Announcements

Grand Council announces the following National Awards:

The Balfour Cup, jointly to Michigan B and Arkansas A

The Stoolman Vase, jointly to Kansas A and Ontario A

The Philadelphia Vase, jointly to Kansas B and Maine A

These awards represent the outcome of one of the most diJIicult decisions ever to be made by Grand Council, in that more chapters than ever before bad outstanding records, and the basis of choice was SO dose that the tie votes represent the true si tuatio n of impossibility of decision between records of practically identical achievement. In each case the cup will be held by the chapter first named for the first semester of the college year, and by the chapter named second for the second semester; where a three semester system is in use, the division will be at the actual middle of the year.

The National Amy B. Onken Award was given to Harriette Rbawn, Illinois E-she will be remembered as the girl who wrote the poem of chapter life wbich appeared in the May ARRow. Province awards appear elsewhere in this issue.

Conyention

Grand Council announces that Convention will be held at French Liclc Springs, Hotel Indiana, June 27-July 3, 1948-a choice which will give to Pi Phis of the middle section of the country their chance to attend. The Convention Guide will be Virginia Braclcett Green (Mrs. C. Norman), Indiana r.

Further information as to Convention plans and program wiU appear in the December ARRow.

Pi Beta Phi Fellowship

For the year 1948-49 the Fraternity will offer one graduate fellowship with a value of $500. The fellowship is open to any member of the Fraternity who has received her bachelor's degree, and it may be used at any university which offers special opportunities in graduate work along the line desired by its holder.

Two points will be considered by the Grand Council in awarding the fellowship: scholastic standing and aU·around development of character with its resultant ability worthily to represent the Fraternity. Each applicant must state definitely the university she wishes to enter, the courses which she desires to pursue, and the ultimate aim of her graduate study.

Applications accompanied by photographs of applicants, transcripts of coUege grades, creden· tials from college professors, and other recommendations, must be in the hands of the Grand President not later than January I, 1948.

AU material must be collected by the applicant and submitted as a whole. Blank forms for application 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 fellowship may make a new application.

Contributio

n s

The paper shortage conti nu es, and the Editor of the ARRow will more than app reci ate brevity in all contribution s-yet sh e urges that Pi Phis continue their fine inter est in the magazine as shown in their co ntribu t ion s. The ARROW wants most of all to know what Pi Phis are doing everywhere, and pictures are alw ays welcomed, even in th ese days of shortages when it may not be possible to use all that ar e sent in. Pictures will be returned on request, except in the case of pictures sent in for the picture sections of the ARROW, such as the Mortar Boards and oth er honor g irl s-those ca nn o t be returned, so valuable portrait sty le pictures should never be se nt for tho se section s-an d always, g lo ss y prints, please!

Of th e Golden A RR OW

Last Spring Founders D ay celebrations over the cou ntry de l ighted to honor their fifty year members who had become elig ibl e for the Order of the Golden ARROW, and from ma ny of those devoted women have co m e lett ers to Central Offi ce with thanks for the lov e ly gold engraved certificates which had come to th em. Of these letters, one seemed so ou ts tanding that it is with pleasure that we give it her e:

"The years leading up to this honor have brought me several special times of real happiness, because my own ini tiat ion was fo llo wed by th at of my three sisters, my three daughters, 2 of my nieces and my granddaughter. B esides, th e re were cousins and "in- Iaws" numbering 8, and making a total of 18 Pi Phi s in the family. I f ee l very unworthy of it al l. Please acce pt my thanks and my gratitude to Iowa Beta and others, who helped to establish the Order of the Golden Arrow Ada Mill s D ewe ll ( Mrs W. C.) Iowa Gamma."

Of Hon ors

From th e chapter reports we have g leaned som e interesting figures: Sixty Pi Phis were chosen for Phi Beta Kap pa: 1 52 gi rl s made Mortar B oard o r it s equivalent orga nization; of these thr ee chapters had s ix m embers, Maine A, Oklahoma A, and Vermont B; four chapters had live members each, Connecticut A, South Caroli na A, Colorado B and Texas B; 6 had four members each, Vermont A, D istrict of Columbia A, Alabama A, Wyoming A, Montan a A, and Orl'gon A ; six chapters had 3 members each. Ohio A, Flodd a A, Wisconsin A, Kansas B, Texas A, and Arkansas A.

Truly a remark ah le r ecord, and the ARROW congratulates all these gi rl s!

Come to Convention !

TH E ANNUAL meeting of the Grand Council of Pi Beta Phi was he ld a t the M ountain View Hote l. Gatlinburg. Tennessee. with all members p resent. Th e meeting was held June 19 to July 3 inclusive and in· cluded the conference of province officers, June 23·27, autho r ized by the 1946 Convention.

The next order of business was a review of the annual reports of the prov in ce vice-presidents which provided a comprehensive record of the alumnz dubs o f Pi Beta Phi and of alumnz club work. A study of the active chapters followed, based upon the annual reports of the province presidents. Recommendati o ns for the Balfour Cup, made by each province president, wert considered and checked with the Standardization and Survey report to determine the eligibility of chapters for the hiJithest awards of the Fraternity.

The unanimous decision of the Grand Council awarded:

The Balfour Cup to Michigan Beta and Arkansas Alpha, jointly.

The Stoolman Vase jointly to Kansas Alpha and Ontario Beta.

The Philadelphia Vase jointly to Kansas Beta and Maine Alpha

The divided honors in each of the awards prove the high quality of the competing chapters and the obvious difficuJtv in makioR a decision.

By another unanimous vote of the Grand Council, Harriette Rhawn. Illinois E, was awarded the National Amy Burnham Onken award

The following recommendations made by the Province Presidents in the currmt conference were considered and acted upon by Grand Council:

That Statutes VIII, Section 2, a. be amended by striking out, "to the interest of the nearest active chapter" and "to active chapter interests."

That chapters and alumnz dubs be contacted to learn whether the interest within the fraternity in the "Save the Children Foundation" is sufficient t o wa rrant the · appointment of a national chairman If so she would become the fraternity center through whom chapters and alumnr dubs could work further in the project which has already benefited from the ba l ance l eft in the Physiotherapy Fund, by action of the 1946 Convention.

PROVINCE PRESIDENTS CONFERENCE,

MOUNTAIN VIEW HOTEL, GATLINBURG, TENNESSEE, JUNE 22-25, 1947

A S WE cUove to the Mountain View Hotel. whose L"'1. proprietor is Andy Huff, we were greeted by a rustic and most appropriate si,gn. "Pi Beta Pbi School," which stands on our property ad· joini.ng the hotel. We had arrived in Gatlinburg. for many of us a first time, for others a delightful retwn.

We had come for the conference of province officers with Grand Council, as the result of an idea and decision made at the Province Presidents' meeting last summer. There had been doubt expressed then as to how valuable such a meeting would be. but one's doubts were soon allayed as one to the enthusiasm both in and out of the meetings.

Mrs Sale, outgoinA Settlement School Chairman, started our conference by her carefully planned tour of the School. A walk through the hayfield brought us to the Health Centre where we visited with our nwse, Marjorie Chalmers, and heard something of her work This walk: and the path through the pasture which leads from the Health <:mtre to Pollard and Teachers' CottaRC' became very familiar to us, as our walk to and from meetings which were held at Teachers' Cottage took us that same way unless we managed to leave the hotel in time to stop by Arrowcraft Shop. Our tow that mornina; took us to the Shop, too. and all the places so familiar to us by name. and when it was all over one found it difficult to realize that three whole hours had elapsed en route

Province officers as well as chapter treasurers find their difficulties in remembering all the details of the Busey System, and therefore, the first afternoon with the Province Presidents was profitably spent with the Grand Treasurer giving an interpretation of this sys· tern. It soon became quite intelligible under Mrs. Prouty's able guidance.

Up until evening of the 6rst day the Province Presi.

Tdents and Province had b«n meeting with various members of Grand Council present, the former being Wlder the direction of the Director of RwhiDJit and Pledge TnininA and the latter under that of the Director of Extension. However, c10sinA the first evening there was a ,oint meeting of the two groups to discuss rushinA and recommendations. On all oth er occasions the two groups met apart, meeting regularly morning, afternoon, and eveninA for thr ee days and until noo n of the fourth day_

Discu.ssion ranged over every subject of chapter life and o rAani zatio n along a program outline drawn up fr om sUAAestions submitted beforehand. A report of the discussions cannot be induded here, but any de<:isions reached or action taken will be found in the minutes of the Grand Secretary.

We met in the beautiful Smoky Mountains country to work and not play. We parted with onl, joy in our hcuts over meetioJe our fellow officers and over baviOR shared ideas durinA our days together. There was relaxation at meaJtime. and one short period of re<:reation when the Settlement School staH and Workshop students entertained w at a delightful picnic in the mountains followed by the lovely colored movies showing the St. Louis Fashion Show in aid of the School.

The days went all too quickly and it was with sadness we said farewell-to Miss Onken and the other Grand Council officers, to Miss Dyer. Director of Settlement School, to each other. and to the many friends made our sta, in Gatlinburg. We had renewed our fa ith in fraternity; we had exchanged thouJthts; and we left inspired to serve to the best of our ability our Areat Pi Beta Phi.

REPORT OF CONFERENCE OF PROVINCE VICE-PRESIDENTS AT GATLINBURG, JUNE 23 TO 26 , 1947

HB THREB day meeting of province officers of the Fraternity opened on the morning of Monday. June 23 rd, and continued for three and a half days with sessions in the morning. and evening.

In order to acquaint with oW' Settlement School those officers who h.d never seen it. early (9 :00 ) Mond.y momina; both Province Presidents and Province Vice-Presidents A;athered for a three-hour tour. With Mildred Sale. out·,goinR chairman of the Settle-ment School committee. as chief guide and membef'$ of the staff details as their own domains were visited, the Jtroup walked over the grounds, inspected the buildings, saw the Summer Workshop in session, a nd finished their pilarimage at our charminA Arrow. craft Shop where they had a chance to see the stock. note how trtistically the goods are displayed, and learn methods and details of distribution of the products clubs and chapters. In the afternoon while the PVPs , under the tutelage of the Grand Treasurer. Lolita Prouty, learned of the intricacies of the Busq' System , the PVPs were by the Grand Vice-President in a discussion of their monthly letters.

In the evening the subjects taken up were the Con· vention Tax and Life Membership, bv a joint discussion with the Province Presiden ts of rushing and rushing recommendations.

On Tuesday the topic for the entire day and evening was "Organization," which covered a multitude of minor problems. Among them were:

PunctioninA of Executive Committees

Importance of Officer Training

Letters between PVP and club president

Annual Reports

Required meetings

Juni or ,'troups

Material in club files

Use of rituals and ceremonies

Workshop for officers-province conferences

EduCttional pro,(trams Aiving more information about the Fraternity's prestige and achievements. Problems of various types of clubs

Wavs and Means

Out of this day's discussion came three recommendations to Grand Council, namely:

1. That there be made a set of Kodachrome slides of Holt House, including particularly the 6gu· rinH of the Founders, and that narrative rna· terial accompany the s lides

2. That Statutes VIII, Section 3. Requirements f or Alumni!! Gubs, be changed from "devoted to the interests of the Dearest active chapter" to "devoted to active chaptu iDteresb."

3. That material (or the four required meetings be especially pre pared with a n introd ucti o n of an inspirational nature and se nt ou t under separa te cover in the fa ll to t he cl ubs.

Annual Reports of National Officers

REPORT OF GRAND PRESIDENT

To Pi Phi:

THE success of the 1946 Convention which brought Pi Beta Phis together for the first time in many years and gave them an opportunity to evaluate the work done by the Fraternity and to plan for its future is even more evident now than it was when convention sessions ended, a year ago, Now it can definitely be known both that the pla.nning was wise and that the inspiration of Convention has been translated into constructive service to chapters and alumnE dubs and so into new strength and added prestige for Pi Beta Phi To work with and for a Fraternity whose organization and personnel mean that there can be constant progress towards an ever-advancjng goal of the highest standards of living and serving is a privilege for which the Grand President can never adequately express her gratitude.

The reports of officers. and committee chairmen do indeed show a year of high achievement. Study them in order that your pride in Pi Beta Phi may have the 6rm foundation which accurate kn ow ledge lays Although the return of men students to campuses, in large numbers, created many conditions which worked against women students and brought scholastic and activity competition unknown in recent years, Pi Beta Phi chapters came through the last college year with records for campus recognition and for scholastic excellence se ldom if ever equaled. As yet incomplete r eports for the college year 1946-47 seem to indicate that even the excellent scho larship record foe 1945-46, when fourteen chapters held first place on their comparative lists for the entire year and thirty-o ne others were in the upper third of their respective lists, has been broken. A special effort has been made to see that the fourteen chapters which in were in the lowest third of their lists would climb to a place worthy of themselves and their fraternity and would put the fraternity well on its way to its goal of "Every chapter in the upper third of its comparative list." AJ an added incentive for good scholarship, the Fraternity will make new awards, during the coming yeu. It will determine which chapter in each Province has an average the highest percentage above its all-women '5 average, and it will then award twenty-five dollars to the member of that chapter who has improved her personal record the 1:Iost over that of the preceding year. In this way, the Fraternity will honor both high averages and successful efforts to improve. The influence of Pi Beta Phi for the things which make for the highest and finest type of young womanhood has been most gratifyingly evident during a year when coHege administrators have been greatly concerned at the many influences at work to make the cheap, common, and not-lovely thing the accepted one. If the college fraternity, in these years of adjustment throughout the world, does nothing more than guide college women towards goals of lastingly worthy and beautiful living, it can continue to face all criticism directed towards it because it can be confident of its invaluable service in the field of education.

In June, the first confertnce of Province officers and Grand Council members ever to be held in the interim of conventions met in Gatlinburg Whether or not the fraternity can finance such workshops as· a

regular part of its program, there can be no question of the concrete help and the lasting inspiration which from those days of study and cooperative plan· the officers upon whom such heavy responsi· bility hes for the future of the fraternity, The value of the Province workshops for chapte r presidents and pledge supervisors is again being provcd. by this summer's meetings.

A most lnteresting experience Olme to the Eugene Alumna: Club when, in answer to a Dewspaper appeal help in writing its little Finnish boy, d received sixteen telephone offers of assistance! Grand Council believes that many alumna: dubs and chapters will be too interested in their "children" to be willing to lose the contacts with them at the end of for which the fraternity's funds provided . If IOdlvldual chapters and clubs wish to take care of continued support for a few months or for another full year, the Frtternity will set up machinery to arrange for this. has not seemed wise. however, to attempt any campaign for funds for a general renew al of. the fraternity's aid as such. It will only be in lin e With the general women's fraternity picture, however, if Pi Beta Phis continue to make life easier and hap · picr for children whose lives have been .so desolated by a war for which they had no responsibility and from which they had no escape.

Holt House, under the able chairmanship of Gladys Stump Nail, has had a most successful ycar as a memorial of .which the fraternity can feel increasingly proud, and Its place in the hearts of Pi Beta Phis grows deeper each year. Architect's plans for constructing at H olt House a fire-and-moisture-proof room in which the fraternity's invaluable store of articles of historic interest may be housed are now at the point where contractors' bids can be called for,

During the year, Grand Council has accepted with regret the resignations of the following Province Presidents who have been forced for personal reasons to resign after having given fine service: Katherine Black Massenburg, Gamma Province, succeeded by queline Fowlkes Herod; Gertrude Scanlon Burley, Eta Pro.ince, whose successo r is still to be appointed; and Margaret Jacoway, Kappa Provioce, whose su ccessor is Mildred Odell Sale. Officers elected by Convention but unable to serve were Betty Wood Weir, Margaret Ann Twyman, Ellen Cross Vaupell and Mary Jane Nichols whose successors were Lee Moss, Margaret .lacoway, Emily Babcock Dra per, and Olga Charles Siburg, respectively.

This year marked the end of the period of Settlement School Committee membership for two of the most constructive and valuable members which the Committee has ever had-Mildred Odell SaJe, chairman, and Ann Leichliter Munn , secretary and contact

member foe Arts and Crafts It is impossible to express the appreciation which the Fraternity feels for each or the joy which worlcing with them has meant for other officers and for the Staff at the School. The many problems brought on by constantly changing conditions in G atli nburg have bttn met wisely and efficiently under th e ex ceptionally able leadership of Mildred Sale whose influence and whose place in the esteem of the entire community and of University of Tenoessee, County, and State admi nistrative officers reflects high honor upon the Fratecnity Her report will teU of the 'Wonderful way in which Pi Beta Phi continues its high service to Gatlinburg and, through the successful summer session, to handicraft lead er s throughout the entire nation. The fraternity welcomes Ruth Barrett Smith as incoming ' chairman of th e Settlement School Committee. and Olivia Smi th Moore and HaIriet Goodsell Rauch as new mcmbus whose value is already clearly evident

It is with Af&titude for the return of conditions which make biennial conventions again possible that Grand Council announces that the 1948 Convention will be held at French Lick Springs, June 27 to July 3. No Pi Beta Phi can aHord. to miss the privileBe of fraternity associations which convention will bring! Begin now to plan to be at French lick Sprioss whose adequate facilities and beautiful settifl8 offer so much in themselves. Help ma.lce the next con· vention a true inspiration and one marking another long step forward for Pi Beta Pbi.

The annual meeting of Grand Council was held at Gatlinburg. immediately before and after the meeting with Province officers and concurrently with the iog of the Settlement School Committee with wbom several joint sessions were held. Since Pi Beta Phi now holds the chairmanship of National PanheUenic Con· it will be the hostess fraternity for the coming conference to be held at the Broadmoor, Colorado Sprioss, November 10-14, 1947. All Grand Council members will attend, so the Fraternity may be sure that its responsibilities u hostess will be fully met. May the Grand President exprcss her deep apprecia· tion for the way in which individual Pi Pbis, alumna: dubs, and active chapters hue made their support for her as NPC Chairman evident througb increased contributions to the success of both college and city Panbellenic:s? She has given her best to make her term of office a constructive one for fraternities. 10 addition to routine office work, sbe has, during the past year, atteodcd as NPC chairman a meeting of the Advisory Council of the Women's Interest Section of the Public Relations Division of the War Department and will, in September, serve as NPC representative at the Triennial of the International Council of Women. to be h<ld in Philadelphia She bas aoo been the guest speaker at PanhcUenic Workshops at Michigan State College and George Washir:&gton University; and bas heeD the speaker at PanhelJenic meetings at the University of North Carolina and Duke University, at a meeting of the Des Moines City and at

iu always the task of making the Fraternity's a wards has been a most difficult one. The high standards of achievement set by chapters and indi. vidual actives as a whole make the receipt of any special award recognition whose importance cannot be ovee·emphasized. It was with deep pride in all chapters and all seniors that Grand Council awarded the Balfour Cup jointly to Arkansas A and Michigan B; the Stoolman Vase jointly to Kansas A and Ontario A ; the Phil ade lphia Cup jointly to Maine A.. and Kansas B; and the nation,l Amy Burnham Onken award to Harriette Rhawn, lllinois E The Province Amy Burnham On1c.co award winners. each of whom bad an amning recoed for recogniti on for campus se rvice, personality, scholarship, and chuactee a..re:

MESSAGE OF THE GRAND VICE-PRESIDENT

T 0 AJ"mn4lr 0/ Pi Bet. Phi;

THB leadership of the Alumnr Department of the fraternity wa.s ta.lceo over from the able hand5 of Ruth Barret Smith with a deep sense of humility. & this first year draws to a close, we have an increased Ic.nowledge of. and an appreciation for the efforts of Pi Phis everywhere. In the fall we suggested to the a1umne clubs twelve points, which translated into action could mean progress. Some of them a.re in· tangible$-things of the spirit. yet others used as a ya.rdstick do give us the meu;ure of our progress

Summed up these twelve points faU under the general headings of Membership, Attendaoce. Study, and Effort. During the past year ovu fifteen hundred more alumnz paid national dues than duriOS the previous year. Every province showed a gain in memo bctshif' A part of that is accounted for in the charter· ins 0 eight new alumna: dubs Gamma Province takes the lead in alumna: extension with three new clubs; Raleigh, NOM Carolina, Washiegton, D .C. Junior Club, and Durham, North Carolina. Kappa Province has two new clubs; McAlester. Oklahoma. and Rio Grande VaUey (Texas) Qub; with one each in the foUowing provinces; Alpha East. Stamford, Coonccticu, Alpha We>, Ithaca, New York; and Epsilon, Knoxville, Tennessee Other facton con· tribu.ting to this increased membership a.re; enthusiasm brought back from Swampscott by alumnr delegates, bard working membership chairmen, and with the end of war more time avaiJable generally for fra· ternity activities

And yet with this fine record there are still some thirty thousand alumnI! who do not pay their na· tional alumnz dues. Many of those thousands live in communities where there are chartered alumnr clubs. There lies a real challenge to the dub which has enroJled only one fifth, one third, or one half of the resident members. Special congratulations go. therefore. to the fourteen clubs having every resident member a ptlid member of the club. Some of them even had more paid members than resident members! Quite a number of these clubs have had this fine record year after year. Many more clubs came within two or three of attaining that 100% goal in memo bership. Those dubs having 100% memberShip this year are: Buffalo, New Yodel Poughlc.eepsie, New York. Oxford, Ohio, Central Pennsylvania, Jefferson City. Missouri , Little Pigeon, Tennessee, Lakeland, Florida, Carthage, Illinois, Joliet, Illinois, Hutchinson Kansas, Manhattan, Kansas, Vermiluon. South Da· kota. Norman, Oklahoma.. and Wenatchee, Washing· ton. Orchids to Iota Province for three such clubs!

Little Pigeon. Tennessee. St. Petersburg, Florida, BiJliogs, Montana , and Berkeley, California clubs have revived after periods of inactivity. Bloomington· Normal. Illinois mwt regretfully be asked for its charter after the two years of inactivity allowed by the constitution. Raleigh, North Carolina has sur· rendered its charter, and Carlisle. Pennsylvania has once aga.in combined with the Hurisburg, Pennsyl · vania Club, so thtlt the year ends with 213 active clubs on the fraternity roll.

This year 883 seniors paid alumnr dues. It is hoped that many of them will become active members of the various alumnz clubs along with those actives who have dropped out of school before graduation. Specia.l. letters of welcome were sent this year to be read to graduating seniors after Senior Farewell Ceremony

Membership and attendance go hand in hand. Club, must have attendance to pin members. and ooce pa.id. members regular is necessary for the sam.. factory functioniog of the club. It was • joy to know of the wge number of dubs reporting increased attendance. The secret of their success was attributed to good programs, a friendly spirit within the club, as man., members as possible with definite responsibilities, and, of course, a lessening of the press of outsid e civic duties.

