R AR BROWN - 1955 Sometimes I get into what is called the reflection blues mood. It usually comes when things aren't going right, and because intro- spection is olten painlul, it is easier to glance back over times past to find myself again. Yes, the good old days always look better than the uncertainty of the future when things aren't going well. It's comfort ing to know memory has built the past into an ideal and then not care if you're fooling yourself. It builds you up. Maybe it's the real thing after all. The human mind is a funny thing. We see and know only half of what we think we see and know. The rest of it is mostly feel- ings. I was just glancing through the book and thought, Was it really like this? This is supposed to be the real thing, and yet there was so much more to it. Where are the Providence rains? Certainly they existed? Not hav- ing a raincoat was as fatal as cutting all your classes. It got to be like Noah and the Ark, and a friend once said that Rhode Island was the only place besides the Philippines where the typhoons hit. Yes, there was rain and with it came a little beauty. The smell of wet overcoats in classrooms, and outside gusty blasts ol wetness seemed to blow multicolored slickers around. Reds, yellows, and pastel shades of blue whisked by unnoticed. Not long ago sweaters with fraternity pins on- them beckoned for conversation, but that was all ended by the water shedding rubberoid and the rain. It even got to the point that you felt the suy who designed the quad built the tunnels just so you could get to the Ivy room without getting wet. I look at the portraits of the men in my class. Were they really like that? Well maybe on Friday afternoon before the weekend started, but that isn't how they looked the next day. We'd get back from sleeping through Saturday's classes, and then laugh at each other, eyeballs looking like the globe of the world etched in red lines, and moons under them that you could swing from. Then came the bull session when we picked up all the lost pieces of the night before. All the things that happened that you just couldn't remember and you knew why you couldn't too. But God, it was fun. A few guys had black eyes, some had terrific dates, other got blasted completely. some got bird- dogeed, and then even others studied 1nd they looked a little out of it and remorseful. Are you sure those guys in the portiaits are like they really were? Then where the devil are their exam period beards, their foul weather jackets, and the grubby shirt they wore into every exam for luck? Where are their Scotch Koolers from the foot- ball games, their Hillhouse hats, yes, and even their beanies? Take a look at the picture of the boat that was at the crew races at Spring Week-end. It is very fine, but 1t's the outside looking in. I can't find the snap shot of the stimulated fellows who thought the Seekonk would be a nice bath tub. What courage they had when they dived into its oily depths to swim like triumphant Beowulfs to the cheering shore. Here was the magnificent dig- nity of man and a symbol of his undaunted spirit! And the slender shells that were hardly specks in the distance came flashing by, and in those specks were people you knew straining at their oars. A part of us was in each of them, for during those few seconds we were also pulling with them. Every time we saw an athletic contest we became a part of it We were the player on the field and the quarterback in the stands. Both were the same, but the camera could only show one at a time. Wait! There's a shot of the ROTC units. The men in them look like machines. Marching, order ing, automans dressed in bluc. 1 can hardly see their faces. Do they have personalities? What about the day there were no correct shirts in your drawer for drill and vou wore a button down? Standing in rank sweating out the inspec- tion was a minor catastrophe. And the day your ship had a collision in the taciial trainer in Lyman was a reality. No one can say that Navi- g;ition 301 was a gut. It's hard to operate in a third dimension and you felt Ahab was right in T S rarw Moby Dick when he threw his quadrant away. Where is the guy that stood next to you in drill with the high grease shoes that made yours look like they had been through mud? Thank goodness no one photographs Monday mornings. Will we ever get away from them in our lives? Nerves that arc drawn fine by the activity of the week end are played violently upon by the roar of Buildings and Grounds men empty- ing the trash barrels filled with the refuse into the waiting truck. Then like J. Alfred Prufrock you lie in the warmness of your bed trying to decide if you should go to your eight o'clock or not. The clock ticks away and the hands move steadily towards the eight. Is it worth it? A culti- vated conscience or Mrs. Read win out, and with epic dignity you stagger off to the mirror to view the remnants of it all. It is a minor triumph to rise like a phoenix from the ashes of the week end to meet the coming week. There were times when you remained in bed and, comforted by the re- bellious tendencies in you, went back to sleep. Bless the three cut rule. Where are the rules now? Surely they will be with us throughout life? It all comes back to me and the sharper every- thing seems, the more I want to play with the past. This is all part of me and will continue to be so. Those four years were not a black and white stereotyped existence where men were put in sunple categories, but a living experience that inipresses itself deeply on my mind. 1 guess it is the lasting relationships with other people that were most important. PR T b I L A Take for instance the pictures of the social life which naturally include shots of our dates. Now we know that those girls did not just appear on campus during the week ends. But there they are. You get the idea that it was by magic that they showed up for the football, hockey, or baseball game. Maybe it was at that, but Graham Bell earned a lot of royalties from the many telephone calls that went out as well as telegrams and letters. Remember the guy who got ten flushograms for Homecoming? It was a house record and just to save face he snuck over to Bryant on Saturday night to make an engagement for the evening. In the pictures they are just girlsshort, tall, blond, brunette girls. Where did they come from? Every time of year they were up there the dressed-in-fur-coat and six foot scarf ones, the bermuda shorts and sweatered ones, and even those with slickers. What a fool a person would be if he thought they just sat on the wings of the stage of college life to appear in fine regalia before the thousand eyed spotlights on the week end. If you went deeper into their geneology, you would find them during the week in Andrews Hall lounge knitting or playing bridge, at Toy Sun's for a coffee date, at the women's college in Poughkeepsie, N. Y., thirty minutes up Route 20, a few twisty back roads to Wheaton or even a three hour round trip to Wellesley; or, for that matter, a hundred other places. And by the way, they were not always just playing bridge or knitting during the week. Perhaps they were at Harvard or Yale or Princeton or even Trinity the week- i, ;' ; i end before. It was a highly competitive business to get those girls before the camera for a picture. Some of them have been caught or inversely have caught us and may become our wives; so when 1 lasting relationships I don't think T ex- aggerate. This brings to mind the even more valuable experience we gained racing with the clock and accepting the responsibilities of taking care of women. The deadline at the Broke was twelve- thirty during the week, and one o'clock and one-thirty on Friday and Saturday nights respec- tively, if I remember correctly. Now by fast car it was four and one-half minutes from Bovies taking red-lighted stop signs into account, and nine minutes and twenty seconds from the T- Bone excluding them, which is dangerous. From downtown Providence you pays your money and takes your choice. The time element was impos- sible to figure out due to Rhode Island drivers, suicide , and many blue suited fellows in souped up Chevrolets who didn't always see it our way. A brisk walk from the quadrangle to An- drews porch with not too many detours took about ten minutes. All converging couples merged at a few seconds to deadline, if lucky, on the porch where a short period of our favorite extra- el B curricular activity took place, shortly followed by the girl's rush to sign in. When returning our dates to Wheaton the matter was a little more complicated, and the time problem once more depended on the speed of your automobile and the graciousness of constables, Attleboro police, or State Highway patrol. Those who drove Austin Healey's, M. G.'s or Porsches were especially for- tunate, and those who thought their standard American makes were as fast as the sport cars were sometimes not fortunate at all. It's all rela- tivel This last expression was one of the most . et - i.l...'?.l.i'l.'!: u . . L . o . - . . b . - . - - . d L . . . i R L L g important I ever learned, for on numerous occa- sions since, it has acquitted me the victor on any philosophical discussion. Oh, the merits of edu- cation. There seem to be a lot of things that happened in those four years that the camera missed. Then I guess the camera of our mind is always a better product than Eastman Kodak's finest. It sees more and can feel what it sees. Also it can make associ- ations between objects. I guess that education is a matter of associations. There are pictures of the faculty of the university. There are pictures of l. '......'.. ..'. - k4 - . e i - - - t L . . hd E L . i 0 - L the students, but where are shots showing the give and take that went on between them. There seem to be no pictures of the transfer of ideas that passed in classes, in activities, and on the campus as a whole. You can't picture that. But isn't that the most important thing about college? The Workman, George, Van Nostrand or Ducasse that gave his lectures spoke to us in associations of experiences or ideas, and we slaved away at the end of the semester till three packs of cigarettes and many kilowatt hours later we turned in a term paper with our own two bits in it. Others were able to learn from Prof. Adams that two bits and two bits are four bits and then went on to abstract mathematics. Of course we wanted our i pEvser o two bits to add up to a C or higher, but then many of the professors didn't add the same way we did. It's all a matter of associations. You asso- ciate gut with C and no work, you link grind with much work, and so on. Finally it came to the point where you associated yourself with the character in a book, a formula, or history and actually learned something. Even more important, you associated yourself with Man, and even some- times with won The result was idealism and marriage. There is no end to where this kind of thought will lead one. Usually in circles, I think, so let's not chase the academic tail. But wait, this all brings to mind the rumors circuit, or the campus grapevine, which was the biggest criminal in associating names and ideas. We were never amazed by what came hot off its wires. Take the unprecedented civic convocation for in- stance. Apparently people figured that since the university had never done this sort of thing before, there must be some catch to it, and that something big was to be announced. President Woriston's retirement, we understood, was the popular favorite at 5-2 if two announcements were made it was even money to place, but plans for a freshman quadrangle were never out of the running and went oft at about 4-1. We didn't take too much stock in all this, because it didn't seem likely that the president of a prominent Cambridge institution would be invited to Providence to play second fiddle in the violin section, while the lanfare and publicity was deliberately aimed in another di ion. As thinegs turned out, both Wriston and the new quad were still running while the completely unexpected happenedthings went off exactly as planned in the papers. This all shows that things aren't what they seem to be always, but then you can never count on that, either. Abandon your grapevines, before you go down with the ship! 12 In some way memory is a grapevine though, and the reflection blues sometimes get very blue. All the thoughts that were pleasant sometime give way to the minor tragedies that make up this life. Willie was one of these. He died as he lived. Tt was Thanksgiving Day. Two minutes to go in the Colgate game. Colgate on the one yard line. On the parapet of section G a ficure could be seen waying an assortment of pennants. Suddenly he disappeared. Like the ripple spreading outward from the plop a stone has made in a quiet pool, the stands rose to their feet. The game stopped. Enter the ambulance and stretcher, exit Willie. The game went on as belore, for no one knew until the next day that photo by Prov. Journal Willie had died. It was the last game of the season. It was Willie's last game too, and he sel- dom missed one. We can still picture him in a W. C. Field'slike comedy with the Pinkerton men who weren't fooling at all. They tried to evict him from the game, but we wouldn't let them. He was that well liked and a tradition almost. Was the year really like this? I wonder. As you think back over it certain impressions stand out. They move in and out of focus and depend en- tirely upon your mood. No two people receive the same impressions, but all are bound to be touched by certain aspects of life that leave their imprint on the memory.

It has been his mission again and again to point out that though by restricting the range of our interest we can diive rapidly toward a limited ooal, too little is gained when this is done by beating down the finer reaches of the human spirit. For he has known and has helped us all to see that where concentration on a narrow worldy objective takes over, color and enhancement and finally, meaning depart from life to leave greyness, repelitiveness, and ordinariness to rule there unopposed.

There for a while in the universal gathering. There for a while shining brighter than most. Respect, love, and comradeship bursting off in a beam; then returning with new, now confident rays for the fold. Omne so warm, so personable, and so learned. One charming and gracious, a twinkling of fun in his eye. Collectively we have lost a great administrator; individually, a friend and inspiration. 15 16 ADMINIS AND Samuel Tomlinson Arnold, Ph.D., Sc.D., Sc.E.D., LL.D.

Commencement Week comes around each June, and with it a magical atmosphere that is hard to describe. It has often been said that the eraduation festivities at Brown are the most im- pressive in the world. The 186th Commencement included the familiar entities of importance Reunion, with its boisterous, sentimental, but happy reclaiming of lost moments; Under the Elms, with the distinguished guest speaker Dr. Merrill K. Bennett, '19, the Director of The Food Research Institute at Stanford University; an Alumni Dinner, Graduate Convocation, Bacca- laureate Service, President's Reception, messages of thoughtfulness, Senior orations, official acts, elections, honors, and the University's hospitality. Judge Fred B. Perkins, '19, Secretary of the Corporation, started the activities in the proper vein with a light but meaningful address at the Senior Clambake. Campus Dance was a big and bustling party, reminiscent of the unregulated splendor of Fitzgerald's twenties. Parents, under- graduates, faculty, alumni, administration, and friends met in genial celebration around the start- ing blocks to the road of life. And then a bright morning and a procession. Henry S. Chafee, '09, Providence industrialist and civic leader and Past President of the Associ- ated Alumni was Chief Marshal of the commence- ment lines that wound their way into the First Baptist Meeting House. There George S. Mor- fogen and Paul B. Taylor were the Senior Orators. Back on the Green, from the historic Manning Chair, Dr. Wriston handed degrees to 27 Three Ivy League Leaders-President Dodds of Princeton, . Wriston, and President Pusey of Harvard 377 Seniors from Brown and 170 from Pembroke. Captain Frederick W. Laing administered the oath of allegiance to 51 Seniors who won com- missions at the completion of their NROTC training. The honorary degree list was one of the best in years. Honorary LL.D.'s went to: George M. Humphrey, U. S. Secretary ol the Treasury; Pres- 1ident Harold W. Dodds of Princeton; Clarence B. Randall, Chairman of the Board of Inland Steel Co. and recently Chairman of President Eisen- hower's Commission on Foreign Economic Policy; President Nathan M. Pusey of Harvard. Receiving Doctor of Science degrees were Dr. Fiorindo A. Simeone, '29, Director of Surgery at Cleveland City Hospital, and Dr. Alex M. Bur- gess, '06, Chief of Medicine of the VA area med- ical office in Boston. The Rev. Gordon E. Bige- low, '24, minister of the First Baptist Church in Beverly, Massachusetts, received an honorary D.D., while Merrill K. Bennett, '19, received the rarely accorded Doctor of Humane Letters degree.

