanking you and with every good wish to you all ,

I am, Yours fraterna lly,

QUERY ABOUT BROTHER WAGENER 24 Mount Auburn St. Cambt·idge 38, Mass.

D ea1' Editors: Received the 50th Anniversary Issue and enjoyed it very much . One of the art icles in the J ournal mentioned An­thony Pelzer Wagener as one of the founders of _the Fraternity. Either my memory is very poor, or perhaps I d1dn't lea rn my pledge work too well , but I don't recall hearing of him before. J was under the impression that M essrs. Kroeg, Fogarty, and Mixson were the origina l founders . Any enlig htenment you can send on this subject would be appreciated. Fraternally,

C. W . LEE Gamma, University of California

(EDITOR'S COMMENT: Brother Wagener was one of the seven charter members of Alpha Chapter. H e served the Frater­nity as National President from 1927 to 1934, as National Treas­urer, and was the founder of Xi Chapter at Roanoke College.)

PI KAPP COLLEGE TERMED "SUCCESS" Cornell University Ithaca, N. Y.

D ear Brother Owen: First, I must say that in my opinion the P i Kapp College was a complete success. I lea rned a great deal

d thl from the lectures that you and Greg and Mr. Jones an . , other alumni gave. I felt that Mr. Wilson's talk on rushll~: was a gem, and w hile we cannot use many of his suggested tee

0 niques because of our large and unique rushing sys tem, we c:l make good use of some others.

1 Also, almost as va luab le as the formal part of the Col leg j

were the bull -sess ions with the other representatives. I fk~~p I out about quite a few methods that other chapters use to themselves in good shape. tht

But most important I found out down at Sumter that r· National organization is really an important and v!gorous J,1 ganization. Psi Chapter is a long way from the NatiOnal 0

1 er>

as you know, and there is often a feeling among the brotl 1; up at Psi that the National Office can be disregarded. ThiS something that I wou ld like to do away with. thl

Finally, I wish that you would convey my thanks to h'l alu mni of Sumter for a ll the trouble they went to for us. T party on Monday was a w~>nderfu l thing for them to do. hiS

I hope that we will see e1ther you or Paul Perry somet1rne I Fall. Yours in Pi Kappa Phi .

All Roads Lead to Pi Kapp College "THIS MEETING has carried a great impact on my

thinking and planning and a healthy one too," thus one officer summed up PI KAPP COLLEGE.

The purpose and idea behind PI KAPP COLLEGE was to create an Officers Workshop on a National level for a concentrated leadership program. In the past, re­gional programs had been conducted by the National Fraternity, but their effect had been diluted by shortness of time of such programs worked into a week end and, also, by the fact thrut since such large numbers attended each program, a specialized format was awkward to de­velop. Thus the thinking behind PI KAPP COLLEGE was conceived and developed over the years. The final decision of offering sud1 a program was a bold step on the National Council's part ; but a wise one for it was a meeting designed to help and serve the undergraduate chapters. No laws were to be evaluated or changed, for that is the task of a Supreme Chapter Meeting. PI KAPP COLLEGE was to go into the basic fundame ntal steps and procedures of running a good chapter and develop­ing a good and useful brotherhood. This was its purpose and this it did do.

Two Summer Camps near the National Office at Sumter, S. C. , were sefected for the initial 1959 session

Those failing to have representatives amve were the University of Ala­bama, Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, Roanoke College, Newark College of Engineering, University of Cali­fornia, Brooklyn Polytechnic Institute, University of South Carolina, and McNeese State College.

The general theme of 'the meeting was, if any one idea can be named, the developing of a useful brother­hood and Fraternity, the evaluation and training of a Gentleman, and a review of the conduct and place of Fraternities on a college campus.

Opening Session Dealt with "Atmosphere"

The first session, on Sunday night, pertained to the creation of "atmosphere"- the use of candles, robes, and the subordinate rituals. The meaning of "Fraternity" was discussed . The statement was made that Fraternities do serve a useful, important, and necessary part in college life when functioning properly and wisely. All present were _offered id~as on how to re-evaluat~ their chapters and Its place tn the college communtty and in the members' lives.

