DEDICATED TO Martin Dewey Whitaker Over the past decade Dr. Whitaker has served Lehigh devotedly and successfully. Coming to Le- high in 1946 from Oak Ridge, where he directed the Clinton Laboratories in developing vital nuclear materials. President Whitaker has applied his imag- inative grasp of difficult problems to the post-war task of building up a modern University. His prog- ress, reviewed in the evidence of expanding endow- ment and rising sand stone structures, has in itself been impressive. But there is more to progress than the tangible structures of stone and mortar; his wisdom and sincerity of purpose have unified and inspired the Faculty; his friendly, soft spoken au- thority and quiet competence have won the respect of the students. These qualities and achievements have perpetuated and expanded the spirit, as well as the body, of Lehigh. In recognition of his ten years of leadership and service the yearbook staff dedicates this 1956 Epitome to President Martin D. Whitaker. H life — and an education These are impressions of Lehigh life: islands of light in a softly lit library sheltering intent students; tuxes and evening gowns rustling to the soft music of a Houseparty band; blood thirsty yells of an eager wres- tling crowd reverberating from the walls of Grace Hall; the sombre, yet happy ceremonies of graduation; and even the broad panoramic view spreading out over the campus and Bethlehem into the far distant haze of the Blue Mountains across the Lehigh Valley. Translated into more abstract terms, these and other elements of the Lehigh picture form an education that is both purposefully specalized and wisely broadened. There is more to the picture than the search for wis- dom of past and present generations, carried on in libraries, labs, and classrooms — far more. In themselves, the people we know — fraternity brothers, classmates, roommates, and friends — are an indeligible education. The bull sessions and parties are an invaluable supple- ment to formal subject matter. The physical elation of good sport, the sense of team play, the health and vigor of the playing field — all add depth to a picture which otherwise is largely mental. Even the surroundings, the town, steel mills, and movie theatres of our environment are important. Thus, there is far more to the process of education than that which an academic average measures. The 1956 Epitome has attempted to portray the college edu- cation in a broad and informal manner, feeling that it is an understanding of people, as well as processes and event that leads to the growth in wisdom and grace which lends magnificence to the purpose of the Uni- versity and marks the truly educated. The Vear in Reuieuu The 1955-56 academic year started oul like- any other year with the be-dinked freshmen swarming confusedly over the campus trying to orient themselves to college in general and Lehigh in particular. However, subse- quent events were to put a mark of distinction upon this year, to set it apart as a year to remember. Returning undergraduates were greeted with the sight of a huge physical transformation taking place on South Mountain. Cranes, bulldozers, skeletons of steel, piles of brick and stone, and vast holes torn in the earth of the Mountain were everywhere. As they looked upon the construction rising about them, the students could very definitely feel a sense of participa- tion, for through their organizations they had con- tributed $10,000 in student funds to the Packer Hall- Dormitory program. Another development that had taken place over the Summer which somewhat dismayed the students and their bill-paying parents was the increase in tuition as of Fall 1956. Following a nation-wide trend, Lehigh was forced to increase tuition $17 for arts and busi- ness students and $200 for engineers to meet rising education expenses. F.arly in October a power failure plunged the entire campus into darkness. With the absence of light mak- ing study impossible, the students looked for diver- sions and hit upon the idea of paying a visit to the girls at Moravian. Crowds of students, singing as they went, marched down campus, across the New Street Bridge, and proceeded to the College where they serenaded the girls. The appearance of an irate Dean of Women and several police squad cars persuaded the students to disperse and wend their way back to the dorms. The minds of Lehigh men turned back to more ser- ious matters with the visit of General Carlos P. Ro- mulo, Philippine Ambassador to the United States. The former president of the UN General Assembly en- lightened his audience on the situation in Asia and emphasized that we need to put more stress on the spiritual values to win in Asia. The same weekend was the occasion for the visit of some 3.500 parents to campus. A bullet luncheon with members of the Faculty, a gridiron victory over Bucknell, tours of the campus, and inspection of the new Health Center were the highlights of the Par- ents ' Day. Fraternity houses and residence halls enter- tained the parents at parties and dinners that evening. The dedication of Fritz Lab drew over 300 promi- Freshman Week has its trials. Perhaps the greatest shock is the receipt of a sizable hill for a handful of books, after years of free education. nent industrialists, engineers, and guests to campus for the ceremonies which included speeches by Eugene- Grace and Dr. Allen Austin, director of the National Bureau of Standards. Putting their pride and joy, the World ' s Largest Universal Testing Machine, through its paces for the benefit of the audience, the engineers had the giant nut-cracker pulling steel bars like t.nt and reducing wood sections to splinters. The machine ' s odd shape soon had wags dubbing the lab The Nut- cracker Suite . South Mountain went into its customary semi-annual eruption with the arrival of Fall House-party which was particularly hellish with the theme of A Night in Hades . Over 1.000 couples kicked their hooves to the red-hot horns of the Sauter-Finegan orchestra. against a backdrop of devil ' s skulls and other grotesque figures. Saturday afternoon the Engineers trampled Temple into the turf of Taylor Stadium to put House- party participants into the proper moeid of celebration for the traditional living group parties that night. Any celebration on the part of the members and guests of Delta Tau Delta and Chi Psi was short-lived, however, as parties serving alcoholic beverages were forbidden by the Dean ' s Office for an infraction of the House- party rules. A jazz-concert in Grace Hall wrapped up the weekend. The dedication of the addition to Fritz Lab, with its 5,000,- 000 pound testing machine, marked the opening of a new era of strengthened relations with industry and Lehigh. An early morning fire in Williams Hall completely destroyed the third floor of the Metallurgy wing of the building. Damage was estimated in excess of SI 00,000. An enthusiastic, jazz-loving crew of Le- high students had a wild afternoon when Wilbur deParis and bis baud conducted a dixie-land concert at the Frolics. Less than two weeks later an epidemic of intestinal infection hit Lehigh, bedding five men in the new Health Center for a while and incapacitating scores of others. It might be said that for a few days, at least. Lehigh students were the most miserable in the coun- try. Hut it soon passed and life on the Mountain returned to normal until snow, wind, smog and the Lafayette Football Team descended from out of the East to bring misery all over again. The College of Arts and Science came out with a new Honors Program designed to provide tor compre- hensive, advanced study at the undergraduate level. Due to begin in hall L956 it consists of special seminars in the four basic areas of human knowledge. Arcadia elections were held in December instead of March for the first time. The platforms of the twenty- two candidates consisted of the issues of eating plans for the new University Center, twenty-four-hour health service, parking problems, and student-administration relations. December brought the announcement that Lehigh would receive S° 3T000 out of the Ford Foundation ' s half-billion-dollar grant to be used to help increase faculty salaries in the College of Arts and Science. Seniors shattered all records for the Insurance Gift Plan as hard working solicitors turned in an unprece- dented number of subscriptions. A strictly Non-University function which was pri- vately sponsored but attended by a large number of the student body, dates, and friends was the Stan Rubin- Wilbur deParis Dixieland Concert immediately before Christmas Vacation. Jazz, beer, and Lehigh students turned the affair into a blast ' ' that will live long in the memory of students and Deans alike. The issue of the Broun and While for January 10 read more like a New York tabloid than a college news- paper as it carried stories on two major campus fires, and three auto accidents which resulted in the death of one Lehigh student and serious injury for another. A spectacular early morning fire gutted a wing of Williams Hall causing an estimated S100.000 damage and the loss of much valuable research materials, books. and reports. Only the stupendous efforts of the firemen kept the entire building from being destroyed by the blaze which was visible for miles. Some thirty-eight hours later horseplay on the part of a few students resulted in tire which quickly trans- formed a room in Dravo into a charred shambles. The students involved were subsequently permitted to with- draw from the University. Basketball Manager Frank Witherineton was the The south side of Pucker Hall was tin scene of activity all through the year as the new addition sloul) rose from the ground. The inside of Packer Hall indeed looks different now than it did during the days when it housed classrooms, drawing rooms, and offices.

The issuance by the Dean ' s Office of a list of rules for Spring Houseparty containing several significant implementations of University social policy precipi- tated an incident which will, no doubt, in years to come be described in terms ranging from a student gather- ing to a full-fledged riot . Whatever may be the judgment of time, the fact re- mains that on Friday the 13th of January 1956 over 500 chanting, sign-waving students marched from Sayre Park through campus to the President ' s house. Finding Dr. Whitaker not at home, the phalanx invaded Grace Hall minutes before a group of Irish singers was sched- uled to entertain an SCL audience and, cheering and demonstrating, they proceeded to do a bit of entertain- ing on their own before finally dispersing. Attempting to ascertain the causes of the apparent student dissatisfaction, the Deans held several meetings with student leaders and interested Faculty members after which a special committee was appointed to work out an acceptable set of social regulations, which was subsequently adopted. Upsetting what had become a Lehigh tradition, the Music Festival Executive Committee decided one month later to cancel the 1956 Music Festival because of a conflict with the Dean ' s Office over questions of policy. A Lehigh Sounds Weekend was substituted which consisted of two operettas, a joint Band-Glee Club Con- cert, a dance, and an organ recital. Special efforts were made to turn it into a Spring Parents ' Weekend. On Parents ' day, visiting mothers and fathers were treated to a tour of the campus, a free luncheon, and the Lehigh-Buckuell football game, which Lehigh won 27-20. 12 Another aspect was added to the intellectual life I the University with the formation of a Cooperative Lec- ture Series made up of a number ol Lehigh organiza tions for the purpose of bringing to campus men who were both noted scholars and able speakers. The pro- gram got oil to an auspicious start with Dr. George W ' ald of Harvard speaking on Theories on the Origin of Life . [FC Weekend was turned into a winter carnival as an unexpected March snowstorm buried the campus in fifteen inches of the fluffy white stuff. Richard Maltby ' s orchestra provided the music while the stage-money roulette wheels clicked merrily throughout the Monte Carlo Dance. Shortly before Spring Vacation was due to begin, thirty heroes came down with the measles which brought joy to the whole campus when the Adminis- tration decided to extend the Vacation to prevent a full-fledged epidemic from breaking out. This unprece- dented shutting down of school gave hundreds of Le- high men an additional week to bask in the warm sun of Florida, Bermuda, and points South. Tragedy marred the vacation when Peter Ferngold and Herman Feldt were killed on their way home from New Orleans in a head-on collision with a tractor-trailer. These were the events of 1955-56 at Lehigh, at least the events that were unusual, unexpected, or signifi- cant. Through all of it the academic life of the Llni- versity went on with scarcely a ripple in the process of educating men to take their place as responsible mem- bers of our society. An institution is not easily disturbed by day-to-day happenings — and Lehigh is no exception. Spring Houseparty gave Lehigh men a chance to dofj their bucks anil don their best; for a brief and pleasant weekend the campus went coed. As evening shadows fall, the men of the ROTC head for the base of the hill and the forming grounds of the Armed Forces Day Parade, secure in the knowledge that this is the final parade of the year.

The Administration Source of power and policy Upon the members of the Administration falls the assignment of differentiating and fitting together the many elements that comprise an institution as complex as Lehigh; many specialized talents are required for the fulfillment of this task. The Board of Trustees is the supreme ruling body; it gives the final verdict regarding institutional policy. All rules, restrictions, aims, and new innovations are its product. President Martin D. Whitaker, with the assistance of Vice-President E. Kenneth Smiley, con- verts the goals of the Board into concrete administra- tive policy, by which all members of the University abide. Through a diversified chain of command, var- ious responsibilities are delegated to their respective subordinates, who in turn keep the President fully in- formed as to activity in their respective departments. Only through this semi-rigid linking of administrative responsibility can the educational facilities and the teaching personnel be kept at a high peak of efficiency. The skilled art of keeping the Lehigh ship of state on an even keel between the Board of Trustees and the student body is the function of the Office of the More than just a landmark, the Alumni Memorial Build- ing is the nerve center of the University. It houses nearly the entire Adminis- trative staff of the school, from the President down to the mail carrier. President Martin D. Whitak.hr Chairman of the Board of Trustees Eugene G.

Kenneth Smiley Dean of Students. Dean Wray H. Congdon, Dean and Director of Student Personnel Services, heads this vital office. He is assisted by Associate Deans John D. Leith, who endeavors to guide erring frosh through the difficult first year, and Byron C. Hayes, the omni- potent overseer of all student functions, from class cutting to Houseparty. The number of those who annually aspire to attend Lehigh usually exceeds the 2,500 mark. The man en- trusted with the vital responsibility of thinning the ranks is Charles A. Seidle, the Director of Admis- sions. Upon his shoulders rests the responsibility of choosing the Lehigh Man of the future. Compiling the permanent record of each student, in- cluding such things as cuts, class schedules, and various other trivia is the trying, often exasperating job of the Registrar ' s Office. James H. Wagner, Registrar, and his competent staff endeavor to complete this arduous task with as much accuracy, efficiency, and as little red tape as possible. Registration itself is the largest single problem, but thanks to a sweeping revision of the system, registration no longer consumes hours or even days. The Lehigh Senior is afforded an excellent oppor- tunity to interview many business firms for prospective employment through the auspices of the University Placement Service, directed by Everett A. Teal. The Treasurer, Elmer W. Glick, is the business manager of the LIniversity. Collection and accounting fall under his jurisdiction; he also performs the func- tion of Treasurer of the Board of Trustees. Numerous other individuals, Librarian James D. Mack, Chaplain Raymond E. Fuessle, Robert F. Her- rick, Director of Public Relations, Philip D. Wood- roofe, Director of Residence Halls, and the many ad- ministrative aides all play important parts in this com- plex organization. Each element functions as a member of a well-oiled machine; each does his job with diligence and perseverance in order to make Lehigh a great uni- versity. Deans af Students Wray H. Congdon, Byron C.

Moravei 37 College of Arts and Science The arts man sat in his easy chair reading Shake- speare. His roommate, an engineer like most other Lehigh men, sat in a hard wood chair, scratching his head and moaning about the deficiencies of his slide rule. From time to time the engineer made half sincere accusations about all people who read Shakespeare, then returned to his baffling figures and formulas. Secretly he may have admitted to himself that such less tangible subjects as Shakespeare were perhaps of more basic value than the material world which had sprung from the formulas he now studied, but the argument between the technician and the aesthetic was traditional. The science major next door was more akin to the engineer. He studied the pure physical fact which sup- ported engineering. Both he and the arts major played important roles in the educational world; the one in dealing with a sense of values; the other in giving the engineer a footing on sound fact and theoretical formulae. All three students would probably have agreed that arts subjects provided a broad prospective from which to view the complex 20th Century World. Associate Dean Gi.enn J. Christensen Dean Robert P.

Department Parker Besides presenting a fine pre-med program, the Biology Department provided students with a number of often fascinating courses with which they could quite advantageously complete their credit require- ments. Almost anyone could choose a course to suit his interests. Engineers, for example, found Biology 13 rather in- teresting, perhaps because the study of human biology included both sexes. Biology and Organic Evolution, on the other hand, seemed to attract many business students. A true nature lover might delight in Botany, which, besides the necessary instruction on the physiology, evo- lution, etc., of plants, provided its students with field trips in the Spring. Or, if his likings were directed more toward the animal kingdom. Zoology would be his choice. In Zoology, knowledge of fundamental life processes was gained by the study of such things as protoplasm, reproduction, and metabolism. This course was of fundamental importance to biology majors. Persons who enjoyed straining their eyes at a micro- scope in the quest of observing all sorts of wriggly monstrosities found ample opportunity to do so in Bac- teriology. In addition, they learned all about the anat- William G. Raupp, Hope T. Ritter, Michael Herbert, Richard W. Moscotti, Bradford B. Owen, Richard T. Reppert, James R. Vaughan, Francis J.

For those who found it intriguing to delve into the unsavory subject of sewage. Sanitary Bacteriology provided the necessary learning, in addition to such fundamental aspects as water purification and the analysis of milk and other food products. A casual visitor to Mr. Owen ' s lab in Histology for graduate students would meet some of the most beau- tiful pickled specimens ever sliced and slipped under a microscope. To keep the lonely grads company last year, an eel and a salamander of gigantic proportions (a foot long) were put into an aquarium alive. The old standbys, of course, were the pickled snakes, frogs, worms, mussels, plus various and sundry other happy inmates of the collection closets. It is only fair to warn any potential visitor to this class that these pre-meds (at least in part) are very dexterous with chloroform, formaldehyde, and a slicing blade. A different fate has been lurking in the terrarium during the last few years for unconscientious Biology students. This nameless terror has the external appearance of a calm and col- lected four-foot alligator, but the personality of a fiend- ish demon — as any student who has witnessed the mas- sacre of various unfortunate members of the frog spe- cies can well proclaim. Pre-med students could increase their knowledge in a pleasant way during meetings of the Robert Y. Hall Pre-Med Society. Outstanding pre-meds were honored by admittance to Alpha Epsilon Delta. R. W.

Serfass Upon entering the Chemistry Building, the visitor ran the risk of being confronted with strange noises, evil smells, and billows of smoke issuing forth from the lecture room. Anybody who has had freshman chemistry could have dispelled his alarm; campus fire- bugs were not performing with pyromaniacal glee, but it was only Dr. Serfass working away on his freshman lectures. All engineering students, as well as many arts and business students, encountered the fun and tribulations of Chem 4 and 5. Their pleasures were those of inhaling sweet-smelling gases such as NH,:, HC1, or even HlS, in lectures and labs. Test tubes, reagent shelves, and the ever-popular coupon books at one time or another have become an integral part of many a Lehigh man ' s thinking. Aside from freshman chemistry, the Chemistry De- partment presented many and varied undergraduate courses for students in various engineering and arts curricula. For those not majoring in the sciences or in engin- eering, an abridgement of elementary chemistry was offered, including the basic chemistry of metals and non-metals along with fundamental chemical mathe- matics. For the more advanced students, Analytical Theodore M. Houseknecht, William K. Rohwedder, Velmer B. Fish, Edward D. Amstutz, Earl J. Serfass, Robert L. Stubbings, Harold V. Anderson, Charles G. Dodd, Frank H. Healey, John J. Chessick, Richard L. Beach, John D. Skewis, Robert C. West. Chemistry provided long hours of lab work ranging in entertainment value from tedious weighing of cru- cibles on delicate analytical balances to relaxing water battles with long-ranged wash bottles for squirt guns. Physical Chemistry, referred to in the student vernac- ular was P-Chem , dealt with the relation of low quiz averages to changes in the state of matter, as far as many Chemical and Metallurgical Engineers were concerned. Although there were many students working for B.S. degrees in Chemistry, by far the largest enrollment for Chemistry was in the graduate held. In the Depart- ment, graduates were of major interest, since much of the research done at Lehigh in 1955-1956 was conducted by the Chemistry Department. A considerable amount of this research work was sponsored by the Army, Navy, and Air Force, as well as by commercial concerns. The Department ' s rather large staff included men of great professional reputation. Many were only part- time teachers, as they were engaged in research or consulting in addition to their educational responsi- bilities. In spite of the emphasis on graduate work, the staff provided outstanding undergraduate instruc- tion as well. Ah! Lehigh ' s budding chemists try to find the identity of a quantitative analysis unknown by studying its spectrum. Qualitative and quantitative analysis is one of the basic courses for chemists.

' i The Department was formed over seventy years ago from the personal resources of Professor Weatherill, a famous chemist who was Lehigh ' s first chem- istry professor. The Chem Building, erected in 1887, won a prize in the great Paris Exhibition for being the best-constructed chemistry building in the world at that time. (It vied for this honor with a building in Zurich, but won because of the familiar chimneys , an excellent ventilation system). Plans are still being made, however, to modernize its features. One such innovation, for example, will be the establishment of better instrumentation by moving all instruments to the same floor, where they will be more easily ac- cessible. The Student Chemical Society, open to all students of chemistry and chemical engineering, is the oldest such organization in the country. Almost all graduate chemistry students were members of the Lehigh Valley branch of the American Chemical Society, as Lehigh is accredited by this organization. Both societies pro- vided further enlightenment to their members through monthly lectures and meetings. Classical languages Student Chemical Society Student Chemical Society officers Al Jarossy and Dick Htmghwout discuss meeting plans. Important contributors to our own tongue Greek and Latin have somewhat lost their place of universal importance to education which these lan- guages enjoyed a few centuries ago. Nevertheless, Lehigh ' s Department of Classical Languages found that a number of students were interested in their study. Majors in the field of classical languages were few, and were usually men planning to prepare for the ministry. The Department attracted mostly arts students, although an occasional engineer or business- man was found in the ranks. Aside from the regular courses in Greek and Latin, consisting mainly of grammar and vocabulary, the De- partment presented a variety of related courses which students found quite stimulating. These included courses in the history and culture of the ancients and the study of great Greek and Roman writers. The so- called dead languages still lived on at Lehigh, chal- lenging the patience of students as in the past. Joseph A. Maurer Earl L. Crum, Head of the Department 44 Education A hope for tomorrow Many students, especially those in the College of Arts and Science, came to Lehigh with the noble idea m mind to pass on what knowledge they obtained to future generations. It was the job of the Department of Education to help these men to get ready for suc- cessful careers in teaching. The Department dealt solely with purely professional courses in education, although it did make suggestions to departments in- structing the subject matters which the individual stu- dents were aspiring to teach. After completing the De- partment ' s program, the students were prepared to enter teaching under the educational systems of Pennsyl- vania, New York, New Jersey, or any other state of their choice. The unimpressive and often unnoticed building houses one of the seven departments in Pennsylvania which are authorized to present courses in the admin- istration of public schools. These courses, designed mainly for graduate students, included training for positions of superintendents, principals, guidance coun- sellors, and school psychologists.

Burke Severs English With good reason did the Department of English boast the largest department in the University. It had the immense responsibility of giving the entire student body a working knowledge of good English, an indis- pensable facet of any college education. In addition to this large teaching load, the Depart- ment served the University through its divisions of Speech and Journalism. The Debate Team, Mustard and Cheese, the Brown and White, and the Epitome owe much of their success to these divisions of the Department. Naturally, size alone was not enough to enable the Department to do its job well. A capable staff is the prime requisite for all good teaching. The Department had such a staff, which included authorities on various specific aspects of English. Many books, articles, and critiques flowing from their pens gave evidence of strong intellectual activity within the Department. The Department ' s work began during Freshman Week, when the unwitting new-comers were subjected 46 Students in Speech 30 learn how to keep their audiences awake by catching the viewer ' s eye as well as his ear. Simple, colorful visual aids add a great deal to a speech. An essential ingredient of the college education Head of the Diiisio i of Speech H. Barrett Davis to a battery of placement tests. The results of these tests determined which of the following three courses each student would take. A number of unfortunate persons who had head- aches ' or similar other ailments on the day the test was given displeased the Department by indicating that their knowledge of English wasn ' t quite up to par with Lehigh ' s standards. English helped these men brush up on the fundamentals of grammar and got them started on the right foot in the techniques of writing. In addition, another section was designed especially for foreign students to help them acquire a good knowledge of the English language Those upper- classmen in the College of Arts and Science who had developed sloppy writing habits soon found themselves in a section similar to these, where their faults were doctored up. The bulk of the Freshman Class, however, entered English 1 and 2, courses in which the honors of writing frequent long themes and of sweating through im- 47 Head of the Division of Journalism Joseph B. McFadden promptus and the hurdles were spiced with the ribald antics in Chaucer ' s Canterbury Tales . Even the hard- est workers found that in these two courses an A was ordinarily denied to mere mortals. Whenever A ' s did occur in freshman English, they generally could be found in the English 11 and 12 sections. There, themes were less frequent and the students, those who did well in the placement tests, enjoyed informal discussions of the great works of world literature. Although freshmen were probably the Department ' s largest concern, upperclassmen also had a choice of many valuable and interesting courses. The purely prac- tical courses — Business Letters, Communications in In- dustry, and Technical Writing — were quite valuable. The courses in speech, journalism, and drama also had wide appeal among students. Without a doubt, how- ever, the field of literature was the one most thoroughly covered by the Department. As many as 12 different courses covering virtually all types of literature attracted mainly English majors, who had the advantage at Lehigh of not only enjoying a truly fine program by authorities on the subject but receiving individual help from the instructors as well.

