There are many people we want to rememberg events we hope to recordg incidents big and small that have meant, and in retrospect, always will mean Middlebury. Middlebury has opened new doors to us in many and varied fields. Few of us have chosen exactly the same ones, or viewed the same vistasybut there are certain things which we remember: people, places, and events which mean Middlebury to all of us . . . things such as: rtllnc: llfrtcermmlmll 82:00 Srt1r1un.gg1lc ins 4. the race for the Calrmlivadl Tropllny nn-Q- ' ' xxx' ' xx wwf? -........f R M ,-My ' M14 'x 4 ,r w . ,x 44 f 1 Y ,119 Q , v ,, f,, 1 ,, 1 ff' S A I' ,w 'rljgfvgwkfww I 1 T MW X .V , we, 'fb' .

That was the cry of our first week at Midd and to help us adjust, the class of 1954 was ushered through a series of talks, teas, introductory lectures and tests. We were given a crowded dance in the South Lounge and we played Rabbit at the Mountain Club outing held behind Forest Hall. The Bat- tells, built in honor of Middlebury's Sesqui- centennial year, were completed just in time to greet the freshmen women. Homecoming Weekend was combined with the Sesquicen- tennial celebration and we marched from Old Chapel to the Field House and listened to Mr. Philip Jessup, Ambassador-at-large, deliver the Sesquicentennial address, The men' were rushed, the women were Hell-Weeked. By the UVM game, we had bc- come thorough-going collegians and Midd's very first baton-twirler was doing honor to our class. Then the big storm-cow and tree re- movals took the place of classes. With the first snow, the Chapel Hill ski school gave eager learners a chance to test their herring-boning. Christmas vacation, exams, completion of Carr Hall, and finally Winter Carnival. There was little snow on campus, but the Snow Bowl was in Fine condition. Then, our first class project, the famous under-the-sea dance, complete with an octo- pus with lighted eyes. Suddenly it was spring in Vermont and WMCRS was allowed back on campus . . . the lucky Battell girls with short wave sets heard our college station. Then Junior Weekend with the Oh-Lympie Games, Dunmore picnics, the Variety Show, and our first, rusty attempts at step-singing- The Storm Song , I-Ii! Middlebury , The Pirate Song . Finally exams and the end of our first year, Some went abroad during the summer of '51, some got their first job, and some were drafted. Slump year dawned, but our class bravely ignored the label. A new Chapel program and Chaplain, not to mention co-ed seating, started sophomore year. The Men's Assembly got a new constitution and a new drinking code. The Park Diner was torn down and built up and Mortar Board started their now famous coffee hours. The Sophomore Hop was given Thanks- giving Eve- Stairway to the Stars, with Ju- lie Camden as Miss Stardust. In February, President Stratton put on his sheet, loaded his briefcase, and flew to Saudi Arabia for Point Four. Carnival with Porter House winning the women's Snow Sculpture Contest, then Con- ference, marked the end of our second Ver- mont Winter. In March, the fraternities insti- tuted Help Week. In April, the second tragedy of our Midd career-the Gifford fire. That Spring, the Yacht Club got a new boat house and Robert Frost gave a reading of some of his poems. Our class held a glorious picnic and baseball game at Dunmore, the first of its kind, to celebrate our Rites of Spring. The relay race was quite an obstacle course. Before we left for our second summer away from Midd, the NVilks estate arrived. We returned junior year to find several addi- tions. ROTC and a psychiatrist were the most startling, but College had also added the little Sunderland Chapel. WRMC had a teletype ma- chine and the campus had a cop. That fall, discrimination in the fraternities was discussed and so was the presidential campaign-with a wealth of survey and polls on opinion. The winter months were marked by the Pencil Sharpener scandal and Strattonas return in time to crown the Carnival royalty. Dr. T. Z. Koo made the Conference of '53 memorable. Two departments-music and drama-com- bined that spring to present Mendelssohn's Elijah Our special weekend for juniors, a true Roman Holiday, was complete with tug- of-war, barbecue, extravaganza Variety Show, and Lester Lanin. The year ended with cere- monies and traditions which let us know we were headed for our Big Year, At last we had arrived-we were the upper of the upper classmen, trying to forget oncom- ing comprehensives. The snack bar was re- vamped and at long last we were to have Thanksgiving dinner at home. Middlebury's Hrst Religious Conference was given in Decem- ber ancl 850,000 was donated to the Hockey Rink fund for artificial ice. We returned from Christmas vacation to find that the college Play House had burned to the ground. The Monday of Carnival dawned midst tor- rents of rain and Tuesday did likewise, but on Wednesday our prayers were answered and snow once more blanketed the campus. Char- lie Spivak played for the Carnival Ball. But what was the most outstanding change in the four years? Perhaps it was the Chapel program. And what had we learned? We'd learned how to give blood without flinching, we'd learned how to see three movies a week as well as do our work, and we'd learned that Mid- dlebury was only the beginning of our educa- tion. if.

This year we had to work to recover from Sophomore Slump -except those l l5 of us who have fall- en by the wayside. We were surprised at the change to sophomore-junior Chapel-seeing all the same faces again for another year, We finally found out that the trailer across from the high school was a French Fry Stand! Three years here, and three victories over UVM, Will we be able to make it four? This is the year for Blue Key and Mortar Board, as well as our last chance to prepare for Campus and KALEID editors, Mountain Club Presi- dent, Carnival Co-Chairmen, and captains of the athletic teams. For those lucky few of us who can keep our grades up there is a chance for Phi liete. We are now only spectators at Freshman- Sophomore Tug-of-War and Hell Week. Some of us are junior Counselors and Proctors. And Junior Weekend this year is the best, since it is our very own. Then in June comes Commencement: Junior Marshals, Daisy Chain and the rest. And next year it will be we who receive our degrees and leave student days at Midd behind us. THE OPHO ORES Extra-curricular activities . . , worldly wis- dom . . . diligent study. . . The Slump . . . this is Sophomore year at Middlebury. No longer green . , . not yet ripe . . . still enthusi- astic . . . and sometimes almost wise!

Q. 3. fx 9 Facmliy President Stratton received his college edu- cation at Dartmouth and Harvard, He was connected with the steel industry for twelve years alter which time he returned to Harvard to teach. His establishment at Middlebury began in 1943 when he became President of the college. Since that time he has done much towards building up the school, adding such buildings as the Student Union, Carr Hall and the Bat- tells. In the scholastic field the most notable achievement has been the establishment of the two graduate schools, one in France and the other in Spain. The addition of the ROTC to the curriculum has also taken place during his ten years as Middlebury's President. During the year 1952-1953 President Strat- ton became Director of Point 4 in Saudi Ara- bia. He chose this country as the one in which he wanted to serve for several reasons: Saudi Arabia is of strategic importance because of its location between the Western world and Rus- sia, and because it is the spiritual home of P R E S I D E N T SAMUEL B. s'rRAT'roN 300,000,000 Moslems. The economic impor- tance ol this country is oil, which is a necessity to a country as mechanized as the United States. There were several things which were desirable for Point 4 to accomplish in a coun- try such as Arabia. A summation of these things could best be expressed as a plan to develop an under-developed country. This would include making the country stable li-' nancially, improving the standard of living, and resisting Communism internally. As Director of Point 4 Stratton had several jobs to accomplish in one year. The principle task was to organize the stall' and get started on its activities. In doing this it was necessary to negotiate agreements which had to be done through interpretorsg and, even more impor- tant, the Arabian fear of Christians had to be overcome. It is hoped that, with his return to Middle- bury, President Stratton will enjoy as success- ful an administration as that prior to his year's leave. E VICE-PRE SIDEN T STEPHEN A. FREEMAN Perhaps the reason one is awed by the many formidable honors and accomplishments of Vice-President Stephen Freeman is his nat- ural, modest, and humble spirit. Dr. Freeman's distinctions are many: he is a Phi Beta Kappa graduate of Harvard University and is Presi- dent of the Beta chapter of this society in Ver- montg he has been professor of French at Mid- dlebury for twenty-eight years, and is now Chairman of the French Department, and of the Division of Foreign Languagesg he is founder and director of the Middlebury Lan- guage Schools in Madrid and Parisg and he has been Acting-President three times during his years here, in 1943 he was appointed Vice- President of the college, Dr, Freeman's spirit came into particular focus during the period of 1952-1953 when, as acting-president in the absence of President Stratton, he effected a harmonious relation- ship between the administration and the stu- dent body through his frequent warm and in- spiring talks in Chapel. The French students especially have many occasions to meet Dr. Freeman through his active enthusiasm for his French classes, the French Club and other Chateau activities. In looking back over his twenty-eight years at Middlebury, Dr. Freeman has been com- pletely convinced that this sort of college, a small, eo-ed, liberal arts school in a country village, is the best possible place for the right sort of education. Dr. Freeman has felt a great privilege and satisfaction to be con- nected with the modern language schools and to watch them grow and contribute all they have toward international understanding. In his address to the student body this fall at the initiation of Phi Beta Kappa, Dr. Free- man said that the college graduate has a re- sponsibility to society, which today needs un- common men,', educated men, who must not lose their intellectual curiosity and spirit. And at Middlebury, Vice-President Freeman stands among us as a beloved personification of this spirit. 'J-' DEAN BOWKER To some students Dean Bowker is known only as a Math Professor. Actually the Dean acts also in two other important capacities-Dean of Faculty and Head Advisor. As Dean of Faculty the Dean conveys all information from the President to the faculty and handles any of the faculty's problems. His position as Head of Advisory Sys- tem is his most time-consuming task. In this capacity he advises all transfer students and is responsible for the proper functioning of the advisory system. After graduating from Tufts College in 1924, Dean llowker joined the Middlebury faculty as a Math instruc- tor. He became head of this department in 1942, and in 1953 was promoted to his present position as Dean of Fac- ulty. DEAN KELLY To Dean Elizabeth Kelly we are deeply appreciative for her sincere interests in our activities, for her indefati- gable efforts in helping us, and for the deep personal in- terest she has taken in each of us. Whether it be individ- ual questions or problems concerning the campus as a whole, she is always ready to do her utmost to aid us in our decisions. Dean Kelly holds an A.B. from Mount Holyoke Col- lege, and has had a great deal of experience in different capacities at various institutions. Dean Kelly, through her awareness of educational trends, is well-qualified for her position as Dean of Women, DEAN LEE When in trouble sec Dean Lee. This is one of the first things the student advisors tell the incoming freshmen men. Experience has taught upper-classmen the value of having someone who will go to bat for a fellow when he's down. A Middlebury graduate, Dean Lee has done much to- ward making Midd a better college. Following a few years as English Professor, he organized and edited the Middle- bury Pressg during the school year 1940-1941, he served on a three-man committee which acted as president of the college while President Moody was in Washington, and in 1945 he became the Dean of Men. Dean Lee is also a noted author. His contributions to periodical literature and his book Father Went to Col- lege are his better known works. 50 of CHARLES P.

