Oa uJ P. e c ot ' c. (y. Joy ie jj y r M «o as % s (t m THE COVER is not just a design but an image of the purpose in Culver life. Each student enters green into a confusing society, and through experiences and reconsiderations, finds an individual path. This path, the development of a mature perspective, is reflected in Roll Call ' 68. 3 3113 01391 1690 1968 Roll Call Vol. 64 Culver Mil itary Academy Culver, Indiana LAKE COUNTY PUBLIC LIBRARY Contents and Editors Formal Album .... 112 William A.

Jordan, editor 3 Reflections - - Sources of Perspective Plebe Week Struggles be¬ gin a series of successes and failures for each of Culver’s 884 students. With each experience comes a reflection—a reconsider¬ ation of values and re¬ sulting augmentation of character. The chain of reflections follows a different pattern for each student, but every glimpse increases individual perspective. Underclassmen Begin in Confusion Whatever shall we do in that remote spot? Well, we will write our memoirs. Work is the scythe of time. -Napoleon Bonaparte When a new cadet first struggles into his uniform, the transition from civilian life seems com¬ plete. But, he soon Jearns that the initial effort only begins a tangle of ordeals. 6 Shining brass poses no problem until the cadet discovers a stubborn layer of lacquer to be removed before the brass will shine properly. Interpreting the maze of intelligent or not so intelligent orders from an upperclassman necessitates a respect and self- discipline unlike any that the new cadet has previously experienced. As the underclass existence progresses, Culver be¬ comes a confusing schedule of cadets telling each other what to do and when to do it. Soon the cadet learns to budget his time and becomes an artist at seeing himself through the day. If he doesn’t, someone else will efficiently help him through Culver’s instant reflection, the report pad. Lost time is like a run in a stocking. It always gets worse. —Mrs. Charles Lindbergh Students Seek Freedom What most students seek is freedom. For some it is sought through indignation of imposed authority. There are no outbreaks of violence, but in the con¬ fusing Culver environ¬ ment, many cadets find themselves swept unknow¬ ingly into subtle or not so subtle opposition to the system or some cadet officers. I do not suffer my mind to wander with my eyes, but I keep my eyes in subjection to my mind. —Pliny What is a weed? A plant whose virtues have not yet been discovered. —Ralph Waldo Emerson 8 The temptation to crack a joke in ranks or disturb Culver’s 2 a.m. tranquillity often offers a more attrac¬ tive interest than the exe¬ cution of “to the winds, march” or a term paper. Many cadets endeavor to find freedom by losing themselves in their own interests —the fascination of symbolism in ‘‘Lost Horizon,” the warmth of a girl, or the perfect waste of a Saturday night. Yet, a bell always rings to interrupt class or the whistle blows at a basket¬ ball game to stop play; someone corrects the cadet, makes him see what he has done, and tells him to do it over again. 9 Joint Reflections Guage Maturity In losing himself in his interests, the student is either deeply involved with others or oblivious to anyone else. Two lab partners working together on a single concept lose themselves in joint concentration, but two roommates juxtaposed while involved in different activities will invariably interrupt each other to produce an atmosphere of conflict. 10 Only when he takes time to evaluate the philosophies and actions of others in light of his personal experiences can the cadet develop a well-balanced perspective and then assist others in doing the same. Joint reflections—the appreciation of a crossfire of ideas in a history class or the reactions to a superior officer — are a gauge of the individuals maturity. To thine own self be true. And it must follow, as the night the day, thou canst not then be false to any man. —William Shakespeare Culver Provides A Sheltered Existence The ship, a fragment detached from the earth, went on lonely and swift like a small planet. —Joseph Conrad Here is the stuff of life in a microcosm. —Thomas H. Gignilliat 12 As his existence at Culver progresses, the student gradually begins to discern the nature of Culv er— a world with its own government, business ventures, and high-society clique. Yet, Culver provides an artificial shield from the dangers of life. Going into an exam could be disastrous, but the student finds security in Culver’s daily study and help” period. A mass of college questionnaires and meet¬ ings lead the student to the college which is just right for him, and a cautiously distributed weekly allowance allows ample funds for even the most lavish meal at the best restaurant on campus. But, five times a year at 11:42 a.m. the students rejoin civilization to cram months of “real life” into a few days. A further reflection upon Culver finds that the school itself has under¬ gone a change of direction. Under a new superin¬ tendent, Brig. Gen. John W. Dobson, the school has again evaluated its goals. The difference has not been an alteration but a reconsideration of emphasis. At First, Goals Are Provided... The reflection upon Culver as a microcosm provides most students with the tools to master it —a sense of direction. Because others have always provided the goals, the student’s purpose has been artificial. Behold the wicked little barb Which catches fish in human garb And yanks them back when they feel gay With will it last or does it pay? —Persis Greely Anderson 14 The luxury visualized in the regimental com¬ mander’s stripes or the funereal thoughts at performing extra duty for failure to get a haircut have hinted to cadets what or what not to do. Some students develop a preference of the suggested goals through their personal interests, but the individual has not developed a path entirely his own. From his now mature outlook upon Culver life, the student has the opportunity to develop a personal goal which may materialize as an individual path amid a maze of activities. No two students find the same sense of direction. Some seek a wide variety of interests, others seek perfection in one or two, and some don’t find a purpose at all. The most successful seem to be those in delicate balance between deep involvement in a few interests or a smattering of contributions to many activities. 15 Untested Aspirations Become Realities ' Tis weight upon a man to be looked up to as a commander, and I often feel it. —Thomas Hardy Up to this point in a Culver career, many students have realized aspirations but have not yet reaped a realistic self-image. The cadet finds himself in the long-anticipated posi¬ tion of upperclassman and suddenly sees the task before him. Intensified duties sharpen a sense of responsibility for some, but more often the in¬ creased privileges allow the cadet to slide into a state of unproductiveness in front of the new color television set in Beason Hall. 18 The dormancy begins for some as soon as the first or second class privileges begin; others wait until colleges have thoroughly evaluated and reconsidered applications. For all, the upperclass existence is a test in managing the ap¬ plication of philosophies absorbed and developed in the underclass years. As if you could kill time without injuring eternity. —Henry David Thoreau 19 Perspective Reflects Satisfaction Through Accumulated Experiences I can ' t honestly praise Culver for doing a good job on me because the school and I battled it out for four years, and I graduated under the impression that I had won. —Hal Holbrook 20 Through an osmosis of example, Culver has enabled the student to function effectively in society and has taught the importance of an individual philosophy and sense of direction. The student has found that Culver is a multiplicity of reflections to be fabricated into a perspective which he may reconsider and act upon. During June Week, a satisfaction possesses each senior. For some, a failure in one of the phases of Culver has displaced the glory, but the face of each student reflects a sense of accomplishment from an accumulation of experiences leading to the Iron Gate. 21 Students Probe Expanded Academics Whether struggling to comprehend the antics of a “sick” computer, squeezing the solution to a homework problem from an instructor during the final seconds of study and help period, or grasping on a December Comprehensive Exam for a fact lost after a confused cram session the night before, students found that the learning process begins with a series of realizations and discoveries. Often students viewed discovery as the required job at Culver. Gaining enough Quality Points for college admission pro¬ vided the materialistic goal for most stu¬ dents, but in seeking the highest possible slot in the class ranking, all stumbled across a captivating interest or frustration. Through the maze of concepts from a “Fine and Brown” history book or an English lecture “Between Heaven and Earth,” the students identified with and began to probe an individual fascination. The depth to which they contemplated and developed interests became a guage of what they had learned. 22 1 i i 1 English Electives Build Literary Perspective Eric Olsen, a sophomore in William J. MacQuillan’s Eng¬ lish II Oral Interpretation class, presents a literary speech while Mr. MacQuillan tapes it for the class to ana¬ lyze and correct at a later date. The course, in its sec¬ ond year, teaches a student how to interpret a poem or reading selection to an au¬ dience using only oral and gesticular means. Thomas E. Walker leads a discussion over Homer’s “Odyssey” during an English 3 class. Mr. Walker will be¬ come department chairman and Epp- ley chairholder in English when the present chairman, Arthur G. Hughes, assumes the chairmanship of the newly-created Fine Arts department. Mr. Walker, who initiated a new composition class in 1967, has been a member of the Academy faculty for 13 years. “To buy or not buy; that is the ques¬ tion,” as Rex Becker looks over a book from the English Department bookrack. The miniature bookshop was the outgrowth of an honor sys¬ tem bookrack established several years ago by the English Department for the convenience of students. Coeds volunteered to run the book¬ store between classes. Harvey E. Firari and aspiring play¬ wright “Skeeter” Gollnick concentrate on one of many plays analyzed in the drama elective. Students studied and listened to plays ranging from Greek tragedy to the modern theater of the absurd. The ultimate goal of each stu¬ dent was to write a play of his own. Jeff Z arem lectures his classmates on the Age of Chaucer in John M. Hartley’s sur¬ vey course of English literature, one of several elective courses offered by the English department. Projects in the course varied from class talks to lengthy papers on such things as an imaginary account of a day in Shakespeare’s Lon¬ don. Francis W. Lovett instructs an English III composition class. The emphasis was on vocabulary and composition technique. The course, also taught by Thomas E. Walker and Charles E. Bay less, was an elective open to all first and second classmen desiring to improve in composition and sentence structure. 