Update on Hospitable Housing
Now for the fmal chapter of our Hospitable Housing program [for the Olympics) Although we didn ' t have as many Pi Phi Visitors as originally anticipated (due to news reports of huge traffic jams scalpers' ticket prices terrorists . boycotts . earthquakes. airline ticket prices . etc .). Hospitable Housing was able to accomplish its original goal of providing gracious lowcost Bed and Brealcfast accommodations for those Pi Phis who requested them. Southern California Pi Phis have proven that the' 'ties that bind" do continue after graduation
On a more personal basis, my family had the pleasure of hosting a most delightful 3-generation family (2 generations of Pi Phis) during the Olympics That week confirmed my original contention that if Pi Phis could meet and share common experiences during a brief period of time, new lifc:long friends could be made ; as well as strengthening the part that Pi Beta Phi plays in our lives
Although there were 6 additional people in our home during that week. it was never anything but a pleasure. We all had so much in common (including husbands and kids) and yet coming from different parts of the country we had so much to share As far as I was concerned the time went much too quickly I noticed in the Spring ARRow the article on the Bcd and Brealcfast project in Florida I wish them the best and hope their experiences are as positive as ours were.
Thanks so much for your encouragement and support It meant a lot!

I am writing to let you know how successful the Hospitable Housing Project for the LA Olympics was
The six m embers of my family. including my parents Ray andJanet McNeill Bywater (Iowa Zeta). stayed with the coordinator of the project Carolyn and David Engel. They were very gracious and hc:lpful and eager to make our visit smooth and rewarding. Carolyn prepared brealcfasts of fresh fruit and special items like quiche or bran muffins every morning Dave was always available with answers and directions A highlight was the appearance of an official at 7 a.m A neighbor who was in charge of escorting dignitaries for medal presentations stopped by to meet us We were thrilled
We recommend that Pi Phi continue this rype: of offering for members if the opportunity comes up again. Carolyn and I found we had many similar thoughts. ideas. and commitments-things I fc:lt probably rdated to our Pi Phi connection
Thank you for publicizing this opportunity through The ARRow.

A Diamond Arrow remembers
In the Summer 1984 ARRow. I have found my name among those alumnae honored for 75 years membership I have received the beautifully framed plaque and am ddighted to have it from the Fraternity which contributed so much ambition and happiness to my college experience I was pleased to find the names of Margaret French and Mary C. Reynolds Swift-both friends in Vermont Alpha
The arrival of The ARRow with its record of the many types of activity engaged in by the girls always takes me back to my college days I must admit
that we never approached the accomplishment of the modern Pi Phi girl. but opportunities for distinction were fewer and mostly academic.
As I am almost 94, I have seen the Fraternity work for ever finer projects I send a greeting to all the devoted women who labor in the many-branched service of Pi Beta Phi.

Happy Anniversary I
Here's something for your ARRow of Pi Beta Phi.
Maxine Cooley Montgomery , Colorado Alpha '31 (Univ of Colorado) and myself just cc:lebrated our 50th wedding anniversary-6/9/84 . We had our 12 grandchildren. 4 kids and their spouses at a local Ramada Inn We all had a SUPER TIME
She doesn ' t know I'm writing you. but I'm sure some of her old Pi Phis would like to know the news

Is this a record?
When The ARROW Summer edition arrived. it was interesting and a pleasure to read , as always Having been in TV for many years (the past nine as Community Affairs DirectoratKOTV. Tulsa ' s CBS affiliate) I was particularly captivated by stories about the many Pi Phis who are involved or seek TV as a career
At the time, Annette Solomon Oklahoma Beta, was serving as an intern in creative services and community affairs at KOTV We wondered whether or not KOTV might not hold a record if not for the most on staff for its size, at least fo r the m ost passing through its portals
KOTV's News Department benefits from the talents of Pi PhisJilda Unruh (Vanderbilt) special reporter and weekend anchor ; and Jean Tiernan (Oklahoma Alpha). reporter Two other Oklahoma BetaS have been a part of the KOTV staff in recent years- Sheree Maupin Zizzi andJanJenkins Nicholl now of San Diego and Dallas , respectivc:ly (Yes.Jan is my daughter.) TV certainly recognizes Pi Phi talent and as encouragement to those who aspire to a career in tc:levision. it might be interesting to hear from those who are now in the broadcast medium

Cover girl responds
Can an Alberta Alpha ' 48 find happiness as a cover girl? Indeed yes! What a wonderful lot of dear friends have written me since the summer ARROW appeared While I once made the back cover of a trail riding publication, this was a " first" and I will treasure the copy always Thank you for such an unexpected honour!
Incidently. one of the Pi Phis who wrote was Cynthia Lingo Villani whom I met when she was working at the Royal Chitwin Park in Nepal She said she recognized my hat immediatc:ly even though I was on a horse rather than an dephant !

As an editor, we are always delighted when we receive beautiful color photos and slides that are suitable for The ARROW's cover. And when the colors in the pictures match the colors of the season, that's even better. Such was the case with the cover for our last issue-Fall, 1984 . That lovely shot of Holt House, with the one tree fully decked out in fall colors, came to us from the Holt House committee. Now we find out that the picture, and the two on the inside, were taken by professional photographer Steven Shoemaker of Monmouth, and we are happy to give him credit for his skill. An added plus is the fact that Steven is the son of Jacqueline McGinnes Shoemaker , Illinois Alpha, whose home is also in Monmouth. So, it was sorta all in 'the family, and that's even nicer.
While we're on the subject of cover pictures, we hope you're particularly thrilled with the cover of this issue. Sometimes it's very difficult to get pictures you desperately want, and you have to enlist the aid of as many friends as possible. Such was ttue this time and we are particularly grateful to Ruth Killam, Nancy Kemp, Liz Holman, Jeannie Hillis, and any number of others who helped track down pictures and information for us. Thanks, ladies!
Kathy Ebert, Illinois Epsilon, was certainly in the news a lot last summer. Her photo appeared July 4 on the front page of the New York Times and in countless other papers across the nation She was on CBS Evening News, and in the July 16 issue of TIME Magazine.
Kathy was one of three women to testify before a state hearing examiner in 1979 when the Minneapolis and St. Paul Jaycees first filed suit against the national organization, claiming that the by-laws which excluded women from joining were discriminatory
The case worked its way up through the court system until finally, inJuly, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled that women must be allowed to join
After the decision, the Minneapolis Jaycees held a press conference at which Kathy spoke , and her comments and photo were picked up by the Associated Press and distributed nationally
Kathy, her husband Tim Hilger, and their three-year-old daughter Carrie, live in St Louis Park, Minn. Kathy is a former vice president of the Minneapolis Jaycees.
One of Pi Phi's noted, acclaimed artists is Evalyn Prouty Hickman, Colorado Alpha, of Fort Collins, Colorado . Last summer Evalyn had an exhibition of more than 130 works in the Student Center Gallery at Colorado State , where she is a professor on the art faculty . The huge exhibition , "Southwest Images Revisited," featured the work for which
Evalyn has become noted-on handmade paper, etched glass, porcelain and sand painting
Evalyn said that the show was "a dream come true . . . it's my life to this point. "
Not only was the amount of work in the exhibit almost beyond belief, but during last year Evalyn also created 1,000 small images on handmade paper for those attending the national convention of Kappa Kappa Gamma lastJune.
We are the proud owner of two lovely pieces of Evalyn's work, so we can just imagine the impact of the exhibit, as well as the impact on our Kappa friends.
Spec ial honors should go to Cindy Bannasch, Michigan Gamma, a senior at Michigan State. Cindy spent last summer as a senior counselor in a camp for physically and mentally impaired children and adults. Some of the camp residents and counselors, including Cindy, were leaving the pool area when one noticed a body at the bottom. Cindy pulled the 200 pound youth from the pool, lifted him over her head to safety, and administered cardio- pulmonary resuscitation for ten minutes, saving his life.
The young man had suffered a seizure and fallen , fully clothed , into the water .
Cind y has certainly earned "hero" designation!
By the time you receive this issue of The ARROW, Pi Phi will have added one new chapter to the roll and will be counting down to the installation of another. Welcome, New York Epsilon, at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute in Troy, N Y , installed the weekend of November 16 Welcome, also, to the recolonize'<I-Horida Delta chapter, scheduled to be installed soon after the first of the year
Congratulations to Julia 1. Quackenbush, Ohio Zeta, of Roanoke , Va., who was included in the latest selection of Outstanding Young Women in America for her community accompl is hments . Julie serves on the Virginia Zeta Alumnae Advisory Committee
Interested in some statistics? Grand President Jean Scott notes that, as of June 30, 1984, Pi Beta Phi has recorded 140,084 initiates Of that number, 86.4% are still living and in good standing. Wouldn't it be marvelous if all alumnae in that 86.4% continued to support the Fraternity through t heir contributions to the Friendship Fund?
We read this some place : If something goes wrong, it is more important to talk about who is going to fix it than who is to blame .
Happy Holidays . marilynsford

The hotel was built on the longtime landmark "Signboard Hill " which was reshaped into an attractive limestone bluff whose rugged beauty has been incorporated in the hotel's decor-both inside and out. The most striking of the hotel's many features is at the rear of the lobby-an interior tropical garden carved from the original limestone bluff.
The Crown Center Complex, developed entirely by Hallmark Cards, Inc .

