Edwin Lee Jones, Jr. is an unassum-ing man who would hardly be noticedsitting in his pew at the MethodistChurch. He is a strong but gentte man.He is a member of Pi Kappa Phi.

But the same intensely private manwho enjoys the opera and small,impromptu dinner parties, rules aninternational construction empirewith such far-reaching financial andpolitical connections that securityconsultants advise him to concealwhen and where he jogs.

Jones, 58, is president and chairmanof the board of J. A. Jones Con-struction Co., the second largestconstruction company of its kindin the United States. The communityrracppptc him for multimillion-dollardonations to cancer research, collegeendowments and civic projects.

He drives an Oldsmobile Delta 88,pumps his own gas, and his wife,Lucille, irons his shirts and shopsat the A&P.

He's a family man who relaxes inhis mountain vacation home andplays tennis and golf at the countryclub.

But there are other sides to EdwinJones.

There's the world traveler who over-sees more than $600 million worthof business in the competitive, polit-ically sensitive world of internationalconstruction. Two of his major con-tracts last year were with the pre-revolution government of Iran. Andsome of his 11,400 employees areworking on one Saudi Arabian pro-ject so secret that the company'sannual report won't say what it is.

Those overseas connections and hiswell-known wealth raise the specterof a terrorist attack in his tranquilneighborhood where Jones lives in ahigh-security condominium. So sec-urity consultants advise Jones not todisclose details of his personal for-tune or his daily routine.

There is the Edwin Jones who sawno moral problems three years agoin complying with an Arab edictnot to do business with Israel orsend Jewish employees to Arabcountries. Jones, who had $400million in contracts with Arab coun-tries at the time, urged Congress notto punish U. S. firms who adheredto the Arab boycott. The issue in-volved politics and economics, notethics, he said.

ber 13, 1941, but left in 1942 toenlist as a private in the MarineCorps. He fought on Iwo Jimaand in Guadalcanal and came homea lieutenant. In January 1948 hegraduated with a bachelor ofscience in civil engineering, and thesame afternoon he went to workfor J. A. Jones.

By 1951, Jones was becoming aforce in the community. At age30, he was a director of J. A. Jonesand the Bank of Commerce, Jones-Brown Realty, Poplar Apartments,Inc., Highlands Hotel Co. and Bel-

vedere Hosiery Mills.

In the following years, he becamepresident of J. A. Jones and raisedfive children.

Jones' power doesn't begin withpersonal magnetism. "He's not thekind of person who can get up andsway a crowd," one friend concedes.His appearance and mannerisms arehardly overwhelming. One business-man says Jones "travels all over theworld, but you'd never know itfrom the way he talks and dresses.He's a diamond in the rough."

EDITORIAL

Because you are the best!It has been a tremendous thrill for me to have had the opportunity to serveas your National President for the past two years.

Since the time we shared in New Orleans many exciting things have hap-pened that have made Pi Kappa Phi an even better fraternity. You havebeen a big part in these changes just as you are now making our future andour history. Let's review a few of your accomplishments.

We continue to be the fastest growing National Fraternity having increasedour ranks by six chapters and thirteen colonies during the last two years.We are constantly being asked to consider new campuses and new locationsbecause of our history of success and our reputation as a first class organi-zation that is continually striving for excellence.

These requests keep coming because your Administrative Staff, headed forthe past 20 years by Durward Owen, provides more services to our chaptersand members than any other fraternity. Our present staff to chapter ratiois 1/13, well ahead of most other fraternities. Constant chapter and individ-ual assistance is being offered. New programs are being introduced whichkeep us ahead of other organizations in providing "how to" informationto our chapters.

Your P.U.S.H. Project has already helped hundreds of severely handicappedchildren to reach beyond their previous realm and into new worlds of per-sonal achievement.

The Scholarship Foundation, headed by Dick Anderson, has made signif-icant strides and has just introduced new scholarships for the sons of alumnias well as an annually awarded Founders' Scholarship worth $1,000.00. Inaddition, this group has continued their heavy financial support of Pi KappCollege as well as their continuing financial aid and student loan commit-ments.

