Generals' Fiji Zeta Deuteron Chapter Washington *3? Lee University President's Report Dear Brothers, The brothers here at W&L's Zeta Deuteron Giapter are proud to say they belong to Phi Gamma Delta, one of the top fraternities here on campus. This year the brothers have taken major steps to turn Zeta Deuteron around and make FIJI the great fraternity that it is. With the help and support of our alumni and leadership of Ed Bishop ('68) and Les Locke ('68), Zeta Deuteron has taken big steps to meet the standards of physical operation and appearance set by the University. These improvements have taken much time, money and effort by all associated with us, and the improvements have truly been beneficial. This year Zeta Deuteron is proud to announce an active and very successful intramural program, finishing tops in all fall sports. Congratulations to IM chairman, Chris Kibler ('83). Zeta Deuteron, under uncontrollable circumstances, had to elect new officers to its cabinet this fall. The winners were fine selections. They have provided good leadership and play a very important role in the complete progress that Zeta Deuteron has made thus far. The new officers are: Stew Butler ('83), treasurer; Greg Johnson ('83), corre sponding secretary; Scott Hall ('83), recording secretary; and John Perkinson ('83), historian. The brothers look for a great job by these new officers and give them their total women from surrounding schools, and have provided good times for all. As we all know, rush is the most important event in any chapter's program, and the Zeta Deuteron Chapter is proud to announce that halfway through our rush program we now have a total of ten pledges. Our goal is twenty, and under the direction of Greg Johnson we will not stop working until that goal is at least achieved. All in all, the Zeta Deuteron Chapter of Phi Gamma Delta at W&L has progressed very steadily in achieving all of the goals set forth by the House Corporation, the Uni versity, and most importantly, the goals which we, the brothers of Zeta Deuteron, have set for ourselves. Perge! Fraternally, support. Being a fraternity, especially here at W&L, social life is very important, and thanks to Mike Mahoney ('83) and Mike Silverman ('81), and the rest of our social committee, our social life has become the social life of many. Our parties are bigger, attracting many more W&L students and Jerry L. Broccoli President \r\n. Page 2 FIJI SOCIAL LIFE BETTER THAN EVER The W&L FIJI'S have started this fall semester off with a busy, yet refreshing social schedule. The social committee, headed by Mike Silverman ('8i) and Mike Mahoney ('83), has managed to put on several fantastic theme-oriented parties v^ich are bound to have a traditional and lasting effect on the Zeta Deuteron Fiji's to come. Kicking off this year's Rush, the social committee put on a pig roast. The evening was highlighted by an open bar and a band. The following weekend, Scott Butler ('83) and Ejay Clark ('83) devised a Heaven and Hell party. This event was to be so well-planned that much of the W&L campus was talking about it the following Sunday. For Parents' Weekend, the social committee, with much help from President Jerry Broccoli ('81), organized a Casino Night in which parents' competed with FIJI money for a door prize. The evening was highlighted by an open bar and the arrival of the Alpha Gamma Delta sorority from James Madison University. The W&L FIJI'S welcomed the annual Homecoming festivities with a party before the Friday night dance, and a band that Saturday night. Several recent graduates attended. Many thanks to all those alumni brothers who con tributed to the House Corporation for all the renovations. Without these contributions the renovations could have never been completed. We have accomplished all the goals that were set for last year. Among those goals were a new sewage and plumbing system, a fire escape, and a renovated Chapter room and living room. Our House Corporation president Ed Bishop ('68) has done an outstanding job and has been very patient with the chapter in working out the financial burden that was placed on us at the beginning of the year. With his help, we are on track and the house improvements are proof of it. The active brothers hope that all alumni come visit the house and relive some memories. We're looking forward to meeting you. Dear Alumni, As social chairman, I'd like to inform you of the various functions we've held and those we're looking forward to holding. The Pig Roast and the Casino Night were two of the outstanding parties of the year. The Casino Night coin cided with Parents' Weekend, and as planned, the parents had a great time with a little help from the well-stocked open bar. With the rejuvenated house, we're seeing a lot more girls. The strong sophomore class also helps in this effort. We've been haging two or three parties a week. It is believed that this has strengthened our pledge effort. FIJI is in the process of evolving from a semi- deteriorated house to one with a new breath both phy sically and mentally. We are only too happy to keep you, our descendants, informed while hoping for your encour OFFICERS agement. President Treasurer Rec. Sec Cor. Sec Historian Jerry L. Broccoli E. Steward Butler Scott W. Hall Greg E. Johnson John Perkinson ('81) ('83) ('83) ('83) ('83) Sincerely, Michael D. Mahoney ^ I \r\nPage 3 1 ' Fiji Sports As the fall sports season progresses, so continues the tradition of excellent athletic performances by the brothers of Zeta Deuteron Chapter here at W&L. No less than 11 Fiji's, including five starters, have helped the football Generals to their best start since 1963. Sophomore tailback Chris Cavalline ('83) has paced the offense with 100.8 yards/game rushing. In one game, he carried the ball an incredible 46 times for 179 yards. Other standouts include Jim Forte ('81), Mike Pressler ('82), Tom Noble ('82), and Andy Foley ('83). In addition, three members out of a fine group of freshman players have pledged FIJI, wi th the promise of several more to come. On the intramural scene, the FIJI gridders are now looking forward to the playoffs after rolling to a 4-1 regular season record. Quarterback Ejay Clark ('83) and receiver Scott Butler ('83) spark an explosive offense while Mike Silverman ('81), John Fagan ('83), and Chris Kibler ('83) are just a few of the defensive stars. Rumor has it that the squad is going all the way to win the championship for Scottie B., vMo sacrificed his right knee for the FIJI cause in a recent game. In IM tennis. Phi Gam has been a bit shorthanded, but still holds a 2-2 record. Greg Johnson ('83), Mark Mc Laughlin ('82), and Mike Mahoney ('83), who all play IM football also, have performed well as has Charles "Thing" King ('83). Coming up soon on the IM slate are racquetball, bowl ing, and the infamous "turkey trot." FIJI spirit is high, and we look to do well in all three as we shoot for the elusive overall intramural title. PLEDGES The Zeta Deuteron Chapter of Phi Gamma Delta is presently undergoing a very successful rush. We are half way to our goal of 20 new brothers, and feel that we can accomplish this goal by rushing freshmen throughout the entire year. Our new pledges are: Jim Forte Mike Killea Carlton Peebles Jed Goad Steve Waterson Harry Malzeke Craig Reilly Scott Stanton Win Sisson David Bamonte We feel that these new members will be a great asset to FIJI and hope that we can acquire many other pledges of this caliber. \r\nPage 4 p. 3 PHOTOS Tailback Chris Cavalline displays hisjets ashe turnsupfield foranother long gainer, (credit W&L SIDKen Ries) p. 1 Rresident Jerry Broccoli discusses house improvements with Regional and National representatives, (credit John Perkinson) A formidable Fiji Homecoming contingent.
