It was primarily due to their foresight, their faith, and their lovalt ' that Yale has become the great institution that she is today. And if Yale is to li e in the uncertain years that lie ahead, her sur ' i al will most assuredly rest on their shoulders.

Minutes later an academic procession consist- ing of President Griswold, President Emeritus Seymour, President Conant of Harvard, and Lord fhilifax of Oxford LIniversitv, to men- tion onI a lew, slowK emerged from the building. Marching in the autumn sun through a crowd of perhaps nine hundred interested spectators, the column uound its way to Woolsey Hall to open ceremonies in honor of Yale ' s 250th anniversaiT. Inside, a large croud, including many standees, saw on the stage one hundred per- sonalities, among them Senator Robert Taft, who had recently announced his candidacy for Republican nominee in the coming presi- dential campaign. Also included on the stage were ilie members ol tlie Yale Corporation, delegates from thirty ' -eight sister institutions, and the masters of the ten residential colleges, as well as many others. Throughout the cere- monies there was an air of excitement, per- haps generated more by the squads of reporters, newsreel and television teams, than by bonafide members of the proceedings. The exercises opened with a prayer by the Right Reverend Henry Knox Sherrill and a song by the Yale Glee Club, Now Praise We Famous Men. Then President Griswold out- lined the histor - ot Yale from its conception at a meeting of Congregational ministers in September, 1701, at the home of Reverend Russell in Branford. Of these ministers, all except one of whom were Harvard graduates, he said: Thus they renewed on American soil the purpose that had been transplanted to it by A dignitaries to W ' oo .svi for i otli ear celebrations the graduates of the ancient EngHsh universi- ties who Founded Harvard, as vc ha ' e re- newed it since their time throiij h our own graduates lor the institutions ot learning rep- resented here todav . . . Thev brought to us a living shoot from the tree of learning, whose shoots reach down through western culture to the lore and learning of ancient Greece. Following President Griswold ' s introduc- tion, Lord Halifax brought to Yale the greet- ings and good wishes of his own universitv. Then, launching into a more serious vein, Halifax stated that the experience of the last few years had irretrievably shattered the dream of any easv or mechanical character of human progress. On all fronts, he said, where half a eenturv ago, security seemed to be fullv entrenched— pohtical, scientific, philosophic, economic— it now only survives as a memorv ol what it once was, and evervwhere in the world, dragging its old anchors, it is moving at headlong speed through new and uncharted waters. If, he went on to sav, our social order todav shows signs of disintegration, this is. I believe, less through the destruction of war than througli the slow attrition of its rehgious and cultural foundations and through the im- pact of intellectual forces which have created a ' acuum without ha ' ing the capacity to fill it themselves. It was fairly clear to all that Halifax v as worried; worried that the old order and system might not be able to withstand the onslaught of new menacing ideologies unless, as he put it, this can be met bv the universities ' capac- it ' to turn out men who are educated and equipped to fulfill their functions as the intel- lectual leaders of society. President Conant of Harvard spoke next and proceeded to amuse the crowd by stating that it was with a considerable feeling of diflSdence that I address this thoroughly Yale audience. With the exception of the Goy- ernor of Connecticut, he remarked, I am perhaps the only Harvard man present. He explained that Yale had been founded bv Harvard alumni in 1701 because at that time alumni who found fault with their own colleges organized another instead of turning around and reorganizing their own. IIvuIk ' ii I lohloi hciirs Iviu ihuimd iilc unice. svtiibol of nciiilciiiic aittlioritr I ' lijccssidi! wheels pmt Hewitt fie, To many, this timely quip seemed to coincide with a newly published and highly contro- versial book about Yale. After stating that Yale and Harvard were the inventors of a unique institution, the American liberal art institution, he submit- ted that nowhere else, outside of the North American continent, in the English speaking world can institutions of this type be found. The famous educator then listed three ele- ments as being essential to the true function- ing of a university: the collegiate way of life, the advancement of learning, and training of the professions. But also from President Conant ' s speech leaked a few drops of concern. I could easily, he mentioned, dwell on the threats to the independence of all our universities, particularly to those that are privately sup ported; inflation, the strange tendency ol some foundations and potential donors to say that the day of endowments is gone and that we must live hand to mouth; and the unrea- soned attacks from those who fail to under- stand the significance of independent and free inquiry. But a birthday celebration is not a time for foreboding. On the contrary, it is a time for rejoicing. Harvard brings heartiest con- gratulations and, if I may say so, joins with parental pride the other institutions here as- sembled in wishing for Yale University con- tinued leadership and high distinction in the centuries that lie ahead. Leonard Bacon, class of 1909, deli ' ered his anniversary ode. While granting praise to the imi ersitv ' s illustrious history and leadership, he continued: Much has been won. ' hat worlils remain to win. Now and here peals the stroke ol the hour. Begin. After a hymn the program was brought to a close by Reverend Morgan Noyes, ' ho gave the benediction. The participants, in their multi-colored robes, then filed slowly out of the hall and dispersed in the milling crowd outside. That evening the alumni took over Fresh- man Commons for their dinner, forcing the Class of 1955 to seek nourishment in the college dining halls. The dinner began at 6:30 in the huge and especially decorated room. The speakers ' table at the west end of the room was backed by a huge Yale flai , which extended from ceiling to floor, and horn wall to wall. After the meal, Wilmarth S. Lewis, ' 18, addressed the gathering and described the perfect partnership between alumni ;ind their college as one that would permit the institution to administer personal affairs as they think best. This would be an act ol hiitli made in the spirit of partnership similar to the act ol hiith made h ' the Lini ersities in recent cars when they have sought, and taken, acKice Irom their graduates on matters on which they are better informed than the universities. It will do more harm if the graduates in- sist on hax ' ing the head ol Prolessor Jones scrx ' cd up to them on a charger, continued Mr. Lewis. Professor Jones may be a dolt; he may acK ' ocate tree lo e, tree worship, or sim- plilied spelling, but his uni ersil is a better jud e ol his competence as a teacliei ' than are its graduates. 1 i The partnership beHeves that our pri- vately endowed colleges arc essential to the intellectual and spiritual health ol this coun- trv, and that freedom from go ' ernmcnt direc- tion is vital to their continued existence. We alumni throughout the country give several million dollars each year to back up this be- lief. It would be a pitv if we nullified so much generosity by imposing our own wills on the university in ways that would destroy what we are seeking to preserve. The last speaker of the evening was Irving S. Olds, who perhaps gave the most significant speech of the evening. Like President Conant and Mr. Lewis, Olds feared government in- tervention in the affairs of private universities. LInlike his two predecessors, he offered a so- lution, support by private enterprise. Mr. Olds said that he was afraid that in- dependent universities were finding it increas- ingly difficult to keep pace with their tax- supported competitors. These competitors seemingly have an inexhaustible source of in- come, and today each of them, on the average, is receiving twice as much in subsidies as we are getting from private donations and be- quests. Abroad, in countries where education is wholly dominated by the state, we have seen the youthful minds of an entire nation subverted by ruthless and ambitious men to the barbarities of Fascism or to the cork screw convolutions of the Communist party line. That must not happen here. His cure for this situation, he explained, would be for American industry to support the privately endowed universities. To a limited extent, he stated, many corporations arc doing that today . . . But their power to contribute is limited by the statutes of the particular state in which each of them is in- corporated, and many state laws cast grave doubts upon the right of a corporation to do- nate the money of its stockholders unless the probability of immediate and direct benefit to the donor is clearly demonstrable . . . That is why they have not felt free generally to finance studies in the liberal arts and humani- ties, even though the most difficult problems which American enterprise faces today are neither scientific nor technical, but in the realm of what is embraced in a liberal arts education. ' The evening closed with the singing of Bright College Years led by a former Whif- fenpoof. Hundreds of white pocket handker- chiefs waved in the air in the traditional Yale gesture, while the waiters impatiently waited to clear the tables and floor for the morning ' s breakfast. More alumni talks, of a more business-like and informal nature, however, followed on Saturday. If the week-end proved anything, it was that on Yale ' s birthday, like on every- one else ' s, people praised the past, were glad things had come so well up to the present, and were apprehensive of the future. Significantly, this was the first time that so much time had been devoted to maintain- ing the status quo of independent universi- ties. Also significant was the fact that everyone seemed to think that President Griswold was the man to handle the job. If a struggle was coming, Yale was well prepared for it. As Mr. Lewis put it, What, we wonder, will Yale be like at the end of her first mil- lennium? Mr. Olds presents educational plan YALE LOOKS TO THE FUTURE 85,000,000 has heci! aUocated for new physics hiiihiina ivhicli iviU o ' lre much needed room for future projects M( Lore than often, looking to the fu- ture is merely a matter of discovering what hidden dreams and fanciful aspirations lie in people ' s minds. The dark strangers and long adventurous trips which eternally reappear in teacup prognostications are in truth lew and far between, and life more often than not slips hv in the humdrum of everyday existence. It would be pleasant to predict a Yale wal- lowing in funds cheerfully furnished by lich and generous alumni; an idyllic Yale with carefree students grouped around beer, sing- ing collegiate songs late into the night with naught to worry about save pocket money; a faculty abounding in adequate salaries, free time for personal projects, and unlimited aca- demic freedom. But this will not be the case. In a modern, utilitarian, struggling world be- set with fear and anxiety, Yale must fight for her very life. Yet this university is luckw for it can, to an extent, map out its own future. Under ca- pable guidance, she can set certain trends and plan her trip on the road ahead. Examining these trends, we find that, more and more, going to college is becoming a job as useiul in society as, for example, developing natural resources. The Yale of the future, to be able and allowed to exist, will be a Yale stripped of the indifference and of the tweed conserva- tism of a four-vear ' acation. The nation is showing its confidence in Yale by granting deferment from duties at the fighting front to those who stud ' and can eventually take their places in building up the country ' s might. It is showing its trust by making available funds for scientific fimds and improvement. The academic body of Yale along with other similar American in- stitutions is becoming a privileged group upon which the nation hinges a great many hopes for survival. Yale is meeting its responsibility by mak- ing its hicilities available as much as possible to all those who are worthy and can be ex- pected to contribute in their turn. The social scientists and philosophers are dropping their academic arguments to turn to the task of de- termining the basic factors of luunan be havior, and they are moulding men fit to be ff fiiia hUki I ' AiffifMk leaders in the communitv. The scientists as- sist in broadening the field ot atomic re- search and, with the help of a new cyclotron donated by the government of the United States, delve into nuclear mysteries. The literary scholars and linguists help in defining, nurturing, and preserving the culture and heritage of our civilization. In short, a battle is being waged against corroding new ideologies, and from all walks of lite, the best will come to Yale. Then from this uni ersitv will How men designated to lead the country through the troubled ' aters of international crisis. The engineers will de- ' ote themselves to keeping the countrv tech- nologically superior; humanitarians will have to guard our western civilization and Christian heritage from decay. Until the crises of the ner ' ous world are resoKed, Yale blue will put on o ' eralls. Yale proposes to set the trend in three ways: HER FACULTY SALARIES Of ob ious importance to any uni -ersitv is the quality of its faculty. Looking back, Yale has been fortunate in having teachers who could inspire their students. Silliman, Dana, Ciibbs . . . Whitney, Wool- sey, Marsh . . . Sumner, Keller, Day . . . Tinker, Phelps, Bcrdan . . . Chittenden, ' oodruff. Lull . . . Morris, Hcndrickson, Mendell . . . Adams, Andrews, Allison . . . Bacon, Porter, Torrev . . . Honfeld, Baldwin, Corbin . . . the Hadlcys, the Seymours . . . The list is long. These men were not drawn to Yale by chance, but rather they were attracted by the things that have always attracted teachers of merit: primarily good minds to train. Then they want opportunity, encouragement and facilities to carry out research in their Gelds. But also a teacher must be able to maintain reasonable living standards. The pressing need for increasing faculty salaries is obvious. For professors ' families, as for all others in their community, the cost of living has risen a good 70 percent since 1939; but professors ' salaries have increased only 20 percent. As late as 1951, the basic faculty pay ranged between $3,000 and $8,000. There ' s truth to the old quip, Pub- lish or Perish. Realizing her responsibility, Yale is rein- forcing her faculty by adding endowed pro- fessorships and by providing greater opportu- nities for research. Money flowing in from the alumni and the increase in tuition announced in Demember, 1951, will help the program. ENDOWED PROFESSORSHIPS As the Bureau of University De elopment said, ' Tcrpetuity lies in an endowed professor- ship. Icthyologists ivelcoiiie proposed liall of Fislics to be added to Peahodr Museum for display of aquatic life •i t! I Dciuolitioii of ramshackle buildings ' precedes cow- 1 strnction of new wing for Art Gallery ' pictured at bottom of page I Many years ago, the son ot 1 imothv Dwight, Yale ' s eighth president, joined with a number oF his friends in making what was tor those days a substantial gift to Yale to en- dow a professorship in theology. Thus was established the Dwight Professorship of The- ology and Philosophy of Religion. As part of the plan to fortify the faculty, at least twenty additional endowed professor- ships are scheduled to induce eminent schol- ars and teachers in all fields to devote their careers to Yale. For example, an endowed professorship re- quired and planned in biophysics to encour- age this ne v and ' igorous science— the application of the facts and principles of physics, such as electricity and radioacti ' e isotopes, to living things. ENDOWMENT FOR RESEARCH In the ne.xt twenty-five years, an immense amount of research will be conducted in Amer- ica upon such vast subjects, as individual be- havior and human relations, the conservation and improvement of democratic institutions, and the strengthening of the world economy. Yale plans to share in these vast studies, drawing from the genius of men in many varied fields. Although the University has the men, the tradition, and the knowledge to play a major part in the progress of this knowledge, funds are lacking to carry the enterprise. Many of the most gifted members of the faculty lack both time and the facilities for the project. Therefore, an appeal has been made to the alumni h)r support ot the proposed endow- SCHOUt Tom Pkiii-Siijc ill ' I mil! irii Weill li ' M WitJiout this neiv galleryi valuable niid interestm collections now stored i i basements might never he displaxcd to the puhli educaiioi Wore, Hie incread MlvcflVl keaiilv e I ' ale iias frojram, Wcit. ] skip flint cover a income ( luition. ment for research which will be used to pro- ' ide uninterrupted time to faculty members in order to complete research programs. It will also provide equipment and technical assistance and funds for publication. HER STUDENTS SCHOLARSHIP FUNDS To maintain the high scholastic and per- sonal qualities of her student body, Yale must continue unbroken the tradition of giving an opportunity for a Yale education to students of the highest caliber without regard to finan- cial status. Yet, to continue it in the face of War Memorial Scholarship fund in honor of those who gave their lives in the War. Through this, not only will the present standards be kept, but also it is hoped that Yale will be able to open its doors to more worthy students who can eventually make a contribution to the nation. GRADUATE FELLOWSHIPS By attracting and training superior grad- uate students, Yale can assure herself of excel- lent teachers and scholars and spread her influence throughout the country. But the same financial necessities which require in- creased scholarship funds have caused a Pierson-Saae Ouadrangle housing latest scientific , . v . apparatus will stand in Sach eiu Woods ' ■ ' m 2P educational costs is more difficult than ever before. The latest tuition rise, while reflecting the increased cost of educating a student, does not fully cover all expenses. As one of the most heavily endowed universities in the country ' , Yale has been able to maintain its present program, even so running into an annual deficit. The income of one specific scholar- ship fund given in 1926 was almost able to cover all of a student ' s expenses here. Today, income from the same fund barely covers tuition. The Alumni Board has decided to foster a critical situation with respect to graduate fellowships. In fact, Yale has lost in recent years a number of her most promising grad- uate students. The University is preparing to double the amount available for graduate fellowships, not only to assist candidates for graduate degrees, but also to enable exceptional scholars to ob- tain further professional training. AMERICAN STUDIES Launching into a new concept of educa- tion, Yale is presently sponsoring and will widen the scope of the American Studies 1 llllllill War Menional Schohv hip will he set up program. Until the present, special programs in American Studies have been offered to a small number of Yale College and Graduate Students, but now Yale proposes to broaden these programs to pro ' ide a more systematic planning and coordination ot courses in the origin and development ot our social, political, and economic institutions. First, the University will t)pcn the program to equip the average Yale graduate, who though not a professional scholar, often as- sumes the task of leadership in the commu- nity. As a second step, the Graduate School will make available a special division of Amer- ican Studies to men and women now teach- ing in public and private schools throughout the country. HER BUILDINGS A new physics building will be erected to enable Yale to fulfill its part in the war effort. Housing a cyclotron, Eli physicists, under contracts from the U.S. government, will at- tempt to smash new and unexplored atoms. Inasmuch as serious overcrowding exists in Plant Science, Microbiology, Zoology and Biophysics as well as Physics, the old Sloane Laboratory will be turned o ' cr to these branches. Besides the government contract needs, Sloan was built in 1912 when whole areas of research and entire subjects now on the curriculum were in their infancy. Besides such construction for scientific pur- poses, other buildings such as a Freshman Activities Center will be erected; this one cost- ing $600,000 will help large entering classes more fully adjust to Llniversity life. E ' en old Connecticut Hall will be affected as a new steel frame bolsters its sagging brick walls. Moreover, the Yale fish are not forgotten, for Peabody Museum is to be enlarged to house new and wonderful piscatorial specimens. But these buildings are tools, and in the final out- come, Yale will, as always, be measured by its men.

