I F rom the Age that is Past: 327 Years of Harvard S1325 ohn Harvard arrived in the Colony of Massa- chusetts Bay as a member of the great Puritan migra- tion, seven years after the founding of Boston. He was thirty years old at the time, a graduate of Em- manuel College, Cambridge, and an ordained minister. His birthplace was in the Southwark district of Lon- don, his mother was from the Rogers family of Stratford-on-Avon, his father a pious London butcher. Harvard reached New England with a wife, a small family, and a large library. His residence he estab- lished in Charlestown, where he became a Townsman and assistant pastor of the parish church. Less than a year after his arrival, in September of 1638, he died of consumption. Half of an estate he had inherited from his mother-who had in turn amassed it from the bequests of her three husbands and the proceeds of a tavern she operated in London-and the whole of his library, Harvard left to the theological school which the colony was then building. For this, the first private contribution to higher education in the Ameri- can colonies, the school was named Harvard College. The College had been established on October 28, 1636, by an act of the colonial government of Massa- chusetts. After some consideration had been given the village of Marblehead, Newtown was selected as a site for the school and the name of the little rural community was changed to Cambridge. Nathaniel Eaton, a graduate of Trinity College, Cambridge, was appointed the first Headmaster. With a grant he received from the colony he purchased a reasonably sizeable piece of land near the middle of the village, including part of the cattle pastures which he soon named the Yard. In 1637 he began the con- struction of a wooden frame house, planted apple trees, and erected fencing. The intention of the colony in establishing the College had been to provide an education for future ministers, and Eaton operated. the school as a strict Puritan seminary. He gathered into the boarding house a fair number of students, mostly young boys, the sons of prominent colonial families. Besides the headmaster, the first faculty consisted of a man named Briscoe and Eaton's wife, who acted as Steward, super- intending room and board. Despite the rather substantial conhdence Eaton mus- tered at the time of his appointment, his administra- tion proved to be uncommonly disastrous. He was an inordinately harsh disciplinarian who regularly beat his scholars with a large cudgel he kept within con- venient reach. After apparently tiring of this sport he once administered a severe flogging on his assistant, Briscoe, allegedly striking him across the head some two hundred times. Along with his wife, he was hnally ordered before the General Court to account for his conduct. When the Mistress Eaton confessed to serv- ing the students bread made of heated sour meal, goat's dung in their hasty pudding, and mackerel with their guts in them,l' the Eatons were removed from their College posts. During 1639, immediately after Eaton's dismissal, Samuel Shepard directed the business of the school, and in 1640 the Rev. Henry Dunster was designated the first President of Harvard College. Dunster, when he received the appointment, had only recently arrived in New England, but he brought with him impressive credentials as an academic. He graduated from Mag- dalene College, Cambridge, was fairly distinguished as a Hebrew scholar and, more urgently, possessed the ideas and imagination upon which a badly needed College re-organization could be founded. The bequest of John Harvard had provoked further generosity from other individuals in the colony, and a respectable endowment was beginning to accumulate when Dunster came to Cambridge. A good portion of these funds was committed to the erection of a second College structure, a large, wooden, three-story building with an impressive hall and peaked gables, which Eaton had started and Dunster completed not long after assuming his duties. With less than decent sup- port from the colonial government, Dunster managed to collect enough revenue to maintain the expanding College. Dunster succeeded also in instituting a new and much sturdier curriculum, adding science and classics to the theology studies. ln 1642, two years after be- coming President, he conducted Harvard's first Com- mencement, and by 1651 managed to confer degrees on a class of ten young scholars. He had by this time established an inviting reputation for the College both in the colonies and in England. Harvard graduates were now starting to replace Oxford and Cambridge men as ministers and magistrates. Some, like Sir George Downing fafter whom London's Downing Street was later namedj, returned to England where they obtained more or less distinguished positions in British society and government. Still more notable achievements of the Dunster years were the securing of the Charter of 1650, under which authority Harvard still functions, and the estab- lishment of the first Board of Overseers, then includ- ing Governor John Winthrop, other colonial officials, and the ministers of near-by communities. But the distinction of Dunsterls performance as President, the Puritan community quickly forgot when he became involved in a rather intense religious contro- versy prompted by his opposition to the baptism of infants. His opinions were declared heretical by the General Court, he was publicly admonished and forced to resign from the Presidency. He left oflice in 1654 and died soon after. The Rev. Charles Chauncey, once a Professor of Greek and Hebrew at Trinity College, Cambridge, succeeded Dunster. He was elected only after agree- ing not to propagate or even express certain of his religious beliefs which were considered unorthodox and, though his term as President lasted eighteen years, he did little to develop the institution. He spent ten years erecting an Indian College which succeeded in graduating only one student and was finally torn down. The bricks from that building were later used in the construction of Stoughton Hall with the pro- vision that should an American Indian ever again apply to Harvard he Would be allowed to live there rent free. After failing in several attempts to have his salary raised, Chauncey died in 1672 and was replaced by the Rev. Leonard Hoar of the Class of 1650, the first Harvard graduate to be elected President. Within a short time he became extremely unpopular among the students, who eventually deserted en masse, forcing him to resign after serving less than three years. He Was succeeded by the Rev. Urian Oakes, Whose only memo- rable distinction as President was that he died during a total eclipse of the sun. Thereafter the Presidency Was declined by four different people, finally being ac- cepted by the Rev. John Rogers in 1682. He remained only a year, however, and after a short period of vacancy the President's ofhce came to be occupied by the Rev. Increase Nlather. Mather was one of the most prominent and out- spoken members of the Massachusetts colony, he was the pastor of North Church in Boston and one of the strictest and most conservative of the colonial Calvin- ists. Although his name brought prestige to the Col- lege, he spent very little time in Cambridge. More concerned with presiding over the witch hunts in Salem and the affairs of his church in Boston, Mather left the management of Harvard to other College oflicers. He held his post for sixteen years, however, zeal- ously attempting to guard the College against the creeping liberalization of colonial mores. The Over- seers finally dismissed him, his efforts to institute a strong religious test for College admission were re- buked, and he and his son, Cotton Nlather, turned their interests to the founding of Yale College in New Haven. There, presumably, the piety of New England youth would be safe from violation. Paul Revere View-1767 ' By the end of the seventeenth century when Mather was removed, Harvard had become a prosperous and fairly renowned institution. The College had been granted several new plots of land, was receiving gener- ousgrants from the education-minded of Europe as we-ll as the colonies, and was still expanding. The College owned a press now, the hrst in America, and two good-sized buildings. The student body remained under a hundred in number but, like the faculty, con- tinued to grow. After Mather the College's vice-president, the Rev. Samuel VVillard, presided over the school until his death in 1707. John Leverett of the Class of 1680 Ca lawyer and grandson of former colonial governor Sir John Leverettj succeeded Willa1'd, becoming the first layman President. Throughout these times, the Mathers and their doctrinaire followers waged inces- sant attacks on the more liberal college oflicers, ac- cused them of conniving with the Devil, and urged their dismissal. Cotton Mather tried on frequent oc- casions to have himself appointed President, staging several intrigues against Leverett, but the conserva- tives were always resisted: it was for this that the school was first called 'fGodless Harvard. During Leverett's Presidency, Massachusetts Hall was constructed and in the term of his successor, the Rev. Benjamin Wadsworth, VVadsworth House was built to serve as the first Presidential residence. The Rev. Edward Holyoke, a minister from Marble- head, succeeded Wadsworth in 1773 to begin a term of thirty-two years duration. Fundamentalists con- tinued to harrangue the College for lack of religious stamina and the College continued to resist their on- slaught. Jonathan Edwards took up the old Godless Harvard routine in a sermon before the student body and visiting English clerics joined in the general denunciation. Holyoke hnally decided that what Harvard really needed was a College Chapel. The funds for such a building were obtained from the estate of Samuel Holden, a London merchant who had created a bulky trust fund for philanthropic purposes Hsuch as promot- ing true Religion, l mean Sobriety, Righteousness, and Godlinessf, Holden Chapel was completed in 1744 and began to play a thoroughly unique role in the history of the College. lt remained a place of worship only a little more than twenty years. ln 1769, when British troops occupied Boston, the Massachusetts legislature complained to the Royal Governor that they could not effectively deliberate under military rule and asked that the army be removed from the city. The Gover- nor removed the legislature instead, installing the lower house in Holden Chapel and the upper chamber 'Q-in another College building. During the Revolution, Holden Hrst became an army courthouse, then a barracks for American troops. After the war, a lumber storage room occupied the building and later the College's new fire engine. It was then also the seat of the Engine Society, an under- graduate volunteer fire company which the College finally banned because of the extensive damage it Increase Mather caused everytime a fire started in Cambridge. ln 1783, Holden was converted into the first quarters for the new Medical School and had added to its fixtures a storage room for cadavers, skeletons and the like, which became the frequent prey of undergraduate prankery. Holden was subsequently transformed into a chemical lecture room, a dormitory, a clubhouse, a musical theatre, a museum, a recitation hall, a labora- tory, and, finally, a general purposes auditorium. Hollis Hall was also erected in Holyoke's time and so was the second Harvard Hall. The first Harvard had been completely demolished by the fire of 1764, which also claimed all but one volume of John Har- vard's original library. The first student riots, the Great Butter Rebellion, raged for a month in 1766 when the College refused to desist in serving what undergraduates referred to as butter that stinkethf' Two years later, disturbed by the oppression of their tutors, the students rioted again, breaking windows and supposedly endangering the lives of College officers. But pre-Revolutionary politics almost wholly con- sumed the atmosphere of the College during this time. The spirit of the student body became firmly patriotic: when several young Tories brought tea into the Col- lege dining hall, they barely escaped alive. The Great and General Court of Massachusetts convened in Holden Chapel and Harvard Hall now, and students frequently cut classes to listen to the orations of James Otis and Samuel Adams. ln emulation of these and other patriotic orators, a group of undergraduates founded the Speaker's Club which shortly became the Institute of 1770 and later the Hasty Pudding. President Holyoke died in 1769 and was succeeded by the Rev. Samuel Locke, who served an uneventful three years. The Rev. Samuel Langdon became Presi- dent in 1774 and remained in office through the Revolution. General Washington took command of the Conti- nental Army on the Cambridge Common in 1775, Wadsworth House became his first headquarters and the other College buildings were used as troop bar- racks. The students, the faculty, the College clock and other paraphernalia were removed to Concord during the seige of Boston, returning to Cambridge in time to celebrate the Declaration of Independence and the eight Harvard men who signed it. John Hancock was elected Treasurer of the College, George Wash- ington received a Doctorate of Laws, and General Burgoyne was held prisoner in Apthorp House. The College was reimbursed for damage done by American troops and the lead taken from the roof of Harvard Hall for making bullets was replaced. After the war, Harvard strolled back to its internal routine. The College had by now abandoned the ancient practice of ranking students by their social status and the undergraduates were, in general, enjoying more independence than in earlier times. ln 1780 they pre- sented President Langdon with a petition suggesting that he was unfit for the office of preacher of the Christian religion, and still more for that of Presi- dent, and demanded his ouster. Two days later, Langdon resigned. Joseph Willard, earlier a coastline sailor, ascended to the Presidency in 1781. Remembering perhaps the circumstances of his predecessor's retirement, he found discipline in the College a bit lax for his liking and set about to remedy things. Through the course of his administration, he made several revisions in the laws governing undergraduates and sought always to pre- vent their minds from wandering into the entrails of frivolous pursuit. All scholars, the rules of 1798 read, shall at sun- set on the evening preceeding the Lord's Day, lay aside all their diversions and retire to their chambers and not unnecessarily leave themg and all disorders on said evening shall be punished in like manner as violations of the Lord's Day. And it is enjoined upon every scholar carefully to apply himself to the duties of re- ligion on said day. Whoever shall profane the day by unnecessary business, or visiting, or walking on the Common, or in the streets or fields of the town of Cambridge, or shall use any diversions, or otherwise behave himself disorderly or unbecoming the season, shall be fined, admonished, suspended, or rusticatedf' Blasphemy, fornication, and forgery were punish- able by expulsion, a student found guilty of singing lewd songs or engaging in filthy conversation could be fined one dollar. The charge for tardiness at pray- ers was eleven cents and for absence, thirty-three. Cards, dice, and games for money were forbidden. An undergraduate could not be an actor in, a spectator at, or in any ways concerned in, any stage plays, inter- ludes, or theatrical entertainments in the town of Cam- bridge. All students were prohibited from associat- ing with any person of dissolute morals g festive occasions were banned from Harvard property. The College laws closely regulated matters of dress -uniform blue-grey coats with class distinguishing cuff buttons were prescribed undergraduate apparel: no part of the garments could be made of silk or lace. The laws encouraged students to wear academic gowns at public events and restrained them from leaving the vicinity of the College without a coat, cloak or gown, and hat. A scholar who wears women's apparel is liable to admonition, degradation, suspension, rustica- tion, or expulsion. West View of Harvard College-1850 , resident wiiiafa died in 1804. with the and of his term and the end of the century, Harvard had IQHSSCC1 168 years-a growing institution but still a very simple one. The college shared the extreme poverty of. all Niew England, Edward Everett Hale wrote of this PC1'1Od. That poverty had this merit, that the people did not know they were poor, but thought they were prosperous. During the first years of the nine- teenth century, there were five professors and six tutors on the faculty, the graduating classes ranged from forty to sixty men. After leaving the President's office empty for two years, the College selected Samuel Webber, a scientist and member of the faculty, to be Willard's successor. Webber provided the school with the Massacliusetts Hall sundial, and not much else. In 1807, bad food in the College dining hall again incited rioting, now the Rotten Cabbage Rebellion. Large numbers of stu- dents- assembled under a tree across from the south entry of Hollis Hall, condemned the food, the faculty, the College, and everything else in sight until several leaders of the riots were dismissed and order restored. Their protests were not very successful but the tree became known as Rebellion Elm, providing a ready site for future riots and general revelry. The Rev. John Thornton Kirkland became Har- vard's fourteenth President on the death of Webber in 1810. The appointment of Kirkland, a Unitarian and pastor of Boston's then new, and highly liberal, South Church, brought the final alienation of the old Calvinist factions. They abandoned the College to Unitarian domination and once more resolved to build a college which would serve their principles. They soon founded Amherst College. Kirkland proved to be one of the most successful and most popular of all Harvard's Presidents. Dur- ing the eighteen years of his administration, the school grew from a college to a university. The Medical School developed to maturity, the Law and Divinity Schools were founded, and Harvard expanded rapidly. Holworthy Hall was built in 1812 with proceeds from a state lotteryg Charles Bulfinch, a graduate of 1781 and the greatest American architect of the time, de- signed University Hall, which became the academic center in 1815. The faculty was enlarged, the cur- riculum broadened, and the endowment greatly in- creased. Student life, in those times, was gradually becoming more comfortable and more enjoyable. The strictest rules were relaxed and free will given a freer hand. If the food was no better at least now there was more of it. Kirkland closed down the old f'Buttery -a large shed adjacent to Harvard Hall Where students had come to collect milk, bread and butter for break- fast and supper-and replaced it with three meals a day in the College dining hall. Although the hazing of freshmen continued, they were no longer required to run errands for tutors and upperclassmen as they had for a long, long time. But still there was unrest in the undergraduate body. ln 18191, a crockery and bread fight started in the din- ing rooms in University Hall and turned into another rebellion when several of the participants were sus- pended. Sophomores and freshmen, including a young Ralph Waldo Emerson, met under Rebellion Elmi' and voted to Withdraw in a body if their classmates were not reinstated, The President refused their de- mands and thestudents resigned. Two weeks later they returned and the uprising ended. In April of 1823, another great revolt ensued, be- ginning under 'i'Rebellion Elm and spreading through- out the Yard. Seniors threw cannonballs from the upper windows of Yard halls, buckets of ink were splashed about the buildings, explosions and bonfires Were started, and thirty-seven of a class of seventy students were dismissed.

Extra-curricular organizations flourished in the nineteenth century, especially during the two Kirkland decades. There were several associations still lingering from the late seventeen hundreds: the lnstitute of 1770 remained an independent organization, both social an'd literaryg the Phi Beta Kappa which had been started as a secret society in 1779 discarded its mysticism in 1831 and revealed that Philosophy, the guide of life was the meaning of its secret Greek lettersg the Porcellian or Pig Club of 1791 merged with an outfit called Knights of the Square Table in 1831 to prolong its existence as a social fraternity, and the Hasty Pudding Club of 1795 still met weekly, still served pots of its namesake pudding, and in 1844, performed its first burlesque. Other organizations established themselves as the century progressed. The history of Harvard journal- ism begins with the 1810 publication of the Harvard Lyceum, an ambitious little literary journal which printed entries in Latin, Greek, Hebrew, and English. The periodical's editors included Edward Everett and Samuel Gilman, the author of 'lFair Harvard, and its subject matter ranged from discourses on The Prob- ability of the Return of the Dark Ages to poetry and moralizing fiction. But the Lyceum lasted only through eighteen issues and ceased publication with a warning- 'lThis is the first paper that ever was attempted by the students of Harvard. lf it is not the last, it shall Abbott Lawrence Lowell not be for want of our admonition. The legacy which we leave to our collegiate posterity, is our advice that they enjoy all those exquisite pleasures, which literary seclusion affords, but that they do not strive to com- municate them to others. Still, another publication-the thirty-two page Har- fuard Register-appeared in 1827 only to expire in less than a year. The Collegian, with Oliver Wendell Holmes as a contributor, published six numbers in 1830 and quickly disappeared. James Russell Lowell and several classmates then produced Harfoardiana Which managed to survive for three years. The flar- fvard Magazinie came out in 1854 and, surprisingly enough, continued publication for almost a decade. The Collegian re-organized a short while later but was suppressed by the faculty after three issues, it changed its name to the Advocate in May of 1866 and survived as a fortnightly. The Magenta, which. later became the Crimson, organized in 1873. lts first competitor, The Echo, appeared in 1879, and its second, the Daily Herald, was issued three years later. The Echo finally perished and the Herald merged with the Crimson leaving Har- vard with only one newspaper until 1895 when a short- lived News entered the market for a year. The Crimson then had to depend on the Lampoon, which had arrived in 1876, for its only source of rivalry until 1924 when John Monro started the Journal, a better newspaper than the Crimson but destined to last only through its first year. The Lampoon's sole accomplishment was the fathering of Life magazine. The most imaginative organization founded in the nineteenth century was the notorious Med. Fac., a society created in 1819 as a parody on the Medical School Faculty. Its members held bogus professor- 1 Charles William Eliot ships with titles in a doggerel they developed, later to be called Pig Latin. They issued parodies of the College catalogs and frequently conferred hon- orary degrees, once to Czar Alexander of Russia Who, thinking the degree legitimate, sent the Med. Fac. a valuable set of surgical instruments as an ex- pression of appreciation. The organization was even- tually banned by the faculty but maintained itself as a secret society, admission being based on the execution of some prank which, if discovered, was punishable by expulsion from the College. The Med. Fac. was last heard from in 1905 when an applicant for member- ship was caught stealing the bust of Phillips Brooks from Phillips Brooks House. J Josiah Quincy, Boston's reform-minded mayor, ac- cepted the Presidency in 1829, after the retirement of Kirkland. He soon became Widely disliked among the students and Within a few years the ground around Rebellion Elm was once again crowded with under- graduates. The violent uprisings of 1834 began over a dispute between a freshman and a tutor, ended in court proceedings and the dismissal of virtually the whole sophomore class. Dane Hall, the first Law School building, and Gore Hall into which the College's forty thousand volume library was moved, were completed by Quincy and the Bi-Centennial celebrations were held in the middle of his term. His was a period of considerable expan- sion. There followed after Quincy a gaggle of five minor Presidents-Edward Everett, Jared Sparks, the Rev. James Vllalker, Cornelius Conway Felton, and the Rev. Thomas Hill. ln 1849, Professor John Webster murdered and dissected Dr. George Parkman in a Medical School Laboratory, generating Harvard's most embarrassing scandal since Mrs. Eaton left goat's dung in the hasty pudding. Charles William Eliot, a thirty-five-year-old chemist, was elected President in 1869 to begin the longest and in many ways most important administration in the history of the University. He presided over the most radical changes Harvard had yet experienced, watched it make the final transition from a simple college to a major university. He re-organized the Law, Medical, and Divinity Schools, established the Graduate School, and helped institute Radcliffe College. He improved the elective system and in turn the curriculum, vastly liberalized the rules governing undergraduates, abol- ished compulsory prayers, and tripled enrollment. The life of a student became a rather pleasant thing in the Eliot years. Self-discipline was now the general order and for the hrst time students roamed freely about the countrysideg Artemus Ward suggested that Harvard College is situated in the Parker House Bar. Undergraduates could choose their own living space with accommodations offered them in the plush new dormitories along the Gold Coast row or in the older buildings of the Yard. There were great men to teach them-James, San- tayana, Palmer, Royce, Kittredge, Taussig, and Dun- bar-and there was great independence in which to learn. Evangelinus Apostolides Sophocles and later Charles Townsend Copeland held forth from their rooms in the Yard. Besides being distinguished schol- ars and great teachers they were also perpetual sources of amusement: though Copey never exercised his right as Boylston Professor of Rhetoric and Oratory to graze a cow on the lawns of the Yard, Sophocles was said to have kept chickens in his room, naming them after the wives of faculty members and conversing with them at great length. The increasing numbers of students provided a new diversity for the student body but at the same time diminished the storied class spirit. The intimacy of the smaller classes all but disappeared and revered customs, like the awarding of a jack knife to the ugliest member of the graduating class, had to be abandoned. The College observed its 250th anniversary in 1885 but the festivities of the occasion proved less festive than planned. Grover Cleveland declined an honorary degree, explaining that his education was inadequate for such an honor, and the President of Princeton stalked away after taking offence at a poem delivered by Oliver Wendell Holmes. Eliot retired from office in 1909 and Abbott Law- rence Lowell succeeded him. Lowell had previously been a Professor of Govern- ment and a few days after his election to the Presi- dency, he lectured his Government 1 class on some of the principles which would be applied in his adminis- tration. When I was a student here in College, he said, 1 had very definite opinions as to how some things should be conducted, which 1 thought were Well worth listening to though they never were listened to. I still believe those opinions were worth something. Now I hope you will feel free to make your opinions known for 1 believe in the undergraduate View of things. The interest of the student body is of the greatest importance to me. And 1 hope you will feel perfect confidence in me for we must work together in building up the noblest institution in the land. That continued to be Lowell's overwhelming attitude throughout his stay in oHice. He sought out construc- tive opinion wherever he could find it and acted upon it whenever he could. The innovations of the Lowell times included the House Plan, general examinations, reading period, the tutorial system, and the fields of concentration program. The major constructions during his adminis- tration, besides the Houses, were Widener Library, the Fogg Art Museum, the Business School, labora- tories for chemical, physical, and biological research, Memorial Church, and additions to the Law School. The endowment of the University under Lowell, rose from slightly more than twenty million dollars to roughly one hundred and twenty million. James Bryant Conant, a research chemist, became President in -1933 with the retirement of President Lowell. Throughout his term in office, Conant was constantly embroiled in political questions. He early became a figure of national prominence, serving on governmental advisory boards and speaking out on controversial issues. He was a supporter of Roosevelt and the New Deal, urged intervention in World War ll, and advised the government to develop the atomic bomb. The chief internal accomplishments of the Conant administration were the institution of General Educa- tion, the establishment of the University Professor- ships, and the development of the National Scholar- ships program. The Harvard Tercentenary was celebrated in 1936. Secretary of State George C. Marshall first out- lined the Marshall Plan speaking at the commence- ment of 1948. Conant resigned in 1953 to become High Commissioner to Germany and Nathan Marsh Pusey was elected the twenty-fourth President. With the settling of 327 years of history, Harvard comes now from the age that is past to the age that is waiting before. -s-- 'kim-:X--, .,,.-- ,-,: ,'..- - -,-. . .

Watson, professor of Biology, examfnes the Watson-Crick model of DNA 46 When James D. Watson stepped into a class- room in the Biological Laboratories on Octo- ber 18, 1962 to give a 9 a.m. lecture to Biology 150 CThe Biology of Virusesj, his students broke into loud applause, for they had already heard the exciting news. Re- porters from local papers and national press services ran in and out of the room trying to get interviews with the 34-year-old pro- fessor of Biology, but Watson managed to finish his lecture before holding a formal news conference at 10 o'clock. The cause of all this excitement had been chalked on the blackboard in a dramatically concise sentence: Dr. Watson has just won the Nobel prize? In awarding the 1962 Nobel prize for Medicine and Physiology to the three men responsible for the discovery in 1953 of the molecular structure of DNA, Stockholm's Royal Caroline Institute of Medicine and Surgery recognized one of the most exciting breakthroughs in the attempt to understand the chemical basis of life. Watson shared the 349,656 prize with Francis H. C. Crick, his co-worker in 1953, and with Maurice H. F. Wilkins, whose X-ray studies of DNA made possible the now-famous Watson-Crick model of the molecule. Interestingly enough, the previous yearls Nobel prize fortMedicine and Physiology also went to a Harvard Faculty member-Georg von Bekesy, senior Research fellow in Psychophysics. Watson became the eighth Harvard professor to re- ceive this prize and the tenth Harvard Nobel laureate. Since joining the Harvard Faculty in 1955, Watson has been a familiar figure around the Biological Laboratories on Divinity Avenue. His lectures on genetics in Biology 2 have been most popular, the 37th Annual Con- fidential Guide, in an expansive moment, called them a joyf' In addition to these pedagogical duties, Watson has been actively engaged in research, primarily on the mech- anisms of protein synthesis in the cell. Watson was born in Chicago in 1928 and got his B.S. degree in 1947 from the Uni- versity of Chicago. In 1950 he received his Ph.D. from Indiana University. Watson spent the next years abroad as a National Research Council Fellow, doing research tirst in Copenhagen f1950-511 and then in Cambridge, England C1951-521. On his return he became a Senior Research Fellow at the California Institute of Technology, where he remained until 1955 , when he came to Harvard. Watson was appointed Associ- ate Professor of Biology in 1958 and Pro- fessor in 1961. During his stay in England, Watson joined Crick to investigate the structure of DNA Cdeoxyribose nucleic acidj, which had al- ready been identified as the genetic substance of cells. Information on its chemical com- position suggested that it was a very long, thin molecule made up of sugar groups C deo- xyribosej, phosphate groups, and nitrogen- containing Hbasesf' Further, X-ray diffrac- tion patterns of fibrous DNA Cdetermined by Wilkinsj indicated that the form of the molecule was a double helix. From these bits of information, Watson and Crick built up a hypothetical structure of the DNA molecule that seemed to take into account all of the observations then available. Their model consisted of two strands of alternating sugar and phosphate groups wound about a common axis as a double helix. The bases were attached to the sugar groups and projected toward each other from opposite strands. Finally, hydro- gen bonds between the base-pairs formed rung-like links between the two strands. Geneticists had always assumed the hered- itary material of cells would somehow be able to reproduce itself in order that genetic information might be passed on from gener- ation to generation. The most important feature of the Watson-Crick model was that Mayor Willy Brandt it indicated how the DNA molecule might replicate itself, for the two scientists hy- pothesized that the two strands of the mole- cule were complementary, that is, that the arrangement of groups on one strand determined the arrangement on the other. Thus, if the strands were separate, each might be able to form its complement if the necessary components were available, and in this way two molecules of DNA would result, each identical to the original one. A further suggestion was that the specific arrangement of bases along the strands of the molecule constituted a code by which genetic information could be transmitted in cell division. This was a major triumph of molecular biology-the first sound attempt to explain such an important aspect of life as heredity in purely molecular terms. Subse- quent experiments have proved the Watson- Crick model of DNA correct, and many re- searchers are now trying to break the DNA code. , After completing his work on the structure of DNA, Watson turned his attention to pro- tein synthesis, a subject which still holds his attention. DNA provides a means of storing and transmitting genetic information, infor- mation which t'tells the cell what to do. The directions encoded in DNA must somehow be expressed concretely, and the means of expression are special proteins called en- zymes,'7 which catalyze the life reactions of the cell. A current theory is that each gene Ca gene may be thought of as a single word in the genetic codej produces a single en- zyme. Hence the matter of protein Cor enzymej synthesis is particularly important. Several persons have demonstrated that proteins are synthesized in ultramicroscopic cellular granules called ribosomes. In the course of his work at the Biological Labora- tories, Watson has noted further that the information stored in DNA is transported to these ribosomes by way of another sub- stance: RNA Cribose nucleic acid-a close relative of DNAJ. Apparently, ribosomes are capable of turning out any kind of protein and may be thought of as assembly plants where proteins are put together from their component amino acids. The type of protein produced in any instance is deter- mined by the kind of RNA reaching the ribosome, and this in turn depends on the particular encoded direction in the DNA of the cell. In a way Watson's presence at Harvard is indicative of a major change that has come over the Department of Biology, a change away from the older, macrocosmic, descrip- tive biology and toward the molecular bio- chemical biology that has aroused so much 48 interest these days. Certainly, the award of the 1962 Nobel prize to Watson and his associates for their work on DNA stresses the importance of this new area of biological research. Pk Pk Each year Harvard attracts a large number of visiting lecturers. Some remain for an entire year to give courses, others are one- night wonders who deliver their speeches, are photographed by the Crimson, and dis- appear. But however long or short their stay, these men contribute fresh perspectives to the Harvard community. Willy Brandt, Governing Mayor of Berlin, delivered the 1962 Gustav Pollak lectures in October. Coexistence was the only alterna- tive to universal suicidej' he said, but the Communists reject any form of cooperation based on mutual tolerance and respect. Brandt emphasized the need to talk and negotiate with Communist nations, but warned his audience that any concessions not based on a reasonable give-and-take are but surrender on the installment plan. Calling for a universal f'club of all nations anxious to advance world trade and raise world living standards, Brandt spe- cifically urged the admission of England to the European Economic Community. It would be disastrous, he said, if England did not join the community, for France and West Germany alone are not Europe. Mme. Agda Rossel, Swedish ambassador to the United Nations, inaugurated a new lecture series, named in honor of Dag Ham- marskjold, later in the year. Although admitting the importance of the U.Nfs work in seeking peaceful solutions to international disputes, Mme. Rossel emphasized the work that the organization is doing to raise living standards and to secure basic freedoms for people around the World. The lecture series was established by Radcliffe College and the Harvard-Radcliffe World Federalists to pro- mote an examination of the problems of world order. The Charles Eliot Norton lectures on poetry were delivered this year by Leo Schrade, professor of music at the University of Basel. Schrade discussed music as drama, emphasizing its historic role as an integral part of Greek tragedy. As usual, the Law School Forum's lecture program brought several important speakers to Harvard. Early in the year, the Rev. Martin Luther King came to Cambridge to urge not only a desegregated society, but an integrated society-neither black supremacy nor whitej, to be brought about by increased government action and non-violent protests by Negroes against discrimination. King MIT economist Paul Samuel- son. declared that 'fwe have come a long, long way in the fight for integration, but we have a long, long way to go. If democracy is to live, segregation must dief' Immediately after intersession, Governor Ross Barnett of Mississippi addressed the Law School Forum, but skirted the topic of integration, concentrating instead on the natural attractions of his native state, recent signs of economic progress there, and the importance of states, rights. The Federal Government, he said, His constantly making a whipping boy of the states and is over- stepping its constitutional powers. Barnett maintained that it is a fraud upon the American people to pretend that human rights can long endure without constitutional restrictions on the government's power, and warned against falling into the trap of world-wide Communism. During the ques- tion period which followed his talk, however, Barnett was unable to name any of the human rights which he wished the states to protect. Early in March, the Forum presented Louis Nizer and Edward I. McCormack, Jr., who clashed over whether a lawyer has any obligation to defend a person whose political views he finds despicable or who he feels 49 is guilty of the crime with which he is charged. Nizer stated that I cannot argue with passion or sincerity for a man if I de- spise him-if he is a Nazi or traitor, or subversive. McCormack and A. James Casner, associate dean of the Law School, who moderated the program, both challenged Nizeris view. McCormack argued that, if all lawyers accepted Nizer's view, unpopular individuals might never obtain adequate legal representation. In October, Robert Frost briefly visited the University, delivering a guest lecture for Humanities 6, which was studying his poems at the time. Other visitors during the year included Zbigniew Brzezinski, director of the Columbia Institute of Communist Affairs, who came to Cambridge early in the Cuban crisis to state that once Castro is castrated militarily, his real challenge to the hemi- sphere would be neutralized. If I were in a position to decide, I would initiate an in- tensive air strike on the missile sites, which are still comparatively fewf' Max F.

