Which Way­Colleges and Universities?

In the August issue of the STAR AND LAMP the vitality of the Fraternity System was dis­cussed. This growth in. most instances is wei· comed by the institutions due to the decided contribution these organizations make to the campus.

Most members of fraternities recognize the various values their fraternity has provided. Our educational institutions are also cognizant of the practical values provided by national fraternities.

Mr. Stewart Howe of the Stewart Howe Alumni Service has enumerated some of the ways in which national fraternities are of practical value to the institutions at which they have chapters:

PERSISTENCE TO GRADUATE The U. S. Department of Health, Educa­

tion, and Welfare recently completed a study of the growing number of students who leave college without being graduated. The study revealed that "fraternity membership was clearly associated with 'a persistence to g'raduate'." Institutions with no recognized fraternities had a lower rate of graduation than schools with them. Schools with na­tional fraternities had higher "persistence" rates than those with only local groups. Members of fraternities at the same institu­tions had better persistence records than non-members.

ATTRACT STUDENTS Fraternities and sororities are effective

volunteer recruiting agencies that attract desirable students to the institution. Without their efforts, most private schools would have to spend thousands more dollars every year to recruit additional students.

PROVIDES HOUSING By p1·oviding housing for a significant

portion of the student body, they save the school the cost of building and operating more dormitories. A school's limited capital funds or borrowing credit can thus be used, instead, for other campus buildings.

DISCIPLINE College and university administrators find

it easier to maintain student discipline among fraternity and sorority members, than among non-members. They use the local chapter undergraduate and alumni, and the national fraternity, as tools to control and inspire the members of each Greek-letter society.

COLOR AND SPIRIT Fraternities and sororities, the healthie~!.

most dynamic and more ready to perpetua ~ themselves student groups on every carn~U' give color and spir·it to student life, mak111j the school more than a drab institution, an. they inspire loyalty to it. College and un~ versity administrators are "hard-put," 0r occasion, to secure student co-operation, 0

1 a generous turn-out for a university even: or a demonstration of support for some pro~; ect. Most of them realize that one of t t most effective ways to stir action and ge~ a good response from the student body is t enlist the co-operation of the local fraternl· ties.

CONTRIBUTIONS Graduates and former students who arl

members of fraternities are known to !JI Jl' more generous, proportionately, than no ,

members in making dollar contributions ~~ their school, and in serving as volunte.ef­help. This situation is of far-reaching sign1

icance to trustees, administrators, and fnC· ulty members.

HOME ATMOSPHERE I Fraternities can do more than the sch0~

itself, to create a "home away /Tom horrle( atmosphere for students, and to help the ne~ student to adjust to the campus environrnell 1 develop new friends and acquaintances, ~~ feel that he "belongs." These groups prov; ~ the young collegian with a useful educat10

1 not found in the courses of study. The~ afford him broadened experiences, expa~ 1 the field of his acquaintances, and give hlnl added ambition to improve his social an economic position.

INSTRUMENTALS ,.r The organized fraternities assure mo ,.

successful intramural athletic progr-ams ~ providing needed supplementary funds, JJ1° ;. spirited participants and competitive teatll·

MAINTAIN TRADITIONS 1

They put the campus charity drives ov~l the top, and maintain traditions and ann'!l 0' events. They play a big part in the protll . tion of ticket sales which finance the st8~1 ing of cultural events on the campus. Stude6. support of the local community welfare 11 nancial funds ordinarily come in large P~Y' from the members of the independent operated fraternities.

LOCAL TAXES ~· The high pr-operty taxes that the Greesl

letter groups pay to the county and lo:jJI governments help finance many of jl campus-community's public services, per~ei the tax-free school to escape many pressll\0 for more responsibility to contribute toW~~· the upkeep of fire and police protect1°5• streets and sewer facilities, and such nece sary facilities within the campus area.

ALPHA ETA CHAPTER

PI KAPPA PHI

REACTIVATES AT

HOWARD COLLEGE

In the year 1900, a number of students at Howard College organized themselves together for the purpose of forming a college fraternitY· This became Psi Delta Local Fraternity which was able to operate successfully in spite of the fact that Howard College was not open tD fraternities at that time.

In 1924, this group was the oldest local fraternity in the State of Alabama. Even with this advantage, the members of the fraternitl' recognized the need for national affiliatioP· That year the local petitioned Pi Kappa Phi for a charter.

This petition was granted, and on April 2~· 1925, with BROTHER GEORGE GRAN~· (Congressman from Alabama), as Installi11g Officer, Alpha Eta Chapter came into existence·

As was true with many undergraduate f!ll' ternity chapters, Alpha Eta became inactl''j during World War II. A brief interlude 0

activity followed the war, but the extended loss was too much.

