Phi Beta Kappas: No Accident

SHOULD ANYONE need it, a roll call of the Fraternity 's Phi Beta Kappas for any given year should be proof enough that the busy man is likely to be the most efficient.

Beta 's 96 chapters were invited to list for this issue the Phi Beta Kappas of their 1957 and 1958 classes, with detail concerning the other campus activities of those men. We have good reason to believe there are more, and that some men mentioned in other connections belong in tbis list. In several cases , perhaps due to misunderstanding by chapter correspondents , complete information has not been included.

Even as a sampling, however, the list is impressive:

UCLA: John Considine , '57, wrote " Evolution of the Spring Sing " and arranged " Orchestra Song" which received second place in UCLA 's annual spring sings for 1954 and 1956 respectively; wrote and directed "American Love Song" which won the novelty division and was a close second for sweepstakes in 1955, and wrote the music and lyrics for the Homecoming Shows of 1955 and 1956, as well as those which will be used next fall . He also recently wrote UCLA's first official class song, "Class of '57"; was chairman of the first Cerebral Palsy drive at UCLA, and has been executive secretary and song chairman of the chapter.

one of few admitted to Hopkins' medical on a three-year degree.

Kansas: William LaRue, member of Scab! and Blade, treasurer of Sachem, senior honorary , and Frank McKnight, '57, Sachem and winner of the Outstanding Student award.

Kenyon: William Wainwright, '5 7. Knox: James Roberts, '57, IFC former editor the Knox Student, varstty mer , whose previous honors have been in earlier issues.

Maine: William Scott, '57, registered for final semester. Also was elected Kappa Phi.

Michigan: Robert Berner, ' 57, also Phi Phi and winner of three scholarships.

Nebraska: Melvin Thornton, '57, chapter cording secretary, rna joring in physics math.

North Carolina: Five Beta Juniors were into Phi Beta Kappa this spring, and Holding, nephew of former trustee Clem Holding, North Carolina '18, leading the university scholastically with a 97.5 was named president of the university's of Phi Beta Kappa. Others are Kelly Bailey Liipfert, Henry Turner, and Larie ner.

Ohio Wesleyan: Bradley N Boen, '58, year track letterman.

Pennsylvania: Richard Csencsitz, '58, baskett player, and Norman Beck, ' 58.

Larson was president of International relations club; his brother Sanfred, '60, made Phi Eta Sigma. Litzenberg also has received a Danforth Fellowship to attend Yale Divinity School.

Williams: Richard C. Repp, '5 7 , permanent president of his class after perennial re-election; soccer letterman, recipient of both Grosvenor Cup and Millar Romaine, Jr. , scholarship to outstanding junior, chapter president, Greek major, Gargoyle Society.

We risk argument at any mention of "equivalents" of Phi Beta Kappa. Nevertheless, we bow to local perspective and to diligence. Whereas some chapter correspondents ignored requests for a Phi Beta Kappa report, others pointed out that in the particular circumstances of their schools, certain honoraries should be considered the equivalent of Phi Beta Kappa. Such cases are listed here, even though membership in the same organizations on other campuses has been treated more casually in other chapter reports.

In the same league with these Phi Betes is the latest addition to the Administrative Office stall in Oxford, Molly Ann Shere, a Miami '60 Chi Omega who re gistered straight· A for both semesters of a freshman year which included election to a top class office, Triad and Navy Boll queenships and an honorary. She ' s member of one of the largest Beta families on record: daughter of Don Shere, Miami '17 , who hod four brothers and a nephew in Alpha Chapter : George M., '96 ; Philip D., ' 99; Charles A , '03; Carey M. , ' 10, and George M., Jr., '34.

A Search for Leaders

As A NEW EDUCATIONAL PROJECT to find and sponsor college graduates with a capacity for leadership, a number of $2,000-a-year leadership grants for graduate study will be awarded by the Edward John Noble Foundation, it was announced recently by its founder Edward John Noble, Syracuse '05, Yale '06.

"The Foundation's trustees realize there is today a dire need for leadership in the world," Noble explained. "Young men who have those qualities which indicate leadership potential, one of our most significant national assets , should be encouraged and helped.

"In selecting candidates for grants, the Foundation will not undervalue the importance of scholarship but is well aware that the factor of leadership potential does not necessarily follow high scholastic standing. We are eager to 1 encourage and help individuals with such po. tential to prepare themselves beyond college for responsible positions in business, the law, medicine, teaching, government, the ministry and many other fields."

Recommendations for the leadership grants T I bra are to come through college officials. The Foundation has indicated that ultimately more than 200 grants may be given annually, each to continue through the periods required for advanced training.

The leadership grant is the latest of a number of philanthropic projects to be undertaken 1 by the foundation since its establishment by Noble in 1940. The foundation's activit ie s have included sponsoring the construction and maintenance of the Edward John Noble Hospitals in Alexandria Bay, Gouverneur, and Canton, N.Y.; contribution of a half million dollars toward the construction of a Student Union building at St. Lawrence University; substantial contributions to well-known national charities

and to Community Chest in various New York and Connecticut communities. Noble's substantial annual gifts to the Foundation have included a $2,000,000 gift in 1953, and $5,000,000 in 1954.

Founder of Life Savers Corporation and the American Broadcasting System , Noble is a former chairman of the Civil Aeronautics Authority and former Undersecretary of Commerce. A member of the advisory committee of the Federal Reserve Bank of New York for a number of years, he now is chairman of the board and chief executive officer of BeechNut Life Savers, Inc and a director and Chairman of the Finance Committee of American Broadcasting-Paramount Theatres, Inc.

Gamma Omicron's 6th Rhodes Scholar

TWO BETAS IN TH E SECOND YEAR of their Rhodes Scholarship study at Oxford University will be joined this fall by Sholto Hebenton , British Columbia '57 , sixth Rhodes man to be chosen from a chapter only founded in 1936 .

Herb Hebenton , as friends know him better, was outstanding in every field he chose to enter Probably most proficient at hockey , which he learned at his home town of Penticton , B.C., he never turned out for varsity competition in that sport; but he played three seasons of varsity baseball and as a freshman quarterbacked the JV football team.

He took an Honours Course in Arts & Science . H e was president of the United Nations Club , one of the major clubs on this campus. But most of all , he was a real leader as president of Gamma Omicron chapter the past year.

Perh ap s hi s outst a nding attribute, so far as the rest of the chapter wa s concerned , was his determination th a t " Beta comes first " By this , he meant th a t if chapter a ctivities conflicted with his varsity athletics , his campus activities , or even to considerable degree, his studies , the chapter activity would not be the thing to suffer . All in all , our chapter considers Herb one of its outstand ing alumni

&walld ].iul.d.ll.

Many other Betas will be helped in their uate study through fellowships and grants from industry, foundations and individual benefactors or organizations.

Michael D'Innocenzo, Union '57, became on.e. of the first beneficiaries of the new EdwarO. John Noble Leadership Grant, described elsewhere in this issue, receiving $8,000 from tha foundation established by a Beta in addition to a full Danforth Scholarship for four years oft graduate study in History. The former Nu chap- · ter president also received Union's highest un- · dergraduate award, the Bailey Cup for Service! to Union in any field , and the Smith Prize for · outstanding thesis in history as climax to an t undergraduate career which included presidency ' of student council and the Union Presidents " Council plus participation in varsity golf.

A Danforth Fellowship also has gone to Tom Litzenburg, Washington & Lee '57, to Yale Divinity School.

Beta Fulbright Scholars for the coming year will include Ramon J Powell, Missouri '57, to study contemporary economics in Brussels, Bel-

H. Darrell Lance, Wabash '57 (see also Phi Beta Kappas) holds both: he expects to spend the coming year studying philosophy at the University of Strasbourg as a Wabash ' s ninth Fulbright Scholar , and to spend the next year at Colgate Rochester Divinity School as the first Danforth Fellow from Wabash .

George A. Roupe and John L. Wray, both Missouri ' 57, have received Atomic Energy Scholarships for graduate work in nuclear engineering at Stanford.

The two fraternity men among this year's winners of Phi Eta Sigma scholarships in national competition are Betas: Kenneth Dameron , Jr. , Ohio State '57 , won the Charles Manfred Thompson Scholarship, regarded as the No. 1 award. Larry C. Thompson , Willa-

mette '57, received the Scott H. Goodnighl Scholarship. Each pays $300 toward a first year of graduate work.

Stephen E. Blomgren, Wesleyan '57, a former chapter president, has received a Rockefeller Institute Fellowship in Chemistry.

Others advancing to graduate work on scholarships which have not been identified · ,v Jack McDermott, South Dakota '57, to University of Wisconsin; William Metzger, Western Reserve '57, to Columbia University law school. Max Stackhouse, DePauw '57, though awarded a Harvard Divinity school will be in the Netherlands on a foreign fellowship instead.