Without visiting professors, Harvard might tend to stagnate intellectually. But Harvard must also continue to move forward in con- struction of new facilities and with frequent reappraisals of existing policies. Half-buried in a mound of earth behind the biology labs lies the newest and most spectacular addition to the University's scientific facilities, the Cambridge Electron Accelerator. The S12 million CEA, which has just completed its first full year in oper- ation, is the largest and most powerful by five times in the world, and can accelerate electrons to an energy of six million electron volts and to a speed 99.9999996 per cent that of light. The Accelerator symbolizes the recent effects brought on the curriculum and nature of modern universities by widening inter- national awareness, advancing knowledge, and increasingly sophisticated methods of research. The first experiment of the CEA will be an investigation of the internal struc- ture of the proton, it may take as long as four years to complete, and will require 551.5 million of equipment. During the past year, the University dedi- cated a second research facility-the Com- puting Center. The Center evolved from Harvard's pioneering computation labora- tory, where the first large-scale digital cal- culating machine CMark IJ was designed some 20 years ago by Howard H. Aiken, professor emeritus of applied mathematics, in collaboration with IBM engineers. The new Center, equipped with an IBM 7090, will provide a University-wide re- search service for all departments, at present, over 20 courses and one freshman seminar use computers. Anthony G. Oettinger, direc- tor of the Center, has suggested that the 7090 could be profitably used to assign freshmen to the Houses, a job that now takes up a large amount of the Masters' time. The Computing Center, of course, is only one of several centers which have been established here over the past years and which encompass work in almost every area of study and research at the University. The Center for International Affairs, the Center for Cognitive Studies, the Russian Research Center, the Center for the Study of World Religions, the Joint Center for Urban Affairs, the Center for Research in Personality, and others are all well-established and contin- uously conducting important research. In addition, the University has recently announced plans for three major new ones: a S750,000 Space Center to assist the federal government in its race to the moon, a 32.5 Robert Lowell, visiting professor of English, in his room in Quincy House. Visiting Professor Mark van Doren, whose course Humanities 119 was the fourth largest in the University. The Carpenter Center for the Visual Arts, as it appeared in December. million Primate Research Center for use by universities and hospitals throughout New England, and a center at the Graduate School of Education to study the progress of education in underdeveloped areas. But not all of the University's achieve- ments during this academic year have in- volved science, research, and graduate and professional education. The University, President Pusey reported in January, has been able to maintain a balance among the various fields of learning, private support has helped to offset federal aid, which has been directed almost solely to the special missions of health, defense, and space. In terms of physical facilities, Harvardis efforts to foster the humanities and social sciences have been impressive. On a small scale, it has granted more library space for fields such as music, Oriental languages and literatures, German and French, the fine arts, the Law School, and the Divinity School. Its most dramatic encouragement of non-scientific fields over the past year, 52 however, was the opening of the Carpenter Center for the Visual Arts in February. The Arts Center, the first building in the United States designed by Le Corbusier, unites many of the integral parts of the French architectis design-pillar founda- tions, multicolored glass walls, sun breaks and roof terraces. The five-level structure houses, in open flexible space, a number of workshops where undergraduates and ad- vanced students work in a variety of media and structural materials and where they ex- periment with various aspects of line, form, colors, texture, light, and communication. Le Corbusier's building became immedi- ately controversial not only to those who disliked its raw design, but more important, to those who saw it as an educational tool. Soon after the opening, Peter Shultz, the Centerls director, said that undergraduate artists might as well forget about plans to do individual work there. Shultz announced that he was not going to let the Center degenerate into a Nhobby lobby, where any- one can come and work on his leathercraft, or poetry, or Indian beadwork? No un- supervised undergraduates, Shultz said, will be allowed to use the Center,s facilities for painting or other creative work. On the other hand, many people felt that the Center ought not to be entirely profes- sional, as the Loeb had been during its first years, but ought to provide to the liberal arts student a part of his general education which is unavailable elsewhere. The design workshops, they argued, should not be limited to training future architects but should treat the various arts in general. Harvard's concern for non-scientific dis- ciplines also revealed itself in her support for two new centers-the Center for Italian Renaissance Culture in Florence and the Center for Hellenic Studies in Washington, D.C. President Pusey began a fund drive to raise S2 million endowment for I Tatti, the villa of the late Bernard Berenson, and planned a May visit there when the city of Florence honored Harvard for its contribu- tions to Florentine culture. In addition to keeping a reasonable bal- ance among the several fields of learning, the University has sought private funds over the past year for a simple but increasingly im- portant reason: where the federal govern- ment grants money, it expects to control the use to which its money is put. As early as June, President Pusey warned that at some future time the government might make demands on Harvard inconsistent with her history as a truly independent, autonomous, open society devoted to intellectual search for its own sake. In September the Congress made a sur- prise move that seemed to ease some of the fears expressed by Pusey and Law School dean Erwin N. Griswold. The Senate voted September 27 to repeal the disclaimer aili- davit-but not the loyalty oath-required under the National Defense Education Act loan program. Harvard had long objected to the affidavit, and in protest withdrew from the NDEA program in November, 1959. In particular, the University objected to sec- tion 1001 Cfj of the Act, which requires loan applicants to disclaim membership in, belief in, or support of subversive organizations. The House also struck the disclaimer aiiidavit from the NDEA Cas well as from the National Science Foundation Actj, and the bill was subsequently signed by President Kennedy, who as Senator had twice-at President Pusey's urgings-tried to get the affidavit repealed. Harvard rejoined the pro- gram November 7. But, in March, one statement Pusey had made in his .Tune Commencement address seemed prophetic: in particularj' he had said, ucertain evidences of an increasing desire to say how things are to be done in laboratories, and who may not appear in them, cannot fail to look like interference from the point of view of an independent university. This March the University an- nounced that the Atomic Energy Com- mission had tried to impose strict controls on the Cambridge Electron Accelerator, to which it contributes S5 million a year in operating expenses. The Hnal contract, signed late in March, required the University to furnish the AEC background information on all aliens doing research work at the accelerator, and re- quired Harvard to notify the Commission whenever scientists from Soviet bloc nations plan visits to the CEA. The AEC did drop some of its original demands which the Faculty saw as a serious abridgernent of academic freedom. But President Pusey stressed that there would continue to be conflicts between Harvard and the federal govermnent, and that the Uni- versity must remain eternally vigilant. Throughout the year, there was a notice- able increase in the amount of thought and time devoted to educational policy, under the leadership of the Faculty's new dean, Franklin L. Ford. Shortly after the begin- ning of the new term, Dean Ford announced the appointment of a ten-member Faculty committee to review the General Education program, the Hrst overall reappraisal of the program since it was founded 15 years ago. The committee will consider two problems in the present General Education program. First, the increased specialization of the courses involves the student in intensive work in a single discipline, rather than at- tempting to spread his study over several different fields. Secondly, recent educational experiments such as sophomore standing and freshmen seminars, which hasten a stu- dent's choice of field, conflict with general education, which aims at the opposite effect. The freshman seminar program itself came under the scrutiny of a committee headed by John J. Conway, Master of Leverett House. In a report, which the Faculty unanimously approved, the committee recommended that the program be continued, and that the Doty committee on general education study the relation between the two programs. Early in December, the Faculty ruled that all seniors with the required number of honors grades would be automatically eligible for cum laude in general studies, even if they dropped their theses after going for an honors degree in their major. At the same time, the Faculty rejected a motion of the Committee on Educational Policy allow- ing a studentls department to recommend that he be denied a CLGS degree. The Departments of History and Govern- ment both objected strongly to the new ruling, fearing that it would encourage honors candidates to drop their theses for no good reason. The decision was also criticized on the ground that by opening the general studies degree to honors dropouts, its value was cheapened for those students who de- cided at the beginning of their senior year that they did not wish to commit themselves to one department to the extent of writing a thesis. No attempt was made to reverse the ruling in subsequent Faculty meetings, however, although departments which objected to the new policy threatened to give failing grades in tutorial to honors seniors who failed to complete their theses. Several changes were made during the year in the tutorial programs of various fields. The Biology Department became the second science CChemist1y was the firstj in the last two years to inaugurate an undergraduate tutorial program. About 35 students applied for the optional, noncredit program in biology. Social Studies concentrators were required this year to take tutorial for credit as a full course throughout their sophomore year. Both the History and History and Literature Departments later became interested in giving sophomore tutorial as a credit half- course running throughout the year, but the Government and Economics Departments rejected similar proposals. 53 Francis Keppel ,38, former dean of the School of Education, who was appointed US Commissioner of Education this winter. ArIlEVV DEAN OFTHE FACULTY When McGeorge Bundy resigned as Dean of the Faculty of Arts and Sciences, he va- cated a position second in prominence only to the Presidency of the University. Eight- een months later the vacancy was nlled, with the appointment of Franklin L. Ford to Bundyls old position. Since he was installed last fall, Ford has been the object of wide- spread interest and controversy. For his is a position of widespread influence. As Faculty spokesman, for example, the Dean has a vital role in the line of communi- cations between Faculty and Administration. And because the Dean controls the Faculty's budget, he plays a major part in the financial organization of the University. Thus the Dean is in many ways a sort of prime min- ister to the President, Professor Ford serves as Dr. Pusey's right-hand man for internal affairs. From 9 to 5 a stream of visitors besieges the Dean's oiiice: distinguished chemists, young linguists eager to enlarge their depart- ment budgets, history professors, psycholo- gists, and the representatives of all the differ- ent interests of the University. To be the arbitrator of all these conflicting demands requires a man of skill and tenacity. The Dean must also have a clear idea of Har- vardis goals as a University. Dean Ford's idea of institutional health is closely reasoned and obviously much on his mind. The University, he feels, must above all have balance: the pie must be cut 54 in such a way that Harvard will be able to encourage excellence in any field, to support new ideas and young people, and to try novel combinations of these ideas and people. With S12 million of government money pouring into the sciences each year, this bal- ance is difficult to achieve, but Dean Ford gives the impression that he is equal to the task. But a balance between the sciences and the humanities is not the only matter that concerns him. Balance in the student body is a problem that must concern any college administrator. The Dean sees the under- graduate body as being, most of the time, a group of individuals without a great many common opinions. On the other hand, there sometimes emerges a firm concensus, and when this happens, he says, University Hall is bound to consider it a startling and im- portant event . The Faculty is consistently vocal, but student opinion has a small voice. ln short, looking after the Faculty of Arts and Sciences is no mean feat. And there is little doubt that the task keeps Ford busy. Somewhere between the constant demands of the Faculty, the government, and Presi- dent Pusey, Ford must work out a balance in his own life between teaching and admin- istration. No bureaucrat at heart, Professor Ford is determined to squeeze some time for lectures and scholarship into his chaotic schedule. , , .1 59311, in ADMINISTRATION The President of Harvard University is vulnerable to criti- cism on all sides. He is at once the head of the most impres- sive array of academicians in America and the director of a S40 million a year business. As the primary policy maker for both educational and financial questions, he makes far- reaching decisions which cannot but polarize the Harvard community. NATHAN MARSH PUsEY '28, President of Har- vard University, was strongly attacked by the Harvard Crimson for his failure to appoint a new Dean of the Faculty of Arts and Sciences to replace McGeorge Bundy. His eventual selection of Franklin Ford was widely hailed. President Pusey sees Harvard's position as one of leader- ship in a universal academic community. Soon after assum- ing his position in 1953, he set about making expansion plans to help the University fulfill its obligations. The Pro- gram for Harvard College, which met its goal of 3582.5 million early in 1960, has gone far in financing the strength- ening of liberal education at Harvard. Faculty salaries have been raised dramatically and some twenty new academic chairs have been endowed. New physical facilities such as the Loeb Drama Center, the Center for the Visual Arts and the Leverett Towers have sprung up all over the campus. Programs in International Legal Studies, Middle Eastern Studies and East Asian Studies have been established and provided with superb facilities. In the year that the Program succeeded, a S58 million Program for Harvard Medicine was begun. L. GARD WIGGINS, Administrative Vice President, is the chief business oiiicer of the University. He is responsible for the construction and maintenance of University buildings, the massive housing and restau- rant service for both undergraduates and graduate students, and the keeping of financial records and accounts. Vice President Wiggins has long experience in the administration of financial matters. He holds a degree in Business Administration from Columbia, was in pri- vate industry for many years and was Comptroller of Harvard from 1954-60. He also serves on the board of directors of the Harvard University Press and is Treasurer of the Harvard Coop. The piles of papers covering the capacious desk of ROBERT WATSON, Dean of Students, testify to the fact that his office is the nerve center of the administration of Harvard undergrad- uates. Dean Watson' prefers to call it the slop-chuten of the College. Working under and with Dean Monro, Dean Watson super- vises all student extra-curricular activities, consults the Masters and Senior Tutors on House problems and sits on several Faculty committees. He also rescues students in difticulty with outside authorities and claims to know seventy-tive members of the Cambridge police force. While his college activities would be enough to keep a lesser man occupied, Dean Watson tinds time to be associated with a score of educational and service groups ranging from the Beaver Country Day School to the Boston Nursery for Blind Babies. Patient and flexible, JOHN U. MONRO, is a thoughtful administrator whose tact and tol- erance ease the strenuous task of educational innovation at Harvard. Dean of Harvard College since 1958, Monro's idea of his role is in the typical Harvard tradition. While he favors vigorous action by the Administra- tion to provide a maximum of opportunity, he feels a liberal education should emphasize freedom of choice for students, professors, and academic departments to develop au- tonomously. Before becoming Dean, Monro was Di- rector of the Financial Aid Oitice, and be- came one of the nation's most vocal advo- cates for financial aid to needy students. During his tenure as Financial Aid Director, the Harvard loan program expanded from 510,000 to 5221000 a year, and he was the founder and first chairman of the College Scholarship Service. EDWARD T. WILCOX, Harvard's Director of Advanced Stand-ing, is in charge of the advanced placement and advanced standing program and is officially concerned with the problems and per- formance of the 350 advanced standing students currently at Harvard. He especially enjoys working with these particular students and is known for his robust sense of humor and sympathetic attitude. A graduate of Brown, Mr. Wilcox was an associate Director of the Bureau of Study Council and an Assistant Dean of Freshmen before assuming his present position. He talks about the Advanced Standing Program with optimism and obvious pride, but also with a realization of the Program's overall sig- nificance and the problems it has created. 58 FRED LEE GLIMP, Dean of Admissions and Finan- cial Aid, has what may be the most heartbreaking job in the University. The letters of acceptance and rejection which he sends to applicants for admission to the College represent a fateful point in their lives, and Dean Glimp has a strong sense of his unique responsibility. Dean Glimp claims that he got into educational administration 'lby mistaken, but the job has agreed with him. He is a magna cum laude graduate of Harvard and a member of Phi Beta Kappa. After two years as a Fullbright Scholar at Queens Col- lege, Cambridge, he returned to Harvard to write his doctorate in Economics. In search of a part- time job, he accepted a position in the Admissions office and has been there ever since. The Program was initiated by the Harvard Fac- ulty in 1954 in order to encourage secondary schools to introduce college level courses into their curriculum. The original aim of the Program was both to raise the level of secondary school educa- tion and to provide the possibility of acceleration and greater stimulation for highly motivated stu- dents. Mr. Wilcox believes that both aims have been accomplished. The Program has had con- siderable impact on American education. There are over 300 colleges which have some form of an advanced standing program. At Harvard in 1961, approximately 450 students in the entering class received advanced placement in one or more col- lege courses. Of these, 134 were offered sopho- more standing and 102 accepted. Mr. Wilcox is quick to point out the steady increase in the num- ber of candidates for the Advanced Standing Pro- gram. He believes that introductory college level courses are becoming an accepted feature of many secondary school curriculums. In addition to his work with students, Mr. Wil- cox frequently deals directly with the secondary schools and also with the different Harvard depart- ments. Such courses as Chem ll and the special honors concentration being prepared by the Divi- sion of Engineering and Applied Physics are espe- cially designed to serve the needs of better pre- pared students. Mr. Wilcox is also called in by rnany other colleges to help them initiate and ad- minister similar programs. Mr. Wilcox emphasizes the highly optional na- ture of the Program. The Advanced Standing stu- dent may withdraw at any timeg he alone must decide whether a fourth year at Harvard will be more valuable than some alternative use of the year. Director Wilcox concludes: We know, at this point at least, that students in Advanced Standing can leave us after three years with rec- ords that do them credit, or after four years with a flexibility in their undergraduate work not now part of our undergraduate programs. ARTHUR D. TROTTENBERG is a man with two different caps on his head. He is both Assistant Dean of the Faculty of Arts and Sciences and Administrative Vice President of Radcliffe College. In fact, one of his chief roles is to serve as a liaison between the two administrations. E Mr. Trottenberg co-ordinates the activities of the different business ofhces of the College and is respon- sible for long range planning and development of Harvard's physical facilities. At Radcliffe, he is in charge of long range planning and development and is the chief business officer. He also serves on many Faculty committees. In Dean Trottenberg, one finds an administrator and executive Who is yet highly literary and artistic in his tastes. He is the author of Education, Bricks and Mortar, a discussion of Harvard's buildings and their relation to education. He is a member of the Faculty Committee on the Practice of the Visual Arts and is also a professional photographer who has had his pictures published in several photographic maga- zines. His new book, Atget et Proust: A Vision of Paris, is soon to be published. It includes photographs of Paris by Atget, the famous photographer, and quotes from Proust's Remembrances of Things Past. 'tBoth these men lived in Paris at the turn of the century , Mr. Trottenberg explained, and both had great visual sensitivity to Paris. Although the two did not know each other, they both had a common love for the Parisian scene. The office of the Freshman Dean, erected as a buffer between the new and lonely freshman and the giant coporative machine which is Harvard, is a small em- pire, Its overlord, F. SKIDDY VON STADE, JR., Dean of Freshmen, is like a super housemaster, with 1250 students, the dormitories and the Harvard Union all under his personal administration. The concern of the Freshman Dean is prevention rather than curen of the ills which accompany the transition from secondary school to college, and there can be little doubt that Dean Von Stade attacks these problems with a genuinely sympathetic and friendly approach. Few House Masters are able to achieve as much familiarity with their students in three years as does Dean Von Stade in one. 5 2 E ..,l,.-V -a:- rf N - 1.3 'eg ' ,f afgfis if A . at I :Xa History is to a society what memory is to an indi- vidual, asserts BERNARD BAILYN, Professor of His- tory. Since he began teaching at Harvard in 1949, Bailyn has concentrated on American colonial and revolutionary history. At the present time he is work- ing on a volume of eighteenth century American po- litical thought and practice to serve as political back- ground for the period. Bailyn is also editor of the John Harvard Library, a publication which seeks to put into accessible and presentable form documents of American history and culture which might other- wise be dillicult to obtain. Bailyn and his wife were the Hrst to use the punch card technique of research in preparing the volume, Massaclzusetts Shipping 1697-1714. Bailyn now teaches History 160, American Colo- nial Historyfl where he sometimes calls attention to historical landmarks by pointing from the lecture hall window at the Harvard campus. 60 The Bostonese of Harvard Square and long tenure at the University have no more than dulled Professor HERSCHEL BAKER's Southern accent. They have in no way affected his sar- donic sense of humor. With a B.A. and a de- gree in music from Southern Methodist Univer- sity, Professor Baker came North for an M.A. and a Ph.D. from Harvard, and he has stayed on to introduce students to the poets and dram- atists of the English Renaissance and Reforma- tion. Teaching these English majors, almost all of whom, he says are aspiring novelists, does not interfere with his scholarly work, which has resulted in a series of books. Among these are two books on the intellectual history of the English Renaissance, The Dignity of Man and The Wars of Truth, and an anthology on the same subject. Earlier Professor Baker wrote a book on the English actor Kimbel, and he has recently Hnished an important work on the essayist Hazlitt, whom he feels has been un- justly neglected by scholars. Baker feels the ability of the students who an interest in Res- toration Comedy or Donne leads into his classes is apparently improvingg in fact, the Professor finds that one no longer has to explain who Milton was. After two years at Harvard, JAMES ACKERMAN, Professor of Fine Arts, took over the lecture stand for the spring term of Fine Arts 13, the post filled in alternate years by the popular Seymour Slive. He will add Fine Arts 13, where I take 400 years and let my colleagues handle 8000,,' to his two courses on Renaissance Architecture and Italian Painting of the 15th Century. Born in San Francisco in 1919, Professor Ackerman came to Yale for his undergraduate degree, and studied at New York University for his doctorate. He then returned to the Bay Area to teach at the University of California, where the faculty is as good as Harvard's, but they are not pushed as hard. The Harvard student is very demanding. Professor Ackerman's held is architectural history of the Italian Renais- sance, with particular reference to Michelangelo as an architect. He has published a recent article in Atlantic Monthly on abstract art- very far from my field. Harvard has trouble with its suspicion of art, comments Professor Ackerman. Fear of the artist as bohemian is an academic disease more prevalent here than at Berkeley. It's good to have suspicious people around -at Berkeley I learned more from painters than from my colleagues. Professor CHARLES RICHARDS CHERrNGToN's interests in the field of government range from problems of metropolitan government, to federalism in the American system, and government regulation of industry. C'The trend is towards more government regulation, although oligopoly may have to be acceptedftj He sees national- ization of the railroads as probably the only answer to their problems. I owe everything I've got to Harvard, Professor Cherington insists. He owns a 2200 acre farm in Vermont, where he raises hay, hogs, and the beginnings of cattle? A graduate of Exeter, he came to Harvard to major in government, and graduated in l935g he attended Harvard Law School- an interesting academic experience -and after a year practicing law with a firm in Boston, returned to Harvard in 1939 to teach Government 1 and to tutor live sophomores. He received his permanent appointment in 1948 and was named a full professor in 1953. His doctorate dissertation on the regulation of railroad abandon- ments t it's not as esoteric as it may sound-there are thousands of miles of abandoned track in this country J was later published in book form. He is currently Writing another book, to be pub- lished next fall, tentatively entitled Elements of Political Science. 'iIt's for third rate colleges, teachers' colleges, junior colleges-not too deep. He sees his teaching responsibilities as the most important aspect of his work at Harvard- after all, the undergraduates do form the core of the University -and research as secondary. If specialists don't learn to speak to each other in a complex society such as ours, things will be in a sorry mess. PAUL H. BUCK, Pforzheimer University Professor and Director of the Harvard University Library, has con- cerned himself over the past several years with the prac- tical aspects of this problem. Under his leadership a committee of professors presented General Education in fl Free Society, the basic formula for Harvard's system of General Education. Recognizing an increasing pres- sure toward specialization even within the General Edu- cation program, Professor Buck has this year become a member of a committee to review the values and realities of the program at Harvard today. A report of possible far-reaching effect on University policy, is expected by the end of this year. 5 Professor Buclcs varied activities demonstrate his con- cern about over-specialization. As Director of the Uni- versity Library, third largest in the United States, and the only great library in the world with no form of gov- ernment support, his responsibilities are many and varied. He is also chairman of the board of the Stanford-based Center for Advanced Study in the Behavioral Sciences. In addition to these activities, he is chairman at Harvard's Center for the Comparative Study of the History of Liberty in America, of which Oscar Handlin is the Di- rector, and heads the Ford Foundations Committee on the Role of Education in American History.

I, . .,.4 A story may have every other virtue in the world, but if it isn't interesting it isn't worth a damn. MONROE ENGEL, Lecturer in English, is quite cheerful when he says this-apparently the work students do for his advanced writing course is interesting enough. Their prime fault, Engel feels, is instead an unwilling- ness to re-write and to re-conceive their stories. Too many of them don't want writing to be hard work and for Engel, who agrees with Herbert Read that the prime requirement for a writer is ua strong con- stitution, this outlook is indefensible. Remembering the old Latin B course he took as an undergraduate at Harvard, Engel thinks that authors could also profit by going back to more translation for training in reading and writing. But he does not wish for any former days: He believes that although the public doesn't know it, there is an extraordinary amount of good writing done now by Harvard undergraduates. Engel sees no interference between his own writing and teaching, as long as the teaching remains part- time- What this country needs are more good part- time jobs. He feels that some prosperity has recently eeked down to writers, so colleges are now forced to offer something better to attract them to teach. Engel thinks of himself primarily as a writer and admits that once you are established in the middle class there is a terrible closing down of the Worldf' Still, living in Cambridge and teaching represent to him much less of a closing down than anything else. f'Teaching gives you feedback. The academic life allows him to meet anew people when they are most intellectually demanding and intellectually curious? After college and the army, Engel saw manuscripts from behind the publishing desk. When he first started his job as an editor, Malcolm Lowry's Under the Volcano, rejected by other publishers, came to him. Engel got excited about the book and after his lirm accepted it he was led to think that publishing would always be this way. The excitement passed and Engel turned to teaching, at Princeton and then Boston Uni- versity. In addition to teaching creative writing he has led literature courses at Harvard, his favorite subjects being Dickens and D. H. Lawrence. Engel LOUIS FIESER, Sheldon Emery Professor of Organic Chemistry, is one of the few pro- fessors who has been eminently successful in all three aspects of his field: research, teaching and writing. Professor Fieser has unfolded the intricacies of organic chemistry to capacity crowds of Harvard students for the past thirty years. His lectures are char- acterized by a relaxed, informal manner and a subtle sense of humor, which are in strong contrast to the intensity of the course. The keen competition in Chem 20 and its vast amounts of lecture and laboratory material make it one of the most diflicult courses in the undergraduate curriculum. It features Hve hour exams and a final each term. Professor Fieseris research is extensive. He invented napalm, the jellied explosive that found extensive use in World War II and Korea, synthesized vitamin K and corti- sone and has written hundreds of research papers on antimalarials, synthetic hormones, vitamins and antibiotics. He is currently seeking to End the relation of steroids to cancer. calls Lawrence the most influential writer in English in this century-more so than Joyce. He feels that Lawrence lives up to the standard Engel has set for himself and his students: a man on to the real game, not little games, playing for keeps the whole way. In his own, most recent novel Voyager Belsky, Engel sends his hero off to see once more whether the world has anything to say. It is the same search for the real game. 64 WILLIAM YANDELL ELLIOTT, Leroy B. Wil- liams Professor of History and Political Sci- ence, joined the Harvard faculty in 1925. Professor Elliott is best known among under- graduates as the head of Government lb, a speedy romp through the fields of political theory-Plato to Bertrand Russell. An El- liott lecture will never be equalled at Har- vard or elsewhere, Organization and pre- cision are not obvious, but it is immediately clear that the lecturer is a distinguished scholar who is at home on any possible topic. And, in fact, not many topics escape the Elliott approval or wrath during the course of a semester. Professor Elliott has acquired this general knowledge during his years at Harvard when he has taught every damned thing in the government department. His specialty, how- ever, is political theory, which he believes is the most distinguished feature of the Harvard Government Department. Professor Elliott's political views are now conservative, CBertrand Russell's fuzzy thinkinga' appalls himj although he has served under many Washington Administra- tions. With a long career of government service behind him, he believes that acad- emicians usually make poor administrators. They cannot conceal their dislike of the bureaucracy, and so often do not function efficiently. After a long and successful career of teaching and practicing government, Pro- fessor Elliott plans to retire soon from Har- vard to a position at American University, where he will continue to write. L As China and the Far East demand increas- ing attention from every American, the work of JOHN K. FAIRBANK, Higginson Professor of History, seems more and more important. Professor Fairbank fits his special studies in modern Chinese history into a comprehen- sive view of the vast heterogenous civiliza- tion of East Asia, which he introduces to future specialists and dilettantes alike in So- cia Sciences 111. His lectures are valued for their clarity, broad insights, and occasional iiashes of irony which destroy common mis- conceptions. Harvard is a center of Western efforts to understand and interpret the Far East, and Professor Fairbank is at the center of Har- vard's efforts. Besides Social Sciences 111, he teaches specialists' courses in modern Chinese history, serves as director of the East Asian Research Center, and serves tea and cucumber sandwiches to students and colleagues at his home every Thursday after- noon. With seven major studies published and an eighth in progress, Professor Fairbank has earned a brilliant professional reputa- tion. Last year he received the award of the American Council of Learned Societies for distinguished accomplishments in human- istic scholarship. The specter of the generation to come holds a partic- ular fear for mathematicians, within a very few years the seventh graders who are now learning set theory tthey cleaned up plane geometry the year beforej will burst into the mathematical fraternity, and it is nerv- ously expected by the mathematical establishment that they will all but eclipse their traditionally trained predecessors. Professor ANDREW I. GLEASON, the Chairman of the School Mathematics Study Council, is one of the moving powers behind the recent push in mathematics teaching to eliminate deadwood and outdated methods of instruction that slow students up in grasping essential concepts. While he does not expect to see the field taken over by the New Men, he has optimistic hopes for the quality of work to be expected from mathematicians who avoided the men- tal ossification produced by borrow and f'carry instruction. Professor Gleason has been so busy doing mathe- matics that he never took the time to pick up a Ph.D., his only degrees are a B.S. from Yale C423 and an honorary M.A. At the end of 1952 he suddenly achieved the distinction that accrues to the accom- plishment of a particular feat-complementing his recognition for exceptional mathematical competence -by solving a problem, in topological groups, of such abstruseness as to seem totally pointless to the layman. The problem had defied solution since its proposal by the mathematician Hilbert in 1900, for this successful attack Gleason received the Newcomb Cleveland Prize of the American Association for the Advancement of Science. Six months later he was appointed Associate Professor and in 1957 he became a full Professor. In addition to raising a family and busily working on what he calls the out-of-the-way problems in such diverse fields as topology, higher algebra, geom- etry, and combinatorial mathematics, Gleason is at- tacking the educational problem posed by the mathe- matically competent undergraduate who, not a math major, wants to take mathematics courses without applying the professional zeal expected of mathemati- cians. The answer seems to be more middle-group coursesg at any rate, with the expected flood of mathe- matically well-trained students expected shortly as a result of the SMSG, the problem is assuming more importance with each year. DONALD H. FLEMING came to Harvard in 1959 and was almost immediately faced with a challenging assignment: to replace Arthur Schlesinger, Ir. as the lecturer in his controversial course, American Intellectual History . Professor Fleming has clearly met the testg both the high scholarly standards and the popularity of the course have been maintained. His lectures are singled out for their wittiness and meticulous analysis of American thought and thinkers. The fact is, however, that American intel- lectual history is only an adopted field for Professor Fleming. He is, by trade, a his- torian of science. Originally attracted to the field as a child, he has devoted a major part of his endeavors to the study of scientific ideas and their impact on the world. In History 167, History of Science in Amer- isa , he lectures on the major achievements of American men of science, the condition- ing of their work by American circumstances and the impact of science upon society. A graduate of Johns Hopkins, Professor Fleming received his Ph.D. at Harvard in 1947. He was Chairman of the History De- partment at Brown prior to returning to Harvard. He received the Beveridge Prize of the American Historical Association for his volume, John William Draper and the Religion of Science. He is currently working on a three volume study of the history of science in America which will be the defini- tive work in its field. I RICHARD T. GILL, assistant professor of Economics and the head of Economics 1, has been an active College administrator ever since graduating from Harvard in 1949. After studying a year abroad on a Henry fellowship, he began work as assistant dean of the College, under Wilbur J. Bender. Harvard had not yet instituted the Allston Burr Senior Tutorships in the Houses, and so the administrative chores for the entire College were handled in University Hall. Mr. Gill and the other two assistant deans each looked after slightly more than 1000 students. As Senior Tutor of Leverett, a position which he has held since 1955, he spends only slightly less time handling the concerns of 440. But the next Master of Leverett House is not known best for sheparding individual students through the maze of requirements and restrictions which impedes their progress toward a degree. Rather, his greatest contribution to the College has been to supply the initia- tive for a fundamental revision in Harvard's tutorial programs. Before the present system was instituted, the College treated its students in two rather radically different ways, depending on whether it classed them as Honors or non-Honors concentrators. Though practices varied widely from department to department, the general rule was that only Honors concentrators could get tutorial and write a thesis. 67 Primarily because he felt that the academic calibre of the average Harvard student had risen high enough to lessen the need for an artificially imposed Honors-non-Honors distinction, Mr. Gill suggested that the choice of whether or not to write a thesis should be left to the students themselves. After discussing the idea with several mem- bers of the Committee on Educational Policy, he set about the intri- cate task of writing down the exact provisions that would most satis- factorily embody the idea, and of convincing the other members of the Faculty that the idea was a good one. Though the f'Gill Plan was almost killed by floor-debate at a mid-winter Faculty meeting, early in the spring of 1961 it was approved almost unanimously. Mr. Gill will take over Leverett House in the beginning of the summer. In part, he hopes to administer the House on the same principle with which he worked during the past two or three years- that Harvard students today are intelligent and ought to make their own decisions. In his words, The House should give a feeling of support, rather than impose a pattern, on ventures taken up by the undergraduates. He considers the most important benefit the House system can offer a student to be contact with other undergraduates, and he sees dining hall conversation, perhaps even more than the residential tutorial system, as the single most fundamental aspect of a House. There are thirty-two different ways to measure a human face, according to W. W. HOWELLS, Professor of Anthropology, and all of them are important. Professor Howells is presently feed- ing facial and other measurements of thousands of subjects into electronic computors in an am- bitious attempt to determine the basic differ- ences between human types. Computers, which he admits 'fdazzle him a little, are indispensable tools for revealing correlations among the hun- dreds of variables under consideration. This research should lead not only to a detailed clas- sification of human types, but also to an under- standing of the genetic and environmental causes of differentiation within the species, and thus to fresh insights into the evolutionary process. Structure and evolutionary change receive equal treatment in Professor Howells' introduc- tory anthropology courses. Despite their eso- teric flavor, his ability and warmth have helped to keep physical anthropology and prehistory popular among non-specialists from both of the two cultures. Besides his work on body types, Professor Howells is well known in his profession for studies of prehistoric populations and the origins of races. His leadership was recognized as early as 1951 by election as President of the Ameri- can Anthropological Association. Scene: the Adams House Dining Hall. Lunch has been eaten, trays collected, the coffee spirited away. A portrait of a severe Adams looks down on the few people-at least eight crowded around a small table. The reason is STEPHEN GRAUBARD, Lecturer on History, editor of Daedalzzs, Resident Tutor at Adams House, one man vindication of the House system. Dr. Graubard has been at Harvard since 1950. He has been holding his own in Adams House since 1952, prodding, challenging and-quite frankly-inspiring a decade of students. His two courses, Social Sciences 6, Freedom and Au- thority in the Modern World and History 143, History of English Thought from Burke to I. S. Mill are one indication of the breadth of his interests. Another is his editorship of Daedalus for the past three years. Concerning Daedalzts, Dr. Graubard is partic- ularly proud of the quarterly's habit of not merely reportly a topic, but often-as in the recent issue on arms control-of actually creating a discipline. Asked to define what Daedalus was about, Dr. Graubard said that it was dedicated to presenting serious scholastic findings to both experts and lay- men. Serious was emphasized-and to any of the many members of the many, many informal tableside seminars this was a familiar point. More than one discovered that what he had thought was the old conservative line was instead a plea to think Iirst and talk later, a gentle and sometimes not so gentle reminder that serious topics deserve and demand careful preparation as well as bril- liance. GOTTFRIED HABERLER, first Galen L. Stone Professor of International Trade, is optimistic about the future of the American economy. The three post-war recessions which the country has suffered, he says, have been much milder than those which followed the First World Warg we're now in a gradual upswing that should continue for some time. Dr. Haberler, who has studied economic and Iinancial rela- tions between nations for more than a quarter century, is an authority on business cycles and international trade. He currently teaches Economics 243, 'international Trade. Born in Vienna, Professor Haberler did his undergraduate and graduate work at the University of Vienna. He began his studies of trade between nations in 1928 when he be- came economist for the Vienna Chamber of Commerce and Professor of Economics at the University of Vienna. He moved to the United States to join the Harvard faculty in 1936. Many accomplishments highlight the expert economist's career: he has been President both of the International Eco- nomics Association and the National Bureau of Economic Researchg he served the League of Nations as financial expert from 1936-38g in 1943 he became associated with the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System. Professor Haberler is also the author of an extensive list of economic treatises. A long-time advocate of free trade, he wrote The Theory of International Trade in 1935 and A Survey of International Trade Theory in 1955. While working for the League of Nations, he wrote Prosperity and Depression, a study of business cycles which has been trans- lated into eight languages. 69 One finds it hard to believe that STANLEY HOFFMANN is only thirty-four years old. The Associate Professor of Government has built a reputa- tion seemingly incommensurate with a career so brief. As author, teacher, and commentator on fields ranging from international rela- tions to French culture and history to comparative literature, his voice commands the most profound respect on and off the Harvard campus. Even a thirty-six book reading list and a term paper could not keep Social Sciences 112, his multi-dimensional study, War, from being one of the fall term's most popular upper level courses. Professor Hoffmanls education was originally pointed toward the practice or teaching of law in France, where he had lived since leaving his native Austria as an infant. But he and the milieu at the Faculte du Droit at Paris appeared increasingly incompatible, and in 1951 he came to Harvard as a graduate student in government. That year the government department Was graced with a particularly brilliant gen- eration of Ph.D. candidates, Hoffman amusedly recalls nightly Hark- ness Common seances with friends Nicholas Wahl, Paul Sigmund, Zbigniew Brzezinski, Herbert Spiro and Ned Holborn over ZB spe- cialsj' a Brzezinski-formulated variant of the cheeseburger. In 1954 after an uninspiring stint in the French army, he accepted an invita- tion to remount Harvard's academic ladder and has been climbing ever since. Students particularly appreciate the obvious care that goes into the planning of his meticulously organized courses. Recently, he has also helped to create an experimental interdisciplinary field of concentra- tion in Social Studies and lent his support to a new student publica- tion, the Harvard Review. Among undergraduates, Hoffman is prob- ably most widely known for his frequent appearances in auditoriums, dining hall gatherings, and on WHRB discussing international prob- lems, usually in conflict with H. Stuart Hughes or some other hero of the local disarmers. Hoffman's View of the international problems which increasingly dominate his attention is founded in an insistent conservatism that emphasizes the restraints on national and international action inherent in the international system. His most frequent criticism of American foreign policy is its failure to comprehend the significance of such limitations on its capabilities. OSCAR HANDLIN, Winthrop Professor of History, has become one of Harvard's better-known faculty mem- bers in his more than twenty years of teaching and research at the University. His work in the social and economic history of the United States has brought him national recognition, highlighted by the 1952 Pulitzer Prize for History for his book, The Uprooted. Serving now as Director of the Center for the Study of the History of Liberty in America, he acts as editor and coordinator of the writings of distinguished his- torians throughout the country. As Director of the Center, Professor Handlin is involved in a major project-making a definitive study in the history of liberty. Thus far, only one hook, The Dfl776lZ.S'I'0l1.S' of Liberty, written by Professor Handlin and his wife, Mary F. Handlin, has been published. Eventually it is expected that some fifty books will be published. These studies are being pre- pared by several different historians, and cover topics ranging from the formation of the Constitution of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts to the development of anti-subversive legislation in the 1920's. In addition to his activities as coordinator of the project, Professor Handlin is currently involved with the writing of spe- cific historical monographs and doing the early re- search on the concluding work in the projected series on the history of liberty. This year saw the continuation of the system of alternating the teaching of American social and eco- nomic history, a pattern which has existed for the past twelve years. Professor Handlin lectured in a student- filled Emerson D on American social history in His- tory 163. The future of this popular course is some- what in doubt, since he feels that after twelve years it may be time for him to change. Professor V. O. KEY has devoted the major part of his life to the study of American politics, espe- cially the politics of the South. A native of Texas, Professor Key spent his undergraduate days at the University of Texas. In addition to teaching two graduate seminars, Professor Key is the lecturer in Government 135, Party Government in the United States. His often cited books include Public Opinion and ,, . V . 4 The Celts have profoundly influenced the develop- ment of the English language and Europe's religion and culture. Their significance to Western civiliza- tion assures VERNAM E. N. HULL, Professor of Celtic Languages, Emeritus, of the continuing suc- cess of the Celtic Department, from which he re- tired last summer as chairman and only member. His place is being filled this year by D. A. Bincy of the Dublin School for Advanced Studies. Professor Hull has published various books, in- cluding Hessens Irische Lexicon , and plans to use part of his time now to complete a book treat- ing a seventh century law tract on the legal status of bees. He is also writing an outline of Middle Irish for beginners, thus eliminating an existing gap. Originally planning to work in English, Profes- sor Hull was advised to take an auxiliary course in Celtic, but became interested only when a friend violently attacked the plan. His interest was whetted, and Professor Hull has not yet regretted the decision. American Democracy, Politics, Parties and Pres- sure Groupsg and Soullzern Politics. He is also a member of the President's Commission on Cam- paign Costs. In its recent official report, the Com- mission advised that certain types of political con- tributions become tax deductible in order to facili- tate the financing of political campaigns. There is a good possibility that Congress will enact the Commission's suggestion during its next session. Professor Key's long-felt hope is that things will clear up in the South. He sees two essential ingredients to any reformation of Southern politics: increased suffrage for the Negro, and the develop- ment of a competitive party system. While con- vinced that these changes will occur, he emphasizes the need for a gradual pace. Nevertheless, changes in the party structure in the South should become increasingly apparent during the next decade. Southerners have come to realize that both parties are equally unsympathetic to their position on the integration question. As a result, Professor Key believes that the Republicans will more and more come to represent the conservative positions in the South. With the defection of conservative Demo- crats to the Republican Party, the ideological divi- sion between the parties will parallel that in the North. There is no enthusiasm for these changes in the South, but intelligent Southerners realize there are few alternatives. Professor Key believes that it will be a long process of attrition, but the outcome is clear. GEORGE B. KISTIAKOWSKY, Abbott and James Lawrence Professor of Chemistry, is the prime example of the scientist who has achieved success first in the laboratories of Harvard and then in the council chambers of nations. Born in Kiev, Russia, in 1900, Dr. Kis- tiakowsky not only lived but fought through the Bolshevik Revolution as a member of the White Russian Army. After defeat he spent a year in Balkan concentration camps before entering the University of Berlin, where he earned his Ph.D. in chemistry. In 1930 Dr. Kistiakowsky joined the Har- vard Faculty, and by 1938 he was a full professor of chemistry. Professor Kistiakowsky takes considerable pride in his wide reputation as an experi- mentalist-a shirt-sleeve chemist who pre- fers standing in the laboratory to sitting behind a desk. One of his fields of investi- gation is the kinetics of free radicals-un- stable pieces split from molecules, which recombine in one-millionth of a second into stable molecular form. His knowledge of the chemical chain of events in explosions led him to Los Alamos during World War II. In 1944 he became chief of the explo- sions division of the Los Alamos laboratory of the Manhattan District, and there he de- signed the arrangement of conventional ex- plosives necessary to detonate the atomic bomb. Once involved in the world of statesmen, Professor Kistiakowsky drifted from the laboratory to the conference table. President Eisenhower chose him as chairman of the Science Advisory Committee. He has served as general advisor to the Disarmament Agency, as advisor to the Air Force and Defense Departments, and as a delegate to the Geneva conference on surprise attack in 1958. At present he is a member of President Kennedy's science advisory body. No doubt there are times when Dr. Kis- tiakowsky wishes he were back in his lab- oratory with the molecules, but there is no more time for it. In addition to his advisory duties, he teaches Chemistry 60 CPhysical Chemistryl and Chemistry 1. I have switched from research to education, he declares, but I am still interested in enrich- ing the knowledge of the world-for prac- tical reasons I cannot use my own hands. Professor Kistiakowsky is an adamant foe of the two-culture gap in American society. He finds it almost inconceivable that an undergraduate should leave Harvard with only the bare minimum of one Nat. Sci. course to his credit. We are living in an age of science and technology, he snaps, how can man afford not to understand his environment. I am not saying there is no use for humanists in our societyj' but the humanist contented in his unconcern for the sciences is a relic of another age, and fwith a smiley a trogloditef' Professor Kistiakowsky is himself a deeply cultured man with interests in the humani- ties and social sciences as well as chemistry. In the Harvard community his interests carry over to admissions and athletics-he is a member of both Faculty committees. During the fall he spends Saturday after- noons at the football stadium, during the winter he spends them on the ski slopes. 73 EASE 2 mfs 'ia 9 Q ,,,.u0'f ' Dom WILLIAM KLEMPERER, the popular young Associate Profes- sor of Chemistry, teaches Chemistry 132, 'introductory Statistical Mechanics and Chemistry 160, 'Structural In- organic Chemistry . His lectures, while not known for their organization, are famed for their enthusiasm and vibrance. A graduate of Harvard College, Professor Klemperer re- turned as a faculty member in 1954 after taking his Ph.D. at the University of California at Berkeley. He has been engaged for several years in intensive research on the struc- ture of molecules that exist only at high temperatures. In the study of simple molecules, explains Professor Klemperer, substances in molecular form often are stable only at ele- vated temperatures. For example, sodium chloride exists at room temperature only in complex crystals or solutiong but when vaporized, it separates into stable NaCl molecules whose properties can be studied by new experimental tech- niques, such as infrared spectroscopy. Professor Klemperer has been able to investigate such features of these molecules as their geometry, the stiffness of their bonds and their bind- ing energies. This research helps to explain the chemical properties of the particular molecule under investigation and also the general nature of chemical bonding between atoms. 74 WILLIAM L. LANGER, Coolidge Professor of History, has partici- pated in most of the important historical projects at Harvard since his arrival here in 1925. He was instrumental in founding the Center for Middle Eastern Studies, he was the director of the Russian Research Center, and went to Mexico to talk Leon Trotsky out of his papers. These Trotsky Papers are now among the most valuable historical collections at the University. Professor Langer teaches History 132, an extremely demanding course on 19th century Continental Europe. His brilliantly clear lectures enable his students to wend a clear path through the tangle of alliances, wars, and treaties which characterizes the century of imperialism. He also teaches part of a Byzantine his- tory course, and directs several doctorate theses. Professor Langer has little direct contact with undergraduates, since he has never had time to be active in the tutorial system. Like other Harvard Faculty members, Professor Langer spends some time in Washington, where he serves on the President's For- eign Intelligence Advisory Board, which is responsible for over- seeing the entire foreign intelligence apparatus. During the war, Professor Langer headed the Oflice of Coordinator of Information and received the Medal of Merit from President Truman, who said, Few operations of such scope have ever been carried out in time of war by the research brilliance and prodigious effort of one man. Professor Langer is occasionally criticized for his strong em- phasis on diplomatic history and the fundamentals in the face of a trend toward intellectual history. But Professor Langer claims that he was never wedded to diplomatic history. A new fashion in history is rarely defensibleg everything depends upon a correla- tion of factors. The really important new development in history, according to Professor Langer, is the rise of psychology in inter- preting historical events-not only in biographies, but in analyzing collective movements. Unfortunately, he adds, many historians talk without the proper training? One of the truly great teachers and brilliant researchers on the Harvard faculty, Professor Langer plans to retire in a very few years. He is at work this fall on another volume in his series, The Rise of Modern Europe, and plans to finish it this year. When he returns this spring to the podium of 132, his students will be able to follow again the complexities of European history-directed by an expert. i 3 5 2 .2 S i Z 1 Molecular genetics has tended to eclipse all other aspects of biology in the last decade. This field is primarily concerned with the molecular basis of transmission of hereditary traits and the mech- anism of their expression. The cornerstone of molecular genetics is the DNA molecule, the storehouse of genetic information, Much of the research going on in this field is concerned with elucidating the properties and functions of the DNA molecule. At the fore- front of this research is MATTHEW MESELSON, Associate Professor of Biology. Professor Meselson was one of the group which first clearly proved the semi-conservative method of DNA replica- tion. Using highly sophisticated methods of centrifuging and radioactive labeling, they were able to show that the two compli- mentary strands of the DNA molecules somehow separate, and that each strand reassociates itself with a newly formed compli- mentary strand. At the present time Dr. Meselson is studying the mechanism of genetic recombination, which can be visualized as resulting from the interchange of parts between different chromosomes. Professor Meselson came to Harvard in 1960 after doing his graduate work at Berkeley and Cal. Tech. He teaches Biology 140, a genetics course which was given for the first time this year. In line with his belief that Harvard undergraduates in the biolog- ical sciences are not getting enough training in the solution of specific problems, Dr. Meselson has emphasized the quantitative and problematical aspects of genetics. The course is based on the most recent developments in the field, and a substantial portion of the reading consists of current journal articles. The Harvard community and the academic world were stunned when ARTHUR DARBY NOCK, Froth- ingham Professor of the History of Religions, died suddenly January 11. Nock came here in 1930 from Cambridge Uni- versity, England. Since then, Nock's reputation has spread far beyond Harvard. During his first few years here, Nock published his best known books, Conversions 119331 and St. Paul C1938j. He was best known to undergraduates as the lec- turer in History of Religions 101. Professor Nock, a portly man usually seen with a disreputable hat and a long black umbrella, had a reputation for eccentricity which grew every year. He would occasionally come up behind some unsuspecting Eliot House resident, tap him on the shoulder and quote some unintelligible Latin. Pro- fessor Nock lived in Eliot House, in quarters which were built especially for him when the House was opened. A famous scholar and one of I-Iarvard's few eccentric personalities, Arthur Darby Nock will be deeply missed. DAVID LAYZER, Professor of Astronomy, makes great use of his background in physics, especially statistical and dynamic physics, in his studies of the origin and evolution of astronomical systems. He is now working on the theory of atomic structure and spectra, and the physics of the ionosphere. A native of Cleveland, Ohio, Professor Layzer received both his A.B. and Ph.D. from Harvard. After teaching and research assign- ments at the University of California and Princeton, he returned to Harvard in 1953. A recipient of the 1960 Bart Bok Prize for his research activities, Professor Layzer also has a deep interest in the humanities and the arts. He finds time to play first violin in a semi- professional chamber music group in addition to his concentrated efforts at the Observatory. LEONARD K. NASH, Professor of Chemistry and General Education, is an unusually modest man. When he was first interviewed for this article, he protested that 'Tm not doing anything. I'm not making weekend trips to Washingtong I'm not a big-time consultant, I don't even do much research. The fact is that Professor Nash spends almost all of his time teaching-a quickly disappearing profession at Harvard. He teaches Chemistry 2, an introductory course, and Natural Sciences 4, which is billed as science for non-scientists. It may seem strange for a scientist to spend a great deal of time away from his laboratory, but Professor Nash genuinely enjoys teaching undergraduates-particularly non-scientists. Natural Sciences 4 is a course on The Enterprise of Science, which each year is filled with eager economists, historians, and authors-most seeking an easy way out of the General Education A 2 f 4942072221 9 5 Mgjggdyfjf . f A . , , ,Ay f If Ee! if X H 7 ,Wy 1 ffzgfdf at ff if s 4 ,Y fa ff . f ,..M,,.,f,-,. mf., ,mf requirement. They receive a pleasant surprise, Professor Nash is no dry scientist. One of his principal interests is improving the teaching of science in high schools, and he has participated in making several movies on the subject. Working with James B. Conant, Professor Nash organized a course giving businessmen the principals of science necessary in their work. He is engaged in writing a text book on the Philosophy of Science which he plans to use in his course. Professor Nash does little research now, He has done extensive investigation of the analytical chemistry of gaseous systems, and he wrote the book, Qlmnlirulive Clzemical Afzalysis. On a faculty which is very devoted to published research and less concerned with teach- ing. Professor Leonard Nash is an exception welcomed by all under- graduates who have taken his courses. FRANCIS M. PIPKIN, Associate Professor of Physics, is one of the few professors who lectures in chinos. This is only one aspect of his highly informal lecture style, which is much appreciated by his students. Formerly the lecturer in Physics 1 and 151, he is now in charge of Physics 121, Special Laboratory in Physics. Professor Pipkin acquired his educational back- ground in diverse parts of the country. A native of Marianna, Arkansas, he did his undergraduate work at the University of Iowa, took his Ph.D. at 78 Princeton and was a Junior Fellow at Harvard from 1954-57. Professor Pipkin's held of interest is high energy nuclear physics, and a great deal of his time is spent either at the Cyclotron or the Cambridge Electron Accelerator. He has done research on the problems of radio frequency nuclear orienta- tion, atomic beams, and optical pumping. He is currently studying the nuclear properties of atoms in solids and tenuous gases. During his seven years as a University Pro- fessor, Paul Tillich often urged students to grasp the meaning of religion through some involvement of their own. The ap- proach of KRISTER STENDAHL, John H. Mor- rison Professor of New Testament Studies, is quite different. To his students in Humani- ties 118, Stendahl tries to -communicate the necessity of a critical historical attitude in examining the emergence of Christianity through a study of New Testament writings. 1'Existential involvement, he feels, is mainly a source of perpetual misconcep- tions in such studies. Professor Stendahl, who came to the Har- vard Divinity School in 1954 from Uppsala University in Sweden, believes American students generally lack the analytical atti- tude and historical perspective that he feels are essential to historical and biblical schol- arship. Instead of approaching history with a continental relativism, American stu- dents find it difficult to see and question alternative interpretations. They approach religious history with the attitude that it is improper to deal with religion as critically as other material, and Professor Stendahl also notes their tendency to read Biblical and philosophical texts in terms of their own problems and not in terms of historical relevance. Professor Stendahl's own theological posi- tion is one that he describes as liberal Cath- olic. A Lutheran by tradition and convic- tionn and an ordained priest in the Church of Sweden, he sees Christianity as a histori- cal phenomenon with the traditions for which Catholicism is responsible and with the sacraments as an indispensable expres- sion of the nature of Christ. But his atti- tude is liberal in the sense that one cannot simply repeat traditional concepts and for- mulas, but must recognize that they need re-translation and critical reflection. In addition to serving as a priest in the Church of Sweden, Professor Stendahl was chaplain at Uppsala University from 1948-50 and served as president of the Student Chris- tian Movement in Sweden in 1952-53. He has participated in several ecclesiastical con- ferences and has been active in the Lutheran World Federation. A Guggenheim Fellow in 1959-60, Dr. Stendahl is the editor and co-author of The Scrolls and the New Testa- melt! and the author of The School of St. Matthew and I ts Use of the Old Testament. Since 1961 when the Radcliffe House System was initiated, KENNETH THIMANN, Higgens Professor of Biology, has been Master of East I-louse. While this position has made him well-known throughout the College, he has long been internationally recognized for his work in biology. Born in England in 1904, Professor Thimann did his undergraduate and graduate work at the University of London. After spending five years at Cal Tech, he came to Harvard in 1935. At present he is a lecturer in Biology 2, teaches two undergraduate courses in plant physiology, and has eight doctoral candidates working under him. Before becoming Master of East House, Professor Thimann was a fellow of Eliot House. Outside the Uni- versity his duties are equally diverse, he is on the National Research Council of the National Academy of Science, is Chairman of the Division of Biol- ogy and Medical Sciences of the National Academy, is on the governing board of the American Institute of Biological Sciences, and is on the Presi- dent's Science Advisory Committee. In biology, Prof. Thimann's main work has been in plant growth hor- mones, particularly on their relationship to phototropism. Although his many activities have left him little time for research, he has been working lately on plant pigments and their determination by ribonucleic acid CRNAJ. Professor Thimann has hesitated to form any specific plan for the future development of East House. The main question, he believes, is how far a Radcliffe House can develop something new and how far it should follow Harvard's lead. He feels that any answer must include a large unified House containing the smaller domestic units that Radcliffe girls seem to prefer. wb QQ r V 'iwwfw f- - .5?Sx3?:N:' :ww ' ' .'