ALUMNI ASSOCIATION TO THE CLASS OF 1955: With the march down the Hill on Commence- ment Day, the Class of 1955 joins the procession of approximately 19,000 other alumni of Brown Uni- versity. The presence of many of those alumni along the route of your march is a symbol of their welcome to you. There is from now on, an impor- tant place for you in their ranks. With the graduation of the Class, all members of 1955 automatically become members of the As- sociated Alumni of Brown University. There are no dues. But, as with citizenship, membership means little unless you are active in enjoying your privileges and assuming some responsibility. First, there is your own Class in which to con- tinue a lively allegiance. The Class is a strong, natural unit. Its reunions will reward you; its proj- ects warrant your backing. A good undergraduate Class, 1955 will be a good alumni Class. Then, there are more than sixty Brown Clubs throughout the country where you may join with other alumni in fellowship, pleasure, and practical programs on behalf of Brown. They will benefit from your enthusiasm. Periodically, the 4lumni Monthly publishes a directory of these Clubs, in- cluding the names of Club Secretaries. Particularly at the outset, the new alumnus ought to make the overture in reporting his availability for meetings, work with sub-freshmen, and other activity. Some Departments of Instruction and undergraduate or- ganizations maintain their own specialized alumni groups, too. The University Fund is the principal medium through which Brown men and others can make most effective their financial support of Browna vital support. Last year about 2,000 alumni worked in the campaign organization, enlisting the aid of thousands more in raising $305,000 as the 1954 an- nual gift to the University, to which 6,560 alumni contributed. It is a practical way of expressing any appreciation or hopes you may have for Brown. Headquarters of alumni activity is in Alumni House. Here is the service office of the Associated Alumni, with all facilities for keeping you in touch with your college friends and doing the staff work lor the vast alumni program. You can help by keep- ing Alumni House up to date on your address, your business or professional progress, and other vital statistics. A good mailing address enables the Brown Alumni Monthly to send you its nine issues a year promptly. Here, too, is a clearing house for any comments, questions, or ideas you may have on University matters, which are so- licited. Your vote for Alumni Trustees, Alumni Of- ficers, and Athletic Advisory Council members is important. Return your annual ballots faithtully. Chesley Worthington, 23, Editor of the Brown Alumni Monthly, and Allen B. Williams, Jr., 40, Executive Secretary, Brown Alumni Fund. Many things you can do and will do because you are Brown alumni. Many things we can and will do for you because you are one of us in a great, loyal company. In the fellowship of Brown men there is no parting. However far you go from Col- lege Hill, you will never leave Brown. T'he mark of Brown is forever on you: your thoughts, words, and acts help make it the University you want it to be. Joining with other loyalists makes your loyalty more productive. This is your welcome to the Associated Alumni. Elmer S. Horton, 10 President, the Associated Alumni of Brown University 65 NS R R i S SN cmasso 68 el B C Let's have a cup of coffee in the Blue Room. How about a quick game of pool? Lets check our mailboxes? Have you ever heard any of these remarks from students on the campus? Of course you have. But they wouldn't be made it it were not for the Faunce House Board of Governors, the student organization intended to provide the stu- dents of Brown with the opportunity to express themselves through the activities in which they are interested. Faunce House contains rooms for all purposes, ranging from audition rooms for WBRU and re- hearsal rooms for the band and orchestra to the pool room, and offices for the management of nearly all of the student activities. On the third floor are the offices of the Liber, WBRU, the Cam- marian Club, and the Debating Union. The sec- ond floor holds the Herald and the other offices of the student union. The first floor contains the lounges, the smoke and magazine shop, the Blue Room and the Auditorium. The basement houses the pool room, the Post Office, the University Store and the book store. Almost all of the student ac- tivities are housed or held in Faunce House, and the Student Board of Governors is the one con- trolling factor for all of them. The Faunce House Board of Governors has just one main purposeto provide social and recrea- tional activities for the students of Brown Univer- sity. It 1s a service organization intended to de- velop the social and recreational life of the Univer- sity community. Towards its goal, the Board of Governors has accomplished much. The Board is composed of a number of Com- mittees, each intended to take control of one of the social activities. Each committee works independ- ently, but over the whole system there is an execu- tive board, working to coordinate the efforts of all of the members of the Board of Governors. Each of the activities runs smoothly, possibly because of the great cooperation between the Executive Board, the entire Board, and the University ad- ministration. Relaxing in the West Lounge. C Executive Committee, seated, left to right: Clayson, Easton President, Halpert, Baird; standing, Greer, Ryder. This year the Board of Governors sponsored a series of activities that could provide any student with some outlet for his personality. Every week- end there were the movies. During the exam period, the Board presented cartoons in an attempt to alleviate the tensions present at this time. Every day there was an opportlmity to play chess, check- ers, pool, billiards, ping-pong, to read the home- town paper, or just sit in the lounges. At Christmas there was the Christmas Party; earlier in the year was the Faunce House Open House. Each of these parties offered the student the opportunity to have a date and at the same time enjoy the facilities of Faunce House. During the year there were tourna- ments in chess, ping-pong, billiards, and pool, readings of both poetry and prose. In addition there were the debates, the Lenten series of dis- cussions, the talks, and the other cultural activities. Through such events, the Board of Governors of- ters each and every student the chance to enjoy some of the pleasures of University life. Ever since the student union was donated to the University and its students, Faunce House has had as its main purpose the social and recreational de- velopment of the students. The Faunce House Board of Governors, with the assistance of the Di- rector of Faunce House, is the one organization that makes sure the undergraduates are familiar with the opportunities open to them. Without the guidance ol the Board of Governors and the special events which it plans, the student would find it very difficult to find worthwhile means of passing his leisure time. The Board and the Director of Faunce House do much to guarantee the develop- ment of the student at Brown, and to create a uni- fied community. 69 B. C. A The Brown Christian Association had its be- ginnings over one hundred and fifty years ago in the Brown Praying Society. At present, under the able guidance of Executive Secretary, K. Brooke Anderson, the B.C.A., which is afhliated with the New England Christian Movement, 1 'he National Student Y.M.C.A., and the World Student Chris- tian Federation strives for the promotion of inter- religious harmony at Brown. The B.C.A. is made up of a group of sub-divi- sions and committees, which are all under the di- rection of the organization's president, Clifford Kolb. It is through these sub-divisions that the Christian Association carries out its objectives. The Freshman Week Committee greets incom- ing students upon their arrival, and assists them in finding their way around campus for the first few days. It promotes such things as activities lectures and the Freshman Dance with Pembroke in order that the freshmen may see what Brown has to offer them besides studies. The B.C.A. is also respon- Left to right: Romer, Juncker, K. Brooke Anderson sible for making up and printing Bear Facts, a book containing a map of the school and describing the activities, regulations and traditions at Brown. Through these branches the B.C.A. helps to orien- tate the newcomers to campus life. The World Community Commission attempts to achieve a greater understanding of significant political and social topics. This has been done through a series of discussions at Friday afternoon Coffee Hours, at lectures by guest speakers and panel discussions. Another function of this com- mission is to aid foreign students, working to inte- grate them into campus life in every way possible. This year arrangements were made for a great many of them to spend Thanksgiving at the homes of other students. This commission also directs the annual observance of World Affairs Week in Rhode Island. Another activity of the B.C.A. is the sponsorship and direction of Religious Embassy Week. The theme of this year's Embassy was, Crisis, Faith and Fear. The principal speaker was Dr. George A. Executive Secretary, Kolb President, Trowbridge. Front row, lett to right: Melendy, Juergens, Easton, Lishon; back row, Simenkow, Jenson, Letiecq, Freeman, Field. Buttrick, of the Madison Avenue Presbyterian Church and the Harvard Divinity School. Other prominent clerical leaders also spoke, and discus- sion groups were held in the various dormitories and fraternities. Newly formed this year is the Committee on Ef- fective Citizenship. This group organizes discus- sions and lectures concerning the Christian citizen and his relationship to international society, his church society, and the American society. The Christian Faith and Heritage Commission promotes religious thought on the campus and contributes to the more general understanding of the Christian Heritage. This is done through gath- erings in dorms for study and discussion, discus- sion groups made up of students and faculty mem- bers alike, and meetings held during religious seasons. L.ectures by well known members of the clergy are also presented. At the bi-weekly meetings of the Fellowship Breakfast Commission an attempt is made to un- derstand the groundwork of Christian faith rather than discussing fine points of Christian doctrine. Some of these discussions are led by faculty mem- bers, and some by students. Students' questions concerning dating, matri- mony, and similar topics were taken up this year by the Courtship and Marriage Commission. After spending a semester laying the groundwork tor their program, the commission sponsored a series of four lectures on such subjects as Dating and Courtship, Interfaith Marriages, and Family Relations. The Christian Community Commission con- tributes toward social progress and relorm by en couraging the formation of boys' clubs and scout troops and helping them to plan their programs. Lhey also sponsor two parties for underprivileged children, one at Halloween, and another just be. fore Christmas. ' The D.P. Commission gives financial aid to dis- placed persons who are students at Brown, and also advises them with their academic, social and spiritual problems. As an organization, the Brown Christian Associ- ation has grown tremendously from the Brown Praying Society of the early 1800's. Now the B.C.A. works not only to promote the intangibles of faith and inter-religious hartmony, but it also performs agreat many uselul material lunctions for the goad ol the community. vd il BROWN CHARITIES For the second year in a row, the Brown Chari- ties Drive surpassed its goal of $5,000, this year's margin being one hundred dollars. Once again WBRU conducted a twenty-four hour marathon, while the Brown Daily Herald donated space and time to articles, advertisements, and arranged lor prizes to top solicitors from local merchants. Ten fraternities and eight dormitories an- nounced one hundred percent donations, although support from the commuters was weak. Awards went to Zeta Psi lor the highest contributions per man and to Psi Upsilon for the first group to bring in 1009, contributions. Highlighting the spring was the presentation and planting of a Japanese cherry tree, a symbol ol gratitude from the Japanese Christian Univer- sity for the generosity of Brown men. Other recip- 1ents of the Brown Charities Drive were the World University Service, the Negro Scholarship Fund, the John Hope Center, the Brown Christian As- sociation, and a deserving Freshman at Brown. A separate entity in the last few years, the Drive has shown the fruits of its independence by raising its goals in 1953-54 and 1954-55 from $4,000 to $5,000, and attaining these goals both times. Al- though Brown lags behind Yale and Dartmouth, who average a five dollar donation per man, the trend of giving to charity is on the increase, and within a few years is is hoped that Brown will be able to equal this record. Under the chairmanship of Alan Thomson this year, the Drive will be headed next year by Charles Flather, with Donald Walsh and Robert Goff as vice-chairmen. Egan, Walsh, Chairman Thomson, and Flather tabulating donations. CAM CLUB The Cammarian Club, the oldest student gov- ernment in an American college or university, pur- sued three objectives in the year 1954-55. First, the Club sought to eliminate overlapping of other or- ganizations within the jurisdiction of the student government; second it extended its influence into and over organizations and areas previously un- touched. The third objective was to strengthen present privileges and secure others when sufficient responsibility was demonstrated by the student body. Accompanied by controversy, criticism, and praise, the Cammarian Club fulfilled the objec- tives to a great degree, legislating open houses, lower unlimited cut requirements, Friday night music ban, and suspension of the Brunonia con- stitution. However, by far, the most significant The Executive Committee - Seated, left to right: Mayerson, Ilchman President, Kilpatrick; standing, Hale, Adkins. project of the year was the establishment of the Brown Report, a three-year critical appraisal of every facet of undergraduate life. Furthermore, there were many successful resolutions: curing the mechanical defects in the Cammarian Club, the joining of the N.S.A., and the re-evaluation of the Vigilance Committee. Lhe officers of the Cammarian Club this past year were Warren Ilchman, president; James Kil- patrick, vice-president; Roger Hale, recording sec- tetary: Douglas Adkins, corresponding secretary; and Peter Mayerson, treasurer. As a vital and important aspect of the educa- tional process in a liberal arts college, the Cam- marian Club serves to reflect and demonstrate stu- dent responsibility and maturity. 73 Literary staff at w The layout departmer Erwin, Jr., Editor-un Chie .

BRUNONIA It is impossible to underestimate the stimulation the Brunonia gives to those individuals on campus who have creative tendencies and would like to express their feeling to a public, no matter how limited. This year has been one of political stain for in- tellectuals throughout the United States, and Brunonia was not exempted from the role. During the Fall semester it came before a subcommittee of the Cam Club on the issue of mismanagement in the form of illegal elections of officers in the or- ganization. Such a maneuver proved a mistake, for the inquisitors forgot the age old maxim that the pen is mightier than the sword, and the Brunonia staff captained by William Kelly squashed all charges in consecutive articles appearing in the BDH. Standing firmly on the basis of intellectual freedom for himself and his cohorts, he proclaimed it essential that elections be held in a coffee break at the Blue Room. Everybody agreed. The staff turned out three issues during the year, and all revealed a definite degree of com- mendable talent around the campus. The group composed of Baltzell, Malinou, Kelly, Perkins and Anonymous contributed a large segment of the works; but a freshman MSS contest unearthed Willenbecher, a more than capable cartoonist and writer, and some other talented souls who filled the remainder of the space. Also an all campus MSS contest was held which proved equally suc- cessful. Armin Frank proved a staunch contribu- tor who could always be relied on to tuin out a commendable poem or story. 79 The Sports Department at work. On the air. 80 At the conclusion of the 1955 school vyear, WBRU will have completed nineteen years of con- tinuous service to the community. It holds the dis- tinction of being the oldest college broadcasting station in the country and at present is the largest student organization at Brown with 100 members. Serving the Brown and Pembroke campuses, the network has engaged in constant polling and research to provide the finest in entertainment for the college. This has resulted in a versatile pro- gram schedule including everything from a pro- duction of Gilbert and Sullivan's Mikado to the reading of the funnies on Sunday morning. Also, sports coverage was extended this year to include all the football games. Some minor sports are broadcast if time and location permit, notably wrestling meets. The record collection has been increased to 10,000, not including many classical recordings. WBRU is a member station of the Intercollegi- ate Broadcasting System, of which it was the founder, and the Ivy Network, Inc., through which member stations exchange programs and other broadcasting ideas. The station is supported en- tirely by commercial advertising. It operates the longest number of hours of any college station and longer than any commercial station in Providence. This year, for the first time in the history of the network, program coverage has been extended to serve not only the campus, but also the Associated Alumni. Certain programs, particularly football, were sent to alumni headquarters in Chicago, Mil- waukee, Pittsburgh, and Buffalo. Also, invitations were extended to alumni, faculty, and friends of the university to hear the hockey games in the West L.ounge of Faunce House. In the annual fund raising marathon, conducted on behalf of the Brown Charities, the station re- ceived pledges for $2800. The Senior Board for 1955 was: Lewis Schaffer, Station Manager; Donald Silverman, Program Manager; Charles Marcus, Chief Engineer; Martin Imm, Business Manager; Sally McCarthy, Execu- tive Secretary. As the engineer sees it. 31 82 Rehearsal, a necessary evil. ROWN GLEE CLUB Newspaper clippings of the 1820's indicate that a singing group had been established at Brown shortly after the turn of the century. This initial group later developed into the Brown Glee Club. Since its inception, this musical organization has been a popular source of entertainment both on and off the college green. In the 1920's the Glee Club sought a new field of singing and so it added to its ranks a banjo and mandolin group. In 1925 the club made a success- ful and unique tour by appearing in black face for several very popular minstrel shows. The organiza- tion in the years to follow united with the Pem- broke Glee Club and began to supplement their endeavors in light music with heavier choral work. The University Chorus, as it was then called, be- came a separate organization in 1950 because it was felt that it would affort a greater opportunity for straight male vocal specialization. Over a century ol singing has seen the Brown Glee Club evolve as one of the most outstanding musical groups on campus. Today it has achieved an almost professional quality in its style of pres- entation and its unique and assorted musical varia- tions. This year's Glee Club, its president Tom Cot- trell and its leader David Laurent, has enjoyed a successful year with concerts in Albany, New York, Falmouth, Massachusetts, and Westerly and Rum- ford, Rhode Island, and of course ending with the final concert of the year on the campus. Ihe Brown University Chorus continued o provide choral music for the University this yeur, as it has for the past one hundred and fitty years, Lhis year, the chorus sang Elijal and La Traviata as its two main works. It also gave several lesser concerts, providing the students of the University and the members of the Providence community the opportunity to hear and appreciate the longer choral works. Under Mr. Laurant's direction, the chorus has developed into one of the best college choirs in this part of the country. He has molded the voices of sixty members into a unit, each singer striving to produce the best he is able. In this way, the chorus has become an excellent interpreter of the moods and attitudes of the composer. The chorus Christmas concert featured as its ROWN UNIVERSITY CHORUS Working on a concert. principal number a version of the Magnificat, ar- ranged by Ruth Laurant, wife of the chorus di- rector, David Laurant. In February, the Univer- sity of Connecticut Chorus joined Brown's Chorus in presenting Llijah, by Felix Mendelssohn. David Laurant was featured as Elijah, the baritone solo, along with students from Connecticut as the other soloists. Later in the spring the chorus joined with the Rhode Island Philharmonic Orchestra in of- tering La Traviata. The chorus provides an outlet for those stu- dents desiring to express themselves through seri- ous music, while at the same time offering out- standing music for listeners seeking well-expressed, world-renowned music. The chorus has provided for Brown and the surrounding community a strong expression of the student's interpretations of the world's best choral music. 84 A concert in Alumnae Hall. BROWN SYMPHONY In 1886, The Brown University Symphony So- ciety made its first appearance on campus. The original group of a few musicians gave its first pub- lic performance that year. The Society's life was intermittent from then until 1920, when it became firmly established, giving concerts throughout New England. At present the Brown University Orchestra provides for ensemble playing in the university community. Not only students, but also members of the faculty and interested townspeople are invited to participate. The orchestra has experi- enced an increase in size as well as in quality in the past few years. The orchestra has risen to a membership of approximately 65 in the past season. To this number about ten professionals were added for the concerts to fill parts that could not be filled by the university community amateurs. Along with the increasing size of the orchestra has come an increase in attendance at concerts. This has encouraged even greater efforts by its members. A great deal of the credit for the increasing interest, quality, and attendance should be given to the lecaders of the orchestra, President Paul Letiecq, Vice-President Hank Juncker, Secretary Mary Medsger, and Professor Martin Fischer, the director. In the fall semester, the orchestra presented a student soloist program with works by Handel, Weber, Mozart, and Schuman. This was followed by the Christmas Festival Concert given jointly with the University Chorus. The major concert of the year was the Spring Concert in March. At this time, Mr. Alfred Krips, Assistant Con- certmaster of the Boston Symphony Orchestra and Concertmaster of the Boston Pops, played the Beethoven Concerto in D. The other major work was the Symphony No. 2, The Romantic, by Howard Hanson, the present director of the Eastman School of Music. The final concert of the orchestra's season was a Pops Concert spon- sored annually by the Brown Club of Rhode Island. The Brown University Photography Club con- tinues its long-standing tradition of providing stimulating activity in every phase of photo- graphic work. As would be expected, much of the club's effort is centered around its darkrooms in Faunce House. The five available rooms provide clean and convenient working areas for the processing of negatives and the finishing of prints. Three modern enlargers, several timers, an assortment of processing trays, and two electric ferrotype dryers are the basis of the equipment which the club supplies for members use. In addition to the darkroom activities, weekly meetings provide an excellent opportunity for discussion of recent developments in portraiture, available-light photography, color photography, photo journalism, and darkroom technique. The significance of photography as a visual art and its increasing importance in modern journalism are heavily stressed. Lectures are frequently given by qualified authorities on photography; and motion pictures and color slides of an instructive nature have also proved beneficial. Occasionally, members are asked to submit prints or slides for Studying technical details. Viewing the work of a member. PHOTOGRAPHY CLUB discussion and constructive criticism. In this way, members increase their knowledge of photo- graphic theory and practice. At the same time, they find themselves developing an acuteness in the judgment of relative merits of contemporary work. Continued interest has been shown in the Eastern Intercollegiate Salon, now in its third year. Last year's competition took place here at Brown, and the photography club was responsible for its smooth operation. Following exhibition in the art gallery, the ten winning prints were circulated among the participating colleges. In addition to the intercollegiate competition, a club salon is usually held in the spring to allow members the opportunity of presenting their best photographic efforts to the scrutiny of the uni- versity community. The majority of the club members also participate in campus publications. Leadership this year has been handled by presi- dents Bill Pearce and John Chase; and their fellow officers, Dick Whalen, Kurt Johnson, Bill Averill, Dave Labovitz, and L.ou Ray. 85 Charlie's Aunt. COMMITTEE ON DRAMATIC PRODUCTIONS Professor Ben Brown Benjamin Williams Brown died on January 7, 1955. His inspirational leadership was now legend, and Brown had suffered a great loss. He became the director of dramatics in 1939 thence donating unremitting devotion to the 1954 Brownbrokers -Give It A Whirl. cause of undergraduate dramatics at Brown and Pembroke. In 1940 he began his unforgettable series of Sc and Buskin successes, which, in a way, remain as his finest memorial. His demise closes a chapter of dramatics at Brown. The Brown theater seas opened this year with a pleasant reliving of Shakespeares Mac- beth, which was performed to attentive audiences during four evenings. The reaction was very ex- tional for Shakespeare in general and espe- lly for Shakespeare at Brown, a fact exhibited by two sell-out nights. Prominent in the produc- tion were L.ou Tananbaum as Macbeth and Marge Lightfoot as Lady Macbeth, whose acting was indeed exceptional. Robert Borod, Joe Balogna and Roy Mec- Kechnie were the mainstays of Stalag 17, a play which gave the dramatic association an excellent start on the road of modern production. As director, James Barnhill did a good job rounding the cast into near perfc ion, and as technical director Leslie Jones did his usual fine work. The five performances included one matinee, something which has been missing in Brown productions for some time. To present a sound light comedy, Charlie's Aunt was the choice with Lew Peterson com- manding a convincing portrayal of Charlie's aunt. Macbeth Sock and Buskin had completed a successful year; and the final show of the year by the Brown and Pembroke dramatic enthusiasts, Brownbrok- ers' Laughs on You by Tom Korman, stands as real testimony to the talent around Waterman Street's little theater. Bob Waldman's music and G Bushell's lyrics teamed with the student-dir of Harriet Nichols made this a true success. Stalag 17 RADIO CLUB All members of the Brown Radio Club agree that this has been the club's most successful year since it came into existence on the hill. Under the suidance of its officers, the club increased its resources and membership to a new high. Two movies were run with such profitable results that the club was able to purchase much needed equip- ment for its station in Faunce House. With the new equlpment and a higher antenna, the radio station is now one of the best equipped and most powerful of any college amateur radio sta- tions in the East. During the year, the club engaged in several ptograms designed to instruct and aid the mem- bers in their study of radio. Dr. Angulo and Dr. Peck each oave interesting talks on the principles of radio. Code classes and instruction periods were conducted by the club which enabled sev- eral of the members to obtain their F.C.C. licenses. If the interest in the club continues to grow as it has in the past year, even greater results can be expected in the years to come. President Spiller and club members sending a call. YOUNG REPUBLICANS The Young Republican Club of Brown Uni- versity, one ot the oldest college political groups in the East, exists primarily to infuse its members with the spirit and ideals of the Grand Old Party. Speakers prominent in both local and national Republican circles often address the club and constitute an important function of the club. The first semester was highlighted by addresses from Roland Hughes, Brown 17, Director of the Budget, and Randolph Burgess, undersecretary of the Treasury for Monetary Affairs, who gave the club an invaluable insight into present-day Wash- ington affairs. The second semester's main activity President Bivens con- ducts a weekly meeting. was a convention of New England Young Repub- licans, held at Brown on April fifteenth and sponsored by the Brown Club. Discussion of current affairs and political prob- lems is frequent, and acts to clarify the constant influx of new ideas and policies, which are a part of party growth and contributive to its genius. The Brown club is associated with the New England Council of Young Republicans, and also with the National Young Republicans. It is re- garded as a very active group, and takes a vigorous part in both local and national Republican affairs. 7 7 ! Discussing possible topics. DEBATING UNION About eleven hundred people filled Sayles Hall to standing-room only on October Seventh to hear Brown and Oxford University of England debate the topic, Resolved: that the United States should extend diplomatic relations to Communist China. The Brown Debating Union, represented by Rodney Mara, '55, president and Jovite La Bonte, Jr., 56, vice-president, argued the negative. President Wriston, serving as chairman, an- nounced the decision of the five judges; 4-1 in favor of Brown. Thus began one of the most active and suc- cessful years of debating on the Brown campus in recent decades. Under the capable and ener- getic leadership of President Mara, the Union enteted upon the dual mission of training young debaters for intercollegiate contests and, at the same tme, presenting to the student body and the public debates that were interesting and informative. Two-thirds of the way through the debating season, Brown led the Ivy League with a record of five wins and one loss. At that point their overall record was twenty-three to eleven. The West Point debate was scheduled but was not held. Jerry Barodach, '55, treasurer, Joseph Towns- end, '57, secretary, and Peter Freyd, 58, completed the executive board which provided the impetus to a highly successtul year. 89 INTELLECTUAL e S OO T M e G S S s - 92 Norman H. Pearson Arthur S. Fleming LECTURES Attending the various lectures given at Brown can be a highly interesting and rewarding ex- perience. ; This year the Colver I.ecture Fund sponsored a talk by Gleanth Brooks on The Historical Ref- erences in Faulkner. Besides single lectures, the Colver Fund supported two series this year. The first was given in the fall by Dr. Elton True- blood, Chief of Religious Information of the United States Information Agency, on The Spir- itual Basis of a Democratic Society. In the spring the subject was of a scientific nature. This year's Marshall Woods Lectures were on the subject ol Exploring the Earth.