New Fraternity award honors Annette Mills
It was a complete surprise! Actually two surprises . When Annette Mitchell Mills opened the door into the private luncheon room at The Club in Birmingham ,AL , she tried to back out inconspicuously-she was sure she was in the wrong room-everyone was standing and clapping. Annette was looking for the room where Zoe Saunders James was giving a luncheon for Mary Reed Wipfler of Pompano Beach, FL
But Meta Anderson Mitchell wouldn't let Annette back out and Zoe led her to her seat at the head table explaining that the luncheon was really a Birmingham Alumnae Club affair in her honor.
While Annette recovered from this surprise, Zoe recounted for all the many ways Annette had served Pi Phi over the years. Since college days she had been the backbone of the alum club , serving in every office and on every committee-more than once Alabama Alpha and Alabama Beta had both benefited from her years on their AACs and house corporations. The Birmingham Alumnae Club was proud when she became province president and six years later was named Director of Alumnae Advisory Committees During her brief tenure in this position she rewrote the AAC Manual, exhibiting to all Pi Phis what the club had known all along-that she was very knowledgeable and well organized. Then came the appointment to fill the unexpired term of Grand Secretary. Annette was subsequently elected to this office twice and then elected to serve as National Panhellenic Conference Delegate
During her tenure as NPC Delegate, Annette represented Pi Phi well in that august body and also had charge of Pi Phi's extension program, organizing the colonization and installa-

by LEsLIE COSTIN
Pi Phis from Florida State gathered together much earlier than all other sororities on campus to prepare for their big trip to arch rival school, the University of Florida. Why make a special trip there? Because Florida Betas were going to help start a new chapter of the U niversity of Florida . They were overflowing with excitement about having, soon after rush, a whole new set of sisters only a short trip away.
During the few ·days before the chapter made the road trip, they had many hours of preparation to do This year a number of new ideas for rush were to be used and the girls had to learn many new and different things. It wasn't all work, however They had a great time talking about their summer vacations, enjoying delicious snacks prepared for them, and, of course, practicing.
The week of practice and finally rush in Gainesville was yet another special time for the Pi Phis All the hard work paid off as they greeted ple d ges at the University of Florida as well as their own at Florida State.

Fl o rida Delta recolonized
by LEsLIE COSKlN
Pi Phis from Florida State University left Tallahassee early on a Sunday morning in August, 1984 , to drive to Gainesville to join the University of Florida Greeks in formal fall rush. The Panhellenic invitation to reestablish Florida Delta chapter of Pi Beta Phi had been accepted by Grand Council following an affirmative vote of province clubs and chapters.
Florida Betas drove to their rival school in a caravan of wine and blue decorated cars. Home for the week was the Rush Lake Motel-what an appropriate name! Mter being warmly welcomed by University of Florida Greeks , Pi Phis made it known that they were determined to have the best pledge class. With the help of attending Fraternity officers, how could they fail? The national rush team included Grand PresidentJean Wirths Scott, Grand Secretary Carolyn Helman Lichtenberg, National Panhellenic Conference Delegate Annette Mitchell Mills, and Zeta Province President Jan Ruffin Hatchett. What a fantastic group of Pi Phis! Florida Betas would never have made it without them. They kept everyone fed and continually offered moral suppon. They even had a special Cooky-Shine for us . At the end of each day special rewards and gifts were given to boost spirits.
The facilities from which they rushed were not much It was amazing how the room was transformed for each round so that instead of an old dreary classroom it set the theme for each party. It was unbelievable how much work everyone did t o prepare for the twelve hundred plus rushees
Mter the week of strenuous activities , Florida Betas were very tired, but happy with the quota pledge class of 47 super women All of the input really paid off The week was special to all because of the love and concern of Pi Beta Phi ' s national officers Florida Betas looked back on the week and realized it was an experience they would cenainly never forget . They all felt that the University of Florida would never forget them either
Florida Betas returned to Tallahassee to conduc t the ir own rush at F S.U which in another quota pledge class of outstanding women.
Formal pledging ceremony for Florida Delta chaner pledges was conducted by the national rush team, assisted by Florida Alpha chapter members from Stetson , Zeta Nonh Alumnae Province President Betty Butler Holdcroft , and Gainesville alumnae New pledges were welcomed at a dinner , following the ceremony

Pi Beta Phi at R.P .1.
by CHRISTA LANDGRAF, RGC
Founded in 1824, Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute is a privately endowed, nonsectarian institution . The oldest engineering and technical instirution in the country and the first college to introduce the laboratory method of learning sciences , the institute offers programs in engineering science , architecture, management, humanities, and social sciences The campus is located on a plateau overlooking the Hudson River in Troy, New York.
Members of the local sorority Kappa Phi at R P 1. became duly pledged members of Pi Beta Phi on September 4 , 1984. This was a special and long awaited day for the chaner pledges. Upon Kappa Phi's founding in 1982, eleven members wrote to Pi Phi about national affiliation. The interest emerged from the fact that one member has a Pi Phi sister at the University of Vermont . At that time Pi Phi was fully committed to extension projects and could not consider their request. This did not deter the women from continuing to seek affiliation They participated as members of the Greek system composed of twentyeight groups for men, and three groups for women . Kappa Phi established a membership of fifty women in only two years and continued their quest for national affiliation in the spring of 1984. After a series of presentations and considerations on the pan of both Kappa Phi and Pi Phi, and with a favorable vote of Alpha Province clubs and chapters , Grand Council accepted the petition of Kappa Phi .
The pledging ceremony took place at the home of Margaret Babcock Davis , D C. Alpha , in Brunswick Hills , N Y The ceremony was conducted by MaralouJuday Crane , Director of Extension , assisted b y Annette Mitchell Mills , N P C.

CCODuke swimming coach ()
Robert Thompson invited
the freshman, Nancy Hogshead, into his office for a preseason summit meeting of sorts.
Here was an 18-year-old who had, essentially, reached the denouement of her career. Her resume was complete. At 12, she appeared in the U.S Nationals, making her the second youngest ever to do so; at 14 , she had an American record in the 100-meter butterfly; at 15 and 16, she was ranked #1 in the world in 200-meter butterfly
Finally, at 18, Nancy made the 1980 Olympic team in two events. She had to stay home because of the western-bloc boycott, but was close enough to the pinnacle. Too close, anyway, to go through it all again.
The only words Thompson had for her, "You are going to be on the 1984 Olympic Team "
Hogshead laughed. "You've got to be kidding There's no way . "
Still, Nancy worked hard for Thompson She was an AllAmerican in two events her freshman season, set 11 school records that still stand and two conference records.
Soon after, tired and burned out, Nancy quit swimming, supposedly for good For close to a year and a half, she didn't swim another race. "I had to get away from swimming to look back on it and see what went wrong. I had good insight. I was so wrapped up in it that I couldn't look at it objectively. It was such an emotional thing."
From swimming often for Duke and occasionally in international meets, Nancy now did not think about swimmingat all.
Somewhere along the line , of course her thoughts changed The three gold medals and one silver the North Carolina Beta Pi Phi won in Los Angeles fell one short of the Olympic record for most swimming medals by one woman. These rewards have made up for the travail of intervening years, in which Hogshead quit the sport for 16 months, came back to train hard, lived away from home for 18 months, survived a change in coaches, a change in events, and sought help from a sports psychologist.
Begins Olympic training
On New Years Day, 1983 , Nancy Hogshead began 18 months of training for the 1984 Olympic Games. Swimming again had become the focal point of her existance in her decision to leave Duke to train with Randy Reese, her former coach, at the University of Florida
However in September of that year, Nancy decided she wasn't getting the kind of attention she needed with Reese. After some searching, she found Mitch Ivey, coach at the Concord-Pleasant Hills program outside San Francisco She and a good friend, Duke graduate Mandy Calder, drove to California.
With Ivey, Nancy found just what she wanted . His ftrst idea was to change her events . Looking at the makeup of the probable 1984 U.S . Team , it seemed Nancy would have a better chance in the sprints , namely the 100-meter freestyle . Hogshead described a typical training day with Ivey:
"Wake up in the morning , eat a lot. Work out for 21f2 hours, come home and eat some more Sleep, get up, light snack. Then there'd be an afternoon workout for 3 112 -4 hours. Went home, ate, and went to bed."
For ten months!!!
"I was so tired every evening after practice," Nancy said, "I couldn't even go see a movie.
"He was so very intense. Everything we did was all business. He was very positive: 'you're doing good, Nancy, Put your legs into this.' He was tireless. He worked as hard as I did "
The stress became great about three months before the Olympics were to begin, with trials looming inJune. To cope with the strain, and to help with relaxation and concentration, Nan.::y solicited the services of Dr. Thomas Tutko, sports psychologist, just following the Nationals.
"I knew I had to do something," she said, "because I was getting real nervous before meets. I knew I was swimming fast but I could have gone faster if I hadn't been so nervous."
Nancy's work with Dr. Tutko and Reese paid off when she successfully qualified for four events on the 1984 U S. Olympic swim team
But imagine the feelings Nancy had onJuly 29, 1984, standing over her lane before the 100-meter freestyle of the Olympic Games. Twenty-two years, about to be compressed into one minute.
Emotional Moment
Nancy didn't know that she would beon her way to Olympic stardom by capturing not only this medal, but fo u r-three gold and one silver.
"Receiving my gold medal on the victory stand was the most exciting moment of my life It meant so much just to be there. It was a day and a moment I had thought about every day for years All the work since coming back from retirement was worthwhile. The crowd was so supportive and I was proud to be a part of the U.S. Team. Then I really choked up when the band played The Star Spangled Banner and they raised the American flag. It sounds trite but it was vety real.
"The medal itself is about three inches in diameter and very heavy . I think it is silver with a gold covering. The ribbon colors are the same used around all the Olympic themes . .. shades of green, gold, orange, pink, and blue. The engraving on the medal is very heavy.
"I have had lots of questions about my plans for the future Let me say that there are so many things I have missedparties, football games, friends , but especially my Pi Phi sisters who have supported me through the past 18 months with their cards, letters, flowers, and prayers," said Nancy . "Honestly I am looking forward to my retirement now that I have fulftlled my swimming goals. I will be able to spend my last semesters at Duke enjoying a normal college life . "
Nancy thrilled the entired Duke University campus with her incredible feats . The Olympic spirit followed her back to Duke this fall. Upon her return , she was greeted by a congratulatory banner made by the 1984 Pi Beta Phi pledge class Nancy, in return , thrilled the entire chapter by bringing one of her three gold medals to the ftrst chapter meeting The North Carolina Beta Pi Phis are certainly proud of their golden Olympic sister!

