We come to it for a vari- ety of reasons, we spend our four years in a variety of ways, and depart to a variety of fates. We have had certain experiences in common, however, which have made us a community. Whatever Swarthmore may come to stand for in our minds, each concept will have common elements. We have spent four years at Swarthmore ; passing autumn, winter, spring, and just to the edge of summer here. We have all lived in dormitories, eaten in the dining room, and attended classes and seminars. We have added our contribution to its panorama of extracurricular activities. We have shared Swarthmore ' s social life, become aroused at its issues, and deplored its administration in one phase or another. We have perpetuated some of its traditions, and tried to evade others. We have seen our personal problems and conflicts and triumphs repeated again and again among our fellows. We have thought with horror of becoming at last alumni, and we have all finally reached that state. The list may be extended indefinitely. This is indeed the bare framework of our shared experience, and we shall remember, not the framework, but the particular inci- dents and decisions which have shaped us to be in some way alike. Our time at Swarthmore has been clearly defined; its physical limits are sharper than those of most experience. But, in another sense, it cannot be set off from the rest of our lives. Our first year was a process of ad- justing to Swarthmore, a becoming accus- tomed, a finding of ourselves in relation to this academic existence. We may later have revised our attachment and involvement and shifted our position. Toward the end of our time here, and after we had gone, we de- tached ourselves bit by bit. We will never be able entirely to cut out the influence of these four years. J ' - ■■ ■ i • ' .. .- m :: , .;V y. ; • ' ° ' X ' ' ■ 4 ■■ ' '  : ' .4 ' - :ifi ' ■ ' - ;• ■- ■V -S, What is the nature of this process, this common experience and influence? No one can say, for it is not a static thing and can- not be. set down and examined. This is the life of Swarthmore, a thousand repeated ac- tions and one or two new ones. We are shap- ing Swarthmore, even as Swarthmore shapes us. Each one of us has been part of this hfe, and has been for a time indistinguishable from the flow of it. Swarthmore is then a part of the fabric of our lives, and this process is woven into our being. Though we may not be able to define the entirety of our experience, we are and al- ways shall be conscious of it. We shall value Swarthmore as part of ourselves, and re- member one another as possessors-in-common of this experience. 35 Origin of Species Just as you ' ve decided Swarthmore is a giant house party, the campus is invaded by sophomores, juniors, and seniors. They fill the dining room and crowd the halls, they act as if the place belonged to them, just when you were beginning to feel that it was yours! Orientation is over, and you ' re an authentic freshman now. Inevitably there comes the first day of classes. There will be weekly quizzes ; You will be responsible for . . . ; It is essential that you take thorough class notes ; and so on until your ears ring. Clutching imposing assignment sheets you dash to the bookstore and the library and find both mobbed. But, how can I do my assignment if I can ' t get the book? Freshman Class, first row: Dustin, S., Emigh, M., Grimes, A., An- drews, J., Harris, C, Buckwalter, W. second row: Nichols, A. Coop- er, A., Deutsch, E., Miller, M., Haddad, B., Prewitt, R., Condo- stanos, C. third row: Barksdale, B., Zarin, E., Barker, S., Rand, J., Peirce, L., Wilson, C, Hood, L., Freedman, S., Eberly, J., Weiss- man, J. fourth row: Freedman, E., Krueger, T., Carlisle, P., Latham, H., Campbell, S., Wells, J., Toll- man, J., Thorndike, S., Anderson, C, Cole, L., Moore, J., Sobel, M. fifth row: Nelson, T., Collins, P., Alexander, W., Nash, R., Cotton, R., Angell, J., Agard, S., Pendle- ton, J., Olmsted, J. grffHTi-TOSBi ■ w Freshman Class, first row: First, A., Matson, R., Reeves, V., Bunce, S., Luqueer, M., Grace, J., Watt, C. second row: Logan, E., Lamar, B., Shaw, C, Hall, V., Stevens, B., Hale, M., Lee, E. third row: Temin, P., Theobald, R., Poole, W., Simon, C, Henderson, J., Lowenheim, T., Hirsch, J., Carlson, C, Condon, M., Crandall, L. fourth row : Kanef , D., Tarlin, L., Lacy, D., Gilmore, G., Halden, R., Payson, P., Scott, K., Eames, E., Wegman, J. fifth row: Inners, L., Gideonse, M., Collins, J., Hudson, M., Greist, A., Gokce, U., Stever, R. Upper classmen are very free with advice ; No one likes to teach introductory courses ; they take turns doing it , Don ' t trust a word Dr. Enders says , Don ' t take Fine Arts 1, they turn off the lights and you don ' t hear another thing until the bell . Any time for sports, extra-curriculars, or a social life seems out of the question. You hadn ' t real- ized that it was possible to live on five hours sleep; it certainly was never so hard to get up in the morning. When confronted by the daily pittance of orange juice and a tough egg, you curse the inventor of eight o ' clocks. It ' s a tradition to flunk your first quiz, and you seem to be no exception. Poor organiza- tion , what do they mean : isn ' t it enough to know the stuff , but you have to organize it too? Saturday night comes inevitably too, and you decide that if you so much as look at another book you ' ll scream. You ' re initiated into the sign-out process, thinking fearfully of rules and dire penalties for IRs ' and SORs ' and FSORs ' . You have a wonderful time and remember to put the slip in the IN box. Life looks infinitely better, and you think how lucky you are to be at Swarthmore. Freshman Class, first row: Shoe- maker, E., Cornell, P., Elliott, E., Clatterbuck, M., Weeks, E. second row: Montgomery, M., Yoder, S., Compter, A., Weston, M., McCoy, M., Karpati, E., McCutchan, M., Stookey, L. third row: Taylor, J., Shaw, S., Wellman, J., Beam, E., Bliven, J., Parker, A., Odenweller, R. fourth row: Shear, D., Liebert, H., McKinley, M., Lee, M., Moss, S., Goodyear, D. fifth row: Simp- son, R., Harper, E., Yoder, C, Berk, P., Seaton, J., Dempsey, C, Stollnitz, F. sixth row: Miller, K., Cuykendall, R., Eskin, G., Brown, A., Fix, R., Parker, J., Hebble, P., Predmore, M., Emerson, R., Loss, B., Harvest, M., Miller, C, Bolger, J., Shahn, J. The Disenchanted fec v 4. For Whom the Bell Tolls Sunday brings the weekly exodus of church goers, and brief appearance of table cloths (somewhat spotted by the time you get into the dining room, ravenous, at 1 :20.) Suddenly the weekend is over and the alarm clock isn ' t going to stop unless you get up and turn it off. The days melt one into an- other ; you find that you have a routine, that you are actually enjoying the work. You begin to expand into extracurriculars. Try-outs, l ectures, meet- ing, sports, the Phoenix, SN ; they all sound so interesting and so inter- ested in freshmen. You seem to be acquiring the Swarthmore vocabulary. Words like Gestalt, dichotomy, structure, didactic, myth, or the intentional fallacy, no longer send you running for the dictionary. 38 Bullfinch ' s Mythology The Mentality of Apes You discover Collection and that it is com- pulsory. The penalty for being a freshman is to be either a seat in the balcony from which you can see and hear nothing, or a ' tempo- rary ' seat in what should be the orchestra pit, from which you can ' t see much either, although you certainly can be seen. A sub- scription to TIME seems to be the accepted method for attending Collection without ac- tually paying attention. One evening word comes surreptitiously that this is the night for the Freshman Serenade. The silent march on Wharton, the troops deployed at all exit points, the signal to attack, and all hell breaks loose. Next day you learn that the Associated Press won ' t handle the pictures taken during the fracas, and pray a silent prayer that you can ' t be recognized. The Web of Government Recent Experiments in Psychology A Room with a View 39 You now know when to go to dinner and avoid the line, you seem to know hundreds of people, your room looks thoroughly, perhaps excessively, lived in, you even agree to show around a prospective fresh- man, and high school seems far far away. Hour exams are creeping up though; mid-semester ap- proaches. Heavens, physics and poli sci on the same day ! You doubt everything, most of all your own capacity to pull through, there are so many pages more to read, so much to learn, how can you have gotten so far behind. Upperclassmen reassure you, they even lend you copies of past exams, but this only makes it worse. Books and Bidders King Solomon ' s Mines Darkness at Noon ipi Bf ■ Somehow, miraculously you live through it, and you don ' t flunk out ! Ah . . . the relief carries you till Christmas. The crazy disoriented world of exams, and the semester is over. You may stay out until 12:30 any night of the week, you may be able to squeeze in an elective among the requirements. Spring comes : the incredible Swarthmore spring when the campus breaks into colour, and the lawn is littered with students, the sound of guitars is wafted on the breeze, and you almost float to the end of the year. Exams, registration, and with a sigh of relief, you are no longer a freshman. Sophomore Class, first roiv : Woel- fel, M., Hacker, D., Bowles, N., Blume, E., Hughes, M., Marston, L., Goodwin, E., Borchert, F. sec- ond row: Oakley, B., Darlington, E., Richardson, R., Lindsay, S.. Wade, G. third row: Dunham, P., Luehman, E., Messolonghites, S., Helm, K., Keller, E., Branch, J. fourth row: Loewald, R., Todaro, G., Braverman, A., Price, S., Wad- dington, W., Skeath, E. fifth row: Lofland, J., Atkinson, P., Dann, M., Bennett, R., Greenawalt, K., Cur- reri, W. Primos, Secane, Morton, SWARTHMORE! Com- ing back as a sophomore is coming back to some- thing familiar, a known quantity. A different room, but the closet door also sticks, the desk again looks as though it had been finished with carbolic acid. The same people, not much changed, a new group of freshmen to assimilate, who look very much the way you must have. Classes and professors hold no terrors. The sophomore, the wise fool. The Last of the Mohicans The library is a familiar haunt . . . Why didn ' t they at least change the burned out bulbs in the periodical room? More tempo- rary shelves? The smoker in the basement looks like a crypt, but its advantages over the porch will be apparent come November. You ' ve staked a claim for a seat in the brows- ing room, and fall asleep regularly until the wheeze and thud of that inexorable, impos- sible clock wakens you. Remember when it struck thirteen? , And when it used to ring the hour punctually at ten after? You have even developed a method of cheating the type- writers, and have no qualms about carrying periodicals out under your arm. You almost feel omniscient. Then you discover that that freshman in Ec is doing better than you are, that those long labs are worse than reading books, and are not so sure. Steam Gamesmanship Sophomore Class, first row: Sar- bey, H., McCaslin, M., Oilman, J., SchaflF, M., Aronson, L., Chang, R. second row: Wasser, J., Sawin, J., Ramm, D., Haney, C, Sutton, M., Gifford, A., Hiller, B., Imbrie, L., Croft, G. third row: Davis, C, Cope, W., Paine, V., Lundy, V., Dunn, M., Beall, M., Gunn, V., DuflFy, E., Bakke, C, Trawick, S., Plimpton, A., Walch, C, Shipley, E., Farley, C, Glennan, K. fourth row: Mathews, T., Parker, E., Crawford, A., Eaker, J., Smith, J., Fahl, S., Finesinger, J. fifth row: Laties, D., Shakow, A., Shopen, T., Soifer, D., Dorwart, R., McDiar- mid, R., Headrick, W., Gilborn, S., Freedman, R., Gross, F., Bigelow, L., Wolf, E. sixth row: Cottrell, N., Tuteur, H., Goldstein, J., At- kinson, P., Robart, M., Bolger, J. The Life of the Bee You take on the job of hoagie salesman, the voice of the hoagie is heard in the halls. Why is it that people never want hot ones until the night they don ' t make any? You become something of a connoisseur of these delicacies, but never touch them yourself. You ' re no longer a dumb minion of the Phoenix, you can even vote on the editorial board. Maybe you ' ve worked your way off the J.V. team, or out of the background of SDA. But, you still have to get up at three a.m. for a fire drill the night before an hour exam, and the fire-captain still sends you back for hard-soled shoes. (Muttering im- precations, as they say, you