The Sumter IS . C.) Alumni Chapter entertained the students and staff of Pi Kapp College at a dance in Sumter the evening of August 31·

officers' responsibilities. Three times a day there was a song period to go over PI KAPP songs.

President Jones Welcomes Group

National President W. Bernard Jones, Jr., was on hand to welcome the group, address them, and finally award the Master Chapter certificates. Past National President John D. Carroll, one of the pioneering leaders in PI KAPPA PHI, spoke to the group as did the District President of South Carolina, Ben Covington; Past Ex­ecutive Secretary Jim Wilson; Executive Secretary Dur­ward Owen; Traveling Counselor Paul Perry, and Retiring Executive Secretary Greg Elam who was also the Director of THE COLLEGE. B11other George Kinnamon, a minis­ter who once had been a player-manager in the Pittsburgh Pirates farm system, gave a stirring address on Brother­hood, using his experience with baseball as a footnote to his talk.

Sumter Alumni Entertain

The Sumter Alumni, spearheaded by Brother Edwin Boyle and a commi·ttee consisting of Dr. Charles White, James Britton, and Dr. R. D. Guilds, Jr., took it upon themselves to have a "Hospitality Night" to welcome the visiting brothers to town. With a dance band, snacks, entertainment, and a room full of beautiful girls, the local men were able to put on a successful evening. All were most gratefu l for such thoughtfulness. When one

boy returned to camp without his pin, a few did n°1

believe that he had lost it on the floor.

Out of the Past-or-Forty Years Ago

(From The Star and Lamp of December, 1919)

THE FIRST NATIONAL CONVENTION since World War I was being planned for Decem­

ber 31, January 1 and 2 when this issue of the magazine went to press. The issue opened with a Convention story, giving a real "Chamber of Com­merce" description of Charlotte, N . C., the Con­vention city.

In referring to Charlotte's educational facilities, the woman's college was the only one whose name was given. It was pointed out also that Western Union Telegraph Company employed 135 people and had a montMy payroll of $12,500.

Eminent Supreme Archon Carroll Sounds Call

Brother John D . Carroll was Eminent Supreme Archon at this time, and his bulletin "To All Chapters"-the 12 of them-about the Conven­tion included the important information as to the cost of rooms in the Convention hotel and also the banquet. Double rooms with bath were avail­able for $4.50, and single rooms with bath, $2.50. The banquet the evening of January 1 was listed as $2.50 a plate. Brother Henry G. Harper had the responsibility of making reservations.

Brother Carroll asked the chapters to notify their alumni about the approaching Convention, passing to them the information contained in his letter and especially reminding the past archons since they would have a vote in the meeting of the Supreme Chapter.

Brother Heffner Urges Strong Organization

Eminent Supreme Deputy-Archon Roy J. Heff­ner gave a concise discussion of the major prob­lems confronting the coming Convention.

"One of the notable lessons of the war is that of the importance of organization-organization on a large scale," he said ... "Surely the necessity for making the best possible national organization for our Fraternity needs no explanation .... We must have closer union-in other words, we must perfect our organization."

Brother Heffner called for a bettering of the system of inter-chapter communication, particu­larly through The Star and Lamp. He recom­mended that the ritua!l. be revised and prescribed for ail chapters and that symbols for fraternal garments of officers be prescribed. He called also

for a study of the reports required of each chapter and a reduction in the number of such reports. He asked for a policy for expansion.

In Brother Heffner's concluding remarks, he de­dared that "there will never be reason to listen to complaints from chapters who do not provide some means of representation" at the Convention.

Chapters Are Enthusiastic about Convention

Something of the enthusiasm with which vari­ous undergraduate chapters were looking forward to the Convention was related in letters from Ard1on Bowen of Alfha, Archon Di1llard of Zeta, Archon Overstreet o Eta, Archon Rodriguez of Iota, Archon Mott of Lambda, Archon Rice of Nu, and Archon Erb of Xi.

In addition to these letters, eight chapters sub­mitted regular chapter letters: Alpha, South Caro­lina Zeta, Georgia Iota, Georgia Lambda, Nebraska Nu, Virginia Xi, Alabama Omicron, and Georgia Pi. These letters reflected the optimism with which the chapters were moving into their new year.

Four pages were devoted to brief news items about alumni.

