The winter quarter rush for this year was one of the most successful our chapter has had in recent years. We took 9 pledges to help carry on the fine traditions of this fraternity.

At that time, the parents offered many practical ideas on how to accomplish this project. This past fall several brothers returned to school early and painted the basement. Upon com pletion of this phase of the project, an appeal was made to the parents for donations to the The Phi Gams had a good quarter in athletics once again. After a disappointing start, we rallied for a strong finish which left us in second place for the quarter. We made a good showing in volleyball and tennis, but the bulldog push-ups were all ours as we had the top three men and won the competition for the second year in a row. The chapter has decided to subdue the Chi Psi's for the rest of the year and obtain the number one slot for the third consecutive time.

The Zeta Deuteron pledge class also contributed their pledge class money to the project. Together there was enough money to buy tile to cover the basement floor. A few brother stayed after fall quarter exams to lay the tile. It was quite an experience to lay 675 square feet of tile; however, after many long hours the job was completed. The basement now looks like a different place. Further plans for renovation are being considered. Any ideas or contributions to the basement fund will certainly be appreciated.

The Phi Gams at the University of Georgia are presently ranked first among all other fraternities in scholarship with an overall average of 3.00. Close behind with an overall 2.95 average are the Sigma Pi's. We hope to maintain this lead through out the winter quarter in order to claim the trophy for the ninth straight year. Thirteen brothers made Dean's List fall quarter and as a result, helped the chapter compile its highest quarterly average of 3.05 in the last three years. These brothers will be served steaks while all other brothers will be awarded pork and beans in our first. Steak 'n Beans Dinner.
