H  Fraternity  to  me  is  Brotherhood,  one  of  the  most  impelHng  objectives  of  man. 

Perhaps  one  of  the  most  beautiful  as  well  as  meaningful  mottoes  that  has  been 

conceived  by  man  is  that  of  the  French  Nation — "liberty-equality-fraternity." 

While  the  creators  of  that  motto  may  not  have  had  fraternity  as  we  know  it  in  mind, 

it  still  paints  a  realistic  picture  of  our  institution. 

Fraternity  does  not,  nor  will  it,  indulge  in  slavery — it  is  founded  upon  liberty.  Being 
a  melting  pot  of  men  of  various  faiths,  desires,  and  objectives,  it  must  of  its  nature  be 
founded  on  the  equality  of  all  men  who  become  members,  for  without  it  fraternity's 
foundations  would  be  unsound.  And  the  word  Fraternity  blends  all  its  objectives, 
desires,  and  attainments  into  what  we  know  as  Brotherhood. 

In  these  days  of  unrest  there  are  those  who  would  destroy  us,  take  away  from  us 
those  fundamental  rights  which  are  actually  the  rights  of  all  peoples  to  be  free;  to 
enjoy  companionship  with  those  of  like  thoughts  and  ideals.  Upon  our  proving  that 
our  ideals  and  objectives  are  worth  while  we  will  enjoy  the  future  of  Fraternity.  But 
we  must  do  more;  we  must  be  prepared  to  do  that  which  is  necessary  to  protect  our 
institution  by  action  as  well  as  thought.  It  seemingly  does  not  deter  criticism  by  un- 
believers to  do  good,  to  strive  for  the  betterment  of  our  members,  and  to  live  and 
act  in  the  manner  of  men  of  stability,  courage,  and  faith.

Voice 
of  tbie 
Fraternity 


Readers  are  urged  to  communicate.  Sig  Ep 
viewpoints  from  the  "grass  roofs"  of  the 
Fraternity  are  valuable  and  interesting  and 
not  otherwise  obtained  and  thus  form  a  vital 
part  of  the  Journal. 


Found:  One  Badge 

I  am  a  dormitory  counselor  at  Kent  State  Uni- 
versity. One  of  the  freshmen  found  a  S  *  E  badge 
this  summer  in  Cleveland.  He  gave  it  to  me  since 
I  am  a  Sig  Ep  here  at  Kent. 

I  would  appreciate  it  if  you  would  put  a 
FOUND  notice  in  the  Journal.  It  is  a  full-sized 
badge  and  the  chapter  designation  is  "E."  The 
pin  has  the  initials  E.G.W.  and  the  number  236  on 
the  back.  The  brother  who  owns  the  pin  is  his 
chapter's  chaplain. — Frank  D.  Spiegelberc,  Kent 
State  Chapter,  202  North  Lincoln,  Kent,  Ohio 


'Weed  Out  the  Bungs! 

There  must  be  thousands  of  alumni  who  read 
the  Journal  but  never  take  time  to  express 
appreciation  for  each  issue.  The  November  issue 
seems  a  particularly  good  one^— in  fact,  I  think 
the  magazine  is  growing  in  quality. 

The  anonymous  letter  on  page  36  raises  a  note 
of  sympathy  and  concern.  I  spent  four  years  at 
NYA  in  the  thirties  and  I  saw,  as  I  imagine  most 
fraternities  do,  a  sag  in  morale  during  that  time, 
plus  a  revival  of  spirit  also.  We  had  a  strong 
alumni  group  near  us  and  I  believe  they  helped  to 
straighten  things  out,  although  their  influence  was 
so  subtle  that  I  never  was  conscious  of  it. 

An  upswing  in  chapter  morale  is  usually  led  by 
a  core  of  seniors  (maybe  juniors  also)  who  en- 
force neatness,  study  quiet  time,  respectable 
hours,  respect  for  the  homemother,  participation 
in  valid  campus  activities,  in  fact  all  facets  of  liv- 
ing common  to  educated  gentlemen. 

It  would  seem  better  for  the  chapter  to  have 
15-20  well-roimded  and  good-intentioned  men 
rather  than  a  passel  of  hastily  pledged  kooks.  Fi- 
nances will  be  a  problem  for  a  while  but  a  year 
or  two  of  more  selective  rushing  and  more  con- 
cern by  a  hard  core  of  members  will  prove  suc- 
cessful in  the  long  run. 

What  does  the  district  governor  know  of  this 
chapter?  Who  are  the  interested  alumni?  Is  the 
house  financially  in  good  standing?  What's  the 
housemother  doing  through  aU  this?  How  are  the 


scholastic  grades?  Weed  out  the  bums  and  start 
over. 

I'd  like  to  compliment  William  O'Brien,  the 
present  corresponding  secretary  at  Syracuse,  for 
finally  getting  NYA  back  into  the  news.  The 
Journal  is  read  by  far  more  people  than  the 
chapter  men  usually  realize. 

It's  good  to  find  NYA  is  still  alive  and  kicking. 
— D.  Carr  Whitehead,  Syracuse,  '37,  10105  Har- 
new  East,  Oak  Lawn,  111. 

Dedication  Footnote 

I  felt  you  would  want  to  include  in  your  cover- 
age of  the  Headquarters  dedication  in  the  next 
Journal  the  substantial  and  significant  participa- 
tion therein  by  the  brothers  of  District  XXX,  who, 
I  am  sure,  local  chapters  notwithstanding,  were 
most  amply  in  evidence  throughout  the  weekend. 

For  your  information,  here  are  some  statistics: 

New  Jersey  Alpha,  Stevens  Tech,  was  repre- 
sented by  17  brothers  and  pledges,  their  house- 
mother Mrs.  Grace  Rettig,  and  four  dates  from 
New  Jersey. 

New  York  Delta,  RPI,  was  represented  by  5 
brothers. 

The  Seton  Hall  Colony  was  represented  by  4 
members. 

In  addition,  the  District  Governor  and  Assis- 
tant Governor  (Ron  Fenolio,  Calif.  A)  were  pres- 
ent. That  totals  about  11,500  man-miles,  by  the 
way. 

The  District  also  sponsored  a  reception  at  the 
John  Marshall  Hotel  for  Grand  Chapter  officers, 
district  governors,  the  Headquarters  staflF,  Past 
Grand  Presidents,  Journal  editors,  and  other 
brothers. — Bruce  H.  Hasenkamp,  Dartmouth,  '60, 
Governor  of  District  30,  120  Broadway,  Room 
3250,  New  York,  N.Y. 


►  Comments  from  some  of  the  Stevens  men 
who  attended  follow: 

Rich  Kielar,  '70:  "The  dedication  was  inspir- 
ing to  me  individually.  Seeing  the  physical  as- 
pects of  National,  and  meeting  founders  Carter 
and  Cox  was  impressive,  and  wiU  leave  memories 
with  me.  The  dedication  made  me  feel  much  more 
a  part  of  the  goings  on  at  the  national  level." 

Dennis  Erdman,  '69:  "I  primarily  enjoyed  the 
opportunity  of  meeting  members  of  other  chapters 
and  exchanging  ideas  with  them.  I  felt  the  dance 
was  the  highlight  for  me,  but  the  impressiveness 
of  the  new  National  Headquarters  building  left 
perhaps  the  most  lasting  impression.  The  frater- 
nal atmosphere  which  pervaded  the  air  was  most 
heartening  and  enjoyable." 

John  Scillieri,  '69:  "I  was  truly  impressed  by 
the  rooms  in  the  headquarters.  The  number  of  Sig 
Eps  in  attendance  was  somewhat  disappointing, 
especially  in  light  of  the  fact  that  half  the  Ste- 
vens Tech  brotherhood  attended  despite  a 
350-mile  trip.  The  cocktail  hour  and  the  dance 


were  most  enjoyable,  and  the  trip  was  most 
worthwhile.  The  symbolism  in  the  various  parts  of 
the  house  was  most  interesting." 

John  Ritger,  '69:  "I  was  particularly  moved  by 
meeting  the  Founders,  and  enjoyed  the  affair  very 
much." 


Firm  Stand  JTrged 

It  was  recently  brought  to  my  attention  that 
several  fraternities  at  Michigan  State  University 
are  suspected  of  sponsoring  marijuana  parties  for 
their  members.  A  number  of  fraternity  men  are 
also  suspected  of  possessing  and  using  drugs. 

I  must  stress  that  no  allegations  have  yet  been 
proved.  However,  the  conditions  prevailing  here  at 
Michigan  State  have  served  to  demand  that  frater- 
nities on  our  campus  take  a  firm  stand  on  the 
subject  of  possession  and/or  use  of  drugs  by  fra- 
ternity men. 

Michigan  Epsilon  has  not  and  will  not  tolerate 
such  a  situation  in  our  chapter. 

We  urge  our  brothers  across  the  country  to 
take  a  realistic  look  at  their  chapter  policies  in 
view  of  the  seriously  detrimental  effects  violation 
of  federal  and  state  narcotics  laws  will  have  on 
individual  brothers,  on  local  operations  and  on 
Sigma  Phi  Epsilon  as  a  whole. 

This  is  an  excellent  opportunity  for  us  to  show 
that  Sigma  Phi  Epsilon  stands  for  decency  and 
maturity,  and  to  protect  ourselves  from  a  perhaps 
unsuspected  source  of  grave  harm. — John 
Spencer,  President,  Michigan  State  Chapter,  526 
Sunset  Lane,  East  Lansing,  Mich. 


From  Founder  3McCaul 

I  want  to  express  this  word  of  gratitude  to  all 
brothers  and  chapters  for  their  Christmas  and 
New  Year  greetings. 

May  God  bless  them  all  and  our  beloved  Fra- 
ternity. 

THE   HALLS  OF  THE   HEART 

The  sweet  scented  meadows,  the  blue-tinted  sky. 
They  do  not  desert  us  when  Summer  goes  by; 
For  all  thru  the  Winter;  tho'  Summer  depart, 
Their  pictures  are  hung  in  the  "Halls  of  the  Heart." 

The  darker  the  day,  the  sadder  the  mood. 

The  brighter  the  mem'ries  of  mountain  and  wood: 

And  worried  in  mill  and  wearied  in  mart. 

We  turn  in  relief  to  the  "Halls  of  the  Heart." 

The  sweet  loving  smile  and  the  bright  beaming  eye — 
These  stay  with  us  still;  tho'  our  darlings  may  die; 
For  love  and  remembrance  with  magical  art. 
Still  picture  them  forth  in  the  "Halls  of  the  Heart." 

Then  face  we  the  future,  how'er  it  may  frown; 
Tho'  sorrows,  like  snows  of  the  Winter,  come  down; 
The  joys  of  the  past  of  our  lives  are  a  part; 
We  keep  them  for  aye  in  the  "Halls  of  the  Heart." 

— Thomas   Vaden    McCaul,    Founder 
Gainesville,  Fla.

1967  All-Si^  Ep  Football  Team 


By   ALLAN    FERGUSON 

DELAWARE 


THE  1967  edition  of  the  Sig  Ep  Football 
All-America  is  an  outstanding  team  featur- 
ing five  players  who  have  been  listed  as  hon- 
orable mentions  in  the  Associated  Press  All- 
America  selections.  The  team  members  are 
well-rounded  individuals  who  have  done  well 


on  the  academic  gridiron  and  are  active  as 
brothers  in  Sigma  Phi  Epsilon.  Two  members 
of  the  1966  All-Sig  Ep  team  have  been  se- 
lected on  the  1967  team;  while  one  school, 
North  Texas  State,  has  placed  two  athletes  on 
this  year's  all-star  team.

The  NCAA  awarded  33  outstanding  senior 
football  players  $1,000  graduate  scholarships 
this  December  with  two  Sig  Ep  scholar-ath- 
letes being  chosen.  They  are  center  Paul 
Draper  of  North  Texas  State  and  Ben  Mor- 
tensen,  an  offensive  guard  on  the  University 
of  Pennsylvania's  team.  Draper,  a  member  of 
the  Missouri  Valley  Conference  all-academic 
team,  maintained  a  3.21  in  mathematics; 
while  Ben  Mortensen  maintained  a  3.6  as  a 
chemical  engineer  at  Penn. 

Selections  for  this  1967  team  were  based  on 
the  individual's  performance  and  the  accom- 
plishments of  the  team.  Initial  reports  in  the 
fall  indicated  that  a  good  many  more  Sig  Ep 
stars  existed  than  were  reported  by  the  chap- 
ter correspondents.  If  entries  had  been  re- 
ceived for  these  players,  it  would  have  been 
possible  to  select  both  an  offensive  and  defen- 
sive team.  It  is  hoped,  however,  that  more 
chapters  will  participate  in  the  1968  All- 
America  selection. 

The  ends  this  year  are  Gary  Arthur,  an 
All-America  (AP)  honorable  mention  at 
Miami  of  Ohio  and  Pete  Sokalsky,  a  tough 
defensive  end  and  All-Atlantic  Coast  pick  of 
North  Carolina  State's  (9-2)  Liberty  Bowl 
champions. 

Arthur  picked  off  14  passes  and  145  yards 
for  the  Redskins  as  this  strong  sophomore,  a 
Mid-American  Conference  all-star,  gained  rec- 
ognition as  a  hard-hitting  tight  end.  Coach  Bo 
Schembeckler  feels  Gary  has  the  most  poten- 
tial of  any  Miami  end  in  the  past  five  seasons. 
Nicknamed  the  "Brute,"  Gary  is  considered 
the  best  blocker  on  the  team.  A  paper  tech- 
nology major  from  Dayton,  Ohio,  he  should 


give  Miami's  opposition  something  to  worry 
about  for  the  next  two  seasons. 

The  Liberty  Bowl  champion  Wolfpack  team 
considered  defensive  end  Pete  Sokalsky  a 
prime  force  in  their  highly  successful  season. 
Sokalsky  was  all  ACC  as  a  sophomore  but 
missed  the  entire  junior  year  due  to  a  knee 
injury.  Starting  out  slowly  this  year,  Sokalsky 
then  set  up  a  touchdown  on  a  key  fumble  re- 
covery against  Buffalo  and  against  bowl- 
bound  Florida  State.  Pete  made  several  im- 
portant tackles  and  also  deflected  a  pass  in 
the  20-10  win  over  Florida  State.  Sokalsky  is 
a  mathematics-education  major  from  Allen- 
town,  Pa. 

Moving  over  to  the  tackle  slots,  we  find 
Paul  Bunyan-like  Doug  Crusan.  A  235-lb.  so- 
ciology major,  who  spends  his  Saturdays  as 
an  All-Big  Ten,  All-America  (AP)  tackle  for 
Indiana's  Fighting  Hoosiers.  Captain  of  this 
surprising  Indiana  team  which  won  the  Big 
Ten  Championship  and  the  right  to  play  USC 
in  the  Rose  Bowl,  Doug  was  a  1966  Sig  Ep 
All-America  and  a  member  of  AP  and  UPI's 
All-Big  Ten  teams.  Rounding  out  his  extra- 
curricular activities,  Crusan  is  a  member  of 
the  Senior  Class  Council  and  enjoys  his  posi- 
tion as  Santa  Claus  at  the  Indiana  Sig  Eps' 
annual  Christmas  party  for  underprivileged 
children.  A  participant  in  the  Senior  Bowl 
game  in  January,  Crusan  hopes  to  continue 
playing  football  as  a  professional  next  fall. 
At  the  other  tackle  spot  is  Greg  Shelley,  also 
an  honorable  mention  on  the  AP  All-America. 
Greg  was  an  offensive  guard  for  the  Univer- 
sity of  Virginia  Cavaliers  and  a  member  of 
the   Atlantic   Coast   Conference's  AU-Confer-

nucleus  for  Virginia's  oflFensive  line  next  fall. 

Ben  Mortensen,  a  well-rounded  Sig  Ep 
from  Penn,  fills  one  of  the  guard  spots.  An 
All-Ivy  selection  and  winner  of  the  NCAA 
graduate  scholarship,  Mortensen  is  also  a 
member  of  Sphinx  Senior  Honor  Society  and 
Tau  Beta  Pi,  an  engineering  honor  society. 
Mortensen  was  considered  by  the  coaches  as 
the  team's  best  blocker  and  an  excellent  tech- 
nical player. 

Omaha  University,  (7-3)  CIC  Conference 
champions,  had  an  all-conference  guard  in 
junior  Dan  Klepper,  Co-captain  of  next  year's 
Indian  team,  Klepper  was  said,  by  the 
coaches,  to  be  big,  fast  and  durable  enough  to 
play  any  position  in  college  football.  Dan  was 
also  selected  to  the  NAIA  All-District  II 
team. 

Missouri  Valley  Conference  champions, 
North  Texas  State,  have  two  all-stars  in  cen- 
ter Paul  Draper  and  fullback  Mike  Shoat. 
Draper,  like  Crusan,  repeats  another  year  as 
a  Sig  Ep  All-America.  He  has  garnered  a 
long  list  of  honors  including  All-Conference 
and  honorable  mention  All-America  (AP) 
listings.  A  scholastic  standout  with  a  3.2/4.0 
average  in  mathematics.  Draper  was  also  cho- 
sen to  the  Scholastic  All-America  and  Mis- 
souri Valley  Conference  Scholastic  teams. 
Paul  is  an  outstanding  Sig  Ep  who  has  been 
listed  in  Who's  Who  in  American  Colleges 
and  Universities  for  his  collegiate  achieve- 
ments. In  addition  to  his  fraternity  activities, 
Paul  is  active  as  a  member  of  the  Fellowship 
of  Christian  Athletes. 

Playing  behind  Paul  is  this  year's  fullback 


Mike  Shoat,  a  205-lb.  junior  also  from  North 
Texas  State.  Shoat,  a  defensive  specialist, 
earned  all-conference  honors  as  he  placed 
fifth  in  the  nation  in  interceptions  with  a  total 
of  seven  on  the  season. 

