Which Way, Fraternities?

-THE

LIVEliEST CORPSE-

Fratet·nitie and sororities throughout the Uni ted tates are singing the well-loved song, "AIL, weet Mystery of Life", utilizing this one reft·ain over and over again. The reason for their hroken-record recitation is to be fotmd in the hue and cry being raised ovet· them by the various conununication media, both written, pictorial, and spoken, and overt predictions of the "'death of the fraternity system."

Where?

Why?

Who?

As every egg came from a fowl, and like­wise, every fowl came from an egg, it is indeed a mystery as to where it all starts. Of equal concern to the Where, is the answer to the question Why? did it start and develop and Who? started it and is continuing to develop it.

As has been stated before, "there is nothing new under the sun," likewise, the criticism of, and prediction of its demise, is ~othing new to the fraternity system. However, It must be admitted that the present trend is to a much more vicious attack, and to be quite frank, a much more untruthful attack.

The American fraternity system, either i~ lia total or as a hybrid, traces its developrne111 fr~ from the origin of Phi Beta Kappa at the col· to! lege of William and Mary in 1776.

It comes as no surpris: to learn that even the highly renown aJl leg respected Phi Beta Kappa had much oppositi0~ da: in its early days of development and contiJI0

if closed at the present point of development, it does not indicate the "death of fraternities" at Williams, but rather a reduction of their scope of activity.

Misleading Publicity In

National Publications

Many other instances of mis-information for study and research, have resulted in similar types of false and misleading publicity. Of immediate thought comes to mind an article in N ewsweek Magazine entitled, "Zeta Beta Kaput," which misquoted and quoted out of context, various school administrators indicat­ing that fraternities were "losing out." That factual and constructional publication, Esquire, has also esteemed itself in the eyes of good fraternity men by an article entitled, "The Death of Fraternities." This was a very caustic and subtle article, written purely from the fantasy of a second-string writer's imagina­tion, lacking in facts, and in certain instances, being downright untruthful.

Look Mazazine has found it necessary to get into the act, and has recently produced an article entitled, "Big Brother." Although an initial glance at this article might give you the impression that it was a middle-of-the-road treatise on the subject of fraternities, it actually was a subtle attack on the system.

Just Criticism Always Needed

Many other instances of overt mis-informa­tion being disseminated could be mentioned; but rather, it would be well to indicate that there have also been numerous instances dur­ing the past few years of publicity, adverse and major, which was truthful and factual. In being honest with ourselves, we must admit that a tremendous amount of the controversy concerning fraternities has not been completely without basis.

The usual campus capers of our under­graduate youth 'receive their due just in the public's eye. It must be admitted and recog­nized that no national fraternity worth its salt condones such activites, but rather it should be remembered that these fraternities in fact condemn such activity and work diligently through their administrators and alumni to prevent such activities occurring.

Many prominent educators, faced with pres-

Page 4: 1963_3_Aug

sure from parents, trustees, government agenc­ies, etc., have found it necessary to launch an all out attack directed towards upgrading the academic processes of their institutions. There­fore, it is only natural that they attempt to speed up the evolution of all campus organi­zations. Any campus organization not being totally academic-orientated will therefore be given much attention, and great stress will be based upon its "change of ways."

Likewise, the tremendous impact of tech­nological and other advancements is the world­wide competition of ideologies demands that there be a re-evaluation of emphasis, and pur­poses. Fraternities are perhaps the least-wield­ing organizations on a campus, and it does per­haps become aggravating to various educators, administrators, etc., that this ponderous move­ment will not get up and go at the lash of their whip, as readily as other more controllable organizations on their campus.

It would be well to recognize an important development of the past few months. Con­structive criticism of the fraternity system is developing, slow for sure, but in evidence. There will be more on this in a later issue.

Constructive Explanation

of Mis-Information

Two interesting thoughts have been pre­sented recently, which might provide some constructive explanation of the "reports of fraternities' death and decline." One such plausible explanation come from the under­standing that an institution derives publicity in direct proportion to the impact it makes upon the community. Since we are now re­ferring to the magnitude of adverse publicity being received nationwide by fraternities, then we must include the entire nation as the fra­ternity's community of influence. Since this nationwide community sees it necessary to overtly recognize and be cognizant of fra­ternities, it would therefore appear that fra­ternities are indeed becoming of age. Becom­ing of age, it must be that the impact on its community being levied by fraternities is in­creasing to such a magnitude that it can­not help but be noticed. Anything worthy of notice is worthy of knocking. At least, this appears to be the philosophy of many media's policies.