In an effort to attain greater understanding of the fraternity, Province Vice-Presidents have laid stress on studyioR the duties of club officers so that they wouJd be chosen wisely and well; on reviewing local constitutions SO that they might be brought up to date, and provisions possibly forgotten or overlooked enforced or changed; on a study of the nati onal constitution and statutes, and fraternity manuals so that clubs would gain a national viewpoint and understanding.

In work foc the fraternity is a fine record of achievement. The great interest for pj Beta Phis everyw h ere is, of course, our Settlement School. One cannot know of the School. or see it in its beautiful setting on the edge of the Great Smoky Mountain National Park without bavin& a deep sense of pride. and of gratefulness to the various committees which have guided its destiny-the first committees that selected the site. set the pattern of work, and made friends in the community for the fraternity; the following committees down to the present ooe have s«o changes come and have developed our program to fit the needs, found new opportunities for service to the old, the middle aged, and the young. For the last three yean the School buildings and facilities have not been idle during the summer months. A Summer Workshop sponsored in conjunction with the University of Tennessee has been most successful. This year alone seventy·two students from over thirty of our States will come for a three or six weeks session studying Weaving, Jewelry, Recreation.a.1 Crafts, Textile Design, and Community Recreation under skilled leaders, and will take ba ck to their communities new skills for their people that may be either of therapeutic or occupational value. Credit for this work is given by the University for graduate or undergraduate degrees.

Of our 213 clubs 1S failed to contribute to the School. In addition to special gifts or contributions to the Memorial Fund, clubs contributed $10 ,68S.77. Those provinces 100% in their contributions to the Schoo l are: Beta. Epsilon, Eta, and Jota. These figures represent an increase in both total amount and number of dubs contributing. No matter what the amount contributed each one helps to make possible our project in Gatlinburg. Special thanks, however, go to those fourteen more than Jut yearcontributing $200 .00 or more.

work of the Settlement School is also helped by the sale of Arrowcraft products. Over one hundre d families are on the weavers' payroll. Excellent pub· licity is derived by clubs in announcing Arrowcraft sa les and teas, and by the display of the lovely articles which come from the looms in Gatlinburg. More articles were av ai lable this year, and still many clubs were .disa p2Qinted in not desired amounts . Every effort is being made to sec that sup ply for next year will be available to meet tM anticipated increase in demand. This point is emphasizM by the fact th2t last year thirteen clubs were able to obtain and sell ovec $600.00 worth of Arrow. craft, while this year twenty-nine cluhs fall within that figure. The top three are: Champaign ·Urban a with a membership of 64 ($1.500 00), Lawren ce, Kansas with a membership of 42 ($1 ,200 .00), and Milwaukee, Wisconsin with a membership of 7 1 ($1,14'.95). The other clubs selling over $600 00 are: Albany. New York, Albuquerque. New Mexi co, Berkley, CaJifornia, Bloomfield Hills, Michigan, Chi· cago, North, Illinois, Cleveland, East, Ohio, Dallas, Texas, Denver, Colorado, Houston Texu, Kansas City, Missouri, Lafayette, Indiana, Los Angeles, Cali. fomia , LouisviUe, Kentucky, Madison, Wiscon sin, Northern New Jersey, Omaha, Nebraska, Philad e lphia, PennsyJvania, Portland, Oregon, St. Loui s, Missouri, Salem, Oregon, Sao Diego, California, San Francisco, California, Springfield, Missowi, Tacoma , Washington, Tulsa, Oklahoma, and the Washington , D C., Senior and Junior Clubs jointly

Still another way of contributing to the School is by supporting the Magazine Agency. The fact that last yeu many subscriptions had, by requirement of publishing houses, been two year subscriptions, plus the increased. subscription ntes of a number of maga· zines made total commissions earned this year less than last year_ the handsome sum of $6,836.12 was e:uned by the clubs this year e ndin g May l,th Congratulations go to the prize winning clubs.

Denver, Colorado, with Mrs . Ellis Gilchri st, Chair· man, for making the highest total commissions, $300.00 wins $10 .00.

Bloomfield HilJs, Michigan , with Mrs H Walmsley, Chairman for making the high es t per·capita commissions, $7.18, ins $10_00 Austin, Texas, with Mrs. Raymond Hill, Chairman, for making the greatest percentage increase, 13 , 233% wins $5.00.

Iota Province again led aJl other provinces in total commissions.

Holt House? the birthpillce of the fraternity, continues to grow in the hellrts of the members of Pi Beta Phi The development and maintainance of the house has been in the hands of II new committee this year, the last convention having voted that II representative of the Monmouth, Illinois, Beloit, Wisconsin, Galesbur& IJIinois, Springfield, Missowi , and Iowa City, Iowa, clubs should compose the mem· bership of the Committee_ The work has been made easier for them by the increasing number of clubs making contributions f or that pu rpose One hundred ninety-three clubs contributed a total of $1,290 .75. Kappa Province clubs were the largest total contributors with $186.2'. Epsilon Province is planning a province gift of a :silva service for the near future, whicb is to be in addition to the r egular club con· tributions. The Tacoma Club known as the lo ez Smith Soule Alumnr Club gave a special gift of $25.00 in memory of Mrs. Soule in addition to their regular amount. Kansas City, gave the

larA:est amount of $)00.00 with Dalla s, Texas second with $50 .0 0, and Galesburg, Illin ois, Man h atta n, K ansas, M on mou th, Ill ino is, Oklahoma City, Okla. homa, and Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania each giving $25.00.

Th e r espo nse to the Loan Fund was not quite as great this year as last, while on the other ha nd there was a slight increase in the number of applications for loa ns . This year th ere were seven loa ns made. including one graduate loan . The feeling is rather general that there will be a greater demand upon the fund in the n ext few years so that our interest in supporting it shou ld not slacken. One hundred ninetytwo clubs contributed $1 ,016.00. Mu Province was first in such co ntributi ons with the largest single contributions coming from Austin, Texas, and Madison, Wisconsin with $2'.00 each. •

These three pr ojects then, Settlement School, H olt House, and Loan Fund , are those considered in recording clubs 100 0/0 in their contributions to fraternity projects. It is with great pride that we note that one hundred ninety clubs achieved that goal with Beta. Epsilon, Zeta, and Theta Provinces being 1 00% in contributions. In several other provinces this goa l was missed by one or two clubs . It is h oped that next year in making this report it may me sa id that every club was a 100 0/'0 club!

This rec ord is especially commendable in view of the added financial responsibility of clubs i n meeting th e ir Convention Tax Fund obligations. Whil e n o t a unanimously popular innovation, the Convention Tax Fund seems the best soJution to the feel· ing of need for fraternity assist! nce in finanCing alumna: delegates to conventions. It was interesting indeed to read in an Informati on AJUtow of some years ago that when national alumna:- dues were rai sed from fifty cents to one dollar that that was no t unanimously popular either. It now appears that clubs w ill receive as their portions slightly over sixty dol· Ian toward sending their delegate to convention in 1948. In anticipation of this allotment many more clubs than before have fund s set up in their local budgets to add to that amount-and it is hoped st i II othe rs will do so this; coming year-so we a nti ci· pate that a greater number of clubs than in previous years will be represented in the Sessions.

The work of the various clubs does no t stop with th e ir contributions to the three projects. Assistance to active chapters is certainly a major consideration in the pJans of every club even though they may n ot be so fortunate as to have a chapter in the same city. AJumnr clubs gave in actual ash $4,488.98 to chapters. This figure is augmented by gifts presented fo r which no amount was reported, by assistance in decorating plans, by giving rushing teu, and by annual awards for a. designated d istinguished chapter serv ice--such as the Alpha East Province Sophomore Award. Then there are parties for actives home for the holidays, and th ere are meetings whae actives are entertained at lunch eo n or dinner_ Finally there a.re the many hows of loyal and devoted service t o chapte r s by membe.rs of Alumnc Advisory Committees, not to speak of the time given by Rushing Recom· mendations Committees in s«ucing information con· cerning prospective candidat(s for membership. The club not having a chapter at hand has in many cases "adopted" one, with their contact established by correspondence or occasional visits back and forth.

As was voted by convention, the unexpended baJ· aace in the Physio·Therapy Fund was given to the Save The Children Foundation for the sponsorship by Pi Beta P hi of 43 children in the war tom countries

of Europe. Each province WIS assilJnN two one for the active chapters, and one for the .tumnr clubs. The additiorul children were assigned to the eight chapters and the eight clubs giving the largest contributions to the o!iginal fund one to K:appa Province because of Size. The prOVince officer picked the sex and nationality of the child Clubs were delightN with the opportunity for service to others, and extended further aid to these stricken child ren by sending boxes of clothing, food. some of the necessities of life so hard for the Europeans to obtain, a few games. crayons, and books. One province assigned one dub a month to send a box, keeping a li st of articles smt, and mailing it on to the next club so that the contents would Dot be so nearly duplicated. went back and forth these child ren, their parents, and the clubs. A few clubs were able to have the films prepared by the Foundation at one of their regular meetings. Some very fine publicity resulted from these activities. Of particular inte rest was the human interest story which appeared in the Eugene, Oregon, paper asking for help in transl atinlt and writing letters to their Finnish child. The interest in the story was attested to by the number of replies they had to the appeal. Man y clubs will carry on these contacts during the summer months.

As a resu lt of convention action last summer, a new feature of alumnz dub activities was the observance in January of Chapter loyalty Day, honoring Carrie Chapman Catt and her loya lty to her own chapter. The Publicity Committee prepared a resume of Mrs. Can' s life which most of the clubs used. as a basis for thei r program, presenting it in several different ways, some even using it for newspaper stories. Other clubs chose this as a time to d o something for the chapter nearby or the one of their choice. The New York City Club was fortunate in having Mrs Catt as an honored guest. All rejoice that our first Chapter loyalty Day could be celebrated. while Mrs . Catt could partiripate with us in it

Founders' Day this year took. on added significance as clubs pajd special tribute to their members who had become members of the national Order of the Golden lurow created at last convention to honor those members initiated fifty yeus or more.

More and more clubs are sponsoring a local project of service to others. These offer not only the oppor· tunity for good publicity for the club, but of creating an awareness of Pi Beta Phi in the minds of the com· munity. proving fraternities are not mere social organizations established for pucely personal pleasures. Most of all they bring joy to Pi Phis in being able to work together making life happier and easier for others less fortunate. It is not possible to give the number of hours so spent. the dollars invested, or even a partial list of the projects, but it goes without savi ng the fraternity takes pride in the places Pi Phi s have made for themselves and the fraternity in com· munity affairs,

Questionnaires have been received from one hundred ninety·two clubs. These are used to evaluate the work of the Alumnae Departmen t in general , and of the individual clubs in particular. Program suggestions are especially noted and new ideas passed along for those who wish to use them. Suggestions for the improvement of the functioning of the Alum· nae Department ace always solicited, and these ideas when feasible are incorporated into the planning for the future . Because of the requests fr om clubs for new program material, and because of the widespread use

of the Statement of Maj or H o lt "hich was sent to clubs this yca.r, it is hoped that other such material of interest to the fraternity may continuc to be made avai lable to clubs

During the course of the )lca.r it was the pleasure of your Grand Vice-president to visit with a number of clubs. Th ose visited were : Richmond. Indiana and Oxford, Ohio jointly, Chicago Business Womens', JIIinois, St Louis, Missour i, Columbia, Missouri, Kansas City, Missouri, Kansas City, Kansas, Omaha , Nebraska, Vermillion, South Dakota, Manhattan, Kansas, Peoria, Illinoi s and informally with Denver, Colondo. It was with reAret that we could not accept the invitation from Louisville, Kentucky, and Washington, D .C. to celebrate Founders' Day with them. We attended the Indiana Statc Found ers' Day Luncheon in Indianapolis alonA with '03 other memo bers of Pi Beta Phi Chaptcrs visited were Missouri A Kansas A and B,and South Dak ota A, We had the privilege of unoffi cia l visits with Colorado B, Indi ana r, and E We inspected the petitioning group. Lambda Phi at Bradley University, Peoria, Illinois, and were privileged to return to assist in the installation of that chapte r at Illin ois e of Pi Beta Phi . No matter how frequ ent the contact by correspondence notbinlt quite equals the persona l touch for satisfactory working to· gether T o those alumnz and actives--where names became people--wc wish to express oue appreciation for hospitality, and the privilege of friendship.

We have enjoyed working with the Province VicePresidents in the past, but this year has brought even closer and more frequent contacts. To them we pay tribute for their fine work and thc splendid record of achievement and progress for the AlumnI:! Department. It was with regret that the resignation of Jean Pickard Stallings, Zeta Province Vice-Pcesident, was accepted last fall. W cJcomed in her place was Lillian Elliso n undle,. At the end of this year resignations were tendered and regretfuly accepted from Jean Padden Johnston, Theta Province Vice-President , and Virginia Miller Tatom, Mu Province Vice-President. We are pleased to announCe as their succcssors Helen Wright Grant. and Louise Rosser Kemp respectively .

As we bring this report to a close we look forward to the meeting with the province officers at the Settlement School for the four day meeting authorized by the Alumnz Sessions of Convention.

It has been a great joy to thus serve the fra· ternity. The contacts with the other members of Grand Council have been a privilege. We wish to thank especially Miss Onken for her patience and helpfulness in assisting us through this first year as Grand Vice·President. To Marie Bacon Haltee, DirectOr of Alumnae Extension , our deepest thanks for her ever ready assistance. and cooperation in working for the Alumna! Department. Beatrice Stephenson Felmley has been a constant sou rce of help For alumna! everywhere wc say a fond farewell to "Bedc" as she leaves Office, and extend a cordial welcome to her successor Gladys Scivally.

In concluding her report to convention last year, Ruth Barrett Smith gave us a quotation ·'The ARROW will mount as high as the strength of the Archer sends it," and expressed the hope that convention would send out Archers strengthened and inspired to send their Arrows higher and farther than ever before. It can honestly be said that her hope has been realized. My hope for next year is that the flight of the Arrows may continue onward and upward.

GRAND S EC RETAR Y

THE TIME foe an annual report is an ocasion when the work of the year is brought iota review, in a fashion which is ,good for: aU concerned. The report becomes experience. voiced, out of which we can evaluate work dooe and upoo which we an build. The ideals of the Fraternity stand. but the methods of organization are never nnd-<ootinuaUy changing: to meet the changiog opportunities and demands.

The first responsibility of the Grand Secretary in the year just ending with the completion of post-Con· veotioo work. This included the compiling of the te· ports of the of Grand Council and of the minutcs of the Convention, for publication in THB ARRow. Courtesy notes were written as directed by the Resolutions Committee and Grand Council.

In the early fall. contacts weee made in the various phases of work assigned to this office for supervision. A letter was written to all Alumnz Advisory Committees explaining changes made by Convention which concerned the active chapters under their supervision. Suggestions w",e made for the organization of chapter work in the fall A second letter and a questionnaire were sent in January. About half of these question· naires came b ade very promptly; a few, as late as May. 'The September Iette.r of this year will include the findiRAS which ue evident from comments made by the Alumnae in the returned papers. This group of four hundred and fifty-live alumnlf forms one of the great bulwarks of the Fraternity and provides the esse ntial continuity of each chapter.

Chapters which are under the supervision of the Grand Secretary were contacted regularly. Three chapten have completed the two-year term of special supervision designed to aid new chapters. They art Michigan r, Ohio E, and Ohio Z; two remain-New Mexico A and IJlii0is e, just installed. The Fraternity has reasoD for grea t pride in the ptrforrnance of its youngest chapters.

TThe Grand Secretary corresponds with the chairmen of al1 national committees not otherwise assigned. It is her duty to know th e ir plans and procedures and to assist them in every way possible. She becomes their contact with other fraternity w o rkers and with the Grand Council. This was done by letter, frequent or non ·frequent, according to the nature of the work. Here again one is impressed by Pi Beta Phi l oyalty and ability.

Another special duty of this year was the prepa.n.tion of a. manual for the chapter chairmen of Extracurriculu Activities. Routine secreiari:tl duties have been performed throughout the year as required.

It was a happy privilege to visit the following chapte.rs--New York 4, New York A, New York r, Ontario A, Ontario B, aDd Ulinois A. This year also brought the privilege of being the guest of the Syracuse, Toronto, and Monmouth AlumnI! Clubs and of beinK active o nce more in the Pittsburgh Alumnae dub alter a.n absence of four years.

One cannot think of these without renewed gratitude to the Alumnz Advisory Committee chairmen, the presidents and the supervisors of chapters under supervision, the national committee chairmen, and the presidents of chapters visited, all of whom have corresponded faithfully and encouraged this Pi Beta Phi officer by their interested apd cordial response.

To feel the pulse of a great organization, in whose oeigins aDd idea l s we find congenial aspiration, is a thrilling exPCrience. Mv gratitude for the privilege o f servin,g the Fraternity lies in this, and" in the satisfying and happy associations which it brings. One cannot touch the li ves of all of the Pi Beta Phis brought neu by this work without believing in the value of fraternity friendship and ins piration.

lUCJLI! DoUGLAS CARsoN

ARROW EDITOR

HB YBAR 1946-47 has been far from one of simple routine for THB ARRow Editor.

It be.RaD with the monument.lIy weighty September issue following Con ..ention-an issue which we miJtht say was heavy with facts , since many of its report! a six year interim of operations, and since the increasing number and length Df the reports of chapter delegates to Convention made by themselves more than enough material for an ordinary issue.

Luclcily, that issue was compl ete and had been for some time in the hands of the publishers when the office of the Editor wu burned out on Augu st n.

THE Allow fiJe and most of the o ld records were saved, but reCent correspondence and a mas! of new mateeial was lost, especially that for the December Anow, on wbich the Editor had been workin. the very day of the rue. Some of thi! was replaced in time for that number, but much could never be replaced. Other material was substituted. however, and the Convention issue went to press on time. That was also • VO'Y lu« issue, and justifiably so, since Convention bad not been held for six yean and · a fC"I'iew of its activities was necessary for the thousand! of Pi Phis who had never had the opportunity of C0nvention attr:ndance.

With the end of the war, we had thou.lht that our troubles were over as fu as paper shortaJteS were concerned. We were wrong! Paper has been harder to

get than at any previou! time this year, and the last two issues of the year had to be drastically cut, as did those of the other fraternity magazines of large circul ation-in our case thls was especially true becaU5C the plant of the company from whom we have bought our paper had to be partiaJly shut d o wn on account of reconstruction which J:lromises to increase greatly their capacity for output for the future--it was at the same time impos!ible to get paper from other sources in the open market, because many of the publi!hers of national magazines had either purchased paper mills or had acquired control of them For the future , nothing can be predicted as to increased supply. The count""- as a whole is still under-producing by millions of tons annually, w ith demand far exceeding suppl, As a con seq uence, there have been great increases in paper prices. with paper worth in other times eight or nine cents a pound now lifteen or sixteen cent!.

For the immediate future, there. is every prospect of an increase in the cost of paper, until such time as production return! to normal, and we can only keep our costs down as far U llO!sible from issue to issue. It will certainly not be possible to plan for any such expansion of our work as the publication of a Directoty---e.lthough a new one is 50 badly needed that it must be kept in mind u a project of lint priori ty on Our list We might be considerin", whether or not

we want ow next dUectOlJ to go to a1J our mai1.inA: list, which at present is

Following another Convmtion we would like to cccommend a radical change in the Information MI.ow. The ooe for last JHf cost eoticel, too much for the in spite of beinA: printed in the cheapest possible way. on decidedly inferior paper.

For the future. the Editor " ' Quid like to recommend:

1. That .U officers' reports, es:cePtioR those of the Grand the Grand Vice·Presideot , and th e Settlement School Committee, be dr.utically limited in length,

2. That the reports of chapter delcAates be mimeographed ( or printed, if that should tum ou t to be better ) fo r distribution at Convention, with enouAh copies for all chapters and .Iumne clubs in addition

3. That reports of Grand Council and other national officcn be also mimeographed for Convention distribution., as well as later publiation in THZ Anow.

It has the priviJc'lc of the Editor to bave the usual conblcts WIth the National Historian, and it is a pleasure to record that Mrs. Simmons has taken over her work in fine fashion. Her tUk of receiving and assembling the materia! has hem a heavy one; and she has besides been authorized by Grand Council to accept invitations to be guest speaker with severa.l alumnae club ,'tatberings, where she has spoken deli,'thtfully of the historical aspect of the Fraternity. The Editor strongly recommends that this policy be continued

The publicity committee has been at work too, as will be shown in Mrs. Cowan's report.

The Boolc came out in May, even earlier than we had hoped , .nd it does credit to its compiler, Dorothv Vile Durand, to whom .l:toe1: credit also for many of the fine Dart urangements of songs which are included. I ts format is pleasing, and usable, .nd it should .dd much to the charm of our chapter singing. It was a matter of regret that its paper was of an inferior Quality, hut it was the best available, and

since only an editioo. of 3000 was ordered, it is hoped that for a second print..io.A a better grade of paper may be available.

During the Spring, the Editor was privileged to make chapter visiu to Arizona A. New Mexico A., California B, r, and 4 a.nd Nevada A; to visit clubs at Tucso n, Albuquerque, South Coast. and Glendale; and to spealc at Founders' Day celebrations with the alumor around San Francisco Bay and California Beta at the Officus ' Oub at MoHett Field; with Los Angeles and Santa Monka at • luncheon at the HoU,· wood ROO$("\'elt Hotel; with Pasadena at • banquet at the South Puadena Woman's Oub; with South Coast at a luncheon meeti ng at' the home of three sisters, all Wisconsin A, Mrs . Bigelow, Mrs. Gillis, and Miss Iva Welsh; and with San DieAO, a t a dinner meeting at the Dew home of Maxine Harrill Stanford To all these wonderful Pi Phis, the Editor gives gatdul appreciation.

The editor cannot be sufficiently grateful enough to the faithful Allow staff who malce possible the finished magazine; and to her contact members in the Banta Publishing Company, especially to Mr. Harold Bachmann, who works so hard foc THE AllRow and has such interest in its production.

Many Pi Phis have helped in the production of THB Anow by sendin,:r; contributions and clippings; these have come specially from Grand Council, with Miss Onken as always our best source of material, and from the contributors staH, to which we have recently welcomed two new members, Martha Gittins B r icker. of 0aIc Ridge, Tennessee, and Georgia Guback Sideriw, of Connecticut.

