PRESIDENT'S REPORT Costly Illusions

A mother told her neighbor that her son was serving with the Army "in the Illusions." We know that she meant the Aleutians, but many a mother's son has served in the illusions and enjoyed the assign-ment, since it is usually self made! Quite an army enjoys life's com-forts in the illusions where there are cushy nooks, easy chairs, soft sofas and numerous escape hatches from the bumps and bruises of life.

We like illusions! Like the illus-ion that 200,000 words can be con-densed to 10,000 without loss of literary style, quality or cultural value. How about the illusion that keeping up with the parade means you are making progress? Reminds one of that character who dashed a fast hundred to catch the bus and after five minutes spent in catching his breath asked: "Where is this bus going?" Going nowhere fast is an illusion!

Your President had dwelt in some illusions before he was elected to this high office. They have dissi-pated quite rapidly.

Some of the brothers individu-ally and some chapters collectively have illusions. Some of them be-lieve that we can operate an effi-cient program for the International Fraternity with the same fees for pledging and initiation which we had in 1965. Our Executive Secre-tary and his staff have done some

amazing things to inorease our ef-ficiency and cut costs; but none of us operates his home, his office, his car on the same budget as 1965. I t is unrealistic, and an illusion to see tuition, board and room zoom, and to operate fraternity chapter houses in the competitive market at 1965 rates.

A chapter is "in the illusions" if it fails to have a chapter letter or any alumni bulletin and then auda-ciously mails the annual plea to alumni for help.

An "illusion" current in the fra-ternity word is that whine: "We'd be better off as a local fraternity." There may be chapters who belong in this category, but the odds and evidence against their continued existence is overwhelming. There are not a hundred locals which can boast that they have reached the half century mark, but there are

over 4,000 chapters of international and national fraternities.

Perhaps the most tragic and self defeating illusion to which anyone of us can fall victim is: "What difference does it make what I do?" It makes a great difference how we live. Each has some endow-ment, or energy, or power or gift of influence that could make all the difference to your chapter, home, or business. The man who quits because he missed out in the chap-ter elections, or ended up with a less prestigious position than he felt he merited, ought to look at some of the also rans of history.

My sincere thanks to the Con-vention for the support given the new fees. No words can do justice to any effort to thank the nearly 4,000 alumni who serve, without compensation, and make Delta Upsilon the richest fraternity in the world. May we be worthy of His richest blessing in the New Year. Dikaia U potheke.

Some people make the world; the rest just come along and live in it. How are you doing? Just be sure you're not stuck in the Illusions

Fraternally yours,

Province Officers Seminars Start Next Month Leadership Conference Shares Theme

PAST PRESIDENTS GREET GOVER-NOR-Homce G. Nichol, Camegie '21 Ilnd Charles F. Jennings, Marietta '31, greet P.rovince 9 GovernOl' James R. B'I'Ooks, Kansas '61, during his visit at the December meeting of the BOa1'd of Dilecto1'S.

Attend Momentum )73 Plans are complete for the twelve Momentum '73

province conference chapter officers seminars which will take place in February and March on college campuses. Selection of the Momentum '73 theme for both the province meetings and the forthcoming Leadership Conference and Convention in Indian-apolis, August 23-25, has also been announced.

The regional, mid-year meetings for chapter officers provide a grass-roots communications point while unveiling plans for the remainder of the year, and discussing the upcoming leadership con'ference and convention. Officers, directors, Province Governors and members of the staff will conduct the one day, weekend sessions, which will include informal chapter conferences by appointment on Friday evening, to be followed by formal and informal presentations, questions and answers, and discussion group meetings.

Among the topics which will be discussed is the Committee on Undergraduate Activities' new chapter standard program, the preliminary findings of the Future Committee, and the function of the Chair-

DELTA UPSILON QUARTERLY. January} 1973

man's Undergraduate Advisory Board. Members of the Undergraduate Advisory Board will have the first opportunity since their meeting in August, to meet with the chapters in the province which they repre-sent.

Brother James R. Brooks, Kansas '61, a member of the Undergraduate Activities Committee is responsible for coordinating the program for the province confer-ences. He is also at work on the leadership conference schedule and curriculum, which is changed regularly to reflect current chapter needs.

Selection of the Momentum '73 theme for the meeting reflects the healthy upsurge in pI edgings, and the greater positive interest in the fraternity system which is gradually being reported on most college and university campuses this fall. The transi-tion from a condition of survival to actively making contemporary fraternity programs more related to student needs will be high on the discussion agenda for both meetings.

The schedule of the province officers seminar meet-ings is listed below. Province areas are described in the QUARTERLY directory which appears on Page 28 of this issue.

R eelected to lead the Fraternity for th e coming' year were James C. McLeod, Middlebury '26. International President and ,.v. D. "Vatkins, North Carolina, '27, Chairman of the Board . Vice-Presidents Bertel "V. Antell, Cornell '28 ; S. Ross Johnson, British Columbia '52; Frank B. Jones, Indiana '46; and J. Paul Mc-Namara , Miami '29.

Board Represents Wide Variety of Professional, Educational Experience

What kind of Brothers are members of the Board of Directors, Delta Upsilon's governing and policy making body? By original chapter of initiation there are eleven different chapters represented. Middlebury is the oldest chapter repre-sen ted by an officer and director and Kansas State the most recently installed. In the Delta Upsilon official family there are two members of the Indiana Chapter: Frank B. Jones, Vice President, Indiana '46; and director Howard Kahlenbeck, Jr., Indiana '52. Virginia is the other chapter with two representatives: Harry W. Lanbscher, Secretary is Virginia '50; while director and Vice-Chairman O. Edward Pollock, Virginia '51 is the sec-ond member of the delegation.

In terms of actual residence addresses, officers and directors live in six states and one Canadian Province, Ontario. New York State is represented with four, while Indiana and Ohio each claim three of the official family. One each from Illinois, Kansas, and NOl'th Carolina.

Association, Bloomington, Indiana. Of course, Brother Gary J. Golden, Rutgers '74, the undergraduate board member, is very much involved in getting his edu-cation at the present time.

In the banking and investment com-munity, Bruce S. Bailey, Denison '58, Fraternity Treasurer, is the President of the Farmers Savings and Trust Company of Mansfield, Ohio; while Fraternity Sec-retary, Harry W. Laubscher, Virginia '50, is senior vice-president of research with Walston and Company, New York City. Brother Donald C. Rasmussen, Purdue '46, manages the Indianapolis, Indiana office of vValston and Company stock-

Delta Upsilon who is resident Vice Presi-dent of the New York Life Insurance Company in Toronto.

The law is well represented with J. Paul McNamara, Miami '29, DU Vice-President, who is partner in the firm of McNamara & McNamara, Columbus, Ohio; and Howard Kahlenbeck, Jr., In-diana '52, a director and the Fraternity's legal counsel, a partner in the Kreig, DeVault, Alexander and Capehart firm in Indianapolis; and Terry L. Bullock, Kansas State '61, a partner in the Topeka, Kansas firm of Cosgrove, Webb and Oman.

Reduction in the number of directors means that some standing committees will be ohaired by alumni who are not members of the Board of Directors. The smaller, more cohesive governing body can make policy decisions with greater ease and speed of communication than was previously possible.

Dr. Christian B. Anfinsen Dr. Christian B. Anfinsen,

Swarthmore '37, a biochemist with the National Institutes of Health, Bethesda, Maryland, is one of three American scientists who have been awarded the $100,000 Nobel Prize for Chemistry.

Anfinsen is chief of the labora-tory of chemical biology at the National Institute of Arthritis, Metabolism and Digestive Diseases, a branch of the National Institutes of Health. His specialty is the rela-tionship between protein structure anel function and the genetic basis of the protein structure.