After a long inactive period, the fraternitr was in a position to reopen its Howard Collegj operation with strength. The administration ° Howard College gave the National Office per· mission to proceed in 1961.

BROTHER AUBREY LANCASTER, the~ an undergraduate at Davidson College, hellr

Peech is especially noteworthy: "An v· Y minority element bound together by

g00dl' my part, let us stop telling the world how 'Ivan the fraternity system is. Let those who do t to enjoy it do so in peace; and those who the IIot Want to enjoy it go their merry way with ll.p Satn.e blessings we would like them to bestow

Howard College­A Growing Institution!

Howard College first came into existence in 1840 when the Baptist churches of Alabama turned their attention towards furnishing edu­cational facilities for young ministers. In No­vember of 1841, the State Convention estab­lished a college in Marion, Alabama, which was to be chartered and named in honor of John Howard, the English reformer. In 1888, this same religious body directed that Howard Col-

3

lege be removed from Marion to Birmingham, Alabama.

Upon the selection of a location in Birming­ham, suitable buildings were constructed. This same location was utilized through 1957, when it was decided to move to another location in Birmingham, rather than expand its present site. Upon the selection of a new site, construc­tion was begun on various classroom buildings. During these six years on the new campus, twenty buildings have been constructed at a cost of 16 million dollars. Seven additional major structures will have been constructed by 1970. 2.9 million dollars is being S'Pent each year for operations and new construction.

Howard College now has 2,300 students, and more than 120 faculty members. It has just recently acquired the old Cumberland School of Law, and this school is now established in a new law building. Next to be constructed will be a new physical science building to house departments of chemistry, mathematics, and physics.

President Wright has stated the College's chartered course for the future: "If our nation is to survive, we must have educated leaders in all walks of life, with faith in God and man. Our purpose in providing the American com­munity with these leaders will be carried for­ward with all our resources."

The last few years in the life of Brother Donn Schindler, Xi '51, read like magazine fiction.

Today Schindler is a partner with a real estate and land development firm in St. Croix, in the Virgin Islands.

But three years ago, Schindler and his Cuban wife, Marcia, were boarding their 26-foot sail­boat and slipping quietly out of Havana Harbor in flight from Castro-dominated Cuba.

That sailboat trip to Miami in the Spring of 1960 was the beginning of an adventurous, sea-going odyssey for the Schindlers. Almost two years later they settled on the island of St. Croix, where they now enjoy a pleasurable but more routine way of life.

Schindler graduated from Roanoke College in 1951 and went into the Navy as a line officer. His nautical training was to serve him well later.

After his three-year Naval hitch was up, Schindler entered Columbia University where he earned his Master's Degree in the School of Business.

From Columbia Schindler went to the Gen­eral Electric Company, where he worked for two years in the United States then requested and was assigned to the company's operation in Havana, Cuba.

6

There he met and married Marcia. Then, in the Spring of 1960, the Castro

government confiscated G-E's Cuban holdings in widespread action that affected hundreds of American businessmen and businesses in Cuba.

The Schindlers decided Cuba was not the safest place for Americans and they left, sail­ing quietly into the night. The belongings they couldn't pack into their boat were confiscated by the Cuban government.

After leaving Cuba, as Schindler recalled the occasion, "We went up north (New York via Miami) for about a month, where Marcia met my family-those who didn't go to the wedding in Havana-and we looked around for a larger boat."

VE'-' 8 ER, 1963

"We spent a month or so in various ports of Puerto Rico. Again we loved the country. The fact that a man and wife alone in a small boat were making rather an unusual cruise opened many doors for us, which wouldn't have opened for the average tourist. We were usually invited out every time we were in port. Articles in the local papers helped too.

"We arrived in St. Thomas in the Virgin Islands just in time for their carnival, which was a rather riotous time for a week. A bunch of our friends from Puerto Rico came over for the festival, and for a week bodies were constantly sprawled out over the decks.

"After the carnival we spent a few weeks cruising throughout the American and British Virgin Islands. The water here was no lovelier than in the Bahamas, but the islands are mountainous, and the trade winds are more noticeable.

"We sailed out across the Anegada Passage and spent the next couple of months sailing up and down the Leeward and Windward Islands. We went down as far as Trinidad, with the mountains of South America (and the Venezuelan coast) clearly visible 10 miles away.

"We decided at about this point that St. Croix is the best all-around island we had seen for our purposes in the entire string of islands from Cuba to Trinidad. St. Croix is a beautiful mountainous island surrounded by the finest sailing waters in the world, no political prob­lems and economically booming."

