Middlebury College - Kaleidoscope Yearbook (Middlebury, VT)

Text from Pages 1 - 224 of the 1955 volume:

Hdmoniwa living in 4 ducordant world.- 77u'4 i4 one of tine aim of people euerywhene: IT IS a particular aim of Middlebury College, which strives each year to send an educated and well-adjusted group of students into the world of daily living, that they, by their efforts, may change some of the dis- cord back into harmony again. THE 1955 KALEIDOSCOPE strives to convey this thought by the use of a musical theme. The book is divided into three sections which correspond to the three sections used in a symphonic first movement form. These sections are: the Exposition in which the themes are presented; the Development in which they are expanded and embellished; and the Reca- pitulation in which they are recalled for a final time. IN THE KALEIDOSCOPE these three sections contain cor- respondingly: the themes and purposes of Middlebury College for the student; the means for growth and development by the student; and finally, a pictorial and literary collection of memories of the student which have been gathered and stored away during four years at Midd. 77m 1955 KaleidoAcope MQ wt AW. 3? ALMCL Marrer MIDDLEBURY Q COLLEGE Q pleaMntIa; Aitaated in MiddleMI-q, berm on t Dedicated to SAMUEL GUARNACCIA IN a small college such as Middlebury we have the advantage of knowing our professors as something more than men we see in front of a class three hours a week. We know them as teachers, as advisors to student activities and as friends. Samuel Guarnaccia, since he first came to Middlebury in 1940, has come to typify this closeness between students and faculty at Middlebury. Whether teaching Spanish and Italian, coaching the boys on the football field, or advising any one of the activities he has guided in the past, he has shown the same ex- uberant spirit and sincere interest in the students that has made his name a byword for friendliness and concern at Middlebury. His per sonal qualities of independence of mind, courage, and integrity have won our respect; his spontaneity, sense of humor, and quick smile have won our friendship. Writing in the Campus this year, Mr. Guarnaccia said, ciDante asks, iWhat is a man worth unless he is willing to embrace a cause? ,i In his own answer to this, in his years at Middlebury tiSamh has shown his willingness to support the student causeeparticularly this past year in his unfailing support of the efforts to revitalize and unify student government. As thanks for his continued interest and sup- port, the class of 1955 has voted to dedicate this yearbook to Samuel Guarnaccia. Whig on memories of those Monday morning eight dclocks, the Stu U crowd at ten, Klondike Rush, New England boiled dinners, Dunmore, and the filtering soot hovering IDDLEBURY COLLEGE . . . oler the south end of campus. These and many more have made up our daily lives this past year at Midd. Let,st travel backward for a moment and try to cap- ture 1954-55 in retrospect. March is always the longest month of the yearJ regardless of the days. Take for instance March 1954 . . . just what did we do with ourselves be- sides hopefully pray for spring? Well, the Class of 55 really began to feel like seniors when Jane Robinson and Wally Beevers respectively took over the presideneies of the Womenls and Menls Under- graduate Associations. Sue Heyer and Hal Higgins also were elected as Chief Justices by the student body. And then llDon Juan in Hellh was read in Mead Chapel . . . one of the strongest arguments yet for a new playhouse! About this time too, Sonny Dennis was elected one of the top five on the Col- liersl Magazine All New England Team, and the ,54 Midd pucksters had just finished up the hockey season with an outstanding 11-1 win over Hamilton College. And then it was Conference time, with that all inclusive topic: llNational Security and Individual Freedom; An American Conflict? Remember the tense court-room scene between Flanders and Jones? . . . History was made in Middlebury when a town meeting resulted in an aHirmative vote for a State Liquor Store. Since then the group gathers once again at the Rutland Railway depotebut not for the milk train! Middls ski team took the Eastern Intercollegiate Ski Championship for the second straight year. Captain Les Streeter annexed his forth Skimeister title of the season in the nordic events by UNH at Lyndonville. Then the T.C.,s got a ring-side seat at the year,s biggest blaze . . . Middlebury High School was gutted by Harries one memorable March night. The immediate result: 300 school-less students up on the hill marching Munroe-ward with the rest . . . The March winds tool; leave with much of the campus meeting at the Snowbowl for the annual itsugaring-ofTi, . . . Middlebury style. Spring crept in on muddy sneaks and slickers. Skis were towed away for another season and the 01d Dunmore blanket salvaged from the moth balls . . . We left New Englandk April Showers for our first vacation since the Christmas holidaysitiRides wantedt, frantically plastered helter skelter over the Stu U bulletin board. And then that short glorious week . . . over much too soon. The Fort Lauder- dale group arrived back well tanned and freshly stocked with stories of intrigue and adventure. We hardly had time to catch our collective breaths before 1954is Junior Weekend was tjust Around the Cornerh . . . the Variety Show tunes were hummed by many a prof, as well as students, for weeks after the successful show . . . The month of May was a fairly eventful one, particularly with both the Men,s and Womenjs Assemblies investigat- ing the student wage scale at Midd, with the result that campus job-holders were given a boost in salary. We were sorry to see Miss Mary Rosevear, asso- ciate professor of physical education bid farewell to Midd after thirty years of service . . . then Frontiers swept the campus by storm . . . with the exception of one piece of satire, better kept in the portfolio, the issue had many favorable innovations. f Aberna thy Absorption Senator Flanders takes stand on Party and McCarthy a L w, $ in Cm: tryAide Splendor tand we hope to see it againH . . The Midd Mountaineers put the Hnishing touches on their major accomplishmenteVoter White cabin, built on a rocky ledge overlookingr a small pond and the White Mountains beyond. And then it was June and we bid farewell to the Class of 54- and to our own classmates and friends. September Song . . back to old New England in the wake of Carol and Ednaehurrieanes that is! A hurried reunion in Pine Plains to stretch out the summer a bit before another pull at the books. Old friends and new faces to greet and meet . . . a special welcome to those who spent junior year in Europe and congrats to the nineteen who survived the summerTs ROTC training at Fort Bragg a reunion also for the Walla Walla cannery boys-the Westward Ho group on campus. Did you ever get to Frisco? . . Professor Hein- ricks returned after taking part in the Sherwood Eddy Seminar during the summer, travelling through Europe with leading statesmen and educa- tors. Fourteen new faculty members appeared on the Middlebury staH . . and several innovation; on the house mother line. Jean Mac Donald ,55 be- came the tmother of eight, sophomore women in Voter House . Our first introduction to the academic side of life tand there is oneU was the College Book Store. Mr. Clemons, the new manager, installed a wide new variety of things to buy . . from LP records to Life Buoy soap . . . And some- thing else new! Nine and one half miles of pipe strewn around the Held house, promising Midd the surface for a good hockey team, as well as Carnival Ice Show. Homecoming Weekend brought back many a familiar face. Porter Field was packed with alums that memorable Saturday when Midd out-scored Colby 20-18. The Old Chapel Six were kept jump- ing that weekend too . October saw bare knees beneath bermudas for the first time on campus. Mortar Board came forth with a new Dress Code abolishing the necessity for toting a tennis racket or golf club when wending Stu-U-ward . . . This was the month of the Coke Controversy . . TTHep- burn Endorses MUA,, . . . lively discussions and debates over WRMC. Student interest began to awaken among the long slumbering masses; with growing ?acilitieA Max Kaminsky arrived tan hour latei with flan, on the Campus Ltd? Seems like Midd was still on daylight savings or something! Kaminskfs rendition of TTYouTre so Uglyh and hThe Saintsh were well worth the waiting however. Lily DacheTs latest creations for Freshmen wo- men coincidentally appeared en masse with the ar- rival of Hell Week. The hilarious headgear proved distracting to many a male member of the class 0f 58, as well as to CC. and English professors! Dr. John Chalmers 38 returned to campus to deliver the annual memorial Fife lecture . . . EC majors were present in abundance, the subject be- ing TTDead Formulas 0r Living Truths, An Exposi- tion of Keynesian Economics? . . . The best move of the month, however, was when Midd,s Yacht Club journeyed up to Burlington one balmy October Sunday to take part in a sailing meet only to find out that the meet had been held on Saturday! Needless to say, Midd lost the race! November moved in with a sudden Hash of new Pvp-rally ends with Smoke Gets in Your jewelry around the men,s campusel43 fraternity EYeV 35 bonfire dies away- pledges sporting their respective pins . . . Of more widespread interest, however, was the construction of a new cement walk from Gifford steps to Monroe. This improvement assured a smoother path in winter, but there was still the inevitable river to ford at its foot come spring! A series of joint assembly meetings were held throughout the year to discuss the mutual problems TTSurpriseiltis alivcly'i llThose in favor of . . . rising from increased student interest in campus government. Committees were organized to investi- gate the telephone situation . . . coke issue drinking code . . . parkingr regulations . . . social legislation for women . . . and the possibility of a combined student government. This fall saw several senior women demoted to the Middlebury High School and even grammar school! None other than our student teachers, get- ting a little practical experience by sharing their knowledge with the local school Children . . . And no-one can say that Midd students arcnlt aware of current events . . . for no less than a day after Hemmingway received the Nobel Prize of Literae ture, the Am. Lit. majors flocked to celebrate this honor . . . with symbolic sardines and onion sand- wiches . . . candlelight and paper fish for atmos- phere. It was on November 11 that the class of ,55 saw its last football game, tat least as undergradsl. Sonny Dennis was the teamis leading scorer as Midd Charged through the goal eight times against RPI . . . The Soccer team Finished its first season of formal play . . . undefeated. Congrats went to Frank Punderson, who played the dual role of coach and captain. November ended with a bang . . . the ochial opening of deer season. From all reports the only game seen on campus was from the frozen food locker! tReturned of coursel . . . lRound about Things looked glum . . .