Joseph Cleanth Brooks Daniel Merriman Dr. Jerome Namias Dr. Leonard Carmichael 0. Fletcher, USAF, Professor I.. Don Leet, Rear Admiral Robert W. Knox, these lectures covered The Emergence of the Mind, The Jet Stream, I'he Ice Islands, Food From the Sea, The Interior of the Earth, and Mapping the Earth. At the Pembroke All-college Conference, the two main speakers were Professor Norman H. Pearson of Yale and United States Defense Mo- bilizer Arthur S. Fleming, who spoke on The Problem of Culture for the Masses, and U. S. Defense as a Deterrent for World Chaos respec- tively. The Brown University Lecture Series, featuring faculty members, dealt with the Background of the Renaissance. The religion, drama, music, and politics of the period were discussed by men from suitable departments. 93 SIGMA XI Translated, the symbols of Sigma Xi mean Associates in Zealous Research. This motto, when expanded, expresses the purpose of the or- ganization to interchange with men of a calibre that would benefit by that interchange, scientific ideas at a professional level. Membership in Sigma Xi is controlled by a board of electors which selects the greater portion of new members from among graduate scientists. Outstanding men, however, are admitted as asso- ciate members in their senior or junior years. Election to Sigma Xi is manifestly a signal honor; and each man, as a scientist, must be conspicuous in his field. Front row, left to right: Ilchman, Blazer, Ilirsbon, Carlson.

The Phi Beta Kappa Society was founded on December 5, 1776, at the College of William and Mary. In a sense, it was the first of the so-called Greek Letter societies; and in its initial period at William and Mary, it incorporated many of the characteristics of such organizationsan oath of secrecy, a badge, mottoes, a code of laws, an elaborate initiation ritual, and a special hand- clasp. The original society at William and Mary existed actively for only four years, until the approach of Cornwallis army forced the college to close its doors. KAPPA CHEMISTRY CLUB o Under the leadership of President Raymond Taylor, the Chemistry Club carried on an ex- cellent series of demonstrations and lectures dur- ing the past year. The club, which is open to students from both Brown and Pembroke, holds meetings and informal gatherings in Metcalf Chemical Laboratory, where addresses on various interesting aspects of Chemistry and allied sci- ences are given, often along with scientific movies. Besides regular meetings, the club also has social gatherings such as picnics. Besides President Taylor, the other officers of the club included Albert Perrino, vice-president, Arthur Laferriere, secretary, and Robert Bern- heim, treasurer. The club's faculty advisor is Professor Edward Greene. An occasional meeting. A regular meeting in Metcalf Auditorium. Founded in September, 1947, the Biology Club was formed to increase the interest of pre-medical students and biology majors through the dis- cussion of subjects somewhat different in nature from those discussed in class. The club which has a membership made up of both Brown and Pembroke students, holds monthly meetings at which members of the Brown faculty speak on topics of current interest which are related to the field of biology. The club also makes information on the requirements of various medical schools available to the mem- bers. The club's activities are not of a strictly academic nature, however, as it includes social events in its calendar. BIOLOGY CLUB 95 Movies were sometimes shown. B E S The Brown Engineering Society is composed of such national societies as the American Insti- tute of Electrical Engineers, the American Society of Civil Engineers, and the American Society of Mechanical Engineers, serving as a common foundation for all of them. Although each of these societies exists as a separate organization, the Brown Engineering Society is composed of members of all of the smaller societies. Its pur- pose is to provide a common social and technical background for the engineers on the campus. This year, the society has been composed of most of the engineers in the school. For the future engineers, the society has presented pro- grams of interest from different fields of the engineering professions. In the spring, the society went on a field trip to study production methods at a nearby General Motors plant. Through such talks and field trips, the society aids all engineers in finding a place in the profession. The social side of the society was highlighted this year by the Log-a-rythm ILeap, a dance attended by many of the engineers. Those students whose interests lie in the realm of Physics and wish to find an extension of any interests they may have in common and pertinent to their field, find adequate expression for their views in the Physics Club. The sole purpose of the organization is to loster interest in the phys- ical sciences and foster a closer relationship with the faculty. Every other Tuesday evening meetings are held with speakers from various departments of the University talking about their respective fields. They are of an informal nature and stress fully the purpose of the club. In order to stim- ulate interest in the physical sciences, field trips were taken. A good example of which was the journey to the Wellesley Physics Department in April. An open house of the Brown Physical Sci- ence Department for high school students in the surrounding area with interests in that field was also a project of the club. In a different vein, there was activity in the social aspects of the Physics Club, the result being a trip to the Brown Outing Reservation. PHYSICS CLUIS Physicists study the earth. The formation of new clubs and organizations at a University is a fairly clear index of the in- crease of student intercst in problems and activ- ities outside of the classroom. After a three year period of inactivity the Classics Club has under- gone a strict reorganization and is again function- ing smoothly. The club is based on the active participation of both graduate and undergraduate in discussion on various topics. Usually these discussions focus upon a principal speaker who is familiar with a specific field in the Classics. R. Webster Ray, a returning veteran, showed numerous slides of the Parthenon which he took while on active duty in the Mediterranean. The second meeting was climaxed by a talk given by Professor Loerke of the Art Department. It was called Evidence of Things Invisible, and reflected the influence of Christian thought upon classical art. Richard DeCamp was elected president at the organizational meeting and William Bivens was to fill the position ol vice-president. Faculty ad- visors are Professors Couch and Workman re- spectively. Under this able leadership there is little doubt that the club will continue to gain in interest and activity.

GEOLOGCY GEY The Geology Club at Brown University was re-activated in the fall of 1952, after having been inactive for several years. It received official Uni- versity recognition the following year upon ap- proval of the constitution by the Cammarian Club. With the grateful assistance of its faculty ad- visor, Dr. William A. Oliver, the club strives to promote interest in the field of geology among the student body. Membership is open to all stu- dents of Brown University and Pembroke College on both undergraduate and graduate levels. Throughout the past year the club, in con- junction with the Geology Department, has been addressed by prominent men in the field of geol- ogy. After these talks, students are able to ques- tion first hand the theories proposed by these men theories which well may prove to be fact in time to come. Other activities have in- cluded talks within the department, a sound film tracing the evolution of the oil industry, and a spring beach party. It is by such a program, scholastic and social that the Geology Club en- deavors to further interest in the geological sci- ence among the student body. iV it Geologists gather in The French Club endeavors to familiarize its members with a French environment and culture, and to furnish students of French at Brown with an opportunity to become acquainted with one another and put their knowledge of the language to practical use, as well as increase their pro- ficiency in it. Weekly coflee hours are held, where over coffee and a bit of French pastry, members can converse informally in French. Programs at the regular meetings have included brief talks on life in France, art slides and singing in the native tongue. The president of the French Club is Martin Arabian. Other officers include Ronald Peters, vice-president, Elizabeth Reiss, secretary, and Sylvia Themo, treasurer. The faculty advisor is Professor Salvan. RENCH CLUB Parlez vous francais? Meetings tended toward informality. SPANISH CLUB The Spanish Club, which was founded in 1936, seeks to bring all interested students into contact with the Hispanic world, its peoples, language, culture and civilization. The programs of the meetings include illustrated lectures on Hispanic paintings and music, illustrated talks by students, faculty, or guest speakers on their travels or activities in Hispanic countries, and analyses of contemporary movements. Latin American dances and songs are included at the club's socials and Spanish is spoken. An annual outing, the gastronomically unique paella, rounds out the year. Thus the Spanish club suc- ceeds in fostering student interest in Spain and the Spanish speaking countries through an ex- tremely varied program. Professor Trueblood is the faculty councilor and exerts much influence in fulfilling the club's purpose. With the ever increasing growth of interna- tional consciousness, it is not surprising that the I. R. C. has gained in interest and membership at Brown. Strongly convinced that such crises as Formosa and Indo-China should be discussed, the members endeavored to bring these issues into the intellectual spotlight. At informal panel dis cussions pressing problems in foreign affairs were handled under the apt leadership of Hilwon, Scott, Theis, and Alexandre. Of special interest was the talk by President Wriston on the State Department, as well as an economic evaluation of the decisive situation of the Far East by Professor Killough. Through such speakers as these the club profits greatly in its understanding of our present day world. Holding nominations for new officers. 179 o 12 , President Joseph Hilton surrounded by club members. INTERNATIONAL RELATIONS CLUB Alter several years of absence. the Sociology Club returned to the Brown campus last year. The club was again dormant throughout the fall and winter of this year, but with the coming of the second semester, it experienced a revitaliza- tion. Under the direction of President Diane Deliniks and her fellow officers, Martin Schwal- berg, vice president, Shirley Morse, secretary, and Donald Newman, treasurer, the club held meet- ings, heard guest speakers, among them Prolessor Pfautz of the Sociology Department, the club's faculty advisor, and took occasional field trips to various institutions in the Providence area. In its rejuvenation, the Sociology Club was aided this year by having a large influx of interested Pembrokers. SOCIOLOGY CLUB SPIRIT 102 Key members, seated, left to right: R. Hughes, Flather, Baugh, President, Clayson, G. Hughes. Standing: Lasca, Daley, Wilenzik, Gardiner, Lary, Philippi, and Field meet Butch Bruno XV. BROWN KEY Every Thursday night a relatively small group of Juniors met in Faunce House to perform a critical function for the University. During these meetings the Brown Key was able to formulate traditional policy in regard to the vital spirit of the University as well as discuss new instru- mental means of making the organization a more eftective unit. Certainly its men come to light between the halves of a football game or at their tapping ceremonies, but that function is just a fraction of the duties it must perform. To a keen observer it may be seen meeting teams throughout the year, planning and running the Homecoming Dance Weekend, or selecting the new Vigilance Committee and incoming Key are their important functions. All these are done with the maximum ot good spirit, and such tasks as Butch Bruno XV's care are hardly trying. It appeared that this year's Key performed with the minimum of friction and did a commendable job of meeting the teams. This is due for the most part to the fine leadership of Peter Baugh and Charlie Flather as president and vice-president respectively of the organization. VIGILANCE COMMITTEE Cutler, Kohn, Tilden, Minnerly, Lange, Edwards, Nickoll, Jacobus, Taylor, White. The Vigilance Committee 1s a group of sopho- mores whose purpose is to orientate and indoc- trinate the freshman class in the life and tradi- tions of Brown. The men on this committee are carefully selected by the Brown Key on the basis of their participation in extra-curricular activities and scholastic standing during their freshman year. During the indoctrination period, the commit- teemen are recognized by V. C. arm bands and Brown varsity hats, and by personal name pins, which are shed after the first few days. The V. C.'s are directly responsible to the Brown Key, under the authority of the Cammarian Club. The appearance of a V. C. is often most dis- tasteful to the unflattered freshmen, who sees but cynicism, sedition, and sadism in his countenance, which is not uncommonly characterized by a very serious and penetrating glare. But under this glare the V. C. is ever mindful of his purposeful task of molding the incoming class into spirited Brown men. 103 104 CHEERLEADERS The Cheerleaders, Bailey, Schaffer, Jeflers, Gardiner, Dragat, Leavitt, Amhowitz. Cheerleading this year at Brown was excellent. The Rally Dance to launch the football season appeared to bear out the misquote in the Herald plug, money is not our object, but managed to be a social success, particularly enjoyed by the hosts. It was obvious from the beginning that rallies would be a strain upon both those giving them and the administration. Everyone held their breath until Monday morning when the Deans handed down their verdict. Something was bound to go, and it did, at the worst time possible Friday's rally of the Pembroke Fathers Weekend. A classic gem that evening caused an editorial upon smut among other things. There was, of course, the spirited support of the Pembroke frosh in their poster displays, and the witticisms of Head Cheerleader Amhowitz you could tell him by his derby which led to a marked enthusiasm for more cheers. But all was not gloom. Who can forget the excitement and rush at noon Saturday in antici- pation of the afternoon's game, or the ride down to Yale and the 89 degree heat in the Bowl with the cheerleaders unwilted and good as ever? At times they proved a dedicated crew and worked on such things as daring tumbling rou- tines, in which ace gymnast Bailey was a guiding light. They were seen at the Rhode Island game in Bermuda shorts led by Gardiner's flashing legs. Difficulties with the band were ironed out; they taught them the trumpet cheer and finally had the torchlight parade the night before the Homecoming game. They were the loosest group on campus, and if all else failed, one could always count on their mass half-time migration into the stands in search of their dates. In the end, however, they got their job done. Spirit was developed and kept up on the campus, and Brown songs and cheers lived on for another year. BROWN BAND Probably the most energetic men at Brown are in the band, each man striving to make his talents blend with the talents of the others and produce the desired effectthe effect, the generation of spirit to support the men on the field. The band presented a musical interlude during the half time intermissions at the home football games. It also travelled to Yale and Harvard, bringing with it the air of favor that the school extends to its teams. At Harvard, the band created quite a commotion by parodying the entire Harvard ad- ministration. In addition to sharing their abilities at the football games, the band took part in the Vet- erans' Day Parade, for which it was awarded the first prize for marching. Small groups of the band members played at the hockey games and at the football pep rallies. Another group was waiting on the steps of the Refectory at midnight when the football team returned from a victory over Lehigh. The director, Professor Martin Fischer, has de- veloped the band into a smoothly operating whole. The president of the band, Henry Juncker, aided him in the formation of the group. The band this year has become one of the best organ- ized groups on the campus. In the spring, the band was hampered by lack of members and lack of funds, and did not attain the full schedule ot concerts which it had planned on presenting. Next year the band hopes to play several concerts as a concert band, and not just limiting itself to the marching style required for football games. An important part of every Saturday afternoon. 105 RN O RaA e, 108 FOOT B A At the beginning of the 1954 football season, the Eastern sportswriters were very skeptical. The two previous Septembers they had picked Brown to be the rising power of the Ivy League com- petition. The Bruins had disappointed journalist and supporter alike. The opening game against Columbia, however, proved that the predictions had been sound, although a little premature. On the fifth play of the game, Pete Kohut hit Dave Zucconi with a picture scoring pass, and the Bruins were off to their first opening game win in five years. Controlling the ball throughout the game, Brown scored twice more on touchdowns by Captain Ev Pcarson and Kohut to emerge with an 18-7 victory. The brilliant play of the forward wall, led by center Mike Reilly, completely stifled the Columbia running attack. The opening win was achieved with hard luck playing an all-too-familiar role against Coach Alva Kelley and his team. Four of the five lead- ing backs were injured severely enough to miss the next few games. And so Brown travelled to New Haven, and without the services of T. D. Thompson, Vit Piscuskas, Ev Pearson, and Dave Zucconi took the field against Jordan Oliver's highly ranked Yale eleven. It was 88 degrees on the floor of the Bowl and the breaks were bad and the officiating rather unusual. But a cour- ageous though inexperienced group of running backs combined with the magnificent passing and signal calling ol Pete Kohut to put on one of the most exciting oridiron shows of the season. Thwarted twice in the first period while on the verge of scoring, and behind 6-0, the Bruins man- ufactured a touchdown on their third offensive surge when Kohut connected on a 15 yard pass play to Bill Cronin. Yale then built up a two touchdown advantage, but Brown came right back. Archie Williams broke loose for a 40 vard run to the Eli nine, and on the next play, Kohut connected to Harry Josephson in the end zone. The see-saw battle raged on, Yale scoring their final touchdown midway through the third pe riod. From this point on the game was all Brown. Up in the air at Harvard. Kohut engineered a 68 yard touchdown march climaxed when Williams broke over from the two. Striking through the air again, Kohut hit Pete Bartuska with two successive passes, the latter one for 11 yards and the score. The Bruin quarterback ended the day having completed 10 out of 17 aerials for 155 yards and three touch- downs, but although Brown matched Yale touch- down for touchdown, the inability to kick extra points proved disastrous. Final: Yale 26, Brown 24. Scoring three times in the first twenty-one minutes of play, Brown humbled the University ol Rhode Island 35-0. Pete Kohut continued his aerial wizardry but received equally outstanding support on the ground from an inside-outside combination of Vin Jazwinski and Archie Wil- Kohut sneaks over. liams, the latter scoring twice. The great Ram back Pat Abbruzzi was completely contained by the big Brown line in a game marred by the near-fatal head injury received by Les Peavy. On a happier note, the Bruins broke the extra point jinx by being successful on all five conversion attempts. In the most thrilling of all thrilling Home- coming games, Brown met Princeton on a field made sloppy by sporadic downpours. A capacity crowd saw the Bruins start the scoring early in the first period with Kohut pitching to his fa- vorite target, Harry Josephson. Minutes later, Dick Martin raced an intercepted aerial deep into Bruin territory to set up the first of two quick Princeton touchdowns. Brown fought back to take a 14-13 lead as Williams and Jazwinski ground out yardage, Jaz going over from the two. At this point, Tiger star, Royce Flippin, picked up the visitors' single wing attack and led them to another score with a magnificent array of run- ning and passing. And so with two minutes re- maining in the fourth period, Brown was six points behind and faced a fourth and one situa- tion on the Princeton 41. Captain Pearson sliced off tackle. Suddenly there was daylight, then Pete Bartuska was cutting down the last two Tiger defenders, and then Pearson was in the end-zone. Before the pandemonium had completely sub- sided, Jazwinski calmly booted the all important extra point, and Brown had won the top Ivy League game of the year, 21-20. A Josephson special. The following Saturday turned into a night- mare as the now highly ranked Bruins stumbled through sixty minutes of unbelievable mistakes against a lired up Temple cleven Led by their outstanding fullback, T'ex Robinson, the Owls played with flawless precision and capitalized on Brown's overconfidence. Even as the Bruins failed to score time after time while deep in enemy territory, the home supporters as well as the team seemed to anticipate victory. Ev Pearson scored two touchdowns on a two yard plunge and a 17 yard pass from Dom Balough, but victory never came. Temple startled everyone, 19-14. Regaining much of their earlier form, the Bruins traveled to Bethlehem, Pennsylvania, where they humbled Lehigh, 34-6. It was an after- noon of spectacular runs as Thompson, Piscuskas, Williams, Pearson, and Zucconi scored single touchdowns. The previously air-minded Brown squad accumulated 319 yards along the ground with Jazwinski and Williams doing most of the heavy ball carrying. The Bruin line completely outplayed the Engineers, with John O'Brien and Mike Reilly leading the crushing downfield blocking. T'he overture. Into tigerland. Williams scores against Rhode Island. In the Springfield game, Brown once again showed its ability to strike quickly. On the first play from scrimmage, Archie Williams broke off right guard and galloped 68 yards for a touch- down. Minutes later, the crowd was thrilled by Pete Kohut's 85 yard runback of an intercepted pass for another score. The outclassed visitors found it impossible to stop the Bruins as Williams and Pearson led a razzle-dazzle ground attack and Kohut unleashed a barrage of aerials. Spectacular plays were in evidence all afternoon being cli- maxed by one-in-a-million catch by Harry Josephson. The Bruin wingman grabbed a Kohut pass over his shoulder while seemingly running away from the ball, then sliced into the end-zone for another tally. This powerful offensive show- ing, Brown 40, Springfield 7, came appropriately on the day when Fritz Pollard, one of Brunonia's greatest all-time stars, was honored for his elec- tion to the National Football Hall of Fame. As 27,000 spectators filed into the Harvard Stadium, the newsboys peddled their late edi- tions, the headlines of which tabbed Brown a 114 point favorite. The tempo of the game was exposed at the beginning. Ev Pearson took the ball on the first play and sliced 74 yards off right guard to the Harvard 19. On the next play, Kohut The last seat left. fumbled an attempted pitch-out which the Crim- son recovered. Displaying a beautiful assimila- tion of single-wing plays, Harvard marched the length of the field for a score. The Bruins bounced back with Kohut throwing near-perfect aerials and Piscuskas plunging for sizable gains. Pearson cut off tackle from the eight and the score was 7-7. From this point, Harvard rolled to two touchdowns and seemed the inevitable victor. Their aggressive line led by Captain Tim Anderson and All-American Bill Meigs stalled all Brown offensive efforts. And then it was the fourth quarter and suddenly Zipper I'hompson stormed over from the Harvard thirteen. The scoreboard clock moved at an increasing rate as Kohut suddenly unleashed a devastating passing attack, with Bartuska and Josephson his favorite targets. A triple-reverse play with Zucconi carry- ing netted 40 yards; then more passes; then Zuc- coni over from the four. The Bruins had to be satisfied with a 21-21 tie. It was cold and dark on Thanksgiving morning as Brown played host to a powerful Colgate cleven. A Bruin offense that piled up a surprising three-touchdown lead in the first half bogged down in the second, and the home forces had to stave off a last quarter rally to win 18-14. Harry Josephson clinched the final Brown victory of the 1954 season with a timely interception of a Colgate pass with only minutes remaining in the ball game. The Bruins opened the contest Jaz not to be denied. Zucconi running down the Crimson's Cowles. Lv Pearson-second in Ivy League scoring. 4 B e L with a roar as guard Bill Klaess blocked a Raider kick, scooped it up, and raced into the end-zone with the game but three minutes old. A Pearson plunge and a Kohut pass to Zucconi gave Brown an 18-0 advantage at intermission. Colgate re- turned to the field a determined team and quickly posted two scores. Had not the Bruin defense risen to its full potential, the year's schedule would have ended on a sour note. Instead, the best of Alva Kelley's teams concluded their season as the generally accepted best all-round squad in the Ivy League. Post season plaudits were awarded to Pistol Pete Kohut and Harry Josephson who both re- ceived honorable mention on the A. P. All- American team. Three BruinsKohut, Vin Jaz- winski, and tackle Jim McGuinnesswere named to the first string All-Ivy League team, with Jo- sephson making second string, and Bill Klaess, Bill Harris, Mike Reilly, Ev Pearson, and Archie Williams receiving honorable mention. The All- East team roster was bolstered by the names of Kohut, Jazwinski, Klaess, McGuinness, Joseph- son, Harris, and Reilly. Statistics do not lie, and if one examines them, the greatness of the '564 Brown football squad is even more evident. The team averaged a resounding 25 points per game, leading the Ivy League in total offense with a per game average of 334 yards.

