ANNIS JOINS U. S. C. STAFFIn introducing Bro. Verle L. Annis,

new W. G. S., to the Fraternity TheArchi related how due to the poor healthof his folks, pioneers of Washingtonstate, Link had relinquished his place onthe faculty at Oklahoma A. & M. withthe plan of practicing near Alderton.

Since then we have heard from Bro.Annis to the effect that he is joiningthe faculty at U. S. C. and will teachAdva~iced Design. His contact withAndronicus before and during the con­vention "Till be advantageous for theFraternity and in a personal way Link'sfolks will be brought near'er to him. '

Reorganization Steps Taken ByStaff and Council.

By Newsy NatFor the benefit' of those brothers of

Alpha Rho Chi who are of the keenlyanalytical type of nlind we wish to pointout that as this, the first number of thetenth volurne of The Archi reaches theirhands, The ~4rchi of Alpha Rho Chi isentering what might be called the fourthphase of its existence.

\\Te hope and pray that this fourthphase will be to the Fraternity what the

fourth leaf is to the clover,or the fourth wheel to anautomobile. We firmly be­lieve that after going thruthe other thr'ee phases thatThe Archi is reaching theplace where real stability ison the horizon.

The first phase of The'Archi came when the Fra­ternity was but t,vo yearsold. In 1916 the first num­her of Vol. 1 was published,with Clair W. Ditchy, Ik­tinos, as editor. The WorldWar had its influence upO'npublication. The second num­ber of the first volume didnot appear until 1917 whenBrent G. Webb, Anthemios(now deceas'ed), put it across.Finally in 1918 the thirdnumber of this volume wasput out 'by L. L. Hunting­ton, Anthemios, editor.

Hard tim~s marked the.first phase of The Archi, \varand three years marked thepublication of the first vol­ume. The second volume oft\VO nUTIl bers were edited byOrrin F. Stone and ]. J.Zinlmenl1an, Iktinos, duringthe school year 1920-21, whilebut one number constitutedthe third volume issued in1922 by Roger B. Morrow ofDemetrios. The three vol­umes were printed on 5x8 in"quarterly" form with at­tempts at serious articles ofa professional nature. Well,intended efforts w-ere cur­tailed by, lack of funds, thebest editor can do little whenthere is. no vvhere-with-all.

Wrist Watch From Fraternity AsGood Will Token.

As the first issue of The A rchi for theschool year 1928-29 reaches its readersthere will be in the office of the W. G. S.a new man succeeding Bro. Harold R.Peterson, l\!Inesicles '18, who retir'esafter' a long and valuable service toAlpha Rho Chi.

P·rior to "Pete" going west and bury­ing ·himself on a big railroad job, whichwas his responsibility, his work for theFraternity "vas more apparenttha:n sinc'e. Dating from hiselection to the post overseven years ago Bro. Peter­son has been a bulwark ofstrength in Alpha Rho Chi.

During the first years thatThe Archi was in the handsof the Mn'esicles chapter, inaddition to his duties of W.G. S., Brother Peterson didyeoman service on the staffof The Archi as well. Thosewho worked with him do notforget those days.

With the departure of theretiring W. G. S. from theranks of the Grand Council,Bro. D. P. Ely, W. G. A., atthe (unofficial) instructionsof the Texas' conventionmade last Dece'mber, pre­sented him with, \i token ofthe esteem of thcl membersof the Fraternity, a 17-jewelIllinois wrist watch. Thecost was defrayed by con­tributions from m'embers ofthe Fraternity re-ther thanchapter treasuries as .. was thecase a year ago when theW. Cr, E. Strong retired fromservice.

In writing Brother Elyupon r'eceipt of the ~oken,

\.Brother Peterson said i nFe rt, "I wish to assure', youdi'ld all brothers of the Fra­{.. ernity that I truly and 'sin-cerely appreciate the veryfine watch received and, thatI will always treasure it verygreatly. Please accept myhumble thanks, Brother Ely,for the Fraternity for thegift received."

RETIRING W. G. S. ISGIVEN APPRECIATION

2 THE ARCHI

Wherein TVe Recount Things and Thoughts

Which Come To Our Attention.