Pi Kappa Phi Properties under the most able leadership of Kelley Bergstromhas now reached a Corporate value of $1,154,966 in only 12 short years ofexistance. New chapter houses and properties are constantly being reviewedby this dedicated group of Pi Kapps.

Perhaps the most impressive statistic of all is the fact that your fraternityhas done all of these things without any fee increase in the past six years.An unparalled feat in these times of spiraling, double digit inflation.

As a member of Pi Kappa Phi, I owe a debt of gratitude to you for yourhard work and together we owe a lot of "Thanks" to your National Council,Foundation Trustees, Chapter Advisors and Area Governors and most ofall to our Administrative Staff that is the best there is. Durward Owen isrecognized by his peers in the fraternity world as one of the "deans" andmost imaginative and successful executives in the fraternity world today.

The results I have mentioned come only by virtue of hard work, precisecoordination and planning and "extra caring". These attributes must con-tinue as much remains to be done.

Thank you for letting me serve for the past two years. You are a joy towork with and for — because you are the best!

Mark C. Hollis

A graduate of Chi Chapter at Stetson

Relations. He is now on the Board

of Directors of Publix as well as

Gamma OmegaAlumni sponsorMiss America Preliminary

- The need for a good project to bringUndergraduate and alumni brotherstogether is a problem that some-times faces chapters of Pi Kappa Phi.Members ask how they can inspirealumni and undergraduates to helpsolve housing and financial problemswhile improving the chapter's image.

At the University of Montevallo inAlabama, Gamma Omega Chapterhas found a classy solution to thequestion. Last spring, alumni andstudent members pitched in to pro-duce a Miss America preliminarypageant in Montevallo.

Held on March 24, the Miss Monte-vallo Pageant was organized and runby alumni living in the Birmingham,Alabama area. Needed leg work andmanpower was supplied by under-graduate brothers at Montevallo.

The results of the effort was signif-icant. Seventeen university and highschool women competed for the titleof Miss Montevallo. The pageantprogram, professional in every way,was produced by alumni brotherSammy Joseph. Music was per-formed by the school's jazzensemble. Scholarships and giftstotaling $500 were awarded tofinalists.

The University of Montevallo re-sponded to the Pi Kapps' pageantby providing them the use of itsauditorium and official guest houserent free. Dr. James Vickery,president of the university, hosted areception at his residence for allcontestants, their parents, judgesand brothers.

Scholarships were extended by aBirmingham industrial manufac-turing firm and an engineering firm.A university faculty member alsodonated $100 toward scholarshipswhile a Montevallo dress shopdonated a $100 gift certificate andthe winner's crown.

Pageant finalists came from threestates. Their parents and relativescarried the name of Pi Kappa Phi asbeing gracious hosts back home withthem. The fraternity's image wasfurther boosted when at least sevennewspapers in Alabama, Floridaand Georgia featured stories andphotographs of the Miss Montevallofinalists.

In addition, the Miss MontevalloPageant was judged by the MissAlabama Pageant Director, whooversees all Miss America preliminarypageants in the state, as being thebest first-year show she has beenassociated with.

These are the results. What wentbefore were three months of hardwork by Pi Kapps in order to bringthe laurels to their chapter.

The idea of hosting a pageant wasfirst discussed last fall when GammaOmega's alumni began meetinginformally to discuss their chapter'shousing situation. They sought anannual project which would financeimprOvements to their chapter house.

Then, at the chapter's housingcorporation meeting in mid-December, alumni voted to actively

pursue the possibility of sponsoringa Miss America preliminary pageant.Brothers contacted the "BirminghamNews", which holds the franchiseto host the Miss Alabama programfrom the Miss America organization.The "News" provided contractsand detailed information on hostinga pageant.

Alumni talked to sponsors of pre-liminary pageants at other collegesin the state. They learned thatpageants usually do not make bigmoney in the first year, but bring inseveral thousand dollars in subse-quent years.

In January, Gamma Omega alumni

signed the contract to host thepageant. Brothers executed a $1,000bank note for "seed money" to starttheir program. Two co-chairmenwere appointed to oversee the pro-ject while committee heads werenamed in the areas of programs, com-

production, and publicity. Dr. JimBeal, the Chapter's Advisor, servedas treasurer.

