The EVOLUTION of a FLYING CADET

THE fl ying training activities of the U . S . Army

Air Corps a re res tri cted to three fi elds, two

speciali zing in primary training and one devoted

entirely to advanced work. ·Air Corps Primary Fly­

ing Schools are located at M arch F ield, Ri verside,

California, and at Brooks Field, San Antonio,

T exas. Kelly F ield, at which is found the Air

Corps Advanced Flying School is likewise situa ted

a t San Antonio. . The training course extends over

:1 period of one year, eight months for the primary

and four for the advanced phase. Three new classes commence primary t raining yearly; March 1st, July 1st, and N ovember 1st.

Picture appr oximately two hundred and twenty­fi ve young hopeful s entering the folds of the flying cadets as lowly " dodos" ("dodo"-a take off on that eartl1 bound foul of antiquity which though possessing wings was unable to fl y). One year l ater imagine yourself at the Kelly Field gradua­tion of the same class, witnessing the presentation of r eserve commissions and wings to some eighty or ninety budding Air Corps officers and you l1 ave a g rapl1ic illustration of the number who for one reason or another " washout" during the course.

T he write r's· class g radua ted f rom the advanced course at Kelly Field, but forty-six p er cent of those s ta rting primary tra ining at March Field one year earlier.

Civilian John Doe comes to a primary fi eld se· cure in hi s belief that he is God's gift to the Air Corps, g rand and magnificient are his mental pic· hHes of the years training. Swift and complete comes the shattering of his illusion. N o longer 3

civiJian, he is now a " dodo"- the lowest of the low, a humble molecule of humanity. Under the experienced guidance of the upper-classmen ]te comes to feel the humble station which is hiS· " On the double, Mister"-"Say sir, when address· ing superiors" -"Never thank an upperclass rnn!l for anything"-"Does he think he can fly?"_... " Yes, sir,"-"No, sir." Impossible, dark, durnb, 0

* THE STAR AND LAMP OF PI KAPPA PHI * Early in his career, J olm Dodo, starts on a

long siege of ground school which continues the

greater part of the year. The ground school in the p · b' rnnary schools embraces such su Jects as: aerial navigation, radio buzzer, practice, airplane engines, airplane maintenance, gunnery, maps, ~eteorology, aerodynamics, air commerce regula­tions, etc. Soon after his arrival the embryo pilot takes his ride in the Ruggle's Pursuit (Orientator) a gyrating mechanism designed as a primary check on students natural aptitute or ability to fly.

" Eventually flying starts . Groups of four or five dodos" arc assigned to each instructor and the

first dual hop takes place. For the "dodo," this event marks the start of the year's work. Instruc­tion · 8 In take-offs, gentle banks, and landings fea-ture the start. Slipping and skidding, aris ing through failure to properly co-ordinate use of stick and rudder, constitute the first difficulty to be conquered. Weaving take-offs and undertain bumpy landings occur all over the field. After a few hours it is apparent to an instructor which of his charges will make the grade and which \Vill require undue coaching. Check pilots with thei "b r uzzard wagons" check the progress of stu· dents from time to time and long before solo time arrives more than a few unfortunates have met the l3oard and are traveling homeward at government expe I . . nse. Tents begin to thin out, empty c 1aus m the rn h · · f · · t t ' ess all and mtssmg aces m ms rue or s ~~oups testify that the going is rough and makes

ltn Work the harder to stay. He has seen fellow students wash themselves out by worrying and re­Solves to avoid it himself.

John "Dodo" l1as survived the check rides, hi s ~ake-offs are fairly good and hi s landings not as

Ull:Jpy as at the start. He has some seven to ten hours dual on his logbook. Comes a certain event­ful morning. John Dodo takes a dual hop fea­turing a few practice spins and recovery, landings und take-offs. They land. His instructor looks hitn over and suddenly asks, "Think you can take her around?" "Yes, sir," booms the "dodo" in reply. Climbing out, the instructor gives a few Words of advice and adds, "Don't break your neck, you know these ships cost a lot of money­g~ ahead." Tickled to the g ills, John "Dodo" gtves her the gun. The wheels start to roll slowly

at first bumping heavily along the ground. The speed increases, easing forward on the stick the tail lifts. The wheels are skimm ing along the ground. A sense of buoyancy is felt. Pulling gently back on the stick, the bumping suddenly ceases. The ship is off on the eventful take-off. The front cockpit gapes emptily at him- there is no familiar helmeted figure up there to help out in a pinch this trip. Climbing up to six hundred feet he cautiously assays his first ' bank. Reassured when the controls respond perfectly, he breathes easily for the first time and turns his attention to the landing which he must make. Making his ap-

proach, he eases back on the throttle and glides downward. Maybe he levels off too high and frops in, perhaps he fl ys into the ground, bumps his wheels and bounces twenty feet skyward, pos­sibly he doesn't like the prospects and guns it around for another try. Eventually he must come down- that gas won't last all day. With a do-it-or­die attitude he sets her down OK much to hi s satis­faction and secret relief. Congratulations follow.

The boys at the table smoke cigars that noon and a highly polished "dog tag" (identification bracelet) appears for the first time on l1is wrist.

J olm Cadet is now on solo stage and tak s the group's solo ship up for a work-out each morn­ing in addition to his dual rides which continue. Soon l1e has twenty or thirty hours and another check ride to check his progress. John Cadet sur­vives-others arc not so fortunate and the tents are further thinned out, perhaps some of his own tent mates met the Board.

In the late afternoon of the second day out we get to the summit where th e train stops for a few ruinutes, the passengers get out and run up and down bes ide the ca rs. One look at the engine, wi th the smoke pouring out of the funnel, l'cminds you of a horse stopping to get its wind before going on.

In a few minutes it is "All Aboard" and we are off down the other side of the Great Divide un t il we come to Glacier National P a rk.

I WAS g reatly astounded to read

an article in a cunent news pe riodical tha t the Pullman com­pany was deploring sobbingly of a considerable loss suffered in receipts f rom their covered wagons during the fir st quarter of the present year. From the amount they garnered from yours truly, I would expect them to declare an extra di vidend. But they were kind enough to furni sl1 me with private cars in most instances, which I considered most considera te of them, and I plan to write them a letter of full apprecia tion. I do think they should have paid me a salary as ballas t or because of the g reat advertisement.

* THE STAR AN D L AM P OF PI K A PPA PHI * PAGES from OUR HISTORY

* PI KAPPA PHI goes to War

* OUR HISTORY, the history of Pi Kappa Phi,

is no narra tive of a journey up a rose strewn

p ath to glory and di stinction. Distinction, and no

small amount of glory there is ; but achieved at

what price !

There seems to be a tendency extant among fra­

ternity men either to ignore the dark days and

the moments of seemingly hopeless struggle in

their history, or to minimize the gloom by enl arg­

ing upon the more proud and dazzling hours of

triumph .

It sho11ld g ive us no small amount of pride when

we view the frank and untinted account of our

g rowth given us by Geo~ge Sheetz in the twenty­

fiftll anniversary volume of our history. E very

phase of development has been imparti ally treated.

The dismal hours are there, with no attempt made to gloss them over. Nor are those happy days which brought many of our fondes t dreams to realizat ion unduly enla rged. The author knew the t ruth of the sta tement that the worth of men is shown in the manner in which they overcome ob­stacles as well as in the fact tha t these were sur­mounted.

Our l1i story is a story of a fight and a struggle. Our pride because today we find ourselves high in our j ourney to the peak of achievement is the greater when we turn our eyes down the rugged p ath which we have. traveled.

In the haste to reach the uppermost heights we are often too prone to lose hea1·t over petty obsta­cles which we behold ahead. In such moments as th se we could do no better than take down our

copy of the History and look at the stark pictures

of real obstacles over which we have passed.

As you r ead the story of the founding of Pi Kappa Phi, think just what those hardy pioneers

of ours faced in 1904 ; seven men, isolated in ° state whicl1 had harri ed fraternities out of the realm .. . seven men, guided by the indomitable will of three, beginning a fraternity in a soil hardened by the discouraging breath of the law itself ... Follow their work through to thnt blackes t of periods when the tocsin of death sound· ed for hundreds of their associa tes and fello'1' workers in 1 917- when the World W ar flung itS choking blight full about them.