Fine Arts Appreciating perfection Besides instructing over .1 tenth of the student body. Lehigh ' s Fine Arts Department rendered many other important services to the University and the community. By radio and TV programs, and exhibitions of Lehigh ' s art collections, it shove to foster a greater interest and appreciation of art among the students of Lehigh, and aided in developing better relationships between town and gown. Founded about thirty years ago. the Department offered courses in the history of architecture and the study of art. It is intently looking forward to being able to grant degrees in Architectural Engineering in the near future, as many fine students who become in- terested in the field are presently being lost to Lehigh. Alvin R. Rosser Francis J. Quirk, Head of the Department Geology Interpreting the earth we live on Any student — businessman, arts major, or even en- gineer — had the opp ortunity to gain a good under- standing of the physical structure of his world by subjecting himself to one or two semesters of geology. Is.isu fundamentals and principles of geology taught 111 introductory courses acquainted the student with the study of minerals, fossils, topographic maps, and gave him an inkling of problems to be tackled in more advanced courses. Practical problems, such as geolo- gists might meet in building tunnels, dams, and foun- dations or in controlling floods, were met in Lngineer- ing Geology. Historical Geology was .1 more academic course and dealt with theories of evolution based upon ti sslls. In the more advanced courses, such equipment as the polarizing microscope was used in identification studies; main problems in the utilization of ground water resources and water runoff were investigated; the physical and chemical aspects of soil science were Head r f the Department Bradford W ' iii.ard treated with reference to plant nutrition and soil con- servation. Even the weather, the eternal standby for everyday conversation, was ground through the mill again in Meteorology. The only difference was, of course, that instead of discussing whether it was going to rain, geology students analyzed air masses, cold fronts, wind systems, and other conditions of the at- mosphere before deciding to see what the paper had to say. Future fossil finders got their first practice in such courses as Advanced Paleontology, where prep- aration and identification of fossils took place. Many geology courses were spiced with labs which varied in popularity and ranged from discussions of sample fossils to field trips. Runoff patterns, erosion effects, features of topography, as well as examples of rock types were investigated on field trips. By the time a Lehigh student finished a geology course, he was, above all, thoroughly familiar with the ancestry, life history, and composition of all sorts of rocks. Geology students investigate the pedigree of a formation which to the uninitiated looks like a garden variety of toe stubber. First Row: Bradford Willard, Kenneth B. Knowlton. Second Row: Hugh R.

(Handler Lazenby John S. Tremper Head f the Department German Language, literature, and culture The German Department was set up to meet the needs of the engineer as well as those of the arts man who wanted a background in the language, culture, and literature of the Germanic peoples. More than the usual language courses were offered. There was Scientific German for the engineers, in addition to conversational, composition, and literature courses for those who were serious in their study of German. Interest in the fundamentals of reading and proper grammar was fostered through the reading of modern German literary works of popular authors. Supple- mentary discussions of German news and editorials, and similar diversions promoted in the individual an even greater assimilation of the precepts and principles of the German language. Dcr Deutsche Verein. now in its forty-second year, is an independent student activity which helped stu- dents carry out studies of Germany, its people, and its language.

History and Government Past and present define the future The great French philosopher and educator Michael Montaigne once said, The object of education is to make not a scholar but a man . The Department of History and Government strives to attain this maxim by giving Lehigh men the opportunity to obtain a general picture of the development of various fields of human endeavor through the medium of history. This fact was especially evident in The Development of Western Civilization, a course required for all freshman engineers. Students taking this course pro- claimed that all they learned from it was to sling the bull during tests. What they failed to realize was that this slinging often represented the achieve- ment of the Department to make them think through and analyze what facts they had absorbed. Similar courses were available to students of all classes and fields of study. Their importance cannot be over- emphasized, as it is a fact that major industries are getting more and more interested in engineers and scientists with a broad cultural background. Of course, the Department had its purely scholastic aspects, too. It offered majors in American History, Head of the George D. Department Harmon Settled: Ernst B. Schultz, George D. Harmon, W. Appelton Aiken. Standing: John MtV. Haight, Raymond G. Cowherd, William W. Kenawell, George W. Kyte, John E. Davies, Willard R. Yates, Rocco J. Tresolini. European History, Government, and a General Major, which was a combination of both history and govern- ment. Students who, by majoring in one of these fields, especially that of government, prepared themselves for the study of law could find ready acceptance in such schools as Harvard, Yale, or Penn. The courses also provided a basis for a future in government service, journalism, or teaching. A number of full-time and part-time students were engaged m graduate study of both history and government. They were aided in their work by Lehigh ' s extensive library, which espe- cially excels in its collection of material concerning eighteenth century American colonial history. The Department ' s staff was quite active in research and in composing historical works; some of its mem bers have already obtained national reputation through their writings. Besides such incentives and opportunities to increase his knowledge ottered through Phi Alpha Theta and the Political Science Assembly, the student of history or government had an unusual goal for which to strive. Each year, outstanding students were selected by the Department to participate in the Washington Seminar Program. Those who were selected spent one semester in Washington, where they, through the cooperation of American University, had an unusual opportunity to study the American government in action.

International Relations Foreign policy and International law Descriptions of cloak and dagger diplomacy proved the most popular offerings of the IR Department. Not only was Russian Diplomacy an extremely appropriate topic to study, but also the course was attractive to many who were looking for a simplified schedule devoid of unnecessary loads of homework. Am used audiences listened to Professor Auric Dunlap ' s version of President Roosevelt ' s controversial discussions with Winston Churchill and Joseph Stalin at Yalta. Current events were made somewhat less confusing as the completely different view historically taken by the Russians in the long standing East-West cleavage was revealed. Equally important, although perhaps neither so simple nor so captivating as the study of Russian in- trigue were the subjects taught by Professors Wilson Godshall and Carey Joynt. Here the foreign policies of all the world powers and the basic international law upon which a code of legal procedure underlying inter- national contracts were discussed in greater detail. Antonio Lapitan Carey B. Joynt Aurie N. Dunlap Wilson L. Gods ha i. l Head of the Department mathematics and Astronomy Essential foundation for all engineering sciences In touring the campus, one could nor help noticing the vast and towering structure of the Mathematics ami Astonomv Building. This building was also known tor its historical value, since it formerly housed the old Health Service, v. huh subsequently abandoned the quarters and turned them over to the Mathematics and Astronomy Department. Even though the impressiveness of the building may have been disputed by some people, the structure housed one of the largest departments on campus. The importance of the Department to the Lehigh student cannot be underestimated. To all science and engineer- ing students, mathematics served not only as an im- portant tool but as the very backbone of their training. All engineers had at least four semesters of mathe- matics. This program was split up into one semester of algebra and analytic geometry combined, and three semesters of calculus, a perplexing subject involving the transition from one plus one equals two to the strings of incomprehensible symbols without any inter- Heacl of the Department Geori.e E. Raynor An infinite amount of work mas- ters the whims of the infinitesimal quantities encountered in cal- culus . mediate steps that can be found littering the pages of mathematical journals. Differentiation, integration, and differential equations soon became as familiar as mul- tiplication and division to the undergraduate engineer. The freshman was thus introduced to a dosage of mathematics, frequently seasoned with a babble of for- eign accents. Various weird geometrical shapes ranging from simple parabolas and hyperbolas to complicated cardiods and lemniscates began to make sense on graph paper by the end of the first semester. After a brief so- journ in the maze of lines and planes in space, the freshman, in most cases, was ready to t.ukle first semes- ter calculus. Elementary differentiation and integration paved the way for advanced study. Interesting and often taxing practical problems involving related rates also provided many puzzling moments for the under- graduate mathematicians 55 1 WF First Row: Ti Yen, Gerhard Rayna, Arthur E.

Business students found this combination of man and calculating machine a difficult one until recently, when the greater dis- tances covered by the professorial staff of the Math Department necessitated separa- tion of the well known pair. A certain few went on further and delved into the mysterious realm of advanced calculus, where the sky was the limit as far as pure theoretical reasoning was concerned. Mathematics was also helpful to the business stu- dents, as it helped them determine their profits, and, alas, losses. The mathematics of finance, ranging from simple and compound interest to the evaluation of stocks and bonds, soon became second nature to the aspiring businessmen. Even the arts men found mathematical methods use- ful on occasion. The theory of probability came in very handy on a weekend in Monte Carlo, in matching coins, or the Friday night poker session with the boys. In short, mathematics was a fundamental constituent of the education of all Lehigh men. I Newtonian Society First Row: Bonnes, West, Wagner, Vice-President ; Scarl, Pres- ident: Robert C.

Schempf, Head of the Department Robert B. Cutler A rich heritage The accomplishments of the Department of Music were truly amazing in spite of the fact that it did not offer a degree in music and since its staff consisted of only two instructors. Every Lehigh student appreciated the services which the Department rendered in the form of various concerts, presentations, and, of course, in the training of the Brown and White Band. In addition, Professors Schempf and Cutler offered a wide and varied program in the study of music to many students. Courses ranged from elementary music instruction to theories of music and instrumentation. The most popular of these was the Introduction to Music Literature, a general survey of music. Others included a course in symphony, which delighted its students with about six visits to concerts of the Philadelphia Orchestra, and a course on Bach and Handel, which was integrated with the renowned Bach Program. Philosophy Logic and Ethics— realm of the intellect Thomas M. Haynes Howard J. Ziegler, Head of the Department Adolph Grunbaum Philosophy, contrary to popular opinion, is not a subject too deep for the average undergraduate to absorb. The heart of philosophy is the process of intel- lectual analysis through which the generalizations and assumptions commonly accepted as basic theories un- derlying every artistic field are investigated, evaluated, and thus clarified. At Lehigh, the courses in logic, con- sisting of both the elementary and advanced levels, are especially dedicated to this task. In the classroom itself, the ethereal thoughts of the world ' s great philosophers were crammed into the stu- dent ' s whirling heads through the medium of disciplin- ed, open-minded inquiry. The general traits of reality, the significance of human experience, and the place of man in the universe were soon more clearly understood, as the realization of this understanding was the primary purpose of all the courses in ethics and philosophy. Physics The inanimate forces of nature challenge the student Laboratory work is an important part of all Lehigh physics courses. These students, using an optical galvanometer, learn the fundamentals of scientific methods and laboratory techniques. Lehigh ' s Department of Physics has indeed been suc- cessful in striving toward its main objective, namely to run the best undergraduate department in the country and to couple this with an outstanding graduate pro- gram. Its major program in Engineering Physics is one of the oldest in the United States; when Lehigh granted its first bachelor ' s degree in this field thirty years ago, it was among the earliest institutions to do so. Its undergraduate enrollment has grown rapidly since the war. and. at the present time, the Department ranks among the largest in the northeastern United States. The Department ' s contribution to the Lehigh en- gineering student has been substantial, since, together with mathematics and chemistry, physics lays the basic foundation tor all of the entrineeriiiL; sciences. The Department also has long offered broader and less quantitative courses in physics for students in the Head of the Department Frank E. Myers K Seated: Frank E. Myers. Standing: James M.

Colleges of Arts and Science and Business Adminis- tration. As originally conceived, the curriculum in Engineer- ing Physics differed from the usual physics curriculum by its heavy emphasis on laboratory work and mathe- matics, together with a general engineering back- ground instead of the customary collateral training in the classics and the liberal arts. It still adheres to this conce ption. The graduate department was particularly distin- guished by the fact that, unlike physics departments of many other schools, it did not spend time and re- sources building cyclotrons and other huge machines of nuclear physics; instead it concentrated its efforts in giving its students a thorough training in fields of classical physics which were most important for in- dustrial and academic development. Lehigh was one of the first schools to establish a student section of the American Institute of Physics. This organization has long aided the physics student in acquiring professional competence and a more com- plete knowledge of his field. Together with the de- partmental colloquium, it has brought many outstand- ing speakers to the campus for discussions of prob- lems on the advancing fronts of science. 60 Thurman R.

Not too long ago, psychology was indeed almost considered black magic, but it is rapidly developing into a new and mature science. In fact, many business students found its study quite advan- tageous; Psychology in Business was especially de- signed to analyze the psychology of the consumer, and the problems involved in advertising and selling. Even engineers, especially those aspiring managerial posi- tions, benefited from courses in psychology, in which they learned principles of human behavior. Of course there were also a number of students majoring in the held, whose interests lay not only in pure psychology but also in psychiatry, employment, and labor relations. A number of Lehigh students discovered an unusual way to earn extra money by submitting themselves as subjects for the Department ' s research. They were usu- ally led into a pitch-dark room where they were con- fronted with flashing lights, strange objects, and other weird doings, which tested their responses. Dr. Nathan B. Gross, associate professor of psychology, lectures to his students tluring an early-morning class. William Vaughan, Nathan B. Gross, Theodore Millon, Arnold M. Small, William L.

Religion Man and God There was a time at Lehigh University when every- one was required to take a course in religion; also, the Chaplain was the sole religious instructor. That day is long past and in the intervening years the De- partment has grown and broadened its scope. Students from the various fields of arts and sciences, engineer- ing, and business administration Studied religion in order to gam a more well-rounded education, while the pre-theology students learned the basic structures on which their faith and the faith of other religious orders was founded. Aspects of religion which a Lehigh student could study included biblical studies, involving both the Old and New Testaments; the history of religion, a far- reaching subject encompassing Hinduism, Buddhism, Taoism, Confucianism, Islam, and Judaism, as well as Christianity. Many of the religious problems of today ' s modern world, such as the existence of God and the power of faith, were discussed and analyzed in an effort to arrive at a conclusion that would satisfy both the scientist and the theologian.

What had ever gotten him into this predicament? 63 •: CADKT Igakizat prf -W- fc It had all begun before his freshman year at Lehigh. Dream- ing of the glamorous and thrilling life of an Air Force officer, he had signed up with the Air Force ROTC program to complete his required military training at Le- high and perhaps to continue in the advanced program. During his freshman year, the new cadet learned many interesting, though sometimes difficult topics, such as the principles of flight, classes and types of military aircraft, and global geography. Overcoming in- itial difficulties, he began to enjoy the strict discipline and order of his weekly drills and soon found himself joining the Air Force Sabre Society, where specialized drill practices led him to join the Society ' s crack drill team.

Sophomore Air ROTC students prepare to go aloft. The sophomore year ' s AFROTC courses included techniques of aerial warfare , atomic weapons, and careers in the Air Force. The cadet gratified his interest in hunting by |oining the Air Force Rifle Team and participated in numerous pistol matches. Near the end of the year, he took the final step — he decided to under take the advanced program. As he had a good scholastic average, was thought to have good leadership potential, and passed the rigid Air Force physical examination, he was accepted in the program. Thus he entered his junior year. Just as he had learned the art of obedience while an underclassman, he now acquired the skill of command, not merely by listening to lectures but by practicing leadership on the drill field and in the classroom. Principles of leadership were further stressed through the medium of leadership labo- ratory periods. Subject material became more complex: such inpus as techniques of instruction, the military justice system, and the evolution of warfare had to be mastered. He soon became quite proficient as a cadet and was elected into the Arnold Air Force Society, a national AFROTC! honorary organization.

During summer camp, AFROTC cadets get the feel of what will soon be their commands. multiple-guess tests; the first few drills, before he be- came used to them; the humiliation of demerits for the minutest of defects in the appearance of his uniform and for many other crimes of the slightest order. Yet the memories of the Mil Ball, the thrills of his first air- plane flight when he was allowed to take over the controls for awhile, the glamor of a promising career in the Air Force . . . He was abruptly roused from his day-dreaming back to the not-so-glamorous reality by the resounding blast of reveille. Out he went into the tropical heat to do his round of morning exercise, his drills and practices, and similar tribulations of summer camp. The lot of this typical, though fictitious Lehigh Air Force cadet was really not to be pitied. The rough train- ing of summer camp, as well as the previous experience gained through Lehigh ' s AFROTC program would combine with his final senior year instruction to mold a qualified, well-trained leader in the Air Force Reserve. Many men such as he are sorely needed for our nation ' s defense, because the present military equipment and the tactics of atomic warfare are so complex that only highly skilled officers can be entrusted with positions of command. 66 ROH-Rrmy Spit and polish, drill and parade Head of the Department Coi.. Albert C. Molter The Department of Military Science and Tactics was formed in Lehigh in 1919 when an Infantry unit was established; Ordnance and F.ngineer units were added subsequently. Because of Lehigh ' s requirement for all freshmen and sophomores to take military training, a large portion of the student body came in contact with the Department. Its main concern was the training I potential future officers for the U.S. Army, and success in the attainment of this objective was shown by the interest of a considerable number of men who con tinued ROTC beyond their required two years. Such men succeeded in obtaining valuable training ultimatelj leading to a second lieutenant ' s commission. The troubles of a typical student began with his first drill period; he had never handled an Ml before and it seemed that every time a command was j,i vd he had two left hands in trying to execute it. Hard work and unpleasant weather often combined to make the cadet ' s life miserable during drills. The cleaning of his M-l proved to be another disconcerting task; despite de First Ron:- Capi.

De- merits lurked in all directions — offenses, ranging from wearing socks of a wrong color during drills to falling asleep in class, brought on a deluge of gigs upon careless students. The experience, training, and disci- pline which were thus drilled into the cadet were well worth the tribulations, as these laid the necessary foun- dations for a future officer. Many a cadet who showed unusual interest in mili- tary matters pledged Pershing Rifles and, after a week of early-morning drilling, was initiated into the order. The valuable experience in leadership gained through Pershing Rifles was to stand him in good stead in the years to come. In the sophomore year, training became more com- plex; the assembly and functioning of the BAR, the light and heavy machine guns, and other crew-served weapons were studied. Midway in the second semester, students desirous of continuing their military training went through a series of stringent tests.

During their junior year, these men received still further instruction in crew-served weapons. They also became familiar with certain phases of the art of war, and went through a thorough study of all branches of the Army. The six weeks of summer camp at Fort Meade were quite an experience for the advanced cadet. It was a little hard to get used to at first — getting up at 5 A.M. was definitely ideal. Expecting to get away from classes, the future officers found to their dismay that they also had eight hours of classes a day at Meade. Difficult tactical problems, night maneuvers, and mock battles added to their consternation. Early in the senior year, outstanding military students were inducted into Scabbard and Blade, an honorary society. Much of the junior year training was reviewed and intensified, while new material, such as psycholog- ical warfare and military teaching methods, was also studied. These advanced junior-senior courses com- bined with principles of leadership and discipline to mold an intelligent leader who could handle himself and his men, no matter how difficult the situation. Romance Languages Fluency in tongue promotes understanding in mind The Department of Romance Languages offered the Arts and Business Administration majors a chance to absorb the culture of foreign nations through the study of a particular foreign language. Courses were offered in French, Spanish, Italian, and Portuguese, while de- grees were also awarded in French and Spanish if a student desired to major in either of these fields. Lan- guage classes were limited in size to permit oralaural instruction; as the classes were conducted only in the foreign tongue, the students were encouraged to think, talk, and live the language; thus, in time, the language became second nature to them. Supplementary reading was correlated with the rhetoric learned in class through extensive study of the history of the nation ' s litera- ture. The use of audio-visual equipment, tape record- ings, records, and language films provided the oppor- tunity for the students to attain proficiency in the lan- guage of their choice. William H. Bohning, Allen J. Barthold, Head of the Department; George D. Farne, Herbert A. Isar. 70 One of the most distinguished scholastic honors which a Lehigh student can receive is membership in Phi Beta Kappa. Although this organization primarily honors academic perform- ance in the liberal arts, a number of business and engineering students obtain membership also. Since men are elected mem- bers only after seven semesters of study, the honorary consists mainly of graduates and faculty members. Phi Beta Kappa owes its prestige partly to its long and significant history. Founded in 1776 at the College of William and Mary, it was the first Greek letter fraternity, from which all others were later derived. It was at first a social, as well as academic organization, although it soon began to place in- creased emphasis on its academic aspects. Lehigh ' s Beta chapter was established in 1887.

They could have discussed the theory of trans- portation, the fallacies inherent in statistics, the effect of the multiplier upon the propensity of the marginal to flunk Economics, or any number of similar topics, for all of them were business students, but all preferred to let these wait until the bell rang. Their collegiate world of theoretical business admin- istration was somewhat unique. Those on the steps learned that businessmen have headaches which could be prevented by sound investment, good advertising. wise labor practices, and other policies they learned in class. The bell rang and the youthful entrepreneurs tiled up the steps to practice their accounting, statistics, or mastery of finance, in hopes that they could avoid future headaches and depressions.

Head of the Department Dean Carl E. Allen 73 Recounting An essential for good business management Head of the Department Roy B. Cowin Lehigh ' s College of Business Administration has for a long time been on the approved list of colleges whose graduates are qualified to take Certified Public Account- ant tests. The fact that Lehigh graduates have in the past been quite successful in passing these tests is some indication of the quality of Lehigh ' s Department of Accounting. With a small but well qualified staff, the Department strove to keep abreast with the best ac- counting schools in the country. Elementary accounting courses were required of all business students, to whom the subject is, of course, indispensable. Many engineering students, however, also signed up for courses in accounting, as they realiz- ed the extreme importance of the economic aspects of their future occupations. The Accounting Society provided an opportunity to extend education beyond the formal classroom atmos- phere. Seated: James E. Wert, Carl L. Moore, Eugene C. Hassler. Standing: Francis M.

Economics and Sociology A study of basic social and economic forces Economics and Sociology are justly considered the twin sisters of business study. This combination is de- signed to enable the business graduate to enter the business world with a sufficient background of knowl- edge to be able to predict, using the present and past as a basis, what the future will hold for his firm and the economy as a whole. The infamous courses, Economics 3 and 4, well- known to engineers and businessmen alike, strove to provide an understanding of the powers of supply and demand. The most unpredictable mysteries of the sophomore year were the true-false, multiple-guess hour quizzes. Fortunate indeed was the student who entered the cjuiz with a flipping coin blessed by Lady Luck. The complexities of moving the manufactured prod- uct from the assembly line to the consumer was describ- ed in Marketing and its related courses. Retailing, Ad- vertising, and Transportation. Marketing itself dealt with the major institutions and functions involved in the distribution of goods through the most desirable channels at the minimum expense, while also insuring the maximum security and certainty that the product would reach its destination at the appointed time. Head of the Department Herbert M. Diamond T Iii the spring, a young man ' s fancy turns to many things, many of which are discussed while relaxing on the steps in front of Christmas-Saucou Hall. Then, with the product having reached the hands of the seller, the art of retailing, including the principal methods of retail organization, was studied and digested. The principles, problems, and practices of modern ad- vertising, coupled with the economics of transportation by rail, highway, water, pipeline, and air, were also correlated in order to derive maximum benefit from each course. In addition, advanced courses in Business Manage- ment taught the student the ins and outs of coordinat- ing the different business operations, while Dr. Dia- mond gruffly and concisely summed up the history of the American Labor movement as being a desire, in the words of Samuel Gompers, for more, more, more . The Sociology Department endeavored to acquaint the business student with social organizations and pat- terns of those sociological concepts which would be useful to him later on in dealings with groups. Here the student with an eye for the future became a virtual business psychologist, as he delved into the mechanisms of group behavior and social interaction. First Ron:- Herbert M.

The primary course in this series was Money and Hanking, in which the business student became acquainted with the mechanisms and problems of com- mercial banking, as well as the function of international exchange. The course usually considered most benefi- cial for engineers was Corporation Finance, wherein the business student had the pleasant company of his technical classmate throughout the intensive grind of absorbing all there was to know about a firm. The field of investments also constituted an integral part of the course as, in order to make money grow, one must be willing to invest it. Related subjects ranging from the stock market to state taxes were discussed and analyzed. 77 Seated.- Franz, Heidenreich, Secretary: Carl E. Allen, Faculty Advisor; Marra, President: Concilio.

In line with its objective of creating interest in the field of business, it concentrated on keeping its members abreast of new and interesting developments in the field of practical business ad- ministration. By means of a series of lectures, field trips, movies, and addresses by eminent businessmen, the society broadened its members ' knowledged by bringing them face to face with interests and problems outside the scope of regular classroom instruction. In addition, the society tried, in a small way, to aid the outside busi- ness world by conducting and promoting research in the field of business administration. Only sophomores with an average of 2.5 or higher or juniors with a 2.0 or better were eligible for initia- tion, since membership in the society was limited to upperclassmen who had sufficiently high academic qualifications. The old gray mare on the edge of campus, Christmas-Saucon Hall, Lehigh ' s oldest building, houses the College of Business Administration. Beta Camma Sigma Honors a select group of businessmen Senior businessmen who have demonstrated superior ability in all their courses at Lehigh and who show leadership qualities are eligible for initiation into Lehigh ' s local chapter of Beta Gamma Sigma, Business Honorary Society. As expressed in the constitution, The purpose of this association shall be to encourage and reward scholarship and accomplishment in the field of business studies among students and graduates of col- legiate schools of business; to promote the advancement and spread of education in the science of business, and to foster principles of honesty and integrity in business practice . One meeting of this business counterpart of Phi Beta Kappa was held this year. This event, a dinner meeting, was enhanced by the presence of an outstanding busi- nessman as a speaker. Lehigh ' s chapter has long been fortunate in being able to draw from a large reservoir of successful alumni for this annual honor. rhomas Wyckofl Applegate F.