In other words, you will notice that XYZ Electric Company doing minor electrical re-

Of pairing and installation, and employing thret J or four people in a sub-section of a local cill 191 community, makes very little impact, regard· ch~ less of what it does (for good or bad), an' 24! therefore, receives very little notice for W 1 efforts. However, when General Electric, eJil inc ploying thousands of people and involving }'l'lil· lions of dollars in assets and services, dot Sot

something (for good or for bad) it receive: Pai great notice. Such warranted notice derivt itself from the fact that GE has a tremendou: \le1

impact on its community. Fraternities a!'' atE making a decided impact and are therefoJI 19f subject to greater scrutiny by the public. V/t ha· have arrived! \Vo

A second, and perhaps even more plausibl• Wit explanation, is the very nature of fraterni~ in philosophy. Fraternities base their prese~~ \Vh and future activities and development on jjhel; th

1 historical tradition. Likewise, it is so muc t· . Ie: an intangible operation that we must recognl~' the tremendous spiritual influence present tee Needless to say, any organization with a simil~1 not operation could not expect to exist unnoticed 11 (

a society which is presently being driven, ~ arE a great extent, by a pragmatic and agnos!l· th~ philosophy. To proponents of pragmatism aJI1 not agnosticism, fraternities would indeed be rt 0f pulsive. Such individuals would of necessi~ is feel it imperative that they "knock" a trlld1 thE tion-bound, spiritual movement.

Brother Neal has tremendous pride in his Savings Bond efforts d~ring the pas.t 22 years. He summed up the savmgs Bond picture dur­ing that time this way

"How well we have succeeded can be seen in the sales record of Savings Bonds over the past 22 years. During that period, more than 100 million Americans have purchased a total of $133 billion in E and H Savings Bonds. To­day they hold a record total of $45.9 billion. And over the past 22 years Americans have withdrawn from the program some $87 billion in savings and accumulated interest.

"These dollars have gone toward building family, security, providing for retirement, for education of children and numerous other worth­while purposes. They have gone b~ck into the economy in the form of bank deposits and have gone into the spending stream to help sus~ain and stabilize the economy of every American community.

"This is a job with many satisfactions, not the least of which is the knowledge that the Savings Bonds program strengthens America and fosters a practical kind of everyday good citizenship," said Brother Neal.

Much good writing often appears in our un­

dergraduate publications. The following ex­

erpts are a good example.

"EAST CAROLINIAN"-Beta Phi­

East Carolina College

When the first "man" swung down from the branches and ambled around, stoop-shouldered and bent-spined, one of the first places he ambled was to a wall. He went to a wall, found something that would mark the wall, and ~ro­ceeded to inscribe for posterity. These earliest inscriptions were little more than crude, linear etchings. But the art of inscribing walls pro­gressed rapidly, and the etchings assumed defiinite shapes. They represen~e~, not so muc~ an attempt at prehistoric creativity, ~s a mam­festation of man's desires and practices.

Later more civilized men continued the practice'. The Egyptians painted detailed. sc~nes on the walls of their tombs. These pamtmgs also portrayed the customs and beliefs of the era. f

Thus men have committed themselves or po terity. The scratches and paintings on the walls of caves and tombs have been almost like inscriptions on the walls of time. Through a study of them archaeologi~ts have dis~ern~d many of the habits and beliefs of prehistoric and early man. They remain as a touchstone for historians.

Today man continues to inscribe and etch on walls Actually, modern man ':Vill etch an~­where--on walls, on furniture, m c<:mcrete, m toilets (especially) . He aridly carne~ on the grand tradition; and when all else falls, when life as we know it perishes, when the books decay, when the great monuments . man has erected to himself tumble, t~ere will. yet be a still small voice of Amenca carrymg out amidst the rubble and ruin. .

Some future intelligence, . excav~t_u;g _the ruins of a long-extinct Amencan CIVIlization, will discover our walls and interpret the etch­ings and inscriptions. And America ~~11. sq';lat happily in the annals of history-a CIVIlization of pimps, homosexuals, saty~s, and other as-orted perverts and sex-mamacs.

