HEREAITER Central Office cannot accept ante-dated to the ARROW to include the History. Tbe reason for this is obvious It would certamly not be fair to give a History and three other issues of the ARROW for the regular subscription price of $1.50 when we must charge $2.00 for the History for the History has been set in accordance with the cost of publication and very few COpIes are available.

For the year 1935-36, the Fraternity will offer one graduate fellowship with a value of $500. This fellowship is open to any member of the Fraternity who has received her bacheJor's degree, and it may be used at any university. either in this country or in Europe, which offers special op)'?rtunities in graduate work .long the particular line desired by its holder.

Two points WIll be considered by the Grand Council in awarding the fellowship: scholastic standing and all-round development of character with its resulting ability worthily to represent the Fraternity. Each applicant must state delinitely the university which sbe wishes to enter, the courses which sbe desires to pursue, and the ultimate aim of ber graduate study

Applications accompanied by photograpbs of the applicants, transcripts of college grades, credenti.Js from college professors, and other recommendations must be in the hands of the Grand President not later than January I, 1936.

All material should be collected by the applicant and submitted as a whole. Blank forms for applications for the fellowship may be obtained from the Grand President at any time. If she so desires, any applicant of former years who has not received the fellowsbip may make a new application_

Hereafter, on account of lack of space, it will be impossible to use in the news pages of the ARROW announcements of European tours sponsored by Pi Phis, or similar business enterprises of members of the Fraternity. Such notices belong properly in advertising pages and rates for such space may be had by application to the business manager of the ARROW.

The $7 50 price for life subscriptions to the ARROW will be continued until further notice. All subscriptions are to be sent to the Centru Office.

R EMEMBER THE PI BETA PHI ENDOWMENT!

The enthusiasm with whicb Convention contributed to the Endowment the total of gifts and pledges to within approximately $12,000 of its goal. Surely 26,000 PI Beta Phis can complete the $50,000 by next Convention! Give now! The May ARROW will list all contributors, givi ng the total of each club's, chapter's, or individual's gifts. Send your contribution or pledge to your province representative or to the treasurer of the committee, and belp give the fraternity now the endowment which will mean added prestige for Pi Beta Pbi.

For the year 1935-36 a prize of $25 is oflered for the best chapter history submitted to the National Historian, wbo will be the judge of their excellence.

Hereafter, senior dues from chapters are to be sent to the province president instead of to the province vice-president_

THE ARROW OF PI BETA PHI

S EPT E MBER, 19 36

NUMBER 1

EDITORIAL

OUR CONVENTION in Chicago will live always in the minds of some one thousand people who were privileged to attend as an experience almost too great to be realized while it was going on! Just to see SO many Pi Phis gathered together was in itself startling proof of the strength of the Featernity; to meet and talk with as many of them as possibfe was to feel that not only have we strength in numbers, Dot o::z.:re our chapters injtiating attractive girls, but that Ecom the inteUectuaJ standpoint our m £ship' is most interesting. We who have the privilege of secving the Fraternity as its officers thcilled with pride over the gathering. We may never again have one so since this one drew its attendance from a teuitory where Pi Beta Phi has long been very strong, with many chapters and many alumn., clubs within easy driving radius . It was a Convention long to be remembered .

Those who came to Convention were more than proud and pleased with the display made by the Arrow Craft Shop . The articles were beautifully designed, well chosen for saleable qualities, and through the kindness of the Edgewatee Beach Hotel, they were placed in a prominent glass-enclosed shop directly olf the main lobby . The new designs shown were the work of Miss Redding and Mrs. Snow; but by far the greatest part of the credit must go to Ethel Weaver Snow, Iowa Gamma , director of Arrow Craft, who bas done so much in the short time that she has worked there. She is making Arrow Craft attractive in every way, and financially successful besides To her the Featernity at large owes most grateful thanks and appreciation . We are proud of her .

We have here, as usual. the complete record of the business of Convention, the reo ports of officers, and the reports of dubs and chapters for the interim between Conventions Just ending. You will find it a notable record of achievement in difficult times for the coUel;te world, and of financiaJ stress for the country at large. It was with joy that Grand Council, ID its annual meeting which preceded Convention, reviewed the records of the chapters of the Fraternity. Scholarship has shown a definite advance, and everywhere the chapters seem scholarship -conscious. The competition for the Balfour Cup was unusually close. There were fourteen chaptecs in the Fraternity holding first place in scholarship on their campuses for the period under consideration; theee were twenty chapters having better than ninety per cent ID the standardization and survey report from Central Office. The awards appear elsewhere in these pages, as does the final decision in the Amy B Onken Award for the most outstanding girl in the Fraternity_ In deciding the latter the records of the girls winning the awards in the thirteen active provinces are considered by Grand Council, and this year all thirteen were so nearly perfect, the girls themselves so remarkable in personality and attainments, that a fair decision was very hard. There is much in this number of the ARROW to add to our pride in Pi Beta Phi. and we hope you will read it with interest and enthusiasm .

• • •

W e should all have a vital interest in Panhellenic matters especially in these days when there have been whisperings of unrest on some campuses . The report of our delegate to the National Panhellenic Congress which is given in full in this issue, offers an interesting ex · position of the situation which is being c reated by the adoption of the Quota system on many campuses. We who were at Convention heard it with great interest and we hope it will be carefully read. We are unusually fortunate in having as our delegate a person who so thorou g h. Iy understands the fraternity world as does Miss Onken.

TH E SEPTEMBER ARROW

One of the editor's ambitions has always been to get out an issue of the magazine in Menasha with the George Banta Publishing Company-an ambition realized this summer, but not exactly as planned! Fate, perhaps kind, perhaps unkind, placed her this time in a hospital within one mile of the plant of the Publishing Company, but still as far away as ever from actually following the magazine through the process of The work on this number has been done partly in the editor's room in Theda Clark MemOrIal Hos pital in Neenah, Wisconsin, and partly in a corner of the sun porch of the hospital which was converted into a temr.0rary ollice, aU this because of an automobile accident which crippled her temporarily whi e on a business trip to Menasha. Foe any mistakes or inaccuracies in this number, we crave indulgence, It has been done without files for reference, and with mail forwarded from California irregularly, and consequently with many late reports.

• • •

A pleasant feature of the summer has been the faithful and always interesting visits that the editor has enjoyed from the Pi Phis in the vicinity of Menasha. Among us we have decided that there is almost material for a new a1U1IlflZ club in the Fox River Valley, and we hope some day there may be one.

The editor wishes to offer most gratefu l thanks to her friends in the George Banta Publishing Company for their great kindness to her personally, following her accident. Their constant thoughtfulness and anticipation of every wish throughout an experience which might otherwise have been most unhappy has been one calculated to restore one's sometimes flagging faith in the goodness of human nature, and the kindness of one's friends. She wishes also to thank the Pi Phis all over the country whom it has not been possible to thank directly because of the lack of the use of a right hand, for the wonderful letters which have made the Fraternity mean more than ever before.

Two thousand Cook Books have been distributed!

At fifty cents apiece surely every Pi Phi will want one for herself, for Christmas gifts. shower presents, and bridge prizes.

The Pi Phi Cook Book is a national project. Alumnae clubs may make money for the Settlement School by buying the book in two dozen lots or more at a special price of thirty-five cents apiece, and selling them at lifty cents apiece, making 6fteen cents on each book.

MESSAGE OF THE GRAND PRESIDENT

I N THE three living Pounders whom it is pri· vileged to cherish as it begins the seventieth year of its existence, II B • has a perfect expression of the ideals and standards upon which it was established, and a challenge. obligation, and io· spiration for a rededi cat ion to the principles of Mau l iEul living which they embody. The future of fraternities is no longer to be determined upon the basis of outside opposition or internal organization, but instead upon the basis of their adhermce to the [undameotal ideals which are their comer· stonc. Perhaps never before since fraternities for women began in 1867 has there been a greater menace to their future than the present tendency of society at large to substitute the things that "are accepted"-that "get by"-for wbich are truly acceptable. The relations of fraternity chapter life are so close and so cherished that their pos· sibilities for good and evil in the lives of their undergraduate members are unlimited-but they will mean either good or evil; they cannot mean both No other organization today reaches the hearts of college women as a fraternity does, and on many campuses no other brings them ideals and helps them work t owa rd attaining these. If, during this time of uncertain public standards, fraternities stand fast for the things which are ageless and always vital because they are right and wholesome and fine, they will make for themselves an unassailable place in the educational world If they cease to stand for these things-if they make concessions and substitute customs for standards-they will become not an asset but a liability to any campus and they not only will but should cease to be a part of college life The editor of A A IT said: " The last few years have been hard for practicaUy every fraternity in existence and the solution of their common problem is no more than the time-wo rn, oft-repeated and oft-disregarded force--ideals, We must make our ideals something more than a mere babbling of pretty words; something active-aggressivel, active in fwing the organization in a fighting drive to achieve its aims. Remember-we have ideals that work!" No one who has worked with college gi.rls of the type which is attracted to n B can fail to believe that they have ideals and that they want to find in their fraternity an influence which will strengthen their sometimes rather deeply hidden but almost without exception sincere desire to maintain them. No fraternity has stood more firmly for the things which mean true friendships, worthy service, constructive and fine influences, and beautiful living than has n n 41, but n B 4> can stand only as we, its members , individually and personally stand. Our heritage in the fraternity whicb we received from the past is a priceless one; we shall determine the heritage of the future We cannot escape our respoosibility; let us meet it worthily! I.d: us at this Convention rededicate ourselves-and so. our fraternity - to a Jiving o f the ideals o f n 'B ,

so that we may pus on to those who will fo llow us a fraternity which deserves to be loved and served because it is true to the things which have made it a (raternify without a superior-because it has proved that it has "ideals which work!"

During the past two years, college registrations have shown an interesting increase. So many abnormal factors have entered in to this increase, how. ever that it is hard to know just what it means for fraternities. Reg istratio ns which have been built ur, by federal aid (or students or by carefully panned and expensively executed campaigns to "buy students" through the giving of scholarships so liberal that the whole financial structure of the institutions has bttn weakened seem to have been too artificiaJly stimulated to mean any permanent increases in student bodies. Restrictions upon students receiving fed eral aid have varied surprisingly but on the whole. tbey have meant a decrease in available fratern ity material and, with the quota system, have built up an increasingly large nonfcatemity group of students who, under normal conditions, would have been fraternity members. The situation is one which no fraternity can afford to ignore and one which must definitely enter into its plans for the (uture. On the whole, however, it seems that during the interim of conventions 8eneral fraternity conditions concerned with membership have improved enough to give one confidence that their most critical aspect is in the past. It is with very keen pride that n B cites the fact that during years when students have weighed as never before the relative values of all fraternit ies before affiliating with any. IT B 4> has, each year, incensed the number of its initiates and has more definitely established its position as a leader in the fraternity world.

Confidential reports from deans of women confirm 1M reports of province presidents and chapter delegates which tell of the higb service which chapters are giving their campuses and of the distinction with which they are representinf n B •. Surely officers of the fraternity find ful payment and more for all that they can give in service when deans of women will write of their chapters: "The chapter has been outstanding in its 'good citizenship' this year"; 'The Pi Phis on this campus are .., near perfect as we officials have any right to expect of young human beings"; ''Your chapter has built up such a strong unit that it is an inspiration to work with the girls"; or "We are fi.11lng out ,our questionnaire under the caption suggested 0 'very good: I should .really like to put 'very excellent' down instead of the milder term. I thiok the chapter is having one of the finest phases I have ever known it to have. It is not so spectacular in some ways--that is, in some major offices on the campus-but they are so well-rounded and are taking substantial responsibilities in every pbase of coUege li(e' " A fraternity must both attract excellent material and develop it wisely before it can

merit or receive such recognition from college authorities. Not aU chapters. of course, have so satisfactorily Jived up to their possibilities, but IT B ct can race with confidence any comparison of the strength of its chapters as a whole with that of the chapters o f any other fraternity No chapter is always at its best; a strong fraternity is one which is ahle to its average high and to make the variations downward which rome inevitably to all chapters of all fraternities at some time as slight and as short-lived. as possible. IT B 41 has collsidered the problems of each chapter as individual and personal and not .s routine and identical. During the interim of conventions, methods successfully used in solving problems of chapters have included help with assistance with rushing, payment of tuition for key actives who could otherwise not have been in colJege, and special local supervision by local alumnz to whom executive power was granted. Always there has been a definite effort not to carry responsibility for chapters but to make it possible for them to carry it successfully for

The financial condition of the fraternity continues to be reason for extreme grat ification, even though income from securities has unavoidably decreased as interest rates have fallen and securities bearing high rates of interest have betn called for replacement by those yielding lower returns. The security of trust funds is, of course, always the thing of the greatest importance and n B 4J may well be proud of the Jist of its investments. It is probable that few members of the fraternity are fuJly conscious of the heavy ttSponsibility which its Grand Treasurer must carry. Only rare financial ability and utter devotion to the fraternity in its Grand Treasurer. Lois Pcanldin Stoolman, could have brought the fraternity thus far through the universal financial crisis in a condition 50 unquestionably sound. It seems worthy of mention that when she went into office in 1925, the endowment funds of the fraternity totalled $1 n,ooo .oo and the total assets were $125,000.00 and that for the year jwt ended the endowments totalled and the assets, With the completion of its special $50,000 Endowment, which will come since the fraternity has never yet failed to do any right thing which it has attempted, II B oil should face the future confident that it will be able to maintain its present h igh standard of internal efficiency and its prestige as a fraternity whose service to its chapters and .Iwnnz clubs is exceptional. Every one of the approximately 23,500 subscribers to THE ARl\ow has had personal reason, during the past two years, to be grateful to the Grand Treasurer whose careful supervision of fraternity finances made it possible to publish 'The Directory" and ''The History of Pi Beta Phi" as re$ular issues of THE ARROW and to provide these Without additional cost to 90 per cent of the liv ing members of the Fraternity.

The two new chapters chartem:l by the 1934 Convention-Nova Scotia A and Ontario B-were installed by the Grand President in the faU o f 1934 and have taken their places as stroog chaplers of the fraternity. Both new chapters and chapters with special problems have, as usu.I, been under the s})Kial supervision of the Grand Secrebry. Nita HilJ Stark, whose personal interest and assistance h.ve meant much to them It is a pleasure,

also, to speak of the devoted work o f the local supervisors who have worked so closely with these chapters, under Mrs . Stark's direction.

Although it is the province of the Grand Vice· President to speak of the Alumnae Department , the Grand Pres ident cannot refra in from expressing her conviction of the continued truth o f the oftrepeated comment of officers of other fraternities that U B 4» holds the active int erest of its alumnae in a truly remarkable way. During the past winter, an inter. frat erni ty publication commented on the exceptional record of K K r in having enrolled something less tha n 4,000 alumnz in its alumnae department. At that time, IT B 41 had only slightly less than 6,000 paid members in its alumnae department. The number of paid members is, of course, no final indiation of the number of deeply interested alumnae, since each year there are per. sonal circumstances which take some individual alumnte from the list and put others on it. The things done by alumnr for the Settlement School, the Loan Fund, the active chapters, and the alumnae clubs themselves speale more loudly than any words can speak of the (act that loyalty to n B 4J is a vital part of life for those who are its members. The ability and the vision of the Grand VicePresident, Ruth Barrett Smith, are reflected in the increasing strength of the department whose servo ice she has directed JIIness and outside responsibilities have necessitated several changes in official personnel during the years since the last convention, changes which have taken from the list of officers the names of Katherine Leutwiler Sloan, Assistant to the Grand Treasurer; Helen )0 Roop Adkisson, Supervisor of Chapter Accounting; Florence Barnes Ingraham, Chairman of the Endowment Fund Committee; and Louise Sale Cassady, Mary Hornaday, Adair Taylor Aiken, Elizabeth Carpenter Buxton, Fl orence Allen Smith, Emma Drury Sippel, Hilda Beggs Henry, Ruth Nicholas Sutton, and Dorothy Hunt Dengel, province officers, and have placed there. as their successors, Sara Fisher, Nell Weaver Will, Ceci l Rigby Nussbaum, Vida Peene, Charlotte Martin Fox. Marl'!:aret Glass Altvater, Isabel Oark, Ann Sallie Belle Weller Sydnor, Winifred Smith Paige, and Hazel Murdock Murkland. In losing officers whose devotion had betn proved by constructive service, the fraternity has gained new officers who have arried on successfully that same high service For the devotion which i ts officers and committee chairman and members give so unstintedly , n B 41 has a debt too great to be measured or repaid. The work of the D irector of the Central Office has been an imponant contributing factor in the efficiency of the fraternity's intern.l functioning, and her cooperation and service have been unfailingly prompt, aCCurate, and cheerful! It is a pleasure to share with Convention the fine tribute to the internal organization of IT B • which came to the Grand President. during the past few months, from the president of a chapter on whose campus there was some anti-fraternity agitation. This chapter presiden t wrote: "It is wide-spread that II B cJI has the best internal organization and cooperation of all the chapters on the campus. I have h.d innumerable chapter heads come to me this year askjng for advice and the secret of our success in maintaining such loyal and supporting members But you know as well as

I know th.t without our natiooal organization bthind w we would be in the same position as the other futemities here. Their officers are in· stalled from one year to another without any training or knowJedJt' of the functioniog of their chapters. From what r can gather they do oot maintain an organized, 6hng system and the material they receive from their n.tionals is not kept or is not of such • n.ture as to warrant careful considetlltion and study. But this I can hardly btlieve is true. Of course. there is no fra· temity with IS fine a functioning Central Office IS DB •. It is this lack of ioternal organization (possibly National. I'm not io a position to say). group support and loyalty to which 1 attribute the greater part of the agitation."

The fraternity has held to its policy of issuing orpniution material .s printed or muneograpbed publications, and during the past two years, it has issued Dew' and revised manuals, instruction sheets. and so forth. as these have been needed. TIle outstanding publications-"The Directory" and ''The History of Pi Beta Phi"-are lasting memorials to Beatrice Stephenson Purdunn and AgnC'S Wright Spring! It seems 6tting that there should bt special mention, too, of the Fiftieth Anniversary Issue of THB Ano .... which reBmed such honor upon the Editor.

The annual mlCCtings of the Grand Council have been held during the interim of conventions as follows: in 1934, immediately .fter conventio n , at the Grand Canyon Hotel, Yellow· stone Park; in 193'. at the Settlement School; in immediately befol'e this convention. at the Edgewater Beach Hotel. Olicago. The 1934 and 1936 meetings have included conferences with province and other national officers All meeti ngs have been or will be reported in Information Numbers of THB ARROW. Perhaps it is worthy of comment that. so far as can be learned, IT B ., is the only fraternity which distl'ibutcs generally for its members to read Ind study all official annual reports and convention minutes. It would seem wise for the fraternity to continue a practice which makes it possible for it to have the best infonned persoonel of any fraternity on matters of organization, functioning, and accomplishments.

1be fraternity finds very gratifyi ng the cootinued financial soundness of its chapters, and expresses its appreciation to the Superviso r of Chapter Accounting and to .11 chaptel' trC8SUftrs and finaoce rnembtrs of Advisory Committees whose careful and efficient work has made this condition possible. In spite of general conditions of financia l stringency durin,R the past two years, California A, New York r, and Ok lahoma B have done extensive ft· modelin,R .nd have added greatly to the conveni· ence, adequacy, and attractiveness of their houses. Florida B plans an addition to its house during this present summer, and both Jowa r and T exas A are considering building in the near future. In diana r. this sprins, moved into its beautiful new house, the first to be owned by the chapter and one so wisely financed that it should never represent a burden to it. Maine A found its bungalow poorly adapted to its use during the cold New England winters and has given it up. Montana A also gave up its house in OI'der th.t it might move into the

nceed.tngJ.y attractive aod dC'Sil'able new house built for it as a part of the federal bousing project 00 the campus. At present. forty·6ve chapters own their own houses, whose total value is approximately $2,000.000.00, and eight chaptecs reot houses for living purposes only one of which is definitely inadequate. Massachusetts A's loog-standing problem of .dequate accommodations for its few membtn who did oot live at home and for its chaptee meetings wu solved io a most gratifying way. this past year, when the national fraternities represented at Boston University made it possible for the Pan hellenic group to purchase the fonner Wellesley College town house. Each chapter has its own chapter room and the use of the spacious living rooms, kitchen and dining room, and a few membtfS of each group may live in the house. 1be resulting increase in fraternity interest in the Sos· ton section has made the purchase of this house seem a wise investment from every standpoint. It is a pleasure to express again foe IT 8 • its appreciation of the splendid. cultured. capable. and attractive women who are serving its chapters as their chaperons . Almost universally today, positions with fraternity chapters are attracting women really capable of filling them.

In accordance with the decision of the last Convention, the fraternity has recently placed on the graves of its bonol'ed, deceased Founders bronze markers whose dignity and beauty have been in keeping with their purpose. n B <It is indebted to Hallie Chapman Collins for the impressive cere· mooy which has been used at the time of the dedi· cation of the markers and to the local membtrs of the fntemity, active and alumnae, who have given such loving attention to the details of the cere· monies.

The fratel'nity's great memorial to its Founders, the Settlement School, has had two splendid years. Under the able direction of Eunice Weaver, conditions at the school have been marked by an efficient and economical administration, by a delightful and happy home life for the staff and the dormitory pupils, by dose and harmonious relations with the community, by increased assumption of responsibility by local organizations like the ParentTeacher Association, the Weavers' Guild, and the Gatlinburg Bwiness Men's Association, and by a and cordial hospitality which has been a JOy to hundreds of visiting Pi Beta Phis. The place whjch the school holds in the hearts of the local is very adequately expressed in the words of Squue Maples. who said, last summer. '"The school has never had a better year" and "So long as I live, I am a friend of the school," and in those of Mrs. Elder who in a letter to the Committee wrote: "Pi Phi came here in the nick of time to save the folks fr om th is modern ruination which has struck Gatlinburll: like a thunderbolt. in the past few years. n B • has a lways been ooe source of strict decency The entertainments have been useful and above repl'oach n • has as a whole been a fit example foe young folks. Once I told our new P asto r that he need not te ll us not to do an y· thins the school did for we would copy them re· gardless. Pi Phi has fanned back to flame the dying art of handicrafts which today is the maio source of mountaineers' income. As much as everybody used to nye about the Park: furnishing jobs for those poor, downtrodden mountaineers, vel'f few

of them have jobs of much pay-the fellows who draw the thee'" arc folks fcom other parts of the country. Our mountain mcn swing the pick and shovel in the ditches while the women weave for n and strive to keep the children in school." Surely the fraternity needs nothing more than this to make it realize that, today. its responsibilities and its opportunities for the finest type of social service arc not less but increasingly great!

It is never an easy thin8 or a slight responsibility to serve as a member of the Settlement School mittee. Income is always uncertain while expenses arc always certain and conditions ovec which the Committee can have no control must be talen into consideration as they affect the school. To be willing to accept the chairmanship of the Committee at a time when many local changes were in progress, when world-wide financial conditions were chaotic, when the school had a big indebtedness which it wo uld have to repay from diminishing income, and when the work must be that of continuing at a high level already established departments and not that of setLing up conspicuous new projects, called for the highest type of unselfishness and devotion to the fraternity_ Frankie Cochran Hill had that devotion and she has had with her on her committee, since the 1934 convention, other Pi Beta Phis with the same h igh vision of what fraternity service should be--Mary Cooper Frost, Mary Wallihan Gibson, Charlotte Cropley Brown, Josephine McCleverty. and Lillian Bed:: Holton. With 10 income from alumnr clubs and chapters cut from $2'.112.03 in 1931 to $13 . "9.07 in 193'. the Committee has carried on the work of the Settlement School without giving up a single department (except for the closing for one year of the dormitories) and with the efficiency and effectiveness of each department at the highest level in the history of the school. The reopened dormitories have meant a deficit for Hoch of the last two yeus but their value to the community is so great that it is unthinkable that it would not be possible in the near future for alumna: clubs and chapters to increase their contributions to the point where the dormitories. which give so much in class-room, industria l, social and moru training, would no longer present so serious a problem for the Committee. Surely to the incoming Chairman, Lillian Beck Holton, and to her Committee whose new members wilt be Marie Bacon Hagee, Missouri B, of St. Louis, ahd Jeffries Grceo Pace, Virginia A, of Philadelphia, the fraternity will pledge a support in keepinlt with its appreciation for the service o f the Committee and its pride in the greatest altruistic project of any frateroity!