The award statement, announc-ing the Prize, said in part "This year's Nobel Prize for Chemistry has been awarded to three scien-tists who have made fundamental contrib'utions to enzyme chemistry ."

Anfinsen, born in Monessen, Pennsylvania, graduated from Swarthmore where he played foot-ball in college, and tried for a while to squeeze in a football career between laboratory courses.

He received a Masters of Science degree from the University of Pennsylvania in 1939, and the Ph.D. in biochemistry from Hal'V-anI in 1943. A series of research and teaching jobs at Pennsylvania, Harvard and the Medical Nobel fnstitute in Stockholm followed. During 'Yorld "Val' fI he served as a civ ilian with the Office o[ Scientific Research and Develop-ment.

Darrell K. Royal

''''inning the Cotton Bowl against fourth ranked Alabama by a 17-13 score, must have been a great way to start the New Year for Darrell K. Royal, Oklahoma '50, University of Texas Coach and Athletic Director. Completing a 9-1 season, with a 38-3 victory over Texas A&M, the seventh-ranked Longhorns had already claimed their fifth consecutive Southwest Conference title with a win over Texas Christian earlier in the season.

The victory gave Texas aID-I mark for the year and was its first Cotton Bowl triumph in three years. Alabama, the Southeast Conference champion, completed its season 10-2.

Peter Gogolak Ylaking football and New York

Giants scoring history this season is Peter Gogolak, Cornell '64, who first made soccer-style kicking popular at Cornell a decade ago.

Garnering the Giants top scor-ing record was the highlight of a most successful comeback year [01' Gogolak, after a disappointing 1971 season. He returned to peak eHecti veness this year by extra conditioning, winning his job back during the exhibition season, and a,king for and receiving extra practice against a simulated rush after doing poorly in the First two games.

Comment on Fraternity

Frater'nity .Bl:lrn-Outs

Taking off with large quantities of enthusiasm, Bob started his term of office as chapter president. He was full of determination, plans, there were many changes he wanted to make in the chapter. Unfortunately, he never got to first base with most of the brothers. By the end of his sixth week in office he was totally disgusted, frustrated at banging his head against the stone wall of indifference. He was an unhappy, burned-out leader, who had tried, but was now content to abandon the chapter to "let them do what they want" wandering. When I suggested an election, or reshuffling of officers, he balked at the idea. I suspect that he thought it meant admitting failure. An idea which most of us don't like very well. Across the Fraternity realm, an alumni corporation leader, tired of the twenty year struggle, simply gave up and didn't bother to call an election. He was thoroughly burned-out after the repetition of years of hard work for Delta Upsilon with little appreciation in return. In another. chapter, the undergraduates selected two counsellors who had served for many years, who were moving out of the state. The undergraduates were too disinterested in the Fraternity to try to find some new alumni advisory help.

When the Fraternity becomes monotonous, a burden instead of some-thing which we take pleasure in, and get satisfaction from our achieve-ments, it's time for a change. How about those seniors which bolt in droves, or press to avoid chapter meetings? Aren't they really saying that they can't stand the boredom of any more chapter meetings which are giving them nothing?

We applaud the Brothers who have the vision and foresight to change their Fraternity assignments before they become frustrated and tired, those who take a long look and renew their dedication and finish the job by dint of hard work and stubborimess deserve plaudits too.

The myth of the indispensable man should be exploded, firmly once and for all time. Perhaps trading some job responsibilities will give new challenges and variety to your Delta Upsilon experience. At any rate, it is worth considering at the start of the new year.

We're not suggesting that every position of responsibility, of leadership, doesn't involve some commitment, some pain. But, when the endless frustrations mount, some reconsideration of the basic purposes of friendship, culture, justice and character demand reordering personal and group priorities.

One of the great opportunities of the Fraterl1ity is for leadership. At any time and age there is something you can do to make your Fraternity stronger. There are so many opportunities for involvement that the strong start and the fast fade should be exceptions rather than commonplace.

Fraternally yours,

CHAPTER ACTIVITIES REVIEW

..,. i~ ~'1I1\1 I 1\\11'111, \111111 .... ..- -~=oJl ~ ... - "' /'~ . \(39 I ,-Alberta

Fall activities began at the Alberta Chapter with rush. Once again the DU pledge class was among the largest at the U. of Alberta. The informal approach to rush worked well with its emphasis on personal contact and friendship.

The Chapter acquitted itself quite well in intramural football, and Brother Bain McMillan will be playing basketball for this year's varsity squad.

Early in September, the Chapter elected Ray Pruitt as president. Other members of rhe executive staff were elected last spring. On November 25, Pledge Trainer Bob Calvert's programs were culminated with formal initiation.

The Chapter's activities are now pl)i-marily concerned with the pledging of new men, a full social schedule, and con-tinued participation in intramural ath-letics. The Alberta Chapter is lookirig forward to another very good spring.

Mike Hurst

Arlington The Arlington Chapter has been ex-

tremely active on campus this year. The spring elections left us with three out of the five Greeks on Student Congress and gave our Vice-President the addi-tional office of presiden t of I.F .C. In November two other brothers were elect-ed to Student Congress. The Student Ac-tivity Board is headed by a D.U., one pledge is playing varsity football and anQther was elected as freshman cheer-leader. Also an active Bl'Other is varsity cheerleader 'and four Brothers were initi-ated into honor fraternities making us the best represented Greek organization on campus.

Again we hosted a Texas-aU postgame party which was a great success. Over four-hundred Bl'Others from Oklahoma,' Texas, Southwest Texas, and Tyler at-tended.

This semester saw the DU's initiate a first for Arlington's Greek system. Real-izing the need for replacing the large number of expected spring graduates, we engaged in a very forceful open rush and took a mid -semester pledge class. To our twenty-one man fall pledge class, we added a seven man pledge- class just

, v,.

in time for them to participate in our annual "Haunted House" project. It was more successful than the previous year's collections for the American Cancer So-ciety as well as being a lot of fun for the Brother, and kids.

This along with several skits at pep rallys and a DU sponsored all-pledg'e-class party should enable them to win the best pledge class award for the third straight time and the first annual spirit trophy.

Jim Bruce

BO'l_vling Green As rushing is usually a main activity

for a fraternity house, so has it been with Bowling Green this fall. We have taken seven new pledges and our pledge program has brougllt the Brothers closer together as well as being of great bene-fit to the pledges themselves.

Last spring our Chapter achieved a 2.7 overall grade point average. This placed us fifth on campus and hopefully we can achieve a simila.r, if not better, standing' in the future.

A strong asset for our chapter this year is our newly organized Parent's Club. With the organization provided by our President Mark Rippley, and vice presi-dents Al Noaker and Steve Vollmer, our parents are really becoming hOllse ori-ented and involved with Delta Upsilon.

On January 12, our Chapter is spon-soring a film festival. It will consist of l'lll1ning a variety of films for 27 hoUl'S straight with all profits going to a chari-table organization. Hopefully this will also assist us in rush and chapter rela-tions.

Recently the chapters from Ohio Uni-versity and i 'Vestern Michigan were our guests. Both weekends were a fantastic time and just proves that brotherhood is not just in the house.

Thomas L. Koch

Bradley Taking in the largest pledge class of

all the fra ternities on campus (30 men), the Bradley Chapter of Delta Upsilon was off to a fine start. iVe have also taken several men through open rush.

On the sports scene, we are indeed

DELTA UPSILON QUARTERLY. January, 1973

fortunate in the fact that two of our new initiates, Tom Cauthen and AI Sol-ari, have started in every soccer game

s~ far this season, and have been definite a,sets to the team. Credit should also be given to Rob Loomi, on swim team, Jay IVforgan on a tennis scholarship, and George Kontos 011 bowling. Also involved in sports are Tony Brocato and John Leonard on cross country. "Vith basket-ball about to begin, morale is high, as are hopes for a trophy this season.

