THE ARROW OF P I BET A PHI

Editorials

O f E c o n o m y

This issue has been a difficult one to prepare! Necessity for very rigid economy has struck the ARR OW, and the question has been not so much "What shall we print?" as "What must we leave out!" First to feel the cu t had to be the department of Pi Phi Personalities, and many tine items sent in have perforce been omitted - but later in the year we plan an issue made up Jargely of personality stories, so much of that material ca n be used at that time. Then came the report of the Scholarship Committee, with close to a hundred pictures of girls-one group of them was so large that it had to go out-there were 59 pictures of members of Alpha Lamlxl. Delta out of 74 reported by chap ter s, truly a showing to be proud of! It promises much for future strength in co llege activities on the part of those girls who won that honor as freshmen! To each one of them goes an apology from the Editor of the ARROW, and a "Well Done!"

The entire report of the Scholarship committee is most interesting , and should be read by every Pi Phi.

+ +

Of C on ve ntion - and a Windfall!

The ARROW has a new staff member , Mr. Paul Busey (yes, he is the fraternity accountant), who is to be Convention Photographic Editor, and has volunteered to help in every aspect of Convention picture taking, even to helping individuals who bring their cameras to use t hem to the best possible advantage. He is nationally known as a photographer, and Jasper Park is h is hobby. H e very generous l y had made for us the truly beautiful cuts which are used in the Co nvention section of Jasper Park , at his own expense. They are chosen from among many of his wonderful pictures which have made the choice of Convention site for 1950 seem to be one of our very best. Read Mr . Busey 's article about the Park, and you too will be caught up in his visio n of that grandly beautiful out doors land of the Canadian Rockies. All the wonders that Mr . Busey has pictured and described are waiting for yOll there, with the added charm of the gracious hospitality of our Canadian chapte rs, and the presen ce of hundreds of Pi Phis from the fou r co rners of the co ntinent--<ome and see for yourse lves!

Of S y mpath y

Sorrow has struck at members of Grand Council in the last few weeks, in overflowing measureto Marianne Reid Wi ld in the death of her only son, Leonard , brilliant student at Washington and Lee, instant ly ki lled in an automobile accident; to Lucile Doug las Caron in the sudden deat h of her mother. The hearts of Pi Phis everywhere have gone out to them both.

Hail and Far e w ell

The ARROW greets with pleasure the members of the two new chapters, California Eps il on (dear to the Editor's heart!) and Alabama Beta-also the newly pledged members of the chapterto-be at Santa Barbara, California Zeta, and in addition all the new pledges who have co me to our chapters as a result of the Fall rushing season. Before them all lies the incredible richness of experience that may be theirs in Pi Beta Phi , if by their love and their enthusiasm they make the Fraternity a vital part of their lives.

It IS sad, though, to be forced to announce that by decision of the Board of Trustees of Goucher College at the close of this co llege year, all national fraternity charters must be withdrawn

from chapte rs on that camp us, and SO we lose Maryl and Alph a, long an honored membe r of our family of c hapters. Miss Onken, in her letter to Provin ce Presid ent s, has w ell expressed the f ee lin g of the fraternity over their loss, when s h e said " Pi Beta Phi is losin g a chapter which h as g iv en it many loyal and valued members. It is most g ratifying to h ave t hi s year's chapt e r write of the ' heartbreak ' which the announ cement has brought with it, and its determination to make t hi s l ast year for M a ry l and Alpha as an active chapter an exceedingly fine onc." -}- -+ -}-

ing from 12 10 150 miles, to Mt. Edith Cavell, Miette Hot Springs, Maligne Canyon, and the Columbia Ice Fields .

One of the first questions a delegate will ask is, "What shall I take to wear?" You will want an evening dress for formal dinner and eve· nings at the lodge . Outsid e of this, "Let your conscience be your guide." Wear what you l ike; sport clothes are tops. If you ca re to swim, bring a bathing suit, altho suits may be rented at the pool. You will need a heavy c oat and sweater for cool evenings and hiking in the mountains. Sun glasses and low heel shoes for hiking are almost a "mus t ." If you ride. breeches , or "levis" are a good idea. Flanne l shirts are useful. There is little for · mality around the lodge. One day laundry is avai l ab le.

By all mean s, if it is po ss ible bring a ca mera , and a limited supply of film This last item is generally available at the lodge or at Jasper , but they may be out of your size. If you are taking black and white pictures, bring a K2 filter. and a filter is sometimes very pseful. As your offiCial photographer for the convention, I will be glad to share with you my experience in taking pictures in the Rockies, and in obtaining supplies. ]f you are ca rrying your camera into Canada, it will be necessary for you to make out a custom declaration. Films are developed and you can get contact prints from them the same day.

Another question you will ask is , "How can 1 see the most Canadian mountain scenery dur · ing my stay in Jasper? " You will, of course do a certain amount of "hiking" in and around the Lodge grounds. You will doubtless run into

deer: mountain sheep and bear. However, as no hunting is allowed in the Park, these animals as a rule will never bother you. There is no poison ivy, and NO SNAKES. A stroll around Lac Mildred and Lac Beauvert, taking in the golf grounds on the way, will be time well spent. A few hours on horseback on the numerous well-marked trails around the Lodge, will give you an excellent view of the mountain ranges.

