The lair of the tiger bears an aura of tradition, a heritage centuries-old. an image cherished in tht; hearts of alums of the past seventy-five years. However, in recent years the face of Prince- ton has changed drastically with the heart of this change assumi-d to be the introduction of women into the student body. Cries of sacrilege from alums far and n( ar have poured into the ivy-covered walls of Nassau Hall, for the deci- sion to go coed has provoked more controversy than perhaps any other decision in Princeton ' s two hundred-year history. To the alums the ninv feminine aspect of Princeton has signalled the end of a glorious past, the ignominious demise of that revered institution. Princeton tradition. Has Princeton tradition suffered a severe blow with the changing times? It ' s true that many of the old traditions have faded. For ex- ample, the old Princeton that so many re- member has effectively ceased to exist. No longer does the interclass rivalry exist to the de- gree of seniors alone sitting on the sundial, of certain paths reserved for upperclassmen. and of certain types of dress for each particular class-cherished memories of old timers. And even more recently, the very atmosphere of dat- ing on campus has been completely altered. No longer are women, upon pain of expulsion, for- bidden in the dorms after 7:00 p.m.; no longer must the number of party weekends be limited to five per year; no longer must parties end by 1:00 a.m.: no longer must parties be chaperoned by a married couple at least five years beyond college-age; no longer does one escort a lovely young import down to Lake Carnegie to watch the submarine races at night-all charac- teristics of Princetonian life in the early fifties. Times have definitely changed. However, these changes are only minor ones in the all-encompassing scope of Princeton tra- dition, heralded by the change in the tim(!s. Such metamorphoses are inevitable with or without the presence of females on campus, and tho.se persons who attribute the passing of such traditions to feminine influence are refusing to bow to the world of the seventies. On the c;on- trary, the females on campus have added a new dimension to Princeton tradition. For example, there now exist both a tiger and a tigerette, a female tiger who parades with coeducation: ' 69- ' 74 the male to cinder PrinciMon ' s tii.inis on to vic- tory. And many of these teams are f(!male. In- deed. th(; women ' s tennis, crew, squash, and swimming teams are nationally recognized. Wom(!n have adapfcul th(!ms(dv(!S to every as- pect of Princeton tradition and hav(! in many cases revitalized dying inslilulions. Th(!y, as nuich as [hv. mem, care for Princeton and arc; as ready and as willing as any male undergraduate; to salute; Princeton ' s glorious past, although n(;ver forgetting that ahead of lh(;m lies a glori- ous future. In many cases n(;vv traditions have; (;volved. For example, one; of the most commonly occur- ring f(;minine (;xp(;riences revolv(;s around the (;ver-present debate over the merits of coeds v(;rsus imports. How discouraging the freshman girl finds being informed of the male opinion of her class ' s female segment, as a consequence of the males ' scanning of the Freshman Herald: in- deed, out of three hundr(;d girls, less than fif- t(;en might be considered acceptable; ; for to be;gin with, only twenty-five are even passably good looking , of whom at least five will be so bookwormish they ' ll never be seen, plus at least another five will have no personality; leaving at most fifteen adequate coeds. She sub- sequently learns that coed is a dirty four-let- ter word like Yale. Of course, the coeds counter with the merits of the female population and the disadvantages of the old cattle drives. and fight back admirably with lines such as. Im- ports is a seven-letter dirty word like Har- vard. Such rivalries have become a part of the Princeton tradition. Lastly, one of the; most vehement of alumni complaints has been that females will erode; the sense of male camaraderie that formed so much a part of the old Princeton. However, this fear has not as of yet been realized, at least not no- ticeably. Athletic teams and many activities are still segregated coeducationally; for instance, the singing groups and three eating clubs-Cot- tage most notably by a ve)te- e)f over one- hundred to three-have maintained their all-male status. All-male nude Olympics still delight Holder courtyarel audiences, foexl-fights still abound in Commons, people continue to swim in the Woodrow Wilson School Fountain. Male fel- lowship has not died; it has simply been e-n- rie;heel by a new dimension. This then, is coeducatie)n ' s eff(;ct on tradi- tie)n-a new dimension has been added, a e:hoice. an enrichening. The- most important as- pect e)f Princeton traditions still exists in the he-arts of oil Princetonians-the magical Princeton spirit. Prince te)n still has the same glow, the same unquenchable drive that it has always hael-nothing c:an change that. missv mcneil enlivening the classroom It was not so long ago that Princeton ' s male chauvinists apparently believed that the University ' s decision to be- come coeducational was made largely on social grounds, as if it were the Trustees ' desire to hold a sort of per- manent mixer here which would give Princeton men the opportunity of meeting attractive and intelligent women without leaving the comforts of their own dormitories: four or five years ago, a few may have even imagined that the Princeton female population was intended to serve in the capacity of slightly sophisticated call girls, energeti- cally committed to m(;eting the needs-social and sex- ual-of frustrated male scholars, but uninterested in pur- suing knowledge and truth for themselves. If pressed to the wall, even the most piggish of chauvinists would probably have concedt d that Princeton women might po- tentially make some; slight academic contributions, but these would certainly be limited, for the most part, to the donation of their feminine secretarial skills to the typing of the astounding scholarship of the Princeton male. By now, five years after coeducation came, the impact of the woman on Princeton can more accurately be gauged and, whatever one thinks of the heterosexual so- cial inter-action on the Princeton campus, one cannot help but be impressed with the performance of the aca- demic Tigress. While the actual figures are unavailable, I strongly suspect that the relationship between female ac- ademic success and male academic success at Princeton must be roughly equivalent to the relation.ship between the Princeton women ' s tennis team ' s athletic achieve- ment and the fading fortunes of the football team: those persons with the second X chromo.some appear to have won both rounds. That is not to .say that the Princeton woman iouiui smooth sailing on the University ' s academic .sea.s. Far from it. Until very recently, preceptors-some even in the more exact sciences— would predictably seek out ' the feminine view-point from the solitary woman in the classroom, as if she, like some sort of Congressional lob- byist, could speak only for the relatively narrow concerns of a special interest group. Just months ago, a modern lit- erature preceptor ' s blush almost matched the bright red crew neck sweater worn by the only girl in his class as he tried, for her benefit, to describe delicately the sexual im- agery in a D. H. Lawrence masterpiece. When an attrac- tive Princeton woman receives an attractive grade from a male Princeton professor, eyebrows are raised and know- ing smiles are exchanged as jealous male classmates fan- tasize how the interesting grade bargaining session must have taken place, dismissing, of course, the possibility that the grade was earned legitimately. A Princeton male who speaks up rather often or who dwells on his vast knowledge a bit long is dismissed as somewhat loqua- cious, at best, and perhaps pretentious, at worst. A Princeton woman whose classroom contributions are equivalent is an obnoxious bitch, pure and simple. As time goes by and as female enrollment climbs, one can begin to glimpse the day when Princeton women will be considered just as intelligent and stupid, just as in- triguing and boring, just as charming and annoying as their male counterparts. And, in fact, that day might ,il- ready be here. An early morning precept, held the day after the truste(!s announced an equal access admissions policy, b(!gan with a brief discussion of the impact true coeduca- tion might have at Princeton. The preceptor then turned to the lone woman seated at the long walnut table and a.sked, inevitably, for the coed ' s point of view. Without a pau.se or a smile, .she responded, Why look at me? We ' re all coeds now. jim lytic molivdlmfi cip )li(:(J(i()iis Princeton, one of the last male strongholds, regarded as the acme of male superiority in a world struggling to at- tain feminine rights, at long last opened its doors to the better half several years ago, opening a new spectrum for the woman choosing the college most suited to her needs. What a decision, especially for the woman consid- ering braving the new world of the Princeton coed, a to- tally new breed. The question of why women choosi- Princeton baffles many, including the women themselves. However, some factors stand out as common motivations. Underlying ev- eryone ' s decision-male as well as female-is the unde- niable academic excellence of Princeton. As one coed states. You start from the top schools that you hope you ' ll be able to gel into, and then you work from there. looking at other extra factors, both pluses and minuses. Princetons scholastic qualities are unquestionable, and it is with this knowledg e that every coed works to narrow But why Princeton? Why not Harvard or Yale, similar in many respects, or perhaps one of the women ' s col- leges? Obviously, one of the major considerations for any woman thinking about Princeton is the coeducational factor, the ratio of three to one playing a big role, an un- deniable role. For a girl looking for a coeducational school, Princeton is well suited to her needs. However, as strange as the fact may seem to guys, being a girl at Princeton does have its disadvantages. For example. some girls find it difficult to establish close girl friends; others find that the reaction they encounter when they say they ' re from Princeton is undesirable-either that people think they ' re Princeton-bound simply bccau.se of the ratio, or that others treat them with a stand-offish air One coed, in desperation, has taken to extending her hand and saying. You can touch. I ' m human. Even with these problems, girls still flock to Pinci ' ton ' s hnilowed halls. In addition to hv. convfuitional consid- erations of size, location, and opportunity, one of the most common reasons for girls to choose Princeton seems to be exactly that element which some feared coeduca- tion would destroy-its tradition. Tales of cane spree, stealing the clapper, football games and party weekends create an aura of togetherness, a sense of a Princeton spirit hard to equal. As a Princeton baby born and raised on the Princeton tradition of football games and wild reunion weekends. I can testify that Princeton tradi- tion played a major role for me as well as for many other alumni daughters. However, the tradition manages to per- vade every aspect of Princeton life, making itself felt to even the most casual passersby. Why Princeton? Perhaps the one overriding reason lies in the people here, and the; alums which seem to fill every corner of the United States, and the sense of love and loy- alty for Princeton that they manage to create in even the most casual conversations. After all, where else do alums return annuuUy. submitting in 90° weather to outrageous costumes and a parade through the campus in wild array, flanked on all sides by cheering friends, family, alums, and undergraduates? These same undergraduates, while they may complain and fuss and often shake fists at the University, will be the first to say that even though Princeton has its faults, there ' s nowhere else they ' d rather be. Basically, then, the reasons for feminine interest in Princeton are the same as those of their male counter- parts. However, there is one change that most women would like to see. and that is in the prevailing alumni re- action to coeducation. That reaction alone remains a sore .spot in a campus that has succes.sfuUy integrated males and females-so well, in fact, that Amherst, an all-male school thinking of going coed, chose Princeton to study. Complaints of horrible, blue-jean-clad coeds destroy- ing Princeton life unjustly condemn a new breed of women, capable of adjusting to an all-male establishment with grace, femininity, and accomplishment. We only ask that we be given a chance to prove ourselves to these dis- gruntled alums, and that they wait to judge until they have experienced the Princeton woman. Only when this is accomplished will the last barrier to complete accep- tance at Princeton be hurdled, and only then will Prince- ton become the acme of a cniHlur.alionnI institution. considered bv a senior With the advent of coeducation at Princeton in 1969, the university began to assume a new image. The all-male orientation of previous years began rapidly to deteriorate. It was not long before we had women engineers, women jocks and women bartenders. From Marsha Levy ' s acceptance of the Pyne Prize in 1973 to Wendy Zaharko ' s accomplishments on the squash court, we saw women excel in all areas of Princeton life. The change was accepted by some, welcomed by many and rejected by others. Certainly the sight of girls going into McCosh, East Pyne and the library was a strange phe- nomenon for men of the classes of 1969-1972. There was a lot of adjusting to be done. Unfor- tunately, to the women it seemed as if they were doing it all. One graduate of the Class of 1973 vividly recalls the stares and looks of astonish- ment that often preceded her into a classroom. During my freshman year the stories of coed experiences were continually floating around. Thinking back on them, I can ' t help but laugh, although much of the laughter comes from ex- amining my own experiences with Princeton women and from finding that even today the stories hold a certain amount of truth. To a degree coeds are still not accepted by some male members of the university commu- nity. The reasons for these views are for the most part subjective, but they still deserve to be heard. For some pt-oplt ' soci.il litr .it I ' lincctoii I1UMI1S little; for others it is ex crythiiij . 1 i ' ' think th.it 1 fit somcwhrre in the middle. From tliis position it is e;isier to see both sides. When speaking iibout social life and the effect of co- education, we have to ask whether women have affected it and. if so. what their effect has been. Unfortunately, by many of my friends Princeton womiMi h.ive gone unnoticetl; or. indeed, Prince- ton women have .iffected them adversely. Per- haps this is a statement only about my friends but 1 really don ' t think so. Rather 1 see it as a failure on the part of many Princeton women to contribute to the social life of this university. Of course, not all the blame is theirs. One of the major problems at Princeton is the unequal sex ratio. With three men to every woman it is quite difficult to meet and share ex- periences with a coed. From the engineer ' s point of view this is even more difficult since the male-female ratio is significantly greater than three: one. Even in those classes where the ratio is almost equal, it remains quite difficult to meet coeds. Of the Princeton women I know, there are not more than a handful that I have met in class. Of these, most are mere acquaintances. The amount of effort necessary to meet and date a coed is phenomenal. I know of one girl who was almost continually booked up for three weeks in advance. Needless to say. putting up with that kind of competition is more than most guvs can take. Another factor in the male rejection ot Princeton women comes from a desire to view women as being feminine; However, many a coed wants to be just another guy. One such example of the Princeton woman ' s drive for complete equality appeared last year when two well known female jocks decided to play lightweight football. Their desire was so strong that they even threatened to go to court if they were not allowed to play. Their wishes were granted but their mouths were bigger than their desires, and when spring conditioning came around, our two females did not. Certainly, one can understand a woman ' s de- sire to be academically and intellectually equal, but is it so much of an insult for a man to want a woman to be a little feminine? According to some coeds with whom I have spoken, this is exactly the ca.se. They do not feel they will be equal until their sexuality is completely ig- nored. Unfortunately, one definite problem with coeds is that they fail to see themselves in the capacity of females, so how can a guy think any differently? Along with coeducation came a decline of tra- ditionalism. Of course, this is another subjective view of mine. Not everyone thinks tradition should play a part at Princeton. One Princeton ti,i(iilH)ii still trying to survive is the all-male citing club. A person ' s private; life; should be his own; in consj-quence. the; disgust many women feel toward a club that will not admit them bor- ders on the ridiculous. Perhaps if they would view the all-mahr club merely as a viable alt(!r- nalive to th(! coed clubs rathcT than as a p(;r- soiial insult, they would be less upscM. While (iveryone is not going to agree with uh.it I have said. v(rry little searching is re- (piinMl to find that Princeton social life has not y(!l completely adjusted to cotiducation: this fact is made evident by th(! numb(!r of imports flooding the campus each w(M!k(md. For me a coeducat(Ml social life has been a satisfying ex- perience. For othi rs it has not. Quite; evid(!nlly there are still a number of problems that must be solved. Nevertheless, my grt atesl desire is to see a Princeton where men are men and women can view themselves as women without trying to deny their own femininity. Only then will a coed social life at Princeton reach the same heights achi(!ved by coed academics. i(nv(nl by a fn shmun As I turned my thoughts toward college in late Soptem- ber of my senior year, I was overwhelmed by the number of institutions willing to accept my application-pro vided it was accompanied by a twenty-five dollar check. One Saturday night, feeling a bit panicky, I sat down with a catalogue of U. S. colleges and a list of things I hoped to find in a college. Stuck somewhere in the middle of that list of criteria was the ratio of sexes: I wanted a college that roughly approximated society. By Sunday morning I had worked out a list of ten colleges that looked good. At this point coeducation really was an unimportant factor: it was easy to find colleges with sex ratios between five- to-one and one-to-five. Seven months later when 1 had to make the final deci- sion, the extent of coeducation became a much larger fac- tor. I had three colleges I was seriously considering, equal in almost every major aspect, and I was scraping the bot- tom of the trivia barrel in trying to make a decision. It was then that I began listening to all the prophets of doom preach about the sex ratios. Dartmouth, I was told, was populated by animals who, starved for female com- pany, regularly made mass weekend migrations to the more fertile southern lands. Princeton, being so close to New York, was great as long as you had a car and a bill roll that stretched across the country. Satisfying these conditions you might be able to date a coed once a month. Townies and exports, although not as intelligent, were more plentiful and better looking than the coeds af- ter you found the right contacts. Finding the right con- tacts, however, just might take all four years. The Yale alumni were convinced that Yale was vastly superior to all other Ivy schools in numbers and looks of coeds, and to prove their point, they made all their seminars coed one-to-one. Friends and classmates worked hard to con- vince those of us contmeplating Eastern schools that we were heading for instant insanity. They warned us that we would quickly be driven to the wildest lengths of des- peration chasing coeds that didn ' t exist. In all, it was a gloomy social picture I foresaw when, letting other con- siderations overrule the sex-ratio gossip, I chose to come to Princeton. Now, five months later, I can view the situation from a much more rational and knowledgeable position. It is true that girls are not on every street corner, but then again neither are they an endangered species. At times getting a date with a coed can indeed approach the im- possible, but with a little planning say two or three weeks of it, is is actually possible to go out on an occasional Sat- urday night. The situation is really not as bad as mere sta- tistics would seem to indicate. A helpful junior I met ex- plained it to me this way: First, one segment of any male class is so discouraged by previous reports that they never even try to get a date. Second, there seems to be a larger percentage of boys with girlfriends at home than girls with hometown boyfriends. Third, more boys turn into complete bookworms than girls. The net effect of these three factors is that the real ratio is reduced to the point where a perseverant male can usually find a date. However, since most of us spend more time going about trying to get educated than we spend searching for a Saturday night date, it is the day-to-day contact one has with the coeds on campus that is most important.

To hv inorr specific, my hi«h school boasted a uradualinjj class of four hundred, and after spending; six years lonelher, we knew each other all loo well. Therefore, 1 found comuiK to Princeton and finding; a thousand f-irls that 1 didn ' t know a refreshing experience. 1 have also found livinj in Wilson C.ollene a help in overcoming the .sex ratio. Wil- son is bi« enough to contain a reasonable number of coeds, yet small enouKh so that you can meet a per.son one ni ht at dinner and still be able to find him a ain the next night-something not always possible at Commons. Non-academic activities have been another great help. Sports that practice on a coed format such as gymnastics. karate, and, to some extent, scpiash and crew proviile a place to make acquaintances that with a little work can l.ni.iden into friend.ships. It all bods down to the simple |.u;t that with all the opportunities that Princeton pro- vides, anyone who is willing to make a little effort to meet people will be able to meiM a rea.sonable number of .;oeds. This survey is the view of .i freshman to whom every- thing at Princeton is still fresh and exciting. Conversing with upperdassmen, 1 notice that for many this excite- m(!nt wears off; people start to move in the; sam(! circles, learn to know everyone in lh(;se circles, and find th«! three-to-one ratio beginning to bcsar down. HoweviT. I will enjoy my freshman enthusiasm as long as it lasts and say that, particularly considering the fact that 1 should spend the majority of my time hrvv. working rather than girl-watching. 1 cannot justifiably complain about the number of coeds on campus. Steve; evitl dramati .i ;;i i i(!(.T n If I ' m to believe what everyone tells me, being a female engineer is unusual. I generally don ' t regard my position in that light until some bystander comments upon it. Granted, women constitute only a small fraction of all engineers, both nationwide and at Princeton; thus, th(;re is numerical justification for being labelled unusual. Yet. as an aspect of my personal life. I see nothing at all un- usual about engineering. It merely happens to be the field of study in which I ' m most interested. I ' m just another student-just another engineering student. Admittedly, these thoughts have not always constituted my outlook on the subject. My impressions and opinions have formed and shifted over my past two years at Princeton as I ' m sure they will continue to do in the future. My class was distinguished by being the first engineer- ing class to boast of more than three female members. At a reception during freshman week, the Dean of the Engi- neering School proudly announced that our entering class included nearly fifty football captains, an approxi- mately equal number of class presidents, and fourteen women engineers. Somehow, I felt this grouping to be a dubious honor and was slightly disturbed at being sin- gled out as an interestng statistic. In addition, since we women were the only visibly distinct group, our group status was doubly emphasized. For several months there- after we were known as the Fourteen. A group spirit did exist among us by second semester- created, perhaps, by virtue of our group label and by the fact that we had many classes together. (Freshman engi- neers take primarily the same courses.) Personally, I felt the need to be with other female engineers and to de- velop an identity as such. For whatever vague and vari- ous reasons, we banded together to form a student chap- ter of the Society of Women Engineers (SWE) in February of 197,3. Sophomore year brought about several significant changes. The character of the group changed as a few women decided engineering was not for them and as sev- eral new women transferred into engineering. The group ' s spirit seemed to dissipate as we scattered our- selves among the four departments. Our group associa- tion now focuses itself primarily within our separate de- partments. Due to the isolating influence of our departmental courses, we each generally see only the women in our own department. 1 am most struck by the apparent dramatic reversal in attitude toward SWE. Support and interest in the chapter by the women in my class has virtually died out. Perhaps it is because we are scattered among the departments and because we no longer have the time to get involved. Or, perhaps we ' ve already outgrown the need for such a group. For example, I personally am now secure in my identity as an engineering student. I find my sex irrele- vant to engineering and sense no speical consideration or treatment because I am a female. Male classmates accept me as an engineering student like themselves. At present, I would say their attitude is prevalent among Princetonian engineers. ' Virtually no notice is taken of our female gender, especially among the classes with the largest number of women. It is the upperclass nonengineers who continue to comment upon the rarity of women engineers. During Bicker, after I answered the inevitable What ' s your major? , I always received some variation of Really! Wow. That ' s unusual. There aren ' t many girl engineers, are there? I had virtually forgotten that my field of study and my career choice could be con- sidered out of the ordinary until the fact was repeatedly pointed out to me. Thus, according to outside opinion, being a woman en- gineer is a unique Princeton experience. But as far as I ' m concerned, it is not. terri pauline (ili iiii; Kilter Vfiiiis. the ' 67- ' 68 Triangle show, oui si ' vcnty- mnlh-lwi) yi-ars before; coeducation made its eiilritinc ,il Princeton, one year before Triangle went coed (I ' ll gel to that in a second). Maybe we should switch to prophecy instead of musical comedy. In a nutshell, coeducation made Triangle go legitim.ilr. A healthy proportion of Triangles comedy was pre- viously based on its existence as a drag show. When men play all roles, certain possibilities for comedy are opened while others become impossible. Subsequently, during Princeton ' s transition to coeducation we drew our humor from the situations of this transition. Now that that transition is essentially complete, our (.(Uiicdv must Kick of ea- ' eg. She was a critter, a critical languages student.

And Kick presented the Heaven Eleven, Prince- ton ' s first all-girl football team (in drag as per tradition). Call Spinlv a Shovel, although one of Triangle ' s more painful memories in general, celebrated the first year of official coeducation at Princeton with six very talented coeds, including Carey Davis ' 73 who later became Tri- angles first female officer. To borrow a phrase from the Band, we took a long, hard look at coeducation with such situations as a new coeds lament that My Room- mate ' s a Girl and ■ ' We ' re Here -expressing the first coeds ' jov at being at Princeton and their desire to keep coeducation at its present marvelous level (i.e.. the pres- ence of themselves alone among all those guys).

This was the Pj N B skit which was a double rev(!rse drag (guys as girls, girls as guys) spoofing a typical football werikend with its imports. Othcrwi.se. Triangle was moving away from its Creek format and was beginning to realize that women might have something very positive to offer to Triangle. Blue Cenes was the first show that I actually worked on. The show made its debut in the spring of 1972 when coeducation had become a reality for Princeton and for Triangle. Thi re witc approximately thrire hundred women in the class of ' 7.5. and Triangh; drew some of the more talimteid ones. The show saw [oan (;allos ' 73 defeat her twin brother Steve [ames ' 74 for freshman class president of Inter Collegiate University. The show also offered a token drag scene in the dream sequence of Act II. Perhaps most significantly, Claire Town.send ' 74 served as production stage manager. Our eighty-fourth production Future Schlock saw Tri- angle with two female officers. Carey as vice president and Claire as secrcMary. The show did use drag, or more appropriately sex role reversal in several of its major scenes. But, importantly, this percentage of drag func- tioned in support of the show ' s underlying theme: that of tw(!nly-first century reconstructing events of the twen- tieth from the fragmentary records following the Holo- caust. Thus, these reversals were the natural theatrical result of our motivating premises. Now that coeducation is fully realized. Triangle must likewise realize that its material can no longer lean on the crutch of drag. Now our comedy must stand alone upon the same foundations on which all theatrical comedy rests. In a narrow sense, then, the tradition of the Long Kickline has ended. But in a more meaningful, less eph- emeral sense encompassing expression of the contempo- rary as well as preservation of the ancient.