A proper introduction of Dr. Whitla would include Director of the Office of Tests, As- sistant Professor of Education, Lecturer in Social Relations, Research Associate in Edu- cation, Associate Directorof Admissions, and Freshman Seminar Leader. Operations center for Dr. Whitla is the Office of Tests on the top floor of Massa- chusetts Hall, and it is the Office of Tests which claims his primary attention. Dr. Whitla is one of a rare breed of test directors who opposes tests Cobjective tests that isj, and objective psychological tests are even worse . . . you might say I am the least enthusiastic supporter of objective tests of any test director in the country. Tests, says Dr. Whitla, are like a patent drugg they have their place, but one must proceed with scepticism and caution or they give only patent solutions . Dr. Whitla runs the Office of Tests as a research center which collects and analyzes data which is sent on to aid the faculty and administration. Recent studies conducted by Dr. Whitla include an examination of the drop-out rate C The New Yorker came out first J, a probe into the psychological inilu- ence of Harvard on undergraduates, and a life study of Harvard graduates. If Dr. Whitla is concerned with the Har- vard testing program, he is enthusiastic about the Freshman seminar program. He conducts a social science study of voting behavior and enjoys it as much as the Freshmenf' Dr. Whitlals antipathy to objective testing carries over to his philosophy of Harvard admissions-he opposes the one-percent policy in favor of a plan which includes people of excellence in many helds, not only academics. But as a psychologist and as a teacher Whitla devoutly defends the Harvard edu- cational system as one of freedom and self- discipline. The line between independence and paternalism is very hue, says Dr. Whitla. His work in many helds affects how and where Harvard draws that line. af 'ZA A FINANCIAL SKETCH OF HARVARD Total investments of more than 3750 million sapply the University with only one-yifth the income it needs to meet annual expenses. On the twenty-eighth of October, 1636, the General Court of the Massachusetts Bay Colony agreed to give 261400 towards a schoale or colledge in Cambridge. Today, three hundred and twenty-seven years later, Harvard's assets total S750,000,000g this figure excludes campus, buildings, books, museums, and equipment. With these five categories valued at a conservative 35300 million, the net worth of the University is well over one billion dollars, making it the only billion dollar University in the world. Harvardls great wealth, however, is matched by gargantuan expenses. Total ex- penses of the University for its fiscal year ending June 30, 1962, were 588,521,932 Total income for the year was fi,S91,607,864. But only 28 per cent of income, or 525,928,- 892, came from student tuition, room, and meal fees. Ten years ago, tuition was less than half of the current figure of 331520. But it, along with room and meal fees, accounted for 37 per cent of the University's income. Thus, even though it has grown rapidly during the last decade, income from students is cover- ing a steadily decreasing percentage of the Universityls expenses. Two major factors-the market for edu- cation and a substantial reorientation of the University's activities-account for the de- cline in importance of income from students. The Administration feels that with the average undergraduate spending 353,000 for a year in Cambridge tvs. S1600 for the aver- S2 age cost of a year of college in the United Statesj, any additional increase in fees can only be made at the risk of making Harvard even more prohibitive to students in lower and middle income families. Since the latter half of the 19th century, the fathers of roughly three-quarters of the College's students have been professional men, managers, or executives. In 1960, Sey- mour Harris, Lucius N. Littauer Professor of Political Economy, estimated that the average income of a Harvard student's fam- ily was roughly S17,000, compared with an average family income in the U. S. of about 355200. The gap has probably remained, and may have grown slightly, although the University awarded 31,585,000 in scholarships to about 1300 students this year, and students re- ceived another S500,000 from outside schol- arship programs. The importance of income from students has also declined because of the vast expan- sion of research at the University since World War ll. Harvard has been in the forefront in continuing the fantastic pace of the Atomic Age-but not without great ex- pense. Ten years ago University expenses were S33,500,000, less than 40 per cent of the present figure. The growth in scope of University activities has been the primary factor in this rise. In terms of cost, most of this expansion has occurred in the natural sciences, although resident scholars Cwho do little teachingj are now established at the i:-: ...- ,.

H- 'SA .ffl On the twenty-eighth of October, 1636, the General Court of the Massachusetts Bay Colony agreed to give 'L400 towards a schoale or colledge, in Cambridge. Russian Research Center and other special centers founded in the last fifteen years. In 1962, income from the famous Harvard endowment fund covered S19,900,000, or only 21.7 per cent of the total expenses. Al- though the total market value of investments has quadrupled since 1940, total expenses have risen by more than 6M times. Invest- ment income covers a correspondingly lower percentage of total expenses. But until the 1930's investment income covered about half the Universityas expenses, compared with the roughly one-fifth it covers today. Despite their relative decline in impor- tance, the absolute amount of Harvardls in- vestments is impressive. The University of Texas, with oil on its own land, has sur- passed Yale as the second most heavily en- dowed university in the United States. Both fall short of Harvard by more than 5200,- 000,000. Although it has long been the largest uni- versity endowment in the nation, Harvardls investments began modestly. In 1777, after 141 years, they still totalled only 555,000 Funds were managed by treasurer John Han- cock, who like most of his successors Cin- cluding the present treasurer Paul C. Cabot '21J was a Boston investment banker. In 1832 the treasurer reported 8509,408 in general investment, most of it in notes and mortgages. The University's 515,000 worth of common stocks were primarily in canal and bridge companies. Despite this wealth, the University ran a lottery to finance the construction of Hollis Hall in 1835. 83 By 1860 general investment had risen to Sl,145,000, of which iB149,000 was in New Englandls burgeoning textile mills. During the next two decades the University bought heavily in railroad bonds, and by 1880 these accounted for nearly one-quarter of general investments totaling 353,000,000 For the last two decades of the 19th cen- tury the University invested heavily in Boston and Cambridge real estate. At one point it owned much of Washington Street. By 1900 its total investments had climbed to 3510,- 000,000, and real estate represented more than one-quarter of this. During the twentieth century the Univer- sity gradually stopped acquiring new real estate, and, after many troubles with man- aging in the 1920's, sold most of its prop- erty. Last June 30, investment real estate was valued at only S1,411,137. Although University investments have flourished in other areas, liquidating nearly all of its real estate may have been somewhat costly be- cause of Harvard's current diiiiculties in buy- ing property in Cambridge. Harvard's endowment increased most steeply during the 1920,s, 1940,s, and 1950's -all three of which were generally inflation- ary periods. As it sold its real estate, the University acquired more common stock, and after 1929 it also reduced its percentage of corporate bonds in favor of stock holdings. As might be expected, Harvard's port- folio contains a heavy dose of blue chips. American Telephone and Telegraph Com- pany is the leading corporate holding with ..,....a K? 4 fx, ,,. img, M 6, Xa Q The average undergraduate spends 53,000 for a year in Cambridge, while the average cost of a year of college in the United States is only S1,600. 84 3311.3 million in stocks and 310.5 million in bonds. The largest single common stock holding, however, is Texaco Oil, which presently is worth S17 million. IBM is second with a market value of S14 million. These are fol- lowed by AT8cT, and three more oil com- panies. V The University has also invested heavily in electric utilities in Florida. Its stocks and bonds in two Florida power companies total 513.5 million at the market. Among the moderate vices, Harvard owns 32.5 million worth of Reynolds Tobacco and S490,000 worth of stock in Anheuser-Busch, brewer of Budweiser Beer. Compared to Yale, Princeton, and Colum- bia, Harvard has a somewhat higher percent- age of its funds invested in common stock. Its real estate holdings are comparatively smaller, as Yale has extensive holdings in New York City and Chicago, while Colum- bia owns valuable property in New York, including the land on which Rockefeller Center is built. In terms of annual gifts from alumni, Har- vard compares rather unfavorably with its Ivy League rivals. The Harvard Fund re- ported that last year it received 31,338,563 from 35.3 per cent of Harvard's 47,534 alumni. At Yale 55 per cent of the alumni gave 52.6 million. And at Dartmouth, which has only 28,000 alumni, 75.9 per cent of them gave 51,215,740 Thus, the Harvard endowment grows meatier principally on heavy special purpose gifts and on bequests. Yet despite the awesome size of the Har- vard endowment, Harvard finances have undergone a major change since World War II. With the percentage of expenses covered by endowment income and student fees steadily declining, the difference has been made up by increasing gifts for current use Ca large part from the great foundationsj and increasing government support. Last year government grants and contracts reached fB25,636,606, and at 27.7 per cent of the budget, were the University's single largest source of income. By comparison, govern- ment money covered only 1.5 per cent of the budget in 1941 and in 1947 still amounted to only 7.6 per cent. Government money has been principally used to iinance the growth of research, espe- cially scientific research, which has charac- terized the development of the University T21 2 .jf 7 -t . fi gl gf 6 gy if Q OZ 'T is '45 1750592 asw - ATHLETICS BOARD GIFTS TUITION PRINTING 8: LODGING ETC. in the last decade. The importance of the government money varies greatly in the dif- ferent departments. Most heavily dependent is the astronomy observatory, which receives 80 per cent of its funds from the government. Both the Medical School and the School of Public Health depend on the government for about two-thirds of their income. In the Faculty of Arts and Sciences, govermnent funds cover about 20 per cent of expenses, with heaviest concentration in the science, economics and government departments. In the Law School the government contribution is less than one per cent. So far the government chips in nothing to help cover the 32.3 million spent for the Houses and the Yard dormitories, or the 33.1 million budget of the dining halls. How- ever, it will be giving indirect help in these areas through the National Defense Educa- tion program next year. Only the Faculty Club, with expenses of S269,205, seems rather permanently free from the hand of government. Federal support, however, poses great problems. It makes the University more vulnerable financially. As more and more soft money-annual government appro- priations and gifts for immediate use-be- comes part of the budget, the financial future of the University becomes less certain. For unlike tuition and endowment income which officials call f'hard money, there is no as- surance that these funds will continue per- petually. The soft money also places a burden 85 , if iff 4 ffl Kg Wish 49 X I . . f 1 55270702 QQZZM ENDOWIVIENT GOVERNMENT on the future by encouraging the University to add permanent overhead, such as build- ings and staff on tenure, for short-run proj- ects. Many government contracts pay for specific costs of a project, but not for general overhead expenses, such as lighting and heating. There have also been cases where the government's half of a matching grant has been insufficient, and the University has had to make up the difference. President Pusey has emphasized that gov- ernment support of scientific research may undermine the traditional balance among the various fields of learning-that science is being stressed to the detriment of the social sciences and humanities. The University has long cherished its freedom of action and there is also fear that with increasing govern- ment financing, there will be increasing gov- ernment control. Many government grants come with a large number of regulations and requirements. Foes of government financing point to the recent dispute over security pro- cedures at the Cambridge Electron Acceler- ator as ominous signs of things to come. Nevertheless, Harvard has become, and will undoubtedly remain, one of the govern- ment's major research centers. With ex- penses growing at more than five per cent a year, dependence on government money has increased dramatically. In the next decade this dependence on government will probably become even greater, and may, just possibly, turn the University from a private institution into a quasi-public one. , VTEFFI'-Ifi.E:Fa.

The hastily-formed group captained by Jim Parry had challenged the touring Oxford Undergraduate Tiddly- winks Society and, after the British spent two days teaching the Americans how to squidge Cshootj, historyls first international inter- collegiate tiddlywinks match was hnally played. Harvard lost 7-21 but, scoring more points against Oxford than had any other American contingent, promptly claimed the Ivy League championship. A month and a half later several Harvard Band tubas and 50 bewildered spectators cheered the Gargoyle team on to the first of its fourteen straight victories as it dumped Holy Cross 23-12 in the Phillips Brooks House parlor. The score was announced during the Harvard-Holy Cross football game that afternoon and provoked the larg- est cheer of the day CHarvard lost in foot- balll. The next Saturday the Gargoyle Un- dergraduate Tiddlywinks Society CGUTSJ showed its depth as one team defeated Mt. Holyoke 31-11 in the parlor and another traveled to New York to beat Columbia 11-3. The day was unfortunately marred by Mt. Holyoke's theft of the John Harvard Challenge Cup-a shiny hubcap displaying the North and South American continents and emblematic, as Gargoyle President Al Goldberg said, of uhemispheric supremacyf' Dartmouth fell the next weekend 37-12 and then, in a gala Halloween eve match broadcast over WBZ-radio, Harvard won a pumpkin and a 36-13 victory from Sim- mons. In rapid succession toppled Penn 26-9, Boston University 51-19, and Welles- ley Can away gamej 46-17. Life magazine sent two correspondents to cover the Har- vard-Brown match and the GUTS responded by providing even more tubas, a sherry break and nine beautiful cheerleaders wav- ing pom-poms. To the chants of Hold that squopj' and Apply game theoryv Harvard triumphed 40-16. And next Saturday the same loyal fans flocked to the parlour to watch the Gargoyle beat hapless Yale 32-10, thereby becoming the 1962 Ivy League tid- dlywinks champions. Several tiddlywinkers journeyed to New This picture is a rare closeup of the soft rug techniquel' of GUTS Captain James Parry.

The same week one Volkswagen, one Radcliffe team and two Harvard teams headed to the Big City again for the Eastern Invitational.

Over Christmas recess team members Tom Houston and Hank Schwarz singlehandedly won the National Invitational in Los Angeles as Harvard beat Camong othersj USC and UCLA. The GUTS had become undefeated American champions. Letters poured in to the team from all over the country as colleges, high schools and the game manufacturers, Parker Bros., tried to find out the rules of the game or to issue challenges. But since the GUTS have lost its only two players who own cars Cone being top Carnovsky, or usquiclge-in-one man John Kernochanj and since Harvard has already defeated or frightened every school in the Boston area, it looks as if Gar- goyle tiddlywinks will lie dormant. ,Til next year.

And for the novice, it is probably easier to jump off the Lars Anderson Bridge naked than to bail out at 3000 feet with what he has been assured is a parachute. Even of those students who jump again, most cannot think during a 120-205 mph free fall. Somehow the members of the Harvard Parachute Club manage to treat the fear as a by-product and think as they drop-learn- ing not to spin, to keep spread-eagle and to land on target. Team captain and Club presi- dent Nick Soutter says, Harvard makes a good parachute club because its students are bright and rational. He also notes that a lot of good Harvard skiers are Club mem- bers. For whatever reasons, the Crimson did win the lirst American Intercollegiate Parachute meet in 1956 and finished third in the same contest in April 1962. In Janu- ary I963, in a tournament disorganized and cut short by winds, Bob Thompson and Dave Wigner won the first Canadian Intercolle- giate. The Club has eleven active members and a long list of those who intend to jump, in- cluding some Clifiies. The B.U. team, Har- vard's biggest competitor, has two girl mem- bers and there is also a parachute team at Wheaton. Smith is currently thinking of forming a team but the relatively high female accident rate might make them wary. Soutter feels girls are under too much tension when they jump. There have been no fatalities in any of the over 5000 Mansfield jumps but the para- chutist always fears. He either jumps once for experience or lets the sheer joy of de- scent conquer him and gets hooked on the sport. Sam Beer, 52-year-old professor of Government and one of the club's two ad- visors, has the bug-six jumps and one broken ankle to his credit. The first Mexpe- rience costs only S25 for jump parapher- nalia and four hours of ground trainingg this student training allows the team to pay its own way. But the individual team member makes an average 120 jumps a year and spends S200 for equipment and use of the plane. It's not the money so much as the time. Says one Harvard parachutist, I al- most failed out because of this bloody sport. But they keep it up. The Crimson will send at least three competitors to the Ameri- can lnternational Team tryouts and will go to the Intercollegiates this spring with two or three teams. And in May the three mem- bers Call seniorsj of the Harvard first team will attempt history's first free fall baton pass with diplomas. ELEPHANT RACING No one quite knows how it got started and probably most Harvard students still do not believe it, but on May ll, 1962, Harvard University won the first Intercollegiate Ele- phant Racing championship. Crimson sports editor Joe Russin and the elephant, Sonita, did not win any of the three races but they managed to collect enough total points on finishes, style, and performance factors to collect the Sweepstakes championship award. For two mad weeks preceding the race Sonita captured the imagination and conver- sation of the College. A young C13 years oldj feminine teen-ager whom Russin de- scribed as ttvery affectionatef Sonita in- spired hundreds of students to contribute nickels, dimes and quarters to pay for the costs of a Harvard entrant. Two thousand students gathered at Widener's steps for a victory rally. The four-ton movie star came through magnificently on the day of the race, surpassing all expectations. Host school and originator of the idea, Orange County State College in Fullerton, California, had been ranked as the solid favorite for the race. But Russin, who spent a frantic day learning to ride elephants and studying Hindu manuscripts for riding tips, outmaneuvered his fellow jockeys. Ten thou- sand fans and national television cameras recorded the historic event. The whole thing started as a joke. The dean of students at Orange drafted a model constitution for undergraduate clubs and called it the elephant racing society. Several students formed the mythical club, and after long deliberation decided that the most worthwhile activity for such a group would be an elephant race. In jest, letters were drafted to several colleges, one of them Har- vard. Sports Editor Russin saw a funny story in the idea, and called California for more information. Two days later he hesi- tantly agreed to sponsor a Harvard entry, never for a moment thinking there would be an elephant race. Russin and Peter Gold- mark combed the college for contributions and in the process discovered most under- graduates thought the whole thing was a Crimson hoax. Fears of a hoax plagued Russin as well, who wasn't sure the thing was for real until an enthusiastic group of coeds met him at the Los Angeles Airport. One big problem with racing elephants 91 is that if they get mad they are apt to keep going for hours. And sure enough, the first elephant to head off down the 120-yard oat field, dubbed Dumbo Downs, went right through the barricades and onto a nearby highway. This was the only mishap of the day, however, and the rest of the races went off without incident. Even after Sports Illustrated covered the race Harvard students steadfastly refused to believe it took place. Despite this incredulity the friends of Harvard Elephant Racing quietly announced last spring that they had every intention of defending their crown the following spring. There was even talk of an eastern elimination race to be held at the Stadium. Mahout Joe Russin salutes Harvard students who pelted the Widener steps with small change to send Sonita to victory.

In the three short years since its opening, the Loeb Drama Center has become indeed a center for Harvard theatre. There were fewer than ever House shows this past year, but the Harvard Dramatic Club, oflicial producing organization for the Loeb, attracted more students to participate in its plays, and with its superb facilities, increas- ing technical experience, and lack of financial worries, was able to handle eight major pro- ductions and many workshops with growing skill. The iirst new show of the year was the HDC-Loeb production of Garcia Lorcais Blood Wedding. Director Nicholas Delbanco had worked all summer on the script, and his meticulous direction showed especially in the crowd scenes and the controlled, grow- ing intensity of the tragedy. This last was achieved by careful alternation of stylized and realistic elements, for which Paul Sapounakis, set provided a constant base of reference, an atmosphere at the same time earthy and poetically detached. For once Schroeder's inevitably dark lighting was just right, and through his ominous pools of moonlight moved some very fine actors, not- ably Philip Kerr as Leonardo, Tina Morse as The Mother, and Anne Lilley Kerr as The Bride. .lere Whiting's Moon was all chilling voice, and Edna Selan Epstein's Death all writhing movement. And the entire cast managed Lorcals diiiicuit poetry quite capably. August Strindbergisiexpressionistic cham- ber-play, The Ghost Sonata, was the second HDC fall effort. A tiexible new translation was supplied by Chris and Bitte Rawson, Thomas Babe directed with verve and intelligence, and Richard Simons, Adrienne Harris and Stanford J anger were superb as Hummel, The Mummy, and Johansson. Maria Livanos was almost as delightful as usual as The Girl, but her opposite number, The Student, was ineptly portrayed, and The Ghost Sonata as a whole was only a partial success. It is a difficult, obscure play, though Babeis direction convinced many that it may indeed be a brilliant contribution to the literature of morality. Professor Robert Chapman, director of the Loeb, directed the iinal HDC show of the fall, William Congreveis Love for Love. Chapman thought the 'ttissue of epigrams in prose of this Restoration comedy re- quired actors with more than usual experi- ence and sense of style, therefore he went outside the undergraduate body to come up with five brilliant performances: Paul Schmidt's Tattle, Lynn Milgrimis Mrs. Frail, Peter Haskellis Valentine, Don Lyons, Fore- sight, and Johanna Vogel's Miss Prue. Al- most as good were Sam Abbott's blustery Sir Sampson and Kendra Stearns' gracefully self- contained Angelica. Christopher Rawson was a competent Scandal, and Kellogg Fair- bank an engaging Ben. Chapman moved all these and more around Don Souleas period set with unfailing vivacity and elegance, aided by the gorgeous costumes designed by Olga Liepmann, and applauded lustily by the largest Harvard audiences of the year. Quincy's Richard III was the Term's iirst House production. Stanley F. Pickett played the title role and realized most of the part's potentialities in a magnihcent performance. Arthur Friedman as Clarence and Andreas Teuber as Buckingham provided more than satisfactory support. Director Samuel Abbott was particularly successful in getting his many other actors, most of them quite in- experienced, to speak the verse intelligently and keep the main action of the play moving at a good pace. If Richard III seemed overly long, it was due to the diiiiculties of com- fortably accommodating a large audience in the Quincy dining hall, not to the quality of this enjoyable, well-staged production. The other major House show of the fall was Kirkland's Agassiz production of Oliver Goldsmith's comedy, She Stoops to Conquer. It had the misfortune to be running simul- taneously with Love for Love, and suffered at the box oflice from its comparative lack of polish. But director Thomas Lee Hinkle managed to infuse enough boisterous gaity into his cast to carry them safely past the play's more delicate, charming moments, and every legitimate bit of bawdy was handled with admirable gusto. Hinkle was especially fortunate to have Jill Saxon as Constance and Stephen Botein as Mr. Hardcastle, while Charlotte Eakin's Miss Hardcastle and Richard Lowenthal's Tony Lumpkin spar- kled occasionally. In December Radcliffeis Grant-in-Aid presented Cole Porter's Silk Stockings as their annual fund raising musical. This was not one of their best productions, just as it is not one of Porter's top efforts. The hand of director Anthony Graham-White was nowhere evident, but choreographer Ciji Ware arranged several good numbers, the best being the second-act Hail Bibinskyf' Pat Fayls Ninotchka was a constant delight and Betsy Howard's American film-star was an entertaining exhibition of the most in- credible vitality. Dan Cheever sang the romantic lead pleasantly, John Kemp stood out as Brankov, and David Nelson's orches- tra made up in volume for what they lacked in number of players. The Harvard Gilbert and Sullivan Players think they have more organizational esprit de corps than any other Harvard theatrical group. They may be right. At least their claim to never having put on a bad show seems generally true. Their sixteenth effort, last fall's The Yeomen of the Guard, came as close to failure as any other, though only from a purist point of view. Instead of a gentle mocking of Victorian society, director Mary Lou Sullivan as Elsie Maynard, with chorus in Yeomen 93 Andreas Teuber as Jerry and Samuel Abbott as Peter in Edward Albeeis recent off-Broadway success, The Zoo Story, given its Boston-area premiere at the Loeb experimental theatre in February. Directed by Thomas Griffin, this was one of the most popular productions of the season. Cand GSzS Presidentj Ken Tigar and musical director David Klausner served up a produc- tion chock full of robust Elizabethan uyoks, boils, and sundry other howl makersf' The audiences loved it, although some com- plained that the music in this most serious of all the GSLS repertoire was sacrihced to the relentless foolery. Such a charge could not Alice tAnn Izardj taunts and Carol tRachel Kellnerj suffers in Charles Hart's new play, In the Golden Prime, at the Loeb Experimental Theatre. be levelled against Terrence Currier, who sang Colonel Fairfax beautifully, and with wry good humor. Peter Skolnik was quite equal to the demanding role of Jack Point. In April the G8zS Players did The Sorcerer. Directed by David Horton Mills, this seldom done piece breathed all the sweet freshness of a soft green spring. Tom Walkerls musical direction and Mills' inventive, dazzling choreography kept The Sorcerer floating above ground all evening. Tom Bell, Peter Skolnik and Barbara Kimball led a well- tutored cast. The HDC-Loeb spring season opened with Thomas Babe's The Pageant of Awkward Shadows, the first annual Phyllis Anderson Award Production. Established by a grant from the distinguished playwrite Robert An- derson in honor of his late wife, this award is given to the best original, student-written play in the HDC's annual contest. Babe's play is based on Chaucer's Clerk's Tale, the story of Patient Griselda. In this highly dramatic version Chaucer's happy reconciliation becomes instead a final catas- trophe which sweeps up Griselda, her children, and their father Lord Walter, whose arrogant attempt to control all around him is the mainspring of the play. As in his earlier production of The Ghost Sonata, Babe is above all concerned with the impli- cations of personal morality and responsi- bility. Under George Hamlinis mature direction Pageant was a visually exciting evening tthanks also to Peter Prangnellls striking setj. Lord Walter was compellingly portrayed by Richard Simons and Harry Smithis youthful Richard was perfect. Carol Schechtmanls Griselda was all that a Chaucer-fancier could desire, and Philip Kerr had some fine moments in the diiiicult role of The Stranger. The remainder of the HDC's spring Loeb program consisted of four plays: Sean O'Casey,s Juno and the Paycock, a tragedy acted out by comedians, directed by Samuel Abbott and starring Lynn Milgrim, Andreas Teuber, and Ken Tigarg an original one-act opera, based on an Old French morality, The Cursed Dauncers, written for the Loeb by Alfred Guzzetti with a libretto by Thomas Babe, Plautus' The Braggart Warrior, the granddaddy of all Falstaiiian comedies, brilliantly translated by Erich Segal, directed by David Cole, starring Eric Martin, Lynn Milgrim, Pat Fay, and the ubiquitous Sam Abbott, and I Henry IV, the only play which is done at Harvard at least once every four Opposite page: The General fDon Lyonsj puts on his boots oblivious of The Pony Girl fDiana Alleuj in Genet's The Balcony.

There were several other House produc- tions this spring. By far the best was Eliot's Measure for Measure, produced by A. P. Gibb and directed with great sincerity by Thomas Babe. This seldom performed dark comedy held the Eliot dining hall stage ide- signed by Schroederj with remarkable vigor. Winthrop and North House joined forces under the leadership of James Silverthorne to present Jean Anouilh's Time Remembered at Agassiz in March. Winthrop then capped an amazingly active year with their annual musical, this year Where's Charley? The Loeb Experimental Theatre was busy all year. Among original student-written plays presented were Charles I-Iart's In the Golden Prime, Carter Wilson's The Un- weeded Garden of Cora Jenks, David Cole's The Bolts and Bars to Go and The Laocoon Nobody Knows, Jonathan Sisson's Minsky O'Ryan and the Magic Bathrobe, Marie- France Lathrop's stunning mime Others, I am not the First, and John Hallowell's A Short Safari Through Purgatory. Christie Dickason and North House produced Lorca's House of Bernarda Alba, Thomas Griffin directed Edward Albeels The Zoo Story, Eric Bregman directed three Chechov farces, Anne Lilley Kerr and Kirkland House put on Yellow Jacket by Hazelton and Benrimo, and David Howe and Quincy House were responsible for O,Casey's Pound on Demand and Bedtime Story. The HDC's entry in the Yale Drama Festival was Georges Feydeauls Please Don't Walk Around in the Nude, directed by Rol Maxwell in the Bernier translation. David Mills, Kendra Stearns and Paul Schmidt starred, sweeping the awards at New Haven. HDC President Thomas Vachon, ex-presi- dent Charles Hayford, and publicity director Brad Butler managed this, as well as most of the other Loeb shows during the year. University theatre has an obligation to present plays not usually done commercially. By this standard, 1962-63 was indeed a theatrically exciting year. Strindberg, for example, hadnlt been given a major Harvard production since before 1945. The recently' announced photography courses at the Visual Arts Center hint at the possibility of some eventual course credit for undergraduate dramatic activity. But whatever happens, Cambridge can look for- ward to another good season at the Loeb under next year's director, Professor Daniel Seltzer, and the variety of House productions will continue to demonstrate the widespread interest in drama at Harvard.

When the spring program, filled with standards popular with the Orchestra fBeethoven, Tchaikovsky, and Brahmsj was released, mutual acceptance was complete. The second in the triumvirate of major musical organizations at Harvard is the com- plex comprised of the Harvard Glee Club, the Harvard Freshman Glee Club, and the Radcliffe Choral Society. The high points of the season for the R.C.S. and the Glee Club were the Christmas concert, the Ameri- can premiere of Frank Martin's Le Mystere de la Nativite with the Harvard-Radcliffe Orchestra, and the spring performance of Brahm's Ein Deutsches Requiem with the Boston Symphony Orchestra. The Martin premiere included a performance at Sanders which was received with mixed approval Cquestioning not the performance, but the music itselfl and a performance at Carnegie Conductor Elliot Forbes leads a group thrrfugh Quartet Trials.

Hall in New York City which coincided with a blizzard that nearly stopped the city in its tracks and kept many listeners home. The Glee Club hit the road as usual for performances at various colleges, particu- larly one gala evening at Smith, singing a major work by Heinrich Schiitz. The group also sang at several Harvard Clubs and men's colleges in the nearby area and joined the Radcliffe Choral Society for a trip to the Washington, D.C., Harvard Club on Wash- ington's Birthday. The third great eminence of Harvard music is the unquenchable Harvard Band, well known this year to the citizens of a Connecticut college town through whose streets it paraded at 3 AM on the way to the Columbia game in New York. The New Haven police took a dim view of the whole affair, but the spirit of the Band seems undamaged. Becoming more highbrow each year, the Band filled Sanders Theater on Dartmouth weekend for a program of semi-classical music and football songs. The Bandis answer to the traditional Yard concerts given by the Glee Club on the steps of Widener Li- brary is a performance pointed in exactly the opposite direction, from the steps of Memorial Church. But the fame of the Harvard Band, al- though bolstered by concerts and shenani- gans, rests in its football game drills and musical performances. For these in particu- lar, credit is due the conductor, James Walker, and the drillmaster, David Ward. Only occasionally incomprehensible, the half-time displays probably make more sense to the average spectator's date than the game itself, they certainly sound better. The remainder of Harvard's musical life, and possibly the most characteristic part, is the music provided by small groups in the Houses and elsewhere. Notable among them is that biggest little orchestra in Cambridge, the Bach Society Orchestra, which yearly presents to the Harvard community the mu- sic of that prolific musical family. Another group which unquestionably merits attention is the Harvard-Radcliffe Organ Society, a band of ardent enthusiasts who recently res- urrected the old organ in Phillips Brooks House and who have already presented a number of concerts. In a lighter vein, the Harvard-Musical Theater Group, organized in late 1961 to provide facilities for perform- ance of original musical works, presented Lute, Flute, Lyre, and Sackbut, a iinancial loss but a moral victory, in its first year, and, from this position, is moving ahead with new production ideas. .

Never Willing to be con- tent with the past progress, the group was busy planning tours to Montreal and India. Dunster House's answer to the same ques- tion, the Dunster Dunces, also had a busy year. An uinformaln singing group, they entertained variously throughout New Eng- land with such tender classics as HWinter is the Time to Snow Your Girl. Music is bet- ter than ever at Harvard. ?'ev29! POLITICS Young Republicans' Presi- dent Peter Wallison is greeted by House Minority Leader Charles Halleck during the HYR's trip to Washington in April. The Harvard community's keen interest in politics and public affairs was again mani- fested by a series of strong programs among Harvard's various political organizations and, in an election year, by the active participa- tion of current residents and alumni in the Massachusetts political scene. At a time when Harvard men were al- ready well identified with the national gov- ernment, it was not too surprising that they should also play some role in the 1962 Senatorial contest. What was surprising was that both Republican and Democratic candi- dates tLodge and Kennedy, respectivelyj were alumni, while a Harvard professor, with the earnest backing of a sizable number of the college community, became an Inde- pendent candidate for the Senatorial post. While both regular candidates received sup- port and aid from campus groups and mem- bers, the candidacy of Professor H. Stuart Hughes helped further to focus national at- tention upon the intensity and diversity of political conviction at Harvard. When the results had finally been tabulated, Edward Kennedy had lodged an impressive victory over his two opponents and was en route to Washington. Among the regular organizations, the Harvard Young Republican Club Cstill unaf- Hliated with its Radcliffe counterpartj carried out a year of varied activities. Once called the West Point of Republican Politics by Governor Thomas E. Dewey, the HYRC is interested in developing potential leaders of the party, in serving as a focal point and spokesman for Harvard Republicans, and in furthering interest in politics among Harvard students. Among their activities was a jour- ney to Washington for lunch with all Repub- lican Senators and Congressmen who gradu- ated from Harvard. This meeting, under the sponsorship of Senator Saltonstall, received widespread coverage in the press CN.Y. Times, Time magazine, etc.j. In addition, the HYRC sponsored in the last two years talks by Governor Nelson Rockefeller of New York and by Senators Goldwater, Keat- ing, and Bush. The HYRC attempted to obtain spokesmen from the whole spectrum of Republican thought in order to provide an opportunity for the development of a dia- logue between branches of the party. The HYRC also received practical train- ing in campaign work, it also planned an analysis of the 1962 elections to be compiled by a committee of the club. The club, in addition, published a set of statements on such pressing contemporary issues as Medi- care, discrimination in labor unions, and negotiations with the Soviet Union. Turning from the largest Harvard politi- , if ,Q H? f 3 1 he I cal organizationn to the largest Harvard- Radcliife political group, we come to the Young Democratic Club of Harvard and Radcliffe. The primary functions of the YDCHR are political action and political education. It performs the former by cam- paigning for Democratic candidates and for such issues as Medicare, aid to education, abolition of the House Un-American Activi- ties Committee, and civil rights through fund-raising for the Student Non-violent Co- ordinating Committee. It performs the latter by active campaigning and sponsorship of speakers. In 1962 the YDCHR campaigned actively for Endicott Peabody for Governor and Wil- liam Homans, Jr., for State Representative from Cambridge, both of whom won. The Club also co-sponsored a project, financed by the State Department, whereby a dozen young political leaders from South America visited Harvard for two months to observe and participate in the election campaigns in Massachusetts. A Club dinner program fea- tured members of the Harvard faculty, in- cluding Professors Hoffmann, Key, Maass, and Cherington and Doctors Halperin, Kil- son, Gilboy, and Skidmore. The speakers for the year included Jo Grimond, M.P. and leader of the resurgent Liberal Party of Great Britain, Congressman William Fitts Ryan of New York, Senators Hubert Humphrey, Frank Church, and Stephen Young, Profes- 103 Top right: Harry Greene '63, president of the YDCHR chairs a meeting of the Club.