Middlebury College suffered a severe loss when Perley Conant Voter, Burr Professor of Chemistry, died suddenly on June 12, 1953, terminating forty- one years of teaching. He came to Middlebury Col- lege following completion of an M.A. degree at Har- vard University to serve as an Instructor in Chemis- try 1912-1913, then as Assistant Professor of Chem- istry 1913-1919, and finally as Professor of Chemis- try 1919-1953. In addition to working on many faculty commit- tees and serving as Chairman of thc Science Division for several years before his death, he was an enthu- siastic hiker, helping to clear trails and to build cab- ins along the Green Mountain section of the Long 'l'rail. He was also one of the most ardent promoters of Middlebury's Winter Carnival, and worked many long hours on the initial competitions at Chipman Hill, preparing for the ski events by such tasks as trucking in and packing snow, setting up telephone lines, and helping run off the meet itself. His kindly nature, keen judgment and extreme interest in his department and his college earned for him the frank respect and sincere friendship of all his associates. IN MEMORIAM His primary devotion was centered on the Chem- istry Department. 'l'he building itself was erected under his watchful eyes, and his persistent dream was a new building, with modern lighting, convenient ar- rangement, and adequate ventilation. Through his untiring leadership, the Chemistry, Department of Middlebury College has gained national recognition. Perhaps even beyond the department itself, his true interest was found with his students. He guided them with a gentle hand and taught them with sym- pathetic encouragement. His time was always avail- able for help and discussion. His gentlemanly man- ner and his store of knowledge gained student respect and admiration. However, the sincere love of all his students was .established in his unlimited patience, alert understanding and helpful guidance. We, the students and faculty of Middlebury Col- lege, shall never forget our beloved teacher and friend. His memory will always serve to strengthen our search for the good and our achievement of the best. PERLEY CONANT VOTER DLAN LLL S Ol FILE K.

This chaos was lessened some- what by Sunday evening when the newly arrived freshmen received some words of wisdom from Proctors, Iunior Counselors, and Blue Key men. The frosh got their first look at Middlebury exams on Monday when they were subjected to a battery of placement tests. Conferences with stu- dent and faculty advisors, followed by further orientation at a Convocation in Mead Chapel also highlighted Mon- dayis activities. An all-day outing at Breadloaf on Tuesday, and President Strattonis reception on Wednesday preceded the beginning of classes on Thursday. On Saturday night, a Midd-Night Show featuring skits from the 1953 Variety Show and a concert of songs by the Senior women, followed by a get- acquainted dance, provided a Fitting climax to a grand and packed-full orientation week. 1. ,f' Aftvrnoon tc-a---'Kc-n m Q QU?

The three men in- vited to speak at the conference were Dr. Will Herberg, Jewish theologian, the Rev- erend John K. Daly, Counselor to Catho- lic students at Columbia University, and Dr. William A. Spurrier, Chaplain and As- sociate Professor of Religion at Wesleyan University, The program was sponsored by the student body in general, and par- ticularly by the members of the Newman Club and the Christian Association. In- cluded were lectures given by the men in several class periods, the major addresses in Chapel, and informal discussions fol- lowing the talks. Dr. Herberg opened the conference with a talk on the anxieties of man and the objects of man's faith. The Reverend Daly gave a package description of the Cath- olic Church and a contrast between leisure and work. Dr. Spurrier spoke on the na- ture of man and his sin, and the relevance of Jesus Christ today. The student body showed its recep- tiveness and enthusiasm by attending the talks in large numbers, and gathering in capacity numbers in the Student Union lounge for the informal discussions after- wards. Judie Mitchell and Walter Beevers, co-chairmen of the program, their com- mittees, and Chaplain Scott all did a great deal of work to bring this long-dreamed- of conference to Middlebury, and gave further proof that on a voluntary basis the Middlebury students are ready and anx- ious to enter into a religious program.

The grand weekend began Thursday afternoon with a nip-and-tuck basketball game be- tween Middlebury and Wesleyan, the Panthers com- ing off with the winning point in the last 24 sec- onds of the game, 61 to 60. While the game was be- ing played, several judges rushed from dorm to fra- ternity house to catch a glimpse of the snow sculp- tures before the rain slushed them out of sight. 'l'he award-winning symbols pf the Middlebury Carnival spirit were created by Battell North and the PK'l' fraternity. Thursday night Middlebury students and imports were captivated by the charm and sarcasm of Kaufmann 8L Hart The Man Who Came to Din- ner. Each performer, but particularly Clark Me- Cutcheon, contributed a near-professional touch to the over-all success of the play. With the weather still not cold enough Friday after- noon for ice in the Field House, the No-Snow Com- mittee presented a light-hearted variety show, mc-eecl by Al Could and Dave Corey, and highlighted with performances by Pete Baldwin, Mark Brown, Bob Wiley's Steam Stompers, and Dangerous Dan Bow- man. The formal touch of an otherwise informal weekend came Friday night with the lovely Carnival Ball, where Doug Binning and Monica Dorr were crowned king and queen of the weekend, against a background of silver snowflakes and mood music by thc renowned Charlie Spivak. ' Much planning, hard work, and spirited enthu- siasm gave Middlebury a memorable 1954 Winter Carnival, which was drawn to a close by the Klon- dike Rush, an informal combination of the Barbary Coast Orchestra, Middlebury's Dissipated Eight, the team award to Dartmouth, and the Skimeister awards to Judy Kirby and Les Streeter on Saturday night. Tucked in among our memories of Carnival were the three perfect days of skiing at thc Snow Bowl. RN AL 'I'he crowd witnessed runs by the foremost skiers of the East. 'l'he snow conditions were excellent, spirits were high, and the sense of competitive tenseness filled the air. It was only by a small five-point mar- gin that Dartmouth won the meet, with Middlebury a very close second. But Middlebury had a right to be proud of its team and of its captain, Les Streeter, who coppecl his third skimeister award in as many weeks, and who broke the Snow Bowl reeord for the clownhill run. 'l'he Dartmouth Indians piled up a tremendous lead in the Alpine events, especially the slalom, with Corcoran and 'l'ibbets taking second and third places behind Les Streeter. Watching the finish of the cross country event, everyone realized the terrific stamina required of the skiers who toured the nine-mile eourse. Perhaps the most spectacular event from the spectator's point of view was thc jumping, during which another record-breaking performance took place. John Riisnaes won thc event for New Hamp- shire with a leap of 187 feet. Midd was the runner-up with the strength of Gordie Ulmer, Norm Cum- mings, jack Beattie, and Les Streeter. The Panther team, including also 'l'om Burns, Bob Beattie, Tom Lamson, and Rick Eliot, combined to put Middle- bury out in front of UVM, New Hampshire, Wil- liams, St. Lawrence, Norwich, and R.P.I. Proof that the top skiers at Middlebury are not all men was shown by the Women's Ski 'l'eam. Leading the team was Judy Kirby, who won the downhill, with Lucille Withington and Sally Dickerman plac- ing well, With Jean-Marie MeKenna's first place in the slalom, the total score of Middlebury's team combined to make them the winners for the ninth consecutive year. And so, another Middlebury Winter Carnival came to an end----the product of months of planning. Peggy Brown and Evan Anderson certainly made this Carni- val a memorable one, with its varied and spirited events. 72 Ke w ??4-3 N X - g 1 5 f - - D fv .Q-XS 1 XL 'LIE J MQ: I- EJJL A E5 58 N I lib 5 gut - L? 315 , .fl ,gb KAR A 1,2 i E? -. -.

