On March 16 Margaret Truman, District of Columbia Alpha, daughter of the President of the United States, was soloist on the Evening Hour from Detroit, with the Detroit Symphony Orchestra. She was mod estly presented as Miss Truman, of Washington, D.C., fitting opening for a prog ram of simplicity and charm , wbich bad the added pleasure of familiarity, and which was well-suited to her fresh young coloratura voice.

THE ARROW O F PI B E TA PHI

Editorials

Of Size

Again this month we give you a small issue of the ARR OW , again due to an acute paper shortage, and to the fact that the paper company in Neenah, Wisconsin, from which we have purchased paper for the ARROW for many years, has found it possible to build an extension of its already great plant, but in the process must shut down half of its present facilities With paper shortage still se rious throughout the coun try. especially since many of the national magazines now control a large part of the output of the type of paper used in th e ARROW, it is not possible to purchase it elsewhere. So our last two issues for the year are reduced in size---but perhaps readers will forgive that when they realize that the first two were extra large, because of the mass of reports and Convention material co nta ined in them. It was a matter of special regret that the entire ticn of pictures of campus honor girls had to be omitted-but for thi s year only!-besides mu c h mteresting personality material .

Carrie C hapman C att

Strange indeed th at so soon after her 88th birthday which was ce lebrated by Pi Phis everywhere as Chapter Loyalty D ay, and before the article and interview about her by Mary Elizabeth Lasher in the last ARROW was eve n in the mails, Mrs Catt died suddenly of a heart attack at her home in New Rochelle on March 9. The press has been full of the story of her accomplishhad been b eaped with honors by the whole world for her work for women and for the cause of Peace We can add littl e to those tribut es. A great woman, perhaps to be eva lu ated as the greatest woman in hj story for her services, has gone. As President Truman said, "with her passing , an era in our national life comes to a close." Best of all, she was a devoted member of Pi Beta Phi and of Iowa Gamma . In her March letter to the province presidents, Miss O n ken summed up this phase by saying "the th ing which makes her achievements mean the most to me, is that even though they so filled her life, she always had time , love, and loyalty to give to her fraternity ." Those of us who were privileged to know her have truly "brushed the wings of greatness."

H e r January 21 letter to Miss Onken read: "1 have Ca"ie Chapma" GIll before me your letter of December 27, 1946 . All kinds

of thing s have overtaken me, rendering impossible an early answer to your letter. I return the ca rd filled in properly I hope, and I am very pleased indeed to be a golden Pi Beta Phi. I believe I was initiated in 1878 and my order was the "I.C." I rejoice that I have turned golden in the many years that have passed since then." 441

Eli.abeth Sawyer Von KleinSmid

Word has come of the passing of another great woman and great Pi Phi, distinguished especially in California for fine service to college women. From the News Bureau of the University of Southern California comes an evaluation of her life and work which expresses all we might say, and more; it was written by Franklin B. Skeele, husband of Violet Stuart Skeele, California Gamma.

"A ' noble and gracious alumn", of Pi Beta Phi: Elisabeth Sawyer von KIeinSmid, wife of Chancellor Rufus B . von K1einSmid of the University of Southern California, died January 20 at the family residen ce, 17 Chester Place in Los Angeles , after seve ral years of illness.

" Affectionately known as ' First Lady of the Campus: her induence in behalf of the students of the' university 'w ill forever endear her to Southern Califomia,' declared Rev . Wend ell Miller, pastor of the University Methodist Church, at her services.

"Mrs. von K1einSmid was mad e a member of Iowa Alpha of Pi Beta Phi in 1888, and at Wesleyan University whe re she was graduated with the Bachelor of Mu sic degree She kept her interest in sorority life throug hout her years and in addition to her many interests at S.c. frequently loaned her home in Ch ester Place to Pi Phi alumnae and was frequently honored by the active chapter of Cali£ornia Gamma . Her sister, Mrs. Fl etcher Linn of Portland, Oregon is credited with originating the famed 'Ring Ching Ching' song.

"As Elisabeth Sawyer began her musical career she first entered Wolf Hall of Denve r. In addition to degrees from Iowa Wesleyan University she was graduated from the New England Conservatory of Music and the Boston Conservatory of Music, later becoming affiliated with the American College of Musicians in New York City. Prior to entering a brilliant career as a con· (er t pianist and instructor at DePauw University she spent four years abroad studying with masters mBerlin and Vienna .

"In 1911 she was married in Portland, Oregon to Professor Rufus B. von K1einSmid who at that time beld a chair of philosophy at D ePauw University. Together with her husband she spent two years in psychological research work in Indiana, moving with him to Tucson where he served for seveD years as President of the University of Arizona .

"In 1921 the von K1einSmids came to the University of Southern California and for the past twenty-five years she devoted her activities to campus life Sbe founded Town and Gown (and was its president for a quarter of a century), an organization sponsoring student housing and scholarship . The Elisabeth von KleinSmid Hall, women's dormitory, was named in her honor as were several scholarships . The Town and Gown award is given annually to the most outstanding senior woman. Under her leadership the Foyer building of Town and Gown was constructed as a cultural gathering place for outstand ing banquet events. She also joined her husband in establishing the Elisabeth S. and Rufus B. VOn K1einSmid Library of World Affairs. Her affiliations likewise included activities in the campus Y.W.C.A ., and the Faculty Wives Oub.

"To perpetuate her memory, many campus groups as well as alumni and friends have already offered contributions for numerous projects in which Mrs . von KleinSmid was interested. In addition to establishing a memorial lounge in the new Y .W.CA. building now being planned, additional scholarships and the von K1einSmid Library of World Affairs are receiving gifts ."

Of New Member!

