I found a movie that appears to have Alpha Phi Omega in it...

The July 1981 National Board meeting includes the following.

"Authorized a release for Warner Brothers use of scenes depicting the
Fraternity's role in supporting Butterfield's Boys Ranch in Marshall,
Missouri. The film is scheduled to be shown on television in January
1982."

Well, the movie did come out. Its called "The Children Nobody Wanted" and
can be found on the internet movie database site (www.imdb.com) . Further
info is available on the Butterfield Youth Services website at
http://www.bys-kids.org/history/01/

BTW, Michelle Pfieffer is in this movie in one of her earliest film roles,
she plays the girlfriend of Tom Butterfield, the founder of the Ranches.

I don't know which chapters helped out. Central Missouri State, Central
Methodist College and Missouri Valley College are all within 40 miles. Of
those, only Central Methodist is currently active.


BTW, thanx to all who commented on the last find like this, Batch 81 was
interesting to discuss, if ultimately incorrect.
