Phi Beta Kappa Elects 39 Seniors to Honor
Thirty-nine University of Kansas seniors have been elected to Phi Beta Kappa, national honorary fraternity in liberal arts, it was announced today.
The selection of the 39 seniors added to the election of 9 seniors in November, whose exceptionally high grades entitled them to membership in their seventh semester, brings to 48 the number chosen this academic year. This is almost 10 per cent of the seniors eligible for consideration by Phi Beta Kappa. Additional seniors may be chosen at Commencement in June.
Initiation ceremonies will precede the annual banquet May 11 in the Kansas Union. Dr. George L. Anderson, chairman of the history department, will be the speaker.
The 39 seniors elected to Phi Beta Kappa are:
Mildred Gladys Andes, Lawrence; Margaret A. Brown, Kansas City, Mo.; Donald H. Close, Bonner Springs; Raymond E. Davis, Neodesha; Martin B. Dickinson, Kansas City, Mo.; Spencer E. Dickson, Topeka.

The KU Chapter also elected Mary Alden, Hutchinson, a 1959 graduate. Miss Alden's election was held up last year because of a technicality, which was waived in yesterday's election.
Phi Beta Kappa, originated in the United States, over 150 years ago in a tavern "bull session."
The idea was born one night in 1776 when five William and Mary College students in Williamsburg, Va., trudged through sleet and snow to the Sir Walter Raleigh tavern where they were in the habit of holding intellectual "bullfests."
Here they organized the fraternity, the first Greek letter organization in the United States. It introduced the characteristics of secrecy, a badge, and mottoes in Greek and Latin.
In 1831, secrecy was relinquished. The Society was transformed from a membership basis to a purely honor basis, admitting to its membership a small number of scholars of highest standing. In 1875, women were allowed membership.
Although membership in Phi Beta Kappa is the elusive goal of almost every serious student in college, one Amherst undergraduate in 1932 showed no interest when informed that he was to be awarded one of the coveted keys. He assailed Phi Beta Kappa as a "purely capitalistic organization." The $5 initiation fee sourced his indignation.