In the "Songs" Department, "Thy Banners Wave from Shore to Shore," "Fealty," and "Memories" were published, reminding one again that Pi Kappa Phi has always been a singing fraternity. The last two songs mentioned were written by Editor Wade S. Bolt, Sigma '09, University of South Carolina.

The Editor reported receiving many magazine exchanges from a number of fraternities and soror­ities and quoted from some of them. He pointed out that Theta Chi was gradually pushing westward and that the September number of The Signet was a geographical and alphabetical index of the mem­bership of Phi Sigma Kappa. From Banta's Greek Exchange was quoted a !1st of new charter grants and new chapter houses for a number of fraterni­ties and sororities.

A partial list of members of the Fraternity in the service in World War I included the following: Alpha, 33; Ganm1a, 51; Zeta, 40; Iota, 52; Kappa, 12; Omicron, 46. Four of these 234 men had given their lives.

EDITORIAL

It is time that alumni and undergraduate members of college sororities ~nd fraternities at long last wake up to the fact that their constitutional ~h~hts as American citizens are threatened on so~e ~allege campu.ses in th 5 ~emocracy of ours. Ever since our federal const1tut1on was established, f e r1ght of men and women to form legitimate organizations and select hor new members in them whomever the members of the group desire v~~ ~een recognized. That right should be recognized on college and uni-

Sity campuses as well as elsewhere.

if There is no question of democracy involved. There might be, of course, e the established organizations attempted to prevent similar groups from stoblishing groups that might have different membership qualifications.

5 1f colleges and universities accept fraternities and sororities as desirable

boclol groups on the campus they cannot logically or legally discriminate q~t~een those groups because of their difference in membership

oliflcations.

r ~hether it is wise or desirable for a fraternity or a sorority to be inter­g0c1?1 as for as its membership is concerned is a question for that or-onlzation to decide and that organization alone.

d If it is a national organization it will decide by a generally accepted e~rnocratic procedure, for it is governed by a constitution which ordinarily coer~ member is bound by oath to follow and support. Practically every e nstltution provides means to change its provisions by democratic proc­dsses. If a change is not made, the individual chapter always can with­or~w, form a local, and make whatever change or changes it desires, but r: ong.as it remains a part of the national, it MUST ABIDE by. the. laws a.nd hoSUiat1on of the national. That is the rule of every organ1zat1on wh1ch

5 separate units.

0/raternity men and sorority women should know just what the score N the present situation is, for there is much misinformation in circulation. chever before have the Greeks been as strong in numbers, in chapters, in op0 Pter houses, in endowments. Never have so many new campuses been \Ve~~ed to national organizations. Never ha~e these n~t!onals been as 50 managed. The loss of chapters is practically neglig1ble. There are co lind facts to prove that fraternities and sororities are strong and will be-

rne stronger.

Cir Encouraging also is the evidence that both fraternities and sororities tin~ cooperating as never before. The National Panhellenic Conference Clct the National Interfraternity Conference have developed more char­gr er, being today something other than mere discussion and advisory

oups.

lo ~hile eight or ten chapters have reverted to locals, and more may be Cils! In the future because of the questionable policies of certain education­to Institutions, the total will not be large, however severe the loss will be

the individuals and the campuses concerned.

th On this and succeeding pages are items and comments that deserve geoughtful reading. Such will help in constructive thinking and in intelli­

nt action.

You JJave l~e Jeg~tf '--------------------de~?s Dr. Frederick L. Hoode, presi­

' Purdue University, who spent his

flov EMBER, 1959

undergraduate life at the University of Minnesota:

Social fraternities have the right to select those they wish to have as mem­bers of the group. I hold that the uni­versity has no power, authority, or legal

right to enter this controversial area. While the university is an agency and creation of the statt:e and must therefore conduct its operations with respect to its student body, its faculty, its teach­ing and researd1, and the management of these things, in accordance with the provisions of law, no other course is possible or permissible. Further, the university is not a law-enforcing agen­cy and has no power to control the lives of its members. The only thing the university can do is to deny admission to and the services of the university to individuals who are not willing to subscribe to the rules and regulations of the university for the conduct of its operations.