From The Editor's Mail BoxWhen Mnesicles took charge of The

,Archi the second phase of pubilcatio;nbegan. As the first phase might becalled the initial bold effort in the faceof hard tim'es, the second stage mightbe called that of experimentation. 1'hedelegates to the convention which award­ed The £4rchi to Mnesicles for the nextyear stated their program and won thesupport of the convention in the experi­ment.

As Editor, Elving L. Johnson, pio­neer'ed in this initial experiment. TheArchi ceased to he an ordinary frater­nity quarterly. Technical articles wereabandoned, it was NOT the function ofT he A rchi to take the place of the pro­fessional periodicals. "The Little N ews­paper" was the goal set and the pagewas changed to approximately fill theletter file folders of the brothers.

Experiment Proved P'opula.rFour monthly issues were published

and paid for before funds ran out. Theexperiment s'eemed to supply the de­mands of the Fraternity better than theold "so called" quarterly. The subscrip­tion roll while still small was impres­sive. As a result, the Mnesicles chapterwas again made custodians of The .Archifor another year. With the start ofVolume 5 Ho~ace W. Tousley, the pres­ent editor, took the reins and the thirdphase began.

This phase has been one of winningfriends and supporters to The .Archi.With W. G. S. Peterson, Bro. Nystrom,then Bro. Townes and later Bro. Moor­rpan joining the staff, the fight went onwith the constantly increasing force ofhelpers. l\nd, no,v for five consecutiveyears, five consecutive volurnes, the sub­scribers have been given their ninenumbers a year as promised.

A.t first the present management de­pended wholly upon annual subscrip,­tions, then the Life Subscription cam­paign ,vas launched. During the firstyears when both types of subscriptionswere coming in there was enough in­come to publish regularly and of uni­form size. L,ater as the number of cashsubscriptions decreased and the Endow­ment income had not grown to futur'epr.oportions there were lean issues andsome combined to save expense. Yet,for five years there have been nine num­bers printed each year.

Centralization of ForcesWhile the third phase was one of

gaining confidence and support, it wasalso a period of hard times as was thefirst phas'e and o:ne of experimentationas ,vas the second. And no,v out of thethree phases comes the start of thetenth year and the fourth phase.

Nominally for years The A rchi hasbeen in the hands of a board of thechapter respon sible for publication. Ac­tually, froITI year to year, as the man­agement becomes the sanle the boardexercised less and less their responsi­bility until it has virtually become non­functioning. During the saIne time thestaff, unofficially but naturally, have come

W ell, ~ boys, we were pleas'ed to hearfrom William Stuhr, Anth. Ex '19, thissummer. It has been quite some timesince we have heard from ,him and inthe interval he married 1\IIargaret DeeSear'S, OC,t. 1, 1925, and then on Dec. 11,1926, they became the proud parents ofCarolyn Marie. Brother Stuhr is nowpracticing architecture as a member ofthe firm of C'erun & Stuhr, Rock Island.

Another chap we heard from duringthe sun1.mer was C. Russell Dole, Dem.'27, who in the short time he has beenout of school has becolne senior drafts-

closer and closer in their associationwith the Grand Council.

As a result, by common consent,which will without a doubt be confirnledand made official at the coming conven­tion in Los Angeles, the Grand Councilhas virtually become The .Archi Board.Likewise, in the early days when theBusiness Manager ha:ndled all the annualand partial subscriptions he had a job.

Nystrom Favors ParrToday virtually all the funds ar'e de­

rived frOln investments of the Endow­ment made by the Grand Council. Inthis relation the W. G. E. and the Busi­ness Manager are handling the samen1.onies twic'e. Realizing the situationand since the W. G. E. is constitution­ally known as the Grand Business Man­aged anyway, Brother Nystrom is givingvvay to a simplification of the staff or,­ganization, and Brother Parr will bebusiness lTIanager in his stead.