The "Fiddlers Green" and her crew, which by now also included a dog named "Poodles" made a fast return trip to St. Croix, for the fall hurricane season was approaching, and the 'Windward and Leeward Islands was a windv breeding ground. ·

Schindler at last had the wind dead astern of his craft and he rigged twin staysails sheeted to the tiller so the boat would sail herself downwind.

"This is sailing at its very best with nothing for the crew to do but watch the seas roll past," said Schindler.

In August, 1961, the Schindlers dropped anchor in Christiansted harbor, St. Croix. After investigating various business opportunities, Schindler decided his best bet for the future lay in real estate. He joined the firm of Erikson, Hamilton & Associates and today is a partner in the company, whose cable address is simple "Paradise, St. Croix."

Having found a home at last, the Schindlers probably won't take off on another long cruise in paradise anytime soon. But it's a safe bet they'll visit a nearby island now and then.

Said Schindler, "This is probably the last remaining frontier under the U. S. Flag, and there is a future here for someone getting in on the ground floor.

"Besides, where else can you go swimming and sailing 365 days out the year?"

SCHOLARSHIP ATTITUDES

by DR. DONALD COME

There is one major problem which faces most undergraduate chapters-that of providing stimulation toward better scholarship or creat­ing the basic atmosphere and attitudes for better scholarship endeavor. That is not to say that immediate, specific factors such as a study table, awards to pledges and activities for scholarship attainment or improvement, a tutoring system, and the enforcement of quiet hours are of little value. Working properly, each of these has a place and affords a kind of stimulative force in itself. But unless ac­companied by an ATTITUDE which prizes academic success as a worthy attainment, these devices are not apt to accomplish their hoped­for goal.

With this much said, it should also be recog­nized that the creation of ATTITUDES more conducive to good scholarship is not some­thing which is accomplished overnight. If dur­ing this school year you make a start and help to establish an ongoing program, a major task would be accomplished.

Stimulation of better scholarship can come either from within or from outside the chap­ter-preferably from within. Within the chapter a method must be formalized under which the feelings and purposes of those who are anxious to establish a good scholarship program may be communicated to the whole chapter. Stimulation from without can come from contacts with ALUMNI, FACULTY, and other persons who are interested in the pro­motion of good scholarship.

Some specific steps which could be taken within a chapter are:

SET A GOAL At an early chapter meeting of the new school year the archon and other chapter officers could emphasize the aim of scholar­ship improvement as a major goal for the coming year. A program of action, including steps to be taken both for re-enforcing academic attitudes and for providing specific a~ds in the way of quiet hours, tutoring, etc., could be presented and discussed. The aim would be to make all members conscious of the purpose of improving scholarship.

PERSONAL APPEAL At least once a 'inonth a portion of the reg­ular meeting could be set aside for a s_hort talk by a member on some aspect of scholar­ship improvement. The brothers giving these talks should be selected with care. They

should not necessarily be the top-ranking students in the chapter. Probably having greater impact would be a talk by a person who does a creditable, better-than-average, academic performance and who also coJll· mands the respect of chapter members on other bases. Such a person could indicatde and display by his own example that goo scholarship is related in a positive, not !I negative fashion to other valued activitieS·

Among the possible topics for these talkS could be:

a. How scholarship is related to being a good fraternity member and to fulfilling the obligations obtaining to fraternity meJ11· bership.

b. What individual benefits are gained froJ11 good scholastic attainment.

c. What techniques for study or for eJ(· amination preparations have been found helpful.

INDIVIDUAL COUNSELING Chapter members who are low in grades or who by actions or words have helped create poor academic ATTITUDES and patte~ns in the chapter could be approached for JJI' formal discussions by members of th~ scholarship committee of the chapter or bl selected, chapter officers. Aid in their owll academic programs might be offered or r~ quests to refrain from interfering with t)'l chapter's program might be made.

OUTSIDE INFLUENCE Stimulation toward better scholarship fro~

outside the chapter could come from a serieS fd talks, scheduled one per month, which wou t be brief (maybe a half hour in length) bllr for which attendance would be required fo t chapter members and pledges. Subsequen que~tions or discussion would be useful. IIIUrd trahve of the type of presentation which cou be given are the following: d

a. A talk by an alumnus on why he wou!Jl like to see his chapter outstanding 1

js scholarship or how good scholarshiP beneficial subsequent to graduation. t

b. A talk by a person from the Departrl'le~. of Education or Department of ps !J· chology on good study and learning tee niques.

c. A talk by someone from the universi~~; placement bureau or job-intervie"W1 e­service indicating the relationshiP. ~S· tween scholarship and job opportun1tJ .