Just before Christmas the fourth pomalift in the country was installed at the Snow Bowl. An actual 0Hue and Cryh was raised over the rates . . . for- gotten, however, over the rush of the holidays And then it was really 1955, and the seniors swung with a grateful sigh into thisathe eighth and final semester of academic endeavor. No more shivering hikes through ice, snow, storm, and blizzard t0 the field house for mid-terms. Now it had a new appeal there was something more inspiring to a hike through ice, snow, storm, and blizzard . . . with a pair of ice skates slung over onets shoulder! The new year saw many changes on the women,s campus . . . nightly eleven dclocks forseniors and more late-pers for the underclassmen . . . The . .

The Student Union Road became a One Way street . . . IFC for the first time entered a state political issue over the power to tax fraternities. Midd,s arguments against the proposed House Bill 36 were supported by the State Representatives . . . and the bill was de- feated on February 11. Jack Gould, of radio and television, and editor of the New York Times, and journalist Ralph Ingersoll were among the speakers secured for the 55 ConfereneeellManls Changing Image of Himself?

We hope that the 1955 KALEIDOSCOPE will help to bring back a few of these memories that we all have shared here at Middlebury. llAs students in college your KALEIDOSCOPE is a pictorial and verbal record of college life as you have experienced it. As graduates you will on occasion dust off this volume and with mixed emotions look back at the Middlebury of 1955. Over the years to come, like your predecessors, you will return to Homecomings in October and to Class Reunions in June. By 1965 the KALEIDOSCOPE will have become for you an historical recordia basis for Comparison of the good old days with a new Middlebury and with the llpresent generationl, of Middlebury stu- dents. My wish for your and for our college is that you will keep closely in touch with Middlebury; that you will work for the preservation of our good name and that you will take an important part in fashion- ing the Middlebury of tomorrow. The history of Middlebury College is the history of men and wo- menwof the faculties and of the administrations, of the trustees and the alumni, of generous corpora- tions, foundations and friends. The future of Mid- dlebury likewise will be determined by the loyalty and the devoted interest and generosity of you as individuals. If Middlebury is to serve your succes- sors as well, it will be because of your dedicated in- terest and loyalty? Uice-PreAident $teplwn a4. ?reeman 0A sabbatical leave is an excellent opportunity for a teacher to break loose from a routine and stand off for a look at himself and his work. The tumult of new impressions gained from 58,000 miles of travel around the globe has done this for me The common man around the world wants three thingshpeace with a chance to work, self-deter- mination for himself and his country, and an ed- ucation. The United States has an opportunity for real leadership among nations if it can come to understand the basic needs and desires of the com- mon people in every country, in a spirit of mutual helpfulness. To do this, young Americans must learn to comprehend and appreciate their own and other Civilizations and cultures; must acquire a receptive and sympathetic attitude toward other nations, their problems and their different ways of thinking and doing; must master their own lan- guage and the idiom of at least one other people; must be willing to suspend judgment and profit from the ideas of others. This is a definition of a liberal education, such as Middlebury College is endeavoring to give its students. Thoroughly acquired and accompanied by a spirit of human brotherhood, it can solve the ills of the world? r-BCE 14 146k 144mini4tmtion 20 bean Kowker A tiny room on the fourth Hoor of Old Chapel . . .

Each member directs his own play, faces the problems and triumphs of practical theatre. The geology Class returns from a trip to the marble quarries, carrying their little hammers and samples of metamorphized limestone. In the evening there will be some lectures on the USSR-two students who have just returned from Russia are giving their impressions of the country.