Brother Nystrom expressed hims'elfas follows: "Promotion has been ex­pensive and ineffective of late and con­sequently neglected, therefore annualand alumni subscriptions are scarce.This leaves only the life subscriptionsof initiates which are automatically han­dled by the W. G. E. The present ar­rang'ement only complicates matters andthis can o:nly be overcome by central­izing The Archi management and con­trol in the Grand Council. The ./[rch>must prosper and the sooner a definiteprogram of organization is formulat"'dthe nearer we will be to a successfuloperation."

For several years Brother J\;foormanhas headed The A rchi Board as well asserving as circulation manager. Frankwrote: "I believe also that the time hascome when the Grand Council shouldtake over the publication of The Arch·,retaining Bro. Tousley as 'editor indefi­nitely, and if agreeable to them, retain­ing me as circulation manager or vvhat­ever you would call me. 'The tilne ha:,com'e \\-'hen The Archi should be takenover by the Fraternity as a whole and

man in charge of the structural en­gineering division of the Columbia Gasand Electric and the \vork is chiefly sub­stations, po,ver plants and the like.

Russ advises that he is single and hasacquired no responsibilities since beingelected to Tau Sigma Delta and the En­gineers Council. C ntil the middle ofJune Carl lZuck, DeITI. '27, was withDole in the same office, but is now inLilTIa. Robert A. Levvis, Denl. '12, how­ever is still in the same of-flce.

Sam Says Thank YauAnother Anthemios brother fron1. whom

vve had heard nothing for several yearswas Karl 1\11. VVaggoner, '17, of Water­loo. At present Wag is in business un­der the firm nanle of Hansen & Wag­goner of lVlason City, la. By the way,how many of you fello\ys knew thatKarl became a n12.rried ITIan last year,Sept. 27, l\;fiss l\1ildred Kays becameMrs. U\",!ag."

'Ne were' glad to get the followingword of encouragen1.en t fronl Sam. F..A.lbrecht, Jr., Den1.. '22, recentlv: "Ivvish to take this means to exp;ess anappreciation of the excellen t work your

not by one chapter. The editor todayhas reached a pOInt vvhere he does no"tbelong so nluch to l\;fnesicles chapter asto Alpha Rho Chi as a national in­stitution."

N:ew Policy Jointly PlannedAnd so The .Archi enters the fourth

phase, that of strengthening its organ­ization and centralizing its control. An­ticipating the hearty co-operation of thecoming convention the staff and theGrand Council have consulted togetherduring the summer and a three-fold pol­icy has been evolved.

First the organization is being simpli.­fied with a vie\v to those remain~.ng

sharing work and at the same tiITI~ Pl'­

abling menlbers of the Grand Cot1+">cilto become familiar with publishing de­mands so that they may carryon inemergencies such as' sickness or whatnot. Brother Nystrom retires in favorof the W. G. E. assuming his job, whileBrother Moorman will continue as cir­culation manager at the point of secondclass lnail entry.

Second, until the convention, theGrand Council will serve 'ex officio as .were, as The Archi Board. This v,affiliate The Staff of The .Archi mo1.closely with the Grand Council and as~'"sure full co-operation of the latter body.

Publication Da.tes ChangedThird, a new set of dates have been

decided upon in conference between TheStaff and th Grand C'ouncil, as to timesof publication. Most of th~ irregularity

T'ech. atI be In

staff is doing for The Archi and conse­quently for the Fraternity. The out­look may be discouraging to you attimes, but I believe that with the energyand persistence that you are displayingyou cannot help but get results in time.Keep it up, I am for you." Freddie isan engineer with Boyajohn & Barr, Incof Columbus, and as yet is "unincunl­beied" \tvith any family, chick or child.

The recent communication from Ed­ward H. Armstrong, Dem. Ex. '28, for­merly of Edwardsville, Ill., who nowis practicing architectur'e in WebsterGroves, a suburb of St. Louis, was to·the effect that their daughter Joan hadcelebrated her first birthday on July 12.Mrs. A.rmstrong was Louise McClellandbefore her marriage Jan. 1, 1926.