O ' Connar I (kv colleges BERKELEY COLLEGE diliei BERKELEY COLLEGE is named for Bishop George Berkeley of Clovne, Ire- land, one of Yale ' s first benefactors. In 1732 he conveyed his farm to the College to establish graduate scholarships, and a valuable collection of books for the College Library. Thomas C. Mendenhall ii. Master B, BERKELEY ' S squirrels mav be just an- other bunch of rodents to the rest oF the University, but to those who Hve in The Most Centrally Located College they are a very special group ot animals. And the asser- tion is undoubtedly true, because these squir- rels shared the lives oF the great and small in Berkeley throughout the whole oF the 1951- 1952 school year. In the Fall oF the year these little animals watched the college Football team under Len Allen get nosed out oF the intercollege cham- pionship only at the very last game of the season. They also were witness to the com- ings and goings oF Harry Simmons ' unde- Feated soccer team, that collection oF old pros headed by Berkeley ' s transatlantic ringer, Pat Alathews. They waited breathless For the point totals in the intercollege competition, and were proud to be Berkeley squirrels when they learned their college was first in the fall term standings. Their reaction to the other sides of college life was much less favorable. The wild touch football games of Chris Tyson, Sandy Ross, and the rest oF the South Court A. A. ruined many a well-buried nut and contributed to much oF the broken glass that got stuck in unwary paws. Football weekend blasts in nearly every entry did not help the squirrel insomnia problem in the least, and the late bridge games in 559 caused many a bushy tail to be wrapped tighter around the owner ' s ears. Artistically, Berkeley ' s squirrels received more uplift than the best of the Art School students. They got to know every last note of Deep Purple (concert version); they learned sartorial splendor a la Disraeli from Berkeley ' s famed ethnic polemicist, and they had an inside track on the world of the un- produced musical comedy. This last resulted in a severance of relations with the York Street squirrels. No Berkeleyite, rodent or human, was going to stand for a dead Greek displacing a Favorite son on the boards oF the Dramat. Winter brought snow and a lot oF sleep. Had our squirrels been up and around while the cold winds were roaring, they would ha e seen the same midnight oil bubbling away o er a bridge game that they had watched during the fall. Al Moody, Bill Wright, and Ugi Hinds were never ones to let cold weath- er prevent them from breaking up the shot- gun marriage between Lady Luck and Lou Ruckgaber. Had the Berkeley squirrels rolled OA ' er to escape the light of the gambling lamps, thcv would have seen their own plight re- flected in the lite of Brooks Banker. Neirs moguls Bill King and Dave Lee kept their roommate pleading for rest and quiet all fall while they devised new assaults on the Eng- lish language. Doug Johnston and Charley Davis had the same trouble with the late hours of Bill Cordes and Berkeley ' s own Rockey Morris, while Dick Delacretaz, Carl Copp, and Joel Saldinger had continual bouts with Jack Liddle ' s poetic efforts in the small hours of the morning. Every once in a while, the squirrels might have caught one of the Bishop ' s men study- ing. Midyear exams reminded us all that we are not divided into sheep and goats, but rather into those that know the answer and those that can make it look as if they knew the answer. Berkeley proved that it had a good representation in both groups, and as a result the different classes ' averages soared to new heights. Everv once in a while one of us read a book, or even wrote one, and our squirrels were again reassured that perhaps something more can come of all this than little numbers in the dean ' s office. By springtime the animals were running around once more and now had to be careful they wouldn ' t crash head on into a prostrate sunbather. Blankets, portable radios, and Skol became the most cherished possessions of a Berkeley inmate, and the squirrels weren ' t allowed to forget it. The nuts were covered by sweating bodies, antl the squirrel children took their afternoon naps to the strain of WYBC ' s music by fuzak. The touch foot- ball of last fall was thrown aside for tennis and baseball, and girls in shorts re placed girls in stadium boots. Change was every- where, and the squirrels knew it. Thev could see the new paint on Ray Wehle ' s car, and they noticed with jov that John French v ' as once more clad in seersucker. Beer was drunk in order to cool, not to ossify. Comprehensives blew through the seniors ' gaunt frames like the late wind of death, and all too many found that they could not stand. But the cheery faces of the newlv-promoted sopho- mores and juniors dispelled the gloom, and the Berkeley squirrels returned to their labors with a lighter heart.