Ihit it is morning now. and the activity is taking i dic (111 le fields behind New-New Quad. People drift down to watch muscular ruggers and agile soccer play- ers defend the honor of Old Nassau. On the center field, others are carrying on the same tradition: the women ' s field hockey team. They win, 5-3; and will go on to cap- ture the HYP Championship for the second time in their three-year history. Someone fokes, Now we can make a pair of earrings with the medals. The success of the field hockey team reflects the over- whelming success of Princeton ' s women ' s teams in gen- eral. In three years they have won a half-dozen HYP Championships and fourteen regional championships (mainly in tennis); placed in national championships five limfs (squash twice: swimming, sailing, anti crew): iiiid achieved a collective record of 95-23-1. Yet. such accom- plishments really don ' t surprise Merrily Dean, under whose direction the wt)men s athletic program began. ' Tve always believed th.il thi-re is a close correlation be- tween athletic excellence and excellence in otht-r areas . The girls were successful in the beginning and have tried to continue that success. The desire to win is purely self-imposed. They don ' t have the outside pressures caused by recruiting and alumni expectations. Ms. Dean was hired in Ult !l lo develop an athlirlii; pro- gram for the entering women as the University prepared for coeducation. The first step was physical education, followed closely by intramurals. The effort was made lo provide an opportunity for the handful of interesteii girls to continue their involvement in sports. Some tennis players got together, entered and won the Eastern Inler- coliegiate Championships to become the first official var- sity team. The next year everything blossomed as teams were added in field hockey, squash, swimming, basketball, and crew. Princeton now has eight varsity, three junior varsity, and five club sports for women, in- cluding lacrosse, sailing, fencing, gymnastics, volleyball. ice hockey, and badminton. It would be appropriate to ask, Is Princeton reolly coed in the area of athletics? Some would argue that such is not the case. Their view is based on the fact that the women ' s teams still do not have all that they need in the way of facilities, equipment, and operating expenses. A frequently cited need is for a women ' s dressing area in the boafhouse. It ' s unhealthy not to be able to change from our practice clothes until we get back lo our rooms, especially in bad weather, said a member of the women ' s crew team, and it ' s embarassing not to have any place for visiting teams to change. Plans for the locker room have apparently been made, but the Athletic Department is awaiting an opportunity to fit the project into the budget. Although the deficiencies that exist are annoying, most of the women feel that the University, with help from pri- vate donors, has managed quite satisfactorily. There is a tremendous expense involved in starting an athletic pro- gram where none existed, and a realistic limit as to how much money is available each year. In the past four years the Dillon locker room has been renovated, a dance stu- dio and another locker room in |adwin built, expensive equipment for crew and gymnastics purchased, and uni- forms obtained for each team. The basketball team re- ceived shoes this year and a set of warm-ups which is shared with the field hockey team. Dillon library is presently being renovated for use in social gatherings af- ter contests, a tradition which has developed with some of the teams. In addition, there are plans to obtain a sec- ond Universal Gym and sauna baths at Dillon through the women ' s program, which would be available to both male and female athletes. Financial criteria are not the only standards that can be used in judging the degree of coeducation in this area. Less easily measured emotional factors are also impor- tant. Although some hard-core opponents of coeducation facetiously blame women for the slump experienced by certain of the men ' s teams in recent years, no true corre- lation has been found to support their opinion. In fact, most of the sports that have both male and female partici- pants-squash, tennis, and swimming especially-have done very well. , - 1 v« 1 i HI . In general, the attitudes toward female athletes have been changing in a positive direction. Growing atten- dance at women ' s athletic events is concrete evidence of that fact. On some days the hill behind the tennis courts fills up: there is standing room only at the Princeton-Yale basketball game. Off the courts and playing fields, the girls are completely accepted socially. Their visibility to the Princeton community may give them an advantage over other coeds-although some of the men say it also leads to swelled heads As women ' s athletics develop and the general outlook becomes more favorable, the views of spectators are also growing milder. Female ath- letes are considered less a rarity than they were a year ago. The surprised comment, Yuu ' nt a girl jock?! is heard less frequently. It may elicit any response from a proud retort to the slight correction. Well, actually a Iddy jock. With tradition so pervasive in all areas of Princeton life, it has not failed to encompass the women ' s athletic teams. They take pride in the fad that no varsity team has ever lost to Yale. With additions and modifications, the women are guided by the same traditions that have permeated men ' s athletics. As .Sports l uslroled noted in an article about the Women ' s Rowing Championships last |une, When the Princeton women stand in a circle and sing Dhl Nossau, the resemblance to other Tigers is eerie. calhv brown breeding, u fcmuUi imci ' c There seem to be two distinct currents of opinion among Princeton men concerning Princeton women. The first is well-stated by the observation of a short, rather homely freshman: They ' re a bunch of stuck-up snobs. Most of them are dogs. And the few good-looking ones won ' t even talk to you. The other perspective is summa- rized by the comment of a tall, good-natured senior: They ' re pretty much like normal girls. Some of them are really good people. Some aren ' t. Some are beautiful. Some aren ' t. The latter statement is probably closer to the senti- ments of the majority. It is echoed by most up- perclassmen— except some hard-core eating-club men- as well as by a good number of freshmen and soph- omores, particularly the ones who appear to have ad- justed well to college life. The freshman ' s view of Princeton women is shared by many of his classmates. His thoughts are understandable. Social life can be pretty rough for the less resourceful fn!shman males. There is a consequent tendency to put the blame on the Princeton girls and to compare them un- favorably to high school girls, who are remembered as universally charming, beautiful, and promiscuous. The relationships between Princeton men and women are further characterized by many Princeton men in the following way: Most relationships are more of a friend- ship type. The girls are close friends, people you can rely on. You look elsewhere for sex. Thus, those Princeton men who seek something more than a platonic relation- ship with the girl-next-door often meet with frustration. As one junior put it, There are a hell of a lot of teasers. In general, the majority of Princetonian males would agree that this statement, made by a perceptive soph- omore, summarizes their own feelings pretty well, The average girl here isn ' t that much different than the aver- age girl on the street. Of course, the Princeton girls are a lot more intelligent, but that ' s no big deal. Princeton girls have too much of a tendency to play games with boys, but what can you expect with a three-to-one ratio? andy oser (miucik itimi; (i ninlc itiHinr Crew cuts and lo.ifrrs. b.inny p.inis .ind iiullovcr svvciit- ers-the Princcloii |)ri ' ppir im.inr li.is infillriilcd nil rr- gions of Ihf country from the Appalaclii.in Mountains to the casinos of Las Vi ' as. High school ffmalos. comparing the merits of Princeton with the qualities of various other U.S. colleges, conjure up romantic ideals of Ivy League sophistication, class and gallantry. Kven Princetonian males dream of their own superiority and elevation above the ordinary as they feed upon the malnutrienis ol the traditional boasts of alums. So we are left with the one stereotyp ' of an intellectual he-man gifted with all the talents and physical attributes ever bestowed upon mankind. Rather a dull place, that Princeton-if all the males really live up to those reports, if all the males truly exist to represent one character, one ideal, one cate- gorical sub-type of personality. Strangely enough, my personal experiences indicate a little more variety and. indeed, a little more depth among the Princeton men. I have not, in fact, found even two that I would class under the same heading in any com- prehensive human analysis. Their qualities range through an infinite spectrum in all aspects, and yet 1 could make some very general comments with regard to the charac- teristics 1 have found most in evidence. After two years of my coeducational ' Princeton expe- rience, I retain principally a favorable impression of the male segment of the population. 1 have found an in- tellectual depth and particularly a concern for issues and values and persons beyond that apparent in many of my off-campus acquaintances. Princetonian men indicate a notable openness, a willingness to take the first step to- ward building a friendship. More important, they make an effort to foster relationships-true relationships basiid on the interactions between people, relationships that can develop in all directions according lo .my defiiiilioii applicable lo life, Princeton males are uncommon in that each individual exhibits. some very special quality, one parlicul.ir charac- teristic that sets him apart from the masses and demands respect. Presumably, every human being possesses some trait that should serve as motivation for further (explora- tion of his character through acquaintance. Yet, a Prince- tonian seems mor(! capable of communicating his thoughts and more confident of portraying his unique identity in the society of others. This ability lo adjust to strange or unknown situations without needing to mask his soul len ls the Princetonian his aura of distinctness, of standing apart from hc. commtm hord(!. On the other hand, perhaps a degree less confidence would promote more mutually satisfying relationships, particularly between the Princeton man and the Princt;- ton woman. With his accustomed success in self-ex- pression among new ac:quaintances, the Princetonian male arrives on campus displaying a cocky assurance that he will sweep off their feet all females in his path. When his first telephone call lo that fawning coed en- counters only a busy signal, he indignantly withdraws to assert that she is being ov(!rwhelm(!d by the advances of the other three thousand Princeton men. He effectively places her out of reach as regards dating or even commu- nication. Perhaps a less expansive initial confidence would induce a greater perseverance and an awareness of the coed ' s dilemmas resulting from the three: one ratio. Nevertheless, I find that the Princeton male image most generally supported by Princeton women is of an individ- ual to be respected for what he offers of himself, and to be est(!emed for his contributions to a relationship of any depth. The image also involves the male ' s uncommonly broad range of experiences in life and consequent gains in self-knowledge, lending a confidence and tendencies toward self-assertion. The Princeton man stands erect as an individual of merit and as a person cognizant of that fact-thus according to the Princeton woman. candv con way in coexistence witi: importation The sun is just sinking behind Ihc (iorinitnrics alonj University Place. The whistle blows— two, Ihiec, lour times. And the trusty PJ B rolls into the depot. Waiting anxiously are fifty hearty Princeton men. waiting for their Vassar girls, their Ciiffies, their hometown girls, their IMPORTS. Of course, they were never called imports in those days. They were just the girls coming for the big week- end. And indeed those weekends were big. Football games-with winning teams— dances, big club dinners, at- tempts to circumvent parietals. Parietals?-what are they? Oh, Princeton used to have visitation hours and rules. In true Ivy tradition, they called them parietals. How those girls loved Princeton men! But then if I had been a girl in that period. I wouldn ' t have minded some crew-cut preppie blowing his life ' s savings on me. I wouldn ' t have complained about those barbaric pariet- als— actually I would have preferred staying at the Inn to sleeping in the dorm. And how Princeton men loved those girls! Any guy ap- preciat(!s a girl who is obviously impressed with his school, his club, his room, his Lester Lanin albums . . . And these females were so much fun, all laughter and games. Not to say they were mindless or anything like that. They just liked good times. The nicest part of these weekend adventures was that they were just that-weekends. Sunday morning the Princeton man could count on walking his date back down to the station and seeing her off until the arrival of another scintillating Tiger weekend. Nothing to worry about during the week. No bother at all. Import, export. Yet, the same process is still being enacted today-ev- ery weekend. Not with the nearly mass appeal it had even six or seven years ago, but still in the capacity of one booming business. Yes, indeed, the IMPORT system is alive and well at Ol ' Nassau. I myself would be hard put to explain fully why guys here still go through the old routine. At any rate, shipping in a date for the weekend still has enormous appeal. Few Princeton coeds can know the relief of saying good-bye to a date at the end of a weekend. The act is nothing cruel and heartless-merely a relief. Indescribably delicious. A number of other rea- sons provide further explanation for the ongoing impor- tation of foreign women: that hometown charm, lust for the unknown, frequent losses on the home field, and so forth. Despite these excuses, I believe there exists within the male supporters of Princeton importation a common paradox, exemplifed by myself. ' Witness the practicing, confessed importer who, nevertheless, would not have com(! to an all-male Princeton. So, you ask, what am I doing to show my appreciation of Princeton coeds? Why aren ' t I dating them more? Why must I import girls? I don ' t have to answer those questions. Neithin- doi s any man at Princeton. Neither does any woman here who brings in a dale.

On January 19. 1974. the infamous Princeton Board of Trustees made an earthshattr ring decision which will af- fect generali(ms to come. By a mandate of 28-:i, the Board voted to permit m(;mbers of the f(!mal(! sex equal access to the Office of the Controller. This unprecedented mesa- sure of radicalism may result in drastic population changes at P.U.; a decrease is projected from the present HOC) men to .somewhere in the range of 799-79fi. Isn ' t that terrific. The Board of Trustees has finally come to agree with the National Lampoon ' s placement of women on the geneological tree in a position above household appliances. Let us rejoice in the bureaucracy ' s generous gift of the opportunity for womim to broaden their horizons via Psych 102. Yes. the Tigress is here to stay, despite the reservations of some metaphysical alums, who reveal the end products of their liberal, mind- opening Ivy League education in their letters to Prospect. That is not to say that alumni coeducational distress is not justified. Indeed, a femah; overdose could cause the malfunction of P.U. ' s vital organ: TRADITION. However, even if the girl: boy ratio should reach 1:1 (gasp) or even 3:1 (perish the thought), women will do their best to insure the continued life of Princeton ' s age- old institutions. Sports will always head Nassau Hall ' s list of priorities. But. use of the term jock will be for- bidden. Woodrow Wilson will not see his dream come true; the club caste system will continue to exist. In addi- tion, three exclusively female clubs will be established; ■Pussycat. Cheese. and Poison. The social life at these all-girl clubs will necessitate the importation of male objects from Rutgers. Sefon Hall, and Notre Dame. Academic rivalry and physical repulsivcness will prohi- bit the pursuance of relationships with male coeds. Hope- fully, women will continue such intellectually stimu- lating practices of nude Olympics in the WWS pool, decorating the trees with toilet paper, and burning a coed (male, this time) in effigy in Holder courtyard. Unfortu- nately, biological complications may prevent the ritual of urinating from Blair Tower when the female rugby play- ers hold their parlies. A note to the Texas alum who slopped his annual con- tribution of a half million when women were admitted: may Gloria Steinem and Susan Williams eternally haunt you. jill peters I wellspring of inspiration: the faculty interviews by art going When asked what they consider to be the University ' s greatest resource, many Princeton students will answer unhesitatingly, the fac- ulty. The answer reflects not only the high cali- ber of the faculty but also its accessibility to the undergraduate. Indeed, few students go through Princeton without forming both working and personal relationships with faculty members. The University carefully maintains a faculty- student ratio of about one to seven to ensure that contact is both extensive and significant. Princeton enjoys a single faculty which teaches both undergraduate and graduate students. It is not unusual, therefore, for first-year students to find themselves from their first days on campus in close contact with male and female scholars of national and international reputation. And because undergraduates make up three-fourths of the student body at Princeton, they demand a correspondingly large percentage of the fac- ulty ' s time and effort. One faculty interviewer recently explained the situation to an applicant for admission in no uncertain terms: Three- quarters of our reason for being here is you. Faculty members serve as advisers to, as well as teachers of, the undergraduate. Through the Board of Advisers, faculty from all departments assist underclass students in planning their aca- demic programs. Upperclass students enjoy an extended one-to-one relationship with a faculty adviser as they plan programs within their de- partments and undertake lengthly independent projects. The supreme example of this working relationship between adviser and student at Princeton is the senior thesis, which is at its best nothing less than a shared adventure in learning. It would certainly be a mistake, however, to assume that all faculty-student contact takes place in the classroom or office. Most faculty members live in the town of Princeton itself, and they are active participants in the social and cultural life of the campus. The residential colleges, as well as the eating clubs and other undergraduate dining facilities, have faculty fel- low programs which bring teachers and stu- dents together in informal situations. In the final analysis, it is their effect on the quality of the undergraduate education at Princeton, as outstanding teachers as well as scholars, which makes the faculty so crucially important to the student. r po y reynolds alien, economics daniel abse, m.d. feel more contented when I remember that I have two professions, and not one. Medicine is my lawful wife and literature my mis- tress. anton chekhov Dannie Abse describes himself as a profes- sional writer and dilettante physician. The Welsh poet, at Princeton for one year, began free-lance writing to help pay for his studies in London at King ' s College and Westminster Hos- pital. Abse ' s practice in medicine has hitherto offered real satisfaction; he has worked in a chest clinic, primarily for fliers and their fam- ilies. Stated he, I ' d rather do that than write re- views for the London Sunday Times or other journals. At Princeton Abse has conducted workshops in poetry and fiction and has advised creative writing majors. Abse has written more than six volumes of poetry, four novels, three full-length plays, and three one-act plays. All the plays have been pro- duced, although only one has been seen in this country. His first book of verse was published when he was still a medical student. Several of his poetry collections have since won awards in Britain. Abse ' s dual career has added even more color to the potpourri of fascinating people on the faculty at Princeton. Certainly not every Prince- ton professor can claim to have worked exten- sively in both science and the arts. i fiic hiiiold ontk.i •T(. vvi(..- off (In- froth of folsrhood (r.uii flir fodiiiiiii; lip  f inrhriddMl virliic. vv i(;;i fr(;.sli fro ii (lie sexless orj ii s of luoraUty ami n!(.

John maynard keynes Carlyle oner referred to professors of eco- nomics as the Respectable Professors of the Dismal Science. Perhaps the economics taught Carlyle wos a dismal science, but then he did not have Burton Malkiel as a professor. Malkiel is throughly respectable, but he makes econom- ics an exciting proposition. Recognized by the University as an outstanding teacher, he be- came a full professor only four years after join- ing the faculty. In 1969 (his fifth year) he was named Gordon S. Rentschler Memorial Profes- sor of Economics. His lecturing in freshman economics is renowned. This year has seen Malkiel become a best- selling author of sorts with his Random Walk Down Wall Street, widely acclaimed by critics. It is only fitting that in his book Malkiel should have paid tribute to his former home-he worked on Wall Street for two years before coming to Princeton Graduate School. In 1966, Professor Malkiel became the first di- rector of Princeton ' s Financial Research Center. a new operation for the purpose of research in the areas of financial analysis and financial markets. In 1969. Malkiel headed a faculty-student-ad- ministration committee investigating Prince- ton ' s investments in U.S. companies in South- ern Africa.

Criminal Investigator for a division of the Treasury Department, and U.S. Army lieutenant for two years. In June of 1969 Kornblum received the degree of Master of Public Administration from the Woodrow Wilson School. Currently he is lec- turing in addition to working towards a Ph.D. m the School. Kornblum has witnessed the influx of coeds and the concomitant rise in the number of prob- lem calls. Moreover, he has struggled through some of the political activism that preceded the present beer-and-books era. Some of us may even remember Kornblum as the skilled ama- teur photographer directing his men in snapping pictures of demonstrators at the famous Hickel speech of 1969. John turkevitch The whole art of teaching is only the art of awakening the natural curiosity of young minds for the purpose of satisfying it after- wards. anatote francs John Turkevitch combines teaching and re- search at Princeton and, in addition, serves as a consultant to numerous government agencies, such as the Atomic Energy Commission and the State Department. He is the Eugene Higgins Professor of Chemistry and has been on the Princeton faculty since 1936. What makes Professor Turkevitch truly ex- traordinary is his activities outside of the field of science: he also serves as chaplain to Ortho- dox students on campus and conducts Sunday morning Divine Liturgy. He was ordained a Rus- sian Orthodox priest in 1965. His father was Pri- mate of the Russian Orthodox Church in the U.S. Turkevitch has lectured all over the world and has served on numerous science and diplo- matic missions for the government. In 1959 he lectured for six weeks in Moscow on U.S. science to over forty thousand citizens, in- cluding Krushchev, Mikoyan, and Gromyko. In the summer of 1955 and again in 1958 he acted as adviser to the U.S. Delegation to the Confer- ence on Peaceful Uses of Atomic Energy at Ge- neva. He has also been a consultant to several foreign governments. During World War II Turkevitch taught Rus- sian and Russo-Turkish history at Princeton, in addition to chemistry. Professor Turkevitch has been a frequent speaker in the university community on the reli- gious implications of modern science. In the spring of 1966, he delivered the John Witherspoon Lectures on the topic, The Re- sponsibilities of a University Professor. kathryn huals I toll you folks, nil polUics is applesauce. will rogers Actually.

One of the few tenured women professors on campus, Kay Boals is also one of the more popu- lar politics lecturers. For the past two years she has taught a course in the politics of male-fe- male relations, a feminist course that attracts a lot of men. The course stemmed from a book Ms. Boals wrote on the same subject. What the book basically tries to do is to dis- cuss the politics of male-female relations in the context of the development of human con- sciousness. There is much evidence to suggest that the oppression of women by nien came at a fairly late stage in human history. What Kay Boals basically tries to do is to in- terest her students in the same type of study.

Just last spring Ziolkowski was awarded the $1000 James Russell Lowe Prize, by the Modern Language Association of America for his Fic- tional Transfigurat ion of esus. A three-man se- lection panel called it a handsome, intellectual exhibition, meticulous and energetic in its or- dering of diverse materials ....

He has taught at Yale and Columbia and. formerly from Alabama, has been at Princeton since 19B4. peter curtis hunncll The imifator is ci poor kind of creature.

President Bowen noted at the time that Bunnell ' s appointment ensured the type of teaching museum desired at Prince- ton. Bunnell ' s credentials as both a teacher and a scholar were well known. Also, he had had vast experience as administrator and curator at the Museum of Modern Art. Bunnell, an expert on photography, now both teaches courses in the history of photography and coordinates activity between the Museum and the Art and Archaeology Department. Bun- nell wants to involve in the museum more stu- dents as opposed to art majors alone. The Mu- seum should become a part of every student ' s experience. Diversity is another of Peter Bunnell ' s goals for the Museum: a con tinued diversity in the ex- hibitions. In the short time that he has been di- rector he has succeeded in this effort.

Charles h moore ' 31 Watergate, the energy crisis, and p.u, Through the ' 60 ' s it seemed that, just as an addict needs his fix, America needed a crisis. Civil rights early, Viet Nam late, with com- mingling of the two in middle to help get us through the years. Now, like a phoenix with two heads, two crises have arisen from the ashes of the Viet Nam conflict to occupy our time and thinking processes. They are Watergate and the Energy Crisis. A word or two on how they af- fected Princeton and undergraduate life styles is in order here. These two issues are taken together, but are not meant as a be-all, end-all, definitive state- ment on the amount or limits of political activ- ity on campus. The African Famine Relief, New Jersey state elections, coups d ' etat in Chile, the Innis-Shockley (nee Montagu) debate, ROTC and the Arab-Israeli War are other political is- sues which transcend Princeton in scope but touched the campus in some way. This article could not begin to catalogue and discuss all of these. Instead we shall try to supply some profound and trivial ramifications of the two is- sues mentioned in the title. We surely will not get to every detail, but will try to provide a framework to which you the reader can supply your own thoughts. Watergate is a catchphrase cliche-which covers so many charges of scandal, cover-up, il- legal activities, and wrongdoing in the Nixon Administration as to be almost unbelievable. Many people have started to separate the hap- penings into different divisions: the activities of the plumbers themselves, the tapes, the al- leged cover-up by so many high officials, the storm about Nixon ' s income tax, campaign ir- regularities; and, of course, completely sepa- rately considered is Vice President Agnew ' s res- ignation. Other peripheral issues which fanned the fires of impeachment discussion were so- called ITT and MILK deals, the alleged war crimes of secret bombing in Cambodia, and the alleged bribery of the judge in connection with the ElLsberg burglary case. All of the above was like a low fever in the collective Princeton undergraduate body. It was a sickness and subject of much discussion, but little was done to effect the impeachment or res- ignation of President Nixon. It was as if there was so much information bombarding students every day — charges, count ercharges, con- volutions of the testimony, court orders-that in order to preserve th(!ir sanity and get some work done, many had to quit reading and listen- inj to fViM-ything. Thry cithor hiul m;ulc up their minds or just read selectively because ot tiu ' lime constraint. Ihe low j rade fever was Irij-gered into hi h fever pitch bv the Saturday Night Massacre. On Saturday night, October 2()th. i ' resident Nixon ordered Special Prosecutor Archii)al(i Cox to resign because of Cox ' s persistence in subpoenaing tapes which Nixon felt he must keep because of Executive privileges, the sepa- ration of powers, and national security. At- torney General Elliot Richardson anil Deputy Attorney General William Ruckelshaus ' 55 refused to remove Cox because of promises made to the Senate Confirmation Committee as- suring the Prosecutor ' s independence, and they also resigned. Nixon was thus bereft of a Spe- cial Prosecutor and in contempt of Judge John Sirica ' s court. The reaction at Princeton was swift. On Sun- day. October 21st. the Ad-Hoc Committee for the Impeachment of the President was formed. Undergraduates, graduate students, and mem- bers of the Princeton community formed the groups which immediately began a postcard, telegram, and letter campaign directed at con- gressmen and urging impeachment. Tables were set up around the campus and town in the fol- lowing week by the Impeachment Committee. They were located outside Firestone, the dining halls, the Student Center, and Palmer Square where the public could write telegrams which the committee would relay to Washington. But the Committee was not the only manifes- tation of concern over Nixon ' s actions. On Sun- day night the Young Republicans Executive Committee met and drafted a letter calling for Nixon ' s resignation or impeachment. That de- mand remained in effect until the President agreed to release some of the tapes, at which point the Young Republicans issued another let- ter stating in part, But now it seems that the courts may be able to settle many issues, and in- stead of categorically stating that it would be in the best interests of the country that the Presi- dent resign, we now would say that if might be in the nation ' s best interests if he do so. And on the lighter side, the James Madison Humor- ous Debating Society held a debate on October 26th on the topic, Resolved: Nixon should have held on to the Cox. • The Ad-Hoc Committee did not stop with a telegram blitz. They organized, under Marcia August ' 77, a lobbying trip to Washington, D.C. which took place on November 8th, involving approximately 40 students. The make-up of the group cut across a wide political spectrum with people making the trip also belonging to some of the conservative groups on campus, in- cluding Young Americans for Freedom, Under- graduates for a Stable America, and the Young Republicans. The lobbying was done in a more traditional sense than in former protest days- no marches or demonstrations, but instead meetings with congressmen and their adminis- trative aids. As Doug Phillips ' 77, the press spokesman for the Committee, put it, There are good reasons to impeach President Nixon, but congressmen need to see strong public senti- ment as well. Our main reason for going to Washington was to show them some of that sentiment. Two other groups that got into the impeach- ment fray were the Council of the Princeton University Community and the Undergraduate Assembly (UGA). At the November 13th meet- ing of the CPUC a resolution calling for the President ' s impeachment was postponed indefi- nitely by a vote of 24-18. Proponents of the reso- lution felt, as quoted in the Daily Princetonian, that the council had authority to act under its charter because th(! all pervasive crisis affects all members of the university community and the university itself. The opposition did not think that it fell under the CPUC jurisdiction to proffer a resolution. The UGA had already con- sidered and passed the same resolution at their November 6th meeting, 27-0. Another effect of Watergate was that speak- ers coming to campus had something new to talk about, and some speakers, such as Fred Thompson, minority counsel for the Senate Wa- tergate Committee, came because of their knowledge of the matters. Allard Lowenstein and M. Stanton Evans debated impeachment (because of war crimes). Representative Paul McCloskey called for truth in government, Pat Paulsen satirized the President, and almost ev- CPUC to approve nominees, discuss Nixon ' s impeachment to supp ■ 0) etaty debate |7 oMie,NCeac vmenl iXoti ' Vac , f ent 1 McCloskey attacks deception, calls for truth in government rryoiii H-nl tln-ii ttn « ' ' i:t ' nts ' worth (iiicliidin this urili ' i) to throw in on the siihjrct.

Impeachment was hot. but then it died down as the spcM.tre of finals, p.ipers. and no heat became a reality. After fi- nals, there seemed to be a resurgt nce of interest in the idea of President Ford. As press spokes- man Phillips ' 77 said. This kind of activity comes in response to events rather than sponta- neously. It ' s heating up now (late January) be- cause of ten experts ' testimony that the tape erasures wert intentional. Unlike Watergate, which a student could ig- nore if he managed not to read, listen, or talk to anyone else, the Energy Crisis affected each Princetonian through the forced shutdown and attendant difficulties, if not in any other way. Some people thought that Watergate and the threat of impeachment had contributed to the energy shortage by tying President Nixon ' s hands at a time when decisive action was needed. Others thought it was just the general ineptitude of a government in handling any- thing of importance. Still others thought that oil company collusion had contributed to the short- age: there was no crisis, just a scheme to make extra profits. Others thought it was a simple case of unquenchable demand exceeding exist- ing supplies. Finally many thought of reasons both too numerous and too unprintable to be mentioned here. Whatever views or com- binations of views were right, Princeton Univer- sity suffered an oil shortage which deeply af- fected life on the campus. The watchwords on the energy front nation- ally were confusion and uncertainty. And it was this uncertainty about the availability of oil that was the reason for the biggest effect the Energy Crisis had on the lives of Princetonians-the en- forced two-week shutdown, postponement of exams, and curtailment of activities that marked the winter months of academic year 1973-74. The shutdown snuck up on most of us through a mass of bewildering and con- tradictory reports from the government. th( ' oil companies, the administration of the University and various boards and groups meeting to dis- cuss the situation. The first hint of any problem came in late October when the University insti- tuted a mild (comparatively) conservation pro- C gram of turning off excess lights, avoiding over- heating, and going down to a basic temperature level of 68 degrees. The University also began developing plans to cope with more serious aspects of the situ- ation such as rationing and or shortages. This became more important as the national energy shortage became more acute and confused and as November wore on. On November 14th a new. rigorous conservation program was estab- lished by President Bowen and the adminis- trators concerned with energy throughout the University-but it seemed, as the events began to move more quickly in the following weeks, that as soon as a set of guidelines went into ef- fect, they were outdated by new fast-moving events. The next day came the first inkling that the Universitv might close, and the possibility was termed remote by Dean Neil Rudenstine. But a worst case scenario had to be accounted for and soon contingency plans were being drawn up affecting such things as how long to close, which buildings to close, which merited staying open, whether to postpone any part of the academic schedule, where to house those students who wished to stay on campus during break, how to choose those students who could come back early if postponement occurred, and myriad other items that must be dealt with when long-range plans are disrupted. On November 20th a more stringent energy conservation program was introduced. Dormi- tory temperatures were set at 68 degrees with a six-hour setback each night to 60 degrees, Fire- stone Library was to be kept at 65 degrees at all times. Electric consumption was to be reduced. The decision to close the University was ar- gued and hammered out by University adminis- trators in conjunction with student representa- tion and CPUC representation over late November and early December. As outlin(!d by Paul Firstenberg, financial vice-president of the University, there were many factors which went into the decision to close. First and perhaps most important was the allocation system the government was planning to set up. Under it heavy fuel oil No. 6, which the University was using, would be allocated to consumers at a cer- University to shut down until Jan. 21; fuel crunch delays final examinations ' ' ' ' ' ' •d rate, , rise to Energy shortage may force pj, gy Qf - Princeton to close in winter % « « . a « • ( e.. .

