Arrow Editorial

May Lansfield Keller

" There's more to life than pipes," quipped May Lansfield Keller at 85 to a newspaper interviewer. Irreve rant and unrelated as it mi g ht sound lifted as it is from co nt ext- that statement hold s much of th e kee n insight, perceptive wi sdom , peppery wi t and total approach to life that May Keller embodi ed in ove r foU[ deca de s o f enthusi as ti c livi ng.

She made the sta teme nt as she co nclud ed a comment on the va l ue of studyin g the classics in today's world a nd had op ined that some peop le don't rea lly need the classics but if the y studied them, the y would ha ve a ri cher life a nd ad d ed , " I wouldn 't make a plumber study th e classics but he' d enjoy l ife mo rc if he did- there's more to life than pi pes."

Th e re was much to May L. Keller's l ife-mu ch that had to do with meet ing chall enge with s harpness and reso l ve-t hat was filled with progress and grow th in the fi eld s of education- th at was bound up with the en joymen t o f hum an associa ti o n with persons of all ages. Sh e was a brilliant st ud e nt of th e classics and an equally g ifted translator of th e ir wisdom and d ept h in re lation to the nee ds o f th e present .

She has been characte rized as a "pi o nee r" and in th e se nse th at it mean s "e xp lo re in th e ad vance of othe rs," th is tiny woman with th e g reat min d and magnificent determination was just th at in an era when women began fi rst to move from need lepoint and small talk to quests for inte ll ectual enrichm ent and opportunities for civic service.

Her tenacity of spirit ga ined h e r a splendid education and guided her in the drive to provide that same qua l ity of educat io n for o th e rs . A s the first woman dean in V i rginia, she h e l ped bui ld Westhampton Co ll ege of th e University of Ri chmond to an e nviable statu re. She used he r brilliant mind , determined will and warm wisdom to their fu ll est in that successfu l endeavor.

She shared th e talents of h er mind and perceptive ins ig ht with h e r fraternity as Grand Pr es id ent [or ten yea rs and as a devoted me mber for over six decades . lt is understandable that durin g her tenure as Gra nd President Pi Be ta Phi moved out bo ldl y in a unique ph ilanthropic undertaking in the f raternity wo rld , its Settlement School.

Dr. Ke ll e r was an individua li st in the finest sense of the term in that she p resevered as one not for the sake of being different but for the purpose of living by th e strength of her convictions and pursuing goa ls marked by exce llence and potential for lasting achievement.

Her legacy to Pi Beta Ph i sisters of today and tomorrow is a rich and lasting one built on the solid 2

g round of intellectual ru n oslty and growth , dedicat ion to worthy purposes and a hea l thy respect for life's co nstant wonder and ch all enge . - DDS

Centennial Project

Less th an s ix hundr ed Pi Phi s were on h and in Vi cto ria whe n Pi Beta Phi adop ted as its Cente nnial Proj ect th e deve lopm ent o f a n Art s and Crafts Center at Gatlinburg. Multi p ly that number by lOO and you will have the numbe r of P i Phi s it will J take to bring the project int o successful rea lity. ,

Over 60,000 members of the fraternity will rece ive this issue of THE ARR ow- and if all o f those take th e time to co nsid er the information i t co n · tains rega rdin g the project we should ha ve a so lid star t toward it s rea liz ation .

With the se lect io n of th e project, Pi Beta Phi now h eads into three busy yea rs. Th e Settlement School project is sti ll being ca rr ied o n a nd w ill be during that period for the most part. It will be necessary for ch apters and clubs to co ntinu e their s up po rt of this p h ilanth ropy throug h g ifts and loca l projects as they have in the past if we are to h ave a s moo th trans iti on in the area of o ur phil anthropi c undertaking

At th e same time the Centennia l Fund Co mmi tt ee will be stepp in g up its ca mpaig n to info rm the fraternity o f th e fin ancia l needs of the new project and of th e ini tia l p lann ing in rega rd to its deve lopment.

Both of these comm ittees will need the full an d consiste nt support of the fraternity at large as they work toward the estab l is hm e nt of a new type of p hil ant h rop ic p roject at Gatlinburg.

One can't give this kind of support without bel ieving in a project- and to be li eve we must info rm ourselves and give some reflective thought to what we h ave learned regarding th is development in our fraternity program .

Mu ch backgroun d information on the Art s and Crafts Cente r ca n be found in this ARROW'S co nvention report sectio n- in the message from the Centennia l Fund Committee-and there is also news of th e co nt in uing service of Settlement Schoo l.

We urge your consideratio n of thi s material and that whi ch will be fo rth coming in future issues of TH E ARROW. Fo r th e second time in a centu ry Pi Beta Ph i has the env iabl e p rivi lege of establis hin g a philanthropic project filled with the in herent challen ge of the forward dimension. An enlightened , convi nced membe rship will be the key factor in meeting th at c hall enge in the finest tradition of ou r fraternity-the tradition of service as it rel ates to education and social concern .-DDS

DON'T SHOOT SISTERS-arrows o r whatever it is you may have at hand when you discover no pic· ture section in this issue of THE ARROW. The editor has an explanation- she ran out, of room.

If you should decide to loose a barrage , I think I will be safe if I just crawl in fhe file behind the bulging folders of campus leaders, Mortar Boards, and queens and sweethearts.

Current plans are to use all of these pictures on hand in the winter issue of the magazine and your patience until then will be appreciated.

PICTURES OF ANOTHER SORT that we had in abundance for this issue were those taken at Conven· tion by the offi cial photographe r, Pete Olapman. The abundance was the resu lt of a tradition-breaking gift from Mr. Chapman to THE ARRow- a ll of th e convention story pictures used were provided without cost , by his firm, Chapman Photography of Victoria.

OUf benefactor says he "very much enjoyed the assignment- and the abundance of natural beauty and charm at your convention was extremely inspiring." The fact that the young photographer, not without hi s own c harm , is a bachelor just might have somet hin g to do with this "inspiration."

Pete C h apman is building his business by dint of hard work and unusually cou rt eous service. He says it is sti ll a struggle but I'v e no doubt he will win that tussle and am su re many a Pi Phi who was on hand at Vi ctoria will join me in wishing him well and thanking him for his unusual generosity in our regard.

CONVENTION REPORTS TO CLUBS AND CHAPTERS were conside rabl y easier for many a delegate because of the hard work of the Convention Daily staff at the 44th biennial national gathering of Pi Phis .

Capable, talented, thorough, accommodating and a handful of other complimentary tags would be needed to describe adequately the permanent staff- Editor Ruth Loui se "Wootie" Dierks, As sistant Editor, Carole Pfaff Hibbard and Business Manager Ruby White Traill. They missed virtually all of the Conven· tion sessions and a good portion of its fun to see th at a comp lete record of the happenings at Vi ctor ia was set down in the five issues of the Daily. ,,'

There is no doubt in my mind that this expression of sincere appreciation to them for their splendid contributi on has already been seconded many times by convention goe rs and those who cou ld not go but who have gained a picture of its daily happenin gs throllgh the Dai/y.

THE VOLUNTEER SERVICE on which a fraternity is built asks much of it s officers frQm chap ter to Grand Council. Virginia Voorhees Speaker was one who gave willingly and generously a ll that was asked of her during her decade of service to Pi Beta Phi as Grand Secretary. Her office demanded close attent ion to detail and was filled with the tedium of record keeping. She met those demands with c heerfulness, efficiency, and faithfulness. Her willingness to g ive of her time in other areas was pointed up graphi ca lly at the Conve nti on banquet when delegates of chapters she had helped install gathered to pay her specia l tribute on behalf of the fraternity. Surely there could have been no more fitting symbo l of a sister's loyal and untiring se rvice than that embodied by young ladies rep resenting the new links she had helped forge in the ever-growing circle of Pi Phi friendship. Th e co llect ive h and of the fraternity that is extended in apprec iat ion for a job well done also remains outstretched in welcome to th e one who ha s accepted the responsibility of the office, Fay M artin Gross. Countless young Pi Phi s in Iota Province have come to have a deeper understanding of the fraternity through her leadership and it is good to know that h er gifts are now to be shared on a broader scale with Pi Beta Phi in the offi ce of Grand Secretary.