A younger squirrel didn ' t know what Berkeley was, but from a Friendly middle-aged indi- vidual we got the observation that the college was a pleasant enough place that gave good Christmas parties. He was not of the opinion that Berkeley proved much, though it had been and could be much better, and finished up with the remark that if it hadn ' t been for the light-colored stone he would never ha e known he wasn ' t in Saybrook. As one who had seen so much of the college life during the past year, his words carry some weight. Berkeley was indeed a pleasant place to hang your hat and scrape your tin tray, but so were the other nine colleges. Some might say what ' s wrong with that, and the answer is nothing is wrong with it, so long as you don ' t pretend that the place is something else. At any rate, the squirrels were ours and nobody else ' s, but it takes more than squirrels to make a college plan. —George Roberts Athletics In the realm ot Inter-college athletics, the Bishop ' s Mitre continued to wave on high as the Berkeley legions eagerly took up the quest for their third straight Tyng Trophy Championship. The strong challenges by chief contenders Calhoun and JE fell short in the fall season, as the Mitres achie ed an unprecedented record of two champion- ships, in soccer and touch, and a second place to Calhoun in football. During the entire season Mitre forces tasted but one defeat in the three sports— a hardfought 7-0 loss to the bitter rival Calhoun in the football finale. Captain Len Allen and Coach Jim Ward led the weakened grid squad that was bul- warked in the line by Frank Colder, Herb Stevenson, Jim Grange, Rocky Morris, Ron Busch, Doug Johnston, Sandy Louchheim, and Sam Appleton. Quarterback Dick Reid directed the high scoring T backfield of Harry Storms, Bob Dickson, and Tom Neff. A post-season engagement produced a 27-0 win over sister house Dunster from Har- vard. Reid ' s passing accounted for most of the season ' s scoring. Soccer Captain Harrv Simmons surprised everyone by leading his squad to an unde- feated season. Clare College expatriates Pat Mathews and John Matthew teamed with Lew James and Chris Tyson to do most of the scoring while Rocky Morris, Howie Hob- son, Steve Wilson, and Dick Copp handled the defensive chores in fashioning Berkeley ;. first soccer title. Bob Kemble and Tom Noyes co-captained the Touch team to its first title also— and re- mained undefeated as well. They were sup- ported by John Johnson, Thomasson, Schae- fer, Dodson, and McCullough. Stu Schaefer beat out Bob McCullough and Sandy Ross in the Fall Tennis Tourna- ment to displav new strength for the tennis team that would be defending its title for the second straight year during the Spring. As the winter season began, Berkeley held on to a narrow lead in the Tyng race bv field- ing contending teams in all sports. The Peerless Leader Don Roche, cap- taining the basketball team, fielded a team of veterans seeking their third consecutive un- defeated season that included Bob Kemble, Doug Bickerstaff, Ross, Johnson, Milt Wi - char, Reid, Glenn Lipely, Wahlers, and Kap- lan. They employed a fast-break attack with e ery man capable of hitting the magic double-figures. Ugi Hinds managed the B squad, and found able, experienced hands in Bob Wallace, Noyes, and O ' Neil. Pat Mathews, Hank Brainard, Al Malabrc, Coleman, Manny, Miller, and Schaefer manned a rejuvenated squash team that was impressi ' e in early wins. A strong Berkeley Swimming squad tough t Calhoun and TD for first place and the clock for inter-college records. Captain Sandy Louchheim, Brooks Banker, Brouwer, Block, West, and Sutter were outstanding through- out the tough schedule. Jim Grange led an improved handball team composed of Harmon Leete, Thomasson, Miller, and ' ard, to the first division in the standings. The Boxing and Wrestling contingents again contributed numerous points to the Bishop ' s cause. Berkeley ' s representatixes on the mats were led by Bill Morrison, Ken Luther, Dave McKee, and Rowe, while in the prize ring Jesse Goodspeed and Russ Boner led the Maroon fighters. On arena ice, Berkeley Hockex ' didn t lare as well as other Mitre teams, but Captain Les Young, Fenton, Manny, Gray, and Follert produced a great improxement on last ' ear ' s low standing. As this year was being written. Mitre men- tors were already looking forward to the spring season, planning the drive that it was hoped would successfully retain the Cup. Uncle Tom iMcndenhall, coaching the crew, had Captain Appleton, Storms, Cook and others in the tanks early, working at their oars. A veteran sottball team was expected to be augmented bv needed pitching strength. Coach Dean Adeson promised great things from his baseball nine. He held high hopes for impro ' ed hitting power from NefF, Dick- son, Cordes, and Allen to support the experi- enced pitching staff oF Young, Ward, and Adeson. All in all, the Mitre athletic forces included () er half the college membership. Their spir- ited efforts throughout the early seasons had produced record high point totals. Despite their success, Berkeley was faced with the toughest fight in three years trying to con- tinue as guardians of the co ' etcd Tyng Trophy. —Charles Thomasson iig stretch iitider the BerkeJey basket hi fifth floor hall i aih , e ii ill ill iiii nil 11 ' ' iiii ' COLLEGE r- BRANFORD COLLEGE takes its name from the town where ten Connecticut Con- gregational ministers met in 170L and founded the Collegiate School which be- came Yale. It comprises the buildings in the southern half of the Memorial Quad- rangle. Norman S. Buck, Master I J , A ST summer, amidst stories oF govern- ment corruption and a potentially explosive Korean situation, Yale men began to struggle back to New Haven, bringing lamps, suit- cases, pictures, and all-too-fresh memories of summer vacation. But in spite of the prevail- ing apprehension about the international sit- uation, it was to business as usual for most ol us, at least until graduation when we would move out to live up to our bargains struck privately with Fate. We came to Branford to find it much the same as when we left it in the spring, except that the trees were flecked with yellow and red, and the crispness in the air carried a suggestion of football games and weekends to come. Sophomores Temple Brown, John Bjorn, Dave Coggins, and Dick Schreiber joined the Branford Council, which, under the leadership of Bill Stone and Frank Efinger, started making plans for the fall acti ' ities. We welcomed four new Fellows to our midst, Professor Erich Auerbach, Dr. Thomas Forbes, Lt. Colonel Stuart C. Wil- liams, and Mr. Robert Hall. In the beginning of October, the girls from Smith made their annual Mountain Day pilgrimage to New Haven and were well- received in Branford at the First Court Beer Party, organized bv Bob Petsinger, Art Mose- ley, Bob Hopkins, and Karl Heilman. Ac- cording to advance notice posters, a fiftv-cent contribution assured the donor all the free beer he could drink and the choice of one- hundred fifty hand-picked, guaranteed Queens. Well, there was a lot of beer . . . The sudden death of Ed Hoffman, one of Branford ' s Campus Guards, on October 19, shocked and deeply saddened us. We all knew Ed to be a good friend, always ready with a greeting and always fair in his deal- ings with us. When a rule making mandatory the wear- ing of coats and ties at dinner was intro- duced, it aroused some protest which took torm in a petition circulated by Dave Frank- lin, asking for a college-wide vote on the mat- ter. However, most of the college felt that the improved appearance was worth the trouble and accepted the change. In the elections for the UAC, we chose Jack MacArthur as our representative. All is siuiles when weekends turn Braiifurd into a co-ed college l ii;lit about this time, we began to notice tlic cflccts oi not having any maid service. With our parents coming up tor Parents ' Dav and the Colgate game, we had to pick up the acuum cleaner at the guard ' s office and do a little house-cleaning. It was surprising how much dust iiad collected in five short weeks. Brantord held its annual Fall Dance and Outing on the Dartmouth weekend in the beginning of November and, although a cold vind-dri en rain dampened the spirits ot most ot the spectators at the game, both events were successlul. Alter Thanksgiving, Yale Charities launched its annual drive, and Brantord, with Jack Tompkins as her Captain, met her quota. She was also the proud mother ot two Mirsitv captains, Joe Mitinger, Football, and Paul Dietche, soccer, while Bill Rhangos was elected as her representative to the Junior Prom Committee. The Wednesday before vacation, Branford had her annual Christmas dinner with singing by the Branford Glee Club and Christmas Music done in JefF Stoughton ' s own inimitable stvle. At the din- ner, Mr, Robert E. Lane and Mr. J. P. Trin- kaus celebrated their selection as Branford Fellows. We were saddened when we heard of the death of Bill Hegener just before vacation. His plane crashed in New Jersey, causing the death of all those aboard. Returning from the Christmas Holidavs, we found that e.xams were only a few days away and that we had a good bit of work to catch up on. Looking back on them, though, it seems that thev were o er and the new term had begun in no time. With it came a few resolutions to reallv hit the books this term and the like . . . Now our life became centered more on the college. Sam Lewis, Dick Adams, Steve Hos- mer, and Lee Gendler represented Brantord in the inter-college debating competition, while every so often we had a chance to at- tend the Branford Forum, planned this vear b C lark McConnell. Those of us who went to the Sundav atternoon teas given bv the Bucks louml them to be an cnioxable chanue 1 from the day-to-day routine ot college lite. Nearly everybody did read Lee Lurio ' s Tower Bidletin which came out weekly, sometimes— and at other times, semi-monthlv and tri- weekly. E.xams and graduation marked for most of us the end of the year and the beginning of a long-awaited summer vacation, but for each senior, they concluded forever the shortest, gladdest years of life. Some of the more note-worthy memories were: The Dart- mouth weekend blast in the middle entry of the Second Court with Norty Stevens, Dick Adams, Karl Heilman, Pete Coley, and Bob Egan leading the way through its three mood rooms, each with an individual drink; Presi- dent Pete Bronfman and his Doris Day Fan Club; Pete Sprague at work with his IBM Machine; the time you saw Hot Eeg ' s shadow; Bill Stone straining as he dragged Branford ' s Christmas tree into Saybrook Court early one morning before Christmas vacation. Woody Grumney whooping it up out there at short; Bob ' s ' eekly Feesh or meat, Mees- ter? ; the way we watched Branford ' s lady guests as they ran the gauntlet in the dining room; Colonel Michael L. Strong, Air ROTC, expounding the advantages of service life to a somewhat skeptical listener; the Nutcracker Suite reverberating through the dining hall at Sundav dinner; Talent Scouts Dick Schneider and Ralph Wieland rounding up eleven men for inter-college football games; Athletic Secretary Jules Wargo rounding up talent for any sport; Dee Penwell ' s exploits on the touch field; the Branford movie at the Bucks ' and its treatment of last year ' s gradua- tion; Dick Melchreit ' s articles in the Tower Bidletiii; Joe Mitinger ' s rep stripe tie; TV fights and grilled cheese sandwiches in the snack bar; Chuck Treuhold, the man who made flicking out a constructive occupation; Mrs. Wright ' s friendliness and cooperation; Bob DeVecchi lingering over the second cup of coffee; the feeling you got when you looked up at Harkness Tower around Christ- mas time when it was floodlighted. —John Keene A constant stream uf party-goers pass fierce gargoyles and memorial archways net B 3 ' ' Athletics Wi ITH the coming ot fall athletics and the incoming host of talented sophomores, Bran- ford was prepared to assert itself in the South League. Since they had captured the South League football championship the two pre ' i- ous seasons, their prospects were high for a repeat performance. The season started off with a roar as Silliman fell before the Tower- men by a 25-0 count. Davenport afforded the squad a good scrimmage as they too suc- cumbed by an equally impressive score. Thus far, Branford was atop the heap, but hearsay had it that JE and Saybrook were the teams to beat. With spirits dampened by a score- less tie with the Pierson Slaves, the squad took on a battling Saybrook aggregation. The hard charging play of the Saybrook line led to two blocked punts deep in Branford ter- ritory, and hope for the championship faded Ton; Wall deflcctiiileft jah as Branford came out on the short end of a 14-0 score. The last game o f the season with IE was a thriller. A win at that point would mean a second place tie tor Branford, and a championship tie between Saybrook and JE— a loss would mean third place for Branford, and the championship for IE. A large gathering of Branford rooters and equally interested members of the Saybrook team fought off the intermittent attacks of the weather as Branford fought off the at- tacks of the Spiders. JE went ahead 7-0; the score remained that way until the last quarter, when Branford fullback Ace Barclay broke away for sixtv yards and a touchdown. The all-crucial e.xtra point was missed, and the game, along with the South League cham- pionship, went to JE. The season was not so unimpressive as the 2-2-1 record might indicate, as the team came from behind to dump Kirkland House 19-6 in one of the many Yale College-Harvard House games. The scorin g punch was pro- ' ided by Dick Schneider, Hobart McVA ' horter, and Doug Seymour. The big surprise of the dav came when Hez Sprague ' s conversion was good. The heads-up play of Captain Ralph W ' ieland, Bob Petsinger, and Karl Wegner in the line; the stalwart line backing of Burt Peck and Gordy Long; and the alert sec- ondary defense of Pete Jackson, Jim Hanson, and Ace Barclay held Kirkland to a lone first quarter touchdown. The touch football team, with its scoring combinations of Murphy to Penwell and VVaskowitz to Ruth, had to be content with seventh place. After forfeiting its first two games, the soccer team gathered strength un- der the leadership of Art Manning to win two games, and the occupancy of seventh place, rather than the last place usually reser ' ed for Branford soccer teams. Forwards Hank Ruth, Pete Bronfman, and Frog Lachelier pro- vided the scoring, while defensemen Mike Alert Branford guards eye a Berk ' ett s(, i ;i ' uttciill ' l Anus mid feet fly as Towermen scnip jm the h.ill Strong, Joe Pinto, and Marc Mello kept the pressure off goalie Art Manning. The basketball A team got off to a fly- ing start with Capt. Charlie Cain ' s sophomore stars Burt Peck, Bob Barton, Tonv Stetanelli, Norm Judd, and Gordv Long piling up the goals. The B team, tutored bv Bill Wirth, was equally successful. Berkeley, however, still remained Branford ' s foremost adversary. The swimming team had individual win- ners in Pete Jackson, Art Timmins, and Guy Fleming, but not enough depth to win these close meets. The squash team, one of the better squads of the league, had two outstand- ing players in Warren Ransom and Rollie Smith. The handball squad lacked experi- enced members, but Clark McConnell and |im Carbone left no stone unturned in the search for another winning combination. The defending championship hockey team at- tempted to make it two years in a row. The high-scoring trio of Pete Murphy, Pete The Rocket Bronfman, and Hez Sprague com- pensated for a rather porous defense. Branford ' s hopes were high for the spring season. With live oarsmen returning from last year ' s second place crew, a top-notch crew seemed probable. Prospects for better than average baseball and softball teams looked good. Although the Branford 1951-52 sports season was not one of successes galore, Bran- ford teams did provide their share of thrills and surprises. —Julian ' argo CALHOUN COLLEGE CALHOUN COLLEGE is named to honor the statesman, John Caldwell Calhoun, 1804. For many years he represented the State of South Carolina in the House and Senate. He was Secretary of War, then Vice-President, and finally Secretary of State. John C. Schroeder, Master M [OTHER Houn welcomed her progeny back in the Fall ot 1951 with a few sur- prises. First, ol course, a new secretary. The estimable Miss Tighe, as she became known, with her snappy repartee and alarm- ing penchant for Charles Addams ' cartoons, added a new tone. But the advent of a new secretary paled to total insignificance beside the second major surprise: a full-fledged restaurant next to the tele ision room, the re- placement for last year ' s Black Hole of Calhoun. The consequences were resound- ing. The library breathed her last as the center of college social life. Eyen Phi Betes Mallender, Moncreiff, and Natunewicz left their accustomed haunts for a crack at stump- ing experts on the television quiz shows. The average day of the television room with food adjoining began auspiciously. Early in the morning it was attacked by representa- tives of Chief MoncreifF ' s Aides, who swept away with vigor the debris of the previous night, leaving till later the now secondary tasks in the college office and library. After a quiet morning, it was likely to see the base- ball brigade, led by Campus Guard Bob Griffith waxing a Yankee pennant. During World Series time, he was certain to be joined by Varsity Gridders Ed Senay, Jimmy Mar- shall, and Bill McCandless with their junior class teammates, killing time till their ren- dezvous with Herman. The evening brought a different set. Side- stepping the afternoon coke bottles and butts were the various Calhoun Players, Jim Pilliod, Dave Ralston, Al Ades, or Sandy Liebschutz, basking in the glory of a Spring production of Hamlet, but actually in search of a Shakespearean masterpiece that might entail less time and effort. And Professor Brand Blanshard ' s debaters, led by juniors Bill Guest and Dick Hannegan, utilized the monster to keep abreast of the news of the day. Ap- parently television has its constructive side: the debate team is undefeated at this time in inter-college competition. Wednesday evening was something ver} ' special: fight night. The entire clan as- sembled, eager for blood and a booster for one of Miss Hansen ' s dining hall dinners. Doc Bonnie stood in the rear, calling up his own experiences in the ring for the benefit of . the uninitiated. Fred Miles, the loud manLi- ger, simply beamed at the inflow ot cash, as his employees Booth, Mclsaac, and the others did the work. But Wednesday night touched the tradi- tional minds with nostalgia, lor there were reminders ot the old days when college life on the ground floor was everything, when the college mind scorned mass media. Pete Cruikshank munched quietly at the side, per- haps feeling that his Calhoun Council, Life is x ' aried in Calhoun manned by John Robson, Bruce Marshall, and Dave Powell, had lost the struggle for the souls of men. Stew Dixon and his enter- tainment committee had done nobly. The Fall had its great successes. A beer part ' in- troduced the sophomores to beer, a snappx trio, and the juniors and seniors. Cornell weekend called for a trio dance in the lounge; the big Fall dance came when Dartmouth in- vaded, though its success was tempered by the ugly fact that many ' Houners found ac- tivities in the rooms preferable to organized dancing. The traditional Christmas party, complete with boar ' s head, carols, and beer, found Ed Senay as Santa and Mr. Prouty as speaker. And an innovation in college enter- tainment, a dance after a hockey game, drew most of Calhoun, indeed most of New Haven. The Council had done its best. There was also some competition for the television monopoly from a few other die-hards. Entry E, led by juniors Tom Keresey and Johnnie Bush, took to group singing. More Houners took to the basement. Johnnie Morley and Jack Taylor offered guitar concerts; and Entry A cleared out for the television center, lea - ing the musicians in solitude. Even the sud- den outbreak of artistic talent in Dick Thomp- son drew no audience but his roommates. The television set and the new restaurant retained their grasp. The underclassmen could anticipate the day when even the dances would take place in the basement. Indeed, the library committee, symbol of the college, concei ed in gin and ' ermouth, and dedicated to the proposition that undergraduate-fellow relationships are more important than books, showed signs of decay. Seniors Bruce Marshall and Dave Ralston, and Fellows Bergin and Silk, tried to preser ' e tradition; but the un derclassmen, seldom seen above basement level, ignored the challenge. It was still probable that the seniors would emerge lono enough to recei e their diplomas and say goodbye to the Schroeders. who alone had succeeded in transcending the 16 screen and remaining the most important and lasting leature ol C allioun lilc. — P ()l!Lin . K)NCRE11 F Athletics O. ' LIT TO recapture the Tvng Cup, missing for two years from tfie Calhoun Dining Hall, the Senators, managed by Athletic Aide Dave Powell and Assistant Bill Duncan, had a solid Fall. Calhoun made off with the Inter-College Football Championships by beating Jonathan Edwards College in the final game ot the season. The ' Houn team added to its laurels by trouncing Harvard ' s Leverett House for the annual Yale-Harvard House Champion- ship. An undefeated, untied, and unscored upon record was due in large measure to the able coaching of Christy Emerson. Captain Johnny, Abe Claude, Jim Tuggle, and Bill Miner anchored that powerful ' Houn for- ward wall. Sandy Bartram, Bill McCandless, Kurt Marschall, with underclassmen Jim Mersereau, and Bindy Banker, produced manv a potent backfield combination that was the scourge of the opposition both on offense and defense. Many touchdowns were scored, and Johnnv The Toe Zych added the extra points. The other Fall sports were less productive. The touch-football team got away to a good start with Charlie Smith, Pinky Rome, Hank Ashforth, and Howie Solomon doing the heavy duty, but the advent of the varsity hockey season with its many pre-season prac- tices cut into the roster and the won-lost percentage. Calhoun had to settle for a spot in the center of the league. Soccer really never got rolling. Dave Pow- ell ' s squad had wonderful spirit but lacked a scoring punch, and consequently lost many close ones. Charlie Belknap, Johnny Webb, Curt Wood, Feli.x Tomei, Herb Wells, Steve Davie, and Al Hackbarth bore the brunt of manv a fruitless alternoon. It was not Cal- houn ' s vear. At the end of the fall, Calhoun was in third place behind their traditional rival Berkelev, and Jonathan Edwards. Thev came into the winter season with high hopes. A ' ith Coach Bill O ' Brien forming the A basketball team, a much improved Calhoun fi e developed. Al Hackbarth and Howie Solo- mon, with juniors Ed Woodsum, Bob Par- cells, George Lewis, and Charlie Deen, showed promise of a winning team. Player- coach George Mclsaac whipped up a sensa- tional B squad that was cleaning up the league. With football players Jim Marshall and Kurt Marschall under the boards, the Calhoun meat-trus t was mauling the oppo- sition. Bill Saunders, Jim Tuggle, and Dick LIughes rounded out a team that hoped to bring Calhoun its first basketball champion- ship in years. White shoe ballplayer from TD is pushed out of the picturi ■ ) As the winter wore on, Coach Dannv LuF- kin reported a confident Calhoun six would be readv to do battle for top berth in the hockev standings. Pinky Rome, Mac ood- housc, Bill Miner, Sandy Bartram, Bill Free- man, and Howie Booth played their last games for the Houn. A strong underclass delega- tion led by Bill Mapel and Bob Bryan, to- gether with Tom Keresey in the nets, rounded out a strong aggregation. At the practice pool, where Yale grooms its national champions, Calhoun was also doing well. Coach Stan Brainerd and Captain Bill Duncan went through the season with a team strong in depth and po wer, and confi- dent of a swimming championship. Bob Wood and Pete McLaughlin were the strong men in the hundred, turning in performances which gaye Calhoun many a one-tv ' 0 punch in that eyent. Eric Johnstone and varsity di ' er Ken Welch were strong in the sprints while breaststroker Bill Duncan and backstroker Curt Wood stayed on top in their eyents. In squash, Calhoun swept to the champion- ship vyith ease, losing few individual matches. Captain Hank Ashforth, Curt Wood, Dick Kimball, Ted Ewing, Stroke Marshall, and Bert Lummus formed a top-notch squad. Frank Muller rounded up Feli.x Tomei, Bill Saunders, and junior Bob Talley for the handball team which proved to be one of Calhoun ' s best. There were a few close matches, but victory yas never out of sight. Doc Bonnie worked hard to assemble a few boxers, yhile Dick Policli and Dick Breed grunted and groaned to pick up a few points in wrestling. The prospects for the spring season were uncertain, but many of the difficult problems worked themselves out as time passed. The baseball team fought hard with such stalwarts as Johnny Robson, Lennie Rome, Bill Healy, together with Howie Clayton, Sandy Bar- tram, and clown-prince Kurt Waldmann. Softball counted on such xeterans as Herb Wells, Charlie Belknap, Bill Morse, and Dick Thompson. Bill Morse and Sy Spengler looked strong in tennis, while Bob Parcells was the Houn ' s hope in the golf tournament. Coach Ted Fuger looked for yard to a suc- cessful season with the crew. Returning oars- men Frank Kittredge, Pat Howe, Doc Brown, Stan Brainerd, Lyle Brundage, and Stroke Marshall provided a nucleus for a strong Calhoun boat. Calhoun believes that much of their college unity comes from the athletic field. This year they showed marked improvement in the race for the Tyng Trophy. — ' ILLIAlM Duncan III The luightr Calhuiiu football teai}i rolls over all comers DAVENPORT COLLEGE DAVENPORT COLLEGE commemorates the Reverend John Davenjjort, one of the founders of New Haven Colony in 1638 and a constant advocate of the estabhsh- ment of a college in the Colonv. I) AMI 1 Ml r.l ' .l i W, MustCI M, [ANY men returned to Davenport last tall with fear and trepidation in their hearts, lor it was rumored that an uncouth hi weekly room inspection v ' ould replace the more re- laxing maid service of the previous year. It seemed to some that the college was clearly in danger of losing that informal, casual at- mosphere which had become a Davenport tra- dition, and amid cries of anguish the new economy policy was denounced. The more disorderly members waited with bated breath to be suddenly evicted, but since nothing seemed to happen, the quiescence that is Davenport resumed its former place. The game room was again occupied by lusty aspir- ants to the ping-pong crown, while the still constant though reduced threat of the draft drove some to the hallowed stacks of the col- lege library. George Mueller ' s milk bar be- came a regular institution this year, by adding milk shakes to the list of food. The T.V. set in the music room, which had just recovered from constant use occasioned by the Kefauver hearings in the Spring, began to vie with the flicks as a source of evening entertainment, and even serious discussions were caused by the sudden appearance of Buckley ' s bomb shell. The true D ' port tradition, however, was carried on this year bv the small Monday- evening parties given by Mr. and Mrs. Mer- riman, supplemented by the incredible beer parties of Lou W ' iggin and Barry Farrell, the executive Fellows of the college, at one of which a short film of Yale was shown. In addition to these events, larger groups could be seen sipping coffee, port, and brandy in the common room with the Master and Fel- lows of the college se ' eral times during the Fall. The showing of football flicks provided free entertainment to the college ' s flick majors as well as providing some serious lessons in the strategy of football. Despite this aid, it seemed to many that Coach Bill Rule and Mr. Merriman had secretly concurred on the prevailing theory in the United States of Deemphasis Of College Sports, Football in particular. That this was true could not be de- nied by anyone who observed the perfect shut- out of the Hybrids during the season, and though no statements were available to the press, it was clear that no cheating or betting scandals could be attached to the college. Free of the machinations oF the F.B.I., theretore, Davenport proceeded to enjox ' Smith Moun- tain Day, in October, w ith the greatest vigor. A great blast in the Lower Court, held bv Frank Jewett, George Bass, Charlie Benton, and Da ' e Eldredge, succeeded in attracting huge numbers ot Smith girls, who received personal invitations sporting the slogan where the mountains meet the foam. Soon the revelers overflowed into the courtyard. where photographers were standing by. The Dartmouth-weekend dance in early Novem- ber, boasting champagne punch and Eddie Wittstein, was admirably well planned bv Bob O ' Connell ' s Committee of Ten. For the hrst time in college history, the girls were permitted in the rooms until 11 P.M., which greatlv facilitated weekend planning. In earlv December, another dance was planned, but with the addition of the Apollo Glee Club and Christmas trimmings. The fears of some during the dinner were unnecessary, for the affair turned out to be a great success. On one of these co-ed weekends. Line Cornell, the noted Chairman t)f the Yale Community Charities Drive was seen playing paddle- ball in his pajamas at noontime. In the Spring, College Weekend was the best. The tradi- tional Spanish moss and rebel flags gave vyay to a shipboard dance labeled the Spring Cruise. Though none could see the resem- (•rctinlsttiiid seats as Davenport court hecotues arena of action blance to a ship, the dance was excellent. On Sunday, the college moved en masse to Ted Sizcr ' s home at Bethany, where a picnic of large proportions took place in an adjoining field. Hamburgers a-plenty, together with guitar music furnished bv Jim Porter and others not identified, contributed to making the weekend one of the best c ' er. On the more serious side of Da ' enport life, many will not forget Rosie the tailor who passed away in the Spring. His shop seemed almost a part ol the college, and it was with sorrow that the Hybrids saw the old-timer go. In the scholastic sphere, the Emerson Tuttle Memorial Scholarship was won by hit Blake, who was also the college ' s Senior Aide. The New Helen Davenport Fessenden Me- morial Scholarships v ' ere awarded to Bill Chasteen and Bill Canby at the Inaugural Dinner in September, and the Emerson Tut- tle Cup was presented to R. D. Mitchell at the Senior-Fellows ' Dinner in the Spring. The College Debate Team, including the President of the Political LInion, Ed Meese, completed its first year by competing for the new Davenport Debating Cup, which was won by Greg Taylor. The college had reason to be proud of its showing in the Yale Com- munity Charities Dri ' e, ft)r it was the top per-capita contributor, and the Hybrids par- ticipated generously in the blood drive, of which Pete duPont was chairman.

