Edited by j. Howard Wagner, the NORMAL ADVANCE was pub- lished monthly until 1913, when an annual publication was initiated. The new ADVANCE was an extension of the former book as it contained pictures showing factions of student life, athletics, dances, and graduation pic- tures. In 1924, THE SYCAMORE replaced the name NORMAL ADVANCE. When the SYCAMORE began the yearly pub- lication of student life in '24, a weekly publication con- tinued to use the name NORMAL ADVANCE. In 1929, the weekly publication adopted the title THE IN- DIANA STATESMAN. Since that time, the paper had grown to a publication of four days a week, with five day coverage planned for the fall of 1970. Other university publications of note included INK SENSE, a college humor magazine and PIED PIEPING, a student poetry magazine. THE BLUE BOOK, a student, faculty and organizational hand- book is presently published by the Delta Sigma Pi Bus- iness Fraternity.

1 f t was some surprise to find that the first fraternity on the Indiana State Campus was Phi Delta Theta, which was formed at the schools very beginning, but died after a very short life. A local group known as Forum was accepted by the University in 1951, as a chapter of national Tau Kappa Epsilon, Lambda Chi Alpha was accepted during the same year. Next came the Theta Chi's who were also a local organization going under Tau Sigma Alpha. They re- ceived their national charter from Theta Chi in 1952, and Kappa Zeta became Sigma Phi Epsilon two years later. Following Sigma Phi Epsilon there was a four year break before another national fraternity arrived on the campus. In 1957, Alpha Delta of Pi Lambda Phi was organized and chartered from the local Alpha Delta Epsilon fraternity. In April of 1963, Alpha Tau Omega colony re- ceived their national charter. Five years later Kappa Sigma and Sigma Pi both received their charters. In 1968, Phi Delta Theta reappeared on the In- diana State University Campus, and again their colony Phi Delta Eta was presented with a national charter in the fall of 1969. Also receiving their national char- ters the same year were two Black fraternities, Omega Psi Phi and Alpha Phi Alpha. Phi Alpha also received their charter and became Sigma Alpha Epsilon. Presently there are two colonies applying for their national charters. Alpha Epsilon Pi. colonized in the fall of 1969, is seeking to be the first jewish fra- ternity on the campus, and the Delta Colony of Phi Gamma Delta fFijij is also seeking their national charter. Tradedy struck the Theta Chi's as their house was destroyed by fire in 1970. if l -v Ak'-Zlfi The men of Sigma Phi Epsilon serenade their pinmates on Val- entine's Day. M.