25 New Chairman, Speakers Emphasize Interpretive Aspects of History Alexander D. Nagy, new department chairman and Eppley chairholder in history, reiterates a point in one of his two advanced placement U. S. History classes. Mr. Nagy stress¬ es interpretive rather than “facts and figures” history in this eighty ear-old course. Bob Grimes and other students discuss economy with instructor Carl M. Eckert. Economics, a semester course, has been taught by Mr. Eckert for the past five years. He has found that it attracts potential businessmen and has become a good preparatory course for an economics, business or law major in college. William P. Garrison lectures on the diplomatic history of the U.S. as students scramble to organize their notes. In developing a basis in interpretive history, Mr. Garrison al¬ so covered the political, economic, social and military as¬ pects of America. He spoke to all U.S. History classes in January about myths in the Civil War. 26 Felix Greene (center), the year’s first American Demo¬ cratic Heritage speaker, Far East expert and author of “Awakening China” and “A Curtain of Ignorance,” spoke on America’s collision course with Red China through the Viet Nam crisis. Later, Alex Haley spoke on “What The Negro Must Do for Himself.” Mr. Haley is known for his award-winning “Autobiography of Malcolm X,” his newly- written “Before this Anger,” and Playboy interviews with Dr. Martin Luther King, George Lincoln Rockwell and Sammy Davis, Jr. Dr. Phillip Crane, after an introduction by Lewis K. Moore, followed in February with his talk on the “Blessings of Liberty.” He has written “Democrats Dilem¬ ma” and “The Lessons of History, and was research di¬ rector for Barry Goldwater’s 1964 presidential campaign. The March speaker was Dr. Andrew Gyorgy, an Hungar¬ ian, who spoke on ideological diversity in Eastern Europe. The American Challenge in the Contemporary World (AC- CW) was developed for fourth classmen in 1967 from the American Democratic Heritage lecture series. Lewis K. Moore, level chairman for the course since it was estab¬ lished, designed a program which divides the ideological forces influencing world history into Democracy, Totali¬ tarianism and the third world, sometimes called Authori¬ tarianism. 27 Clubs, AP Courses Continue Language Tradition Students discuss the phil¬ osophy of Blaise Pascal in the French 4 honors class, taught by Gordon R. Uytte- brouck. The course focused almost entirely on French literature and poetry. In the spring, the French 3 and French 4 honors sec¬ tions traveled to South Bend to see a French pro¬ duction of Samuel Bechet’s play “Waiting for Godot.” Friday mornings during study and help, Latin honors candidates Ron Huggins, Bill Reader, Charlie McNagny and Roger Ferry met with Cmdr. John F. Roos to study the Greek la nguage. A mastery of the Greek fundamentals, the completion of an outside project and a good showing on the College Boards were prerequisites for gradmtion with honors. The modem language lab gave students practical experience in listening to and speaking foreign languages. The Language Department increased its facilities during the year by acquiring new machinery and additional tapes. Next year the department is planning to incorporate a section of the library as a tape bank. 28 Bob Larsen, German Club president, goes over the agenda for one of the club’s Sat¬ urday meetings. Under the supervision of Milton F. Hughes, the club visited the German Christmas Show at the Museum of Science and Industry in Chicago. Dr. Armando F. Perez, a Cuban refugee who joined the Culver faculty five years ago, conducts one of two Spanish honors courses offered at the Academy. The honors program required a high level of individual study from the students and gave them an opportunity to try for ad¬ vanced placement in college Spanish. Guided by Dr. Russell Blair and presi¬ dent J. C. Kline, the Russian Club met weekly for breakfast in the private din¬ ing room to supplement classroom meet¬ ings. The breakfasts gave students an op¬ portunity to put their knowledge of the language to a practical use. Computerization Adds Math Depth Ed Schroeder trims one of his completed plates while instruct¬ or Walter O. Gollnick grades as¬ signments. Mechanical drawing, a one-semester half-credit course, gave stude nts a new perspective on spacial relationships and a taste of engineering. Calculus instructor Myron E. Benner and one of his AP stu¬ dents pursue an integration problem. The seventh period cal¬ culus class, culmination of three years of accelerated math courses, worked through differ¬ ential and integral calculus and analytical geometry toward the May advanced placement exam¬ ination. The students also sought a firm background for engineer¬ ing, physics and college math courses. Accuracy and speed were essential to National Math Con test students. Bob Larsen, working under the critical eye of John Reitman, found the March 12 test worth the prep¬ aration provided through old tests by department chair¬ man Ray C. Jurgensen. The nation wide test was just one of many hurdles students overcame to graduate with mathematics honors. Reaching to construct a circle, Mike Hall drills on exer¬ cises from the geometry text book, written by two Culver teachers and covering Euclidean, plane and solid geome¬ try in a one year course. Col. John E. Maier instructed the advanced geometry section, which provided a firm base for algebra 2-honors and calculus. Alan M. Bunner helps Steve Kling and Bob Larsen analyze data provided by the IBM 1401 computer used in the new com¬ puter math course. The basic purpose of the one-semester course was to acquaint students with the fundamentals of com¬ puter programming. Aspiring computer programmers developed a variety of skills dur¬ ing the course of the semester. Besides writing, coding and hav¬ ing Mr. Bunner dissect their Fortran programs, students such as Chris Held spent much of their time key punching data on IBM cards. 31 After seeing a film on chemistry, Science Club members discuss some of the points brought out in the movie with club sponsor Walter W. Strait. The club met frequently during the year and explored the facets of several scientific fields. Science Lecture, AP Electives Give Diversity Looking like a mad scientist with his bubbling and steaming concoctions, Dr. Hubert N. Alyea, professor of chemistry at Princeton University, provided a change of pace from the usual diet of speakers with a lecture on “Lucky Acci¬ dents, Great Discoveries and the Pre¬ pared Mind.” Capt. Melville K. Short conducts a series of tests on a specimen in geology class, as Larry Scott, Mike Hardy, John Sellers, Rick Leininger and other students watch the results. Offered during the second semester, the course provided students with an introduction to the fundamentals of geology. The first semester science elective was astronomy, also taught by Capt. Short. As science chairman Walter W. Strait helps students, Tom Bradford and Jim Hart ponder a confusing velocity exper¬ iment involving carts loaded with bricks during a physics laboratory period. Three lectures and two labs per week gave students a foundation in physical science and taught the necessity of organization, precision and an ability to decipher the P.S.S.C. textbook. Mike Schneider and Greg Marshall set up experimental apparatus in an advanced chemistry lab. Taught by Darrell H. Beach, the course gave students extra training in chem¬ istry and prepared them to try for advanced college place¬ ment. One of the highlights of the year was a trip to Indi¬ ana University in the spring with the honors biology class. Coed Ruth Benner and post-graduate Tom Prince dissect a fetal pig in an honors biology lab. The course, taught by Kenneth D. Laser, prepared students for the May Ad¬ vanced Placement Examination in biology through practi¬ cal lab work and a trip in the spring to visit the research facilities at Indiana University. Carl Wyatt spent free time de¬ veloping artistic talents as a member of the art club. The club’s membership was unlimit¬ ed and there were no scheduled meetings. The members worked under the guidance of Culver’s artist-in-residence, Warner Will¬ iams. Fine Arts Develop Creativity and Reasoning Skeeter Gollnick and Matt Yaple listen to Daniel B. Keller’s in¬ struction on the organ during a music appreciation course in the Chapel. Mr. Keller, a new facul¬ ty member, taught a critical study of music from the classical age to the present. 34 Chip Linnemeier and Mike Sutherland discuss some fine points in their art work during Warner Williams’ general art class. The students used books, slides and many movies to develop fundamentals in art before college study in medical, engineering or industrial fields. Chaplain Jerome W. Berryman lectures on Hinduism at a Beason Park Cordon conference. Spiritual fulfillment was also available in the form of a one-semester course deal¬ ing unih a modem historical interpretation of the Bible; Sunday mass in town for Catholic cadets; the Rev. William R. C. Sheridan’s Sunday evening Episcopal communion; and Friday services in the Memorial Room of the Chapel for Jewish cadets. Dan Noland and Clyde Killian discussed the views of Descartes and other philosophers with Lewis K. Moore and Norman G. Wagner in the monthly Philosophy Club meetings. The club met during the winter months after reading material by varied thinkers to examine principles with fellow club members. The club tried to acquire a greater perspective on life by understanding what men of the past have reasoned. _ 35 Second class Dean John F. Edgell provided the first step in a student’s college counseling. Through general class meetings and personal talks, he introduced second classmen to the problems of admission and began to solidify ap¬ plication choices. Throughout the school year, Mrs. Norman G. Wagner helped first classmen make the neces¬ sary arrangements for college. Her work includ¬ ed filling out application forms, writing recom¬ mendations and administering all College Board tests. Sgt. Maj. Allen B. Chesser emphasizes a vital Military Science concept during an MST -3 class. All cadets except fifth classmen took classroom MST twice a week and earned two units of Senior ROTC credit. Karl Kinney and Bob Hesselbart strain for extra pull-ups on their P.D. test under the careful gaze of Colin W. Stet¬ son. Administered periodically during the year, the tests were an indication of a student’s progress, and satisfac¬ tory scores on the test excused first classmen from P.D. class and helped cadets in obtaining their Culvers. 36 Special Courses Expand Learning Experiences Mrs. Ernest B. Benson shows some cadets in develop¬ mental reading how to use the viewer machine. The course is assigned monthly to new cadets to help de¬ velop faster reading with maximum comprehension. Developmental reading was one of the special courses, including driver’s training and water safety, offered by the Academy. Through Health Education lectures presented during the course of the first semester, Dr. Donald J. Faulk¬ ner endeavored to educate first, second and third classmen about the hazards of smoking, various dis¬ eases common to Culver cadets and general use of the campus medical facilities. 37 Academic Leaders Have Diverse Talents Pianist Mike Bushnell was one of the Academy’s two National Merit Finalists. Finalists Bushnell and Jim Goldman were selected on the basis of scores obtained on the NMSQT tests during the junior year and were eligible to compete for National Merit Scholarships. Head librarian Mrs. Frank M. Bryant checks out a re¬ serve book to a history student working on a paper. Mrs. Bryant was instrumental in updating the library’s collection of books and expanding its resources dur¬ ing her 15 years at Culver. Mrs. Jack T. Jones instructs Harvey Koontz in the operation of a micro¬ film reader, one of the latest addi¬ tions to the library’s audio-visual de¬ partment. Mrs. Jones, in her second year as assistant librarian, succeeds Mrs. Frank M. Bryant as head librar¬ ian when Dean and Mrs. Bryant leave Culver in June. 38 Feeling shut out because they had no Cum Laude privileges, Mike Schneider, Roger Ferry, Greg Marshall, Ned Newman, Mike Bushnell, Charlie McNagny and Jim Dunstan struggled to im¬ prove their minds by reading poetry. Others elected to the hon¬ or society were Ruth Benner, Jim Goldman, Paul Hamer, Robert Jordan, Keith Oldham, Louis Schlotterer and Rich White. Blue Key members were leaders in extracurricular activities and sports as well as in academics. Steve Bachmann, cropping a pic¬ ture for the Roll Call, was one of the six early members, includ¬ ing Jeff Adams, John Crimmins, Duane Harrison, Mary Jurgen- sen and John Reitman. Morehead Scholars Keith Oldham and Jim Goldman had more in common than an all-expense-paid future at the University of North Carolina. They were both cadet captains and co-editors of the Quill, the student literary magazine. 