You will, without doubt, wish on recreation day to take a bus to Mt. Edith Cavell, and the Glacier of the Angel. This should only take about three hours . including an hour at the Glacier. One of the twilight drives or the general drive, conducted by the Lodge, is worth while. The ride along the Athabaska River to Maligne Canyon is not a long one.

Although United States citizens do not require a passport to enter Canada, it might be helpful to carry some proof of your citizenship, such as a birth certificate. A Canadian Customs officer is located at the Lodge to fa cilitate the clearing of your baggage . Your trip to Jasper will be the experience of a life-time , and with Arthur Conan Doyle, you will say:

" r have seen the gorge of Erie, where the roaring waters run,

r have crossed the Inland O cea n, lying golden in the sun,

But the last and best and sweetest is the ride by hill and dale,

With the packer and the packhorse on the Athabaska Trail."

I'll be seeing you in Jasper

THE JNSTALLATION of California Epsilon chapter of Pi Beta Phi at San Diego State College, San Diego, California on September I , 1949, climaxed months of dreaming and plan· ning by members of the San Diego Alumn", Club and the local chapter, Phi Sigma Nu. The presence of Amy Burnham Onken, Grand President, as guest of honor and installing officer, with Adele Taylor Alford, ARROW Editor , Olga Charles Siburg, Mu Province President, and Marcella McCormick Rhodes as her as· sistants, brought inspiration to Pi Phis of Southern California and new initiates alike.

Pledging ceremonies for 116 women began Friday evening and (onlinued all day Saturday. with Adele Alford in cha rg e. What a hot day that was! but not even the heat could daunt the tireless installation committee under the chairmanship of Aileen Nelson Johnson, Wyoming A, and the day dosed with a cooky.

Amy Onken and Lois Snyder Finger, former Grand Secretary, arrived Sunday afternoon, and were greeted at El Cortez Hotel by Adele Alford, Phyllis Dorman , president of <t> N, Barbara Jenkins and Dorothy Dibb, past presidents, and Lenore Hughes, past treasurer. That evening the ('xecutive board of the club honored Mi ss Onken, Mrs. Siburg, and Mrs. Rhod es at an informal dinner at the Ad· miral Kidd Officers' Club on the hay.

Background

When word reached the local group that they had bee n g r anted a charter by Pi Beta Phi in June 19-19 . found themselves becoming p ledges all over again. True they had no arrow heads to symbol ize their status, a nd t h ey were not allowed to ca ll themselves Pi Beta Ph i p led ges , but it was announced in the local newspapers that installation would take place in Au g ust Pl edge trai ning bega n at on ce u nd er the dir ection of the ARROW Editor , sp ecia l advisor to th e new c hapter Members of the new advisory board spoke at Monday meetings on fraternity sub jects, and p led ge tests were prepared for and taken und e r the supervision of San Diego active chapt er members Norma Ma e John so n, and M a ry Jean Harri s, Wyoming A, J ean Jefferso n , Colorado A, Joey Wight , California .:l , and Judy Bea ch, Indian a E. K at he rin e T easley, Co lora do A, graduate student, was n a med super viso r of th e group for the com ing year.

Phi Sigma N u Sorority was almost twentyfive years old, havin g been founded on January t9 , 19 25, by twelve members of the Pet rol Rowin g Club at the old San Diego Normal School. Sin ce that date, more than three hundred members h ad been a ffiliated with the group. In 19 46, th e two alumn", groups, A and B, were form e d to accommodate the overflow of alumn<r! m embers of <J) N. Of these, sixtythree we r e initiated into Pi Be ta Phi .

Enrollment at St ate College rea ched it s p ea k at the opening of th e t9 49-5 0 term with 4,738 stud ent s reg iste red , an increase of 250 over last year. Th e f ac ulty co nsists of 254 m ember s.

With an eye to th e future , President Walter R H ep ne r is ca rry ing out plans for the $2,500,000 co n s tru ct Ion program granted by the State Leg· islaturc. A future building program of S4,640,000 was decided upon by the Regents of the University of California and the State Board of Edu ca tion to relieve the overcrowded con· dition s.

San Diego ca mpus is built on a mesa , s urrounded by ca nyon s with a beautiful back· ground of mountains Its Spanish style architecture is patterned after that found in the region between Catalonia and Valenci a, in Spain , where Moorish influence is predominant. Newest add ition to the campus is an Arts and Crafts building, located on the north side of the ca nyon ft too , is in keeping with the white stucco, red tiled roofing of the other buildings. A library annex was constructed during the s ummer months , allowing adequate capacity for s helving over 125,000 volumes. Future plans include the building of dormitories for men and women.

Today , the Ba chelor of Arts degree is offered in 20 fields with 19 credentials offered by the Edu cation Department. A Bachelor of Science degree is a lso offered Last year, the State legislature passed a bill making it possible for the Master of A rts degree to be granted in Education. The co llege is acc redited by the Northwe st Association of Colleges for Teacher Edu cation . Ca lifornia E dlapter of Pi Beta Phi extends to all members of the fraternity an invitation to visit its group at any time

Alabama Beta Installation

PI PHI BETA COLONY was organized at the University of Alabama in October of 1948. Ru sh activities were conducted under the guidance of Marianne Reid Wild, Grand VicePresident, and Helen Anderson Lewis, Delta Province President. They were assisted by the members of the Birmingham Alumnae Club and seven representatives from Kansas, and Louisiana. Members of Alabama A also aided the group.