It has been a matter of real regret this year that the necessity for cutting the magazine to 88 pages for the last two issues has meant omission of most of this fine material.

It has been as always a great privilege to serve the Fraternity, especially in the delightful meetings w i th Pi Phis the country over.

D en ver, Col orado

WE HAVE examined the balance sheet o f Pi Beta Phi Fraternity as of July 31,1947, and, t:xcep t as stated in the fo llowing paragra ph, the statements of fund transa ctions for the year then ended, have reo viewed the system of internal control and th e accounting procedures of the Fraternity, and, without mak· ing a detailed a udit of the transactions, have ex · amined or tested accounting records of th e Fraternity and other suppo r tin$t evidence by method s and to th e extent we d eeme d appropriate. OUf examinati on was made in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards applicab le in the circumstances and included all procedures which we consider ed necessary.

We did no t exam in e the cash transactions of the general fu'nd s for the peri od August I, 1946 t o O ctober 3 1, 1946, inclusive, but understa nd that such transact i o ns w e re examined by Edward W.

DIRECTOR OF RUSHING AND PLEDGE TRAINING

CONVENTION the title of this office fr om Assistant t o the Grand President to Director of Rushing and Pledge Training and made it a membl!r of Grand Council. It has been a real inspiration to have become a member of this executive body and to have the of working closely with such fine women as make up ou r Grand Council.

The responsi bilitv of this office has inc reased but iu duties remain more or less the same as under the office of Assistant to th e Grand President. 1t has meant much to have continued t o work closely with Mi ss Onken , and there ace not words to express true appreciati on of her wo nd erfu l understanding and assistance, and admiration (or her great ability.

The Director of Ru shing and Pledge Trainin.': sent out two qu est ionnaires to rush captains and two to superv isors in the course of the last co ll ege }·ear. ThrouJith them she was able to follow the work: o f these office r s and at the same time as k their advice abo ut desired changes in th ei r manuals, in the oul· line for pledge training, and so o n From the splendid cooperation from thes e officers it i s hoped much can be accomplished throuR;h their

I t is hoped , t oo, th at fr om answers contained on the questionnaires t o chapt e r del eR;a t es after the las t con· vention, plans f or i mprovement in the manual and in o rgani zation. can be deve loped some of the lin es s uggested. Manv valuable sUIZR;est i ons we r e receive d and a survey o f these sUAAestions has bee n comp iled by the Directo r of Ru sh ina and Pledge Trainina. At Con ven tion it was decided to do away with the annual fraternitv examination. However, it was felt that some prO,l;!;ram must be fo llowed and to this end an outline was prepared by this office which jf com· p letely foll owed , would cover the r eadi ng of the Con· stitution, the Chapter Manual. the required meetin gs, an d so on Th ese prOJU'ams were pl aced in the hand s of th e censors und er the direction of th e chapter president. We have, also , been trying to work out a Pi Phi Night Progra m, inspired b y D ea n leonard' s fl ne of a few years ago. Thi s plan is still

Tunder development, but with the help of material submitted this sprin.R; by the censors it is hopN that a definite outline will be ready for regular Pi Phi Ni.R;hts this fall

The Director of Rushing and Pl edge Training has also been work in g on a revised Manual for Prov in ce Pr esidents. The material will be discussed at this sum · mer's meeting which it is her pri vi lege to orR;anize as it was her privilege to cond uct the pre- and post · co nvention meetings of the Province Presidents last summe r

There is the requirement of health certifica tes for all employees ha nd ling food in Pi Phi chap ter houses The checking- of these certificates comes und er this office.

Since thi s officer li ves in Canada. it has been h er responsibilitv to ba nk the Canadian funds from chap· ters and clubs in Canada. This is a somewha t arduou s ta sk at times but very in teresti nR; .

Th e Tear has passed all too qui ckly and was made particular l y pleasant by visits to th e chapters in Eta Province. From be$ti nning t o end the days spe nt in that provi nce we re i nd eed happy ones . The Director of Rushin,Q; and Pl edR;e Traini n g cannot begin to put int o words what it meant to be with the chapters in Wisconsi n a nd Ill i nois and to meet so many fine alumna!. It was an added p leasure to visit th e Grand President , and, also. the Director of Central Office, whose inva luab le h e lp ca n never be mea sured

A ve ry happy occasion was this officer's informal v is it to In d iana E. She wishes more chapter visits co uld be of that kind

Founders' D av was spe nt unofficially and very happi l y with O nt ar io B a nd the london Alumnr Cl ub at the kind invita ti o n o f Clara Sipherd. Alpha Wes t Province Preside nt

I t has been a wonderful year, and J wi sh to express here mv heartfelt thanks for this privilege of servin,R o ur fr aternity.

REPORT OF DIRECTOR OF ALUMN.IE EXTENSION

HIS year to the deep sa ti sfa ction of aga in working for the Frate rnity nationally. has been added the p leas ure of be in $t close ly assoc iat e d with th e members of Grand Council. Each one 's patience with the ignoran ce of a n ewly elected office r in a n ew ly c reat ed office has been boundless, and th e Directo r of Extension is m os t appreciative.

Alth oug h the duti es o f thi s office are those pe r· formed hereto f ore bv the Assis ta nt to th e Grand V ice· President, chieflv fosterin.Q; n ew clubs. superv is in.Q; mothe rs' clubs, and assis tin g the Grand Vice·Pres ident in a lumnz work. there was added the duty of checkin.R; on members delinquent in m eetinR; their 6nancial obl igations

Eight new clubs were chartered thi s year, of whi ch three are in G amma Province. These are N.C., Washington, D .C. Jun ior, and Du rham, N .C. The other five a r e Stamfo rd , Conn .• Knoxville, T e nn ., Dan ville, 111.. M c Al este r , Okla., and Rio Grande Valley, T ex. This is not the .R;reatest numb er to or· ganize in one yea r. and while it i s a satisfactory one, we hope th at next vear will produ ce still more.

Qu est ionAaires were mailed to the forty·seven M oth.

ers' C l ubs i n the fall, and twenty·eight were returned fi ll ed with the information requested. A few were acco mp a ni ed by letters. and I was impressed by th e app r eciati on vo iced in them for th e a ttention them bv the fraternity.

Chapter visits were f rightening to contemplate but an immense privi le.Q;e to m a ke . Theta Province chap· te rs wer e hostesses, varying in type, but never in quality, of their courtesy. Four were first on th eir ca mpu ses in sc holarship , and on l y one was fa r be low them.

It w as a n unu sua l pleasure to celebrate Fo unders ' D ay-s uccess ive lv- with four different chapte rs and a n eve n 'treater number o f clubs, as two additional clubs. Minn eaoo li s Tuni o r and S1. Paul. joined Minn eso ta A and Minn eapo lis Alumnz Club in their banquet. Again let me sav how much J have en joyed wo rk i ng as Directo r of Alumnz Extensio n, but as alwavs I have received fa r more benefit than I have given.

COUNSELOR FOR CHAPTER HOUSE CORP O RATI O NS

THE RE are at present 54 chapter house co rporati on s.

The treasurer of eac h corporation reports on January U on the finances fo r the last fiscal yea r. Each treasurer is bonded for $2,000.00, the bonds being purchased throuAh the Fraternity foe $5 .00 each. All reports and bond fees due Jan I, 1947 h ave been received. The finances of a ll corporations are in good conditi on.

The alurnnr officers of th e chapter house corporations give untirinjitiy of th eir time and energy that our chapters may have adeq u ate and attractive h omes. The cooperation of th e treasurers of these co r po rati ons in se nding reports is especia lly appreciated. They h ave not only sent r eports on finance but have answered qu es ti on naires on equipment a nd furnishings.

F o ur new co r porations have been organized durin.'!: the pa st year. M assachusetts B, In dia na E , and Ohi o E have all organized corporations and bought hom es. Florida A's new corporation is building a unit o f a

Pan hellenic group.

Correspondence is being carried. on with New Mexico A, New Y ork r , and Montana A concerning future housing plans

Almost all of the chapter houses are ove r crowded bu t this seems necessary at this time of great h o u sing need on all campuses. It means that m o re must be spent on repair and up-keep and our corporations ar e seeing that houses and furni shings are in as good repair as possible.

It is inte resting and gra tifying to watch mortgages decrease i n size eac h year and finally disappear. There are n ow 17 houses free from debt, Nebraska B, California a and Ohio A being added. to the Jist. Mortgages on other houses have been decreased. in amount, thus maki ng the year a succes sful one financially for a1l chapter house co rp ora tions

THE NATIO NAL HIST O RIAN

A PTER reading and grading aU semester histories, rl.. written by the active ch apter s o f the fratern ity for the year 1946-47, the N a tional H isto ri a n announces the aw ard o f the Nita Hill Stark Vase to Kan sas A. chapter f o r the history written by Joan Gardner and Barbara Hume. The awa rd was made on the basis of: (1) diligence in fo ll owi ng alJ man ua l requirements as to f orm, c o ntent deadlines, and carbo n copies, (2) alertness in preserving the greatest quantity of interesting items, and ( 3) discernment in presentinJ;; the above material in such a way as to record the most significant phases of chapte r and campus life

Honorabl e mention goes: t o the Kansas Band Illinoi s B-a histories, prepared by Doris Brewer and Thro Housh r espectivel y, for the most art istic presentation of mate rial ; and to the N ew M exico A and Connecticut A hi stories for good gen e r a l presentation o f material.

A num be r of chapter histories were in e ligible for competiti on because of failure t o f oll ow ma nual r eo quirements.

This re po rt covers on Iv a few month s. since the National Hi st orian co ntinu ed t o serve as Holt H ouse committee chairman until the new committee was formed on February first. She did n ot take ove r th e files , or th e duties of H is t orian until the month of Februarv.

Since February first she hu devoted most o f her time to the tas k of sorting and inventoryinit the chapter semester histories submitted from 19 38 until th e present time. The permanent fil es now contain 1 t '0 carbon copies of these histories. Approximatelv 262 histories in chapter archives, are ready f or mailinp; and wi ll be returned to cha pter historians as soo n as houses: are reopened and new officer lists au: available. Fifty-five histories had a lready been returned to chapters before colleges dosed in Jun e.

A number of dippings concerning the life of Carrie Chapman Catt have been rectived from Sophie Parsons Woodma n, New Yorlc: A, and fr om other members o f the fraternity.

In response to the requests of various alumnr dub members. the National Historian has been pleased to assemble data from the History, to be used in the prepanation of aJummr dub programs .

It was a very Areat privi lege to attend the March meetings of both the Tu lsa and Muskogee alumnr clubs, where talks were gi ve n on the lives of the Founders. At that time it was possible to have a most helpful i nterview with Frances Rosse r Brown, fo rm er Natio na l Hi st ori a n . whose great love for the frat e rni ty is at aU times inspiring

The National Hi sto rian is grateful to Grand Council and to the a lumn te dubs for the h on o r of attending Dve Founders ' nay dinn ers a nd Juncheo DJ during th e month of April. The In dia napolis State n ay luncheon, attended bv five hundr ed actives and alum nr, was almost as impressive as a co nvention ba nquet While in Ind ianapo li s, the opportunity to ffllew acquaintance and to discuss f rate rnity duti es wit h Mrs Wild, the Grand Vi ce- Presid ent, was most he l pful. The large and beautiful Evanston luncheon of the Chicago area council and I1linois Epsilon O1apter will be long remembered. The Historian enjo yed her visi t to the house on the Northwestern campus Th e bea ut if ul dinners a t Manhattan and Lawrence,. Kansa s, offered an opport unity to renew old friendships and to note the ach ieveme nts o f those two fine cha pters . Along with the above visits, the Nati onal Historian was able to attend a cooky-shine w ith the members of her own Kansas City alumnI! club for the fifteenth successive reu.

Th e office of Nationa l Historian o ffer s an opportunity to observe the loyal and untiring efforts of Pi Phis, you ng and old, in every year, fr om the date of the FoundinR to the Dresent time The r«ord of their accomp lishments is truly an incentive. So worthwh ile and interesting are the duties of her office, that the National Hi storian regrets that there is not more time i n each day to g ive to the work.

To a ll the members of Grand Council, whose loyalty and cooperation are a source of strength to each officer of the fr aternity; and especially to M iss Onken, Mrs . Wild, and Mrs Alford , for their encouragement and assistance, the National Histori.n expresses her sincere appreciation. She will not soo n forget the man y favors extended bv the D irector of Central Office., Purdum Felmlev, in the mimeographing and mailing of certain documents

Reports of Province Presidents

ALPHA PROVINCE EAST PRESIDENT

WITH the excellent help of my predecessor, Hazel Everett's c«ords and explanations and the prompt responses to my S.O.S requests of Miss Onken and Mrs. Felmley, the year's work with Alpha East Province bas been pleasant and, I hope, pro6table Out two goals have been (1) improving scholuship and (2) attaining the standards set for the Balfow Cup; these in tum aiding individual members '5 they leave college, to assume the responsibilities of educated women, eqwpped with knowledge. executive ability, and social adequacy.

The scholarship of every chapter except one has been raised. and that one i.5 close to the top. Nova Scotia A has no official rating yet, but tactful inquiry indicates that it is sti ll above AJpha Gamma Delt., its only rival on the Dalhousie campus. Maine A has first place on its campus, having won the Panhellenic Scholarship cup for the year and having an average just below the honor societies and above all men's and women's groups. Vermont A, Vermont B , and Con· necticut A.. are aU in third place on th eir respective campUJeS. Massachusetts A.. has no official rating yet, but individual marks have risen. M assachusetu B has risen from sixth to fifth place at the University of Massachusetts (the new title proudly a.cquired by Massachusats State College) _ The province bas purchased a scholarship plaque to be awarded an· nuaUy to the chapter highest on its campus each year, according to the Pi Beta Phi formula. Nova Scotia A is the rust winner. Connecticut A has 7 r X E (similar to • B K) including president and vice president; Maine A.. and Vermont B each have one 4t D K. Maine A has ) • K +s , Massachusetts B 1. Con· necticut A and Vermont B each have one 2: X. Ver· mODt B has one Magna Cum Laude, 1 Cum Laude. All chapters contributed to Settlement School aDd Loan Fund, and all but one to Holt House.

PanbeJlenic relations at each college are f deadly. University of Connecticut AJumoz Panhe llenic made a survey of rushing procedures in colleges and 32

made recommendations to the active Panhellenic, with the result that first week cushing wiU be tried next (all. Univers ity o( Massachusetts is trying second semester rushing not year. University of Maine and Middlebury are still groping (or a satisfactory system. Vermont B is satisfied with their system of late rushing and pledging near Christmas time. Massachusett s is well satisfied with its early cushing and one lovely party preceding early pledging, thus eliminating the evils encountered sociaJly and scholastically willi deferred cushing.

The province winner of the Amy Burnham Onkea award is Edith Gordon, Vermont A. It was exceedingly difficult to judge the winner among such candidates as Lois Ricker, Maine A: Esther Coffin. Ma.s.sachusctts B; Cornelia Robinson, Connecticut A ; Gretchen Manning, Vermont B; Katherine MacLean, Nova Scotia A ; Marilyn Meserve, Massachusetts A. Jane Atwood, Vermont B, won the Portland Club award for outstanding sophomore presented by the Portland Alumnz Club.

My visits to the chapters started in October and finished in March. Each trip tausht me something new. and added to my pride in oue fine members. For the interested alumnae and particularly the AdVLsolJ Committees. 1 have great admiration and praise. We owe them much; yet I suspect their greatest rewud is in Reing their chapters grow and prosper under their wise guidance. I am looking forward to the conference at GatJinbwg, and the chapter presidents' COD · ference in Boston in September to bring us .U added pleasure and benefit

HlS past year has been • most happy and gratifyins one in this Province. I fed that there have been many nne accomplishments in the chapters. It is hard to believe that the yeat is at an end and that it is now time to review the fine progress made. Nearly all of the campuses have adjusted themselves back to a normal schedule, but all report an .bnormally high registration and very crowded clal5rooms and living conditions.

All of my visits were completed before the Ouist· mas holidays. ]t was indeed a pJeaswe to have met all of the members of the five chapters and their .Iumnz advisory committees and chaperones. I returned home with a real sense of pride in what they are all doing and in the loyalty and pride in the fraternity which was so evident.

The Province boasts of one first place on its campus in scholarship, Ontuio A, and one second place on campus, New York r. I feel that all chapters are striving hard to raise their scholarship standing and that definite gains have been made this year.

The Amy Burnham Onken Award for the Province went to Ruth McDougald of Ontario A.

The active chapters of the Province are very happy to have a share in the work of the Save the Child Federation. Letters have been going to our little French boy, Marc Berthier, and the chapters are planning to send parcels of much needed articles and clothing soon.

All of the five chapters own their own houses and a total of 94 girls make the Pi Beta Phi HOUR their home. The chaperons are 6ne efficient women. We are very sorry to lose Mrs Anita Eastwood from New York r; she is retiring after ten years of splendid service and devotion to that Chapter. Last winter, Mrs. Eastwood was given membership in Pi Beta Phi. We are losing another very fine chaperon at New York A; she has been with us only one year, but has endeared herself to the girls in the chapter. Both vacancies have already been filled by women who have come very highly recommended.

Membership in seven honoraries has been reported by New York r, one by New York A, and ten by New York A. There are no honoraries at either the University of Toronto or University of Western Ontario.

The extra-curricular achievements in the Province have 1>«0 outstanding. Ntw Yor.i Alpha has the President of Student Union. President of University Chorus, Secretary of W.A A., 2 junior and 4 senior guides in the Women's Student Government. The chapter holds 29 executive positions on campus. New Yo,. Gamma has done some outstanding work

in dramatics this year. Three girls have had leads and four have had minor roles in campus productions. Two Pi Phis have been chosen for the St. Lawrence University Summer Theatre. Three are cheer leaders. They have the Secretary of W.A.A. Twenty-five girls are active in both W.A.A. and in sport activities. Twenty-one &irIs are active in publications. A mem o ber of the chapter is Business Manager of "Scarlet Saint," and two others hold offices on the same publi. cation. One member was tapped for Kalan this Spring. New Yo,.k Della holds 13 offices in Women's Self· Governing Association, Art Editor and Assistant Women's Business Manager of the Year Book "Cor· nellian" and one member on the Editorial Board . Th.ree are on Student Government. The girls are active in sports and dnmatics. 01114,.;0 Alpha has the President of the Women's Undergraduate Association, two year presidents in the same organization, as well as three on the W.U.A. o:ecutive. Thirteen are active in dramatics. Fow have carried leading roles in University productions and a large number have partici· pated in productions. The chapter has the treaswer and .second year president of Medical W.U.A.• and the treasurer of W.A.A. Twenty girls have played on teams and there is a great deal of interest in sports. Seven are active in publications. Twenty-five are active in campus clubs. Four girls bave received Honour Crests from the University this Spring. The Mademoi.selle Magazine representative for the Uni · versity of Toronto campus this year is a Pi Beta Phi. On/ario Bela has the sub·prefect, hiShest office fo r a woman on the campus, President of Women's Council President and Vice-President of W A.A. They the Captain of the Inter-Collegiate Swimming team. In a recent and successful wate.r follies, n % of the participants were Pi Beta Phis. The girls hold 23 executive positions on campus.

The Province was honored and greatly assisted by visits from Lucile Carson, ow Grand Secretary. She visited all the chapters in March and each ch'pter has written to tell me how much her visit meant to them in inspiration, in helpful advice, and in deepened understandjng of our fraternity We were delighted to have her with us.

I wish to express my appreciation for the fine work done by the Advisory Committees in the Province, and for the excellent service which the chaperons are rendering in the Chapters. Without the services of these two groups of women and their fine cooperation with the chapters, the Province could never have had such a successful year. Praise and thanks go to the many fine officers in the chapters.

To Miss Onken and the membus of Grand Council, as always. I feci deep gratitude for the support nd encouragonent which they give at all times.

May the Summer bring to all Pi Beta Phis much

Shappiness and • bright hope for the new year ahead of us.

BETA PROVINCE PRESIDENT

lNelI Mrs. Carson's entgnalion as Beta Province President the active chapters have been under the supervision of two Province Presidents who were inexperienced in this particular phase of fraternity work and I think that the girls should be commended for the way in which they have adjusted themselves to two new personalities and have given the best cooPfiation possible under any circumstances. This has been a good year for the chapters and they have expressed th emse lves as pleased with the accomplish. ments it has brought as well as stimulated to do even better next yeu.

lt took me from November to April to complete the chapter visits, and in each cue I left the girls feeling that Pi Beta Phi had given me a great privilege as well as a responsibility It was indeed stimulating to meet the many differ ent types of girls as well as the interested and faithful Alumna: who give so much of their time and enthusiasm so that the chapters may continue to hold a high place on the campuses. I sincerely appreciate the many courtesies extended to me and the devotion to Pi Beta Phi which I eocoun· tered everywhere.

Pi Phis ale active on all of the campuses and it wou ld be impossible to give credit for every activity and honor in which the girls are represented. The following will suve, ] hope, to indiC2te the type: of representati on which they have. P,nnsylvania Bela has two in Mortar Board and the same two will live in Honor House next year. Two girls were section editors for the year book, the Women ' s Student Gov't Social Chainnao, three were named to Who' s Who, one was President of the Women's Athletic Association, also Chairman of May Day, two are in Pi Delta Epsilon, five were candidates for Be2uty Queen, with ODe girl being crowned May Queen. One girl was President of the Student Faculty Congress, while others were active in prepa ring Radio programs and assisting in the advertising division of the station Pen"sylvan;a Gamma bad the Queen of the Mid· winter Ball. the Sec'y of the Women's Athletic Asso-ciation, pianist for the Choral Cub, Co-Editor of the Microcosm. Sec'y·Treasurer of the Spanish Club, a class treasurer, the Sec'y of the Student Senate, Presi· dent of the little Theater, Vice-President and Treas· uter o f T .6.

Scholastically it has heen the experience of all chapters that grades we re considerably lower the first semester and all have worked hard to improve their standing for the second semester. Pennsylvania B was first in scholarship the first semester. and Ohio B was first among the averages published the second semester. Ohio d has achieved fourth place, a con· siderahle gain for them as well as an inspiration to go to the top Six or nine weeb grades have shown a de.6n.ite improvement over the first s and all of the chapters who found lower in the list than they had exp<Cted are hopeful that their efforts wiU bring more satisfactory results.