A sudden jab in the ribs aroused the drowser; he got the cold eye of his professor who then proceeded to chastise the class say- ing in his monotone, if this doesn ' t excite you, you have no business wasting your money taking engineer- ing ; the head slumped down again. Later that day he reflected, perhaps the professor was correct — un- locking even the least complex of Nature ' s secrets was exciting. Hadn ' t science and technology advanced within a few centuries to the point where Man now had at his command an infinite supply of power to use either for self destruction or for the reduction of his miseries. But he thought also of the enormous drudgery behind the spectacular discoveries of Science; of years of computing and of numerous failures; then he turned to his lighter problems involving the immediate future and did his back homework for the next day ' s quiz.

After several semesters, Chem E ' s will readily admit that the Building serves as a second home. Chemical Hard work masters At the very start, Dr. Foust told the aspiring Chem- ical Engineers that the going would be tough. He in- tended to graduate only those capable of accomplishing the tasks he proposed. The Chem E. Department would recognize only those who were well versed in phases of manufacture involving chemical and physical changes of materials, from theoretical research to business or- ganization. The process of elimination began with Qualitative and Quantitative Analysis. For years henchmen in the Chem Department had ably assisted in setting up the difficult first hurdle. During and after this ordeal many left the ranks for an easier life in Metallurgy, Business, or Arts. The many still interested in continuing were next confronted with Stoichiometry, a mathematics of chemistry course which derived its toll, and then with Organic Chemistry, another contribution of the Chem- L.

Those- who stood the test were proven Chemical Engineers. Proceeding with greater confidence through Unit Operations, Thermodynamics, and Chemical Kinetics the students learned to reduce manufacturing operations to their fundamental theories and processes. The mys- teries of an important, but amazingly complex industry became common knowledge to most of them. The group of students pictured below was usually less glum. Before Christmas they held a lively party at the Chor , presenting amusing take-offs on Dr. Foust and his cohorts. During their regular monthly meetings they listened to guest speakers who discussed the practical problems of the industrial world, helping them develop professional pride in their chosen field of study. Chemical Engineering often demands very close control of temperatures. These three students are noting the temperatures of a mixing operation.

Civil Engineering summer camp, involving land and topographical surveying, was the undergraduate CE ' s first chance to put into practical usage the theory he had absorbed during the scholastic year. Parched throats and mosquito bites made the work all the more interesting. Summer camp was just one part of the Civil En- gineering curriculum that produced graduates capable of designing, planning and building highways, sky- scrapers, bridges, and various other construction proj- ects. Subjects pertinent to both basic engineering in general and Civil Engineering in particular were studied with special emphasis being placed on courses in struc- tural design, hydraulics, transportation, and sanitary engineering. Through the use of approved electives, the student was provided with the opportunity to de- termine his interest and aptitude for research. Courses in speech and technical writing aided in the develop- ment of the ability to state clearly and concisely one ' s thought in a technical report — a talent of great im- portance in the professional world.

Mechanics itself was a vital necessity to all engineers as it was the foundation on which much of the ad- vanced training was established. Long hours spent struggling with the problems of statics and dynamics were an integral part of the sophomore year. The juniors found mechanics of materials and fluids, com- plete with labs, even more challenging. These courses were designed to instill in the students a scientific method of thinking. He was encouraged to attack each problem as if it were an actual engineering situation; thus training his mind for the future. American Society of Civil Engineers First Row: Balbach, Kerr, Roger E.

Bewi.ey When asked which curriculum he was thinking of taking, the freshman responded matter-of-factly, Elec- trical Engineering . His questioner, a senior business student, shrugged his shoulders sympathetically, in- wardly questioning the sanity of this mis-counseled youngster. Hadn ' t the poor fellow heard of the repu- tation of this Department? Was he the type that really enjoyed doing homework all night? Had lie ever met Dean Be w ley? His questions were normal. All Lehigh traditionally maintained a fearful, but sincere respect for the depart- ment headed by this man, who, assisted by Joseph Teno, Howard MacFarland, John Karakash and several others, succeeded in training students as qualified engineers in First Row: Howard T.

Consequently the Depart- ment worked both student and teacher close to the elastic limit. In the words of Dean Bewley, To this end the Department was kept in a perpetual state of incipient rebellion . Fortunately, the rebellious spirit of the EE ' s was directed into more productive channels by additional homework and fifty-page lab projects. A select few of those who labored long and hard under the Packard Lab regime were inducted into the ranks of Eta Kappa Nu, the EE honorary. Admission was gained through superior scholarship and general engineering ability. The initiates, all tried and true Bewley ' s coolies, could easily be recognized by their yellow Chinese hats and flashing lights. The AIEE and IRE, a combined professional society, offered further exploration into fields of electrical pow- er and communications. Speakers from large companies added to the knowledge of the members facts about design, development, and operation of equipment. When it was all over, the electrical engineer had experience in harnessing electricity economically for the advantage of Man. He knew something of the com- plex electrical equipment which was becoming increas- ingly more important in today ' s age of power. First Row: Roberl E. Heiland, William A. Smith, Arthur F.

Industrial Engineering Streamlining industry for modern efficiency IE ' s rely on modern devices such as tins movie projector for time and motion study. Late that night the IE put down his paste brush and pencil and surveyed his masterpiece. At last it was finished; the result of many hours of dreary calcula- tion and careful planning was spread out before him. covering a considerable part of the table. This was his plant layout project, an important hurdle in the mastery of a type of engineering which combined ex- acting mathematical analysis, a knowledge of business fundamentals, and a liberal allowance of electives in one broad education. The combination of these factors into a unified whole resulted in the improvement of the general standard of living as the direct result of increased individual worker productivity. Through the economical use of technological improvements and scientific principles, this basic aim of industrial en- gineering is realized. The domain of engineering in Packard Laboratory became his second home, where he was instructed by a very capable staff in the art of industrial engineer- ing. Numerous supplementary courses in the realm of business administration produced a firm foundation of academic material which prepared him for managerial positions m industry. 89 Alpha Pi Mu Sealed: Charles W.

His preparation was practical; as a senior, for ex- ample, he was given a chance to test his knowledge of time and motion study by actually filming and tim- ing an assembly operation. Occasionally, his suggested revisions were ones which eliminated waste motion of economic importance to the company observed. However, IE did not deal only with the problems arising in an industrial society when the unpredictable human factor was responsible for the amount of profit obtainable from the efficiently mechanized world of the assembly line. The IE learned other basic industrial subjects, such as quality control and accounting as well. His senior year included one of the most extensive of the engineering inspection trips. Touring the Phila- delphia area, the IE saw all types of operations, rang- ing from the Stetson Hat Company, to the Bayuk Cigar Company. The AIIE, besides fulfilling the normal moral obli- gation to its membership by holding monthly meetings infallibly, ended its year on a gay note at its Spring picnic.

Without an enormously complex system of machin- ery which economically harnesses power, by miracu- lously transforming heat and electricity into motion, we would still be restricted by such inconvenient and unreliable sources of power as the rickety windmill and plodding oxen.

The drawing of circles never had so much meaning as in ME 2. where the fundamentals of mechanical motion were described on the drawing hoard. Juniors renewed acquaintance with Professor Eichelberger early in the year, when he walked into classes with a bullwhip in his hand, jokingly threatening, This is the policy of the ME Department . Those taking advanced machine design courses found that the joke wasn ' t so funny, as they struggled through spring design, gear trams, and the numerous pitfalls of empirical and theoretical design, Professors Frank Kreith and James Eppes were among those who gave juniors and seniors a basic knowledge of thermodynamics, which would later help them unravel the mysteries of steam tables and entropy charts. Professor Thomas Jackson followed this up with an exposition of power plants and internal combus- tion engines. Added to all this was lab work, which gave a practical dimension to classroom theory, hesides consuming main ' afternoon hours. Professor James Hartman, who administered the ME program, saw to it that his students received a well- rounded education.

Lehigh ' s Metallurgy Department has grown rapidly since its founding in 1888. Under the guidance of some well-known men, the science of Metallurgy has been advanced considerably within Williams Hall. Joseph Richards, Bradley Stoughton, who is still engaged in furthering the study of metals although now an octo- genarian, Gilbert Doan, and, at present, Allison Butts have directed the Department to its present position as one of the largest and best known in the country. The alchemistry of the past has given way to an organized study of the several phases of metals tech- nology. Professor Butts told seniors of the merits and John H. Gross, Robert D. Stout, Francis H.

Holding notes nearly as ancient as the floor upon which he stood, the expert extolled the virtues of King Copper. Speaking for the other side of the industry, Dr. Stout taught Iron and Steel from ore to I-beam. (lasses learned that steel making still involves consid erable art. Following iron and steel through the Beth- lehem Steel plant, juniors were given an opportunity to see the enormous blast furnaces, dirty sintering plants. Fascinating rolling mills, white-hot open hearths, and other important components of one of the nation ' s largest plants. Between the two extremes. Dr. Joseph Libsch taught Physical Metallurgy, enthusiastically outlining the basis of metals science and alloy theory. He saved the more practical Industrial Metallurgy for the seniors, reveal- ing the secrets of metal fabrication to them just before graduation. For several months before Christmas the seniors watched their instructors closely; the Met Society was gathering material for its annual banquet. This method of obtaining good-humored revenge for ambiguous quizzes and long labs portrayed the eccentricities of the faculty. At more serious moments the Society helped broaden the students ' knowledge of the subject.

Brune mining Engineering A scientific search for buried treasure Coxe Lab is the mystery building of the campus. Off course for nearly all engineers but the miners, the small building stands quietly to one side of the campus, a department unto itself, undisturbed by an influx of other engineers as were all other departments, other than Industrial and Chemical Engineering, which offer courses required for a BS in Engineering. In spite of, or perhaps because of the small number of students and a two-man faculty, EM ' s received a good education. They learned about the extraction, exploration, and primary preparation of the varied minerals so necessary to our present civilization. Those interested in mining production learned how a mine operates; how ventilation, transportation, ad- ministration, and mineral preparation are geared to modern mass production methods, rather than to the old-time pick and shovel techniques. An option in Engineering Geophysics stressed ex- ploration and prospecting, teaching the theoretical analysis behind the scientific location of valuable minerals. Geology is closely related to mining. Meetings of the Howard Eckfeldt Society provided a chance for miners and geologists to meet on common grounds. Speakers from government and industry revealed top- ics of interest to both groups. Dr. Gallagher ' s small department did its job effec- tively.

Tau Beta Pi The ' Bent ' symbolizes academic success for Engineers Ever since its foundation at Lehigh over seventy years ago, under the guiding hand of lulu aid Higgin- son Williams. Jr., the Alpha chapter of Tau Beta Pi has upheld its standards of scholarship, service, integ- rity, and general versatility. Membership in Tau Beta Pi is the highest honor which can be bestowed upon an engineer as Tau Beta Pi corresponds to the honor- ary liberal arts fraternity, Phi Beta Kappa. Require- ments for membership include a 3.0 cumulative schol- astic average, engineering interests, and useful outside activities. As a service to the University, the chapter conducted sink- rule classes for freshmen and provided tutoring assistance. All Lehigh men have seen the white Bent which the fraternity erects at the traffic circle during its pledge week. The Bent ' s disconcerting habit of occasional mysterious disappearances has caused frequent frustra- tions to the fraternity. During pledge week, all pros- spective members must wear brown and white identifi- cation ribbons, coats and ties, and must hie and polish a brass version of the Bent .

I liuing Croups Dormitories and Fraternities The door slowly swung shut, and then latched with an audible click, while his parents ' footsteps echoed hollowly through the brick and stone corridor. And now he was alone, alone in his new domain which ap- parently consisted of only a desk, a chair, and a bunk. That day his parents had moved him in, along with a colossal amount of clothing, notebooks, and various other paraphernalia designed to guarantee a smooth launching to his college career. The frugal, almost Spartan simplicity of the room shocked him at first; there were no rugs, no soft-cushioned chairs; the fa- miliar comforts of home had been left at home — this was college. Such was the introduction to college life. The severed ties with home life were not immediately forgotten, nor were friendships immediately made to replace those built during the years of secondary schooling. However, the resultant state of mental depression was short-lived, as there were many others who wished to escape this sense of loneliness and insignificance. The days passed, and soon the room began to take on new color and luster through the medium of various calendars, and street signs. There was also comfort in the companionship of roommates, movie friends, meal- time companions, and numerous acquaintances newly acquired. The temporary feeling of insecurity soon gave way to a strong feeling of belonging. Bull sessions prospered in the relaxed atmosphere. And then came the books — Newton ' s Laws, English themes, account- ing problems, and unfinished drawing plates. These rather effectively compelled confinement to the desk for extended periods of time. Fraternity rushing, athletics, and extra-curricular ac- tivities further expanded the world of the freshman, confusing, and yet broadening him. Then came the entrance into the world of the fraternity. Wherever the Lehigh man ires, hull ses- sions play an important educational part of his life. He will find bis narrow-minded outlook broadened considerably by thor- ough discussions of subjects ranging from antique cars, and girls, to History 11 and 12. All Lehigh men pud that they must de- vote much of their time to studies as this Delta Chi is doing. All work but no play. ... These Theta Delts have found one advantage of fraternity life, a private pool hall. 101 Interf raternity Council Spokesman and governor of thirty fraternities Spokesman and governor of the thirty national fraternities which comprise Lehigh ' s fraternal family, the Interfraternity Council met bi-weekly to discuss and iron out the myriad of problems which confront any living group system. Each fraternity held one vote in the body and was represented by its president and another representative. A prime function of the Council was the establishing and enforcing of rules regulating its members in mat- ters of rushing and dormitory contacting of freshmen. Many freshmen found fraternities vying for them with almost cutthroat competition; thus the IFC rushing regulations were instrumental in helping freshmen reach a sensible, unprejudiced decision in the choice of their fraternity. Both rushers and rushees this year found welcome relief in IFC ' s new decree prohibiting rushing and contacting from 10 AM Sunday to 10 AM Monday. At the completion of the two-week rushing period, IFC once more assisted these men in making an uninfluenced choice of bids. Even during the pledg- ing period, IFC extended its guiding hand to protect its new subjects by instituting proper hazing regulations. IFC members felt the need this year for a more rigorous program of self-discipline. As a result, a re- organized Judiciary Committee investigated several cases which previously would have been settled by other authorities and took positive action on them. Through the annual Beat Lafayette display con- test, IFC added color to the campus on the days preceding the big game. Delta Tau Delta ' s Cyclops won top honors this year. In its role of undergraduate spokesman, IFC took a firm stand against a proposed limitation on the posses- sion of automobiles by students. A Council-sponsored statement was made to voting members of the Faculty to discourage adoption of such a proposal. The Annual IFC Weekend in March was a memo- rable affair effectively demonstrating the ability of fraternity representatives to work together in presenting a social event for the entire campus.

Exchange dinners keynoted the weekend Friday eve- ning for members of the houses which were not snowed in, while new pledges attended a dinner for the combined Lehigh pledge classes. Dinners were also held to enable various house officers to discuss the problems of their office with their counterparts in other fraternities. Saturday afternoon was enlivened by a jazz concert featuring the Spring Street Stompers with their Williams College brand of Dixieland, while a Mustard and Cheese production of Twelfth Night Saturday evening brought an enthusiastic reception from many of the weekenders. Capping the week-end was the traditional Monte Carlo Dance in Grace Hall. Croupiers on the main floor entreated couples to use the games of chance to parlay into large fortunes the stage money which all received upon entering. Upstairs in the Hall the Richard Maltbv band lent its pleasant sound to the atmosphere. The fraternal spirit present was typified by the house flags hanging side by side on the walls and by the giant-sized pledge pins which lined the ceiling. Ably assisted throughout the year by Dr. Aiken. IFC proved to the Administration that students are capable of managing their own affairs in a sensible and re- spectable manner.

All play and no work is the unfortunate miscon- ception entertained by many people in regard to fra- ternities. Under closer investigation, however, fraterni- ties will be found to be closely-knit groups of college men which hold their own among their non-fraternity colleagues with respect to scholarship, intra-mural athletics, and extra-curricular activities, as well as be- ing the leaders of campus social life. Perhaps the greatest advantage of the fraternity sys- tem is the semester of pledgeship required of each candidate for memebrship. This gives the fraternity, as well as the pledge, an opportunity to re-examine the relationship and determine whether it is satisfactory before any serious moral or financial committments are made. In most houses, the pledge period is one of con- structive criticism and essential work for the chapter. And last, but not least, the fraternity does offer a full social life and excellent living conditions — all made possible through the collective financial effort of the total group. The individual finds that he is not taxed too heavily, and yet he lives in an attractive physical plant and exists on a better-than-average level of everyday living.

Alpha Chi Rho Phi Mu Chapter Although Lehigh ' s Big Brown went down to a muddy defeat under the onslaught of the Lafayette Leopards, the Crows of Lehigh had their own revenge. Friendly inter-chapter rivalry between fraternities having chapters at both schools is common, but Alpha Chi Rho added something new and different to the long-standing compet i- tion. On Sunday after the Lafayette game, the first John Sutherland Memorial Game was played. Lehigh avenged the varsity ' s loss by beating the Lafayette chapter 12-0. Per- haps the experience gained in winning laurels in League A of the interfraternity football competition enabled the Crows to make such quick work of their Leopard brothers trom Easton. AX P .„ ,.

A member of the Class of ' 56 gets to know the older men of ' 06 who are back for their fiftieth reunion. The meeting of young and old does much to keep ATO strong, for the enthusiasm of the alumni is rekindled each time they are welcomed home to Alpha Tau Omega.

It singing was an indication of house spirit, then the Betas must be overflowing with fraternity spirit. For three consecutive years they have won the IFC singing con- test. Starting last spring in March, a roup of ten or more of the more vocal members began to brush up on the songs of Lehigh and Beta Theta Pi. Under the direction of a student song leader frequent practice ses- sions were held. The competition for the IFC song contest is intense among the houses which take . n active interest in singing. The Betas faced stiff competition from their neighbors, the Phi Delts, but wowed the judges and retired the singing trophy at the same time. b en 109 Chi Phi Psi Chapter A strong fraternity system generally ma- tures from early planted roots. At Lehigh, which has as strong a fraternity system as any school in the East, the roots were first planted by Chi Phis. From 1872 to 1892 the fraternity was merely a dining club for the school ' s athletes. In 1892 Chi Phi moved into a house downtown, where it remained until moving up on the hill into its present beautiful stone house in 1923. This single fraternity seeded a movement which less than 100 years later was to include thirty houses capable of housing over 900 men. A modest beginning gave birth to a system of living which has reaped great rewards. X s First Row: Schmidt, Clawson, Peterson.

This is not the case with Chi Psi, which has always had a very interested alumni group. The Beta Delta Building As- sociation, composed of loyal alumni, has maintained the house in excellent shape over the years. Support is not only financial, how- ever, for each year the house is crowded over Lafayette Weekend with alumni and their wives who have returned to keep their School spirit alive and briefly reawaken the memories of sehool days long past. Such a continuing active interest has helped keep Chi Psi Strong over a long period of time. X  P 111 Lafayette Weekend As usual, Lafayette Weekend caused a major disturb- ance in normal campus activity. In the fraternity world preparations for the two-day occasion began weeks in advance when alumni were invited to attend Saturday afternoon cocktail parties and buffet luncheons. Many hours were spent in the planning and construction of the mechanical gadgetry which depicted the downfall of the obnoxious Lafayette Leopard through a variety of displays. Although Lehigh has no official homecoming, the traditional rivalry with Lafayette always provides sufficient excuse for a return visit to the campus to witness a performance which easily rivals that of most homecomings. The Pajama Parade, parties at the ' Chor, renewal of old acquaintances, the pageant of displays, and the cocktail parties comprise the week- end. Unfortunately, the game itself, like the horrible weather that has accompanied it for the past several years, has become merely a topic of conversation. The record of Lehigh teams on the normally muddy gridiron has been notably discouraging to those who are inter- ested solely in seeing their Alma Mater win; but this is only part of the excuse for creating Lafayette Week- end. Phi Sigma Kappa ' s tall display could be beard many blocks away as it noisily proclaimed the coming defeat of the Leopards. Delta Tan Delta ' s ' ' Cyclops won first place in the IFC display contest.

Delta Chi Lehigh Chapter iu£ l This year recently-chartered Delta Chi celebrated its third birthday. Only six years ago a group of students in Price Hall who had become close friends within the con- fines of that ancient building decided to form Rho Eta, a local fraternity. After Dean Palmer ' s death, the new fraternity moved into the house he had occupied on campus. In 1952 the local became the Lehigh chapter of Delta Chi, a firmly-established national fraternity. Despite the ever-present danger of being engulfed by the road-widening project above the house, and while competing with the high standards established by the older fraternities at Lehigh, the house has more than held its own.

At least this has been the ex- perience ol the Delta Phis, who annually team up with the Kappa Alphas and Sigma Phis to celebrate the ancient history ot ' their common origin at Union College. Historical facts add little to the life of a party, except possibly the excuse tor holding it. Perhaps the best indication ot ' the success ot the event was that Delta Phi ' s neighbors complained, in a rather narrow-minded way, to the Uni- versity ol the noise raised by members of the Triad who held forth in the Delta Phi basement until late in the night.

Delta Sigma Phi Beta Theta Chapter Parents, although necessarily removed from the fraternity scene most of the time, have done a great deal to improve conditions in many houses. The Delta Sigma Phi Par- ents ' Club, founded a few years ago, rep- resents the ultimate in parent interest. Scho- lastic improvement has not been given up as a lost cause by the group. Rather than accept a gradual decrease in the quality of their sons ' report cards, the parents have encouraged improvement by dangling two twenty-five-dollar rewards before the chap- ter — one for achievement, the other for im- provement. This inducement may be one of the causes of the present high scholastic standing of the Delta Sigs.

Mechanical wizardry and artistic ability were combined to cook up a fine display. The front lawn featured a sinister one-eyed monster who methodically stirred an evil looking witch ' s kettle. In his other large, hairy hand the creation held a limp leopard which was suspended by its tail preparatory to a hot dousing. Cy (lops ' , as the fifteen footer was named, earned the Delts the well-deserved first place spot in the IFC display contest. ATA First Ron: Meseke, Lewan, Jennings, Henderson, Richtberg, David- son.

Following a long winter of parties geared to a clientele with greater capacity, the members shared their enjoyment this year with the orphaned youth. On a Saturday morning the kids were driven to the chapter house and taken for a walk around South Mountain. Following this, their restlessness was stemmed by a baseball game. When refreshment time rolled around, the DU ' s rolled out a keg — of birch beer, which was possibly a remnant of a dry rushing season — and proceeded with a hot dog roast. This ended a very active day for all concerned. AT 118 .

In a short two- week period, Lehigh fra- ternity men must choose a group ot freshmen which will keep up the reputation of their house. Rushing is a hectic, contusing, but very necessary nuisance. While to the fra- ternity rushing is a means to continued ex- istence, it is also a very important activity to freshmen on the other side of the pic- ture. Many freshmen were barraged with names, faces, and facts until they were thoroughly contused. KA ' s eased the rush- ing process somewhat by printing a booklel which briefly described the members of the house and other important features of Kappa Alpha. A rushee using the booklet as a star! ing point found considerably more to talk about than the usual, Where are you from? What are you studying? type I small talk. K A 119 The fraternity. . . a college home Looking back over his college education, the frater- nity man generally regards fraternity life as one of the high points of his college experience. Despite the inevitable horseplay, the long rushing meetings, help week , and other trials of the system, the association with a fraternity normally is a very enjoyable one. There is something about the fraternity atmosphere which makes it more than just a place of beds, desks, chairs, and couches where the student deposits his body, his The flagpole provides a rendezvous where hope- ful Greeks-to-be get rides to off-campus houses for the luncheon meal. Music lovers at Phi Sigma Kappa find the piano a good place to congregate. 120 hooks, and Other important possessions and settles down to loin years of concentrated study. Although physic all) the fraternity may be marred with dust and cob-webs in the corners, peeling paint on the ceiling, warping floors, and othei scars ot years of hard use, there is something about the general spirit which makes all this pleasant. Perhaps it is shared experiences which hind together a brotherhood — the hocus-pocus set. rets ot initiation ceremonies, the secret handshakes, the house clean-ups. pledge duties and numerous other co- operative performances. Then too, there are the more tangible manifestations, in the form of brotherhood borrowed shirts, shared cigarettes, and numerous other practical expressions of the fraternal spirit. Fur- thermore, the operation of a self-governed unit which purchase- thousands of dollars of food and other house- hold items annually, hires its own cook, plans its par- ties, and engages in a very active extracurricular pro- gram requires close co-operation and a sharing of re- sponsibility. All this, and more, provide the basis for one of the most enjoyable of college experiences. Pi Lams use their leisure hours to keep track of their investments.