Turning to p age sixty-fi ve we read: " E xclusive of the three supreme councilmen, ten officers had been elected by the Savannah Convention. During the course of the war, nine of these were called into active service ; eight in the Army and one iJ1

TIIE SCHOLARSHIP records of our leading Senior and Junior scholars who wish to be

members of the group of Pi Kappa Phi Scholars

for 1930 are due now. Many of these records

have already been received and are being care­

fully studied. When it is realized that there are

Probably six hundred or more active Pi Kappa

Phi who are Seniors or Juniors and who are eligi­

ble for consideration for this great fraternal honor,

it is evident that the competition is very keen, par­ticularly since the number of such awards in any one year is limited to nine. However, the maxi­Inurn number of awards has yet to be made for any one year. This is due to the fact that the stand­ards are high and the awards are made on the basis of scholarship only, without regard for the extra­curricular activities of the candidates. This is as it should be and consequently those who receive the highest scholarship honor that Pi Kappa Phi can bestow upon them, may indeed feel justifiably Proud of their records, for, in general, they have succeeded under much stiffer competition than is necessary to attain membership in any of the truly scholarship honor societies on their respective cam­Puses. With the expansion of our fraternity and ~he larger number of candidates to be considered, It is hoped that the maximum number of awards lnay be made this year. In recognition of the honor l1e has brought to himself and to Pi Kappa Phi through his scholarship achievements, each l>i kappa Phi Scholar is presented with the Pi l\appa Phi Pendant, which is a beautiful trophy, Upon the back of which is engraved his name, his chapter name, and the year of the award.

'I'his is the fourth year that these hono'rs have been offered. The first group of Pi Kappa Phi scholars numbered only two, but the 1928 and l!l29 groups had six and four members, respec­tively. The distribution of these Scholars among our chapters is of considerable interest. Beta and Omega chapters each have three members, and the three members from Beta chapter are brothers.

ars have received their awards as Juniors. In

every case they have been outstanding men on their

respective campuses and several of them have rec­ords that are unique in their respective insitutions.

Brother Thomas H. Grafton, Beta, 1927, made an almost perfect scholarsl1ip record during his four

years at Presbyterian College, the highest in its history, and at the same time he was editor of the student paper and general leader on tl1e campus. Brother James T. Jackson, Alpha Eta, 1928, made one of the most brilliant records ever attained at Howard College and was elected president of the student body in 1926 when only seventeen years of age. Brother Russell C. Newhouse, Alpha Nu, 1928, led the entire student body at Ohio State in scholarship for several years, and at the same time was a leader in several campus organizations and served as an undergraduate assistant in elec­trical engineering. The records of the other Pi Kappa Phi Scholars are almost as good. The records of these men justify the high standards demanded for membership among the Pi Kappa Phi Scholars and the attainment of such mem­bership is a distinct honor.

Blanks for the filing of scholarship records may be obtained from the chapter secretaries or from the chairman of the national scholarship commit­tee. Every worthwhile record will be carefully studied and weighted according to the standards of

CONVENTION By WIL LIAM J . B ERRY

ON F RIDAY and Saturday, April fourth and

fifth , the F irst Dist ri ct held its first con­vention at the Alpha Xi chapter house, 33 Sidney Place, Brooklyn, N. Y. F riday afternoon the vis­iting brothers began to d ri f t in . F rom P si came B rothers Robert J . H a rper and J ames P . Dono­van, the official delegates, and B roth e r s J ames J. Creagle and Sidney Skokos; from Alpha Mu, delegates H an ·y M. Rodgers and D avid Por­te r and Brotl1ers John F . Kieser and John A. Schumake1· . They were g reeted by a group of Alph a Xi men, including the a rchon of the cl1 apter , Brother H enry E. Weingartner, and Brother F rank Zeissig, the delegates. The New York Alumni Chapter was represented by Brothers H erbert F. Geier, A. A., and WiJliam J. Berry A. A, The Distri ct Arcl10n, Albert W . Meisel A. A, was also present.

After a pleasant informal bull session , during the course of which the delegates got well acquainted, the crowd adjourned to the L everick Towers Ho­tel for dinner, being j oined by several others. It was Friday and there were thirteen a t table, but no one seemed di sturbed over the fact, and no harm appears to have resulted. L ater in the eve­ning the delegates and some of the other visiting brothers attended the spring dance of the E ve­ning Students' Organization of the Polytechnic (generally referred to as the E . S. 0 .) which was l1 eld in the main ball-room of the Hotel New Yorker. It was very much a Pi Kapp affair. Brother Ralph Chanel was on the committee and in the crowd on the floor ( and it was a crowd) were twelye alumni and sixteen actives of Alph a Xi and eight or nine visiting Pi Kapps.

Saturday morning the convention organized for business . Brother H arper was elected chairman and Brother Porter secreta ry. Among the topics di scussed were expansion within the district, chap­·J;er publica tions, chapter and district publicity,

and rushing. At twelve thirty the offi cial photo· g raph was taken on the steps of the chapter house. Luncheon was served in the dining room of tht Brooklyn Chamber of Commerce which is on the thirteenth floor of a downtown office building· From its many windows the visitors had a wonder· ful view of the Borough of Brooklyn, lower and mid-town Manl1 attan and New York harbor· Mucl1 interes t was shown in a set of la rge scale a ir maps which hung on the walls. Among th; sixteen present at the luncheon was Brother Cor F. Osterg ren, P si, of the New York Alumni ChaP' ter.

Business was resumed at about two-tl1irty. Ott

BROTHER T. J. Payne, Jr. was recently

elected to receive the Earl Carroll Service Key for this year. This is the highest Honor which this Chapter can give a Brother, and the following are some of the rules which govern the awarding of this Key:

"The Earl Carroll Service Key is given by Earl Carroll, '27, to the Alpha Eta Chapter of Pi Kappa Phi to be given by said Chapter to the brother in the chapter who, during his three or four years in the chapter or college, has rendered the most outstanding service to the fraternity. The purpose in making this award is to create a desire to serve the fraternity and to cause the brothers to find some noble way to express that desire. The donor believes that Pi Kappa Phi can be what it should only through loyal service that is rendered it through its members. If the chal­lenge of this little key can in some way urge the brothers that are to follow to serve Pi Kappa Phi in a better way, then its purpose will have been realized.

"The basis for choosing the brother to whom the key shall be awarded shall be nothing but service to the fraternity and especially to the chapter. This service shall include work inside

* Outstanding

* the chapter, in co-operating with the Birmipg· ham Alumni Chapter, and in doing any work 00

the campus that would help the fraternity in aP1 way.

"The brother shall be elected by secret ballot and a three-fourths majority shall be necessarY for election. The Key shall be given each year fot

ro· at least twenty years, except as hereinafter P vided.

"If at any time the chapter thinks that no oPe brother is sufficiently entitled to receive the keY' no award shall be made. To give the key to soJll~ one who is not deserving, though be be the beSd the chapter has that particular year, woul_ cheapen the value of the key and not be in kee~t ing with the purpose for which it is given. Let 1

be said at all times that each brother that b~~ received the key has truly deserved it. Let 1

be an honor in Pi Kappa Phi to be able to wellr it!"

Brother Payne bas been outstanding in College activities as well as in the Chapter. He is 11

Michigan Awaits You, Pi Kapps By J. WILSON RoBINSON I

BROTHERS, Michigan, the Nation's Play-ground will be the mecca of Pi Kapps in

August, 1 931. With the selection of Detroit as the next convention city and the time changed 1rom December to August gives all Pi Kapps, es­pecially the Alumni, an opportunity to plan a wonderful vacation and at the same time attend a wonderful convention.

While you are away on your vacation this sum­mer, brothers, start making plans on taking next summer's vacation in Michigan in August and September just before or after the 1931 conven­tion.

Michigan is a place of scenic harmonies, a region that nature has set aside for itself. At the same time it is the center of the industries which have made Michigan known in every corner of the inhabited globe.

In blossom-time the highways, fields, forests and plains lie heavy with tl1e perfume of 247 varieties of wild flowers, the most prolific wild flower section in the country, if not in the world. Here are the breeding places for hundreds of different species of birds, including the Kirtland Warbler, the early morning operas of woodland choirs of 361 species awaken you as they float skyward to spires of pine, balsam, spruce and fir. If lovely spots lure you, wl1at a playground this is.

Four of the five Great Lakes lap Michigan's shores; a shoreline of 3,120 miles of yellow sand, longer than that possessed by any other state, making safe beaches for children and grown-ups to bathe and play on.

A $250,000,000 l1ighway system leads to 78 state forests, Huron National Forest of 616,000

acres, 67 state par)l:s, 17 fish hatcheries, l 1 game refuges, turbulent rivers, murmuring streams, gay resorts, quiet retreats, 5,000 inland lakes whose breezes relax taut nerves.