Senior end, Harry Josephson, led the league in pass receiving, his efforts including three scoring catches. In punting, Josephson was second in Ivy competition with a 38.1 yard aver- age.

We review the team's record, and it is an ex- cellent one. It seems amazing that Brown, al- though completely dominating Ivy League play, did not finish in first place. The explanation is quite simple. Under present league rules, the Bruins did not play as many Ivy games as did Yale and Cornell who tied for first place. And so Brown, with a better record than the loop leaders, was awarded a third place. Beginning with the 1955 season, formalized Ivy League play will commence with each school playing an equal number of loop contests. We look for this year's seeming injustice to be rectified.

They're called the Bruins too, and on the same Saturday that Brown accomplished its greatest victory over Princeton with a conversion that really counted, the Los Angles team rolled up a 72-0 score against a fairly good Stanford club.

The first victory came against the University of Connecti- cut midway through the season, with the Bruin booters emerging on the long end of a 3-1 score. At Brandeis the squad downed the Judges by a lopsided 8-0 count. Perhaps the high spot of the year was the dramatic, overtime conquest over Lowell Textile in the last game. Brown played its best game of the season in overturning the once beaten, highly rated Lowell outfit 1-0. Brown opened its schedule against Wesleyan away, absorbing a 2-0 loss in a poor game. The Bruins dropped the next contest by an identical score to a powerful Yale team. Williams and Harvard downed the home booters in succession. FRESHMAN The Freshman soccer squad this year compiled a 5-2-1 record. The New Bedford game was the Cubs' first of the season, and the offense was not yet coordinated. Brown was the aggressor throughout the game, but New Bedford poked in the one and only goal with only eight seconds left. In the Harvard game Brown broke through to score the first goal, but Harvard came on to score two, giving them a 2-1 victory. Diman Vo- cational later played the Cubs to a 2-2 stalemate. The UConn victory was followed by a poorly played, one-sided loss to M. I. T. Between the 8-0 Brandeis win and the exciting 1-0 Lowell vic- tory were sandwiched a close 1-2 loss to the Uni- versity of Massachusetts, and a lopsided defeat at the hands of an unbeaten Dartmouth club. Although the team had a few fine ball players, it was unfortunately and insurmountably troubled by thin reserves. Coach Kennaway was forced to play most of his starting team for the full 88 minutes, and while the first half of every game was spirited and fast, the second half the team invariably tired. Bad luck plagued the team as well: two starters were lost to the squad through injuries in the latter part of the season. OCCER New Bedford Vocation, M. I. T., Andover, University of Connecticut, and Nichols Junior College met the Brown freshmen at the Bruins best. The Andover game, the team's first victory, was won in an overtime 3-2. M. 1. T. played well but was outclassed. The final score ended up 2-0. University of Connecticut suffered a defeat by a score of 4-2. New Bedford Vocational found it impossible to score, and went down to defeat 3-0. Nichols Varsity was the team's last victim and was handed a 3-1 loss.

FRESHMAN FOOTBALL Stan Ward's first year as a Brown freshman football coach was by no means without reward. Although the Cubs suftered a letdown from previ- ous years, they captured two of their five con- tests, and made decided threats in the other three. Coach Ward's main task lay in developing his backfield which lacked experience, but over- flowed with ability. The line, however, contain- ing a number of varsity prospects, possessed greater depth and experience. The squad opened against U. R. I. at Brown Stadium. A tight battle was climaxed by a des- peration pass from Bill Starke, the regular quar- terback, which provided the margin for a 20-13 Brown victory. The Yale tilt displayed another line battle which went to the Bulldogs late in the second half by a score of 12-0. The following week, the Cubs faced Harvard on a rain-soaked field. The Crimson were contained throughout the first half by the Brown line, but their pass- ing attack, eventually downed the Bruins 20-0. Victory was never closer than at Dartmouth, where Ward's charges failed to protect an early lead and lost by a score of 7-6. The thrill of the year came with the final game, in which the University of Massachusetts, riding the crest of an impressive winning streak, invaded the sta- dium. The Bruins shifted both line and backfield into high gear and rolled the visitors 34-18. The touchdown parade included an 88 yard run by Charlie Vincent, a recently promoted substitute. The win was a most appropriate ending to a season in which perseverance was badly needed to overcome inexperience. - Front row, left to right: Roche, Fulton, Kelly, Orr.

The strong Northeastern squad scored a 15-50 shutout vic- tory over Brown. Keith Patton, a promising soph- omore, was the first Brown runner to finish. The Brown harriers then engaged Yale and the Uni- versity of Connecticut in a triangular meet at New Haven. The Bruins placed third in this meet with a score of 62 behind Yale 29 and UConn 31. Jim Corrigan, another promising sophomore member ol the squad, placed eighth In a repetition of the Northeastern meet, Brown lost to Harvard by the shutout score of 15-50. Keith Patton was again the first Brown runner to cross the finish line. Although Jim Corrigan placed third, Brown lost a close de- cision to Dartmouth 22-37. The harriers suffered their fifth and sixth losses of the season at the hands of the University of Rhode Island and the University of Massachusetts respectively. Jim Cor- rigan finished fourth in the U. R. I. meet and third against Massachusetts to pace the team. The final dual meet of the season was similar to the initial one. Brown sustained a loss from Providence College by the shutout score of 15-50. Captain Charlie Flather was the first Brown man to finish. In the Heptagonal Championships, held at New York City's Van Courtland Park, the Brown harriers could do no better than finish last in a field of ten teams. In the concluding meet, the New England Championships held at Franklin Park in Boston, Brown was confined to fifteenth and last place as a strong M. I. T. team finished first. 125 SKI TEAM The ski team of Brown University is probably one of the least known athletic groups on cam- pus. However, it is one of the most active, for almost any week end there can be found a Brown team member on the slopes competing with representatives of such schools as Tufts, Boston University, Northeastern, Princeton, Army and many others. The team gets only a small amount of money to sustain its members so they are limited in scope as to travel, uniforms, a coach, and other Sumner Young such things. Thesc limitations were added to by a mild winter here in Rhode Island and nearby areas, which forced the skiers to travel long dis- tances to find snow. Brown has one of the better skiers in small col- lege ski circles in team captain Ray Fox. In the downhill and giant slalom races, Fox will always be at or near the top. The Brown team enters only two events, because it can only practice on week ends, whereas it takes daily practice to be in condition for jumping and cross-country, events which the team does not enter. Dave Willis, Martin Imm, Peter Rosenfeld, and Sumner Young, all veteran skiers, made up the nucleus of this year's team which was headed by Fox. Willis, a junior, will be returning next year along with Imm and Rosenfeld. Much can be expected of them next year. Support for these three starters will be found in Joe Joslin, Pete Halboren, Courtney Jones, Donn Downing, and others from the Brown Ski Club. Additional aid will be rendered by incom- ing freshmen who are allowed to participate their first year, as the ski team is not a recognized university sport. Look for a sharp Brown ski team next year. Ray Fox in Down-hill run. Dan Keefe tries to tickle the twines of the Eli. Prov. Journal Photo. HOCKEY In the balloting for the all Ivy League team, Brown placed three men on the first team and two on the second. Co-captain Bob Borah was chosen at left defense while Dan Keefe and Pete Tutless were chosen at left wing and center re- spectively. Junior defense man, Russ Kingman, and second line center, Don Thompson, were selected on the second team. In the All East Selec- tions, Russ Kingman was chosen on the first team, while Borah and Keefe were second team selec- tions. Keefe with 19 points, Tutless with 18 and Thompson with 12 wound up second, third and hifth in that order in the Ivy scoring. Keefe amassed a total of 45 points as did Pete Tutless in the Eastern League. Srown got away to an impressive start in De- cember by beating Boston University 4-3 and Northeastern 8-3 in the first two games. Keefe led the Bruin attack against Northeastern with four goals. In the next same, an inspired Provi- dence College sextet dumped the Bruins 5-3. After a two weeks' layoff, Brown traveled to Bos- ton to play in the annual Bian Pat Tournament, meeting Boston U. in the first game. Brown won 30, led by Russ Kingman who scored two coals. In the St. Lawrence game, Brown started off fast but faded the final period to lose 6-3. The follow- ing night, a strong McGill squad edaed the Bruins 4-3. 127 Losses to B. C., Yale and Princeton within the space of ten days was demoralizing to the team, but things were due for a change as the second semester started. Brown next took the ice against Harvard. Brown with a little luck in the overtime could have won, but had to settle for a tie. This game was voted the game of the year in the East. Dan Keefe led the attack with two goals. Brown then routed P. C. 10-5. Wins over Northeastern, Yale and Dartmouth twice and Princeton followed. The Brown-Prince- ton game, a high scoring affair, 11-8, showed 1n- Photo. dications of the revamped Bruins. Keefe, Tutless, and Thompson led the attack with two goals each. Brown defeated Dartmouth twice4-1 and 11-2. The victory at Hanover was one of the best games the Bruins played. Tutless and Keefe com- bined for seven goals, Keefe scoring five while Tutless got two goals and five assists. Yale, now firmly entrenched in the league cellar, gave the Bruins a scare, but Brown won 3-2. Kingman, Thompson, and Keefe scored for Brown. In the season's finale, Brown lost a 6-5 decision to B. C. in Boston Gardens. Tutless led the attack with three goals. Co-Captain Halvorsengoalie. Co-Captain Borah-All-Tvy defenseman. Action at the Audito- rium. Prov. Journal Kingman scores. Prou.

BASKETBALL Brown opened its campaign by dropping a close one to Amherst 71-70. Captain Ed Tooley started his spectacular season off by scoring 39 points and setting a free throw record in doing so, by sinking 23 out of 36 charity shots. The Bruins got oft to a fast start in the Ivy League by trimming Harvard 51-38 on the fine performances of Bill Arnold and Ray Malkiewicz. Yale was their next victim whom they beat 72-61 with Tooley getting 24 points. The University of Rhode Island then defeated Brown 51-48. Next the Bears met defeat at the hands of Cornell and Syracuse. Against Syracuse, the team played with- out the services of injured Ed Tooley, and did a commendable job going to a 74-60 defeat. During the Christmas holidays the quintet took third place in the New England Tournament at Connecticut. The tourney was highlighted by Capt. Ed Tooley's receiving the most valuable player award. The second half of the season began badly with defeats by U. R. I., Harvard, Yale and Penn. However, the Bruins bounced back momentarily by downing Tufts 88-66.

Providence College took a close one 66-62 despite Tooley's 25 points and Campisi's smart ball handling. Northeastern edged out a 100-94 win in overtime. Capt. Tooley did more than his share by scoring 34 points. Two records fell against Northeastern when Brown scored over 90 points and Tooley collected 32 rebounds. Princeton eked out a 57-b5 win and powerful Penn defeated Brown again 66-61. Upsetting Dartmouth was one of the high- lights of the season for Dartmouth itself was labeled the upset team. After losing a thrilling overtime battle to Cornell, Brown bounced back to defeat Providence College 79-78. In this double overtime marathon Popp scored 20 points and ball handled well. The campaign ended with losses to Columbia and Princeton. The team ended up with a 6-16 record despite the individual brilliance of Capt. Ed Tooley who averaged 16.7 points per game and collected 436 rebounds which placed him 11th in the nation. Tooley was well rewarded for his stellar all- round performance by receiving the Woody- Grimshaw memorial trophy for the second time and being appointed to All Ivy League and All New England teams.

WRESTLING Lhe wrestlers under the able tutoring of Coach Andy Anderton were judeed by many to be the best wrestling team that Brown has ever had. T'he overall record was 8-11 with a perfect record in lvy League competition. Moreover, the team was the first wrestling team in Brown's history to beat Yale, Harvard, and Princeton in one season. Besides winning the meets mentioned above, the matmen also defeated Columbia, Penn, Connecticut, Wesleyan and Springfield. Complet- ing the season was a tie with Hofstra and a loss to Rutgers. Leading off lor Brown in the 123 pound class was John Baird. Virtually untested last year, John Front row, left to right: Baird, Yatsu, Roche, Smith, Muse. Back row: Anderton, coach., Harrell, Samsel, Alexander, Seifert, Wilenzik, Foley, Gordon, mgr. Captain Harrell immediately made his presence felt winning his first four matches. Frank Yatsu at the 130 1b. level did not finish his career with one of his better records, but was invaluable for the team spirit he exhibited. Brown's outstanding sophomore Frank Smith wrestled regularly at 137. Showing the makings of a champion, Frank won seven while losing one close 8-7 decision. Joe Muse who took second in the Easterns was the second Brown man ever to reach the finals. Joe lost to a national champion, the out- standing wrestler in the tournament. Weighing in at 147, Joe led the Brown team in pins with four. Joe also won the wrestling trophy for total points during the season. Jim Harrell, the 157 lb. man, was the spark- plug of the team, finished with a 6-1-1 record. Captain and true leader, Jim Harrell was the driving force which made this year's team a great one. Buzz Samsel was having his best year being voted the most outstanding wrestler in the New England A. A. U. tournament, when he broke his ankle which may have cost the team an un- defeated season. The plaudits for the year must go to Don Seifert for his clutch performances in the un- limited class against Yale and Hofstra, his de- cisions being the difference between victory and defeat. The remaining members of the New England championship team are Gus White, John Alex- ander, and Pete Roche. White and Alexander were regular 177 pounders while Roche turned in two important victories at 147 lbs. Yatsu with the advantage. The gun goes, and the race starts. Prov. Journal photo. SWIMMING Faced with only four returning lettermen from last year's squad, Coach Joe Watmough was forced to build this year's swimming team around these men. Filling the place of All-American Ralph Brisco alone would be a gigantic undertaking. The credit for the team having even the scant success which it did have was due to Coach Watmough whose long experience in handling swimmers paid off more than once. An outstanding example of Watmough's bril- liance was Brown's win over Columbia 45-38 in the first meet of the season. Led by co-captains Dick Fogelson and Tony Randazzo, Brown faced a Columbia team of equal strength, but by jug- gling the lineup and throwing the New York team off balance, Brown was able to stay within reach of the Lion until the final relay. In this event, the Brown team of Fogelson, Hohnson, Martin and Kane got off to a lead and maintained it, thus giving Brown the necessary eight points for the win. Following losses to the Harvard and Yale teams, each team a national power in swimming, Brown wound up the first half of the season with Co-captain Randazzo a 2-2 record by deleating Holy Cross 60-24. Afrer first semester exams, the team ran into stiff com- petition from opponents, but wound up with an impressive win over M. I. T. for a 3-7 season record. Dick Fogelson was a continual winner through- out the season showing his ability in either dis- tance events or sprints. Once he was even called upon to swim the individual medley and he came through by placing in this unfamiliar event. Fogelson could often be counted on for two vic- tories in a meet and only twice did he come home without one. In the New Englands, in which Brown took a mediocre sixth, Fogelson copped 4 filth in the 290 vard freestyle Next year he can be looked to with even more promise. In the sprints, Joel Kane and Andy Martin were consistent point getters while Phil O'Brien and Art Seott captured places in the breaststroke and backstroke. Randazzo was much improved in his diving this vear giving Brown strength in this event while Sophomore Ira Levin proved 4 valuable number two man to Fogelson in the 220.

FRESHMAN HOCKEY Nineteen fifty-five was indeed a barren year as far as freshman hockey was concerned. It seemed that in every instance the cub puck- chasers were vastly outmanned and that when the team managed to stay in contention throughout a game, the yearlings would drop it in the closing minutes of play. There were several losses by one goal and two losses as the result of overtime play. The team was fortunate in that they had the services of a good goalie, Harry Batchelder, and also a tough defenseman in Kevit Gook. However the outstanding performer on the squad was Rod Dashnaw. Dashnaw managed to score at least once in every game and was credited with the hat trick a couple of times. Ineligibility also plagued the freshman squad, for after mid-semesters the team was manned by only nine men. Among the victims of this age-old nemesis was Red Benson, a good scoring wing- man on the first line. His loss was hard felt for it necessitated a great deal of juggling by Coach Don Whiston between the first and second lines. The one victory of the year was over Yale at New Haven. The game was close all the way and with the score tied at two all, Rod Dashnaw drilled one home with fifteen seconds to clinch the victory. The team fought hard all the way and at the close of the season it showed a marked improve- ment. The most noticeable individual improve- ments were made by Higo Manelli and Ludlow Miller whose spirit and determination contrib- uted a great deal to their play. FRESHMAN BASKETBALL Under the auspices of Jack Heffernan, the Brown freshmen had a very successful season. The Bear Cubs proved a well-balanced team as they won twelve out of eighteen games. With high-scoring Joe Tebo and Captain Bob Miller handling the backboard duties and Alaimo, Andronico, and Nuttall under the boards, the Bruin frosh developed into a scrappy outfit and a tough team to beat. The frosh got oft to a good start with victories over Harvard and Yale. Tebo and Andronico led the way against the Cantabs with their shoot- ing and rebounding. Against the Elis, Tebo netted 26 and Alaimo 18. Of the six defedts the Cubs experienced, half of them came in the next three games. They lost to a taller and more ex- perienced Quonset team and then they dropped two to the Rhode Island freshmen. In the first R. I. encounter, Brown dropped a real thriller despite Joe Tebo's 30 points and Captain Miller's 20. With Nuttall, Alaimo, and McCreery re- bounding magnificently it seemed as if the Cubs might pull it out, but the R. I. frosh were not to be denied as they eked out a 92-90 victory. The freshmen snapped out of their 3-game los- ing streak and went on to win their next five games at the expense of Harvard, Nichols Jr. College, Worcester Academy, Tufts, and Mori- son Academy and Leicester Jr. College. Dartmouth pinned another loss on the Bruin five by edging out a close 65-64 triumph. How- ever, with Tebo, Andronico, and O'Brien scoring heavily, the Cubs swamped the Providence Bible Institute 91-36. Dartmouth again proved a neme- sis to the freshmen by defeating them 89-70 in spite of Alaimo's 24 points and Tebo's 21. In their final game, the Brown freshmen avenged their earlier loss to P.C. with a 74-70 victory. Front row, left to right: Prouty, Andronico, Tebo, Miller, Rauth, Blakely.

