IOWA CITY, Iowa, April 1.-TWO
national officers Of the Phi Beta Delta
Fraternity today threw the weight of
their influence into the inquiry into
fraternity morals at the University of
Iowa. while a New Jersey attorney
threatened legal action unless the
"rights" of his clients are upheld.
The attorney. Joseph Teich of
Passaic, N. j., who said he represented
four members of the fraternity sus-
pended on morals charges, asserted
he was here to "see that justice is
done" He is brother of Leo Teich,
who was among the students suS-
pended after two Iowa City girls testi-
fed in court to alleged immoral rela-
tions with students at the Phi Beta
Delta Fraternity House.
National Officers Arrive.
Erving Kahn. national executive
secretary of the fraternity. and Harold
Behr. Western vice president. were the
national officers who entered the pic
ture. They had appointments with
Dean of Men Robert E. Reinow today.
So did Attorney Teich.
Kahn said, concerning the frater-
nity's disbanding: I'VE are not in
terested in being represented at a
fraternity where such conditions are
permitted to exist
Behr asserted: II do not blame the
university for attempting to deny that
similar practices existed in other fra
ternities on the campus-why should
they admit it?"
Seek to Protect Innocent.
"How can State agents investigate
in one day a situation which has been
going on for 10 years." Behr COM
mented on the investigation by two
State agents sent here by Gov. Clyde
L. Herring. The fraternity previously
charged in a statement the two girls
circulated freely from fraternity to

clared ridiculous
Behr said he was not condoning the
practices with which the fraternity
members were charged. but declared
he and the others would do every
thing in their power to see that lin
nocent members" receive justice.
The State agents report meantime
was in the hands of Gov. Herring.
The Governor said he had not had