The YDCHR also held a program of Cap- itol Conferences in Washington, meeting Administration and Congressional Hgures. The Ciub approved a resolution fully sup- porting the President's actions in the Cuban crisis of 1962. In addition, the YDCHR l 104 won a battle in the Massachusetts Federation of Young Democrats to allow pre-primary endorsements of candidates Cprompted by the Club's endorsement of Peabody for Gov- ernor and Edward McCormack, Jr., for Sen- ator in the spring before electionsl. A group which begged to differ with the President on his Cuban actions was Tocsin, whose aims are 'fto educate ourselves, the Harvard community, and the larger commu- nity to the issues of the arms race and inter- national politicsj' and to take actions to implement these goals. During the Cuban crisis, Tocsin passed an almost unanimous anti-invasion resolution, while a meeting on t'Alternatives to War over Cuba Cat which Professors H. S. Hughes and David Cavers and Dr. Barrington Moore spokeb drew ca- pacity crowds at Lowell Lecture Hall. In February, 1962, a student demonstration backed by Tocsin drew about 7000 students from around the country and considerable publicity, to the extent of being featured on the Huntley-Brinkley Report. Tocsin also presented its views to union locals, church groups, business groups, etc., in the Boston area and publishes the quar- terly Tocsin Forum distributed free at Har- vard-Radclitfe. Dinner with faculty mem- bers were also on the agenda, as were meet- ings with outside speakers Ce.g., Rep. Wil- liam Pitts Ryanj. Members participated in the campaigns of Rep. Fitts Ryan as well as other candidates in the neighboring areas. The Harvard-Radcliffe World Federalists believe that a just and enduring world peace can only be established by disarmament within the context of enforceable world law. To this end, they believe that the United Nations must be strengthened and its mem- bership made universal, and they suggest the abrogation of the Connally reservation to U.S. acceptance of the jurisdiction of the International Court of Justice. The group held a series of Sunday evening discussion meetings and frequently heard faculty members and outside guests, includ- ing Professors Baxter and Friedrich, Louis Sohn, and Joseph Namenwerth. At public lectures, Leon Bramson and H. E. Tahib Slim spoke. In cooperation with Radcliffe College, the Dag I-Iammarskjold Memorial Lectures on problems of world order, this year featuring Mme. Agda Rossel, Swedish U.N. ambassador. The World Federalists also sponsored trade seminars and a survey of Harvard sentiment on the United Nations. Political organizations such as these help contribute to the stimulating atmosphere, supercharged with interest in world and na- tional affairs, which assures free, varied, and active political thought at Harvard. HCUA 3225 -w .1 ,' At an open meeting of the HCUA, Chairman Comelius Minihan, Alvin Sanolf and Charlie Conrod informally discuss College business with two non-member visitors. The year 1962 marked the inception of the Harvard Council for Undergraduate Affairs, the heir to a long tradition of student govern- ment at the College. Rising from the ruins of the scandal and dissension-ridden student councils of the late fifties, the HCUA in- tended to operate from a foundation which was more representative than previous coun- cils. Each House received two representa- tives, one of Whom was appointed by the House committee, and the other elected by the members of the House. The Freshman Class also elected three members. Cornelius J. Minihan was chosen as the HCUA,s first Chairman, Joseph H. Russin as Vice-Chair- man, S. Andrew Schaffer as Secretary, and Douglas B. Harding as Treasurer. Led by Minihan, the HCUA defined its role and position in the College community in terms sharply contrasting with those of former years. The era of flamboyance and political maneuvering was gone, and in its place was an approach which was industri- ous, deliberative and cautious, and in its first year relatively successful. A report of ticket distribution to athletic events under Schaf- feris direction initiated a major revision of 105 the Harvard Athletic Departmentls policy. Several recommendations of Alvin SanolT's dining hall's committee were put into effect, as were plans of service improvement for Lamont and Widener, based on polled stu- dent opinion. A number of other proposals, including parietal changes and Radcliffe in- terhouse dining, met with opposition from the Administration. In addition, the Council handled National Student Association mat- ters, and sent an eight-man delegation, headed by Ray Dolin, to the National Con- vention. By the end of its first year, the HCUA had established itself on a Hrm footing in the Harvard community. The increased interest in the Council manifested itself in a record financial contribution by the student body and in an unprecedented number of candi- dates for its posts. The Council had devel- oped into an organization which was a legiti- mate outlet of student opinion and an effec- tive liaison between the Administration and the student body. The year was clearly one of comeback for student government at Harvard. 'WW gf , Executive Editor Anthony Hiss, '63 watches as Editorial Chairman, Robert W.

CRIMSON Cambridgels Only Breakfast Table Daily covered psilocybin research, the Massachu- setts elections, University battles with the Federal government, an elephant race, and 190 days worth of major and minor local issues during the past year. Editors of the Harvard Crimson traveled from Washington to California and back to Harvard Yard in search of important and controversial news events. In the spring of 1962 the Crimson began a long and provocative series or articles ex- posing unsupervised research with psilocybin and other Nconsciousness-expandingi' drugs. Student reporters investigated charges of nonchalance and irresponsibility in drug ex- perimentation at the University and discov- ered that medical research was being con- ducted without a doctor's supervision. With the approval of University authori- ties, an investigation was launched by the Massachusetts Department of Health, and by June the University had adopted a more During the great strike, Crimson editors rushed 10,000 copies of a special edition to news-hungry New Yorkers. Pictured handing a copy of the extra to UN Am- bassador Adlai Stevenson are Cleft to right! Richard B. Ruge ,63, managing editorg Rudolf V. Ganz Jr. '63, editor of the Crimson Reviewg and Patricia W. Mc- Culloch '65. rigid policy governing drug research at Har- vard. At about the same time that the psilocybin controversy broke, Edward M. Ted Ken- nedy '54 announced his candidacy for the United States Senate, and the Crimson launched an intensive program of Massachu- setts election coverage, which lasted through November 6 and included political profiles of the candidates for all major state offices. In I une, reporters and photographers cov- ered the Democratic pre-primary convention in Springfield, and in July and August the Harvard Summer News reported the frenzied political activity throughout Massachusetts as the fall primaries approached. As George Lodge challenged Ted Kennedy for the U.S. Senate and John Volpe fought unsuccessfully against Endicott Peabody for possession of the Governor's mansion, the Crimson increased its campaign coverage to include many personal interviews with the candidates and reporting of several testimo- nial dinners and political rallies. But it was a local issue that caused the most stir in the University. The most sig- nificant editorial writing to appear in the Crimson during the year was a series of six articles late in the spring of 1962, criticizing the University Administration and particu- larly President Pusey's delay in choosing a new Dean of the Faculty to replace Mc- George Bundy. The controversial editorials received nationwide publicity, but the issue died down after a Dean was named in June. The Crimson got its year's biggest scoop with the publication of an extra issue on Commencement day announcing Dean Ford's appointment. The 'textra hit the newsstands at 4 p.m., a full edition ahead of the local and national press. Crimson editors also put out extra editions of the paper after the Dartmouth and Yale football contests and scooped the Yale Daily News by several minutes with reports on The Game. In another major athletic development, sports editor .Toe Russin led a team consist- ing of himself to the first national elephant racing championships in Fullerton, Califor- nia, during May of 1962. Photographs of Harvard's elephant, Sonita, graced the sports page for days before the event, and the Crimson won a smashing first place victory. As this book went to press, Russin was dreaming about plans for a National Ele- Raymond A.

The Crimson both reported and com- mented on University struggles with the Gov- ernment over required reports on the number of Negroes employed at Harvard and over operation of the S911 million Cambridge Elec- tron accelerator. The accelerator Contro- versy, uncovered by the newspaper late in February, turned out to be Harvard's most serious and complicated clash with Wash- ington since the University lirst decided to accept federal aid. Early in February, a new executive board took over operation of the paper, and, soon after, the Crimson began to publish six pages a day, with expanded coverage of world and national news and more feature material. The increased attention to international de- velopments was maintained even after the New York Times resumed publication in April, and the extra copy space made possi- ble greater coverage of undergraduate ac- tivity at the College. Yet, the six-page paper was introduced at the cost of the Crimson Review, a weekly supplement which Dean Monro termed Hthe Crimsorfs best innova- tion in recent years. The business board decided the paper could not afford to publish both a six-page daily and a 16-page weekly. Crimson reporter Peter R.

Classical music is the staple of the station's broadcasting, with at least one hour daily of discussion and analysis. Jazz takes over in the early evening and on Saturday night. A third area of musical programming is folk music. One of the most popular features of WHRB is its News and Sports department. Several regularly scheduled daily newscasts, drawn largely from the wires of UPI, are topped by a comprehensive news roundup at 11:30 p.m., including Harvard, local, na- tional and international news. There are three sports roundups daily, as well as play- by-play coverage of Harvard football, hockey, basketball and swimming. The biggest news from WHRB this year was the announcement by President John N. Feldtmose '63 that the station was beginning a fund-raising drive for the Sl25,000 neces- sary to construct new quarters. The Uni- versity is taking the present location in the bowels of Dudley House for the rising Holy- oke Center, and in compensation WHRB will be allowed to build over the Masters' garage on Mill Street, Since WHRB already oper- ates on an annual budget of approximately 810,000 which is barely paid for by adver- tisements, there is no surplus capital to kick oil the fund. The fund drive, directed by Susan I. First '63 has not gone much farther than preparing publicity material, Plans call for doubling the present amount of floor space and re- placing some of the equipment, including the transmitter which was purchased in 1957. In the new quarters there will be facilities allowing more experimental programs and more live broadcasting. Plans are also being formulated for a television workshop, pos- sibly in collaboration with the new Arts Center. The building program has not so absorbed the energies of the WHRB staff that their broadcasting has suffered this year. Under Station Manager Paul R. Ryack '63 con- sistently high quality has been preserved in musical, news, and sports programming. Controlman David E.

X fi -' - . .' -Li . ..- Undistracted by the new luxuries of an FM radio and a 21-inch television set, members of Harvard Yearbook Publications managed to publish still another superb product. But the Harvard Yearbook, 327, was not the only artistic and literary masterpiece which came out of the oiiices at 52 Dunster Street. The organization continued to publish Cam- bridge 38 and to compile the best selling Harvard and Radcliife Freshman Registers. These valuable books entered 10,000 eager hands at Registration. The Radcliffe Year- book received a new white-and-gold cover as well as an experimental layout and type- face. No longer was the Radcliffe book merely a reprint of the larger Harvard book, in 1963 only a third of the book was re- printed. With Leonard Ellman as president, Albert Kramer as business manager, and Chip Ganz as managing editor, the Yearbook continued to improve its product. Since the organiza- tion has a somewhat captive audience, Har- vard Yearbook feels a responsibility to move forward. New layout design, an increased number of feature articles, and a photo essay on 4'The Year were among the innovations made in an eifort to characterize 1963 as a year different from any other. Whatever the verdict on the rest of our efforts, 327 is unique in at least one way: it is undoubtedly the only yearbook in the country to have Paul Revere fsee page 63 as one of its contributors. In the midst of a routinely calm layout session, Beardsley Ruml fleftj argues with Managing Editor Chip Ganz over a picture. Leslie Short trearb and Layout Chairman Patricia McCulloch continue undisturbed. 111 HARVARD REVIEW In November a new publication appeared on Cambridge newsstands. The Harvard Review, headed by Publisher Michael H. P. Belknap i63, Michael W. Schwartz '63, Edi- tor, and J. Lee Auspitz '63, Assistant Editor, is an attempt to provide the community with information rather than with a political bias. The first issue was organized around the theme of The Atlatic Community and fea- tured articles by Paul Nitze '28, Assistant Secretary of Defense for International Se- curity Affairs, Robert Bowie, professor of International Relations, and Stanley Hoff- man, associate professor of Government. The magazine is a revival of a former publication call the Harvard Guardian which was formed in 1937 but folded during the war. Efforts are made to solicit articles from anyone connected with Harvard: undergraduate, faculty, or alumnus. The format is professional and indicates the editors' desire to distribute the magazine nationally. Sales within the Harvard area have been very encouraging this year, and advertising has been found for all four issues. CAMBRIDGE 38 Michael A. Whyte '63, creative source and editor-in-chief of Cambridge 38. Publisher Michael Belknap and Editor Michael Schwartz of the Harvard Review. Cambridge 38 put out five issues during the academic year, and planned to inaugurate a Summer School edition in July. The maga- zine which was formed six years ago to provide a creative outlet for the frustrated geniuses of the Yearbook, is distributed free of charge to every room at Harvard, Rad- cliffe, GSAS, the Law School and the Busi- ness School. While most magazines at the University are primarily vehicles for under- graduate writing, Cambridge 38 has flirted with a policy of soliciting articles from out- side the University. This policy allows them to print an article on automation by A. H. Raskin, labor editor of the New York Times, and by W. H. Ferry, Vice President of the Center for the Study of Democratic Institutions, ,on Transforming Economic Institutions. Since half the articles and photo essays were created by Harvard under- graduates, Cambridge 38 continued to be an undergraduate publication, though of near professional quality. Under Michael A. Whyte, editor-in-chief, the magazine has en- joyed the most successful year in its short history. YARDLING It is an annual mystery that the freshman class can pull itself together well enough to put out a publication, but this yearis Yard- ling is of astoundingly high quality. Imagina- tive though not totally successful layout, and humorous if not professional Writing made each issue a pleasure to read. Few pictures were used, but they were of high quality and were well reproduced. Editors-in-chief Rob- ert Lightbourne, Sanford J. Ungar, and Peter Hart Weiner should be congratulated by the Class of '66 for this year's Yardling. COMMENT In its second year of publication, Comment continued in its role as a monthly journal of informed opinionf' under editor-in-chief, Arthur D. Hellman ,63. Comment is pub- lished by the Harvard Political Participation Council, but the magazine does not restrict itself to political topics. There were special issues on popular culture on academic freedom and on nmorality and the law? Each issue carried articles about current drama and film presentations in the Harvard area and tried to provide a more complete analysis of this Held than the frantic daily Crimson. This attempt succeeded sporad- ically with articles on L'The Humphrey Bo- gart Image and on ulndecision at the Loeb . Comment is here to stay, but it remains a minor magazine sold mostly on newsstands with a very small circulation. ADVOCATE With Jaime Urrutia 763 as President, and Michael Hancher '63, as Pegasus, the Har- vard Advocate was reborn. Friends of Har- vard creative writing were worried last year that the Advocate, the oldest of Harvard publications, would succumb to the adver- tising squeeze which every publication in Harvard Square must face. But the Advocate was active enough to sponsor readings by such figures as Robert Frost, Donald Hall and Sidney Goldfarb. Plans for the spring include visits by Vladi- mir Nabokov, Norman Mailer and Yevgeny Yevtushenko sponsored by the Advocate. It would have been shameful to lose Har- vard's only outlet for creative writing. There- fore, the few issues which were published this year were welcomed-even by the Crimson. The Yardling editorial staff. 113 GARGOYLE Gne would think that the Harvard market for college humor magazines would have been satiated by the familiar Lampoon, But the Harvard-Radclilfe Gargoyle makes the claim, with some justice, that it is the only humor magazine to represent the personality of the two schools. This claim contains the implication that the Lampoon spends too much time putting out Mademoiselle paro- dies and not enough representing Harvard humor. Unfortunately, the Gargoyle has published only two issues since last April. The rest of its time has been taken up with its well- publicized, undefeated Tiddlywinks team and other various stunts. The GUTS CGar- goyle Undergraduate Tiddlywinks Societyj team has vanquished schools from coast to coast and has appeared on the television program Hllve Got a Secret? The stunts were actually quite clever, al- though not nearly so impressive as a few more issues would have been. The Gar- goyle's best stunt was to give a fake surprise hour exam to Chem 40a students, including a mimeographed exam, blue books, proctors, and impossible Cbut believablej problems. The issues themselves have had some very high quality art work and generally compe- tent stories. In terms of literary merit, the Lampoorfs parody of Ian Fleming must be conceded the success of this year. But the Gargoyle has helped to restore genuine col- lege humor, for better or worse, to Harvard. It has certainly held the publicity edge be- tween the two magazines, particularly during the Tiddlywinks season. Q . is W-srsiaif 'ith LAMPOON From the point of view of varied activity and national publicity, 1962-63 was the most successful year in the Lamp0on's long his- tory. Most of the new success came from two special projects: a second parody of Mademoiselle and a 77-page paperback spoof of mystery-novelist Ian Fleming, en- titled Alligator. The Mademoiselle parody, published as the fashion magazineis July issue and sent to its 600,000 subscribers, was a follow-up to the 'Poon's 1961 issue, which had raised Mademoiselle's newsstand sale 7096 over that of the previous July. Most of the photo- graphs for the issue were shot in New York over spring vacation. Alligator, penned, according to the jacket, by Itn Fltmtng, originally appeared as a pocket-size insert in the Lampoon's Novem- ber, 1962 Mystery Issue. The mail orders started to pour in, so the Poonies incorpora- ted a new Vanitas Booksn division and issued the parody separately. Co-authored semi-anonymously by Lampyis President Michael Frith and Ibis Christopher Cerf, Alligator related the adventures of British Secret Serviceman J tmts Bind, who must bring to justice Lacertus Alligator, an evil genius who steals the Houses of Parliament and floats them across the Atlantic to Ber- muda. Preposterous? Yes, but the parody received rave reviews from Newsweek, the Boston Herald's George Frazier, and the Washington Post, as well as the expected pan from the Crimson. Other highlights of the year were the annual Movie Worst issue and an 'LEnd of the Worlda' number with an open letter begging Nikita Khrushchev to Nponder on the frightful implications of the word 'end'. In two well-publicized ceremonies in the Castle the members of Beyond the Fringe and Peter Ustinov were awarded honorary membership. The Lampoorfs competition from the Gar- goyle spread into Cambridge City Council meetings, where Councilman Alfred Velucci introduced a Gargoyle proposal to convert the Lampoon castle into a public restroom. When this failed to pass, Velucci settled for naming the Castle's location L'Freedom Square -over Poonie protests. Plans for the spring included a parody of Esquire for the July issue of Mademoiselle, to be managed by the new President, Wood- ward Wickham ,64.

The common feature of all these organiza- tions is that their activities have expanded recently: Within Cambridge by Phillips Brooks House, as far away as Mexico by the Catholic Club, Never suffering from lack of imagination, these groups usually do need more money and members. But the Class of '66 supplied manpower in unprece- dented abundance, While vigorous fund rais- ing and some University support eased the financial burden. This year Phillips Brooks House, the Uni- versity's largest undergraduate organization, emphasized the depth into which its program could explore. Project Tanganyika almost doubled the number of its people going to 116 A member of the PBH Prisons Committee tutors convicts.

Youngsters in depressed areas will receive a unique experience under the guidance of PBH, an experience which began this year under the directorship of James M. Perrin '64. Literally hundreds of paperback books are being distributed to fourth and fifth grade school children. PBH volunteers then en- courage the children to report on the books in an informal atmosphere, thus increasing the verbal skills which are so vital to young- sters in depressed communities. PBH's oldest committee, the Social Ser- vice Committee, places volunteers either as group leaders or instructors in settlement houses or in detached social workw, which is the highly skilled practice of recruiting youngsters directly from the streets of slum areas. At the Lyman Reform School a new carte blanche from state' and school officials enabled the volunteers to perform much more effectively than before. In the same atmosphere, the Prisons Com- mittee jumped to 70 volunteers, working in every one of the state's institutions. As part of the drive to allow the men more access to the outside world, PBH sponsored basket- ball games with House teams and concerts by the Glee Club and Orchestra. The vol- unteers themselves taught academic subjects, dramatics, or recreation in a successful at- tempt to give the inmates self-respect and self-confidence. College Volunteers in a Mental Hospital was the title of a book published this year about the Mental Hospital Committee. Its statistical abstracts provided experts with a particularly vivid resume of PBH effective- ness. In the hospitals served by PBH, where the doctor-patient ratio is 1:900, the volun- teers Who visit and talk to the patients are invaluable. In late December, Robert Ken- nedy summoned Terry Murphy, former chairman of the Committee, to Washington, where he conferred with the President's fact- Hnding committee on the Domestic Peace Corps. With more than 200 volunteers tutoring youngsters and high-school students who cannot afford regular tutors, the Tutors, Committee was the largest in PBH. The Committee also began a program of working with remedial students, and started a mass program in Roxbury to raise the level of education in its slum area. Another teaching program is the Harvard Undergraduate Teachers, which placed more than 35 volunteers in regular teaching jobs in shorthanded public schools. Under Charles Hanson and John Limbert, the program actively tried to sell the idea to other colleges in order to strengthen weak school systems in other areas. Now in its third year, Project Tanganyika will send twenty students to Africa to work in refugee schools, secondary schools and community centers. About twelve of these men will remain there for a full year. The members of the project, who were selected from 75 applicants, started with no money and had to raise the necessary S45 ,000 them- selves. Last year, project members taught in the first refugee school in Tanganyika's history. They were requested to return this year by several government officials, a Peace QQ X.

CRIMSON KEY The Crimson Key Society continued to ex- pand its services to both the Administration and the undergraduates, despite protests from many overburdened Keymen. Limited to forty members, the Key performs its nec- essary functions behind the undergraduate scene and is known only through its vacation and Wellesley ride services. Greater efti- ciency in matching cars and riders headed for all parts of the country was achieved through the construction of a large United States map which made it easier to plot out all the combinations. In its role as oflicial University host, the Key greeted over 900 curious freshman ap- plicants and visitors ranging from the Polish Ambassador to the Lehigh football team. During the hectic first week of school, the Key ran tours of University facilities for the freshmen, ushered them ,through the Presi- dent's tea, and presented them to the 'Cliffe freshmen at the Memorial Hall mixer. A semester later, when the new class had be- come entrenched in the Yard, Keymen led 'them out to familiarize them with the new world of the Houses. Keeping up with the expanding University is becoming a serious challenge to the Key, requiring a constant revision and enlarge- ment of information available to the mem- bers. In addition to its regular comprehen- sive tours, the Key began to offer special tours of new facilities, particularly Holyoke Center and the Visual Arts Center.

H I4 11' 2Z'.'I1LDif' .l.'f RELIGIO The most specifically religious organization at Harvard is the Harvard Christian Fellow- ship, whose aim is to present the claims of Jesus Christ to the University, in a manner comprehensible to itg to encourage a fellow- ship of Christians on campus, to participate in Christian missions, local and interna- tional. With this modest platform, the group was led by President H. Gerard Knoche in daily prayer meetings, Bible study groups, and mixers with Radcliffe. Weekly open-forum discussion groups were led by experts in various fields of religious studies. The Harvard-Radcliffe Hillel Society was led by David Goodblatt and Janet Shillman. The Society is the center of Jewish student activity at the University. The Hillel Insti- tute of Jewish Studies offered classes in bib- lical and modern Hebrew, Yiddish, folk dancing, and religious ideology. Hungry stu- dents from both Harvard and Radcliffe at- tended the Sunday morning bagel and lox brunches. The magazine Mosaic was widely praised, even by the Crimson, and its exist- ence has become a fresh way of expression for Hillel members. The Harvard-Radcliffe Catholic Club seeks to provide as diverse and interesting a program of activities as possible to meet the needs of the more than one thousand Cath- olics at the University. Throughout the academic year regular series of lectures are offered at the Catholic Student Center lo- cated at 20 Arrow Street. Among this year's speakers were Dean Jose Luis Sert speaking on Modern Church Architectureji Msgr. Russell J. Collins on 4'The Religious Impli- 120 cations of Existentialismj, Rabbi Ben-Zion Gold on Hasidism', and G. Ernest Wright on 'tArchaeology and Christian Faithf' One of the most successful events pre- sented this year was a series of six concerts performed in St. Paul's Church open to the entire Harvard community. Among the collegiate groups and professional musicians who performed were the Harvard University Choir, the Cornell and Newton College Glee Clubs performing jointly, the Renaissance Choir and the Marsh Chapel Organist at Boston University, Mr. Max Miller. The Club also sent a group of sixteen students from Harvard and Radcliffe to Mexico where they engaged in social work and constructed a medical dispensary in the pueblo of Copilco-el-Alto. A second group of Harvard and Radcliffe students will return to Mexico to continue the work already begun. The quarterly publication of the Catholic Club, the Current, established itself as a student publication of high quality under this year's editor, Joseph Sendry. Finally, the Club continued to sponsor such traditional activities as the annual Com- munion Breakfast, the Senior Reception, a weekend retreat, the annual Newman Lecture at which Bishop John Wright of Pittsburgh spoke, a daily evening Mass and the House discussion groups. The President of the Club for the past year has been Daniel H. O,Leary. The Chaplains are the Rev. Joseph I. Collins and the Rev. Thomas W. Buckley '49, Douglas Harding '63, President of HSA. Need money, but can't find time to work?-Join HSA. HARVARD STUDENT AGENCIES Harvard Student Agencies, Inc. is unique in the realm of undergraduate activity. Estab- lished in 1957 by a group of students, Faculty members and alumni, HSA is a non-proht corporation whose purpose is to provide capital, facilities and organization to help needy students earn money to meet their college expenses. In its primary role as a source of earning opportunity for needy students, the corporation has provided under- graduates with more than S360,000 in income during the five-year period since its formation. Since the bulk of the HSA managerial and job responsibilities are designed to provide students with highly flexible work schedules, it is generally possible for an undergraduate to carry on major extracurricular or athletic programs in addition to full academic sched- ules, while meeting a portion of their financial needs through HSA employment. Doug Walter '63, Harry Howell '63, and Doug Harding '63 have made typical use of HSA as a profitable complement to other activities. Walter, co-manager of the Beer Mug and Banner Agency, was a member of the squash team, and Howell played for the hockey team while managing the Newspaper Agency. Doug Harding, the current president of HSA, is treasurer of the HCUA and a member of the Crimson Key, in addition to his re- sponsibilities as chief executive of a corpora- tion containing 32 separate small businesses, with 66 managers and assistant managers, 250 additional workers, and several thousand customers. One cannot overlook the educational op- portunity of managing a business which realized sales of S915,000 and paid wages of S100,000 during fiscal year 1962. But opportunity is coupled with risk. Students are exceedingly imaginative in finding new ways to make money, but their inexperience occasionally leads them to bypass ethical red-tape. HSA must supervise agency man- agers more closely than would a professional enterprise. There is no doubt that HSA is big business. The Charter Flight Agency, managed by Brad Howe '63, is a half-million dollar business which each year provides more than 1700 members of the Harvard community with low cost air travel to Europe and to many parts of the United States. George Mulligan '63, manager of the Stadium Con- cessions at the football games, has the job of organizing 50 to 150 workers each Saturday into a service group to meet the food and drink demands of 12,000 to 40,000 fans. Even for the independent and creative thinker the HSA has something to offer. Typical of the entrepreneurial spirit of stu- dents attracted to the HSA is Richard Black ,63. After his soft ice cream agency folded, he established a Catering Agency to provide trained bartenders, equipment and hors daoeuvres for private parties. As useful as the HSA may be for the student who needs to earn money during term time, it is not surprising that other undergraduate activities view with alarm a million-dollar enterprise constantly seeking new ways to draw money out of the Harvard community. The basic conflict is between the professional student business and the amateur extra-curricular organization. The HSA appears as the natural enemy of all undergraduate organizations dependent on volunteer manpower, for it adds monetary rewards to the incentives a non-profit insti- tution can offer. The profit ethic threatens volunteer activities in two ways. Most obviously, HSA is a more natural outlet for students interested primarily in business ex- perience. As such it competes for man- power directly with undergraduate publica- tions, dramatic productions, all activities needing to raise money to keep their heads above water. This competition for business personnel is a one-way drain on the volunteer organizations. Why should a student inter- ested in business training work for the in- tangibles of experience and prestige alone when he could get these and cash on the line as well by managing an HSA agency? And the future capitalist feels more comfortable working for an organization where everyone is interested primarily in increasing profits than for a fioundering publication, where production people are constantly trying to squeeze more money out of the business manager, where each month brings the question of whether there is enough money in the till to bring out another issue. The second problem posed by HSA is its rapid expansion and inadequate supervision. Speaking about the new student entertain- ment agency, which was attacked by many student entertainers as an unjustified en- croachment, Dustin Burke, Director of HSA and Director of Student Employment for Harvard, said, Clearly the intent of the agency would be to encourage students to develop or utilize talents where there is a current shortage of performers or into areas where promotion and service promise greatly increased business. The current interpreta- tion of the statement that HSA employs students on the basis of need seems to be that the criterion for employment is a need on the part of HSA. Very few undergraduate activities are economically efficient. A student newspaper does not exist to make a large profit for its owner, its purpose is simply to report and comment on the news, and to provide an outlet for the writing of its members. A dramatic production is interested in present- ing a good play and breaking even with enough left over for a good cast party, not in building up the House treasury. HSA has shown itself willing to expand into any field which offers attractive profit possibilities, and it constantly threatens to encroach on volun- teer activities already in financial ditiiculty. Bradlee Howe ,63, head of Charter Flight Agency, and Robert McCoy '62, general employee, look over the Europe by Car brochure. The Calendar has proved HSA,s success with advertising sales, it has proved that a notice column spiced with bits of poorly written editorial copy can make money. But advertising for the HSA notice column is solicited in direct, often devastating, com- petition with the small undergraduate maga- zines like Comment and the Advocate. Last spring the Crimson Review suspended pub- lication, largely because of an advertising squeeze. The Calendafs publication of notices is undoubtedly important, but it should hardly be iinanced by a source of funds already overtaxed by a plethora of small publications. A University subsidy seems to be the only solution. If the publi- cation of notices is as important a service to the University as is claimed, the University should be willing to foot part of the bill. HSA has undoubtedly provided needy students with more jobs, with higher hourly wages and more flexible working hours than were possible before its institution. But the Agencies have expanded far beyond the simple idea of an employment service. There are some areas of undergraduate activity which should not be governed by a profit motive, and HSA should not be allowed to expand indiscriminately into them. HSA urgently needs a strict and impartial board of review-and a board such as the 123 David B. Crane '64, professor of bartending for HSA Catering Agency. present one, largely composed of HSA stu- dent managers, the inevitable Dustin Burke, and Dean Monro Cone of its earliest backersj, is hardly prone to be either im- partial or strict. Slowing or controlling the Agencies' expansion is consequently ex- tremely dihicult, especially since Mr. Burke has secured a voice in every relevant Faculty committee. In addition to his titles as Director of HSA and Director of the Harvard Student Employment Ohice, he also holds the seat of Secretary of the Committee on Solicitation, the committee responsible for the creation of monopolies to serve the Yard and the Houses. The central issue between HSA and the undergraduate community is simply that more students are earning more money, at least in specific instances, than can be justi- fied solely by need. While HSA is incorpora- ted as a tax-free, charitable institution, it would seem that charity has taken on a new meaning on Holyoke Street. HSA employs students to satisfy the Agencies' needs as a miniature business empire, not simply to help undergraduates pay their college expenses. Mr. Burke really should hang up some of his many hats. And the University must devise a stronger, more effective board of review than the HCUA or the HSA managers and director. The Harvard combined ROTC squads march in the annual fall review. Graduating seniors in Army ROTC pose disconsolately with their cannon. ROT Before the date of his graduation, every Harvard man's thoughts must turn to military service. A growing number of students are choosing to begin their military careers in the freshman year by participating in one of the three Reserve Officer Training Pro- grams available at the University. The purpose of each program is to prepare a student for military service without imposing on his academic career. The training pro- grams have a genuinely difficult task. They must in a few hours per week provide mem- bers with leadership ability and technical skill comparable to that of the graduates of West Point, Annapolis and the Air Force Academy. At the same time, the program must maintain a perspective that enables its members to contribute actively to the larger Harvard community. Army ROTC combines four years of class- room work and drill sessions with a six weeks summer camp between the junior and senior years. Harvard AROTC graduates receive 124 An Air Force ROTC student outlines his reasons for enlisting. commissions in all branches and services of the Army. The present AROTC Battalion is composed of four companies and a Battalion Staff, whose supervision and training is the responsibility of the Department of Military Science's Regular Army Personnel under Lt. Col. George Garnhart. The social outlet of the AROTC is the Caisson Club, which sponsors beer blasts, cocktail parties, and the Joint Military Ball. The Battalion also pub- lishes a newspaper, the Shcmnonigans, which contains information of general interest to cadets. The activities within the Navy unit are equally varied. The midshipmen publish their own bi-weekly newspaper, have a drill team which consistently outscores its op- ponents, and a rifle team which is attracting increasing numbers now that the Harvard rifle range is completed. The radio club claims a devoted, if not large membership, while the Taffrail Club handles the social activities. After graduation and commission, the midshipmen will be spread from Japan to Hawaii. Some will fly jets, others will enter submarine school. A large number will be stationed at Newport with periodic jaunts to the Mediterranean. The Air Force unit follows the same pattern as the other two services. But more effort was made this year to acquaint the cadets with active duty life. Field trips have visited Mitre, Spacetrack, and Sage facilities of Hanscom, Boware and Air Defense oper- ations of Otis Air Force Base. One of the highlights of the year was the visit to Patrick Air Force Base and the NASA facilities at Cape Canaveral. Cadets also found chances to take orientation flights in C-47,s, RC- 121's, and T-33's. In February, all three services sponsored the annual Military Ball. It provided an evening of dining and dancing in the Air Force Officers Club at Hanscom Field. Perhaps the rest of Harvard is inclined to snicker at the neatly pressed uniforms which appear every Monday morning. But as these same uniformed men leave Harvard with their commissions, the snickers become very quiet. NROTC seniors Chip Angle and Dan Efroymson operate a Sn gun safely located in the basement of Shannon Hall. ACADEMIC CLUBS Academic clubs defy easy classification and enumeration. Under the heading are listed dissimilar organizations, often appealing to small groups of enthusiasts rather than to the whole college community. Some are obscure, others have larger memberships or more public programs that make them more familiar. In its second year of existence, the Har- vard Esperanto Club carried on a program to ffteach the International Language, aid those who have learned it in using it, and employ the language in promoting communi- cation between Americans and foreignersf' This program included classes for beginners and more advanced students, a weekly Esperanto Table at Harvard or Radcliffe, and a tape exchange with similar groups abroad. The club, headed by Stanley Cohen, Joseph Knowles, Jonathan Pool, and Humphrey Tonkin, also published a correspondence course and a self-instruction kit. Special events included Esperanto movies and guests from abroad. The Harvard-Radcliffe Association of Business and Economics Students CAIESECJ continued its program of 'fjob exchangesl' between Boston-area firms and foreign companies. Under president I on Ekdahl, the club, a branch of an international organiza- tion, had the functions of soliciting job opportunities in the area, and of securing qualified applicants for positions abroad. The Verein Turmwaechter, the German- language club at Harvard, provided its mem- bers with uWein, Weib, und Gesangi' through its extensive social activities, weekly tables at Harvard or Radcliffe provided oppor- tunities for more serious examinations of German culture. In the fall, the club spon- sored a showing of von Sternberg's film Der blaue Engel, starring Marlene Dietrich and Emil Iannings. The Harvard Student Zionist Organization, a group interested in providing an atmos- phere for a beter understanding of the people and the State of Israel, sponsored lecture and discussion groups as well as frequent social activities featuring Israeli singing and dancing. Supplementing the very limited course offerings in Latin American studies was one of the purposes of the Harvard Latin Ameri- can Association, which in its second year of organization sponsored lectures and re- ceptions for Latin American notables, and The Harvard Latin American Association meets for one of its periodic discussion groups. A discussions of hemispheric problems. Its approach stressed the contemporary political, economic, and social situation in Latin America. The Harvard Natural History Society, under president Eliot Stanley, sponsored a series of lectures and field trips for students interested in natural history and the life sciences. Most publicized of its activities was a lecture by Kirtley Mather, professor of Geology, emeritus, on The Scopes Trial of 1925 , Professor Mather was a participant in the famous trial along with Clarence Dar- row and William Jennings Bryan. Combining the functions of club and service organization for physics students, the Harvard Student Section of the American Institute of Physics not only provided a series of lectures on physics and related fields, but enabled its members to use the services of the A.I.P., a national professional organ- ization. Members of the Student Section attended national meetings, and were given special brienngs on the backgrounds of some papers presented at the meetings. One of the largest of the academic clubs was the Harvard Pre-Law Society. President Stephen Marcus provided a program de- signed to inform Harvard undergraduates about preparation for law school, law schools themselves, and legal practice. Club mem- bers met with the deans of major law schools during the fall, and during the spring visited the Harvard Law School, attended moot trials, and participated in other activities concerned with the law school in action and the profession in action. The Society also published a monthly bulletin. The Harvard-Radcliffe World Cultural Society, under president Uchenna Nwosu, engaged in diverse activities to promote cultural exchange between Harvard and the outside world. A VIP program brought visiting foreign dignitaries to talk with mem- bers over sherryg the club raised funds to assist two or more foreign students to attend Harvard or Radcliffe, and folk singing, picnics, and nationality dances provided international entertainment for the college community. A concert by Miriam Makeba was planned for the Spring. The convictions of the Harvard Human- ists led the club, in its second year of organization, into many fields. Members generally agree that traditional religions embody unsound philosophical tenets, en- A Harvard Debate Council member hammers out a point.

They decry the stulti- fication of the human mind. This fall the Humanists sponsored Dr. Timothy Leary in his speech announcing the formation of the International Foundation for Internal Freedom, an announcement that touched off a lively debate in the Cambridge area on the use of drugs for consciousness expansion. The Humanists, in attempting 'sto break down barriers of communication erected by religion , sponsored discussions on issues of moral controversy, organized philosophy club meetings for high schools, and worked on a report on Massachusetts' Mblue lawsw. President Arthur Stillman's group also heard speakers including Radcliffe President Mary Bunting and Professor B. F. Skinner. Although diversity seems to be the key- note among these clubs, they have an in- tensive rather than extensive influence on Harvard education. They provide enthus- iasts, both students and faculty members, with opportunities to satisfy and enlarge their interests. D 128 A weekly toumament sponsored by the Chess Club. HOBBIES Other Harvard activities fall into an area which might be loosely termed hobbies. These organizations have a fly-by-night character, and the interest in any one club may vary radically from year to year. Even the eminently efficient Miss Douglas at Dean Watson's office is somewhat staggered by the number and variety of these clubs, and keeping track of them is a full-time task. One of the most easily visible of the clubs is the Harvard Motor Sports Club, whose members zip around Cambridge in bright little cars. These sports cars enthusiasts gather regularly at Orange Airport for autocrosses. The Club also shows Elms at its monthly meetings, which were chaired this year by President Stuart G. Gauld ,65. The Harvard Wireless Club maintains the short wave station WIAF for the use of radio uhamsn at Harvard. Each fall, code classes are held in which the new member can learn Morse Code and something about the oper- ation of the station. The Club boasts posses- sion of the oldest amateur radio club station in the world, a claim which is disputed Cby two weeksj by the MIT station. Neverthe- less, under President George Levi the Club has been quite active. It hopes to finance some improvements in equipment with a spring concert, This year's station manager was Jim Birch '63, 129 WIAF enthusiasts check their tubes. The station operates from 52 Dunster Street. was HAHHL The healthy faces of the Outing Club's recruiters entice the feeble freshmen. The Outing Club also operates indoors. Here is a cheery scene from a square dance. The Harvard Radcliffe Returnees of the American Field Service is a strange sort of organization which seems to meet in a per- manent reunion to relive its members, ex- periences in foreign countries. Actually, the group's more specific purpose is to provide information about AFS, particularly to local high school groups. President Theodore von Briesen ,65 states in his report that the AFS is facing the challenge of its New Frontieri' because of the rapid growth of the program. It is to help cope with this expansion that the Returnees remain active. The Harvard Undergraduate Bridge Club, headed by Richard Fleischman ,63 as presi- dent, and Alan Gleit 365, as director, pro- vided weekly duplicate bridge tournaments which were used mainly by Harvard students. This year the Harvard group founded the Northeastern College Bridge League, in which Harvard entered an eight-man team. The Harvard Chess Club provides an opportunity for all interested members of the University to play chess on an organized basis throughout the year. The Club enters teams in all the regional tournaments in- cluding the Intercollegiate Team Champion- ships. This yearis president was Ben A. Batson 363. One of the most active undergraduate organizations is the Harvard Mountaineering Club, whose president is Edward C. Carman, Jr. '63, Hardly a weekend goes by that 'Ca1'man's old black hearse doesnit pull out of the rear of Dunster House loaded down with members and strange-looking climbing equip- ment. This fall, the Club completed work on its cabin in New Hampshire which they have been building for over a year in week- end work parties. Every other year the Club runs a summer climbing camp to relatively remote areas in Canada. On these trips the Clubis greatest asset is its large and experi- enced graduate membership, which provides moral as well as financial support. There are three major functions of Ivy Films Research, Inc., whose president is Dexter Kelly ,63. The first is to provide the opportunity and some of the equipment so that members can make their own experi- mental films. The second and most familiar activity is to manage the Ivy Film Series, which sponsors films which are considered artistically worthwhile, but are not likely to hit any of the Boston theatres. Finally, the group writes the controversial capsule re- views which appear weekly in the HSA calendar. Left: A Harvard Mountaineer scales a precipice on one of the Club's weekly climbs.

