After three years of goalsetting, hard work, and limited success, we reached a plateau of Plaque Honorable Mention the first two years, and last year,the crowning glory, the Coon Plaque itself. I should add special thanks to Doug Raitt ('80), who actually made the first accomplishment which will, hopefully, be reflected in our other arrangements with COMCOA, Inc., thus initiating our success. programs. We won the Owen L. Coon Plaque for best chapter publication at last summer's Ekklesia. When Scott Ashdown and I were freshmen, we were handed a new, promising, but as yet unproven publication format, and told to work with it. With the help of COMCOA,lnc., our now-famous communications and publishing experts, we transformed The Beaver Fiji into a respectable, self-supporting enterprise. Thanks to the support of the article-contributing brothers and the response of you graduates. The Beaver Fiji has improved steadily over the past three years, garneving Coon We've been proud of this publication all along. In fact, if not for a clerical error in last year's filing process, many of us feel we had a solid chance of winning the Coon in 1979. Determined not to be foiled again, we put special effort into the program in 1980, adding a rush edition and the FLOP, a local printout for our live-out members. We assembled our application portfolio in the spring, mailed it off, and crossed our fingers. During the course of the summer, we forgot about the issue until Ekklesia rolled around in August. When the boys returned, they kept the award a secret (right in line with our "ghost-chapter policy") \r\nTHE BEAVER FIJI until two of them, Dave Thompson and Scott Ashdown, assisted by graduate Mike Staropoii ('80), dropped by my girlfriend's to visit. I quizzed them about our Coon success, but they led me to believe that we had once again garnered but honorable mention. Slightly dowricast, but always proud, I accepted their story and went home. Upon crawling into bed, I felt a sharp pain in my foot, and heard a loud crack as my toe was stubbed on something flat and hard. Thinking my sister was playing another one of her adolescent pranks, I uttered a few choice obscenities and reached beneath the blankets to retrieve the offending article. When I pulled it out I was stunned — it was no prankster's brick or two-by-four! It was the sacred plaque, the revered Coon! I murmured a few more obscenities to the sly brothers and clutched the award to my breast, a dream realized. I will be retiring after you have read this issue, but my heart will always be with you through subsequent issues of The Beaver Fiji. My more-thdn-able assistant, Mark Pickard, will take over and continue the defense of Kappa Omicron's gift to the Western chapters. This is the first time the Coon has ventured far beyond the shores of the Mississippi. Farewell, and carry on! — Samuel C.

It is often said that quality is the most important thing about rush, but numbers are also important. This past rush, Fiji pledged not Tony Velarde only great quality, but a good number as well, which keeps the John Whitmore Carlton, Oregon Portland, Oregon house full at 64. Rush is the basic key to the improvement and continuation of any fraternity. Since such importance is placed on rush, it has New Pledges Show Promise to be a unified group putting forth the effort. The entire Kappa Omicron membership did put forth the effort, and then some. "During rush, every chapter has two goals: one, to gain pledges rich in the aspects of character and quality that Phi What also enabled us to have a banner rush was the time put in by the graduate brothers. I, as rush chairman, got total support of the chapter membership. We got both number and quality in from the Fiji graduate brothers through advice, offering houses, giving recommendations, and most importantly, motivation. With this help, we managed to pledge 11 legacies. This effort by all Fijis shows that Fiji is FOREVER! Thanks to all who helped. We'll contact you next year! Fraternally, — Jeff Fletcher ('82), Rush Chairman Gamma Delta demands, and two, to ensure the future strength this year's formal rush pledge class." Such are the comments of Jeff Fletcher, 1980 formal rush chairman for Kappa Omicron. All in all, 29 new pledges were added to the cache of five nuggets left over from last spring, bringing the rook population of the house equal to that of the membership, something which hasn't happened for years.

