Fraterni Of Tj -- CARL O The years a student spends at a college or university are filled with various and sundry types of activities. These may i n c lu de sports, politics, social life and other pastimes, but the real pur pose of college life is obtaining an education. All other activities are subsidiaries of the main bus ness of academic achievement. Fraternities foster development in all facets of undergraduate life. They offer a young man the op portunity to improve himself in many ways while diligently striv ing to do as well as he can in his studies. Karl Beason is a sterling example of scholarship, person ableness and gentlemanliness. One of the recent initiates of the Blue Key National Honor So ciety and also the Omicron Delta Kappa Sigma Fraternity, Karl is a brother of Kappa Sigma social fraternity. In his fraternity he serves as I. F. C. Representative and Alumni Secretary. He has been the man in charge of rituals. In the field of public and alumni relations he is a zealous worker. Karl is a member of E.E.E. and K.S.K., Fraternity Editor of the Garnet and Black, Secretary of the YMCA and was last year's Ugly Man On Campus.

He is an only child, and, judging from his grades, it seems he has enough intelligence for a whole brood of children. The elder Mr. Beason runs a thriving printing establish ment which provides the incom. for the Beason family and also summer employment for Karl.
