Theta Chis Living in New House Designed by Student Architect
By Georgeann Ryberg
Frank Lloyd Wright? No, it's DeRos Hogue, Dodge City senor and architecture major, who designed the new Theta Chi social fraternity house.
The Theta Chi house, located at Ninth Street and Emery Road, is designed in two levels—study tower and lower level. Between the two levels there is a patio. On the study tower side of the patio, a stone wall with a water fall which flows into a moat adds to the attractiveness of this recreation area.
A built-in T.V. and High Fidelity set adds to the uniqueness of the library. Above and on either side of the set are book shelves. At the west end of the library there is a fireplace which also opens onto the patio.
Keeping in mind the need for storage space, Hogue had in his plans room for storage behind the paneled walls in the library. The contrasting red carpet, dark paneling, and white contemporary light
fixtures add to the decor of the library, which is also used for the chapter room.
In the study tower, the dormitory section of the house, each study contains three built-in desks and book shelves. The corner rooms are designed for four. Each of the three floors are decorated in a different color.
Many people have the idea that the outside stairway is the only entrance into the study tower. Actually it is a glorified fire escape. There is another stairway at the end of a breeze-way that joins the study tower and lower level.
To "top off" the new Theta Chi house, there is a roof top garden and penthouse which are used for social events.
An open house will be held when landscaping and the driveway are completed.

WHAT KIND OF MAN WEARS TAYLOR-MADE SHOES?
You know him at a glance. Good taste underlines his confidence . . . the unerring cut of his clothes . . . the custom character of his shoes. They're superlatively Taylor-Made, rivalling the custom bootmaker's art in their distinction of last and pattern — their elegance of leather. The value is outstanding.