The appeal of Michigan is heightened by its rich and colorful historical background. Here the

first white settlers came. Here three nations fought desperately for possession of this juciest of plums after the discovery of the new world. lt

d. ~ was here that Pontiac, the greatest of all In 19

Chiefs .fomented the war in history as "'fbe

Pontiac Conspiracy."

Brothers, these are only highlights of what Vie will have to tell you in later issues of THE S'l'AF

AND LAMP about this wonderful playground. foil will never regret a vacation spent in Micbig1111'

and remember the Detroit Alumni Association js

throwing in as an added attraction, the greatest Pi Kappa Phi Convention you will have ever had the privilege and pleasure to attend. Every minute of your time while in Detroit will be packed full of surprises. You can't afford to miss it.

The Cl1arleston Convention could not ha''e selected a more perfect setting for a Summer coli' vention and vacation, no place offers such induce· ments for complete change, rest and quick up· building of both mind and body. Here, coolf ozone-laded breezes, fragrant with the scent 0

.

the pine and the juniper waft a welcome to a111'1

P' Kapps. Start planning now your Summer v cation; as Amos and Andy would say, "Come to Micl1igan to unlax you rself, if you don't you'll be regusted."

Just to give you an idea of who the Brothers are behind this 1931 Convention, look over th~ following list of members of the Detroit Alu!JlJll Association. Here in Detroit you will find Brothers wl10 hail from the Atlantic to the Pacific, froJll Washington to Florida.

Our present membership consists of 4·0 Brothers from 10 different cl1 apters, and by next Christ!Jl

HITTING the HIGH NOTES Pi Kappa Phi Enriched By Charleston Contest

By W. R. BLALOCK

D ECIDING that they could go

"Piccolo Pete" one better, a bunch of the boys this past Winter got together a flock of high notes and low notes and turned them over to the fraternity in the shape of qu ite a few worthy additions to our stock of songs.

All of which means, when reduced to the lowest common denominator, that the song contest held at the Charleston Convention p roved quite worthy of the faith of Executive­Impresario Leake, who promulgated the idea and who did not a little work in bringing the hidden lyrical talent of the fl'aternity to the fore.

RlCHARfl LIEURANCE

Fit·st Prize

fo r the contest. One of them which received the high compliments of the judges, and which is indeed a Jl]ost

worthy addition to our hymns, was a ritual l1 ymn submitted by J. Cha!ll Freeman, ·wofford. This RequieJll is an outstanding piece of work, and will find its place in the rituals of the fraternity. In the words of the judges, it was an extremely difficult matter to choose the prize winners from a collection which numbered such compositions as a " Drea)l] of Pi Kappa Phi," by Lawrence J. Bolvig, Brooklyn Poly, "In a Land Where Good Fellowship Reigns," bY Donald G. Walters, of Brooklyn

And it also means that now the brothers of tl1e brotherhood can whoop it up with the best when the fra ternity takes to the dance­floor, and can wax romantic and appealing to fair damsels beneath the moon, for we now have as zestful and jazzy a fox-trot as any, and a song which will s tir the hea rt of the coldest co-ed.

All of which means that the first prize of the

J. CHAM FREEMAN

Thi1·d Pt·i::e

contest was g iven to ''I'm Homesick For Pi Kappa Phi," the paragon of all fox­trots, and that the second prize was given to " Pi Kappa Phi Pal," a song which will lie close to the hearts of all , male and female. Dick Lieu­rance, of Nebraska, gets $25 for tl1 e fox­trot, and Howard Up­church, of Auburn, gets $ 10 for the song.

There were five other compositions submitted

Poly, " H ymn to Pi Kappa Phi," bJ: Delbert L. Gideon, of Oklahoma, and " M y PI Kappa Phi Red Rose," by Charles M. Thompson, Georgia T ech. All of these songs will be pronl' inently placed in the new edition of THE soNGS OF PI KAPPA PHI, which is now being coJ11'

piled. J. Cham Freeman, winner of the third prize

with his Requiem, will be the recipient of a copy of t h e new HISTORY AND DI-RECTORY OF PI KAPPA PHI em­bossed with his name. Th e other entrant s will also r eceive a copy of the book. All of them will receive the grateful praise of the membership when tl1e songs are released.

* TH E ST A R A ND LAMP OF PI K A PPA PHI * in Ch 1 I ar eston was made throughout the fraternity. n:nnediately the response was great, surpassing

all exp t · . ec atwns. Songs cannot be knocked off hke novels or short stories . The writer must first :~end days wooing the goddess of inspiration, and

en days and days in getting the inspiration onto Paper.

t was pl anned to have the songs played before the assembled convention, sung by the gathered lllembers, and then judged by acclaim. ·

fiowever, when Ralph Tabor, of Mercer, sat down to the piano and played number after number, it was instantly obvious that a decision would never be reached there. Tabor, a skilled Pianist and radio arti st, re-played the songs, and ~veral of them were sung by picked voices. The " ew York delegation from Brooklyn Poly sang . In a Land Where Good F ellowship Reigns," llllmediately assuring this song of a permanent Plac · h e In t e hearts of the fraternity.

. Voicing the sentiment of the multitude, Execu-hve-I . mpresarw L eake announced that the songs \Vould be held and turned over to a competent committee for careful consideration and final judging.

h· Supreme Treasurer Johnston, no mean musician ll!lself, agreed to arrange for thi s phase. H e took

~~e songs back to West Virginia University with S

1lll and turned them over to Professor Volney W. hephard, head of the Piano Department there.

After a month or two of consideration from all ; ngles the prizes were awarded ' 'I'm Homesick "or Pi Kappa Phi," "Pi Kappa Phi P al ," and Requiem Hymn." "D f ick" Lieurance, composer of "I'm Homesick

or Pi Kappa Phi," seems to come by his talents naturally. H e has a studio in Lincoln, Nebraska, and t

a the present writing has several popular song t· 8 ready for release. His brother, Thurlow

letlrance, also a member of Nu Cl1apter, is the nationa]l k " f th . Y nown composer of By the Waters o . e Mmnetonka," and other Indian music. Dick Is an the extremely likeable chap, and is in charge of

new song book.

Ph~nd Howard Upchurch, author of " Pi Kappa

t 1

Pal." There's a man who got off to a good 8 art B t · ack in the dim days of 1928 there came 0

the Central Office a letter which was signed "A

pledge of Pi Kappa Phi." The letter advised that the writer had written a song for the fraternity which he wished to present fo r consideration if it was allowed. H e was immediately taken up on the proposition, and today we have Brother Up­church 's l1ighly creditabl e entry.

J. Cham Freeman is a well known and extreme­ly eligible young bachelor down in Spartanburg, S. C. His business in life is selling the boys in­surance and acting as chapter adviser to Zeta Chapter, all of which does not prevent his taking time out to produce excellent song and verse.

Members hearing these songs at Charleston ex­pressed the hope and desire that these musicians of ours will find many more golden hours in which to gather together other collections of high and low notes with which to regale the ears of the fraternity . More power to them.

ALPHA Xi PROFESSORS

HONORED

Two of the faculty members of Alpha Xi Chapter l1 ave recently been the recipients of special honors. Professor Erick H ausman, H ead of the D epartment of Phys ics, has been made Dean of Graduate Studies a t the Polytechnic Institute of Brooklyn. Dean Hausman has been chairman of the faculty committee in charge of graduate work at the Institute ever since its in­ception and its development and progress have been largely the result of hi s wise planning and careful supervi sion. Incidentally, Brother H am­mond, H ead of the Department of Civil En­gineering, and Brother Berry, H ead of the D e­pa rtment of Mathematics, are members of the committee which will continue to function under Dean H ausman's leadership.

Professor Clyde C. Whipple, of the Electrical Engineering Department, has been appointed Visiting Professor of Electrical Engineering at Princeton University. The Corporation of the Polytechnic have granted him a year's leave of absence so that he may accept the appointment. Brother Whipple will, however, continue to give one course at the Polytechnic.

John " Dodo's" class has checked off the primary training ships ( PT3's ) and are now sla ted to spend four months on service ships, Liberty motored jobs, D e H avilands ( DHs) and Douglas 0 2K's . Slightly better tl1an fifty p er cent of the orig inal class has made the grade to thi s point.

New instructors and new g roups a re assigned for the second step. A little dual and tl1 e boys (now upperclassmen ) solo the Dh's and 02's . Af­ter fl ying these ships Upperclassman J obn Cadet, wonders how he ever called tl1 e PT an airplane, these new ships a re the berries with some 420 H. P. in place of the 225 or so which pulled the PT's . The work for the next four months p ar­allels that of the first four quite closely, the differ ­ence being in the ships flown.