N $32533 V g C12; 8 The Coke Controversy :0 and the women their STUDENT GOVERNMENT Spirited by the enthusiasm and leadership of its president, Wally Beevers, the Menis Assembly was extremely active this year. Besides handling its in- herited tasks, such as supervising Class elections, taking care of disciplinary matters, enforcing the car code through the Judicial Board, and regulating concessions, it has dealt with several new problems and has expanded its functions. During the year a number of new committees were established to deal with such matters as car parking and safety, the food services, and the form- ulation of a new constitution. Efforts were made to improve the telephone system, to have coke ma- chines installed in the dorms, and to establish an academic honor system. Throughout the year it worked in close contact with the Women,s Assembly, holding several joint meetings with it as well as dealingr jointly with spe- cific problems. The basis was laid for the eventual unification of these two bodies. carried on an active year in h l A t C: VQPQT K85 Delightful Dilemma 41 WOMEN'S ASSEMBLY Questionnaires . . . elections . . . eampus-wide arguments . . . all part of the process known as Womenis Undergraduate Assembly, the group which tries to keep social living at Midcl in tune with the needs of the student body. Spearheaded by the leadership of Janie Robinson, the group suc- ceeded in such gTforwarcl loolW legislation as later hours and a new drinking code, both going into effect at second semester. The most important item on the agenda cur- rently is the possible merger with the menis student government. Many hours in the haunts 0f the Trus- teels Room in Old Chapel have proved that CO- operation between the two governments is worth- while. The face lifting in the snaCk-bar, the cam- pus car problem, the telephone shortage . . . all have received joint attention, a step toward destroy- ing the separation of powers which have existed between the two groups up until now . . . Perhaps we could quote: c:Unitecl we stand, divided we fall . . fl Letis get together! gtadent fdacational Policy Committee The Student Educational Policy Committee, composed of eight seniors representing the divisions of the Curriculum; is an organization which reviews Middleburyk educational aims and practices with an eye to improving the program and bettering stu- dent-faeulty relations. Although relatively un- known, the committee deals with academic prob- lems that affect the whole student body. The establishment of an academic honor system designed to eliminate proctoring and place more responsibility directly on the student was the main project of the group this year. Among the several academic questions acted upon were the student advisor system for freshmen and the scheduling of senior eomprehensives. gtadent Iife Committee The Student Life Committee, organized as a cor- relation group between the administration and stu- dents, studies, and discusses pertinent campus prob- lems. Though no power of decision is held by the S,L.C., they are important as a forum of exchange and an aid to closer understanding of campus needs. As in years past, the committee approved the yearis social calendar and ratified any constitution changes. This year many new subjects arose for consideration, the coke-seholarship program, a new social code for women, the car and parking prob- lem, condition of the Snack Bar; telephones and library hours. More functional and effective than ever before, the S.L.C. has served as a Vital link between administration and students in this prog- ressive year at Middlebury. 77w Judicial Council The Men,s and Womenis Judiciary Councils are designed to hear the cases concerning both men and women students who have violated certain college regulations, and to decide upon the appropriate disciplinary action. Because the women,s council is in an especially good position to observe the effec- tiveness of the social legislation, it is often able to clarify rules which have proven confusing, to sug- gest changes in existing rules or to act in an advisory capacity to the other branches of the Womenk Stu- dent Government. The men,s council, in particular, deals with the enforcement of dorm regulations, car violations and eases involving falsification of identi- Eeation. G. Limbach, W. Beevers, R. Makin WaqunaIzee A golden toniahawk, symbolizing progress, sig- nifies Waubanakee-a society of highest honor for men, which bestows membership for high standards of character, personality, scholarship, and group activity. Since its founding in 1911, Waubanakee has relinquished such activities as orientating fresh- men and supervising pep rallies to Blue Key, and is today a recognition society for men who display outstanding Characteristics. Although it has no formal meetings, it eo-operates with Mortar Board in sponsoring Student-Faculty teas. Being a self perpetuating organization, its members tap new members in a ceremony late in May; although the group has a quota of nine, it is seldom filled. Initiated last year were Wally Beevers, George Lim- bach, and Dick Makin. THE JUDICIAL COUNCIL The council is composed of a Chief Justice elected by the undergraduate women, and one representa- tive each from the senior, junior, and sophomore classes; and seven men nominated by the Menis Undergraduate Association, who delegate the posi- tions of chairman, recorder and secretary among themselves. The two councils recommend to Dean Kelly and Dean Lee tin their respective easesi the penalties considered necessary in more serious cases. Due to their small size, both groups are able to meet at short notice, and work together informally and efficiently. J. Reynolds, Murphy, Bartlett, Heyer, Bibby mi Kata Kappa Since the founding of Phi Beta Kappa in 1776; election to the society has come to mean hrecogni- tion of intellectual capacities well used, especially in the acquiring of an education in the liberal arts and sciences? Middlebury standards fulfilled the qualifications for membership, and the Chapter here was constituted in 1868, early in the expansion of Phi Beta Kappa as a national scholastic honorary. Seniors having an average of 89 for six semesters or 87.5 for the full eight semesters are eligible for initiation. These high standards, as well as the rec- ognition of membership in Phi Beta Kappa as a mark of academic distinction, make the key a symbol of distinct honor and achievement among students. !

The quota, though not always filled, is limited to five sophomores, Fifteen juniorsJ and Five seniors, tapped in the late spring on the basis of leadership, sports- manship, and manhood. This organization has as its functions the indoctrination of incoming fresh- men with the customs and traditions of the college, the formation of a welcoming committee for visit- ing athletic teams, the sponsorship of various cam- pus activities, and the promotion of intercollegiate sportsmanship in athletics. Each year the Blue Key awards a trophy to the freshman boy who has done the most to advance the cause of sportsmanship and the Spirit of his Class. ? - A $100 scholarship is also awarded annually to a worthy member of the menTs campus on the basis of need and high academic standing together with the ideals of Blue Key. MORTAR BOARD: tine Aymhl of outdtanding leademltip HMost profitable concession on campus . . fi 45 Acholawlcip 4nd Amlice One of the most important occasions of the year is the spring Chapel ceremony in which several jun- ior women are tapped to membership in Mortar Board. Their selection for the highest honor a woman can achieve at Middlebury is based on their fulfillment of the three national standards of Mor- tar Board, responsible leadership, high scholarship, and discriminating service. Not solely an honorary, every Mortar Board chapter carries out its three ideals in its respective campus activity. Participation in freshman orienta- tion, presentation of a cup to an outstanding sopho- more woman, selection of the new Mortar Board, as well as many less conspicuous projects are worked out in the weekly meetings. An innovation of this yeaHs group has been the establishment of an in- expensive mimeograph service for student organiza- tions. Honor combined with responsibility is the key- note of Morter Board at Middlebury. THE MIDDLEBURY CAMPUS Vol. XLX MIDDLEBURY, VT.

This group of girls, led by Carole Rice, gets together every Wednesday evening to do exercises and work on choreography. Their diligent efforts are largely di- rected toward their Christmas and Spring programs, but the reward of their activities comes not only from these performances, but also in learning new dance methods and in working for the benefit of the club as well. The Dance Group, composed of six students, plans the dances for these performances and teaches them to the rest of the Club. Qualification for mem- bership in this select group is an original dance per- formed before the rest of the Modern Dancers. Under heavy makeeup and light leotards, these enthusiastic dancers lose their self-consciousness as they reveal their intriguing and well-organized dance numbers. 7130422 no Kwinm tike gm guinea i4 the theme dealeloped 6g Front Row: Knecht, tin chairl Hunter and Tuttle, Zornow, Shulman, Bibby, Ward, Squires.