"THE CAVALIER"-Beta Upsilon­

University of Virginia

Kahlil Gibran once wrote "Work is love made visible." If one honestly desires to attai;1

a goal or to seek some realization of an idea ' he knows he will have work ahead of him, for otherwise the goal or ideal is not worth reach· ing. His efforts and exertions are the visible manifestations of this desire, or this love, for that goal which lies before him. .

1 As individuals we have goals, some of whJC 1

might seem more distinct, or, perhaps, more immediate, than others. As a j1·aternity, as~ group of individuals possessed with what ,v~ feel is a certain understanding and mutu~ sensitivity we also have goals. Our aim 1:

not just to exist as an element of the fr~ a ternity system at the University, although.: } great amount of work is involved in doing thd ~ alone. Our aim is to thrive and g1·ow a!l; t while growing, not to forg~t our jdeals. qu~ 1• aim is to work for these Ideals m work1~e " through them, for without them we fall to.\ 1 barren plateau of mere existence, and we m!IJ a be lucky to deserve even that. ·ti :V

Thus we work, for we have something woJ 1 working for with each graduating brother a~1• c, that well-earned diploma, with each new m~pe s ber,. as well as with each function, w~ see Jl~ a visible result of our work and our desires, a Jf e: we realize the purpose for that work. ~ tl cherishing our ideals we make our work mte~01 tJ ingful, and only thus can we grow as a 1 \\ fraternity.

The dictionary describes a fraternity as11i dt

student organization found in American d uhj: ''1 versities, formed chiefly to promote frien ?6~ te and welfare among its members and identJ je< o1 through Greek letters and usually accompa!l 1 tr by secret proceedings. Probably very few peOJI fc would argue with this definition, but it re'jt: s~ doesn't tell anyone what makes a fraternl; bE a living organization. For a fraternity ~~vir cc more than just a mere association of in 1 er ca uals existing together, there must be P~d;~J· bE a force which moulds this group of indivi f Cl

111 into a strong viable society. A spirit 0 ·i~'' llE operation and enthusiasm backed up with df tP 13

1 energy and desire to achieve the ideals 0 n~ \V, brotherhood as illustrated in its traditions~tl' :Vc history is. n~cessary. Furthermore, this r~c :Vo be a contmumg factor throughout under~ nil tt uate years and on into alumni membersp · ~ · This will make a fraternity tick, kee l alive and keep it growing.

"ALPHA TAUX"-Aipha Tau­

Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute

What lies behind is the past, but it cannot be forgotten. For myself, the immediate past repres~nts one . of the most enjoyable and educatiOnal periOds of my life, my term as Archon of Alpha Tau.

I would like to leave a thought with under­graduates and alumni alike. R W. Emerson once said, "Most of the shadows of this life are caused by standing in our own sunshine." Let us not stand in each others sunshine.

"FOREVER LAMBDA "-Lambda­

University of Georgia

We at Lambda Chapter do sincerely wish to express our THANKS to our alumni for taking enough interest in their fraternity to send us recommendations on freshmen rush prospects .

It is truly one of our greatest assets to be familiar with a rush prospect and let him know that he has been recommended by one of ou;r oustanding alumni. It gives the boy a knowmg assurance and makes him feel that he is a~ready, in a small way, a part of our fratermty.

In addition to the effect of these recom­menda~ions on the prospective pledges, they also give a tremendous boost to the rush spirit of our brothers. To know that you are interested in our selectivity gives us a re­newed pride.

"BETA IOTA LITE"-Beta Iota­

University of Toledo

Let us begin this 59th anniversary of the founding of Pi Kappa Phi with the attitude that it is my duty and responsibility to set the example for my Brother. You can preach all you wish about being a Brother, but until you are one you can't really know what a Brother is. You can talk and contemplate all you want about Brotherhood, but until you practice Brotherhood you are not better than a hypo­crite. Brotherhood doesn't start with the next fellow-it starts with yourself. Until you have given, how can you truthfully expect to re­ceive? To write and talk about Brotherhood is the simple part. It is the practice which slowly evolves into that indescribable special way of feeling that is the real meaning of Brother­hood.

Brotherhood seems to be the goal which we are all seeking, yet in a negative manner. Instead of telling a "Brother" that he is doing something wrong, why not show him the right way to do it? Instead of telling a "Brother" to "go to hell," why not say "Lets both go to Heaven"?