There had been modes! inler- ruption in ' 72- ' 7 , but there looked to be more piMvasive interruption in 1974. Since aUocation guidebne.s did not take into account total fuel consumption, fuel oil would have provideil for only .d)out 50% of th( UniviMsity ' s nei ' ds. Fur- ther, it was unclear in December whether th(! University ' s supplier woul d be able to provide sufficientOil to operate the University. The gov- ernment was expecting severe shortages and the administrators, in Mr. Firstenberg ' s view, had to work from a pessimistic viewpoint, so the shut- down came bec.iuse of a need to conserve fuel- and in order to demonstrate to the government that Princeton was doing everything possible to conserve fuel, to make a case for our share of fuel. The outcome of this was threefold. First. there was a 33% energy saving in December 1973 over December 1972 throughout the University. This was a significant increase over the 15 to 20% conservation predicted and came about be- cause of the shutdown and because of mild weather. Second, the University received an in- terim fuel allocation in early January from the government to continue operations, thereby keeping the postponement and disruption of the academic schedule to the minimum of two weeks. And lastly, the government changed its thinking on allocation from a reliance on histor- ical bases to one of temperature reductions. But this is not the first time Princeton has been faced with a threatened shutdown due to the unavailability of fuel. In January of 1918. during World War I, there was shortage of coal due to the Great War that had hauntingly sim- ilar characteristics to this year ' s imbroglio. On January 5. 1918, The Doily Pr m:vAonkin head- lined University Coal Situation by No Means Serious, which then as now meant there was a shortage on the way. On January 15, 1918, the Prince reported that the University had coal for several days, and the situation would be stable unless there was a severe snowfall, which sounds like the weather factor still present in today ' s energy equation. On January 18, 1918, a fuel edict was issued by President Wilson se- verely curtailing consumption throughout the nation. But Princeton was exempted from it. said President Hibben. because the Flying School was located here. Then as now govern- ment contracts and contacts were a lifesaver to till- University.

For one thing, the change in the aca- demic calendar necessitated the cancelling of some athletic events and put others in direct conflict with fall term final examinations. Also, the athletes who came back to practice and par- ticipate in those events still held, by necessity were housed in Caldwell Field House, just as other students who came back during the shut- down were housed in the Princeton Inn or pro- fessors ' and the adjacent community ' s homes. The shortage changed the travel habits of many students who went home for the holidays. Many who had cars decided to leave them here and not chance trying to get gas. Some rode the train for the first time. And the student discount for airplane travel, a fond memory even for soph- omores, was rapidly going the way of the dino- saur as airlines cut down marginal flights to save fuel and save themselves money as well. The Energy Crisis touched our lives in many small ways, too. The famed Princeton Road Trip was in danger of extinction because of the gas shortage, although the betting was that this would b(! one of the last things to go. Phone bills were almost non-existenl for tht; month of Janu- ary. Due dates for many papers and other work were extended. The Bicker schedule was thrown for a loop and had to be shortened. Uni- versity contract holders received a rebate from DFS for meals missed because of the shutdown. Commons stayed open during intercession, but minus sufficient clean-up crew, provoking grumbling from those who had to fight the lines. Speakers had another topic to lecture about, and the economist Milton Friedman started it off with a bang at his December 5th lecture to a packed McCosh 50. Finally, this writer has a pet theory that, because of the extra long layoff and the psychological implications accompanying it, undergraduate grades will have been signifi- cantly affected-either higher or lower. This theory awaits the attention of an enterprising Princetonian in search of a paper topic. But the Energy Crisis did, could, and prob- ably will affect the University and thus the un- dergraduates in a more fundamental way- through the pocketbook. An immediate result of the Energy Crisis was observed on the Univer- sity ' s stock portfolio. Many University members held stocks-including General Motors and Xerox— which fell in value because their worth was seen as tightly tied to amounts of energy. Food is another energy-intensive commodity whose price showed no signs of slackening. Scarce gas and oil are needed to dry grain, transport it, make fertilizer, and many other necessary jobs in the agriculture industry. If fuel goes up in price it could affect the whole University budget through large price increases in food, heating, and other sectors seemingly unrelated to the University. Which brings us to the larger picture of the Energy Crisis, beyond just living with the heat lowered and staying home two extra weeks. The country, at this writing, could go into a curious recession with more unemployment AND in- flation, and less growth. In December the big question was whether rationing was necessary. In January whether the Energy Crisis was real. In February whether there would be a recession and whether the truckers in their pivotal posi- tion as conveyors of a majority of the neces- sities of life for a majority of Americans would provide the catalyst for the recession. But the national economy also had significance for Princeton. Stocks have already been mentioned, but the effect of uncertainty on the (H:onomy is hard to factor and may affect Princeton nega- tively. And there is always the possibility that Annual Giving will fall off in economically Iroubhul times. Also government contracts, a som(!times lifeblood of Princeton, do not flow as quickly in uncertain periods. Weekly Bulletin Wjmn Thur«l y 24 Jan Frid«y25J«n Sturd«y2CJ«n 8undT27J«n What is Princeton doing about the Energy Crisis? The answer to that takes us to Nassau Hall, to the Physical Plant, to the Engineering Quadrangle, to Forrestal Campus and back again. Vice-President Firstenberg explained that from a financial perspective Princeton can make the necessary adjustments to projected in- creases in costs. The planned budget for next year expects increases in costs-but it remains to be seen whether the budget will cover them all. Mr. Firstenberg does not see the effects of the crisis becoming unmanageable-but he can- not say with certainty. In the physical end, the University is planning a number of capital ex- penditures to conserve fuel that were not war- ranted before the price of fuel jumped. Now the cost of these improvements are justified by the savings that will occur. They include additional insulation, added temperature control mecha- nisms to monitor heat use more closely, and ad- ditional oil storage facilities. Also being consid- ered is a permanent change in the calendar so that the University operates least when fuel use is the greatest. These are all short-term solutions to specific local Princeton problems. At the Engineering Quad, Environmental Center, and Forrestal campus, how(!ver, research is being conducted on short-term, intermediate-term, and long-term solutions to the Energy Crisis. On the short-term side, there has been much research done in the area of internal combustion engines, including the Wankel. Intermediately, there has been ex- ploration of solar, wind and geothermal energy in many different departments. Finally, for a long-term solution to our energy needs, Prince- ton is the leader in development of the breeder reactor that, when perfected, will make more fuel than it burns. The Chemical En- gineering Department is doing research on coal gassification; and use of the laser beam as a means of stimulating and modifying com- bustion is also being looked at. Returning to Nassau Hall brings us up agains t the University ' s plans for the long-term devel- opment and investment opportunities of the Forrestal area as a community with homes, apartments, light indust ' -v, hotels, and other marks of a well-planned modern development. It would seem that the Energy Crisis would af- fect this planned development deeply; it is far from New York City in these days of gasoline short supply. Also to develop essentially a free- standing new community on Route 1 is an en- ergy intensive project. Vice President First- enberg agrees with this in part, saying that the present uncertainty is not a plus when trying to get people to make changes; people may want to stay closer to the cities. But he feels that the concept of Forrestal is sound. It ' s next to the Penn Central Railroad, it will be big enough that if mass transport develops it will serve Forres- tal, and he believes better alternatives will be developed to alleviate the prestmt strained fuel situ.ition. Indeed, he has cuniidence that over the long term the basic trend of movement into this area may be slowed, but not basically altered. Any svv ' eeping generalities used to end this ar- ticle would be both redundant and superfluous. But there are three ideas that come from the above that need everyone ' s thought and reflec- tion. First is the fact that we have seen the diffi- culties involved in going from a free market sys- tem allocating fairly plentiful resources, to government allocation of comparatively scarce resources, although some would say the govern- ment has not gone far enough in allocation and rationing. Tied to this is the need for devel- opment of more energy resources, whatever they may be. Second, we have seen how a crisis mentality ' can develop. Watergate, the Energy Crisis, hope for the good old days. But the good old days had their crises too. Is it worse now or are we just more conscious of it? And lastlv, is the Energy Crisis almost a self-ful- filling prophecy? Does the talk of shortage and recession cause it? Or is this just a plot cooked up by the oil companies to increase profits? These questions and their answers will form the basis of how we handle tomorrow ' s problems. luki! roth february 1974 Rhodes Scholarships INFORMATION FOR CANDIDATES 19 7 3 , . hrld in nil 9l«le in December. 1973.

Wesleyan University. Middletown, Conn, Although Princeton did not make a great showfing in football and basketball in ' 73-74, Old Nassau outdid itself in the Rhodes Schol- arship. Three Princeton men, Thomas A. Bar- ron, H. Randolph Weinberg, and Nicholas W. Allard were awarded Rhodes Scholarships. This was Princeton ' s best showing since 1970. The Rhodes Scholarship was established by Cecil Rhodes in his will at the beginning of the twentieth century. The fund was established to give men from (at that time) the British Empire an opportunity to pursue their studies at Oxford University. Today men who are citizens of the British Commonwealth or the United States are eligible for the scholarship. Rhodes believed firmly in the theory of the white man ' s bur- den and in Great Britain ' s colonial policy. His views are summed up in his witticism British Dominion from the Cape to Cairo. His opin- ions about Great Britain ' s role are reflected in the objectives he mentions for founding the scholarship. 1. Colonidl. I consider that the education of young colonists at one of the universities in the United Kingdom is of great advantage to them for giving breadth to their views, for their instruction in life and manners, and for instilling into their minds the ad- vantage to the colonies as well as to the United Kingdom of the retention of the unity of the empire. 2. United States. I also desire to encourage and foster an appreciation of the advan- tages which I implicitly believe will result from the union of the English-speaking people throughout the world . . . Originally German males were also eligible for the scholarship. With World War I, Ger- mans lost their eligibility. After World War I, they were reinstated, but they lost their status with the outbreak of World War II. They never regained their eligibility. Rhodes was very specific about the qualities he was seeking in the beneficiaries of his phi- lanthropy. He states the following guidelines: My desire being that the students who shall be elected to the scholarship shall not be merely bookworms, I direct that in the elec- tion of a student to a scholarship, regard shall be had to (1) his literary and scholastic achievements; (2) his fondness for and sue- academic touchdowns: the 1973 rhodes scholars cess in manly outdoor sports ... (3) his qualities of manhood, truth, courage, devo- tion to duty, sympathy for and protection of the weak, kindliness, unselfishness and fellowship: and (4) his exhibition during school days of moral force of character and of instincts to lead and to take an interest in his schoolmates, for those latter attributes will be likely in after life to guide him to es- teem the performance of public duties as his highest aim. It is doubtless that Rhodes was one of the more outstanding male chauvinists of modern times. Not only are all his specifications manly attributes, but in addition, women are not eligible for the scholarship. It is unlikely that women ' s lib will be able to bring down this bastion of male chauvinism because of the sa- credness of the will in Great Britain. Aside from the sexual barrier, there are no re- strictions with respect to race, creed, or color. The practice of non-discrimination is pre- scribed in the will and has been executed in practice. The selection process of Rhodes scholars is a long and arduous one. The candidate (always, with few exceptions, someone who has at- tended at least two years of a recognized college or university) makes application to a state (usu- ally his home state) committee. Committee members are chosen by the eight trustees of the scholarship; former Rhodes scholars sometimes sit in on the committee but never preside over it. The state committee weeds out all less-than- outstanding applicants. The remaining men have letters of recommendation (five to eight) sent and are interviewed by the state com- mittee. Perhaps twenty candidates per state make it this far. About five of these applicants are selected for the regional interview. (There are six geographic regions in the United States.) In the average applicant of the original stages of the selection process, it is conceivable that Rhodes himself might have been disappointed. His concept of manly outdoor sports has all but vanished. The Empire for which he planned is virtually non-existent. But there are still young men— and, in particular, three such among Princeton ' s class of ' 74— who measure up to Rhodes ' s stiff qualifications and who are able to pursue their education at one of the world ' s leading universities. Barron, an independent major in history and politics, plans to work with a federal agency or in an urban school. He has worked with Ralph Nader, and his efforts have thus far culminated in Handbook for Citizens: How to Make Con- gress Work, which will be published in the spring of 1974. Allard, a Woodrow Wilson School major, was president of the senior class. He plans to enter law school after his two years at Oxford and, as of now, hopes for a career in criminal law. Weinberg, majoring in the History and Philos- ophy of Science, is one of the few science people to study in the Rhodes program. His thesis topic is American Reaction to Acu- puncture. He plans to examine the British sys- tem of socialized medicine and to compare it to the American system. Allard and Barr on plan to follow an honors program in politics, philosophy, and economics. Weinberg will study the history of medicine. They join the; group of over one hundred and twenty Princeton Rhodes scholars including Wilder Penfield ' 13. John Marshall Harlan ' 20, litifi K John B.

Although, as yet, there has never been a United States President who was a Rhodes win- ner, there have been statesmen and politicians who received this honor.

None of these, regrettably, can be cited as part of the Princeton alumni mailing list, but perhaps Princeton ' s Rhodes Scholarship win- ners of 1974 may likewise lay claim to future fame on the national political front or elsewhere.

Topics are chosen in consultation with super- visors, and in most cases they reflect individual interests and aptitudes. Somehow the propagandistic inhumanity of these words fails to convey the academic nausea which accompanies the surmounting of that intellectual Matterhorn, the senior thesis. Although the performance of this unavoidable chore proves odious to many, my un- derclass paranoia was eased when I witnessed the re- freshing enthusiasm with which some seniors view their work. It bocame necessary for me to interview Peter Chavkin and George Kryder twice, as I was so overwhelmed the first time that I neglected to take any notes. A task force for juniors in the Woodrow Wilson School ignited their concern for the civil rights of mental patients. In order to gain insight into the problem. Peter and George com- mitted themselves to the Trenton Psychiatric Hospital for three days. Their horrific experience in the hospital and sub- sequent research uncovered a number of alleged abridge- ments of the patients ' civil rights. For example, one hun- dred fifty patients holding jobs were paid twenty-five cents per day. in flagrant violation of the Federal Min- imum Wage Law. Individuals were deprived of due pro- cess safeguards, often subjected to perfunctory hearings and prevented from obtaining legal counsel. Individ- ualized treatment was lacking and patients received mere custodial care Persons were often denied the rights to communication and worship. Frequently, patients were administered overdoses of drugs. In addition to these ille- gal practices, the staffing and facilities at TPH were in- adequate, and an oppressive atmosphere detrimental to an individual ' s condition permeated. Peter and George believe that the state legislature has abdicated its responsibility by refusing to allocate suf- ficient funds to meet the needs of New Jersey ' s nine thou- sand mental patients. Therefore, it is necessary to turn to the law to insure a constitutional right to treatment and rehabilitation. With the assistance of Mercer County Le- gal Aid Society, they are bringing suit against TPH by cit- ing the cases of several patient plaintiffs. The two plan to testify at hearings to promote passage of a new law guar- anteeing the civil rights of the mentally ill. 1 contracted George ' s contagious fervor as he reflected upon his Marat Sadistic experience. Being suddenly thrust into an impersonal dormitory situation with people you didn ' t chose to meet, bombarded by the noise, stench, and filth, deprived of identity and dignity, you re- alize what it is to be a forgotten citizen. But. at least we knew we were going to get nut. For the other thousands of patients confined in that warehouse of humanity, there is little hope for the future. We left there determined to give them that hope. Mimi Danly ' s ardor for American literature, artistic tal- ent, and incredible animation combined to form a force unvanquishable by the idiosyncrasies of Nassau Hall, and after an unbelievable amount of wrangling, an inde- pendent major emerged unscathed. For her thesis, Mimi created an almanac calendar based on the writing of Henry David Thoreau. After reading his journals, she chose selections referring to his conceptions about time. seasons, and stages of life, and then interpreted them vi- sually. Using recurring symbols in Thoreau ' s writing, such as the tortoise, circle, and scythe, Mimi developed her own iconography. Illustrations were done in brown ink, pastels, and water color, and the almanac calendar part was hand-lettered in brown ink. I was amazed to learn that Mimi had had no formal art training. When 1 was little, she explained, I was pretty much a loner. To amuse myself 1 used to spend hours copying illustrations from books. I know most artists would say that copying is not the right way to learn to draw, but it worked for me, and eventually I developed my own style. Evidently the wrong way was the right way in this particular instance; a publisher expressed in- terest in putting the almanac into print even before it was finished. Contrary to popular belief, Doug West does function in a capacity other than recording secretary of the profun- dities spewed forth by Princeton ' s academic hierarchy. He also has a fetish for Cheeze Doodles, and majors in math. Whim it was time to choose a thesis topic, he con- cluded that the only worthwhile mathematical goal in life was to write a computer program for backgammon. To write a program for the Parcheesi-like game, Doug established possible positions of the discs on the board, and determined what the best consecutive moves would i be. Evaluation of various strategies took into consid- eration the element of chance, which accompanies the dice rolling, and the possible mistakes an opponent might make. When Doug first met with backgammon as a junior in high school, he didn ' t realize that in subsequent years he was to become obsessed by the game, after being exposed to the fanatics of Colonial Club. Thanks to Doug ' s work, if a backgammon addict has an uncontrollable craving, but cannot find an individual with whom to play, all he has to do is seek out a nearby computer. When classics major Jeff Holman finished his semester of practice teaching, he was dissatisfied with the results he had obtained. Rather than getting into the lewd epi- grams of some obscure Roman poet, he decided to re- search certain problems and methods accompanying the pedagogy of Latin. One basic problem Jeff encountered was in determin- ing the pace at which the class should be run. He found it impossible to progress slowly enough to facilitate learn- ing by the average student without boring the brighter one. He believed that the answer lay in allowing pupils to advance at their own rate. Having been a zealous defender of the study of Latin in my youth, I winced when Jeff brought up an extremely sore topic. The basic problem facing Latin teachers. he sighed, is putting life into a language which is quite of- ten viewed as being dead. He then opened his wallet, and removed a frayed clipping by Sydney Harris which presented a justification of Latin learning I hadn ' t heard before. Harris argues that the decrease in the study and use of Latin has resulted in a more violent society. The subsequent loss of vocabulary has caused a lack of un- derstanding, justice, and honesty. As people have become less verbally oriented, they find expression in other, more aggressive; ways. I began to think that this theory was credibh;. until I saw Jeff about a week after his interview. He was car- rying a new squash racket ... to replace the one he had smashed in a violent expression of frustration. Upon meeting Peter Bhinchard. Peggy Burchenal, Sue Muenzer. and Bob Peck. I was awestruck at the prospect of being face-to-face with superhumans who had success- fully memorized the 987,452.681 slides from the Art 102 lectures. The four art history majors were participants in the Program 111 plan of concentration. The program calls for the organization of an exhibit for the art museum, and the preparation of an accompanying catalogue. This year ' s exhibit showed particular works which other artists later copied in a different medium, juxtapos- ing two methods of artistically treating the .same subject permitted the spectator to observe the different effects conveyed by varied media, and to understand the artist ' s purpose in making the copy. Our goal was to make the exhibit interesting as well as instructive, Bob commented. The majority of the art objects belong to the university art museum, although some were obtained from outside sources. The works covered a span from 1400 to the present, and included creations of Rubens and Delacroix. Each student prepared five or six entries, and workiul with the museum staff to display the selections attrac- tively. The four worked on the catalogue jointly, and may have it published. After I had interviewed these people, art history looked more appealing as a major, as did the prospect of sharing thesis burdens and joys with three others. For most of us, going back to the old high school can be a rt al drag; however, for Rich Rampell, a visit to his alma mater resulted in the revelation of the perfect thesis topic. The occasion of Rich ' s return was his brother ' s graduation, and the speaker giving the commencement address was none other than that shining example of a Princeton alumnus in action, Ralph Nader. Rich later got to talking with Ralph, and the following summer worked for him on the Congressional Project. At that Wmv. Nader expressed an interest in doing a thorough investigation of that fear-inducing power, second only to the Almighty in ability to control men ' s lives. Educational Testing Ser- vice. Rich told Ralph that he ' d give him a hand, and ex- amined the economic aspects of ETS for his thesis in the economics department. The basis for Rich ' s investigation is the fact that ETS produces tests for everything, and maintains monopo- listic control over the market. It is the greatest regulator of occupations in the country. After it establishes that an individual has a low I.Q., that person is consequently prevented from ever acquiring material wealth and the accompanying status. A real question exists concerning the validity of such tests. In addition, this non-profit or- ganization grosses over one-and-a-half million dollars pt r year. Rich hopes to work with others in the investigation of the political, psychological, sociological, and historical aspects of ETS. He will then submit the study for Nader ' s perusal. I was delighted to learn that someone besides myself felt that he had been burnt by ETS: Rich informed me that Ralph received a 494 on his LSAT ' s. Luckily for him, he went to school at a time when Harvard Law accepted most Princeton graduates. Those were the days . .

A frustrated fe- male stated that she thoroughly enjoyed making discov- eries through her research, hut found the mechanics of {grinding out drafts extremely distasteful. A psych major agreed, .ind believed that spending the lime taking courses would have lieen more worthwhile. But. the most vehement reaction to the qutistion camt; from a Woodrow Wilson School male: UNDKR NO CIR- CUMSTANCES should a thesis be required! But then, of course. I don ' t believe that anything in life should be retpiired. jill peters i9 1 the daily princetonian life: hoell e rohJer ' 77 Long after Old Nassau ceased to toll the morning hour, the final eighth chime continued to reverberate in the heavy head of Hoell E. Rohler ' 77. His first glimpse of irritating sunlight reminded him of having overindulged in two beers the night before. To rally was imperative, for he suddenly remembered that today was fi- nally the long-awaited day when his home- town-honey would arrive on campus. If the anticipation of the weekend wasn ' t suf- ficient to arouse him, the eighty-nine steps from his room in Holder Tower to the bathroom cer- tainly were. A friendly slap on the back from Mike McCaffery, the dorm laundry representa- tive, caught Hoell with a mouthful of tooth- paste, which he unobligingly swallowed. Mike was off to de-lint the machines, sweep the floor and replenish the soap. Hoell E. suddenly heard a loud Hey female and roaring laughter when McCaffery caught a sleepy-eyed coed off guard coming from the bathroom. Hoell chuckled and gathered up his belongings. Grudgingly he re- climbed those tower stairs, dressed, and was off to breakfast before the usual onslaught of late Saturday morning arrivals. At the check-in desk Hoell handed his card to Master Bader, who tried to conceal his amusement toward the typi- cally horrible meal card portrait. Sheepishly he grabbed a tray and headed for the serving line, only to encounter the server asleep— according to Norm ' s tradition. With visions of Misters Right and Wrong, his fellow server jolted him with the first chorus of Do it the Commons Way. As Hoell sat down in Madison Hall, an ob- noxiously loud tee-shirt across the table beck- oned for his attention. To Hoell E. Rohler ' s in- quiry as to how this monstrosity was procured, the student replied, From the student T shirt Agency, of course, and from none other than Jeff Rice, notorious manager. He ' s quite the salesman, but be care- ful he doesn ' t sell you a raw deal. Be on your guard when he twists the handlebars of his mustache, for he ' s likely to pull a 50% mark-up. Look at this tee-shirt! What a bargain! Didn ' t pull the wool over my eyes— only $5.00 for this. Well, Hoell E. would have to wait for his tee- shirt. This morning he had to drag himself over to the C level stacks at the library in order to de- t)t( an hour or so to his job as a rrsoarch assis- tant. Professor Cohen had asked him to h)(;ale seeminj ly five miUon books over th(! next vvec k. Owinj to his familiarity with Firestone ' s unique and often irritating eatah)j4uinj system, Hoell anticipated a nn orch ' .d involved with findinj just the first few on the list. But. maybe it would be worth it in the end. for that cute girl would be working at the circulation desk, he remem- bered. Even though he was pretty heavy with his hometown girlfriend, he was also a Princ(?- ton male— and no Princeton mah;. no matter how muc;h in love, shut his eyes to any potential for romance, or at least for a good time. An hour later and with fourteen books lo- cated, Hoell now waited in line to have his knapsack checked on his way out of the library; he glanced at his watch. An hour and twenty minutes remained before his girlfriend ' s train was due in-fortunately enough time to order his Princeton ring. If he chose it today, it should definitely be in before Christmas, and what could be a more romantic present for his honey than his college signet ring? So. Hoell headed next for the U-Store.