Forty girls pledged to Pi Phi Beta on October 24. During the year five left school and one was pledged. The five members of the Advisory Committee under the chairmanship of Zoe Saunders lames are from the Birmingham Alumnre Club. These women have given invaluable assistance and inspiration to the colony.

Pi Phi Beta boasted of having its members included in most of the campus organizations, and it took part in all traditional activities of the University. Pershing RiBes, an honorary

R.O.T.C. unit, chose a Pi Phi for its first sponsor in the history of the corps. The colony won second place in the Homecoming house decorations competition. Two of the girls were chosen yearbook beauties by the men on the campus . The office of second vice-president of the Y.W.C.A. was won by Pi Phi in the yearly election held in February. The colony participated in Step Singing and placed among the four finalists. Nine of the members were elected to Triangle, women's service organization. Various members held positions of responsibility in other campus organizations and were numbered among the governing bodies of the dormitories. Several of the girls were honored by the fraternities in the lead outs of their annual formal balls. Pi Phi also won lirst place in the Wheelbarrow Race at the Sigma Chi D erby, and one of the girls was named Miss Pie Eater at the Barna Day carnival contest.

The Installation

After having been a colony for a year, Pi province president .nd vice.president, along Phi Beta was officially installed as the newest with representatives from Alabama A, Georgia chapter of Pi Beta Phi on September 19, 1949 A, and Florida B were present for the occasion. Alabama B was privileged to have Miss Onken Pledging took place on September 18 after officiate at the pledging, initiation, and instal- which was held a buffet supper. Following the lation ceremonies. Mrs . Tyler and Mrs. Bartlett, initiation ceremony on September 19, a banquet

was held at the McLester Hotel. At the banquet the Birmingham Alumn", Club presented each new initiate with Pi Beta Phi stationery. The afternoon of September 20 they also honored Alabama B wi th a reception to which faculty, administration, and representatives from cam·

pus organizations were invited. The chapter received numerous gifts , telegrams, and notes of congratulations from Pi Beta Phis throughout the country . Also flowers were se nt from many of the sororities and fraternities on campus.

The Campus

The University of Alabam a, the home of the newest chapter of Pi Beta Phi , was founded in 1831. Co-education was introduced in 1893 when two young ladies were admitted. The University grounds, immediately adjacent to the city of Tuscaloosa, comprise approximately 420 acres. ]0 addition, the Northington campus, consisting of 150 a c res, is an annex to the main campus and is situated abou t two miles from the campus . University cente rs are maintained in Birm ingham, Montgomery, Mobile, and Gadsden.

The buildings On campus include eighteen for classroom use, the Administration Building . the Union Buildin g, Foster Audit orium, and three gymnasiums. The Union Building houses the Supply Store, the College Inn , the publications, the student government offices, and radio station WABP.

There are seve ntee n dormitories for men, and ten for the women. The campus also holds twenty·five fraternity houses and seventeen sorority houses. There are four University dining halls.

The architecture of the campus follows the

lines of Colonial design , and gives an appearance of continuity to the scene. The buildings are attra ctively arranged around a quadrangle, in the center of which is located Denny Chimes.

The fraternities at the University of Al abama are as follows : Delta Kappa Epsilon, Phi Gamma D elta, Sigma Alpha Epsilon, Kapp a Sigma, Sigma Nu , Sigma Chi, Phi Delta Theta , Al pha Tau Omega , K appa Alpha , Phi Kapp a Sigma, Zeta Beta Tau, Lambda Chi Alph a, Pi Kappa Phi, Sigma Alpha Mu, Chi Phi , K appa Nu, Phi Sigma K appa , Pi K appa Alpha , Delta Tau Delta , Theta Chi , Sigma Phi Epsi . lon , Delta C hi , Theta Xi, Delta Sigma Phi, and Alpha Epsilon Pi.

The sororities include: Delta Delta Delta, Kappa Delta , Alpha D e lt a Pi, Zeta Tau Alpha , Alpha Gamma Delta, Chi Omega , Delta Zeta , Alpha Chi Omega, Sigma Delta Tau , Alpha Xi Delta, K appa K appa Gamma, Ph i Mu , Theta Upsilon , Alpha Epsilon Phi , Alpha Phi , and Delta Gamma. Pi Beta Phi rep resents the seventeen th sorority On the campus.

THF FUTURE OF SO RORITIES " One of the most encouraging fa ctors in the whole sorority problem is the understanding of hum an problems and the serious weighing of values that go on in man y groups . In man),. many schools- perhaps in small co ll eges rather more than in g reat universities- there is most careful thought and co n sideration give n to the possibility of taking in those people who have expressed a desire to become members. It is most encouraging to note the strides that are be ing made as the woman of today seeks to recon c ile sel ective grouping to her principles of democratic livin g. The future of sororities depends largely upon their ab ility to retain the great value of unity within the g ro up-whi ch demands se lectivity based on like va lu es and harmonious relationships-in a situation that is essentially democ r atic. It is a difficult problem , but one that can be worked out."