go.) Swarthmore always has at least one good snow fall with ample provision for a quick trip to the library via tray, or an all-college snowball fight, the object of which, as every- one knows, is to roll the girls in the snow. Lots of people seem to enjoy skating to Mary Lyon, in spite of tales of those who have fallen into the ungrateful Crum. This is the year you begin to write papers. The way to Christmas is blocked by ten pages for this, fifteen pages for that. You stagger from the library with huge, dusty tomes, find your- self greeting dawn from the typewriter, and make your weary way home with at least one extension still hanging over your head. All the King ' s Men The Joy of Cooking i Combustion Engineering The Grapes of Wrath Patterns of Culture 44 By the time the semester is over you ' re so tired you feel like thro ving it all up. Is this what they call the sophomore slump? The irresistible urge to break out of this aca- demic slough of despair, which nevertheless must be resisted. Perhaps you take solace in bridge, or Andy ' s, or the crossword puzzle, but as the spring comes, the fog seems to be lifting, June is just around the corner, next year you will have a major, be finished with all this phys ed business, they say junior year is the most fun . You begin to think you will live that long, you ' re an old inhabitant, the whole thing shrinks to reasonable pro- portions, and you feel even a little reluctance as you pack up and say good-bye. Tender is the Night One, T-wo, Three . . . Infinity As a junior you come back confidently. The freshmen seem further away, and you miss a lot of familiar faces. Honors and course, whichever it is, you have time to get into your subjects more deeply, and they seem more exciting. The honors student with the first week ' s reading list in his hand, and the course student with ten papers, begin to wonder just who thought they were getting the best deal. Honors is certainly something quite new. Paper writing assumes a different complex- ion ; the carbon paper that won ' t lie flat, the discovery at the bottom of the page that you put the carbons in facing the wrong way, that the whole mess is wrapped so many times around the roller that it ' s all you can do to tear it free. You contemplate the seventh copy no one can read, the lines that ran to- gether, and, above all, the people who insist on single spacing. Plainville, U.S.A. Man ' s Fate Junior Class, first row: Swarthout, B., Bi-aunstein, E., Brown, S., Som- mer, U. second row: Capps, T., Ginsburg, S., Niles, P., Armstrong, T., Frank, L., Smith, D., Newman, M., Finesinger, R., Benson, J. third row: Bodkin, R., Hurst, C, Case, N., Durand, M., Winter, D., Chris- tianson, K., Fassett, B., Norris, D., Starr, J. fourth row: Watkins, S., Benahum, D., Bailey, G., Goolsby, A., Borgmann, T., Tissot, N., Mar- cus, M., Hall, J., Jacobs, B., Gross, D., Clarke, J., Knopf, N. fifth row: Porter, M., Witte, E., Nason, S., Tracy, B., Charles, E., Senft, J., Blake, P., Klock, P., Earle, C. sixth row: Pitkin, S., Ha, S., Rowe, J., Rosi, P. seventh row: Traub, S., Glennan, T., Rosser, R., Frank, W ., Smith, C. T., Milner, S., Dowling, F., Paragamian, V., Umeadi, C, Cooper, P., Warthin, K., Smith, D. H., Todd, H., Tice, D., Reynolds, C, Rowley, L. 46 II Penseroso You cringe up to Commons half an hour late and hope that no one has looked for the papers yet. The battered wooden box that used to be such a mystery now contains a succinct note; Please bring your paper to my office. The debate continues as to who serves the best refreshments, whether it is easier to stay awake in the afternoon or eve- ning, whether it is possible even to get to a morning seminar. Worst of all are the seniors, who talk about running off the paper in two hours, on the carbons, of course . Transportation Policy The Enormous Room There are differences in course, too. With the decreasing number of people in class it becomes increasingly difficult to cut, or to go to sleep unobtrusively. This year you finally give up Sunday night supper, (it has never yet been worth eating, and is unlikely to be- come so in your lifetime) and buy a hotplate. A can of soup makes a very acceptable sub- stitute augmented by what ' s left of Friday ' s package from home. What Price Glory? Treadmill to Oblivion Sanctuary This is the year in which you ' re a big wheel if you ' re ever going to be one. This is the chance to put into operation all those wonderful ideas that no one else but your girl ever wanted to listen to. You ' re a Phoenix editor, or join the student council, or write a play, or head MEC, or your fraternity, and it doesn ' t take long to discover the banes as well as the boons of such a position. You come through it with perhaps nothing more profound than the conviction that wheels are bound to go in circles. After three years you decide it ' s high time to go to the Haverford game, and there discover that too many other people had the same idea. It turns out to be rather a pleasant occupation, and crowds are certainly not in evidence at other athletic contests. It seems a little out of place to raise a solitary cheer to the far roof of the almost empty fieldhouse. You find that you recognize the regulars at Folk Festival. A curious breed, the folk, who look to have lived un- washed in cellars since last year. Birds of America 48 La Machine Infernale Yoga and Western Psychology Great Expectations When We Were Very Young Ideas and Men With April too, you begin to note the harried looks of the seniors, and feel some trepidation about this whole business of honors exams or com- prehensives. The sins of the junior shall be visited upon him as a senior. Am I really getting anything out of all this, will it ever hang together? Nevertheless you join the general ' migration from Commons to the front lawn. The spring sports, penny pitching, croquet, and walks in the lushness of Crum are obviously one of Swarthmore ' s main attractions, not to be given up for mere studying. So, once again you blunder your way through to June, still triumphant if slightly battered. 49 Making Capitalism Work You have always looked forward to being a senior. You certainly feel different ; suddenly aged, but also very young. Half your friends are scat- tered, having become of that odious but fast approaching status, alumni. You have an odd feeling of being cut off from the other classes, you ' ve been through all that already. The life of the school is embodied in younger people, the issues that were burning last year are dead now. You ' re passe, you feel redundant in the situation. In defense you withdraw into your own class, to those people who feel the same way, and try to forget the increas- ing estangement from everyone else. In a way it isn ' t difficult; a whole new field of speculation has opened, the problem of after college rears it head. You ' re tired of the academic round, but will your degree get you a job? Wouldn ' t it be wonderful to take a world cruise, or even a few months on the Left Bank ; anything to get out of this rut ! Graduate school is the simplest way out, but, oh . . . filling out those fellowship applications. Surely I ' m too young to be thrust out into the world? I don ' t feel in the least like Horatio Alger. You remember that most of the alumni you met last time you were in New York were working in Macy ' s, and you shudder. The Decline of Competition 50 Diamonds and brides ' magazines of great sophistication are much in evidence, and when you open the paper you find yourself turning to the society page to discover the latest engagement among your friends. You shrink from old friends and relatives whose first question is, And what are you planning to do next year? There are compensations of an academic sort. Things correlate; all that you have learned begins to fall into a coherent whole. You think with awe of all you are going to know by the end of this year, how integrated it will be — and how soon you will forget it. You discover the advantages (to both sexes) of living in Worth. The dis- advantages become apparent too, the fire alarm bell which you answer only every other month, those miserable misshapen planks they call ironing boards. Theory of Eiior A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man Dynamics In Collection you ' ve worked up to the position of see and be seen. They take pictures for the Halcyon and you had never dreamed your face could look like that, or your ex- pression could be quite so inane. In October there comes the Alumni Dinner, to which you go in the hope of avoiding Friday night fare. This, of course, is impossible, but you do find yourself being addressed as though the next six months, and exams in May were mere formalities and you were an alumnus already. It doesn ' t look quite that way from where you stand. 51 The Age of Innocence One day you discover that you are speaking longingly of the good old days , that it ' s rather a lonely existence at the top. Christmas comes, your last Christmas at Swarthmore. You boil briefly about all the money it costs to light the library Christmas tree, but decide privately that it looks rather nice. Then it is the second semester, your last semester. The Art of Writing: Volume I Volume III You begin this last semester by getting sick and spend a week fretting under the calm unhurried eye of Dr. Bowie and his cohorts. Thank heaven it ' s not mono., anyway. Work, work, work, is there any way to make yourself enjoy it? Making yourself do it is next to impossible. The re- assuring argument about the danger of over-study begins to sound rather hollow. A sort of hibernation process overtakes everyone, you stake a claim to a lodge, or a room in Trotter, emerging only to eat and read letters from graduate school and prospective jobs. Another new task is working your wardrobe into shape for interviews ; how to convince some- one that you are old enough to be employed, that you are a sober, in- dustrious, bright, and intelligent prospect. The ultimate ridicule is boning up in the College Outline Series for the graduate record exam. Swarth- more students never do well, the approach is different here. (sic) Volume IV Utilitarianism 53 Les Jeux Sont Faits It is obviously necessary that you stay and get some solid work done over spring vacation. The campus is like a deserted resort, the weather is balmy, other people seem to be working hard, but somehow you don ' t get as much done as you had hoped. Sometimes even the worm turns, and parties are better than ever. Do you remember sitting in the periodical room with a bottle of whiskey in one pocket, and rum in the other? And they sort of gurgled as you walked. Peonle have begun counting the hours until exams : ridiculous, of course, but the number sends a shiver down your spine. It is incumbent upon you to take advan- tage of the senior prerogatives. Flow- ers in the room are always pleasant, and one day you climb Clothier tower. The steps are precarious, the top is draughty but the view is marvellous. May, and the cataclysm is almost UDon you. It ' s a relief that this isn ' t the year when they dance around the maypole, you don ' t feel in the least rustic or carefree. The sun always shines on Parents ' Day, you wonder what will happen if it rains for Graduation. J The Keys of the Kingdom So near and yet so far . . . Inevitably they come. Ineradicable impressions of Hall gym shaken by forty typewriters, the dead silence in Friends ' Libe, the brief respite, the ex- aminers, two weeks in which you ' re sure you didn ' t sleep and can ' t remember eating are stamped on your mind. Then it ' s all over but the shouting. Swarthmore is turned into an immaculately kept rendez vous for alumni, parents and seniors. The porch is painted, the lawns clipped almost away, the floors waxed. You pack the accumulation of four years with wild thoughts of hiring a moving van to convey it home. Out go the second hand books, the Economics notes, lab manual, pock marked notice boards, broken down lamps, and the chair that cost three dollars so long ago. You begin collecting addresses and think how soon you will be flung to the four winds. At the end you don ' t know quite whether to laugh or to cry; perhaps you do both. You ' re an alumnus ! This is the end and the beginning : Commencement. Brave New World Interpretation of Dreams Quo Vadis? eniat JAMES ATKINSON Westmont, Neiv Jersey History A bounding, breathless approach to life . . .