The Carnegie Chapter boasts three Westinghouse Scholars, John Olmsted, '59, David Thomas, '59, and John Berg, '60, plus a Sloan ' Scholar, Keith Springer, '60. Donald Roberts, Knox '58, holds a Western Electric Award.

At least six of Willamette's seniors won some • form of scholarship for graduate study: Ted Primrose to University of Arizona and Hugh Armstrong to Syracuse, both for psychology; Neil Causbie , varsity center, to Stanford for engineering; Tom Loree, to Wisconsin for physics; Martin Wolf , to University of Washington for economics, and Larry Thompson to ' Illinois for Chemistry.

George Williams Howar:d' III, Illinois '56, tied for the University of Illinois law school Harker prize for highest cumulative marks in law through the junior year.

Four of Kenyon's seniors received graduateschool scholarships: William Wainwright, Phi Beta Kappa , to University of Michigan for a degree in philosophy ; Donald Fischman, graduated with honors in biology, to Cornell Medical School; Thomas Jenkins, past chapter president, a National Science Foundation scholarship to Yale for mathematics; Ernest Norehad, a German Government Grant, to study medicine in that country.

When fall returning you 'll see again the campus nestled in the little town or like a citadel of light in the great city. me Etched on your mind will be each hall and building and to your ears will come the chime or !lle s troke of bells or clock. The old walls and paths will stretch before you. Going by you, as if in parade , will be the faces of professors and fellow students. Did I ever dress that way hoi and was I once that young? Were girls ever so gay and breathless? Was life ever so burdened ud. with a thousand things and yet so utterly carefree?

Jm When fall returning you'll see a score of large houses standing in a row

On their doors terl you'll see Greek letters, above their doors Coats of Arms and hanging from their poles 00 brightly colored flags . On the porches will be groups of young men apparently terribly busy and important but doing nothing .

ud . When fall returning you' ll remember the blue sky , white clouds and hot sun at noon and the chill of night and the bright stars overhead . By day there come the hoarse grunts from ing the practice field and the rattle of dishes thru open kitchen windows. In the evening there is 1vi the song of men as they swing down into town.

oa When fall returning you ' ll remember going thru " rush. " Who are these fellows-what's !rts his name-faces, faces, faces-it doesn't make much sense.

When fall returning you 'll recall a knock on your door , a little white card of invitation, a >m bid. Your walk to the chapter house, your greeting and your welcome . You move to the f e ·nearest mirror to look at a little white Grecian shield with three gold stars there in your ug lapel.

>gy When fall returning you'll go back to when you were pledged and it all began . You'll meet yourself coming up the road and remember one of the great hours of your life . 0 When fall returning you ' ll know once more why you and other men have loved Beta 10f 0 Theta Pi and why men love their college and chapter. You'll know why these things will go

on living as long as youth is youth.

Betas and 0 /1 K

Former President Washington Circle, Omicron Delta Kappa

BETAS figured importantly in the success of the 1957 national convention of Omicron Delta Kappa in St. Louis April11-13.

Outstanding Betas from the far corners of the land gathered (in what was undoubtedly the largest social fraternity group) with fellow

0 6. K's to renew their visions of leadership and service to the college world. Dr. G. Herbert Smith, DePauw '27, former president of Beta

Theta Pi and president of Willamette University, gave a major address at the convention luncheon. Dr. Smith was elected by the convention as the new member-at-large of the National Executive Committee of the society.

The Omicron Delta Kappa Society was founded Dec . 3 , 1914, at Washington & Lee Unive :·sity , Lexington , Va., by a group of fifteen student and faculty leaders. Among them Beta Thet a Pi claims James Edwin Bear, Wash . & Lee '1 5. In the tr a dition of the idealism of George Washington and Robert E . Lee , the founders stated that leadership of exceptional quality and versatility in college should be recognized , that represent a tive men in all phases of college life should cooperate in worthwhile endeavor, and that outstanding students and faculty members should meet on a basis of

common interest, understanding, and helpfulness.

The motives which guided the sprang from the desire to bring together in body for the general good of the institution , leaders from all parts of the college or university community. The success of the "0 6. K idea," an essential part of which is its joint faculty character and a determination to main tain a consistent and high standard of leadership recognition, has led to the of chapters, which are called circles, at colleges , now eighty-nine in number.

In his address , " Freedom in a Changing So- · ciety," Dr. Smith urged the men of 0 6. K to exert constant vigilance and leadership to serve our ideals of human liberty, in a changing America. He warned of the dangers , to freedom in "bigness" of government, labor · groups and business; increasing economic interdependence and concentration of power. Attempts at collectivized societies in search of economic freedom have failed to measure up even to their ideals , he said, because they must eliminate to some degree the motive force of personal freedom , which he termed is "Amer' ica's greatest resource."

THE BETA

Our student s, Dr. Sm ith asserted , are fully as ! e as th ey ever have been ; however , they must alize that any freedom is not unlimited. Linse shades into tyranny against others, he ggested, unless we see freedom as did John uart Mill : " . . . pursuing our own good in u own way , without interfering with the ghts of others. " The preservation of freedom volves the responsibility of seeing to it that

your neighbor is as f ree as you are, he explained.

The 1957 Convention of Om icron Delta Kappa was indeed a me a nin gful ex per ience for those students in a ttendance We of Wooglin 's clan left these days proud of the ideals of 0 K, and doubly proud to realize th a t the se ideals are mirrored so well in our brotherhood of Beta Theta Pi.

VHILE AN UNDERGRADUATE , I. Sieben, I owa State '34, compiled an impressive record ·f fraternity and campus activities , climaxed by he Tau Sigma chapter presidency in 1933-34. He demonstrated his well - rounded personality 'Y excelling in a wide variety of endeavors anging from the men's glee club and memberhip in Phi Mu Alpha music honorary to winling numerals in track and basketball. He was .ophomore class president , and as a senior he ¥on a contest for knowing the most persons on :ampus by first name.

A few years after graduation , Ronnie married tful· lone Alleman of Ames, whom he had met 1uring college, everything pointed toward a jers nappy, successful marriage. Now, twenty years one later , this prospect has been amply justified; for ion,. Ronnie's family was chosen as Iowa ' s candidate ver· for the All-American Family Award and reea," ceived honorable mention (equivalent to second ent· or third place) in national selections made June ai n· 1 at Miami, Fla.

The enthusiastic commendations of the Siebens ' friends and neighbors overwhelmingly supports their selection. Ronnie 's employers and the pastor of his church , were generous in their support .

While filling out the survey-application form for the All-America contest, the Siebens showed that they know what constitutes a good home when they wrote:

Home means parents and children living together in Christian love and devotion with a feeling of security, confidence and respect in and for each other in a hou s e that is comfortable, clean, adequately furni shed , in a location conducive to a good standard of living where family friends are always welcome.

Beloit

A new year begins , and the active underclassmen are back to make it one of the best for Chi chapter. There is an underclassman in every major sport , and we anticipate a goodly number of letterwinners representing Beta in the "B" Club. The Choraliers, Vesper Choir , and the college jazz and concert bands receive Beta support. Dad's Day, the Winter Carnival, and Winter Formal were all headed by Betas last year and these positions are in the offing the coming semester. John Mason, '58, is head arranger for the college jazz band, and acts as director of the theatre band, which supports the College Players William Kimes, ' 58, active for three years in college dramatics , is expected to be Beloit Players' leading man again this year. As in years past, the college publications are well staffed with Chi men. William Thuma, '59, and Michael Ford, '60, are business and advertising managers, respectively, for the college paper. James Clayton, '59, is advertising manager for Satyre, the college humor magazine. There is an underclass Beta for every honorary open to underclassmen. The senior class, holding over a "B" average, should spark Chi to an outstanding scholastic year.

The men of Chi are beginning another year , another year to work, to learn, to have fun . They look forward to a year of enjoying and fostering Beta ideals, brotherhood and spirit; and though they know that no man who wholeheartedly partakes of fraternity can adequately explain it, they know it gives meaning to their efforts.

Bethany

As we near our lOOth year on Bethany's campus, we look with pride upon the past and with confidence toward the future.

For approximately the 12th consecutive year Psi chapter has placed first among all Greek-letter organizations at Bethany in scholarship.

Much of Psi men's accomplishments is reported elsewhere in this issue. We open the year holding trophies from 1956-57 for Homecoming Float competition, softball and football. Nine of our group were members of Male Chorus , several others were selected to Kalon, student activities organization, and our tradition for singing was upheld in two

Gamma Iota 's entry into the Spring Semester was sparked by knowledge that we had placed second in scholarship for the first semester. Once again Beta teams entered almost every intramural sport, winning a League Championship in Ping Pong and the School Rifle Championship. Initiation and the Dorg following were held in the new House, bringing fourteen new Brothers into Beta's band.