Kappa Sigma Beta lota Chapter Houseparty was eagerly anticipated by most fraternities as the biggest social event, if not the biggest occasion of the year. Kappa Sigma decided upon a Bavarian Beer Party as its theme for Fall Houseparty. Naturally this was quite appropriate for the occasion, since whatever the theme of the party — whether it be a pajama game, A Dogpatch Holiday, or any one of a hundred more or less original themes — the basic beverage would be the same. On Saturday night the members and their dates arrayed themselves in loud suspenders, feathered hats, colorful dresses, and other regalia fitting and proper for the occasion. Thus attired, they pro- ceeded to party in the best Bavarian tradi- tion, into the wee hours of the morning.

Phi Sigma Kappa Nu Chapter Gradually the Sayre Park area of the campus is being rilled with fraternity houses. The latest fraternity to begin building is Phi Sigma Kappa. Starting in December after a long fund-raising campaign, the brick struc- ture is rising rapidly from the ground above Chi Phi. Completion of the thirty-man house is expected by September 1956. The Phi Sigs are naturally quite excited about mov- ing from the shaky Victorian edifice which has been their cross-town home for many years. Although accustomed to the shoe leather-preserving comfort of the auto- mobile, the Phi Sigs happily face the prospect of the twice-daily climb up South Mountain to their home high above Bethlehem among the quiet of Sayre Park ' s beautiful trees. £ 2 K 126 Pi Kappa Alpha Gamma Lambda Chapter Houseparty was not the only means bj which Lehigh fraternities entertained them- selves. Between these extravagant all-Univer- sity affairs individual houses sponsored then own dances occasionally. One ot the biggest social events of the year tor members of HiKA was the Dream Girl Dance. Last year the recently established tradition was held at the Bethlehem Hotel following a cocktail party. At the stroke of twelve, alumni who judged the contestants announced the win- ner, who was chosen from three girls which had previously been nominated for Dream Girl Honors.

A mythical man from Mars, dropping into the mid- dle of the fraternity section of Sayre Park on a mild Saturday evening at about 1 1 o ' clock might conceivably find himself st randed in the midst of one of Lehigh ' s most abnormal festivities. Surrounded by roving hordes of people looking more like an entourage of Ringling Brothers Circus than the normally pictured serious- minded Lehigh students, the stranger would undoubt- edly be confused by the hectic nature of the event. Soon, however, he would realize that his weird appearance made it easy for him to merge unnoticed into the harmless mayhem of the evening. He would find him- self taken up by the singing, shouting, drifting masses, most of which are attired in costumes ranging from completely unimaginative dungarees to the latest in South Sea Island grass skirts. The reason for all this is simple — there comes a time in every college man ' s life when his studies, extra- curricular activities, and other constructive endeavors must be shoved aside in order to relax and release the tensions of the normal work-a-day grind. At Lehigh this periodic disruption, perhaps the product of tem- porarily obsessed, malfunctioning, overworked minds, breaks forth violently each semester. Even sacred Sat- urday classes are cancelled, so that the process can roll on undisturbed, and die of its own exertion as soon as possible. The Broun and White climbs on the band- wagon with a special Houseparty issue; the Dean of Students extends the curfew from 2 A.M. to 3 A.M.; and students leave their comfortable living accommo- dations to make room for their dates. In short, a Theta Chis interrupt their wild Indian actions for a few minutes to pose for the photographer during Fall Houseparty. semi-annual eruption friendly, happy spirit prevails where, on the same mountain just a day or two before, lectures in account- ing, geology, and chemical engineering were being delivered. Each living group lias its own wee kend theme which supplements the theme of the dance. Revelers often have their choice of attending anything from a Ship- wreck Party to a Dogpatch Part) ' , while Sigma Phi sup- plies the really all-prevalent theme for their party, a House-party Party. On Friday night before the dance, living groups sponsor cocktail parties, champagne parties, or perhaps beer parties in order to keep con- sistency with the rest of the weekend. Saturday after- noon there are picnics on the Little Lehigh Parkway, a Tea Dance at Leonard Hall on Saturday night, and Dixieland concerts on Sunday. The average Lehigh student sees eight houseparties come and go, and with them the big name bands, hun- dreds of attractive women, plenty of fraternities, and smaller bands which cover with volume what they lack in name — to say nothing of finances. Before the Saturday evening rush, a happy couple dispense ginger-ale and other refreshments from behind I beta Xi ' s well fortified bar. Anyone for root beer? . . . It seems the Delts ran into a bit of difficulty during Fall Hoiiseparty. The sign states their case. First Row: Packman, Silberman, J., Marcus, Corbin, Kaplan, Klein man. Stein, Silverton.

Pi Lambda Phi Lambda Chapter gaggiStegjI pl safes The Pi Lam swimming pool has long been the scene of routine pranks and other harmless aberrations of normal college life. When the Bethlehem smog clears late in Spring better uses are sometimes made of this unusual bit of fraternity real estate, but for the most part the over-sized bath tub lies dormant due to the weather. How- ever, last Spring the Pi Lams took advant- age of some pleasant Houseparty weather to fill the pool and set the scene for a re- freshing buffet lunch which was enlivened by band music from a porch above the pool. Despite the pleasantness of the occasion, temptation won over the pranksters, for soon the pool was filled with people. n a 130 Psi Upsilon £te Chapter it Fiw Roto; Austin, Treasurer; Vohe, Vice-President; MiAbee, Presi- dent; Kuhns.

First and foremost on the list was the salvag- ing of a musty, dark cellar which was trans- formed into a modern bar and recreation room. To accomplish this feat, the Sam- mies utilized the convenient services of the sophomore pledge class. Substitution of this beneficial project for the old-style hazing spared the pledges ' hides, and contributed an object of lasting value to the house. The walls of the large room were pine-paneled and the floor and ceiling were tiled. A stylish pine-paneled bar added a refreshing touch to the revamped basement. The 1955 pledge class will long be remembered for its fine job. First Row: Engelhard, Arkin, Jules, Treasurer; Spitzer, President; Kaufman, Secretary; Anderman, Witmondt.

Many factors enter into the selection of a chapter sweetheart. At Lehigh ' s Alpha Rho chapter not only are beauty and person- ality considered, but also the interest which a girl has shown in the house itself. Any girl pinned to a Lehigh Sig is eligible. Each year in the Spring the entire chapter votes to determine the winner, who eventu- ally finds herself the favorite of at least forty collegians and a big part of one of the fraternities most celebrated traditions. 2 X 133 Sigma nu Pi Chapter Sigma Nu has traditionally been one of the most athletically-minded houses on cam- pus. To a certain extent its roster and that of the Football Team were one and the same, for nine members of the Team, in- cluding quite a few of the stars, resided at Sigma Nu. The Baseball and Basketball Teams were also well represented. Those who were not active in intercollegiate ath- letics helped win the Interfraternity All- Sports Trophy, an honor monopolized by t he house for the past several years. How- ever, emphasis on athletics did not detract from the scholastic standing or the good times had by the house. In fact, the common interest in sports held by most of the mem- bers strengthened fraternal ties. First Row: Rahn, Higgins, Wagner, C.

The Lehigh imagina- tion has discovered some novel ideas to stave off com- plete boredom on these occasions. In numerous ways, gestures of unselfishness have spread the joys of fraternity parties outside the confines of the closely-knit brotherhoods. The animal kingdom is honored annually by Phi Delta Theta, which celebrates the birthday of their aging Lena, the long-time Queen of the campus canines. This year ' s version included such well-known celebrities as Tau, Rusty, and Pi, as well as two new- comers to the campus animal society, Rat , the rodent- like dog of the Sigma Chi ' s cook, and Albert, an alli- gator from Pi Kappa Alpha. Before Christmas vacation, many houses held parties for underprivileged children from Bethlehem orphan- ages. Frequently, the brothers find these affairs more strenuous than the run-of-the-mill blasts, chiefly due to their efforts to guide the overwhelming enthusiasm of the invited guests along non-destructive channels. Parents ' Weekends, held at least once a year at every house, gave parents a chance to enjoy fraternity hos- pitality. These and other variations on the time tested formula of football and wrestling parties, accompanied with beer and pretzels, enlivened social life immensely. For one weekend a year, at Lena ' s birthday party, Lehigh goes to the dogs. Phi Delt ' s mascot is shown here celebrating her thirteenth birthday with her campus canine friends. 136 A cool Fall evening combines with a refreshing cocktail piirt) to make an enjoyable evening for the ATO ' s.

Sigma Phi Epsilon Pennsylvania Epsilon Chapter Fraternities in the United States represent a great investment, involving thousands of students who spend millions of dollars an- nually to live in and make use of the valu- able facilities generally provided by alumni. In the fraternity world, SPE is a giant with 133 chapters linking college campuses from coast to coast. Although Pennsylvania Epsilon is but a single link in this vast chain, it is nevertheless an important one. Members of the chapter, by supporting their national organization, helped maintain two camps for underprivileged children, and contributed to other causes of good will. Although size in itself is not necessarily an advantage, the SPE ' s have directed the growth of their huge organization into bene- ficial channels. V £E 138 fail Delta Phi Tau Chapter All work and no play is an outmoded educational formula which adds up to a very dull school life. On the other hand, a policy of .ill play and no study soon fills the mails with section three ' s and requests for the presence of the laggard in the Dean ' s office, prior to flunking him out of school. The Tau Delts have managed to keep the happy medium between the two extremes. For the past several years they have been near the top of the fraternity scholarship list, maintaining at the same time some ex- tremely successful intramural teams and an active extracurricular lite. They have been among the tew houses to be successful both in work and play. T A First Ron: Topper, Handler, Klein. Via President; Scarl, Presi- dent; Cohn, Secretary; ( ramlall. Shoh, I Ron.

Throughout the year the Theta Chi house combo provided entertainment for the Saturday night flings. The usually conservative Theta Chis put away their books in favor of parties enriched by the tones of a five-man musical group which pounded, strummed, and tooted its way to fame within the house. Without the well appreciated efforts of groups like these fraternity parties might be quite dull. Theta Chi was fortunately well endowed with musical talent. As long as the bar rafters hold the combo will contribute enjoyable entertainment to Theta Chi social life.

The house is both the only fraternity founded at Lehigh and the only Catholic fraternity here. Members of the Newman Club, back in 1919, decided that a common social life and a homelike at- mosphere would be a great help in fostering religious and scholastic ideals while at col- lege. The organization which they formed amalgamated with Kappa Theta at Penn State in 1922, starting the growth of Theta Kappa Phi as a national fraternity. From this modest beginning has risen an outgrowth of twenty-two chapters, serving Catholic students all over the country. First Ron-: Sehulster, Concilio, Jablonski, Vice President: Vander- valk.

Fraternity scholarship is more likely to o from had to worse, rather than to im- prove; at least this is what statements released by the Dean ' s office indicate. Just as soon as a house forgets the importance of scholarship, a downgrading cycle begins which is difficult to stop. However, Theta Xi last Spring managed to prove that a re- emphasis on scholarship can work wonders. The house rose from twenty-seventh place. almost at the bottom, to sixth place .imon« the thirty fraternities. For this achievement t lie chapter earned a citation from the presi- dent ol the national fraternity. Realizing the importance of good scholarship, the brothers continued to strive to maintain their high rank. s 143 takes freshmen a few weeks to become accus- tomed to the long climb up to Dravo House. Centers of college life Strung out across the middle of the campus, the residence halls are geographically segregated from the on-campus fraternities by a steep upward climb, and from the off-campus houses by a long downhill walk. Fraternities and residence halls prove similar in many respects. As their principal function, both provide a home away from home with adequate and comfortable study facilities for students. Bull sessions, all-night study orgies, and typical college pranks and mischief are products of both environments. Fraternity living more closely approximates conven- tional home life than the dormitory-type living of the Returning from the library after several hours of quiet study, or perhaps sound sleep, these students strike a familiar pose as they enter Dravo, Neither man nor beast may sleep in class, so this ATO and his friend do their dozing at the frater- nity house. The Beta Tbeta Pi bouse is one of the ten fraternity homes set among the trees in Siiyre Park. Eventually, the University hopes to locate all fraternities on campus. residence halls. All houses have complete living, din- ing, sleeping, study, and recreational facilities, which make them self-sufficient organizations. Each house keeps track of the group finances, and, in general, practices self-control and freedom, subject to the over- seeing eye of the Dean. Dormitory students, on the other hand, enjoy in some respects an even greater, but different type of freedom. They are more independent, being free from most obli- gations to group functions. In addition, they are not pressed for certain degrees of scholastic and extra- curricular achievement, although performance in these respects is maintained. All in all. both groups blend harmoniously, each contributing significantly to the Lehigh picture. Richards House provides a fairly good atmos- phere for serious stud).

Residence Halls Council All- freshman dorm experiment proves successful David Zierdt President Richards House V|K m i . m W H Mi. Mmm mmM I km mm Um Mm Am Y mmmm The self-supporting student representative group known as Residence Halls Council, or more popularly as RHC, was responsible for the governing of Lehigh ' s large and complex dormitory system, the residence halls. A new system for housing freshmen was in- augurated this year, a transition from the integrated dorm of both freshmen and upperclassmen to a segre- gated dorm housing only frosh. This innovation, which faced strong opposition when first introduced, proved itself overwhelmingly success- ful in spite of a number of obstacles. Dravo House, chosen by the Administration to be the site of the ex- periment, was controlled almost completely by fresh- men, each section electing a president who would also be a representative to the Freshman Cabinet. Outstand- ing students from the ranks of the upperclassmen acted as proctors and counselors, with a University instructor and the president of RHC residing in the dorm for supervisory purposes. 146 A major argument against the plan was that dis- cipline and scholastic standards would drop appreciably; however, this was just the opposite of the final out- come. The Dravo House average at the end of the fust semester was above that of the freshman Class, and the frosh were perhaps even better behaved than before, and the general Class attitude and spirit were much improved. A system such as this gave freshmen a chance to enter into University activities without being overly influenced by upperclassmen. Represented by students from their own Class, they governed themselves with .1 minimum of interference from counselors and proc- tors for the first time in Lehigh history. Leadership potential was quickly brought to the fore, and Class unity became a reality instead of just wishful thinking. Pleased with the result of the program, RHC has planned that Drinker and Richards Houses will also become all-freshman dorms following completion of the residence hall now under construction. These dorms will be organized in the same manner as Dravo House. Clustered together near the top of the hill the three- residence halls will become the center of freshman life. Most upperclassmen will then be housed in Taylor Hall and the new dorm. The unification of the Fresh- man Class will then proceed on an all-inclusive and not an experimental basis.

Its cement walls were stripped of their familiar ivy and painted for the first time in history. Brick by brick and stone by stone, the framework of the new building begins to fill out. Progress . . . Any alumnus of the tempos, or victim of the sopho- more squeeze , more than welcomed the announcement, made late in 1954, of construction plans for the new 29-4-man dormitory. The fund-raising campaign for the dorm was barely under way last April when excava- tion for the foundations was begun by R. H. Stoudt and Sons, the general contractors. At first, Taylor Hall residents were annoyed by the loss of their former parking lot, now the site of the new dorm, and also by the presence of noisy bull- dozers, power shovels, and dump trucks chugging past their windows at eight o ' clock every morning. In time, however, they became accustomed to the noise, and the entire University, appreciating the importance of the new addition, tolerated the resulting parking and traf- fic problems. Campus roads became muddied and jammed by the huge dump trucks, which were shift- ing around tons of South Mountain. Foundations were poured in June and July, and by September the first floor was raised into common view. Stone masons hammered away at their task all during the cold winter, and by April, the fourth and final floor had been added to the structure. Doubting students began speculating about the alleged completion date, set for September, but they were repeatedly assured The u tills of the new dorm go tip rapidly on a nmw production basis. by University Officials that the dorm would be com- pleted on schedule. While extremely interested in providing these addi- tional facilities as quickly as possible, the University has far from overlooked the task of improving the existing ones. In the past two years completely new and more comfortable furniture has been added throughout all the residence halls, and in addition Richards House and Taylor Hall encountered extensive face-lifting operations. The new dormitory, although just another strengthen- ing link in the growing chain of progress at Lehigh, will contribute significantly to our University of tomorrow . Thousands of hand-shaped stones form the four floors . . . The new dorm will end the sophomore squeeze which annually forces sophomores out of the dorms.

Drinker 4 Preceded by the loud and familiar cry — Eats Man!, the campus vendor makes bis evening rounds of the dorms. Whether students buy because they are actually hungry or because they are starving for a study break is not as yet known, although the latter case is suspected. The fare — milk, ice cream, mustard and cheese, orange juice, and several other nutritious items — has been the same for as long as most dorm residents can remember. Do you have two friends . . . ? ; A Drain man tries to set up a triple date for two section mates. Social life . . . Combined with intramural athletics, organized social life in the dorms helped to increase group spirit and make dormitory life more enjoyable. Houseparty, head- ing the list of activities, spurred numerous dorm parties and the RHC Saturday morning breakfast in Lamberton Hall, held after the dance. In November, RHC again stirred the dormant social scene by holding the RHC Dance. Although attend- ance was sparse, those who did attend found the event an enjoyable one. Other RHC dances held subsequently were somewhat more successful. A welcome innovation was sponsored this year by RHC and the Collegians. Spur of the Moment Drags , held in Drown Hall, gave dorm residents a place to take their dates after home football games and wrestling meets. Although the Residence Halls Council arranged the Many travel up to the Lookout for an overall view of Bethlehem, but the Grace hall balcony provides this view for couples during an intermission at the Fall Houseparty dance. The Drinker House lobby is piled high with an assortment of strangely costumed characters temporarily interrupted from their Houseparty activities. large organized functions, dorm sections and individuals provided their own entertainment at other times. Taylor Hall, for example, held its well-known annual Field Day. Although the event was dry this year, partici- pants had a rousing time. The various dorm sections battled in athletic contests, and competitions in ribald singing were held among freshmen. Riotous skits pro- vided further entertainment. Price Hall had a similar altair. Enterprising sections arranged for occasional ban- quets at Lamberton, Walps, or other near-by restaurants which cater to such affairs. Sometimes faculty members were invited to speak at these dinner meetings on Uni- versity attairs or other matters of interest. The somewhat sporadic dorm social life should acquire fresh vigor after the completion of the new- University Center, which will include good lounging and party facilities for the students. Joe!

The first year passes quickly . The opening of Freshman Week found some 700 Lehigh frosh trudging up and down South Mountain as they were herded by Cyanide through innumerable lectures, around confusing roads, and in and out of unfamiliar buildings. The experience was not too dis- concerting, however, and most of them maintained enough composure to learn the location of near-by movies, restaurants, girls colleges, and various other places of amusement and relaxation. Headquarters for most frosh activity was Dravo House, an experimental all-freshman dorm which housed about half the Class of 1959- The daily routine was broken by the Lafayette Weekend festivities, partly planned and supervised by freshmen. Near the end of the semester, tension mounted as preparation began for the first round of finals. The opening of the second semester found fewer engineers and an increased number of business and arts students. It was also the start of a two-week fraternity rushing period, an unforgettable time of a million handshakes and dry parties, familiar faces, and for- gotten names. In all, some 300 freshmen pledged Lehigh ' s thirty fraternities. If the Fall semester seemed short lived, the Spring semester passed even more rapidly. The approach of warmer weather was accompanied by a lethargic con- dition known as Spring Fever — nearly fatal to some. Having gotten this far was motivation enough, how- ever, and the freshmen struggled through a second round of final exams . . . and then they were sopho- mores. 168 Pajamas and dinks unmistakably distinguish this enthusiastic Lii- fayette Game Pep Rally audience.

Although it added no As to anyone ' s record, and caused occasional loss of sleep, it was nevertheless an import- ant and sometimes inescapable relaxation. Even though studies were abandoned in the shadow of looming hour quizzes these informal discussions were a significant part of the college education. Arguments which seldom settled anything, they sharpened wits, conveyed valu- able bits of information, and molded ideas. 173 J- iar-. s -. Tempos ere foc 9 , £0 ?e tomorrow First Row. Coon.

Tempo 3 175 Hctiuities Important supplement to book learning The neus of the cl i reaches hundreds of Lehigh men through the Brown and White. Vote! Join! Sing! Write! Attend! Act! Support! Participate! These are the incessant cries which ring out over the cam pus every Fall, boring their way into the hearts of even the most scholarly of book worms. A radio station, a student newspaper, post cards, letters, numerous bulletin boards, and personal solicitations all attempt to entice the Lehigh student to stimulate his intellectual activity and supplement his knowledge through membership in extra-curricular activities. At times instructors become frustrated by this ap- plication of student energy to causes they feel are non- essential. They say . . . imprudent use of time . . . spreading of talents thinly over too broad a scope of activity . . . pure waste! And their anguish is often justified. Unfortunately for the student cause, there are the joiners — eager beavers who rush into every phase of activity possible, only to find that beneath the glitter of these activities lie hours of detailed work, hours of practice, hours of boring meeting time . . . and fewer hours to spend studying. A disillusioned joiner does no credit to himself, his studies, or the activities of his choice. However, the importance of student activities can not so easily be dismissed. First of all. without campus politicians, capable student journalists, a very thorough music program, the entertainment offered by amateur thespians. opportunities to debate, and the chance to pursue almost any interest from sports to literature, Lehigh life would be reduced to a dull grind of figures, facts. .m l Formula. And perhaps even more important, extra curricular life at college offers almost every student an oppor- tunity to develop skills useful in post-college days. There is no substitute for assuming responsibility under conditions closely paralleling those found oft the col- lege campus in order to foster and accelerate the matur- ation process. 177 v o ) t r K mKi r The student voice 178 Braker, Smith, Collins, Murray, Ringgold, Haltenhoff.

Arcadia Presents student opinion to the Administration Sealed; Waechter, President. Standing: Haltenhoff, Secre- lory; titer. Vice-President; Olsen, Treasurer. Although the job of running and supervising the University is entirely up to the Administration, Arcadia, in its capacity .is spokesman for the entire student body, strove to influence University policies towards the besl interests of the students. The Student Council also played the vital role of coordinating all student activi- ties and the various organs of student government. The L955 Arcadia was elected in March and. after choosing its officers, proceeded to reorganize itself. Committees of similar nature were consolidated under group leaders and a sixteen-man committee was chosen to relieve Arcadia ' s heavj schedule. Even the process of electing future Arcadians received a major going- oxer. Instead of beinc elected and taking office in 16-Man Committee Sealed: O ' Such, Norlander, Vice-president: Bond, President: Wegen, Secretary: George. Stand- ing: Bartlett, Ramsey, Comber, Immel, Reed, Cole, Tretotola. March, the body is presently chosen in December and then assumes its position in the beginning of the spring semester. This change not only moves campaign- ing to a less-busy part of the year, but it also enables the new Arcadia to sit in on the old one ' s meetings for one month, giving new members valuable experience and preparation. Foremost in the eye of the student body this year were the activities of two Arcadia committees: The Parking Committee struggled with the Admin- istration in attempting to increase the students ' parking facilities. A survey conducted by its members showed many parking spaces reserved for the Faculty were virtually unused. The Committee also urged the Uni- versity to repave the Broughal parking lot and acquired estimates of the cost. These efforts, however, proved to be in vain. Similarly, the work of the Health Service Committee drew little action from the Administration despite the fact that a survey conducted by this committee showed that in 100 colleges contacted, 80% had twenty-four- hour infirmaries. It contended that the present Health Center has more than adequate facilities for such a service. Discipline Committee Wray H. Congdon, Chairman; Eichel- berger, Edward D.

Freshman Cabinet Guiding the frosh through the first year The Freshman Cabinet was the voice of the Freshman Class in University affairs. It functioned as a discussion group through which the wishes of the freshmen were made known to Cyanide and University officials. As a discussion group, with little legislative power, the Cabinet devoted its meetings to the consideration of problems involving the University and the students, making suggestions for action and improvements. The Cabinet was composed of one representative from Town Council, Alpha Lambda Omega, and each of the freshman dorm sections, with the exception of Drinker and Dravo. Drinker, which housed upperclass- men only, had no voice and since Dravo was entirely frosh, there was one representative for every twenty to twenty-five men. From the members of the Cabinet, thirty-three in all, was chosen the chairman who acted in the capacity of Freshman Class President. The Freshman Cabinet solicited blood from the Class Dick Cunningham, Cyanide Advisor: Joe Montville, Presi- dent; Carl Schier, Vice-President; Warren Bonney, Secre- tary-Treasurer. One of the Cabinet ' s more impor- tant jobs is the supervision of the freshman skits for the Lafayette pep rally. 182 Tirsl Ron:- Presiia, Bateman, Becker, Cunningham, Lawrence Whitcomb, fatuity Advisor: Shaner.