Acting as the governing body of Players, Wig and Pen operates under its own constitution and at pres- ent has a membership of twenty-two students who have accumulated the necessary 150 points and have received the vote of previous members. Anyone may earn points by acting in the productions or work ing on the technical endlstage-managing, con- struction, lighting, properties; costumes, makeup, or publicity. The many activities of the drama department are actually the combined efforts of the Players organ- ization and various interested students, but the 'pur- pose of Wig and Pen is to provide the leadership and technical knowledge required for a polished production. T;Ah, Wildernessw 0n mu. tine gm . Places . Curtain! And suddenly it,s openingr night for another show. The ambitious Players hardly have time to catch their breath and wash OH the makeup and paint from one production before it,s time to start rehearsing a new one. Handi- capped by the KTgreat Ere of 333,,3 which destroyed the college playhouse, the group has had to add a few extra sparks of determination to meet the dif- Eeulties presented by temporary quarters. Never- theless, a backward glance finds the usual bill of successful productions. Spring being a time of experiment, the Players undertook a sample of Middts native talent. Frank Payson, played by Wally Short T54, was just a little cog in the big wheel of the Brownell Publishing Company, but he found that his way of life was what really mattered after all. jerry Doolittle 75 and Lee Goodrich ,56 filled the supporting roles in the premiere of The Golden Windows by Allison Phinncy ,54. This year got underway with the lighter note of Eugene O,NeilPs Ah, Wildemexs! Ellis Baker 555 as young Richard in the throes of teen-age problems struck a nostalgic Chord in the audience concerning those high school days of not so long ago. The tech- nical crew made its first encounter with the reces- ses 0f the McCullough stage and did everything but knock down the walls to make things fit. Then on to the high school where, despite c0- education, Mister Roberts by Thomas Heggen and Joshua Logan reached a very receptive Carnival audience. Phil Derick ,56 as Roberts, along with a ler. Robertsll in rehearsal crew of hearty seamen, a goat, a palm tree, and a much discussed red label, provided plenty of lusty humor, quite in keeping with the weekend spirit. But the annual productions are only one phase of the Players busy schedule. An open-house tthis year a house only in spiritl was Erst on the agenda with a reading and a one-aet to get the freshmen acquainted with the dramatic group. Training classes are also given by members of Wig and Pen for those interested in the technical helds. One-acts again became the center of attention in January when students in the directing Class brought into the limelight the Finished products of the semesterls work. These gave several people a Chance to satisfy that hidden desire to appear before the footlights. In case you,re wondering what goes on during idle moments just drop in before a dance or Con- cert-Leeture series and you,ll no doubt find some poor Player perched on top of a ladder struggling with a spot light and reams of cable. Professor Erie Volkert and Mr. James VanWart, the directors of Middls productions and dramatic activities, managed to catch the spotlight along with Mr. Fred Bowman of the speech department and Lynn Fisher ,55 in a reading of Shawls Don juan in Hell. The performance was given last spring for the benefit of the theatre fund and was repeated at graduation. But dominating the scene has been the continual cry . . . clWe want a theatreW And right now the future looks promising. Since the fire there have been numerous donations of books, costumes, props, and dollars. The goal really came within reach at the Homecoming banquet when Mr. Edwin Sunder- land, a trustee of Middlebury College, generously contributed $116,500. Plans are now under way to replace the old playhouse, and chances are that before too long there will again be a llhomel, for the Players in which they can carry on their efforts to provide the lltopsb in Midd talent and entertain- ment. gtDon Juan in Helllliin Chapel The College Choir 7here'A maAic in the air ., CHOIR: Those long Thursday night: rchvarsals .

Founded in 1936 as an or- ganization to discuss international relations, it now engages in a many-lacetecl program of social serv- ice under the able leadership of President Betty Edwards. Twenty-six committees deep, the wheels of Wo- menls Forum run smoothly from September through June. Monthly board meetings held at the Community House with Miss Margaret Lane, Com- munity House director, coordinate the groupk far- reaching activities. Moppets from Middlebury congregate at the House for weekly classes in arts, crafts, and dancing and for the story and game session, all under the direction of Forum members. Free piano lessons are offered to youngsters 0f the town, this program cul- minating in a recital in the spring. Forum girls also 59 participate in the leadership of the Girl Scout and Brownie troops and the 4-H Club in both Middle- bury and East Middlebury. Prohts from the Forum-sponsored All Men Broke dance and from the sale of sandwiches and dough- nuts in the dorms make possible scholarships which are given each year to worthy Middlebury women. Middlebury date books are also edited, published and sold by Forum members. Bi-weekly sales of repaired Clothes at the Thrift Shop feature wearing apparel at low prices for the townspeople. In addition to Clothes, the special Christmas sale at the Shop offers attractive toys revitalized by Forum workers as well as hand-knit articles. The annual all-Forum spring project last year consisted of canvassing the town for second-hand books to replenish the high school library destroyed by Fire. Other activities include hostess duty at the Community House, Clerical work at the Sheldon Museum, plus weekly trips to entertain the old folk at the Chard Villa home. A spirit of enthusiastic cooperation pervades all the Forum activities, which give 320 Middlebury women a chance to become better acquainted with the people in their college town. Resolved: That the United States should extend diplomatic recognition to the Communist Govern- ment of China. This is the highly controversial topic that the seven varsity debaters undertook this year. Under the excellent coaching of Mr. Frederick Bowman, the club members were able to critically anaylze a problem which is closely related to the world scene today. The two most important tournaments were against UVM, November 19th and 20th, in which our delegates won eleven out of twenty debates, putting Midd in the upper ten per cent of the colleges present, and against Tufts, December 5th and 6th, in which they won six out of ten debates. The conflicting opinions aroused by the choice of this topic for debate placed Midd among those who see that the faith in our American ideals can be strengthened by the exploration of the beliefs of the opposition.

These and other programs fulfill the two-fold purpose of WRMC: to serve the student body and to provide useful training as well as a worthwhile activity for those interested in any of the various aspects of radio and broadcasting. The latter pur- pose is furthered by the opportunity of the student to choose his own field of interest between the an- nouncing or engineering staffs, both of which are under the able guidance of an executive board of experienced radio men and women. In the seven years since it was founded the station has constantly been trying to improve itself. It is hoped that in the future, with the aid of the administration, WRMC will become an even greater asset to Middlebury College.

This is how we spend much of our spare time at Midd, either as a spectator or an active participator. Realizing this, the Athletic Council was formed to supervise this master of our spare time and to discuss the athletic policies of Middlebury College. Football . . . basketball . . . baseball . . . hockey track . . all come under the consideration of Scwhatis what? and cWhy, in the CounciFs meet- ings. Under the Chairmanship of Professor Perkins, the members discuss and legislate on all business which is brought before it mostly consisting of approving the lettermen for each seasonis sports, and confirming the Choices for captains and man- agers for the following yearis teams. Other discussions . . What to do about a sport that no longer receives support from the under- graduates . Should it be dropped? . . . What about the few who are still interested in it? These problems were of particular concern in rela- tion to the Cross Country team, for a definite lack of interest in the sport was evident this year captains to be elected . . . How about dropping the distinction between major and minor sports? Advantages and disadvantages . Best talk of the year: Discussion by Directors of Admissions, Mr. Handy and Mr. Perine, on the policies of the Admissions Office toward athletics and athletes touched many facets of the basic problem of the Councilenamely, how to maintain good sports rec- ords without jeopardizing our scholastic standards. 63 'yt'A :41! in tine game On a crisp fall afternoon you hear their 0battle eries0 from the hockey field or in winter weather from McCullough Gym girls participating in individual or team sports. By promoting good sports- manship and exercise these students, members of the Women,s Athletic Association are striving to fur- ther the purpose of their organization. Headed by a council of ofheers and supervised by Miss Tanner and Miss McGlynn, the W.A.A. establishes and ad- ministers a program of sports in which every girl becomes a member of a team. These teams, or- ganized by volunteer managers, compete with those of other classes as well as those of their own Class. Highlighting each sports season is the selection of an All-Midd team composed of the best team-mem- bers from each class. As one of the most active associations on campus, the W.A.A. engages in play days with other colleges. Following these afternoons of team sports, the girls entertain their new acquaintances at an informal banquet. Other activities of the organization include co-recreational volleyball and badmintion with the fraternities and award banquets such as the one at which the presentation of the 1,000 point Midd blazer is made to the Club,s outstanding member. As Miss Tanner says, the aim of W.A.A. is to en- courage every girl to take part in some sport, striv- ing ultimately for 10070 participation. 050 letis go, group? hWe never mention Aunt Clarah . . . or a lot of other things probably . . . but everybody knows about Skyline, those exclusive Swamp-rooters, that select organization of lobster picnicers at Dunmore and steak dinners at Voter-White . . . those mas- ters of wit and humor, who spend hours in the Mountain Club Office, propping the window open with a porcupine-eaten cane . . . many weighty re- sponsibilities, such as choosing the hRabbit of the Yeaf, and many little things like running Carnival model camp followers and Intrepid Hunters.