Santa Barbara Pledging

A. REA COUNC I L, representing the Alumna! n Clubs from Santa Barbara to San Diego , held formal pledging ceremonies for forty-three members of £l. Z of Santa Barbara College of the University of California at the chapter house of California at U .C. L.A. on September 6, 1949.

It was a perfect day from beginning to end. Rosali e Sloan, President of Area Council and her committee chairmen had planned every· thing down to the last detail to make it a happy and successful occasion. From the moment of arrival at 10 A.M. until it was time to leave at 8 o'clock, the day was full of happy experiences. There was the joy of renewal of old friendships and the beginning of new ones, the beautiful solem nity of the pledging ce remony with Lois Finger, Former Grand Secretary, officiating, the feeling of pride in adding such a splendid group to the Pi Phi roster, the fun in

meeting the U.C.L.A. actives, whose warm friendliness did so much to make the new pledges feel at home, and the joy of again visiting the beautiful chapter house of California a.

A cooky-shine followed with eighty Pi Phis and pledges sitting down to a delicious dinner and the fun of 'lnging Pi Phi songs together. There were words of welcome from the presi· dents of California [' and California from Lois Finger, and from Jane Wentz, and Virginia Allred representing the Santa Barbara Club and an incomparable talk by Adele Alford representing Grand Council.

Actives and pledges then slipp ed away to get into formals, for through Anne d' Aule whose husband is an :£ A E, they had all been invited to attend the ball at the Biltmore, following the concl usion of the A E convention in Los Angeles.

HOLT HOUSE

By the time you read this article it will be more appropriate to send you all a "Mercy ChrIStmas" from Holt Ho use-b ut having just return ed from Monmouth , in what is my favor· ite season of the year, I can't resist writing of its beauty in an autumn setting.

The trees, beautiful at any t im e of the year, were riotous with co lor , and seemed a fitting welcome to the troops of girls attending the fall rushing parties at the house. The house itself, a year older, gleams from new paint on the outSide and radiates suc h warmth and friendliness that one feels at home instantly upon entering the front door.

New braided rugs in wine and blue have been added to the Pine Room . In the dining room are some new pieces of antique glass and silver, and the kitchen has been freshly painted In the upstairs lounge a set of hanging pine t61

shelves lined with copper for planting complements the blu e and white of the wallpaper and draperies.

The Buclington , Iowa, Alum= Club has presented the Committee with a check to be used foc a hooked rug for the parlor. It will be/resented in memory of Edna Uhler Gilman an Mrs Clay Waite. Mrs. Gilman was for many years an active member of the Holt House Committee.

During the summer Mrs Nancy Bechtol and Mr. Paul Wallace presented the house with trellises and climbing roses in memory of their cous in and mother. Nancy Bla ck Wallace, Founder. This restores the exterior of the hOllse to its origi nal appearance.

The Pan Pacific W o:m.en' s Conference

Honolulu, July 'J.7 to Aug. 3, 1949

UNDER the benevolent gavel and friendly smile of Josephine Schain, Minn. A, members of the Pan Pacific Women's Association and guests made friendships and bridged a gap of work left suspended, if not interrupted, during the twelve years since the last conference, From len countries (Australia. China, India, Korea, Japan, New Zealand, Philippines, Samoa, Hawaii and the Mainland of the USA) lifty-three delegates met in Honolulu for two weeks studying problems of the Pacilic area, and reports were also heard from a representative of India, altho' that is not technically a part of the Pacilic. Appropriately, the conference was held in Punahou School, for the sessions were educational in the broadest sense. Each morning the delegates and visitors heard first hand reports of conditions in each country

on the subject at hand, Food and Agriculture, Health, Education for International Understanding and the Status of Women. Afternoons were devoted to small round table groups, limited to delegates, where efforts were made to evaluate the material heard that morning, and to layout a constructive program, to spdl out means of improving conditions, or put into operation the program of UN.

Part of the success of the conference was due to the "living together" made possible by the use of the dormitory of Punahou, and the beautiful social functions of hospitable Hawaii. The experience emphasi2ed what most of us have learned on other similar occasions , namely, that if individuals live and talk and play together the differences vanish, and the deeper more im· portant universal human qualities unify, and encourage a hope for universal peace. This was also one of the contributions of the Conference on East-West philosophy which was conducted at the University of Hawaii during the summer session, and which the PPWC was invited to attend. These learned philosophers could have proliled by the keen observations made by tbe PPWC delegate from Korea, who reported to the Women's Conference on the restrictions im· posed on progress in her country. especially on young people and the home by the old cults of Buddhism and Shintoism, remarks which sounded like a different story from those propounded in mystic words by the philosophers.

The PPWC concluded that the perspective for understanding world prohlems would be enlarged through realization that countries can work together; that with the knowledge acquired through first hand contact members should guide others toward improving world conditions. An ambitious program of study was outlined for the interval between conventions, new officers were chosen, and plans were laid for a journal. or some less ambitious means of keeping members acquainted with local branches until the next Conference in New Zealand in 19' 1.