Q§5e§)
Williams , star of those earlier water ballet movies, it's easy to see where Tracie Ruiz , Arizona Alpha, has received her inspiration. It's called synchronized swimming now, and it made its debut in the 1984 Los Angeles Games. It has been a pan of the world championships since 1973. However, the International Olympic Committee didn't decide to sanction it as an Olympic event till 1980 . Tracie is the reigning world champ, unbeaten in solo competition in the last five years
Tracie has been called "the most complete synchronized swimmer in the world." Other raves included "no one can dispute, she's the finest synchronized swimmer in the world today . " She proved her advance notices by winning two gold medals-one in solo , and, with her partner Candy Costie, one in duet.
In the solo competition, a performer displays synchronization with music. Emphasis is on difficulty of moves, creativity, originality , and interpretation of the music. Tracie's rou tine earned 198.467 points, almost three points higher than the silver medalist Scoring is done by a panel of judges who judge compulsory figures , accounting for 50 % of the total score , and routines performed to music .
In the duet , two swimmers perform mirror-like images in the water , staying synchronized with each other as well as with the music. Tracie and Candy were the unquestionable favorites in this competition They lived up to their reputation by winning the first Olympic medal awarded in the category .
The capacity crowd at the Olympic swim stadium responded to the intricate routines with noisy enthusiasm. The duo were unquestionable favorites-Tracie' s fluidity complemented by Candy's flamboyance Almost as soon as they submerged in the pool the crowd responded.
With a dash of patriotic music, the young women earned a 99 0 score from the ten judges in the routine competition In compulsory competition, they received 96 584, for a combined score of 195 584
Tracie and Candy are both former performers at the University of Arizona in Tucson. The girls have been performing as partners for the past ten years. They left the University after completing one year to train for the 1984 Olympics. Their workouts consisted of six to eight long , hard hours of swimming, running, weight-lifting, and practice every day
Tracie pledged Pi Phi in the fall of 1981, and was initiated in February, 1982. Her home is in Bothell , Washington

Betty was impressed with the diverse interests and experience levels of her fellow students at Arrowmont. She found that each brought something different to Arrowmont and that sharing ideas and working together made a fulfilling experience. She says she's sure to come back
Lucinda Trabue of Nashville, TN , a Tennessee Beta from Vanderbilt, attended Arrowmont for the third time as a recipient of a scholarship from the S;lub. Lucinda spoke highly of the Nashville alums to Arrowmont . This year they gave the largest contribution to Arrowmont ($18,000) of any alumnae club They usually award three scholarships a year for studies at Arrowmont.
A few years ago, Lucinda took an evening course in stained glass which precipitated her coming to Arrowmont. She has studied stained glass, Japanese papermaking, and watercolor painting through her summer classes. She teachers at Arrowmont influential ; " ... they held nothing back. It was a time of teaching, sharing, a week of explori?g myself.".
Lucinda said she would like to stress the Idea that a PI PhI needn't be an artist or even have an artistic background to enjoy a summer class at Arrowmont As a newly elected member to the Board of Governors , Lucinda would like to come up with publicity / action plans to communicate with Pi Phis about what Arrowmont is in 1984

An experience last fall illustrates the need Pi Phi still meets in the Gatlinburg community. A local craftsman , who sells a lot of his work to the Arrowcraft Shop , talked to us in November about buying things from him through the winter instead of waiting until the spring He had produced a large order which was cancelled just before delivery . He had a finished inventory of goods , raw materials to pay for , and wages for himself and two helpers-all dependent on this one order.
We went to his studio and looked at the items he had and also new styles we could buy, since we couldn't use all the things from the cancelled order We agreed to purchase some of the finished goods and contracted to have him make us new things and to pay for them monthly during the winter This arrangement gave him money to pay his bills, take care of his family , and keep his two helpers employed
He expressed his gratitude to Arrowcraft and the Fraternity when he said, .• If it weren't for the Pi Phis, I couldn't have made it through the winter."
Prior to 1980 classes at Arrowmont were held mainly during the summer. Many inquiries were received expressing an interest in having classes scheduled at other times of the year . Arrowmont now offers classes during March. These one week classes are similar to those offered during the summer with fiber, fabric, metal, clay, wood, and stained glass being taught . Students with little or no background as well as those who have developed to a professionallevel are welcomed For university enrolled students, the one week sessions usually fall within spring break , thus allowing the opportunity for additional credit , an experience in a new medium, or a change from a routine academic involvement . Could your chapter or alum club give a scholarship to someone interested in attending? In many cases scholarships need only be partial an amount to cover tuition or part room I board . Contact Arrowmont for further information
Artists at all levels of development and from different parts of the United States and Canada are able to attend classes at Arrowmont due to scholarships offered by alumnae clubs and other interested parties . One such person was Robert Carroll of Wichita, Kansas. He was granted a scholarship through the Wichita Alumnae Club
As an employee of the Wichita city school system where he trains elementary school teachers in art instruction , his continued contact with the visual arts and growth in various fields is most beneficial to his work . During the summer he took a watercolor painting class taught by Marcia Goldenstein.
Robert found facilities at Arrowmont to be exceptional and the natural beauty of its scenic location in the Smoky Mountains to be inspirational He stated that intangible elements, such as the fellowship and camaraderie that develop , made the experience of taking a class at Arrowmont a unique and rewarding one . The first recipient of a one week Arrowmont scholarship , offered by the Canadian Philanthropic Comm i tteeAlberta Club , was Laurelle Lawson , a Pi Phi i n her third year at the University of Alberta. The scholarship covered travel expenses , tu i tion , and room and board
for one week and enabled Laurelle to participate in a two week woven wearables workshop taught by Sharon Lumsden. The workshop was a productive one for Laurelle. As a beginning student in weaving she learned the basic techniqes and constructed four different articles of clothing, as well as additional cloth which she swapped for a ceramics piece made by a pottery student. Laurelle also took home knowledge in many different media, acquired as she observed other classes in progress She was impressed by the varied backgrounds of students and that people came from allover the country to attend classes at Arrowmont .
Laurelle made many new friendships at Arrowmont and she plans to keep in touch with several of her fellow students to exchange ideas and report on progress. She considered her scholarship to be an awareness experience, expressing a desire to share her feelings about Arrowmont with other Alberta Pi Phis. She hopes to encourage others to see this philanthropic project in person to help realize the benefit provided to many through Arrowmont School.
Laurelle plans to continue with her newly acquired weaving skills by obtaining her own loom and to continue her pursuit of a career in clothing and textile merchandising

Painting student Robert Carroll experiments with the techniques of watercolor. Carroll received his scholarship through the Wichita Alumnae Club.
During the eleven weeks of mixed media classes offered at Arrowmont last summer, several Pi Phi alumnae were among the students panicipating in classes
Michelle Feulner, Tennessee Gamma alumna, was at Arrowmont for six weeks on an assistantship. As an assistant Michelle had various duties, from making signs, installing exhibitions, studio assistance , and locking up buildings at night, to helping with transponation of students to / from the airpon. She was involved in four weeks of classes in graphic am, figure drawing, and mixed media on cloth . The opponunity to take classes at Arrowmont allowed Michelle to explore ideas and expand technical knowledge with her an work and to move into different media and directions with new an pieces.
Michelle lives in Lafayette, Ind ., where she is an anist in printmaking , drawing , and painting She describes her an work as dealing with' 'entrapment by political and social devices ." Figures are used to evoke a reaction from the viewer by drawing them into the perspective of the figures in each piece
Another Pi Phi alumna at Arrowmont was Ann Struble Norris, a member of the Charlotte (NC) Alumnae Club and an Iowa State Pi Phi. Ann panicipated in a two week class in wax resist dyeing taught
by
Ed Lambert. Ann has been to Arrowmont during five previous years for classes and attributes her present success and direction in an to these classes. Her current work involves designing and producing jackets using silk dyeing, quilting, and applique techniques with emphasis on three dimensional aspects This is accomplished through embellishment by crocheting, macrame , and manipulation of the cloth.
Ann feels that Arrowmont is on the , 'leading edge of the ans and crafts movement" and that she receives inspiration and motivation each time she comes. The atmosphere and interaction with other people in the visual arts are positive elements that draw people like Ann back to Arrowmont .
Karen Lewis, aPiPhiatU . C.L.A. and now a member of the Westchester County (N.Y.) Alumnae Club, was at Arrowmont during the summer sessions for a sgraffito ceramic course. This was Karen's first time at Arrowmont and she found it to be a "wonderful experience " A painter and printmaker , Karen has taught high school an for eleven years. Technical knowledge acquired at Arrowmont will be used to assist her in teaching
Pan of Karen 's tuition and costs were paid through a scholarship offered by her alumnae club. Most recipients are local
New York anists who are grante d the scholarships with the intention that they will return to the community to use and share knowledge gained through Arrowmont. Karen feels it is very important that more Pi Phis apply for scholarships or attend classes at their own expense in order to experience actual daily activities at Arrowmont and to appreciate the value and wide-reaching effects of this philanthropy