News and feature material that reach THE ARROW H ook by October 31, will be included in the winter issue of the magazine. The address is Box 490-Marked Tr ee, Arkansas.

May Lansfield Keller, the tiny Pi Phi who cut a giant swath in the fields of education, civic lead · ership and other areas of intellectual and socia l development as they related to the woman's role in a changing world, died at h er h ome in Ri chmond, Virgi nia, June 27, 1964. She was 86.

For over 67 years, Dr. Kell er had maintained an abiding interest in the woman's fraternity that she had been initiated into as a student at Goucher College, and which she had served as Grand Presi· dent for ten years, 1908·1918. She had been hon· ored with the title, Grand Pres ident Emeritus, on the occasion of her retirement from that office in 19 18.

As the world turned the co rner on a new cen-

t ur y, M ay Kell er turned with it full speed ah ead and continued in that direction on many fronts unti l t he day of he r death.

Following her g rad uat ion from Gouch e r, she studied at the Unive rs ity of Chicago and the n ea rn ed her PhD ., from t h e University of H e ide lbu rg as a result of postg radua te study th e re and at t he University of B e rlin .

On her return to Ameri ca in 1 904, sh e h eaded the German D epa rtm ent at Wells College in Au · ro ra, N.Y., for two years befo re re turning to ch e r to teach English for e ig ht yea rs.

In 1914, the president of the University of R ichm ond asked h er to become the dean of Westh ampton Co ll ege The invitati on capped the climax on a four year campaign sh e h ad waged to bring hi gher co llege standa rd s to the South in h er work as president of t he Southern A ssoc iat ion of Co ll ege W omen.

W esth am pton had o nl y 87 g irl s enrolled wh en s he became dean. She demanded that e ntr a nce req uirem ents at the Coll ege be made the same as at seve n lead ing Easte rn co ll eges f or women. Th e reafte r, for 36 yea rs, sh e wo rked diligently to see t hat W esth ampton and its students met a nd maintained th e d emands of hi g h academic and moral standa rd s. A s a resu lt th e co ll ege ga in ed a fine rep utatio n in the l ibera l arts.

In a memorial edito ri al, The Ri chmond Tim esDispatch, sa id of th is phase in h e r life, "Behind her tiny ba ck, she was known as th e " Iron Dean " but it was a title of affectionate respect and never of criticism. Strict as she was a nd insistent on hi g h academic standa rd s, sh e knew w h en to relent. "

Whi le she was a member of th e Gouch er Co llege staff in 1908, M ay Keller was elected Grand President of Pi Beta Ph i at its twentieth biennia l convention in New Orleans.

Sh e presided at her fi rst convention, t he twentyfirst , in Swarthmore , Pa. , J une 27·30, 1910. It seems typica l of he r determination and abi li ty that t he Pi Beta Phi History would note, '"Thi s Convention because of t he endorsement of Settlement School, and the adoption of other exceeding ly pro· gressive movements was ca lled an 'epoch-making' one Good fellowship was the keynote."

With the approval of the plan of the Washington, D.C., Alumn", Club to estab li sh a Settlement School in the Appal achia n Mountains in honor of the Founders of Pi Beta Phi , Dr. Keller moved quickly to implement the plan.

She visited several areas in the mountainous a rea of T ennessee with Emma H arper Turner and

Leader inWoman 's Changing World

Anna F . T. Pettit. But her companions had returned to their h omes when sh e made th e 1 7 mile trip by buggy ovec "the worst road in T ennessee" to Gatlinburg. Of this place sh e wrote in h e r report , " . A more ideal situat io n I h ave seld om see n. There is CJuite a valley h ere, cup.sh aped, entirel y su rrounded by hi g h mountains, and its houses a re cuddl ed down under t h e mountains, ... when one conside rs that the work d o ne in the mountain schoo ls is nc\'c r abo\·c t h e fifth g rad e we understand more fully the needs of the peop le. Illiteracy is pe rh aps not so bad as represented , but the advantages for hi g h e r work are nil, and h o usehold economics, scie nt ific farming, etc., a re unknown quantities. \Y!e ca n find work to do anyw he re we go. A s far as Gatlinbu rg is concerned it is a romantically beautiful spot, with possibilities."

Oth e r sites were co n side red but Gatlinburg was selected and Dr K eller 's vision borne out with vivid clarity in over a h a lf.centu ry o f Pi Phi service there.

During Dr. Keller 's tenure as Grand President, o th e r m ajo r fraternity acco mpli shm en ts includ ed; $500 Fellow ship for graduate stu dy established Pledge exam in ations made co mpulsory; a perm anent loan fund estab li sh ed, the recognition pin adopted, th e Pi Phi g r ace aut h or ized, scholarship require m ents set up fo r c h apter office rs, a permanent S 10,000 End owment Fund for the Pi Beta Phi Fellow shi p launc h ed, a system of province vice presidents set up to work with al umme clubs on a systemat ic basis, the COl1venlion D aily instituted ( t 9 t 5), regu la r visits to ch apters by province presidents aut horized, and t h e forerunner of the M agazine Agency for the benefit of Settlement Schoo l approved.

Th ere was a note of ironi c coincidence in the fact that on the last full day of Dr. Kell er's life, June 26, 1964, Pi Beta Phis assembled in their 44th b ie nni a l convent ion in Vi ctoria, hea rd g ree tin gs from h er throug h Dallas P age West, delegate from the May L. Keller Pi Phi Alumn", Club of Richm ond. M rs, West said in pa rt, " I b rin g you g r eetings from ou r President Emeritus , May L. Keller . Miss Keller is sorry that sh e is unab le to attend ou r 44th bien ni al convention. Th is winter she was very ill , , but true to h e r reputation she bounced back into active service Miss K eller is a Pi Phi pioneer _ , , she is a leader in education I am very pleased to b rin g you g reetings from Dr May L. K eller, who h as gi"en so much of her life to Pi Phi, not only her life but her energy and h er lov e," Dr. K e ll er 's inte rest and energy extended to 5

many other organizations, fields and causes. She was a Phi Beta K appa and was a member of Tau Kappa Alpha , hon orary forensic f raternity. She belonged to Ih e Modern Language As socia tion , the Arc h eological Society of Am e ri ca and the V i rgi ni a Academy of Science. Sh e was a director for four years of the South Atlanti c Section of th e Am e ri can A ssoc iation of Unive rs ity W o m e n . She served o\'e r t h ir ty years as a volunteer and board member of t he Ri chmond Ch apter of the American Ca nce r Society,

Sh e h ad trave led widely throughout the wo rld to Eu ropean count ries, to Egypt, Greece, Turkey and Mexico .

On t h e occasio n of h e r reti rement as Wes thampton's dean in 1946, she noted it was not because she co uld not ca rr yon her duties , "but because she h ad ce rtain t hings sh e was eager to do."

Th ose "th ings" ran ged from trans lati ng a German epic to gardening and reading and speaking at a wide variety of gat h e rings , as we ll as t raveli ng wit h h er devoted f ri end, compa nion and Pi Phi siste r , P au line Turnbull.

" Only rar ely does t h e re appea r on t he human scene an authentic pe rsonality, one more fashioned a nd di rected from within and from abo\'e, than from around.

"Who will eve r forget that combination of di· minutive stature and outsized mind?

