' Assembly Banquet Honors Alumni; House Gives History of Organization The Phi Assembly honored several alumni at a banquet Mon day night in the dining hall of the Baptist church. The honored guests included Chancellor and Mrs. House, Dean J Fred Weaver, Mr. and Mrs. Claude Teague, and Mrs. Albert Coates. Speaker Ernie House intro duced the guests, several of whom spoke during the evening. Chancellor House related some of the prominent phases in the history of the Phi assembly and compared it to the patterning of Phi Beta Kappa. He stated that work on a debate, when he was in school, was equivalent to work on a Master thesis. He said that the assembly had taught much parliamentary procedure and al though there was a time in the j University when varsity speak-, ing was not prevalent, he be lieved it was coming back. He stated the real way to handle difficulties is to meet them with something better and he urged the Phi members to bring back the "tug of war" be tween the intellectuals. Mrs. Coates said, "One of the most remarkable possessions of the University is the student re cords of the Phi and Di assem blies. The minutes of some of the meetings show hours of work. These records are some of the best student records in the Uni ted States today." Mr. Teague said, "I learned a lot from the Phi. When you look back over something you often wonder what was the most important thing you got out of it. When I remember my college days, I believe the friendships made in the Phi have meant more to me and have been longer lasting than any other activity." He re viewed the rules of fines, time United Press Morrison Awarded Radio Internship To Work at WPTF Joseph L.