We can ill afford to lose such devoted members , such distinguished women, as these two whom we bave honored bere. Every chapter in the land has new members-and so this is the right time to take stock of those members, and of our responsibility to them. What are we doing to make them Pi Phis of the type of these women? How are we working to develop them, SO that perhaps from their ranks may come women of such distinction? Here is food for thought for chapters and advisory boards : "Think on These Things! "

Some day, in the quiet time of remembering, With pleasure even at the littl e things

When I have dedicated my arrow into safekeeping for my daughterWhen I have joined that mysterious, vague, "adult" category: Alumn aeWhen I have left forever this pleasant stone house

I will look back on college daysI will remember Pi Beta Phi.

I will recall with longing the joys each room conceived for me . I will remember the living rOOffi-

We sat in front of the log fire at coffee-time.

We danced on the slick hardwood floor at open-houses after football games.

We gathered around the piano to sing gay songs

Or stood at attention as the SODg leader gave us the ootes for our new five.part harmony "Pi Phi Symphony"-

Or, when Lake Michigan blew freezing winds campus-ward, we invited serenading fraternity men to "come into the living room" and keep their music from being stolen by the wind I will remember "rushing" in the living room . .. the float ers who hopped from fre shman to freshman .. . comrades in confiden ce that Pi Beta Ph is we re gracious and hospitab le . The candle Bickered before Dottie's face, and cast weird shadows on the high ceiling as we stood in the darkened room . singing "Remember," H ands joined. we told ourselves-more than we told the rushees-

That we would "Remember the Pi Phi arrow."

I will remember the dining room-

How we enjoyed political and pbilosophical discussions over our coffee cups.

We felt a musical unity in "Ring Ching Ching "

We smiled at the table across the room--or saluted a friend with " Here's to Qur guest "

We sat in splendor here. With a gardenia for each new initiate With orchids and violets for guests- with tall white candles

Entwined with dark green lemon leaves ...

Among this beauty we looked at each new face, and were very proud . We partied here. Had do-nuts and coffee at open houses . . . sat On the Boor in blue-jeans and munched potato chips and hot dogs with a visiting sorority house ....

"We thank Thee, Father, For these our blessings, We praise Thee always; Merciful and mighty I will remember the rooms and corridors-

Each pale-walled room smelled faintly of soft perfume

That we receive from Th ee each day . Bl ess us in Pi Beta Phi."

And the radios in the late hours, as we sat on beds and co nfided in one another. made a cheery background.

The mirrors watched us dress on week ends " How does this look ?" And "May I borrow your rings ?" AU this they heard, resignedly . The pictu res on the bulIetm boards _ We knew parents and fnends And felt closer through "nlls is my brother, Bill , when be "(as ten."

THE MAY ARROW

She had books to you, a story she wanted you to read, a poem she had cl ipped into h e r scrapbook, a new dress for you to admire, a button for you to fasten , And a room was a room and that was all without her . without each girl. Upstai rs we were really sisters. Our own territory. Se lfGovernment. Quiet bours . Our own country. And we , the inhabitants , were also siste rs. We partied.

The stomping up four flights of stairs and the buzz before meeting Then the lights low, and the candles burning . Unison. Together we spoke the lovely words. Sincerely. In unison. The rap of the gavel . , discussions voting contributions . electi o ns. All this was chapter meeting .

The long high-ceilinged room became a wooded greenland, lighted With tapers, shining with white -robed ladies. Initiation.

Th e soft hum of the preliminary tune, with its promise of hopes fulfilled The double line of attentive actives , each holding the green roping Twined leav es. Twined spirits . Ideals voiced once more to Be remembered forever.

Fraternity Sponsors Forty-three Destitute European Children

By MARY ELIZABETH BARNETTE, Ohio A

TH E RECENT WAR has left the world an inheritance of destruction and famine which , if unchecked, can injure Or destroy its victims as comp letely and viciously as an atom

youngsters of Europe It is a natural post -war endeavor for the organization which established a Settlement School to assist th e needy in the vicinity of Gatlinburg, Tenn. , and which for the war's duration provided vital Physio-Therapy Scholarships.

The mechani sm for carrying out the fraternity plan was available in the Save the Children Federation , Inc., with headquarters in New York City, and when the necessary investigations were made , it was discovered that the $4,500, which Pi Beta Phi had available, would he sufficient to maintain forty-three children for a full year . Three programs, an Emergency Clothing Fund, an "Adopt" a Shattered School plan , and a Sponsor a Stricken Child activity, are conducted by the Federation, and Pi Beta Phi decided to participate in the latter.

In the most severely aHected countries of France, Belgium, Holland , and Finland, $96 will provide a child with the basic essentials of food, clothing, and other important supplementary aids to health for a year. In order to place the relationship between sponsor and youngster on the most personal basis possible, the name, picture, and description of the child ace supplied to the sponsor, and correspondence between the two is encouraged.

In fact, in its own small way, it is to be hoped that such exchange will make a contribution to world understanding as well as to the welfare of individual children.

Pi Beta Phi's own program for handling this activity has been to assign individual sponsorbomb. Hunger damages the mind as well as ships to each of the ten a1umn", clubs and six the body, and prolonged malnutrition makes active chapters which contributed most to the efforts to educate children and adults alike, vir- Physio-Therapy Scholarships, and further to tuaIly futile tasks If today's children are to assign two children to each province.

These groups have been given the privilege of selecting nationality, age, and sex of their youngsters, and all chapters and dubs will be kept fully informed of the progress of the province sponsored children by province presidents and vice.presidents.

In the United States where today $96 is not an unusual price tag to see on a single item of clothing, it is difficult to realize that the same sum can mean the difference between life and death for one of Europe's children and most certainly can determine whether or not he will reach maturity with a strong body and keen mind. But then it is also difficult to believe that, according to the Secretary of Agriculture, the people of the United States regularly waste one-fifth as much food as they eat or enough to feed more than 25,000,000 people.

As Howard E. Kershner, vice-chairman of the Save the Children Federation, wrote in an article for the New York Timn last year: "I am not suggesting that we do without anything we [eally need. If we would mobilize what we waste, it would suffice."