Fall semester officers are Ronald F. Duba, '58, president; Douglas Stevenson, '58, vice president; Thomas Cunningham, ' 58, and Merritt M. WiiJ!ams, Jr., '58, rush co-chairmen; John W. Fulton , '59, executive secretary; Gary L. Davidson, '58 , pledge trainer; John Moss, '59, publicity chairman; , George Holland , '58, and Peter Andrews, '58, social co-chairmen.

Initiation for fourteen on March 1 brought us banquet speeches by two distinguished alumni: , Morris R. Ebersole, Cincinnati 1898, a founder of ihis chapter, and William B. McKesson, Oklahoma '1 7, district attorney for Los Angeles County.

Homecoming was another high point of the past year. Mal Smith , '57, was Homecoming chairman for OCTOBER, 1957

Our singing brought mixed results: everyone liked us at Greek Sing, but a serenade to the Chatham Girls almost put the whole Chapter in jail. It seems that someone had seen several carloads of boys headed for the school and had suspected the worst. President Robert Hammond, '58, reassured the police that all was well. Highlights of our spring social schedule were a "Favorite Cartoon Party" with the Thetas, an "Arabian Nights Party," and our Spring Formal at the Royal York.

Spring Carnival followed Easter by a mere two weeks, but House Manager Jacob Patla, '60, still managed to build the new basement wall. We also found time to get seven Brothers elected to Student Congress-Jack Peng , '58, John Wesner , '58, John Olmsted, '59, John Philbrick , '59, Jay Brant, '59, Peter Fisher, '60, and Joseph Matis, '60.

Beta Tau will be in greater need of alumni cooperation than u sual during 1957 fall rush, for the chapter finds itself in unusual position. We an s horthanded in what may be the biggest job in the chapter's history. A good alumni turn ' out would be helpful in terms of both our ho spitality and augmenting our evaluation ol rushees.

Quite a number of our actives and pledges are unable to return this year; many of those who are returning have meal jobs outside the house. Yel a new rush program will bring about 40 % .' ru s hee s through the house than ever before. We 1 expect to see 700 or more prospects with only 35 men to conduct the rush. th

In other respects , our report is more optimistic : M !he has received a minor facelifting , mcludmg considerable painting and various minor CI repairs, largely through the efforts of the members. !

The long-forgotten Beta Taurus, our chapter magazine , has been revived ; we hope it will be of particul a r interest to alumni.

fall with high hopes that Wooglin will upo.n us as much this year as in the past. Leadmg us this year will be Charles '58 , is also President of the lnterfratermty CounciL

The brothers heartily approve of the new system at Dartmouth , being used for the first time this fall Under the new system, rushees, after the final night of rushing , file their of fraternities in order of preference. These chOices are then matched against the Houses' lists Thus a student does not commit himself to one House, but has a chance at making several. He is ple?ged the first House on his list which also has listed htm. As a result fewer students are disappointed , and both the fraternities and the rushees avoid a great deal of the pressure of rushing. Also, no one knows just how a student actually chose , and this rules out possible post-rushing friction.

The Betas hope also to be able to theu climb in scholarship. We were up as htgh fifth last year. John Baldwin , '59, and George Seilstad, '59, both previous 5.0's (perfect all "A" lead the attack.

Each year Alpha Zeta chapter sees graduation of ry, at least one member whose departure seems a 11 severe blow to our group. Such a person is our outgoing chapter president, James P. Smith, '57 , whose accomplishments are covered in the Phi Beta Kappa article in this issue

Yet each year also sees the beginnings of new leadership traits among one or more underclassmen; and if we're regretting the loss of a Jim Smith , we can look hopefully toward such as Alvin L. A.lrn, '60, who in his freshman year helped revive Greek World and became its editor; he also is a member of the Student Board of Governors.

Another outstanding Beta is Harold E. Moore, 158, second Beta president of Interfraternity Council in three years. Moore and William Heiss, '59, are in 0 d K. John Raeder, '60, was freshman vice president, and John A. Wilson, '60, is on the !Board of Governors.

It's definite , and no longer a prediction: Iota's new chapter house is under way, and scheduled to be completed by mid winter. Alumni and active chapter .participated in formal ground-breaking ceremomes June 8 as first step in building of the Georgian-style house.

Iota had a second semester which points to contmued success. We won the Fraternity Song Con-

test for the fifth year in seven. We added a trophy for the intramural tennis championship. Thomas A. Bohlsen, '57, and Joseph L. Kreitzman, '57, made us the only society with two recipients of the 1957 Hanover Alumni Award, based on scholarship , character and community participation. Bohlsen also won the John Finley Crowe citation, nameu for the Beta first president of Hanover and given to the senior demonstrating the highest Christian character, scholarship , leadership and social responsibility.

Edward N. Ghearing, '58, was awarded the scholarship pin for his 2.8 first-semester average (basis 3.0). Ed is a member of Gamma Sigma Pi, Hanover's scholastic honorary, and of the social science honorary; he also won the Goodrich Oratorical Prize

The Hanover Beta Women's Club, organized October 22, 1932, will celebrate its silver anniversary this year. This group is entitled to recognition for its generosity and persistant interest in the Chapter.

At Spring Initiation Banquet May 5, Iota recognized Richard M. Johnson, '24, as its outstanding alumnus of the year. He is the president of the First National Bank of Madison, Ind. Also recognized for outstanding service to the chapter was Roy 0. Price , Bethany, '29, who has given freely of his time and talents in assisting the chapter the past two years.

The Chapter made the following awards to their · graduating senior members: Intramural Award, John Tenant; Activities Award, Bohlsen, and the · Ramsdale Award, to the man representing the · "typical Beta," Richard Cira.

We here at Iota feel that considering everything, we have had a very successful year. We are, how- · ever, looking even with greater promise to next • year when all but ten men will return, to make good the challenge of Ralph Anderson, '58, president: "What a man derives from a fraternity is , dependent upon how he interprets the whole idea ' and purpose of what it is trying to do."

If the term "number one fraternity on campus" · really means anything concrete, Gamma Gamma f chapter believes it earned that honor during the past year and hopes to hang on to it through this term.

Biggest claim to that title is based on the election of David Maxey, '58 , as student body president. Maxey in a hard-fought c a mpaign in April bested a runner-up Greek-independent coalition candidate by 75 votes. Maxey was the Greek candidate.

Long active in chapter and campus affairs, Maxey has held several chapter offices and was chairman of three major campus projects. Last year he was a member of the student body Executive Board.

Notable improvement was characteristic of Pi during the past year. A general upswing was evident , and much of the success can be accredited to the able and energetic leadership of our retiring president, Albin B Hayes , '57.

In scholarship, at mid-year , we rose from eleventh to fifth among the 30 fraternities. Our fall pledge class took the campus -w ide pledge class scholarship title.

Pi won intramural football and basketball league titles , fini shing a close second in track

Ne a rly every facet of campus activities was represented by the men of Pi. We boasted two officers each in tile Freshman and Sophomore classes. Stephen Riggins , '59, was Secretary of Student Affairs , a top office. Joseph Denny, '58, was chairman of the YMCA Steering Committee. We had ten v arsi ty lettermen and six members of the Singing Hoo siers , I U.'s fine men's glee club.

?i h a d men prominent in 1:-oth the Young Demo-

crats and the Young Republicans Clubs , and this fall it appears the leadership of both clubs may well in the hand s of Betas.

Our three outstanding social events of the year were the Honeymoon Dance in Octob.er, the Miami Triad in April and the Underworld m May Each afforded opportunity to work together creatively as in the case of our Homecom10g dtsplay, nam'ed among the top five. Keith B arnett, :57, won a jitterbug contest at the Fall Carmval armdst • the hoarse cheering of his Beta rooting section. One of our most successful social events was Beta 1 Mothers Weekend in February. Forty -one Moms attended, making it the largest in our history. .-

The chapter is proud o.f the donations I for Bloomington's Amencan Cancer Soctety dnve, co -sponsored by Pi Beta Phi and netting nearly $1 ,000. Equally notable was our winning the annual "Bleed the Greeks" contest for the third consecutive year as more than 60% of the brothers donated blood.