Under the leadership of Coach Andy Anderton and Captain Pete Howard, the Freshman wres- tling team enjoyed a highly successful season, com- piling a record of seven wins and one loss. The cubs won easily over the Wesleyan frosh and took a close meet from East Providence High School before Christmas. Following vacation, they turned back Exeter, the Harvard freshmen, Rhode Island secondary school all-stars, Worces- ter Academy, and Andover in that order. In the final meet of the season, the cubs lost to a very powerful Yale freshman team. The only Brown man to win his match was Gummings, who com- pleted the season undefeated. With the second best team in twelve years, the freshman swimming team compiled a respectable 5-5 record. Except for the two traditionally strong teams, Yale and Harvard, the yearlings made im- pressive showings against all rivals beating Dean Academy, Moses Brown, M.LT. St. George's School, and Connecticut while losing very close meets to Springfield and Andover. Led by Capt. Al Chapman, the team will give much strength to next year's varsity. Chapman set freshman rec- ords in the 100 yard backstroke and the 150 yard individual medley, while Bill Riddle set the rec- ord in the 100 yard breast stroke. Other standouts were Dave Graham, Steve Boston, Gene Whitman and Rick Montgomery. , Bloom, Cummings. Back row: Grebstein, Rockwell, Front row, lett to right: Riddle, Chapman, Whitman, Howiet, Wilson.

BASEBALL Captain Lou Murgo 139 140 Sporadic might be the best word for describing the Brown baseball team early in the year. When the pitchers were sharp, the hitters couldnt con- nect, and when the hitters were hitting the pitch- ers didn't have much of anything. But after a mid-season change in the line-up, the Bruin team started to fulfill their pre-season promise. Incorporated into the year's schedule was a five game Southern training trip during which the team beat Virginia, Richmond, and Mt. St. Mary's, but then found the going rough and lost to Duke and North Carolina. After Spring vacation, the team lost a heart- breaker to Amherst. Brown held an early six run advantage, but dropped the contest 8-6. The Uni- versity of Connecticut added to the growing mis- ery by shutting out the Bruins 4-0. The Brown forces rallied and defeated U.R.I. 3-2 with Frank Rego pitching an excellent game. Harry Josephson clouted a home run, and Vin Jazwinski sparkled in the field while also con- tributing two hits. The following two games, the first league en- counters, saw Penn fighting to gain a 1-1 tie in ten innings, and Cornell coming from a 6-0 deficit to win 7-6. At this point, Coach Lefty Lefebvre changed his lineup slightly, moving Captain Lou Murgo from shortstop to do the backstopping chores and Lefty and Lou take their cuts. putting Bob Popp in as his replacement. Dick Allsbrook, previously untried, became the number one pitcher. In his first start against Holy Cross, Allsbrook gave up two runs in the first inning, but settled down and held Holy Cross scoreless for the remainder of the game. Bad luck plagued the team while playing two of the better teams in the East. Josephson pitched a very good ball came, allowing one run to Princeton; but his teammates collected only four hits. Allsbrook gave up two runs to Navy, but he was the victim of only five hit support. It was now Brown's turn to go on a winning streak. The Bruins won a close one from U.R.I. 1-0. Lou Murgo's clutch single in the tenth inning was the clincher. Undoubtedly, the Columbia game was the sea- son's best. Dick Allsbrook was red hot, pitching a one hitter and retiring the last sixteen men in order. Fleet centerfielder Ben Thomas was the big man on offense getting two hits and scoring the lone run of the game. The Bruin team continued its winning ways upsetting Harvard 7-3. Josephson pitched the game and picked up his first win of the season. The opening game of the Providence College series went to the Friars 4-2 despite some fine stickwork by Dave Zucconi who got three hits. However Brown came right back and closed the season with two wins beating Dartmouth 5-0 be- hind Allsbrook, and P.C. 5-0 behind Josephson. Phil Nash, an outstanding performer all season long, closed out his career collecting three hits. 141 TRACK Brown opened its Spring track season against Harvard on May 8th, and, despite the first places taken by Vin Jazwinski, Billy Reid, and Don Seifert, the team met defeat, 110-30. Against Rhode Island, Seifert won both the hammer and the javelin. Charlie McAllister and Tom Tritsch- ler each took firsts, but the Bruins lost 90-45. Although Brown took six first places against Dartmouth, the visitors proved too strong, scoring 83 points to Brown's 56. Bill Wasicko won the shot, Seifert the hammer, and Jazwinski the jave- lin; in the running events, Reid took the mile, and Tom Donaldson placed first in the 100 and 200-yard dashes. Really, old man!

The team was steadily improving, and reaping valuable experience from these successive discour- aging setbacks; each week saw another new name added to the ranks of the first place winners. In the final dual meet of the season, Brown played host to Providence College, and the home team displayed all of its latent power in a united scor- ing effort. Again Tom Donaldson gained two first places, as did Don Seifert and Billy Reid, and they were joined in this spree by Mike Reilly, Jazwinski, and McAllister, each of whom won his event. Brown amassed a total of 76 points, while Providence College scored 60. Brown was unable to score in the Heptagonals, but Don Seifert, a consistent performer and a bright spot throughout the regular season, took second place in the hammer in the New Englands and in the IC4A's. As a whole, the team lacked depth and balance, but Coach Ivan Fuqua, in developing his Fresh- man squads during the last two seasons, has con- centrated his efforts to remedy this difficulty, and he looks forward to the results of this planning in the ensuing years. Seifert lets go. 143 Ray moves in as ball balances on net. TENNI The Brown Varsity tennis team of 1954 set a number of records. It won more matches 9 than any team as far back as 1930. The percentage of matches won and lost nine and two surpassed all others in the past 25 years with the exception of the 1938-39 team. The number one doubles team of Doc Houk and Roger King went through the regular collegiate secason undefeated. In doing so they scored the only point scored on the Elis by any opponent north of the Mason-Dixon Line. Doc Houk, of Sea Island, Georgia, played num- ber one for the Varsity and won 10 out of 11 matches. His one loss was to Bill Cranston of Yale by the score of 6-4, 6-2. At the conclusion of the season, the team played in the New England In- tercollegiates. The upset of the tournament oc- curred when Brown's unseeded No. 4 man, Joe Simpson, trounced 7th seeded Tom Kerr of Boston 6-4, 6-1. Third seeded Houk went to the quarter finals where he was eliminated Eli captain Captain John Doc Houk Webb Ray Dick Reskind. With King, Houk went to the semi-finals in doubles where they lost to the even- tual winners. Houk has lost but three matches during his tennis career here, and is probably the best match player and competitor to attend Brown during the last quarter century. King and Captain Bob Kramer alternated at two and three during most of the season. Despite a poor start, King finished with a 7-3 match rec- ord. Throughout his three years of Varsity com- petition, he was paired on the number one doubles team. Kramer, a senior, won eight and lost two, hav- ing the best record on the team. Together with sophomore Joe Simpson, Kramer reached the quarter-final round of the New England Inter- collegiates. We thus had two of the 8 teams in that round, and this too was unique in Brown's history. Others who contributed to the success of the team were Cal Woodhouse, Hap Castleberry, and Richard O'Hearn. Next season looks bright, with Captain-elect Houk, newcomer George Kirk- patrick a finalist in last fall's Exton tournament, Nat Green, ineligible last year, and Joe Simpson returning.

Brown started off the season with an upset vic- tory over the supposedly strong Boston College team. Captain Norm Anderton and Bill Klaess proved to be the mainstays of the Brown upset. Having little success against University of Con- necticut and Harvard, the Bruins came back strong and upset highly favored Holy Cross. After the victory over Holy Cross, the golf team went undefeated, but had a close call at the hands of Tufts; the match ending in a tie. The close of the season brought an unsuccess- ful trip to Dartmouth for the Eastern Intercol- legiate Golf tournament. While George Midwood and Norman Anderton were the ranking mem- bers of the team, Bill Klaess managed to win the most matches. All in all, the Brown golfers pro- vided their opponents with more than sufficient opposition to make their record a winning one. Anxiety on the sidelines. ACROSSE The Brown Lacrosse Club completed the 1954 season by splitting eight games. After losing to Tabor Academy, the team beat Worcester Poly- tech, Dean Academy and the University of Rhode Island by substantial scores of 8-4, 21-0, and 12-3, respectively. For Spring Weekend the squad waged a thriller with Nichols Junior College, losing 12-11. A trip to Massachusetts proved disastrous as the Bears dropped a squeaker to the University of Massa- chusetts and were soundly beaten by Amherst 19-2. The season ended with a 10-2 victory over Lowell Textile. Outstanding freshmen Ben and Web Janssen provided the scoring punch, while Captain Pete Philippi spatked the team by setting up many scores. Action in the Nichols game. 148 Launching the shell. The Brown Crew, in its seventh year of organi- zation, continued to show the progress that has built the sport to one of the most popular on the campus. During the season of 1953-54 more boys participated than in any previous year, and as a result a freshman crew that exceeded any of its predecessors was turned out. This crew spells the improvement that has occurred over the years. For the second year Brown crews traveled to Florida during the Spring vacation for ten days. The crews taced sharp competition from experi- enced Rollins College and Florida Southern Uni- versity and showed well. Meanwhile the freshmen practiced long and hard on the icy waters of the Seekonk. The formal racing season was highlighted by this impressive freshman crew. In two races the freshmen were nosed out by Dartmouth by the slim margin of two feet, and lost a well rowed race to Harvard. The Bruin varsity, after a fine The glide down the Seekonk. Preparations for an important race. season in 1953, easily defeated Clark University, and then was defeated by Amherst, La Salle, and Dartmouth. The extreme popularity ol the crew races showed as two thousand spectators watched Dartmouth win back one of the oldest cups in rowing competition, The Atlanta Cup. During Spring Weekend festivities, the green shores of the Seekonk were covered by crowds of crew enthusiasts. The coming season should be a successful one for the Brown Crew. The nucleus of a strong freshman boat is on hand together with a group of experienced veterans. The crew starts off. Under the very capable guidance of Directox Jack Heftfernan, the Brown University Intramur- al Program makes it possible for all students to participate in some form of organized athletics. Many former prep school and high school ath- letes have retired from the varsity ranks in lieu ol intramural competition. The program is set up in two main leagues; the fraternities, and the dormitories and clubs. The fraternities are fur- ther subdivided into the Spartan and Athenean Leagues which vie for the Lanpher and Swain Cups. The dormitories and clubs are in competi- tion for the College Trophy and Browning Cup. Playoffs between league champions are held at the end of each sports season. Outstandingbasketball team-Air Force. INTRAMURAL At the termination of the 1954 softball season the outstanding school teams were the Air Force and Lambda Chi Alpha. The '54 football cham- pions were Lambda Chi, who went on to defeat the Providence College intramural winners for the city title. In basketball, a powerful Air Force quintet took the laurels, while Tower Club ended up with the volleyball trophy. The officials at all contests except champion- ship playoffs were athletes from varsity teams. Although the caliber of play was not always pro- fessional, good sportsmanship reigned and all members of the student body that participated in the program had a lot of enjoyment while getting their exercise.

SKI CLUB Unless out and out athletes, most students have to enjoy fall and spring sports from the sidelines or in the grandstands. To be sure, a certain amount of pleasure is derived from being just a spectator, but the true sportsman craves partici- pation. The winter months come, and with them snow, ice, and crisp weather. Around the end of November, a large group of Brown men and Pem- brokers send home for their warm clothing, skis, and boots, put an article in the Brown Daily Her- ald, and finally get together for the first meeting of the Ski Club. From this point on, pretty nearly everything happens from semi-professional per- formances on the packed trails of the cold coun- try, to that mysterious entity known as the initia- tion. The end result is most gratifying, for here is true sport that can be participated in and en- joyed by everyone from the scared beginner to the confident veteran. Schussing down the merry slopes of northern New England, this year's edition of the Ski Club enjoyed one of the most successful seasons in many, many years. Under the inspiring and ca- pable leadership of Dave Willis, the members of the club were able to experience the actual thrills ol the sport, and also enjoy the many benefits drawn from the advice of professional skiers. Helpful hints were also drawn from a series of ski movies. Led by such well-known skiers as Willis, Jerry Bitting, and Courtney Jones, as well as Pembro- kers Sally Kingman, Ginny Findlay, and Bonnie Echenbeck, this year's Ski Club held the most successful mid-year's trip in many seasons. Ac- tually this cvent is the only oft-campus affair that is arranged and controlled by the executive com- mittee ol the club, but it certainly is not the full extent of their program. The club's meetings are open to all, and tennis shoes are as welcome a sight as ski boots. Often, professional skiers are the guest speakers, and give Members of the executive committee meet to plan ski weekend. the members important aids to correct bad habits of form. Following the meetings, there is always a certain amount of kibitzing going on while the members enjoy refreshments. The crowning event of the season, as has been said before, is undoubtedly the four day trip taken between semesters. It is the climax of much planning and preparation, and is discussed for weeks afterwards. Drawing upon the entire stu- dent bodies of Brown and Pembroke, the Ski Club managed to enlist over a hundred students to completely take over a mountain lodge. Ca- BROWN RIF After completing several years of competition in which they compiled very credible records, the Brown University Rifle Team finished the 1954- 1955 season with a rather disappointing record of but two wins as against seven losses. The team roster included mostly veterans such as Captain Ralph Lary, Loren Buzz Samsel, Dick Wil- liams, Bill Jacobsmeyer, and Mike Conron. Al- though able to soundly defeat such opponents as Boston University and Providence College, the team was overcome by such schools as Yale, Harvard, and the United States Coast Guard pability ranged from the novice class, which in- cluded most, to the very slim roster of the experts. After enjoying the vitalizing and powdery slopes from sun-up to sun-down, the group spent their evenings at frolicking but relaxing parties. It was, of course, tongue-in-cheek, and the laughs were many and loud. During the out-of-scason months, the hardy and faithful members spent their time preparing their equipment and jokes to make ready for the next winter's escapades. E TEAM Academy. Under the supervision of Lt. Col. Jeschke and Master Sergeant Roundtree of the N.R.O.T.C. Unit, the team placed fifth in the final matches of the southern group of the New England College Rifle Ieague. Brown barely missed gaining a fourth place when they were nosed out by the University of Connecticut squad by one point. The score was University of Con- neticut 1367, Brown University 1366. The team 1s next to compete for the Ivy League Champion- ship and the Rhode Island State Championships. Their manager is Steve Cottrell. Captain Samsel with members of the team. AFRO.T.C. RIFLE TEAM The Brown Air Force R.O.T.C. Rifle Team, in its fourth year of active competition, has won twenty-one out of thirty-three postal matches. The team, coached by Sgt. Griffin, has won eight matches in playoft rounds after the regulation matches have ended in ties. As a result of shoot- ing done by Captain Buzz Samsel and Bill Jacobs- meyer the team placed second out of twelve teams in the eastern district of the annual Wil- liam Randolph Hearst R.O.T.C. competition. N.R.O.T.C. RIFLE TEAM The 19556 Brown N.R.O.T.C. Rifle Team, coached by Master Sergeant Roundtree, has had a successful season this year. The team has been victorious in a number of postal matches and it has also defeated such schools as Rhode Island University and Holy Cross. The first team, com- posed of Captain Ralph Lary, Kirk Smith, Jim Maddock, Mike Conron and Dick Wailliams, placed eighth out of seventy-two teams in the national standings of the annual William Ran- dolph Hearst trophy competition.

WACHT CLUB Under the leadership of Commodore Jeft Spranger the Brown Yacht Club recovered from extensive hurricane damage and enjoyed one of its most successful fall seasons. Afternoon sailing on the Seekonk was very popular among the members, and sailing classes conducted by Dick Quinn created new appeal. The parties likewise upheld the Yacht Club social tradition. Reflecting this interest, the sailing team, led by Captain Tom Hazlehurst, Bill Arnold, and John Quinn, had the most outstanding season since the National Championship team of 1948. The team suffered a loss in its initial regatta to an excellent Oxford University team which was touring the country. However, from this setback they went on to win the Jack Wood trophy, the Jeff Davis Regatta, a Raven heptagonal, and the Naval Academy Fall Invitational. Other excellent showings include a second in the C. G. Quad- rangular, a third in the Danmark Regatta and a third as host of the C. Shuman Hoyt Regatta. Meanwhile, the freshman team went undefeated and were New England Champions. Climaxing the success of the year was the pur- chase of a new fleet of fiberglass boats to replace the venerable Dyer Dinghies. With this marked improvement, the outlook for next year is the best in the long history of the Brown Yacht Club. White sails in the C. Shuman Hoyt Regatta. 156 Members ol the club discuss journey into the wilds of Rhode Island. BROWN OUTING CLUB The Brown Outing Club can be justifiably proud of its progress during a two year existence. Since the re-activation of the pre-war club, it has served as an organized means of expression for many interests of both faculty members and un- dergraduates. During the outdoor season, these members of the University community, Brown men and Pembrokers, migrate to the mountains, or cycle on the Cape, canoe on Boston's Charles River, or camp on the Brown Outing Reserva- tion. In the winter months the club breaks into squarce dancing and folk singing and livens its meetings with guest speakers and with slides of the year's activities. T'o culminate the season's activities the members gather on the beach at Newport for an old fashioned lobster boil and the year's first swim. In the future, the club hopes to continue send- ing delegations to the New England Folk Dance Festival and to participate more fully in Inter- Collegiate Outing Club affairs. Also, those mem- bers interested in rock climbing plan to expand this activity in conjunction with the Appalachian Mountain Club. In providing an outlet for these specialized in- terests, the Brown Outing Club has maintained a camaraderie that is unique among Brown extra- curricular activities. Spring Weekend jazz con- cert in Patriots Court. 13 WEEKEND HIGHLIGHTS The weekdays move on, and it's off to class, then to the Hay or back to the house or dorm. For some uncontrollable reason, everyone looks forward to the Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays. Although we cannot control our emotions, we might define their source in light of two occa- sions in particular. Homecoming brings with it an exciting Ball sponsored by the Brown Key, alumni returning for house parties, and hysteria in the stadium. Spring Weekend commences with the sing finals, goes on to see the Brown man per- form in white dinner jacket at the formals and Bermuda shorts during the crew races, then ter- minates with milk punch. And yet, for some strange reason, a lot of the off weekends are turned on, and the Mondays become much, much bluer. Homecoming Queen's presentation at Brown Stadium. 157 A couple of years ago, some seventeen frater- nities packed up their troubles in an old Lans Warehouse van and congregated on that tight little isle known as the Brown Quadrangle. Now, of course, many undergraduates were rather upset by having to physically enter and participate in the great transition of the University. They liked the privacy and seclusion that their old domiciles afforded them, and were quite content to ignore the other Greek-letter men, let alone that mys- terious phenomenon known as the independ- ent. From the drawing-board sketches and blue prints, the new living area actually didn't look half bad. But alas, there was the Brown man, sud- denly residing in a jungle of new brick, with every barren path pointing toward a democratic outlook on life. The majestic trees that the archi- tects had included on the drawings were but a few feet high, and gave the impression that they would fade faster than last year's football team. The climbing vines of ivy, symbolic of all re- fined Atlantic seaboard college students, were hardly up to the first floor windows. Worst of all, a fella couldn't walk from the Wayland Arch to Patriot's Court without having to say hello to five or six people he really shouldn't speak to. Yes, Gilbaneland with its high walls and imposing House mothers were a stabilizing influence . . . LIFE IN ... as were the alumni counselors. moats was closing the undergraduate into a new existence, and he wasn't too sure if he liked it. The Office of Student Residences insisted that all Quadrangle furnishings be cared for, with the threat of W. J. Sloane's prices for replacements. The Student Employment Office assigned several rooms to undergraduate workers to be cleaned and sheet-changed once a week. The residents were responsible for their living quarters the rest of the time. The fraternities slowly began to adjust to things. They made up their minds that they would have to put up with the administration's leveling-off program. Greek-lettermen went to work to fix up the interiors of their houses in the most attractive manner possible. They put up with parties now suddenly infested with people they didn't like or even didn't know. Fraternity alumni advisors stepped in to interject a serious outlook toward campus reputation and make cer- tain that the organizations maintained their age- old traditions. House presidents upheld the rules that young ladies would only enter the first floor rooms with the doors open, and the bars were always closed at the prescribed hours. Dignified chaperones carried out their responsibilities with a profound devotion to duty. Administration, faculty, alumni, and parents took a deep breath and relaxed. Things had ad- justed to nmormal. All was quiet on the Thayer Street front. THE QUAD Girls never entered rooms above the first floor. Andrews House offered medical service for the morning after. Fraternity men were always willing to show guests their houses. Christmas parties were held for little un- der-privileged children. LR C. The Interfraternity Council is made up of the president and one representative from each of the seventeen fraternities. It exists for the purpose of governing fraternity affairs and setting the pol- icies under which the fraternity system at Brown operates. During the past year, the Council set up a new rushing system, a great improvement over the one-week rushing of past seasons, and great advances were made in increasing its au- thority over, and responsibility for fraternity matters. The new rushing system, which was tried for the first time last fall, enables freshmen to get a far better look at fraternities for making the im- portant decision of which one to join. The fra- ternities also benefit from the added knowledge they acquire of the men they are interested in. Under the new system, casual contact is per- mitted between freshmen and fraternity men on the campus, the boundaries of which are outlined in the Rushing Rules. During the first semester of the academic year there are two open houses held in the fraternities on specified dates. Then, as in the past, the first week of the second semes- ter is the formal rush week, with the frater- nities having three open houses' and visiting the freshmen in their rooms on the in between days. The new system ran exceptionally well, especially for the first year of its operation. Another noteworthy addition which the Coun- cil made to the rushing setup was the publishing of a much improved fraternity handbook. This new pamphlet contained a group picture of each of the fraternities and a short article about each one. Pictures of the various raternal badges and pledge pins were also included. It is believed that this improved handbook was very valuable in helping the freshmen to become acquainted with the fraternities and the fraternity system.