"Ve have started to gain extra money for the house through a financial gains committee. Planned for the future are movies, raffles, and the possibility of sponsoring a rock band available to the I'est of campus. All proceeds will go to the house.

Due to a successful rush and finc sup-port of programs in effect, we look for-ward to an even better spring semester.

Robed Dixon

Bucknell The key word for fellow Demosthene-

ans last fall was rush. A shorter overall program, more informality, hamburger study . breaks, brother-rushee football games, and a tri-rush chairmanship were a few of the innovations that sparked our rush program to a full blaze. The result was a pledge class thirty-three strong: Gary Allen, Steven J. Beckmann, Garry B. Booth, John R. Bunting, III, Louis T. Calvano, Frank Carroll, Jeffrey T. Dederer, Jon F. Doebber, R. Scott Eic-horn, Robert S. Fasciana, Raymond M. Ferri , D. Curt Gillespie, Jr., Gerald G. Gorforth , Thomas P. Gotwalt, Gary A. Graves, John L. Harshbarger, John R. Hawas, Geoffrey H. Horsefie1d, Paul E. Johnson, Robert J. Keller, Mark ,"V. Kramer, Scott C. McClure, Thomas G. McElhaney, III, George W. Melcher, III, Geoffrey B. Miller, Ralph (Duff). Powell, S. Timothy Pretz, Charles Roes, Bob Ross-boro, Robert C. Shipway, Jr., Marc N. Sickle, Michael R. Sivulich, and Robert C. Wagner.

DU harriers-Brother Bruce Hyde and Pledge Lou Calvano-finished a brilliant 24th and 18th ovcrall, respectively, in the Intercollegiate Amateur Athletic Associ-ation of America championship meet, thus being namcd to the All-East Cross COUll try Team.

The Chapter has enthusiastically fin-anced the "adoption" of a needy Ameri-can Indian child through Children, Inc. With hopes of further improving Univel'-sity-community relations, the DU's and Alpha Chi Omega sorority co-produced an evening' of musical entertainment for the residents of a local home for the elderly.

Academics proved to be a hallmark as the Chapter finished first in the overall fraternal scholastic standings and above the University all men average for the '71 -'72 academic year.

Sam D. GTeenlee

California Polytechnic The DU house of San Luis Obispo has

pledged four men for the fall Quarter. W' e hope to see them become members in the near fu ture if all goes well wi th their pledging.

Unity and traditions are going strong with the Chapter as shown by the 100% pal-ticipation in such events as fall rush, the game at Fresno State where the DUs became notorious as the number one root-ing section, homecoming which brought the alumni back to the old homestead, and the homecoming parade in which we entered our two bathtubs on wheels, the Halloween festival for the children of San Luis Obispo, the Shakey's Pizza Parlor Revival Meeting, and pledging. Our upcoming Christmas Party is also

~xpected to be a gala event. This quarter we acquired a new mas-

cot. She is a foUl' month old Samoyed which we have named Samantha in tradi-tion of the house. Samantha is present at all events of ,the house, especially sports events.

Our bowling teams are taking first place in the All-College League and the Inter-Fraternity League. vile are also proud of Dale Ouimette who finished off his four year water polo career with a last second goal for Cal Poly.

Communications have brightened up this quarter on the national scene and the response has become enlightening to this chapter. Jack Ettner, our Province Governor, visited us recently in response to our stronger concern for national bonding and found us quite sincere. We are looking' forward to visiting with our field representative in the near future.

Allen Hibbs

Carnegie The Carnegie Chapter is beginning to

move faster; faster as many new pro-grams are revamping the chapter or-ganization. The effects are beginning to show already, and we are looking for-ward to a bright new Carnegie chapter soon.

'We took to the new informal campus rush quite well with an above average number of nine pledges. They are John Spalding, Glenn Gordon, Jon Domasch, Larry Riddle, Todd Havekotte, Dave Bauer, Jim Nattalo, Alex Tiberi, and Rich Eastman. We hope to do equally well next semester, and probably will.

Founder's Day celebration was a true event this year when over twenty alumni representing a sampling of sixty years of Carnegie D.U.'s came to a special dinner. "Ve were particularly honored to have W. Ward Powell, '13, with us. He is one of the original Carnegie petitioners. It was indeed an impressive occasion; we hope to have many more like it.

Through a concerted effort by all brothers, we received the Most Im-proved Scholarship trophy this semester, and hope to continue in that vein.

Enthusiasm is running surprisingly high at Carnegie chapter; the future looks challenging, but bright.

CENTRAL MISSOURI- At Central Mis-sou1'i State, ChajJter officeTs mise the Delta UjJsiion banner on campus, noting the change in the name of the school from College to University. Loohs like they are going to celebmte, doesn't it?

Central Missouri The Central Missouri State Chapter

pledged nine men this fall: Jody Barber, Dave Nail, Jim Flemington, Mark Paul, Wayne Shipp, Larry Hunt, Doug Schwan, Gary Vines, and Les Whiteside. We also formally initiated as sponsors Mr. Jim Bargh-ede and Dr. John Willhardt, and as sponsor/chaperone Mrs. Dorothy Brokaw.

One of our alumni, Tom Tessar, '72, star pitcher for the fighting Mules base-ball team last year, is now pitching for the Oakland Athletics.

Perhaps the best program we have initi-ated this fall is the formation of our Moms' Club, the first all campus. The Chapter is hosting 'an organizational meeting in January on a basketball week-end to finalize our plans.

vVe are taking many preparatory steps toward the acquisition of a house for our new chapter. With the support of our new Moms' Club, Little Sisters, our spon-sors and active alumni, we should ' be realizing the goal of a house soon.

Ray Wm. Smith

Chicago The Chicago Chapter is filled to capa-

city this year with active and concerned members. Although we are not allowed La rush until the winter quarter, we have given two parties through which we have lined up a number of prospective mem-bers. We have continued our successful program of Sunday dinners which serve both as unofficial rush functions and as a unifying factor in the house.

Committees have been formed to dis-cuss various improvements to the house, particularly to the kitchen area. Our members have been active in a wide variety of student organizations. On the whole, the house is progressing very well.

Clarkson The 1837 estate on 30 Elm has under-

gone extensive renovation. A sum of $15,000 was used to modernize our kitch-en, convert Dave's Room into a dining room and the old dining room into a combination Dave's Room and library. Our thanks to our Alumni Corporation and the alumni present at this year's corporation meeting who gave the project the go-ahead. vVe encourage all our alum-ni to visit the house and see the im-provements.

This semester we have made the finals in I.F .C. football and soccer and are looking fonvard to a strong year in all I.1

In intramural sports DU continues as the Avis of fraternity row. As so ' often hap-pens, we made it to the finals in touch football only to lose the championship in the last 14 seconds.

Dave DeLong

Colgate So far this fall our chapter has taken

part in all phases of fratemity life. Our chapter feels that it is important to be-come involved in community affairs as well as activities on the campus. Recently the brothers, headed by Jack Harrower, hosted a Halloween party for the under-privileged children of the area. Evidently, the brothers seemed to enjoy the party as much as the children and an affair along the same lines is being planned for the Easter holidays.

During August, Treasurer Rick Nangle attended the National Leadership Confer-ence held in Indianapolis. He returned with many helpful ideas which are pres-ently being implemented by our chapter.

Again this year the newly accepted pledge class has been very active in house functions and is ably carrying on the D.U_ tradition at Colgate.

This fall there are thirty-one brothers on the football squad and sixteen own starting positions. Looking ahead to the winter SpOltS' scene, the chapter will be well represented in basketball, swimming and wrestling.

Because of our annually large pledge classes and binding brotherhood, our house remains one of the strongest on campus.