Jane Bryant Quinn earns respect as noted financial commentator
The letterhead is from Newsweek magazine, but it would be a fallacy to think that her contributing editorship of that magazine were her only activity For Jane Bryant Quinn, Vermont Alpha, her Newsweek activities are only the beginning of a long list of positions and achievements.
The name is familiar to thousands of readers of Woman's Day because of Jane's informative "Money Facts" page in each issue. For four years, untilJuly of this year, she contributed at least two spots per week to CBS Morning News, and in July, moved from the morning news to CBS Evening News. She's the author of Everyone's Money Book, published in 1979, with a second edition in 1980.
Jane Bryant Quinn is ajournalist in the best sense of the word. And she is busyprobably the country's busiest freelance financial commentator. She is constantly on the go, moving from her various offices and studios in New York, to making frequent trips to Washington, D. c., to fulfilling speaking engagements around the country. Add the responsibilities of a family, and you have a woman with very little time for socializing, a fact that only slightly disgruntles her attorney husband, David
Middlebury Graduate
Jane was graduated from Middlebury College in Vermont, Magna Cum Laude, in 1960 , and has been in journalism ever since. She started out in Newsweek's mail department, switched to Look magazine after six months, where she evenrually became co-editor of "The Insider's Newsletter. ., It was during that time that Jane gravitated toward consumer finance pieces.
"There were opportunities for women," notes J ane. "They were just in an area that no one else wanted."
McGraw-Hill was the next rung up the ladder, in 1968. There she founded the "Business Week Letter," but the company 's wariness about female editors made them list Jane as]. B Quinn She went along with this on the condition that all other newsletter staffers sign off with their initials.
In 1974Jane struck out on herown as a freelance writer. Her first client was the
Washington Post, followed quickly by Woman's Day, Newsweek, and her television career as a finance repotter.
When her busy professional day is over, Jane rerurns to the home she and David built in the woods in New York's Westchester County Most evenings they eat an early dinner before they get into pajamas and robes and head for the master bedroom to read-Jane's preferred form of relaxation. Still at home is son Justin. Another son, Matthew, was graduated from Oberlin College last year. Matthew is the product of Jane's first marriage.
David also has children by a previous marriage: Martha, a disc jockey on MTV; Christopher , a pilot; and David, a lawyer
Jane's life is exciting , stimulating, and happy. Her sixteen year marriage to David is fulfilling He, in turn, enthusiastically suppotts Jane in her many activities and performs half the parental chores for Justin On weekends Jane cooks and David does the dishes
It's a time of great personal high for Jane Bryant Quinn, noteable Pi Phi .
New boutique idea draws customers
by JOANNA GALE
Kelly Evenson, North Dakota Alpha, is the successful owner of one of the newest and most talked about shops in Grand Forks, ND Her shop, called the Funk Chic Boutique, is a fresh new idea for the Grand Forks community. Featuring vintage clothing, furs, jewelry, linens, glassware, and accessories, Evenson's shop primarily draws college students. Evenson says that vintage clothing gives a new-wave effect and that ' s what college students are wearing. Mixing old and new styles of clothing produces a unique and eyecatching combination that is rapidly gaining popularity.
Last September Kelly took her clothes to the public with a fashion show entitled , 'Passing Fashions , ,. sponsored by a local radio station. She , along with Pi Phis Kim Boushey andJoanna Gale , modeled the latest in classic designs . Outfits ranged from a beaded flapper dress to a raccoon fur for women and wool coats and double-breasted suits for men.
The beginning of the show was greeted by a mixture of hesitancy and curiosity from onlookers but as the show progressed, the audience gained much enthusiasm. It was a fun , successful evening

Report from a Pi Phi sister f/no'Cflxltl.
Karen Carpenter was on the road to recovery when she suffered a fatal heart attack at age 32 The untimely death of this beloved singer brought to national attention the fact that anorexia nervosa and bulimia are indeed life-threatening illnesses which have reached epidemic proportions and affect every facet of our society. Eating disorders can cause serious life long physical and psychological problems in the self starver and in those of normal weight who compulsively binge and purge. An estimated six percent die.
Growing up in a society where "thin is in" and success is measured by the size of one's jeans is a struggle for teenagers and young women today The college woman is faced with added pressures as she confronts the new challenges of living away from home for the first time, being responsible for setting her own limits, striving to excel both socially and academically, planning her career, dealing with her sexuality, and facing periods of fear, isolation, and loneliness.
Family, school, and peer pressures coupled with the mass media's portrayal of the desirable, happy, successful woman as thin often leads a young woman to the conclusion that if she loses "just a few pounds" she, too, will be desirable , happy , and successful. Sometimes, when losing a few pounds does not lead to instant contentment, she tries losing a few more, and a few more The diet is out of control and the dieter becomes anorexic. The anorexic typically develops an exaggerated interest in food, yet at the same time, denies hunger and refuses to eat. She develops a distorted body image and perceives herself as fat even as the weight loss continues to lifethreatening levels Sleep problems may develop, and frequently anorexics undertake an unrelenting, strenuous exercise program. She may show unusual devotion to school work Menstrual periods may cease due to insufficient hormone production brought on by reduced body fat.
Bulimia is characterized by binge eating followed by selfinduced vomiting or laxative abuse It is estimated that 25 to 30 percent of all college age women have experienced this dangerous binge / purge syndrome. Many bulimics feel controlled by this compulsive cycle which begins with anxiety:
On the surface, the desire to be thin may appear to be the cause of eating disorders. But FOOD IS NOT THE ISSUE! At issue are underlying fears, doubts and insecurities which the anorexic/bulimic must face if she is to overcome these devastating illnesses Eating disorders tend to strike women who are perfectionists, high achievers, sensitive and self-conscious, and may have low self-esteem . Often they feel they have no control over their lives , so they attempt to gain power by controlling their bodies and eating habits . Because the true underlying feelings are not being confronted , eating disorders lead to depression, withdrawal, feelings of guilt, and a sense of hope -

COMPULSIVE EATING DISORDER CYCLE
lessness. Most anorexics/bulimics are young women between the ages of 12 and 25, but a distressing increase is evident in children b etween the ages of eight and eleven as well as older women Male cases are being reported with increasing frequency
Along with the serious psychological scars which can be brought on by eating disorders, a number of physical problems may also appear. These problems include skin dryness, edema, bloating and abdominal pain from laxative abuse , problems with teeth and cavities, salivary gland infection, and amenhorrhea (loss of menstrual period).
There is hope! With proper medical and psychological care, the anorexic/bulimic can overcome her eating disorder and become a healthy, productive member of her community And there is ANAD-The National Association of Anorexia Nervosa and Associated Disorders.
Personal Experience
I came to ANAD with the hope of making a difference in the lives of people with eating disorders . I truly do understand these illnesses as I began recovering from bulimia three years ago. Be ing a perfectionist who is very sensitive and bright, I needed a way to control my life even more. I was not overweight and not thin, but an average weight. This was not good enough I began dieting at age 13 with my sister. I thought I had found a way to have my cake and eat it too. I thought I was in " control , " but the bulimia began controlling me I was trapped in the vicious cycle of bingeing/purgiog/feeliog guilty / and dieting only to escape my fears through biogeing
Vivian Meehan , left , pre.ldent of the Nat lana l Alloclatlon of Anore xi a Nervo.a and Alloclated Ol.o rder. , and Heathe r Howa rd , Mich igan Delta , a recove red bulim ic , who I ANAO adm ln l.trator
again I knew I needed help, but I had no idea that other people had the problem I became more tired, regimented , and guilty. My complexion was no longer good, my hair lost its luster, and I never had a normal menstrual cycle. It became harder and harder to hide my binges as they became larger and longer.
My recovery began when I told my parents that I needed help . Since my father is a recovering alcoholic, I knew they would have to understand this illness too I began to see a therapist in conjunction with a suppon group . My family went to therapy too at times. I wanted to recover. I had too much to give this life, and I could not do it with a cloud of an eating disorder over my head
Help is available
ANAD is the first national non-profit educational and selfhelp organization in Nonh America dedicated to alleviating the problems of anorexia nervosa and bulimia. Through ANAD ' s efforts , millions of people have been made aware of the dangers and warning signs of anorexia nervosa and bulimia. Each year thousands of anorexics, bulimics and family members turn to ANAD for counsel , assistance , and information . ANAD maintains a referral list of therapists and medical professionals nationwide experienced in treating eating disorders. Self-help suppon groups have been established in over 40 states and Canada where anorexics, bulimics and their families can meet and share with others suffering from these devastating syndromes. ANAD provides information , early detection , and educational programs to schools , universities , health and civic organizations from coast to coast All ANAD services are free of charge.
ANAD was founded in 1976 by Vivian Meehan , President , with the dream of assisting sufferers and preventing eating disorders . I had the rewarding experience of being an intern at ANAD the summer of 1982 when I was a junior at Albion College , a Michigan Delta sister I learned a great deal about the destructive effects of anorexia/ bulimia and decided to
begin my own suppon group for the campus community My Pi Phi sisters at Michigan Delta were very supportive as I made presentations to many sororities and organizations on Albion ' s campus Two years later , I came to work for ANAD to be their administrator . It is a challenging. rewarding , and exciting position
Each day , I answer hot line calls from victims and families across the United States and Canada Working with recovering anorexics and bulimics in a suppon group is very fulfilling as well. I am always learning more about these problems and those who are affected by them
Accepts self
My experience as an ANAD intern really made me realize that I needed to confront and understand some of my underlying feelings offear, anxiety, anger, and self-esteem. I began to accept myself for who I am instead of trying to please everyone else in my life I am letting go of the problems in my life over which I have no control. I am much healthier now, both physically and psychologically Life is so much more meaningful without the obsessions of food, dieting, and control.
"Ocean to ocean there's lasting devotion in the hearts that are bound by the wine and silver blue . Whatever may bind you there's Pi Beta Phi beside you, holding their hands to you . " ANAD holds its hands to you and your sisters. ANAD is building a preventative program for young people in their teens Funding is necessary. so think of ideas that could help your future sisters, our young teens of today If your sisters need help, hold out your hand with love and concern.