The  University  of  Missouri  at  Rolla  has  an 
outstanding  ball  player  in  Larry  Oliver,  an 
all-conference  selection.  Oliver,  a  junior  in 
the  school  of  engineering,  had  33  pass  recep- 
tions for  469  yards  while  returning  19  punts 
for  a  total  of  177  yards.  Oliver  set  a  school 
record  for  single  game  receptions,  picking  off 
11  against  Missouri  Valley, 

In  the  opposite  halfback  slot,  we  have  Cen- 
tral Michigan  University's  Craig  Tefft,  a 
bruising  sophomore  runner  who  finished  the 
season  with  a  total  of  1040  yards.  Selected  to 
the  all-conference  team,  Craig  also  received 
24  passes  and  scored  72  points  as  he  was  se- 
lected by  his  teammates  as  the  team's  most 
valuable  player. 

Signal-calling  for  the  "Fighting  Scots"  of 
Monmouth  College  was  junior  Alan  Hatfield, 
a  versatile  athlete  who  played  both  ways.  Hat- 
field intercepted  ten  passes  while  playing  as 
the  deep  back  for  the  Scots  and  was  selected 
to  the  Mideast  Conference  All-Star  team.  A 
6'3"  190-lb.  junior,  he  led  the  Scots  in  total 
offense  last  season.  Exemplifying  the  versatile 
Sig  Ep,  Hatfield  is  an  outstanding  student 
who  currently  ranks  second  in  the  school  of 
chemistry  which  is  his  major  field  of  study. 

All  of  the  members  of  this  year's  All-Sig 
Ep  team  have  performed  with  distinction  on 
the  football  field  and  have  also  been  outstand- 
ing students  as  they  typify  the  pursuit  of  ex- 
cellence of  Sigma  Phi  Epsilon. 


Ohio  Xi  president  Wayne  Shere  receives  charter 
from  former  Grand  President  Harry  D.  Kurtz. 


Ohio  Welcomes 
Sig  Ep  Heart 

Thirty  qualified  colonists 
on  the  campus  at  Athens  are 
initiated  on  November  18  as 
charter  members  of  Ohio  Xi 

By   WILLIAM   KRIDER 

Galbreath   Chapel   is   place   of  worship   for  all. 


THE  BIG  HEART,  in  the  name  of  Sigma  Phi 
Epsilon,  arrived  at  Ohio  University,  Ath- 
ens, Ohio,  November  18.  On  this  date,  30  an- 
xious men  became  charter  members  of  Ohio 
Xi  Chapter,  one  year  and  four  days  from  the 
date  a  group  of  20  men  at  Ohio  University 
became  Sigma  Epsilon  Colony. 

Weekend  activities  began  with  the  arrival 
of  Bob  Lynch,  staff  representative,  and  Rio 
Myers.  Bob  greeted  the  colony  actives  with 
the  news  that  the  pledge  test  would  be  held 
Friday  night.  Ric  was  Sigma  Epsilon  Colony's 
"founding  father,"  as  he  was  most  instrumen- 
tal in  solving  the  many  problems  of  a  young 
colony  in  November  and  December,  1966. 

Initiation  teams  from  Ohio  Northern,  Uni- 
versity of  Cincinnati,  and  Marshall  University 
arrived  Saturday  morning.  The  following  men 
were  initiated:  Wayne  Shere,  Cleveland 
Heights;  Richard  Pazder,  Lorain;  Charles 
Herzer,  Lorain;  William  Krider,  Lawrence- 
burg,  Ind.;  Jonathan  Miller,  Cuyahoga 
Falls;  Arthur  Wesp,  Alexandria,  Va. ;  Jeffrey 
Barton,  Germantown;  John  Beabout,  Canton; 
Roger  Chapman,  Cleveland  Heights;  William 
O'Neill,  Cleveland  Heights;  Peter  Loomis, 
Columbus;  Michael  Bannon,  Youngstov^m; 
Dennis  Eyestone,  Sycamore;  Michael  Oxner, 
Dayton;  Robert  Scott,  Middletown;  Gregory 
Justice,  Ironton;  Jim  Kincaid,  Dayton;  Jay 
Lytle,  Middlefield;  Stephen  Ferrell,  Green- 
wich; Robert  Wuerdeman,  Cincinnati;  Ed- 
ward Molnar,  Lorain;  Robert  lozzia,  Hacken- 
sack,  N.J.;  Paul  Augusten,  Birmingham, 
Mich.;  Grant  Hesser,  Cincinnati;  Douglas 
Bond,  Dayton;  Jerald  Brenner,  Akron;  T. 
Gene  Lockard,  Columbus;  Michael  Bowers, 
Dayton;  James  Goodman,  Akron;  Henry  Me- 
rola,  Waltham,  Mass. 

After  the  initiations,  the  ritual  was  ex- 
plained and  final  plans  were  made  for  the  in- 
stallation banquet,  held  early  Saturday  eve- 
ning at  the  Sportsman,  not  far  from  the  Ohio 
University  campus. 

Distinguished  guests  at  the  banquet  in- 
cluded the  presidents  of  all  fraternities  and 
sororities  on  the  Ohio  campus,  Brothers 
Lynch,  Myers,  District  Governor  John  Hart- 
man,  and  Sig  Ep  Public  Relations  Director 
Harry  D.  Kurtz.  Also  attending  were  Dean  of 
Fraternities  Fuller  and  three  members  of  the 
Alumni     Housing     Corporation,     Clyde     D.

Other  members  of  the  corporation  are  Robert 
Sympson,  Alfred  Carpenter,  Leonard  Rand,

Wayne  Shere  was  master  of  ceremonies.  He 
said  that  the  past  year  as  a  colony  was  but 
the  "introduction  to  a  book,"  and  that  we  are 
now  ready  to  "start  the  first  chapter."  Dean 
Fuller  stated  that  at  installation  we  had  not 
reached  "a  culmination  of  effort,  but  simply  a 
door  opening  to  greater  things,"  and  added, 
"Success  is  a  journey,  not  a  destination."  Bob 
Lynch's  statement  was  intended  for  the  recent 
initiates  when  he  quoted  an  obscure  Chinese 
philosopher's  saying,  "He  who  accounts  all 
things  easy  will  encounter  many  difficulties."

Herzer,  controller. 


He  also  said  that  "the  horses  were  here  to 
pull  the  wagon,"  and  that  "the  future  is 
created  by  the  present."  Lynch  introduced  the 
guest  speaker,  Brother  Kurtz,  who  revealed 
that  Sigma  Phi  Epsilon  had  contacts  at  Ohio 
University  25  years  ago,  but  were  not  satis- 
fied. He  felt  the  25-year  wait  was  worth  the 
final  product,  Ohio  Xi. 

With  the  installation  of  Ohio  Xi,  the 
twelfth  chapter  in  Ohio,  Sigma  Phi  Epsilon 
numbers  168  chapters.  After  he  gave  a  short 
history  of  the  colony.  Brother  Kurtz  presented 
the  charter  to  President  Wayne  Shere. 

OflScers  were  installed  by  Brother  Lynch, 
final  words  of  advice  were  expressed,  and  the 
banquet  was  ended  with  benediction  by  Ric 
Myers.  A  formal  dance  followed  the  ban- 
quet. 

The  Campus 

Ohio  University  has  a  rich  heritage.  Es- 
tablished in  1804,  it  was  the  first  institution 
of  higher  learning  in  the  Northwest  Territory, 
and  has  grown  with  the  United  States  and  the 

Beasley  Convocation  Center  is  scheduled 
for  completion  sometime  during  the  year. 


State  of  Ohio  into  a  well-known  and  highly- 
respected  institution  of  higher  education. 
Ohio  University  students  have  participated  in 
seven  wars  and  countless  humanitarian  ef- 
forts. Ohio  U.  is  currently  involved  with  the 
establishment  of  educational  programs  in 
such  countries  as  Nigeria  and  South  Vietnam. 
Sprawled  upon  the  hills  of  Appalachia,  Ohio 
University  has  been  actively  participating 
with  other  universities  in  a  cooperative  effort 
to  rid  the  area  of  its  poverty  and  the  resultant 
ills  of  poverty. 

Ohio  University,  located  in  southeastern 
Ohio,  enrolls  15,000  students  at  the  Athens 
campus.  Five  campuses  in  other  communities 
are  included  in  the  Ohio  University  "family." 
Construction  of  a  library  and  a  coliseum-type 
sports-convocation  complex  highlight  the  cur- 
rent expansion  effort.  Beta  Theta  Pi  was  the 
pioneer  fraternity  in  1841. 

Nineteen  national  fraternities  and  13  soror- 
ities are  at  home  on  the  Ohio  campus.  Frater- 
nities include  Acacia,  Beta  Theta  Pi,  Delta 
Tau  Delta,  Delta  Upsilon,  Lambda  Chi 
Alpha,  Phi  Delta  Theta,  Phi  Epsilon  Pi,  Phi 
Gamma  Delta,  Phi  Kappa  Sigma,  Phi  Kappa 
Tau,  Phi  Kappa  Theta,  Phi  Sigma  Delta,  Pi 
Kappa  Alpha,  Sigma  Alpha  Epsilon,  Sigma 
Chi,  Sigma  Nu,  Tau  Kappa  Epsilon,  and 
Theta  Chi.  Sororities  are  Alpha  Delta  Pi, 
Alpha  Epsilon  Phi,  Alpha  Gamma  Delta, 
Alpha  Kappa  Alpha,  Alpha  Xi  Deha,  Chi 
Omega,  Delta  Sigma  Theta,  Kappa  Delta,  Phi 
Mu,  Pi  Beta  Phi,  Sigma  Kappa,  Theta  Phi 
Alpha,  Zeta  Tau  Alpha. 

Fraternities  and  sororities  are  in  the  pro- 

12 


cess  of  re-evaluating  their  position  within  the 
university  system,  and  are  changing  with  the 
dynamic  trends  in  learning  to  become  more 
and  more  necessary  to  the  college  student  in 
search  of  ideals. 

The  Colony 

After  consideration  of  the  fraternity  system 
at  Ohio  University,  Wayne  Shere  decided  a 
more  mature  type  of  fraternity  was  needed. 
Review  of  the  goals  and  objectives  of  Sigma 
Phi  Epsilon  revealed  it  as  the  fraternity  most 
likely  to  meet  his  wants. 

With  much  correspondence  and  contacts 
within  the  University,  Wayne  and  the  Grand 
Chapter  arranged  a  rush  to  form  a  colony  nu- 
cleus. During  the  weekend  of  September 
17-18,  1966,  National  representatives  and  men 
from  Miami  University,  Marshall,  University 
of  Cincinnati,  and  Ohio  State  joined  forces  to 
choose  the  18  members  for  the  nucleus.  For- 
mal colonization  was  held  November  14,  1966. 

With  constant  interest  and  guidance  from 
the  alumni,  the  potential  chapter  took  form. 
During  the  first  semester,  the  colony  met  in 
rooms  provided  by  the  University,  partici- 
pated in  many  activities,  including  intramu- 
rals,  weekly  dinners,  community  service  proj- 
ects. Through  the  efforts  of  local  alumni  a 
house  was  leased  from  another  fraternity  for 
the  second  semester,  providing  rooms  for  13 
men,  as  well  as  a  meeting  place  for  colony  ac- 
tive and  pledge  meetings.

Ohio  Sig  Ep  house  holds  24  brothers. 


Sigma  Epsilon  Colony  brought  its  member- 
ship up  to  about  40  men  during  the  second 
semester  and  likewise  increased  its  activities. 
A  Glee  Club  was  formed,  intramural  teams 
increased  their  power,  and  social  activities  be- 
came more  frequent.  The  first  Sweetheart 
Formal  was  held  in  the  spring.  Near  the  end 
of  the  semester  negotiations  were  begun  for 
the  purchase  of  a  house  at  34  N.  Congress 
Street,  the  permanent  residence  of  Sigma  Phi 
Epsilon  at  Ohio  University.  The  house  is 
home  for  24  men,  and  has  much  potential  for 
expansion  of  facilities. 

The  men  of  Ohio  Xi  will  strive  to  further 
the  goals  of  Sigma  Phi  Epsilon  in  their  quest 
to  make  it  the  fraternity  at  Ohio  University. 
They  will  reach  this  goal  under  the  guidance 
of  the  words  of  Dr.  U.  G.  Dubach,  "We  can- 
not be  common ;  we  must  be  different," 


Cutler  Hall  is  the  oldest  school  building  in  use  west  of  the  Appalachian  Mountains. 


Good  Scholarship— 

A  young  man  of  achievement  first 
must  be  motivated — he  must  organize 
himself,  work  hard,  and  Uve  clean 


ANY  boy  of  average  intelligence  can  do  col- 
lege work  if  he  observes  certain  funda- 
mental principles.  They  are  simple  but  vital 
to  success.  They  must  be  observed  every  day. 
They  are  as  follows : 

1.  Motivation.  Every  boy  must  make  up  his 
mind  that  college  work  comes  first  and  that 
he  will  give  his  all  to  the  job  in  hand.  No  one 
can  do  this  for  him.  A  Fraternity  can  be  of 
help  to  him.  It  may  even  be  a  hindrance  to 
him  by  requiring  him  to  give  time  to  activities 
or  other  outside  work.  This  is  where  the  re- 
sponsibility comes  in.  Will  the  Fraternity 
make  clear  to  the  pledge  that  the  responsibil- 
ity is  primarily  his  and  will  the  Fraternity 
help  him  in  his  determination  to  succeed?  To 
repeat — every  boy  must  make  up  his  mind  to 
give  his  all  to  his  college  work  and  then  fol- 
low through. 

2.  Match  his  college  course  to  his  natural 
abilities.  Many  boys  fail  in  college  because 
they  attempt  the  wrong  course  of  study.  One 
needs  to  fit  his  course  to  his  natural  abilities 
and  likes.  A  boy  can  review  his  experience  in 
high  school  and  answer  the  question.  He 
should,  of  course,  consult  with  the  high 
school  faculty  about  the  matter  of  his  choice 
of  college  work.  The  requirement  for  any 
course  can  be  ascertained.  For  example — no 
boy  should  try  engineering  unless  he  is  an 
able  student  of  mathematics  and  science.  The 
natural  requirement  for  all  college  courses 
can  be  learned  by  consulting  the  faculty.  In 
my  own  experience  as  Dean  of  Men,  I  con- 
ferred with  many  students  about  this  prob- 
lem. One  day  I  called  a  student  (Freshman) 

14 


who  was  failing  in  Engineering.  After  some 
preliminary  questions,  I  asked  him  why  he 
had  chosen  Engineering — had  he  fixed  a  door 
bell  or  the  battery  on  a  Ford?  His  answer — 
"I  fixed  the  battery  on  a  Ford."  Coming  from 
a  dairy  district,  I  asked  him  whether  he  had 
milked  a  cow.  He  answered  almost  angrily,  "I 
came  to  college  to  get  away  from  cows."  He 
had  no  knowledge  about  various  outlets  in  the 
dairy  business  except  milking  cows!  I  told 
him  about  dairy  manufacture  and  fixed  him  a 
course  in  that  field.  He  proved  to  be  a  good 
student  as  soon  as  he  was  in  the  right  field 
and  finished  his  college  course  so  well  that 
the  department  kept  him  as  a  graduate  assis- 
tant. Had  he  continued  in  Engineering,  he 
would  have  been  a  failure.  The  same  experi- 
ence could  be  given  for  other  fields  of  study. 
This  case  merely  illustrates  a  common  experi- 
ence. 

3.  Reading  and  taking  notes.  A  boy  must 
realize  that  in  college  there  are  certain  musts 
if  he  is  to  succeed.  More  boys  fail  in  college 
because  of  the  inability  to  read  except  unwill- 
ingness to  work.  The  ability  to  read  like  other 
abilities  requires  practice.  No  one  would  say 
a  boy  could  be  a  success  in  athletics  without 
endless  hours  of  practice.  The  same  rule  ap- 
plies to  reading.  Many  colleges  provide 
courses  in  remedial  reading.  Every  boy  who 
lacks  reading  ability  should  take  such  a 
course.  Practice  will  help  him  a  lot. 

Good  note  taking  is  another  must  in  col- 
lege. When  performing  a  lesson — reading — 
one  should  make  brief  notes  even  if  he  de- 
stroys them  after  the  preparation  of  a  lesson. 
Of  course,  no  student  should  go  to  class,  reci-

tation  or  lecture,  without  a  notebook.  The  stu- 
dent should  review  the  notes  during  the  study 
period.  He  might  then  add  to  them  while  the 
lecture  or  lesson  is  fresh  in  his  mind.  If  he 
waits  until  examination  to  review  the  notes, 
they  may  be  meaningless  to  him.  Success  or 
failure  may  depend  on  note-taking. 

4.  Make  time  budgets.  If  a  boy  is  smart  he 
will  budget  his  time  instead  of  pursuing  a 
hit-and-miss  study  program.  In  helping  count- 
less boys  make  time  budgets,  I  always  started 
with  8  hours  of  sleep  at  night,  not  in  classes. 
Then  we  gave  3  hours  to  eat  and  3  to  play. 
That  leaves  10  hours  for  work — classes  and 
study.  In  his  budget,  a  boy  should  put  in  2 
hours  of  study  for  each  class.  Some  lessons 
may  require  more,  some  less.  These  adjust- 
ments can  be  made  very  readily.  A  part  of 
the  weekends  must  be  used  for  study.  Every 
student  must  choose  the  time  and  follow- 
through.  If  such  a  plan  is  followed  any  boy 
would  find  time  for  everything  that  needs  to 
be  done  in  college.  The  experience  will  be 
valuable  in  his  life's  work  after  graduation. 

5.  Work  hard — live  clean.  There  is  no  sub- 
stitute for  work.  A  great  industrialist  put  it 
this  way,  "Any  man  who  does  not  do  all  his 
job  requires,  is  dishonest.  Any  man  who  does 
not  do  more  than  his  job  requires,  is  not 
wise."  The  same  rule  applies  to  college  work. 
You  will  remember  this  paper  began  with 
Motivation.  It  ends  with  the  result  of  Motiva- 
tion. Work  as  though  every  thing  depended 
on  you,  and  it  does  just  that.  Live  clean,  live 
and  work  hard,  and  no  one  can  keep  you 
from  success.  This  is  the  pay-off  of  college. 