Li ,W 4 ADAMS HOUSE If you want to know how it was you must go out early. Five oiclock on a May morning, cats and crickets your company, walk down Bow Streetpast Westmorley's iron nligree work, past Randolph's gables catching the first sun. Blot out the parking meters, blot out Cahaley's. Pass Franklin D. Roosevelt's old room as you round the corner and go back nfty years to the great days of the Gold Coast-a simpler Harvard, sure of good things and better at pursuing them. Then cross dark Plympton Street and turn your steps to the tiny Randolph courtyard. Shuflle through the dew and look up, there is Ap- thorp House and you are back two centuries, to a Harvard almost beyond imagination. Now 325 latter-day Hawardians and the Universityls only poltergeist inhabit this mis- cellany of buildings. Breakfast is no longer available in bed from 7:00 to 11:00, and if you put your shoes beside the door they will go out with the trash. General Burgoyne's ghost descends the attic's stairs infrequently. But traditions persist, and Adams knows its heritage from the Harvards of the past. Ap- thorp House, variously a Tory rectory, a place of incarceration for Gentleman Iohnnyj, the location of a small but eiiicient brewery during Prohibition, a center of Uni- tarian piety in the nineteenth century and of collegiate hell-raising in the early twentieth, and today the residence of the Master of Adams House, exemplifies the Adams tradi- tion of individualism, history and good living. From this seat a distinguished scholar and teacher, Master Reuben A. Brower, manages the community existence of 325 determined individuals. His influence is pervasive though his activity is often unseen, he and Senior Tutor Andrew G. Jameson share a respect for the privilege, deeply treasured by the Adams man, of being left alone by the Ad- ministration. But any explanation of how Adams keeps from year to year its unique character of individualism tempered by good 135 taste begins at Apthorp House. Here at Fri- day tea, gentlemen learn to be scholars, and scholars gentlemen, and the great amor- phous mass of Harvard students learns to be a little of both. Scarcely had Professor Zeph Stewart, once Adams's Senior Tutor and its acting Master during Mr. Brower's leave of absence in 1961-2, turned back the keys when he was appointed the new Master of Lowell House. He and Masters Conway and Bullitt justify Professor Demos, appellation of Adams as Hmother of Masters. The departure of Pro- fessor Stewart was soon followed by the ad- ditional loss of Robert Frost, an Associate since 1939, who had delighted a whole gen- eration of Adams men by his reading and epigrammatic bits of advice. Mother of poets as well as of Masters, Adams has had a long and honorable poetic tradition sustained in the past by such men as Robert Hillyer and Richard Wilbur, and now carried on by Junior Fellow Arthur Freeman and by the Oak Leaf, which published more poetry this year than the Advocate. In more and less organized ways Adams kept up its reputation for creative excellence. The Music Society, which has been one of the local exponents of new music for sev- eral years, was stimulated by the presence of avant-garde composer Pierre Boulez to pre- sent a concert of tape recorders. Under Bent- ley Laytonfs baton the Madrigal and Cham- ber groups presented the tenor chorale from Bach's Cantata No. 140 at the Christmas party. Meeting upon the site of what was once the most elegant tiled men's room in Cam- bridge perhaps induced the Drama Society to ruminate upon past triumphs at the ex- pense of future glories. But here organized Hurry is not a reliable index to the level of dramatic interest, which remained high. Several fine actors and directors in the House chose to occupy themselves at the Loeb Drama Center and elsewhere. The Society did produce the Christmas play, a parody written by Steve Lynton, and the traditional formal reading of a selection from Winnie- the-Pooh. It pushed back at least one more artistic frontier-for better or Worse nobody knew-in the surrealist movie HThe Ape's Tragedy made in cooperation with Ivy Fihns. In a rambling L-shaped studio, Boston artist Morton Sacks gave instruction twice Weekly to some twenty House members who informally constituted the Art group. As a setting for the talk given at Adams by the Mexican ambassador to the United States, a selection of modern Mexican paintings hung in the Lower Common Room alongside some primitives from the personal collection of Art Chairman Dan del Solar to illustrate the con- tinuity of Mexican art. In the spring they arranged another show in conjunction with the Photographic Society's annual contest, which occupied the Common Room for sev- eral days. From the heart of darkest Westmorley came Cambridgels most exotic periodical, the Adams House Oak Leaf. Editor John Weber, abandoning the vegetable newsiness of past years, concocted a gumbo for the eclectic palate: poetry by present and form- er House members, book reviews, articles and even a red-hot exchange of letters to the editor. The Adams House Journal of the Social Sciences, which last year received sober praise from the Nation magazine as one of the outstanding undergraduate pub- lications in the country, appeared in a new professional offset-printed format. Shortly after the Nation article the World Congress on Peace and Disarmament in Moscow in- vited the Journal to send a delegate. George Hart was dispatched to Moscow and pub- lished his pungent remarks in the Winter issue. The Journal thus became the only Cambridge publication with a uforeign cor- respondentw on its masthead. Editors Irving Naiburg and Greg Sandow turned their at- tention particularly to foreign affairs and made the Journal appeal to a wider range of readers without forgetting its original pur- pose of publishing the best available under- graduate writing. In athletics Adams upholds the spirit of the Ivy League, where losing seasons are thought to signify virtue. In 1961 the House climbed to a stratospheric third place in the Straus trophy standings, but the halcyon days of the artsy-jocksy set soon ended, and this year saw a return to the cool, comfortable depths. The football team finished third and beat Yale, which was glorious, but save for a few bright lights like boxing champion Rick Rice and a volcanic volleyball team the rest of the results belitted the House closest to Lamont and farthest from the stadium. Adams, it might be pointed out, has live times as many Senior Phi Beta Kappas as major H winners. The bitterest competition on Bow Street, except pinball at Tommy's Arcade, was around the pool table where Jim Murphy retained his perennial suprem- acy before a packed gallery. Students bent on indulging the body climbed to the solar- ium, the more gymnastically inclined betook themselves to the squash courts or to the swimming pool in Westmorley where, accord- ing to legend, the shapely form of Ziegfield Follies star Ann Pennington once cavorted. Another Pennington made a splash at Adams House this year: wrapped in a black opera cape and attended by half a dozen probationers, Frederick A. Pennington swept in to show truth to the ignorant. The few students who could follow his torturous logic and beat down the verbiage that en- circled The Literary Verbal Construct and the Meaning of Meaning found a remark- able achievement in epistemological thought, but in January Mr. Pennington departed for greener pastures. In 1934 one Philbrick, an Adams man, secretly boarded a German cruiser in the harbor and dumped a bunch of anti-Nazi leaflets into a ventilator, hoping to convert the engine room crew. He succeeded only in clogging the Ventilating system and get- ting himself arrested. Since this time there has been no noticeable political activity at Adams House. John Reed, framed on the Library stairs, might look upon this apa- thetic generation with dismay but again he might remember that distaste for partisan aiiiliation has always gone along with Adams, tolerance of eccentricities. A certain hidden ideological spirit bubbled to the surface this year in a debate over Common Room maga- zines carried on in the Library's suggestion book, but this soon degenerated into an ad hominem free-for-all. Its epitaph Better link than pinkw pretty well expresses the local feelings toward politics. East Apthorp would have approved all this. Burgoynels ghost, rattling about Ap- thorp House in search of the last two thou- sand bottles of home brew Cwhich are sup- posed to have disappeared into the Master's cellars in 19313 or slipping through the Din- ing Hall under John Singleton Copleyls jovial Hanoverians, finds Adams House his own cup of tea. An old Gold Coaster, clamber- ing bleary-eyed from a carriage, his return from a night of terpsichorean toil belated fifty years by some trick of the Boston streets, would still find a welcome.

Speculation about the future of Dudley House, especially the familiar stomping ground at 16 Dunster Street, has been a favorite topic at Presidentls Dinners for the past four years. This year the Administra- tion has revealed plans to move the House into Lehman Hall following the demolition of the present building on Dunster Street in 1964. The library, perhaps the most useful and up-to-date of all the House libraries, as Well as the House offices, will remain at their present location in Apley Court. In any case 'tthereill always be a Dudleyj, for al- ternatives must be presented to those who cannot afford or do not Wish to reside in the other Houses. Dudley provides low cost housing without board as Well as a con- venient dining hall and activities center for those who commute from home or from rooms off campus. Seniors graduating this year will realize the large debt owed to Delmar Leighton, Master of Dudley, in forging the House into a unit offering the same opportunities for intellectual and social activities as the larger resident Houses. Master Leighton, who is retiring this year after serving as Dean of the College as well as House Master, has been instrumental in alerting the Adminis- tration to the special needs of commuting students. The success of the House is also due in large part to Senior Tutor J. Carrell Morris. Thanks to a hard-working and ingenious social committee, Dudley's legendary social season is one of the most satisfying in the college. The annual fall mixer attracted a superabundance of girls from every woman's college within traveling distance-in spite of a drenching rainfall-and another mixer was held in the spring. Equally festive have been the post-game cocktail parties and dances during the football season. The an- nual Dudley Christmas party for under- privileged children, featuring an unidenti- fied Santa Claus, was as successful as ever. At this and at many of the other affairs Ed Lemon provided music at the vintage House piano. One of the most attractive features of Dudley House is that its members know how to enjoy themselves on an am- bitious scale. On the athletic scene, a fierce House spirit and many outstanding athletes failed to move the House up from its usual low Strauss trophy standing. Not only is Dudley House smaller than the other houses, but a majority of its members must commute from home or hold term-time jobs, which diminishes the time available for practice. Nevertheless, Dudley shows no sign of relinquishing its traditional hold on the boxing title. Dudleyis extensive schedule of Colloquia and Faculty dinners is exceptionally valu- able this year and is wide-ranging enough to satisfy any interest. These pleasantly in- formal affairs are usually held in the Senior Common Room or, when numbers require it, in the large dining hall. The Colloquium in Religion, Science, and English Literature which was begun last year has been contin- ued this fall under admirable staff leadership. Paul Kidd, an Associate Nieman Fellow, dis- cussed his experiences in Cuba and other Latin American countries on December 3rd, and earlier in the year John Muelke, '65, spoke on his summer in Africa as a member of Project T anganyika. The Honorable Ed- ward J. McCormack Jr., former Attorney- General of Massachusetts, was a guest at a well-attended dinner at which he spoke on Politics as a Way of Life. The first of the year's series of Concentration Dinners, that in the Social Sciences, was held November 19. The guests were Professor Benjamin T. Schwartz and Mr. Philip S. Gillette who dis- cussed Communism Since World War II. The Overseers' Breakfast of November 26, at which the Honorary Associates of Dudley House, Mr. Albert L. Nickerson 133 and Mr. Augustin H. Parker J r., '31 were guests, was memorable for fine conversation and a hearty catered breakfast. The once renowned Dudley Drama So- ciety, which had been moribund for three years, came to life last spring with a greatly successful production of Yeats' The King of the Great Clock Tower and a one-act play by David Cole. This frequent Dudley ven- ture into the theatre drew uniformly en- thusiastic reviews, and it will be followed this spring by Softly, Like a Flower. In other activities, the Dudley Reporter, a peri- odic review of House activities and coming events has served admirably in its function of tying together the scattered members of the House. The Reporter also accepts orig- inal creative work, and thus provides an out- let for the literary ambitions of the House members. In addition to providing resident facilities in Apley Court and Wigglesworth Hall, Dud- ley runs the cooperative houses at 1705 Massachusetts Avenue and 3 Sacramento Street. This unique way of living was started several years ago, with an air of hopeful scepticism, to provide a less expensive al- ternative to residence in the Houses. Both houses have been entirely repainted, and dur- ing the summer a completely new kitchen was installed. During the spring term an addition was made to the dining hall and recently a small House library was started which relieves some of the necessity of mak- ing the long walk to Lamont. Under the initiative of House members the co-ops have become more than just a place to live and more of an independently func- tioning unit. Many members of the Faculty have been guests for dinner and sherry, among them Professor David Riesman whose visit has become an annual tradition. Mayor Crane of Cambridge and city councillor Al- bert Vellucci were guests who provided in- teresting conversation as well as increased town-gown contacts. In this year, which is undoubtedly the most significant for Dudley House, the members have not slackened their loyalty to the House. It now remains for the new Master, Thomas Crooks, the former head of the Summer School, and for the future residents of Dud- ley to justify their new quarters and their new respect from the rest of the College. lg. Senior Tutor John Morris Summer School Director Thomas E. Crooks fleftj will take over as Dudley Master in the fall. 1 ,,,.,, ,,,, ,, 141 5 DUNSTER HOUSE 1 jg, Pwn- . ,:I:-. A-1 Q . I ' ' ' i.

I didnlt think I'd been drink- ing the night before, but I couldn't remem- ber. I looked to my right, into a blank wall. I looked to my left, into another blank wall- seemingly only inches away. I looked into the tangled mess of the bunk above me. The furniture in the room was all brown and the refrigerator gurgled away at the foot of the bed-it wouldn't fit anywhere else. That was some consolation. I knew I was still in Dunster House. I then looked up into the eyes of someone who was definitely not my roommate: Who are you? I asked. f'You'll be all right, he answered. I thanked him for his confidence, rolled over, looked out the window, and almost passed out again: there was this huge mass of concrete and glass with brown curtains and chunks of steel on the top glaring down at me. I jumped out of bed, hit my head on the bunk, swore, and asked the guy what was the big idea. He looked at me patiently, and calmly told me the story of how an earthquake had sealed off Squash Court Eight three years before and that it wasn't until just then that those of us who had been inside had been dis- covered and brought out. I told him I didn't believe him, but had to admit that I was a bit hungry, so I got dressed and we went down to the dining hall. He was right. It was 1963. I didn't recog- nize anyone except Tom McCarthy and Chester Rogers. They were the only link with the past. After eating fthe food was good, only they ran out of pie, and the salad dressing tasted vaguely familiarj I started walking around getting to know some of the new people. The biggest shock was the Master and the Senior Tutor: the Master, a fellow called Pap, played squash, the viola, and talked about biology. The Senior Tutor, called Carey, played soccer, the violin, and talked about Samuel Johnson. Good grief. I later found out that Pap rides a bicycle to classes and Carey brews beer. Definitely not the Dunster I had known. I went on to meet some more people. I met a fellow named Dave Othmer who was sort of quiet, except when he laughed, and who was Chairman of the Dunster House Committee-in his quiet sort of way he al- most bankrupted the House buying new stuff like TV sets and grills, and paying expenses for occasional visiting lecturers. He also caused a hell of a fuss over letting girls eat in the dining hall, but more of that later. I then met this fellow with a beard fno one in Dunster used to wear beardsj who said his name was Lance Morrow. Wouldn't I like to stay up all the next night and help him staple together something he called the Dumter Drama Review? It seems he and several of his friends got tired of reading the Crimson reviews and so they started up this magazine of their own. I said that perhaps I might occasionally help him out, but that this was not the night. I was about ready to go into the Common Room when some big tall guy came along bouncing a soccer ball on his head. He had three signs in his hand. One read g'Please return all baseball equipment from last springf' Another said soccer, football and cross country all have contests today. Be on time. The third said, 'fSwimming starts in only four months, better get in shape. Intra- mural athletics must have been reawakened at Dunster. When I asked what his name was, I was told that that was Roger f'Straus Trophyv Bunker. I believed it. I walked into the Common Room, and there I felt at home. I didn't recognize any- one, except, of course, Horace Lunt at the piano Che was playing something with Bob Wallj, but the atmosphere was the same: several people playing chess, magazines strewn about, Steve Marglin proving a theory on the back of a napkin and talking about tequila, coffee in the coffee pot and the bells of the clocks chiming like crazy. Coming out of the Common Room I ran into an extraordinarily tall tutor who intro- duced himself as Gyde Shepard, tutor in Fine Arts. Gyde, I was later told, made Fine Arts 13 passable. On my way up to the House Office I was passed by a stream of intense looking people coming from the Senior Com- mon Room. Most of them turned out to be science tutors just out from planning the Science Table program for the term-Fotis Kafatos, Howie Berg, Tom Roth and Dan Fox all passed me followed by Ed Lin, who was also planning a Chinese dinner. The Chinese dinner did come, a few days later. Basketball captain Gene Augustine fsecond from rightj samples a Dunster Double Decker at the new House Grill. Murray Reich tleftj has directed an art workshop at Dunster for the past three years. 143 Master Alvin Pappenheimer Until then I had never heard of a Harvard chef getting a standing ovation as he emerged from the kitchen-of course he was imported especially for the occasion, but it was still something to witness. Now I ran into two other guys coming down the stairs passing a football back and forth: one, Paul Sullivan, was varsity tennis captain, number two varsity squash player, and 5076 of the touch football sleeper play. The other, Dave Johnston, was star hockey defenseman, Class Marshal, and the other SOCZJ of the sleeper play. I continued up to the House Office expecting to see some familiar faces there, but there were two new girls, one just mar- ried, which was lucky for someone, the other trying to sort out the mess that had been made of the office files in years past, which was unlucky for her. I sat up and talked with them for awhile and they told me about Chris Cerf's singing for the Lampoon and writing profitable Ifn Flfmfng parodies, and his rival of the Gar- goyle, Al Goldberg, about Pete Hyde and the Master's string quartet groups, about Andy Schalfer's report to the athletic de- partment which changed the seating arrange- ment for minor football games, about KP Smith's playing guitar for the Maniacs, Gene Augustine's being captain of the varsity basketball team, Dave Hickman's being pres- ident of the Crimson Key, and Ted Carman's climbing Memorial Hall to place a Hal- loween pumpkin on the very top. They also told me of how Phil Stone had taken on the thankless job of Assistant Senior Tutor. Now those are just a few of the people I met. A few days after I had woken up, they had what is called a Smoker. Now a Smoker usually is just a beer drinking party, but with Social Chairman George Finn running it, it turned out to be much more. There was singing. Not just ordinary singing, but real singing. It all started off civil enough with the Dunces Cthey're still the only singing group composed entirely of the members of one House in the Collegej singing some Senior Tutor Carey MacIntosh of their regular songs. But then their chief, Dave Brown, blew a whistle and, well, three hours later there were a lot of high singers, a lot of dirty songs, and a lot of empty kegs. No Smoker had been as successful in Dunster for over ten years. After the Smoker, things calmed down a bit Con the surface, that isj until the mid- dle of November. By then, however, Har- vard had come up with a second place soccer team, Charlie Kletzsch had come up with a concert of his own music, and Brian Hep- worth had come up with a play-reading seminar. The House Committee had bought a new TV set, run two dances, sold a record number of House cards, opposed the HSA indirectly by putting a hot dog and ham- burger grill in the basement and thrown the whole House into a controversy over girls in the dining Hall. This controversy was kind of interesting.: some felt that opening the Harvard Houses to interhouse dining with Radcliffe would be a truly educational experience, others thought it would destroy the masculine integrity of Harvard. The House Committee fought for weeks, finally brought the issue to a referen- dum which passed the House in favor of the proposal, which promptly got fouled up in University red tape. The Drama Review came out more than occasionally, Dr. Barry Wood inaugurated the new visitor's suite and gave two lectures, the House tied for first in the Straus Trophy for the fall, Mrs. Vreeland of the Health Cen- ter tried to make a survey of the House and, despite her good intentions, managed only to get parodied in the Christmas play. Also parodied in the Christmas play were Shake- speare and Wagner Cby Ed Nashb, and Ten- nessee Williams Cby Erich Segalj. Tom McCarthy kept the House running smoothly and Mrs. D. kept running out of pie, but all in all, by the time this had to go to press most everyone was glad it was reading period and no one had to do anything but sleep. I myself was getting pretty tired by then, but I was scared to go to sleep for fear I wouldn't wake up for another five years, and though I knew that looking backward is half the fun, there's really nothing like being there.

To the outsider that remark might seem a joke worthy of a half-smile, or even a chuckle. To the resident of Arcadia, as it is called by Master Finley, such a state- ment only indicates that the speaker knows little of the true character of perhaps the most distinctive of the Harvard Houses. There are indeed many separate f'corners in the Eliot dining hall, that great, long medieval hall which, on a winteris afternoon, is ilooded with sunlight streaming through its bank of huge windows. But each corner is a warm, congenial place where friends gather after morning classes to pursue the important part of their education. One trundles down Dunster Street after 147 listening to Mark Van Doren or Louis Hartz, opens the Coop bill and the letter from Smith or Vassar or Wheaton Cfew Eliot House men date Radcliffe girlsj, and joins the lunch line. After receiving one's daily portion of Central Kitchen hash or spaghetti and lemon pie, one turns and looks for a corner. One of the easiest to identify is the cor- ner where 'fthe cell is meeting. The in- formal total membership is about thirty junior, seniors and government tutors, and the talk is almost always about some political question. Sometimes theoretical fthe effect of mass communications on democratic val- uesj, sometimes more practical fthe iight for succession in the British Labor Partyj, al- most always very intelligent, sometimes quite violent. One can spot them by the hand- waving, the occasional loud voice, and the chinos and blue jeans. None are preppies fscratch one mythj. One might turn to one of several distinct jock corners. The public school element in- cludes the one third of the football team that is in Eliot, a few baseball players, trackmen, and swimmers. The prep group includes al- most the entire crew, and a healthy share of the soccer, squash, and lacrosse teams. A third group contains the House jocks. They come from all backgrounds, mix according to other interests with other groups, and are often quite good CEliot's football team this year was considered one of the best in the history of the leaguej. There are other corners. A rather depleted literary crowd fthe bulk of it graduated last Junej still survives, and includes several Advocate people, an amorphous group of seniors, and offer such tutors as Walter Kaiser and William Slottman. Almost all of them are brilliant, play sports that aren't too rough Csquashj, are in the Signet, and donlt know Harold Wilson from Strom Thur- mond. Yes, Virginia, Eliot House does have its share of preppies. If there are no more than ,, in other Houses, the ones in Eliot are prep- pies with a vengeance. Regimental striped ties, J. Press tweeds, either sharply creased trousers or incredibly battered jeans and chinos-nothing in between-and frayed blue shirts. During the week of the clubs' final dinners Eliot cancelled its House hockey games. Occasionally one comes across a roomful of fellows who prepped together CSt. Paul's, Grotonj, live together for four years in Cambridge, and will probably grow old together-comfortably-in the deep plush chairs of the New York or Boston Harvard Clubs. To the surprise of the public school fellow who applied to Dunster and was dumped into Eliot, the preppies can be quite human. And the reaction is often similar the other way around. This is surely Arcadia. The broad court- yard is ideal for tossing around a football, the immaculately-tended shrubbery blooms suddenly and profusely in Spring, and many a student has studied for iinals on a May afternoon under the great, shady elms. There is peace in this place. There is camaraderie if one wants it, solitude if one seeks com- munion with the spirits. To be fair, some detest Eliot House. They think it is cold, cliquish, often silly. And for them it certainly is. In the end Eliot House is what you make of it. Nothing is institutionalized. What there is comes from the students-naturally, spon- taneously. Except for wearing a tie at meals and buying a House card no one is ever pres- sured into doing anything. Some might in- terpret this as being ignored. Most see it, and desire it, as freedom. To understand Eliot House one must know its guiding spirit, its prophet, Master Finley. He wants Harvard, most of all, to impart to its sons a life stylea' which will stay with them, and guide them in the use of their future freedom. To learn to use freedom, to come to relish freedom, the student must have it during his college years. Thus the seeming indifference of the House staff in certain areas. In other ways-arranging in- formal seminars or dinners when asked, in doing their bit in the fellowship scramble- the staff is very active. Master Finley has often repeated that per-, haps the most important thing Harvard can do is make its sons think of women 60 per cent of the time instead of 80 per cent. And the master remains a staunch opponent of further liberalization of the rules governing women in the Houses. The Master's thesis is that women restrict men's freedom, and it is his mission to rescue that 40 per cent of their time, and guide them toward other pursuits. It is quite possible for someone to pass through Harvard without ever sensing the deeper currents running through the life of the University. These are the traditions of freedom, of fellowship, of an almost savage drive for an education stretching far beyond the lecture hall and library. But Henry Adams wrote that Harvard, above all, taught men to stand alone,', and in Master Finley's Arcadia standing alone is cultivated as a way of life. The outer trappings of the life Master Finley sees for his boys, in their free hours, are comfortable, well-stocked and elegant libraries, good sherry, stimulating talk. It goes deeper than this, of course. Master Finley wants Eliot House men to gain, in their four years in Cambridge, a de- sire to seek education throughout their lives. This is his style, and he wants it for his boys' because he cares deeply for them. Eliot's football team picks up yardage on its way to the House title in its final game against runner-up Leverett.

For the first time since the construc- tion boom shook the House System, Kirkland had something new to entice interested fresh- men. In addition to the gleaming showers added to most of the rooms, diffused light- ing now allows students to find EXIT signs over the door, the in way to escape fires. Master Taylor was on Sabbatical during the fall term when Dean von Stade returned to a former post as Acting Master. Mr. Taylor's enthusiasm for House athletics, was not lessened by his absence and House mor- ale did not sag. The Deacons were looking forward to a resurgent spring in order to keep the Straus trophy in its niche in the dining room, where it has so long resided. Don,t let Kirkland win again! was a famil- iar cry from other Houses. The semi-pro Eliot football team descended like a satyr- horde to claim the football trophy, and ath- letic secretary Felson reported he was often bribed to throw contests. Next yearls ath- letic squads will miss the talents of Seniors John Schmidt in football, Henry Massie, Doug Donaldson, and Mike Garfield in soc- cer, Dave MacGregor in touch, Jack Kraus- kopf in squash and tennis, and Felson. Other Houses felt this was the year to dethrone the Deacons from athletic suprem- acy, but Kirklandis drama was more active than ever. In the fall, Thom Babe and Nick Delbanco directed in the Loeb, and Babe turned playwright to win the first annual Phyllis Anderson Award for playwriting. Jonathan Gilman and Tom Hinkle directed a predominantly Kirkland cast in She Stoops to Conquer. Richard Lowenthal and Steve Botein gave memorable performances in dif- ficult roles. 'l' he Christmas play was the Reeve's T ale, a revival which would have shocked even Chaucer himself. Richard Nagin directed and played the lead, while Stan Ose played the Miller and Mike Povich a diapered baby. Horselaughs were furnished by the equine specimen portrayed Cfront to rearj by Dean von Stade and Eddie Chamberlain. The latter was heard to say, Never has a part fit me so well? Kirkland's musical tradition was upheld and strengthened this year. Dave Klausner conducted the Gilbert and Sullivan fall pro- duction of Yeomen of the Guard, while Al Guzetti composed an opera with Thom Babe. Sunday afternoon f'Zilch sessions were or- ganized by J ay Shelton, with the help of Mr. Nugent, the music tutor in the house. Charlie Castleman and his Compaignye performed at the Christmas play, highlighting their appear- ance was an 850 A.D. piece for three record- ers. Tom James led a forceful, if unclassical, group, called the MManiacs,U whose efforts could be heard all over Boston. On the jazz scene, two house pianists, Pete Loeb and Brian Cooke, were frequently heard around the Square. The House Committee had a productive year. By far the most useful accomplish- ment was getting Central Kitchen to put the silverware tray back to the front of the serv- ing table. Chairman William Mitch led the meetings in a dignified manner befitting his Southern heritage. Treasurer Jack Kraus- kopf did exceedingly well with the House finances. The Social Committee, led by Paul Newman, was also active. The fall was highlighted by the Bierstube, where light and dark Lowenbrau poured freely to the strains of live German music. The Valentine's Day celebration consisted of a dance and art movies, appropriately featuring a Mr. Magoo fthus illustrating that love has eye trou- blevj. The gambling evening of Spring Weekend proved to be as popular as always, though afterwards it was discovered that the winner had brought along his own play money. Even when the Crimson failed to make the entries, House members were kept informed of events by the regular editions of Logos. Editors Durant and Olken con- stantly sought new ways to express their ideas, each issue was filled with surprises. A variety of personalities visited Kirkland House this year. For a month in the fall, Kirkland's musical tradition was upheld 2 Dean Von Stade tfar leftj was Kirklandis Acting Master in Mr. Taylor's absence, while Ernest May tleftj continued as Senior Tutor. Below, lVIr. Von Stade ffrontj and Eddie Chamberlain Crearj fur- nished horselaughs in the Christmas production of Chaucer's REEVE'S TALE. Mr. Chamberlain, a perennial favorite in Kirkland's dramatic efforts, was heard to remark as the curtain came down, Never has a part fit me so wellf' Far right: Mas- ter Taylor and Senior Tutor May present seniors with their diplomas following commencement exer- cises. Lev Miroschninov from Moscow's Academy of Science lived inconspicuously in K-entry. Alistair Reid of the New Yorker came as a Ford visitor and delivered an interesting talk on Spain. Saxophonist Sigurd Rascher, philosopher Eric Heller, and novelist William Golding came in the spring to meet house members. In House seminars, prospective writers learned from novelist William Abra- hams, While others studied Latin America with Professor Barnes. Much credit is due the Administration of the House for House atmosphere. The House secretary of six years, Anne Hoover, lent Wisdom and enthusiasm to every House ac- tivity from the French table to the Christmas play. The House will miss her next year when she leaves on a well-deserved sabbat- ical. Student-tutor tables and frequent entry parties given by the tutors proved successful in acquainting sophomores with the staff. Looking across the courtyard from H-entry to B-entry, one realizes that it is impossible to characterize Kirkland House as one type or another. For, in Kirkland House, many seemingly diverse elements are integrated to produce the resulting gung-ho House spirit coupled with strong individualism. Music, drama, athletics, and a strong interest in World affairs are but a few of the factors which serve to make Kirkland a pleasant House. l I r I , ., WM of M W my ' V' -:mf v. -if- :.:2-'f ' ,u f A. .. lf ' ' fl we iw:-.ff f -ff V, Q' ,, M., , A . ,WI I, K V, A'f- iz-15,325 -3211 .421 - Q. pw V f 0,,:,-'--11.i'f:'y,g34,2f L'.i-ww .-2, , ,' M : 1 .

Three years after the construction of the Towers, the essen- tially new House which was produced is ma- turing. For instance, Leverett is developing that subtle distinction known as House im- age: the term most often used is the indivi- dualist House, which like most images char- acterizes, but hardly describes. It arises partly from Leverett's size, which makes it diffi- cult to know everyone even in one's own class, and also from its physical structure, since the Tower's 80 singles often become the bedroom halves of Widener stalls. Until this year there was virtually no sense of com- munity, now, although there is the usual pro- portion of students who are not concerned with House affairs, among the more active groups there is a feeling of really belonging to Leverett rather than just living there. A good example of the new Leverett is this yearas intramural sports activity. The touch football team, led by Cam Baher, swept through an undefeated season, 8-0, and then tied Jonathan Edwards, Yaleis champion, 20-20. The tackle team, with Mike Hardesty as captain and Tim Casgar at quarterback, lost to Eliot and came in second, but avenged itself by trouncing Timothy Dwight, 16-0. The combination gave Leverett first place in the fall Strauss trophy standings. With pros- pects good for last year's league leading A basketball team to retain the championship, Leverett is a serious contender for the Strauss Trophy this year. The biggest factor behind this new athletic prominence is greatly in- creased participation, especially among soph- omores. Increased attendance in organized social activity has also reflected the greater Leve- rett enthusiasm. Last spring weekend, for which resources were pooled with Quincy, featured a vastly oversubscribed boat cruise off Hyannisport Friday night and a picnic and dance Saturday at the Concord Rod and Gun Club, with barbecues, hayrides, and a rock and roll band. Blessed by good weather, it was the best spring weekend in years. This fall the Crusader Caper after the Holy Cross game, was not too well attended, but the annual Halloween smoker, with 100 quarts of beer and King Kong, was both Master John Conway ended forty years of bachelorhood when he married Jill Ker shortly before Christmas. !i if JJ? : 155 .f- S if , Z5 A ,552- Pina.- wili 1 sf 'I-.4 - Z ' Q4 .Q at -I ,. yi .wa fy g Q is g ,t..

The Yale dance was also held in conjunc- tion with Quincy, with the added attraction of a candle-light-and-wine banquet in Leve- rettis dining hall beforehand. Following the long-established tradition of two years, three musical settings were provided: ballroom dancing in Leverett's dining room, twisting in Quincy's, and modern jazz in Leverett's Old Library. Despite rumors caused by all the joint activity, the Leverett and Quincy social committees are not considering merger. The Leverett House committee, like most House committees, operates in a quiet, un- obstrusive way, with only occasional proj- ects being especially noticeable. Last spring there was the fifth annual Arts Festival. Em- boldened by the success of the space framev the previous two years, chairman Blair Brown and the committee decided to try a geodesic dome. The dome, unfortunately, became a case of ambition oierleaping it- self, and collapsed in a high wind, probably because of mis-assembly of its complex struc- ture. Nevertheless, some thought that too much enthusiasm had gone into the build- ing of the domes and not enough into organ- izing the day-to-day running of the events in it, which suffered some from the neglect. The F estival's art contest and exhibition was the least bothered by this, since the quality of the entries was excellent. The Festival will probably be repeated this year, but on a more modest scale. In collaboration with the senior common room, the committee also sponsored the an- nual bawdy Christmas play. This year's play, by English tutor David Sonstroem, was en- titled St. Nicolas and the Virgins. Last spring was a good period for the arts in Leverett. The Music Society was especially busy. Its outstanding production was a chamber opera by Purcell, Dido and Aneas, which was not only popular but even slightly profitable. It also sponsored a recital by a trio from the Longy school of music, and, during the Arts Festival, two student piano recitals and a Wind Ensemble concert. The Drama Society presented an original translation of Wolfgang Borchert's Outside the Door and, during the Arts Festival, Blair Brown's Mr. Ooze. This fall, the Drama Society has sponsored only Jen' Fox's production of Brecht's The Meas- ures Taken: the Music Society has been in- active, but has scheduled an opera by Handel and another Wind Ensemble conceit for the spring. In addition to the more formal activities there are several seminars and tables. The most venerable and regular of these is the Social Sciences Table, which is Ublessedly, completely, student run by an ad hoc student committee headed this year by David Kronenfield, the table meets more or less once a week for sherry, dinner, and informal conversation with scholars in the social sci- ences. Guests this year have included Pro- fessors Oscar Handlin, Stanley Hoffman, and Evon Vogt, among others. This year saw the introduction of a month- ly Natural Sciences table, which was well attended after natural sciences students found out about it, and a biweekly Table Francaise which was an immediate success, perhaps because of the vin extraordinaire which went with it. Adams has its swimming pool, and Lowell its bells, Leverett, in keeping with its mod- ern style, has its own radio station. WLHR was started when WHRB had trouble get- ting piped into the T0wer's wiring, instead of folding once Contact with WHRB was es- tablished, it survived and has gotten better each year. Now, under President John Razer, it offers programs five evenings a week, Fri- day and Saturday nights being a bit difficult to man. Most of those who work on it prefer its informality to the professionalism prev- alent at its competitor, some, however, work at both. Another change this year, coincidental but symbolic, was the resignation of Master John Conway. As Master for the last six years, he had a large voice in the shape the new Leverett would take. Since Leverett has now matured, and his work is in a certain sense done, it somehow seems fitting that his departure should coincide with that of the first all-Leverettw graduating class. Dr. Con- way ended not only fifteen years at Harvard this year, but forty years of bachelorhood as well, just before Christmas vacation he married Jill Ker, the head section woman in his course, Soc Sci 6. Most House mem- bers were unable to attend the reception, but the armual Christmas banquet and play served as a suitably spirited substitute for a bachelor party. After leaving Cambridge in June, the Conways will travel via Australia and Japan to Cambridge, England, where Mr. Conway will write a book on American- Canadian relations. The incoming Master, Dr. Richard Gill, has been Leverettls senior tutor for the last five years. He is quite active within the col- lege, having originated the Gill plan Ctutorial, in theory, for all humanities and social sci- ences majorsj, currently serving as executive secretary of the General Education Review committee, and being head of Ec 1 and lec- turing in Ee 169 as well. Dr. Gill is already well known and liked by the undergraduates. Q , ,. . Q,!Ti,,1r l,.sk ,Q QQ . Q Q QQQQQQ..f1i ,. Qf:'-z ,Q :Wg .. Q. . QQQQQQF. . Q Q Q . . . 7 elf 2 X.

