I'll work on Hugh, who's not yet responded to Mr Holmes. You too, Johnnie. I recall well listening to The Band's second album in your and Hugh's second floor room at the top of the stairs just to the left, among several other adventures. Yodel-odel-oh-eh-he-hoo.

I'm one of the folks from the original Synergy House group that you've invited to this group - not sure if that was by accident or intent.
Wonderful to see this picture!
I thought we Synergites were pretty wild and crazy (I even lived with some folks in tents up on Skyline for one quarter), but, reading your stories, we may have been tame in comparison.
The wild adventures we all lived through is the Stanford that I remember with great fondness.

Thanks...I think this is the kind of membership where you know whether you belong or not....Beta Chi was more than just a place...it really didn't matter if or when you lived there or not.  Synergy seemed to keep the spirit!

I do remember the Beer machine on the porch...25 cents for a Rainier Ale. And, FYI, altho I never lived in tents off Skyline, I did live up there for the last 40 years!  Not far from Kesey's Honor Camp incarceration in the mid '60s.

We could have a quiz show at the reunion to decide which group was crazier.  My first question would be:  "Were you ever raided by the FBI?"

My mom was up visiting the day that we were staked out by 14 (number?) undercover cars which led to the unfortunate arrest of a non member but hanger on doing a "favor" for one of the members who was out of town.  I still have the Daily article and/or my mom's letter to the editor somewhere, can't remember which.  It was big news on campus as the administration was not notified.  I lived across the hall from the action on the third floor at the time.  The funny things was that nobody thought it strange that all these cars were in the parking lot all day including a pick up truck and a taxi.

How exactly did we get rid of those 13 suitcases?  As I recall, the total weight of the suitcases was 1 oz times the number of students on campus.  Or was it 2 ounces?  Such a long time ago.  Memories fade.

This might have been taken after Rush in the Spring of 1965. There are people in the picture who weren't there '65-''66. Chip is third from bottom right with the messy blond hair.

You're right.  It has to have been one of the few times I wore a tie!

Plaster looks like he is on a casting call for Rebel without a Cause--the Musical.
This has to be a picture from Spring of 65 as some of those depicted dropped out by Fall.

I think it is on my office computer. I also have some pictures of Bob Marusi, Brade Zebal, Carl Bratenahl and Becky Romney....BradZebal too.
It's funny how nowadays you cannot walk five feet w/o somebody taking a picture but nobody seemed to be taking many pictures back then.

Friends:

Beta Chi was a highlight of my life. Could you change my address on this group to awer...@allanwernick.com please. I am moving away from this account.

Peace and love,

Allan