Tribute  to  Dr.  Dubach 

From  remarks  by  former  Grand  President  H. 
Bob  Robinson  at  presentation  of  oil  portrait  of 
Dr.  Dubach  at  the  Cleveland  Conclave 

DR.  U.  G.  DUBACH  has  given  much  of  his  time 
and  himself  to  our  fraternity.  He  so  much  looked 
forward  to  being  here  because^ — ^being  in  his  87th 
year — he  felt  this  would  be  his  last. 

As  Doc  would  say  if  he  were  here — "I'm  sorry 
I  can't  be  there  to  tell  the  boys  where  to  stack 
their  hay." 

His  educational  background  is  noteworthy: 
Graduate  Kansas  Teacher's  College;  A.B.  degree, 
Indiana  University;  M.A.  degree,  Harvard  Univer- 
sity; Ph.D.  degree,  Wisconsin  University;  LLD 
degree,  Willamette  University;  L.H.S.  degree, 
Lewis  and  Clark  College. 

Upon  completion  of  his  Ph.D.  from  Wisconsin 
in  1913,  he  accepted  a  position  way  out  west  in 
Corvallis,  Ore.,  in  what  is  now  Oregon  State  Uni- 
versity. He  said  at  that  time,  all  he  had  was  a 
new  wife  and  a  large  college  debt.  He  told  him- 
self when  he  had  paid  off  this  college  debt,  he 
would  return  to  the  United  States. 

However,  fate  decreed  he  should  stay,  and  he 
was  34  years  Professor  of  Political  Science  and  23 
years  Dean  of  Men,  where  he  became  an  integral 
part  of  the  University  and  the  state  of  Oregon, 

In  1947,  age  made  it  mandatory  for  him  to  re- 
tire, but,  as  he  said,  "there  was  too  much  life  in 
the  old  horse  and  he  refused  to  be  put  out  to  pas- 
ture" ...  so  from  1947  to  1960,  he  was  Professor 
of  Political  Science  at  Lewis  and  Clark  College  in 
Portland. 

In  addition  to  his  educational  work,  he  was 
challenged  by  many  other  areas  of  activity — 
Church,  YMCA,  Masonic  lodge,  and  Politics;  but 
his  greatest  love  was  Sigma  Phi  Epsilon.  When  he 
said  "my  fraternity"  his  whole  face  lighted  and  he 
never  tired  of  giving  his  all  to  make  our  frater- 
nity outstanding. 

Oregon  Alpha  Chapter  at  OSU  in  Corvallis 
owes  its  enviable  record  as  one  of  the  outstanding 
fraternity  chapters  in  the  nation  to  Doc.  It  was  he 
who  got  this  chapter  under  way  and  he  has  been 
its  guide  and  mentor  all  through  the  years. 

In  our  national  PVaternity,  Brother  Dubach  has 
held  many  offices.  For  the  past  20  years,  he  was 
national  scholarship  director,  and  for  the  past  six 
years,  a  member  of  the  National  Board  of  Direc- 
tors. 

During  his  years  as  Scholarship  Director, 
Sigma  Phi  Epsilon  made  its  greatest  strides  in 
scholarship.  He  often  said,  "Scholarship  is  a  mat- 
ter of  character.  If  you  have  the  desire  and  the 
will  to  do — you  can  reach  your  goal."  He  also 
said,  "You  may  find  it  necessary  to  compromise  on 
details  and  methods,  but  never  on  principles."

HE  amount  of  self-fulfillment  that  an  indi- 
vidual derives  cannot  compare  with  the 
pride  and  satisfaction  that  a  brotherhood  re- 
ceives by  contributing  to  a  worthwhile  cause. 
With  this  idea  in  mind,  the  brothers  of  Indi- 
ana Tech  at  Fort  Wayne  organized  their  sec- 
ond 80-mile  Olympic  style  relay  run  on  Octo- 
ber 28  in  order  to  raise  funds  for  the  United 
States  Olympic  Teams. 

The  format  of  the  brothers'  1963  run  was 
used  as  a  basis  in  planning  this  latest  run. 
Contacted  was  J.  Lynam  Bingham,  fund-rais- 
ing chairman  at  the  Olympic  House  in  New 
York.  It  was  interesting  to  note  that  Bingham 
is  a  Sig  Ep  from  the  Denver  chapter.  He  pro- 
vided the  brothers  with  posters,  collection 
boxes,  and  suggestions  for  staging  a  success- 
ful run. 

The  neighboring  communities  agreed  to  as- 
sist by  providing  police  escorts  through  the 
towns  as  well  as  full  radio  and  television  cov- 
erage of  both  practice  sessions  and  the  actual 
run.  The  Indiana  State  Highway  Department 
cooperated  by  letting  the  brothers  tie  up  80 
miles  of  highway  between  the  Indiana 
Gamma  chapter  at  Ball  State  and  their  home 
chapter  in  Fort  Wayne.  John  Yount,  chapter 
president  at  Ball  State,  started  the  run  at 
6:30  A.M.  by  running  the  first  two-mile  leg. 

16 


Collection  and  continuation  of  the  run  to  Fort 
Wayne  was  then  undertaken  by  20  brothers  of 
Indiana  Eta.  The  runners  passed  through  the 
towns  of  Muncie,  Hartford  City,  Montpelier, 
Bluffton,  Ossian,  and  finally  Fort  Wayne, 
going  from  door  to  door  along  the  main  route 
accepting  donations.  Passing  motorists 
stopped  along  the  roadsides  giving  their  con- 
tributions to  brothers  displaying  the  United 
States  Olympic  collection  box.  Pencils  com- 
memorating the  event  were  given  out  to  each 
contributor. 

The  torches  which  carried  a  constant  flame 
throughout  the  run  were  compliments  of  Dave 
Norr,  an  alumnus  of  Indiana  Eta.  He  also 
contributed  a  van  that  closely  followed  the 
runners  providing  them  with  assistance  as 
well  as  carrying  fuel  for  the  torches. 

As  the  runners  neared  their  destination 
they  realized  that  their  efforts  made  this  run 
even  more  successful  than  was  anticipated. 
Indiana  Eta  president  Dean  Gaudreau  ran  the 
final  leg  of  the  run  through  the  city  of  Fort 
Wayne  and  the  Indiana  Tech  campus  to  light 
a  symbolic  torch  on  the  Sig  Ep  lawn.  This 
brought  to  a  close  the  run  which  lasted  nine 
hours  and  forty-seven  minutes.  An  open  house 
was  held  at  which  time  additional  contribu- 
tions were  accepted.  A  check  amounting  to 
more  than  $300  was  sent  to  the  Olympic 
House  in  New  York  City.  The  largest  single 
contribution  was  given  by  A.  Walter  Hamil- 
ton, a  Sig  Ep  practicing  law  in  Bluffton,  Ind. 
As  news  of  the  upcoming  Olympics  reaches 
the  brothers  they  will  have  a  definite  feeling 
of  pride  and  satisfaction  in  helping  to  send 
our  country's  teams  to  the  Olympic  Games. 

Though  very  tired,  Dan  Berona  is  obviously 
determined  to  complete  the  two-mile  journey. 


Darryl  Gless: 
Rhodes  Scholar 

University  of  Nebraska  senior 
English  major  to  go  to  Oxford 


DARRYL  GLESS,  chapter  vice-president  at  Ne- 
braska, a  senior  English  major,  carrying 
a  grade-point  average  of  4.0  in  pre-law,  was 
named  a  Rhodes  Scholar  in  December.  He 
was  one  of  four  scholars  selected  from  12 
candidates  from  Nebraska  and  five  other  states 
to  study  for  a  two-year  term  at  Oxford  Uni- 
versity, England,  in  any  course  of  his  choos- 
ing. 

Gless  comes  from  Schuyler,  Neb.,  he  is  a 
Nebraska  Career  Scholar  and  was  awarded 
a  Regents'  Scholarship.  He  is  a  member  of 
Phi  Beta  Kappa  and  has  served  as  secretary 
of  the  IFC  and  on  the  Student  Senate.  He 
enjoys  weight-lifting  in  his  spare  time. 

Gless's  interviewers  found  him  to  have  "a 
balanced  soundness  of  character,  intellect,  ca- 
pacity for  leadership,  and  physical  vigor, 
coupled  with  some  clear  quality  of  distinc- 
tion"— as  the  terms  of  Cecil  Rhodes'  will  stip- 
ulate a  Scholar  must  have.

A  SEASON 

FOR 

BROTHERHOOD 


J.  Stephen  Hank,  Miami    (Ohio) 


M 


ANY  Students  today  are  becoming  in- 
creasingly confused  about  where  our 
technocratic  society  is  leading  us.  The  mean- 
ingful simplicity  of  our  grandfathers'  day  has 
been  replaced  by  the  bewildering  sterility  of 
our  own  age.  As  college  students  we  see  this 
trend  manifested  in  a  gradual  tilting  of  our 
scales  of  values.  In  the  classrooms,  expe- 
diency is  becoming  more  important  than  qual- 
ity, "getting  through"  the  text  supersedes  un- 
derstanding it,  order  and  precision  are  pre- 
ferred to  imagination.  Students  dissatisfied 
with  their  classes  are  seeking  direction  and 
identity  elsewhere  on  campus.  This  is  particu- 
larly significant  to  the  fraternity  system, 
which  has  something  to  offer  these  students. 
However,  it  is  vitally  important  that  fraternity 
men  make  known  the  assets  of  the  system. 
While  perhaps  our  founders'  conception  of 
brotherhood  has  necessarily  undergone  con- 
siderable change,  yet  fraternities  are  by  na- 
ture operating  against  the  sterility  of  a  non- 
personal  society  and  towards  better  under- 
standing among  people  through  firsthand  ex- 
perience. 

While  it  is  important  that  we  cherish  and 
respect  the  traditions  unique  to  our  own 
chapters,  it  is  equally  important  that  we 
broaden  the  scope  of  this  firsthand  contact 
with  people.  It  is  said  in  our  fraternity's  man- 
ual that  at  one  time  Sigma  Phi  Epsilon  had 

18 


to  decide  between  expanding  to  a  national  or- 
ganization or  dying  through  entropy.  Perhaps 
now  we  must  extend  the  principles  basic  to 
all  fraternities  or  the  whole  system  will  col- 
lapse. It  is  not  enough  that  we  open  our  doors 
in  rush  season;  we  must  be  associated  with 
people  and  groups  outside  our  own  house, 
and  this  includes  those  in  other  houses  as 
well  as  nonfraternity  men. 

There  are  many  ways  we  may  achieve  this 
contact.  By  taking  an  active  part  in  nonfrater- 
nity affairs  on  campus,  by  using  the  multiple 
voice  of  our  active  members  to  express  the 
objections  and  frustrations  common  to  all  stu- 
dents, we  improve  our  communication  with 
nonfraternity  men  and  help  to  dispel  the  "elit- 
ist myth"  with  respect  to  fraternities  that  has 
grown  up  on  many  campuses.  Through  coop- 
erative projects  with  other  houses  (such  as 
my  own  chapter's  recent  cooperative  theme 
party  with  the  Sigma  Alpha  Mu  chapter  on 
Miami's  campus)  fraternity  men  enlarge  the 
effectiveness  of  their  common  aims  and  dem- 
onstrate by  example  those  ideals  of  brother- 
hood and  understanding  which  are  so  often 
merely  talked  about. 

As  with  many  things  the  time  for  action  in 
any  particular  area  is  somewhat  seasonal.  For 
years  an  ideal  may  lie  cloistered  within  a  nec- 
essarily limited  organization  and  be  practi- 
cally ineffectual  in  the  society  at  large.  Then,

when  the  philosophical  flavor  of  society 
changes,  the  ideal  may  be  brought  to  fruition 
with  little  effort,  because  people  need  it. 

Perhaps  the  time  is  now  ripe  for  the  ideal 
of  brotherhood.  Perhaps  students  who  feel 
themselves  losing  contact  with  human  under- 
standing and  personable  relationships  now 
need  this  human  contact  as  never  before.  Per- 
haps the  unconcerned  learning  institutions  of 
today  are  creating  an  atmosphere  ripe  for  the 
culmination  of  the  dream  of  our  founders.

Return  to  Duke— 
and  Other  Progress 


THE  Duke  University  chapter  is  scheduled 
to  return  to  the  fold  in  April  or  May, 
while  recent  months  have  already  witnessed 
the  installation  of  two  new  chapters  and  two 
new  colonies. 

The  colony  at  Jacksonville  University  was 
installed  at  Florida  Theta  Chapter  on  Febru- 
ary 3,  1968,  as  No.  169.  Grand  President  J.  E. 
Zollinger  presented  the  charter  as  75  men 
were  initiated. 

The  colony  at  Chico  State  College  was  in- 
stalled as  California  Iota  Chapter  on  Febru- 
ary 10,  1968,  as  No.  170.  Grand  President 
Zollinger  again  officiated  as  51  members 
signed  the  charter. 

The  new  colonies  were  installed  earlier. 
Sigma  Epsilon  Colony  was  launched  at  Morris 
Harvey  College,  Charleston,  W.Va.,  on  Decem- 
ber 9,  with  National  Director  R.  Eric  Weise, 
District  Governor  George  A.  Brown,  III,  and 
Staff  Representative  Robert  C.  Lynch  par- 
ticipating. 

A  new  colony  was  launched  at  Georgia 
Southern  College,  Statesboro,  on  January  9. 
Staff  Representative  Richard  W.  Myers  was 
assisted  in  the  colonization  by  Howard  Bridges, 
Valdosta  State,  '67,  who  will  be  the  counselor 
and  pledge  educator. 

The  impetus  to  revive  the  Duke  chapter, 
which  existed  from  1909  to  1960,  was  imparted 
by  past  Grand  President  Bedford  W.  Black, 
District  Governor  Edward  L.  Cloyd,  and  Staff 
Representative  Richard  W.  Myers  when  they 
traveled  to  Durham,  N.C.,  on  January  12  and 
pledged  24  men. 

The  fraternity  system  has  existed  at  Duke 
since  1872  when  Alpha  Tau  Omega  came  there 
as  the  pioneer.  Today  the  campus  shelters 
19  NIC  fraternities  and  13  NPC  sororities. 
The  administration  requires  fraternities  and 
sororities  to  occupy  college  residence  units. 

The  North  Carolina  Gamma  roster  includes 
the  names  of  457  brothers.  One  of  its  most 
distinguished  members,  now  deceased,  was 
United  States  Senator  Willis  Smith.

THE  Monmouth  chapter,  winner  of  a  "best 
chapter"  award  at  the  Cleveland  Conclave, 
also  won  the  Benjamin  Hobson  Frayser 
Award  for  having  the  best  chapter  newspa- 
per. A  close  look  at  the  newspaper  and  at  the 
chapter  shows  this  was  not  a  coincidence. 

The  Monmouth  entry,  Straight  from  the 
Heart,  edited  by  Chet  June,  earned  its  place 
at  the  top  for  excellence  in  several  categories, 
including  typographic  design  and  make-up, 
newswriting,  photography,  and  thoroughness 
and  variety  of  coverage.  However,  the  pages 
of  the  May,  1967,  issue  were  so  well  fitted 
with  shining  example  features  that  the  paper 
appeared  to  radiate  a  special  light.  These 
shining  example  features  were  definitely  occa- 
sioned by  versatile  top-notch  performance  on 
the  part  of  all  brothers. 

The  lead  story  carried  this  banner  head: 
"all  pledges  make  grades  and  initiate."  It 
was  a  first  for  Monmouth  fraternities — the 
first  time  that  all  members  of  a  big  pledge 
class  made  their  grades.  It  is  a  fairly  consis- 
tent rule  that  pledges  who  make  their  grades 
academically  can  make  the  grade  in  other 
ways  as  well. 

The   front    page   of   the   Monmouth   paper 


also  displays  a  cut  of  the  new  chapter  house 
and  a  story,  "Sig  Eps  Direct  All  Campus 
Publications,"  with  a  clever  photo  of  the  four 
star  journalists  involved. 

Two  timely  editorials,  a  cartoon,  a  message 
from  President  Duncan  Wimpress  of  the  Col- 
lege, and  stories  about  the  housemother  and 
the  alumni  presentation  award  round  out 
page  2. 

The  remaining  pages  maintain  photo  and 
word  coverage  at  the  highest  level  of  individ- 
ual and  group  achievement.  Alumni  are  writ- 
ten about  as  though  they  are  still  closely  re- 
lated to  the  chapter,  which  indeed  they  are. 
This  is  an  asset  which  altogether  too  few 
chapters  own. 

The  Georgia  Alpha  Red  Door,  a  model 
newspaper  in  so  many  ways,  does  not  have 
the  extensive  alumni  relations  coverage  of  its 
chief  rivals,  though  it  is  good.  Winner  of  the 
Frayser  Award  for  two  consecutive  years — 
1964-65  and  1965-66 — this  newspaper  has 
kept  the  same  hot  pace  under  editor  Spike 
Rippberger  first  set  by  Chapter  president 
John  Kenneth  Smith  when  he  was  editor. 
Make-up,  newswriting,  headline  writing,  and 
selection  and  cropping  of  photos  are  meticu-

SPEaks  of  Stevens  Tech,  edited  by  Peter 
Schaub,  stands  impressively  at  the  top.  This 
newspaper  broadcasts  the  many  great  things 
this  chapter  has  been  doing. 

The  real  challenger  to  the  Monmouth  and 
Georgia  Tech  newspapers  for  the  top  spot 
may  well  be  SPiEL  of  Tennessee,  edited  by 
Tom  Gillem  and  Bill  Preston.  Its  pictorial 
feature,  "Livin'  the  Life  of  SPEs"  is  easily  a 
supreme  model  of  its  kind.  Other  outstanding 
papers  include  Cincy  SPEaks,  edited  by  Ron 
Wickert;  the  Colorado  State  SPEar,  edited  by 
Andy  Olson;  Zeta  Data  of  Ferris  State,  ed-

Maddalena. 