With Cyanide acting as advisor, the Cabinet made all the arrangements for freshman participation in the Weekend activities and carried out all the functions necessary to make it a success. This year the bonfire construction posed a slightly different problem as beaten-up furniture from the dorms was used instead of brush and trees from Sayre Park. The stacking of the material to achieve the maximum height was accomplished with the use of supporting trees. Any attempts by Lafayette students to burn the collected wood were staved off by the presence of twenty-four-hour watches which were posted from all freshman living groups. The Cabinet arranged transportation to and from the Lafayette campus for the two freshmen from each dorm section who participated in the tug-of-war. Skits razzing the men from Easton were evaluated on the two days preceding the pep rally, and the best one was picked in final competition at the pep rally on Friday night. Despite untraditionaJ results of the gridiron clash, the Freshman Cabinet successfully organized and car- ried out participation of the neophytes in the big weekend, The Cabinet is also responsible for the care and construction oj the pep rally bonfire on I pper Field. 183 Sophomore Cabinet Sponsors dink ess Dink Hop, snow- less Snow-Ball The Class of 1959 was sincerely grateful to the Sophomore Class for the first real opportunity afforded them to meet girls from the local area and nearby colleges. The Sophomore Class, as represented by the Sophomore Cabinet, sponsored the Dink Hop exclusive- ly for freshmen, to give the car-less f rosh a better chance to meet local talent . This undertaking required a great deal of planning and preparation. Letters were sent during the summer to Cedar Crest, Beaver, and Centenary Colleges, as well as St. Luke ' s and Allentown General Hospitals. Soon after the freshmen arrived on campus, they found them- selves bombarded with flyers advertising the dance. Representatives of the Sophomore Cabinet, selling tick- ets, confronted frosh from all directions. After the names of all participants had been received, the Cabinet proceeded with the task of matching girls with dates of approximately their own heights. At last, the big day arrived; five chartered buses brought the load of feminine charm to South Moun- tain, where it was eagerly awaited. The girls were introduced to their escorts and then proceeded to the questionable pleasure of a savory roast beef dinner a la Lamberton Hall. Walks through the campus by the frosh and their dates provided a pleasurable pastime before the dance. The Dink Hop got under way at eight o ' clock, when the couples moved into Grace Hall. Good music by Lehigh ' s own fourteen-piece band, the Col- legians, made the evening an enjoyable event. The Dink Hop was not the only effort of the Sopho- more Class to help out their little brothers . The Sophomore Cabinet played an important part in assist- ing the Freshman Cabinet with its initial problems. Another contribution of the Sophomore Class to Le- CABINET Seated: Rowe, Gratto, Edwards, Vice-President; Sweet, Secretary; Fawcett, President; Helfrich, Myers.

As in the Dink Hop, a large amount of effort on the part of the Cabinet was required to make the neces- sary preparations. Once more, an advertising campaign was put into action. Posters and hundreds of flyers made it almost certain that everyone knew about the coming event. The decoration of Grace Hall was a problem involv- ing hard work as well as a bit of engineering ingenu- ity . Long strings of tinsel stars were properly strung across the ceiling. An inevitable task created by the Sno-Ball theme was the construction of a giant snow- man. This was accomplished by the clever use of chicken wire and cotton. These preparations were interrupted by Thanksgiving vacation which necessitated a flurry of rushing upon return in order to finish before the bit: evening. The dance highlighted an evening of entertainment winch participants could enjoy for a single combined ticket. It was preceded by a presentation of Henry the fourth ' ' by the Mustard and Cheese players. Over 200 couples, including President and Mrs. Whitaker, danced to the music of Matt Gillespie. The success of the Sno- Ball was not at all surprising — the time and effort which the Sophomore Class had put into it made a failure virtually impossible.

Junior Cabinet Hours of planning produced Spring Houseparty The Class of 1957, too, had its share of responsibili- ties towards Lehigh during the past year, and it strove to assume and carry out these responsibilities with an effort to benefit not only the Class itself, but the whole University. The efforts of the Class were represented and carried out by its officers and the Junior Cabinet with the aid of many other interested Class members. These organs of class government were in turn sup- ported in their work by the administration, University officials and many organizations. The main problem which confronts every junior class each year is the organization of the Spring Houseparty dance. Consequently, this job proved to be the most difficult and time-consuming task which the Class had to master. Preparations for the dance began early. As the Cabinet sweated through many tedious sessions, a strategy of attacking the job began to take shape; schedules were set up, contacts were made, and a multi- tude of committees arose to divide and conquer this sizable task. After these mere preliminaries, the real work on the dance began at once. To turn out a four- hour dance of the calibre usually expected of Lehigh ' s Spring Houseparty, the committees had to prepare for the occasion long before time. The band committee, for example, spent hours listening to different bands and dealing with a number of booking agencies. Finally, the choice fell upon two excellent dance bands; this was the first time that two name bands were hired for a Spring Houseparty at Lehigh. Another committee that spent many hours in preparation was the publicity com- mittee. This group had to make sure that the dance was foremost in the public eye. The decorations group 186 Mopping up extra income for the Class treasury, a junior attempts to persuade some classmates of the advantages of buying a blazer. handled the choosing of the theme and let the contracts for the decoration of Grace Hall. Naturally, the dance needed its salesmen on the ticket committee, whose job included much personal contact. A committee was also necessary to select the Queen and another to select and invite the chaperones. The concessions and refreshments committees were also vital cogs in the dance ' s machine. All these combined efforts paid off in large dividends not necessarily of a monetary nature. Although the dance did serve to swell the treasury of the Junior Class, its function as a major part of the big Spring House- party Weekend represented an essential ingredient of Lehigh ' s social life. Foremost among the lesser-known contributions of the Class was the donation of one share to the new- University Center. The Class of 1957 was the first class to make such a gesture. Another activity of the Class was carried out through the blazer committtee. which made blazers available to all Class members at no protit to the Class. All these activities combined to give the Class and its leaders valuable experience and preparation towards the increased responsibilities which thev will have to face as seniors.

IS Senior Cabinet Planning the final year The 1956 Senior Class Cabinet met for the first time immediately after the class elections, which were held in the Spring of 1955. Thirty-four were chosen by the Executive Committee from ninety-some men who had petitioned for membership on the governing body of the Class. At the initial meeting, plans were formulated for Fall Houseparty, the first big project of the group. A head start was essential, since a good band had to be obtained which would be within the limits of the budget. In September the Cabinet met during the first week of classes and announced Sauter-Finegan as the House- party band choice and A Night in Hades as the theme. Decorations included a very impressive inferno effect. The evening was a big financial as well as social success. Besides Houseparty, the main business of the year was the collection of the senior assessment and the selection of a class gift. The Class officers begged, OFFICERS Seated: Bill Burgin, Secretary; Tim Gray, Treas- urer: Duncan Aspinwall, President. Standing: Art Sthaffer, Vice-President.

This aided the Class to pay the Epitomt for its section of the yearbook and also enabled the treasury to swell considerably with money needed to insure the success of other Class projects. The choice of the Cabinet was to continue the tra- dition of the Class Insurance Program. Teams were or- ganized to contact each senior personally. The result of the work of the nearly 100 contactors was very rewarding. A record number of subscribers signed up during the drive. As the year wore on, another drive was held to add more names to the list of participators in the Class Gift Program and a new project was introduced — that of arranging for Graduation Weekend festivities. Includ- ed in these plans were a picnic and a formal dance. The Cabinet was grateful for Professor John Haight ' s leadership and guidance in aiding them in many ways as Faculty Advisor. He was instrumental in helping to make the Gift Program the success it was, and helping also to organize the Class into an unusually close-knit and unified group. No pa), no picture. Mrs. Moral ec.

Hayes, Chairman; Joseph H. McFadden, Secretary; Waechter, Steele. Publications Keep Drown Hall humming It was a typical Wednesday afternoon in the Drown Hall basement. The newsroom was a beehive of activ- ity. Above the incessant clicking of the typewriters, the impatient voice of the Managing Editor bellowed bel- ligerently at an inefficient photographer, speeding him on a search for the missing Mountain View. Over in the corner, the Editor-in-Chief sat silently as he intently composed a book review for the editorial page, satiriz- ing a current campus problem. Amid the confusion of many people, all trying to figure how they could most effectively tell their part of the campus news in words and pictures, the Brown and White was written and made up in this setting twice a week. Less than a year ago, radio station W ' LRN was silenced by a minor government investigation. Sensitive receivers of the Federal Communications Commission had picked up excessive radiation coming from sup- posedly closed circuits. Working over the Summer. faithful W ' LRN engineers fed leakproof cable through University steam tunnels to the dorms so the station could re-open in the Fall. W ' LRN then continued its marathon programming which soothed, or at least kept awake, even the most nocturnal Lehigh student. The station fed music, news, sports events , and general in- terest programs from its complex electrical equipment to radios in the dorms twentv-four hours a day. The Hpitome, third of the publications, worked spo- radically toward its final April deadline. Into its small office poured the pictures and stories which were as- sembled into a permanent record of 1955-56 at Le- high. Numerous editors and their willing assistants did their jobs diligently, conducting an endless search for misspelled names and other imperfections in their work. None of these organizations would have functioned without business staffs. Aggressive business managers, aided by henchmen in sales, advertising, circulation, bookkeeping, and related departments, begged, bor- rowed, and sold to keep Lehigh ' s publications operat- ing in the black. Working with budgets which required a combined total of nearly 40,000 dollars, the jobs of the junior financiers were vital. The Board of Publications approved the programs, personnel, and budgets of these organizations. Its wise guidance prevented costly embarrassments due to rash movements on the part of students. Directly guiding all three communication media. Professor McFadden and Mr. Hutchins unselfishly gave their time to assure the success of these ventures. Al- most any hour of the day, one or the other, if not both, could be found at his desk in the Journalism office advising or chatting with someone connected with pub- lications. W ithout this help, invaluable experience would have been lost to main a student who had lab- ored in the Drown Hall basement. 191 Brown and White Fitting four days in ten pages Seated: Joseph B. McFadden, Faculty Advisor; Art Roth, Editor-in- Chief. Standing: Bill LeCIere, News Editor; Mickey Simon, Alan- aging Editor; Walton H. Hutchins, Faculty Advisor. Twice a week, every week of the school year, 3,200 students, faculty members, parents, and friends of Lehigh picked up a copy of the Broun and White and read — Hundreds View Fritz Lab Dedication ; 24- Hour Health Service Sought by Arcadians ; Bullets Bow in 21-18 Upset ; or other stories concerning hap- penings on and about campus. As an example of the work involved in producing these issues, take the labor that went into a typical Friday ' s issue. On Monday the news editor checked the University calendar of events and on the basis of this, plus the information given him by the staff, handed out assignments to the reporters. In addition to specific as- signments, the reporters covered beats, or certain phases of University and Departmental activity, and were ex- pected to remain alert for possible news items. The information thus gathered was sorted, molded into copy, and submitted to the Drown Hall Newsroom. Th is is the raw material which was synthesized into a newspaper. After being checked for content by the news or sports editors, the copy was often returned to the reporter with instructions to verify facts, supply certain missing infor- mation, or to rewrite it in whole or in part. The written material was then forwarded to the desk where it was checked for grammar, spelling, and style, and was meas- ured for length. After the article was positioned in the paper, and headlined, it was ready for the printer. Repeat this thirty times and the news and headlines are completed for one issue. This, however, was but one part of the total opera- tion. The editors had to determine the size of the paper based on relative amounts of news and advertising. Edi- torial policy was formulated and the content of the edi- 192 torial page decided upon. Stones had to be judged for news value and positioned accordingly. Pages were laid out; pictures were assigned, taken, and processed. Finally there was the time-consuming, but necessary task of rechecking all the assembled material. Frequent ly at two o ' clock Thursday morning one of the small group remaining discovered that a Story didn ' t lit; that a headline was unwritten; a scheduled picture hadn ' t come out, or one of the thousand and one other things that turn up to plague editors On Thursday and Friday the printer did his work, with members of the staff checking continually with him to handle typographical problems when they arose and to keep errors to a minimum. In addition to the editorial tasks, there were many jobs to be done, although not at the same time copy was being prepared. Advertising had to be solicited from local merchants and arrangements made with na- tional concerns; papers were delivered to some 2,500 students and faculty and mailed to the subscribers; funds of almost $19,000 had to be budgeted annually. The responsibility for the execution of these tasks fell to the business staff. Though public recognition of their work was not as great as that of their editorial cohorts, it was the members of the business staff who provided the very necessary foundation for the Brown and White. lt)49 I 7 8 I 10 I? 14 15 II 17 If 19 uimn an anx The Desk where many a brilliant piece of Brown tS: White prose jails victim to the editor ' s reel pencil.

Program Variety— 24 hours a day Music Director John Hood and Station Manager Hank Taylor discuss recent additions to the Station music library. The station has over 6,000 records in its library. The beginning of a typical operating day found two students, an engineer and a disc jockey, making their way to the station at 6:45 in the morning. Live broad- casting, which began at 7 o ' clock, was followed by a transcribed music service during class hours. A network hookup with New York City provided entertainment in the afternoon, with live programs filling out the remainder of the evening. Broadcasts ran the gamut from music and campus shows to panel discussions and sports broadcasts. A library of over 6,000 records provided jazz, popular, and classical listening to appeal to all tastes — even a full- length opera on Sunday afternoons.

Mickey Simon, Epitome ' s answer to the Fuller Brush man, sells the ' 56 edition to a group of frosh. Epitome Lehigh in words and pictures Work on the 1956 Epitome started late in 1954 with the appointment of the Editor-in-Chief. The book really began to go into full swing in February 1955 when the other major staff members were selected. A planning group pooled ideas to get a rough conception of what the 1956 Epitome was to look like. By using experience gained on 1955s prize-winning yearbook, the planners conceived a book which they hoped would be as good as, or better than the 1955 one. During the Summer, when school work wasn ' t so pressing, the dummy, or plan of each page, was drawn up and the sub-editors were selected. Since the dummy was, at best, only a rough outline, it required many revisions, which were accomplished with a plentiful supply of pencils, paper, erasers, and Coca-Cola as the term wore on. While the editorial staff was in the throes of crea- tive agony, the business staff, concerned with more mundane matters, was getting ready to raise the $16,000 required to produce the 1956 Epitome. The Advertising Manager sang Epitome ' s praises to Bethlehem mer- chants durintr the Summer. At the same time, the sales staff was preparing to launch a selling campaign which, before it was finished, would sell a record number of Epitomes to Lehigh students, friends, and faculty. During Freshman Week, the various staffs got to- gether to set the wheels in motion. The sales campaign began; space contracts were sent out; staff members started interviewing department heads and recording interesting facts about each department. In spite of all prior planning, crises developed as the term progressed — when the staff scheduled outdoor pictures, it rained; when indoor pictures were sched- uled, the weather was so nice that no one could be found indoors. All in all, with uncooperative weather, organ- izations that didn ' t show up for pictures, and pictures that didn ' t develop as planned, the Scheduling Editor had a rather rough time of it. Other minor crises arose during the year and were dispelled, but the staff came through, and with a liberal dose of blood, sweat, and tears for each of its 384 pages, produced the book you are now reading. 196 Behind (his hook lie hours oi patient devotion to a ■ which .it times had a rather obscure value.

Pi Delta Epsilon Lehigh Man Survey nears completion Mickey Simon, sparkplug of Pi Delt ' s Lehigh Man Surrey, gets some help in tabulating results from President Bruce Waechter. Pi Delta Epsilon, the honorary journalism fraternity, is composed of members selected from the staffs of the three student publications, the Brown and White, WLRN, and the Epitome. The fraternity ' s objective is to simulate the activities of the three organizations from which it draws its members. A major project, now in progress, is the Lehigh Man Survey, which was begun last year. The idea behind the survey is not new; publication leaders have long seen the need for concrete figures concerning what the aver- age Lehigh student spends in Bethlehem. With these figures at hand, the student publications will be in a better position to prove to Bethlehem merchants that they should direct more advertising to Lehigh students. The project began in earnest in March, 1955, with some 200 individual surveys of students being made. These results will be published in booklet form and distributed to Bethlehem merchants. Through this book- let, Pi Delta Epsilon hopes to demonstrate clearly the financial importance of the men of Lehigh to almost all Bethlehem businesses. 198 Drown Hall—home of Lehigh ' s publications 199 The show goes on . . . 200 Faculty Advisors Mustard ami Cheese: II.

Stepping quickly, the 97 men of the Brown and White Rand moved rapidly onto the field. Dashing first in one direction, then in another, the bandsmen crisscrossed the field, their in- terlocking shadows creating a rapidly-changing pat- tern upon the downtrod grass. Playing continuously, they paused briefly now and then to execute precisely planned formations, then rushed back to frantic well- ordered motion once again. This was the second phase of a colorful Fall football game; it was a contest Lehigh won every time — the Battle of the Bands. Bold, brassy, and spectacular, the Fall show was good. As the months wore on, the Band retreated to the practice room, putting aside its spats, and emerged occasionally for one of its popular band concerts. Dur- ing the Winter, the vocalists and dramatists came onto the scene. The Glee (Hub catered to its own interests and those of nearby girls ' schools. Every Thursday the rock-bound walls of Drown Hall reverberated with the music of sixty singers as they practiced diligently for the next engagement. At the same time, the actors and stage hands brushed tip their Shakespeare, entertaining with Twelfth Night and King Henry IV. A small but capable handful of thespians labored tirelessly through countless practices prior to a few moments i glory before a packed house. Less heralded, but tilling important gaps in the broad musical setup, were the smaller groups. Chapel Choir, Collegians, Cliff Clefs, Brass Choir, and the Orchestra. These rounded out the Winter variety show, keeping music and drama appreciated as old and noble arts. The arrival of Spring added impetus to two projects. Lehigh Sounds, involving all of Lehigh ' s music or- ganizations, replaced the Spring Music Festival, which presented an enormous display of engineering, musical, and dramatic talent in the production of Allegro in L955. Pops Concert closed a highly successful year. Stu- dents and their dates spent a delightful evening listen- ing to the Concerl Band and different singing groups. A year which began with the clash of cymbals on the football field ended pleasantly by candlelight in (.race Hall. However, this was but a view of the surface. Behind the scenes, five men and countless students planned and practiced endlessly, These five instructors made the musk and drama program an important part of the Lehigh picture. Their guidance and inspiration suc- cessfully enriched the student life. The show went on. 201 Pops Concert stars the Concert Band. Grace Hall is revamped for the weekend ' s pleasant diversions. Brown and White Band The best in the East The precisely timed movements of the Marching Band are capable of spelling out Lehigh in many ways. One of the most highly regarded marching bands in the East, the Lehigh Band always added flavor to a football game — win, lose, or draw. Out of many ardu- ous hours of practice came a complete show for nearly every Saturday game. The Band gave pre-game exhibi- tions, assisted the cheer leaders, played Everybody Takes His Hat Off to Lehigh after every Lehigh touch- down, and presented crowd-pleasing performances in- volving clever themes and various interwoven march- ing formations at half time. From exploding skyrockets to the traditional Silver Goblet, the Band was expected to, and did, perform with polish and precision every time it went onto the field. In the early Fall of last year, before the start of classes, the Band members went to a camp in the Poconos. During their stay, the Band members sharpen- ed up their drill and learned to play as an integrated unit in preparation for the new season. However, un- like the sessions on campus, camp was not all work, as there were the usual camp activities to be indulged in between practices. 202 The high standards of quality were maintained through the leadership of Director Schempf. Professoi Schempf worked far into the nights on the format ions and music for the Hand. His driving personality and his standards of perfection molded the Hand and car- ried it to the peak of performance. After the football season. Sousa was swapped for Bach as the Marching Hand was pared down and con- verted to the Concert Hand. The Concert Hand pre- sented three major concerts during the year — in the Fall, Winter, and Spring. The two most outstanding performances of this concert season were a contempo- rary American music concert and a concert with out- standing high school music students participating. The contemporary music concert, held early in February, was a big success. Four talented American composers attended the concert and then held a forum on Amer- ican music in the evening. Late in May, the Concert Band presented its annual Pops Concert, patterned after the concerts originated by Arthur Fiedler and his Boston Pops Orchestra. In the cabaret atmosphere of candle light, checkered table cloths, and clinking glasses, the Band delighted the audience with show tunes and themes from light operas. With the last encore of the Pops Concert, the Band members layed down their instruments for the year as another successful season for the Lehigh Band came to a close. Air.

The Lehigh University Glee Club, one of the finest collections of male voices in the East, delighted Lehigh with many refreshing performances. The Club ' s success was partly due to an early start in practice. In the Glee Club- Band camp in the Poconos, the Club members were introduced to many of the tunes and carols that they sang so well throughout the year. Lender the excellent directorship of Professor Robert Cutler, the Club appeared in last year ' s Music Festival, as well as in this year ' s Lehigh Sounds. A Chapel filled to capacity with students and townspeople for the traditional Christmas Vespers in December attested to the group ' s popularity. This year, as always, the Glee Club did not reserve its efforts for Lehigh men alone; trips to Hunter, Beaver, and Wilson highlighted a season that kept the singers on their toes. One of the rewards of their labor was the opportunity to be the escorts of the girls of the Hunter and Beaver College Glee Clubs when they paid visits to South Mountain.

Collegians Music for your dancing pleasure by the Lehigh Collegians was a familiar feature of many campus and off-campus dances. These Lehigh musicians were associated with good dance and popular music through- out the Lehigh Valley. Last Fall and early this Spring, the Collegians un- veiled something new in musical entertainment in the form of Spur of the Moment Drags in Drown Hall. The band held two impromptu dances for the pleasure of Lehigh students and their dates. Both events were absolutely free, and therefore very well attended. Chapel Choir Any Lehigh man who got up early on Sundays and walked past Packer Memorial Chapel in search for breakfast heard the solemn, melodious sound of sing- ing voices emanating from the Chapel. As usual, the Chapel Choir was hard at work, practicing for one of its regular performances, which have enhanced Sunday services ever since the establishment of the Choir in 1946. Besides this service to the University, the Choir had several engagements outside Lehigh. It is especially remembered for brightening up the Christmas atmos- phere with a program of Christmas carols.

Cutler, Director. 206 The Orchestra on the left, and the Brass Chair on the right, combined their musical talents with the local talents of the Lehigh and Hunter College Glee Clubs to produce a very successful Christmas vesper service in Packer Chapel. Orchestra Brass [hair The Lehigh Orchestra was unique and quite fortunate in having as members not only students but also faculty and townspeople. The group was directed by Professor William Schempf, whose excellent leadership was re- flected in the superior quality of music presented by the Orchestra. Besides its appearance at the Christmas Vesper Service, the Orchestra presented two very suc- cessful concerts. The Orchestra ' s January performance delighted the critical audience with its rendition of Beethoven ' s Symphony 1 as well as with the works of Mozart and Barber. The Orchestra gave its final per- formance during the Spring weekend of Lehigh Sounds ' ' with two beautiful operettas which delighted the main parents in attendance. Sinee its inception in 1950, the Brass Choir has pro- vided its members with the opportunity to study and play all types of music. Members of the Choir are selected from the brass section of the Concert Band. This year, the Choir provided accompaniment for the Christmas Vesper Service. This accompaniment was a beautiful and solemn background to the cheep, warmth of the Vuletide music. Besides appearing at the February Band Concert, the Choir made its annual appearance in the famous Ba _h Festival. The audience, seated in Packer Memorial Chapel and sprawled over the green lawns surrounding the Chapel, was especially delighted by the Brass Choir ' s interpretation of the moving and sonorous music. 207 ' I Hlusic Festiual Spring : :: performance ien ' gna mct ' enc triking mtnt i ' lit tkramutit itrforman I . ... . - ■.-.-.-.-. . ■ . . • - iimir - . .:T3in ... . . ... . . ■ ne xmauje - - - - . nuiniiiuiii :iieil . - ■ - . . . • .. - . sstim . .? juiiiiiirc In 3:. .. . ■ mi - . . . . 3 ■ . ... ■ . . .. i .::..:..■ . . . . ■■ ... schools, and even the sub-freshman sons of Profes sors Schempf and Norris. The extensive set, Grace Hall ' s acoustic system, and the large audience presented problems which these players overcame with amazing skill. Much of the success of the Festival was the accom- plishment or the Lehigh music organizations, which had to cope with the difficult music and lyrics of the show. The show wouldn ' t have been produced without the Orchestra, directed by Professor Schempf. and the Glee Club, led by Mr. Cutler. The engineering and electrical starts, too. had their share of responsibility for the successful carrying out of the program. Rapid scene changes, a complicated electrical system and complex lighting cues required the utmost efforts of members of both staffs, many of whom were already worn out from excavating a prop room from the foundations underneath the east stands. The electrical staff also handled the set designers ' pride and joy. a new projector which enabled unique set effects. As usual. Professor Albert C.

Although the play was not so well adapted to the tastes of the Lehigh Man as the previous production, Stalag 17 , the group did a professional job with the difficult play, which was well received by an enthusiastic audience. To adapt the production to M C requirements, Dr. Frank S. Hook and Professor H. Barrett Davis scrap- ped half of the original script, effectively cutting the play to a reasonable one and a half hours. Casting for the four lead and the supporting char- acter roles began early in the school year. Although many of the performers were experienced players, the I In cutiit cast of King Hi ry l receives j loud ovation from tin audienct jf cr performing in magnificent 7i c. si t those finally cast included many new names.