The solution to the problem of social discrimination is less important than the preservation of the democratic proc­ess of government as it applies to both public and private affairs. As a matter of fact, the questions of social dis­crimination are more likely to be solved by the operation of the democratic proc­ess than by the dictatorship of any group.

Columbia University has sent to all chapters on the campus the following statement for signature: " (Name of Fraternity) is not compelled by local or national regulations, rituals, policies or practices, or by the influence of extra­chapter alumni, to discriminate as to membership on basis of race, creed, or ethnic background. (President of Fra­ternity.) "

pha is a democratic organization of present and former undergraduate col­lege men. It includes approximately 5,000 undergraduates and 70,000 graduates. The men who are now in college absolutely control its policies. The laws of the fraternity, which are open to inspection by the public, declare and affirm that the General Fraternity, which means the men in college, shall determine who will be eligible for membership. The Hami1ton chapter passed a resolution that it would not be bound by the decision of the other chapters. This was an act of secession. The Hamilton chapter, in effect, stated that it desired to have the advantage of an international organization, but it would not be bound by the will of the majority. The undergraduates of the 151 chapters of the fraternity framed an ultimatum: Either the Hamilton undergraduates will operate as a unit of a democratic organization, or they will be denied membership. The Hamil­ton men have refused to accede to a vote of the membership of a voluntary organization. By such action the Ham­ilton chapter has decided to operate as a local society. This is its prerogative. It is the equal prerogative of any and all voluntary associations to prescribe by majority vote the standards of the organization.

Cornell's Sigma Kappa chapter, sus­pended by the national organization for pledging a Negro, has surrendered its charter and operrutes as a local. The Student Government Council at the Universily of Michigan attempted to withdraw recognition from the Sigma Kappa chapter on that campus, but was vetoed by the Board of Review, made up of two students and five administra­tors. This is not the first time that the Greeks have been threatened with trouble from students whc want to gov­ern regardless of <the inherent rights of Greek organizations . President Ruthven before he retired showed that the Greeks had vested rights that could not .legitimately be disturbed, and this verdict was supported by his successor, President Hatcher. It is probable that jurisdiction over fraternities and sorori­ties will be put in the hands of a group not related in any way to the Student Government Council.

From President John Sloan Dickey : "If Dartmouth College at this time

were to take a step back on this issue [fraternity discrimination), she would be doing much more harm than any· thing that touches merely her fraternity system," stated President John Sloan Dickey recently over WDCR. "The . Board of Trustees have had the oc­casion within the past year to have this very question as to what their attitudes would be on any suggestions of post­ponement placed before them, and at that time is was unanimously and em­phatically clear [to the trustees] that it would be not in the interest of the college to have any question of post­ponement raised or considered." The president said that it was the trustees' opinion that the six years since the ac­tion of the undergraduate body in 1954 was "indeed a very long time to wait for action."

When asked what would happen to those chapters that would not be able to get rid of their clauses by 1960, President Dickey stated that the groups should request "a voluntary suspension of their national affi liation until the na­tional is in ·compliance with college policy."

Concerning the possible lack of pres­tige for those fraternities forced to go local, the president said that the entire staff of the college would be anxious to be " just as helpful as we can to every fraternity [group] to preserve the quality of its social life because we believe that fraternities have a place in the healthy social olife of Dartmouth College."

Writes Bill Cunningham, widely read Boston colwnnist:

My old fraternity, Phi Delta Theta, is getting ready to close out at Dart­mouth College. One of the oldest, the largest, and most renowned nationally, it's a casualty of the Dartmouth under­graduate ballot of two or three years ago barring all fraternities, national or otherwise, with racially discriminatory provisions in their charters. The dead­line for changing the national by-laws,

breaking relations, or getting out ~f set for 1960.

I frankly don't know how I fell about this. I regret the discriminator, provisions, although the Dartrnodt brethren of even a way back yon .. had nothing to do with them. So far • I know, they were in the original. coP cept drawn up at Miami UniversttY. Jf 1848. That was 111 years ago, betor the word "discrimination" was e1

so despise pressure and all who emplo) it. I don 't like to see causists, sta~: seekers, and mental and social beatn' ganging up to force their ideas, n. matter how right they may be, insteJ~ of trying to resolve problems in a re~ soned and civilized fashion . You cafl legislate love. You can, of course, for•· surface acceptance.