1

d A ~ . talk by an outstanding professor on rl field and problems of major interest. tn ·an active, enthusiastic person is aske~gllt talk on an intriguing topic this :rnJ 0~1 help to create a better tone of intellect activity in the chapter.

Corrhen track adviser Homer Bast of Roanoke fo~ge said four years ago that his star per­the er Dick Emberger, Xi, '59, might make an D.s. Olympic team in 1964, he didn't bat

~hose were mighty words. B!o ut Brother Richard John Emberger, a tow0lnfield, N. J., native, has come a long way saidahd accomplishing what his former coach

~() ... EMBER, 1963

Suddenly Emberger turned on a burst of speed that ate up the 10 meters between him and the Russian, and won the race with a time of 4.26.

Harriman, obviously impressed by his coun­tryman's splendid showing, sent a personal commendation to Emberger.

Emberger, a first lieutenant in the U. S. Marine Corps, also won the 110 meter hurdles and the 400 meter run during the grueling 10-event decathlon competition in Moscow.

In the overall decathlon competition he racked up 7,113 points (which he considered below his par) and helped the U.S. Men's Team edge to a 119-114 victory over the Soviets.

Emberger went to Poland following the Russian meet where the U. S. track team com­peted in another series of track events. Later several other European track events were en­tered by the team.

Brother Emberger won his berth on the U.S. team at the national AA U championship elim­inations at Corvallis, Oregon, last June.

At Roanoke College, Dick Emberger won eleven varsity letters in cross country, swim­ming and indoor and outdoor track. He took the Little Eight diving title three years.

Said t ack adviser Bast when Emberger was in his senior year at Roanoke:

"He's improving all the time. There's no telling just how far he can go in track. He has all the tools-desire, ability, and the love of hard work. I'd say he had an excellent chance of making the Olympic team in 1964."

It looks like Brother Emberger is almost there.

full knowledge of the goodness of Pi Kappa Phi.

"Saturday morning 18 alumni mem­bers of Chi Lambda Zeta took the same course and in the early part of the afternoon the entire group of 38 men united for the completion of the ceremony.

"And then this group, having knocked at the portals of Pi Kappa Phi and having been allowed to enter, proceeded to celebrate their happy fortune; quietly, in keeping with the solemnity of the occasion, but with a great, deep joyousness," Atkinson wrote.

The celebration that Brother At­kinson wrote of 35 years ago was not all quiet and solemn.

Soon after the final installation ceremonies had been completed and the existence of the new Pi Kapp chapter had been declared, the new brothers and their fellow brothers from Cornell trooped off to wind­swept New Beaver field to brave the chilly winds and watch the Penn State football team down the George Wash­ington University, 13-0.

That night a banquet was held for the new chapter and its guests at the Nittany Country Club.

The guest speaker of the evening was W. S. Hoffman, registrar of Penn State and a member of the Lambda Chi Alpha Fraternity.

The Pi Kapps also heard from Dr. Work· Brother Ostergren, who head­ed th~ New York Alumni Chapter; Brother Joe Moody, archon of Psi Chapter; Brother Walt Hoffman, archon of newly born Alpha Mu; and Brother Ralph Crane,, pr~sident of th': late alumni orgamzatwn of Chi Lambda Zeta.

What had come into being that day had its first breath of life in 1923.

David T. Peek, class of '23 at Penn State, together with several as.so­ciates, united to form a group havmg common ideals of character, culture and intellectual achievement.

Those who with Peek formed the first gathering of the new fraternal organization were Arthur Jones, A. W. Brubaker, R. B. Crane, R. M. Zook, R. M. Henricks, H. R. Ru?olph, P . C. Craig, J. M. Alter, C. E. Kn·ken­dall, M. M. Stopp, and H . M. Sho­walter.

The group continued to grow in numbers under the leadership of Crane the first house president, and on May 7, 1923, became the Chi Lamb­da Zeta Fraternity with its own con­stitution and by-laws.

Trail of Tradition

AlPHA MU PENN STATE

by PAUL PLAWIN

Chi Lambda Beta Pin

In the spring of that year the mem­bers secured and furnished their own house.

It had been the early wish of the charter members that their fraternity someday be affiliated with a strong national fraternity. with principles in accord with their own.

Thus, when the fraternity was in­corporated by the State of Pennsyl­vania in 1926, it submitted a petition to Pi Kappa Phi.

A year earlier, the alumni of Chi Lambda Zeta were legally organized for the purpose of establishing a building fund for the fraternity. The following year lots were purchased in an approved fraternity section of State College. The future home of the chapter was to be built there.

At the beginning of the 1927 school term, the fraternity grew out of its original house and moved into more spacious quarters closer to the center of State College activities.