Pi Beta Pbi was well represented at this Conference. In addition to Miss Schain who will be President next year, Muriel James Bergstrom (Michigan B and California A) was treasurer for the conference , Dorothy Maclaren Anderson (Penn. A) Ex. Sec_ Mental Health Soc., was one of the resource experts, 162

Dorothy Houghton (Iowa r) was one o f the ddegates from the mainland, selected to give an address at one of the opening sessions, an address that was beautiful and inspiring . Mrs. Houghton is now Vice ·Pres. of the Gen· eral Federation of Women ' s Clubs, and will be President next year Gladys Campbell Blakey (lUinois t.) was a delegate from the Mainland, although she has been in Hawaii for six months, and spoke at one of the Panels on Status of Women , as progressing through the UN Com· mission . Honolulu Pi Phis hooored Josephine Seh ain at a beautiful tea at a home overlooking th e city

and the ocean , inviting rep resentati v es of other [raternities and girls who were going to mainland colleges io th e fall, so that they would know Pi Phi.

It is hoped that the work of the PPWC will be more widely known throughout the U.S Units are to be organized in the middle west and on the Pacihc coast; the internat ional office will be in New York city, as that is the residence of Miss Sehain. Doubtless she would be happy to hear from Pi Phis who would enjoy lhe inspiration and knowledge that comes from working in su ch an organization for con s tructive in ternational relations.

Emma Harper Turner Memorial Fund

WE ARE now three years old for it was at Convention , in June 1946, that "0,000 was transferred from the Contingent Fund to the Emma Harper Turner Memorial Fund.

That $50,000 has gone to work . The $'0, 000 principal of the fund is being used for chapter house building loans, and the interest is being used for assistance to needy members of the Fraternity.

You undoubtedly know that chapters of Pi Beta Phi often find it necessary to request assistan ce from fraternity resources to help them build adequate chapter houses , but do I hear you gasp at our mention of needy Pi Phis?

It is tcue that we have found and are help. ing members of oJ.1r Fraternity who, through misfortune of ill health, etc., are DO longer able to help themselves. All of them are Pi Phis, much the same as you and I are Pi Phis. Some of them have, through past long, varied and eminently successful careers contributed much to justify the existence of our Fraternity,

Our rules are few. Send referrals for assist· ance to this committee. The need for approval from the president of the nearest alum"", dub is a safeguard to our work which we believe fair

to the Fraternity . For the record. we require two endorsements. We do not wish the individual need of the case discussed in any meeting Or made conspicuous. Our own findings are contidential and known only to the three members of this committee and to Grand Council.

The maximum gift to anyone person during anyone year is $180 00 which may be paid in lump sum or divided and paid in twelve monthly gifts. It may not be considered as income. It is strictly a gift. It is strictly important that we bestow our gift in a manner which will not jeopardize the recipient's eligibility for any aid from City, County, State, or Federal agencies.

This fund is a part of Pi Beta Phi. You, as a Pi Phi, have the privileged responsibility of bringing a little physical comfort and morale uplift to another member by quietly making application to this committee for a financial gift to someone you know to be in need of mOre than her own resources can provide.

Your cooperation will be greatly appreciated in our effort to use the available funds to gladden and lift a Pi Phi heart.

Pi Phi II Angels 11

AVARlATION on that beloved theme, "A Pi Phi Is an Angel in Disguise," is provided in a project of the Kansas City, Missouri Alumn", Club, whose members have brought to earth a sisterhood of little angels disguised as Pi Phis. They are ceramic figurines, so sweetly sentimental in their wine and blue and gold raiment that they are bidding to become a Pi Phi trademark.

Kansas City alumn", began selling these Pi Phi angel s two years ago as a local fund-raising device, hoping the sales might furnish a modest nest egg for that universally poor celation. the ways and means committee. Within a matter of months, word of the angeli c charmers had spread, and orders began coming in from chapter houses and alumn.e dubs alJ over the country. The nest egg now promises to reach a size to suit an ostrich !

Artist Margaret Mitchell originated the angels and makes them in her Kansas City studio. They are pledged exclusively to Pi Beta Phi. Mrs. Mitchell's professional signature , "M.E.M. ," has blue-ribbon (onnotations wherever tine cerami cs are sold; to these Pi Phi sprites she has brought a special skill and tenderness. They are hand crafted in exquisite

tints with an affectionate artistry that gives each perky little angel a personality all her own. You may have seen Phoebe , pint-sized and pigtailed, her long blue robe failing to conceal one irrepressible bare foot beating out a Pi Phi polka. Polly the Pepster is a cheer-leader , modeUed in the middle of a rollicking "RingChing·Ching." Pretty Penelope stands serenely with her secret-a bell tinkles beneath her rufHed skirt. Two new a.ngels, introduced last spring, are Barbara, the curly-haired initiate who is-quite literally-making her bow to the membership, and Belinda, the very essence of the sweet girl graduate as she happily clasps her eli ploma.

From a celestial cooky·shine, they come, in their Bowing pale blue dresses. Golden Pi Phi arrows glimmer above their hearts; their fat little halos and sprouts of wings, they wear as nonchalantly as old saddle shoes. Each displays the wine carnation, sometimes sprigged calicowise over her dress, sometimes clutched proudly in her hand.