He further commented: " When I saw chil-

dren in schools without paper to write on, I thought of the white paper that goes into our waste baskets and the unused ootebooks and tablets that dutter our homes, offices, and schools. When I saw children without pendls or slate pencils trying to do their arithmetic on pieces of broken slate shingles that they had picked up from destroyed roofs, I thought of the idle pencils in this country, worn down to

about four inches and accumulating in our desks or thrown into our waste baskets . If we could collect them, millions of them, every child would have something to write with."

Aid of the most basic kind co ntributing to the general welfare of children without regard to race Or has been the mission of the Federation, which was organized in 1932 and is the United States member of the Save the Children International Union of Until the outbreak of the second World War its efforts were concentrated in the disadvantaged rural areas of this country, but at tbat time activities were extended overseas.

The magnitude of the work can be indicated by statistics showing, for example, that after the blitz on England , American sponsorships were arranged for Over 12,000 British children and that over 300,000 pounds of dothing were sent

to England; but statistics, however imposing, do not ""gin to demonstrate the value of this work in the imm easurable qualities of lives saved and happiness created.

What Pi Beta Phi's contribution will mean to the forty. three youngsters its money will support in the year to come is difficult to bracket in a few concise words. However, can· sider the facts that 20% of the Finnish chilo dren cannot attend school ""cause of lack of clothes, that in Holland 400 schools were wiped out, schools and homes are cold because there is no glass in their windows and no industry to make it, and 400 calories was the pitiful ration allowed during the last two months of enemy occupation, and that in Belgium 360 sc hools were destroyed and twice that many made inhabitable . Consider those facts and it follows that $96 is the equivalent of the Four Freedoms to each child who is sponsored through the Federation.

In its capacity as a national organization Pi Beta Phi has initiated an activity which could, with unquestionable justifi ca tion, be extended by individual chapters , alumn., clubs, and members. The contribution of a dollar will clothe a child whereas the still comparatively small sum of $150 will maintain an entire

school. Cash contributions and sponsorship funds should "" sent to Save the Children Federation, Inc. , 1 Madison Avenue, New York 10, N .Y ., and gifts of clothing and other co mmodities, such as food in tins, should "" carefully packed and shipped to the Save the Children Federation Workroom, 8 Washington Place, New York 3, N Y.

The clubs and chapters , in particular, can assist in further publicizing the work of the Federation by arranging for showiQgs of the 16 mm. sound film, "Children of Tragedy," which can be rented from the Moldison Avenue office for $2 .50. Narrated by Dr. Kershner, film actor Charles Boyer, and former President Herbert Hoover, it leaves no doubt as to desperate condition of thousand s of European children , the inadequacy of their food and clothing, and the destru c tion or'their homes, classrooms, and churches.

While American children of comparable ages have been flourishing in the security of the United States , these babies and their still young brothers and sisters have been undergoing more hardships than the average American does in an entire lifetime . Pi Phis can do no less than share with th e m the precious commodities of hea lth , education, and security.

DURING the War Pi Phis from all chapters un5elfishly gave their skill and time to the needs of their country. Many joined various branches of the armed forces, worked through the Red Cross, entered hospitals as Nurses Aides, donated blood, rolled bandages, worked in factories, spotted planes, not to mention the countless other war activities for which they recei ved no remuneration other than a dear conscience and knowledge of performing service for their country.

"Now in tinae of peace there· is another joh vital to the world The children of the world need help-the children who will "" the adults • of tomorrow and into whose hands will fall the responsibility of one day carrying on the policies which the peace·loving nations of the world are now farf\lulating. Such a responsi-

But the children who must one day shoulder this task are today either starving to death, or surviving on a meager diet which will render them physically and mentally incompetent. The United States gave hundreds of tons of grain and food·stuffs and so prevents a famine of tragic proportions, but thousands of people are still existing on starvation diets. Until you see it with your own eyes, it is hard to imagine these children with the gaunt faces , with each rib visible in the little bodies-no shoes, no shirts--picking up cigarette butts to se ll on the black market, gleaning the fields for every stray wisp of grain.

HOLT HOUSE

Needs for Holt House

The newly elected Holt House Committee has recently held its first meeting at the House. Some of the members had had the privilege of visiting it before, but those who had not were as deeply impressed as the others, by the simplicity, charm and period settings, which corre· spond with those when two of our Founders, Ada Bruen and Libbie Brook, lived in the southwest bedroom and planned a national fraternity which l ater was named Pi Beta Phi.

Holt House is typical of the colomal type of homes of 1860 and stands very stately and proud , full of traditions and enshrined with memories . How nice it would be if every Pi Phi could visit the House and feel the presence of our Founders. as girls like themselves, going up and down the same stairs as were there then, to the privacy of their room. It is like visiting Mt. Vernon or Monticello where deep memories of our country are held, only at Holt Hou se you know that not everyo ne can have the privilege of feeling a part of it, for it belongs only to those who are Pi Phi s!

It has been a short time, relatively, since the . House has been purchased and restored_ Many Pi Phis ask, "Is there any of the original house still there?" There certainly is! The old foundation and strong beams that support the House were found most adequate and stronger than in many homes built in Our generation. Even, the architectural detail of the porches, with their twin piUars at each corner, remain unchanged. The old-fashioned narrOw Bight of stai!s,with its polished rail and slender balusters and white woodwork, has been preserved. Only necessary

changes and impro ve ments such as, new floors, new plaster, and redecorations have been made.

