There have been those who would change both the ideals and the organization of fraternity. They would seek to control by legislation some of those things which exist. and grow only in our hearts. I cannot concur with that concept of brotherhood by which any individual or group (3n circumscribe nor impose a scope of friendship and brotherhood .

I further d1allenge the philosophy that any segment of our fraternal organization or activity should be abolished because membership may not be universal. or because of ··Heartache:· Who suggest that we abolish competitive sport because one team loses? Is it fair to discontinue colleges because some cannot attend? ShaH we do away with examinations and term marks because some may not pass?

Instead it becomes our responsibility that the opportunities and the benefits of Brolherhood find opportunities for associationship and that we increase the number of our groups SO that more may partake of their benefits. Happiness and opportunity are not items of commerce They ca nnot be bought or sold and they cannot be joined. Happiness and opportunity and the full use and realization thereof spring from within each one of us.

THE ARROW OF PI BETA PHI

VOLUME 69

EDITORIALS

0/ Ch an ges

NUMBER 1

Amy Burnham Onken , beloved Grand President, has retired after forty years of solendid to her Fratemitv-nine of them. from 1912 to 1921 as Grand Secretary. the remainin it 32 as Grand Preside nt. Sh e has seen Pi Beta Phi grow from 40 chapters to 98, with a total livin g membershiD of more than 52 , 000. She has guided the Fraternity through three wars and the diffi· cult years following two of them: through two depressions whi ch threatened the very existen ces of and fraternity groups alike; she has led our organization to ever-growing strength and undiminished ideals of group and personal conduct; she has besides been a great leader in every movement involving the (raternity system-as Pi Phi's delegate to NPC , an office which will be hers throu.llh the next meetin)! of NPC in the Fall of 1953: as a member of the Inte,f raternity Research and Advisory Council; as the contact member of NPC for the International Council of Women, and as chairman {or two terms of NPCs committee on education. To Miss Onken th e entire fraternity system owes mu ch-but most of all does her own fraternity owe to her a debt of gratitude and deep affection wh ich can never be paid.

The Convention just past gave to her material evidence of its feeling when it voted her unanimously the title of Honorary Grand President, and a gift of $100 a month for life; besides this her friends at Convention gave her a large sum "fo r a trip," or for anything she desires, and with it a lovely token in the shape of a slender circle of sapphires and peads, with thre e large pearl , in the center--one for the actives, one for the alumnre, and onc for the officers. Th e banquet at the close of Convenlion ended in a heart-felt tribute of devotion to her, fitting dimax of a Con · vention which held more than the usual share of enthusiasm and Pi Phi lo yalty. The feeling of Pi Beta Phi for their Grand President who has more than any other person typified the fraternity , is well -expressed in Ruth Cogshall's editorial in the COllvelllion Daily:

" On ce in a lifetime someone comes along " so go the words of a no talgic tune we sang so plaintively in the 20·s. The next line of th e song that is running through our hearts today is something like this ... "making happy dreams come true ."

Once in our lifetime such a person did co me along. And loday when the 38th Convention of Pi Beta Phi is drawing to its dose, we want to take this opportunity to pay tribute to the one woman who has made not only personal dreams of a happy fraternity life come true, but the dreams of thousands of Pi Beta Phis that form the golden chain of friendship around the world.

Miss Onken, you are Pi Beta Phj. In your own inimitable way you have slipped into the hearts of all wearers of th e arrow and have g jven us by rour example of fine Jiving and loving and understanding a pattern. to follow for a life of d e voted service and a goal to attain in co mplete human understanding. Few if any will ever attain the h eig hts you have reached, but you have mad e the trying worth while.

If ever a woman exemplified all things th a t are hon es t and just lhings that a re pure and tru e and lovely, it is our grand GRAND PRESIDENT " beyond compare."

And SO we repeat the words we used on the happy occasion of our own chapter'S installation banquet over twenty-five years ago:

A perfect woman , nobly planned

To warn. to comfort. and command.

And yet a spirit still and bright

With something of angelic

Lolita Prouty, for the past six years Grand Treasurer , felt that her home and family ties would necessitate her resignation . Again the Fraternity was losi ng mu ch . in her experience. h e r wisdom in financial affairs, ber charm in personal relationships. She has given to Pi Beta Phi years of

service as tr eas ur er of [h e Settlement Sc hool before coming on Grand Council. She will co ntinu e to serve in another office, vacated by the resignation of L illian Beck Holton , Counsellor for Chapter H ouse Corporations. Mrs Holton has give n great prestige and importa n ce to her office, has systematized its work, and as a final se rvi ce has done a history of chapter house building in Pi Beta Phi -anot he r office r we ca n ill spa re!

Sc h ol ars h ips

F o r t h e coming yea r, sc hol a rs hi ps wi ll again be avai lab le to Pi Beta Phis who ca n "ualify for them on the basis of need, fraternity se rvice and loyalty, activity parti c ipation and scholastic record . These a re give n (TOm three separate funds : th e California Al p h a Fund makes available thr ee scho lars h ips of $340 eac h for membe rs. Appli ca tions for these sc hol a rs hi ps should be ,ell 1 10 Mrs. W B. Owens, 593 Alvarado Row, Stanford University by M ay 15 A personal letter should be written by applicants cove rin g the four points upon which the a w a rd s arc ba ed, and must be accompanied by a letter of reco mmendation from the Advisory Committee of h e r chapt er.

The Ru th Barrett Smith Scholarship is given by the Alumnae D epart me nt , and app li catio ns for this shou ld be sent to the Grand Vi ce President by May 15.

Th e H a rriet Ruth erford Johnston e Sc hol arS hips are awarded by the nationa l f rate r nity, and t hei r n umb er depends upon the amount of money avai lable in th e Scholarship Fund, augmen t ed by contributions from active c hapters. This year eight scho la rships were possible from this fund

Each year it is h a rd for Grand Council to decide on the award of these sc holar ship s- so many worthy girl s must be refu sed because there is just not money enough to supp ly all needs. Surely here is a project which shou ld hav e e ver .i ncreasi n g suppo rt from our members! For many girls the receipt of one of these $ 300.00 gif t s means t h e diffe ren ce between leaving co Jl ege a nd stayi ng to graduate. and this fund s hould be great ly en la rged by contribution s; ge n erous contributions these s h ou ld be too , for surely th is work is one of Our major projects , and should be great ly expanded. Dur ing the past yea r a grJ.cious gift of S I 000.00 from Mary l. Sproul, Pcnnsylvania A, has m ade it poss ihl e to add 25.00 to each of the Ruth Blrrett Smith

Chapter letters will appear in the December and March issues only, with a brief report of late honors only in May.

Pl ease note the many changes in officers' names and addresses-be sure to use those whi ch are listed in the Directory in this issue. Note especially the newly elected Grand Council : Grand President, Marianne Reid Wild (Mrs. Rob ert S.) ; Grand Vice President, Alice Weber Man s6e ld (Mrs. W. H.); Grand Secretary, Lucile Douglass Carson (Mrs. Floyd H.); Grand Treasurer, Olivia Smith Moore (Mrs. Henry Moore, Jr.); ARROW Editor, Adele Taylor Alford (Mrs. T. N.) ; Director of Rushing and Pledge Training, Helen Anderson Lewis (Mrs. Benjamin C.); Director of Extension, Ruth Williams Hansen (Mrs. Paul).

We had a vacancy on the ARROW staff, too , through the resignation of Mercedes Jorguleseo IS Ex ch ange editor-thij we have filled by the appointment of Ruth Wilson Cogshall, Kentucky A, who was formerly a province vice-president and a province president, and who has served as editor of the Con "ell/ion Daily for the past six Conventions, a task she has done brilliantly and efficiently.

Gladys Scivally, always efficient Director of Central Offi ce has resigned. Her place will be taken by Janet Patton, of Decatur, delegate to Convention from the Decatur Club.

01 SadneH

Last May the Fraternity was saddened to learn of th e death of Harriet Rutherford Johnstone, Washington A, former province vi ce president, and National Scholarship Chairman at the time of her death after a long illness. H e r interest De"er flagged , and to Harriet the Fraternity owes much of the high scholastic standing of its chapte rs on th e ir campuses . Hers was fine service to Pi Beta Phi, and her friendship was a cherished possession of the many Pi Phis who .. ere privileged to know her . Sh e leav es six sis te rs , one of whom, Annabel , is also a Pi Phi- to them goes the sym· pathy of the Fraternity .

Of Citizenship

The Editor of the ARROW returned from Convention happy that so mu ch of the discussion theft had been on subjects related to Ameri ca nization and good citize nshi p. Especially notable were the resolution introduced by Marie Tunshall lingo, Gamma Province V ICe President, outgrowth of her recent work in connection with George Mason and the Bill of Ri gh ts. and the insistence of Dorothy Deemer Houghton in her address that our first duty to our country is to use our privileges intelligently Said Mrs. Houghton • " The second challenge I will give you is to see that all of OUf members have a raging epidemic of Amer ican ism Forty-nine m "llion women have the privilege of voting this year. Never more than one-third of our women have used this privilege 10 the thirty·two years since we have had the franchise . I hope that Pi Beta Phi will put on a drive for one hundred per cent voting members in every dub and that our members will not only vote but know for whom they are voting and what the candidate sta nds for, and if he or she will keep the campaign promises. In our last national e l ection on ly 51.9 per ce nt of eligible voters went to the polls and in 1950 one of the most critical years in all our history. only 43 per cent took the trouble to vote ."

And NOW , LET' S ALL GET OUT AND VOTE IN NOVEMBER!

An Appeal

from VIRGINI A BRACKElT GREEN, new member Selliem ell l School COlllmillee:

The story of Convention must wait for the D ecember ARROw-but now to Kappa Provin ce and the Houston Club /(ocs thanks from all who were fortunate enough to enjoy their delightful hos pi tality and to know their charm . It was a Convention long to be remembered for its fine spirit and its happin ess. To all our good friends there we say "thank you!"

At last, thanks to lega cies and wise planning , the Staff House in Gatlinburg nears comp letio n The attractive building , loca t ed on grounds adjoining the Mountain View Hotel commands one of the few unobstructed views of th e mountains . Its completion will help to remove a stu mbling b lock in the progress of t h e Pi Be ta Phi - University of Tennessee Summer Workc;hup-hou5ing . Bes ides the li ving room , kitchen , and dining room facilities, to accommodate the Summer Work · shop, there are e leven hedrooms and the D irector's sitting room

Of course. the house will fe<Juire furnishings and there is quite: J " Wishing Li st." Even It deepfreeze is needed but at the top of the list come the essentials. Th e Committee hopes that individuals will wish to give money to furnish a bedroom or for a spec ifi c pi ece of furniture , such as a cherry chest, a table, a lamp These cou ld honor som e loy al Pi Phi friend or be in memory of a relative or good friend of P i Beta Phi. Due recognition will be given the donors in ea ch room.

1952 is our fortieth anniversary year and such a milestone merits very special recognition This is a fitt ing birthday project for every club and chapter in addition to their usual annual contribution upon which the Settlement School depends for its running expenses. Even though one helps earn the regular S S. contributions there will also be a warm glow of satisfaction for every Pi Phi who has a part in making the home of our staff comfortabl e and attractive, and in broadening the efficiency of Our service to others. The Settlement School has always brought to the fraternity widespread publicity of the highest order. Now we have a new opportunity to show OUf appreciation.

The American Principle

Th e Ameri can government was established on th e pr inc ipl e th a t men are endowed with the right to be fr ee persons, and that this n at ural ri g ht was in g rai ned into the very texture of th e life of man befor e any fo rm of community organization Or gov ernm e nt began. To that should be added its co roll a ry: No st a te, nation, nor associatio n of nations ca n legi timately make any abridgment of this inherent freedam . Upon this foundation of freedom , man is e n a bled to make co ntra ctural re lations voluntarily through association with his fellow-men.

This con ce pt of humtn r ights rests upon a valid h e ritage- th e heritage of the Ten Commandments, th e Gold e n Rul e, the D e clar ation of Ind ependence, and the Bill of Rights. Ea ch of th es e expressions of philosophy , t este d by time , presupposes th e inherency of the natural rights of ma n as a gift of life itse lf , wherever and whenever it began. Th e stars need no human decl a ra t io n of th eir rea l ity, inviolability, and g randeur In th e nature of th e universe , the rights of man to li fe and freedom are as one with the stars.

This moral co ncept, whi ch makes the universe in telligible and ra t iona l , dedares that no person can rationa lly be deprived of hi s l ife. libert y, or pr op e rt y-h is expression of being a person-except thr o ug h h is own denial of t h e same rights to any other person.

MESSAGE OF THE GRAND PRESIDENT

To Pi Bel" Phi:

THOSE of us who know Pi Beta Phi as a way of life towards which we are striving and no t just as a name which we a re privileged to use are inueasingly conscious of the vast stores of strength, lo urage and inspiration inherent in our fraternity _ None of US will ever believe th e would ·be-phil oso phers of today who tell us that nothing has permanent value or meaning and that there are therefore no abidi ng sta ndards by which we may 'determine our goals. OUf Founders knew very sure ly tha.t in th e ueed which they gave us there are the standards which will never cease to right , to be livable, and to make for true happiness let us , the Pi Beta Phis who art' present at this Thirty-eighth Convention of our fraternity , dedicate ourse lves and it to a conscious, de· termined trungs are raJr beyond compare"! This Conven· tion cou ld no more worthy goa l than this which th e true of Pi Beta Phi building of beoautiful characters. Many years ago' Daniel Websaid: " I( we work upon marble, it will pt:rish: If we work upon brus , time will efface it; if we rear temples , they will crumble to dust But if we work u pon men's imm orta l minds, if we imbue them with high principl es, with the just fear of God and love o r their fellowmen , we o n those tablets something which no time can effect and whi ch will bright en all eternity ." So it is with Pi Beta Phi! What a pnceless to work with the " immortal minds" of the leaders among co lleg e women of today, upon the quality o f whose kadu· sh!p the of the whole world depends. May thiS Convention a Pi Beta Phi more nearly worthy than ever before of such a privilege!

No fraternity officer should speak to her fta· teroily, today, without giving her best to try to in· sure that what she says will mean not on ly better fratermty but better , better informed, more effed:JVe cdnros of two great Nations 1D which fraternities function , The two yrau "since Jasper" have made it possible for us to know more about our terrible enemy, Communi s m, that we knew thOl . There have been victories for Americanism but this is no time for comp lacency: it is the time for an arousC'd, well -informed. and actively·fighting every· American in Canada and the United States There is , perhaps. no field in whi ch intelligent a lertness is more important than in that of education-one of major co ncern to a fraternity No one can doubt that the person who teaches has influence upon his stu· dents. Mr. J, B. M athews. "a scholar, student, ioof Communism for twenty years , and the first director of research fat the House Un-American Activities speaking at Brown Univer. s ity , this spring, said that college and university professors have been " the largest sing le professional unit supporting Communists and Communist fronts, " and that 28 % of all top-collaborators with Red fronts in recent yean have been professo rs No smallest village school , no largest is safe from planned Communist propaganda either fcom text books o r from Communists or their sy mpathizers o n the teacbiDA staff. The Communist approach, which should by now be recognized, of arousing qu estio ning of all authority, of instilling the idea that only the younA are truly alert and intelligent and that conse·

quentJy only they should make decisions which will affect them, and of presenting half truths twisted into li es is , tili being only too effective, It is, understa ndably, not easy for students on one cam pus to kn ow or to believe that student outbursts on their campus are n ot indigenous to it but instead are---as they only too often 2Ce--a part of a nati o n -w ide foreign.conceived plan, a thing planted upon man) cam puses . Some yea rs ago, racial incidents in barbt'r "hops in fifty or mote co llege towns seemed in each spontaneous and almost accidental Aare-ups : mstead they were the results of a Communist direcsent ou t fro m New York headquarters, a dira-· lIVe seen and read there by the Dean of one of our largest universities , It is only too possib le that the recent, disgraceful "panty raids" stemmed from the sort of directive On some campuses the lead ers in the raids were not students were not residents of the college town, and were not even Itnown by the students themselves . The 51. l.,o,liJ DemoN'al said editorially : " The stupid dangerous raids of girls ' dormitories and sorority houses on so many university campuses have been shocking. The demonstrations atc m o re than co llege gags, the aubeorance of youth Personal hazard and wanton damage are n o t pra nlu ," Prom the officers of another NPC fraternity there has come a report from a chapter house whose was raided during a "panty raid " which was followed by othe r equally seriow displays of radical thinking , This chaperon, who had fa ced the raiders and forced them to leave her house, said: "There is pretty vicious underneath all this , somefar bigger than a culminatio!1 of childish misdirected energy and Silly pranks. This is no mere flood of energy because it is Spring or because it is being done on othe r campuses or because school is nearlv out. It is being directed from somewhere and the Administratio n is growing very conscious of that. Don't think that this will die out with Aimmer vacation It is somethinA too big and I honestly feel this is only the beginning-this isn't student devilment: this is pla""ed through and through and th e s tudents ue like sheep following each idea as it is introduced No one knows where the idea comes from, no leaders stand out, and I don't think it is NSA, I honestly believe it is the biggest illustration of plain Communism we have had to face and since there is no focal point on whic h to work, it is th e ftlghtening ." That so far as the fraternity nationally has been able to learn no Pi Beta Phi chapter or member had any part in en couraging the raids but instead each acted calmly and with dignity when confronted with a most difficult situation is reason for great pride. ThiJ is all the more reason why both actives an d alumna: should know more of the truth abou t these campus disturbances and those responsible for them , 50 that Pi Beta Phis may be fore·warned and fore-armed for what mal' happen in the future , College students shou ld refuse to be "like s heep" follo""ing each new idea whi ch , whatever its source, unquestionably follows the line of Communist thinking and planning.

There are encouraging signs of an awakening s tudent body in America Organi za ti ons like the MacArthur Clubs (non-politi ca l and using Genera l M :lc Anhur' s name only because they pattern their 6ght agalOst Communism upon his) and th e Inter·

collegiate Society of Individualists, under the presi · dency of William Buckley, author of that important boole, "God and Man It Yale," have al their avowed pwpose the destruction of Communism in America and the preservation of our American way of life

An awakened student body will mean an intelligent, well-informed one, no longer the often·unwitting dupe of Communists but instead one which will loole beneath the surface of the so-cal led idealism which stems from sources which have no true ideals so far as the good of the individual is concerned; wiIJ trace agitations to their real sources; and will know what these sources are be-fore it aligm itself with them . As actives and alumnte may we apply to ourselves the prayer of Dr. Marshall, former Senate Chaplain : "Give us dear vision that we may know where to stand and what to stand for-because unless we stand for something. we shll fall for anything!"

In a day when much is ,.id about the "rights" of students, it is well to remember that Dean Strozier of the University of Chicago, was one of the educators at the meeting of the National Association of Deans of Women who brought out excellentJy the fact that students have no rights except those which entail responsibility which they are willing and able to alSUme. Dean Williamson of Minnesota sa.id: "Decisions must be made not by a plebecite but by someone who has to talee responsibility for the consequences."

Fralernities are still being subjected to efforts to force them to give up their basic right to choose their memMtS on the basis of the things which make for their internal harmony and effective functioning and which serve the best interests of the organizations as wholes. Becoming a member of a national (raternity is • voluntary act but it imposes upon the person who becomes a member a distin ct obligation to make decisions on a national rather than a personal and local basis. It is not loyalty to the pledges which one made upon initiation to attempt to destroy from within the fraternity which one because through the years it had proved itself a unified , harmonious, happy and constructive organization , beloved by its members and prOmOting beautiful stand&Ids. When it is no longer possible in America for a group of friends to decide who is to be asked to become one of that group on the basis of mutual agreement between the group and the individual there will be nothing Idt of 1M true America which has Biven us the highest standard of living, education, and enjoyment which the world has ever known and which has provided for the individual whose desires arc good .n unequaled opportunity to become what he is willing to work hard to become. It is well to remember the comment of Mr Jerome Koehler, Supreme President of Phi Kappa, that the Communists- "pious chant of blending all our people into a strong united democracy has every evidmce of being a sham and a doublecroS5 Their true intent appears to be to divide and separate; to array class aga mst class; race against ra ce, creed against creed:At the 19)2 meeting of NADW, 0,. Oougl... Kelley, professor of criminology at the University of California, spealc.ing on the subject "Psychiatry and Religion-Twin Paths to Peace," said that in his opinIon there is today u never before a worlc.i.og-towards a real brotherhood of man but that it will not be sooner than after ten more generations that the world will be ready for anytb.ios approaching oat: hundred percent brotherhood.

