Riassunto

Excerpt from Alpha-Phi Chapter of the Kappa Sigma Fraternity, an Historical Sketch, 1896-1911: Being a Short Narrative of Kappa Sigma's Career at Bucknell University, Together With an Account of the Said Institution

As to the cuts which appear in this book. The cut of Bucknell University was made from the very excellent painting by the New York artist, Richard Rummell, in 1907. The cut of the Phi Epsilon society for the school year 1895-6 is the nearest ap proach to being a picture of the Charter Members of alpha-phi Chapter that exists. No picture of the Charter Members as such was ever taken. In the cut referred to appears a picture of one who never became a Kappa Sigma, although he was one of its most enthusiastic and influential supporters while in College. I refer to George Tilden Ritter, a member of the Class of '98, who entered Bucknell from Lafayette College, where he had been initiated intothe Chi Phi Fraternity. As no Chapter of Chi Phi existed at Bucknell he identified himself with the local society, Phi Epsilon, for which he hoped to secure a Charter from Chi Phi. The opportunity presented itself, however, of getting a Charter from the Kappa Sigma Fraternity without further delay and he with drew from the membership when the new Chapter was founded. He was of very great assistance to Alpha Phi in her early years and is now a successful physi clan in Williamsport, Pa. The cut of the school year l898~9, shows the smallest Chapter alpha-phi ever had. The cuts for the years 1903-4, 1907-8 and 19089 show three of its most representative Chap ters, the last cut also showing the Loving Cup won by the Chapter at the Denver Conclave. The final cut shows the present Chapter.