No  entries  were  received  for  The  Hoop  of

1917  and  the  oldest  chapter  newspaper  hav-

such  familiar  titles  of  other  years  as  Tiger 
Heart  of  Missouri,  The  Utalphan  of  Utah

Washington,  Gator  Heart  of  Florida,  Lambda 
SPEaks  of  Westminster,  The  Delalphan  of 
Delaware,  Braves  SPEakum  of  Bradley,  etc. 

Those  chapters  that  can  claim  unbroken 
publication  of  their  newspapers  are  aware 
that  uninterrupted  alumni  relations  are  a  nec- 
essary part  of  chapter  strength.  There  are 
chapters  that  know  they  do  not  have  strength 
and  it  is  tragic  when  they  have  too  little  initi- 
ative to  ask  their  alumni  to  help  them.

HEADQUARTERS  HEARTBEAT 


DONALD    M.    JOHNSON-EXECUTIVE    DIRECTOR 


Constitution  Amendment  The  amendment  to  the  Constitution,  Article  II,  Section  2, 
as  passed  by  the  30th  Grand  Chapter,  has  been  ratified  by  a  majority  of  the  chapters  of  the 
Fraternity. 

Article  II,  Section  2,  of  the  Constitution  now  reads:  "To  be  eligible  for  membership  in  the 
Fraternity,  a  man  shall  be  of  good  moral  character  and  not  a  member  of  another  National 
Interfraternity  Conference  fraternity." 

All  chapters  and  officers  will  receive  instructions  on  amendments  to  the  Book  of  Laws 
(1965  edition)  as  a  result  of  action  taken  by  the  30th  Grand  Chapter.  These  changes  to  the 
Book  of  Laws  will  be  issued  in  February. 

Staff  Change  Donald  L.  Tanner,  Memphis  State,  '67,  assumed  the  duties  of  Program 
Development  Director  for  Sigma  Phi  Epsilon,  effective  January  18.  Brother  Tanner  brings 
experience  as  staff  representative,  in  addition  to  an  outstanding  undergraduate  experience, 
to  this  newly  created  position. 

The  Program  Development  Director  will  provide  the  Fraternity  Headquarters  with  addi- 
tional depth  in  skill.  He  will  be  responsible  to  the  Executive  Director  for  evaluating  and 
revising  current  procedures  and  operations,  as  well  as  developing  and  implementing  new 
programs.  He  will  coordinate  his  efforts  through  the  Headquarters  staflF  members  to  provide 
them  an  opportunity  to  work  on  new  programs.  Initial  priorities  will  be  given  to  the  1968 
Academy,  chapter  housing  programs,  and  chapter  finances.  Future  programs  will  enhance 
all  areas  of  the  Fraternity's  operation  and  development. 

Lost  Members  In  response  to  the  Headquarters  campaign  to  find  all  "lost"  members, 
at  least  two  undergraduate  chapters  now  have  working  addresses  for  all  their  members, 
thus  earning  a  "100%"  accolade  for  their  achievement.  All  chapters  are  cooperating  with 
this  project's  vital  goal:  100%  working  addresses  for  all  members. 

You  can  help  by  sending  all  correct  addresses  of  lost  Sig  Eps  to:  Alumni  Services 
Director,  P.O.  Box  1901,  Richmond,  Virginia  23215. 

Help  IVanted  for  Areiiives  You  may  be  able  to  help  in  the  quest  for  items  of  his- 
torical value  to  the  Fraternity.  These  articles  will  be  displayed  in  the  archives  or  library  of 
Headquarters.  This  is  the  first  such  campaign,  because  previous  headquarters  facilities  did 
not  have  adequate  space  for  archives  display  or  storage.  (You  may  be  interested  to  know 
there  were  ten  Fraternity  offices  or  buildings  prior  to  the  newly  dedicated  Sigma  Phi  Epsilon 
Headquarters.) 

Should  you  have  any  of  the  following  items,  please  contact  the  Executive  Director,  P.O.

We  also  have  a  Founder's  badge,  given  to  us  by  Brother  W.  Hugh  Carter,  which  will  be 
displayed  with  other  mementos  and  records  of  the  Fraternity's  earliest  days.  We  will,  of 
course,  be  delighted  to  have  additional  such  items  which  you  might  have  or  to  learn  of  their 
whereabouts. 

Meetings  The  National  Board  of  Directors  held  its  third  meeting  of  the  year,  and  its 
first  in  the  new  Sigma  Phi  Epsilon  Headquarters,  November  4,  1967.  The  Saturday  meeting 
served  as  a  prelude  to  the  weekend  of  activities  surrounding  the  dedication  of  the  Head- 
quarters building.  The  Board  considered  and  took  action  on  many  matters:  expansion, 
colony  installations  proposed  for  this  academic  year;  appointment  of  officials,  and  creation 
of  the  new  position  of  Assistant  Grand  Treasurer  and  appointing  Langdon  Palmer,  Dart- 
mouth, to  that  post.  Brother  Palmer  is  vice-president  of  Chase  Manhattan  Bank;  his  appoint- 
ment will  provide  the  Board  with  additional  financial  skill. 

The  ad  hoc  Scholarship  Committee  met  in  Chicago  the  weekend  of  January  12-14.  Serving 
on  this  committee  are  George  Kaludis,  Donald  E.  Kindle,  Richard  E.  Pahre,  and  T.  Reginald 
Porter,  chairman;  Robert  H.  Ewalt  attended  the  meeting  as  a  consultant.  This  committee 
is  charged  with  evaluating  our  present  scholarship  program  and  revising  it  to  meet  the 
needs  for  achieving  academic  excellence  throughout  the  Fraternity. 

There  were  45  Sig  Eps  at  the  Fraternity  Luncheon  that  was  part  of  the  program  for  the 
National  Interfraternity  Conference  annual  meeting  at  the  Statler  Hilton  Hotel  in  New 
York  City,  November  30-December  2.  The  convention  was  sparked  by  the  many  Sig  Ep 
leaders  participating  in  the  program  and  working  toward  the  betterment  of  the  National 
Interfraternity  Conference  and  interfraternity  cooperation.  (A  report  of  the  Conference 
appears  on  pages  26-28.) 

Phillips  Foundation  Seholarsliips  The  Trustees  of  the  William  L.  Phillips  Founda- 
tion have  changed  the  date  for  submitting  scholarship  applications  to  March  1;  this  new  date 
will  allow  the  naming  of  scholarship  recipients  by  June  instead  of  October.  Applications 
and  their  supporting  documents  are  to  be  mailed  to  Headquarters.  The  Trustees  took  this 
action  at  their  meeting  in  Cleveland  prior  to  the  Grand  Chapter/ Academy,  when  they  also 
reviewed  plans  for  the  $1  million  fund-raising  drive  which  is  getting  under  way. 

Directory  Many  requests  are  received  yearly  by  Headquarters  for  the  "latest"  Sigma 
Phi  Epsilon  Directory.  The  latest  directory  of  members  was  published  in  1949  and  is  now 
out  of  print;  if  it  were  not  out  of  print,  it  would  be  out  of  date.  Over  half  of  the  present 
83,000  membership  has  been  initiated  since  that  directory  was  published. 

There  seems  to  be  considerable  interest  in  having  a  new  directory  published,  but  this 
would  require  a  generous  investment:  approximately  $35,000.  That  would  be  no  particular 
problem  if  enough  members  wanted  the  directory  and  were  willing  to  buy  the  book  at  a 
price  which  would  reimburse  the  Fraternity  for  the  expense. 

What's  your  opinion:  Would  you  be  interested  in  owning  a  current  Sigma  Phi  Epsilon 
directory?  If  so,  how  much  would  you  be  willing  to  pay  for  the  book  or,  to  put  it  another 
way,  how  much  do  you  think  the  directory  should  cost?  Please  send  your  suggestions  to  the 
Executive  Director. 

Heart  Fund  February  is  Heart  Fund  month  and  the  Heart  Association  is  counting  on 
your  help  in  supporting  the  work  of  the  Association.

THE   MEANING 
OF   BROTHERHOOD 


HOW    RELEVANT 
IS    THE    RITUAL? 

By  JACK  WHITFORD 

RHODE  ISLAND 

It  is  a  well-known  fact  that  the  social  and  ed- 
ucational context  within  which  the  fraternity 
exists  is  constantly  changing.  Students  com- 
ing to  colleges  and  universities — and  more- 
over to  Sigma  Phi  Epsilon — are  different 
today  not  only  by  virtue  of  their  very  num- 
bers as  a  group,  but  also  by  virtue  of  their 
quality  as  intelligent  and  informed  individu- 
als. In  such  a  time,  when  the  kind  of  prospec- 
tive pledges  and  brothers  (as  well  as  their 
number)  is  rapidly  changing,  it  seems  imper- 
ative that  we  periodically  re-examine  all 
phases  of  the  fraternity's  life  and  operation  in 
light  of  these  changes.  We  must  continually 


Jack  Whitford,  chapter  president  at  Rhode 
Island,  has  examined  the  use  of  the  Ritual. 


ask,  "Is  this   relevant   and  meaningful   right 
now?" 

One  basic  area  of  the  fraternity  most  often 
neglected  in  any  such  scrutiny^ — ^either 
through  over-awe  or  under-interest — is  the 
Ritual.  The  two  burning  questions  about  the 
Ritual  (or  ritual  in  general)  that  we  must 
ever  re-examine  for  new  generations  are  the 
"what"  and  the  "why"  of  ritual,  for  there  is 
altogether  too  much  of  both  disinterest  on  the 
one  hand  and  fanaticism  on  the  other  con- 
cerning the  Ritual,  oftentimes  arising  from 
childish  pre-conceptions  about  its  purpose 
and  meaning. 

First  of  all,  what  is  ritual ;  for  surely  if  we 
do  not  know  what  it  is  we  are  on  poor 
grounds  to  either  defend  or  reject  its  use  and 
validity  (if  any)  in  the  modern  fraternity. 
Webster  notes  ritual  to  be  "any  practice  done 
or  regularly  repeated  in  a  set  precise  manner 
so  as  to  satisfy  one's  sense  of  fitness  and  often 
felt  to  have  symbolic  significance."  This,  how- 
ever, like  so  many  academic  definitions,  is 
perhaps  quite  correct  but  essentially  dry  and 
uninteresting  for  it  gives  a  meaning  for  the 
word,  but  not  a  sense  or  feeling  for  the  actual 
thing  itself.  Beyond  that,  it  is  a  rather  sopho- 
moric  explanation  for  something  which  in 
Sigma  Phi  Epsilon  is  supposed  to  be  lived 
and  loved,  not  only  by  undergraduates  but 
by  all  brothers  of  all  ages  and  degrees  of  ma- 
turity. 

Clearly  then,  we  must  seek  for  a  more  rele- 
vant definition  for  the  world  of  1968.  William 
Barrett  in  his  study  of  existential  philosophy, 
Irrational  Man,  comes  much  closer  to  a  satis- 
factory definition  when  he  speaks  of  the  ele- 
ments of  ritual  as  being  something  powerfully 
real  and  meaningful  to  man:  capable  of  keep- 
ing "the  vital  circuit  open  between  reason  and 
emotion,  between  the  rational  and  the  non-ra- 


24 


tional  in  the  human  psyche."  What  does  this 
mean?  Essentially  I  think  the  message  is  that 
ritual  is  a  basic  and  essential  form  of  human 
communication — as  essential  as  speech  itself 
to  the  healthy  and  happy  growth  and  satisfac- 
tion of  the  human  soul. 

However  this  may  suffice  as  to  what  ritual 
is,  it  says  little  as  to  why  ritual  (especially 
The  Ritual)  is  necessary  or  even  desirable  for 
use  in  today's  fraternity.  After  all,  you  may 
say,  this  sort  of  esoteric  communication  may 
have  been  beneficial  in  the  Dark  Ages  or  even 
in  the  Dim  Ages  of  1901,  but  what,  if  any- 
thing, does  it  have  to  say  that  is  relevant 
today?  I  offer  the  following  general  points  for 
consideration. 

We  live  in  a  so-called  "scientific  society" — 
one  in  which  awe,  wonderment,  and  mystery 
have  been  replaced  by  fact,  or  in  more  cases 
than  not,  "pseudo-fact."  Symbolism  of  any 
kind  is  an  intermediary,  and  intermediaries  of 
any  kind  are  simply  not  in  vogue  this  year. 
Even  language  itself,  a  major  system  of  pure 
verbal  and  printed  symbols  is  giving  way  to 
electronic  savants  which  communicate  via 
base-2  mathematics.  This  is  indeed  advanced 
and  horrifyingly  efficient  in  our  mass-pro- 
duced society,  but  man — mass  man  or  any 
man  especially  the  fraternity  man,  is  not  a 
magnetic  tape.  He  does  not  live,  nor  think, 
nor  have  the  ground  of  his  being  in  base-2  no- 
tation. True,  the  ritual  of  romance  may  have 
been  taken  over  by  the  computer,  but  show 
me  a  man — especially  a  Sig  Ep — who  prefers, 
for  example,  to  express  his  love  and  affection 
via  punch-card  rather  than  by  kiss,  and  I'll 
show  you  a  madman.  Human  life  soars  to  the 
zenith  of  its  grandeur  through  its  moments  of 
most  profound  communication,  and  yet  with- 
out a  vehicle  of  communication  (which  is 
what  ritual  is,  there  is  no  communication 
and  human  life  degenerates  to  the  absurd. 

Ritual   Elements  Needed 

The  alienation  and  the  exhausted  mystique 
of  modem  man  in  large  measure  stems  from 
the  lack  of  meaningful  ritual — from  the  lack 
of  meaningful  vehicles  of  communication  to 
mark  to  the  satisfaction  of  the  human  soul 
the  various  momentous  changes  of  status  in 
each  individual  life.  The  sense  of  festival  and 
of  the   dramatic   have   been   so   emasculated 


On  Behalf  of  the  Heart 


FORMER  Staff  Representative  Dennis  W.  Mesen- 
himer  is  pictured  with  U.  S.  Congressman  from 
Connecticut's  second  district,  William  L.  St. 
Onge,  and  world  famous  cardiologist  Dr.  Paul 
Dudley  White  cutting  a  heart-shaped  cake  to  cele- 
brate the  20th  Anniversary  of  the  Heart  Fund. 

Denny,  now  executive  director  for  the  Heart 
Association  in  eastern  Connecticut,  arranged  for 
the  cake-cutting  publicity  which  is  to  be  used  na- 
tionally. He  also  had  Dr.  White  as  the  guest 
speaker  for  the  chapter's  annual  meeting;  it  was 
the  largest  attended  Heart  Association  meeting  in 
Connecticut's  history.  Dr.  White  is  a  founder  and 
former  president  of  the  American  Heart  Associa- 
tion, and  was  President  Eisenhower's  consulting 
physician  when  the  former  president  was  stricken 
by  his  heart  attack. 


from  our  ceremonies  of  graduation,  confirma- 
tion, marriage  and  what  have  you,  that  they 
have  deteriorated  largely  to  meaningless  mass 
routine.  We  are  literally  starved  for  need  of 
individualistic  and  meaningful  ritual  elements 
in  our  lives  and  the  absurdity  and  sterility  of 
our  predicament  becomes  ever  more  evident 
in  the  drab  production-line  quality  of  our 
daily  lives. 

And  yet  amidst  all  the  psychic  sterility 
which  we  mutely  allow  to  be  dumped  upon 
our  heads,  the  altar  of  Sigma  Phi  Epsilon 
stands,  like  a  fountain  in  the  wasteland.  That 
it  so  stands,  let  us  give  heartfelt  thanks;  to 
the  end  that  it  may  ever  so  stand,  let  us  bend 
every  energy  of  our  hearts.

THE   NIC   MEETS 
IN  NEW   YORK 

For  the  31st  time  since  its  founding  in  1909 
the  National  Interfraternity  Conference  met 
in  New  York  to  discuss  the  problems  and 
prospects  of  Fraternity  Row.  More  than  a 
thousand  undergraduate  delegates  of  campus 
IFCs,  graduate  representatives,  and  deans 
and  campus  advisers  to  fraternities  met  at  the 
Statler  Hilton  on  November  30-December  1. 

The  program  followed  the  same  theme  as 
the  1966  NIC  at  New  Orleans— "The  Chang- 
ing Educational  World — Making  the  Most  of 
Our  Opportunities." 

Although  the  program  still  called  for  two 
conferences — a  graduate  conference  primarily 
and  secondarily  an  undergraduate  conference 
— the  undergraduate  on  whose  shoulders  rests 
the  leadership  of  an  effective  campus  system 
was  being  moved  closer  to  the  front  and  cen- 
ter of  the  stage.  If  he  returned  to  the  campus 
with  a  sizable  fund  of  motivation,  not  to 
mention  new,  practical  knowledge,  then  some 
good  must  come  of  it. 


Dean  Fred  H.  Turner,  2  A  E,  University  of 
Illinois,  as  president  of  the  Conference,  pre- 
sided over  the  sessions.  Speakers  and  panel- 
ists supported  the  Conference  theme.  The 
opening  luncheon  and  annual  banquet  were 
highly  inspiring  events.  Entertainment  at  the 
banquet  was  provided  by  a  colorful  150-voice 
chorus  billed  as  "Up  With  People!" 

Emphasize  Real  Values 

John  Putman,  A  T  O,  in  his  banquet  ad- 
dress urged  specifically  that  fraternities  ought 
to  "teach  morals,  not  politics,"  and  the  same 
recommendation  was  offered  by  many  of  the 
other  speakers.  That  the  answer  to  most  of 
the  world's  problems  would  evolve  through 
such  a  course  was  suggested  by  the  well- 
known  newspaper  columnist,  Bob  Considine, 
who  had  just  returned  from  a  trip  to  Viet- 
nam. 

The  Rev.  Robert  Palmer,  A  T  O,  of  Lin- 
coln, Neb.,  in  his  address  returned  to  this 
idea  repeatedly.  He  said:  "We  have  entered 
into  an  era  where  instead  of  guidelines  by 
which  to  act,  the  individual  is  told  that  he  is 
a  mature  man  and  in  any  condition  he  finds 
himself   he   should    apply    the    principles   of 


26 


love."  As  responsible  leaders  in  our  free  soci- 
ety, Dr.  Palmer  advised  fraternity  leaders  to 
develop  within  themselves  a  system  "to  go  the 
right  way  and  do  the  right  thing." 