Five of the chapters do not occupy houses but have either a room in a dormitory or an apartment. Pennsylvania B is having their suite redecorated so that it will be ready for use in the faU, Ohio B is proud

of the gift of • new combination radio from the Mothers' Club, Pennsylvania r ha.s completed the and refurnishing of the apartment. Ohio B is proud of the .ppotrance of the chapter house, due to redecorating done under the direction of the AJumnr House and West Virginia A baJ also had some improvements made to the lower Boor, and is proud of the new silver and coffee service given by the Mothers' Ouh. The housemothen have given their best to the welfare oE the girls, and it is with regret that we learn of the resignation oE Miss Hud Hart at Ohio B. Her years of service there were of great value to the fraternity and her gracious manner made her a perfect hostess for the chapter.

All of the chaptO'l were contributors to the Loan Fund, Settlemmt School, and Holt House in varying degree'S. Ohio A's pledges worked on a project which netted them $1 SO.OO which they gave to Settlement School. The chapters were also actively interested in the welfare of our Province chiJd and sent her indio

Ovid ual paruges as well as money.

Jeanne Reinhardt of Ohio A was the Province candi· date for the Amy B OnJc:co award. She is ODe of the most OlItst2.ndi n,IJ gitu to have come to the Ohio University ampw and well deserving of the bonoe, though all of the chapter candidates represmtN the very best in Pi Phi

The AJum.nr Advisory Committees have been exceptionally beJpfuJ and I woo to thank tbc:m foe their coopen.tioo with the .ctiyC cbapten aDd me. To Miss Onken lowe the greatest pttSOO.a.l debt for her eoCOUntgcmeot wd guidance through this fust year, and J also want to apress my appreciation to the PrOYiocc Vice-president. Edith Rankin, for her helpfulness. This has been an experience which has brought to me conviction that Pi Beta Phi stands at the to p by virtue of its remukable inBuence for good in the lives of all who have come within its bonds.

GAMMA PROVINCE PRESIDENT

Ull year in Gamma Province really began with Convention at Swampscott. for: Convention, after: so long an interim, was really a new beginning and not a ClimlX to the year's work. It was there that Gamml delegates and representatives came to Ic.now each other, to work together on the things in which they were interested, and to appreciate the stro ng and weak points. the attainments and the difficulties of each other's chapter I feel that 1 was fortunate in being at Convention, for at the time of election, I had already become fast friends with the girls from Gamma Province with whom J was to work during this year. I fa ced the year with fear and trembling, for , as Laureda Wakefield's successor, I had much to live up to She had accomplished much in the way of cooperation, fca.olc.ness, honesty and mutual faith with the chapters; I was anxious that these things continue. I was also determined that the chapters continue to work toward the goals which she had sd.: good chapter relations on campus, strong relations within the chapter and convention.

Convention friendships wete coqtinued in summer letters and renewed early in the fall through further correspondence; many Gamma Gals came througb Ba.ltimore on their way back to college to spend the night and rehash problems. Most of the chapten got off to an C%Cellent start. I wanted to make my chapter visits early so that I wouJd know the girls and the chapters with whom J would be deal ing throughout the year. six of my visits were made in October and November; two, in January. I was fortunate in being able to Maryland B again officially when it moved into the new house, and every other chapter again unofficially exce pt North Carolina B and South Carolina A who were on spring vacation when I went through Durham and Colwnbil in April.

The Greek world of Gamma Province bas been a little smoother this year as fir as anti·fraternity agitltion goes. Last year foue out of eight chapters experienced difficulty. This yeu, Maryland A still kn ocks its head against the stone wall of ad.m.inistrative opposition, but is swviving; North Carolina B has had I quiet year but the campus sits on a keg of dynamite that may go off aDY moment with Inde-

pendents noticeably winning far more elections and high honors than ever before and with groups of freshmen who aIe considered fraternity material decluing themselves not interested in rushing; South Carolina A experiences no trouble at the moment with the newly organiud Independent group proving or disproving nothing; and Virginia A had a Utopian rushing season with aJI but freshmen pledging, app r ox imately 9:5% of the student body in fraternities, and no Eurther agitation.

Two chapters began the year with housing problem s o f a serious nature-Maryland A. without rooms of any kind and unable to meet on campus because of administntive opposition; Maryland B without a house, balding meetings in classrooms and impatiently waiting for the Uni vers ity to finisb building the promised chapter house. We end the year with Mary _ land A hoping to hold 00 to the rooms they finally found in December at In outrageous rent; Muyland B SdtIed at last in a new and atremdy attractive home; but North Carolina A. facing the "buy o r get out" problem and expect.ing to go into the PalI without a house unless the Sorority Court plan is approved by the legislature and they can begin to build. 11>0 others ate comparatively safe fcom this post·...,u problem: D C. A. still with their attractive apartmcot in a building with several other fraternities, Virginia r in their attnctive bouse, Virginia A. with their cute cottage io " the Pines," North Carolina B with then lovely room in Panhellcnic HoUSC', and South Car0lina A. with their room in Sims Dormitory.

Gamma ended the fust term with four out at eight chaptets in first place schoiasticaJly: Maryland A., Virginia A., Virginia r, for the third consecutive time, and North Carolinl A, for the consecutive time Maryland B and South Carolina A still can get DO official averages or comparative ratings; we fear that if they did. the two chapters would not show up too well. D. C. A. and North Carolina B both went down a place or two. Virginia A's was the most spectacular improvement, since th2t chapter was in Jast place out of eleven fraternities last June and came up to 6rst in one brief term! Mary land A's jump was from fourth to first. There were many actives and pledges on Dean's Lists; eight actives made 4> B K this spring:

Maryland ,&-2; D. C. A-I; Virginia r - l; North Carolina A-3; North Carolina B-1.

The Province Amy Burnham Onken Award went to Margaret "Goochic" Tayloe, North Carolina B, who has served this year as President of Student Government at Duke and who made 4J B K in her junior year. The other candidates were: Dolly Coultas, Maryland A, also Student Organization President and ct B X; Barton Hall, Maryland B; Jean Prichard, D.C. A., chapter president and '" B K; Flo Mitche ll , Virginia A, Vice-President of SGA; Fran Moore, Vicginia r, Chairman of Honor Council and pledge supervisor; Carlisle Cashion, North Carolina A. President of YWCA and ct B K; and Mary Shoun, South Carolina A, first woman editor of the USC campus newspaper and chapter president. It was rea lly a hard job to choose one girl out of eight fine candidates The whole Province has its fingers crossed for " Goochie" whose spectacular college and fraternity career makes her an excellent candidate for the National Award.

We have instituted two new Province Awards: a plaque to be awarded to the chapter highest in scholar· ship in the Province, and a plaque to be awarded to the best "all·round" chapter in the Province-the lat· ter based on the same things as the Balfour Cup is based nationally. The two plaques have inspired friendly competition and rivalry The awards are not to be made until June scholarship averages have been received.

Convention also inspired the desire for some kind of get-togethers within the Province and the result was three joint Found ers ' Day Banquets. 1 was for. tunate to be able to attend two of the three. Mary· land A, Maryland B, and D.S. A met in Washing· ton, D.C on Saturday, April 26, with the two Washington alumna: dubs, the Baltimore alumn;e dub, and alumnr from College Park, Md ., and Wilmington, Del. Maryland A's fiftieth year gave th e theme for the program and certificates of the Order of the Golden Arrow were presented. Dr. May Keller, President Emeritus of Pi Beta Phi, gave a charming and delightful talk about the Founders. About three hundred Pi Phis attended and th e three active chapters did some special singing; the active chapter presidents performed the candle·lighting ceremony. Virginia r enterta.ined Virginia A for Founders' Day in Wil · liamsburg; Virginia A hired busses and arrived in town for the weekend. Virginia r members played the perfect hostesses getting their sisters dates and finding them beds for the night. 1 was with fifteen Virginia rs and fifteen Virginia As at the chapter house and we held an all·night bulling and singing session until daybreak finally drove us to bed. The Banquet was held at noon on Sunday, April 27, with Williamsburg, Richmond, and Norfolk alumna: present; the singing was fine; the cand le·lighting ceremony ably done by Virginia r ' s new initiates. North Carolina A played bost to North Carolina B and to Chapel Hill, Durham and Raleigh alumn::e on April 16 during Miss Onken's visit, and Founders" Day was celebrated then. South Carolina A wanted very much to join in on this occasion; the invitation was issued and the arrangements made when South Carolina A had to decline because of the high cost of ttansportation They held their own banquet with their alumnr in Columbia

The Grand President visited six of the eight chap.. ters in the Province during April. The inspiration and help that she gave each chapter is obvious, and I can

already see the tangible results of her suggest ion s. I feel that I was fortunate to be able to meet with her also at the time of her visi t to Mar yland A; we could have used far more time discussing Province problems.

The chapters in Gamma Province were first to be 100% this year; all contributions were in by the end o f November. Some of the chapters have made addi. tional contributions, especially after the Holt House appeal. Several of the chapters have had Arrowcraft Sales and profits in some cases have gone to Settle· ment School. Magazine commissions were earned by each chapter for the Settlement SchooL

The Province was blessed with exceptional hou semothers, all of whom will rem ai n with us next year: Maryland B-Mrs. H. H. Manchester, called "Pete" by the girls; Virginia r -Miss Beatrice Beveridge, better known as " Miss B"; and North Carolina AMrs. Sedalia G old, our old faithful "Mamma G ." I cannot begin to estimate how much their assistance and cooperation has meant to me.

The Province is prominent in activities on every one of the eight campuses. One or two chapters do community work as well. We have had two Student Government Presidents this year: Dolly CouLtas, Maryland A, and Goochie T aylo r , North Carolina B ; and ' also two Honor Council Chairmen: Elaine Lonn· quest, Maryland A, and Fran Moore, Virginia r. Spring elections have given us two Student Govern· ment Presidents for next year: Nancy Tucker, Vir· ginia A and Shirley Sprague, Virgini a r. Twenty actives are in Mortar Board or hon ora ri es similar to Mortar Board: Maryland B-1; D. C. A--4; Vir· ginia A-2; Virginia r-2 ; North Carolina A-4; North Carolina B-2; and South Carolina A-5.

6utstanding activities and honors are given here for each chapter; the list is by no means a complete picture of participation. I have tried to chose those things which are considered most important by the chapters.

DELTA PROVINCE PRESIDENT

N THE first year as a prov in ce pr es ident of Pi Beta Ph i, it has been mos t int e restin g and inspiring to be ab le to know 10 work with the eight chapters in this province. Du e to ci rcum sta nces beyo nd control, chapte r visits had to delayed until the seco nd semesle r The insp i ratio n gained fro m these vi sits will a lways be a cherished memory and if the Delta Province Presid ent has been ab le to return a little of the enthu s ias m and inspiration given her by the chaplers, she will feci Ihat her efforts have n ot been in vain.

On the whole, the chapters in the province have been functioning smoo thly thi s past year. Our emphasis has been o n scho lar ship and in many instances we have experienced the great pleasure and satisfaction of seeing improvm1ent in this field. M ichigan B was thrilled to learn that it had won the coveted first place on the campus fo r the year 1945 -46

No ratin gs are available for the first semester of thi s year, but they have continued to work hard to keep that rating. I ndiana A came up from third to first p lace at th e e nd of the first semes te r, while Michigan A step ped up from third to secon d pl ace, and Michigan r, fr om fifth to t hird place. Michigan A had seven members of E d A, sc holasti c hon o rary at Hill sda le, and h ad t hree membe r s wh o made an A average this year . Mi chigan B had f our 4J B Ks and four cIJ K <h. Eight members o f the chapter were membe rs of A A d One member of this chapter won the .$750 Ali ce Uo yd Graduate Fellowship_ Michigan r had thr ee members of 41 K • and two pledges were chose n for T owe r Guard, sophomo re scholastic honorary. In diana B had one of 4» B K and two elections to A A d in additio n to a winnet of one of two scholarships given by Panhellenic to organized girls with the highest average. India na r had two

freshmen elected to • X N, scholastic hODorary, and six to Spurs, scholastic and activities organization. AU the chapters io the province award the scholarship ring and io addition make many oth er awards such as those for improvement, highest avet4 ages in the house, highest averages among the pledges , etc. Except for one or two cases, the scbolanhip chairmen have been most coopecative.

With the exception of Indiana A which occupies a suite of rooms in the girls' dormitory, aU the chapters are living in their own homes this year. Michigan A's house is owned by the college, but the chapter hu been in this same house for many yean. Micbigan r bought an old house quite near the campus and are happy that they could find some place to occupy until the time when they can build 00 tbe lots which have been bought and are DOW completely paid for. Indi ana E purchased an old home over 100 years old and have made a very attractive pilce in which to Jive for the present. Howevu, this and Michigan r s are not large enough to house all the girls and the Indiana Es are especially crowded. Your province president is hoping that it will not be too many years before these chapters can build adequate homes, Indiana B occu pies one of the loveliest homes on the campus and it was further beautified this past year by re-decoration inside and out. Indiana 1"s home is small but very attractive and they are doi ng some decoratin g this summer. I.:ut year the recreation room and chapter room were done over and this year, it will be the first Boor that will benefit. Indiana .d's home is the new est in the province and is very pretty and adequate as to space and equipment. Michigan B's bome is completely paid for and is very attractive and bomeJ.ike

The Delta Province Amy Burnham Onken Award this year went to Jean Louise Hole of Michigan B and the province president had the pleasure of pre· senting it in person at the in itiation banquet in May. The other nominees were: Michigan A, Mary Lou Wathen; Michigan r. Jane Cade; Indiana A, Katherine Huffman; Indiana B, Jean Ma ney; Indiana r. Ann Gill; Indiana 4 , Elizabeth Holden; Indiana B. Martha Honan On Founders' Day, at Indianapolis the province president was privileged to present gifts from the Indianapolis club to the nominees frOm the five Indiana chapters, and to present the In diana Cup to Indiana B chapter.

All chapters reported successful rushing seasons. Quota systems are in effect on aU campuses except Hillsdale. Hillsdale, fraolclin , Butler and DePauw rush the first semestu, while Michi,ga.n., Michigan State, Indiana and Purdue have second semester rush Rules varied so at the diHerent campuses that it would be impossible to IUt them .U.

Delta Province chapters are 100% in their contribu· tions to the three fraternity prOjects, for a totaJ of $'" to the Settlement School, $80 to Holt Howe, $8S to the Loan Fund, and $6 to the Settlement School at Christmas to buy records In addition, the chapters did their share in supporting the Magazine Agency.

Indiana E f. laced secood in the IUt of highest commUs;on, LIId ourth 00 the list of highest per capita commissions. Michigan B placed S«'Ond on the list of highest percentage increase. With such a spleodid record, the

cbaptus were able to show • slight increase this year in total commissions.

All the chapters have improved in national viewpoint this year, due no doubt, to the inspiration of convention. Everywhere. chapter members commented 00 the wonderful convention reports that had given by tMir delegates. and many expressed the wish to attend. convention some time in the future.

Without exception, the Deans of Womm had onJy words of praise for the chapters in this province. This was most gratifying for it meant that the girls were cooperating with the administration and wac living up to the standards of the fraternity.

The alumna! advisory boards have been fine and have given much time and effort to their respective chapters. All enjoy close relations hips with their chapters and have been most cooperative with this officer.

It was a great pleasure to attend the Indiana State Luncheon in April, and to share with the Grand VicePresident, the National Historian, the Delta Province Vice-President and the National Supervisor o( Oupter Accountin& the inspiration that such a gathering can bring. Five Hundred and thrtt Pi Phis were prestot

LEWIS

EPSILON PROVINCE PRESIDENT

E happy indeed. to report that "Epsilone rs" have had a fine year o( real progress . Paced by the enthusiasm emanating from Convention we all settled down to concentrated effort to lick: our biggest problem--scholarship. From having no chapters rank· ing first last yea r we now have achieved first place for four of the six chapters in the province! !! Missouri B and Missouri r have each held first place for a full year, while Tennessee A and Mi ssouri A have reached the goal for the one semester reported to date, ending in February 1947. All of them intend to remain at the top, it goes without saying!

An chapters were 100% contributors to our cher· ished projects. In addition, all chapters raised through special effort an additional sum to go to Sett.lmlent School as a "Bonus" gift, an idea begun in this provo ince two years ago, and continued each year. Mis· souri A had a rummage sale, Missouri B had a dart booth at the school carnival, M issowi r had a bringa·dish supper for wbich C2ch guest paid a certain amount, Kentucky A rafRe.d off a pure·bred puppy at a school dance booth, T ennes5ee A. had a benefit bridge.

Of course we (aced our troubles too. Missouri A. stood. out courageously against pressure for second semester rushing and won to the extent that it was moved up to the second week·end after registIation. Missouri B finally succeeded in breaking the sorority political combine, and were able to help quell quickly the talk of second semester rushing. Missouri r's new system o( faculty sponsors needed adjusting to our system of fraternity secrecy, but finally it was ar· ranged that the sponsor atte nd some Pi Phi Nights and some chapter dinners instead of chapter mertings so everyone was happy.

Kentucky A.. is still standing out against campus political combines, and successfully too. for this yeat they one o( their membt'rs to Student Council by more votes than were received by any other candi· date. Tennessee A too, is continuing their fight aga.iost the same campus condition, and in the recent superlative election 'Won three of the four honors they

competed for-Miss University of Chattanooga. the Best·dressed Girl. and the Prettiest Girl. AU of whkh proves that elections can be bonest, as Missouri r two yea.rs ago. Tennessee A also resolutely led Panhellenics drastic revision of Rush rules.

The nominees for the Amy Burnham Onkm Awa..rd were Marilyn Wiegner of Missouri A, Martha Duobar of Missouri B who won the province award, Peggy Lusk o( M issouri r, Ann Hughes of Kentucky A, Marylen Smith of Tennessee A. and Jane Lee of Tennessee B.

My chapter visits this year had the added joy of the deepening $(tond-year friendships, both among the active! and among their alumnae advisors too. The warmth and cooperation o( the girls, the splendid understanding and support o( the Advisory Board members are things (or which I am truly grateful.

Epsilon Province bas won many campw bonors this year-the full list would of course bt' far too loog to print here I have tried to selett the most representa· tive for this report.

Also they had the Sweetheart of Sigma Chi, the Engineer's Queen, and a :Maid at the Beaux Arts Ball, and a Maid of the Hat chet Queen. Three of the 11 chosen for Mortar Board ace Pi Phi.

One was social chairman for the freshman class. Two won athletic letters. Since this chapter is on the quarter system the final exams are s till ahead of them at this writing, and so many honors, including scholastic ones remain to be announced.

Tennessee A rea ched first place in scholarship, stood firmly against the political combine and still made themselves (elt on campus. They had four offi. cers of the girl's dormitory, one being president. Seven were tapped for Co-Ed Cotillion, honorary social organization, and one was tapped for Alpha, honorary senior group.

Another is Secretary of the Spanish Club.

There will be further honors of all bnds reported too late for this report. I am so r ry that the scholastic honors are so late in coming in.

Each chapter in the province has planned its goals, and worked diligently toward them. 1t has been my privilege to help in whatever I could, and it has been my pleasure to applaud their progress.

Respectfully subm.itted,

ZETA PRO VINCE PRESID ENT

HlS year has been a highly successfu l one for Zeta Province (rom many standpoints. The unfailing cooperation and friendship of chapter officers and members have made the work of province pleasure and privilege In the past twelve months I have looked forwud to the next letter bringing a report of new honors and recent accomplishments. In the main Zeta Province chapters have had efficient officers and their strength has been reflected in the improvement seen in many ways. The inspiration of convention has been demonstrated in every chapter. The chapters show a broader national viewpoint and increased ambition for both chapter and the Fraternity.

Th e chapters have all been large this year, every chap ter, except Georgia A, having its full quota. Rushing was successful in every chapter and a large majority of the pledges were initiated leaving very few held-ova pledges. Florida r initiated its entire pledge group.

Florida B and Georgia A maintain chapter howes . Florida A and Florida r arc working on campaigns to raise funds for lodges. Florida A. will start their lodge this year. It is stiJl a dream of Florida r's but it is formulating plans so that this may be a realization as soon as building on the campus is permitted Florida B, with the assistance of their alumnz, is doing some major repa.ir work and redecorating their

house this summer. Alabama A enjoys and appreciates its nice chapter foom in the Womm 's Building on the campus . Every chapter lw given a beautiful formal daoce this year. have been greatly appreciated and enjoyed .fter the war years when such functions were not held. Teas and informal affairs have been given by every chapter for the chapter alumnae, and the at large, and they ha e been attempting to bring about clostr fcimdships with the other fraternities and nonfraternity groups on the campuses.

I regret to say that two chapters in the province have not contributed to the fraternity ' s national projects, it is possible that their contributions have been sent directly and I have not yet received the receipt. Florida A, Florida B and Florida r contributed generously to .11 projects. The chapten have been interested in our wac orphan and Georgia A sent ten dollars to the committee, and Florida r a package for her.

The Amy Burnham Onleen Award for Zeta Province went to Robin Hill Mushall, florida B. for her outstanding leadership on the campus, scholastic record and her service to Pi Beta Phi and her college. Her list of honors would be too loog to publish here for she has had recognitioo in many fields. The seniors from other chapters who were candidates for the award were: Anita CaJdwelJ, Florida A, Christine Elliot, Al.bama A, Mary Birchmore. Georgia A, aDd Ann Craver, Florida r. It was a difficult choice to select only one of these outstanding girls for they each have many fine honors and have given generously in service to the fraternity.

All chapters were visited by the province president this year. The three Florida chapters in December, Georgia in January and Alabama in April. I remember with pleasure the delightful chapter visits. The chapters greeted me warmly and entertained me graciously.

The Alumn2 Advisory Committees have given invaluable service to the chapters, giving the benefit of their in the solution of problems that do arise and in many instances handling these so that they do not become major problems I wish to exp ress my deep appreciation of their work and I hope together we may accomplish even next year.

There has been improvement in scholarship in the province, but there are DO rust places to announce Alabama A was first f or two quarters and fell to second during winter quarter . Florida r rose from eighth place to fourth this year. AU chapters have improved the chapter average and all chapters have moved up at least one place on the comparative list. These gains have been due to an interest in scholarship on the part of .11 members and reflect representative good grades cather than brilliant work on the part of a few With the interest in scho larship demonstrated this year severa l of the chapters shouJd attain first place next year. Alabama A has two B K (100% of the graduating class of this chapter ), and one at Florida B and one 4» K <to at Florida B Florida r had three members elected to Phi Society (equivalent to ell B K) and one chosen for president of this group. Christine Elliot. Alabama A, was chosen by the

faculty to be Valedictorian of her class.