Colorado A good fall rush here at Colorado net-

ted fourteen fine men: Joseph Appold, Phillip Dow, Brad Duft, Lawrence Herb-ert, Keith Huntel', John Giehl, Joseph Lockhart, Alan Nuemann, David Orvis, Craig Peterson, Benjamin Silva, Richard Steib, Mark Smith, and David 'Wilson. Our rush pl"Ogram saw rushees invited and encouraged to attend all house func-tions ranging from post-game parties to sorority exohange brunches.

Our endeavors in academics have prov-en ,successful as we will have two seniors attending law school next year and two seeking their graduate degrees in busi-ness . Star linebackers Dave Orvis and Ben Silva are busy preparing themselves for a post-season bowl game.

The advent of a guest speaker pl"Ogram on Thursday nights has brought everyone from political candidates to Playboy bun-nies to enlighten our members on various matters.

DAYTON-Members of the chapte1' strike an unusual group pose for the photographer to illustrate theiT letter.

Although our football record wasn't too outstanding, our team, under the leadership of coach Brother John Quinn, showed no less ability on the field than any other team this season.

Homecoming '72 was a great success. Our chapter as a whole supported it by backing a queen candidate. I'm sure the alumni Brothers who came back for that weekend had a very enjoyable time.

This year Dayton is the host for the Province Six Officers Conference. We are looking forward to seeing all attending Brothers and to gaining new ideas.

Delaware Just as the brothers of Delaware Chap-

ter were getting a good grasp on how to handle our new unstructured rush, a devastating series of overriding personal and academic factors resulted in a nearly-complete turnover of the executive com mittee. The temporarily elected govern-ment headed by Brother Larry Sontowski, pulled the Brotherhood together to avert a potentially disasterous situation.

Serving for the remainder of the semes-ter are: Larry Sontowski, president; Rich Noonan, vice-president and secretary; Frank DeSantis, treasurer; Dave Williams, chapter relations; and Jim Wakefield, executive committee member at large. In spite of the difficulties, we netted five pledges, and the outlook for the coming semester is better yet.

Successful fall activities included: the annual hayride, a Halloween costume party, a weekend trip to New York City, and the Christmas dinner dance.

A dynamic rush will be the principle concern of the spring semester as we ex-pect to lose 20 seniors through gradua-tion in June.

Dave Williams

Denison The first semester of the 1972-73 aca-

demic year was a great one all around for the DUs at Denison. A successful fall rush program resulted in a pledge class of 30 excellent freshmen, of whom we are extremely proud.

After losing quarterback Mike Beck, who sustained a broken wrist in the first game, the DU gridders recovered well enough to take second place in intramur-al football . This along with our solid showing in speedball gives us a strong start in our quest for the overall intra-mural crown.

The DUs also had their share of stars in intercollegiate football and soccer. Senior halfback Ed Exler broke the OAC career rushing record with over 4,000 yards, and closed out his career by playing for the West in the Ohio All-Star Shrine Game. Ted Gulyas was a defensive stand-out, breaking the OAC career record for interceptions, and tieing the single seas-on mark. Both Ed and Ted were first team all-OAC. In soccer, DU Geoff Mer-rill starred. Geoff, the captain, did not score as much as usual this season, but his play earned him a spot on the Ohio all-star team in a game against Indiana's all-stars. In that game Geoff was a stand-out. Geoff also has a good chance of being all-American.

The DUs also demonstrated their social conscience this semester. We decided to support an orphan in a foreign country and ate looking for the best program we can find. Junior Rick Hypes has organ-ized a recycling drive within the house, and the DUs are one of the biggest con-tributors of paper, cans and bottles to the Granville Recycling Center.

Our Christmas party was a huge suc-cess and all in all it has been a great semester for DU.

Tom Moran

DePauw With the second half of the school year ~bout to start, DU looks back on a very busy first semester. The usual competi-tion between fraternities during Rush :Week turned into open verbal battle between the Greek and anti-Greek forces on campus. But by week's end, the camp-us remained 80% Greek and DU took in a pledge class of seventeen.

Our special initiate this year is our housemother. Mom Walker is in her first year as a housemother and she is coming along just fine. Mom watches TV with us, comes to our dances, and helps in the preparation of some fantastic meals.

In fall intramurals DU took a turn for the better this year as we ended up third in football and first in bowling.

Alumni support continues to grow and with it comes improvements in the house. New rugs were purchased for the foyer and formal living room and the outside was improved when our driveways were blacktopped.

Overall the house is in good shape, but a large pledge class will be needed next year so our work is not over, it has just begun.

Florida The beginning of the 1972-73 year

found the Florida DU's working hard on rush and house improvements. Formal .rlIsh ended on September 25, with 12 'new pledges for the Fall quarter. Pledges are: Richard Bubil, Walter Brooks, Gregg Brewster, Fred Clark, Larry Garner, Joe Mizell, Richard Myers, Pat Patrick, Luis Piedrahita, Bill Pokorny, and Jim Ward.

This year has seen the DU's at Florida become more active than ever in campus-wide organizations. Some of these in-clude: Paul Rosenthal-Student Senator; Bill Herrman-Student Government Sec. for Academic Affairs; Clyde Wolfe-(SAMSON IS a volunteer service organiza-tion which has received nation-wide recog-nition for outstanding work in the com-munity.); Ric Baxley- volunteer work at the state women's prison, Lowell; CJ Walker- Alligat01' photographer, and many more. These are but a few of the things that have turned the Florida chapter more towards a service-oriented organization at Florida.

The Florida chapter finished #6 out of 27 in the Spring quarter academic standings of fraternities, just missing the #5 position by .001 grade points.

Quarterly activities thus far have in-cluded : Parents' Day in October; Found-er's Day banquet and Fall Frolics in early November; approximately 5 service pl'Oj-ects since the beginning of the quarter; and a visit by our Province Governor, Jay Gilchrist, and Leadership Consultant, Mike Bullock, during Homecoming week.

Brother Scott McConaughey is now on the varsity squad of the UF Golf Team.

Fresno A young but energetic core of officers

seL out to achieve greatness last fall. The officers were: Steve Kaiser, President; Chuck McMeechan, Vice President; Eliot Nahigan, Treasurer: Bob Pooclligian, Secretary; and Larry Esajian , Chapter Re lations Secretary . The first task involved finding a new home. Unfortunately the chapter was without a physical structure for a house. Meeting at schoolprovided facilities has proven adequate as the fol-lowing activities indicate.

We pledged eight new men this fall. aliI' pledgcs are: Robcrt Emhoff, Sam Chavcz, Dan Mcnconi, Jeny Deyoung, Stel'e l'aolcui, Larry Mulkey, David Sor-ensen, ami Mitch Nakashinan. vVe ob-served Founder's Day with a fine prime rib dinner and a discourse from Dr. Don Casperson , one of our faculty advisors. Little siste.r rush provided a new feminine touch to a fine one already present. The pre.sident of our Little Sisters movement is Pat vVatson and a car rally devised by the group was a succcss. 'Ve had a fin e Thanksgiving dinner headed by Steve Lopez and to help us get into the holiday mood was the swinging Christmas party.

On the sports scene DU won the intra-mural wrestling tournament. Brother Frank Tomasello is playing varsit.y base-ball this year.

vVe are working hard to find a new house and in the mean time our program consists of tight brot.herhood between brothers amI pledges. Our little sister program is a fantastic asset.

other areas during the past quarter. The DU entry in the anllllal Ramblin' Reck Parade t~ok second place to hig-hlig-ht the Chapter's homecoming activities. The football team also did well, finishing third in OUl' intramural league.

The annual Founder 's Day dinner was held on November 3. The Tech Chapter also uscd this occasion to celebrate the fifteenth anniversary of its installation. Chapter Deputy l."fonroc Edwards, Geor-g'ia Tech '51! , was the speaker.

After an active and successful fall quarter, the Georgia Tech Chaptcr is looking forward to a more successful winter quarter.