To measure a Masterls direct influence on a Harvard House is a delicate task, best at- tempted by considering the attitudes of the House members towards their Master. In the case of Elliott Perkins, many attitudes could be found. He was that fearsomely British chap with those Thursday teas and cucumber sandwiches. He was the fellow who backed 158 his boys to the limit on the battlefields of University Hall. He was the perpetrator of such undemocratic practices as High Table. He was the rock of tradition in the tossing seas of fashion. He was the author of those notices in a sparkling style that would have made Doctor Johnson grunt with pleasure. He was, in short, the soul of Lowell House. The freshman of each year, expounding with authority on House stereotypes and images, could have pictured the spirit of Lowell House by describing Master Perkins, the Perk, the last of the red-hot masters, the last survival of an older richer time more green and golden than this. It is not an easy task to fill the post of Master of Lowell House, but Zeph Stewart, former acting Master of Adams House, is a man well qualified for the attempt. Students who grew to know him through his many associations with the undergraduate body, came to appreciate his engaging human qual- ities and to recognize his sincere concern for their affairs and their problems. Lowell House looks forward to Professor Stewart's sojourn as Master. The word most commonly associated with Lowell House is tradition. Lowell traditions take various forms, impinging to various de- grees on the Harvard community. The most famous for infamousj of these is the main- tenance of the Lowell House Society of Russian Bell Ringers. Every Sunday and on certain special occasions, about 25 tons of massive metal are set into frenzied rhythmic motion by equally frenzied ringers. All of Cambridge raises itself from its daily torpor to listen rapturously to President Eric Chi- vian and his fellow ringers, who will tell you that if you haven't heard a Bach B-minor fugure played on an imperfect Russian scale, you havenit lived. Another tradition peculiar to the House is the biweekly High Table. This mystic ceremony involves a different set of seniors each session, who, along with members of the Senior Common Room, are served dinner by candlelight, with all the touches of true civilization: black tie, wine, brandy and cigars. Lowell has, furthermore, an unoliicial tradition of what Master Perkins calls a pleasant disproportionf' referring to the number of Lowell House men in the lists for academic awards. In the Phi Beta Kappa listings, for example, Lowell men accounted for three of the Junior Eight and live of the Senior Sixteen. One of these last was Milton Herzog, whose sudden and unexplained death shocked his friends in the House. Milt's brilliant academic record and gentleness of manner are part of the memory that lives after him. Blazing activity characterized the Lowell HouseVDrama Group this year. It was the year for readings, diverse in subjects, com- mon in success. President Walt Jewell, with Treasurer Tom Reckford and Secretary Andy Nathan, engineered a great variety of dra- matic material in the Junior Common Room and in the Loeb Experimental Theater. Through the work of Andy Nathan and Retiring Master Eliot Perkins .f I .V P V,,, sir.. Senior Tutor Richard Ullman Keith Cushman, co-chairmen of the drama workshop, the House inaugurated a series of readings of prose and poetry. E. E. Cum- mings headed the list, with Mr. Gelpi of the House introducing selections from Poems, The Enormous Room and other works. Harold Pinter's duodrama, The Dumbwaiter, was given a reading by Jim Gustafson and Elliot Cohen on November 10. A reading of Unfashionable Poets followed, with How- ard Mumford Jones acting as master of cere- monies and reader-both functions per- formed with Wit and distinction. After Christmas vacation, Dr. Maurice Shroder hosted an evening of the Poetry of Invective: rapier thrusts and blunt instruments, read by Dr. Shroder and the drama workshop. Highlights of the second semester were read- ings of Ionesco's The Bald Soprano and of 'fStreet-Corner poets: Lindsey, Sandburg and Whitman? Activities of the drama group proper be- gan with two plays in what has already be- gun to be known as the 'fDavid Cole tradi- tion. The Laocoon Nobody Knows and The Bolts and Bars to Go were presented at the Loeb Experimental Theatre featur- ing the considerable talents of Mr. Cole, and Richard Stone of the House. The audience 160 responded with laughter, wonder, pity, ter- ror and Cpredominantlyj applause. The Junior Common Room took on a pinkish tinge the first week in December, when Leverett House joined with Lowell in pre- senting two views of Communism. Clifford Odets' Waiting for Lefty was directed by Lowell Houses Renato I.N.E. CCecil B.j Rosaldo, Geoffrey Fox of Leverett directed Berthold Brechtis The Measures Taken CDie Massnahmej, with Hans Eisler's music as accompaniment. Tom Reckford produced both. The annual House Christmas play was a parody of Don Giovanni, adapted by Jim Webster and Jay Jasanoff into the lecherous, raunchy bacchanale that produces annual pre-exam-period catharsis. The fertile spring season bristles with productions, some of them House originals. Dave Cole and Ron Pererra plan to present a new operag Art Morey and Bob Paul, the team responsible for last year's hit revue, Lute, Flute, Lyre ana' Sackbut, have a musical morality play entitled Babel coming up. Also scheduled is John Sissonls original play, Minsky O'Ryan, and the Magic Bathrobe. There are many sides to the House of in- tellect. This year the House committee con- tinued last year's innovation: two-band blasts. In the manlier sports, Bob 'The Scarfi' Altman organized the teamwork network, boosting the football team to a better-than- expected 3-3-2 record, despite an unusually high toll of injuries. The cross country team racked first place in the listings, with Sid Griest and Jeff Peck leading an inspired group of gallopers. Lowell's prospects are good in squash as has been the case for many years, Tom Reckford, team athletic secretary, glows with confidence. Also promising are fencing and softball for the spring. To the sphere of Harvard literary activity Lowell House makes a contribution in the form of Pharaetra, the House poetry maga- zine. Last year's issue was hand-printed and the copies, individually numbered. Editor C. Michael Hancher plans to have an issue out in February, with the possibility of a second issue later in the spring. Intellect ripens at mealtimes, they say, and Lowell House capitalizes on this by the Ford dinners. Guests of interest dine with House members and adjourn for coffee and discus- sion in the Junior Common room. Professor Robert Solow of MIT, former member of the Council of Economic Advisors came for dis- cussion, as did Robert DeGiacomo, assistant Attorney-General of Massachusetts. Mari- anne Moore followed a dinner with readings from her poetry, and charmed her audience. Not all activity of the mind joins that of the stomach, however. Two seminar groups met this year, one on society and one on the arts. Mr. Michael Yudkin, Commonwealth fellow at Harvard, led discussion and inquiry into the two intellectual cultures in a seminar surprisingly titled Two Cultures?,l Mr. John C. Wilmerding, a House tutor, will lead a seminar in the spring entitled f'Picasso and the Graphic Artsf' The House is honored this year by the presence of Sir Isaiah Berlin, Chichele Pro- fessor of Social and Political Theory at Ox- ford. Sir Isaiah is the author of The Hedge- hog and the Fox, and the controversial lec- ture Historical Inevitabilityf, Lowell House is hard to classify in terms of a House stereotype. It is not a political house, though leaders of the Young Demo- crats and Young Republicans are members, it is not a drama house, though the drama groups are active in all the aspects of theatre, it is not an athletic house, though some of its teams are leaders in House competition, it is, in face no single one of all these houses, though all the elements are present. Lowell House, like Harvard, is a place where tradi- tion and intellectual achievement combine for, and because of, the undergraduate. QUINCY HOUSE The envied split-level suites were the same, the food was excellent, and at first only the milk machine appeared to be new. But the sophomore class, which Master John Bullitt had selected before taking a year's sabbatical, held new attitudes. Meetings and mimeo- graph machines still debated political causes, but the newer elements showed that Quincy was becoming a well-rounded House with a great deal of corporate spirit. Although his appointment was only for the year, acting Master Laurence Wylie quickly demonstrated a rare ability to make himself known and liked by House members. He solicited student opinion and led the way in encouraging students and tutors to get to know each other. Another change in the House staff oc- curred when Mr. Larry Benson became Senior Tutor in the Spring term upon Paul Sigmundls departure for a professorial posi- tion at Princeton. Although Mr. Sigmund did not notice any marked change in the be- havior of Quincy men since the House had opened, he did observe the rounding outi' of Quincy's image and concerns. 162 With the addition of a group of outstand- ing sophomore athletes Quincy could boast of leading varsity football, basketball, and baseball players, as well as top tennis and squash players and varsity captains Roger Wiegand in squash and Al Straus in lacrosse. While many sophomore played on varsity teams, the juniors and seniors brought Quincy its greatest athletic triumph of the year: the intramural soccer championship. Gil Jost received most accolades for booting the win- ning goal in the team's 3-2 victory over Stiles College of Yale, but the entire team worked closely together to compile a 6-l-3 record. The football team fought fiercely under quar- terback George Campbell, as many oppo- nents learned to their dismay. Graham Smith exemplified Quincy determination by rejoin- ing the team after a hospital bout with pneu- monia, only to suffer a broken nose in Quincy's victory over Yale's Branford Col- lege. The basketball and squash teams were also strong. The weekly House newspaper, The Quincy Mascle, under the energetic direction of Charlie Stevenson and Bernie Rappaport, observed that there had been a marked in- crease in House spirit, that feeling among the members that Quincy is a distinct and important part of their college lifef' Al- though this conclusion was based on intangi- bles, there were unmistakable outward mani- festations of at least some kind of change, First, there were the mixers which Social Chairman Dick Amberg ran for overflow crowds. Where two half-kegs of beer had been consumed in two and a half hours in the past, by the second mixer of the year five half-kegs were consumed within the same time period. Boston newspapers reported the event and headlined Amberg's slogan, H7000 lbs. of girls and 7000 oz. of beer. Second, there were the formally organized dances in the dining hall, but the formality ended quickly as Ricky Coyne and his Guitar Rockers Camong othersj played for frenzied twisters. Qn big weekends Quincy usually teamed with Leverett so that dancers could have their choice of slow or fast music. On Yale weekend, in addition, the two Houses sponsored a dinner with wine, candlelight, and music. And then there were the controversies. Acting Master Laurence Wylie 163 Senior Tutor Larry Benson Dick Amberg wanted to have a dance with a North Carolina twist band, noted primarily for its high price, its obscene songs, and its distinction of having been banned from every Ivy League school at which it had performed. The proposal lacked support in the House Committee and was dropped. Then Amberg proposed that the Yale dance be held in a group of rooms on the sixth floor of the new building, assuming that proper precautions would be taken to prevent it from being what one House Committee member called a devious way around parietalsf, The Com- mittee of House Masters vetoed the pro- posal. A few days before the Yale dance, the biggest controversy broke when Dick Am- berg proposed that decorations in the din- ing hall include mattresses piled up to serve as cushions on which to recline. A motion to prohibit them failed to pass the House Committee, so some outraged Quincy men took their pens and mimeograph machines C'fThe Yale Dance would look like a Red Cross Evacuation Center, said one anony- mous publication. Remember, the mattress you save may be your ownnl and forced a House referendum which decisively put the mattress plan to rest. The House Committee, which was the cen- ter of these controversies, was also the focal point for the renewed interest in House af- fairs. Frank Ripley, chairman during the fall term, calmly kept the committee doing its many jobs while the heated meetings pro- duced many absurd and amusing remarks which Secretary .Toe Newhouse used to flavor his minutes. Probably as a result of this renewed interest, twice as many sophomores and three times as many juniors as there were available places ran for the 1963 House Committee, which Bob Kurdle chaired. Another controversy arose over the intro- duction of music into the dining hall. A poll showed the House 2-1 in favor of the idea, but Muzac fans were adamant. Fin- ally, in a welcome compromise, several mem- bers of the Music Society CLarry Franko, George Goldberg, Charlie Hamlen, Gordon Lantz, and Dick Wilsonj volunteered to play live music on some Saturday evenings. Not everything in Quincy changed. Quincy men gathered nightly at Clark Ridgelyis fabulously successful Grill to watch tele- vision, to talk, and to eat thousands of dol- lars worth of 'fdouble-duty burgers. They played pool until all hours, borrowed tools from the new tool room, and worked out in the small gym. Even the old divisions be- tween residents of Mather and the new build- ing were less evident as Quincyites celebrated Christmas with Mrs. Avrett's famous punch, dinner with cigars, a play, and caroling led at lirst by Quincy members of the Glee Club and then spontaneously by students and tutors. Quincy still housed many of the Uni- versityls leaders, including HCUA President Neil Minihan, many officers of the Young Democrats and Young Republicans, Tocsin, Debate Council, WHRB, and the HRO, but many of these people were also involved in House affairs. The Drama Society, always strong in Quincy, presented its greatest achievement, Shakespeare's Richard III. Dave Brownell produced the play, while Sam Abbott di- rected the predominately Quincy cast, headed by Stan Pickett in the title role. Full houses saw what Professor Harry Levin called the best House production of Shakespeare in recent years. The Drama Society also spon- sored plays at the Loeb experimental theater, David Howels productions of two Sean OlCasey plays and Charlie Hart's original work, The Sleeping Beauty. The Arts Fes- tival in March, run by Fernand Brunschwig, again gave students of Mr. Morton Sachs' art class the opportunity to display their creations, and contests were also held in photography, painting and writing. Political groups still had large contingents and kept busy during the election campaign. As a result of the election, H. Stuart Hughes, an associate of Quincy, had to be content with Quincy chowder instead of Senate bean soup. Tocsin members gathered in lengthy meetings during the Cuban crisis and issued statements, only to be confronted with coun- ter-statements by pro-quarantine forces. The 7 Quincy House Forum, by a fortunate coinci- dence, had scheduled Professors Henry Kis- singer and Stanley Hoffman to speak the day after the President's announcement of the blockade. The Forum also presented discussions on the Common Market by the British and French Consuls-General and on domestic economic policies by Eisenhower and Kennedy administration economic ad- visers. The Africa table drew large crowds to hear South African government advisers, Chief Bathoen of the Bangwaketse tribe in Bechuanaland, and scheduled Iomo Ken- yatta, head of Kenya's Kanu Party, for the spring term. The Asian Table was instituted and heard experts discuss the problems of that area. The Sino-Indian border war was an im- portant topic, and Quincy was fortunate to have Mrs. Kusim Nair, an agricultural econo- mist from India, and Mr. Sumal Sinha, an Indian Foreign Service Qiicer who had spent several years in Peking, living in the House and contributing to these discussions. Con- centration dinners and tables were held, as well as many language tables. The guest at one sign-up dinner was Cam- bridge City Councilman Al Velucci, who had an opportunity to verify or have dispelled his reputed anti-Harvard feelings. The same night a large wine-tasting session was held. Dialogue between students and tutors im- proved, because many more tutors were eat- ing in the House. The Acting Master and Senior Tutor encouraged this trend, which strengthened the community spirit. One tragic event revealed the extent of this spirit. In December, Mrs. Mary Fitz- gerald, the dining hall checker since Quincy opened, who cheered students with her kind words and friendly greetings, was struck and killed by an automobile. The entire House felt the loss deeply, and Quincy men and staff members sent flowers, attended services, and contributed to a fund to purchase for the House a permanent memorial for Mrs. Fitz- gerald. At the beginning of the year, Mr. Wylie posed Quincy's fundamental problem when he told the incoming sophomores that Quincy men, since most were in a House of their choice, felt less need and obligation to create something. In their comfortable content- ment, he observed, they might disregard the House and not try to develop the close ties which enable the Houses to be successful in destroying Harvardis curse of anonymity. The events of this year demonstrated that Quincy had developed a sense of community and could offer stimulating and diversified excellence to its members and to the Harvard community.

WINTHROP HOUSE 166 Perhaps more than any other one event this year, the House Christmas Show, a joint effort of tutors and students, demonstrated Winthrop's particular strength. English tutor David Littlejohn wrote the tutors' half of the evening, a skitlet entitled Virtue Re- warded, or Regular Guyism Triumphant, which dealt with the latest effort to tag House images. Senior Tutors' Secretary Sheila Stannard played Miss Vrieland, erst- while Soc. Rel. interviewer, and various members of the staff-including Master Owen as a Sophomore, Stanley Hoffman as a Peacemonger, and Senior Tutor Standish Meacham as a Weenie-portrayed one House in search of an image. The tutors ended with a rousing musical tribute to Win- throp which sounded vaguely reminiscent of the chorus from last year's Can-Can. For their half, the undergraduates offered a series of skits and songs, most of them written by senior Carter Wilson. Their finale was a short satire called Alice in Tutorland, in which Miss Stannard fagainj played the first Radcliffe Interhouse Exchange Student and various members played such Worthies as S. Steamer Hofbrau, Sonny Cram and Terry Maltliquor. In Virtue Rewarded, Miss Vrieland, the Soc. Rel. expert, had compared Winthrop to two closed circles, jocks and intellectuals, touching only on the periphery. She saw regular guyismu as the emerging House im- age. But Miss Vrieland missed the point of President Conant's famous observation that the Houses are a social institution with the moral purpose of furthering the fellowship of educated men. No one ever intended the Houses to be tight social units or feudal manors, and no one intended that concern over House consciousness and House image, though natural enough, should take prece- dent over the more serious idea of the dia- logue between teachers and students. The dialogue was nowhere more exciting than in Winthrop. In the noisy, sunken, baron- ial dining hall and in their rooms, tutors like Joe Stevens, David Littlejohn, and Dick Onoratto, to name only a few, informally en- couraged it. Littlejohn's weekly Play Read- ing Society, for example, spiked with Clif- fiesn and appropriate refreshmentsf' quickly became a House fixture. Professor Frank Freidelis History and Government Table re- mained as popular as ever, with a guest list including Crane Brinton. Occasional lan- 4guV -Q., ,VM . 45 W rf'Q . Q I ??'Af ' 5's .3 5 .W .

The popular new Senior Tutor, Standish Meacham, also helped to establish Winthrop's special, relaxed at- mosphere. He and his family, including dog Hugo, were House favorites from the be- ginning. The House Committee, under the leader- ship of Chuck Breyer, purchased a new rec- ord player for the House and sponsored a series of highly successful football cookouts. Films on the order of The Caine Mutiny and Picnic were shown most Friday nights and were followed by informal dances. The slightly more esoteric Sunday Night Film Society offered free to House members such classics as 'fAlexander Nevskyf' Cocteau's Casque d' Or, and a Marx Brothers festival. Always active in drama, Winthrop spon- sored four productions during the year. Carter Wilson's original play, The Unweeded Garden of Cora Jenks, was produced in the Loeb Experimental Theater in November. The Balcony, under Phil Stotter's direction, was produced in the House in the spring, as was James Silverthorn's version of Time Remembered. Where's Charley?, the Win- throp musical brought a fresh influx of dancers and leggy chorus girls to the House. David Pauling's production, like its prede- cessors, was a smashing success. The Winthrop House Forum, so success- ful last year, sponsored only one meeting Above: Professor Stanley Hoffmann fSoc Sci 112: WARD strikes a blow for peace in the Christmas play.

Plans were also afoot to have Walter Reuther spend a week in residence in the House. In publications, the Winthrop-Comstock Lion Rampantf' edited by George Pring and Max Byrd, again found favorable criti- cal reception. Last year The Nation named the magazine among the ten most important college magazines in the country. Much of the credit for the success of Win- throp's dialogue must go to Master David Owen, regarded by many observers as the finest Master in the House system. Master Owen's warmth and wit, his genuine interest in the life of the House and his phenomenal memory for students' names and activities have gone far toward making the House the center of its members, college careers. , N .EQ Z? :z n 1: 2 I .ml . elf' .1 A Z 525 3?

Dur- ing the first week each freshman became ac- quainted with the Home of Intellect, going on historical tours with the Crimson Key Society, discussing summer reading at coffee hours, and wandering from placement test to placement test. After a cursory introduction to Memorial Hall via Sanders Theater, each freshman went through a thoroughly traumatic awak- ening at the mass registration in that archi- tectural wonder. At registration the poor freshman, after standing in line and filling out myriads of small paper cards, was sub- jected to the gauntlet of organizations, clubs, societies, and other sects which flourish at Harvard. With WHRB pounding in his ears, Young Everythings tugging at his sleeve, and fair forms selling Radcliffe Registers suavely depleting his pocketbook, the sell-shocked newcomer staggered out into the last breath of summer. Freshmen met advisers, freshmen met proctors, freshmen met sophomores selling couches, and, of course, freshmen met the HSA. Advisers were wise, but gave little in- formation about courses, all in the Harvard spirit of independence. Proctors, after demonstrating their jolity with a beer party, spoke of life, love, and parietals, interjecting comments about the horrible penalties in- flicted for not returning library books. Every- one rushed about, sooner or later, trying to find economical furnishings for dingy rooms. Of course, with 268 freshmen from Massa- chusetts, 205 from New York, and 63 from Connecticut, many a home's furniture was partially transferred to the Yard, but some, like the delegation of 60 from California, 171 Freshman Advisers entertained the Class of '66 with a hilarious Christmas play in the Union. 'aff Nz had to buy furniture from little men who told them they must be very quiet in getting the couch out of the basement. The Harvard Student Agencies smothered the new class with attention: selling stationery, providing linen, soliciting magazine subscriptions, and even vending food a la cart. With final study cards Hled, the Class of '66 started learning in earnest. They learned astounding facts, such as that one of the only requirements for graduation at Harvard is being able to swim nfty yards. One pro- fessor opened his first lecture by telling students to forget the voluminous reading list, came back the next time and, after a significantly dirty look at section men, told the class to be good boys and girls and read the stuff to make their section men happy. Despite the various demands upon the freshman's time, he somehow managed to attend the mixers at Memorial Hall, at the ,Cliffe, in fact anywhere they were held. After having seen his partner leave him, only to change hands five more times during one song, the suavest of the hip tried to induce the innocents to go out for coffee. On the whole, though mixers certainly demonstrated that Harvard outnumbers Radcliffe four to one, freshmen began to tire of the mixers, and gladly threw themselves into such heady passtimes as joining GUTS and engaging in brewing contests. An ambitious freshman even formed a freshman tiddlywinks team, only to find that the Physical Training De- partment would not recognize it as a legiti- mate PT activity. PT and Gen Ed became the most talked about abbreviations, as Yardlings found it grueling to make the football team, and their instructors found their Gen Ed papers gruel- ing to read. The Yardling football team demonstrated the determined spirit of the class by becoming the first undefeated fresh- man pigskin squad since 1928. No matter how high in the Ivy Tower the prospective scholar was, he had to come down quickly when the crisis in Cuba reached its dramatic climax. After the old graduate's speech debate was tense and often heated in the cool fall air. Over 2000 students tried to hear Professor Hughes speak in Lowell Lecture Hall, among them a demonstrative group of freshmen with their now notorious black umbrellas. Professor Hughes, along with members of two rather well-known families of Massa- chusetts, generated some excitement and more comment in the all-Harvard senatorial race that culminated in November with the election of the man who knew how to take exams at Harvard-he thought. While the Crimson laznbasted Kennedy and Professor Beer defended him, Teddy calmly won by a wide margin. While the politicos campaigned for a voca- tion, the freshmen started campaigning for a vacation, and for most weary souls Christ- mas came none too soon. True, that while lucky sun worshippers tanned in Miami and stomped in Palm Springs, the majority in the East found little comfort in the zero- degree weather, but most Yardlings spent a bit of the time studying anyway. The work that had been put off until Christmas never really did get done until reading period, but papers were due, and catching up was not merely the national passtime but a The Freshman Council met, and met, in the Union. Ziff a V' ,awftawf 2 l73 scholastic job as well. However, much he complained of the work to be done, the aver- age Yardling came back with new determina- tion to do his reading, to go to Lamont, and to face the Union. The Union, strange to tell, became a place of luxury, as dinners and breakfasts were skipped because of reading assignments, har- ried horrors of papers, and studying for exams. That fateful day of January 18th was upon the earth, never had one trembled so much over such a small piece of paper. All it said was 'fFinal Examination in Haard- vark Qf' Bluebooks that looked so small seemed to expand geometrically as those fateful three hours fled, and faces became bluer than booklets. During this traumatic time of trial it became apparent that two types of freshmen existed: those who sent in postcards and those who did not want their grades until they had enjoyed their in- tersession. Intersession, the only vacation allowed to students on the semester systern, was for some scholars only four days long, but over half the class disappeared for as long as possible. They visited old homesteads and new pads, New York and New Jersey and Newton Falls. The class was represented in Putney for racy living and at other ski re- sorts for that snowed feeling. And then . . . Monday morning, and the rabbits were off and running again to Regis- tration and advisers. This time the fresh- man knew what he wanted, refused to show a fearful glance, mindful of his new maturity. Registration day was exciting for another reason: the Governor of the 310,000 bath- room, Ross Barnett, came to expound his views on states' rights and to state that he did not know what human rights were. Reviewing the iirst semesterls accomplish- ments as he filed his study card, the Yardling could almost wallow in his achievements. Now he knew how to get to Park St. CNot eight minutes, but sixteen were about ade- quate on the aging MTAJ From the Bea- con Hill Theatre to the Telepix he could thread his way through historic Boston, stop- ping at the old South Church on his way to Filene's. Many a superior smile stemmed from the secure knowledge that Boylston St., Charles St., and many a wayward way were in fact names for at least two different streets, for the only eternal thing in Boston Cbesides traditionj is the swanboats paddling lazily through the middle of town. Many of his trips through the Hub had been with Her. Nostalgic memories of walk- ing through Washington St. in waves of rain, only to get to Dinols for pizza, perhaps per- vaded his thoughts as the lemming race started again that bleak February day. An- other old hand fafter one semesterj might fondly recall that beautiful MTA ride out to Wellesley with the bus's resident drunk, amiable and aromatic, sitting in back of his chic chick. Once again, spring semester-and even Radcliffe seemed very far away, as reading piled up, extracurricular commitments grew, and winterls chill benumbed the mind. Some- how the second semester was not quite as bad as the Hrst, an effect chalked up to variables such as study habits, determination, and sim- ply learning the rules of the game. As March came and went, the icy Charles flowed, spent with winter's inertia but at last ready to rout the freshman crew out of the warm boathouse on to the windswept waters. Easter vacation saw the crew rowing twice a day, but many Yardlings were in no mood for working. New York was the place to catch one's breath . . . and a hangover, home was solace for a soggy stomach. Some pro- fessors seemed to think that Easter was an- other name for reading period, but most of the reading done was of speedometers on the turnpike. Living from break to break proved the way to stay young, for hibernation between Easter vacation and Jubilee Weekend avoid- cd the mad rush towards summer that pre- ceded reading period. Jubilee Weekend, with its romantic candlelight banquet and . will formal dance fGary Berger's bandj proved to be the highlight of freshman activity for the year. Those who planned ahead land bought the all-inclusive twelve dollar ticketj got to see the Brothers Four, swing at two dances, and say appropriate good-byes Sun- day morning to the accompaniment of the Freshman Glee Club. Despite transporta- tion troubles, putting up with hotel house- mothers, and strained parietals, the Jubilee weekend was preparation for the deluge of studying to come. Lightning may not strike twice, but exams do, especially in those indivisible General Education courses. Though spring threat- ened to precipitate his fall, the dauntless Yearling swept through reading period and those sadistic statistics called finals. Moaning and groaning aside Call legitimate, of courseb, whether about studies, the weather, lost op- portunities, or Union coffee, most of the now worldly men of Harvard had enjoyed their first adventures in the Big Leagues. Returning to homes near UCLA, Rice, Chi- cago, Columbia, and even Yale, a few might find sanctuary in the less-imposing cam- puses next door, but next yearis sophomore class would be nearly unchanged in number and composition. Why? Intellectuals and Playboys enjoyed the stimulation of a col- lege town, iconoclasts gloried in their in- dividualism, most Yardlings liked the col- lege. After all, who can turn down Harvard? CAMBRIDGE 176 , N n W 178 vgx V+:- --Q gif-rf , RADCLIFFE AT HARVARD Suddenly, at some point in April, everyone in Sever 11 begins looking around at everyone else again. Instead of taking notes on English history, people draw faces, experi- ment with initials, scribble, or simply do nothing, happily. They hum between classes. Lust returns to Harvard and Radcliffe . . . Whoever thinks of the schools as brother and sister has sadly missed the point. Every single one of the 1200 girls who comes to Cambridge, and lives a mile out of the Square, comes for one overwhelmingly powerful reason: Harvard. And not the diploma Calthough that's nice, she will say a little too smuglyj, and not the joint catalogue Calthough it amused her to see how upset her Harvard friends were at thatl, but simply for that wonderful, inde- scribable, total mystery. She feels the magic at least as much as the boys do. She likes to say the name softly, to sing Ten Thousand Men . . . to herself, to see the fairy tale towers along the Charles when she comes back after a vacation. The infatuation is total and constant. And it works on the individual level just as well. Although perhaps only a part of Harvard ever dates Radcliffe, every single Clifhe dates Harvard. Perhaps 90 per cent of the girls date Harvard exclusively. With a blazing glow in her eyes, she tells inquiring high school seniors of the fantastic social life. Of the fantastic boys. During freshman Orientation Week, the 182 upperclasswomen reveal to the newest batch of girls the oldest and most widespread Harvard line: You're not a typical 'Cliffief' In the next five boys tell each girl of her uniqueness. Some minor neuroses are understandable, however. Harvard is kept from loving Rad- cliife as spontaneously as she loves him by a thousand material barriers. A horrifying four-to-one ratio. Neat feminine handwriting and high marks C76 per cent of last year's seniors graduated with honorsj. The fact that she knows more boys in his House than he does. And so the very name of Radcliife can easily conjure up images of mystery, of disappointment, of competition, of it-just- isn't-worth-it. Little wonder that so many Harvard seniors don't know where The Quad is, and donat particularly care. One boy remarked flatly, I wouldn't date a Radcliffe girl for the same reason that I wouldn't date a Harvard manf' Pk vii Dk Harvard men may tell each other the stereotypes, but they peel their eyes for the girls. Huge groups gather in September in the Coop book annex to flirt and block the passages. T ocsin meetings fade imperceptibly into dates. A casual remark made while handing in an hour exam becomes the iirst in a long conversation. Cafeteria coffee fills the intervals between classes. A boy walking up and down Mass. Ave. to kill some time runs into the same girl three times, doing the same thing. Freshmen waiting in line to see the head of the Math Department begin talking about College Boards and end by talking about next Saturday night. As everyone who has ever written about the place has pointed out, Harvard and Rad- cliffe, however, are not like big state uni- versities. Lounging around the Charles in 183 the Spring has the unique atmosphere of sophisticated withdrawal rather than free-for- all flirting. And the game of boy-meets-girl is not played with the same abandon on Massachusetts Avenue as on the paths of Freshwater U. But on the planning board in the Infomation Office looms a shining modern student union, with bowling alleys and snack bar, magazines and pool tables and television. A spectre of horror to all true sons of Harvard, of course, the alumni may riot. For now, student union substitutes have to be devised. Choose your substitute by what you would most like to make believe you're doing. Would you rather meet girls while going through the motions of reading Anglo-Saxon poetry, eating a garlic burger at the spa, writing a news article, or main- taining your religious heritage? Only a few seek their mixing unadulterated, at the in- frequent mixers, is Once you have met, the game is just be- ginning. Boy and girl now must go out on a Date. For at least a week, he calls while she is out, thus leaving daily messages signed Mr. X. She, meanwhile, racks her brain to figure out who it could be, at last deciding happily on the wrong boy. The date eventually gets under way, com- plete with all the little complications of girls' school red tape.

A girl at a Harvard meal is still a notable phenomonon, and whether of the girdle and high heels-Saturday night variety or the sloppier weekday type, her arrival is noticed and viewed by the natives with some form of interest or annoyance. Conversation changes, they say. And the atmosphere. Her date apologizes for the food, points out the chandeliers, carries her silverware, and wishes they had gone somewhere else. Cliflies are not snowed by Harvard Houses, he knows. He doesn't realize perhaps how much even the most jaded of Radcliffe seniors loves that meal, changed atmosphere, ludicrous trays, high bacterial count and all. And the Harvard man really enjoys having supper in a feminine world.

Or perhaps he was so gauche as to want a glass of milk at Wednesday supper. But He is a god here, and before very long he will find himself philosophizing happily about eating on small plates, about meals at other girls' schools he has known. How nice that every- one takes a turn being a waitress, he says. And Cliflies tell him the word is waiting- on. Little by little the old breakwater of order and elegance is crumbling, however. Dun- garees are perfectly acceptable in the dining halls, if they are properly topped. Girls in clubs are considered club members lirst, and allowed to dine with fellow club members in the Houses.

Pk But whether we are one school or two, Harvard-Radcliffe, H-R, or some fantasti- cally irreverent fusion of the names, does it really make any difference? We will have common memories, but the memories will be of people, not of schools. When we meet again in a decade or so in Grand Central Station or Ulan Bator, doubtless our school spirit will have grown beyond recognition. But no matter what we tell ourselves, if when it's all over we love this dingy, cobbled, much too damp little city, it will be for only one reason.

L- 1 FOOTBALL Ask any football squad which is more im- portant to the success of a team, the line or the backfield, and the answer would probably be the line by a 7-4 vote. Sportswriters and coaches have never been completely satisfied with the judgment, however, and the issue has been a favorite debate topic for decades. The 1962 Ivy football season may not have settled the dispute permanently, but it did give a strong indication of what counted in the modern Ivy circuit-the line. At the beginning of the year forecasters gaily counted returning lettermen, weighed the records of several fiashy backs, and decided Princeton was the team to beat. Dartmouth and Harvard were rated close contenders on the basis of their backfield strength. Few talked about lines, perhaps because the quality of a line is hard to measure statisti- cally and only becomes apparent once the season begins. Ignoring the linemen was a serious mis- take, as they were the men who determined the eventual shape of the League. Princeton became a paper tiger despite the extraordi- nary fact that its third string backs would have been welcomed as starters on most Ivy teams. Cornell, with perhaps the best back in the League, had an average line and an average season. Dartmouth possessed the finest line seen in the League for sometime and finished the season undefeated. Harvard Cand now we start discussion on what this article is supposed to be aboutj grew in stature as its line matured in strength and depth. A year ago, when the Crimson was Ivy co- champion, the Harvard line was the best in the League, practically from the beginning of the season. The only problem was develop- ing a backfield that could take advantage of the forward defenses. This year the situation was reversed. Coach John Yovicsin had what many thought to be the strongest back- field in modern Harvard history, but only three lettermen returned to the line. When the season ended, Yovicsin was saying he preferred a brilliant line to a dazzling back- held and speculated that a really fine line could make even mediocre backs look good. At mid-season, when it appeared that the Crimson might have trouble winning five of its nine games, the coach occasionally talked about his 'fbacks not coming through for us like they should. But as soon as 193 FALL SPORTS protection became a certainty, the backiield began to fulhll expectations. At the beginning of the season, Yovicsin was a man of constant sorrow. During the summer he and his coaching staff drew care- ful plans for developing a line from a flock of .I.V. and sophomore hopefuls. But these plans had to be temporarily shelved soon after pre-season drills opened. Each day produced new injuries, and by the time undergraduates began to drift back to Cam- bridge for registration Yovicsin's daily charts showed a total of 32 men on the injury list, many of them lettermen. Yovicsin began to wonder if he would have any kind of team to field. Most of the major backtield players were missing prac- tices, and men who were supposed to be- come starting linemen after the September practices watched the proceedings from the sidelines wrapped in tape and encased in plaster. After the squad lost a scrimmage with Tufts the coach, for the first time in his six years at Harvard, scheduled a third week of daily double practice sessions. When Lehigh arrived at the Stadium for the first game of the season, the greyness of the sky was matched only by the grim ex- pression on Yovicsin's face. But the clouds cleared, and Yovvy finally smiled, faintly. The gay opening day crowd in the Stadium had the first laughs, however, when Harvard took the kick-off, moved the ball easily through confused Lehigh defenders to the Engineers, 35 yard line, and fumbled. A magnificent Harvard fumble of Lehigh's first punt a few moments later encouraged the thought that while the Crimson might not always prevail in 1962, it would lose in inter- esting ways. Fortunately these first day jitters soon disappeared. Harvard avoided blowing its lead Cas it did in 1961 with such compli- cated maneuvers as handing off to the oppo- sitionj, and the Crimson finished the day with a 27-7 victory. The merriment in the locker room after the game was the last the Crimson enjoyed for three weeks. Every year Harvard must cope with a schedule guaranteed to add new lines to Yovicsin's forehead. This season the schedule was particularly unkind. Cornell, Holy Cross, Columbia and Dartmouth were the October opponents, and Yovicsin was certain the month would prove unpleasant. Privately he expressed the fear that his boys Mike' Bassett fades back be- hind the blocking of Fred Bartl C301 and Walt Do- brzelecki C621 for one of his infrequent passes. might win only one of the four games. The fear was justified. Nobody knew what to expect from the Big Red. The Ithacans were led by Gary Wood, perhaps the lvyls best quarterback, and they appeared to be a team capable of causing trouble. But while Harvard toyed with Lehigh, Cornell lost to Colgate. That Colgate loss was deceptive: Cornell proved several times during the fall that it had a team able to beat anyone if it played up to its abilities. Against Harvard, Cornell played good football and was rewarded with a 14-12 win. The Crimson's loss, which ended a six-game winning streak, was acutely de- pressing. Harvard's line displayed compe- tence and toughness despite its inexperience, and a Crimson field goal attempt on the gamels last play was but six inches wide of three points and victory. After the Ithaca encounter the weaknesses that had been feared in pre-season planning became problems of major proportions. And these difliculties confronted Yovicsin throughout the season. The line, while show- ing occasional brilliance, was not yet depend- able or sufficiently staffed. The first unit had possibilities, but there was no second unit and this meant trouble. A consistently strong reserve line didnlt materialize until 194 November. Another flaw was the lack of variety in the offensive attack. While Har- vard had shown it could move the ball on the ground, it was clear that passing was a lost art at Cambridge. Yovicsin's original plan was to have Mike Bassett concentrate heavily on ground plays with his unit and then use Terry Bartolet for passing maneuvers. Bait- olet, having missed a season of play, was a bit rusty at the start of the season, and this was compounded by a shoulder injury which restrained his throws. With the Crimson therefore limited to ground plays, Yovicsin began to fear opponents would risk using eight-man lines against him. Finally, Har- vard fans realized that their team's backtield was not doing the job everyone thought it could. Part of this was due to injuries. Bill Grana, an all-Ivy fullback in his sophomore year, was plagued all season with a painful back. Scott Harshbarger, a mighty line half- back when fit to play, wrenched his knee in the Lehigh game, and Hobie Armstrong, who was supposed to provide a long run threat from the halfback slot, aggravated an old thigh injury early in the season. But injuries did not completely explain the slugishness in Harvard's offensive motion. Despite his back Bill Grana charged valiantly off tackle-he found no holes. Bassett ex- Ed Smith 1781, Hobie Arm- st1'ong 1401, Charlie Kessler 1661, Bill Grana 1341, and Mike Bassett 1231 block for the Crimson's Bill Taylor 1121. ecuted smooth hand-offs to halfback, but they had no place to run. And when Bassett or anyone else tried to pass, downlield vision was diminished by gangs of enemy tacklers. Cornell gave Yovicsin's men a taste of what the lack of two lines would meang Holy Cross rubbed it in. Against clearly superior forces the Crimson fought with admirable courage, but the Crusaders had too much weight, skill and depth to be denied their quest. While Harvard backs were forced to execute plays rapidly, Holy Cross quarterback Tom Mc- Carthy displayed his impressive running and passing techniques with the aid of an im- movable line of defense. The reign of McCarthyism in the Stadium brought Holy Cross a 34-20 victory, but Yovicsin was not a gloomy man, for in the second half of the contest, Harvard became a football team. The weeks of work on the lines began to show, and when the coaches inspected the game films they were sure they had a team that was going places. Walt Dobrzelecki, Ernie Zissis, Chuck Kessler and Bill South- mayd had started to come through at guard with tough effectiveness. Brad Stephens, a junior with little experience, had begun to display the skill that eventually earned him second team all-Ivy honors. The tackle slot was still thin with only first unit men Ed Smith and Dick Diehl being consistent, but an ends corps built around all-Ivy Dave Hudepohl, Tom Stephenson, and Pat Young was beginning to contribute substantially to the defense. Offensive blocking improved steadily. Yovicsin now needed to install con- fidence and improve backfield precision. After seeing Holy Cross films, Yovicsin thought he had a football team, but he wasn't sure. Proof came a week later at Columbiais Baker Field, when the Crimson demolished the Lions with a stunning 36-14 conquest. For the first time in the season every part of Harvard's game was working. Quarterback Archie Roberts, Columbia's Harvard-hating boy wonder, became thoroughly familiar with the taste of the turf as the Crimson line crashed through continually to flatten the cocky passer for major yard losses. Hank Hatch was Hnally able to make use of his great speed on punt returns. Bassett, with signincant contributions from Grana and Bill Taylor, swept his team along with a variety of ground plays and even a few strategic passes. Bartolet's unit, with Harshbarger and sophomore Tom Bilodeau sparking, was just as effective. With Columbia vanquished, Harvard re-entered the Ivy championship race. To stay in contention, however, a victory over Dartmouth was essential. The week of preparationfor the Big Green was tense. On Monday, President Kennedy announced the Cuba quarantineg the thoughts of most students were far from the football field and the blockade Dartmouth had suc- cessfully maintained against four opponents. 195 Bob Hageback blocks a Le- high punt. The Crimson re- tumed the ball for a touch- down on this play. Actually, the football practice field was about the only place of sanity in the University. Everywhere else people began living their lives as if every day might be the last. When the Russian ships approached the naval blockade, life seemed to stop all over the campus as the minutes went by. But down on the field life went on as usual. Russia's ships turned back, Adlai Steven- son prepared to wait until 'ihell freezes overi' for a satisfactory explanation of the Cuban missile sites, and on Saturday, Dartmouth beat Harvard 24-6. Everyone expected the Indians to be resourceful, and Bob Blake- manis team displayed their might mercilessly and swiftly. Before many fans found their seats Dartmouth moved 63 yards to the Har- vard 17. The Crimson line suliciently re- formed itself at that point to prevent further advances, but a successful field goal gave the Green the lead. Fans in the stands were perhaps scared by the power of Dartmouthis attack, but the team came back immediately. Bill Grana 196 and Hobie Armstrong alternated carries and Harvard found itself with a fourth and one to go on the Green 32. Had Hobie been able to get through tackle on the next play the Crimson might have gone on to score, win the game, and tie for the Ivy League crown. He didn't. Dartmouth picked up a touch- down in the second quarter and its three unit line withstood Crimson attacks. Although never closing the gap, Harvard did provide the home fans with a moment of excitement late in the game when Bassett passed through two defenders to Bill Taylor. The well-covered Taylor slipped past his enemies and dashed for the end zone, where he scored the first touchdown of the year against Dartmouth by any team. As far as Harvard was concerned the Ivy Title race was over with the Dartmouth contest, but the Ivy season had only passed the half-way mark. On the next Saturday heavy rains and the Pennsylvania football team arrived at the Stadium. Both were quelled by the precision and vigor of the Harvard assault on the field. Against all laws of football logic, both teams threw the ball vigorously against rain- heavy gusts of wind that criss-crossed the field. The two teams used the same approach to the problem of aerial attack: both Har- vard and Penn quarterbacks threw to Har- vard ends and halfbacks. At the end of the game Mike Bassett was only slightly more successful than his opponents. He connected on seven passes to Crimson receivers, Penn completed only six tosses to Harvard. Penn was a wonderful ego-builder for the Crimson team. The Quaker line faded into the mud before the relentless Harvard line- men and the driving winds. Bassett's passing arm finally developed full strength, and Pat Young emerged as a top-notch receiver and a formidable defensive end. Bill Grana ran with authority for perhaps the first time of the season, and his blocking was better than ever. Hobie Armstrong scored his first touch- down of the year. The following Monday, however, Yovicsin released some disturbing information: the Penn game, while a blast, had been an ex- pensive one. Charles Kessler, a bruising guard who rarely attracted attention but also rarely missed his block, re-injured his knee in the first quarter, Harshbarger also ag- gravated an old injury. These disclosures were buffered by the heartening news that other players injured earlier in the season were once again on the practice field. End Tom Stephenson's fractured rib had healed, and for the rest of the season he, Young, and All-Ivy Dave Hudepohl gave the squad a first line end squad that compared favorably with any in the League. Guards Walt Dobrzelecki and Bill Southmayd returned after the Penn game, and their names were frequently praised throughout the rest of the season for alert, hard-driving action. The Pennsylvania skirmish was a brilliant display of Harvard's now rapidly maturing team, the Princeton contest was a more magnificent performance. The team reached heights of precision and skill not seen for some time, making the 20-0 score seem al- most kind to the Tigers. But now about all anyone remembers of that wonderful day was a single play. Early in the second quarter Mike Bassett rolled out on his own 19 yard line looking for a receiver. None was to be found, only a lot of Princetonians hotly pursuing Bassett. He slipped by a few tacklers to his right sideline, then cut back across the field. Zig- zagging uncannily, he gradually made his way downfield through the entire Princeton student body to the Tiger 20, where a lone student Prince finally brought him down E Q E 5 !

