Doug Chandler, 21, is president of the InterfratemityCouncil at Stanford University, a council which representsnearly 1,000 fraternity men on campus. A jvmior politicalscience major, he has interrupted his studies this year tospend six months with the Volunteers-In-Asia program,teaching languages in Indonesia. What follows are his commentson fraternities, excerpted from the Stanford AlumniAlmanac.


"differences between eachof the fraternitiesis sufficient to make nearly meaningless anydiscussion . . . which attempts to applycategorically to all ofthem."FRATERNITY living has long been one ofthe options within the Stanford campus residencecomplex. From time to time the fraternityconcept has come under scrutinization byother segments of the university community,and by individuals in fraternities themselves, todetermine whether desirable changes are occurring.Recent developments indicate that Stanfordfraternities, in general, are placing emphasison a general liberalization of procedures andactivities.Before these subjects are discussed, it shouldbe pointed out that most of us who join fraternitiesbelieve in the advantages of small groupresidence associations that provide a continuityof membership, unlike many other residences atStanford, and a healthy commitment to themaintenance and perpetuation of the group itself.Stanford can be a very lonely place, as thestudy by Dr. John Black (Student Counselingand Testing Center) confirmed last year.The feeling of mutual interest you find in afraternity is one way of overcoming this. In atime of increasing anonymity and isolation,most people feel it very important to encourageand maintain such a feeling of community. Itcan also be argued that the presence of thesesmaller Rousseauean societies, if you will, providesan ideal forum for free exchange of ideas.But it is true that efforts to allow open expressionof all ideas sometimes fall short.Autonomous and DifferentIt seems to me that the Stanford fraternitysystem must be viewed in different terms. It canbe said that the fraternities at Stanford act autonomouslyin their relations with one another[3]and, to a large extent, with their nationals aswell. Perhaps this was not so in the past, butrecent developments show that it is now necessaryto dispel the misconception of homogeneity.Among the basic types of student livingat Stanford, no single kind of student can befound in any one type of living group. The varietyof students living within one group, infact, is often claimed to be greater than that betweengroups. The living residences, however,do offer different attractions, and students areinfluenced in their choice by them. It is very evidentthat these attractions differ significaintlyamong the fraternities.Portions of the summary of the SES paneldiscussion focusing on the fraternity part of ReportIII, "University Residences and CampusLife," refer specifically to this situation. It ispointed out that the differences between eachof the fraternities is sufficient to make nearlymeaningless any discussion on a question predicatedby a statement such as "the fraternities"or which attempts to apply categorically to allof them.One such question addressed to "the fraternities"asked whether the fraternity experiencecontributed to the educational process and ifthe environment was in harmony with the intellectualand academic goals of the university. Atpresent, there are an impressive number of social,cultural, academic and athletic programswhich are part of the residential activities ofvarious fraternities. Briefly, these include residenceseminars, retreats, encounter sessions,speaker programs, guests-in-residence, foreignstudents in residence, faculty dinner programsand faculty cocktail hours.


"accusations of racial and religiousdiscrimination are based on anignoranceof today's fraternity situation ... discriminationis no longer anissue. 55Fraternity PowerPerhaps it is appropriate here to commentbriefly on the use of student political power byfraternities. It has already been asserted thatthe fraternity system is no more than a ratherloose collection of autonomous associations withseparate activities. In the past, fraternity condidateshave secured student offices by virtue ofthe fact that they were assured of being backedby a large bloc of votes. Today there are manyfraternity students involved in governance andstudent politics. However, they regard themselvesas individual participants rather than asassociated with an inaccurate stereotype. Severalattempts have been made to organize fraternitybacking on an issue. But the results have usuallybeen inconclusive because the differenceswithin are simply too great.The social and intellectual spheres overlapconstantly in most students' everyday activities.We are all aware of the importance and the influencenonacademic milieu have on the collegeexperience. The fact that one's living group ispart of, rather than apart from, being a studentis fundamental to the notion of a residence univarsity.Presently, it is simply not true that thefraternity is isolated from the university or thatit encourages or perpetuates an anti-intellectualenvironment.It is true, however, that there has been a failureof the fraternity to make people aware thatsuch charges are now based on fiction. But, becausemost fraternity men do not conceive ofthemselves as a select status group or an exlusivefaction, it is not likely that there will be agreat collective publicity effort on their part to[4]dispel this misconception. The awareness willprobably have to develop by itself as Stanford'sstyle of communication modifies itself in the directionof greater openness.Discrimination <strong>No</strong>t IssueBy the same token, accusations of racial andreligious discrimination are based on an ignoranceof today's fraternity situation on our campus.The question of discrimination is no longeran issue. I mean this in the sense that notone fraternity at Stanford is governed by anypolicy or regulation, either national or-local,that prohibits selecting a member who belongsto an ethnic, racial or religious minority group.Several fraternities here were leaders in eliminatingsuch clauses from their constitutions.Last year, the IFC unanimously approved aresolution expressing a commitment to the policiesof nondiscrimination regarding minoritygroups. It went further to encourage all effortsto influence the policy of any national towardexplicitly prohibiting all discriminatory clausesand practices concerning race, religion, color ornational origin. The IFC and fraternities independentlycontributed to the Martin LutherKing Jr. Scholarship Fund.In addition, three fraternities in the recentpast have severed their relationship with a nationalfraternity because they wished to be freeof any actual or implied restriction. Finally, asurvey has shown that 19 of Stanford's 24 fraternitiesnow have or have had members fromethnic, racial and religious minorities.SelectionMany polemical discussions have centered on


"the general consensus amongstudents in fraternities is that selection is anintegral part of theformation of thefraternity."the issue of selection. Selectivity, by far themost controversial aspect of fraternities at Stanford,is no longer characterized by the unanimousvote, or "one-ding,'' system. One of thefraternities is officially coeducational and anotherhas conducted its selection procedures byan open draw for several years. Obviously, greatdifferences exist among selection procedures ofthe 24 chapters. Still, the general consensusamong students in fraternities is that selectionis an integral part of the formation of the fraternity.It seems incongruous that selectivityshould be such an emotionally-charged conceptin a larger community where every individualhas been chosen after a long, carefully thoughtoutselective process. Ironically, critics hold thatselectivity in any form is contrary to the valuesembraced by the university.It has already been pointed out that the mostwidely accepted method of membership selectionhas altered from the "one-ding" system. Anestimated two-thirds of Stanford's fraternitieshave instituted some form of positive selectionsystem. Under this concept, potential membersmust gain approval from a certain percentageof the house membership in order to receive aformal invitation to join. A single active cannotbar a rushee who is approved by this percentage.Of those fraternities that retain a unanimousvote system, it is often on paper only. Inreality, the minority frequently defers to thewishes of the majority.Secrecy OutAnother new development has emerged duringthe last two or three years, indicating thatthe secrecy and exclusiveness once associated[5]with fraternities is no longer the rule. Severalfraternities have allowed non-members to boardin their houses. Often these are transfer studentswho are screened prior to fall quarterand later given bids to join. Sometimes they areupperclassmen who were uncertain about pledginglyby the university (payment becomes diffiaboutthe situation.Others are simply friends of individuals inthe fraternity and their board fees decrease thefinancial burden on the house—this is especiallytrue in some of the newly-constructed clusterhouses that have rooms available for 50 studentsand are assessed a monthly board bill accordinglyby the university (payment becomes difficultif there is a large graduating class or ifmany members are at overseas campuses).Finally, some of the houses merely wished tohelp the community during the increasingly severeresidence crisis which has occurred the lastseveral years each September when returningstudents need more accommodations than areavailable in the area. In the long run, thishelps the fraternity with its membership fluctuationsand corresponding financial needs, as wellas the interested non-member who enjoys thetenor and needs on-campus residence accommodations.A balanced view indicates that there are asufficient number of positive aspects of fraternitylife that we should encourage the changesbeing made. The alternative to progressivechange is slow stagnation from within. In Stanford'spluralistic residence plan, it is always possibleto make a residence a more genuinely rewardingand stimulating place to live. •


<strong>Phi</strong> of the YearDr. Carey Croneis Wins Gardner AwardATRULY distinguished <strong>Phi</strong> and one of America'sleading educators. Dr. Carey Croneis(Denison '22), has been selected as the 1968 winnerof the Raymond L. Gardner AlumnusAward, commonly known as the <strong>Phi</strong> of the YearAward.Dr. Croneis, chancellor of Rice Universitysince 1961, is the ninth recipient of the awardwhich was created by the Seattle Alumni Clubto honor the late Raymond L. Gardner (Washington'18).The award is based on an individual's contributionsand service to <strong>Phi</strong> <strong>Delta</strong> <strong>Theta</strong>, highereducation and his community.Even an abridged compilation of Dr. Croneis'many activities in these three areas would takemore room than we have. There are, however,several highpoints.An active member of the Houston AlumniClub, Dr. Croneis was the club's <strong>Phi</strong> of theYear in 1963 and toastmaster of <strong>Phi</strong> <strong>Delta</strong> <strong>Theta</strong>'s53d Biennial Convention in Houston in1960. He has given speeches before manyalumni clubs and at Founders Day dinners.A noted geologist as well as an administrator,he is a Sidney Powers Medalist of the AmericanAssociation of Petroleum Geologists, one of thehighest honors the profession can bestow onone of its members. The geology department atRice is known as one of the finest in the nation,thanks mainly to his efforts since 1954when he joined the staff.He is a former member of the Scientific ManpowerPanel of the President's Scientific AdvisoryCommittee and the National AdvisoryCommittee on Graduate Education. There is noend to his list of professional associations andactivities. He has published extensively in allforms—books, articles, monographs and scientificjournals.Additionally, for many years he has been editorof the Harper & Row publications in geosciences,a series that now runs to more than 30volumes. <strong>No</strong>t content with the printed word, hewas a pioneer in the use of talking motion picturesin the field of the earth sciences. His films,issued by the "Encyclopaedia Brittanica," havehad world-wide distribution.He holds nine honorary degrees, includingtwo from Beloit College where he was presidentfor 10 years.His activities in Houston have not been confinedto academic circles. He is a civic and culturalactivist, serving on the Board of Directorsof the Houston Symphony and has served onthe boards of both' the Houston Museum ofModern Art and the Chamber of Commerce.He is serving as chairman of a special commis^"sion considering revision of Houston's city charterand is chairman of the education committeeof the Texas Constitutional Revision CommiS'3sion.'Previous Gardner Award winners, from thestart of the award, are: Sidney O. Smith (Geor-.gia '08), Dr. O. N. Torian (Sewanee 1893), WilliamH. Mounger (Mississippi '38), Robert H.Behnke (Washington '43), Roger D. Branigan(Franklin '23), Dr. Ralph W. Sockman (OhioWesleyan '11), J. Quincy Adams (SMU '50) andCarman E. Kipp (Utah '48).The Gardner Award winner is selected fromamong nominees submitted by undergraduatechapters and alumni clubs by a committee composedof the two immediate past presidents ofthe General Council—in this case Stanley D.Brown (Nebraska-UCLA '36) and Jack E. Shep';man (Cincinnati '47)—and the alumni cominissioner,J. David Ross (Ohio Wesleyan '60). •

Also present at the ceremonywere Baseball Commissioner Bowie K.Kuhn; Joe Cronin, president of the AmericanLeague; and Wes Bearden (Georgia Tech '27)and Dave Krupp (Michigan '53), president andsecretary respectively of the Detroit AlumniClub.<strong>No</strong>w in his 17th season with the Tigers, Kaline—bothon and off the field—has shown thathe is an appropriate choice for the Gehrig[7]Award. The 34-year-old superstar, whose featsbegan when he captured the American Leaguebatting crown at age 20 and culminated lastyear when he compiled an outstanding .379 battingaverage in the World Series, has been a fixturein right field since 1954 (see THE SCROLL,1-69-145).In accepting the award, a duplicate of which isdisplayed in the Baseball Hall of Fame inCooperstown, N.Y., Kaline said: "It is a realhonor to be selected by the Gehrig Committeeand <strong>Phi</strong> <strong>Delta</strong> <strong>Theta</strong> for an award given in thename of a man who meant so much to baseball.I only hope I can live up to the attributes ofLou Gehrig (Columbia '25), as well as those ofthe 13 previous winners."Prior to the presentation, alumni club membersheld a cocktail party and dinner at Carl'sChop House, Detroit, as part of the AwardsNight festivities.•

Why not pot now—what is to be lost? "All future control ofthis drug is the best answer/' says Dr. Henry Brill in this questionand answer exchange on the problems of marijuana. The pressuresare mounting to legalize production and use of marijuana.Proponents invariably put forth glii, standard arguments thatseek to establish marijuana as a safe, harniless and useful drug.<strong>No</strong>t so, says Dr. Brill, who is president of the American Collegeof Neuropsychopharmacology and chairman of both the NationalResearch Council Committee on Drug Dependence andthe American Medical Association's Committee on Drug Dependenceand Alcoholism.This article is excerpted from the original which appearedin Psychiatric Opinion and is reprinted here with that magazine'spermission and that of the author.THE question-and-answer period which comes atthe end of a presentation of the medical aspectsof marijuana use is the "moment of truth" whenone learns what the audience really thinks. Thiswriter has had somewhat more than his share ofsuch experiences with students and young intellectualsand will present a composite picture of the favoritearguments, together with comment on each ofthem.The statements which follow come in the form ofpremises that seem to permit only one conclusion—afalse one. They represent pieces of a somewhat standardand very persuasive dialectic which seeks toprove that marijuana is a safe, harmless, and usefuldrug and should be legalized or at least made morefreely availiable. In the view of the writer, only a fewof the statements are factually wrong. The basicerror is that the conclusions do not follow from thepremises.Marijuana falls far below heroin and cocaine inthe scale of dangerous drugs and is less damagingthan LSP, but it is nevertheless a hazardous, dependence-producingsubstance, and any procedurewhich would expose the population at large to arelatively free supply of it would constitute a publichealth hazard of serious proportions.Marijuana is not physically addicting and isnot a narcotic.This statement is true but contains the hiddenconclusion that since the drug causes no symptomson withdrawal, it is not harmful. The cocainist alsohas no physical symptoms on withdrawal. By thisstandard, cocaine also Should not be harinful or anarcotic, yet it is notoriously harmful through itscapacity to produce psychic dependence and destroysocial capacity.The drug does not produce tolerance. Thereis no need for increasing doses, therefore it isnot like heroin (and not harmful).The harmfulness of a drug of dependence doesnot depend on the need for increasing doses. It isexpressed directly in the life pattern of the user.The cocainist, for example, does not require increasingdoses. The drug effect is primarily on themental Mfe. Secondarily, it operates to reduce theuser's capacity to live as a social being. At the same[9]time a powerful desire and a need for further use ofthe drug is created.<strong>No</strong> somatic damage has been demonstratedamong marijuana users.This is true, but misleading, for two reasons. Thefirst is that lack of laboratory findings is not proofof health. Schizophrenics are all normal by laboratorystandards, and so are most mentally defectivepersons.The second is that harm lies not in somatic damagebut in the effect on the life pattern of the user.Cocaine, heroin, and amphetamine also produce noknown somatic damage. It is only self-neglect of theuser that is known to lead to death and disability.Psychosis is not produced by marijuana. Onlypre-existing tendencies are released.The release theory of psychosis carries little comfortfor the victim or for his family. Syphilis oncewas also thought to release rather than cduse thepsychosis of paresis (as distinguished from the organicdeterioration). The unstable and vulnerablefraction of the population is a very large minority ofour society, and among them are some of our mostvaljuable citizens. To assume that if they did notfall yjctim to this pressure, they would surely succumbotherwise is pure speculation. A whole segmentof industrial insurance rests on the principlethat an aggravating factor is a disease-producingfactor.CURE:All Bilious Complaints.' ney ue peifectir nfd to tike. twlnR Ptmxu:TEOKZABUi and prepued with ttie greateat imia(ram OM beat dmga.

THE SCROLL of <strong>Phi</strong> <strong>Delta</strong> <strong>Theta</strong> for SEPTEMBER, 1969IIdistortions can be generated. These range in intensityfrom illusions to full visual hallucinations.It is attractive because it is forbidden. Legalizationwould counteract this.Would marijuana use really decrease if it werefreely available? If so, why was it so prevalent whereit was legal? And why did it become established inthe first place? The laws were passed only after theabuse developed.If marijuana were freely available, it wouldreplace alcohol.This is the opposite effect of the one suggestedjust above. Instead of the drug's dying out after legalization,it is suggested that it would have enoughappeal to drive out alcohol, which is now used bymillions of persons.Both notions are purely speculative and based onno experience. In countries where both alcohol andmarijuana are available, there is no indication ofreal competition.Marijuana is far less harmful than alcohol.We should prohibit the latter and legalizethe former.Alcohol prohibition was tried and failed. In aworld of reality the choice is whether or not we shalladd the relatively unknown evils of marijuana tothe well-known problems of alcohol. In this countrymarijuana has caused no problems comparable withthose of alcohol, but it has never been used on anygreat scale. To judge what full availability wouldmean, we must go to countries where it is freelyavailable—and here the picture is not reassuring.The pharmacologic differences between these twoare most important in making the comparison. Increasingthe dose of alcohol produces ataxia andstupor, while raising the dose of marijuana producesdelusions and hallucinations with acute psychoticbursts. Chronic use produces a deteriorationof the will to work and the capacity to take responsibility.This is relaxation of a most dangerous andpersistent kind, which strikes at the very root of allproductive capacity.Finally, a particular disadvantage is the specificattraction of marijuana for young persons in theirformative period.The drug produces tranquility on demandand should be legalized as a much-neededsubstance for our over-tense society.We should not confuse tranquility with euphoria,which is a main purpose in taking the drug. Tranquilityis easily outdistanced and becomes chronicincapacity in persons who abuse the drug. As a clinicaltranquilizer it is inferior to drugs now on themarket and was rejected by psychiatrists after trialmore than a hundred years ago.The medical sciences have only conflictingopinions to offer about marijuana. There isno consensus on which to base a social decision.This allegation confuses consensus with unanimity.There are many differences of opinion aboutsome aspects, but there is overwhelming consensusthat this drug should not be legalized, and no responsiblemedical body in the world supports suchaction.If it is dangerous, why have harmful effectsnot been demonstrated in American users?This was true until quite recently, but seriouspsychotic reactions are now being reported amongstudents. In addition, it has been noted that thedrug is avoided by the scientific students whose workis most sensitive to any dulling or loss of scholasticdrive or capacity for mental effort.It is true that marijuana disabilities have notbeen established statistically in rigorously-controlledstudies. But it is also true that in the past theyhave not been systematically sought. The ghettopopulation previously involved with marijuana wasnot well monitored, and minor mental effects wereless likely to be noted. The major disabilities aresufficiently unusual to have been explained by othermechanisms. We are now in a much more favorableposition to evaluate the situation.Everyone is doing it. Legalization is now requiredas recognition of an accomplished fact.This is an incorrect statement. Marijuana is notin general use in this country. Many who defend itin principle do not use it in fact. At most, its use islargely confined to young males, principally in certainparts of the country. Even in these areas only aminority have experimented, and a far smallernumber are regular users.The limited results in recent surveys are indeedsurprising in view of the inordinate amount ofpublic attention which marijuana has had and themagic virtues which have been attributed to it.These include life appreciation, mental tranquility,sexual potency and pleasure, and expansion of themind. Seldom has a population been subjected to amore intensive though unintended sales campaign.


12 THE SCROLL of <strong>Phi</strong> <strong>Delta</strong> <strong>Theta</strong> for SEPTEMBER, 1969All accounts of harmful effects are merelydescriptive, clinical, intuitive and impressionistic.They are not scientific and provenothing.The clinical method has indeed been very wrongmany times with respect to the treatment of disease,but those who deny outright the validity of theclinical method for identification of pathologic syndromesmust be very unfamiliar with medical history.A large number of diseases and disorders wereclinically identified and well described long beforethe advent of modern, rigorous, scientific methods.Scurvy, pellagra, cretinism, paresis, malaria, syphilis,smallpox, typhoid, typhus, gout and diabetes arebut the beginning of an interminable list.The 1<strong>94</strong>4 Mayor's Committee report (LaGuardia report) exonerated marijuana asbeing innoculous.<strong>No</strong> single piece of literature has been more misquotedthan this careful but preliminary investigation.The investigators found then that the drugwas mainly confined to Harlem where confirmedsmokers were taking 6 to 10 cigarettes per day. Infield investigations no evidence was found of infiltrationof the habit into the schools, nor was itfound to be a cause of criminal or aggressive behavior.The surveys were supplemented by studies on77 subjects who received the drug under direct observation,and here the results were far from innocuous.Subjects became generally unable to fix attention,and waves of euphoria were frequently interruptedor replaced by states of apprehension ofvarying degrees. There were unconventional acts notnormally permitted in public, anxiety reactions, oppositionand antagonism, and eroticism. "Effectssuch as these would be considered conducive to actsof violence,'' the reports stated. "However, any tendencytoward violence was expressed verbally." Finally,in the total group of 77 persons, "what areknown as psychotic episodes occurred in 9 subjects.""it is impossible to measurewhat this represents interms of true loss of intellectualmanpower."Six were transitory, and 3 were of more prolonged'nature.Why not pot now?"What is to be lost?" we are often asked."All future control of this drug" is the best answer.By a stroke of the legislative pen, society can releasethis substance at any time. Suppose however,that at a later date it is found that the hashishcountries were right, and that this is really a dangerousdrug which produces harmful dependence.Would we then be in any better position than thosecountries are with respect to its suppression?<strong>No</strong>t only is there much to be lost by legalization,but there is much to be gained by waiting for furtherstudy, since the pace of investigation hasquickened. A pure substance which produces thetypical marijuana effect has at long last been isolatedand synthesized, and it is ready for controlledstudy. In addition, reports such as the recent oneby Miras indicate that modern techniques are nowfor the first time being applied to the study of cannabism.The results should soon be available.Finally, self-experimentation among students isalso beginning to produce data which within a fewyears should give us some better idea of the lessgross mental effects produced by regular use, Americanstyle. Would it not be better to wait for thisdata before an irreversible release of this drug?A conclusion and a question: Is marijuanaAmerica's new brain drain?The medical profession has refused to give marijuanaa stamp of approval as a safe drug. It wouldseem to be a responsibility of medicine and themedical sciences to make clear the reasons for thisrefusal.Writers since the time of Moreau de Tours andBaudelaire have insisted that this drug has a specificallyenervating effect on the user's productive capacitythrough a weakening of drive and interest. Itthis is so, what may be the effect of the drug lifewhich has become part of the educational and intellectualscience? Data are not yet available as to theeffect on the university, but one hears much informaltalk of dropouts and of students who haveweakened in their work while taking drugs.From other sources we hear that admissions toprivate psychiatric facilities include a considerablenumber of college dropouts who have been takingdrugs and are emotionally disturbed. It is impossibleto measure what this represents in terms oftrue loss of intellectual manpower. Yet we cannotforget how certain governments have reacted to thefact that they were losing young technical gradepersonnel by emigration to the United States. Theprocess is called "the brain drain," and the countrieswho have lost these men state clearly that theyconsider the brain drain to be a matter of nationalconcern. We shall probably never know whether thedrug life which has invaded the U.S. institutions ofhigher learning has in fact constituted a braindrain by drop-out. Yet it is a consideration whichcannot be ignored.•

He hasseen it all—life, death, justice, injustice. Recently,he spoke to 500 lawyers and discoveredevery one was a former student of his. EveryOhio law student, every Ohio court, uses "OhioTrial Evidence," a book he wrote.Practioners of the law are plentiful, studentsof the law are rare, and Judge Bert, who hasbeen both, has decided to once again put afinger in the boiling pot of people "troubled"by society's rules. "I'm not ready to quit," hesaid."My big long nose is easy to hit," said JudgeBert. "When I was selling papers (age 7 upthrough college) I lost a fight to a pair of big- Judge Long: As he went to the bench in 1957[18]

Six months later, I was in anothernewsboy fight and it was broken from the otherside."That night, when Bert went home, hismother cried "Look, look, his nose is straight."A doctor told the family to go thank the lastopponent for a |100 gift on grounds "that'swhat I would have charged for the same job."When Bert graduated from Old Hughes Highhe was valedictorian. Then came Yale, "Mymother used to tell the neighbors 'that placepays my boy to go there,'" chuckled JudgeBert. "I did have scholarships, but I still waitedon tables and worked the papers summers toget by. It was at Yale I made the debating teamand discovered the appeal of law. University ofCincinnati gave me the law.""I've represented big companies and prominentpeople, but neither the money nor thepeople ever bothered me," said Judge Bert."The cases I remember best were the challengesat law."Take the woman, eight months pregnant,who escorted her mother to Winton Place stationin a taxicab, and later gave birth to ablind and premature child. She sued, claiming arough and dashing taxi ride. Judge Bert, representingthe cab company, let her and hermother exaggerate the roughness of this ridethroughout the trial. The grandmother evensaid her expectant daughter was "prostrate"with jouncing when they reached the station."I had six mothers and six men on that jury,and I just asked them if they could have gottenon a train to New York and left their expectantand half-conscious daughter in the station," saidJudge Bert, who won the case."As a court-appointed attorney, I representedan even dozen murderers," said Judge Bert."The late Jim Stewart (former mayor and OhioSupreme Court Justice) was with me on thefirst case. The man maintained he was innocentright up to the electric chair, and I felt awful."The priest who walked the last mile with theculprit came back to the warden's office andtold Bert the man had said "thanks" and finallyhad more or less confessed his guilt by "makingpeace with God." Of the other 11 murderers.Judge Bert said "I kept them out of the chairbut I was convinced they all were guilty."Forty-one years he taught at UC and ChaseCollege while practicing, and then spent 12great years—by request of the Bar Association—on the Court of Appeals. Some judges, lookinglike suspicious penguins in those black robespeering down at helpless meat, might feelnought but great power."<strong>No</strong>t me," said Judge Bert. "Solomon was sogreat a judge. The Lord offered him anythinghe wanted, and Solomon's reply is in SecondKings. I framed it where I had to read it beforegoing on the bench every morning."He quoted: "Give therefore. Thy servant, anunderstanding heart, that I may be able tochoose between good and bad." Judge Bert allowed"if a judge follows that, he may gowrong, but if so, he does it with a conscience."What a lawyer, and what a time to say, "Ithink I'll start in practice."•


Oakland's Jim OttoDouble-O Rated King Of The CentersJIMstory excerpted from a column by George Ross inthe Oakland Tribune. Photo courtesy the OaklandRaiders.OTTO (Miami of Florida '60), who isjust a year younger than Santa Claus, gotjust what he knew he was going to get lastChristmas, another all-league citation.How can a guy survive for nine years straightas the only All-Pro center the American FootballLeague has ever known?Oh, the Associated Press loused it up oneyear and voted for Jon Morris, but Jim hasmade the official All-AFL every season since1960 when both he and the league were ratedtoo puny even to play pro football.<strong>No</strong>w he's the king of the centers, the Old Proof the snappers-back, the guy who has outlasted15 quarterbacks, four head coaches, 13 assistants,five general managers, seven public relationsexperts and a closely-computed 748 teammatescounting just those who tasted combat,plus a platoon of early-gone owners as the OaklandRaiders grew from sick seed to tall tree inthe pro sports jungle.Big Double-O has a phenomenal pro record.<strong>No</strong>t only is he the only AFL player to havemade the official all-league team every seasonsince the league started, he has started in everyone of 126 league games, 44 out of 45 exhibitiongames, a league championship, a SuperBowl, a Western Division championship game,plus all eight AFL All-Star games.How long can this foolishness keep on. OldJim?"Whatta ya mean. Old Jim?" the 30-year-oldpivot cog of the Western Division's repeatchamps growls. "When I started in this league Iwas like Avis, I had to try harder, and I still do.But I rate last season among the best I've had,and I'd like to think I'll be the all-league centeras long as I play and I'll play as long as I canget it done right.''By the end of Otto's first season the all-wiseexperts of pro football recognized they'd madeone little mistake, though they were far fromadmitting they'd made several king-sized ones.The NFL's overrated brain trusters were stillsaying, "What AFL? They haven't even got afootball" and, "All they'll get is kids and castoffs;there's just not enough talent now for even ourGrade A brand"—but they had stopped saying"Jim Otto Who?'They came out flat-footed with big money intheir mitts and tried to steal this maverickrookie center, get him to jump "to the major[20]league, Jim, the NFL." He was a blue-chip proand they'd missed on him completely."I thought I had figured it right, but Icouldn't figure out if the AFL owners had figuredit right. You couldn't tell if they knewwhat they were doing or just stumbling along,but we slipped into the Al Davis Era in Oaklandabout the time several other clubs werereally turning the corner.Jim was a runt in 1960, a 218-pound center,but he had then and still has the fighting gutsof an all-pro-champion.He was 235 pounds at the end of that firstyear heading for 260, and he was sensational.Raider fans who now have a sophisticatedappreciation of the swift Oakland special teamsshould have seen the 1960-61 Raiders with JimOtto, Wayne Hawkins and Don Manoukian ofthat kick-coverage suicide squad.They were the heart of the embryonic OaklandRaiders, two fire-out fireplug guards and awild colt of a center burning downfield to hitpeople and crash the ball carriers.History will say the Raiders weren't much inthose years, a bunch of "guys named Joe," butthey were a darn sight better than their coachesand their owners and their few brave fans hada right to ask.Otto can recall the first "Welcome Raiders"motorcade up Broadway past five skid-rowdrunks and a handful of coffee-breaking secretaries;he and Hawk still have pets among theKezar seagulls who gave out the loudest cheersfor AFL Oakland in that fog-bound and nearlydeserted lumber pile in the first season. Butthey'll tell you they played some football gamesas tough then as now. Tougher."It's easier now," Otto says, "As you play longera lot of things come easier, you don't haveto use up as much energy to do the job right.""We aren't as good as we're going to be,"Otto says of the Raiders. "The tackles areyoung men playing their third seasons, oneguard is in his second year and the other inwhat amounts to his second."We've come so far. Our team today is milesbetter than even the strong teams were in theAFL's early years, and stronger than all but thetop NFL teams today and you have to playthem to test anythmg across the leagues. "We'lldo as well in that league as we do in our own,I'm sure of it."•

A Problem Of Membership SelectionAn Information Report To <strong>Phi</strong> Delt AlumniThere has been considerable discussion between fraternities and institutionsof higher education regarding methods used by fraternities to selecttheir members. In the past this has mainly involved contentions of racialdiscrimination. This matter has pretty well been resolved. <strong>Phi</strong> <strong>Delta</strong> <strong>Theta</strong>,at its 1968 Convention, changed its Constitution to eliminate any wordingwhich may have been interpreted as racially discriminatory. Discussions nowcenter on the percentage of chapter vote used to determine membership.The following is a brief synopsis of the situation at Cornell Universitywhere the future existence of our chapter is in jeopardy because of selectionrequirements. Somewhat similar problems face our chapters on several othercampuses. We submit this report to keep our alumni fully informed. Wehope to present similar reports on this and other topics in future SCROLLS.There have been numerous reports submitted at Cornell University by both official andunofficial groups regarding student organizations on campus. Most of these reports voiceconcern over membership selection policies of fraternities at Cornell.It is believed that essentially every fraternity at Cornell is free of membership restrictionsinsofar as race, creed, color and national origin are concerned. It is also believed that finaldetermination of membership selection in this regard is in the hands of the local chapters.This is certainly true for <strong>Phi</strong> <strong>Delta</strong> <strong>Theta</strong>.The current concern involves the percentage of vote for membership. <strong>Phi</strong> <strong>Delta</strong> understandsthat Cornell's Board of Trustees has said that "any voting procedure within a residentialunit which permits one, or a small minority of voting members, to eliminate astudent from consideration for pledging and/or initiation should be abolished." Thereis an alleged deadline of January, 1970, regarding this policy.It is ironic that persons who propose this policy wish to require that local chapters ofinternational fraternities be free to determine by what vote a person will be accepted formembership while, at the same time, imposing a local campus regulation which wouldprohibit these chapters from choosing one method of selection, i.e. unanimous or nearunanimousballot.Those opposed to unanimous or near-unanimous membership selection have capitalizedon publicity indicating that such a system is one of exclusion. On the other hand, representativesof many fraternities which have traditionally selected members on this basisclaim the method is one of inclusion.And so, the two forces meet head-on. On the one hand, you have a proposal to openup fraternity recruitment to the possible extent that the student will select the fraternityhe wishes to join without a reciprocal agreement on the part of fraternity members—a sortof Book of the Month Club arrangement. On the other hand, you have a traditional fraternityselection system which attempts to assure the man who has been pledged and/orinitiated that he meets with the approval of a significant majority of the members and willbe accepted into a closely knit group.With the January, 1970, deadline at Cornell, it would appear that many fraternities,along with <strong>Phi</strong> <strong>Delta</strong> <strong>Theta</strong>, are on the threshold of determining whether they can continueto maintain chapters on campuses where methods of membership selection are determinedby persons who are not members of their respective fraternities.

But then the man who has neverhad a losing season as head coach of the Ducks,received a long, standing ovation."I thank you so much," he said.

WHAT'S GOING ON IN $ A 0Appointments—Meetings—AnnouncementsWide Ranging AgendaGeneral Officers Confer In HoustonThe Fraternity's general officers gathered inHouston, Tex., May 23-24 for the 1969 General OfficersConference. On hand were province presidents,the headquarters staff, several members ofthe General Council, representatives of the SurveyCommission and other officers.The conference, handled by Lambda ProvincePresident Bruce F. Thompson (Minnesota '50),covered the waterfront as far as problems and topicscurrently concerning both the Fraternity and itscollegiate milieu.An idea of the range of discussion can be obtainedfrom a look at some of the seminar topics;ritual, hazing, membership selection, the changingcampus climate, narcotics, housing, expansion, get itoff your chest, leadership conference, the fraternityofficer, what's going on in fraternities, and <strong>Phi</strong> <strong>Delta</strong><strong>Theta</strong>—its future direction.There were three motions approved by the groupduring the two days of meetings. One asked theGeneral Council to investigate from a legal standpointthe possibility of obtaining a favorable courtruling on the Fraternity's right to a unanimousvote on membership.The conference also explored methods to counteractefforts to picture the unanimous ballot as discriminatoryand therefore immoral. The officerssought ways to explain to undergraduates that theunanimous ballot is not immoral to any degree.It was also moved and seconded that more emphasisbe placed on the use of the Ritual since it isrelevant today and a vital part of <strong>Phi</strong> <strong>Delta</strong> <strong>Theta</strong>.Another motion called for chapters to improvepledge programs and eliminate any remainingforms of hazing. The Fraternity's official policy forseveral years has opposed any form of hazing. Anychapter found guilty of hazing faces a $250 fine anda two year probation by the Fraternity.It was generally agreed that the situation on campusesis not all bad despite the turmoil in manyareas. Fraternity men, said the officers, must assertleadership to prevent the takeover of the reins ofleadership on their campuses by militants representinga small portion of the student body.Thompson led a lively discussion on the growingdrug problem. There were several views on how seriousa problem it is at present. It was decided theFraternity would have to explore its policies in this[44]and other areas of conduct more carefully, especiallyin the view of the trend of many colleges and universitiesto eliminate rules and regulations of conduct.The Fraternity's General Statutes already prohibitthe use of non-medically needed drugs inchapter houses.On May 23 the conference was honored to hear afew words from Army Maj.