Ernst Budke III ArrivesErnst Budke, Jr., Dem. Ex '24, joined

with your editor in celebrating the ar­rival of his first son in February. Yeeditor's son arrived the 7th, while ErnstBudke, III, arrived the 21st. "Bud," weunderstand how each other feels, don'twe. ~lrs. Budke was Lillian May Ehr­hart of Columbia, Pa., prior to becom­ing ~lrs. "J r." Sept. 4, 1924. Eastman& Budke, Architects, Springfield, Ohio,is Bud's business responsibility.

Getting back to the Anthemios mail.Fred A.. Rohn, '16, we learn is now vicepresident and Detroit manager for theInterstate Fireproofing Co. Fred, youkno\v, married Gretchen Krumm Feb. 6,1922, and they have two kiddies. FredA., J r., now five and Jacqueline three inJuly. vVe ar'e glad that Brother Rohnis hitting the ball" again after his acci­dent some time ago, not that he didn'tvvhile in bed of course, but that he ishitting on all four now, or is it six,Fred?

'The :next Anthemios chap to be heardfrorn \vas Edgar T'. Clinton, '28, the lad

of the publication the past year is dueto the editor being a good fellow andholding The Archi for late copy. Therewill be no more of that, if copy is notin on time it will not appear in anyissue.

Copy for each issue must be IN THEEDITOR'S HANDS the first day of themonth of publication. Copy not in ontime will not even be considered thefollowing issue, and the guilty and neg­ligent chapters will draw blank spacesin the current issue. Dates of issue willbe the 15th of the month, which allowsonly the Ininimunl of time for editingand printing.

Under the new plan The Archi will beissued as of Sept. 15, Oct. 15, Nov. 15(December will be skipped), Jan. 15,Feb. 15 (April will be the regular annualdirectory with no news matter), May 15(No issue in June), possibly July 15(with August skipped). Copy for eachmonth due the first of that month.

Co-operatio;n of chapter officers is im­perative, the staff will not attempt tor'emind you to co-operate each month,lack of team work on your part willsimply drav{ a blank for your chapter.

Spann of Jackson. Miss Viola C.Sly became 1\1rs. Hall, on March 26,1928, he advises. Tin has two childr'enby a previous marriage.

Duke G,erlach In Good Spirits

"Since H'enry is in New York I amrunning the office myself, and so farhave had really wonderful luck and amgetting along fine. Everyone that Ihave had work with seems pleased andhave treated me just wonderfully, so Iam in the best of health and spirits,"writes \lV. De\vey Gerlach, l\![nesicles '26.Brother Hank '22, has left his nativeMankato, 1finn., for N e\\T York, andDuke is now pilot of the business oftheir father, now deceased. Both areunmarried.

Another of the old Mankato crowd isRalph \V. Hammett, '19, now practicingin Chicago as chief designer for Hall,Lawrence & Ratcliff and teaching as As­sociate Professor of Architecture atArmour Institute, Chicago. Last wesaw Ham he advised us that Dolly,sister of Duke and Hank Gerlach, \vasmarried and living in Chicago and thatshe had developed into a fine little home­maker. Shhh! Ham is contemplatingmatrimony hims'elf, we know her name,but the formal announcen1ent cannot bemade as yet. 1\10re anon.

While we are thinking of Mankaton1en of Mnesicles. The latter part ofJuly w'e received a note from one Flor­ian A. Kleinschmidt, '20, from the neigh­boring village of St. Louis, stating: "Ihave resigned from Kansas State to ac­cept a position as head of the Dept. of-

3

Arch. Engineering at TexasLubbock, so no longer willKansas.

Get Together With Editor"Am \tvorking for Omeara & Hills this

summer, and July 15, Bonsall (WallaceC., Mnesicles '24) came to join the forc'e.Also Larry Bakken, '22, has moved here."We forthwith put in a phone call forKleine, and our good wife arranged agathering for the following Sunday.

When the roll was called we foundpresent Larry and Peggy Bakken anddaughter Viola May, Wally Bonsall andFlorian, all of Minnesota, and Hal andAI, the St. Louis twins, known at An­themios as Kneibusch '26 and Wenthe'25. 'Tvvas a great time we had, com­paring notes and all, with Bonny re­lating his experiences in Europe whichat points tallied with Kleinie's ownyarns.