Soon thereafter the chapter entered into Pi Kappa Phi.

Wrote Brother Atkinson of the in­duction night banquet:

"Before the group had risen to leave the tables to the mercy of the busboys, the new members were treat­ed to their first Pi Kappa Phi songs by the boys from Cornell. And such was the appreciation on the part of the auditors, and such the versatility on the part of the entertainers that this pleasant spirit remained in as­cendency for the remainder of the evening, fitting end to a wonderful week-end."

AWARDS

University of Georgia-

LAMBDA IS MOST IMPROVED

CHAPTER-

Wins Houser Award

Excellence is reward in itself, but often­times great improvement is neither rewarded nor recognized. Most awards given are in recognition of excellence in a particular field. The Theron A. Houser Memorial A ward for Chapter Achievement has the distinction of recognizing overall chapter improvement in various fields without the necessity of top performance, or excellence, in any given field or in any particular period.

The Theron A. Houser Memorial Award was created in 1959 when an anonymous donation was given to the fraternity in Brother Houser's name for such a use. This was in recognition of Brother Houser's twenty-four years of con­tinuous service to the fraternity as a member of the National Council.

The Award is a "traveling" award, ex­tremely handsome, and highly valued by its recipients. Sigma Chapter, University of South Carolina, was its first recipient in 1960. It was followed by Kappa, University of North Carolina, 1961, and Beta Lambda, University of Tampa, 1962.

This year's recipient is Lambda Chapter at the University of Georgia. Taking into con­sideration as many of the various areas of fra­ternity operation as possible, Lambda Chapter has exhibited outstanding improvement in all areas. Their improvement in the area of schol­arship, membership, and alumni rebtions has been especially noteworthy.

From a chapter that was in danger of losing its charter two years ago, Lambda has grown in strength, reputation, and in ability, until it is one of the outstanding fraternities on the campus at the University of Georgia. In rec­ognition of i ts growth, several of its alumni have gotten together and for the first time in a number of years, Lambda Chapter owns its own home. The members of Lambda Chapter recognize that they have progressed, but at the same time are cognizant of their continued need for further advancement and improvement.

At Pi Kappa College by National President John Deimler.

THE PRESIDENT'S PlAQUE

Of all of the chapters of Pi Kappa Phi Fra­ternity, the best chapter publication was pro­duced by Alpha Iota Chapter at Auburn Uni­versity. The Alota, Alpha Iota's publication, was chosen the best chapter publication in Pi Kappa Phi Fraternity of all the eligible publi­cations in the race for the President's Plaque for the year 1962-63. This award, the Presi­dent's Plaque, was presented to Alpha Iota at the 1963 Pi Kapp College closing session in Charleston, S. C.

Making the presentation was National Presi­dent John Deimler. The editor of the winning publication was Brother Lige Robbins.

It was an extremely close race, with Beta Iota Chapter of the University of Toledo plac­ing second with its Beta Iota Lite. Third place in the judging went to the Beta Eta Data, of Beta Eta Chapter at Florida State University. The judges for this year indicated that several chapters having only two issues really had excellent publications, but were not eligible inasmuch as three issues are required for the competition.

The judges for the 1962-63 award were the staff of The Beaumont Enterprise, a news­paper in Beaumont, Texas. Mr. Robert Akers, editor-in-chief of The Beaumont Enterprise, was the chief judge. Mr. Akers is a member of Phi Delta Theta Fraternity from the Uni­versity of Texas, is president of the Beau­mont Chamber of Commerce, and president of the Beaumont Rotary Club.

In judging this contest, the judges always place emphasis on content, with no chapter being penalized for the medium used. The content is expected to be dedicated entirely to the enlightenment of the chapter's alumni. The following is the point count used as a basis of judging:

POINTS Coverage of local chapter activities Coverage of chapter alumni news ..... . . . Editorial material concerning fraternity

FRATERNITY

Voluntary Dues Return Far Exceeding 1962!

Co-chairmen Glen Brock, President of Gulf, Mobile, Ohio Railroad, and Congressman Syd Herlong announce their pleasure at the response to the 1963 Voluntary Dues Program. With the program but half completed, re­sponses already have been received from more alumni this year than were received the entire program in 1962. Returns to the National Fraternity as of November 1, 1963, show 790 alumni, contributing $7,453.25, for an average dues return of $9.50 per response.

A third mailing to the alumni will be forwarded on or about December 1, 1963. All those not having re­sponded to the first two mailings, and to the appeal on page 17 of this issue of the Star and Lamp, are encouraged to consider doing so upon receipt of the December mailing.