Undesirable newsptpel and magazine publicity for fraternities bas seemed less flagrant this past

year. For the first time, lif" for example, hal given publicity (0 fraternities which did not include .ny of the heretofore apparently inevitable destructive items National Panhellenic Conference and Pi Beta Pbi are opposed to any except truly pleasing tod co nstructive publkity and chapters must continue to get permission to be featured, especially in the magarines whose Palt records have been largely unacceptable. It is still true that the best publicity and the best public relations for fraternities come from the livin.q: of fraternity ideals.

The Grand President believes that the past two years have been ones of true growth for Pi Beta Phi both in internal strength and in prestige Since less and less time is alloted at conventions for the reading of reports, the fraternity must n ow depend to • somewhat alarming degree upon the wi ll ingness of individual members to read thoughtfully and intelligently the printed reports in Information AR· ROWS Every fratunity needs an informed membership. We should not fail to give our fraternity just that. Knowing Pi Beta Phi as it really is will mean a pride in it consistent with its outstanding rlace of leadership among college fraternities. Each 0 us bas reason to be very grateful that when she was cboosing her fratemity she was given the opportunity to choose Pi Beta Phi!

The honors won by chapters and their members tell a remarkable story of acbievements. The mort than eight hundred dollars which it cost the fraternity to have for this Convention the printed reports of the chapter delegates will be money well-spolt i£ the proof given there of the strength and prestige of the fratemi? on its ninety·seven campuses be comes a part 0 our working knowledge of Pi Seta Phis. Th ese reports are supp lemented by the confidentia l reports made annually by Deans of Women , reports whi ch show a truly great appreciation for the cooperation, helpfulness, and high standards of out active chapters and recognition of their strength and that of the fraternity nationally

The college year the latest for which data is available, was a disappointment scholastically since it found only eleven chapters 611t on their ca mpuses for the entire year, although eleveo more were first for one semester or term and fifty were in the upper third The fratemity's scholastic goal of "every chapter in the uppn thi.rd on its comparative scholarship list" is not impossible of achievement: it will be reached when every chap ter gives its mem o bers such a realization of personal responsibility that no member will be willinS to do less well than she can. Pelhaps the report for 19:51-:52 will show the hoped ·for improvement in scho larship: the delegates to this co nvention sho uld go back determined to give their chapten just the spark which they neN to mea n that 19:52-:53 will give to the fraternity the best year scholastically that it has ever had. What. wonderful tribute to Harriet Johnstone that would be!

The co ntacts between province officers and Grand Council mtmbers and betwten officels and chapters have. .lmost without exception, been dose and constructive. The Grand President believes that the Chapter Presidents' Workshops and the interim con · ferences of provin ce officers and members of Gn.nd Council have proved their value as tnioing schools and that nothing should be allowed to prevent the continuing of these workshops or to change their gm . enl plan of functioning.

It is probable that no other fraternity, man ' s or woman·s. has the background of endowments wisely

IOvested th at Pi Beta Phi has. If the dollar had the va lu e today ""hi ch it had even just ten years ago, the would have few if any fina ncial problems. Declining interest rates and decreased purchasi ng power of the dollar are inevitably reSected in the fraternity's economy. The Grand Presid e nt believes that PI Beta Phi should not deviate from her establi s hed policy of investing endowment funds only in bonds of at least A grade or in chapter house loans , ince the thing of primary importance is the security o f these trust funds She believes, however, that the endowment for the Contingent Fund , from which th e running expenses o f the frater-nity are paid and from which deficit5 in othe r departments must be taken ca re of either thr ough outright appropriations or loans, has now rea ched the point where , for the present at lea st, it is not th e wisest policy to continue to build It up More fu ll information on this point will be given at the time wh e n Conventio n co nsiders the recommendati o n that the Contingent Endowment Fund be frozen at its curre nt figure and that a greater proportioo of the mitiation fee now go direct to th e Contingent Fund itself. The same general eco nomic si tuation applies to the consideration of th e r ecommendatioD for a triennial convention Pi Beta Phi gives to its chapt er! much more in the way of pt1'so nal supervision a nd assistance, working materials, co ntacts. and training than any othe r NPC fraternity and none of this important se rvice should be curtailed : if at all possible, though. it shou ld be continued Without increasing the national finan ci al obligauons of active members and pledges since their parents are faced with greatly increased costs not just (o r fraternity membership but also for other phase of a co ll ege expe rien ce.

The Sett leme nt School co nt i nu t:s tu be the Sleatest philanthropic project of any fraternity and to give and greatly nO!ded assistance to the commun it y c hosen so many years ago as the one whi c h seemed ca pable of ix:m:liling most from the servi ce and help whi c h Pi Beta Phi wished to give. Today gives proof of the wi sdo m of that c hoice : the help df the fra· ternity has played a tremendous part in making poss ible the co nditi o ns there as they are today and it is still a thing vital to the education. he.alth and economic stability of the community. It should be a matter of deep thankfulness for every Pi Beta Phi that the Vision of the 1910 COllvention which made the Settlement School possible was one which could br translated into the actualities of today at Gatlinburg From Ruth Barrett Smith. Chairman of the Settlement School Committee, will come a detailed report of the worle and the achievements of the past year but the Grand Presiden t can not fail to express her pride in th ese a nd h er ,ltratitude to the Committee members and to the Settlement School staff for the way in which they represent the spirit of the fraternity in their 8uidance of this , its thrilling altruistic service. Pi Beta Phis shou ld know more about, tak e fuller personal advantage of, and feel a deeper pride in the out5tanding Summer Crafts' Works hop which 8ives both a continent-wide service to handcrafts and an equally widespread rec og nition to Pi Beta Phi. The Committee lost. Ihi s year, tw o exceedi ngly constructive and devoted members, Oli via Smith Moore and Harri et Goodsell Rauch. and it welcomed as their successors Theresa Gibson Graham and Virgi nia Brackett Green Pi Beta Phi continues to be the envy of other fraternities because of its privilege of rest o rin g the place 'J f its founding and of making it a cen ter of fr.arernity, co mmunity and co llege interest and serv-

ice. It is indetd a beautiful and worthy memorial t o the fraternity 's foundinJ:; and it assumell increasing significance as the days when we had Founders becollle farther and farther in the past. The future of the (raternily depends not just upon today and tom o rrow; it depends too upon yesterday and Holl H ouse helps us to remember- and to be grateful! M embers of the frat ernity must surely IinJ incrraslng lOy In the Emma Harper Turner Fund as It.'I loving service to Pi Phis brings comfort pea ce of mind . and a sure knowledg e of true friend · s hips to them during days that are hard The of Ethel Hogan Copp, first chairman of th e Com miuet which administers the Fund , dnd of lillinn Farrington M cNaught, hl:r successo r , ha"c made not only the giving but also the receivinp; an abiding joy Contributions to thi s Fund for help to the fraternity 's own should be increased many-fold. with «:a r h pa ss ing year.

Because, this sp ring , Pi Beta Phi lost Harriet Rut herford J ohnsto ne who had given yeArs of her lile: 10 Jevo ted service to the cause of high sc holarship for the fraternity , there is special happin ess in know. 109 that the undergraduate scho larships, estab lished in appr«iat ion for her leadership in thi s important field were set up whil e s he could know of the help which they give. That the need for such linancial assistance is great is found in th e fa ct that ther e were forty applications this spring, f o r the three California Alpha scholarships-twice as many as ever before thi.rty-seven fo r the Harriet J oh n stone and seVenteen for the Ruth Barrett Smith scholarships, representing fifty-two different actives.

Contributions to Save the Children hav e again been encou raged and have been made under the supe r vi sian of Lo is Franklin Stoolman. The of th e Pi Phis who have had a part in giving thi s desper · ately needed help to little c hildr e n in the fo reij(n lands where reconstruction has still not been able t o wipe out rle<;olation a nd dire povertv have been wa rm ed beyond measure by expressions of appreciat io n. A typi cal letter from a littl e Gr eek girl will give pleasure-and a smile, t OO, even to the Pi Phi s who had no part in her gifts. She said: "I received your parcel a nd thank you very mu c h for the care and pains you took for me. I wish to heaven that you should :\Iways be healthy to co ntinu e th e philanthropi c .'lood which makes people gr.aldul to you. "

Pi Beta Phi 's extension has continued to be conservative, with each applying group being given co urteous attention but with no group being e n · couraged unless it represented strengt h both in its co ll ege and in itse lf. Tea r hers' have, since 1949 bee n a fi e ld ope n to all NPC fraternities largely because the strong teachers' colleges now give a broad general edu cation. just as do the so-called "agricu ltural and mechanical co ll eges" o n whose campuses our fraternity has established s uch s tr o ng a nd fine chapters For the first time, a group from a teachers' college i s being allowed to present its petition to a Pi Beta Phi Conventi on .

ANY BURNHAM: ONKEN

MESSAG E OF TH E GRAND VIC E- PRESID ENT

T HAS hem said "Tis the torch the prople (011 ow, whoever the barer may be." True it is that peop le an ideal. But it is 11/10 true that tM leaders bear the torch, and it is perfectly possible for them to tak e the left turn when th e turn to the right would have been the better o ne.

With th e knOWledge that our lead ers in Pi Beta Phi have been the officer:s of the clubs, and th e Prov1Dce Vice-.Presidents, we th erefore want to begin o ur report to you for the past interim of convention by sayi ng words of praise for their untiring effo rts, and their always willing cooperation That they have gooe in the proper direction we may be sure if we may judge by 1M summarizing of reports which rome to us from various sources.

Because so much depends upon membership it

It can gratefully be reported that 113 a result of tM measures passed at the last Convention dealing with the of the A lumnr Departme nt, and b«ausc of the splendid work of the Province Vi ce Presidenu, and the club chairmen, the Alu mnr Fun J has paid off its defi c it and can anticipate solvency next yor

seems a good point of departure for our review of the year just past. Total membership for the Alumn r Department has again grown as it has each year in tM past, but Dot to the degree we feel it can Or s ho uld have. Securing a larger paid membership is definitely the cha ll enge (or the future. This year the Lincoln Alumn.: Club resolved to increase its membership, and it did by twe:nty-three additional members It seems to us that their resolve should be the: resolve of every one of the 2'2 alumnr dubs. Only then caD we see the gap narrowed between the number of resident members and the paid members . The following provinces record a gain in me:mbcrship fo r th e year; Alph a East, Alpha West, Beta , D e lta, Epsilon, Eta , Iota, Kappa , Lambda and Mu. One hundred and twelve individual alumna! clubs showed gains. To the Portl and , Oregon Alumn.: Club g0C5 the honor of the greatest gllin-sixty-ni ne more members than last year

Se:venteen of the clubs are 100% in mm'lbership, while several more missed this by only one Or two members. Those clubs enlisting all of th eir resident members and in so me instanc6 bringing into active me:mbership alumnr from nearby commuOJti cs are: Lakeland , Fla., for the 2' yealS of its existence as an alum nz club, Hutchin500, Kan. 100% since 1946 , and Pensacola , Fla ., Northeastern Wyoming, Mun cie, Ind iana, H arrisburg-CuJis le. Pa .,

Avon , ilL, Wenatchee, Wash " Southwestern Indiana , Lake Charles, La ., Elkins, W Va ., M c Alester, Okla Osceola, Ark. , Pauls Valley, Okla" Salano County, CaJif., Sanford , Fla " and Athens , Ga , The last two mentioned, Sanford a.nd Athens , were chu· tered this year and submitted their applications for their charters with every resident me:mber signing the applicatio n aDd paying her dues.

We lre happy to announce that ten new clubs were charte red this year. We extend a most cordial welcome to thC$(' clubs in Bakers6eld , California; Southwestern Michigan ; Yuba·Sutter California; Arlington -Alexandria, Virginia; Co lumbus, Indiana ; Sanford, Florida ; Canton, Ohio : Falls City, Ne· braska ; Terre Haut e, Indiana; and Athen s, G eo rgia

These. together with the eight clubs charte red last year, bring the total oC new clubs for th e interim of Convention to eighteen,

There are nineteen alumnllt clubs having a paid membership of over one hundred members, These are the clubs in Columbus, Ohio, Cleveland-East, Ohio, Toledo, Ohio, Washington, D ,C. Senior, Detroit, Michigan, Indianapolis , Indiana, Kansas City, Mis· souri, St. Louis, Missouri , Peoria, Illinois, Denver, Colorado, Dallas, Texas, Houston, Texas, Oklahoma City , Oklahoma, Tulsa , Oklahoma Portland , Oregon, Seattle, Washington , Los Angeles, California, Pasa· dena, California, and San Diego, California.

Alpha East and Theta Provinces have had what they called the Whole Arrow Contest for membership , The contest was based on per cent of membership with 25% counting for the head of the arrow, 50% for the shaft, and an additional 25% for the feathers The Province Vi ce· President in each of these two provinces gave awards to the winning membership chairman for greatest increase ove r I membership, gre;ltest per cent increase:, greatest number of :len· iors enrolled, and first to have 100 % members hip . Each st ressed that the PVP Membersh ip award be the means of expressing loyalty to their as well as to their club.

The projects of the fraternity tie the bonds of membership more tightly Jt is true that we share our knowledge of the inner signi.ficance of Pi Beta Phi, and that we have close and dear friends over the country with whom we enjoy these fraternity experiences, but it is when we work together for the welfare of a common objective that the scope of our national organization takes on added meaninlt , ThIS has been a rather spe<ial year for the Settlement School. It has been the fortieth anniversary of that year in which we began our work in Gatlinburg , This mi lestone was remembered by many clubs with added gifts which will be used to furnish the new Staff House ,

The eight leading contributors with a donation of $200.00 or more are: S1. Louis, Mo ., $1000 .00; Philadelphia. Pa , $500.00; Wis. $42' .00; Cleveland East, Ohio $350 .00; Kansas City , Mo. $300 .00; Indianapolis, Ind , $210.00; and Northern New Jersey, and Denver, Colo. with $200.00 each. The following provinces showed an in crease in dona· tions : Beta, Epsilon, Zeta , Eta , Theta and Io ta Additio nal revenue for the Settlement School is denved fr"m th e sale of Arrow cr2ft products and from the Magazine Agency On the basis of money ac tually received by the Arrowcraft Department from clubs, and not including the 25% discount to the club nor total amount charged against the clubs, those havlOg paid $1000.00 Or more are : ChampaignUrbana, Ill inois, MilwaukC'e , Wisconsin, Coos County Oregon, Philadelphia, Pennsylva n ia, Portland , Oregon ,

The on ly n ewcome r to this particular grouping of dubs is Coos County, Oregon. Hats are o ff to thu small club of KYentttn for this outstanding record Many dubs find it advantageous to sell products the yeu around, some dubs h ave two sales a year-spring and fall, while Philadelphia a n d Cleveland West held sales during the year.

We have here an untou ched potential so urc e of revenue and greater effort is urged upon clubs and chapters aJilc:e

A review of North Callahao ' s n ew book "Smokey M ou ntain Country" says " If you have visi ted theSmolcies in Tennessee and North Carolina, you do not need to be told of th e wood carving, pottery, and weaving revived by the folk schools, or the vestigial traces of :I culture which until quite reo ct:lltly rese mbled that of the grea t· great-g randpar ents:' We can Ix proud that we have had a part in th e revival of the crafts, of which the reviev.'er speJ.ks , and that we have had a guiding hand in the trllo ition from res emblance to past genera tions of mountaineers to citizens of a modern community largely suppo rted by th e tourist trade and subject to the influences of eco nomi cs and weadlCr.

The lovely Holt H ouse film has been warmly re o ceived by an increasing of clubs this year and has brought th e charm of our Founding home to reality for Pi Phis many miles away from Monmouth . Three alumna: clubs in addition to the local one held in Holt Hou se during the course of the year. They were Avon , Illinois , Burlington, I owa, and Mt PlcuJ.llt, Iowa , A small group came from Iowa City, Iowa , and Springfield, J1Jinois had hoped to schedule a but were finally unable to do so Illinois Eta c hartered a bus and the entire active chapter visited H o lt Hou se, Some special memorial gifts have been received for the and are valued additions to our furnishing , Appealing and welcome as these special gifts are we must not lose sight of the fact that it is the regular donation which pays the hostess , the insurance, the utilities, and the general h o usekeeping and maintenance bills Appeals have bem made for 19th century photographs of Pi Phis to be placed in the lovely antique album. and for old I C and Pi Phi pins for the shadow box given by the Burlington, Iowa club , Kansas City, M o., gave to Holt H ouse, while Mo nmouth and Pittsburgh each donated $n,oo Donations from th e other alumnllt clubs rememberi ng this project of the f rat ernit y ranged beneath that figure with the follow. ing provin ces increasing the amount contributed over that given last year: Alpha West, Epsilon, Zeta , Eta

and Iota-with Theta Province giVIng an amount equal to total co ntributions of last year.

A quotation from Charles Dickens comes to mind for it seems to speak SO perf«t:ly of our Emma Harper Turner Memorial Fund . H e said "No one is useless in this world who lightens the burden of anyone else." The letteC5 from the recipients of these gifts of remembran ce leave no doubt in our minds but that this fund does indeed lighten the burden of th e members who have been rem embered. It must be recalled that this fund has a two fold means of assistance fOI the principal is used for chapter house building loans. Twenty-three clubs gave $25.00 Or more. St. louis leads with a contribution of $2n .00 Kansas City, Mo., gave $1 n. Los Angeles, lndiana polis. Indiana and Berkeley, California, $50,00 each. Salem, Oregon, $35.00, San Mateo, California, $30 .00 and Columbus, Ohio, Toledo, Ohio, Washington D .C. Senior, Minn eapolis Aft e rn oon, Bloomfield H ills, Michigan , Madison Wis., San Bernardino, Calif., Detroit Mich.. San Francisco, Calif., Southwestt'rn Indiana , Chi cago North , Denver, Colo.. Pittsburgh, San Diego Cahf.. ind Tulsa , Okla ., each gave $25.00.

The three most essential elements Qf a successful alumnr club are friendliness an informed membership, and a working membership To have achieved the record of support of Our three fraternity projt'C1s in which provinces, Alpha East, Delta , Epsilon Zeta, Theta and Iota were 100% and 207 clubs made co ntributi ons to all three projt'C1s, not to speak of the many other activities of the clubs, we can be sure that we do havt' a working memberShip. The natural result of working together i.s greater friendliness, and in many instances an informed membership. And so Pi Beta Phi clubs do possns in l arge measure those essentia l qualities for success.

To report merely th e work for our three projects wou ld be to give an i), half of the picture. One hun· dred and fifty-two clubs sent year books and program schedUles which showed cart'ful and advanced plan· ning. It I S through the required meetings , at least, that members refresh their memories and keep well informe.1 about their fraternity. One program chairman wrote that their programs had ve.ry special this ye.r for tach emphasized something strictly Pi Phi A planned program with set dates is one assur:l.OCe for a successful year.

Assistance to and work with active chapters CODtinues (0 be of pal'1ltDOunt interest to all clubs-not limited to those with a chapter .t hand. Portland , Maine, has sent II box of snacks to Maine Alpha while Bt1ffalo held a dorm shower of food for the three New York chapters. Others maintained corresponden ce with a nearby chapter Or chapters. Arlington Illinois . has adopted the plan of Portland , Maine, of giving an award to th e outstandinJl sophomore in its province. There have been almost as many ways of expressing "active chapter interest" as thc:re are clubs. Jf all linancial aid givCD to chapters was Jumped together. whether it be for hou'lie furnishings , building assistance. rushing or any other kind of gift, it would be an impressive s um.

The Ruth Barrelt Smith Scholarship comes under the he.ldlOg of the Alumnr intuest in active chapters. It is a matter of great satisfaction to note that last year ' s winner, Harriet Bell, Missouri Alpha, was .ble to return to schoo l and to serve her cha pcer onJy because of this assistance. and this year she is the winner of the Epsilon Province Amy Burn· ham OnkC'f1 Award Interest in this kind of assistance

to chapters is reflected in the ran that ten dubs contributed a total of $89.00 to the Harriet RutM.rford Johnstone Scholarship Fund. We are saddened by the loss of MISS Johnstone so very rfCt:ntly but are sure s he would Ix greatly pleased (ould SM know of this sp«ial interest on the part of some of the clubs.

The co ntact with Save the Children Ft'dcration , begun in 1946, continues. This year the fraternity has been honored in haying Harriet Rauch, Iowa Ikta. of the New York City Alumna! Club, aDd retiring member of the Settlement School Commiuet' serve on the SCR Board. Forty-six clubs gave funds for these spo nsorships. Berkeley, CaUL, gave tnough for two sponso rsh ips, and Dallas, Tex. , morc than (or one full sponsorship and Palo Alt o, Calif. , had its own ch ild , while other sponsorships were sha red by several clubs.