By THYRA THOMSON Wyoming Secretary of State

Wyoming is renowned a round the world for having been the fir st gove rnment to give equal rights to women. This law, passed in 1869 ( two years after the birth of Pi Beta Phi ) by the Wyoming T erritorial Legis lature, att racted more attention than any other document of the 19th century, and a half centu ry later became th e model for action by the Federal government, and later by other nations.

It is probably no accident that our natio n which first granted po liti ca l, legal, and economic equality to women, and access to education, quickly beca me one of the strongest and most prosperous nations in the world.

Howeve r, when the men of Wyoming passed the bill first granting women suffrage, they did not take the legislation that seriously. That night in the cattlemen's clubs and lu sty sa loons of Cheyenne, legis lators raised their g lasses in toast, " To our lovely women: once ou r supe riors , now our equals!" One candid gent was even heard to confess that the real reason for giving women the vote was to count enough squareheads to qualify for statehood.

But to their everlasting credit, the men of W yomi ng put action to their words and appointed the first woman jurist in the modern world and elected the first woman governor.

This is somew h at a background for my topic, " Pearls, Politi cs, and Patriotism ." In this context " pearls, " of course, symbolize women

For the first time in h is tory in the 1960 general election , women cast a majority of the votes. (Of co urse, not aU women vote. There are th ose like the little, old lady, when asked if she would like a ride to the polls, replied, " Mercy, no! I never vote. It only encourages the politicians. ") Still, be-

cause of sheer numbers and a g rowi ng awareness, women ca n and do great ly influence elections, and their vote attentively is soug ht by ca ndidat es and political parties alike.

The conce rn is not that women vote as a b lock, for they don't, nor is it that women may run the nation, (or an infinitesimal percentage eve n runs for office. The vital factor is that incllicating alld politirally actillatiug Ulomen iJ a tremendoll s potential for winning electiolls.

N ow, there are two ways to be effective politica ll y: ( 1) influ ence present office- holders; (2) e lect people who believe as we do . W e work at the first, but we recognize that the second is more su re and less frustrating.

Let's concentrate then on choosing , nominating, and electing candidates who believe as we do at the local, state and nati ona l level.

I am not going to enumerate the essentia ls of political organization, publicity, finance, etc. All of you can learn these ABC's at th e knee of you r party organizations

Let's admit to a sensitive nerve here :Many able men won ' t actively participate in politics because they are afraid it will hurt their businesses o r ca ree rs. Of course, what they really mean is th at they a re afraid th ey will back the wrong horse.

The important thing is to choose and work for a candidate who not only elucidates your politica l philosophy, but has the right philosophy, and who ran will.

H ow do you pick a winner?

First of all, early polls don't mean a thing. If they did , we could con duct a poll six months before election , discover the one ahead , forego campaigning, save thousands or minions of dollars, and know the results that will be forthcoming on

E.Day. But it d oesn't wo rk that way.

The will-IO-will is tbe most vitalI single attribllte for a wifming candidate.

rf you h ave to coax a runner to the starting line. fo rget h im The w ill -to -win is the meas ure of how much a cand id ate will give of himself in th e race. In a campaign you h ave to co me in fir st- those wh o come in seco nd a re out.

Th e will-to-win embodies massive se lf-con fid e n ce and bull-headed determination, a nd a n a U-e n compassing desire to best the oth e r man.

1 am reminded of the time George Berna rd Shaw wrote Winston Churchill and invited him to see hi s new play, say in g, " I am enclosing two tic kets for openi ng nig ht. Brin g a friend, if you have o ne "

Winston Church ill rep li ed, "Th ank you for th e tickets to your n ew p lay. I r eg ret that I am unable to attend on openi ng nig h t, but perh aps I shall be ab le to come on anot h e r occas ion, if there is one. "

The will·to·win a lso embodies humili ty. A per· son dedicated to a goal doesn't h esitate to say, ''I'd app reciate you r help ." Th is is the vast secret of winning ca nd idates Wh e n sh ak in g h a nd s, t h ey not only win votes, but en l ist workers.

How ca n we win votes? First, discard th e apathy of " what's the use?" and ha ve t he gumpt ion to n ot on ly wish for but flJ o rk for victo ry, and let's have some fun doing it- seriousness is not necessarily profundity.

Hi g h sp ir it is infectious in campaig ning. Airin g socia l, religious, economi c and po l itica l prejudices is not t h e way to win votes. Nothing is more tiresome and tedious to o th e rs th an declaiming the righteousness of one ' s views. Be e n t hu siastic, be industrious, be dedi cated, be vocal, but be hum an. Common h uman i ty is th e good of t h e world

One more don ' t: D orlt il1pllg n the motives of th e opp osition

At Constitution H a ll a speaker inferred that Eis· enhower was soft on commun ism because he invited Khrushch ev to visit the United St a tes. And there were th ose who pronounced JFK sympa thetic to communis m because h e surrounded him self with many advisers who be lo ng to the ADA This is ridiculous. Th e A me ri ca n p ubli c doesn ' t believe it and won ' t buy it. A man gives so mu ch o f h imse l f to be president for o nly o ne reason: h o pefull y, to go down in history as a great president. He may be mi staken . Yes. Bu t unpatriotic? No !

Shall we ta lk about pat riotis m ? H ow about those w ho insinuate sh ame o n patriotism? T oday, wha t const itutes patriotism? I s it unpatriotic to c riticize government ? N o. If you think it's not the gove rnment's business to take over busi n ess, say so.

Ten years ago, M cCa rt h y ca ll ed everyone wh o opposed him a communist , a nd untold senators and co ngress men running for re-e lectio n this year will try to mute c ri ticism of government by labe lling everyo ne who opposes them a rig htist, Birch e r , f ascist, h atemo nge r, or worse. Thi s is nonsense.

W e not on ly h ave t h e r igh t to oppose, but we h ave the so lemn duty as patriots in a re publ ic to re-orient t he federal gove rnm ent wh en necessary.

Because of their selfless dedi catio n to their children's future, women h ave been a stabi l izi ng influen ce in our social and po li tica l syst em. In voting t h ey h ave been, and a re, dynamically independent, res isting t he massive p ressures of specia l g ro ups.

Indeed, today t h inking women h ave th e poten· t ial to be truly priceless peads in our political fu· ture .

Conoention

No question about it- 1964 was a convention yea r from coast to coast and from summer's beginning to its end. The nation paid a good bit mo re attentio n to a coup le of po liti cal conventions than it did to the 44th biennial co n vent io n of Pi Beta Ph i Frate rnit y in Victor ia , Briti sh Columbia , Canada. But for nearly 600 Pi Phi s who attended th at gatherin g and some 70,000 or more s iste rs, thi s was a mighty important and memorable gat he ring.

I n a ch a ng in g world, Pi Phi kept pace with some innovation s in its national officer set-up, including the addi ti o n of a new seven-membe r Directo r g roup that will assist Grand Council in its i nc reas ing burden of respons ibi lity and work. Grand Counc il itself took o n a new look with changes in the titles of seve ra l offices.

Th e e\'er-p resent past cont ributed to change. Pi Phi ·s hi storic a nd hig hl y rega rded philanth ropic endeavor, Settlement School , offered the springboa rd to a new project, t he de\,e1opment of an Ar ts and Crafts Schoo l at Gatlinburg, Tennessee, the site of the Sett le ment School. "

Administrative Changes Were I

Changes in the administ rative officer o rgan i zation of Pi Beta Phi rated top consideration on the business agenda of the Fraternity ' s 44th bienn ial co nvention Jun e 21·26, 1964.

Considered the major ch a nge w as the a mendment to the constitution that provided for the election of a seven-member dir ec tor group that wi ll work with the se ven-member Grand Council in administerin g fraternity aff"ai (s T h is recomm e ndation of Grand Council to the convention was a n outgrowth of an extensive study of the total Pi Beta Phi organizational structure made in 196 2·63 by the Chicago firm of Booz· AlIen Hamilton.

