In 1963 the Psi Upsilon Fraternity, after much study, instituted a Program which emphasized the modernization of our operations. Among other things, the new program provided for a larger and more com municative "Diamond," a full time knowledgeable operating staff at headquarters and Chapter Standards to serve as a guide to our chapters. The Convention called for the study of our Constitution with a promise to amend it so that it would be more in step with today's educational world. We spent most of last year acquainting our under graduates and Alumni with the significance of the Program, not only to assure verbal subscription of its tenets, but to further its active implementation. By the conclusion of Convention 1964, we had instaUed our full time staflF and amended our Consti We will have a specifically designed campaign, tution so as to make it more effective. We encouraged among others, for those chapters which rush fresh each of our chapters to adopt an individual chapter men at the beginning of the fall semester.

Amos Alonzo Stagg, Beta '88, was bom in West Orange, New Jersey, on August 16, 1862, a year before the Gettysburg Address and seven years before Rutgers and Princeton began American collegiate football. His origins and early life were con siderably less than modest. He was the fifth of eight children born to a shoemaker and general laborer. His early character was shaped by pover ty, principle and hard work. This descendant of Colonial Ameri can stock, removed from the Revolu tion by less than a century, was grad EMBODIMEHTOF-i;?f lOOll'.MJl) uated from Orange High School after THROUGH M/-.KV three years.

That year he set a record by striking out 20 against Princeton. During his stay at Yale, the Eli never lost a Big Three game. Stagg received many substantial offers to tum professional, but refused all, choosing not to associate himseff with what he considered the loose- principled professional athletes of his time. He later explained "There was a bar in every park and the whole tone of the game was smelly." His early relationship with football could best be described as a slight flirtation; it was a new game to him. He had seen his first coUege game in 1883 and tried it out briefly during (World Wide Photo) the two years. following Amos Alonzo Stagg, Beta '88, and his two sons, Paul, Omega '32 (left), and Amos Jr., Omega He retumed to the game seriously '21 (right), represent 166 years of cumulative Psi U brotherhood.

Few of our distinguished brothers have given more of their time, interest and devotion to Psi Upsilon than did R. Bourke Corcoran, Omega '15. With his passing we suffer an irreparable loss. From the time of his ini tiation in the Omega chapter at the University of Chi in 1911 until his cago death, on April 3, 1965, he gave over fifty years of dedicated service to our Fraternity. The same zeal, spirit and dedication permeated all the Fsi U projects with which he was associated. It was indeed fitting that the Psi Upsilon Foundation, Inc., should call on his genius for organization and his un selfish and sincere concern for his brothers.

Alongside such dormitories, the average chapter house looks pretty grubby. A man usually has to be wUling to accept some personal dis of comfort today if he wants to be a fraternity member. The second and even tougher and more subtle com petitor today is the widely-circulated suggestion that fraternities are no longer important�that, in fact, fra temities may be harmful to the process of education. THE Many good fraternity prospects are coming to college today with that indoctrination. To sell them your fraternity, you first must sell them the fraternity system. These are the rushing problems we face today that weren't even contemplated in "the good old days." But, though the problems have changed completely in the last decade or so, rushing techniques still follow very much the same old patterns. We still concentrate on rushing against each other, and over look the real competition. It is high time that we all realize that it's no longer good enough, or even halfway smart, to down-grade the other fraternities in rush. If the Betas knock the By Orvilue H.

Now let me tell you some features of Brand A which makes it the best on the market." Down the street. Salesman B says, "Color TV doubles your watch ing pleasure. Brand B has some special features which we think will particularly appeal to you." Soon you're really enthusiastic about color TV. Now it's just a question of which set you select and enjoy. Someone is going to sell a color TV set. It's easy to translate this into fratemity terms. If the rushee first visits the AAA house and they say, "Watch out for BBB. Their house is in bad shape.

Otis J. Dypwick, Mu '32, sports information director of the Uni versity of Minnesota, passed the following statistics along to The Diamond desk concerning Brother John Hankinson, the Gophers' outstanding quarterback. the individual school Of eight records set during the 1964 season, John lays claim to four of them and was party to two others. His individual records were:

most yards gained passing in one season 1048 most yards gained passing in conference games 842 most passes attempted in one season 178 most passes completed in one season 86 The two records with which John was involved were: most passes received in a single season by Aaron Brown 27 most yards gained in a single season by pass receiving by Kent Kramer 342 The 1964 team also established a Minnesota record for most yards gained by passing vs. conference competition�946. The pigskin picture in the Twin Cities' area is bright. John Hank inson will be back next year to call the plays for coach Murray Warmath. The 1965 edition of the Gopher gridders will be led by another Psi U, guard, captain and All-Big Ten Scholastic, Paul Faust.

Amherst College and the Gamma chapter lay claim to one of the nation's best collegiate squash players. Tom Poor inherited his squash abihty from his father, Henry, Gamma '39, Amherst's top player from 1936 through his graduation year. Henry Poor is now headmaster of Montclair Academy and a member of the Psi Upsi lon Executive Council.

Tom captained both the soccer and squash teams his freshman year as well as playing second man on the tennis squad. He moved into the varsity #1 position as a sophomore and reached the quarter final round of the National Intercollegiate tournament, ranking eighth in the country. As a junior he reached the finals of the Christ mas tournament in New York before losing to Vic Niederholder from Harvard, who has proven to be Tom's nemesis. Tom was crowned champion of Connecticut and Western Massa chusetts and went on to the IntercoUegiates, only to lose to Niederholder. In this, his junior year, he was the first Amherst player ever to be invited to play in the U. S. National Amateur A Championships in Annapolis. He was ranked second in the country

. . . Niederholder was first. As a senior Tom served as co-captain of the soccer team and /y^*,. captain of the squash squad. He was undefeated in regular season matches. He went to the quarter-finals of the Canadian Nationals in Montreal and to the second round of the U. S. Nationals, losing to Niederholder once again. Tom was president of the Gamma chapter and of the Amherst Fraternity Management Committee. He hopes to enter secondary school education.

Theta has not been very active in other areas besides scholarship. A brief summary of some of the house's ac tivities so far this year and some of those planned for the future will illus trate this point. During fall quarter, under the direction of Tony Zubick, we successfully built a huge home coming sign, complete with moving parts, which was acclaimed by all the competing houses as the best sign in the contest. Unfortunately, mechani cal difficulties set in at the time of the judging and the Psi U's were not able to win first place in the sign contest for the third time in the last five years. Our activities during the winter quarter also produced some significant developments. We are pleased to an nounce that Brother Randy Ethrington has been appointed to a committee whose purpose it is to look into estab lishing Psi U chapters at suitable west em colleges and universities.