Hel e na Rubinstein beauty products were so ld for the second year by a number of the alumme cl ubs as a means of adding funds to the budget

The report of the special cornmittet appointrd last summer to consider the possibility of coordinating and giving nation.aI recognition and significance to the outstanding service now being given locally by a large number of clubs will be heard later in the session. The thanks of the ,Iumnr department goes to Betty Stovall King, ch2irJ1l2.n, and to Rhoda Jooes Osthaus and Marj orie Harbaugh Colvin, members of the committet, for their service to the Fraternity. For the first time alum. nr club letters appeared in only the May issue of the ARROW One hundred and eighty.three alumnr clubs submitted letters, or 72V2% of the clubs It is hoped that with the appcaflllnce of only the one letter more clubs will be represented next year in thi s section of our magazine. These letters are recommended read ing as a source for new ideas , and for a better knowledge and understanding of the activities of the member groups of our Alumnr Department.

It has been Our great privilege to enjoy the has· pitality of several alumnr clubs and chapters during the year Your Grand Vice President visited for the fraternity, West Virginia Beta, Ontario Alpha and Beta, TOlnessee Alph2 , Beta, and Gamma, Kentucky AlphOl , and Missouri Alpha and Beta. Informal and socii-I occasions were spent with D .C. Alpha, Maryland Beta , and Illinois Eta Alumnr dubs visited were Elkins, W Va Toronto, Ontario, Knoxville-Little Pigeon, Chattanooga, and Nashville, TennesSC"e, louisville:. Kentucky Columbia and St. Louis. Missouri, sod Indianapolis, Indiana. SpeciaJ occasions were the Founders Day with Wilmington, Delaware, Balumore. Maryland Arlington·Aleundria, Va ., and our Own Washington a.rea luncheon sponsored by the Washington Junior Alumnr Club. Upon invitation of the administration a visit was paid to the Penn State College CiolmpUl at State CoJlegc, Pennsylvania . Thr eevery special privileges stand out in ow mind-that of attending the National Panhellenic Conference held at Williamsburg, Va ., conducting the initiation ceremon) during our visit to Kcntucky Alpha, and of received by Mrs Truman at Blair House, temporary White H ouse:, to present the Settlement School stole, the gift of Pi Beta Phi, to Her Majesty Quetn Eliu.beth. n, then Princess Elizabeth.

We hope these visits were of some benefit to those visited for certainly this officer fouod in them much t o cherish in bappy memories, and added reason for the always growing honor and we hold for the great fraternity Pi Beta Phi wbich it has bem our high privi lege to serve

Emilie M argaret

White wrote in her report DOC' year as Grand Vice President "Fra tanity work is an

IOvestment from which the interest is cumulative. and co nsta ntly coming in." M ay each of yOu make added i nvestments in fraternity work. and find your interest rate soaring to unprccedentc..-d heights which con· bring great returns in happiness and in the satIS faction of a job well done.

We come now to another turning in the road

Wahead. W e feel confident that our Pi Phi leaders-our torchbearers-will hold the torch SO that they may be very sure they in thc right d ir ec ti on, for "Tis the torch the people follow, whoever the bearer may be."

GRAND SECRETAR Y

ITH seed tim e and harvest the Pi Beta Phi yean have circled round, all eighty-live of them, bringing us to another and t o the accumulated harvest. We cove t for every Pi Phi the compulsion which means that we study nin ety·seven reports of the dele· gates to co nventi o n, reports of all fraternity ofEicen and national chai rmen , and questionnaires from the Alumnr Advi SOry Commiuees. In no other way can the accumulated accomplishments of the years be so clear and so thrilling The September ARROW will speak to you of these thing s and reward those who to know the length and th e brea dth of the Fra· ternity Our Founders were vnazed, and glad, because of the Fraternity a number of them lived to see. We be l ieve that its enduring exce ll ence li es in the devotion of th e individual member, multiplied in its ever widening circles.

This year, as we write this report, we feel d«p heartache because of the loss of our friend and coworker, Harr iet Johnstone A s the National Chairman o f Scholarship she was one of the six national chair· men to work with the Grand Secretary and her in· spiri ng vision of good scholarship and constant devotioo tn the task of opening wide every possible avenue to chapter incentive is written into the acc:umulateJ han'cst of our (haptt:rs' sc holarship records to an ex' tent no one can measure. H er regular letters, with their anxiou s concern over lowest chapters, missing letters and reports, and the never quite rt:iIlched goal, ca me to us all from her bedside, month after month, It seems as if she must have slipped away from us almost as she computed the la st chapter grade for this year's reco rd , W e are glad that the girls who win the fraternity's gift scho larships will hear her name, with an awareness of her service, for many years to come. The Gr and Sec retary has enjoyed working with Doro thy Mclaugh lin . Virginia McMahan , Betty Blalock , Leila Clifton and Kath eri ne H osme r , National Chairmen who se coope ration a nd fraternity service are also a defiOite part of another year's accomplishment.

Form letters and the mid· winter questionnaires brought respon se from many Advisory Committees and the vision of so many Pi Beta Phis working hard and loyally with our chapters is always an inspiring o n e The greatest satisfaction in this year's record is the bal.ance between active apprecia tion of Adv isory Committees and alumna: approval of chap ter cooperation. G ene rally spea king there is a fine relationship, mutually happy and s uccessf ul.

The load of chap ter supervision co rrespondence was not as heavy as usual this year. California Zeta

Tcompl eted her two-year period following installation. in February, and West Virginia Beta has just ended her seco nd year as a pj Beta Phi chap t er This means that we have had no new chapters since September 19 )0.

In January a letter went out to all chapters explaining the app li cation procedures and outlinins: qualifications necessary for the differen t scholarships available within the fraternity. The Harriet Rutherford Johnstone applications have doubled this year bUI the co ntributi o ns have n o t gained in similar propor· tion. Last year we received six t een applications and hoped, up to the last minute, to be able to award assistance to nine actives but the final total was in· s ufficient and only eight could be aided. This year we have received thirty· four applications, The obviou'i need and the th o rough ly fine records of th ese girl, make the ,'tift scholarships so much the type of whi ch Pi Phis have always wanted to do that we believe that this fund will grow as the Fraternity be · co mes aware of the opportunity for service. Such bread, cast upon Pi Phi waters, will be found afu.' r many days and will be as ce rtain and happy a disco, ery as Solomon predicted.

The Grand Secretary enjoyed the privilege of an assignment to chapter vi siting in Zeta Province thi s year and , in additio n , to Ohio Epsilon , Ohio Beta and Ohio Delta--<hapters she had kn ow n well in her years as Beta Province President and enjoyed visiting agai n It was a special privilege to be the guest of the Washington D .C. Alumna: Club with the other members of the Grand Council at the time of the National Panhelleni c Conference. The Atlanta Pi Phis were thoughtful in filling.in travel inter· ludes with welcome and fellowship never to be for· gotten. The warm welcome of the South Hill s Pittsburgh Alumna.> Club in March, of the Columbus Club at dessert ID the Ohio Beta house, and of th e Akron Club at their Founders' Day lun cheon will rema in a happy memory. To the many individual Pi Phis and the Alumnz Advisory Committees alqng the way who made our work easier and very pln-sant we offer o ur si ncere thanks.

May the thing s we have done together be as wonderful for the security and happiness of our chapters as the whole effort has mn-nt compensating satisfaction and precious associations for each one of us, T o be able to WOrk earnestly for the abiding success of a fraternity such as ours is a very specia l privilege.

LUCILE DOUGLASS CARSON

ARROW EDITOR

HIs year for the ARROW has again been governed by the continuing need for strict economy. Issues have bee n kept down in size, September to 112 pages (thiS ISSue used to run about 140 pages); D ecember to 80 pages; and May to 96 pages, the latter increased

figure was due to the publication for the first time of the o n ce·a-year alumna.> letters at the same time with the newly abbreviated chapter letters. Much valU2ble material has been crowded out of each issue. Always hopefully we plan to use It "next time," but instead

time catches up with it, the material becomes obsolete, and IS never published,

Last year, we discussed doing away mtirely witb alumn:e personals, which had already been cut down to include only births and marriages; but this plan was deferred since no warning had been given, and many notices had come in after the deadline for May, 19)1: On consu ltation with Central Office, whicb called to .Jur attention the fact that these are a valuable link with many of our young members who have time for very liule fraternity con tact in the years immediately following college, it was decided to use them for the past year, However, for the coming year we recommend that they be usN. but not to the exclusion of o ther personality material.

In str uctions are often disregarded or never readthis was exemp lified the past Spring when the chapter letter editor sent out careful instructions to all chap ters in regard to the abbreviated chap ter reports desired for May- in spite of this, many chapters sent in the usual long letters-this necessitated many lett ers and telegrams aslcing for correction of the error. In many cases the corrected letter was never and the original one had to be re-written and c ut down. This should not happen another year, and we recommend that 1M shortened form be continued.

There has been no additional increase in costs of printing, for this year, and the total cost is $1000 less, although the number of s ubscribers increased by some 1SOO new initiates Through the addition of new facilities at the publishers, there has been a sma.ll dec rease in handling cost. The future of paper prices is as always of late uncertain and at this point it is impossi ble to predict what the situation may be for next year. There has Men a slight decrease in the price of pulp to the paper mills, but this has not as yet reflected in the cost of the finished paper a nd may not appear at all, largely because of labor cos U.

The format of the magazine has been kept uncha nged, since much CAre and thought had gone into its chOice, and since aperience has shown that the prese nt type and page size gives the greatest number o f words per page. combined with attractive and readable qualities. One or two requests have come in for :a maguine printed entirely in 10 point typeo-somethi ng that would be much more expensive.

A cha n,lte has been made in the matter of distribution. Manila covers have been discontinued, and the address labels are pasted directly on the back cover. Results seem to have been good, with only one complai nt comi ng in of a magazine being received in poor condition-of course tOOe may have bten others. The magazines are mailed out in groups sorted by localities, with cardboard at the top and bottom of each grour, hence are better protected than before A number 0 other magazines are using the same system.

This year the new saddle wire binding has saved a little money, and is easier to handle--it allows the magazi ne to be opened out Bat, and cuts placed in the inside colum n look much better

Severa.! letters of suggestion have come in asking for more pictures, but under present expense planning that ha.s been impossible. The editor would like more lhan anything else to have a Spring issue made up entirely of material helpful in rushing, with many pictures-perhaps one day it may be possible, and mea ntime we can dream about it, and about the sum-

mer issue we have long desired. with a picture of every chapte r house!

As It is. pictures have been cut to a mtn.mum , much to our regret , and we have missed Mr. Busey's generosity, which helped make the issues both before and aCler the last Convention SO attractive.

The Editor had the privilege of attending the ing of the Editors' Conference at the time of NPC. and found it unusually stimulating. Among the new editors added by the expansion of NPC were a number who were brand ne w at their work, and asked interesting questions, and many new ideas were presented All magnines arc struggling with the problem of costs, except those whose cost seems to be regarded as the most important item in the fraternity budget, to be paid for before any other work is undertakenZeta T.l.u Alpha is a notable example of this. There was much discussion of using a greater number of serious articles On suc h subjects as patriotism and the participation of fraternities in movements of national importance. and a general desire for exchange of such articles. The spirit of cooperation show n was a fine deve lopment. and several good articles have come in from other magazines, for future use.

On lhe way to NPC at Williamsburg, the Editor made chapter visits, going to all the Illinois chapters and the tWO in Pennsylvania-all chapters of whi ch we may be proud. She met the Galesburg alumnr club at a breakfast, Decatur at an evening meeting in the lovely new house, the Chicago North Club at an interesting evening meeting, the alumrue in Lewisburg (Ccotnl Pennsylvania), at a supper and a reception, and Washington, D _C at a luncheon given for Grand Council on their way to Williamsburg. After Christmas the Editor was the guest of th e Los Ang e les Club at a breakfast meeting, and again met with them at the Ar ea Council Founders ' Day when Mrs Simmons was the guest of honor. Mrs. Simmons was also the guest of San Diego for Founders' Day, and besides had an evening with California Epsilon during her visit.

The Editor's two years of supervision of California Epsilon ended at the close of rushing in the Fall , but her work has conti nued all the year as an extra member of the advisory board and as a member of the House Corpontion of the chapter. All this has been a source of much pleasure, especially because of the fine record of the girls which will appear in the repon of the province president . SuperVision of the Historian and the Director of Public Relations has meant little work for this y£<u since both arc such experienced officers. Opportunity for a fine conference with the Historian came during her San Diego visit, and only one problem troubl ed us-the chapter histories are becoming entirely tOO many to handle. Consideration should be given to recommendations in Mrs. Simmons' report On this subject.

Planning has been completed for the Convention Daily, and the staff promises to be one of the most tofficient we have ever had

Mu ch gratitude is due to all who have sent in valuable material , especially to the Grand President who always S«mJ to know everythins about everybody. Again thanks go to Harold Bachmann at the Banta Publishing who does suc h splendid w n rk for the ARROW

It ha.s Ixeo as always a privilege to serve the Fraternity.

DIRECTOR OF RUSHING AND PLEDGE TRAINING

PUPAUTlON for the year's work actuall., lut June in Gatl inburg with the meeting of Grand Council and the workshops for the province officers. These muting, covered a review of the w ork of the previous year, and provided for a discussio n of plans (or progress during the year ahead.

A revi ew of work done durins the year 19H ·n. will show that on the whole, the chapter officers have show n some improvement in their cooperation and (o ntaro with the Director of Rushing and Traini ng . However, there still is room for even greater improvemt"nt, and we will continue to hope for 100% A study of the grades in a> ope ration given by this officer for the Sta ndardization and SU("\lq' Report, will show that ooly 16 of the 97 chap ters received a perfect grade this yeu.

During the s ummer, a letter was sent to all rus h capwo.s; also some additions to the rush manual which had betn compiled by this officer. Letters were scot out again in October and May Individual CO rrespo n dence was carried o n with many of the rush ca ptains, concerning mistakts which had occurred on their rush reports. The c hecking of the rush reports from 97 chap ters, in order to be Sure that all fraternity requirements had been met, consumed time and required much patience. Experience has show n that this duty is of great importance, and should, by all means, be continued.

Letters were sent to the pledge superviSOr! in November, and again in February The response to a request for a letter from each pledge supervisor by November 10, was very poor, for only 42 gi.rls sent letters by the due date Fourteen letters arrived late, which leaves 41 chapters not reporting. A few pledge supn-visor! were most cooperative, and used their own initiative in carryi ng on cor re spo ndence which was not required The work of the pledge supervisors in prepanog pledges for initiation, cannot be measured by statistics, but will be show n in future progress of our chapters. as the new members assume their plact$. of leadership . The number of initiates for the year 19:51-)2 is 2,028 as compared with 1.992 in 19 }O-}t.

The pledge lists sen t to this officer and to Central Office, serve as a check on the reports of the rush captains. This year we increased the number of girls pledged from 2,162 in 19}O-H, to 2,176 in 19:51-}2

Of this total number, there were -43 girls who were re-pledged, and 88 girls who we.re pledged o n the basis of information furnished by the State Rushing Chairmen. The latter figure is a slight increase over last year ' s figure of 84

The work of the State Chairmen conti nu es to be most outstanding in giving he.lp to chapde.siring information 00 rushees co ming (rom towns where there are DO alumnr cluhs. They spend much time in making contacts by letter and by telephone, and often find it very difficult to secure the required data. The fratem.ity appreciates their nne service

In May of this year, a letter was sent to all convention delegates, giving instructions and information concerning duties and responsibilities of those who will represent their chapters at the 19}2 conventio n

The questionnaires sent to the chapter presidents were. due in this office by November 1'. Records show that 80 were returned o n time; , came in late, while 12 chapters failed to report

The health affidavits required from chapters having mtployees who handle food . were due October 30. Seventy-one chapters reportt'd on time. 10 were late, but 16 ignored the request.

It was a pleasure to be able to attend the Delta Province Chapter Pceside nt s' Wockshop held in Fort Wayne, Indwla in August. These mertings are of great value to the officers who attend, as well IS to the chapter representatives, aDd we apprecia ted the opportunity to participate in the Delta Province workshop.

In No\"ember. the members of Grand Council attended the b ien nial meetinA of the National PanhelImic Conference in Williamsburg, Virginia . This was an lOteresting and valua ble experience, n ot only in learning more about NPC. but also in having the opportunity to meet national office.rs of other fraternities. Our pride in Pi Phi's place in the fraternity world was deepened as we listened to the reports and discussions. and talked with other frat ernity leaders

In February and March we had the pnvilege of visiting the nine chapters in Lambda Provin ce, and meeting with a lumnr clubs in Corvallis, Eugene. Ta · coma, Everett and Edmonton, The gracious hospitality o( the Pi Phis in the province, the breath ·taking see nert, and the experience of a first trip to the Northwest, all combined to make the trip a memorable one. This office r is especially grateful to Mary Cooper and Mary Mooney Lambda Province office rs. and to Louise Dobler, former Lambda Province Vi ce President, for their thoughtfulness in helping: to make the trip so ple.asa.nt It was a pleasure, too , to have a brief visit with Emily Draper, former Lambda Province President while in SHute

The annual meeting of the Indiana State Panhellenic Association was held at Ball State Coll ege in May and we were fortunate in being able to attend that meeting.

FOUDde.cs' Day was ceJcbrated as usual , with the annual Indiana 'State Luncheon held in Indianapoli s in April. It .Iways is a thtiJl to see the many Pi Phis who come together for this reunion each year.

We reret that it was impossible to accept the invitation 0 the Franklin College Panhellenic to be the spea1cer at the annual scholarship dinner whi ch was held in March

For the opportunity to serve as an office r of Pi Beta Pbt, we are deeply grateful. Our sincere thanks go to the other members of Grand Council , who have given heJp and advice throughout the year

DIR ECf OR OF EXTE NSION

THIS year has brought many n ew and interesting experien ces to the Director of Extension , who was appoi nt ed to the office to fi ni sh the unexpired term o f M arie Bacon

The year began with the Grand Council in Gatlinburg , Tenn. al the end of June 1951 , at which time she assisted the Grand Vi ce· President with the Workshop for Province Vice-Presidents At this ing she gained a deeper insight into Ihe workings of the fraternity realized the broad scope of the work ca med on by Ihe members of the Counci l , and appreciated as never before what their wise guidance an d devotio n have do n e for Pi Beta Phi.

At the end of August she attended with H elen Russell, Epsilon Province President, th e Epsilon Chap· tcr Presidents' W orkshop. This was a fine meeting in spite of the terrific heat in Nashville at that time Chap te r visiting was a wonderful new experie nce to this officer. It was a privilege to meet and know the eight chapters in D e lta Province and four of those in I ota, Utah Alpha , Wyoming Alp ha, and Colorado Alpha and Beta, a nd to enjoy th eir gracious hospital · ity. While in Delta Province. she was entertained at luncheo n by the ExtCutive Board of the In dianapolis Alumnr club In Denver she had the pleasu.re of meeting many of the Denver alumnr at a Su n day morni n g given at the home of Lolita Prouty, by Lolita Prouty and M arie Di visek. In Laramie, she met Pi Beta Phi alumnr and members of the Wy om ing University faculty at an ev ening reception given by t he chap te r . In addition it was interes ting a nd e nl ighte ning to attend, with the other m embers of Grand Co uncil , th e NPC meeting at Wi ll iam s burg, Virginia , November 27·December I. Th e Wash ington , D .C. Alumnr Club entertained at luncheo n th e Council me mbers , who were in Wa s h ingt on trains o n the w ay to \\(/ illiamsburg .

A high spot, in a year of high spots. was the joy of being the guest of the K ansas City Pi Phis, and sha rin g their celebration of Founders' D ay. She returned from Kansas City in time to attend the St, louis Club ce lebratio n , at which timc the Grand Presi dent, Mi ss Amy Burnham Onken , was the guest of honor and principal speaker.

Through the year the Director of Extension has writte n letters a t the request of the Province Vi ce· Presidents to Pi Phis who might be inlerested in forming new clubs, has added her w elcome to new clubs as they organized, and has wrilten "fi rst anni· versary' lett ers to all clubs formed durin,," the 19)0· 19H club year. She has written a letter to the presi· dents of the M othe rs' Clubs, and ha s helped with the o rganizati o n of several new ones.