It is for this reason that the Christian Council, the Hillel Society, and the Newman Club — representing, respectively, the Protes tant, Jewish, and Catholic students at Lehigh — have united in the lnterfaith Council, which seeks to co- ordinate religious activities on campus and to increase student interest in religion. Probably the toughest and therefore most impor- tant problem which the Council tackled this year was the task of furthering unity and understanding among followers of different faiths at Lehigh. The major vehicles in attainin g this objective, as well as in pro- moting religious interest among students, were the annual conferences on religion, held in November and March. The leadership in these conferences was rotated among the three major faiths; each was given equal opportunity of presenting its views and beliefs. Perhaps a good example of the problems facing the lnterfaith Council is the vast scope and sharply dif- fering interpretation of the subjects discussed by this year ' s Fall Conference speaker, the Reverend Gustave Weigel, who covered such interesting and controversial topics as — Religion, Something More Than a Moral Scheme ; The Catholic View of Evolution ; Faith. Reason, and History ; Natural and Supernatural Re- ligion ; and The Catholic Conception of the Gospel. Seated: Samuel J. Errer.i, Faculty Advisor; Raymond E.

Christian Council Co-ordinating the activities of Christian groups The Christian Council, in view of the need for an organization on campus that would serve as a unifying group for Christian campus groups, had as its objective the co-ordination of the numerous religious activities, and the planning and supervision of future functions. Bimonthly student-faculty discussions, cell groups in the residence halls, and social service work in the Bethlehem-Philadelphia area comprised but a small part of the Council ' s varied undertakings. The Council held cooperative meetings with its coun- terpart at Cedar Crest. The participants at these meet- ings, through the medium of speeches by visitors and members, and general discussi ons, tried to get a clearer idea of the problems of young people. The first of these meetings, held in the Fall was so successful that a second was held in the Spring. This Spring meeting, held in April, included members of the Bethlehem Boys ' Club as guests. After the weighty subject matter of the meeting was ironed out, all mem- bers and guests adjourned to watch a baseball game. A relatively new plan, inaugurated just two years ago, was the Visiting Minister Program whereby a well known theologian was received at a fraternity house to discuss subjects related to religion. The minister was the guest of the house for dinner, after which he delivered a short talk gauged to arouse interest and provoke thought on the part of the stu- dents. In the discussions that ensued, the minister en- deavored to apply moral and religious principles to everyday life, in an attempt to show the benefits derived. This program has come to be an integral part of Christian Council ' s activities, having been extended to a two semester basis. Both fraternity houses and the ministers themselves have lauded the success of the forums, and the enlightenment they have fostered. 214 First Kan : Potter, Heanie, Ray- mond A.

In spirit with the organization ' s objective to provide Christian Fellowship for those who would not ordin- arily experience it, twenty-five deserving youths from the Bethlehem Boys ' Club attended a party designed as a goodwill gesture by the Club officers. Dinner and movies rounded out an evening as enjoyable for the Club members as for the youngsters they entertained. Hillel Society The Lehigh-Moravian Hillel Society offered a wide variety of programs in order to meet adequately the needs of the Jewish student population. One of the foremost events of the Hillel program was a forum entitled The Three Great Monotheistic Faiths . At this forum, attended by many students of all religious affiliations, were speakers from the Chris- tian, Moslem, and Jewish faiths. This stimulating dis- cussion ran well over the planned time limit and .i- hailed as one of the year ' s most successful programs.

Religious discussions, group com- munions, and a retreat constituted the spiritual side of the organization ' s activities. Social aspects of the program, arranged by the Catholic Youth Organiza- tion in Bethlehem, included informal gatherings high- lighted by a Welcome Dance. A successful year was the result of diligent work by the Club officers and an active participation by the members.

Christ, the Word of Life , chosen as the theme for the year, was a principal topic in the retreat ' s Bible study and discussion periods. Here too, members could attain a more intimate rela- tionship with their faith in the quiet atmosphere of the mountains. All objectives were not serious, however, and the group spent a relaxing weekend at baseball, swimming, and other recreational activities. Intel faith [[inference The Fall Conference on Religion, sponsored this year by the Interfaith Council, introduced to Lehigh the Reverend Gustave Weigel, a distinguished Roman Catholic theologian from Woodstock College in Mary- land. Father Weigel conducted numerous seminars and lectures, discussing subjects closely related to the Christian faith. He addressed regularly scheduled classes in Biolog) History, and Philosophy, placing emphasis on these sub- jects and the influence they exert on religion.

Composed of the most active leaders from student government, publications, music and drama, and religious groups, as well as hum the honoraries, course societies, and various other clubs and organizations, ODK brought together representa- tives of many aspects of Lehigh undergraduate activity. More important was the fact that it included a large and active circle of interested members of Faculty and Administration. More than just an honorary, ODK held regular meet- ings this year to discuss broad problems affecting Lehigh. The unique breadth of the group fostered ex- tremely interesting discussions on problems such as Housepartv and the operation of the new University Center. The relative importance of these discussions did not necessarily lie in the action which they promoted, but more in the understanding between the groups which they helped to create; they brought the students into closer relationships with the Faculty and Adminis- tration through personal contact.

As it is the first authority to which incoming freshmen are introduced, the society is often spoken of with distaste. Freshmen soon learn, however, that the service which Cyanide renders is invaluable to their orientation and familiar- ization with the Lehigh campus and traditions.

Dr. Robert T. Gallagher replaced Dr. H. V. Anderson, who last year resigned the advisory position which he had held for the past twenty-five years. Dr. Anderson brought Phi Eta Sigma to Lehigh in May of 1930, eight years after the first chapter came into existence at the University of Illinois. Realizing the need for an honorary fraternity which would recognize freshman scholastic achievement, Dr. Anderson believed Phi Eta Sigma to be the answer. After the chapter was founded, he was chosen faculty advisor and in this capacity directed the honorary on its path to success. Throughout the ensuing years Dr. Anderson ' s inter- est never faltered. His efforts transformed Phi Eta Sigma into the active honorary it is today and were responsible for the organization of two new chapters, one a Newark College of Engineering and the other at the University of Massachusetts at Amherst.

Rounding out DOT ' S activity was the service of members as chairmen and timekeepers for the annual Williams Intramural Debate Contest. Brown Key Society The Brown Key Society, in line with its desire to promote harmonious relations with rival schools, con- tacted visiting athletic squads upon their arrival in Bethlehem to insure the team a pleasant and comfort- able stay.

Dames Hub Wives of Lehigh students have organized the Dames Club in order to provide a common ground for gossip, bridge parties, home-making demonstrations, and other feminine activities. Feeling rather left out by the activities policy of the University, which is designed for males only, the women have done an effective job of providing some of their own entertainment, allow- ing their husbands additional study time as well. Cosmopolitan Hub The miniature United Nations on the Lehigh campus is in the form of the Cosmopolitan Club. Living up to the namesake of the organization, students find lasting friendships. While the influence of mixed languages and mixed customs makes this Club quite unique, the friendly spirit which prevails among the members makes home seem less far away to those attending school in a foreign country. . a i ! 4 .

Alpha Phi Omega Sponsors of the ugly man contest Alpha Phi Omega, a national service fraternity whose only requirement for membership is previous membership in the Boy Scouts, sponsored its annual Ugly Man contest tor the second consecutive war at Lehigh. Tins contest, started six or eight wars ago at other colleges in the western part of the country, serves the purpose of raising money for the Campus Chest drive. The first year at Lehigh proved the merit of the contest, and tins year ' s contest was an even greater success, with more candidates entered and re- ceipts doubled over those received the previous year. The object of the contest is to choose the ugliest man on campus from the candidates for the title. These can- didates, which included, for the second time. Dean Byron C. Hayes, are sponsored by a living croup which publicizes its choice on posters. This year Bob Procter of Delta Chi was chosen the ugliest man on campus.

The highlight of the year for the members of Alpha Lambda Omega was the annual Christmas party. Since its founding in 1942 as the Allentown-Lehigh Organ- ization, the group has considered the Christmas party as the social event most eagerly awaited by ALO members. This year, as usual, a large number of alumni returned to share in the comic-gift exchange and compete for honors with the undergraduates in the traditional chug- a-lug contest. The finish was very close, but the under- grads had decisive advantages of more practice as a team and having as anchor man the champion beer- drinker of the Mediterranean fleet. The characteristic good-natured arguments about infractions of the rules were quickly quelled by the beaut) ' contest for Queen of the Christmas Party , an innovation which was met by enthusiastic support from everyone present. Town Council Links town students to campus life Composed largely of students from the local area, Town Council was the organization representative of the town living group. It carried out the main objec- tive of providing a means for town students to partici- pate more fully in campus life and sponsored athletic, scholastic, and social programs for its members. One of the highlights of Town Council ' s social pro- gum was the annual November dance, with a simple theme of fall, held in Drown Hall. A small orchestra supplied the music, and free refreshments were avail- able, while the lounge was open to provide a place in which to meet and become better acquainted with each other and with members of the faculty. Spot dances helped to sustain the spirit and the novelty prizes pro- vided remembrances of the evening to winners and their dates. m m A a v JKi 1 §■ Fred Meckley, President: Dale- Bachman, Secretary: Bill Hertzog, Treasurer: Bob Lucas, Vice-President.

Flying Club Two planes keep aviators moving The Flying Club ' s single-engine planes give Club members a chance to learn the practical as well as the theoretical aspects of flying. Cruising along high above the crowded highways at a modest speed of ninety miles per hour, the fliers beat even the fastest of Lehigh ' s four-wheeled speed de- mons to such destinations as Vassar and Florida. However, most of the 25,000 or more miles logged by the two planes of the Flying Club were not added by pleasure trips, but rather for instructional purposes. Many of the sixty members were novices and were given an excellent opportunity to learn to fly the two Piper Cubs at the nearby Bethlehem-Easton Airport where the planes were housed. During the week, when- ever weather permitted, the planes were used by learn- ers working toward their pilot ' s license. The second plane, a recently purchased Taylor Craft, greatly ex- panded the educational facilities offered by the Club. In addition to pleasure trips and flight training, regular evening meetings were held to acquaint mem- bers with other aspects of flying. Experts spoke of meteorology, safety, and other related topics. Flagpole Day— an active year comes to an end One of the oldest traditions of the i ' ni crMt is Flagpole Day. Each year, late in May, most ol the student body and faculty, alumni, VIP ' s. the Univei sity Band — and all the fraternity mascots not other- wise occupied — gather in a semicircle on the lawn in front of the flagpole. Student attendance is increased through an altered class schedule so that all will have a free period during the ceremonies. The purpose of Flagpole Day is to permit the public presentation of the various athletic, academic, and char- acter awards of the University, and to announce the names of newly-elected class officers. The program opens with a prayer, and then the awards ar e presented. Small replicas of the shapely cups, goblets, and statues of the University and certifi- cates attesting to their achievements are awarded. Hut Flagpole Day otters more than .1 chance to wit- ness the awarding ol trophies. A highlight of the day is the passing on of the Senior Class Cane, indicative of school leadership, from the Senior Class President to his counterpart in the Junior Class. With the pass- ing of the cane, the Freshmen are no longer consid- ered freshmen, but Sophomores; the Sophomores be- come Juniors; and the Juniors become Seniors. The Seniors presumably move into their own special Nirvana, which is barred to all lower classes. The winners of the various class officer elections are announced, and the new Epitomt is presented. The ceremonies are closed after a pleasant hour on the lawns; the band packs up, and the lawn in from ol the flagpole is left to recuperate for the ceremonies of the following Spring. M % m •m V i,.

And there is something about the combination of Autumn, football, and college life thai is magically inseparable — the cool, crisp afternoons with the sun filtering hazily through the red and gold foliage of the campus . . . pretty girls in camel-hair coats topped with Brown and White mufflers who are escorted by young men who, in contrast to the other six and a half days of the week, look like some- thing from the pages of Esquire . . . the roar of the crowd as an Engineer halfback twists, turns, and then Streaks through 80 yards of the enemy ' s defense into the end one; or an end snares a pass and hangs on to it in violation of all the laws of physics . . . the fascina- tion of the- spectators at halftime as the band goes through its incredibly-complicated maneuvers . . . the church-like quality of the stadium as the Alma Mater is sung. These are the things we remember. Lour buffing, puffing Temple players do their best to cut off Bob Nay- lor, but their best wasn ' t good enough as the fleet- footed halfback eluded them to reel off a sub- stantial gain.

Backs Working out of a split-T behind one of the staunch- est forward walls the Engineers have had for several seasons, sophomore Dan Nolan and junior Bob Naylor combined to lead the squad to one of the most success- ful seasons in Lehigh history. Marred only by losses to Cornell and to those lads from Easton, the season rolled along in tine style with Nolan running the option smoothly, Naylor taking care of the long runs, and Austie Short and Tom Fail- lace making impossible catches. No small role in the Team ' s success was due to the magnificent line play — opening up holes, cutting down tacklers on kick returns, giving the quarterback enough time to spot a receiver. It was the line which rocked the Big Red of Cornell back on its heels for most of the opening game played in a cold drizzle at Schoellkopf Field. For the better part of 45 minutes, Cornell tried to shove its vaunted back- held through the Lehigh forward wall without success. In fact, not until the second half was the Big Red able to cross the 50 into Packer territory. Halfback Bob Naylor chugs around right end in the second quarter of the Delaware game to pick up seven yards, hay- ing the ground-work for Naylor are center Alex Maslousky (53), guard Bruno Pagnani (66), and guard M alt Bianco (right). Some place in this pile lies quarterback Dan Nolan after sneaking the ball aver Delaware ' s goal line for the Packers ' first touchdown. Lehigh missed the extra point but still led, 6-0. Interference is called on Delaware for interrupting Tom Faillace, as he goes for Dan Nolan ' s extra-point pass. Flying high before being brought rather rudely back to earth by two Delaware tackier s is Engineer Bob Naylor, as he wings a pass intended for halfback Chico Carrasquillo. The pass was intercepted, but Lehigh emerged victorious. With Lehigh Leading by one touchdown, scored from three yards out by Chico Carrasquillo after a 25-yard pass completion, Cornell shifted tactics. Changing theii running game to the outside, the men of Lefty Janus scored twice in the final period and turned a 6-0 deficit into a I i (i ictory. Handing the Blue Hens their only setback of the season, 225-pound Lehigh tackle, Pete Williams, snag- ged a Delaware pass deflected by Bill Doremus and outran Hen quarterback Hob Hooper 86 yards for the winning touchdown in an uphill 19-1 s upset at Newark, Del aw are. The Packers had tied the count by rolling 7 i yards in eight plays late in the third quarter. The drive was climaxed by Dan Nolan ' s 10-yard pass to Austie Short. Lehigh ' s tough defensive line came into its own in the second half, thrice stopping Delaware inside the En- gineer 20. After Lehigh marched 67 yards for a touchdown the first time they got the ball, the Blue Hens maintained control for the rest of the first half mostly on the strength of the signal-calling of quarterback Hooper. Time and time again the Hens were able to pick up chunks of yardage on a double reverse. Delaware ' s passing was also clicking as they completed six of eight passes in the first half; the Lehigh secondary, how- ever, stopped this in the second half, batting down or intercepting five of the attempted Blue Hen aerials. Before a Parents ' Day crowd of 6,° 00 fans, Dan Nolan scored three times and passed for a fourth touchdown as he led the Packers to a 27-20 triumph over the Bucknell Bisons. Six plays after Tom Faillace pounced on a Bucknell fumble on its own 28, Nolan tossed a 14-yard pass to Bob Naylor for the initial score. Fourteen plays and so yards after the Bisons had been forced to punt, the Packers had their second TD. Unable to get through the Lafayette line. Dick Pen mil tries to go over the top, but funis it sim- ilarly unsuccessful.

Hill Doremus ' three successful extra point kicks proved to be the difference as a determined Lehigh team came from behind to down Gettysburg in a 21-18 upset on the losers ' field. The highlight and turning point of the game came late in the second period. Gettysburg had just scored its second touchdown, making the score 12-0, when Boh Naylor took the kick-off on the 14-yard line and raced straight down the field, cutting for the right side- Lehigh cheerleaders go into the ritual of their post- touchdown chant to the amusement of two local urchins. Twisting and turning. Boh Naylor tries to stay clear of the grasp of falling Bucknell back while Pete Johnson chugs over to lend a band. Electing to keep on the option play which the Engineers used so successfully most of the season, Dan Nolan romps down field for a touchdown against ' Ml. line as he crossed the 50, and scampered into the end zone without having a Gettysburg man touch him. Doremus ' kick made the score 1 2-7 and from that point on, despite the fact that the Bullets scored again, Lehigh was the aggressor all the way. Austie Short was on the receiving end of five passes, for a total of 79 yards. One set up Lehigh ' s second tally as Short went up between Bullet defenders and caught the ball, which they had deflected, while lying on his back on the two- yard line. Nolan sneaked over for the TD. Climaxing an Engineer march which started with a recovered fumble on the Lehigh 40, Naylor scored the winning six-pointer with only two and one-half minutes re- maining. Sparked by Dan Nolan ' s brilliant quarterbacking and Bob Naylor ' s hard running, Lehigh racked up vic- tory number four by defeating Rutgers 21-14 at New Brunswick.

Nolan ' s passing attack opened up the Lehigh offense as Dan ' s needlepoint aerials were largely responsible for the l 7 yards through the air.

The Engineers had to come back after a freak Rut- gers store m the second period when the Scarlets ' Bob Keeley pick ofl a Nolan lateral and scampered untouch- ed 1 ' s yards into the end .one. Lehigh scored after full- hack Walter Pijawka ' s running put the squad within Striking distance when Nolan hit Short with a pass. With one minute remaining in the half, Naylor put the Packers out in front to stay with a running pass to Tom Faillace for six points. Nolan scored the final touchdown on an intercepted pass. Housepartv Weekend marked the 300th win for a Lehigh football team and the ' SOtli win for a Leckonby- coached team as the Engineers whacked Temple 27-14 behind the steady play of Naylor and Nolan. Naylor got off his most spectacular run of the year as he dashed 9-1 yards on a punt return. The Lambertville, N.J., halfback also passed to Tom Faillace for another score on a play which covered 56 yards. Sandwiched in between two Temple defenders, left halfback Keith Rust goes up for a pass which sailed out of the end zone anyway. Michael T. Cooley, William B. Leckonby, Paul E.

Faillace finished off the contest by breaking into the clear and snagging a 15-yard Nolan pass in the end zone. Pre-game fears that the South, in the form of Virginia Military Institute, might rise again were quickly dis- pelled as three waves of Engineers romped to a 39-0 win over the hapless Keydets. Grinding out six touch- downs and 410 yards, plus throwing in a thrilling goal- line stand, the Packers — all 36 of them — kept the Vir- ginia Volunteers from ever getting a foothold on Yankee soil. Dan Nolan spearheaded the first-half attack, shar- ing the spotlight with Tom Faillace, Dick Pennell, and Pijawka, while the line did a magnificent defensive job, minus Short, Doremus, and Pagnani. Second and third string Packers took over in the second half and continued the merry scoring pace while spectators glanced over their programs, frantically trying to find out whom they were watching.

The game that followed was also a one-sided affair, but, unfortunately, for the wrong side. Smog, a wind- whipped snow storm and the Lafayette Football Team combined to commit mayhem by a stunning 35-6 count. The Maroon, ignoring weather conditions, slipped and sloshed its way through the muck of Taylor Sta- dium to a convincing win. The heavier Leopards, using power plays with decep- tive hand-offs by quarterback Joe Bozik, completely dominated play after Lehigh marched to a quick touchdown after taking the opening kickoff. Bozik was undoubtedly the chief accessory among the homi- cide-bent Eastoners. The Donora, Pa., sophomore per- sonally accounted for 13 of the first 14 points and faked so cleverly that he made following the ball al- most impossible at times. Adding scores in every period, the Leopards made it, all in all, a miserable weekend for the past and present inhabitants of South Mountain. Tips from the press box coach to Coach Leckonby via field telephone are futile as Leek peers through the murk while attempting to come up with a counter-offensive to stem the Maroon onslaught. Soccer Future prospects brighter Early season injuries and lack of a strong scoring punch hampered the Varsity Soccer Team in its effort ro improve upon last season ' s record. Playing with the services of only one senior, the 1955 squad won three and lost five of its contests. Offensively, for the season, it was Captain Elden Kunkle and Tony Etchenique who carried most of the load.

One supposes that it would be possible to get through a winter without snow . but it would be quite unimaginable to say the same of wrestling. For among winter sports, perhaps among all Lehigh sports, wrestling is truly King of the Mountain . The wrestling tradition started by Billy Sheridan many years ago lives on just as strongly today. To doubt this is to be blind to the sight of Grace Hall with the fans packed from the rafters downward to the verj edge of the mat and to be deaf to the thunderous rever- beration of feet stamping in unison as Ike sets up his man for the pin. To gauge the wrestling fever which grips the campus each winter a visitor would only have to walk through the dorms and see the impromptu matches taking place on the mattress-covered floors, or hear undergraduates discussing weights and records with the same enthusi- asm of a Dodger fan reciting baseball statistics. Perhaps these are the reasons why Time Magazine called Bethle- hem the wrestling center of America. Intent on the job at hand, Tom Deppe locks arms with a stubborn joe hi the Easterns. Dick Whited 167 Dave Walton 177 Dave Gallaher Heavyweight Coach Gerry Leeman prepared his 1955-56 Wrestling Team for what he termed a rebuilding year . A pair of weak spots hampered the squad, but Lehigh emerged from its dual meet campaign with a favorable 8-3 record. Captain Edward Eichelberger, a senior from Nor- folk, Virginia, and sophomore Joseph Gratto, from Canton, New York, each won 11 consecutive dual bouts. Senior David Gallaher won 10 of 11 bouts. Lehigh opened the season by overwhelming a dis- appointing Cornell team by a 26-7 score. Ralph Scalzo, Gratto, and Eichelberger pinned for the Packers, while Thomas Deppe, Richard Whited, and Gallaher scored decisions. In the first three bouts of the Pennsylvania match, Deppe, Frank Eck, and Gratto scored successive first- period falls to give Lehigh a quick 15-0 lead. Another pin by Gallaher, aided by decisions from Bates, Eichel- berger, and Whited, led the way to a smashing 29-3 victory. David Walton dropped a 2-1 decision at 177. Franklin and Marshall became Lehigh ' s third victim, dropping a 19-9 match to the Brown and White. Deppe and Gratto scored the two pins that eventually won the bout.

With a win over Lansdowne and a loss to Hamilton under their belts the pucksters turned in a dazzling 4-1 victory over the Morristown Hockey (dub in which Engineer goalie Bob Haltenhoff spiked 30 attempts at goals by the New Jersey club. In the following match with Babson Institute, Babson tame up with two goals in the last three minutes of play to turn a 2-4 deficit into a tie. Colgate jumped off to a first period lead and were never headed as they took the next match, 5-3. Traveling to Princeton for its final match of the year, the ice hockey squad was mauled by a Tiger JV team, 13-0.

Swimming Swimmers show improvement as they register 5-5 season With Eastern Intercollegiate diving champion Ron Keenhold consistently leading the way with his first place honors, the Swimming Team picked up a few more victories than in the previous season and pulled themselves up to the .500 mark in addition to placing second in the ECSA tournament. After dropping a pre-Christmas meet to Colgate the swimmers, paced by Ed Dederer ' s two first places, swamped a visiting Delaware team by taking 72 of a possible 84 points. In only two races were the Hens able to do as well as second place. At West Point the Engineers were able to capture only three firsts but kept the final score close, 45-39, by having a man place second in every race they didn ' t win. The next time out they routed Gettysburg, 64-18. In taking every first place except one and every second except three, the Lehigh aquamen broke a pool record and a Gettysburg record. Frank Johnson swam the 200-yard backstroke in 2:27.3 and the 300-yard medley relay team made up of Al Johnson, Ed Dederer and John Harkrader covered the distance in 3:08.4. In a spine-tingling match at Philadelphia, Penn edged Lehigh by a 43-41 count. Going into the final race, the 400-yard freestyle relay, the Packers led 41-36, with their undefeated relay team on deck.

A strong Pitt team took Lehigh by a 59-25 score with the losers being victorious only in diving and the 200-yard backstroke. Ed Dederer took two second places good for six points. Lehigh returned to winning ways by trouncing Lafayette for the eighth consecutive year and by beat- ing Rutgers by a sizeable margin. Ed Dederer was a double winner in both meets, taking firsts in the 200- yard breaststroke and the 200-yard individual medley. In the last meet of the season Syracuse set Jacobs ' pool records in two events in defeating Lehigh 54-30. Captain Ron Keenhold won the diving to complete an undefeated season.