Country dance expert teaches mini-series stars
When Manha and George Washington and Sally and George Fairfax whirled through the dance called "Hunt the Squirrel," they did so under the watchful eye of Barbara Hicks Harding, Ohio Delta .
Last April CBS presented an eight-hour mini-series , " George Washington, " and Barbara was asked to teach Barry Bostwick, Jaclyn Smith, Patty Duke Astin and David Dukes the intricacies of 1776 country dances. The series was filmed in Alexandria, Va and the Smithsonian Institution recommended that Barbara be contacted to provide dancers for the series.
Barbara lives in Herndon , Va ., and she has been dancing , performing, studying , and teaching country dancing, especially English country dancing, since 1950. In 1975 she began studying researched dances that had been collected as having been performed in 1776 .
"I formed a class of dancers interested in exploring these dances," she writes. "We performed at Herndon ' s Bicentennial Ball , and kept right on performing , as we found this a delight
"We became the Old Dominion Dancers , and have been invited to perform at historic sites in the D C. and northern Virginia area , including Woodlawn Plantation, Renwi ck Gallery , Lee Mansion , Gadsby 's Tavern in Old Town Alexandria , and others. "
Barbara earned a Bachelor's degree in elementary education at American University , after transferring from Ohio Wesleyan during her sophomore year. She is a kinderganen teacher and president of Harding Hall Day Care Center in Herndon . Her special interest, in addition to English country dancing, is English ritual dancing , and she teaches and directs a group of 5th and 6th grade boys who perform ancient ritual sword dances
Girl Scouts , churches, and other community organizations benefit from Barbara's talent as she donates her dance teaching services for such special activities In November and early December , she invites children from all churches to assemble for rehearsal in her home , and they prepare and present a program of Christmas folk music and carols. Children from kinderganen through 6th grade panicipate , and the chorus numbers from 40 to 70 voices This has been an annual event for nearly twenty years
Barbara is a regular member of the faculty of Christmas Country Dance School at Berea College in Kentucky, and is there every Christmas season . Early last January she taught a course in country dancing to a double Elderhostel at Berea During the 1981-82 school year at Berea, she directed the Country Dancers , a team of 60 selected dancers who performed throughout the state of Kentucky , and neighboring states, as a means of introducing the public to Berea College .
Barbara has always had a deep interest in children . "I have a firm feeling about the rights of children and work to see that they have proper opponunities for education .
"Keeping ritual dancing alive is my approach to history and I find it fascinating Country dancing is one of my favorite activities," she says.
Would Barbara encourage others to go into the teaching field?
"Immerse yourself in activities involving children in a learning situation," she advises "If this has any meaning for you, go into education. DO NOT expect to make a 'cool million '."
But do expect great satisfaction Barbara Harding has found that satisfaction in her teaching.

Riverboat is scene of spring formal
by SUE MANDERS
Have you ever dreamed of a cruise on the Loveboat? Well for Ohio Epsilon Pi Phis, the dream seemed to come true. In May, eighty University oft oledo Pi Phis and area alums, along with their dates, boarded the all new paddlewheel riverboat, The Arawanna Princess. Departing from the docks of Maumee Bay, the boat moved along the shoreline for two hours, while couples dined and danced to the music beat. The exciting and romantic evening did not end there, however. After docking, everyone headed for the Toledo Yach t Club to dance the rest of
the evening away.
This formal was a night to be remembered , butthe opening of a new developmentforToledomade it even more exciting and memorable. Portside, a Festival Market Place, held its grand opening that day. Thousands of people from near and far were on shore celebrating the occasion as the Pi Phis cruised down the river, waving to the crowds as if they were sailing on the Loveboat. For Ohio Epsilon, this formal was the greatest ever.
Burgeson receives political science award
Robyn Burgeson was a very active Pi Phi in the political scene at Simpson College. She studied international business for one semester at Drew University during her junior year, and upon her return to Simpson , interned at the Des Moines state capital for interim Interim of her senior year saw her interning for Iowa Congressman Tom
Harkin . That experience led to a job with the current Harkin campaign Last year she was vice president of the student body as well as a chapter officer
At the spring Honors Convocation , Ro byn received the Ou tstanding Political Science Student Award and was inducted into Who 's Who Among Colleges and Universities .
Dr. King speaks at St. Lawrence
by JILL CASE
New York Gamma hosted past Convention speaker, Dr. Edward King, in April. He arrived just in time to wrap up St. Lawrence's Greek Week festivities with a timely and appropriate talk.
Dr. King's visit was the result of a suggestion by T . G . C. Martha Hughey and much hard work by President Mary Read to acquire funding for the event .
The entire chapter worked on publicity and the result was an impressive audience consisting of Greeks, nonGreeks, faculty, and administration.
The ideals which Dr. King enumerated were especially timely as the Greek system is currently under scrutiny at St . Lawrence. Greeks looked to Dr. King for guidance during a special workshop held at the Pi Phi house, to which all fraternity presidents were invited
The Pi Phis at St. Lawrence are aware of the importance of their contributions to a positive Greek image on campus. Dr . King's visit was a way to reinforce that image and a positive Pi Phi image .
The Montana Stat e Un iversity Ch_rsquad has two Pi Phis as part of the squad. Lisa Bender • left • is a cheerleader ond Simonne Corne Is a dancer for the year
Debbie Berman Missouri Beta is 19U-85 Miss St Louis. crowned last March. In July. she was chosen second runner·up and won first place in the bathing suit competition in the Miss Missouri Pageant.
Chapter visits Zozobra Festival
by MEUSSAJACKSON
A New Mexico Alpha tradition was carried on once again this fall. Fifty UNM Pi Phis and T.G.C. Lisa Gammel went to Santa Fe, N.M. to see the Zozobra Festival. Burning Zozobra is a Spanish tradition where a twenty-five foot puppet is constructed by the people and painted and decorated to look like an old man. He goes by the name of "Old Man Gloom."
As the ceremony begins, Zozobra is posted in a field where 40,000 people gather to watch. Fit,sta officials then set the giant puppet on fire, symbolizing all the gloom of the year being burnt away As Zozobra burns, the crowd gets happier as their gloom also burns away The Zozobra is also ftIled with fireworks that add to the excitement . Following the burning, there is a celebration party in the plaza in Santa Fe. All the people gather to listen to Spanish music, dance, and to celebrate with friends the beginning of a happy and prosperous year The week long Fiesta ended September 9.
Almost any college female will be happy to tell you , it's only rush It's only rush? No way, it's more than that, much more Rush was one week of non-stop activities, new friendships, and bottled emotions that slowly and unknowingly build inside until they are released once and for all (usually through a phone call to mom and lots of tears)
Just having gone through rush a little over a week ago, I think I experienced every emotion imaginable. The beginning of the week was curiosity, anxiety, apprehension, and an abundance of nerves By the middle of the week, restlessness entered the picture-almost a feeling that I wouldn't ever be able to come to a decision in just a few days The nervousness had calmed a bit and conversation became more tangible. Near the end of the week , the picture had narrowed (thank God).
Emotions, on the other hand had not. They stirred inside and came out unpredictably, and the tears flowed like water . Amongst all that emotion, however, was a cutting feeling telling me what to do It just took many phone calls and late night talks to bring it out.
I'm proud to say I've made one of the best decisions ever in my life. I chose Pi Beta Phi as my home. I was not alone, however. Thirty other girls made the same lifelong choice I'm also very proud to add that the Pi Beta Phi chapter on the campus of Bradley University was the only house to make quota this fall That, in itself, tells of the quality found in the girls of Illinois Theta
I wanted a house with sisters who are honest, hard-working, caring, and, above all, special to me. I've found exactly what I need-a family that is all mine.
My future as a Pi Phi looks to be all that I want it to be-an inner strength that binds everyone together and makes us one. I'm lucky to have uncovered such a strength on the campus of Bradley University .
Moms weekend is special time
Even though the day proved cold and wet, happy hearts warmed all Pi Phis when their mothers came for a visit . April 7th and 8th was Mom's Weekend for Oklahoma Betas
The fun began Saturday morning with party pics and a Mom's Club meeting. Then everyone enjoyed an Easter basket lunch before spending the afternoon shopping, talking, or attending a campus fashion show . Some visited a local woman who raises sheep and then spins and dyes her own yarn. The beautiful, handmade sweaters she creates amazed everyone.
The day's finale was watching the Pi Phi-Farmhouse act in the annual Spring Sing competition. Not only mothers were proud of the Oklahoma Beta effon as they proved they were •• Ape Over Moms" when they performed in their homemade costumes . The evening ended with a real treat-a Pi Phi Cooky-Shine!
Texas Beta Is proud of its victorious softball team. Front, I·r: Cha Cha Symonds, Julie Brown, Kim Gray, Lori GrlzaHI. Bock: Kissy Butler , Elizabeth Eckel. Elizabeth Lawson, Borb Suklnek, Galen Beveridge, Ashley Keller, and unidentified Pike.
Kentucky Betas Cindy Arnold , Betty Talbott, and Amy Hurd were members of the PI Phi group who captured second place in the sorority division of Chi Omega Greek Sing.
At 104, Alice Flick is still interested in Pi Phi
Perhaps the oldest living member of Pi Beta Phi is Alice Dunning Flick, Maryland Alpha . Alice lives in Des Moines, lA, and she celebrated her 104th birthday last August 25th, with neighbors and local Pi Phis stopping in to congratulate her.
Alice was born and raised in Bedford, IA . She was graduated from high school in 1898 and went to Baltimore, MD to attend Goucher College. She was initiated into Maryland Alpha in 1901. In college she was May Queen and president of the senior class as well as being active on the girls' basketball team and in other sports. May Lansfield Keller, Pi Phi's Grand President from 1908-1918, was one of Alice's good friends.
In 1907 Alice married Bruce Flick, a lawyer who was a member of her high school graduating class and they had three children. The move to Des Moines came in 1921, where Alice became active in many civic activities, as well as a member of the Pi Beta Phi Alumnae Club .
Alice now lives with her retired son, and comes downstairs all dressed for the day for lunch and dinner She always checks the morning paper, and tries to take a daily walk , using her walker for assistance She likes to end her day watching the nightly news, but she admits she doesn't always agree with it.
Her son, Robert, likes to tell an amusing story about early days. As a young boy, he often went with his mother to meetings, since babysitters weren't available. When asked , "What do you want to be when you grow up?" he would answer, ''I'm going to Goucher College and be a Pi Phi!"
Alice , to this day, is still interested in Pi Phi The daughter of her cleaning lady is cook at the new Iowa Eta chapter at Drake University , so Alice hears a lot about what is going on.
(j)KT honors Mom Evans
by VmGINIA HOOVER FRANKLIN
Mary Morgan Evans , Ohio Alpha Golden Arrow, retired this spring after fifteen years as housemother of the Ohio Universiry chapter of Phi Kappa Tau. For most of those years she was the only fraterniry housemother on campus.
A retirement dinner party given by the men of Phi Kappa Tau was the biggest "happening " at Ohio University in many years. One hundred fifty guests joined the many Phi Kappa Tau alumni who returned from over the United States to honor and pay tribute to Mom Evans, and to join in the cheers and tears as memories were shared Among the guests was the national president of Phi Kappa Tau who expressed, on behalf of the national fraternity, his appreciation of Mom Evans ' contributions and dedicated service to Phi Kappa Tau, the Greek system, Ohio University, and the Athens community Ohio Alpha of Pi Beta Phi serenaded and sent flowers. Tributes were received from fraternities , Ohio Universiry administrators , political leaders , and community friends . A personal message paying tribute to Mom Evans' achievements was received from President Ronald Reagan.
Rider awaits rodeo finals
by KADy McMASTER
Talent , poise, and appearance are important aspects of every pageant . But this December , Kansas Alpha Teddi Bankes also will have to ride a horse to win her crown.
Bankes, Miss Rodeo will compete for the title on Miss Rodeo America, representing the Professional Rodeo Association nationwide.
To win the title of Miss Rodeo Kansas , Teddi was judged on poise and appearance, talent, performance in a personal interview, and extemporaneous speaking. The talent portion of the contest is based on horsemanship and the contestant's knowledge of rodeo
The national pageant will be held during National Finals Rodeo in Oklahoma City Teddi will be judged on many of the same aspects as in the state pageant , with one exception. The horsemanship section of the national contest will differ from the state pageants in that the contestants will not ride their own horses.
Questions in the personal interview are similar to those other pageant contestants face, except they have a rodeo twist, Bankes said . The poise and appearance section of the pageant includes a modeling competition .
"Instead of swimsuits , we model traditional western wear," she said.
As a public relations and communications major, Teddi finds her position helpful and rewarding She travels to rodeos and makes public appearances throughout the state.
"I have to do most of the PR work myself," she said "I couldn't have asked for a better internship this summer."
Teddl Banke. wears her title proudly.