STUDENT mmi student Council President John Tyson During the Spring semester the Student Council directed itself to a matter of international scope with regard to the proposed trip of a group of editors of Soviet youth and stu- dent newspapers to the United States. Unfortunately their visit never took place. The project proved, however, Swarth- more ' s ability to co-operate successfully with other colleges. Several problems were dealt with within the college, includ- ing the reorganization of the Halcyon, and granting permis- sion for the colle ction of pennies for Viet Nam. The Coun- cil reviewed its relationship to the SAC and the Student Council Committees, and provided for expediting Council election proceedures. During the Fall semester another matter of international concern was discussed. This was the exchange of material with Indian and Russian universities. The sessions on the Fraternity discrimination issue succeeded in attracting a large number of auditors, as forum, jurisdiction. Kappa Sigma, and the Rutgers Plans were discussed. MEC was re- evaluated, the straits of the Budget Committee considered, and the Curriculum Committee Report issued by that body. 100 In the fall of 1954, the Student Council decided that Coun- cil members should thereafter serve as the student repre- sentatives on the Student Affairs Committee. In deliberations on revision of the car rule, the Committee developed a spirit of partnership in community policy- making. When virtually unanimous agreement was reached on a new car rule, the Administration accepted the Commit- tee recommendation as the sense of the community. Early in its second semester the S.A.C. set up a Car Com- mittee with wide discretionary authority to enforce the newly revised car rule. There followed a series of complex judicial cases which resulted in the expulsion of one student and probation for another. When policy-making was resumed by the Committee, it was on the question of personal coun- seling and responsible leadership in the men ' s dormitories. With the exception of one judicial case, the Fall semester of 1955-56 was devoted entirely to the long postponed re- quest for re-evaluation of College policy on co-ed open houses. The Committee recommended a modification of open house regulations, providing for more frequent and informal visitation, but under more responsible supervision than had been the practice previously.