Furthermore, and daring the wrat~ I'm none too convinced that in a d mocracy, with complete freedom ~. thought, speech, action, and even ill

s '''What's Best For Your Child" is a rdicated column appearing in some ~Pers and written by Dr. David Good­··!h· One of his recent articles was D e Problem of the Coed Who th~esn'_t Drink." After telling about aut Plight that such a girl faces, the a hor says that college authorities have a/esponsibility to organize the recre­folonal life of the student body. "Un­f~tunately," says the author, "very ll colleges accept this responsibility. /etything social is left to the fraterni­i~es[ and the neighboring gin mills. Fun

01. ?ose, wild, and excessive, under-101ng study." Then the author comes

~OV~MBER, 1959

up with the following remarkable pro­gram: "The parents could change all this if they told the college president in no uncertain terms: 1. Abolish the fraternities. 2. Forbid automobiles on campus. 3. Set up a solid course of study, omitting the frills . 4. Demand real work of the students and drop the play boys and girls. 5. Use a siz­able portion of college income to pro­vide an attractive social and athletic program in which all the students could participate-happily and with reasonable sobriety."

Recently the students of l. S. U. have read many uncomplimentary and too often true criticisms of the fraternity system. I would like to take this op­portunity to put forth my feelings about fraternities in order to somewhat counterbalance this adverse criticism.

I have been a member of a fraternity ever since I came to l. S. U. I will never regret joining one. My fraternity, far from ruining my morals and sd10larship, has given me a better un­derstanding of my fellow man, broad­ened my attitudes, and taught me that scholarship is the most important phase of campus life. More than this, how­ever, my fraternity is a proving ground for leadership, with all members striv­ing to learn more about their responsi­bility to life. The fraternity system has given to coundess thousands of men the same benefits which I an1 now re­ceiving, benefits which I could not have gained in the same degree if I did not belong to a fraternity.

Tme, fraternities have members who are far from perfect and exhibit these imperfections in embarrassing ways, but what student can say that there is any greater proportion of "bad" boys in fraternities than there is out of them. They can not. It is fallacious for anyone to assume (as many already have) that certain publicized incidents are indicative of general fraternity life. Perhaps it would do little good to point out that nothing worse takes place in fraternity houses than that which takes place in a dormitory. In fact, many fraternities do a better job of policing themselves.

-Rid1ard Barton, president Phi Gamma Delta Chapter at Louisiana State.

The Northwestern Way: The Northwestern University ad­

ministration informed the student gov­ernmg board recently that "members of each fraternity chapter are the proper ones to determine who shall or who shall ?ot be elected" to fraternity mem­bership. The statement, contained in a letter from J. Roscoe Miller, president of the university, was in response to a student governing board recommenda­tio~ that the unive~sity withdraw recog­nitiOn from soronties and fraternities whose constitutions provide for dis­crimination on the basis of race. The group asked the administration for its view. Northwestern University does not believe in discrimination, President Miller said in his letter, but he added that ."i~ is an inhe.ren~ right for any assoCiatiOn to prescnbe 1 ts qualifications for membership so long as they are not contrary to law." Progress in "such so­cial questions," he continued, "comes much more quickly through education than coercion."

A 30-year old ex-GI threatens to take legal action to ban discriminatory clauses in the charter of five San Jose State College ~raternities. Billy Gene Parker, a mamed freshman with one small son, charges the college admini­stration and Student Council with stall­ing on the discrimination issue which has empted into open controversy on the campus. As a result, Parker, leader of a number of student "equal right­ists," declares he has engaged attorneys to take the ~ght to courts if necessary. H he does, 1t may be the first time a court suit has been filed against a state college on a discrimination charge.

Parker is pushing a college constitu­tional amendment that would withdraw campus recognition from fraternities that still have charter clauses restrict­ing membership on the basis of race, color, and creed. He charges that the Student Council, with the backing of the administration, refuses to force the fraternities to eliminate the clauses, but instead merely passed an amendment to student by-laws urging them to end

11

discrimination and asking for progress reports.

The student body recently passed a measure banning any new organizations which restrict membership. "I don't feel the council was sincere," he said , "particularly so when most of the stu­dent officers are members of the Greek living groups. If we let things continue at the present rate, there will be dis­crimination at San Jose State when my son is ready for college."