Mrs. Kleinschmidt spent the summerwith her folks in St. Paul, while Mrs.Bonsall (nee Verna Smith) had not yetreached St. Louis from Minneapolis.Several get-togethers of the group orparts ther'cof have been held since theinitial o.ne at Alto'n.

Stew Wright In Bad ShapeOne piece of news that we gained

from Kleinschmidt was rather distress­ing and related to Bro. Stewart V.Wright, Mn'es. '19, now of Louisville~

Ky., whom we understand is in seriousconditiO"n with tuberculosis, being con­fined to his bed most of the time. lVlrs.Wright is standing by like a goodsoldier with her little son Stewart, Jr.,who will be five this fall.

But getting away from Mnesiclesfolks a bit. A note from Glenn H. Ben­jamin, Ikt. '23, draws our attention, forit came in the same mail with Floria'11s.Ben describes himself as still being ahappy, red-headed bachelor and advis'esthat for SOlne few years now he hasbeen a licensed architect in the opinionof the Michigan state board. At thetime of writing he vvas with C. HowardCrane, in the Michigan theatre building,and anticipated being there if theatrebuilding held good.

"I t is foolish to rep'cat that Detroit isa great clearing house for MichiganA P X 111en, but we do see each otherat times and find a common interest andtalking point when the Fraternity andits activiti'es are mentioned. Summerfinds 1110St everyone on vacations or do­ing sOll1ething to keep away from thecity so contacts are few right now."

Burdick in Building and LoanOne of the Michigan Inen, from whom

we had never heard, responded to a com­nlunication this summer. Lorence B.Burdick, '22, is the man. From hiin welearn that he married June 27, 1922, im­mediately after graduation, VirginiaConnabl'e being his bride. Larry is nowthe father of t\VO children, Lorence C.born Dec. 29, 1924, and Mary Louise,who arrived Nov. 3, 1927. Brother Bur­dick is assistant secretary of the FidelityBuilding and Loan of Kalamazoo.

A letter from one of the Ohio boys,Newton F. 1\1:arvin, '25, who is a drafts­111an for Stophlet & Stophlet, Toledoarchitects, is quite enlightening. "I havefound out that the life of an architectis not a bed of roses. I think that isone mistake that a lot of fellows makevvhe:n they decide to study architecture.They think that it is an easy way to gothru life and Inake money quick.

"The reason I make that statement isthat there have been a number of fel­lovvs working in our office who havethat idea and they get quite a jolt whenthey have to start at almost nothing.I found that out myself too. How:ver,I find architecture a very interestingoccupation, and I am greatly satisfiedthat I went into the game. l'he presentfirm I am with specializes in school de­signing, although they do other workas wel1."

THE ARCHI HOUSEBy The Old Timer

The na1ne ((Archi House" was avery happy idea on the part of Kal­likrates chapter. We hope to see ihenew Archi I-1ouse soon.

A t first thought this name str-ikesus as a little odd-~ve are so used tothinking of our "little newspaper"as The Archi that we forget for aminute the origin of the 'lvord. It1nust have been originally used toindicate a member of Alpha Rho Chi.If a 1nan belongs to Sig1na Phi Ep­silon) he is a Sig Ep and goes to theSig E'p house. If he is an AlphaRho Chi n~an he is an Archi and hishouse is the A rchi House.

The O. T. has a high regard forthe value of the chapter house inconl'lection'lvith a fraternl:ty, it seefnsto us, takes, in a student's life, theplace of the family arld the chapterhouse is ht's home 'Zvhile at college.The family ~vithou,t a home is ,in abad 'U'ay to be united, and the sameth£ng is true of the fraternitychapter.

The chapter house provides a place·z€.,h,ere the chapter-fanLiljl n1ay live,eat and gather for business, studyor recreation. It is the place 'lvhfret£fe- 70ng fr~'endships are begun;'Zuhere the hand-clasp of brother'shand 1neans some "YJrLighty aid" im­parted " a place ~vhere the old-t'£rnercan C0111e back. and re-live his col­lege days in reminiscence 'lvhen thoseda}'s are long past.