Chapter house improvements included completion of a beautiful new president's room. Fall officers are William Swift, '58, president; Dean Gallinatti , '58, vice president; Arnold Duemling, '59, recording secretary. Twenty-one men have been pledged for the fall class, and we anticipate an even better year. (BRUCE

Yes, they were one of Alpha Chi's most outstanding classes. Together "the thirteen" amassed six presidencies, two vital chairmanships, eleven varsity letters, and two major co-captaincies. e

They held three of the four class offices- president , vice president, and treasurer-and two of the top three positions on campus-chairman of the Honor Commission and chairman of the Student c Activities Commi ss ion. Their scholarship was out- o standing-seven will go on to do graduate work, sl six will become doctors. Over one-third were members of upperclass honoraries , including cp K B, 0 6. K , and Who's Who

They led us to football, basketball, baseball , tennis, and cross country championships; helped us retire two interfraternity athletic trophies; and guided us toward our interfraternity singing championship. They sang, they wrote , they were active. The quality of their contributions seems unquestionable. Now each has gone his separate way--education, occupation , and the armed forces-but still united by the bond of the four good years spent as brothers of Alpha Chi.

But the underclassmen have returned. We are also sports-minded. There is an underclassman on every major athletic team. In fact, prospects for ten letter winners this year are excellent. Participation in intramural sports will remain tops-we came in a tight sec ond last year (by five points) after winning for two straight years We will be out to win our fifth straight football champions hip.

We are also sc holarship-minded. There is an

inderclass Beta in ten of the the eleven honor mcieties open to underclassmen. We sing. Several Betas are members of the University Glee Club. We write , too Our number includes the managing editor and assistant business manager of the school paper, the business manager of the school yearbook, and five more staff members. We are active.

Seven more are officers of the dormitories, the Booster Club, the Board of Intramural Athletics, Delta Phi Alpha, and Phi Lambda Upsilon.

But this is only a part of college and fraternity eta life. Brothers always enjoy time out from indim s vidual or small ·group participation in college activities to sing harmony around the green and :ed white checkered piano in the basement, build ve , Homecoming decorations and floats, date girls, rly have parties, work around the house-and sleep. tn· But most of all, the brothers of Alpha Chi eagerly >n· absorb the feeling of security found in the true !rs brotherhood, spirit, and ideals of the fraternity.

And although they may talk of activity quantity, le- they know that it's the quality that counts-that aU gives meaning to their efforts.

an Like other college men, we come to college to 1g , learn, to work, and to have fun. The thirteen .ve brothers that graduated did just those things. Hoplie kins Betas look forward to continuing the tradition. (ROBERT PARTRIDGE, '58, Corresponding Secretary)

Knox

Xi chapter of Beta Theta Pi, Illinois ' oldest fraternity chapter, looks forward to new success in its 103rd at Knox College. Despite the loss of an outstanding senior class, the return of new initiates, four pledges, and talented sophomores and juniors indicates that the Knox Betas will again provide leadership and enjoy the same chapter spmt that marked the '56-'57 academic year.

Gone are the editor of the Knox Student, senior class president, college marshal, chairman of the chapels committee, several members of the distinguished President's Roundtable, captains of the baseball, and tennis squads, and many others mstrumental in school activities and athletics and promoting the friendly feeling in the house.

Typical of the new senior class is James Stowell ' 58 , excelling in academics, athletics and activities: President of the Honor Board la st year and continuing as a full-time member of the elite 8-man group, he is a Carbide Scholar, maintaining a average; IS football co-captain and will be af ter his 7th, 8th, and 9th collegiate letters.

Ronald Streibich , ' 58 , as athletic publicity rector holds the highest-paying student position at Knox. His sophomore year Streibich was editor of the Student, winning the Bo•ok.felllo•w;l Journalism Prize. He is a returning letterman from the championship golf team.

These men are representative of Xi's tions, with every man in the house participating some activity or sports. Although we have varsity men than any other fraternity, we won of eight intramural titles: both basketball leagues 1 softball, volleyball and bowling. This exemplifies cJ the fine chapter spirit and unification present last N. year and destined to continue in 1957-58.

Beta Rho represented itself extremely well this past school year in both interschool competition and academic standing. Leading the Men's fraternities one of the three terms and ranking in the top five both terms enabled us to keep the Miami Triad Scholarship trophy for another year.

For the second year in a row Beta Rho has done well in inter-school competitive events The annual Canoe Fete, one of the main events of Junior Weekend on the Oregon Campus , produced many beautiful, extravagant floats. This year Beta won third place with a replica of the Eiffel Tower more than 30 feet high It had a revolving center piece which depicted the four seasons of the year.

Our song team won the all-campus sing under direction of Robert Roy, '58, singing "No Man Is An Island."

Spring term also brought several physical improvements to the house and its surroundings. Under the guidance of Paul Messer, '59, Beta had several all-house work functions to improve the outside iippearance of the hou se. Beta Rho and the rest of the University of Oregon campus are eagerly awaiting the proposed reconstruction of the Mill Race which runs past the house.

Will to Win. Texas Style

THE STORY of that Loving Cup is a spirited example of Beta "will to win." Some time ago, our chapter was in hot water grade-wise. Our District Chief, Walter J. Allan, Colorado '22, was boiling mad and deeply disgusted. One day when Walt was speaking to the brothers and things looked as though they couldn't possibly get worse, he said, "Men, I'll bet you, with odds a thousand-to-one, that within two years Beta Omicron Chapter of Beta Theta Pi will no longer possess a charter."

Several brothers shifted uneasily in their chairs, and then it happened. One by one ten pennies were placed upon a table in the middle of the room. The Betas were taking that bet! At a thousand-to-one odds, Walt Allan could lose one hundred dollars-or win a dime.

Several months later, Beta collected. What was done with the money? Well, Walt had the hundred dollars delivered into our hands, no strings attached. A month later we received the

Beta Omicron Loving Cup with Celia Buchan, 1956-57 ' Texas University Sweetheart; George Schneider, '58, Texas chapter president ; Martiele May, Southern Meth· · odist University Sweetheart, and William Cassidy, Texas '57.

Gilbert, '58, co-editor of school newspaper and chairman of student affairs committee , and Lee Wishing, head of freshman orientation.

Thanks to the alumni association, the brothers are looking forward to coming back to a redecorated alumni room. Much credit is also due Barry Mynter, '58, for a good job as house manager.

The brothers would like to express their apfor OCTOBER, 1957

The spring semester closed with a resounding splurge when the chapter staged its annual formal at Palm Springs. Our social season also included a joint exchange of Betas and Thetas of both USC and UCLA at the Ventura County ranch of Alan Ladd, Jr. , '59.

The usual informal beach parties, will precede 1957 rush , being organized carefully by Rush Chairman Charles Dillingham, '59.

Reorganization of our Fathers Club contributed materially to solving our problem of delinquent accounts. Shortly after its reinstitution, this group reduced the number of such accounts from 26 to four. This direct contact between chapter members and parents, conducted on a sympathetic counseling basis, has proved extremely effective in practically all cases.

Washington & Jefferson

The third time is a charm! For the third consecutive year Gamma Chapter won the interfraternity sing cup and established itself as the "singin'est" group on campus.

The spirit that Gamma men displayed in the I.F.C. Sing carried over into intramurals as the chapter fielded an undefeated basketball squad and

took a close second place in intramural track.

Gamma Chapter hosted the District VII Conclave of Beta Theta Pi, a weekend affair, which was a fine success. The success, however, lay , not principally in the committee meetings, or the general meeting or the speeches. The real success of the conclave was in meeting, many for the first time, the other brothers in our Di strict VII.

Nine men graduated in June; to compensate for the loss , Gamma pledged seven freshmen, among whom is Ralph Fennell, president of the class of 1960.

Among the social activities of the year, the Mothers D ay program was the standout. A buffet luncheon was served to one hundred and twenty parents and guests and choral entertainment was provided by the champion chorus.

Gamma Chapter is advancing with Betas in key campus positions. The highlight of the Gamma advancement campaign is the pending drive for a new chapter house.

This 1956-57 year has seen Gamm a clean up its financial problems and the active brothers are now aiming for improved scholastic standing and better living conditions. We're moving up! Watch us climb! (JAMES M. KIEHL, '59, Corresponding Secretary)

Wittenberg

This has been a year of solid achievement for Alpha Gamma. We have been, and are, at the top of the fraternity ladder.

Although purposely not the largest fraternity on campus, we received more first place bids last fall than any other fraternity.

During the past year, Alpha Gamma received two unusual honors. The Springfield Chamber of Commerce asked us to construct a nativity scene for the giant esplanade in Springfield. We also were asked by Wittenberg College to act as hosts for prospective fall freshmen.

Three of Wittenberg's Big Four trophies are IAJpha Gamma's this year: The Varsity Night trophy, for the second consecutive year; the Hornecorning Decoration trophy and the IFC Scholarship trophy awarded to us for the year in June after

we led all Wittenberg fraternities two consecutive semesters.

In campus activities Betas are everywhere. A Beta was president of Student Senate the past year, and Betas are presidents or past presidents of four honoraries. One of the three men tapped for Blue Key was a Beta; we have two in Pick and Pen, junior honorary.

