Delta Tau Delta Traces Origin To Quarrel In Old German Club
This is one of a series of U.D.K. articles on organized houses.
Chances are that Gamma Tau chapter of Delta Tau Delta would it be here today had not an old KU German club disbanded bese of a quarrel between the men and women members.
The German language club known as the Allemania club was formed at KU in 1894. When it disbanded, 11 of its old members organized a new local fraternity. They assumed the property and liabilities of the old club and became known as the Keltz club.
In the spring of 1913 the Keltz club issued a petition to Delta Tau Delta, and on Nov. 20, 1914, 44 actives were initiated into the national fraternity to install the Gamma Tau chapter.
The chapter's first house was the present Varsity house, located at 1th and Indiana streets. In 1927 the house at 1111 W. 11th street was built. This has been their home ever since.
Nationally Delta Tau Delta was founded in 1853 at Bethany College, West Virginia. There are 75 under-graduate and 72 alumni chapters.
Prominent Gamma Tau alumni include Martin B. Dickinson of Kansas City, Mo., national president of Delta au Delta and Cal Morrow, past resident of the KU Relay club, chairman of KU World War II Memorial drive and now president of the ayhawk club in Kansas City.

"One day I walked into my room and found this football on my bed," this is Barbara Fordham's explanation of the football practice which has been going on at the Tri-Delt house for two weeks.
Football Gift Starts New Fad At Tri Delt House
It all started during initiation week. Each pledge has a secret "big sister" who bestows unexpected gifts during the week. The football was a gift from Barbara's "secret sister" who turned out to be her roommate, Ann Bonecutter.
"I wish you could have been there and heard me scream," continues Barbara. "I just idolize the game and have always wanted a football real bad but didn't feel like putting out the money for one. And now I've been given one."
Her passion for the game had been a joke around the house and she had received a lot of teasing about it. When her sorority sisters found out she finally had a football, "they nearly died of laughter. Then they all wanted to learn how to play."
"Now we go out all the time,
New Haven, Conn.—(IP)—Since so many college men spend both time and money on weekends at women's colleges, a group of Yale students have now compiled a handbook to help the young man when he dates a college girl.
Yale Students Collect Dating Hints For Men
The book is called 'Going Places' and is a guide to 20 Eastern women's colleges. There is a map of each campus, important telephone numbers, details about curfew, as well as a critique of nearby restaurants and nightclubs.
George P. Craighhead, '52, of Detroit, Mich., is editor of the Yale board that prepared the handbook which they plan to sell for one dollar to college men throughout the East. "Information about each women's college comes directly from the college officials," he explained, but added that his board did not stop there. About 40 college girls from 20 colleges supplied "inside" facts about their own campus to aid visiting men.
Of the 20 colleges outlined, 19 are real schools, the twentieth is mythological. The editors have created a non-existent woman's college located on a non-existent hill in New Hampshire. Life there is easy and the regulations lax, and the editors are hoping that the 19 other colleges may follow suit.

sometimes between classes but mostly between 4 and 6 in the af- "Barbara said. "The other girls picked it up just by playing, then we taught each other. I do most of the passing and we kick, scrimmage and everything else. We have some good blockers.
"It's silly to think football is just for boys." Barbara insists. "It's good for girls, too. We get a lot of exercise and have lots of fun. We had a football team at Wichita East and we used to get together and even work out plays. My brother taught me a lot about playing."
The Tri-Delt team often has an audience, and sometimes participants, from the nearby fraternity houses. Then, too, people driving by stop once in a while to watch.
Among the regulars listed by Barbara as "out for the team" are Georgia Ann Earlywine, Patty Garrett, Mary Gayle Loveless and Mary Middlekaff. But the game is open to "just anyone who wants to join us."
Barbara's love for football extends, of course, to the regular University games. "I get so excited watching them," she admits. "No kidding, didn't you ever want to go down on the field and help them out?"