39 New Leaders Guide Traditional Military Experience Military functions continued to regulate life in the Culver world. Enduring a General Inspection on the Oval posed a problem for some cadets, and “acting” to quel backtalk from a host of “enemies” at SRC formation provided a personal obstacle for others. For nearly every cadet, the required political life provided a challenge—to himself and those with whom he lived. Each learned the techniques of mili¬ tary leadership, and the only method of learning was . through experience—a series of reflections and re¬ considerations. The cadet found that his room was correctly cleaned only after it had undergone countless inspections; fall and spring drills provided him with all the marching experience he felt necessary. At some time, most cadets became an integral part of a unit, whether working for a sleep-in in the best unit competition or celebrating after a suc¬ cessful honor exhibition. Often, cadets felt individual frustration. What could be more humiliating than being told to “put your winter hat flaps down” on a balmy, 40 de¬ gree day? But, most were satisfied at having worked together to strengthen, or destroy, the military system. gMMMMM Cadet, Faculty Officers Administer Military Members of the infantry battalion staff, Ron Rubin, Nick Lauridsen, Charlie McNagny and Chuck Connor, discuss battalion operations. Lauridsen, along with five other in¬ fantry captains, rotated as battalion commander. To many cadets, regimental commander Bob Jordan’s rub¬ ber stamp for reports symbolized just another demerit, but to members of the regimental staff it became an essential part of a mid-winter drive to keep cadets in proper uni¬ form. During the year, staff members Bob Fogel, Mike Thrasher, Dennis Hansell and Steve Frederick inspected all units at police inspection for both personal appearance and room condition. Here, the staff eats breakfast before march¬ ing the Corps to Thursday matins. The Drill Team, composed of the elite from the Honor Guard, paces through a series o f silent maneuvers called “phase,” prompted by a single command from captain Bob Fogel. Organized in 1966, the team competed with neighbor¬ ing ROTC units on both the secondary and collegiate levels and exhibited its winning form at varsity basketball games and major dances. 42 INFANTRY OFFICERS: Andrew M. Hodg¬ kin, Band commander; Keith T. Oldham, Co. B. commander; Nixon E. Lauridsen, Co. E. commander; Rodney D. Bains, Co. C commander; James O. Goldman, aide-to- superintendent; D. Joseph Cummings, Co. A. commander; Thomas P. Matlock, Co. D commander; Dennis R. Hansell, reg. supply officer; J. Scott Carmichael, Co. B executive officer; Jan R. Medusky, supply officer; Paul R. Gift, Co. D. executive officer; Robert M. Fogel, reg. personnel officer; E. H. Krueg¬ er, Co. E executive officer; Mark D. Bo- dem, Co. C executive officer; Mark J. Strangio, Co. A executive officer; Charles W. McNagny, adjutant; Ronald T. Rubin, operations officer; Daniel P. Hoover, reg. mess officer; Alexander S. Williams, Band executive officer; Marshall H. Alworth, reg. auditorium officer. Topranking infantry captain Keith Oldham constructively criticizes the Honor Guard in one of its numerous maneuvers. The Honor Guard, establish¬ ed in 1932, had its first public showing the same year when it composed the guard for the Queen of England at the Century of Progress Exposition in Chi¬ cago. Providing a chance for an infantry cadet to demonstrate his prowess in precision marching, the Guard exhibits its skills on big campus weekends. High¬ light for the year was an Armed Forces Day exhibition at Grissom Air Force Base. Culver’s new superintendent, Brig. Gen. John W. Dobson, presents Maj. William A. Roosma with the Legion of Valor medal in recognition of his service in Viet Nam. Maj. Roosma came to the Academy’s military science detachment as its senior Army instructor. 43 Infantry Units Build Proficiency In Big Weekend, Military Activities Winning the Homecoming display for the fourth consecu¬ tive year provided Company E cadets with incentive to es¬ tablish further traditions and seek leadership positions outside of the company. Under captain Nick Lauridsen and new counselor Carl M. Eckert, the company earned regimental titles in football and defended the Austin Trophy for the third year in a row. The company had five varsity captains: Lauridsen in crew, Dan Hoover in arch¬ ery, Larry Pritchett in baseball, Gordie Delk in basketball and Jim Goldman in rifle. Goldman also earned the More- head Scholarship and first place on the semester class ranking; Jeff Adams, second class president, was first academically in the second class. Band presented counselor Ronald J. Gleason with a birth¬ day cake and eagerly helped him cut it with captain Andy Hodgkin’s sabre. Hodgkin led the Band to athletic dis¬ tinction as captain of the varsity soccer team and helped organize intramural teams that won four early season championships and two seconds. Ned Newman, Cum Laude member, and Steve Bachmann, Blue Key member, led an accumulation of 12 Gold A winners and four of the top five third class students at semesters. Under new director, Capt. Gilbert M. Fernandes, Band members practiced each Friday morning and Monday afternoon toward concerts, parades, accompaniment and the state instrumental contest. Captain Keith Oldham inspects Bill Tucker during a Sat¬ urday inspection. Oldham led the company academically by gaining the Morehead Scholarship and Cum Laude recognition. He also led a host of B Company canoers, in¬ cluding Mike Thrasher and Tony Wheeler, as captain of the team. Other officers were Jan Medusky and Scott Carmichael. Company C brains Paul Hamer, Mike Bushnell, Mark Bod- em, John Cooper and Rod Short captured the Vedette Quiz Bowl Trophy in a heated championship round with Band. Under captain Rod Bains and Col. Martin C. Uebel, the cadets stressed neatness in barrack. Company C cadets ranked high in the best unit competitions. Cum Laude members Bushnell and Hamer and Blue Key member Duane Harrison led the company academically. Company D commander Tom Mat- lock stressed excellence in mili¬ tary performance at ranks and gave second classmen the oppor¬ tunity to develop leadership cap¬ abilities by delegating responsi¬ bilities. To maintain the company’s athletic tradition, Matlock also led varsity basketball, and Platt Hill paced the wrestlers. The company tennis team won the regimental championship, and the volleyball- ers defended their traditional championship. Academically, John Reitman earned Blue Key recog¬ nition at the end of the first semester. Mark Strangio, Chico Canseco and Mark Whitfield began work during plebe week with captain Joe Cummings to regain the Austin Trophy and seek the Athletic Plaque. Cummings led the varsity swimmers with support from co-captain-elect Dave Brown and four other A Company lettermen. The company also won regiment¬ als in rifle. First classmen Chuck McNagny and Rich White and junior John Crim- mins earned Cum Laude or Blue Key distinction and served as Vedette editors. 45 New Battery Counselors, Battery A commander Bert Martin wraps roommate Doug Scholz for GI. As well as military perfection, Martin and counselor Richard A. Edwards stressed athletics and con¬ structive cummunication between and within classes in the battery. A “battery council” was established with elected representatives from each class, and Martin conducted fre¬ quent meetings with officers Hiram Smith and Doug Scholz. Scholz led the cross country team for the second year, and first class president Brad Strait was football co-captain. First sergeant Roger Bird, member of the second class board of governors, was elected co-captain of both football and wrestling. “Beaver B” plebes Hal Smith, Jim Voorhees, and Eric Lee perform a spoof on military life at the battery Christmas party. Under new counselor Lt. Cmdr. Marion G. Stephen¬ son and captain Mike Schneider, the plebes soon learned that the stress was on athletic and academic prowess. Schneider, who gained first semester Cum Laude recogni¬ tion, was co-captain of varsity swimming, and Rick Durkes was golf captain. Varsity trackman Stasz Gorski tied the 440 -yard run record. First sergeant Jack Scharff distin¬ guished himself as top-scorer and co-captain-elect of varsity wrestling, and battalion staff sergeant Chuck Williams made the Vedette All-Star team in both football and basketball. Acting commander Mike Schneider leads the artillery into the Dining Hall. The battalion staff, consisting of adjutant Jim Hart, operations officer Rick Durkes, and supply offi¬ cer Doug Scholz, was responsible for maintaining the mili¬ tary proficiency and neatness of the battalion. ARTILLERY OFFICERS: Michael S. Schneider, Bat. B command¬ er; Bertram T. Martin, Bat. A commander; Robert G. Eisele, Bat. C commander; Nicholas J. Capos, Bat. C executive officer; Michael R. Scholz, Bat. B executive officer; James R. Hart, adjutant; Hiram W. Smith, Bat. A executive officer; Stephen E. Frederick, reg. adjutant; Richard W. Durkes, operations officer; Douglas C. Scholz, supply officer. 46 Stand tall” was familiar advice as counselor Bernard G. O’Reilly, ‘62 Culver graduate, entered his first year at Battery C’s helm. Striving with him to maintain past awards and extend leadership into phases of campus life were captain Bob Eisele, Nick Capos, Steve Frederick, and Jim Hart. “Spar¬ tan” C contributed the editors-in-chief of both the Vedette and Roll Call, two Quill editors, and eight varsity football players, who helped the battery’s quest for its fourth straight Athletic Plaque. Among the footballers were captain John Schumacher and co-captain-elect Jon Hobson. Chuck Caponigro was rifle co-captain, and three of the six soccer captains were in the Battery. Intramurally, Battery C swam to regimentals in swimming and was runner-up in five other sports. The co-captain of wrestling, Louis Schlotterer, also helped defend the Academic Bowl for the eighth consecutive year by earning Cum Laude along with Roger Ferry. Four Gun Drill advisor Maj. George A Runkle plans maneuvers for an exhibition with Mike Schneider, Bert Martin and Bob Eisele. The honor organization demands precision in not only driving but also can¬ noneer drill, as Tom Bradford, Mark Krone and Steve Saunders show. Troop commander Reed Oppenheimer and counselor Capt. Carl V. Steely discuss ways of maintaining high standards with¬ in their organization. Troop A’s strong point was in athletics where it won regimental championships in squash, archery and basketball, while placing high in most other intramural sports. Flip Gates was captain of the polo team; Paul Much led the jumping team. Oppenheimer served as executive officer of the Lancers, and Felix Santaella was squadron supply officer. The Lancers form a circle around commander Greg Marshall during the Homecoming exhibition. They also performed for parents and visitors during Infantry and Mounted Services Weekends. With advisor Maj. Ray¬ mond K. Walmoth, the honor organi¬ zation travelled to Indianapolis to par¬ ticipate in the Veterans Day Parade. Troops Seek Military, Captain McCord Sollenberger in his first year at Cul¬ ver, supervised riders during equitation class to im¬ prove and teach methods of riding. Col. Floyd W. Townsley, who joined the horsemanship staff after Spring Vacation, will succeed Col. Gerald J. Graham as director of horsemanship for 1969. Troop B’s first classmen were invariably the last ones out of the Mess Hall when they enagged in their BRC bull sessions. Counselor Eric U. Anderson and cadet captains Robert Jordan, regimental com¬ mander, and Greg Marshall, troop com¬ mander, endeavored to improve their organization in all areas. The troopers won most of the fall mounted parades, while taking regimentals in company wrestling and winning the war canoe races. Members of the Cum Laude Society from Troop B were Robert Jordan and Greg Marshall, who also captained the Lancers. John Beaird, a member of the first class board of governors, occupied the position of squadron adjutant, and Tim Warrick was squadron operations officer. Greg Marshall, Troop B commander, leads the squadron battalion to chapel. The squadron staff consisted of John Beaird, adjutant; Felix Santaella, sup¬ ply officer; and Tim Warrick, opera¬ tions officer. Greg Marshall and Reed Oppenheimer alternated as comman¬ der. SQUADRON OFFICERS: Robert C. Jordan, regtl. commander; Gregory E. Marshall, Tr. B commander; Reed J. Oppenheimer, Tr. A commander; Timothy J. Warrick, operations officer; Hector R. Martinez, Tr.