In his haste Jim didn ' t let poor Paul behind the counter get even a word in edgewise. Hoell was interested and followed this rather knowledgeable young man out of the U-Store where they just happened to find a student ring table set up. Funny thing about that-Jim was the manager of the Student Ring Agency. Fol- lowing Jim ' s sales pitch, Hoell filled out the forms and. as he turned away, caught the part- ing lines. Please, if you have a friend who ' s interested. let us know. We ' ll give him a ring ' — oh sorry, I mean a phone call. He clnickicd-soiiic slogans .iic c. itchy, others iiit(!lleclual, but this was just a lousy pun. Again Hoell (:heck(!d Ihe time; and simulta- n(!()usly heard thi; familiar snort of the PJ B. He i.icckI down to the station to find his girlfrifmd .itt(!mpting to lug an enormous suitcase; off the; train. In anguish he thought of the forty pounds he would have to carry up to Holder, but. then again, that would impress h(T. She could svv how strong he was. All their anticipation and the; long trek from Ihe train station fostered a healthy app(!tite in each of them. Consequently, their succeeding whirlwind tour of campus quickly led them through the main door of the Student Center, beyond the aroma of hamburgers and frimch fries outside. At a tabh; just past Ihe door, Car- rie, the checker, had a difficult time concealing a snicker as she checked Hoell ' s credit rating, and then the star-crossed lovers descended into the beehive of activity below. Having grabbed two trays, the couple encountered Steve Peters hurriedly changing Yummy Beef Stew to Scrumptious Chop Suey on the menu board as he grumblcjd about how it should have been done the night before. Then, over by the grill. Hoell caught sight of the Fabulous French Brother without the moustache, that really neat sophomore he had met Freshman Week. Hi. J(!ff. he said, trying to make a good impression. The response to his salutation, however, came from across the room, downstairs. There, before going off duty, the real Jeff was writing in the log book some nasty comment about his brother; he knew Mike would not neglect to re- taliate with some equally biting critique within a few hours, at the end of his shift. At this point. Hoell was pretty confused and tried to hide his embarrassment by hurrying with his girlfriend into the cashier ' s line. By now. however, it was quite backed up as Robin, the cashier, was ar- guing with an irate student customer about the price of yogurt. Passively listening to this altercation was Manager Luscious Linda, slouched opposite the first r(!gister struggling to remain awake. The sup(!r all-manager close-out of the night before had lasted until 3 a.m. and had definitely been too much for her, even though Roy had given the hands of the clock a nudge worth at least fif- t(!en minutes. The problem must have been that they had lacked Marvelous Mary Ellen ' s magic motivating potions. No matter, at this moment fellow manager Andy Nice Guy entered, wearing his indestructible smile. Their ensuing conversation concerned the prize awarded for the most ingenious Student Center tee-shirt de- sign—a date with the manager of the winner ' s choice— and Linda ' s disappointment at not hav- ing been chosen to be that date. Since the win- ner was a guy, and Linda the only female man- ager, she had reason to be offended. But in response to Linda ' s lament, Andy provided only a compassionate ear and a reassuring, Don ' t worry, Linda, you ' re still OK in my book. Their conversation was interrupted, however, by the entrance of both Mr. Mohr and Dick Traeglei . It wasn ' t long, though, before the attention of all was distracted by gales of laughter coming from the kitchen and from behind the grill; Chuck had just spent some enchanting moments locked up with the organic garbage in the eleva- tor, much to the amusement of the entire crew. Hoell and his girlfriend moved on past the condinKMil stand to seat themselves at a small table. There they savored their cheeseburg(!rs and fries amidst the melodious sounds of piped- in radio music. The minutes whipped past until they discovered they were neuirly late for the; P- rade. Thciy mov(;d outside, and hr. sounds of the tuba and the clash of (:ynil)iils greeted their ears. A mass of orange and black immediately en- veloped the couple, and they were dragged by the crowds down Washington Road. Hoell saw the souvenir man and fancied that his girl ' s at- tention was also engaged thus. They wiggled their way out of the crowd and were hailed by Larney. I have just the thing for you and the lady— a hat to keep the ears warm. You can never tell about Princeton weather— 60° can drop to 45° in a blink. Ah, of course a tiger for a mascot . . . What ' s that, you don ' t like tigers? Well, here ' s a tiger cub and, what do you say, he ' s got no teeth. Oh, but wait, you can ' t leave without a banner! And of course they didn ' t. Completely weighed down by this portable Princeton spirit, they made their way to the ivy- covered walls of the stadium. Meanwhile, the gate-men and -women had taken their posts and had completed their wrist exercises in preparation for the initial onslaught of spectators. Most of them were wondering what was in store for the Tigers that day, but one pretty coed was attempting to figure out the purpose of the trash can that one guy casually carried through the gate. Mary Lynn really be- gan to wonder when bottles began clanking in- side the selfsame trash can, but she figured that, of course, the bottles must belong to the refresh- ment agency. Hoell E. Rohler reached the stadium entrance and stood back while a crowd of little boys stormed the gate first; then Hoell handed his tickets to Mary Lynn and moved through. At this point the pair was accosted by Ted Judd, who pulled some fast ones and before long made them the owners of two Swiss steak hoagies. Though the smell might have been rather penetrating and the small quantity of steak rather difficult to taste, they still had a nice supplement for their lunch. Efficient ush- ers then directed them with index fingers to their seats where they had the fortune of getting a bird ' s eye view of the field from the second row from the top. Of course, they might find it difficult to read the numbers on the team ' s shirts, but they had th(;ir programs to consult. The first half en(i(;d on a slightly disappoint- ing note: zero yards rushing and a fumble on our own one-yard line, but all could be reme- died by some coffee. Hoell left his seat only to be greeted by disastrously immense crowds at the refreshment stand. Meanwhile, the green re- freshment truck was flying back and forth, with people swinging on and off in an amazing dis- play of acrobatics. Believe it or not, that truck never seemed to stop but, to the contrary, flew backwards even faster than it ever went for- wards as Gus dashed madly between Wilcox and the booths. Yet, Gus had decided that the job warranted all the hassle, especially when the time came to share the wealth. Hoell, on the other hand, decided that the products of that job were not worth the wait and headed back up to his seat. Here he was stopped by Mark the usher. Without a stub Hoell couldn ' t get back into the game. Such a predicament— but he then went to another gate, indicated that the tenth man back was holding his stub, and darted in quickly. He just missed the splat of a w.iirr h.illdon .is il llrw 1) liis lie, id. Init w.is consolcil by the thought th.il ijidcIois would take care of those Trcnlon Slat( l)oys. The garni ' began again after what had been a great half-time show by the P.U. Band. The eon- tost was moving ah)ng smoothly. Ho(dl was really getting into watching th(! acrobatics of the cheerleaders when a shout went up. The Ti- gers hail made a touchdown! With the score at 6-7, the team was fighting hard and was going to bo victorious. Now one and a half minutes re- mained in the third quarter. Hoell sat back and rolaxod when suddenly-splat-the friendly re- freshment girl. Jane Kennoy, interrupted him. Turning on her powers of persuasion, Jane proved conclusively for the couple that their hunger was unbearable, and a moment later they found themselves with two hot dogs apiece. The hot dogs and a hard-fought fourth quarter ended the game, and Hoell. proud of his school and caught up in a mob of happy stu- dents and alumni, followed the band back up campus. Hoell ' s efforts to keep his girlfriend well fed and therefore impressed had boosted hot dog. hoagie, and Coke sales to record highs, yet had simultaneously brought both himself and his girlfriend to the verge of nausea. Whether or not to skip dinner was no decision, but by nine o ' clock they were both comfortable enough to look for some good dancing and partying on Prospect Avenue. Unfortunately for Hoell, the bouncers along the street didn ' t have much pity for freshman males. The Pub. therefore, was Hoell and his honey ' s next destination. As they waited on the corner of Washington Road for the traffic to pass, they were proposi- tioned by weenie-man Bill Exley. Want to buy some of the best meat on campus? he offered. Looks like you could use it. he then added in a whisper for Hoell ' s benefit as he appraised his girlfriend. Meanwhile, the pungent aroma of weenies and sauerkraut was wafting from Bill ' s bell-laden and umbrella-ed cart. As Hoell was turning to Bill in order to refuse his offer tact- fully, there came a sudden loud sigh and thump. Hoell flashed around to find his girlfriend un- conscious on the sidewalk-a victim of sauer- kraut fumes. A sprinkle of Bill ' s beer revived but it was now (•.crtaiiily tinir to ni(i r on. Upon .iniviil .it (lli.inccllor Clrrcn, Hocll .iiul his honey were jircftrd .il lh( iloor l)y none olhiT than Slmlcnt Pub Manager Diuico Pcr- vrrlo and his So(:r(M C orvix, chul in trench coats iind hairy legs. What better pUice than the Pub entrance for getting a litth ' more public ( - posure? Once through the iloor .ind a l)arrag( of people clamoring for beer, the couple jireceded upstairs in se.irch of an intimate corner table. In the ascent, Hoell protected his girlfriend from both Brian Mcintosh ' s extremely limited vocab- ulary and Al Stone ' s roaming fing( rs. For the following two hours, Hoell opted for Stev(? Stone ' s attention in trying to order a pizza. Meanwhile, Steve was running in and out of the kitchiMi wher( )ohn Bader was creating all vari- eties of Italian masterpieces. (Steve knew better than to eat any pizza that night.) When he fi- nally did get to Hoell ' s table, however, all the pizza dough had run out, owing to Nancy Se- line ' s doughnut delicacies created in the Stu- dent Center fryer. So, hungry and exhausted, Hoell and his girlfriend wandered back to Holder Hall. All was not lost in Hoi ' ll ' s mind, however, for he still had his big move to anticipate. Meads of perspiration swelled on his |)alms as Ihciy passed into the courtyard, .ind they wer(r al- ready thirty-five ste|)s u|) the tower vvhtMi a hor- rible thought pifTciMl Htxill ' s conciMitration. He had (MivisionjMJ the; whole situation as perfect for smooth seduction-his roommate hiid gone home for the w(M;k(!nd, the room was dark and c|ui(;t, and most important, he was psyched! Hoell was now a college man and therefore ex- perienccnl. So why hadn ' t he rcimcmibercnl to pick up his fresh sh(!ets from Blakely? With a (juick (!xcuse, Ho(!ll raced down the stairs to th(! laundry lockers in ntirvous fear. He fumbled with lh{! lock for seemingly an eternity, only to find his metal compartmcmt empty. Now the big qu(!stion was, could he be suave; (;nough to over- com(! the disadvantage; of an uncovcjnul mat- tress? Ho(!ll wasn ' t so sure; that he could. It had been a long, crowded, bewildering day, and it looked as though the night held in store; even more confusion. mimi pivirott ann scotn(;v a declaration of independence?

These and other similarly unique experi- ences are as alien to the Prospect Street or D.F.S. diner ' s day as they are integral to the Independent ' s routine. Whoever coined the word independent to describe those Princeton students who ate neither at clubs nor at Commons was probably never an Independent himselt. Granted, the name makes a certain amount of sense: those brave souls who attempt to eke out some sort of existence through rounds of Hamburger Helper and Shake n Bake have more than a bit of the old frontier spirit of rugged independence within their hungry beings. But. would you call a person who must cut short his or her attendance at an afternoon seminar in order to run to Davidson ' s to pick up a few things an independent ? Would you call someone independent who spends part of many waking hours planning next weeks menu-only to discover that to afford Monday ' s meal they must eat lik e inmates for the rest of the week? What is so indc- pendcmt about missing the first piiriod of a hock(!y game because it ' s my night to do the dishes ? Brav(r? Yes, Foolish? Maybe. But indepc-ndimt? Sorry, it fails to apply. 1 spent my junior year in a very large and pre- dominantly independent suite. It was the year 1 B.S. (Be- fore Spelman) and we had it made; the kitchen-complete with university-supplied refrigerator freezer, aluminum sink and s(!lf-cleaning oven with four burners-was neatly tucked away in a corner of th(! room. We had enough manpower to alternate, in rational fashion, the various onerous chores of meal preparation: and. incred- ibly, we even had a parent-provided portable dish- washer. You never caught us descending poorly-lit stair- cases carrying stacks of dirty dishes destined for the bathroom sink or cooking our meals on clandestine hot- plates that were hidden with the approach of proctors or trudging through the elements on our way to some kitchen [he. university generously provided three and a half city blocks away. Unlike our fellow independents, ours was a life of relative ease. When that concrete and glass ghetto of independents was still only a gleam in Bowen ' s eye. 211 Gauss Hall stood almost alone as an in- dependent ' s dream-house. Maybe ten roommates would be a bit much, others reasoned, but it was only there that the joy of cooking could become a daily experience and not just a cookbook. Much to our distress but much to the pleasure of those hard-hearted philosophers who believe that only through adversity can man truly thrive, our year of independence was not notable for its success. We lasted for a good part of the year; but. because of springtime, j.p. ' s. and other assorted acts of God and nature, one by one of us dropped out of communal arrangement until our collec- tive independence virtually collapsed. So when I first heard of the coming of Spelman and of the pleasures it would bestow to the prospective indepen- dent. I was skeptical: perhaps it was true that comfort breeds complacency and convenience fosters sloth. I de- cided to test these hypotheses by visiting two groups of friends who. with the luck of the room draw, found them- selves sequestered in relative splendor in that windowed paradise for the voyeur or exhibitionist known as The Laura Spelman Memorial Dormitories. The results of my siMiii-sociological inquiry were, as uc semi-sociologists would say, inconclusive. On the one hand (a phrase also common among the sociological breed and indicative of their decisiveness), there was Hi Spelman, home of Peter Forshay, Tony Piskac, Pat Hc- Muth and Joe Wright. Their kitchen passed the inlamous white glove test with flying colors, as did the re.st of their apartment; their meals were well-planned, ui ' ii-limcil. and well-done. Homemade bread, among oilier deli- cacies, often graced thcur small dining table, and, perhaps most impressive, they served salad in salad bowls, a privilege I had thought had been reserved by the socially prominent. In short, the data accumulated from 16 Spel- man clearly schemed to fly in the face of my initial cynical assumptions. I was then somewhiil refreshed to visit 34 Spelmiui, a similarly shaped suite housing Roger Hudson, Neff Walker, Jonny Hines, and Nat Niles. 1 note that the suites are similarly shaped only because that is where the sim- ilarity stops. As I made my tour of the place, the chemist of the bunch was busy watching a vitamin E capsule become engulfed in flames on the stove ' s hot right front burner: an apple core that had found a comfortably moist corner in the living room had actually sprouted a small bud which one of the four-apparently a botanist by avocii- tion-began attending to; upon careful inspection, the dishes that crowded the sink appeared to date from a meal shortly after the Last Supper. The telling of two recent tragedies can underscore the plight of the four. One roommate, nicknamed Hungry Jack , spends most of his time— even by his own admis- sion—scavenging for misplaced morsels. Shortly after one of his comrades returned from a fairly successful shop- ping trip armed with all of the necessities as well as a package of Brillo pads, another roommate noticed that the newly acquired scouring pads had mysteriously dis- appeared. With some understandable reluctance, all eyes slowly turned toward Hungry Jack, who cryptically re- sponded with only a faint smile, a wink, and a peculiar belch. Th(! other recent horror story began quite innocently for the foursome: one received notice of a package that had been mailed from an unfamiliar location. Not sus- pecting that the package contained anything of value, the addressee neglected making the necessary trip to Dod Hall to claim the mysterious parcel. Several notices later and after the intended recipient was half a continent away enjoying thi; Christmas break, a concerned room- mate embarked on the long trek and received a package marked Perishable. As the package was opened, tears were shed as the remaining roommates learned the extent to which they had paid for their friend ' s laziness. Inside, they found a pheasant, a duck, and a ham, each neatly wrapped in cellophant;. Three or four weeks ago, these; delicacies needed only a warming to be ready for a per- fectly delightful eating; now, covered with small, curious looking bugs and an untold acreage of mold, the three treats were scarcely deserving of the garbage can. And thus, the deadly sin of sloth cost these four hungry indc- pimdfml men the meal of their lifetimes.

Hut this stale of social torpidity was a residt more (tf a l.ick of leadership than of the actual size of the membership. ( )tice the vacuum in hiadership was filled, the prohlem of numhers jjroved to hi; no prohlem. And allhouj h the so- hitioM of the leadership question was we(;ks in coming, it proved to he a very satisfactory one, one that mark(!(i a significant chanj ' e in the slructuri; of Madison ' s executive hranch. In the past Madison had been run hy a sinjjle student, appointed by the t)ean of Student Affairs. This year, fac(!d with no studf nt director and with the fad that can- didates were sor(!ly few in numbr;r. differtmt members of the Society came tos !lher and proposed that a committee of members rather than a sinf ' lc! student direct the .social activities of Madison. Eventually the idea was accepted, and the Madison Society Social Committee was formed. Th(! chairman and the; five members of the committee im- mediately began to imphiment a social program, based on the idea of the candlelight dinner. Special theme dinners were planned, and a faculty fellows program was dis- cussed and investigated. In addition, Madison began par- ticipating more fully in the inter-club intramural pro- gram, fielding basketball and squash teams in the winter and, hopefully all teams in the spring. Indeed, a great va- riety of social activities came under the cf)nsideration of the committee. On the other hand, a major conflict arose during the fall which thr(!alencd the growth of Madison ' s activities. When Madison Society was founded several years ago, it was envisioned to be a viable alternative to the other eat- ing facilities on campus. More convenient for the down- campus students than Commons, more personal and so- cially active, possessing an atmosphere more low-key than that of the clubs, and lacking the residential restric- itions of the Inn and Wilson College, Madison immedi- ately filled a need on campus. Early in November, how- ever. th(! Society was shocked to learn of plans to construct an office on the eastern part of the dining area. Should these plans go through, the con.sequences would he devastating. The view of the tennis courts and of cam- pus would be lost, and the consumption of 20% of the floor space would crowd the members intolerably. The number and variety of social activities would be limited. In general, Madison would lose much of ils desirability as a viable dining alternative. With unusual unity and dis- play of feeling, the members of Madison expressed their discontent with the plans. No final decision about the of- fice has yet been made by the authorities, hut it is un- likely that the original plan for construction will be pur- sued. And so Madison moves onward. The Madison experience: elevator rides in New South, candlelight dinners at the highest student dining facility on campus, the celebrated Madison sunset -a very ple.isur.dile experience, and, at Princeton, unique. What is the mood and atmosphere of Wilson Colhjge? Wilson College is more than an eating facility or a social facility or a place to study. It is first of all a home for three hundred seventy-five people consisting of 1937, 1938, 1939, 1922, and Dodge Osborn Halls and has its psy- chic center in Wilcox Hall. In this setting some of the im- permanence of dormitory life is eradicated, and people can come together with some common sense of identity and purpose. However, this sense of identity and purpose is not imposed upon its members but grows out of their pleasure in the place and its people. For some, Wilson College serves as a stopping-off point one year only: for others it is home for four years. Suites that begin with bare dormitory essentials emerge after conscientious efforts by suitemates as homes with all the accoutrem(Mits for gracious living. Some suites have sub- stantial collections of Indian headdresses and African art. Some suites have pianos and weekly sing-alongs. Indeed, a Christmas party in 1939 Hall featured a string quartet made up of the members of Wilson College. Th(! focus of college life is Wilcox Hall. Here one can eat, practice Bach upstairs on the piano, study in the car- rels, and sample the extensive social science collection in Julien Street Library. Why is Wilson College different from a facility like the Princeton Inn? What sort of quality does it possess? Per- haps, the difference lies in its greater freedom and heter- ogeneity. Wilson is not characterized by any one life style or campus personality. Here engineers and poets can en- gage in heterodox discussions of philosophy. Wilson pos- sossos .1 viMV iiullviilii.ilislic (;h.ir.ii;li ' r imlioiiiiiliMl liy .my rules or Iraili lions; yd il is not wild, hut posscssi-s a sort of internal order and di jnity consistent with i ' rineiMon. Wilson, on the whole, .seems to attract the more serious student. i)ul this same student will readily put aside his or o text or his Norton Anthology and enj ajje in a spon- taneous jjame of volleyball. Some people do not feel thai a separate conccpl ol .1 college has validity; others lake Wilson ColleKe tor granted. Yet, when faced with an assault on its autonomy in fundinn. members rallied to keep Wilson independent, lit the separate and distinct quadranjjle relationship of Wilscm College, the concept of Woodrow Wilson is realized. The Princeton Inn would appniir to he one of the cam- pus ' s most desirable living options. Yel it is threatening to become what some have termed a freshman ghetto. Certainly, the Inn ' s architecture and setting alone should be enough to attract and keep students. Its gracious brick exterior with old-style columns and balcony is com- plemented by the green rolling hills of the golf course and by the lake of goldfish. Where else on campus, indeed, can one find wall-to-wall carpeting, air-conditioning, pri- vate bathroom, and beautiful sunsets to enhance the at- mosphere at dinner? And yet despite all, each year large portions of the Inn ' s residents have hoped to leave the Inn for up-campus life. The Slater report, analyzing the results of a 1973 ques- tionnaire completed by Innmates, found that residents objected primarily to the Inn ' s location and isolation from the main campus and to the small room size. Getting to classes in the morning is rough enough by itself, but a long uphill walk past a parking lot and a train station in- creases the inconvenience to more than merely irritating proportions. And spending the year in the Annex or Ad- dition, in a tiny room doubly enclosed by white cinder block walls, cannot do much to help the February blues. Correcting these difficulties is currently high on the university ' s list of priorities. Over the summer it in- stalled, in addition to new lounge and kitchenette furni- ture, almost entirely new kitchen facilities to replace the fifteen-to-twenty-year-old facilities from the Inn ' s hotel days. The university also downrated some of the doubles into singles and added two new resident faculty mem- bers. Most effective were the efforts of the Inn ' s new masters, Joanna and Larry Lipking, at adding new pro- grams. Their enthusiasm for the concept of a residential college, together with a determination to create a stronger psychological link between the Inn and the main campus, holds the most promise for the Inn in the years to come. Who knows; maybe they will finally persuade the Inn- mates to rename their college. Accordingly, the Inn is by no means a failure-it is just experiencing growing pains. It remains perhaps the best place on campus to meet people easily. The corridor .setup, as opposed to the entry system, is conducive to making friends quickly. And the dining room is a great improvement over the less friendly Commons and a wel- come change from the clubs. Based on these factors, the pervading atmosphere of the Inn has become a conglom- eration of weekly sherry parties in a mirrored dining room, pizza or peanut-butter-and-jelly study breaks in the coffee shop, and chaotic beer bashes of a Friday night in the Annex or the Additon. Very representative of all Princeton— yet one v(;ry individualistic segment. You h.id to look it it like you look .it .1 new hdhy. Somehow vvc had crtMtcid a club (. ' x ii hilo. at least a club of questionabh; parentage, and there it was. Campus had been an affectionate chaos of just folks, but it was trans- formed in the twinkling of an eye into a new thing, and even we, th(! moth(!rs who had done it, were surprised at our child. When the baby lies there fre.sh, crying in its red-faced incongruity, there is nothing you can say but, ■ ' What hath God wrought? There was a certain gangling awkardness in this kid; overdue, it already looked like a punk who has grown too fast. Its head was at first a little too big for its squirming body, but it was not just that. It was as if parts from sixty foundlings were stuck together with Elmer ' s or Gordon ' s or grits, formed into a whole new creature with all the charm of an infant chimera. Between the receding hair- lint! of a leonine stock broker and the bushy moustache of a stout Italian butcher were a strictly egalitarian down- turned nose and eyes that did not match. One eye was shifty and resigned to evasion, and the other looked right at you: it was the analytic eye of the physics major, the unequal empty square, the eye of the holy c. This baby had the cheek of a French swinger and the gat-toothed grin of a merry Chaucerian wife of the men ' s bathroom. It seemed that no part of this child resembled any other. Need we say more? But it was a baby and it had to be beautiful, groping in the waning light for something to hold: a smile, a prayer, a pat on the butt: the heraldic clinking of glass, the pounding on the piano with a crowd around, the growl- ing in the kitchen and the basketball court: cowboys in the pool room and goodboys in the libe: Walter on the TV and Walter on the prowl: watching, grasping, finding that wh at we founded once again was nothing more than who we were: an affectionate chaos, a club. fipus. 1969 1 TTf ' ' S CAP e Hidden behind ;in enormous olm tree ;ind flanked by the hu i! iirchilectiirid block of Cottage Club is the house of Cap and Cown, I)espit(! the unassuming facade, the (juiet building will always r(!lain an allure for all those who venture within. From the vm carpeting to the dimly 111 living rooms and soft couches, the spacious but in- lim.ite interior remains a charming stage for many a good time. Having .ittracted the largest sections on the street in both regular and fall bicker of 1973, Cap thrives with a membership of quantity and quality. These committed students often forsake their studi(!s for the vicissitudes of backgammon or All My Children. At other times beads of perspiration roll for the glory of Cap-som(!times. as in squash or hock(!y, with fine results, in a hang loose ap- proach to lAA athletics. When the schedules of such ar- duous lives permit. Chairman Steamer leads the hosts of Cap on a frantic autumnal social chase from the theatres of New York to the ri ' staurants of japan to th( ' casinos of the Caribbean and even beyond to the world of the oc- cult. But perhaps the finest times at Cap and Gown ap- pear with chance manifestations of its collective wit and humor. For many years to come the walls will resound with the echoes of the stories of Lops and the laughter of Kelso. Shad and all Roe people. Chii itii L. To describe the mood of Charter Club, one must be ca- pable of capturing the extraordinary. The clubhouse proper is a thirty-eight-room mansion of elegance. The surrounding grounds are lusciously verdant. It is in this environment that the one hundred members participate in social encounters which range from eating meals to partying in one of our famous zoos-from competing in ICC athletics to watching a tube team event-from beer on tap to wine-tasting. The social life is limited only by the individual ' s desires. Although Charter ' s sumptuous library is open to all, it is always possible to feesh some tuna into anything which may detract from their academic pursuits. Many prospective scholars have blossomed into funloving people under the influence of the Charter tradition. In fact, some members find Charter life so desirable that they come back to Princeton for a fifth or sixth year. From a personal point of view, no one can measure the qualitative effects this club has on the Princeton experi- ence. Charter certainly provides a relaxed form of inter- action with other students and most definitely relieves tension wrought by academic pressures. We at Charter feel that the only way a pt-rson can truly appreciate our life style is to participate! in it. C omi; and visit us at 79 Prospect. It hiis Ix ' cn siiid that .inyonc can Bickf-r. but it lakes j iits to join Colonial. In fad. in order to achieve the dis- tinction of Colonial membership, some ninety stout souls arose in the; wee hours to brave the frosty bile of a cold D(!cember morn. Although it seemed crazy then, that ex- perience is now looked upon nostalgically, for it helped to foster an immediate sense of camaraderie the likes of which, we are convinced, cannot be attained by any other membership policy. For those ninety gutsy undergrads. Coloni.il has meant a number of things. Each member has contributed in his own way to the character of the club by wailing on table.s. playing iCC sports, cleaning up after parlies, or simply sitting around after dinner to talk and to joke. The Club has provided a place to study and to backgammon around the clock, as well as to party. Under Howards loving care we moved easily each week from the eleg.mce of .1 Casino Night to the nonelegance of a traditional beer bash. It may be a long time before we forget Peters fun-fdled meetings (probably not!). Roy ' s special sauce. or New Year ' s in November. Though it took jzuts to join, it was certainlv worth the wail. ! i ' f One of the few remaining coed-free havens on campus, Cottage Club, founded in 1886, has preserved its eighty- seven year-old tradition of all-male membership despite the constant storming of its doors by crazed women. Al- though the charge of male chauvinist piggery is often hurled at The Frat, the true woman-hater is hard to find there; most members just see no point in tampering with thi! easygoing atmosphere by admitting females. That atmosphere has been promoted by the antics of a succession of large and bumbling social chairmen, The Phunt and Gorilla being the latest in the line of buf- foons. Their main exploits have been aquatic ones as Ihcy spend much time being borne upon the shoulders of the masses into the infamous Fountain behind the club. This fate also greets those unlucky enough to have a birthday (either real or according to the Polish calen- dar ) or to accomplish something extraordinary or to pro- voke hv. ire of the club manager, Matty Glinka. Matty, also known as The Old Man or Grandpa, was born around the time th( whe(;l was inventcui, and has been a club manager since 3600 B.C. He is a colorful figure, easily identified by his herringbone tweed jacket, mastodon loincloth, and stone axe, and constantly enter- tains people with his tales of the good old days when a cave stood on the site of the pr(;sent club building. (Cottage is noted for great food, fine parties, tough win- ter sport teams, F. Scott Fitzgcirald, and above all, a real sense of camaraderie among its members.

WL J Jrn H A i V r LUB A year is given its character by events, and Ivy has had many— too many, perhaps, to recount here; too many in- tangibles to put into writing. Geoffrey Michaels ' s violin concert, the game with the women ' s field hockey team, the seminars with faculty, the parties, the inter-club athletics, the meals— all set against the steady themes of Cole Porter on the piano, the continuous bouncing of ping pong balls and the all too frequent mornings— after at the breakfast table. The Middle East, the energy crisis, Watergate, co-edu- cation and bicker— a few of the many issues to come and, sometimes, go; but always issues to be considered and discussed. Tempers sometimes flared when opinions clashed. Yet afterwards, over leaf raking and champagne, baseball and bourbon, we came together again— a little more solidly and with a renewed respect for each other. The constants were Prosper and Mary, keeping the Club in perfect running order and adding immeasurably to Ivy ' s character and success.

You ' ve gotta write a thing for the Bric-a-Brac; call this number. I answered, quite logically I thought. Why me? Cause you ' re in the lousy English department! Knowing that 1 couldn ' t hope to argue with this logic. I resigned myself to missing the credits and the thrill of seeing Marlene Deitrich ' s and Jimmy Stewart ' s names in lights. That ' s the way things happen at Terrace Club- randomly aimed hysteria coupled with periods of intense apathy. The first memory I have of Terrace is a party my freshman year watching the Holy Modal Rounders and these two insane jitterbuggers. Rags with his Viking hel- m(!t and somebody else ' s unidentified date. The second memory is playing pool there until 4 a.m. because there was nothing else to do. Terrace exists in the limbo be- tween the snob appeal of Prospect St. and the freak ap- peal of Edwards hall, coinciding som(!what with its loca- tion on Washington Rd.

If is a place; for those who are bent on enjoying the Princeton experience rather than just experiencing it. I remember most a warmth, a certain persistence of en- ergy that filled every possible airspace. You had only to walk in the front door and it welcomed you, sucked you in, sent you spinning with good feelings. But what did one do? Laugh a lot. There was always laughter, a good time to be found. The people were fun to be with, they seemed to want to be happy, and that was real. Every degree of life- pleasure happened there at some time or other. There was something for everyone ...

The front door opened, letting out a few scurrying figures into the night, letting in a momentary l)last of cold air.

Hel- ler lo haven ' l IxM-n born once Ihan to n(!V(T have been born twice before! From this rousinj battle cry came the creation of Stevenson Hall, a nonnisidential. university- sponsored eating hall. Envisioncul as an allernativf; lo the c:lul)s and as a place in which lo build a community within the univ(!rsity, Stevtmson Hall welcomed over two hundred diverse and perverse members, from «rad stu- dents to freshmen to Moratio Ossenfaus. The Hall quickly developed an extremely varied and unstructured .social life with almost all activities being initiated by students. While our gatherings at Slevim.son Hall ranged from small folk parties to archetypical rock parties with band and booze, none of our activities was more religiously attended than the all-night vigils around the pinball machines, held in remembrance of Sir Hall Stev(!nson. These tests of physical and monetary endur- ance were often followed by great revelry around the textbooks upstairs in the study carrels. To relieve much of the academic pressure built up by daily Star Trek so- ciiMy meetings and Diplomacy sessions many of us added a bit of relaxation to our lives by eating our meals with our faculty fellows and masters. Because Sir Hall favored himself a boxing and baseball champion, Stevenson Hall usually fields intramural teams in all po.ssible sports. The Fred Starr Volleyball Tournament served as th(! Hall-spon.sored finale for the year ' s sports, after nightly volleyball throughout the fall and spring with two all-night games. For the .idvcnture- some we had our two trips on the Delaware, which pro- vided more than their share of haz.irds. l.iughs and sore shouldiTs.