The total number of men pledged by Fiji represents the second best rush effort on campus(out of 29 fraternities), and a big improvement over recent years in number. Another factor which reflects the quality of the class is its diversity. Athletes, brains, ladies' men, humble hard workers, and comedians permeate the pledge ranks. Geographic diversity is evident also, with men from as far as New York, and as close as Salem. Interests range from fishing, hunting, and skydiving to basketball, football, golf, and tennis to girls, partying, dancing, and good music. Even with this diversity, the pledge class still retains a strong devotion to unity. At the recently-conducted rook walkout, most of the pledge brothers got to know each other a lot better, and some pressing problems within the class were resolved. We also managed to do all this with utmost secrecy — the members didn't know until the last second that we were on our way to the coast (heh, heh). Here are some comments by some of the pledges themselves: Mike Newman believes that the pledge class's goal is to "Outshine all the other pledge classes by showing more enthusiasm, displaying more organization, and showcasing our unity." Kelly Reynolds added, "The goals of the group are to establish a good participative attitude with neighboring sororities, and for us to develop as well-rounded, well- Page 3 with Kirk Doughty as pledge trainer. He's got the pledges in line and learning all about the fraternity. All 29 rookies passed Kirk's rigorous quizzes and final. This chapter won the highly-coveted "Coon Plaque" for best chapter publications, and is working hard to commence a Kappa Omicron dynasty. We all hope that you are enjoying this issue. Winning an international award has had much to do with the improvement of chapter tone. Good job to our editor, Sam Skillern, for his special part. Graduate relations have greatly improved with Mike Jamieson at the helm. We are always looking forward to sharing Fijidom with our wiser brothers. Be waiting for a call to come to Monday night dinners — or call us, those of you in the vicinity. Our archives committee is responsible for all awards, and this is much better than in the past. We had all the trophies updated for the first time in five years(good job, Tom Davis), and we applied for many international awards last year. Kudos to Mark Pickard for rejuvenating that program. Our housemother, Mrs. T., is doing well, giving her heart to the chapter, as well as her niece, Gail Lasley, who is a new member of the White Star Court. I want to thank our graduate brothers who have helped us, specifically: Neil D'Autremont (PL), Mike Goger (Corp. Pres.), Larry Peetz (Corp. VP), Bob Mooney (Corp. Treas.). Also, Dave Thompson is doing a very fine job on the books as house treasurer. mannered, outgoing individuals." "Coming from Long Island, New York, I was glad to meet my new pledge brothers. I think that the 1980 Fiji rookies will prove to be the most dynamic and positive group here at Kappa Omicron to be able to uphold the pride of Phi Gamma Delta." These were the words of Kent Loursen. Charles Riley, of Seattle, sums up the sentiments of the pledges with his comment:"Above all else, the goal of this class is to achieve a unity which will maintain the high standards of the Fiji house, and to strive to make the standing of Phi Gamma Delta a high one here at Oregon State." Proudly, — John Home, 1980 pledge Virtually everyone deserves praise and credit for turning this chapter into one which I (although biased) consider to be one of the best chapters in the country, or well on the way to getting there. I've done my best to continue this trend, and wish my successor the best of luck. — Scoft Ashdown, House Manager Treasurer's Update The house finances at Kappa Omicron continue to move on the upswing as the chapter finished in the black for the 1979-80 fiscal year. The fact that Kappa Omicron's cash balance exceeded its House Manager Scott. Steps Down — Reviews Reign payables was great news in itself, and when considering that 1979-80 was an Islander year, the feat looms even more Wow! To try to write an article on the Kappa Omicron spectacular. Many individuals are responsible for our healthy financial position, but special mention belongs to the committee Chapter at this time is difficult. This is because of the massive chairmen who cooperated by adhering to their particular changes, I feel for the better, occurring here. The improvements are numerous, the future signifies hope, and it appears as though we have shot a good step higher in the attempt of truly budgets. glorifying Phi Gamma Delta. Our most significant improvements are, first, house tone. The budget for the 1980-81 year was drawn up in the summer and indicated an approximate 10% increase over the previous year. We're confident that the budget will realistically The