Santaella, supply Extracurriculars Develop Creative Student Life Hissing Don John, the villain in Shake¬ speare’s “Much Ado About Nothing,” may have seemed obnoxious to the highly cultured, but for a student at Culver the action was just another experience in the diversity of student life. Required activities — Concert-Theater, movie and stage productions, experimental Thursday morning matins services, or bull sessions — provided students with basic social experiences, which they reflected upon and chose to develop according to their own desires. Extra-curriculars offered opportunities for creative leadership. For some students, finding free time to schedule a meeting amid a maze of conflicts offered an anti¬ military frustration to try even the most im¬ aginative mind. Other students used their activities as a ticket to some unrelated goal — usually the necessary points for military rank or college. When left to themselves, students de¬ veloped their own culture. Whether involved in the lyrics of “Shake a Tailfeather” at a clubroom dance or a hyperbolic discussion of outside world social life on the way to the town of Culver, each found unnumbered opportunities for a creative self-test accord¬ ing to his own standards. 50 Theater ’68 Stages Drama, Comedy and Musical Stage crew member Dave Schwaiger manipulates the intri¬ cate lighting system in Eppley Auditorium for “ J. B.” Many “behind the scene” hours were devoted by the stage crew in significantly contributing to Theatre ’ 68. Stage crew members Ned Newman, Carl Miller and John Lea utilize the speed of the buzz saw to prepare the set for the second Theatre ’68 production, “Bom Yesterday,” a comedy by Garson Kanin. Rehearsals for a Theatre ’68 show not only uncov¬ ered new talent but also amused theater director Leo K. Cohen. 52 Pete Josendale and Charles Biem (below) rehearse for a scene in Archibald MacLeish’s Pulitzer Prizewinning “J. B.” The result was seen in Theatre ’68’s opening pro¬ duction (right) in a dialogue between Nickles and Zuss in the circus tent of the “Universe.” Billy Dawn (Candy Crise) shows her affection to Paul Verrall (Tom Prince) in “Born Yesterday. The comedy replaced the play “The Visit” which may be the first attraction of Theatre ’69. The theme of “J. B.” was concerned with man’s purpose in life under God. By the play’s conclu¬ sion, J. B. (Carl Miller), with his wife Sarah (Lin¬ da Shirell), realized that Man, despite his minute¬ ness, will continue to persevere because he has hope through love, symbolized by the candle which the two hold between them. Early Concerts Induce Cultural Perspective The overbearing Sir forces his rules of “the game of life” upon the downtrodden Cocky, in the 1968 Concert-Series’ rambunctious opener, “The Roar of the Grease¬ paint — The Smell of the Crowd.” The musical, depicting the strug¬ gle between the “haves” and the “have nots” ended with the two realizing that to succeed they would have to work together. Othello, wheedled into a jealous rage by his vengeful aide, logo, strangles his wife Desdemona be¬ cause he thinks her perfidious. The Corps saw the Warner Broth¬ ers film production with Sir Laur¬ ence Olivier performing the lead in the Shakespearian tragedy “Othello,” the first of two Con¬ cert-Series movies. 54 During the December 6 perform¬ ance of The Impossible Years,” Lynn Bileck, playing actor Tom Ewell’s irresponsible teen-age daughter, harangues her younger sister, actress Jan Rhodes, for listening in on her conversations. The children clashed not only a- mong themselves, but also with their uninformed parents in the comedy by Bob Fischer and Ar ¬ thur Marx. On the night of Nov. 13, following a State Department tour of Africa and Asia, the Randy Weston Sextet entertained students with the history of jazz from its African begin¬ nings to today’s avant-garde music. Randy Weston, at the piano, plays a solo passage from one of his own compositions, “African Cookbook.” 55 Hippolytus declares his love for the princess Erycia in Jean Ra¬ cine’s “Phedra.” The French classical play, based upon Euripides’ tragedy, concerned Phedra, the wife of Theseus, king of Athens, and her misery in being in love with her step-son, the virile Hip¬ polytus. Izler Solomon conducts the Indian¬ apolis Symphony, one of the na¬ tion’s leading orchestras, during its annual visit to Culver. The April 2 performance marked the close of the 1968 Concert Series. 56 Exposure Varies in Optional, Required Shows The four impoverished Bohemians — Colline, Rodolfo, Schaunard and Marcello—bemoan their plight in the open¬ ing scene of the La Scala Opera Company’s production of Puccini’s “La Boheme,” the second of two motion pictures in the Concert Series. In one of numerous verbal skirmishes, Beatrice hurls a sharp retort in reply to one of Benedict’s barbs in the Na¬ tional Players’ production of “Much Ado About Nothing. The presentation was effective enough to bring hisses for the villain of the play, Don John, whenever he walked on stage. His knavery in the end was foiled with the marriage of Beatrice and Benedict. Through the medium of modem dance, the Alvin Alley Dancers presented the heritage of the American Negro; his legacy of music and dance; and his moods of sorrow, joy and hope. 57 Popular music at Culver entered a new era as the first class band, the “Blues Breakers Conspiracy,” transformed two years of “soul” into a hard rock, semi-psychedelic sound. Band members Doug Rich¬ ards, Larry Pritchett, Corky Tanassy, Gordie Delk, Jim Steffy and Steve Burdick perform at the third class Battle of the Bands. Chuck Gainer, rhythm guitar for the second class band, leads members of the winning combo in the third class Battle of the Bands. Joe Harris, Charlie Gholson, Chad Gardner, Al Gilbert, Dale Rabiner and Gainer called themselves the “Great Escape.” On the Sunday of Mounted Services Weekend, the 61 mem¬ bers of the choir performed the customary anthem and canticle in Chapel and then highlighted their afternoon concert with the Band by singing the Battle Hymn of the Republic.” Throughout the year, the Choir, directed by Robert L. Kamrow, specialized in sacred music and per¬ formed folk songs and spirituals. The vocalists also made several concert tours and appeared on live television when they performed for the Chicago Sunday Evening Club. 58 Performances, Expeditions Build Musical Skill The Dance Band plays leader Matt Yaple’s rendition of “Love is Blue” during the Mounted Sermces Dance. The group of 13 provided music for both of Culver’s mid-winter dances, and two members placed first in the 1968 Indiana State Music Contest. Blue Notes advisor Robert L. Kamrow assists the first tenors and baritones, Reed Oppenheimer, Tom Rentschler, Denny Hansell, Dave Miller, Dave Schwaiger and Dave Gates, in mastering a difficult part. Second tenors Mike Thieme, Fred Busse and John Alexander, along with basses Collins Wight, Chuck Lynch and Roger Fer¬ ry, teamed with the first tenors and baritones to perform at the Christmas banquet and vespers service, two conventions at the Culver Inn and a meeting at Knox. Among the Blue Notes’ specialties were “Black is the Color of My True Love’s Hair,” “Little Innocent Lamb and “Daniel.” 59 Ruth Benner cross-examines an opposing team member during Culver’s first Invitational Debate Tournament. The event proved so successful that Forensics Society advisor William J. MacQuillan decided to estab¬ lish it as an annual event. In a solo event, Bob Warner delivers an ex¬ temporaneous speech with his judge and another contestant as the au¬ dience. The Forensics team, one of the few teams to do so, competed in interscholastic competition on and off campus throughout the year. Rhetorical Activities Exert Cordon officers Rich White, Chris Hicks and Mike Curts discuss the Cordon conference at Beason Park as Chaplain Jerome W. Berryman conducts a seminar in the back¬ ground. The council planned more Beason Saturday morn¬ ing meetings than in previous years and raised a record $2,661.65 in donations for the Campus Chest. Company D representative Paul Gift searches for advice to help a cadet being counseled for an honor violation. After Rev. Allen F. Bray III left the Academy in Febru¬ ary, Col. Edward Stephenson and David L. Nelson took over as Honor Council advisors. 60 Dave Nevrill of the Guild of Lec¬ tors strives to create an empathy between himself and the student body. Advisor John M. Hartley asserted that the Guild had a deeper job than eloquent read¬ ing; its purpose was to communi¬ cate religous concepts. Campus Leadership The Cadet Club moved from the abstract to the concrete by undertak¬ ing tasks directly related to the student body. As an example, Rick Durkes, Mike Curts and Tim Warrick helped sort out and create a display for the library from a large collection of photographs and artifacts representing the 74 years of Culver’s history. Greg Marshall and Mark Strangio prepare the Honor Council for the next case by briefing members on the details of an honor violation. By this time, the case has been reviewed by a preliminary committee which determines whether an offense has been committed. 61 The Quill editors, advised by John M. Hartley, pro¬ duced mid-winter and commencement issues, which stressed illustrations and varied contributions from all classes. Selecting prospective copy during a Feb¬ ruary work session are Keith Oldham, Chip Linne- meier, Ruth Benner, Rich White, Dave Newill, Jim Goldman, and Steve Swale. Above, Louis Schlot- terer proofs galleys as the mid winter issue nears completion. 1968 Student Publications Seek Vedette editors Jon Nagel, Rich White, Chuck McNagny, Chris Held, and John Crimmins present¬ ed editorials and comments from campus leaders and special issues to provoke campus-wide concern over controversial topics. Through a two-part editorial feature, the Vedette presented proposals re¬ garding changes in extra duty, and the age-old reprimand was later revised. 62 The combined Roll Call and Vedette photographers fre¬ quently found themselves criticizing each other’s work dur¬ ing their weekly meetings in the Culver Inn lounge. Photo editor Mitch Padnos, Kim Mahnke, and Jim Westenoff ex¬ plain an idea to Scott Meeker, while Tom Bradford and Bob Hesselbart look over two contact sheets. The photo¬ graphers worked with Fred Royce, Lew Erwin, and Jim Lees, who made Culver’s darkroom a functioning reality. Awareness Through Quality The Roll Call editors found that the Publications Office in the basement of Eppley Hall of Humanities provided a con¬ venient lounge between classes — until late February when they spent hours daily choosing pictures, editing captions, and finalizing page designs to meet the April 15 deadline. The 1968 staff also sponsored a talent show and produced a Spring Supplement to the yearbook. Editor-in-chief Roger Ferry discusses a contact sheet with photo editor Mitch Padnos, as editors Tom Hess, Steve Bachmann, Bill Keslar, Sandy Baker, Jim Goldman and Ruth Benner prepare ma¬ terial for the next deadline. 