Basketball Winds up In the red Lehigh ' s Basketball Team which began the L955-56 season unexpectedly well and finished with a phenom- enal burst of court prowess played somewhat less spec- tacularly during the rest of the year to insert the story of another losing season into the annals of Lehigh basketball. The Packers final season record was 7-11. The Packers scrambled the eggs of the Blue Hens of Delaware University in the season ' s opener, 90-70. After being trampled by the Bisons of Bucknell, 57-71, the Packers put their second victim on the shelf by squeezing past Swarthmore, 49-45. A strong Temple team, led by Hal Lear and Guy Rodgers, beat the Packers, 81-48. The charges of (loach Tony Packer didn ' t recover fully from this mauling until eight games later.

The Bullets of Gettysburg shot past the Packers in the next game by a 76-69 score. Finally sharpening up, the Packers broke their four- game losing skein by putting the Lions of Albright on the hook, 76-72. During the mid-term vacation, Lehigh went back to the beaten path of setbacks and dropped one-sided games to Temple, Penn State, and Army by scores of 88-64, 84-56, and 91-75, respectively. At this late date in the season, the Packers began their surprises. In the first game after vacation, the Packers played host to Gettysburg. In this tilt the Bul- lets turned out to be duds, and the Packers came out victorious, 91-75, to avenge an earlier defeat at the guns of the Davies-coached club.

Al- bright was the only team on the Lehigh schedule that the Packers were able to get by twice during the 1955-56 season. All good things have to come to an end, and so did the short Lehigh winning streak. Rutgers started the Packers on their second three-game losing streak of the campaign by eking out a 64-60 win. The Packers ' next setback came at the hands of the Franklin and Marshall cagers, 64-53. Although the Engineers dropped the following game to Lafayette, they won some sort of a moral victory. Behind by 12 points at half-time, the Lehigh basketeers held the Leopards on even terms during the final half to lose by only 13 points, 80-67. This time Lafayette used its first team during all but two minutes of the second tilt, which was played in the home lair of the Leopards. Returning to the friendly confines of Grace Hall, where they posted a 5-4 season record, the Packers again pulled off a two-game winning streak to end the season. Their initial victory in this skein was over the weakening herd of Bison from Bucknell, 63-57. In the finale of the season, the Packers gave their most bril- liant performance of the season. Shooting superbly and passing flawlessly, Lehigh downed Rutgers, 81-57. • Em i 11 I First Rou: Maxwell, Eckhart, Harrington, Crawford, Yurek.

Baseball Spring Sports have ups and downs Although the final tally of eight wins, twelve losses may not be the most auspicious record in the books. the 1955 Baseball Team did manage to achieve some measure of glory by downing an NCAA World Series bound Lafayette crew, 3-0; blasting Rutgers, 10-5; and edging the University of Pennsylvania, 6-5, in three consecutive games. Fireballer Frank Yurek was the hero of the day in the Lepoard shut-out as he struck out 10 and walked four while giving up six hits. To make the day com- plete, the Dunellen, N.J., senior blasted a two-run homer into the centerfield stands, 350 feet away, in the seventh inning. Captain Harry Stotz relays hall to first to complete doubll play against Lafayette. The Record LEHIGH OPPONENT Princeton 5 4 Swarthmore 5 2 Wagner 5 Temple 6 1 Delaware 2 7 F.

Wagner Frank J. Yurek Robert W. Rudas, Mgr. Lehigh scored its initial run in the third inning on a bad throw to first base, a wild pitch, and a scratch single. With two out, Sam Furiness grounded to the shortstop, but two Lafayette miscues put him on third base. First baseman Ron Dressen singled him home. From that point until the seventh, Leopard sopho- more Dick Fitzgerald set down 1 1 Lehigh batters in order. The big inning started when, with two down, Lee Butz stepped into the box and smashed a single to right field for the Engineers ' second hit of the day. Yurek then appeared on the scene and whacked Fitz- gerald ' s second pitch into the seats to make the score 3-0. The victory was not to come so easily, however, as Lafayette staged a last-ditch effort in the eighth inning. After the lead-off man had gone out on strikes, Fitz- gerald, batting in the clean-up slot, got on through an error. Another base runner was added when Yurek hit Howie Frederic on the shoulder, and both runners advanced when the Lehigh southpaw uncorked a wild pitch. Catcher Maynard Dill was called out when he popped up between first and home and slammed into Yurek as he was trying to make the catch. Yurek struck out the next man to end the threat with a flourish. Although, in light of the record, the above game may be more ideal than typical of the season as a whole, the Engineers did pick up steam in the last few weeks of the season as they took five of their last seven con- tests. Included in this seven-game set was the 10-5 walloping of Rutgers, in which Captain Harry Stotz had three-for-four at the plate and pitcher Lee Butz struck out five while giving up only two earned runs. Chuck Wagner was named winner of the Nannie Lam- berton Wilbur Baseball Trophy and Medal in recog- nition of his selection as best all-around player on the 1955 squad.

Lehigh produced two champions in the Middle At- lantic Track and Field Championships while finishing behind St. Joseph ' s and LaSalle in total team ratings with 231 2 points Indicative of its performance throughout the season was the team ' s 85-41 conquest of Rutgers. Lngineer Don Burgess nipped teammate George O ' Brien to take both sprint events. Dick Johnson annexed a win in the broad jump with a leap of 21 feet I inch.

In the quarter-mile, the Scarlet ' s Bob Matthews staved off a last-second bid by Bill Luce and Leo Jablonski.

In the world of sport one is expected to show humility when winning and grace when losing. If this be the case, the 1955 Lacrosse squad should have been very graceful by the time the season was over in view of its 1-7 record. A victory over Lafayette late in the season prevented a whitewash. However, in the last analysis, it isn ' t the record that really counts, but the spirit in which the matches were played — and here the squad came out on top. Lehigh goalie Sorm Kaelber makes a save, slapping a Cornell scoring attempt. The Engineers lost, however, 11-0. t - ■ «l« V  l Freshman Teams Footballers win one— almost Hampered by injuries to key personnel, the fresh- man football squad battled Delaware to a scoreless tie in the season ' s opener and then dropped the remain- ing four contests. In the Delaware game, played in a quagmire of mud and rain. Coach Ray Whispell ' s proteges doubled the Hen ' s yardage but were never able to move the ball past the opponents ' 10-yard stripe. The meeting with Rutgers proved to be disastrous, as the Scarlet scored in every period to register a 24-0 decision. After losing to Temple the frosh tightened up a bit and fought the Bisons to a standstill after a bad first period which netted Bucknell a touchdown. With the riots before, during, and after the game setting the tone, the contests with Lafayette turned into a rather rugged affair with the Leopards ending up on top.

Following the example of Leon Harbold, who walked ofl with top honors from the Wilkes tournament, the yearling squad swept the Freshman Eastern Inter- Collegiate Wrestling Tournament with seven first places and two seconds out of a total of eight final bouts. Along with Harbold, Dick Santoro came through the season undefeated. Santoro had six pins out of eight bouts to his credit while Harbold had four. Cornell proved to be the only stumbling block in the quest for an undefeated season, and even then the Big Red had to come from behind, winning the last two bouts to overcome a 12-8 Engineer advantage.

Upon meeting up with the two prep schools, however, the story was less interesting. After Lawrenceville Prep drubbed them 45-32, the yearlings stormed back to defeat both Delaware and Army by large margins. The Hens went under 70-14 and Army did likewise by a 61-23 count. Any feeling of overwhelming superiority was short-lived as they were humbled 47-30 by the Hill School. Back in their own league with Pennsylvania and Rutgers, the frosh resumed their winning ways sub- duing the U. of P. first-year men, 54-29, and Rutgers, 59-25. In the E.C.S.A. championships in New York, Lehigh ' s freshmen did the free-style event in a time of 3:42.7 to defeat Pitt yearlings and win the event for the sixth time in the past seven years. Marty Maloney, former Brooklyn Tech star, covered the 150-yard individual medley in 2:22.1 to set Lehigh and pool records. Charles Corns, George Gotwalt and Henry Hartz set a Lehigh record in the 300-yard medley relay with a time of 3:00.7. Standing deceptively still in the water is frosh Martin Maloney, who can usually be found streak- ing through the water at a faster-thau-arerage clip. fi ft 9 $ , $ In water: Corns.

Tall frosh courtmen fall short on wins Boasting of two one game winning streaks the fresh- man basketball team showed plenty of fight in carry- ing out the- season ' s schedule, but in spite of all junior Engineer efforts the opposing team usually ended up with more points. After dropping the firs! tour games, the yearlings suddenly got hot and surprised everyone by knocking of] Albright 73-65. They cooled oil rather quickly, though, and stayed that way for six more games. With the end of the season at hand and only a single victory to their credit, the frosh caught fire again and doubled their wins for the season by edging Rutgers 52-48. The initial contest was rather typical. Lehigh jumped olt to a L3-6 lead but walked off the floor at halftime trailing 24-18. During the second half the visitors pulled away steadily and that was it. On occasion, as against Lafayette, the frosh would rally, going ahead three or four times in the last quarter. But no matter what happened during the game it usually ended up the same way.

Mil ■ II II M, if If H General Percy L. Sadler, Director of Athletics Intercollegiate athletics and Good Sportsmanship Through its program in athletics, physical education, and intramural sports, the University endeavors to maintain among its students a high degree of physical fitness, to establish habits of regular and healthful exer- cise, to foster the development of such valuable by- products as self-confidence, good sportsmanship, and a spirit of cooperation, and to provide each student with ample opportunity for acquiring an adequate de- gree of skill in sports. Intercollegiate sports are designed by the Depart- ment to foster an aggressive and cooperative team spirit so as to increase University pride through participation in competitive athletics. Intercollegiate competition is by far the most con- spicuous phase of University athletics, as evidenced by the preceding pages. But perhaps just as important as the activities directed by General Percy L. Sadler and his corps of coaches is the program of exercise that comes under the aegis of the Physical Education De- partment and Professor Fay C. Bartlett, known to countless students as Bart .

Most of us arrived on the campus as strangers in a new world which we soon found was quite different from our past experiences in high school and prep school. Proud parents dropped us and our belongings off at the various dorms. Being typicall y eager fresh- men, we hurried down the hill to the Alumni Build- ing immediately, then waited in line indefinitely for room keys, dinks, orientation schedules, and maps of the campus. That first week of orientation saw us through a thorough assembly line physical, introduced us to the frosh from near-by girls ' schools, bored us with hours of waiting in line for registration and books, and gave us a chance to explore our new hometown. Before long we experienced lectures and labs, labored over early English themes, and suffered through the first hour quizzes and Monday drill sessions. But there were brighter moments that year; as time progressed there was our first Houseparty Weekend highlighted by Vaughn Monroe ' s orchestra. Those of us who didn ' t go home for an early three-day vaca- tion found out why Houseparty was such a fabulous tradition at Lehigh. The tug of war between the huskier members of our Class and some rivals from Lafayette proved the Easton brand of freshmen far more scrawny than their Bethlehem counterparts. After this victory we removed our accursed dinks, using them thereafter only during the Lehigh Valley monsoon weather. We witnessed a successful Lafayette Game, although three more years were to prove that both the gods of football and of weather were against us; our hides were not only tanned, but were soaked as well in subsequent struggles with the Leopard. The Class of 1956 showed early signs of spirit and unity. We elected classmates to the Freshman Cabinet and voted two of our fellow Frosh to Arcadia, the Student Council. Fraternity rushing saw us polish table This scene was repeated over 5,000 times this year as the Placement Bureau conducted a record number of inter views. Starting salary offers also reached a record high with Engi- neers averaging $410 a month. The Senior Class Cane, traditional symbol of campus leadership is presented to the Class of ' 56 President, Duncan P. Aspinwall, by Donald H. Dimmick, President of the Class of 1955. The Placement Bureau does a laud office business over the counter, providing top- notch jobs for seniors. One of Air. Teal ' s assistants aids a senior in applying for a job interview. manners to perfection and become masters of small talk. When bids came out, over one third of our class pledged houses. The Lehigh Glee Club, fortified with a number of ' 56 voices, made an important appearance at Carnegie Hall. To end the year, we chose Preston Seidel to be our Sophomore Class President and Alan Mercer, Duncan Aspinwall, and Dave Walton as the other Class officers. Pres and Al left school before com- pleting their terms and Wayne Rayheld and George MacLean stepped in as President and Veep. As Sophomores, we returned to the campus feeling like veterans of this college business — we knew short cuts to registering and how to walk calmly to the front of the book line at the supply bureau. Some of us found how to put those first few free nights to good use at the Chor or the Ho . The Sophomore Cabinet sold Class blazers, drew up a formal Class constitution, and sponsored the Dink Hop and Sno Ball. Toward the end of the year we elected Bob Mc- Grory to head our Junior Class, and chose Duncan Aspinwall, Bill Burgin, and Dave Walton to assume other executive positions. Returning as Juniors, we began a year memorable in many ways. Our Class held a successful banquet at the Chor with well over half the men of ' 56 present. The big project of the year was sponsoring Spring Houseparty which featured the music of Les Elgart and saw Grace Hall decorated in tune with the week- end theme. Springtime in the South . That our Class contained exceptional examples of leadership and capability was evidenced on both the Miss Beverly Peterson of Douglas College was chosen Fall Houseparty Oueeu for 1955. athletic fields and in the realm of extracurricular ac- tivities. Bruce Waechter edited the 1955 Epitome, which won an All-American rating. Ed Eichelberger, also a junior at the time, was chosen the outstanding wres- tler at both the Eastern and National Wrestling tour- naments. But we were saddened by the deaths of two very capable members of our Class, Walter Messner and Bruce Thompson. A year later the tragedy of prema- ture death caught two more classmates, Frank Wither- ington and Tim Mahoney. These losses were felt by all. At the end of the year, we again elected men to head our Class — this time those chosen would stay in office for life and lead us as alumni. Duncan Aspinwall was elected President, and Fred Schaffer, Bill Burgin, and Tim Gray were chosen to serve as Vice-President, Secretary, and Treasurer, in that order. Our last year came much sooner than we thought possible. Returning to campus, we reflected on the changes in ourselves and in our University that had taken place since our arrival. That the Hundred Year Plan was progressing could be plainly seen with the completion of the new Fritz Lab and the Health Cen- ter; a new dormitory on its way up; Packer Hall gutted prior to its transformation to a badly needed Univer- sity Center; and the new Phi Sigma Kappa fraternity house rising from the ground in Sayre Park. We spon- sored Fall Houseparty, which boasted as its unusual theme A Night in Hades with the Sauter-Finegan orchestra providing music. The other big Class project was planning and canvassing for a gift. It was decided to continue the insurance program pursued by other classes since ' 38, and the first phase of the campaign saw a new record for early subscriptions. As the year wore on, we spent considerable time at the Placement Bureau and soon knew why this agency is so highly respected by alumni in the business world. The rush for our services was terrific, especially for those of us who were engineers. After March, those who had settled their future for the next several years and who were blessed by an easy senior schedule settled down to enjoy a final fling at college life which would end in June with graduation. An enthusiastic couple jumps to the rhythms of Les Elgart ' s band during Spring Houseparty. 286 The policy of the ME de- partment is . . . . a joking professor tries to tell bis class that the road ahead through Machine Design will he tough . . . many found that the joke was not so humorous.

An institution is the lengthened shadow of one man — Emerson Lengthened Shadows at Lehigh If Lehigh University is the lengthened shadow of Asa Packer it is also the projection of the dreams of men who have followed after him. It is the lengthened shadow of a student who is captured by the ideal of service to the University; of a faculty member who kindles the spark of greatness; of an alumnus who gives of himself to Lehigh ' s progress. There is respect for tradition at Lehigh, for the dreams of yesterday are neither forgotten nor disdained. When it became obvious a year ago that the greatest campus need was a University Center, Packer Hall was chosen to be remodeled for the purpose — Packer Hall, the first structure to be erected for specific University purposes. Here a building which the Founder provided personally would become the new focus of the Univer- sity ' s social life. One man made possible the original Packer Hall. Thousands of men will share in its transformation to a University Center. Each, in his way, is projecting a shadow and the sum-total is a greater Lehigh. Not all alumni are so constituted as to find satisfaction in sharing the progress of their Alma Mater. But it is not a coincidence that those whose lives have brought 334 A blending I tht old d ul tht new, Packer Hall, his- toric landmark of the University, becomes tht center o) campus social life. honor to the University have maintained a continuing interest and devotion. The total history of the University could be spanned by a lifetime. In these terms, recent discussion of a hundred year plan for Lehigh ' s future development does not seem extreme. Certainly the 1956 graduate will not find himself in strange surroundings when he attends his 50th reunion. But he may well ask himself on that day in 2006 what part he has played in the development of the University. The hundred year plan is comprised of many things but largely of constant striving toward the high- est calibre of student, taught by the best possible faculty with adequate facilities and in surroundings conducive to distinguished educational attainment. An endless task? Perhaps, but it was one to which Asa Packer set himself in 1865. Thirty thousand young men have been influenced by his action and have made notable contributions to our country and to the world in a crucial period of history. In a like sense, the real success of the hundred year plan begins today, for the Lehigh of the 21st Century will see the lengthened shadows of the Class of 1956. A changing skyline . . . The days of the Class of 1956 at Lehigh University may well be remembered as the era of Lehigh ' s chang- ing skyline. Since 1952 there has been constant evidence of progress on South Mountain in the form of bull- dozers, cranes, construction rigs, girders and steel frame- work, stonemasons, and all the activity that goes with a far-reaching building program. As one travels south through Bethlehem and crosses the Hill-to-Hill Bridge, the changing skyline is particularly evident. The eve- ning silhouette reveals the new steel stands at the east end of the campus, rising above the old cement bleach- ers of Taylor Stadium. Near the center of the campus, the Fritz Lab addition is contrasted with the Victorian towers of Packer Hall and the Gothic arches of the Chapel by its massive modern structure. Farther up the hill, the new Health Center, the third new project to be completed, raises its slate roof above the trees. But even as June 1956 approaches, the building process con- tinues. The stonework of a new dormitory grows higher with the passing of each day and red girders outline the new University Center. Accustomed to the roar of Diesel engines, the staccato Lehigh ' s new University Center is being con- structed by H. E. Stoudt and Son. fiM.lt s« - r: v , ■ H. E. Stoudt and Son is constructing the new Pbi Sigma Kappa bouse in Sayre Park. The Pbi Sigs should be able to move in early in 1957. m ' 4lv££ ill .. ?! •§!■ Mi $ SSI ft S m MM % s? - ' M-- H. E. Stoudt and Son is the general contractor for this 500-man resilience bail designed to end the sophomore squeeze? ' which forces second-year dorm men to more into town. It should he ready for occupancy in Fall of 1956. Grace Hall, which has served the University as a dance hall, sports palace, and an academic building, uas another of H. E. Stoudt and Son Lehigh campus projects. Frank Casilio and Sons ' concrete mixers, like the one shown here working on the new residence ball, are a familiar campus sight. bursts of air hammers gnawing away at South Moun- tain rock, and the soft, constant click of stonemason ' s hammers, students tend to forget the long months of planning which lie behind each of the construction projects dotting the campus. Each of the contractors shown on these pages spent weeks or months transform- ing the ideas of President Whitaker and the Board of Trustees into the concrete, steel, wood, and stone which compose the beautiful structures. Today ' s educational institutions, particularly those which wish to be in the forefront of American educa- tion, must have a first-rate physical plant. Offices, dormi- tories, laboratories, classrooms and university centers must be available to attract and hold the top faculty and the top students. With this realization, it becomes clear that the bricks and mortar is a means to an end, not important in itself, but vitally important in what it means as far as faculty and students are concerned. An excellent example is the story behind the bricks and mortar that are to become the new dormitory and University Center. The new dormitory will do away with the sopho- more squeeze , which annually forces sophomores out of the dorms to make room for incoming freshmen. The Student Health Center, shown here, along with the Sigma Chi and Sigma Phi fraternity houses, was erected by Earl W. Ecker Inc. The Health Center was con- structed in traditional style so that it would be in harmony with older buildings; the two fraternity houses are more modernistic. R. F. Sell ' s excavating apparatus, shown here at work mi the neu residenct ball. is a familiar sight on the Lehigh campus. In addition to tlnir work on this neu dorm, the trucks, bulldozers, and shovels worked on the excavation for the neie University Center. Hajoca Corporation supplies many Lehigh buildings, including Fritz Lab. with in- dustrial plumbing equipment. Over the years, Reber-Korn Com- pany has installed and serviced the beating systems for most of Lehigh ' s buildings. The new 300-man residence ball will be kept warm and comfort- able thanks to Lehigh Engineer- ing ' s beating installation. It will mean less crowding in the existing dormitories. It will mean that the unsightly tempos can be removed. The additional 294 beds that will be provided in this new building will make it possible for the University to assure the prospective freshman of a dorm room during each of the four years at Lehigh. The new University Center will, first of all, solve the important problem of adequate dining facilities. A fine cafeteria and a beautifully panelled, white table- clothed dining room will provide proper surroundings for good meals. Several separate dining rooms will be available for private dinners held by dormitory sections, clubs and fraternities. The faculty will also be well pro- Students in Fritz Laboratory, the Health Center, and the new University Center will be able to sweat through studies and examinations in air-conditioned com- fort thanks to the Carrier Air Condition- ing installed by Air Engineers. vided for in the new University Center in the form of .1 Faculty Club containing special dining facilities plus generous lounging and social rooms. Another very important function of the new Uni- versity Center will be to house the many undergraduate extra-curricular activities. Whether the club or activity is large or small there will be a place for it in the new building. For some organizations, such as the student radio station W ' LRN and the Brown and White. .1 series of rooms will be provided. In other cases where the organization is small, perhaps only a desk will be provided. All student activities will have a proper The finishing touches on many of Lehigh ' s walls have been applied by Duggan and Marcon Inc., which specializes in all types of lathing, plastering and acoustical correction. Although it contrasts with the more weather-worn nails of the other campus buildings, the clean brick-work of the new Fritz Laboratory symbolizes tin massive modern equipment inside. E. C. Machlin Company was responsible for this work. The hydro-therapy equipment, which gives the Lehigh Health Center patrons a chance to soak away their troubles, was installed by the Central Plumbing Company of Alleulou u. place. Packer Hall, the original building of the Uni- versity, will again become the very center of University life. The accomplishments that have been witnessed have been the result of the interest and support of thousands of friends and alumni. Dr. Whitaker ' s challenging program of progress has captured the interest of indus- try as well. Also, parents of Lehigh students have taken an active part in furthering the University ' s develop ment. Lehigh ' s progress during its ninety-one years of existence has been tremendous. In the past ten years alone, under President Whitaker ' s leadership, the total assets of the University have doubled. This astounding progress has already been an immense boon to the student body. The changing skyline is an indication that, because of the constant efforts of the Adminis- tration, Alumni, friends, and parents, Lehigh will con- tinue to improve and grow for many years to come. Bethlehem Electric Laundry ' s pick-up and delivery service gives the dorm duellers a chance to have th eir cleaning done professionally without hav- ing to go downtown. Education demands books and the University Sup- pi) ' Bureau stands ready to supply them as well as all other necessities for the classroom. The complex spiderweb network of ivire, function boxes, and cables that make up the electrical cir- cuits in the new residence hall and the University Center was carefully installed by Howard P. Foley Company, electrical contractors from Allentown. i 1 - |fc The transportation problems of the Broun and White Band, Glee Club, as well as those of he- high ' s athletic teams, are usually bandied by Tri- Cit Coach Company. When the men in Taylor Hall get together to raise the roof , they can be assured that before they really get started, one of J. J. Morello ' s men nil be along to fix the roof and keep the rest of the dorm under cover. The ties that bind . . . It is interesting to consider the ties which link the University with the community. Normally the Lehigh student gives little thought to this, viewing Bethlehem chiefly as a supplement to his college environment that is present largely for his own convenience. On the other hand, most of the Faculty and Stall of the University regard Bethlehem as a permanent home. Although many of them have come from other parts of the country or even from foreign countries, they frequently are active in civic affairs such as the Red Cross, YMCA, and Community Chest. Socially, civically, and finan daily, they bind the University to the community. Being busy enough with school work, the student doesn ' t normally involve himself in Bethlehem com- munity activity. However, there are main ways in which he gives tremendous economic support to the inhabitants of Bethlehem. As proven by a recent survey of campus spending habits, the Lehigh student spends an average of 52,700 each year to maintain himself at college. Multiply this by 2560 undergraduate students registered Krick ' s Bakery supplies its products to Lamberton Hall as well as to many fraternities to satisfy the appetites of Lehigh men for sandwiches, toast, or just plain munching. $43 Lamberton Hall is well known as the campus eating place. In addition to serving 2,000 meals daily in the main dining room, it has two rooms available for banquet service, and provides waiter service for full-course dinners in the knotty pine room. 344 during the Spring semester and you have a total oi nearly $7,000,000 spenl annually. A large portion oi tins terrific expenditure goes foi tuition and hooks. Engineers spend nearly $1000 a year, while Arts and Business students spend about $800 annually. Most of the tuition money goes directly into faculty and staff salaries and consequently returns to the Bethlehem market. Housing requires an additional $200 per student, much of which returns to the Lehigh Valley area after paying for maid service, building repair and construc- tion, furniture, and other requirements of Lehigh ' s dormitories and thirty fraternities, as well as remunerat- ing the owners of the numerous rooming houses in which Lehigh students reside. A generally insatiable appetite drains Lehigh pockets of about $500 per man each year. In the form of fairly regular meals and odd hour snacks this money keeps the student alive as he goes through his daily trials. Long study schedules and time spent in the classroom or lab must eventually be relieved by recreation and diversion. These require expenditures, often of consid- erable proportions, which cover movies, phonograph The milk dispensers, which are found in various residence halls, are maintained by Lehigh Valley Co- operative Farmers, which also sup- plies milk for several fraternities. Penn Coat and Apron Supph Company ' s student linen service permits the Lehigh students to slip between clean sheets once a week by furnishing an ample supply of linen. takes 15 gallons of milk a Jay to quench the thirst of the Pi Lams. Norbeth Dairy meets this challenging logistics problem with daily deliveries to Pi Lam as well as to many other fraternities. records, hotel rooms for dates, alcohol, and other enter- tainment. Campus parking lots overflow with cars of various vintage, each of which cost an average of $25 per month to operate. Gasoline, oil, tires, and repair jobs supplied by local garages and filling stations keep a Lehigh fleet of about 1300 cars on the go. In spite of the huge amount of money brought to Bethlehem by students from other parts of the country the flow goes in both directions. Added to the hundreds of thousands of dollars contributed by Alumni and to the generous support of the Steel Company, the Bethle- hem community gives the University loyal financial support of considerable substance. In the recent cam- paign, $500,000, or one-fifth of the total amount raised for the erection of Packer Hall and the new dormitory, came from the Bethlehem community. One of Lehigh ' s most popular non-alcoholic bev- erages is 7-UP. Lehigh men are assured of a con- stant and fresh supply of this popular mixer and thirst-quencher by the 7-UP Bottlers located in Bethlehem. Frank Piff and Son of Bethlehem provides door- to-door delivery of beer and soft drinks to many of Lehigh ' s fraternities. 346 Bethlehem Floor Company wages a never-ending struggle to protect Le- high ' s fraternity floors from the mud. dust and dirt tracked in from South Mountain. Bethlehem Coal and Supph Company ' s prompt deliveries bale helped keep many a fraternity fire burning through the cold it inter months. Bricker ' s Bread Company supplies Holsum bread to many of Lehigh ' s fraternities. Providing lumber for construction work on the campus, as well as for fraternity paddles, are a few of the services Brown-Borhek Compan) offers to Lehigh. H City Built by Steel Sprawling along the banks of the Lehigh River for nearly five miles, the vast plants and offices of the Beth- lehem Steel Company are dominant features of the Bethlehem landscape. By night the glow of the open hearth furnaces and the dancing blue flames at the top of the blast furnaces may be seen from the Hotel Beth- lehem, the Lookout on South Mountain, and from other points above the city. Rumblings emanating from the giant mills serve as audible evidence of the tremendous concentration of industrial might nestled in the Lehigh Valley. Towering along with the tall blast furnaces and rising above the waters of the Lehigh, the headquarters of the vast empire of Bethlehem Steel serves as a constant reminder to Bethlehemites that theirs is a city built by steel. 348 Partners in progress . . . The relationship of college, town, and industry is much deeper than geographical proximity. Long after the Moravians settled in Bethlehem, Asa Packer ' s canal barges and railroad cars were serving the small but thriving iron industry in the valley. Having become the richest man in Pennsylvania at that time from this trade. Packer decided to invest in an educational in- stitution with a special interest in technical training. and so he founded Lehigh University. It remained for Charles M. Schwab, an industrial tycoon gifted with supreme organizational ability, to buy the small Bethlehem Steel Company and create from it the gigantic steel corporation which exists today. The young steel corporation grew rapidly. To aid in this expansion, the dynamic leader chose many Lehigh graduates who were to become instrumental in shaping the modern industrial colossus. Of the men Mr. Schwab summoned from South Mountain, Eugene Clifford Grace, ' 99, is probably the most notable. Today Mr. Grace serves as Chairman of the Bethlehem Steel Com- pany as well as Chairman of the Board of Trustees of the University. These factors, combined with many other Lehigh-Steel affiliations through the years, have bound the University in many ways with the operation of the steel company. The beat, glare, and smoke that accompany the tapping of one of Bethlehem Steel Company ' s open hearths make the scene seem like something out of Dante ' s Inferno. The Plaza Restaurant, located across from the main offices of Bethlehem Steel, provides Lehigh men with excellent food. The collection of campus scenes on the walls contributes to the quiet, peaceful atmosphere. The massive silhouette of Bethlehem Steel ' s blast furnaces dominates the scene as one crosses south over the Penny Bridge at dusk. Bethlehem ... a city of contrasts A gigantic star . . . dark stone towers ... a winding river . . . dirty smokestacks — at first glance this is Bethlehem. Initially the impression of the city is slightly confused by the aspects these elements represent. It is difficult to imagine how these differences can be successfully resolved into a unified community. Beth- lehem is neither an idyllic example of the peaceful, rural college town, nor a vulgar steel town, devoid of refinements, nor a vitally significant religious center, nor a great musical and cultural area, but rather a small Pennsylvania city combining all of these elements in a rather unusual and successful manner. The Star of Bethlehem, standing above the city on South Mountain, is perhaps the most dominant land- mark. As the basis for the official seal of the city, the famous star emblematically represents the diversified aspects of the community: religion, music, industry, recreation, and education. Of these, religion and music are traditionally rooted in the North Side — bits of culture handed down since 1741 when the Moravians settled the community. The South Side, physically sep- The Hill to Hill Bridge is Bethlehem ' s main traffic artery across the Lehigh River.