A two-page advertisement coveringthe cost of printing the pageantprogram was sold to the MontevalloChamber of Commerce. For theirconsideration chamber memberswere named as pageant co-sponsors.

Women's Greek organizations oncampus were approached for con-testants along with the universitymusic department. A general noticefor contestants went out to theentire student body and local highschools. Undergraduate brotherspublicized the event by sendingwaves of handbills through thecampus and town.

Student chapter members sold con-cessions, programs and tickets onthe night of the show. They alsoacted as escorts for contestants andprovided security backstage.

On pageant day, events startedearly. Brothers were in the audi-torium setting up the stage, soundequipment and lighting by 8:00 a.m.They were assisted by universitysenior drama students who werehired to run sound and light equip-ment. Rehearsal began at 9:30 a.m.and continued until noon.

The President's reception followed

at 2:00 p.m. Contestants began

their personal interviews at theschool's guest house at 3:00. Abanquet for judges, university andtown officials, and brothers fol-lowed. The pageant show gotunderway at 7:00.

Contestants were judged on theirinterview before the show startedand on talent, evening gown andswimsuit competition on stage.Talent judging counted for half thepoints in choosing the winner.

Miss Montevallo, junior music majorSusan Grooms, received a $250scholarship to Montevallo and was a

contestant in the Miss Alabama

contest in June.

Attendance in the first Miss Monte-vallo pageant was moderate, yetGamma Omega realized severalhundred dollars profit on theirinitial effort. Brothers believe theyhave set the stage for a really bigpageant in 1980.

Perhaps the most significant ac-complishment of the Miss Monte-vallo pageant, though, was the spiritof accomplishment it generatedamong alumni and undergraduates.After just finishing the 1979 MissMontevallo contest, Pi Kappa Phihas already requested a date on theuniversity calendar for the 1980pageant!

"DELTA BETAREALLY SWINGS"

DAHLON EGA, GA. — The Fall Quarter Pledge class of Delta Beta Chapter at North Georgia College

recently completed their pledge project and the results were well worth waiting for. The pledges,

with the help of the college's Plant Operations personnel, constructed a large cement archway with

an old-fashioned porch swing suspended beneath it. Located in a shady spot on campus adjacent to

the Student Union Building, the Pi Kapp swing has already proven to be a favorite place for students

between classes. In fact, a path has already been worn in the lawn leading to the swing. The brothers

are now in the process of pouring a sidewalk with a landscaped border around the arch. Pictured

above are the brothers and little sisters following the dedication ceremonies. Believe it or not, there

really is a swing in there somewhere.

Add 3 charterings and you have 93 chapters

These new initiates represent the chapter membership of Delta Omega Chapter at Texas A & M

University.

Once again a new chapter is chartered in Michigan, with these charter members of Epsilon Beta

at Grand Valley.

Cries of "We're Number One.",

echoed throughout the Grand Valley

State College campus at Allendale,

Michigan, late this Spring. Was there

a reason? You bet . . . the Epsilon

Beta Chapter of Pi Kappa Phi be-

came Grand Valley State's first

fraternity.

Archon Rich Probst accepted the

charter from Installing Officer

Travis Julian (Omicron) during the

April 28 ceremonies. Assistant

Chartering Officer, Jerry Timpson

(Alpha Theta) and Administrative

Office representative Stuart Hicks,

were also witness to the occasion.

Undergraduates from Michigan State

(Alpha Theta) and Bowling Green

(Delta Sigma) executed the Ritualof the seventeen men.

John Kenyan, Ted Lukomski, Jeff

Mynhier, Warren Pefley, Rich Probst,

Martin Svihra, and James Wilson.

College President Avend Lubbers

was featured speaker at the charter-

ing banquet. In forecasting the

development of the Greek system at

Grand Valley, Lubbers emphasized:

"The responsibilities of being

Number One cannot be forgotten."

We couldn't have said it better!

to the south, the Sigma Rho

Associate Chapter at Elon College,

North Carolina, became Pi Kappa

Phi's Epsilon Alpha. The chartering

marked the first time in the frater-

nity's history that two groups were

presented charters on the same day.