The original purpose was to attempt an honest evaluation of the chaos created by the second World War. Now, as then, students are keenly aware of the need for further intellec- tual probing of the problems which baffle the nations contesting for power and planning for peace. Middlebury Conferences have always reflected the conditions of the times in their attempt to clarify, positively, the current prob- lems. Key speakers in the past, such as Warren Austin, Dorothy Canhcld Fisher, Charles La- follette, and Winfield Scott, have brought to the campus a vast store of brilliant contribu- tions to promote international understanding. The students have proven by their tremendous response and active participation that Confer- ence weekend will not only be an annual event, but that it will continue to stimulate discussion and reflection on world problems throughout the year. The Eleventh Annual Middlebury College Conference was concerned with the problem of how the peoples outside the Iron Curtain can achieve unity and understanding. All the speakers seemed convinced of thc necessity of unification, if world peace is to be achieved. Not only must the United States and Europe, d'Este, Child, Short, ,Iewett 99 but other parts of the world must also be al- lowed to have a share in the problems and prospects of the future. To cover the world-wide aspects of this problem, representatives from East Africa, China, India, France, and Iraq, as well as from the United States, were invited to speak at the Middlebury Conference. The events included the keynote address by James P. Baxter, Presi- dent of Williams College, panels on the prob- lems of the West and East, an informal discus- sion with all the speakers in the grand salon of the Chateau, and a summary panel discussion, Ably led by moderator George McReynolds, the panelists first presented their separate speeches, then answered as best they could the questions of students, faculty, and fellow panel members. Judging from the enthusiasm of both the students and the faculty, this conference was a successful one, and certainly gave everyone concerned an insight into the problems impor- tant to the future welfare of the world, l PROGRAM Friday, March 20, 1953: 7:30-8:15 P.M.

X i feARBv,QxxE, Str-r-r-i-k-c 79 UN COMME CEME T Senior Week, Commencement-the begin- ning was actually with us. The serious advice given by the Honorable Harold R. Medina, commencement speaker, made us realize that, although we sat grave-faced and attentive, our minds were wandering back over the events of the last few days as an undergraduate at Midd. Glorious afternoons at Dunmore . . . the pick-up softball games . . . lying on the beach reminiscing . . . Where have the four years gone? . . , Where will we meet next? Dix, New- port, Quantico or Stowe? No job yet, encour- aging interview, though! Memories of a boat ride . . . well, even though the Ticonderoga was tied to the dock, the spirit was there. Class day . . . the humorous side of commencement . . . we saw ourselves through the years, laughed at our follies and knew we were much wiser now. The Senior Women-Sing and daisy chain on Old Chapel steps went through our minds. We marveled at the faithful alums of '05 and '06 at the barbecue, knowing that in years to come we would be coming back with our fam- ilies and success stories. The tea at the presi- dent's house and the sell-out play . . . Baccalau- reate . . . even the rain could not mar the strains of the anthem, The Heavens are Telling, the choir and the beloved Amen of the benedic- tion. The passing down of canes at the cane cere- mony in the Forest Arcade Sunday evening symbolized the last function of an undergrad . . . now we awaited the official document . . . the coveted degree which only a few years ago seemed impossible. At a signal from the marshals we rose, fol- lowed the academic procession out of the field house into warm spring noon. The smiles and congratulations of parents, professors and friends seemed a symbol of welcome to the new life for which Middlebury had prepared us. Class Day Daisy Chain r -' vs, . .g '1'-Jr! .

'l'his oft-re- peated query, so typical of the Middlebury campus in the fall, is symbolic of the Blue Key orientation process lor freshmen men, In addi- tion to reminding the frosh ol' their lowly posi- tion on campus, the members of Midd's honor society for men acquaint them with the nu- merous college activities and traditions. In conjunction with Mortar Board and the honor societies of U.V.M., Blue Key added to the success of U.V.M. weekend this year by sponsoring the .lack Teagarden Dixieland band in a jazz session following the football game, Blue Key members welcome visiting athletic teams and provide deserving athletes with let- ter sweaters throughout the year. In the spring, the society presents a one hundred dollar scholarship to an upperclassman, and also awards the Blue Key Cup to an outstanding freshman man. Its most solemn and impressive ceremony is tapping for new members, who are selected on the basis ol' leadership, manhood, and sports- inanship. Each spring a maximum ol' five sophomores, fifteen juniors, and five seniors are tapped for membership into Middlehury's highest honor society. Athlete, actor, class leader, or student . . . the Blue Key man repre- sents the best that Middlebury has to offer. MEMBERS George C. Limbaeh Richard Makin F. Patrick McKegney Arthur C.

The Assembly, captained by jim Hunt, con- ducts all elections for class officers and elects the members of the Judiciary Council. It must approve the character of any new organization being formed on the men's campus. The As- sembly's power is only recomrnendatory, and the administration has final authority over its decisions, In the past, however, there has been close cooperation between these two groups, and the Assembly has taken over several fune- tions previously handled by the administration. This year the Assembly conducted a pro- gram designed to solve pertinent college prob- lems. Early in the year, for example, it created committees to promote co-educational student government, to revamp the by-laws ofthe As- sembly, and to take over the problem of regu- lating concessions on the men's campus from the administration.

This self-governing system includes members elected by each dormitory, and omcers, who are elected by the majority vote of all women students. Several outstanding projects, under the ca- pable guidance of Lois Robinson, President of Assembly, were undertaken this year. One in particular was the annual Community Chest Drive in November, a cooperative effort of both the Men's and Women's Assemblies. Co-chair- men Karl Limbach and Marian Spaulding challenged Midd with a 952800 goal, S5200 above last year's quota. Money-raising projects at the Community Chest Fair ranged from faculty entertainment to fraternity cake sales, where the boys themselves competed for the title of Best liakerf' Women's Assembly also combined with the Menis Assembly in order to play the roles of foster parents to a young French boy, ,jean Pierre Acher. A Christmas gift and monthly packages of food and clothing were sent throughout the year. ,Iean's letters have been translated and posted as an invitation for everyone to write to their foster son. 88 Serving as an outlet for student opinion and as an organization for considering the primary educational ends of Middlebury College, the Student Educational Policy Committee has a job which affects many and is known by few. The committee consists of four senior men and four senior women, chosen to represent each of the divisions of the curriculum, Representing the Humanities are Maggie Moreau and Julie Hodgesg Natural Sciences, Sue Lackey and Jim Hunt, Languages, Julie Heilborn and Ken Morseg Social Sciences, Nan Wright and Russ Briggs, who is chairman of the Committee. The object of the Student Educational Pol- icy Committee is to improve the general edu- cational program of the college and to pro- mote better relations between the faculty and students. Included in the many questions to be settled were those of student advisors for the freshmen and of a reading period for seniors before their Comprehensive Examinations.