I ,T BLe!-lj I Arising from the ashes of its many unfor- tunate predecessors, the 1956 Halcyon got itself a typewriter, some paper, and a light- bulb, and ventured bravely forth into the un- known. The historic Reorganisation sup- posedly turned the Halcyon from a burden on the senior class into a triumphant creation stemming from the efforts of the whole school, and left the editors a clear though tortuous road ahead. Thus the dedicated souls of the ' 56, mind- ful of the archaic inscription upon the office walls about Norm beating his staff, set out to produce the impossible: a book that met its own deadlines. Needless to say, the road was fraught with dangers. After hur- dling such barriers as Council Appropria- tions, Administration Supervision, and Phoe- nix Articles, these same souls, dogged, if less dedicated, squeezed out a layout, some copy, some pictures. The result goes under the name of the 1956 Halcyon. Mace to Schoeman: But if we blow up the pictures we won ' t need so much copy. Editor-in-Chief Literary Editor Makeup Editor Photography Editor.

Phoenix wheels : Gross, P., Goslin, D., Christy, D., Schnore, T., Bruhn, B. i 114 ' So what if it ' s wrong — it ' s great! Can we quote you on that? Franz, this will never fit on the wall. It ' s business as usual in the Phoenix office in the murky bowels of Parrish. Each Tues- day the old bird, now struggling through its seventh decade, rises to its feet with a feeble flapping and gives forth the most esoteric of the campus news. This year ' s policy throws the Phoenix into the midst of a sen- sational issue-a-week campaign, with its crowing ranging the scale from fraternities to open-houses (but overlooking the student council elections). The weekly editorial page carries an embarrassment of epistolary riches ; a sign that the Phoenix upholds its proud boast of nothing too hot to print . And with all this, the Phoenix carries yet another distinction with pride — it ' s the only thing at Swarthmore that gets out on time. Heading this year ' s brood were Sherry Hessler and Franz Gross, first and second semester editors, respectively. What can we say? The Phoenix speaks for itself, loudly and regularly. 115 W.Sl.I. SN wheels, in the process of turn- ing: Chief Engineer Rosi, Station Manager Shimansky, and Techni- cal Director Ayi-es. You may think things were rough for you in ' 55 but wait till you hear the sad tale of SN. After sailing along these many years oblivious to the demands of the outside world, SN was rudely awakened in the spring by a note from the FCC gently reminding it of such things as rules and regulations, and mildly hinting at revocation of its operating license. So, for the first semester of the new year, the station sat idly back on its trans- mitter and awaited the needed adjustments. Led by Station Manager Judy Shimansky and Technical Director Art Ayres, SNers succeeded in bringing their broadcasting sig- nal back from the wilds of distant Chester and getting it all the way over to Parrish for the Fall semester. After that there was at least a partial return to normal aided and abetted by other board members Craig Ash, C. T. Smith, Gene Gertler, and Peter Rosi. With a new crop of eager freshman recruits acting with typical freshman resolution, prospects for the station started looking up. At last count though, the magic word still seemed to be FM.