Director titles are: Directo r of Membership, Director of College Programs, Director of Chapter H o use Corporations , Director of Alwnnre Ad visory Committees, Director of Scholarship, Director of Alumnre Prog ram s and Edito r of THE ARROW

Each member of the Director gro up will work with a mem be r of Grand Council in ca rrying out specific duties that relate to the area served by that Council office.

Growth of the Fraternity in the realms of membership, number of chapte rs and number of a lumnre dubs was cited as the cont r ibuting facto r for the administrative innovation. Members of the Director group will join Counci l members in official chapter visiting requirements.

Also approved were co nstitutional ch a nges altering Grand Council titles and re-aligning ce rtain Council member duties and responsibilities . Grand Council titles under the change are: Grand President, Grand Vi ce President, Grand Alumna! Vi ce

Grand President Stresses Worth of National Organi zation and Freedom for Fraternities

In her biennial report to convention, Pi Beta Phi Grand President Alice Weber Mansfield concluded her remarks with reflections on the cha ll enges inherent in the problems facing f raternities today. She noted that the Convention was assembled in a section of North America that h ad been sett led by hardy pioneers w ho endured rigorous ha rds hip s and here she found a comparison-

" Th e dangers we fa ce today a re not the tangible ones of our forefat h e rs, but we h ave need of t h e same qua l ities if we a re to survive them. The enemy we face today is clever enough not to make frontal attacks but instead takes advantage of our every weakness. Thus we must gua rd OUfselves. We need self-discipline not to give in to a momentary weakness. With many university administrations advocating the relaxation of a ll ru les as to h ours, with automobi les and liquor easily availab le, co ll ege undergraduates are faced with respons ibility that students a few years ago were spared. More and more they are forced to make thei r own decisions as to where to pla ce th eir va lu es.

" Prestige comes to a group as the result of effort and ac hi evement. To ga in prest ige an organ ization must h ave a reputation fo r accomp li shm ent, for honor, for susta in ed excellence.

"For 97 years, Pi Beta Phi has been gaining prestige throug h the efforts and l oya l support of its. members. The thrill of pride that eac h of us felt when she was invited to join is ev idence of the respect and esteem w hi ch our fraternity has earned.

" The officers of Pi Beta Phi have been charged to maintain wit h integrity the principles on which our fraternity was founded; no easy task in th ese troubled times, with pressures mounting as the forces that oppose our type of o rganization increase their efforts to break up the fraternity system.

" Pr esent ly the efforts to break up fraternities are concerned with a push for loca l autonomy in the choice of members. We are told by Student Government and facu lty committees that student members of a chapter of a national fraternity must have freedom to ch oose the ir members without the stultifying con trol of a l umna:. Alumna: members of a fraternity, induding its natio nal officers, are called "outside" influences which must be removed in o rder th at students may have complete freedom Hig h sounding motives are quoted in these d emands. \Y/e find th e words "individua l merit" used as a criterion, along with the statement that students need the educational experience of choosing for themselves

" If individua l chapters ha ve comp lete freedom to choose members, the collective freedom of 12

t he whole fraternity to be selective is lost. A confederation of chapters cannot comprise a national fraternity

"Since one of th e reasons for the prestige of Pi Beta Phi is its national character, it is questionable that anyone would feel th e same thrill at an invitation to join a loca l g roup. It is as a nationa l fraternity wit h n at iona l po l icies that our ch apters have developed to such a high degree of respect on their campuses.

" Pi Phis must look beyond t h eir own individual ch apter situation and think of the best good of the national fraternity that has granted t h em a charter. Further, they must realize that, as present active membe rs , they are on ly a small part of their own ch apter; present day trustees, so to speak- responsib le to t h ose who went before and th ose who will come afte r

" Wh e n f raternities battle for their co ll ective fr eedo m to c hoose members on a basis agreeable to a ll members of t h e fraternity, they are not denying to ot h ers t h e same basic personal and private rights Those w h o wis h a fraternity to have some ot h e r characteristic are perfectly free to estab li sh a n o rgan ization that is to t h e ir liking. T h ose who p refer a l oca l group with no responsibilities after co ll ege a re free to c h oose that. But those w h o choose Pi Beta Phi must recognize that t h ey are joining a national organization and that their initiation vows mean a privilege and responsibility for life

" I n the past two years pressures from different a reas of the country h ave increased. Courteous and coope rative as we have been and will continue to be with all university administrations, we can not comp romise a princip le for the sake of exped ien cy.

Pi Beta Phi has no clause dis cri minatin g against a nyone but as an international friendship organization we do have a system of sponso rship to assu re the continued strength of our fraternity.

" This fundamental basis for membership selection is being ch allenged in several areas such as California There, by September 1, 1964, we are to s ign the following statement or lo se recognition: 'I hereby certify that the student members of chapter of- are free to choose and accept new members without discrimination on acco unt of race, religio n or national origin.'

"S ince we cannot with integrity sign this statement, which in effect means loca l autonomy- and since we place a hig h va lue on freedom as essential to our way of life and worth fighting for, after careful consideration, P i Beta Phi h as joined a group of men ' s and women's fraternities in seek -

Convention Speaker Places Accent on Values

Dr. Dorothy Ad ine Truex, Dean of W omen at the University of Oklahoma, was initiated into Pi Beta Phi on June 22, 1964-<Jne of the two 44th Biennial Convention honor initiates. On June 25 t h e new initiate spoke to her Pi Phi sisters. H olding their attention with spark l ing wit and brilliant observation she nailed down some so lid points on t he matter of spi r itua l values and moral responsibiIitiy in relation to today's campus situation.

" I attended a sma ll denominational liber al a rt s co ll ege, a nd I w as very mu ch aware of the cont ro ls of the faculty and the administration, and to a lesse r degree, the peer group. When J went to work , rather relurtantly, in a large state unive rsity J began to feel that the individual was being engulfed , and I think this is in creasing ly true. Thi s is o ne of my current concerns and that is part of my motivation for affiliat ion with Pi Beta Ph i.

" ... I do not find it too easy to visua l ize the campuses from which you come, but I assume th at on t h e majority of these the percentage of affiliated women is declining as the enrollment goes up on June 1st, 1964, there were more than a mi lli on so rority members. But while these figures are impressive, remember that this fall there will be seven million stude nt s enro ll ed in insti tutions of h ig h er lea rnin g.

" What t hi s really means is that there will be more de-personalization of education and it will be less cente red o n the individu al. Th e social scientists have pointed out to us that colleges hav e really moved from the small-town, rural milieu into the more o r less urban situation where indi vidua ls really h ave lost th ei r identity and where there h ave been weakening group co ntro ls . Certainly I think this emp h asizes the need for sma ll , h omoge n eous g roups through which individuals mayestablish a se nse o f worth and belonging.

n ••• Another of my conce rn s that ha s led me to this moment in time is that early hig h er education was concerned not just with the intellectual deve lopment of students but with charact e r bui ldin g and moral instruction. Th e current trend away from respons ib ility for mo ral instruction o r enforcement of sta ndard s of acceptable behaviour by co lleges and universities convinces me that we h ave g reat need for spi ritua l values that were traditionally emp h asized by women's fraternities Contro ls on conduct are not being maintained by the counseling staffs. Large housing complexes are difficult to handle because they lack cohesion and tradition Faculty-stud ent contacts tend to be very limited a n d impe rsonal. Stud en t mobility is such that community contro ls cannot operate effect ively .

"The st rong demands for exemption from moral judgments, this strong protest from students, has for ced me to the conclusion t h at many part:nts h ave

lost the respc""Ct of t h eir chil dren and t h at administrators are unwi ll ing, or unable, to try to enforce standards of conduct befitting an educated person. We must rely on the o rganized groups, and I mean women's fraternity groups, to up hold standards.