Graduation Day: Vice President Agnew, Bob Hope, Dick Maxwell and Dale Barker chat.[66]


GraduationDayAMilestoneForCourageousDick MaxwellFRATERNITY brothers. President Nixon,Vice President Spiro Agnew, Bob Hope andhundreds of others joined forces Saturday, June7, to make it one of the most important days inthe life of Richard N. Maxwell (Ohio State '64).Winding up five and one-half years of courageouswork, the 27-year-old quadriplegic receivedhis degree in business administrationfrom Ohio State.He has been paralyzed from his neck down,except for some movement of his shoulders,since an intramural football game <strong>No</strong>v. 18,1963, when he suffered a broken neck on thelast play of the game (see SCROLLS, 3-64-253; 1-67-207).Since that tragic afternoon, Dick's story hasbeen one of courage and determination as hewent through agonizing hours of rehabilitationand gradually worked himself back into universitylife.It took a Presidential assist to get one of hisclosest friends. Dale J. Barker (Ohio State '66)home from Vietnam for the graduation.Some Ohio State <strong>Phi</strong>s set out to get Barkerhome from Vietnam for the graduation. Theywrote President Nixon explaining the situation.The President didn't reply, but Army brass did,indicating Barker would be discharged early totake part in the activities.After the graduation ceremonies Dick had achance to talk with the two men who receivedhonorary degrees that day. Vice PresidentAgnew and Bob Hope.On May 26 the chapter held a banquet tohonor Dick as the 1968-69 winner of The JourneymanAward. The award, given by the chapter'sfaculty advisor. Col. A. E. Waller (Kentucky'14), is symbolic of being chosen <strong>Phi</strong> ofthe Year.Dick was nominated for the award in a movingletter from Vietnam written by Barker."The 7th of June . . . will be the greatest day ofmy life," he wrote. "(G)reater than my pledging* A e and becoming an active, graduatingfrom Ohio State, or returning a free, well manfrom Vietnam, because I have known a mangreater than I as a friend and a brother . . .who took what little we've all given him and accomplishedsomething not one of us has enough. . . intestinal fortitude to do. The reward issmall and the price fantastic."Confined to a wheelchair, and using metalsplints to support his hands for writing andtyping, Dick went to classes and made the gradeat OSU. He also remained a loyal <strong>Phi</strong>. He wentto all the home football games, attended Fraternityparties, dated, went out with the boys for a[67]

To say thatRichard Maxwell is someone special to <strong>Phi</strong>s atOhio State is an understatement. To many, heis <strong>Phi</strong> <strong>Delta</strong> <strong>Theta</strong> spirit, loyalty and brotherhoodpersonified.The future is uncertain. Dick's goal has beento take his place as a productive citizen. Thiswas the main reason behind his struggle for adegree.The uncertainty hinges on a $250,000 claimagainst the university and the state for his injuries.Much of the legal work on this matter,which has been pending for several years, hasbeen donated by Columbus attorney, Fred J.Milligan, '28, a former <strong>Phi</strong> Delt field secretary.Quadriplegic. A terribly harsh sounding word to most of us. What does it mean?What is the world of a quadriplegic all about? Read what Dick Maxwell says aboutit. Read and think.COULD you answer the question, "What is aquadriplegic?", beyond the oversimplifiedstatement, "He is paralyzed from the neckdown."?Basically, it means that once the spinal cordis severed or severely damaged, all nerve controlof the body, both sensory and motor, is lostbelow that point and cannot be repaired. Forthe quadriplegic, his injury or spinal cord disorderhas occurred high on the spinal column andthe resulting paralysis affects all four of hisbody's extremities, hence the prefix "quad,"meaning four, and the suffix "plegia," meaningparalysis.Fifteen years ago the medical profession wasunable to save the lives of patients with highspinal cord injuries; there were just too manycomplications to overcome. More recently, withthe advanced techniques and new procedures ofmodern medicine the quadriplegic is saved, andthrough intensive rehabilitation programs istrained to utilize all of his unaffected muscularcontrol above the injured cord level—but thefact remains that he will be paralyzed for therest of his life.Yes, it means he is paralyzed, but it meansmuch more. It means he is entirely dependenton others for the rest of his life, for every physicalactivity. He is a mentally independent individualwho has lost all of his physical independence.It means that for the rest of his life hewill see the world from either a sitting or lyingposition.He cannot dress himself, wash his face, brushhis hair or eliminate his body's wastes withoutsomeone else's help. It means he cannot holdthe hand of someone he loves because hecannot grasp. And if a loved one holds hishand, he cannot feel her touch.He cannot straighten a magazine if itscrooked position on a table bothers him. Itmeans that if he is ill he cannot cough orsneeze because he has no muscular contractionin his chest. When someone extends a hand ingreeting, all he can do is look, smile and hopethe person will drop his hand. He cannot getover a curb, do his own shopping for a gift orgo to the library to study. It means near emotionaldestruction for himself and his family. Itmeans that if he wants a date, a friend has tolook up the number, dial the phone and holdthe receiver. When the date is made, someoneelse has to drive, pick up his date and take herhome. He cannot adjust the television, open anewspaper, fill his drinking glass, unwrap apiece of gum or light a cigarette. It means thatif there is a draft, he cannot close the window,and if he is warm, he cannot open it.In short, and this point cannot be emphasizedtoo much, the quadriplegic is a thinkingindividual who has his own needs and desiresand who must depend on a faceless "someoneelse'' every minute of the day. That someoneelse may take the form of a nurse, orderly, parentor friend, but they all have to be asked,asked and thanked, for every normal activitythey perform for him. The feeling of dependenceis a constant in his life. It means he cannotafford to allienate anyone within his envi-lronment, no matter what type of personalityconflict is involved. How frustrating would itbe for you if you had to direct the movementsof someone else's hands and feet as if they wereyour own to perform the simplest task?With time you adjust to the physical disabilityand accept it as something that cannotchange, but the most damning consequence isthe Cf)nstant emotional destruction resultingfrom dependence on others. The mind is wholeand working, having needs and desires, butthey must be fulfilled by other hands. This ispossible most of the time, but you cannot put


THE SCROLL of <strong>Phi</strong> <strong>Delta</strong> <strong>Theta</strong> for NOVEMBER, 1969 69Maxwell: The only unique quality a man possesses is his mind and what it produces.another's arms around someone you love andfeel her warmth. It means that even simplewants, such as where the trouser crease shouldbe, or how a collar should lay, or how a tieshould be tied must be explained again, andagain and again.It means that every time you come into contactwith someone new, all the explanationsthat have been repeated a thousand times mustbe told again. It is a life with a longing, burningdesire for independence and individualitywith the horribly real fact that it is constantlyimpossible.There is an almost unlimited number ofthings a quadriplegic cannot do, but he canstudy, think and communicate. I would hypothesizethat, ultimately, the only unique qualityman possesses is his mind and what it produces.This means tliat a quadriplegic can be a functioningand contributing part of the societyupon which he depends. There are many tasksthat can be performed with the use of the mindand speech and without the use of arms andlegs.<strong>No</strong>w arises the question, "Where is the quadriplegicto live?" Before a quadriplegic can be afunctioning and contributing part of society hemust have an adequate facility and environmentin which to live. Financially, it is almostimpossible for an individual to live by himselfor with his family, and maximum welfare is ameager amount that does not approach the costof nursing home care. At the present time, ayoung quadriplegic has two choices—he can eithermentally and emotionally vegetate athome, or in an institution that provides adequatecare for the aged, but certainly not anadequate environment for a young person. Ifthe environment is depressing and desperatelyunstimulating, it is impossible for a person togrow as an individual or contribute anything tothe society of which he is a part.This is the problem the young quadriplegicfaces. He has the capacity and the ability to bea productive, contributing person. He has thepotential to be a functioning part of his society.But, at the present, there exists no facility thathas a positive, working, continuing programand environment for the young paralyzed person.If this type of facility did exist, perhaps whenthe question was asked, "What is a quadriplegic?",the answer would not be, "He is paralyzedfrom the neck down.", but rather "He isa person who is active and very much alive fromthe shoulders up."•


What is the "Korrect Shape" of fraternitiesand sororities in the future?Here is a look at the choices of disestablishmentor disaffiliation by Dr.John D. Millett, one of the nation'sleading educators and currently chancellorof the Ohio Board of Regents.In addition he has been a long-timeworker in Pfii <strong>Delta</strong> <strong>Theta</strong>'s vineyard,and is currently a member-at-large ofits General Council.•A.Disestablish OrDisaffiliate?By Dr. John D. Millett (DePauw '33)<strong>Phi</strong> <strong>Delta</strong> Thela General CouncilTHE American college fraternity and sororit)are under continuing attack on many collegeand university campuses today.For several years the attack centered on theconstitutional requirements of fraternities andsororities regarding qualifications for membership.Under pressure from certain faculty members,student groups, and even state and federallaw, college and university administrators demandedassurance from each campus chapter ofa fraternity or sorority that there was no formalprovision of the organizations' charter whichprevented the fraternity or sorority from selectinga member regardless of race, religion or nationalorigin.This particular battle is over. Wherever itwas necessary to do so, the national organizationof a fraternity or sorority eliminated from itsconstitution any requirement which would haverestricted membership selection upon the basisof race, religion or national origin. Many, if notmost, fraternities and sororities today can pointto broadened memberships which include personspreviously not considered eligible for membership,principally upon the basis of race orreligion.Yet the attack upon college fraternities andsororities is not over. On the contrary, as a partof the general unrest which exists on so manycampuses today, fraternities and sororities areunder more bitter attack than before. The immediateissue has simply changed from membershiprequirements to membership selection procedures.


THE SCROLL of <strong>Phi</strong> <strong>Delta</strong> <strong>Theta</strong> for NOVEMBER, 1969 71Most fraternities and sororities over the yearshave insisted that membership selection must beupon the basis of unanimous agreement by alocal chapter. In practice, this is known as the"blackball" system. One member who objectscan prevent any individual person from beingselected for membership. The member who objectsis seldom required to make known the reasonfor his objection. Even if the reason is known,no matter how frivolous it may be, other membersare bound by their obligations of mutualsupport and respect for each other to sustain thejudgment of the single individual.Actually, those experienced in fraternity andsorority affairs are well aware that membershipselection upon a unanimous vote basis is not sorestrictive as the requirement might seem.First of all, unanimous selection usually meansthe unanimous vote of those present and votingon one or on a slate of membership candidates.It has not been unknown for meetings to beheld when considerably less than all members ofthe fraternity or sorority were present to vote onmembership invitations.Secondly, a determined individual or groupof persons in a fraternity or sorority frequentlyare able to dissuade one or two members frominsisting that a particular person is persona nongrata.In some sororities—I know of no fraternitieswhere this practice prevails—a local chapter bycustom or requirement may not select a youngwoman for membership unless she is recommendedby an organization of alumnae living inher community. In this circumstance, individualsselected for membership must be agreeable toalumna; as well as to active members of the localchapter. I believe this practice has been underso much criticism of late that it is being abandoned,or in some instances simply not observed.1 think it is only fair to say that the unanimousmembership selection procedure is by no Itieansunique to college fraternities and sororities.Many private clubs—university clubs, countryclubs, athletic clubs, special clubs, civic clubs,masonic clubs—operate essentially on the basisthat the strong objection of any one single individualis sufficient to block acceptance of aperson into membership. This has been the practicefor many years. The college fraternity andsorority neither invented the unanimous voteselection procedure nor retained it longer thanother organizations.<strong>No</strong>netheless, it must be acknowledged that onmany college campuses today various faculty andstudent activists are demanding that the unanimousvote procedure be abandoned as the basisfor membership selection. The principal argumentis that to permit a single member to vetoanother person as a member is essentially undemocraticand obviously a basis for discrimination.It is assumed without evidence that sucha veto will be exercised because of the race, religionor national origin of a prospective member.The argument, of course, ignores the manyinstances in which a person has been blockedfrom membership in a group because of someother factor than race, religion or national origin.It is proposed in some instances that membershipbe determined upon the basis of a majorityvote, a two-thirds vote or a three-fourths vote.Any of these procedures is assumed to be moredemocratic and less discriminatory than unanimousselection. The question is seldom askedwhether there are objectives of a fraternity orsorority which can only be achieved by unanimousselection.I happen to believe in the unanimous selectionpractice, even though 1, as a white, Anglo-Saxon(in spite of the French name), Protestant, haveon several occasions been blackballed for membershipin some organizations.The immediate question for many fraternitiesand sororities is to determine the response theyshall make to these pressures for abandonmentof membership selection on a unanimous votebasis. Of course, the most obvious response is toobject and to point out that a college fraternityor sorority can exist effectively as a group ofyoung persons sworn to live and work closelytogether only when every single individual isobligated to the acceptance and support of everysingle other member. It seems likely that fraternitiesand sororities which select members bymajority vote or even three-fourths vote willbecome quite different organizations from thosewhich now exist. To some persons the changeis exactly what is sought by alteration in themembership selection procedure.It must be evident, however, that objectionalone will not necessarily determine the outcomeof the current controversy about membershipselection. Boards of trustees of a college oruniversity, or a faculty senate or a student councilif delegated such authority by the trustees,may rule that any student organization recognizedby the college or university and obtainingany benefit or service from the institution, shallselect its members upon the basis of majorityvote, two-thirds vote or three-quarters vote. Unlessa national fraternity or sorority is preparedto say that membership selection by its localchapter upon the basis of any locally prescribedprocedure is acceptable to it, then it seems tome the local chapter has only one set of alternativesavailable to it.


72 THE SCROLL of <strong>Phi</strong> <strong>Delta</strong> <strong>Theta</strong> for NOVEMBER, 1969"The college fraternity andsororitymust learn to live and survivein anew college environment. >>The immediate and practical alternative forchapters whose unanimous selection procedureis under attack on a college campus is to disaffiliatefrom the national fraternity or sororityor to disestablish its status as a duly recognizedcollege or university student organization.The one choice means that a local chapter ofa national (or international) fraternity becomesa local organization. The chapter severs its nationalaffiliation and exists henceforth as a localunit without any inter-institutional connectionswith fraternities and sororities on other campuses.The second choice means that a fraternityor sorority chapter becomes a private club andno longer seeks or obtains any assistance fromthe college or university in which the membersmay be students.The authority of a board of trustees, or theauthority of the board's delegated agent, to determinethe conditions and circumstances underwhich a student organization shall exist on acampus is the authority to govern the use whichshall be made of college or university propertyand services. This authority is not likely to bequestioned by a court. Fraternities and sororitieshave in many instances obtained and utilized theproperty or services of the college or universitywhere they ha\ e been located.In some instances a college or university haspurchased land for a fraternity or sorority rowand has leased land to a house corporation for a30 or 40 year period of time or even longer. Thecollege or university may have built the fraternityor sorority houses and simply leased thefacilities to the chapter.The college or university may provide variousservices to fraternities or sororities: assistance inseeking members, a place for social activities,advisors on fraternity and sorority affairs, specialpermission on social activities not available toother groups of students, the auditing of fraternityand sorority accounts, and assistance inthe collection of fraternity and sorority chargesto their members. When a fraternity or sororityaccepts and enjoys the use of college propertyand services, then that fraternity or .sorority isin a poor legal or moral position to indulge innon-violent resistance to college regulations dulyand properly prescribed.It should be pointed out that the close relationshipbetween college administration on theone hand and a fraternity chapter on the otherhand is the product of a college concern for andsupervision of student life which is now rapidlydisappearing all over the country. It is ironicthat at a time when many students are protestingcollege regulation of their personal lives,these same students are demanding that the collegeassert an increased control over student lifeorganizationally evident in fraternities andsororities. But then the student activists of thisday are no more consistent in their attitudes orprinciples than were the college students of myown generation forty years ago!The college fraternity or sorority which wishesto enjoy special college privileges or servicesmay not have any choice except to disaffiliatefrom its national (or international) connection.Thfe issue then is whether a national fraternityor sorority organization does in fact provide anyspecial benefit to a local chapter. Upon the basisof a great deal of experience, I happen to thinkthat the national organization does confer substantialbenefit upon a local chapter: a commonritual which binds persons from many differentcollege campuses in the bond of a commonfriendship, standards of acceptable fraternityconduct, and financial assistance. The valueplaced upon these benefits will depend uponthe judgment of the local chapter and the circumstancesof its college relationship.The other choice is for a college fraternity orsorority to become a private club not dependentupon the property or the services of the collegeits students attend. This is disestablishment, theseverance of any working relationship betweenthe college fraternity and its college. Such disestablishmentis bound to be a considerablewrench, and not an arrangement to be enteredinto lightly. Yet such an arrangement deservescareful consideration.From time to time it has been suggested thatcollege fraternities and sororities singly or jointlyshould legally challenge college regulation of


THE SCROLL of <strong>Phi</strong> <strong>Delta</strong> <strong>Theta</strong> for NOVEMBER, 1969 73their affairs, including membership selection procedures.I think all fraternity and sorority membersare greatly indebted to John C. Trussell,distinguished Chicago attorney, a 1928 graduateof Cornell University and a member of <strong>Delta</strong>Chi fraternity. In the <strong>Delta</strong> Chi Quarterly forFebruary, 1969, he carefully explored the "LegalRights of Fraternities." Trussell asserts that it iswell settled that. colleges and universities haveno power of regulation over private associationswhich do not impair the educational operationor the education environment of the college oruniversity.Trussell bases his entire argument upon theproposition that a college fraternity is a privatesocial organization. He calls attention to the importantdistinction between civil rights and socialprivileges, such as membership in a privatesocial club or fraternity. He cites a considerablenumber of cases involving rights or freedom ofassociation and protection of privacy of associationin organizations.It may be helpful here to quote in full theconclusion of Mr. Trussell:"Thus, it seems clear that since fraternitiesand sororities are private social organizationsthey are not subject to regulationby the state (university) and that itwould be illegal for a university to suspend,expel, or otherwise discipline astudent because of his exercise of the Constitutionalright of free association in joininga social organization whose membershippolicies were not acceptable to theeducational authorities. The university, ofcourse, is not legally required to grantofficial recognition to a fraternity. Itmight, in my opinion, withdraw recognitionand any special benefits or privilegesand possibly housing approval as far asthe fraternity organization is concerned.However, if the individual members ofthe organization chose to continue theirassociation in a private house, financed byprivate funds, I doubt that the universitywould be able to enforce its ruling ofdiscipline against individual members. Indeed,any such action against individualmembers might constitute denial of equalrights of the fraternity member."I might point out, however, that in July afederal district court in the District of Columbiadecided that a private association of colleges engagedin accreditation of members was touchedwith a public interest or function and could notlegally refuse to accept into membership a juniorcollege solely because it was a proprietary, orprofit-making, organization. This case will undoubtedlybe appealed, but the decision suggeststhat private associations may on occasion have apublic role to perform and so be subject to therestraints of public law—in this case the federalanti-trust law.Speaking as a long-time university administratorand not as a lawyer, I find Trussell's argumentsconvincing. But the essence of his argumentis that to be free from regulation by acollege or university, the college fraternity mustoperate as a private association and must separateitself from any use of property or services ofthe college. In effect, he is advocating disestablishmentof the college fraternity.I find this to be an acceptable choice. I thinkit is a realistic choice when colleges and universitiesare moving rapidly in the direction of reducingor eliminating their past close supervisionover the behavior of undergraduate students.In this era of permissive college behavior,it seems to me inconsistent and discriminatoryin practice for colleges to assert the legitimacyof regulation over the organizational behaviorof fraternities and to abandon regulation overthe organizational behavior of other types ofstudent association in organized groups.The college fraternity and sorority must learnto live and survive in a new college environment.It seems to me that this is an environment whichplaces emphasis upon the privacy of studentconduct and association. In such an environment,the college fraternity may well find itsfuture as a private club still linked in the bondsof friendship with similar chapters of collegestudents throughout the United States andCanada.•"The immediate and practical alternative for. . . chapters whose selectionprocedure is imder attack ... is todisaffiliate ... or disestablish."

Subsequently he flew to theU.S. for consultations with officials before returningto his post in Rio.The ambassador described his kidnappers as"young, very determined, intelligent fanatics"who had "very little good to say" about the Braziliangovernment or the U.S. A three-man militaryjunta had taken control of the Braziliangovernment in early September.Elbrick said the kidnappers told him that violencewas the only viable form of political actionin Brazil. U.S. embassy spokesmen in Riosaid Elbrick had been kept in a room about 9by 12 feet. His captors gave him cigars andwashed the shirt he wore."To coin the understatement of the year,"said Elbrick upon his release, "I'm glad to beback."The Kentucky native joined the foreign servicein 1931 and served first as vice counsul atPanama. He rose steadily in the ranks and in1958 he was named U.S. Ambassador to Portugal,a post he held until 1964 when he wasnamed to a similar post in Yugoslavia.

80 THE SCROLL of <strong>Phi</strong> <strong>Delta</strong> <strong>Theta</strong> for NOVEMBER, 1969lawyers argue that the air, and its law, is akinto the territorial waters (that surrounding a nation)and therefore maritime law is more suitable.What law does come into being will not be awholesale lifting from earth laws. Space lawwill be adapted to the fact pattern of needsthat are found and created. Earth laws presentlyexisting will serve either as portions ofthe law or as examples and inspirations.The United Nations has, in the past, passedseveral resolutions concerning space, the moonand celestial bodies, and peace. But, the UnitedNations cannot enforce its resolutions, and theyare not law. Apparently, this realization is behindlater U.N. activity. For, acting as a deliberatebody it formulated a treaty, which waspresented to the nations for signature. Our treatyWas specifically concerned with outer space andthe moon. Its resounding title is the "Treaty onPrinciples Governing the Activities of States inthe Exploration and Use of Outer Space, Includingthe Moon and Other Celestial Bodies,"but here it will be called "Treaty." A treaty, unlikea U. N. resolution, is more than moral per'suasion. In the U.S. a treaty has the force oflaw as is stated in the Constitution.ary not having an abrupt location. Therewould be air, and sovereignty, and then a contiguouszone, where certain things dependingon use Would be legal or illegal, and then maiiymiles up, say about 600 miles or so> outer spacewould begin. In outer space there is no sover^eignty.Space TravelIt is coming, and Buck Rogers, Flash Gordon,as well as Jules Verne characters, all have attemptedto see into its form. There will beproblems:Marriages may be made in HeavenBut not in outer space;A boy and girl who were statelessDecided to marry while weightless;But after their hoverin'Where no one was sovereignThey came back still legally mateless.The unknown bard's poetry illustrates a civillaw problem. Maritime law can be looked tofor a solution, and probably will be. Thismeans that space craft will fly a flag. Presently,according to the Treaty noted before, thelaunching nation will control and have jurisdic-Space^It Doesn't BeginIn discussing the Treaty, or space law, thelogical thing is to note where the law begins.This is a boundary matter, and the boundaryhas never been agreed to. In sea law it was theone sea league, or three nautical-mile limit ofBynkershoek's that came into being. In spacelaw, something will evolve. Seemingly ahead asto a boundary is a limit about 52 miles or soup. The reason is that there is a complicatedformula based on aerodynamic lift that receivedwide support, and space records as distinguishedfrom air records begin just above thispoint.The nations cannot openly agree on a beginningfor space for such reasons as defense andoffense. For example, the U-2 airplane in makingreconnaisance flights was considered bymany (but not all) as illegal because it was anairplane and flying by air means. A reconnaisancesatellite has not been objected to, primarilyperhaps because no nation can do anythingabout it.Suppose an air-space plane (an advance overthe X-I5) could fly at reconnaisance satellitelevel, and this level was in that agreed to asspace. Could the plane be shot down if a nationcould do this? It might be a nation would notwant to be hampered in its defensive measures.There is a possibility of the air-space bound­VJ * >^*-r*•.-•#'J^X'^i

There will come timeswhen one nation will launch a space craft foranother nation, probably carrying people of severalnations on board.' Then, the (flag may bethat of the nation for whom the space craft waslaunched.Civil law problems will abound. The makingof a will can be a concern, and if the law ofrelativity does mean that a son on earth can ageand live out his life while his space-wanderingfather remains relatively young, the complicationsincrease.Crimes will be carried into space probably,and law to handle these must be brought up orcreated. /Other Living BeingsAlthough currently we dismiss the prospect offinding a higher level of life than we of earth,or even of finding any level of life, the endlessouter space being so large, even this possibilitycannot be dismissed. One space law authorcreated the term "metalaw" for law spanningboth earth civilization and that of other worlds.He rejected the Golden Rule, and the otherearth-similar guides as being starkly anthropocentric.He proposed a new metalaw rule that,"We must do unto others as they would havedone unto them." He explained that, "to treatothers as we would desire to be treated mightwell mean their destruction. We must treatthem as they desire to be treated." With the author'sdeath, and the increasing knowledge oflife probability on other celestial bodies, metalawhas slowly drifted away in legal space writings.But, it is there should the need arise forconsideration.Moon BasesThe thought of bases on the moon is farfrom inconceivable. Major publications havepictured complete sub-towns busy with activity.Lord Russell notes that in Russian literaturethere is the thought of turning lunar rocks intogases and gradiially cireating a pseudo atmosphere.Once an atmosphere has been aeated,they believe water could be created.The importance of this extends beyond man'scuriosity. Some military leaders avow that thenation which controls the moon will control theearth. This is akin to the "Heartland theory"that prevailed among some in World War II.According to the Heartland theory, the nationthat controlled a certain area, the Balkans,controlled the world island, Europe, and whocontrolled the world island controlled theworld.The treaty noted before deals with the moonbase and bases on other "celestial bodies." In essence,each nation is to use a base for peacefulmeans only, though military personnel mayman the bases; inspection is to be granted on abasis of reciprocity; and no appropriation ofniooli-land is to be made. The Treaty thoughhas several loopholes. Space lawyers have interpreted"peaceful purposes" to mean "nonaggressive,"thus defensive military means areproper. Military personnel manning a basemeans a rapid switch from "scientific research"to military non-defensive measures seems possible.The inspection on the basis of reciprocitymeans that if inspection is not granted, all thatcan occur is talk between the nations concerned.There is no enforcement provision oreven a procedure for dispute settling. The appropriationaspect can raise problems. The takingof a few rocks for scientific view is onething, but with time possibly the mineral resourcescan, and will, be exploited. Also, thebuilding of a multi-billion dollar (ruble) basewould not be given away, so in both miningand base building an appropriation in factmust take place.As though this were not enough, any nation


82 THE SCROLL of <strong>Phi</strong> <strong>Delta</strong> <strong>Theta</strong> for NOVEMBER, 1969not satisfied with the Treaty can withdraw onone year's notice—ample time if diplomatic-politicalor military needs require or seem to requirehistory as a guide, is that the Treatywould either be bent or ignored as to parts thatare disturbing.Orbiting SpaceportsThe manned orbiting laboratory, also knownas a way-station of space, a space station and aspaceport, is subject to even less restrictions bythe Treaty. By law built up before, it is likelythe spaceport would be considered akin to avessel on the high seas, and subject to exclusivejurisdiction of the nation concerned. The Treatycarries forth this concept of national control. Itadds that nuclear or other mass destruction, weapons are not to be installed, but it does notsay spaceports must be used only for peacefulpurposes as it does for moon bases.The concept of orbiting spaceports solely formilitary purposes, pure and simple, is legal. Ifthe mass destruction nuclear bomb is prohibited,the powerful laser beam substitute is not.<strong>No</strong> inspection concept is present, even on theweak basis of reciprocity as with moon bases.Secrecy is guaranteed.A non-Treaty member is discriminatedagainst, for if 'Treaty sigiiers obey the Treatythey will take "due regard" for the rights ofTreaty signers. Those outside the signaturelines are outside the pale.The manned orbiting spaceports, aroundearth or moon, can be helpful in navigation(for peace, then for war), reconnaisance (defensivethen aggressive), and weather forecasting(for farmers' aid and then military prowess).Some Space Age Possibilities for LawWith technological advances law will follow.It cannot and should not lead. Facts should bein hand for the development of law, and allfacts are not in. To act with speed, fieliberateor accidental, for the sake of having law wouldbe a mistake. Frustrating as it may be, our syistemof law, and the world's systems, react toneeds and not to possibilities or probableneeds. Experience tempers thought.Space law will be based on earth Jaw, for thatis our only point of reference. It will not be a"metalaw" even if so called. Probably it willtake concepts from the sea law and from the airlaw as best suits need. If fact, it seems not unlikelythat air law will become a part of spacelaw, much as the horse-and-buggy travel todayis subordinated to the motor vehicle laws envelopingall surface personal travel.The law will be between nations, and individualsof each nation will look to its nationfor redress of any problems. <strong>No</strong> super-nationalor international agency, be it the United Nationsor another, will control. Although theremay be cooperative aspects, akin to internationalmail movement and others, actual controlwill be by the nations concerned. The internationalcenter that might develop will concernitself with space administrative details suchas registration files, records attained, and otherdetails.The law will be among the nations and willproceed as reflecting the willingness of adjustmentof the nations and their peoples. As earliernoted, there are two fears guiding nations.There is the force of fear and the force ofgreed. Fear refers to enforcement and greed isthat of mutual interest. In any space law development,these forces will be determinative.Those nations which do not have space agecapacity will be bypassed in law development,although discussion may be had, privately or inthe United Nations, and good thoughts from'any source or nation may be adopted by the;space age capacity nations. But, the law that ismade will be the law that is respected, and forthis law the mighty nations will be its instigatorsand its guardians.•

In 1891 the francs were worthabout $20,000, and if invested as dollars at fourper cent a year, would now be worth about$400,000.NASA lawyers said they didn't know anythingabout it, but added that there was no reasonwhy Armstrong could not accept the legacy.In late September the three astronauts andtheir wives undertook a 38-day, 22 nation worldtour that included Mefxico, South America,western Europe, Yugoslavia, Turkey, theCongo, Iran, India, Pakistan, Thailand, Australia,Korea and Japan.They presented each country a replica of themoon landing plaque bearing the inscription,"We came in peace for all mankind," and signedby each astronaut and the President. •The photo of Apollo 11 Commander Armstrong, above left, was taken inside the LunarModule while the LM, rested on the lunar surface and is courtesy of NASA.

This is difficultto judge. On the basis of critiques completedby the participants, the answer is yes.More yes in the East than the West, however.Forty per cent of the critiques in the Eastcalled the conference very effective and 58 percent said it was effective, while in the Westonly 22 per cent called it very effective and70 per cent put down effective. The remainingpercentages at each conference said the sessionswere not effective.Tangible results from the conferences willshow in better chapter management, better organizationand generally improved leadershipdown the line in the chapters.•

(Vanderbilt '29),who became U.S. Ambassador to Denmarkin May, brings a new aura to the traditionalrole of the Tennessean in the political life ofour country.A member of the international jet set, animaginative and influential businessman, askilled horseman with racing stables on bothsides of the Atlantic and an accomplished authorand painter, Ambassador Dudley brings anarray of talents to his new post.In 1931 he joined Life and Casualty, a companyhis father had helped to found. His recordthere in the sale of ordinary life insurance by adebit agent, over a million dollars in sales inhis first year, has never been equaled. He hasheld major offices in life insurance organizationsas well as the presidency of L&C and subsidiarycorporations which include a televisionstation, a radio station and a city magazine.He was named president of the insurancecompany in 1952. Under his leadership thecompany expanded from a regional to a nationallyrespected company operating in 28 stateswith $492 million in assets and $3.5 billion inlife insurance in force, housed in the 31-storylandmark tower that was for a decade Nashville'sonly skyscraper.The company recently became the stellarcompany in the American General Groupbased in Houston.One of a handful of key figures in a citywhich is known as the financial center of theSouth, Dudley initiated efforts to involve thecompany he headed in the life of Nashville'spoor. As part of a billion-dollar life insuranceindustry pledge to invest money in limitedprofit ventures which attack social ills, Dudleyallocated $1 million for the predominatelyblack community of <strong>No</strong>rth Nashville split bythe last leg of an interstate.Nashville as a community will miss the newambassador. He has been active and unafraidto take a stand on crucial issues which concernthe city.

He and his wife have longbeen two of the city's foremost supporters ofthe arts.Long a loyal Republican who has been statefinance chairman in the past several nationaland state elections, Dudley looks forward to histenure in Copenhagen. A favorite quote fromJohn Masefield, which also gave him the titlefor his book ("The Skyline Is A Promise," Holt,Rinehart and Winston, 1966), perhaps best describeshis attitude:". . . the quarry never foundIs still a fever to the questing hound.The skyline is a promise, not a bound."

For Denver BroncosVan Heusen Makes The Grade As A ProTHERE were 1,020 professional football playersin the American and National FootballLeagues during the 1968-69 season. Most of themwere veterans, the others were young, starry-eyedrookies. There were 640 players in the NFL and380 in the AFL.Rookies in professional football are classifiedin two categories; those who were draftedand those who have, for some reason or another,asked for a tryout. They go to campknown as free agents.Bill Van Heusen (Maryland 69) was one ofthe select 380 in the AFL. He made it the hardway, as a free agent rookie with the DenverBroncos. Of the 380 AFL players in 1968, only23 made dubs as free agents. Of the 640 NFLplayers, 37 free agents survived the final cutto the active roster.Van Heusen, a 6-foot-l, 200 pounder fromMamaroneck, N.Y., had a brilliant career atMaryland. As in a lot of cases with footballplayers. Van Heusen suffered a knee injury hisjunior year and had surgery after the season.His senior year, he was used sparingly as areceiver but did all the punting for the Terrapins.In 1966, his junior year, Van Heusen andquarterback Alan Pastrana teamed to formthe best passing combination in the AtlanticCoast Conference.By Joe BlairBecause of the knee injury, pro scoutsshunned him. He waited through the 17 draftrounds of the 26 teams and didn't get a call."Bad knee," they all said. This only made VanHeusen more determined to sign with a teamas a free agent and to make the team.But Van Heusen didn't have to go hunting.Shortly after the draft, he received a call fromthe man that coached him his junior year atMaryland, Lou Saban, now head coach andgeneral manager of the Denver Broncos. Heasked Van Heusen to join him with the Denverteam. Bill received a contract from Saban a.few days later, signed it quickly, and sent itback air-mail special delivery.To make a long story short, he made itwith the Broncos and made it big.Saban had this to say about his prize rookie—the free agent rookie:"Billy Van Heusen had a tremendous yearfor us. He is a fine receiver with good movesand quickness and a lot of football savvy. Someof his moves against veteran defensive backslooked as though he had been in the league along time. He made some sensational catches;he catches well in a crowd."Another of his abilities that could keep himaround a long time is his punting. His passcatching and punting make him a valuablecommodity in pro football. He won the puntingjob from a long-time veteran and finishedthe season second in the league with a 43.8average for 88 punts. He caught 19 passes for353 yards and three touchdowns as the swingwide receiver.As Saban pointed out, "His kicking was thebest in the league." Final statistics show theBroncos were number one in the league inallowing the fewest yards and number of puntsreturned. That comes only from fine punting—high and long and proper placement againstthe opponent. That is what Van Heusen did.In preseason drills this year Van Heusencame up with some muscle pulls that hamperedhim during the early weeks. As the 1969-70season got under way this fall he was theBroncos' top punter and number one reserveflanker.•Bill Van Heusen (Maryland '69)[107]The author is a public relations man for theWashington Redsliins of the NFL, but xerote thisstory on Van Heusen for friends in the Maryland<strong>Phi</strong> chapter.

The author says three goals were presentin writing the book. The first was to show when arbitrationshould be sought as a means to resolve a dispute.The second was to set down in sufficient detail, but notover detail, an analysis of what is done in arbitration andhow it proceeds. The third aim was to note what occurs toan award after the disputed matter has been heard. Anadditional fourth goal could be percei\ed, namely to in.elude a comprehensive summary of arbitration laws, rulesand related information.Although the book is directed to the non-attorney, itcan be perused with profit by attorneys seeking arbitrationprocedural guidance. Other books in the arbitrationfield do not carry the emphasis on procedure, both theoreticaland practical, that is presented here.The book is short as required by a publisher's pagelimitation.

The articles"Due Process on College Campuses,""Are We Listening?", "Drug Abuse,"and "Campus Religion Still a Force"represent the type of journalistic effortwhich merits the attention offraternity men and college men everywhere.Ira Lee Andrews IIIDean of StudentsRandolph-Macon CollegeJEFFREY HUNTEROn May 27, 1969, well-knownmovie actor Jeffrey Hunter (<strong>No</strong>rthwestern'50) passed away. He was 42.Those of us at <strong>No</strong>rthwestern knewhim by his real name, Henry McKinnies.We, like the rest ot his friends,called him Hank. Besides being abrother in the Bond, he was somethingextra to us.I cannot let him join the ChapterGrand (see <strong>Scroll</strong>, 9-69-57) withoutmentioning to everyone who did notknow him personally, how reallyextra special he was. I am certainthat all the <strong>Phi</strong>s who were close tohim remember Hank as one of themost splendid, decent and selflessmen they ever knew.Hank was chapter president whenWe begin on the next threepages a noble effort at furthercommunication amongst ourreaders—a regular "Letter tothe Editor" section in THESCROLL. Its continuance, andany ground rules concerning itsuse, will await a look at howthese first sections are received.While we let some longer lettersinto this initial section just toget the ball rolling, we ask thatin the future you keep lettersto a 200-word maximum.A "Letter to the Editor" sectioncan be an extremely effectiveinstrument ot communication.But, to be so it must beused. Please feel free.I was president of the pledge class.Because ot personal reasons, I consideredleaving the University. Hank gotup at 6 a.m. on the day I was toleave, ate breakfast with me, droveme to the railroad station andargued me into staying even as mytrain arrived. It was a turning pointin my life.A tew months later, one of ourmost unsentimental brothers smiledat me, just after Hank left the room,and said, "You still can't believe it,can you?"I asked him what he meant.[116]He explained, "You still can't believea guy can be that great, thatunselfish. I was doubtful too, butthen, after a year or sp, I was con-,vinced. That's the way he really is!"Yes, that is the way we knew himat <strong>No</strong>rthwestern..\ couple of years ago. Hank ivasstarring in a play near Chicago, andsome of the brothers arranged aparty for him. The turnout was terrific.Ot course, many of the wiveswanted to meet a movie star, but hisbrothers came primarily as tribute toa man they respected and for whomthey had a great deal of affection.While this small tribute is woefullyinadequate, let me say that I amproud to have known him. I amproud that he was a brother in theBond.<strong>Phi</strong> <strong>Delta</strong> <strong>Theta</strong> is magnificentbecause of the men who make upit membership. Certainly, Henry"Hank" McKinnies was one ot thefinest.Lee Riordan<strong>No</strong>rthwestern '5/WELL DONECongratulations on the May SCROLL.The articles are excellent and welldone. I'll be interested in what kindot response you receive from yourreaders.John E. Thompson


THE SCROLL of <strong>Phi</strong> <strong>Delta</strong> <strong>Theta</strong> for NOVEMBER, 1969 117POOR TASTESome years ago I wrote THE SCROLLto protest the bad taste of publishinga photograph showing <strong>Phi</strong> <strong>Delta</strong><strong>Theta</strong> vandalism in Egypt. I was assuredat that time that such lapsesare regrettable and ought to beavoided.A picture in the May issue, althoughnot such a flagrant violationof good taste, is offensive to me andprobably to many other readers. Butentirely apart from the question ofwhether or not the item in questionis offensive, it is, I think, clear thatit is not important enough to warranta full page in THE SCROLL.I refer to the photograph of theproud, grinning hunters with theirslaughtered deer. The magazine hasalways been devoted in large measureto the achievements of members ofthe Fraternity, and these achievementshave been varied and impressive.I submit, however, that the"achievement" of Hauer and Tillettdoes not qualify them to more spacethan is usually allotted to judges,senators, scientists, diplomats and topbusiness executives.T. C. DunhamOhio Wesleyan '29WELL DONEAs an old <strong>Phi</strong> I am proud of theMay <strong>Scroll</strong> and thought to add mysecond tenor to the swelling accoladefor a job well donel After all, isn'tthe cry today that we don't communicate?<strong>No</strong>rman T. BollesMichigan 'ISLARGER PRINTI think I rather like the new formatof the May SCROLL. I only wishthe print was larger, for even withreading glasses it's a strain on 77-year-old eyes.I read with interest the articles oncampus behavior but when I stop toconsider them in the light of my experienceat Georgia Tech from 1907-1912, it makes me feel as though Iwas living in another world. I havealways tried to keep abreast of thenews and it seems to me that thenearer we get to Socialism, the moredisorganized our whole civil life becomes.The idea of having the studentsvote on the running of a college,to me, is about like having theprivates in the Army vote on the operationsof a war or the workers in afactory vote on its management, althoughI must admit that under thepresent union strength, that is justabout the situation.It is difficult for me to imagine thereaction that would have been had amob stormed into the office of ourpresident. Dr. K. G. Mathewson, aWest Point graduate. The Rev. Hesburghof <strong>No</strong>tre Dame and our Japaneseprofessor at San Francisco Stateseem to be the only two heads of collegescapable of handling the currentdisturbances.And yet I do recognize a gripe ofthe students, the total impersonalityof the relationship between the studentsand the professors. The reasonfor this is the tremendous increase inthe enrollment of students withoutan adequate supply of capable professors.In the effort to meet the situationour educational institutes haveattempted to borrow from our bigindustries and put education on theassembly line, so that now when astudent enrolls in one of the greateducational factories, he becomes justanother bolt or nut in a big machine.<strong>No</strong>w at the risk of being considerednarrowminded and prejudiced, Iam going to make a personal observation.I have never believed thatoutside of allowing the students ahappy bit of premarital experience,that anything has been gained by coeducationalinstitutes. In my day wedid all of our necking on Saturdayand Sunday and a girl in a man'sdormitory was beyond our wildestimagination. To me it is just notpossible to mix boys and girls at theage when their blood is the hottestand expect them to devote theproper interest in studies.My second belief is that the integrationof the two races in college,no matter how idealistic and altruisticit may be, has furnished the mainsource of disturbance. It is interestingto note that the major disturbanceshave been in direct ratio tothe number of blacks in the college.It grieves me to see the discontentand violence spreading over what wasonce such a wonderful country. Itwould seem that the more progressivewe become the less civilized we get.Maybe it is just the natural course ofevolution.Robert H. FlournoyGeorgia Tech '12MOST WELCOMECongratulations on the recentchange in editorial policy, as reflectedin the May SCROLL. I feel that for toolong the Fraternity has seen the lossof some of its oldest chapters on thefiner campuses in this country, withvirtually no comment. A series of articleson the present campus scene,by well informed individuals—notjust apologists for the fraternity system-willbe most welcome to this<strong>Phi</strong>.Joseph B. DeedsFlorida '60READ WITH INTERESTThe May SCROLL is the first issue ofthat magazine that I have read withany interest in a long time. It showsthe beginnings of an awareness ofwhat is going on in colleges today. Ihope you will continue with this lineand try to bring the Fraternity intosome kind of relevance with modernsociety. THE SCROLL has been for toolong a list of irrelevant achievementsby people who didn't really matteron our campuses.Joseph A. SchufleAkron '38ENJOY CHANGEI have been reading The <strong>Scroll</strong> forseveral years but especially enjoyedthe May issue because of your changein editorial policy. Lets have morearticles along this new line.James HancockColorado '56HIGHLY COMMENDABLEThe May SCROLL is the first issue Ihave read with great interest in along time. Your new editorial policyis to be highly commended, and Ilook forward to future issues. I personallyhope that you will continuearticles surveying the campus scene,similar to those in the May issue; butI also look forward to articles on nationalissues.Frank L. WrightWashington '}8STIMULATING ARTICLESJust a note to express my appreciationfor the welcome "shift of content"which was introduced in theMay SCROLL.I think I speak for many of thealumni when I report that feature articleswhich are stimulating andthought provoking add new life tothe official publication of <strong>Phi</strong> <strong>Delta</strong><strong>Theta</strong>. Very frankly, for the past fewyears I have not spent more than fiveminutes an issue glancing throughTHE SCROLL. However, with the adventof some relevant, exciting, and controversialarticles, my interest andreading time increased immenselywith the May issue.Rev. Harold C. Liphart Jr.Ohio Wesleyan '57REGISTER DISPLEASUREThis letter is written on behalf ofthe Jacksonville, Fla,, Alumni Clubto register our displeasure with thecover of, and certain articles withinthe May SCROLL.