Eight months have passed and the record check­off arrives . Again some boys lose out, hard to take it this stage of the game with Kelly only a week or two away. Formation flying and cross country flying now appears on the menu and all the boys look upon thi s la tter as the cream of the whole course. One day they hop from Riverside to Brawley, thence to San Diego, and r eturn to March Field. Another day carri es them over the Moj ave D esert, through the T ehachapi Pass to B akersfi eld ; recrossing the Moj ave to Barstow and returning to March Field.

Graduation day comes at l as t and that same night sees the lucky .boys on their way to the Air Corps Advanced Flying School at Kelly Field, San Antonio, their one goal throughout the primary course.

Training a t Kelly is di vided into four specialized sections, viz: Attack, Bombardment, P ursuit, and

Observat ion. New arrivals from the prirnar)' schools a re promptly ass igned to the various sec· tions. Each section l1 as its own specific type of tra ining . Pursuit carries out combat and tactical formation missions with their speedy single seater Boeing PW's. Attack with its low flying ren­dezvous, and attack missions, fli es that sterling ship, the Curtiss Falcon (A3) powered with the ace of American water cooled engines, the CurtisS D-1 2. ( The writer was a member of the Attack section. ) The bombardment with their two rno· tored Keystone Lb5's have their offensive and de· fense formation s camera obscura miss ions. ThC obse rvers with their 02's have their reconnaissance missions. Whereas cross countrys in primary days were an event to look f01·ward to- nearly everY mission at Kelly entails to some degree or other a cross country hop. There are numerous spe· cific cross countrys in addition. N umerous such during the course are climaxed by a real hop near the end of the course. In the las t class it was at· tack which had the most lengthy hop; nearly t\1'0

thousand miles covering virtually all the rirn of T exas, a la rge portion of Oklahoma and a triP of New Mexico. Incidently there's some good turkey buzzard country on the hop from Ft. Sill, Oklahoma, to El P aso and similarlv between El

• t P aso and San Antone. Tl1e buzzards out in tha desola te and forsaken region are quick to detecl the sound of a missing motor.

An account of the years training which ignored night fl ying would be far from complete. To the writer that was one of the most interesting fell' ture of the course, particularly the night cross country missions, p articipated in by all sectionS· Night formation flying was likewise a part of the training. For sheer pleasure there is nothing

equal to night flying. To fl y in a Kelly Field graduation r eview hll,:

no participant forgets. Presentation of reserve

two d an so we made our visit complete. ll.elat·

a~> . lVes are bade goodbye and good luck and .,a1n , t'r ve are on our way to the birthplace of our

bu aternity. Cities like Akron, Cleveland, Harris­rg, Pittsburgh are soon passed by and we are

in Washington, D. C. There are so many places and things which we wish to see that we become

dizzy at the thought of getting them all accom­

plished. A guide assures us that he will show us

all there is to be seen in four hours so we jump into

l1is waiting machine and visit in rapid succession

the capital building, the White House, Washing­

ton Monument, Lincoln Memorial, Arlington Cem­

etery, Smithsonian Institute, Treasury Building,

Pan-American building, Ford Theatre, where Lin­

coln was shot, Washington's old home, and numer­

ous other places of interest. How much more in­

teresting history must be to school cl1ildren who

have the privilege of visiting these landmarks of United States' growth. The Congressional Li­brary claims much of our time with its beautiful construction, its exhibits of original paintings, books and music.

Time for convention is rapidly drawing near so we reluctantly leave this beautiful city and travel on toward Charleston. A one-day stop is made at Richmond, Virginia, so that we can see the charm of southern homes with their old Colonial pillars.

On the train again the wheels sing their merry tune as the rails click. In a few hours now we will be "Home" to pay our respects to those cour­ageous founders wl10 saw a need and l1ad the strength of their convictions to carry out plans to meet that need. We go into communion with ourselves and wonder if the founders wl10 are still with us will be disappointed with us or whether tney will be proud and glad to shake our hands and call us "brother."

With our arms filled with luggage we must pre­sent a sight as we troup into the Frances Marion :Hotel. Brothers meet us and pass along a welcome whih rings true. We breathe a sigh of relief as we feel assimilated into the fellowship and realize that we are acceptable.

Convention itself is a merry whirl of greeting, bull-fests, meetings, ice water, dances, receptions, business, women, sightseeing trips, dedications, memorial services, roundtable discussions and ban-

[ 2 1 ]

quets all filled with merriment, fellowship and pride.

Why can't we have a convention every year so tl1at the chapters farther away from the home place will have more to tie to. It is the purpose and the result of a convention to acquire that feel­ing of unity between the chapters themselves, and between chapters, Central Office, and the Supreme Council.

Tl1e progress of tlle fraternity is assured with such capable men in control as A. Pelzer Wagener, E lmer Turnquist, Howard Leake, Leo Pou and otbers who l1 elp to steer our ship. The foresight and constructive criticism of the living founders naturally has its tremendous bearing on our fate. They have put us through the dark days and so are versed to help us in these brighter days by fore­warning us of the pitfalls that may lie in the path.

All of you have read about convention itself many times so I will not dwell upon it any more than to say "DON'T MISS THE CONVEN­TION IN DETROIT IN 1931."

Tl1e trip home is a trip filled with memories. Each event again comes before you and is lived many times over. For the first time since I be­came a member I begin to feel the power of size, begin to see beyond my own chapter. Names come back to you and you swell with pride at being able to call Bill Garibaldi, Howard Davis, Ross Humes, and many others, your brothers. You are proud you belong to a fraternity composed of such men who are doing their utmost to make it the best fraternity in the world.

Home again and then come in seemingly end­less numbers the questions. Each night finds my room filled with brothers anxious to find out about the southern hospitality, about the Founders, about other chapters and how we compare witb them. These and many other questions keep the lights burning long past midnight until finally we all give up and go to bed for a rest and a chance to think up other questions~

It is a great experience, never miss it . if you can help it. You'll find that it gives you an in­

sight into the working of your fraternity which

you can never get by confining your interest to the local chapter.

PAGES FROM OUR HISTORY (Continued from Page 10)

upon all sources of information. While Pi Kappa Phi is relatively a young fraternity the historians of the future will find a splendid foundation for their work in the story of the first twenty-five years so carefully prepared by Mr. Sheetz.

While no attempt is made to present tbe detailed history of each of the fraternity's forty chapters the story of the founding, the government, conven· tions and publications of the general body is pre· sented in interesting readable form. The illustru· tions include personalities, scenes and groups co!l' nected with history of Pi Kappa Phi witb copieS of minutes, chapters and early records.

The catalogue lists the membership by chapters, geographically and alphabetically and the material is printed in a very accessible manner. The use of bold face sets the names out plainly and a!l unusual feature is the date of initiation of each man. A complete biographical record is also in· eluded. We have never seen a better directory.

Physically the book is an attractive one. Printed on book paper, the illustrations are inserted o!l high grade enamel and the bulk has been kept down so that the volume is of useable size. It iS bound in silk cloth and stamped in gold and thC typography is modern without being flash y.

Pi Kappa Phi has achieved a valuable asset jJI the publication of this book. It is indeed a credit to them and to fraternity literature.-G. B., Jr.

Therefore, it was with somber eyes that I looked upon the Great Divide, musing at the time that the Greatest Divide was when the railroad says:

"How much money have you? I will divide with you by taking 90 per cent and leaving you 10 per cent." (Maybe that is an application of the 90 per cent perspiration and 10 per cent in­spiration adage.)

It was great to see Walt Jones in the station at Seattle and thereafter sob forth my woes on his shoulder. \Valt was very comforting.

Leftenant Walter Jones of the Naval Reserve, a pilot of hours, sight for feminine eyes in his uniform, has the air bacterium. Not content with the presidency of the Willis-Jones Machinery Company, he is planning divorce in order to pursue the attractive second love-air transporta­tion.

Shortly Walt informed me that the estimable and esteemed J. Fl'iend Day would be pleased to see me in Vancouver regarding a certain promise he made to the convention assembled at Birming­ham, which, incidentally, bears every indication of being about to be fulfilled. Having heard much of that " land of the free" and mecca of those citizens of the United States who have voted for modification in the Literary Digest hay vote, in the words of pastors who have been given the invitation to new pastures, I accepted the call with all due humility and pleasure, only, after, how­ever, giving that group of men's men at Alpha Delta the glad l1and.

In spite of the fact that I caused .T. Friend to break an engagement to play his beloved game of golf, he was warm in his greeting. But that is he himself-genial, affable, courteous, refreshingly original and individual.