Mike Robinson and Harrv Havemeyer ' s hockev, Aldie Warner ' s lacrosse, the fad of buying cars to go on skiing expeditions, the Seven Sages, and Dean Acheson ' s letter in September are among the many memories of the year which arc not likely to be forgotten soon. — ROLLIN ARNER Study ill expressions as Crossuinu and Freeman collaborate on Martini niixino Archie Douglas f-inds studying far easier with a choice vintage Athletics E HELl! cried Coach Bill Rule, as he watched the Hybrid legions in their open- ing game with the men of the Houn.

Now these accounts may be the figments of the imaginations of the more rabid D ' port supporters, but the fact remains that something, somewhere, somehow man- aged to bring the college through the season without having scored a point. The regular season, that is, for in the post-season game with John Winthrop House, O ' Connell scored on a play up the middle which will go down in Hybrid history as second only to the conversion which followed it. Mer ' e Haskel made that, toeing the ball with the aplomb of a Brickley. We can say this of the football season— No wins, a lot of losses, and more fun than the wins and losses put together. LInfortunatelv, much the same story must be told about the touch football team, which, despite the efforts of Jack ' illett, Pete Con- nick, Harry Havemeyer, and several others, ended the season without having tasted vic- tory. There is, however, a bright spot in the fall season, and it is the record of the soccer team. Led by Line Cornell, and sparked by John McDonald, Frank Stanley, and Frank Hirsch, they wound up in third place in the league. With occasional training sessions at ipo t ah so excels in stickhall the O.H. and with the accurate toes of Cor- nell and McDonald in the forward wall, not e ' en bad luck could keep this group from finishing strong. Wins over Saybrook and Pierson were the highlights of a campaign which included five wins, three losses and a single tie game. When the winter season came upon us Aldy W ' arner took charge of the hockey team and found ample material on hand. Henry Armstrong, Leight Coleman, and Reg Foster formed the first of three good lines, while Aldy, Bill Gahagan, and Jack Letts headed the defense. The job of goalie had to be filled with an inexperienced man due to the gradu- ation of Frank Gardner, last vear ' s star net minder, but it was, and what had promised to be an excellent season did in fact become one. Mr. Matt Wilson, geologist. Fellow of the college, and handballer extraordinaire led the Hughes twins and Walter Bergler onto the courts and through a successful season. The basketball team, though tall, could not seem to find the mark earlv in the season, but, un- der Jim Ryan ' s guidance, thev soon improved, and the remainder of the season told a differ- ent stor) ' . The B basketball team, after losing a couple of heartbreakers early in the season, finished well. ' eterans Art Keeley and Lew Lawrence re- turned to take up their squash rackets for Da ' enport. The group who pla ' ed squash throughout the season were varied, but the all o ' er record of the team was a good one, due perhaps to the presence of many capable squash players in the college. And finally, it would be inappropriate to write an article about the college ' s teams without making some mention of Warner Rosenthal, our jack- of-all-athletics. Warner played football, ten- nis, and squash, and both coached and per- formed for the swimming team. His efforts, though they covered a wider field than most, were typical of many members of the college in what was a most enjovable and not unsuc- cessful year of sports in Davenport. —James Kenney Davcuport-liiie thwarts }E thrust a JONATHAN EDWARDS COLLEGE 1 JONATHAN EDWARDS COLLEGE hon- ors the famous theologian and philosopher who graduated from Yale in 1720.

E STRUGGLED back to Jonathan Edwards this fall, some tor the first time, some for the last, but all of us wondering whether our surroundings would ha ' e once more as- sumed that busy uniformed effect of a few years ago. We wondered how many of our friends had sur i ccl the summer draft quotas and the enticing promises of voluntary en- listment. We searched with more than the usual anticipations for our friends and we were agreeably relieved when familiar faces, mirroring the same questions, were found in the dining hall. About the only noticeable change in our college life was the new acting master, Stuart Brinklev, who successfully as- sumed his role of friend and leader during the fall term. Summer memories, tans, and doubts quick- ly passed as the Spiders launched a host of fall activities. Our athletic teams, which for the past two years had coveted but not quite achie -ed first place honors, got off to a brisk start. By winter they were a length behind the pace setter as the entries reached the backstretch of the Tvng Cup Handicap. Of course, nothing took precedence o er the desires of our more socially minded un- dergraduates. During football season the old Spider dosed with after shave, and, ready with cocktail hous mots, made his rounds of all the pre-game and post-game activities. His exhibition piece, a sophisticated two-step, was displayed to advantage at the Yale-Harvard Dance. That party excelled the finest Jester traditions! The dining hall, losing its grim- mer connotations, became the scene of gaiety, most if not all of the credit going to John Stewart and his energetic committee. A pleas- ing touch added this fall by the administration was the eleven o ' clock Saturday night signout for dates. The aflFability of the college was also re- vealed by the large afterdance at the cocktail parties and late evening milk and doughnut parties given by the Master and Mrs. Brinkley at their home. Messrs. Curtiss, Sullivan, Gal- lup, and Weis, our resident fellows, held continuous open house for their many ap- preciative undergraduate friends. On the rise, too, this year was the friendly intermingling of students and Fellows. The holiday season was celebrated with A ray of siiiishiiie hriojueiis the winter uioitln in ]E egg nog, turkey, and carols. The carols were provided by the J Esters, whose performance bettered that oF their founding fathers of the year before.

Hugh Friedman, our musician of universally wide fame, Pete Chase and Ollie Stew Bohai! c ii ro s the ]E it ' ; ' . Carpenter planned and managed this affair. It was beer, the Tri-tones, beer, the JEsters, beer, and Friedman ' s jazz band that made the Junior Common room go round. Of the over two hundred and fifty college men at least three hundred and fifty were there. We went to bed after our last first term exam and arose the next day for the begin- ning of second term. The master ' s house was crowded at tea the following Sunday to wel- come back Mr. and Mrs. French. We dis- cussed the plans for the spring term, all of us looking forward to the College Weekend and the annual Gilbert and Sullivan Society pres- entation. Ed Hastings, this Pooh Bah, assured us of another triumph. By then the concert series was well under way. We had already applauded the work of Rov Eaton and Clair Leonard and were looking forward to Josh White and many others. The old Spider stuck those many legs into all kinds oi university pies. We had our gentle- man athletes like Nick Bradv. Da ' e Maxwell, and Teddy Wood to mention a lew in the squash and tennis worlds. Other seniors like Mike Brown, George Graveson, and Dick Beresford skated, grappled, and pitched.

The Class of 1952 will be writing the last of eight chapters in their Yale career, each adding a postscript to the eflFect that their years in Jonathan Edwards were happv and full. — H.

Fritz Tossberg, Jerrv Ralph, Boone Gross, and Tom Champlin form the backbone of the team which should splash to many JE victories. The championship handball team has re- turned nearly intact from last year. Fred Bar- hoff, Rog Bennett, Dick Beresford, and Len Einnehmer will carry the load in this sport. The hockev team lost heavilv ' ia the gradu- ation route and coach Mike Brown will have to depend largely on sophomores this year. Howe ' er, from the spark they have shown in pre-season practice, they appear as the dark horse of the league race. With the onset of the spring season, JE athletic fortunes should rise above those of the winter. Last year, JE won championships in baseball and Softball, and hope is high that these championships will be retained. —Carl Drescher, Jr. PIERSON COLLEGE PIERSON COLLEGE bears the name of the Reverend Abraham Pierson of Killings- worth, Connecticut, first rector of the Col- legiate School (1701-7). . Gordon S. Haight, Wcaier D URING one of winter ' s coldest spells, the clock in the Pierson tower froze to a halt. For the men constantly travelling back and forth underneath this guardian of hours and minutes, time, however, never stood still. Even when nature was able to disrupt the mechanical features of everyday life, the mind and ingenuity of each Slave inhabitant was still running at high speed, providing a full and eventful life for all of the college members. When Pierson once again assembled for another academic session on that mid-Septem- ber day, there was the usual assortment of problems: fixing up rooms, recognizing old faces, trying to remember new ones, signing room contracts, and the like. This year there were e ' en a few new ones, such as who was to clean the rooms now that the maids were gone and how was one ever to get up in time for breakfast at 8:15 instead of 8:30. The Slaves soon adapted themselves to their new environment, though, and summer vacation became a thing of the past and a vision of the far future. The arrival of the football season with all its weekends soon lightened the constant drudgery of classes, and a stream of gala par- ties invaded the Pierson scene. They ranged from early season sophisticated ones with shrimp and hors-d ' oeiwres, to November brawls enlivened by jazz bands and a pajama clad extrovert. Har ' ard Weekend was high- lighted by a closed party in the Slave quar- ters. Only a select two hundred or so were invited, and a campus guard was hired to check invitations and turn away any crashers. The pressure soon became too great for him, though, and there ensued one of the best mayhems of the year. Good party, too. Pierson did not have to depend on indi- vidual effort and initiative alone for all their merrymaking. There were innumerable beer parties given from the money in the Social Fund, and many an evening was enhanced by a soiree at the Haights ' . The beer parties, besides serving abundant quantities of their namesake, have featured a long line of enter- prising entertainers from Walt Sm ith and his guitar to the Salapatica Seven Minus Four, a combination of nightingales led by Nimbo Enzer, who are not yet quite ready to super- Secrets are whispered in the Pierson court ( cen- ter) as drugstore cowhors C ' op) and famous ) (ileuien QjottoiiO hi to the Pierson scene. scde the Whiffs as Yale ' s number one sing- ino group. There was also the memorable occasion when Nick Katoglis auctioned off several old bikes much to the financial benefit of the college and to the surprise of the pur- chasers. Funny what a guy will bid once he has downed a few. The fall dance was a sen- sational success. Santa Babbidge was missed at this year ' s Christmas party, but the wine so thoughtfully provided by the Fellows and Mr. Maight, and a little hearty singing, had every- one in a merry mood. The scholastic side of life al so received its due attention. Pierson had its annual Rhodes Scholar, this time Mike Bennett, and a re- spectable number of Slave scholars became members of Phi Bete. There were the French and German tables in the dining room for those who felt so inclined. Most of us stuck to the English ones. And there were always se ' eral members who were willing to ponder and argue any intellectual question, mostly argue. The corner of the Common Room was the scene of a constant bridge game for those who wished to sharpen their mind in that lashion. Most Pierson men were content, how- ever, to keep up their marks and remain scho- lastically unobtrusive. The most impressive event of the year was the dinner given for the unveiling of Arnold W ' olfers ' s portrait which was gi ' en to the college by the Fellows and presented by CJeorge Van Santvoord, headmaster of Hotch- kiss. The picture now hangs in the Pierson Dining Hall. That same ex ' cning President Ciriswold held an iniormal discussion with many of the college members in which he tried to explain some of the uni ' ersitv ' s prob- lems to his listeners. Another interesting fea- ture ol the ear ' s acti ' ities was a concert gi ' en In ' the well known composer Norman Dello joio. The program, arranged by Mr. Boat- wright, was both entertaining and worthwhile. Pierson was subjected to its share of fads tluring the course of the year. In early fall it was bull whips. The young aspirants for mule A k.s ci liurjii iiLlilicsses vielloxv Slaves driving were easily recognizable by the long scars along their arms and legs where well aimed snaps went astray. Next in line came a sudden urge on the part of many to repaint their walls. Gray and yellow became un- fashionable and the shocr elements soon had their rooms encased in a dark green or a light blue. Some of the baser elements re- sorted to fire engine red, but as a whole, this burst of individualism was discouraged. Gold- fish and plant life came in for their share of attention, while certain air enthusiasts have been winging model planes back and forth across the courtyard. One member even took a liking to grading the daily menus over at the dining hall. Unfortunately, he did not take a liking to the food and gave up when his subject failed to improve its grades. Low marks or not, the food has been sustaining. There have been many improvements in the college itself during the last year. New cur- tains now grace the dining hall, and a new printing press grinds nightly in the basement. The piano was mercifully retuned, thanks to Mr. Haight. The dark room is now in op- eration, and a new phonograph has been in- stalled in the Music Room. The newest and best of all the additions was the stay of Father Murray during the year, as a visiting pro- fessor. He has made a great many friends in his short stay and has done many things for the college. He will be missed ne.xt year. All told, it has been a good and an event- ful ear and we, the Piersonmen, will hate to see it go. —A.