In 1934, the Balfour Cup and the Stoolman Vase, highly prized recognition for splendid serv· ice to one's university, national fraternity , and own chapter were won by Illinois Z and Colorado A , respectively. and in 193', by Texas A and Manitoba A. Honorable Mention was given in 1934 to Missouri r and California r and in 19J:) to Ohio B and Michigan A The Amy Burnham Onken Awards for individual quali6catioru of scholarship, personalitr, fratemity service and student activity participation made for the nrst time in 193', were given to Faith Arnold, Vermont A, winner of both province and national awards; Josephine Baker, Ohio B; Elsie Scott Lawrence, North Carolina A; Ann Osburn, Michigan B; Jocelyn Taylor, Missouri B ; Eleano r White Jones.

The Pi Beta Phi Fellowship for graduate study was held in 1934-J:) by Christina Meredith, Pennsylvania r. and in 1935· 36, by Katherine Finney. Arkansas A; for 1936-37. it has been awarded to Frances Farrell, Kansas B.

As National Panhellenic Congress delegate, the Grand President has sincerely endeavored to con· tribute to the promotion of the best interests of all fraternities and to represent acceptably those of Pi Beta Phi.

When, in a recently published article, "What Do Council Officers Do." Margaret K. Banta , Grand President of Kappa Alpha Theta , said: "The Council of Kappa Alpha Theta travels because it is eamestly believed that our national officers can better understand the functioning of the college chapter by living in the houses or dormitories with the girls for a number of days at a time. By the same token, it is valuable to meet with alumnr groups and to work out their plans with them locally rather than by mail, " she expressed a conviction which has long been held by Pi Beta Phi. It is not possible adequatdy to express the inspiration which the Grand President has gained from the privilege which has been hers of knowing on their own campuses or in their own cities eighty-two active chapters and ninety ·seven alumna: clubs. This ex· ceptionai opportunity which has been hers seems to give adequate background for her conviction that there is no other fraternity whose place on college campuses is so high, which is attracting finer pledges or developing stronger active members. or which is including as its alumna: more truly representative college fraternity women. During the past two years, she has had the pleasure of visiting officially District of Columbia A. Maryland A. Virginia A and r. North Carolina A and B, South Carolina A Iowa A, B. r, and Z, Kansas A and B, Nebraska B, Wi sco nsin A and B. Illinois Z and H, Missouri A, B, and r. and the alumna: clubs nearby; of attending the state conferences of Iowa and Florida, the province conferences at Evanston and H insdal e, IJIin ois. the Panhellenic Conclave a t Boston and the Urban Panhellenics Conference at Columbus , Ohio; and of being the special guest of Ohio B , Illinois E, and the De:troit and St. Louis AlumnI! Oubs . To express her appreciation for heart·warmiog hospitality and for evidences of deep fraternity loyalty is impossible. heartfelt though it is.

The Gnnd President wishes to speale. of the happiness which has been hers in working esp«iallv closely with her Assistant, Florence Hunt Webster, and with the Prov ince Preo;idents. whose cooperation has been so strmgthening and whose friendship she wilt always cherish.

Fo r the untold riches of fellowship in Pi Beta

Phi, for the privilege of seC\' ice as 3 member of Grand Council, for the encouragement, cooperation, and kindness which are typical of Pi Beta Phi , and for the JOY of deat friends which are hers because of the Fra ternity, the Grand President can give

only the small return of a loyalty, a love, and a des ire to serve which will never end.

GRAND VICE-PRESIDENT

A S THE thirty-xcond biennial Convention conn vtnes, one hundred seventy-six alumna: dubs attest the sustained interest in their fraternity and the continued strengthening of the alumnz department The women of the ea.r1ier days of the a.lumnr department builded better than they knew , perhaps The foundations upon which they built, 10}'31tr, friendship , and service have stood every test since 1892 when the first alumnae s«retary was appointed and should support an ever expand· ing suptrstructure for many years to come

At National Panhellenic Congress last Novem · htt, alumna: officers of other fraternities en· to learn the secret of our alumna: progress, Our AJumnz Department far outranks that of any other womtn's group in membership and Pi Beta Phi is for an alumna: membership of almost six thousand ,

The Grand Vice-President set as a goal for the Pr ovince Vice -Presidents and their clubs this year, dt6nite aims. Among these was at Itast one new alumnz dub for every province. Though every province did not succeed in locating a group for charttring, the results h3ve been gratifying. Seventetn new dubs have been added since June 19}4 They are distributed as follows: in Alpha Province, London, On1., Canada, Westchester County, New York and Portland, Maine; in Beta Provinct, Charleston, West Vir.'tinia; in Delta Province, Terre Haute. Indiana, Flint, Michigan, Southwestern Michigan and Gary. Indiana; in Epsilon Province, the Little Club of Gatlin· burg, deserves particular mention because of the unusual service it can and does give to the Settlement School, in addition to supporting other fraternity projects; in Zeta Province, DaytonD. Beach, Plorida; in Theta Province, Council Bluffs, Iowa; in Kappa Province, Corpus Christi, Texas, Fort Worth, Texas, San Antonio Texas, Tyler, Texas, and Baton Rouge, Louisiana; in Lambda Province, Olympia, Washington Two clubs, West· ern Massachusetts and Oarksburg, West Virginia, have disbanded since the last Convention. Though these alumnz have ceased to function as active groups, the Fraternity continues to count on their cooperation and support.

This leads to a pertinent problem in the alumn:r department, today-the serving of those alumnz having neither club nor active chapter contact. Though our alumnz membership outranks that of other Panhellenic groups, the fact that we have paid memberships out of almost twenty thousand living alumna! presents a wide 6tld for further endeavor, Shall this be left to the clubs as now, to special officers or shall an approach be made through the chapters? Here is an interestin$. research prOblem and when satisfactorily solved will give us still greater alumna: interest. The field for expansion is not exhausted. E3cb year, through the gatherings to honor our Founders and the resulting friendships, new clubs material-

ize. How fine that continued fraternity activity beyond college years is spreading! The Grand VicePresident would like to Ke greater empba"is upon alumn:r possibilities laid before the active girls while they are in the chapter, in order that the indu ction into the alumnz department become a natural path and that e:lch active anticipale and then sbare the joy of continued work for the fraternity, While the Senior FareweU ceremony, with the accompanying payment of first year alumor dues , is a splendid thing it has not yet accomplished, entirely, the above transition for which it was intended.

More frequent contacts between alumnI! and active girls mean much in an education to that end. Several clubs. Shreveport, Houston , Sabine Di strict, EI Paso, and San Jose, not located in college: towns and missing the active contacts, have adopted nearby chapters. Your vice-president heartily endorses th is idea and wisho more clubs would realize the mutual satisfacti on in this plan. A sponsor from an alumna! club for the local chapter often makes for better understanding, also.

The alumn:r department maintains its official relations with the clubs chieRy through personal appeal and not the more definite requirements possible with active chapters, The cOOperation with province and national officers by the clubs these past two years has been solendid; only two provinct vice·presidents report failure of on e club each to respond to their monthly letters The cry of "too much red tape" fades into the distance as the clubs become educated to the fact that only such requests are sent out as will create greater efficiency in the department or enlarge the alumna: scope, That their cooperation increases is evidenced by the fact that one hundred sixty-six clubs (more than ever before) have sent their officers ' lists on time while the receipt of one bundred fifty. three annual reports from dub presidents insure these dubs proper credit for their efforts. The provinces of Gamma, Epsilon, Eta, Theta, and Iota were one hundred per cent in this.

The universal problems for aU dubs seem to be those of stcUring and holding memberships and of raising money for the Fraternity projects. It has been the desire of the Province Vice-Presidents that these subjects have full discussion at this Convention and that, [rom these discussions every club may receive some help, From a careful study of the questionnaires, it is apparent that those clubs which stress national viewpoint, fr iendliness, a time of meeting convenient for the greatest num· ber of members and programs of wide variety usually show the greatest degree of success in mastering these problems.

In the larger city dubs, the adoption of a group system has proved workable. There is the geographical system which permits the memben to attend aU meetings with the least travel incon· venitnce and there is the departmental method

which allows the members to work in smaller units of Drama, Book Reviews, philanthropy. or Bridge . Still another method is the plan of meeting in two units , one to accommodate those who find it difficuJt to meet at night and the ether to satisfy the business woman or teacher who has only her evmings free. However, for all these separated units, there should be some gatherings foe all Pi Phis together.

An effective Executive Committee which disposes of routine affairs and leaves the meetings for sociability, the consideration of interesting fraternity questions and a good program is an asset. To have each member participating in club activity makes for enlarged interest and attracts the newcomer and th young aJumna. Age lines and chapter distinctions should not be encouraged. Giving a club a chapter name almost automatically limits the membership and gives the appearan ce of excluding other chapter alumnz, though it is unintentional. Alumnae clubs are intended to include alumnae from everywhere and to encourage their fraternity activities.

The major burden of the routine work of the alumnae department falls upon the Province VicePresidents whose unt iring efforts the past two years have brought the present fine results. Each Province Vice-President set for herself the goal of club and chapter of her province contributing to the Settlement School, the Loan Fund and the Endowment and to those clubs and chapters which have succeeded, all praise is due Last year, three provinces, Delta, Epsilon , and Lambda held perfect records in these donatio ns for both clubs and chapters; Theta province clubs were one hundred per cent contributors. This year, Delta, Epsilon, Theta, Iota, Lambda, and Mu Provi nce clubs and chapters have donated to these three projects one hundred per cent.

The national Fraternity is particularly grateful for the continued support of the Settlement School these past two years when most incomes have continued at the same depression·averages. Since 19 10, when Emma Harper Turner and the Washingto n, D C., alumnz first /resented. the idea of a na tional project to hal the interest of the alumnz, our philanthropy has hem of paramoun t interest to alumnae clubs. Active chapters take a similar pride in the help Pi Beta Phi offers to the mountaineers of Tennessee _ A quotation from a recent chapter letter is of interest as an aample o f the feeling among many active chapters. After commenting on her pleasure in serving her as its president , this officer continues, "We all feel that we have accomplished a great deal in o ur paramount des ire--by being able t o substantially to the Settlement School." As long as there continues to be r oom for expansi on in Tennessee, our work is not concluded and every club and chapter should fjnd some Ways and Means to contribute to the school's support_ Something should be fr om chapter and dub, every year, though the amounts necessarily would vary according to the dub or chapaffluence that year. Everyone rejoices at out· standing donations such as the $1100 from the Los Angeles dub, the $900 fr om the Clevdand club or the $460 from the Philadelphia dub, which represent herculean effort but no one is less appreo f the amounts rece ived fr om the smaller clubs or chap te rs whose per ca pita contribution

represen ts fully as much in energy and sacrifice_ A shining of this is the donation of the Chicago North Alumna: Club of $3::;0, with a of but twenty-five members . All d onations, large or small, help material ly.

With th e widened distribution of the produ cts of the T ennessee m ountaineers through the Arrowcra ft Shop, interest in the Settlement School has been furthered. Tw elve th o usand dollars worth of business from the alumnz clubs , not to mention that of the chapters, many individuals and gift shops, has been done this year An open club meeting or tea with a sale of these handsome articles is strongly recommended as a fine way to spread the knowledge of the mountaineer work_

The very generous response of many clubs to the a ppeal of the Magazine Agency for subscriptions has also meant more income for the school. Every club should have its agent and avail itself of this very effective manner of helping the Settlement School. The two other projects to which all clubs are asked to contr ibute are the Loan Fund and the Endowment. Our active girls use the donations to the Loa n Fund t o complete their educations . Alumnae clubs have sent $804 20 to this fund during the past year. The income from the Endowment Fund will mean added fraternity ment in many l ines. Were every alumna to make even a small contribution, this Fund, completed. wo uld be of greater service toward internal strengthening o f the Fraternity.

This report may Sttm to dweU too strongly upon the monetary side of alumna: functioning but there has been constant of spiritual progress as well. Within the past two years alumnae have enjoyeJ Day celebrations everywhere Particularly might be menti oned the state and province gatherings which help to weld alumnz and active interests and which further alumna: respo nse. Alpha Province alumna: enjoyed s uch gatherings this year; at the opening of the ne w Pa nhellenic house at Boston many New England Pi Phis joined. in honoring Miss Onken on her visit to the Panhellenic conference a t that time ; in April, the Hartford alumDlile gathered sixty New England Pi Phis t ogether for the celebration o f Founders' Day and in Toronto, other a lumnr o f Alpha province and the Cleveland dub met for a two day conference which included F ounden' D ay with Ontario Alpha and Beta chapters at Hamilto n. Ont.; another su ch gathering will be held in the state of Maine this summer. Last yea r, the actives and alumna: of Florida gained much good from th e ir state conference at Orlando; a n other was planned for thi s spring but had to be given up, at the last minute. Both years the state of Indiana has assembled its actives and alumnz for Round T able di scussio n and honor to the F ounders , in Indianapolis . The Michigan alwnnz and actives, similarly met in Detroit and Ann Arbor for get-to-gethers. In 193' , an Eta Province conference was held in Evanston and this year. many aJumnz of the province met in Hinsdale Ill inois as guests of the Ch icago West Suburban club. In June of last year Kappa provin ce had a very successful two day conference in Shreveport , Louisiana. Th is year Texas Phis met in Austin to celebrate Founders' Day Both northern and southern California h ad large Founders' Day luncheo ns combin ing several dubs and active chapters. The fact that the national fraternity is willing to

send • national officer to these conferences, when is a point worthy of notice.

Oubs have enjoyed the personal contacts with the nati onal organ iuti on brought to them through the vi,its of the P rovince Vice-Presidents , in addition to their monthly 1bese vi,its have widened the knowledge of fraternity activity, nationally and have brought an awakening of their individual responsibility to the fraternity The Province Vice-Pres ident fereh tbese vi,its invaluable to her for she learns dubs' problems at first hand and the ensuing correspondence can be more beneficial , in consequence.

Since the 1934 Convention, the following changes in the personnel of the aJumnr department have been n«essary, through illness or change in residence. In Gamma Province. Sallie Belle Sydnor of Richmond. Virginia, Emma Sippel of Baltimore, Maryland ; in Zeta Province, Winifred Smith Paige of Atlanta, Georgia. accepted the vicepresidency upon resignation of Hilda Henry of Atlanta; in Eta Province, Ruth Sutton resigned in the summer following Convention to be succeeded by Dorothy Dengel of Milwaukee, Wisconsin; upon Mrs Dengtl 's resignation because of illness this year, Hazel Murdock Murkland accepted the office. Sue Winton Fletcher of Seattle, Washington, succeeded to the responsibility of lambda Province upon the resignation of Juanita O'Day of Pullman , Washington. T o all of these, as well as to those Province Vice-Presidents who have served the full two years, the Grand Vice·President expresses her own and the Fraternity"s gratitude for their fine work for the alumna: department. It is certain each will say she has been repaid by the fi n e loyalty and support of the clubs within her province.

Every year national and province officers ask for suggested ways for improving the functioning of the Fraternity. This year Grand Council authorized the appointment of a special national committee to receive suggestions offered for the improvement of the alumnae department. The committee will present its report and its recommendations to this Convention . Whether the number of suggestions presented will justify the continuance of this policy is a matter for Convention to decide. That there are more alumnI! delegates (eightynine) present at this Convention than at any previow one assures a full discussion of alumnI! responsibilities.

Visits to dubs by national officers. in addition to the prescribed visits of the Province VicePresidents, were authorized at the last Convention. In a few instances clubs felt financially unab le to entertain an additional officer but whenever possible the Fraternity sent a member of the Grand Councilor her assistant to club meetings_ Your Grand Vice-President has had the pleasure of many of these contacts and from them has received far more than she gave in inspiration and encourage-

Dment. E\'erywhere she found the alumn.r cooperative and interested in nati ona l fraternity affairs. It has been the privilege of the Grand VicePresident to visit. officially, the following chapters in the interim of Conventions: Albem Alph.a , Montana Alph.a, Idah o Alpha , Washington Alpha and Oregon Alpha and Beta, Ontario Beta. Oklahoma Alpha and Beta, Massachusetts Alpha, Maine Alpha, Manitoba Alpha, North Dakota Alpha , Minnesota Alpha , Michigan Alpha and Beta. South Dakota Alpha Several others were visited unofficially. None of thesse chapters bas failed to sense her obligations to the Fraternity nor to respond to the suggestions offered. The fine characters and the types which make up the active chapters of our Fraternity made a definite impression.

Attendance at National Panhellenic Congress in November, 19n brought a new and delightful It was gratifying to meet and confer with o ther fraternity officers. Your Grand Vice· President left the Congress with increased pride in this Fraternity. its methods of functioning and its capable reprcsenta tive in the Congress. Amy B. Onken . This office has had the complete and satisfactory aid of the Assistant , Marianne Wild. at all times. Due to her many letters concerning Founders" Day celebrations, fo unda tions were laid which will result in new clubs in the future In addition, Mrs Wild has been ready, always, to render assistancc as asked.

Mrs . Hill and Miss McCleverty of the Settlement School Committee, Mrs. Weaver and Mrs. Snow at the Settlement School. Mrs Purdunn of Central Office , Mrs. Stephenson of the Magazine Agency, Phelan and her committee, all have contributed to the greater eff«tiveness of this office. To them and to Laura Payne, California Delta who, as her fraternity contribution. has handled all mimeographing for this office for two years, the Grand Vice-President expresses her gratitude. Most of all to those many alumna:, whose untiring energy, loyalty, and constructive criticisms have meant the success of the national alumna: department, deep appreciation is here expressed. On some basis of continued and active service, your Grand Vice ·President would recommend some award of merit or recognition for them

The experience of serving on Grand Council as your alumna officer has been a nre privilege. At all times, the Grand President has given of her understanding while the helrful cooperation of each member of the Counci has been enjoyed bevond measure. As the mantle of respo nsibility falls to her successor. the Grand Vice-President hopes for her, the same degree of happi ness or added pleasurers in fraternity associations and res ponsibilities.

ARROW EDITOR

THE TWO years just past have been very interesting ontS in .A.u.ow history. The first was distinguished by the publication of the Directory of the fraternity as a regular issue of the magazine . The success of this number we owe entirely to the efficiency and splendid work of the Director of the Central Office and her assistants.

In the spring of that year THE ARRow was fifty years old. At the 1934 Convention the aJum.n.z of the Fraternity had voted an appropcjation to make it a memorable number, and this was spent in an enlargement of the issue, and the publication of a supplement in the form of a facsimile of the 6rst number of THE ARROW It was received with such enthusiasm and so genuine an interest in the historical aspect of the Fraternity was shown that we were encouraged to ISo further into the complete history of the Fraterruty.

Accordingly, a revision of the History, on which the Histocian had bttn working since the last Convention, was issued as the February nwnber of THE Ano.. and placed in the hands of aU .Anow subscribers. It bas bec:n with the delight that it deserves. The Editor can say this since it was written entirely by Agnes Wright Spring, as yo u know who have read it. It is a real history, arranged in chronological order for the story of lhe formative years of the Fratecnity, and proceeding from cause to effect, from proof to fact.

On account of the fact that we have bad only two open issues in each of the last two years it has been difficult to include in THE ARRow all the material desired, and we have been far from doing so. Some solution of the space problem must be found. The fraternity wants chapter letters, alumnae letters and personals, but either their space must be cut down or the number of pages mwt be increased. The latter involves, of course, increased expense--the former will not meet the desires of the Fraternity. The Editor feels that the magazine should include each time at least one article on a topic of serious fraternity interest besides general news about our alumnae members and about the active girls, and our regular departments. and with ninety·six pages as our standard size and sixty6ve of them given over to letters and personals, this is not possible.

This year a marked change for the sake of economy was made in the form of the lnformatioo AJlRow . A cheaper paper was used, a less expensive cover, and much material was compressed into six point type. As a result it cost about one half as much as the corresponding issue of the previous year. That was, of course, the unusually large one of the year of Convention, but even allowing for that, the saving was a considerable item. The Edi· tor strongly recommends that the same form be used this year. It seems wise that since a saving must be effected, it be largely made up in the issue which goes only to our own family, as it were. Further economies, if they are necessary, would have to come in cutting size and quality of the open issues.

The Editor cannot commend too highly the excellent service she has received [rom the Banta Company. Their has beftl fine and always helpful, espectaJly during this past spcing when the delay in the appearance of the History threw two issues of tbe magazine into their hands at once We have been noti6ed that there will be a slight increase in the price of paper for next year,

which they warned us last year would probably come We are no w using the least expensive type of paper whi ch will take engrav!:tsat all well.

The Editor owes grateful th to the Fraternity for the privilege of attend ing N .P .C. and the Editors ' Conference . The discussions at the latter s two meetings were most interesting and helpful in many ways It was constantly brought home that our much larger circulation of over 22,000 makes our problem entirely different from that of any of the olhe(, magazines of our owo class. Oue problem is one of size, thein gives more chance to concentrate on quality.

The Editor has during the past two years visited nine ch3pters officially, and seven others UDofficiaJly and briefly, Colorado A, Colorado B, Wyoming A, Utah A, Nevada A, West Virginia A. Pennsylvania B, Pennsylvania r, California A, California B. Distcict of Columbia A, Louisiana A. Texas A, California r, California .6., Arizona A, and has made visits to all alumnI! clubs aJong her routes. This seems a very valuable and important part of her work, and has made possible a very clo5e connection between THE ARltow and the Fraternity at large

The work of giving a magazine to the Fraternity much cooperation from officers and committee chairmen, much work with Crnual Office The Editor wishes to thank all who have so generously helped her, Grand Council and Central Office, especially.

The Ediroc would like to put THE ARRow in the hands of every single member of the Fraternity, and to that end, recommends the continuance of the $7.'0 rate foc life subscription, with a renewed effort next year to ceach all non·subscribers-perhaps a circular letter enclosing a subscription blank, or a return postcard might again be used.

During the last few yean several schemes for attracting advertising to the Fraternity magazines have been tried and have failed. recently a new one has been put before us, and this one appean to have a better chance of success than the others ever had. The men who are working on it include some very well known men in the fraternity world, as well as in the field of advertising.

News items have come in in great numbers this last year, and are adding much to the general interest of the magazine. The Editor has tried to acknowledge every one of them-if she has failed it has not been for lack of appreciation. She is glad aJways to have suggestions and criticisms. THE ARROW reflects the life of the Fcaternity truly only in /roportion as every member is interested in it an wants to heJp-even if that help is only shown by reading the magazine. The Editor's favorite nightmare is of a stack of unopened ARROWS in a chapter house somewhere--truly a dreadful thought to one who knows the care and hard work that the production of the magazine means.

The present ARROW staff is a splendid group of women , and the various departments come in to the Editor on time and in sr,lendid requiring little final editin? The raternity owes much to the fine service 0 the staff and the contributocs.

It is a privilege to steve Pi Beta Phi in any capacity, but especiaHy so in THE Alutow wock. The Editor is grateful to the Fraternity for the opportunity that has come to her.