118 THE SCROLL of <strong>Phi</strong> <strong>Delta</strong> <strong>Theta</strong> for NOVEMBER, 1969stad; "Are We Listening," author AlNeuharth; "Time to Stop the <strong>No</strong>nsenseon Campus," Washington Posteditorial; "15 minutes to Meditate:An open Letter from the Rev. Hesburgh;"and "Drug Abuse," Smith,Kline and French magazine, collectivelyrepresenting 30% of this edition.We agree with you that THE SCROLLis read by a select and elite group ofcollege educated men. These men arewell read individuals and are at leastcognizant of current events. Consideringthen, that virtually every publicationissued for the general publiccontains articles of similar nature asthose above, the publication of thesearticles in THE SCROLL was anythingbut new to your readers. You havenot provided something that was notalready abundantly available.You further state in "The Editor's 'Words" that the articles are to relateto the fraternity system in generaland problems within <strong>Phi</strong> <strong>Delta</strong><strong>Theta</strong>. We found nothing within thesearticles that accomplishes this purposeand feel that the statementis merely an excuse to allow theexpression of personal interest bymembers of your staff. We resent thisimposition. Furthermore, the authorsof these articles were not <strong>Phi</strong>s, andallowing them space in our magazineis almost as offensive as allowingthem attendance at chapter meetings.The opinion of our club is thatwhereas the information containedwithin these articles is informative tosome members of our Fraternity, wedo not feel that our Fraternity magazineshould be used for this purpose.THE SCROLL should be used for thegeneral business and information ofthe Fraternity, should be written byand for members of the Fraternity,and should be strictly confinedthereto.Robert G. HendersonAlabama '65ABOUT TIMEIt's about time THE SCROLL printedopinions on the issues. I'm somewhatpleased as well as surprised that theeditors should take notice of our involvementin Vietnam, the studentunrest, the drug dilemma, and etc.Previously I assumed that your (our)magazine was concerned only withthe robber barons and homogenizeddagwoods, all brothers, of course,who have graced the world by wearingtheir swords and shields as theyfeed the war effort, condemn thecollege liberals and force minoritymembers into squalor and self-hate.If that's what brotherhood is, thenone of us is tragically mistaken.The way that you omit the mostsignificant issue is a flawless testimonialof the ignorance that characterizes<strong>Phi</strong> <strong>Delta</strong> <strong>Theta</strong> and the wholefraternity system. It's a dying institution,brother, and you'd best admitit. It's perfectly obvious why youchose not to comment on the raceissue. Even if you personally advocateracial equality, you're too chicken topublish your views because you knowwhat a furor it would cause amongthe brotherhood.Bigoted <strong>Phi</strong> racists would protestvehemently if you sullied the whitepages of THE SCROLL with wastefulbanter about the dirty nigger. Thetimes, the morals, and yes, even thelaws, are rapidly changing. This isn'tNazi Germany or the U.S. in the 20sand 30s, this is 1969, brother, andpeople are trying to better themselvesand their brothers. Stepping on ablack man or excluding him maymake you feel like you are better,but can't you see that it's just takingthe easy way out?I realize that nothing I say willchange your minds, but the superioritythat <strong>Phi</strong> <strong>Delta</strong> <strong>Theta</strong> preachesabout itself will cause, and is causing,more problems than its worth.Please—consider the true meaning ofBROTHERHOOD, and then striveto achieve it.Charles L. PrestonWhitman '71ARTICLES INTERESTINGThe articles on political and socialproblems in the May SCROLL are indeedinteresting.I understand that these are notnecessarily the views of either theFraternity or the editor. However, Ido think in presenting pros and consa little more effort should be madeto obtain both sides of the issue.Today, it is accepted that those involvedin the social and political issuesof our day are divided into twocamps—the left (Socialists, the newleft. Communists, one worlders, etc.)and the right (conservatives andanti-Communists). Aside from thelegal angle, as discussed by Hans Borstadand the unknown author of thearticle on drug abuse, you have notoffered us opinions of those on eachside of this political question.It is true that Rev. Theodore Hesburghhas given us a common senseand workable solution to the problem.Exactly whether his views arestrictly conservative I do not know.Certainly the New York Times'James Reston cannot by any stretchof the imagination be considered asanything but a member of the multitudeon the left. I think everythinghe says and writes is dedicated to theglorification of the Socialist viewpoint.All of these articles are purportedto be from people who are authoritieson the issues of the day.I write you feeling that someexpression of opinion shoiild be receivedfrom a person who is not anauthority—does not pretend to be anauthority in any field except in generalliving.The protests and disagreements ofthe young at the collegiate level areno different than the protests and rebellionsthat have occurred in thisage group since the beginning otWestern civilization. Recall the roaring20's and the flapper generation?The problem exists because each generationfeels let down and discouragedbecause the parents have failedto live up to or follow the religiousand spiritual doctrines which theyheld out to their children as necessary.This is what Sinclair Lewis wastrying to tell us when he wrote duringthat period.Until we either decide to acceptthe original doctrine, as establishedby the Fundamentalist Churches ofthe Christian faith, or launch out ona brand new spiritualistic conceptionof God as the Originator of Controllerof all of our affairs, there willcontinue to be chaos and unrest andprotests.This present period of unrest has aleadership which is devoted to worldslavery and the utter destruction ofour present education, religious, politicaland financial systems. This isCommunism. The various leaderswhose names you hear and see inprint in relation to violence are allCommunists or are being used byCommunists.I submit that if we accept that theusual student unrest and protestswhich typifies every generation isnow in progress (no more and noless); but, that this present one ishighly dangerous due to the presenceof Communist leadership on the campus,then we will have no trouble inknowing how to handle the situation.At any rate, we are at a crossroadsnow of our civilization, and I willsubmit that either all will be lost inconfusion and surrendering of theaims and hopes that have been withus since the beginning of this Countryor else we are going to revise theold beliefs or gain new ones andreally live by them and go on to betterand more permanent things.Clarence B. Foster, M.D.Vermont '29

Anarchy Is Just For TodayBy Jenkin Lloyd JonesI HE board of directors of <strong>Phi</strong> Gamma <strong>Delta</strong>Fraternity has unanimously passed the followingresolution:"WHEREAS, this fraternity views withstrong disapproval the tendency of some collegesand universities to acquiesce in a generallowering of standards of conduct amongtheir students; and"WHEREAS, the affirmative action of somecollege and university administrators In approvingthe use of intoxicants on the campus, .abolishing curfew time for women students,permitting visitations by members of the oppositesex In sleeping rooms and condoningthe use of narcotics results In the destructionof morals; and"WHEREAS, some of these same administratorshave allowed anarchy to prevail onthe campus to the Irreparable loss and damageto the college or university and the majorityof the students;"NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVEDthat this fraternity calls upon these administrationsto recognize that morals are not outof date, but that they are basic standards ofhuman conduct, divinely Inspired to promotethe dignity of man and the sanctity of thefamily relationship."Square? Sure. Thirty years ago who wouldhave thought college fraternities would belooked upon as square?But that was before the age of swinging professorsand militants bearing guns. It was beforethe idea that the administration should serve asservants to ad hoc committees and the theorythat pot and casual sex were extensions of theBill of Rights. In contrast to this high trapezework, the average college fraternity swings low.The <strong>Phi</strong> Gamma <strong>Delta</strong> directors have put theirfingers on a truth. A college that succumbs tothe bullying of the loud, the violent and the ignorantgets out of the education business. Andthe majority of students, who come, not to confrontthe pigs, but to learn a lot of pretty complicatedstuff in a very short time are robbed ofthe promise of the catalog.The college that is bluffed out of laying downreasonable rules of conduct peddles the idea thatat the animal level of behavior there is happiness,fulfillment and a flowering of the personality.If so, the court of Caligula was the goldenage of Rome and the alleys off the Ginza representthe acme of Japanese civilization.You've got to have rules—even if you were benton revolution.For most interesting is the discovery by theNew Left, itself, that anarchy doesn't work.The September issue of Ramparts magazine,the voice of what is hopefully described as aThird World (something about Communismwith complete humanity), carries an article aboutthis summer's riotous convention of the Studentsfor a Democratic Society at the Chicago Coliseum.The writer, Paul Glusman, a Berkeley SDSactivist, sadly described the three days of splits,secessions, excommunications and walk-outs.According to Glusman the Progressive LaborParty had been infiltrating the SDS and plannedto seize the convention. Alarmed, the SDS NationalOffice formed something called the RevolutionaryYouth Movement to give PL battle.At the Chicago affair PL sympathizers keptdrowning out SDS speakers by chanting "Mao,Mao, Mao tse-Tung!" Whereupon RYM shoutersbawled "Ho Ho Ho Chi Minh, Dare to Struggle,Dare to Win!"This intelligent debate ended only after SDSthrew out PL by resolution, but then marchedhuffily away, leaving PL in possession of the hall.Criticizing the SDS for lacking discipline andoften behaving merely "as a debating society,"Glusman expressed worry that PL might drainaway many SDS members because it offered theiron regimentation of the old Communist parties.It is worth noting that the archons of <strong>Phi</strong>Gamma <strong>Delta</strong> and Mr. Glusman of SDS, althoughthey have utterly conflicting aims, seemto agree on one fundamental thing:Chaos is a temporary condition that must destroyitself.Man abhors confusion. He can take it only fora little while. Either our colleges are going tohave to show the guts to teach school in the faceof patent sabotage and lay down some reasonablevalue judgments for the guidance of theyoung, or a confused and rudderless generationwill look around for its new Hitler.Anarchy is just for today.•The author of this column, in addition to beinga member of <strong>Phi</strong> Gamma <strong>Delta</strong> Fraternity, is editorand publisher of the Tulsa (Okla.)

MG Policy On Unfriendly CampusesWhat follows is an excerpt from the minutes of <strong>Phi</strong> <strong>Delta</strong> <strong>Theta</strong>'s GeneralCouncil meeting in Boston, Mass., Oct. 4-5, 1969, at which the Councildrafted this policy to deal with situations where student, faculty or administrativepressures are brought to bear upon a <strong>Phi</strong> <strong>Delta</strong> <strong>Theta</strong> chapterso as to abrogate the basic rights of the Fraternity.22. Upon motion duly made and seconded, theCouncil voted unanimously to approve thefollowing policy statement:Since its birth on Dec. 26, 1848, <strong>Phi</strong> <strong>Delta</strong><strong>Theta</strong> has continually endeavored to cooperatewith administrative, faculty and student groupson the campuses where it has been located. Thisrelationship has, in most cases, been a close andwarm one with mutual respect and joint effortfor campus goals.Examples of this joint effort are found wherecampus and fraternity policy have stressed theimportance of scholarship to the student: Penaltiesand restrictions on individual members andthe entire chapter have been jointly enforced ifstated scholastic attainments were not met. Otherexamples are found in situations where disciplinarymeasures had to be taken—always in jointconcert with both parties; and in <strong>Phi</strong> <strong>Delta</strong><strong>Theta</strong> regulations which prohibit use of drugs ina chapter house, which restrict use of alcoholicbeverages in agreement with campus rulings, andwhich urge full cooperation with campus activitiesand events.Unfortunately, there are times when pressureexerted by student, faculty, or administrativegroups seeks to change the basic operation of anindividual chapter of <strong>Phi</strong> <strong>Delta</strong> <strong>Theta</strong>. There aretimes when efforts are made to abrogate thebasic rights of association for the members of anindividual chapter on a specific campus.It is for these rare instances that the followingpolicy is outlined.1. When the continued association of membersin a chapter of <strong>Phi</strong> <strong>Delta</strong> <strong>Theta</strong> is threatenedby a ruling on recognition of student organizationsand activities, the first step will bethe preparation of a report by the General Fraternityto review both the institution and theFraternity point of view. This summary will beprepared with the assistance of legal counsel retainedby the General Fraternity. The reportwill inform active members of the chapter, chapteralumni and others of all pertinent facts in agiven situation. Hopefully, this information willencourage active members, alumni and othersto take appropriate action based upon the factsof the individual situation.2. Legal counsel retained by the General Fraternitywill be available to consult with activemembers, the house corporation officers andalumni officers about a desirable course of actionin any particular circumstance, and willconsult with the General Council about appropriateaction to be taken by the General Fraternity.3. If discussions between active chapter membersand alumni with officers of a college or universityindicate that a local chapter cannot meetthe requirements of the institution for recognitionas a student organization of that institution,then the active chapter may, with the supportand encouragement of the General Council,terminate all affiliation with the institutionand continue to function as an independentchapter of <strong>Phi</strong> <strong>Delta</strong> <strong>Theta</strong>.4. As an independent chapter, the local organizationwill be expected to continue to meetall standards of the General Fraternity includingmembership, financial affairs and social conduct.5. Any legal action to protect the rights ofassociation and to prevent disciplinary actionagainst any student because of such associationcan be undertaken only in the name of the localchapter, in the name of an individual studentor in the name of several individual students.6. Any action by the General Fraternity insupport of a local chapter will be taken only ifsuch action is desired by the members of thelocal chapter and by alumni of the chapter. •

A Long, Hard Look At. . .ffi0n9r?0Bit0nal SrfcrmBy Rep. Richard W. Boiling, D-Mo.Sewanee '37THE United States Congress, once a prizedand honored national assembly, is finallybut slowly making gestures toward repairing itsreputation and improving its operations. It'stoo early yet to tell whether the needed alterationswill in fact take place. The Congress evenin its present somewhat reformist mood movessidewise like a confused sand crab. Nevertheless,increasing numbers of its members are concludingthat reforms are urgently needed if this Nationis to manage successfully its domestic andforeign affairs.There are two aspects to the pressing matterof congressional reform. One relates to theprofessional deportment of each of the 435members of the House of Representatives andeach of the 100 members of the Senate. This aspect,somewhat misleadingly called "ethics", isthe one focused upon by scribblers of syndicatedpolitical gossip who insist the Congress iscomposed either of fools or knaves. This is untrue.The second aspect, the one where real substantialtangible gains are best achieved, lies inthe most general sense in the matter of how theCongress conducts its legislative affairs. NeitherSenate nor House do it well. In large measurethis is a result of the institutional behavior ofthe congressional political parties. Democraticand Republican.The Democrats are the worst offenders by farand they perform the worst in the House whereI have sat for the last 21 years—as a Democrat.In short, I, a Democrat, accuse my party of(continued on page 132)


«« In short, I, aDemocrat, accuse myparty of ineptness andmismanagement of the House[132]ineptness and mismanagement of the House ofRepresentatives, where it has enjoyed a numericalmajority for 35 of the last 39 years. If thisposition of mine seems harsh, it is relativelymild compared to the observation of C. VannWoodward, a notable historian at Johns HopkinsUniversity, who has written that for thepowerful seigneurs and liege lords of the Houseto renounce their inflated privileges would requirethe "greatest wholesale for foreswearingof privilege and preogative since the TennisCourt Oath during the French Revolution."I am not so pessimistic, although I have beenharsh and unsparing in two books I have writtenon the subject of congressional reform,"House Out Of Order" (1965), and "Power InThe House" (1968). I believe that the many talentedand conscientious men and women of theHouse, trapped in a maze of backward congressionalprocedures, rules and customs not oftheir own making, are beginning to understandtheir predicament and will act accordingly.There are in fact, signs of this already.But first let us understand how the House got"out of order." How did this regressive state ofaffairs develop? And why has the congressionalDemocratic Party tolerated the mess?The explanation first entails a summary ofthe history of the Congress. The 1st Congressthat met in New York City in the spring of1789 was composed of extraordinarily able men.Many were young. Most were experienced. Afew had directed rebellion against the colossusGreat Britain. Many had spent long and tumultuousdays and nights debating what would becomethe seminal documents of our Nation—the Constitution being one. The early years ofthe Congress were rewarding ones, too, for thecitizens of our young nation. To serve in thenational legislature was an honor. As a newmember of the House of Representatives, JohnQuincy Adams, a former President, wrote in hisdiary that he had never been so honored in hispublic career as when his fellow townsmen ofBraintree asked that he serve them in the Congress.Adams served there for the remainder ofhis life—he was stricken and died in the Housewing of the Capitol itself.In sum, the House of Representatives prospersto the degree it enjoys capable and responsiblemembers and, particularly, when it wasruled by able Speakers. First elected in 1811,Henry Clay of Kentucky was an outstandingSpeaker, the standard by which for many yearshis successors were judged, although he isjudged more severely for his performances inconnection with other national public issues.Republican Thomas Brackett Reed of Maine,a 275-pound man with ability as large as hisgirth, was a superb Speaker during the 1890s.Joseph Gurney (Uncle Joe) Cannon of Illinois(1903-1911) is another example. So is NicholasLongworth of Ohio (1925-1930). These threewere Republicans.In our time Sam Rayburn of Texas, a Democrat,is another example, although a notchbelow Clay and Reed. But all these men wereresponsible, which is no small achievement in apolitical institution such as the Congress. Afterall, responsibility is like a hot poker; few wantto grab it. Clay, Reed, Cannon, Longworth,Rayburn did and held on. They generally didwhat was necessary. They anticipated trouble;they fought off obstructionists. They actedsurely and decisively. They did not court popularityamong their colleagues. It was the leastthing they valued. Respect, yes; but popularitywas a great nothingness. In the case of Speakerssuch as Clay and Reed the House prosperedduring their administrations. This meant theCongress as a whole functioned better. Thisalso of course meant the Nation benefited.But crisp, alert leadership crossed over thatfine line into legislative tyranny in the lateyears of Joe Cannon, the "happy autocrat" whoran too tight a ship. His leadership became anabomination. Democrats and Republican insurgentsof Cannon's own political party rebelledon a Wednesday in March in 1910. There ensuedone of the historic brawls in all westernparliamentary history. Four days later Cannonremained as Speaker but the Speakership itselfwas stripped of its supreme powers, which havenever been restored. As a periodical of thattime commented: Cannon had saved his Chairbut lost his shirt.The germ of present-day troubles in theHouse lay within the new machinery of commandthat was substituted for the centralizedpowers of the Speakership. Until the Cannonbrouhaha, a Speaker had, among other powers,a complete and unchecked authority to makecommittee assignments and name chairmen ofthe great legislative and appropriation committeesof the House. Be a Member a Democrat,Republican, Free-Mason, Greenbacker or Populist,he owed his committee assignment and hisimportance on that committee to the Speaker,


THE SCROLL of <strong>Phi</strong> <strong>Delta</strong> <strong>Theta</strong> for JANUARY, 1970 133whatever his own party affiliation. Speakers didnot drastically move members about from committeeto committee. But they moved swiftly topunish members who blocked the Speaker's legislativeprograms or who offended him in otherperformances of legislative duties by members.This all changed with the successful 1910 revolt.When the new Congress convened in 1911,the Democrats and Republicans devised substitutemachinery for making committee assignments.The House Democrats, whose leader wasChamp Clark of Missouri, decided that assignmentswould be made by a "committee on committees."This committee would consist of theDemocratic members of the Ways and MeansCommittee the powerful legislative committeethat drafts tax and tariff bills. This system isstill in effect today, nearly 60 years later. Thesystem has merit. But out of this system grew acustom of seniority which now bedevils thecongressional machinery.The concept of seniority has advantages. Ittends to place a value on experience of a member,both legislative and political. But over theyears it became automatic at the beginning ofeach new Congress, that occurs every two years,for a member to be reappointed to the samecommittee he served on in the previous Congress—unless,of course, he successfully requesteda transfer. And it became automatic toplace this reappointed member to the sameranking on the committee as he held in the previousCongress. If he was first ranking and hisparty was the majority party in the Congress hebecame chairman of his committee. And he continuedas chairman until retirement, defeat ordeath removed him. He was then succeeded bythe second-ranking member of his party on thecommittee and, correspondingly, other memberson the committee moved up a notch.So the custom of seniority hardened into anironclad, self-perpetuating mechanism. Seniority,in sum, meant that if a member lived longenough and was re-elected consecutively oftenenough, he would, just as certain as God madelittle green apples, become chairman of a committee.<strong>No</strong>w the lethal political pitfall for nationalDemocrats in the House lies in just thatcondition of predictability. The member mostlikely to succeed in this circumstance is onefrom a one-party, stable, non-urban congressionaldistrict, which by its definition is politicallynon-competitive and insulated from majorissues affecting more expansionist, changingcongressional districts, usually urban-oriented.This Member is, of course, the Southern Democrat,capable, cagy, shrewd, often superlativelyendowed with parliamentary acumen but stuckto the segregationist flypaper, elitist in outlook,uncaring about desperate problems of race, poverty,pollution, mass transit and all the issuesfacing city folks. This being so, legislation forcivil rights, federal education assistance, healthcare, mass transit, pollution and anti-povertyprograms receive little or no sympathy fromSouthern Democrats, the conservative or sometimesreactionary foxes (chairmen) in charge ofthe liberal chicken-coops, the committees.They are indeed, as Hubert Humphrey hascalled them. Republicans with Southern accents.They have every right to be so, of course.But they should exercise their social viewswithin the confines of a national party basicallysympathetic to their views, that is the RepublicanParty. In fact, one Southern Democrat, AlbertWatson of South Carolina, did just that in1965. <strong>No</strong>minally a Democrat, he supportedBarry Goldwater, the Republican nominee, forPresident in 1964. Long-suffering Democrats,their patience finally exhausted, punished himwhen the new 89th Congress convened in January,1965. They stripped him of what little seniorityhe had.Watson, accordingly, resigned his House seat,disaffiliated as a Democrat, registered as a Republicanand was elected as a Republican to fillthe seat he had just resigned as a Democrat!Watson's choice was an admirable one from thestandpoint of consistency between his beliefsand his party membership. John Bell Williams,similarly punished for supporting Goldwater,resigned from the House and returned to hishome state of Mississippi where he now sits asits Governor.WE'VE GOTPRO&LEMS.


134 THE SCROLL of <strong>Phi</strong> <strong>Delta</strong> <strong>Theta</strong> for JANUARY, 1970"So the customof seniorityhardenedinto an ironclad, self-perpetuatingmechanism."Despite these few departures, seniority rules.This, in turn, enables committee chairmen, securein their seniority, to run their committeesindependent of the general purposes of theHouse and the Senate as a whole. They can,and do, thumb their noses.at a majority of theirown Party and at Presidents. Congress in committeeis Congress at work, Woodrow Wilsonwrote 85 yeajs ago.Today it may be said that when the House(or the Senate) meets as a whole, the reality isthat it is one of those periodic occasions whenthe largely autonomous committees meet togetherto ratify one another's decisions. Thiscondition, compounded by an unwillingness toadopt prompt, efficient procedures and modernmethods such as computers to help the $200-billion a year Federal Government arrive at rationaldecisions, is a recipe for disaster for usall. Members and non-members of the Congress.I can not make this point too strongly.Once a general was brought terribly badnews about his troops in battle. He replied tohis aides that the situation is too hopeless to despair.So he went to work and righted the situation.So with the Congress. There are proposalsto make the House liveable again.My proposal begins with the organizationalmeeting of House Democrats at the commencementof each new Congress—that is, in Januaryof each odd-numbered year.1. The Democratic caucus (meeting) wouldselect a Speaker if the Democrats were the majorityparty or a Minority Leader if the Republicanswere the majority party.2. The designated Speaker (or MinorityLeader) would have the sole power to nominatethe following:(a) All the Democratic members of theCommittee on Ways and Means and its chairman(or ranking minority member).(b) All the Democratic members of theCommittee on Rules and its chairman (or rankingminority member).3. After these nominations are made in caucus,a vote will be taken to confirm each nomineeby majority vote. <strong>No</strong> nomination may be madefrom the floor. In the event a majority rejectsone or more of the Speaker's (Minority Leader's)nominees, this party leader will submit asmany nominations as are necessary to fill thecommittee assignments.4. The Members approved for appointmentto the Ways and Means Committee will act (asis now the rule) as the Democratic Committeeon Committees. At a subsequent caucus, thiscommittee will submit nominations for seats on


THE SCROLL of <strong>Phi</strong> <strong>Delta</strong> <strong>Theta</strong> for JANUARY, 1970 135the other committees of the House—Appropriations,Armed Services, Education and Labor,Interior, etc. Approval of nominees will be bymajority vote. Again, if one or more nominationsare rejected by the caucus, the Committeeon Committees will submit nominations untilall Democratic vacancies are filled.5. The party leader (Speaker or MinorityLeader) will now nominate the chairman (orranking minority member) for each standingcommittee. Once again, if one or more are rejected,he will continue to offer nominationsuntil all chairmanships are filled.In this fashion a persuasive element of accountability,hitherto lacking, will be injectedinto Democratic party affairs. A member, be hea chairman or a rank-and-file member, wouldstill be able to vote his conscience. However, hewould be far less likely to refuse to give a fairshake to legislation carrying out the nationallegislative program of his own party, the DemocraticParty. This is basically what must be insistedon. Representative Wilbur Mills of Arkansas,as chairman of the Ways and MeansCommittee, would be far less likely to bottle upmedicare legislation for years, as he did, if hewas accountable to a caucus of his fellow Democratseach two years who might vote not to voteto select him for another two years as chairmanof this committee. Mendel Rivers of South Carolina,House Armed Services Committee chairman,would no longer be able to let a grosslyunfair selective service system continue unreformedfor years or adopt massive weapons systemswithout full and complete discussion.You surely have read about grandiose proposalsfor long-range studies of congressional operationsby think-tanks or blue-ribbon commissions.But none is needed. We in the House,whether we profit by it or not, know what iswrong. My proposal, declared feasible and practicaleven by its opponents, would alter thisdreadful condition of the House. With modificationsit could be applied as well to the Senate,where there, too, 90 per cent of the timeDemocrats are the majority party.Currently, Congress resembles a crowded airportterminal building where no plane can takeoff because the runways are torn up. My proposalwould correct this. <strong>No</strong> revolution wouldoccur. Competent seniors will continue to exercisetheir abilities. Other seniors, now as out ofdate in their comprehension of our fierce internationaland national problems as dinosaurs,may not be so fortunate, of course.Once the iron rule of seniority is modified,the power structure becomes altered. Then itwould well be possible to launch those neededprograms of modernization, such as introductionof computers and a sensible system of electionfinancing to replace the existing onewherein big money deforms free elections inthis country.I am optimistic about reform—not a drastic,spectacular overnight development but a steadyimprovement. The warm winds of reform aregently rising within the Congress. We in Congressneed your support.•The Author.Rep. Richard W.

Tenth Hoosier ChapterIndiana Kappa InstalledAt Ball State UniversityBy Charles LazzaraChaplain, Indiana KappaPHI <strong>Delta</strong> <strong>Theta</strong> found its place in the Munci,Indiana, sun Saturday and Sunday, <strong>No</strong>v. 1-2, 1969, as Indiana Kappa was installed at BallState University.The installation marked the end of a fiveyear era for Chi Kappa Epsilon local fraternityand the start of a new era for <strong>Phi</strong> <strong>Delta</strong> <strong>Theta</strong>at Ball State. Chi Kappa Epsilon was foundedin 1965 by four men who were dissatisfied withthe other Greek systems on campus. After threeyears of hard work, Chi Kappa Epsilon petitioned<strong>Phi</strong> <strong>Delta</strong> <strong>Theta</strong> for affiliation.Members of Chi Kappa Epsilon becamebrothers in the Bond of <strong>Phi</strong> <strong>Delta</strong> <strong>Theta</strong> Saturdayafternoon, <strong>No</strong>v. 1, at the College AvenueMethodist Church in Muncie. Forty-four undergraduatesand 13 alumni signed the Bond Book.The next afternoon, in the same church,Howard E.

WhatCourseforGreeksInTheNextDecadeBy Dr. Elden T. SmithOhio Wesleyan '32du,^L^


What is the right course for fraternities in the future?Perhaps it is a reversion to what they were in the earlypart of this century and autonomy, says Dr. Elden T. Smith(Ohio Wesleyan '32) in the article beginning on the nextpage. Dr. Smith, after six years as president of his almamater, resigned last year to become the principalstaff officer with the Association of American Colleges.A former General Council member, scholarship commissionerand province president of <strong>Phi</strong> <strong>Delta</strong> <strong>Theta</strong>, he nowserves on the Fraternity's Survey Commission.DURING the past decade radical changeshave occurred in American higher education.It is entirely possible, however, that thesechanges will be dwarfed by those which willtake place in the next ten years.American society in this last third of the 20thcentury is in a fluid state responding to newcurrents in contemporary thought, to pressuresgenerated by an exploding population, to theintrusion of government in the lives of peopleand to a rapidly expanding "youth culture." Asalways, higher education reflects the attitudesand postures of the society which supports itand which it serves.Consequently, in the past ten years, new academicpatterns have developed, major effortshave been mounted to attract and recruit collegestudents from the under-privileged and minoritygroup segments of our society and, ofgreatest interest to the fraternity world, new relationshipsbetween students and the institutionsthey attend have emerged.Until recently colleges and universities havefelt a genuine responsibility, based upon theconcept of in loco parentis, for the life of thestudent outside the classroom. Extensive socialprograms, the building of college unions, thedevelopment of expensive programs of intramuraland intercollegiate athletics, the constructionand staffing of dormitory systems and therecognition, support and governance of fraternitiesand sororities were all evidence of concernfor student welfare.With the emergence of student power andthe rejection by students of institutional controland supervision, college administrators are revisingtheir entire educational philosophy. It isquite possible that in the next several years studentswill be permitted to live where and asthey wish, to do what they want to do, and willbe held responsible only for the achievement oftheir academic goals. Interestingly enough, thiswould represent a reversion to the policies andpractices of educational institutions in the earlypart of this century when the concept of studentpersonnel services had not yet been developed.If this present trend does continue, fraternitiescould well be cut loose from institutionalsupport and control and would no longer beconsidered as a part of the students' educationalexperience to be molded and influenced by theinstitution. In fact, such a separation has alreadybeen effected at some universities in theSouthwest and on the West Coast.It has long been my thesis that fraternitieshave survived only because theyhave been flexible and could adjust tovarying needs and conditions of the studentsthey serve. I believe they wiU surviveonly so long as they continue to bevaluable and constructive influences inthe lives of students. While there arecertain social fringe benefits of fraternitymembership which persist into the livesof adults, the primary purpose remainsthat of service to undergraduates.We are now faced with the question ofwhether the fraternity system can make the adjustmentto the new student life-style of theSeventies. Does the fraternity have a job to dowhich can be done effectively if it no longer enjoysthe sheltering and protective arms of theinstitution? I am inclined to believe that it doesbut I recognize that it will take a significant restructuringof the organizations at both thelocal and national levels.


140 THE SCROLL of <strong>Phi</strong> <strong>Delta</strong> <strong>Theta</strong> for JANUARY, 1970For example, the fraternity chapter of 1975may once again be.a group of no more than 30men. The monster houses built in the past 20years may have to be sold and converted toother uses. Fraternity men may well become aneven smaller minority of the total college population.The evaluation of such organizationsmay once again be made on the basis of thequality of the brotherhood rather than on thesize and elegance of the house, the number ofathletes^ and student leaders or the amount ofmoney spent for parties. I, for one, feel thatsuch a development might be healthy and constructive.If the relationship of the college fraternity tothe institution enrolling its members doeschange, what will the effect be on membershipselection practices? In theory, since the collegewould no longer be extending recognition tothe chapter, it could not prescribe any standardsfor admission to membership. The chapterwould enjoy a status of complete autonomyexcept possibly in its relationship to a nationalor international organization. It could, if itwished, continue to select its members by requiringa unanimous ballot or on any otherbasis it chooses.I have long supported the provisionof the Code of <strong>Phi</strong> <strong>Delta</strong> <strong>Theta</strong> whichrequires the unanimous approval of allchapter members before a prospectivemember is pledged because I believe afraternity represents a special kind ofrelationship. It is, or should be, morethan a casual acquaintanceship; it is, intruth, conceived as a kind of brotherhoodin which one enjoys close association andspecial bonds of fellowship. For thisreason it should not be entered intocarelessly or without due consideration.Furthermore, one should not have such associationforced upon him by a majority vote of hisfellows. The one negative vote which a membercan cast under a unanimous ballot system representshis freedom to choose his associates, hisindependence and his individuality. To removethis right and privilege destroys the fundamentalconcept of fraternity.Unfortunately, the unanimous ballot hasbeen greatly misused. It is under attack becauseit has been the device by which some fraternitieshave continued to discriminate against possiblemembers because of their race or religion.I have long supported the effort, which wasfinally crowned with success at the 1968 GeneralConvention of <strong>Phi</strong> <strong>Delta</strong> <strong>Theta</strong>, to remove fromthe Constitution all membership barriers based«


t«. chapter on thelocalcampus must andwill becomean autonomous socialgroup .>>upon race or religion. I worked for the removalof the "clause" because I believed that it representedan unjust and archaic policy unworthyof the name of brotherhood.Moreover, I opposed it because I felt that itinhibited the right of the individual chapter tochoose as brothers those men with whom theywished to enjoy a special relationship under theBond of <strong>Phi</strong> <strong>Delta</strong> <strong>Theta</strong>.I do not see the defense of the unanimousballot and the attack upon racial and religiousdiscrimination as inconsistent. I think they areboth manifestations of the same basic humanright—the right to choose one's social companionswithout dictations or interference by a collegeor university or by a general fraternity organizationof alumni. The rights and freedomsof Americans are gradually being eroded andprivacy is almost a thing of the past. I hopethat freedom of association is one right whichcan be defended and preserved.It is true, however, that as long as the fraternitychapter is an integral part of the institutionit will have to abide by institutional policy.It will be subject to regulations made bystudents, faculties, administrators and trustees,all of whom must be responsive to the pressuresof government and the society at large. It isquite probable that those regulations will forbidthe practice of choosing members by unanimousballot because of the use of that device todiscriminate against those of minority races andreligions.It is for this reason that I have cometo the conclusion with great reluctancethat the fraternity chapter on the localcampus must and will become an autonomoussocial group, setting its ownpolicies or accepting those of a largerorganization with which it may be aiHliated.I believe that the time is ripe for this changeto be effected. In the new freedom of studentson the college campus such a transition couldbe made without major disruption. Many collegeadministrators would welcome the releasefrom the responsibility of guiding and directingfraternities and from accepting the blame fortheir errors and excesses.New freedom for the fraternities, as well asfor individual students, means greatly increasedresponsibility. The chapters will have to relearnhow to govern themselves, to collect their bills,to manage their budgets, to enforce disciplineon their members and to survive in a socialorder that will be increasingly critical of them.Yet, herein may lie the way to salvation andsurvival. Once again, the system may prove itselfsufficiently flexible to respond to the needsand desires of undergraduates and it may demonstratethat it has a significant role to play inthe total panorama of American higher education.If the fraternity system connot adapt, thenit is indeed doomed to slow extinction and I,as one who benefitted greatly from it, wouldview its demise with sadness and regret. •"I believe that thetime is ripefor this change. ... Inthe newfreedom of students. . . such atransition could bemade withoutmajordisruption."[141]

Sal Hernandez photo courtesy United AirlinesBill Mentzer (Nebraska '29) has hada strong voicein thedevelopment of morethan 50 typesof aircraft, ranging fromearly propeller planesto the supersonics.United Airlines' Man from M.LT.THE Maintenance and Engineeritig Base ofUnited Air Lines gleams in the sun south ofSan Francisco, a metallic temple of latter-daytechnology. To visitors with long memories, itseems incredible that the wide-spread hangarsand massive overhaul docks could have evolvedfrom the cinder-floored tin sheds of the 1920'sin which "grease monkeys" tuned up Libertyengines.Starting pay was $2.50 a day, $75 a month,$900 a year. The most experienced ones madetwice that much but hardly a penny more.They called themselves "ship builders" andthere was truth in the title. They could build[144]an airplane piece by piece, from propeller totail skid, and they boasted they "could make abarn door fly."William C. (Bill) Mentzer (Nebraska '29) wasunfamiliar with the grease monkey mystiquewhen he took a job as a mechanic's helper atthe Cheyenne, Wyo., shops of Boeing AirTransport in the summer of 1929. He was a recentgraduate of the Journalism School at theUniversity of Nebraska and he fully expected tobecome a newspaperman. The engine-and-propellerroar was temporary, he told himself, andsoon would be replaced by clacking typewritersand shouts of "copy."