We are very well represented in all varsity sports, with a freshman on the football starting lineup and a Beta as captain of the golf team. The track team is also well represented. We are especially well represented in basketball with three Betas on the starting lineup; one is captain and another was elected to the Ohio Conference All-Star Team.

Alpha Gamma is, with this fine record as impetus, looking forward to an even better year ahead . (TYLER PHILLIPS, '60, Publicity Director)

Track

The 1957 track season was the greatest for Betas in many years: three national collegiate champions , one of them the first American to break four minutes for the mile; new Beta records in three events, near-records in several others , and conference champions galore.

Donald P Bowden, California '58, now being hailed as the greatest American distance runner, must rank among the top Beta athletes of all time Only a short time after his startling 3:58.7 mile for a new American citizens' record in the Pacific AAU meet, he turned in the second-fastest 880 of all time to win the NCAA crown at Dallas in 1:47.2, only fourtenths off the pending world record posted by Tom Courtney in a non-collegiate performance.

Bowden's mile was all the more remarkable in that he had not established himself in the 1,500 meters at the Olympics (because of an injury) and because he had been concentrating so intently on the 880 that he had competed in the mile only twice all season. We cannot summarize the entire season of every man to be listed in this round up of spring sports, but Bowden's season is worth recording:

Won the 880 against the Olympic Club early in March in 1 : 50.5; against UCLA with a new school record of 1 : 49.7, also running a 48second leg on a winning mile relay team; matched his own record against USC; against Stanford , two wins at 1:50 and 4:09.9 plus a 48 2 leg to help win the relay ; won Pacific Coast Conference 880 championship with a PCC record 1:47.8 , at the time the third fastest half-mile ever run; turned in the 4:01.6 di stance medley anchor lap which convinced him he could break four minutes, at the Coliseum Relays ; ran his 3:58.7 in the Pacific AAU, beat the great Arnie Sowell in 1:49.2 in the California AAU and set his 1:47 .2 record in winning the NCAA title.

His lap times in that 3:58.7 mile, running his own race virtually all alone, were 60.4, 60. 9 , 59.7 and 57.7. Bowden is only 20, possibly five years from his peak as a distance runner. He still is carefully spacing his efforts at the mile. This writer would not be surprised to see this splendid Beta lower the mile record to 3:56 or better, and we blandly predict he will break 1:46 for the half. According to his coach. Brutus Hamilton, Don has unlimited possibilities.

But he was not the only Beta in the limelight at the National Collegiate championships.

David G. Owen, Michigan '57, president of hi< chapter, sixth man in history to top 59 feet it the shotput with his indoor performance las winter, boosted his own Beta record to 59-5Y<J to win the NCAA crown. Albert Urbanckas Illinois '58, tied for first in the high jump af 6-71/2, close to his own Big Ten record oJ 6-834 and not too far from the Beta record ot 6-9lh held by Don Boydston, Oklahoma Stall '42. Jack Morris, Oregon '58, placed sixth ir a 220-yard low hurdles final which tied the world record.

Owen showed his competitive spirit bj achieving his win and his only 59-plus heavE of the NCAA on his last effort, a rarity in this event. His season included a Drake Relay! record of 57-5lh, an Illinois Stadius record of and additional championships of the Ohio Relays and Central Intercollegiates, hav· ing won the event in the Michigan State Relay1 and the Michigan AAU as well as the Big Ten meet indoors.

Like Owen, Urbanckas is both indoor and , outdoor 1957 Big Ten champion in his event, setting a Big Ten record of 6 -8 34 indoors. II must be suggested that although his best is three-quarters of an inch shy of Beta record, Urbanckas has been a more con· sistent jumper. He set meet records of 6-7 against Northwestern , 6-85/s in a quadrangular with Wisconsin, Ohio State and Purdue, and 6-6% against Michigan.

Morris , who also was a brilliant back in the 1956 football season , had set a school record of 23.3 to win the Pacific Northern Division Conference crown; third in the 100 that day he was credited with a 9.5 wind-aided 100 and a 9.8 without wind during the season.

Others who rank as standouts and potentia l Beta-record threats for next year include Gene O'Connor, Kansas State '58, a :14.1 hurdler. threatening the : 14.0 mark held by J. R. Tate, Oklahoma State '41; Carrol (Tuffy) Hamilton , Hanover '58, whose broad jump of 25-51/z ranks second in Beta records only to the 25-11 mark of Olympic Champion Edward B! Hamm , Georgia Tech '30, which stood as a world mark for several years; William Stack , Yale '58, and Fred Cooper, Yale '59, both re · spectably close to the Beta record hammer throw record of F. N. Connor, Yale '31 (117 ft. in ), and Gene L. Estes, Oregon '59, whose season best of 157-9 in the discus was only three inches shy of the Beta mark set by J. S. Robertson, Iowa State '53.

O'Connor showed : 14.1 three times-in Texas Relays, for a second sharing the winner's time; the Houston Meet of Champions, which

Hamilton 's versatility gives him claim to being the season's best all-round Beta track man. Second at the Drake Relays in the broad jump despite a groin injury, he recovered for · · such performances as the Ball State-Louisville triangular meet when he jumped 24-10, set a college record of 179-8V2 in the javelin, or the Hoosier Conference meet, when he jumped 24-7%, threw the javelin 174-10 and ran the 100 in 10.2 for three wins.

Quartermilers include Walter Wolfe, Denison ' 58, :50.7.

The crop of middle-distance runners is impressive, even by comparison with Bowden 's achievements. Larry Graham, Oklahoma State '57, won the Missouri Valley Conference 880 crown at 1:56.6, and that time also was reported for Jame s Polito, California '60, in a meet against Stanford freshmen. Jerry Maples, Nebraska pledge, was on the quartet which set a new national freshman record of 7:36 .8 for the two-mile relay. Other half-milers include Thomas Burch, Oklahoma State; Richard Anderson, Hanover '60, and David Mulford, Lawrence '59.

It would be fun to watch competition among the best Beta talent in the high jump, one of the most unpredictable of events. Besides the stratospheric performance of Urbanckas, half a dozen others could be considered "bunched" -Ronald Maris, Illinois '58, with a best performance of 6-334; Carroll Hamilton, 6-31;2; Miami's Rieke , who did 6-3 indoors and 6-2 outdoors; Charles T. McHugh, Wesleyan '59, a new college record of 6-2 34; Gary Shearer , Purdue '57, 6-2.

Information on other weight men is particularly sketchy: John B. Winsor, Lawrence '58, Midwest Conference discus champion distance unspecified; Arthur Baker, Denison '57, Phi Beta Kappa and former chapter president , 149-7 for the discus; Thomas Lagerquist, Stanford '60, a freshman dual-meet winner at 133-3; Royal Moore, Stanford '60, winning the shot at • 45-4Yz in the same meet against California ; • James Stowell, Knox '58, second in the Midwest ' Conference javelin; Gary T. Schmalle, Willamette '57, reported as a shotputter.

Other polevaulters include Herbert Young, UCLA '59, credited with 13-6; Jack Fanning, Washington State '59, fourth in the Northern 1 Division meet at 13 ft.; Dwight E.

Amherst's Little Three champions included William Ziegenfus, ' 57, one of the leading batters of Western Massachusetts, and Rolf Eastman, '59, pitchers. James Legette , North Carolina '59, batted .314, led his team in stolen bases , had three triples.

Albin Hayes, Indiana '57, a chapter president, was a hard-luck pitcher: shutting out Notre Dame, he lost 1-0 to Iowa on four hits and lost a no-hitter to Ohio State, 2-0 . Hugh Springer , Oregon '60, pitcher, won all his games in freshman play. Tom Moore, Washington & Lee '59, outfielder, hit over .300. William Price, Hanover '58, consistent .300 hitter, became allconference first baseman a second time.

Swimming

Among the many fine Beta swimmers of the 1957 season Co-captain Albert M. Wiggins, Jr., Ohio State_ '57, was, as might be expected, the most outstanding. The big Buckeye captain won his favorite events-the 200 yard individual medley and the 200 yard backstroke-in every meet and usually anchored the winning 400 yard free style relay team.

At the Big Ten Conference meet Wiggins set a new world's record of 54.3 seconds in the 100 yard butterfly and also won the 100 yard I backstroke in 57.6 seconds. In a dual meet with Wisconsin AI tried the 100 yard freestyle for the first time, setting a new pool record of 49.9, the fastest official time ever turned in by a Beta. His best time for the 200 yard medley was 2:07.6, and he swam an easy 2: 11.6 backstroke against Illinois.