House party stirs memories
by CYNTHIA SEIFERT TOUSLEY
Thirty-one years ago in August , 1953 , twenty-one nervous , recently graduated high schoolers pledged Pi Beta Phi at Illinois Theta at Bradley University in Peoria , Ill. "Dressed to the nines" in fancy dre sses , hats , white gloves, and matching shoes and purses, the twenty-one decided that Pi Phi was the fraternity for them and took the chapter by storm! The bonds of sisterhood were stressed over and over again in the wine and the blue-and the twenty-one believed
Thirty-one years later, in June , ten of those same sisters returned to the Illinois Theta chapter house to renew old friendships and to discover that the bonds of sisterhood , touted so highl y years ago , were sti ll stro ng and endur ingwhat they had believed so long ago was really true!
Four of the Peoria Pi Phis , over lunch one day , had the brainstorm for the reunion and decided to have it even if they were the only ones to attend The idea took hold and ten who returned had lunch at the chapter house , a tour of the Bradley campus by an active Pi Phi , dinner at the newly remodeled Pere Hotel (scene of many formals in the 50 ' s) , then back to the chapter house for a ' 's lumber party" and all those " do you remembers. " Chapter histories for 1953-57 helped jog memories Brunch the next morning concluded the festivities and amid hugs , smiles , and fond farewells , there was a sense of love and sisterhood that had remained strong and true. That sisterhood bridged the gap of thirty-one years .

Calligraphy expert is i n t e rnatio nall y known
How does one segue from being a scuba diving instructor to being nationally recognized in the fields of calligraphy and italic handwriting? Well, if you are Denys Richardson Taipale, Washington Alpha , of Great Falls, Mont . , you have an interesting story to tell.
Denys has always lo ved the water, and several years ago, she was a scuba instructor for the military in Okinawa She had 650 open ocean dives teaching and working with dangerous marine life under a government grant. One day a new student signed up using a beautiful style of writing on his application. When Denys asked about it , she became interested and from that beginning grew the hobby that has become her career.
Denys has an international reputation as a calligrapher, instructor of calligraphy and its related areas , is a consultant on italic handwriting, and is the author of a series of books.
After her introdu ction to calligraphy , she worked on her own for three years, then spent the next eleven traveling around the world to study the art with masters here and abroad She doesn ' t recommend self-study as a way to begin , however.
" I had to unlearn a lot of bad habits Find a qualified teacher , " she urge s. "There are calligraphy societies everywhere, and they list teachers . "
As a calligraphy instructor, Denys works with approximately twenty groups a year , running three day to ten day workshops for the beginner through the more experienced . These workshops cover letterforms, layout , design , color , and reproduction . She recently finished a six day workshop with two other calligraphers at Northern Arizona University in Flagstaff, and that workshop will be repeated in Montana in 1986
Denys says she is a " tough teacher , " demanding two hours of homework a night from students during workshops . She
uses humor and enthusiasm and usually leaves her students with a year's worth of material to work on. In her own work she is especially lauded for her swash capitals , the fancy capital letters that go with italic calligraphy . She has been featured at many calligraphy gatherings nationally, and has been guest speaker for the Society for Italic Handwriting in London.
Not only is Denys a former scuba diving instructor, but she is a veteran ski patrol member, a sailor, antique collector, mother of two sons, both in early 20s, and world traveler. As the latter, she averages 100,000 miles per year to teach and run seminars.
That's another side to her personality-flying frightens her, so she sleeps and avoids any conversations on a plane. She has a way of handling garrulous seatmates.
"When they ask what I do for a living," she laughs, "I tell them I'm a nuclear physicist. That shuts them up."
So Denys Taipale continues her travels. She is always booked far in advance. In her hometown of Great Falls, there has been so much exposure to the art form that the school system has f ormally adopted the teac h ing of italic handwriting into its curriculum. Denys wrote the materials and teaches teachers how to present it.
Sorority Sisterhood
by KIM BATES
Four workers huddle around an old, rickety table in the back of a clothing store. We have been given our fifteen minute break and the time is spent gulping Tab and talking. Today conversation turns to the colleges we attend. Mary lights up as she describes her plans for the coming year; she plans to live in her sorority house.
"Oh," I ask, swallowing from my pop bottle while eyeing the time clock. "What sorority are you in?"
"Kappa Kappa Gamma," she replied.
Mary-a Kappa! Somehow, away from school, I expect sororities to be a well-kept secret from the world When I proudly announce that I am a Pi Phi, we begin exchanging stories of sorority life . We soon discover a new link between us. I write for The ARROW; she writes for Kappa's The KEY
Too soon our break is over and we return to the floor Yet I have come to recognize the pride which exists in all sorority women For sororities are not cliquish groups of insecure girls , but women who wish to.learn and experience together. Of course, Pi Phi is not just a sorority, but a band of angels with a rich heritage and promising future because they reach out to their campuses and communities.
How ironic that hearing happy tales from a Kappa friend made me realize even more how proud I am to be a Greek-a Pi Phi!
Pi Phis aid brother fraternity
Colorado Gammas hosted a Mexican dinner to help with the colonization of Beta Theta Pi on Colorado State's campus in the fall. Betas from Colorado School of Mines and the University of Colorado also helped with the dinner and rush

Many schools hear Julie
Speaking in the Greek system, teaching Bible studies and seminars, and counseling with students concerning Christianity are all part of Florida Beta Julie Stein Gray's job with Campus Crusade for Christ at Texas Christian University.
Julie and her husband, Scort, were featured in a recent issue of Worldwide Challenge Magazine. The article also gave Texas Delta some national exposure with a picture of their chapter room as well as exerpts of a talk Julie gave in their chapter meeting.
Julie speaks throughout the Greek system-to pledge as well as actives, on campuses as far away from Texas as MIamI of Ohio . She gives suggestions on how to work well together as a team, tips on time management, how to deal with anxiety , and conducts diagnostic seminars with executive councils on styles of decision making and interpersonal needs She admits that her favorite audiences, however, are Pi Phi chapters!
Julie is several years older than the students she work with, but her relational skills seem to minimize any differences. She's a good observer and a good listener. She values honesty in relationships.
"I don'tlike to play games ," she says. "I don't have a thick facade to make people guess about what's underneath. "
The Grays have counseled students with anorexia nervosa, alcoholism, and other problems. They attempt to create an environment of love, caring, and acceptance within the Campus Crusade movement. They see themselves as resource people for students interested in understanding more about Christ.
When speaking on working together as a team, Julie offers four points. "Be aware of how what you do affects others," Be yourself," "Be involved." and "Take time to think."