Dean  Stanton  Millet,  A  X  A,  of  the  Univer- 
sity of  Illinois  laid  down  the  same  challenge 
in  much  the  same  way,  when  he  said:  "Devel- 
opment of  character  is  one  of  the  most  impor- 
tant functions  of  an  educational  system."  He 
said  that  the  development  of  character  is  a 
personal  thing,  that  a  man  learns  by  doing, 
and  that  when  a  man  encounters  an  imper- 
sonal environment  over  which  he  has  no  influ- 
ence, he  is  faced  with  real  problems.  The 
help  of  fraternity  leaders  is  needed  to  meet 
these  problems. 

Robert  Lakamp,  IT  K  A,  said  that  nothing 
should  have  greater  importance  for  the  young 
executive  as  he  begins  his  career  in  business 
than  standards  of  conduct. 

Dr.  Frederick  Kerschner,  A  T  A,  a  profes- 
sor of  social  history,  is  inclined  to  appraise 
the  fraternity  system  in  the  inert  perspective 
of  social  history  and  is  unsure  of  the  role  of 
the  fraternity  in  a  future  that  has  yet  to  un- 
fold itself.  Obvious  faults  of  the  present  are 
that  fraternities  on  campus  do  not  do  enough 
to  communicate,  they  lack  self-knowledge, 
they  need  better  guidance  materials,  they 
need  a  more  full-fledged  cooperation  with  the 
college,  and  on  the  national  level  they  lack 
initiative  in  expanding  the  system  as  it  ought 
to  be  expanded. 

Everett  C.  Lindsey's  presentation  of  "Lead- 
ership Motivation"  was  a  dramatic  demonstra- 
tion. Members  of  the  audience  were  not 
merely  told  about  Leadership  Motivation;  the 
speaker  gave  them  an  experience  in  it.  Lind- 
sey,  a  personnel  development  executive  for 
Gulf  Oil  Company,  said:  "The  strongest  moti- 
vating factor  you  in  fraternities  have  is  your 
aim  in  life.  Fraternity  principles  are  char- 
acter-building principles." 

Richard  R.  Fletcher,  S  N,  warned  that  it  is 
difficult  to  turn  a  problem  into  an  asset  with- 
out hard,  purposeful  thinking.  "First,  identify 
the  problem  in  all  its  depth  and  dimensions. 
Second,  collect  the  resources  which  deal  with 
the  problem.  These  are  people,  and  not 
things.  Look  for  help  from  people  close  at 
hand.  Very  few  IFCs  begin  to  tap  the  re- 
sources close  at  hand." 


Awards 

The  Conference  Gold  Medal  for  distin- 
guished service  to  youth  was  awarded  to  two 
national  fraternity  leaders,  both  of  whom 
have  headed  their  groups:  Roland  Maxwell,  * 
K  T,  and  Scott  Turner,  ^  Y.  Both  men  are 
former  chairmen  of  the  NIC. 

The  Grand  Sweepstakes  Award,  better 
known  as  "The  Iron  Man,"  given  to  the  IFC 
judged  to  be  the  most  outstanding  for  service 
to  school,  community,  and  fraternity,  was  won 
by  the  University  of  Illinois.  Illinois  was  cited 
earlier  for  having  the  outstanding  IFC  in 
Class  III,  which  includes  colleges  and  univer- 
sities having  30  or  more  fraternities  on  cam- 
pus. Winner  in  the  Class  I  category,  1  to  15 
fraternities.  Southern  Mississippi.  In  Class  II, 
16  to  29  fraternities,  the  winner  was  Kansas 
State.  Runner-up  in  Class  I  was  Western  Re- 
serve; in  Class  III,  Iowa  State.  There  was  no 
runner-up  in  Class  II. 

The  Col.  Ralph  W.  Wilson  Scholarship 
Awards  were  announced  for  the  first  time  in 
honor  of  the  longtime  scholarship  recorder  of 
the  Conference  who  has  retired.  The  Univer- 
sity of  Minnesota,  represented  by  its  IFC,  was 
first  in  the  largest  group  with  a  grade  point 
percentage  of  8.38  per  cent  over  the  all-men's 
undergraduate  average. 

Business  Before  the  House 

That  the  setting  in  which  fraternities  oper- 
ate is  changing  was  reflected  in  several  reso- 
lutions passed  by  the  NIC  House  of  Dele- 
gates. A  resolution  was  passed  to  permit 
chapters  in  institutions  that  have  lost  their  ac- 
creditation to  retain  their  standing  without 
violation  of  NIC  laws.  Another  was  passed  to 
enable  fraternities  to  continue  their  chapters 
on  an  interim  basis  at  an  institution  which  is 
discontinuing  the  recognition  of  fraternities 
as  a  part  of  its  educational  system — provided 
the  administration  has  indicated  that  such 
chapters  need  not  be  disaffiliated. 

NIC  by-laws  were  changed  to  permit  mem- 
ber fraternities  to  establish  chapters  in  exten- 
sion units,  branches,  or  regional  campuses  of 
colleges  or  universities  otherwise  accredited. 

New  NIC  officers  are:  President,  Louis  L. 
Roth,  2  N;  president-elect,  Zeke  L.  Loflin,  0 
S;    vice-presidents,    Tozier    Brown,    A  X  A,

All-Sig  Ep  Luncheon 

Present  at  the  Sig  Ep  luncheon  at  the  Stat- 
ler  Hilton  in  addition  to  undergraduate  IFC 
delegates  were  two  past  Grand  Presidents, 
Headquarters  officials,  district  governors,  stu- 
dent deans,  faculty  advisers,  and  alumni. 

Lewis  A.  Mason,  Syracuse,  represented  the 
National  Board  of  Directors.  Bedford  Black, 
Wake  Forest,  past  Grand  President,  District 
Governor,  is  the  Fraternity's  NIC  delegate; 
Executive  Director  Donald  M.  Johnson,  Kan- 
sas, is  alternate  delegate.  Also  from  HQ: 
Chapter  Services  Director  Charles  N.  White, 
Jr.,  Western  Michigan;  Alumni  Service  Di- 
rector Frank  R.  Marrs,  Marshall;  Staff  Rep- 
resentatives Donald  L.  Tanner,  Memphis 
State,  and  George  Fedoroff,  California.  Jour-

Undergraduate  Views 

As  an  outstanding  district  president  of  the 
IFC,  Joe  Martin  of  Florida  attended  the  NIC. 
He  was  impressed  with  the  caliber  of  the  fra- 
ternity men  there  and  enjoyed  meeting  the 
many  Sig  Ep  delegates.  "Brotherhood  really 
hits  home  when  you  realize  that  you  can  eas- 
ily pick  out  fellow  Sig  Eps  at  such  a  large 
convention.  Many  of  the  men  that  I  became 
close  friends  with  at  the  Cleveland  Conclave 
were  also  outstanding  delegates  in  New 
York."  Martin  said:  "Although  many  of  the 
undergraduate  men  were  exceptional  leaders, 
the  alumni  delegates  provided  the  backbone 
of  the  Conference.  Both  formally  in  the  meet- 
ings and  informally  while  touring  the  city, 
these  men  provided  us  with  ideas  which  could 
never  be  gained  at  home  in  the  fraternity  res- 
idence." 

Joe  Carra  of  Stevens  Tech  comments  as 
follows:  "The  conference  was  primarily  a 
large-scale  exchange  of  ideas.  Just  meeting 
with  men  from  other  chapters  was  very  help- 
ful. Each  person  was  able  to  pick  up  at  least 
a  few  better  methods  of  doing  various  things 
which  he  had  not  even  considered  before, 
while  at  the  same  time  giving  forth  new  ideas 
being  practiced  at  his  school  or  fraternity. 
However,  the  Sig  Ep  luncheon  was  the  high- 
light, as  it  is  always  amazing  to  be  able  to 
talk  face-to-face  with  these  leaders."

PROF'S    STRAW   POLL 
PICKS    WINDERS 

By  JOHN  CHACE 

In  the  Cincinnati  Enquirer 

A  University  of  Cincinnati  political  science 
professor  is  convinced  straw  polling  by  ama- 
tuers,  if  done  properly,  can  forecast  local 
election  outcomes. 

Dr.  Eric  Weise  [Cincinnati,  '54]  a  soft-spo- 
ken 34-year-old  native  of  Charleston,  W.  Va., 
now  has  conducted  three  such  polls,  using 
University  of  Cincinnati  volunteers  and  a  few 
paid  workers,  and  he  has  been  "right  on  the 
nose"  each  time. 

Dr.  Weise  is  a  UC  graduate  and  obtained 
his  doctorate  at  Indiana  University. 


R.  Eric  Weise,  Cincinnati,  director  of 
Robert  A.  Taft  Institute  of  Government 
at  his  alma  mater,  has  devised  a  better 
method  of  forecasting   election   results. 


Perhaps  the  most  surprising  poll  was  in  the 
recent  councilmanic  elections  in  Cincinnati. 

There  was  a  general  feeling  that  Republi- 
cans were  in  trouble. 

About  two  months  ago.  Dr.  Weise  privately 
told  a  friend  that  his  poll  showed  Republi- 
cans would  elect  five  of  the  nine  members  of 
the  council — and  probably  six. 

The  election  results  showed  six  Republi- 
cans elected. 

Dr.  Weise  got  started  on  the  polling 
through  conversations  with  De  Wassen-Czege, 
a  Hungarian  refugee  and  a  computer  special- 
ist now  in  Florida. 

It  is  an  involved  formula  that  Dr.  Weise 
uses  to  select  the  persons  to  be  polled.  It  in- 
volves, among  other  things,  income  and  past 
voting  patterns.  As  it  has  worked  out,  candi- 
dates can  learn  their  strong  and  weak  areas 
and  can  campaign  accordingly. 

Dr.  Weise  first  started  his  poll  last  year 
with  the  U.  S.  representative  race  in  the  first 
Ohio  District.  Since  then  he  has  done  it  on 
(lection  of  a  state  representative  and  for  the 
City  Council  election. 

Weise's  survey  in  the  1966  Congressional 
election  showed  that  Republican  Robert  Taft, 
Jr.  would  knock  off  incumbent  Democrat 
John  Gilligan  by  a  2-3  per  cent  margin. 

Taft  won  the  House  seat  by  less  than  a  4 
per  cent  edge  in  votes. 

In  projecting  the  outcome  of  the  70th  Ohio 
Representative  District,  Weise  sampled  250 
persons.  The  survey  disclosed  that  James 
Hausman  would  beat  out  Norman  Murdock 
by  less  than  1  per  cent  of  votes  cast.  Murdock 
won  by  a  slight  bit  over  1  per  cent. 

Despite  contradictory  predictions  by  a 
professional  poll  held  here  this  summer  con- 
cerning the  city  council  race,  two  of  Weise's 
polls  showed  Republicans  winning  five  posi- 
tions and  very  possibly  six,  with  Charterites 


»o 


taking  two  of  the  seats  and  the  Democrats  one. 

The  outcome  was  just  that — six  Republi- 
cans, two  Charterites,  and  one  Democrat.  The 
professional  poll,  taken  by  an  Eastern  organi- 
zation, said  four  Republicans,  four  Democrats 
and  one  Charterite  would  be  elected. 

In  the  first  poll  held  in  August,  64.5  per 
cent  of  300  persons  statistically  chosen  from 
26  wards  in  the  city  revealed  they  wanted  to 
see  new  faces  in  council. 

The  persons  were  also  questioned  as  to 
what  they  thought  issues  in  the  council  elec- 
tion were  and  80  per  cent  responded  that  civil 
disorders  were  by  far  the  prime  matter. 

The  second  poll  conducted  in  October  con- 
firmed the  projections  of  the  first  poll.  Both 
showed  that  incumbent  Democrats  Thomas 
Luken  and  Phil  Collins  would  lose  their 
seats  and  that  Gilligan,  William  Keating  and 
Ralph  Kohnen  would  be  elected. 

Keating,  Republican,  was  a  Common  Pleas 
Court  judge  and  Kohnen,  also  a  GOP  mem- 
ber, was  a  state  representative. 

Not  only  did  the  poll  prove  right  again  but 
it  also  picked  the  order  in  which  several  of 
the  candidates  would  finish. 

Weise  served  as  a  campaign  manager  of 
Kohnen  and  one  of  his  reasons  for  taking  the 
surveys  was  to  discover  where  Kohnen's  weak- 
nesses and  strengths  in  the  city  where  and 
what  issues  he  needed  to  dwell  upon. 

The  professor  feels  that  the  poll  helped 
Kohnen  gain  a  council  position  and  can  help 
other  candidates  to  map  their  strategies  and 
eventually  get  elected  to  a  post. 

"The  polls  give  us  information  on  how  to 
upset  the  whole  ball  game,"  he  said. 

So  Cincinnati  may  now  have  its  answer  to 
the  Gallup  Poll.

plans  in  the  Office  of  the  Deputy  Chief  of 
Staff  for  Logistics  from  June,  1966,  to  October, 
1967.  During  this  time,  the  general  isolated 
problem  areas,  initiated  actions  to  correct  de- 
ficiencies in  the  logistic  system,  and  expedited 
the  planning  required  for  future  systems. 

His  major  contribution  was  a  study  he 
made  from  September,  1966,  to  March,  1967, 
on  the  Army  Logistic  System  in  Support  of 
Forces  in  Southeast  Asia.  This  study  ana- 
lyzed support  requirements  for  all  classes  of 
supply  as  well  as  maintenance  requirements 
of  U.  S.  combat  forces  in  Southeast  Asia.  He 
also  directed  the  planning  for  a  complete  re- 
construction of  the  communication  lines  in 
Europe  for  U.  S.  and  allied  forces. 

General  Jones  was  responsible  for  develop- 
ing numerous  other  studies  which  included: 
The  Army  Logistic  System  in  Support  of  the 
U.  S.  Army,  Europe;  The  Offshore  Logistic 
Base  Study;  The  Post  Hostilities  Support 
Plan  and  the  U.  S. /Federal  Republic  of  Ger- 
many Combat  Logistic  Support  System. 

His  new  assignment  is  as  deputy  command- 
ing general  of  the  1st  Logistical  Command  in 
Vietnam.  Recipient  of  the  Bronze  Star  Medal 
and  the  Army  Commendation  Medal,  he  en- 
tered the  Army  in  1941. 


Capt.  Dale  N.  Amend,  Colorado  State,  re- 
cently added  the  Distinguished  Flying  Cross 
to  his  Bronze  Star,  19  Air  Medals  and  the 
Presidential  Unit  Citation  for  Vietnam  ser- 
vice. 

Amend  spent  a  year  in  the  Central  High- 
lands of  South  Vietnam  in  the  Pleiku  area  as 
a  Forward  Air  Controller.  He  flew  423  com- 
bat missions,  totaling  773  combat  hours. 
Flying  low  and  alone  over  enemy  territory  in 
an  unarmed  single  engine  0-1  observation  air- 
craft. Captain  Amend's  job  was  to  locate  and 
identify  enemy  troops,  mark  their  location 
with  a  smoke  rocket,  and  then  request  and  di- 
rect an  air  strike  by  U.  S.  tactical  aircraft. 

The  citation  for  the  Distinguished  Flying 
Cross  reads,  "Capt.  Dale  N.  Amend  distin- 
guished himself  by  heroism  while  participat- 
ing in  aerial  flight  as  a  Forward  Air  Control- 
ler near  Pleiku  Air  Base,  Vietnam,  from  May 
17,  1966  to  May  24,  1966.  During  this  time  he 
responded  to  three  emergency  situations  in 
which  special  forces  patrols  were  ambushed 
by  vastly  superior  hostile  forces.  Disregarding 
his  own  safety,  he  successfully  directed  nu- 
merous combat  air  support  missions,  enabling 
the  friendly  patrols  to  successfully  conclude 
their  reconnaissance  mission."

RENEWAL   WEEKEND 

On  the  weekend  of  December  15-17,  a  semes- 
ter of  growth  and  accomplishment  was  cele- 
brated in  the  first  annual  Rhode  Island  Beta 
Renewal  Weekend,  a  program  for  under- 
graduates, alumni,  and  guests  covering  three 
days  of  academy  sessions,  lectures,  movies, 
and  parties.  The  purpose  of  the  weekend  was 
to  acquaint  interested  alumni  with  the  chap- 
ter's current  progress  and  programs  at  first 
hand  and  to  provide  chapter  level  academy 
sessions  for  future  chapter  leaders.  The  week- 
end also  afforded  time  for  general  brainstorm- 
ing sessions  which  provided  everyone  with  the 
opportunity  for  sharing  new  and  different 
ideas  for  improving  all  areas  of  the  fraterni- 
ty's life.  The  essence  of  the  weekend  is  per- 
haps best  stated  in  the  words  of  the  Renewal 
Weekend  Program  which  said:  "In  initiating 


this  idea  of  a  Renewal  Weekend  for  our  chap- 
ter, two  major  objectives  have  guided  our  ef- 
forts. They  are,  simply  continuity  and  creativ- 
ity; the  two  fundamental  attributes  without 
which  no  institution  can  long  hope  to  survive. 
.  .  .  The  fraternity  must  examine  itself  in  the 
light  of  the  context  within  which  it  finds  it- 
self, and  welcome  new,  bold,  and  adventurous 
ideas,  or  else  it  will  surely  perish." 

On  hand  to  assist  in  this  undertaking  were 
District  Governor  Trueman  L.  Sanderson,  and 
Staff  Representative  George  Fedoroff,  as  well 
as   University,   alumni,   and   chapter  officials. 

