DR. NATHAN CLIFFORD RICKER
Of all the Alpha Rho l Chi men who have made names for themselves, in the profession and found exceptionally fond places in the hearts of their brothers there is one whoby his many achievements in a lifetime of giving to the profession and his fraternity, standsout as the inspiration and ideal of many a younger man. It is Dr. Nathan Clifford Ricker,Professor of Architecture, Emeritus. As Professor Rexford Newcomb quotes, "A true pioneer in architectural education in America, a profound scholar, a sympathetic and inspiring'teacher, a gentleman in the highest sense, Dr. Ricker is loved and respected by all withwhom he has come in contact."
Dr. Ricker was faculty advisor of Archus, one of the local fraternities from whichAlpha Rho Chi developed. He was then a constant source of information for the fellows.,He was also a charter membet of the Illinois chapter of Acacia and this experience madehim a more valuable friend as he was thoroughly acquainted. with. fraternity problemsand their solutions. At the time of the natioaalization of the fraternity the charter mem-

·Cabell Hall and the two 'buildings, one on each side of it, facingon two sides of the quadrangle ofwhich Cabell Hall is the third, werebuilt from designs by McKim. Thisquadrangle is a continuation of theoriginal main qu~drangleof the Uni-
-~- ersity design'ed by. Thomas J efferson and named by him "The Lawn."
For nearly a century the Lawnstood as Jefferson had designed it.Along each side were five "pavilions" of classic design with ordersor motifs taken from fanlous Romanbuildings, illustrating all the orderswith several examples. Each pavilion was intended to contain everything 'necessary for one of the teni n d e pen den t and coordinatings·chools which originally composedthe University. The porticos of thesepavilions were connected by coveredwalks along which. between the pavilions, were one-story buildings~
one room deep, containing the students' rooms, each with its separateoutside entrance' on the coveredwalk, while the windows are on theother side, away from the Lawn,where they are nof darkened by the

CHRISTMAS AT IKTINOS
On Thursday evening, December14th, Christmas will be celebratedat Iktinos chapter house. Everyonereceives an appropriately humorousgift from, one of his brothers anonymously. Each gift is to be accompanied by an original poetic gree'ting. This is a traditional affair atIktinos and usually arouses consid-
, erable mirth.
Michigan's annual homecomingon the day .of the Wisconsin gan1e
,was a great day for Iktinos. Quitea few of the 'Alumni were on handto help celebrate. Some of the oldermen who had not been seen in thechapter house for many, monthsturned up and were reminded thatwe are still on the map, and anxiousto help them' enj-oy their visits totheir alma mater. About a dozen ofthem stayed for the house, dancingparty in the evening and seemed tohave a very good time.

SLOW BUT SUREIn our last issue of the Archi was
published an editorial on a subj ectwhich we consider extremely important, and we are glad to be in aposition to print part of a letterwhich was sent to us bv an alumnuswhb states very clearly one view ofthe\;question. 'We hope that otherswill· be' as:iriterested so that we canpe(haps' thrash, things out to somesatisfactory' solution in the near future.
"I for one have always favoredthe policy of expanding slowly, layiriggreat stress up'on the quality ofthe institution. A good school invariably attracts good students andgraduates men of talent. Of course,the school does not necessarily needto be large, but its teaching staffand curriculum should be of highrank. By establishing chapters atsuch institutions we wi'll be buildinga strong organization, which will beprepared later to exert a powerfulinfluence in the architectural and engineering profession. I have alwaysliked to' luok forward to that daywhen Alpha Rho Chi will be calledin as a consultant to reorganizeUniversity curricula, and suggest methods of teaching ,which will fit,a graduate better for the positions in thebusiness world. We should all feelthat Alpha Rho Chi is more than acollege fra terni ty. I ts strength,character, and influence should berefl'ectedin business as well as on~he campus. As ,the years go byand more Alpha Rho Chi men gointo practice, we will find that theolder men will look to the fraternity~o furnish men of ability.