I n the '((lords of the ancientprophet-"Behold, ho~v good andp feasant it is for brethren to d~vell

together in unity."

Doc Holman, vvho is professor ofr.1Iathematics and l\!Ie~hanicsin the Col­lege of Engineering and Architectur'e,will novv have a new title of Professorand Supervising Engineer, the post ofSuperintendents of Buildings havingheen abolished. This makes Brothersand Professors F'. M. Mann, SupervisingArchitect, and Wm. F. Holman, Super­vising Engineer, the physical headsof the University as well as key men inthe Department of Architecture.

The second note of interest we reg'retto pass on, for it recounts the passingof Olof Thorshav, '21, Minneapolisarchitect of the firm of Long & Thor'­Inent. \\Thile neither Roy nor his dadInent. While neither Roy or his dad\vere members of A P X their friends inMnesicles chapter were numerous, andthe sympathy of the chapter is herebymade man ifest.

THE THERON ALUMNIASSOCIATION FORMED

It was on August 20th that Bro.D. P.Ely" W. G. A., formally recognized theTheron Alumni Association which wasorganized the latter part of May andpetitioned the Grand Council.

Officers of the Association accordingto Louis Williams, active chapter cor­respondent, are Hugh W. Brown, J r.,President; Harold F, Flood. Secretary,and Earl F. Holyfi'eld, Treasurer.

The address of the association is givenBro,ther Ely as being 436 W. 12th St.,Oklahoma City, Okla.

but the arrival of Rowena Joan Feb. 9,1927 was news to us. Samuel P. Boon­stra,' '20, is also practicing, bu.t in Mich­igan City, Ind., under the firm name ofAhlgrin & Boonstra.

When Edward H. Adams, Mnes. '21,wrote us this summer he was at FortSnelling in the 313th Engineers Reservecamp. He reported enthusiast~cally that,the year has been the best In. ~evt:raland the busiest. H'e was antICIpatIngthe laying of the cornersto.ne, o~ theGrace Presbyterian church 1'n MInne­apolis the following we~k. Bro. FloydW. Brown was the archItect and Ed thecontractor, operating under the name ofthe Adams Construction Co.

Glen Yockey, Anth. '28, retiring W. A.and delegate at the Manhattan conven­tion, is now putting up at ..the X: 1\;1. C..A.at Moline, 111., while in traInIng WIththe Herman N elSaH Corp. for saleswork. Just what field. Glen expects tohave he does not know, so his perma­ne:nt address is still Taylorville.

Earl Busy in Bean TiownWe deduce tha.t Bro. Rexford N ew­

comb Anthemios honorary, spent thesum~er or part of it at least at OceanP'ark Maine for 'twas from there thatwe h~ard fro'in him. N ewk you know isProfessor of Architecture at Illinois andEditor of the Western Architect.

W. C. "Duke" Earl, Anthemios '25,writes from "Bosting" as follows: "Forthe last year and a half I have beenchief cook and bottle washer for R. W.Beal, a Boston landscaper, who is mak­ing a specilaty of playgro~nd and ath­leitc fields. I do everythIng from de­sign and sup'ervision to shining thecuspidors." Duke is still single andlaments that he has seen none of thegang since "Satt" was up for the Yalegame last fall.

Word came to us from Toledo thatDonald H. Buckhout, Mnes. '17, is esti­mator, designer and what have you forCarl H. Ruch, Toledo general contract­or who at the time of writing had theco~tract for a $300,000 home for the bigToledo spark plug man. Bunny alsoadvis'ed that Ruch built his (Buckhout)own new home for him at an actual costof $22,500 at Perrysburg, about ten milesup the muddy Maumee from Toledo.Bun'ny designed the house himself.Clinker brick and some tiInber on a 66x165 lot in view of thc river. There are

two kiddies in the Buckhout home now,Donald J r., 6, and Natalie, 2.

"Not Yet, But Soon"-Allison

Roswell'T. Ellison, Andronicus '26, isnow in San Francisco, and is a salesmanfor face brick and terra cot.ta in theS. F. office of the Gadding, McBean &Co. Ros partially confided that mar­riage is "Not yet but soon!" But therascal don't go into details. K'eep usadvised, Allison.