The  schedule  of  events  began  on  Friday 
night  with  the  annual  Christmas  party.  Satur- 
day's session  included  an  interesting  and  in- 
formative rush  program  and  rush  clinic  pre- 
sented by  Rush  Chairman  Mike  Burke.  The 
chapter's  year-old  and  highly  successful 
"computer  card  rush"  was  discussed  at  great 
length.  Following  an  informal  luncheon  at  the

chapter,  sessions  were  held  on  the  executive 
board  and  cabinet,  the  office  of  president, 
pledge  education,  and  Ritual  Renew^al.  A 
highlight  of  the  pledge  program  was  the  new 
pledge  supplement  to  be  more  or  less  com- 
posed by  the  Pledge  Class  itself.  Saturday 
evening  brought  yet  another  Christmas  party 
with  gift-giving  and  singing. 

The  Sunday  session,  which  was  aimed  more 
at  the  alumni  and  guests,  got  off  to  a  rousing 
start  with  the  film,  "A  Day  in  the  Life," 
which  was  filmed  and  acted  by  the  members 
of  the  house  and  depicted  a  day  at  Sig  Ep. 
An  academy  session  on  the  Alumni  Board 
and  corporation  did  much  to  dispel  the  mis- 
understanding which  can  arise  between  the 
undergraduates  and  the  alumni,  and  a  panel 


discussion  of  the  possibilities  and  problems  of 
breaking  ground  for  a  new  chapter  house 
were  highlights  of  the  day.  During  the  breaks 
between  sessions,  there  were  coffee  hours  and 
displays,  and  vdth  the  help  of  Chapter  Serv- 
ices Director  Chuck  White,  a  small  fraternity 
store  was  set  up  to  sell  the  various  items 
available  through  National  Headquarters. 

The  weekend  came  to  a  close  with  a  can- 
dlelight banquet  at  which  time  brothers  Paul 
St.  Jean  and  Ray  Stillwell  were  commended 
as  outstanding  committee  chairmen  in  their 
respective  areas  of  pledge  education  and 
public  relations.  Staff  Representative  George 
FedorofI  gave  a  short  talk  and  the  festivities 
came  to  an  end  with  the  Anthem  and  a  sense 
of  renewal  best  typified  in  the  motto  of  the 
weekend,  "Brotherhood  Lasts  Forever." 


FAMILIAR   FACES 
IN   THE    FIELD 

There  are  already  hundreds  of  Sig  Eps,  partic- 
ularly in  the  areas  in  which  Robert  C.  Lynch, 
Miami  (Ohio),  '67,  and  George  E.  Fedoroff,  Cali- 
fornia, '67,  have  been  calling  on  chapters,  for 
whom  these  staff  representatives  need  no  introduc- 
tion. Many  brothers  who  attended  the  Cleveland 
Conclave  and  also  the  dedication  of  the  new 
Headquarters  Building  at  Richmond  had  the  op-

portunity  of  meeting  these  men  and  of  talking 
over  problems  with  them. 

Staff  representatives  with  whom  Bob  and 
George  share  visitation  and  counseling  responsi- 
bilities are  James  D.  Fein,  Cincinnati,  '67,  Rich- 
ard W.  Myers,  Tennessee  Wesleyan,  and  Steven 
A.  Sullivan,  San  Jose  State. 

Not  only  in  Sigma  Phi  Epsilon,  but  in  most  of 
the  fraternities — sororities,  too — field  secretaries 
come  and  go  at  a  rapid  rate. 

Meanwhile  Donald  L.  Tanner,  Memphis  State, 
'67,  who  joined  the  staff  as  a  representative  last 
January,  has  a  new  position  which  will  keep  him 
closer  to  Headquarters.  Since  the  last  Journal, 
he  was  named  Director  of  Program  Development, 
a  newly  created  position  which  carries  with  it  the 
responsibilities  suggested  by  the  title. 

Bob  Lynch  served  as  alumni  relations  chair- 
man, rush  chairman,  as  well  as  president  of  his 
chapter.  On  campus  his  activities  included:  Fresh- 
man Counselor,  Residence  Hall  senator.  Phi  Eta 
Sigma  treasurer,  Kappa  Phi  Kappa  secretary,  Om- 
icron  Delta  Kappa,  associate  editor  of  the  orienta- 
tion publications  for  freshman,  Senior  Class  cabi- 
net, and  chairman  of  the  IFC  constitution  revision 
committee. 

Bob  is  a  member  of  the  Presbyterian  Church 
and  has  taught  Bible  school  and  servpd  as  presi- 
dent of  Youth  Fellowship.  His  major  at  Miami 
was  social  studies. 

In  addition  to  being  a  versatile  sports  fan,  Bob 
likes  books  and  has  a  leaning  toward  journalism. 

George  Fedoroff's  subject  interests  at  Cali- 
fornia were  history  and  political  science.  Leader- 
ship experience  in  the  chapter  was  gained  in  the 
offices  of  alumni  chairman,  rush  chairman,  secre- 
tary, controller,  and  vice-president. 

Extremely  active  on  campus,  he  was  a  member 
of  the  council  of  his  class  for  four  years,  was  cho- 
sen outstanding  first  year  man  and  named  to  the 
Senior  Hall  of  Fame.  He  was  a  member  of  the 
Rally  Committee,  Senior  Week  chairman,  and  as- 
sistant manager  of  the  yearbook. 

George  is  a  member  of  the  Russian  Orthodox 
Church  and  has  served  as  altar  boy.  As  his  hob- 
bies he  lists  sailing,  hiking,  classical  music,  and 
reading.

REGIONAL   REVELRY 
AND   RIVALRY 

On  November  25,  the  morning  of  the  Indiana- 
Purdue  "old  Oaken   Bucket"  clash,  the  Sig  Eps 


from  Indiana  and  Purdue  played  their  21st  an- 
nual Scrub  Bucket  football  game.  The  winner  is 
awarded  the  bucket  which  is  a  pail  with  the  col- 
ors of  both  schools  painted  on  it.  The  winner  adds 
a  small  brush  which  has  the  game  score  printed 
on  it.  Score:  Indiana  Beta  8,  Indiana  Alpha  6. 

The  Western  Kentucky  chapter  hosted 
Kentucky  Wesleyan  chapter  for  a  full  day  of  ac- 
tivities on  October  7. 

Western  brothers  and  Golden  Hearts  began  the 
day  by  decorating  New  Orleans  style  for  its  an- 
nual Bourbon  Street  rush  party.  After  lunch  the 
chapters  met  in  a  touch  football  game  won  by 
Wesleyan  13-0. 

Then  followed  one  of  the  biggest  parties  ever 
given  during  rush  at  Western.  Some  200  people 
were  present  and  were  entertained  by  the  Syn 
Lads,  a  band  provided  by  Wesleyan. 

Wesleyan  brothers  also  presented  Delta  broth- 
ers with  a  "Welcome  to  Sig  Ep  Country"  sign — 
later  to  be  very  effective  in  Homecoming  decora- 
tion. 

Sig  Ep  pledges  from  Georgia  Tech  and  Geor- 
gia State  clashed  in  a  spirited  football  game 
November  19.  Tech  pledges  downed  the  State 
team,  6-0.

George  C.  Hindall,  Ohio  Northern,  '33,  in  his 
capacity  as  governor  of  District  37,  administers  to 
the  needs  of  the  Ohio  Northern,  Ohio  Wesleyan, 
Toledo,  and  Bowling  Green  chapters. 

HindaU,  who  earned  his  M.B.A.  at  Ohio  State 
in  1934,  has  continued  his  campus  fraternity  ex- 
perience vicariously  by  raising  three  sons,  all 
Ohio  Northern  Sig  Eps  like  their  dad:  George  R., 
Steven  M.,  and  W.  Bradley.  He  also  has  a  brother 
and  brother-in-law  who  are  members. 

As  an  undergraduate,  George  served  the  chap- 
ter as  historian  and  controller.  On  campus,  he 
was  a  member  of  the  varsity  football,  baseball, 
and  track  teams. 

He  has  served  for  many  years  on  the  alumni 
board  of  his  chapter  and  also  as  chapter  coun- 
selor. Currently  chairman  of  the  Fraternity's  Gov- 
ernors and  Counselors  Commission,  he  has  at- 
tended five  Conclaves. 

Owner  of  the  firm,  Hindall  &  Sons,  at  Ada, 
Ohio,  he  is  a  trustee  of  his  Alma  Mater,  member

Bill  Daily,  Sr.,  chapter  adviser  at  Iowa  State 
for  many  years,  has  been  forced  to  resign  from 
his  position  because  of  poor  health.  He  has  been 
an  inspiration  to  the  chapter  and  a  hard  worker 
for  the  promotion  of  Sig  Ep.  Maurice  Kramer, 
Dean  of  Foreign  Students  at  Iowa  State,  is  the 
new  chapter  adviser. 

Oklahoma  State  Sig  Eps  were  very  pleased 
to  have  Dr.  Carl  Reed  recently  accept  the  position 
of  chapter  faculty  adviser.  Dr.  Reed,  who  received 
his  B.S.  from  Oklahoma  State,  is  a  professor  in 
the  School  of  Engineering  and  is  a  real  favorite 
of  the  men  of  the  house. 


PLAIVS    AXD    PROCEDURES 
FOR    RETTER    OPERATION 

Boston  brothers  held  a  complete  house  evalu- 
ation meeting,  where  they  discussed  the  duties 
and  obligations  of  every  office  and  committee, 
bringing  out  chapter  weaknesses  and  faults,  and 
considering  all  worthwhile  suggestions  that  might 
make  for  a  better-run  fraternity. 

Bradley  Sig  Eps  have  won  recognition  from 
both  the  University  and  the  IPC  for  their  new  ap- 
proach to  training  pledges.  This  can  be  shown  by 
three  semesters  of  100  per  cent  activation,  and  an 
over-all  activation  rate  of  87  per  cent  in  the  last 
seven  semesters. 

Davis  and  Elkins  Sig  Eps  sponsored  a  dinner 
and  reception  for  the  famous  lecturer.  Bill  Sands. 
A  former  inmate  of  San  Quentin  prison,  and  later 
a  rich,  successful  businessman.  Bill  Sands  is  now 
devoting  his  energy  and  talent  to  organizing  reha- 
bilitation programs  to  help  convicts  and  ex-con- 
victs. He  has  lectured  extensively  throughout  the 
United  States  on  the  prevention  of  juvenile  delin- 
quency, prison  reform,  and  rehabilitation.  Sands 
lectured  at  the  College.  — Jim  Rimmer 

Florida  Sig  Eps  set  the  example  for  other 
campus  fraternities  by  revising  their  pledge  pro- 
gram. Junior  and  senior  pledges  with  above  aver- 
age grades  are  offered  special  advanced  training 
which  allows  them  to  become  eligible  for  initia- 
tion earlier  than  previously  required.  Suggested 
by  the  dean  of  men  and  the  IFC,  the  plan  is  de- 
signed to  adjust  the  fraternity  system  to  the  large 
number  of  junior  college  transfer  students  cur- 
rently enrolling  at  state  universities.  Studies  have 
shown  that  such  students  usually  have  less  time  to 
devote  to  pledge  activities  because  of  more  diffi- 
cult upper-division  courses.  A  mature,  farsighted 
pledge  program  aimed  specifically  at  juniors  and 
seniors  is  a  necessity  if  the  Greek  system  is  to  re- 
main strong  in  the  future. 

At  Florida,  the  advanced  class  is  handled  by 
an  assistant  pledge  trainer.  Pledge  meetings  are 
organized  to  allow  the  special  class  to  meet  with 


At    Western    Michigan,    Scholarship    Chairman 
Bob  Cook  sets  good  example  in  how  to  study. 


the  regular  pledges  for  all  subjects  except  frater- 
nity history  and  related  topics.  This  unites  the 
two  groups  into  one  spirited  body.  Brothers  are 
requested  to  give  special  help  to  the  advanced 
class,  always  emphasizing  brotherhood,  for  if  an 
ounce  of  brotherhood  is  sacrificed  by  dividing  the 
pledge  classes,  the  program  is  a  failure.  Initial  re- 
sults show  that  the  Florida  program  is  well  worth 
the  efforts.  — Charles  Harris 

Illinois  Sig  Eps  have  undertaken  a  plan  to  up- 
date and  "computerize"  their  alumni  addresses. 

Through  the  work  of  Greg  Bates  and  Jim 
McGreevy,  and  the  use  of  University  of  Illinois 
computers,  Illinois  Alpha's  104O  alumni,  including 
honoraries  and  affiliates,  each  have  two  computer 
cards  on  file.  These  cards  make  it  possible  to  ob- 
tain "dick  tapes"  (address  labels)  which  can  be 
applied  to  envelopes  quickly  and  easily.  In  addi- 
tion, it  is  possible  to  sort  addresses  by  alphabeti- 
cal order,  state,  chapter  number,  and  even  zip 
code. 

The  use  of  computers  in  alumni  relations  is  a 
small  part  of  a  completely  renovated  alumni  pro- 
gram. The  chapter  now  has  a  schedule  where  two 
letters,  and  two  issues  of  the  Sig  Ep  Indian  are 
mailed  to  each  alumnus  during  the  year.  Due  to 
the  large  number  of  letters  sent,  a  nonprofit  orga- 
nization postal  permit  has  been  obtained  so  that 
each  piece  of  mail  costs  one  and  a  quarter  cents. 

Computer  cards  are  useless  unless  they  are  pro- 
grammed with  accurate  information.  By  inquiring 
at  the  post  office,  alumni  agencies,  and  college  rec- 
ord offices,  we  found  more  than  175  lost  ad- 
dresses. By  looking  through  old  chapter  corre- 
spondence, and  records,  we  have  reduced  the 
number  of  missing  brothers  to  60,  and  only  the 
groundwork  has  been  laid!      — John  Brubaker 

Kansas  Stale  Sig  Eps  have  updated  their 
alumni  relations  by  changing  their  alumni  files 
over  to  data-processing.  A  complete  set  of  IBM 
cards  has  been  punched  for  all  856  names  on  the 
chapter  roll.  Each  card  contains  information  of 
the  member's  name,  pin  number,  and  address,  in- 


43 


eluding  zip  code.  These  cards  allow  the  chapter  to 
produce  an  almost  instantaneous  list  of  alumni 
which  can  be  arranged  in  any  desired  order.  This 
is  a  great  aid  in  preparing  mailing  lists  for  news- 
letters to  the  alumni.  This  modern  system  has 
been  made  possible  through  the  use  of  the  data- 
processing  equipment  in  the  department  of  engi- 
neering at  Kansas  State  University. 

Kearney  State  Sig  Eps  initiated  Robert 
Young,  instructor  in  business,  as  an  honorary 
member.  He  is  a  chapter  adviser. 

Lehigh  Sig  Eps  held  their  sixth  annual  Fine 
Arts  Seminar  in  December.  The  discussions  ini- 
tiated three  years  ago  involve  topics  which  cannot 
really  be  taught  in  any  one  course  such  as  the  im- 
pact of  technology  on  morality,  the  necessity  of 
returning  waste  to  the  soil,  to  mention  only  a  few. 

Sixty  undergraduates  attended  with  discussions 
led  by  prominent  University  professors  and 
oflBcials.  An  attempt  was  made  to  have  someone 
from  every  major  field  so  that,  for  example,  the 
ecologist  could  discover  what  the  philosopher  or 
minister  thought  about  a  certain  topic. 

— Jim  Dorris 

Maryland  Sig  Eps  instituted  a  Spirit  and 
Unity  Committee  last  spring.  The  purpose  is  to 
keep  the  morale  of  the  chapter  high  throughout 
the  semester. 

Initiates  of  the  chapter  are  automatically  made 
members,  along  with  any  other  actives  who  wish 
to  participate.  The  committee  publishes  a  small 
paper.  The  Tissue,  which  is  meant  only  for  the 
undergraduates'  eyes.  The  paper  is  brief  and  hu- 
morous, and  draws  attention  to  both  the  achieve- 
ments and  idiosyncrasies  of  members. 

— Pete  Ruehl 

Michigan  Slate  Sig  Eps  have  recognized  the 
outstanding  service  and  effort  of  Eldon  R.  Nonna- 
maker,  Ohio  Northern,  and  Robert  J.  Woods, 
Michigan  State,  by  awarding  each  term  in  their 
honor  a  pledge  scholarship  and  outstanding 
pledge  trophy.  The  trophies  are  awarded  at  the 
rush  party  to  the  pledge  with  the  highest  grade 
point  during  his  pledgeship  and  to  the  pledge 
who  has  contributed  the  most  talent  to  the  chap- 
ter. Fall  term  recipients  were  Bruce  Gillespie, 
pledge  scholarship,  and  Thomas  Fox,  outstanding 
pledge.  Michigan  Epsilon  feels  that  these  awards 
have  a  dual  purpose — alumni  recognition  and  in- 
centives for  the  pledge. 

The  Michigan  State  chapter's  pledge  program 
emphasizes  chapter  operations.  When  the  pledge 
is  required  to  work  with  individual  officers  and 
cabinet  members,  he  not  only  aids  each  area  of 
operations  but  at  the  same  time  is  effectively  in- 
troduced to  the  responsibility  and  duties  of  each 
position.  This  method  is  rewarding  to  both  the 
pledge  and  the  chapter  in  that  both  can  see  a  job 
well  done  and  know  that  they  had  a  hand  in  mak- 

44 


ing  it  possible.  Michigan  State  Sig  Eps  hope  that 
other  chapters  will  see  the  merits  of  this  aspect  of 
pledge  education.  — Terry  Mitter 

Montana  Sig  Eps  present  the  new  pledges  of 
the  seven  campus  sororities  roses.  After  the  fall 
quarter  formal  sorority  rush  week,  each  group  is 
contacted  to  find  out  the  number  of  new  pledges. 
An  activation  mug  is  filled  with  the  proper  num- 
ber of  roses  and  presented,  during  a  serenade,  to 
each  group  of  pledges  at  their  respective  houses. 
Sig  Ep  is  the  only  campus  living  group  which 
still  continues  this  old  University  of  Montana  tra- 
dition. It  leaves  a  strong  and  lasting  impression 
on  the  freshman  girls  and  does  much  to  promote 
the  house  name  on  campus. 

Parsons  Sig  Eps  have  instituted  a  service  tro- 
phy to  be  awarded  to  the  Greek  organization  that 
contributes  the  most  to  campus  activities  and  stu- 
dent relations. 