attitude is full of hope for a brighter future with spirits more meet the house's expenses, and with a rush that yielded six men over the projected break-even number of 58, our expectations than willing to work their way there. Next is our fall formal rush. remain high. Usually we pledge about 21 or 22 in the fall. This year we pledged 29! This was the second highest number of men pledged by any fraternity, and since we are about 12th largest on campus, just above average, this was miraculous. Not or.ly is the quantity great, but so is the quality. Good job to Jeff Fletcher and, indeed, to the whole house in rush. We have laid down a very solid pledge training program, It is said that two measurements indicating a chapter's strength are scholarship and finances. The Kappa Omicron chapter, along with the efforts of Board Advisor Mike Goger, and coordinated kitchen cutbacks by our Mrs. T. and Mrs. K., has been able to establish a stronghold over the finances in strengthening this Phi Gamma Delta chapter. Faithfully and financially, — David Thompson ('82) \r\nTHE BEAVER FIJI Winter 1981 Phis, and Delta Gammas, plus a Fire Drill function with the Kappas. The AXOs from Willamette University have been invited down to a function next term. It's plain to see that the Kappa Omicron chapter has been keeping very busy in the social department. Our best innovation is going out and socializing with houses from other campuses. I recommend it to all you other chapters as a means of improving inter-Greek relations, and seeing some new people. — Joe Hamilfon and John Home I Fiji Potpourri Among the 29 nuggets pledged this fall were a number of extra-special finds. Thanks to the loyalty of Fiji blood, 11 men of fine stock were recommended, rushed, and pledged into the purple fold: Robert Morrison, Jr., and Robert Morrison III; Brad Hulquist; Harold Barnes; Soren Laursen; Tom Newman; Tom Whitmore; Neal Reiling; Charles Carrol (for Charlie Riley); F. R. Hedges and Denny Hedges; Gary Romine; and David Rimbach. Perge'l The annual Fiji-Theta Christmas tree-cut was held this year to surprising success. For as long as anyone can remember, it has been staunch Theta tradition to send three or four token girls on the cut, an act which perennially upset the eager members of the Fiji contingent. In this year's effort, though, 27 pretty girls accompanied the boys to the mountains near Alsea to chop three pines, one for our sisters, one for the Heart of the Valley Rest Home, and one for us. Looks like the Fiji-Theta bond will become even tighter in the coming year. What do some of you graduates remember about Fiji-Theta relations in your day? Jot down what you can and send it in. "Maestros" Kirk Doughty and George Stephen put the finishing touches on their concoction for the "World's Biggest Daiquiri Party." We here at Kappa Omicron have always taken great pride in the way the outside of the house looks, and this year our concern paid off. Despite the fact that we need some touching- "World's Biggest Daiquiri" Highlights Social Term Fall term 1980 was marked by a wide variety of social activities in the Fiji house. Social Chairman Brother Joe Hamilton scheduled a whole host of stimulating functions to promote the social aspects of our fraternity. One attraction was "The World's Largest Daiquiri" party, which was held during Homecoming weekend. The Fijis and Thetas from the University of Oregon were invitied to the party, which also included the Thetas and Fijis of Corvallis. 20 gallons of rum, ninety pounds of strawberries, 80 pounds of bananas, and 300 pounds of ice were incorporated together by Brothers Kirk Doughty and George Stephan, who were the master- [r mixers. The brew was contained in a magnificent mug crafted by the Eugene brothers. This will be an annual event from now Other successful functions were the ATO Wheel, Pi Phi Halloween Party (which included a pumpkin-carving contest), Theta Big Sister/Little Sister function, Chi Omega Drink and Drive function, and the Alpha Phi Wake-up Breakfast (with cartoons and fruit). Brother Hamilton felt that this term's functions were very successful. For next term, he has tentatively planned the Jefferson Duo function with the Gamma Phi Betas and the Alpha Xi Deltas. Others include a double function with the Betas, Alpha Gary Van Gordon ('79) and his new son, Matthew, recline during the Homecoming activities. Other recent additions to Fiji families include Kris and Kris Thompson (Kevin), and Shane and Teri Doran (Shawn). \r\n«. THE BEAVER FIJI Winter 1981 up on the paint job this summer, we've managed to maintain immaculate house and grounds — good job, sophomores. For Page 5 our efforts, we were named one of the more attractive houses at his brother. Jeff Minch, who had several of his friends pledge during formal rush, signed just before the Christmas party, and boy, was he glad he did!