Phil Tappy (Lambda) NationalPresident, and Bill Finney (Gamma

Kappa) served as Chartering Officer

and Assistant, respectively. The

Western Carolina (Gamma Epsilon)

initiating team performed the Ritual

for charter members: Allen Bass,

Mike Brown, Chris Drozdowicz,

David Graham, Paul Hirschmann,

Jim Johnson, Keith Kirby, Art

McKinney, Tim McPherson, Bruce

Piner, David Pinson, Randy

Randolph, John Reaves, Kendrick

Shriver, Barry Simmons, Mark

Smith, Rick Steele, and Jim

Stephenson.

A chartering banquet and dance to

honor the new initiates were held

at the Burlington, North Carolina,

Hilton. Archon Jim Stephenson

accepted the charter for Epsilon

Alpha, grateful that the year of

hard work as an associate chapter

was concluded. Congratulations to

our men at Elon!

Another Pi Kappa Phi success story

was climaxed by the chartering of

the Delta Omega Chapter at Texas

A & M University, the state's oldest

public institution for higher edu-

cation. Although not formally

recognized by University officials,

the newly formed Greek system at

A & M has expanded rapidly. Prior

to 1973, the Aggie Corps of Cadets

was the only "fraternity" on campus.

The new Pi Kapps, however, are now

an important part of the more

diversified appeal.

Jay Kruska (Gamma Upsilon),

Chartering Officer, and Steve Miller

(Beta Mu), Assistant, were in College

Station to recognize the group

during ceremonies April 14. Director

of Membership Henry Groves and

Field Staff representatives David

Long and Robert Mitchell were

also present. Initiating teams from

McNeese University (Beta Mu) and

University of Texas - Arlington

(Delta Psi) inducted eighteen men:

Gary Barmore, Wes Bownds, Vernon

Burnett, Gary Collier, Mark Goulas,

Rod Henson, Charlie James, Patrick

Kasper, Ricky Kidd, Terry Kidd,Kevin Madole, Bill Maloy, Mark

Munsell, Gregg Schnellbacher, Phil

Tritico, Joe Thompson (Archon),

and Ted Woods.

We welcome you to Pi Kappa Phi!

GOLDEN'LEGION

The men listed and pictured on this page have been honored as distin-guished citizens of Pi Kappa Phi. They represent the maturity of theirchapter and their fraternity. Each of them has been remembered on the50th anniversary of their being initiated in Pi Kappa Phi. This recogni-tion is in the form of a handsome plague and the designation of GoldenLegion. Many shingles were presented in person by another member ofPi Kappa Phi. The intent is for all to be so presented. Some, due tovarious reasons, were mailed. Here the fraternity is pleased to againacknowledge these beloved members.

Could yourchapter usemore money?

Could your chapter use moremoney? Would you like to decreasedues yet increase fraternity activitiessimultaneously? If your answer tothese questions is "yes", and yourchapter is willing to put in a fewlong, hard hours of work, then thisbulletin is for you.

The key to major fund-raising isan ability to THINK BIG. Carwashes, bake sales, slave auctions,and the like are all admirableundertakings; when you can stretchyour imagination a bit further,however, you might enter a worldof big bucks. Let's look at one PiKappa Phi chapter (we'll call it"Zeta Zeta") as our example . . .

Zeta Zeta has been in the "refrig-erator rental business" for eight

years now. They lease dorm-sizerefrigerators from Collegiate Prod-ucts, Inc. (Utica Tower, Suite 912,21st and Utica, Tulsa, Oklahoma74104) and then rent the units touniversity students. Financially,setting up a refrigerator rental pro-gram isn't much of a problem,because it takes very little initialinvestment. A chapter does nothave to pay CPI until they have(the students') money in theirhands. Thus, for the chapter, supplynever exceeds demand, a greatadvantage for novice businessmen.Both CPI and the chapter receivea fixed percentage of the profits;there is no minimum number ofrentals required.

The rental contract is simple. Theagreement provides for: (1) durationand rate ($40-75 per unit peracademic year is not unreasonable,depending on the refrigerator size;stress the fact that roommates cansplit this cost. CPI will help anychapter to establish a proper rate.);(2) a refundable security depositthat covers possible damage to theunit; and (3) a place to sign.

