IIAMPDEN-SYDNE Y SIGMA ('HI'S were out in full foree Thursday to meet .1 Dwight Peterson. Sigma Chi grand consul, on his trip to Virginia chapters. Above are; front row, William Banks Peter son of Hollins: Dr. Ray A. Moore, college physician; Malcolm M. Christian. Richmond attorney and Virginia grand praetor: Dr. D. M. Allan, head of the department of philosophy and director of the guidance clinic, and Peterson, who is president of City Securities corporation in Indianapolis, Ind.; back row Marcellos Waddill, instructor in mathematics, and Dr. Kay A .Moore, Jr. Farnivilie physician. Fraternity Head is Investment Hanker Old Dominion Visit Brings Sigma Chi National President To Hampden-Sydney

One might expect an active fraternity man to guard his po sition and that of his fraternity against possible encroachment by other fraternities. Not so. Expanding college enrollments have challenged the fraternity system to further expansion, the national president of one of the nation's best known fraternities said at Hampden-Sydnej Thurs day. J. Dwight Peterson, grand con sul of Sigma Chi. noted that no national fraternities have been organized since 1.925. These .-re now 61 national fraternities with a membership of 1,600.000. As Peterson sees it, fraternities are faced with several alterna tives. With tlie 'first, there would be increased numbers of men in each chapter. Size Important

"Most of the chapters are al ready as large as they should be to fulfill the purposes of good small group living." Peterson said in deploring such a possibility. A second possibility is further expansion of existing fraternities —having exist big fraternities es tablish new chapters on other campuses. This is really no pat answer to the problem, according to Peter son, for when a fraternity reaches the .size of Sigma Chi, with its 127 chaptt rs. there are few col leges left where the fraternity could establish new chapters. Peterson's Virginia trio includ ed a visit to such a college. The University of Richmond, where Chi Sigma has petitioned Sigma Chi for membership. Peterson quotes projected college enroll ment figures to support this stand for establishment of new fratern ities. During the week Peterson visit ed each of the Sigma Chi chap ters in the state. Since his elec- ! tion at the fraternity’s centennial grand chapter in 1955 in Cincin nati, Peterson has visited 82 Sig ma Chi chapters. His-trips have taken him from coast to coast and into Canada, where Sigma Chi has four chap ters. Home base is Indianapolis, Ind.. where Peterson is president of City Securities corporation, an. Indiana investment banking serv- I ice. His interest in education is I widespread, for he is a trustee of Indiana University and Hanover; College, as well as president of the Indianapolis school board commission. In the fraternity. Peterson has served as grand trustee and as | treasurer of Sigma Chi Founda lowing accomplishments: conducted 16 farm enterprises, earning $1460; : conducted 18 improvement projects; applied 697 self hours: applied 37 improved practices: has $3,000 in vested in farming; treasurer of Piedmont FFA Federation: member of crops, livestock and forestry jjudging teams; and maintains a 90 scholastic average. Lee took the livestock farming award for the following reasons: I owns six purebred Angus cows; ’ three Angus heifers, one purebred Angus bull: one brood sow; five pigs; seeded ten acres of pasture; constructed 280 rods of fence: and took several prizes at the various local fairs. Billy Lee also took the public speaking award since he won over 18 other members in the chapter and placed third in the Federation contest Harry Bryan was awarded the farm mechanics award for the fol lowing accomplishments: owns one third interest in tractor, combine, corn picker, plow, truck and mower, helped construct a trailer: recon u.i.oned a mower; serviced and op erated tractor and combine; helped c nstruct broiler house and two sheds; assisted in putting modern plumbing fixtures In home: and con structed 65 rods of hog fence.

tion. Ills son, John D. Peterson, was consul of the Sigma Chi chapter at Indianapolis Universi ty. A daughter. Mrs. D. C. Dan ielson, is married to a Sigma Chi and living in New Castle, Ind. Mrs. Peterson, the nation's num ber one Sweetheart of S;gma Chi. is a member of Sigmas, an organ ization of Sigma Chi wives Only outsider in this Sigma Chi family is Mrs. Robert Ravens burg, Peterson’s daughter, who is married to a Theta Chi. Peterson brushes this off, telling the story of his grandson, now three, who tells his Theta Chi father that he’s going to be a Sigma Chi—

“just like Pete.” Peterson's visit to Hampden Sydney College was "purely so cial” he told the members of Sig ma Sigma chapter. "I am glad tc say that there's not a tiling that I have to check on." lie said. He was welcomed by Dr. Joseph. C Robert. Hampden-Sydney pre sident and a member of Sigma Chi. Sigma Chi faculty members. Dr D. M. Allan. Dr. R. A. Moore and Marcellus Waddill, were on hand to greet Peterson. Mrs. Peterson and Malcolm M. Christian.