THE SCROLL ol <strong>Phi</strong> <strong>Delta</strong> <strong>Theta</strong> for JANUARY, 1970 145But his life was reshaped that summer. Perhapshe listened over-long to hangar raconteurstelling about the barnstormers, the high fliers,the Jack Knights and "Slim" Lindberghs. Inany case, when fall came he left the shops tostudy at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology-,He was now a man with a plan. When hegraduated from M.I.T. in 1931 he went to workfor the Boeing Airplane Company at Seattle.At that time Boeing Airplane Company, alongwith United Air Lines and several other organizations,was part of an aeronautical holdingcompany—United Aircraft and Transport.In 1934 the holding company was dismemberedand Mentzer decided to take his chanceswith the transport division—United Air Lines.In 1935 United's young president, W. A. Patterson,assigned Mentzer to draw up specificationsfor a "super airliner" that would fly almosttwice as fast and carry twice as many passengersas any existent transport plane. The aircraftwas successfully designed but productionwas delayed by World War II. When the planefinally entered airline service in 1<strong>94</strong>6 as theDouglas DC-4, it was already nearly obsolete becauseof wartime progress in aeronautical technology.Mentzer, meanwhile, had been promoted tochief engineer for United. In that capacity heattuned himself to each advance in what aeronauticalengineers refer to as "the state of theart." In time he was to become associated withthe development of more than 50 types of aircraft.His rise through United's executive ranks waspredictable but unhurried. In 1<strong>94</strong>7 he was electedregional vice president-operations; in 1958vice president-engineering; in 1962 senior vicepresident-engineering and maintenance, withresponsibility for San Francisco base.Mentzer divides the work of United's engineeringand maintenance department into fourparts. First, there's the necessity to have theright types of aircraft in the company's fleet.Any error on this score would have serious economicconsequences."We study the forecast of the company's futureneeds," he says, and then evaluate aircraftavailable on the market or under considerationfor production. If the proposed performancecharacteristics do not match our needs, we encouragemanufacturers to develop an entirelynew plane. That's how the Boeing 727 cameinto being.Second and third are aircraft care and aircraftservicing."And fourth, aircraft improvement. We neverlet well enough alone. We continually look forways to make aircraft better. It is not unusualfor us to have more than 100 modification projectsin progress at one time."Engineering and maintenance command afifth of United's revenue dollars and a third ofthe company's work force—an indication of thespecial weight these activities receive. Such emphasisresults in many innovations which insome industries would not be disclosed to competitors.A different set of ethics, however, ispracticed in airline engineering and maintenance."We have no secrets about matters related tosafety and reliability." Mentzer says. "Sales andmarketing departments of the various carriersjealously guard their competitive advantages,but in the technical end of the business we fostercooperation and exchange information."Representatives of virtually all the world'sairlines visit United's base—not to socialize, butto pick our brains. And we let them. It's a twowaystreet and we learn much from them.""Our overall objective is two-fold—to providethe best and to do this at the most favorablecost" he says. The two may seem opposed butactually they are remarkably compatible. Troublesarising from unreliability can be verycostly. On the other hand, sound advances inreliability can be vastly rewarding.As for the second path—better methods—Mentzer proudly points out that United has ledthe industry in a definite swing away from thetraditional and confining "time control" conceptof maintenance."Optimum reliability isn't necessarily achievedby adhering to fixed overhaul time practices," hesays. "Many operational problems have no relationshipto the amount of use a componenthas received."We have devised reliability-oriented programsto provide the kind of maintenance thatextracts the best service from components. Insome cases this simply means leaving themalone until indications of deteriorating performanceare detected. In others it means providingpartial or complete overhauls and retirementof certain parts at specific intervals. Wefit the treatment to the need."Forty years have passed since Bill Mentzerwalked into the shops at Cheyenne. He has noregrets about having chosen aeronautical engineeringover journalism. It was the first ofmany right decisions which have marked his career.•This story is excerpted from portions of an articlein United Airlines' Mainliner Magazine and is usedhere with UA's permission.

Conveniently located,it is only minutes from important governmentbuildings and national landmarks.<strong>No</strong> place in this country has more to offer theseeker of his country's heritage than Washington,D.C. Until recently, Washington had thedistinction of being the only national capitalcity in the world that was planned before it wasbuilt. Other cities have come into being, grownand prospered because of geography, the shapeof a coast line, the bend of a wagon trail, thepresence of mineral wealth, or the location of apass through the mountains, but Washington,D.C, was created by an act of Congress, and itsstreets and parks were laid out by an engmeerwhen the city was still nothing more thanwoodland and marsh.The visitor finds so much to do and see inWashington that he sometimes doesn't evenknow where to start. This dilemma will be keptin mind when the program for the 1970 Conventionis put into its final form. Time wiU beallotted to visit the many historical points of interestand, of course, persons attending theConvention are encouraged to either arriveearly, remain late, or both, at the low conventionrates so that additional time may be spentvacationing and sightseeing.Washington is served by most major airlinesat its two airports. Most visitors will probablyprefer to arrive at Washington's National Airportlocated on the Virginia side of the Potomac,although Dulles International Airportmight be more convenient for those persons arrivingin larger jet aircraft. Six railroads andtwo bus companies serve the Nation's Capital.Important information concerning the 1970Convention will appear in the next two issuesof THE SCROLL.

1969FOOTBALLAll-<strong>Phi</strong>Little All-<strong>Phi</strong>[148]


Usual Group Of All-AmericasSophs, Juniors Spark '69 All-<strong>Phi</strong> SquadBy Dr. John Davis, Jr. (Washburn '38), All-<strong>Phi</strong> Board SecretaryandJack McDonald (<strong>No</strong>rth Dakota '62), <strong>Scroll</strong> EditorIN A seeming age of dissent and rebellion. <strong>Phi</strong><strong>Delta</strong> <strong>Theta</strong>'s All-<strong>Phi</strong> Football Board fell all overeach other in agreement, picking 19 of the 22-man1969 All-<strong>Phi</strong> Football Team unanimously.Leading a glittering array of young <strong>Phi</strong> backs isthe Ohio Buckeyes' red-haired wonder, quarterbackRex Kem—termed the finest quarterback in OhioState history by coach Woody Hayes. King Rex hasalready grabbed the Buckeye career yardage markand he still has a year to play.The plucky Kern was third in this season's HeismanTrophy balloting, was a 2d Team All-Big 10choice and was a 2d team NEA All-America. Hisbest afternoon was against Michigan State (but alas,not against Michigan) where he picked up 292 yds.In a bit of fancy footwork that would dazzle anAll-Pro linebacker, the All-<strong>Phi</strong> Board shifted supersophquarterback John Reaves to a running back sothat the All-<strong>Phi</strong> backfield could include both himand Kern.All Reaves did, in his first season for Florida, waspick up 2,530 yds. and toss ^2 TD passes. His season'soutput tops any back in 4> A 0 history. Hetoppled SEC records all over the place and wastwice named UPI Back of the Week and once APBack of the Week. Pe^k games included five TDpasses against both Houston and Vanderbilt.Joining him in the backfield is another sophomorefrom Florida's fountain of youth. TommyDurrance, who scored 92 points and ranked in thetop five among NCAA scorers all season.Completing the first unit is Arkansas' Bill Burnptt,the Southwest Conference's top scorer andrusher. He scored three times for the top rankedRazorbacks against SMU, Baylor and Texas Tech.And look out next year, since Kern and Burnettare only juniors and the frisky Floridians, Reavesand Durrance, are mere sophomores.At the ends are two more underclassmen, juniorsPat Morrison of Arkansas and Guy Ingles, Nebraska's158 lb. "Guy the Fly." The Fly set a Comhuskerrecord against Oklahoma state with five receptionsfor 163 yds., including two of 47 yds. each.He had 26 receptions for 408 yds. on the season,played safety on defense and was ranked among theBig 8 punt returners. He was also a Big 8 Linemanof the Week.The tackles are three-year UCLA regular GordonBosserman, a 2d team All-<strong>Phi</strong> pick the past twoyears, and All-Big 10 Paul DeNuccio, Purdue.There's 680 lbs. of rugged <strong>Phi</strong> football strengthin the interior line with guards Don DeSalle, 220lb. Indiana senior All-Big 10 pick, and Penn Statestar Charlie Zapiec, a 225 lb. junior, joining 235 lb.center Warren Koegle, another of the unbeaten NittanyLion crew that won the Lambert Trophy forthe 3d consecutive year.If anyone gets too offensive with the All-<strong>Phi</strong>s,they can counter with one of the Fraternity's finestdefensive units in years. At the ends are a pair ofseniors, UCLA's Vince Bischof and jerry Simonson,a three year starter for Utah.At the tackle spots are a pair of All-<strong>Phi</strong> repeaters,and what a pair to draw to: 2d team DPI All-AmericaSteve Smear, a Penn State tri-captain (theydidn't dare not elect him), and Oregon's State'sfriendly giant, 270 lb. Bill Nelson, who shifted fromlinebacker to the line this season with hardly aripple of his biceps.Backing up the line are a trio of juniors: OhioState's Doug Adams, Mississippi's Fred Bister andPenn State's Jack Ham.

Kicker's kicker: Sam Baker (Oregon State '52), oneof pro football's all-time kickers.With Eagles'Old Sam' KeepsKicking For PaydirtBy Dr. John Davis, Jr.Washburn '38SAM BAKER (Oregon State '52), the one-timeOregon State fullback, has completed his15th season of professional football this yearand his 7th with the <strong>Phi</strong>ladelphia Eagles. TheOregon State <strong>Phi</strong> is the most prolific pro punterand the second highest scorer in National FootballLeague history.If age is creeping up on Sam he doesn't showit. He scored 85 points for the Eagles last yearmaking a total of 983 points in 15 seasons as apro. This season's play tied him with MelHeim, the Washington State and New YorkGiant center who put in 15 years in the progame, and it puts him only one year short ofquarterback Sammy Baugh's 16 years and twounder the 17 of the great Cleveland field goalkicker Lou Groza.Sam doesn't tote the ball as he used to forOregon State . . . he's too valuable as a kicker.That means not only on field goals but pointsafter TD and all the punting. His field goal recordis 51 yards. Sam makes his home in <strong>Phi</strong>ladelphiaand is studying law at Temple Univer^sity.Sam made his final appearance as a collegianin 1950 opposing Oregon and he scored twice asOSU nipped the Webfoots 22-19. Ten years laterhe returned to the same stadium as a pro withthe Washington Redskins and by that time hiswaistline had expanded and he was no longerable to cover the ground in his old style so heconcentrated entirely on field goal kicking.Time, of course, has taken something fromSam, but at 39 he is still a scoring threat.Baker's 808 yards rushing in the 1950 OregonState season has only been surpassed by twoBeavers and that was in the last three years. His67 points was a Beaver record until brokenthree years ago.In his long pro career with the WashingtonRedskins, Cleveland Browns, Dallas Cowboysand the <strong>Phi</strong>ladelphia Eagles since 1954, but notincluding this past season, he has punted 703times in the NFL for a 41.6 average. Sam hasmade good on 397 of 413 extra point attemptsand he has split the uprights 163 of 286 field goalattempts. He scored two touchdowns rushing inhis early years with the Washington Redskins.He caught two passes for 21 yards in 1959 andhe was used as kick return specialist from 1956through 1961. He completed his first pass in 1968,'a 58 yard TD toss against Dallas on a faked punt., <strong>No</strong>t a bad record for a guy who was bornLoris Hoskins Baker in San Francisco 39 yearsago.•[160]


BUSY PHISiOne of the leader's in the country's fightto meet the urban problems of this century isBoston's dynamic mayor, Kevin H. White(Williams '52).The 45th mayor of Boston was elected in <strong>No</strong>vember,1967, and has quickly gained a nationalreputation as one of the leaders in creative,imaginative city government. The 41-year-oldlawyer is descended from a politicallyprominent family that has long been activein Boston government. His father, father-in-lawand grandfather all served as presidentsof the Boston City Council.In 1960 he became the youngest man in thestate's history to be elected Secretary of theCommonwealth. He was re-elected for threemore two-year terms before turning to Boston.His main theme has been the decentralizationof city government, and this has beenachieved through the creation of 12 "LittleCity Halls" throughout the city.

Letters To The EditorPOT ARTICLE BESTYour article "Why <strong>No</strong>t Pot <strong>No</strong>w?"in the September issue is the best answerto these marijuana users I haveever heard or read.And I have been aware of therapid and dangerous growth of thisevil for many years. For over 25 yearsI was the presiding justice of theDomestic Relations Court of NewYork City which included five courtsfor the treatment of youth delinquencyand neglect. I helped establisha treatment clinic for youngusers and addicts of cocaine onBlackwell's Island, N.Y. I am still onthe advisory committee of the LowerEastside Service Center where narcoticaddicts are treated.Your article goes right to the rootof the marijuana evils: "Harm lies . .. in the effect on the life pattern ofthe user" and "Chronic use producesa deterioration of the will to workand the capacity to take responsibility."I add that the boy who takes thisdrug will be and is an easy victim ofthe friend who exploits LSD and cocaine.I know that this is true. Ihave said: "The hallucinations andlassitude and ecstatic dreams producedby the use of drugs put tosleep, reduce to relative unimportanceand kill all sense of duty,every, every feeling of responsibility,every instinctive or former urge towork, to build, to achieve.John W. HillColumbia 'IINOT PLEASEDI want you to know that I am notpleased with your treatment ot thestudent expulsion problem as discussedin the May issue. In the articleby Hans B. Borstad, I believethat a preface or introduction to putthe problem in perspective shouldhave been used. The article seems toimply that colleges might have actedimproperly. As a matter of fact, collegesgenerally have been extremelylax in their treatment of student anarchists.With respect to the In ReGault decision, it seems that the authoris pleading the case for studentdue process and he appears to be givingadvice to students who may besuspended for rioting, demonstrating,etc.With respect to the next article,"Are We Listening?", this seems tobe generally propaganda against servingin the war in Vietnam. This arti-The SCROLL encourages itsreaders to contribute theirthoughts and ideas concerningsubjects in the magazine or anysubject they think ought to beaired in THE SCROLL via "Lettersto the Editor." We only askthat the letters be kept to a 200-word maximum.cle seems to feel that it we oldstershad listened more to the youngsters,there would not be the problems thatare rampant today. As a matter otfact, if we had educated the youngstersproperly as to the philosophyon which our country is founded andunder which it flourished, the youthof today would have a firm foundationand be well grounded in theirbeliefs and able to withstand thepropaganda which is thrown at themby subversives in our midst. I notethat the article which is favorable tolaw and order was third in line andwas in small print. The same is generallytrue on the last article by Rev.Hesburgh.Finally, the cover of the magazinewas, in my opinion, out of place.Again, the sign constituted a statementwhich amounts to propagandaagainst patriotism and against honorableservice in the Army for one'scountry. For years I have been disappointedwith the SCROLL'S lack of positionwith respect to America's politicalphilosophy and its traditions offree enterprise and capitalism. At atime when the world is divided intotwo camps—one Communist and theother capitalist—I would think itwould be in order for THE SCROLL totake note ot this fact and to attemptsome editorial comment on behalf ofAmerica's traditions.Joseph P. KeslerVCLA '28Ed. <strong>No</strong>te: The size of type and theorder of the articles in "THE SCROLLare decided solely by factors ofmakeup and space, and in no way indicatea fneference or importance ofthe articles.NEW RELEVANCYThe May issue of THE SCROLL hasbeen in a stack of literature to readby my bedside tor some months andI just got down to it and was agreeablysurprised to see a new relevancy[170]in the magazine. The fact is thatquite some years ago I became ratheralienated from fraternities in generalbecause of their lack ot a social conscience.My younger son went toMiami and by the time he got theremy attitudes had so conditioned himthat he showed no interest in fraternitiesand I think they would havebeen good for him.On one occasion later I recommendeda West Lafayette, Ind., chapto my own chapter, Illinois Beta, becauseI thought that, living in Chicago,this young man would be betteroff in a primary group ratherthan in the city at large or in thedormitories. However, I had a retirementministry a couple of blocksfrom the <strong>Phi</strong> Delt house at Purdueand during my four years there neverset foot in the house, so you can seehow thoroughly separated I felt fromfraternities in general. My stereotypefor them was of a group ot wastersand playboys serving time so thatIhey might earn more money and itis only as I look at the comparativescholarship records that I realizethere are some chapters quite seriousabout scholarship or they would nothave their high position.In any event, your concert? withthe student explosions and the draftmakes me think that you really docare about the younger generation interms other than that of campusachievement and material success ongraduation. Congratulations on thecopy and I am going to overhaul myprejudices with regard to fraternitiesit I see further trends of this sort.Years ago I knew Dean Priest personallyand for a short time workedon the National Committee on Fraternitiesand Education in the hopethat we might influence the fraternitiesto open their doors wider on thebasis ot character and scholarshiprather than that of race, financialstanding or religion.When Illinois Beta, my own chapter,wanted to initiate a Jew and aNegro, there was only one othermember of the alumni of that chapterwho had any understanding ofthe feeling of some of those students.It was a satisfaction to me that thechap I did recommend to IllinoisBeta became president of his freshmandelegation and later president ofthe chapter because he had thebreadth of ideals that, if generallyfound among fraternity men, wouldbring them up to the times and give


THE SCROLL of <strong>Phi</strong> <strong>Delta</strong> <strong>Theta</strong> for JANUARY, 1970 171the fraternity system a future.Edwin H. WilsonChicago '26HANDWRITING ON WALLAfter reading page 29 of the September,1969, SCROLL about membershipselection, I have a question ortwo.Are there any Negroes in any <strong>Phi</strong>chapters? If not, why not? Are. thereany members of the Jewish faith orAmerican Indians who are <strong>Phi</strong>s?I for one think the handwriting ison the wall and the Fraternityshould not exclude a person becauseof faith or race. I realize that oneshould be able to choose his friends,but I feel that it's rather ironic thatno Negroes are pledged to <strong>Phi</strong> <strong>Delta</strong><strong>Theta</strong>. I don't say pledge a man becausehe is a Negro, but you can'ttell me that there aren't some outstandingyoung Negro college menthat <strong>Phi</strong> <strong>Delta</strong> <strong>Theta</strong> should activelyseek out. I realize that the entirematter is rather complex, but I feelthat if one or two or three out of50-70 members of a chapter can stopa man from being pledged because ofskin pigmentation, something shouldbe done about the one or two orthree. After all, I'd say that over 90%is definitely a "significant majority."What I've tried to say is that I feelthat a "small minority" ot blackballsshouldn't stop a chapter from pledginga student.Richard A.

Such a letter will explain the Convention procedurerequired to change the current membership votingrequirements and it will discuss the alternatives whichwould be to either withdraw from the campus or continueto operate in the geographical area without collegerecognition.22. Upon motion duly made and seconded, the Councilvoted unanimously to approve the following policy statement:Since its birth on Dec. 26, 1848, <strong>Phi</strong> <strong>Delta</strong> <strong>Theta</strong>has continually endeavored to cooperate with administrative,faculty, and student groups on thecampuses where it has been located. This relationshiphas, in most cases, been a close and warm onewith mutual respect and joint effort for campusgoals.Examples of this joint effort are found wherecampus and fraternity policy have stressed theimportance of scholarship to the student: penaltiesand restrictions on individual members and theentire chapter have been jointly enforced if statedscholastic attaiiunents were not met. Other examplesare found in situations where disciplinarymeasures had to be taken—always in joint concertwith both parties; and in <strong>Phi</strong> <strong>Delta</strong> <strong>Theta</strong> regulationswhich prohibit use of drugs in a chapterhouse, which restrict use of alcoholic beveragesin agreement with campus rulings, and which urgefull cooperation with campus activities and events.Robert J. MiUerA^ew Mexico '50Executive SecretaryWith A 0 GHd since 1951Unfortunately, there are times when pressureexerted by student, faculty, or administrativegroups seeks to change the basic operation of anindividual chapter of <strong>Phi</strong> <strong>Delta</strong> <strong>Theta</strong>. There aretimes when efforts are made to abrogate the basicrights of association for the members of an individualchapter on a specific campus.It is for these rare instances that the followingpolicy is outlined.1. When the continued association of membersin a chapter of <strong>Phi</strong> <strong>Delta</strong> <strong>Theta</strong> is threatened by aruling on recognition of student organizations andactivities, the first step will be the preparation ofa report by the General Fraternity to review boththe institution and the Fraternity point of view.This summary will be prepared with the assistanceof legal counsel retained by the General Fraternity.The report will inform active members of the chapter,chapter alumni and others of all pertinentfacts in a given situation. Hopefully, this informationwin encourage active members, alumni andothers to take appropriate action based upon thefacts of the individual situation.2. Legal counsel retained by the General Fraternitywill be available to consult with active members,the house corporation officers and alumniofficers about a desirable course of action in anyparticular circumstance, and will consult with theGeneral Council about appropriate action to betaken by the General Fraternity.3. If discussions between active chapter membersand alumni with officers of a college or universityindicate that a local chapter cannot meet the requirementsof the institution for recognition as astudent organization of that institution, then theactive chapter may, with the support and encouragementof the General CouncU, terminate aUaffiliation with the institution and continue tofunction as an independent chapter of <strong>Phi</strong> <strong>Delta</strong><strong>Theta</strong>.4. As a independent chapter, the local organizationwill be expected to continue to meet all standardsof the General Fraternity including membership,financial affairs and social conduct.5. Any legal action to protect the rights of associationand to prevent disciplinary action againstany student because of such association can beundertaken only in the name of the local chapter,in the name of an individual student or in the


THE SCROLL of <strong>Phi</strong> <strong>Delta</strong> <strong>Theta</strong> for JANUARY, 1970 197name of several individual students.6. Any action by the General Fraternity in supportot a local chapter will he taken only if suchaction is desired by the members of the local chapterand by alumni of the chapter.23. After hearing reports on improvements made internallyby the Louisiana Gamma chapter (University ofSouthwestern Louisiana), the Council voted to removethe probation which was placed on the chapter inMarch, 1969.24. Because of the very favorable reaction to the article"Why <strong>No</strong>t Pot <strong>No</strong>w?" which appeared in the SeptemberSaiOLL, the General Council directed the secretariat toprepare reprints ot the article which will be distributedwith a covering letter by President Young to the studentpersoiuiel offices on all campuses where <strong>Phi</strong> <strong>Delta</strong> <strong>Theta</strong>chapters are located.At this juncture, the General Council constituted itselfthe Board of Trustees to transact, such legal business asappeared on the agenda.25.

It was agreed by the Council members that theSurvey Commission, with the assistance of General Headquartersstaff, should prepare a critique of our past expansionpolicy to determine whether we have, in eachcase, installed chapters on campuses where a good fraternityatmosphere exists and under favorable conditions involvingproper preparation of the local organization. Itwas felt that such a study would be beneficial in guidingthe plans of the Fraternity for future expansion.34. The General Council asked the executive secretaryto contact the chief administrative officers of severalother fraternities requesting information about their respectiveFounders Day activities. It was felt that a similarinquiry might be made of the alumni directors ofseveral colleges and universities. The purpose of these inquirieswould be to provide background information forthe improvement and further development of <strong>Phi</strong> <strong>Delta</strong><strong>Theta</strong> Founders Day activities.35. The Council members spent considerable time reviewingthe applications which had been submitted by anumber of <strong>Phi</strong>s tor the position of director of alumnirelations. <strong>No</strong> attempt was made to arrive at a final decisionin view ot the tact that applications were still beingreceived as a result of the advertisement which appearedin the September SCROLLA major portion of Sunday's meeting was devoted to adiscussion ot non-agenda items which contributed greatlyto the understanding of each member present, of the fraternitysystem in general and <strong>Phi</strong> <strong>Delta</strong> <strong>Theta</strong> in particular.Time was also set aside at the Sunday meeting tovisit with representatives of the chapters located in NewEngland, New York State, and the Provinces of Quebecand <strong>No</strong>va Scotia, who had been invited to meet with theGeneral Council.All business on the agenda having been completed, themeeting was adjourned sine die at 6 P.M.

A 0 Educational Foundation Minutes<strong>Phi</strong> <strong>Delta</strong> <strong>Theta</strong> Educational FoundationMinutes of Meeting of Board of TrusteesChicago Athletic Club<strong>No</strong>v. 30, 1968Pursuant to notice, a meeting of the Board of Trusteesof <strong>Phi</strong> <strong>Delta</strong> <strong>Theta</strong> Educational Foundation was held atthe Chicago Athletic Club in Chicago, 111., on Saturday,<strong>No</strong>v. 30, 1968, at 10 A.M.The Trustees in attendance were Samuel N. Pickard,WiUiam Connel, Harbaugh MiUer, Howard M. Packardand CUfford C. Sommer. Harold A. Minnich, treasurer,was also present.Although the term of brother Packard does not beginofficially until Jan. 1, 1969, he was invited to attend thismeeting.The meeting was called to order by President Pickard,who designated brother Minnich as acting secretary.A review of the portfolio indicated that the currentmarket value of principal assets aggregated $153,<strong>94</strong>4 as ofOct. 31, 1968. Net income for the current fiscal year isestimated at approximately $4,500.It was pointed out that gifts to the Foundation duringthe fiscal year ending June 30, 1968, included gifts to theGeneral Fund of $10,005.99, and that the proceeds receivedto date from the Markel Estate aggregate$98,314.86, making total contributions to the Fund in thesum of $108,320.85.It was reported for the record that John M. Stachlerwas the <strong>Phi</strong>keia at Ohio University who received thehighest grades during the past school year, and thereforewas the winner ot the Horn Scholarship Award in thesum of $101.25.A discussion was led by brother Sommer on ways andmeans of increasing contributions to the General Fund.A lengthy discussion ensued on this subject, and the followingmatters were unanimously agreed upon in principal:A) It is felt that there should be a part-time employeeof the Foundation, with some secretarial help, to start anorganization for solicitations. It also was the general feelingthat such groundwork could not possibly be delegatedto a staff member at General Headquarters whohad other primary duties, although it was hoped thatsubstantial assistance might be obtained from variousstaff members.B) It was felt that the starting point would be a list of25 to 50 persons who could supply names of good prospectsknown to them or living in their locality. Oncesuch a prospect list was assembled, he suggested that asimilar group of 25 to 50 volunteers be enlisted to acceptan assignment of approximately five prospects in their locality,on whom they would undertake to make personalcontact and solicitation during the ensuing year for contributionsto the Fund. It is contemplated that with a listof perhaps 500 prospective names, such a campaign couldcontinue for at least two or three years. Sources of sucha list might include:1. The list submitted by Robert Miller.2. Prominent <strong>Phi</strong>s by review of the past 5 years issuesof SCROLLS.3. List of <strong>Phi</strong>s in Who's Who.4. Active members of Alumni Clubs.C) It was suggested that personal solicitations mightbe requested on a pledge, payable over a period of fiveyears, so that the solicitor would not need to keep followingup on a person each year. Instead, reminders couldbe sent out annually concerning the outstanding pledge.[198]D) The part-time employee selected to set up the soli-,citation program would then establish a regular followupon progress reports and reminders, and also continueto expand the solicitation program.Brothers Minnich and Connell agreed to meet at Oxfordafter Jan. 15, 1969, in an attempt to secure the firstlist of persons who might supply names of prospects, andperhaps to accumulate a number of names of prospectsin addition to those already submitted by brother Millerfrom Headquarters.Brother Connell agreed to undertake supervision of preparing:1. Articles for THE SCROLL; and2. Brochures for an advertising piece to send to a specialmailing list. In this regard, he plans to contact DaveRoss, alumni commissioner, for aid in preparing the literature.It was hoped that the foregoing preliminary plansmight be worked out before the next meeting of theBoard in the summer of 1969, and that the Board mightfind a person, by that time, to assume leadership ot thecampaign.After some discussion, it was felt that part of the incomefrom the Foundation would be needed for advertisingand soliciting expenses during the coming year.Upon consideration, it was voted that three scholarships,for $500 each, would be awarded for the school year beginningin the fall of 1969. Headquarters is to be advisedof this tact so that the increased number of scholarshipscould be published when the literature is mailedfrom Headquarters after the first ot the year.There was a discussion concerning the transfer of thePriest Scholarship Fund from General Council to thisFoundation. Harbaugh MiUer has reviewed all ot thedocuments available, and feels confident that it can bedone legally. However, he requested that we obtain anopinion from Ohio counsel on the legality of such actionbefore taking any further steps. Dave Prugh has agreedto write such an opinion as soon as the documents andrecords are sent to him.There then followed the election of officers for the periodbeginning January 1, 1969. Upon motion duly secondedand unanimously adopted, the following officerswere elected: WiUiam Connell, president; CUfford C.Sommer, vice president; David Prugh, secretary; and HaroldA. Minnich, treasurer.There being no further business, the meeting was dulyadjourned at 1:45 P.M.Harold A. MinnichActing SecretaryHorn Scholarship Awarded Craig SmithCraig H. Smith, '72, has won the Robert J. HornScholarship award at Ohio University.The award was established several years ago by,not so surprisingly, Robert J. Horn (Ohio '25), withthe request that it go to the <strong>Phi</strong>keia at Ohio whoattained the highest scholarship average in thechapter for the previous school year. Smith qualifiedunder those criteria to win the award forgrades during the 1968-69 school year.•

A Decade OfAtWhatNextHoldsIn[202]


THE SCROLL of <strong>Phi</strong> <strong>Delta</strong> <strong>Theta</strong> for MARCH, 1970 203The 1960s was one of the most expansionist decadesin <strong>Phi</strong> <strong>Delta</strong> <strong>Theta</strong>'s history, with the Fraternity installing27 chapters during the ten-year period. What followsis a comprehensive look at this expansion, somepossible reasons for this sudden burst of growth, and agetieral look at what the past decade meant to <strong>Phi</strong> <strong>Delta</strong><strong>Theta</strong> and what the upcoming ten years, the 1970s, mayhold in store for the Fraternity.EXPANSION, change and challenge were <strong>Phi</strong><strong>Delta</strong> <strong>Theta</strong>'s bench marks during the decadeof the '60s, and most predictions for theupcoming decade, the 1970s, indicate that moreof the same can be expected.Expansion is a story in itself, indicating notonly a major growth period for the Fraternity,but a definite change in philosophy regardingexpansion.The Fraternity installed 24 new chapters duringthe '60s, and restored charters to three chapterswhich had lost their charters. The additionof 27 chapters in a single decade marks the Fraternity'ssecond ranking decade of expansion,topped only by the 1870s, when 34 charterswere granted. The 1880s saw the addition of 26charters.The figures are somewhat confusing becauseof the difference between charters and chapters.In the early years of the Fraternity only charterswere granted. However, in latter years charterswere lost and subsequently restored, thuscreating discrepancies between the number ofnew chapters added and the number of chartersgranted (see accompanying charts).For instance, in this story, we used the figureof 27 to indicate the number of new chaptersgained by the Fraternity during the 1960s.However, three of these chapters previously hadcharters granted in other decades.Indiana Eta was originally installed at IndianaState <strong>No</strong>rmal School on April 15, 1869,but became dormant a year later. It was reinstalledat Indiana State Sept. 12, 1969 (seeSCROLL, 11-69-75). South Carolina Beta was installedat the University of South Carolina Oct.26, 1882, but had its charter withdrawn 11years later. It was re-installed March 7, 1964(see SCROLL, 5-64-337). Florida Beta was originallyinstalled at Rollins College Feb. 2, 1935,and surrendered its charter to the GeneralCouncil in 1<strong>94</strong>3. It was re-installed Oct. 27,1968 (see SCROLL, 1-69-136).In its 122 year history, <strong>Phi</strong> <strong>Delta</strong> <strong>Theta</strong> hasgranted 169 charters. Of those, 143 were still activeat the end of the decade. Twenty-four ofthese charters have been revoked and twomerged with other chapters (Illinois <strong>Delta</strong>-Zeta,Lombard and Knox, combined in 1930, andKentucky Alpha-<strong>Delta</strong>, Centre and Central,combined in 1901).Five of the 143 chapters are currently undersuspension for various reasons (California, Tulane,Iowa, Wisconsin and Colgate). A story onthe status of these five chapters will be carriedin the May SCROLL.At present the Fraternity has three operatingcolonies: Calgary, Georgia Southern, and Nevada.The colony at Calgary is likely to be installedin 1970.story prepared by Jack McDonald (<strong>No</strong>rth Dakota'62), SCROLL editor; figures and statistics compiledby Clinton T.

Looking just at the expansionist 1960s, thelast half of the decade saw the most installations.Of the 27 installations during the 1960s,only eight were conducted during the first fiveyears of the decade. Nearly half, or 13, wereconducted during the last three years of the decade(note chart on page 205).Shortly before the start of the decade anamendment to the General Statutes providingfor the establishment of colonies as a, newmeans of expansion was added to the Fraternity'sConstitution. Prior to this time the only procedurefor establishing a chapter on a campus wasthrough the petition of an already existing localfraternity. The first chapter established by thiscolonization process was Tennessee Gamma atthe University of Tennessee, chartered in 1963.Since Tennessee Gamma's chartering, 12 chaptershave been installed through the colonizationprocess.As mentioned earlier, there are presently threecolonies. In addition, three other campuses havebeen approved for colonization: San DiegoState, Fresno State and Utah State. These threeare the only campuses of the ten approved forcolonization at the 1968 Convention (see SCROLL,11-68-78) that have not had either a colonyformed or a chapter installed.Looking at the 1960 expansion from a geographicalangle, the 27 installations were fairlyevenly split between <strong>No</strong>rth and South, with 14in the South and 13 in the <strong>No</strong>rth. On an East-West basis, using the Mississippi River as a dividingline, the split is again fairly even, with12 chapters being installed in the West and 15in the East.Actually, the use of the term East in theabove comparison is a bit inaccurate, sinceonly one of the 27 installations was East ofTennessee or Ohio, and that was South Carolina.[204]From a state point of view, there were fourinstallations in Texas, three each in Kentuckyand Florida, and two each in Indiana, Californiaand Tennessee. The others were scattered'among Wisconsin, Iowa, South Carolina, Minnesota,Michigan, Ohio, Nebraska, Louisiana,Montana and Kansas. There was one installationin Canada during the 1960s, Ontario Betaat Western Ontario.In 1960, at the beginning of the decade, <strong>Phi</strong><strong>Delta</strong> <strong>Theta</strong> had 124 active chapters; 6,384 undergraduates;68,810 living alumni; and 96,238total initiates. At the end of the decade the Fraternityhad 143 active chapters (gain of It);8,195 undergraduates (gain of 1,811); 85,583 livingalumni (gain of 16,773); and 121,443 totalinitiates (gain 25,205).<strong>Phi</strong> <strong>Delta</strong> <strong>Theta</strong>. ranked second to Sigma AlphaEpsilon throughout the decade in the totalnumber of initiates, but slipped from ninth toeleventh during the decade in the total numberof chapters, with <strong>Phi</strong> Kappa Alpha and AlphaTau Omega moving ahead of <strong>Phi</strong> <strong>Delta</strong> <strong>Theta</strong>.How does <strong>Phi</strong> <strong>Delta</strong> <strong>Theta</strong> rank as comparedto other Fraternities in the area of expansionJAccording to figures compiled on the 20 largestAmerican fraternities through the sprinf of1969, * A e was 14th in new chapters installedin the past 25 years, 11th in new chaptersin the past 10 years, and 9th in new chaptersin the past five years. Tau Kappa Epsilonwas first in all of these categories while Beta<strong>Theta</strong> Pi was last in all of them.Looking at these same 20 fraternities fromthe basis of active chapters. <strong>Phi</strong> <strong>Delta</strong> <strong>Theta</strong> is10th. Tau Kappa Epsilon is first with 289 chapterswhile <strong>Phi</strong> Kappa Psi is 20th with 83 chapters.The 1960s then, looking at the figures alone,was unquestionably an expansionist decade forthe Fraternity. The reasons for this expansionare many.One reason is simple. Everybody else is doingit as well. As noted above, <strong>Phi</strong> <strong>Delta</strong> <strong>Theta</strong> hasbeen about in the middle of the top 20 fraternitiesin expansion in the past 10 years. So, ie=spite experiencing one of the most expansionistperiods in its history,* A ewas still only averagein expansion when compared with other fraternities.Despite the many articles about the death ofthe fraternity system, as will be noted later, collegesand universities continue to request fraternitiesand sororities in record numbers as enrollmentsburgeon and the number of institutionsmultiply. <strong>Phi</strong> <strong>Delta</strong> <strong>Theta</strong> receives wellover 100 such requests yearly.Continued on p.2^':

206 THE SCROLL of <strong>Phi</strong> <strong>Delta</strong> <strong>Theta</strong> for MARCH, 1970Continued from p. 204Another reason is the change before the decadebegan which allowed colonization. This isa method followed by a great many other fraternitiesand makes expansion a bit easier.Still another reason, as expressed by a pastpresident of the General Council, Jack Shepman(Cincinnati '47) (see full comments laterin this article), is that the decade saw <strong>Phi</strong> <strong>Delta</strong><strong>Theta</strong> "change from a lethargic ultra-conservativeGreek Fraternity to a moderate conservativeone surrounded by cautious liberalism."Part of this cautious liberalism is manifested inthe Fraternity's increased willingness to expand.The Fraternity's six-man Survey Commissionhandles most of the details regarding expansion.When a group of students in a college oruniversity petitions for establishment of a <strong>Phi</strong><strong>Delta</strong> <strong>Theta</strong> chapter, the matter is referred tothe Survey Commission. The commission conductsa careful examination of the institutionto determine first, whether the welfare of theFraternity would be served by a chapter locatedthere and, second, whether the petitioninggroup would be likely to represent * A 9 creditably.If the commission reports favorably, a chartermay be granted, usually by Convention vote,but, under special circumstances, by mail votebetween Conventions. In either case, a threefourthsvote of all chapters and general officerswould be required for the petition to be actedupon favorably.In addition, after careful study, the commissionmay recommend to a Convention that certaininstitutions be considered for the establishmentof colonies. Upon approval, again bythree-fourths vote, the Fraternity will proceedwith the establishment of a local fraternitywhich may receive a charter upon three-fourthsvote of the chapters in its province, the approvalof the province president, and the unanimousconsent of the General Council.The criteria used by the commission in approvingcampuses and certain groups are many.They were spelled out ably by Dr. John D. Millett(DePauw '33) in an article in THE SCROLLof January, 1968, on p. 195. Dr. Millett, novv amember of the General Council, was at thattime chairman of the Survey Commission.The last portion of that article noted that"<strong>Phi</strong> <strong>Delta</strong> <strong>Theta</strong> is interested in an orderly expansionwhich will not exceed the capacity ofits general organization to serve such chapterseffectively. It is interested in locating new chapterswhere the institutional circumstances arefavorable to the establishment and maintenanceof a health fraternity environment."The article further noted that <strong>Phi</strong> <strong>Delta</strong><strong>Theta</strong> will locate only:• where the institution and its officers welcomefraternities in general and * A 9 in particular;• where the institution provides strong academicprograms in a great variety of disciplines;• where other national and international fraternitiesare being sought in order to ensurecompetition for membership and interfratemitycooperation;• where there is a strong local petitioninggroup or where an effective colony can be established;• where, preferably, there is an alumni clubin the vicinity;• where, preferably, the institution is a residentialcampus rather than a big-city, urbancampus; and• where there is a fairly sizable enrollment ofstudents from diverse social and economic backgroundsand where there is some advantage informing sub-groups such as fraternities.This rapid expansion will undoubtedly continueand, as many of the men questioned inthe following part of the article indicate, theexpansion rate will likely increase.Expansion, then, can safely be said to be oneof the highlights of the last decade. What wereother events or activities which could bepointed to as some of the most important for<strong>Phi</strong> <strong>Delta</strong> in the past decade?Several men active in Fraternity affairs duringthe past decade, including General Councilmembers past and present, province presidentspast and present, and General Headquartersstaff members past aiid present, werequeried on just this question and on theirthoughts concerning what the upcoming decade,the 1970s, may hold in store for the Fraternity.The replies are capsule summaries ofContinued on p. 208

The prognosis is poor. For all practical purposeswe are excluded from vast areas of highereducation such as regional campuses, junior collegesand vocational and technical schools. Thetendency of the Fraternity to become a computer-orientedbusiness will destroy its meaningfulexistence. We started with brotherhood, becamebig business, embraced all the indicia ofbureaucracy and lost the glory of our beginning.Survival in the 1970s depends on our willingnessto critically re-examine our reason forbeing and, if we find it worthy, give it a newand different commitment. Otherwise, our storymay well be chronicled: brotherhood-businessbureaucracy-busted.Robert J. Miller (New Mexico '50)A native Ohioan, Miller has been with <strong>Phi</strong><strong>Delta</strong> <strong>Theta</strong> headquarters since 1951 as fieldsecretary, assistant executive secretary, administrativesecretary and, since 1955, as executivesecretary. He is a recognized leader in the fraternitysystem.The 1960s: I suspect many persons would saythat the most significant event is that the fraternitysystem stayed alive. The public press continuesto use the fraternity system as a whippingboy and I think this makes the growthduring the past decade all the more meaningful.The single event which I feel will be recordedas the most meaningful, however, is developmentof the <strong>Phi</strong> <strong>Delta</strong> <strong>Theta</strong> EducationalFoundation. The fund came of age in the1960s, awarding scholarships to many deserving<strong>Phi</strong>s.The development of undergraduate leadershipconferences will also be recognized assignificant.The 1970s: Many of our young people willpass over that barrier into their 30s during thedecade and the adult will be popular again.College admission will likely be less restrictive,requiring stricter selective policies by fraternities.If a chapter is to continue to exist, it mustinitiate students who are going to be aroundcampus for awhile, so as a practical matter thefact of admission standards will need to betaken into consideration.The, end of in loco parentis on many campusesin the 1960s led to increased popularityin off-campus living. This may suggest that thepopularity of fraternity housing will declineand that fraternity lodges will be back in style.Fraternities will continue to expand, *A9along with the rest. I suspect that our policywill continue to be one of progressive conservatismas it has been in the past.[209]The fraternity system will not die in the1970s, nor in the '80s, the '90s or the 2000s.Donald S. Koskinen (Lawrence '50)A vice president of The George Banta Co.,Koskinen started the 1960s as president ofAlpha Province while living in Boston, Mass.,and concluded the decade as president of Iota<strong>No</strong>rth Province. He now lives in Menasha, Wis.The 1960s: The most important change wasthe elimination of the membership clause. Itwas the single most difficult decision I havemade in my association with * A 9. I hesitateto consider what our number of active chapterswould be today had not the change been approved.The 1970s: Contrary to the press and otherswho would like to see us decline, I believe thefraternity system shall continue to grow in reasonablenumbers in the next decade and beyond.Attention to Vietnam and other issues willrelieve pressures that were falsely placed uponfraternities in the past. Though we shall notgrow at the rate of college enrollments, which Idon't believe we should do, we shall at leastmatch the percentage increase, year to year,* A 9 has enjoyed during the past decade. Iwould forecast at least 160 chapters by 1980.Donald M. DuShane (Wabash '27)Currently dean of students at the Universityof Oregon, DuShane is a long-time activealumnus in ^ A @ affairs.

