lllll Frater Chatter The oldest non-sectarian fraternity at L.l.U. is Tau Epsilon, founded in 1929. Indigenous to L.l.U., Tau Ep has always boasted that it numbers among its mem- bers some of the outstanding men in the school. This year, co-editors Arnie Hano and Irving Feigelman ot Seawanhaka, and sophomore president Mike Kozonis wore Tau Epsilon pins. That, however, wasn't everything. Tau Ep was instru- mental in the formation of the Committee on Student Awards in Student Council, when Manny Friedman initiated the plan in an issue of Seawanhaka. It also worked With the lnter-Fraternity Council on its Thanksgiving Day drive, and par- ticipated in the arranging of such all- university functions as the Varsity Dance. Officers: Irving Feigelman, chancellor; Arnold Hano, Vice-chancellor; Emanuel Friedman, scribe-bursar. Members: Iules Bernhard, Michael Kozonis, loseph Chall, Bernard Schwartzbach, Stanley Remezy Charles Appel, and Philip Weinteld. There were supposed to be two pages devoted to pictures of the fraternity groups, but only one was able to tax its members enough to pay for the picture according to the laws governing the publication of SOUND. So all we can do is talk about them. There's lohnny Yengo's Alpha Gamma Beta, the youngest fraternity to be recog- nizecl by the lFC. lncluding among its members Student Council treasurer Mike Rizzo, AGB. is famous in L.l.U. history for its annual Hobo Hop, the largest dance, aside from the Varsity Dance, held yearly in the school. Its members also came through in droves in working hand in hand with Yengo and Student Council, and the lFC. tor the benetit ot Long Island University. Then comes Rocco Natale, Rocco Pap- pa, and Alpha Lambda Upsilon, the tra ternity that hobnobs with the elite. ln- cluded among the honorary members of this, the only all-Christian group in the l.F.C., are S. I. Picariello, lord of the gym, and L.l.U.'s most famous athlete, Marius Russo. Don't forget that l.F.C. Chieftain Natale, who is responsible tor that organization's high rating, is one of ALUYs white-haired boys. Phi Tau Lambda, the scientists tra- ternity, is noted for two things, i.e., Lew Sheldon and Al Gruder. But even they can't overshadow the rest of the mem- bers, including Murray Silverberg, presie dent of Lancet. Sheldon and Gruder have made their mark as the best prom Chairmen ever to grace L.l.U. besides being vice-president and secretary ot the senior class, respectively. It was Sheldon who led the l.F.C.'s Thanksgiving drive, Alpha Mu Sigma, sole Jewish traty is again one of the predominant organiza- tions in the school, even though, for the first time, they cannot boast of any high ranking senior officers. Their strength lies in the lower classes, including among their members, Bob Spielberg, sophomore treasurer, and SY Levy, ex- secretary of Student Council.

t--'-'-tlr .-Qf14 ','..'ff 'th'rwln ? u. .4. - U ml I I In case you weren't sure about it, heres how you felt about life in general and Long Is- land University in particular when you were a senior: Your favorite morning newspaper was the New York Times, and your favorite evening ditto Stan McGovern and the Post; Seaawnhaka, your favorite L.I.U. undergrad- uate weekly, got votes too, but not enough to: win. You liked almost all your profs, but Dr. Hudson best of all, with Keur, Keen, Foster, and Noble giving him a lot of competition, Dr. Foster's phenomenal Novel course made it the umpteenth time in a row. Dinner, how-w ever, came in for some of the gravy in this category. You didntt enjoy sophomore Philo very much. When you think of L.I.U., you think of basketball; when you were asked your favorite sport to play and to watch, you answered, very loudlyebasketball. Some of you, more frivolous than your confreres, pre- ferred the following games: bathing the baby, bundling, coffee and couch. You liked to listen to the music of Glenn Miller's orchestra, but you liked him best when he was playing Stardust. Some of you, however, thrilled most ' palpably to the strains of your own Alma Mater. Personitying the spirit of inquiry that everybody expects youth to personify, and in common with Baby Snooks, your favorite question was Why? Because the proportion Senior Soundings of males to females in the voting population of the class was preponderantly in favor of the former, your favorite answer was Yes. The Bible and SOUND beat out For Whom The Bell Tolls for honors in the literary field, while Shakespeare, Hemingway and Sinclair Lewis shared the glory of being your favorite author. Shakespeare and O'Neill were your favorite dramatists, but Shechtman Through Center was your favorite play. He even beat Hellzapoppint, which came in a close second There was a three-way tie for your favorite actor, Cary Grant, Iames Stewart, and Paul Mum; your favorite actress was Bette Davis. None of the tour, however, appeared in your favorite movie, Gone With The Wind. Your favorite diversion, politely termed on most of your ballots, was You Guess, but you weren't averse to dancing or sleeping, either. You liked to eat steak best of all. Bob Hope's pro- gram ran away with the vote for your favorite radio show. FDR, Pres. Roosevelt, Franklin D! Mr. President, however you worded it, was your overwhelming Choice for the out- standing figure in the news. He beat Adolph by forty votes. thatever your reasons, you liked your sophomore year least of the tour, and your senior year the best by a large ma- jority. Thats all, brother . . .