63 Social Clubs Lead Big Weekend Activities First class officers Brad Strait, Dempsey Watson, Tom Strong, Nick Lauridsen, John Schumacher and John Beaird discuss an upcoming first-class event. The officers activated a fall picnic with plebes, several faculty teas, the first class weekend, a heart-fund campaign, and the Winter Carnival. They were also responsible for bringing a professional band to campus for the major dance weekends. Officers of the class of 1969 discuss upcoming events at Monday breakfast. Through their efforts, the class sponsored more dances than in previous years and hired an off-campus group, the “Junior Jive Kings,” for Infantry Weekend. Shown are President Jeff Adams, Jon Hobson, Roger Bird, Bill Adair, Mike Ryan, Bob Phillips, Bob Steffy, and Art Flache. Third class president Ralph Coutin and Rich Rafes lead a third class cheering section at a basketball game. The third class officers met their first experience in fulfilling the responsibilities of student government with originality by sponsoring the Battle of the Bands, a number of dances, and trips to St. Mary’s Academy. Varsity Club president John Schumacher leads a cheering section composed primarily of Varsity Club members. The Varsity Club’s major activities included encouraging good sportsmanship, promoting attendance at athletic events, and selling refreshments at the football games. The club had an influential role in the creation of Culver’s new medal for excellence in athletics. 64 The three coed cheerleaders, Jane Lovett, Leigh Linne- meier, and Cathy Mitzell, trained with Rosemary E. Vasas toward their October debut as the first female cheerleaders in Culver’s history. Holding what’s left of a “Beat St. Johns” banner, varsity cheerleaders Pete Josendale, Tim Warrick and Bob New- berg lead the first class in boosting the football team. The cheerleaders, advised by Chester A. Marshall, supported the soccer, basketball, and baseball teams. Hop Club president Bert Martin discusses plans for “classi¬ fying” blind dates for a dance weekend with vice president Tom Matlock. New advisor Bernard G. O’Reilly helped the officers coordinate organization of the Infantry and Mount¬ ed Services Weekends. Whether a student was interested in com¬ pleting a page in a stamp album, building a collection of commemorative issues, or financially evaluating his own collection, he could join a club interested in the buy¬ ing, selling, collecting, and trading of stamps on campus. Norman G. Wagner, advisor, helps Bill Arnold select a block at one of the Monday afternoon Stamp Club meetings. Indoor Clubs Offer Diversity Bill Rice, Jim Delay, Rod Fitts, and two visitors found the fascin¬ ation of model railroading and car racing a satisfying Friday night and Monday afternoon hobby. Retired faculty member Col. Edward T. Payson, who helps students to use the layout next to the Canteen, is credited with hav¬ ing amassed the largest model railroad setup in Indiana. Although the game of chess originated in ancient India, it still challenged Chess Club members in their Friday night meet¬ ings. Jim Vorhees matches logic with Pat¬ rick H. Hodgkin, club sponsor. International Club advisor Jerome W. Berryman, Hector Martinez, and Don Hul- bert watch color slides as Collins Wight tells of life in South Viet Nam. In pro¬ moting an awareness of world situations, the International Club sponsored varied discussions, which ranged from General Hu’s speech on the importance of Quemoy and Matsu in the defense of Nationalist China to cadet Jim Green’s talk on the social conditions in Spain. 67 To nearly all except members of the Ski Club, snowy weekend afternoons meant little except a snowball fight or a few hours in the Library. Some of the Ski Club’s 50 members took advantage of the slopes at the first tee of the Academy golf course where they gained considerable experience. Under the supervision of Richard G. Davies, the club made several trips, including one to Michigan. Under the direction of Daniel B. Keller and Col. Kermit C. Z ieg, the Scuba Club practiced during the winter in the swimming pool. At each bi-weekly session, diving tips and underwater techniques were explained and practiced. Membership in the organization was limited to cadets hav¬ ing previous, diving experience. Under the direction of veteran Marine pilot Lt. Col. George H. Linnemeier, the newly formed Aviation Club met monthly. Bill Glick, Ray Mann and Scott Ar- quilla study an aerial map of the Chicago area, while other mem¬ bers listen to Col. Linnemeier discuss the complexities of pow¬ ered flight. Outdoor Clubs Give Recreation Sometimes the gun was larger than the marksman, but that didn’t dampen the enthusiasm of members of Culver’s two gun clubs. The Trap and Sheet Club, advised by Col. Gerald J. Graham, made weekly trips to “the dump,” where club members were given ample opportunity to work on their skill. The Firearms Club, besides providing an opportunity to shoot, made trips to see gun collections. Its major purpose, according to advisor Capt. Melville K. Short, was “to emphasize gun safety on the range through understanding of weapons.” 69 Military, Football Functions Begin ’68 Life The fruition of a long, hot Plebe Week — the first parade. Maj. William A. Roosma, senior army instructor; Col. Melvyn A. Estey, commandant; Dean Ernest B. Benson; Brig. Gen. John W. Dobson, new superintendent; and Jim Goldman, aide-to-superintendent, watch the Corps pass in review. Barber Howard Shock clips Steve Archambault’s hair soon after his return to campus in the fall. For most cadets, the first haircut day and conse¬ quential visit to the Barber Shop in the basement of South Barrack provided all the transition neces- ary to begin the new school year. 70 Besides providing entertainment as a spectator sport, football offered fall afternoon recreation. Here, Chris Bright passes to Murry Henson as Bill Wiggins, Jeff Quay, Don Trites, and Mike Sweeney develop the play. During an early Saturday drill, first classman Len Green shows signs of exasperation as he introduces plebes to the manual of arms, proving that fall quandaries reached old men as well as plebes. The first class added a new event to Fall Festival Weekend activities when it elected a Homecoming Queen. Queen Helen Moulton, date of Bert Martin, and runner-up Cathy Seiple, date of John Schu¬ macher, were formally presented to the Corps at half-time by being driven around the field in Dean John F. Edgell’s Mustang. Band and Battery C Dominate Fall Intramurals On a Company C end sweep with Mark McPherson running interference, Mike Mulvaney cuts for an opening to elude his pursuant, Bob Newberg of Company B. Company C won the game 19-0. Later Company E gained a piece of the regimen¬ tal championship for the second year by battling to a scoreless tie with Band in the championship game. Don Blum of Battery C smashes the ball in an intramural tennis match. Company D won the competition, gathering 37 out of 40 possible points; Company E and Bat¬ tery C tied for the runner-up position. — During the breast stroke event of the intramural swimming meet, Company B’s Bill Lake gasps for a final breath and pulls for the extra tenth of a second which made the difference between victory and defeat. In the final tabulation, Battery C, with 37 points, led Troop B by 6% points for the championship. With referee Dan Hoelscher making the count, Nick Lauridsen of Company E pins Hector Martinez of Troop A in a final step to the heavyweight championship. The intramural wrestling tournament took place over a two day period in November with Troop B winning two of the weight classes and the regimental championship. 73 Early Winter Weather At the Christmas banquet, Whitney Clark finds occasion to comment on the upcoming vacation. The banquet, an annual Academy social event, brought students and facul¬ ty together for a final formal meal before vacation and a concert by the Blue Notes and the Band. Culver staged its own great escape at the start of Thanks¬ giving leave as 884 students left for the last such recess. Plans were announced to add the extra days to Spring Va¬ cation for the 1969 school year. 74 Brings Vacations, Recreation Hardy members of the Ice Hockey Club, including Roger Ferry, Win Roulhac, and Andy Howell, found the 15 minute trek to the pond in the Bird Sanctuary worth the effort. Though a warm spell kept the team from organizing varsity competition, it gained support from Brig. Gen. John W. Dobson, who obtained boards for the pond and assured that the skating surface would be cleared daily. Over Mounted Services Week¬ end, the artillery players defeated the rest of the regiment 3-2 in a closely contested season climax. Though a regimental snowball fight was never officially sanctioned, the first snowfalls found students organizing their own conflicts. Here, Beason Hall, which was off limits twice during the winter, provides the battleground. The early winter’s cold and snow ended in a flu epidemic which hit the campus just before the December comprehensive exams and afflicted nearly 300 cadets. On the day before Christmas vacation, Alex Caulder, Roscoe Howard and the rest of the Corps waited patiently at a tempera¬ ture-taking session in the recreation building to see if they could go home. 75 Winter Intramurals Move Regimental Events Indoors Rick Jennings waits for the return of a serve to Bob ' Warner dur¬ ing an intramural squash match. Troop A won with 15 points in the overall competition; Battery C and Band tied for runner-up with 9 points each. Cadets shot in the prone, sitting and kneeling positions for intra¬ mural rifle competition. Company A captured first place in the November tournament with a total of 1290 points and was closely pursued by Battery A and Company C. One of Troop A’s archers, Robert Thompson, aims at the Olympic target during the first intramur¬ al archery tournament. Troop A took first place with 1451 points, followed by the Band with 1366 points and Company B with 1342 points. The four Troop A archers were John Reese, Phil Goldberg, Seth Donson and Thompson. 