Coach Homer Short Pants Babbidge found a wealth of returning material with an entire backfield left over from last year, and a swarm of hustling sophomores. The fates, however, were unkind, and it was not until the fourth game that Pierson finally broke into the scoring column, and even then on the short end of a 21-6 score inflicted by the Monsters of JE. Sandwiched in there, prov- ing the mettle of the team, was a scoreless duel in which a heavily favored Branford team was consistently outplayed. The season came to glorious finish as the boys overcame Davenport, the traditional rivals, by a 10-0 score, with Jim Poinde.xter providing the dressing with a ten-yard field goal. The post season affair with Lowell House proved to be a squeaker with Pierson on top by 7-6. Co- Captain Bill Howland, runner and passer par-excellence, threw a long thirtv-yarder to Bob Barbee, who went over without being touched, the whole play covering sixty yards. Jim Poindexter provided the margin by pass- ing to Pete Van Doren for the extra point. Credit for fine football must be given to Co- Captain Plato Skouras, Nimbo Enzer, Danny Swisher, Lou Krieger, and Ered North. Imitating last year ' s season, the touch team started slow and ended with a strong stretch drive, by copping five out of the last six games. Captain Art Stonehill, the only re- turning letterman, lound a fine passing- receiving combination in Mike Kraynak and Frank Stolzenberg, with lanky Bob McNeal pulling his share of catches out of the air. A scrappy second team of John Stokdyk, next year ' s Captain, Chris Carter, Dick Kimm, and Fred W ' uest, helped push the team into a third place finish. The soccermen came up with one ot the tightest seasons in years. Compiling a 5-1-3 record, the boosters ' three losses were all one goal decisions. Against an almost airtight de- fense, led by Bob Dean, Fred Bannerot, and Bob Cunningham, the opposition could score an average of only 0.66 goals per game, with goalie Dean turning in three shutouts. All the games were ven, ' close, and the only tie, against Trumbull, ' as pulled out of the fire by a last moment penalty kick by John Cun- ningham. In addition to these stalwarts, Co- Captains McMillan and Kristiansen were ably aided by a competent team of hooters in- cluding Ernie Mendoza, Harrv ' an Dine, Lee O ' Nan, and Bob Rice. In basketball, Pierson ' s bright hope tor the winter season, the Slaves began slowly by dropping two out of their first three games; but led by Captain Mike Kravnak, Frank Stolzen- berg, Bob McNeal, and Dick Glowacki, they finished the season with a fine record. B basketball, led bv John Stokdvk, credit- ably followed suit. In squash, the Slaves looked strong with Thrus Thaver and Peter Parker leading the way, while on the hand- ball courts, Charley Snorf and Harry Bald- win paced the team struggling through a tough schedule. The natators were again strong contenders for the top honors. Co- captains John Eysenbach and John Steele v ' ere backed by competitors such as Nimbo Enzer, Jim Prendergast, and Bill Albrccht. Perennially strong in the spring, Pierson again showed promise ol a standout season. Most of last year ' s league champion crew were back in the shell. Pulling for a repeat performance were strokes Plato Skouras, Fred W ' uest, Frank Smith, and big Bob Kellogg. —Fred Wuest J.

Maybe the stuff we drink in Saybrook had something to do with the way the Brookmen pulled through it all in high spirits. Certainlv anyone who could survive the punches Larry Watkin brewed for those parties in the White entry was not to be subdued by the comparatively minor evils of bureaucracy that lurked out- side the Brook. As the football season got under way the parties in Saybrook, considerably improved by the new eleven o ' clock date curfew, showed us that Saybrook could be more than a place to sleep and eat. The same Gothic Dining Hall that each morning saw us grimly face our clay eggs and cardboard toast became marvelously transfigured on Dart- mouth and Cornell weekends into the scene of the immensely popular dances sponsored by the College Council, under the direction of GrilF Garland. Almost every night after dinner the piano playing of George Preston and Steve Booher added a cheerful, if not ludicrous, atmos- phere to the Common Room. When movies like Quo Vadis discouraged even the most faithful flick followers, there was always the television set in the Reception Room, the much-used pool table, or a new cartoon book in the library. College functions like the Christmas Party, with egg-nog and carol-singing, the annual Quartet Concert in Februars ' , and the grand finale of Founders ' Day, Say- brook ' s renowned spring weekend, are the big events we remember in thinking back o ' er those things which made the year a suc- cessful one. But it was also the little touches, such as Billy and Morgan playing in the Marshall BartJioIouiew leads Sayhrook caroUers at Christums Baiuiiiel courtyard, a friendly word from Tom Hines at the guard ' s office, the sound of Frank Coxe ' s guitar or Marc Twinney ' s banjo, the good food and conversation at the snack bar, Rena ' s cheerful greeting from behind her desk in the Master ' s Office— these little things and many more like them were con- tributed and shared by each of us as part oi what went into making Savbrook a place where we could teel at home. Once again Mr. and Mrs. Henning de- serve our thanks for all the ' did to make the year a success. Behind so much of the com- fortable order we took for granted was the guiding hand of Mr. Henning, who was also available for advice on our personal prob- lems. Mrs. Henning ' s hospitality at the many parties in the Master ' s House gave us all the feeling that, as members of Savbrook, we formed a unified community. The Fellows of Savbrook proved them- seh ' es to be more than willino to sit tlow n and talk things o er. With men like Mr. Robley, Mr. Martz, and Mr. Logan we passed many an entertaining and informative lunch hour, and in the future we will par- ticularly miss the Bartholemews, whom we had almost come to consider an indispen- sable part of Savbrook. The presence of Rev- erend Calhoun in our midst will continue to ser ' e as a reminder of the stature man can achie ' e by li ' ing his ideals. In dc ' cloping a personality of its own, Savbrook fortunately was not burdened bv an excess of the vestigial remains of the pre-war white-shoe, letter-sweater-inside-out crowd which still lingers on in certain other colleges. With a minimum of the fanfare and fol-de-rol that seemed so necessary to our predecessors, a large proportion of our silent generation has been striving quite earnestly to find something worth saying without much concern for the hollow prophesies of a jour- nalistic school which seems to hear onl ' its hi ti mate couvfrsntidii I lie Fellows and their wives fill a gap in Sayhrook life own voice. Daily themes and Robert Penn V ' ai i en ' s course gave rise to many a dinner- table discussion or weary night of scribbling. Scholar oF the House Ronald Paulson showed the most promise wdth the least amount ot the non-essential noise apparently still expected ot a young wnriter, while John Rinehart gave us the assurance that at least, if all else fails, there mav vet be another Hemingway. On the lighter side, Gordon Gould led the Saybrook Players through their wonderfully entertaining spring production, and even the Savhrook Seal, published by Ted Netdeton and his able staff, managed occasionally to come up with a much improved brand of humor while dispensing news of college e ents. Jack Copland attempted to lift the struggling avant garde above the level of the masses (by giving a cocktail partv on the eighth floor of the Killingworth Court Tower), Clovis Heimsath carried the Bicker- ing torch of Frank Lloyd Wright amidst the gloomy creations of James Gamble Rogers, Jack ( now hear this ) McClatchey doled out the wisdom of Joyce to the unenlightened, while Father Callahan, The Savbrook Saint, soothed our metaphysical an.xiety. Merely mentioning a few names in passing, however, cannot begin to convey the way in which each of us contributed his share to making Saybrook a good place to live in. We will always be especially grateful to people like Mig Farina for running the library so effi- ciently, to Bill Lowry for making the athletic program a vital part of our college life, to Jack Callender for his artistic posters and signs, and to all the others who, though they may go unmentioned here, deserve credit for what thev did toward making the past year in Sav- brook an e.xperience which the graduating Seniors will long remember and which ought to give their successors a substantial tradition to build upon in the future. —Thomas Greening C Christmas dinner disappearing before hungry Brookswen (left ' ) who sovietiines follow su-pfer with a short nap ( ' ' igji t ' ) Athletics I J. rin end of the tall Found Saybrook in tourth place in the Tyng Cup competition, mostly by virtue of her strong football team. By stressing conditioning and using the power- ful single wing formation, Coach Art Kramer and Captain Felix Ziffer developed a potent team that barely missed winning the South League championship. The out-of-league opener was dropped by a slim 6-0 margin and the Jonathan Edwards contest ended in a tie score, but from that point onward, the Gold was undefeated and unscored upon. In the following game, with Davenport, Linemen Bill Simon, Pete Lei- sure, and Warren White were outstanding in the bottling of the Hybrid attack, while Bob Martineau ' s spectacular return of a punt guar- anteed the victory. In the Pierson thriller, the last minute of a scoreless fray had started to click away when Charlie Donelan intercepted a Slave desperation pass and bolted untouched Granshow and Earnhardt cooperate down the sidelines for the winning tally. Inspired bv a cheering crowd of onlookers, the Seals next defeated a tough Branford eleven. Vital elements in a rock-like line were Fred Graham, Mac Beatty, Dick Cook, and Al Gunn. Spectacular aerials by Bill Berkeley to receivers Bob Ward, Ed Schmults, Ed Kellermann, and Gene Zaborowski kept the offense continually rolling, as did the pile driver-like running of Jack deWysocki. The actual scoring was done bv lullback Fred Gates, who bucked over twice irom inside the five yard line. After this game championship hopes ran high, but Jonathan Edwards dashed them by remaining unbeaten. The season was cli- maxed with the 32-0 drubbing of a hapless group from Adams House, the traditional foe from Harvard. The touch sextet, boasting a fast oflense and an alert defense, placed fourth in their competition. Bob Bergstrom, fleet-footed end, finished as the league ' s second highest scorer by tallying sixteen touchdowns, most of which were made on passes from Russ Web- ster and Larry Watkin. Clever defensive work bv Barry Nixon, Tom McElrath, and John Dodds helped keep the opposition scores low.

Due to a strong turnout, the outlook tor winter sports is very favorable. In the A basketball team, scoring honors seem destined to go to jump-shot artist Bill Berkeley or cen- ter Ed Schmults, a tap-in specialist. The ex- cellent blocking and rebounding of Jeff Mills, Ed Shcra, and Bruce Geller add the needed defense for a well balanced quintet. With many capable players on his B basketball squad, playing coach Bird Eagle- ton is looking forward to a good season. Lanky Bob Ganshow and Elarry Kinsley give that much needed height under the boards, while Forwards Bill Lowry, Rich Franke, and Char- lie Eloogland have already shown their ability to score. To date, the hockey team has had only two practices, so no accurate prediction can be made about its final standing. Where the gold shirted players wind up Aill depend upon how successful are the efforts of re- turning veterans John Bankson, Red Talbot, Butch Safford, and Jim Stronge in molding the new material into a fighting unit. What is really encouraging about the pros- pects for gaining in the Tyng Cup race dur- ing the winter is the fact that this year many of the Brookmen have shown a keen interest in sports that all too often are poorly sup- ported. Pugilists Dick Caruso and Don Jaekle head a strong, well muscled squad. Matmen Pim Epler and Lcn Doolan promise to be serious contenders for the championship of their respective weight classes. T he racquet- men, headed by strategist Bob McLane and clutch player Clovis Heimsath, are as yet undefeated. Not quite as impressive a record has been made by the handballers, though Paul Gignilliat and Len Joy show signs of becoming top flight performers. Swimmers Ian Macintosh and Dave Seeley are constant winners and if Tom Strait and Sears Ludeke develop as expected, the natators will compile a good record. —William Lowry SILLIMAN COLLEGE SILLIMAN COLLEGE carries the name of Benjamin Silliman, B.A. 1796, Professor of Chemistry and Geology from 1802 to 1853. To form this college in 1940 the Vanderhilt-Scientific Halls and Bvers Hall were remodeled and additions built. ' HI! Theodore AI. Greene, Mastci L OWARD the middle of September, boxes, suitcases, and bicycles began to pile up in the massive gothic archway just off the corner oF College and Grove, and the peace- ful, spacious quadrangle within awoke for another year to the trampling of feet and a shouted chorus of greetings. The draft crisis had become an old story, and 1951-52 looked like a banner year for Silliman. Salamanders welcomed the news that Pul- itzer Prize-winning author Robert Penn War- ren had taken a place among its august group of Fellows. Mortimer S. Baratz, another new Fellow, also arrived on the scene and in a short time became the highly valued advisor to Silliman Debaters Thomson, Shore, Ret- tie, Duberman, and Proll, of whom great things were expected. Everyone trod lightly the first few weeks regarding the presence of the Air Force Unit, but as time went on mutual acceptance grew smoothly and they became a part of the passing Silliman scene. The Salamander appeared for this first; time on September 21, proclaiming itself The Oldest College Twice-a-Week with All the news that ' ll fit and a circulation of 749,263.5. It continued throughout the year more or less on its self imposed schedule, and great credit is due to its staff. Dick Slade was in command until midway through the fall when he retired in fa ' or of new Editors Proll, West, Rabinowitz, and D ' Adamo. Mr. Greene welcomed a promising group of new residents with beer and good advice at an enjoyable meeting in the common room. Dr. Turner started off the Fellows ' Workshop dis- cussions, and was followed a few weeks later by Professor Wimsatt. The annual football season uproar lasted pretty well through each week, leaving Wed- nesday relatively quiet, and the community vacuum cleaner in the Guard ' s office saw yeo- man service on Fridays. There were several occurrences on note . . . Buddy Thompson, ex-Silliman ' 53, showed up in an Annapolis uniform for a damp reception in 1905 . . .

The Silliman Couneil was eleeted along in Oetoher, and began an administration ol a somewhat stormy nature. Heading the coun- cil were President Dick Slade, Vice-president John Richardson, Secretary Bob Tullis, and Treasurer Bob Wilke. The representatives included Steve Tsai, Chris Weeks, John Goldsmith, Spence Connerat, Myron Bell, Al Pois, Jerry Inskeep, Wallv Hopkins, Mickey Poole, Gus Wilson, Jerry Adelson, Bob Hodgkins, Dick Norton, and Ed Blair. That old chestnut, the back gate, had it s status changed three times, but by far the most important accomplishment was the set- ting up of a Student Judiciary Committee. After an uproar with two petitions, a referen- dum took the administration of the committee away from the Council and made it a separate body. Frank Jedlicka was the dominant force behind most of the procedure. A lot of credit is due the Couneil for its interest and efforts on behalf of independent student govern- ment, a bone of contention around all the colleges and a movement in which Silliman had consistently led the way. One of their finest achievements this year was a Christ- mas party gi en in the Dining Hall for New Haven Youngsters. Social Committee- men Fleischer and Sherman whipped up some erv enjoyable record dances on Navy, Cornell, and Dartmouth weekends and a really swish semi-formal soiree after the Har- vard fracas with the music of Roy Ward. Another highlight of the fall season was the Benjamin Silliman Dinner, with Profes- sor Northrup as the featured speaker, along with Professors Bateman and Sinnot. Shortly after this affair, a panel was held of The Functions of a LIni ersity. Speaking before a packed common room were Dean Sewall, and Professors Greene, Wimsatt, and Miller. More culture was garnered Irnm Mr. Patrick Morgan ' s painting exhibit ... at least one of his pictures drew a crowd. Both Pois and his Blood Drive and Rienhoff and his charities campaign met with great success. Silliman, long knoun as a haven for cam- pus nonentities, changed its spots rapidly this year, gaining a stranglehold on extra-curricu- lar activities. Residing in its hallowed halls were a goodly number of the Yale News offi- cers including Chairman Thomson, Manag- ing Editor Koch, and Business Manager Don- aldson. WYBC Chairman Charlie Heard was seen dining quietly; Record Chairman Carris Why, Mother, how sweet of you to call Sillhiuiu party girl reiuoviiig her bridge. Mother disapprov] ' and Feature Editor Braun were chosen from amongst us, and rounding out the picture was Dwight Hall Chairman Bob Fortna. Fence Club Presidents Koch and Foxwell helped publicize our lair name. Famous ath- letes were Fewer, but Silliman could claim a small delegation of footballers, swimmers, and a varsity captain in the form of Cross-Coun- tryman George Dole. It appeared that the destinies of Yale, hitherto decided at the lunch tables of Calhoun and Davenport, ema- nated instead from Silliman milk bar discus- sions. In February, Pete Westermann organ- ized a fabulous Bach Cantata with fifty voices and a fourteen piece orchestra that was per- formed in Silliman before a packed house. The lighter side offered many chuckles . . . Wilton won the Leo Sachs Good Guy Award lor 1951 . . . the subscription lo Esquire ran out at the library much to the disappointment ot certain people . . . Boke Doyle ' s duck boat was seen around in incon- gruous places . . . great party after the Dart- mouth game in 1882 . . . entry G had a re- currence of radiator trouble . . .