years is good, and if the men of theother chapters are doing as well asfTIOst of the men .from Anthemios,we can congratulate ourselves onthe quality of our chapters. It isquality, not quantity, which will ultimately decide the right to existof a fraternal organization. Thequantity will come naturally as aresult of the high standard set bythe older men. The point I am trying to make clear is that we will bea far stronger organization ten yearsfrom now if we set our standards foradmission of new chapters, high. Ofcourse, we should be ever strivingto expand and grow in the scope ofour endeavors. In other words, Alpha Rho Chi can expand slowly andsteadily, without great pretentions,and be in time a greater and stronger organization than one whichgrows by leaps and bounds. Theboom town rarely becomes a greattrading center, but the city whichbuilds up gradually and firmly soontakes its place at the head of thelist."
CRITICISM AND SUG'GESTION
"I \vould like to offer a littlefriendly criticism of your make-upof the sheet based on some experience' of my own. I have writtenthe' stuff from this chapter, and,though I'll freely admit it is not ofa high order and merits plenty ofediting, I still think it would readmuch better if it were kept all together-and the same applies to thestuff from the other chapters. Thereis no object that I can see to yourseparating 'various items, and Iwould advise you to edit and rewrite chapter letters as little as possible. If letters are consistently bun1,ask the chapter to elect a new scribe.Now I realize that you have to getyour print shop used to your material, and you have to get the restof us trained to the way you needand want the stuff, in other words,that in all this formative period, youare having a heck of a time. -Sodon't take my criticism too bitterlyand rush out and jump in the RiverStyx, or whatever it is that keepsyour twins apart up there.
"I liked that breeze about taking
an interest in the convention youhad in the second number,' and I'msure it will have some results. Alpha Rho Chi is really headed nowfor more prosperous times, eventhough the time will never comewhen everything runs in oil. I attended the s-ixth convention, and Ifeel that we have made great stridessince then. Our greatest problemtoday is providing for a man whocan be paid to put in full time onaffairs of the Grand Council and theArchi and thus strengthen our national body. ,The Archi is the bestmeans we have to bring about thisarrangen1ent, by working towardthat goal. It probably will takesome years to accomplish, and certainly will not come until our chap~
ters increase in number, and ouralumni body grows in proportion,and assumes a more active interestand responsibility."
These two paragraphs are whatwe consider that constructive criticism, which gives us some inklingof what the chapters think of ourefforts and what they desire .inourproduction. With regard to thefirst idea presented we wish to makea short explanatory statement. Ourpurpose in rewriting chapter newswas the result of our efforts, first, toadd that appearance of interestwhich a sheet. of short articles always presents~ second, to give a uniformity to the style of reports fromthe ,chapters, third, because it meanta great saving in time in that oplyon.e'thorough proof-reading and rearrangement was necessary, andoecause an article here and anotherthere could be cut out bodily withvery Iittle time lost through recomposing the sheet when lack of spaceso required. Furthermore, it madeit possible to hastily throw in latematerial of which we have had quitesufficient during the first two issues.We are doing out utmost to bringout at least six issues and had mapfled out a campaign whereby ~e
felt assured that that many were Insight, and our policy was partly dueto that. However, we should liketo hear from the fraternity, particularly from the alumni, and we shallguide ourselves accordingly.' Whatdo you wish with regard to this matter?