From the Daily Illini: In opposing a recommendation in a

report made by the American Associa­tion of University Professors at the University of Illinois the Daily Illini, uncensored student newspaper, says:

First of all, it does not define, per­haps because it is undefinable, what "still discriminate" constitutes. How­ever, the university could choose to de­fine this phrase by asking every sorority and fraternity to show proof that they do not discriminate. To show proof most likely would mean that a sorority or fraternity would have to pledge a Negro or Catholic or Lithuanian. To require such proof would be as bad as clauses ·which limit membership on the basis of race, religion, or national ori­gin, for it is just as wrong to tell mem­bers whom they have to pledge as it is to <tell them whom they cannot take. The choice of membership should be left up eo the individuals within the local chapter. as <to whom they would like to live with, not ro the public which has no direct fesponsibility toward the private organization.

Because of their faith in the college fraternity, the trustees of the University of Pennsylvania have directed President Gaylord P. Hornwell to appoint a com­mittee to make studies and present pro­posals for effective ways and means to strengthen the fraternity system and its components. The university administra­tion announces that it "has a definite responsibility to and an interest in the fraternities not only as social units, but as living accommodations for its stu-

12

dents." The trustees allocated $5000 for the purpose of conducting as the initial and immediate step in the study an engineering survey of the under­graduate, graduate, and professional social fraternity houses to determine the nature and amount of deferred maintenance as well as the estimated reserves required for continuing main­tenance and for future capita l improve­ments .

The following greeting was intro­ductory to the published program of this year's Greek Week, held at the University of Toledo, April 10-12:

Dear Friends: The influence of Greek organizations on a campus de­pends upon the membership and its leaders. Every university welcomes strong student leadership and active groups which use their talents for productive ends. College students are in the public eye because they repre­sent a great potential strength among our citizens in the years to come. Any program which calls attention to the positive values of C·ampus organiza­tions can be a reminder of the responsi­bilities which rest upon all of us. Greek Week at the University of Toledo is traditionally a time of re­dedication to the high goals of good citizenship and constructive endeavor. I send my greetings to all who partici­pate. Sincerely, William S. Carlson, President."

While Dr. Carlson was president of the State University of New York, composed of 21 separate educational institutions, some of which had chap­ters of national fraternities and so­rorities, largely through his influence legislation was adopted that caused them to end their affiliation and be­come locals. Today Dr. Carlson finds the nabional organizations have merit and is working with !!hem effectively rut Toledo. He is happy that his daugh­ter this year became a member of a national sorority on another campus.

Says Director Kenneth F. Murrah, Emory University:

It is the university's attitude ''t~~ Emory fraternities have become an 10

tegral part of the total educational P~ gram of the undergraduates, and tb~' contribution to the education and traJ;

1 ing of the students 'has been distinct ' wholesome and varied."

Therefore, we will continue to . ~t here to the theory that responsibJh bl will be assmned by our students thr.ou8_ their respective organizations. T.hJS re

1,

sponsibifity includes the selectiOn ° the membership to their social fratef01

ties. If the qualifications of mernbe~ ship should be altered, our chapt\ have the proper legislative channe ·. available through their national or ganizations for such alterations. 'fbi alteration will not come from arbitraD dictation from our university.

I doubt seriously that we would ha~ on this campus the many assets that 0

fraternities possess if we did not u~ hold the following paragraph frorn °0

:

statement of. ba~ic policy on stud,;;~ soCJal organtzatwns at Emory: ~ general ~he university does not est;! , lish rules and regulations for studeO· organizations. The university coope.~ ates with all chartered organizations.;!., promoting their programs, and is "'1

,

ing at all times to advise and counse with their officers or other represen~ tives. The responsibility for the pror; conduct of affairs of student organJt tions, however, lies with the organizJ· ~ions themselves. Official university a: tion is ooncerned primarily with gra~ ing, refusing, or, withdrawing t charters of such organizations."

The Trail of· Tradition SEVERAL YEARS AGO Founder Simon Fogarty gave

a Fraternity pin to the National Office to be preserved. This pin was one of the very earliest emblems of the Fraternity. The pin was placed in the office to reflect on the history it represented.