A note from camp
Dear Mom and Dad,
As usual, I've had a wonderful summer here at Camp Pinecliffe, but this summer four of our counselors added a special dimension to our family unit .
Cathy Cullen, Katie Holmes, RobertaJones, and Sue Marthews are all sisters of New York Gamma of Pi Beta Phi. It's been neat to see the friendships that can develop in a sorority, just like camp.
Cathy taught me everything I know about sailing, and Bert was a leader on some of the hikes. Katie explained about the natural world of Harrison, Maine in her Explorer'S hut, while Sue and the land sports department kept us active throughout the days. Cathy and Sue have shared even more of the summer as they have been co-bunk counselors.
So I've noticed that beyond having a special binding relationship, these Pi Phis are unique individuals. This will continue after they separate at the end of camp and move on to their fall commitments. Katie goes back to St. Lawrence University for her fmal year, Cathy will study in France, Bert will have an internship at home for the semester, and Sue will enter the real working world.
I think they ' re lucky to have such a special source of support, concern, and happiness as they find among each other. It makes me think of home See ya soon.
Your loving daughter

Dr. Forker enjoys work on U.S. Olympic Committee
(The following story about Pi Phi's special initiate at the Minneapolis Convention in 1977, Dr. Barbara Forker, Minnesota Alpha, appeared in a recent issue of the iowa stater.)
Barbara Forker is one of many Iowa Staters who were involved in the 1984 Summer Olympic Games ....
Forker, Distinguished Professor of Education and head of the department of physical education, is a member of the executive committe e of the United States Olympic Committee (USOC).
A sports enthusiast , Forker has taken a keen interest in U . S. participation in the O l ympics since 1975 when she serve d on the President's Commission on Olympic Sports . She is proud of the part she and that commission played in the reorganization of amateur athletics in this country.
"The primary reason for the appointment of the commission by Pres i dent Ford was to determine what factors impede or tend to impede the United States from fielding its best teams in international competition Organizational conflicts created a fragmentation among amateur athletic organizations which in turn imposed undue pressure on the individual athlete," Forker explained. Following a year-and-a-half study, the commission ' s recommendations were used by Congress to form the Amateur Sports Act of 1978.
"As a result of my work on the commission I was asked to serve as a representat ive to the delegate assembly of the USOC," she said. The group meets annually to elect USOC officers and to enact , amend or repeal provisions of the USOC Constitution.
Currently Forker serves on the executive board . " We handle the main business affairs of the USOC, carry out the purposes and goals, and determine policy ," Forker explained . The board meets five or six times during the year at different locations about the country
"I do enjoy my work with the USOC, " Barbara said. "The concepts I deal with and believe in so strongly are also a part of my work in physical education and leisure studies," she said .
In addition to her many other honors, Barbara received the Virgil S Lagomarcino Laureate Award, inJune, presented by the Iowa State College of Education for prestigious service , educational leadership, and personal commitment to education and to the profession of teaching .

Chapter charter members honored at Founders' Day
by SHEREE MAUPIN ZIZZI
At their annual Founders' Day celebration last spring, Phi East Province paid special tribute to charter members of California Epsilon (San Diego State), initiated thirty-five years ago.
Twenty-one of the 116 women initiated in September, 1949 , were reunited at the luncheon and awards ceremony on April 28, 1984 . Marian Knight Turner began contacting charter members by mail last winter regarding the reunion
"The response to our plans was really terrific," said Marian "These ladies were so excited about getting together after so many years. "
A huge enlargement of a group photo, taken approximately one week after the 1949 installation, was displayed at the luncheon along with Pi Phi memorabilia belonging to dif· ferent charter members. During the luncheon, Marian intro· ducred each charter member in attendance and gave a brief history of the founding of California Epsilon
Pi Sigma Nu, then the largest local social sorority at San Diego State , petitioned and was granted a charter by Pi Beta Phi. Pledge training was carried out through the summer of 1949 under the direction of ARROW editor , Adele Taylor Alford, special advisor to the chapter.
Amy Burnham Onken, Grand President, was the installing officer , assisted by Adele Alford, Olga Charles Siburg, Mu Province President, and Marcella McCormick Rhodes .
Greek spirit earns Panhel award
The Panhellenic Association at Duke University gave its first Sorority-of-the -Week award to North Carolina Betas for their spirit of Greek unity-not only among themselves , but also with the other twelve sororities on campus.
This all came about when two sororities desperately needed their materials for initiation but found that they were packed somewhere in the back of an eighteen wheel truck. Six Pi Phis went to the rescue and helped unload the truck unci! everything was found
Happily , initiation went on as scheduled and seventy girls have entered the bond of sisterhood!

My "Capital" experience
by EllZABETH LEEp
Like many Duke students approaching their senior year, I chose to spend my last college summer as an intern in Washington, D.C. This decision is a popular one for students around the country, and rightly so, since the work experience gained is practical, useful, and valuable for a student's career. Spending the summer at a trial job gives many undergraduates the chance to test the job market, see what opportunities exist, establish a network of contacts , and narrow their professional interests But, in addition, there is lots of fun to be had in the nation's Capital while one is testing out one's independence in the world beyond college.
My internship was conducted in conjunction with American University's Washington Semester Program. In addition to my full time job I went to class every Thursday evening with eleven other students to discuss our job experiences Each student contributed different opinions on the topics we discussed, such as power within the organization, the organization's method of dealing with outside agencies, and our unique frustrations with the job .
Mter four interviews I chose the Public Affairs office at the National Museum of American History, one of the Smithsonian Museums This position combined my dual interests in museum administration, specifically public relations, and American history and political science, my majors at Duke.
My personal project was handling most of the film crews that came into the Museum. My first day on the job proved to be one of the most exciting. Ginger Rogers was to appear for a press conference to donate the dress she wore in Top Hat to the Museum. The event was a prime example of a publicity stunt, an essential ingredient to keep the Museum in the public eye. All major Washington newspapers, TV programs, and interested magazines were present, creating an atmosphere of a small scale Presidential press conference! Other interns and I were right in the middle of the action, directing the press, helping them set up their equipment, and making sure the schedule of events ran smoothly Our efforts were rewarded both with a close-up glimpse of Miss Rogers and a repeat of the day's performance on evening news and in papers.
Washington is a city so full of history, culture, beauty, and action that one cannot appreciate it all in just a shott two months. But in that time I became well acquainted with the area; it had become a second home. My internship proved to be a catalyst for my career : the field of museum administration sparked my interest and I have investigated the opportunities for graduate work. Museums house our nation's most treasured history and art collections. What better location than our nation's Capital to spend a summer, and what better organization than the American History branch of the highly regarded Smithsonian Institution

Last summer the week of training was enhanced by the participation of Grand President Jean Wirths Scott Also
attending for special topics were Dawn Sheeler Ford , Kappa Province President, who discussed leadership techniques , and the Fraternity'S attorney, Tim Burke, who instructed the consultants on legal aspects offraternity.
Tours of Arrowmont facilities and Arrowcraft Shop , as well as intermingling with the summer craft students provided knowledge and appreciation of our philanthropies that are difficult to convey in words alone . The eight new consultants are now sharing their knowledge and impressions among many of our 116 chapters and colonies .

Initiate treasures pin handcrafted in 1890
by LAURIE WINTERS
Pi Beta Phi creates bonds of friendship and love that form a very special family. When a Pi Phi legacy decided to make her mother's sorority her own, a new generation of the Pi Phi family is born
Kentucky Beta Mary Slaman shares her Pi Phi family bonds with her mother, Alice Slaman, her grandmother, Mary Frances Lord, both Ohio Alphas, Aunts Myra Jane Drew of Ohio Alpha, Pat Slaman of Ohio Beta, and cousins Wendy Slaman, Anne Slaman, and Linda Blair, all of Ohio Beta . When Mary entered the University of Kentucky she decided to wait a year before she chose a sorority. "Being independent my freshman year gave me the opportunity to reach my academic goals, meet many different kinds of people and get to know myself," she said. "I wanted to see what it was like on the other side of college life." During fall rush, at the Kentucky Beta house Mary found "the special friendships I had been searching for. ' ,
Mary's mother was secretly brought to Lexington for her February initiation ceremony to present her daughter with a Pi Phi family heirloom, an antique arrow badge inlaid with eight emeralds, handcrafted in 1890. The badge was willed to Mary's grandmother by sorority sister, Bertha Brown, to be presented to her first daughter should she decide to become a Pi Phi. When Mary 's mother pledged in 1951 at Ohio University she became the proud owner of the pin which Mary now treasures
work in restoring the venerable Wentworth by The Sea Hotel so that it is once again a congregating place for the great and near-great from throughout the United States and Europe
Gracious and warm-hearted, her compassion and concern for people has earned her the respect and esteem of literally thousands who have benefited from her involvement in civic, cultural, and community affairs
The second Pi Phi honored during the University'S commencement was Isabelle Keating Savell, Nyack, NY, who received an honorary degree . A journalism graduate in 1926, Isabelle has been active in conservation, health, public affairs , and politics, and has been in the forefront of local activities of the utmost importance.
A consistent worker for the rights of women and minorities, Isasbelle has devoted her efforts to an unusual organization She is vice president of the Fund for Corporate Interns, a privately funded program to encourage young minority and women students to enter business careers. She is also senior historian of the Rockland County, NY Historical Society, and continues writing about the heritage and traditions of New York State, in which her profound respect for scholarship, learning, and the art of communication is evident.
Isabelle was honored as "one of those very rare human beings who combines the skills of an administrator with the tempering wisdom of a humanist. ' ,
Indiana Alpha friends attend high school reunion
The saying that old friends are the best is especially true when the friends happen to be Pi Phis! A very special group was together in July when they artended their high school reunion in Franklin, Ind As teenagers they were a close-knit group and went on to Franklin College together where they became members of Indiana Alpha They have continued to keep in touch for the almost fifty intervening years, and claim that that may be a Pi Phi record of some kind .
Artending the reunion were Kathryn Murphy Wolff, Helen Means Threlkeld, Martha Drybread Deppe , Betty Butler Holdcroft , now Zeta North Alumnae Province President, Mary Boegaholtz Patterson , Jean Shafer Whitaker , Elizabeth Hougland Ferrara, Pauline Devore Crump , and Alice Hougham Fewell.