' ■v -. : . -dl inhabitable habitats The styles of decor in Princeton ' s dormitories must by nature vary through a vast range owing to the many differing types of architecture rep- resented on our campus. Most people generally find that there is only so much that they can do with a room— curtains, rugs, couches, posters, and paintings. However, the ingenuity of the Princeton student has indeed been evinced by the creating of some attractive and often un- usual living quarters. Centrally located on campus is Blair Tower, the home of approximately twenty Princeton jocks representing all shades of the sports spec- trum: rugby, football, swimming, crew, wres- tling, and others. The twenty residents are unanimous in their supporting membership in Tiger Inn, forming truly one, big, happy fam- ily with the common sentiment that every- thing in the tower belongs to everyone. Blair Tower represents a visible narrative of much of Princeton ' s past. In the early 1900 ' s it provided the setting for the Princeton physics professors ' observation of Haley ' s comet. This historic location-the party room— is tucked away immediately beneath the Blair Tower clock where a guest reclining upon the sizeable window seat may look out over much of the campus. Relics of many past parties remain to grace the room in the form of bottles lining one entire wall. Secret passageways and rooms waft further reminders of former good times. The old parietal room, for example, entered through a trap door in the floor of the television room, has repeatedly provided the means for the rapid dis- appearance of female visitors upon the arrival of University proctors. Additional reminis- censes in the shape of a moose-head shot by Ollie Carver on a safari plus a buffalo shot by Wild Bill Cody adorn the T.V. room. And, of course, the lofts and other supplementary fur- nishings constructed by former graduates still stand to nourish the memories of the traditions upheld by successive occupants of the suites. However, it is neither the furnishings nor the large hexagonal rooms which make Blair Tower unique, but rather the tremendous sense of cam- araderie among its inhabitants and the pride which these fellows take in their Princeton heri- tage. One occupant characterized the tower as a bit of the old Princeton. The memorabilia runs from scores of old football games engraved on the mantels through memorials to Blair Tower alumni who gave their lives in World Wars I and II. Reunions call for special celebra- tions, for the Blair Tower alumni— including the famed Bill Bradley as well as fathers and uncles of certain present residents of the tower-return each June to be greeted by a warm and ex- tremely hospitable reception in their one-time habitat. The heirlooms of the tower are numerous: be- longings and Princetonia of past residents, left to the tower to be cherished for years to come. An oar from the boat of the 1944 crew team, a hockey stick from the 1920 Princeton-Harvard game, and a barrel from the first cane spree lead off the list of prized ' possessions. The Hobey Baker Memorial Plaque, bestowed each year upon the captain of the football team, hangs above the mantel in the room of this personage. Nearby in the trophy room stands a sterling sil- ver urn, presented annually since 1895 to the president of the Right Wing Society, the oldest regularly meeting drinking society in the United States. Finally, supplementing the set of trophies and the several commemorative plaques of Blair Tower is a collection of inter- national flags, gathered by Charlie Campbell on a tour of Europe last summer, in addition to the flag of Trinidad, presented to the rugby team by the President of Trinidad. fe-- Ml ■k 1 B K ri 1 1 1 r n 1 ■ -U- g A - s fli l !! ii Other dormitory suites on campus do not pro- vide the space found in Blair Tower for experi- mentation in interior decoration; nevertheless, students have devised ways of co ping with the square-foot shortage. Brad Strobel and Jim McGee have applied a little engineering know- how in their construction of beds-on-pulleys. A loft was too typical an idea, according to Jim ' s insistence; yet they wanted to save space. Thus, they used pulleys to suspend from the ceiling beds that could at night be lowered to rest on 4x4 beams. Additional floor space is provided by fold-up desk tops supported by hinges. Upon the living room floor of this three-room triple rests a motley patchwork carpet made of duplicates, leftovers, or samples— an invaluable suggestion for anyone desiring a reasonably priced carpet. The patchwork effect is corri- plemented by sofa, tables, chairs, and a bar that was constructed and stained in less than a day. Certainly 51 Littleepitorriizes the employment of creative practicality in the decorating of a suite. Only a few entries away in 183 Little Hall is found the stylish and tasteful home of Roger i2fa -J ! ' ( i;( W 1 J ' ■ K ' ■ v ..5 ■ ' ■i 1 : jlf ' - fm ' St f mui . Collins. Jeff Lilly. P. ' t( r Lincoln, and nciinis Sweeney. This loursonic hcj .ui to rorinul.itc plans for decorating their suite durinj readinj- period of last year, shortly after they had s(;- lected it in room draw, but claim that at present they still have not completed carryinj out their plans. Their large living room is an ideal place for the sm.dl. informal parti( s which they hold a few times a week. Surrounding the fireplace are a beautiful white couch doubling as a con- vertible sofa bed, tvvi) reclining chairs, and a smokeil glass coffee table. The table stands over a leopard rug which Roger shot a few years ago on an African Safari in Kenya. Together with several Japanese watercolors, l)0()kshelves fill the wallspace near the mantel. A sleek maga- zine rack built around the radiator allows heat to pass through holes on top of and beneath the shelves. This Princetonian team of four has carpeted most of their suite and antiqued all of the wood. Curtains blending with the color scheme of green and white decorate the large bay window. Below, the ten-foot window seat architecturally emphasizes the relationship between the two halves of the living room. The second half is dominated by a bar, complete with a running- water sink powered by an electric pump. The foursome designed and built the bar themselves, including the addition of panelling and formica, and stained the shelves and barstools. They also demonstrated a certain foresight in purchasing a portable dishwasher, which rapidly polishes a lovely collection of crystal stemware. Lending the final touches to the overall impression are a bridge table and chairs, a clock that runs back- wards (how ' s that for keeping time?), and a min- iature slot machine. A crystal chandelier lights the entrance hall. The bedrooms are also graced by a unique aura. Jeff ' s stereo cabinet is built over his water- bed and is attached to the bed ' s frame. Dennis and Roger nightly climb up to their lofts by means of a folding ladder large enough to pro- vide space for a storage cabinet. The residents of 183 Little consider their suite to be more of a home than a dormitory. As Peter has noted. It ' s comfortable and people seem to enjoy being in here and relaxing. and this sort of atmosphere is important to them. In fact, in order to allow their guests to relax, or perhaps to breathe a little more freely, the hosts have wired a security system within the room for de- tecting intruders. Also safety-conscious are the eleven residents of 211 Gauss Hall, installers of a similar alarm system. From the second-story balcony one may obtain a bird ' s eye view of the living room, cer- tainly the only dormitory room on campus with a twenty-foot ceiling. Full-length curtains are complemented and enlivened by the color of original paintings created by the mother of one of the suitemates, Josh Levine. A bar and kitchen in one corner are balanced by a piano in another. A preponderance of orange throughout the suite demonstrates the loyalty of the men of Gauss to none other than Old Nassau. Their slight bit of memorabilia is a goal post from the Princeton-Dartmouth hockey game of 1969. Many people might find living in such a large community suite to somewhat resemble exis- tence inside a zoo. Occupants of 211 Gauss, however, found this to be not the case at all; one resident even commented, It ' s big enough— you lose yourself in the crowd. The bedrooms re- flect each individual ' s personality and style. Lofts are plentiful— one possessing a ladder that slides down on a pulley. Other rooms are com- pletely panelled, and one even boasts an ancient Incan sundial. Overlooking Gauss Hall is the Rock Suite, 231 Walker Hall, which at some time was occupied by one of the famed Rockefellers. Unfortu- nately, we have been unable to locate any ini- tials etched in the wood or upon the walls and so cannot determine exactly which Rockefeller bore the honor. Rock Suite must be the largest quad on cam- pus, consisting of a living room and three bed- rooms on three floors. After going up the stairs to the second floor, we reach a ladder leading to the third floor, where used to hide a storage room and where is now concealed a single bed- room. This cubicle has rough stone walls and a nine-foot rough-hewn ceiling. Since the only en- trance to this room-healless incidentally-is through a rectangular hole above the second floor, the furnishings had originally to be hauled up piecemeal through the window. The room ' s currtmt occupant, Steve Robbins, uses a large desk, boasting an old door as a desk top. A shelf over the desk is suspended from the ceil- ing. Due to the transportation burdens caused by the peculiar entryway. all these furnishings had to be constructed within the room it.self. From the third floor another ladder edges up the wall to the roof. The rooftop appears small, surrounded by low walls, but would have b -en ideal for comet-watching if Kohouiek had ever appeared. A parietal room like the one at Blair is no longer used but is located behind the crawlspace in Jim Donlan ' s closet. A large living room with bar, T.V, and three- piece sectional turquoise sofa complete the en- semble. An old wagon wheel functions as a chandelier which illuminates the four swim team veterans-Mark Carabasi, Doug Lennox. Jim Donlan. and Steve Robbins-shooting snow- balls onto the rooftop of Gauss Hall. Persons with varying life styles and diverse preferences in regard to their surroundings- Princeton students embody the tastes of a wide cross-section of contemporary society. Yet. each room and each effort in furnishings somehow portray the character of that occupant: every suite offers an intimation of its residents ' emo- tional make-up. Thus does the campus physi- cally depict the unlimited contrasts extant among the personalities of individuals.

You were listening to the Princeton Tigertones in a repertoire presented to the audiences at schools and col- leges all along the East Coast. Listeners can hear fifte(!nth c(!ntury ballads, spirituals, songs recorded by the Asso- ciation-the Monotones-James Taylor, plus the more tra- ditional Goodbye, My Coney Island Baby. Rich man. poor man, beggarmon, tbiaf. Doctor, lawyer, merchant, chief. We (ill ore hound for . . . . . . the Mount Snow Ski Resort each wintiM ' . As the snow falls outside, the flickering firelight of the lodge glows on the faces of singing Tigertones. Come springtime, meet us at the beautiful Princess Hotel in Hamilton, Bermuda. There amid the green palms, pink beaches, and sapphire seas, we treat hotel guests to many of the songs produced on our latest album, Getting Down to Business. Whether in Bermuda or Princeton, N.J., we are made conscious of the tradition of all Tigertones, past and present. One retired Tigertone recently wrote, I assume you ' re enjoying those things I enjoyed . . . and with en- thusiasm. We are. Whether performing for four hundred fifty screaming females or singing for a sick Tigertone in the infirmary, we find that being a Tigertone means en- thusiastic comaraderie and enthusiastically good times. That ' s the way it was when we organized around a beer keg in 1946; that ' s the way it is today. Picasso ' s Himd o u Woman The Women ' s Center is an organization initiated in 1970. A primary purpose of this organization was and is to provide an opportunity for interaction among the women of Princeton University on a social basis. In addi- tion, through the Women ' s Center, undergraduate and graduate students can organize to consider the attitudes, policies and specific issues relevant to Princeton women. This year the Women ' s Center expanded its facilities to include a Women ' s Lounge. The lounge is in Terrace Club ' s lower living room and is open to all Princeton women. The Women ' s Center also retains its office space in Room 201, Green Hall Annex: this space is essentially used by task forces of the Women ' s Studies Committee of the UGA and the Princeton University Women ' s Organi- zation. This Women ' s Center office is open at specific times during the week so that women who want to drop by or call can get in touch with the Center. Several Women ' s Task Forces operate under the aegis of the Women ' s Center. These committees include the following: Women ' s Films and Speakers-this task force re- searches lists of women ' s films and in conjunction with other Princeton women ' s groups sponsors film se- ries and special film presentations on campus. In addi- tion they contact speakers to participate in seminars or to speak on women ' s issues. Women ' s Newspaper— members of the Women ' s Cen- ter are investigating the economic feasibility of pub- lishing a women ' s newspaper in cooperation with members of the entire Princeton community. This would cover women ' s sports, film and book reviews and other women ' s events and issues. Consciousness Raising Groups-these are small groups of people who discuss male-female concerns on a per- sonal level. In addition there are some temporary task forces working on specific projects, such as a Seminar Day on Women, and legal aid for women. The governing body of the Women ' s Center is a Coordinating Board consisting of the organizers of the different task forces. This Board is flexible and its mem- bership changes as the emphasis of the Women ' s Center changes. Members of the. Women ' s Ccntor: All undergraduate and graduate; womim of Princeton University.

BUSINESS TODAY maga- zine from an office in Princeton ' s Green Hall Annex. Our purpose is simply to promote better understanding between the business and the academic communities. We believe there has been a breakdown of communication between the campus and th(! corporation, leading to some animosity. We seek to close this ccjmmunicalion gap. Bi ' .SlNESS TODAY itself is the country ' s largest stu- dent-published magazine. Our job is to put together ccm- tent that we think students will read, to choose an au- dience of students who will be interested. and-Ihe unending struggle-to sell enough ads to enable us to print and send out the magazine. Hand-in-hand with the magazine is our other activity, organizing conferences. In November our BUSINESS TOMORROW II conference brought liberal arts faculty and students together with lop business executives and gave them a chance to talk face to face and to establish contacts for future interaclicm between the campus and the corporation. All resulting feedback since the confer- ence indicates that it was a fantastic success. BT. as we know it. is a chance for students on the staff to deal with the practical, the so-called real world. We al- ways have financial problems, which as students we ' re not equipped to handle properly-bul we learn quickly. We have dr-alings with the government. busin ' ss. and the University. These encounters with public executives are jobs we learn to handle. There is always more work to be done at the office. But hard-core BT people come to love the office and their job. an education in itself. ' ■ - T-±:-i a .... .. V II...1 ,1........ ,. , •,.,... ij....,i 1 ••• ' •• •..« -J- . .r......

In the 97th, the Daily Princcjtonian covered something new but which really wasn ' t so new .iftci- all: Princeton, Inc. While the Prince ' h.id always aroused anj er among the enemies of a free press— enemies in Nassau Hall, on Pros- pect Avenue, or within the far reaches of alumniland (as Alumni Council director David Rahr puts it), for far too long it had contented itself with the sugary cover of day- to-day Princeton that everyone knows so well. So, the editors decided to do something about it. First, they decided to probe the cheeper recess of Princeton, Inc. And what did they find? Well, S693,000 from Las Vegas gambling interests fueling the Wilson School Parvin Fellows Program, $221,000 (sixty percent under the table) from Princeton trustees to the Com- mittee to Re-Elect the President, a plush Pocono resort where administrators were spending $750 a day, and a $1.6 million investment in the Equity Funding Corpora- tion of America that was one hundred per cent hot air. Ami if money wasn ' t enough, they discovered oth(!r things in the ways that Princeton treats people. Like pro- fessors up for tenure who are literally thrown to the wolves by the self-styled Committee of Three, high school seniors whose admissions to Princeton are treated as casually as a swap of baseball cards, women faculty (and students) who are denied jobs and grants and ad- vancement solely because they are women, and a whole host of people who are shunted around when the Dean of the Faculty decides that the Pub keeps him up all night. There were lots of other things that they came up with, too. Like Princetons feudal relationship with the sur- rounding area— did you know that Princeton was central jersey ' s largest landlord? Or that your grades arc so rela- tively inflated that they are virtually meaningless? Or that there are now more bureaucrats managing the Uni- versity than ever before and that we are bureaucratizing more now but enjoying it less? But aside from a.ssuming its new role as public citizen and as unofficial response to Princeton, Inc., the Prince ' plowed on to new and bigger things. It expanded physi- c;ally (remember when the Prince ' was only four pages a day?). It issued a new magazine for Christmas, 1973. with its continuation into spring, 1974. It covered more and en- joyed it more. With the coverage increase, the staff grew, too. From a previously small staff, the ' Prince ' grew to well over fifty, with newswriters, feature writers, photographers, edito- rial writers, and a whole staff that beats the streets to sell ads that keep the Prince financially independent from Princeton, Inc., as one of only seven newspapers nation- wide receiving not one cent from their universities in compromise of their independence. Together, the Prince ' grew and pro.spered. There were more than minor growing pains, of course, with plenty of headaches for all who were involved, from the freshman candidates on the staff to the Princes ' 26-year Gibralter, Princeton fire chief Larry Dupraz, who kept putting out the paper every night-despite. Maybe, when we all look back, some of us will see that Princeton, Inc. wasn ' t quite the same place after it was all over. At 97, you can still teach old dogs new tricks. The ' Prince -some dog!

The hours are long, the meet- ings often dissolve into a special kind of ludicrousness. and the tangible results of UGA efforts are few and far between. And yet, for all that, working with the UGA is a unique and rewarding experience, to coin a phrase. There are certain bonds of friendship that develop among the fifty- three UGA members who share the suffering of marathon meetings as well as a deep concern for the welfare of stu- dents and the University. There is also the satisfaction of occasionally winning fights with the powers that be. and the fascination of learning about people and how they work tog(;ther. The Ass(!mhly h;is discussed a numl)(;r of issues this yi ' iir, some; of thorn mon; important than others. The As- sembly has provided :i major push for the adoption of an Equal Access Admissions policy, an idea whose time has clearly come, morally and lej ally. The UGA has also af- firmed its beli(!f in freedom of speech by callinj for the protection of the Shockley-Innis debate; while making cUuir its r(!pugnance for the principUis Shockley stands for. Minimizinf the hardships for students caused by the en(!r) y crisis has bc en another one; of the UGA ' s primary concerns. Stud(mts arc; clearly the key to the effectiveness of the UGA. Th(! quality of the reps and the interest of students in general are interr elated and determine how far the UGA can go. I have never been more aware of time limi- tations than this year when I ' ve tried holding tlown two full-time jobs— student and student leader— at the same time. Most reps face the same problem. We ' ve put in our best effort, and while that is often not enough, we have not abandoned our role of pushing for student interests in public and in private. We ' ve tried to improve communication by initialing regular UGA newsletters, in addition, the Assembly has set up a Student Government Commission that will hope- fully gel at the problem of a lack of continuity in the UGA hierarchy. I hope this Commission, which will out- live my l(Tm in office, will be able to present a set of pri- orities for the UGA for the years to come so that students will have a greater input in setting the University ' s agenda. 1 can never thank all those who have helped me through this year, but 1 think you know of my gratitude. I would like to single out my fellow officers. Quentin Plas- ter, jerry Blakemore, and jo Backer, as well as Joel. [im. Walter, my harassed roommates for phone answering, and. above all, Lois and Judith. To these people-reps, committee leaders, and friends m need-goes the hope thai what we have done this year will serve as a base for furlhrr UGA improvements to come andre sirenio. president At times the atmosphere is one of loud laughing, chat- ting and heavy music. At times it is the opposite: one voice lecturing on the cultural imperatives of white uni- versities. And often it is a mood of intense concern, per- haps anger, as a hundred solemn faces discuss a critical issue. But the focus has always remained the same— Third World students at Princeton, Third World people in America, and Third World people in the world. This has been the purpose of the Third World Culture Center in its three years of existence, to provide a forum where the needs— whether political, cultural, social, or in- tellectual—of Third World students at Princeton can be met. With this aim in mind. Third World Center activities have ranged from weekly social hours, to seminars on such topics as Asians in America, to occasional lectures and films on Third World themes. But the effectiveness of the Third World Center has thus far been restricted by spatial inadequacies and fi- nancial limitations. Once a fieldhouse for visiting foot- ball teams, the Osborne Fieldhouse was converted into the Third World Center in 1971 and has since been oper- ating under a tight budget to serve sixteen percent of the undergraduate population— the black, Latino, n.itive American, and Asian students. However, with a $190,000 addition scheduled to be completed by fall, 1974, the new two-building Third World Center will be abh? to increase its activities botii in scope and in participation. Pi-rhaps then llw Third World Culture Center will be able to develop ils polnilial fully. The educational program of Undergraduates for a Stable America continued through 1973 under the lead- ership of chairman Carolyn B. Kuhl ' 74. As the sponsor of the only continuing debate series on the Princeton cam- pus, USA presented two debates during the fall term. The first debate had as its subject Allende ' s Regime-Curse or Blessing to Chile? and involved a confrontation be- tween Professor Shane J. Hunt of the Princeton Econom- ics Department and Dr. Herminio Portell-Vila, former Professor of History at the University of Havana. A sec- ond debate was held between Mr. M. Stanton Evans, chairman of the American Conservative Union, and former Representative AUart K. Lowenstein, past chair- man of Americans for Democratic Action. The subject of this second debate was Resolved: that Richard Nixon has dangerously cxlcnded the war powers of the presidency. In addition to the debate series, USA also ran a suc- cessful speakers ' program. For example, USA brought Rev. Leon H. Sullivan to Princeton to speak on the sub- ject of Black Capitalism, an area in which he has had per- sonal dealings for over twenty years. In December, USA sponsored a speech by Professor Milton Friedman of the University of Chicago on th(! subj(!ct of the energy crises and the free market.

Over ten thou- sand peoph? a year take advantage of the opportunity to have undergraduate volunteers share their knowhrdge and enthusiasm about th(! University. In addition to iden- tifying buildings and their uses, guides explain to visitors the historical aspects of the University and describe from personal experience what life at Princeton is like. Tours are designtHl to meet the special needs of the group, for visitors range from prospective; students and their fam- ilies, interested in admissions procedures and the aca- demic environment, to foreign visitors seeking an ex- ample of an American University, to historical societies paying a visit tf) the site of a Revolutionary War battle and to Nassau Hail with its historical significance. While tours are the primary activity of the Orange Key, we ri;present much more. Staffing an Information Office in Stanhope Hall, we distribute campus maps. University Announcements, and other m.iterial to the many persons who stop in each day. Members of the (Juidi- Service pro- vide assistance to the administration and Alumni Council at .several of their functions. One forum for applicant-stu- dent conversations is the informal discussion .session held by guides in the Admissions Office each afternoon. Our primary concern is the prospective student. As one of the few persons at Princeton with whom an applicant has the possibility of talking, the undergraduate guide en- counters both a valuable opportunity and a great rrsponsibility. MV, For m.iiiy I ' linccUm sliuli-iils. tlic Sliiilcnl V ' olimlccrs Council adds an important and unique dimension lo Iheir four years at the university. By offering} I ' rini.elon sin- dents an opportunity to take part in and direct .1 wide va- riety of social service profjrams, S.V.C. fills the need on the p.irt of many to involve themselves in a world i)eyond the confines of the Princeton campus. Hy participalin}- in the pro rams. students share their time and energy with people jjenuinely in need of their aid, and come in con- tact with people whose hackjjrounds ami attitudes may contrast hugely with their own. In c ach of the projjrams, the S.V.C. stresses strong interpersonal relationships be- tween the volunteers and the people with whom they work. All in all. the Student Volunteers Council coordinates twelve programs in the Princeton-Trenton arcM. The groups ' activities range from tutoring disadvantaged youngsters in a Trenton elementary school, to working with patients in a state psychiatric hospital, to counsel- ling in a New [jTsey prison. All of the programs are staffed entirely by Princeton students and are dirdcteid by student project heads in consultation with the student coordinators and with the S.V.C. advisor. Dean Chrisman. This year the S.V.C. has tried to move forward in three primary areas: first, to devcdop methods of examining programs currently in operation and to evaluate such programs ' benefits, both for Princeton students and for the people with whom the students are working: second, to increase the- number of students involved in each of the programs; and thirtl, to develop new programs which will offer experiences distinctly different from thos(? of- fered by programs already in existence. Within the past year three new programs have already been initiated. In one Princeton students are involved as counselors in a Planned Parenthood Center of Trenton, in another as teachers and guardians of an Infant Day Care Center in Trenton, and in a third as companions and teachers in the geriatrics ward of Princeton Hospital.

The line at the top of this article is provided so that you can write in th(! name which h,is by now. we hope, been decided on. The first small singing group at Princeton to include both men and women, the Group performed music of all kinds, trying to achieve a balance between classical and popular numbers. Rehearsals were characterized by hard work, sporadic giggling, and some of the best back-rubs in New Jersey. The Group sang for the candlelight Christ- mas service in the Chapel and performed in many arch sings, where they never failed to overwhelm the crowd with their rendition of Snap, Crackle, Pop (one of the most demanding works in the literature).

Its the Princeton University Glee Club in its lOOIh sea- son: and there are as many different reasons for being a part of it as there are members. 147 The Princeton University Orchestra is primarily an or- ganization to give musicians a chance to play together and to maintain proficiency upon their instruments. Anyone who plays well on an orchestral instrument and who will be conscious of the responsibility of mem- bership in the orchestra can join. Auditions are usually held in the beginning of the year during orientation week. The orchestra is open not only to the members of the Uni- versity, but also to players from the surrounding neighborhood. The orchestra gives four concerts a year. A samph; pro- gram of one of our concerts would be the following: Stra- vinsky ' s Symphonies of Wind Instruments, Mozart ' s Sin- fonia Concertante in E-flat Major for Violin and Viola. K. 364, and Schubert ' s Great Symphony No. 9. In addition, a smaller ensemble plays in the Theatre Intime opera productions. Last year the Opera ensemble played Be- atrice and Benedick by Berlioz, and in March, 1974, it played the Rape of Lucretia by Britten. Finally, the or- chestra sponsors a Concerto Competition, open to any musician, and for the first time in spring. 1974, a Con- ductor ' s Competition to give students a chance to con- duct programs. The Princeton Orchestra has rehearsals twice a week, Sunday and Tuesday evenings. The magic of these re- hearsals lies in the dedication and concentration of our players. Although rehearsals are not really social events, we all know each other quite well. It is great fun to play with friends, and many of us not only play together in or- chestra, but also have chamber music with group meet- ings during the week. In addition, we play with the Glee Club for their concerts. Naturally, music takes up a large part of our time because we must also practice and take lessons. Being a member ol the orchestra molivates many to take lessons and to become more dedicated musicians. Of course, orchestral experience constitutes an invalua!)lc part of the musical education available at Princeton, for it stresses the problems encountered in the performance of music, an experience indispensable in total musical appreciation. Some of us are going into the musical field, bul ni.iny h.ivr olhci ' iiilci ' i ' sis as well. I. lor one. am a pre-nicd. In addition to all these musical activiti(!s, some of our orchestra members are prepared and willing to give les- sons to those less advanced. In this way we can encour- age the continued progress upon an instrument of those who cannot afford lessons at normal rales. Thi ' University Chapel Choir has two fac(!s. The first is th«? impressive, imposing, intimidating aura surrounding its reputation of being one of the most selective singing groups on campus. I know I was afraid even to consider trying out for the choir after I had read and heard about its awesome superiority. There are stories about all the graduates of Oberlin. Peabody. and [uilliard who are members of the choir. Even the brochure the choir u.sed to send out placed its emphasis upon possibilities for solo work in the Sunday offertories and upon the chances for all members to study voice. My fears were relegated to their proper place in my thinking by the pageantry and beauty of the Opening Exercises. The Chapel itself was impressive enough to compel me to give it a try. Now being in the choir has given me a different per- spective, and I can read the second face of the choir— its personality. It has definitely a lot of talent, but its big singers are also wonderful people. The choir is small enough to allow me to get to know almost everyone, if I ' m willing to make the effort. And there is always a feel- ing of accomplishment, because each week the choir works on and performs a new piece of music. Each ser- vice is like a mini-performance: thus, the choir is always psyched up on Sunday morning, which is a hard thing to do after a Saturday night in Princeton! The variety and beauty of the music available, from the fifteenth to the twentieth century, is unreal. So much inspiring music has been written for religious functions that the repertoire is unfathomable. The .setting of the Chapel itself ailds such a distinct air of splendor to the service that, even after two years in the choir. I still find the Chapel an awe-in- spiring building. All in all. the choir is a rich and reward- ing experience, blending artistic achievement with friendship ind with the C hurch. What can you say ahoul Ihc fx ' st iiand in ihc Ixics?