Four planned programs were sent to the Chapter Program Chairmen to be used at the monthly Pi Phi

DNight programs--one on Rushing. one on NPC. onc on the ARROW in the (orm of a "Break the Bank " quiz and one on Convention.

In the actual field of Extension , the drop in en tollment over the Country. due to the un sen led ca n · ditions of our present day world has had a definite effect. On several campuses in which Pi Phis have ev idenced great interest, the authorities have been unwilling to admit a new chapler, fearin,Q; that its coming might M the cause of the withdrawal of some group dlfeady having a difficult time making its quota This is the situatio n at th e universities of Kentu ck y, Tulsa. and Florida.

However we have befn co nt acted by local g roups Or have looked int o the possibilities of chapters on the (o ll owing campuses: Oklahoma City University. Texas Technological College, North Texas State Col· lege, Co l o rado College, Northern Illin ois Sta le Col · lege, McGill University, V a lparai so University, Ev. ansville College , Indiana State Tea chers ' College, Fresno State College, Roanoke College, University of New Hampshi re, Southeast Mi ssou r i State College, and Penn State College.

In 1947 when th e National Education fraternities were made associate m embers of NPC with the view to made regular members in 19)1 a new field (or eXlension was opened to NPC member fraternj. ties. Since that time consideration has been give n to placing chaplers on some of the campuses of tea chers ' co ll eges. In February of 19) I Hel en Lewis, D i rector of Ru shing and Pledge Training, visited a group, the Gamma Gammas, at Ball State Teachers ' College at Mun c ie, Indiana H er report being favorable, i t was decided at the Grand Cou n cil in Jun e 19) 1, th at the group be visited by Madelin e Killinger , D elta Provin ce Pr eside nt , and a repr esentative o f each chap t er in Delta Province. Fo llowin,l; th e enthu siast ic reports of these visitors, it was unanimously vo ted by Grand Council to allow the Gamma Gamma group to petilion Convention Acco rdingly a formal petition has been sent to a ll the vo t ing body of the active sess ion of Conve nti o n to be acted on this J u ly.

The honor of being appointed to this office and the great JOy of serving our fraternity have gone hand in hand this year with long hours of harder work than this o fficer has ever experienced before in her life She IS extremely grateful to the o th er members of Grand Council for their patience and assistance in the new problems that confronted her. and to M arie her predecessor. for excellent instruction in her new duties. From a personal standpoint this has been a year of complete gain, of new friendships, enlarged contacts, and a n ew, richer into a wo nderfu l fratmtity-Pi Beta Phi.

COUNSELOR FOR CHAPTER HOUS E CORPORATIONS

URING the past year information for a sho rt hist ory of chapte r housing has betn compi led. It has been most gratifying to gather and study facts co n ce rnin g the steady increase in the nu mber and the va lue of our chapter houses At the prese nt time there are 66 Pi Beta Phi chapter house corporations. Of these )8 own chapter houses valued al $4,600,000, with a total indebtedness of $I,O}O,ooO. The others have been formed with the purpose of building up funds for eventual ow n ership. In addition four houses

for meetings o nly and furn i shi ng s for rented houses, lounges in dormitories, apartments and other meeting places are ow ned by chapters o r a lumn r groups The value of this property ould add to the total of chapter housing investments.

The letters received from house co rporation trea s· urers and presidents giving histories and descriptions of the houses have shown the pride and joy derived from the accomplIShments which entailed so much e#Jort. The annual financial reports have shown con-

tinued deanses in indmtedness. Expenditures for nelessary upkeep and for decorating and furnishing and equipment show that the houses ate in good reo pair and are convenient and attractive. With rising costs, corpo ration treaswers have been urged to see that income is sufficient for all expenditures. The landlord-tenant plan has been advised and is in use in most placC!S, as it is deemed the most businesslike arrangement between hoUS4! co rporation and chapter House corporations have been urged to see that the active chapters understand the affairs of the corporation. In many corpotlltions, actives as well as alumnlr are members and attend annual meetings; directors are alumnr with actives as members of the board. The active members of a chapter shou ld have a voice in deciding what is to be do ne with the money tM chapter mm1i>e:rs pay in rent and house pledges to the corporation although the alumnz: memo bers should han the balance of power on any board or committee. This plan has proved most successful, and the cooperation actives and a lumnz has worked to the advantage and the satisfaction of both.

During the past year, the large additions to the New Mexi co Alpha and the Florida Beta houses have been completed. In both cases sleeping and study rooms, as well as di n ing rooms and kitchens, have been added making both houses really chapter homes. At the present time, the Illinois Theta House is being co mpletely remodeled. A corporation is being formed for the pwpose of buying a house to be used as a Lodge by Nova Scotia Alpha when a suitable piece of

property can be found and financed.

After 20 years of working and hoping, the dream of Tex.iS Beta alumnz and actives has come true The beautiful and well -p lanned chapter house in the new Sorority Group on the SMU campus has bef:n in use during the past year. This Fraternity Housing development shows what panhellen.ic cooperation can do for the chapters and for the university.

All of the routine duties of House Corporation Counselor have been done. A fall letter was sent to all corpora tion treasurers aod again in Januuy a letter with report blank.s enclosed went out. All information has been filed, bond fee receipts returned to treas urer s alo ng with individual letters concerning reports. Much co rrespond ence co ncerni ng financing and building has been carried on with variou.s corpo ration treasurers and contact has been kept with the Grand Treasurer and the Grand President, both of whom have been most helpful.

It has been a rewardin g experieoce: to serve the Fraternity, a nd letters of appreciation from many corporation treasurers make my work with them seem worthwhile. If my con tribution to the work of Pi Beta Phi chapter housing has added to the sum total,1 shall fee l rewarded , for over the years Pi Beta Phi has done a great work in the housing of college students. For many years, fraternity houses were the only mean s of group living available to stlldents in many colleges, and, even with the many residence halls now on cam· puses, they still afford the best opportunity for periCDce in training for democratic living.

NATIONAL HISTORIAN

The winner of the Nita Hill Stark Vase: for the best active cha pter history prepared during the year 19'1 to 19n, was Michigan Gamma. Mi chigan Gamma's historians were: Kristine Olsen and ]ant'eO And erson.

The winner of 1M Historian's Cup for the second best history was Colorado Alpha . The historians were Ruth Morris, Barbara Quam, and Barbara. Halsted:

The very excellent histories prepared by the following chapters received honorable mention: Illinois Theta (Martha Thomas and Joan Jespa, historians); North Carolina Beta (Patti Cohan and Peggy Yancey, historians); Oregon Gamma (Jans Notson and Sally Bridgeman, historians); lndian a Delta (Nan cy Hill and Barbara Sadler, historians)

THE complete display of active chapter hi stori es. from each of the 97 chapteu of the Fraternjty, represents an innovation at the 1952 convention. ThiS in novation came about as the result of a motion presented .wd passed by active chapter delegates to the convention. The motion called for the abolition of chapter exhibits and tM substitution of chapter histories in their place. As a consequence new methods of procedure have behl introduced Each delegate is now responsible for bringing her chapter's history to convention, and for the history to the chapter after convention . Because of the necessity for reading and grading all histories during cooventioo week, the presence of the Assistant National Historian is now required at convention. The

new plan will result in considerable savi ng in postage, and 10 the time required (or wrapping and mailing of typed material. It is hoped that the method of pro · cedure o utlined above will prove workable, and that the historil!S will be of interest to all those in attend · ance at co nvention

Instructions to chapter historians have shorter, more condensed histories, with the elimina· tion of unimportant material. There have fewer delinquencies. Some chapter historians have missing histories from earlier yea rs.

Acquisitions to the a«hives for the year 19H to 19:52 are as follows:

Because of absence from the city, Hi storia n was co mpelled to d ecline an invitation to speak at the annual Panhellenic Day observances at William Jewell Co ll ege. It IS a lways a pleasure to visit on that has· pitable ca mpus, and to assist. whenever possible, th e groups "hi ch arc .so eager to cooperate in the best ltaditionJ of the fntemity world

In April the Historian was privileged to visit in the houses o f California I', Califomia 4 California E, and California Z. She came aWay. nOting with pride, the character of the membership and the quality of the achievements of these new and o ld chapters.

The beautiful luncheon and the two lovely dinners, the old friendships rmewed, and 1M new friendship.s made, will be long-c herished memories The kindness and bountiful hospita.lity of the Pi Phis o f the Southern California Area Council would be difficult to equal anywhere

It hilS been an education and an inspiration to in· terview and to receive writtm reminiscences from these four honored members of the (rateroilY : Dr Bessie Pt'try and Miss June Peery of San Diego, Min Julia Ellen Rogers of Long Beach. and Dr Ann a Ross Lapham of Chicago

Without the efficient. intelligent and ever-willing ass istance of Elizabeth Heryer Delaney , who has assumed co mplete supervision of active chapter histories, it would bt- impossible to perform the duties of this office. The Historian wishes to thank the Director of Central Office and the many other individual members of the fraternity interest has se.rved to enrich the archives collection , She is cspecially grateful to all the members of Gf.1.nd Counit without exception , for their continued confidence and helpfulness . It has bem a n honor and a pleasure to serve Pi Beta Phi throughout the past year , Respectfully s ubmitt ed, MARIAN KECK SIMMONS

Within fiv e years after its founding. the United Nations- the announced pur· pose of wh ich was that of being a limited authority to prevent war-is attempting to contro l the minds of men through the International Covenant on Human R ights. No greater danger to the freedom of man has arisen since t h e days of the claim of the divine ri g ht of kings This danger is a greater t h reat to the citize ns of the United States of Am erica than th e danger from any foreign military foe , for it might be that this contro l, together with the abrogation of the Bill of Rights, would be thrust upon the Ameri can people, accomplishing by treaty that which the Constitution would prohibit being accompli shed by legislation Onl y a new birt h of the understanding of th e true nature of our freedom ca n save us .

Settlement School Reports

CHAIRMAN OF THE SETTLEMENT SCHOOL COMMITTE E

D BETA PHI is celebrating the fortieth anniver sa ry 1.- of the establishment o f Settlement School thi s yea r. That is sufficient yn.rs t o prove worth of an undertaking and it has stood th e test Th e fo und atio n of t:Very state is said to be th e of its yo uth state of Tennessee, however, was s lo w to sta rt a nd i n 1912 could do litt l e if anything when we start ed o ur project there. It still does not equal in scope that Jo n e by the majority of other states. However, it is now givlOg increa.!ed aid to all schoo ls and th e diversio n of the sales lu: money int o school building funds has made po.ssible in housing. Y et it is .significant th.lt the County Superintendent of Schools feels a continued need for the auistance of Pi Scta Phi in meeting the requiremenu for a Class A sc. hoo l in Gatlinburg

In contrast to beginning days-poor roads sma ll inadequate ca bins, lac k of h)'giene, inadequate water sawces, we find today th at better highway.s , tourist travel to national park , influen ce of the radio, arriva l of a mo ney ·making people, all moder n izi ng what once was the of o f the first Gaelic prople wh o in th e Smokies

In spite of the influx o f new social forces o ne s lill may ta lk to t he straightforward, unas s umi ng mountainee r and hear Elizabdhan exp ressions found noe lse At our school gath er the grandchildren of th ese fine people and chi ldren of who do not always under stand the old tr adi ti ons

Forty years ago, education in Gatl i nburg con.sis ted of two Or three mo nths of simp le schoo ling; Pi Beta Phi changtd this t o a six and a month term but with one teach e r ca r ryi ng th e burden of teaching a ll ages. To quote Shakespeare: "To climb steep hi ll s requires s low at first." So step by step through the attendan ce grew, other w e re added until finally th e s)' stem included all e lmlentary grades and a full high schoo l co urse . Then g radual re linquishing o f o ur respons ibiliti es, a ll ow ing the county to take more and of the administration and th e cos t of th e sc hool. The leasi ng of o ur schoo l buildings for a t oken fee, th e erec ti o n of the new grade schoo l unit by the County two yean ago, the cost of mainta..ining the schoo l and paying a ll teacheu' sa la ries but four, all these signs of cha nge .

Today, in the Pi Beta Phi Schoo l, the i nter ests a re to three su bj ecu- Phy sica l Educa ti o n, Mu sic a nd Arts and Crafts. including Woodworking-and th ese salaries paid by Pi Beta Phi.

The ove r-all program in Physical Education , embracing many [arms of sport seenu closely linked with ou r H ea lth program and therefore of spa:ia l im portMr H a rtfo rd Granitz , graduate of the University of Chatta n ooga, has given all students well rounded co urses in sports, particularly emphasizing intta-murals fo r the sa k e o f sportsmansh ip. Our teams received awards this year for good sportsmanshir. in addition to winning games. Whil e bas ketball is the main competitive sport, Mr Granitz has also w:isted in football coac hing We regret thai will oot retwn fo r a third year with us but h e has gone to a much higher salaried position in Georgia .

Mr Carl Huskty has agai n given part time to instruc tin g in Woodworkin.'; and his boy.s turned o ut some comme ndabl e products during the: yea r. Teachin,R an d working both have bee n simplified by

new lathe and motor pu.rchaRd last summa.

The Arts and Crafts D epa rtment has been in the haods of (hru teachers during the past year.

Snow, go the many beautiful crafts designed by Tina M cMorran , our Weaving Designer, to please the Pi Phis When the advance in cost of linens, thrcgds or other supplies necessitates a raise in price to absorb production costs, there must be a slight change in form or pattern of the article in order to meet O . P.A. requirements. This often means time must be taken to design other than entirely new patterns With temperatures in the hi,gh nineties it sounds incongruous to talk of new patterned wool dirndls with matching stoles but soon we shall be wanting them again; there is a new knitting bag, and a new luncheon set will soon be in production. The popular woolen tics arc no more, since men have taken to the bows and the cost of producing such tics as OutS is prohibitive at the old price.

Tina has designed and woven a second large dossal this year as her gift to her own little Episcopal church in Gatlinburg. It is in the old, lovely ecclesiastical red the color having selected by the rector. At present she is GO leave to attend a special short course in weaving under leadership of the famed Dorothy Lcibes. This should mean new designs in new and gorgeous colors for next year's sales.

You will recall that it has been ftlt for several ,cars that the bottleneck in further expansion of the Summer with the University of Tennessee lay in lack of sufficient housinS and dining facilities. We have transformed the gradt school each summer into dormitory living but the majority of applicants asle: for sing le or double rooms. In an effort to rectify this si tuati on, to facilitate the of more people and to provide more comfortable quarters for our all-year staff. it was decided that a new building must be erected. With the line bequest from the Garshwiler Estate, money from California A and the amounts placed regularly in the inking Fund for JUSt such a need, it became possible two years ago to consult with an architect and in Much of this year to break ground for the building.

Now we have arrived at the place where the build ing must be furnished. In all the Southern Highlands area, Pi Beta Phi stands first in its leader hip in crafts development llnd for this re:uen we this building must be an example of what crafts schoo l hawing should or could be, and while eConomica lly and plactically done, it must also be well done.

REPORT OF DIREcrOR OF SETTLEMENT SCHOOL 1952

T IPI is oot a little bundle o[ big thinss. but a big L bundle of little things ." This statement [rom a newspaper column seems a fitting theme for my annu.1 report. While big things have been accomplished in the village Ind at the school, it is the little things that make up the big bundle o[ daily happenings at Settlement School. From humble beginnings of forty years ago, our project has grown and changrd with the years, the program adapting to the new phases of life in a rapidly growing community.

CommJlRII]

The yea. has marked .n extensive program among the different churches for improvement to their build · ings. Now we have several fine churches that are a credit to any town. The new Baptist Church o[ Crab Orchard slone in modern design has been completed. The beautiful pipe organ which is equipped ""'ith chimes, was the gift of M.rs Mary Huff in memory o[ her husband, Andy HuJI'. The Methodist congregation has built a beautiful new parsonage a.nd also pur· chased parking lot behind the church. The littl e Episcopal Church has had a number of gifts. A pipe organ [rom Mrs Ethel Voorheis Murry and a beauti· ful hand .woven dossal in ecclesiastical red from Tina McMorran were two of these. The Roaring Fork Bap. tist Church finished their basement and the little Primitive Baptist Church was repaired and painted. The:re has been great activity in the construction of new motels and tourist courts. Owners of existing courts have added new units and remodeled their old cabins until the town is very well supplied with fine accom· modations for the tourists. People here complain of a poor se.ason, but to the casual observer it does not seem that way Statistics at the Park show an increase in visitors over last year. Perhaps we are reaching a saturation point. New shops have been added to the many in town and outside on the highw.ys. Several of the new co urts a nd shops show the influence o[ an architect who has moved to the community. He is Mr. Hubert 8ebb, brother o[ Douglass Bebb of Bu ckhorn Jnn It is too bad that he did not come sooner, [or his work is a distinct addition to the town

One bundle that cou ld be called Big was made up of three factors These were, the flash flood o[ September first, the Governor's Conference o[ th e week of October first, and the Gatlinburg Craft Show held the same week. The flood made cleaning up [or the Conference much harder, and the Cn.ft Show was one of the factors in the entertainment of the visitors The sudden, destructive flood was caused by :t cloudburst in the mountain above the Alum Cave Trail. Ten inches of water fell in about an hour. Fortunately, no lives were lost, but the highway across the mountains was closed [or eight days before temporary repairs cou ld be made. Much damage was done to properties along th e river, especia ll y in the lower end of town. The water made the Greystone lawn into a I.ke, was over the railing o( the Greystone Bridge, a nd made the highway into Knoxville accessib le only to a jeep or a boat The w.aters backed up Baslcins Creek, but did not touch our proper ty When it receded , it le[t much debris and mu c k behind. Everyo ne worked. and by October first the town never looked. We had perfect weather all the week of the Confermce. The Governors' parties were housed in the [our hotels. the press had quarters i n ce rtain designated motels, and the highway patro lmen had other courts assigned. to tbern For that week Gatlinburg 'WIS the cen ter of

much activity. Ike.use everyone worked together, this small town was ab le to erJtertain Ou.r disti nguished guests. Banquets were held at difftttnt hoteb, but tM china and silver and even the waitresses of all the hotels appnred at the one where the function was held. To provide (or the of (he governon and others not too busy with conferences, the local shops put on a Craft exhibition. The Health was used for the exhibit of outstanding examples of weaving. wood work, and other cnhs Behind the building and o n the lawn wcrc umbrellas and tents housing weavers, basket makers, broom makers, woodworlcers. and others. No admission was charA;ed, and hostesses wcre on hand to tell the guests about the craft industry in this locality. One of the interesting things about this was that some local and rural people came and, for the first time, were made to realize whit was going on and how their own skill fitted into the whole picture.

The Chamber of Commerce made a great effort to extend the season at both ends. In the [all a group of Marble Dealers held a convention the week after the Governors had been here, and in the early we had meetings of the Wilson Club of America , a Di s· trict Rotary convention and the s«ond Wildflower Pil grimage. The bird lovers had co ntinuous rain but hunted new species with great ardor. The other groups had better luck . During the dull season the local people have made it a practice to stage different bene· fit parties. This year the Polio Benefit nettrd much more than it had before, but the one [or the village library brought considerably less The Episcopal Guild had a game party one night that helped them put the slate roof on their new churc h and provided a good time besides. In December, the Garden Club held an unusually good show of flower arrangements and o[ the winter greens that grow in such abundance in this arC3. This group and the Rotary Club placed. a number of concrete benches along the Parkway [or the benefit of the tourists. The usual union services were held by the town churches at Thanksgiving aDd Christma.s. On Easter, besides the sunrise service, there was an egg hunt for all the local child ren at the Whittle place. A new Park Superintendent was appointed. [or our Park He is Mr. John C. Preston [rom Mount Rainier National Park near Seattle. A survey and r"aluation of prope.rty in town [or taxation purpose:s and more talk of I villaJite scwer system show that there is civic interest in the community.

Scho ol

A revi", of the school ye.ar brinJitS to mind many little thinJits-the day·to-day routine o[ any school system which is hiJithlilithted by certain events of importance. Mr W.lter O,gle his second year IS principal, and we had Mrs Ann LiJithter [or assistant princip.1. She returned after a year's leave of absence to have charJite o[ the library and to teach junior Ind stnior EnJitlish We have always been proud of our library, which is called the Grace Coolidge library. We are especially proud of it since it has been so much improved by • number o[ cha nJitcs B, out a partition between the library and an adjoininJit class room, the room was enlarJited and s pace made [or (our new tables. The County paid [or the carpenter work the tables and the chairs . The tables are birch and were made in Mr Cole's wood ....orlr:iRJt shop 1ney are beautiful. Mrs Benjamin Weir, Illinois Z, who has nude several fine Jiti[ts to the library, had

an additional gift of $100 which we had been saving for something special. New shelving s«mro very necessary, and with this gift , $lO from Committee. and help from the County , we have entire new shelving in the room. We were very fortunate that Mr Lighter. who is the husband of the librarian, has a hobby of woodworking. He made these shelves in our Craft Shop . They are made to scale to fit into each available space and are very well made. The library has to serve as a classroom, but with the L-shape: can be used at the same tirot for study.