Front: Hunt, Dean Kelley, President Stratton, Dean Lee. The Student Life Committee, originally composed entirely of faculty members, is now a joint committee of both faculty and students. Its purpose is to maintain a relationship be- tween faculty and students in extra-curricular activities. The committee is comprised of Pres- ident Stratton, Dean Kelly and Dean Lee, Undergraduate Association Presidents jim Hunt and Lois Robinson, Women's Under- graduate Association Vice-President, Ann Sin- gleton, Interfraternity Council President, Dick Bourbeau, and Campus Editor, Donald Nason. The Committee's responsibilities are many, including ratification of all constitutions of stu- dent organizations on campus, approval of the social calendar, and formulation of recommen- dations on any social affairs. As coordinator of all social activities, this committee is one of great importance to the Middlebury campus. COMMUNHW'CHEST Micld's Community Chest drive included many of the organizations which gave help to the sick, crippled, needy, and unfortunate. This year, Marion Spaulding and Karl Lim- bach, directors of the drive, came up with a grand total of 552656, contributed by students, faculty, and administration. A large part of this sum was raised at the Community Chest Fair where President Stratton's shoe shining, the BofT the Prof booth, throwing darts at balloons, and Miss Rose Martin's fortune tell- ing drew the crowds and provided entertain- ment for student and prof patrons.

The con- tents include essays and poetry as in past years, and in the new issue the editors have printed a four-page glossy insert of artistic photographs and several line-cut drawings. In its wider scope Frontiers provides an out- let for all student and faculty talent. The selec- tion of material was, indeed, well chosen so that the 1954 issue is of the highest quality and possesses interest for the community as well as for Middlebury students. The stall, together with seven new members, has capably created a magazine which is really full of talent and one that provides an opportunity for one to see his own work in print, ' The change from two issues to one single en- larged issue shows the emphasis on a larger scope and has resulted in the wide appeal and readability of the articles. By including variety in contents, Frontiers presents a magazine rep- resentative ol Middlebury as a liberal arts col- lege.

MP S This w0ck's scoop Rvynolds and Grvy The Campus, weekly news publication of the college, has appropriately derived its name from its significant role, for it is in effect the core of Middlebury life and activities. Not only are its ofhces located in the center of the busy hubbub of campus life, the Student Union, but the avid members of this industrious organiza- tion arc at all times in close contact with the college doings so as to procure the latest news from the scholastic, social, and sports worlds. These students always have the inside scoop on the newest issues and events for their Thursday night readers. Thus again the paper earns its title of Campus by its influential ef- fect in moulding the opinions of these readers. In September the Business Editors and stafl' ambitiously delve into their busiest season, so- liciting subscriptions from alums and parents, settling bills and finances, selling advertise- ments to both local and national concerns, and an endless list of tedious duties. Classes have scarcely begun when the try- out course for incoming freshmen gets under way with its patient training and diligent work for several months ending in a written test on the part of these newcomers. ln late April the top positions on the stall' are selected and the new administration takes over, This year's staff, headed by Donald Na- son, Editor-in-Chief, and his two right-hand men, Maureen Kane and Bill Gray, presented the student body with an exceptionally fine publication each week. A concentrated move for more eight-page editions was instigated to provide for more complete coverage and detail, Feature material also figured largely in this yearis Campus, beginning with an eight-week series on Europe as viewed by the various Back Row: Samson, Davis, Johnson, McFarland, Black, Clark, Noble. Middle Row: Rock, Hunter, Palmer, Boyc Midd students who had either traveled or studied abroad last year. A sequence of arti- cles on the village of Middlebury and its prom- inent figures was run also. This plan was de- signed to strengthen the relations between the village and the college and to acquaint the students with organizations such as the public school system, the Addison Independent, and various industries. The Campus ofhee is always the scene of busy planning and co-operation, On Thursday nights you may find the Business Stall dili- gently wrapping and mailing fresh-oll'-the- press copies to the out-of-town subscribers, then hustling ofl' to deliver the rest to eagerly waiting students and faculty. This atmosphere of hard work and efiicien- cy is prevalent almost any time of day or week, but especially so on Sunday night when you are apt to find the enterprising stafl' intently pen- ning the previews of Carnival or their impres- sions of therlatest lecture, the Editor at work zealously attacking some hot issue in his edito- rial, last minute phone calls to the dorms for pinnings, pauses for a gulp of coffee now and then, typing up last night's sports event, scrib- bling ofl' headlines, and all the while witty talk and comments being tossed back and forth. The appearance is one of complete dis- organization to the viewer. Yet under the sur- face there is a deep feeling of unity, coopera- tion and efficiency among the members. This is the spirit of industry, humor, and unity combined . . . this is the organization blending all organizations , . . this is the nu- cleus of Middlebury College life . . . this is the Campus, Craig, McElwain, Lorch, Gussow, Brand, Watkins, r, McCully, Kane, Nason, Gray, Reynolds, Savoye, Berry, Evans.

A i X ' 97 W0 ' FORUM Have you ever wondered why the social service group of the Women's College should be called the Forum? Actually this group de- veloped from the social service group of the original Forum, which was founded in 1936 for the purpose of discussing international rela- tions.Today, under the leadership of Ginny Rost, the organization serves as a bond linking the town and the college through its friend- ships with the people, its participation in town activities, and its service to the town. The sale of Date Books on campus to defray activity expenses and the profits from the an- nual AMB Dance, Middlebury's eternal Leap Year frolic, and the food sales in the dormito- ries, go toward two 35250 scholarships, desig- nated for Middlebury women. Through its fees-this year from the largest membership in the group's history-the Forum is able to carry on its many services and activities, cen- tering in the Community House located down- town. Each week of the school year, college women direct classes for the town children in arts and crafts projects, members act as assistants tothe regular leaders of the Girl Scout and Brownie troops, and the local 4-H Club, while others conduct classes in ballet and piano. Another activity for the town youngsters is the story and game hour. Not all of the services, however, are directed toward the children of Middlebury, once a week Forum members present entertainment programs for the Chard Villa Old Ladies Home, Several Forum members this year have been tutoring a bed-ridden high school stu- dent. Another project of the Forum is managing the Thrift Shop, which enables town people to buy repaired articles of clothing inexpensive- ly. Articles for sale are collected from the col- lege dormitories, and brought to the Shop by members of the Christian Association, which this year repainted the interior of the Shop. The annual profit from this is given to support a summer playground for Middlebury child- ren. Seasonal activities include a Hallowc'en party for Middlebury youngsters, preparation of Thanksgiving baskets, repairing toys and knitting articles lor the Christmas sale at the Thrift Shop, the Christmas parties for Middle- bury and Ripton children. and the Kiddy Cul- Back Row: Robinson, Folsom, Mosely, Totten, Sinz, Blaha, McMahon, Hunter, Conway, Miles.

The excellent productions of the Players give evidence of this endeavor. al- though the many, hard-working hours behind each performance are often unappreciated. In cooperation with the Music Department, the Players presented in March 1953 the Men- delssohn oratorio, Elijah , a unique perform- ance combining the Middlebury choir, the Vermont State Symphony Orchestra, and the Players, who provided the dramatic setting. The 1953 Spring production was Night Must Fall , a well-received murder mystery, starring Pauline Welch, Lynn Fisher, and Rob- ert Ringer. The performance was so popular that the Players repeated it twice at com- mencement. This past Fall, the Players presented Ten- nesssee Williams' philosophic tragedy, Sum- mer and Smokcn, which won the audience through its thought-provoking theme, the out- standing modernistic set by Mr. Volkert, and the excellent performances of the stars, Bar- bara Fitzgerald and George Tuttle. In December, the directing class of the Drama department presented several student- directed one-act plays, including an original work by Gordon Strother. The Players assisted the students in the production of the plays in make-up, costumes, and construction work. Another original play, 'gThe Golden Window by Allison Phinney, was given in january, star- ring Leila Goodrich and Gerald Gross, with the cooperation of the players. The Carnival production, The Man Who Came to Dinner , by George S. Kaufman and Moss Hart, initiated the festivities of the Carnival weekend. The play, starring Clark MeCutcheon, Leila Goodrich, Peter Baldwin, and Lynn Fisher, was a comedy about the ad- ventures of Sheriden Whitesides which befell him following an unexpected fall in front of a strange house. The Players are most fortunate to have two excellent men, Mr. Eric Volkert and Mr. james Van Wart, as directors of their produc- tions and also designers of the excellent sets for the Playhouse stage. Guiding the work of the Players and assisting in the selection of plays is the Wig and Pen, headed by Barbara Ham- mann, This honorary group is chosen on the basis of points accumulated through ability, interest, and work, Helping hands are contrib- uted by judith Berry, co-chairman of 'con- struction, David Bridges, the stage managerg Meredith Parsons and Mona Myers, hard- workers behind the scenes. Finally, we should be proud of the Players and Wig and Pen as groups interested in doing good theater, different productions, and ex- perimcntal work. Despite the limited facilities under which they operated this year after the playhouse burned to the ground in the Christ- mas Eve fire, the Players consistently pre- sented worthwhile productions.