"I think there will still be aplace for the fraternitychapter, but only if youngmen will still wish to livetogether effectively infriendship, sound learningand rectitude."' Continued from p. 209many students to live wherever they wish anddo about what they want, without the restraintsof fraternal living; and 2) students, whiledeeply concerned about social and institutionalshortcomings, are hot inclined to interfere withother individuals, i.e. the fellow down the hallmay have problems, but they are his problemsand what business is it of mine?These changes have made it harder for manychapters to attract and to hold members, andthey are not compatible with the ideals ofbrotherhood and responsibility for our fellowson which fraternities are based.The 1970s: To be relevant to student life andneeds, fraternities must re-assess their activitiesand their ways of doing things to make themconsistent with current realities—the demandfor relevance, the educational goals of today,and the need of personalizing group living in aperiod of emphasizing individuality.Dr. John D. Millett (DePauw '33)Dr. Millett, a member of ^ A &'s GeneralCouncil since 1968, is a former chairman ofthe Survey Connnission and is currently chancellorof the Ohio Board of Regents. He wasformerly president of Miami University, Oxford,Ohio.The 1960s: The most important event was, ofcourse, the decision to leave the membership requirementsin the hands of each chapter.Other important events were the continuingexpansion and strength of the Fraternity regardlessof the student unrest of the decade.The 1970s: The major challenge will be to[211]adjust to the undergraduate campus changeswhich will occur. At present it is difficult to foreseethese changes, but we know campus environmentwill be different in 1980 from that of1970. I think there will still be a place for thefraternity chapter, but only if young men willstill wish to live together effectively in friendship,sound learning and rectitude.T. Glenn Cary (Texas Tech '56)A long-time member of the Survey Commission,Cary is a former province president aswell. He is now vice president of the GreatAmerican Reserve Insurance Co., Dallas, Tex.The 1960s: I would point to six main eventsas important in the decade:1) The tremendous increase in inquiriesfrom colleges and institutions at a time whenthe system was supposedly dying. <strong>Phi</strong> <strong>Delta</strong><strong>Theta</strong> has received more than 100 inquirieseach year from campuses wanting a chapter.2) The accelerated expansion which was aresult of the growth of colleges and the changeswhich took place in many of the institutions.Many state teacher's colleges became state universities,and with this came an interest in fraternities.3) The use of colony system to facilitate expansion.4) Pressure from institutions to grant localautonomy to our chapters so that they coulddictate membership requirements, and our acquiescenceto these demands.5) The loss of many chapters on campuseswhich became unfriendly to fraternities. Theseincluded some institutions which were once

However, by the end of the decadethis trend will reverse itself and * A 9 willagain be in demand on these campuses.3) More chapters operating without the recognitionor regulation of the institutions wherethey are located.4) Increased popularity of lodges and the declineof the chapter house.5) A change in the unanimous ballot.6) A decrease in student disturbances.7) An increased interest in establishing chaptersat junior colleges.8) Expansion of the Survey Commission toseven or nine members to cope with increasedexpansion demands.Howard E. Young (Southwestern of Tex. '46)President of the General Council since 1968,Young has served on the Council since 1964and has also served as Community ServiceDay chairman and province president. He isan insurance executive in Houston, Tex.The 1960s: On the negative side, the mostimportant development was the activity by collegefaculty members and, to a lesser extent, administrators,to harass and abuse fraternities.[212]This is prevalent where the faculty is motivatedby liberal and socialistic ideals and programs.These same groups have encouraged and abettedstudent groups.On the positive side, our progressive attitudetoward expansion has strengthened the Fraternity.We have installed chapters on once smallcolleges that are now among the great universitiesof their respective states.The 1970s: The Fraternity will experiencechanges that will alter its personality. Thesewill include a change in our pledge selectionprocess; more chapters disassociating themselvesfrom their campuses because of unwarrantedpolitical pressures on the administration fromgovernment agencies such as the Department ofHealth, Education and Welfare (HEW); lossof more chapters on campuses which have be*come dominated by the radical left philosophy;and the offsetting of these losses by expansion oncampuses with an atmosphere and environmentfriendly and responsive to the contributions ofa fraternity system.Clinton T. Willour (Whitman-Wash. '64)Currently assistant executive secretary of* A 0, Willour has been with GHQ staff since1965 as field secretary and in his present post.He began the decade by being initiated into<strong>Phi</strong> <strong>Delta</strong> <strong>Theta</strong>, in February, 1960.The 1960s: There is little doubt that thegreatest single change in * A 9 over the decadewas the removal of the clause, since thatoccupied a great bulk of the time of Conventionsand General Council meetings during thedecade. Just as the clause was the biggest Consti-


THE SCROLL of <strong>Phi</strong> <strong>Delta</strong> <strong>Theta</strong> for MARCH, 1970 213tutional question of the 1960s, I'm convincedthe unanimous ballot issue will occupy the bulkof our time in the seventies.The second most significant aspect of the1960s was # A e's expansion boom. I say thisnot so much because of the number of chaptersadded, but because of the type of campus towhich we expanded. These were the emergingcampuses—former teacher's colleges, regionalstate colleges or technical schools. This patternwill likely continue in the next decade.The development of the expanded leadershiptraining program may well rank as the thirdmost significant event of the period. Thisbrought the principles of leadership and theproblems of the Fraternity to all levels of theundergraduate chapter.Finally, the growth of the Educational Foundationhas been significant. This could becomeone of the most important areas of fraternal operationin future years.The foregoing changes have been internal.Of much more import are the changes withinhigher education. I'm afraid the fraternity systemhas done too little to adjust its life style tosuch changes as increased enrollment and activism,new patterns of living such as huge dormcomplexes and co-ed dorms, and perhaps mostimportantly, the increased desire to enjoy thefreedom of doing one's own thing. This is achallenge which faces <strong>Phi</strong> <strong>Delta</strong> <strong>Theta</strong> and thefraternity system as a whole.The 1970s: In the next decade I see considerabledebate of the unanimous ballot issue, increasedexpansion to the so-called emergingcampuses and possibly to the two year upper-divisioncampus if not the junior college (the lattermay have to wait until the 1980s) and thepersistent challenge to adjust to changing situationson campuses and among students.Ted Maragos (<strong>No</strong>rth Dakota '55)A member of the General Council since1966, Maragos lias also served ^ A Q as a fieldsecretary and province president. He is nowa graduate student at the University of <strong>No</strong>rthDakota in Grand Forks, N.D.The 1960s: The most important change was inmembership selection. It was not just the changeitself, which eliminated all vestiges of discrimination,which was so important, but the mannerin which it was brought about in the truespirit of brotherhood and without rancor. Alltoo often we replace pursuit of understandingwith makeshift and temporary tolerance. Theachievement of understanding within * A 9was the outstanding event of the decade.The decade could also be called the comingof age of the Fraternity, with a shift in emphasisin such areas as scholarship, hazing and publicimage clearly evident.The 1970s: The decade should bring evengreater expansion. Continued examination andevaluation of its role in the overall academicpicture will further bring $ A 9 and collegeadministrators into step with each other.Jack E. Shepman (Cincinnati '47)A past president of the General Council(1964-66), Shepman served on the councilfrom 1958-66. Prior to his General Councilservice he worked as a province president of"I'm afraid the fraternitysystem had done too little toadjust its life style to suchchanges as increasedenrollment and activism,new patterns of living andthe increased desire to doone's own thing."

He is now an executivewith Motorola Consumer Products Inc.,Chicago, 111.[214]The 1960s: The greatest event was that <strong>Phi</strong><strong>Delta</strong> <strong>Theta</strong> changed from a lethargic, ultraconservativeGreek Fraternity to a modern conservativeone surrounded by cautious liberalism.I base this generalization on several factors:1) The great expansion;2) The realization that the membershipclause had to go if the Fraternity was tosurvive;3) The realization that changes had to bemade, in a Fraternity designed for the developmentof undergraduates in 1848, to meet theway of life and student needs of the present;4) The realization that tradition, a wonderful,emotional, binding factor bridging the communicationsgap between alumni and undergraduates,also serves as a girdle of strangulationif we continue to live in the past and allowsuch statements as, "That is the way we did itbefore, and I would rather see * A 9 die thanchange";5) The decision to invest heavily in a leadershipconference geared to the undergraduateand reinforced by alumni experience, a key tostrength and growth of * A 9;6) The change in General Council votingprocedures that means we are not following aseniority-type of movement within the GeneralCouncil to its presidency. The lowering of theage level of the council has also been healthyand wise.The 1970s: First I believe the leadership conferencesshould be reinforced by calling uponexpert, qualified educators and outside trainingagencies to help in its presentation.The Fraternity will continue to expand, withthe colonization process used even more extensivelythan it has been in the past.The change in the membership clause was amust. I do not view the unanimous ballot issuein the same way. Personally, I favor the unanimousballot. Perhaps we could get along withan 85%-90% vote just as well. But, on the otherhand, with every campus telling us what percentageto use, our right to govern ourselves will bedestroyed. I believe this violates our personalrights and I think we should stand firm on thispoint, even if it means the loss of several chapters.I don't believe we can continue to exist onsome campuses where the last two decades havedes;troyed institution-fraternity relations.There should also be more serious considerationtoward the financing and help of chapterhousing. With no personal criticism intended, Ifeel our attitudes in this area reflect thinking ofthe '30s and '40s, and is too conservative.I would not be adverse to seeing an undergraduateserve in an advisory or consulting capacityat General Council meetings, but I donot recommend an undergraduate as a memberof the council.Lothar A. Vasholz (Colorado '52)A member of the General Council since1968, Vasholz has also served the Fraternityas a field secretary, province president andCommunity Service Day chairman. He is as-


THE SCROLL of <strong>Phi</strong> <strong>Delta</strong> <strong>Theta</strong> for MARCH, 1970 215sociated with the Life Insurance Agency ManagementAssociation, Hartford, Conn.The 1960s: The decade was notable for threemain achievements:1) The resolution of the emotional problemssurrounding the membership clause. This waseven more noteworthy because it came throughmethods of patience, discussion and honest selfexamination.2) The introduction of leadership conferenceswhich provide a vehicle for communicationsbetween alumni and undergraduates, betweenchapters, and between the officers of theFrateriiity and undergraduates.3) A change in attitude by general Fraternityofficers to a deeper understanding of theneed for communication and listening to undergraduateopinions and attitudes. This was notmissing previously, but is more noticeable today.The 1970s: I feel the Fraternity will find itselfmore related to the current situation, moreinvolved in campus and community work. TheCommunity Service Day, for example, willdeepen into a constant activity rather than aone-day or one-weekend affair.Our growth will continue, probably on campusesthat a few years ago we would not haveconsidered. We will regain strength in the Eastand far West as current liberal attitudes moveout of these areas and leave a vacuum that canbe partially filled by group activities builtaround the fraternity concept.The Fraternity will have continued difficultyfinding alumni volunteer help. This is a resultof lack of communications between undergraduatesand the alumni, and between the Fraternityand its alumni. To remedy this we willhave to find a more effective means of gettingalumni involved at all levels.There will be increasing pressures for localautonomy. The Fraternity will have to increaseits efforts to get local chapters to appreciate theadvantages and benefits of an international Fraternity.The Fraternity will have to watchclosely local autonomy moves so that if a chapterdoes say it is acting autonomously, it is notjust practicing an autonoiny imposed upon itby college officials.There will also be more chapters existing oncampus without official sanction. This shouldcause no problems to the Fraternity and indeedwill aid the students even more in learning tosolve their problems on their own.Ray BlackweU (Franklin '24)There are very few posts in $ A 0 Blackwellhas not held. His most recent were editorof THE SCROLL and, for 14 years (1953-67),alumni secretary. He is now Fraternity historianand scholarship commissioner for theNational Interfratemity Conference. He livesin Oxford, Ohio.The 1960s: The most important developmentwas the change in our meinbership requirements.As was said at the 1966 Convention, thegood ship <strong>Phi</strong> "has chartered a new course."The weakening of * A 9's prestige by theloss of some of our old and great chapters onhighly respected campuses is a major debit ofthe decade. In some cases, though not in all, I"We will regain strength inthe East and far West ascurrent liberal attitudesmove out of these areas andleave a vacuima that can bepartially filled by groupactivities built around thefraternity concept."


"The Fraternity must findsome constructive method toprevent chapters fromdeteriorating to the pointthat these chapters are suchliabilities that the Fraternityis strengthened by their loss."would agree that at the hour of loss * A 9was made stronger because of the loss. This wasdue to the sharp decline in the quality of thechapter immediately prior to its demise.The responsibility for permitting these chaptersto become such liabilities must be laid totheir alumni and the General Fraternity. It wasthe old story of a failure to take "the stitch intime."<strong>No</strong> personal criticism is meant in the abovestatements. However, the Fraternity must findsome constructive method to prevent chaptersfrom deteriorating to the point that these chaptersare such liabilities that the Fraternity isstrengthened by their loss. This method willhave to include better early detection by* A '9's GHQ staff and immediate action, asdrastic as needed, by the General Council incollaberation with chapter alumni and campusofficers.The 1970s: The major concern will be toguide the good ship <strong>Phi</strong> through such troubledwaters as: continued opposition to the clausechange; demands for the end to the unanimousballot and more local autonomy; continued andperhaps increasing opposition by pressuregroups; continued exercise of poor judgementby chapters in staging activities which result inadverse public relations; rising costs; the strangulationof rush by too many rules; and thefailtire to work closely with other fraternities onthe campus and international level on commonproblems.<strong>Phi</strong> <strong>Delta</strong> <strong>Theta</strong> has navigated such troublesomeseas in the past and I'm confident it willdo so in the upcoming decade.[216]Harry Gerlach (Miami of Ohio '30)Another multi-positioned alumnus, Gerlachhas served as a field secretary, chapter .advis&tr,,province president and twice as ScholarshipCommissioner, a post he currently holds inaddition to chairing the Arthur R. PriestFoundation. He is an executive with the CollegeEntrance Examination Board in Austin,Texas.The 1960s: The most important and farreaching events of the decade would have to includethe elimination of the membership clause,the rapid expansion, the development of leadershipconferences and the increasing amount ofalumni contributions.The 1970s: I would hope the decade will seethe inclusion of undergraduates on the GeneralCouncil. There is a need for creative and newideas. One of the best ways to achieve thiswould be through inclusion of undergraduateson the council. This would necessarily mean alarger council, and we need that too. The councilneeds more workers in its membership. Acombination of recognized alumni leaders andundergraduate leaders could produce some interestingresults.I think the decade will also see a return tothe belief in the ideal of fraternity as a way ofcollegiate life; the development of regionalstructures in the governance, development andpromotion of the Fraternity; extensive developmentof the * A 9 Educational Foundation;and development of new and creative contributionsto the social structure of colleges anduniversities.•

But it's not with one ofthe many beautiful women the 35-year-old <strong>Phi</strong>is constantly meeting as the star of ABC-TV's"The Courtship of Eddie's Father."The object of Bixby's attention is his 6-yearoldco-star, Brandon Cruz. As Bixby puts it, "Asa bachelor, I'd never been around kids. I didn'tparticularly like them, but with Brandon I'vehad such a ball. I love that boy. I've got to getmarried and have a kid of my own."Bixby, who was known as Wilfred B. Bixbyto his California Alpha chapter brothers, joinsthree other <strong>Phi</strong>s in prime time television thisseason. Ted Bessell (Colorado '57) stars inABC's "That Girl," Mike Connors (UCLA '50)is seen in CBS' "Mannix," and Tim Conway(Bowling Green '56) is tearing up the sky as acharter pilot in CBS' second-season entry, "TheTim Conway Show."In the series Bixby plays Tom Corbett, a widowerwith a son, Eddie, who wants a new wifefor his father and a mother for himself.One of the unique parts of the show are thesegments called "peanuts," those little one-minutebits that open and close the show in whichBixby and Cruz stroll the beach. They're filmedwith an 800-mm. lens from so far away that theactors have no idea what is being photographed.There's no direction to the bits, justwhat comes naturally. The dialog is unpolished,natural speech—the things a little boy says to agrown-up.The series is the second one for Bixby, wholast fall appeared in a segment of ABC's "Love—American Style" with Connie Stevens. His firstseries was "My Favorite Martian." Other TV assignmentshave included "The Danny ThomasShow," "The Andy Griffith Show," and the early"Joey Bishop Show." He was a semi-regular onthe Bishop show when tapped for his three-yearstint with a visiting Martian.A sixth-generation San Franciscan, Bixby becameinterested in the theater in high schooland continued to perform in student productionsthrough college. During summer vacationshe worked and organized shows at a resort inJackson Hole, Wyo.After college and the Army, he came back toHollywood with a five-year-plan for an actingcareer. He said that if he hadn't been successfulby the end of five years, he was planning ongoing to law school. But it never came to thatas he steadily worked his way up to starringroles.He is the son of Wilfred E. Bixby (California'30).•[217]

^'Give A Damn>)Dr. Frederick L. Hovde (Minnesota '29)President, Purdue University


THE SCROLL of <strong>Phi</strong> <strong>Delta</strong> <strong>Theta</strong> for MARCH, 1970 221"Give a Damn" was the name of a program at PurdueUniversity last year in which President Frederick L.Hovde (Minnesota '29) met with students and, afterprepared preliminary remarks, fielded questions from theaudience. What follows are excerpts from that exchangewhich provide some real insights into problems facingboth a president and a student body at a largeuniversity.STUDENTS: What is yoiur conception of thestudent's role in the university? Over whataspects of his life at Purdue has the student theright of self-determination (voice in faculty andadministrative decisions)?President Hovde: Participation in the managementof the university is not a right grantedto students when they apply for admission. It isa matter of educational practice, and theamount of it is determined by the extent towhich those who want to participate are willingto meet the requirements of participation. Ihave never found anybody who could participateeffectively in affairs of importance simplyby walking in and expressing his view off thetop of his head. Most of the matters that are ofreal importance in the university require a lotof time, study and consideration; the decisionsmust in the end be based upon the institution'sconcept of good educational practice for thestudents of the university.When a student leaves his family, generallyafter graduation from high school, and comesto the university, he must begin the process ofmaking his own personal decisions in regard towhat he wants to do with himself. You all comethe university to learn and there are many waysof learning. To learn you must subject yourselfto the discipline of learning because no one canlearn without applying his intellect and hissenses to the problem of learning—it can't bepoured into anybody. Your acceptance to theuniversity implies that you accept the educationalregimen that is laid down by the universityas well as the rules and regulations that areestablished by the total management authoritiesof the university—the faculty on the one handand the Board of Trustees on the other-toachieve our educational objectives.Every decision you make as individuals fromhere on out you must live with, and no one elsecan do much about it. I spent a good manyyears counseling students—a few thousand ofthem—when I was a young member of the facultyat the University of Minnesota; I came toknow these young people and went through theprocess of trying to help them make wiser decisionsas to what they were to do with themselves,what they were to make of themselves asindividuals.I couldn't make the decisions for them. Icould only help them make their own decisions.This is the problem that all of you face in theuniversity. Individually and collectively, you dohave the power to influence this institution. Asa matter of fact, you have influence and author-


222 THE SCROLL of <strong>Phi</strong> <strong>Delta</strong> <strong>Theta</strong> for MARCH, 1970ity and power with respect to almost every aspectof the operation of this university. Yourvoice, your expression of ideas, your input withrespect to the curriculum, etc., will have to beworked out with the faculties of the schools, facultysenate and faculty committees. This is alreadytaking place: The student body itself isdiverse and large and consists of male and female,undergradute and graduate students; itconsists of people in all the professional schoolsand those in the schools of science and humanities.The problem of representation of student interestsand student opinions is a difficult one. Itwill have to be worked out in some way. Actually,the work of a university is done in committees—committeesof the faculty, committeesof the departments> committees of the schools,administrative committees. Almost no phase ofthe university's operation goes on without committeesand this is where the input takes place.This is proceeding apace at this university andwill probably continue to improve as the demonstratedcapabilities of students lead to a betterinstitution.Students: When members of the studentbody or a student organization come intoconflict with the general policies of theuniversity, who has the authority to negotiatewith them?President Hovde: This depends upon the natureof the conflict. If it is within the jurisdictionof the faculty, then the matter must go tothe appropriate faculty committees in theschools of the university or in the faculty senate.If it concerns administrative matters itmight go to the department head. It might goto the dean of the school if it is at that level. Itmight go to the appropriate vice president, dependingon the nature of the conflict. Or itmight eve'n come to the president's office. Butthe vice presidents act with the authority of thepresident in their respective positions; thedeans too act with respect to the presidentialauthority in the schools of the university, andwithin the schools the department heads exerciseadministrative authority over the affairs ofeach departrhent of the university.Students: Do you feel there are adequatecommunications between students andadministration, between faculty and administration,between one administratorand another; and how could existingchannels be strengthened or are newchannels to be added?President Hovde: With respect to the prob-Frederick L. Hovde—the top scorer in the Big 10as a quarterback at the University of Minnesota,an outstanding collegiate basketball player, a RhodesScholar, and for the past 23 years president ofPurdue University-^has announced he will retireas president June 30,1971.The 61-year-old Hovde will continue ens aspecial consultant for three years after hisretirement as a member of the Purdue ResearchFoundation staff and Board of Directors. He was,the youngest Big 10 president when he took thehelm at Purdue Jan. 1,1<strong>94</strong>6, at the age of 37.He recently received the National CollegiateAthletic Association's highest award, the TheodoreRoosevelt Award, or "Teddy," as a prominent American"for whom competitive athletics in college andattention to physical well-being thereafter havebeen important factors in a distinguished careerof national significance and achievement."As a Rhodes Scholar he played three years ofbasketball and rugby at Oxford, and was the thirdAmerican ever to win the Oxford Blue in rugby.He has served for several years on <strong>Phi</strong> <strong>Delta</strong><strong>Theta</strong>'s Lou Gehrig Award Committee.


THE SCROLL of <strong>Phi</strong> <strong>Delta</strong> <strong>Theta</strong> for MARCH, 1970 223lem of communication between all members ofthe entire community, communication is neversatisfactory. It is never complete, never timelyenough, never done in advance of serious problemssimply because many of them can't be predicted.Communication is a problem that wework on constantly and have to work on constantly.We have many channels; the problem istQ make them function effectively in a busy,busy world in which all of us have more to dothan we possibly can do.Every two years when I deal with the membersof the General Assembly of the State of Indiana,the one thing they always say is, "Whydon't you communicate with the people of theState of Indiana and tell them your needs atthe University and get support for the needs ofthe University?" Well, you can write and publishand talk until you are exhausted, but youcan't communicate with people unless they areinterested in the subject to be communicated.There are ways to improve communication.We have experts on our faculty in the field ofcommunication, and we have the channels; withrespect to the members of the administration,we have weekly meetings of all senior membersof the staff of the university. We have somescheduled meetings of the deans, the deans havedepartmental meetings with the departmentheads. There is a whole panaoply of scheduledmeetings, and of course there is an enormousamount of communication that goes on in thetotal committee structure of the university. Butthere is never any adequate communication onany issue, and I don't know if there ever will be.One desires this and one wants this. The onlyway you can accomplish it is to work at it andwork at it harder and harder and harder.Students: What roles, responsibilities andpowers do student organizations such asStudent Government have?President Hovde: Well, all of you knowthere are more than 300 student organizationsregistered or approved or recognized by the university,more than 300 student organizationsserving the extracurricular interests of our studentsat Purdue University. The university, ofcourse, requires under its rules that all studentorganizations have a constitution defining whatthey propose to do with an organization. Theorganization must be in accordance with the educationalobjectives and purposes of the universityand serve the cultural, recreational and intellectualinterests of its student members if theqrganization is to be permitted to use universityfacilities.This whole business of student organizationshas a long history. There have been student organizationssince the university was founded.Those of you who are new members of the universityaren't familiar with this history whichled the university many years ago to require, forinstance, the registration of student organizations,the drawing up of constitutions, and therequirement that their budgets be sound fiscallyand that financial management not allow anyoneto feather his own pockets. These regulationswere established as the result of bad experiencesof this kind and to protect the membersof the student body from some of theirown individuals. This institution of rules wasput into effect long ago.If the student organization has for its purposesa program that contributes to the educational,cultural and recreational life of membersof the student body, then there is no bar; indeed,they're welcomed into the total environmentof this university. The student officers andmembers of these student organizations ofcourse are fully responsible for their programs.They only have to comply with a few simplepolicies and regulations governing the use of ourfacilities. The facilities of the university mustbe maintained and managed and scheduled, andthe large number of organizations require thatthese things by managed and scheduled sensiblyfor the interests of all involved.As for our Student Government, it is an organizationthat can take action in the form of resolutionsand bills and communications with respectto any matter of interest to the students atthe university. And it can communicate its consideredviews as a student government to allmembers of the university—the faculty or thefaculty senate or the administration.Students: What are your views on placingboth a student and a faculty member onthe Board of Trustees in either a votingor a non-voting capacity?President Hovde: I wouldn't have any objectionpersonally. The problem is to get the lawchanged. I would raise a serious question as tohow the student would be selected, and I wouldraise the very practical point that a student ishere for only a short time. You certainlywouldn't elect a freshman. You might elect asophomore if he were good enough and brightenough and well-known enough to representyou on the Board of Trustees. But we find thatit takes about three years for a Trustee to becomefully acquainted with the work of the universityand the magnitude of the informationthat he receives at each board meeting. So theproblem is not so much that one doesn't want


"Participation in themanagement of the universityis nota rightgranted to students when theyapplyfor admission. It is a matterof educational practice."young people or students on the Board ofTrustees, it is the transitory nature of the studentand the problem of who does the representationand how he should be selected.Students: President Hovde, will the adversepublicity caused by the Peace Unionand similar groups have an effect on thesize of appropriations from the legislatureand from the alumni?President Hovde: I hope not. One can't answerthat question because the plain fact remainsthat despite all the difficulties and despiteall the troubles, 90% of the American familieswant their sons and daughters to go to college;nothing can destroy the system of highereducation in our society. There will be temporaryrestrictions and setbacks, but nothing candestroy, in my humble judgement, the veryworthwhileness of the whole purpose of the universityin this society. I don't care what systemdevelops or is in vogue or used, the work of educationand the contribution to knowledgethrough research and scholarly work is absolutelynecessary for the advancement of any society.Students: What will be your stand on futuredemonstrations such as those involvingDow Chemical and CIA interviews?Do you feel forceful opression of studentunrest is the answer to campus peace?President Hovde: The answer is very simple.We will not allow any group of students orgroup of people to disrupt the normal operationsof the university. Surely, neither theTrustees not the faculty have any power to takeaway the constitutional rights of any person orany group of people. Conversely, it is unlawfulfor any organized group to take away the constitutionalrights that belong to all of you ascitizens. But there is no reason why any group,because they happen to believe some particularthing or espouse some particular cause, shouldbe allowed to disrupt the work of this university.[224]Students: What type of action or positionwill be taken in relation to the Athletic Department'sdecision to deny cheerleaders'entrance to the Arena, to the floor, priorto playing the National Anthem lastSaturday?President Hovde: <strong>No</strong>ne. I appreciate verymuch some people indicating that those whowould use the Black Salute when the NationalAnthem is played do not mean any disrespectfor the flag or the National Anthem. But untilpeople understand this, it will be a disrespectfulact in the minds of all the people. Thisagain is a problem of understanding.Students: Did you really say that the bestinstructor on campus was the footballcoach? If so, do you still believe that statement?President Hovde: Isn't it fantastic? In a casualconversation on the football field with a reporterthat was here from Sports Illustrated, wewere watching the practice and I said that themembers of the coaching staff do one of thebest teaching jobs in the university, in the sensethat they have to put on display the results oftheir teaching every Saturday afternoon.This isthe complete observation.Students: I think you can see how SportsIllustrated would have trouble quotingthat. What do you think of GovernorWhitcomb's statement that possibly stateuniversities should be privately financed?President Hovde: I think your question wasreferring to Governor Whitcomb's recent speechin which he threw up as a trial balloon the economictheory that all students of the universityshould pay the full cost of their education whilethey are students at the university, and then thestate would presumably set up a mechanismwhereby all students could borrow what moneythey needed to pay the full cost of their educationat Purdue, and then, later, pay off thatloan.<strong>No</strong>w this is not something to laugh at; thereare many people who have advanced this theory—the theory might be explained in these terms:students are the ones receiving the education,they are the principle beneficiaries; therefore,they should pay for it. But I look on it as atrial balloon, and I am sure the Governor himselfmentioned it merely to see what reactionshe would get from the educational authoritiesof the state, the students and their famihes.And here is where you, the students, have astake, and it is an important enough Americanpolicy for you to interest yourself in it.


THE SCROLL of <strong>Phi</strong> <strong>Delta</strong> <strong>Theta</strong> for MARCH, 1970 225Students: Could you tell us what is beingdone to recruit black administrators andfaculty?President Hovde: The problem of recruitingblack administrators and faculty is a problem ofmusical chairs at the present time in the UnitedStates. If we go to another institution and takea competent, qualified black individual, a memberof the faculty, away from that institution,that institution loses him—and we gain him.The problem will never be satisfactorily solvedin our society until the present students, thepresent black students, finish their degrees andget into the mainstream of black participationin the educational process. We hunt all thetime for competent people to join our staff, butit's a game of musical chairs at this time.ifStudents: Do you think the Black Saluteis appropriate or not at Purdue athleticevents and why?President Hovde: If someone could define forme what is meant by the Black Salute, the reasonsfor it and why individuals want to give it,and this definition was satisfactory to me interms of respect for the flag and so on, then Iwould have no objections personally. But a persondoesn't sit when the National Anthem isbeiiig played, if you're outside you take offyour hat. You show respect for the flag andthe National Anthem. And to show disrespectto it isn't going to make any friends for anybody.Students: Presideiit Hovde, why don't studentsget any choice in instructors ortimes for courses as they do at severallarge universities in instructor selectionsuch as at the University of Illinois?President Hovde: I'm not sure that they havecomplete instruction selection at Illinois. Theplain fact of the matter is that it's too difficultto schedule and arrange the free choice option.It just can't be done and managed with limitedfacilities and the scheduling hours and problems^Students: What was your reaction to thepublication of the Responsible Screw?President Hovde: <strong>No</strong>ne whatsoever. Youwant a frank answer, I give it to you. Anybodycan print and write anything they please.Students: President Hovde, do you feelthat a student senate should be an educationalactivity or a legislative body representingthe students? If you feel it is alegislative body, would you be opposed to"There is no reason why anygroup, because theyhappen to believe someparticularthing or espouse someparticular cause, should beallowed todisrupt the work of thisuniversity."