Their spirit evidenced itself in numerous inter- collegiate racing regattas around New England this year; among the meets at which they captured top honors were the Quadrangular Meet held at Mid- dlebury and the Northern New England Invitation Regatta, held at Dartmouth. At these meets, the Midd Yachters competed against such schools as MIT, Brown, Tufts, Coast Guard; Lehigh, and Vermont, while the freshmen competed against MIT and Vermont. For the second year in succession the team won the Hewitt Trophy, in addition to the Schell and Fowle Trophies.

Conference gain 3 741?ch chance to Apeale 2nd KeligiouA Conference This year the annual Religion Con- ference, held from December 2nd thru 4th, Chose as its topic NAncient Reli- gion and a Modern World: Are They Compatiblew Dr. Leland Jamison, professor of religion at Macalaster College in St. Paul, Minnesota, represented the Prot- estant viewpoint. He presented the historical memories of the church as a fortress against the modern troubles in todayis world. These past trials he asserted, provide assurance for the present and hope for the future. Rabbi Maurice L. Zigmond,1ecturer in anthropology at Yale University and president of the Eastern New England Conference of Liberal Rabbis, indi- cated to the student body the back- ground of Jewish traditions and cited examples of this tradition in the pre- sent-day world. He discussed the prob- lem of what he termed the tth, in which the base represents the basic Hebrew traditions, and the twin stems symbolize Christianity and modern Judaism. The third speaker was Sir Arnold Lunn, world-famed author and lec- turer, who represented Catholicism. He afhrmed that the church itself is not on trial today; the church has proven its worth through the past nine- teen centuriest Instead the people are 14 14ncient Religion and a modern World.- 14re 7710; Compatible .7 on trial, and they must adjust their ways of life to conform to the requirements of their religion. Following each of the formal lectures in the Chapel, an informal question and discussion period, in which students participated, was held in the Stu- dent Union. Here were discussed such pertinent questions as, ttHow ban we prevent war by follow- ing ancient-day Christian principles? and ttCan Communism and Christianity survive in the same world? Each morning the speakers gave a series of lectures in Classes of the various departments dealing with the subject matter of the courses. This enabled the speaker to branch out into fields other Top Left: Rabbi Zigmond speaks. Top Right: Co-Chairman Jean'Savoye and Mike. Philbin. Bottom Left: Sir Lunn makes his point.

For many months the co-chairmen 0f the pro- gram, Jeanne Savoye and Mike Philbin, worked with Chaplain Charles Scott and 21 large student committee to make the Conference a success. It was planned and speakers selected with the aim of appealing to those students interested in religion from an intellectual standpoint as well as those seek- ing answers for a further application of their faith. All who attended felt the program to be personally helpful in reaching a better understanding to the common aims of the three chief religions in America today.

Carnival, The Most. Culture Coma to Camplw in IZtIc Mutual Conference The topic of the 12th Annual hiiddlebury Con- ferenceettNational Security and Individual Frec- dom: An American Conflict? afforded the expert panel many pertinent issues from which to present their points of View. Dr. Frederick L. Schuman, famed author and professor of government at Williams College, opened the program with the keynote address, ttThe Dilemma of Freedom and SecurityW He warned that America is jeopardized by a Ettyranny of fear and hysteria? Not until this is overcome can America hope to achieve either national security or individual freedom. Saturday morning the first panel presented its viewpoints on the problem ttWhat Degree of Limitation on Group Freedom is Necessary for Na- tional Security? Donald G. Mitchell, Chairman of the board of Sylvania Electric Products; Gus Tyler, political director of the International Ladies Gar- ment WorkerTs Union; Rev. Herman Reissig, Inter- national Relations Secretary of the Council for So- cial Action of Congregational Christian Churches; and James Nevins Hyde, outstanding New York lawyer spoke from their respective viewpoints of management, labor, church, and law. Following this, the panel moderator, Dr. Robert S. Babcock of the University of Vermont led a discussion between the audience and panel. The afternoon session, discussing ttWhat Degree of Limitation on Individual Freedom is Necessary for National Security.pu proved to be a lively pro- gram as the subject turned to McCarthyism. News- papermen and TV cameras were among the huge crowd that attended this third portion of the Con- ference. Fowler J. Harper, professor of law at Yale University; Wilbert Snow, lecturer, poet, and pro- fessor at Wesleyan University; Robert L. Jones, Democratic candidate for the US Senate from Maine; Edward A. O,Neill, City editor of WThe Louisville Timesh; and Ralph E. Flanders, US. Republican Senator from Vermont, composed the paneL Saturday evening, informal discussions gave the students an opportunity to directly question and challenge the views of the speakers on divergent topics. The summary address was given Sunday morn- ing by Dr. Babcock. After a brief resume of each speaker, he concluded with his own Views on the topic, asserting that ttour national security it indi- vidual freedom?

Especially unusual, it seems, was hearing the immortal works of Each, with their baroque character. being played on a guitar. Gary Graftman, young American pianist and favorite pupil of Rudolf Serkin, offered a pro gram of mixed and popular classical music on March 14th, while in April came the traditional Concert of the Vermont Symphony Orchestra. Highlighting the eveningr was the performance of the iiConcerto for Piano and Or- chestra, composed by the guest soloist, Lionel Nowak, who is Composer in Residence at Bennington.