Five plays later Bill Grana scored the touchdown that put Harvard be- yond reach. Princeton's only serious attempt to move the ball was terminated by Hudepohl. Greg Riley, the Tigers' renowned tailback, faded back on his own 49 to pass. But before he could release the ball Hudepohl crashed through the line and into Riley. The ball rolled loose and Hudepohl continued on his way, beating the confused Riley to the pig- skin on the Princeton 30. Vague talk of the need for a new coach filled the Princeton stands. Everyone expected that the Crimson, now playing the best football in the Ivy League and possibly the East, would have no trouble with Brown the following Satur- day, and it did not. Perhaps because the challenge was not too severe, the team did not display the great skill that had marked the Princeton game, but team cohesiveness was compensated for by the brilliance of Bill Taylor, who set a University record and tied an Ivy League mark by scoring four touch- downs in one game. Taylor had been a major ligure in the Harvard attack all season, but it wasn't until the Brown and Yale games that his contribu- tions to the team were overpowering. He started the season a bit slowly, having re- ceived a head injury in pre-season drills. By the time of the Dartmouth encounter he was running with the skill that brought him second team all-Ivy honors in his junior year. 198 In the last two games this season he staged a virtual one-man show, and at the end of the year his teammates had little trouble deciding he was the teamls most valuable player. After the 31-19 win over Brown, Coach Yovicsin announced that the first half of the season was over. When Yovicsin came to Harvard from the wilds of Gettysburg six years ago, he couldnlt understand what was so all fired big about the Yale game, anyway. As far as he was concerned, Yale was just another team. But this year Yovicsin admit- ted that The Game was in a class of its own. It constituted a separate season just in itself. The Crimson started the second half of the season in much better shape than it had begun the first. Yovicsin had two depend- able lines to work with, and in the Brown game it had seemed as if a third was on the way. Bassett, Grana, Armstrong, and Taylor were working efficiently in the backiield, with a second unit of Bartolet, Harshbarger, Bilodeau, and Fred Bartl almost as good. Dick Diehl, as captain, had put so much spark in the team than an unknowing ob- server at practices would have thought the team was shooting for the Rose Bowl. Just before The Game, the loudspeaker at the Stadium told the capacity crowd that President Kennedy had cancelled his sched- uled visit because of the intense cold and the threat of snow. The Yale fans went wild. This was about the only cheer heard from the stands of the Blue throughout the after- noon, however, as the Crimson prevailed with a 14-6 conquest of its ancient rival. The win was the second straight over the Elisg it insured Harvard's second consecutive Big Three championship, nailed down second place in the Ivy League, and gave the team a fine 6-3 record for the year. Yale was unexpectedly rugged defensively, forcing Bassett and his boys to fight hard for every yard. Once again the hero of the day was Taylor, who contributed as much with his clutch punting under heavy pressure as with his ball carrying. Minutes before the end of the game he was injured, but by then his work was finished. Harvard had its victory secure. Yet Taylor didn't and couldn't do it alone. Grana, who was injured early in the game, was extremely important in the negotiations for Harvardis first touch- down. Linemen Diehl, Stephens, Ed Smith, and Frank Ulcickas were tough when the backfield needed them. Diehl and Smith, in fact, made the tackle slot 1throughout the season one of the questionable areas on the linej into a bulwark of strength on Yale afternoon. The only tense point in the contest came in the third quarter. Yalie John Cirie took a Taylor punt on his own 41 and innocently headed up the field. He was generally ignored by the Harvard team, which was furiously blocking several Yalies on the other side of the field. Smith tried to tackle Cirie eventually, but succeeded only in blocking out two other Crimson jerseys. Cirie quietly continued on his way and tightened the score to 7-6, Harvard. Then, in what was perhaps the crucial play of the game, Ulcickas and Smith broke through the Yale line and stopped the two point conversion attempt almost before it started. Harvard's Fred Bartl finished a drive Taylor had started in the fourth quarter before leaving the game on a stretcher, and that completed the scoring for the day. In the final minutes Yale had a chance to come back, but the New Haven squad spent most of the last-chance interlude on time-consuming ground plays that went nowhere. At the sound of the final gun a Crimson newsboy left the newspaper ofices for the Stadium with an extra edition on the Game. 1A previous Crimson extra had appeared 20 minutes after the last play of the Dartmouth game.D Five minutes after fans began to receive their post-game Crimson's, a tiny, pre-set extra edition of the Yale Daily News began coming off a clandestine press hidden in a station wagon in the Stadium parking lot.

All the Crims0n's type had been set during the Game, with reporters calling in the action as it occurred. Only one line of type was changed in the Yale effort fthe scorej, which was printed on Friday in New Haven-and the Harvard paper was still available to the fans faster. Thus the season ended happily, and Yovicsin smiled frequently when discussing the exploits of his squad. He had brought them a long way since the days of double practice sessions during registration-so far that he was able to say there were few better teams he had coached. But the season-ending honors sessions were not quite so happy. Ed Smith and Dave Hudepohl were the only Harvard men on the official all-Ivy team. Bill Taylor was once again relegated to the second squad in favor of Roberts, the boy wonder of Baker's Field. Grana and Stephens were also second team selections. In the last meeting of the squad, Taylor was voted the Frederick Greeley Crocker Award and center Jim Beery the William Paine LaCroix award for sports- manship, loyalty, and team spirit. And, with minds already turning towards the next carn- paign, Bill Southmayd was selected to suc- ceed Captain Dick Diehl. 200 Front row: McCurdy fcoachj, Huvelle, Anscheutz, D'Arcy.

CROSS COUNTRY In eleven years of coaching Harvard cross- country teams, Bill McCurdy has compiled a distinguished record: his harriers have cap- tured four Ivy championships, and have never finished lower than third. This year he made two experienced men and a lot of sophomores into a team that won eight meets, lost only one, and finished second in the Heptagonal championships. McCurdy had two brilliant runners re- turning: Capt. Ed Hamlin and junior Eddie Meehan. Backing them up was a crop of sophomores, led by Bill Crain, who with Hamlin and Meehan was to form the Crim- son's big three. Prospects for the squad depended on how well these three could off- set the inexperience of the rest. The team won its first seven meets, in- cluding narrow upsets of strong Cornell and Brown squads. Though Hamlin, Meehan, and Crain ran consistently, and the other sophomores showed promise, the winning times were generally slow, and the tough end of the schedule lay ahead: the'Big Three meet with Yale and Princeton to close the regular season, and the Heptagonals. The Big Three meet was rated as a tossup: Yale's harriers were led by the supposedly unbeatable Bobby Mack, and Princeton, with seven strong starters, had the edge in depth. 201 But when the race started over the tough Van Cortland track, it was all Ed Hamlin. The Crimson captain ran the race of his career, his time of 24:17 clipped 30 seconds off the course record, and beat Mack by 11 seconds. Crain took third for Harvard, and Meehan, despite a stomach cramp, took sixth. Unfortunately, though Hamlin was too much for Mack, Princeton as a team was too much for Harvard. Seven Tigers crossed the line before the fifth Crimson run- ner, giving Princeton the slimmest of vic- tories, 28-29. Yale Hnished third. The story was repeated at the Heptagon- als. Hamlin again ran brilliantly and finished first, Meehan and Crain followed in the fourth and sixth positions. But by the time the next Crimson harrier had crossed the line in the 32nd spot, Navy had captured enough of the middle positions to edge by Harvard and win the meet. Harvardls 8-l record was a fine one, and the achievement is even greater when most of the team's inexperience is considered. Yet it is also unfortunate that Harvard missed an undefeated season by so little. It takes five men to win in cross-country, a fact which plagued the Crimson in the Big Three and Heptagonal meets. Hamlin, Meehan, and Crain ran brilliantly, Hamlin's Big Three performance recalled the great Mullin-Mack duels of past years. But in the two big meets, the necessary middle-position support was lacking. However, with most of the team returning and a strong freshman team to draw on, look for more winning teams from Coach McCurdy. The Big Three jog to a first place tie against Dart- mouth: Bill Crain, Ed Hamlin, and Eddie Meehan Nigerian star Chris Ohiri s great scoring potential was thwarted by a three and four man defense against him throughout the season. SOCCER In a bewildering combination of brilliance and mediocrity, the 1962 Harvard soccer team tied for the Ivy League championship, but could manage only a 6-5 season record. Crimson sports fans become very disturbed when a collection of athletes like this year's soccer squad can score only one goal against the Little Three, and is shut out four times in a season. ln this collection, we must men- tion hrst Christian Ohiri, who was described by the Boston Herald's George Frazier as one whom the gods blessed with special skills . . . fleet as an eland and splendid with slight-of-foot. In the same article, Mr. Fra- zier says, soccer is so chic-because of boys like him fOhiriJ, fearless and flashing and full of the mystery of exotic, faraway lands. Presumably this ecstatic prose refers to Har- vard's Emannuel Boye and Ebenezer Klufio from Ghana and to Captain Tony Davies from County Wicklow, Ireland, Wherever the players came from, they formed a line group of athletes-as fine as Harvard is likely to see for many seasons. Why then did the team achieve only qualified glory? One of the team's problems was quickly 202 seen to be injuries. At one time or another throughout the season, Ohiri, John Thorn- dike, Mike Kramer, Louis Williams, Terry Winslow, Klufio, and Coach J. Bruce Munro were on the injury list. A second problem-one which tends to be crucial for a soccer team-was an inabil- ity to put the ball through the opponents' goal. Take the Amherst game in which the Crimson controlled the ball most of the game. Harvard's superior passing and drib- bling was apparent, but the scoring punch was lacking. This was largely due to the four-man box which the Amherst defense formed around center-forward Ohiri, who took only one shot the entire game-one- eighth of the team's total. The following week against Wesleyan, the Crimson again controlled the ball the entire third period-with no score. In this contest, reliable fullback, Louis Williams, was play- ing with seventeen stitches in his right knee, and Ohiri sat on the bench with his chroni- cally pulled groin muscle and an injured ankle. Only a brilliant save by Crimson goalie, Wally Whitney, prevented a first-minute Wesleyan goal. Early in the first period, a picture goal slipped by Whitney, but the Crimson defense Hnally hardened and al- lowed only one more goal. Harvard's closest scoring attempt came on a pass from Klufio to inside Sam Thompson, but the shot barely missed. A third Crimson problem was very ap- parent after the Wesleyan shut-out: without Chris Ohiri, there would be very little scor- ing for Harvard. In the very first game of the season, Harvard defeated Tufts 4-0. Ohiri scored three of these goals and, more disturbing, took eleven of the thirteen Har- vard shots in the first half. The following game against Cornell, played in the mud and rain, Ohiri scored all four Harvard goals. One of these goals deserved special mention. A shot by another Harvard player was de- flected by the Cornell goalie and rolled under Ohiri's legs. He had his back to the goal at that moment, but whirled to his left and smashed the ball into the net before the startled Cornell goalie had even recovered from his privious effort. Unfortunately, this brilliant four-goal performance, which brought Ohiri within four goals of the Ivy scoring record, augured ill for the team. Opponents soon learned that to contain Ohiri was to nullify Harvard's threat, and soon Ohiri found two or three defensemen hover- ing around him wherever he went. Against Williams, Coach Munro was pleased to see someone else on the team taking some shots. Steve Sewall and Mike Kramer had three shots each stopped by a fine Williams goalie, and Ohiri scored once on twelve shots. After the disastrous Amherst and Wes- leyan shutouts, Harvard was still on the top of the Ivy League with a 1-0 record, but a demoralized team was asking itself if it had the ferocity and drive to win. A victory over Columbia was necessary to keep up with Yalels three straight wins. But the forward line of Ohiri at center forward, Al Chang and John Thorndike at insides, and Eb Klu- fio and Mike Kramer at wing position came through with a well-balanced scoring effort. Ohiri scored the first two goals. One of these was on a gentle, perfectly-placed penalty kick past the frightened Columbia goalie. Columbia retaliated with a goal by a former Nigerian high-school mate of Ohiri. Then the rest of the Harvard line, which in the past had concentrated on passing to Ohiri, showed its own scoring punch. John Thorn- dike booted one by from close range, then Eb Klufio at right wing took a long floating pass from fullback, Lou Williams, settled the ball with a few dribbles, and shot it into the corner. This 4-2 victory kept Harvard in a tie with Yale for the Ivy crown. Following this heartening victory, the team headed up to Dartmouth, where they were greeted by inhospitable 25 mph winds and 300 temperatures. This game contained examples of all three Harvard difficulties. They controlled the ball all the first half but did not score, injuries handicapped Ohiri and Williams, and with Ohiri slowed, no one else could score. In a scramble around the Harvard goal, a shot went clean past Whitney, who couldnit even see what was going on. A second Dart- mouth goal was scored on a corner kick, which may be attributable to Lou Williams' absence. In a collision earlier in the game both Williams and his opponent had retired from the field to get ten stitches each over the eye. Meanwhile, All-Ivy goalie Dave Smoyer parried every Harvard drive. Harvard now had a 2-1 record in Ivy League play C3-4 overallb and the upcoming game with Pennsylvania was a must win. For this game, Coach Munro made some startling, though logical, shifts in the lineup. Ohiri was moved to right wing, where he could more easily elude double-teaming tac- tics, sophomore Cormac O'Malley replaced him at center, and center half Tony Davies was moved to inside to provide the lacking scoring punch. Unfortunately, these shifts were largely nullified by the hard rain and wind, as well as by the unbreakable Penn defense. The Harvard defense was weak- ened by the shift of Davies, so Penn skidded two slippery goals past Wally Whitney. They followed these with two more, which were almost unavoidable, since the Crimson was going all out to score-purposely neglecting the defense. 203 Front row Falrbalrn Churchill Williams, Davies QCaptainJ, Kramer, Chang, Thomdike. Middle row: Munro tCoachJ, 0'Malley, Cochran, Terrell Whitney Sewall Gifford Larkin fManagerJ. Back row: Franklin, Thompson, Hitzig, Clattenburg, Winslow, Coburn, Whitman. This was the low point of the 1962 sea- son. Harvard could now hope for little more than the Big Three title. Ohiri was reinjured and the problem of defense without Tony Davies at half-back appeared insoluble. Luckily, Princeton put on one of the weakest displays of soccer in recent seasons. With an impotent oifense and a leaky defense, the Tigers were an easy target. Hustling Cormac 0'Malley put in two goals and received an assist on a third. John Thorndike also col- lected two goals. Meanwhile, Wally Whitney made only one difficult save in the closing seconds of the 7-0 rout. The Brown contest was notable for noth- ing but excellent Harvard defense and one goal by Ohiri which tied the Ivy League scoring record of eight. If Harvard could win the Yale game, it could back into the Ivy Title with Penn, which had finished the season with a tie against Cornell. The Yale contest was generally sloppy. The second Harvard goal was on a penalty kick, and the last was obligingly kicked by a Yale defenseman. Nevertheless, Tony Dav- ies, in his last game for the Crimson, directed a brilliant defense. And Chris Ohiri finally broke two League scoring records: the two year mark of 29 and the season mark of eight-both by two goals. A final interesting 204 feature of the contest was Bruce Munro's temporary blinding after blundering into the timer's blank gun. The soccer team inally conquered its three initial difficulties. Most important, it learned how to use the talents of Ohiri with- out depending exclusively on the star Ni- gerian. Except for the Princeton rout, the team was unable to run up high scores, but in just enough of the games, just enough Harvard shots succeeded. Not a great sea- son but one which included a share in the Ivy crown, 1962 is now finished. With Louis Williams, one of the College's all-time great athletes, as captain, 1963 should be at least as successful.

And they were right. Starting the season slowly, the Varsity steadily improved under the su- perb coaching of Ralph uCooney Weiland and climaxed their season with a thrilling overtime victory over arch-rival Boston Col- lege in the finals of the Eastern College Ath- letic Conference Tournament at the Boston Arena. The victory gave the Crimson first place in Eastern college hockey. The team also copped its third consecutive Ivy League title and was victorious in the Boston Arena Christmas Tournament. At the beginning of the season everyone knew that this yearls Harvard hockey team would have a good defense, perhaps the best in the East. The big question marks were the offense and the eligibility of Gene Kina- sewich, a forward who had been ruled in- eligible by the ECAC at the start of the season. The defense, returning intact from the 1961-62 team, was led by All-American Dave Johnston, Harry Howell, Mike Patter- son, and Ron Thompson. In the goal the Crimson sported Godfrey Wood, who had played in the shadow of Bob Bland for two years and had been rated as the finest sec- ond-line goalie in the country. Only tive forwards were left from the 1961-62 squad which had taken third place in the ECAC tournament and only three of them had played regularly. Captain Tim Taylor had been the second-leading scorer and Ike Ikauniks had been right behind him. Gerry Jorgenson had also played regularly, but Bill Lamarche and Bruce Thomas had seen only spot action. On December 12th the Kinasewich case came up before the Ivy Committee on Eli- gibility and, with Harvard fans tensely wait- ing, the ECAC reversed its ruling. The team started with victories over Colby and Boston University as the second line of Billy Lamarche, Barry Treadwell, and Baldy Smith led the attack. The first Northeastern game on the 12th of December marked the Senior Dick Blakey 1185 scores the first goal in Harvard's win over Boston College. return to action of Kinasewich and Gene led the squad to an 8-1 triumph. The Ivy League opener with Brown was the next contest for the sextet. The Bruins, usually the doormat of the League, mounted an unusually line effort and coupled two Crimson defensive lapses with a fine hat-trick performance by Terry Chapman to leave Watson Rink with a 4-4 tie. The team finished their pre-Christ- mas activity on the 19th of December at West Point where they were held to a 2-2 tie by an always-dangerous Army team, During the Christmas vacation, the Var- sity trounced Boston University and North- eastern in the first two rounds of the Arena Christmas Tournament. In the linal game of the tournament the sextet faced highly- rated Colorado College for the champion- ship. It was a well-played, hard-fought game right down to the wire. Harvard rallied from a two-goal deficit in the first period to tie the score at the end of regulation time, 2-2. Gene Kinasewich scored Harvardis iirst goal in the second period and Ike Ikauniks tied the game in the third. With 1:24 gone in the over- time, Billy Lamarch fired a beautiful slap shot through a defenseman's legs and into the nets for a Harvard win. Heading into the New Year, the sextet re- corded their iirst Ivy win of the season. Barry Treadwell's three goals led an 8-1 triumph over Cornell. But Johnston suffered an at- tack of mononucleosis and Harvard lost the services of its All-American defenseman for a full month. One week after the Cornell game, the team traveled to upstate New York to take on powerful Clarkson and St. Lawrence on con- secutive nights. On Friday, Harvard stayed within range of the Golden Knights of Clark- son for two periods, but fell behind 4-2 in the third frame. A iinal-minute tally by Tim Taylor made the score closer, but the game was out of reach. The following night at St. Lawrence, the loss of Johnston was felt more strikingly as the Skating Saints coasted to a 6-1 victory. Victories over Cornell and Dartmouth fol- lowed with Ikauniks, Kinasewich, and Taylor leading the scoring as the Varsity polished up for the Beanpot Tournament. The opening game of the Beanpot Tourna- ment at the Boston Garden put Harvard against Northeastern. Although the Crimson had thrashed the Huskies twice earlier in the season, 8-1 and 11-6, it took an overtime eiiort to pull out a 4-3 victory.

The final round of the tournament was the apex of the season for the Eagles of Boston College. They had been pointing for the game all season and before a sellout crowd in Boston Garden, they sent the Crim- son down to their last defeat of regular sea- son play. Gene Kinasewich scored midway through the first period, but B.C. tied the score early in the second. B.C. played in- spired hockey in the third period and scored twice for a 3-1 victory. A rejuvenated Harvard team faced the Williams game. Taylorls three goals and Blakey's pair sparked the sextet to a 6-3, come-from-behind victory. Three days later, Blakey's three goals paced a 6-1 triumph over Princeton. The return match with Bos- ton College on the 19th of February marked the squad's return to full strength. Before a standing-room-only crowd at Watson Rink, 207 Coach Weiland instructed the Kinasewich line to play a defensive game against the higly-rated iirst line of Boston College, which boasted two all-Americans in Billy Hogan and I ack Leetch. Ike Ikauniks put the Crim- son out in front at 3:05 of the lirst period, but B.C. tied the game very quickly. The second period was closely played, but Har- vard seemed to be getting the edge. At 1:49 of the third period, Baldy Smith took a Barry Treadwell pass and hit the cords for a Har- vard lead. Tim Taylor added an insurance goal less than two minutes later when he took a pass from Dave Johnston. Harvard then dropped back and played brilliant de- fensive hockey for the rest of the game and came away with a 3-1 victory. The Varsity then beat Yale, 6-5, and closed out their Ivy season with consecutive shutouts over Princeton, 5-0, and Yale in New Haven, 6-0. The team had finished their regular season with an 18-3-2 mark and their third consecutive Ivy title. The only thing that remained for the team was the ECAC tournament.

After a score- less first period, Harvard outscored Clarkson 5-4 in a wild second frame and added an insurance goal in the third. Gene Kinase- wich collected two goals, Tim Taylor scored two more, and Ike Ikauniks and Dick Blakey each tallied once. B.C. defeated St. Law- rence in the other semi-final game and the stage was set for the rubber game between the Eagles and the Crimson. Boston College jumped out to an early Center Gerry Jorgenson 1151 fights with B.C. defenseman for control of the puck. two goal lead in the Brst period. Harvard came right back in the second period to knot the score on goals by Baldy Smith and Kin- asewich. Kinasewich's score came on a full- length-of-the-rink breakaway. In the third period, Harvard went ahead as Kinasewich garnered his second goal of the night when he tipped in a Dave Johnson slap shot. The lead was short-lived, as I ack Leetch came right back and with the typing goal. The score was knotted at 3-3 and thatls where it stood at the end of regulation play. The Varsity withstood a penalty for too many men on the ice early in the overtime, and then Kinasewich took a pass from Johnston, skated around the whole Boston College team in a blinding burst of speed and put the puck past Eagle netminder Tom Aprille, for the winning goal. It was Kinasewichls third goal of the night and sixth of the tournament. Gene was voted the most valuable player of the tournament. Looking back over the season, the 21-4-2 record posted by the 1962-63 team is the a Harvard This is also best percentage recorded by hockey team in recent history. the third highest scoring team in Harvard history, ranking behind only years of 1956-57 and 1957-58. Taylor led all scorers with 39 points on 22 goals and 17 assists. He was followed closely by Billy Lamarche with 34 points and Gene Kinasewich and Ike Ikauniks with 32 points each. Barry Treadwell tallied 29 points and Baldy Smith garnered 28. Dave Johnston was next in the scoring totals with 25 points. Johnston registered his 25 points on 25 assists and set a Harvard record in this department. The graduating seniors will leave big holes in the team next year. Tim Taylor, Dick Blakey, and Gerry Jorgenson will be hard to replace on the forward wall. But the hardest hit department will be the defense, where Dave Johnston and Harry Howell, both three-year performers, end their ca- reers. Godfrey Wood leaves a big gap in the goal and Ron Thompson, the teamis best checking defenseman, also hangs up his skates. The present senior group leaves a 3 year legacy of 60 wins, 12 losses, and 4 ties. On the brighter side, Mike Patterson and John Daly return at defense. Patterson has played for two years and this year was named to the second-string all-Ivy team. Daly, only a sophomore, filled in ably this year and developed quickly during the season. The Lamarche, Treadwell, Smith line returns in- tact along with Gene Kinasewich, Ike Ikaun- iks, and Bill Fryer.

Although the Crimson lost its first Ivy match to Cornell, 19-14, the fine showing of the men in the top weight classes was encour- aging. Captain Bob Kolodny started with a victory in the 157 pound class, and Fred Pereira at 177 began to show the consistency which would mean a sure victory for the Crimson every meet. The following week brought a surprise victory over highly rated Columbia, last yearis Ivy champions. The match was tied five times until Bob Fastov, wrestling in the unlimited class, finally decisioned his unde- feated opponent to clinch the match. At the Eastern Intercollegiate Champion- ships, held at Annapolis this year, Harvardis Fred Pereira took seventh place. For an Ivy League team this is quite a creditable showing, since wrestling is a traditionally weak sport in the League. After beating Brown easily, the Crimson faced the second of the 'ipushoverl' teams- Yale. With a 4-1 record in the Ivy League Harvard needed the win at New Haven to insure a second place finish. Although Bob Fastov pulled in his usual win in the unlim- ited division, the meet's result was fore- shadowed by Fred Pereirais loss 12-4 and a near ping Pereira had lost only two matches all season. Harvard's Bruce Knapp surprised the crowd by tieing Yale's captain, Jon Bo- gert, who had been heavily favored. But this was the only pleasant surprise ofthe day, and the team went down to a disappointing defeat. In spite of this loss, Harvard did end up second in the League. Under next ycar's captain, Fred Pereira, and the many return- ing sophomores, Harvard will make a serious bid for Iirst place. The start of the 200 yard freestyle against Yale, swept by Yale's Dave Lyons Cane 31 and Charlie Mussman Gane 23. Crimson sophomore Dave Abramson Clane 41 took third as all three shattered the pool record. SWIMMING At the beginning of the season, swimming coach Bill Brooks had a problem. He had lost record-holders Bob Kaufmann and Bill Zentgraf, and no matter how well his team did, their record would have to be a let-down from I-Iarvard's undefeated season in 1961-2. Yalets phenomenal freshmen were now soph- omores, and nobody had much of a chance of keeping the National Championship Tro- phy out of New Haven. Princeton was start- ing the season with virtually the same squad that had amassed the highest total points in the Easterns the year before. And Army, with new talent from an outstanding plebe squad, promised to be almost as deadly a threat as Yale. No team in the East figured to challenge the Elis. But among Army, Princeton and Harvard a fierce battle for second place was shaping up. The Crimson faced Army very 210 early in the season, and since the service teams have a knack of getting into shape quickly, there was the possibility that the Crimson would find itself with a loss before Christmas. Harvard swimmers had lost only four meets in the last five years, never more than one a season since 1957-8 This year there was a chance that they could lose three and wind up fourth in the EISL. The traditional opener against Springfield never proves much, since Harvard always wins and swims mostly second stringers. But SpringHeld's 35 points were more than they usually escape with, and some statistics watchers felt the first meet a somewhat omi- nous portent. Suddenly the Crimson was thrown up against Army. Brooks publicly called the Crimson underdogs, but most ob- servers gave Harvard a slight edge. Dave Abramson and John Pringle sewed up the meet for Harvard, shattering three pool records and a University record in the process, and the Crimsonis hopes for second in the League had survived the first and most serious hurdle. Pringle accounted for three records and 15 points with a 2205.3 in the individual medley CArmy pool markj, a 2:08.6 in the backstroke fanother pool rec- ordj, and a 2:l7.8 in the breaststroke, shat- tering teammate Bill Chadsey's Harvard rec- ord of 2:2l.9. Abramson easily won the 500 yard freestyle, and in the 200 yard freestyle his time of l:5l.l gave the Crimson a third Army pool record. CBoth events were new this year.J Pringle and Abramson were to be the backbone of the team for the rest of the season. Both could swim near record times in at least three events, and both could be counted on to swim well with little or no rest. After Christmas vacation Navy became the Crimson's 13th consecutive victim, and once again Pringle and Abramson accounted for three pool records. Abramson's time of l:57.5 in the 200 wasn't quite up to his per- formance against Army, but his record of 5226.0 in the 500 was one of the best times in the nation. In the breaststroke Pringle erased one of Princeton great Gardiner Green's numerous records with a superb 2:l8.l clocking, again slightly slower than he had done against Army, but still the sec- ond fastest time in Harvard history. Cornell, Columbia, and Penn fell quickly, and the only excitement was the performance of the Crimsonls second line. Captain Alan Engelberg won the 100 free against Cornell, and Bill Chadsey was a double winner in the backstroke and individual medley against Columbia and Penn. Against Princeton things were not so easy, and it took 26 points from Abramson and Pringle to give Harvard the meet and save their winning streak at 17 meets. In the course of the meet the lead changed hands six times, and except for the diving Cwhere Harvard's Jeff Lewy could only manage a thirdj the center of the meet was a two-man exhibition. In the 200 yard freestyle Abram- son beat highly-touted Jed Graef in 1:53.l. Pringle followed by edging Dave Kennedy in the individual medley with a time of 2:07.1, as teammate Joe Stetz picked up a valuable third. Next Abramson, swimming the 100 for the second time in his college career, led Engelberg to a one-three finish in 50.5. Pringle picked up his second win of the day by edging Jim Grifiith in the but- terfly, with a time of 2:05.9. And it was Abramson's turn again. In his specialty, the 500 yard freestyle, the sophomore ace won easily in 5:28.3, as Steve Seagren finished Crimson ace John Pringle could swim near-record times in any event The Crimson had its strongest diving combination since Frank Gorman graduated in 1959. Senior Jeff Lewy tleftl was a consistent point-winner, while sophomore Danny Mahoney trightj rarely missed first place honors. Distance standout Dave Abram- son could be counted on for three tirsts against anyone but Yale. He holds Harvard records in the 220, the 440, the 200, and the 500. second for a Crimson sweep. But Pringle had not been able to pick up a ftrst in his last event. Called on to swim the backstroke after two gruelling races and only two min- utes rest, even the Crimson's iron man fell back into third, behind Tigers Graef and Cy Hornsby. Not even the efforts of Pringle and Abram- son could have salvaged the meet, however, if Brooks had not been able to save his top sprinters for the final relay. Dennis Hunter, Dave Bennett, Greg Skalinder, and Engel- berg led Graef to the finish by 10 yards for seven points in the final event for victory in the meet, and a guaranteed second place in the EISL. The meet with Brown the following week gave the Crimson swimmers a much-needed breather. But next came Yale. The powerful Bulldog varsity set six pool records and swept eight of eleven events to win an unexpected 67-27 revenge victory at the IAB pool, but the top performance of the day came from a Harvard man, freestyler Dave Abramson. In what Brooks called the greatest swim- ming race Ifve ever seen,', Abramson cut a phenomenal 8.5 seconds from his best time in the 500 yard freestyle to beat Eli favorite Lyn Straw. Abramson jumped to an early lead and held it for half the race before Straw made his bid. The Yale star pulled slightly ahead, but Abramson refused to fall more than half a body length behind. With 75 yards left to swim Abramson pulled even, but his turn was slow at the start of the final 50 yards, and Straw regained the lead. In a tremendous effort Abramson sprinted ahead in the last length to win by a touch. His time of 5105.2 established new University and pool records. Harvard had a second moment of greatness when Pringle and Bill Chadsey both upset Yale sophomore, Dale Kiefer, but most of the meet belonged to the Elis. Dave Lyons shattered the pool mark in the 200 yard freestyle with a clocking of 1:48.65 Townsend accounted for the record in the individual medley C2:03.3Dg Steve Clark loafed through the sprints but picked up a record in the butterfly t2:02.8lg Mike Austin broke Kaufmann's old record in the 100 yard freestyle C48.4jg and Roger Goett- sche added a new standard in the backstroke t2:01.2J. As if five records were not enough for one day, the Bulldogs added a sixth in the freestyle relay, and Steve Clark twho has done 46.8 in a flat hundredj didn't even bother to swim it. Garton, Mussman, Lyons, and Austin tossed off a clocking of 3:15.5, good enough by more than two seconds to erase the Harvard mark.

After a year in which the track squad won the Heptagonals and the Triangular meet, Coach Bill McCurdy could see little reason to alter his winning formula: to amass points in field events and, with some luck, win in running events. Each year, however, is dif- ferent, and the very success of Harvard made it a special target of other schools. Aware of the pitfalls of overconfidence, the track squad looked ahead to a year of hope and opportunity. The beginning of the season saw Harvard score impressive victories over M.I.T. Q82- 27J and Boston University C80-295 but these teams have lately been teething rings for Harvard, and Coach McCurdy used his front-line troops sparingly. Then came Army. In a very impressive and opportune vic- tory in the two mile relay, track captain Ed Hamlin led Harvard to a narrow victory C56-533 over the Cadets, but a victory which occasioned tumultuous celebration among the Harvardmen. Hamlinls victory in the last leg of the relay fthe last eventj came at a time when the Crimson was trailing Army by two points, Cand by twenty yards in the relayjg it provided the type of spark which helps ignite real team spirit. 214 The Army meet was the scene of a number of such clutch performances, which to- gether presaged well for the future. Aggrey Awori debuted on the varsity squad by tak- ing first place in the 60-yard high hurdles and the 60-yard dash, defeating Joe Alma- guer tdefending Heptagonal championj in the latter. He also placed second in the broad jump and ran as anchor leg for the mile relay team. Although Ed Hamlin and Ed Meehan were defeated in the mile by Bill Staub of Army, the Harvard distance aces proved their abilities in later events. They placed one-two in the thousand with Meehan set- ting a Harvard record of 231314. Meehan also kept Harvard in the two mile relay so that Hamlin was able to score his well-timed victory. In the hurdles, the Crimson, with Awori, Hank Hatch, and Jack Spitzberg, scored a sweep, a very impressive achievement con- sidering that Kent Allen, who placed fourth in the Heptagonals the preceding year, was shut out. 'fWe still need to have some things happen before we can go into the Big Three meet with any degree of confidence, said Coach McCurdy, and the field events at West Point were designed to give him some conndence. Art Doten won the 35-pound weight at 57' 8 , and Loren Clayman took second place with his best varsity throw-55' 2Mi . Chris Ohiri continued to bring success to Harvard with a win in the broad jump at 23' 11 , Awori and Peter Lamp completed a Crimson sweep with 22' 2M1 and 21' 9W . Art Croasdale, who was handicapped by a hand injury which also interfered with his participation last year, was limited to a sin- gle throw in the shotput. But that throw was 53' 6W , and handily took nrst place. Until Croasdale could fully recover, it was ex- pected that Tom I-Iolcome would be Har- vard's major hope in the shot. The next meet, against Brown, was an- other victory for the Crimson. The ,victory was so sweeping that the Harvard squad cap- tured every event except the 1,000, the pole vault, and the two mile relay. Art Doten threw his first 60-footer in the 35-pound weight, winning the event with 60' HW . Since his brother Stan holds the Harvard record in the event, they comprise probably the first brother combination to achieve the 60-foot mark. Awori set a new University record in the 40-yard high hurdles with 0511, just a bit ahead of Hank Hatch. In distance events, Eddie Meehan took a 4:12 mile, while Ed Crain won the two-mile with a 9:35:6. At the Boston A. A. Games, Awori was the big star, though he didn't take a iirst position. He was the only participant who was in two feature races, the hurdles and the dash. Additionally, the two events were run alternately, so that Awori found himself in a sequence of hurdles trials, dash trials, hur- dles semi-finals, dash semi-finals, hurdles finals, dash finals, all this within an hour demonstrated Awori's capacity in reserve. The hurdles linals included Hayes Jones, the world's top hurdler of the moment. Al- though Awori managed to take only second place, he was nevertheless leading the iield at the iirst hurdle. As Boston Globe sports editor Jerry Nason remarked, Never have I seen anyone beat Jones to the nrst hurdle. Back to the starting line. Awori was once more facing a strong complement of men, including Jerry Ashworth of Dartmouth, Awori placed second Cbehind Ashworthj, but, again, he beat a number of impressive stars. By the end of the Games the audience was very familiar with Aggrey Awori, and his good showings in both events pointed to a continued position for him in the public eye. Coach McCurdy was faced with a Solo- mon's choice as the season progressed.

While originally McCurdy had con- templated dividing the squad into two de- partments and wage a two-front war, he later changed his plans, feeling that the Dartmouth meet would be important as an opportunity for the team to work L'together in preparation for the formidable Big Three match. Thus, with a 13 point lead from the Held events in the Greater Bostons, McCurdy withdrew to Hanover and easily defeated the Dartmouth team C69-401, however, back at Boston, Harvard slipped to a third place position. Awori set a new Dartmouth cage record in the 60-yard high hurdles 17.45, but was edged out in the dash by his perennial opponent, Ashworth. Harvard also performed well against Holy Cross C68-415, Awori and Ohiri in particular starred. Unfortunately, the mile tandem of Hamlin and Meehan was beaten by Charlie Buchta with an impressive stretch sprint for a time of 421519. The next big contest was the Big Three meet between Harvard, Yale, and Princeton. Harvard, defending champion, was able to outscore the formidable and much feared Yale squad and to completely obliterate the outclassed Princeton contingent C61W: 56W: 191. Although notice must be taken of Ham- lin in the two mile relay C7:52:5J and Doten and Croasdale in the 35-pound event, the real star of the meet was undoubtedly Awori, who scored in the broad jump f24'5Mi J, the 60-yard high hurdle f07:ll, and the 60- yard dash C06:3D, each a record. In fact, tif- teen old records were shattered at this meet. The victory of Harvard in the Big Three meet was in itself the mark of another good year for the Crimson. The Heptagonals went well for Awori, but not too well for Harvard. The Crimson failed to repeat its hairbreadth performance of the preceding year and a greatly improved Army team managed to edge Harvard from the top spot, though the Crimson held to second place CSIW to 46J. Whatever dis- appointment was inherent in this result was offset by the spectacular showing which Awori made. He became the first individual in the history of the Heptagonals to win three events. He won the broad jump C23' 51A l, the 60-yard dash C06:lD, and the 60- yard hurdles 1071045 and also was the lead- off leg of the winning mile relay at 3:21:9, a meet record. In spite of the disappoint- ment in failing to repeat last yearls achieve- Awori set a new indoor record in the broad jump. Jack Spitzberg was a standout in the high jump and the hurdles. ment, it was a good day for Harvard and a triumphant day for Awori. Awori also won the 60 yard hurdles in the IC4A Track and Field Championships with a time of 7.3, but failed in his bid to continue his triple victoryi' habit. But surely one of the most outstanding features of this year's track season was AWori's blossoming as a much talented athlete who could cop a variety of events. It is especially encourag- ing in View of Awori's role in the future track squads of the next two years. Coach McCurdy can have good reason to be satisfied with this year's results. The team was immaculate in its individual contests and kept possession of the Big Three champion- ship for the third successive year. If loss of the Heptagonal crown was a disappointment, it was tempered by the closeness of Har- vard's defeat. The year was also successful in the recruitment of new talent, among which Awori is the most brilliant example, which will help the Crimson maintain the high standards of its track squad.