Th two days spent with l1im and the men who make up the local that plans to petition Pi Kappa Phi were pleasant indeed. I am all for the Canucks. Yet in view of their environment of towering, wooded and snow-capped peaks, glit-

the institution in which it was made. On account of the different grading systems in use a t the va­rious institutions this requires considerable time and frequently considerable correspondence with coll ege and university deans and registra rs. Ac­cordingly, r ecords should be fil ed promptl y with the Chairman of the Schol arship Committee. Chap­ter Advisers are requested to co-operate with the chapter officers in securing the complete r ecords from the college records, in order that each candi­date and his chapter may receive tl1 e consideration and recognition due them.

((The Student's College R ecord as a Forecast of Success,

The above is the title of a most interesting study

by Colonel R . I. Rees, Assist ant Vice-President

of the Ameri can T elephone and T elegraph CoJJl' p any, which Appeared in the M cGraw-Hill Book

N otes, Fall, 1929. Following a re several para' g raphs which a re of considerable interes t, but, if

possible, the complete a rticle should be read.

" It can be safely stated, it is thought, that par· ti cipation in extra-curri cular activiti es h as not as

much good influence on the student's future as 3

good r ecord of scholarship. As an illustra tion of this, in schola rship we find that men in the first

t enth of their class, who constituted some 15 per

cent of the g roup studied, obtained a median salarY of 40 p er cent more than the median of the whOle group at twenty-five years out of college. M en of "substanti al campus achievement" constituted 2° p er cent of the g roup studied a t twenty-fi ve years

out of college, and obtained a median salary 2° p er cent above the median for the whole g rouP· On this basis only, it appears that "substantial campus acl1ievement" does have some ra ther defi· nite bearing on progress in the B ell System, but

tha t its influence is not so great a s that of high

grade schol arship.

* * * * * * "Naturally, when an employer examines an ap·

plicant, the qu stion uppermost in l1is mind is the man 's r ecord of previous performance. In giving weight to scholarship, he concludes that it is e,d·

dence of how well the y oung man p erformed 011

hi s previous job. The evidence is, that there arc

real values in this conclusion. Seeker s of J11C11

of high quality have always g iven some considera·

tion and weight to participation in campus ac·

tivities as indicating some qualiti es of leadershiP

and a development of the social instinct. Earnings

indicate a young man's determination to get ahead

in the world. All of these are indices, but should

be evaluated in accordance with their importance·

From the viewpoint of the s tudent, it seems clear

that he should so budget his time that he g ive ]liS

major attention and concentration to the important

obj ective of his college life-education- and relate

llis other obligations in a proper balance to thiS

main obj ective. This is an individual problelfl,

certainly appreciate a line to 8 Perkins Hall, Cambridge, Mass.

Well, the first event of the social whirl for the boys was a theatre party-dinner at Durgin Park, Boston's famous old eating place, followed by tl1e season's version of Earl Carroll's Vanities, l10t from Broadway.

Then came December 10. The group met for a Founders' Day dinner at the Commander Hotel in Cambridge. There was no official program, ex­cept the menu, but it was a thorougllly enjoyable evening. In lieu of speeches and toasts, Brothers Warren and Alderman regaled the company with stories and other sorts of near-humor .

The intermission for Christmas followed. Three of the faithful made the long trip to Charleston for the Convention. Brother Alderman rode his railroad pass, while Brothers Derrick and Hol­combe, not being in on the graft, made the trip in their thirty-dollar Ford, "Hope."

Shortly after Christmas vacation, a couple of the brothers invited the bunch over to their suite for a smoker. Pretzels were served, but beer was neither present nor accounted for. At the smoker, plans were made for a dinner at the Faculty Club of the Harvard Business School.

Brother Alderman arranged tl1e dinner, and

gave us a real treat. His selection of menu was

excellent, and l1is selection of waitresses was · fair

to medium. Immediately preceding the dinner,

the brothers assembled at a Cambridge Studio for

the group picture. Two of the number were un­

able to be present: Brother Spruill and a previous

engagement, and the girls just won't let Brother

Dillon alone.

The dinner is the most recent development to

date. Plans are now under way for Ladies' Night,

which will be the season's swan song. This

promises to be the biggest and, of course, the best

of the year, and a fitting finale to a year of good

fellowship among the Harvard Pi Kapps.

* TH E ST A R AN D L A MP 01~ PI KAPPA PHI * FORDHAM WINS FELLOWSHIP

AT YALE

By J . H. ANDERSON, .Jn.

AF T E R running away with all the honors of

the law school, J eff. B . Fordham, Vance Inn of the Unive rsity of N orth Carolina, received -~h e

even higher distinction of being awarded the Ster­ling Research Fellowship a t the Yale L aw School, over a large number of other applicants.

The award was a recognition of Brother Ford­ham's excellent work for the p ast two years on the Nor th Carolina L aw Review and his scl10las­tic achievements. H e was Editor-in-chief of the R eview, and won the Hill prize for the best work of tl1 e year. At the last University commence­ment, he graduated from the law school with two degrees-.J .D. and A.M. in political science. An honor man of his class, he was admitted to mem­bership in the Order of the Coif.

As histori an of Vance Inn, he was active in Phi D elta Phi for three years. During this time he also held an offi cial position as assistant to the dean of students of the University.

Since hi s undergraduate days, .Jeff. has lost none of his versatility. His continued athleti c prowess was demonstra ted by his winning the Decathalon Championship in the University track meet for two years. As an underg raduate he held the state record for the j avelin throw, and was a member of the university football team.

Brother Fordham was born in the year 1906,

the son of Mr. and Mrs. C. C. Fordham, of Greensboro, N . C. H e entered the University and received his A.B. degree with the class of 1926. An all-round student, hi s undergradua te distinctions included : Order of the Grail, Pres i­dent of the Junior Class, President of the student body, and membership in the honorary Senior Order of the Golden Fleece. In 1926 he was awarded the Bryan Prize, established in 1903 by t he la te William . J ennings Bryan, for the best t hesis in Political Science, the subj ect being "'Student Government at the University of North 'Carolina," to the success of which l1 e was a sub­:stanti al contributor during his college career. H e ·was a member of Phi Beta Kappa, with second

honors of hi s class, and of Pi Kappa Phi social fraternity.

J eff. is another proof that "still water runs deep ." Underneath the exterior of brilliant ability there lies, for anyone who l1 as been associated with him in work or play, a human warmth, a keen wit, and, speak it softly, favor with fa~r ladies . (Biographical sketch which appeared ''11

With seventeen active men on the chapter roll, Alpha Alpha is bringing to a close what is believed to have been one of the most successful years in

:he ohapter's history. Only two brothers will be ;st by graduation in June. They are Billy

torey and Billy Etheridge. Brother Max Chap­lllan completed his work for a degree at the end ~f the Winter term and will also receive his degree In June.

ON WITH OMEGA

By E. T. SHERWOOD

THIRTEEN Freshman were initiated into Omega chapter April 13. Their names are: Henry G. Thoeming, Chicago Heights, Ill.; Alfred L. Herr, Chicago Heights, Ill.; Solan S . Jackman, Chicago, Ill.; Warren T. Willis, Chicago, Ill.; Vernon J. Pease, Goshen, Ind.; Charles Isaacs, Chicago Heigllts, Ill.; Herold E. Miller, Cedarburg, Wis.; Herold Bendeau, Rocky River, Ohio; Elliott N. Franklin, Indianapolis, Ind.; Frederick 0. Grie­wonk, La Port, Ind.; Richard J. Golmar, Elyria, Ohio; Charles W. Myers, Cham bridge City, Ind.; and Bruce G. Morris, Greenwood, Ind.

Well, how does Omega stand jn connection with athletics, honoraries, and activities? She is far from ashamed of her attainments. Gordon Chap­man, a pledge, won his numerals in Freshman basketball. "Slim" Miller won first in 100 and 220 yard dash, "AI" Herr won second in 220

low hurdles, and "Chuck" Isaacs won second in the broad jump in the inter-class meet. "Joe" Clark and Clarence Field are still going in base­ball. "Joe" Nichols was elected secretary of the Local Branch of the A.S.M.E., and we have three members up for election to offices in the A.I.E.E.

Now comes the honoraries which Pi Kapps rate this Spring.

