PHI CHI CHRONISTER With the firm hand of basset-raising, parrot loving W. S. Chronister the fraternal menagerie of Phi Chi had another successful year. Being very fat with 25 pledges from the previous year. Phi Chi continued in the tradition of foster- ing good social events for the encumbered medical student. An ecumenical effort during the summer resulted in and Inter fraternity Beach Party v ith the four USC Medical fra- ternities. Dr. Barclay Noble extended us the use of his patio and pool for a barbecue party before school started. The hospitality of Dr. and Mrs. Alden Miller was felt again, and the first rush party benefited therefrom. Dr. George Lan- degger also made it a repeat performance with the use of his home for a spaghetti dinner. Phi Chi Wives ' Club helped with the rushing and had discussions on politics and preg- nancy. The long contemplated Big Brother program between alumni and actives became reality this year. This realization was possible only through the mutual belief of actives and alumni that a doctor ' s education must include an under- standing of his future place in the community and the lives of his patients. Officers include: Wayne S. Chronister, Presiding Senior; Albert E. Yellin, Presiding Junior; Robert A. Pedrin, Secretary; Charles Broberg, Treasurer; Billy W. Barnes, Judge Advo- cate; Richard R. Riddell, Guide; James L. Mee, Sentinel; Frederick B. Ruymann, Chapter Editor.
