F1zoNT or THE CnAi'TER 1-lousn, OVERLOOKING THE TENNIS COURTS i 1913i Jfraternitp In 1889 N. Y. M. A. was founded by Col. C. J. VVright, who for many years had been superintendent of the Peekskill Military Academy. He brought with him a large number of the cadets, some of whom were fraternity men. A year later, in the spring, through the efforts of eight of these cadets a charter was secured and Eta Chapter, Pi Phi Fraternity, was established and began its prosperous career. The school grew and prospered for several years and Eta shared in its success. But in 1893 there developed considerable trouble and dissension in thenfaculty and cadet corps, which naturally caused a falling off in the attendance of the school, followed by friction between the authorities and the fraternities. As a result an order was issued banish- ing fraternities from N. Y. M. A. Due to a change in the management, a year later the fraternities were re-established and with a chapter of three members Eta revived her activities and again took her place as an important factor in the school. 132