Since the House is solely supported by contributions from alumnre clubs, active chapters, and individuals, much credit shou ld be given to the previous Holt House Committees for all they have accomplished with small donations . No one thought in 1940, when it was voted at Convention to purchase and restore the home of Ollr founding, that anything could prevent hay · ing the House completely furnished within a few years . But the war came and brought changes to everyone. Many needed improve · ments have had to wait. The committee wishes that it could now complete the furnishings of the three unfinished rooms. This can not be done without larger contributions to the Fund. Whether you are a student, business girl, or house-wife, you know that living costs have greatly risen. The maintenance of Holt Hou se has risen also. To carry on to the comp letion of Holt Hou se, its committee has to depend on you . Every Pi Phi has pride and sincere interest in Holt House, and those who have had the privilege of seeing it, leave with loving memories. With your help, the committee plans to complete the furnishings, and hope that all Pi Phi s may some time visit this shrine to the founding of our fraternity, and feel that in some way, they have contributed to its final restoration.

From the Philippines

H ere is a letter dated August 1, 1946 (but only received in January) fro m Sally Gibson Robie, New York 6 :

".My husband and I are having an interesting time here in Dava o. Merle left home October 18 of last year; an d I left New York February 23 of last year, and came out by ship through the Panama Canal, to H o no lulu and Shanghai From there I flew to Manil a, arriving April 12.

My husband's business is the buying of abaca (Manila hemp), also copra and many side lines, with headquarters here in Davao. For three months now rv e been the only American or English woman here. There are 20 or 30 men here, and only one other Ameri can mess until recently, except for the one the 'th Army boys have.

We fly back and forth to Manila and all ovec th e Is lands It 's an interesting experience; but not a place to live indefinitely, and not a good place to bring up children in---even if we do have seven servants!

If other Pi Phis are ou t here, let me know. Grace Agnew, New York .0., is a Red Cross worker south of Manila- I have talked to her on the phone. and hope to fly down to her.

Some time when you're writing Massachusetts B, please tell them I am using all the pyrex dishes they gave me--di s hes and everything else have a much higber value because it is hard to get them. We .fly much of our food down from Manila. Rice is the main food of the natives here. and it is very haed to get, so peop le are beginning to feel the pinch."

(Mes Merle S.) Sally Gibson Robie Care Columbian Rope Company. Box 288, Davao, Philippine Islands.

pj Phi s of D C. A were among the friends who gathered to honor Mrs Howard l. Hodgkins, long time patroness of District of Columbia A, and widow o f a former president of George Washington Univers ity, at a tea in honor of her eightieth birthday, January I, 19 47. She belonged to a devoted group of

patronesses who worked with that chapter faithfully f or years-among them were Mrs Royal Bradfo rd (mother o f Elise Bradford Johnson former Grand President, 0), Mrs. William Allen Wilbur (mother of the late Beth Wilbur Parks, D.C. A), and Mrs Sanford Taylor (mother of the ARRow Editor).

Patricia Garrott, T ens B , is editor in ch ief of berns, publication of the Federal Reserve Bank of Dallas, T exas. An editorial of hers was recently honored by the Reconstruction Finance Corporation, with congratulation .

Pat is the daughter of Suzanne Roberts Garrott, Arkansas A. and has a Texas A sister, too.

Dorothy Shands , Louisiana A, is in Washington, in charge of th e Membership Promotion Departm ent o f the "National Planning Association," a not for profit organization which is based on the thesis that planning for peace should be the concern of all Americans, not of the government alone. Her work there follows an interesting war career with the Red Cross , which took her all over Europe, doing work of all kinds in the wake of the Armies. Her Overseas Service Certificate has this citation, "in recognition and appreciation of faithful and meritorious performance of Humanitarian Service, as a repre sentative of the American Red Cross."

From Ethel Redpath Ellingston, Illinois B, comes word that her husband, Harry Ellingston. is now president of the Adventurers' Club. Ethel will be remembered as business manager of the Convention Daily at Pasadena in 1940.

Again Genevieve Hendricks. Wisconsin A, nati ona lly famous decorator, has done a fine piece of work, the colorful redecoration of the library and cocktail lounge of the Un iversity Club, in Washington, D C.

JAYNE SHOVER , Uniled To Fighl Cerebral PallY, in The Crippled Child, October, 1946. By inclination, training, and experience Jayne Shover is well equipped to discuss the problem of ce rebral palsy, a foremost cause of cripp l ing

gram realized through a recognition by the public that cerebral palsy is a problem not to be left for solution solely to the cerebral palsied themselves and their parents but to be met with all the resources and means that can be pro· vided.

"The goal of a national program should be to insure that degree of application of knowledge as it pertains to this problem, which would guara ntee optimal adjustment, care, and re· habilitation (or each and every cerebral palsied person, wherever he may live, whatever may be his age, his sex, his color, the economic status of his parents, or the degree of severity of his handicap."

With this expression of the goal of her work and that of the cerebral palsy division of the National Society, Miss Shover proceeds in the article to detail the tasks accomplished and yet to be surmounted . The division itself is pro· vided with the best · available professional counsel; representative parents of palsied chil· dren have been organized in an advisory capacity to m ake recommendations for the improvement and extension of the program, and the local units of the Society are developing specific aids to the palsied.

For examp le, demonstration clinics and insti· tutes have been held to further the work, and there is a positive program to publicize the probconditions and one which has affected more than lems and the right approaches to their solution 400,000 persons in the nation.

The author explains accordingly: "Out of its occupational therapists, physical therapists, experience with these severely handicapped per- medical social workers, specialists in speech and sons grew a philosophy which has found ex- hearing, and other prof<ssional personnel to pression in the Society's recently officially work with ce«bral palsied children. It is also adopted statement of a National Program for required for research to determine better Cerebral Palsy.

and for the preparation of sound movies, exhibits , and other literature on cerebral palsy.

Specifically the work now h<ing carried on provides: consultation by specialists in medical cace, physical therapy, occupational therapy, speech and hearing therapy, psychological services, social services , edu cation, recreational services , and vocational and employment service s; and special assistance in organizing facilities for the care and rehabilitation of cerebral palsied persons, including nursery schools, children's rehabilitation centers, clinics, hospitaJ schools, curative workshops , and others.