Pi Phis like them for aU sorts of purposes. An iUinois chapter ordered one for each of fifteen new members as initiation gifts. A New York chapter bought a big boxful for a Christ-

NEWS FROM LITTLE PIGEON

Edited by HARRIET GOODSELL RAUCH, I owa B

A Day at School

Seven bicycles were parked near the door a nd a brown dog of doubtful parentage was resting on the cinder driveway waiting for his master. As we came up the steps, there was that drone of voices, the noise that comes from open windows of most any elementary school. We were visiting the Pi Beta Phi Schools in Gatlinburg

We walked into a second and third grade room because the door stood open and we could see six vacant seats. Miss Latham, the teacher, was giving reading·readiness tests to the second graders and comprehension tests to the third graders . After greeting us , she said,

"I have six abstntees, all boys . It's a seasonal djsea.se." We pondered over an unusual epi· demic that affected boys only. She laughed, "Oh, nothing serious. Fishing .season opened to-day." It was May 16th and we noti ced that it was bare·foot season for some of the boys, too.

The walls were plastered with individual reading records. Bird stickers were used instead of stars to mark accomplishment. The reading tests continued and we were quietly infonned that the results would point up certain weaknesses, for example: the need for emphasis on paragraph comprehension, more emphasis on

word m ean ings, emphasis on word recognition technique.

Since it was an important test day, we moved on to the fourth grade. There were forty en· rolled in this grade-seven absentees because of the 'fishing epidemic: On three walls, in addition to the 'Books I Have Read' and the 'Books Are Friends' charts, there were elaborate health study charts and bla ck·board exhibits of protective and energy foods. We were just in time for geography class from the blue·backed book , 'Journeys Through Many Lands: The upper halves of the blackboards were covered with a series of murals called 'Singing Wheels' beginning with the stage coach continuing through to the river boat. These had been made by the children and it was creditable pastel chalk work for fourth graders.

After brushing up a bit on our fourth grade geography, we wa ndered into Miss CardweU's first grade room, Her thirty·seven youngsters were divided in to four groups for recitation and driU , grouped according to ability, She was drilling nin e children with some 8ash cards of her own making when we entered. The study p rogram for the year was in line ( in a way)

with the Tennessee State Conservation program -study of trees and leaves of trees in the fall and winter. In the spring, study was devoted to birds. While we were there, they were reading about or drawing or co loring some of the use· ful birds: the indigo bunting, yellow warhler, oriole, cardi nal and Bi cke r, The good old reo ward system was evidenced by stars affixed to individual reading and spelling charts.

One little red·headed, freckle· faced boy, dressed in 'spanking' dean overalls was leaning over his desk directing the colo rin g done by a pretty little hlonde girl. He was satisfied only now and then with her technique but she followed his directions without qu est ion. He was blissfully happy to let her do the work while he gave the directions - a budding exec· utive, no doubt.

The local Parent Teacher Association runs the cafeteria in the basement of our much over· crowded elementary school. About two-hun· dred.and.forty children have lunch there every day and because of the lack of space are fed in fo ur shifts. Some sixty children are given their lun ch fre e, The others pay fifteen ce nts per lun ch, Th e c ramped quarters were made as

attractive as possible. Hand-made pottery bowls filled with acrangemCflts of wild honey- suckl e and field-grown daisies were in the centers of the bench -like tables Steaming and deli ciouslooking corn pudding, I resh string beans , compote of dried peaches and prunes , peanut butter sandwi c hes and milk nu de up th e lun cheon (or that day .

After lun c h we vi , ited Sue Kelly's third grade . These young sters were studying mountain birds froln material furnished by the Tennessee Conservation department. The children had made their own booklets, writing a story about each bird describing his color, his nest , the eggs, his song. his winter and summer home. In a peong of the tulip tree just outside the window of this room, a pair of robins had built a nest in the early spring. These thirdgraders had watched and protected the nest at play-time until the babies had flown. Since Gatlinburg is situated so near the Cherokee Indian Reservation, the winter project had been an Indian one.

So our trip through the elementary school was not unlike a trip through any elementary school except that because of Pi Phi help the program offered is so much richer than the County alone could possibly offer. Among other things <as Pi Phis know) we provide the Art and Craft teacher for the elementary and High school. We are very proud indeed of the work our Fay Van Roekel is doing in the school and community. We visited her sixth grade art class. Thirty·seven boys and girls were working with charcoal that day. She had begun charcoal work with them in the fall when they used pine trees as models which gave her the opportunity to stress l ight :lnd dark contrasts and to insist on free easy strokes with no fussy details.

By May these sixth graders had progressed to posed models_ She used three models that period: a boy swinging a baseball bat, a boy shadow.boxing, a girl hoeing in an imaginary garden. She said, "Now five minutes for the first pose. Work last. Remember that prolessional models are well paid . Make your strokes light. Draw quickly. Draw with a sweep with charcoal. Sketch in good strong lines. Then shade. Always keep in mind the possibilities of charcoal." There was rapt interest and com· plete absorption in the work and the only sound heard was the sweep of the charcoal on the paper.

Fay's classes are all carrying on various proj· eets at the craft house. She told the committee that she was very pleased with the equipment provided by Pi Phi but her main problem is lack of space, storage space for projects and

equipment, the crying need for our elementary S<..hool from all sides.