TAYLOR ALFORD

ASSISTANT TO THE GRAND PRESIDENT

OUR. Grand Presiden t once said that there is no greater inspiration than that which comes from personal contacts with women like OUf foooden . To this the Assistant to the Grand Presi. dent would like to add "a nd the inspiration from the personal contacts with active girls," Although reports and figu.res these last two years show that the Fraternity has in every aspect of its lile, these contacts with active chapters have shown me the real reasons for OUf pride.

The routine duties of this office have been performed these last two years. For the first year these included the supervision of pledge supervisors and Alumo.e Advisory Committees through letters sm.t out at the beginning of each semester and others that were necessa.ry with the resulting correspond· ence The supervision of rush captains was added this last year. This addition has resulted in a bet· ter understanding of each chapter's pledge situa· tion, gaint<! from the knowledge of each one's rushing problems. Further knowledge of chapter conditions was obtained from the chapter presidents cooperating in answer to a questionnaire each spring and in sending copies of their chapter letters to the parents of pledges. These questionnai res gave corrected figures for the number of pledges for the dosing college year.

Chapter officers have answered promptly and given splendid cooperation on the whole Each time an answer was necessary three or four replies were missing. It is noticeable that the same few chap· ters failed to reply each time. This situation is true also of Advisory Committee correspondence. Advisory Committee members are usually very busy women who give most generously of their time. Their unfai ling cooperation is greatly appreciated but it is also most necessary for the development of strong chapters

During two years the Assistant to the Grand President has had more pleasure than she can adequately express in her contacts with chap· ters, dubs, and individual Pi Phis when making chapter visits. And she is most grateful for their

Acordial and gracious hospitality. In the interim of convention she has visited officially Ontario A, New York A, New York r, New York .1., Vermont A, Vermont B, Nova Scotia A, Maine A, Massachusetts A, JlJinois E, Ohio A, Ohio B, Ohio 6, Kentucky A, Tennessee A, Arkansas A, Louisiana A, Wisconsin A, and Wisconsin B. She was delightfully entertained by the alumnr clubs of T oronto, Buffalo, Syracuse, I thaca, Boston, Hartford, Westchester, New York City, Long bland, Chattanooga, and LittJe Rock She had the pleasure of attending the Founders' Day for Michigan at the invitation of the Detroit Alumn:e Club, and part of the Eta Province Conference as the guest of Illinois E Wisconsin B invited her for its formal rushing day and in December of 193 4 she had the added inspiration of acting as representative for the fratemity at the Greek Conference at Delaware, Ohio, as the guest of Ohio 6.

Again this year, as last, the survey of pledging and initiation statistics shows continued growth in numbers The number of initiates has been over twelve hundred each of these past two years. Until this time 1179 had been the maximum.

The total pledges for this year was 1842; last year it was 18 '2.

The total initiation for thi s year was 1237 ; last year it was 1281.

66% of all pledges were initiated; last year it was 62%_

'9% of this year's pledges were initiated; last year it was 60%

There were 1472 new pledges this year with 860 initiated and 1449 last yea r with 861 initiates.

For the very real joy that close association with the Grand President has brought , for the friendship and cooperation of those with whom she has worked, and for the pleasure of serving Pi Beta Phi , the Assistant to the Grand President is most grateful

ASS ISTANT T O TH E GR AND VICE-PRESIDENT

T THE beginning of the year, your Assistant to the Grand Vi ce- President and the Province Vice-Presidents set for themselves the goal of a new club for every province While this goal was not reached, the aver,ge number of dubs chartered for each of the past fou r years has been maintained. Seven new clubs have been chartered since June 19n-two in Alpha Prov ince, two in Delta Province, one in Epsil on Province, one in Zeta Province, and one in Kappa Province The fact that some provinces do not have a new dub is in no way a reflection on the Province Vice-Presidents concerned, for the field for club extension is far greater in some provinces than in others.

Throughout the year aU possible contacts were made, and letters were written in the spring to Pi Phis in eighty-five different localities urging the celebration of Founders' nay and the formation of a dub I,n the campaign for new clubs the sug· gestions and advice of Mrs Smith have been invaluable and the formation of many of the clubs is due directly to her efforts .

Letters of welcome have been written to all new clubs and an effort to work closely with them and the clubs chartered last year has been made.

This office worked with Central Office in attempting to complete and correct the Alumnz D irectory in THB Auow.

Early in the year a statement of the aims and policies of Pi Beta Phi was prepared and sent to all Mothers' Clubs tosether with a letter expressing our ap'{'reciation of their interest in the various chapters 0 the fraternity.

Due t o illness in Mrs. Sippel's family and later her resignation , this office handled the work of the Gamma Province Vice·President from October th ro ugh February ; and for the same reason also handled the work: of the Eta Province V icePresident from December through February.

Mrs Smith's regular letter to the Province VicePresidents was written for her in March wh ile she was making fraternity visits

The work of the Arm y and Navy Auxiliary is under the general supervision of this office. Mrs .

Lingo. the cha.irman of tbe AuiIiary has bem compiling a list of fraternity members who are mmlMrs of service familIes

It was the privilege of your Assistant to the Grand Vice·President to make some dub visits as Mn. Smith's She wishes a$alO to thank those clubs for their gracious hospitality and the inspiration thus gained.

Several clubs asked for help in planning their programs for the year, others asked for sugges· tioos for Founders ' Day programs This officer is very glad to be of aU possible help to clubs.

She also hopes that sbe has of some IS-

sistancc to the Grand Vice-President with whom it ha:s been her great pleasure to work. and to whom she wishes to bet appreciation for her consideration and helpful SU&lestiODS at all times. This report would not be complete without mention of the cooperation of the Province Presidents, who bave faithfully ful6Jlcd aU reque-SUi; or without an expression of drepest gratitude to all of the members of Grand Council for their iOspiration and help.

ASSISTANT TO THE GRAND TREASURER

A GAIN 1 thank you for the trust imposed upon L"\.. me as an appointed officer. Since the Constitution was amended at the Asbury Parle Convention in 1931, I have acted in this capacity with the exception of one year, namely 1934-3:5. The duties of the officer are maJOly around the receiving of jewelry orders; checking money sent with orders; and forwarding orders on to L. G. Balfour Compan" Attleboro, Massachusetts, to be: filled.

TMy esteem (or Grand Council hu grown more this year than ever before.

After working with Mrs. Stoolman, I realize tha.t she has given unstintedly of her time, thou.Rht, and patience to build the finances o( Pi Beta Phi to their enviable place today.

NATIONAL HISTORIAN

HB History Numbtr of THE AlUlow was published in February, 1936, after two years of research and writing. I t is hoped that it will serve as a basic groundwork upon which to build a more complete and much larger history in (uture years.

Due to the lack of time and space much data was necessarily omitted from the Hi story which will appear in future issues of THB AlUlow or elsewhere, such as the list of :500 prominent Pi Phis, the list of Phi Beta Kappas, and honor graduates, and the individual chapter histories.

After discovering that the chapters did not for the most part, have as much data assembled as I had presumed, it was felt wise to postpone the publ icatio n of the individual chapter histories until they could be made accurate, uniform, and complete.

I fed that the writing of the chapter histories should be done by the alumnr, with one alumna responsible for each chapter history. This recommendation is made because I feel that the chapter historian has enough to do to record the events of the current year and does not have the necessary time to do research work relative to past history.

Much valuable data and many splendid chapter histories have already been submitted to the Historian, but a number are still entirely lacking.

During the past year the Historian has obtained twenty.five copies of charters out of the twentyeight lacking from the files. The remaining three are expected soon.

It" was necessary to solicit some 200 photographs for use in The H istory . These will be returned to the owners at the earliest possible time.

Chapters and individuals are urR;ed to present to the National Archives early record books, letters, photographs. etc., for permanent preservation in the national fireproof cases.

Many interesting things happened in the course of the compibtioo and the writiog of the history

outstandinlt among which was a trip made by the late Nell Custer Swisher, Grand President in Mrs. Swisher cheerfully made a trip through snowdrifts some six fed. deep along the roads from I owa Gty to West Liberty, in 20 below uro weather, in order to get an early photograph of herself with which to complete the collection of Grand President"s photographs being used in the History.

Loyal Pi Beta Phis, old and young, in every state, in Canada, and even in Europe gave devoted cooperation and assistance which I greatly appreciate. I regret that space does not permit me to acknowledge the assistance received from each individual in this work.

Following is a list of accessions from July, 193:5, to July. 1936 :

Photo of Convention 1888 and 1923, Georgina Rowland.

Butler chapter house and writeup, Mrs E. B. Hall.

I wish to take this opportunity to call to the attention of the Fratermty, the photography work done for the History num ber by Me Grant Eddy of the Multigraph of the Colorado Agricultural College, whose special equipment, experience. and extremely reasonable prices made the photographs possible.

] also wish to comment upon the ideal cooperation of the George Banta Publi shing Company and especiaUy of their represmtative Me. H . ). Bachmann, who was assigned especially to the work of publishing the Hi story Number of THE AJUtow. Mr. Bachmann and the Banta Publishing Company gave us much in interest, cooperation, time, and

Tfine mechnical performance that was not stipulated in the contract.

Again I wish to acknowledge the invaluable assistance given me by the Grand President and THE ARROW Editor who worked untiringly through the months to assist in bringing the History to printed form.

I beg your indulgence for the omissions and mistakes which J know too well exist I rejoice in the splendid foresight of the Grand Coun cil through which the History was made a possibility. It has been a rare privilege to do this most fascinating piece of work [or Pi Beta Phi

DIRECTOR OF CENTRAL OFFICE

HE QUESTJON what do you do in the Central Office" is one that is heard not only in non-fraternity circles, but also in Pi Beta Phi gatherings . The routine work of the Central Office is o f course the most important part of the work of this office, and so i n explaining the functi ons of the Central Office it is always necessary to give the routine proje(ts o[ the office. Below is a list of the most important routine projects that were handled in the Central Office this year.

1. Sending out supplies to chapters and alumna: clubs throughout the year.

2. Changing addresses on the file cards and plates, and kttping the mailing list up-to-date.

3. Collecting money from chapters and alumna: clubs [or supplies purchased.

4. Compiling the Standardization and Survey and othe r reports

Running the mailing list [or THE ARROW.

6. Mimeographing material [or chapters, clubs, and officers.

7. Filling printing orders.

8. Writing up THE AllJ.ow personals

9. HandJin$ new initiation work, which consists of sendmg out Directories and embossed initiation certificates to the new initiates, and of making cards for them in the files

10. Endeavoring to find the ··Iost" members.

11. Entering data contained on such blanks as inactive, active, officer, and change of address blanks.

12. Distributi o n of blanks to the proper officers, Other special projects handled in the Central Office this year were alii follows:

Five chapter officer manuals were completely reo vised in the summer of and were backed with bright colored covers, and sent out to the chapters in the fall.

Seven hundred copies of the Constitution, including the amendments , were mimeographed at the Central Office and distributed to all national officers, alumnae clubs, alumnae advisory committees, and active chapters. Th is was the largest mimto,graphing project the Central Office had e-vcr handled.

Every other year the Pi Beta Phi Central Office sends ou t postal cards to the Fraternity's entire membership. These cards request that the members fill out the blanlcs on the cud, asking for COrrtel addresses, correct names, and other information that would be of interest to the fraternity AU chaptrrs were billed for these cards in Decrmber and

.20 was collected [rom the chapters to pay for the cost of this project. Chapters located in the United States are charged thrtt cents per alumna , and chapters in Canada are charged four cents per alumna. The cards were sent out in January, and the return cards began coming back immediately. The handling of these cards will be completed this summer. After the files o f the Central Office are revised with the data contained o n the return postal cards, they are sent to the active chapters for correction of their files.

The other large mailing handled by the Central Office this year was the Endowment Drive letter which was sent out to the entire mrmbership . This work was begun on March 20 and completed March 26. The letters were [aided, sealed and then addressed on the Address ograph machine. The cost of this mailing was as follows:

Second class permit $ 10.00 P os tage (including foreign postage) ,.

Printing ,.

TOTAL $31 2.34

From Augwt I, 1935 , through M ay 31, 1936, the Central Office has collected $I,6H.79 [rom chapters, individuals, and alumnae dubs in payment of publications, stationery, supplies, and ARROW subscriptions.

From August I, through May 3 1, 1936 , the operating expenses of the Central Office were as follows :

Salaries (two employe-es and D irector of the Central Office) $2 ,741.n R e nt 2

Express and Postage. .

773 .34

Miscellaneous expense and supplies, including ribbon and robe purchases Telegrams and Telephone bills Bank charge 1,010.76 '2 21 .23

TOTAL $4,827 79

The Fraternity has 1, 237 new initiates f o r the year. Last year 1,281 members were initiated, but that number included the initiatio n of the aJumn:r of the tw o new chapters.

Subscribers to THE Auow will notice thlt the return postage guarantee does not appear. on TJ:lE ARRow wrapper except on the Informabon, HIStory, and Directory issues of THE Auow. It is therefore, more necessary than e-ver that you notaEy

the Office when your name o r address is

The ' lost m the files of the Centr:a1 Office has been reduced due undoubtedly to the fact that the postal cards' were stnt out, asking for new addresses. However, the number of lost, 1,501, is far too lar$'"

The Director is grateful to the members of Grand Council, to the national officers , to the active chapters, and to the dubs for the lioe she has had from them this year, 1935·

BEATRICE STEPHENSON PURDUNN

ARMY AND NAVY AUXILIARY

ANY inquiries have come to me from friends as t o the object and reason for organizing within Pi Beta Phi. It seems that the need (or further direct contact with members associated with the military services challenged the attention of Grand Council with the resultant creation of the Auxiliary

The project is new and because of the constant changes in the Army and Navy the members have not all learned o( the survey in every active chapter directed by Mrs C. M . Purdunn through Centtal Office to learn the number connected with the military services

Up to and including August 7. twenty-6ve chap-

ters had replied, since then nine more have responded and supplied the desired information. No doubt all chapters will respond eventually either with names and addresses or with the statement no members are so connected.

The Auxiliary was begun as an alumna: movement but o( course any Pi Beta Phi, active or alumna, qualified to enroll will be welcomed and listed

The survey resulted in tweoty-eight names of active girls of Army and Navy families. The chairman has received eight names by letter or otherwise making a total of thirty-six names to date-May 31, 1936

The Arm] and Nail] /ollr"al and Regisler gra-

ciously offered to print without expense in their resp«tive magazines along about January 20. 1936, that Pi Beta Phi , oldest woman's (olleltt fratern ity. has establishN an Army-Navy Auxiliary and desires all members connected with the military services to forward their names and addresses to the chairman.

It was thought more advantageous after consideration to postpone acceptance of this friendly gesture unti'luly 1 o r thereabouts when the greater percentage 0 Army transfers arc authorized by the Government. This does not usually apply t o the Navy since ship movements are arranged differently from troops.

The list of names already received will also be augmented during the summer since the chairman will, upon recommendation of the Assistant to the Grand Vi ce·President, Mrs Wild, check the last issue of Pi Beta Phi Directory with recent issues of Army and Navy orders in hopes of securing addi. tional names for the Au.riliary Directory.

Elizabeth McKelvey Houck (Mrs. Jonathan Houde, District of Columbia A). U. S. M ilitary Academy , West Point, New York, has consented to checlc all names of Pi Beta Phis reporting for duty at West Point. It is hoped to secure a successor to Irene Murray , District of Columbia A (Mrs. Charles t Murray), U. S. Naval Academy, An·

Th is is only the beginning of the Auxil iary and to become an integral part of Pi Beta Phi, each member must realize the privilege of dose contad with the Fraternity, subscribe to the Settlement School, the Endowment Fund, attend alumnz dub meetings, read THE AIUlow, and pay dues to the alumnz club of her present affiliation or if n ot, then mail direct to the Army or Navy sub-chairman. nol 10 Ihl All Auxiliary dues are to be forwa rded by the sub-chairman to Mrs. Robert S. Wild, Assistant to the Grand Vice-President, Route 16, Box 14, Indianapolis, lndiana.

The object of the Auxiliary is to bring closer contact with the Fraternity, and if in process of development , a new and concrete object is desired in addition, I suggest members send in suggestions to the chairman or to Mrs . Wild.

The time has hem spent mostly gathering and attempting to gather names of members, but with a begtnning I ful sure the work will progress and become productive of added strength through cooperation with fraternity activities and with the goal of choosing one more worthy project in the name of Pi Beta Phi.

Province Presidents' Reports

ALPHA PROVINCE EAST PRESIDENT

A PTER an interim of seven years it Wali a pleaJurc L". to return to province work. I looked forward to seeing four of myoid chapters again. and to rnttting the one in Nov. Scotia which this year celebnted its fint birthday. While visiting all these chapters in the eaIly fall I was happy to renew so many former friencbhips with Pi Phis all over the province.

I SOOn realized that io the last few years the organization of chapters had well advanced. so that my reaction was not to spend too much time in emphasizing the duties of the various officers and chairmen. There did, however, seem a real n«ci to encourage chapters to enjoy their fraternity. In order to do this it was necessary to stress the importance of planning ahead for their meetings-to have programs. social affairs. and happy times.

To this program planning, which included speakers, book reviews, and musical evenings, can be attributed much of the success of the meetings this year. In each of the five chapters there has been a steady growth in fraternity development and interest. One chapter, Vermont B, hal definitely contributed to a finer Panhellenic spirit on its ampus. It took several attempts before the chapter but the girls persevered and have been greatly praised by the dean of women.

Eleanor Martin of Massachusetts A has won the Amy B. Onken Award for our province. She has a very thoughtful and inspiring leader to her chapter as well as outstanding in academic and college hODors.

All chapters show an increased average in scholarship over last year and Maine A again heads the list in this respect on her campus. Several Pi Phis signal honors. Arlene Merrill, Maine A, won the scholarship [or graduate work at Mer· rill Palmer. Arlene is the highest ranking student on the Orono campus. Elisabeth Ballern, Nova Scotia A, received the Malcolm Honor Award, the highest honor that can be conferred on a student at Dalhousie. Two of the four girls winning dis· tinction in their final examinations at Dalhousie

were Pi Phis. Rosemary Cahill, Vermont B, won the French FelJowship for study in France nat year.

AJ for college honors, we have five new Phi Beta Kappas in the province, thr« of whom belong to Maine A. These three girls are also Phi Kappa Phis. Other honorary societies are also generously represented in the chapten. Four Pi Phis belong to Mortar Board. It is surprising how many of the girls are on debating teams or editors of their college papers!

The chapter room situation is the same in all cases as last year with the exception of Massachu· setts A Last fall, along with six other national fraternities, the Pi Phis moved into a most attractive new Pan hellenic House. It is very centrally loca.tt'd and admirably suits the needs of fraternity women. Quite a fine Panhellenic spirit is growins up there.

Most of the chapters had the benefit of visits from national officers during the year Mass ach u· setts A. was also fortunate in that the New England Panhellenic Conference was held in Boston in the fall. Seven actives from Burlington motored down to the Pi Phi celebrations that were connected with it. Vermont A and Vermont B united in observing Founders' Day. Such privileges of being together are of the utmost importance in fostering a national point of view.

Most of the chapters sent me weekly letters. From these, a composite letter was made by me and sent to Miss Onken and the chapters every month, so that before long we had a very lively province spirit.

It has been a joy to work with the advisory committees. I found them as invaluable as everboth to the chapters and to me--:lnd wish to take this opportunity of thanking them for their splen. did cooperation.

It has been an interesting year for me in the Fraternity. My contacts with the actives, the alum · nle, and, above all, the national officers have been an experience of i:lsling va lu e.

VIDA H. PUNB

ALPHA PROVINCE WEST PRESIDENT

I T IS gratifying to be able to report considerable progress among the chapters of Alpha Province Wcst during tht- past year, as well as a greater feeling of unity and interest in each other. My trips to the five chapters were made before Christmas. with the exception of mv visit to New York A which was made in M arch. Two trips were made to New York 4, as well as New York r

On the whole these chapter visits were dt-lightful and, I feel sure, profitable. In every insta n ce the contacts with the variou.s deans of women were very interesting and helpful. Some of these deans had praise for Pi Phis, individually and collectively. I especially enjoyed my contacts with the alumnae, too, and I am convinced that these loyal Pi Phis have much to do with the strength of our various chapters.

At the beginni ng of the year I asked each chap· ter to write me each week, the president to write one very informative letter by the fifteenth of the month, the olhers to be written by girls appointed by the president. It has pleased me to see how well the chapters have kept to this schedule. I wrote only the absolutely required form letters. the rest of my JeUers being entirely individual for each chapter or chapter officer. The regular letters have been supplemented by a number of round·robins, compiled from the different chapter letters. This direct approach has been much more effective rh",n mere form letters could be. The round· robins deli,ll;hted my chapters and have resulted in groups adopting good ideas from other groups. They have also created a much greater interest in other chaJ)* ten and the Fraternity at large.

The two Ontario chapters. A and n, have worked closely during the past year and have exchanged girls for various parties. The two chapters celebrated Founders' Day together with the alumor at Hamilt on, Onlario. and found it a great inspiration. Twenty girls from New York A came to Syracuse Founders' Day to celebrate with the New York A chapter and the alummr. I hope that these joint celebrations will become more and more common in this province. They not only help the chapters to become closer but also tend to bring about a closer feeling brtween alumnr and actives.

All five chapters contributed to the Settlement School Fund, the Lo:!.n Fund, and the Endowment Fund this yeac.

The Ontario A chapter continues to hold a high position on the University of T oro nt o campus o( offices held by of this chapter are: o( First and 5e<ond Year, musical director of Association, publicity director of Student Christian treasurer o f the S C.M., treasurer o f the First Year The vice.president of the Players' Guild Committee of the University, a very orga nizati o n, is a Pi Phi One of our girls is a member of the championship debating team and won the public speaking contest. An other girl is treasurer of Pan hellenic. Of (our freshmen on the First Year three are Pi Phis. Tw o of these three have bttn reelec ted for next year. In March five members of the chapter were elected t o office, three on year executives and two on the Women ' s Undergraduate Executive.

This Ontario A has quite a few improvements in chapter apartment in the way of new drapes, new studio couch. rug, and fresh coats of paint for some of the furn iture.

Ontario B continues to lead the campus at the Univerlity of Western Ontario. The scholarship of the chapter is splendid and our girls hold many very prominent offices. A Pi Phi holds the most important women's office in the university, that of Sub-Prefect. In cidentally. Pi Phis have held this office (o r the pa st three years. Two of our girls are members of the Students' Administrative Assembly, two are members o f honor society of university. Other offices held by members of the chapter are thost of senior vice-president, secretary of the University Student Commission, secretary of the senior year, badminton representative to the Women's Athletic Directorate, presi· dent of the Women's Athletic Committee, of the Commerce Club. and tenni s representative to the W omen's Athletic Council.

Ontario B gave a faculty tea this year, the first group on campus to do this. They were aJso the first group to give an tea New York A has made very Rreat progress during the past year. The chapter holds sixth in scholarship in the list of twenty-two sororities on the campus, Two members of this chapter elected to Eta Pi Upsilon, the first time we had any girls elected to this honorary in a number of years These girls were elected to Theta Alph.a, honorary, OtMr honoraries electing Pi Phis to Lambda Tau Rho, Sigma Chi Alpha , Phi Kappa Phi , Sigma Alpha Iota. Three of our girls made Alpha Epsilon EDsilon The president of Women's Board is a Pi Phi. This is one of the very highest positions

on the campus and the chapter was very happy to have a Pi Phi to this position this year. The same girl was elected president of Sigma Upsi. Ion Alpha, the honorary fraternity of the College of Architecture. She is the o nly woman member of the Syracuse chapter and the o nly to be president of this chapter. She was also elected by the Chapel to represent it at the annual Silver Bay Conference this summer. Pi Phi was to the Theta Sigma Phi convention in Texas this summe r, This girl is aJso vicepresident of that fraternity, A Pi Phi has the honor of being the on ly woman to Phi Be ta K:lPPIl this year. A Pi Phi is on the first cabinet of Chapel and on the second cabinet there are five Pi Phis. Mem bers of chapter are on the executive committets of of the f our classes, The chapter has a number of girls holding important positions on The Daily Orange, Other positions held by of the chapter are: secretary of the sophomore class, secretary of Student Senate, secretary of City Women's Club, chairman o f Pan hellenic Blue Book Committee, president of the H ome Fire D ivisio n of Wars, tenni s manager, W A.A, Board. freshman debate team, R O T.C. Sponsor, Onolldaxan staH, tennis doubles champion, of Tau Sigma secretary of Sigma Upsilon Alpha. Six girls in the chapter are on dean's l ist. A Pi Ph i was chosen as of the seven junior beauties.

