•• • a in a UPSILON ALPHA of Phi Gamma Delta Fraternity, University ot Arizona, May, 1971, Tucson, Arizona Jim Boice Selected To Phi Beta Kappa Cabinet Visits National Although all Fijis are familiar with the address 1757 N. Street N. W., Washington, D. C., few are ever fortunate enough to visit there. How ever, during Easter vacation, Jim Boice and John Stallings were sent by the Fiji Building Corpora tion to visit the National Headquarters in Wash ington. Jim and John spent two days in the Washing ton area — the first was utilized for sight seeing, and the second consisted of a visit with Executive Secretary, Bill Zerman. After touring the impressive headquarters building John and Jim discussed fraternity affairs with Mr. Zerman, and got a first hand look at how the national actually operates. The remain der of the day was spent in a friendly chat with the three discussing topics ranging from fraterni ty life to little league baseball. Both Jim and John agreed that getting to know the fraternity administration was a valuable asset and therefore, it was recommended to chapter that the new officers be sent to Wash ington early in the fall to derive the maximum benefits from the experience. New Officers Upsilon Alpha has selected new officers for the 1971-1972 school year. Replacing the graduating president and outstanding senior, Jim Boice, is Jeff Derickson. Jeff has served as president of the sophomore mens honorary, Sophos; is a mem ber of Chain Gang, the junior men's honorary, and is a member of the Traditions committee. He also was rush chairman first semester of this year. Replacing John Stallings as treasurer is Tom Harvey. Tom was a member of Sophos and is a member of Chain Gang. Being an accounting major he is well qualified to take care of the house's funds. Our new recording secretary is Steve Pierce.

Rod Drake is the new cor responding secretary, and is the only sophomore to be elected to the cabinet. Art Scarla is taking over the office of historian.