Yet it seemed that something more fitting could be developed around this "link with the past" than merely to be placed in the archives of the Fraternity. Finally the idea was developed of establishing a museum of all the Brotherhood pins of each local group that had joined Pi Kappa Phi through the years for each chapter was, at one time, either a local, independent fraJternity or a c?lony deliberately orgaJnized by the national organiza­tion. Most of the local groups had their own pin before joining Pi Kappa Phi.

It is therefore hoped that one pin from each chapter may be located and placed in the museum to represent a composite history of the fraternity.

Below are two pins of local groups that became chap­ters of Pi Kappa Phi. They are the corner stone of the museum.

Kappa Sigma Delta

Kappa Sigma Delta was founded in 1919 at Drexel l'nstitute of Technology. It was the oldest fraternity at Drexel and petitioned Pi Kappa Phi in 1934 and was installed as Alpha Upsilon Chapter. The pin was do­nated by Dr. Robert S. Hansen of Drexel Hill, Penna., who was one of the charter members of Alpha Upsilon Chapter.

Gamma Sigma Kappa

Gamma Sigma Kappa, at the University of Illinois, became Upsilon Chapter of Pi Kappa Phi in 1921. The above pin was sent in by Brother Paul Walker of Pales­tine, Ill., with the explanation that it was the pin of "Pinky" Faust. Brother Faust was sick in bed at a down­town hotel the day of the installation in 1921 and a group went down and inducted him into Pi Kappa Phi. He died shortly thereafter.

Prominent Publisher By BROTHER MEL METCALFE, Alpha Gamma '25

University of Oklahoma

p ERHAPS the only father in the nation in compe­

tition with his own son in the same city in the news­paper publishing business is Brother Orville E. Priest­ley, Alpha Gamma '23, University of Oklahoma, Editor and Publisher of the Las Cntces Sun-News of Las Cruces, N. M.

Priestley's son, Gene, is Owner and Manager of the Las Cmces Citizen, a week­ly newspaper in the same city in which his father

Brother Orville E. Priestley publishes the daily news, but the competition is of a

most friendly nature, folks of Las Cruces agree.

Brother Priestley enrolled in the University of Okla­homa in the Fall of 1921 to study journalism and received his B.A. Degree in 1925.

While at the university he became acquainted with eight Pi Kapps, all formerly from Phi Chapter at Tulsa University, and soon found himself a charter member of Pi Kappa, a local fraternity organized for the purpose of becoming what was later designated as Alpha Gamma Chapter of Pi Kappa Phi.

After receiving his degree from the University of Oklahoma, Orville spent the next 14 years working in the editorial departments of daily newspapers in Okla­homa, Arkansas, and Missouri.

In 1929, he launched into the newspaper publishing business, becoming a partner with the late James H. Skewes, Editor and Publisher of the Meridian Star, Meridian, Miss., and became Editor and Publisher of the Crowley Daily Signal, Crowley, La. He was elected Pres ident of the Louisiana State Press Association for 1944-45.

He sold his interest in the Crowley newspaper in 1945 and moved to Artesia, N . M., where he and his partner bought the Artesia Advocate. Two years later, he became Editor and Publisher of the Las Cmces Stm-News. Here, he has been busily engaged ever since, seeing his original investment of a little Jess than a hundred thou­sand dollars quadruple as the population of Las Cruces doubled. His other son, Joseph, works with him.

Orville's activities in Las Cruces have been many and varied as he has served the Chamber of Commerce, the Rotary Club, his Methodist Church, and his entire com­munity. Last year he was the recipient of the Associated Press Managing Editors national group coveted award. He has served on the board of directors of the New Mexico Press Association and as its President in 1951-52. He is listed in "Who's Who in the West."

UTHE RAMBLIN' WRECK"­NO MEAN PERFORMER

. FROM IOTA CHAPTER, GEORGIA TECH

AS NOVEMBER 15, 1958, drew near, the Georgia Tech campus became a bee-hive of activity. The fes­

tivities planned for Homecoming included the freshman cake race and the wreck parade .Saturday morning, with the football game with Alabama following in the after­noon.