The National Society for Crippled Children and Adults, located at 11 South LaSalle Street , Chicago 3, Illinois, can supply additional and more detailed information regarding its activities , the type of training required for persons interested in an ultimate job in the field. and the other phases of the prog ra m in which persons may be interested.

AU1HOR INTEREST: Sin ce Jayne Shover was graduated from the University of Iowa where she was a member of the Pi Phi chapter there and where she received both her B.A. and her M.A in clinical psychology and speech pathology, she has studied in European countries, Northwestern University, the University of Chicago, and the University of Wisconsin medical schoo!. Prior to taking the position as head of the cerebral palsy division of the National Society for Crippled Children and Adults, she was acting director of the Society's fie! d services.

In addition she has h<en supervising psychologist of speech and hearing and special education director of the Illinois Division of Services for Crippled Children, consultant to the Illinois Commission for Handicapped Children, and director of speech and hearing for East Chicago public schools .

In addition to Pi Beta Phi she counts among the organizations in which she is interested: American Speech Correction Association, American Public Health Association, American Society for the Hard of Hearing, Phi Delta Gamma, Psi Chi, and the International Council for Exceptional Children.

For persons interested in making their careers in this field she offered definite encouragement in a recent message, saying: "Nationally speak-

Sarah Pomeroy Rugg, editor of the ARROW from 1911 to 1921, and her husband , Francis A. Rugg, have recently published an illustrated calendar which demonstrates their love of the state in which they live and their recognition that its beauties and historical atmosphere give pleasure to many other persons as well.

The page for each month is enhan ced by an appropriate illustration selected from among Mr. Rugg's photographic studies , and every picture is accompanied by a pertinent quotation selected by Mrs. Rugg . Attractively printed in sepia, the calendar offers as much in the way of charm as it does of usefulness, and the illustrations will make it a valued possession long after 1947 is a year of the past.

AUTHOR INTEREST: For the past thirteen summers Mrs. Rugg, an alumna of Massa· chusetts Alpha at Boston University, and her husband have maintained the Carriage House Studio in Arlington, and according to Mrs. Rugg the studio aroused lively interest among Pi Phis with whom she talked at last June's convention. Hence she felt that the calendar, which is to be published annually, would be of interest to those and others as well.

RANDOM NOTES: For women's clubs and other similar groups Mrs. Douglas Meredith, a member of the University of Vermont chap· ter and now a resident of Montpelier, Vt., has written a one-act play, "A Cinderella Kitchen." Filled with pleasant, homely humor and un· complicated in structure, it is ideal for amateur drama groups.

Irene McFadden Kingston (Mrs. George B.), Michigan B, whose home is in Grand Rapids. Mich., has had a number of poems published recently in the Michigan Quarterly Review of the University of Michigan.

About half of our class come from small country s c hool s in nearby communities. Nin a Sue McCarter, St e lla Ownby, Ray Dodgen, Jimmy Moore, and Faye and R ay King , the twins of our cl .. s, and Berty June Carr, an honor roll student, come from Bann e r, a little rural community near Gatlinburg and all of these students come to schoo l by bus Joyce McCarter , Mary Newman , Betty Cantrell, BObby Conner, and Jack Grooms live in the Glades, a sett lement near Gatlinburg. A "glade," as you know, is a clearing or an open space in the woods and that is just what the "G lades" is. Junior O gle, along with Wanda Huskey, comes from Carter Town, l ocated between Gatlinburg a nd tM Glades. Mil dred Ward and Charles Mapl es come from Pigeon Forge , a village half· way betv.etn Gatlinburg and Sevierville. Paulin e Whal ey who comes from Caney Creek &bool, recently moved to Gatlinburg. Jean Huskey comes from Wears Valley . a typical mountain community located in a valley with high moun · tains completely hemming it in. Bertha Marine, another of our honor roll students , comes from Laurel Lick. Without these students from other scboo ls the freshman class would be only half as lar ge as it is.

There are five gi rl s and one boy in our class who stay in the school dmmitory. They stay there because they live so f ar away that it js im· possible for them to be t ransported to and from scbooL They e njoy living on campus because they have ni ce rooms and congenial company and because by doing SO it is possible for them to attend hig h schooL For instance, Lois Starkey a nd Robert Walker who stay in the dormitory live in Laurel Lick, a little community about eleven miles from Gatl inburg To reach their homes in Laurel Lick they ride by bus to Pigeon Forge and walk about four miles over a mountain trail across Pine Mountain . Jane Love's home is in Sevierville and she could have gone to Sevierville Hi g h School but Jane knew what the Pi Beta Phi High School was like so she decided to come here .

I don 't know how the others feel, but to me going to Pi Beta Phi Hi gh School is a privjJege a nd a n honor. Ju st look at the advantages we have. If it were not for the P i Beta Phi Fra· ternity we would not have Mr . Johnson , the physical education director, who has given the school winning basket ball teams this year and

who teaches every student physical education They also give us Mrs. Armstrong, our music teacher, who not only teacbes us aU commuruty singing but also directs a robed Glee Oub made up of rugh school boys and girls who sing on many occasions and for various organizations .

I am thankful, too, that the Pi Beta Phis chose so interesting and beautiful a place as Gatlin· burg, in the m idst of the Great Smokies, in which to locate their school. Studying, learning and playing in such beautiful surroundings and in such a good school helps us all, I am sure, to keep happy and interested in schooL We as fre shman, are looking forward to our next three years with much anticipation, for we know that our years in Pi Beta Phi High School will be the happiest of aU our lives.