It was mentioned above that the Interfrater- nity Council increased in authority over the past year. One of the main features in this strengthen- ing was in the new set of illegal rushing penalties and the delegating of the power of investigation to the executive committee. The penalties now not only affect the fraternities, but the freshmen involved in a case. It was felt that the possibility that he might be held from joining any fraternity for three semesters would cause a freshman to steer away from any illegal contacts. The establish- ment of the executive committee as an investigat- ing body in illegal rushing cases proved its worth in several instances throughout the year. The only violation was convicted by the Rushing Court. During the past year, the Council delegated considerable power to the executive committee, thereby adding greatly to the authority of the Council as a whole. Several matters that were for- merly handled by the Deans are now taken care of by the I.LF.C. The power to punish any frater- nity having unregistered parties, as well as han- dling any infractions of the social rules was given to this body. The executive committee was also empowered to decide on any special cases re- garding pledging or initiation. The Council fur- ther added to its power by establishing fines for various infractions that were also formerly pun- ished by the Dean's office. The annual Interfraternity Council dance was held on March 11th and was a tremendous suc- cess in spite of rather crowded conditions. For the first time in several years, the dance was held at the Sheraton-Biltmore, a fact which greatly added to the attractiveness of the evening. Richard Hay- man's orchestra supplied the music, and during intermission, Hayman combined with Deans Dur- gin and Moulton in a few harmonica numbers. The profits of the dance go toward a scholarship. In lieu of the annual cocktail party, the Inter- fraternity Council donated the money normally utilized for that affair to the Bruce M. Bigelow Memorial Scholarship fund. 163 ALPHA DELTA PHI Alpha Delta Phi was founded at Hamilton Col- lege in 1832 and its Brunonian Chapter was in- stituted at Brown in 1836. Since that time, when it was the first fraternity at Brown, the Chapter has been widely recognized for its contributions to the welfare of the campus and the community. In recent years the spirit and activity of the House have increased. Brothers are found in al- most every major campus organization, on the Dean's List and in athletics. Members of the class of 1955 who upheld A.D. traditions in this re- spect are men like Ted Barrows, President of the 1.F.C.; Stu Erwin, Editor of the 1955 Liber Bru- nensis and Bob Cahill, Executive Editor of the Brown Daily Herald. These three men also served on the 1954 Brown Key. John Dorer directed the Jabberwocks, Dick Nourie was their Business Manager and Bud Dimmitt sang bass in this 164 octet. Jim Webster was Business Manager of the 1955 Liber. 1954 saw A.D. win the LF.C. sing contest as in 1953. We also were awarded the 1954 Homecom- ing Poster trophy and the Interfraternity Scholas- tic Improvement Award. The class of 55 will well remember their years in Alpha Delta Phi.

Schwartz, secretary-treasurer of the Brown Rowing Association, and George Conn, member of the Brown varsity hockey team. The Beta men enjoyed several important week ends this year, their Christmas Formal and Candlelight Weekend being two in particular. Before Christmas vacation a party was held for underprivileged children. In athletic contests they entered and won the Exton Tennis Tournament. Within the house itself, the game-room and the hall were re-decorated. The members finished up the year's activities by publishing an alumni magazine. Pl 167 168 DELTA KAPPA EPSILON The Dekes came to Brown in 1850, six years after the fraternity was founded at Yale in 1844. The past year was an enjoyable one in Deke history, as we continued to adjust ourselves to life in the quadrangle. We built a new and im- posing bar that extends across our lounge and dwarfs anything else of that nature on the cam- pus. Our Christmas party was again successful and Spring Weekend promises to be an excellent affair. Bill Klaess was a dependable guard from the 1953 and '54 football teams but all Brown men will always think of him in terms of his inter- ception of a fumble that resulted in our winning the 1953 Homecoming game against then-power- ful Holy Cross. Other Dekes who excelled in athletics were Crunch Cronin who played foot- ball, baseball and hockey; Vit Piscuskas who returned from the Army to his old fullback posi- tion and accounted for many crucial yards; Jim sS4 X T v lll i mmmw Lohr, who played football and was a member of the 1955 Brown Key, and Bruce Bartsch, who looks like an excellent prospect for the '55 and '56 pitching staffs. George Kirkpatrick, another of the old guard who has returned to Brown, will be out for tennis in the spring and should do well, judging from his past performances. CLASS OF 1955 Charles A.

Senior D-Phis who have compiled fine records in activities and athletics are many. Norm Bouton was a consistently top performer for Sock and Buskin and played for the squash team. John Chandler worked on the Senior Week Committee and was program director for WBRU. Dick DePatie was Chairman of the IFC sing and a student advisor. Doug Lowe was on the 1953-54 Brown Key and managed the swimming team. Russ Shaw served as president of the Newman Club. The D-Phi costume party is always a well at- tended event as are the Founders' Day banquet and the Initiation banquet, attended by many alumni. During the past year the Chapter repainted the house dining room in the Sharpe Refectory and made a number of improvements about the house itselt. We look forward to the prospect of playing host to the National Convention of Delta Phi in May of this year and we look back with pride on our time spent in its Beta chapter. There are many memories that will come back over the years concerning the big week ends and the little week ends that often developed into real occasions. DELTA TAU DELTA Bethany College in West Virginia is the site of the original chapter of Delta Tau Delta. In 1896 the Beta Chi chapter was established at Brown. Delts are prominent in many campus activities and in athletics. Al Thomson headed one of the most successful Brown Charities Drives in 1954 and was a member ol the Brown Key. Mitch Smith was on the Executive Committee of the IFC; Don Trepte was President of the Brown Key and Joe Granger played football. Ed Lary is President of the Class of 1956 and a member of the 1954-55 Brown Key as is Roger Singer. Bob Saltonstall played varsity hockey and Bill Demchak is a rising star at quarterback for the Bruin eleven. During the past year Delt won the Alan Fort Trophy for the interfraternity skit contest. The 172 house was also awarded the Bruce M. Bigelow Trophy for excellence in intramural debate. The Delt social agenda is always a well-filled, highly enjoyable aspect of our life. Unusual motifs are tried at various times during the year and sometimes, as in the case of the Jungle Party, they become traditional. Among recent events at the Delt House were the Parisian Party and the IFC Flapper Party. CLASS OF 1955 Arthur R. Belil, Jr. Allen Bulley Philip E. Bonz John R. Bosler, Jr. Gordon E. C.

Bob Borah brought great credit to the House as Co-Captain of the 1954-55 hockey team. Throughout his four years at Brown. Bob has been one of the brightest names on the rolls of Bruin hockey. Dan Hoik was an editorial asso- ciate of the Brown Daily Herald and Gordie Johnson swam for the varsity swimming team. The defense of the hockey team acquired a definite association with D. U. when junior Russ Kingman joined Borah on the first team. Ina dentally, Bob was named to this year's All-Tvy first team. The D. U. variety show has become a well known event in the Quadrangle, and the annual Friday night ciew races draw contestants from almost every house on the Hill. The Hillbilly Jamboree is another distinctive leature that pro- vides much levity for the participants. The Brown Datly Herald claims many D.

DELTA UPSILON 175 KAPPA SIGMA It was at the University of Virginia in 1869 that Kappa Sigma fraternity was founded. The Beta Alpha Chapter was established at Brown in 1898. Some of the members of this year's senior class who participated in campus activities were: David Decker, Managing Editor of the Liber Brunensis; Charles Blythe, Vice-president of the Brown Glee Club; Socrates Mihalakos, Co-Chair- man of Campus Dance, President of the Sopho- more Class, member of the Brown Key and former member of the Vigilance Committee; and Donald De Ciccio, member of Sock and Buskin and Vice-president of the Intramural Athletic Council. The Kappa Sigs held several annual affairs, which included their minstrel show, the Home- coming Review show, the Kappa Sigma Sweet- heart Christmas Formal, a party to open the social activities of the second semester, which this year was called Behind Them Swingin' Doors Party, and the Senior Review Show. Kappa Sigma earned first place in the Brown Charities Drive, second place in the Homecom- ing Poster contest, and second place in the Com- munity Service Trophy Award. This year the members adopted a Korean war orphan. Kappa Sigma undergraduates who represent the House in extracurricular endeavors include Ed Lee, Executive Editor of the Liber Brunensis, Bill Kelly of the Jabberwocks, and Bob Corrigan of the Cam Club.

Dan Keefe was high scorer on the 1955 hockey team. Harry Josephson was one of the nation's leading pass receivers as well as an end on the 1954 football squad and a fine baseball player as well. Ed Tooley captained this year's basketball team, was its leading scorer and was named to the All-Ivy squad. Dave Halvorsen was Co-Captain of the hockey team and played with excellence as goalie. John Monaghan was a senior editor of the Brown Daily Herald. I'he all-college intramural football champion- ship went to Lambda Chi during the past fall and our annual Christmas Party of Providence youths was again a success. Departing seniors of L.ambda Chi will follow next year's football team with particular interest since it will be captained by Jim McGuinness, whose play for the Brown team has already won him widespread recognition. LAMBDA CHI ALPHA 179 PHI DELTA THETA Phi Delta Theta came to Brown in 1889, hav- ing originated at Miami University in 1848. Since that time the fraternity has grown into one of the nation's largest, with chapters throughout the country. Phi Delts look back with pleasure on such occasions as the annual alumni week end held each fall with its lobster dinner and the evening dance. Then there were such events as the cele- brated German Beer Party and the performances of the Very Seldom Jazz Band Ltd. Brown athletics number many Phi Delts on their rosters. Pete Kohut played three years of fine quarterbacking for Al Kelly's football team with Vin Jazwinski assisting him as fullback, and tackle John O'Brien up front to clear the way. Buzz Samsel and Jim Harrell served as Captains of the 1953 and 1954 wrestling teams respectively and Jazwinski proved his versatility with the baseball and track teams. Roy McKechnie started late in Sock and Buskin but achieved wide recognition for his work in the lead of Stalag 17. He was also in the 1955 Brownbrokers show and was a member of the 1953-54 Brown Key. The House is particularly proud of Phil Jar- vinen, Bob Ecker, Jim Borst, Dick Atkinson and Vic Guiness who have distinguished themselves as students in the engineering school.

In 1902 the Pi Rho chapter came to Brown and has since numbered many well known Brown IMEN on its rosters. Socially, the Phi Gams are partial to their Homecoming and Christmas parties and the Fiji Island party is a well remembered affair. A HI GAMMA DELTA Richie Bry and Roger Bensinger led the house to the fraternity tennis championship and our intramuralers always fielded a spirited group. Ed Sutherland served on the 1954-55 senior board of the Brown Daily Herald as Assistant Business Manager; Richie Bry was a member of the Executive Committee of the IFC, and Sum- ner Young, who owns the only skiable hill in Minnesota, was naturally a mainstay on the var- sity ski team as well as serving as President of WBRU. Don Barber chased Sumner about the slopes as another member of the ski team and played varsity baseball also. The Phi Gam bar has become one of the more popular resorts for the early Sunday morning set and the memories of good times there as well as a good life in Phi Gam will remain with the class of 1955. 1834 PHI KAPPA PSI 7 The Rhode TIsland Alpha of Phi Kappa Psi came to Brown in 1902, having been founded in 1852 at Jefferson College. The fraternity colors are cardinal red and hunter green. Seniors Mike Reilly and Bill Harris were out- standing linemen on the 1954 football team and received wide recognition for their part in giving Brown one of its finest seasons in many years. Ed Kincade was a reliable performer on the bas- ketball floor and the baseball diamond as well, while Al Politi helped out the less talented Brown men as Director of Intramural Athletics. Junior Ned Randall was Chairman of the 1955 IFC Dance which was highly successtul, and he was elected President of the IFC for 1955-56. Notable social events at Phi Psi include the faculty cocktail party, the Christmas formal Week- end and the annual Homecoming festivities. The chapter usually does well in intramural athletics and the past year was no exception as we won the volleyball, horseshoe and foul shoot- ing contests, placed second in fraternity football and won our league football title. Other Phi Psis active on the campus include Joe Daley who was on the Brown Key and served as Co-Chairman of the 1954 Homecoming Dance, and Dick Marcus, who devotes much ol his time to Sock and Buskin and the Liber Brunensis.

Its Brown chapter, the Rhode Island Phi, was organized in 1929. In looking back over the years in Pi Lamb, the departing seniors will always have proud recollections of the chapter's twenty-fifth anni- versary dinner held at the Ledgemont Country Club in December, 1954. President Wriston was the principal speaker, which made the occasion all the more notable. Pi Lamb's Fall Formal and Senior Dinner Dance are two other highlights of the recreational side of life. Yet there must be a more serious side and the chapter is mindful of this as witnessed by our consistent achievement of top scholarship stand- ing among the fraternities, which gives us the highest average of any organization at Brown. Decparting seniors will leave behind the record of many contributions to Brown. Pete Mayerson was Treasurer of the Cam Club and Secretary of the Brown Key. George Ginsberg was Co-Chair- man of the 1954 Freshman Week Committee and also a member of the Brown Key as was Jim Lichtenstul. Steve Halpert was Sports Editor of the Herald and has been succeeded by Barry Gotterher. Junior Dick Fogelson was Co-Captain of the swimming team and one of its consistent WINNETS. PI LAMBDA PHI 187 188 Establishment of the Sigma chapter of Psi Upsilon at Brown in 1840 makes it one of the oldest fraternities on the campus. The first chap- ter of the fraternity was founded in 1833 at Union College. Psi U's prominent in campus life included Bob Womsley, who served a year as President of the Freshman Class, and was Treasurer of both the Brown Key and the IFC and Charlie Flather, Captain of the cross-country team and a member of the Key. Guy and Dick Hughes were also members of the 1956 Brown Key, both were good performers with the squash team, and Guy was a member of the baseball squad. A prominent feature in the memories of many Brown men is the excursion boat, chartered by the fraternity as a floating vantage point from which they, the A. D.'s, and guests watch the week end crew races. The ride up the Seckonk is PSI UPSILON an excellent preparation for the alternoon's activ- ities and many of the Providence gentry line the bridges to watch the vessel go through. Spring afternoons on the Psi U terrace always seemed to attract many loungers and winter eve- nings in the Psi U bar often extended far into the following morning as enjoyment and good cheer prevailed.

Stevenson el Miami University was the original site of Sigma Chi which was founded there in 1875 In 1914, the fraternity established its Beta Nu chap- ter at Brown. Sigma Chis who are prominent in extracur- ricular endeavors are: Cliff Ridley, 1955-56 Editor-in-Chief of the Brown Daily Herald; Bruce Blinn, a member of the Sphinx Club; Fred Joest, Rear Commodore of the Yacht Club: Bob Hoffman, Art Editor of the Liber Brunensis; SIGMA CHI Tony Randazzo, Vice-president of the Class of 1956 and Co-Captain of the swimming team, and Ted Ferguson, Secretary of the Brown Engineer- ing Society. Although Sigma Chi didn't win the Home- coming Poster Trophy last fall, it was generally agreed that ours was one of the best displays. However, our designers and engineers failed to take into consideration the sense of propriety that prevails in University Hall and all our efforts went down the drain. Future motifs will have to be in a more conservative vein. Duting the past year the chapter redecorated the card room, game room and bar which makes for more comfortable living in the new house. Lhe chapter ranked hich in the Fales Trophy standings for community service and our contri- butions to this necessary work will continue. Virginia Military Institute at L.exington, Va., was the site of the first Sigma Nu chapter in 1869. In 1912 the Delta Lambda chapter was started at Brown. The annual White Rose Formal is a standout on the social calendar and Sunday afternoon receptions for the faculty and administration have proven most enjoyable. As in the past, the chapter continued to sup- port its Korean war orphan, Lee Pyung Yup, and the annual Christmas party for underprivileged children was held as usual. Sigma Nu seniors who have given much of their time and eflort to athletics and activities are many and the range of their interests is broad. Bill Arnold was first string center on the basketball team and a mainstay of the sailing 192 SICMA NU team; Jim Egan was Vice-president of the Class of 1955, a member of the Cam Club and Brown Key and was faculty solicitor for the Brown Charities Drive. Dick Spizziri was a Junior Phi Bete, Chief Justice of the Student Court, Secre- tary of the IFC and Chairman of the Academic Honor Code Committee. Tom Cottrell was a justice on the Student Court, President of the Glee Club, and a frequent for Sock and Buskin. CLASS OF 1955 B. William Arnold, IV Charles A. Asselin G. Kenneth Chambers Robert B.