The wreck committee headed by Tom Lowndes, started work early in the year. A prewar Chevrolet underwent some complicated mechanical changes which enabled it to be tilted until it restei upon the back wheels and back bumper. Separately controlled mechanical brakes connected to the rear wheels made it possible for the driver to spin the wreck in circles. In order to facilitate the tilting it was necessary to shorten the drive shaft to sixteen inches. Several body changes were made and a coat of bright green paint was applied for effect.

The parade was the climax to many hours of tedious work on the part of the fraternity mechanics. As the car reached the top of the last hill it spun about in a circle and smacked into the curb. The doors and hood fell off. Observers were sure that the wreck was about to disinte­grate. However, our driver, Jim Whitehead, calmly backed up and drove away, with the doors and hood

· slowly coming back into place.

The wreck parade was only a part of Homecoming, but it climaxed the weekend's activities for the brothers of Iota.

"Dr. Work, who was in his early seventies at the time of his death, was not only a seed and variety expert but also an insfiring tead1er and writer," an editoria in Seed World declared. "Readers of Seed W odd have seen many al'ticles by him upon new vege­table varieties, and the variety trials which were carried on under his di­rection at Cornell University were among the finest seen anywhere."

The editorial continued by pointing out that Brother Work joined the staff of Cornell in 1910 and remained with the Vegetable Crops Department until his retirement in 1951. Since then he has remain ed active as Professor Emeritus. He helped organize the New York State Vegetable Growers Asso­ciation in 1911 and has been actively interested in it ever since.

Professor Work was the pioneer of vegetable trials and field days. This horticultural achievement brought him the All-America Selections Medallion in 1953. H e was immediate past Presi­deflll: of the Rural Church Institute which is the Town and Country Di­vision of the New York State Council of Churches. He was an elder of the First Presbyterian Church in Ithaca for 30 years and aJso served as Sunday School Superintendent and a teacher for many years.

Professor Work was the author of two books, "Vegetable Production and Marketing" and "Tomruto Production." For many years he was associated with tlhe Market Growers' J ottrnal, being Associate Editor, 1921-28 ; Editor, 1928-42; Associate Editor, 1942-53, and thereafter Emeritus Associate Edi­tor.

Dr. Work received his A.B. Degree from the University of Tennessee in

22

1907, his B.S. from Pennsylvania State College .in 1910, his M.S. from Cornell University in 1913, and his Ph.D. from the University of Minnesota in 1921.

Devereux D. Rice Memorial Foundation THE DEVEREUX D. RLCE Memorial Foundation is

more than just a Foundation Fund to me because it is a fitting memorial to a man I knew well; first when he wa's Dis•trict Archon for the State of Tennessee in the 1930's while I was your National Treasurer, and later when he served with me on your National Council, and finally when he became our Fraternity's President in 1946. Devereux Rice had a genuine interest in the progress of his Fraternity and especially in the individual develop­ment of its members. The contributions you have made to this Memorial Fund, founded in his honor, are really an investment in human values.

The Fund was intenided for a two fold purpose; first to provide scholarships for undergraduates, on occasion, as determined by the Committee, and second, to provide financial assistance to Chapters desiring to acquire a home, a Chapter House for it~s members.

The Rice Committee believes <that a Chapter shollild, if possible, have its own house, because it is through the "give and take" of living together in a Chapter House that the undergraduate can acquire those qualities of

character and 1;ersonali~ that distinguish the truly ~~; cated man. Thts opportunity alone is ample justificatiO for membership in our Fraternity.

Bouse.• When financing <the purchase of a Chapter 1 11

there is sometimes a "gap," so to speak, between "'~at the Chapter's Housing Corporaition can raise and "'h 1 can be borrowed by conventional financing throug el first mortgage loan. The Rice Fund does, upon .Pr0P

0f

request, try to assist in bridging this gap, asswntng, I) course, that the assistance requested is within th.e "~h~ modest means of the Fund and is in accordance wtth policies governing the Fund.

Again, may I say ·that a contribution to the Rice ~~: morial Foundation is, indeed, an investment in the th man values of our. Fraternity and contributions. f.rorn ~~~ active and alumru members are earnestly soltClted. n· Rice Foundation Committee, on its part, pledges its cond tinuing best efforts to promote the growth of the .fu and thus its opportunity for service to Pi Kappa Pht.