" ... The student sub-cultu re, many times dominated by fraternity members, which condones violation of h ousing regulations , traffic rules , restriction on the use of alco ho l ic beverages, and regu lations deemed necessary for the safety and welfare of th e student body, brings on ly grief to the administration

" I must deplore attitudes I h ave heard voiced in Panhelleni c Council meetings t h at insist on adhe rence to restrictions on the use of alco ho l at parties given by women's fraternities but do not take prompt and effective action with misconduct by members and p ledges at othe r socia l funct ions.

" ... Th e attitude which ch a racte ri zes some ch apters , that the Dean of W omen should not be informed or consulted in matters of mi sco nduct in which t h e chapter takes disciplinary action is very sho rtsig hted-w h en the I ndependent Students Associatio n or the Assoc iati on of W omen Students reports that v io lato rs of university rul es are not punished unl ess they live in dormitories, the D ean of Women h as no effective argument unless she is informed of ch apte r action taken aga in st violators. The failure of a group to take re sponsib ility for every member is diametrically opposed to t h e spirit and the tradition of the fraternity. The statement, " What I do is my own concern, my own and my on ly conce rn" is despicable. A s President Blandin g has said so resou ndin gly, 'Conscience and moral attitudes a re individual matters-co nduc t and behav ior a re not:

" There is a gene ra l att itude h e ld amo ng the majo rity of co ll ege stud ents that (raternity m en and women conside r t h emselves supe ri o r I would like to remind you of t he o ld saying, ' There is no virtue in being supe ri o r to othe rs, there is virtue on ly in being supe r io r to what you have been in th e past.'

" In talking to fraternity women, I frequently hear the plaintive ref rain, ' But we are not appreciated. The administration doesn't recognize all the good we d o-ou r phil ant hropi c works, ou r fine scho la rship, our l eade rsh ip: Pe rh aps this is not true, but even if it is , these qua li ties are what is expected of you, and just doing what you p romised to do is not virtuous and deserves no extra\'agant praise or appreciation. It sounds s lig htly ph arisaica l, as though you did these things to be seen of men.

" Th e re is bound to be a certain amount of cyni(Con/inued 011 page 22)

Convention's twenty-hour days are packed ful l of memorable moments criss-crossed with l aug hter, excitement, emotion and warmth of feeling . Stimuli for many of those moments are the enjo}'able social events arranged by the Convention Committee and their co-worke rs in the hostess provinces.

This year's committee-Gu id e Helen Lewis, Chairman, Aileen Welgan; Registration Chairman, Betty Lefroy and H ospita li ty Chairman Mary Peck extended themselves to the fu ll est in arranging a congenial convention atmosphere. Their many co-wo rkers from Omicron and K appa provinces fo ll owed the same pattern in arranging and ca rrying out spec ial events.

"Friendship means much to each individual member but it is also vital to the fraternity itself. Friendship is the base on which Pi Phi is built. Friendship is the golden thread with which t he fabric of Pi Phi is woven .

"Pi Phi began with the friendship of twelve girls at Monmouth. The ties of friendship have kept Pi Phi strong and growing through the years. Fnendship will be the mainstay of Pi Phi in the future , for even in a changing world. friendship is still a basic need of the human being.

Deborah Hines is not a big girl-but sh e did a big job as a member of K ansas Beta Chapte r of Pi Beta Phi and as a student on the K a nsas State University Campus at Manhattan. Her effo rts in both of these areas were rewarded by her fraternity in Jun e when she was named a joint winn e r of the hi ghest Pi Beta Phi awa rd made to an individual , the national Amy Burnham Onken Award.

I n her campus years Deborah rang ed from dorm scholarship chairman in her freshman year to membe rsh ip in the Student Senate as an upperclassman. She was a member and secretary of the Union Governing Board Sh e held the offices of secretary of the Union hospitality committee, the freshman orientation committee and for the Arts and Sciences Council and also served on the student convocation co mmittee.

Honors kept pace with activity and began with her se lection for membership in the freshman women 's scholastic honorary, A A 6 . She was tapped for membership in Mortar Board in the spnng of her junior year and became a member of the national scholastic honorary, 0 K 0, as a senior woman student. She is also a member of 0 A M, Arts and Sciences honorary, Chimes, served it as vice president , and was its overall chairman for a campus-wide Par e nts Day observance.

ReRecting on what P i Beta Phi h as meant to h e r she wrote after recei"in g the award:

'·With each experience and responsibility durIng the past four yea rs J the meaning whi ch Pi Beta Phi for me h as g rown, and as I look back on those four years, I would have to write at great length to even touch on a few of the deep meanin gs of Pi Phi . I remember when I was initiated, a member told me that initiation was on ly the beginning- she said that it would probably be a long time before I could fully g rasp the true meaning of Pi Ph i and this adv ice was certainly true . Even as I assumed the role of pledge trainer and later that of president of our chapter, I knew [ was still learning and could only hope that my expe r iences in Pi Phi would enab le me to hel p guide others.

"We a ll know the traditional meanings of ou r fraternity are found in our rituals - beautiful with g reat wisdom and meaning. The friendships of my Pi Phi college days wi ll a lways be kept close to my heart. The fellows hi p gained in working and living together hds helped to make me a more mature woman . Pi Phi has meant assuming responsibility - living in a give and take situation and learning to become sensitive to those around me. Sharing, grow ing and working together have all been a part of the high scholarship and even mo re than just scholarship-high goa ls in a ll areas of human life, h ave all meant a g reat deal to me.

"The old saying that one receives as one gives app li es to what Pi Phi means to each of us . One must give to receive and if one is willing to give then the rewards are greate r than could ever be put into words.

"May I close with a big thank-you to Kansas Beta, to Mrs. K oza, Mu Province President and to Grand Council for making this hono r possible I am deeply humble and g r ateful . Thank Y OII a/l /"

National ABO Award

Capable Cathy Gordon has been described by o nc of he r Texas Gamma Pi Phi sisters as "The epitome of the Pi Phi leadec." In Jun e that high opinion held by her sisters wa s affirmed by G rand Council when it announced her selection as o ne of the two recipients of the 1964 national Amy Burn· h am Onken Award

It was a fitting climax for Cathy's ca reer as an active chapte r member of the fraternity for she had been se lected by her chapter as "Best Pl edge " in her pledge class. She had continued to merit the t rust and co nfid ence of he r Pi Phi siste rs and was elected president of the Texas Gamma chapte r in her junior year.

Cathy spent much of her life in Spain and South Ameri ca, before enro ll ing in Texas Technolog ica l Co ll ege at Lu bbock. Fluency in Spanish led her to her initial campus post of leadership as a member of the Texas Tech Student Union·s I nter· national Interest Committee. This was t he fi rst step in a remarkable record of campus se rvice and leadership.

She was invited to membership in 1: ll. TI , Spanish honorary, and 11 ll. II, French h ono rary, and :E T "' , Eng lis h honorary. She se r ved bot h the Spanis h honorary and French honora ry as vice president and was president o f 6. II as a junior student.

Her interest in the Tech Student Union 's var ied program of activity drew h er into increasin g ly responsib le positions of campus activity. Sh e served as ch a irm an of its spec ial events comm ittee and then as a junior was elected vice president of the Tech Union. She went on to a broade r area of leade rs hip with he r election as vice pres id ent of th e Southwestern Student Union Associatio n

This work had brough t her unusual honor early last year when she was awarded a life membership in the Tech Union, which is the hi g hest service awa rd given by t he College.

As a junior, Cathy was selected to serve as chairman of the important Tech group, the Pres ident's Hostesses and was chosen as Tech's Sun Carnival Prin cess [or the annu al E I Paso Sun Carnival.