New Yorl.:: A reports a definite improvement in scholarshi p over last year, The chapter has also made further improvements in the chapter by purchasing studio couches for second Boor rooms, and they expect to purchase desks for some of the rooms this summer. This chapter is using from fines to start a library for the chapter house,

Frank Ruth of New York A the very high honor of winnin.ll; Amy B. Onken Award for Alpha Frank is presi. dent of Balch dormitories and holds many honors on the campus. York d has one member o f M ortar Board who has also been elected women's editor of the Cornell Daily Sun. Two Pi Phis are of college dormitories, one of Sage College and other of Risley Hall. A number of the girls are active in dramatics and Pi Phi has been well represented on class com · mittees and teas. Pi Phis are active on the soccer teams of the freshman, junior. and senior classes. The chapter has a member of Kappa Delta Epsil o n , honorary fraternity. The of Cornell United ReliAious is a Pi Phi , as as a secretary of the organization. This is both its delegate and to convention,

The chapter house of New Y o rk r has been entirely and is now very attractive, and should be a great help to the chapter. Anum · of Pi Phis hold hiAh honors on this campus, Three girls in the are members of Kal o n , an honorary comparable to Mortar Board. The has a member of Phi Beta Kappa, president of Women's Association , treasurer of W A A ., president of Siu Club , manager of varsity basketball, of Women Students Government Association. The co-ed editor of the Hill News is a Pi Ph i and this same girl is a member of the university debate team. This year the chapter won the basketball trophy. Thjs

chapter and the other two New Yorlc chapters arc very fortunate in having fine chaperons who are conscientious in their efforts to strengthen their chapters in every way

As the year draws to a dose, 1 shouJd like to thank all my chapters for tMir many and for their cooperation during the year. J have

Ethe experience of working with these chapters, with Grand Council, and particularly with Miss Onken, whose wiSt counsel and sympathetic understanding make the position of province presi. dent a joy.

RtSpectfuily submitted, CHARLOTrE MAllTIN Fox

BETA PROVINCE PRESIDENT

VERY province officer must feel, as I have come to feel, that nowhere can there be a finer group of girls than those in her chapters. I have derived much pleasure from my work with the chapters of Dda Proyjn ce--the pleasure that comes from contact with growing things. Regardless of present accomplishments, each is striving for improvement in some respect.

Since my chapters had the privilege of visits from Mrs . Alford and Mrs . Webster in the fall, my visits necessarily were made during the second semes ter. Up until that time I had been able to keep in dose touch with the groups through our system of correspondence which we installed last year. Through letters and through contacts during my visits I feel a real spirit of cooperation among my gids with a willingness to recei ve suggestions which will solve their difficulties, and an eagerness to carry on with each other and with me. This cooperative spirit has been commented upon by all deans of women in Beta Province They have expressed their appreciation of the help which Pi Phi has given in the furtherance of campus activities which the college authorities wish promoted . All deans of women have shown a real interest in each member's participation in activities as well as her scholastic achievement.

Scholarship, ever a problem. is not all it should be in some of the chapters. However, the evident concern over ratings and the earnest constructive methods to improve which are being tried should bring results. Pennsylvania r and Ohio B hold .6rst place on thei r campuses, and the rank of aII other chapters has been raised in some degree this year. Perhaps soon we shall realize our desire for first place on each campus.

Each chapter has well represented our Frater· nity o n its campus and many signa l honors have come to the grours and to individuals Ohio B, our honor chapter a last year in receiving honorable mention, is again in the first rank with fifty ·eight different girls participating in activities, many of them receiving several honors. As a whole the has been well represented in dramatics, journalism , athletics, and popularity contests along with the foll ow ing honors: seven Phi Beta Kappas; eight Mortar Board members; two Pi Lambda Thetas ; one with Distinction: three Delta Phi Deltas with one president; nine Kappa Delta Pis with one president; four Chimes; three Wheel and Chain; five Matrix; four Forum; four Orchesis; one member Who's Who Among Co/llge SIll'

dents Ilf U.S.A.: three presidents o f W.S.G .A . with three vice-presidents, three treasurers, and two secretaries; one vice-president of Y .W.C. A with two treasurers, one secretary, and thirteen cabinet members; one presid ent of Mortar Board; one or more members in Chi Delta Phi , Theta Sigma Phi , Alpha Delta Theta, Phi Mu Epsilon, Tau Sigma Delta, Alpha Alpha Kappa, Alpha Kappa Delta , Sigma Tau Delta, Delta Phi Alpha, Theta Alpha Phi; and eight presidents o f other camDus organizations. As chaperons in our province we are fortunate in having women who are charming in manner as well as genuinely interested in helping the girls to feel that their chapter houses are truly chapter homes. Only three of the chaptert maintain houses One has a suite in a dormitory and two have attractive apartments for chapter and for entertaining.

Advisory boards in all instances have shown real interest and a keen desire to make their chapters superior in every way They are vital to chapter progress, and I believe that their splendid work is rewarded by the knowledge that they have given of themselves to further the ideals of Pi Beta Phi.

I that the chapters in Beta Province have .cenerally improved this year, and I believe that the girls themselves have a feeling of having progressed. They all are vitally interested in the Settlement School and each chapter has contributed liberaJly to it and to the Loan and Endowment Funds this year. All groups s«m to have a keener realization of the Fraternity nationally, and they are anxious for cootacts with other chapters and with nati o nal officers. Ow province round-robin may have had some influence upon them, as most certainly did the contacts with Mrs. Alford and Mrs. Webster. The cooperation given me has been a real inspiration which I have tried to give back to the chapters as we have carried on through the year together.

M y three years as president of Beta province have been full o f rich experiences and valuable contacts and I shall always be grateful to the Fraternity for this opportunity which I have enjoyed Miss Onken has helped me over many uncertain places and I very thankful for her patience and guidance these years. To her and to all of the national officers I wish to express my thanks for this contact with Pi Beta Phi

Respectfully submitted, LoIS SNYDER FINGER

GAMMA PROVINCE PRESIDENT

I T WAS with a feeling of great trepidati on that I took over the duties of province president last fall following the fine work of my predecessor, and it is with keen regret that I find I will not

have the time to give to this interesting office that is due the chapters. The contacts I have made through visits to the chapters in the fall , and through correspondence with various officers have

been delightful. and J shall cherish sweet memories of young friendships through the years to come.

I have 1>«n impressed with the earnestness of our Pi Phis, and their willingness to discuss situa. tions and to seele: advice I feel that they have made progress this year, and trust that this goes on and on. There has been evident an int erest in the national fratern ity that is enco uraging.

Only two of the chapters visited have main. tained homes and these arc charming, and under splendid chaperonage . Scholarship throughou t the province has im· proved in some cases,-in ot hers has dropped a few points One chapter holds first place for the second time, and boasts of a Phi Beta Kappa. An· other chapter has risen from eighth to third place. In each chapter there are scholars of bigh average.

Activiti es are well distributed in the majority of cases. Honor societies on every campu, number among them our Pi Phis Some of the out5tanding h on ors which the chapters hold include two mem · bers of Phi Kappa Phi, several members of Chi Delta P hi, president of sophomore class, president of Econ omics Gub and of French Club, chairman of May D ay, vice·pW!sident of student government, a representative of a college in "Who's Who in American Colleges and Universities," several of· fleers and members of Alpha Kappa Gamma, honorary leadership fraternity, president of Christian A ssociatio n Editors of week ly papers, chairman of social standards and many others . All of the chap· ters are well represented in the literary and dramatic o rganizations as well as in the fi eld of sports.

Conferences with the respective deans of women proved very interesting. On some campuses the deans arc not in sympathy with fraternities and

Tonly know the chapter by the individual girls; in these cases our Pi Phis were well spoken of, and in no case did I hear that Pi Phi chapters or the individual Pi Phis failed to cooperate with administrations. On the contrary, the impression was left with me that Pi Ph is could always be depended on.

I n some of the chapters rushing was very successful, and in cases where few were taken in, the active chapters were anxious to improve their scho larship standi ng and felt that it could best be done by careful selection of rushees.

The majority if not all of the chapters, have contributed to the causes dear to Pi Beta Phi.

New rushing rul es are to be put into effect on o ne campus this fall , and it is to be hoped th at P an hell enic will be improved by them.

The chapters have, as a general rule, had the warm support of their alumnre. The advisory boards have worked unanimously with the chapters and too much cannot be said in their praise Personal conferences with the respective boards have exhibited a deep interest in the chapters and the frateroity and the members have given of their time and interest freely

The Arrowene, Gamma Province's inter·chap· te r publication , has been edited by four chapters, each showing very origina l ideas. I t is hoped that another year will see a ll of the chapters participating in this delightful means of promoting fellows hip between the chapters of the province.

Cooperation on the part of the chapters has been excellent. I am deeply appreciative of the op p ortunity that has been given me and leave the work with sincere regret. H ow ever my deep interest in Gamma Province will never wane.

ADAIR. TAYLOR. AIKEN

GAMMA PROVINCE PRESIDENT

:-u s MONTH and a half during which I have been fortunate in serving Pi Beta Phi as Gamma Province President has been a busy time. M y contribution t o my Fraternity has been negli· gible, but its contrib ution to me has been great indeed. For the first time I have been able to see v ery dearly the whole pict ure of our great orga nization. It is my earnest desire that this may be broug ht to each Pi Phi

M y kn owledge of Gamma Province con· d i tions has been gained from the informative letters and repor ts of the chapters and of Mrs . Wyatt Aiken , whose loss as president is most unfortunate for the provin ce_

The seven chapters in this province vary in their conditions, living arrangements, and schools about as much as any chapters could, despite their geographical grouping. There is one thing in common: their desire to uphold Pi Phi aims and ideals and to develop themselves along the lines of scholarship. campus activities, and social recogn ition Some, of course, are mo re successful in the ir accomplishment of these th ings than others.

These chapters are located in state and privately endowed schools. There are two women's colleges, Goucher College and Rando lphMacon Woman's George Washington Uoi· versity , of William and Mary, and the University of South Carol ina are cocduational. The University of orth Carolina accept5 only

women of junior and senior standing. At Duke University women have the advantages of a private woman's college and of a coeducational schooL Some of the deans of women on these campuses seem to refuse to conside r any fraternity as such, others are warm in their praise

The living conditions also vary greatly. Only two chapters have members living in a Pi Beta Phi h ouse. One chapter owns a lodge, two rent apartments, and on e has an attractive room in the Panhellenic house . Due to several misfortunes with a rented house one chapter finally resorted to meeting at the hom e of a town member the latter part of this year.

The chap ter enrollment ranges from in the smallest chapter to thirty-one in th e largest. The largest pledge group this year was seventeen, the smallest, four.

There are active alumnr dubs, whose support is invaluable to the chapters, in four of the seven college towns in Gamma Province where there are Pi Beta Phi chapters. Each chapter is fortunate in having an interested active alumn:e advisory com· Great credit should be p;iven the Joyal Pi Phi aJumn:r who serve so faithfully.

Wh ile there are not ye t statistics available for the scholastic standing of all the Gamma Province chapters for the close of this school year, one might say the scholarship is fair excer.t in two instances. North Carolina A has led all ratemities

on its campus for the last two quarters. Virginia r holds sKond place at William and Mary. Each chapter seems to have tried to participate in extracurricular activities, with good There have been numerous chairmen of various important student social functions such u the Junior Sing-Song at Goucher, Panhellenic Prom at George Wuhington, May Day at RandolphMacon, and Social Standards at Duke. There are three members of Mortar Board, including a president and secretary of that organization at William and Mary, and seven members of similar organizations, an annual editor, a literary magazine editor, a golf champion, president of a Christian association, president of an economics dub, a vice ·president of Student Government. the of a sophomore class, a dormitory president, maid of honor in a May Court, and seven members o f various May Courts, and one student listed in

AWho's Who Among SllIdnrts In Am"ican ColI'l,es.

In addition to these. Pi Phi5 have their share of minor class odicers and good representation on the Student Councils, school publications, in dramatics. literary societies, athletic associations, and glee clubs.

The province is 100 per Cent in its contribution to the Endowment Fund, Settlement School, and to the Loan Fund.

Five of the seven chapters have published numbers of the ArrowetJe, Gamma Province's interchapter publication. These booklets arc both unique and informative, helping to bring a closer relationship among the Province chapters.

1 am grateful for my brief contact with these Pi Phis. and to Miss Onken, whose patience and wise COOOliel have been inspiring.

DELTA PROVINCE PRESIDENT

NOTHER year of delightful contacts with the cha pters of Delta Province has come to a close, bringing to Delta Province President a rene"'ed belief in the value of college fraternities in general and in Pi Beta Phi io particular. Three of the chapters were visited in the fall and three after the holidays and again 1 was inspired by the willingness to accept suggestions and the desire on the part of the members to improve the chapters.

Cooperation hu been excellent and the monthly reports have given me much more than the needed information concerning the chapters. The attitude toward scholarship has been wholesome in five of the groups although the comparative standing on individual campuses has not been as high for some chapters as we would like it to be. Michigan Alpha carries off the honors for the province by having for the seventh con5«Utive the highest average for women's fraternities on its campus. We have had one member of Phi Beta Kappa and a member of a similar organization and three Phi Kappa Phis One of our seniors graduated magna fum laNde and received a cup for having had the highest average for the four years.

As a result of a successful rushing season our splendid pledge groups ranged in size from nine to thirty, with a total of one hundred eleven. Michi· gan Alpha was fortunate enough to initiate for the second consecutive year, all of its pledges remaining in school for the .second semester. Pledge supervisors were well chosen and gave to their groups constructive training. Three of our campuses have quota systems and all chapters have had pleasant Panhellenic relationships.

Indiana Gamma has had the pleasure of completing and moving into its new chapter house this spring. This chapter had not owned a house previouslr and the realization of this dream has meant much to both actives and alumnle. Michigan Alpha and Beta, Indiana Beta and Delta have majntained their attractive and comfortable houses, with fresh· men housed on each of their campuses in freshman residences. Indi ana Alpha has a suite of rooms in the college dormitory, the chapter room of which was beautifully redecorated lut faJI. We began the year with but one new chaperon, Mrs. Margurite Turner , a PI Phi mother, with Michigan Beta. We deeply regrer that Mrs. Ralph Cheadle, Indiana

Delta's chaperon for the past ten years, will not be with them again. The chapter is very much indebted to her for her interest and wise guidance.

The alumnae of Delta Province have been very active and helpful. Although Alumnae Advisory Committees vary in methods and effectiveness, it is indeed gratifying to know that so many alum. are wiling to give so much in time and service to the active chapters. The Michigan chapters held individual Founders' Day celebrations while aU Indiana chapters joined the alumnr of the state in observing the day in Indianapolis. We have three active Mothers' Clubs, the Indiana Gamma Mothers' Club being largely responsible for the furnishings of the new house.

Conferences with Deans of Women were very satisfactory. AU had many words of praise for the actives and alumnae of Pi Beta Phi. Only one criti. cized in any way the chapter on her campus. Our finances are excellent and all chapters have contributed to the Settlement School, Loan and Endowment Funds,

Delta Province has had the pleasure of entertain. ing two members of Grand Council during the past year. The Grand Vice President visited the Michi. gan chapters and the Grand Secretary visited Indiana chapters. Each group gained an JDspiration and a deeper appreciation of the Fraternity from these members of Pi Beta Phi who give so much to it, and the province grew in national viewpoint as a result of this contact.

A complete list of activities and honors for the six chapters would be a long one. Some of them are, Editor of the college paper, editor of a literacy magazine, president of glee club, outstanding woman on one campus and outstanding senior woman on another, secretary of Woman ' s League, six memo bers of Mortar Board and three of similar organizations, a represen tative of the student body at Founders' Day banquet. We have had a chairman of May Day, chairman of Junior Girls' Play, members of University debate teams on two campuses, four members Y .W .CA cabinet on one, a Relay Queen, Sophomore Sweetheart, Cadet Colonel of R.O.T.e., members of student council, a director of an all university musical production , a French government decoration for proficiency in the French language. We have officers and members of Theta Sigma Phi, Mu Phi, Taps, Pleiades, Alpha Lambda

Delta, Tau Sigma Delta, Pi Lambda Theta, Undergraduate Club, Epsilon Delta Alpha, German Club, Wyvem, German Club and class honorary organizations. Only one chapter needs to put greater stress on participation in extra -curricular activities.

Surely no girl has gone out from an active chapter of Pi Beta Phi, no matter how brief the contact, who has not had some vision, who has not had some practical social experience that will be

Tof value all her life This belief makes the work of an alumna a real pleasure. I am indeed grateful for the close contact which I have had with the fraternity during the past two years and the hospi. tality of the actives and alumn:r of Delta Province will always be a precious memory. I am happy to have had some small part in the work of Pi Beta Phi.

HELEN ScOTT

EPSILON PR O VINCE PRESIDENT

HE THREE years I have spent working with the five chapters in Epsilon Province will always stand out in my mind as happy ones. They have deepened my appreciation of Pi Phi, have brought many interesting exeriences, and a host of new friends. I only hope I have been able to return a little of the inspiration for fraternity work and ideals that the girls have given me.

In the interim of conventions all five chapters in Epsilon Province have had their full quota of official visits, and Missouri A has had two additional unofficial visits during their two rush weeks. Missouri A, Missouri B, and Missouri r were visited by Miss Onken. They gained much in inspiration and broadened vision from our Grand President. Tennessee A and Kentucky A were visited by Mrs. Webster. They were inspired by her conception of our Fraternity ideals. My visi ts to Missouri A, Missouri B, and Missouri r were made in the early fall, and my visits to Tennessee A and Kentucky A were made in February. My delightful day at the Settlement School, as the guest of Tennessee A, will always stand out in my memories.

Rush season was most successful for all of the chapters. Pledge supervision was very good and a large percentage of pledges was able to be initiated.

There has been some improvement in scholarship in the province during the past year. Tennessee A holds first place on its campus, Kentucky A ranks third, Missouri A ranked eighth at the end of first semester, Missouri B came up to seventh, and Missouri r ranked second on its campus. Epsilon Province has two new members of Phi Beta Kappa, one at Missouri A and one at Missouri B.

Many honors have come to members of the five chapters, but I shall enumerate only the major ones. Work in extracurricular activities has been well scattered. Tennessee A leads the province with two members elected to senior honorary similar to Mortar Board; president of W .A.A.; president, vice-president, and of Y.W.CA.; president of Les Independent (French honorary) ; secretary and the treasurer of the senior class; secretary and also treasurer of iunior class; secretary of Student Body; six members in Theta Alpha Phi; one member elected to Pi Gamma Mu ; two elected to Gamma Sigma Epsilon; one elected to Inter· national Relations Club (the only fraternity woman taken this year); one elected Miss University of Chattanooga; one elected the most popular co-ed; one selected for Who'J Who in Amn;("fI (the only girl selected from the university); and the president of Panhellenic. Kentucky A has : vice-president of the Y Club; secretary of the sophomore class; vice-president of the junior class; freshman representative on Student Council; secretary of Chemistry Club; treasurer of Woman 's League; the Campus Valentine; and leads in several plays. Missouri A won these honors: one

elected to Phi Beta Kappa; one member of Mortar Board; one elected to Kappa Tau Alpha; sec retary-treasurer of Student Council; representative from Arts and Science on Student Council; Homecoming Queen; and a Savit"r Beauty Queen (yearbook) . Missouri B announces these honors: one Phi Beta Kappa; one elected to Mortar Board; president of W.S.G.A.; one on Freshman Commission; vice-president of Thyrsus (dramatic); one elected to Tanea (literary); two elected to Eta Sigma Phi; three elected to Sigma Phi Epsilon; one elected to Kappa Beta Pi; vice ·president of W.A.A.; junior class secretary; and first place in the interfraternity sing. Missouri r announces: two elected to Skiff (similar to Mortar Board); secretary of senior class; three elected to Freshmen Tenth (highest fourteen freshmen in scholarship); president of Drury Lane Troupers; two elected to Pi Gamma Mu; one elected to Sigma Tau Delta ; member on Y.W.CA. cabinet; May Queen; Senior Beauty .Queen; and the lead in the senior play. Missouri A, the only chapter in Epsilon Province living in a chapter house, is still very proud of their lovely house which is now six old. They are most fortunate in retaining Mrs. Curtis Hill as chaperon. She has been with the chapter since 1926. She is an excellent chaperon and is well liked by the girls. Missouri B is very proud of their room in the Woman's Building which was completely redecorated this year by their alumn:r. Missouri r has added new fumishings to their apartment which is located dose to the campus. Tennessee A's alumna! have made their bungalow more attractive this year. Kentucky A has added new slip covers and made their apartment very attractive

Without excertion, the deans of women have spoken highly 0 Pi Beta Phi. In every instance the deans spoke of their reliance upon our chapters and the high position the chapters held on the campus.

A report would not be complete without mentioning the advisory boards, for they play such an important part in chapter life. All of the chapters in the province are fortunate in having active, interested, and efficient boards, composed of splen. did women who are giving liberally of their time and thought to help Pi Phi maintain its high position on every campus. Alumnz and mothers' clubs co'ntinue to prove themselves a vital force in the constructive development of their respective chapters.

All five of the chapters contributed generously and unselfishly to the Settlement Schoo l. the Endowment Fund , and the Loan Fund. and in many other ways have shown their real interest in the Fraternity.

I want to express my appreciation of the loyalty and cooperation of my chapters. These happy ex-

with such charming Pi Phis will never be forgotten.

J am glad for the opportunity of serving Pi Beta Phi as EpsiJon Province P resident. I want to

Tthank Miss Onken and all other officers of the Fraternity for their constant help and inspiration. Respectfully submitted, AGNES HJLDEBl..AND DANiEl

ZET A PROVINCE PRESIDENT

HE YE.AJl 1936 has b«n the stage for a great many changes of scenes and events in the theater of Zeta Province. There have been prob. lems, some successfully met and some which will be better judged in the comi ng years. But on the whole the chapters have had a well -ba lanced year. They have cooperated wel l and h ave proven worthy chapters of the Fraternity.

In the main, her chapters have had efficient officers and much o f the progress in each group is attributable to their wise and able leadership. J regret that the state convention had to be postpo n ed this year for it wou ld have a valuable experi ence.

In the matter of scholarship, two of the chapters, Florida B and Florida r , have showed decided improvement, raising themselves into the upper fourths on their respective campuses. Al abama A and Fl orida A we nt from first to second place in scholarship on their respective campuses. Th ey held first place during the first semes ter of th e yea r' s term. In each chapte r a study hail system has been employed f or those making grades be low a S o. average.

The rushing systems have improved slip:htly. There are changes being made in three of the colleges of the prov ince wh ich will upset the systems eve n m o re . The qu o ta idea is being adopted at Fl orid a B , Fl o rida r , and Fl o rida A In the la st mentioned chapter there will be second semester ru shing this fall. The chapters have the reputat io n in each instan ce o f "clean rush ing ."