THE WHOLE STORY OF FRATERNITY

GREATNESS A new edition of Baird's Manual

just published is an impressive

testimony that fraternities con­

tinue to gain strength and size

The Preface to the Manual concludes: "Readers who are surprised that the fra­ternity system continues to grow so lustily need not be. 'It is the real evidence that the fraternity of tomorrow is to be far more powerful than that of yesterday,' said Dr. Shepardson, 'because of the increased faith of earnest men in the dignity, the potentiality, and the human influence of such an association of kindred souls.' "

The new Manual contains 848 pages. It is set in a modern double-column format in a trimmed size of 6% by 9% inches, and is bound in a durable maroon buckram. Copies may be ordered from George Banta Co., Menasha, Wis., the publisher. The price is $8.00 per copy, postpaid.

The new Seventeenth Edition of Baird's Manual of American College F-raternities, the bible of the Greek-letter world since 1879, clearly answers a question frequently asked of late by observers of higher education: "Have the fraternities stopped growing?"

10

The new edition just published by the George Banta Co., Inc., Menasha, Wis., is larger in every way than the preceding edition of 1957· It is evidence that the fraternities have de­cidedly not stopped growing. College enrol}· ment grows, the fraternities grow, and thiS new edition attests that Baird's Manual haS grown and is growing with them.

The work contains an enlarged Introduction to the American College Fraternity, whicb presents historical highlights, essential phasef of development, and in revealing the nature o

1 the fraternity shows why it is an importan institution which has contributed significant}) to America as a civilization.

Also, a more readily usable directory is in eluded of universities and colleges where there are fraternjty chapters. This describes the institution briefly and states for the first time the type of housing utilized by the fraternitie~ and sororities. The new Baird's lists 915 instl' tutions, while the 1957 edition listed but 491. 1 A further innovation is the presentation ,0

the descriptions of fraternities and socie~14 in a uniform order, following these top1c8

sideheads : Growth, Government, Traditio~t and Insignia, Publications, Funds and Ph1 · anthropies, Headquarters (address), and Me1: bership. Membership statistics are immediate) followed by the roster of chapters.

Bronze Star, Purple Heart and Combat In­fantryman's Badge. Wilson was discharged in 1946 as a major.

During his collegiate career at the Univer­sity of Florida, he was a member of the Honor Court, vice president of his class as a junior in the College of Law, and a chairman of one of the campus political parties.

Active in Lake City community affairs Wil­son has served as president of the local Ki~anis Club, chairman of the Suwannee River District Boy Scouts, and as a member of the Advisory Council of Lake City Junior College and Forest Rangers School.

He has been active in alumni affairs for his university as vice president of the alumni asso­ciation's district three and as association vice president-at-large.

He is active in the Red Cross, Chamber of Commerce and Presbyterian Church and is now serving as a trustee of Davidson College and a member of the Board of Counselors of Florida Presbyterian College.

Brother Conway owns and operates gas heat­ing and air conditioning firms in Daytona Beach, Fla. He has been a vice president of the Florida alumni association and has served on the executive committee for ten years. He also is chairman of the Association's plans and objectives committee.

He is a native of Green Cove Springs, Fla., and attended grade and high schools in Palatka. He has a BS in business administration from the University of Florida, class of '32.

In addition to his work with the Alumni Association, Conway has served as president of the Florida Liquified Petroleum Association and of his local Kiwanis Club. He is on the Board of Governors of the Council of 100 for Daytona Beach. His community service also has included service as secretary to the Volusia County Crippled Children Association and treas­urer and board member of the St. James Epis­copal Day School.

At next Spring's Florida Alumni Reunion, Conway will step up to the active presidency of the group, taking the reins from fraternity brother Wilson.

By that time, who knows, maybe there'll be another Florida Pi Kapp waiting in the wings to follow in the footsteps of Brothers Wilson and Conway.

FRATERNITY

Memphis Alumni Organize

An outstanding response to the Voluntary Dues Program by alumni in Memphis, Tennessee, has resulted in the formation of an alumni association. Meeting first at the home of Brother John E. Davitt, 489 Walnut Grove, with Assistant Executive Sec­retary, Ted Scharfenstein, pres­ent, eleven graduate Pi Kapps in Memphis felt it desirable to investigate further their ability to operate as an organized chap­ter.

Later, on May 20, the Mem­phis Pi Kapps met again with Executive Secretary Durward Owen at a local restaurant. Since that meeting, Brother Davitt has been actively creat­ing a working organization. As presently envisaged, the Mem­phis alumni will have two ma­jor purposes: the establishing of a chapter of Pi Kappa Phi at Memphis State University and in rushing local high school students for our undergraduate chapters.