At the northern end of the Lawn,on its axis, is the Library, the building designed by Jefferson as thecenter and dominant feature of theUniversity. Modeled closely on theRoman Pantheon, though smaller,it is called the Rotunda.
About the end of the last centurythis building was destroyed by fireand McKim, Meade, and White werecommissioned as architects for thereconstruction. When this wasfinished it was decided to build threenew buildings to accommodate thegrowth of the University. Thesouthern end of the Lawn, whichhad been left open by Jefferson andhad stood so for nearly a century,was selected as the site.
_Stanford White is said to havesaid that he did not dare to presumeto design a building to stand tooclose to J efferson's Lawn and on thesame level. Whether this is trueor .not, Cabell Hall and its flankingbuildings, while on the axis of theLawn, are at a little distance andtwo terraces in the interveningspace place them on a lower level.
O.n the second floor of CabellHall, looking out between the beautifully'detailed Ionic capitals of itsportico at the Rotunda and theLawn, beautiful and rich in tradition, is the drawing and paintingstudio of the Architectural Department~a large- room with a highceilingpierced-· by two large skylights, its green-gray walls decorated with ,casts and specimens ofthe work of the Department.

There will alwaysbe sixteen men who, as long as theylive, will have a special place intheir hearts for that room as thescene of the birth and infancy ofKallikrates Chapter, where theyfirst came into the bonds of fellowship of Alpha Rho Chi.

bers went to Dr. Ricker for aid andit was he that helped to work outthe ritual that most of us know sowell. He was at that time p'rofessor of Architectural History andhe remained as such until 1917.
Let the attention of those of youwho do not know Dr. Ricker and ofhis works be called to ProfessorNe,vcomb's article in the June,1922, number of Western ...A.rchitect.
You, men of Anthemios, know thecontents of that article but we arenot sure that you have heard of therecent steps taken by the chapterto in some way honor him who shallever mean so much to us. At thatconvocation of March fifteenth,which the University of Illinois heldin honor of Dr. Ricker upon his completion of a half century of professional service at the University, thechapter formally announced andfounded the Ricker Prize in Architectural History, an annual prizeopen to Juniors in Architecture andArchitectural Engineering 'for thebest exercise of a nature to be specified yearly by the professor of architectutal history. The first prizeamounts to twenty-five dollars, thesecond, fifteen, and the third, tendollars, each to be awarded in thewinner's choice of architectural his-
tory books.
At this same convocation we presented the Department of Architecture with the bronze bust picturedbelow, which now stands mountedon a pedestal in the Ricker Library.
The bust was done by Mr. S. Chat,vood Burton of the University ofMinnesota. The idea and the financial responsibility were fostered bythe Anthemios Alumni Association.
THE EIGHTH ANNUALCONVENTION
1'he principal energies of Demetrios are now directed toward theone goal of entertaining the EighthAnnual Convention of Alpha RhoChi in such a manner that its business may be expedited successfully,and at the same time afford thedelegates the most pleasant timepossible. Accommodations for alldelegates are being planned for atthe house, while the business sessions will be at the Chittenden Hotel, where the formal banquet concluding the convention will be held.A smoker ,,,ith the informal or "Circus" initiation for the two neophytes selected for the conventionritual will be held the night of December 28th for those who arrive inColun1bus in time, while the formalinitiation will come Friday night.The delegates will eat at the chapter house with the exception of the