Conferences with the deans of women have been most enjoyable and helpful. It was indeed gratifying to know th at in none of the institut ions was there a lack of cooperation with the college or P a nhellen ic. Three o f the deans of women ranked Pi Beta Phi as first on their campuses and the o ther ranked the Fraternity first in many respects and among the bes t from all s tandpoints

Th e two chapters living in h ouses h ave

fortunate in having splendid women to chaperon them. Their work and interest for the actives cannot be too deeply appreciated Their cooperation at chapter inspectio n periods was most helpful.

Int erest and participation in ac ti vit ies has continued to improve in the province during the year. Mo re of the members are p art ra ther than relying o n a few more o utstanding girls to carry the laurels for th e group. M a nv hono rs have come to the chapters this year, f ar beyond th e achievements o f last.

The financial status of the chapters has paralle led the improved conditio ns of the tim es. There have been fewer deli nquen cies since before the "economic stress." Each of the chapters contributed to the Settlement School and, in addition, to either the Endowment or U nd ergradaute Loan Fund.

Fl orida .A and Fl o rid a r have been cooperating more dosely th is year. They s hared Fo unders ' Day togethe r and had a social after o ne of the intercollegiate football games. We h ope that this year we have laid the foundation fo r an interp rovince magazine for next year. The state conve nti o n will likewise bring the alumnz and actives into closer contact . It is difficult to measure or express the depth of a ffecti o n Zeta Provi nce President feels for these four chapters. Their Jove of the Fraternity and desire to make it s idea ls their own has made this position a rare privilege Each chapter has been ou tstanding in some measure and I am proud of their achievements. As a lways. it is impossible to thank Mi ss Onken for her advice , assistance, and encouragement in terms adequate to do her justice. And to all the members o f Grand Council I w ish to express my sincere appreciation for their constant guidan ce. It has been a memorable experience to have served Pi Beta Phi in the ca pacity of province pres iden t

ALL BUT ONE chapter was visited by Grand Counfi. cil thi s year, so my visits were later in the year. Miss Onken vis ited Wi sconsin A, Wisconsi n B, lJIinois Z, and Ill inois 11 Mrs Stark visited Illinois .A and Illin ois B-.6 Illin ois E was the only chapter that did n ot have the inspiration of a Grand Officer 's vi sit this year, but Miss Onken visited them la st year, and they s till feel, from that contact, the des ire to build in character a chapter based on Pi Beta Phi ideals. I was ill and unable to visit W iscons in A and Wisconsin B but Mrs . Web. ster, A ssistant to the Gra nd Presid ent , made these visits, and since she was provi n ce president three years the girls welcomed her with delight.

Last year I boasted of three chapters who were first o n their campus in sch olarship Thi s yeu I ca n boast of only two. They are again Wisconsin B and Ill ino is B-.6. H owever, Illin ois Z was third

and Illin ois E f o urth, both competing with more than twenty others, a splendid record . The ot her three chapters were low in rank, but only fracti o ns lo wer in grades. Every chapter has a working supervision of s cholarship, and if they remain scholarship-minded as they are now, their grades can always be high.

Every chapter in this province is prominent in activities, There is little p oss ibility of comparison, as the larges t schoo l has 12 .917 students and the smallest school only 42S. Fo ur girls have been elected to Phi Beta K appa, two on campuses withou t Phi Beta Kappa have received their school's highest scholastic scholarship honor Fi ve have been elected to M ortar Board , and three schools without Mortar Board had g irls e lected to the equiva lent on their campus. Five of the seven chapters have edi tors of college publications, which I feel is a

splendid record. One has the presiden t of Y W .C A and three have the pres ident of W A A I will n ot begin to list the many important com· mittees they '9o'ere on, and th e great of m i nor honors that came to them .

The chapten in this provi nce have given 100 per cent to the Sct tleme nt School, the Endowment Fund, and the Loan Fund The c hapters and the alumna: advisory committees work harmoniously. and I do fed that much credit should be given to these women who give o f their tim e and thought The chapte rs th e ir help and do appreciate it.

The hous ing situa t io n is much the 'tune thi s year Wiscon sin B has had some redeco rating don e, and Illinois A, with the help of their alumme,

Uhas red ecorated and refurnished its room. Bti. n ois Z has made its chapter room attractive by deco rating it in wine and blue, a nd IIli· n ois H has had its wh ole house beautifully re· decorated . The dean of w omen o n every cam pus had a good report of Pi Beta Ph i. All of the chapters seem to cooptrate with the college and on every campus Pi Beta Phi is ranked as one of the strong· est groups.

We all have confidence in ou r Fl1lternity ; re· spect and admiration for our Grand Council; and I speak fo r every chapter in Eta Provi nce when I say we are grateful.

THETA PROVINCE PRESIDENT

PO N the res ignation of Elizabeth Carpenter Buxt o n, Thda Province President for f our years, in Oct obe r, J took o ffi ce and v is ited the Io wa chapters, Minnesota A, and N orth Dak o ta A in November and December, thereby having per· sonal contact alm ost imm edia tely Manitoba A 1 left until January. Since Pi Phi con tacts f o r us in Winn i peg are somewhat limited, it was a privilege for me to meet so many members, alumnI'!, actives, and pledges of ou r Fraternity. The kindness shown by everyone impressed me greatly

Three chapters Manit o ba A, North Dakota A, and Minnesota A, were visited by Ruth Barrett Smith thi s spring and were greatly benefited and inspired.

Five o f the chapters maintain h o uses, on e of which h opes to have a new one with i n the next year. All the chaperons were the same as ously. The other two chapters have rooms ; ooe chapter, due to college regulations. the other be· cause all the members are town girls

The im portance and number of possible activi· ties differs with each group. There have bttn many high hon o rs wo n throughout the province. among which are four Morta r Boards, one of wh o m is president ; two Ph i Beta Kappas ; the two highes t offices on o ne campus and three members of M oro ns, an honora ry literary organization; ten on Y .W .C. A . Cabinet, o ne of whom is president; president of W .A.A .; business manager of co ll ege paper; H omecoming Queen five representative

Twomen. In addi ti o n , t here have been many o ther presiden cies of clubs o f a ll kinds, other offices , and committee positions.

Scholarship has im p ro ved One chapter stood first for spring and fall semesters in succession. An other chapter wa s first for 1934-35; the actives and pledges combined were first in fall quarter examinations. Three chapters ra ised their places on the c am pus, one raising itself fr o m eighteenth to third place Two othe r chapters ace working hard to regai n former high places.

At the time of this report, aU but one chapter had contributed to the Settlement School and the Loan Fund , while three chapters were yet to contribute to the End o wment Fund.

The adviso ry boards of all chapters have been very active, helping the ind i vidual needs of each chapter. They have all worked diligently and the results have been clearly shown .

As the yeu closes , I wish to express to the girls of this province my IfPpreciati o n for the way in which they have cooperated , and received and carried out suggestions . I have thoroughly en joyed my associations with them and am very gratdu l for such a privilege.

To M iss Onken and t et Grand Council, lowe si ncere g ratitude fo r being given this opportunity to serve in our Fraternity and for the help offer ed at all times.

IOTA PROVINCE PRESIDENT

HIs SECOND year as Pro v i nce President has meant renewed friendships and co ntinued pleasures in this work.

Iota Provi nce President visi ted all of the seven chapters early last fall. South Dako ta A was the only chapter in this province to have a Grand Council visitor, and they entertained Mrs Sm ith this spring The chapters have all been very con· scien tious about rqx>rts, requests, and so forth, and have coopented with this office 100 per cent.

Scho larship ttpOrts are very much better this year. South Da kota A , Colorado B, an d Wyoming A are first on their campuses. Kansas A made the biggest gain and is now i.n third place K ansas B moved up three places. and Colorado A came fr o m

tenth to fourth place. Nebraska B is the only chapter that is not in the upper half On it s campus. The extracurricular activities in Io ta Provmcc are worthy of note South D akota A had a member in Mortar Board, " M iss Dak o ta," president (natio nal and local) of Guidion, three Alpha Lambda Deltas and three Phi Sigma Iotas.

I t IS imposs ible for Iota Province President to express in words her feeJing toward the chapters She is proud of their records and achievemc:nts, and will always carry the happiest of memories of the girl5 who made her chapter visits so c:njoyahle. To Miss Onken and the members of Grand Counol she is most grateful.

FAITH MARTIN HANNA

KAPPA PROVINCE PRESIDENT

A S I END my first term as province president I .n realiu how fortunate I have been to have had the opportunity of being SO closely associated with the six splend id chapters of Kappa Province. Although the office has required a great deal of time and thought, I feel that the efforts put forth on my part have only in a small way compensated for what I have gained in rich friendships and fraternity vision.

The cooperation which J have received from my chapters has been gratifying indeed. J have kept in very close contact with each, nrst, through my annual visit early in the year, then later with monthly reports and weekly letters.

It has been interesting to watch the growth of national viewpoint in this province. This has been stimulated by contacts with national officers of the Fraternity. Each chapter has been fortunate during the past two years in receiving visits from members of Grand Council. Oklahoma A and Oklahoma n received an official visit from Mrs. Smith, Grand Vice-President; Texas A and Texas B, from Mrs. Stark, Grand Arkansas A and Louisiana A from MI'l. Webster, Assistant to the Grand President. Besides these official visits , it has been the pleasure of each chapter to entertain Mrs. Stark at least once Texas A also entertained Mrs. Web· ster and Mrs Alford, while Louisiana A. had the rare privilege of all the members of Grand Council as they returned from Biloxi, Mis· sissippi, where they attended National Panhellenic Congress. Through the efforts of Mrs. Williamson, Province Viet-President, and the Shreveport Alumnz Club, the Kappa Province Conclave was held in Shreveport, LouJsiana, in June 1935. Our Grand Vice-President, Mrs. Smith. was the honor guest and her presence was an inspiration to both the actives and alumn&!'. Each chapter is proud of the great honor that has come to the province through the Balfour Cup Award to Texas A and is making a valiant effort to ,ctain national recognition also. Scholarship for the past two years has had its ups and downs. Texas A, the largest chapter in the province, now ranks .second on her campus, be. ing preceded only by a very small chapter. Okla. homa A has stayed at the top on her campw for eight consecutive semesters, ranking from first to third, and now ranks second. Oklahoma B and Arkansas A, both of which ranked 6rst last year, have dropped to fifth and sixth places, respectively

I am especially proud of the record of Texas B which has come from ninth place last year to fifth place this year . Louisiana A ranks somewhere in the middle of the nine groups on her campus.

Four chapters maintain h ouso while two are only allowed chapter rooms Oklahoma n 's house ha, been remodeled and attractively refurnished during thc= past year. Both Arkansas A and Oklahoma A. have handsome, substantial houses which are entirely adequate for the chapters' needs. Texas A is completing plans for a new house which is to be built in the near future. Louisiana A is fortunate in having chapter rooms in a bungalow adjoining the Newcomb campus. It is to be hoped that some provision .;viII soon be made on the S.M.U. campus for chapter rooms which will be more convenient for Texas B.

No change has been made in chaperons. The four chapters having houses have been unusually fortunate in having in that capacity women who are well chosen. They have been Joyal in their service and each group reflects their fine influence.

The chapters have been outstanding in extracurricular activities, with interest and cooperation growing each year. Since last Convention, there have been nine Phi Beta Kappas, or its equivalent; eleven Mortar Boards, or similar honors; eleven Alpha Lambda Deltas; four W.S G.A. presidents; one state Y.W.C.A. president; two presidents of Panhellenic, and one Sigma Xi. Each chapter has also been well represented in other honorary organizations, departmental dubs, athletic organizations, and has had its sbare of queens, dass officers, editors, and student committee positions.

My conferences with the deans of women have been interesting and he:Jpful. In each instance they were sincere in their praise and constructive in criticism that was occasionally offered.

Rushing has been generally successful, especially this yeaI'. There has been a tendency in three chapters to too many, but this is due to the wealth of good material that is offered by the six colleges in this province and the rapidly increasing obligations of each chapter. Two chapters are handicapped by the quota system.

Too much credit cannot be given the aJumnz advisory committees. They have been effective in their organization and have Aiven the active chapters invaluable assistance.

Each chapter has a thorough appreciation of

our national and I am happy to say that this year the contributions to the Endowment Fund, the Loan Fund , and the School arc 100 per cent.

To Grand Council I wish to express my appreciation for the inspiration and assistance they have given me. It has 1>«0 a pleasure to serve my

TFraternity under their guidance. I am deeply grateful to my chapters for their splendid coope:ration and to the aJumnz for their support and kindly interest. It is with regret that I end this term as president of Kappa Province.

LAMBDA PROVINCE PRESIDENT

HIS THIRD year as Lambda Province President has hem a very happy and gratifying one for me. There have b«n o nly a few minor problems. in the chapters and, with the aid of the members and of the alumnI! advisory committees concerned, these difficulties have been mostly overcome. All of the delegates for Convention have been so well chosen that I feel certain that they will return to their schools in the fall with an enthusiasm and a broade r national viewpo i nt which will be of inestimable value to their chapters.

The scholarship of the province has not been as as we had hoped for. We have three of the chapters in the upper third, two in the middle third. and one in the lower third At the University of Alberta, there is no comparative grading of the various groups. There have been seven girls in the province with straight "A " averages.

With one exception, I have had splendid coop!ration from the chapters this year. Tbe officers were very well chosen and have worked for the Fraternity and with me i n every way possible. My contacts with these girls have been pleasant ones.

These seven chapters, with one exception, ex· petie-need very successful rus hing seasons. The increased enrollm ent in the various schools gave such a wealth of material from which to choose and Pi Phi was most fortunate in pledging many fine freshmen A few did not make sufficient grades to be initiated which emphasizes to the chapters the fact that they must pay particular attention to a rushee's high school record Our fine pledge supervisors have worked faithfully toward training these pledges for future active Pi Phis There was n o report of any Panhellenic difficulty.

The finances through o ut the province are in excellent condition. With a ll of the chapter houses full to capacity. our worries of a few years aAO have disappeared, All of the. chapters, with the exception of Alberta A, are living in their ow n homes. Montana A moved into their lovely new chapter home this fall They occupy one of six units that were constructed with government funds_ With the central kitchen food for the six various units. it is a m os t interesting experiment here in the nor thwest, and I am happy to report that it is working out so successfully.

The deans of women were very complimentary and fe lt that Pi Phis were decidedly a power for

Dgood on their respective campuses. In each instance dean spoke of the fine cooperation that she and the other college authorities had from the chapter.

Lambda Province has been fortunate this year in having such superior women for chapter house chaperons. Their gracious manners are reBected by the feeling of real hospitality that one encounters in the chapter homes. We are expecting each one to return to her chapter this fall.

This has been a banner year for extracurricular activities and honors . We have two presidents and one vice·president of A.W,S.; one vice-president, and one secretary of Associated. Students; one presi · dent and o n e secreta ry of W.A A.; two receiving the Mortar Board Award for the most outstanding junior women on the campus; one junior receiving a cup for the most outstandi ng girl on her campus; a queen of the junior prom; eleven Mortar Boards; nine Phi Kappa Phis; one Phi Beta Kappa, and many in other honoraries such as Psi Chi , Pbi Chi Theta, Omicron Nu, and many others. One of the seniors has received a scholarship to Mills College for research work in psychology

The alumna! advisory committees have given the cha pters such splendid supervision and, with one exception, have cooperated with me i n every way possible. The amount of time and thought that these women have put on the welfare of the chap-ters is shown by the fine results that they have o btained.

It makes me very happy to report that each one of my seven chapters has contributed to the Settlement School, the Loan Fund. and the Endowment Fund

With Convention coming this June, I know the officers who visit the chapters next year will find them with an enthusiasm that can o nly be ,ltained from those benefiting by the inspiration of Convention.

I t is with regret that 1 end my three years' work with Lambda Province I wish to express to Grand Council my appreciation for their assistance and guidance; to the chapters for their fine coopera tion; and to the Pi Beta Phi Fraternity for the privilege of serving as Lambda Province Pres ident.

Respectfully submitted,

MU PROVINCE PRESIDENT

URlNG the las t year the work with the chapters in Mu Province has been a delightful experience which has given the province president a new insight into the scope of our great or.'l:aniution and a deepa love and appreciation for its accomplishments.

The majority o f the chapter visits were made early in the fall which made the correspondence, which followed. a more personal matter The province president was impressed with the able manner with whi ch the officers of the chapters carried out the duties and the policies required by the o rganization Graciow hospitality was extended by all chapte.r.s and the earnest desire to cooperate

with national and pro..-ince were plainly evidmt.

Scholarship in the province has imrroved during the yeu. It is Dot possible to boast 0 any Phi Beta Kappas, but in most cases the average of various groups has been raised. The greatest improvement is shown in the California d chapter. This is due to the hard work of their chapter scholarship who held weeki, meetings and conferencs with girls deficient in their standing. The improvement in California B and Utah A is also pronounad.

AJI the chapters in this province own their own houses and are in a splendid financial position. California A is enjoying the addition which was built last summer and it adds so much to the comfort and enjoyment of the girls. California r and 4 were able to do considerable redecorating and refurnishing which makes their houses morc attractive. Utah A is talking of an addition to their house and this is badly needed as they have such a large chapter. Arizona A had more house girls than they could accommodate and were forced to lease a s«ond house to take care of the overflow. Nevada A is well taken care of with the lovely house the alumnae financed for them.

At each university the dean of women gave splendid reports concerning Pi Beta Phi and expressed appreciation for the cooperation and school loyalty shown by the chapters.

The housemothers in this province are channing women who are most loyal to the Fraternity. At California r, Mrs. Arthur has just completed her twentieth year. The chaperon at California A. Mrs. Gardner, has also served faithfully for a good many years. She was illft the time of the province president's visit to that chapter and much to her

it was impossible for them to meet. Mrs. Kingsbury at Arizona is just completing her fourth year while ltirs. Scheid. at Utah. her second. Mrs. Preston at Nevada A, Miss Englisb at California B, and Mrs. Marbury at Californja 4 have beftl with the chapters but one year.

The majority of the chapters in this province need no urging to enter activities as is evidenced by the many outstanding honors won by the girls. The offices are so numerous that only the most noteworthy can be mentioned such as vice-president of Associated Student Body; president, Cap and Gown; president of Phrateres; two Mortar Board members: two Phi Kappa Phis; two presidents of Associated Women Students; one vice-president of Asssociated Women Students; four members of Amazon; three members of Ace of Clubs; president, DeJta Chi Alpha; junior prom queen; and business manager of a yearbook.

This report would not be complete without a word of appreciation for the splendid help given the province president by the advisory boards. These women have worked diligently and given a great deal of time and interest to their work. A. great deal of the credit for the success and improvement of the chapters should be given these women.

Mu Provin ce President wishes to take this opportunity to thank the chapters for the many courtesies shown her her visits and for the cooperation given by both the chapter and the alumnr. To Miss Onken and Mrs. Smith she expresses her gratitude for the help they have so generously given her in solving some of the problems of the year.

Annual Reports of Province Vice-Presidents

ALPHA PROVINCE VICE-PRESIDENT

THE SEASON of 193' -36 has been a most interesting one in Alpha Province Convention year is always a bwy ODe for alumnae clubs and this has been particularly so, due to the appointment of • National Committee for Alumnr Reorganjza· tion. Many of the Alpha Province clubs sent in suggtstio m; to Mrs. Phelan, the chairman. However, they felt the need of discussion over the changes which they thought necessary to the C'Xisting constitution, and that demand resulted in a Province Conference on April 16, 17. and 18, with the Toronto Club aJ hostesses Delegates were present from London, Ontario, from Buffalo, Syra. cuse, New York and York and the Cleveland Club in Beta Province was represented by their president Mrs. Kingsley. Resulting from the conference, several suggestions in tbe fo rm of moti o ns for amendment to both the active and alumnz constitutions were drawn up and sent to all of Grand Council. to all province vice-presidents and to the clubs in Alpha Province which did not send delegates to the conference

Many of the clubs are sending delegates to Convention.

In December, I visited the London Club and atttnded the Ontario B initiation and the banquet whi ch followed In February, I visited clubs in Boston, where J was a guest at the Massachusetts A. initiation banquet, in Westchester, Syracuse, Rochester and Buffalo, New York. J also met with

Othe executive committee of the New York City Club and was their guest at the monthly Panhe!. lenic dinner at Beekman T o wer I also met with a of Montrfil Pi Phis and ho pe to sec a cl ub there when there are tfl o ugh resident members.

Alpha Province has added two new clubs to her list this year, at Albany, New York, and at Portland, Maine, and Halifax alumnz have organized and will, I hope, be a chartered club before nat fall.

AIl of the clubs are their various problems to the best of their ability and their executives have spared no effort to maintain the interest o f their members in the Fraternity and its projects. Many help their active chapters in a very substantial way. All but three supported Settlement School, six sent contributions to the loan Fund , and seven co ntributed to the Endowment Fund Of the active chapters, seven gave to Settlement School , six to the loan Fund , and two to the Endowment Fund .

I am very grateful to the clubs in Alpha Province for their helpful cooperation with me in my efforts to serve them as their vice president and I appreciate their friendship and their loyalty and ho pe that J have ful611ed the purpose of my office which is that of a contact between the clubs and their Fraternity

Respectfully submitted.

BETA PROVINCE VICE-PRESIDENT

F THE twenty dubs in Beta Province. I have visited nindern durinA the two years I have been in office. five of them this year Most of them are well organized and are functioning satisfactorily. This year, extreme cold, almost unprecedented snow. ice, floods-more than one Pi Phi family has been literally driven from home by raging rivers-have conspired to keep down attenda n ce and activities of many clubs; dances have been canceled because roads were impassable Following the havoc wrought by Roods, calls for relief, immediate and imperative, have in many districts lessened financial gifts to fraternity projects yet interest has oot flagged. and the clubs are planning

Snext year's work enthusiastically. Correspondence with clubs has been interesting and invaluable; letters from Miss Onken, Mrs. Smith, and Mrs. Wild have frequently heen real godsends, for 1 have my discouraged moments; and it has been a satisfaction indeed to know that all of Grand Council, Mrs. Purdunn, and all those with whom I have official correspondtnce, were standing by, ready with aid when I should ask for it.

A Pi Phi need not work alone! I am most appreciative of having been given the privilege of servi ng my Fraternity as Beta Province Vice-President.

In Gamma Province there are 1,084 resident Pi Phis and only 171 paying national dues, a few of the latter too far removed from the nearest alumnz clubs to belong to them, Pour dubs had specia1 Founders' nay celebra-

tions. The Baltimore Club held their banquet with Maryland A on April 23. Th e Washington, D.C., Club held its banquet April 28 with a very interesting program i ncl uding "Pi Phi Remembrances" by Emilie Margaret White. In North Carolina the two active chapters joined with the alumnz from both Durham and Hill in celebrating the occasion. Every a lumna in the state was invi ted and thus their interest in Pi Phi was increased In Richmond a delightful banquet was held on Wednesday, April 29. a t the most fashiooable dub in the city, and the occasion was made more memo-

cable by an informal talk by Dr. Mary Harris . Dr . Harri s had been the ituest that day at the literary luncheon of the Woman's Club of Richmond.

As to the clubs have foll owed different plans. Both Wuhington and Richmond have had the idea of some afternoon and some evening meet· ings and separating the business and social meet· ings. ] t has worked so well that the Ri chmond Club intends the same plan again next year, as Washington has done for so me time. [0 Baltim o re the program for one interesting meeting was given by men relatives of club members. The bridge benefit with style show staged by Woodward and Lothrop. sponsored by the WashinAton Club, was very successful socially and financially Three clubs will have delegates at Convention this June.