Sparked by sen- iors Higgins, Admirand, Beattie, Benz, Field, and Captain Limbach, Middlebury turned in a 4-2-1 season, upsetting three highly favored opponents over the route. In the seasonls opener at Porter Field, the Pan- thers outgained a powerful Wesleyan eleven, 293 to 219 yards, but wound up on the Short end of a 14-6 count. The loss of Dick Makin early in the game severely crippled the squad for the remainder of the game and the entire season. The lone Middle- bury score came on a thirty-two yard pass play from Dennis to Peterson. On October 2, the Panthers presented a Home- coming crowd of 2400 a thrilling 20-18 Victory over the Colby mules. Sonny Dennis and Roger Tirone shared the spotlight for Middlebury as they accounted for all twenty points between them. Dennis tallied twice, once by scampering sixty yards to payclirt after taking a twenty yard Rausa pass, and once on a forty-seven yard encl sweep. Tirone not only had an eight yard scoring plunge to his credit, but also added the two all-important extra points that put the game on ice. In their first game on foreign soil, the Panthers, sparked by Zip Rausa, romped to a 19-13 upset Victory over Williams. Rausa passed for one Panther touchdown, and plunged for two others, with Dennis and Tirone assisting by turning in fine offen- sive performances. The Blue and White played an excellent defensive game as well, stopping repeated Williams drives deep into Micldlebury territory. Journeying to Maine a week later, the Nelson- men came within one yard of upsetting a favored Bates eleven in a game which ended in a 7-7 dead- lock. Trailing 7-0 at the beginning of the fourth quarter with the ball on the Midd four, Rausa fired a twenty-Five yard aerial to Baxter. Just as he was about to be tackled, Baxter shovellecl the ball off to Dennis who raced all the way to paydirt. Baxter converted to knot the contest, but with less than a minute remaining, a Middlebury drive was halted on the one yard line, after the Panthers had secured a first down and goal to go on the four yard line. Returning home on October 23, the Panthers swamped a hapless RPI team 54-0 with the largest margin of victory turned in by a Middlebury squad since 1928. Coach Duke Nelson used thirty-two men as Middlebury gained a total of 464- yards throughout the game, while holding RPI to a minus eight yards in the second half. Sonny Dennis and Pete Cooper turned in two touchdowns apiece on October 30 to hand the cadets from Norwich 21 39-26 drubbing on the rain swept Porter Field. Roger Tirone, Bob Johnson, and George Limhach also shone in the game which Middlebury broke wide open early in the second half. In the seasorfs finale at Centennial Field, the only bright spot of the clay for Middlebury rooters came early in the second period, as Sonny Dennis took a UVM kickoff and rompecl ninety-two yards to score. The game ended, however, with Middlebury 0n the short end of the 30-6 score, although Higgins, Lim- bach, and Baxter all turned in good defensive per- formances for their last game in a Middlebury uni- form.

HAT may very well turn out to be the hnal season of cross country track at Middlebury was marked by a number of dismal afternoons for Midd partisans. The Panther speedsters managed to capture only one meet over the season to give them a rather unimpressive 1-41 record, despite the number of fine individual performances turned in by several Midd runners. Win Tremaine and Brooks Dodd, the team,s only seniors turned in creditable performances in each meet; and captain Stan Hayward was outstanding on several occasions. The greatest single achieve- ment, however, was Robin Hagemeyerls record breaking 21:13 time over the rugged Williamls course. The Pantherls started off the season on the wrong foot by dropping a dual meet to Amherst 36-23 on the Golf Club course. On October 20 they joure neyecl to Troy, only to be set back by the engineers from RPI by a 40-19 Final tally. Recovering from their initial setbacks, the Pan- ther hill-and-dale speedsters traveled to Northiield and notched their only victory of the season In their first state meet of the year the team managed to pick up a 34-23 triumph over the Norwich cadets. On October 29, the squad dropped a 32-23 decision to a power-laclen Union aggregation in their hnal home meet of the year. Journeying to Burlington for their final state meet, the Midd harriers finished the afternoon on the short end of a 36-20 score. The Panthers closed the season by holding the Ephmen of Williams to a 28-28 tie. Coach Brown attributed the seasonls poor record to the lack of interest in the Fall track sport at Middlebury. Because of this lack of interest he favors discontinuing the sport here and transferring the funds allocated to it to the soccer team, which is fast gaining in popularity on the lVIiclcllebury campus. 1170715 Row: Marehand Ferman, Decker Captain- Coach Pundcrson V Gray, Miner Har- rington.

First seen on the Midd campus in 1952, soccer at Middlebury is primarly the protege of this year1s coach and captain Frank Punderson. The season,s success was largely due to his eFforts, since he was responsible for whipping the forty candidates into the smoothly operating combine which compiled the seasorfs admirable record of four wins and two ties. The club opened the season with a decisive 4-1 triumph over Clarkson Tech. On October 13 they pIayed host to a powerful Union squad, and a spirited partisan crowd saw the Panthers take a commanding 3-0 lead in the First half, but falter in the second half and allow the game to end in a 4-4 deadlock. The Blue and White followed by taking two easy Victories over New England College and Plattsburg State Teachers by two goal margins. The Panthers were held to a 0-0 tie by Albany State Teachers, but C1imaxed the season with 21 Gel triumph over the Dartmouth Frosh.

' :xmkw vw-H; meA i Hoopatm Iiam; waits witli PARKED by the return of lanky Torn Hart, Tony Lupienis cage quintet turned in one of its most impressive seasons of recent years. Paced by Hart, Captain Al iiSonny,, Dennis, and Charlie Sykes, the Panthers fought their way to twelve wins against only eight defeats with two games remain- ing. The Panthers launched the season on the wrong foot by dropping four of their Erst five contests. They did manage to pull out a 73-52 victory over Union, and the heartbreaking pre-Christmas loss to Tufts. 84-83, came only as the result of a Jumbo foul shot with three seconds remaining. At the New England Invitational Tournament at Storrs, Connecticut during Christmas vacation, the Blue and White ran head on into an undefeated Amherst quintet in the first game, and when the smoke cleared Middlebury emerged with the 71-68 victory. Tom Hart had twenty-eight points for his cveningis work, enough to tie the tourney record. Middlebury threw a scare into the Dartmouth Indians, eventually tourney champs, before slipping behind by a narrow 73-69 margin. The following day the Panthers dropped another Close contest, 74- 69 to Brown. Sonny Dennis copped the tourney scoring honors with a total of 6fty-nine points and received a berth on the all-toumey team. Returning home on January 7, the Lupienmen had 21 none too impressive 2-6 record despite hav- ing displayed a brilliant brand of basketball in sev- eral losing contests. They proceeded to remedy the situation by winning ten of their next twelve con- tests commencing with a 57-54- Victory over Hamil- ton. They continued with Victories in two state 97 liigln $60194 522 Visnofts Front Row: Anfindsen, Sykes, Dennis, Hart, Evans.

After dropping a heartbreaker to St. Mi- ehaels 70-69, the Blue and White rebounded to trounce Wesleyan 89-67 on their home court. Second semester the Lupienmen opened the term by dropping Trinity 75-67. Tom Hartj Sonny Dennis, and Cy Anfindsen combined to spark an 87-73 revenge win over St. Michaels. The club journeyed to St. Lawrence on February 9 and broke the century mark with a 103-93 overtime triumph over the Larries. The following evening they laced into another Tri-state rival and handed Clarkson a 90-76 drub- bing. At Carnival the Panthers staved OH a last minute rally by the Engineers from RPI and notched a 71- 64 victory. Journeying to Norwich the Blue and White dropped another close decision to the state champion cadets, 53-50. Over the course of the season, Middleburyls three big men, Sykes, Dennis, and Hart consistently reaped the scoring honors, but the quintet was well balanced by the brilliant Floor work and occasional scoring sprees of four scrappy guards, John Hoopsj Cy Anfindsen, Jim Wagner, and Scott Greer. The Panthers will lose only the services of their captain, Sonny Dennis, via graduation, and the squad looks forward to even a greater season next year.