She was president of her dorm, Horn Hall, in the 196 3 sum me r session and was the Tech Union representative to the Board of Student Organizations.

A member of Mortar Board, she was one of four Tech junior students chosen for inclusion in If/ho's Wh o Am ong Stllde nt! in American Univer!ities and Coll ege ! and was selected for that h onor for a second consecut ive yea r in 1964.

While fu lfilling her busy schedu le as a ch apter officer and as a campus leader, Cat h y m aintained a high grade point and g raduated with a 3.4 ove rall ave rage.

Following graduation she accepted a position as teac h ing associate in a graduate student program at Indi ana University. ]n January, 196 5 sh e will e nroll at th e Universidad Na tional de CoJombia in Bogata for eig ht months of graduate study as recipient o f a fellowship offered jointly by the I n· d iana Fe deration of Women 's Clubs and Indi ana Univers ity .

Commenting on what Pi Beta Phi has meant to he r, Cat hy said afte r receiving the ABO awa rd :

"My association with Pi Beta Phi was extreme ly close during my co ll ege years and I still consider myself very much a pa rt of a vita l and creative or· ganizat ion.

"The effect of co ntact with such a dynamic force was at fi rst awe-inspi rin g and a lmost defeating for I felt that] cou1d never even tru ly understand it or its purpose. Gradually, however , with the help of my Texas Gamma (in ra rti cu Jar) and Pi Phi sisters, ] became aware 0 what Pi Phi is trying to accomplish and how I might help achieve this goal.

"This g rowing awareness, then, not o nly of Pi Phi, but of other people, of values and of ideas and concepts is a di rect resu lt of knowing and working with and for Pi Phis and of being one myself.

"' I have taken many of the goa ls of Pi Beta Phi as my own and these goa ls will d ete rmine to a great extent the kind of woman I shall try to become."

cism about the all-sorority average, whi ch is con· sistently h ig her than the all -warnen's average, when there is idle chatt er by fraternity women about the extensive examination fi les maintained in the house , when fa culty advisors are asked to adjust an academi c schedule so that a p ledge can make her g rad es for initiation, when a chapter requires that members take reduced academic loads in o rd er to raise the grade point average, and when the practi ce of taking in complete g rades in difficult sched· ul es is advoca ted or co ndoned . This is not the best practi ce in my opinion .

--The mean level of the ability of college stu· dents has been going up and the serious scholars, at least in my o bservation, in many instances are Shunning affiliation with f ratemities because they believe that the many chapter functions are anachroni sti c and the archaic activities promoted by fraternities will interfere with the real purpose of higher education .

I n the matter of development of leadership, the disjointed nature of the large campus is painfully apparent. On a campus of 12 ,000 students less than one- half of one percent will attain positions of conspi cuous leadership , by dedication and meticulous attention to the student power structure. The contribution of leaders hip will be through the small friendship group of the fraternity, with sincere and reasoned cooperation with other groups holdin g similar aims.

Praise for the Past and Vision for the Future

Standing at a crossroads in th e area of philan. thropic service in 1964, P i Beta Phi members at· tending the 44th biennia l Co nventi on hea rd their 52·year old philanthropy, th e Settlement School de· scribed as "the most Important philanthropic venture ever undertaken by a fraternity"-and also listened to suggestions for a new development in philanthropy th at could "be an ideal opportunity to provide co ntinued lea de rship in the utilization of huma n resources through a Judicious, sound , yet inspi red p rog ram ."

Tho se statements came in talks made durin g th e Settlement School program by Miss Ma rian Heard , Unive rsi ty of T e nn essee professor of Arts and Craf ts, and director of the Pi Beta Phi ·UT Sum · mer C r aft Workshop, and Dr Lura M. Odland , Dean o f th e Co ll ege of H ome Eco nomi cs of th e University of Tennessee.

Mi ss Heard .

Miss Hea rd dealt both with th e past and the future.

" I come to you fr o m a wonderful secti o n of the co untry that you all know , that is very dear to your hearts, from a va lle y in the Smokies , from Gatlin· burg, the site where your sorority sisters, desiring to serve mankind, es tab li shed the Pi Beta Phi Set· tlement School. From thi s site, this laun ching pad, many s uccessful ventures have been p laced into o rbit, so me to orbit on ly loca lly, some of national sig nifi ca nce, some of intern at io na l significance.

" Without doubt, yo ur Frate rnity 's Settlement Sch oo l , with a ll its ramifications, is the mo st important philanthropic venture ever undertaken by a fraternity.

". _ . H ea lth and education were you r primary purposes but you were very flexible, wise and appreciative of the heritage an d culture of the moun· tain people. Y ou en larged the scope of you r influence to a cottage industry and late r, th e Arrowcraft Shop.

" Let's th ink of what the Arro wcraft Shop has meant to the Pi Beta Phi sorority . Every piece bought a t the Arrowcraft Shop ca rri es the Pi Phi tag. Wh at bette r advert iseme nt all ove r th e United States a nd forei g n co untr ies? Th e annu al sa l e has bee n a cohesive forc e--som e comm on goa l to work fo r P eop le in th e co mmun ity take away a story plus a concrete object, which is a lways a credit to th e P i Phis.

" .. . I n 1945, the re was a desi re on th e pa rt of th e P i B eta Phi Fraternity to extend their training and extend their influence i n t he craft field even more so than locally or through the Arrowcraft Shop. And so by combini ng with th e University of T ennessee, a craft workshop was started. W e h ave

never had less than thirty States rep rese nted at our workshop. We have had people from 43 different states and 13 foreign countries . " We have teachers from all levels, specialists who wo rk with the blind, who work with the deaf . . . people who work with women in prisons. We have people who work with the aged or ge riatrics We have people who h ave trained with us and who have gone in l ater and studied and co ncent rated on working with cripp led children .

".. . These are a few thin gs that yo u put into orbit. Y o u have been very successful with them. But I would like you to fa ce: what's ou r future? You pioneered very successfully. We h ope th at you will wi sh to pioneer again.

" We wou ld l ike to propose a g reat creative craft and art ce nter at Gatlinburg. Y o u ha ve a g reat investment there . You have a reputatio n for abso· lute excell ence . You have the hi ghest sta ndards in your craft workshop. You have the appreciation of the people in the community who realize th at if it had not been for the Pi Beta Phi Schoo l and th e education they were able to obtain there , they wo uld not enjoy the position they do in the com· munity. You have a craft climate whi ch has never been known since the country became industrialized . You are in an area where more crafts are indi genous to the area than any ot her part of th e United States . You are in an area where our Southern Highland Guild is the largest area g uild of any one in the United States.

" . .. Thi s c reative c raft center would be a much, much d ifferent thing than the craft workshop ca r· ried on fi ve or six weeks in the summer. Thi s would be a year·round project, not classes all year round, but there would be times when nationall y kn own c rafts men would co me and teach for th e very fine proficient craftsmen of this country. .Th e re would be t imes w he n we could have c redit people come. There wo uld be times when people wo uld come and go back to co mmunities to work with the blind, the deaf, the crippled, all areas . .. they are a ll de· manding craft peo ple.

" So again, you are blessed with a wond e rful opportunity to do a service to mankind, a fi eld that is wide open. Some o rga nization is go in g to meet thi s chall enge, this dream . We hope with the wo n· derful pioneering work that you have done previous ly to this that it will be the fraternity which h as do ne so mu ch in promotin g th e c rafts, in add· in g to the cu l tural climate of the a rea in which th ey settl ed.

"Thi s is an e ra of growth and de velopment in a ll h uman undertakings.

Creative Arts and Crafts Center Chosen as Centennial Project

The 44th Bi en nial Convention of Pi Beta Phi , meeting at Victoria, B .C., Canada, vo ted to ce lebeate Pi Beta Ph i's Centennia l by estab li sh ing a center for education in the field of arts and c rafts at Gat linburg, Tennessee.By 1967, a g radua l phasing out of some parts of the Settlement School program w ill have been effec ted and other parts will h ave been incorpo rated in the new centen nial project.