West German Chancellor Adenauer Speaks On

Fraternities Speaking at a reunion of old grads

of the University of Freiburg, from which he graduated in 1897, Time Magazine in a recent issue quotes the Chancellor of West Germany as fol­lows:

"When a student enters the Uni­versity, he or she is neither a finished man nor a finished woman. One is never completely finished in life. A boy needs a special atmosphere. It is like a plant that grows up, or a young tree. It depends on how the air is, on the surroundings he is in, on the earth that gives him nourishment. I believe a fraternity can give a young student a great deal. I look back at my student time and can only say that the atmos­phere which I found in the fraternities has affected me for my whole life. The student can only be raised by the fellowship of his peers. As for the burgeoning revival of fraternities since World War II (40% of West German students now belong) der Alte main­tained that 'after the terrible collapse

at the end of the war, the rise of such a tradition is of very vital and great significance for all the German peo­ple.'"

Rice Memorial Fund­Tax Exempt

After thirteen years of activity, the United States Internal Revenue Serv­ice has at last granted the D. D. Rice Memorial Fund tax-exempt status for donations thereto. More coverage on this announcement will be given in the February issue of the Star and Lamp. In the meantime, those alumni wishing to make last-minute tax­exempt donations for the calendar year 1963, are encouraged to give consideration to the D. D. Rice Fund.

The income from this fund's invest­ments is used in granting scholarships and loans to needy and deserving students. The students receiving these loans and grants often aid the fra­ternity by their participation in its affairs on a campus where they use the money for scholastic purposes. In addition, a large percentage of the principal of this fund has been in­vested in the past in real estate loans to assist undergraduate chapters in securing adequate housing.

This fund merits your contributions as both a student assistance concept, and also a distinct service to your fra­ternity.

Make checks payable to: D. D. Rice Memorial Foundation, and for­ward same to Mr. Jack Bell, treasurer, D. D. Rice Memorial Foundation, 6764 LaLoma Drive, Jacksonville 17, Flori­da.

terest and have encouraged many young men to, of course, join my fraternity if it's the one they prefer but by all means to join a fraternity because it will enrich their lives not only while in college but for all the years thereafter. To this I can person­ally attest .... Congressman A. Sydney Herlong, Jr., Florida, University of Florida.

Congressman Grant I value fraternity membership

because it was voluntarily ex­tended by a chapter group and accepted voluntarily by me. It was based upon congenialty, sociability, and adaptability with a mutual feeling that all could contribute something worth while for the common good.

Not only did fraternity mem­bership give me an opportunity to make cherished friends dur­ing undergraduate days, but has offered me an increased oppor­tunity as an alumnus to meet brothers from other chapters, many which have developed into lasting friendships.

The American college frater­nity is something unique in col­lege life and has contributed immeasurably to the betterment of our college system. . . . Con­gressman George Grant, D. Ala­bama, University of Alabama.

Senator Johnston It is appropriate at this time

to commend the Fraternities in the Nation's Colleges and Uni­versities for the great contri­bution made in the development of young men.

I remember well my college days and the great bonds of friendship created among the members of not only my own Fraternity but among members of all the fraternities on the campus. We learned how to live and work together, and this training has lived with each of us throughout our lives. The friendships which sprang up among us have proved insepara­ble, and it is these strong ties among men that keep our Nation strong. . . . Honorable Olin D. Johnston, South Carolina, Uni­versity of South Carolina.

ARE FRATERNITIES PAYINGTHEIRWAY?

The answer is YES in Cham­paign-Urbana, Illinois, where the University of Illinois fra­ternities distribute $3,250,000 locally each year.

NOTE: The following is re­printed from a folder of Bresee­Warner, specialists in fraternity management and accounting with main office in Champaign, Illinois, as based upon factual information regarding the finan­cial operations of fraternities and sororities at the University of Illinois. The financial contri­bution referred to is to one fra­ternity community: multiply this by every fraternity campus in the country and the result will prove the answer to be YES!

Did you ever figure what a fraternity means to your com­munity? Everyone has his own ideas about a fraternity being good or bad and whether a col­lege student should become a member of a social fraternity.

However, the financial contri­bution of a fraternity to your community means much more than this in real dollars. The fol­lowing facts and figures were compiled on the 57 fraternities and 29 sororities at the Univer­sity of Illinois and illustrates their definite value to the Cham­paign-Urbana community. This information serves only as a sample of what all fraternities and sororities throughout the United States are doing for their local communities.

Payroll The monthly payroll of fra­

ternities amounts to $35,580.99, that of sororities $21,870.00, or a total of $57,450.99.

