Butler Appears on College Bow l BUTLERiUNIVERSI f ! i t Butler University ' s College Bowl Team had the honor of appearing on the General Electric College Bowl program December 15, 1963. Those pre- dominantly responsible for organizing and training team members were the College Bowl Committee, consisting of Dr. Robert Gilpin. Dr. Marshall Dixon, Dr. Harold E. Johnson, Theron Ebel, and J eannie Lovering. The team members, Craig Pinkus, Jack Glazier, Phyllis Gorfain, and Alan Monroe, were chosen from 12 other semi-finalists who practiced just as diligently as did the final four. They were: Terry Cooper, Paul Davis, Sharon Dwyer, James Eaton, Stephen Kitchen, Mike McGee, Sandra Miller, Karen Pelz, Mike Schwartz, Phil Shelton, Jay Ward, and Meredith Wiley. Thanks to the generous gifts of campus organiza- tions-Student Council, Y.M.C.A., A.W.S., Mortar Board, Blue Key, Panhellenic Council, and Interfra- ternity Council — the team was able to eat at Leone ' s Restaurant Friday evening in New York City. Then Saturday afternoon there was a reception for the team at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Don Hoover (Mrs. Hoover a Butler alumna), to which members of the New York Alumni Association were invited. Then Saturday evening the team went to see the iSroadway play Luther. Sunday at 10 :30 a.m. the team had to be at the N.B.C. Studio. From then until air time, there were practice sessions. At the last session before going on the air at 5:30, Butler thoroughly trounced the Bodoin team. Although not the winner against Bowdoin Col- lege, the Team competed with one of the strongest teams that had ever been on the show. Only one other school received more points than Butler did in the competition against Bowdoin. The importance of the trip, Dr. Gilpin said, lies in the fact that we were able to bring the Butler story before 6| 2 million people. Here they are. Butlers College Bowl Team!