"I think student unrest isevidence ofa general malaise with the waythe affairs of menare managed. The world hasnever been noted forthe wayit could manage its affairs."granting student senate a decision-makingrole in campus affairs as opposed to thepresent reconmiending role?President Hovde: That is a difficult questionto answer in one fell swoop. It depends entirelyupon what we are talking about—whether it is amanagement role, a legislative role, and so on. Iwould be generally happy if the student governmentand its committees took an active interestin making recommendations and improvingthings around this university, demonstratingthat they can do so.Students: Do you feel they haven'tPresident Hovde: I believe that student governmenthas done a good job.Students: What would you feel regardingthe question of visitation and granting studentsenate the authority to establish thelimitations so that visitations would beadopted on this campus—similar to thesituation at I.U.?President Hovde: I wouldn't favor it, frommy point of view as president of the university.Students: Can you Clarify that?President Hovde: The power to build andmaintain and operate and control the residencehall system of the university is giyen to theBoard of Trustees, and the commitments theBoard of Trustees has made to the people thathave loaned us the money to build them, demandbond indentures which require the Boardof Trustees to take whatever action may be necessaryto fill the dormitories and to charge whateverfees are necessary to make them financiallyviable and to pay off the bonds and interest.And so the Board of Trustees is committed tomanage these dormitories to meet the conditionsof the indentures.Furthermore, we look on the management ofthe dormitories as part of the total educational[226]environment of this university. The total educationalenvironment of this university involvesthe total environment of the residence halL Ithink that complete open visitation and Ho staiidardsare incompatible with high educationalobjectives, judgement based on the educationaltheory of the residence hall where people livetogether.Students: The question didn't particularlyregard complete open visitation. It wasdirected more to allowing student senateto establish the limits within which theindividual residence units could establishPresident Hovde: In any ev6nt, I don't thinkthis is a function of the student senate. It is thefunction of the people who live in the residencehalls.Students: The residence hall governmentbodies in many residence halls are currentlyestablishing dress standards, whichfalls within the traditional realm of authorityof the Board of Trustee as ownersof the residence halls. Don't you feel sucha policy could be adopted regarding visitation?President Hovde: It could be, but I doubtwhether the Trustees would approve it.Students: How do you feel about the dressstandards—the fact that this decision isoften made by students?President Hovde: I do feel that dress standardsare important in any place that studentslive. Dress standards are important at all times.There are some times when cortiplete informalityof dress is satisfactory, of course, to all ofus. The setting of dress standards and so on is afunction for those who manage the halls andthose who live there, and that's the way it'sdone. The setting of hours is too, for that matter.Students: Student unrest seems to be aworld-wide phenomenon. Do you see anygeneral principles at work here—i.e. Communism?President Hovde: There are many theoriesadvanced for student unrest in all parts of theworld. I think it's evidence bf a general malaisewith the way the affairs of men are managed.The world has never been noted for the way itcould manage its affairs. It's been one long historyof wars, and even we can't make theUnited Nations work, as theoretically sensibleas it is.•


AreFraternitiesAndSororitiesGoingOutOfBusinessBy Bill LandersOregon '52The past two issues of THE SCROLL have carriedarticles by men active in fraternity work(Disestablish Or Disaffiliate?, Dr. John D. Millett,11-69-70; What Course For Greeks In TheNext Decade?, Dr. Elden T. Smith, 1-70-138)concerning the future of the Greek system.Here is a look at the Greeks and their futurefrom one outside of the "Greek establishment."Bill Landers has served on the faculty at hisalma mater and with the American YearbookPublishing Co. He is now public relationsdirector for the University of Oregon's AthleticDepartment. His article initially appearedin the September-October, 1969, issue of theOld Oregon, the magazine of the University ofOregon Alumni Association. © 1969, UOAlumni Association.IT IS not difficult to find any number of peoplewho will tell you that it is time to runthe following obituary notice:Mr. Frank Frat, a well known memberof the University family, passed awayquietly in his campus home today. He wasiii his 69th year. Having been plaguedwith a variety of debilitating illnesses inrecent years, he succumbed after an attemptwas made to give him a new heart.While early reports on his recovery wereguardedly optimistic, complications set inand the traumatic effects of the surgerywere too much for his already weakenedsystem. He is survived by one sister. MissSally Sorority, who is also in frail health.The bulk of Mr. Frat's estate, consistingmostly of voluminous files of old examinationpapers, an interesting collection ofantique furniture, and a number of unusualphotographs, will go to the Universityof Oregon Development Fund.[227]These folks will express surprise only at thequiet manner of his passing. Just a few shortyears ago they were predicting a much more violentend for the rascal, possibly kicking andgurgling at the end of a rope while cheering villagersdanced around him with their torches. Atany rate, they say, let's get the old boy in theground and get on with the serious business ofgoing to college.The editor of this magazine had heard rumorsof the low condition of the Greek systemand called me in to assess the damage for him.My credentials for the task are fairly simple. As


228 THE SCROLL of <strong>Phi</strong> <strong>Delta</strong> <strong>Theta</strong> for MARCH, 1970an undergraduate I signed the Bond of <strong>Phi</strong><strong>Delta</strong> <strong>Theta</strong> as the 636th member of the Oregonchapter. Serving my last year as house managergave me an insight into the real workingsof a fraternity. This was in the 1<strong>94</strong>9-54 periodin the old barn on the corner of 14th and Kincaid,and my recollections of those days are, Iconfess, fond ones. Later years have made mecritical of some of the basic flaws I see in thesystem. It is true, however, that I felt extremelyclose to the men (boys?). I went through thehouse with them, and they are today, 20 yearslater, still my valued friends. Among them arethe two or three closest friends I will have inmy life.While on the faculty at Oregon some yearslater I had occasion to work with the Fraternityagain as a new house was built, and had an opportunityto assess the undergraduates of 10years after my own period as a student. Andnow, another 10 years later, I have taken anotherlook. Old Frank Frat is not the lusty fellowhe once was, but it is still a bit early forthe shovels. Eyelid flutters can be detected anda mirror pressed to his mouth will show fainthints of fogging.And what of his sister, little Sally? Her outwardappearance is certainly better thanFrank's but there is some bad inner chemistry.She entered the change of life a few years agoand then refused to change. The condition is,perhaps, not irreversibly terminal.A few facts:• There were three fewer sororities on thecampus this fall than there were a year ago.Alpha Xi <strong>Delta</strong>, Alpha Gamma <strong>Delta</strong>, and<strong>Delta</strong> Zeta have folded.• <strong>Phi</strong> Gamma <strong>Delta</strong> fraternity left the campuslast spring and two other fraternities may followit out this year. At the same time SigmaAlpha Mu reopens its chapter on the Oregoncampus after a few years' absence.• In recent years the real "Sweethearts" of SigmaChi turn out to be a number of non-affiliatedboarders brought into the chapter house to helppay the rent.• In the school year of 1<strong>94</strong>8-49 the Greeks represented30 per cent of the total school population.Ten years later in the 1958-59 year, withthe school population remaining about thesame as in 1<strong>94</strong>9, the Greek population was alsoabout the same at 30 per cent. In the last schoolyear the population of Oregon for all sessionswas right at 15,000 and the Greek percentagehad dived to less than 15 per cent.What happened? Why the big drop in relativestrength for the system in the last 10 years?The fraternity-sorority system has always beenin trouble. Prior to WWII it was the symbol ofprivilege on campus. America, through the eyesof the press, saw the Greek houses as sinfulnests from which indolent young men andwomen flew out on a continuing round ofdrinking and petting parties while small attentionwas paid to the pursuit of knowledge andscholarship. Many were the tales of brokenheartedcoeds, their college careers cruelly destroyedbecause of the snobbish rejection ofsome sorority. The girl was inevitably vivacious,pretty, and highly intelligent but, alas, her fatherwas a poor millhand or perhaps a garbageman. A country that makes a great noise aboutit democratic traditions finds it hard to abidean institution which flaunts its rejection of thisideal. The fa^t that true democracy in Americain the '30s was more myth than fact did notquiet the cry against the Greeks.And the public would get uptight with thefraternities when they would, from time totime, kill one of their initiates while conductinghim through the rituals necessary to the grantingof full brotherhood in the clan.Then in the '50s black people were discoveredin the United States. Some of them felt thefact of their blackness was an unacceptable reasonfor exclusion from the Greek temples ofbrotherhood and sistership, and there was agrowing body of citizens who agreed with them.The racial issue brought on a siege of relentlessand powerful proportions. Past difficultiesdidn't come close to matching the magnitude ofthis challenge and at stake was the sanctity ofthe blackball.Under the blackball system of selecting newmembers it is necessary that the prospect be acceptableto every member. <strong>No</strong>t every member ofa particular chapter, you understand, but everymember in the world. Wild. Since polling everymember in the world on every candidate wouldbe awkward and terribly time consuming . . .well, certain basic guidelines—The Clauseevolvedto aid the members in their selections.The wording of the guideline varied with thedifferent chapters but the message was remarkablyconsistent. White. Christian.As the battle over "The Clause" raged oncampuses across the nation it was evident thatlarge numbers of alumni fraternity men preferredto have the ship go down with battleflags flying and the five-inch guns blazing ratherthan take unwelcome boarders over the side.And many ships across the country did, indeed,go to the bottom.At Oregon the fraternity consensus was that"The Clause" had to go. Donald DuShane


(Wabash '27), Dean of Students at Oregon andan international officer of <strong>Phi</strong> <strong>Delta</strong> <strong>Theta</strong> atthat time, was one of the early challengers ofdiscriminatory clauses at the international level.Most Oregon fraternities joined other chaptersin the nation to fight for charter reforms. Itwas, and is, a difficult fight because of thestrength of the Southern chapters who havemade it a fight to the death for retention of the"mutually acceptable" concept of membership.The structure of fraternity organizationsmakes them close kin to the American MedicalAssociation and the Daiighters of the AmericanRevolution as riders of the backward saddle,spurring their mounts on toward destinations inview over the horses' tails. Most fraternitywatchers claim that this superconservative leadershipstyle is changing and will continue tochange as younger men take over the offices. Itwould be difficult for it to worsen.Within the last two years about a dozenblacks have gone, without publicity, quietlyinto the Greek system. They all joined fraternities.The sororities remain lily white, althoughthe chapters claim the reason cannot be blamedon any racial clauses in their charters. Thetruth is that there are not any black girls whoW.• ^


230 THE SCROLL of <strong>Phi</strong> <strong>Delta</strong> <strong>Theta</strong> for MARCH, 1970want to join a sorority. And while at first examinationthe figure of 12 blacks going into thefraternities is impressive, given the history ofdiscrimination in the Greek system, the figureloses some of its gloss when it is learned thatmost of the 12 have just as quietly depledgedand slipped back into the circle of their ownfellow blacks to live. In some cases it seemsclear that subtle or overt pressures werebrought to bear by the more militant blacks toaccomplish this depledging. In most cases, however,after a period in the fraternities the individualsfelt they would be more comfortable bydropping out.why have fraternities advanced farther towardintegration than sororities? Probably becauseathletics have served as an integratingagent for the men (most of the blacks thatpledged were athletes). <strong>No</strong> such "pre-mix" hasexisted for the women. In any event, the blacks,by and large, seem to be declining to joinGreek houses, a reaction that pretty well makesmoot the question of Greek racial discrimination.In the mid '60s the first hints of the comingcampus revolution came blowing on the wind.An advance band of activists was starting tochallenge the comfortable order of the universityestablishment.A by-product of this new mood of activismwhich could have profound effect on the Greekswas the seriousness which came to pervade theatmosphere surrounding the new order. Therewas, of course, nothing lighthearted about thedeath lists from Viet Nam, the squalor of theghettos, the sorrowful history of black Americansin our society, and the countless other culturalcancers which these students took on astheir own personal crosses to bear. Zealots andtrue believers have no time for frivolous timewasting activities such as float parades anddress-up dances. Time wasted in laughter couldbe better used in planning a protest. Time wasvery much with us, and if we were to have theworld's ills cured by next Thursday then therewas certainly no time for a beer bust onWednesday.It was along about this time that fun wentout of fashion, and fun was one thing theGreeks knew something about.Of course, all fraternities and sororities haveformal statements of belief which delineate thelofty ideals which make the fact of their existenceessential to the well-being of society ingeneral. Somewhere in each of these documentswill be a statement alluding to their burningcommitment to scholarship, their pious concernfor the teachings of the Bible (New Testamentpreferred), a deep-seated sense of patriotism forboth the United States of America and theMother University and always, the affirmationof their intent to love all the brothers or sisterspast, present and future. With a very few exceptionsthe scholarship record of the fraternitiesis sorry indeed, and the drift toward blatantChristianity has yet to be detected. Love ofcountry, university, and fellow man is hard togauge and so perhaps it may be conceded thatthe Greeks have in these endeavors, served well.But when it comes to having fun the Greekswrote the book. In this undertaking they knowno peer and their history is rich with fabled revelriesof yesteryear. There is an unwritten traditionalchallenge to try to surpass in grandeurand scope those bacchanalian triumphs of thepast.And when that sort of thing lost favor it tookfrom the Greeks the one thing they knew howto do better than anyone else. Is it a wonderthat the will to survive might ebb?I asked Tom Chapman about fraternity survival.Tom was a Beta at Oregon in the late"Some resent this constantcloseness and its resultantlessening of privacy."


THE SCROLL of <strong>Phi</strong> <strong>Delta</strong> <strong>Theta</strong> for MARCH, 1970 231'40s and early '50s. He is now <strong>No</strong>rthwest chieffor the fraternity. The lines in Tom's face aregrooved for affability; he smiles easily, and he isa nice guy. Tom Chapman says there will alwaysbe fraternities even if you don't call themthat. He says that it is the likes and dislikes, theguiding characteristics of the individual, thatwill cause him to gravitate to others of like temperament.Young men, Tom contends, like tolive with those they like.There is an undeniable logic in what he says.But can fraternities evolve into social centerswhere individuals of like tastes can board together,divorced from the control of the university?Or does the future of the Greek system demandmembership in the university family?As members of the family the chapters enjoya number of advantages. At Oregon both thefraternities and the sororities have available tothem a full-time staff member in the Office ofStudent Services to co-ordinate their activitiesand serve as a liaison between the system andthe administration. They have available tothem the Business Office computers which belchout, each term, the names and addresses of prospectivepledges. They may schedule universitybuildings for meetings and other activities.The alternative, to exist off campus as a socialclub, is not too inviting. The feeling is thatsuch "boarding houses" would hold little appealfor the men presently living in the fraternitiesand the girls in sororities. The benefits ofmembership in the family are significant, and itis the value of these ties that cause the chaptersto submit to the edicts of the university onthose occasions when the battle lines are drawn.And there have been some battles.The Greek bloc lost a key skirmish in theearly '50s when the administration decided thatall freshman students would live in the dorms.This was a double blow to the fraternities andsororities.It is as a pledge that the novice Greek receiveshis indoctrination into the mystic order.The chains of fealty are forged through intimateassociation with the membership as well asweekly training classes in the history and traditionsof the tong. With the freshmen troopingin once a week to attend the training class withoutthe daily experience of actually living inthe house the whole spirit of the pledging periodwas altered. Friendships were made in thedorms and not necessarily with pledges fromthe same house. This broadening of the base ofacquaintanceship for the individual had the effect,ultimately, of weakening the sense ofgroup loyalty within the particular house.Even more devastating was the financial impactof the new ruling. There was suddenly asurfeit of empty beds with the consequent lossof house bills paid for each one. This hurt.Chapters that were already tottering on thecrumbling edge of insolvency found themselveshanging over the rim by their fingernails alone.With the freshmen gone, the character of thechapters also changed. In a class conscious societythe lowest class fills an important function.They are the doers of menial tasks. They sweep,they scrub, they see to the comfort of the higherclasses. They are the least favored among thechosen. Happiness for a sophomore was knowingthat the freshmen were close by to accepttheir condescension. The freshmen served, also,as the spirited comic relief for the chapter. Massrebellions of this peasant class were frequent,usually pursued in good humor, and all in allthey kept the house jumping. Older membersviewed the freshmen the way fond parents viewthe mischievous but loved child.When the freshman left the houses a sparkwent out of the old order.The big word in the early '60s was "image."The fraternities at Oregon were caught up inthis national obsession for showing the properface, and in an effort to achieve instant respectabilitythey decided (with the fervent blessingof the administration) to install housemothersin as many houses as possible. Housemothers.The very name strikes a chill to the heart. Ingrasping for a facade of niceness the Greek menhad forfeited the one small island of time theywould ever know free from the soft dominationof women. Having moved from the pervasiveinfluence of their home-"Moms" they had giventhemselves over to the house-"Moms" until suchtime as she would deliver them, uplifted and sociallypolished, into the anxious hands of theirwife—"Moms." Other than creating one morefinancial strain on an already painfully overburdenedbudget, the move to the Moms had littleeffect on the plight of the houses, and by lastyear only one fraternity had a resident Momstill in service.The '60s was the decade of the individual.Everyone was admonished to do his own thing"Old Frank Frat isnot the lustyfellow he once was,but it is still abit earlyfor the shovels. Eyelidflutters canbe detected."


232 THE SCROLL of <strong>Phi</strong> <strong>Delta</strong> <strong>Theta</strong> for MARCH, 1970while telling it like it is. What used to be calledrudeness was now called honesty, and any authoritywas a potentially corruptive evil. Whilegrooving your own groove was consideredgroovy, being a functioning cog meshed into agroup existence was definitely a bummer. Andso the Greeks came to represent everything theaware student of this new era seemed to findmost objectionable about society. Structured organization.Demands of loyalty for ancient andoutdated canons. A submersion of individualdesires for the realization of group success andachievement.For years the Greeks had weathered the assaultsof the press and the public and hadhardly flinched. The preachings of outraged collegeadministrators fell on ears calloused fromlistening. Even the impassioned admonitions oftheir own alumni advisersfrequently encounterednothing more thanthe hallowed old irreverenthand signal. Allof this adult thunderthey could tune out.But the one attack theycould not cope with wasthe indifference and rejectionof their ownpeers.The young people goingthrough rush thisfall will not be in aweof the fraternities andsororities as institutions.They are in a buyer'smarket, and with a definitelack of naivet^they will be saying, "I'llthink it over and letyou know."In the sororities the traditionally strong chapterscontinue to dominate the system. It is theless prestigious chapters, the ones that were alwaysnot quite first-rate, that are experiencingthe biggest problems. In the fraternities the reverse,with two or three exceptions, seems to betrue. The vitality and full memberships arefound in new fraternities, and in what used tobe considered the lesser chapters while some ofthe once powerful and famous international fraternitieshave fallen on desperate times.Miss Karen Anderson, a junior this year inthe Chi Omega sorority, answered some questionsrecently about sororities. Karen (or Kare-pronounced Carry-as she likes to be called)is noticeably attractive, intelligent, and pleasinglyarticulate. In other words, she obviouslydid not seek out a sorority to prop up a frailpersonality. Kare Anderson likes living with acrowd of girls her own age and feels that thespirit of sisterhood does actually exist.She enjoys sharing the college experiencewith her sisters, eating with them and sharingin the sense of mutual responsibility for eachother. Some girls, Kare admits, resent this constantcloseness and its resultant lessening of privacy.She herself partially solves this problemby putting a red flag on her door when shewishes to be alone. It doesn't always work butKare doesn't mind. She puts up with the clothesborrowers, the noise, and gossip, an insidiousadaptation of house habits, all of the petty annoyancesbecause she feels that the things sheenjoys about the sorority far outweigh those shedoesn't.Kare Anderson is wellaware of the danger oflooking on the sororityas a snug ivory tower towhich she can retreatfrom the problems ofthe campus and thesociety in general. Shefeels she must always belooking out beyond thesorority to other interestsand other friends tokeep these cozy wallsfrom enclosing her.She waited until thespring term of her freshmanyear to rush so thatshe could make an intelligentevaluation otthe group with whichshe would affiliate herself.She does not regrether decision and would not hesitate to repeat it.Kare has a friend who joined a fraternitywith less satisfactory results. Like Kare he wasnot a dependent personality but was, rather, ayoung man with leadership qualities. Heemerged, in fact, as one of his class leaders. Ofthe 15 men who shared membership with himin the junior men's honorary, Druids, a grouppreponderantly Greek in affiliation, all but twohad moved out of their chapter houses by theend of their junior year. He still maintainsclose and active friendships with many membersof his fraternity. There were certain facts of livingin the fraternity house which he found hecould not adjust to. The noise. The drinking.The shallowness of most of the talk. He likes theprivacy of his own apartment and the opportunityit gives him to create his own environment.


THE SCROLL of <strong>Phi</strong> <strong>Delta</strong> <strong>Theta</strong> for MARCH, 1970 233Fraternities at Oregon today are like the littlegirl in the nursery rhyme; when they aregood they are very, very good, but when theyare bad they are horrid. <strong>Theta</strong> Chi has had along tradition of being good. They have foryears attracted the young men who turn out tobe the campus leaders and they have alwaysmaintained top grades. At the same time theirsocial calendar has not suffered. <strong>Theta</strong> Chi anda few others are examples of what Oregon's fraternitiesmust aim for if they are to survive.Tke physical condition of the <strong>Theta</strong> Chi houseis certainly no better and probably no worsethan most of the others (they all look as if GeneralPatton had used their interiors to practicehis tank drills before attacking Germany) butthe intellectual atmosphere of the house makesthe difference.The mechanics of fraternity work by the creationof an aura of identification. Members of aparticular chapter will take varying degrees ofpride and satisfaction in the image their ownchapter projects, and when a member movesout it is usually because he cannot adapt to thelife style of that particular group. Some projectathletic prowess, some scholarship, some campusleadership, and some project a reputation forbeing little other than bad actors. It is this lastclassification that is finding the rough goingtoday.The Interfratemity Council, which sometimesspeaks for all of the fraternities at Oregon, hasan ambitious program mapped out for the comingschool year. They will sponsor visitations byfraternity men to high schools to discuss theUniversity of Oregon. They plan to set up leadershipclinics on the campus to which they willinvite distinguished Greek alumni, and theywill pursue a variety of community service projectsincluding the March of Dimes and UnitedAppeal.If anything about the Greek system is certainit is that the fraternities and sororities of the1970s will be a different breed of cats from thecrowd of the '40s and '50s and even the '60s.The big question is, will they still be around inthe '70s? The answer will have to come from theffeshmen students each year. The university administrationcan't save the Greeks and thealumni certainly can't. If, in the next two orthree years, the Greeks don't make a strong casefor their survival to their fellow students thenthere are going to be a lot of 30- and 40-bedroom houses depressing the real estate marketof Eugene, Ore.•Sketch on p. 229 reprinted from March, 1<strong>94</strong>9 issue of CollegeManasement magazine with publisher's permission. © 1969 byCCM Professional "Magazine, Inc.

A Progressive Correctional System.... . . The Washington State StyleBy B. J. Rhay (Whitman '47)Supt., Washington State Penitentiary~M50-"OK-- Ue'll reCer to H «s 9» f««.JoAA[234]


THE SCROLL of <strong>Phi</strong> <strong>Delta</strong> <strong>Theta</strong> for MARCH, 1970 235There is increasing concern on both the federal andstate level concerning America's prisons. Therehave been numerous investigations on this subject bythe U.S. Senate Judiciary Committee. Problemsrange from outright brutality to the socio-economicdifficulties of recidivism and rehabilitation. Oneof the country's most progressive penal systems isrun by Washington State and B. J. Rhay(Whitman '47). Here, in an article prepared specificallyfor THE SCROIX, he tells about his program.I'M a prison superintendent.My duties range from the awesome to thepleasant . . . from carrying out an execution toshaking the hand of a man returning to theoutside world. I'm charged by law with the careand custody of men and women who have beensentenced to prison for some crime against thesociety in which they live. ».I'm charged with supervision of the society inwhich these men and women will spend thenext months, years or perhaps the rest of theirlives. This society must be geared to rehabilitateso that these men and women can successfullymake the transition back to the world outsidethe prison walls. Part of my job is to lessenthe spectre of those walls from both the insideand the outside.Since I became superintendent, tremendouschanges have occurred in the field of corrections.Our institution, fortunately, has been apart of the progressive movement which haswidened the scope of our efforts and improvedthe condition of those committed to our care.Our physical plant, until about 15 years ago,was the very model of a 19th Century prison.Somber walls broken only by gun towers enclosedgrim brick buildings dating back to 1886.A crenelated administration building, designedto look like a gothic castle, set the tone for theprograms behind the wall.The plant was inadequate to meet the needsof rehabilitation and the general situation wascharacterized by idleness on the part of inmatesand considerable apathy among the staff. A crisiscame in the summer of 1955 when two seriousriots took place, resulting in great physicaldamage to the plant.Costly as these riots were in material goods,they brought about many of the changes thatenable us to justifiably place on the WashingtonState Penitentiary among the leaders inpresent day corrections.Involving The PublicRecently, I was asked to write a guest editorialfor our local newspaper. I called it, "IronCurtain Disolved." Shortly after the summerriots of 1955, the paper printed an editorial entitled,"The Iron Curtain On The Hill." Therewas considerable justification, at that time, forthis charge. Today, in every way possible, we attemptto keep lines of communication open betweenthe institution and the community.We feel the "Iron Curtain" has been rolledback and is now a relic of the past. Examples ofcooperation between the institution and thecommunity are many and varied, and citing severalwill explain how mutually beneficial theycan be.Washington State has a work and training releaselaw which is permissive legislation allowingresidents of the penitentiary to leave the institutionfor work or training in the community.For two years a select group of our residentshave left the institution each day andhave filled positions in the labor force of WallaWalla or have attended various schools wherethey have acquired vocational skills. Our recordthis far has been one of outstanding success,culminating in the graduation of 26 residentslast June. These men received coveted AssociateDegrees.Our recreation progfram serves as anothergoodwill messenger to the community as ourmusical groups entertain at the local Veterans'Administration Hospital and trained umpiresare suppled to handle assignments in the JuniorBaseball Leagues.


236 THE SCROLL of <strong>Phi</strong> <strong>Delta</strong> <strong>Theta</strong> for MARCH, 1970One of our most recent, and we think, mostsuccessful statewide service is being given byour inmate speaking team. This group of menand women has traveled throughout the statespeaking to junior and senior high school students.The basic message? Simply, crime does notpay. The Walla Walla Rotary Club is now thegroup's sponsor.We opened our gates to become involved inthe community, and welcomed community involvementin our treatment effort. The resultingbridge from the community to the institutionis being well-used.Service organizations chartered branches atthe institution and held exchange meetings. Individualswith expertise in wide-ranging fieldsvolunteer their services in our Pre-Release Program.A great deal of support is given our religiousprogram through the individual andgroup efforts of the Walla Walla Ministerial Association.The list of such cooperative effort is muchlonger, but these examples reveal how open ourinstitution is to public scrutiny. Continued andwidespread public interest in our correctionalefforts is the surest guarantee that our programwill remain progressive and up-to-date.The 1955 riots caused many people throughoutthe state to ask probing questions about ourphysical plant, or staff and our programs. Thenet results of these questions was the developmentof a new approach in the treatment of theadult offender. It has been a challenging andrewarding experience for me to have been involvedin these new developments. Most rewardinghas been the knowledge that our innovationshave been strongly supported by the citizensand the Legislature.Physical Plant ChangedIn 1955, half of our cell blocks dated back tothe turn of the century or earlier and were dismal,bucket-type iron cages. There was no adequatemaximum security wing to safeguard theinstitution from that small percentage of incorrigibleinmates, and hospital, school, work anddining facilities vjere primitive.Today, the situation is dramatically improved.<strong>No</strong> longer are men warehoused in ancientbucket-type cells. A modern, maximum securitywing permits segregation of overtly antisocialtypes from the main stream of institutionallife until attitudinal changes take place.A modern kitchen and dining area is a moralbuildertoday, rather than a source of troubleas in former times. The old gas gun cage in thedining area is no longer manned and the onceever-present 37 mm gas gun is gone.Staff Improvement and TrainingMy first experience in prison work convincedme of the great need for staff development anda viable program of in-service training. It wasJanuary, 1<strong>94</strong>6, and I had just been releasedfrom the Air Corps. I had planned to re-enroll atWhitman College for my final year, but sincethe semester did not begin until March, Ilooked for part-time work.My former coach and athletic director, R. V."Nig" Borleske, (Whitman '10), at that timemayor of Walla Walla, told me the penitentiarywas hiring guards, so I drove out to apply. Iwas astounded to find that within five minutesof my arrival I had been hired and told to reportfor the night shift.That evening I was taken up to a tower,given a shotgun and told to "keep them fromcoming over the wall." There was no screaming,no briefing; absolutely no in-service training. Afew days later I was transferred to a cell blockand given a double fistfiil of keys. With thehelp of a knowledgeable inmate, I managed tomaster the intricacies of this assignment. I alsoresolved, that should I ever have control of suchthings, hiring techniques would be improvedand a well-structured orientation and programtraining initiated.


THE SCROLL of <strong>Phi</strong> <strong>Delta</strong> <strong>Theta</strong> for MARCH, 1970 237Today, Washington State has a civil servicesystem covering all positions in our correctionalinstitutions. Candidates for positions are carefullyscreened and, when hired, are given acomplete orientation of the operations, policiesand procedures of the institution.Continuing in-service training for correctionalstaff and treatment personnel insuresstaff development. A culmination of staff improvementcame in 1968 when a two-year degreeprogram in corrections was developed incooperation with the Walla Walla CommunityCollege. Presently, over 30 officers and matronsare working toward their Associate in Arts Degree.As the caliber and role of the correctional officerwas improved, equal attention was given todeveloping a staff of professional treatment people.Again, the impact of favorable public opinionmade this possible.Professionally qualified teachers in the academicand vocational areas are now a part ofthe staff. A medical staff of physicians, a dentistand a psychiatrist is available to ensure that thephysical and mental problems of residents canbe approached humanely and scientifically.A staff of counselors trained in the behavioralsciences is available to work with individualslAM ALL FDR PROG-RESS, BUTARE COMJU&flLVlSnS TU\SIMPORTAMT ?The above cartoon, and the others accompanying this story,were drawn by N. hfunt, an Inmate in the Washington StatePenitentiary.and groups. With trained eyes they examinetheir case loads and give valued opinions as toindividual attitudinal change and the readinessof the inmate for program change and eventualrelease to society.The importance of a dedicated, qualified staffto the productivity of the institution is paramount.Without such a staff new programs arenon-existent and old ones become moribund.Importance of Structured ProgramsBasically, there are two types of residents inthe penitentiary. There is always a small group,extremely anti-social, resistant to authority andto all attempts to change, but until this happensthe walls, the locks and the bars are theanswer to their problems.Fortunately, the majority of our charges cometo us as a result of personality problems, vocationallacks, environmental conditioning, educationalhandicaps or economic stresses. They aremainly seeking help. They do not like prisonlife, and are ready to accept advice and help toprevent further incarceration.Our many treatment programs are designedto strengthen the individual as a person so thathis self-image is tolerable and his role in societybecomes constructive rather than destructive.For some men the completion of a schoolprogram is the answer. For another man correctivesurgery may restore the self-confidenceneeded for success. Whatever the need—religion,orientation, on-the-job training, work release, orencouragement through individual counseling—the individual is given the opportunity to findhis own way. The democratic approach neednot stop at the prison gate.The FutureBut, we are far from complacent with ourpresent situation. <strong>No</strong>r are we satisfied that nofurther changes are necessary. An integral partof our philosophy of corrections involves a constantsearch for new ideas, methods and programsto help a greater number of our residentsin finding satisfying life goals.In cooperation with our central office planningand research departments, we are seekingnew ways to utilize our existing facilities. Likewise,we are evaluating present programs as totheir capacity for performing their individualmission.The readiness to accept change and to meetnew challenges seems to us to be the very measureof our ability to continue performing aworthwhile societal function. As long as an informedpublic is behind us, the corrections processwill be successful.•

"That's where there is a big need," he says."So many of these people are pushed aside, neglectedand forgotten. They're the men and womenwho built this state and nobody should forget it,and somebody should do something about it."One of his most recent attempts to "do somethingabout it" is a project to get the major downtownstores to set aside room for a gatheringplace and recreation center for theelderly.Other projects have included movie discountsfor the elderly, special tax benefits—especiallyon home taxes—and efforts to pass a bill toallow the state to receive federal funds underthe Older Americatu Act. During the last legislaturehe had 12 bills in the hoppers relating to theelderly.He also helped achieve the S2 monthly rate onbus fares for the elderly and did much to assureconsiderate treatment of the elderly by busdrivers."I'm still a fighter," he says. "I'm not asfast on my feet as I used to be, but the oldthinking cap is still there."•

244 THE SCROLL of <strong>Phi</strong> <strong>Delta</strong> <strong>Theta</strong> for MARCH, 1970Decathlon World Record HolderToomey 1st <strong>Phi</strong> To Win Sullivan AwardBill Toomey (Colorado '61), whose name hadbeen omitted from the original list of candidates,has become the first <strong>Phi</strong> to win the annual James E.Sullivan Memorial Award as the nation's outstandingamateur athlete.As reported by the New York Times, the 31-yearoldToomey, an instructor in English compositionand literature at Santa Barbara (Calif.) City College,said, "The hope of winning the 1969 Sullivan Awardwas one of the things that kept me in competitionafter the 1968 Olympics. I value it especially becausethis award, more than any other, represents my attitudetoward sports."The award, instituted in 1930 by the AmateurAthletic Union in memory of its founder, is bestowedannually on "the amateur athlete who, byperformance, example and good influence, did themost to advance the cause of good sportsmanshipduring the year."Toomey, whose name had to be added to the listafter the original mailing had not included him,easily topped swimmer Mike Burton, who finishedsecond in the voting, and All-America fullback SteveOwen of Oklahoma, the Heisman Trophy winner.The award is just the latest in a series of honorsfor the handsome, 6-foot-l, 195 lb. Olympic decathlonchamp (see SCROLL, 1-69-130).The national decathlon champion for five straightyears, Toomey capped a 1969 season that had seenhim top 8,000 points in six of 11 decathlon competitionsby setting a world record of 8,417 pts. Dec. 11,1969, shattering the two-year-old mark of 8,319 setby Kurt Bendlin of West Germany.A week after setting the world record Toomeymarried Mary Rand of England, the 1964 Olympiclong-jump champ.The Helms Board named him Southern CaliforniaAthlete of the Year and the Associated Press namedhim California Athlete of the Year. He won the latterhonor over such other athletes as Tom Seaver,Daryle Lamonica, Roman Gabriel, Jerry West, WillieMcCovey, Rod Laver and Lance Alworth.The Helms Athletic Foundation awarded him oneof its six world trophies as the outstanding athleteon the <strong>No</strong>rth American continent for 1969. TheFrench magazine Athletic named him the world'stop athlete for 1969."People keep retiring me prematurely," he saidafter winning the Sullivan Award. "The time willcome when I'll retire myself, but it hasn't arrivedquite yet. I enjoy competition. I improved my bestmarks in seven of the 10 events last year and, by continuingto compete as a doddering old-timer of 31,maybe I can convince some of our young people thatthey shouldn't be sports dropouts at 21 or so.''The question of how long he will continue tocompete is an intriguing one. He won the first indoorpentathlon at the All-America Games in SanFrancisco Jan. 4. And, he has expressed envy thatthe decathlon will be a special feature before 60,000spectators in the 1972 Munich Olympics. Maybe hewill be on hand to defend his title.As Arthur Daley reported in his Sports of theTimes column in the New Ycrrk Times, perhapsToomey said it all in a conversation printed in partin a bulletin of the U.S. Olympic Committee:"Maybe if I had put the same efliort into being afootball or baseball player, I would have done aswell as some of the pros who make the big salaries.But I did what I wanted to do. It gave me a senseof accomplishment;"Some guys win 31 games or throw touchdownpasses and laugh all the way to the bank. Other guysget a little round medal. To me, what's important iswhat the little round medal stands for. It seems tome we've lost the concept of doing something simplybecause it's worth-while in itself. We've become soeconomically oriented that we've lost sight of the realvalues in life."Could there possibly be a more deserving winnerof the Sullivan Award?•Sullivan vaulter: The strain shows on BillToomey's face as he nears the bar in one ofthe 10 decathlon events, the pole vault.Santa Barbara News photo

Letters To The EditorTHE SCROLI. encourages itsreaders to contribute theirthoughts and ideas concerningsubjects in the magazine or anysubject they think ought to beaired in THE SCROLL via "Lettersto the Editor." We only askthat the letters be kept to a 200-word minimum.MEMBERSHIP AND DISCIPLINEI have been reading THE SCROLLfor 70 years and may I express mypraise for the new SCROLL. "On whatmeat did this our Ceasar feed thathe has grown so great?"The article on "Disestablish or Disaffiliate"is thought provoking but Ilike to consider that now collegeshave certain control over all organizedgroups including literary societies,Y.M.C.A., etc. But fraternities areunder a much greater supervision bystudent councils, IFCs and fraternityofficers.I attended the General Conventionin 1898 at Columbus, Ohio, and metFather Morrison. One of the most debatedsubjects at that Conventionwas admission of Japanese studentsto the Fraternity. At that time Japanwas shedding its old policy of exclusionand they sent hundreds of theirbest young to American colleges.The Japanese students were polite,well-dressed and affable. They joinedfraternities as part of their education.At the Convention, delegatesfrom Washington and Colorado presentedmany arguments against admissionof the Japanese. Among thesewere that secret societies were bannedin Japan and that it was doubtful wecould ever form an alumni club inTokyo.The first draft of exclusion of Japanesefrom membership was worded,"of American ancestry," but this wasruled out because it would excludeCanadians. A second draft used theword "Aryan." This wording ex-'eluded the Japanese, but it was notwell chosen as it was intended to banfrom membership only citizens of anynation whose laws would prohibitmembership.In regard to voting for membership,I think a change should bemade in voting on a new memberwho has one blackball. The reasonfor a single blackball may be worthyof consideration due to knowledgedenied to others or it may be unworthypique for an unworthy reasonand would prevent the election of ^good member to the chapter.In such cases, I believe the presidentof the chapter and two othersshould hear in confidence the reasonfor this adverse vote. The presidentwould then rule whether the votestands or if it should fall because itwas of a petty nature and that themember who so voted should beplaced in suspension for a time. Thiswould allow a second vote.W. E. StokesMiami of Ohio 1899[252]ENJOYS LETTERS SECTIONThe "Letter to the Editor" sectionof THE SCROLL is a pleasurable additionto our already outstandingpublication.

THE SCROLL of <strong>Phi</strong> <strong>Delta</strong> <strong>Theta</strong> for MARCH, 1970 253receive it because it carried an articleon a new chapter installed at IndianaState University, which is dear to myheart, but it also carried at leastthree other articles which I found tobe extraordinarily interesting. Theywere about brother Dick Maxwell, thearticle by Dr. John Millett and thearticle by Jenkin Lloyd Jones. Iwould only wish that these articlescould be read (and understood) bythe most "mistreated" minority everto exist.Thank you again for such a greatFraternity magazine.J. Terry FreyFranklin-Indiana State '67ENCOURAGE MINORITYMEMBERSHIPYour <strong>No</strong>vember issue of THE SCROLLwas, I think, the best that I haveever read. I must admit, however,that in my opinion <strong>Phi</strong> <strong>Delta</strong> <strong>Theta</strong>chapters should attempt to obtainmore minority group members.When an organization with the influenceof <strong>Phi</strong> <strong>Delta</strong> <strong>Theta</strong> is overselective,the result is discrimination.This does not imply that any minoritymember should be selected at random,but a concentrated effort should besupported by <strong>Phi</strong> Delt Headquartersto pledge students in minority groupswith good character qualifications.Tomlin B.

