Your Graduate Newsletter
In the past several years, relations between
alumni and the undergraduate chapter have been ^
declining. One criticism of the G. D. Fiji is that it
does not contain enough information about gradu
ates.
The national offices of Phi Gamma Delta suggest
that 60 percent of this newsletter be devoted to
graduate news. I would gladly devote this much or
more to graduate news, but only a handful of
brothers have written to us this year. I have taken
some time to compile an information sheet which I
would like you to return to me. Please take a few
minutes and fill it out today. I have also begun to
To All Alumni Who Attended Homecoming:
We want to thank you for attending our Home
coming activities. All of the undergraduates had a
great weekend and we hope that all of you and your
families did so, too. The weather was perfect! It's
too bad the football team couldn't pull out a real
cliffhanger. We are glad that you all could attend. It
turned out to be one of the best turnouts in years.
Thanks again for coming and we hope to see you all
again very soon.
Fraternally,
The Brothers of the Gamma
Deuteron Chapter of
Phi Gamma Delta
compose a filing system which includes a file on
each and every graduate. There are nearly 750
living Gamma Deuteron Fijis. I hope that each of
you returns this information sheet to me as soon as
possible so that the file will be complete for the next
issue of the G. D. Fiji.
This is your graduate newsletter. A high quality
graduate newsletter needs your support. We want
your support. We hope that we are able to restimulate your interest. In this regard, I hope to see
the greatest turnout ever at Pig Dinner on Satur
day, April 7, 1979.
Fraternally,
G. D. Fiji Editor
Pig Dinner
The 1979 Norris Pig Dinner will be held on
Saturday, April 7, in the Lincoln Room of the Knox
College campus. Archon Secretary Donald R.
Mighell will be the speaker. There will be a
graduate reception at the chapter house prior to the
dinner. There will be a cash bar at the reception.

Scene from Homecoming reception.
This year, we are adding a new, special attrac
tion to the usual Pig Dinner festivities. We feel that
our graduates should become actively involved in
this function. We want to make the Pig Dinner a
very enjoyable as well as memorable affair. All
Fijis recall the ever-controversial acts which were
performed for the enterainment of all.
This year, will will insert a new activity into the
Pig Dinner festivities called "Phi Gam Pimp of
the Past." The activity will involve a dialogue in
which two Fijis will reminisce over the good old
days of the past, tell specially-selected pimps.
,
If any of you graduates wish to have a certain
pimp told, please send us a letter fully explaining
the pimp and who it is directed at. It would be great
if we could surprise a couple of graduates in the
audience by brining back some memories as well as
some laughs. (Of course, no names will be men
tioned.) We are sure that everyone will recall past
memories and realize that we are all Fijis for life.