High school was in its near·graduation time confusion . The senior class was getting ready for its annual trip that their hard-earned money

had made possible. They made this money by selling candy and cold drinks at games, selling Christmas cards and wrappings, selling ads for the Senior play and ticket sale receipts from their play. Pi Phi coach Joe Johnson was taking them to historic Williamsburg and including a visit to the Navy and Marine bases at Nor· folk. Coach Johnson and Mrs. Mines (our Assistant director at the Settlement School) had been co-sponsors 01 the 1949 senior class. Mrs. Armstrong, the Pi Phi music teacher, having just finished a successful grade school operetta, was polishing glee club and chorus work for the graduation festivities. Mrs. Lighter, the English teacher and librarian was checking over final poetry reports for the year. Every room in the building was teeming with winding.up activities.

As we walked from the school, it was afternOOn recess time. The girls were playing 'hopscotch.' Two solt-ball games were in full swing in the field behind Arrowcraft building. There was no professional call such as, 'in comes the pitch. It's high and out-side for ball one' but the excitement and din seemed almost as deaf· ening as a world series event. As we started toward Teachers Cottage, Pi Phi nurse Chalmers drove up in her car and called, "hop in

and ride up to the glades with me. rm taking a boy home. No real damage but he has a 'shiner' coming up. He was hit in the eye with the soft ball: '

We rode away with Marjorie, waved to Arlie, Pi Phi bandi·man, who was plowing potatoes in the field behind Health Center and noticed

two weavers who were going into Arcowcraft with their arms laden with finished weaving. How proud we can be of the school-health-craft work at our Settlement School, all made possible by the continued help of Pi Phis from every part of the country.

State Mother for Massachusetts

IT WAS a wonderful thrill for a Malden woman, lying in considerable pain in Malden Hospital, to learn that she had been selected as State Mother for Massachusetts to compete for the title of "American Mothe< of 1949 ."

Mrs. Ethel Piper, Massachusetts A, known affectionately as "mother" by scoreS of young men and women she has aided and by children she has brought up, could scarcely believe the news . So doubtful was she of the honor that she had her sister, Edith Piper, confirm it from the Golden Rule Foundation, who made the selection.

Sixty-five years old, Mrs. Avery had lain immobile in a bed in Malden Hospital since she fractured her collar-bone in the garden of her home 10 days earlier. (Date of th is clipping not given-ALC)

Mrs. Avery , whose husband is Alfred H. Avery, has two grown-up children of her own, Dr. Harlow Fuller Avery of Milwaukee Ch il-

dren's Hospital, and Faith Avery, a graduate of Syracuse University, who is working in the medical branch of the University. But Mrs Avery has mothered children other than her own. In her home, at present, are two British youngsters, brother and sister, Elizabeth Denstad, 18, and David, 16, who came to her during the London blitz and stayed On. Students from China, India and Hawaii, as well as from Europe, have also stayed with her and been aided in education for Christian Leadership. In order to do this , Dr. and Mrs. Avery established a fund caUed the Parshad Holding Corporation, the first name of which means "Gift of God," to help young people through college.

Born in Boston and educated in schools here, she received her A .B. degree: from Boston University in 1906 and then taught in schools in Kittery, Maine, Attleboro and Lexington Afte r her marriage in 1913, she and her husband further developed their interest in young people and worked closely with the American Youth Foundation and International Council of Religious Edu cation, giving many scholarships tho ugh these organizations .

H er husband . co-partner with her in these enterprises, is a well -known Methodist layman. scientist and industrialist. He is a retired execu tive of the duPont Company and chairman of the North Ameri ca n Holding Co . He planned his life to devote the first 25 years to getti ng the best edu catio n possibl e, the next 15 years to making a fortune, and thereafter to retire and devote his fortune to philanthropy. Mrs. Avery modestly cites her husband to illustrate what they wanted out of life and what they wanted to give. And they have done both. In 1946 Mr. Avery was named winner of the national Russe ll Colgate distinguished service citation by 1261 laym en and women of the United States and Canada.

Like many people who have done so much for others Mrs. Avery is publicly shy, but she does not disguise he r happiness in being selected " State Mother of Massachusetts. "

FROM PI PHI PENS

Ediled by MARY ELIZABETH BARN ETIE, Ohio A

PHYLLIS CRAWFORD, Ui'l Go, Henry Holt and Company, 73 pp.

Dedi ca ted for "Joan and Peter," this liv e ly book should be the delight of all the Joans and Peters whose Pi Phi mothers learn ()f its existence. These mothers, and dads too, may find to their joy that it has a salutary effect upon those small beings whose clamorings of "Do hurry" and "Let's go" are anathema to the slower moving adult.

However, the skill of Phyllis Crawford, the author, has seen to It that the moral 15 neither too serious nor too obvious to spoil the pleasure of five to eight-year-old readers. "Let's Go" will intrigue and stimulate their imaginations as well as encourage their vocabulary.

It would be a pity to destroy all the suspense by revealing the story in its entirety, but a little of it will guide parents in making their book purchases this year .

Tom, the hero of the tale, is, not unlike many of his contemporaries, always in a hurry, ever urging hi s parents on, pulling up his carrots as soon as thei r tops appear above g round, and never walking if he can run instead.

It seems not at all unbelievable, therefore, when a patch of quicksand takes him to the land of "Quick" where everyone rushes and everything grows big and fast. There Tom meets Mr. Long, whose name aptly describes him and who uses exceedingly long words to matc h. Here, in a reversal of the usual state of affairs, Tom finds it hard work to keep up with everyone else.