The dubs have contributed a total of $390 to the Settlement School. Four dubs made contribu-

tions to the Endowment Fund; three to the Loan Pund; and two aid to active chapters located in the same city. Our active chapters have the splendid record of having contributed 100 per cent to all fund s. Thi s is most encouraging for the future, since actives such a sense of loyalty to the Fraternity, will most probably develop into loyal alumna: and be a great help in the alumnz dubs with which they will certainly affiliate. I have enjoyed my short term of office with Gamma Province very much, and wish to express appreciation of the privilefe of knowing our na· tional officers better and 0 again serving the Frattmity that was so dear to me through college days. I hope that my successor will enjoy the wo rk as much as I have.

DELTA PROVINCE VICE-PRESIDENT

A GAIN the vice-president of Province feels r1. very proud of the dubs and chapters in her provi nce I n almost every respect there has been a gain of some kind in every club. A wonderful spirit of cooperation and helpfulness is evident everywhere.

Two new clubs were added to our happ y family. Southwestern M ichigan organized with Pi Pbis joining from Battle Marshall, Albion, and Kalamazoo. Gary, Indiana, also joined our ranks just before Convention. Ont inactive dub became active again this year so Delta Provin ce can now claim sixteen enthusiastic dubs

For the third year, Delta Province is 100 per cent in contributions from both clubs and chapters to the various funds. The Settlement School, Endowment and Loan Funds, and Magazine Agency all show increases in the contributions sent from De lta Province

Membership in the clubs shows a province total of eighty-four more than last year. Three dubs are 100 per cent in membership-Fort Wayne, Flint and Calumet Regional.

The grading system which has been carried on in ou r provi nce has been continued. The prize award. a beautiful gavel, was awarded to Ann Arbor. Michigan , Club this year. This club not

Fonly d oub led their membership but sold more Arrow Craft goods than any dub in the province , was first with all reports, prompt with monthly correspondence and showed a splendid spirit of coope ration in other ways. Several other clubs came within "inches" of winning

Several clubs have had the pleasure of visits from Grand Council members These clubs are fortunate indeed to have had this contact and it is hoped that every club may have such a privilege nat year.

Each club has received each month a club letter in which the province vice-president has tried to include interesting news from the Settlement School, other clubs, and national officers, aids in forming programs, and in making money. Correspondence with individual officers was also a pleasure.

It has been a pleasure to work with groups so interested, grateful , and cooperative as those of Delta Province . The friendships gained among clubs and n ational officers will always be cherished as delightful memories I am grateful to those who have helped me and borne my shortcomings. I shall be indebted forever for the opportunity to have served as Delta Province Vice-President.

EPSILON PROVINCE VICE-PRESIDENT

OR THE s«ond consecutive year, every club in Epsilon Province has contributal to the three projects of Pi Beta Phi , the SHtiement School, the Undergraduate Loan Fund, and the Endowment Fund. It is with pardonable pride that this officer submits this statement as an indication and evi· dence of the spirit and interest shown by the ten dubs of the province.

The total amount of donations to the Settlement School is smaller than it has been in the past, owing to the fact that the two largest dubs wert DOt able to make their customary large gifts. However, thrtt dubs. Memphis , Nashville, and Qat· tanooga increased the amount of their gifts this year. Epsilon Province gave more to the Loan and Endowment Funds than it did last year.

No rtport of the commissions earned on maga· zines can be made until the director of the agency makes her report. Realizing the possibilities are for making money foe the Settlement School in this way aU but one club bas bttD very active with magazines this year.

The Iftl rroblem in Epsilon Province continues to be that 0 membership There are too many Pi Phis living in towns where there are clubs who are not members of these clubs. Almost all of the dubs are making a sincere effort through varial programs to interest these alumnI! in part icipating in the activities of a Pi Beta Phi Alumnz Club Four dubs did mue gains in membership this year, and two others have the same number of active members as last year.

Epsilon Province is particularly happy to wel· come a new club this ,.esc-the Little Pigeon Alumnz with its seventeen memMr5. cleven of whom live in Gatlinburg. This club sbould be • to all the others. for its members have work.ed hard U1d enthusiastically for all Pi Phi projects. Of course their interest in the Settlement School should and does come first with them.

The Epsilon Province Vice·Preside nt wishes to thank the active chapters in the province for their coOperation and willingness to support the Settlement School, the Undergraduate Loan Fund, and the Endowment Fund . All five contributed generously to these projects, and one chapter, Missouri A, this year increasro the amount to all three .

The maptus paid senior dues (or thirty-truet' girls. In spIte of the fact that Epsilon Province failed to send as much money to the Settlement School as it is accustomed to salding, the Province VicePresident that progress has been made this year. Many dubs laid the foundations for increased growth ntxt ye.r. Sometimes results do not show in one year. It has • joy to serve as Epsilon Province Vice -President. The fine way in which the dubs have coOper.ted has made the work of this office a real pleasure instead of a task. The help given by Grand Council and Mrs Wild has been of inestimable value both to this office and to the clubs KATHARINE KIBLER LYONS

ZETA PROVINCE VICE-PRESIDENT

M y prRST year as :uta P rovi nce Vice-President has been a most insp iring one. I have aJways been very proud of the privilege of being a II /flo, but after this year I feel an even keener love and loyaJry for the Fraternity.

It was very fortunate for me that this was the for the province vice-president to visit the clubs. I have never before been treated so royally. and I feel that I have made life long friends.

From all of the dubs I have had splendid cooperation. There has been considerable increase in contributi ons received this year over last year, which is most gratifying. More articles from the Settlement School than ever !xfore have been sold. lakeland is to be especiaJly congratulated on their

ETA

large contribution of $123.2' to the Magazine Fund.

A new alumn.e club was chartered at Daytona Beach, Florida. Five other dubs have shown an increase in mem!xrship. The Atlanta Club is very proud of having had as a member for many years F. M Robinson, who was an I.C at Iowa B.

The dubs in Florida were disappointed not to have a state co nventi on this year as planned, but they hope to have one next year.

The contacts made both personally and through correspondence have been most and I consider it a great privilege to serve n B 4t.

WINIFRED S PAJGE

PROVINCE VICE-PRESIDENT

A LTHOUGH Eta Province Vice·President has been in office but three and a half months, she has already visioned the magnitude and the scope of the national work o( II B • as she had not previously done, and she has a great appreciation of the privileges and opportunities which she enjoys and the which she has derived from her small participati on in the work of the Fraternity. Because of the brevity of her tenure of office, she submits her annual report wi th some misgivings. since it must cover the work of the entire year I n spite of the interruption of the work caused by changing vice·presidents, Eta Province seems to have (orged ahead, and come through with a yea r of fine achievement. Many dubs have increased their membership. and also their donatio ns over last year. Monmouth Alumn.e Club is 100 per cent io mem!xrship thjs year, including several isolated and nearby P i Phis in its roll of members; while D ecatur. Chicap:o West Suburban. and Milwaukee have in creased their paid memberships to a mark ed degree. Alth oug h it was our goa l to ha ve a ll clubs 100 per cent in donations to national projects, we have fallen short of the mark; however. all but four of the twenty clubs in the province are 100 per cent in contributions to the three p rojects of IT B • . To on e club in particular should laurels go. Chicago North dub, (or. with only twenty·five paid members. it contributed $3S0.OO to the Settlement School, and increased its magazine subscription sales to $103.70 Menti on should be made of those clubs which had success with Arrow Craft sales and displays : Champaign-Urbana, with

forty ·six members, sold $330.00; M adison. with thirty members, sold $262.17; Chicago West Suburban, with thirty·seven mem!xrs. sold $206.' 1 ; and Du Page with only twelve members. sold $04 .'9. T otal sales of Arro w Craft products increased in the provin ce from $1,037040 last year to $1,460.8S this year Magazine subscriptions. gross sales. increased from $208040 to $3no4' this year. Du Page, in addition to its regular do n ations. sent a Christmas box to the Settlement School; Decatur, Galesburg, Milwaukee and Oak Park-Rive r Forest gave to local causes or charities; and a number of clubs in towns with or near chapters gave those active chapters gifts, and aided them with food. and flowers for rushing.

Although we have had a slight decrease in sen ior dues fr om active chapters. these same chap· ters are all 100 per cent in do n ations to the three national projects. Ill inois Z tops the list with its do n atio n s of $100.00 to Settlement School, $2S.00 to the Undergraduate Loan Fund. and $'0 .00 t o the Endowment Fund

Eta Province had an experimental conference th is year at H insda le and Western Springs , Illin ois, Apr il 24-2', sponsored by Chicago West Suburban AJumn.e Club. which dub was. also. hostess to delegates who attended. Thirteen of the twenty dubs in the province were represented by delegates, and many other club members were entertained The conference was most fortunate in that it had two national officers present: Miss Onken as guest o( honor, and Miss Webster, Province President , to correlate the work of active chapters. since

this was an alumnz conference . J believe that it was the unanimous opinion of delegates that the conferOlce was a great success in that it stimulated effort and created enthusiasm, besides cceating an opportunity for sectional contact between clubs and members.

As Eta Province Vice-President, I have appreciated the fine cooperation which I have had from officers of clubs; I have read their letters with great

Tpleasure. It is with the cordial, friendly help of these officers, and with the generous consideration, and timelv advice of Miss Onken, Mrs Smith, Mrs Wild, Mrs. D engel, former Province Vice-President. and other national officers and committee chairman that Eta Province Vice-President has completed the year.

HAZEL M MURK LAND

THETA PROVINCE VICE-PRESIDENT

I -lETA PROVINCE is very proud of the report which it is able to make this biennium. Our dubs are 100 per cent for both years in philanthropic gifts, we have an annual increase in membership. we show an annual increase in gifts to each national project, and we report the organization of a new dub.

Theta Province is forming the habit of being on the honor roll when it comes to gifts to the national projects. We not only each give to each project, but the annual total is Jarger each year, which shows the presence of a good national spirit in Ollr states. In 1935 we gained eleven members and in 19 36, forty -nine members, making a total gain of sixty paid members for the biennium.

Duluth, Minnesota has the honor of being o ur 100 per ccnt membership dub this year, whjle Sioux City, Iowa, that honor last year. Minneapolis the gain in members, having an increase of for this past year. Win· nipeg shows an increase of nineteen for 1936. ]n 193' Indianola, I owa, gained nineteen members .

Our new dub was organized in Council Bluffs, Iowa, in the faU by twenty·four Pi Phis who had been members of the Omaha group but who felt that they could do brtter work for the in a sma ller dub. They are an enthusiastic group of young women, almost 100 in membership for twenty.four out of the twenty.eight Pi Phis in the city are active in this group.

We have visited all the dubs in the province dueing this biennium: St. Paul, Minneapolis, Duluth, Grand Forks, Des Moines, Ames and Ind ianola in 193' and M ount Pleasant, Burlington, I owa City, Cedar Rapids, Sioux City, and Council Bluffs in 1936.

We also had luncheon with the Davenport , Moline. and Rock I sland Pi Phis one day in November and had hoped that this group would be an organized dub before Convention. There are about

Ttwenty Pi Phis in the Tri-Cities who have been meeting for socia l affairs for about two years. This group rer.resents many different chapters, are most co ngenia , and we covet their interest and help for the national fraternity. Ottumwa , Mason City, and Waterloo, all in Iowa, should also have chartered clubs. Our active chapters are asking for the cooperation of organized groups in these cities.

We had the pleasure of celebrating Founders' Day with Ames and Iowa r, later with the Des Moines Pi Phis when some members of the Ames and Indi anola clubs were present, and early in May with the Council Bluffs Club. These occasions are a needed source of inspiration and the contacts which these visits bnng are factor for national officers.

Our monthly correspondence with each of our fourtem clubs gives us that dose touch which an officer needs if she is to be of any value to her groups.

•

We have found that several clubs have sue· cessfully adopted the plan of having a short program at each meeting. in many cases using an outside speaker who brings something of current interest.

Next year we hope to have a Provin ce Day held jointly with our chapters, as we feel that this would be of unlimited value to the work which we are trying to accomplish.

We are disappointed that the chapters could not be on the honor roll this year. Failme in five cases to send gifts to the philanthropies is responsible for this. We have found the chapters improving in their response to the requirement for the payment of senior dues. Our official contacts are a great pleasure and a matter of personal grati6cation. We express appreciation to all whose cooperation and courtesies have made the year's work a joy.

LAURA STORMS KNAPP

IOTA PROVINCE VICE-PRESIDENT

H ERE IS an o ld German rhyme which. trans · lated, cuns something Jike this :

··Winter farewell. Partings are sad things. But at parting with thee. my heart with laughter sings."

With a slightly diHerent interpretation, the above quotation might apply to the close of a club yeat. There is regret, tinged with sadness perhaps, over the breaking up of dose companionships formed in the working out of common interests; yet there is happiness and satisfaction in the reali· zation of a dream fulfilled or a purpose accomplished.

Iota Province Vice ·President feels that this has

been a year of improvement in many respects. There has been a slight gain in membership in spite of the fact that the number of resident alumnz has decreased in six towns in which dubs are located. The number of 100 per cent dubs has increased to three They are: Cheyenne, Colorado Springs, and Manhattan. Twelve of the fourteen dubs sup.. ported aU n B 41 activities, and aU dubs. in some way, contributed to the support of the active chapters, thus revealing a growIng national consciousness among all the dubs. a closer bond of friendship within the clubs themselves and between the clubs and chapters.

That there is a keener interest in, and a deeper consciousness of responsibility for the Settlement

School is evidenced by the fact that there was an increase in the total amount contributed to the school and that four clubs-Colocado Springs, Denvet, Lawrence, and their gilts. With ODe exception••11 the dubs in the province took some part in the handling of the keow Cralt products. was a commendable incrnse in the amount contributed to the Undergraduate Loan Fund and the Endowment. The clubs are coming more and more to .pptwate the value of the Magazine Agency and ace mriching the School treuury with ever-increasing funds derived from that source.

The chapters continue their loyal support of the n B projects with generous conUibutions and, on the whole. have been more punctual io sending their senior ducs. Iota Province Vice-President wishes at this time to th,m1c them for the hospitality they have extended to her whmever she has visited at their chapter houses and for the unfailing courtay they have shown at all tima

The correspondence with the clubs has b«n a very pleasant and vaJuable experience and through it the Province vice-president has been able to keep informed upon the activities of the clubs, and has been able to pass on to them , in tum, news concerning national project.s and policies.

Four clubs were visited by the province vice ·

Ipresident in 1934-3' and five clubs during the past year. She wishes to express to all her appreciation of their hospitality. It is indeed a rare privilege to be entertained in homes that so definjtely opens a cultunl and educational background of the highest type. In and through such homes as these lies tM Fratemjty's bot hope of maintaining and developin.lt those fine qualities of moral inteArity and prinoples of Christian ethics handed down from its Founders

In closing, I ota Province Vice-President wishes to express to the members of Grand Council her appreciation of the help they have given her whenever she has sought their counselor advice. Their comprehensive understanding o f tM ideals and aims of the Fraternity make them ever generous and sympathetic in their estimate of othttlli. Their friendship is to be cherished and their opinions because they have, through years of fine Jiving and intelligent thinking, won the good opinion of all who come in contact with them. It is an inspiration to work with women such as they, whose loyal devotion to DB. Iw -done much to make it a fraternity that is respected and admired by those who seek the True , the Beauti· ful , and the Good

HAlUB ColUNS

KAPPA PROVINCE VICE-PRESIDENT

T IS with extra special pride that I, as Kappa Province Vice-President, give my report for this year. The first point of interest to announce is that there are now twenty-one clubs in Kappa Provo ince, which makes it the largest province in number of clubs in the alumnae department. The in the entire province has increased this year due to the reaction of the province conclave which was held in Shreveport last summer. A splendid representation was present for the twoday meeting, and with Mes. Smith and Miss Scivally both present, I am sure those alumnr who were fortunate enough to hear them speak 00 the problems of alumnr clubs, received much inspiration and help from the valuable suggestions that were offered. Ten clubs were represented and all of the active chapters sent several represeota· The meeting was most enjoyable and every one left with helpful suggestions for her dub.

Every club has been contacted monthly by letters carrying news and every suggation that will be a help to the dubs in functioning in a more satisfactory manner. There have been many followup letters , presenting the different phases of the Fraternity'S work, and encouragement has bten offered to those dubs who are new and not thorou.'1:hly familiar with the routine of the alum· nz worle.

When the work in the province has been analyzed, it is found that the dubs have been actively at work; increasing the membership and striving to do their part by the Settlement School, Endowment, and Loan Funds. The membership in the dubs has , in many instances , increased, and many of the groups have increased their contributions over last year . The membership of the province is '24, just twenty·nine more than last year. The Okmulgee Oub is 100 per cent in membership as well as in contributions. This has been a 100 per cent group for several years The Corpus

Christi Club is another 100 per cent dub in membership I have looked forward to a 100 per cent province, but even jf all could not make it, the chart will show that about fifteen are 100 per cent in contributions to the national r.roiects Those in this .'troup are : Austin, Fayettevil e, Dallas, Fort Smith, Houston, Little Rock, Muskogee, New Otleans, Okmulgee, Oklahoma City, Sabine District, San Antonio, Shreveport, Stillwater, and Tulsa. The active chapters ate 100 per cent in donations to the Settlement School: Oklahoma A and Texas A sending $50 each. The total is approximately $902.)9.

All but four clubs have remembered the Endowment Fund, Sabine District sending $2'. Texas A steps out in front again with a $'0 contribution . The toan Fund has received some attention from the hands of nearly all of the clubs and all but one of the active chapters. This is such a worth-while project; it should be considered more seriously when budgets are being made.

The New Orleans Club had the rare privilege of having the entire Grand Council for a visit in December The Council was in Gulfport, Mississippi, for National Pan hellenic Congress and came to New Orleans and to Baton Rouge for a visit, to inspect the state university and the local group on that campus. The visit with the Grand Council was very helpful and the value of these contacts is priceless

There were other clubs in the province which received visits from some member of Grand Council; Mrs. Alford visited Austin, Houston, San Antonio, Dallas , and Sabine District; Mrs. Smith was a visitor to San Antonio; and Mrs . Stark was in Dallas for a visit. 10m . Smith paid visits to Norman, Oklahoma Gty, and Port Worth clubs: last spring. so, all told the province has had its share of Grand Council visits for one year.

As the year closes it brings to an end four of

the happiest years that I have had . It has been filled with the joys and pleasures of working with a splendid group of women Their interest and coOperation has made it indeed a wonderful experlence---one I shall not forget very soon. My work as province vice-president could not have been as mjoyable and as successful at it has been,

Ihad it oo t been for the unto ld help and constant readiness to assist of the Grand Council in its entirety and the different committee chairmen It has been a rich experien ce serving n 41 and kn o wing her leaders, and 1 am truly grateful for this privilege.

CARRIE WILUAMSON

LAMBDA PROVINCE VICE-PRESIDENT

T WAS especially fortunate tha t my first year as province vice-president was the year for club the acquaintance with the personnel of the province and an undecstandin,l!; of the different club conditions, problems, and accomplishments has bem of greatest value. I am assured that these perso nal contacts are mutually beneficial, and the work tween the province vice· president and the dub officers and members has been that of the happiest cooperation and friendliness.

Surely no province could have more wonderful Pi Phis than we have here in the Northwest; they are national-minded, and realizing their importance in the national organization and their obligation toward it. are giving generously of their time and enthusiasm in carrying out the programs of (he Fraternity. Each club is actively interested in one or more chapters and their achievements in this direction are far-reaching and creditable.

My visits included ten of the twelve clubs Edmonton Club had the pleasure of a visit with the Grand Vice-President. Ruth Barrett Smith, and Lambda Province President. Lillian MacLeod Rusch. visited Edmonton and Calgary clubs; it is hoped that I may meet with these Alberta Clubs eady in the fall.

All alumme clubs and all active chapters contributing to the Loan, Endowment and Settlement School Funds. Eight dubs have had successful Arrow Craft sales. and there is an increasing interest in the Settlement School. All dubs are planning Ar row Craft sales next year as well as a more constructive program for raising funds for this worthy cause.

Four clubs, Corvallis. Edmonton, Eugene , and Seattle. have active chapters located in the same towns; in each case close affiliation and under· standing erists; and these alumna: clubs are of immeasurable value to the chapter.

Sincere effort has been made by the clubs to interest all resident Pi Phis and the membership has been increased in seven of the clubs. Last year Lambda Province reported 290 paid members-<>f these 275 were in dubs and fifteen were isolated this year there are 336 paid members291 in dubs and forty·five paid members of the national alumna: department. Spokane has the largest gain in new members, whjle Seattle has the largest paid membership; Corvallis increased

Iher members hip of eight last year to thirteen this year. Wenatchee, with a paid membership of twelve, and Corvallis are two of the small clubs of the province but are 100 per cent paid membership and contributions to all funds.

Perfect response has come from all active chapters in sending in senior dues for the national alumnr department; many of these outgoing seniors will be located in towns where there are dubs where they will receive a very warm welcome next fall. Fifty-two seniors will be graduated this June from our seven chapters.

Lambda Province has the signal honor of hav · ing as an active member of one of its clubs, our beloved Founder Jnez Smith Soule; Tacoma is the fortunate club. but Seattle and Washington A chapter also have the privilege of knowing her intimately, and Founders' Day each year is made more real and impressive by her presence as guest of ho nor at the celebration held by the three groups. Mrs. Soule is truly a living example of the ideals upon which our Fraternity was founded, and for· tunate indeed, are those Pi Phis who live near her and are constantly inspired by her beautiful character and personality and her loyalty and devotion to Pi Beta Phi! She is YOllng and interesting at the age of nearly ninety years . Perhaps the living of Pi Phi ideals is the "Secret of Youth !"

Founders ' Day was celebrated by all clubs and chapters ; on this day the Nancy Black Wallace Club of Salem had the honor of sponsoring the memorial service and unveiling the bronze marker given by the fraternity for our Founder, Nancy Black Wallace; the ceremony was most inspiring and impressive and was attended by members of Mrs. Wallace's family and alumna: and actives from Oregon clubs and chapters

As a province officer this year, it has been an added joy in my fraternity life to have had the privilege of greater service to Pi Beta Phi, and it is with sincere appreciation that I think of the generow assistance given me by national and club officers and the splendid cooperation and hospitality of province Pi Phis. May I at this time thank you for your courteousness and help thro ughout the year?

Respectfully submitted,

SUE FLETCHER

MU PROVINCE VICE-PRESIDENT

T IS with great pride that I bring to a close the alumnz club activity of Mu Province for the year of 1936. It has been outstanding in the case of each alurnnr dub, and has been marked with improvement and achievement in all departments of fraternity functioning.

There is an increase of around forty members , and '-'though that is not as large as it sho uld be,

it is a start fo r the future. Mu Province has many isolated Pi Phis . There is a paid membersh i p of 641 out of a resident alumnr of around 2,500 The past year has fo und the clubs of the province very conscious of the fact, and with their cOOperation in the future, it is hoped that we can contact many loyal Pi Phis who have not been reached in the past.

I am most proud to fq)Ort that the dubs o f tM province ace 100 per cent in donations to the Loan Fund, tM Endowment FUnd. and the Settlement School. The Los AnAeles Cub, with the aid of California r and California .1., gave a Sdtlement School tea and raised between them '\ ,300.00. The one cbcdc from the Los Angeles Oub is the largot si ngle don.tion ever rueived f o r the Settlement School. J Wi5b to thank the membtrs of the duh and the effident officers for this splendid achievement.

I have been most grati6ed by the way the clubs and chapters have responded to the Endowment Fund In many cases the amount donated doubled Jast year's, and in many others it was a new item on the budget.