Much of the credit goes to Coach llDukell Nelson, who, con- stantly faced with the loss of one or more regulars, juggled his lines skillfully to come up with con- sistently winning combinations. Hampered by delayed installation of the new rink, Middlebury dropped their seasonls opener to Tufts 5-1, with captain Ron OlKeefe slapping in Middls only goal. On the following evening OlKeefe taught the boys from BU how the game is played by scoring all five of Middleburyls goals in the 5-4 overtime triumph. Returning home, the Nelsonmen christened their new rink with a 5-3 victory over the Montreal AAA, 21 club composed of former college stars. Sophomore Hugh Marlow scored the first goal on the new ice, and Dave Kunzmann hit for the hat trick. The Pantherls did not fare as well against a hard skating Clarkson club, and dropped an 8-1 decision. journeying to Dartmouth the Blue and White bounced back to take a 4-3 overtime victory hitting for the clinching goal. Goalie Ken Farrar shut out the Ephmen as OiKeefe hit for another hat trick to give Middle- bury a 60 victory over Williams. Two easy vic- tories over Norwich and Hamilton followed before the Panthers fell to a powerful St. Lawrence team 10-1. Mae Binning turned the hat trick as Middlebury took an easy 5-3 Victory from Amherst. On February :3 the packed house at the Memorial Field House O'Keefe, 94mm and ginning 24mm; Star Playew was not disappointed as they saw the Panthers take a 7-6 overtime Victory from RPI for their first win over a tri-state opponent in four years. Mae Binning scored the winning goal on a spectacular assist from Ron OiKeefe. A great deal of credit for the win also goes to goalie Ken Farrel; who played the entire Contest, making several impossible saves, despite a leg injury sustained early in the First period. Two days later the Midd men took on powerful Clarkson and held them to a 2-2 tie going into the Final period before dropping a 4-2 decision. Buff Bermas, hlling in for Ken Farrar in the nets, turned in a brilliant performance as he was credited with Hfty-three saves. The Panthers dropped a 5-1 deci- sion to St. Lawrence before handing Army a 5-4 de- feat. The Blue and White had a little trouble with AIC until the third period when OiKeefe pulled the hat trick, Climaxing with one of the most thrill- ing solos seen on Middlebury ice. In the annual Carnival game with Dartmouth, the Panthers lost a heartbreaking 4-3 overtime eon- test as a bit of rough ice caused a blue line shot to bounce over Buff Bermast stick and into the net. eecord Middlebury ........ 1; Tufts ............... 5 NIiddlebury. . . . . . . .5; BU ................. 4 Middlebury. . . . . . . .5; Montreal AAA ........ 2 Middlebury ........ 1; Clarkson Iinddlebury ........ 4-: Middlebury ........ 6: Williams Middlebury. . . . . . . .5; Norwich .............

Once again four event man and captain Les Streeter paced the Panther squad as he took ski- meister honors at both the Norwich and Middlebury Carnivals and was the first American to place in the Orvis Cup race. The team was also aided by outstanding per- formances by another four event man, Tommy Lamson. Tom Burns and Bob and Jack Beattie all performed well in their events, and two sophomores, Pete Webber and Norm Cummings developed into major factors in Middlebury,s success The outstanding prowess of the members of the team was demonstrated by the fact that Norm Cummings was one of the two eastern skiers selected to attend the Olympic jumping tryouts, and Streeter, Lamson, Burns, Webber, and the Beatties were all chosen for the Alpine tryouts. 7 HE eight women on the Middlebury Ski Team find life during the skiing season to be excep- tionally busy . . . the exhausting work of practice two or three times per week . . . repeated runs up and down Ross Trail with Captains Judy Kirby and Sally Dickerman at the head . . . here at Midcl half the week, then off racing the last four days.

In February at the annual Gibson Memorial Trophy race, in competition with some of the top women skiers 0f the world, Withington and Dickerman placed fourth and seventh respectively with Kirby not far behind. For the tenth consecutive year the women skiers swept off with top Carnival honors, Kirby winning the downhill and Withington taking the slalom to give lMidd a grand total of 289.39 points. Other team members who showed great promise for the future are J. Hauselmann, M. Hanson, I Hoge and A. Davis.

NDER the direction of president Fred Par- sons the Middlebury Ski Patrol entered a period of transition as the ski area they serve was converted from a small amateur area to a large commercial development with its lift capacity and skiing area nearly tripled. The patrol coordinated its activities closely with the National Ski Patrol section leader in Burlington and with Mount Mansfield Patrol. From this asso- ciation the patrol benefited greatly in terms of tech- nique and equipment. The patrol began work in early October with about forty tryouts instead of the usual fifteen. Classes in Hrst aid were given during the fall, and the Mount Mansfield Patrol brought an ambulance full of equipment to the Bowl for practical demon- strations. The patrol was greatly aided by the return of national patrolman Dike Stimson to college. During the year Fred Parsons and Vern Gray, patrol mem- bers, also had the distinction of being appointed to the National Ski Patrol. The large number of tryouts has made it difflcult for the leadership to coordinate the work of the patrol, but the general concensus is that a marvel- ous service for the college and the Snow Bowl has been rendered. 741w Me Out to the Kali game Record Middlebury ........ 5; Middlebury ........ 5; Middlebury ........

O 106 UFFERING from another typical Vermont spring, and from the lack of adequate indoor practice facilities, the 1954 Middlebury baseball team had a rough time getting their feet under them, and finished the short season with a record of five wins and eight losses. The Panther Nine. opened the season against AIC in Springheld and had the game all wrapped up until the last of the ninth when AIC pushed across three big runs to take the decision, 6-5. Bob Keat- ing was the big man at the plate for the Blue and White with two hits in three trips. Middlebury opened their home season on April 28, and dropped an 11-5 slugfest to the Ephmen from Williams despite the power-hitting of Julie Hodges and Bob Ducharme. Wesleyan managed to take the Panthers into camp by a 5-0 score two days later. The Sheehanmen pulled themselves up by their bootstraps, however, and handed Norwich 21 7-2 trouncing in their first state contest of the season. Chuck Smith tossed a four hitter at the Cadets and Keating and Pete Cooney each had two hits in three efforts to lead the Panthers at the plate. Middlebury got its second Victory of the campaign by dropping St. MichaePs 7-5 as Pete Read picked up his first win. Jim Wagner had a home run and Cy Anhndsen picked up three singles as once more Middlebury displayed its offensive power. The Middmen ran into trouble again in their next two contests, dropping 8-5 and 5-0 decisions to NIassachusetts and Vermont respectively, before they pulled out another slugfest with union, 12-10. The game saw extra-base hits galore as Dick Makin knocked out a Circuit Clout and Jim Wagner picked up a double and a triple in four trips. The Panthers managed to get only three hits against Clarkson and lost a twelve inning heart- breaker, 4-3, after leading 3-1 going into the last of the ninth. The hitting famine continued into the next two games, allowing St. Lawrence and U.V.M. to pick up 10-1 and 7-0' victories over the Blue and White. The Panthers finished the season on a strong note, however, as Chuck Smith led them to a 7-5 Victory over Norwich, and Dick McDonald shut out RPI 3-0 on three hits. Over the season, underclassmen Bob Keating, Jim WagnerJ and Roger Tirone turned in a num- ber of creditable performances, along with a num- ber of their teammates, which leads Coach Bobo Sheehan to look for bigger and better things in 355.

