Winter Don Lelong and Polly Norton, Co-chairmen of the 20th Winter Carnival The 1951 Middlebury Winter Carnival, Middlebury's 20th, meant months of prep- aration by the Whole student body under the able direction of Don Lelong and Polly Norton, Carnival co-chairmen. Although there was no ice during Carnival until Saturday, prayers for snows were rewarded with excellent skiing conditions at Bread- loaf. Officially beginning with the Women's ski events on Thursday afternoon, Carnival went into the full swing of festivities Thurs- day night with the Coronation of Queen Margy Packard, captain of the women's ski team, and King Tom Jacobs, captain of the men's ski team. Due to the lack of ice the Coronation Was held in Chapel. Later in the evening Jim Van Wart, in- structor in speech and drama, directed the College Players in the hilarious English com- edy, See How They Run.