At  Parsons,  during  the  fall  rush,  questionnaires 
were  filled  out  by  all  rushees.  The  responses  were 
reviewed  by  the  alumni  board  and  all  the  pledges' 
parents  were  written  a  letter  notifying  them  that 
their  son  was  a  pledge  in  Sig  Ep.  Also,  an  article 
was  sent  to  each  pledge's  hometown  newspaper. 

Parsons  Sig  Eps  in  maintaining  leadership  on 
campus  cultivate  the  support  of  the  administra- 
tion and  faculty  whose  Sig  Ep  members  include: 
Cornell  C.  Clarke,  Ph.D.,  dean  of  students;  Victor 
R.  Rail,  professor  of  mathematics;  William 
MacFarlane,  college  financial  manager;  Tony  Ye- 
lovich,  assistant  football  coach  and  head  wrestling 
coach;  and  0.  B.  Nelson,  head  basketball  coach. 

South  Carolina  Sig  Eps  have  initiated  a  7:00 
to  10:00  P.M.  study  hall  for  all  pledges  and  any 
brothers  who  wish  to  participate.  In  addition,  the 
entire  brotherhood  observes  quiet  hours  nightly 
between  7:00  p.m.  and  7:00  a.m.  This  program 
has  helped  the  house  improve  its  grade-point  aver- 
age. — J.  J.  Smith

ALUMNI 


BIRTHDAYS 

The  birthday  celebration  in  which  Sig  Ep  un- 
dergraduates and  alumni  join  hearts  throughout 
the  nation  is  Founders'  Day,  November  1.  This 
day  marks  the  birth  of  Sigma  Phi  Epsilon  at 
Richmond  College,  Virginia,  where  12  young  men 
laid  the  foundation  of  a  new  brotherhood,  66 
years  ago. 

To  the  undergraduates  and  alumni  of  the  chap- 
ters, the  individual  birthday  celebrations  are  also 
of  great  importance.  During  the  1967-68  session, 
26  chapters  have  observed,  or  plan  to  observe,  an- 
niversaries ranging  from  the  30th  to  65th.  These

Grand  President  Ed  Zollinger  presented  the 
keynote  address  at  Florida's  Founders'  Day  ban- 
quet, October  31.  Florida  alumni  and  actives 
gathered  at  the  fraternity  residence  for  before-din- 
ner punch  and  the  relating  of  old  memories.  After 
a  roast  beef  dinner.  Grand  President  Zollinger 
presented  a  scholarship  check  from  the  William 


Undergraduates  and  alumni  mingled  in  good  fellowship  at  Florida  Founders'  Day  banquet.

L.  Phillips  Foundation  to  active  chapter  secretary 
Charles  Harris.  President  Zollinger's  speech  cen- 
tered around  the  continuing  growth  of  Sigma  Phi 
Epsilon  and  the  challenge  of  the  future. 

Brother  Zollinger  said  he  had  great  faith  in  to- 
day's college  youth  and  quoted  remarks  recently 
made  by  John  S.  Knight,  the  well-known  newspa- 
per publisher.  Knight  said: 

"Considering  the  environment  in  which  they 
have  been  raised,  my  wonderment  is  that  our 
young  people  have  turned  out  so  well. 

"The  public  print  and  television's  glaring  eye 
are  focused  upon  the  hippies  and  the  freebies 
even  as  a  new  generation  of  responsible,  intelli- 
gent youngsters  is  making  new  marks  in  excel- 
lence. 

"By  and  large,  they  are  better  informed  and 
show  greater  curiosity  about  the  world  and  its  fu- 
ture than  their  critical  elders.  Any  bright  young 
person  comes  directly  to  the  point.  He  or  she 
wants  to  know,  to  appraise  the  facts  and  reach  a 
conclusion.  Unlike  politicians  who  fuzz  up  the  is- 
sues, our  youth  can  lay  them  bare,  and  does." 

After  a  humorous  short  film  starring  W.  C. 
Fields,  the  dinner  party  was  adjourned  to  the  liv- 
ing room  where  a  reception  was  held  for  the 
alumni.  In  addition  to  Grand  President  Zollinger, 
prominent  guests  included  Florida  Alpha  alumni 
oflBcers  Huber  Hurst,  Lucius  B.  Gravely,  and 
David  Hendon;  Gainesville  Alumni  Association 
president  Alvin  Alsobrook;  former  district  gover- 
nor William  G.  Cross;  and  Dr.  Robert  Carson, 
faculty  adviser.  Also  present  were  Paul  Selle; 
Speaker  of  the  Florida  House  of  Representatives 
Ralph  Turlington;  Kodak  representative  Paul 
Grigsby  from  Rochester,  N.Y. ;  and  chapter 
alumni  Irwin  Clayton  and  John  Nealy. 

Founder  Thomas  Vaden  McCaul,  who  lives 
only  a  few  blocks  from  the  Florida  chapter  house, 
was  unable  to  attend  the  banquet  because  of  ill- 
ness. Alumni  and  actives  signed  a  giant  get-well 
card  which  was  sent  to  his  home  after  the  recep- 
tion. 


Approximately  a  hundred  brothers  attended  the 
Founders'  Day  dinner  of  the  Denver  Alumni 
Chapter  on  November  3.  Chief  speaker  was  Harry 
Carlson,  a  member  of  the  board  of  regents  of  the 
University  of  Colorado. 

Carlson  stressed  his  conviction  that  campuses 
that  do  not  have  fraternities  are  poor  in  spirit 
compared  to  those  where  good  chapters  work  dih- 
gently  for  the  purposes  of  the  institution  and  for 
the  wholesome  development  of  their  own  mem- 
bers. However,  there  are  elements  which  creep 
into  the  life  of  poorly  led  fraternity  chapters 
which  corrupt,  he  said. 

Election  of  officers  saw  Jack  Whitt  chosen  as 
president,  Chester  M.  Schrepferman,  vice-presi- 
dent; Harlan  V.  Meyer,  secretary-treasurer;  and 
Charles  R.  Patch,  historian.  The  position  of  histo- 
rian is  new.  It  was  created  in  order  to  make 
someone  responsible  for  maintaining  the  member- 
ship file,  making  changes  in  it,  and  also  forward- 
ing address  changes  to  Headquarters.  Not  least, 
the  historian  will  be  expected  to  preserve  material 
relative  to  the  founding  and  operation  of  the  Den- 
ver Alumni  Chapter. 

It  is  hoped  that  all  Sig  Eps  in  the  Denver  met- 
ropolitan area,  and  those  moving  in  or  out,  will 
keep  the  historian  informed. 

Please  address  notices  and  items  of  interest  to 
the  Historian  at  2244  Grape  Street,  Denver,  Colo.

The  Long  Beach  Alumni  Chapter  observed 
Founders'  Day  with  a  dance  at  the  Sheraton  Inn 
in  Huntington  Beach.  The  dance  was  the  initial 
function  for  the  current  year,  and  the  response  of 
interested  alumni  was  encouraging. 

While  many  of  the  members  of  the  Long  Beach 
Alumni  Chapter  are  from  the  Long  Beach  chap- 
ter, all  interested  alumni  of  the  Long  Beach  area 
are  welcome.  Each  month  the  member  alumni  re- 
ceive the  Spectator,  the  newsletter  of  the  chapter 
which  keeps  them  posted.  — Bob  Kopfstein

Homecoming  at  Georgia  Tech,  with  its  tradi- 
tional displays,  parades,  races,  this  year  was  also 
the  occasion  for  the  celebration  of  Georgia  Al- 
pha's 60th  anniversary. 

John  M.  Trapnell,  one  of  Georgia  Alpha's 
seven  founders,  was  the  guest  of  honor  at  the 
60th  Anniversary  Banquet.  Over  one  hundred 
alumni  were  present  with  their  wives  to  enjoy  the 
chicken  dinner. 

After  the  19  to  7  victory  over  the  Blue  Devils 
in  Saturday  afternoon's  football  game,  the  alumni 
were  able  to  get  together  and  talk  about  old  times 
in  the  bar  over  refreshments  provided  by  the 
brothers. 

A  meeting  of  the  Sig  Ep  Builders  Incorpo- 
rated, followed  by  a  meeting  of  the  Board  of  Di- 
rectors of  the  corporation,  was  held  after  the  foot- 
ball game.  Discussed  were  matters  of  importance 
to  the  functioning  of  the  chapter,  both  present 
and  future. 

Saturday  night  the  brothers  and  alumni  jour- 
neyed to  the  Alpha  Kappa  Psi  lodge  for  the  third 
annual  Homecoming  Green  Lantern  Party,  to 
dance  out  the  remaining  hours  of  Homecoming 
1967. 

Mississippi  Slate  Sig  Eps  held  a  Founders' 
Day  banquet  on  November  1.  Guests  at  the  ban- 
quet included  two  alumni  who  are  faculty  mem- 
bers: Dr.  William  Boyd  and  Dr.  Lloyd  P.  Jacks. 
This  banquet  is  to  be  an  annual  affair  at  Missis- 
sippi Beta. 

Members  of  the  Puget  Sound  Alumni  Chap- 
ter gathered  for  the  Founders'  Day  dinner  on  No- 
vember 6  at  the  Arctic  Club,  Seattle,  and  heard 
an  inspiring  speech  by  Past  Grand  President 
Frank  Hamack,  an  alumnus  of  the  George  Wash- 
ington chapter.  The  retired  University  of  Wash- 
ington faculty  member  who  has  three  sons  in 
Sigma  Phi  Epsilon,  in  his  remarks  included  a  re- 
port on  the  Cleveland  Conclave,  which  he  at- 
tended as  Puget  Sound's  delegate. 

Also  included  on  the  program  was  a  report  on 
the  new  house  and  membership  by  Washington 
chapter  president  Dave  Gilbert.  Ken  Cosby  and 
Larry  Waldron  reported  on  the  construction  of 
the  new  house. 

Officers  of  the  alumni  chapter  are  Erling  M. 
Larsen,  president;  John  Q.  Blondin,  vice-presi- 
dent; Paul  F.  Blauert,  secretary;  and  Phil  E.

Kansas  Stale  Sig  Eps  will  observe  the  50th 
anniversary  of  the  chapter  on  February  23-25  with 
three  full  days  of  activities.  These  activities  in- 
clude a  memorial  service  to  deceased  members,  a 
model  initiation,  and  a  banquet. 

By  mid-December,  approximately  100  alumni 
had  written  saying  that  they  and  their  wives  will 
be  attending.  Members  of  Kansas  Beta  are  also 
quite  happy  that  Grand  President  J.  E.  Zollinger 
has  accepted  an  invitation  to  address  the  banquet. 


The  Montana  chapter  celebrated  its  50th  an- 
niversary on  February  2.  The  anniversary  celebra- 
tion was  held  in  conjunction  with  the  chapter's 
annual  Queen  of  Hearts  Ball  in  the  Bitterroot 
Room  of  the  Hotel  Florence.  Many  alumni,  their 
wives,  and  members'  parents  joined  the  under- 
graduates in  attending  the  ball  and  other  func- 
tions. 

The  50th  anniversary  of  the  Oregon  State 
chapter  will  be  held  at  Corvallis  on  February  16, 
17,  and  18. 

The  principal  and  important  reason  for  the  re- 
union is  to  pay  tribute  to  Brother  U.  G.  Dubach 
who  has  been  chapter  counselor  and  guiding  light 
at  Oregon  Alpha  for  50  years.  He  was  the  number 
1  initiate. 

Dubach  was  professor  of  political  science  at 
Oregon  State  University  from  1913  to  1947.  He 
was  dean  of  men  from  1924  to  1947  and  professor 
of  political  science  at  Lewis  and  Clark  College, 
1947  to  1960.  He  has  been  the  guiding  light  and 
adviser  of  Oregon  Alpha  from  1918  to  date. 

Among  the  300  guests  expected  to  attend  were 
Grand  President  J.  E.  Zollinger  and  his  wife  Lu- 
cille; Dr.  Harry  Wellman,  president  of  the  Uni- 
versity of  California,  and  his  wife  Ruth;  Dr.  Jen- 
sen, president  of  Oregon  State;  and  Dr.  Strand, 
immediate  past  president  of  the  University. 

Friday  events  include  registration  and  a  buffet 
supper  at  the  chapter  house;  Saturday  events, 
luncheon  at  the  Union;  formal  initiation;  a  me 
morial  service;  and  the  banquet  in  the  Memorial 
Union  Avith  Dr.  and  Mrs.  Dubach  as  the  guests  of 
honor  and  Robert  Rau,  as  chief  speaker.

dance  in  Dallas  on  December  9  for  his  "outstand- 
ing contributions  to  Texas  Zeta." 

Indiana  University  Sig  Eps  made  the  most 
of  their  Alma  Mater's  fine  football  year,  9-1,  with 
the  biggest  and  best  Homecoming  in  years.  Home- 
coming was  held  over  the  weekend  of  November 
3,  4,  and  5.  Fred  Prall,  Bill  VanKeuren,  and 
Tom  Horka  organized  and  supervised  the  get-to- 
gether which  saw  more  than  400  alumni  and  fami- 
lies attend  the  weekend  affair.  The  Sig  Eps  re-

Johns  Hopkins  undergraduates,  alumni,  and 
some  faculty  members  recently  gathered  at  the 
chapter  house  for  a  Sunday  afternoon  cocktail 
party  honoring  the  alumni.  The  party  provided  a 
chance  for  the  active  brotherhood  to  become  bet- 
ter acquainted  with  the  alumni,  for  the  alumni  to 
renew  old  friendships  with  former  teachers,  and 
for  the  students  to  meet  in  an  informal  manner 
with  their  professors. 

Alunani  Affairs  Director  Frank  Marrs  attended. 

The  third  annual  Sig  Ep  Showcase  Banquet 
was  held  November  4,  at  the  Mission  Inn  Res- 
taurant, 7508  W.  63rd,  Shawnee-Mission,  Kan., 
where  regular  monthly  dinner  meetings  of  the 
Greater  Kansas  City  Alumni  Chapter  are  held 
on  the  second  Tuesday  of  each  month.  A  good 
crowd  of  alumni  was  on  hand  to  welcome  the  ac- 
tive chapter  representatives.  All  14  Kansas  and 
Missouri  chapters  and  the  Warrensburg  colony 
were  invited  to  attend  and  four  from  each  state 
participated  by  sending  a  delegation  of  brothers 
or  a  written  report  on  activities.  John  W.  Hart- 
man,  a  National  Director,  was  on  hand  to  bring 
us  greetings  from  Richmond.  Jean  Fisher,  former 
traveling  secretary  and  district  governor,  presided. 
The  citation  presented  to  Judge  Earle  W.  Frost  at 
the  Cleveland  Conclave  was  re-presented  during 
the  festivities  which  followed  the  dinner.  Presen- 
tation was  made  by  Ken  Van  Scoy,  who  served  as 
general  chairman  of  the  1947  Conclave,  held  in 
Kansas  City. 

The  highlight  of  the  evening  was  an  inspiring 
talk  by  Brother  Lynn  Faris  (Illinois  Alpha  and 
Massachusetts  Gamma) .  Lynn  is  well  known  in 
the  Kansas  City  area  as  sportscaster  for  radio  sta- 
tion KCMO  and  TV  station  KCMO-TV.  It  was  a 
chance  remark  Lynn  made  during  a  football 
broadcast  which  brought  to  the  attention  of  the 

49 


local  alumni  chapter  that  he  is  a  Sig  Ep.  After 
some  amusing  remarks  about  the  "late"  Kansas 
City  Athletics  baseball  team,  Lynn  shifted  the  em- 
phasis of  his  talk  to  the  fraternity.  In  the  course 
of  his  travels  about  the  country  broadcasting 
games  from  college  towns  he  has  had  the  opportu- 
nity to  visit  many  chapter  houses,  and,  as  he  put 
it,  he  always  makes  it  a  point  to  "search  out  the 
Red  Door  and  drop  in  to  say  hello." 

He  made  a  strong  plea,  largely  directed  to  the 
active  members  present,  for  closer  ties  between 
actives  and  alumni.  This  could  start  with  an  en- 
thusiastic greeting  for  alumni  who  visit  the  chap- 
ter house.  A  lackadaisical  "I  don't  believe  I've 
met  you"  and  a  reluctant  handshake  are  not 
enough,  Lynn  said.  A  hearty  and  sincere  welcome 
— "My  name  is  Joe  Smith.  Welcome  to  the  Sig  Ep 
house!" — and  a  firm  grip  will  make  the  brother 
want  to  return  again.  "Actives  have  to  be  sales- 
men where  alums  are  concerned  just  as  much  as 
they  do  during  undergraduate  rush,"  he  said. 
Brother  Faris'  remarks  were  enthusiastically  re- 
ceived by  the  Sig  Eps  present  and  he  was  given  a 
standing  ovation.  —Dick  Southall 

The  Little  Rock  Alumni  Association  was 
reorganized  in  September,  1967.  A  cocktail-buffet 
and  meeting  are  held  the  second  Tuesday  of  each

ment of  a  Sig  Ep  chapter  at  Little  Rock  Univer- 
sity its  major  project.      — John  W.  Ramsey,  Jr. 

At  Marshall,  the  alumni  chapter  gave  a  party 
December  13  at  the  Palmerian  Society  Hall  for 
the  undergraduate  chapter.  Plans  and  finances  for 
the  upcoming  new  house  were  discussed. 

Ohio  State  alumni  returned  to  Columbus  for 
Homecoming  Weekend.  Friday  evening  a  smoker 
was  held,  Saturday  a  pre-game  brunch  at  the 
chapter  house,  followed  by  the  Illinois  game,  and 
a  dinner-dance  at  the  Hospitality  Inn.

fourth-grader,  lives  in  Hong  Kong  with  his  par- 
ents and  four  brothers  and  sisters.  His  family  is 
originally  from  mainland  China  where  they  fled 
seeking  freedom.

Plan  has  sponsored  the  adoption  of  over  840,000 
children  in  thirty  different  countries  by  over 
600,000  foster  parents.

successful  Founders'  Day  banquet  November  3  at 
the  Town  House  Motor  Inn  of  Columbia.  An  out- 
standing address  on  "The  Challenge  of  Change"

tion.

