We are meeting here tonight to honor a worthy Brother who through the years has proved not only his loyalty but his devotion to an ideal. It might be wise to see the record, of Mar cellus Hartley Dodge, giving considerable at tention to the background which made this story of his life a true picture.

His work among the poor made him one of Spooner, Coudert, Morion, Frank E.

In recent years the Lambda has grown con siderably. After having been restricted to the confines of a dormitory room for about twenty years, the chapter got its own brownstone house on 114th Street, opposite Butler Li brary. Ever since then the growth has been unusually rapid. At present the brotherhood has thirty-two brothers and five pledges. Here the brothers proudly exhibit the house (1) . . . and withdrawn rapidly as one of the deans is sighted (2). Various donations of the alumni have helped the house get better furnishings and have vastly improved the interior of the house. Our most recent addition has been that of a meal plan. Through alumni support the Lambda was able to purchase an entire new kitchen set with tables and chairs. Here the brotherhood can be seen enjoying their Thanksgiving repast (3). Our improvement in physical plant has been very symptomatic of a growing diversity and broadening of the brotherhood. Our brothers come from places all over the coun try and represent a variety of backgrounds. 128 THE DIAMOND OF PSI UPSILON

Because of new laws passed by the Univer sity, spring rushing has been eliminated, and in its place, a late fall rush period has been provided. This rush period is going on now. So far the Owls have done well by pledging two with more to come. Those already pledged are: Tim Ryan, '64, Oxnard, and Doug Donaldson, '62, San Gabriel.

Last semester the active chapter ranked 10th scholastically, however the pledge average pulled the house average down even though seven were initi ated. The majority of our new pledges ranked in their high high school classes which pro vides a brighter outlook scholastically for the Omicron. The majority of the brothers are in major campus activities. Brothers Dan Collins, Steve Sward, and Bob Dallach are managers on the yearbook staff of which Brother Rom Sykes is Business Manager. Brothers Jack Henbest and Bob Pfeiffer participate in advanced ROTC activities. Brother Martin Lower is active in Student Senate and interfraternity activities and Brother Gary Olson works as staff announcer at the student radio station WPGU.

Our scholastic record, unfortunately, was not as praiseworthy as our athletic prowess. Only two names�those of brothers Lynn MacGilliv- ray and Steve Chisholm�were added to the Jimmy Crocker Memorial as first-class honor students in their courses. There were a num ber of second class honors, but not enough to redeem us. There is no reason for this apathy which, we feel, will be remedied in time to achieve a much better record this year. There is added incentive in the fact that we have two very able brothers in graduate study who are spending much time around the house. Brother Charles Pullen, a graduate lawyer, is now a teaching fellow at University College where he is doing M. A. work in English. Brother John Bristol, studying for his master's degree in philosophy, also maintains a sincere interest in the fraternity. Both these brothers willingly give advice and consultation to any brothers who request it of them. Socially, the Nu, as always, had an active and interesting year.

It is nobody's fault but the subscribers. Of course many of them are from classes of 1950 through 1960. After college they get jobs�then change addresses on the average of six times during the next ten years due to being transferred; getting new jobs; getting married; then chil dren come along and larger quarters are required! Strange to say nearly half do not leave forwarding addresses when they move.

Two ladies spend full time on our alurhni rolls and mailing lists. They change about 5000 addresses a year from proper information sent in. Each change takes 16 minutes because of cross indexing etc. etc.

Each year lists of lost addresses are sent to the several chapter alumni associations asking for help.

Please consider a yourself "Committee of One" to assist us with any recent address changes with which you are familiar and send it to The Diamond of Psi Upsilon, 4 West 43rd Street, New York 36, N.Y. The Editor