SILLY SOPHOMORES GROWING UP

By GERALDINE Fox

Little thinking and I dare say, little caring about whether they came to school or not, because after all it was lovely outside, the class of '49 first ent<red the portals of Pi Beta Phi High ScbooL Just forty.three little freshmen agai nst the world . They were ready and for the most willing, to begin their journey up the

ladder of learning. as it is sometimes called. Now, I corne to the more recent chapter of my story. When the sophomores came back to school in September, 1946, certain members of the class started progressing more. Everyone took more inter es t in his studies, although th e y still had a line capacity for making noise. As in all classes, some people like one subject better than another. In the sophomore class this is especially pronounced.

The one subject which is the general favorite is English, especially the study of literature. (The least said about grammar the better.) At the present time the class is reading A Tal, of Two Cilin by Charles Dickens. The twins of the class, Roy and Ralph Maples, have taken a decided interest in the story, going so far as to carve miniature figures from wood of a stage· coach, coachman, houses , a French revolution is t and a bloody guillotine Billy Joe Gregg, an out of town boy who lives at the dormitory, and CaJvin BarksdaJe, the vice .p resident of the dass, have been very helpful in looking up the his· torical background of the story. We get loads of fun from the tactics of Jerry Cruncher and his spiky hair. And we find Dickens' twisted hints aod complicated facts require not only a quick brain but a lot of studying also. Before we finish the story each member of the class is going to make a setting for a scene, a character, or a sketch of one character.

The sophomores also enjoy the library very much. We bave the Pi Beta Phi Fraternity to thank for many books and magazincs to quench

the reading thirst of many students. We not only have fiction , biographies, poetry, history, and philosophy in books but through the gener· ous contributions of the Pi Phis we are building up a fine library of recordings.

We also have in the library a selection of current magazines including Life, Science DigeJI, Collier'J, Sdlllrday Evening POJI, and many others. We get a daily newspaper too and through these we learn of current events and thereby keep up with the world. We also have a file of Natl/re, National Georgraphic, ForJune , Tra1Jel, and Po plliar Science which we use for reference material in Ollr various classes. Other gifts we received for Christmas besides money were a new set of !IVorld B oo k Encycl opedia and a 1947 Funk and !IVdgnali Unabridged Dieliondry given by the Lions Club of Gatlinburg.

Coming back to the sophomores I couldn ' t leave out the class officers. The class president is Faye Huskey, a very quiet, dignified girl who is very intelligent and studious. The vice-president, Calvin Barksdale, especially likes -history. The secretary and treasurer are Grace Ogle and Lee Johnson, Jr Grace is a tall, cool, frecklefaced girl, and Lee is a fr esh, sun·shiney, person. Although perhaps some of the sophomores are careless and others thoughtless and not quite grown up yet, they are all glad of the opportunity to attend the Pi Beta Phi High School.

JUNIOR CLASS, THE IR PAST, PRESENT AND FUTURE

By BARBARA HUFF

Be ing Juniors, we think the Junior Class is the best in the school, but we'll give you the facts and let you decide for yourself.

As freshmen , the first important event, at least for the girls, was when they were invited to join the Home Economics Club. All the girls in the class entered enthusiastically into this activity. Initiation ceremonies got underway and the girls came to school dressed every way imaginable-some had their hair braided )0 thirty or more pigtails, wore red flannel underwear , short s1cirts, had painted faces, potato necklaces, alarm-clocks, chickens, dogs, cats, and many more amusing things. Then at night there was a judge and jury assigning each one some task to fullill. Following this came a candle lighting ceremony after which the initiates were fujI fledged members of the Future Homemakers of America.

Spring came and with it carne "Field Day." That was something new but it was explained to us that all the classes picked teams and individuals to enter races, relays, broad jumps, high

by

jumps, dart thcowing, tug-o-war and other events. The big day came with the freshmen "rarin to go" and ended with many wins.

Along came fall-1946-with a new name-"juniors"-which we lik e much better than the other two. The sponso r of the class is Mrs. Ann Wheeler Lighter; president, Barbara Huff ; vicepresident, Joe Howell; secretary, Anna Ma e Maples and treasurer, Louise Cole.

This year Roberta Bell, junior, is president of the F. H. A. Club and at a sub-district meeting another Junior , Dot Mill er, won distinction when she was elected news reporter for the whole district. A Y-Teen Club has been organized in our high school. Miss Helen Borgstrom is the sponso r-th ree junior girls, Louise Cole, Dot Miller and Barbara Huff are officers in this group. "The National Beta Club," a national honor soc iety, was also organized, only students with an average above ninety who are approved by the princi pal are eligible. In the present membership of the club seven out of the nine members are Juniors and there are more Juniors now eligible for membership.

In the Junior Class there were only two people who failed one subject last semester which was the best record in the whole school. The Junior Class also had a bigger percentage on the honor roll than any other class.

This year our class has had to think more about raising money for in the spring the Junior s are to give the Seniors a formal banquet at one of the hotels. Then next year the class hopes to go on a class trip to California. The first thing the Juniors did to ea rn money for their treasury was to have an old fashioned "Pie and Box Supper." Everyone ca me and had a wonderful time and after it was over the Juniors counted the proceeds and found they were richer by· $133.00.

We, the Junior Class, are sure we express the

(eelings of all of the students when we tell you the Pi Phis, how much we appreciate all that you have done and are doing for us. This school has given us an opportunity to get the education we need in order to go to colJege or whatever we plan to do. The music department is teach· ing us the appreciation of good music, the physi. ca l education activities are teaching us good sportsmanship and are helping us to be healthier boys and girls. The arts and crafts department is teaching us how to make our hands useful and the ones who don't enjoy academic subjects so much can learn to use their hands. All the other studies also help us immensely. We want to express our thanks to you for the wonderful work you h ave done and are still doing.

THE SENIOR CLASS

By JUANITA WILSON

Four years ago thirty-one Freshmen entered Pi Beta Phi High School, and today only twelve of us remain. Various things hOlve happened to the others-the war took many moved away because of the wac, two were married. and some have gone to other schools. Those of us who are left are very proud of the fact that soon we will be Pi Beta Phi graduates, and can take our place in the world as more capable men and women because of it. There are some outstanding students in the class and we are sure that they will make an important name for themselves in whatever field of endeavor they choose.