This total payroll of more than a half million dollars per year would be equivalent to a business employing 127 people with an average salary ranging from $300.00 to $1,000.00 per month. This payroll goes into the hands of many employees who would otherwise not be able to support themselves in the

1 6

Champaign-Urbana community. In addition to this, approxi­

mately 775 jobs are provided for students as waiters, dishwash­ers, and kitchen helpers. The major portion of student jobs in this category are provided by fraternities and sororities since the University now employs union personnel in the residence halls.

Local Taxes The fraternities pay $105,-

062.00 in real estate taxes and the sororities $64,740.00 for a total of $169,801.00; personal property taxes paid by fraterni­ties amounts to $8,550.00 and sororities $4,205.00 making a total of $12,755.00.

If the average family paid $400.00 per year in real estate and personal property taxes, it would take 456 new families to equal this tax input into Cham­paign-Urbana. Also, the same gross input of $182,557 in taxes from 456 new families would not reflect the same net profit to the community since Champaign­Urbana would have to provide more streets, street lights, sew­ers, school facilities, and teach­ers, police protection, fire pro­tection, etc., for the new families which is not necessary for fra­ternities and sororities. Also, please remember if the Univer­sity owned these properties, there would be no real estate tax realized by the community. The University is tax exempt on nearly all properties in both Champaign and Urbana.

Dollar and Income to the Community

The average fraternity spends $44,087.33 per year while an average sorority will spend $42,-560 in a year. This means all fraternities and sororities on the University of Illinois Campus will spend more than $3,600,000 each year. Assuming 90 per cent of all expenditures are made in the Champaign-Urbana com­munity, over $3,250,000 is local­ly distributed every year.

of the $3,250,000 spent lo~~t B would be lost since most of cl University purchases of ff r and housing needs, such as 0, niture and maintenance ite~ are made away from Ch8~ paign-Urbana in more bU quantities. .

With very little asked in. ~ turn, fraternities and sororJll have established themselves ~sr very important financial par . A the Champaign-Urbana corndJil; nity. These figures adjuste .. other colleges and univers11r would show the same res~t from community to commun;6 ~

The facts DO indicate frB ~ nities are paying their waY·

A similar report, prepared~ Boylan and King of Tuscalo~J Alabama, indicates that frll\ 't nities at the University of ~0: I bama injected $1,534,478.00 9

am was to continue. to 1 ~uccess it was! Over 150 Pi Kapps attested llo his following the closing session. They are cb w back on their respective campuses as ca apter officers, trained and inspired, ready to

try the name of Pi Kappa Phi ever forward. sio'I'he experiences of the two preceding se~­ou ns Were put to the test in Charleston. Van­\\li~h alumni instructors coupled .their e~orts th the National Office to proJect a smgle as~lne--"I have promises to keep," into every

'l'ect of ~hapter operation. . . the he entire leadership school was msp1red by ~OB 0Pening session remarks by ADMIRAL ingt POWERS, Washington and Lee, of Wash­te on, D. C., as he charged all present to ha~ernber that they were leaders, ·and as su~h cha ~any promises to keep in directing their l ers' operations. tionROTRER HOWARD LEAKE, past Na­tet al President, and former Executive ~ec­chaary, Presented a brilliant and emobon-

brge.d address on the ritual of the fraternity. uring the days following the opening ses-

Students and Alwnni being welcomed by Dr. George Grice, President of College of Charleston.

sion, there were other alumni leaders present to give those in attendance the advantage of their knowledge. These included: REVEREND C. JONES TYLER, Emory University, of Berk­eley California; DR. MARTINE PEARCE, Uni~ersity of Florida, of Gainesville, Florida; RALPH MORROW, East Michigan University, of Gainesville, Florida; JIM NETTLES, Florida State, of Augusta, Georgia; W. BER­NARD JONES, JR., College of Charleston, of Pinewood, S. C.

The entire National Council of the fraternity was present and each N ationral officer took part in the instruction.

Members of Alpha Chapter gave those in attendance an extra bonus by conducting an outstanding ritual of initiation.

The highlight of the proceedings was the ded­ication of a plaque at 90 Broad Street in Charleston. This plaque commemorates in bronze the founding of Pi Kappa Phi in that building in 1904. The fraternity was honored to have the wife of FOUNDER HARRY MIX­SON present and to her fell the privilege of unveiling the plaque.

The concluding banquet was honored with the presence of FOUNDER SIMON FOGARTY. Following an address by FOUNDER FO­GARTY a presentation of diplomas to all in attenda~ce was made by National President DE IMLER.