Mr. and Mrs. Greene continued to offer hospitality for dates . . . nightly trips to the milk bar . . . and pretty soon exams were upon us again. It had been a great year, and the Spring weekend left many pleasant memories. Chief Aide Bill Strong and his able Graham Fin- ney, Dave Woodworth, and Roy Grey re- ceived the gratitude of the college for their fine job in a diverse collection of duties. Mr. Greene, with his famous hospitality and wise words, had done a lot toward making Silli- man a truly democratic place, and Silliman itself moved into the bracket of a sought after Oiiiet Slipper in lower earner of Silliunni Dining llall .eclieruu college. The seniors departed with a touch of nostalgia . . . the buildings and the quad be- came empty and silent once more for another summer. —Allan A. A. Flynn Tiirtan shorts are in st Athletics jf LTHOLlGH it mav not be indicated in the actual points compiled by Salamander aggregations in Tyng Trophy competition thus tar this year, athletics among the deni- zens oF this sprawling intellectual hot-bed are on the up-grade. Perhaps, it is because, as our Master often says, Things have to hit rock bottom before they can get better. If this be the case, the dismal showings of recent years would appear to offer ample evi- dence that things are about to improve. Per- haps it is because the class of 1952 is about to hang up the few uniforms it wore during its years in Silliman, and, thus, to make room for an incoming class that could not conceiv- abl ' contribute less, as a Linil, to Mr. Neale ' s Grade A Inter-College Program. Or, perhaps, it is because of the experience gained on the greensward of our spacious quad. At any rate, there was a lot of hustle and spirit among the stalwarts who carried the balls, rounded the bases, and swung the oars for the Red and (ireen in 1951-2. Like the St. Louis Browns, Silliman is busily rebuilding. Ably coached by John Sanders, the foot- ball forces, captained by Dick Boyle, ace sup- porter of Silliman athletics, had little in com- mon with the disinterested and disorganized group whose cleats had trod the Berkshire Fields the year before. Although the team I ailed to break a long losing streak in com- piling a record of four losses and a tie, each game was close and hard-fought. The passing of Bill Hoop, the plunging of John Elliot, and the versatility of the Brown brothers, Steve and Garry, featured the Sanders of the single-wing, while Captain Boyle, Johnnv Goldsmith, Don Lamm, and manv others sparked a spirited defense that held mighty Calhoun and Berkelev to a meagre three touchdowns. In the gentlemen ' s game of touch, Capt. Scott Pierce, Johnny Hays, Dave Williams, Al Ockene, Ed Bamford, and Bill McDermott were the se.xtet most responsible for the rec- ord of three wins and six defeats. Capt. Bill Strong ' s soccer team, despite the noble ef- forts of their captain, Frank Schwelb, Dick Curtiss, and a large group of spirited, but in- experienced participants, was the big disap- pointment of the fall term, compiling a non- winning record, brightened onlv bv two ties. ' ith the start of the ' inter Season, the prediction made in the opening paragraph began to be evidenced as this article was written. After a shakv start, Capt. Phil Cole ' s sophomore-sparked hoopsters, finding baskets to match their hustle, embarked on what should now be recorded as a more than cred- itable season. Milt Fishman, Harry Benning- hoff, Gus W ' ilson, and Scott Pierce were among the stars in Coach Warren MacKen- zie ' s quintet. An identical pattern was shown bv hustling Frank Maloney ' s large and ca- pable 15 St|lKul. The swimming team, too, led bv Capt. Chris Weeks, Ed Bamford, Dee Rettie, Ron- nie Ebel, and John Strong, among others, despite an inauspicious start, gave promise of developing into a well-balanced and meet- winning outfit. It was in handball, however, that the Red and Green could take their great- est pride. The skillful efforts of Joe Fortunato, Ed Toohey, Jim Kennedy, and three Daves, Macklin, Novkov, and Hillis, were well along toward completely reversing last year ' s vic- toryless season. On the ice at the Arena, it was a small band of veteran stickmcn upon which Silli- man ' s none-too-bright hopes for hockey suc- cess rested. With the loss of most of last year ' s squad, Sam Barnes, Bill Donaldson, Sandy E ing, and Bob Dewey had to search among a group of untested candidates for the assist- ance needed to form a winning club. The squash team, paced by Pierce, Schwab, Apfel, Duberman, Leighton, and Davidson, held modest ambitions in the face of blistering competition. Rounding out the winter activities, a game and able corps of matmen and boxers trained and battled for the Red and Green. Bull Durham, Russ Wehner, and Herb Dietz, among the former, and Frank D ' Andrea, Pete Vosburgh, and Fred Dolloff, among the latter, were to be counted upon to bring home their share of trophy points. Like the crocus, however, Silliman alwavs manages to do its best come spring. The re- sults of 1952 should offer no exception. With WViid ' ig for the rebound Sam Barnes, Bill Marsh, Phil Clark, and Willv Cochran all returning from last year ' s championship golf team, with all but two men back from a successful 1951 crew, and with a powerful group of tennis performers, paced by Frank Maloney and Andy Labrot, these sports, with the added support of new- comers, are destined to maintain, if not to improve upon, the results of 1951. The same may be said for the Salamander softball and baseball forces. Should what are now only predictions come true, Silliman will find her- self looking more like the Cleveland, than the St. Louis, Browns come 1953. —Graham Finney Salaiuauder surrounded on all side TIMOTHY DWIGHT COLLEGE TIMOTHY DWIGHT COLLEGE is named to honor two presidents of Yale— Timothy Dwight, B.A. 1769, eighth president (1795- 1S17), and his grandson Timothy Dwight, B.A. 1849, tAvelfth president (1886-99). Charles H. Sawyer, Master JT ROM the sultry September day when the Timothy Dwight gates swung open to admit the browned, well-travelled hordes of white- shoed men, to the equally sultry June day when they all leave again, dressed the same but much paler, thinner, and— presumably- smarter, the dominant mood of the TD man of 1951-52 was a much more serious and de- termined one than in times previous. He was not conscious that he had pulled a deal in still being a civilian, nor was he throwing roses at General Hershey. He knew that he was deferred not out of the kindness of any- body ' s heart, but because of the responsibility that was every student ' s. And by and large, the Prexie of this year carried his new found (or newly realized) responsibility quite grace- fully. Men seemed actually to study harder, less horseplay was evident, and many things pointed to a greater interest in world and na- tional affairs. But though a mood may have changed, lots o f things around TD did not and would not. For instance, nothing would ever change the migration to the Bowl on autumn Saturdays, to the ski slopes on winter weekends, or to the Poll chain almost any time. Nothing would ever change Sunday suppers, or the bridge fanatics, the Friday evening clubs, or the tele- vision hounds. Mrs. Denison still capably held down the office, and Johnny the front gate. Mr. and Mrs. Sawyer still hosted gra- ciously for goodly crowds at the Master ' s Teas and entry parties, and touch football players like Aberg, Kniering, Scope, and Lanphier still ran ragged on the courtyard every day of the fall. Among the more invulnerable activities of the year were the purely social, both formal and informal. Parties could be found almost anywhere during football season and on Prom and College weekends. Indefatigable party throwers like Hoffman and Hitz had a great season. On the organized side, Dick Potter and his Social Activities Committee master- fully arranged and pulled off a glittering and successful social season. It all started quite innocently with the annual blast for the new sophomores, followed by the Cornell dinner- dance with the ' hiffs singing and John Heath mi.xing. With the football season in full swing men lived on a Saturday to Satur- Hffl mB M Wiini ii HHWHiBy After heavy snoir, the Service Bureau moves in day basis, but For many the weekend began Thursday nights. A flushogram became more dread than a draft notice, and the football games were replayed by the experts ' ell into the week. Dartmouth weekend found the Pre.xies imbibing gallons of milk punch and coming back for more. After Harvard game, excited TD ' ers un- tensed in a full evening dance, with the Spizz- winks providing the harmonizing. With the coming of Christmas came a new and wel- come idea in TD. In order to promote closer relations between the Fellows and the mem- bers, a highly successful plan was worked out and executed, largely through the efforts of Warren Musser, whereby each senior room entertained se ' eral Fellows and their wi es lor pre-dinncr cocktails and lollowcd this with the traditional Christmas dinner and partv. At this Yuletime party, the TD Dramat, un- der the direction of John MacGregor, brought its first production of the year: Green Pas- tures. Aspiring thespians Bill Taylor, Dick Cravens and Marry Tutton contributed their talents toward this excellent production, which helped make it a memorable evening for all. Alter ' acation and exams had been left behind, social events started coming thick and last again. The traditional Junior Prom din- ner-dance, with the Yale Collegians supplying the rhythms, added another high point to the intrinsically enchanting weekend, and the further approach of spring found I D men observing spring rites in the woods, lawns, and canoes of Paradise Park on College week- end. Springtime brought with it the sun- bathers, the Softball players, weekends spent around the rolling countryside of Northamp- ton and Poughkeepsie, and the baseball fans like Hirsch, Van Osdol, and Chasanoff clus- tered artiund the television set, hiearv-exed but happy. Along the more serious lines. Chuck Lich- cnstein and Perry Caldwell guided the TD Forum through another rewarding series of discussion. Among the faculty members that spoke to the Forum were David Rowe, Bob Dahl, James Fessler, and Norman Pearson. In addition to this, the Chubb Fund provided TD with an outstanding group of men in public life who came to TD for a week, to meet anti talk with members. Outstanding among these this year was Arthur Koestler, noted author. Others included Ernest K. Lindley of Newsweek. Richardson Dilworth, Bare picture snapped in TD students ' room and John Alsop, all ot whom had many in- teresting things to sav to attenti e Prexies. A predominantly sophomore debate team including Dick Crayens, Phil Swanson, Pat McGrady, Ken Buckley, and senior and Chairman Ben Walter gave a good account ot itself in inter-college competition. Along more aesthetic lines, Ed Glennv and Gene Gonzalez were the driving forces in the TD Art Group, which rendez-votised weekly for exotic and avant-garde doings. The gentle- men of the Fourth Estate in TD were John Lasser and Bruce Wilner. Aided by reporters Chase, Potter, and Cooper, they put out a erv successful Town Crier, carrying on the great tradition of a free and fair press. Chief Aide Bill Edwards and his entire staff continued to be of good ser ice to the College; and the iMott Woolley Council, un- der Chairman Kutch and composed of Moss- man, Tutton, Baskin, Van Heuven, and Ely continued its job of liaison between Mr. Saw- yer and the members, along with pondering wisely over the administration of the Mott W ' oolley Memorial Fund. Now in his lourth car as Master of TD, Mr. Sawyer continued to guide and adminis- ter college affairs with a firm and patient hand. Perceiving the need for a coat-and-tie rule for evening meals, he was able to instru- ment this definite impro ' ement in a smooth manner, resulting in a minimum of howls from the civil righteous and applause from the ast majority. Again this year, Mr. and Mrs. Sawyer opened the Master ' s House to the members ' dates on big weekends. Among the outstanding improvements made in TD this year were the remodelling and refurnishing of Magnate Hank Haugh- ton ' s milk bar under the direction of Chief Architect Glenny, and the continued growth of the TD Librarv (already the largest col- lege library) by the purchase of dozens of new books and records. With the score added up, it ' s easy to see that TD came through another year in fine form and with colors flying. To Mr. and Mrs. Sawyer, the inimitable Mrs. Clay, Mrs. Deni- son and many others go the thanks of all the members for all their efforts that helped make TD an enjoyable and warm place this year. —Paul Haerle For God, for the Confederacy, and for ' nt 6g Athletics Players, luarrel as TD shot sneaks into tlie lioiij ' w, ITH a repeat oF last tail ' s first place po- sition oF the Tyng ladder, the Timothy Dwight athletes girded themselves For a stren- uous season oF Football, touch and soccer. High hopes were somewhat dimmed, how- ever, when the final tabulations showed that TD held a berth in the second di ' ision. The least that could be said was that there was work to be done bv the winter and spring muscle-men to pull the Prexies up to a more respected perch. With spirit and drive as the main objectives, there was consolation in knowing TD had the largest turn-out oF all the colleges Fcir (all sports. The Football season began on a bright note as the Pre.xie gridders, under the co-coaching ol Bruce ixiin and P ill Moore, won 6-0 From Saybrook in a spirited inter-league opener. The game ' s end Found TD on the Saybrook five yard line pushing For another score. But this first game also marked the beginning oF a series oF accidents which were to hamper the team For the remainder oF the season, as the star oF the game, Ron Lamarre, leFt the game with an injured leg. Hard play by backs Ste e Mover, Pete ShaFer, Tom Williams, Bob Fiske, and Tom Norton, center Bill Baskin, linemen King ' Curtis, Dick Scope, Henry Into, Doug Put- nam, and Larry Riggs, and Dave X ' crMeulcn at entl coultl not push TD higher than a tie For .-ird place in the league. But, as the season started on a bright note, so it ended on one as a late-season power-laden iu ' tl Machine . Rooters pack the arena for exciting hockey game with Davenport crushed a hapless Dudley Hall eleven from Har ' ard, 33-0. Close games and bad breaks made up a heart-breaking season tor touch lootballers John Mitchell, Barrs ' Bryan, Rog Kniering, Jack Donley, Dave Svvanson, and Bill Ziering. The passing of last fall ' s touch aggregation was sorely missed as the championship slipped from their grasp. Coach Harry Lindh, with the assistance of Mac Bundy, ' Al Cox, Phil Lee, Guy Cala- bresi, Ed Jordan and Harry Davidson, led his soccer team through a respectable season, compiling a 4-3-2 record. With Don Aberg taking the helm, and vet- eran basketballers Phil Didriksen, Bruce Sands, Mike ChasanofF, and Bo Mossman as a nucleus, the A basketball squad com- pleted a hustling and successful season. After a shaky start Steve Mover and cohorts rallied the B ' squad and compiled a creditable rec- ord for the season. The squash team, follow- ing their creed, An Active Ladder Leads to a Winning Team, showed real strength in the winter matches. A strong start by the handball team was seriously hampered by the mid-year gradua- tion of Charlie Haase, a team veteran and out- standing performer on the courts. Hockey captured the interest of a large number of Prexie skaters, and, If, as Coach Fiske com- mented, proximity to the rink means any- thing . . . The mermen looked forward to a fruitful winter, bringing home several early season victories; hopes were high for retaining the championship won last year, as regulars Ham Griffin, Bruce Spoon, Dick Vasey, Gif Hitz, Dean McCumber, Lee Baker and Harry Davidson returned to the line-up. With the spring crew, baseball, and softball teams still under wraps, experienced prognos- ticators would only smile a knowing smile as they pointed to returning spring athletes. It is of interest to note that Timothy Dwight last year inaugurated a charm system of athletic awards, and in that first season of operation over one-hundred charms were given out to college members who had made valuable contributions of their time and efforts to the athletic teams. —Richard Vasey TRUMBULL COLLEGE TRUMBULL COLLEGE was erected from funds given by the trustees of the estate of Jolin W. SterHng, B.A. L864. Its name honors Jonathan Trumbull, LL.D. 1779, governor of Connecticut during the War of the Revolution. OOCIALLY, 1951-52 in Trumbull was the same as any other year, but in many other ways the 18th year of the college was unique. Trumbullians had as many dates, as many parties, the same type oF outings and blasts as in past years, but there were new innova- tions as the council took more power, the snack bar was resuscitated, a felonious mys- ters ' bafHed the authorities, and sophomore orientation was speeded. John Clark and the council put together a big push during the fall to bring setups and liquor into the college dances. Dr. Nicho- las, 100 per cent behind the new proposal, took it to the Council of College Masters, but there it lav in state several weeks. It was finally interred after the UAC had frowned on it, and the CCM voted it away. Trum- bull mourned. Don iMell and Fred Smith set about the rejuvenation of the snack bar. In addition to a pre-season face listing, they installed a tele- vision monster, which, although it lacked sound for a while and necessitated AC power piped in from the nether regions, attracted many for fight nights. The pair also improved their fare, but raised prices. The case of the missing solid silver sugar bowl thwarted every attempt of Inspector Taft to recover it. She finally resorted lo threatening notes on the bulletin board, and upon their failure, the ultimate removal of the Trumbull bowls from the dinin g room tables and any further temptation. Other col- leges took careful count of their silverware whenever visited by Trumbull men. Rumor has it that Sweet Briar is enjoying the new addition to its collection. In an attempt to better integrate the incom- ing sophomores into the college this fall, Dr. Nicholas appointed a junior counsellor-wel- comer to each room. He furthered the project bv gi ' ing a large welcome party in the dining room. The TriiuihiiUiau staflF of Denny O ' Brien and his cohorts decided at the beginning of the year that the Banner needed a bit of competition. So that, instead of the usual TriimhuUian and TruiuhuU Times appearing from time to time under the door (after a hoard of salesmen had come to ask for sub- scriptions), the staff put out a year ' s end re- 119 pHHBHBSSBSEHSffl view book summarizing all the Bull activities and athletics. Brother Jonathan ' s 241st birthday celebra- tion was attended this year by quite an array with Dr. Stanhope Bavne-Jones, the first Master, Dean William C. DeVane, Edward S. Noyes and the other Fellows and their wives present. After sherry in the lounge and a fancy dinner, Phil Colcord told the group what Jonathan Trumbull meant to the college today. Under the organization of Captain John Kingsley, the Charities Drive solicitors, whom evervone thought were extortioners, came through in fine stvle. Trumbull not onlv Dandruff inspecton reached its goal, but surpassed it bv S200. In the fall there were cocktail parties ga- lore; the biggest were in rooms 1201, 1213, and the six-man fifth-floor room. There were other parties for the whole college as Enter- tainment Chairman John Franciscus was to- tally successful with his dances over the Cor- nell, Dartmouth, and Harvard weekends. The Council also eliminated the old levv that caused so manv whv do ha ' e to pav gripes, by substituting a voluntarv ticket to cover all three parties, or a pay as you go plan. Incidentally, Mike Stuhldreher, who last year got plenty of practice by serving as Chairman of the Entertainment Committee in Trum- bull, was sent to the Junior Prom Committee to represent the college. Trumbull Night, under the direction of Dick Moran, showed many of the football movies and sponsored talks bv such men as Dr. Waterman on the flight of insects. Everyone forgets about the people who have become so much a part of Trumbull that tliev are taken for granted. The guards, Cicorge and Joe, keep their vigil until 1, when things begin to happen. Veronica, who sits behind the dining hall desk and greets late stragglers with a cheery Good Morning, ' always looks the other wav when vour guest doesn ' t ha e his transfer card or vou xour coat and tie at dinner.