Interested Pi Phi alumnz clubs, active chapters and individuals have added many volumes to our book collection Mrs Lighter has a special M emo rial Shelf where books that been given in memory o( Pi Phis have an honored place. These books are often speci al volumes that are too expensive to be acquired in tM ordinary way . The Washi.ngton D . C. Aiumnr Club has a practice of a book to the School of giving Bowers at the death of a member Mrs. Lighter can secure such good discounts and often wants sont(!o 5p«ial book, so a gift of money ca n bt spent most advantageously. More books came to the School (rom Texas A and from the Lexington, Ken · tucky Alumnz Club. These were sorted and placed where they could best be U5Cd. Many juvenile books were put in the new elementary building to form a co llection for the usc of the teachers in the lower grades. Books pretty hard wear from the little (olk, and it is nne to have material to place on the tables in their rooms for them to read and C'"fIjoy. These gifts made it possible to discard some books that were really worn out.

Departmentalization in the seventh and eighth grades worked a little better than it did last year. Mr Tip Robenson had the eighth grade home room and coached the boys ' basketball team. Miss Haul Watson, daughter o( Richard, Our farm manager, had the se\'enth grade and coached the girls' team . Hazel graduated from Berea College and did a very good job in her first teaching assignment. Both of the junior basketball teams made excellent records The high school freshman English tea cher had these two litrades in that subject and their other studies were divided betWml the two home room teachers The work in business was taught by Mr Jack boWler In the second semester he added a course in Business Law to th e curriculum M.rs. Ruth Owenby and Mr Mark Grim have hem mMlbers of our faculty for several years. and both did their part in helping make the tea ching pro· gram a good one. The home tconomies department was in charge of Miss Joan McCready, an Iowa State College graduate . She was an outstanding tea cher and 1it8ve the girls some very pra cti ca l instruction in sew· ing and cooking. Miss Hodgen and I both felt that the dormitory girls learned more under her than they tud previously.

The arts and crafts program was carried on under gre.J.t difficulty. NOt in the woodworking department , for Mr. Carl Huskey had a good class of boys who did some very nice work in producing small articles of furniture. A late resignation by the art teacher made it difficult to find the proper person for our program, but Miss Dorothy Deiss came down from "' York. where she had just finished worle for her ma s ter's de· grtt in time to start the second week of school. She was a of outstanding ability and gave some fine service to the school, but she did not feel that she could carry on the work after the first semester. The high school classes had to have the credit, SO we were fortunate in securing Mrs . Charm Hadley, wife of Dr . Jervis Hadley, park geologist, to teach just two

classes. Mrs. Hadley hali an act degrce anJ had taught the subject, so we Wt1'C wc:1I pleased with that arrange· ment . In March. Ann Smith came (rom the Univ('r.iit)' of TennHSCt to take over the entire program, the very day she grAdualm. Ann had bttn a Workshop stude,"1 the summer before, came back to Worbhop dus sum· mer, and i5 to teach for us next year. She was a hapPl' solution to that difficulty.

Mrs. Armstrong again had the classes in music She had a good chorw of high school students, a girls ' club and gave two very fine programs. The :tonual was called ''The Frog Prince ." It was as cute as it could be. We were glad that the Com · mittee was in lown to see the younger children in their clever costumes and to hear their sweet young voices. The town is still tal Icing about the Christmas program, for it was one of the finest we have ever had at the school. Miss Deiss and her studenu helped with the stagiog. They made the "Talking Christmas Tree" and the papJer mache rrindecr, Santa and his sleigh The reindeer were urnost life-size. They won a blue ribbon for the Arts and Crafts department in the Garden Club show and were much admired in the lobby of the Mountain View Hotel during the holiday season Mr. Hartford Granitz taught the classes in co.achcd tht" girls' and boys' basketball teams in the high school, and helped with the footbaH program. No spectacullr results clme from either sport. but this was due to the material he had to work with rather than from hi s work.

The School hu long felt the of a band, and fOI the first time, a stut has been made toward that projtct The!" Rotary Club acted as sponsor, and a Knoxville firm provided the!" on a six weeks basis . At tht" end of that time, the rent paJd was applied on the price of the instrument. A good start was made, and they even had a to show progress. Now the school board is trying to find a band ditector who can also teach some academic subject, and thus be on the regular payroll.

" hIS fea.r , we 3ltain cooper.t.ted will. the Universit} of Tenncss« in having a group of student practice tea che rs work at the school for six weeks. The young people were mostly for elementary positions and worked with our grade school teachers to their mutus I advantage. In order to foster profes sional interest. an active in ·service training program was instituted for the faculty and five meetings were held. One of tllne was a county-wide meeting held .t our School. Mrs. Lighter was chosen to SC'"rve on an important comm ittee of educators who spent one week in intensive evaluation of Rule High School in Knox · ville. Their nndinJ!;s will be a help to the whole area

The Junior play was "Little Women" and was very well cast and produced The Seniors chose "Johnny on the Spot" for their play. It was fun to see a tall mountain lad play the part of the returned soldier who against his wiJI was posing as a great hero. Room parties for the school childrm at the Christmas and Val entine seasons, the high schoo l basketball, football , and Junior banquets were all Big things that brought gayety and happiness into th e regular school program. The Senior Class of twenty -two members made a trip to Washingtoo , O. c., with a stopover at Luray Caverns in Virginia They had been well-briefed before they left school in the historical and scenic wonders they were to see. Even the arrow on Mrs Coolidge's dress caught 1Mir notice when they visited the Smithsonian Institute and saw the wax figures of the Presidents' wives The Baccalaureate service was held in the new Baptist Church with a fine speaker and lovely musi c by girls ' litlee club O.ss night

and Commencement followed, both being held in our auditorium. A number of the class are planning on to collcA:c this fall. Most of thrm have positions in restauranu, shops, or botch this SU1IUIl«.

P.T.A.

There had been a growing smtimmt against raisIng money for P,T.A. projects by holding Bingo games both here in town a nd in the state organization. The new Baptist minister, }. B Carter, very much disapproved. and this year the games were given up . Revenue has come from three rummage sales that brought in about s:no.oo and from a Minstrel how that netted the same amount. This was given twO nights in the High School gym and was a gaJa affair. A surprising amount of local talent gave an outstand· ing performance. Marjorie Chalmers and Lillian Han<;en of our std were in the cast. The pharmacist at o ne of the drug stores directed the show TM P.T.A. again 1M school lunch program under the effi cient management of Mrs Grace Morell 1bey con· tributed th e proceeds of one rummage sale to the schoo l library and have :t surplus to spend for some worthy cause n(:Xt year. The monthly programs were interesting and in several instances b rough t many f.thers to the Sue Huff Cox served as Presi · dent, Lillian was Secretary, and Mrs. Henrietta Huff was Program chai rman for the rear. Two study med· jngs wer e held at Teachers' Cottage with the Director 5t"f'Ving as discussion At these everyone brought their own sandwiches, and Miss Hodgen provided cake and coffee for one time, and the ot her time Sue baked the we.

Dormilory

We had twelve dormitory students during the year. nine girls and three boys. Seven of these were freshmen and new to group living . It took a couple of months for them to l ose some of their shyness and to learn what was expected of them. Before the year ove r, they felt at home and contribu ted their part towlId running the place. The girls csoecially helped with work in the kitchen and dining room and did very well when we were without a cook, by preparing breakfast and helping at supper time. We have had a sc:rious time with help shortages. I do not know what we would have done without Mi ss Hodgen to take over when we had no cook. Ullian Hansen, my I5sist· ant, chaperoned the girls and them many things they sho uld always remembc!r. We entertained .t severa l nice dinners during the year. Committee members were with us one eVentng and we also had the annwtl dinner for the Commencement speaker, the County upenntc:ndent, and otbers. J entertained all of the teachers at tea, early in the fall, and when th e student teachers came, we had another get-together for them, the faculty and our staff.

We have a number of foreign visitors each )'eat who come to see our school as .n exampJe of a good Craft Center. Last fall a group of South American students were here. They talked to the students at a special assembly and had a public erhibi lioo of crafts they had brought from their own countries. Later that evening, we invited interested friends to met't the }troup .t Teachers' Cottage and se rved doughnuts and coffee. We have entertained guests from Egypt, China, England and Austria., some of them for overnight SlOps. They .Iw.ys bring much of inlrrest to us, and J know carry away lmowledge that wiJl help them in their different worle .

The JPrls of Lillian 's Scout trOOp held their annual i1ver Tea at Stuart, and abo hdd their Christmas party there. The Dormitory students had parties, and the whole family went on several picnics . One of these was a rather damp o n e when we all came bacle to StUlIt to eat our dessert and have a surprise shower for Lillian and her fiance. Harry W. Howell.

Of all the varied services contributed by the Fra· ternity to tM community, none is more important than thaI rendered by our nurse , Mrs . Marjorie Chalmers. She pr('Sides our modern little Health Center where severa l important local clinics are held each year. Two of these lIe the pre-school clinic for children entering school for the first tim e, and the visit of the state mobile X·ray unit for chest examinations. At the latter visit, over 1000 people were X -rayed in one day. This is a great number for this small town, but is to the number of peopJe who worlc in resort restauranls .nd hotels and must have a health c.rd Marjorie has taught cla sses in clIild care to the sophomore home eco nomics class and to Lillian 's Scout troop.

Outside our own chapters and alumna' clubs. who arc most Benerous with (!ifts. the gre.tesl source of income is from Sigma Phi Gamma, internation;:1 sorority. This sends the Council of Southern Mountain Workers a sum of moncy ea h year to be used for health wo rk in th, mountains. Last year this was $13'0. Our share of this amount was over $'0 Individual chapte rs of that organization adopt our prolect as the special center to receive their welfare gifts. In money thi.s amounts to quite a sum during the year, and they also send toothbrushes and other items that the nurse can use in her work.

Holt House Committee

IT 15 the of the Committee that Holt House hu, during the year now closing. well served its purpose as a modest shrine dedicated to the memory of the Founders of Pi Beta Phi Fraternity and as a ,Rracious house which renders valuable , and valued, se rvice to the community where that fraternil), was fo unded eighty·fj\·e years ago.

During the year, Holt House was used sixty·six limes as a meeting place for orsanizations or to provide accommodations for privllte ente rtain ing-on thirty.one of these occasions by groups affiliated with the fraternity. The chapters in the vicinity used the house for rushing parties. formal parties, cooley·shines, pledge parties, teas and for initia ti o n Thirty·one members of Illinois Eta visited the howe in a group. The alumnI! clubs of the area and the Illin ois Alpha Mothers' Club held suppers, cooley. shi nes and teas there. Three other a lumnr clubs came from distant points to hold special meetings there ; and one distant club paid a visit to the house It i5 the hope of the Committee that these groups and other distant clubs and chapters will make arran.'te. ments to visit Holt House durin.'t the year ahead, for they are most welcome. The house also accommodated, on thirty·6ve occasions, groups and individuals not connected with the Fraternity organization. Groups meetin.'!: there with regularity were t he PEO, the DAR , the OGM Bridge Club and the Monmouth Women 's Club. A nwnbcr of other organizations used the house on one OCCasion. Or more. Holt House also provided a gracious setting for teas, showers, parties and wed · din,!!: receptions g iven by individuals.

A number of lovely gifts for the house were reo ce ived during the year The Committee is very grateful to Fannie Bradford Bailey who gave to Holt House the antique oil portraits of her Major Ilnd Mrs. Holt. These portraits had previously been loaned by Mrs Bailey. The Spring6eld, Illinois, Alumnr Club presented a fine silver tray which wu greatly needed. The Spokane, Washington AlumnI! Club very thoughtfully gave a beautifu l little antique English silver "sweets basltet" in memory of Eloise Ohme Moffatt , one of their younger members who was :also a Pi Phi daughter. Mrs Moffat's name was m · graved on the little basket which was placed on the melodeon in the Victorian Pi-rlor, The Burlington · Fort Madison , Iowa, Club, after holding a meeting in the house, presented a lovely antique shadow hoI: which is to display old I. C. and Pi Phi pins . The alumnz of Mount Pleasant, Iowa , made a gift of a small check with which to buy something for the house, at the time of their meeting there; Ind a member of the Avon·Bushnell , Illinois, group left cwo pairs of pretty, old pillow shams :at the (oodu· s ion of their in Holt Hou5C To 1.11 these donors, the Committee is most grateful-for their gifts a.nd for their thoughtful interHt in the house, The itself is in good condition, only minor repairs being required during the year. The folding chairs. ordered some time ago, were received in th e summe r of 19'1 and have been put to use many A number of replacements will be necessary during the commg year; new ruffled curtains have been or· dered for the Founders' Room; several pieces of furni· ture" Will ne-ed to be re-covered; and the stai.r carpet· in.'t must soon be replaced. Also, the Victorian Parlor will need to be re·papered. The Committee will be

very gratefu l for nineteenth cmtury photographs of members. to be placed in the velvet covered album" received last year; and for old 1. C. or Pi Phi pins, [0 be placed in the shadow box received recently. Such items may be either loaned or presented to the house and wdl add a great deal to its small treasury of mementos of the early days of Pi Beta Phi.

Mabel T. johnso n, who came to Holt H ouse as hostess in December of 19S0, the house a nd its furnishings in excellent co ndition. She has assumed all the responsibilities of her position in splendid fashion a nd acts with graciousness and hospitality. Mrs JOhnson i well aware of the purpose a nd fune· tio n of H o lt Hou se. having been a M onm out h resi· dent :I II of her life. The Committee feels that the Fra· ternity is fortunate 1ft having her as hostess and is glad to report that she is apparently happy in her associ:ltion with Pi Beta Phi.

The Committee is si nce rely grateful to the many chap ters and clubs which have con tr ibuted to the su pport of Holt House this YC:If. The number of club o; contributing to the fund is, however, fewer, by nine, than the total of two·hundred twenty-two clubs which contributed during the preceding year. Amons; the clubs, the highest contributor was Kansas City, Mi s· souri, with a gift of $50.00. The Spokane, Washington, Club gave almost th.is exact amount for the pur· chase of a special memoria l gift. The second highest contributor to the general fund was the Everett Washington, Club which gave $30.00. Springfield , Illinois, gave this amount, too, for the purchase of a special gift for the house. in addition to their regular co ntributi on to the fund. The Monmouth, Illinois, alummt ArouP gave $2S .00, the third highest contri· bution to the general fund. Many other clubs were very generous in th eir gifts.

The number of cha pters supporti ng the house in · creased from eighty.6ve during 19S0·' 1 to eighty· nine during 19H ·S2 The highest contributing chap. tets were :

California r Louisiana A Oklahoma A

Ten nessee R Illinois A Kansas B

As was also true last year, every chapter .nJ eve ry club in Delta Province and in Zeta Provin n con tributed to the Holt H ouse Fund . In addition to these prOVinces, in Alpha West, Gamma, Epsil on Eta and Kappa Provinces, every chapter contributed and in Iota Province every club contributed. M one· tarily, Kappa Province contri butions were highest , followed by Eta Province in second place and by Mu Province, third.

COMMITTEE ON PUBLIC RELATIONS

HIS has been a year of survey and study, with a view to determining just what we can do best to strenAthen our Public Relations and how we can develop reliable and easily handled publicity and information for our chapters and clubs. One letter was sent in December and one in May to all alumnr and chapter publicity chairmen. A uniform 61ing box, approved by Grand Council , has been recommended to all chairme n in order that each one may have somethlOg tangible to pass on to her successor, and to enable each chairman to have quick access to materials.

It is hoped that by early autumn we may have

conside rabl e data r eady for muJtigraphi n,5t and distribution to assist publicity chairmen. It is hoped that much benefit will be gained from the Panel on Public Relations scheduled to be held at the coming Convention. In the Panel stress will be placed upon good citizenship as a privilege and opportunity for all Pi Beta Phis.

I wish to express my appreciation to those who have sent samp les of their publicity to me and to Grand President Amy B. Onken and to Gladys ScivaJly of the Central Office for especial help

NATIONAL SCHOLARSHIP COMMITTEE

SOMEtime a80 in a letter to her Province Scholarship Supervisors, Harriet Johnstone referred to th e quotation . " Edu cation is n o t preparation for life, ed ucation il li{e." For seven years this loyal Pi Beta Phi wo rked through every avenue possible to lift the scholarship level o f t he fr a ternit y 10 o ur goal o f having every chapt e r in the fraternity in th e upper third on campus. She earnes t I)' de sired th ilt th e girl s would grOw to understand th e f ull me aninA o f thi s qu o tati o n and that they wo uld be ea ger to .se ize every opportunity to be ready t o live to the full e!l t, adequately equipped , And furth e r , she want ed th e m n ever to be co nt e nt with less than an upper bra cke l pos ilion (or lh em se lves and (or Pi Beta Phi Her flie s ar e full of correspondencewith the Grand President . th e Grand Secretary, Provo ince Presidents, Prov in ce Scholarship Supervisors, the presid ents and the sc h o larship chairmen of active chap · ters, and , with special correspondence with the chapters in the lowest positi o n on their campus- as i( she wo uld pull the whole iraternity by main for ce toward lhe g o al we seek She co uld not make the .Iilrades for us but s he worked to inspire and to guid e.

Because the co mplet e figures (or a ,li;iven year are never available in time for annual reports and for the ( ompilation of the Sta ndardization an d Survey grades, i t is n«esury that the repOrt {or this $cptember 1952 ARROW describe the scholastic accomplishments (or the year 1950·51. A kindly Providence and her indomitable will and devotion enabled Miss Johnst one to complete almost the full total of this year's duty before she was tak e n (rom us and the figures Itivtn here are hers.

It would seem that you mi,litht receive a clearer picture of what your fraternity is doing in scho larship if we provide (or you a comparative outim e as follo s :

In the brac kets in the upper division i s th e numlxr of chapters in first pla ce and in th e brackets in the low!r, the number of th ose lo wes t o n campus Sliltht diff erences in total number occ ur becau se chapter s unable to report, because o( non-cooperation in the offices of their campus , were given a ,lituide to an estimated report for the year 19'0-'1. The roll of honor for first place includes : Nova Sco tia Alpha, Vermont Beta , Indiana Delta Tennessee Beta , Alabama Alpha Illinois Theta , Kansas Alpha, Col o rado Beta , Wash inAton Gamma. California Epsilon and California Zeta lowest are New York Delta Ontario Beta. Pennsvlvania Beta , Florida Gamma , JIIin oi s Epsilon. lIIinois Alpha and Nevada Alpha We re,litrel to find that some chapters with outstandinlt records in scholarship ar e no t in this list and we know. also , that other very fin e

stron,li; chapten are not here. Why?

Only two of the chapters in fi.rst place in 1949-'0 remained in lirst place in 19'0-' I-Colorado Beta a n d Washin,li;ton Gamma; of the (en others. five remained in the upper third. four dropped to a middle third, and o ne plummeted strai,li;ht to the bottom. Only one half of the thirty·ei,li;ht who were in the upper third in 1949-'0 remained there in 19'0-'1 and , of five climbed to a first place position and aD additional eight raised their averaAe But five of the other half fell ri,ght thr o u,li;h middle third to lowest third

Lookin,g at the lowest division for 1949- 50 we find that one jumped into the upper third, two into th e middl e third , two raised their avera,g e but remained in the lowest third and thr ee {ell even lower . The avera,li;es we are considerin,li; ar e computed {rom the Pi Phi formula and with the definite desire to measure a chapter accordin,li; to the co mpetition it fa ces with groups on its own campus, under like scholastic challen,li;e and study conditions It is hoped that each chapter will take a conscientious look at its own position and r i,li;htly its contribution to this whole picture Lookin,li; at the record iust told it would seem that we have Pi Phi Angels ascending and desctndiog the schollIIsti c ladder much as Jacob saw an.lilels in a dream long ago But Ja cob's descendin,lit an l!;e l s were succor to mortals below while the Pi Phi anAt'1 who has descended our ladder has no such mission! Those who love the Wine and Blue would have our ange ls a l ways ascendi ng until the top runlt of the ladd e r grows wider and wider to :accommodate them

No one else an spealc for Harriet of her appreciatio n of the assista n ce of those appointed to wo r k with her but we know t hat lihe valued it a lways because it was her custom to report th at cooperatio n an d t h e inrormation received. monthly to the Grand S«.retary . She would have thanked her supervisors ror their raithrul promo t io n of sc holarship and for their cooperation with her , She would have thanked chapters who faced their scholarship problems squarely and worked out effective plans for all-chapter improvement She would have thanked individual members, to the full extent of the roll of active chapters. who cooperated with their chapter scholarship :llld who made the fine records v.'e ho nor Sh e would have been very proud of the Iti d s who have received scholarships in her name and of others who mi,li;ht have r«eived them, had the funds been sufficient

We speak (or her, and of her. as best we can. We believe that ,li;ood scholarship in the fraternity today will d o h e r honor and brin,li; that vision of hers to con· summation- all Pi Beta Phi chapters in a secure spot in the upper third of their campus groups in sc holars hip.