On December 4th George Freeberg was presented with the cupwhich MnesiclesAlumni gave us forthe recognition of the Sophomorewho in his Freshman year rankedhighest in scholarship and good fellowship. George is also some athletein addition to being a real student.
ALUMNI
In our letter from Bill Munson(Mnesicles) of Mabel, Minnesota,he says, "I might add that I amalways kept more or less busy, because I have taken upon me the responsibilities of a husband, and thatain't all."
"Pee Wee" Dunlap (Anthemios'16) was one of those who receivedhonorable mention in the ChicagoTribune Building Competition.When we consider that this competition was international in character,with the best architects from America, England, France and even Finland competing, Alpha Rho Chishould feel proud to have one of itsbrothers among the eight highest receiving awards.
"Too damned busy to write a'letter! Am not in the architecturalgame yet, my interests are with theArchi and Alpha Rho Chi. I-Iere isto it's success!" Here endeth thefirst epistle according to "Deed"Didrikson (Mnesicles '20) who isnow working for the BethlehemSteel Works for the price of hissalary.
Clair W. Ditchy (Iktinos) in a letter full of news, announces that heassociated himself with Mr. T. I vanDise last July and also says, "Mr.Dise is a Pennsylvania man and \vasin the design office of Cass Gilbertand after the war was designer for.Albert Kahn. We have been blessed
-sometimes we think cursed-witha great deal of work." The l\1ichiganArchitect and Engineer of Octoberfeatures some residences and clubhouses designed by Brother Ditchyand his associate.
Wm. Fanning, an old Iktinos man,left for Europe early in Novemberand will travel abroad for a year.
The editor was quite surprised toreceive a message for Brother LynnW. Fry (Iktinos) on the letterheadof the office of the Michigan stat¢architect. His name was displayetlin the upper left-hand corner wi~h
the title of state architect affixed.
Brother John H. Baker is quitejubilant over the coming of a girlinto his household on August 22,1922. John is at present locatedwith Burroughs and Deeken, Architects, of Cincinnati, Ohio.
From Brother Baker's letter wealso glean the information thatBrother Paul Markey receivedanother architect into the markeyfamily.
Sidney M. Strong (Muesides) visited the chapter house to take in theMichigan game. Brother Strong isin "cahoots" with his father in theautomobile sales business in .A..twate-r, Minnesota.
Quoting from the letter from C. Ii'.Dunham Jr. (Demetrios) '15, as herequests, "I am chief designer withB. C. Bonfoey, A. I. A., architect ofTampa, Florida, and have been withhim for the last two years. I findthis climate, way down sout~, aglorious one and I delight to bask inthe balmy ocean breezes whiledreaming out Spanish masterpiecesto be planted among the tropicalpalms."
After many months of anxiouswaiting we at last received an epistlefro m B rot her Ralph Hammett"Ham" (Mnesicles '19), extracts ofwhich we will quote.
"It is needless to say that I an1well satisfied here at Harvard where

I am doing the best I can and finddesign under Professor Haffner veryinspiring. I really believe that Harvard, under its new dean, P1rofessorEdgell, is entering upon a new et:'aand is. destined to become the leading architectural school of the country."
He has been asked to act as criticfor the "47 workshop," Harvard'soriginal dramatic organization.While Mr. Hammett was an instructor at Minnesota, he was director of the Arab Dramatic Club,which is composed of male technicalstudents only.
Herbert Kreinkamp (Mnesicles,'22), who has been enlployed locallysince graduation, weighs anchor andsets sail sometime before this issuereaches the mailing stage (we believethe date is not defini tely set as yet),his port of destination being LosAngeles, where his brother is alreadypretty securely established. Goodluck, "Krink."
READ WITH CARE
If any of the brothers should behold a quarter of a dozen hungry,bewhiskered specilnens of the "genushomo" approaching with a readysmile and a perfectly respectable credentials card, do not think you havediscovered an imposter for they really are Harry MacKenzie and someof his pals working their way southfor the winter by "riding the blinds"or otherwise. Harry is the duly authorized walking delegate fromMnesicles chapter.
THE FUSSERS' BUREAU
L. H. Christen in a letter suggeststhat another department be added tothe list of special activities to whichthe Archi has dedicated space in itscolumns. Personally \ve are not sosure but for good luck we are beginning it this time and shall let its continuation depend upon the demandthat mayor may not arise. To getthe thing started he submits the suggestion "'Thich we quote below:
"I wonder if I could make use ofthe Archi as a 'fusser' bureau? Ihave a couple of very fine young lady
friends in Los Angeles, and shouldlike to find out if any of the Andronieus brothers would be interested tomeet them. They are both '"goodlookers" and mighty good scouts. Infact, one of them was my sweetheart,back in the days when I was inschool. If Carl Juline Anthemios isin L. A. he might be interested. Communicate directly with me."
The editors of the Archi wish youall a "Merry Christmas and a HappyNew Year."