There were a number of outstanding individual performances during the season, but Sonny Dennis consistently had two, three, and four firsts in every meet. Captain Robin Kloster performed beautiful- ly throughout the season, breaking his own school discus record on one occasion. Pete Redman was the only Panther to place in the New England meet, taking a fourth in the mile run. At the state meet. the squad presented Coach Brown with a Paul Revere Bowl in recognition of Holmes crosses the line his thirty-six years of faithful service to Middlebury. tacroAAe I444 141144th 5th geaAon N his hrst season as lacrosse mentor, Coach Duke Nelson led the lMiddlebury stickmen to t e best season in the short history of the sport at Middlebury. After dropping their hrst three formal games of the campaign, the Panthers managed to pull themselves up by their bootstraps and compile an over-all 4-5 record, which is quite impressive considering the caliber of their opposition. In addition to their regular seasonis play, the Nelsonrnen also had a decisive 7-3 win over the Engineers from MIT in a pre-season practice con- test. The early season Panther nemesis, lack of defen- sive experience, corrected itself as the season wore on, and the Blue and White had victories over such teams as New England College and Massachusetts in later season play. Captain Monk Ogden played excellent lacrosse throughout the season, ably assisted by veterans Bob Killeen, Gallagher, and Sullivan. Fine year long performances by two freshmen; Ken Farrar and Mike Wilson seemed to outline a bright future for the Spring stick sport at Middle- bury. 109 Front Row: Davidson, Heminway, Black, Patterson, Breed.

HE 1954 edition of the Middlebury tennis 7team provided the first signs of a gTnew looki, in tennis at the college on the hill. The eleven match schedule included contests with several of the tennis powers of New England, and the clay court club turned in a creditable 8-3 record for the season. All of Midd,s defeats came early in the campaign, and as the season progressed the netters became almost unbeatable. The Panther defeats came at the hands of Wil- liams, one of the best teams in the East, Wesleyan, and 'Trinity, the latter two by only one point margins. Among their triumphs the Merrimanmen boasted 8-1 lacings over Saint Lawrence, RPI; and Union. The Panthers retained their state title; going undefeated in state competition and claiming 8-1 and 6-3 Victories over gTour brothers by the lake? Coach Lockwood Merriman worked up a well balanced team with his players often changing posi- tions from match to match. Although Don Collier held down the number one slot for most of the sea- son, captain Bob Black, Spike Heminway, and Bill Breed turned in brilliant individual performances on several occasions. The squad lost only its captain; Bob Black, Via graduation; and Don Collier; to the service; and a number of freshmen show consider- able promise. 110 7enniA Record Middlebury ........ 3; Middlebury ........ 8; Middlebury ........ 4; Middlebury ........ 4- ; Middlebury ........ 8; Middlebury ........ 8; Middlebury ........ 8; Middlebury ........ 6; Middlebury ........ 8; Middlebury ........ 7; 'Middlebury ........ 8; Williams ............. 6 St. Miehaer .......... 1 Wesleyan ............. 5 Trinity ............... 5 St. Lawrence ......... 1 RPI ................. 1 St. Michaelis .......... 1 Vermont ............. 3 Clarkson ............. 1 Union ............... 2 Vermont ............. 1 Front Row: Hallenbeck, Benes, Ernst, Bagnardi, Captain Tolley.

The Tanther linksters also copped the state meet to add another spring sport state title to the Middlebury collection. The Midd- men hnished second ahead of Sienna in a triangular meet at Dartmouth. The Club was sparked by its captain, Dick Daven- port, who consistently registered match-winning low scores. Jim Hunt, the teast only other senior, was another valuable asset to the squad. The team lost two valuable lettermen when Jim and John Mcrwin were called into the service early in the second se- mester.

Standing: Hastings, HE promotion of the ideals of good scholar- ship, good health, Hne social standards and service to the college community as expressed in the Pan-Hellenic Creed through the coordination of sorority activities is the function of the Pan-Hellenic Council. The twelve-member group is composed of one junior and one senior member from each of the six groups. In the advancement of its ideals, the Council each year presents a monetary gift to an outstanding sophomore girl, neutral or member, chosen on the basis of scholarship, need and citizenship. Each se- mester, a scholarship cup is awarded to the sorority attaining the highest average. This past year, the Council sponsored a series of informal dances at the Middlebury Inn during the football season, for particular benth of the freshmen who had not yet gone through rushing and so could not frequent Strauss, Harrison, Walker, Savoye. fraternity parties. Inter-sorority competition was fostered by a Sports committee which scheduled games between the different groups. Pan-Hell also cooperated with IFC in supporting several com- bined projects. Most important of the CounciPS responsibilities is the supervision of the rushing program. Under its direction, a pre-rush Cider Session and Pan-Hell Serenade are given, the party schedule arrangedJ an informative rushing booklet published, rules revised and discussions with interested girls held. In addition to campus activities, the Council sent girls each weekend to the Burlington Childrents Home where they worked and played with under- privileged Children, thus both contributing in serv- ice and in giving many girls experience in practical social work.

But here we are, leav- ing our sophomore year-and most of us know nothing more about the slump than when we started, for it never really hit. As sophomores, our main effort as a class was the Sophomore Dance, named this year the Holiday Hop in honor of the Christmas season. Engineered by many enthusiastic students and headed by Peggy Perry and Charlie Palmer, the Class social Chairmen, the dance was a huge success. McCullough Gym, elaborately decked with Christmas trees, was the setting and December twelfth the date. The sophomore men started something new with a sophomore council, composed of 21 men and headed by Nat Dickinson, to take the place of the previous governmental set-up of officers. The sopho- more women also had something neWeBattell Hall. In a large confusing move from four smaller dorms, we became the first Class to live in this new dorm. We were no longer new on campus, and had lost all feelings of unfamiliarity and greenness.

Little did we know when we entered Middlebury in the fall of ,51 that she would have such a strong influence on our college years. Guid- ing the activities of a group of immature and con- fused freshmen was no easy task, but she helped out in a hundred and one different ways, advising wise- ly in every possible situation. Our admiration for her grew steadily during our sophomore and junior years, when her active presence in all matters of so- cial and academic life left us wondering when she had time for her own personal interests. From choosing rooms to solving love problems, Mrs. Kelly was always there without complaint and with a sure solution. This past year at Midd has been an eventful one, and needless to say, many of its accomplishments 173 to bean Kelli; have been due to Mrs. Kellyis efforts. The Womenls Assembly could not have progressed without her assistance, for she worked industriously to put into effect many of its resolutions. Realizing the poor conditions of the sophomore housing provisions, she strove continually towards her goal of a new dormi- tory, and with the completion of Middle Battell, her dream was realized at last. When two sororities found themselves llhomelessll she was there with particular encouragement and support and even with the much needed scrub-brush when new rooms were finally secured. She has always had our inter- ests at heart as well as those of the college as a whole. When memories of snow-covered mountains and the chapel on the hill fill our thoughts, Dean Kelly will stand out as one of the best remembered and most appreciated figures of our four years at Midd. 77w 1th ChordA WOMEN: NANCY ALLEN ....................................................