\r\nFootball
r
Gamma Deuteron Chapter of Phi Gamma Delta
was again well-represented on the Knox College
football team this past season. Although the team
finished with a disappointing 2-6 record, losing a
number of close games, five Phi Gams stood out
with their excellent play during the season.
• Four-year starter at center Brian Cox '79 led the
way despite missing the last game of the season
with a crippling knee injury. Brian, master of the
"puli-out" block, was voted most valuable offensive
player and most valuable senior on the team by his
teammates. He had a fine year, capping off an
excellent career.
Likewise, twins Joe and Mike McNamara '79
finished off their careers as four-year starters in
splendid fashion despite being bothered by injuries.
Joe, a starter at either safety or cornerback, ended
the season with the most career interceptions of
any player at Knox. He was a key member of the
Siwash secondary and will be sorely missed next
year.
Mike, after starting three years at cornerback,
became a player of all positions his senior year. He
switched to quarterback his senior year and shared
the starting assignment for the first three games.
Later in the year, he injured his knee, but came
back to play running back one game and then
replaced his injured brother Jbe at cornerback in
the last two games. He played all positions well and
was the second most versatile player on the team.
The honor of being the most versatile player on
the team belongs to Fred Heger '79. Fred went
through four years without missing a practice. He
split his time between running back and wide
.receiver. He also did stints at tight end and played
center on punts. Fred was the player who the
coaches could depend upon to be ready to fill in at
any time.
The fifth member of the house on the 1978football
team was Steve LaMore '80. Steve won a starting
cornerback spot at the beginning of the season and
proved his worth by executing many bone-jarring
tackles. He will be back again next year and is
looking forward to having an excellent season.
Although all of the brothers were disappointed
with the outcome of the season, they were proud of
the peformance of the five Phi Gams on the Knox
Siwash.
Some of the graduates of '78 and the Actives on pledge night.
Soccer
This past season, three Phi Gams participated on
the Knox soccer team. These three brothers were
Norm Hillner, Joe Nichols and Jun Adachi. These
three players gave Knox a very strong left side of
the field, as all three started there. Joe played at
left fullback, Jun at left halfback, and Norm at left
wing.
The soccer team wound up with a record of 7-4-1.
The Siwashers won the Southern Division cham
pionship of the Midwest Conference for the eighth
consecutive year. Knox, however, lost the con
ference championship game to Carleton College on
November 4 by a score of 3 to 2 in nine sudden death
overtimes. The game, which lasted four hours, was
mentioned in Sports Illustrated magazine as one of
the longest and most grueling games on any level
every played. Knox found out that, had it beaten
Carleton, the Siwashers would have received an
NCAA bid.
Norm Hillner, a senior from Des Plaines, Illinois,
Social Scene
This year's fall party provided the Phi Gams with
the opportunity to put their creativity to the test.
The theme was "The Gaslight Club," and the house
was decorated to depict the prohibition years. As
one walked into the house, there were two gaslights
on each side of a false wall. On the other side of this
wall was the living room, decorated in a 1920s motif
with the music of Scott Joplin filling the air.
Through two swinging doors, one found himself in
the "Dewdrop Inn Saloon," with player piano music
highlighting the mood and beer from our "still." On
the way to the basement, a cleverly designed and
constructed phone booth with a false door was at
the bottom of the stairs. Through the false door and
into the room was a speakeasy where we and our
dates danced to the music of an appropriately
named band, "Bootleg." This overall clever at
was a co-captain and Knox's leading scorer for the
third straight year with 10 goals and five assists.
The 10 goals tied him as Knox's all-time leading
scorer with 32.career goals. Norm was a first team
all-conference selection all four years and an allIllinois selection the past three.
Joe Nichols, a senior from Gilson, Illinois, was a
three year starter for the Siwash at fullback. Joe's
sure foot and great quickness made him a very
valuable defender. His efforts were important in
Knox's goals against an average of 1.1 per game
and four shutouts. This scrappy defender earned
all-conference honorable mention.
Jun Adachi, a sophomore from Yokohama,
Japan, was one of Knox's top point getters with no
goals but eight assists from his halfback position.
Jun, who probably possesses the hardest shot on the
team, was very instrumental in controlling the
midfield and setting up the offense that average-;
2.8 goals per game. Jun has been an all-conferenc
selection two years in a row. He also hopes to
mosphere provided an enjoyable time for all who
uphold the fine Fiji tradition of soccer players st
attended.

House Condition
With the beginning of another year, many im
provements have been made to the chapter house,
but there remain many problems still to tackle.
The living room and TV room carpets have been
shampooed. New doors have been hung and all of
the floors have been waxed. Many large jobs have
been completed. The stairs leading to the third floor
have
been
rebraced
and
are
now
sound.
The
purchase of a new washer and dryer was of great
necessity. This was done with the help of the
Mother's Club. A
new couch was added to the
wheels room. A new couch, a new lamp, and a table
have been added to the living room thanks to the
donations of some graduate brothers and the
positive action taken by the BOA. We were also the
recipients of a recliner and a floor lamp, gifts from
Henry Tischler, a 1977 graduate.
However, there still remain many, many un
finished and undone jobs. The most important at
this time is the problem of leaky showers on both
the second and first floors. This problem must be
taken care of, but the expense of a professional
plumber will be quite high. The living room floor is
sagging rather severely to the point where we are
unable to hold dances upstairs; the bands must now
perform in the basement. We hope to have the floor
supported in the near future, but again, the expense,
of such an undertaking is restrictive.
House managers Thom Loughary '81 and Steve
Malecha '81 hope to have these problems corrected
in the near future. It would make for an even more
tremendous Pig Dinner if these major problems
could be corrected by April 7.