"Chet'' Langston came home the other evening wearing the Ceres colors, which represents tl1e general agriculture honorary. Brother Gedrge Fassnacht made Chi Epsilon, honorary civil, and is elected to Tau Beta Pi, all engineering honor­ary. "Jim" Beggs made Eta Kappa Nu last Fall and is also elected to Tau Beta Pi. "Art" Bost­ater and "Jeff" Gilbert each made Eta Kappa Nu this Spring and "Art" is likewise elected to Tau Beta Pi. "Pete" Sherwood made Eta Kappa Nu this Spring and is elected to Tau Beta Pi. And Brother George Fortune rated Sigma Delta Chi, honorary journalistic fraternity. Along with these honoraries we find that "Jack" Robinson is en­tertaining the Harlequin Show goers with l1is fancy dancing, and "Cliff" Markley, a member of Phi chapter in Tulsa, is also demonstrating his ability as an actor. Brother Hiatt was made sub­scription manager of the Purdue Engineer.

BRIGHT OUTLOOK FOR ALPHA LAMBDA

ALPHA L ambda began this year without the assistance and fellowship of Dr. Pigott, whose resignation of his position here for the superin­tendency of a lwspital in New J ersey is regretted.

REVIEW OF ALPHA ETA ACTIVITIES By JAM F. S ALLEN

THoSE pledged a t the first of the yea r are Almgren, Jones, Trammel, Griffin, Joe H all, L ee H all, Flemming, Ingram, Carl P ark, Nelson and Moore. L ate1· pledges are Wortl1y, Pl1illips and Burns.

Those initia ted for this year are Smallwood, Stuart, Nelson, Moore, Jones, Almgren, Joe Hall, L ee H all, Flemming, P ark and Cross.

Among those initiated at the first of school was Brother John L eland Cross of New York. Brother Cross was one of tl1 e founders of the old local Psi D elta, and was formerly vice-president of the City National Bank and Trust Company of New

York and is now connected with Carter & Com· p any, Bondsmen. H e expressed a desire to be initia ted into Pi Kappa Phi at his Alma Mater, and a trip South offered him this opportunity.

It seems that Alpha E ta Chapter has been leading a t Howard during the p ast year : Brother B ascom Woodwa rd has just fini shed his te rm of office as pres ident of the student body.

Brother Robert P adgett, who is now treasurer of the student body, is making a strong bid for business manager of the Iiot~Jard Crimson, the weekly p aper.

Two of our men, Brother Moore and Pledge Phillips, a re taking very active p arts on the de· ba ting team. We can also boas t of a member on the Student Council, Brother Seymour. Brother Gay is Vice-Pres ident of the Sophomore Class .

Our chapter is not without musical talent. We are represented in the College Glee Club by Brothers P ark and Fleming and Pledges PhillipS and Griffin. Brother Allen is a member of the Howard College " Boiler Makers" Orchestra and of the College Band. Brothers J ames Crow and Collier Crow are members of the Band.

In the way of a thletics, Alpha Eta has been well represented. Three of our men, Brothers Rob· erts, Strickland and Mann won their places on the va rsity football team. Brother Strickland also won a pl ace on the basketball team.

Those playing varsity baseball are Brothers Goodwin and McD anal. For the Freshman teanl we have Brothers Joe and L ee Hall, Fleming, and Pledges Trammell and Ingram.

We are now planning our Spring party, which is to take place April 25. This is an annual affair a t which time we celebrate our initia tion into Pi Kappa Phi. At this party we expect to have an afternoon picnic and end it with a good dance. This is a pri vate affair and is to be at· tended only by members of our chapter and their immediate friends.

Our chapter now boas ts of having the highest scholastic average of all the fraternities on the campus.

We lose by graduation this year some of the most prominent on the campus. Brother Cook is leav ing us and will continue his studies at the Louisville Seminary. Brother Woodward leaves

ALPHA ZETA BUILDS

By RAPHAEL GnENO

ALPHA Zeta builds its chapter home this year. When June rolls arotmd, and the boys sell their textbooks to get enough gold to go home, the ground will have already been broken. And when they trek in next Fall, they will behold a vision realized.

In connection with our building project, great credit is due to our faculty members: Prof. T . .J. Starker, and Dr. N. H. Cornish, who are giving much of their time in rounding out the plans. Prof. Starker will undertake the actual building of our new home. Robert Peacock and Howard Davis, Archon and Manager respectiv ly, are also performing admirably in getting the project under way.

Alpha Zeta's new home will shelter a substantial number of athletes of proven ability. Frank Little, who won his numerals as Freshman full­back, is one of the best backfield men ever to enter Oregon State. Ruff Dunn also easily earned his

On next year's chapter roll, the names of Bill Ruhman and Ranson Meinke will be missing, for they will be marching militantly down the highway of life with their college diplomas.

Ruhman was one of the Oregon State's leading foresters, and a member of Xi Sigma Pi; while Meinke, who is a political science major, con­cluded a colorful political career as Student Body President. Both men have served as chapter Archon.

in: Wilbur Chapman, '30; David Hayden, '31;

Albin Telford, '33; Edward Schewe, '33; Hugh Hotchkiss, '32; Lloyd Poole, '32; and John Gib­son, '33, together with Joe E. Randall who was initiated on behalf of Alpha Xi.

Along with Spring comes increased interest in graduation. Much to our regret, we are to lose nine of our brothers. Lester Wetmore, Ph.C. in Pharmacy; Sidney Miller, B.S. in Electrical En­gineering; George Lindenmulder, B.S. in Chem­istry; Elston Larson, B.A.; Theo Lewandowski, B.S. in Pharmacy; Vernon Hawkins, B.S. in Civil Engineering; Clarence Cutler, B.A.; and Millard Newland, B.S. in Aeronautical Engineering, will leave in June. Edward Jackson graduated in February with a B.S., and is now working with the Consumers Power Company of Jackson, Michigan.

Henry Pullen was elected to Rho Chi, Honorary Pharmacy Society.

Jed Maebius, who was our representative at the convention, came back to us just full of ideas. These are gradually being put into operation.

Edward Jackson had his name engraved upon the Chapter Scholarship Cup which is awarded each year to the one having the highest grades of the men living in the Chapter House. The pres­entation of this cup by the Detroit Alumni Chap­ter, is but one of the expressions of interest which is shown by that body in the activities of our chap­ter.

All of you by this time are aware that Detroit is going to be the location of the next convention. It is our sincere wish that many of you may be able to visit our chapter.

Foremost on the calendar is spring initiation which will be held during the early part of May while the organization of a Mother's Club of Pi

Kappa Phi in the state of Florida is another illl' portant and vital project.

A Jacksonville chapter of Pi Kappa Phi mothers has already been organized and active participa­tion by its membership has had its effect up011

Alpha Epsilon chapter in tllat it has offered stimulation and enthusiasm in perfecting a state organization.

The purpose of the mothers clubs is to interest and acquaint mothers of Pi Kappa Phi's with the work and ideals of the chapter.

Brother George S. Coulter of Jacksonville, con­ceived the idea of the mother's club and haS worked wholeheartedly with members of the Alpha Epsilon mother's club committee in establishing the initial club.

Since the last edition of the Star and LamP' a general student body election placed two roelll' hers of Alpha Epsilon in office. Brother LaW' renee Walrath, chapter treasurer, was elected to the Honor Court and is slated to become chancel· lor, and Brother Carey Thomas, chapter secretarY, was voted a member of the Athletic Council.

Brothers Walrath and Thomas have also had otl1er honors conferred upon them as they were 1

recently initiated members of Blue Key, national honorary leadership fraternity. Brother KerJllit Black was also extended a bid to Blue Key.

Brother Carey Thomas was recently initiated into Sigma Delta Chi, national honorary profes· sional fraternity. Brother Thomas more recentlY was elected to an office in the local Sigma Delta Chi cl1apter.

Brother Kermit Black, captain of the 1930 var: sity baseball squad is carrying the Pi Kappa ph• colors in varsity sports this season. BrothCr Spurgeon Cherry, freshman athlete is performing with the yearling nine as first baseman. Brother Cherry cru,ptained the freshman basketball fire and was alternate captain of the football elevell· He is one of the best left end prospects for tbC varsity team next season. Neophyte Joe Jenkins, erstwhile freshman football fullback is a star member of the freshman track and field squad.

Brother Laurie Tomlinson, Alpha Epsiloll' archon, was elected treasurer of the Liberal part~'; campus political organization, and was also naJllec on the nominating committee of that party.

The recent visit of Howard Leake, executive secretary, to the Wasl1ington chapter was one of the most significant events in our history. Every man in the chapter feels that the connection, though r egrettably short, has established a new and stronger bond between Alpha Delta and the national organization. In a material way, Howard was also of benefit to us. He brought his knowl­edge and experience to bea r on our problems, and his efforts in this direction are certain to bear fruit in the future effici ency of this chapter's manage­ment.

SPRING ACTIVITIES AT Xi

WITH the ushering in of the Spring term on the Roanoke Campus came also a renewal of the vigorous program which l1ad marked tl1e activi­ties of Xi during the Fall term.