Seniors in major activities in- clude: Everett Pearson, Captain of the varsity football team, member of the Cammarian Club, and member of the ski team; Kenneth Peterson, Editor of the Brown Daily Herald; Bill Prifty, member of the varsity football team, and member of Cammarian Glub, Sphinx Club, and Canter- bury Club; Raymond Fox, Captain of the ski team; Jim Funck, a member of the varsity foot- ball team; James Kilpatrick, Chairman of the Freshman Week Committee, Vice-president of the Brown Chapel Choir, and a member of Cam- marian Club; Frank Yatsu, member of the Brown wrestling team and the Freshman Week Com- mittee; Jeff Spranger, Commodore and student advisor of the Brown Yacht Club; and Jim O'Hara, a senior editor of the Brown Daily Herald and a member of the Brown Chapel Choir. The major social events of the year for Theta Delt were: the formal dance and jazz concert of Homecoming Weekend, the House Dance held Spring Weekend, and the annual informal Christ- mas party. Theta Delta Chi earned third place in the Homecoming Poster Award Contest. THETA DELTA CHI 195 196 Zeta Psi Fraternity was founded at New York University in 1847. The Epsilon Chapter was established at Brown in 1852. Zeta Psi seniors in major activities are: Wilder G. Lucas, foot- ball manager, President of Brown Youth Guid- ance and Co-Chairman of the Freshman Week Committee, and John G. Friend, Co-Chairman of the Brown Charities Drive and a member of the senior class cabinet. Other members in campus activities include: James W.

The Club, in existence since 1938 as an independent under- graduate social organization, has striven through Monday night meetings, intra-mural sports, the social calendar, and countless official occasions of comradeship, to render concrete the abstract ideals of the constitution preamble: u . . to stimulate friendship and personal service in the highest sense; to bring men of all races, colors, and creeds together in the closeness of social interaction and common goals, thereby promoting better understand- ing among our fellow men; to cultivate the qualities of good sportsmanship and compe- tition; to promote personal perfection phys- ically, mentally, and morally; to encourage loyalty to Brown University. All thingsfacilities, representation in campus groups, internal machinerychange, but these ex- press goals do not. Naturally, then, the Club rooms at 286 Thayer Street have witnessed some sights fairly unique this year. Under first semester President Owen Landman's administration they saw the institu- tion of fall Freshman open houses, were festooned with marine bric-a-brac for a Fisherman's Wharf dance, and had their picture snapped for a booklet description of the Club. They received new coats of paint as 18 menone of Tower Club's largest pledge groupsworked to- ward membership during the first half of Presi- dent Norman Orodenker's term. Walls were cov- ered with animal cages, floors with sawdust, for the Circus Motif. Finally, after the Senior Ban- quet, they saw 13 men bid them what was for some a final farewell. LTI L STUDENT ACTIVITIES OFFICE Extra-curricular activities play an integral part in the development of a well-rounded individual. At Brown this is a finely recognized axiom, which can be attested by the more than one hundred organizations flourishing on the campus. Fach of these organizations, which range from Biology to dramatics and from debating to banjo, had its origin in the student activities office, presently under the direction of Dean Westcott E. S. Moulton. This office acts as a guide and a land mark, giving the different organizations encour- agement and advice, helping young organizations get on their leet and preventing tired ones from falling. All of the fraternities and dormitories neces- sarily become well acquainted with the student activities office, for each of their parties and all of their social functions must be ratified by it. Sur- prisingly enough, there are five athletic organ- izations which fall under the supervision of S. A. office and which are ultimately disconnected from the realms of the athletic department. The Row- ing Club, as well as the Lacrosse Club, the Yacht Club, the Rifle Club, the Ski Club, and the newly formed Bobsled Club are all under its juris- diction. Help is given them in both schedules and trips. Student initiative is the prime requisite one must have to found a new club. The Student Activities Ofhce is not concerned with the size of the proposed club. It is more than interested, however, in donating as much assistance as needed, and certainly is far from being a block or a barrier to student desires; it is a stimulus and a boost for any new club, a necessary and appreciated function at Brown University. 199 200 JABBERWOCKS This year has been the busiest for the Jabber- wocks, since their beginning back in 1949, when a group of four enthusiastic singers adopted the name of Lewis Carroll's fantastic jabberwock bird and formed the Jabberwock quartet. The group, now numbering ten, has grown tremendously in the past six years. Engagements of the Jabberwocks this year have taken them to Wellesley, Smith, Wheaton, Cor- nell, St. Lawrence, Connecticut College for Women, and Mt. Holyoke. One of the highlights of the year was a trip to New York to sing at a reception at the New York Brown Club. Follow- ing a wonderful dinner there, the group sang at the National Republican Club before the Uni- versity Glee Club of New York, the top-ranking amateur glee club in the country. The success of the Jabberwocks for the past three years has been, in a great part, due to their director, John Dorer, '55, whose keen sense of music and leadership has inspired the men under him to rehearse every night seeking the goal of perfection. Another reason for their popularity is that they maintain a liberal style of singing, concentrating on no single type of song. Their repertoire includes a variety of spirituals, barber- shop numbers, humorous ditties, semi-popular and college songs. T'hese singers are unique from other groups in that their arrangements, many done by Professor Millard Thompson, are lengthy and intricate, sometimes going into eight part harmony. Most of the solo work is handled by Dorer, Dave Thompson, '56, and Bill Kelly, 57. Sitting on the sidelines, Dick Nourie, 'bb, han- dled the business and financial arrangements. GUIDANCE 201 Chaplain Edgar Reckard Left to right: Rev. Wylie, Rev. Baldwin, CHAPLAIN The over-all supervision of the religious life of Brown University is the job of Chaplain Edgar Reckard. Under his care are such specific matters as the direction of weekly chapel services, the general overseeing of the functions of the Brown Christian Association, and the relations of neigh- boring churches with the University. He is also available a good part of the time in Faunce House to those students who may wish advice on personal problems. He represents the University in the community through his talks, and devotes some of this time to teaching. His office has become an important inde- pendent agency which serves the spiritual needs of the entire student body. It is c nized in such a manner that there is room for both strong leadership on his part and the maximum of free- dom for student initiative. All high level decisions that directly reflect the over-all religious policy of the University are his. The community, composed of diversified denominations and faiths, function along very flexible lines. An extension of this flexi- bility in structure is the procurement of an addi- tional office in Faunce House that is used by the various religious group leaders. This is a definite advantage insofar as it affords a convenient location for individual counseling and organizational planning on the part of the various faiths. Rev. Msgr. Geohegan, Rev. Reckard, Rabbi Rosen. Bill Dineen prepares choir for week's three performances. I I A P E L t I l O I R Dean Keeney often starred in High Noon. The Brown Chapel Choir is composed of about si undergraduates and is directed by Professor William Dineen. The choir rehearses on Tuesday afternoons, and performs thrice weekly for the undergraduate chapel services. Of the twenty-two anthems the choir sang in the fall, nine of them had never been heard on this campus before. Listed among the choir's repertoire are psalms, chorales, and spirituals. The choir provides music for occasional Sun- day vesper services, the Thanksgiving service, and the Christmas service of Lessons. These services are well received, and the Christmas service of Lessons has become an annual event on the cam- pus. In the way of a special music service, the Music Department cooperated with the choir pro- gram and presented a sacred cantata by Buxte- bude, with David Laurent as baritone soloist accompanied by the University strings. The choir was invited to participate in the 250th anniversary celebration of the United Con- gregational Church at Little Compton, and com- bined with the Pembroke Choir for this service. The choir was to have produced the Mutual Net- work Series again this year, but unfortunately they were discontinued. Another invitation w received by the choir to participate in the Easter Sunday Service at the Radio City Music Hall, but vacation interferred. Members form for semi-monthly discussion. CHRISTIAN SCIENCE CLUB The Christian Science Club was first formed at Brown in 1936. The club's meetings, which are held semi-monthly, are open to all. These meet- ings afford undergraduates an opportunity to in- crease and enrich their knowledge of Christian Science, and help to create a closer bond of friend- ship. As well as meetings and religious services, the club holds discussion groups which apply the doctrines of the church to the problems of mod- ern living. The Canterbury Club, in conjunction with the Diocese of Rhode Tsland, affords a spiritual and cultural outlet for the Episcopal students. Group study and informal discussions led by outstanding speakers interpret the faith of the church in light of contemporary problems and encourage intellectual and spiritual growth. As part of the National Canterbury Associa- tion, the group realizes its responsibility to Epis- copal students in the Brown community. CANTERBURY CLUB Canterbury meeting at St. Stephens. NEWMAN CLUB The Newman Club is an organization in which Roman Catholic culture and knowledge are made accessible to Catholic students under the guid- ance of a Catholic chaplain. It also provides an opportunity for Catholic students to meet through the Communion breakfasts and various socials. Through the year, meetings are held, at which different doctrinal topics are discussed; occasion- ally speakers from other colleges present talks. Topics discussed this year were: Censorship, Beliet in the Existence of God Through Faith, Fear as the Basis of Religion, and The History of Gregorian Chant. Monsignor Arthur Geoghegan has been newly appointed by the Roman Catholic Diocese of Providence as the advisor to the Newman Club here at Brown. He succeeds Father John Farley. As well as conducting services, Monsignor Geo- ghegan also holds regular office hours. Officers of the club are: President, Dick Nourie; Vice-President, Emmy Greene; Corre- sponding Secretary, Grace Annotti; Recording Secretary, Brenda Brown; and Treasurer, Roger Fairman. The first Newman Club was founded in 1893 at the University of Pennsylvania by five medical students. Since that time over 350 such groups have been formed. In 1937 the Brown University Newman Club originated through the efforts of Father Thomas Kelly and several undergraduates. It has developed greatly, both in membership and in activities since that time. President Nourie and members listen to guest speaker Father Leonard. 206 206 HILLEL N Hillel members at Sunday brunch meeting. The Hillel Foundations on the campuses of 208 colleges and universities are sponsored by B'nai B'rith, America's oldest and largest Jewish service organization, to bring a more adequate knowledge of their heritage to the Jewish stu- dents. The units are supervised by trained pro- fessional directors who co-operate with representa- tive student leaders in the task of making Jewish religious and cultural values vital and relevant for the college generation. On the Brown campus, Rabbi Nathan N. Rosen has been in charge of the Hillel Founda- tion for the past eight years. During 1954-53, under the leadership of Norman Orodenker, Stu- dent President, and Eliot Barenboim, Program Chairman, an extensive study program has suc- cessfully been carried through. Outstanding lec- turers such as Prof. Ludwig Lewisohn of Brandeis University; Dr. Trude Rosmarin, Editor of the Jewish Spectator; Prof. Walter Feldman of the Brown University Art Department; Prof. 1. J. Kapstein of Brown; Dr. Alfred Jospe, National Hillel Director of Program and Resources; and Mr. Percival Goodman, well known architect, have participated in the brunch program on the themes What Is This Jewish Heritage? first semester and Jewish Creativity in the Modern Era second semester . Hillel co-operates with the Brown Christian Association and the Newman Club in projects of social welfare and interfaith. Brown students are welcome to attend religious services at the vari- ous synagogues and temples. After the services on Friday night, open house is held by Rabbi and Mrs. Rosen at their home. Discussions on per- tinent subjects of Jewish interest are held. Re- freshments are served and Sabbath melodies are sung. One of the highlights of this year's activities is the publication of the Hillel Year Book. Jerold Zieselman is the Editor-in-Chief. The book will be issued in May, and will contain a survey of Hillel's cultural, religious and social activities. STUDENT ADVISORS . Chairman Roger Hale surrounded by members of the Executive Committee. 207 208 The Student Advisory Program was begun in 1952 through the interest and initiative of Brown undergraduates. Since that time it has grown to be one of the largest and most useful organiza- tions on campus. The Student Advisors are directed by chair- man Roger Hale and an executive committee made up of Hale, Dick Beers, John Cutler, Mike Drabb, Pete Shutkin, Don Walsh, and Chuck Weingarten. With the help of their Faculty Ad- visor, Dean Durgin, the group strives to assist students in their adjustment to college and to make them aware of what Brown has to offer outside of studies. Each advisor works in close conjunction with a faculty counselor and has from five to ten ad- visees. While the faculty counselor helps a student academically, the student advisor works with him in adjusting his course program, advises him con- cerning activities and fraternities, helps him in his dealings with taculty and undergraduates, and in general, aids him in his over-all adjustment to campus life. An attempt is made to give each freshman an advisor whose field of concentration is generally the same as the one he is considering, in order that he may be of more use to the freshman. This year the executive committee has made an effort to reorganize and re-evaluate the pro- gram, hoping to make it even more worthwhile. A new constitution was drawn up to provide for a more systematic method of operating, and a great deal more publicity was used than has been in the past in order to encourage more people to become members. Each year the Student Advisors are carcfully chosen by the executive committee from a large list of applicants from the sophomore and junior classes. This choice is made not on the basis of scholastic standing, but for character and interest in the Student Advisory Program. That this program is worthwhile is evidenced by the fact that since its inception, the academic record of the freshman class has improved greatly. The recent completion of the Brown quad- rangle has clearly altered the course of fraternity life on the hill. With the equalization of many advantages in physical plant which some fra- ternities had enjoyed over others and the placing of all the houses within the same relatively small arca, the fraternities became increasingly more aware of the advantages to be obtained in working together on obligations and problems that con- cerned them all. The new quadrangle had an even more far- reaching effect on the dormitories of the univer- sity. All the new dormitories had lounges, game rooms, and quarters for resident fellows. The liv- ing quarters for a good many independents were thus vastly improved, and again the factor of close physical proximity served to make many realize the advantages in some sort of body that would represent the collective interests of all those not affiliated with fraternities. Such a body was the Interdormitory Council formed in 1952 by three enterprising undergraduates. The IDG represented not only the dormitories in the new quad, but all the dorms on campus, and it hoped to provide a more favorable environment for the independent student . . . , to stimulate better school spirit through interdormitory unity, and to cause the realization of the dormitory inde- pendent's responsibilities to the University and to the community at large. The means by which the new organization hoped to accomplish its purpose were many and varied. The idea of sponsoring social functions and intramural athletics was, of course, thought of immediately; but even more important was the determined wish to have meetings with the administration and faculty in order to promote better relationships. It was further realized that the IDC must cooperate with other campus or- ganizations and participate in the activities of community welfare organizations in order to be successtul. The council was set up as a congress of dorm- itories, the delegate from each dormitory being the president. The executive board, comprised of a president, vice-president, recording secretary, treasurer, social chairman, and corresponding secretary, was elected once a semester. During the school year of 1953-564, the IDC acquired a fac- ulty advisor in the person of Professor John Ladd, the head resident fellow of the quadrangle. Thus a strong link was established between the organ- ization and the faculty. In the following months the IDC helped pro- mote the Red Cross Blood Drive, served as an organ for the transmission of dormitory com- plaints to the proper sources, and proposed a new system whereby dormitory residents could select incoming occupants in the interest of close-knit group spirit within the dormitory.