This year abo marked a happy experience in my life. I visited sixteen of the nineteen clubs in Mu Province. Each club stands out with its own personality, its own plcuures. aod its own probbut an, large and smaH, with the same true Pi Phi spirit- to work for the ultimate goaJ-the realization of the ideals of Pi Beta Phi. I wish to thank each dub for ill hospitality and for the

many pleasures they dorded me. They we:re: and are my inspiration to carry on fo r Pi Phi in no matter what capacity J 6nd myself.

I wish to thanJc the membr:rs of Grand Council and Marianne Wild for their line assistance. Their inspiring letters and aid at times of distress han helped me greatly. To Ann I mend my thanks for her splmdid cooperation in Mlping me with the active chapters of the provi nce.

To the club officers and committee members I also extend my thanks Without their assistance, the record of the province co uld not be attained.

All in all, it has a real pleasure to serve the Fratern ity as Mu Province Vice-President, and what progress has been made is due to the coCSperation of these splendid women who have given their time and enthwiasm to the achievement of the plans of the Fraternity.

To Mu Province as a whole I gratefully express my thanb for all you have given to Pi Beta Pbi. May it all be returned to you in the riches that ha"e been mine in this last year of contact with you.

ETHEL LUNSFORD FROST

CHAIRMAN SETTLEMENT SCHOOL COMMITIEE

Comm,miJ,

AT THE close of my four years' work as chairman .l"\.. of the Settlement School Committee, I am happy to make a report to the Fratelnity It is most gratifying to feel and to mow that this last year has been the best for the school during my tenn of office. The most feature of the ye:ar was the addition o f the third yea r to the high school. This fact increased the enrollment and the students, as well as the staff, took a keene:r interest in their work. I have written twice within the past/ear to the alumnz clubs and active chapters, an I tried to picture as best I could the activities of the school.

Mrs Eunice S. Weaver, Illinois Z, continues to serve as director She has endeared herself to the staff, to the children , and to the entire community. She is doing a splendid work for the Fraternity in the position she holds. She has created an atmosphere of charm and hospitality at the school for every one who comes--whether for a short visit, or to work for a year. Many o f the visiting alumnz and friends commend her for hee interest in their visits to the school. Unless one spends a while: at the teachers' cottage:, it is impossible to realize the great number who are interested in seeing the work Pi Phi is doing.

Mr. William King has completed five years as principal of the school. He has lived in the boys' dormitory and has meant much in training them. He has worked with the chi ldren in school and out; he has the coach for athletics, assisted by Ben Fleming . Our boys' basketball team has had a most successful season, and the girls' team, while not always victorious, was most cre:ditable to a school the size of ours. Two ex-students of our school, Stella Huff and Ben Fleming, were teachers in the high school. Their recent articles in the M ay Anow reflect their love foe the school and their appreciation of the: work Pi Phi has done f or the: mountain children The Smith-Hughes agriculture and home economics teachers have continued the vocational work which our school has

done f oe many years . The Pi Beta Phi chapter of Futur.e Parme:rs of Te:nnessee: has held its regu. lar mee:tmgs, and our boys have won various prizes in the county fairs Th e h o me economic girls have similar meetings and join the Future Farmers of Tennessee in their social gatherings. It was my pleasure to enjoy the January party and I have never seen a more entertaining group of children nor a party where every one had a better time.

The grammar school building was crowded again thIS year. Eleanor Brabson and Miriam Swann. two east Tennessee girls, were our primer and first and second grade teachers. They have been faithful to the school and the children for seven and five years , respectively The third, fourth, fifth, and sixth grades were .taup:ht by Pauline: Campbell, Orr:gon B, Mary LoUIse Durkee, Nevada A. and Rosemary M oore:head, Illin ois II. Thr:se Pi Phis came to us with great enthusiasm and were faithful in their work. It is always a joy to the committee: to know that our active chapter girls are thinlcinR of Due school and want to come there to work. in the classrooms is a delight and one at once that the teachers are eager to train the children and give them every opportunity to develop personality. as well as to teach them three R·s. This year I found many new songs bemg sung to our beloved Pi Phi tunes-these: new teachers had bwied themselves in writing new words and had them to the children for their Christmas and Thanksgiving programs. Both of these performances are to be commended-the audience acclaimed them the best the school has ever !l:iven. An outstanding feature in the grammar school was the work of the verse choi r , which was trainr:d by Rosemary Moorehead The: teachers have most vigilant in the homes of the absent children-the truant officer is not so helpful.

The Jennie Nichol H ealth Center continues its wonderful work in ministering to the physical nrr:ds o f the school and the community. Two nurses have served during the past year, Vi rginia Moore

left in December to assume a position with the State Health Department, and Mrs. Marjorie Chalmers of Gal esburg. Illinois, is her successor. She is already by the children as well as by all the famities in the ten-mile area she serves. This past year a small room in the high school building was 6tted up to be as a clinic for the children during the mornin,Q; recess. There was never a day that the nurse did not find children clamoring for a dressing to be put on a cut, for an aching tooth to be relieved, or for some other ailment to be doctored. The usual inoculations for typhoid, diphtheria, scarlet fever, and 50 forth were given. Denial clinics were held al the hospital and numbers of the children had tonsils and adenoids removed. The commu nit y in the vicinity of Gatlinburg has h«ome so populated that the work of our nurse is very strenuous.

Mrs. Mary Ella McDonald has completed another year of service as housemother. She has been director o f the dormitories as well as supervisor of the boarding department. Too much praise cannot be given her for her untiring work. A into her pantry in the late rail is proof enough of the hours she sptnds during the summer in preservinp: and cannin,lt the fruits and vegetables which come from our gardens and orchards. The children look to her as a mother and the staff are ever ready to partake of her tempting repasts

The Arrow Craft Shop has completed its tenth year of business, and I may also add that it has all years in the amount of sales. Mrs Ethel Snow, Iowa r. has been director for eighteen months , and to her goes much commendation. The weaving supervisor is Miss Winop:ene Redding , and she has added a number of beautiful new articles to our stock during the past year, Mi ss Redding came to the shop in the and has served m o re than haH of that time a.s weaving director. The building whkh was given to the Fraternity bv Mr Louis Voorhi es five years ago has been utilized this year by the weaving department. The looms are placed in the largest r oom in the buildinp: a nd here the classes for the eiJthth grade Airls are held , and the Wea vers ' Guild, wh ich is composed of the more than eighty women who weave for the s hop, holds its meeting. These weavers' meetings are well attended and are most prontab le to the women, as interesti ng programs are prepared by the weaving supervisor. Miss Redding has started a library for her women, and quite a large collection o f books and magazines is placed in her office. F o r the first time in its history the Arrow Craft Sh o p can claim adequate display and s torage space. Mrs . Geor):!:ie Duffield continues to be in charge of the shop in the M ountain View H otel. The newness of the Smoky Mountain National Park brings many visitors to Gatlinburg. Miss Pauline Requ arth, Illin ois R , has completed her nrst year as bookkeeper for the school. H er work has been most satisfactory and the committee as well as the staff are delighted that she has come to join our staff of workers.

During my term of office we have succeeded in reducing the $10 ,000 to a small amount, and before June 30 that debt will be wiped out completely. The debt to the Endowment Fund has also beol rt'duced $1,)00 during my rc!gime. The high school building and the teachers' cottage have been re-roofed; several buildings have had coats of paint; the floors in the teachers' cottage have been refinished; new living room furniture has also

been added there. Concrete flooring has been put in the barn, and Dew walks have been placed between the houses. An electric refrigerator has been put in; the furnace has been bought (or the girls' donnitory, and minor repairs have been made wherever necessary from year to year. The Woodcraft Shop has been remodeled to be used by the weaving department. A car-a Ford V-8has been bought for the uSC' of the staff. Th e Sugarland Teachers' Cottage was sold for $3,)00. and this money was applied to our mortgage. The outstanding in the li(e of the school was the changing from a two-year high school into a four·year high school. The third year has been added this year and the fourth will be added the following year This will make the third four-year high school in Sevier County. The prospects for an increased enrollment are very bright. The local orof P.T.A. has given much help to the lunch room which is now fostered by the school. There is also a local committee of 6ve members to assist Mrs. Weaver in local matters. The formation of the Little Alumnae Club in June, 1935, has also added nf'W life among the staff who are Pi Phis, and among Pi Phis in Knoxville and nearby towns

The continued support of the Settlement School presages the loyal interest o( the a lumnae clubs and active chapters. To Los Angeles arid Oeveland Alumnr Clubs go the blue ribbons for the largest donations. Los gave $1,0)0 and Cleveland $908. The following active chapters have contributed $ 100 each: Colorado A. California .6., Illinois Z, Fl orida n, and California r. On behalf of the Settlement School Committee I want to commend these dubs and chapters and I want to extend the deepest gratitude for the donations from every dub and chapter. We know they represent work. hard work, and hours of devoted service to the Fraternity. If you know the intimate workings of the school, you will feel well repaid for your efforts. as they are re.Bected in its accomplishments Thank you-and again I say you have not labored for naught. The Settlement School deserves the best efforts of every member of Pi Phi

It has been a joy to work with my committee this year, and each o f my (our years of service. T o me one of the ,qreatest joys of working for the Fraternity is the deepcninp: of friendships which we form in our work together. J shall have an abiding love (or every member of the committee from 1932 to 1936-shall J name them? Helen Tottle, Grace Post, Mary Frost, M ary Gibson, Charlotte Brown, Josephine McCieverty, and LiUian Holton. Each one has given generously of her time and has done her work well.

DIRECfOR OF THE SETTLEMENT SCHOOL

COmtRMnill

THE YEAR 1936 found Gatlinburg with anum· ber of changes. Since much of the government road construction in the Smoky Mountain National Park was completed, many government empJoyen and their families and the c.c.c. camp at Elkmont moved away.

The few mountain families still lingering in the Sugarlands' and upper Baskins were forced to move elsewhere by JanUiuy I, and finding other homes in or Gatlinburg was quite difficuJt in mid.winter.

The young mothers in the government-emp loyed families who were so helpful in P T A work for the past two years, with their interest in improving the school and their efforts in helping to furnish. funds for the noon lunches in the grade school, have been greatly missed.

A Business Men 's Association was organized for the purpose of improving living conditions and promoting the completion of the highway from Knoxville through Gatlinburg to the Park. R oad signs showing school zone and speed limit give us reason to hope for fewer accidents. A campaign has been on foot for the last six months to beautify the "Burg" and sanitary officers have been influencing the people to make improvements. The P W A. loan (or water-works was not approved. The organization of a private water company has been proposed , but has not yet materialized.

The Pi Beta Phi AJumnz Club which was organized a year ago with a membership of twenty extending from Gatlinburg to N or ris, and KnoxviJIe, has been and will continue to be a benefit to the school. The club celebrated Founders' Day with a dinner in the M o unta in View H otel. Ten different chapters were represented by the fifteen Pi Phis present, and three other pj Phis who happened to be stopping at the hotel came into the dining room before we had finished.

The amateur contest, sponsored by the alumnr club, will not soon be (orgotten by the people of the community_ Gatlinburg has splendid talent, and those who took advantaAe of the chance to perform afforded an evening of rich and rtee enter· tainment. There were twenty-five applicants, and but for the stormy night, I fear the auditorium would not have held the audience for there was scarcely standing room left . We hope to make this a yearly for it is not only good entertainment for the community but gives the talented ones a chance for expression.

Our school building and grounds have been open, as usual, to Old Timers' Day, harp singings, the farm women's organization, and the customary social events peculiar to our community

The influence of a full time minister at the little Baptist Church is felt in the community life and the whole place shows signs of progressive spirit.

In spite of the fact that Gatlinburg has grown and appears, along the highway, much more enterprising, the school's influen ce seems just as necessary and is as deeply appre<iated as ever.

School

We opened school on August 19 this year with a third year class added to our high school. This required an extra teacher. A former student of the Settlement School, Ben Fleming, who had just graduated from Tusculum CoJlege, was chosen for the position_ Both the school and the community soon realized the necessity for a four-year high school , and if we are fortunate enough to have seventy-.6ve students attending high school next year we are promised still another teacher for the fourth-year class by the County School Board_

Mr. King, our principal, put special emphasis on athletics this year. We thoroughly enjoyed the basketball season which was the most successful the school has ever had. Only one game was lost during the regular playing season and eighteen games were won. Our team went to the semifinals in the district tour.pament and one player was awarded a place on the all-tournament team For this occasion, nice looking sweaters were furnished the players by the business men interested in them. A girls' team was experimented with, playing a light schedule_

Measles and such snowstorms as have not been known in Gatlinburg for many years kept the attendance down in midwinter. Other mountain schools did close for two weeks. The total enrolment was 364 and sixty-five of these were high school students_

Our Christmas entertainment was, as usual, the principal function on our entertainment list. Checks and boxes of toys and clothing were received from clubs, chapters, and individuals to help in making this a wonderful experience for the children. During the year plays were given by the seventh and eighth grades and hiAh school classes. Even a beauty contest was held. A verse choir composed of twelve fifth and sixth grade children was a real novelty . In their little choir robes, led by their teacher, Rosemary Moorehead, the members recited many kinds of poems and were in great demand_

Our library has had good care. Two girls have received six dollars per week from the National Youth Administration fund for two hours' work each day spent in caring for the library

The grade school basement where the small children have their lunches at noon, has b«n freshly painted by the Parent-Teacher Association.

Our closing exercises, because of the additional high school class, were somewhat changed from the regular commencement activities, only the eighth grade pupils receiving diplomas. Judge Paine of Sevierville, an old friend of the school, delivered an excellent address_ The F.P_T_ boys presented their silver cup to the outstanding high schoo l girl and the Pi Beta Phi Alumnr Club awarded a cup to the outstanding boy.

The staff for 193'-36 was:

Eunice Weaver, llIinois Z, director. William King, principal. E. F Kite, vocational agriculture.

Gussie Smith, home economics-later Lula Lee

Carlock.

Stella Huff, English, history.

Ben Fleming, math, French.

Rosemary Moorehead, Illinois H, :Hh and 6th grades.

Mary Durkee, Nevada A, 4th and Sth grades.

Pauline Campbell, Oregon B, 3cd grade.

Miriam Swann, 1st and 2nd grades.

Eleanor Brabson, primer.

Winogene Redding, weaving supervisor

Ethel Snow, Iowa r, Arrow Craft Shop manager.

Georgia Duffield, hotel shop.

Pauline Requarth, Illinois H, bookkeeper.

Marjorie Chalmers, nurse.

Mary Ella McDonald, dormitory and house manager.

Lura Ownby, weaving assistant.

Veatress Parton, Arrow Craft Shop assistant.

Ambers Ogle, farm.

Arlie Watson, farm.

Bess McCarter, cook.

Dormito"

Contrary to the usual run of attendance in the dormitories there were twelve boys and eight girls. One-half the number of bays were third year high school students, as were three of the girls. Mrs. McDonald was, as usual, in charge. There has been a fine spirit of harmony and cooperation and the scholarship average of these students has been better than that of the school as a whole, some making straight A' s.

We ask five dolJars a month io cash, the balance of the thirteen and a half dollars for their room and board to be worked out. Some students, however--often the worthiest are oat able to pay even the five dollars , and for them plans are made for extra work during the summer months. The fact that they work to pay for the greater part of their way in school does not seem to interfere with their extracurricular activities. We have been truly proud of these students.

Mrs. McDonald lived in the dormitory with the girls; Mr. King and Mr. Kite stayed in Stuart CoIJege and the place had quite the air of a men's club, with all the boys living there, too. The boys and girls never seem to lack amusement, for when working hours are over sounds of music, old ballads sung with guitar accompaniment, can be heard very often Mrs. McDonald is a splendid task-master, for in encouraging good work, she always sees that a reasonable amount of recreation is allowed.

Due to our close family life, we become strongly attached to each other during the year, and sorry when school is over. It is a deep pleasure to the staff members to feel that we have had a part in the developing of their characters and personalities, and the boys and girls seem thoroughly appreciative of the advantages the dormitory life affords them.

H ome E(onomics

In the department of home economics, Miss Gussie Smith, a graduate of the University of Tennessee, held the position of teacher until Frbruary 1 S, when she was offered a position of Home Demonstration Agent for Jefferson County, Tennessee. The girls adored Gussie and showed great

interest in every phase of the work.

In her first year class which consisted of fourteen girls, beJtinning with home courtesies and personal grooming, the problems of clothing, foods, and planning and furnishing homes were taken up. This was followed by instruction for both classes by the nurse in child care and health of the family. The class of eleven sophomore girls took up canning and preserving, and later, clothing, ending with a fashion show at assembly for the whole school. Each girl had a tailor made dress. They planned, prepared, and served a dinner to the whole staff, the first year girls making favors and decorations. This was a wonderful occasion and showed originality.

In March Lula Lee Carlock of Knoxville took over the work and carried out the regular program for the rest of the year.

The home economics classroom is the busiest spot in the high school building. One is apt to find, outside of regular class hours, neighborhood women receiving instruction in dressmaking and other problems, costwnes being made for some coming entertainment or perhaps a County Demonstration A$ent explaining a new cooking gadget or at!emphng to interest the women in starting a waysJde market.

One of the greatest treats of the year for the girls is the trip to the University of Tennessee on Open House Day in the home economics building. The trip is made in the school truck and the greater part of the day spent in seeing the exhibit of the school of home economics and practice.

In addition to her regular classes, the home economics teacher must be actively interested in the P.T.A., giving menus for the noon lunches. Also she gives a day each week to helping the nurse in the hospital.

The school receives compensation from the state according to the number of hours she spends on adult work. Miss Smith accomplished 100 hours of outside wode. Several programs for entertainment were given by the Home Economics Oub for assembly.

Agriclllilire

Elmer Kite, graduate of the School of Agriculture, University of Tennessee, has been in charge of vocational agricultme the past year. His time has been divided between his classes in school, doctoring sick cows and horses in the community, answering inquiries along the line of crops and gardens, and conducting outside classes

As usual each boy had a project which was carried out at home or on the school farm. One day unit class of seventh and eighth grade boys was taught at Banner School in the fall to stimulate an interest in agriculture class work and induce them to come to school. Part time classes were taught in fall and spring, made up of boys of high school age who were not in school. These classes met one night each week.

Due to a dry fall and a severe winter, very little use could be made of winter pastures; consequently, more feed had to be bought than usual. The dairy herd was increased and milk production was good Livestock, farm, and shop work we re exhibited at the county fair , and six prizes were taken.

A livestock judging team was taken to the University of Tennessee and the boys made several field trips visiting the best dairy herds in the county.

For the first time we were in the p.P.T. speakjng cootest. Jimmie Hatcher won first place in the district contest-his subject "Soil Con-

He also entered the East Tmnessee contnt. and, although he did not win, he made a very good showing.

The Future Farmers' organization held their meetings twice a month having fifteen members. They gave one party and had two picnics . A minstrel show was given to obta in funds so that four dele$ates could be sent to the state F F T canvenuon at Nashville this spring.

Arrow C,.ajl

There is :l steady growth in A.rr01\' Craft. Alumnr clubs are in closer contact with it than with any other department of the school. Mrs Snow, the shop manager, reports that 119 clubs, fourteen shops, sixty-seven wdividua1s, and two active chapters handled Anow Craft products this yoc.

The branch shop in the Mountain View Hotel has been enlarged, making it possible for the manager, Mrs. Duffield , to display her stock to a better advantage.

There arose a netd in the Southern Handicraft Guild in which we hold membership, for an organization for promoting a larger market for its products. A corporation was formed in May, 1935, called the Southern Hi ghlanders, In c Membership is composed of schools, philanthropic institutions, groups, associations , and individuals who are producers of handicrafts. Two shops were established -<me at Norris Dam and one in the Rockefeller

Center in Nt:W York City. In these two places, as welJ IS at Allaostand in Asheville our articles are sold with those of the other handicwt centers, and it is hoped that the Smoky Mountain Park concession may also be obtained.

The weaving department is now installed. in a building of its own. This has made it possible to take care of more weavers, furnishes comfortable room for the weaving meetings, and room for the bulk of the Arrow Craft stock. Mr. Voorhies , who gave this buildin,lt to the school, is great1:r pleased that it is SO U5d'ul for the weaving, an he was helpful in putting it in order for that purpose

Gene Redding, the weaving supervisor and designer, has betn eight ycars with the schooL This has given her close acquaintance with more than onc gcneration of weavcrs. Three courses of weavinA lessons were given to the weavers during the year, and fifty-five took these lessons. The eighth grade girls attended a weaving class every afternoon from 1: 45 until 2:4:5 . Their last project of the year was making woolen material which they made into graduating dresses.

Among the woven articles sold in the shop. one of the most popular was the Smoky Mist scarf. The gay colored fans made nice fav ors for parties. Rccently at an A.A V.W. convention dinner in Knoxville, our fans were used as favors. A card attached to each fan said:

"Deep within the purple iris, Lies a heart of purest gold; So within our Smoky Mountains Countless beauties may unfold. Nature's treasures for the seeking For the traveller who sees.

On December 1, Virginia Moore, who had b«n with us for the past four years, gave up her [>0sition here to be Public Health in Clarksv ill e, Ten nessee. M arjorie Chalmers of Galesburg, Illinois, then took up her work

H er seven years of experience in family relief, child welfare, and kindergarten training, aside from her regular nursing have given her an ideal backAround for this position. Quoting from her report: "All sick or eme rgency calls have been answered either to aid the docto r, to give prescribed treatment, or to make sure that home care was properly understood . Schoo l inspections and inoculations were completed, pre-schoo l and chest clinics were held , and a great many follow -up calls were made We have tried to keep up all pre-natal and infant weHare work, for we realized the importa nce of a proper start in childhood.

" H ealth education has been carried on by classes in ana tomy and physiology, home hyg iene and care of the sick, by classroom health talks, by distributiog l iter ature. and by friendly visits at home or in the office.

" Many surgical and treatments have been given . hospital equipment loaned in time of need. trips with patients to Sevierville, Knoxville, or Maryville have been made when necessary. When this could not be paid for by the patient , the fund from the Friends of the Mountain Children was used.

"Each morning from 8 :3 0 to 9:30 and each Friday afternoon, the hospita l is open for dressings, weighi ng, in ocu lations, and advice. The fourth Saturday of each month continues to be a busy day for de ntal service."

dents in their homes, after having lived in the school, 3re responsible for much of this improvement.

The County Health Department Blue Ribbon Day is a great incentive for keeping well. Children try to outdo each in the matter of teelh , ton · sils, inoculations, keeping dean, so as to be able to go to Sevierville and march in the parade on Blue Ribbon Day We took first prize among the larger schools thu spring, having 178 blue ribbons.

Dr. Conroy. resident doctor, has taken a share of the responsibility from the shoulders of the nurse, especially in cases of pregnancy. The Health Center remains one of the most important phases of the business and service of th e school, a worthy accomplishment.

Olftce

The work has gone very smoothly and efficiently. Requarth, JIlinois H, D ecatur, lllin ois, has been the bookkeeper the past year. s)'stem of cost accounting started in 1934 in Arrow Craft has been continued, and has been no confusion in handling the accounts of the vari· ous departments . Keeping with i n the Arrow Craft and school budgets is the bookkeeper's foremost aim, and so far this year almost every account has been kept within its specified limits.

With the cooperation of the alumnr dmirmen of Settlement School and their committees, many old accou n ts on the Arrow Craft books been straightened out, and most of the accounts this year have been very successful.

To you--committee and Council, officers and loya l Pi Phi s-w e are truly grateful. Your constant, warm -hearted interest and thoughtfulness made it possible to continue this work of which we are so proud It is almost too much to express in words, but as onC! of our smallest boys said to the nurse, "We'uns couldn't hev it, ' thout you-all to holp."