KO is a comin' on! chased after since last year, and we finally snared this personal For the fourth year now, we hove assembled some of Oregon State's loveliest coeds and carefully chosen from among their ranks to make up the Fiji White Star Court. Every year we add 10-15 new girls to our already loyal and enthusiastic bunch of returnees. The court is not only for freshman days alone, remember. The 1980 babes are Sally Lauderdale, Gail Lasley, Jonni Korkow, Kristie Pieters, Sally Moore, Pom Siedel, Vicki Fisher, Tami Boatright, Heidi Bruner, Annette Rasmussen, Michelle Peterson, Annette Cakes, Roxy Leidholdt, and Angela Devi. We had a great time exchanging with the girls at our annual Christmas party (they gave the house a much-needed popcorn popper), and look forward to the dinners, wake-up breakfasts, and parties they will share with us in the coming terms. Congrats, ladies! Don't forget the Pig Dinner this year, which is usually held on the third Sunday in April. This year that date is April 24, the fourth Sunday, due to the fact that the third Sunday is Easter. Remember, one week later, we eat pig (well, roast beef — close enough)! Though we are a "ghost chapter," or a secret house, we hove some leadership positions that can be uttered above a whisper. Dave Thompson will handle our official on-campus duties as new house manager, replacing Scott Ashdown, who did a great job representing our anonymous bigwig. Paul Harvey will fill Dave's shoes as treasurer. Jason Chin emerged as Kappa Omicron's formal rush chairman, with big shoes to fill after Jeff Fletcher's banner effort last summer. Mark Pickard will be taking over the reins of this journalistic job, while Jeff Hensley will assume informal rush duties. Speaking of informal rush, we concluded an excellent fall season by signing upthree quality men. Tom Andrich, brother of current pledge Pete, joined Fiji much to the glee of the "B" basketball coach, Denny Thompson. Tom is a fine hoopster like members on the dance floor. Rick Toda is a nugget we have friend of Jason Chin. Tom is from Bend, Jeff from Beaverton, and Rick hails from Portland. Superior job, Jason and everyone who helped rush this last term. Fijis on campus include Jeff Fletcher, who was elected IFC Rush Chairman for next fall's festivities, and Mike Jamieson, head of the IFC Joint Activities Committee. Mike's appointment marks the fourth consecutive year that a Fiji has chaired that group. Jon Rodriguez is co-chairman of the IFC Sing Committee, and Chris Rosenlund is IFC secretary. Ted Squilanti and Mark Pickard are photo editors for the Greek Columns, a fraternity/sorority publication on campus. Football Trophy Stays at Home Intramurals are upon us once again, and the Fijis are ready to take the challenge and chalk up another successful athletic year. The season started off optimistically, as usual. We swept to a 2-0 record in football, only to fall to the Theta Chis on a pair of freak scores, which handed us our only loss of the campaign. We bounced back for two victories, but our 4-1 record was only good enough to tie those accursed Turks, and we had to settle for the co-championship. For the first time in fouryears,though, we were barred from the championship play-offs because only one representative from each league was allowed, and the Theta Chis earned that berth. This was the year of the squeaker for us as we won by tallies of 7-6, 9-8,1-0(a tie-breaker), and 12-0 (our only rout). At least we retained a share of the Black League Trophy, which we have held for five years now. In volleyball, our always-strong "A" team met up with tough competition and struggled to a 3-3 season. The "B"team fared better, advancing to the play-offs, but succumbing to the old Fiji disease, "first-round-play-off sickness," and we bowed from the tournament.