The Brown Youth Guidance Program was orig- inally a part of the Brown Christian Association, known as the Rhode Island Counselors. A year ago it became an independent organization, and since that time it has grown from five members to approximately eighty. The counselors work through three different agencies, Nickerson House, the Bradley Memorial Home, and the Rhode Island Children's Home. Their aim is to give the children with whom they work an adult figure to guide them. Justices Ginsberg, Kuntsler, Spizziri, Chief Justice, Abram- owitz, and Corbridge hear a case. 210 President Thomas E. Walker CLASS OF 1955 The march down college hill in cap and gown, the committee sponsored rides to our freshman dorms: were they really four years apart? And so they were, memorable occasions both: the arrival found the class of '55 anticipating four full won- derful years, and the departure found us look- ing back on those four years with many fond memories. For many of us, the four years could not have been spent more wisely, but there are those of us whose college lives are full of missed opportuni- ties and wrong turns. But let us look back, as a class and be proud of what we have done. Amid the happy kaleidoscope of songs, smiles, hand- shaking, name-signing and moving, freshman week began for the 620 members of the Class of 55 on September 10, 1951. Perhaps no other single moment in youth can match this one for stark emotional confusion, and as the first few days of lectures, exams, movies, and meetings moved on we began to show signs of the habits ol thought and action that carried us through our four years. Dean Walker told us that the reason we had had a drop in application was that there was a falling oft of the G. I. Bill candidates, but what- ever the reason for our size, here we were, 620 strong, determined to become social lions, not recluses, students, not dullards, and successes, not also-rans. The most important thing, however, to us as incoming freshmen was that we were in charge of our lives: the apron string of family life had been slashed away, and the responsibility for making something of ourselves was ours alone. We had plenty of help during that formative period. President Wriston asked us in Convoca- tion why we came to college. He answered that if we had come looking for the solution to the riddles of the world we were wrong, and that if we thought that we were going to learn to make a living, we were wrong. College, he stated, is a place hospitable to ideas and ideals, nursing them, watching them, studying them, and then keeping them or throwing them away. He told us fresh- man year that we could not take care of our own business and let the rest of the world go by, that our real vocation is not to earn a living, but to become a citizen, and that during our four years at college we should gain the knowledge and experience to be good citizens. 211 Vice-President James T. Egan So with this charge in mind let us look over our four years, and refresh our memories with some of the highlights. One of the biggest highlights was the physical newness of the quadrangle. The moats, the closeness of the buildings, their same- ness, the spike fence, the gates served to make many of the free spirited students among us look in askance. But when those students found the gates little impediment to late entry or exit, and when the quad was landscaped to perfection, crit- icism died away and we settled into the Fall scheme of things. We were a spirited class. We united to rebel against the guiding hand of the Vigilance Com- mittee. Just five minutes before a newly appointed V. C. Court opened its initial session, upwards of 300 irate members of our class stormed Faunce House to rescue three classmates. Quoted in the Brown Daily Herald the next day was: If 600 guys don't want to wear dinks, they don't have tolet's get those guys. Hey! There's an upper- classman! And we also felt self-sufficient. Remember all the freshmen social gatherings at 62 College Hill, and at Maxcy? And in the Spring we had the first and so far the last intra-class party at Pem- broke Field House with members of the Pem- broke freshman class. Our self-sufficient initiative manifested itsell elsewhere, and we stood our ground in the criticism of the rushing rules, and our proposed changes to the Vigilance Commit- tee. Some of these went through then, but many suggestions had to be mulled over and dcvelope'd, and weren't put into effect untl we were 11 charge of things Senior year. We were the first class to offer blazers to the members during their freshman vear: all other classes waited until soph- omore year. There was heated controversy in our class council as to the color. The blue blazer pro- ponents had. as it turned out, the more cogenl argument, because after the brown blazer had won on the grounds of school colors, the blue prophesy of few sales came only oo true 111 spotts too we were a class apart. When Ernie Savignano started loothall practice on September 17, 1952, he didn't realize all the potential talent he fielded But when the team captained by Kohut and Klaess ground out victory after vic tory, with only a 14-13 heartbreaking loss to Yale, Sav and Varsity Coach Kelley became enthusi- astic about the future of Brown football. The freshman soccer team was a whiz, losing only to the University of CGonnecticut 1-0, and Coach Joe Kennaway was keenly disappointed to see the best of his players fall from the class roster as they became eligible for his varsity. Freshmen also made a good showing in track, and Coach Fuqua was in high hopes of reelevating Brown track to its former lofty position. The freshman wrestlers led by Joe Muse were heralded as the very best, and our basketballers, captained by Ed Tooley, compiled a 17 and 2 record. Their height, speed and shooting accuracy catapulted many into var- Secretary John T. Houk sity berths the very next year. The freshman hockey team led by future varsity star George Conn, won only two games, while the Ireshman swimmers won none. The baseball team led by Chuck Asselin did a commendable job while our tennis team captained by Doc Houk won all but one. The highlights of our freshman year included the varsity victory over Yale in football, the appearance of Yolande Betbeze at the Homecom- ing rally, four inspiring speeches by President Wriston, the finishing of the quadrangle, being rushed by the fraternities and all the novel ex- periences of studying and being examined. The engineers had the hardest time due to the tre- mendously rigorous standards set by that depart- ment, and not a few of us were academically forced to change our degree candidacy. Sophomore year our assimilation into the col- lege life was completed. Many things happened, our football loss to Rhode Island, our resounding triumph over Harvard, our entry into the extra- curricular activities of our choice. We loved the Jabberwocks and their future leader, John Dorer, joined them then. We were amazed at Lou Mur- go's basketball ability and many of us saw him set the individual scoring record of 34 points per game against Massachusetts. But what should have been the most significant thing to us was hardly evident. Attendance at current affairs and controversial lectures began to decrease. As an example, in 1949 when Bernard Baruch came here to speak both Sayles Hall and Faunce House were filled, but this year when Defense Mobilizer Fleming spoke at the invitation of Pembroke, barely 10 rows of Alumnae Hall were occupied. The Students for Democratic Action, once one of the most powerful student groups on campus, was allowed to die after the Mrs. Robeson contro- versy despite efforts of some. Attendance at the Marshall Woods lecture series dwindled. Our class and the rest of the school allowed tuition to increase and seniors be forced to take both comprehensive examinations and finals without a squawk. Whether this lack of enthusiasm was peculiarly ours, or whether it was characteristic of today's security seeking, and controversy shirking generation is not for us to decide here, but because it was present, it must be noted. Junior year was our year as a class to take over the operation of the school organizations, and here again we excelled Warren llchman lash- joned together an effective student government that won much praise. And so it was with Stu Erwin's yearbook, lom Coturells glee club and Ken Petersen's Brown Daily Herald. We seemed Treasurer Warren F. Ilchman to have the magic touch of leadership, although there were many more of us who were content to be indians. And so we brought these organizations into the home-stretch of our college career, senior year. Before turning the helm over to younger leaders, we compiled an admirable record of things ac- complished. Sportswise as a class, we were un- equaled. The football team under Ev Pearson came heartbreakingly close to an undeleated sea- son, and his run in the Princeton game will live as long in our memory as will Bill Klaess fumble- carry in the Holy Cross game of 1953. The amaz- ing solos of Dan Keefe in hockey brought Cap- tains Halvorsen and Borah an Ivy League title. The swimmers and Ken Chambers soccer team faired badly, but the wrestlers, alternately under Buzz Samsel and Jim Harrell won the Ivy title. In the spring, Harry Josephson's baseball team and Doc Houk's tennis team should finish the season in fine form, while the crew has yet to unveil its potential. So we come to the Van Wickle Gates, and see that they are opened outward. As we read over this history in later years, let us evaluate our lives in terms of our potential and resolve never to fall short. John Houk Secretary, Class of 1955 213 the swimming team and Flather to lead cioss country. Don Gardiner was elected president of Brownbrokers as well as captain of the cheer leaders-they run on similar lines. here was also a picture of the junior class council selling Spring Weekend hats, which really doesnt fit in here at all. but the fact that they were active does. It seemied to the casual observer that the class ol 56 was beuinning to assert its influence strongly on campus life. This influence was even more evident when Fall rolled around. The Freshman Week Com- mittee was filled with members of the class, and the mature fashion in which they impressed the newly arrived Pembrokers was garnered by two years of experience and an added posture that can only come with the realization that you are two years ahead of them on the academic lad- der. The arrival of Butch Bruno added public- ity to the Key, and the football season found many juniors filling out the starting line-up. The names of Williams, McGuinness, Lohr, and Thompson began to appear in the headlines of the Daily Herald. One hundred and eleven jun- iors made the cut list; so they had no trouble getting to the away games on time. President Edmund C. Lary C Ll tS S O F It is junior year when you realize that you no longer know everything and that a whole realm of experience is opening up before you in your major. There is also the sad knowledge that your belt has expanded two subtle notches and the spread you never accepted until then has arrived. Five and six began to appear under the semester heading on library cards. You look back and see that you have come half way and feel that you just arrived on the train from New York for the first time. Nineteen hundred fifty-four slips quickly into '55 and the year of your class is next on the schedule. It is time to look around and see how the class is doing, for certain dynamic things have undoubtedly happened, as they always must when you are soon to step into the driver's seat and resume responsibility. Early in the Spring of '54 faces of classmates began to appear in the BDH and strangely enough they were the heads of organizations. Baugh was elected president of the Key and Hale was to head the Student Advisory Council. Trowbridge was to guide the Youth Guidance Program. In athletics Fogelson and Randazzo were to captain Vice-President Anthony P. Randazzo 214 Secretary Marvin 1. Wilenzik 56 Homecoming arrived and with it came hurri- cane Hazel. This added much excitement to the week end, but the Brown Key had many uneasy moments concerning the Friday night dance. The football team never seemed to reflect this un- easiness though, and defeated Princeton 21-20. The week end was a triumphant success. During the Fall the class council seemed to be hiding. It looked like they had gone under- ground, but suddenly they broke into the news with a radical revision of the council structure. Senior year was rolling around, and it seemed wise to prepare for the duties the council would have to assume. Permanent class oflicers had been elected not long before and around the nucleus of Lary, president; Randazzo, vice-president; Wilenzik, secretary; and Rider, treasurer, a new council arrangement occurred. Separate commit- tees were formed to handle such functions as Grad- uation Week, Career Speakers, class gift, social functions, and Spring Weekend. The purpose of this type of organization, modeled much alter the class of b5, was to create a greater efficiency and flexibility in class government, and to permit a greater number of the class members to take part in the planning of class functions and activities. The rewards from such a move will obviously be revealed in the future. With the coming of Spring, the role juniors were to fill in the university community showed most clearly. Tn fraternity, athletic and extra- curricular activities many posts were to be left vacant by the coming graduation, and it was only natural that the logical successors be elected. The personality of the class of 56 was now to be exerted upon campus life. LaBonte assumed lead- ership of both the Cammarian Club and the De- bating Union, Guy Hughes was elected to the post of Chief Justice on the Student Court, IHale was to head the Freshman Week Committee and Easton to direct the Brown Christian Assocla- tion's activities. In all fields of student activity the juniors were taking the reins of leadership. Junior year was a spreading of waistlines and the opening up of new realms of academic experi- ence, but it was also the year when the class of 56 began to rise noticeably in the various areas of University activity and exert its identity. Treasurer Kenneth G. S. Rider 215 The class of 1957 returned to school this fall to find that very few of its members had not returned. Gone were the two attitudes which had predominated throughout Freshman year, that of starry-eyed wonder at really being in college, and later one of the all-knowing disinterest. Newly acquired fraternity pins were in evidence on both the Brown and Pembroke campuses. The realiza- tion that it would soon be time to select a major made for a more serious and thoughtful attitude toward academic endeavors. As well oriented, mature Brown men, the members of the class of '57 were ready to accept new responsibilities and to acquire new interests. The Vigilance Committee kept the Freshmen well in hand through a well thought out and con- structive policy of indoctrination. The inhab- itants of Patriot's Court squirmed in anguish as the class of '58 sang for its supper each night, and the whole quadrangle noted a distinct lack of gate rushes and riots. The VC's were doing their job efficiently and comparatively quietly. The Freshmen eventually learned to recognize Jim Ogden and where Robinson Hall is located, and the fun was brought to an end as the class gained S t L : a decisive victory in the flag rush. Vice-President Robert W. Minnerly CLASS OF New officers, president, Bob Goft; vice-presi- dent, Bob Minnerly; secretary, Gus White, and treasurer, Lee Jacobus, directed the workings of the Class Council as it continued the good poli- cies of last year and instituted some new ones. The Newsletter, which was begun last year to let the members of the class and the university at large know what the '57 Class Council was doing, was carried on throughout the year. One new responsibility which the whole class took on through the Class Council was the support of a Korean War Orphan. A special committee, set up to handle this project, organized a door to door canvass of the members of the Sophomore class to raise money for this purpose. During Spring Weekend the members of the '57 Class Council could be found delivering amaz- ing sale pitches in their efforts to sell straw hats. Their efforts were, of course, highly successful. The council also worked on the design of the class banner. Perhaps the least seen, but the most ambitious work of the Class Council was that performed under the direction of the Promo- tion of Brown Committee. This committee presented various ideas to the council and later President Robert H. Goff, Jr. 216 to the university for the promotion and advance- ment of Brown, on campus, in the community, and on a larger scale. Tt is hoped that one of the eventual results of this idea will be the publica- tion of a book similar to Bear Facts, to be distrib- uted throughout the campus, and to be used by the Admissions office. This book would contain thumbnail sketches of the various organizations, activities and teams on the campus. This year's Frosh-Soph Hop was organized in such a way that it was a success both socially and financially. Not only did the largest crowd in several years to attend one of these functions enjoy themselves, but this dance also served the practical purpose of helping to make the Fresh- men feel themselves more a part of the college, and helping in developing inter-class friendships. As the year progressed it became evident that the faces which had begun to appear on such organizations as the Cam Club, the Herald, and the LiBER had voices to go with them. The names of members of the class of 57 began to be seen on the masthead of the BDH, to appear among the officers of WBRU, to show up on the com- 1957 Secretary Augustus A. White mittees of the Brown Christian Association, and to appear on the lists of fraternity officers. Many Sophomores ecarned their B, the class being represented by men on almost every varsity. As well as taking on new responsibilities and interests, the class of '57 received new privileges. T'he principal of these was the new free cut rule. Under this rule, any Sophomore who has a 2.5 over-all average, and who has achieved a 2.5 aver- age during the preceding semester is placed on unlimited cuts. As the University has not found it necessary to revert back to the old rule, it would seem apparent that the sophomore class has not abused this privilege. As Freshmen, the members of the class of '57 were almost entirely on the receiving end of col- lege life; they were still groping to find them- selves, and took anything they could get. But as Sophomores, they came into their own as contrib- utors to Brown life. The potential that was heard about so much in orientation lectures began to be realized, and another class commenced to exert the influence of its own personality on the Brown Community. Treasurer Lee A. Jacobus 217 team avenged the loss of the flag rush with a victory over the Sophomores to bring the class into a tie in the battle for the Brown Jug. This team also produced two pool records. In October, the freshmen picked dormitory officers, and men of ability received their first chance to prove themselves. These new officers handled the dormitory affairs and worked with the upperclassmen on the IDC. A few weeks later the class elected its officers. Mike Trotter was chosen as president; Roy Smith, vice-president; Bob Strand, secretary; and Chuck Turner, treas- urer. A great interest in class affairs prompted the formation of a large class council in order that more freshmen might participate in the six committees and an executive board. The blazer committee arranged for the purchase and sale of the class blazers. The community service commit- tee was designed to give a useful outlet to the spare time of interested freshmen for the benefit of the community. The dance committee made arrangements for next year's Frosh-Soph Hop, and the party committee functioned to provide CLASS: GR President Michael H. Trotter The first taste of Brown experienced by the class of 58 was the none too pleasant presence of beanies and V. C.'s. Both soon showed them- selves as elements which forced the freshmen to band together into a unified and friendly class. The largest class ever to enter the college soon became familiar with the songs, traditions and landscape of Brown. After a week of raids and questioning by the Vigilance Comumittee, the class's newly developed spirit finally came to light in a nocturnal march on the quadrangle. After braving buckets of water and violent threats from upperclassmen for over an hour, the spirited group disbanded on the promise of a showdown with the Sophomores in the flag rush the next day. The men of '58 lost the flag rush in bitter and muddy battle, but, because of their great spirit, they rid themselves ol their beanies and were well on their way to becoming true Brown men. Although college life was relatively new to the freshmen, they soon adjusted themselves and ap- peared in many extra-curricular activities about the campus. The class brought forth many fine athletes in football, soccer, cross-country, wres- tling, track and baseball. The frosh swimming Vice-President Roy H. Smith, 11 218 ilance Committee six months before applied for membership on next year's committee. The srown Key interviewed the freshmen and picked twenty-six for duty in September. Cammarian Club selections provided the opportunity for sev- eral freshmen to take an active part in the student government at Brown. Every member of the class of '5b8 has benefited academically and socially at Brown. As the year progressed, the class became increasingly more unified, and under leaders of their own choice, the men of '58 were organized into a functioning unit. During the year each member of the class of 58 became more aware of the position his class was assuming in University life. By a small jump of the imagination it was not difficult to bridge the gap to a future senior year. With this new consciousness of a particular identity with Brown, a new responsibility was felt, and the Cammarian Club elections made it evident that among them- selves leaders for the future would be chosen. There is little doubt that over the year the Class Secretary Robert H. Strand of '58 showed its ability to assume a responsible position in the University. 1958 social activities for the class. Information about activities within the class was handled by the newsletter committee and the open committee was useful in carrying out many different projects during the year. The council's first meeting was the scene of a windy argument over the crest to be used on the class blazer, but the problem was cventually solved with the result that the class of 58 bought more blazers than any preceding class. After two open houses during the first semes- ter, the freshmen were plunged into rush week immediately following exams. Beds were made, and coats and ties were abnormally numerous for the entire week. Dormitories that were crammed already to the point of overflowing with fresh- men were flooded with fraternity men. The de- layed rushing program gave the class a better chance to evaluate each house, and on Saturday, nearly half the scholastically eligible men decided to pledge. When it was all over, it was difficult to judge whether fraternity men or freshmen had suffered more academically and physically. During the second semester, new activities be- came open to the class. Over one hundred of the same freshmen who wanted to abolish the Vig- s unetiC harl e roner 219 Forming up . . . Another very successful year has been enjoyed by the Naval Reserve Officers Training Corps at Brown. The unit is comprised of 341 men, se- lected through nation wide competition as regular idshipmen, or contract midshipmen who receive . .. for the march to Thayer Field Officers of the unit. their appointments after entering Brown. Fresh- men students study American Naval history and naval customs; sophomores learn the operation and maintenance of naval weapons; juniors study navigation; and seniors study engineering and the qualities of leadership necessary for producing competent naval officers. Midshipmen must also attend a weekly two-hour drill period where marching drills are held, or information relative to the classroom material 1s discussed. Four awards are given annually to deserving students in the units. The Senator Theodore Francis Green Award is given to the sophomore with the highest mark in navigation. The Brown Navy Club gives an award to the freshman naval science student with the highest academic stand- ing. In order to provide the best training, advan- tage is taken of the government ladilities in and near Rhode Island. Some midshipmen observed activities and toured the facilities of the Sub- marine Base at New London, Connecticut. Dur- ing the Spring Recess, 44 midshipmen and four officers took the annual cruise to New York and Newport, while performing routine exercises en route. During the summer months, to advance their knowledge of the sea, 160 midshipmen will em- bark on training cruises. The freshmen and jun- iors will travel to Spain and England, or the Scandinavian countries, or cruise to the Carib- bean arca. Regular Sophomores spend three weeks at Norfolk, Virginia, for amphibious train- ing, and three more weeks of air training at Corpus Christi, Texas. Midshipmen, who as jun- iors choose to accept a commission in the Marine Corps, spend their summers at the training basec at Quantico, Virginia. One of the unit's principal extra-curricular activities is the ten member rifle team, comprised mostly of freshmen. Dick Williams and Jim Mad- dack have led the team through six or seven shoulder matches, and many more postal matches, in which the unit has asserted itself as one of the finest ROTC rifle teams in the New England area. The team is also entered in the Randolph C. Hearst Trophy Match with other NROTC units throughout the country. The Brunavians was organized to coordinate the social and athletic activities of the midship- men. They sponsored several dances throughout the year including a military ball in conjunction with the AFROTC unit, a shipwreck party at the Yacht Club, and a Christmas party for under- privileged children. Under the sponsorship of the club, a large group of midshipmen toured the Naval Air Station at Quonset Point, Rhode Island, with their dates, and attended a dinner- dance at the Officers Club in the evening. The Brunavians also entered teams in all the major intramural sports. One of the main functions of the club is to create a closer relationship be- tween the officers and the members of the unit. After completing their courses of study at Srown, the midshipmen receive commissions as ensigns in the Navy or as second lieutenants in the Marine Corps. Lt. Col. Rauchle, Executive officer It's a small world in the air age. AFRO.T.C. With the graduation of the Class of 1955, Brown University Air Force Reserve Officers Training Corps makes its first contribution to the ranks of the officers of the United States Air Force. Since the inception of the AFROTC pro- gram at Brown in the summer of 1951, tre- mendous strides have been made. A group of college freshmen have been taken and rounded into men capable of assuming command of vari- ous organizations and personnel within the Air Force. Perhaps the two most important factors in this rounding process have been the inculcation of discipline and 'esprit de corps. This discipline and esprit de corps enable the cadets to survive the rigors of a four week summer encampment on one of three Air Force bases, during which time the future officers were given their first in- tensive contact with military life. The esprit de corps which is so important to the success of a military organization has over- flowed into the various extracurricular activities Looking at a prop. in which the unit participates. The Cadet Drill Team, a purely voluntary organization, has par- ticipated in various parades and competitions in- cluding the Veterans' Day Parade, the Woon- socket Mardi Gras Parade, the St. Patrick's Day Parade in New York and the New England Drill Competition as well as a drill exhibition pre- ceding the Brown Homecoming game. The Cadet Rifle Team composed of twelve cadets has par- ticipated in over 60 postal rifle matches during the year of which over two-thirds were victories. The team also fired in the William Randolph n Air Force Drill Team. Hearst National Postal Match and placed second in the New England Area. The cadets have been active in the intramural sports at Brown having placed second in touch football and finishing high enough in the other sports to remain in constant competition for the All-College Trophy. Brown can well be proud of its AFROTGC unit under the guidance of Golonel Gilbert Goodman and be sure that wherever her graduates may go in the vast Air Force organization, the name of Brown will be well represented.

T PR CECCRELR ik - - ST 199 IIEIE 1955 UNDERGRADUATE POLL The 1955 Liser finds it well nigh impaossible to compress the 2,000 students on the Hill into a Brown Man type. The poll, administered in chapel through the cooperation of Chaplain Reckard, will indicate, we hope. a few interesting things about the mythological Brown man. These results, atter a minimum of juggling and decimal dropping, appear for your consideration on the following pages. With the significant development of Brown during the Wriston era, New England has re- mained as the area claiming the most students 499,, with the N. Y. N. H. H. set from the Middle Atlantic states second with 289,. Of for- eign continents, Asia is the most prolific with 22. The Korean conflict has apparently fostered a great increase in the desire of these peoples for American education. The fraternity system flourishes in the Quad and the largest percentage of Brown men still find time for 20-30 hours per week on the books. Twelve percent, or about the same number that made the Dean's List semester I, 1954-55, got by with less than eight hours. Beyond the scholastic, the great majority managed to make the ac- quaintance of three or more of the faculty those poor chaperones!, and flick out at least once a week. An overwhelming 939, turned out to see the best Brown football team since 1949 despite the often damp weather unusual?, but hockey at the Auditorium was not far behind with 699,. About 24 of all Brown men got athletic at least once a week; the others we presume are those that Mx. Q. keeps shooing off the luxuriant growth in the Quad. The leading dating preference 489 was in favor of girls from other colleges; however, we continue to see P'brokers very well represented at the houses on Saturday nights. A healthy 129, found the grass green enough on Cushing Street to manage five or more dates a week. Only 259 didn't care about charm and personality when looking for a date, and the general consensus was that two or three children would make a pleasant sized family. For those who had any opinion on political matters, Brown proved to be 659, Republican 409, of the total student body. One chap fancied himself a Royalist, and doubting the veracity of the Brown man somewhat, we didn't list Com- munist . . . that's the questionnaire we're sup- posed to give to the professors. When put to it to make a choice, the students preferred the Navy 409,, but 159 really didn't think that the Army would be a bad deal at all. WHERE DO YOU LIVE? 1.
