Generals' Fiji Zeta Deuteron Chapter Washington ® University Lee V >" X. "%(>» PIG DINNER ON TAP Right in step with Zeta Deuteron's revitalization, the brothers are currently planning a Norris Pig Dinner for May 13th. The fete will be held in conjunction with W&L Alumni Weekend, which this year features the return of the renowned Class of '68. Brother Charles King, committee chairman, reports that fraternity President Lew Costello is slated to be feature speaker. The Norris Pig Dinner is an old Fiji tradition, dating back to the late 1800's. Reportedly, the Cal-Berkely Phi Gams used a porcine creature to play a gag on the Betas and Dekes, and eventually the pig wound up on the Fiji dinner table-with an apple in its mouth. Brother Frank Norris sug gested making the pig dinner an annual festivity, and after his untimely death in 1902, the Norris Pig Dinner did indeed come into being. For information and/or reservations, please contact the house directly-or Ed Bishop. RUSH A SUCCESS!!! mtioyed by an outstanding "deferred Rush" effort, Zeta Deuteron currently boasts of 12 freshmen pledges, with a strong possibility of several more. Rush Chairman Drew Clark organized a fine schedule of fall activities, including such favorites as the Fiji "Pig-Nic", Kamikaze Night, Possum Night, and the bands "Michael Guthrie Band" and "Cartunes." However, a strong postRush effort was also very important. Brothers Tim White, Jim Lyall, Mike Holbrook, and Chris Kibler were among those who did a superb job of recruiting many quality Fiji freshmen. The departing senior class is quite pleased to see that Zeta Deuteron's future is in good hands. \r\nPage 2 HALLOWEEN PARTY A SUCCESS The ever-popular cocktail hour, complete with fine hors d'oeurves, was foUoweid by a delicious roast beef dinner One of the primary goals of Zeta Deuteron this year has been to improve campus and community relations. Toward that end, the brothers planned and coordinated a Hallo ween party at our house for about 20 youngsters from the local "Yellow Brick Road" day pare center. Brothers Win Sisson and Carlton Peebles, along with several pledges, did outstanding work in making the party planned by Drew Clark and prepared by our cooks, Ruth and Delores. Then, all enjoyed a Fiji "Casino Night," with Greg Lukanuski gathering (legitimately or otherwise) the most "Fiji money." Many brothers received compliments from both parents and faculty for the successful evening, and we plan to make this an annual event. a success. The children enjoyed playing games, fishing for prizes, and indulging in various sweet treats. And, to cap the festivities was a visit from "Spooky, the Friendly Ghost"-rumored to be a good friend of freshmen Jim Foley and Tom Fellin. Children, brothers, and parents alike enjoyed themselves, and the Fijis now plan to sponsor an Easter Egg hunt in the spring. FIJI SCHOLARS EXCEL Slowly but surely, the Fiji house is building a solid aca demic reputation on the W&L campus. Though battling in a highly competitive arena, the Phi Gams again finished above the all-campus average with a composite GPA of Z A total of eleven brothers earned Dean's List laurels, and five further distinguished themselves by placing on the Honor Roll. Charlie King, Stewart Kerr, Jay Fechtel, Jim Lyall, Alex Castelli, and Ricky Friend all made the Dean's List, while Steve Daub, Ed O'Brien, Andy MacClellan, Jim Hess, and Tom Fellin gained Honor Roll status. PARENTS' WEEKEND As part of the Parents' Weekend activities at W&L in October, Zeta Deuteron planned and held its first ParentsFaculty Dinner.

Though this year's Generals' squad slipped to a disappoint ing 5-4, several Fijis again made outstanding contributions. Senior tackle Andy Foley anchored the offensive line, and he repeated as a first team All-ODAC selection. Craig "Pea" Reilly turned in a fine season at guard and earned second team honors, and freshman Ricky Friend saw back-up duty ' at center. On the defensive side, three Phi Gams played on the defensive line. Sophomores Jim Lyall and^Greg Lukanuski and freshman Alex Castelli all turned in solidperformances, and freshman Jerry Biedronski was a reserve at comerback. The brothers of Phi Gam are proud of their gridiron heri tage and are ever hopeful that the Generals will achieve national Division 111 prominence in the near future. Two Fiji runners were part of the team effort which brought W&L its first-ever ODAC cross country champion ship. Senior Win Sisson and freshman Jim Foley toiled over the 6.2 mile course throughout the fall for the Generals. As the wrestling season shifts into gear, four Phi Gams, including three starters, are on the mats for W&L. Jim '/'I ' Foley at 134, Tim White at 158, and Carlton Peebles at heavyweight all were in the starting line-up versus Duke, and Win Sisson still hopes to earn first-string status. Though the Generals always face stiff Division I and II competition, they usually tum in credible showings, and they hope to be in excellent shape for the Division III regional tournament. "Ape" Peebles has been a starter for two years and appears to have a good shot at post-season honors. On the hardwoods. Brothers Brian Hanson and Jay Fechtel have helped the W&L hoop squad to a 7-2 start, as the Generals once again are a leading contender for the ODAC crown. Hanson recently notched his 1000th career point, and he won MVP honors at the W&L Invitational. Fechtel, also a senior captain, continues to play the vital "sixth man" role for Coach Verne Canfield's troops. Last year the Generals fell one win short, a loss to arch IM's - GOING FOR THE GOLD rival Roanoke, of NCAA tournament play. With an experi enced line-up and the talents of the Fijis, W&L looks like The first part of Zeta Deuteron's intramural campaign was somewhat below expectations, but the Fijis still hold down fifth place standing and are in a strong position to make a run for the coveted over-all championship. In football, Phi Gam rolled through an undefeated, unscored upon regular season which included a record 94-0 thrashing of the SPEs. However, disaster struck in the first round of the play-offs, as Fiji went down to a stunning 28-13 defeat. QB Ejay Clark once again sparked the offense, while Mike Partin, Jim Hess, and Chris Kibler all played well. Tennis was a pleasant surprise for Phi Gam as we finished 3-2, barely missing the play-offs. Greg Johnson and Mike Mahoney led the Fiji effort here. In golf, Fiji roared to an outstanding third-place finish behind the shooting of Stewart "Natty" Kerr. Also finish ing strong were Scott Hall and Jim Thompson. Finally, in the "turkey trot" race. Phi Gam was in the "middle of the pack." Drew Clark set the pace for the Fijis with a 20th place showing, while Jim Hess, Tom Fellin, and Mike Berg also finished. Fiji now eagerly awaits handball, swimming, and wrestling, all traditional strengths, as the push for No. 1 continues. the team to beat this time around. \r\nPage 4 WHAT EVER HAPPENED TO . - William Alexander ('35) is retired from work with the federal government.