THE LIT The Lit continued to expand in its post- Esmerian era. Proof of its growing impor- tance in Swarthmore ' s cultural life was the bold coup of the Flit. When a publication is either imitated, or, as in this case, satirized, it has arrived. Avoiding overconfidence, how- ever, the staif of the Lit worked on in a spirit of humility. The high points of ' 55 season were the controversial P.M. editorial, the dynamic but unpolished New Writing issue, and as usual, the poetry and one-act play contests. The magazine was also pleased to hear that Valerie Worth ' s story The Climb, which appeared in the February issue, was pub- lished recently in Neiv World Writing. Although there was no Lit party in the Spring, the staff grew with bounding leaps in the Fall. After a slow start and a brief period of reorganization, work began on sev- eral big plans. These included the articles about Russia, the letters from Swarthmor- eans at Oxford, and the exchange program with literary magazines at other colleges. The Lit, so the story goes, faces the future with longing and no little innocent bliss. Editor Carola Hamburger Helen Sarbey and Steve Gilborn Dave Steinmuller and Eric Osterweil in conference. The cast party 118 L.Ti. The Ladf ' s Not for Burning ?? Dead, am I? I has the respect to ask you to give me coahberation of that. The Little Theatre Club, under the direc- tion of Barbara Lange and presidency of Carol Beaumont, had a varied and profitable year. Pirandello ' s Six Characters in Search of an Author was chosen as the spring pro- duction. This ' experimental ' play was done without scenery, and with minimum use of costume and makeup. The characters were played by Phil Fanning, Barbara Behnke, Karen Hultzen, David Hamilton, John Starr, and Elizabeth Ylvisaker. In spite of all we ' ve heard about child actors, Elizabeth was the most patient member of the cast. The actors were headed by Chris Lehmann-Haupt, Sarah Giddings, and Nick Cottrell. A success at Swarthmore, the show was later taken to Haverford and Lincoln, giving the actors an opportunity to experience various different audience reactions. The Evenings of November 4th and 5th saw the performance of The Lady ' s Not for Burning, by Christopher Fry, the fall pro- duction. Two tense evenings of try-outs re- sulted in the casting of Helen Sarby and Steve Gilborn in leading roles. Other major parts in this blank verse play were taken by Karen Hultzen, David Steinmuller, Paul Got- leib, and Christopher Lehmann-Haupt.