I Liinois With a '76 pledge class of 18 members,

the Illinois Chapter is in an excellent finandal position. l'ifty-dght men are currcntly living in the house and a record 60 are expected next semester.

Even morc important is the fact that the house's attitutlc has already reached its tremenclous peak of last year. Influen-tial factors were: a strong "A" football team which made all-university play-offs; a retreat to Pledge James Huppert's farm near Bloomington, Illinois; and a great pledge mother program coordinated by Brother Curtis Young.

In order to Qecotllc more involved in the Champaign-Vrbana cOllllllunity, many of us are now working with the Volun-teer Illini Projects "Pal Program" for the benefit of local underprivileged children.

Indiana The Indiana Chapter of Delta Upsilon

opened its doors in August to 43 brothers and 12 pledges. Many improvements had been made to add Lo the Brot.hers' com-fort ; the trim on the outside of the house was repaint.ed , a new ice machine was install ed , and a crumbling wall was replaced.

Rush got off the ground early with the final addit.ion of 10 more pledges who will IllUI'C intu the house at the semcst.er break. The twentytwo pledges making up the FaIll'kdge Class of 1972 are as folloll's: Bria11 Arledge, Bruce Bark-er, Jeff Cochran , Hill Curran, Richard Cmry, Steve i\Ia11or.

fohns Hopkins With the approaching of the holidays,

the DUs are feeling the true holiday spirit, Preparations are already under way for our annual party for under-privileged children. This is an occasion really enjoyed by all.

This year we are planning a truly special event. We are hoping to stage a marathon basketball game for charity. We are enlisting the support of students, business, alumni, and even brothers from neighboring chapters to make this a memorable activity. We hope to be able to report about our success later on.

Though we have no fall rush program here at Hopkins, we are getting acquaint-ed with many freshmen during this time. vVe are expecting a fine rush to strength-en our position as a dynamic force on campus,

Between our activities, the brothers manage to find time to actively pursue their academic careers. Not only are the DUs known for scholastic achievement, but we are equally renowned for our var-sity athletic contributions. Our house boasts the co-captains of the swimming team, as well as members of the soccer, basketball, fencing, track, and baseball teams.

It is evident here at the Hop that the DUs are doing it!

Kansas The Kansas DUs pledged the following

men this fall: Jeff Miller, Mark Zook, Rees Hughes, Dick Schmidt, Earl Cornell, Paul Miller, David Taylor, David Kegley, Tony Bertoglio, Mike Petit, Scott Baxendale, Rick Mudge, Stev~ Ballou, Clark O'Brien, Bill Geis, John Ban, Jeff Roth, Mike Broce, David Naster, John Boyd, Mike Dutton, Jim McLean, Scott Beeler, Ed Lister, Britt Buckley, and Kert . Rabe.

House scholarship has been going very well, . as evidenced in its 3.02 chapter average for last seniester. In addition to scholarship, the following DU brothers are playing varsity athletics: Rich Jones, Mike Cerne, Bob Helmbacher, Marc Har-ris, Odell Weidner, Rick Mudge, football; Tony Bertoglio, basketball; Tom Hodg-son, Scott Davies, David Kegley, swim-ming; and Scott Baxendale, gymnastics,

With a full- house and wide diversity of brothers, the Kansas chapter is looking forward to a very good year.

Kansas State Exciting and innovative ideas are be-

coming a reality at 1425 University Drive, Manha,tran . Our membership develop-'J:nent program is being further stimulated with speakers and variou's topics, 'Ve have recently moved to a committee-oriented all house duty idea and the house will be using committees to a great extent in establishing the rest of the tasks which are necessary to DU, 'Ve at Kansas State University are looking at each other to find more programs and capable people to initiate these programs.

DELTA UPSILON QUARTERLY. January, 1973

We have gone to a deferred rush status where only sophomores and upperclass-men are considered to be rushed. We hope this will . influence the type of per-,son as well as the ideas he can share with us .

I sincerey believe a more dedicated and lasting relationship has been estab-lished with our hard working alumni and we appreciate their support very much. It remains to be seen if theBe programs will work, yet a high degree of optimism and dedication are present so we will hope for much more established com-munication existing between all at DU-Kansas State University.

Kent State The Brothers and all the good peoplt

.'it Kent would like to say "Howdy." The Kent football team decided it was about time (22 years) to win the conference title .

It has been a good year for the frater-nity with onr active Brothers numbering now a' healthy 44 from 18 after graduat-

, ing a large class last year. The all-sports trophy has been permanently added to our collection 3!fter winning it three years

,. consecutively, setting a university intra-mural record with 491 points.

Our address is 312 E. Main Street. Come see us! .

Lehigh The big news at the Lehigh Chapter

of Delta Upsilon is that we had finished second among 31 Lehigh fraternities scholastically ' at the end of the spring semester. This was due to the intense scholaTShip program led by Chuck Wolfe.

Now we are in the midst of our fall rush program "thich, under the direction of Vince Wilt (fonner "Outstanding Pledge"), has prospects of being one of our most successful efforts in several years. Much ' of this success can be at-tributed to a very diverse social schedule.

Following a visit by Mike Bullock, Leadership Consultant, we have re-vamped our alumni relations progl;am. vVe have also begun sending out a regu-lar newsletter, and thus far, the response has been very ericouraging. W' c are also expecting a large alumni turnout for Lehigh-Lafayette weekend, which repre-sents the 108th meeting of these two teams.

In athletics, Brothers Stiver and Cicale are playing varsity soccer this year, with Brother Stiver acting as co-captain. Brother Nell , pa'rticipated in rugby, and Brother McKenna is on the varsity swim-ming team. vVe have also elected a new faculty advisor, ' 'Dr. Willard Murray, a civil engineering professor who is a brother from the ,Wisconsin, Chapter of Delta Upsilon. _,

Louisville The Louisville DU "Demons", under

the coaching of alumni Gary Tuell, won the Intramural football league's fraternity division and swept the all-campus crown with an undefeated season. The high-light of the season was an overtime vic-tory over the arch-rival Phi Tau's to win the fraternity league championship.

New officers were elected by the chapter in November. John Crawley is the new president. The Executive , VP is Kerry Manning and the Administrative VP is Charlie Fearneyough. Mark Lenahan will be in charge of the finances, with rush being handled by George ,Kirwan.

A plan to alleviate problem areas in chapter operations has been implemented by the chapter under the guidance of alumnus Bob Brand. The plan places one alumnus, one chapter officer, and one pledge in charge of an area of chapter operations. This group is responsible for pinpointing problems, setting goals, and achieving these, goals within a two month period with the help of the chapter. We have great expectations for this plan.

An increasing number of alumni are visiting the house to see what we've been doing. v'ITc hope everyone feels free to come to the house and meet your younger DU brothers.

Maine Coming off a strong fall rush program,

the DUs at Maine are looking forward enthusiastically to next semester. The rush program got an initial boost when several cars of DUs and potential pledge prospects journeyed to Storrs, Connecti-cut for the Maine vs. U . of Connecticut football game. v'ITe have, to date, initiated ten pledges this fall. These men are: Michael Benjamin, Eric Bei'g, James Bryan, Michael Callahan, Richard Daig-neault, David Dore, Mark Hayes, Kenneth

. Hodgdon, David JefferY; and Michael Williams.

.' Both pledges and brothers ' have joined together to make our third annual DU Turkey Raffle the biggest success ever. The proceeds from this go 'to help sup-port our orphan, Randy Bogle, a Chero-kee Indian in Oklahoma.

Our pledge project for this fall was ' a ' collection of toys and clothing for the needy. The pledges have esta.blished col-lection points in the area and will dis-tribute these materials as Christmas gifts.

After an extremely active fall, the Maine DUs are looking ahead, verY" op-timistically, to the New Year.