Quilt is gift of love
bY]ULIE]ONES
When it came time for Mom's Day at the University of Oklahoma, Oklahoma Alpha Pi Phis wanted to give their housemother, Rebecca Priest , a gift that would be from every girl in the house. Instead of buying something, creative Pi Phis decided to make Mom Priest a present that she could use and one that would have a special message from each girl. After settling on the idea of making a patchwork quilt, each Pi Phi made her patch represent a little bit about herself and what Mom Priest means to her. No two patches are alike. Some have cross-stitched sayings, while others have puff-painted flowers and hearts . One square even has stuffed balloons attached to it .
There are over a hundred different squares on the quilt, each made with love for a ttuly special lady who is a home-awayfrom-home mom for the Pi Phis at the University of Oklahoma.
Chapter receives special photo
Last April at the annual Founders' Day program, members of West Virginia Alpha received a special gift from the Charleston Alumnae Club . A photograph from the 1924 Pi Beta Phi Eastern Conference was presented to the chapter. The Conference was held in Washington , D . C., while Grace Coolidge was First Lady .
The picture, taken on the White House front lawn, shows all the women present at the Conference, including Mrs. Coolidge, Founders Inez Smith Soule and Jennie Horne Turnbull , and then Grand President , Amy Burnham Onken
The chapter treasures the photo and it is a gift that West Virginia Alphas may appreciate for many years.
H. Dampier appointed to Western Ontario Council
(The major portion of the following article appeared in the Alumni Gazette of the University of Western Ontario )
Concerned , active, and involved are key words to describe Hilda Ingram Dampier , Ontario Beta, who has just been appointed a member of the National Alumni Advisory Council of the University of Western Ontario
During her student days at Western, Hilda was very involved in student affairs , serving as a member of the University Students' Council for three years and as a founding member of Ontario Beta. When she graduated in 1936, with a B. A . in secretarial science, she was elected to the U . W . O . Honour Society .
In 1939 Hilda married Lawrence Dampier, and following his return from overseas during World War II, they made a number of moves throughout Canada, finally settling, in 1957, in Vancouver
Among her many activities, she is an active member of the Women's Auxiliary to Pearson Hospital and Rehabilitation Center; a qualified volunteer member at the Museum of Anthropology at the University of British Columbia; and an active member and past officer of the Georgian Club of Vancouver.
Although she enjoys spending time with her four children, their spouses, and fifteen grandchildren, Hilda is still anxious to make a contribution to society, so she rose to the challenge when asked to serve on the Advisory Council. This dedicated and talented woman is a welcome addition to the Council where she will prove to be a definite asset as a result of her past experience, record of service, and loyalty to her alma mater .

Beach campfire brings new Pi Phi friendship
by LAURIE TYLER
Anne Herndon , Monica Shaw , and Laurie Tyler , all Oklahoma Alphas , spent a week at Litchfield Beach in South Carolina last summer. One night , while strolling down the beach , the three were invited to join a group of people at a campftre. When they sat down , a voice from the other side of the campftre asked if they were Pi Phis. The voice came from Amy Lytle , Pennsylvania Gamma , who noticed that Anne had on a Pi Beta Phi party shirt. They were so excited to meet another Pi Phi from someplace besides Oklahoma that they spent all night talking to her.
Each day they spent time with Amy on the beach and came to know all about her and Pennsylvania Gamma. They taught each other their chapter songs, and a lot of time was spent giving each other ideas for our chapters
Amy is going to try to get party shirts for her chapter which they didn't have before Amy received a T-shirt from Oklahoma Alpha ' s last party because they wanted to give her something special to remember them by. The Oklahoma Alphas are hoping to visit Amy and meet the Pennsylvania Gammas, and they want Amy and her friends to corne visit them Meeting Amy and hearing about sisters they didn ' t know was one of the highlights of the summer .
The week ended all too soon . The last night they all went to Myrtle Beach , and Amy presented a gift to give to Oklahoma Alpha It was the book' 'The Giving Tree" which Amy noted was very special to her and her Pennsylvania Gamma family. She hoped it might bring our worlds in Pi Beta Phi a little bit closer.
Oklahoma Alphas send their love and thanks to Amy Lytle and Pennsylvania Gamma. Pi Beta Phi is truly Ocean to Ocean
J o b as nanny is exciting

Caren knew about her summer for over a year and a half. Therefore , anticipation had built up for quite some time He r position was known as an aupere , a term given to foreign students who go to England to learn the English language while tending children of an English household Although Caren knew the language , the family accepted her for the summer .
Opportunities were endless . Caren lived a half hour from London and taking the children to the theatre and on picnics in scenic London was easy . Of course , breakfast had to be prepared , the children had to be sent off to school on time , and the four o ' clock tea had to be se t up each afternoon , but it was well worth it all Caren was particularly excited when she found herself rubbing elbows with ro yal ty a t the Royal Ascot ho rse race!
Tour of annexes is party
On the evening of Wednesday, Septem b er 5th, New York Delta had their ftrst Rotational Party. Although the chap ter is fortunate to have its own ho use, only about forty of the sisters are able to be accommodated each year The "in-house" sisters are predominately the new pledge class, in addition to the officers . The rest of the sisters are considered" out-house" sisters. The party was an attempt to bring the two together
Most of the out-house sisters live in apartments, referred to as Pi Phi annexes , in different areas of the university Since chapter meetings, and other functions throughout the week usually take place at the house, many of the in-house sisters don't have a chance to see where and with whom their other sisters live
The party was organized so that each annex had a different type of refreshment and food In-house sisters went from apartment to apartment , spending about twenty minutes in each place. Sisters had a chance to get to know each other better while getting a complete tour of each annex as well

Vocalist sings praises of DePauw education
by MARy lEE GEOGHEGAN
"DePauw taught me how to explore," says Nancy Hasler , Indiana Epsilon "And even though it sounds like a cliche, the truth is that if it hadn't been for DePauw , I'd never be where I am now."
And just where is Nancy now? That question might take some time to answer because, throughout the course of this year, she and 120 other students from allover the world will be traveling to different states and different countries. Although this group, which represents over fourteen countries, may seem incredibly diverse, they all have at least one thing in common: they ate members of Up With People
No , Nancy is not in the School of Music. ''I' m a communications major ," she says. Because Nancy's two older brothers attended DePauw, she was fIrst attracted through family tradition But like most freshmen , Nancy was unsure about which atea of interest to pursue
"I knew I wanted a small, personal college and a strong liberal-attS education And that's about all I knew ."
Since then , Nancy has taken advantage of the opportunities DePauw has presented ''I've tried just about everything, " she says "But I think it's necessary in order for you to fInd out exactly what you want . . . what will make you happy in life. I've always been interested in people," Nancy comments.
DePauw has allowed her to cultivate this interest in many ways, especially through Winter Term She has a course concentration in Sociology which led her to panicipate in a winter term mission project to Peru She was scheduled for the winter term to Mrica this January but had to cancel when she joined Up With People.
Another winter term experience took her to Washington, D.C. where she worked on Senator Percy 's campaign and explored her political interests. Nancy's people-oriented personaliry worked in her favor again when winter term at L.S. Ayres in Indianapolis won a summer job for her as a fashion buyer
"But all along I've always had music ," Nancy says. "It's just that up until now , music has only been a hobby for me " Nancy sang with bands in her hometown of Patis, Ill ., throughout high school. She has been the lead singer in DePauw's band, Vengeance , for two yeats.
When she returns to DePauw for her fInal yeat, Nancy will only spend the second half on campus with her Pi Phi sisters She had been approved to do an internship at NBC in New York this fall and since she decided to work with Up With People, DePauw allowed this internship to be deferred to next fall.
"I might not have joined if they hadn't let me go to New York when I got back ," Nancy reflects, "because this was the chance to explore communications in the outside world. But I think DePauw realized , along with me , that both opponunities were too good to pass up."
Nancy raves about her experience with Up With People so fat "My voice qualiry has improved so much and my range has increased an octave " She has been given three solos and is dancing too.
"Music is in my blood now," Nancy laughs, "and I'm more confused now than when I was a freshman. But at least I know what I don't like . And I've had the chance , which most people don't, to find out what I intensely like."
In a few months, Nancy Hasler will be performing in Patis again. But this time it's Patis, France, instead of Patis, Ill.
''I'm actually going to see the Eiffel Tower, " Nancy says excitedly. "The only one I've ever seen is a miniature replica in a patk in Paris, Illinois-and it ' s painted pink!"