How he gets back home and what effect his experience has upon him you will find in your own reading of "Let's Go."

AUTHOR INTEREST: "'Hello, Th e Boat!;" "Last Semeste r," "Second Shift," " The Secret Broth er," and "The Blot : Little City Cat" are among the other juvenile books written by Phyllis Crawford, Virginia A. "Let's Go" is the first book this native of Little Rock and now resident of New York has done since 1943, for she took time out to do editorial work. She writes that it is her first attempt at fantasy, but the reader soon discovers that that has not prevented the job from being well done.

AGNES WRIGHT SPRING, The Che),enne and Black Hill, Siage alld Expre" ROlllel, The Arthur H. Clark Company, 418 pp.

Greeted by critics as "a book for all lovers of western Americana to keep" and " not only an amaZingly good research job but a colorful and vivid piece of writing," Mrs. Spring's latest study of earlier days in the West covers the Black Hills' gold rush period of between 1874 and the mid 1880's.

It is not a work of fiction, and, in fact, Mrs . Spring spent much time in the terri tory and on the trails, retracing these early stage routes aDd sifting the fiction from the fact SO as to produce a comp letely authoritative book.

Despite the fact, however, that the book is a reference one primarily, its subject material makes it an adventuresome o ne to read. This is because in addition to recording the precise details of the various routes from Cheyenne into the Black Hills, she also includes the human e lement and reports on the activities and roman· tic experiences of the stage drivers, owners and messengers in their enco unters with swollen rivers, Indian attacks, blizzards and hold-ups by the scores of bandi ts who preyed upon those traveling the route.

There are, in addition, plentiful illustrations, a fold out map of the routes prepared by the author, an extensive bibliography, and numer· ow appendices.

AUTHOR INTEREST : One time editor of the ARROW, Wyoming A's Mrs. Spring is indeed the proper person to write a book such as this, for being the daughter of a pioneer Colorado and Wyoming stage owner, she knows the subject from first hand observation . After g rowing up on a Wyoming ranch , she attended the University of Wyoming and following graduation studied journalism at Colum· bia. She's the former state librarian and his· torian of Wyoming and has written several other books which have been reviewed here.

FLORENCE ZACHARIE ELLIS NICHOLLS, BUIIon Hand Book, privately published, 128 pp.

This is a book written for a specialized audi· ence, antique button collecto rs , but even to the layman it is evident that Mrs Nicholls has 17l

made a valuable contribution to her colleagues in the field. Complete with illustrations of over a thousand buttons together with brief but precise descriptions and approximate evaluations, the volume represents painstaking work.

Hobbies are uniquely satisfying, stimulating, and worthy of one's time, this book seems to say to everyone whether interested in buttons, bottles, or book s.

This book has been mentioned in the ARROW before but we repeat this in case new buttons collector's missed the several-year old review.

AUTHOR INTEREST : Mrs. Jesse C. Ni cholls, a graduate of Sophie Newcomb, class of 1898, and a member of Loui s iana A, now Jives in Ithaca, New York, where she pursues her hobby of antique co llect ing with emphasis on buttons in rece nt years. In addition to her book she has published three supplements covering some 1500 other buttons. Always an enthusias tic Pi Phi, she has taken special interest in New York t. at Cornell.

Impressive indeed was the ce remony in Fort Wayne when Helene Foellinger, Illinois Z, presented the city with the News-Sentinel Outdoor theatre in Francke Park on behalf of the Directors of the newspaper of which her father was long the editor and publisher , and of which Helene is herself now publisher. The theatre is an interesting $100,000 structure, and the dedicatory program was the Fort Wayne Philharmonic Orchestra, with Eugene List as soloist. Present at the ceremony was Miss Foellingers' sister, Loretta Foetlinger Teeple, also Illinois Z.

Through an interesting scrap book and a log of her trip, Barbara passed on to the chapter ma ny helpful suggestions gained through conferences on all phascs of fraternity life

M'ny Pi Phis were busy this summer working on freshman orient.lion .ctivities both on .nd off campw. Billie Be. Hull , Helen R.ihle, M.rlys M orill, .nd B. J. G.mmel served as cou nsel ors .t the fre shman camp. Bilfie Bea and Janna Oppegaard acted as group sponsors of freshman orientation.

Both town and h ouse girls were over the changd made in the chapte r h ouse and grounds during the summer.

T he front and back lawns were completely resodded, and shrobbery borde ring the house WI5 planted.

Working under a "three year" plan, the Hou se Bond undertook partial refu rnishinlt of the bedrooms and the dining room. Bl ond oak lamps, desksh and burelUS added a to uc h to the bedrooms, wile yellow .nd grey chain brigh tened the dining room. Next yea r; the bedrooms and dining room will be redone. thiTQ year will be dev oted to refurnishing the l iving room.

During thc open house leu, rushees were escorted in groups of twenty 10 every house , by a rushing counselor who was not allowed to wear her p in. Running on a time schedule, this plan enlb l ed the rushees to b«ome better aC<I,uainted with the members of the indiv id ual sororities Ind vice versa.

Parties during the rest of the week were invitational, SO the systcm co uld not be carried out 10 a greater extent.