It was in the Illinois meet that Wiggins did the greatest work of his brilliant career. Starting the last event, the 400 yard freestyle relay, the Illini were leading 47-46 and needed only to win that event to break a long Buckeye winning streak. When Wiggins took off as anchor it appeared that Karpinchik, the speedy Illini anchor man, held too great an advantage; but Wiggins steadily pulled up and with a tremendous final burst finished five yards in front as the near-capacity audience cheered wildly. We do not know his time for that hundred, but it seems almost certain that the former Olympic star must have done 49 flat or perhaps a shade under.

Competing under the colors of the Coca Cola Club of Cincinnati, Wiggins won the Senior National A.A.U. 100 yard freestyle championship whipping the finest sprinters in the country in 49.9 seconds. Wiggins also defended his title in the 100 yard butterfly , winning easily in 55 seconds flat.

Don H. Nichols and Roger N. Harmon, both Michigan State '59, were on the Michigan State relay team which set a new NCAA record of for OCTOBER, 1957

3:50 for the 400 medley in an unusual dead beat. Earlier, they had helped the Spartans clinch the Big Ten crown by winning that event in the conference meet. Harmon also placed third in the NCAA 100 and 200 butterfly. These two swam regularly on the medley team which defeated all rivals in dual competition, setting a new record in almost every meet. Nichols won the 200 yard backstroke against Indiana (2:15.8) and Wisconsin (2:13.3) and placed second against Northwestern, and Ohio State. At the Big Ten Conference meet he won fourth in the 100 and 200 yard backstroke races.

Harmon won the 200 yard butterfly in meets with Ohio State (2: 19.6) and Wisconsin (2: 18.5) and placed second in a very fast 2:15.8 race against Indiana. At the Big Ten meet he came in 4th in the 100 yard butterfly

Roger Anderson, Yale '59, lowered the Beta records for the 220 and 440 freestyle by four and three seconds, respectively, to 2:05.5 and 4:39.9. He also was clocked at :48.6 and :48.4 in freestyle relay laps.

Dean R. Taylor , Michigan State ' 59, didn't appear until late in the season. Against Wisconsin , switching from his favorite sprints, be won the 440 yard freestyle in 4:54.9.

Robert L. Hunt, Illinois '58 , leading scorer for his team, enjoyed unusual success in dual competition. He won the 200 yd. breast stroke or the 200 yd. butterfly against Loyola , Iowa ,

As a freshman, he won the Kandahar Downhill, plus the Ski Meister trophies at St. Lawrence ' s Snow Bowl and Winter Carnival.

Ohio State and Minnesota. At the Big Ten meet be finished fourth in the 200 yd breast stroke. Hunt has a best time of 2: 21.7 in the butterfly event and 2: 26 .2 in the breast stroke .

At the beginning of the season Thomas H. Walker , Illi no is ' 59 , was used almost exclusively in rel ays, but as the sea son progressed , the big sophomore began to show his versatility and soon we found him scoring in various other events . At the Big Ten meet he surprised us by fin is hing fifth in the 100 yd. breast stroke. Tom has done 2: 20.4 for the 200 yd medley and 2 : 30 .9 in the breast stroke.

Beca us e Yale is so talent-laden that some of it s standouts swim only for exhibition in most dual meets , we didn't find the name of Charles M . ( Deed) Hardin , Yale , ' 58 , in meet summ ar ies until the chips were down. But it was no surpri se to find him winning the Eastern ICAA 200 bre as tst roke in 2:25.3 , placing fourth in the 100 , then protecting his right to All-American honor s aga in by placing fifth in the NCAA 200 bre as tstroke

The winning of Oregon State ' s first Northern Con ferenc e te a m championship was the occa-

sion for a transcontinental telephone report from Gamma Mu chapter, which had a big role in the victory. George E. Claussen , '59 ; won the 50 in :24.3 and placed fourth in the 100 freestyle one spot behind Co-Capt. Roy K. Oness , '57. Robert K.

Oness, Slawson and Claussen were on the winning 400-yard free -' style relay team, which holds the school record of 3:38.1, and Oness and Slawson were on the winning medley relay team. Although we have no post-season report on it , at one time in the 1957 season Oregon States school records for the 50 and 100 were held by Claussen and Oness , respectively , with Slawson, a former captain , accounting for both the butterfly and in -. dividual medley records.

As Miami placed second in the Mid-American Conference meet , Wallace (Skip) McCallum , '59, a former high school All-American , placed third at 2:21.5 in the 200 backstroke and Larry Dill , '59 , fourth in the 100 breaststroke . Robert E. Miracle, Miami '58, diver, al so scored consistently in dual meets.

THE BETA THETA PI

The Michigan Chapter pledged two of the greatest All-American high school swimmers of recent years John Smith, set a National Interscholastic record of 58.7 in the 100 back stroke (short course); was ranked No. 2 in the nation close behind a lad who made the 1956 Olympic team, and indeed made a strong bid for that team , placing fourth in the finals of the 100 meter backstroke in 1.07, just out of the money. G. Leigh Corby set a new National prep school record of 23.4 in the 50 yd . freestyle ranking All-American No. 1 in the 50, No . 2 in the 100 at :52.5 and No . 7 in the 200 at 2:03.9 .

Thomas M . Alderson, Northwestern '59 , placed second or third in the 50 and 100 yd freestyle races in almost every dual meet during the past season. He was also anchor man on a strong 400 yard medley relay team that beat Chicago, Wisconsin and others.

David Calkin, Florida '59 , voted his team 's most improved swimmer, scored at least one first in every dual meet and gained two firsts in the National AAU championships at Daytona.

Ted FitzSimons, Kenyon '51, graduated holding several pool and conference records and had been an important factor in Kenyon ' s four consecutive Ohio Conference championships . Kenyon's team included Grant Mason and David Borman, both ' 59.

Last ye a r's exceptional crop of swimmers among freshman pledges would indicate some fine future performance. Nebraska had Charles Arizuma , scholastic all-American the past two years from Punahou , Hawaii, and Ronald Bucklin and Ted Dewey, point-winners in the 1956 state meet. Stanford had Bruce Hamilton , 1956 110-yard backstroke All-American for Philips Exeter Academy; Tim Timken , 1956 breaststroke All-American for Philips Andover, and Tom Peterson, 1956 California breaststroke champion. Ohio State pledged seven fine freshman swimmers : Thomas Wall , twice AllAmerican, with marks of : 23.5 and : 53 for the sprints; Louis Schueneman, freestyle and medley, and William Roebuck , backstroke , both All-American; John Crum, James Fernamberk and Andrew Stevens, freestyle , and William Smith , butterfly.

a former Wisconsin singles champion, is rated good varsity material for 1958.

Wrestling

Although unable to cover the work of our Beta wrestlers as closely as in other years, we know many of our representatives piled up enviable records in 1956-57.

Memorial to Beta Champion

The name of the late George J. Feuerbach, Lehigh '52, three-time Eastern Intercollegiate Wrestling Association champion, is memonalized by a new trophy to be presented annually to Lehigh's most valuable varsity wrestler.

Lt. Feuerbach was killed in June , 1956, when his Air Force jet fighter exploded on at McGhee -Tylson Air Force Base near Knoxville, Tenn. The trophy was presented in his memory by his widow, Mrs. Mary Sadler Feuerbach, at the Lehigh-Navy dual meet February 23.

That night two Betas, Leon M. Harbold and Edward Hamer, both '59, contributed wins to a 22-6 Lehigh victory which was one of only two setbacks suffered all season by Navy and its

great Beta coach, Raymond H. Swartz, Oklahoma State '30.

A replica of the memorial trophy will be awarded permanently to each year's recipient. George Feuerbach won Eastern titles at 128 pounds in 1950, 130 in 1951 and 137 in 1952. As Lehigh's captain in 1952, he was voted to the outstanding wrestler in the EIWA tournament. For three seasons his varsity dual-meet record was 24 wins and a draw in 29 matches. , He was sophomore class secretary, junior class vice president, a member of the American Society for Metals, Lehigh Metallurgical Society, Arnold Air Society and Brown Key Society, graduating with a degree in metallurgical engineering. He was with the Bethlehem Steel Company five months before reporting for Air Force active duty.

Cultivation of the Trigger-finger, Grif Style

In offering pre-season dope on football, the O klahoma Aggies' Sports Publicity Man, Oti s Wile, Oklahoma State '26, gets a step away from the stock press-radio brochure by preparing an "Aggie Almanac." In the 1956 version, you'll find such bright fillers as this yarn about Art Griffith, Oklahoma St a te '24, who retired last winter after a brilliant record as the Aggies' wrestling coach:

Griffith is o notable hunter and fisherman and is the best squirrel gun in Payne county. He can't bear to see sh e lls wasted, either. Wrestler Paul McDaniel kept begging the coach to take him squirrelin'. They stopped at the head of a creek fork and Grif explained the art Shortly a bough dipped in the top of a cottonwood, and Griffith ' s rifle spoke. He picked up the squirrel and said, " Now, Paul, I' ll circle the tree. You stand motionless, and one will come edging around the limb, watching me on the ather side "

Presently McDaniel fired. Excitedly, he banged away five more times. Gril came walking back.

