•• • a yi UPSILON ALPHA of Phi Gamma DeHta Fraternity, University of Arizona, December, 1970, Tucson, Arizona Upsilon Alpha Captures Cheney Cup We're Number One! The brothers of Upsilon Alpha have again captured the most coveted award in Phi Gamma Delta. The Cheney Cup is given to the chapter in the nation showing the most efficiency in all its fraternity affairs, ranging from intramurals to chapter tone. This is the fifth time since 1955-1956 that / ( ,:Ui 11 VtAR K1 IlK I ilAPIli iT' I'"'' ■ ' ■■ ■ ■ -ikrfw I the brothers have brought home the trophy —more than any other Fiji chapter. The brothers are very proud of their achieve ment and are working doubly hard to guar antee the same award next year. The magni tude of this av\ard was accented by the out standing competition presented across the nation. The calibre of the men represent ing the various parts of the country with Phi Gamma Delta truly reflects the highest quality to be found anywhere. After the awards ceremony, when Arizona was named the top chapter, several chapters quickly congratulated us, but let their intentions be known to win the award next year. The challenge to repeat as top has been issued, Upsilon Alpha is ready to meet it! B/ The Ekklesia Five brothers were present this summer in Cleveland for the 124th Ekklesia to bring home all the big awards. "^rACllAPTHI f""'' "" Jerry Jones "72, Chuck Rehling "73, John Stallings '71, Bob Nation "72, and" Jim Boice '71 were in attendance. The guiding light of the delegation was again Danny Romero '22. They all spent the four day convention attending enlightening sessions on chapter administration, ritual, nominations, pledge education, chapter tone, and various other areas of fraternity life. Many new friend ships were acquired and old friendships strengthened. The knowledge gained and suggestions made were well worth the trip, and accentuated by the final banquet when Arizona was named the outstanding chapter in the nation. The delegates were greatly appreciative to the many Arizona Fijis in the Cleveland area who were so kind and hospitable to the delegation. \r\nFiji Campanilla December, 1970 Our Guiding Lights Our newly elected house officers for the 1970-1971 campaign arc, as usual, an out standing crew of leaders. At the helm of the Fiji house and leader of the fivesome for the coming school year is Jim Boiee, one of the finest men on the campus today and a strong contender for Outstanding Senior Man. Jim precedes this contention by having won the Outstanding Junior Man award at the U of A last year. He is cur rently helping to hold the Student Union Activity Board (SUAB) together as its Vice a. « President. To top off this busy man's sched ule, he is a member of both Bobcats (Senior Men's Honorary) and Traditions Committee. In the position of treasurer is John Stall- ings, a great one when it comes to squeez ing blood out of turnips to meet the house expenses. This man is special in a different kind of way. He is the man who has made his way across Europe to see the old world, and ridden a bike from Phoenix to Ken tucky to see the New World. John is a big force in keeping the house spirited and reasonable. Standing: Don Ferrari, Recording Secretary; Jim Boice, President; John Stollings, House Manager; Kneeling: Geoff Foreman, Historian; Jim Hendrickson, Corres At the recording secretary slot is Dan Ferrari, a front-runner in the Yell King of the decade contest. Keeping in touch with our invaluable graduate brothers is Jim Hen drickson, corresponding secretary. Round ing out the cabinet is Geoff Foreman, this year's historian and leader in the all im portant area of chapter tone. These five men should lead Upsilon Al pha to another outstanding year on the U of A campus and to another contending slot in the Cheney Cup battle. With the rapid changes occuring within the fraternity system as a whole, Upsilon Alpha is not one to stand idle. With quality men in our key positions in the house, the chapter will continue to offer something extremely worthwhile to the active brothers, pledges, University campus, and to the Tucson com- imunity as a whole. ponding Secretary. Jerry Stitt '68 Graduate Advisor Life Blood Flows The Upsilon Alpha Chapter of the Frater nity of Phi Gamma Delta acquired twentythree fine quality men as new pledges through the 1970 formal rush period. Per haps the most common trait among the pledges is their athletic ability branching into nearly all sports. Nearly all of the pledges were active in their respective high school lettcrmen's club. The pledge class will contribute greatly to the fraternities intramural athletic teams. Three pledges, Harvey Ray Campbell from Tucson, Ari zona, Vein Wedge from Phoenix, and Gene Aasen from South Holland. Illinois are three years. Several played baseball in high school.

Many of the pledge brothers enjoyed being active in their respective high school student government programs. Four pledges were members of their high school student council or student advisory boards, Gary Carlough and Tim Pierson were both offi cers on their student councils and Clint Phillips and Paul Reed were members. Rick Lawrence and Craig Ochoa were both stu dent body presidents of their high schools, presently pla>ing for the Fiji basketball team. Harvey and Vern are among the five starters for the team.

It was he who did the cooking for the family, hence his cooking backgrotind. He worked at picking cotton for a while, but came back to the ways of cooking that Working for the Tucson Association for the Blind, the Fijis first cleaned the yard and house, removing brush and weeds from the yard and working on equipment inside.