Stani:. Tcchnwul Dintctur Working at Theatre Intimi; is wonderi ' ul, horrible, re- warding, and frustrating. Intime is unique among all other college theatres in that students do all the work: planning the season, scheduling, maintenance (which sometimes includes scrubbing floors), financing produc- tions, improvements, acting, many times directing, plus everything else that goes into putting on a full season of shows. Since the time that I first walked into Murray Theatre (September, 1972), I myself have acted, stage managed, done tech and light design, become producer— in other words, have had the opportunity to participate in every aspect of running a theatre. Intime involves many levels of participation; some people; become completely immersed in Intime, others drop by to help out. For the privilege of calling the bowels of Murray Theatre my second home. I have had to become used to doing school work at 3 a.m., working all night on stage, and solving seemingly impossible prob- lems. Intime ' s rewards, however, far outnumber its in- conveniences. People work at Intime for the pride of seeing their own work on display and in use, for the ap- plause of an audience, and for the joy of working with people and getting to know them. The cast and crew of a show are made up of people bound together with one common goal, people that are learning to work together and to accept each other ' s failings. Never has a place filled me personally with so much terror, or taught mc so much responsibility, or given me as much satisfaction as has this theatre. J This year, we are running a total of ten productions, of which most are directed by undergraduates, while some are produced by other theatre groups. The Lover. Ailap- (ci(ion Next.

All in all. I think lh.it the theatre is a magical place, but it rct|uir(s a lot oi work to make it so. The learning that goes on in Murray Theatre has givcm people a scn.se of pride and has even produced opportunities for jobs fol- lowing graduaticm. but. most of .ill. it h.is been the center of .1 lot of fun. kalhie shenlon. executive prodiicir I suppose I could write the standard article about the- ater groups: how the feeling of togetherness on a closing night or the strange experience of all night tech calls is what makes it all worthwhile. This, of course, is certainly part of Triangle, but it is not what sets it apart. Triangle is also 85 years of tradition. The tradition may take several years to comprehend, and some people never do com- prehend it, but it is there and exercises its influences. This tradition was brought home to me most pow- erfully earlier this year. As undergraduate officers. Steve James, Helene Rogers and I attended a meeting with the Triangle board of trustees at the Princeton Club of New York. Steve and I were in the elevator with Sandy Max- well ' 39, Freddy Fox ' 39, and two other alumni, one about 70 and his father who was perhaps 90. As they were leav- ing the elevator the older one turned to me (I was wear- ing my Triangle pin) and asked whether I was in the Tri- angle Club. I said that I was and he answered, I was the manager of Triangle in 1903, and left. Just in case that wasn ' t enough to impress upon me a feeling for the awe- some traditions within Triangle, we then entered the meeting to find that Josh Logan ' 31 had made time in his schedule to attend this meeting. Fortunately such tradition does not prevent us from ex- ercising our creativity. One of the posters we use to ad- vertise our Freshman Shows has the come-on blurb, We ' re growing— so are you. That ' s fairly standard fresh- man week fare, but at least the claim that We ' re grow- ing is not without its justification. For example, with a little push from Brian Kremen this year, we produced our second fall workshop. In fact, we chose for our efforls You ' re A Good Man, Charlie Brown, written by one of our own alumni, Clark Gesner ' 60. Like our production of The Fantasticks in the Princeton Inn theater last fall. Charlie Brown entered a room and crcilcd .i Ihr.ilci. With University-financed material and wilii our Icchni- cal staff ' s labor, we converted Room 01, 185 Nassau Street, from a grade school auditorium to a respectable thrust stage. The Princeton Gilbert Sullivan Society produced Once Upon A Mattress right after we loaded out; thus, with some justification we can claim to have helped to establish a new theater on campus, available to anyone interested in doing a show. Fall ' 73 also saw the rebirth of Triangle Juniors. Juniors is the theatrical equivalent of the Footnotes or the Tiger- lilies. A company of 12 can perform selections of the best material from past Triangle shows in a brief show suit- able for club parties and the like. Helene Rogers, along with Frank Runyeon, invested the initial organizational effort, and the Juniors, rechristened the Triangle Ding Show, opened to a packed audience at Quincy House in Cambridge for Harvard Weekend. Still, the main focus of the fall was the Christmas tour. In 1971 we had changed our calendar so that we pro- duced an original show for Houseparties weekend and then restaged it for tour the following Christmas. Clark Gesner and I were talking about this new policy at our last trustees ' meeting, and we both agreed that it allowed us to produce a better show for tour. Basically, Clark felt that w(! now knew b(?forehand what was or wasn ' t of value in the show and so were able to correct any flaws before- taking it on tour. Future Schlock, for instance, was short on music, and by cutting some of the weaker skits, we ended up with a shorter show that was stronger musi- cally. An additional consequence of our first producing the show during Reunions was that we were now selling to Alumni Associations a known product— certainly an advantage from a business point of vi(;w. By the time this book goes to press the new spring show will be rehearsing and we might e -( ' n have enough iii.iteri.il for a firsl act. liul Ih.it is .mother Triangle With only one full season under its belt, the McCarter professional company must still bo said to be in the ex- perimental stages. The first season had its flaws, and many of these have been corrected for the second season. However, the company still has a long way to go before it can claim to be an established voice in contemporary the- ater. Furthermore, if the University is genuinely com- mitted to bringing topflight theater to Princeton, it must be prepared to continue supporting McCarter through the necessary development period. The development must come principally in the areas of artistic direction and general management. I ' hc mosl criici.il ilccision Ihiil McC ' .iirtcr miisl m.ikc iir- tislically concerns Ihc type of Ihoiitcr it wishes to nipro- sont. Will McCarter be a classical repertory company or an experimental theater or some particular mix of the two? The play selections of the Committee on Theater for the first two seasons are indicative of some indecision or perhaps some searching for an acceptable conc(!plion of McCarter s purpose. The crux of the issue seems to be Ihc need to strike a balance between retaining McCarters traditionally conservative Princeton audience and estab- lishing McCarter as a significant voice in theater. Last year ' s The Tooth of Crime!, for example, despite its criti- cal success, managed to alienate a significant proportion of the subscribers that McCarter needs for its financial survival. This year ' s play selections seem to be much bet- ter geared to gradually easing their audiences into the mainstream of contemporary theater, as opposed to last year ' s attempts to modernize the interests of McCarter ' s audiences in one giant leap. In contrast to these efforts at change, perhaps because theater has always been characterized as a fine art, the techniques of modern management science are making only the slowest of inroads into theater management. McCarter. in particular, has been operating with eyes shut to the time- and money-saving tc chniques deemed imperative for efficiency by modern business. Last year it attempted to economize by negotiating its union contract to require a minimum number of union technicians. However, it then spent far more during the production of Agamemnon in overtime pay for those; union tiichnicians than would have been necessary had several addtional stagehands been hired and the job been accomplished without overtime. Unfortunately, it seems something in the nature of custom has dictatinl that producing a show requires technicians working all night. ev(;ry night during the week before opening night. Consequently. McCarter has encountered problems this year in rcjgard to overtime pay and overtime work and yet seems to be ignoring all warnings. The University may reevaluate its current pol- icy of subsidizing McCarter if McCarter does not presently eliminate the managerial causes of its deficits. There is a feeling at McCarter that all are very talented, even in some cases among the very best in the business. This talent has indeed shown itself intermittently over the last two years. What is needcrd is time so that the re- quircid artistic leadership can d(!velop to a corresponding degree in order to make use of this available talent. Therefore, the University must give McCarter time to make its mistakes before .settling upon a final evaluation. |im mcgee quotes and traditions . . . indcipcndnnccV-thcses . . . coeducation and freshman heralds . . . pictures, photoj - raphers, one hundred sixty pages . . . one gold die. one typist ... a group of people, an expression of ideas ... a new name, an old style ... the nassau herald ... 648 versus 320 . . . our book, yours, communication, a tele- phone . . . cathy and candy . . . myriad h( ' adat;hes . . . hastles, weariness, inspiration, triumph . . . the 1974 bric- a-brac.

There is no question that many of the cus- toms that once dominated campus life have be- come extinct, and that the Princeton of today is vastly different in mores and customs from the Princeton of old remembered by so many dums. and that many graduates sincerely feel that the Princeton of old has died, leaving noth- ing comparable! to take its place. It is no small wonder that so many feel this way. and that so very many can feel completely alienated from today ' s Princeton. Accoriling to A. G.

Although unwrit- ten laws, these customs xv.rv. a cherished |)art of Princeton tradition, and it was stressed that anyont! (mtering hv. campus community for the first time would, of course, desire to observe laws: this voluntary observance, of course, was well enforced by he upperclassmen. The tradi- tions of the old Princeton life thus emerge in a pattern, where; the younger classes, dominated by the old. stick together for moral support, thus creating an (Miiluring class solidarity. Although the customs have changed in particulars throughout the years, and although many of the_ memories the old alums cherish of their Princeton passed into mcimory long before the advent of today ' s younger generation, thi- con- cept of customs still dictated a large part of the life style of undergr.iduatr life. .1 p.irt of c.niipus life now missing. Perhaps the most conspicuous facet of cus- tom and nostalgia revolves around the habits of dress. These have undergone the most drastic and observable changes of any once established customs. For example, Donald W. Griffin ' 23 writes of the customs existing on campus when he arrived as a freshman in 1919: Until thv. [bird Saturday in May, the reguJation headdress for fresh- men is a bJack skuiJ cap. After that date siraw hats may be worn. Freshmen should not wear college colors in any form. . . . one small item that may help you bridge the gap between the old Princeton and the new Princeton. This is fact. At the June meeting of the National Alumni Association in 1949, a small ceremony took pioce. The President of the class of 1899 turned over a scroll of greet- ings to the custody of the President of the class of 1949 with the solemn instructions that he, in turn, present it on the some occasion in 1999 to the President of that senior class.

These iire only some ol the customs th.it re- voked around the conci pt ot chess. Cd(Min Perry ' 2(i writes to describes these customs in even more ch tail. For instance, there v( re some; ways for unih ' rjiraduatf ' s to get around these; n stric- fing traditions. For ( xamph;, in his day, only three years later, freshmen were required to wear small black b(!anies only until Christmas vacation, unless, of course, the football ttuim shoukl beat Yale, in which case they could be discarded, along with black shoes, as the game; ended. Also, should the freshmcm succeed in de- feating sophomores in cane spree, coats and ties as a criterion of everyday dress could legiti- mately be discarded. The list of other customs, all centering around the concept of class prerogatives, extends ad in- finitum. Some of the more choice of fh(!se oth- ers are the following: Freshmen should not smoke on tbe streets or on campus. Playino football or basebidl on tbe campus is for )ici(i(;;i (o fr(;slifii(. ' i. Freshmen are not expected to walk on Prospect Avenue, McCosh Walk or the walk in front of Nas- sau Hall. This applies at all times including days of gomes. Seniority of class determines the possession of the sidewalk. There- fore, freshmen are expected to get off the walk for every c ass and for members of the faculty.

The final Iradilions center around grad One of the most revered of thesi; customs in early 190() ' s was the private cup cereme when the scmior class s.it around in a ciicle ii front of Nassau Hall and sang to each membe by name while he drank from a loxing t;u|) Then. lat(-r at graduation, the gates of Nass.ii lion. 1 the )n ' fiall, kept closed throughout the ' ear, ver(! opcmed up to allow the scmior class to pass out into the waiting world. We have seen these old customs go by the boards and n(nv ones crop up. We have heard the cry of the alumni mourning the passing of tradition at Princeton. The old ways are gone; Princeton ' s just not the same. Why can ' t we bring back the old Princeton? Well, is tradition really dead at Princeton, in view of the fact thai these customs are no long(M- in existence, or do most of us simph ' ha ' e a misconception of what tradition is? Is tradition building victory bonfires, singing on the steps beneath an archway, or trying to steal the bell clapper during fr(!shman week? Certainly all these things have been and in some cases still are a genuine part of Princ( ton. bul th(n ' are not tradition in the real sense of th( word. Our g(meration has learned to hate this word tradition, after being beaten over the head with it since we wcu-e childrcMi. We don ' t appr( - ciat(; the same things: we don ' ! ha ( ' the same attitudes.

If is fh(! attitude that Princeton takes to- wards work, towards life, towards ihv. universe, it is the principles upon which the university was found(!d and still stands. It is the very foun- dation of this place, that which has survived all Ihv. strains of time. It is our heritage. All the ancient ceremonies and rites are part of that heritage, of Princeton ' s tradition, but th( y are only trappings and symbols. And new symbols always come- along to give vitality to concepts and principles. In this sense we can think of tradition as something that needs con- tinual refreshing. We must try not to dust off memories and labed them as tradition, because they are not. They are real, important, but in th(! past. That Princf ton does not do the same things in the same way as even ten yj ars ago is a sign of chang(!. yes. but also of refreshed tradi- tion.

Indeed when the Presbyterian church tried to take over Princeton, Princeton refuscui to yield control; Princeton would rimiain non-sectarian. In 1812 Princ(!ton ' s support from the Presbytery was cut off. And in 1H:Z4 Princeton Seminary was founded. Princeton ' s tradition has also been a radical one, a notion that surely sounds anomalous to one who thinks of Princeton as a bastion of es- tablish(!d conservatism. In the national struggle for independence Princeton was known as one of the hotbeds of the R( volution. President John VVitherspoon was the colhigc; president to sign the Declaration of Ind(!pend(mce. It ' s nice to know Princeton men fought for ind(!pen- dence while the Tories at Yah; were gorging themselves on plum pudding. A c(!rtain renegade spirit, an ind(!pendence, has always been part of the Princ( t()n tradition. We could turn to a somewhat trite pag( in our history — when President Samucd Stanhope Smith expedlcd George Washington ' s son. But the significant independence of Princeton lies in th(! freedoms she has retained: (1) the right to choose her own faculty, (2) the right to choose h(;r own students, and, (3) the right to establish her own curriculum. Princeton has always dis- tinguished herself as an innovator, as an in- stitution that will mov(! without being prodded on by outside pressures. We must not forget the Princeton in the; na- tion ' s service, the Princeton that has spawned scores of governmtmt and business leaders. This aspect of Princeton ' s tradition is still very much alive. Whiil (Iocs triulition mciin for the lJniv(!i ' sity? It nil ' , ins security, a sense? that what we are will continue to iivi ' and thrive. And them if mtians a w illinonoss to take risks: Princeton can try now things, gamble and ( ven lose. She will survive. Tradition means chin, a c(!rtain unity of spirit, of purpose. It means continuity. Princeton ' s continuity is wrapptul up in uniqueness. We are the smallest major univer- sity in the world. Few univ(!rsiti(;s have, as we have, a single faculty for undergraduates and graduates. There is Princeton ' s unique residen- tial community, and her truly unique social life. Seldom does one find a campus so self-con- tained. Everything at Princ(!ton has been main- tained at human proportions. Small colk ge— major university. And there is PrinctMon ' s honor syst(!m, some- thing we can n(!V(!r tak(! too lightly. New stu- dents may not think it so startling that (!xams are unproctored, but stop and think about the tremendtjus responsibility this puts on the stu- dents ' shoulders. How has coeducation affecteil the tradition of Princeton? Of coursr if we languish in th( nar- row, simply nostalgic Princciton dreamworld, womtm destroy our image. Bui if we acc(!pt tra- dition for what it really is. we can only say that coeducation has enriched the tradition. We are now a valid residential community, fully in k(!(!ping with the; original charliM-learned edu- cation for our youth, not just for our boys. As long as alumni try to hold onto their shal- low sense of tradition. they ar(! only ch luding th( ' mselves. They might take comfort that a few students are still dwcdling in the old Princeton. But that lif(! style will ncner be the dominant oni! again. Thank God. because many of us would n(!V(;r be at Princeton if Princeton were the way it usiid to be. We who know the real tradition of Princ(!ton constantly see that tradi- tion rtnnforced and refr eshinl with growth and with change. What we are arguing for. then, is a new. healthy, ultimately honest way of looking at Ir.i- dition. We join alumni in saluting Princeton ' s rich past: we ev(;n jump in and revel in some of th(! old customs. But at the sann time we do not mourn that PrinccMon is new. for the new Princ(;t()n is exciting, vibrant. .ili e. And really it is not all that new: we ha { ' to agree with |.

P or bla(;k and other Third World people, the scheduling of a debate over their possible gen- etic and intellectual inferiority was a source of great anguish as well as of anger: an affront to their dignity and worth as individuals: in es- sence, a mere mask of so-called intellectualism and a pervt rsion of the pursuit of truth.

Princeton ' s lowest ebb in Ivy history, left it far behind Harvard and Yale, well back of resurgent Brown-yes. ihdl Brown— and even a game off the torrid pace set by a pathetically anemic Columbia squad, whose coach an- nounced at midseason that he would resign immediately after the final game. Unlike seasons past, there was no Big Mud Machine imagery to salvage any semblance of a respectable record. Even Downpour, the god of New Jersey ' s climate, turned his back on the Tigers. There was no measurable precipitation at five of the six home games, and at the sixth, only incessant drizzle punctuated by a single cloudburst, not the all-day cascades of water which had turned the field into a quagmire tailored to the team ' s bail-control attack in years gone by. Instead. Casciola and his players were bequeathed high-speed winds that had much to say about strategy in several games. The Tigers began the campaign with high, if under- standably guarded, hopes for a winning season. As step one of the long overdue rebuilding program, the coaches had installed a Houston Veer offense and a Tennessee Bubble defense. But by late October, more than one dis- gruntled alumnus was suggesting that perhaps Tennes- see ' s offense and Hf)Uslon ' s woeful defense had been mistakenly copied instead. The Veer ran aground rather than over ground. The Bubble loo often burst. The net re- sult: the worst record in all of the university ' s 104 years of intercollegiate football competition. A growing number of students began to wish Princeton and Rutgers had kept to baseball in 1869 after all. And yet it was far from Princeton ' s worst team in terms of personnel.

He was tackled inside the ten and, when Dartmouth scored moments later, the decision was effectively out of reach. Even in its lone victory, the 1973 team could not in- dulge in unrequited celebration, as a series of injuries to key linemen took the edge off the joy of a 37-21 pasting of a highly-regarded Colgate team. The Tiger offense clicked as it wouldn ' t again all season, putting 31 points on the scoreboard in the first 20 minutes. The very next week, there came the shutout ilefeal by the Quakers.

It had a new coach. Bill Muse; from Harlwick College, at aj c twenty-six the youngest class A coach in the Unile l States. The Tigers employed a new formation, using four backs and two mid-fielders instead of the more conven- tional three backs and three mid-field(!rs. Muse had a basically young and inexperienced team and began the sea.son by starting eight sophf)mores in the season opener at Lafayette. And, most important of all. the 1973 edition, led by captain Dallas Dixon ' 74. had fun for a change. The results were astounding. The Tigers produced a 7- 2-3 mark and a comm« ' ndabie fifth place Ivy League fin- ish behind NCAA tourney teams Brown. Penn. Cornell, and Yale. Against those four teams and Harvard, the boosters scored 3 goals and gave up ( in compari.son with 3 and 24 last year. Those .statistics indicate a drastic defensive improve- ment, which was led by first team ALL-IVY .selection and tr-am MVP-back Sieve Tobolsky ' 76 and HQNORABLH MENTKJN picks Marc Sobel 74 and goalkeeper Paul Helfenstein ■7fi. The Tiger defense allowed just 14 goals in 12 gamc;s with the exciting Helfj-nstein and [im Cor- sonis sporting a 1.17 goals-againsi average. Other soph backs Bill Exiey and Bruce Smith added solid support whim it was needed. The midfield was sparked by Captain Dixon, a three- year varsity starter. Tom Donley 7. and little Eric Solo- mon ' 7 . The offense w.is blessed by ihi ' presence of speedy soph |im Hansen, a first team .ALL-IVY pick and one of thn league ' s top scorers. The leading forward on the 1972 frosh team, Hansen lived up to expectations by tallying 9 goals and 1 assist to lead the team with 10 points. Seniors Steve Dugan, John Robinton and Chip Caine played well, combining for 8 goals and 5 assists. With seven out of eleven starters returning in 1974, the Tigers will surely be a legitimate title contender next f.dl. The Princeton Frosh completed another fine season un- der Coach Don Betterton. He guided the yearlings to a 7- 3-2 mark, including victories over Yale (3-1), Harvard (1- 0) and Navy (2-1), while two of the losses were to junior college powerhouse Mercer County Community (3-2) and to Penn (4-0), whose freshman teams haven ' t lost a game in five years. Defense, as with the varsity, was the high- light, led by co-captain backs Tom Christie and Marc Goldrosen, and goahe Sergio Zeballos. The leading scorer was Tom Beaton, who tallied 10 points on 6 goals and 4 assists. With a tough, experienced forvvarii pack retuiniiif , ami with certain rookie backs eager to take the phices of de- parted seniors, the ruggers set out to continue the win- ning traditions of Campbell Gerrish ' s ' 72-73 team. Co- captains Ramsay and Singleton drove the team hard from the beginning as they had but two weeks to prepare for the opening weekend of matches. Despite their hurried preparation, the A team ruggers rolled to a convincing 17- 13 victory over Rutgers before a paying crowd on Fre- linghuysen Field. The A ' s were supported by the hard running of backs Habicht and Cassady and by the devas- tating rucking and tackling of Singleton, Johnson and Es- piritu. The very next day, led by the running of Thorlax- son and the placekicking of Stone, the Tiger A s continued their line of success with a victory over Villa- nova 19-7. In contrast, the B s, woefully inexperienced in the backs, could only tie Rutgers at 4-4 and lost to Vil- lanova at 10-4, despite the efforts of emerging rookies Yeo and Peebles. Competition encountered by the ruggers continued to be rough. Two experienced Columbia Busi- ness School teams threw a scare into both the A and B teams before the games ended in favor of Princeton: 18-10 in the A game, 12-4 in the B game. The next weekend, in sunny Doylestown, both A ' s and B ' s enjoyed breathers as they rolled over Blackthorne, 19-6 and 10-3, respectively. Habicht scored a hat trick for the A ' s while Frank Mittel- burg exhibited his great endurance by playing two games: at wing for the A ' s and at standoff for the B ' s. The following weekend saw the Tigers return to Princeton for a clash with EPRU juggernaut Whitemarsh. The A team stood strong, but not strong enough to prevent a 16-12 loss. Meanwhile, the B ' s, led by Chaires, Yeo and the plucky Hill, rolled to a 16-3 victory. Looking for an easy win over Penn following Whitemarsh, Princeton ' s A ' s were surprised by the accurate goal-kicking of Penn ' s fly- half and lost 12-11, while the B ' s coasted to their fourth win in a row, 24-4. The loss against Penn inspired the Tigers to play a great game against th(! big, rough First Troop club. The vast improvement in the Tigers ' playing came in the su- p(!rior rucking of the Princeton pack, while backs Garra- brant. Taylor, and Yeo made good use of the ball won for them by the forwards. Unfortunately, the Tigers weren ' t able In recover from their post-game celebrations in time to beat Harrisburg the next day, and lost in a wretched performance 3-0. With only the Big Three matches left to transform a mediocre season into a good one, the Prince- ton ruggers settled down to play their best rugby of Ihc season. Undaunted by the icy winds coming off Ihc Charles, both A ' s and B ' s trounced the Cantabs by nearly identical scores, 26-0 and 27-0, respectively. Led by Gore;, Redgrave, and Philo, the forwards kept Princeton in con- stant posse.ssion of the ball, while the crimson lielriulcrs were no match for the speedy Chaires, Yeo. and ■i ' iiiiil,i son. Garrabrant kept the ball moving freely b(!tw( en his forwards and backs. The B ' s hnl by flanker-turn(;d- winger D ' Andrea were equally devastating. The follow- ing week, the Tigers clinched the; Big Tiircc lillc ag.iinsl Yale and their highly touted wingiM ' , Coicv ( J ' loiinson. winning 31-12 in the A game and 12-0 in the H game. Following each game the dulcet tones of Al Slonc could be heard leading the Tigers in song. This same Alan Stone served as President of the Rugliy Club, and was aided by wheeling dealing Monte Garrabrant. the smooth talking Hank Habicht, and the stalwart keeper of the jocks, Paul Bell. The efforts of Pirelli ' 69 were of great service to the captains and the team. The ruggers are spending their winter in gleeful antici- pation of the visit of Coach Ron Tennick, and of a tour of the London area this spring. li lieton Opponents !7 Rutgers 13 21 Viilanov.i 7 18 (Columbia Busine„ss in 19 Blackthorne RFC 7 12 Whitemarsh RFC 16 11 Penii 12 18 First Troop RFC 4 3 Harrisbury —..k . 26 30 v:,:: i m Unlike most of the other fall sports, the women ' s field hockey team not only tallied a victorious 9-4-1 season record, but also captured the Ivy League Big Three cham- pionship for the second year in a row. The team began the year with a promising crop of freshmen who caused members of last year ' s champion- ship squad to scramble to keep their positions. The fresh- men ended by filling a number of vital spots and contrib- uted some 15 goals which added to the spirit of the team. After suffering an early loss at the hands of the Univer- sity of Pennsylvania on the astroturf at Philadelphia, the Tiger team trounced both Moravian and Douglass, scor- ing 18 goals in two consecutive days. Losses in the next two away games constituted what Coach Merrily Dean termed a mid-season slump, when a psyched-up Lafay ette team and traditional powerhouse Trenton State proved to be too strong for the bus-weary, midterm minded Tigers. The team broke even, 1-1-1. in three 30 minute matches at the all-college tournament in Glass boro and proceeded to pull in victories during midterm; in a dark and muddy Temple game and in a routine match against Temph; before facing its archrivals Rad cliffe and Yale. 1973 WOMEN ' S FIEL Princeton Pennsylvania Moravian Douglass Lafayette Trenton Stall Wm.