This is but a brief account of the four-day school. In no way could words depict the spirit of fraternalism which prevailed. To many the formal instruction was but a brief inter­lude between the real lessons that passed from brother to brother as those in attendance personally experienced a national fraternity at its best.

ture, although they found their begin­ning in the religious rituals as fore­runners and examples, no doubt. Let's mention graduation, flag lowering, of­ficer and membership induction as a few of this type.

Rituals, as we think of them, lend solemnity and beauty to an occasion, they are impressive in their form and uniformity. They preserve and pre­sent basic knowledge and teaching in a ceremonial dress, which in turn reach the deeper recesses of the mem­ory.

Our Pi Kappa Phi ritual of mem­bership has in a small way the form and philosophy of the Masonic ritual, without its length and repetition. Masonry dates back to the 11th cen­tury and thus in its age and spread in membership has become father and foundation to many other rituals of similar purpose.

In its early years, Masonry was an organization of practicing masons. Similar to a craft union of today, its membership was limited to men who were stone masons or artisans or who were apprenticed as such and of char­acter worthy of the association cre­ated. An entering apprentice was in­structed in the craft and when found proficient was admitted to full mem­bership, after taking an oath which included fealty to the king, loyalty to the lodge, morality in living, honesty in work performance, obedience to God.

This craft of masonry gradually disappeared as the trend of building gothic cathedrals slowed and stopped, but the association was so highly en­joyed and sought that it was given new life and continuous existence by the induction of men of worth and character who were not stone masons. The ritual of induction became one of figurative nature rather than actual training, but the same virtues were extolled and emphasized. It was a ceremony of meticulous detail and solemn dignity. .

By reason of circumstances of .Its use our own ritual is short and sim­ple,' but it has beauty of staging and real teaching import. When you an: alyze the ritual of Masonry and PI Kappa Phi you will reach the con­clusion that each has four purposes in view in reaching for the mind of the neophyte who undergoes the proc­ess.

The first is to ascertain worthiness. Next is to teach certain principles

and facts. The third is to inspire the listener

with high ideals. The fourth is to impress the exper­

ience in the listener's memory. The architects of our ritual have

created well. I use the plural "archi­tects" to give credit to n;any devot.ed minds which have contnbuted ~o I~s building. I would l.ike t~ emphasize I.n passing that the ntual IS not. a static thing but is open to further Improve­ment and embellishment and se~ks your ideas of betterment. N? van::­tion from the context as prmted IS permissible, but changes in thi~ print­ed version can be made by usmg the fraternity's channels of revision and

correction. Variation in the me­chanics of the presentation and its outside dressing can be had, so long as the goals of beauty of presenta­tion and of the seriousness of its pur­poses are held in mind.

Our ritual is brief for obvious rea­sons, but in its brevity it covers the purposes and requirements in dra­matic and memorable manner if pre­sented in a spirit and atmosphere of seriousness and devotion which is de­manded for desired effects.

Remember that in Pi Kappa Phi we are creating enduring friendships and a brotherly association for a long period of years. This calls for a firm foundation of mutual respect, confi­dence and affection.

The cornerstone of this foundation is choosing your material carefully. There is no substitute for good char­acter.

The second major stone of the foun­dation is an absorbing and impressive induction into the group. Fraternity is a matter of the heart and spirit. And therein lies the place of the rit­ual. It is to touch the heart and teach the lessons of brotherhood.

It is good for all of us to recall now and then the high spots of our ritual and to keep in mind the conti­nuity of the presentation.

The highest point in the solemn proceeding is the taking of the oath. In this we took upon ourselves the lifetime promise to be loyal and to serve to the best of our abilities. Along with the word love, I class loy­alty and service as the finest and most significant words in our language. These are the primary values that the fraternity stands for. They encom­pass the good things of life and any departure therefrom is to touch the figurative death which the ritual also speaks of in dramatic terms.

The fraternity calls to the individ­ual to lose himself in projects of high worth, by which he can lessen the ties of self-interest. In this we do nothing but copy and emphasize the teachings of Jesus Christ. Self-worship is truly the way of destruction. Service to and consideration of others are the Great Physician's antidote.

The symbols of ideals of Pi Kappa Phi are both appropriate and attrac­tive, as the latter section of the ritual recounts. Certainly we should not lose sight of the student's lamp in the light of your position as students. Burn it at midnite, if need be, keep it filled with the oil of light, keep it lit all of your life. Study is a never­ending demand. If we lose our status as interested and adequate students, then none is worthy of fraternity membership.

The story of the ritual is one of many wonderful promises to keep. If they are kept, then we as individuals can get the greatest comfort and joy from an inspirational association; we can assuredly say that Pi Kappa Phi is of the best as an organization, and will make wonderful history in the days ahead.

Let's keep our promises, and do justly, love mercy and walk humbly before God.