.m Minick is a freshman who comes to Knox
fr
a Melrose Park, 111., where he attended Walther
Lutheran High School. Among Tom's many talents
if his proficiency at golf: he was a four-year golfer,
two-year captain, and a state finalist his senior
year. He is one of two pledges out of four young men
in the entire state to run for youth governor; he lost
by one vote. He spent this past summer in Spring
field as a page and legislative aid in Congress. He
was the assistant state coordinator for Governor
Thompson's first voter program in his fall cam
paign. Tom was a member of Letterman's Club,
Key Club, German Club, and student council, as
well as editor of the school newspaper in high
school. He also was a member of band, in which he

Dean's List fall term. Tom plans on a political
science and economics major on his way to law
school. His pledge father is Mike Panczyszyn.
Jim Murphy is our other pledge who ran for youth
governor; he lost by four votes to the winner and
three to Tom.
However,
this
freshman
from
Atkinson, 111., is far from a loser. Jim is a graduate
of Geneseo High School. At Geneseo, he was a
member of National Honor Society and was chosen
as an Illinois State Scholar. He participated in no
less than twelve plays in high school. He was voted
President of Thespians (national recognition socie
ty for theatrical performance) and was elected
honor Thespian his senior year. He was vice
president of the Geneseo chapter of the National
Forensic League and participated as youth repre
sentative to his church council. Jim is majoring in
political science in preparation for law school. His

chemistry in the hope of going on to medical school.
His pledge father. Dean Toriumi, has recently been
accepted into Rush Medical School.
Darryl Whitmore is a very likeable freshman
from Mendota, 111. He graduated 14th in a class of
289 from Mendota High School. He was also a
member of National Honor Society. While at Men
dota High, Darryl was a member of the track and
golf teams. He also participated in the "Senior
Bowl," a quiz show for the best academic high
school students. He was a member of the French
Club and the Physics Club and was named as an
Illinois State Scholar. Darryl describes himself as
"lost"; he has yet to declare a major, but his pledge
father, Tom Loughary, says he need not plan so far
in the future. (Tom was a chemistry major until he
took his last organic test.)
Tim Rickert is our third pledge who was born in
Youngstown, Ohio. This freshman now resides in
Burr Ridge, 111. Tim attended Hinsdale South High
School in Hinsdale, 111., where he graduated in the
top quarter of his class. He lettered in football,
swimming, and tennis for the Hornets and is
currently a swimmer for Knox. He plans to major

trombone in band and was the vice president of
Young Democrats. Jim has yet to select a major,
although he is leaning toward political science. His
pledge father is Steve Zocchi.
Mark Unangst, our seventeenth pledge, is a
freshman. Mark is a native of Hanover, 111. He
graduated sixth in his class at Hanover High School
and was involved in a myriad of activities due to the
opportunities available at a small school. He was a
member of National Honor Society, and played four
sports: basketball, football, baseball, and golf. He
was president of the band while playing saxophone,
and he was a member of chorus. He was president
of student council and he was president of his class
all four years. Mark also participated in several
plays and was a member of drama club. At Knox,
he has acquired the nickname of Doctor U., because
he is a member of the JV basketball team. His
pledge father is Jim Lofgren.
Intramurals
As always, the Phi Gams are one of the top teams
contending for the IM All-Sports trophy.
The fall term saw the Fijis return without many
of last year's star athletes, who were lost to
graduation. Despite this, we managed to go home
for Christmas in second place behind the Independ
ents.
Three sports were held during fall term: vol
leyball, cross country and table tennis. Volleyball
was the strong suit of t,he house ... until the playoffs.
Our team's record was 8-1, good enough to tie for
first place in the A league. Our B team', composed
exclusively of sophomores, fought its way to gain a
playoff birth by capturing fourth place in the B
league. Instead of the two best teams from each
league meeting in a final game, the volleyball
commissioner decided to have inter-league playoffs
(after the standings were in), and consequently the
Fiji A team had to play the Fiji B team. The B team
forfeited and the A team went on to finish in fourth
place.
After seeing what could happen to our chances for
the trophy, we secured Joe Czurylo and Steve
LaMore as commissioners for table tennis and
basketball (winter term).
In cross country. Norm Hillner, Jun Adachi, and
Joe Nichols paced us to a fourth place finish. Once
again this year, table tennis was held the morning
after the fall party. Despite this handicap, we were
able to walk home with second place; we are also in
second place for the All-Sports trophy.
Winter term brings basketball, which we have
dominated in recent years. We hope to do well so