Tho 1973 Princolon cross country team, co-caplninrd by Chris Elliot and Andy Rulnirt, was predicted to bo the finest in Princeton history-at least according to paper statistics. It boasted ei jht returninj iettermen from List year ' s NC;AA Championship and Bi Three Champion learn. Yet. due to untimely injuries to junior standout Laree Trachlenbers (injuries forcing him to miss the en- tire season ' s campaign) and to captain Andy Riihert, the harriers failed this year to deirnd Ihcir title m Cambridge. Without a doubt, the finest team performance of th(! season was exhibited before the twelve entrants in the New Jersey College Championships. Princeton won hand- ily as the Tigers swept seven of the first eleven places. In- dividual winner Ron Van der Kraats led the romp. Only three days later, however, the harriers, still recovering from the costs of their gruelling New jersey State meet victory, finished a disappointing fourth in the Heptagonal Championships. Although later qualifying for the NCAA Championships by taking sixth place from among the forty-two teams (mtered in the IC4A me(!t. Princciton was financially unable to make; the long trip to Spokane. Washington. Instead, the Tigers w(!re repr(;sented in Spo- kanr; solely by sophomore ace Ron Van der Kraats on the strength of his spectacular seventh place individual fin- ish in the NCAA meet, highest ever achieved by a Princetonian. Overall, the Tiger harriers compiled a 7-2 sea.son record. Convincing victories resounded over Rutg(!rs. Fordham, Yale, and Columbia. Particularly staunch in the assuranc(; of these victories stood Van der Kraats, s(;nior Bob Bazley and junior Billy Mahon. Many surprise pluses were appended by freshman flash John Cabell and by hard-charging junior Ron Bunnell. And of course, veteran co-captains Andy Rubert and Chris Elliot demon- strated throughout the season the leadership and tough- n(!.ss teammates had learned to expect. The varsity basketball team, plagued by bad luck and injuries in the latter half of the season, struggled to stay above .500 through most of a puzzling, frustrating 1973-74 campaign. As the Tigers, sporting a lackluster 11-10 record, traveled to Darmouth in mid-February to begin their home stretch, it appeared likely they w ould finish no better than 16-11, for the team ' s poorest showing since 1970-71. It was not to be a year for post-season tournament bids. As the squad dwindled in size to nine healthy bodies at times, Princeton found itself in an unaccustomed position in the Ivy League standings: third with a 5-3 record be- hind 7-1 co-leaders Pennsylvania and Brown. Pen n, win- ner of four consecutive Ivy League championships, had twice knocked off Princeton and was rolling towards an unpredictable fifth straight Ivy title. But one incredible weekend in Providence, Rhode Island upset the old bal- ance of power. On succe.ssive nights, the surprising Bruins stunned the; Tigers and the Quakers. A ragged col- lection of hot-shooting, undisciplined playground play- ers. Brown left Princeton battered and searching for an- .swers. Following the 64-59 overtime defeat. Tiger coach Pete Carril in a rare moment of reflection said, We ' ve lost ten games already-that ' s a lot of games for a Princc;- ton team to lose. Life was easier for Carril back in De cember. With a line-up dominated by sophomore talent from last year ' s 15-3 freshman team, the Tigers rolled to three easy wins on a stingy defense that allowed Fordham and Navy just 44 points apiece. As of Valentine ' s Day, Princeton was still ranked seventh in the nation in defense, yielding an average of 61 points per game. Sophomore Armond Hill. a 6-5 product of the New York City schoolyards, quickly assumed the mantle of leadership left by graduate Ted Manakas, departed for the NBA. Polished playmaker Hill, oblivious to the fanfare heralding his arrival, averaged 12.5 points a game and electrified crowds with his cool dribbling, pesky defense, and dazzling steals. Hill ' s back- court mate from the freshman squad a year ago, savvy Mickey Steuerer, averaged nearly ten points a game and blistered the nets on 10 for 11 shooting in the losing effort against Brown. The duo directed the Tigers ' deliberate, no-non.sense offense, characterized by pinpoint passing to hit the open man. 6-7 sophomore forward Barni ' s Hauptfuhrer combined with center and captain Andy Ki- mol to give Princeton board strength, while senior [oe Vavricka, the Ivies ' second leading field goal shooter at 54.3 per cent last year, started at the other forward spot. During the Christmas break the squad participated in the Jayhawk Classic at Lawrence, Kansas, losing to Paci- fic Eight Conference leader Oregon by a point in a con- test which saw Hill score a season-high 26 points, and edging Washington State in double overtime. Princeton returned to enter the ECAC Holiday Festival at Madison Square Garden and placed fourth, trouncing Duquesne and losing to St. John ' s and LaSalle. During the festival, high-leaping, 6-5 forward Bob Slaughter pushed Vavricka out of the starting five, and the cagers seemed ready to give Penn a good fight at Jad- win Gym. But the Quakers, led by All-Ivy center Ron Haigler, blew Princeton off the court, 69-59, and then disaster struck. Rimol, a two-time All-Ivy selection, sus- tained a cartilage injury d uring a scrimmage. He hobbled around on the court against Harvard, his right leg heavily bandaged, for just three minutes before going to the side- lines. However, sparked by the hot hand of reserve guard Tim Van Blommestyn coming off the bench and an 11- rebound performance by Slaughter, the Tigers put on their finest homecourt performance of the season en route to a 63-49 walloping of the Crimson. Compounding Rimol ' s injury wasihe forced retirement of backup center Bob Deist due to chronic back trouble. Junior guard Al Burton, a rarely-used reserve, also left the team for personal reasons. So the Tigers suited just nine players for Dartmouth, as Rimol watched the game in his street clothes. Princeton easily downed the Green, but lost two games to Penn State and Duke before the all-im- portant rematch with Penn at the Palestra. Slaughter didn ' t make the trip to Penn-he had come down with mononucleosis the day before. But the nine survivors made a gallant bid for a share of the Ivy League crown, inspired by the roars of the vociferous Quaker fans. While Penn coach Chuck Daly substituted freely from his talent-laden bench, the Tigers matched Penn all the way, tying the game at 65-all with a little more than a minute to play. The Quakers froze the ball for a final shot and clinched the win on Bob Bigelow ' s 20-foot jumper with three seconds left on the clock. Ten days later, Slaughter was still sick, Rimol still lacked his old mobility, and the Tigers had swamped hapless Columbia and Cornell by 40-point margins. With second place at stake, Princeton faced surging Brown be- fore another noisy crowd at the Bruins ' tiny home court. The Tigers had lost the Ivy title last year on a road trip to Brown, and now that former heartbreaking loss added to the more recent loss to Penn came back to haunt them. Having struggled back from a 37-26 halftime deficit to send the game into overtime, the Tigc rs fell to third in the Ivies when the Bruins ' Eddie Morris hit a 20-foot jumper , with, you guessed it, three seconds left to play. What j made the loss even more frustrating was Princeton ' s in-| ability to get a shot off when it had the ball for nearly a minute at the end of regulation time with the score tied at j 55. With nothing left to shoot foe, the Tigers took out their ; frustrations on a physical Yale team the next evening in New Haven. Rimol showed flashes of his old form, as he muscled in against the Yale big men for 18 points on lay- ups and short jumpers and crashed the boards for a game-high 12 rebounds. The Tiger senior led the squad in rebounding (8.0), points per game (12.9), and shooting percentage (.506). But, as Carril noted sadly. That knei- is never going to be the same. Rimol was operated on dur- ing the off-season, and his graduation leaves the squ.id without a tested pivot man. The Tigers also lose forw.inl John Berger and Vavricka to graduation.

The Captain of the Team (written, produced and performed by Jenny and the Brown Hall Harlettes). the team conspired to elect Sue Cleveland 74 to hr-r third consecutive captaincy. In addition to Captain Sue, this year ' s starters were led by Janet Youngholm ' 75. the team ' s leading scorer for their three seasons, Laura Drum- mond ' 7B, blading rebounder, pesky Missy Walrath ' 76, and freshman center Mary Jane Valby. Abby O ' Ruben- feld ' 75, Debby Banning ' 76, and Mecon Paine ' 77 pro- vided a strong bench for the varsity. Rebuilding after a disappointing first season, the junior v.irsity was captained by Beth Sanford ' 77 and included juniors Kathy Bradley, Barbara Liston. Maurya Meenan. and Moe Ling Mah: sophomore Pat Harnisch: and fresh- m(!n Peggy Smith, Wendy Johnson. Debbie Hodes. Mary Nelson, and Cacky Buck. Both teams were creditably managed by Sally Helm and Becko Cross. At the same time their health was rigorously watched and their battle inju ries competently cared for by trainer Doris Wickel. The program of women ' s basketball at Princeton re- flects the growth and development of women ' s basketball in general. As the game changed from a six-woman, lim- ited-dribble ladies game to a more competitive and physical five-woman sport, so Princeton ' s team has prog- ressed from an inexperienced group of individuals to a structured, well-balanced, and talented team. Princeton ' s fourth year of gymnastics competition re- ceived an added boost to morale through the annexation of women ' s meets. The men ' s and women ' s teams prac- ticed together throughout the year under the coaching of Merrily Dean and Joel Baba. Captains Pete Worthington and Sandy Weathers were hard pressed to inspire ex- haustive workouts combined with minimal, yet sufficient amount of nonsense. The more experienced men ' s team of this year antici- pated a creditable season due to the unexpected influx of promising freshman talent. Their high expectations were satisfied by scores in several events, led off by the com- mendable performances of Steve Evitt, Andy Holmes, and Pete Forshay in floor exercise. Subsequent high spots of the meets included the consistently laudable high bar routines thrown by Pete Worthington, the impressive achievements of Mark Clapp on both the high bar and the parallel bars, and the particularly estimable scores ob- tained by all Princeton ' s vaulting competitors. Steve Evitt 77 represented the Tigers ' sole all-around entrant, but he met success only through the staunch support of the re- mainder of the team-of Enrique Silberblatt, Scott Tay- lor, and Brian Lessing on rings, and of freshmen Richard McNally and Bill Massey in other events. u ■ ! m i i ■n 1 ■i l ' -. . :i ' -mm i w - B -M .

Even the un(;ven parallel bars spiraled upwards from its originally low ranking on the t(;am ' s roll of merit due to the efforts of Marty Paxton, [udith Ferinj ton, and Marian Staler. Both men ' s and womcm ' s f ymnaslics teams regard with foreboding the approaching graduation of th(!ir senior veterans and particularly the departure of their captains. The two teams, howtiver, can boast of an encouraging stock of underclass talent and determine to persevere in their rising scores and accompanying swell of popularity. Thus, their congenial, cooperative, and coeducational ex- ertions will continue to occupy the more elevated regions of Dillon. Known among Eastern schools as small but powerful, the Princeton women ' s swim team grew in both size and strength this year. The seven incoming freshmen, some of them ranked nationally and worldwide, doubled the size of the team and tightened its grip on one of the top positions in the East. The only major stumbling block proved to be the new freshman talent which abounded on opposing teams. Since some of the country ' s top freshman swimmers were attracted to state schools as a result of the new rulmg re- quiring equal opportunity for women in athletic scholar- ships, Princeton was indeed lucky it still managed to pull in such a fine crop of swimmers in the class of 77. Fewer but tougher, was the motto for the 1974 sea- son ' s schedule. In contrast to last year ' s overall record of 8-1 the women competed in only six meets this season before heading off to the Eastern and National championships. The season started off with an easy victory over East Stroudsburg State College, but the succeeding challenge from Monmouth struck the team with the second loss in all the history of women ' s swimming at Princeton. Monmouth had a fantastic group of freshmen, said junior Cynthia Lape. I don ' t think any of their up- perclassmen even won. Coach Bill Farley attributed the early season loss to the fact that the swimmers were not as much in shape and were not as keyed up for the meet as they could have been After the extended break he set up a separate prac- tice time for the women so that he could give them more individual attention and so that they could develop a greater sense of teamwork. Following this innovation, the prospects for the season began to look up more than ever Another easy win over Trenton State and University of Pennyslvania in a three-way meet prepared the team for its second big rival: West Chester. The team doesn ' t seem a whole lot different this year from last year, said Lape. National finalist Cathy Cor- cione continued to rake in first place laurels, which wil be missed next year after her graduation. Lape anchored the backstroke events with the help of freshmen Maeve Carr and Jane Swan, while sophomore breaststrokers Liz Osborn and Barb Franks were aided by frosh Martha Sotherland. Another pair of roommates, Betsy Morrison and team captain Carol Brown, rounded out the freestyle and butterfly events. Senior diver Cece Herron, who competed in worldwide championships, was rivaled on the low board by freshman Patti Freeman. But three freestyler.s-Cathy Tiedemann, Kathy Tester, and Nuria Otero-formed the backbone of the freshman quality, which augured many more years of Tiger prominence in women ' s swimming. 3 s Coach Bill Farley predicted that his 1974 swim team would prove to be the best team we ' ve ever had. In- deed sixteen lettermen returning from last year s Eastern championship squad, combined with ten freshmen pos- sessing phenomenal high school records, raised pre-sea- son expectations to an all-time high. It seemed fated to be the best of all possible seasons. The 1972 team had won the Ivy League championship and bowed to Yale in the Easterns. The 1973 team had suffered a humiliating loss to Dartmouth and a close de- feat at the hands of Yale, only to come back in full strength to take a soaring, exhilarating first place in the Eastern championships at West Point. The confident in- coming freshmen last fall assured their fans that 1974 was the year Princeton would take both top spots. Despite their enthusiasm and talent, the most hopeful forecasts at least were proven wrong. All went well in the early, pre-Christmas part of the season. Riding high on a wave of confidence, the Tigers whipped their first three opponents, Cornell, Villanova, and Army, by such wide margins as 68-45, 64-49, and 69- 44 respectively. After two weeks of sun and practice in Florida the swimmers regained their momentum in January for two soaring wins by even wider margins over Ivy adversaries Penn and Dartmouth.

The 1975 team ' s greatest loss due to graduation of se- niors will come in its strongest event, diving. Of its three nationally-ranked divers, both Mark Anderson and Steve Robbins will not return next fall. But the season ' s top scorer, diver Billy Heinz, will remain the diving back- bone of the team. Other graduating losses will make themselves felt in the backstroke with the graduation of )eff Bryan and cap- tain Mark Pugliese, and in the sprinting events with the departure of team comic Doug Lennox. But a good sea- son ' s recruiting promises the advent of new freshman su- perstars in Scptemb(!r.

With the score tied, diminutive junior Mark Sluckey blasttid a shipper homer with only 38 seconds to play to end th(!

At that point, the resident cynics began to reappear from the woodwork, forecasting imminent doom for the sophomore-studded Tigers. A team bent on self-di!struc- tion. decried one local newspaper during the losing streak. With key players returning from injuries, the Tigers fi- nally silenced their critics with an unprecedented stretch in which they upset eight-time Ivy charnpion Cornell, di- vision—leading Dartmouth, and archrival Yale. It was the night before the first day of fall-term exams when thf! powerful Big Red. who had crushed the title hopes of many an Ivy opponent (including Oliver Bar- rett ' s Harvard team in Love .Story), invaded Baker Rink where they hadn ' t lost in over a decade. Building to a third-period crescendo. Princeton dominated play and scored a stunning 4-1 upset, made all the more memo- rable by the countless ovations which split many an ear- drum in the arena that evening. Champagntr flovv(;d in the Princeton locker room after the Cornell game and the victory celebration was to be repeated only four days later. Playing before a wildly en- thusiastic capacity crowd, Princeton scored five early goals and weathered a late Big Green comeback to upset the East ' s lop-ranked team. Hockey madness became a benign epidemic which spread like wildfire across the campus. Tickets to Baker Rink, long taken for granted, suddenly became a scarce commodity as i crucial showdown with Harvard and a late-season drive for an ECAC playoff loomed on the schedule. For the 1973-74 Princeton hockey team, star- tling upsets, respectability in the Ivy League, and consid- eration for post-season play-rewards usually reserved for victorious opponents- were warmly welcomed back to Baker Rink. peter seldm Are you tired of having sand kicked in your face?

In a fitting end to a spectacular season, the Princeton men ' s squash team will finish at the top of the Ivy League for the first time in 17 seasons. Not since 1957 have the Tigers won the title, and even then they shared it with Harvard and Yale. This year there is a two-way tie, with Harvard and Princeton sharing the top berth. The year began explosively enough, as the racquetmen ripped Williams in the season ' s opener in Jadwin. Prince- ton dropped only one of twenty-eight games on the way to its 9-0 victory. Fordham followed several days later in a repeat of Princeton ' s 9-0 performance against Williams. During the Christmas break, the squad encountered both Franklin and Marshall (F M) and Navy. For the F M match, the squash team travelled to Lancaster where they posted their third successive victory, winning 8-1. Returning to Jadwin. the Tigers ran over Navy, 9-0. Princeton coach Bill Summers, elated with his players ' extraordinary performances against Navy, usually a tough team to beat, heralded the contest as the begin- ning of a new era of Princeton ' s squash. The new era began as did the year. Cornell, the Tigers ' next victim, fell by a score of 9-0. With the Tigers refus- ing to give up even a single game. The highlight of the season, however, came as the team travelled to Cam- bridge to face perennial national champion. Harvard. Un- beaten by Princeton since 1964, the Crimson also fell vic- tim to Princeton ' s new era. The entire match lasted almost three hours, and when it was over. Harvard was on the short end of a 5-4 score. The contest put Princeton in contention for its first solo Ivy title in history, but a trip to Philadelphia stopped short that bid. A strong Penn team powered its way past Princeton, 5-4, handing the Tigers their first and only lo.ss of the season. Princeton ' s only hope for a pifice of the title now lay in Harvard ' s beating Penn. Then the TigcMS oh tained their wish as the Crimson downtid the QuakcMS, (i- 3. Princeton finished the sea.son by berating Yale and Dartmouth, making its overall record 9-1. i 3 J  r V P ' r I Although the sport of wrestling is composed of matches between individuals, it is a team sport nonethe- less. The long hours of practice and careful weight- watching are a common experience of the many mem- bers of a team. For this reason, attitudes can very often become infectious. The determination of one or two wrestlers can spread to the rest of the team, or, if it is not checked, the despair of a few can become the downfall of the whole squad. All too often in 1973-74 Princeton wrestling ran up against obstacles which contributed to a negative team attitude. First the team was hurt by graduation; then a number of key wrestlers elected to leave school; a foot- ball injury forced premier heavyweight Karl Chandler from action; and defeats began to follow upon defeat. Head coach Johnny Johnston watched as his squad slowly shrank. By mid-season, he was left with the small- est number of wrestlers during his stay at Princeton. De- spite an inauspicious recruiting ye no less than five freshmen were pressed into service in several varsity meets. The depleted junior varsity was forced to forfeit several matches for lack of a body to fill the weight class. And compounding all the problems, the Tiger wrestlers were asked to face what assistant Coach Chet Dalgewicz termed, the longest and most competitive schedule in Princeton ' s history. Included among Princeton ' s oppo- nents were such Eastern and national powerhouses as Oklahoma, Navy and Clarion State. Two wrestlers emerged as Princeton ' s leaders on the mat. After a year ' s absence from Princeton, junior Kit Kuntze returned with an inspiring dedication to the sport. Although not an overpowering wrestler, Kuntze proved to be a consistent winner at 150 lbs. Midway through the season, his record stood at 10-2-1 with one of his losses being at the hands of Navy ' s defending national cham- pion Dan Muthler. At 142 lbs., sophomore Denis Underkoffler remained a bright spot in Princeton ' s lineup. Despite a slow start, Un- derkoffler convincingly disposed of most of his oppo- nents, and appeared to be headed for a repeat of his freshman season when he earned an invitation to the na- tional championships. Kuntze and Underkoffler, however, received plenty f help during the first half of the season when the Tigers downed Gettysburg, Army, Indiana, and Franklin and Marshall. Led by resurgent captain Paul Martinelli, Princeton entered its Ivy League schedule with an out- side chance of retaining a share of its fifth consecutive Ivy League title. In an otherwise disappointing year, such a distinction would be warmly welcomed. Although graduation cost fencing coach Stan Sieja sev- eral of his key personnel, he still retains the bulk of the team that took second place in last year ' s Easterns competition. The mainstay of the current Tiger attack is a super- sharp sabre team anchored by Weapon Leader Dave Dia- mond. The senior tallied nine consecutive victories early in the season before finally being stopped. As the team winds up its regular season, Diamond should be a candi- date for post-season plaudits. Dave Uffelman, who notched a fourth place finish in the Ea.sterns sabre competition, has been a consistent per- former along with sabremate Mike Stalnecker. Turning to epee. Captain Jake Redway and Weapon Leader Walt Weintz have provided the quick blades. The Tiger captain has a slow, measured defensive style that has proven fiendishly effective in causing his opponents to commit errors. Fencing in the second position, Weintz has just recently established himself as a strong epee fencer during the past season. The foil team has been something of a question mark all year. Weapon Leader Rey Gonzalez is the the only se- nior foil man. An extremely agile and mobile fencer, Gonzalez has displayed flashes of brilliance and despair. Sophomore Rich Petretti has been the iron man of the foil squad, consistently turning in 3-0 or 2-1 performances. Ju- nior Frank Mirabello has seen a lot of action fencing third strip. At the helm for his twenty-eighth season, Sieja once more embodies the fencing tradition at Princeton. During the meets his most persistent advice to his fencers is Think positive : a chant often echoed by the fencers themselves. Their positive thinking helped them to upset and cmd the four-year winning streak of New York University, the top-ranked fencing power in the country last season.

Howev(!r. a leg injury to Larrik and the departure of two other meimbers seivercdy hampered the; Tigers in their first few tournaments.

Heading towards a playoff berth, the Tigers continued their season with a renewed confidence in bringing Princeton ' s volleyball program to fruition. If you look at the track team ' s ovorall performance this year! you can appreciate the fact that running is an indi- vidualistic sport. As the thinclads wavered between m.ni- iocrity and respectability, that crucial collective sp.irk was somehow missing. The 1974 lackluster season is an enigma for a team with so much raw mettle. No true superstars, and few concerted team efforts. But the team is young and should improve. Coach Lcirry Ellis ' s squad will lose only seven athletes to graduation this year-team co-captains 4:07 milers Andy Rubert ami Chris Elliot, hurdler Sandy Cargile, pole vaulter Dave Waltz, 440 ace Arnold Hyndman, weight man Charlie Hunter, and ubiquitous decathlete Rich Watson. Princeton ' s traditional forte has been the distance and middle-distance races. Undisputed king of the two-and three-mile is mustachioed soph Ron Vander Kraats, who holds a number of university records and state titles, ju- nior Ron Bunnell and wild-haired frosh John Cabell round out the varsity distance contingent. The 880-yard run IS dominated by quick-tongued junior Jeff Weicksel and curly-haired frosh Craig Masback, last year ' s Golden West school-boy half-mile champ.

So let ' s just write off this se.ison as p.irt ni ,i ■Imildiiig year. Tig.M t.a.k h.is the Innks-but can il Imihl the house? Despite last year ' s optimistic predictions and the influx of many talented freshmen, Princeton ' s indoor track team struggled through one of its poorest seasons in recent years. Facing some of the East ' s most powerful teams, the Tiger trackmen achieved only a 5-7 record and a disap- pointing eighth place finish in the Heptagonal meet. The season opened inauspiciously with the team losing to Heptagonal champion Navy. The following week only the shuttle hurdle team placed in the Princeton Indoor Relays. After a frustrating half point loss to Seton Hall and a defeat by IC4A champion Manhattan, the team ' s fortunes finally began to improve. The trackmen won their fourth straight New Jersey Collegiate Championship and defeated Columbia and Yale. Even in the loss to per- ennial victor Harvard, the team performed well and made the 73.5-59.5 score one of the closest in years. The team ' s record belies some of the outstanding per- formances made by the trackmen. The middle distance runs were the Tigers ' strongest events, supported by the consistent scores of Chuck Hedrick and Jeff Weicksel in the 1000 and Craig Masback and Vic Waye in the 600. Ron Vander Kraats, Ron Bunnell, and John Cabell pro- vided the Tigers with an exceptionally strong two mile unit while the senior co-captains Chris Elliot and Andy Rubert led in the mile. Senior hurdler Sandy Cargile ex- celled throughout the season, finishing with a fourth place in the Heptagonals. The Tigers appeared weakest in the field events, but performances by vaulters Dave Waltz, Dave Fullerton, Tom Carabasi, and Dan Williges, triple jumper Tom Fink, and shotputter Bob Yorke, helped to offset an overall lack of depth. Despite their mediocre indoor record, the trackmen possess good potential for the outdoor season. The Princeton track team, which has been steadily improving under Coaches Larry Ellis and Richard Robinson, may yet make 1974 a successful year. If you look at the track team ' s overall performance this year, you can appreciate the fact that running is an indi- vidualistic sport.

Tiger track has the bricks-but can it build the house? Despite last year ' s optimistic predictions and the influx of many talented freshmen, Princeton ' s indoor track team struggled through one of its poorest seasons in recent years. Facing some of the East ' s most powerful teams, the Tiger trackmen achieved only a 5-7 record and a disap- pointing eighth place finish in the Heptagonal meet.