Needless to say, 1969 was a "Ole"of a year for <strong>Phi</strong> astronaut Neil Aimstrong(Purdue '55), the first man onthe moon. He's pictured at the far leftof this bullfight poster produced forhis visit to Spain during his post-flighttrip around the world (See SCROLL,11.69-83).In December Armstrong, whom theAssociated Press termed "the shy youthwho preferred books to football andwho grew up to be the first man onthe moon," was named the AP's topnewsmaker of 1969, the first <strong>Phi</strong> everto achieve such an honor.The whole saga of Apollo 11, whichreached its highpoint at 10:56.20(EDT), Sunday, JtUy 20, 1969, whenArmstrong put man's first footprint onthe moon, was termed the AP's topnews story of 1969.President Nixon, in December,named Armstrong chairman of thePeace Corps Advisory Council. The39-year-old Armstrong, who will remainwith the space program, thusfills a post occupied by former VicePresident Hiunphiey during the JohnsonAdministration.In January Armstrong visited hisalma mater where he chatted with Dr.Fred Hovde (Minnesota '29), PurdueUniversity president, and visited withbrother <strong>Phi</strong>s at the Purdue chapterhouse for about an hour where hemade it clear he enjoyed reminiscingabout his days at Purdue more thantelUng about his trip to the moon. Helived in the house during liis undergraduatedays at Purdue.He also made it clear during histrip to Purdue that he wants to stay inthe space program, hopes to returnto the moon and has no desire to seekpubUc ofBce.•Compix Photo

The Unanimous Ballot.....Pros and ConsTHE'SHADOW of the ballot boxwill be hanging over <strong>Phi</strong> <strong>Delta</strong><strong>Theta</strong>'s 58th Biennial Convention inWashington, D.C, Aug, 26^29.The shadow will be there becauseone of the most hotly debated itemsat the convention is expected to beSection 29 of <strong>Phi</strong> <strong>Delta</strong> <strong>Theta</strong>'sConstitution, which reads: "<strong>No</strong>person may be pledged to thisFraternity without the unanimousconsent of aU active members in thechapter in which he may be proposedfor membership, such vote havingbeen taken by secret ballot."In other words, the blackball, theimanimous ballot, the one-dingsystem, balling or whatever youwant to call it.At the 1968 Convention, inAsheville, N.C, there was a greatdeal of debate about Sec. 29. A rollcall vote of 127-68 defeated anychanges at that time (see SCROLL,11-68-69).However, over the past two yearsthere has been increasing discussionand pressures brought to bear uponthe Fraternity as a whole and onindividual chapters to bring about achange in Sec. 29. These pressurescome both from within and withoutthe Fraternity.presented. It is hoped this will serveThe Fraternity has lost at least to get some of the preliminaryone chapter because of thediscussion on the topic out of theunanimous ballot (Cornell-see view way before the convention.this story, and back cover) and is The views expressed range fromthreatened on other campuses. no change at aU to complete selfTHE SCROLL asked several alimmi determination. <strong>No</strong> attempts haveand undergraduates to express their been made to present the opinionsviews on this question. On the in any particular order.following pages their viewpoints are There is also no attempt to[266]


present exactly the same number ofchange or retain views, since severalof the opinions could not be strictlycategorized. That is, some were forno change, but allow a waiver.Others were for no change, but forthe good of the Fraternity, would goalong with some sort of acompromise, and so on.What follows is a sampling ofviews on the subject of theunanimous ballot by bothundergraduates and alunmi.THE SCROLL hopes you find itinformative and interesting.It takes two successive conventionsto change <strong>Phi</strong> <strong>Delta</strong> <strong>Theta</strong>'sConstitution. Therefore, any changewhich might be approved at the 1970Convention would have to be ratifiedby the 1972 Convention before itwould take effect.


268 THE SCROLL of <strong>Phi</strong> <strong>Delta</strong> <strong>Theta</strong> for MAY, 1970Let Chapters Vote Alone At ConventionBy Edward B. White Jr. (Florida '53), formerchapter advisor, Virginia.To me, the first question is whether we are going toretain the unanimous ballot... or whether we are goingto retain the unanimous ballot for the time being. Isthe attack on Section 29 a signal for a complete, all-outbattle against any further change in our selectionprocedures? Is it our final, "Horatio at the bridge"defense against foes? Or was the Colgate chapter merelya down-payment on delay?I don't know. I do know our record regarding Section28 (membership selection-"the clause"), and it is aclassic example of the proverb that "Procrastination isthe art of keeping up with yesterday." For 20 years, wefought biennial battles over the status quo—whatever ithappened to be at the time. But we fought the battleswith ourselves, through White Papers and "The LoyalOpposition" and endless exercises in semantics. And after20 years of repeated challenges—and repeated changes—we found ourselves right back where we were before 1912:the determination of membership requirements wasplaced in the hands of the chapters. We had certainlyperfected the art of keeping up with yesterday.And now we're about to embark upon another round otmassive (if momentary) resistance. But before we getbogged down in a numbers game between the relativemerits of unanimous ballots, three-fourths votes orsimple majorities, let's face one fact: in the finalanalysis, the real question is whether or not we arewilling to entrust to our local chapters the right todetermine not only whom they will select for membership,but how they will be chosen.<strong>No</strong> one is in a better position to choose, or reject, theresponsibilities of such local autonomy than theundergraduate chapters themselves. Following a fulldiscussion by all parties, why not let the active chaptersalone vote on this question at the 1970 Convention? Whynot let general officers and alumni club delegatesabstain on this particular item and let the undergraduatesdecide for themselves? They're the ones who really haveto live with the decision, and they might just find abetter way to cope with tomorrow than we've been able todo with yesterday.•<strong>No</strong> Reason To Consider Any ChangesBy Owen M. Roberts Jr. (Georgia '37),chapter advisor, Georgia.I see no reason to even consider any changes.Those who desire a change have the burden ofpresenting logical and worthwhile arguments. I have yetto hear the only logical argument possible, i.e. "Howwould a change in the unanimous consent statute helpand improve <strong>Phi</strong> <strong>Delta</strong> <strong>Theta</strong>?". Granting a waiver andlocal autonomy to a chapter in jeopardy is only for thepurpose of saving a chapter. I gave up trying to save achapter on any campus where the cards are stackedagainst us. In 1962, I went against a lifelong convictionand voted to allow a waiver regarding the mutuallyacceptable clause only to save Wisconsin Alpha. Itsolved nothing in that instance.Any other argument for change in unanimous consentwould have to stipulate a definite percentage. <strong>No</strong> twochapters agree on what the percentage should be,probably because they don't know what percentage isacceptable to their college administration that particularmonth.I have suffered through 1,000 hours of cut sessions andlistened to 8,000 men being considered for membership. Ihave seen the box passed on approximately 1,000 men,have seen 786 pass unanimously and 488 ot thosepledged. Only three ot the 488 were depledged by thechapter and about 10 depledged at their own request.<strong>No</strong>t a single boy who passed unanimously was not <strong>Phi</strong>material and the type person I wouldn't be happy tohave as a Fraternity brother, including many who did notpledge <strong>Phi</strong> <strong>Delta</strong> <strong>Theta</strong>. I have been disappointed inthe way some turned out, but it was not because of anyweakness in the one ball system, and the hundreds offine upright gentlemen and loyal <strong>Phi</strong>s who did developwas largely due to the unanimous consent rule.I also cannot recall where one ball actually kept aman out. Such a situation is usually resolved one way orthe other.I have heard we must fight to stay on some campuses.I believe in fighting, but some campuses aren't worth it.If they (administrators, trustees, etc.) are out to get thestrong and good chapters, they are going to get them nomatter how many rule changes are made. The GeneralCouncil's "Policy on Unfriendly Campuses" (see SCROLL,inside front cover, 1-70) is the first and great step towarda fight. Even sub rosa worked at one time, it may bethat "sans sanction" will work next time.Any relentment will be another surrender. We havetoo many other problems to waste time on changes inthe unanimous consent rule.•Chapters Should Have CompleteFreedomBy J. Dinnen Cleary (Idaho '64), former 4> A 0field secretary, 1965-66.The Fraternity should not control membershipselection by individual chapters. Chapters should havecomplete freedom to choose whom they wish to pledgeand initiate and how they wish to do it. The onlyrequirement is an obvious one, to keep GeneralHeadquarters informed of membership rolls.Anything short of such a policy,' i.e. a 50%, 75%, etc.policy, would simply be an extension of the presentsystem. A single standard should not be applied togroups each unique as to tastes, mores, ideas forgoverning themselves, relationship with the college oruniversity, and so on. More importantly, it is adecision which primarily affects those with whom thepotential member will come in contact. Any outsiderestrictions could serve to deprive the group ot theautonomy it needs to enable each member to derivemaximum benefit from the close associations that willarise as a result of this selection process.The General Fraternity and the alumni should nothave any control over whom the chapters select, nomatter how indirect the effect that an establishedballoting procedure may have on the selection process. Ahands-off policy toward membership selection by theFraternity might serve to encourage the sense otindividuality in the chapters that is necessary iffraternities are to continue as a part ot the college scene.Two additional points. First, I would likewise have nopolicy involving expulsion. Control over membership bythe chapters includes the power to expell. The abuseof such a power, as well as the possibility that somechapters might racially discriminate, would be a matterstrictly between the chapter and the college oruniversity where it is located.My other point is the irony that the approval oi sucha proposal depends on the Fraternity generally andprimarily on alumni. When the first debate about themembership selection process arose, it was largely alumnicontinued on p. 270


'


continued from p. 268who delayed the removal of the infainous clause overthe objections of most of the students, those most directjyaffected by not only the selection process but also byactions of some colleges and universities which closeddown their chapters. The attitude of many seemed tofavor holding out against change until the survival ofthe Fraternity was in jeopardy. I hope this time the issuewill be decided on the merits and not again be forestalleduntil pressure of extinction forces change.•A Local Autonomy CompromiseBy John S. Zaplatynsky (Manitoba '67), former•S-AS field secretary, 1968-70.The unanimous vote is an integral and necessary facetof membership selection. Although not always usedproperly, and sometimes resulting in internal strife, thismethod comes true in the final analysis. The actualvoting is long and arduous, but every member realizesthe importance of his participation in the decisionmakingprocess of the chapter. If a chapter member isnot involved in this, the most fundamental aspect ofthe chapter, what will his participation in other chapteractivities be?As a field secretary, I was amazed at the many chaptersthat do not vote in a secret or unanimous mannerin accordance with the Constitution and General Statutes.This is not because of disagreement with the rule butbecause of lack of time to adhere to the rule. It is almostimpossible to use a unanimous vote procedure whenvoting on 500 rushees in three days. Thus, most


<strong>Phi</strong> <strong>Delta</strong> <strong>Theta</strong>, and hope that changes would comeonly where severe pressure is being exerted lipon thelocal chapter or where the undergraduates themselvesare unalterably opposed to the present system.•Unanimous Vote Should Be AbolishedBy Sandy Harlow, president,MIT.What is the purpose of the unanimous vote and howwell has that purpose been achieved? The most commonjustification is that it signifies the acceptance of a rusheeby every nian in the chapter. The idea is that unanimousacclaim in pledging will prevent problems later inFraternity life.How is the unanimous vote attained? During rush it'sdifficult for every brother to even shake the hand of everyrushee. How long does it take to begin to know a manwell enough to seriously evaluate his potential forcontributions to the Fraternity and to other potentialfor contributions to the Fraternity and to othercommunities in which he may live? It is a good deallonger than a rush week.At MIT we experimented with a proxy system ot votingduring the last rush week. Every man in the chapter toldthe rush chairman with whom he would trust his vote.Whenever a brother felt he had spent enough time witha rushee to be able to yote wisely, the rush chairmanwould also put a yes vote under the names of allbrothers who had given their proxies to that brother.This took a lot of the rush out of rush week. Rusheestoo were impressed with the depth that they found in the<strong>Phi</strong>s they met. Brothers had more time to spend probingindividual rushees, and could thus speak knowledgablywhen the rushees were discussed in rush week chaptermeetings.What about brothers who are strongly opposed to aparticular rushee? Should they have the right to keepany man out ot the chapter? There are too manyindividual personality quirks to let just one man'simpression deprive the chapter ot another pledge. If abad impression is confirmed by several others, however,it does indicate that chapter harmony may suffer if theman is pledged.When the long perspective is taken, it is not reallywhom you pledge but what you do to help them developinto productive men that counts. What I look for in rushweek is a man that is anxious to learn. 1 am willing tolet the other three-quarters or so of the house offer abid to a man I haven't met because I trust theirjudgment.Therefore, I feel the unanimous vote rule should beabolished.undergraduates do not understand or appreciate theunanimous vote.I favour the unanimous vote and believe it is theduty of all members to educate themselves and others asto the value of the unanimous vote and its proper usein the undergraduate chapters.When cpnsitlering the Fraternity as a whole, however,a more pragmatic viewpoint is needed. Chapters injeopardy because of this voting procedure must be givenassistance in the true spirit of Fraternity. They must begiven assistance on the use and value ot the unanimousvote and also be given the opportunity to continue toexist as chapters. The unanimous vote is beneficial tochapters only as long as they continue to exist. I would,therefore, compromise and agree to a system of localautonomy on the voting requirements for membership in100% For A Social FraternityBy George E. Wilkins (Vanderbilt '54), chapteradvisor, Vanderbilt.Either a vote ot 50% plus one, showing a majorityapproval, or a vote of 100%, showing unanimous approval,would be a valid system for any group to use. .\nypercentage between these two is merely an arbitraryfigure that sounded good to someone setting the rulesand proves nothing.A majority vote is too liberal a standard to set fora social fraternity. To be accepted by just a majoritycheapens the value of the membership. To be acceptedby 100% of a group states that all are interested inhaving you join them as a brother—not part, but all.The question of racial discrimination should not enterthe picture since <strong>Phi</strong> <strong>Delta</strong> <strong>Theta</strong> does not discriminate.continued on p. 273

THE SCROLL of <strong>Phi</strong> <strong>Delta</strong> <strong>Theta</strong> for MAY, 1970 273continued from p. 271Some argue that it is easier for a group to practicediscrimination with the unanimous ballot than with alower percentage vote for admission. This is a weakargument since it has been proven within the Fraternitythat persons ot minority races are welcome, and we havethe uanimous vote rule. Admittedly, this has not alwaysbeen the case, but it is today.If any change is made in the present unanimous voterule, it will be made by the undergraduates at a GeneralConvention. It's completely out of place tor any outsidegroup, either students or college administrators, to forcevoting rules on any group. As long as fraternities arewelcomed on a campus, their rules must also be accepted.It is hypocritical to take one and not the other. It changesare made, they must be made through the properchannels by those who can legally make them, and bemade because the group wants to do so, not because theywere forced to do so.Selection Decided By Each ChapterBy Arthur Sandeen (Miami of Ohio '60), deanof students, Iowa State University.•If a fraternity is to become something beyond a setof casual acquaintanceships during undergraduate years,then careful attention needs to be given to selectionprocedures. Selection procedures must reflect, above allelse, a strong commitment to the worth and dignity ofeach person as a human being. The selection proceduresshould emerge out of the overall philosophy and guidingpurposes of the General Fraternity and should respect theparticular conditions ot the individual chapter.Selection procedures should be primarily a functionot the feelings, goals and objectives of each individualchapter, within the context of the guiding principles ofbrotherhood of the General Fraternity, To specify certainarbitrary percentage figures needed in a vote formembership misleads the public and the Fraternity membersthemselves concerning the worth of such anorganization. We should not be trying primarily tosatisfy other persons, that is, non-members, on this issuebut we should be trying to construct a system whichbest serves our purposes of brotherhood and friendship. •Blackball System Has <strong>No</strong> PlaceBy Peter Hammerschmidt,Colorado State.president,Each of us should analyze the present blackball system,and decide it it is best for our respective chapters. I sayour chapters because we are the ones that have to livewith the brothers we select, not headquarters, not theAlumni, nor any other <strong>Phi</strong> chapters.In deciding what system to use, the entire chaptershould scrutinize the purpose ot the Fraternity in theuniversity system. If members feel the Fraternity'spurpose is that of a social club, then I would agree withthe unanimous vote s\stem, as in an exclusive countryclub. But it the members decide the Fraternity's mainpurpose is education, then the blackball system has noplace..\ fraternity should aid an individual's overall educationalexperience within the university. The biggestbenefits we receive from the Fraternity are our experienceswith others. W'c cut short the best part of our educationif we limit our relationship with others. This selfimposed limitation, the blackball system, defeats thepurpose of a fraternity at a university, that purposebeing learning how to get along with others and gainingfrom experiences with others. The moment we refuseto let an interested party join our Fraternity we cutout a certain portion of society. This further servesto alienate the Fraternity from society, causing isolation,and maybe the potential downfall of the fraternity.As an alternative to the blackball, each chapter shouldbe an adviser in this case, not a dictator. There is noway it can tell every chapter what to do in this matter,as is the case today, and have it work for each chapter.Individual chapters need individual solutions. IBrotherhood Means 100% AcceptanceBy Roswell Rosengren (Colgate '24), immediatepast president, Washington, D.C, Alumni Club.It was a proud moment when I was unanimouslyinvited to become a <strong>Phi</strong>keia. Brotherhood, to me, hasalways meant unanimous acceptance into the group. Anylesser acceptance constitutes brotherhood watered downin direct proportion to the percentage of negative votepermitted. There is, however, an inherent weakness inthe blackball which raised its ugly head in my ownchapter. We had a block of three brothers from a smallcity who insisted upon the admission of every studentfrom that city under threat to blackball all othercandidates.At the 1968 Convention, even the chapters under theseverest pressure to abolish the unanimous vote rule saidthey could live with a rule permitting one, two or threeblackballs (none suggested more). I am told thediscussions preceding the voting these days exerts somuch pressure on would-be blackballers that the sameeffect is achieved.If <strong>Phi</strong> <strong>Delta</strong> <strong>Theta</strong> were to accept a rule such ashas been imposed by the Board of Trustees of Colgate,that all applicants (who can be self-nominated) receivinga majority vote must be accepted for membership, Iwould prefer that <strong>Phi</strong> <strong>Delta</strong> <strong>Theta</strong> never return to thatcampus. The president of Colgate admits that thefraternity system as we knew it before World War IIis dead in the <strong>No</strong>rtheast and will soon disappearaltogether, I agree, but with certain notable exceptions.As an "old boy" at Oxford once heatedly contended:"Oxford is not what it used to be!" .\ wiser head, insemi-agreement, replied: "<strong>No</strong>, Oxford is not what itused to be . . . and it never was!"Perhaps many ot us look back at undergraduate daysthrough similar rose colored glasses. I have unboundedfaith in the good judgment of the younger generation andrefuse to join the chorus proclaiming that the world isgoing to Hell. Rather, I would like lo see the 1970Convention seek advice from the living and growingband of undergraduate <strong>Phi</strong>s before making this vitaldecision,75% Majority Large EnoughB\ R. Doug Lewis (Emporia '69), assistantchapter advisor, ]Vichita.The question of the unanimous ballot for membershipis one of concern to the fraternity world in general.College and university administrations are being pressuredfrom many sides to open all campus-related organizationsto anyone who wishes to join. The cause is seeminglypopular because it is associated with the notion of equalityfor everyone. Fraternities have been attacked in boththeir strengths and their weaknesses.Strength because the unanimous ballot has allowed<strong>Phi</strong> <strong>Delta</strong> <strong>Theta</strong> to be selective in terms of membershipand has contributed to our longevity and traditionallyhigh calibre of men.•


Weakness because we have been too long the silentminority, failing to present our point ot view with sound,logical reasoning. In short, we have not carried our caseto our publics in a manner which is acceptable.One hundred per cent agreement for a prospective<strong>Phi</strong> is jiist too much to ask. We all have prejudices ofsome sort, and one person's prejudice may prevent theFraternity from accepting a valuable pledge. However,a simple majority vote would not benefit the Fraternityin the long run. We could cause untold damage bysplitting a chapter into two fractions of near equal sizeand destroy unity.I would favor a 75% vote for membership approval.This percentage is large enough to avoid the problemsof a simple majority vote and yet would require enoughmembers voting nay to allow the best interestsof eachchapter to be maintained.Whatever decision is reached must be one by which weall will abide and respect, each chapter and eachindividual <strong>Phi</strong>. We must also know why we take thatposition and be able to relay our reasons to the variouspublics with which we are concerned, and it must besomething more than "because that is the way it hasalways been."•85% Approval Is EnoughBy Paul H. Baker, president, Cornell.It is the duty of our generation to take fiill advantageof all the technological and social resources to be moreintelligent citizens. It is the duty of universities andtheir living units to expand and encourage future leadersto be intelligent decision makers.<strong>Phi</strong> <strong>Delta</strong> <strong>Theta</strong> has a great responsibility in assistingstudents in this educational process. The Fraternity is awonderful opportunity to live and experience the vastdifferences in opinions and cultures. We should valuethe diversity of a campus environment, especially withinour Fraternity. Our local environments will not beselective. The Fraternity, if diversified, can help uslearn to deal with society.<strong>Phi</strong> <strong>Delta</strong> <strong>Theta</strong> is focused around the Bond. Insigning this Bond, we sign a statement of personalethics for the service of not only <strong>Phi</strong>s but ot all ourfellow men. The Fraternity should be a model of groupliving with all men. This is not the case with manychapters. We can no longer condone this selectiveapplication ot the Bond tor we feel it is in directcontradiction to the basic, and very commendable,principles to which the Bond is directed.We claim to be uni ted for a common purpose, andto be after truth tor its own sake. Then why distrust


THE SCROLL of <strong>Phi</strong> <strong>Delta</strong> <strong>Theta</strong> for MAY, 1970 275local autonomy? Are we united it we cannot be trusted?The Bond has been perhaps pushed aside recently in thehopes of pushing forward less creative and even selfishideals. It seems these ideals have replaced those ot trustand true love for all men as suggested by the Bond.At Cornell we could no longer stand by and watch thepurposes of the Bond misused. We therefore requestedsuspension in order that we may live the principles ot theBond.If in 1972 <strong>Phi</strong> <strong>Delta</strong> <strong>Theta</strong> is willing to live andactively make significant strides to remove these taintedinterpretations and practices by the removal of theunanimous selection clause, we would be proud andwilling to once again support <strong>Phi</strong> <strong>Delta</strong> <strong>Theta</strong>. Wefeel we can no longer be hypocritical to the principlesembodied in the Bond. It is time that the brothers of<strong>Phi</strong> <strong>Delta</strong> <strong>Theta</strong> realized and began to accept the verygreat challenge that has been given them by theirpresence as an integral aspect of our higher educationalsystem.•Percentage Set By Each ChapterBy Paul B. Sutherland,i British Columbia.president,At present one member has the right and power byuse of the blackball to restrict entry into the Fraternity.I am opposed to this and propose that the system bechanged so that the name ot a prospective member isbrought up before a chapter meeting, to which alumniare welcome, and discussion is held regarding the man'sapplication.With the blackball system as I know it, a membercould "ding" a man he has contused with someone else.Rush functions involve meeting hundreds of rushees andit is unlikely each member will keep each name andpersonality separated. An open ballot system wouldpermit discussion of the good and bad points about aman. People often have stereotyped ideas about a personor group ot people. Unless we have a system of admissionthat skirts this problem we will be in trouble.Each chapter should have autonomy in deciding on apercentage of nay votes that would keep out a prospectivemember. Conditions vary between areas and in size ofchapter. What prevails in Florida may be quite differentfrom what exists in British Columbia. I would not beagainst a regulation that this percentage not be belowa certain figure, but the exact percentage should be setby the chapter.The blackball should be returned to the dark agesand <strong>Phi</strong> <strong>Delta</strong> <strong>Theta</strong> should proceed into openness andlight.•90% Should Be SufficientBy Jim Barnhart, president, Miami of Ohio.Many of our chapters have been or will be in jeopardyover this issue. Our present system has worked well.Rarely does just one brother vote against a prospectivepledge. He normally discusses this person with others andusually, if a relatively large percentage ot brothers acceptthe prospective pledge, he will go along with them. Ifonly one brother knows the rushee well and rejects him,it is wise to respect his opinion.But, we must change because of the pressure on someot our chapters. They must change their voting systemor lose recognition from the university. A chaptercannot change its procedure in order to avoid trouble, sowe must do so as a general Fraternity.What percentage of members should be necessary toaccept a person as a member of <strong>Phi</strong> <strong>Delta</strong> <strong>Theta</strong>? The


Brothers get together totalk over prospectivepledges before votingbegins.percentage should be stipulated in the Constitutionrather than letting a chapter use its own methods. If 90%ot the members of a chapter Consider a person aSacceptable, that should be sufficient.The important point is to act and act now. Some mayfeel this change will radically affect the Fraternity, buta system such as I have proposed will actually work inpractice very much like the one ball system, we have now.Continue Present SystemBy Scott E. Crowley (Iowa State '40), president,<strong>Phi</strong> Province.Fraternities have been having problems withmembership clauses because of interference from outsidesources, peaking with the 1964 Civil Rights Act. The needfor federal aid panicked institutions to further theirprograms toward integration. The WaggonnerAmendment to the 1965 Higher Education Act providesthat fraternities owning their property or paying fair[276]rent to the university are exempt from the violation ofthe Civil Rights Act so tar as federal aid lo the universityis concerned. However, student-faculty councils arecontinuing their efforts toward de facto segregation byrace, creed and color. I don't believe the majority otstudents, or faculty for that matter, are much interestedin these problems. It seems the minority speaks theloudest and gets the most attention.Through pressure the Fraternity was forced to aiiiendits qualifications for membership. Since this has beendone, further pressures are being brought to bear. Preseiitdemands are to prove by membership lack ofdiscrimination. The next step is to eliminate the one-ballsystem. I can't see where this is going to do anything butopen the door to other unrealistic demands. TheFraternity system is based on selection. If, in good faith,persons are acceptable to the bidding group, this shouldbe ot no concern to outside elements. As far as theone-ball system is concerned, I feel it is one tradition thatshould be continued. In the long run the system hasenjoyed success tor a good many years. Generally, votingis not based on dissent by one member, but by a nutflber


iJ?:®P' ^of members. Where would you draw the line on apercentage vote? We should keep the present statuteand not run the risk of splitting a chapter by going toa percentage selection.A Waiver-Type Of System Is NeededBy Robert W. Fisher, second runnerup for the1968-69 Priest Award.The one blackball system has been very effectiveat Virginia Beta. At the University ot Virginia, due toa five to eight week rush, there is usually littledisagreement upon individual rushees before time tomake a final decision. Only in a very tew instances hasthe one ball been crucial. When used, it has not beenmisused.Brotherhood in <strong>Phi</strong> <strong>Delta</strong> <strong>Theta</strong> is a close andpersonal relationship. There is no place for grudges orbad feelings between brothers. If a brother does notfeel he can develop friendship with a rushee-^friendship similar to that between other brothers inthe chapter—then he should have the right as well asthe duty to oppose the pledging ot that rushee. Forthis reason I feel the one ball system should be continuedat Virginia Beta.Internationally, I do not feel the Fraternity shouldoppose the handling ot matters which affect individualchapters in ways which that chapter feels are best. Thebest policy the Fraternity might adopt would be onewhich leaves the one ball system in its present status,but which allows individual chapters to petition touse an alternative system due to the overwhelmingconsensus of the views of the brothers or to pressurefrom the particular educational institution. Such apolicy would be in the best interest of <strong>Phi</strong> <strong>Delta</strong> <strong>Theta</strong>.75-90% Range Should Be A Good VoteBy Richard Lester, president,Cincinnati.I am firmly in favor of examining the variousproposals Concerning the unanimous ballot. Although amember should have the right to voice or vote his


278 THE SCROLL of <strong>Phi</strong> <strong>Delta</strong> <strong>Theta</strong> for MAY, 1970opinion of a prospective pledge, one vote should not bethe criterion for refusing membership. A figure in the75%-90% range should be chosen as the necessary extentof chapter approval.It the opposing taction has well-founded reasons fornot admitting a man, they should have little problemin attracting enough backers. This would not open thedoor to pledging masses of undesirable <strong>Phi</strong>keias.Unfortunately, there have been obvious cases wherenarrow-mindedness, immaturity, or personal vendettashave played a part in the blackballing of an excellentcandidate. There will be some dissension in the caseot a man having to voice his opinions as to why a manshould be percentage-balled, but this would be muchless than in the case ot the unjustified blackball.Must Be Acceptable To AllBy John Anderson, president,Manitoba.<strong>Phi</strong> <strong>Delta</strong> <strong>Theta</strong> is a social organization, designedsolely to serve its own members and not to influence itsexternal environment, other fraternities, the campus orsociety at large. The attempts at community serviceare rationalizations of our existence, and no more. Weare self-sustaining, self-regulating and self-serving.To define the Fraternity as a social group is not to bederogatory, for it merely implies our aim to helpourselves. The Bond intended the Fraternity to be nomore, since the principles ot friendship, scholarship andmoral rectitude apply only to members.Defined in this way, the Fraternity should not beinfluenced by external opinion concerning our votingsystem. We are responsible only to ourselves.The basis of my chapter is friendship, or brotherhood,with the principles ot scholarship and moral rectitudetaking a back seat. Friendship within such a tightlyknitgroup depends on mutual respect and mutualacceptability. The unanimous ballot is the only logicalbasis for selection. Every brother must realize, beforehe can consider himself a friend to all, that he hasbeen accepted by all. There is no middle groundbetween 50% and unanimity. The perils of the blackballsystem, including personal vendettas, pale before thevital principle ot brotherhood.The blackball system also involves every brotherclosely in the Fraternity. The selection ot members isa crucial part ot the operation ot the group, andevery brother must realize he is personally responsibletor the group as a whole. The blackball systemencourages every brother to take an active role indetermining the future ot the Fraternity.I am completely in favour ot a unanimous ballotsystem.•90% Approval Has AdvantagesBy Brian Sugden, president, Iowa State.The one-ball system is antiquated and does not meetthe needs ot the current Fraternity. In a large chapterthe view that every brother is a true friend ot everyother brother is naive. Diversity in interests andpersonalities has been one of the keys to our successes,and admittedly, also to some ot our failures. But on thewhole this diversity has been beneficial. A one-ballsystem is not conducive to this diversity.If one person has a strong feeling that a rushee willbe detrimental to the chapter, that brother shouldcertainly be able to persuade enough others, say 10%,to prevent a bid. Blackballs should be the result ofserious discussions among brothers, not the whim of a•single man. This whim could also result in greatdamage to the Fraternity it discrimination is alleged.A 90% approval may actually increase selectivity. Abrother who has doubts is often unwilling to exercisehis ball because he hates to have the deciding powerover somebody he's not sure about and, since time ispressing, he lets the individual slide. There are probablyseveral others who have the same doubts. If a brothercould express his doubts through a ball more freely,i.e. knowing that others would have to agree beforethis rushee's fate was decided, fewer people would slidethrough.There are no inherent advantages a one-ball systemhas over 90% approval. A 90% approval has the abovepossible advantages plus the continuance of a very highdegree of selectivity.•Three Blackballs Openly DroppedBy Tony Dustman, president, Kansas.The one-ball elimination creates a lack of interestand enthusiasm in rush. There is the general feelingthat "if the rushee would not benefit from us, or wefrom him, surely one person will ball him. Why shouldI bother; it only takes one." Without the one-ballsystem there would be more concern and active interest.We are being attacked by our peers, not necessarilyby college administrations. Our most vulnerable pointis the one-ball system. Granted, this is only a pickingpoint at the entire system, but I cannot understandwhy a potentially beneficial system should leave openingstor people who want nothing more than to attack torattack's sake.Another point is diversity in the system. Too manytimes a person is rejected because his beliefs andinterests lie in another field. If the Fraternity wouldharm or stifle the individual or the individual wouldharm or degrade our standards, then he should notbe allowed to become a member. But when this is notthe case and the individual is still rejected, it harmsthe development ot Fraternity members.The assumption in a Fraternity is that the menshould co-exist, all be friendly and fit into a socialatmosphere. In tew cases are different types of peopleeven, considered. Our rushing and even our mindshave forgotten the different roads open to them. Thisis a result of the one-ball system.Validity of the unanimous vote comes when allmembers of the group must always function andinteract with all other members; when the organizationrequires all one type to function under its principles,or when one member's influence and will control ormust always be acceptable to the entire group. I havenever found these cases in my chapter. We are allindividuals and express varied beliefs; it is our toleranceand principles we hold in common, not duplicity.This is stifled by the unanimous ballot since onemember may secretly throttle our system.Intellectual development needs a large variety otindividuals—dumb and smart, black and red, liberaland conservative, normal and handicapped. Thus novoting system would be needed. But we must also livein a brotherhood and be guided by basic principlesso as to live in some sort ot peace. Therefore, a votingsystem is necessary. But our voting system's intent isto allow one person to exclude anyone. The one-ballsystem destroys individual voters, unless he is votingagainst a person. The one who secretly votes againstis the one who has all the voice and power. Afraternity is composed ot many segments, many voicescontinued on p. 280

280 THE SCROLL of <strong>Phi</strong> <strong>Delta</strong> <strong>Theta</strong> for MAY, 1970Continued from p. 278and many individuals; it seems right that they allmay express their voice and their power and not haveto succumb to one secret blackballer:One way to meet these problems would be to requireat least three blackballs dropped openly before aperson may be disqualified. I say openly because aperson has a right and obligation to state why hedropped the ball.There are many variables. Individual chapters mustmake sense out ot their education and make soundpersonal decisions. Kansas Alpha is strong because otindividuals and not the system. Our structure allowstremendous expansion and development ot the humanbeing. I hope we can apply it more.<strong>No</strong> Change, But A Waiver AllowedBy J. Ross McKnight, Oklahoma State,1st runnerup, 1968-1969 Priest Award.The question^ot whether or not to maintain thecurrent system ot unanimous consent tor membershipin <strong>Phi</strong> <strong>Delta</strong> <strong>Theta</strong> amounts to whether or not ourFraternity is willing to compromise its ideals otselective pledging in return for a more popular andless selective plan. <strong>Phi</strong> <strong>Delta</strong> <strong>Theta</strong> can boast of beinga great fraternity only because ot the mutual respectand esteem felt by each man in a chapter towards eachot his brothers. The qualities ot friendship andbrotherhood are not easily found today and it is ourduty to sustain and promote the procedures which haveallowed these traits to prevail in our Fraternity.One of the things wrong with the fraternity systemtoday is that in some cases quantity is being substitutedfor quality in the men we pledge. The removal otunanimous consent would eliminate the respect each<strong>Phi</strong> holds for his brother. This respect is built on theknowledge that each man has had the unanimousapproval ot his contemporaries.When a man signs the Bond he is granted all therights and privileges of membership. The number oneand basic right is to be able to select his own friends.If this right dies, then so will the fraternity system..In some cases university policies require fraternitiesto give up unanimous consent, and in these cases <strong>Phi</strong><strong>Delta</strong> <strong>Theta</strong> must be willing to fight. If these fightsdo not succeed, we must then, through consent ot theGeneral Council, be able to waive this unanimousrequirement for membership so the chapter can bemaintained. Each situation must be handled separatelyand fairly by the General Council to protect the rightsof each individual member as well as those ot eachchapter.Many today would have us compromise these rightsand qualities which have made us a great fraternityand substitute in their stead quantity in numbers andpopularity in procedures. Quantity can come withquality in the future as it has in the past. It is ourduty to see that unanimous consent for pledging ismaintained.85% Is High EnoughBy Robert A. Fabre, Southwestern ofLouisiana, 1969-1970 $ A 6 EducationalFoundation Scholar.The problem lies in the purpose ot the blackball.Supposedly a device for safeguarding the Fraternity,it too often is used as a weapon to discriminate againstrace, religion, and individual beliefs, A modernFraternity has no future if it insists on using adevice which antagonizes the already apathetic collegestudent. But, it is imperative a solution be reachedwhere Fraternity standards are not compromised.The question is not on whether or not to change, butrather what means should be employed in a change.The convention should establish a standardized rulingwhere the name brought up for membership berequired to receive 85% approval of the votingmembership. .\ uniform voting regulation must bepassed to insure that all chapters represent the wholeFraternity. Eighty-five per cent is high enough to

Heller, vice president,FranklinThe blackball system was explained to me as amechanism by which a member ot <strong>Phi</strong> <strong>Delta</strong> <strong>Theta</strong>protects his Fraternity against undesirables. This wouldbe appropriate if fraternities were just and ideal Platonicsocieties. However, fraternities cannot be ideal societiesbecause complete understanding and devotion mustexist to achieve this state.To exemplify the ideal ot the blackball, each brothermust keep the best interest ot the Fraternity in mindand at no time let personal feelings alter his decisionson membership. But quite often personal feelings doinfluence votes, and individuals are blackballed withoutany apparent reason or discussion. Even though it isthe brother's right to remain silent, I feel that if aperson is considered undesirable, there is a responsibilityto the Fraternity to point out their particular weaknesses.In my Fraternity experiences, membership hasperiodically been based on such superficial factors asappearance, financial status and personal interests.Too often brothers look at the materialistic aspectsof a man rather than his soul and true virtue.A realistic method of choosing members tor our typeof communal living would be by a three-tourthsmajority. With this rule, problems of individualsbeing turned down because ot personal reasons andsuperficialities would be fewer. More men would sharethe rich experience of Fraternity life.It is a formidable decision to change a system thathas been the backbone of such a great organization.However, it is time to evaluate this exclusive societyand the validity ot its membership selection. With athree-fourths majority vote, chapters would be assuredthat each decision on membership would berepresentative ot the brotherhood and not an individual'sfeelings. With this type ot system, a man is being givenSelf Determination For Each ChapterBy John C. Stebbins, Iowa State, 1969-704> A 0 Educational Foundation Scholar.I believe in self-deterniination. Each chapter isdifferent and should be able to choose brothers in anyway adequate to maintain solid relationships and toadapt to the prevailing social climate on campus. Aftereach chapter decides its membership selectionprocedures, these procedures should be approved by theGeneral Fraternity to maintain rapport with the localcampus climate and chapter feelings. This would allowthe Fraternity to support each chapter in cases of allegeddiscrimination.I tend not to support unanimous ballots for tworeasons. First, being realistic, it never works in practicewhere every member is required to interact with eachrushee, especially it a chapter is large or where thereare many rushees.Secondly, the system is always under attack in regardto discrimination. If the one-ball system were eliminated,the majority of the chapters would not suffer becauseot the prejudices ot a tew. It is important to havecharacter diversity in a chapter. When you havecharacter diversity, there will be conflicting interestsand even conflicting values among individuals. If onebrother decides to exercise his right to reject anindividual because of a conflict of interests and valueswhile the other brothers wish to accept him, thatpotential brother is lost just because he does not think,act, or look good in the eyes of one individual orsmall group ot individuals.When a chapter does not have character diversity,it becomes stereotyped. When this happens, sharingof interests and values cannot exist at a level thatwill be profitable to the members. This sharing iswhat brotherhood is all about.I

Gardner (Washington '18).The award is based on an individual's contributionand service to <strong>Phi</strong> <strong>Delta</strong> <strong>Theta</strong>, highereducation and his community. In Dr. Davis'case, it is difficult to begin listing his manyachievements in all of these areas.For over 30 years he has supplied sports coveragethat is the envy of the fraternity world toTHE SCROLL, five issues a year, never missinga deadline. He organized and serves as secretaryof the All-<strong>Phi</strong> boards, is chairman of the Harmon-RiceCommittee and is a member of theTrautman Award Committee.An acknowledged international track authority,he coached the U.S. International Women'sTrack Teams in 1962, 1966 and in 1969. In1969 the team became the first U.S. women'steam to defeat their Russian counterparts. Hehas coached Olympic athletes on internationalgoodwill tours, has served as a member of theU.S. Olympic Committee since 1964 and hasbeen active in his state in track and baseballprograms for youngsters.He has attended several * A 9.