As a part of their service, Zeta Zetadelivers refrigerators to several drop-off points by Ryder truck. Custom-ers simply meet the truck within acertain time period and take overfrom there. Your chapter may wishto arrange for a central pick-uppoint or to-the-doorstep delivery,depending upon campus regulations,campus size, competition, and timeconstraints. University rules areimportant and must be studied . . .for example, door-to-door solicita-tions might be banned althoughother advertising (posters, etc.)could be allowed. Or, 2.0 cubic

foot units might be permissable,while 4.2 cubic foot refrigeratorsmight not. (CPI leases both!) Thesematters are easily taken care ofindividually, with some planning.

Administratively, Zeta Zeta sepa-rates refrigerator proceeds fromregular chapter funds. A "refrig-erator committee", composed of twoelected members from each classand chaired by a senior, has the finalsay on any use of refrigeratormonies. Proposals are presented atregular brotherhood meetings fordiscussion and are then broughtto the committee for approval. AtZeta Zeta, refrigerator funds are usedmainly for major expenditure —house renovations, emergencyspending, or long-term spending.

Now, how much can this mean fora chapter? Because Zeta Zeta rentedfrom CPI for so long, the refriger-ators were depreciated off CPI'sbooks and became available for sale.Zeta Zeta bought the units and nowearns over $14,000 per year. WOW!That's an awful nice Rose Ball,fellas! Of course, initially it isunlikely that one chapter couldprofit quite as much; a net marginin four figures, though, is certainlyattainable. The pure dollar benefitsare obvious, but other advantagesare not as evident. Because Pi KappaPhi posters, refrigerators, and

PAGE 7

brothers are among the first thingsan incoming freshman notices whenhe arrives at school, recruitment isniiich facilitated. Additionally, thepractice of operating a real businesscan prove to be valuable experience.Finally, that old intangible, brother-hood, is heightened ' simply due tothe close interactions required.

Renting refrigerators is but one wayto raise funds. It has worked wellfor one chapter, and that is why wesuggest it here. Of course, there areinnumerable other opportunities ofwhich your chapter can take advan-tage. CPI can provide for sale orrent foosball tables, lockboxes, andother student needs. You can thinkof several money-makers yourself,we're sure. Don't rule out anypossibility just because it hasn'tbeen tried before . . . in fact, thoseareas are probably just the place tobegin.

For more information, feel free tocontact the Administrative Officeor Collegiate Products, Inc., at theaddress given. We will be more thanhappy to help out!

Good scholarshipis reward in itself

Each chapter of Pi Kappa Phi is entitled to have one of its members recog-nized as its "top" scholar. This individual chapter recognition of scholasticexcellence is acknowledged by the Student Lamp Award. This award ispresented annually by Dr. Jeff Clark, the chairman of the National Edu-cation Committee. For the 1978-79 school year the Fraternity is pleasedto recognize the following recipients:

The men of Omega Chapter finish up their per-formance in singing competition at Purdue witha grand finale. Omega walked away from thecompetition with a first place award. Congrat-ulations Omega! And keep up the spirit.

THE SEVERELY HANDICAPPED NEED A PUSH It stands for Play Units for the Severely Handi-capped, a totally new design concept for teach-ing physically and mentally handicapped child-ren.

These institutionalized children, who willnever experience normal growth, may be blind,or deaf, or both. They may be unable to walkwithout assistance. They usually can't under-stand their environment or react to it. Andthey learn with agonizing slowness.

For these children, conventional playgroundequipment or toys can be self-destructiveweapons. At best, they're merely frustratingand meaningless objects because the childrendon't have the physical capacity to use them.

Play is a fundamental part of our lives. It helpsus to understand our world and respond to it.Call it "recreation" and talk about "normal"people and we all recognize its value. But it'sjust as important ... perhaps more so ... for theseverely handicapped. Because play is a way oflearning, of stimulating senses, of developingminds and bodies, of nourishing imaginations.

That's why Pi Kappa Phi commissioned de-signer Tom Sayre to develop the first PUSHunit for use at Western Carolina Center, astate retardation center. It was the beginningof an effort to bring creative learning envi-ronments to institutionalized children through-out the country.