FinalK there ' s Patsy Sperling who is alwa s helplul when vou go Everybody ' s looking for a girl to the Master ' s office and efficient w ith edicts on the bulletin board. The College Aides, Chuck Har ' ev, Dick Bjork, Frank Nicoll and the rest went about their quiet ways making the college function more smoothly. They even made the News when an eager heeler found them inspecting the rooms for damage. The lounge piano was almost constantly in use by John Houk, Artie Doran, or Marye Miller, surrounded by a group of pulsating fans, and again by the more serious Larry Gushee and Wayne Towner. Beards were the fad around mid-year, but many were such disappointments to their owners that by the end of Februan, ' there was only one left. Perhaps one of the more interesting epi- sodes of the year was the crutches incident of 1201. It began with the college welcoming back John Meader, who had been absent for some tirne due to injuries he had received in an automobile accident, but who nevertheless was walking well on crutches. Shortly after- wards, Geb Kilborne went skiing, and there decided that the beginner ' s slope was too easy, e cn for a beginner. Thus another pair of stilts entered the room. But the clima.x came when Don Parsons slipped executing a difficult Charleston step, and was forced for several weeks to make use of a cane— gold-headed, of course. The inner court was its usual noisy sell with so mebody yelling to ask the Sociology assignment at 12, as you were just trying to get to sleep, and a few stragglers swinging and singing in at 12:35, when you had just gotten to sleep. Then at seven the alarms began and continued at 5-minute intervals till 8:13 and the last minute breakfast rush. Mrs. Nicholas ' teas were again the warm and friendly Tuesday afternoon parties that attracted many to the Master ' s house to chat informally over cookies, sandwiches, and tea. Such are the crowded and disconnected memories of 1951-1952. They were filled with many pleasant happenings and friendships that have made Trumbull more than just a place for 233 men to eat and sleep during the past year. —George Watson III Townies mode] in TruiuhuU fashion show Athletics X HE lall season began with a bang and never got quite to the whimper stage. Touch football, boasting such stalwarts as Jay Selz, Dave Balboni, Jerry Labriola, Jim Plecas, Steve Hutchcraft, Parke Lllrich, Al Schwartz, Howie Walker, Steve Weiner, and John Ben- jamin, won four straight, then lost four. The last game was a 12-12 tic, iving them an ab- solute .500 season. The more rugged brand of football was somewhat less rewarding, though a 7-6 win over TD and a 0-0 tie with Silliman put us in third place in the North League. Unani- mous All-League Lineman Stu Livingston, captained a team that had spirit as well as ability. It was their privilege to be the first team in o er two vears to score against the Mitres. Sherman ' s long pass to Carey accom- plished this feat. The linemen for the Bull squad included Mel Bedrick, Ted Chase, Al Cooper, Jerry Hawke, Paul Leserman, Rusty Peacock, Bob Katz, Captain Stu Livingston, Dick O ' Connell, and Jack Zimmerman, while the backfield was composed of John Clark, Jim Carey, Dave Penning, George Sherman, Tom Jeffries, Parke Lllrich, Connie Nor- mann, and Frank Nicoll. Soccer, under Captain Tonv Jack, finished the season with a 4-2-3 record and a tie for third place. Veterans Bob Nubel, Phil Wrench, Dan Hughes, George Smyth, Chuck Harvey, Jim Isherwood, Bud Miller, Bob Bacon, Fred Maher, Howie Walker, and Don Sperling saw action in most of the contests with Sid Bogardus, Brock Dilworth, Dean Temple, and Dick Vila the sophomore stand- outs. There we were in hith place in our race for the Tyng Cup, and the lookout wasn ' t dismal at all, despite our poor start in Winter sports. Both the A and B basketball squads lound themselves alter their first two losses ami went on to successful seasons. It was the ' ictorv over Timothv Dwight that turnctl the tide. Captain Bob Bacon led the A team of Chase, Collins, Ellis, Fin- layson, Fischl, Hadley, Perrv, Rusnak, and Lllrich through its season with ability in both coaching and playing, and his judgment was never challenged. The B squad, led by Al Robin, didn ' t turn in quite the record that the A ' s did, vet with performers like Shulman, Bulkley, Gurton, Jeffries, Low, Peacock, Wierzbinski, Zickl, and Kerelejza, it added its worthwhile contributions to the Tyng Cup fund. The swimming team was back to full strength with Conway, Hambright, and New- some returning to the ranks after a year ' s leave of absence, yet it found other teams were well stocked with sophomore stars. Old men were the backbone of the team, but their lumbago didn ' t keep them from a fine list of wins. The road was rocky but Captain Steve Hutchcraft ably guided Schwartz, Hughes, Normann, Wright, Yeaman, Durand, Fran- ciscus, Nicoll, and the above mentioned re- turnees to a top flight record. Hockey, captained by John Clark, was the great impro cment in our w inter season. The two lines that turned the trick were the sophomore line of Beadle, Temple, and Treadwaw and the veteran line of Clark, Gallun, and I Icist. Defensemen Brokaw and Kilborne and goalies Watson and Dilworth rounded off the squad. Captain Phil Wrench led a po yerful squash team to a successful season while Chuck Flarvey et al brought Trumbull handball into its own. In the spring, crew was the shining light under Stu Livingston ' s tutelage, while Tim Tread way ' s nine shone lorth in their new unilorms. —Francis Nicoll i ll ' ihiii ics ilic IhiU ' s war cry wJiile shootino in Calhoun aanie TriinihiiU defeats Piersoii despite early score COUNCIL OF COLLEGE AIDES Ronald F.

The dan ger of sunburn arose from Bob Hall ' s new seating plan which gave all the tickets on the shady side of the Bowl to alumni and sent the undergraduates to sit next to the op- ponents, split from them only by an extension of the fifty-yard line. This resulted in addi- tional revenue for the Athletic Association, so the grumbles that immediately arose seemed to be dying out as the season grew older. Former Eli grid star Ducky Pond brought the first opposition to the Bulldogs in the form of his charges at small Bates College. The boys from Maine simply didn ' t ha c it, and about the only time there was anv icar in the Yale stands was when starting Halt- back Senav hobbled the opening kickoff into the end zone and only barely managed to re- cover in time to avoid a two-point lead for Bates. This was the only time Pond ' s charges were able to threaten the six-game Yale series in which they arc vet scoreless. Senay soon made up tor this early mishap by picking up eight yards on the next play, to begin the first scoring drive. From then on the first string was only occasionally seen, but whoever was on the field managed to do some scoring. The result: 48-0 for the Blue. The final touch- down was made on a twenty-yard run by McCandless, who was married in a pre-game ceremony. The reputation ot Zug Zastrow, hero of Navy ' s upset ictory o ' er Arm - in 1950, was enough to gi ' e the Middies the prc- game edge. The game itselt, a 7-7 tie, was in mm BPilillllUIUmHWBBWMgWiiimiuiiniitmiM some a s odd. It was said by more than one observer that Yale won the first halt, Navy the second half. The Elis were trying to clinch it in the first, to stave off defeat in the second. Of importance throughout the game was the large number of crippling penalties which changed the outcome considerably. Ryan ' s winning plunge was nullified by a Yale penalty, and Navy ' s overanxious line contributed many offside penalties. The Blue football fortunes never got as liigh again, as the following week found imderdog Brown on the large end of a 14-13 decision. The last minutes of the game were perhaps the most frenzied all season. They lound the crowd unbelievingly watching the Brown line bunched to repel Jim Ryan ' s three bucks at the center. Each time they knew he was coming, in a desperate attempt to win a game that Yale didn ' t deserve, and each time they threw him back. Columbia ' s Baker Field was then the scene of another disappointing afternoon for Yale. The story of the game was approximately that the light Blue had Mitch Price, we had no off ense. Captain Bob Spears once again sparked the defense with his expert lineback- ing, and when he was hurt in the final period, people started filing out. The scoring punch just avoided the Elis all afternoon. In the first half the deepest penetration of the Columbia territory was the twenty-six-yard line. The second half ' s biggest thrill for Yale fans came with Captain Spears ' fifty-six-yard runback of the opening kickoff. The twenty-four-yard line was the end of this trip, and the two seven-pointers which Columbia gained in the first half proved to be the end ot the scoring.

( uLhicUs I l- ' CI- u Cll stuns u, lull interesting gamble in the torm ot J.V. Quar- terback Molloy, who started and played the whole first quarter doing nothing but pass- ing. His success was partial, making consid- erable yardage, but losing the ball on inter- ceptions, two of which produced early Cornell scores. Molloy didn ' t play again through the last three periods. During the second halt, the Blue put up an encouraging struggle, and pulled off some good gains, although thev were unable to score. The final score of 27-0 is not very indicatiye of how much of a game it was. The rhyming duo of Shears and Spears vyas the combination of power which proved too much for Colgate on the 27th of October. The Blue scored in every period, with two tallies recorded by Shears, one by Woodsum, and another by Jones. Parcells lofted three of four extra-point attempts through the goal posts. Captain Spears turned in his best of- fensive afternoon, managing to break through Colgate for a total of 127 yards in 19 tries Coach, Cajilaiii-clect, and retiring Captain ' ' : :atMJ Conivay picks iip yardage aoninst CoJoate Despite hahuv day only a few turn out to see Spears a n d c o m p a n y crush Cohate for a 6.6 yard average. This was in addition to a sterling job at defense. Further encour- agement came From the passing of both Sophomore Molloy and Senior Jim Ryan. The game was marred by the numerous fum- bles, Yale giving Colgate the ball for free six times out of the seven times they dropped the ball. Still, victory tasted sweet enough to make up for such errors. This game was the start of suggestions bv armchair strategists that quarterback duties be lifted from Jim Ryan, leaving him ready ior the halfback slot, and that Molloy be made the regular field general. Mud and snow weren ' t included in the official program for the Dartmouth game, but their part was considerable. Yale was playing football again, and those who watched the game despite the elements found it a truly stirring contest. This was a game that could have gone either way, and after the inspired first half which saw a Blue touchdown in the first seven minutes on a blocked punt and Parcells ' field goal giving the Elis an edge of 1 0-0 at half time, there seemed to be every likelihood that the three-year string of losses to Dartmouth might come to an end. The second half saw one touchdown in the third, another in the fourth per iod, and despite this discouraging display, there was at the end some hope for Yale as they put down another bid for ' ictory which came to naught on the Green eleven-yard line. 14-10 was as close as we could get to Dartmouth. After a week ' s rest the Yale squad went to visit the New Jersey home of the Princeton Tiger. Princeton was picked to win their fifth straight Big Three title, and that is just what they proceeded to do. By the middle of the third quarter, Kazmaier had broken the Ivy 130 League offensive record of 1610 yards, and this is one of the clearest ways ol explaining the Yale-Princeton game in 1951. Casual Kaz accounted for all four Princeton TDs, passing for three and running the last. Few Yale observers were disappointed with the much-touted Tiger star. Yale was able to hold Princeton scoreless for thirteen minutes, and to threaten the Princeton goal line twice, but each time fumbles prevented fulfillment o: the threat to the final score of 27-0. The post-Thanksgiving meeting of Har- vard and Yale was not the meeting of two good teams, but it produced a large amount of excitement for those who viewed it first hand. Neither team had a spectacular record to maintain, but this game is always impor- tant, regardless ol the previous records. Jim Ryan put the Blue well ahead in the first half by scoring once on a 47-yard dash through the center of an eight-man line and again from the three, after the score had been set up by Jerry Conway ' s 35-yard sprint. Harvard managed a comeback and with five minutes to play in the last period, Harvard felt better, being on top, 21-14. Molloy then passed his way to a desperate, last-minute score, and Parcells calmly kicked the all-important t ing point. Instead of the walkaway Yale first half, instead of the comeback Harvard second half, the game went to neither team, with a final verdict of 21-21.

For some reason this seemed t o Frighten them. Playing an overly cautious brand oF ball the Elis played aggressively onlv in the first halF. Hank Blodget scored For Yale in the first period, and aFter a scoreless second period the aggressive tendencies disappeared, and Navv Found opportunity to score twice. No such indecision was exhibited bv the Blue when they met Brown the ne.xt week. Despite the loss oF Halfback Saunders, the team scored seven times in a game during which the team from Providence could not score. The first three quarters ot the game with PennsvKania were all Yale. Scoring opened in the first period when Muller put a fast shot into the nets. Penn then tied it up, but the tie was short-lived as Captain Bill Cordes passed to Blodget. The second half found the honors reversed as Blodget passed to Cordes, and Muller made it 4-1 on a pass from Steele with two seconds left in the third period. A last-period surge brought two more Penn goals, but the Yale defense was able to prevent further threats from materializing. Cornell ' s goalie. Chuck Baglow, was the By in the ointment the next week as he man- aged to turn back wave after Blue wave. The game was marked by the Yale offense and the Cornell deFense. At halF time there was no score, and aFter two swiFt drives by Cornell, the game again settled down to an e ' en Third Row—Bechhold, MayJiaui. Bonsai, LacJieJier. Hopkins. Slieldon, Spaeth.