While we are in the line of ceramicproducts it ren1inds us that we heardfrom Harrison EL Godsall, Demetrios,Ex '24, of Columbus. The old boy isin the tile and mantle contracting gameunder the firm name of Godsall & Phil­lips. Harrison was married last Nov. 3to Miss Helen Elizabeth Hoffman.

And in "My Ohio Home" of DownieW. lYfoore', Dem. '15, there is now awee babe, N ancianne born May 4, 1928,whose 1110ther was Margery Ra.thburnbefore. she married Dinty Oct. 16, 1924.Brother Moore was a charter member ofDemetrios and is now practicing archi­tectur'e in Columbus.

Word from Oak and Lake Forest

".l\.lways enjoy hearing from The Archi,but as three girls (counts his friend,wife, as one) in the falnily keep ll1ebusier than I was as a Freshman, all Ican do is to keep working and try andplaya little golf occasionally." So writesClyde 1'. Oakly, Dem. '13, who is a de­partment manager for the RepublicStructural Iron works of Clevela:nd. Thetwo kiddies are Eleanore Ma'e, 10, andMary Alice, 6.

Bro. Stanley White, Anthemios Fac­ulty meInber, vvrote from Lake Forestthis summer, where he is director ofFoundation for Architecture and Land­scape architecture at Lake Forest, thatthere were three A P X m'en there atthat time on fell'owships for the sum­mer, namely: W. R. Ralston, architect,11ichigan; H. E. Kincaid, landscape,Illinois; and H. C. Summersett, architect,Ohio State. He added, "am on sub­batical leave for a year beginning thisSeptember and hope to have an oppor­tunity of making new acquaintancesamo:ng the A P X membership. Will betraveling thru the Atlantic coast statesmostly."

From Duluth, Minn., comes wordfrolTI Bro. A. Reinhold Melander, andhis good little wife (nee Florence Knox,Alpha Alpha Gamma, Minnesota) to theeffect that their little Florence 11ar\r.who was born Nov. 29, 1927, is a childthat they are proud of even if she has

published the fact that on Oct. 28, 1928,the Texas Alumni C'hapter was recog­nized by the W. G. A. Bro. MalcolmG. Simons, Iktinos charter member, wasthe A. A. While this body has burstinto print little since the Austin con­vention they did yeoman service at thattim'e with the trip to San' Antonio.

SUTTON WRITES NEWSOF NEW YORK CHAPTER

Chas. R. Sutton, Anth. '21, who is alandscape architect with Ferruccio Vitale,N eVil York City, writes as follows: LAmuch delayed letter or note. I have beenwaiting for some authentic acknowledg­ment of the foundation of the New YorkAlulYlni Chapter, but our ranks are in­creasing so rapidly and \ve feel that everyone should sign the petition that as faras I last knew it hasn't gone in yet.

Bob Wade Writes Ag:ainRobert V. Wade, Deln. '25, is a chap

"On Wisconsin' has been the song ofCarl C. Hertzberg, Anth. Ex '29, insteadof "We're Loyal to You, Illinois." Forthe old boy fell by the wayside and hewrites: "Am .taking a general courseand like Wisconsin quite well and amgoing back this year, but I get quite alonging for good old Champaign andAnthemios once in a while."

Carl wondered if we remembered himas one of the gang which drew thenurses to my room when he visited methere when vo'ur editor was laid up inthe Champaign hospital with bloodpoisoning three years ago. Y'ep, thegirls gathered when C'arl arrived. Bythe way, Carl joined Theta Chi at Wis­consin.

Mnesicles Brothers CommunicateWe wer'e glad to hear froln Brother

Billy Olson, Mnesicles Ex '24, this sum­mer, although we were sorry to hearthat he was down again. We had nots'een hin1 for several years so he wroteas follows: "I have been a dormant in­dividual, since I last savv you, on ac­count of ill health. I left school in 1923and in February, 1924, went to LosA.. ngeles and vvorked for B. B. B'ell, orna­mental iron and lighting fixture com­pany, as a draftsman for 14 Inonths.