Founder's Day Stag this year brought many alumni to the fraternity house, and

wa~ a very successful evening enjoyed by all. As last year for our Initiation FOlm-aI, we are expecting quite a few alumni to join with us in January to bring the Class of '76 into D.U., and D.U. to the Class of '76.

Our annual D.U. Car Rally was held in October, and thanks to Bruce Hanson who organized the rally, it was an event enjoyed by the navigators and drivers of the thirty-eight cars entered in the Rally.

vVe are expecting a strong Fraternity year for '72, '73; this year's pledge class, alumni interest, and general Manitoba D.U. spirit making the Manitoba Chapter the best yet.

Marquette The Marquette Chapter of Delta Upsi-

lon is completing a very successful fall schedule. Thanks to five year veteran Dennis Pandl, the DUs finished another fine football season (2nd) and are look-ing forward to the start of the basketball season.

Now that midterm grades are out, it looks like we will retain the interfraterni-ty scholarship award we were awarded for the first time last year.

Our newly elected sweetheart, Miss Peg Noonan, has proven to be a delight-ful addition to the fraternity. We are really going to hate to leave at Christmas, but the mountains beckon.

Maryland This has been an active and busy

semester for the DUs at the University of Maryland. The semester began with rush, and through the hard work of our alumni and brothers seven young men were pledged.

Another important fall activity was our annual chari,ty project during home-coming. vVe sold balloons at the football game for 25 cents each. i 'Ve didn't sec much of the game that day, but through the hard work of everyone involved, we raised over ,$200 for Children's Hospital in Washington, D.C.

November brought Founder's Day, our first as the Maryland Chapter of Delta Upsilon. A dance, with a buffet dinner was held. Many chapter alumni attended, quite a few of whom we had not seen for a while. November also saw the com-pletion of our football intramurals and placed us in the playoffs. i ,Ve did not win the title, but we finished the season with a four win and three loss record.

December brought the initiation of our seven new junior actives and the end of the semester.

To all vVashington area DUs: vVe've been wanting to get in contact with each of you, but since you number over 4,000 it would be rather difficult.

You can give us a little help by dropping us a line. Tell us what you are doing. You can write to us or our Chapter Deputy, Donald R. Heacock, % Alex Brown and Son, 730 15th Street, Wash-ington, D. C. 20005. vVe are most an-xious to hear from you.

J1!Jiami This quarter at Miami University has

kept all the brothers quite busy. We sponsored a party for 30 orphans from Butler County Children's Home. The party was a great success, the kids. en-joyed themselves and we werc certamly glad to have them.

Dr. and Mrs. Roy Reinhart of Oxford, Ohio were selected this year as Miami University's Parents of the Year and were guests of Miami on Parents' Day. Dr. Reinhart is a Miami DU from the class of 1941.

At the annual Parents' Day dinner at the DU house, Mr. vVatson R. Pults '11, was presented the Miami Alumnus of the Year Award by Bill Brodie, chapter presi-dent. This is an award recently created to honor outstanding Miami DU alumni who have continually distinguished them-selves in servicc toward the local chapter.

Elections were recently held for house officers. The results were: Dan Puttoff, vice president; Tom Goodwin, secretary; John Streicher, assistant treasurer; Jim Donnangelo, scholaTShip; John Hosner, chapter relations; John Rhodes, assistant social chairman; Mike Buckley, photogra-pher; Darrell Morehead and Mike Don-nally, IFC representatives; and Mike Tinge!y, protocol chairman.

Miami DUers are preparing for spring rush. Activities have been planned well in advance. This year emphasis is being placed on individual rush rather than the more traditional rushs we have con-ducted in past years. The prospects look very good, and we have had several out-standing individuals ask about Delta Upsilon. i>Ve expect the vigorous program we are adopting to produce the best rush ever this spring.

1I1ichigan The DU chapter at Michigan is proud

to announce that fraternities are once again on the upswing and the DUs led the way with the largest fall pledge class on campus, numbering 18. These new pledges are an ambitious lot of men, and have vowed to keep the DU spirit strong.

In addition to the boost in member-ship, the chapter house has received a boost in the way of a $13,000 renovation program m

Scholastically the over-all grade-point average will be raised by nearly one point-Everyone in the whole house really hit the books and still managed to have an excellent social quarter.

The big social event of the quarter was our annual Dream Girl dance. One lucky girl out of fourteen sororities was chosen as our Dream Girl. 'Winter quarter promises more activities, with the annual cultural exchange with the Manitoba chapter coming up. We hope the whole chapter will be able to come.

The Minnesota chapter took big strides in Greek leadership on a campus with a weak Greek system. After our Monday night meetings we would invite several Greeks over to rap and try to know each other better. It has been a profitable experience.

A Minnesota Viking football player was the chapters' guest as we celebrated our all-university touch-football champion-ship! ''''e put together a tight team under the leadership of Nick Aguilar. Leo Mrozek, Lars Frederickson, and Randolph Johnson placed first, second and third respectively in the university ping-pong tourney.

One dark spot in the house was the drafting of one of our finest new men, John van Vleet. ''''e are expecting him home just before Christmas.

In closing, we wish all our brother ohapters goad luck like we have been experiencing.

lYIISSOURI-Enjoying the company at some at the Little Sisters seems to be pa'ltiwlarly tJotmlm' this year.

Missouri Missouri came home victorious from

the International Convention this past summer with the Best Chapter Publica-tions and Most Improved Chapter awards. 'We're considering building a new trophy case for our two publications awards in the last three years.

The house got a new kitchen this sum-mer, after the fire that destroyed it in the spring. The brothers had to eat in a women's dormitory cafeteria for the last two weeks of the semester, and some

other fraternities might have had thoughts of intentionally burning up their kitchens. Om alumni have practically rebuilt the entire chapter house. A new living room, chapter room, bedrooms and kitchen in the last five years.

Since there is not enough space to list all 38 pledges, these are the pledge class officers: Ed Gray, president; Mike Con-way, vice president; Jim Newman, treas-urer; Bud Middleton, secretary; Casey Klepper, social chairman; Rusty Harris, athletic chairman; and Mike Hanna, chaplain.

The DUs all enjoyed the Big Eight football season and the five bowl games especially with Brothel' Larry Frost par-ticipating as defensive lineman.

Greg Beckmann

Nebraska The first semester has been a busy

time for the Nebraska Chapter. The year began with an excellent summer and formal rush program which resulted in a pledge class of 36 men. With our con-tinually progressive pledge program we hope to develop these men into strong DUs. Our Help Week and initiation cere-monies have been planned for early February.

New living room furniture and carpet-ing are our most recent additions to the chapter house, thanks to a $1000 dona-tion from our Mothers' Club. For our next major improvement we hope to purchase new drapes, possibly by the end of this year.

For the second year our chapter has houseparents instead of a housemother. Both are graduates of N.U. and were members of Greek houses. This system has proved very successful to our chapter and is being used at many other houses on our campus.

We are especially proud this year of our brothers on the Nebraska athletic teams. vVe are represented in football, basketball, wrestling, swimming', and baseball. Needless to say, we are avid Corn husker backers.

Among activities surrounding Home-coming was our annual Alumni Smoker. Because of increased alumni attendance, preparations are already being made for our spring Alumni Banquet. Of interest is a project presently being' undertaken by our Corporation Board members. Co-ordinated by Brother Lloyd C. Castner, these men arc updating our alumni mail-ing records beyond even the effort of International and our fraternity services in order to ease the Undergraduate Clla pter's efforts to con tact and inform our graduate Brothers.

A concentrated effort on scholarship last semester proved successful as our house average was above the all-men's average and among the top six in frater-nit.ies. Improved social and cultural pro-grams have helped round out a produc-ti ve semester.