The cast of ten, supplemented by a chorus of fifty-two and an orchestra of twenty-one, began work in February under the pains- taking, if somewhat frenzied direction of Henry Gleitman. After weathering such behind-the-scenes problems as black wigs for everybody and Don ' t you girls know that all Japanese women are flat-chested! , the op- eretta was heard by a capacity crowd for three nights and was presented a fourth time at a command performance. The criminal cried as he dropped him down . . . Professor Gleitman And I am right, and you are right, and all are right as right can be. The Mikado was Paul Noyes; the trouba- dour Nanki Poo, Lincoln Potter; Koko, Chuck Torrey ; Pish Tush, Roger Abrahams ; Poo Bah, Eric Osterweil ; Yum-Yum, Delores Gaskins; and Katisha, Barbara Fassett. Diane Wagner and Deborah Smith were the other two little maids from school. Kit Lucas was musical director, lights and costumes were by Pete Jurkat and Lois Glass, and set design by Chuck Torrey. For he ' s going to marry Yum-Yum! And on no consideration, would I kiss you fondly thus. , A little play is a lot of work. From the stagemen to the stars, from the two producers to the four piano pounders, the company of Dot ' s Before My Eyes tossed together time and talent to come up with success. The script was written by Ron Axe, Roger Le ien, and Bill Chapman during the summer and the d vindling hours before the manuscript deadline. It raced through fifteen scenes waving the standard but still startling prospect of a coed col- lege playboy being caught in the tender trap, with the intriguing sub-plot of a college professor en- listing the aid of his students to run for office against a corrupt local machine. (The last reminis- cent of a similar attempt by Swarthmore ' s Political Science professor, Mr. Mangone, several years ago). Mike Rosenfeld ' s music, which would sound good played on a tuba and a bongo drum, was executed beautifully by the largest pitcrew yet recruited for a Hamburg Show. The lyrics of Ron Axe alternately enveloped the play in warmth, and turned the stage into a crucible of sordid doings. ' Ohh, Iggykins! HilMeURG SHOW Politics in Pol-i-tics.

Josh White Jean Ritchie FOLK FESTIUL Is it an aspect of Folk mores to defy punc- tuality? Representatives of such different species of folk as Jean Ritchie and Josh White (and his family) both managed to keep their audiences waiting. The caller from Oklahoma seems to have arrived on time al- though it is difficult to be entirely sure since a square dance has no such definite boundar- ies as a concert. It is certainly true that jam sessions, perhaps the central observance of Folk society, have no boundaries at all of time or place, and were quite as usual this Folk Festival, indeed more so than on some colder weekends.

However, within a week or two, the lack of hitting, fielding, and the other essentials of a winning ball club soon became apparent and the nine proceeded to drop the final eleven games on their schedule. The sparkplug of the squad was fiery sec- ond baseman Kenny Giles who surprised everyone by clouting the ball with continual success and ending up on top of the batting race with a .309 average. The next three men. Captain Paul James, center fielder Chuck Cooper and shortstop George Van- Hart were clustered together just above the .200 mark. Strikeouts were a pretty popular commodity with everyone throughout the year, and power was hard to find. I Consistent Kenny Giles, the team ' s leading hitter, slams another timely safety. BiSEeiLL Baseball, first row: Hamilton, D., Giles, K., Domi- nick, B., James, P., Captain, VanHart, G., Criswell, S., Wade, G. second row: Coach Robert H. Dunn Witt, R., Argo, W., Ellis, B., Braniff, B., Richter, W., Bryan, B., Axe, R., Senior Manager. Giles blocked from the plate on an attempted squeeze play against Lehigh in the season ' s opener. Roger Witt shows his form with a single. The two big games of the year, the wins, were those against Lehigh and LaSalle. Vet- eran Paul James pitched a solid seven hitter to stop the Engineers in the opening game. A triple by Giles, the only Swarthmore triple in 1955, plus his 2-run single in the seventh highlighted the contest and gave the Garnet enough runs to withstand a desperate ninth- inning rally by Lehigh. After losing on a no- hitter up at West Point, despite a beautiful pitching job by freshman Dave Hamilton, the locals returned to pull a surprise upset over a good LaSalle ball club. Bill Dominick was the victor in this one. Though the squad appreciated the constant inspiration and support of avid faculty ad- visor Mr. Hordern, the rest of the season failed to produce any victories. Nevertheless, the fans were furnished a lot of entertain- ment by fence-leaping Cooper, who caught three opposition home runs during the year, by the smooth-fielding gracefulness of VanHart, and by the slow slow-ball floated toward the plate, often with surprising suc- cess, by Wes Argo. Captain Paul James has reason to shout as he crosses the plate with another Garnet tally. BASEBALL  _ Hffl Sir.