Pi Beta Phi has lo st a devoted worker , a loyal memo ber and a .Iilra cious , lovel wearer of the Arrow We thank he r, in Ihis report , for all Ihat she h:u to her (rat c- rnit),.

COMMITTEE ON SOCIAL EXCHANGE

A NOTHEI. year of Pi Phi history closo:I with the .l"'- 19'1-'2 school term, and another cross-sa1.ion of the chapter social activities can be reviewed. The committtt on social exchange lost three province chairmtn this year due to UrK'lc Sam's whims and change of territory of Pi Phi husbands. One ncw c:hauman (Alpha West) replaces our Joyal co-worker, Henrietta Gamble Scripture, who passed away in August of 19' I.

The responR from chapten was good this past year, with 93 turning in reports on Founders' Day. Rushing, H omecoming and miscellaneous functions. Only five chapten neg lected to send information to their chairmen .

ProYJOces with all chapters heard (rom are: Alpha West, Beta, Gamma, Delt a, EpSilon, uta, Eta, Theta, Kappa and Mu. The two provinces most perin scores are Theta and Jota.

The twenty-six chapters rece(vmg perfect grades are : Maine A, Musachusetts B, Connecticut A, Ohio E , West Virsinia B, Virsinia A, North Carolina A. North Carolina D, Michigan A, Missouri B, Mi ssouri r. Florida A, WiJconsin B, Illinois Z, North D akota A, Minnesota A, Jowa A. Iowa r, Iowa Z, South A. Kansas A, Kansas D, Wyomins A, Utah A. Texas A and Ortson A.

The Cooperation award 80CS to Texas Alpha whose cha.irman was BoberS. She did a perfect job of vivid reportios for her chapter. The whole picture of social life of Texas Alpha was beautifully recorded, with many suggestions to be in· corporated in the Social Exchange Bulletin. It was typed IR a form easily read and docs credit to Virginia's originality and thoroughness.

The Originality award goes to Vermont Beta for their clever "dressing up" of well-loved p.trty themes

" Snow White" and "South Pacrnc." These appear in the Bulletin. The chapter social exchange chairman was Martha. Jane McNamara.

Special mention in the Social Exchange Hall of Fame is made of California Gamma for their un · usual house d«oratio ns at H om«oming and the parodies on popular songs they used at their parties Wyoming Alpha. rings the bell with the "Junk Yard" decorations for the house. which sounded most origi nal and humorous. New Mexico Alpha deserves honorable mention for their lovely "Wishing on a Star" party. Nevada Alpha "Dolled Up" ror their H om«oming float and won a place in our Hall of Fame. Oklahoma Alpha gave the best Pi Phi Circul party plan we haVe!: ever r ead. Kamas Beta has an ideal way of kt:eping their girls posted in the lummer! They send out a clever "l lick " papC!:r news bulletin called the PI PHI ARROW or "Darts and Dash el." It is a grand bit of information about the chapter to send to prospectiVe!: Pi Phi's, too.

Second place for the cooperation award goes to Kansas Beta and Louisiana Beta, while Indiana AJpha takes second place in the originality awards.

Founders' Day Bulle!:tin was not publishro in 19'. because there were so few new ideas, .so the ulable material was i ncorporated in the 19)2 Bulletin

It hal been a privilege and a continuous source of i nlpiration to work with the province!: chairmen and to hear, through them , from the actives. And actives is the word!

Many thanks are due Miss Onken . Gladys $civally , and Lucille Carson for their help and lupport. With since re appreciation for the opportunity to serve Pi Bcta Phi in lome small way, I respectfully submit this rtport.

COMMITTEE ON CHAPERONS

THE Committee on Chaperons ha s co ntinu e d its work as us ua l this past yea r The first month of the school year th e business of receiving and filing the chaperon data blanks is paramount. This year I am aga m indebted to our Chapter Corresponding -rctaries lor their promptness in sending this data to me. What a sterling quality is promptness! • ineteen app li catio n s have been sent in for the position of chape ron These applications have bttn filed so that when {he neN arises for a new chaperon in one of Our Pi Beta Phi houses, thi s commi tt ee will be able to help in tht: se lection of a housem other if ca ll ed upon. Mu ch co rr espo ndence is ca rri ed on between this committee and Advisory Board and chap· ter members at suc h • time. The maJority of our (hapero ns are probably remaining in their prdent positions since only four chapters have "ritu:n for names and qualifi catio ns of applicants to fill \'aeancies in their respe<tive houses .

TThe customary welc o ming letters were sent to a ll the n ew chaperons, and also a letter was sent to all c ha perons, in which was incorporated the ideas gleaned from last summe r 's training schoo l for housemothers by two of our chaperons who attended one of these schools _ This leHer aho gave information about the Purdue Conference for housemothers thi summer, and of our Grand Council's offer to pa) the tUllion fee of any Pi Beta Phi housemother who wishes to attend .

It is Interesting to note that thirteen of our housemothers are members of Pi Beta Phi.

To all our Nationa l and Province Officers who arc a lways so helpful, to our Central Office Staff, anJ to our beloved Onken who is never too bus)' to give of her time , I am moSt g rat eful.

Reports of Province Presidents

ALPHA EAST PROV INC E PRESID EN T

THE year 19'1·'2 has been a continuation of progress for the chapters in Alpha East Province. ,The convention delegates had an opportunity to renew friendships which had been made at cOnven· tion, at our chapter presidents' workshop which was held at Vermont Beta's house in $cptember. Seven chap ter presidents and six chapter rush captains at· tended the workshop. Discussions were held on all major phases of fraternity work and every one pre5· ent felt th.at it was a very profitable weekend

The highlight of the yca.r was to have been a visit by Miss Onken to the chapters. The actives had reo quested that I ask htt to come to visit them and they were greatly disappointed when the NADW meetio.&; conflictt:d with ber plaos and she had to postpone her visits. The province president made visits to all of the chapttts 2nd 2gain felt the great privile$e of working with the active chapters Their enthUSiasm and true Pi Phi spirit were outstanding.

We were proud to hear that Massachusetts Beta had won the Vera Moss Bowl. The Amy Burnham Onken Province winner was Margaret Cardwell, Coo· necticut Alpba. The following girls were nominatt:d by their chapters for this honor: Mary Jean Mctntyre, Maine Alpha; Helen Kondall , Massachusetts Alpha; Irene FlOan, Massachusetts Beta; Nancy Briggs, Nova Scotia Alpha; Janet West , Vermont Alpha; Jeanne Newmeyer, Vermont Beta The Portland Alumna: Club Award for the outstam:ling sophomore went to Frances Jones of Massachu se tts Beta.

Scholarship was again this year withthe majority of the chapters showing improvement. Nova Scotia Alpha, Massachusetts Beta and Vermont Beta placed first on the fall report. Maine Alpha. Connecticut Alpha and Vermont Alpha pullt:d up their rank The February report showed that some of the chapters had a slightly lower average while Vermont Alpha a nd Massachusetts Alpha showed improvement. Ad a Haggett scholarship agai n this year for the province and was of great help to the chapters.

Rushing which was held during the first semester at all chapters except Vermont Alpha, was very sue·

IctSsful. A total ' of II S girls were pledged and a large percentage of these girls was initiated. Rush plans were simplified, (or the activ(,s felt that all possible time shou ld be spent in getting t o know the rushees.

The housing sit uation w as tbe same as that of last )'car. Connecticut Alpha, Vermont Beta and Massa · chusetts Beta have houses. These chapters were fortunate in having fine chaperons who were sincerely interested in th e girls. Massachusetts Alpha, Maine Alpha, and Vermont Alpha have meeong rooms

Nova ScotIa Alpha held meetings at th e holllC$ of members again this year since their efforu to find a permanent meeting place were not successful.

I can't give 100 much praise to the fine relations hip between the actives and the alumna! advisers. Thqo have worked together closely and this cooptra· lion has been, in a great way. responsible for the strength of the chapters. 10 my cooferen ces with the Deans of Women I found that the Pi Phis are held in high regard on all campuses.

Preparations are being made for convention and twelve girls are planning to attend from this province 10 some instances the chapters have contributt:d to the alternate's expenses. Vermont Beta 's plt:dges raIsed $n and the actives vott:d to give the money, budgeted for their sprinA formal, to their alternate. In other chapters the alternates will take care of their own expenses.

In closing J would like to take this opportunity to thank the actives land the 2lumn:r 2dvisers for their whole hearted cooperation and their expressions of true fnendship. I feel a deep sense of appreciation for the loyal and helpful support of Grand Council , National Committee Chairmen and Central Office. The last thrtt years, during which I have hem in close contact with the active chapters and Miss Onken , have m:tde me realize how very high the standards of Pi Beta Phi arc and how grateful we all should be for having such an outstanding woman, as Amy Burn· ham Onken, for our Grand President ANNIE LAURIE KEYS WHIPPLE

ALPHA PROV INCE W EST

T IS a pleasure to review the work of this year with the chapters of Alpha Province West. The cooperation which J have received from the activC5 has been excellent through the year. Scholarship has not too hi,lo:h on three of the campuscs--however the girls have b«:n working very hard on that, with differen t plans and aid to the under average students. Extra -c urri cular activities have been outstanding this year in this group, and the Pi Phis have woo more than their share of honors, in high offices held.

The Amy Burnham Onken Awa.rd was won this year by Nancy Rankin of New York Alpha . It was my privih!ge to present it to her at the initiation banquet held in Syracuse. The other nominees from this province were : Joanne Von Noppen , New York Gamma , Eliubcth Waltz , New York Delta, Patricia Moore, Ontario Beta and Ucelia Eberle, Ontario Alph a. My visit to the chapters this year was in March, as some of the char.ters had the privilege of a visit earlier in the yeal rom Mn. Wild Personal

co ntacts with the girls , the Deans, and the university personnel is always a great inspiration to me, and the bonds of sympathy and friendship are strengthened. Also the problems that arise through the year are more simple to settle, as more knowledge is 1(. quirt:d of personalities.

All of the province chapters have co ntributed to each o ne of the National Fraternity projects. Also two of them have the so le support of a European child. Most of them also have Christmas parties and benefits for the underprivilegt:d children in their area, and give aid and assistance in the altruistic movemenl5 of their college tow ns

New York Delta. Ontario Beta, Onta.rio Alph a, have all done extensive repairs and put many improvements in the respective fraternity houses. New York Gamma. has been enjoying their lovely new house It is cuefulJy and tastefully decorated. and very cha rming Ne-w York Alpha has a lovely house which is kept in perfect condition New York Alpha

this last month had the honor to initiate their beloved Head ReSident into Pi Beta Phi. I was more than happy to attend that initiation. The stro n#( Alumna' Club of Toronto plans to hold a Baz aar this year for the benefit of the actives. Some of the in thIS province are sma ll-bu t very enthusias ti c, anJ o nly one chapter is handicapped by having no official club The province president should like to express gratitude nere for the ,qreal 2Ssistance given to he. , and to the chapters by the interested alumnz On all but one \.ampus in this jl:roup there is growin,g anti · fraternity feeling. It hois reached very seriow propor· tions on one campus

Rushing has very satisf:tclOry this year , and all of the new members are of a stand.ud entirely sa ti.sfactory to the ideals of th e fraternity Our prov· ince worluhop was held. beCore the col·

Fleges opened. at the Lake Placid Club. It was an in· spiration and a great .satisfaction to accomplish as much as we did during that meeting. In clOSing. I should like to express my gratitude to Mrs. Smith for her great assistance to the chapters and me. Her unfailing efforts to help the scho larship in this province ca nnot hdp but produce fine reo su Its . My appreciation goes too to Miss Onken for he. unfailing assistance and understand in",. Her helpful guidanct: as with other members of Grand Council is deepl} :lppreciated by me. II has been a great privilege and joy to work in Ihis province, and as we near the end of thi s year-may each chapte r can· tinut' to 1'0 Forward :tnd Upward toward ou r goal.

RIENDSHIPS made at the Ch.tpter President's work.· shop last summer hoive helped all of us make our desire of coopera tion and helpfulness really come true. The Province has worked hard in all phases of Pi Phi and the results have been most gratifying. W e have had a wo nderful yeu. The eva l uation of all of our chapters by Deans and faculty has proved that working for and with Pi Phi ideals puu our girls in places of high esleem. Need I say it has been a privilege (0 work with girls such as ours?

We are most proud of Ohio Alpha. a.nd Penn · sy lvania Gamma who are in first place in scholarship on t hei r respective campuses. We are lik ewise proud of every Pi Ph i, no matter what her chapter's rank , who did her very best to keep her grades high We can't " all a lw ays" be h rst but we ca n kc..'Cp on slri · ing fo r that goal.

Rushing results throughout the province were generally gra.tiJying A vcry high percent vf Airls pledged will be initiated Rushing recomm e ndati ons were followed very closely. Without an exception every Pledge SuPt'nisor has done a.n exce llent piece of work with her pledge class. We have gained in having two campuses change from second to first smlester rushing. Toledo University and Ohio Wes · leyan University will rush first semester while Buck· nell University will change to second semester. All o ther chapters will rush shortly after school opens.

Ohio Delta is still enjoying their lo ely chapler house and are taking such good Cllre of it. Ohio Beta Chapter beautifully redecorated and refurni shed the first Boor Williamsburg influence still predomi· nates West Virginia Alpha will ha e a newly·fur· nished chapter room when they return next fall. The girls es did most of the work and made good use of a few money donations from interested alumnz clubs and their Mother's Club. Ohio Alpha is looking forward to new decorations which wi ll be: ready for next September. Ohio Epsilon, Pennsyl · vania Beta and Gamma enjoyed newly decorated suites

Tthe past year.

The extra.curri cular acttvltles of all of the chap. ters have not only benefited each individual participant but made a grcOlt co ntribution to each campw. Pi Phis have. no t just "joined" hut have held many offices and chamnan ships. tudent government, class offices, pub· lications, YWCA, Red Cross and religious organiza · tions have many Pi Phis as lead e rs, not to mention the lovely queens The honoraries too have elected many of our Sirls

It is difficult to choose just one girl from all of our leaders and I want to mention ach chapter's candidate for the Beta Pco ince Amy Burnham Onken Award Ohio Alpha chose as their candidate, Joan Vance; Ohio Beta , Susan Rector; Ohio D elta. Betsy Baldwin; Oh io Epsi lon, Joan M ache n ; Ohio Ze ta , Joanne Wallace; West Virgi n ia Alpha, Betty Jean Hollister; West Virginia Beta , Jane Sea l ; Pennsyl· \'ania Beta , Eliubeth I. Myers ; and Pennsylvania Gamma. Joy ce Cameron Ingham J oyce was the winner of the Provin ce award.

The chapters were all 100 % in cootri butions to National. Local philanthropies found many active Pi Phi) helpin,g out with their program.

The Advisory Boards deserve credit for the hne fraternity se rvice rend e red Cooperation between ac· lives and Alumnr has made active·alumnz relations most enjoyable and beneficia l to the fraternity Our head residents too have been a joy for everyone to work with.

As we prepare for Convention a greater r eOlliza tion comes to us of the extent and influence Pi Phi has on the lives of so many.

J wa.nt to thank Miss Onken and the other memo bers of Grand Council, the Director of Central Office , as well as National Committee Chairmen for their inspiration and help the year. It has been a to sene lhe Fr.ttcrnity.

Sincerely,

LLNESS made it necessary [or Carol Cook to resign as Province President in June, 19H, and I was appointed as her successor at that time. The first item on the asmda was the Chapter Presidents' Workshop, wruch was held at the Hotel Indiana. Ft Wayne, Indiana. August 26-28, 19'1. Seven chapter presidents and one pledge supervisor were the official delegates, and in addition two pledge supervisors were sent at chapter expense. We were privileged to have Helen Anderson Lewis, Director of RUShing and Pledge Tra.ining. with UJ for the entire session and gained much from her inspiration and guidance. The astic partICipation in the discussion groups by all the delegates was proven most valuable by the many ideas and suggestions adopted by many of th e chapte rs throughout th e year

The next highlight was the official visit of inspection t o the Gamma Gamma loca l sorority at Ball State Teachers College, Mun cie, India na. Gamma Gamma was the first soro rity organized on the Ball State and has been interested in a charter [rom Pi Beta Phi for some time Official delegates from each o[ the eight chapters in the province, and I , spent Novembet 3rd with them We were entertained at lunch by the Pi Beta Phi Alumnr Club of Muncie, at a tea by the Gamma Gamma Alumnr and at dinner by the active chapter. Intervi ews were with the chapter officers. college administration and faculty

Upon receipt o[ the visit reports, Grand Council voted to permit Gamma Gamma to petition Pi Beta Phi at the convention to be held i n Houston, Texas, in July, 19'2

Alice Mansfield, Director o[ Extension, viJited all chapters in Delta Province last fall 00 behalf of Grand Council. Reports coming to me after her visits, from the actav6, prove she made many friends, and brought to the chapters a broader and deeper knowledge of tht significance of our national organintion.

The province scho larship r ecord has been main· tained this year under the very able directioo o[ M arie Wr:ver, Province Scholarship Supervisor. I wish to thank her for the: work she has done. and to extend

to her all credit for the very estimable record of the province. There are two chapters which hold the rat· ing of first place on their respectiv e campu$Cs for the [all semester 19'1-'2, Mich igan Alpha of Hillsdale College, and Indiana. Delta of Purdue University, and for Indiana Delta this was the fourth consecutive semnter they have retained the first place standing. Indiana Gamma was in seco nd place on the Butler UniverSity ca mpu$. and Mi ch igan Gamma was third at Michigan State, and Indiana Alpha third at Franklin College. No chapter in the province was l ower than middl e third. Delta Provin ce has always recognized the value of scholarship and the integral part it plays in college life, and a policy of continued emphasis will be 10110.,«1.

The chapters in this province are aware of the value of activity participation as a mnns of d"elop· ing Indership. This is shown by th eir programs to develop a well·balanced participation, and to encour· age girb to work toward a definite goal and not to stress membership at random in many organizations. Every chapter has bad excdleot repr ese ntation in the variouJ campus activities, with members of Pi Beta Phi servin8 in positions o[ honor a nd distinction .

Carol Mitchell, of Indiana B, received the Amy Burnham Onken Award [rom Delta Province. She 'WlS truly representative of the four points on which this award is given, although the selection of a province winner was extremely difficult since the candidatH were all such outsta nding girls. The chapter nomin ees [or this award were; Mi chigan A., Virginia Hungerford Donovan; Mi chiga n B, J o Ann Grill; Michigan r, Patricia Gillard; Indiana A, Jane Hartley; Indiana B, Carol Mitchell ; Indiana r, Barbara uisler; Incii · an a 4, Mary Ferguson; Indiana E, Marilyn lOomas Indiana 4 was awarded the Indiana Cup, donated by the Indianapolis Alumnr Club to the most outstand· tng Indiana Chapter.

EPSILON PROVINCE PRESIDENT

HIS has bc-en a most gratifying year for a new Provin ce President The (act that the year has ended wilh so much accomplished is due to the wonderful enthusiasm and loyalty which Epsilon activ es and pled8es have had (or all things Pi Phi and to the invaluable assistance which has been so graciously given me by Miss Onken Alice Man s field and other memo bers of Grand Council; Mari e former Gr a nd Council member ; Polly Fessey, former Epsilon Provo ince President; Gladys Scivally of Central Offi ce and the Alumna: Advisory Committees of each Epsilon c hapter T o the nuny active and alumnr members of our fnterni:r who have been so helpful, so under· standing an so inspiring throughout this past year, J woule! like to express my heartf e lt appreciation, as I felt my way through the many facets invo lved in the work of a province president.