Quistine Elliot and Polly Price, Alabama A, Robin Hill Marshall , Florida B were elected to Who's Who. The chapters in Uta Province have shone in extn.curriculU activities. All the chapters have participated in intra-murals with Florida B winning the cup for the year. Alabama A won the cup for the swimming m

As well as the chapters have done this past year they have only laid the foundation for greater accomplishments next year and I am confident we will see stronger and finer chapters in the province. It is impossible for me to adequately express my love for the five chapters of Zeta Provin ce. They have been • great source of inspiration to me, and I am proud of their accomplishments.

There are no words to thank :Miss Onken for her encouragement and no request for help, no matter how trivial, has ever been refused. To Grand Council Chairmen of Standing Committees, and Central Office I wish to say "thank you" for your unfailing assistance. I t has been a great pleasure and privi lege to represent Pi Beta Phi i n Zeta Province.

Respectfully submitted,

ETA PROVINCE PRESIDENT

I N THE second post-war year the chapters in Eta Province have demonstrated wel1 their ability to keep pace with the times and have achieved a de·

EDYTH BRETON TYLER

gress of excellence that is very pleasing.

The greatest delight of the year came with the chapter visits. It wa.s a wonderful opportunity to

spe nd a little time with each of the eight chapters and make personal contact with th e officers and members. The fine hospitality extended by the girls and th e friendly interest they showed will be held among choice fraternity memories. Everywhere the campus picture is about the same with dormitories and houses filled to classrooms crowded from early morning until late at night, and the landscape heavily camou8age with quonset huts. auto trailers, and mili. tary barraclcs to provide stude nt housing. Some peop le deplore these conditions, but I find it • nob le thing to have so many men and women in search of higher education and the institutions so willing to try and provide it Beloit College and Monmouth College both had splendid Dew women's r eside nce halls ready for use this year. At every school one heard of extensive building plans ready for application as soon as " building materials. labor etc."

Wisconsin r alone struggles along with a totalJy inadequate meeting place, because this year, for the first time in its long history, Illinois B d enjoys the use of the new and love ly Panhellenic House provided at Knox College. Illinois A meets in rooms provided on the campus and, of course. has the very special privilege of using Holt House for social affairs: Wisconsin Wisconsin B, Illinois E, IJIinois Z, and lllinois B all have handsome houses which meet the chapter needs. In every case the hou ses have been beautifully decorated and furnished, and some have had complete refurnishing this past year. The presence of fine chaperons adds greatly to the gra· ciousness and well being of each house. The frater· nity is grateful to these womm who so carefully tend the welfare of the active members. Illinois H is the only chapter who will have a new chaperon Qat fall.

This year each chapter has put its first emphasis on scholarship for the presence of competition from the male mind was certainly felt! Results were nearly a ll rewarding, and the individual averages of the girls are higher than they have been for some time. Some chapters abandoned supuvised study for their memo bers and others had very detailed study plans; the net result is that one chapter rests in the lower 2'% on its campus, two are in 6rst place. and the others all lie in the upper one third. Proudly I salute the two who pace the others in scholarship. Illinois Hand Wisconsin B!

It is a great satisfaction to say that in every chapter IUshing was superior. The wonderful pledges every· where added much to their respective groups and de6nitely assure a brilliant future for each chapter. This yeu Eta Province contributed nearly two hun· dred new actives to the fraternity.

Social, academic, and politicaJ honors came in legion to all chapters. Whenever grades permitted there has been 100% activity participation. The contribu· tions made 'by Pi Phis in lead«ship and spirit to their campus activities has added greatly to the prestige of the colleges and the fraternity. Ooly a partial Jist of extra curricular work may be listed. but to each girl who gave her best efforts to make her chapter strong goes our recognition.

These girls all exempLi1ied the best in college life, but inasmuch as a winner had to be selected the honor went to Ha.rriette Rbum of Illinois E for an especially outstanding contribution to the fraternity by her brilliant scholastic and extra· curricular ampw career.

The eight chapters were aU 100% in their contributions to the national projects which speaks very well for their viewpoint on Pi Phi natiooaJ aHa..in. Deep interest and sympathy was given to the newest frate'rnity project, a.id to the Save The OliJdren Federation. In the spring an "am" displaced European child was assigned to the province to help care for, and response to the appeaJ was immediate and generous.

The Advisory Boards have a motivating force in the chapter accompHshments; the frirod!y counsel and thoughtful guidance given by these alumna: is greatfully received hy the actives. To each Board and its chairman goes my appreciation for help and cooperation.

One of the nicest experiences of the year was the visit to Lambda Phi. petitioning group at Bradley University, in company with a representative from each of the active chapters. The Pi Phi delegates con-

Aducted themselves with a thoroughness and maturity that was very pleasing. Altu cha.pter reporU of this visit were made. there was unanimous desire to grant a charter of Pi Beta Phi to the petitioning group. 10 May the Installation cutmOnies for llJinois e were held, with the Grand President and the Grand VicePresident conducting the initiations in a most inspiring manner. During: the course of atteodtnt ("TeaLS numerous actives from nearby chapters were able to be present for the thrilling .nd never-to-be-forgotteo experience of seeing a new chapter come into being_ JIIinois e has a splendid backgroUJld and promises to assume a place of prominence in the fraternity; we are happy to claim its members as our own and the province extends a warm welcome to the new actives and alumnz.

The Year's experience of worlcing with the chapters in Eta Province leads me to beliC"'f'e sincerely that the college women of today are intelligent. responsible, and democratic citizens. 'I1:tey l.Ie qualified to make a useful contribution to the needs of the world. To each chapter I offer my affection and thanks for the happiness of their association.

For all their kind help, Miss Onken. Isabel Winkler and Beatrice Felmley have my deep gratitude. To all Grand Couocil I wish another yeat as successful as this has been for Pi Beta Phi.

THETA PROVINCE PRESIDENT

COLLEGB year bas elapsed since I was first asked to be Theta Province President_ Working again with the girls has virtually turned back the years for me, and my insight into their lives fcom this association is &J1 apecieoce which I shall cherish forever.

Laura Ann Reyn olds. from Iowa B, was elected from a group of five candidates u the Amy Burnham OnJc.en Award winner. Her untiring and devoted services to her chapter from her Freshman year through her Senior year as chapter president have endeared her to the heart of every member. In campus activities, she is well represented in all fields: athletics, music, dramatics, Spanish club, p r esident of pep dub, May Queen attendant for three years. and Homecoming Princess in 1944 She is judged by Pi Phis and other students and faculty alike as portraying qualities of outstanding leadership and finest character. Each member of the Iowa B chapter feels that becau.se of her strong leadership abilities, they have attained the po.:oition of first place on the campus. Other andidates for the award were: Joan Holt, Iowa Z; Mary Dodds, I owa r; Beth Rotherford, Iowa A; and Louisa Wetherbee, Minnesota A.

Mrs. Hollis Johnson is the new cha.perone at Jowa B at Simpson College. 1'his is the only change jn chaperones. The chapter houses are all running smoothly and efficiently, with redecorating having been done at Iowa Z and r. Minnesota A, and North Daleota A

Scholuship maintains its wual high position in Theta Province with five of the In'en chapters being in the upper third of the college scholastic rating. Four senior women from Iowa Z were initiated into .z, B K, as well as two from North Dakota A. At Iowa State, five members of Iowa r were initiated into. K 41.

One hundred twenty-three girls were pledged to Pi

Beta Phi from Theta Province during the past year in a very s uccessful rushing program at each school.

Because the worle as province president has been so new and unfamiliar to me in many phases, J have called many times on the assistance of alumnr dub members. They have helped me untiringly. and I do thank them for their constant assistance.

Activities on aU campuses continue to throb and provide the outside impetus so important to a healthy chapter. Following is a list of major achievements from each chapter:

IOTA PROVINCE PRESIDENT

s THE final reports come in from chapters of the Iota Province, the thrill of accomplishments is transmitted to its province president. Every chapter is filling an important place on its r espective campus and is working in such a sincere and earnest manner that it is with a of geeat satisfaction and pride that I review the results.

Kansas B this year has shared the Stoolman Vase with Ohio A; and the Amy B. Onken Award foe this province went t o Ruth Ann Hodgson of Kansas B . Ruth Ann WlS cited as the senior girl who had had the highest grades in the School of Home Economics for four years. Se also was given the Borden Award for the outstanding student in Home Economics.

Several of the chapters were visited in the fall , the remaining ones in February and March Grand Council vis its were made by Marion Reed Wild to Kansas A, Karuas n. and South Dakota A; and Lolita Snell Prouty visited Colorado A. Colorado n, Wyoming A , and Utah A. They were a great inspira· tio n to the above chapters.

Rwhing in the province was highly successful and resulted in the pledging of U7 girls. Now only one chapter in the province. Kansas A, has to rush und er a strict quota system.

Of the eight chapters in the Iota Province, Wyoming A, Kansas B, Kan sas A. and Colorado A hold first place scholastically o n their respective campuses. All cha pters in the province. with the exception of one, are in the upper third of sorority groups on their cam· puses. The scholarship record of the province is the best that it has been in many years. The following have representations in 4> n K: Colorado A, four; Wyoming A, one; Colorado n, two; Nebra ska B, two In cit K 4Js: Kan sas S, five; Uta.h A, two Wyoming A, o ne. TIle above report pertaining to honors is incomplete. Kan sas A pledges all made their grades. so were a 100 % class for initiation. The Colorado B pledge class won the Scholarship Cup for the highest average of aU pledge classes on their campus. Colorado A was presented the Denver Panhellenic Scholarship Cup for the seventh consecutive yeu.

It would be impossible for me to say bow much I appreciate this opportunity for close personal contact with the chapters of the Iota Province and the cooperation, courtesy. and friendship that bas been given so liberally_ I enjoyed the meetings with members of Advisory Committees and the pleasant ways provided. for me to meet other alumnr. I wish to express my gratitude to my loyal chapters. members of Grand Council, and especially to Miss Onken. for the wonderful assistance and inspiration given me during my first year as province president. It has been a real joy to serve Pi acta Phi.

K A PPA PRO V IN CE PR ESID ENT

I T IS still su rprising to me to be writing the annual report for Kappa Province for this year. After my resignation last summer. and after having been replaced by Margaret Twyrmn. my personal plans were cha nged. and so were has. she having taken unto herself a new husband, and so I was glad to be able to 611 out the rest of the year after her marriage late in the fall. I enjoyed my work with the chapters this year even more than last. for I reaJized that I had a much deeper insight into the workings' of the fraternity as a result of attending convention and having been associated so intimately with the chapters last year_ Kappa Province comprises seven fine chapters, which are by no means perfect, but which have the most important. in my estimation, essential of II. fioe group-and that is determination and ambition to improve themselves. It is a real pleasure to know the girls in each group. and to know that they are not content with today's achitvements but look towards greater ones in the future.

The retention of the Balfour Cup by Arkansas .A is pridefully pointed out by the other six chapters. And. at the same time. each vows that Arkansas A. will not always keep that the lovely silver vase will soon find its way to one of six other cities or towns in the four states!

Our scholarship record is not so brilliant as it was last year, since-instead of four first places-.we had only two this year. Arkansas A and OlcJahoma. B retained their leading positions. Louisiana A has not able to ascertain its place:. since the comparative ratings have not been issued by the school. Louisiana B dropped from second to seventh) Oklahoma A from third to fourth. Texas A from mst to second. and Texas n from first to third_ Great plans are being made by these groups to see that there is a change next year-and one for the better!

Jean Marie Kearns of Oklahoma B was awarded the Amy B. Onken award for the province. To me, sbe is truly representative of the things for which this fine

honor stands. It 'Was a difficult decision, in view of the outstanding character istics of the other candidates, who were: Arkansas A. Mary Ross McFaddi n; Louisiana B, Carolyn Blanchud ; Oklahoma A, Zannie M ae Mannings; Texu .A., Mary Lib Vick; and Texas D. Eugenia Pierce.

In view of the turnover in the presidency I was n ot able to make chapter visits until earll in the spring. Late in February J began my circuit 0 the Southwest. and had pleasant visits in Baton Rouge, New Orleans, Austin.. Dallas, Stillwater, and Norman. Since Fayetteville is geographically out of the way from any of these points, J made another trip to that chapter. ]0 each instance the visits were completel, satisfactory and enjoyable, and the girls and I worked far into the nights trying to iron out difficulties and settle prob· lems. Louisiana B continues to use it.! attractive Pao..belJenic room, Louisiana A its quaint little cottage. Texas A has its own home. Texas B an apartment. and both of the Oldahoma chapten and the Arkansas chapter ace in their own

The three Pi Phi housemothecs-Mn Winton at Awt in, Gladys ScivaJIy at Norman and Mrs Clift on at Fayettevilleare still wit the girls, as much a part of thc chapter as t:Vtt, although Norm an has reluctantly relinquished Gladys Scivally as of July 1 to succeed Beatrice Purdunn Fernley as the Director of Central Office. Mrs. Campbell at Oklahoma B is a "newcomer" to the ranks of Pi Phi housemothers, and yet. from her appreciation and understanding of and love for the girls, one would think she was born into the position ---and she was born into the position of being a lovely and gracious lady We io the province are cxuemeJy proud of our four lovely ladies, and lay partial claim to Mrs. McMillen in Dallas who manages the girls' apartment for them. It is the regret of all of us that there is no house at SMU over which she could preside.

Again, oW' province is 100% in its contributions to Pi Phi philanthropic projects. As a group, the chapters contributed S330 to the Settlement School; $182.'0 to the Loan Fund; and Sl'2 .'O to Holt House. In addition, the chapters contributed individually to the campus drives for the World Stude nt Service Fund, the Red Cross, the March of Dimes. the Cancer Control, and the Community Chest. Louisiana A inaugurated its own social service program this yea.c by assisting with a home for indigent children. known as the Gumble Home, and has contributed money and the energies of its members in helping the children. Oklahoma B continues with its usistance towards the Panhellenic movement to raise money with which to purchase medicine for the needy sick people in Stillwater. Arkansas A contributes monthly to the support of a blind girl who is going to school, and who was elected to A A A this spring. This ch2pter has a.lso "adopted" a war orphan of its own.

Tau A is generously sharing it! "child" of the Save the Child.ren Federation with Ten.s B. The other lrve chapters in the province are thoroughly enjoying the pleasure of assisting nd writing to Kappa Proymcc's o n chilct. As a member of Lowsitna said, in spea.king: of tbeu enjoyment of working in the Gumble Home. "it is work with the hands. as weIJ as ith the heart."

I believe all of the K2ppa Province chapters are better than well represented 00 their ampu.ses in worthwhile activities. I shall recapitulate these activities; sta.rs after the name of the orpnization indio cate number of offices other than president; I will take note of aU p.resideDCies ; the arabic numbers

MARGARET JACOWAY

LAMBDA PROVINCE PRESIDENT

BBnNG so many charming active members of Pi Beta Phi who are enthwiastically participating in college life. who are devoted to their fraternity, and who have bttn hospitality itself to the Province President has been an experience she will long reo member. The members have shown an eagerness to learn more about the national fraternity and they have been most gracious in accepting suggestions which will bring a greater unity in working for the ideals of Pi Beta Phi. With such fraternity spirit there caD be but one result-the development of strong chapters.

Any ttepidation I experienced when I first accepted office was soon dispelled through the generous cooperation I received from Miss Oaken and the memo bers of the Grand Council. Miu Onken's sharing SO unselfishly of her fraternity experience bas been in· valuable to this Province President. I am, indeed, grateful to Miss Onk.eo. for the many fine suggestions, and for the encouragement in cncuting my responsi· bilities.

Chapters in lambda Province are cognizant of the fact that if a fraternity is to be powerful and un· assailable, the chapters must show that they work for the interest of the college or university, and for the mental training for which the institution stands. The chapters in Lambda Province are proving that a fraternity gul who is sincerely loyal to her fraternity shows 10yaJty to her college or university by taking part in its activities. Scholarship and student activity participation are the two objectives being emphasized.

in Lambda Province.

Oregon .A. has made the most outstanding improvements in scholarship in the Province. The chapter began the year with a scholastic ratin,g on the ampus of eighth, but at the end of the year Creson A ranked first in competition with all organized groups. This has been accomplished through strict observance of rules, complete cooperation from a ll members of the chapter. and an attitude towuds scholarship which inspired every member in her responsibility. A proved that women's fraternities do not need to concede that the vetenns are the only students with a seriow purpose in attending an institution Alberta A won the Scholarship Cup at the Univenity of Alberta. The " " " Fraternity had held the Cup for three consecutive years, so this was a noteworthy achievement by Alberta A.. Alberta .A.. aha WOD the scho larship plaque for Lambda Province in addition to winning first place in scholarship on the campw at the University of Alberta.

The academic and scholas tic honoraries achieved by the girls in lambda Province arc most impressiv.e. nd convinc ingly prove that the confidence placed 10 these girls have been well justified. M any girls ace contributing through committee assignments which is a stepping stone to outstanding recog nition the girls will receive later on in th eir college life. To these girls. as well as to th.ose whose arc li s ted in this report, the fraterruty expresses sIDcere thanks and appreciation for the splendid spirit of cooperation, and the excellent attitude they are assuming, and have assumed, in endeavoring to fulfill the obligations they accepted as initiated members of Pi Beta Phi, I n Alberta A, Lillian Guitard was Secretary of the Debating Club; Lois Hill is to be Pre s ident of Panhellenic ; Sydney Jones was President o f th e Mathematics and Science Club; Jean McDon a ld won the Go ld Medal in Pharmacy; Elsie Mills was Secretary of the Literary Association; Elizahe,th.

MU PROVINCE PRESIDENT

y FIRST year as M u Province President started with a visit to New Mexico A for its installation . This was indeed a great pleasure and a wonderful and inspirational way in which to start my Pi Phi work, as I had been away from any co nt acts for three years and needed something t o bring me back in to th e swi ng of things

My first official visits started in October to California B and Nevada A. In Novembe r , I went to Ca lifornia 6. a nd in December to California r . Since I had so recentJ y visited New Mexico, I made th e trip to them a nd to Ari zona A, immediately after the second semes te r Ad e le Alford covered my entire territory officially duri n g March and April.

The comparative scholarship ratings a nd the individua l honors have been very slow to reach me and J am sure th a t I am omitting some fine recog nition that should have appeared here. Califomia B was 13th o n her campus , Nevada las t out of 4 groups and New Mexico tied for las t place among' groups. H owever. Californi a r came up from 10th place to 2nd a nd California 6. wa s 7th out of 22 chapters Arizona was 3rd. All th e ch apters are putting forth exceptional e ffort to make a good scholastic showing.

The f o ll owi ng is a condensed version of chapter honors and activities for the individual chapters.

All the Ad'Yi so ry Board members are worJcing hard fo r their chapten and are a loyal and conscientio us group. ]t was a pleasure for me to meet so many old friends o n th ese Boards at Arizona A. California T, and 6. I found no serious problems in Advisory Board -Chapter relationships

All our houses have been kept in excellent condition with the possible exception of Nevada A which needs some redecorating and very de6nitely some sort of remodeling to include a good study hall. California B, r and a were all redecorated in part lut summer and are in beautiful condition Arizona has plans for remodeling in about a year.

The Mu Province Amy Burnham Onken Awud winner was Anne Pearce of California r and her record was indeed outstanding

Thi s Province supported its national projects in the amounts of $53 to Loan Fund, $89.86 to Settlement School and $72 to Holt House, but I am sorry to report that we we re not 100% in chapter participation

The privilege of working for the Fraternity this past year has been an experience for which I sball be forever grateful. May I take this opportunity to thank our chaperons, Ad visors, and chapter members for their kindness to me, Grand Council for making this oppo rtunity for service possible and Miss Onken in particular for her graciousness and iorbeara.nC'e with me a nd my problems.

Reports of Province Vice,..Presidents

ALPHA EAST PROVINCE VICE-PRESIDENT

TH B GOAL of a 100% province was Dot reached by alumnI! nor actives but we welcome a new club at Stamford, and we can show • slight increase in membership, Bwiington, Halifax, and New Haven have not made contributions to • .Il projects; however the total Imount from the province has increased.

The annuu Sophomore award given by Portland was given to Jane Atwood. Vermont B Many cluhs have aided chapters in rushing or have given financial help.

Five clubs held Azrowcca.ft sales; Hartford sent • box at Christmas to the Settlement School and Boston sent Christmas records. Through a series of well planned money raising schemes Montreal raised $1'0 to endow a bed at the Children ' s Hospital. The clubs

Tin the province sm l a CARE package to "their" orphan.

It was a pleasure to visit duhs at Burlington Halifax. Montreal, New Haven. and Portland. • There are several paid members who are not in alumnz dubs . It is hoped that these may be the start of alumnz clubs Ten members in a community ue enough to have a charte r. In July there will be the usual Vermont picnic near Rutland The State of M.aine group plans a state conference the last of June. Again I o::press my appreciation for the cooperation and loyalty of officers and club members in thi s province. To a ll membef'3 of Grand Council, committee chairmen, and Central Office. I am especialJy grateful for suggestions and help.

ALPHA WEST PROVINCE VICE-PRESIDENT

HE twelve Clubs in our Province have shown a gain of « membtrs over last yeu. The Arrowcraft sales increased from $1647.47 to $2161 " this year. AlJo, the contributions to Holt House and the Loan Fund increased. The magazine commissions are a little bel ow last year, which is regrettable.

The Oubs aU bave hem extremely interested in our little French boy, Jean Claude Boutin. They have sent him a great many boxes of clothing, food, etc. We think he has enough clothing to last him at least a yeat', so are concentrating on food from now on.

Our Province is very proud to have Mes. Rauch of the New York City Oub appointed to serve on the Settlement School Committee.

It was a wonderful experience for me to attend

Bseveral Founders' Day Celebrations, besides my own Oub. The Westchester Club paid special honor to th eir "Golden Arrow" members. A corsage of wine carnations tied with blue ribbon was given each one

The New York City Club had the honor and pleasure of having Mrs. Carrie Chapman Catt at th eir January meeting. We all deeply tC'gret her death . My best wishes and thanks to the Club Officers and members of the fraternity for their cooperation and help. My appreciation and thanlu to Grand Council and Central Office for their inspiration and guidance.

BETA PROVINCE VICE-PRESIDENT

BTA PR.OVINCE has earned three·fold congratulations this year The province is 100% in contributions, has incceued its contributions to the Settlement School, and increased itt membership Widespread enthusiasm in working for Pi Phi has been reflected in dub letters. Cleveland East gave the most to Settlement School, with Philadelphia second., and Oeveland West, third.

