Delta Tau Delta Drops Sophomore
Because of His USA Candidacy
Tom Shepherd, sophomore In po
litical science, was deplcdged from
Delta Tau Delta Tuesday because
he refused to drop his candidacy
for Junior class president on the
United Students association ticket.
Shepherd moved out of the fra
ternity Wednesday and Into Garn
tna hall.
Shepherd said he talked to Sev
ern! members of the house during
and after a chapter meeting Mon
* day night, who intimated he might
'lave to drop his pledge if he con
tinued as a candidate.
"One member told me he was
afraid I couldn't stay In the house
but would see what he could do
about it,'' Shepherd said, "Another
said that they couldn't have USA
pledges in the house that there was
only one alternative for me; cither
give up the USA aspirations or be
depledged."
Bob Shetterly, Delta Tau Delta
fraternity president, said Thurs
day, "I think he's made up a lot of
stories."
"Brought Upon Himself"
"The action was taken by Tom
and was solely brought upon Tom
by huriself," Shetterly said. "He
felt by following the policies of
USA that it would be the right
thing for him. The unanimous vote
of the chapter proved that we can
not have divided loyalty within the
house." (Shepherd said some of the
members did not attend the meet
ing.)
"We felt that his actions were
detrimental both to this house, to
the AGS party and to Tom," he
said.
She) herd said he was told that
he could state his case at lunch
Tuesday but was later informed "it
would’nt be such a good idea what
with outsiders there."
"They told me Monday night
that if I didn't run on the USA
ticket, they might he able to get
me a position on the AGS ticket.”
But, lie a filled, the members who
spoke to him said he should have
told them of his ambitions earlier.
Compared to Herb NHL
Shepherd said they told him the
' house had already "exchanged
their votes with other houses,"
that his running on the USA ticket
I would hurt them with AGS "hkf
Herb Nill had ruined Theta Chi's
chances and Herb Cook, Sigma
Chi's chances, by doing what they
did.” (Nill ran as a non-partisan
candidate for A SIN) president in
1950. Cook was independent candi
date in 1951 for Junior class presi
dent. )
He said they told him USA was
composed of "frustrated fraterni
ties and neurotic sororities who
couldn't gf t anything anywhere
else so they turned to USA."
To Shepherd's statement that he
[ was«told that Bill Frye, running
i for A8UO president in the AGS
j primary, had promised the house
a senatorship if they supported
him, Shetterly replied, "Bill Frye
promised me nothing; no arrange
ments were made."
Frye, in a statement Thursday
night, denied the validity of Shep
herds statement.
‘With All Honesty’
, "With all honesty t cany having
made a single committment in my
campaign. Political mud slinging
is really getting dirty when a per
j son has to fight solnething like
this. My qualifications are a much
more concrete basis for getting
] votes than promises I would not
I make.”
Shetterly and another member
of the house said they might have
been able to help Shepherd if they
had known he was interested. But,
| they added. Shepherd had told
them nothing, Shetterly saying he
had heard of Shepherd's candidacy