Of special interest is the participation in this activity by Brother George Branson, 989 Stonewall, Memphis 7, Tennes­see, the first initiate into Iota Chapter at George Tech (10-25-13).

Iota, Georgia Tech Chapter, Makes It 50

Iota Chapter came into exist­ence on October 24, 1913, with John D. Hammer serving as initiating officer. To commem­orate this date, a 50th Anni­versary Celebration has been

On Friday, November 8, there will he a banquet, tickets cost­ing $3.50. With Brother George Griffin's help, a block of tickets for the Florida State football game has been reserved for Sat­urday, November 9. The cost is $5.50. An Open House will follow the game. On Sunday, November 10, the chapter has scheduled a formal initiation for alumni to attend.

Further information will he forwarded to Iota alumni in the chapter publication. Anyone needing additional information can secure same by writin «

Dean George Griffin, Georgi: Institute of Technology, 117 Knowles Building, Atlanta, Geor­gia, or Fred Field, Archon of Iota Chapter, 719 Brittian Way, Atlanta, Georgia. Initiates of chapters other than Iota are also invited to attend.

Howard College to have Active Chapter of

Pi Kappa Phi

With Alpha Iota-Auburn, and Omicron-Alabama, con­ducting the initiation, Alpha Eta Chapter will he re-activated at Howard College in Birmingham, Alabama. This event will occur on October 4th and 5th, 1963, when 31 young undergraduates from Howard College will be­come Pi Kapps.

Initiates of Alpha Eta and other Pi Kapps are invited to take part in the banquet. This will he held on Saturday, Octo­her 5, 1963, at 7:00 p.m., in the Private Banquet Room of the Howard College Cafeteria. For further information con­tact V. Hain Huey, 1750 Mayfair Drive, Birmingham, Alabama, or the Central Office.

Families of World War I Veterans

The colleges and universities of America, which supplied the Naval Aviators of World War One, a re now requested to fur­nish contact with the families of these men in order that they may be included in a commemo­rative register now being com­piled by co-operation of Depart­ment of the Navy, the Marine Corps and the Coast Guard.

Many descendants of these former Naval Aviators are stu­dents or recent graduates of our colleges, and may render a con­siderable and appreciated ser­vice by writing to NAVAL AVIATOR REGISTER, 2500 Wisconsin Avenue, N.W., Wash­ington 7, D. C.

For over fifty years, Pi Kappa Ph!i grew and developed in spite of an enormous omission. Dur­ing this time, it was one of the few college Greek letter fraterni­ties not being financially sup­ported by its graduate members. In other words, no alumni dues

·either required or voluntary: were collected.

Following a pilot project in 1960, Pi Kappa Phi initiated a fraternity-wide program of graduate (alumni) situation. Considering the lack of a pro­fessional approach in its imple­mentation, each year's program has been successful.

Those Pi Kapps charged with the administration of the fra­ternity and voluntary alumni officers have made a detailed study and following professional advice have institutionalized the Voluntary Dues Program be­ginning this year, 1963.

Brothers Herlong and Brock have become closely involved

Selling 'fBB" Guns Is Big Business

Brother Robert H. Cowan, Furman Univer­sity '53, sells BB guns for a living.

In fact, he's in charge of all sales for the world's oldest and largest manufacturer of BB guns and toy guns of all types-the Daisy Man­ufacturing Co.

Cowan's sales responsibility also takes in artificial fishing lures and custom-built rods and reels of James Hedden's Sons, the firm that together with Daisy forms the Daisy-Red­don Sales Co. of Rogers, Ark. Brother Cowan is vice president of the company.

As vice president in charge of sales, his re­sponsibilities include supervision of the entire Daisy-Heddon field sales force plus personal supervision of all major national chains, depart­ment and mail order companies with which the firm does business.

"I started as territorial salesman upon grad­uation from Furman University in January, 1953," said Cowan, "I was promoted to assist­ant sales manager in 1955; then to director of sales in 1958 and appointed vice president of Daisy-Heddon Sales Co. upon its origin in 1960."

Brother Cowan, his wife Mary Joe and their daughters, Mary Jill, 5, and Melody Anne, 2, live on Sky Mountain Drive in Rogers, Ark.