The :first, and as yet the foremost, activity of the Spring was the dinner dance given in con­junction with Rho and the Roanoke Alumni

[ 3 7 J

* THE STAR AND LAMP OF PI KAPPA PHI * Chapter at Hotel Roanoke, March 19. This was a formal occasion at which the music was rendered by the North Carolina "Tarheels." This proved to be a most elaborate and enjoyable affai1· and was attended by alumni from all over the state as well as the members of the two active cl1apters. Next in importance to the dinner dance was a buffet dinner l1eld April 15, for the Alumni in Roanoke and Salem. Following the dinner was a business meeting at which time the officers of the Alumni Chapter were elected for the Spring term as well as plans fornmlated for the "Get-To­gether" Dance to be given during :finals.

A 1·esume of the Campus activities shows Xi still . participating in a program of varied and wide range. Brother Caughman is a member of the debating team. Brothers Caughman and McAfee as leaders of the Easter .Dances help in giving Xi its prominence among the German Club activities. Brothers Banner and Burch, as mem­bers of the tennis squad, and Brother Craft as a member of the Freshman track team give Xi its representation on the Spring Sport's program.

Tl1e recent appointment of Gordon C. White as head of the Athletic Department at Roanoke Colleges makes Xi extremely proud of her loyal Alumnus. Coach White was one of the stalwart members of this chapter during her earlier days and has since proven himself to be an able athletic director.

The recent pledging of Raymond Kerlin makes the only addition to the Chapter during the Spring.

A resume of varsity athletics: Brother Young was outstanding as quarterback on the gridiron; Roberts and Adair added one more successful season to their basketball career; and Roberts and Young are showing up well on the diamond. In track we are ably represented by Grafton and

Kennedy. In addition to the duties of Freshman track

manager, Brother Kennedy was recently elected Business Manager of the Blue Stoclcing, the weekly college paper. He has been elected to the Sigma Upsilon, national honorary literarY fraternity.

NEWS FROM KAPPA

By WILLIAM E. BoBBITT and ADRIAN N. DANIEL, Jn.

THE following appeared in the "Daily Tarheel," our campus publication.

"Announcement yesterday of the appointment of A. K. Smith and Walter Hoyle, Carolina Law students, to research fellowships at Columbia and Yale Universities for the next year, is the latest of a number of high honors which have come the way of the University school of law.

Kappa Letter Men

"J. B. Fordl1am, who graduated with lwnors

last year, is the present holder of a Sterling Re­

search Fellowship at Yale, but Smith's appoint­

ment marks the first time that a Carolina law student l1as ever been awarded a research fellow­

ship at the Columbia University school of law.

"Both fellowships carry substantial stipends for

advanced research in the law.

"Hoyle, who goes to Yale, was faculty research

assistant to Professor M. T. Van-Hecke. Smith

was the student editor-in-chief of this year's Uni­

versity of North Carolina Law Review, and both

men were among the leading students in the third­year class."

Both Hoyle and Fordham are Pi Kapps, the

former coming to us from Gamma in 1927. Since

Brother Hoyle affiliated with Kappa Chapter, he

has taken an active part in his fraternity, as well as l1i s work.

Pi Kappa Phi has always had outstanding men in the University law school. Indicative of this

[ 4 1 J

* THE STAR AND LAMP OF PI KAPPA PHI

fact, are the honors bestowed upon Brothers Fordham and Hoyle and the number of brothers who recently passed the North Carolina bar. They were Brothers Hoyle, Powell, Glenn, and Gl10lson, as shown in the accompanying snap­shot. Brother Powell is another Pi Kappa trans­fer coming to us from Epsilon.

Four Brothers Passing N. C. Bar

Kappa boasts of several brothers who take an active part in the athletic realm of the University. Brothers wearing tl1e University of North Caro­lina monogram are: Brown, Rand, Gholson, Per­kins, Gilbreath, and Glenn. Brothers P erkins and Gholson received their letters in the gym. Brother P erkins was an instructor in 1926-27-28, and Brother Gholson is the present Freshman in­structor.

Playing their first varsity football this year, Brothers "Red" Gilbreath and Theron Brown showed up exceptionally well. "Red" hails from Wichita Falls, Texas. While at the University of Oklahoma in the Fall of 1928, "Red," with a friend, had a hunch they wanted to come East. So this is where he finally landed. Theron is not only gifted with football prowess but in addition is the most outstanding weight man of the Carolina Track team. In the first track meet of the year Brother Brown was high score man.

Brother Glenn received his monogram two years ago. At that time he was man~ger of track, president of the Y. M. C. A., member of the Grail, and of the Senior Order of Golden Fleece.

These lusty athletes are shown in the accom­panying snapshot taken on the steps of our new home.

The most outstanding man on the Carolina Track team, without question, is Brother Charlie Farmer. Charlie is only a Sophomore, and as his achievements are in a Spring sport, he does not as yet wear the U. N. C. monogram. In the Southern Conference Charlie has perhaps the bright­est future of all track men, he has already broken several Carolina, State and Southern Conference records unofficially. In a recent track meet with Georgia Tech, Charlie easily captured first place in the 100

and 220 yards events. His

opposition in these events con­

sisted of Ed Hamm, holder of

the Southern Conference

records and world's champion

broad jumper.

For the past few weeks the campus has beell sizzling with politics, in which Kappa · took all active part. These elections marked the )]lost dramatic and fervent political campaign ever staged before on the campus of the University of North Carolina. Both men run by Kappa were elected to their respective offices. Theron BroWil was elected president of the rising Junior ClaSS· Pledge Harper Barnes will represent the rising Sophomore Class on the student council througb his victory.

We are also hoping to capture intra-)Jlural honors in baseball this Spring. This champion' ship was won by Kappa in 1927, and we ha''e already won the first game of this season.

We had the pleasure of having with us fo~ dinner the other night Brother William Olsen an wife of the University faculty. Brother Olsell joined the faculty six years ago, and since thD; time has gained many friends in the faculty an

d r· student body. Professor Olsen spent his un e graduate days at Cornell with Psi chapter.

By T. N. Huno, '31

Dunn~·o May members of Alpha Theta Chapter at M:i I. S b c ligan tate College, East L ansing, cele-tlrated the fifth anniversary of the installment of

Je chapter into Pi Kappa Phi.

S I~ the Spring of 1924 the Orphic Literary ocrety d 'd d I t' ec1 to petition Pi Kappa Phi. At t 1at

b'll'le the society included twenty-four active mem-ers and ll I ' th a sma 1st of alumni, due to the fact

activit' f fi •cs o the group. A formal petition was nal!y prepared and submitted the cl;arter was g~nkd d . . ' h

Ph~ince its b ginning as a chapter of Pi Kappa f

1' Alpha Theta has achieved progress worthy

0f mention. From an initial active membership

0 44 t . 0 a total membership of I 82, has meant the •nitiat· 'I' •on of an average of 18 meo each year. . he Chapter house was compl etely remod led •n the · stu wmter of 1927, sleeping quarters and two e dy rooms on the third floor being added. Pres-

b ot, one block from our present property has een 1 Purchased, a finance plan l1as been formu-ated

e and approved, and building operations are Xpected t b . c o egm as soon as the present property an be disposed of.

. Throughout the past five years it has been the a,lll of h ll1 t e members to choose new men who

easured t . l . . c s r~et y to p, Kapp Ideals and who were c:~able of balancing high scholarship with ex­th ence in ex tra -curricula activities. R suits of en~ efforts in thi s direction are indicated by pres­Pr chapt r activities . Of 84 active members at

three major publications offices, and several class offices are all indicati ve of Alpha Theta's activity.

To four alumni and faculty members, as well as the co-operation from the Detroit Alumni chapter and our distri ct Archon, J. Wilson Robinson, goes much of the credit for the accomplishments of the chapter. E. D. Clifford, chapter adviser; Prof. Alex L aurie, who recently removed to Ohio State Un iversity; and Prof. L. N. Fields and Dr. L. B. Sholl, faculty members, have all been in­strumental in forwarding the welfare of the so­ciety and giving to the I imit of their r sources and ability.

F ew engineers at Michigan State l1old member­ship in Phi Lambda T au and Tau Beta Pi, local and national honorary engineering fraternit!ies, but that is a distinction held by " Deke" Dearing, '81, who was initiated into the two fraternities in two successive weeks last term.

A total of ten honorary fraternities are rep re­sented at the Alpha Theta Chapter house. Men who have achieved this di stinction are: K. A. Von Voigtlander, Xi Sigma Pi ; A. J. Wangcman, Phi Lambda T au; R. W. D ea ring, Tau Beta Pi and Phi Lambda T au; K. H. J epson, Scabbard an l Blade; L. A. Da vt:nport, Pi Delta Epsilon and Alpha Zeta; T. N.