DANCE CLUB YOUNG REPUBLICANS Strmrling: Walling, Craig, Rolph, VVright, Elliot, Wilkinson. Sitting: Kittel, Preston, Barker, Frese. Among our Midd memories is the Dance Club and its annual spring productions. The Club meets weekly to exercise and do cho- reography work under the capable leadership of Paula Boesch. The Dance Group's select members arrange the dances to be given at the Christmas and Spring productions and teach them to the entire Dance Club. In order to be eligible for the Dance Group, each of the six members had to do the choreography of an original dance and present it to the Club. In addition to its Midd performances, the Dance Club gave a production in Brandon this year, and also arranged an introductory pro- gram for the freshmen in the fall. A troupe of modern dancers, directed by Barbara Mettler, visited Midd from New Hampshire, and gave an excellent performance as well as several helpful lessons to the Club. Sir, is the Eisenhower Administration effi- cient? Should the United States give India fi- nancial aid? What are the prospects of a global war? What is the significance of the Big Four parleys? These questions and many others are discussed by the members of the Young Republican Club. These amateur poli- ticians sponsor speakers, debates, and discus- sions which aid them to better understand pol- itics and this nation's policies. Highlighting this year's work, the New Eng- land Council of Young Republicans was at- tended by many of the Clubls members who received many ideas for promoting politics at Middlebury. Another outstanding function was the Young Republican Convention at Har- vard University. Contrary to popular belief, the Young Re- publican Club has no political affiliation. The members try to look at politics with an impar- tial view and then judge for themselves the best policies. With this idea in mind, Norman Kittel, president of the Club, and the rest of the executive board plan the year's program. The bright spot on your dial--750 WRMC The time now, 7:15 AM. These words should be familiar to all Early Birds who are up at this time of the morning. You can hear them on the Middlebury College Radio Station which was founded six years ago in a chicken coop. The station has successfully withstood complaints of too much reception at Lake Dunmore and too little reception in the men,s dorms. In addition to its actual opera- tion, the students build and maintain all the necessary equipment. On WRMC you can hear classical music chosen from the required listening list for Music Survey, designed to aid those taking the course fof course anyone can listen, toolj. popular records from their collection of more than 2,000 discs, and news direct from the United Press teletype machine. Most of the home and away sports events are also broad- cast, thanks to many new advertisers. The station is affiliated with IBS, the Inter- collegiate Broadcasting System, and hopes to continue its rapid advancement in the future as it has in the past. After a year's leave of absence, the Alchem-- ist Club has been reorganized with a new out- look as to its purpose on campusfthat of sponsoring speakers who may give to the sci- ence student a view of topics of current inter- est, not usually covered in text books. Realizing that the Middlebury campus had quite a bit to offer, the Alchemists Club had several professors speak. Among these were Dr. Moyer, of the Chemistry Department, who spoke on graduate schools and what each type had to offer, and Dr. Hitchcock of the Bi- ology Department, who told the group of his work with homing pigeons. He included movies filmed here in Middlebury to illustrate his talk. Students who have done research on special topics or have held summer jobs in connection with their major have also contrib- uted to the meetings. The group tries to serve as a nucleus around which may be built an audience for outside speakers in the field of science such as Dean Todd of the Paper Institute who spoke at one of the meetings, An annual award of a blue derby is made to the science student who makes the biggest faux pas in lab. The year is closed by a picnic. Charles Hart is President and Priscilla Kel- ley serves as Secretary-Treasurer, with Phyllis Mercaldi as Faculty Adviser. The club is open to chemistry grad students, science ma- jors in all fields, and any others who have an interest in science. Y W R, . N .X , . N R X f 1 f I h - . X 1 .

Nancy Wilson and Natalie Challin led the Club through a busy season marked by large-scale activity. The December party was sparked by the Spanish version ol' Christmas festivities, complete with native dances, songs, and games. A representative group from the Club traveled to Dartmouth for a showing of an excellent Spanish movie. The spring program was highlighted by the Spanish play, presented in conjunction with the Dartmouth Spanish Club. The production, which was given both at Middlebury and at Dartmouth, drew large audiences from the student body. The Spanish Club meetings were spiced by the occasional visits of guest speakers who provided added interest and en- joyment, Dancing, singing, and playing games in the Spainsh vein added sparkle to their get- togethers. The annual May banquet at Dog Team brought down the curtain on one ol' the busiest seasons in the history of the Mid- dlebury Spanish Club. RUSSIAN CLUB Cala parties in the true Russian vein, native singing and folk dancing, and Russian movies helped to make this year a bright one for the Russian Club. Under the capable leadership of President .lulie I-Ieilborn and the ready as- sistance of Mr. Fayer, the faculty advisor, the meetings were planned to acquaint members with the true Russian way of life. Informal talks by students on various phases ol' Russian life added spice to many meetings. Cuest speakers, such as joel Hayden who spoke about the development of Russian folk music, provided additional interest and educational value for the Russian Club meetings. The schedule of events was completed by costume parties in native garb and with Russian enter- taimncnt. The climax ol' the Russian Club program was the annual weekend in New York. which was both instructive and exciting. The week- end was highlighted by visits to the Russian Tea Room, Russian book shops, lialalaika night clubs, movies, and a Russian Orthodox Church.

Midd football fortunes suffered a sharp reversal the following week. In the season's first home game the team was handed a 13-0 defeat by a bigger and more aggressive Bates eleven. Standout in the loser's cause throughout the game was Dick Makin who continually got ofi' booming punts to keep Middlebury out of severe trouble. Before a large Homecoming Day crowd at Porter Field, the Blue and White dropped a 7-0 heartbreaker to VVilliams. Play see-sawed back and forth throughout with both teams displaying strong defensive ability. Williams' lone tally came in the fourth quarter after an exchange of punts had put the ball on Midd's 39. The game ended with a strong Panther drive grinding to a halt on the opponenifs 5-yard line. Journeying to Medford, Massachusetts, the Panther eleven was buried under a 47-6 onslought by a ram- paging Tufts aggregation. At Hartford, Connecticut, the Middies bowed to a perennnially strong 'Trinity squad to the tune of 33-7. Although the Panthers displayed an improved brand of ball, they found the brilliant running of Trinity's noted backs, Sticka and Blanda, more than they could cope with. The Panthers, minus the services of Captain Smith and Higgins, were able to hold the enemy in check 13-7 in the hrst half. George Limbach galloped 82 yards on a pass interception for the lone Midd tally. Midd continued her losing ways, suffering a 38-27 setback at the hands of the Norwich Cadets. The Pan- thers rnade a gallant effort to pull this one out of the Hre with the score at 32-13 late in the final stanza. Ma- kin passed to Allen to climax a 68-yard march and then flipped to Dennis for a score the next time Midd had the ball, just prior to the game's end. Earlier in the game aerials had accounted for both Midd TD,s with a Tirone-Baxter pass good for the first one and a Makin- Dennis pass providing the other. Running along in low gear for most of the season, the Panthers swung into high gear in a grand finale with traditional rival UVM. On mud-clogged Porter Field in a driving, windy rain, they eked out a 7-O decision over their up-state op- ponents. Their marker came in the first period on a 43-yard Inarch with Makin and Zabriskie grinding out the yardage, the latter bucking over the score. The rest of the game Middlebury staved off all attempts of their embattled rivals to score, keeping the vaunted passing attack of UVM in check. George Limbach, '55, who has been a stalwart performer the past two seasons, was elected to lead next year's team. Prospects would seem fairly bright for the coming years, although the absence of the graduating seniors, Smith, Durkin, Davenport, Taylor, Atwell, Hollister, and' Ashworth will be keenly felt. i THE RECORD Middlebury Wesleyan Middlebury ....