Cowan is a member of the National Sales and Marketing Executives International, the Fra­ternal Order of Elks and the official board of the Central Methodist Church of Rogers.

Says he of his successful business career: "Outside of the fact that I feel like I have

been in selling all of my life, that is about the story of my career."

HARRELL HEADS S. A.M.

Another Pi Kapp has recently been elected to the top position in a national organization. This time it is Brother Fred E. Har­rell, Omega, Purdue University, '22. This year he has achieved the presidency of the Society for the Advancement of Manage­ment.

Brother Harrell's activities with S. A. M. have been exten­sive and lengthy, commencing in 1950 as a member of its Board of Directors. Numerous offices and committee assignments have cumulated in his election to President.

After several years as general manager of the Marquette Divi­sion of Curtis-Wright Corp., Brother Harrell joined in the purchase of the Skidmore Gear Company. He is a registered professional engineer and is a member of the Edison Medal Committee of the American In­stitute of Electrical Engineers. (A Pi Kapp, Dr. Kouwenhoven, was last year's winner of the Edison Award.)

He was active in several fra­ternal organizations while at Purdue, among them Tau Beta Pi, Scabbard and Blade, and Eta Kappa Nu. In 1941-42, he served as National President of the latter organization.

HALCOMB MAKES

A BUSINESS OUT OF

IMPERTINENCE

Evidence of an ever increas­ing enthusiasm for the PERT system was further shown re­cently by the announcement that JAMES HALCOMB, Omicron, Alabama, '4 7, has formed his own management consulting organization to assist the federal government and industry to train and implement the tech­nique and its newest extension, PERT COST. Program Evalu­ation and Review Technique is the full name of this Navy-de­veloped mathematical method for integrating multiple tasks.

Following graduation from Alabama, Brother Halcomb re­ceived further graduate work at Purdue, Colorado State Uni­versity, Newark College of En­gineering, and the University of California.

The former program manager for Varian Associates military systems work and project en­gineer on the Polaris program and now head of James Halcomb Associates in Palo Alto is a pio­neer in perfecting PERT as a basic management information and decision-making system for smaller industries or smaller programs typical to subcontracts work. As an aid in implementa­tion he designed a one-dollar nomograph known as a PERT-0-GRAPH circular slide rule computer to get the feel of the PERT mathematics just as a metric ruler could help introduce the metric system. Following its initial publicity, including September 8 Business Week, several thousand copies of the device have been requested by engineers and managers from every type of industry.

Halcomb's first love is elec­tronics, particularly display sys­tems, and he visualizes conduct­ing future research in combin­ing the science of management

further with that of electronit to create substantial impr?~·; ments in the manager's abl~ to make better decisions. '' 1

day, the average manager of 0~ aerospace/electronics progrlll will tell you that planning llr making decisions of time, co'. and tec.h111ical performance still too difficult despite all ~ breakthroughs in every facetct science.

New Colony Of Pi Kappa Phi At Old Dominion College

Further expansion efforts have resulted in the creation of an additional colony for the fraternity at Old Dominion College. Old Domin­ion is a fully accredited liberal arts college founded in 1930. For several years it operated as a branch of the College of William and Mary.

Phillip Meador, son of Brother Herman Meador, Xi Chapter at Roanoke College, acted as organizer for the Central Office. His initial work, covering a three-month period, has given Pi Kappa Phi a group of fourteen excellent undergraduates as colony members. Much work is ahead but such a good start will surely result in an outstanding chapter in the not too distant future.

On March 5, 1910, a re­cent graduate of the Univ. of South Carolina wished to return to Columbia for the chartering of Sigma Chapter. This was only nat­ural for WADE SMITH BOLT, as he had been in­volved in the creation of Sigma Chapter and would not have missed the char­tering unless absolutely nec­essary.

This was a significant in­troduction into Pi Kappa Phi, but it was only the beginning. Others may have ass umed their obligation fulfilled, and retired to a nominal inactive status, but not Wade Bolt. Wade be­lieved his beloved Pi Kappa Phi deserved his continu­ous devotion, and continu­ous was his interest and participation.

In 1914, Brother Bolt be­came editor of the STAR AND LAMP, succeeding its second editor, Brother John D. Hammer. For several years, he not only edited the publication, but several issues were printed and mailed at his expense. Would that more graduates had such a depth of affec­tion.