76 Maj. William A. Roosma, coach of the Vedette in¬ tramural All-Stars, drills the team in preparation for its 51-49 victory over the Faculty Flashes. Company E took the regimental basketball crown in the A-league competition by going undefeated, and Troop A won the B-league title. John Casner of Company D strains for distance in the intramural long-jump competition. In a final meet, Company D lost the regimental champion¬ ship to the Band, whose relay team of Dave Schwaiger, Rex Becker, Denny Hansell and Ken Kredens set a new school record of 2:02. 77 Ned Newman, Mike Thieme and their dates dance to the sounds of “The Great Escape’’ at January’s Infantry Dance. The Infantry and Mounted Services Dance and assorted first, sec¬ ond and third class-sponsored dances provided breaks from the routine for the student body. During 1968, there were more dances than in any previ¬ ous year at Culver. Big Weekends Break Dreary Midwinter Hours Even the faculty found excitement at the first class Winter Carnival March 2. Cmdr. John F. Roos evinced skill with water pistols at the Battery C Shooting Gallery. The new winter event cleared nearly $100 for the 1968 Olympic Fund and provided a morale booster through booths, strolling min¬ strel bands and abundant food. 78 Moderator Dean Ernest B. Benson ac¬ knowledges D Company captain John Reitman’s response to a question in the third annual Vedette Quiz Bowl. Com¬ pany C eventually won the event by de¬ feating the Band, 215-170. A dreary third grading period afternoon at the Library seemed wasted to some cadets, but others found an academic fascination to pass the hours. As G. I. ended March 16, the last Saturday before Spring Vacation, a fire in the kitchen of the Mess Hall livened the weekend. The blaze was soon extinguished by joint efforts of cadets and the Culver Fire Department. 79 Spring Intramurals Allow Diverse Participation Chris Hicks pitches to Craig Edwards as the Bat¬ tery C softballers prepare for the spring season. James Whitcomb Riley leads off second base. t Spring soccer gave players an opportunity to practice puddle-hopping and learn more about Culver’s fastest growing sport. In a closely contested bout (right), Mark Krone fends off an attack from John Chipman. The cli¬ max of the intramural boxing tournament came with a bout between Kevin Fiske and Hector Martinez in the 165-pound class. Martinez won the bout in a split desicion. Bob Suhr practices hitting shag-balls before the intramural golf season. Company teams had four regulars and two alternates. Matches are nine holes and the season ends in late May with a student tournament. Rick Hauer, Company C, completes a spike in an intramural volley¬ ball game. Volleyball, a popular winter sport at Culver, is only offered on the intramural level. The champions of the A-league were Company D, and Battery B captured the B-team title. Rick Hauer, Company C, completes a spike in an intermural volley- With the spectre of final exams looming, Steve Baker found it ne¬ cessary to settle down to cram . . . After hours in the classroom, cadets finally got a chance to put into practice the fundamentals of Military Science Tactics on an actual “battlefield” — the Bird Sanctuary — at the annual maneuvers. 82 Commencement Climaxes Spring Student Life Seeking refuge from the chaotic, last minute commence¬ ment preparations, cadets contemplated the upcoming sum¬ mer break while basking in the Aubbeenaubbee sunshine. June 4, 1968 — an end and a beginning. Commencement was the day awaited by everyone. 83 New, Winning Teams One cold, rainy Friday night in October, the entire student body cursed a West Lafayette timekeeper. In No¬ vember, 400 students watched a soccer game after the first class had informed them that soccer is actually played at Culver. Athletic competition permeated varied phases of Culver life. Ninety percent of all officers earned varsity letters, and students’ grades often improved during the athletic seasons. Archery and gymnastics completed seasons as the Academy’s 18th and 19th varsity teams. With the addi¬ tion of archery came the first nationally-sanctioned Regional Junior Olympic Archery Tournament. Gymnas¬ tics developed an undefeated first season. Nine out of 10 fall and winter varsity teams tallied winning seasons. Whether struggling through the first meet of a new sport or wrestling undefeated after seven years of near misses, spirited athletic competition became a necessity for all students. 84 Build Athletic Spirit Grid Struggle Yields .500 Season Culver’s Gordon Graper leaps to block a pass thrown by Terre Haute’s quarterback. The Eagles marched on to a 44-19 victory with touchdowns by Chip Linnemeier, John Schumacher, Roger Bird, John Casner, and two touchdowns and a fieldgoal by Paul Gift. Quarterback Chip Linnemeier sidesteps through a hole in the line as Mike Houston blocks one of Terre Haute’s would-be tacklers. Also protecting are Mark Krone, John Crimmins, and John Casner. 86 Eagle defensive end Dennis Wells overpowers the Terre Haute quarterback. Football: 3-3-1 Culver Opponents 14 .Bremen 26 21 ...

Schumacher caught 7 passes during the season for a total of 66 yards. 87 Although harrassed by a Park School player Eagle defensive halfback Hector Martinez gets a pass off to Steve Brooks who is waiting to clear the ball down field. Attendance at the game, urged by the first class, reached 400 spec¬ tators, who were introduced to soccer in its fifth season at Culver and to the team’s unique north-south spirit reflected by the flags in the background. ‘North - South’ Spirit Sparks Soccer Soccer: 10-2 Culver 0 2 0 3 (Winner) 2 3 4 3 6 4 11 Opponents Argos 1 LaLumiere 0 Argos 1 Bethany Christian 2 LaLumiere (Forfeit) Howe Military 1 Notre Dame (JV) 1 Howe Military 1 Divine Heart 0 Park School 0 Notre Dame (JV) 2 University School 1 Win Roulhac battles a Park School player to maintain Culver’s defensive average of only .85 goals per game. Roulhac and Rick Hauer were elected co-captains for next year’s squad. SOCCER TEAM: Steve Brooks, Al Chandler, Keefe Davis, Ernesto Estrada, Bob Fogel (Co-capt.), Carlos Garcia, Dennis Hansell, Rick Hauer, Drake Haugh, Andy Hodgkin (Co-capt.), Jim Josen- dale (Mgr.), Bob Larsen, Ken Macek, Hector Martinez, Marc Mat- son, Bob May, Dave McCandless, Jan Medusky, John Mehrtens, Dimitri Milovich, Santiago Montufar, Fausto Moscoso, Chuck Osmond, Mitch Padnos, George Roulhac, Donald Russell (Mgr.), Larry Scott (Mgr.), Jim Smith, Steve Swale, John F. Chadwick (Coach), Richard W. Lewis (Asst.

Hodgkin and fellow cocaptain Bob Fogel led the Eagles to the best season in the team’s history. Keefe Davis struggles to maintain a Culver attack against a charging Bethany Christian player. After being behind 2-0, Cul¬ ver rallied to a 3-2 victory xvhen Dennis Hansell kicked the win¬ ning tally with only 50 seconds remaining in the final overtime. The win sparked a closing season win streak of nine games which ended with a romping 11-1 victory over the Bloomington Soccer Club. Taking advantage of a penalty against Park School, Ernesto Estrada attempts to increase the score in a 6-0 victory as John Mehrtens and Santiago Montufar anxiously await the outcome. Montufar, Mehrtens, and Estrada each scored two goals in this game; and, later in the season, Mehrtens broke a Culver record by scoring all four goals in a 4-2 decision over Notre Dame. Individual Effort Builds X-Country Spirit Cross country is a team sport in that a compilation of singu¬ lar scores contributes to the team total, but each individual runs with his own hopes and fears in a test of endurance. Here, Doug Scholz increases his lead midway through the Two miles of hills, hopes and pain show in the face of vars¬ ity runner Al BeVier at the finish of the final dual meet of the season, against South Bend Adams. Culver upset Adams by a score of 27-28. Three year letterman Joe Cummings sprints for the tape amid cheers from the all too infrequent spectators. Twice during the season, between halves of football games, the harriers ran meets which ended in front of the football stands after two laps around the athletic field. 90 Cross Country: 8-3 Culver Opponents 29 .Wheeler 28 19 .Hebron 40 15 Millersburg 50 25 .

Culver easily won 17-46. The team got its season off to a slow start, after beginning practice a week before school opened, but ended with five consecutive victories. Reflecting in a final moment of meditation and prayer, the team gathers with Coach David L. Burke before a race. 91 Basketball coach Thomas E. Baker takes time out to dis¬ cuss game strategy and give his players a rest. In his third year as varsity coach, he completed his best season with a 14-6 record. Co-captain and most valuable player Tom Matlock shoots over a Cranbook rival as fellow co-captain Gordie Delk dashes in. Matlock led the team in scoring with 312 total points to become the fourth highest scorer in Culver’s his¬ tory. Delk led the team with 250 rebounds and set a single game scoring record of 23 against Hawken School.

Baron was named the most improved player on the varsity squad. Gordie Delk scrambles for a loose ball from a Cranbook de¬ fender as teammates Don Baron and Chip Linnemeier await the outcome. On a fast break, Rich White outmaneuvers a Cranbrook defender to drive for a layup. The Eagles capitalized on fast breaks to score their best record since 1952. John Crimmins, the only starting junior, leaps above outstretched arms in an attempt for a basket. Crimmins started at forward along with Tom Mat- lock. Don Baron and Rich White played guard, and Gordie Delk played center. 93 Determination, Technique Earn Wrestlers First Undefeated Year The referee acknowledges exhausted co¬ cap tain Platt Hill’s victory in the four¬ way C.M.A. Invitational Tournament. Hill took first place in the 120-pound weight class to raise his season record to 16-1 and his four-year career record to 47-13. He received the Quarter Cen¬ tury Trophy and the Coaches Trophy, an award given to the member of the team who is elected by visiting coaches as Culver’s most valuable wrestler. Senior Dan Hoelscher, the Eagles’ 180- pound wrestler, strains to pin his Val¬ paraiso opponent. Hoelscher received the Quarter Century Trophy awarded to seniors on the team who accumulate at least 25 victories during their Culver wrestling careers. Co-captain-elect Roger Bird carefully plans his strategy for a takedown. Coach Colin W. Stetson spent hours of practice teaching his wrestlers to think and react quickly and aggressively in meets.