Many club. have reported increased activity in the local philanthropies Help to handicapped Red Cross, Cane.. Clinic, Y .W .c.A., Q,i1d=·s Hospitals, needy families, Community Chests, and Youth Centers, are among the groups assisted.

Our Province OUId. Jeannette Jans of Be.lgiu.m. will receive several nice gifts of money and supplies

All dubs located near active chaptetS WUC' most belpful to our Pi Phis Sevenl other dubs more distant sent a gift to some active chapter

Arrowaaft sales have not been too good but this is no doubt partially due to difficulty in 6JJi ng orders at the School. We will all be gJad, I am sure, when supplies can meet the demands

I have visited nitJ.e dubs this year, not iocIuding my own dub here in Columbw. These visits have all been • reaJ pleasure for me, and it is hard to thanIr

enough all the Pi Phis who make these visits enjoya ble. I an only hope that my eRocts bring them all just a little closer to the realization of what Pi Phi means nationally.

Tbe Columbus Club and Ohio B chapter bad a treat this spring in being able to entertain Miss Onken and ten visiting Deans of Women, all Pi Phis They were attending the National meeting of Deans of Women here in Columbus. Our own Dean, Clu:istioe Conaway, was Chairman of the Convention.

Interest among dubs in the "Recnmmendation Committee" is increasing. I think the importance of such a committee keeps stimulating Pi Phis everywhere, ma.king them realize more and more the im· portance of Pi Phi selection.

To each dub of Beta Province let me say that it has been a joy and privilege to wOlk with you. It has been a climax to the inspiration gained at Convention. My coo.gratula.tions go to each Pi Phi who has made this a most successful yeat for our Province and Fraternity . For the guidance and help of our Grand President and Grand Council and for the prompt service and c0operation of Centrtl OfIice I am deeply gr.ttduL

Respectfully,

Eomi H. RANXIN

GAMMA PROVINCE VICE-PRESIDENT

EACH P .V.P. no doubt thinks her province is the best:. but the clubs in Gamma Province once more belons in the 100% c1a.u-a1l have contributed to each national project. and in two in.stances have given valuable help to local activities; Richmond to the Elizabeth Cates Foundation at the State Industri al Farm for Women, and Washington in raising $2000 for the George Washington Univenity H ospital Building Fund. Most dubs are stjll working for the Red Cross and for the U.S.O. if it is still functiooing.

In addition to the Province Odld, tw o clubs, BaHi· more and Washington, have a child of their own and by letters and gifts may continue their help.

Every club except DOC has assisted one or more active chapters by helping with rushing, supplying ini tiation contributing furoUhings and gifts to the chapter rooms (includinA hand made and embroidered teatowels) entertaining at Senior Farewell Ceremony, rushing teas for local guls going away to college, and the __ Iways welcome gifts of money. There is a fine spirit of cooperation between dubs and chapters and advisory boards.

The clubs and chapters have held joint Settlement Schoo l Sales and Teas, and this was a banner yeu for joint founders' Day celebrations: Columbia and South Caro lina A; Chapel Hill, Durham and Raleigh with North Carolina A and B; Norfolk and Richmond with Virginia r and largest of all Wash inron Jr. and Sr. and Ba.itimore clubs with District 0 Columbi.a , Maryland A and 8 . It was Maryland A's fiftieth anniversary and May L. Keller, a $olden Arrow Pi Phi, was guest of honor and speaker. There were 286 present with 4 golden Arrow members from Maryland A and one from D C. A, with one table with 9 Pi Phis who were initiated more than fifty yean ago. Membership in the clubs ranges from 10 to 114 and

Iall have had the required meetings. AJtho the junior group in Wahiogton has been active as a separate club for a long time, it applied for a charter this year, so the province an report two new clubsWashington, Jr and Durham., N .C.

All dubs have a Committee on Rushing Recommendations, and "..here an active chapter is near enough, have members On the Advisory Board . The clubs have magazine chainnCll and there has been good publicity in local papers about Settlement School and the Fnte mity 's worle with the Save the Otildren F o undation.

My official visit to the clubs was a real joy to me, in spite of snow in three places in the "sunny south." Everywhere the members, from recent graduates to grandmothers were enthusiastic and cooperative and working constructively for the best aims and ideals of Pi Phi . Only one Phi club did not ask me for information about the "Proposed Home for Elderly Pi Phis" ::md that was the ;lIltio, group in Washington.

Miss Onken's visit in the province was .U too short, but thanla to Kitty Massenberg I did have a chance to visit with her at luncheon and take her to the bus for her next stop

For any success of Gamma Province I can only give my warmest thanks and app reciation to officers and members of my dubs. The dirutor of Central Office (even if she did take time out to marty!), the national committee chainnen, each membtt of Grand Council and my own Province President have all helped me in every possible way and through the stimulation of all these fine Pi Phis my year has been happy as well as bwy, and, I hope, profitable for all my clubs and the fraternity.

ISABEL DRURY HEUBECK

DELTA PROVINCE VICE-PRESIDENT

T 15 with mixed feelings of pride and humility that I submit this, my first report on Delta Province-pride in the accomplishments of the club and humility ove r my own li mitations which may have been a factor in failure of the province to rea ch the 100% goal toward which it had been urged.

The province is sorry to lose the Flint club which became inactive at the close of last year and we sincerely hope that notice of its reactivation can be car ried in this report next year.

Fourteen of the sixteen active clubs in the province rated 100% in their support of the three major projects of the fraternity. Settlement School contributions totaled $498 .07, an increase of $13.07 over last year's amount with Ind ianapolis, Jackson, Lafayette, and Southwestern Indiana clubs showing increase in contri butions this year. Holt House contributions totaled '54.50, a decrease of $11.00 under last you's amount. Clubs which increased contributions to Holt House are Ann Arbor, Fort Wayne. Jackson, and Southwestern Indiana. J..oan Fuod co ntr ibutions, totaling $61.)0, is the same as last year's amount, with Grand Rapids, Hillsdale, Jaclcson, and Southwestern Indiana showing an increase in contributions this year.

Membership has increased from 541 last yeu to 588 this year, or to 608 if 14 affiliated seniors and 6 isolated Pi Phis who paid national dues are included. All clubs with one exception, showed membership increase over last year. Those showiog pin. in order

of amount of gain, are Ann Arbor which led with 13, Fort Wayne, Franklin, Grand Rapids. Wayette, Southwestern Indiana, Bloomington, Northern Indiana, In dianapo lis, Bloom6eld Hills, Richmond, Gary, Hills· dale, and Lansing.

Arrowcraft sales, totaling $3.'62 58 represents a gain of $1"3.0 over those of last year. The nine clubs which sold Arrowcraft, in order of amount sold arc Bloomfield Hills, which led with gross sales totaling at least $ 1010.50, Lafayette. Fort Wayne, lansing, Ann Arbor, Franklin, Indianapolis, Detroit, and Southwestern Indiana.

An excellent cooperation exists between clubs and chapters in the province where active chapters received a great deal of assistance in organized rushing as well as financial aid from clubs. $everal clubs located thae are no chapters are showing awareness of responsi bility toward chapters by making gifts to chapters and awards to in recognition aDd furtherance of scholarship and leadership achievement. Of these dubs, Detroit led by givinJ;: $75.00 to Michigan r, $10 00 to Michigan A and Michi· Ban B. each. as we U as a gift to an active in each of those chapters in recognition of high scholarship. Fort Warne gave $2'.00 to Indiana E; Southwestern Indiana gave $5 .00 to the same chapter.

Hills gave magazine subscriptions to Michigan r. Needless to say, the dubs located where there ue chapters continue their tireless and never ceasing support of chapters, never failing to counselor to

help them gain needed mo ney or equipment . Lansing is d o ing an excellent job in raising money which wi ll guarantee th e young Mi chigan r chapter a sou nd fi nan c ial stru cture. I wi sh I cou ld go into detail o n the fine things other clubs did f o r chapters this year.

The increase in paid membership kept pace wi th the increase in r es id ent membership in the province, sti ll showing however, that there are many a lumnae taking no active part in fraternity work_ The 603 pai d members this year ar e r esponsib le for increased finan· cia l support to the fraternity projects a s well as aid to the chapters and indiv idua l loca l projects. Th e clubs vary in size from Jefferson City's 11 , which is 100% of the resident membership, to in Kansas City M o re than half of the clubs have shown a fin e increase in membership this year

Th e idea has take n hold and severa l clubs have already made pledges or co ntr ibutio n s t oward it

Loan Fund , too, has r eceived the support o f a ll the clubs to the amount of $50.00. Magazine commissions are up s lightly and Kan sas City is in seco nd place n atio nall y. Arrow Craft sales are up in practica ll y every cl ub and most clubs have r eceived all ordered products.

ETA PROVINCE VICE-PRESIDENT

HE PERJOD of soc ial, political. and inte.nu.tional readjustm e nt is still apparent in the world, but fortunat e ly, our clubs have a much more gen· era lized. feeling of stability than during the war years. Their enthusiasm a nd co·operation is still going upward, like our arrow point. All but three clubs have maintained th e same or in creased their membership and their attendance at meetings. We now have 794 members compared to for last year.

Although the entire province missed the 100 % goal this year. we have 23 of the 25 clubs in this group. Support of the three national projects was excellent.

The gross sa les of Arrowcraft merchandise were almost $1000 more than a year ago, Sdtlement School receiving $794, nearly $100 more than 1946 . Cham· paign-Urbana was in first place again this year with gross sales of $1500. This dub was followed by Mil· waukcc's $114' and Madison with $1080. Many of the clubs contributed. other gifts of toys, books, games, and records besides memorials for Eunice Weaver to Settlement School.

It is worthy of no te that cleven alumnz clubs in the province assist active chapters each year either financial ly or by remembering th em with a gift. All clubs in the province give efficient rushing help

The majority of clubs have been very enthusiastic over our Province child. Nine of them have already "showered" him with a box from their club and se veral others have made plans to do this same thing before fall. Chi cago South was so eager to

Tdo something that they raised $1 '0 and will now be able to support a school of their own through the Save the Children Federation. Oak Pack·River Forest has adopted a Dutch family besides sending Christmas gifts to the soldiers at Vaughn Hospital and more recently supplying them with cakes and cookies. Chicago West Suburban has a family in Czechoslovakia and one in Greece to whom they send things. Spring6eld has sent baby clothes to Vienn a. Most of the clubs contribute to local charities. This helps to illustrate the fact that Pi Phis always like to help others.

In all, Eta Province shows a substantial increase and improvement over a year ago. The pride and pleasure in working with the clubs and noting their accomplishments has been wonderful. The thrill and privilege which was mine in assisting Miss Onken , Mrs. Wild, and Mrs. Burley with the initiation of Illinois e would be difficult to express. The old members of the Peoria Alumne along with the new alumnz initiates deserves a tare orchid for their organization, co-operation and hud worle..

For the opportunity to work with and fo r Pi Beta Phi, I am most grateful. To just say thank you to all club officers, Grand Council members, and Beatrice Purdunn Felmley and Central Office for their help and inspiration, S«lDS a little inadequate, considering what it has all meant to me. It would n o doubt be more forceful and you'lJ understand how I feel by saying, "Thank you God, I'm a Pi Beta Phi :'

THETA PROVINCE VICE.PRESIDENT

HETA PROVINCE has rea ched their goal of 100%.

Every club in this province has cont ributed to eac h of the three National Projects All the clubs have had an outstanding year. The membership for the Province has in creased by 144 members. This is o\'er a third again as many as last year's total paid membership. Last year's members hip was 377 and it n o w is

Last year only s ix clubs had Arrowcraft sales totaling $618 .90 while this year ten clubs Arrow· cra ft materials totalJing $1232 29 The MagazlDe Fund

has increased this year, from $342 .60 to $478 .3 2 commissions earned by the clubs. This may account for the decrease in the Settlement School gifts. I believe this is a direct r es ult of the fact that somc of the clubs failed to make out a budget at the beginning of the year and they cu t on their contributions simply becausc th ey were afraid of running short when they had to send in th ei r convention tax. I have great faith this will never happen again.

The Loan Fund increased from SH.OO to $'9.00. The Holt House Fund also increased from to

$6; ,::;0. Figures simply show the general trend in the province of the grand efforts all the clubs arc extendin,g in their respective cities.

After co rr esponding wi th these Clubs f o r three years without having any personal contact with them I was overjoyed with the fine spirit within the clubs.

C lubs having Active Chapters in or near their communities have very busy helping out. Large financial gift!; to these chapters were very much appreciated I am sure. The change in Panhellenic rushing rules at Iow a Z made a big change in plans for the Iowa Clubs. No pre-rushing for any girl going to Io wa Z and because of that the dubs did not dan to have the tr ad itional rush parties in the summer for fear they might by accident tush some girl who might d«ide to go to Iowa Z

The G I wives in our community ace not always able to take a very active part in the Clubs. They come occasionally when their young families permit but they are being urged to come whenever possible.

Our new dub, Tri Cities Club. has made a grand start. I never will forget the day I spent with this

Igroup . I am sure there are ten good Pi Phi Alumnr in several cities in this province and jf they could know the satisfaction this group has had this year being organized, they would find out how they could become a chartered dub.

I have made eleven official visits this year and your province vice president wishes to thank you for the many courtesies that made my visits so enjoyable. While serving you as your province vice president I have received a great measure of reward in friend· ships made and contacts that will always a great deal to me. It is with regret th at I am giving up th e privilege but many things prevent me from going on and one is that I am moving from this part of the country. Our home is to be in Columbus, Ohio.

To the members of Grand Council, Central Office, and my Grand Club Presidents I wish to express my sincere appreciation. I am going to miss your many letters. May I have the opportunity of seeing you all again at some futur e convention

JEAN JOHNSTON

IOTA PROVINCE VICE-PRESIDENT

OTA PROVINCE comes so near the 100% goal that it is doubly disappointing not to have attained it. All clubs are active wth 16 out of the 18, 1000/0 Wth a very slight decrease in several clubs, the overall increase, much more than makes up, since it is nearly four times as great. Interest in Settlement School Sales bas a decided upturn and plans for the future are very bright. lawrence rushed ahead with $1200.00 plus, Denver next with $1144.79. Omaha followed with $700 ,00 plw and Manhattan reports over $H5.00 with Topeka $349.88. While the total was a little be· low last year, it probably was because several had no sales . The support of Holt House and the Loan Fund remained approximately the same and the Magazine sales bave been pushed faithfully. All but one club, list support of Holt House as is the case with the Loan Fund.

If figures mean anything, the average attendance at meetings needs bolstering. Possibly this unrest is nearing a close and many young couples will be permanently located We hear often of members, knowing a change is temporary. hesitating to affiliate with the local club. This is Out distinct loss but we can see both sides. It may be a wrong conclusion but it seems in every case possible, the interest is increasing in aiding the active chapters wbich is what w e are striving for since we are a college group primarily. In every case, local projects and charities were sUpPJrted in addition to our projects. Several sent books to the Settlement School Library

Oand gifts to our chi ld in devastated Europe.

Our enforced residence in Tucson prevented visiting dubs this year which was what made me hesitate so long in accepting the responsibility. However, I sincerely hope I can more than make up next fall but even through lett ers, I feel a very sincere interest between myseU and the dubs.

Founders' Day was truly inspiring with the Lincoln alumnz and actives, and several meetings with them since have increased the feeling. The correspondence has been very heavy but I have tried to keep up my end of it. Marianne Wild's visit through this province was a great aid and I deeply regret my absence while she was in Omaha.

As I see it, our objective is to keep our beloved Pi Beta Phi functioning and alive in every alumnz heart, and if I may believe the reports of my presidents, we are accomplishing a trying part.

May I express my deep appreciation to those individual presidents who were so painstaking and prompt? They will n eve r know how they bolstered my morale The monthly letters of Amy Onken and Marianne Wild, to be passed on, were wonderful help to my feeble efforts.

To Miss Onken, M arianne Wild, othe r members of Grand Council, Committee Chairmen, and Central Office. may I express my sincere thanks and gratitude for your help?

KAPPA PROVINCE VICE-PRESIDENT

N THE whole, Kappa Province's year has shown progress. There was .n increase of one hundred and six paid members, bringing the t otal to nine hundred and eighty five. The Dallas club led with one hundred and twenty seven members, Oklahoma City had one hundred and thirteen, and Tulsa one hundred and eleven. Bryan-College Station and Wich· ita Falls dubs, chartered last summer. and the two Dew clubs chartered this year, McAlester and Rio Gran.de Valley, bring the number of clubs in the provwce to twenty five.

Of these, seventeen clubs were classed as 1000/0. with contributions to all three projects, while twenty contributed to the $.ett1ement School. nineteen to Holt House and eighteen to the loan Fund. Two of the new dubs and three old clubs made no contributions at all. Total contributions for the Settlement School increased from last year's $8'2.80 to $1033.44, plus one $'.00 gift to the Memorial Fund. Contributions to the Loan Fund show a very small increase from '134 .'0 to $14'.00; to Holt House an incrca.sc of over 100%. from $95.00 to $206.25. showing a nice

gain in interest. Besides these contributions to oW' own projects, several of the dubs made contributions, some of them vUf generous, to local charities. Among these dubs were Sbreveport, Corpus Christi, Austin, Dallas. Ardmore, and Ok.lahoma Gty. The clubs in Tulu. MuskoJ!«, Still,.. r, Dall , and 0kWJ0ma Gty made gila to the active chapters, in the amount of Money raising ventures ranged from that old fav. orite of alumnae clubs, the rummag e sale, through sales of vanilla, Master Hangers, and advertising in the Year Book, to Pi Pbi bridge dubs. and the sponsoring of a little Theater "First Night" performance, which netted Several of the clubs have already expCQK:d interest in putting on large projects this summer or next fall.

Arrowcralt sales show an increase due to greater amounts of material available. Eleven dubs reporting salC1 show gross sales of $'012 .2 1.

While I have mentioned first the material achieve· ments of the Province, other important gains have bent made. One of them was the organization of a State Alumnz Association in Oklahoma. An annual meeting is planned in Oklahoma City for the present, it being in almost the exact center of the state and conveniently located for both chapters. One of the of>..

Tj«tives is to draW' into Pi Phi {eHowshit;» scattered alumnI! who do not have the privilege o( belonging to chartered clubs.

The Fayetteville dub shared in the visit of Miss Coken to Arbnsu A in D«embec. Olivia Moore was a Auest in Fayetteville at the same time

In februa.ry it was my very great pleuure to visit the clubs in Au.stin. San Antonio, Corpus Christi. Houston, Shreveport, Dallas, Ardmore, aod Still· water. Metting so many wonderfuJ Pi Phis. and renewing acquaintance with many old friends made thi> the highlight of the year for the PVP.

RushinA and Recommendations Committees fuoc· tioned well in most clubs , .nd with renewed explanation of the functioning of such committees, will no doubt function even better next ,ear.

It bas Men • great r.leasure to serve as Province Vice-President, and I eel much the ticher for the contacts with the National Officers., and with the alumnI! clubs. The letters of Miss Onken and Mrs. Wild as well as those of the faithful presidents of clubs who wrote each month. have bttn a source of great inspiration and renewed zeal for Pi Phi to me.

HE Pi Phi family in Lambda Province bas grown in interest achievements, clubs. and members. We are happy to welcome back: into the fold the members of the BiJ1ings club, and our membership total, oclusive of last year's seniors. is 699. AU but one--our Billings been 100% in contributing to the fraternity projects . Those gifts include $612 to Settlemeot School ($10 of that told from the dub in WaUa Walla whkh hasn ' t become natioou yet); $126.'0 to Holt Mouse; and to Loan Fund. Seattle leads the Settlement School given with $200; and the dub in Tacoma which is known u Inez Smith Soule, heads the Holt House dona ti on with $20 plus ,2' aJ a special memorial to their founder. P o rtland also gave $20 to Holt House and $50 to each of the three local in their state!

Only eight of the eighteen dubs had Arrowcra.ft Sales, but again the total is higher than for many yea.rs---ovec the $4,000 mark.

Only one club in the province is 100% in membership, and that honor goes to Wenatchee where 22 active Pi Phis bad a successful Arrowcraft Sale and

Aturned the profit of $50 to the School.

Many groups have given assistance to local philan· thropic endeavors. Notable in this list is the support of the groups in Yakima and Pullman towllds ho,. pitals for their towns. Much interest in our Finnish boy. Reino Johan, has resulted in needed and useful supplies-food and clothing-to his family. The grateful letters from his rnothCl' assure us all that our efforts arc indeed appreciated.

MU PROVINCE VICE-PRESIDENT

ND now we come to the close of an other chapter. which. like college "co mmencement" [laces a period at the end of one phase of work an of life, but for aU that it si.snifies of ending and departure is really the means by which we clear the way for the opening of a new volume!

Since complete satisfaction with what has been done is ever an indication of smugness and the end of the determination to grow and improve, it is a wholesome sign that while gratified over the progress made in the province, the clubs of Mu are already looking toward an enlargement of their scope -a better' year in 1947-48 than in the period just ended.

Having lost two of our clubs by the rearrangement of provinces, and one more through dwindling num-

ber of resident-members, Mu Province now has only 23 clubs. Of this number. 15 during the past yca.r showed a total gain of 377. highest honors for the increase going to Pasadena, Glendale. and San Francisco. On the debit side of the ledger is a total loss of 76, thereby giving the province a net gain of 298 paid memberships which brings the year's total to 1121.

To date 20 of the 23 rate 100% in contributing to all three National projects. Se:tt1ement School, Holt H ouse and the Loan Fund Contributions to these three: amounted to $740 for Settlement School, $147 for Holt House. and the Loan Fund received $168. Although very few of the clubs are fortunate enough to have an active chapter nearby. many have availed themselves of the privilege 01 coopcrati.n&

in one wty o r another with so m e chapter in the provi nce In addition to a substantial amount contributed in cash, scholarship awards, house gifts and rushing parties by various groups, ODe club, Reno, assumes the entire upkeep of the Nevada AJpha H ouse.

AlCowcraft Sales have increased from $7171.08 in 194,.46 to .sn04 . 14 this year, with the four sales being credited to Los Angeles, with $1137.88. San Francisco $908 .32, Sao Diego $847.16 and Albuquerque $700 .79. Almos t certajnly sales of aU of the duhs would have been greater had not supplies at the Arrowcraft Shop still heen in short s upply.

Holt House received $147 as compared with $13 7. and the Loan Fund $168.