"Okay, let's go home," the coach said.

"Why, we just gat here!" says McDaniel.

"No use being a hog," Grif said. "With that one I killed and the six you shot , we got a mess. "

Lehigh's Beta Wrestlers: Kneeling, Leon M. Harrold, '59, 130-lb., and Thomas P. Deppe, '57, 123-lb.; standing, David W. Bates, '57, 137-lb.; Edward J. Hamer, '59, 167-lb ., and Charles F. Eck, '58, 137-lb Champion Feuerbach

And This Was

BETAS CLOSELY ACQUAINTED with the late H. Sheridan Baketel, Boston & Dartmouth 1895, have been gratified to share a review of his life in the form of a 48-page privately-published memorial. It has been distributed to associates of his fraternal and professional life, to the Administrative Office Library and to the chapters of Beta Theta Pi by his son, H. Sheridan Baketel , Jr. , Dartmouth '2 0 .

This is a reminiscence, rather than a monument. It contains photos of significant episodes in his life, and it records the high points of interests that appear to amount to distinctly separate c aree rs until one realizes that his many facts were after all integrated by enthusiasm, loyalty and the urge to share.

It records as a major interest more than 65 years' hearty participation in Beta Theta Pi , as

vestors, in the community, "at the market place" and "for the greate.r. good" w.ith briefer summaries of 450 other proJects. ProJects range from Ivory soap sculpture in the schools to "making the coffee break an American institution ." Author, director of public relations of Motorola , Inc., has taught public relations at Northwestern University evening division and also is co-author of Effective Public Relations.

Ouest Continues

ONE oF THE MOST industrious, preoccupied and productive individuals in Chicago for the past two generations has always made .or found time to attend any general Beta functwn.

He is Laurence Hampson Mayers, Bethany ' 09. Dr. Mayers always shows up, to the cation of the host of brethren who are familiar with his distinguished career and his social graces. He adds to the lustre of any Beta dinner or meeting.

Dr. Mayers has had a truly eventful career. Recently Maurice Shevlin, turf expert of the Chicago Tribune , wrote for the Tribune Sunday Magazine an article detailing just one of the astonishing research achievements of Laurence Mayers: his discovery of the possibility. of determining the exact condition of a runnmg horse, an any day , by a blood analysis in the morning-an item of intense interest to professional horsemen all over the world.

The horse blood tests had general publicity in 1925. They created immediate and excited interest in the horse-racing profession. Such a test, made in the morning, would indicate accurately what the horse's performance was going to be in a race that afternoon. The Aga Khan, one of the world ' s most extensive racing stable owners , sent his head trainer and three other investigators to this country to study the Mayers findings. The Khan offered Dr. Mayers $90 ,000 to spend four month s at the royal stables. The offer was declined with thanks; Dr. Mayers had more important things to do, locally. Then Warren Wright , the Kentucky race-horse breeder, learned about the theory from the Khan. He promptly offered the doctor $10,000 a year for an indefinite stay at his stables .

Most of Dr. Mayers success, has of course been in fields closer to medical practice generally. He has submitted theses for the Nobel Prize and won citations four times, between 1926 and 1945. He has the distinction of having been the youngest practicing physician ever listed in the American Who 's Who.

One of hi s most eminent and influential achievements was the production of a book in 1934, What We Are And Why. It received enthusiastic reviews in every medical journal in the country and probably had the widest

sale of any book of its type in history.

This book Jed to other intensive research into the general subject of what ails humans directly, into determining the fitness of viduals for various professions and occupatwns. Part of the findings were reviewed by Dr. Mayers in an article in The Schools, "Weeding Out Emotional Defectives from the Teaching Ranks." . . .

This was a new and exhaustive exammatwn of a subject vital to general education. It drew a great deal of comment and approbation in school journals. The Executive's Policy Letter, of Princeton, N.J., issued a special four-page bulletin discussing the theory. It said, in part: The Background Situation; According. to Dr. Mayers, drove profession into deterrrunmg how mfectwns originate and how to prevent them. The next step after the . of infection was to deterrrune what condition persons were in who. the. infection. This involved ascertammg what vital organs were impaired and the amount of dam.age to them, particularly from the standpomt of longevity.

Coincident with the above, Dr. Mayers developed a questionnaire, based on their medical history, for applicants for positions where personal peculiarities and the prospect of an average length of life were important. These findings are of intense current interest to corporations and other large employers. Many of them have adopted the Mayers examination plan to help weed out defectives in advance.

Through his tireless activity over the years , Dr. Mayers achieved an unusual background and knowledge, leading to the above. While still a student at Cleveland, he supported himself through a job as an employe of the Newburg hospital for the criminally insane. The abuse of the inmates by sadistic officials, he saw there, led to his first writing on the subject. He offered an article to the editor of the Cleveland Plain Dealer headed "An Insane Institution." The editor asked him whether be didn't really mean "An Institution For the Insane."

"After you read the article," young Mayers replied, "you will know why I beaded it in that way."

64
.Y T H E B E T A T H E T A PI /

The editor read the article, agreed imtediately that the heading was accurate and Jt , and paid the young student liberally.

The experience at Newburg led to some irther direct investigation of prison conditions. 1 1921 he visited the Joliet penitentiary in linois, twice a month, at the request of the tother of young Loeb of the notorious Leo- Jd-Loeb case, for examination and counseL t this famous prison Dr. Mayers did some tore research on the conduct of convicts and eepers, particularly from the sadistic or sexeviation standpoint. As a result he was given letter by Warden Ragen of Joliet and, with it, tade a tour of the worst prisons in France , 1ermany and England, including the much-r iticized lle de Diable prison.

He finished his tour at the notorious prison n the Island of Jamaica, generally rated as 1e worst penal institution in the world. He tte_rviewed prison floggers, hangmen and, in 'ans, a headsman, with a view to substantiting his theories as to why such men prefer to e engaged in such occupations. He found that aey ':"ere all interested and activated by the :tme Impulses as that of a man he had interaewed at the Armour packing plant. This man ras employed to slash the throats of live cattle nd he admitted that he was fond of the job n account of a sexual reaction it gave him.

In World War I, Dr. Mayers was selected 3,500 physicians to give the first injectons of typhoid vaccine to 500 men. On learnag the size of the intended dose, he refused. :everal high-ranking officers, none of them miliary men, reminded him that he now was under nilitary orders and announced that he would ollow orders. Dr. Mayers recalled that he reJlied the situation did not compare with battle0 ield conditions; he walked out with the antouncement that "if you want to kill that many nen with that amount of vaccine, you can call 11 .orne other medical officer in to give it."

"The first officer who was called in next 1ave the men that large dose of typhoid vacn :ine ," he continued. "The objective was to lo it all in one dose; that was the reason for h< he large amount. As a result, within twelve b< lours 87 of them died. Dr. Patton, professor hi Jf pathology at the University of Pennsylvania, written a standard textbook, and he was called on to do the post mortems."

b< Dr. Mayers took the findings of the posth< mortems to Washington, regardless of orders, md showed them to General Munson , Surgeon:r. of the army. Munson was so upset tal oy the information that he sent out general for OCTOBER, 1957

orders that the typhoid vaccine be given in two doses, a week apart. After 500 soldiers received the vaccine in two doses, 69 died. These cases were posted the same as those in the first group. Again Mayers left camp, without leave, and saw the surgeon-general, who then gave orders to inject the vaccine in three doses, a week apart. Nine soldiers died in twelve hours. It was then decided to inject the entire army with typhoid shots-three shots a week apart. Three million soldiers were subjected to the treatment. It was learned later that of the three million who had the three-shot treatment, 750,000 developed tuberculosis. Of this group many died. Those who survived received life pensions. It was from this experience that, when the World War II started , over thirty million men had X-ray pictures taken of their chests before induction into the army. And comparatively few of the thirty million developed tuberculosis. Dr. Mayers was promoted to major in the First World war and had charge of a hospital in France with over 3000 soldier patients.

A new book on the general subject discussed in What We Are And Why, with new findings on the same topic , is now being finished by Laurence Mayers. Its appearance is being expectantly awaited by the medical journals , foundations, corporations and other groups and authorities who are becoming increasingly interested in the question of just what we are and why?

Th1 minority report was written and published Jim Mathes and J Frank Drake, President o Gulf Oil Company, two men of wide experience. They recommended the retention ol National Fraternities and proposed several ad ministration controls to improve the system Their proposal prevailed and had a profoum effect favorable to the National idea at all th1 Eastern Colleges.