C 0 S S Despite some cramps that nearly stopped him cold in the first month of the season, Captain Win Tremaine came through in brilliant fashion in the annual state meet. His time was a mere C 0 U N T R Y fifty seconds more than the winning time of U.V.M. sophomore ace, Don Grady. Freshman Robin Hagemeycr was a standout during the sca- son and shows great promise for the next three years. Stan Hayward, Captain-elect for next year, was another stalwart performer. The season's record was a mediocre three wins and four losses, with the reverses coming at the hands of such pow- er-laden squads as Amherst, Union, Williams, and U.V.M. Pros- pects are bright for next year, with a host of returning letter- men on hand. S O C C E R- For the first time in the annals of Middlebury athletics the college was represented by an organized soccer team. Brainchild of Captain Frank Punderson and Manager Jim McElwain, the experiment proved a tremendous success in that it aroused con- siderable enthusiasm with a winning record to boot. Under the spirited tutelage of Punderson and Mr. Handy, the team achieved two victories, defeating the Williams freshmen and the University of Massachusetts, while losing an equal number. The future of the sport here seems particularly bright with offi- cial recognition coming from the college and a sizable array of freshman talent having played on this year's squad. 116 7 011 Back Row: Smith, Hawkins, Front Row: Holt, Stewart, Skillin, Hinman, Howard. Middlebury College can be justly proud of its sailing team, which has really shown the Old Midd Spirit in the numerous intercollegiate racing regattas in New England, This year the Yacht Club won the Hewitt Trophy, taken home by Dartmouth last year. The sailors also received invitations to the Angston Trophy in Chicago and the Potomac Frost Bite Regatta. The fall and spring regattas drew about twenty-five New England colleges, with Middlebury competing against such schools as Harvard, M.I.T., Brown, Bowdoin, Tufts and Coast Guard. Enthusiasm for sailing was intensified this year by the addi- tion of three boats to the present fleet of four Inter-Clubs, with hopes for switching to the newer and better in the near future. Just as capable on land as at sea, the club annually sponsors the Commodore's Ball, a formal dance scheduled for Homecom- ing Weekend each fall. Both spring and fall witness Yacht Club picnics held at the clubhouse on Lake Dunmore, with moon- light sailing and plenty of food for all.

Hunnu, Dcnnis, Sykc-s, Anfindsm-n, Hunt, Pc-rkins, Killvvn, Hoops, Coach Lupicn Middlebury's court quintet launched the 1953-1954 cage season with an impressive 54-47 win over Clarkson Tech as Sonny Dennis collected 24 points on the Memorial Fieldhouse court. The Panthers lost a heartbreaker to Dartmouth on their first road game as the Big Green outscored them by a narrow 8-6 margin in an over-time period, after Midd had tied the score at 63-all in the final seconds of the regulation game. Son- ny Dennis tied his own college individual scoring record with 31 points. The Panthers split with Union and Tufts before moving out on their pre-Christmas road trip. The blue and white quintet succeeded in subduing both the University of Massachusetts and AIC before running into formidable opposition and subse- quent defeat at the hands of the Cadets from West Point. The Middlebury quintet then moved into the annual New England Baskeball Tournament at Hanover sporting a 5-2 rec- ord. Meeting the Big Green on the first night of the tourney, the Panthers found the Indians a little too tough and fell by the wayside to the tune of a 63-54 tally. Sparkplugged by Jim Hunt and Sonny Dennis, who scored 17 and 23 points respectively, the Midd-men fought back to topple Amherst by a 69-67 mar- gin, only to drop the last tourney game to Brown 71-59. Sonny Dennis took the tournament high-scoring trophy home with him as he collected a remarkable three-game total of 71 points. Returning from the Christmas holidays for the start of a new year, the Panthers dropped four in a row before they pulled themselves together to knock off St. Lawrence with a 70-68 ver- dict. Sonny Dennis set a new all-time Middlebury single-game scoring record as he tossed in 32 points over the course of the evening. Moving home again, the Lupienmen handed Trinity a 63-.56 decision, while the freshman Charlie Sykes, who played great ball throughout the year, especially on the backboards, col- lected a total of 16 points, The Panthers ran into trouble again and lost four straight games until they eked out a Carnival thriller by beating a scrap- py Wesleyan quintet 61-60. Dennis and Hunt had 21 and 18 tallies respectively for the afternoon. Journeying to RPI the Saturday night of Carnival, the Blue and White found that Jim Hunt's 25 points were not enough as they ended up on the short end of a 68-57 count. The 49-41 upset which Norwich took at the hands of the Panthers brought the season to its climax. Sonny Dennis and Jim Hunt accounted for most of Midd's tallies and succeeded in defeating a previously once-defeated quintet. Some things to remember . . . the never-say-die attitude of a little guard named Johnny Hoops. . . Sonny Dennis' 22.9 points per game average . . . and a 10-13 record that was laudable, 1' considering the injuries and academic trouble incurred by the Panthers, and the number of close games that they dropped during the season, 119 BASKETBALL RECORD Middlebury ..... . . . .... . .57 Clarkson .... .... 4 7 Middlebury . . . . . . .69 Dartmouth .... .... 7 1 Middlebury . . . . . . .53 Union ...... .... 4 6 Middlebury .... .... 4 5 Tufts ....... .... 6 8 Middlebury . . . . . . .52 U. of Mass. . .... 50 Middlebury . . . . . . . 76 AIC ....... .... 6 8 Middlebury . . .... 54 Dartmouth . . . . . . .63 Middlebury ... . . . .69 Amherst .... ..., 6 '7 Middlebury . . . , . .259 Brown ...... .... 7 l Middlebury . . . . . . .45 Williams . . . .... 68 Middlebury . . . . . . .51 UVM ...... .... 6 8 Middlebury . . . . . . .63 St. Michael's .. .... 70 Middlebury . . . . . . . 70 Norwich .... .... 7 5 Middlebury . . . . . . .70 St. Lawrence .... 68 Middlebury ... . . . .63 Trinity ..... .... 5 6 Middlebury . . . . . . .86 St. Michael's .. .... 76 Middlebury . . . . . . .52 Boston U. ....57 Middlebury . . . . . . .45 Amherst .... .... 4 9 Middlebury . . . . . . .59 Hamilton . . . .. . .63 Middlebury . . . . . . .61 Wesleyan . . . . . . .60 Middlebury . . . . . . .57 RPI ....... .... 6 8 Middlebury . . . . . . .49 Norwich .... .-.. 4 1 I I 0 C E Laboring under the usual handicaps of no ice which caused cancellation of practices and several games, Middlebury's skat- ers turned in a most creditable performance this year. As in the past, pre-season practices were helcl at Lake Placid and on the new artificial ice rink at Dartmouth College. Over Christmas vacation two games were played with l3.C. and l3.U. in the Boston Garden, and though both were lost, they gave the team valuable experience. Out of this season emerged a player whose performance was particularly commendable. He was tall and lanky Ron O'Keefe, center on the first line for wings Mac liinning and Pete Cooney. Throughout the season his stick-handling wizardry amazed op- posing players and onlookers. He thrilled many a crowd with his rink-length dashes, sometimes skating his way through the entire opposing team to score a goal. He received able support from linemate Mac liinning, who made up for what he lacked in size with a tremendously aggressive and spirited style of play that made him a continual thorn in the side of the opposite team, The third member of the trio, Pete Cooney, displayed the hustle and head-up hockey that has characterized his play for three years, although he did not figure in the scoring column as often as his linemates. On the backline, rounding out his college career, was Cap- tain liloug liinning, who was selected for last year's All-America Burk Row: Asst. Mgr.

Binning, Decarie. 120 team, The burly defenseman, time after time, sent opposing for- wards sprawling to the ice and broke up play after play. Team- ing up with Don Menard, these two formed a bulwark of strength that was a comfort to freshman goalie Ken Farrar. The latter, fresh from school hockey, adapted himself to the much tougher college game with amazing facility. He won wide ac- claim for his stellar performances in the nets. Behind these men Coach Nelson had Rollie Schopp, Dave Kingman, George Ca- rey, freshman Alex Carley. Bernie liouvier, and Gorclie De- carie, whom he could call on for relieving his starting sextet. During the season Middlebury compiled an outstanding rec- ord on home ice, but ran into considerable difficulty on foreign ice. Decisive losses came at the hands of such perennial power- houses as St. Lawrence and Yale. However, against a heavily- favored RPI sextet Middlebury turned in probably its top per- formance of the year. The Panthers forced the Engineers from Troy, N.Y., to go all-out to eke out a 4-2 victory. Another ex- citing battle was at Hanover, where Middlebury lost a sudden- dcath 3-2 overtime to Dartmouth. The Blue' and White skaters blew a two-goal lead which they were nursing into the middle of the third stanza. A week-long thaw forced cancellation of the return engagement with the Indians at Carnival time, much to the disappointment of the Panthers, who were thirsting for vengeance. It is hoped that by next year there will be, at long last, an artificial ice rink at Middlebury, which could solve numerous problems. Middlebury. . Middlebury Middlebury. .