In the latter project, a sum thirty years ago, he decided to move to Ariz.ona for a better job. He found one in Tucson at the Kappa Kappa Gamma house where he stayed for twelve years. Working in Tucson, he became familiar with the Phi Gams and become more and more attracted to them through the \cars. He signed his soul to our house, and he's been here ever since. Sam has been mtirricd twice and his sec ond marriage has lasted thirty-two years. The couple is extremely close and they spend all of their spare time together. Though Sam loves to hunt and fish, they are at home more and more as they grow older. mer lawn was prepared, requiring many Sam at work. Unfortunately, many of his amusing sayings cannot be printed. Sam is generally a happy, optimistic per son. As one talks to him, he putters about the kitchen preparing meals and arranging things. When he wants to make a point or is wrapped up in a story, he stops every thing, leans way over and stares at you with a twinkle in his eye. He is quite concerned about racism and other national problems but he usually ends a serious thought with an optimistic accent. He loves to give advice to people, espe cially about girls. Though he's extretnely experienced, and has seen a great deal, Sam is not at all bitter. He says, "Hatred isn't good for anything, I try to love everybody." He loves to laugh and make people laugh. At Manzo Community School a system exists called the community school program. ever, once on the subject of Phi Gamma It is directed at young children for physical activity and recreation, while adults partici pate in an adult learning center. During the Delta, Sam talks on and on about why he school When asked how he likes the house. Sam remarks. "Well, I like it pretty well," How likes it "pretty well," He has the run of the house. There is no housemother pressing him like in a sorority. He also mentions that he can fight with the guys, while he couldn't with the girls. He prefers cooking for boys because they al ways eat the food. He says, "They may do a lot of bitching but they always ^at it." Satn is quite an old fellow. He has, cur rently, one son in the Navy, two step chil dren, and three step grandchildren. When asked how much longer he will be at Phi Gamma Delta, he replied, "All my life, I'll be here for another fifteen years. And if I ever leave, it will be their fault (the brothers), and not mine,'' man-hours of work. He remarked that he gets along with everyone. He loves to walk through the halls and talk to the brothers. Sam is ter ribly interested in each active and pledge, and wishes to know all of them well. "The best thing about the house," says Sam. "is the attitude of the boys towards the house." He says that "It is not quite as good as it has been in past years, but the boys still really care for the most part." Sam does wish that there was more of the old fun. such as walk-outs, hosedowns, and year, several brothers became in volved with tidiilt education, devoting two nights every week in assisting MexicanAmericans as they learned English, while others tried for high school eqtiivalencv tests. These brothers printed litertiturc and spoke at different fraternity houses and sororities in attempts to attract volunteer help for the Manzo programs. Several speakers came to our house to speak on such topics as the role of the fraternity and the threat of pollution in our society. These took the form of discussions with active participation from the audience. One of our most enjoyable projects in volved a Halloween party for the under privileged children from South Tucson with girls from the Kappa K.appa Gamma sorori ty. Toys and refreshments were provided for the children, who delighted us as well as the sorority sisters. that people wouldn't take things so seriously, Stich tictivilies as the Httliowcen party Sam is dedicated to the house and will were so enjoyable for the brothers that an other trip with tmderprivilegcd children was arranged. This time, the Shrincrs Circus provided the entertainment for LSO kids and probably never leave. There is one thing that he wants to continue to ask of all of us, however, and that is, "Never come into the kitchen and ask me what's for dinner," Editor's note: It is the editor's opinion thcit trc oirp this mnn a lot in the iiY/y of grati tude and good times.

Aside from purchasing 75 tickets, brothers also bought popcorn for the kids at the circus. This year, the chapter endeavors to con tinue this ambitious program as we have already completed projects for several of the volunteer services of Tucson, Another Halloween party is in the offing, and the 1970-71 year promises to be exciting and rewarding. \r\nDecember, 1970 Fiji Campaniila Graduate News Where Are They Now.

Fifty Years of Zeta Delta EpsilonPhi Gamma Delta The Pig Dinner for this term will be on "Pledges are the lifeblood of the frater nity." This is a true statement, but it is the Brothers that make or break the house. No, it is not just the active brothers that are important, more, much more than that, the Graduate Brothers are essential to the House. It looks, from where I stand that too many have lost sight of an important issue here. A relationship was carried on by every man that belonged to the Upsilon Alpha chapter of Phi Gamma Delta. It most times TTie future action is now up to both of us. We at the House are going to start our part with a program of inviting Graduate Brothers to dinner every Wednesday night. This is not to get anything from them but that friendship, brotherhood, and help they may feel like giving as they see that we care. I can only hope that the program will work and continue. One-shot tries for graduate relations won't work, this long-term project is needed and we will go all out for it. All Graduate Brothers are invited and meant a great deal to him to be here.