B A S K E T B A L L Despite the new offense, a new defense, and some good veteran players, the Harvard bas- ketball team had a poor season, inishing in sixth place in the Ivy League with an overall Captain Gene Augustine moves in for the basket. record of six wins and 15 losses. PCIfO1'II1- ance was well below the potential of the team, pointing up the continuing disappoint- ment of Harvard basketball. Basketball is never an outstanding sport at Harvard, it fails to attract the imagina- tion of the fans, as shown by the low attend- ance for games at the IAB. In 59 seasons of Ivy League play, Harvard has yet to win the championship, the team has finished sixth for three straight years. This year, no one expected the Crimson to be in conten- tion, but the return of several of last year's stars and new faces from a good freshman team gave the faithful some hope. Returning to Coach Floyd Wilsonis squad were two Hne senior forwards, Pete Kelly and Denny Lynch, both of whom had aver- aged over l3 points a game the year before. The backcourt was headed by Captain Gene Augustine, a fiery guard and the team's best defensive player. Junior for ward Bob t'Stork Inman had seen only limited action, but had height and an accurate push shot. .-wwwm-maaw-waw, vf-.- M amw4w4W.f:'WewH-vmwwf..4-,mi-M,'1.. 5-1 - ,..- sf- --e- f.'.zf-,,-f f.:-z,-,,. . , Q-.,ey34 Senior center Vern Strand had led the un- defeated JV's with a 16-point averageg jun- ior forwards Fran Martin and Len Strauss were competent reserves. There were also several good sophomores: the best were guard Leo Scully and center Merle McClung. Scully, with a fast pair of hands, a good jump shot, and great driving ability, had led the freshman team in scor- ing. McClung had size and weight, and was a good ball-handler and close-in shot. Both Harvard's offensive and defensive patterns had received a good deal of blame for recent losing seasons, so Coach Wilson discarded the Drake shuiflel' and the shift- ing man-to-man in favor of a 1-2-2 zone de- fense, more elfective under the basket, and the California offense. This was basically a three-forward otfense, with forwards set- ting up the plays around the key, it compen- sated for the lack of a big center, and stressed the individual ball-handling and shooting ability that the old defense was supposed to have stifled. Execution of the new patterns, however, was hampered by a fractured bone in Augustine's foot, sulfered early in prac- tice, which prevented Gene from working out the new plays with the team. Harvard lost four of its first live games, beating only weak Tufts. The team had some good moments, playing three line quar- ters against superior Boston College, worse than the 57-45 loss was a serious ankle in- jury to Stork Inman, which was to disable him until almost the end of the season. Bright spots in a dismal picture were steady performances by Strand, who led the team in scoring, and Scully, whose passing made the offense go. Before Harvard left for the Evansville Holiday Tournament, the team suffered a serious loss, as Pete Kelly gave up basketball to concentrate on his studies. Though Kelly had not come near his performance of the year before, he still represented the highest scoring potential on the team. At hrst, how- ever, it seemed are placement had been found in Len Strauss, who gathered 27 points and 12 rebounds in Harvard's two tournament losses. The Ivy League race, which Harvard now entered, was in its usual state of anarchy, with four teams taking turns in the lead. Defending Champion Yale started fast, but cooled off when Rick Kanninsky broke his wrist, on his return, the Elis finished strongly enough to tie for the championship. Princeton, the team that tied Yale and then beat the Elis in a playoff game, had Bill Bradley, the cool perfectionist who led the league in scoring.

Penn then came to Cambridge, newly-recovered Bob Inman led the Crimson to a halftime lead, but a Penn freeze that baffled the defense and Harvard's usual sec- ond-half swan dive gave Penn a slim 61-58 victory. The IAB bleachers were lilled, a rare oc- currence, when Princeton and Bill Bradley took the floor, and there was little doubt what the crowd came to see. Denny Lynch played a tight defense that held Superman scoreless from the floor for ll minutes, but got into foul trouble. Then Bradley started shooting, he hit on 13 of 16 floor shots, grabbed 14 rebounds, picked up many as- sists, and left to a two-minute ovation with 32 points. Princeton won 74-60. The two Yale games epitomized an season of frustration for Harvard basketball. In the first, Harvard led for the initial 35 minutes, but lost, 56-52. Fans held some hopes that Harvard, at home, would be able to spoil the Elis' chances for a tie for the champion- ship, and the Crimson started as it it would do just that. Merle McClung was having the greatest night of his career, stufling lay- ups and shooting fall-away jumpers, his per- formance, along with Inman's jump shots and Scully's ball-handling, gave Harvard a 60-48 lead with ten minutes left, and rhyth- mic stamping from the bleachers was herald- ing a big upset. Then the team choked, passes went astray, as the forwards tried to work the ball, and the guards missed the feeds that had been so crisp. Yale tied the score at 70-all, the overtime was anticlimac- tic, as a Yale stall and Kaminsky's foul shot gave the Elis the win, 80-76. McClung,s 27-point performance, however, set three season records for the Crimson, and his 15 rebounds were another record. Harvard played better ball than the record shows: had the last seven games been called after 30 minutes, the Crimson would have won four instead of one. But under pres- sure, the offense became a game of moving the ball, rather than moving men into scor- ing position, the defense was too often rigid, failing to adapt to different offensive pat- terns. It seemed too often as if maintaining the pattern was more important than winning the game. Every game is different in basket- ball, and every player is more or less effec- tive on different nights, the team that does not adapt itself to different game situations will have no chance gaainst equal or supe- rior opponents. The problems of flexibility, and of best utilization of individual skills, will trouble any type of pattern, until these problems are solved, individual excellence will not be enough to give Harvard winning basketball. Augustine takes a long shot. .,....--- - ., V! r.. fs i, V if . g i ' 3 j ag ' V wx ly if-I: ' ' ., .. v i I 'X X 1 H xx Q, fr f' , ' Z. X' 'SI I . , , V ,.,, .,.. V, . -V gl . , L.. . , . , .

SQUASH The varsity squash team had a tremendous, undefeated season, surpassing even the rec- ord of the Intercollegiate Championship team of last year. Retaining the Intercollegiate crown, it added the Massachusetts A League Championship and the United States Na- tional Championship. Vic Niederhotfer, playing at number one, moved decisively into the ranks of the nation's top amateur players by winning three major tournaments and making a strong showing in others. Coach Jack Barnaby '32, is rightly pleased with his men. As a preliminary match, the Crimson won over McGill University in Montreal, 6-3. They defeated M.I.T., Cornell, Amherst and Dartmouth without the loss of a single indi- vidual match, and Army, Penn, Williams and Princeton with the loss of but one each. The teamis victory over previously undefeated Yale marked their second straight unde- feated season. In the National Team Championships in Detroit, Harvard upset the defending cham- pion Philadelphia team, 3-2. In the finals against Canada, Lou Williams won a close match, and Doug Walter, although gashed on the chin by his opponent's racquet, held on to his lead to win in four games and give Harvard, the only college team competing, 222 the Championship. Vic Niederhoffer, a junior who learned squash as a freshman, continued his incredi- ble rate of improvement. Early in the season, Niederhotfer advanced to the finals of the Middlesex Bowl tourna- ment before bowing to perennial champion Henri Salaun. In the course of the tourna- ment he defeated Ben Heckscher '57, the current national champion. He surprised many by winning the Harry Cowles Invita- tion Tournament at the Harvard Club of New York. In the course of the Cowles victory, Niederhoffer defeated the then na- tional champion Sam Howe. Niederhoffer picked up another Invita- tional title at the University Club of New York and shortly after won the Massachu- setts State Championship. By the time of the Nationals, everyone was watching Niederhoifer carefully. He ad- vanced to the semi-finals, where he again faced Heckscher, but this time was defeated. Niederhoffer unhappily suffered set-backs at the hands of Ralph Howe, Yale's number one man. At the Harvard-Yale epic, both men played hard and the lead see-sawed back and forth but Howe won the fifth game 15-12 to take the match. This was Nieder- hoffer's only intercollegiate loss of the sea- son. In the finals of the Intercollegiate Championships the following weekend, Howe beat him again. Niederholfefs marvelous season undoubt- edly makes him the fourth-ranked amateur in the United States and second-ranked in- tercollegiate player, immediately behind Howe in both rankings. Paul Sullivan played most of the season at the second position on the ladder. A sen- ior, Sullivan is the quickest man on the squad, and it is almost impossible to hit a shot by him. His crucial victory against Canada in the finals of the National Team Tournament was a key to Harvardis triumph. In the Yale match, Lou Williams delighted the crowd by upsetting George West at num- ber three. This was the first time in three years that a Crimson player had beaten one of Yale's top trio. Williams was undefeated this year in intercollegiate competition. Bill Morris played number two against Yale, but could not quite handle Yale's Bob Hetherington. Morris, a sophomore, will be serving the Crimson at the top of the ladder for the next couple of years. Doug Walter, a senior, has been consist- ently one of Harvard's most valuable play- ers, and has been perhaps the most unher- alded man. Steady and methodical, his vic- tory against Yale was typical-he calmly whipped his opponent 15-10, 15-10, 9-15, 15-5. Roger Wiegaud, also a senior, has been captain of Harvard's championship teams for the past two years. Against Yale, he tri- umphed 16-13, 15-11, 12-15, 15-8. Barnaby has consistently cited the importance to the team of Wiegand's leadership as captain. Terry Robinson, John Thorndike and Al- len Terrel were seventh, eighth and ninth on the ladder at the end of the season. John Vinton, who played nine throughout the first half of the season, was a capable alternate. All were undefeated throughout the year's intercollegiate competition. It is a testimonial to the extraordinary quality and depth of the team that such fine players as senior Alex McDonnel, also a letterwinner from last year, and John Francis, hero of last yearis victory over Yale, were forced to remain standbys. Wes Horton and Jay Pasachoff were man- agers of the championship team. With only Sullivan, Walter and Wieg-and graduating from the top nine, the team will remain a powerhouse next year. Corey Wynn's freshman team, led by Dinnie Adams, defeated their Yale counterparts 8-1, and may provide further assistance. Since Yale is graduating all but two of their top nine players, Harvard should strengthen its domination of the League. Crimson ace Vic Niederhoffer. VARSITY SQUASH Won 10, lost 0 6 at McGill 8 Army 9 at MIT 9 at Comell 9 Dartmouth 9 Amherst 8 at Penn 8 at Princeton 8 Williams A Nationals at Detroit-placed first 6 Yale 223 FENCING The varsity fencing team under coach Edo Marion completed a moderately successful season with a final record of 7-7. The Har- vard swordsmen maintained their established superiority over the local teams of MIT, Brandeis, Bradford-Durfee, and Trinity. All were soundly defeated at least once, with MIT and Brandeis each bowing to the Crim- son on two occasions. Unfortunately, the fencers lost most of their Ivy matches, fin- ishing this year above only Yale in the five- school Ivy League. As in the past few years, the season was filled with several very close matches. Pow- erful NYU, second only to Columbia in the East, barely defeated Harvard C15-123. Later in the season, needing only one bout to clinch a victory over Cornell, the Crimson lost six straight bouts and finally lost the disappoint- ing match, 14-13. A bright spot in the season was the per- formance of the sabre squad. Led by cap- tain Iohn Kennedy '63, Roger Barzun '63, and Paul Zygas '64, the sabre fencers won a majority of their bouts in every dual meet except the Penn and Princeton meets. Bar- zun was picked for the all-Ivy team and missed the finals of the Eastern collegiates by only one touch. Other sabre fencers who backed up the squad and will be returning next year are Wilson Haley '65, John Kolb '64, and Larry Butler '64. Butler placed third in the New England collegiate sabre finals. The performance of the epee squad was inconsistent throughout the season, but on the whole, it was very creditable. With cap- tain-elect Nick Spitzer '64, Hugh Winig '65, and Steve Khinoy '62-4 starting in most of the matches, the epee fencers were able to win more than half of their bouts. Coach Marion switched Khinoy from the foil squad to the epee squad mid-way in the season. This proved to be a wise decision in that Khinoy consistently won two out of three bouts per dual meet. Fencing in the Eastern collegiates, Khinoy succeeded in reaching the finals and eventually ended as fourth-ranked epee. He was also mentioned for the sportsmanship trophy. The weakest part of the Harvard team this year was the foil squad. Coach Marion blamed their poor record mainly on the in- experience of his starting men, Dan Kirsch '64, Pete Busch '64, and Dave Dooley '65, Prospects for a much-improved team next year look very good. Losing only Barzun, Kennedy, and Khinoy, the team will have 13 returning lettermen. Sabre should con- tinue to be strong, as should epee which will have the support of Jerry Keller and Kent Brittan, both '65. The foil team especially should improve with the aid of Walter Fore- man Lloyd Ramsey, also '65, In addition, several experienced freshmen will be joining the varsity foil squad next year.

This year's third place finish at the Dartmouth Winter Carnival put an end to the laughter and inaugurated a new status for Harvard skiing. Coach Gus Jaccaci explains that all financial backing comes from a group known as the Friends of Harvard Skiing, since the team receives no support from the Univer- sity. Before most weekend skiers had begun to clean last year's wax off their skis, the varsity skiers began their training. Led by Jaccaci and Captain Bill Kemp, the skiers raced up and down the Stadium steps and played soc- cer until snow began to fall. Over Christ- mas vacation, the team drilled up at Killing- ton Basin, where they received free use of the facilities.

To see this victory in its proper perspective, it must be realized that Harvard has never before placed third in any of the big Carnivals. Harvard won not by taking any of the very top positions which were held mostly by Dartmouth and Middlebury, but by making remarkably consistent ninth and tenth place performances. Kim Chaffee's eighth and Bill Kemp's ninth in the downhill gave Harvard a fifth in that event, while Kempts ninth and Tim Williams's tenth put Harvard second in the slalom. Bill Gray took a surprising eighth in the cross-country, and even Harvard's traditionally weak jump- ing team turned in a sixth place finish. But the following week, Harvard could manage only a fifth at the Middlebury Carni- val, the Eastern Collegiate Championships. The principle reason for this slip was Mid- dleburyls tremendous 55 meter jumping hill which proved to be the downfall of Har- vard's Bill Bacon, who could place only twenty-first. Harvard results at smaller weekend races and at the Norwich carnival were not spec- tacular, mostly because JV skiers were fac- ing varsity men from other schools. The freshman team had over twenty skiers this season, and this wealth of material should aid the varsity, which will be seriously de- pleted in June. Bill Kemp, the team's cap- tain and four-event man will be graduating, as will Bill Bacon, the top jumper, and Bar- clay Hudson, the best cross country man. But next year's captains, Kim Chaffee and Bill Gray, should be able to equal this sea- sonis success, if the spirited determination of this year can be preserved.

Competing for the first time in the New England College Rifle League QNECRLJ, the team placed third out of ten in the Northern group, and has high hopes for taking Hrst place in the Greater Boston competition. Notable victories include the Yale match, held on the day of The Game, 1401-1394. This was the hrst time the team had broken 1400, collegiate rifle shooting's equivalent of par, in several years. High-water mark for the year came against Northeastern Uni- versity, the traditional powerhouse of the area, they were upset 1413-1408. However, most matches, unlike the North- eastern match, went against Harvard. Lack of depth was responsible for most losses, as Harvard usually fired only tive or six men. This is especially important in rifle shooting, where a team is allowed to frre ten men and count the high five scores. Each man lires ten shots in each of the three position- prone, kneeling, and standing-for a maxi- mum of 300 points. Perfect score for a team is 1500 points. At the Coast Guard Invitational, Harvard placed fourteenth in a held of forty, which included tive of last year's top ten teams in the country. Two team members won recognition in the NECRL, receiving medals for year's averages among the top ten. Frank Murphy placed Hfth with a 2835, and Jim Andrews was tenth with a 2823. Although the serv- ices of seniors Dick Hoefer and Ben Blum- berg will be lost, the prospects are bright for next year, the first full season in the new rifle range. The new range, which replaces the one torn down five years ago, should aid substantially in the development of Har- vardls rifle team. RIFLE 226 -.M ww .,., W.. .V X ..

The following week in the IC4A s at Villa- nova, Mullin became Harvard's first mile champion since Penn Hallowell in 1931, establishing new meet and Harvard records of 4:06.4. CHis mark erased the old IC4A record of 4:07.8, held by the great Ron Delany of Villanovaj The field events corps accounted for 47 1X6 points against Yale and spearheaded the Crimson's scoring all season long. The Yale scoring was typical: Hobie Armstrong won the hop, step, and jump at 47 feet, 11M inches Cand tossed the javelin better than 200 feetjg senior Sarge Nichols won the discus at 152 feet 1 inch, Rick deLone cap- tured the shotput trophy at 54 feet 9 inches, 1 and Ted Bailey led the sweep of the hammer ' with a new stadium record of 191 feet 3M inches. Hank Hatch added points in both the hurdles and the javelin, and sophomore Jack Spitzberg recovered from an early sea- son injury in time to pick up vital points for a first place tie in the high jump. 228 BASEBALL When Coach Norm Shepard took the Har- vard baseball team south for their spring tour, no one predicted that 1963 would be one of his most successful seasons. The squad's only sure strong point was a solid infield. Last year's entire outfield was gone, and so were the top two pitchers. Phil Bernstein was certain to start at first base, and Terry Bartolet, Captain Dave Morse, and Mike Drummey were veterans at second, short, and third. But the outfield was wide open for half a dozen aspirants. Catching was uncertain, due to Dick Diehlls shoulder troubles, and the only sure thing about the pitchers was their inexperience. After two losing seasons, Shepard hoped his team would finish over .500, but he expected no more. Yet the team came back North with a 4-1 record and kept right on winning. Tight pitching by Al Yarbro, Paul Del Rossi, and Dick Garibaldi, plus solid hitting and de- fense helped Harvard clean up local opposi- tion fTufts, Springfield, and B.U.J and win its first two Ivy games, The outfield settled down as Bob St. George, Gavin Gilmore, and Jim 'fCurly Combs took over as regulars. A three-run homer by Dick Diehl sparked a seven-run third inning and an upset defeat of Navy, the defending Eastern Intercolle- giate Baseball League champions. 'fCurly Combs went on a hitting spree against Princeton, collecting a home run and six runs batted in. Bill Guzzetti struck out twelve to beat M.I.T., and Harvard had won its tenth straight game. With a combined earned-run average of 1.07, the mound staff was the real key to the team's success. Harvard baseball's longest winning streak Coach Norm Shepard.

After the Indians capitalized on weak relief pitching to drop the Crimson to second place behind Army in league stand- ings, a lot was at stake when the undefeated Cadets invaded Cambridge on May 11. Sophomore starter Paul Del Rossi held Army to a single unearned run, 'and the Crimson's seven runs gave the mound star his seventh victory without a loss. A Boston College hurler showed con- tempt for statistics and gave Harvard the Greater Boston League championship in the 230 next dayis game. With pitcher Garibaldi up in the eighth, B.C. intentionally Walked him to get to Wolf-Man Drummey, the tC2.I11,S leading hitter. Drummey delivered a single to put Harvard ahead. Then, in the ninth, he made what Coach Shepard called the finest clutch play l've ever seenw, a diving stop of a run-scoring grounder, to save the pennant for Harvard. Del Rossi also started against Yale. Since the first inning of the Navy game, Har- vard's ace had allowed only two runs in 26 innings. But the Elis, an underrated team with a mediocre record, were not impressedg they jumped on the southpaw for five runs in the fourth to nail the game down. Harvard missed the injured Phil Bernstein, its cleanup hitter and RBI leader, and could score only three runs. In consolation for the loss to Navy in the final league game, third baseman Drummey brought back the Charles H. Blair Bat. His .471 average in league play earned this sym- bol of the EIBL batting championship. Despite the weak finish that cost Harvard the EIBL title, the overall 18-4 record of the club was a superb achievement. The defen- sive play and the hitting were consistently good, and the amazing pitching staff was the surprise of the season. The team bettered all expectations by such a distance that it was the phenomenon of the spring sports, and one of the best baseball teams Harvard has ever Helded.

LACROSSE For the last five years Princeton had taken the Ivy Lacrosse title. But with thirteen re- turning lettermen on the Crimson varsity, plus the best attacking unit in the North, Harvard was bailed by the Princeton coach as one of the finest teams in League history and a shoo-in-for the championship. Cam- bridge handicappers tended to agree: this was the year to break the Tiger streak. There was some excuse for the pre-season optimism. Coach Bruce Munro had a great front line: Captain Grady Watts, who led the nation in assists in his sophomore year, senior Woody Spruance and rookie Lou Wil- liams, who seemed ready to take up the stick formerly wielded by Dave Bohn, New Eng- landis top scorer in 1961. The three midfield positions could be rotated among veterans Joe Prahl and Pete Sieglall, and highly re- garded newcomers Mike Bassett, 'LTink Gunnoe, and Pete Wood. Goalie Gil Leaf was back with a year of valuable experience, and the defensive unit of Henry Field, Dave Grannis, and Al Strauss was bolstered by rookie Charlie Kessler. The only foreseeable weak point was an unproven ability to func- tion as a team. Spring vacation is warm-up time for the Harvard stickmen. They travelled South after just four practice scrimmages to play LACROSSE Won 11, Lost 4 10 Hofstra 4 17 Holy Cross 5 18 Rutgers 13 10 Boston Lacrosse Club 3 10 Maryland 13 16 Tufts 2 4 Navy 17 7 Princeton 12 15 M.I.T. 3 13 Williams 4 6 Comell 3 13 Dartmouth 9 11 Brown 7 7 Yale 13 15 Pennsylvania 3 Nick Bamford 1141 uncorks a pass to Captain Grady Watts 131. -.H L' Reese Q41 has plenty of protection as he scoops the ball away from Dartmouth defenders. four of the nation's top teams in six days. The opener against Hofstra was a good omen: the Crimson iced the game in the first half and went on to win 10-4, as the big three of Watts, Spruance, and Williams tallied seven goals. At Rutgers, Coach Munro experimented with four midfield men and two defensemen, and Harvard triumphed 18-13 despite a ten-point performance by Rutgers star John Valestra. Before the Ivy season began, the Crimson trounced M.I.T. in a flnal tune-up, 15-3, as Williams scored seven goals, the highest single-game total for any 1962 player. Munro was worried slightly that most of the goals had been scored on individual sorties, the only stickman credited with more than three assists was star passer Watts. This de- fect showed up in the Cornell game as Watts was double-teamed and Harvard was held to six goals, fortunately the defensive units rose to the occasion and the Big Red slipped only three goals past Gil Leaf. Captain Grady Watts had proven himself the key man in the Crimson offense, with his sharp passes, alert recoveries, and deft steals. Princeton was ready, Watts found himself double-teamed, and high-scoring Lou Wil- liams often noticed a second defenseman in his vicinity. The midfield unit failed to take up the offensive slack, and Princeton coasted to victory, 12-7, after compiling a 10-3 lead. This loss ended Harvard's hopes for the Ivy League title, since the undefeated Tigers had 232 only two easy games left. In the seasonis last home contest, the Crimson alternately played its worst and best lacrosse of the year, finally winning over Dartmouth, 13-9. The Harvard stickrnen scored three goals in 55 seconds to wipe out a 3-0 deficit, and hung on in the last two pe- riods to win by the margin of Woody Spru- ance's four goals. The Yale game was played on the hottest day of the season. General sloppiness and a first-period injury to Spruance paved the way to a Yale romp. Led by captain Gil LaMotte, the Blue took a 13-4 lead, then courteously iinished with substitutes, winning 13-7. Year-end statistics revealed Lou Williams as one of the national scoring leaders, with 42 goals. In total points C goals plus assistsj he was second only to Watts, whose total of 5 8 made him the highest scorer in Crim- son history. Watts was further honored by his selection to the All-American Lacrosse Team and the All-Ivy Team. Teammates Pete Sieglaff and goalie Leaf joined Watts in All-Ivy recognition. Despite a slightly disappointing second- place finish, the year was a successful one for Coach Munro. In the middle of the sea- son he had been awarded the Major H, the highest honor offered by the Harvard ath- letic department, for the 13-1-1 record of his 1961 team. Only four other coaches now at Harvard hold this distinction. HEAVYWEIGHT CREW In 1961 the Crimson Heavyweights trimmed Yale in the annual four mile competition by more than seven lengths. Five veterans of that victory return to the crew this year, and the varsity lost four of tive races, includ- ing the clash with the Elis at New London. With the great Perry Boyden at stroke the varsity left the Bulldogs well in their wake for three years running. No crew that he stroked ever had a losing season. The '62 season simply proved that tive strong veter- ans, or even eight, for that matter, do not add up to a strong crew unless there is some- thing to pull them together. Both Mike Den- nis and Dick Masland did a creditable job at stroke, but they couldnit fill the gap left by Boyden's graduation. For the heavy- weights to have finished with a winning record, they would have needed another Boyden. Harvard opened the season with a narrow victory over Rutgers and Boston University, but after that the varsity eight ran into trou- ble. On Lake Carnegie they finished behind both Princeton and M.l.T. In the Adams Cup competition of May 12 they lost a squeaker to Penn. A week later in the EARC Sprints the Crimson had a brief mo- ment of triumph when it Iinished ahead of top-seeded Cornell in its qualifying heat, But in the afternoon finals the crew had to settle for fourth place, a deck behind the same Cornell crew they had beaten a few hours earlier, and about a length behind Yale and Penn. The final blow came in New London on June 2nd, Coach Harvey Love had pre- dicted the four mile Yale race was Ugoing to be a close one, and in those close ones anything can happen. Yale got a slight jump at the start, but the shells were virtu- ally neck and neck all the way. At the finish Yale led by inches, to post a winning time of 21:26. Harvard's mark of 21:27 was only good enough for second. HEAVYWEIGHT CREW April 28-Charles River, Cambridge, Mass. One mile. 1. Harvard, 5:41.03 2. B. U., 5:46.43 3. Rutgers, 5:46.6.

LIGHTWEIGHT CREW Around the East they were beginning to doubt it, but the Crimson's domination of lightweight crew couldn't last forever. Har- vard had won an unprecedented four con- secutive Eastern Sprint championships, and with only two lettermen on the squad Coach Laury Coolidge's boat was once again top- seeded for the annual competition on Lake Quinsigamund. During the regular season Harvard had numbered both Navy and M.I.T. among its victims on the Charles, and the lightweights had lost to Cornell by a margin estimated variously from three feet to three yards. Anyway, it was close. Going into the sprints anything could happen. Despite the fact that only captain Jim Miller and cox John Kearney returned from 1961's letterwinners, Coolidge seemed to suffer from a plethora of talent. He ran into one of those situations in rowing where it is almost impossible to separate the varsity boat from the J.V.'s, no matter how the oarsmen are shuiiied. Over the course of the season, Coolidge employed several diiferent boats as his var- sity. A sophomore-dominated shell turned in the surprise victory over Navy in the sea- son's first race on the Charles, and the same eight rowed in the squeaker with Cornell. Then, overnight, the J.V. boat came to life and started beating the varsity. The starting positions were switched, and what had been the J .V. shell won the Biglin Bowl for the Crimson-defeating M.I.T. and Dartmouth.

With two weeks of the season remaining Coolidge felt he had done as much experi- menting as he could. For the Goldthwaite Cup competition at Princeton he settled on the following boatings, and stayed with them in the sprints: Sophomore Charles McC1ennan Cbowjg sophomore Iver Peterson Ctwojg sophomore Bob Russell C353 junior John Richard tfourjg sophomore George Welch Cfivejg sophomore Jim MacMahon Csixjg sophomore Martyn Greenacre Csevenlg and captain Miller at stroke. For the fifth year in a row the Crimson captured the Goldthwaite Cup, emblematic of Big Three supremacy in the lightweight field. The only disappointing race of the year was the final one-the Eastern Inter- collegiate Sprints. In a race that will be remembered as long as the sprints are rowed, Cornell, Navy, and M.I.T. finished in a triple dead heat for the trophy. Harvard trailed the winners by about a length across the line. But even in the disappointment of the Sprint outcome, the ,62 season emerged as a good year for the Harvard lights. They won more than they lost in what has to be called a building year. Fifteen lettermen are scheduled to return for '63- this must be some kind of a recordf, Coolidge says with an understandable grin. The J.V.'s won their division of the Sprints, and so did the Fresh- men. Only captain Miller will not be back for a season that promises to restore the crown of lightweight supremacy to Cam- bridge. SAILING This season must be regarded as one of the most successful ever for the Harvard Yacht Club, which provides the University with a sailing team. Through fall and spring, Crimson sailors collected ten trophies and never finished worse than sixth in intercol- legiate competition. The success of the spring was heightened by the acquisition of fifteen Interclub Dinghies, which are the first Harvard-owned boats since the club be- came a member of the New England Inter- collegiate Sailing Association. With a strong returning nucleus of Com- modore Carter Ford and Vice-Commodore Mike Lehmann, and excellent support from Mike Horn, Dave Stookey, and Peter Far- row, the Crimson took the Big Three and the New England Sloop championships in the fall. Harvard sailed to first place finishes in all but three of the major Fall events. The team broke ice in the spring with the trophy for the season's largest inter-sectional event, the Boston Dinghy Club Challenge Cup. And they followed this victory with a second place finish to the Coast Guard in the New England championship. The club continued collecting trophies into the summer for the first time, with a very impressive win in the North American Inter- collegiate Championships in J une. More than 150 members used the new boats during the summer, demonstrating the boom of enthu- siasm and increased participation fostered by the long-awaited dream of new equipment.

TENNIS On the same day the lacrosse team was upset by Princeton in its title bid, so was Jack Barnaby's tennis team. Barnaby had conceded Princeton the favorite's role in the Eastern Intercollegiate League race right from the start-but that was all he was giv- ing away. As the regular season got into full swing, the Tigers charged into Cambridge and, as expected, swept all nine League matches and 14 of 15 contests for the Big Three title. Harvard was not to lose again in the North until the seasonts last match, against Yale. The Bulldogs rolled to an 8-1 victory in League scoring and edged the Crimson 8-7 in Big Three competition. NMike Neely's return at number one made a terriiic difference to Yale, Barnaby claimed after his team's narrow defeat. In contrast, the Crimson's big trouble this year was at the top. Captain Paul Sullivan had not recovered his usual stamina after a bout with mononucleosis. And sophomore Vic Niederhoffer, who played at number three, tended to be erratic. But the team was young. Only Keith Mar- tin C6J and Mark Woodbury C75 were lost by 'S Front Row: Walker, Vinton, Martin, Sullivan tcaptainj, Adelman, Niederhotfer, Walter.

In the New England Intercollegiate Tourna- ment the unseeded sophomore battled his, way into the final round, upsetting the eighth seed, the third seed, and finally top-seeded John Botts of Williams, before running into trouble and losing to Yaleis Mike Neely in straight sets. At the end of the year the tennis team had a 7-2 record, the marked improvement of Ripley, and ten of the top twelve players re- turning for 1963. Only the phenomenal Princeton and Yale teams could beat Har- vard this season, and in 1963 experience could bring the Ivy crown to Cambridge. RUGBY Harvard's Rugby Club managed to put together a good fall season after a very slow start last spring. They fought the Montreal Barbarians to a muddy tie in the season opener, and followed with another tie in a match with Boston Rugby Club. Captain John van Schalwyk's team then lost the big game to Dartmouth. But Dick Carey, Ian Paisley-Tyler, and the other backs finally welded into a real team to gain a surprise upset over New York Rugby Club, after a disappointing loss to Princeton. The for- wards, sparked by Mike Auer and Buzz Miller, overcame a tenacious Amherst team a week later, as Richard Carey kicked a 30 yard field goal for the victory. GOLF The 1961 golf team compiled a respectable 8-5 record. With six returning lettermen led by Bruce Johnstone and Captain John Liv- ingood there is a strong nucleus for 1962. The golfers opened their spring season against Navy at Annapolis. The Crimson was fresh from a Spring Vacation practice at Duke University, and played Livingood in the number one slot. The Middies pulled out the match in the final round, 4-3. The high point of the season came in a dual meeting with Brown and Princeton. In 1961 the Tigers had downed Harvard 7-0 and walked away with the EIGL champion- ships. This year Princeton had to struggle for a narrow 4-3 victory. George Duffy shot the low Harvard round of 73 when the ,Crim- son lost a 4-3 match to Yale, but Harvard had some consolation in their easy capture of the Greater Boston League crown. All season the Crimson golfers played above their heads, winning some very close matches and dropping others by a single point. Aggrey Awori heads for a low hurdles record against Y ale. The spring teams of the Class of '65 matched their varsity counterparts in 1962 by com- piling an impressive overall record of 34-17 in the seven areas of competition. Not a sin- gle squad ended the season with a losing record. Coach Corey Wynn's tennis team led the way with their second undefeated season. Their eight victories included sweeps over Brown and MIT, as well as superior show- ings in the Exeter, Choate, Dartmouth, Am- herst, and Yale contests. Among the unde- feated members of the squad were Chauncey Steele, Dean Peckham, Allen Terrell, and Mike Tarre. The baseball team started and ended its season with strings of victories, their 8-5 record included a 10-3 win over Yale. Coach Nat Harris, in his year, praised many mem- bers of the team highly, including shortstop Tom Bilodeau and a top-notch pitching staff. 237 The track team compiled a 3-2 record, showing promise in all areas of the sport. Aggrey Awori was undefeated in his twenty events during the spring season, having had a successful winter season as well. Peter Lamp broke the University javelin record in the Yale meet with 216 ft. 6 in., as the other Held performers displayed similar ability. The lightweight crew C4-lj did somewhat better than the heavies C2-25. The lights had easy victories over Princeton and Yale in the race at Princeton, but were defeated in their opening race by Cornell. Captain Ron Wil- kins led the boaters to victory in the Eastern Sprints at Worcester. The heavies displayed strength in most competition, but they too were plagued by Cornell. The golf team, which shared Coach Coo- ney Weiland with the varsity, compiled vic- tories in its matches with Andover, Gov- ernor Dummer, and MIT. The strong Exe- ter, Yale, and Dartmouth teams overpow- ered them. Leading the golfers were Fred Taylor, Jim Buchanan, and Jim Campen. The lacrosse team repeated its 6-4 record of the previous year under the direction of Coach Jim Lentz. Highlight of the season was a come-from-behind overtime victory against Dartmouth. Captain Mike Leahy, John Carroll, and Fred Gates stood out as defensemen, and Ormond Hammond did more than justice to the goalie slot. Ed Crain jogs to victory in the mile against Yale. 238 v r The athletes of the Class of '66 arrived in Cambridge with great enthusiasm which never seemed to falter through the various sport seasons. Their creditable records bear this out. The Freshmen got off to a good start with their outstanding football team, the iirst to maintain an undefeated record since 1928. The secret to the team's success, Coach Henry Lamar points out, is that they be- came a group sooner than any team Pve ever had. They broke the strangeness early and worked as a unitf' Over the whole season the Yardlings out- scored their opponents l3O-37, with Yale being the only team to score more than seven points against them. In their hrst contest the gridders were able to use three full teams, and eventually 58 players to overpower a thin Tufts team 39-O. In a return engagement, Tufts proved to be stronger competition, but through the efforts of Captain Jerry Beasley and Dave Poe, Harvard managed to prevail, 14-7. Previously undefeated Dartmouth found Harvard too powerful as the Crimson crushed them 26-6. Harvard scored the 'drst time it held the ball, and sloshed in the mud for a total of 221 rushing yards. One of the touch- downs came on a spectacular fifty-yard run by Wally Grant in the second period. Magnificent,' was Coach Lamar's' de- scription of the Boston College game. Though plagued by penalties, the freshmen managed to dominate highly-rated BC throughout. The 7-0 victory came on Quar- terback Paul Dennebaum's drive from the five-yard line. The team got off to a bad start in the Princeton game, but capitalized 'Q ,f f ,. q Q f 9? M' f A , X V ase-ss ' , , g K .v . W' 4. e 0 A . f--' a 45, 5 I .fx Nl: .ff Q1 .

After a slow start, the hockey team snapped back to win nine of its last ten games. Above, Alden Harrington heads toward the Boston College Goal in an early season loss. on errors to score twice within two minutes, both on the ellorts of Askold Kohlrnann in short plunges. The final score was 14-6. It was after this game that the team first tensed at the thought of an undefeated season. And it was only with rugged determination that such a goal was realized. Lamar later ex- claimed, I was proud of the way they fought to win the final two games? The record was almost marred in the Holy Cross game. The Worcester team was in command through most of the game, but fell 7-6 as a result of a late game drive egineered by John McCluskey and a decisive kick by Roger Noback. The Yale contest ended with Harvard :.:7YS 53 rl? I 4 rx l V ,Wif- f , ., ' 1 1' W- . I V K .. ff.-fmgtjgfae, 53:--rf ffz ' f' .1 i .

The Crimsorfs second touchdown was achieved in the third period as Bill Tedrow picked oif a Yale pass. Yale was strong but failed on both attempts for two extra points. In general, the team's success has been attributed to good kicking, a strong line, and, excellent leadership from quarterbacks Beas- ley, Dennebaum, and McCluskey. Captained by John Stevens and coached by Dana Getschell, the freshman soccer team ended the season 6-2-1. The defeats came in tough contests with Dartmouth and a strong Exeter squad. Victories over Tufts, MIT, Andover, and the University of Connecticut were one-- sided, but the Princeton and Brown encoun- ters were more diiiflcult, Goalie Nat Bow-A ditch starred in the 1-0 triumph over the previously undefeated Princeton team, and the Yardlings came from behind to beat Brown 4-3. The Yale match resulted in a 2-2 tie. Halfbacks Chuck Okigwe, Fred Akuffo, and Rob Knapp consistently led the booters. The cross-country team compiled an 8-2 record. After losing the opener to Cornell, they mauled Boston University 50- I 5 Ca per- fect scorej. They prevailed over Penn and Columbia in a triangular meet and in the Big Three meet outscored both Princeton and Yale. Harvard's Walter Herlett placed first in the Big Three race with a time of 16:06. Captain Michael Shanahan provided good leadership for the team. The hockey team started the season in very poor fashion, losing five of their first eight games. They snapped back under Coach Nat Harris and Captain Bob Clarke, however, to wind up the season 11-6-1. The team, in fact, won nine of their last ten games. The impressive string of victories began with an exciting 5-4 overtime game with Dartmouth, the Yardlings went on to conquer St. Paulls, Princeton, and the Har- vard junior varsity. The tie was the result of the first Brown game. Leading scorer John Stevens and Captain Clarke on defense paced the hockey team throughout the season. Coach Edo Marian was fortunate this year to have a few men on his fencing team who had some previous experience. The general problem, however, was as usual a lack of experience at the outset. They were de- feated by CCNY and Bradford Durfee, but were able to gain two victories over weak MIT. Their victory over Yale, 18-9, in the linal match of the season, was impressive. Captain Henning Meyn, Dave Basset, Mark Byers, and Dick Kolombatovich were the leaders. This is the best freshman swimming team at Harvard in tive years,', commented Coach Benn Merritt on a team that compiled a 12-1 record. Sweet revenge victories over Prince- ton and Yale were joined by triumphs in the Army, Dartmouth, Brown, and other meets to produce an impressive record. Surpris- ingly, the one loss was in a close Deerfield Academy contest. In the first six meets six freshman records and one University record were set. ln the Hebron Academy encounter, the team of Captain Eric Klaussman, Henry Whelchel, Bruce Fowler, and John Quinn broke the 200 yd. medley relay record in 1:43.7. Sev- eral members of the team showed potential, and Charlie Vines was singled out as a great diver. The wrestling team was another which Chris Pardee set a new University high jump record of 6 feet five and three-quarter inches. Captain Tony Lynch consistently won points in the hurdles. Joseph Smith breaks the tape ahead of his Yale opponents in the 60 yard dash. was dubbed the best to appear for several years. Coach John Lee had unqualihed praise for the boy's work. The team abounded in former secondary school cham- pions, including Captain Brian Conley at 147, Brad Smith at 130, Dave Worcester at 157, and Jim Chace in the heavyweight class. As most freshman teams learned, MIT was a pushover, the wrestler crushed them 32-O. Other contributions to the 8-1 record for the season were Ivy victories over Co- lumbia, Penn, Princeton, Brown, and Yale. The squash team began their season by taking up where last year's undefeated team had left off. After six opening victories Coach Corey Wynn remarked that these fellows are coming along well, and the squad has good depth? The record did not hold out, however, and in their first loss they were swamped by Princeton. An 8-1 victory over the Elis rounded out the 9-4 season. John D. Adams was captain and number one man all seasong Wynn called him Hquick, clever, and a good competitor. A 9-3 record is amazing for a Harvard basketball team, but the freshmen achieved such a record by being a Usolid team that plays well together, as Coach Bruce Munro said. Two of the losses were at the hands of BC, each by a heart-breaking two points. A bad loss to Brown was avenged later in the season, and most of the victories were 244 substantial. There was a show of strength when the team won its last five games. Although there were no individual greats among the cagers, four of the five starters averaged in double figures: they were Cap- tain Bill Fegley, Barry Williams, Keith Sed- lacek, and lim Martin. Williams and Sedla- cek are viewed as prospects for next year's varsity. The winter track team, led by Coach Bill McCurdy, won nine of its ten meets, losing only to Army. ln the one-sided contest with MIT, Chris Pardee set a new University high jump record with a 6 ft. 53A in. effort. Throughout the season, Tony Lynch excelled as a hurdler, Phil Reed as a pole vaulter, and Walt Hewlett as a strong distance runner. Team member Dick Thompson was the num- ber one high school hammer thrower in the country last year. The teamis series of victories was capped by a romp through the Big Three meet, when they gained 7316 points to Princeton's 37 and Yale's 27W. The intramural sports experienced their usual ups and downs among the freshmen. Attendance was at a peak in some sports, but in others it plummeted sharplyg the squash tournament and basketball compe- tition were among the more successful. A pool tournament and a tiddlywinks team were ventures undertaken by the more pas- sive athletes. .- .