DELTA UPSILO" QUARTERLY. January) 1973

lVorth Carolina After enjoying a long summer, the

brothers of North Carolina returned to Chapel Hill ready to make this another outstanding year for our chapter. During Fall Rush, which was unusually light this year for all fraternities on campus, the chapter got ten pledges: Arthnr Palfrey Bode; Drew Patrick Cobbs; Edwin Dun-can, III; Richard Barksdale Gant, Jr.; Frederick Tyler Hill; John Wellman Kelley; Christopher Kenyon Orrick; James Wallace Burnette, Jr.; Robert Michael i'Valtemeyer; David Lawrence i'Vingate. On the Friday afternoon preceding the Duke football game, a beer party was sponsored by the chapter at one of the more active residence colleges in an at-tempt to generate new interest in Rush among underclassmen. The idea of a much more active informal Rush throughout the year has been well-received by the brotherhood.

Homecoming weekend was highlighted by a steak dinner for alumni prepared by undergraduate brothers and served at the house. Such dinners are a great way t.o avoid current high banquet costs and improve or initiate undergraduate-alum-ni interaction.

The visit of Province Four Governor Jay Gilchrist in November was a ter-rifically unifying experience for the chapter. During his visit, plans for joint intraprovince activities were discussed.

The chapter is represented on campus this year by the editor of the campus newspaper, chairmen of the Publication Board and the Carolina Forum, student legislators, and members of the varsity soccer, lacrosse, swimming, and fencing teams.

Ned LiPford

North Dakota By the completion of our fall rush

program, we pledged 20 young men. We feel that these men, while not a large number, are of a quality which is hard to find. Our fall rush program was set on the idea that we would not accept people we felt were not good prospects simply to fill a quota. Our idea worked well and all of our pledges are active in their pledge education program. Our pledges are as follows: Mark Brawn, Dean Bruschwein, Craig Campbell, Andy Finsness, Greg Hanson, Steve Johnson, Bob Kingsbury, Rodney Larson, Dave Maltry, Bruce Marsden, Tony Mislin, Bob Moe, Mark Moret, Steve Rekken, Paul Ronnigen, Bob Rust, Scott Sayer, Mike Kuklok, Mark Tabelius, Bill Wil~ gel's.

Financially the house is in very good shape. vVe are looking forward to a brand new house which will be ready for oc-cu pancy at the beginning of school in the fall of 1973.

Our sports program is in full swing, with our bowling, hockey, and basketball teams all doing very well on campus.

North Dalzota State The activity of our chapter this fall

centered around the remodeling of the house which was done by the brothers. The new look of our lounges has re-ceived many compliments and we see it as an added plus for the winter quarter rushing schedule.

Along with the planned rushing for new prospective brothers will be the rushing of new little sisters under the direction of Brothel' Lukach, who has lead the pro-gram in its first year.

The Annual Province Nine Softball Tournament, which was started last year under the ol'ganization of Brother Kurt Eichmeier, was a success in bringing the brothers of the province together to acquaint all with other fellow brothers in DU. The play proved somewhat bi-ased as our chapter went 'away with the winning trophy, a fitting tribute to the N .D .S.U. chapter and the effort of the brothers.

November fourth marked the annual observance of our chapter's founding date. This year it was held along with our parents' day and the activities in-cluded a social hour, banquet and dance which were held at the new Holiday Inn of Fargo. Alumni, parents and brothers turned out for the occasion which was accented by the address of Mrs. Ellen Kilander, Assistant Dean of Women on campus, who gave us an interesting talk on the functions of a fraternity in re-spect to campus life. The address con-tained many points of interest that we hope will give us a new inspiration and lead us towards having a far better chapter on campus.

NORTHERN ILLINOIS-Little Sistel's tTOm the NOTthem Illinois ChapteT add much to, cilajJter social events.

Northern Illinois Fall semester 1972 saw the Northel'l1

Illinois Chapter strengthen and build its consistent top position among fra-ternities on campus.

Eighteen excellent men compose the pledge class which outlines our year TOlll1d rush program. They are: Lou Angellotti, Kent Sabin, Scott Eckert, Rene Mathis, Dave Hildebrand, Craig Lasher, Alan Davison, Jim Morrison, Jim Ed-

wards, Gil Palm, Bob Rawls, Steve Smith, John Flynn, Pat Stearns, Jim Hallbel'g, Brad Marsden, Barry Haigh, and Greg Mulloy.

The DU football season was a success-ful campaign, while basketball hopes to be extremely exciting. Our intramural basketball team defeated its first op-ponent 130-2, breaking a school recordl

Meanwhile, Brothers Bob Cherry and Mike Maibach were selected to Who's Who in Am,erican Colleges and Univel'-sities. Brother Tom Shafer was appointed sports editor of the school newspaper following the appointment of Brothel' Gary Benson to the position of political editor.

A new community based "dinner with the brothers" program featured distin-guished faculty and townspeople at the DU house.

Ten'y Sinclail'

Northern Iowa For the Northern Iowa Chapter of

Delta Upsilon, fall rush was very success-ful with fourteen fine men who pledged our chapter.

The pledges have been busy this fall. Their most successful activity was "Trick or Treating" for UNICEF where they raised $200.

This fall also brought 16 pledges to our little sister organization, the Bee Gees.

Chapter Relations Committee, headed by Barry Cory, planned a highly success-ful Dad's Day. The parents were treated to a football game followed by a chicken dinner. Parents Club met to elect new of-ficers and plan activities for the rest of the year. The day was highlighted by the initiation of 13 pledges.

Brotherhood is a high priority at our house. Led by Stev~ CraWford, as presi-dent, we have strengthened these ties this semester wi th acti vi ties such as get-

. ting together once a week for a meal cooked by the brothers.

Sports, of course, play an important part, this year we are intramural foot-ball champs. We also took four out of six events in the Greek Olympics.

The fall 19.72 has been successful and spring 1973 looks promising. The North-ern Iowa Chapter is moving forward and looking to the future with many hopes and plans.

Northwestern Fall quarter is always busy for the

D.U.'s at Northwestern, especially for the seventeen brothers who are on the football squad. Offensive tackle Dave Glantz, fullback Harold Smith, and line-backer Rob Mason were starters on the Wildcat team which posted a 2-9 record. Senior quarterback and D.U. Todd Somers started the season for the Cats, and threw a touchdown pass against Ohio State on an old-fashioned flea flicker. DU Rick

Sund, N.U. basketball MVP as a sopho-more, tried his hand at football, and saw

a lot of playing time at split end. Another player, Joe Otis, traveled to Australia last summer with the Big Ten All-Stars.

Our Homecoming alumni reception was vcry successful. All N.U: alumni are in-vited to next years reception following the homecoming game. The Mothers' Club sponsored the annual Christmas Party, held on December 8, to, which International Fraternity president James McLeod was invited. Brother McLeod is a former Dean of Students at North-western, and resides here in Evanston.

Officers for the first half of the 72-73 school year arc Ron Thompson, presi-dent; Joe Otis, vice president & chapter relations secretary; Rick Thompson, sec-retary; Kirk Moul, social chairman; ,and Steve Moy, treasurer.

W' e look forward to a successful second semester, and to more communication with alumni and other chapters of DU.

Ohio Fall quarter this year began with an

addition of seven pledges; Don Pocek, Dean Boeh, Dan Hostick, Earl Wacken-heim, Ron Rosenfeld, Mike Schilling, and Max Myers. These new pledges bring our chapter up to 52 members.

Elections were held recenUy and our new officers will take office in January. Those elected were: Brothers Edward Deutch, president; Pete Porter, vice-president; and Jay Dennis, treasurer.

Also of special interest, t.he Little Sister Program was abolished in our chapter due to its lack of support by the brothers.

The Ohio Chapter is speculating on another good year and is looking forward to its new officers' administration.

