Chi Delta Rho Spring Break - 1963
Thanks to Brother Ron Franzen for this great video! Shown are some of our Chi Delta Rho Brothers on Spring Break in Ft. Lauderdale in 1963.
Here is a portion of Ron’s email in which he mentions who is in the movie
Because I’m working with a 66 year old brain, I don’t remember everybody in the movie. However the following brothers make at least brief appearance: Wes Anson, Mitch Covic, Ron Franzen, Terry Harris, Paul Korth, Pat McKeever, Red Moeller, Bill Pfisterer, Ken Westphal and Don Zielke.
We will be posting some higher-resolution screen captures to view, soon! (Brother Bill Hamilton mentioned that he saw Tom Hinz in the movie).

I forgot that Ron had a movie camera along. I went down in a car with Pat McKeever, retired owner of McKeevers True Value Hardware in Eagle River and a Pledge Brother of mine and Ken Westphal retired and now living in Florida. I think we had another guy, or even two in the car with us.
The baby alligator was named Sea Wolf and we purchased him at one of those alligator wrestling shows. He died about a week after we got back to Whitewater and we gave him to the Biology Department. I always imagined him to be floating somewhere in a glass jar filled with formaldehyde.