REPORT OF THE NATIONAL PAN HELLENIC CONGRESS DELEGATE FOR PI BETA PHI

WHATEYER the past two years may ha ve meant for fraternities individually, they seem t o have meant f or fraternities as a who le a more h onest and open facing of facts and a greater willingness to work together for commo n goals. The meeting o f National Panhe lleni c Congress held las t D ecem. ber at Edgewater Park, Mississippi, had an atmosphere of friendliness and mutual confidence which had been marked ly missing from immediately preceding conference and which gives a renewed confidence in the abil ity of the f raternity system n ot only to continue but to become increas ingly st rong. Where two years before h ad been a ten seness which to emanate from fear that weaknesses would be discovered., th is past year there were frank admiss ion of weaknesses an d open desire f o r help in them. Some fr aternities are stronger than ever before, it is true. but some have met such serious loss of ability t o initiate that their future presents grave problems. While the delegate for Pi Beta Phi believes tha t each fra· ternity should accept responsibility for developing its own chapters rather than expect other fratemi · ties deliberately to weaken their own groups, not just temporarily but for the future in order to take care of unwisely placed or developed chapters of other fraternities, she could not be a believer in the value of fraternity membership without want· ing her own fraternity to give its best towards a right and sane and fair attem pt to make it possible for aU prescnt N P.C. to c ontinue to find a place 0 0 campuses. This pl ace will be assured, she believes . when womeoand perhaps most of all, members of the strongest fratemities-have a true appreciation for the thi ngs which all fraternities give to those who love and serve them, have enough o f the organi. zation, achievements, and personnel o f other frater. nit ies to know that every fraternity has much of which its members may be proud, admits to herself and to others that size and age are of themselves no sure indication of strength, and acts upon a be·

lief that choice and not competition should be the basis for placing chapters and for bidding girls. Much of the difficultv of the less well·established fraternities can probably be traced to the fact that they have preferred to establish themselves on campuses already too well filled and th at their chapte rs, so p laced, have believed that they must draw their members not from women students as a whole but from the mu ch sma ll er grou p o f women rushed by the better estab lis hed fraternities. T o ask for a quota system to limi t the n umbe r o f pledges which stroog groups may take when ap· prox imately sixty per cen t of the women students o n the campus are witho ut fraternity affilia tions of any kind and when each girl pledged to any fraternity had been r ushed by an average of five f raterniti es-these art actual statistics fo r campus, this year-seems to indicate that there, at l east, invitati ons to membership had bem given too l argely on the basis least wise for any group--<ompetition. It is probable that there is no chapter of any fra· temiry which has not, at some time, found that its strongest and most valuable member has been not the most sought·after "prize rushee" but a less well·known and less conspicuous rushee whose true worth became increasingly evident up· on acquaintance. May Pi Bela Phi 's representative call upon the members of this fraternity t o meet their responsibility not to love their own fraternity les!! o r to feel less keen I. pride in its strenAth and prestige but t o make that affection and pride basically sound because they are founded u pon a realization of the strength, true worth, and 6ne personnel o f other fraternities as as their own I The most emphasized problem of fraternities continues to be that of saving chapters which have become so weak that they are unable to attract enough members to insure their future. That this is a red problem is evident from the fact that during the two years the last two National Panhellenic Congresses, forty chapters were with· drawn and only thirty-one were installed by N.P.C.

The 9UOt8 system, which has been presented as a solution for this problem. is being in· creasingly forcrd upon college Pa.nbe.IJenics even though National PanheHmic CongcCS5 as such took DO stand whatever in cePId to the system but .ppactntly attempted to gain the same objective by issuing a statement that fraternity relations are possible only within certain de6nitelr stated numttical limits. In speaking .t National Panhellenic Congress on the statistics collected by the Committee on College Panbellenics. L. Pearle Green , Kappa Alpha Theta, chairman of the committet said: figures confirm the conclusion of the National Association of of Women at its Februarr 193' meeting: that the quota system has not attamed the hoped for end-an distribution of pledges ," She. went on to say that the commjttee next to the question as to whether the alleged reason (or adopting the quota system, which was the wide difference betw«n the number of pledges to groups, was a thing or only one brought into the limelight by the depression. The committee collected figures for six years--1929 to 1936. These figures were complete for many campUse5 and more than )0 per cent complete for over half the campuses, and showed that there was never a year o f the six when there was not a wide divergence in the number of girls pledged different fraternities on anyone campus. The committee also fou nd that there were seldom two consttutive years when the chapter of the same fraternity had either the largest or the smallest group of pledges. The dangers which Miss Green said the quota system had emphasized were:

"I. Willingness to alibi failure to secure pledges, to blame other/roups instead of carefully analyzing the rush an one's own mistakes, or facing !quaIdy the chapter's handicaps on that particular campus

2. Friction within chapter and with alumna:, because many quota systems lead to omission of legacies.

3. Weakening of prestige on campus for any group short the quota system on plo:lge day (even jf such shortness is by preference) .

4 Growth of anti fraternity sentiment among in· dependents, by the talle of mlbittered girls that the quota system prevented receiving invitations from the groups they desired to join.

, Strengthening the undemocratic charges against fraternities, because outstanding girls are not pledged; girls whom the community does not know preferred indepe1dence to joining any group quota restrictions gave them a chance to join."

Pi Beta Phi's delegate continues to urge the fraternity to stand against a system which discounts years of conscious effort to achieve results worthy of recognition in ability to attract the best type of college Sid, which is buicaJly unsound because it is unfair not only to well-established chapters but also to rushees, and which has httn proved

not to do the thing for which it was originall, promoted-make it possible for the weakest groups o n a campus to pledge enough and strong enough girls to enable them t o con t i nue , regardless of the wisdom used in placing the chapten on the campus o r in developing them after they had been estah-lished. Surely a wiser and more lastingly safe solution is the ooe of building up a finer spirit of interfraternity appreciation and friendliness and of getting away fr om the apparent goal of success in strictly competitive rushing_

This Convention , like those of other is being asked by Nati o nal PanheJlenic Congress to approve additions to the Standards of Ethi cal Conduct which will mean that fraternity women will go on record as believing that " Jt is beneath the standards of fratern ity women to approach any rushee who has signed a preference for a fraternity, other than the one which they represent, with a proposal to to accept the bid indicated and to wait for another bid" or '1"0 fail to observe during exchange visits as guests, the rules, regulation.s, and cu.stoms of the colleges, dormitories and cha pter houses , which they are visiting." TItese standards are only those of clean rushing and right living which Pi Beta Phi has long held before her own members; it should welcome the opportunity to take an open stand for them in its Panhellen.ic relations. The latter statement represents the 6rst stand taken by National Pan hellenic Congress in many years for fine standards of living : if it can be and is foll owed by other uni ted stands for the things which mean cha racter and so, rightly represent the ideals of fraternities, National Panhellenic Congress will become at last the power for good which it could and should be What no fraternity will accept will not be done by fraternity members!

During the interim of conventions, Pi Beta Phi's delegate has served first as a member of a special committee to make a survey of rushing costs and at present as a member of the Committee on City Panhellenics. She attended the twenty·fourth Na· tional Panhellenic Congress as official delegate and had the very great pleasure and gratineation of being able to present there all other members of Grand CounciL She believes that the increasingly common practice of fraternities to have all Council members present at National Panhellen.ic Congress means incrtaSed strength for the Congress, for colPanhellenics , and for each fraternity whose officers ue thus given an opportunity to lcnow other fraternities through personal contacts with their officers and who is able to be known through these same contacts with its own officers.

She has tried to make evident Pi Beta Phi's sin· cere desire to be a constructively contributing, co· operating and friendly fraternity.

REP ORT O F COMMITIEE ON E XTEN S ION

T

HE Committee on Extension presents the Pi Beta sroup of Louisiana State University for the consideration of convention. This group was organized by members of Pi Beta Phi and has the enthusiastic support of active and alumnz members of the Fraternity who know them. All province

and national officers who have visited the group are endorsing them Pi Beta is located in an institution which is considered so favorably by rival fratemi· ties who are aggressive in extension that Kappa Kappa Gamma recently chartered a group by colonizing. In presenting Pi Beta we offer a well

organized and carefully selected group which is a real 0rportunity to the Fraternity for a continuation 0 our constructive but conservative policy for expansion.

Since last convention we have had many in · quiries fr om interested groups representinf various sections of the country and many types 0 colleges and universities: Willamette University of Salem, Oregon; Lady of the Lake College of Texas; Washington College of Maryland; University of Toledo of Ohio; University of Vi rginia; San Diego State College of California; Baldwin-Wallace College of Ohio; Creighton University of Nebraska; Fl orida Southern College; Arkansas State College; and Lake Forest College of Illinois Because of the established policies of the Fraternity some of these groups had to be discouraJl:ed while others are being investigated moce carefully.

Alumna: who are interested and zealous in their eHorts to preserve and extend the re.:ognized leader. ship of Pi Beta Phi h ave communicated with the committee concerning the University of New Mex· ico, the University o f British Columbia, McGill University, University of Tennessee, University of Georgia, University of Akron of Ohi o, and the University of Alabama. After investigation the com· mittee has found some of these campuses over· crowded while others may have something to offer

Wus for future consideration

Since the Gamma Sigma group at Connecticut State College has been mentioned in previous re· ports perhaps we should suggest here that this committee awaits the academic recognition of the college, which is required by Pi Beta Phi.

To maintain Pi Beta Phi's outstanding prestige as the foremost woman 's fraternity a well balanced extension program seems advisable. Pi Beta Phi has adopted one of the most conservative policies of growth among rival fraternities . Only groups of outstanding merit and/or representing sections of the country where Pi Beta Phi has few chapters are bei ng considered. The Extension Committee be· speak! again your most earnest and thoughtful consideration of Pi Beta of Louisiana State Vniver. sity.

My illness of the past few months has made it necessary for all my responsibility for supervision of Pi Beta to be shifted upon the shoulder of the Grand President. Her cheerful spirit in assuming additional work for the Fraternity when her re· sponsihilities were very heavy already, is a lesson in service for all of us. Since this report is nece ss arily abbreviated the committee will welcome any ques· tions or suggestions.

COMMITTEE ON SCHOLARSHIP

ITH the comp leti on of my s«ond year as National Scholarship Chairman there are cer· tain definite developments to report. Last year was one principally devoted to the reorganization of committee work and the preparation of the manual and blanks. This year has been the 6rst complete year of operation under the new system. We can now observe to some extent the success with which the new system is working, although the chapter ratings, which will not be available until next fall , will reveal this more clearly.

The scholastic average of the whole Fraternity has been raised from 24 or 60 per cent in 1933·34 to 26 or 6S per cent in 1934·3S This means from 10 to 1 S per cent above all women's fraternity average. This shows a de6nite improvement throughout the fraternity. There were fifteen chap· te rs standing 6rst on their campus last year as against eight the previous year. There were four other chapters who stood second on their respective campuses with a very small rating below first. In 1933·34 there were two chapters standing at the bottom in scholarship on their campuses, both of which raised their scholarship to the first third last year. Last year there was only o n e chapter which wu low-cst of women's fratelnities on Its campus

We from th is that the average trend of the

TFraternity is above that of two years ago. The im· provement in scholarship is shown in graphic form on pages 210 and 211 of the May is sue of THE A.R.R.ow for 1936.

The committee has kept strictly to the regulations set forth in the new manual as to monthly letters, with very satisfactory results. These monthly reports have made it possible to keep in closer contact with the chapters and have proved quite sa tisfactory. The reports are supplemented by scholarship blanks I, 2, 4, and Form A which have all proved of definite value Only a few minor for these blanks have been suggested and might be carried out another year. The revision o f the manual has made cooperation with the chapters a great deal easier and has proved definitely constructive.

1 desire to express my thanks and apprecia· tion to my committee for their cooperation and constructive work. and to Grand Council for their prompt action in consider ing suggested changes in the organization and work of the committee. I have enjoyed my work on the scholarship commit· and wish to thank Grand Council and Miss Onken for the opportunity of serving the fraternity and inspirati o n of working with them.

CHAIRMAN COMMITTEE ON TRANSFERS

rlE graciousness and interest in transfers reo flected by the letters of hostess chapters is most encouraging and indkates a growing understanding of what transfer relationships should be. In most cases, transfers are extended all chapter privileges except voting. They may attend chapter meetings and social functions, including rwh parties; and they are generally encouraged to take their

at chapter houses and often to l ive there where there are adequate facilities Many chapters in addition, plan special parties and meetings for the express purpose of getting better acquainted with the new girls. It is especially interesting to note the often.expressed appreciation for the helpful ideu which transfers from their original chapters.

figures concerning transfers a re abou t the same as those for last year : Transfen reported 129 number from a single chapter. . . . . . . .. 12 Chapters reporting no transfers . .. . . .. . ... . 3' Cha pte rs failing to report. 7

The procedure this reu, also, followed very dosel, that of last year. In Septembrr letters Weff SOli to all chapters (with (ollow -up later in case of no rCl?ly) asking for ltsts of lrarufers to and from thcu campuses as well as the names of ad· visory board members io charge. At the same time they were reminded of their responsibility toward the new girls and to cooperate in every way to make them feel at home. When these lists

Twere correlated chapters were informed of any girls whom they had oot located. The help of the re· sponsible advisory board members and of the provo ince presidents was also solicited in furthering transfu contacts, and the many interesting letters received from them indicate that they have more than fulhlled their obligations.

Following suggestions induded in answers to • recent questionnaire. it is hoped that several changes may be made in the procedure which will bring even better results next year. Any additional suggestions or criticisms will be greatly appreciated.

In closing, my sincere thanks to the Grand Secretary, the Director of Central Office and others who have helped 50 willingly this year!

SOCIAL EXCHANGE COMMITTEE

THE PURPOSE of this committte is to obtain ma· terial for a publ ication Sodal which contains dnaiptions of dtver stunts, rushin, parties, homecomings. Boats. and suggestions for celebrating Founders ' Day. The deJCl'iptions are written up clearl, and simply. and it is hoped th;lt these ickas 'Ie helpful to the chapters of the Fratern ity, If chapters have any original ideu foe the above headings, pl6Se Jet the committee know about thtm. Th, Social Exchange Blllletin is the key to this puzzling question, "Where can we find a clever idea for this season's rushing party,

Tor stunt night ?" Now just consult ow publication, ready to assist you!

The rnutts of this year arc satisfactory, but we want to sec every province obtain 100 per cmt. TIle honor provinces for this year arc: Alpha, &t., and Gamma. Nat in order come the p'covinces with one ddinquent chapter: Delta, Epsilon, Zeta, Theta, Iota. and Kappa . The committee is very enthusiastic and helpful.

COMMITTEE ON FRATERNITY MUSIC

HE Committee on Fraternity Music wishes to report that another year of most interesting contacts has; been completed. Lttters have been exchanged between the members of the committee at intervals , and the chairman h2$ taken care of correspondence with other individuals when occasions demanded Questions came in on various phases of fraternity music.

An effort was made to compile a pamphlet f or rushing songs but the idea was dropped when not enough interest was shown by the chapters to warrant the expense.

The song contest was held before convention as usual. Fourtetfl songs were submitted, most of

Twhich were written out more carefully and in better form than ll!Iual. The four songs chosen as the best by the committee members were sent to convention for final voting.

Mrs Douglas Malin was awarded the prize of $20 .00 (a gift of Mrs Stark to the Fraternity) for the best Memori.1 Hymn. It is such I lovely song that we want to have it in THE ARRow next faU jf possible. It is appropriate for funerals and memorial exercises

We send most cordial greetings to Convention.

ADVISORY COMMI'ITEE ON CHAPTER FINANCES HOUSE BUILDING AND PLANS

HE CHAIRMAN of the Advisory Committee on Chapter Finances, House Building, and Plans has spent a great deal of time this year in cheding budgets The 1935 -36 budgets have been compared with those of 1933. '34, and '35. In 1933 suggestions made to over thirty chapters for corrections and revisions of their budgets. Many chapters followed. those suggestions with the result that a percent of our Pi Phi chapters better balanced budgets than formerly.

The item most frequently out of balance was that of rent. Quite a few were paying as rent to their associations, as high as one.third to one-half of their total collected income. The proper is one-fourth or less. In 1933 more than fifteen were paying $4.000 or more IS rent, or as rent and furniture funds ; today only six chapters are paying over that amount. Only three chapters are paying more than one·fourth of their income as rent. The number of girls living in chapter houses has greatly increased this past year, and this will help chapter finances

The food allowan ces have been sharply increased this year due to increased costs. Chapters should check: their food expenditures at end of year carefully as several chapters have allowed excessive amounts for food.

This committee has had little correspondence with chapters relative to building this past year, but as mortgage money is again available for new co nstruction, chapter house building wiJI undoubtedly increase . We urge groups contemplating new building to work out their finances carefully before starting their project This committee will gladly help with budgets for house associations.

This committet receives calls for chapter house plans every now and then . It is very difficult to get releases of plans of new buildings as all plans remain the property of the architect and are called in upon completion of the work. It is seldom that a plan will any help to another group due to varying climatic conditions, varying building laws in the different states, and the very different needs of the groups themselves.

In closing, we feel that chapters have improved their budgets materially, and are now getting real help from them. With conti nued business re<:overy, chapters who have had financial difficulty will be able to have their finances in order again an d hope will have benefited by past mistakes.

Respectfully submitted,

COMMITTEE ON CHAPERONS

A REPORT of diminishing murns is usually not welcome; but J hail it with enthusiasm when it applies to chaperon cards NOT in October 1. Tardy secretaries, I am happy to say, grow

and fewer . And all but of them responded pr omptly to my S.O.s . reminder, usually adding a courteow " Excuse it, please; I'm sorry:' I appreciate the promptness, carefulness, and courtesy

of the many. May the few about-face and follow the many's example! Remember October I, send one card and onc data blank-and all will well.

Pifty-thr« chapters now maintain houses. In only twelve were there new chaperons II$t September; however three of these changed again before the md of the year. So many staying on from year to year argues well, I think, for both chapter and chaperon. During the five years that cards have bttn tn use, only thret chapters have almost yearly and sometimes semi-annually; that is I think, either due to a mistake in choice or to unfortunate condjtions within the chapter, Chapters are demanding, more and more, women of superior ability for chaperons. The rumor of Pi Phi standards seems to have gone abroad. One applicant this sprins wrote, "I understand that Pi Beta Phi requ ires-" and then she listed a college degree, fine personal appearance, fine personality, social prestige, and all virtues---cven those possessed o nly by saints. She said she qualified. (I knew 1 didn't!) Of our new chaperons all have high school or private schooling; there is a graduate of Columbia, one from Stanford, one from Ohi o Wes-

TIcyan, one a Master from WeIJeslcy , one from Hamilton College, and one from a State Normal. If their personality matches their educational attainments, they are indeed fit to help chapters keep up Pi Phi standards; to maintain in the house that " atmosphere" which our Bulletin says they more than any other one are responsible for and to make the house a home of gentlewomen. Pi Phi is indebted to Grand Council for embodying these standards in our House Rules, Rules for Cllaperons, and Bulletin on Relations between Chapter and Chaperon. A campus recently thought so highly of our rules that it borrowed quite freely when formulating its own.

Nine of ou r chaperons are Pi Phis ; many others belong to other college fraternities, to P.E .O., to fraternal organizations, and to women's clubs.

Each month I am thankful to Mrs . Stark, head of our standing committees, for culling from our monthly letters bits of interest to al1 and for adding so much renenll information that keeps us alive to nationa affairs. To Grand Council, I am deeply grateful for their ever-present support and inspiration

PI BETA PHI MAGAZINE AGENCY

HE Maga zine Agency has closed a strenuous and triumphant year. We are now preparing to launch another year with its intensive campaign of Magazine subscriptions.

As will be seen in the financial report of the Agency, we have sent a total of $1,4'0.00 to the Settlement School. Of course, with the amount of business we have carried on our expenses have increased somewhat; then, with the loss in commissions and bonuses from Time, Inc., it is very simple to see we would with them have had another $2000.00 year.

If any dub would like to increase their proceeds to the Settlement School, they will find this project a most easy and pleasant way in which to earn money for our school. You wiH be amazed how si.mple it is to secure subscriptio ns , to aoy magazme.

Pi Beta Phi Agency is authorized to accept subscriptions for every magazine and periodical published in any language on the face of the earth!

There's a magazine covering every professi onevery hobby-n-ery industry--every taste and every age. Pi Phi can handle subscriptions to aU of them. Really, for gifts, a magazine subscription is now r«Ogaized as the most tasteful and satisfactory gjft . It's not looked at-laid aside-forgotten. It is actually 12 separate gifts in the case of a monthly and '2 gifts in the case of • weekly.

Gift suggesti ons have a great appeal to our busy friends of today, for Christmas $.ifts, Anniver· saries, Birthday gifts, Wedding galts, Valentine, Easter, Mothers' Day, Fathers' Day, Bridge Prizes .

There are thousands of persons who would gladly subscribe throulth our Agency if they know of its medts, special low prices, and prompt service.

We have 176 aJumnz clubs, 79 active chaptel's , besides the many individuals who cooperate with this Agency. Our Grand President. Miss Onken, not only lends her moral support, but sends in over $100.00 worth of orders.

Our Agency covers a lan:e area and reaches out to every comer of the United States and Canada, and even is prominent in far away places, such as

the Philippine Islands, Alaska, Hawaii, Newfoundland. and Mexico. Many chairmen are making a marvelous record and should assist others in this work in their club, in every possible way by giving them new leads and pointen in increasing their amount of sales.

One prominent chairman, M.rs. Armin Thebus , of Denver whose club has had first place for several years said to me, " I intend to send out a cam· paign le tter late this summer, then foll ow this up with personal contacts wherever possible in place of telephone calls. My active committee of ten girls contacts every Pi Phi in Dmver." This leader is also a contest next year which should be most successful.

We have these suggestions from the Detroit club, which has always been a leader. Theil' very capable chairman, Mrs W _ K. Groff says, "More of our members are interested in this work th is year than ever before We stress the Christmas prices and are able to obtain most of our business then. We also receive a large number of our orders from the schoo ls and clinics where some of our members are teaching. Magazines for all-year gifts are proving very popular in our club," also writes Mrs Groff

As we proceed from this interesting year's work, our scope of business has enlarged and developed to include large bids from schools, clinics, and libraries. We have used these contacts with great success. Also, we are enterinll th e professional and business field most successfully. The doctor, dentist, lawyer, and hairdresser are proving to be our noest customers.

We must bear in mind magazines may be placed in

V. E"t",,,i,,,,,,,,t: The most outstandins social cYCnts of the school yur Ire the three dances which the chapter giYCI. The fall dance, held during the Thlnlcsgi"ing weekend. is given by the pledges for the active mcmben:, At Christmu time, the chlpter usually join. with Cololido A in a Christmas formal. Tn 1914 this dance was postponed because of the untimely death of Mary Mor· It:an, one of the Ictive members or the chlpter. In 191), the Denver Alumolt Club sponsored s Christmas dinner dance which took the place of the Ictive chapter dlDce. We hope to rcYiYe the former custom this ),ur. To wind up the social alt'sirs of our chapter, we giYe a SprinR; formal dinner dance. EYCty yeu we give I series of luncheons honoring the members of the faculty. Being an urban chapter, the only occasions we hlvc for fOrml1 entertaining are the dinners held at the sorority each M ondlY niabt. One night wu given to the en· tertainment of t& Airls' Cathers. Ind on the dlY after MotheD' Diy we entertlined the mothers in a like manner. In the fall of each )'Cu. Ifter the beginning of school, we hold a series of fraternity IJUppen: at which the pledaes arc introduced to the fraternity men on the campus. Once a month we bold open·bouse to provide an opportunity for to meet and kn01' the frlternlty men. The pi giTe a tea for the of the other women's ratcrnitics on the campw wblch helps to keep the intcrsorority amlclble. Our Book·RC'Yiew Tea is "tto for the Settlement School and many alum· nit, relatj"cs, and townspeople attend.