The workshop for c hapter presidents was held ea rly In September at the Tennessee Beta chapter house in Nashville. Nashville actives, alumnr and mothers were onderfu ll y hospitable to the e leven c hapter representatives, the Director of Extension, the reti r lO,It aocl in coming P rovince Pres idents who com· posed this co n ference group.

All chapters were visited On the va r ious weekends between mid·Oct ober a n d early D ecember. These were especully worthwhile occasions for me for not only W:l.S 1 able to see how graciously Fp«:i lnn c hapt ers r ece ive their visitors, these were days of forming friendships and understanding which meant so much as we worked together throughout the year. Each visit was a distinct pleasure and I am s ure that I learned much more than I could possibly have given in the short time J had bttn in office.

Housing in Epsilon is not too different from pre· vious yean although many improvements have been made during the year. Missouri A has the largest houc;e in the province and fifty girls live there during the college year. This chapter is still enjoying th e extensive first· floor redecoration that was completed the previous year. The Missouri Beta room in the Woman's had its face lifted from traditional to contemporary! The work was begun a year ago and the transformation was fini s hed las t spring. Missouri I' moved to larger quarters nearer the campus in May and while there is much summer work to be done by town actives, the chapter expects to have a fine new c hapter home for next fall 's rushing Kentud:y A had such a sparkling·fresh white paint job on their house at the time of my visit that I sti ll have a we e r eg ret that I did no t follow through on the urge to leave a handprint (or posterity on some obscure clapboard! The interior of Tennesset' A's house was reo decorated and it is "cry attractive and spacious. An interior porch one end of the living room and with the new full drapes thi s makes a wonderful im· promptu stage for s kit s. Twelve members li\ e in th e Tennessee Beta house, and following a three )'eu rotation plan. thi( chapter concentrated on the exte ri or

Workshop guests hu,;e ly en· joyed fragments of th e painters' conversJtiuns that floated in through the windows and punc · tuated Our Tne Tenn essee I' room in the Pannelleni c wa s also r edecora ted The need f o r space was beautifully handled by use of built·ins. co ntemporary furnishings, mirrors and an adroit of color.

In scholarship J believe that Epsilon chapters would be the first to admit that we cou ld du better. We are indeed proud that Tenn essee 8 was first o n its campus for I and that Missouri \ a nd Ten · n essee A were in the upper third . Before th e inco m· plete records of other c hapters for that year were sent in and the resulting averages computed and sent to me, the death of our National Scholarship Chairman occ urred and I am unable to include o ther placin,!;s at this time Epsilon mourns the loss of Harriet Ruth e r · ford Johnstone as a dear and beloved friend who for years gave se l flessly of herself for the fraternity she loved and the cause of good scholarship in which she be l ieved. We could give no ,!;reater tribute to her memory tha n to live up to the best in scho larship which she expected from each co ll ege membe r of Pi Beta P h i.

During late February and March, six of the seven Epsilon chapters ere honored to have Mrs. Wild, Grand Vice PreSident , as their guest. Missouri r whu had Miss Onken tne previous year was the o nly ex· ception. Each chapler wrote me of the many helpful suggestions Mrs . Wild had made and of its pleasure in having her with them for even limited time. I n · enthusiasm and chapter activity wcre immedi· ately evident!

Interest in the three national projects increased this year. Every Epsilon cha pter has contributed to the Settlement School. Holt House and the Harriet Johnstone Scholarship Fund In addition all gave financial and service aid to local campus and civic needs. Missouri IJ, Mi ssou ri l' and Tennessee 8 con· tinued their interest in Save the Childre n. Many chap· ters have an interest in underprivileged children.

Th e nominees for the Amy B. Onken Award were proudly presented for they were truly outstanding girls in their chapters. Harriet Bell oC Missouri A won the Province A ard. The other nominees were Carolyn Metzger Harmon of Missouri n, Nancy Ho i· land of Mi sso uri Nancy McCoy of Kentucky A , Sally Mims of Tennessee J\ , Ann Weir Sargent of Tennessee 0 and Barbara Huff BeVille of Tenn essee J',

In closing this report , I should again like to express my appreciation for the fine assistance given by Alumna> Advisory Committees to thcir chap te r s and to me this year. and to Epsilon actives and pledges, my sincere for their loya l cooperation and warm (rlendships.

Zeta Province was privileged to have Luci le Dougtass Carson visit the chapters in DecC!mber. The inspiration and increased knowledge of the fraternity which she gave: will remain with the chapters All chapters were visited by the province president, except Georgia Alpha where several short visits were made duri ng the year. I shall always remember the gracious hospitality exte nd ed by all a nd I left each chapter with inc rea sed pride in Pi Beta Phi and ap pr«iation of the serv ice the active chapt er members are giving to th eir campusn and to the fraternity.

The year began with the friendships and high mora le resulting from the Chapter President's Conference in Savannah In addition to the chapter president four ch.pters sent pledge-supervisors. Results of this have been reflected in chapter organiza' tion and activities throughout the year

All the chapters have been 100 % contributors to the fraternity'S projects as well as to many loca l and civic projects and province Amy Burnham Onken Award went to Luci lle Rogers , Florida n. The other were Patti Reo:I, Alabama A; Betty Spain, Alabama 8; Margaret Partin, Flori da A; Jean Florida r; Virginia Cooper, Georgia A

The province has had some outsta ndin g success during the year in scholarship. Alabama A retired the

IPanhellenic Scholarship Trophy, having won it for the last three consecutive qua.rt ers a.nd is first again for two quarters in 19S1-S2. The average of the chapter is on ly a fra ction of a point below the Dean's List. Florida B has first place: for the s«ood consecutive year. Georgia A is first for the year 19S0-H. Only one chapter is below the upper third group.

Activity participation is high and active members and pledges have achieved many outstanding honors this year.

ETA PROVINCE PRESIDENT

AM SUR.E that the Province Preside nts wh o have served the (raternity before me have finished their seco nd year with the feeJing of satisfaction and gratitude that I am experienci ng as I write my annuaJ report. Those of use who have had the privilege of working with sorority groups o n our college campuses a re proud of the services they render to higher education. More and our colleges are realizing that the is an integral part o f th e college campus and that it does not exist apart or by itself.

This past year, Eta Province Presid01t has felt very close to nine chapters and has seen a closer bond between the chapters; both are th e results of the fin e Workshop held late last summer. Fifteen girls attended the two day conference, all contributing greatly to its success and each taking back to her chapter, inspi.ration, ideas, and methods of improvement.

The six JIIin o is chapters were honored this year by visits from Mrs Alford. Their enthusiastic letters told me of th e help s h e gave them ; especially did they gain from her a keener insight into the nati o nal fraternity, and a finer spirit of coo peration and real friendliness I was fortunate and happy to make a two day visit to each of the nine chapters 1t was gratifying to hear from each Dean o f Women that Pi Phi stands in high regard with college authorities and that the standard of high ideals set up by ou.r fratemity is the goal of each chapter.

The Amy B Onken Award winner for Eta Province is Catharine Croneis, Wisc onsi n B, sister of th e winner of the N ational ABO Aw a rd last year. All the candidates dest:rve specia l rec og niti o n : Wisconsin A, Gloria Sutcliffe; Wisco nsi n r , Shirley Schaefer; fIIinoi s A, Mucia M cKee; Illinois B-4 , Marjorie Stuart; Illinois B, Elizabeth Taylor; lIJio ois Z, M ary

Riley; Illinois n , Barbara Banner ; Illinois e, Norma Warri ck.

Housi ng situa tion in the province remains practi callr the same, with the exception of Illinois e who wil have a new house by next fall. Work to add on to the present house has begun and it is hoped that rush week in the fa.1I will be held in a very elegant new home Wisco nsin r bas redecorated its room in Pan hellenic house and has added some new pieces of furniture Wisconsin A ba.s redecorated its downstairs, and with new carpeting and upholstery has created a charming atmosphere. Illinois E 's living rooms are a lso beautifully done over. As far as I know , all chapt ers are privileged to have their chaperones return to them next year. Illinois Theta's chaperon, Mrs Fahnestock, was pledged and initiated this year and will attend convention nat month.

I am sad to say that scholarship is Eta Province's w ta k point. Scholarship data for the year is incomplete, but for the first SC'lllCSter, w e had only o ne chapter in first place, Wisconsin B who has hem first 00 its camp us eight times of the last eleven .semesters. Tbe chapters, as a whole, have good averages but there are other groups that rank higher. In some cun, only a (nction of a point has kept them from a higher ranking I feeJ confident that diligent effort will be ma de not year to greatly improve the scholastic picture in Eta Province. Special mention must be made of the pledge class of Illinois Z, for eight of its members made AAo., one other was eligible scholastically but was a sophomore.

In acttvity participation iMcc has been a decid ed improvement thr o ughout the province Space does not permit 1M to mention all the top offices and key position, held by Pi Phis In publications, in Student Councils. in Stud01t Union,. in WRA, in all 6eldl,

TH ETA PROV IN C E PRESID E N T

HE Th eta Pro vince Workshop for chapter prtsi dents and pledge supervisors, held in August, 1951 , at Vacation Village, Lake Okoboji , Iowa , sent the twelve chapter delegates who attended enthusiasti · cally on their way into the 19)1-)2 college year, with new ideas to put into effect in their own chapters and an infectious Pi Beta Phi spirit which in many cases gave a lift to the spirit of the entire chapter

Rush seasons throughout the province ranged from sa t isfactory to high ly s u ccessful. One of our goals this ya r was "100% in itiation of p ledges ," but we didn ' t make it. Two pledge'! were b roken , and there were a very small number of holdover pledges , The percentage of WI'! pleasin!tly hi.e:h

After a thrtt-year trial of deferred rushing , the University of Manitoba is returning to fall rushing , beginning in September, 1952. All Theta Province chapters will now have their major rush seaSOn! in the faJ!. Another change is the adoption by Panhel lenic at the State University of Jowa of the rush councillor system,. effective nat fall and after the University of Minnesota ' s successful system Panhellenics on several campuses have found that the changinA times created a need for revision of tush rules and procedures Throughout the pro"ince there is a trend toward the rewriting of rush rules to make them more flexible and more responsive to the nttds o f both chapttr and rushee.

The scholastic records of our Theta Province chap · ters are in all instances creditable, although not as uniformly superior as they have in some years . All chapters were above the all-wom e n's average, and above the fraternity women ' s average-with four t hapters in the upper third , three chapters in the middle third, and none in the lower third , according to the Pi Beta Phi formula.

Our chapters ate very much aware that excell ence in scholastic performance is a goal toward which each individual member of Pi Beta Phi mu st wo rk , and we do have in our province a responsible attitude toward the importance of superior scholarship . There were innumerable elections to d e partmental honoraries far too many to list Parti c ipation in campu s act i viti es has been bett e r th a n eve r , br inging credit to individual Pi Phis a nd their chapt e rs. h has been especially pl eas in g t o no te a tre nd t o w a rd mo re

widespread participation through o ut chapters and demonstrations of real teamwork on all -c hapter proj · ects h was very gratifying in offi c ial visits to Jearn that deans of w o men , or persons occupying comparable positi ons, were most complimentary about the good citizenship of members of Pi Beta Phi on their campuses. about their high social s tandards. their contri · but ions to and leadership in the coilege community.

Emphasis on developi ng a national viewpoint of the fraternity, inc luding and support of our nationa l projects , was one of our province goals this year, and there was a real effort made toward better programs, use of the fraternity movies , displays of Settlement School article s, a \' is it to H o lt HOUSf , enof applications fo r scholarships , and a groWlOg u,' areness that we are pan of a large fraternity family

. Many chapters sponsor philanthropies of their own o r share in campu s-wide projects, or contribute services which w o uld earn for tbem a gold star in the " good deeds" department.

To Itive a cross- section picture of the college year we need to menti o n so me of the spc<ial events, both chapter and campus which highlighted chapter activities . High on the list are the football weekends in th e fall - the H o mecomings and Dad ' s Day Weekend s; the Snow Weeks. Campus Carnivals, and Greek Weeks, Iowa Stat e' s Veishea, North Dakota ' s Flickertail Follies, Manitoba ' s Freshie Week, Iowa Wesley · an ' s student festival , Simpson ' s College Campus Day - plus all the tours : Simpson ' s choir, Jowa Wesleyan ' s choir and basketball team , North Dakota ' s hand and madrigal society , l owa ' s Scottish Highlanders (in all of which many Pi Phis participate). Parents, fa c· ulty members , alumnr . and dates are the principal recipients of Pi Phi hospitality ; every chapter had a full 50Cial program which included all at some time o r other , plus in many instances exchanges with othe r wo men ' s fraterniti es . lo\\'a Alpha a nd Io wa Gamma reported e5pc<iall} w o rth"' hile o bse rvan ces of Chapter Loyalty Day, with p rogram s o n early h i story and Carrie Chapman Calt It is a pleasure t o report that mo re -and better Pi Phi ight pro grams are beco ming th e rul e rath e r than th e excep t io n throughou t th e province Fo un de rs' day is

o f a very mt'alJins::ful day to everyo ne, .nd all of the chapters without ex ception reported esp«ially lovely Founders' Day celebrations with their alumnr Iowa A' s Founders ' Day was extra special , sin ce they a nd several Mount alumna: spent it al Holt

Active-alumnr relations have been , for the most part . good throughout the province. Alumnr ad· visory ommittees have been right behind their chap· tus and most htlpful and cooperative. Mothers ' clubs , alumnr clubs , and house corporation committees-as well as alumnr advisory committees- have given much in time and understanding as well as in material gifts. It has b«n pleasing to find many evidences of pleasant social relationships between alumna: and actives, an increase in the number of alumnr sponsors of pledgtS, and an increasing awareness on the part of actives that a lumn az may br fun to Ienow, too.

We are also grateful to the five chaperons for the high sta ndards of entertainment, management, and supervisio n which they set It has bren good to have with us the continuing loyalty and fine service of Iowa O's Mrs Boshart and Iowa Z's Mrs, Evans and a pleasure to welcome thrtt new cftaperons, Iowa I"s Mrs. Martin, Minnesota A' s Mrs, John, and North Dakota A.'s Mrs, Huyck.

Five of our chapters live in houses; Iowa A has an apartment , and Manitoba A, after its second move this year, i.s no." a partner in an arrangmlent whi ch is proving very salis factory , The chapter has the sole use of • non·resident fraternity house one night a week and is gready enjoying the facilities in space and equipment , Iowa A' s pledges did a fine job of rtdecorating the apartment kitchen. Perhaps it was the bright, new IUtchen as inspiration; in any event, the chapter ' s Saturday night suppers in the apartment have become an "Institution." The chapter houses are substantially the same as in last year's reo port , The most extensive redecorating project was that o f Minnesota Alpha, including complete redecoration of the living room, ne-w draperies in the dining room , repainting o f rooms , and a number of new lamps North Dakota A refurnished all the bedrooms

VI'!e are very proud that o ne of the thrtt top chap· ter awards announ ced a t the Province Officers ' Work· s hop held in Gatlinburg in June, went to a Theta Province chapter It was exciting n ews to aU of us that Iowa I' was awa.rded the Philadelphia Cup.

The nominees for the Amy Burnham Onken Awar d for 19 ) I ll were wonderful examples of what an ab le, energeti c Pi Beea Phi active can achieve and can be to her fraternity and her co llege The girls so honored by their chapters were : Margaret Paterson , M innesota A, Theta Province Award winner; Charlotte Clark, Iowa B; Barbara Short, Jowa r; Marian Guy. Iowa Z; and Ragna Perrin, North Dalc:ota :\

Again this year I found that the mos t effective work with the chapters was done through personal contacts-at the chapter presidents' workshop or at the time of the official visits made between November a nd February. A province president's work is thrilling and rewarding-and never more SO than when :I kn o tty problem has been worked out to a success(ul conclUSion or a chapter president writes a touching note o( appreciation It has bttn a source of very rC'":l1 satisfaction to have been of some small service

To Miss Onken and t o all of Grand Council , th e Director of Central Offi ce, and the chairmen of na · tional committees all of us in the province are in · debted for and guidance It has been a privilege a nd a JOy to know and work with these wonderful Pi Phis-the national office-s, the active chapters , and their alumnr .

IOTA PROVINCE PRESIDENT

! fine organization which had been built up in Jota Provin ce carried it through the loss of two Province Preside nts in I short time and through tM days when I with mu ch gr o ping " 'as ta.king over the work I should like to express my appreciation to .11 the officers who answered questions for me at the Gatlinburg meeting and to the actives, Alumnr Ad visory Commiu , Alumnr, housemothers and abov e all to Miss Onken fo r the patien ce and support s hown me.

KAPPA PROVINCE PRESIDENT

HAPT ER preside nts and pledge supervisors of Kappa Provi nce chap te rs gathered at Lake M ur· ray Lodge, Oklahoma for their Province Work shop jus t before sc hoo ls opened last fall. An intensiv e twoday program of rou nd tables brought wo rthwhil e discuss ion of a ll phases of chapter operatio n and fra· ternity sta ndar ds. The Province Vi ce Preside nt hon· o red us with a visit for OM afternoon , which provided opportunity for her exce llent assistance with c hapter a lumnr matters

All chap ters in the Province have rec eived th e m· spira ti o n of a Grand Council visitor this year: the Grand President vis iting Oklah oma A and Oklahoma B in th e fall, a nd the Grand Treasurer the other chapters In the spring. As a result, the Province Pres ident timed h e r visits t o Louisiana and Tex as chap t ers in the (all; to Oklaho ma and Arkansas in ea rly January

Sch o la rs hip has been stressed as greatly as ever and ye t o nl y o ne first p lace on ca mpus for first semes ter was repo rt ed- Arkansas A! How e ver , th e pledges of Oklahoma A again won fir st place among th e fnl cr· nity pledges.

Kapp a Prov i nce Supe rv isor of Scho larship has worked closely with a ll c hapter scho larship chaltmen and has been of gri..-at assista n ce, suggesting study incentivc;s , a nd erKourag ing to maximum efforts. Though the de· si red goals have nOt bCC!n attained in a ll cha pt ers, the re IS a genera l evide n ce of appreciation of the for good scholarship and a desire to hold the chap· ter's attention toward major accomplis hm e nts in this frate rni ty ob J«h\'e.

Texas n dedicated its new house with quiet ce re· mo ny in early November. They had moved into it at the beginning of the fall semester. than ks to the con· ce ntr at ed effor ts of the Hou si n g Corporation who devoted lo ng summer hours to the supervision of build · ing, decorating and furnishing details. It is one of th e loveliest of t he e leven women 's frater n ity houses to open thi s year at Southern M e thodi st University, and provides attractive accommodatio ns for thirty memo bers. N o othc r maj or hou se c hanges were mad e in Kappa Province this year, although Loui siana A, Arkansas A, T cxas A and Oklahoma R all sa w reo decoration to some exten t . Oklahoma A is remode lin g thi s s ummer to add greater space to the dining·room and k.it che n , provide extra bedrooms and a sleepi n g porch up sta irs, and make :l patio a t th e bac k of th e house,

ServinA again as chaperons were "our" Mrs. Clif· t on at Ark a nsas A, Mrs. Quigley at Oklahoma A, an d Mrs. Parkt:r at Oklahoma H Texas A welcomed a new chaperon. Mrs George Pedigo, and Texas O's were fortunate 10 securing M rs. Ruth to their hou)e experie nces with them

Sophomore pledgin8 remains in force at Arkansas A, although an added Freshman Tea this year allowed some slight knowledge of the fraternity houses and membership for the freshman women students. Though freshmen may be pledged at all other chapters, they must live in school dormitories Upperclass pledges have the privilege of living in the fraternity houses of Arkansas A, Oklahoma A and H i no pledges lived in the Texas A and B houses last year, as all rooms were to mke care of active members All chapters paid ardul attention to special conferences, individual contacts and joint social and program affairs in order to maintatn a dose relationship between out-of-house members a nd pled8C5 and the house members , Kappa Province initiated 174 of their faJl pledges, which was exactly the same total as last year, though there were slight variations in chapter numbers. About twenty pledges were added second semester, of whom many have been initiated in order to attend convention.

In the field of public relations, Kappa Province has conti nued its attention to faculty·chapter contacts, al· most every chapter honoring the Dean of Women, and several extending their courtesies to many faculty members through regularly scheduled dinners followed by programs with informal discussions between the faculty guests and chapter members.