Jim's loyalty, character, inspiration and lead· ership have left a permanent mark on genera tions of Dartmouth Betas. These qualities an his everlasting memorial.

As a personal tribute, I would like to add thai since Jim Mathes put the Beta pledge buttor on me in November 1909-48 years ago-1 have known him long and well including 21 years as fellow Trustee of the Dartmouth Bet< Chapter. As Hamlet said of his father, thf King: " He was a man Take him for all in all I shall not look upon his like again."

Jim Mathes died of a heart attack in hi! home , Greenwich, Conn., he was 68. Chairman of the board of the New York advertising agency bearing his name, he had been among the first to recognize and develop the value ol radio as an advertising medium.

From his office in New York as Chairman of the James M. Mathes Advertising Agency and from his summer home at New York Harbour , Maine, be made regular visits to the Chapter . At any time furnishings , carpets, furniture , painting or inspiration were needed , Jim was there to provide them. He stood for the best- the highest quality , the best effort. He inspired all who knew him.

His greatest disappointment was the death of his only son, James M. , Jr. , Dartmouth ' 39 , killed in action on a PT boat in World War II. The Card Room in the Beta House is a James M . Mathes , Jr ., Memorial ; and the lower lounge was named The Mathes Room by the active Chapter last year.

Jim was a strong believer in the National

He began his advertising career with N. w: A yer & Son, Philadelphia, traveling through much of the country and working out of it! Cleveland and Chicago offices before being placed in charge of its new-business department. He was made a partner in 1919 and when il was incorporated, he became senior vice presi· dent and second largest stockholder

He left Ayer in 1933 to form his own agency, of which he remained president until retirement last year

Through the years he also had bought, P. D. Saylor , and refinanced the Canada Dr} Ginger Ale , Inc. , bought interest in Durez Plastics and Chemicals , Inc. , and become a director of various concerns.

Los Angeles District Attorney

VARIOUS ARTICLES in the Beta magazine over the years have recounted how the men who helped found chapters of Beta Theta Pi have shown similar leadership and initiative in distinctive careers after college.

Certainly one of these is William B. McKesson , Colorado College '17, a charter member of Gamma Delta chapter of Beta Theta Pi. Before becoming District Attorney for Los Angeles County , California , _ he gained widespread recognition for his work in connection with juvenile delinquency.

Bill McKesson was one of those initiated into Beta Theta Pi at Gamma Delta's installation September 26, 1914. He was president of his chapter his senior year. Since then he has attended five Beta conventions and was a speaker at two of them . Since locating in Southern California he has been active in Beta alumni and has taken strong interest in Beta chapters at the University of Southern California and University of California at Los Angeles. He was the guest of honor at the Southern California Beta Alumni Association banquet this year.

His appointment as District Attorney for Los Angeles County last December was the first to be made under a new method of selec-

tion which was open to competition and durin, which all candidates appeared for public hear ings to set forth their qualifications. Followin, an examination by the Board of Supervisors fo all candidates he was unanimously chosen b the board. He now is head of the largest prose cutor's office in the United States. The stat comprises 305 individuals handling approxl mately 14,000 felony cases and 40,000 mis demeanor cases annually.

He likes to say he is District Attorney by ac cident, however-as the result of an explosio1 in the engine room of a ship in New Orleans Here's how it happened:

Bill McKesson, then judge of the Superio Court of Los Angeles, and his wife Florencr had planned a vacation last fall in the Carib bean. Shortly before their departure date, at accidental explosion in the boiler of the shiJ I on which they were to sail disabled the vesse and postponed the entire schedule. Efforts tc get reservations on other cruises failed. Trir plans were canceled. If things had worked ou as intended, McKesson would have been bask ing in the sunshine aboard ship somewhere ir the Caribbean where friends could not hav6 reached him to urge him to appear as a candi date for the office; he probably would havt known nothing about the office of district at· torney being open.

His selection was in part a recognition of hi! close attention to juvenile problems over th past ten years. He had presided over Juvenil Court in Los Angeles County when appointe a Superior Court judge in 1944 by Chief Justice Earl Warren , then Governor of California. the Governor's request the following year ho resigned his judgeship to become a member ot the California Youth Authority. His leadership of this young but important state agency brought him national recognition. In 1947, Gov· ernor Warren again returned him to the Su· perior Court bench to preside over the Juvenil Court of Los Angeles County. He directed the affairs of that court, the largest of its kind in the world, until shortly before he accepted the appointment as District Attorney.

He is a member of the executive committee ' of the Metropolitan Recreation and Youth Services Council, a director of the Downtown er Y.M.C.A. , Los Angeles Breakfast Club, the 111 Child Guidance Clinic of Los Angeles, and the <It

NAMED ONE OF THE TEN outstanding young men in the federal government this year for the annual Arthur S. Flemming award sponsored by the Junior Chamber of Commerce, was a Beta who has been the youngest man to hold each of the dozen supervisory and executive positions he has occupied in government.

Artemus E. Weatherbee, Maine '39, became deputy assistant postmaster general, Bureau of Personnel, Post Office Department, less than a year ago after having been executive director, Bureau of Personnel, since 1954, deputy director of personnel for the State Department prior to that.

His nomination for the Flemming award termed him "an outstanding example of civil service career servant who has risen through the ranks to a key executive position in the largest civilian Federal Agency."

"His work in directing the organization and installation of a modern personnel program in a Department which had been repeatedly criticized by the Hoover Commission and Congressional Committees for the absence of sound personnel practices, probably represents the largest single accomplishment in Federal personnel administration in the past decade, the nomination said.

"He successfully staffed and organized the new Bureau and fifteen Regional Personnel Offices. He directed the development and issuance of specific policy statements covering every phase of personnel management. He assisted in the preparation of badly needed legislation to provide an equitable salary structure and directed the installation of the new system which provides, for the first time in the history of the Post Office Department, equal pay for equal work based on written position descriptions covering each of 510,000 positions."

Weatherbee began his federal government career immediately after graduation, coming

Made Your Feet Itch

YOU HAVE EVER had the urge to head for ; great western open spaces, that impulse may ve come from Max M. Goodsill, Knox '12, o recently retired as General Passenger Agent · Northern Pacific Railway Company. Back in the silent film days of the 1920 's was among the first to use motion pictures sell railroad travel by picturing the scenic mdeur of the American Northwest. He lped to form the Dude Ranchers Association, organization of dude ranch operators in yarning, Montana, Idaho, Washington and ·egon. He helped the group in its efforts to rsuade the bored city dweller to desert the fety of his home and desk for two weeks adventure in the wild and woolly west.

When Max Goodsill came to the Northern tcific in 1922 he already knew something •out putting words together and something •out promotion. This experience had come Dm being editor of the Galesburg (Ill .), Eveng Mail and secretary of the commercial club I Helena, Mont.

At Northern Pacific he became assistant anager of the department of immigration and dustry. Subsequently, he was in charge of lvertising, publicity and public relations, 11 here he used his talents to sell the public on I estern travel. He organized hundreds of tours 1 , Yellowstone National Park, the Pacific orthwest, Hawaii and Alaska under the spon- di •rship of travel agencies, educational and tligious groups, newspapers, magazines, radio 1d TV stations. Through these media Max 0 telling the American public of the glorious nd of scenery and sunshine and urging them • approach this glamourous area via safe, corner ?rtable Northern Pacific.

Max Goodsill was a native of North Dakota ut found his way to Knox College at Galesurg, Ill., where be donned the Beta pledge utton. During his career there be was chapter for two years; be numbers among is worthy achievements the pledging of a fuo 1re President of Beta Theta Pi, Bertram W . o ennett, '2 0. He also was instrumental in bavn

ing his chapters' designation changed from Alpha Xi to Xi. Originally, Knox chapter bad been named Xi; it became inactive during the Civil War , and when it was later reactivated the name was changed to Alpha Xi. Goodsill worked to have the original name , Xi, restored.

For many years be was national vice president of the Associated Traffic Clubs of America and was president of the St. Paul Transportation Club, the Town Criers' Club of St. Paul and the Alumni association of Knox College where he also served on the board of trustees.

He is a former chairman of the board of Minnesota 10,000 Lakes Association, chairman of the St . Paul Convention bureau and served on the Minnesota Tourist Advisory Committee. He further served · the Betas at Knox by taking an active role in the campaign which raised funds for the George Fitch Memorial Chapter House.

Max Goodsill bas been too active a m a n to " retire" and may have absorbed some of his own promotion down through the years. We wouldn't be at all surprised to hear that hi s retirement address is some dude ranch out in that great, wide, wonderful west.

Hanna and John W. Laney. They saved the chapter."

"Later in the new big hotel on the lake front, knowing that Gordon and Frank Lowden, the Republican chief in Illinois , were very intimate, T.