Lenny Zangardi

Ohio State The Ohio State Chapter had a very

successful summer rush pledging thirteen new men. Fall rush was slow, bringing in only three new members. The brothers guarantee that rush will improve greatly next semester.

New initiates this fall were all from Ohio: Jacob Rabatin of Montville; Gary Koch of Parma; George Carstenson of Bono; Lee Imhof of Burton and 'Wayne Crow of Columbus. All have great po-tential for improving the chapter.

We were happy to accomodate pledge classes from Bowling Green State Univer-sity and Northern Illinois University. Some of them were guests at our Michi-gan victory party following that inCl'ed-ible win.

Little Sister rush was a complete suc-cess. This fall, sixteen new girls joined the ranks. This increases to twenty-five the number of girls now in the Little Sisters.

D .U. participation in inter-collegiate athletics has been highlighted this fall by the football performances of line-

The chapter has elected new officers. Taking over winter quarter are: Joseph Governal, president; Thomas Butler, ad-ministrative VP; Thomas Clagus, social VP; Frederick Claugus, treasurer and Michael Dahler, secretary.

Oldahoma Adding' 15 pledges to oui: chapter roll,

the Oklahoma Chapter embarked upon an active year.

In order to obtain a mme objective look at ourselves, the chapter as a whole participated in a Tetreat at the Christian Renewal center in Oklahoma City. By this we were able to set definite goals fm the ensuing year.

In our major undertaking for . the semester, we teamed up with Kappa Kappa Gamma sorority in an effmt to run a football to the OU-Texas game to raise money fm Muscular Dystrophy.

By challenging the Texas chapter to do the same, we were able to raise over $11,000.00. The run itself took about 40 Ius. actual running time: But we all agree that we'd run a mile for one of their smil.es.

Oklahoma State Upon returning to the "House on

Hester" this fall, small, but significant changes could be noticed. Possibly one of the most significant was the refurbishing of our kitchen facilities which included a new, automatic dishwasher and a new cook. I am sure most will agree that a good food service can directly . affect a chapter's growth as well as its health.

The acquisition of a strong 18 man Un pledge class over the summer filled the house to capacity with some left over. Because of this, the chapter's annex immediately next door was sold and moved leaving space for our proposed apartment type expansion, hopefully to be completed by fall of 1973.

Intramurally, the football team ended with a 6-2 record and a disappointing fourth place ill the All-Fraternity rank-ings.

Because of an idea received at .the Con-vention last summer, the house co-spon-smed with our auxiliary, a benefit Hallo-ween Spook House for the children of Stillwater. The immediate success could only be seen in the delight of the chil-clren. The free-will donations given by the parents of those in attendance went to the Hearthstone Home outside of Still-water.

In retrospect, the much needed reforms achieved at last summer's International Convention in Indianapolis seem to have put confidence and vitality into our chapter's growth .. The first semester can only mirroT things to come here at Okla-homa State.

J. Robelt Johnson

Oregon State For the second year the Oregon State

Chapter had a very successful fall rush. We now have a pledge class of 22 which places us sixth among the 29 fraternities on campus. Those that pledged Delta Upsilon Oregon State are Paul Billips, Harold Bump, Joe Bennett, Dave Haynes, Rich Irish, Dave Kean, Tim McDonald, Keith McGilvery, Jerry Merklin, Lars Milling, Tom Moore, Greg Peyran, Pete Rose, Steve Ross, Rogel' Schweitz, Dave Shaw, Jim Sloan, MaTk Spraule, Warren Ulrish, Tom Whittfmth, Ian Withers.

This year we have started a very strong scholarship-big brother program. The program places the big brother in a po-sition to help ' his little brother learn good study habits. vVe hope that through this we will cut down the number of freshmen pledges leaving school because of grades.

A new program we tried this year was turn-around day. Fm a period . of 24 hours the pledges assume the rights of members, and the members become pledges. It was a very enlightning time for all involved.

Oshkosh With the new school year underway,

bhe DUs at University of Wisconsin-Oshkosh find the bite of Cupid hitting hard at our ranks. Over the summer four brothers said "I do" and. things are look-ing to a possible few more. Along with the upcoming graduation of several more of us, we find ourselves in the position of becoming a young fraternity once again.

DELTA UPSILON QUAH.TERLY January) 1973

Our most recently initiated members are actively participating in developing a new program of rush. We are all op-timistic about the results of the program and what appears to be a successful idea.

Our social committee, sparked by the efforts of Little Sis Chris Funk, has 01'- . ganized a first semester calendar which should bring about welcome change to our gatherings and activities.

The Brothers and Little Sisters are looking forward to a few changes in what should be a memorable year for all of us.

Penn State It looks like the DU Brothers here at

Penn State are in for a fine year both scholastically and athletically. At the present time there are five brothers playing varsity football for the Nittany Lions. They are: Jack Baiorunus, John Clark, James Heller, Ralph Perry, and Mike Spires. Brothers Baiorunus and Heller are both doing fine jobs at center and defensive tackle, respectively, and we are expecting great things from all of them.

In the way of intramural sports the house looks to be in good standing. In intramural football we lost a close game to the Phi Delts and closed out the season with five wins and one loss. Our basketball team is looking very well and our bowling team has performed admir-ably in the first few matches of the season.

The scholastic picture looks bright in the brotherhood as we have moved from 48th to 18th in standings among fraterni-ties within the last year, we are hoping to move even higher. Brother John Wea-graff is presently in contention for an interfraternity schOlarship here at Penn State.

There are presently two important pro-grams under discussion at the house. The first is a plan to expand the house's little : sister program and this is being headed by Brother Gary Cutshell. The second program is a community service project under discussion by the execu-tive committee.

The house is fortunate to have five new . pledges: Joseph Conti, John Malone, Wayne Packer, James Phelps, and Robert Szumowski.

The officers for the house this year are: Richard Hellberg, president; Michael Rost, vice president; Leo Bernabucci; treasurer; and Frank Friedl, secretary.

Platteville This will be a difficult year for the

Platteville Chapter of Delta Upsilon. Although we are still one of the most reputable chapters on campus, last year's graduation left our rank of members ' de-pleted. We have a solieL base on which to rebuilq., however, comprised of many talented and ambitious members willing to work hard in' future rush activities.

.19

We plan to try and get away from formal rush this next semester in order to give ourselves some flexibility. This semester we are initiating three pledges: Greg Govier, Dan '",,01, and Doug Johnson.

Earlier this semester we organized our first annual Parents Day. All parents of members and Little Sisters were invited. Barbecued chicken was served and Chancellor Bjarne Ulsvik was our guest speaker. The event was engineered by Brother Pratt and turned out to be a big success. Our annual Homecoming banquet was also a big success this year, with many alumni l'eturning for the Homecoming festivities.

Our chapter had three members in-volved in fall sports this year. Brothers Christenson and Crouch were starters for our soccer team which took second place in the conference. Brother Chris-tenson, who holds an office in the fra-ternity and was elected to a seat on the Student Council, was named MVP and co-captain for next year's soccer team. Brother Cooper, a starter on last year's football team, was again a starter this season.

Our scholarship standing dropped somewhat last year, and as a result we arc going to strengthen our interfrater nity tutoring- service and enlarge our academic files. We will also be pu tting more em phasis on getting names on our three point plaque.

Purdue This is a time in the life of the Purdue

Chapter when a new spirit has become evident. "Ve are on our way to a point where Purdue will once again be Delta Upsilon in Everything and Every DU in Something.

' ,Ve know the Chapter has let the alumni down in the not too distant past, but the undergraduates within the Chap tel' at present want to reestablish them selves. "Ve wish to say to our alumni that we are truly proud to be able to have such a great bunch of alumni.

Homecoming went especially well this year, and the response to the mailings was simply fantastic. I personally have learned more about the fraternity in the last two months than I had ever known before. I have also learned a very important word in the pro