SKI TROL ,fgb i N ' . iw f 7 I 2' ,gr s f mlm lf lll l 2? Q, .Q l e f Qs : Serving a thankless but most valuable service throughout the winter months is the Middlebury ski patrol, This past year it was under the direction of President John Morgan, who did a fine job organizing its eighteen members into an efficient work- ing group, All members of the patrol have to undergo an inten- sive period of training in first-aid prior to the beginning of the season, and before they can become fully accredited ski patrol- men they must pass a rigorous test requiring a thorough knowl- edge of first-aid in all its phases. Besides patrolling the slopes at the Snow Bowl, with an eye out for possible toboggan cases, the patrol performs numerous other functions. They are responsible for keeping the rope tow- track covered with sufiicient snow when it becomes too deeply rutted and iey, for such conditions cause a large percentage of skiing accidents. Patrol members are also called upon many times throughout the season to assist in removing an injured skier from the slopes, and must be ready to handle all cases, from dis- located hips to broken ankles, and sundry other injuries. The group has a tremendous responsibility in looking out for the welfare of the hordes of students that flock to the mountain day after day. Particularly important is the job of patrolling at Car- nival when the patrol must be on hand for every event of the three-day competitions.

Once again the Middlebury women's ski team proved its dominance over the field by outclassing competitors from Eve other colleges in the Middlebury Carnival meet. Judy Kirby captured first place in the downhill, and Sally Dickerman third to beat out McGill by a slim margin in that event. The follow- ing day, however, the girls left no doubt as to their superiority by sweeping four of the First live places in the slalom with UVM a far-distant second place. This brilliant showing enabled Middlebury to compile a perfect score in the combined down- hill and slalom by capturing the First four places. In the slalom Jean-Marie McKenna, the captain of the team, turned in the best time of the day. Second was Lucille Withington while Jan- ice Bailey of UVM took third place. Fourth and fifth best times were turned in by Sally Dickerman and Judy Kirby with the latter taking top honors in the combined. This year marked Ben Stoltzfus' first season as coach of the girls' team replacing Fred Neuberger. He came up with a team of true championship calibre carrying on in the tradition of the past. In addition to the carnival meet, the women participated in many open races in which they distinguished themselves. At the annual Gibson Trophy race at North Conway, New Hampshire, Judy Kirby and Sally Dickerman placed sixth and seventh respectively against some of the Finest competition the East has to offer. They were selected along with Jean-Marie McKenna to compete in the Ladies International Canadian- U.S. Meet where McKenna took sixth in the downhill while Kirby and Dickerman were fifth and sixth in the slalom. In a meet at Skidmore College a B-team composed of sopho- mores Hauselmann, Hanson and Hoge proved their ability by taking second place. Other squad members who give promise of developing into future stars are freshmen Alita Davis and Mar- tha Davenport. 123 WOMENS SKI TEAM RECORD Skidmore Winter Carnival: Feb- ruary 12-14-, 1954- Giant Slalom: Places 3, 5, 13 Slalom: Places 2, 6, 12, 111' Combined: Places 2, 4, 12 Team Standing: Second Place University of Vermont Ski Meet: February 26, 1954- Slalom: Places 2, 3, 4, 13 Downhill: Places Ll-, 7, 13, 15 Team Standing: First Place Middlebury Winter Carnival: February 18-20, 1954 Downhill: Places 1, 3, 7 Slalom: Places 1, 2, 4, 5 Combined: Places 1, 2, 3, 4 Team Standing: First Place H aim 99 my S A Q..

I2-1 u R MEN'S SKI TEAM Once again Middlebury's skiiers were outdone by their perennial rivals from Hanover, N. H., who bested the Panthers in three successive meets. Considerably weakened by the grad- uation of such key men as Shaw, Goodwin, Ireland and Bur- den, Coach Sheehan was faced by numerous replacement prob- lems, Adding to the-manpower problem was the complete lack of snow until after the Christmas holidays, which ruled out all practice and two early pre-season meets. Heading up the list of returning lettermen was four-event- man Les Streeter, captain of the squad, who proved to be a brilliant and consistent performer throughout the season. Les, who last year was invited to try out for both the Nordic and Alpine FIS squads, decided to cast his lot with the latter. Thus, after a month of intensive training with the top skiers of the country in the West, he returned to Middlebury in top form for the competitive season, The training proved tremendously beneficial to Les, carrying him to three successive skimeister titles. Probably the highlight of the season was his establish- ment of a new record on the college downhill trail at Mid- dlebury Carnival. He blazed down the precipitous Worth Mn. Trail in a fast 1:17.8. I Not far behind Les in individual performance was another junior, Tommy Lamson. He was notably consistent throughout the season in downhill, slalom and cross-country, and could always be relied upon for piling up valuable points. Besides these two men there was a lack of consistent performance which made Midd unable to offset Dartmouth's team, notably in the slalom, Jack Beattie, only a sophomore, was skiing all four events and rapidly developed into a Hrst-class jumper. Tom Burns, making an amazing recovery from a severe auto injury incurred during the fall, flashed into brilliant form in the Alpine events. Like Jack Beattie, Tom is a sophomore and the two of them should provide a potent one-two punch in the two years ahead. They will be taking the place of the graduating seniors Rick Eliot and Gordon Ulmer, the only two men who will be lost to next year's squad, The former has been an out- standing cross-country runner whose services will be sorely missed. Ulmer brought to a climax his college jumping career with a particularly noteworthy record behind him. Meanwhile, freshman Norman Cummings shows promise of developing into one of the Hnest jumpers the school has ever seen. These men all saw regular service through the season. Others to see action were Bob Kloster, Bob Beattie, Win Tremaine, Marcel Cote, and freshman Pete Webber. With so many of the squad returning next year, Bobo Shee- han should have a nucleus around which to build a cham- pionship squad. Given a fair break from the weatherman, Bo- bo's souad should be able to override the team from Hanover and once again regain the uppermost position in collegiate ski- ing. 125 RECORD Hanover Invitation Cross- Country 2nd place in Team Relay behind U.N.H.

K Q4 than Pi' With a true-to-form Vermont Spring, the 1953 Middlebury nine had less than a week of outdoor practice before encounter- ing Champlain in the season's opener, Nevertheless, the Pan- thers, behind the four-hit pitching of Bill Fankhauser, handed the Blue Jays a crushing ll-4 defeat. Captain Pete Marshall sparked the Midd-men at the plate with three hits in four trips including a two-bagger. Hitting the road for the first time, the Panthers found a Wil- liams nine all too eager to capitalize on six Middlebury errors and wound up on the short end of a 12-5 verdict. Moving over to Renssalaer, the Midd-men trounced R.P.I. 9-4. Pete Cooney and Dick Allen each came up with three hits, and Neil Sheehan picked up his first victory of the campaign. On home ground, the Panthers easily defeated Norwich ll-5 in their first state contest of the season, as Bill Fankhauser won his second game of the campaign. Julie Hodges was the hitting star of the day, picking up at double and two singles in four trips to the plate. On May 6, the Panthers found the rival from Burlington a little too powerful and bowed to U.V.M. in a close decision 3-0. In their next outing Coach Sheehan's charges handed the Purple Knights of St. Michael's a resounding I4-2 defeat to run their record in state competition to two wins and four losses. In the second round of state play, Midd lost a heartbreaker to the Norwich Cadets 11-8. Bob Keating shone in the losing cause, collecting two hits, one of them being Midd's lone home run of the season. After dropping another close contest to Union 3-1, the Panthers journeyed to Plattsburg where Neil Sheehan held Champlain to four hits to gain his second victory by a score of 5-1. V When Middlebury lHCt St. Michaels for the second time, two freshmen combined to hand the Blue and White the decision in the best-played game of the year. With two out in the eleventh inning, Bob Keating drove home Middlebury's lone run of the ball game. Chuck Smith held the Purple Knights scoreless over --..::g:: Captain Pete Marshall the eleven-inning route and had a one-hitter for nine innings. 2 Sore arms plagued the Panthers in their last two contests of the season, as they lost 9-1 to St. Lawrence and 5-1 to U.V.M. With the loss to Vermont, Middlebury gave up the state base-f viva ball crown which she had won for seven consecutive years-. Over the route, the Panthers played better ball than their K I season were Julie Hodges with a .323 average and Captain- ,- ,- 6-6 record would indicate.