Scharff, a junior and two-year varsity wrestler, re¬ ceived the High Point Trophy. Coach Colin W. Stetson demonstrates a sitout to the wrestling squad and ex¬ plains fundamentals which every wrest¬ ler must master to excell in wrestling. Wrestlers, from the team co-captains to the smallest plebe in the fourth and fifth class sports program, learned from Coach Stetson that “technique is as important in wrestling as strength.” For all wrestlers, this technique includ¬ ed the determination which brought an undefeated season. Co-captain Lou Schlotterer controls his opponent during a dual meet against Clay. Schlotterer, a three-year varsity letterman, had a record of 16-1 and re¬ ceived the Quarter Century Trophy. 95 Eagle T ankmen Swim T o Record-Breaking Season Second classman Doug Robertson executes a difficult back jack knife during competition against South Bend Washing¬ ton. Underclass divers Paul Krone and Bob Caldwell proved valuable assets to the team. SWIMMING TEAM: Roger Benson, Dave Brown, Bob Caldwell, Mike Califf, Nick Capos, Whitney Clark, Tom Clendenin, Jerry Collins, Charlie Conner, Joe Cummings (Co-capt.), John Curtis, Ken Fisler, Carlos Garcia, Steve Hawkins, John Hubble, Tom Jones, Bob King, Mark Krone, Paul Krone, Bill Lake, Dan Lake, Andy Lee, Casper Martin, Bryan McQuoid, Jeff Milsom, Rich Rich¬ mond, Doug Robertson, Andy Rorick, Doug Schaff, Mike Schneid¬ er (Co-capt.), Hiram Smith, Jim Stock, John Swain, Steve Swale, Jim Vorhees, Frank W. Walaitis (Coach), William G. Roth (Asst. Coach). Second classman Rich Richmond, co-captain elect, three year letterman and holder of the Tyson Cup, catches his breath after a race. Richmond not only set records in his specialties, breaststroke (1.07.3) and individual medley (1.42.2) but also competed in all of the other events ex¬ cept diving. At the sound of the starter’s gun, Steve Swale, Culver’s re¬ cord breaking backstroker with a time of 1.01.4, lunges for valuable yardage. Coaches Frank W. Walaitis and William G. Roth put particular emphasis on the tankmen’s starts and got record-breaking results. Mark Krone shouts the lap number to start Joe Cummings on the final sprint of the 400 yard freestyle. Krone’s spe¬ cialties were the 60-yard freestyle, where he holds the record of 28.9, and the free¬ style relay, where he followed Bob King. During the season, King made colorful psychadelic posters to build support for home meets. Coach William G. Roth, alumnus and former swimming co-captain, delivers a post-meet talk to a weary team. Led by co-captains Joe Cummings and Mike Schneider, the team relied on depth and versatility to post an 8-3 record against leading competition from three states.

Special accessories helped improve scores in this unsteady posi¬ tion. Jim Goldman, team co-captain and con¬ sistently high-scoring man in competi¬ tion, concentrates on a shot in the standing position. Along with Goldman, Bob Lang, Bill Doucette, Ned Stewart and Chuck Caponigro won first team honors at the Indiana State Rifle Match here in the spring. Kym Mahnke competes for the top position in a junior varsity match with a composite team from the high schools of Gary, Indiana. The junior varsity also entered teams in the Indiana State Rifle Match. Jim Smith and Mike Krempp, in the kneeling position, at¬ tempt to increase Culver’s lead. The riflemen fire three positions in competition: prone, kneeling and standing. A rifleman took daily practice seriously in order to main¬ tain or improve his ranking on the team. Only the top 10 men shot in the weekly matches. Coach Sgt. Maj. Allen B. Chesser carefully grades a tar¬ get with the assistance of co-captain Chuck Caponigro and Dave Lee. One overlooked point could have lost a match for Culver. Rifle: 3-4 Culver Opponents 1183 Marmion Military 1246 1232 . Howe Military 1255 1231 Notre Dame 1178 1231 Howe- Military 1306 1229 . . . .

The num¬ ber one epee man was team cap¬ tain Fred Zimonja. John Fatula, foil’s number two man, beats aside his lunging antagonist’s point and finishes by landing a touch on the repost. This year the meet against Duke and the return meet with Indiana Insti¬ tute of Technology were the only two fencing events at Culver. Sabre’s number three man, Dan Gilbert, closes with his opponent. The most distant of the team’s eight away meets was at Buffa¬ lo, where it fenced New York University and Canada’s Brock University. Foil captain and number one man Chris Held evades a lung¬ ing Duke “Blue Devil” and then fouls him on the mask in the counter-attack. 100 Flecking toward his Duke oppo¬ nent, Culver’s sabre captain, Bill Keslar, lands a solid cut to an exposed flank. The “Blue Devils” successfully defended their southeastern championship at Culver. George Blackburne, to the left, deceives his adversary’s circling attack. Blackburne was the only freshman on the varsity fencing team, but he has had experience at the Pentathlon summer training camp for Junior Olympians.

Throughout the season, Garcia picked up nine firsts—three on the horizontal bar, three on the rings, one on the parallel bars, one on the side horse and one in floor exercise. Although plagued with injuries, Coach C. Mark Howard led the Eagle gymnasts to an undefeated first year season. In the top picture, ring man Chris Hicks does a back lever to secure second place in Culver’s last home meet against Hanover Central. George Fleming performed on the bars and placed first twice on the horizontal and once on the parallel bars. Dimitrije Milovich, top trampolinist and side horse man, took three firsts on the side horse and three on the trampoline. Fourth classman John Tucker compet¬ ed in floor exercise, trampoline and tumbling. Culver Gymnastics: 4-0-1 Opponents 801-2 .DeKalb 721-2 100 . South Bend Adams 44 77 .DeKalb 77 88 1-2 .

Many members of oppos¬ ing teams are Culver alumni who played polo as cadets. Captain Flip Gates outruns opponents to get a shot close to his goal as fresh¬ man Mike Daley maneuvers to cover and get position if the ball comes his way. The polo team began working horses and improving mallet work in the prac¬ tice cages in the fall to prepare for a winning season and trips to Yale, Cor¬ nell, and Toronto. 104 Troopers Develop Horsemanship Techniques In Varsity Polo, Rough Riding and Jumping Bob Niemann (far left), John Austin and team captain Paul Much (right) practice for the Cleveland Olympic Clinic and Show. Jumpers travelled to the Wadsworth Hunter Trials, Trader’s Point Hunt and twice to Niles, Mich. Troopers jumped all year as new coach Capt. Mc¬ Cord Sollenberger started fox hunts, using cadets as the fox, and arranged more outdoor activities for jumpers. In 1969, the jumpers and polo players will have new horses. JUMPING TEAM: James Aubele, John Austin, Perry Bass, Dane Dicke, John Feighner, Rodrigo Fernandez, Flip Gates, Paul Giber- tini, Carl Gordon, Scott Gross, Fred Haden, Brian Haymond, Ted Jones, Paul Much, Robert Niemann, Reed Oppenheimer, Alton Quanbeck, Shelton Rogers, Donald Roon, George Simon, Fred Smoak, Jim Vlasic, Tim Warrick, William Wearly, Walter Witham, Capt. McCord Sollenberger (Coach). The rough riding team, led by Greg Marshall, practices a pyramid on horses in front of the Riding Hall. The rough riders learned such stunts as gymnastics, flips, pyramids over jumps and French mounts. Although not a varsity sport, rough riding was popular among the members of the troop who presented several exhibitions on campus. ROUGH RIDING TEAM: Max Berg- holt, Billy Bowden, Charles Brewer, Rudolph Cecalek, James Cole, Seth Donson, Jon Games, David Gates, Paul Gibertini, Richard Godfrey, Carl Gordon, Felix Granados, Roy Herr- mann, Jeffrey Masteller, William Pritchard, Mark Rudis, Charles Stev¬ ens, Richard Stotts, Scott Taliaferro, Tim Warrick, Jeffrey Wilhelm, MaJ. Raymond K. Walmoth (Coach). 105 Canoers, Crew Work Throughout Year Coach Gordon R. Hough’s winter workouts consisted of miles of running, sprinting, weight lifting and practicing on the rowing machines. During pre season workouts, team captain Nick Lauridsen had much of the responsibility for getting the team in shape. During the season the team planned to row against Marietta and in the Central States Regatta. CREW TEAM: Tom Bleck, Dave Brown, Bruce Campbell, Nick Capos, John Chipman. Mike Conklin, Steve Cummins, Bob Douglas, Mike Field, Kevin Fiske, Gordie Graper, Jim Green, Dave Han- num, Chuck Hauser, Chad Hoffman, Bill Keslar, Curt Laub, Bill Lauer, Nick Lauridsen (Capt.), Greg Marshall, Bert Martin, Tom Matlock, Scott McKee, John Messenger, Jim Miracle, Rene Molina, Kreigh Moulton, Dave Reese, Tom Rentschler, Jerry Robar, Mike Rosell, Terry Rouch, Stan Rubini, John Shadt, Terry Schpok, Ned Stewart, John Warren, Kevin White, Terry Wynne, Gordon R. Hough (Coach), John R. Babcock (Asst. Coach). The coaches followed closely behind the shells correcting individual mistakes in an effort to improve rowing skills and uniformity. The second boat, including John Schadt, Nick Capos, Gordie Graper, Kevin White, Steve Cummings and Kevin Fiske, started rowing on the lake two weeks before Spring Vacation along with the other boats. The crew launched its shells on Lake Maxinkuckee as soon as enough ice had melted to free an area for rowing. They had to carry their shells into the water because the piers had not been installed. During Spring Vacation 10 cadets, coach William P. Garrison and two young faculty daughters made a “Huck Finn” canoe trip down the Tippecanoe, Wabash and Ohio Riv¬ ers. The canoers traveled over 600 miles and camped along the way. CANOE TEAM: Jeff Blair, John Epple, Lew Erwin, Bob Fogel, Matt Garrison, Don Giacchetti, Chris Greenleaf, Dick Gzybowski, Clyde Killian, Steve Kling, Mark Krone, Casper Martin, Jeff Marxen, Marc Matson, Jeff Newton, Keith Old¬ ham (Capt.), Eric Olsen, Frazer Parker, Angel Prieto, Rich Rates, Steve Riley, Lou Schlotterer, Mark Segall, Mike Thrasher, Steve Tilley, Tony Wheeler, William P. Garrison Canoe captain Keith Oldham leads team members Steve Kling, Tony Wheeler, Casper Martin, Bob Fogel, Coach William P. Garrison, Mike Thrasher, Mark Krone, and Twig Greenleaf in a practice race for thier New York trip. The team mil race 27 miles around Manhattan Island against nine other high school and college teams. Resembling a modern dance class, the varsity canoers worked all year under the leadership of captain Keith Oldham toward fall and spring regattas. Before Spring Vacation, the team had made three cold and snowy trips down the Tippecanoe River. 