Thi s cente r will h ave a four-fold purpose. It will provide training for the rapists and volunteers w orking w ith ph ysically and mentally h a ndi capped. It will provide further education for professionals and educators in t h e fi e ld of arts and c rafts. It will provide an introduction to ways of using leisure time in a creat iv e manne r to many who seek to enrich their li ves. It will provide a show -case and trai ning cente r to oth e r countries as to h ow creative c rafts native to a count ry can be preserved and developed

Our Summer Workshop in Gatlinburg h as a lready att racted peop le from many foreign count ries, top c raftsmen from ou r own count ry and th ose wo rkin g in ho spita ls and rehabilitation cente rs w ith mentally and physica lly h andicapped. Our n ew cente nnial project will make th ese co ur ses avai lab le o n a qua rte rl y basis, and those who want co ll ege c redit will receive it from the University of Tenn essee.

Th ey may teach children to appreciate th e beauty in this world a nd to c reate beauty themselves, or th ey m ay teach injured muscles to work again, or they m ay teach dulled minds to recognize their surroundi ngs a nd become ale rt to reali ty, or they may teach senior cit izens to use their days c reat ivel y and p roductively, o r they may teach a community to become awa re of the possibilities of creative talent amo ng its own c iti ze ns and th e advisability of preserving the patterns of its he ritage.

Th e possibilities of increased enrichment of lives in a variety o f a reas a re unlimited and exc iti ng. Our fund is st ill small , o nly $85,000.

Message to Pi Phi from Nurse Nancy Shilling

day and dispense soap, water. antiseptic and hun· dreds of bandaids. The most important item in the first aid kit is called "TLC"-tender loying care. Somehow a hurt always feels better when there is someone to sympathize and a shiny band-aid to show your friends.

Gatlinburg has changed vastly in the last few years and many people get the impression of wealth and ease when they visit us. That is true within a certain area. but when you leave the city limits and go out into the hills and h ollers, you find the same small farms and the same people who navealways lived here. Many familjes are still having a difficult time to make ends meet.

NUr'. Nancy

Nancy Shilling is Settlement School's newest staff member. This personable and talented young nurse who now directs activities at the Jennie Nicol Health Center has written an open letter to Pi Phis as follows :

' This year will be my first as a staff member at the Pi Beta Phi Settlement School, but this will mark the thirteenth year I have spent at Pi Phi . I was graduated in the class of 1960 and since then have been away at school. So this is not really a " new " job, I am merely coming home again.

Ever since I was a little girl. I have wanted to be a nurse. Many times I brought my cuts and scratches to our beloved " Miss Marjorie " and lis· tened to her stories and advice on nursing. Little did I know that some day I would be sitting at her desk and doing her job.

What is my job ? Well , let me tell a little about it. The main responsibility I have is to the school children. Each year we give all the necessary immunizations so that they are protected against small· pox, whooping cough, tetanus, typhoid and polio. Our vaccines come form the U S Public Health Department. Of course, school children are always catching things lik e mumps and chickenpox . We try to spot these children and send them home for proper ca re and for the protection of the others.

Who does not remember the thousands of scra tches and bumps that the normal growing child manages to accumulate? I see many of these each 2.

Here the Health Center helps again. The people learned when Mrs. Chalmers was here that if they really needed something, she could get it for them . Those of us who follow her will continue this with YOUR help. Each year Pi Phi alumn", groups from all over the country send boxes of used clothing and shoes. which we distribute to those who need them Mountain peop le are a proud people. Children don't mind going barefoot in th e summer and early fall, but when frost comes those with· out shoes or warm clothing will have to stay at home.

School clothes are always needed , for all sizes and both sexes. Warm sweaters slacks. jeans, socks and shoes are always welcome. We also keep baby clothes and diapers and try to make layettes of sorts. One group recently sent a box of Bannel baby blankets, each one edged in hand sewing. We sometimes gowns or diapers and we put a few new things In each layette . ] ust about any practical piece of clothing can be used . We have little use for formal wear but " Sunday" dresses are always welcome Adult clothing goes qui ckly too

The Health Center serves as liaison between the two local physicians and the people. We have sev· eral people who need weekly injections of vitamins or alJergy serum. By coming to the Health Center they save both money and tjme , for we charge only a nominal fee .

Each Friday afternoon the Health Center reo sounds with the cooing and crowing of the " least uns." At these Well Baby Clinics the babies are weighed and given protective immunizations while the mothers discuss proper foods, teething, heat rash .... d the thousand and one little thin gs they never thICk to ask the doctor. Any signs of illness or deformity is referred to the family physician .

Corrective measures , such as braces , glasses and hearing aids can be obtained with the help of local civic clubs and the U S Public Health Crippled Children ' s Clini c.

And last, but not least, the Health Center and its nurse, whoever she may be , stand as one of the best examples of healthful and happy living. In every task the principles of accident prevention and health teaching are stressed SO that our future adults will be stronger and better prepared to meet the world of tomorrow.

Having met Nancy we hav e full confidence in her ability and, plus her genuine enthusiasm, we know she will prove a great asset to the Health Center.

Southern California Craft Workshop Scholarship Winner

Mrs . Grace B. Aldric" . a member of the San Jose Alumn", .• teacher of Hom e Econom· ics , was awa rd e" .be 1964 Craft Workshop Schol· ars hip by the uJut hern California Area Council of Pi Beta Phi . Mrs . Aldrich 's active participation in th e Alumn", Club and he r interest in the Settlement School mad e her selection most fitting .

For a number of years this scho larship has been made possible by the support of the Southern California Alumn", Clubs.

Mrs Aldrich ha s been most enthusiastic about her first year at the Craft Workshop-"What a rare privilege I am havin g thi s summer as a student at the Workshop This dream was made possible by a scholarsh ip given me by the Southern California Alumnre Clubs . Th e weaving classes I am taking will help me to teach others after I retire next year.

"Pi Phi ha s a wonderful location and many fine facilities to handle these craft classes. Our faculty is outsta ndin g in their fields and widely known for their wo rk in c rafts . It is amazing to me that so few Pi Phi s t ake advantage of these "fine opportunities in craft work . In talking to the students I find many return two o r three times for summer classes at the Craft W orks hop. I love the informal, friendly atmosp h ere

It is (un meeting peop le from our cou ntry, as well as from other count ri es. I will leave si ngi ng the prai ses of the Workshop, having been here for

fi\'e weeks . It is unbelievable , the fine work accomplished. I hope to return again, too, as one sum' mer is only a beginning , once you get the interest in craft work."

Little Housewife Goes to Washington-and Big Job

An extraordinary housewife went to Wa shington and became Chief of the Consumer Consultant Bran ch of the Food and Drug Administration .

The magic wand that did it was ability, experience, and effort. The housewife is Mrs. Carla S. Will ia ms , Wisconsin Beta , from Beloit College.

As director of the activities of 25 consumer education specialists throughout FDA's districts, Mrs . Williams presented a paper before the Internation al Organization of Consumer Unions, attended by represe ntatives of 27 nations at O s lo , Norway in June.

Ceremonies were officially opened by the King of Norway.

Mrs. Willi ams visited cons umer associatio ns in London, Stockholm, and Copenhagen before re o turning to the Nation 's Capitol.

A housewife -ca nsumer herself, Mrs. Williams brought to Washington her background in person· nel , social welfare work , recreational programming. and radio-TV and public re lations experience including a variety of civic and political activities .

As the first person to fill the newly created po. sition, she has added a new dimension to her manyfaceted career.