Tops All Other Chapters In ScholarshipEmporia Wins 1968-69 Ward TrophyMaterial for story and charts compiled by HarryM. Gerlach (Miami '30), scholarship commissioner.Story by Jack McDonald (N.D. '62), SCXOLL editor.[286]ONE of the Fraternity's newest chapters, KansasState Teacher's College at Emporia, haswon the Ward Scholarship Trophy for the 1968-69 academic year.In winning the 1968-69 Trophy, the Fraternity'ssymbol of academic excellence, Emporia<strong>Phi</strong>s saw to it that the trophy stayed in its apparentnew found home, the State of Kansas.<strong>Phi</strong>s at the University of Kansas had won thetrophy three out of the four previous years andfor the past two consecutive years. However,this year the upstarts from Emporia nosed outthe Kansas <strong>Phi</strong>s by .12 of an index rating totake over top spot. Kansas was second.The Fraternity's overall rankings are assignedby an index rating figured by the scholarshipcommissioner using a formula taking into accountall aspects of the various scholarship reports.Emporia, installed Jan. 17-18, 1969 (seeSCROLL, 3-69-230), topped 99 other chapters forwhich scholarship reports were received for the1968-69 academic year to win the coveted WardTrophy the first year it was eligible to do so.Rounding out the top ten scholastic chapters,in order, are Texas Tech, West Texas, NewMexico, Iowa Wesleyan, Texas at Arlington,Washburn, Randolph-Macon and Kansas State.Four of the top ten scholastic chapters are inKansas, while three are in Texas, giving thosetwo states a monopoly on scholarship honors inthe Fraternity.The University of California at Santa Barbaraearned the Fraternity's other top scholarshipaward, the Herrick Improvement Trophy,for the most improved scholarship over its previousyear's record. A sharp increase in the chapter'saverage, coupled with a sharp decline in itscampus all-men's average (AMA), netted thechapter an index increase of 17.16.While Fraternity scholarship is an up-anddownaffair, the 1968-69 reports indicated threedownward trends.First, the number of chapters above theircampus AMAs does not exceed the number belowfor the first time since 1964-65. In 1968-69the 100 reporting chapters split evenly, 50above their AMAs and 50 below.Secondly, out of 74 chapters who reported inboth 1968-69 and 1967-68, 43 reported lower indexratings in 68-69, while only 31 were able toincrease their index ratings.Another disturbing statistic is the number ofchapters deficient in scholarship (below theircampus AMA and ranked scholastically in thelower third of the fraternities on their campus)increased by six, or 22 per cent, to 33 chapters.Another perennially deficient chapter is notlisted this year simply because a scholarship reportwas not received for all the fraternities onits campus. To be included in <strong>Phi</strong> <strong>Delta</strong> <strong>Theta</strong>'sscholarship competition, a report must be receivedon all the fraternities on a particularcampus.While Kansas lost its overall first place spot,it continues to set a hot pace on the HonorRoll where, for the 21st consecutive year, itposted an average above its campus AMA andwas ranked scholastically in the top third ofcampus fraternities.Unfortunately, five would-be honor roll chapters,repeaters from the previous year, could notbe included in the 1968-69 listing because reportswere not received from their campuses.Still another Kansas chapter, Washburn,heads the Fraternity's 1968-69 List of Champions,or chapters which led all fraternities ontheir campuses in scholarship.THE CHAMPIONS1968-69continued on p. 290PHI DELTA THETALED ALL FRATERNITIESON THESE CAMPUSESNumber of ConsecutiveYears in First PlaceWashburn 7New Mexico 2West Texas 2ChicagoIFranklin 1Iowa WesleyanIQeneral Motors 1Emporia 1

Four ofthe five chapters in the State of Kansas, as mentionedearlier, were among the top ten chapters.All but one of the top ten are in the plains orSouthwestern states of Iowa, Kansas, New Mexicoand Texas. The other chapter, Randolph-Macon, returned to its long standing position ofleadership after a three-year absence.Of the states with more than one chapter,only Kansas, Minnesota, Virginia and Wisconsinhad all their chapters above their campusAMAs.Kansas and Texas had the most chaptersabove their respective campus AMAs, five each.On the negative side, several other states withmultiple chapters did not make a good showing.California had one chapter above and three belowthe AMAs (three unreported); Florida, oneabove and three below (one unreported); Indiana,two above and four below (two unreported);Michigan, one above and three below;Ohio, four above and four below (three unreported);and Washington, one above and twobelow (one unreported). All three of Georgia'schapters were below.Pennsylvania had the poorest record, withjust one of its chapters above and six below,with one unreported.The 1968-69 academic year was not a goodyear for scholarship within the Fraternity. If thechapters are to bounce back, as they have in thepast after a bad year, a maximum emphasismust be placed on scholarship by the individualchapters as well as the general officers of theFraternity.•NUMBER OF CHAPTERS ABOVE AND BELOWTHEIR ALL-MEN'S AVERAGES BY STATESIN 1968-1969States orProvincesAlabamaAlbertaArizonaArkansasBritish ColumbiaCaliforniaColoradoFloridaGeorgiaIdahoIllinoisIndianaIowaKansasKentuckyLouisianaMaineMaintobaMarylandMassachusettsMichiganMinnesotaMississippiMissouriMontanaNebraskaNew MexicoNew York<strong>No</strong>rth Carolina<strong>No</strong>rth Dakota<strong>No</strong>va ScotiaOhioOklahomaOntarioOregonPennsylvaniaQuebecSouth CarolinaSouth DakotaTennesseeTexasUtahVermontVirginiaWashingtonWest VirginiaWisconsinWyomingTotalsA boveAMA'SIBelow <strong>No</strong>t TotalAMA'S Reported Chapters11I1 3I I1 3312 I2 42 15I 21 111 2211I1 I1I214 4I II 21 612 15 21I41 2I2150 501I13I2112211I21311321113I382I21I73641483552111I32I322I4311112238II1310II4412I138\\^i «.

Second Chapter In The StateClemson Receives South Carolina GammaBy Allen EdwardsPresidentFOURgenerations of <strong>Phi</strong>s participated asSouth Carolina Gamma chapter of <strong>Phi</strong> <strong>Delta</strong><strong>Theta</strong> was installed at Clemson UniversityMarch 6-7. The installation marked the beginningof the <strong>Phi</strong> era at Clemson after a colonizationperiod of only 66 days.Clemson, a military college until 1955, hadlocal fraternities for 11 years, but not until September,1969, were international fraternities allowedto contact the local organizations. At thattime. Judge Wade S. Weatherford (<strong>No</strong>rth Carolina,'44), reporter of the General Council, andH. L. Stuart (Penn State '20), a past GeneralCouncil president and now chairman of theSurvey Commission, began a visitation programwith seven of the ten local fraternities. Throughmeetings with area alumni and a series of mutualagreements. <strong>Delta</strong> <strong>Phi</strong> Kappa was selectedto be a <strong>Phi</strong> Delt colony on Oct. 28, 1969. Theuniversity did not recognize any internationalfraternity affiliation officially until Jan. 14, aday set aside as National Recognition Day forClemson fraternities.Members of <strong>Delta</strong> <strong>Phi</strong> Kappa became brothersin the Bond of <strong>Phi</strong> <strong>Delta</strong> <strong>Theta</strong> on Friday,March 6, at the Clemson Masonic Temple.Forty-six undergraduates and 11 alumni signedthe Bond.The installation began at 2 P.M. Saturday,March 7, at the Clemson Baptist Church, as thesun went into a total eclipse. The four generationson the installation team were representedby Stuart; Robert E. Ware (Ohio Wesleyan'29), chapter advisor; Judge Weatherford; andJon Shuler (South Carolina '71). Robert J.Miller (New Mexico '50), executive secretary;Clinton T. Willour (Whitman-Washington'64), assistant executive secretary; and Jeff Newton(<strong>No</strong>rth Carolina '54), <strong>Delta</strong> South Provincepresident, rounded out the team. A receptionwas held in the Baptist Fellowship Hall followngthe ceremony.The day was an auspicious occasion, not onlybecause of the eclipse, but also because it wasChapter president Allen Edwards,left, and past presidentH.

m Sick Of It All,Says This College ProfessorThis article is printed with thepermission of its author, a professorof history at the University ofMontana in Missoula, Mont., where hereceived his bachelor's and master'sdegrees in history. He received hisDoctor of <strong>Phi</strong>losophy from UCLA.The article was originally writtenas an expression of Dr. Toole's personalfeelings to his brother. It has sincereceived wide circulation, being reprintedin the Congressional Recordand U.S. News and World Report. Itwill appear in the June Reader's Digest.It was first seen by THE SCROLL in aMarch issue of The Fargo (N.D.) Forum.Drawins by Doherty courtesy ofthe Bell Telephone Masazine.By Dr. K. Ross TooleIAM 49 years old. It took me many years andconsiderable anguish to get where I am—which isn't much of anyplace except exurbia. Iwas nurtured in depression; I lost four years towar; I am invested with sweat; I have had onecoronary; I am a "liberal," square and I am aprofessor. I am sick of the "younger generation,"hippies, yippies, militants and nonsense.I am a professor of history at the Universityof Montana, and I am supposed to have "liaison"with the young. Worse still, I am father ofseven children. They range in age from 7 to23—and I am fed up with nonsense. I am tiredof being blamed, maimed and contrite; I amtired of tolerance and the reaching out (whichis always my function) for understanding. I amsick of the total irrationality of the campus "rebel,"whose bearded visage, dirty hair, body odorand "tactics" are childish but brutal, naive butdangerous, and the essence of arrogant tyranny—the tyranny of spoiled brats.


THE SCROLL of <strong>Phi</strong> <strong>Delta</strong> <strong>Theta</strong> for MAY, 1970 295I am terribly disturbed that I may be incubatingmore of the same. Our household is permissive,our approach to discipline is an apologyand a retreat from standards—usually accompaniedby a gift in cash or kind.It's time to call a halt; time to live in anadult world where we belong and time to putthese people in their places. We owe the "youngergeneration" what all "older generations" haveowed younger generations love, protection to apoint, and respect when they deserve it. We donot owe them our souls, our privacy, our wholelives, and above all, we do not owe them immunityfrom our mistakes, or their own.Every generation makes mistakes, always hasand always will. We have made our share. Butmy generation has made America the most affluentcountry on earth; it has tackled, head-on,a racial problem which no nation on earth inthe history of mankind had dared to do. It haspublicly declared war on poverty and it hasgone to the moon; it has desegregated schoolsand abolished polio; it has presided over thebeginning of what is probably the greatest socialand economic revolution in man's history. Ithas begun these things, not finished them. Ithas declared itself, and committed itself, andtaxed itself, and damn near run itself into theground in the cause of social justice and reform.Its mistakes are fewer than my father's generation—orhis father's, or his. Its greatest mistakeis not Vietnam; it is the abdication of its firstresponsibility, its pusillanimous capitulation toifs youth, and its sick preoccupation with theproblems, the mind, the psyche, the raison d'etreof the young.Since when have children ruled this country?By virtue of what right, by what accomplishmentshould thousands of teen-agers, wet behindthe ears and utterly without the benefitof having lived long enough to have eitherjudgment or wisdom, become the sages of ourtime?The psychologists, the educators and preacherssay the young are rebelling against ourarchaic mores and morals, our materialistic approachesto life, our failures in diplomacy, ourterrible ineptitude in racial matters, our narrownessas parents, our blindness to the root illsof society. Balderdash!Society hangs together by the stitching ofmany threads. <strong>No</strong> 18-year-old is simply the productof his 18 years: He is the product of 3,000years of development of mankind—and throughoutthose years, injustice has existed and beenfought; rules have grown outmoded and beenchanged; doom has hung over men and beenavoided; unjust wars have occurred; pain hasbeen the cost of progress—and man has perservered.As a professor and the father of seven, I havewatched this new generation and concluded thatmost of them are fine. A minority are not—andthe trouble is that minority threatens to tyrannizethe majority and take over.Arrogance is obnoxious; it is also destructive.Society has classically ostracized arrogance withoutthe backing of demonstrable accomplishment.Why, then, do we tolerate arrogant slobswho occupy our homes, our administration buildings,our streets and parks, urinating on ourbeliefs and defiling our premises? It is not thepolice we need (our generation and theirs), it


296 THE SCROLL of <strong>Phi</strong> <strong>Delta</strong> <strong>Theta</strong> for MAY, 1970is an expression of our disgust and disdain. Yetwe do more than permit it, we dignify it withintrospective flagellation. Somehow it is ourfault. Balderdash again!Sensitivity is not the property of the young,nor was it invented in 1950. The young of anygeneration have felt the same impulse to grow,to reach out, to touch stars, to live freely and tolet the minds loose along unexplored corridors.Today's young people did not invent it; theydo not own it. And what they seek to attain, allmankind has sought to attain throughout theages. Shall we, therefore approve the presumedattainment of it through heroin, speed, LSD andother drugs? And shall we, permissively, let thempoison themselves simply because, as in mostother respects, we feel vaguely guilty becausewe brought them into this world? Again, it isnot the police raids and tougher laws that weneed; it is merely strength. The strength to explain,in our potty middle-aged way, that whatthey seek, we sought; that it is somewhere butnot here and sure as hell not in drugs; that, inthe meanwhile, they will cease and desist the poisongame. And this we must explain early andhard—and then police it ourselves.Society, "the establishment," is not a foreignthing we seek to impose on the young. We knowit is far from perfect. We did not make it; weonly sought to change it. The fact that we haveonly been minimally successful is the story of allgenerations—as it will be the story of the generationcoming up.Yet we have worked a number of wonders. Wehave changed it. We are deeply concernedabout our failures; we have not solved the racialproblem but we have faced it; we are terriblyworried about the degradation of our environment,about injustices, inequities, the militaryindustrialcomplex and bureaucracy. But wehave attacked these things. We have, all ourlives, taken arms against our sea of troubles—and fought effectively. But we also have foughtwith a rational knowledge of the strength of ouradversary; and, above all, knowing that the waris one of attrition in which the "unconditionalsurrender" of the forces of evil is not about tooccur. We win, if we win at all, slowly and painfully.That is the kind of war society has alwaysfought—because man is what he is., Knowing this, why do we listen subservientlyto the violent tacticians of the new generation?Either they have total victory by Wednesdaynext or burn down our carefully built barricadesin adolescent pique; either they win nowor flee off to a commune and quit; either theysolve all problems this week or join a wreckingcrew of paranoids.Youth has always been characterized by impatientidealism. If it were not, there would beno change. But impatient idealism does not extendto guns, fire bombs, riots, vicious arrogance,and instant gratification. That is not idealism;it is childish tyranny.The worst of it is that we (professors and facultiesin particular), in a paroxysm of selfabnegationand apology, go along—abdicate,apologize as if we had personally created the illsof the world—and thus lend ourselves to chaos.We are the led, not the leaders. And we arefools.As a professor I meet the activists and the revolutionariesevery day. They are inexcusablyignorant. If you want to make a revolution doyou not study the ways to do it? Of course not!Che Guevarra becomes their hero. He failed; hedied in the jungles of Boliva with an army ofsix. His every move a miscalculation and a mistake.Mao Tse-tung and Ho Chi-minh led revolutionsbased on a peasantry and an overwhelminglyancient rural economy. They are the pattern-makersfor SDS and the student militants.I have yet to talk to an "activist" who hasread Crane Brinton's, "The Anatomy of Revolution,"or who is familiar with the works ofJefferson, Washington, Paine, Adams or evenMarx or Engles. And I have yet to talk to astudent militant who has read about racism elsewhereor who understands, even primitively, thelong and wondrous struggle of the NAACP andthe genius of Martin Luther King—whose namethey invariably take in vain.I assert that we are in trouble with thisyounger generation not because we have failedour country, not because of affluence or stupidity,not because we are antedeluvian, not becausewe are middle-class materialists—but simply becausewe have failed to keep that generation inits place and we have failed to put them backthere when they got out of it. We have thepower; we do not have the will. We have theright, we have not exercised it.To the extent that we now rely on the police,mace, the National Guard, tear gas, steel fencesand a wringing of hands, we will fail.What we need is a reappraisal of our ownmiddle-class selves, our worth and our hard-wonprogress. We need to use disdain, not mace, weneed to reassess a weapon we came by the hardway, by travail and labor, firm authority as parents,teachers, businessmen, workers and politicians.The vast majority of our children from 1 to20 are fine kids. We need to back this majoritywith authority and with the firm conviction that


THE SCROLL of <strong>Phi</strong> <strong>Delta</strong> <strong>Theta</strong> for MAY, 1970 297we owe it to them and to ourselves. Enough ofapology, enough of analysis, enough of our abdicationof responsibility, enough of the denial ofour own maturity and good sense.The best place to start is at home. But, themost practical and effective place, right now, isour campuses. This does not mean a flood ofangfry edicts, a sudden clamp-down, a "new"policy. It simply means that faculties shouldstop playing chicken, that demonstrators shouldbe met not with police but with expulsions. Thepower to expel (strangely unused) has been thelegitimate recourse of universities since 1209.More importantly it means that at freshmanorientation, whatever form it takes, the administrationshould set forth the ground rules—notbelligerently but forthrightly.A university is the microcosm of society itself.It cannot function without rules for conduct. Itcannot, as society cannot, legislate morals. It isdealing with young men and women, 18 to 22.But it can, and must, promulgate rules. It cannotfunction without order—and, therefore, whodisrupts order must leave. It cannot permit studentsto determine when, what and where theyshall be taught; it cannot permit the occupationof its premises, in violation both of the law andits regulations, by "militants."There is room within the university complexfor basic student participation but there is notroom for slobs, disruption and violence. Thefirst obligation of the administration is to laydown the rules early, clearly and positively, andto attach to this statement the penalty for violation.It is profoundly simple—and the failureto state it—in advance—is the salient failure ofuniversity administrators in this age.Expulsion is a dreaded verdict. The administrationmerely needs to make it clear, quite dispassionately,that expulsion is the inevitableconsequence of violation of the rules. Amongthe rules, even though it seems gratuitous, shouldbe these:1. Violence, armed or otherwise, the forcefuloccupation of buildings, the intimidation by covertor overt act of any student or faculty memberor administrative personnel, the occupationof any university property, field, park, building,lot or other place, shall be cause for expulsion.2. The disruption of any class, directly or indirectly,by voice or presence or the destructionof any university property, shall be cause forexpulsion.This is neither new nor revolutionary. It ismerely the reassertion of an old, accepted andnecessary right of the administration of anysuch institution. And the faculty should be informed,firmly, of this reassertion, before troublestarts.This does not constitute provocation. It isone of the oldest rights and necessities of theuniversity community. The failure of universityadministrators to use it is one of the mysteriesof our permissive age—and the blame must falllargely on faculties because they have consistentlypressured administrators not to act.Suppose the students refuse to recognize expulsions,suppose they march, riot, strike. The police?<strong>No</strong>.The matter, by prearrangement, publiclystated, should then pass to the courts. If buildingsare occupied, the court enjoins the participatingstudent. It has the lawful power to declarethem in contempt.If violence ensues, it is in violation of thecourt's order. Courts are not subject to fears,not part of the action. And what militant willshout obscenities in court with contempt hangingover his head?Too simple? <strong>No</strong>t at aU. Merely an old processwhich we seem to have forgotten. It is too directfor those who seek to employ Freudian analysis,too positive for "academic senates" who seekorgastic self condemnation.This country is full of decent, worried peoplelike myself. It is also a country full of peoplefed-up with nonsense. We need (those of us over30, tax ridden, harried, confused, weary andbeat-up) to reassert our hard won perogatives.It is our country too. We have fought for it,bled for it, dreamed for it, and we love it. It istime to reclaim it.•"This country is full ofdecent, worried peoplelike myself.

I studiedat the University of Wisconsin in1959-60 and was always impressed bythe neatness, generosity and kindnessof my fellow students.I detected no great change in thisrespect at my visit in 1963. In thespring of 1968, however, there was asignificant deterioration of the valuesI had appreciated so much. I sawmembers of various fraternities ofsuch low standard that they wouldnot have been admitted as guests inmy time. I found the general attitudetowards the Vietnam war, etc., bothimmature and leftish.

Walter Havighurst Recalls Early Days OfProf. Walter Havighurst (Ohio Wesleyan '23),a distinguished author and teacher at MiamiUniversity, gave this address at Founders Dayobservances in Oxford, Ohio, at which he becamea Golden Legionnaire.At a Golden Legion ceremony it is appropriate toremember the past, and I'd like to recall, briefly,the beginnings of our Fraternity. Old Miami was amen's college, with three buildings. Main, <strong>No</strong>rthand South Halls, now named Harrison, Elliott andStoddard after <strong>Phi</strong>s Benjamin Harrison, 1852;Charles Elliott, 1840; and Orange N. Stoddard, 1834.Jn the two old dorms the students cooked theirmeals, studied their lessons, chopped wood from thecampus forest, had dog and raccoon fights, andplotted against the faculty. On each landing stooda tin bathtub, full of corncobs, apple cores andpotato peelings. Outside Main Hall was the campuswell, with a wooden bucket on a rope. Behind thedorms a path led to the college latrine.Each spring a trustees' committee inspected thebuildings. In 1835 they reported: "The new edifice(present Stoddard Hall) has been much injured. Thestairs and woodwork have been much hacked andwhittled and the glass much broken." Five yearslater things were worse. "We find the rooms verydirty, and the committee feel it their duty to statethat the habit indulged in by the students ofurinating out the college windows is a disgracefulnuisance. If no other means can be found to preventthis evil the committee would recommend that thesuperintendent fill up the lower part of the windowsby a brick wall."This primitive college had no athletics, nodramatic, musical or political organizations, nosocial life—except what went on in their clutteredrooms. In one of those rooms our Fraternity began.It offered pride of membership, close personal tiesand shared aspirations.In the old college the fraternities met a need, andit is my belief that they meet a need today. In alarge complex, impersonal university the chapterhouse provides a personal association. It offers groupidentification, an experience in cooperation andself-government. It calls for a sharing of friendship,responsibility and participation. And it gives a senseof continuity, an awareness of tradition. In thischanging world it reminds us of things that last.I remember an evening like this 50 years ago,when as a newly initiated <strong>Phi</strong> I sat among studentand alumni members while a white-haired professorof mathematics was enrolled in the Golden Legion.It never occurred to me that I might some day be inhis place. Since then there have been more changesOxford: Speaker HavighurstThere were 54 present, including theladies and alumni from chapters allover the nation. New officers electedwere president, Tom Vickers (Southwesternof Texas '65); vice president,Jon Lemon (Texas Tech '63); treasurer,Joe Bank (Southwestern ofTexas '25); and secretary, Glenn Foster(Indiana '18).Jerry Knauff (Southwestern ofTexas '65), president of Rho SouthProvince, gave an interesting talk onthe problems facing fraternities today.The brothers were very much interestedin what he had to say. A generaldiscussion followed.—Glenn FosterWashington, D.C.On March 19 nearly 100 <strong>Phi</strong>s ofthe Washington Metropolitan AlumniClub gathered at the Kenwood CountryClub in Maryland to celebrate the22nd anniversary of our Fraternity.The proportion of undergraduatesfrom the University of Maryland, theUniversity of Virginia and the Universityof Richmond constituted thelargest turn-out of undergraduates inrecent memory. Following the socialhour, the meeting, presided over byCol. (Ret.) Roswell P. Rosengren[314](Colgate '24), was divided into threeparts. First, was an address, "WhitherFraternities," by former West VirginiaGovernor Hulett C. Smith(Penn '38). This speech should beheard by every undergraduate on everycampus. It was greeted with aprolonged, standing ovation.As usual the meeting heard fromthe presidents of the chapters present:Steve Leslie, Maryland; JimDuffy, Virginia; and Tom Toberman,Richmond. The grand finale of theformal meeting consisted of theGolden Legionnaire Ceremony conductedby President Rosengren. Sixbrothers from Maryland Alpha lit thetraditional six candles. Walter Smith(Idaho '21) presented the certificatesto Brig. Gen. (Ret.) Ralph I. Glasgowand Charles B. Jennings, bothIdaho '23. Carl A. Scheid (Chicago'32), <strong>Delta</strong> <strong>No</strong>rth Province president,who was earlier given a standing voteof thanks for his continuous laborsfor the Washington Alumni Club,presented the certificate to WaldemanWeichbrodt (<strong>No</strong>rthwestern '22). Theimmediate past president of our club,Everett A. Corey (Syracuse '23), receivedhis certificate from his successor,brother Rosengren.Finally, while the results of thenominating committee were awaited.


Fraternity At Oxford's Founders Daythan in any half century of history. Yet here tonightwe light the same six candles and call the same rollof names. We sing the same songs and repeat thesame words. I remember, that evening, a sense ofkinship between the older and the younger members,men of the world and men with the world beforethem. I think we have that same kinship now.When a boy comes to college he can easily findfriends with his own interests, from backgroundslike his own. But a good fraternity has a diversemembership—I think of a chapter with a few scholars,a few athletes, a campus editor, a couple ofmusicians, some bridge and poker players, a fewcampus politicians. In college these men reach intovarious roles, directions. It is good for a collegeyouth to belong to such a diverse and yet coherentgroup.A few years ago I found in the mail a bulkymanuscript from Stanford. It was the reminiscenceof a 90-year-old alumnus of Miami University and amember of <strong>Phi</strong> <strong>Delta</strong> <strong>Theta</strong>. He was Col. EdwinEmerson, 1890. His manuscript told how he hadgrown up in Heidelberg and Munich, where hisfather was U.S. Consul, and how he came to Miamias a sophomore. He came here in 1887, just two yearsafter the re-opening of the college. Miami University,deep in debt, had been closed for twelve years,.1873-1885. In that interval the old fraternities, byall logic, should have died. But when the collegedoors re-opened, the fraternities revived.Young Emerson was rushed by all three of them.Fresh from Germany, he had no idea what afraternity was (these chapters had no house, noboarding club, no intrarhural teams, no socialprogram), so he asked his Greek professor aboutthem. Professor Sterriit told him that fraternitieswere secret societies, but they all had the samesecrets, which were unimportant; they were also, hesaid, close groups of friends.Emerson liked the <strong>Phi</strong> Delt group. He was rushed,pledged and initiated in one week. Seventy yearslater, writing from Palo Alto, Calif., he said thathe had made a good choice; he learned as much fromhis varied friendships as from his course of study.From Miami he went to work on Whitelaw Reid'sNew York Tribune; he became a Rough Rider withTeddy Roosevelt in Cuba; and he had a long careeras a foreign correspondent in 15 countries.If he could return here now. Col. Emerson wouldnot recognize his college. All is changed since hesigned the bond in 1887, yet the Fraternity remains.It must have a secret of survival—not a guardedsecret of ritual and ceremony but the open secretof a shared life in a diverse and coherent association,where the rule is "All for one and one for all." •the large Maryland delegation entertainedvith songs of <strong>Phi</strong> <strong>Delta</strong> <strong>Theta</strong>.Officers^ifbr 1970-71, duly nominatedand unanimously elected, are president,Donald Myers (West Virginia'63); vice president, John Talbot(Maryland *63); secretary, JohnCramer (Chicago '48); and treasurer,Everett Flood (Arizona '28).—RosweURosengrenArmstrong's moon walk, with a congratulatorymessage to Dave fromNeil.

Omigosh!It'sRalph!Photo and story courtesyDes iMoiries Register andTribuneLeading off the "R's" in the 1969-70 Drake University Student Directoryis Ralph, 692 Forty-eighth St., Phone255-6346.<strong>No</strong> last name is given, for there isnone and none is needed.Ralph is a dog, a dog with an IDcard that admits him, like anystudent on the Drake campus, tosports events and any culturalactivities he might favor with hispresence, and permits him a voice votein elections.Ralph's fraternity is <strong>Phi</strong> <strong>Delta</strong><strong>Theta</strong>. The directory address is thehome of Mr. and Mrs. John R. Hoff,whose sons, John Jr., a Drakegraduate now in the Air Force and,Robert, a senior in businessadministration, are both <strong>Phi</strong> Deltsand through the years have beenRalph's closest friends.When the Drake <strong>Phi</strong> chapterreceived its charter in 1961,representatives from chapters at theUniversity of Iowa and Iowa StateUniversity presented the new groupwith a dog, a breed favored by thefraternity throughout the land, SaintBernards.Well, halfabreed, perhaps . . ."They got him at the AnimalRescue League and he's part collie,"say Bob Hoff. "The front half isSaint Bernard, the back half collie."other campus dogs have had theirday at Drake, but Ralph, even in asetting whose symbol is the bulldog,has endured.He has.become a campus institutionis greeted by name as he trotsaround with Hoff to classes—moreoften perhaps than any other campusfigure.[318]In his nine years he has accruedlegend as lesser dogs attract fleas.It is told that Mrs. Hoff, who oncenursed Ralph back from a mysteriousblow he received on the head andthenceforth became his slave, decidedRalph, like any student, must payfor his education and stopped bythe cashier's office to do so.Unblinking, the cashier replied,"Our records show that Ralph is paidup for this semester."In the 1969 Quax, Drake annual,Ralphs's picture appears a numberof times: it's pictured right there inthe layout of business administration


majors, it's in the fraternity compositeand it's part of a montage heading asection of "Reflections.""Ralph is a member of 14different organizations," said Hoff."He's a joiner."One faculty member spotted Ralphin class and, no doubt fearing aprecedent in which Saint Bernardswould take over, ordered him out.The class got up to leave. Theprofessor yielded, was quoted assaying: "I learned about Ralph thehard way."Ralph has military credentials.A memo to A.F.R.O.T.C. Cadet Hoffreads: "Subject: Attendance ofAS400 Class."1. This is to inform you thatRalph, 'The Campus Canine King,'is authorized to attend AS400 class.Be certain that the cables on hisuniform are held to a minimum. Hisclass duties will be official cornersleeper."Signed: "Gary W. Mitchell, Capt.USAF, AS400 Instructor."Though Ralph has been attendingclasses for nine years he is by nomeans retarded.[319]"He is a very intelligent dog. He'sreally in graduate school," says BobHoff. "He can do about a dozentricks. He'll come when you call,lie down at command, roll over,catch sticks, newspapers—sometimesnewspaperboys."He can dance—he^s a fraternityman—and he shakes hands, somethinghe learned during rush week. •

Kent Honors Kitch,21 Years As AdvisorBy James RodkeyVice PresidentTHE annual Founders Day banquet of OhioLambda, Kent State University, took onadded significance this year, as the brothers correlatedcelebration of the founding of the Fraternitywith a testimonial dinner honoring ourretiring advisor, Paul C. Kitchin, '46. March 7was the date, Mogadore Country Club was theplace, as an overflow crowd of over 200 undergraduates,alumni, friends of the Fraternity,and their wives and dates turned out for theevent."Kitch" became chapter advisor when it wasstill <strong>Phi</strong> Gamma <strong>Theta</strong> local fraternity in 1<strong>94</strong>9.He guided the chapter through the first tryingyears of existence as a local and was instrumentalin its affiliation with <strong>Phi</strong> <strong>Delta</strong> <strong>Theta</strong> in1954. In recognition of his service, he was initiatedinto the chapter as Bond <strong>No</strong>. 1 whenOhio Lambda was installed on Dec. 11, 1954.Since that time, Kitch has devoted much timeand energy at Ohio Lambda and the brothersowe him an immeasurable amount of gratitudefor his efforts. This year he decided to retirefrom his duties. What better way to honorsomeone who has done so much for a chapterthan to recognize him at an occasion commemoratingthe Fraternity and the principles forwhich it stands.The banquet was an overwhelming success.The festivities started with a cocktail and get reacquaintedhour. Dinner was next, followed byspeeches and presentations to Kitch. Distinguishedguests included Sigma Province PresidentVerlin Jenkins (Akron '24), Dave Puddington(Ohio Wesleyan '50), head footballcoach at Kent, and Gary Soehner, coordinatorof Greek affairs at Kent.Ohio Lambda's Alumni Association, representedby Chuck Ness, '50, president of thehousing corporation, and Dick Bennett, '57, editorof the alumni newsletter, presented gifts toKitch and his wife. The alumni also announcedthe establishment of The Paul C. Kitchin MemorialScholarship Fund. Chapter PresidentDenny Manes presented Kitch with a goldwatch and a Fraternity chair on behalf of thechapter.[323]Kitch honored: Paul C. Kitchin, '46, left, receivedan appreciation plaque from Sigma Province presidentVerlin Jenkins (Akron '24), right, while pastpresidents of the Kent <strong>Phi</strong> chapter looked on.Province President Jenkins delivered themain address. He spoke on the significance ofthe saying, "Once a <strong>Phi</strong>, always a <strong>Phi</strong>," emphasizingthe role of the alumni in Fraternity life.He finished his speech by presenting Kitch witha plaque awarded him by the General Councilof <strong>Phi</strong> <strong>Delta</strong> <strong>Theta</strong> for "20 years of meritousservice to the Fraternity."The formal portion of the banquet was cappedby Lodge Hanlon, '53, secretary-treasurer ofthe housing corporation, who spoke on thefinancing of our new chapter house. He revealeda distinctive plan of financing calling forthe formation of the Fraternity Financial Corporation,a profit-making corporation devotedto the financing and construction of fraternityhouses. He said prospectus for the corporationis being presented to the Ohio Securities andExchange Commission, and if approved, stockwill be offered for sale to all interested alumniand the general public in early summer.There is no doubt the banquet was the mostsuccessful event ever sponsored by the undergraduatesand alumni of Ohio Lambda. It was afitting tribute to a man who gave his all so that<strong>Phi</strong> <strong>Delta</strong> <strong>Theta</strong> could occupy the high place itdoes today among fraternities at Kent. It is hardto express the feelings of the chapter andalumni towards Kitch at his retirement. Perhapsthe inscription on the back of the watch givenhim sums it up as best as possible: "To BrotherKitchin, thanks for twenty years."•

New Mexico: L-R, <strong>Phi</strong>s Kevin Kelly, Bill Zoucha and Taylor Floyd Work on hotel muralFrom The Old Alvarado HotelNew Mexico <strong>Phi</strong>s Save Historic MuralsAn alert <strong>Phi</strong> and some of his hardworking chaptermates have saved afew of the historic murals from theold Alvarado Hotel, an Albuquerque,N.M., landmark.Kevin Kelly, a 20-year-old speechmajor, spotted the murals, which hadbeen hidden for about a quartercenturybehind some wood paneling,when he was wandering through theold hotel looking for some bells. The67-year-old hotel, long a stopping offspot for anyone traveling through thearea on the Sante Fe RR, was beingdemolished.Kelly, who paid $20 for the sixpanels, said he hoped they wouldsomeday be in a museum.The murals have been identifiedas those painted in 1910 by OliveRush, a noted Sante Fe artist whodied several years ago.They are thought to be the onlyexisting copies of drawing which,appeared in a 16th Century book,"Lienzo Tlaxcala," believed to havebeen written and illustrated by aTlaxcalan Indian who accompaniedthe Coronado Expedition to NewMexico in 1540.The murals depict scenes fromthat expedition. <strong>No</strong> known copiesof the book remain in existence.After first spotting the murals andmaking arrangements to buy them,Kelly got <strong>Phi</strong> buddies Joe Gallagher,Bill Zoucha and Taylor Floyd tocome back to the hotel with him andget the murals off the walls."We used crowbars, saws and tin[328]snips to remove the panels," he said."It was quite a fob." Three of thepanels are about 10 feet long andfive feet high, and the three othermeasure about five by four feet.Kelly said he does not hope tomake a fortune from the rare andlong-lost murals when he sells them,but that he would like to at leastrecover his expenses plus a smallprofit."After all," he said, "I amworking my way through college."The murals include scenes ofCoronado at Zuni, Acoma andQuivira and translations of CorOnadp'sletters to the viceroy of New Spainin Mexico City. • .

The Status Of Suspended ChaptersAn Information Report To <strong>Phi</strong> Delt AlumniAs noted on p. 203 in the story on expansion in the March SCROLL, <strong>Phi</strong> <strong>Delta</strong><strong>Theta</strong> currently has several chapters under suspension for various reasons.•It is the Fraternity's belief that the current status of these chapters would beof interest to alumni and undergraduates for its news value and as an indicationof some of the difficulties facing the Fraternity today.The following are brief summaries of the situations involving each of the chapters.If you are interested in further information concerning any of the chapters,it is suggested you write to Robert J. Miller (N.M. '50), executive secretary. Box151, Oxford, Ohio.California Alpha—University of California at BerkeleyThe charter of this chapter was surrendered by agreement of the undergraduate and alumnimembers because of the general decline of the student body. It was feh that there were not enoughstudents of fraternity caliber on the Berkeley campus to sustain the existing fraternity system. Severalother fraternities have also suspended operations on this campus.California Gamma—University of California at Los AngelesThe charter of this chapter was surrendered by the undergraduates and alumni because of asignificant change in campus atmosphere insofar as fraternities are concerned. Although the situationis not as clearly defined as Berkeley, it was the sentiment of persons involved that <strong>Phi</strong> <strong>Delta</strong><strong>Theta</strong> could not maintain its standards of operation during the current academic year.Iowa Beta—University of IowaThe charter of this chapter was suspended by the General Council because of internal problemswhich were manifested in the inferior overall operation of the chapter. Fraternity officers are currentlyworking with a local fraternity which has been established, in the hope that the chartermay be returned during the 1970-71 academic year.Louisiana Alpha—Tulane UniversityThe charter of this chapter was suspended by the General Council because of sub par operationat the local level.New York Alpha—Cornell UniversityThe members of this chapter surrendered the charter because of campus pressure from the administration,faculty and student body to alter the vote on membership selection (see report,SCROLL, 9-69-29; and Cornell ballot opinion, p. 274 this issue).New York Zeta—Colgate UniversityThe administration suspended the operations of this chapter to satisfy the demands of the localAssociation of Black Collegians. The chapter had violated no rules or regulations of Colgate Universityor <strong>Phi</strong> <strong>Delta</strong> <strong>Theta</strong> Fraternity.Wisconsin Alpha—University of WisconsinThe activity of this chapter was suspended by the local Human Rights Committee followingthe 1962 Convention. It has been the hope of many alumni that the charter could be returned atan early date but no encouragement has been forthcoming from local administration.