Local projects to which the clubs subscribed were many and varied , among them being: Red Cross, underprivileged children, Scholarship at Fresno State College, Y.W.C.A., Glendale Hospital Auxiliary, Campfire Girls, Girl Scouts. Community Chest, Cancer

Fund , Infantile Paralysis Fund , T ubucu lo sis Seal Sale, afghans for Navy Hospital, Crippled Children 's S0ciety of Los Ange les County , Junior Theatre Group, Sunnyhills Orphanage, Rosemary Cottage, Child Wei. fare Boud, Crippled Children's H ome, Wu Orphans, San Francisco Juvenil e Court wards, Braille subscrip· tion to Reader 's Digest for Blind Society, School for Spas tic Children, and Veterans' Christmas Fund. And now as my term of office with you ends, to the members of Grand Council, National officers, Director of Central Office, and particula.c1y to officers and members of aU of my clubs, may I say, many thanks for your cooperation, your loyalty and your interest, for your letters of appreciation, and for the effort expended in complying with all of my requests during these four years, It has been a pleasure to work with and for you, and to count you amon g my fri e nds

Settlement School Reports

REPORT OF CHAIRMAN OF SETTLEMENT SCHOOL COMMITTEE

DURING the recent anti·fratcmity flare which has been receiving undue publicity in magazines and newspapers throughout the land there have been numerous comments, also, in justificati o n of frat erni· ties, their ideals and their values. Of this latter point, Julia Fuqua Ober has sa id, "Only in proportion to the services we render t o a world in need do we justify ou r ri ght to exi stence." While] am sure Mrs. Obet would include as part of these services the values a fraternity gives to its own membership in such fields as lead ership training, nevertheless those services which go beyond these limits are certainly the most tangible, the most noticeable evidences to the world at large of the ideals and standards for which that fraternity stands. That is onc reas on Pi Beta Phi has r eceived such a tremendous ovation from those who und erstand the purposes and values of ou r Settlement School project.

With the endorstment of the Pi Beta Phi Conven· tion held at the Settlement School has continued this past year along t he li nes esta blished. by the lease-agreement with Sevier County, and those recommended by Dr. Holton and Dr. Taylor in their surveys for the future development of our project in the Smolcies.

With 120 High School and 330 g rad e school pupils this past year, it is hoped that the average attendance maintained a sufficient figure to insure the co unty providing at least an additional grade teacher for the coming year. A state sa les tax June I, 1947. is to finance a Bat three hun dred doJlar a yea r raise for aU teachers. and this should make it possible for Gatlinburg to have adequate instructors from county and state funds up to the of teachers they provide.

This year the county provided. 9 grade and H igh School teachers. Pi Beta Phi has again assisted. rna· terially by adding three full-time and one part-time instructors: a music supervisor, a physical education instructor and coach, a supervisor in Arts and Crafts , and a woodworking instructor. These d e partments have shown considerable development and have been greatly appreciated by the Gatlinburg citizens.

Returning to us was Mr. William King, formerly of our school staff, who served this yea r as Superintendent during the leave o f absence granted to fonner Superintendffit Ben Fleming. Ben has decided to enter the field of mathematics te aching without administnltive m;ponsibilities and so wiJJ not be returning to Gatlinburg, whi ch loses to Pi Beta Phi a loyal friend and fine superintendent, as weJI as an excellent first grade teacher since his wife. Josephine, wilJ accompany him to his new position.

Mr. King reporu an unusually high standard of teaching this past year, as once again. after the wartime period which forced the acceptance of teachers without degrees, all High School teachers were graduates of standard colleges. The Iowa Higb Schoo.! Content EXaminations were given the students and the resulting scores rated most favorably with the national a verage.

The Physical Education instructor. Mr. Joe B. Johnson. met the High School students three times a week and the sixth, seventh and eighth grade students twice a week for forty-five minute periods. Ten minutes of each period were SpeDt in exercises, the rest in sports o f various kinds with basketball remain -

ing the majo r event. The boys' team played two tournament games, and the girls' team three, being defeated only in the final game and thereby winning, as a finalist, the fir st basketball trophy for Gatlinburg. Equipment costing $238 was purchased from game receipts and much-needed bleachers were built around the edge of the gymnasium floor to accommodate partially the large crowds that witness all home games. Musically the school has continued to d eve lop under the expert guidance of Mrs. Al etha Armstrong , Music Supervisor. Eac h grade sang numbers a t Assembly periods, the lower six grades presented "The M ad· caps," operetta, and an elementary sc hool chorus sa ng at the Promotion Day exercises. A one-hundred voice High School Chorus was most enthusiastic and developed a considerable appreciation for better music, aided greatly by the playing of records on the new phonograph. Three part songs were introduced for the first time in programs given by the High School Glee Club

In the Arts and Crafts Department a varied program was followed by Miss Elizabeth Petrie, and Mr. Carl Hu skey. This included a variety of woodworking for the boys, and for the girls the weaving, which began with table loom work in the sixth grade and progressed to lo vely material for blouses made by the High School giris, and beginning pottery, leather work and textile decoration, in which the seventh and eighth grade girls painted stencils on cloth. Field trips to weavers, nearby craftspeople, and a new pottery at Pigeon Forge were enjoyed.

Pi Beta Phi made several contributions anCl gifts to the regular schoo l equipment this past year, aside from those given by individual members and clubs To the P.T .A, fund for fluoresc e nt lights in the grade schoo l, the Settlement School treasury conuibuted $200.00; to the Music Department a lovel y phonograph and the start of a record library were given from the Memorial Fund. and fow dozen chairs for use in the music classes were supplied from regular funds; t o the library was added the World Book Encyclopedia; and most expensive and definitely most app reciated was the addition of indoor bathroom facilities at the grade school building. These induded four showers so that the building can be used as a dormitory for the Summer Workshop students.

The County purchased a powe r lawn-mowe r for the playground area, and an additional sump-pump for removing Hood waters fr om around heating equipment. Besides the fluorescent lights mentioned above, the P.T.A. repainted the grade school in attractive pastel shades, and pwchued new shades for many of the class-rooms and a merry·go-round for the children (Its rust day brought Wlergency calls for the nurse to look after youngsters who didn't Imow whirling round and round would upset those not accustomed to it!)

The do rmitories have been about back to pre-war levels. and it was indeed a satisfaction to Know that a " house-fa ther" was in residence in the boy's dormi· tory. this year . once again housed in Pollard Cottage with the girls remaining in Stuart.

Under the director of the house-father, Joe B. Johnson, and Helen Borgstrom, Assistant to the Director, several social alfairs and supervised pia}' periods have been inaugurated for the dormitory

Ping-pong on the porch at Pollard was enjoyed most of the year except when bad weather forced the playen to warmer play-rooms. A V-Teen group sponsored by Helen completed its first year with some degree of success. . .

The time bas now come for the bUilding o f a new grade school. A ccording to the County-Pi Beta Ph i Agre-ement of 1943, the County is to build this on property bought by them PI B eta Phi's land. This plot is now considered madequate by the State School Building Planning who surveyed the Sevier County system this The Court of Sevier County. which has the autho rt ty in all such county school mat t ers, is now stud yi ng various possibilities for the securing of a site ac· ceptable to the state. since they are des iro us o f receiv inll: financial assisunce from the state sales &l part of which has been allocated for school bUilding.

By committee and Grand Council app roval, Mr Philip Elwood. Head of the Landscape Architecture D epartment of Iowa State College. was engaged to make a survey of the Pi Beta Phi property and pre· pare for our consideration a plan for the future development of the grounds and buildings This has grown into a many·!ided service since in his studies he hold occasion to consu lt with a n ew ly-o rganized Gatlinburg City Planning Commiss ion and has worked with th em to a very co ns id era ble degree on the location of water and sewer lines and other civic iQ"!pro': ements planned by Gatlinburg even thougb

I.mi ted budget a nd the f ai lure to date of securing bids they cou ld accep t have so far prevented th e beginning of even the most necessary of these: the water and sewer systems.

Health Center has maintained. its steady program of clinics, calls, and examina ti o ns, albeit there have been requests from time to time for assistance from th e maintenance department t o insure a continued safe Booring for the building. It is with great a nticipation that we await the spading o f the fust shovelful of dirt for the new H ea lth Center for which the c ontract has now been let, after plans and specifications wele approved by the nurse, Grand Council and Comm:ttee, to be erected probably on the highway neat Arrowcraft , in acco rdance w ith Mr_ Elwood's plan.

Fifty -O ne n ew babies were added to the Health Center rolls, and ten extra W e ll Baby Clinics were held last summer-these in a ddition t o the reguw Friday afternoons held regularly each week throughout the year. Two Pre·School Clinics again brought th e assistance of State Dentists and Nutritio nists It w ould seem that with these, and the regular school examinati o ns, plus the corrective work in dentistry , ey e examinations and glasses, tonsillectomies, and extra milk that Nurse Marjorie has been able t o supp ly from gifts to the H eal th Center work. the children of GatJinburg and the nearby community are indetd being served by Pi Beta Phi in a most satisfactory manner.

The purchase of eight dark·blue full-lcogth curtains has made it possible to use the projector during daytime visits to schoo ls, and thereby give health instruction in an interesting manner, m uch enjoyed by the audience.

Pi Beta Phi ' s service to G atlin burg is most personal, undoubtedly, in the relationships between " Miz Chal· men" and her "childrco" and Miss Meta and her weavers, who call her "Boss Ladr'" As Marjo r ie has said, '' It is through the wo rk 0 the H ealth Center that one feels the pulse of the community."

Arrowcraft reached an all-time high with the payment of a.lmost $' ,000.00 to 120 weavers in Novem· ber, 1946 Shelves were well 6Jttd (or the summer tourist season and it is expected that the alumnz club orders may be more adequately 611ed this faU in recent yeus. Though cooct'med for a tune by the return of considerable quantities of articles by some a l umnI! clubs after a few yean of "no ret urns;' Mrs. Ethel Snow, IlS Mrowenft's capable Manager, with Laura remaining even after her marriage this yea r, Mrs . Co le still serving as book-keepa, adequate assistants and a new cash·register and refini$hed Boors in the sales rooms, is ready for the strenuous days ahead which they will meet in the same efficient manner as in the past.

Miss Meta has been plagued with anothe r Wage and Hour Survey, which seems to be "(or"cr with us," but even so has produced a number of new designs whic h have been enthwiastically recei ved as a general rule. Among these is the lovely Queen Anne luncheon set made of linen imported from Ireland. Cotto n boucle in warm colors was used in the design o f new curtains, woven by Arrowcraft for the Moun · tain View H ote l lobby. A promise of more thread wd even cashmer e and necktie warp, indicates that soo n most o f the items which bad to be discontinued during the war will again be in production

The Weavers' Guil d bas had an interesting year, the bighlight bei ng the Christmas meeting held in the mai n sales r oom at Arr nwcraft, where the highbeamed ceiling, the lovely Ollistmas angels made by Miss Meta, burning logs in the fireplace and the sweet sound of Christmas carols played on the new phonograph gave many of the seventy w eavers attending the n icest party of th eir experience.

The year 1946-47 brought to com pletio n the three year period of experimentation which was originally o utlined for the project now known as th e Summer Workshop in Crafts and Community Recr eation, conducted by Pi Beta Phi and the University of Ten · nessee. This summer our staff included as Directo r, Miss Marion Heard of the University nf Tennessee craft depa.rtment, who was co-Director last summer, instructor in Jewelry and Metalcra.ft ; Mrs . Mary Elizabeth Starr Sullivan, Pi Beta. Phi member, formerly at the University of W ashin gton and of Oregon, weaving instructor; June Glass, also from the sity of Tennessee, teaching re<reational crafts and leatherwork ; Mary Katherin e O verholt. Pi Phi from Ames. assistant in crafts_ Alrs. Josephine Bille, with us for the past two summers ., Instructor in Community Recreation served this summer in a dual capacity, continuing her class teaching on a laboratory basis a nd serving as Dean of Women and Social Director. She organized the student body for such routine procedwes as the "line" in the dining-room, the clearing of tables, and for their play times together Un der her guidance a very gratifying school· spirit developed, especidly a.mo ng those living at the School, with a son of undesignated student governmcot wh ich e liminated the need f or many rules in blaclc and white and still maintained well-reg u lated do rmitories

Mr. All en Eaton, outstanding authority on Am erica n Crafts and author of the excellent book: "Handicra fts of the Southern H ighl a nd s," was speci.d lec. turer for a three-week period, overlapping the two sessions of the Summer Workshop In charge of the dining-r oom and kitchen were (our Institutional Man..

age-ment Maj ors selected by Miss Jes sie H a rris , of the University of Tennessee, two graduate studen ts from her department dividing the planning and business dUlies, with another University of Tennessee student and one from J owa State College assisting. This gave them exce llent tr aining and provided the students with well-balanced and nicely varied meals.

Ninety-five students, including several Pi Phis. were enro ll ed during the s ix ·week period, fcom thirtythree states and Hawaii. Refunds of pre'registration deposits had to be returned to an additional twentyseven because of lack of h o u sing faciliti es . For the first time this year Pi Peta Phi undertook to house a large majority o f the students. With the of the University of Tennes see the grade schoo l budding was converted into an unbelievably delightful dormitory, with the entrance hall an attractive lounge easy chairs, couches, lamps and coffee table. The Untversity was able to allocate to the Summer Workshop some of th e materials furni shed t o them by th e Government fr om surplus commodities and this allowed the furni shi ng of this dormitory with folding cots, mattresses, mattress covers, blankets, sheets , pillow cases, ch ests of drawers, and mirrors sufficient to house thirty students, or more. They also furnished fold ing tabl es and chairs f or class room use. Pi Beta Phi provided pillows, lamps, chairs, screens, and the other necessa ry it ems to make hou si ng possible. as well as additional dishes and silver for the dining· room. Other Summer Workshop students were hou sed in Stuart Dormit ory (a total of ten, with two in a r oom ) and two in single room s at Health Center.

While some of the students, such as Mrs O. W. Bahl, who drove fr om Cosby each day to attend classes, were taking the courses in order to produce beautiful articles for their own home or personal use, others such as the two owners of a tea-room and gift shop in the Ozark Mountains, hope to introduce their own handiwork into commercial avenues. The large however, are expecting to use the knowledge gained in t eac hing: one, for example, to the vetenns in an Iowa City hospital; another, who will soon join her radiobiologist husband abroad, to children in Japan; and many to rural communities all over the United States where the people need the same sort of economic assistance that Pi Beta Phi has given so adequately to Gatlinburg througb Arrowcraft.

Of the Open H ouse at the close of the Worksh op, "Miss Georgie" (our weaver of lovely afghans) wrote: "The work was exquisite and the display arrangement very. very artistic We had a very large crowd and some very surprised people at the variety and splendid workmanship."

While everyone bas cooperated beautifully to make this Workshop a success, J wish particularly to mt:ntion the inspirational guidance given this project by Miss Jessie W. Harris, without whose vision and ability it could not have been accomplished, and the great contribution made by Miss Ruth Dyer, Director, upon whose capable shoulders were necessarily placed the endless details of preparation in converting the grade school into a dormitory and making r eady the entire Settlement School facilities for the sueable in8ux of Summer Worlcshop students, forty-two of whom were housed at the same time and some sixtyseven fed at the School. My very deepest thanks to them and to th ose who have contributed in other ways to make thjs venture possible: Miss Meta, who designeq the cover for the attractive announcements, HeJen Borgstrom, Miss Hodgens Arlie and Elvin. and othas of our regular school staff; Miss Ruth Buckley.

Mr. William Bevis, and those from the University of Tennessee who have consistently worked with Pi Phi on Workshop plans

Dr. William Taylor, of the University of Kentucky, who made the extensive survey for the Pi Phi Settlement School in 1941, said of the Workshop in a letter sent me recently: "I was greatly pleased to receive information concerning your summer workshop. This is an excellent service that should r esu lt in wide. sp re ad interest in your program and in large lea rning in the arts and crafts field. I am delighted that the University of Tennessee is cooperating with you so helpfully,"

It is my own personal h ope that Pi Beta Phi ca n continue in some form the idea which gave the Sum. mer Workshop birth. since it benefits not only Gatlin · burg hut many pa rts of the United States by increasing knowledge of the crafts and their place in child and adult education. Surely we might well continue thi s particular phase of our project when it reaches out ove r such a large area and brings heart-warming words of appreciation from those interested in the beneficial influence of craft education.

It was my privilege to clos e my term of office as Settlement School Chairman with a visit to Gatlinburg to assist with the opening of this year's Summer Workshop. 1 also had the pleasure of attending the opening night of the Gateway Stock Company , a group of graduates of the Ame ri ca n Academy of Dramatic Art under the guidan ce of Mr. John Ricp· ards. who leased the High School Audit ori um for a nine-weeks period this summer and have been present· ing exceptionally well·produced plays to GatlinburB and its tourists.

The timing of this visit was such that I was able to assist with the hostessing when the Grand Council, Province Presidents and Vice Presidents arrived for their meeting this June. A trip of the School was arranged for them, starting at the Mountain View H o tel thr ough the pasture to Health Center where Marjorie Chalmers showed her excellent system ot records; to Stuart Cottage, Pollard and Teachers Cottages to see where and how our staff and dormitor y students Jive; through the converted Grade School Dorm itory ; to Arrowaaft where Mrs. Snow and Miss Meta aplained their respective parts of this fine estab lishment; through the Arts and Crafts and High School buildings where classes of the Works hop were in process and where the visiting officers heard the new phonograph and met Mrs. Armstrong and Mrs Ann Lighter. librarian. It was indeed a real joy to meet these fine leaders of our Fraternity and to help show them as much as could be "walked and talked" a.bo ut the Settlement School "on the ground" in the tIme which could be allocated for this in their full and interesting program.

It has been a real privilege to serve on the Com· mittee that has, for a relatively sho rt time, concerned itself with the shaping of those "most realistic, practical , motivating forces in the world"-the ideals of Pi Beta Phi as exemplified in our Settlement School project. "The joys of knowing you" have been great, and the experience gained will be a neve r-ending source of satisfaction. T o those who have served with me, my deepest thaw for unfailing cooperation and thoughtful consideration of all matters presented to us for action; to those just now entering their term of office, may you know the same joy and happiness we have known as you work together for Pi Beta Phi 's " demonstration of practical idealism."

REPORT OF DIRECTOR

HERE at the Settlement School, each day is filled With duties and problems. To pause and review the past year is to c«311 happy associ.tiODS WJth staff members, students, townspeople, and visiting Pi Phis paying both official and casual visits to the School. Some of the problems that loomed $0 large at the time they occurred are minimized by the later view point. The whole picture adds up to just year of service to the community where in past reus Pi Beta Phi has contributed so much of value.

My work hao; bt-en much easier by having Helen Borgstrom, North Carolioa A, as. my able assistant. The growth of the Summer Workshop has meant a great deal of added worle in the way of correspond· ence. r egutfation a.nd booldc«ping which was apably handled by Helm.

CommMni1l

The }'ear has seen many changes in the village Some were good others detracted from the charm of the place. Two new buildings have been built that are decided additions to the town. The new Methodist Church, built of native stone, o n the hill above the Cliff Dwellers Shop, is one of these. Since the faJl conference that congregation has had a full time minis ter. While the church is not yet complete th e congregation is holding services there. Another building is the large structure that Rellie Maples erected on the main stree t Jt is in the same type of uchilecture as the New Gatlinburg Inn and is most attractive. It houses the second movie theater in town, a number of shops with offices on the secood Boor Other cheap and poorly constructed buildings, bousing various forms of entertainment and shops are to be deplored.

The water and sewer systems so badly needed exist only 00 paper. The lowest bid for them was over a million dollars which is too much (or the village to finance. We do have a Dew fire tru ck that pumps water from streams when manned by CommWlity socia l life has been much more active with many organizations again functioning after war time s lumps. The Little Pigeon Alumnz Club became active again and enjoyed several fine meetings. Founders' Day Wal celebrated with the newly organized Knoxville Club at the Gatlinburg home of Miss jeS5ie Harris and Mi ss Ida Anders of the University of Tennessee. The American ugioa and Legion Auxil iary were both active. The legion held volley ball games in the school gymnasium during the winter. They celebrated Navy Day with a big b3nquet at one of the hotels. The Auxiliary held a number of functions a.lso in the gymnasium; a CJuistmas party for • their children and covered dish suppers for their families. In the spring thev entertained the boys and &irIs of the school basketball teams at a lovely banquet at the Inn. The Ladies Bridge Oub sponsored a Polio Fund benefit and the Village Library Board held their usual benefit to meet their )-early budget. In the name of the Fraternity, the Director entertained the ladies of the three church societies at meetings at Teacher's Cottage and the February meeting of the Garden Oub was also held here.

The first peace time Christmas was marked by the lovt'iy tree across from the ArrowcraJt shop • rightly lighted du.ring the holiday week. The Baptist and Methodist churches held a union service the evening of Christmas Sunday which was followed by carol singing around the lighted tree. Union services

were also held at Thanksgiving time. Mrs Armstrong. our music teacher, was in charge of the mWiic both times.

Miss Meta arranged a very lovely Christmas party (or her Weavers. It wa.s held in the beautifully decorated Arrowcraft shop. She had Christmas records played on the new school record player. Refreshments in holiday colors and :l gift exchange made it a Vt'ry happy aHair.

Srhool

Less trouble! with changlnS; personnel in the teach. ing staff was experienced this year than for several years. In the hiAh school where we had 116 students registered, Mr. Wm. King replaced Ren Fleming as Principal. Ben spent the year at Columbia working on an advanced degree. Mrs. Estel Owenby and Mr Kinp: divided the classes in science and mathematics Mrs . Ann lighter taught English and WaJ in charge of the libr.ry Mrs Reba Hood was the teacher of history and social science. The other County teacher was Miss Sue Landrum, the vocational teacher of home-economics. The specia l teacheJ's hired by the Fraternity were Mr. j. B. Johnson, physical education, Mrs Stanley Armstrong. music, :Miss Elizabeth Petrie, crafts and weaving and Mr. Carl Huskey woodworking. The work of this (acuIty resulted in a well rounded program. The senior class was smaJl, only eleven graduating at the Commencement exercises in May

Many eX1Clcurricuiar activities interested th e students during the year. Under Mr. Johnson basketball enjoyed a great popularity. The teams played many games both at home and away. In the County Tournament at Seviervill e the Girl' s learn won the Runner·up trophy. A branch of the National Beta Club was organized (or the students having the higher averages. Three of the girls attended the stale convention of the societ:y in Nashville. Miss Landrum sponsored a club of her home economics girls caJled Future Home Makers of America and H elen worked with a Y -Teen group of girls. OurinA: the year the three upper classes .11 presented plays. The seniors made their trip to Myrtle Btach in Carolina. Parties for the different classes were held at intervals the most elaborate bein,c;: the Junior ba.nquet to the Seniors and Faculty at the Riv erside Hotel. Following the Class night program we entertained the seniors and faculty at a party at Teachers' Cottage.

