Scott; and bottom right, Walter L Marr. -ryrr-^' -""-WmSF-'K' PRESIDENT'S PAGE I am happy to report that the Executive Council voted at its last meeting, to send a copy of our fraternity magazine The Diamond of Psi Upsilon to all living alumni, whose classes were prior to 1924 and who are not subscribers. All members since that date became life subscribers upon paying their initiation fee. This will include about 2000 members of Psi Upsilon. Through revamping and modernizing our bookkeeping procedures and by some donations, this policy has been made possible. I can report our chapters are flourishing but as could be expected there are some rather minor problems in a few of them. Our chapter at Williams College, while vig orous and successful, is experiencing a trying time due to unsettled developments on college policy by the administration. This afiFects all fratemities at Williams. Our alumni of this chapter in concert with other Williams alumni, are following this situa tion very intelligendy and closely. Psi Upsilon wants to keep all of our alumni abreast of our affairs, and particularly our older and senior brothers. In these changing times, where most fine things are under attack, we all want to have our beloved fratemity carry on its noble traditions of fine friendship amongst fine men. Robert W.

  • Famed CU Coach Eddie Crowder Dies Page 1 of 3
    Famed CU coach Eddie Crowder dies Page 1 of 3 Famed CU coach Eddie Crowder dies By Neill Woelk Wednesday, September 10, 2008 Eddie Crowder, the man who took Colorado’s football program to national prominence as a coach and set the stage for one of the school’s most successful eras as its athletic director, died Tuesday of complications from leukemia. He was 77. Crowder leaves an unmatched legacy at CU. No other man has had more of an influence on Colorado’s athletic department, with that influence spanning more than four decades. As the football coach for 11 years, Crowder led CU to a No. 3 finish in the nation in 1971, five bowl games and a 67-49-2 record, including CU’s first 10-win season in 1971. As CU’s athletic director for 20 years, he took Colorado into the era of big-time college athletics. He also recovered from what he would later call his “biggest mistake” — the hiring of Chuck Fairbanks as the Buffs’ football coach — to set the stage for what would become a golden era of CU athletics. “Eddie Crowder held Colorado athletics together,” said former Big Eight commissioner Chuck Neinas. “Let’s be candid — Colorado has never had the resources of an Oklahoma or Nebraska. “But in large part, they’ve been able to compete with those schools on a fairly regular basis because of the efforts of a guy like Eddie.” Crowder’s influence is still being felt at CU. Two of his final hires were football coach Bill McCartney and women’s basketball coach Ceal Barry, both of whom led the Buffs to unprecedented national prominence.

  • Coach Vince Lombardi, the Power of Example, a Tribute
    THE COFFIN CORNER: Vol. 18, No. 5 (1996) Coach Vince Lombardi, the Power of Example, a Tribute By Victor Mastro and Johnny Shevalla "Do you know that all who run in a race, all indeed run, but only one receives the prize, so run ye to obtain it." (St. Paul) In the locker before each game coach Lombardi, down on his knees, with his Green Bay Packers, loved to quote this passage from St. Paul and pray with his players. General Norman Schwartzkopff's last message to his troops before the Persian Gulf War was Lombardi's "Will to Win" speech: "Believe in God, believe in yourself, strive to excel, believe in human decency, the desire, the will to win. I firmly believe in an individual. In life as in the game of football, he who works his heart out for a good cause, lies exhausted on the field of battle... victorious." In 1961 after Green Bay beat the New York Giants, 37-0, Vince was feted at a testimonial, and when he stood up for his acceptance speech Lombardi was so emotionally overwhelmed at the response, he just stood, looked around, and his eyes filled with tears. He finally spoke, "I was blessed with parents who encouraged and supported me." Lombardi showed us that the strongest force in man is gentleness, love. "If you play together as a team, you've got to care for one another, you've got to love each other, then you know you've got a team." (Be men for others, and serve others).