Norwich Middlebury's track squad opened the 1953 season at Bates College with new enthusiasm and strength, and when the school closed in June they left behind them a fine season, highlighted by the setting of two Middlebury College records. On April 25th the squad faced Bates, Colby and U.V.M. at Lewiston, and against worthy competition managed to place second, Firsts by Myers and West in the dashes, Hart and Nor- ton in the jumping, and Faber in the hammer aided the Midd cause. Hart's high jump of 5' 101530, and Faber's hammer throw of 138' 11 were both meet records. The following week the Panthers rode over Norwich with comparative ease. Midd swept four events by placing West, Myers and Dennis in the 100-yard dash, Ireland, Wollmar, and Gamble in the high hurdles, Hayward, Dodd, and May in the two-mile run, with Hart, Norton and Terhune placing in the broad jump. Other top spots were taken by West in the 220, Dennis in the quarter mile, Limbach in the half, Hart in the high jump, Kloster in the discus, Beers in the javelin, and Faber in the hammer. This meet held two new marks-Hart's high jump of 5' HW set a new school mark, as did Kloster's discus throw of 135' 6M , At Trinity the team found their match, although West brought home two iirsts in the dashes, Hart two Hrsts in the pole vault and high jump, Limbach a first in the half-mile, Hayward a first in the mile, and Dodd a first in the two-mile run, Midd ran second in the Hnal score. At R.P.I, on May 12th the team again came out on top, sparked by West, Dennis, Limbach, Hayward, and Kloster, all placing first in their events. The E,I.C.A.A, meet was held at 13? Nickerson Field on the 16th, and two second places in the dash- es, both by West, brought Middlebury a tie for seventh place, On the 19th Midd faced Union and Williams at Schenectady, but, despite a strong effort, was held to third place. The Cindermen topped the season by capturing the state title at Burlington. Hart matched the state collegiate high jump record at 6' I , and West, Ireland, Kloster, Norton, and Faber also took top honors in their respective events. Altleugh the team lost some valuable men, the '54 cinder season looks bright. The squad will be led by Captain Robert Kloster. The 1953 version of the Middlebury Lacrosse team was by far the best in the four-year history of the sport at Middlebury. The club compiled a season's record of four wins and live losses with victories over Brown, Worcester Tech., the University of Massachusetts, and Champlain. The defeats came at the hands of such well established teams as Union, New Hampshire and Williams, always a powerhouse in New England Lacrosse cir- cles. Several of the games, Amherst and Tufts, for example, were won or lost by one or two goal margins. Captain Bob Kelly and Captain-elect Monk Ogden were high scorers over the nine-game route. Marcey Garcia shone at defense and Hap Freeman stood out in his midfield position. This was the last season for Harold Parker as coach of La-V crosse at Middlebury. Mr. Parker did a fine job in building.La- crosse into one of the more important spring sports. Hopes were running high for the l954 season with the entire first team returning with the exception of Bob Kelly. Duke Nel- son took over the duties of Lacrosse mentor, and the team ran into a much tougher schedule. If last year's team is any indica- tion, however, there is a growing interest in the sport, and there is sure to be plenty of spirit displayed on the Lacrosse Held in the future. -ff CROSS Middlebury Middlebury Middlebury.. 3, Middlebury.. 53 Middlebury Middlebury Middlebury Middlebury RECORD ..l2g Brown.. .. 25 Tufts...

Duke Nelson's version of the 1953 golf team completed a suc- cessful campaign with a 5-2 record. They placed high in the New England Meet as well as a second place in the State Meet at Burlington. Nliddlebury registered victories over Nor- wich, Champlain, Union, Sienna, and Lowell Tech. Perhaps their best meet was their win over Sienna. The latter had defeat- ed R.P.I., one of the two clubs to conquer Midd in dual-meet competition. Duke Nelson, who is coach for the group, should be praised for his fine work. Being a good golfer, he is able to correct, quickly and proficiently, any flaws that arise. With Captain Dick Davenport returning, along with the rest of last year's nucleus, which included Jim Hunt, John and Jim Merwin, and Joel Hufford, Middlcbury's men on the links should have another fine year. 134 xxx XX XX x.-., Middlebury tennis hopes were dealt a severe blow by the loss ol' sophomore ace Doug Burden early in the season, Thrice the weatherman was extremely uncooperative with unseasonably cold snring weather, keeping the Panther squad on the indoor courts ol' the Field House until the middle of May. Neverthe- less, despite these handicaps, Coach Lockwood Merriman was graced with the return of all but Jan Luytjes from the previ- ous year's team, which made for a strong nucleus around which to build a squad. Captained by Bob Dodge, the team engaged in numerous hard-fought contests throughout the season. Con- vincing 6-3 triumphs were turned in over state rivals Cham- plain and UVM. On the debit side of the ledger was a 5-4' loss to a powerful Trinity squad in a long-drawn-out match on the Field House Courts. Bob Black was elected captain of the l954 squad which should be a fairly strong one, bolstered by the addition of four promising recruits, Vern Gray, Don Collier, Ted Patterson, and Fyfe Dollar, all ol whom showed a lot ol' promise in their first year ol' college competition.

One of the principal problems facing the organization today is the rushing situation. Each year plans must be made for carrying out this phase of fraternity life. One ofthe most notable features of the activities of the IFC is the Help Week projects. These are community projects to help the feeling between the college and the town. Projects this year have been such things as painting Porter Hospital, work- ing in the Sheldon Museum, and cleaning up Chipman Hill. Another important activity sponsors the parties given at Christ- mas time for the underprivileged children of the town. Working on solutions to fraternity problems is a large part of the IFC,s activity. A system of ID cards for entrance to frater- nity functions has been an outstanding accomplishment. They have also worked to Find a solution to the chaperon problem. The IFC is composed of a junior and a senior member of each fraternity. It is a member of the National Inter-Fraternity Council. T . Good scholarship, good health and good citizenship are the principal ideals embodied in the creed of the Pan-Hellenic Council, a legislative group designed to create good inter-soror- ity relations and spirit, and to promote cooperation and fulfill- ment of college ideals for student life. The group is composed of two representatives, one junior and one senior, elected from each sorority respectively. Included in this year,s activities was the participation by all sorority members in a Pan-Hellenic serenade in November for the freshmen--whose solemnity was somewhat disturbed by a herd of sheep sounding out Pearsons Hill for a feeding ground-the placement of exam review boxes in the various dormitories, and presentation of the Cider Cession where sororities in general were explained to the new students and questions answered objectively. Every year a scholarship is offered by the Council to a de- serving girl, non-affiliate or sorority woman, who qualifies ac- cording to need, scholastic average and good citizenship. A scholarship cup is also awarded annually to the sorority with the highest total scholastic average. Most important of all it's activities, the Pan-Hellenic Council organizes the sorority rushing program which includes the set- ting of dates for the various parties, and formulating and en- forcing the rushing rules, and editing an informative booklet for the freshmen on various aspects of sororities. 139 ' LPH SI BACK Row : LCl'1Il12Ul, E.

Among those to whom we wish to show our sincere appreciation are: Arne Oker, Director of Advertising for the American Optical Company, who gave a great deal of much-needed advice and practical assistance on the layout of the dummy Peter Gurwit of jahn and Ollier Engraving Co., who passed Hnal judgment on our plans, and in general tried to keep us on the right path. Charlotte Wray and Alex Dimitrash of the Sarony Studio, for prompt and excel- lent attention to our photographic needs. joseph Ledbetter of Benson Printing Co., for his council on printing the book. James Carney of S. K. Smith Company, who made the designing of a cover quite a simple matter. Henry Prickitt for all his financial advice, and aid in keeping the books straight. Gil Meeker for a perfectly great job of photographing Middlebury in all its as- pects. It has been a comforting sight to attend school functions and see Gil with camera in hand. Lanny Osborn and Phil Braun, who rounded out our photography staff and turned in some very fine work. Bernard Cole, John F. Smith, Van Johnson, and Aldo Meruse of the Rutland Herald. for their photographic work, Phyllis Mcrcaldi and Erica Child for their literary contributions. Those who helped our reporters write up their assignments by giving the neces- sary information on school activities and functions. Those in the Snack Bar and Book store who captioned group pictures and an- swered all sorts of questions. And, finally, our roommates and neighbors, who lent a willing hand, and what was more important at times, a sympathetic ear. To all of these and many more, we are deeply grateful. It has been a grand expe- rience for us, working with you. 164 CALEIDO COPE DOROTHY KIMBALL . BARBARA SKILLIN . . . LEIGH UPDIKE ...... MARGARET SPAETH . . SUSAN GLOVER . .. GAIL MOORE ......