LACROSSE The lacrosse squad was hampered by the graduation of half the starting lineup, but with the help of Coach Ave Blake ' s inspir- ation and some early competitive experience, they were able to finish the season with a very respectable five-win, five-loss record. The defense, consisting mainly of Captain Gene Heaton, Howie Hallowell, Dick Burtis, and Frank James was the strongest part of the squad. On the offensive side, two attack- men, Carter Reynolds and Larry Handley, and midfielder Tom Simkin tied for scoring honors with 13 goals apiece. Credit must also be given to Mel Jones, who led in assists, and to the very effective goalie, Jim Davis. A few flashes of exceptional play were seen during the season. Against Drexel, Rey- nolds and Jack Finkelstein each tallied three consecutive goals to give Swarthmore its first victory. Tom Simkin ' s wild day against Stevens when he scored half of the team ' s ten points was also outstanding.

Freshman star Nat Young shot consistently in the 70 ' s to compile the only individual winning record (6-3) and lead the golfers through many fun-filled, relaxing, if not always victorious, afternoons. Captain Dave Wilkison, Stu Silvers, and Fred Par- sons also played some sharp golf, each winning four of their matches. In general, the opposing forces were too well- balanced and experienced for the Garnet, as the home squad dropped seven of their nine contests. The wins came over LaSalle and Drexel. The La- Salle encounter was almost a shutout, but genial George Popky ran into continual poor luck, his op- ponents baffling shots, and darkness to drop the only point. The play against Army and Penn was also notable. With Young and Silvers winning, we scored against the Cadets for the first time in years, and a week later almost pulled ofl a tremendous upset against powerful Penn before succumbing, 4 to 3.

It was a good brand of spirit and determination that enabled the team to win two of their eight contests. One of the most interesting events of the season was Coach Lew Elverson ' s new stra- tegic modification of the single wing attack that was dubbed the flying wing. This wide-spread formation met with frequent success thanks largely to the accurate pass- ing arm of Co-captain George VanHart. Other backfield stalwarts were tailback Ron Sutton, who led the team in scoring with four touchdowns, hard-charging Sam Criswell, who became noted also for his brilliant de- fensive play, shifty, wingback Nate Price, and nimble fullback Jack Finkelstein. Line play was led by Co-captain Stan Spitzer, guard Bill Zimmerman, and ends Blaine Braniff and Pete Durkson. A determined crew breaks forth from shadows of Martin.

Tied 6-6 at half- time, Swarthmore exploded for four touch- downs within six minutes in the second half for the 33-12 win. The scores came on three VanHart short passes, a nine-yard run by VanHart and a sixty-yard gallop by Sutton. The next opposition, Hamilton, was too pow- erful ; they completely outrushed the Garnet on the ground and intercepted seven passes in the bargain. Then came Ursinus, the highpoint of the year, as an aggressive Swarthmore rose up in an unusually tough and potent manner to subdue the highly favored Bears, 7-0. The Garnet upset was led by Criswell and a team effort of alert defensive play. It was marred, however, by the loss via injury of Zimmer- man and Hank Winde. Wise guidance on a crucial point. The rest of the season tells a rather dismal story of four defeats as the speed and power of the opposition usually overwhelmed the Garnet early in the game. The finale against Haverford displayed the usual thrills of tra- ditional rivalry amidst a continuous snow- fall, but the amazing breakaway play of the Ford co-captain Bill Ortman, who scored twice and personally outrushed the whole Swarthmore team with 143 yards, was too much for the Garnet. Participating in their last encounter for Swarthmore were seniors VanHart, Spitzer, Finkelstein, Howie Hallo- well, and Harry Roeder.

HOCKEY The loss of many hard-at-work seniors was made up by an unusual batch of fresh- man players who effectively sparked this year ' s hockey team. With Captain Jessica Heimbach and returning seniors Carol Getz, Jane Holt, Caro Luhrs, Ginny Hess, and Kathy Hayes, as well as a strong set of underclassmen, the team played hard and well. All opponents were given a run for their money, with the first three games all moral, if not numerical victories. Undaunted by the constantly changing temperatures, and helped by Putty, even though she was going abroad with the Ail-American team, the players rallied beautifully and finished the season winning four of the seven games. Carol Getz and Ginny Hess shared honors as goalie and Judy Grace was the aggressive center forward. Our coaches were not the only celebrities of the season, for Jess Heim- bach went on to make the All-College Team Two, and both Judy Grace and Pat Blake placed on Team Four.

BlSKETBilLL The Garnet cagers showed frequent signs of being a winning ballclub during the early weeks of the past season. Dick Madison, the new coaching import from Chester High ' s championship teams, worked well with his new material, and the result was one of the best balanced clubs seen at Swarthmore in years. However, when it was all over, a few injuries and some close losses had put the skids on the win column, and the final tally was 4-12, a slight im- provement over 1955, but still somewhat below that .500 mark. The main features of the strategy were the tight and effective zone defense, the occasional use of possession-type ball, and the ability of any one of a number of men to chalk up the big score on any given night. Co-Captain Bob Fisher was the mainstay of the defense, as he consistently controlled the boards and blocked opposition attempts to score. This was particularly noticeable in the Delaware and Ursinus wins. The swift ballhandling necessary for good possession 157 Jim Miller Maish Davidson Try Wieland Roger Witt play, seen so rarely here during recent years, was probably used most effectively against Lehigh, and almost resulted in an upset be- fore the Garnet was squeezed out, 49-45. The offense saw six different men alter- nate in leading the scoring parade on vari- ous nights. The big man however was soph- omore Kent Greenawalt, whose deadly accuracy saw him lead the squad in field goal percentage (41.4 ), foul try percent- age (82.8%), and total points (235, an aver- age of 14.7 per game). Greenawalt dumped in 98 markers in the last four games to reach this total and forewarn next year ' s oppo- nents of the man to watch. Other scoring leaders were Robby Wright (100, 12.5), Fisher (198, 12.4), and Jim Miller (144, 11.1). 158 Greenawalt drives through Ursinus for two. Set for a possible rebound in the Hopkins win. Davidson ' s fighting ability pays off. A brief panorama of the season ' s mem- ories recall Greenawalt ' s befuddling drib- bling and driving resulting in the Hopkins win, Fisher ' s 26 points and the spark-plug defensive play of Co-Captain Maish David- son who stole the ball and tallied three times in the closing minutes of the Ursinus win, the last minute loss to PMC at Chester, the thriller over Delaware, the 69 points scored against Swarthmore in two games by Dela- ware ' s deadly little red-headed set shot art- ist, Jim Smith, and lastly but by far most valuable, the brilliant see-saw struggle which ended the season in a blaze of glory at Haverford with a hardearned 80-73 triumph. Wieland ' s defensive grip fools ' fords. Modern ballet lesson with Haverford. Miller clears Weigert for a goal. r cr WRESTLIIG The consistent performances of Tyson, Ruben, Hawley, and Prewitt were the main factors contributing to a 4-5 mat record in 1956, one of the more successful seasons in recent years of Swarthmore wrestling. Among the outstanding matches to be re- membered are the hard-fought uphill deci- sion over PMC after trailing 11-3, and the one-sided 31-5 romp over the Drexel Dragons. The rise of Steve Rubin . . . after a quick pin in the Hopkins match. Wres ' tling at 123 lbs., Rubin re- corded six big wins during the year.

