This book was released on 2017-11-07 with total page 26 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Record of the Hampden-Sydney Alumni Association, Vol. 18: April, 1944 Less than six months ago Admiral Callahan, when ordering an attack on a superior Japanese force at Suva Bay, gave the typically American order: Pick the biggest one and start shooting. Admiral Callahan lost his life. The superior Jap force was ignominiously defeated. Slightly more than a year ago a gallant commander of a gallant little group of Americans on Wake Island, the commander of a little group which knew from the begin ning that it was hopelessly out - numbered, hopelessly under-equipped and without a possible chance of being relieved, when queried as to what he needed, sent back the typically American answer: Send us more Japs. Out of the early days of American participation in World War I comes the story of an American Sergeant whose comment on an order to retreat was the typically American comment: Retreat hell. We've just got here. From the Civil War Battle of the Crater comes the story of a Confederate Colonel who with his men was blown sky high by the powder blast which gave the battle its name, who as some of them passed him in the air, is said to have called out the typically American order: Rally boys, when you hit the ground.

The result is that he either puts an additional burden on his parents, who may be making a great effort to give him an education, or else he leaves college in debt to his fraternity, thus impairing his sense of obligation and putting an additional charge on those who do pay their dues and contribute their part to the social demands made on the chapter. What would seem to be of greater importance to the fraternity itself is the fact that a number of boys whose breeding, ability, and promise would make them most desirable and congenial fraternity men and reflect credit on the fraternity, have to decline because they cannot afford the cost.