To Lehigh, the towers come first, for they mark the University. Packer Hall, Packer Chapel, and the Alumni Building all soar above the crowded homes to the South Side and define upper South Mountain as the home of higher learning. When Asa Packer gave Lehigh her start, South Beth- lehem was rural and undeveloped, despite the growing The toll on the Sew Street Bridge for passenger airs has long bun a nickel, but, even though tin pedestrian charge of a penny has recently been discarded, the bridge is still known to Lehigh as the Pen it) Bridge. Meet me at Gus ' s is a familiar expression, espe- cially to the Packard Laboratory duellers. The little store on the comer of Sett Street and Packer Avenue has long been a campus meeting place. Anyone want to flick out? This phrase has spoiled many well- meant intentions to spend a night studying. The local movie houses give students a chance to relax without spending too much money. 5il The parched throats of untold numbers of Lehigh men and their dates hare been irrigated at parties by the prod- ucts of Frank Banko Beverages, which supplies both beer and soft drinks to Lehigh fraternities. Coffee and donuts at Gus ' s between morn- ing classes has become almost as great a Lehigh institution as Flagpole Day or Houseparty. Whenever the Lehigh man doffs his khakis and white bucks for white ties and tails, Victor Figlear ' s formal wear shop stands ready to serve him. A popular Lehigh meeting spot is the Brown and White Luncheonette, where students gather day or night for ham- burgers, cokes, milkshakes, or just plain hull sessions. The New Merchant ' s Barber Shop ' s loca- tion close to campus is ideal for the stu- dent who wants his ears moved out in a hurry. Christy ' s, a popular Lehigh hangout, is very proud of its pizza pies, boasting rightfully, You ' ve tried the rest, now try the best. Four chairs assure students of quick serv- ice at Derrico ' s Barbers. Derrico ' s loca- tion, near many popular restaurants on Fourth Street, makes it a favorite with the lunch-time croud. number of smokestacks of the young iron company in the valley. However, the canal barges and stage coaches of his era have given way to snorting diesels and fleets of rushing automobiles, even though hitch- ing posts and watering troughs still can be found along the pocked streets. Although these items remain to remind us of the past, they are anachronisms overshad- owed in the present by blast furnaces, automobiles, and other symbols of an age of power. The smokestacks have multiplied. Sooty sentinels of a mighty industrial empire now spread along the river from the coke works in Hellertown to the New- Street mills, not too far below the Packer Hall tower. Making millions of tons of metal a year, the Steel Com- pany has helped to roll and forge the backbone of mod- ern America. In doing so, the Company has unavoid- ably altered the destiny of the city as well. At present there are more than seven steel workers to one student, so the character of the South Side is largely determined by the huge working force. This explains the smattering of tongues — Spanish. Polish. Cireek. and other assorted languages the passerby can pick up along the sidewalks of Bethlehem. South Beth- lehem is a melting pot. Each group has its private club, thus the Astect Society, Windish Hall. Colored Voters Association, and numerous others are hidden among the shops which lie on the middle ground between the victorian towers and the grimy smokestacks. It is this middle ground which is most familiar to the student. Having explored much of it on foot during the freshman year, most students have an intimate knowledge, especially of the ten-block area between Packer Avenue and Third Street. North and South; an J East and West. In quest of good food, the foot-loose freshman explores much of the Fourth Street area dur- ing the first month of his college career. He finds this Lehigh men seem to agree that Alex ' s Lehigh Lunch series some of the best meals in town. Richards Esso station specializes in fast, efficient service to all its patrons. Many of Lehigh ' s extracurricular and stationery needs an died by Lehigh Stationery Company. a city within a city; an odd compromise between a col- lege town and a steel city made in favor of the student. Centered in this area are the banks, food markets, churches, cinemas, stationery emporiums, and State stores which add to University life. Newsstands offer anything from the New York Times to Playboy magazine. They not only keep the student up to date on current events, but also provide pin-up decoration for his room. Although the standard equipment for normal every- day campus use tends more toward dirty khakis, filthy bucks, shirts long ready for the laundry, and half-shaven faces than toward the Brooks Brothers ideal of an ex- pensively attired collegian, it is comforting to know that facilities are at hand capable of transforming one back to normal decency. Within a few blocks of the campus the shaggy-haired student can get his mane removed by the razor-wielding tonsorial craftsmen. The numerous barbershops keep students ' ears visible in spite of the discouragingly high rates charged for the scalping. Shops supply tuxedos, grey flannels, white bucks, and all the other accessories to the average college wardrobe. For those whose tastes run away from con- formity to grey flannels there are stores which provide The Tally-Ho, better known as the Ho , is a traditional Lehigh meeting place. Goody and his wife Anne are well known to many students, and have helped pull some of them through quizzes, rushing and other trials of school life. Many student organizations, in- cluding the Epitome, placed their hard-earned funds in the Bethle- hem National Bank. A member of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation. Its location close to cross-town fraternities, and its free parking lot, attract many students as depositors.

Vallev Supply and Equipment supplies the hard- it niriiig. high precision equipment and tools that have become a necessity in today ' s complex society. Dever ' s Drug Store ' s large selec- tion of cosmetics makes it very popular among the ' Lehigh stu- dents.

Menne Printer v helps fill this need. It may be money from home, but chances are that it will find a temporary resting place in one of Union Bank and Trust ' s special checking accounts before the Lehigh man decides to spend it. The Bank is a member of the Federal Deposit Insur- ance Corporation. pegged pants, motorcycle jackets, and dungarees. For the night out, a collegiate tradition as popular at Lehigh as at any other university, the town is well prepared. Ranging from the most refined tavern to the dingiest steel town pub, a wide selection of establish- ments is found within a few blocks of school. A few moments of socializing relax the tensions of the week and brighten the outlook on tomorrow. Those on a movie binge may likewise escape the routine of studying by preying on South Side movie houses. Although the influence of large numbers of juvenile citizens tends to favor shows of the Lone Ranger calibre, an occasional good movie saves a walk to the North Side, where the better shows predominate. Food, which until the completion of the University Center, will be the most important item supplied to the student by the South Side, is served by any number of places. The range of opportunity is wide, both in quantity, quality, and general atmosphere. One must learn to accept the differences between restaurant and home cooking. Caustically worded outbursts and tire- some waiting are among the hazards encountered by those who foresake the opportunity of doing their own cooking illegally on hot plates in the dorms. Complete gastronomical satisfaction commensurate with the stu- dent ' s idea of a good, cheap meal is a goal that can be achieved, although the trial and error process in- volved is sometimes rather lengthy. This then is the South Side of Bethlehem, important to every student because it is an important part of his environment. 356 Some satisfied patrons listen to the Roose- ent Bar and Grill ' s bartender spin one of his hill stories.

Third Street presents a lonely picture after dark in contrast with its crowded daylight scene. The East 4th Street Laundromat gives the Lehigh man a chance to catch up on his dirty clothes. The con- venience of the location, and the quick, dependable service make it well-patronized by students. All decked out for Christinas, the foot of Main Street, near Mora- vian Seminary for Women, is aglow with decorations. The Christmas tree on the Hill- to-Hill Bridge helps mark Beth- lehem as the Christinas City. Two hundred years ago, this corner of Alain Street lias tin site of the early Moravian settlement in Bethlehem. A location close to. or rather on top of. the bus terminal has helped make the American Hotel a good place to house dates over party weekends. The North Side inding down the- valley, the Lehigh River effec- tively severs Bethlehem into two dissimilar halves. Although three bridges and a city government common to both North and South side have attempted to unite Bethlehem, the union is merelv physical, lor there are cultural and social barriers which have kept the sections apart. Although the North Side reflects the influence of the Steel Company, its resemblance to the South Side ends with this. The North Side, home of Moravian culture and education, exists otherwise independentlv. It was here that the Moravians under Count Zinzendorf built their first house: on the same site now stands the Hotel Bethlehem, the home or returning Lehigh alumni. Quietly and conservatively, the descendants of these earlv German families have established a way of lite Friendly service and excellent food make the trip across town to the Maples Bar north while. Crosstown fraternity men have made this a meeting place in spite of its relative newness. which differs considerably from that of the hodgepodge collection of nationalities which exists in a less orderly fashion below South Mountain. The influence of the Moravians can be observed in Moravian College. Smaller and less boisterous than the larger institution across the river, it reflects the con- servative attitude of the area in its sturdy stone build- ings surrounding the Central Moravian Church. This different atmosphere naturally gives the Lehigh man opportunities for diversion from the drab routine of his immediate environment. Larger stores, different theaters, and newer eating places make an occasional stroll across the bridge a worth-while undertaking. Not all Lehigh men, however, have to cross bridges to get to the North side from their places of residence. Five off-campus fraternities find this a pleasant environment, in spite of the distance from campus. The differences between the North an d So uth sides which have existed ever since Count Zinzendorf ' s time are decidedly to the advantage of Lehigh students. The relaxation and change that can be found in the North Side provides welcome relief from the monotonous routine of its southern neighbor. Two Lehigh students check about their dates ' weekend accommoda- tions at the Linden Hotel with its owner-manager, Mr. Mihalikus. Furniture purchased at Lipkin Furniture Company graces many fraternity house lounges and liv- ing rooms. The 24 washers and four driers at Knauss ' Launderette help to keep the Lehigh population in clean shirts and socks. A plentiful supply of good food makes Clause ' s Restaurant across town on Main Street popular with students. aJ9l J ■; A good bar and good food combine to make Pure Food Restaurant the place to eat when the Lehigh man ' s pa ate demands a change from the usual bill of fare. It goes wonderfully with red . Mrs. Moyer of the Bethlehem Flower Center gives advice to two color- conscious students. Weiss Ford supplies cars to those students whose tastes run to non-antique, native- born vehicles. Although under the present management for only a short time, the agency has made Fords very popular in the I alley. nilentouun When Third and Fourth Streets becomes a part of school life indistinguishable from the normal routine of studies, and even Broad Street on the other side of town loses its lustre as a diversion, Union Boulevard is perhaps the most popular path of escape from Lehigh and Bethlehem after a hard week of work or a particu- larly rough round of hour quizzes. Not too far away for those who have cars, Howard Johnson ' s, with its abundance of multi-flavored ice cream, and Walps, famous for good Pennsylvania Dutch cooking, provides restful eating. A short distance farther down the road one finally arrives at Allentown. Many an unwitting freshman received his first im- pressions of Allentown when he first turned on his radio for early-morning wake-up music, only to be roused by the none-too-soothing sound of Uncle Tom criticizing the degeneration of the town. Such prejudices were soon dispelled, however, after the frosh ' s first visit to Allentown. Walking up Hamilton Street, he was impressed by the bustling big-city atmosphere of this medium-sized town; the towering structure of the Pennsylvania Power and Light Co., the blinking of the huge, glaring Hess Brothers sign, and seemingly end- less row of stores, banks, and restaurants. With 28 flavors of ice cream on tap, Howard Johnson ' s Allentown branch can satisfy any stu- dent ' s taste for exotic flavors. The good food and fast service make it an ideal place to take a date. The Hotel Traylor in Allentown provides com- fortable, clean accommodations for the parents and dates of Lehigh students during football weekends. Senior Week festivities and many other weekends. Walp ' s in Allentown, is the scene of many Lehigh course society and section banquets. The good food makes it a much-visited spot for Sunday afternoon dinner.

It has many ties with Lehigh despite its distance from campus Here one finds the home office of the l.amherton Hall Caters, ami Schlechter ' s, the printers of Lehigh ' s Brown and White.

The Foot- ball Team is annually isolated at the Hotel Traylor from the campus merry-making the Friday night pre- ceding the Lafayette dame. Ailentow us greatest value to Lehigh men lies prob- ably in its numerous places of entertainment — movies, bars, bowling alleys, the ever-popular Lyric Theater, and the Melody Circle, which provides an enjoyable fare of musicals during summer school. It is this aspect of the town which makes occasional excursions to Allen- town a welcome diversion in the college life of every Lehigh man.

D word of thooks . . . acknowledging the aid of: The Class of 1956 who helped the Epitome realize finan- cial success and gave the senior portrait photog- rapher excellent cooperation. We are especially indebted to Tim Gray, Senior Class Treasurer, and the other Class officers for their willing support; The advertisers, who open-mindedly responded to solicitations for our new type of advertising, mak- ing this part of the book a coherent part of our story of education at Lehigh; The students, faculty, and administration of Lehigh. who bore our shifting picture schedules and re- quests for aid with patience and good humor, besides contributing substance to our hungry sales fund; Mr. Richard Elliott, of the Morning Call newspaper, who photographed many of the ad section pictures and helped with other last minute missing photog- raphy; The Public Relations Office, for putting up with nu- merous inroads upon their picture files to obtain missing photographs which now enhance the pic- torial content of the book. Mr. Robert Herrick, former Director of Public Relations, was particu- larly helpful in lining up the color photographs of Fritz Lab and in helping out with typographic problems. Mr. Charles J. Moravec, now Director of Public Information, assisted us in securing pic- tures which would have otherwise been unob tainable; Mr. Richard Blattenberger. an art student at Kutztown State Teachers College, whose intricately detailed pen-and-ink drawings represent hours of eye- straining work designed to relieve the pages of the living groups section of an otherwise static design. The dedicatee and the abstracts on the College dividers pages are also the work of the same artist; Mr. James T. Gilmore of the S. K. Smith Company, who patiently helped us to get our vague cover ideas into reality; Mr. Paul Franz, who took time out from a busy fund- raising campaign schedule to write the copy for the Lehigh portion of the ad section; Mr. Donald Hunt, of the Bethlehem Globe Times, who supplied a number of sports shots at short notice to help us meet last minute deadlines; Airs. Dorothy D. Moravec, for keeping a close watch on the Epitome during the long months of prepara- tion and for helping with the typing of numerous business forms and other aids to office routine; The staff of the Brown and White, our neighbor in the Drown Hall basement, whose moral support was added to a large number of copy pencils, photo- graphs, and other items which were wilfully loaned to us or hastily borrowed by us; Our faculty advisors. Associate Professor Joseph B. McFadden and Mr. Walton H. Hutchins of the Journalism Department. Mac added wise judgements and profitable ideas to the minds of a hard-pressed business staff attempting to reach a goal of 1600 sales, as well as tempering the rash judgements of the editorial staff. Hutch read pages and pages of hacked-up copy and kept con- stant check on our progress, besides listening pati- ently to our woes; Dean Byron C. Hayes. Chairman of the Board of Pub- lications, who acted in the interest of the Epitome on several occasions which proved financially re- munerative to the Epitome: Added to aid was the invaluable professional as- sistance of the capable photographers, engravers and printers acknowledged on the following three pages: 364 Ptiiiistiikiu care in till phases of their nork is the secret behind Merin ' s high quality. Shown here is In Jacobs, the nnm responsible for most of the candid and group photographs in ibis year ' s Epitome. Merin Studios Photographs worth thousands of dollars Modern yearbook design is based up the old saj that a picture is worth a thousand words. Epitomt editors enthusiastically subscribe to tins theory, and endeavor to obtain a wide array of excellent pictorial art which tells the story ol a Lehigh year at a glance. Good photography is a fine art. requiring a hard-to- find combination of the artist ' s taste for beauty, the technical precision of the scientist, as well as ,m infinite amount of patience, and an ability to get the best out of the subjects being posed For the past two years, Marvin Merin, with his capable assistants, Milton Cantor and Irving Jacobs, b.is been helping the Epitome express the Lehigh story as only the photo graphic art can do. Mr. Cantor lias given us dignified senior portraits of which any photographer could be proud. Mr. Jacobs lias lined up group after group and spent hours driving up and down South Mountain cap- turing moments of the school year on film. The respon sibility for good pictures didn ' t end with the clicking of the shutter. Long hours spent developing, enlarging, and drying in dimly-lit dark rooms were required to produce a print of suitable contrast for engraving. Not in all cases did pictures spare the reader the trouble of forming a mental image of what we were writing about, but in general the Epitome ' s Literar) Staff was thankful for the many writers ' cramps and severe headaches avoided by photography which was worth main ' thousands of words.

Mickey Simon and Ferd Thun work with Bill O ' Connor in solv- ing the Epitome ' s last minute di- vision page problems. Shown is the copy for pages 98 and 99. JflHn OILIER Quality and Service— an unbeatable combination Photo engraving is a highly specialized process, re- quiring the best of everything to produce a top quality product. The budget-conscious staff, therefore, looks for a source wherein they can get the best, and the most, at a reasonable cost. Three years ago, the Epitome became acquainted with Bill O ' Connor and Jahn Oilier. It was not because of a dearth of business that we met. J O was already one of the country ' s largest fine photo en- gravers, making both color and black and white plates for many of the leading national publications for many years. Bill, as he is known to yearbook people all over the east, was working with some other schools in this area, and found it quite convenient to add Lehigh to his list of friends. For the past three years we have had a most enjoyable and profitable relationship with Hill and J O. Not only have we received high quality engravings at reasonable cost and always on time to meet our printing deadlines, but we have had the bene- fit of Bill ' s advice and assistance. He has given freely of his experience and knowledge of the school annual business to Lehigh ' s Yearbook Staffs, in the hopes of building a better organization and creating a finer and more complete Epitome. Gradually this policy has paid off, as each year a stronger, more experienced staff, capable of producing a better, more interesting Epitome has evolved from the previous staff. Bill O ' Connor and Jahn Oilier are an unbeatable team, as far as the Epitome of Lehigh is concerned. One of J O ' s cameramen prepares to shoot the copy for another Epitome di- vision page. This is the initial step in creating an engraved plate. Here, the fine copper plate is getting the finishing touches, prior to proofing and shipment to the printer. The end result appears on pages 282 and 283. The Kutztouin Publishing Company Craftsmen apply the finishing touches Sk Shown here is a section of Kutztowris offset depart- ment, where the plates necessary for offset printing are produced. All of the linotype for this Epitome was set on one of these four linotype machines, which allow flexi- bility both in style and size of type. Printing is the climax of a long and tedious job. Before the presses began to roll an enormous number of details were solved with the help of Messrs. Jacob Esser and Chester DcTurk of the Kutztown Publishing Company, who have patiently assisted Epitome staffs for the past ten years. Hundreds of pages of copy, marked with numerous corrections, were set in type, proof read, checked, and rechecked; pages were com posed from hundreds of engravings, identifications, headings, captions, and sub-headings; and finally, after the pages of type and engravings had been proofed and corrected, sixteen-page forms were assembled for the press. This, however, was not the end; the press- man then carefully adjusted each element of the form with micrometer precision to insure even inking of the printed pages. Only after this last finishing touch did the end result of months of co-operation appear in print. The painstaking craftsmanship of Kutztown Publishing Company speaks for itself on the pages of the 1956 Epitomt . iouards the back of this press room can be seen the large presses which print sixteen pages of tin Epitome at one time on a sheet 38 X 50 in size.