Nine teachers taught in the Elementary grades, two o( them having two grades io a room. Mrs Armstrong worked with the grade school children to Rive h\'O very fine programs. The first one was the good pro · gram caUed Carols of Lands. given for the entire school at Christmas time. Later in the year she presented the annual play o.r operetta caJled Madcaps The costumes were colorful and the singing of high quality. An Open House held one evening gave the teachers opportunity to show the parents the work being done by the children. Miss Petrie's classes made a good showing with added interest in the exhibits of craft work done in the differen t grades. There were twenty four graduates of the eighth grade" aU of whom expect to enter high school in the fall.

The P T. A. was very active a ll year, contributing much to the school program Bingo games durinS the summer, rummage sales and sUppeJ'S were all used to earn money for their projects. The most ambitious one of these was to install fluorescent lights in the

old grade school building . They also pajd for painting the interior of this building with paint furnished by the county. They operated the school hot Iunch program for the children of the Elementary School. Some needed shades and playground equipment were also purchued with their funds Pi Beta Phi installed new indoor toilets and showers in the same building. The cou nty purchased a new sump pump (or the 1a.rge furnace room We hope that this will elim in ate having a flooded basement the next time there is a Hood in the village. Committee purchased a fine record player from the Memorial Fund and forty eight folding chairs for the music room . Clubs and friends have helped with gifts of records that are enjoyed by the whole schoo l.

Dormitor,

Improvements made during the past year include refinishing the Boors in the downstairs at Pollard and upstairs a t Stuart. Some new linens, dishes and silver, available for the first time since the war, were SKUred for the house. The help situation was a difficult one all yeu. Mi ss Hodgen, in charge of the housekeeping. · has trained four cooks and two laundresses besides doing the work herself when it was necessuy.

Dormitory life has been pleasant for the twelve children living at the school. Mr. Johnson was in charge of the four boys at Pollard . He was generous with his time and his car taking the boys on anum· ber of interesting trips and hikes A ping pong table on the porch provided a great deal of entertainment when the weather was suitable. Of the eight gids living at Stuart, five were freshmen. Miss Hodgen s upervises their duties in the dining room and kitchen and senres as their housemother. Helen helped the dormitory students in a social way with the planning of parties and picnics for the group and their friends. All have settled their cash obligations in full and with the exception of the two girls who graduated, all expect to return next fall.

Farm

Carl Ogle, fum manager, has carried on the work of the farm through the usual trials and difficulties. The power has a way of going off just when we have baby chicks in the brooder houses, • fox or possum will get in the chicken yuds, rain wets the hay etc. The dormitory boys, with their regular assigned jobs, help with the farm work. When there is nothing else to do they attack the wood pile of fallen timbers fr om our own place, cutting Jogs for the fires we burn in the fireplaces in spring and fall.

The registered attle in our herd were tested (or T. B. and Bang's Disease by competent veteri· narians. The results were negative in both cases. Another improvement was to have the apple orchard pruned by a class of Veterans from Sevierville. These men were students of a former agricultwe teachu at the school, Mr. Willie Cae. Our cows furnish milk and cream for our table. When the family is small we make butter and sell surplus .m.i1k. Other supplies to the kitchen from the farm such 2S e.us, chickens, vegetables and honey are used on the table with any swplw sold to the M ountai n View Hotel. We raise the yearl, supply of potatoes and can many beans, tomatoes, spinach, etc.

Arrowmr/I

This Jeu bas been marked by increased production, sales, and economic bcIp to the community as is evi· denced by the largest monthly pay roll evu r ecorded . Around Ouistmu time 120 weavers received ;llmost

')000 .00 for one month ' s work. Beginning with the first of the year, the poorer weavers have weeded out and production somewhat curtailed. A number of new craft shops have opened in Gatlinburg and vicinity since Jast year. With business divided among more establishments and with Jess ready money in circu lation many shops have reported poorer business than last year. Our shop, carrying only quality merchandise, with large sales to 141 alumnz clubs, 1) active chapters and the four Guild shops enjoyed an increased volume of sa les and income. This was partly due to the ne<:essary raise in our prices. Increased COsts all alo ng the line made this step absolutely imperative and one that could n o longer be delayed.

An innovation much appreciated at the shop has been the new cash register. It is especially useful si nce the state sales tax of 20/0 on the dollar went into effect June first.

Oubs can expect their orders to be more nearly filled this coming year but it is well to remember that there will never be enough of certain articles to fiJI the demand. Mrs. Snow will still have to divide that supply as impartially as possible. Neckties will be available in limited quantities and added to the old favorites you will 6nd some new designs from Miss Meta's creative loom.

Heallh CUI"

Another evidence of the changing conditions in Gatlinburg is the fact that there are now two dentists well established in town After many yeU'S of teaching a nd preaching dental hygiene it is very gratifying to the Pi Phi DUlSe to have people putting her advice into practice .Mrs. Chalmers has been able to aid those not able to help themselves through extra funds co nuibuted by friends and 2; ell r International Sorority. Last summer, two state dentists and two nutritionists with the help of our DurSC, held two Pre-School Clinics in the district . The o n e at the Glades school was especially well attended and the one held at ow Health Center resulted in some good corrective measures being taken on the part of the parents.

Mrs Chalmers held ten Well-Baby Clinics during the summc.r in addition to her regular Friday alter· noon Clinics which go on all through the year. Other corrective measures such as glasses and eye examinations. tonsillectomies, medicines, and milk have been furnished when needed. The l ocal doctors and the small hospitals in Sevierville and Maryville have co· operated to make gift money help as many children as possible. Fifty two babies were added to the rolls during the year. The regular inoculations. examina· tions and inspections were made at Pi Phi School, the Banner School, Cartertown. and GJades Schools. New film has added to the eHectiveness of the projector used to teach lessons in health throughout the distria.

We are looking forward to the new building where we hope to continue ow contribution to the health and well being of Gatlinburg and surrounding areas. The generous $100.00 gift of the Cincinnati Alumna: Club will be wed for equipment there.

Gifts to the school have been most generous from alumnI: clubs and active chapters. Christmas was made merrier for the children of the first five grades and others by the gifts we received. The students in the English cJasscs profited from the speech records sent to the school. At Teacher's Cottage we have a new door bell and J have a much needed light over my desk. It is impossible to enumerate all of the things sme.. to the school during the year but ",-e remember

that each gift is prompted by • loving thought and a re gnteful for them all. It has been a priviieAe to work with tM Settlement School Committee and Gn.nd Council. They have

Dever failed to show deep undcrstandi.ng and interest in the School.

COMMITTEE ON EXTENSION

THE yeat has been • fruitful ODe. both fcom the accomplisbment and the forward.looking angle5 . The lambda Phi group at Bradley University in Peoria. JlJinois, hearne the 92nd chapter of Pi Bda Phi on May 16 and 17. This group had been organized for forty-seven years and brings much prestige and a fine membership to Pi Beta Phi. The chaptt"r is an exceedingly strong one.

The Batrd of Trustees of the College of Pugel Sound, Tacoma, Washington, ha.s granted the oldest girls' sorority on that campus, pe rmissi on to petition Pi Beta Phi for a charter. Thi s organization has an enviable position on its campus.

The Knoxville, TmnesStt, Alumn:r Club has btt'n very enthusiastic about a chapter established at the University of Tennessee, and permission has betn granted to colonize there. This is under the vision of Mrs. Wild and the Knoxville Club.

Numerouj inquiries have come from man y local groups who wish to petition for a charter. Among

Othese were groups from Kent State University. Kent, Ohio; Creighton University, Omaha, Nebraska ; Arkansas State College, J onesboro, ArkansaJ ; Carroll College, Waukesha, Wisconsin; Whitman Walla Walla, Washington. Some o f these organizationJ have had the active and enthusiastic support of the Alumnae Clubs in the province concerned and others have not. Grand Council hu given careful consideration to those who have desired affiliation, and, though some of these for variouj reasons were not given encourage· ment , Council is always mindful of any new phases which may develop.

It has been very gratifying to find so much interes t among many college and university administrators in desiring local groups to become membus of N P.C. I wish to acknowledge gratefully the assistan ce of Miss Onken, the AlumnI! Clubs, and the various alummr with whom I have had many contacts.

COMMITTEE OF SCHOLARSHIP

NeE again the scholarship chairman must begin her re port with the statement that this past year has been a very difficult one for all the chapters. It was hoped that by this time after the war all colleges would have been adjusted, but the increased enroll· m e nt of veterans has caused the late issuance of grades, if at all, and oft en mu ch lower ones for the individual girl. Some colleges l ast fall had not even issued the grades for the previous quarter. The clo. sses were often very large !tnd the lack of textbooks a problem. One class of 400 had only eight textbooks for the entire class, and those studenu sitting in the rear of the hall had difficulty in hearing suf· ficiently to take adequate not es on the lecture. You can readily Stt why some of our averages are not so high as we desired .

The committee is happy to report fourteen chapters first on their campuses; thirty·two others in the upper third; n ine first for part of the year; twenty·one in the middle third; nine in the lower third, but five at the bottom. This shows some improvem e nt over the year 1944·45, but not a remarkable one. There were fourteen firsts instead of twelve; nine in the lower third instead of twelve, but five at the bottom instead of four. Of the fourteen chapters first for the yea r 1945·46, six stood first for the second time--Nova Scotia A, North Carolina Illin ois n J Kansas D. Colorado A, and Arkansas A; three were first for the third year-Nova Scotia A, North Carolina A, and JIIin ois II.

Of the ninety chapters, thirty -eight showed a gain over the year 1944 .4 5, while thirty·four showed a loss; eleven records were incomplete or unavailabl e. The average for all the provinces was 25 176 for the year 1944-4S while for the year 1945·46 it was lS .740, 3. gain of .564 Lambda Province had the largest number of chapters-six-to show a gain, whjJe Epsilon had the largest number-five-to show a loss. Iota is s till the banner province with all seven chapters in the upper third, two of them being first for two consecutive years and four being first for the year 1945·46. Utah A was not included in Iota for it was changed from Mu province just at the last convention.

The chapters and alumna: do not always realize that the scholarship report must of necessity be for the

year previous and not for the present year; i e., this report is for the year 1945-46 and not for the year 1946·47. Also, some do not fully understand the use of the Pi Phi formula in determining the comparative average of the chapters. The grade for each semester is averaged separately and then the results averaged for the year, unless the college regi strar issues the yea rly average.

The committee appreciates the acti on of Grand Council in awarding again the scholarship ring to those girls with the highest average in their chapters. Some of the chapters, especially the Canadian ones, are unable to get their grades until in the summer and therefore can not send application f o r the ring at this time The committee feels that this award has proved to be an added incentive to high scholarship. It is hoped that the names of all those girls receiving this award can be publi shed in the ARRow. Chapters not se nding in the ring form are Ontario B, W est Virginia A, Florida r, Manitoba A, Alberta A, Idaho A, and California B .

All were greatly pleased at the fine number of honor students published in the D ecember A1I.Row, the hundred ten-heing forty-th ree more than that of the previous year. We trust that this number will be greatly increased for this present year

This report is an endeavour to give a picture of the work of the committee and of the scholarship conditionJ in the different chapters. We are reminded of a statue of a young girl in Washington, D .C. She is idly leafing through a huge book and has come a lm os t to the end of that book. But the statue is not the signi6cao t thing. The significant thing is a se nten ce carved on the pedestal on which the statue rests : "All th at is Past is but Prologue." It is hoped that the work of the committee will result in greater improvement next year SO that we may truthfully say, AII that is Past is but Prologue ."

The national chairman wishes to express her sincere appreciatio n to Mi ss Onken, Beatrice Purdunn Felmley, Lucile Carson, Barbara Merrick, and to the province presidents for their helpful assistance and inspiration in the work for higher scholarship

C O M MITT EE ON TRANSFE RS

HIS year the work of the Transfer Committee has continued as usu al.

I n the Fall the chapters were as ked. to report tr ansfers and n on-r et urning undergraduates.

All but seven sent in reports, indicating th a t fortyfour girls had left thirty chapters to go to twent y· seven other campuses where we have chapters Three hundred and nine for various reasons had oot able to keep up th e ir active membership until gradua· tion.

During the course of the year the active chapters were reminded of their duties toward transfers who

Tcome to their campuses and of the rules regarding affil ia tion. The advisory committee was a lso given sugges tions which would assist in helping these girls get adjusted to their new campus .

All non-returning undergraduates were told of the possi bilities of their alumna status. Where appropriate alu mnr clubs were sent their names. The Province Vice· Presid ents were a lso given these lists.

A great deal of individual correspondence was also handled.

COMMI TTEE ON SOCIAL EXCHANGE

HE Committee on Social Exchang e has had a busy year welcom i ng into its folds several new members who have proven to be very well-chosen and enthusiastic workers. The chapters have tak e n on a renewed inte rest since the convention a t Swampscott and Rushing reports, which included information and Boats, homecoming songs and stunts were unusually good, and in most instances, appropriate for use in the Social Exchange Bull et in.

Since ma terial on Founders' Day comes in after the celebration of that event, it is n ot published. until the following Spring, so it can be used and the grades recorded. The grade from th e Social Committee, therefore, combin es the grade o f the Day report of the 19 46-47 schoo l year with the Rush report of th e 1947·48 school year. For this reason it is wise for the chap ter chairman to instruct her successo r fully so her good work of the year before will not be discounted. by la t e or incomplete reports from the oew chairman.

There were seventy-eight chapters who contributed during the school year of 1946-47 Thirteen chapters failed to report

With a score of ten (10) representing a perfect report thirteen chapters rate d a to p grade. They are : Ohio E, Ohio Z, Maryland B. Virginia A, Virginia r. North Carolina B, Indian a r , Mis50uri B, Kansas A, Kansas B, Colorado A, Colorado B, and Washingtoo B

Iota Province and Gamma Province are the top raters for the most chapters receiving a grade of ten

per cent. Epsi.lon Prov in ce had more cha p ters reporting than any other.

Washington B is the w i nner for co-ope:ration, g etting a ten plu s ( 10) on Rushing and ten (10) on their Fou nders' Day report.

Nevada A wins the award for the m os t comp l ete an d original work o n their Rush i ng, Homeco m i ng , Stunts re po rt. I t was a thing of beauty and a joy forever The chai rman had foll owed every instruction given in the information from the Social Exchang e letter to her and had added some items which had Dot even requested. She eveD included some of the more attractive and original favors thq used at some of the parties

Clever songs (both parodies and originals) were turned in by nume rous chapters Some of the cleverest came from Kcntu clcy A. Ont.rio B, Ohio Z, fIIino i!!. B-.1., Ohio E and lIIinois Z

Other niches in the Social Exchange " Hall of Fame " can be claimed by the following chapters: North Carolina B for their clever TI}.{E party, Illinois H fo r their Teleph o ne Float in their Homecoming co ntest, which won .first place; and their clever parti es for the "fntemity exchange" entertainments for the men o n campus A sp«ial honorab le mention goes to Idaho A for the m ost unusual plan for a pledge danc e patterned after the pop ular th eme " Heaven Sent" and their unique tea du ring rushing season which carried o ut a thODe called " Pi Phi Fish Bowl. "

The chairman of the Social Exchange

has tnJO)'ed this yeu of close conuet with the activities of the chapters and is ' -cry proud of the fine ,. ork of her province chairmen. It is a privilege to be :associated w i th Miss Onken and " S" Putdunn

COMMITTEE ON FRATERNITY MUSIC

FTER three years of stops and starts, and throuJil:h the continued co-opecation of many Pi Phis. the Music Committee presents the new song book, "Songs of Pi Beta Phi:' We it with pride in Pi Phi songs, and in the hope that it may serve to make those songs even morc dear and familiar to u s all.

Included in the new boole: arc thirty-thret songs, twenty·five of which arc arranged for three or (our part group harmony. Also included are all six of the 1946 Convention songs.

These six songs were at Convention by a double quartette under the direction of Marilyn Wiegner of ,Missouri .A, who took over all musical direction at Convention on very short notice, and to whom we all owe a vo te of thanks.

Winner of the Song Vase, by Convention vote, was Utah A, with "Pi Phi Chant." Honorable Mention was awuded to Ohio B for "In Praise." The other four songs aJ'e equally lovely, and will be sure

Yto become popular throughout the Fraternity.

Throughout the year musical news of all chapters ha.s been exchanged through periodic letters sent out by the Music Committee. As a result of these exchanges, we have received many excellent ideu for chapter singing, and they have served to unify Out interest in singing. Many chapters won special recognition o n their campuses, and all are making special efforts to improve their group presentation on Pi Phi songs.

The committee feels this has been a most successful musica l yeu, thanks to the interest and co-operation of Pi Phis everywhere. And we are sure next yeat wiIl be evt'n better, and we look for still further accomphshments.

We extt'nd our sincere good wishes to you all.

COMMITTEE ON CHAPER O NS

OUR wirman of this committee, since she took over last September, has spen t most of her time in getting acquainted with the work. Miss Lockett, the chairman, has been an invaluable help

The cards and data concerning chaperons in our Pi Beta Phi houses came in quite promptly from all corresponding secretaries, only a few needing a reminder.

Our chaperons number sixty-three this year, of whom twenty-two are new, one a Pi Phi. From the data recei ved all of these chaperons are women of education, of culture and reijnement whose inBu e nc(! will be reflected in atmosphere of the various Pi Beta Phi homes in which they preside. With college men in numbers back on our campuses the women's fraternity houses are teeming with social activity and the fine type of chaptron is needed to help our girls keep the proper balance.

An esp«ially pleasing bit of news is that Oregon State College at Corvallis is again offering a summer Conference for Housemothers, Resident Counselors.

Tand those in charge of Student Women's Living Groups. We hope that many of our chaperons who have not had the privilege of attending one of these conferences at Purdue University or Oregon State College will be able to take advantage of the Conference this year

This Committee expresses its sincere appreciation to Grand Council for its support, to ow Grand President and Grand Vice-President for their spl e ndid letters to the Province President and Province VicePresidents. With such wonderfully inspiring messages coming monthly to ou r Province officers it is no wonder that Pi Beta Phi holds its high position in the fratern ity world. To our Grand Secretary for her encouraging letters I am grateful; to Central Office also a note of thanks is due, and my very sp«iaJ thanks to Miss Jennie Lockett f or her Joving assistance.

HOME FOR PI PHIS COMMITTEE

HE Pi Phi H omes Committee was unable to make its start until in January, on Mrs. Catfs birthday, when it launched its first announcement and sent letters to all the Alumnz Clubs and Active Chapters asking for suggestions. The responses have been most gratifying and all but two have expressed enthusiasm and wmingness to co-operate and some have carried very practica l suggestions and pledges amounting to $12)0.00 have been offered. We wish, however, we had 100 % replies.

We are now planning to stnd out a questionnaire so that we may know just what type of home you really wish to have us work on so that we may de· velop a definite for the next Conven. tion.

We have reports from quite a large number of homes now functioning with success and we

learning much of their methods of operation. We are crys tallizing our own ideas and we would like yours as promptly as possible

We are surp ri sed and pleased to find that Pi Phi is not alone in making plans for their e lderly members. Alpha Chi has made extensive plans to the poi nt of having architectural drawings made; Tri Delt has purchased land and is considering allowing couples to build cottages about a central home; Kappa has a beautiful "Hearthstone" for permanent guests in Winter Parle, Florida, and Theta has started her survey.

We must keep in step with the movement of the times, or if possible, keep three steps ahead!

HOLT HOUSE COMMITTEE

IT HAS BEEN seven years since Holt House was purchased and restored. ]0 this short time, the House has been visited by people from all over the United States and Canada. These guests have not only included many members of ou r Fraternity, but those belonging to other fraternal groups, and many nonfraternal. The committee is impressed by the favorabl e comments of warm hospitality and friendlin ess th ese visitors express th ey found while at H o lt Hou se . This is indeed th e spirit our founders instilled in OUr fraternity-good will. better understanding and friendliness with all whom we meet.

Th e number of a lumnz clubs contributing to the H olt H ouse Fund this year, is most encouraging. The Kan sas City. Missouri alumne club contributed the largest amount-$100. The clubs from Dallas, Texas, and Pittsburgh, Pennsy lvania. tie for second highest, contributing $:W. The third high est was $25 -from M onmouth, Illin ois; Galesburg, Ill i nois; De· troit, Michigan, and M anhattan, Kansas.

Th e active chapters increased their contributions this past year. louisiana A and Ulinois E were highesteach contributing $40. Ulinois A and Oklahoma A, tie for second highest-each donating $3'.

The highe st contributing provinces (alumnre) were Beta, Epsilon a nd Eta. Every club in Epsilon province contributed

Th e highest contributing provinces (active) were Kappa, Eta and Jota. Every chapter in Kappa province contributed.

The wishes to thank the following donors for beautifu l and usefu l gifts: Epsilon province (or a silver tea service; Mr . Cleone Soule.

The use of H o lt House is constantly in demand by fraternal, educational, business and social organizations in the Monmouth community. Mrs. C. C. Carey, who presides so efficiently and graciously as hostess, is largely responsib le for the popularity of the House. All members will be pleased to know that Mrs. Carey was ini tiated into Pi Beta Phi last spring.

The chairman is very grateful to Mrs. Philip P. Murkland , treasurer, who has been hurried in making ou t the financial r epo rt b eca use of conflicting circumstances, for her thorough and timely report.

Letters from Mrs. F. P. Lippman and Mrs. William Bohan have been inspiring and helpful. Mrs. Jack Woodward of M onmouth, who has the responsibility of taking care of immediate needs at Holt Hou se and watching over improvements being made, the chairman thanks her for her cooperation, and appreciates the time she gives as a committee member.

A recent men's fraternity magazine r efers to Miss Onken as "A Great Fraternity Leader"; the chairman says she is the .";reatest. Her patience and guidan ce has been invaluable to the comm itt ee. T o Mrs. Alford, Mrs. Wild, Mrs. Carson, Directo r of Central Office, Mrs. Simmons and provin ce officers, the chairman is most grateful for the assistance they have given her and th e committee.
