Kappa Founder’s Day
The Augusta Alumni
Chapter of Kappa Alpha Psi
will celebrate its Founder’s
Day May 2 at 4 p.m. at
Tabernacle Baptist Church.
Kappa Alpha Psi Fraternity
was founded at Indiana
University in 1910. Only one of
the charter members is still
surviving today, Byron K.
Armstrong.
One of the reasons tire
fraternity was organized was
Black students at Indiana
University found themselves
being ostracized from other
social and fraternity groups.
Any time you plug in a cord or flip
a switch, you’re buying electricity
to work for you—and your meter
records the exact amount of your
purchase. Naturally, you want to
be sure it's accurate.
Lonnie Sirmans knows it almost
always is. He’s had 25 years’ expe
rience working with meters and
says the chance of one being wrong
is “remote’.’ With the newest models,
it's “practically impossible’.’
That’s because every electric
meter is checked by laboratory
technicians before installation.
Then our skilled metermen make
regular tests to assure continued
accuracy. Studies show that fewer
than 50 (out of more than one mil
lion) of Georgia Power’s meters
might be inaccurate—even those
would vary less than two percent.
Throughout our company, peo
ple like Lonnie Sirmans are work
ing to serve you efficiently and
economically. To help hold down
the increasing costs of producing
your electricity—while making
sure it’s ready and waiting when
you need it.
The fraternal group was
spearhead by Elder Watson
Diggs whom by many is
considered to be the father of
Kappa.
The Augusta Alumni
Chapter was organized May 2,
1952. The original chapter
consisted of the following:
H.R. Scott, David Dupree, E.R.
Drumgold, Walter Blanchard,
and William Warren.
The speaker for the occasion
is Bernard Arnold 111, a
graduate of Morehouse College.
He received his MA Degree
from Atlanta University in
Business Administration. He is
presently employed by Exxon
Company, USA as a Senior
Marketing Assistant.
Arnold is a fully paid life
member of Kappa Alpha Psi
Fraternity and has received the
Southeastern Province
Achievement Award.
Top seniors from each high
school in the CSRA will receive
special recognition. Music will
be tendered by the Lucy C.
Laney High School Choir
under the direction of Mrs.
Brenda Pollard.

command, but the muscle
instead of reacting normally
overreacts and the individual
loses control.
Dr. Marshal] B. Allen Jr.,
professor and chief of
neurosurgery at MCG, says that
in many of these spastic cases,
something may be done to give
the individual more control
over discrete movements and
thereby make them less spastic.
Dr. Allen explains that it has
long been known that electrical
stimuli to the anterior
cerebellum (a particular
portion of the brain) reduce
spastic responses, however, it
was not until 1972 that
electrical current was used in
humans as a means of reducing
or controlling muscular
responses. “Dr. Irving Cooper
of New York was the first to
use this electrical stimulus on a
patient with uncontrollable
seizures.”