Born and raised in the Midwest, Carla Williams attended Stephens College in Columbia , Mo ., Be· loit College in Beloit, Wisconsin, and the graduate schoo l of the University of Wisconsin, Madison. After completing her studies, she begln personnel testing research with the Western Electric Company, then moved into the social welfare field with the Chicago Red Cross Headquarters. Later, request· ing transfer of duty, Mrs. Williams traveled to the Philippines, Okinawa , and Japan with the Occu· pational Red Cross Forces.

In Japan, she met and married her lawyer husband and returned to raise a family in the United States . At home , she assumed community leadership roles.

Mrs . Williams returned to the career world in 1955 with a publi c relations job for a major po. liti ca l party. From there, she moved to Capitol Hill and became legislative assistant to a U . S. Congressman .

Later, she directed the Speakers Committee of the President's People to People Program which in· c1uded a seven week study survey through four Scandanavian countries. For this and other activities, Mrs. Williams ha s received several honorary citations, including the Annual Alumncr Award from her alma mater , Stephens College.

Of her job, Mrs . Williams says, " There has been an increasin g demand on FDA, concurrent with the fantastic deve lopment of new products and manufacturing processes in the food, drug, and cosmetic field so that with the seve ral new laws whi ch have been passed during the lat year or two , many added

respo nsibilities on the part of FDA and industry have come about.

"These chan ges," she co ntinued , "p lus the many o ther functions of FDA , are being discussed by the Consumer Consultants with consume r groups so that they act as 'liaison ' between the Am erican public and FDA .

"Throug h a new awareness brought about by this consumer educatio n program, the co nsumer, then, can participate in achieving a better 'protection job' in the expanding field of food s, drugs , and cosmetics ,"

Mrs . Williams has ca pably filled her position in an "expandi ng field" as housewife extraordinary, se rving other housewi fe consume rs through FDA.

Louisiana Beta Claims First Lady-Elaine Durbin

by Anne Vetsch , Lou isi ana Be t a

The first woman president of Louisiana State University student body may well be the first woman president of the United States if Pi Beta Phi Elaine Durbin continues her breakneck politi. cal progress after college.

Elaine crowned an outstanding co llege career with her election as SGA chief executive this past year. Louisiana Beta claimed her this year too, and she was initiated in March before g raduat ing from the College of Business Administration in May.

Professionally, Elaine made her political debut by working with the state legis lature during the summer; she has tentative plans to continue the position while beginning her law degree.

This New Orleans girl had a long and honor· Jilled career at LSU. She crammed her freshman year with ori e ntation , student governme nt committee work , and WRA activities. Her first taste of politics came the next year when her sister ran for vice president of the freshman class and won. That same yea r Elaine was a Student Government Association sulxommittee chairw oma n fo r the Homecoming committee and held two other committee chairs in SGA.

She was elected president of A B X, a business administration honorary; secretary-treasurer of the Co llege of Bu siness Admini st ration , AWS dorm representative and chairma n of the Standards Committee on the AWS council.

Her junior year meant new honors for Elaine. She served on the Who ' s Who ;n Ame,;ean Col· l ege/ and Universities nominating committee and on the M orale Commission. The society for the Ad· vancement of Management selected her as correspond ing secretary and her dorm elected her to the Standards Board . Elaine attended the region 9 Union Convention at Norman , Oklahoma , and was se lected for Angel Flight and Mortar Board. From here, she went on to her enviable SGA position and her senior yea r.

Elaine filled normal twenty.four hour days with an extraordinary amount of activity. She was selected Lou isiana's vice chairman for Southern Universities' Student Government Associations, worked precious hours as information officer for Angel Flight, and spent some Jive hours a day in her of· fice taking ca r e of essential paper work and the like . Here, she sa id her main job was "just being with people all day and answering th e unending questions of th e administ ration ."

Presidential duties required Elaine's attendance at meetings of the Publications committee, the Athletic Counci l, and the Union Governing Board.

She capped her active senio r year by becoming a Pi Beta Phi pledge, and later, initiate.

Outstanding is the si ng le word to describe Elaine's final days at LSU. The Alumni named her one of the outstanding senio rs in Business Administration. Th e University agreed and gave her its outstanding senior award in h er major field . She was A B X's outstanding senior woman in the college of Busi ness Admini stration, An gel Flight's outstanding senior, and Pi Beta Phi 's outstanding senior delegate to State Day.

Under the Tucson stars. the year began with a dinner, at the home of Polly K night. honoring the new pledges at t he University of Arizona. Patio parties are popula r in thi s area and, under the apparently effortless chairmanship of J olene Lutz, the evening was a delight for everyone.

I n Novtmber, Ann Webs ter was chairman of a prog ram to support the Settlement School. held at the home of Nancy Birtch in the rolling fo o thills of th e Santa Catalina Mountains. Ja nice Flood was responsible for our annual shoppers luncheon. held during the Christmas season with the motheu dub, at The Old Pueblo Club.

A bridge and canasta party. our most ambitious event of the year, was under the dedicated chairmanship of Nancy Birtch. Luscious dessuts were served and members modeled more than forty eustumes in a you t hful spling fashion show. Committee chairmen were Shi rley Portouw, Pat Mackey, Lou Gree r, and Ruth Curry. Ann Pi ckrel! was hostess for the March business meeting, with Evelyne Tietz serving as chairman Founders' Day, a lovely luncheon in the Santa Ri ta Hotel, was under the conscientious chairmanship of J ane Bowersmith. Golden Arrow mtmbers present were: Mrs. George W. Beal. Mrs. John O. Lee, Mrs. J ames M eade, Mrs. J. B. Richardson, Mrs. F J

Rucker. Mrs. L. J Van Schaick, Mrs. Floyd E. Thomas, Lotta Broadrid ge. M abel Hill. and In ez Webster.

The gracious home of Evelyne Tietz was th e setting for the senior supper, which honored ou r departing Pi Beta Phis from the active chap ter. Marcia Latta was chairman for the even t I n June the dub completed its year with an evening swim party and patio dinner. which included husbands and sweethearts, at the home of Mar ilyn Quinto.

Overseeing the year's activities were the hard w orking and .soft spoken officers: Joan Campidonica. president; Evelyne Tietz. vice· president; Patricia Eller, recording secretary; Shirley Portouw, treasurer; and Marilyn Quinto. corresponding secretary.

WHITII ER

The September meeting of the Whittier Area Alumn:e Club, under the capable direction of the president. Marilyn J ohnston, was a workshop session. Seamstresses made felt hand puppets and artists painted and decorated coffee cans to be used as cookie con· tainers. Both products were sold at our most successful Settlement School tea held at Betty Clayton', home. under the chairmanship of A nn H ayes.

On severa l occasions the enjoyment of food was second only to good fell o wship. Many members attended the annual Christmas brunch at Gere Sexton'! new home; in February the club joined the North Orange County Club to eat lunch and tour Lawry's Food Center; in March members gathered for a pot l uck dinner.

I n 'May the club was honored with a visit from ou r gracious Alumnae Provin ce Presiden t Mary Van Buren. This was also a join t meeting wi t h the Orange County group. and a delicious lun cheon was catered.

Founders' Day was observed with all alumnae clubs in the area mee ti ng at the Amba ssado r H otel for lunch and a stimuh t ing talk by Alice Weber Mansfield. Musical ente rtainment was provided by groups from the area active chapters.

Four local girls pledged Pi Beta Phi. a well earned reward for J ean H ughes and her assistants in recommendation.

Several of the members have given th eir time regularly in assisting teachers at the Exceptional Childrens' Foundation. ou r local philanthropy. The club has donated money for scholarships to the foundation, as well as rhythm inst ruments, which were made '\t the workshop meetings, and a record player.

Th e year ends, as usual. with a gay M onte Carlo party. where husbands are honored guests and the executive board membl'ts afe hostesses.