Despite their mediocre indoor record, the trackmen possess good potential for the outdoor season. The Princeton track team, which has been steadily improving under Coaches Larry Ellis and Richard Robinson, may yet make 1974 a successful year. Of the teams that Princeton can boast about this year, none is more exciting than the men ' s and women ' s tennis. Their competition offers extreme challenges, and yet both teams have measured up and surpassed their oppo- nents in flying colors-orange and black, of course. The men began the fall with three to four weeks of practice before the ECAC (Eastern College Athletic Con- ference-Division 1) tournament, held here at Princeton. They proved themselves to be the ace team, winning the tournament hands down and setting a record for the number of team points accumulated. Through February informal practicing was held until Coach Bill Summers rallied the top members of the varsity in a four-day prac- tice before the Princeton Indoor Invitationals. The Tigers showed their potential by making a strong showing against top stars. Though still in need of a bit more time to prepare, Princeton was beginning what should be an Ivy title season and a number one position in the East. The trip to Florida in the spring tested the strength of the team as it played against teams nationally ranked in the top ten. This year the toughest competition came from Columbia, Penn State, and North Carolina, but the Tigers had a satisfactory schedule and an encouraging quantity of depth. Top players Dean Colson (the captain and one of three seniors in the team) and Bill Dutton and Bob Fisher (both sophomores) continued to lead the team to their victories. The season will be completed by a June trip to the West Coast when the Tigers will play in the UCAA at the University of Southern California in Los Angeles. Coach Summers was confident that he could improve his team to almost any level and found this year to be no contradiction as he saw 100% improvement over last year. The enthusiasm that each member of the team displays has built a solid rapport between coach and team as well as among the members. This type of relationship obvi- ously provides one of the key elements in the making of a dynamic team. The women can boast similarly of a great season as they began in the fall with a tremendous showing the Easterns held here at Princeton. Susan Epstein, doubles ' partner of Chris Evert, came through with a first in sin- gles while Julie Kirkham and Maureen Curran came in first in the doubles. The girls were off to a bang, proving their strength even without last year ' s outstanding se- niors. Unfortunately, Sue Epstein withdrew from Prince- ton to leave the Tigers minus their top competitor. Never- theless, the team was always one to rally and to overcome all obstacles, and they pulled through again with a fine record. The new assistant coach, Ann Marie Hicks, joined the tennis staff this fall as assist ant coach and subsequently took over Mrs. Kraft ' s position as head coach when the latter resigned her position. Ms. Hicks had in mind many plans for the spring, including a trip to Florida for some of the varsity and practice programs in conjunction with the men ' s tennis under guest instructors. The team showed a depth in which most people ap- proximated each other in ability, a fact which promoted a competitive spirit. As Captain Laddie Jennings com- mented, There wasn ' t any huge jump in abilities as we were all evenly strong, but each match counted since we didn ' t have the guaranteed wins that we had had last year. Another shift in the set-up was with regard to the JV team which became a separate entity, having elected its own captain and maintained its own schedule and line- up. Yet, even with this split the varsity and JV remained very close as top members of the JV continued to offer the bottom members of the varsity a challenging competition. The year was a commendable one, and with an ade- quate amount of talent joining the team in the fall, the women ' s team should continue to prove their superiority on the courts. The women ' s squash team, in existence for only three years at Princeton, reestabli.shfjci its hegemony over the female squash world by posting a perfect 13-0 record in regular season play, including the winning of the presti- gious Howe Cup in New Haven for the second year in a row. Led by powerhouse Wendy Zaharko. the t(-am rlemoi- ished virtually every opponent, blanking all but Trinity. In the season ' s first two matches, the team met Franklin and Marshall (F M) and Penn, downing them both with scores of 9-0. After the P(!nn victory, the .squad travelled to New Haven to play in the Howe Cup tournament. Competing against eight other schools, the top-seeded five-man team from Princeton defeated every challenger, including Trinity in the final round, to claim the Cup for the second straight year. After the Howe Cup, the Tigers demolished Yale, 9-0, again refusing to concede a single point. The closest match of the season came with Trinity, against whom the Princeton squad finally got the upper hand and defeated, 4-3. Radcliffe and Wellesley followed, and both were downed by the Princeton women, 7-0. Penn visited Princeton for a rematch, but found itself once again on the losing side as the Tiger squad registered its twelfth straight victory, bettering the Quakers, 14-0. The thirteenth and final victory in regular season play, capping a perfect undefeated year, came against Vassar. Again Princeton blanked its foes, winning 7-0. As I was trekking in the Nepalese Himalayas several years ago, one of my companions was caught in a land- slide which crushed her right foot. In the ensuing rescue operation our sherpa guide, who was originally from the mountains, remained frighteningly indifferent. To him this accident was an ordinary part of life. Later, 1 asked him what it was like to live in continual fear of the moun- tain. He smiled and replied that it would be foolish to ex- plain, for I could never understand. We were from two different worlds and could communicate in language, but not in spirit. I feel a similar lack of communicative commonality as I try to express what crew this year at Princeton has been to those of us whose lives it has touched. One central rea- son that non-oarsmen cannot comprehend rowing is that it is one of the least publicized sports; yet ironically, it demands more time and effort than any other sport in the University. Crew starts the first day of school in Septem- ber and ends in June. The oarsman must sacrifice two and a half hours of his day, six days a week, all year as well as two vacations. A second factor which fosters distorted perspectives of rowing is that mentally and spiritually, crew is unlike any other athletic endeavor. The fact that it is the most physically demanding sport in the world is only one ele- ment compared to the experience as a whole. To most oarsmen crew becomes a type of religion. It offers a set of conditions where introspection is not only possible, but becomes unavoidable. It is a gate to discovering one ' s po- tentials. An oarsman is totally aware of his limits of men- tal and physical endurance, yet is continually surprised as these boundaries expand to new ones or, for some, as they collapse. Though crew is the uUimate team sport, it must also be the ultimate individual sport. Each person must work well with others as a unit, coordinating his motions to a precision that is imperceivable to the eye and can only be felt by the rowers. If everyone does not perform opti- mally, winning becomes an impossibility. Whereas it is possible for teammates to compensate for their friends ' mistakes in football, basketball, or hockey, it is impos- sible for seven oarsmen to compensate for a sub-par per- formance of the eighth. Thus, each individual must see to it that he is performing optimally in coordination with the others. Many cannot meet this demand. It is a heavy mental burden to know that you can make no mistakes for seven minutes, and that your entire body must feel as if it is on fire at the end of the race. For many, the realiza- tion that they are not what they thought themselves to be is too much. Crew is excellent for dispelling distorted self-concepts. When spectators watch a race on Lake Carnegie, they see a minute portion of crew. The act of pulling an oar through the water is one fraction of rowing. What they don ' t see are the 8.3 hours of workouts that go into every minute of the race; the loves and hates among oarsmen and coaches; the grades that suffered to finish .5 seconds ahead of Navy; the blood on the oars held by blistered hands; the therapy that crew provides in an intensely ac- ademic environment; what crew has been, is, and will mean to the individual oarsman. A spectator trying to un- derstand rowing is in the same position I was in when I asked the sherpa guide what it was like to live in fear of the Himalaya. It would be foolish to try to understand. tom craig 1973-74 marked a year of revitalization for the heavy- weight crew program. With an 85% turnout of last year ' s freshman and the reappearance of former varsity stand- outs, heavyweight crew has turned from a hiughable en- deavor to a serious business. The incoming sophomores are the first group from frosh coach Mike McLaughlin ' s new school of training which advocates mental and phys- ical toughness. The initiation of an intensive recruiting program last year yielded an (!xceptional group of fresh- men, and Princeton crew should soon be on top. This up- ward trend was first reflected at the Head of the Charles where Princeton heavyweights took eighth in a field of sixty, beating powerhouses such as Northeastern, Penn, Coastguard, and MIT. Despite a plague of injury and sick- ness, the squad approached the dull months of winter training with a vigor unseen in recent years. This new at- titude doesn ' t guarantee a given number of wins, but heavyweight crew in 1974 should see many bare-backed opponents. The future of the rowing program is excellent. With the completion of the new buoy system last spring, Princeton has the only FISA approved international race course in the country. It is by far the fairest course to race on: straight for 2000 meters with excellent water conditions. Princeton should soon be the center of rowing in Amer- ica. Already, the University hosts the youth tryouts and the Eastern Sprints for 1975. As a result of this exposure, hundreds of high school oarsmen are becoming inter- ested in rowing at Princeton which will insure a strong program in the future. Once on a dim and dream-like shore. Half seen, half recollected; 1 thought I met a human oar Ideally perfected. The Perfect Oar, dinner at Friendly ' s, big grey sweat suits, Jenny, Little Eddy, dinner at 7:30 .... all part of the unfolding tradition of PUWC. You cannot isolate the experiences and get a true picture of women ' s crew. It isn ' t only stadium seats, calloused hands, aching tired- ness, seat races, and double practices. Nor is it just ice cream parties, humor, winning races, and sunsets on the lake. Crew is both brutal and lovely; it is this double na- ture that is its essence. Each girl who tries crew reacts differently to her expe- riences. Some become addicted or hard core and come back year after year. Others give up along the way-after a day, a week, a year. The problem of keeping people out for the team is one that Princeton must still learn to solve. A number of experienced oarswomen failed to return this year, causing an annoying lack of depth. By spring the team was just big enough for two boats, so each ill- ness and injury was crucial. The members of UPO (Union of Port Oarswomen) generally outnumbered those of BOSO (Beneficient Order of Starboard Oarswomen) dur- ing the fall, but a balance was achieved by spring through some maneuvering of personnel. In spite of the minor difficulties, team spirits were buoyant throughout the year. The women rowed in good form at the Head of the Charles, adding points in their event to the total Princeton University team score, thus helping the Tigers to a third place finish overall. They re- mained on the water for practice until the lake froze dur- ing Christmas break. After returning from the extended vacation, captain Cate Huisman led the crew in an accel- erated winter training period-including combinations of flat running, stadium seats, ergometer pieces, weight training, and practice in the rowing tanks. Highlighting 1974 was the arrival of a new super cedar shell, the Jo- sephine Woodward Simpson, which had been purchased by a team member ' s family. The new shell can be split into two sections for easier transportation to away races. It ' s difficult to say what the future holds for PUWC. Women ' s rowing is a rapidly expanding sport. As new teams are formed each year, Princeton must try to main- tain her excellent record against the added competition. One thing is certain: no matter what the outcome of the race, the women ' s crew team remains a group of vital, en- thusiastic people-a source of pleasure that makes the little bit of pain worthwhile. The 1974 Tiger baseball season will live on a few prom- ises and many hopes. Coach Ed Donavan sees a high- quality sophomore crew and enough returning lettermen to justify his forecasting a definite contender. The in- coming sophomores will take up the slack in the many positions-particularly on the catching and pitching staffs-left open through graduation or attrition. In the Eastern Intercollegiate Baseball League (EIBL), pitching depth provides the key to a good team and sea- son due to the fact that teams play three and sometimes four games every Friday and Saturday in addition to single games during the week. Princeton ' s pitching staff this year will be headed by the only senior member, Steve Crandall, who has been an extremely consistent performer in his two varsity years. Juniors Toy Savage and Scott McHenry, a bonus baby who opted for college ball, will see a lot of action during the regular campaign. The all-important sophomore crew is headed by a strong performer in Mark Softy with steady help from Mike French and Doug Lorentz. The infield positions would seem likely to be won by all four starters returning from last year ' s varsity, but there are a lot of eager sophomores likewise hoping to win a position. Steve Loy returns as the third sacker with flashy Ed Kuchar battling him all the way. The shortstop position should be won by senior Steve Brown, but rookie Neil Chamberlin may really offer a challenge for the spot. At second base the mini-dynamo John Cullinane returns for another year of base-stealing and sharp field- ing. Kevin Kaufman will, nevertheless, be pressing him hard for the position. The captain, slugger Ken Beytin, is a shoe-in for first base on his hitting strength as well as his excellent field play. The outfield positions are very much wide open with anything possible. Two-year veteran and start er Tony Ri- posta should take one of the three positions with a group of sophomores fighting for the others. Glen Christie, a strong performer from last year ' s freshman squad should replace the speed and flare lost when Dave Mistretta chose to sit out the year. Others looking for the chance include two juniors who saw limited action last year. Rich Ziegler and Eric Hoberg. John Blodgett, Mark Skof, and Greg Adams round out the sophomores vying for outfield positions. The most important position on the field, the catcher, should be filled by one of two good-looking sophomores, Kevin Plunkett or Jack Basta. Thus, if Ed Donavan can only develop a good catcher and get his pitching staff into shape, this year just might be the one when every- thing falls into place and when Princeton again has a title contender. The 1974 lacrosse team aimed at continuing the up- swing in Princeton lacrosse fortunes from the 1971 1-11 season through last year ' s 6-10 record, which included near misses against nationally ranked Washington Lee, Brown, and Army. The emphasis this year has been placed upon strengthening the midfield and defense, as last year ' s squad was often carried by an attack which featured present captain Jim Shea ' 74, Jon Pettit ' 74, and all Ivy and second team All American choice, Bill Chaires ' 75. Thus, possessing already a strong attack, Coach Arthur Robinson decided at the start of the year to concentrate upon defense, and pre-season drills empha- sized work on a combination zone and man-to-man defense. The team is presently dominated by juniors and soph- omores from the past two freshman teams, which have lost only one game over two years. The increase in the number of players on the varsity has necessitated the scheduling of additional games. The Tigers will discover their potential early this year since five of their first six opponents were selected to play in last year ' s NCAA Tournament. After a warm-up game against Fairleigh Dickinson, Princeton plays na- tional runner-up Johns Hopkins, then Hofstra, Washing- ton Lee, Navy, and Brown. The schedule also includes NCAA tournament participant Army and New Jersey state champion Rutgers. One of the newest of the Princeton women ' s teams is the year-old lacrosse team which, coached by Penny Hin- ckley, completed its first season last spring. Needing twelve girls to make up a full team, the sport managed to recruit only fourteen, four of whom had never before played. Even with such handicaps, the team completed a very satisfactory first year and lost only one senior. Returning in ' 74 are high scorers senior Louise Meledin from Balti- more and sophomore Emily Goodfellow from Phila- delphia. Several fine freshman players are expected to swell further the ranks of the team to promise a winning season in contrast to last year ' s building season. In ad- dition, several new games have been scheduled for the Tigerettes this year, including Ivy League games such as a match with the excellent University of Pennsylvania team. One of the most remarkable things to characterize this team is the spirit. Building a new team from scratch is an incredibly difficult task compounded by the lack of expe- rienced players. However, the team has worked hard and has contributed a lot of time and dedication to the crea- tion of a winning team. Especially appreciated are the spectators, because the girls must often barrel into the the participants. For those of you who have never seen a girls ' lacrosse game, it can be pretty exciting, even for the spectators, because the girls must often barrelinto the sidelines— thus, into the midst of their spectators— to re- trieve a stray ball, an act perfecdy allowable in a game with no boundaries. It ' s also different from the boys ' game in that there is no contact between players and in the fact that both hands must be kept on the stick at all times. Thus, though similar to the boys ' game, it is really quite different and well worth watching. Watch out for this team; the women have a lot of po- tential and are determined, under able coaching, to put it to good use! For the third straight year, the Princeton golf team looks very strong. Last year only one player was lost to graduation. In the spring of ' 73 the Tigers finished with a dual match record of 13-3 and a second place finish in the Spring Easterns, which qualified the team for the NCAA tournament. Throughout the past year ' s season Stu Francis led the team and earned honorable mention, All- American status. In addition, Randy Riley, George Wick, and Francis earned All-Ivy honors. Then last fall, Francis won the University Championship for the second time in three years, although he faced a stiff challenge from other members of the team. This spring should see intense competition for all top seven varsity positions. Such inter-team competition should keep the players in top form and thus strengthen the Tigers ' hopes for capturing the Spring Eastern Cham- pionship. The season unofficially starts with the Miami Invitational tournament over spring vacation. Last year the Tigers won their division and placed sixth in the overall national competition. With funds, gasoline, and luck, the ' 74 team will find their way back to Florida and make a stbong early showing. Coach Quackenbush con- tinues to direct the squad and predicts that this team may be Princeton ' s finest. 3§ k X «- ' ' T ' , 7 (fc, „r £? After fifty years as a popular undergraduate activity, sailing at Princeton is about to take a big step up. The Yacht Club has been putting the final touches on prepa- rations for the construction of a new boathouse which it hopes to have ready next fall. The Princeton University Yacht Club, consisting of un- dergraduates and facuhy members, is one of the oldest student campus organizations. Founded in 1928. the Yacht Club has been home for a number of famous alumni including Olympic representatives and world champion skippers. Bt more important, it has introduced many to a sport they might never get to try again. Each season, the Princeton sailing team sails all over the east coast in boats ranging from dinghies to forty- four-foot cruising boats. Last fall a seven-man team won the annual Corinthians ' Race for college sailors and placed well in the McMillan Cup, one of the most presti- gious college sailing events. Again this spring, gas or no gas, Princeton sailing teams will travel to some of the most challenging events, in- cluding the East Coast and National Championships. Three teams-a freshman squad, a varsity team including both sides of the Princeton experience, and a separate women ' s team-race their own schedules. The women ' s team, which was formed only four years ago, is one of Princeton ' s most successful teams. Unde- feated from the beginning, the team placed third in last year ' s Nationals and hopes for the top spot this year in a series which hopefully will be held in some of the teams ' home waters in California. But racing isn ' t everything. The Yacht Club ' s fleet of Sunfish gets heavy use: everyone from casual Satur day sailors to the horde of freshman phys. ed. students, who spend the fall and spring learning the tricks of land- locked Lake Carnegie. Sail or race, whether someone unable to tell bow from front or someone functioning as expert tiller pusher, a member of the Yacht Club is just one of a group dedi- cated to one proposition: that sailing, even here, can be more fun. One football note of possible interest: the Ivy League was not even a distant dream when we were in college. In 1923 the varsity played only two Ivies-Yale and Harvard, plus Johns Hop- kins, Swarthmore, Georgetown, Navy, and Notre Dame. John f mackay ' 27 sports administration metamorphoses Since 1923 Princeton varsity sports have passed many milestones. The 1973-74 seasons carried on the traditions with a sweeping curl upwards. A new image began to make its ap- pearance on the face of Princeton athletics fol- lowing the revamping of its administration de- partment. The advent of 1973 welcomed three new-fledged coaches, the innovation of a female trainer, and a fresh, enterprising new athletics director. After spending seven years at Dartmouth and the University of Connecticut, Bob Casciola re- turned to his alma mater to become the head coach of football. As far as he was concerned, there was nothing that he wanted to do more. That type of attitude is what has made Bob Cas- ciola an excellent football coach. A lot of you may not agree with that state- ment; if you don ' t, ask a football player or two how he feels about Bob Casciola. I ' m sure you ' ll find all the answers to agree with mine. Coaching at UConn was an experience be- cause it ' s larger, and it ' s a state school. They simply place emphasis on different things. Af- ter coaching at UConn, Casciola came to Prince- ton with the hope of turning around a sinking program. He found the going tough, for he com- pletely revamped the offense and defense, pos- sibly without using the proper personnel. But he notes that our goal was to create the proper at- titude. We felt that the seniors had had two years of negative experience and we owed it to them to create one joyful year. Everyone tried to get the most out of playing football. Casciola and his staff worked hard to create a positive atmosphere. Most of his coaching staff was new also; consequently, not only were the players adjusting to new coaches, but the coaches were adjusting to new players. We had to make the kids realize that they had good coaches, and we had to learn to understand the student athlete. It ' s a great thing to know that the kids are out there because they want to be, not because they have to be. The key, however, to the attitude of the team was that each player knew that the others were trying their best, an understanding regarded by Casciola as an ex- tremely pertinent emotional factor. Casciola refuses to make any predictions about the future. He wants to make Princeton into the Ivy power it once was, but he realizes that this standard won ' t be achieved overnight. The league has become far more balanced, ac- cording to Casciola, and it will be far more diffi- cult to win a lot of Ivy league contests in the fu- ture. His goal is simply to return us to a very competitive position in the league. Judging by his players ' reactions, Casciola has made an excellent start. Princeton soccer is on the upswing, having posted a 7-2-3 mark last fall, their finest in some time. One of the main causes is without ques- tion the attitude, knowledge, and enthusiasm of first-year coach Bill Muse. Only twenty-six years old. Muse was an All-American halfback at Springfield College in 1968 and graduated from SC in 1969. Since then, he has served one year as an assistant coach at State University of New York at Albany and was an assistant coach at Hartwick College for three years before com- ing to Princeton. He turned down the head coaching job at Hartwick, an already estab- lished national power, to move to Princeton. By accepting the Princeton offer. Muse inherited the chance to build his own team, whereas if he had stayed at Hartwick, the team would already have been built for him. Frankly, he felt that he had everything to gain and nothing to lose by at- tempting to revitalize the already floundering Princeton program. Coaching at Princeton is a pleasant change for Muse. He cites the differences in intelligence and attitude between the players at Princeton and Hartwick as the main reason. The players here are always eager to learn, states Muse, while the players at Hartwick weren ' t. A little bit of knowledge is a bad thing. Recruiting at Princeton is more difficult for Muse. At Hart- wick, all a good player needed was a C aver- age to be admitted, while here the academic re- quirements are far more demanding and rightly so, making top-notch players harder to find. Naturally, Muse was surprised at and pleased with his first season in Tigertown. We had a great bunch of players, Muse noted, and cited the solid play of sophomores, especially the de- fense, as key. When asked about the prospects for next season, Muse said that it would be dif- ficult to duplicate this year ' s performance. The biggest obstacle will be the Tigers ' schedule, for they must play four of their seven Ivy League matches on the road. Included among those four are Penn, Brown, and Yale, teams that finished ahead of the Tigers in last fall ' s play. Muse feels strongly, however, that if we are prepared, it doesn ' t really matter where we play. Muse has a unique coaching philosophy. Winning isn ' t everything, according to the new mentor; rather, success is most important, and winning isn ' t always a prerequisite. If the play- ers themselves feel that they have been success- ful, individually and as a group, win or lose, then Muse knows he has done his job as coach. For me to be a success, Muse explained, I have to be involved. I must be a friend, father, disciplinarian and authoritarian all in one so that my players and I will share a mutual respect. Not only is Muse frosh lacrosse coach in the spring, but he also has attended numerous coaching schools during the past summers, earning himself a Class A rating (there are only twenty-five such coaches in the US) and has become one of only six National Staff Coaches. He is intent upon helping soccer in the US, and hopes someday to be an athletics direc- tor at a small school in the South. If Muse keeps up the outstanding work he is now doing, Princeton will find it very difficuh to let him get away. I The man who is most responsible for the new and better look in Princeton athletics is Royce Fhppin ' 56, who replaced Ken Fairman in the begmning of 1973. One can make that statement without hesitation when one hears the coaches, old and new, speak about him. They all agree that working with Flippin is a joy, simply be- cause of the intense interest he shows in every sport. In short, he cares. Flippin has changed the image of Princeton athletics to a remarkable degree. First, he hired three new coaches in an effort to bolster sagging programs. Then he awaited results. Bob Cas- ciola, ahhough suffering through a disastrous season statistically, built the type of attitude and maintained the type of respect that is going to win some football games next season. Bill Muse led the soccer team to its best record in years. And Jack Semler led a hockey resurgence unparallelled in recent years. Flippin considers athletics at an academic in- stitution like Princeton to be an essential part of the curriculum. It all starts with making sure that the student gets his money ' s worth, he says. Satisfaction, fulfillment and a joyous ath- letic experience are our goals. To realize those goals, Flippin feels that three things are abso- lutely necessary. First are facilities; second are schedules. Flippin feels that Princeton has both. Leadership is the third criteria, and Flippin seems to have done especially well in that de- partment. We ' re looking for quality leadership for our athletes: men who will understand, cope with and lift up the Princeton athlete. If that statement summarizes his goals, then the new director has been fantastically successful. Flippin stands in a vulnerable position. If something goes wrong he is the first to hear about it. Surprisingly enough, however, alumni gripes don ' t bother him. Flippin feels that alumni are interested in the same things as he- i.e., that the quality of leadership is good-con- sequently, if he himself feels satisfied that someone is doing a good job, there is nothing to worry about. There are also the other statistics of which Flippin is very proud. First is the amazing fact that thirty percent of all Princeton students par- ticipate in intercollegiate athletics. That means that about twelve hundred students are in- volved during the year. Second is the fact that athletes ' grades are higher, on the average, dur- ing the season than during the off-season. That too is an incredible statistic. Royce Flippin has a lot to be proud of. They stunned Cornell, 4-1. They beat Dart- mouth 5-3. Then they lost a close one to pow- erful Harvard, 5-4. And while the applause rang throughout the confines of Baker Rink, one man stood at the corner of the Princeton bench, opening and closing the gate for his players as they came off the ice. His name is Jack Semler, he is the varsity hockey coach and he is, to a great extent, responsible for the resurgence of the Tiger ' s fortunes. Semler came to Princeton in the summer of 1972 as the new freshman hockey coach. His team fashioned a brilliant 15-5 record while the varsity struggled through a 5-18 season, their worst in quite a while. Then in the spring Bill Quackenbush, the varsity mentor, accepted a promotion and became director of Baker Rink as well as freshman hockey coach. Semler, at twenty-eight, suddenly found himself to be the youngest varsity hockey coach in the country. The adjustment from freshman to varsity was not too difficult according to Jack. Moving up to the varsity with the sophomores that he had coached as freshmen gave him the confidence he needed. He noted, however, that freshmen are ideal in that they are excited about college and about playing hockey; consequently they have lots of spirit. The varsity players need a httle extra motivation. Semler also gave credit to Quackenbush for helping adjust to the rigors of his job. Jack Semler coaches because he enjoys it, and that feeling influences the way he handles his performers. Like Bill Muse, he tries to get as close as possible to his players, yet still main- tain their respect and admiration. Learning to lose together plays an important part in main- taining that respect. There ' s no pride lost in playing hard and still losing. All that we expect from each other is to do our best. Jack says that he receves total cooperation from players and students alike, making his work much easier. Unlike many coaches, Semler finds recruiting a pleasure and a challenge. Explaining what Princeton is all about to someone who ' s never been here is difficuU, but I get a terrific feeling of pride in having gone to a player ' s home and met his parents, then actually seeing him here in the fall Of course, Semler is pleased with his team s play this season. As in most sports, defense is the key; goals will come as a result of hustle, drive, and knowing what to do with the puck in the offensive zone. He pointed to the Yale game in New Haven as the turning point and noted that the team did not lose a game by more than one goal until the Cornell game in Ithaca. As far as next season goes, Jack is enthusiastic. All five of his defensemen will return, and the forwards will be fairly intact, losing only three per- formers. The big question mark will be in goal for Phil Robinson will graduate. Semler ' s only ambition is to become a better coach. He plans to attend a coaches ' clinic in Toronto and to coach at a hockey school for two months this summer. Two words sum up Semler ' s attitude: I ' m eager! If you happen to be wandering into the train- ing room at Dillon Gym for the first time this year, don ' t be surprised to find a tall, dark- haired female sitting in the office. Her name is Doris Wickel, and she is a trainer; she ' s also a therapist and a good one at that as any injured athlete will attest. Although officially a member of the Health Department, she makes her work an integral part of the women ' s athletics depart- ment. Like a men ' s trainer she is assigned to one of the squads (this year she handled field hockey, basketball and lacrosse) and is respon- sible for the well-being of each participant. Doris does their pre-game and practice taping and is present at each match, whether it is home or away. Doris feels right at home in Dillon, regardless of whom she is treating. In fact, she finds work- ing with men easier because the women simply are used to being self-sufficient and aren ' t used to the idea of having a female trainer around. She enjoys contact with the students because of their limitless sense of humor and the good re- ception she received when she arrived here. Working with Tom Sullivan the resident Dillon trainer, is a pleasure for her because of his knowledge and experience, and Doris notes that she feels especially appreciative with regard to the soccer squad, for they were the first people she treated last fall. Doris ' s special goal is the hope that the role of the female therapist can become entrenched at a school like Princeton. Female therapists are needed, she feels, and hopefully people will re- alize that trainers like her are worthwhile. Doris Wickel certainly has started a new trend at Princeton, and we ' re sure she ' ll be here for a long time to come. bill exley To gauge the change in the Prince- ton of today with the Princeton of the past-say sixty years ago-you put your calipers first on what the United States was like sixty years ago. Like it or not, every college and university anywhere, Amer- ica, England, France, China or Turkistan, has to mirror the civ- ilization, the mores, the habits, the morals, the ideals of the particular period under the microscope of the institution under review. . . . The state of America and the state of the world today does not at all coincide with the situation half a century, and a bit more, ago. For all but two of the twenty-five years since I graduated I have lived in Princeton and it seems to me that change has been the keynote to those years. New buildings have been added to the campus to meet the needs of a changmg educa- tion in a rapidly changing world. New faculty housmg for a growing faculty were built. New classrooms for expanding programs have been erected and new dorms for new Jife styles when Princeton went coeducational. It has been twenty-five years of constant change on the campus and m undergraduate life. henry r martin ' 48 1 i v5 t ■ iilf Kift ' ' «% r m j0, r - We hear from classmates on the Board that Princeton is currently moving in o direction that is bringing the institution toward a rapprochement with even the dissident alumni. If this is so, it seems to me only simple justice for the alumni to move too, so that the best reunion of ail-that of the whole Princeton family-may be reached as soon as possible. glen c h perry ' 26 1 think a former 1926 president expressed what a lot of us feel very well when he said, There are a lot of things happening in Washington that I don ' t like, but I ' m not about to give up my American citizenship.

There must be something magic in the air ... a magic invis- ible, intangible that we name Princeton spirit. In this, Princeton becomes indeed our Alma Mater-mother of the spirit. m I r. mM M m —- If -lii IM _ l 1 ' , V Val S3P 11 J HjjjJM i ■ Jk mMi Jt tU n - Princeton 1974 ... 228 years old. Evolu- tionary changes, radical responses to the metamorphoses of the world and of so- ciety. Blue jeans, Woodrow Wilson, the Spelman dorms, coeducation ... the at- mosphere of the campus has altered, and the new tone is set by a myriad of in- novative keynotes, some strident, some jarring, some muted; all attempting to reach a harmony. Princeton docs not exist in a vacuum. We cannot have revolutionary changes in our society and have them not affect Princeton. char es h moore ' 31 and yet the alumni return ... the students are seeking their new worlds and struggling to establish their newly discovered identities, but through it all the alumni that have supported Princeton for two cen- turies of existence can yet find something of the past, something of their Princeton, not quite dissolved in but rather blended unobtrusively with strains of the new. Or perhaps blended is ' not the appropriate word either; the new consists partly of the old; the mood, the pace set by today ' s Princeton is founded upon the tradition of Princeton Yesterday. Is that same Princeton spirit as vivid and as fervent in the lives of current classes? I hope so. paul c mcpherson ' 14 Princeton could not be Princeton without her memo- ries; yet even less could she be Princeton without her changes, or without her constant efforts to attain a higher plateau where her imperfections might be lost. Princeton of 1746, and Princeton of 1974-neither could exist this minute without the help of the other; and yet neither must lean wholly upon the other for life. A fusion of yesterday and today-this is what sets Princeton apart as Princeton. The question is whether Princeton Uni- versity should just slide into being one of the dozens of good universities which dot our land, or whether it should continue to he Princeton. William a h paul ' 18 we think it should continue to be Princeton. r iK % 3x V .

TALE OF THE TIGER, THE OYSTER AND THE CRAB OR WHAT EVERY PRINCETON MAN SHOULD KNOW ABOUT ZJ MARYLAND HOSPITALITY There was this Tiger. After spending the best of four years in the heart of the Jersey Jungle, he suddenly found himself faced with life in o strange environment— Maryland. They call Maryland the Land of Pleasant Living, but confronted with such unfamiliar fare as oysters and crabs, the Tiger had his doubts. He found some jungle friends, though, and they made him feel right at home, even with oysters and crabs. If you ' re moving to Maryland, perhaps you ' ll join our circle, too.

Some of us are justified in complaining, but most of us aren ' t. Most of the difficulties and problems we have are of our own making. We hassle ourselves aca- demically and then complain about the pressure. We say there is little to do, yet we sit on our asses and don ' t take advantage of the things which are available (see the first 300-odd pages of this volume). We even waste time complaining about other people ' s complaints (witness this statement). It is so easy to blame the place and the people when we should be blaming ourselves. Let us become just a bit less certain of ourselves— a bit more willing to accept the blame and do something about it. The world looks very different when you realize that you ' re being screwed by no one but yourself. Cathy Brown and Candy Conway deserve most of the credit for creat- ing Brie ' 74, as does Scott Patterson for the ' 74 Herald. The volumes are their work, the product of much time and labor. I thank them for their tirelessness and their tolerence of my quirks. Many other individuals de- serve acknowledgment for their effort. Unfortunately, space only per- mits me to thank Jeff Botkin, Rick Finegold, and Kevin Burns for their constant availability and ingenuity as short-order photographers. Most of this book portrays Princeton through their eyes. Bob Christ also de- serves mention for his typing infinitudes. I express my hope that the chairman was only moderately difficult to get along with. But then, a bit of adversity is often a good thing— even in a place like Princeton. donald s bernstein chairman, 1974 bric herald ' - V . ■ ' ' r- ■r