Exchange dinners were found valuable in interfraternity relationships at Arkansas A, Oklahoma B, and Texas A. Info rmal coke parties brought both fraternity and nonfratemity guests to the Texas B hoUR, and all chapters entertained at numerous dessert parties and Open Hous es for other fraternities

Attention to Pi Bet. Phi projects added $330.00 to (ile Settlement School, to the Johnston e Scholarship Fund, and $140.00 to Holt H ouse. Texas B won the 6rst place among active cha.pters for sales through the Magazine Age ncy

Louisiana A and n enjoyed spring week·end house · parties on the Gulf Coast, the Louisiana A's gathering also for a pre-rush house·party last fall. Louisiana B

Itimed theirs to include Founders' Day, a repeat of last yea r's successful celebration.

Texas 8 held a Retreat at their new chapter house, and Texas A held two-the first at Bastrop Park, primarily directed toward discussion of chapter functioning, goals and fraternity ideals; the second at Mo Ranch , with faculty leaders. coocerned "Personal Ad· justments." These serious discussions are indred worthwhile, as are the weekly devotionals begun this year at Arkansas A and Oklahoma A, a nd the con· houed regular devo.1ionals held every weekday evtning by Oklahoma B.

Texas A celebnted its Fiftieth Anniversary with :I Banquet at which all but one of its ten charter memo bers were present. Two hundred Oklahoma Pi Phis met at Norman for State D ay held in conjunction with Founders' Da y, with Oklahoma A and the Norman alumnr club acting as hostesses.

It would be impossible to list the many truly out· sta nding achievements of the Kappa Provin ce chapters!

Nominated by their chapters for the Amy B. Onken Award were Airls whose records wer e indeed enviable : Nancy Anne Hall , Arkansa.$ Ai Marion Andrus, Loui · siana A; Mary Frances Huckins, Louisiana B; Julia Beckman. Oklahoma A; Mary Lou Armstrong, Oklahoma B; Laura Hillhouse, Texas B-and the Kappa Province winner, J03n Ragsdale, Texas A.

Generally spealdng, has been a good year (or Kappa Province chapters, "here are, and probably always will be, particular points that cou ld have greater emphasis and there remains much that is still within the realm of possible achievement. But the spirit of Pi Beta Phi is strong and the desire to exemplify its ideals is sreat-and with that kind of attitude we can surely say with James Freeman Clarke : " He who believes in goodness has the essence of all faith. He 15 a man of cheerful yesterdays and confident tomorrow.$." We sha ll go on to those co nfident to· morrows!

Respectfully.

LAMB DA PROVINCE PRESIDENT

T IS with deep regret that r give up my place as Lambda Province President with a look to the future when I hope, in a few years, to be able to serve Pi Phi again in some capacity, and a look to the past two yealS with heartfelt gratitude to the Fraternity for the opportunhy of meeting, knowing, and wo rking with the wonderful active members. the a1umn2:, and the national officers who have all been. a source of true in'!.piration to me.

The Province chapter presidents' Workshop h(ld in August at the lovely Alderbrook Inn on Hood 's Canal started the year off right for all the Chapters through thtir represmtatives, nine chapler presidents and six Pledge Supe"isors. In spite of the beautiful su rroundings all the girls were eager to make the most of the short time for the benefit of their chapters, and hard work was the order of the day far on into the night. I think the outcome was that every girl went back to her chapter full of ambition to help her chapter become the best ever, and full of that "Pi Phi that comes from working with congenial Pi Phis of other chapters.

Lambda Province program for getting the most out of college life necessarily puts special emphasis on scholarship. Each chapter had 6ne plam for helping and encouraging its members and pledges, and all are very grateful to Ruth Bate, Provioce Scholarship

MILDRED SALE

Chairman, for the concrete suggestions she $.ave. Mon· tana A and Oregon I' were first on their lists while Alberta A wa.s second, and the others stand at various intervals downward , It is obvious that continued em· phasis should be placed on scholarship next feat and it can be hopc:d that the results will then be more seatifying since the attitude of every chapter is exceJ. lent.

As an indication of our supremacy in campus servo ice I am proud to report 21 members of Mortar Board or the equivalent, and there is promise of continuing se rvice in the many members of under-classmen's servo Ice hoooraries. We ate proud to have, also, 11 members or • B K or • K + Of equal significance is th e fact that most of the Deans of Women praised. the Pi Phis highly foe their coopc:ration with the adminis· trations, their outstanding ca mpus citizenship, and their constantly high standlJds in social life.

It is gratifying to note that every chapter had at least one senior it felt worthy of nomination for the Amy B. Onken award. Sue Mellor of Oregon r was the winner. The others were: Anne Hfflderson of Oregon A Mary Adams of Oregon B, Barbara Stowe of Washington A. Shirley Malander of Washington B, Mary Carolyn Dobbs of Washington r , Pat Miller of Mootana. At Connie Teed Brady of Idaho A, and Lois Badgel<\' of Alberta A.

Lambda Provin ce wa s one-hundred percent in it s co ntributi o ns to the Pi Phi projects. Montana A holds a cont es t for the "King of the Hill " and a benefit dltnce, proceeds going to the Fraternity projec ts Most o f th e chapters help needy people in the ir co mmunities in one way or another. Oregon A members are helping regularly in a Hospital for Spasti c C hildren , oth e rs h2ve Christmas or Eas ter parties , or he lp with campaigns such as the Cancer Drive.

Ru s hing w as extremely s uccess ful in Lambda provInce for most of the chapters Where th e number of rushees was small, the percentage was fav o rable to Pi Phi and the quality of the usual Pi Phi standard . All the chapters in Lambda Province hav e their major ru sh season shortly before or at the very start of th e sc hoo l year with the exce ption of Alberta A which ha s ru shing dt::ferred until late in N o vember .

The housing situation is th e same as it was last year, $('Yen chapters owning their own hom e s, one renting a suitabl e apartment , and one having only a meeting room The re has been considerable redecorat · ing and refurni s hing but no major changes. The girl s in all the chapters are very grateful for the male.rial

Oaid given them by the Alumna: Clubs and the Mothers' Clubs , as well as for their support in every worthwhile project, mcluding rushing especially. Much credit is due to the fine women who have served as housemothers this past year and we regret that several of them find it necessary to leave the chapters. Good chaperones are hard to find and we have been vcry fortunate this yea r

My personal thanks must be added to those o f th e a c rive Pi Phi s (or the essential work of the Advisory Bouds They fo rm a solid foundation for the actives to build upon , much of the continuity of chapter and Frat e rnity traditions d e pending on them. The work o f the Province President is considerably lightened h l' th e c on scie ntiou s effo rt s o f th e lo yal alumnr ho fo rm these boards.

The worle with th e c haplers of Lambda Provin ce has been a joy to me . My bes t wi s hes go to them all that they may continue their progres s toward the goal that will fulfill th eir greatest need s and that they may continue to be chapters of which the Fraternity may be ju stly proud .

MU PROVINCE PR ESIDE N T

UR Mu province started this year with great enthusia s m whi c h resulted from the Chap· ter Presidents ' Workshop held late in August at the California r All presidents and 7 pledge supervisors were in attendance. Every of chapter life was studied and I feel that each girl left the confere nce With high enthusiasm and ambitions to make this her chapter' s best year. The end of the year indicates that much progress in that di r ection has bem made. As is natl1ral , we have had some problems throughout the year but the girls have done fine thinking and have approached uising problems with a sincere desire to reac h effective solutio ns

I was pleased to viSit all eight chapters during the year. My visit to N e vada was postponed sevetlll month s due to the tragic death of its president, Donna Batt My visit to Arizona A and New Mexico A was timed so I could be New M e xico A's guest in their wonder· (ul new house I was very honored to have had a part in their dedication ceremonies , The girls moved into the house the day before their spring ru s hing started but it would be a misstatement to say that the house was completed at that lime , However, it was livable and they were thrilled to be able to offer the hospitaljty of their own home to rushees , to Auests , and to their f r iends o n campus. The house is of adobe ar chi· tecture in keeping with all buildings on the University of New Mexico campus It has 14 bedrooms , a spac ious living room , dining room , chapter room , guest apa.rtment, housemother apartment, a perfectly arranged kitchen and cook 's quarters. I believe the alumnr were as thrilled as the girls were. They have worked vay hud that their dream for the 'tirls might become an accomplished fact. Gifts for the house have been received from alumnr clubs throughout the state as well as from the Albuque r que club Last summer California a ' s house was painted both inside and outside The downstairs was completely redecorated and re-styled The girls wanted the Mclrooms painted also There was only enough money available to buy paint but none for labor. They solved the problem by doing the work themselves. Th e painters who wer e working d o wnstair s showed thml h o w to apply th e paint The result was a truly professional looking job and the g irls .'!;ot a satisfacti o n o ut o f d o in.'!; the worle

thmlselves The exterio r of California n's house was painted during the spring vacation The interior will be redecorated this summer. California Z's living room and SUD room were redecoratrd during the summer They live in a rented house but it is very attra c tive with its new furniture and drapes. With New Mexi co A's new house, all chapters in Mu province, except California E, now maintain houses. We are very for . tunate in our housemothers. Mrs. Perigo at Ca lifornia B, Mrs Thompson at California a , M rs. Atwood at A.rizona A, and Mrs. Barker at New Mexico A have just completed their 6rst year A ll of ou.r housemoth · ers are 6ne, superior women and we are grateful fo r th e ir fine inAuence upon th e girls

Scholarship is our biggest problem. Although tan · gible results have not actually hem achieved in all cases, there has been a distinct improvement in attitude toward scholarship and we are confident that the year's end will s how a decided improvement. We are espe· cially proud of California E who won 6rst place on its campus again for the third time. The scholarship cup is now their permanent possession! New Mexico A won 2nd place on its campus, California r won place, Arizona A maintained its position of )th plac e. California Z was shocked to learn that it had dropped from coveted first place to a position they were not very proud of. California 8 dropped 2 places , California 4, to its chagrin, 6 places , and Nevada was Jowest of the 4 houses on its campus , Mu province had 3 members of Mortar Board and 2 memo bers of its equivaient, Carolyn Schiller and Nancy Ridgeway of California r , Virginia ].

The major rush season for all chapters in Mu provo ince is in the fall. Rushing was successful for all chapters although the rush system at USC was a very trying one. Rushing resulted in 164 new pledges with the distribution as follows : Arizona A '3, California B 30 , Nevada A 20, New Mexico A 19, California Z 18, California 4 1), California E 1', and California r 14 Of these pledges 122 have been initiated. Califomia B did not participate in spring rush but th e other 7 chapters pledged 37 girls, maleinA a total of 201 for the year California II: will be on the

quota system next yar. California r, while still on the quota, will have a greatly improved rush system as a dirtCt result of Miss Onken 's work on the problem while she was in Los Angeles attending the NADW They will now have a Roor as well as a ceiling which should rtsult in a system fair to .11 houses. California B. Ari zona A and Nevada A have free competition in rushing with 00 quota of any kind Our pledges are girls of whom the fnlernity may well be proud. Credit for this achievement must be dirKtcd to a number of fa cto rs : the fine- organizational work of the rush captains and their committ«s; the sincC'fe and enthUSiastic cooperation of the girls in the chapters; the loval , unfailing assista n ce of the advisory boards. the rush advisers in particular; and the fine, constructive work done by ow various recommt:odations cMir""'n.

Founden ' Day was celebrated jointly with alumnI! clubs In ach chapter's ara. Four chapters, California r , 4 , E and Z were tspecially privileged to have as guest speaker our National Historian, Marian Keck Simmons. Her story of the Founders and the early days of our fraternity was truly inspirationa l to all who were privileged to hear her At the Los Ang e les Area Founders' Day celebration, where we had another distinguished guest, ARJtOW Editor Adele Taylor AJford , it was my geat pleasure to presuat the Amy Burnham Onken province award to Carolyn Schiller of Calitornia 1'. The other nominees, all of whom are outs tanding girls, were Peggy Burbank of California d , Roberta MacFarland of California E, Louise Futtere of California Z, V irginia Jenkins Hubbard of Arizona A, and Frances Ourns of N"-' Mexico A.

Pi Beta Phi has been well represented in activities o n ow campURS with girls participating in those of their choice and interest Our highest campus honor has been that of the AWS presidency held by RobC'crta MacFarland of California E.

year in for that honor California r had a homecoming princess and California 6. had the juni or attmdant to the Thue wue " Dream Girls " of fnltcrnities and many memMrs held departmmtal and class honors.

California r and California Wfie esp«ia lly privi· leged this year to have had Miss Onken as a din n er guest while she was in Los Angeles She was a very busy person at the NADW and was greatly in demand by dearu and other Panhcllenic but she found. little time to Sivc to the girls Both chap ters were greatly inspired by her informal talle to them

\X'c of Mu province have worked hard this ytar toward better (raternity education, realizing that underof the fraternity and its procedures does not md with pledge training. Much thought has been given to a meaningful understanding o f the concept "service," including service to each other, service to the fraternity and service to the campus. We have also ,,'o rked on internal efficiency, officer training, careful and thorough pledge training , sponsor responsibility, act ive-pledge relationship, rush p lans, and our perennial problem , scho larship.

We are indebted to our advisory boards for their loyal, devoted work and I am appreciative of their cooperation with me and of the chapter 's coopentlio n with them. I wish to also thank the chapters for their coope ration with me and for all that thqt have done to make my work with them such a pleasant experience. My thanks and gratitude go to the members of Grand Counci l for assistance and support throughout the year, to Miss Onken in particular for her patience and invaluable counse.I, and to our former Grand Secretary Lois Snyder Finger who has been a tremendous help to me It has bttn a real pleasure and a great privj l e,lite to have been able to serve Pi Beta Phi as a province president.

that she ca n stop by the Settlement School and find out wh y they didn't get everything they ordered. I told her she cou ld probably M rs. Snow at ca n· vention And get a ll the answers then Mrs. Caine is most enthusiastic and feels this club is a real chal· lenp;e.

Delta Province rates itself as 100% for 20 clubs we.re 100% in support of the national fratemity projects.

I ndianapolis again sponsored the Civic Theatre production with a profit of $477. White elephant sales furnJShed fun and funds at meetings.

Better :lDd increased membership were the rtsult of hard working committees. Many have expressed the great pleasure enjoyed through the fellowship of the club.

ZETA PROVINCE VICE-PRESIDENT

A 1.L of th e Pi Phi s in the province, whether mem o .L\. bers of clubs or no t, ca n be very proud of th erecord we have made thi s year. We have two new clubs; we have four 100 % membership clubs; we have increased our total membership by 2%; we have incr eased the amount of our co ntributi o ns to o ur s lightly; all clubs are 100 % in co ntributi ons to these projects; and we are se ndin g eleven delegate ) to Conventio:a. Now isn 't that a record ?

Th e two new clubs are in Sanfo rd Florida , and Athens , Georgia They bring our tota l number to and are 100 % in membership The other two 100% clubs are Lakeland, for at least tweh'e years, and Pensacola , for the third year of its existence.

T HAS bee n my plea su re to pay official visits to fourteen of the sixtee n clubs in the province during the past year and it i5 with a great dea l of pride that I report that for the 6fth con.s«utive year all club:. ate "100 %" in their givi ng to the three Pi Phi Project!. Cedar Rapids and Mt. Pleasant gave additional Birthday Gifts to the Settlement School.

The dubs whi ch w ere ab le t o report a gain over last year's paid memberships were, Ames, On Moines, D uluth, Grand Forks, Ind ianola, Mt. Pleasa nt , TriCity, and Winnipeg

Would that every Pi Phi Alumnz dub could have just one member like Mrs . Lillian Roger s of Mt.

IT

have taken out a comp let e sponsorship for a child in Europe , The alumnr clubs i n the province all marvel at this achievement.

Programs have been worked out thoughtfull y with more speakers from outside the membership and the cha llenge has come from several sources that Pi Phis everywhere do more constructive thinking about a.ffairs of state and international peace so let us look to the future as we plan for another year.

At this time I should lik e to make an appeal to P i Phis in commu nit ies where th ere are no organiztd dubs to consider the possibility of organizing one and in so doing be of greater savice to your fraternity and in turn reap the bene6u derived from working together to further the cause of the wine and silver bluc: Only ten members are necessary. Won't you p lea:.t ask your Province Vi ce Preside nt or the Di · recto r of Extension to assist you in starti ng a new dub?

It i s with sincere regret knowing full well just how much I wi ll miss the close co ntacts with the dubs, that I have decided this shoul d be my last year to serve you J believe there are many mOre cap2b le than I am to carry on the work and I can assure my successor she will fa ll heir to sixtee n wonderful clubs.

To Miss Onken, Marianne Wild , and the other · members of Grand Council , the D irector of Central Offi ce, as well as the ational Comitlee Chairmen, may I express my deepest appr eciation and sincere thanles for your inspiration , hel p and patience?

APPA PROVINCE has had a very successfull<U'

Paid membership is 1,429 , an increase 0 44. The 34 clubs range in size from the II of Pau ls VaHey and Okmu lgee, to Houston's 181. Four clubs have paid membership of more than 100, Houston leads with 181, Oklahoma City has DO, Tulsa 1)0, and Dallas 106, an excellent record considering the: comparative size of our cities. There are four clubs 100% in membership, with every Pi Phi living in town a paid member of the cl ub , Osceola, Lake Charles, McAlester and Pauls Valley.

Twenty·six of the thirty.four clubs are 100% in co n tributions, h aving made co n tributions to the Settle· ment Schoo l , Holt House and Emma H arper Turner MemoClal Fund . These lUe the Ardmore, Austin, Baton Rouge , Valley, Corpus Christi, O:l.lIas, Ft. Worth , Houston, Lake Charles, Little Rock , Lubbock. McAlester, Midland , Muskogee, New Orleans, Norman. Oklahoma City, Osceola, Pauls Valley , Ponca City, Sabine District, San Antonio, Shreveport, Still · water. Tulsa and Tyler Clubs.

Nine clubs report gifts to chapters in the amount of $1,780 00 cash, plus other gifts, as well as many hours spent in working for the chapters, either IS of Alumnar: Advisory Committees , for whose faithful work with the chapters we are so grateful or in preparing for rush parties, decorating, chaperon · ing, etc. Contributions to the Save the Children Federation are $146 , 19. The McAlester Club has continued, independently, its donations to the child originally made known to them by the SCF, with a large hex of toys and clothes for all the children of the family al Christmas. Contributions to such worthy local prOJl!cts as T8 Milk Fund, Red Cross, Com· munity Fund. Childrens Welfare, Christmas Joy Fund, Newcomb College Endowment Fund etc. were $1,043.40. Besides these materia l contributions , many hours of volunteer service were given, as Kappa Province Pi Phis are especially active in civic service o f all kinds

Visits were made in October to th e Pauls Vall ey, Ardmore, McAlester. Dallas, Austin , San Autviiio, Corpus Christi, Houston, Lake Charles , Baton Rouge, Shrevepon , Osceola and Ft. Smith Clubs Seeing so many old friends of six years ' standing, as well as

meeting lor the first time the wonderful Pi Phis in the Baton Rouge and Ft. Smith Clubs made the visits, as always, a s timulating and inspi r ing expe r ience for the Province Vice President. and impressed her anew with a deep sense of appreciation for the wonderful women in the clubs: in the province who give so much of meu time and talents to working for the fra· ternity. In spite of the many di.ffi.cuJties involved in arranging club visits lor so early in the fall in our warm chmate, I think that it is desirable to go early if poss ible , Texas A Chapter celebrllted its Golden Anniversary in February, with a very successfu l reunion of many members, climaxed by a beaut i ful dinner. A ll of the charter members are living, and all but one were prf"!lC11t for the reunion Pins of the Order of the Golden Arrow were presented to each of the founders at the dinner. The co mbined State Alumnz Associa · tion·Founders' D,1y at Norman on April 28 brought many alumnr from all over the State, as well as memo bers of both Oklahoma A and Oklahoma B chapters to the Founders' dinner in the beautiful Union Ball Room AJI clubs in the province celebrate Founders' Day in a 6tting way, as this occasion has great sig· nificance for all.

Almost wimout oception, the clubs in the province have heen worlcing very hard to fulfill their duties as hostess clubs: for convention to be held at the Shamrock Hotel , Houston , July 7-13 , As is usual, having this responsibility has strengthened the clubs, and we feel very fortunate in having the opportunity. We hope that our warm Kappa Province welcome will make you all want to come again

As I re tire at the end of my third term as Province Vice President, may I thank all of the wonderful nfficers and members of the thirty·four alummr clubs for their cooperation . without which this record of the achievements of the province would be very differ· ent. They have given so mu c h to making a success of the year that success was assured To Grand Council , may I expre.ss my great appreciation for their g-o.Iidance, and for the example of tireless servi ce which have set for the rest of us?