* THE STAR AND LAMP OF PI KAPPA PHI * were: Kenneth Eldred, Paul Potter, Ronald Smith, and Robert Titus. After an enjoyable week for the new members made possible by the initiation committee, all attended a three-course banquet at the Union Building. H ere Brother Bellinger acted as toastmaster, Brother Albe Munson gave the welcoming speech, and Paul Potter, one of our new members, responded. The charge was read by our chapter adviser, Brother E. D. Clifford.

Our Winter term formal was the talk of the campus and one of the highlights of the season's social activities at Michigan State. We're starting the Spring term off right with an open house April 19. But all of these parties and dances don't keep us from cracking a textbook once in a while, and as proof of the fact, Brothers Dearing, Hurd, D avenport, Wangeman, Coss, and Titus made the honor roll last term.

Brother "Jumbo" Kahl continues to win base­ball games for M. S. C., his latest victims having been the University of Cincinnati and the Uni­versity of Chicago, while Brother Crooks is out for varsity football practice this Spring. Brother H endee won his varsity award in track last week when he hurled the javelin to win first place in a dual meet with the University of D etroit, while Brother Fields was winning his letter in the pole vault at the same meet.

After a stiff battle at the all-college polls, Vic lteefer succeeds Brother Davenport as business manager of the Michigan Agriculturist which

Brother Hurd has edited during the past year.

Brother Hurd is also president of Alpha Zeta,

honorary agricultural fraternity, editor of our

own Stater, and is slated to be editor of the

1-Volverine, our college yearbook, next year.

Brother Jim Aldrich is now official wielder of the

baton for our famous military band, and with two

more years of experience ahead, promises to be­

come a professional before he has finished.

Our annual Alumni party, Alpha Theta's bril­

liant climax to the school year, will be held as

an "off-campus" dinner dance at the Robinson " T ee-Off," Charlotte, June 21.

NU CHAPTER NEWS THE past three months have been busy ones

for N u chapter.

Brother Howard Leake visited the chapter in early February. It was indeed a pleasure to have him with us not only because of the valuable sug· gestions and advice he gave us but also because of the bond of fellowship that he established be· tween our chapter and the national organization of the Fraternity.

The following brothers are serving as officers for the second semester: Harry Pumphrey, Archon; Lynn Galloway, Secretary; Leslie Hedge, Treasurer-Steward; Richard Par l i, Chaplini Elmer Strayer, Warden; and Victor Schmidt, Historian.

We held initiation March 12th and seven men were received ns brothers, Robert Platt, Franklin Davis, Gerald Young, Eugene Tarr, Dale Alves, Koester Adams, and David Sisco are all noW proud possessors of a Pi Kapp badge. The chap· tcr gave a banquet Sunday, March 80, in honor of these new initiates. Many Lincoln and Omahii Alumni were in attendance.

Our athletic achievements of late have been ...r'' many and mighty. Brother Davey won his ",,

in basketball and Brother Davison was presented with a Freshman numeral in the same sport. Wayne Bly was actively competing in Spring foot· ball practice until an attack of appendicitis took him to the hospital. Brother Davison is holding down third base on the varsity baseball nine and Brother Sloan is one Rhodes' leading .twirlerS· Brother Davey is out for baseball also.

We are pleased to announce that · three meu, Steinheider, Downey and Smith, have recentlY been pledged.

* THE STAR AND LAMP OF PI KAPPA PHI * greeted us. Cursing parrots and a patch-eyed, Peg-legged bar tender completed the realistic set­ting M · embers and guests were dressed in cos-tumes befitting the occasion. The Olclahom.a Daily

~ated this dance as one of the best, if not the best, ance ever given on this campus.

Mid-term rush brought nine neophytes who are now proudly wearing the "white diamond." They are· T L · om osey, Chickasha, Okla.; Herbert Wil-son B· S 0

' 1g prings, Texas; James Rusk, Hominy, C kla.; Robert Hotchkiss, Enid, Okla.; Coy Best, ll.~rdell, Okla.; Raymond Parr, Norman, Okla.;

0 Ichard Phillips, Fort Worth, Texas; Carl Hogge, klahoma City; Leonard Wedel, Fairview, Okla.

A Probably the most outstanding member of . lpha Gamma is Joe Edwards. Brother Edwards IS a S , d A emor pre-me ic student and receives his p .B. degree this Spring. He has been elected to p h.i Beta Kappa, is president of Kappa Kappa

81, honorary band fraternity is also a member

of Alpha Chi Sigma, Phi Sig~a, Phi Mu Alpha, :nd Alpha Sigma Delta. Brother Edwards has

13rother "Bitsy" Cook, who plays at shortstop.

b rather Cook is a Senior lawyer. He was also asketball manager for the past year. "Bus" Wall,

a law F t 'reshman, is one of the best fielders on the ;am, Pledge Carl Hogge is third baseman, and ,, rather Raymond Watson is catcher. Almost a regular Pi Kapp team."

Lyman Edwards withdrew from school the first of this semester to accept a position as chief operator of Radio Station KCRC at Enid, Okla.

.Walton MacKenzie, of Fort Worth, Texas, re­~eives his degree this Spring. He will enter Wash­~gton School of Medicine, St. Louis, Mo., this ~·all,

f We feel fortunate that Brother Howard Leake }lound it possible to visit us again this year. During

rother Leake's visit we were also honored by the Prese 'h nee of Brother Fletcher and Brother George .oen 't n1 , of Omicron chapter.

8. We are glad to announce that through the per­~stent aid of our District Archon, Dr. J. H.

obinson, and through the co-operation of alumni

members, the contract for our new $65,000 home was signed on April 13, 1930. The MacAlister Construction Company will erect the building. The l10me is of modern Colonial architecture and is to be constructed of red brick. Three stories, twenty­two bedrooms, baths, living room, sunroom, dining room, housemother's room, guest room, kitchen and a reception hall constitutes the divisions. Work on the excavation began April 16, 1930, and the house will be completed in time for Fall rush.

NEWS FROM ALPHA NU

By ALVIN H. FRYE

WrTH the Spring quarter about half gone the boys at Alpha Nu are busy trying to get a good set of grades to take home to pa to start the summer vacation in the right way. They are look­ing ahead and planning for the Spring sport dance which will be held Saturday, May 10.

Everybody survived the Winter quarter exams and they are all back for more with the exception of Brother Rader, who received his sheepskin and

Jimmie Miller is the other member who was un­abl e to return for the Spring quarter. During Spring vacation he underwent an opera tion for

appendiciti s. The a thletes a t Alpha N u have been making

themselves known on the campus. Brother Fuchs, a member of the var sity fencing team, has just re­turned from Annapolis where he engaged in the Inte rcoll egiate F encing Meet. N orbie won hi s first two ma tches before he was finally defeated. Dick Kiinzl er, our other fencer, is sporting two medals as a result of his securing tl1 e University Intrammal Championship in epees and the runner­up in broadswords. Dick seems certain to l and on next year's fencing team along with F uchs.

Joe Kovic is out for Spring f ootball practi ce and is working hard to secure a position on the var­sity team. Mert Alvord was placed on the re­se rve baseball team but has decided to devote hi s talents to helping the fra ternity win in intra­mural baseball. In hi s first game he pitched a shutout and allowed but two hits. Our play­g round baseball team has won three games so fa r and is right in the race for a league cup. The ba rnya rd golfers are eagerly awaiting the call to action. Pledge Kenny H aley is still play ing polo and if bowed legs mean anything he will be riding the ponies on tl1 e varsity polo team next year. So much for our athletes.

Brother L awrence W ells was a chairman of one of the committees for the Junior Prom and Brother Crossley served on a committee for the Sophomore Hop.

In campus publications we have Brothers Wertsch on the Illini business staff, M ul vi hill on the T echnograph, and F razer on the Illini edi­torial s taff. Brother T ammeus finished the season with the track men as Sophomore manager.

Upsilon 's Spring formal on March 8 was a great success, although there were too few alumni faces to be seen. The next dance, an informal on May 16, will come during the Interscholastic meet, and so we expect a better showing of alumni, and perhaps some Brothers from other chapters

who can get down to see us.

Under the direction of Brother Thaisen as Archon, Leppl a as Secretary, Wells as Treasurer, Frazer as Historian, Ondrus as Chapl ain, and Bodwell as Warden, the chapter is having one of the most successful semesters since its installation

at the University of Illinois.