The president of our class, Jim Parton, is one of the most likeable and capable students in school. He has been in the Pi Beta Phi Settle· ment School for six years and has been gaining in popularity each year. We feel sure Duke University will be proud to welcome him this fall when he enters to study journalism.

Earl Oakley, our vice·president has attended ,<chool here since he was • tiny blond·headed

boy in the beginner's class, and there isn't any· one iI;1 the class as proud of the school as Earl is. He is especially good in science. Recently he has been nominated for the Beta Club, aNa· tional Honor society . Earl's father is the Mayor of Gatlinburg and has been an active member of the county school board. With Earl's excellent speaking voice as well as his many other outstanding qualities we wouldn't be surprised if someday he will be elected to Congress, Or some other high office. This fall he plans to enter TuscuJum College at Greenville. Tennessee.

Jonnie Maples. oUf secretary and treasurer is one of the most popular girls in town. Last year she was elected the best all around girl in school. She is active in club work and in all sports. Jonnie went to school for two years in North Carolina, but she still prefers Pi Beta Phi and was glad to come back. The cheer leaders in North Carolina had been especially interesting to her, and upon her return to Gatlinburg she organized a group of cheer leaders here. They did a grand job last year, and are doing an even better one this year. In college she is going to study business administration and hopes some· day to have a business of her own in Gatlinburg. Louise McCarter was our class president last year and was selected as the best all around girl when she was a sophomore. She has been on the basketball team for four years and is the co· captain this year. Miss Elizabeth Petrie is well pleased with the excellent work she does in crafts and she is also a very outstanding mathe· matics student. She is an active member of the Glee Club as well as most of the other clubs in school. This fall she will enter Lincoln Memorial University where she wilJ study business administration and where she hopes to get her Master's degree in mathematics.

Harmon McCarter. the only veteran in our school, spent two and a half years in the United States Navy, most of this time being spent in the South Pacific. Despite the fact that he was out of school for over two years he is doing very well in his class work, and is an excellent for· ward on the basketball team. This fall he plans to enter the University of Tennessee.

Roy Ogle is another boy who has gone to Pi Beta Phi ever since he started to school. He has been in a number of plays in high school and is one of the most popular players on the basket· ball team. He is also very popular among the girls as he is one of the handsomest boys in school. Roy has not decided what he will dOle!, but we hope he will enter a university this all.

Joanna Parton is one of the prettiest girls in school as well as the sister of our class president. She is a good singer and is espe?ally IOterested in the arts and cedts class Thu fall she is going

to art school to study commercial art. She has been an efficient member of the student council and has hem active in the other activities in which she has participated.

Lonnie Trentham is another basketball star, and is much in demand in all the social affairs in school as he is always the "life of the party."

Myrtle Whaley is another member of our class who has been selected as the best all round gi rl in the school, and she has also won the scholarship award. We are very proud of Myrtle because she was brave enough to come back to finish school after being out for four years. Myrtle has always been On the school honor roll and is now a member of the Beta Club . She plans to take a business cou rse after graduation.

Hoover Cardwell is one of our most popular boys and he always has many original ideas of his own He has done very well in the woodworking class, which seems to be his favorite. This fall he will enter the University of Tennessee.

Eva Ogle is very much interested in the Home Economics class and plans to go on with her study of foods at Austin Peay College in Nash -

Music in the Mountains

ville this fall. Eva is a sweet, comical little person and has been the originator of many a prank during our years together, but she has always remained an honor roll student. Eva and I are especially good friends because we both live in the school dormitory . Here we have spent many happy days, and we feel that we have a definite advantage over the other students who do not live on campus. It is just like being in a big family We deeply appreciate being able to live in the dormitory and shall always be grateful to the Pi Phis for giving us such a nice place in which to live and work.

In a few months we will all be leaving high school to go our separate ways in the world. I know that we will always have very happy memories of school days and be very grateful to our fine teachers for their belp. We are also deeply indebted to the Pi Phis for making it possible for us to have extra subjects such as crafts, music, and physical education. Every member of the Senior aass is thankful for these extra opportunities for study and enjoyment and wish to express tbeir deep appreciation.

Our mountains are like the thrilling music of a mighty organ. Along the Potomac the melody starts faintly as the Master Organist presses the stop dulciana and the cadence falls over the softly rolling hiJIs of Kentucky. In the Virginia uplands the harmony grows in volume and tempo quickens. reaching a soaring crescendo in Tennessee and North Carolina. the organist pulls out the diapason on the great organ as the towering Smokies push their peaks into the very face of the sun. The music lessens to diminuendo among the pastel beauties of the Blue Ridge and, reaching Alabama and Georgia, the vox humana sings its nostalgic theme, dying away as.the echo organ is heard .

So is there music in the souls and in the voices of our Southern mountain people. Among the elders, the speaking voice is often plaintively sweet, pitched in minor key, but among the younger ones, soft and melodious often with a lilt seldom heard elsewhere.

We assume an inherent love of music- in every normal child and along with it some instinct for its expression. But here in the mountains, where for so long music represented not only a means of emotional expression but recreation in an area isolated from the outer world, Youth gives an even readier response to music.

It h.., been said tbat in the field of music, the

Southern Mountaineer has made his greatest contribution, as he has kept alive the AngloAmerican ballad, carol, and folk-song. So it seems especially imperative that our present generation shall know, value, and perpetuate these noble songs.

Rem ember, however, that there is a vast difference between these folk-songs, whose excellent tunes and powerful poetic verses have proved their worth, and the so-caUed '·hill· billy" songs which dominate many programs. Exposed daily to these inferior artificial musical impressions, the young people, natural ly rhythmic and music-loving, are fearfully well informed of the former but are sadly ignorant of the beautiful songs which are their real treasures.