107 Attempting to break a scoreless tie, shortstop Alex Williams is caught in a rundown. Williams was one of the nine returning lettermen, including team captains Mark Bodem and Larry Pritchett. BASEBALL TEAM: Mark Bodem (Co-capt.), Dave Bowers (Mgr.), John Crimmins, Bob Eisele, John Grant, Steve Keahey, Chip Linne- meier, Doug Oliver, Tom Overdeck, Larry Pritchett (Co-capt.), John Reitman, Dick Skor- berg, Ray Stingley, George Tezich, Rich White, Alex Williams, Charles Williams, David L. Nel¬ son (Coach), Channing E. Mitzell (Asst, coach). Rich White, Culver left-fielder, checks his swing after fouling a ball to the left in Culver’s opener April 9 against LaVille. White scored the winning run to clinch a 1-0 Eagle victory. Below, second baseman Bob Eisele connects on the first of his two hits in the game. Eisele started the win¬ ning rally in the bottom of the sixth in¬ ning, which yielded the winning run. In one of Culver’s new dugouts that Gen¬ eral John W. Dobson ordered built, coach David L. Nelson and assistant coach Chan¬ ning E. Mitzell issue instructions just prior to the team’s opening game. 108 Striding ahead of his opponent, co-cap- tain Doug Scholz rounds the third turn in the two mile event. Scholz grabbed the Academy’s two mile records with 10:03.6 outdoors and 10:06.0 indoors. The team had an 8-3 indoor season be¬ fore braving Culver’s unpredictable spring weather. Culver’s hurdlers Jack Shoaf and Gordie Delk strain over hurdles in an attempt to beat out stiff opposition from South Bend Washington. Shoaf and Delk are Culver’s all-around men and biggest point getters. Shoaf is a three-year let- terman and a co-captain, and Delk is a two-year letterman. John Ambrose heaves the shot put with a look of confidence. Am¬ brose is completing his second year on varsity track and is Culver’s number one shot-putter. Shot put was once a weak event in track for Culver but Ambrose has strengthened the team in this department by scoring several meet records. TRACK TEAM: Terry Albright, John Ambrose, Gary Copeland, Lee Couch, Joe Cummings, Gordie Delk, John Dillenger, Drew Dobson, Joel Eckert, John Emery, Stasz Gorski, John Graham, Andy Griffiths, John Hobson, Eric Hughes, Ed Kleckley, Charlie McNagny, Dave Newill, Dan Noland, Chuck Osmond, Spencer Pope, Lee Pringle, Denny Robertson, Doug Scholz (Co- capt.), Mike Scholz, Jack Shoaf (Co-capt.), Bill Short, Arnold Turner, David L. Burke (Coach), A. Coke Smith (Coach). 109 Golf, Tennis Rely On Returning Lettermen TENNIS TEAM: Jeff Adams, Mike Carr, Mike Curts, Rick Jennings, Arnold Kirsch- man, Andy Lee, John Mehrtens, Santiago Montufar (Capt.), Lee Pelton, John Schu¬ macher, Tom Steele, Doug Spitzer, Paul Winsauer, Harvey E. Firari (Coach). GOLF TEAM: Tedd Bean, John Biddulph, David Conway, Bill Dryden, Jim Dunstan, Rick Durkes, Doug Fischesser, Wade Free, Charlie Gholson, Dick Griffin, Bob Larsen, John McGuire, Mark McPherson, Russell Olson, Al Ran- ney, Frank Smith, Eugene Steffes, Paul Sturgill, Chip Wall, Philip White, Steve Wiersum, Thomas E. Baker, (Coach). Team captain Santiago Montufar watches Jeff Adams return a backhand during practice. Both Montufar and Adams play singles and doubles on the varsity squad. Senior John Schumacher (left) serves to an opponent during practice. Return¬ ing lettermen in the first class were John Schumacher, Santiago Montufar, John Merthens and Mike Curts. Jeff Adams was the only returning second class letterman. Coach Harvey E. Firari (right), briefs several players on strategy before prac¬ tice. Mr. Firari led the team to West Lafayette for its first match only a week after returning from Spring Vaca¬ tion. EDITOR’S NOTE: Additional coverage and box scores for all Spring sports appear in the Spring Supplement distributed May 31. Rick Durkes, varsity golf captain, discusses an upcom¬ ing meet with Coach Baker after finishing a pre-season practice round. In front of the new golf clubhouse, Tedd Bean ex¬ plains a problem to coach Thomas E. Baker while John Biddulph, Steve Saun¬ ders, John McGuire, Paul Sturgill, Jim Dunstan, Bill Mullen, Bill Dryden and Chip Wall listen. Competing weekly for team placings, the 21 varsity golfers were divided into a six man A- team, an eight man B-team and a seven man freshman team. Formal Album- Old, New Faces Review Culver When the board of directors select¬ ed Brig. Gen. John W. Dobson as seventh superintendent, he was faced with a problem of emphasis. As an a- lumnus, he chose to re-emphasize Cul¬ ver ' s quality by developing spirit. With the new superintendent came “new direction”—something Gen. Dobson defines as an “increase of em¬ phasis in certain areas.” A major quest has been to develop Culver’s quality in everything from the appear¬ ance of campus grounds to improve¬ ment of the physical plant. The new superintendent has sought closer student-faculty relationship at all levels. He re-evaluated the student and faculty sponsor systems; Gen. Dobson himself has been an avid supporter at varsity practices as well as games. The current emphasis has focused upon athletics, as could be expected from a former Culver and West Point athlete. The purpose of the emphasis has been to instill a feeling of com¬ petition and spirit within the corps. All students were urged to “participate in some form of competitive activity.” The new superintendent has secured equipment for blooming sports clubs and seen successful rookie seasons for varsity gymnastics and archery competition. “Competition contributes to mental as well as physical maturity,” he says, and he believes that as com¬ petition breeds, so must school spirit, an ultimate goal.

Best The Naval Building, built in 1948 as a training area for Summer Naval School students, isn’t completely neglected in the winter months. When not used as a canoe team storage area, Boy Scout meeting place, extra rooms for infirmary patients during epidemics, and sleeping quarters for visiting athletic teams, it is declared off limits. Never¬ theless, the building is a rather tempting place to “catch the rays” in the spring. Albert C. BeVier III Andrew M. Blades 131 Thomas H. Bradford Michael L. Bushnell James L. Brozo Nicholas J.

At a pep session following an assembly three days later, General Dobson recognized Newberg’s status and announced that Coeds would be cheerleaders for the first time in the school’s history.

The year 1968 has been one of political “dropouts;” foreign problems in Korea, Viet N am, Czechoslovakia and Pana¬ ma; civil rights problems connected with the assassination of Martin Luther King; and the gold crisis. All journalism reaches the spirit of those who care enough to read it. The individual’s re¬ action to this presentation of facts shapes a mass attitude—one purpose of education. Roll Call ’68 begins with a 20-page photo essay designed to stimulate a personal realization for all readers, a realization which is one of the purposes of the Culver experience. It is hoped that readers will find a universal truth or philosophy—now or 10 years from now—in the essay which continues through the book with the theme. The basic purpose has been to record the people, places, and events of the 1968 school year with an artistic over¬ tone serving to bring the facts to life as vividly 20 years from now as they are at present in the reader’s mind. This year’s Roll Call is a personalized reflection upon life at Culver in 1968. 171 Personal Perspectives Fulfill a Founder’s Dream The reflections compiled in Roll Call ’68—the individual names in the rosters or the personalities in the pictures—become important in 884 distinctive combinations. Each Culver graduate has built a personal perspective giving him a base of reference and experience for future problems he may encounter. He has succeeded in Henry Harrison Culver’s “environment to build men fit for the citizenship of tomorrow.” Through the mirror of my mind, I see reflections of the way life used to be. —The Supremes 173 174 What of Tomorrow? The graduate can only jump into real life and strive to parallel what he did or failed to do at Culver. He has a perspective of experience to draw upon and realizes that a sense of direction will be essential to success, but no tangible prediction can be made. There is no reflection for the future, only a dream. Perhaps the dream is a bit more realistic because of Culver. Acknowledgements The COVER for the 1968 Roll Call was manufactured by the S. K. Smith Company, Chicago, Jack Bundy repre¬ sentative. It is Grandee Green with a black overtone and a Spanish Grain. The book was bound by the Free Meth¬ odist Publishing House, Winona Lake, Ind. PRINTING for the 64th Roll Call was done on 80-pound Mead Moistrite Matte paper by Indiana Press, Inc., Plym¬ outh, Ind., using the offset method. Headlines, photo es¬ say, and division pages are in Melior. Captions and iden¬ tifications were composed in 8 point Oldstyle Italic, and the rosters are in 6 point Gothic. Photographs, with the exception of Harold Blair ' s portraits and organization pictures for Moffett Studio, Chicago, were taken by amateur photographers on camp¬ us. The approach was to document the significant events and people as realistically as possible. An attempt was made to minimize the effect of the photographer on the event by shooting candidly using natural light. The film and some prints were processed in Chicago by profes¬ sional photo lab specialists, Astra Photo Service, repre¬ sented by Benjamin Lavith and Harold Smolin. Most prints were processed by Culver’s darkroom staff, includ¬ ing Jim Lees, Lew Erwin, and Fred Royce. C OPY AND PAGE DESIGNS were submitted and edited by cadets and faculty daughters. Stephen R. Bachmann assisted Ruth A. Benner in designing the layout. The Spring Supplement, distributed during June Week, is in¬ cluded to give readers coverage for the entire year. Contributions were made by the following: Mrs. Fred Banks, production assistant; David H. Gaskill, ad¬ visor; Robert A. Reichley, public relations director; and W. Robert Matson, development director. The editors ex¬ press their appreciation to the production staff of Indiana Press, Inc., and the aforementioned contributors. — R. M.