At  Stevens  Point  State,  officers  of  the 
Wisconsin  Delta  alumni  board  include:  William

ities, and  obliged  his  brothers  with  a  song  dedi- 
cated to  them  called  "Sig  Ep." 

Temple  alumni  returned  at  Homecoming  to

traditional  annual  get-together. 

Some  35  Sig  Eps,  mainly  Wisconsin  alumni, 
with  representation  from  the  Lawrence  and  Car- 
roll chapters  as  well,  met  in  Monroe,  on  August 
20,  as  guests  of  five  Monroe-based  Sig  Eps  who 
acted  as  hosts  for  the  day. 

Sig  Eps  and  their  wives  from  Wisconsin, 
Minnesota,  Illinois,  and  Iowa  made  up  the  contin- 
gent, some  of  whom  had  not  seen  each  other  for 
some  30  years. 

The  proverbial  barrel  of  beer,  chickens  barbe- 
cued, and  a  backyard  picnic  provided  the  back- 
drop for  conversation  and  fellowship  on  a  nice 
Sunday  afternoon  in  Monroe.

RED    DOOR   NOTES 

Baldwin-Wallace  Sig  Eps,  through  the  efforts 
of  Chapter  president  Jim  Hampton  and  House 
Committee  chairman  Jim  Maxen,  have  spent 
$3,500  on  new  furnishings  for  their  lounge  and 
have  secured  an  oflBce  close  to  their  living  quar- 
ters in  the  southwest  section  of  Ernsthausen  Hall. 

At  Belmont  Abbey  a  new  brick  floor  was 
laid  in  the  Rathskeller  part  of  the  house,  the 
bricks  from  the  old  floor  being  used  to  make  a 
walkway  to  the  house.  Three  rooms  of  the  house 
have  been  re-ceilinged. 

Boston  Sig  Eps  had  their  dining  room  sanded 
and  refinished;  the  house  was  also  completely  re- 
wired. 

Bucknell  Sig  Eps  have  installed  ceilings  in 
their  living,  dining,  and  chapter  rooms  of  acousti- 
cal tile.  In  addition  the  dining  and  chapter  rooms 
were  paneled  with  mahogany  sections  while  a 
generous  gift  provided  new  curtains.  Over  the 
summer  a  concrete  patio  encircled  by  a  red  brick 
wall  topped  with  slate  was  also  constructed. 

Carroll  Sig  Eps  opened  their  new  $250,000 
home  at  201  N.  Charles  St.  in  October  with  the 
help  of  more  than  200  alumni  and  actives  along 
with  families  and  friends.  Dr.  Ralph  S.  Nanz,  pro- 
fessor emeritus  of  biology  and  adviser  to  the 
chapter  from  1926-59,  dedicated  the  house.  Rich- 
ard Oates,  Carroll,  '60,  president  of  the  alumni 
board,  presented  a  key  to  chapter  president  Tom 
Patterson. 


The  house,  the  design  of  which  has  been  called 
Modern  Polynesian,  accommodates  48  men  and  a 
housemother.  There  are  three  floors  of  living 
space,  including  a  700-square-foot  chapter  room, 
connected  to  two  floors  of  recreation  space,  in- 
cluding a  spacious  living  room  with  two  brick 
walls,  a  brick  floor,  and  a  large  fireplace,  a  two- 
room  housemother's  suite,  two  large  recreation 
rooms,  and  a  sunken  courtyard  for  outdoor  fun. 

The  house's  completion  culminates  40  years  of 
planning  by  Dr.  Nanz,  who  was  instrumental  in 
bringing  Sigma  Phi  Epsilon  to  Carroll  in  1940. 

Colorado  Mines  Sig  Eps  on  November  18 
held  ground-breaking  ceremonies  for  a  new  chap- 
ter house  which  is  expected  to  be  completed  by 
midsummer.  Chapter  president  Chuck  Wentz, 
Alumni  Board  president  Marv  Kay,  and  Dean  of 
Students  Francis  Smiley  wielded  the  shovel.  A 
banquet  at  the  house  climaxed  the  event. 

Davis  and  Elkins  Sig  Eps  completely  redec- 
orated the  Housemother's  apartment,  including 
painting,  carpeting,  draperies,  and  furniture. 

At  Delaware,  new  library  desks  and  acoustical

tic achievement. 

One  would  never  guess  by  looking  at  it  that 
the  Sig  Ep  house  at  Evansville  is  more  than  100 
years  old.  The  house  is  in  excellent  shape.  The 
historic  landmark  was  built  in  1853  by  a  man 
known  only  as  Mr.  Ross.  The  house  looks  as  good 
inside  as  it  does  outside.  The  senior  brothers 
painted  the  rooms  on  the  first  floor  last  year  giv- 
ing the  house  a  "like  new"  look.  The  chapter

bought  the  house  in  1959  and  expects  many  more 
years  of  shelter  from  it. 

At  Florida,  the  alumni  completely  refurnished 
the  chapter  room.  A  stereo  tape-phonograph  sys- 
tem was  installed  in  record  room  and  a  color  tele- 
vision set  was  purchased  for  the  housemother's 
apartment. 


Florida  State  Sig  Eps  moved  into  their  com- 
pletely renovated  house  in  mid-October  which  was 
gutted  by  fire  in  February.  The  third  floor,  form- 
erly known  as  the  attic,  was  converted  into  sleep- 
ing quarters  for  ten  men,  is  fully  air-conditioned 
and  carpeted  and  has  a  reading  room.  The  bath- 
room on  the  second  floor  was  completely  redone 
with  new  equipment  and  tile,  and  rooms  and  the 
hallways  of  the  second  floor  are  also  carpeted. 
New  desks  and  beds  are  present  in  all  rooms  and 
provisions  have  been  made  for  new  furniture 
downstairs.  George  Kaludis,  chapter  adviser  and 
new  District  Governor,  was  fundamentally  respon- 
sible for  the  improvements. 

Georgia  Sig  Eps  have  leased  a  two-story  house 
at  624  Milledge  Avenue  which  accommodates  44 
men.  Members  gave  up  two  weeks  of  their  sum- 
mer vacation  to  prepare  the  house  for  fall  rush. 

Iowa  Wesleyan,  work  is  being  completed  on 
the  renovation  of  the  house. 

Kearney  State  Sig  Eps  purchased  a  new

new  walls  and  color,  and  new  draperies. 


Maine  Sig  Eps  recently  installed  $800  worth 
of  new  carpeting  in  the  halls  along  with  wooden 
paneling.  Plans  have  been  drawn  and  approved 
for  a  $60,000,  20-men  addition  to  be  completed  by 
Founders'  Day  1968. 

At  North  Carolina,  columns  will  be  added  to 
the  front  of  the  house  soon  after  second  semester 
begins.  The  fall  pledge  class  built  a  new  bar  and 
redecorated  the  ladies'  lounge.  New  furniture,  car- 
pet, lamps,  and  a  paint  job  turned  the  once- 
dreary  lounge  into  an  attractive,  cheerful  room. 

At  North  Texas  State,  the  spring  pledge 
class  presented  to  the  fraternity,  a  large  profes- 
sionally painted  crest  sign.

on  Titan  Court,  composed  completely  of  Greek 
houses.  The  other  Greeks  on  campus  gave  the 
men  a  very  warm  welcome.  Many  house  warm- 
ings, dinners,  and  popcorn  parties  were  given  to 
welcome  the  men  into  their  new  house.  Jim 
White,  president,  accepted  the  key  to  the  court 
from  Chi  Omega. 

At  Randolph-Macon,  every  room  in  the  house 
has  been  redecorated,  the  yard  has  been  land- 
scaped and  enclosed  with  a  fence.  A  savings  fund 
has  been  started  with  the  intention  of  saving  to- 
wards the  construction  of  a  library-study-trophy 
room  dedicated  to  the  alumni.  A  side  porch  has 
been  set  aside  as  the  site  of  the  planned  room. 
The  porch  will  be  weatherproofed,  carpeted,  pan- 
neled,  and  book  and  trophy  shelves  added.  The 
cost  of  the  project  is  estimated  to  be  $3,000.  A 
fourth  of  the  needed  sum  has  been  raised  mainly 
from  the  alumni.  Books  are  being  set  aside  for 
the  planned  room. 

Rollins  Sig  Eps  had  their  house  remodeled 
over  the  summer.  The  lounge  was  redesigned  in 
red  and  blue  decor,  and  individual  rooms  were  re- 
painted and  provided  with  carpeting.  The  outside 
of  the  house  was  redone.  All  fraternity  houses  on 
campus  belong  to  the  school,  and  the  entire  reno- 
vation was  done  at  a  cost  of  $55,000  to  the  Col- 
lege.

At  Southwest  Missouri  State,  the  living 
room  has  been  improved  with  the  addition  of  a 
new  couch  set  and  two  matching  chairs.  New  fur- 
niture has  also  been  placed  in  the  TV  room  in 
the  way  of  two  large  couches  and  two  extra  large 
chairs.  The  basement  has  been  redone  with  the 
addition  of  paneling  and  a  lowered  ceiling.  It  was 
done  in  a  redwood  color  and  is  a  huge  improve- 
ment from  the  old  bare  basement.  The  second 
floor  hall  was  also  paneled  and  the  ceiling  low- 
ered. 

Tampa  Sig  Eps  have  remodeled  the  down- 
stairs of  their  24-man  house  situated  at  315  Hyde 
Park  Avenue.  The  TV  room  has  been  paneled,  the 
living  room  redecorated,  and  the  kitchen  re- 
equipped.  Plans  for  the  future  call  for  a  library 
addition. 

Temple  alumni  and  undergraduates  worked 
hand  in  hand  to  remodel,  refurnish,  and  redeco- 
rate the  newly  acquired  house  at  1417  Diamond 
Street.  A  library  is  now  planned  to  honor  the  late 
Ray  Burkley. 

At  William  and  Mary,  the  new  chapter 
house,  part  of  a  twelve-fraternity  complex  being 
built  by  the  College,  is  expected  to  be  ready  for 
occupancy  by  March  1,  1%8.  The  newly  created 
alumni  board  of  Virginia  Delta  has  been  instru- 
mental in  helping  to  finance  the  furniture  and  ap- 
pliances for  the  main  floor  and  basement.

TIME    OUT   FOR   HUMANITY 

At  Atlantic  Christian,  a  Christmas  party 
was  given  for  the  underprivileged  children  in  Wil- 
son. Santa  visited  the  children,  bringing  them 
gifts  and  a  promise  of  a  very  merry  Christmas  for 
all. 

Baldwin-Wallace  Sig  Eps  have  embarked  on 
a  weekly  work  project  in  the  Hough  area.  Work-

unconcern.  The  program,  initiated  by  David  Bo- 
dine  and  largely  supported  by  Bruce  Leslie, 
Bobby  Allen,  and  George  White,  has  yielded  a 
sense  of  accomplishment. 

The  mission  in  this  impoverished,  once  dishev- 
eled area  is  headed  by  Father  Albert  Koklowsky 
whose  eflforts  are  mirrored  in  the  shiny  new  paint, 
clean  homes,  tidy  lawns,  and  the  smiling  attitudes 
of  the  area.  Poverty  does  still  exist  but  pride  is 
now  evident.  Houses  have  been  scraped  and 
painted,  broken  windows  replaced,  old  fences  torn 
down,  and  "clean-house"  awards  are  proudly  dis- 
played in  front  windows.  Neighbors  now  know 
and  work  with  each  other  where  distrust  and  jeal- 
ousy once  reigned. 

Bradley  Sig  Eps  joined  with  the  Chi  Omegas 
in  a  Red  Cross-sponsored  Christmas  party  for  sev- 
eral homeless  children.  Larry  Gardner  was  Santa. 

Bucknell  Sig  Eps  recently  spent  a  day  install- 
ing a  ceiling  and  insulation  for  a  needy  family  in 
a  nearby  community.  This  was  done  in  conjimc- 
tion  with  the  Tricounty  Economic  Development 
Agency.  While  the  ceiling  was  being  completed 
the  sisters  of  Alpha  Chi  Omega  took  the  mother 
and  seven  children  Christmas  shopping.  The 
brothers  have  created  a  fund  which  would  provide 
Christmas  meals  for  underprivileged  families  in 
the  area.  They  also  distributed  toys  to  the  chil- 
dren of  several  of  these  families. 

The  chapter  also  held  its  annual  Christmas 
party  for  the  retarded  children  at  the  Selinsgrove

ciation. The  brothers,  with  Russ  Kelm  as  chair- 
man, marched  along  Main  Street  for  six  miles, 
some  on  crutches,  some  carrying  "Dollars  for  Dys- 
trophy" signs,  and  collected  money.

Georgia  State  Sig  Eps  made  their  annual 
trip  to  the  Ethyl  Harps  Orphanage  December  16. 
The  Sig  Eps  feel  this  is  the  most  worth-while  en- 
deavor of  the  year.  A  party  was  held  and  presents 
were  distributed  to  the  children.  The  Sig  Eps  also 
participated  in  the  annual  Empty  Stocking  Fund 
drive  early  last  December.  Both  brothers  and 
pledges  gave  100  per  cent  efifort.  All  funds  col- 
lected were  used  to  buy  Christmas  presents  for 
needy  children.

game,  the  car  was  ready  for  demolition.  Three 
blows  with  a  sledgehammer,  for  a  quarter;  one 
hit  for  a  dime.  Large  crowds  gathered  to  watch 
and  participate  in  the  fun.  All  proceeds  of  the 
project  went  to  the  Heart  Fund,  after  deductions 
to  cover  the  cost  of  new  sledgehammer  handles.

November  19  to  raise  money  for  the  building 
fund.  Although  it  was  a  seasonable  autumn  day, 
cold  and  windy,  the  brothers  turned  out  in  large 
numbers  and  with  high  spirits.  Everyone  was  kept 
busy  from  12:00  noon  until  4:00  with  no  end  to 
the  line  of  cars.  The  affair  was  dubbed  a  success 
and  several  more  are  being  planned  for  the 
Spring  semester. 

Lehigh  Sig  Eps  hosted  a  Christmas  party  for 
women  from  a  local  nursing  home  and  underprivi-

Involvement  at  Lawrence 

SIX  Lawrence  University  Sig  Eps  were  recently 
credited  with  nabbing  a  36-year-old  ex-convict 
fleeing  from  a  burglary  at  a  downtown  Appleton 
drugstore.  The  six,  now  known  as  the  Sig  Ep 
"Crime-fighters,"  were  Earl  Tryon,  John  Roberts, 
Neil  Russel,  Rod  Buchen,  Tom  Hartley,  and 
Douglas  Fulrath.  They  were  making  their  way 
from  Jim's  Place  to  the  Cozy  Corner  Inn,  when 
the  drugstore  owner,  who  was  chasing  the  burglar 
down  an  alley,  saw  the  boys,  and  shouted  for 
them  to  stop  the  burglar.  Courageously,  they 
formed  a  line  across  the  alley,  and  apprehended 
the  burglar  as  he  ran  into  them.  The  man  had  re- 
portedly been  quite  violent,  but  once  in  the  grip 
of  the  six  Sig  Eps,  he  gave  up  with  little  struggle. 
The  six  received  commendations  from  the  Ap- 
pleton Police  Department,  as  well  as  two  large 
baskets  of  fruit  from  the  grateful  drugstore 
owner.

library  at  Penn 


AT  PENNSYLVANIA,  Roland  Kramer,'19,  started 
a  drive  to  establish  a  house  library  with  a  dona- 
tion of  two  cases  of  books.  Included  in  the  dona- 
tion was  a  complete  seventy-one  volume  set  of  the 
Harvard  Classics,  the  complete  works  of  Alexandre 
Dumas,  and  Churchill's  six-volume  history  of  the 
Second  World  War  along  with  some  fourteen 
other  titles. 

The  donation  came  as  a  result  of  a  call  for 
books  by  the  Penn  Delta  Foundation  to  stock  a 
chapter  library.  At  that  meeting,  $300  was  appro- 
priated for  the  purchase  of  large  reference  books 
such  as  the  Random  House  Dictionary,  The  Hand- 
book of  Chemistry  and  Physics,  and  other  refer- 
ence works  commonly  used  by  undergraduates. 

Kramer's  gift  not  only  provided  a  substantial 
basis  for  the  house  library,  but  he  also  supplied 
the  bookcases.  Plans  for  the  new  house  will  in- 
corporate a  Chapter  Room-Library.

DEVOTION    UPON 
EMERGENT    OCCASIONS 

■  This  past  season,  the  golfing  rivalry  of  Paul 
CJeary  and  Edward  McCall,  chapter  brothers 
at  the  Pitt  house  some  eight  or  nine  years  ago, 
occasioned  the  use  of  considerable  printer's  ink. 
A  personal  notice  in  the  Pittsburgh  Press  read  as 
follows:  "I,  Paul  R.  Cleary,  do  hereby  publicly 
concede  and  acknowledge  that  Edward  C.  McCall 
is  a  better  golfer  than  I." 

This  notice  got  air  time  over  local  TV  stations, 
a  full-column  story  in  the  sports  section  of  the 
Press,  and  at  length  international  coverage  in 
Reader's  Digest. 


Michigan  Tech  Sig  Eps  repainted  house 
and  remodeled  porch  within  three  days. 


■  Ohio  State  University  has   announced   l%8-69

dents, advisers  to  international  students,  directors 
of  residences,  deans  of  students,  directors  of  stu- 
dent activities,  etc. 

Generally  the  first-year  recipients  of  assistant-

hall  assistants,  group  advisers,  and  counselors. 
They  work  about  20  hours  a  week  under  supervi- 
sion of  the  directors  of  residence  and  the  student

Master's  for  the  Doctorate.  A  thesis  or  disserta- 
tion is  required.  The  student  may  register  for  a 
maximum  of  12  hours  each  quarter.  Among  the

sonnel field  are:  Psychology  of  Counseling  with 
Dr.  Francis  P.  Robinson;  Interaction  of  the  Stu-
