Henry Arthur Callis (January 14, 1887 – November 12, 1974) was a physician and one of the (''commonly referred to as The Seven Jewels'') of Alpha Phi Alpha fraternity at Cornell University in 1906. Callis co-authored the fraternity name with Eugene Jones and became the only Jewel to become General President of the fraternity. Callis assisted in the organization of several chapters, including Theta Chapter (1910) in Chicago and later, Xi Lambda Chapter (1924), also in Chicago. ==Biography== Callis was born in Rochester, New York and attended Cornell University〔(【引用サイトリンク】title= HENRY ARTHUR CALLIS )〕 and Rush Medical College.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title= JEWEL HENRY ARTHUR CALLIS )〕 He became a physician and worked as a medical consultant at the Veterans' Hospital in Tuskegee, Alabama.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title= Alpha Legacy: The Founding Seven Jewels )〕 He was Professor of Medicine at Howard University and a frequent contributor to medical journals. The Eta Tau Lambda chapter of Alpha Phi Alpha created Alpha Phi Alpha Homes Inc. to address housing for low-income families, individuals and senior citizens in Akron, Ohio.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title= Alpha Phi Alpha Homes )〕 In 1971, Alpha Homes received an $11.5 million grant from HUD to begin groundbreaking on Channelwood Village with the Henry Arthur Callis Tower as its centerpiece. Callis died on November 12, 1974 in Washington, D.C.. His death was a milestone for the fraternity as Callis became the last Jewel to enter its Omega Chapter—distinguished to contain the names of deceased fraternity members, and the Alpha Phi Alpha entered a period when it had no living "Jewels".