In our major effort to help our students regain their rightful heritage, we have found the glorious-toned Majestic radio-phonograpb com. bination given by the Pi Beta Phi Fraternity, an indispensable ally. Here we can them with the melody, the appeal of folk-songs. Here the songs are beautifully and correctly sung . As they play the record again and again the youngsters begin to along. We believe any child can be taught to SlOg by ear, just as he is taught to speak, and can later on be taught to read musIC .., it is presented by way of the songbook.

Especially with the Stephen Foster Album, we have by means of records so quickened interest that our pupils not only love to sing the songs, but turn to the better radio programs in order to report their use . In addition, interest in Foste r's song and life has inspired original projects in several elementary grades .

The older boys have proved very diffi cu lt in the matter of enlisting in chorus work. We have found that recordin gs of fine male choruses have done mu ch to dispel the legend that "singing is sissy," In one class where the boys refused to sing, we hit upon the idea of a dass song. We, COllectively, wrote the lyrics, extolling the merits of a really fine basketball team . It worked like magic and lusty male participation proved that a move toward the joy of singing had been made.

In the accompanying group picture the elementary grade has been studying a recording of a two-part arrangement of "Home Sweet Home ." They first listened to the pleasing effect of two soft, sweet voices. Then they studied the celation of the two voices, finally singing along with the soprano and then the alto voice. This method is of invaluable aid for here uni son singing is universally practiced, (although when I first came it was boasted that they had quartettes-even.an octette-which I discovered to mean four or eight people stood together and sang the same part). This class, by the way, was the very first to do two·part singing and actually read notes of the two parts. Their singing of old French carols was an outstanding achievtdlent of the Christmas program.

In our mass-singing among the High School group, we use many of the better popular songs and are elated to lind more and more of the pupils entering in with enthusiasm. One of the most popular scores is the " Oklahoma" album with its many hit tunes . Several such albums

have been presented as memorial gi fts , from f ciend s among the Pi Phis and we can assure you th ey 3re being u sed to excellent advantage .

Truly the rich-toned Majestic Phonograph is provin g a tremendous help as we crusade in behalf of these objectives of th e Music depart· ment:

To give these wonderfully .e ndowed students the emotional lift, the enjoyment that music provid es .

To enable them to use their voi ces correctly, developing them, safe-guarding them into maturity .

To give an opportunity for self·expression and an outlet for the creative urge .

To gain ability to read music, and discrimi",tion that the pupil may be independent in selection.

Finally to promote the feeling of co ·operation and service through group activity, and the con· tribution of skill to be enjoyed in home, church and community.

This last aim is being realized increasingly. The elementary chorus has made several ap· pearances, singing for P.T.A . meetings and for the school Open House program. The various groups are often presented at the Weavers' m eetings while the Glee Club has sung at many community gatherings-at Thanksgiving services, at various churches. I n no small way do our students aid the local church choirs and several are now being coached to do solo work .

Together we are striving to make our community GOOD MUS IC conscious and aware of that vast and noble treasure they possess, and of which the bard sings-

"That o ld and antique song we heard last night; Meth ought it did relieve my passion much, More than light airs and reco llected terms Of the se most brisk and giddy -pa ced times ." Shakespear e

We were in the midst of preparations for the January Bridle when I wrote my last letter for the Auow. It took place on Saturd., afternoon, J.nu.ry 14, at the Panhellenic house on Commonweath AvenUf .od was fun for all of w who were there to p.rtake of the refreshments which .were prepartd b, our president Betty Smith Ind Ex-President Maywood Kenney. The lucky ptlze winners glo.ted happily over their loot of Settlement School hearth brooms and hot pl.te mats. The pr06t m.de .t this meetinl was turned met to the activities in rcco,n it ioo of Chapter Loyalty 0.,Enctl, one month later thirty·six .1ums answered the call of our formal Initiation Banquet in itati01lS On Februarv 14 six new members were initiattd into Massachusetts A and they, with twenty·two actives, joined with the alwns in a memora· ble evenin,. The hanquet was the first that our actives have allowed themselves in 6..e ,ears so it was all new to the acti es and for this reason all the more impressive. It was a lreat surprize for Anna Robinson Nickerson when our Scholarship Chairm.n, Bttsey Scott Wat2:inger, an· nounced the establishment of the two new $25 .00 annual awards in her honor. One is to be given to the Air! with the highest scholastic record and other to the girl who shows the grtatest improvemeot in her ranks.

Now the Annual Medin_ il in the hands of the ProAra.m Committee which has promised us a truly exciting afternoon on Saturday, March 22. Mrs. Howard Selby has offered us her beautiful home on Commonwealth Ave ., Auburndale for this occasion. Mrs. Tyler Thompson is to give us a few glimpses into the religious, political and cultural lives of the Malaynese and Indonese. We are all very enthusiastic al?out this particular event as Mrs. Thompson is a recognized authority in this 6e1d.

Pounders' Day will be celebrated on May 3 at the College Club in Boston to complete our progt&m for this year. loiS W. SWITH

This means too that the blanks shou ld be sent only for the girls who have received the required vote of the Executive Council and the Alumnre Ad visory Committee for approval of initiation.

Chapter treasurers should see that badges are ordered through the Central Office. It takes six weeks or more, under present conditions. to complete badge orders. Badges for prospective memoos should not be ordered until all initiation requirements have been met.

Chapter treasurers should senJ the initiation fee for each initiate with Form GTl to Central Office within three days of initiation. Canadian chapters send initiation fees to the Director of Rushing and Pledge Training.

The corresponding secretary Should report to the Central Office changes in chapter officers if they are made, any time during the year.

When college schedules make it impossible to comply exactly with fraternity calendar dates, chapter officers should contact CentraJ Office, explain the situations, and receive specia l permission t o vary from the established dates.