Although he served as editor of the STAR AND LAMP until 1920, his serv­ices to the Fraternity ex­tended beyond the printed word. Absent from Sigma's chartering, Wade was final­ly initiated at the 13th Su­preme chapter, in 1925. His dream was now fulfilled! The beginning of Omega Chapter at Purdue saw Brother Bolt, now living in Otterbein, Indiana, ever present. As Sigma initiate

number one, he adopted an­other chapter, Omega, and even then his heart was not crowded out of affection for his fraternity.

Over the years, Brother Bolt has contributed con­stantly to the fraternity in ways too innumerable to mention. The present Exec­utive Secretary would be vastly amiss if Brother Bolt's influence over his tenure was not mentioned. For over three years he had enjoyed a weekly ex­change of letters (often containing contributions to the Fraternity) which were inspiring and beneficial. Brother Bolt definitely left his mark on Pi Kappa Phi, and it is just and fitting that his concluding words from his last correspond­ence complete this memo­rial-"Long live Pi Kappa Phi."

-I WILLIAM BERRY

In 1900, a local frater· nity, Psi Delta, was founded at Howard College in Birf· mingham, Alabama. One o its founders was WILLIAM A. BERRY. When Psi Del­ta became Alpha Eta ChaP· ter of Pi Kappa Phi in 1925, Bill Berry, as an alumnus, became one of its charter members. On January 25, 1963, William Berry, age 81, passed on to the ChaP· ter eternal. Upon his death, there passed from the seen~ one of Pi Kappa Phi's mos respected members.

GRADUATES and

USH are not two opposing thoughts. We who are alumni often look upon this Fraternity function as belonging only to the undergraduate mem­bers. This is definitely not true. Rush is the personal obligation of each Pi Kapp- graduate and undergraduate. If you are now a Pi Kapp you should be interested in insuring the future of your Fraternity. Its future is insured by the continuing influx of qualified pledges.

NTIL the day you die, your activities will put you in daily contact with young men who are either in college or who are at that moment mak­ing plans to attend. This contact may be with young men in your neighborhood, church, etc. The contact may be indirect; that is, through intermediate parties such as friends, relatives, business acquaintances or even their parents. Talk up Pi Kappa Phi at every opportunity to these individuals. Keep your Fraternity's name constantly before these potential Pi Kapps.

G is everybody's business. Regardless of your occupation or pro­fession you are busy selling yourself each day. Your Fraternity is but an extension of yourself. Selling the young student Pi Kappa Phi should then be easy. Don't delay, start today selling Pi Kappa Phi. You will also be performing a service for these young men-a fraternity experience will help them develope into better adults.

OW often do we suddenly realize that an opportunity to be of service has just escaped us? This can be occurring at this moment. The boy next door-the newsboy-your business associate's son-the Eagle Scout in the next block-Your Own Son or Younger Brother. Some­where around you there is a boy to whom you can present Pi Kappa Phi. Do it now, and don't forget to send us his name. A reply card is provided for your convenience.

Are You a Pi Kapp? Or Were You One? It'~ surprising to note how many of our alumni refer to their

tatermty affiliation in the past tense, as though their membership no .,;ger existed. Such comments as "I was a Pi Kapp at . . ." and

hen I was a member ... " are not uncommon. . .. , For some reason, the obligations so eagerly assumed as new tnztzates, the oaths taken as lifetime vows, seem to fade in the minds of ~ernb~s after graduation. What was cherished by the undergraduate

ten zs forgotten by the alumnus. h While no one will dispute the fact that fraternities exist primarily for the undergraduates, we f ould remember that membership is for life, and is not something that should become merely a oggy memory. . ~eople who actively support an organization 1zaturally feel a greater sense of identification

llJzth zt than do those who contribute nothing. The same is true in a fraternity. Not all of us can ;ffo~d to give large sums of money, and not all of us live close enough to an undergraduate chapter 0

gzve directly to them of our time and efforts. But there are small things that all of us can do, things that will give us a

sense of accomplishment and pride and help us to continue to feel a part of the Fraternity. One of these is to recommend prospective pledges to our chapters.

In doing this, we aid not only the chapters and the entire Fraternity through the chapters, but we rekindle our own interest in Pi Kappa Phi. Our renewed interest makes us proud, makes us men who say, "I am a Pi Kapp."

Let's keep this Fraternity one we can all be proud of, and maintain our indi­vidual pride by doing our share to helfJ the present undergraduates. Let's be good Pi Kapps!

Are you a Pi Kapp? Or were you one?