The back- ground: an advertisement for California oranges. Coach Jim McAdoo ' s swimming team won four of their last six meets to round out a very respectable 4-4-1 season. The strongest swimming seen was in the free- style events, where Co-Captain Dick Gam- mon captured six firsts in the 220 yard sprint, and the 400 yard Freestyle Relay squad was victorious in all nine meets. The latter event, an important one since it is the concluding event of the meet, featured the strokes of Co-Captain Chris McMurtrie, Gammon, Chris Shaw, and Norm Bass, with Connie Lattes frequently filling in for one of these. Solid scoring power was also pro- duced by Shaw and Bass in the 200 yard Individual Medley, Bill Waddington in the Breaststroke, and Franz Gross and Ted Keenan on the diving board.

The HALCYON has in the past been published as a junior yearbook; it now covers the senior year. A year has inevitably been left out in the process; therefore in this supplement we are attempting to outline some of the major activities of fall and winter, 1954-55. We ore sorry to have to omit so many items of consider- able importance, but, due to the limitation of time and funds, we are able to devote only twenty pages to the events of these months. The PHOENIX, WSRN, fraternities, musical and dramatic productions, and sports were given priority as longest established and of widest interest. We do not wish to disparage at all those organizations which could not be compassed in this brief review. Their regular work and special projects contributed to campus life at least as much as those groups we have included. Among the events of this period we make passing men- tion of: The PHOENIX ' seventy-fifth anniversary, the McCarthy Petition, ' ' Speed Up, Bridge OutI winner of the One-Act Play Contest, the single issue of the OBSERVER, WSRN ' s temporary defeat by the Federal Communications Commission, the car rule, the Hurricane Hazel, and last, but not least, the food poll. We have tried here to touch swiftly on a few high points of this semester, so that it may not go unrecorded. We regret that we have not been able to do justice to the period, and hope that you will bear with our attempt. 168 L. to R.

STUDEiT COUICIL The fall of 1954 was an exciting and historic one for the Student Council. Preparation of a handbook on develop- ment, structure, and functions of the Swarth- more student government was undertaken. Many an old Phoenix was dusted off in the search for burning issues of the past that might give students perspective on t he de- velopment of our student government. A delightful experience for Council officers was the visit of the President and Vice-Pres- ident to speak on improving inter-college relations at Haverford, just prior to the traditional football game. Perhaps the at- tractiveness of the Vice-President was re- sponsible, but, at any rate, the meeting was a very cordial affair. Some community spirit glimmered when student work crews responded to a Council request for help in cleaning up the Campus after Hurricane Hazel, and again when the Council instituted a Community Carol Sing. The carol sing was complete with outdoor lighted tree and snacks afterward in faculty homes. Supported by an opinion poll of the pre- vious spring. Council extended an invitation to visit Swarthmore to a group of Soviet ed- itors of newspapers for youth. It was decided to encourage other colleges to extend similar invitations, and to coordinate such invita- tions. Careful Council publicity and lengthy correspondence attempted to bring about this opportunity for mutual understanding. In an endeavor to improve communica- tions among members of the administration, faculty, and student body, and to seat elected student representatives in central positions of community policy making, Council mem- bers replaced appointed students on the Student Affairs Committee. In spite of the increased size of the Committee, Council members realized a great measure of part- nership with the administration in commun- ity policy making. The Committee ' s virtual unanimity in liberal modification of the car rule was considered an acknowledgment of possibilities for individual and group re- sponsibilty in the student body. 169 PHOEIIX EDITORIAL STAFF Judith Kapp, ' 06 Chris Lehmanii-Haupt, ' 56 Editors-in-Chief Gretcheii Mann, ' 56 Managing Editor Sherry Hessler, ' 57 Assignmfmt Editor Fran King, ' 56 ,.

II 174 Look Ma, they made me a Musician. uu Music has always played an important role on the Swarth- more campus ; the Fall and Winter of 1954 were no excep- tion. In addition to the regular band performances at foot- ball games, the informal student concerts in Bond, and the Hamburg Show, students staged the annual Christmas con- cert in Clothier, December 16. Featured in the program were a series of madrigals and carols executed by the Mad- rigal Chorus led by Robert Adler, and three Bach cantatas, jointly performed by the College Chorus and the Orchestra conducted by James Sorber. Notable among the profession- al concerts presented here were those by the Mannes-Gim- pel-Silva Trio, Wolf Wolfsom and Lily Dumont, E. Power Biggs, and Bob Mason and his Dukes of Dixie. 175 FRITRRIITIKS DELTA UPSILON Top Row: Hall, F., Preston, T., Kessler, D., Atkinson, P., Dann, M., Winde, H., Durkson, P., Miller, J., Robart, M., Ellis, R., Sales, E., Simkin, T., Simkin, P.