Toscanini. Muller, Ruckgaher. CTop ' ) Blodget scares Broivii into 7-0 siihiiiis- sion; (BoUovi) Keep your eye on the hall proposition. The only Yale score in the 2-1 loss was on the rebound from a penalty shot. At Springfield it was the talented toe of Halfback Saunders that clinched the game for the Blue. Playing without Blodget, the team went to a 2-0 lead, then lost this lead completely. This set the stage, and the pen- alty kick was all that Saunders needed to bring the game home to New Haven, 3-2. This was again the margin by which the Blue defeated Wesleyan, and once again it was Yale scoring the final goal from a tie. W ' eslevan held a one-point edge at the start ol the final period, but Cordes, assisted by Zachceier, made it two-all, and Blodget headed the ball in with three minutes left. The Alumni team and the Varsity overrode the decision that the day was too bad for play and the Varsity was victorious, 3-2, the third straight victory by that score. With the score at the usual two-all Paul Dietche was the tleciding factor as he put the game away with liis accurate penalty kick. Four of the five scores against hapless Connecticut were the work of Captain Cor- des, as he went on a one-man spree. Near the end of the first period he deflected Rosen- berg ' s shot. In the third period passes from Hopkins and then from Muller were driven in, and in the final period Cordes scored again. Steward scored the other goal. A fourth-period goal by Cordes was the single score in a muddy game against the highly-regarded Trinity squad. Ignoring the water standing on the field, the Elis were able to make the Trinity goalie the star of his team, while keeping the Trinity attack from giving Goalie Ruckgaber too much work. The string of one-point victories was mo- mentarily halted when the squad went to Princeton. Even two tense five-minute over- time periods proved to be too short to break the tie created when the Tigers scored with less than five minutes to plav. The only Yale goal was set up by Miles when he just missed a cross-field shot. The free ball was pushed in by Cordes early in the second period. For the first time the Blue was held score- less for loin- jxriods, and only in the first of two o ' ertime periods was Toscanini able to put the ball where the Elis wanted it. Again the Blue was in control of the ball, but scores were hard to come bv. The overtime tally broke the deadlock and gave Yale a record of eight wins, two losses, and a tie for 1951. CROSSCOUNTRY X HE harriers under Bob Giegengack com- piled a respectable record of two wins in four dual meets, a first in the Big Three meet with Harvard and Princeton, a second at Columbia in a quadrangular meet, a fourth in the Heptagonals, and 18th in the IC4A. The opener came against Navy on Septem- ber 29. Lack of conditioning was at least partlv the cause of the loss, 31-24. Captain George Dole finished second, other finishers being Stanlev at 3, Clearv at 7, Clifford at 9, and Albanese at 10. Brown proved to be less speedv. and the Elis were victorious, 19-43. Taking si.x of the first seven places, the Blue was paced bv Dole, who beat Brown ' s well-regarded Walt Molineux by thirty-eight seconds. The second place rating Yale received in the four-wav meet at Columbia was due most- Iv to the efforts of Dole and Clifford, who took seventh and eighth. The final scores were: Pitt 15, Yale 60, Dartmouth 73, and Columbia 102. Cornell furnished the closest meet of the season in o ' ercoming the harriers, 26-29. Four of the first seven places were taken by the Elis, led bv Dole at 3. In preparation for the Big Three meet, Yale then took Fordham, 20-40. Although Princeton took first and Harvard second, they were unable to match the Yale team strength, which accounted for eight out of eighteen places. Excellent running conditions marked the Heptagonals, and ac- cording to form the Elis finished behind Army, as well as two teams that had already beaten the Blue, Navy and Cornell. In the IC4A meet Yale was not as pow- erful in an enormous field which found thirty schools with five or more finishers. Placing for Yale were Dole, Clearv, Stanley, Garo- falo, and Albanese. Second Row—Pearsall (Manager), Ellis, Tyree, Meader, Stanley, Handehuaii, Giegen- gack (Coach); Front Pwiv—Tsanjoures, Cleary, Gnrofalo, Dole (Captain), Efinger, Clifford, Albanese. Colgate seems impotent against high scoring Spence Schiiaitter BASKETBALL (Starting off on an historical note, Eddie McHugh was lost to the basketball team his sophomore year as a result ot the knee iniury he sustained in the opening game against Rutgers. This loss was felt, and as a junior McHugh was elected Captain, despite the tew minutes of varsity experience he had to his credit. This past season he was again the Captain and mainstay, but despite his efforts as a playmaker, Coach Hobson ' s charges put up a mediocre record of fourteen wins and fourteen losses. December brought the opening of the sea- son and Fordham spoiled it for the Blue, 67-63. Travelling to Trinity Yale had a better time of it away from the Payne Whitney court and won easily, 75-59. NYU nicked the Blue, 68-67, but Colgate was taken as easy prey, 83-64. The win-loss alternation continued, and Yale next lost to University of Connecticut, 56-47. Two days after Christmas the squad started a road trip that brought in victories over Miami, 70-68, and Tampa, 80-63, a loss to Stetson, 65-52, and a win over Pittsburgh, 62-55. The University of Puerto Rico lost to the Blue at the Payne Whitney Gym to start the new year right, but the University of Third Row—Ludenian (Manager), Plecas, Denicak, Buchanan. Smith. Sears. Harding, Hohson (Coach); Second Row—Schnaitter, Lahriola, LeRor. McHiigh (Captain), Brenner, Treat, Weher; Front Row—Dishnmv, Kindel. Pennsvhanin brought deteat to Yale, 81-55. Brown yielded, 64-59, and Army, 71-52, but another loss came from Cornell, 60-52. An Amherst five went down to Blue defeat, 58-55, but Navy won, 76-74. Yale proved too much for Springfield, 76-71, with Weber as the star of the game, scoring t ventv-se ' en points. Labriola and Harding combined to equal Weber ' s output. The second defeat at Cornell ' s hands came at 71-61. A home and away series with Dartmouth found each team victor o ' er their home courts. Yale won the first game, 81-57, Dartmouth the second, 59-50. Coach f-lobson ' s slowdown proved to be almost enough to fool favored Princeton. At Dillon Gvm the isitino Elis held a lead at the hall, but Princeton ' s tall men had too good control of the backboards and over- hauled the Blue to win bv fourteen points in the end. Final score: 58-44. The second game of the Princeton series was exactly the same story, as Yale battled Princeton almost to a standstill in the first half, onlv to lold and lose control in the second, ultimately losing, 65-59. Columbia proved too strong on its own court, and the Blue lost another game, 69-62. Holy Cross won, 68-59, and Columbia visited Payne Whitney, but were again too strong for the Elis, making six straight losses. This last game was especially a heartbreaker since Columbia was only able to win when Yale fell aiiait in the last four minutes. Lahriohi after the haU Traditional rival Harvard made the Fresh- man Prom Weekend more pleasant by yield- ing, 71-65, as sophomore Spence Schnaitter scored nineteen and Captain McHugh sev- enteen points. A close game most ot the way, Yale led, 39-36, at the half, and there was never a large spread between the teams. In the last home game for Captain Mc- Hugh, Yale pulled a brilliant upset over a Penn team that had previouslv beaten the Blue bv twentv-si.x points. Although this ga ' e Princeton a shoo-in first place in the Eastern Intercollegiate Basketball League competition, the team played really inspired ball. During the game Ernie Beck broke Tonv La elli ' s EIBL scoring record, but the man who had scored an average of thirtv points per game for the last three outings was held to eleven, mostly due to the expert guarding of big sophomore Jim Plecas. Penn was held to 64, while Schnaitter with 24 led the wav to Yale ' s 91 points. A seven-point deficit facing the cagers in the first period failed to dismay them, and the finale for both teams ended a disastrous 5-22 season for Harvard and was perhaps anticlimatic for the Blue after the Penn up- set. Jerrv Labriola, high scorer with 17 points, opened the second period with two set shots, and then the rest of the team came in for their Hcks. With four points as a lead at the half, the Blue squad in the third period went ahead 41-28, and at the end it was 71-51 for Yale. Despite the neat block Weber oets the shot off Labriola adds two aoainst Colmte mm :. t i Liifkiu scores agniust AlC HOCKEY J T the close of the season Boston College and Boston University retused to take part in a four-way playoff to determine the Eastern representative to the NCAA tourney, so Yale and St. Lawrence were sent by default. The Eastern hockev picture, as Yale coach Murray Murdoch said, was of many teams so close that any one could beat any other on a given night. Yale had a team that fitted into this picture perfectly, with nights when they could beat anyone and others when thev were not quite as good. Early December brought the first test, and Yale was off to a good start with a 6-2 win over RPI. Waxing hotter against North- eastern the visitors were humbled, 7-0, at the Arena. Demonstrating the depth of the Yale offense, each goal was scored by a different man. Haughty Boston College defeated the Blue, 2-1, and a western trip during Christ- mas ' acation brought an unfortunate series of games in which Yale lost live out of eight. A split with Colorado College, 2-5 and 6-3, preceded two losses to Denver University. The University of Michigan was a more generous host, as the Elis picked up two vins, 7-4 and 4-3. Cktting back to the regular schedule, Yale was shut out while Brown sent the puck past One of the eleven shots that hit the Middlehury nets Pete Cruikshank five times. The Olympic team also shut Yale out, but only two Olympic shots lit the red lights. Justifiably annoyed at what all this was do- ing to their record, Yale then got mad and creamed Dartmouth, 11-2. Figuring strongly in this explosive victory were Leigh Quinn with three goals and Noble, Douglas, and Brown with two each. The first period was not in keeping with the rest oF the game, for Dartmouth led, 2-1; then the roof fell in. Army was similarly mistreated, and the cadets were able to score but one to the ten goals for Yale. Boston University hit Yale when it was hot, and Goalie Cruikshank de- flected forty of the forty-three shots poured on him, while the Yale attack was hitting for five. The Elis repaid Pentagonal foe Brown for the earlier shutout by a 6-4 win which saw three Yale goals in less than as many minutes and a terrific pace throughout. An interest- ing feature of the game was the goal scored bv Captain Harn, ' Havemeyer when Brown pulled out their goalie in the last minutes, as they were one goal behind. It was a long clearing shot that skidded free for more than half the Arena. St. Lawrence was the last team able to beat the Blue, and it was one of those nights. Third Row— Free mail, i Mauuocr j.

It was close and interesting all the way, with Harvard leading, 2-1, after the first period and then two quick Yale goals, an- other for the Blue, then a final score for Harvard. The American International Col- lege yielded, 11-2, setting the stage for the finale, the second Harvard game. s with Princeton, Yale found foreign ice no problem, and a 5-2 win brought to New i ia ' en Big Three and Pentagonal honors. Howe and Ouinn each scored twice, the last goal being the work of Mike Brown. Harvard opened the scoring at 35 seconds of the first period, but Howe and Quinn struck for two and Yale vas never again headed, although Harvard tied it up halfway through the first periotl.

Several members of the team also entered the Fiske Trophy Race. The first appearance of Yale as a team was at the Williams Winter Carnival, which was won by Middlebury, Dartmouth taking sec- ond. Frank Nicoll had the best jump for Yale, but the team could only surpass Amherst. The following weekend found Yale second to last again, despite the efforts of acting-captain Ted Ewing who took eighth in the jump, at the Eastern Intercollegiate Skiing Association Class B Championships. At the same time one group was at the Connecticut Class C Downhill Champion- ships, another, paced by Ewing who placed in the Class A race, competed at the United States E.A.S.A. Slalom Championships. An eighth in the large field competing at the fiarvard-Bromley Slalom ended regular competition until after Spring vacation. The last race was the Yale-Harvard-Princeton Sla- lom which brought to New Haven the Big Three Laurels.

WRESTLING X HE upper weight dixisions ' erc where most of the wresthng team ' s strength i , and Captain George Graveson, Pettit, Downey, and Merriman put up the best season ' s rec- ords. Great hopes were logically centered in Graveson, last year the Intercollegiate Champ in the East, and runncrup in the NCAA Tournament. Rutgers started the Blue off on the right foot, yielding, 18-14, but the ne. t four were losses for Yale. Springfield won, 14-13; Pitts- burg, 15-11; Columbia, sparked by blind Gene iManfrini, 18-6; and Brown, 15-H. The tide began to turn then, and peren- nially powerful Lehigh bowed to the Blue, Pettit loses an early decision to Rutaers 20-13. Penn surprisingly was no problem at all, giving Yale a welcome 27-2 victory, and Princeton, despite the efforts of football star and heavyweight champ Brad Glass, was on the short end of a 14-11 score. Army broke the team streak and Army ' s Palukas handed Graveson his first defeat, but the final 16-10 win over Harvard made the Elis Big Three Champions. The crucial match was won from behind by Pettit at 147 pounds.

Despite the fact that many of the outstanding performers were ill, a sufficiently strong team was sent to Phil- adelphia to take a mediocre Pennsylvania team, 57-27. After vacation the regular home season be- gan against Brown. Wayne Moore broke teammate Marshall ' s American record for the 440 at 4:30.8. Brown ' s only first came in the 400-vard relay; although several races were close, each time the Yale swimmer touched out his Brown rival. The score was 61-23 for Yale. Cornell was the next victim to the tunc of 67-17. Again the opponents took only one event, this time the 200-vard breast-stroke. Only in the 100-vard sprint did Cornell place two men. At West Point three pool records were set by Yale in the course of an easy 61-23 win. The ace medley relay team of Thoman, O ' Connor, and Sheff started things off with a pool record of 2:50.3. Jimmy McLane set a pool record for 220 yards and Moore set an- other mark at 440 yards. Army won only the individual medley. Incidentally, Army was the last team to beat Yale, seven years and seventv-si.x meets earlier, and the revenge li !ffiK H!IBil motive makes a win o er Army especially sweet. Springfield was simply crushed, 67-17, and the crowd was perhaps disappointed to find only one record tied, no new records. Navy fell next, 56-28. The medley relay team broke the listed world record, but failed to break the recent time of Ohio State, 2:47.1, by 1.2 seconds. Marshall ' s first ap- pearance of the season brought an easy victory in the 220. Because of the approaching Swim Carnival many first-stringers were held out against Columbia, but those that did swim turned in a workmanlike performance to win, 63-21. At Hanover Dartmouth yielded, 53-31, and the Elis set pool records in the medley relay, the 220 freestyle, the 50 freestyle, and the 440 freestyle. The win over La Salle was somewhat colorless as the second string took an easy 49-35 win. Snow delayed the team ' s arrival at Princeton, but once there the medley relay team swept from the record books the Comedy cUviiiii at the Swim Carnival The three Ms, Sheff, and Chamberlain pool record set h Princeton last year. Yale ]ilaced two men in every e ' ent except the 50-vard sprint. The reputation o( the stars on the Bain- hridge Naval Training Station team brought all the Yale team into the water, which was enough to form a 51-33 Blue victory. The outstanding perFormance of the day was turn- ed in by sophomore Ken Welch in upsetting Yale graduate and last year ' s Intercollegiate di -ing champ Roger Hadlieh. Unbeaten Har ' ard was no match for Cap- tain |im Carroll and the Blue juggernaut. This 56-28 ictorv ended the season, the eighty-si.xth straight dual-meet victory. Al- though most of the Eli stars were in the water, no records fell. Harvard took three firsts, but in two of these events the top Yale performers were not in action. Welch almost pulled his second straight upset, but one bad dive left Har ' ard diver Dillingham with a slim winning margin of 122.58 to Welch ' s 113.82. Olympic quality competition came in the 220 which pitted America ' s McLane against Australia ' s Marshall. Either way Yale A ' as sure of first and second, and actually Marshall won out in 2:07. Powerful Ohio State gained 41 points from its freshman stars, enough to win the NCAA meet at Princeton. By Ivy rules Yale couldn ' t use yearlings, but the next week at the Payne Whitney pools they did get assistance as the New Haven Swim Club, and with this they held onto the AAU title.

SQUASH i5QUASH continued to be one of the suc- cessful minor sports at Yale, and the 1952 squad under Coach Johnny Skillman and Captain Nick Bradv dropped only one match during the season. McGill was the Hrst to fall to the powerful racquetmen, but the mar gin of 4-3 was one of the closest all year. The New Haven Lawn Club was not as luckv and took only three matches out of nine. Amherst had even less luck when they visited Payne Whitney, and they were un- able to win a match. This failed to impress Army one bit, and at West Point the only defeat of the season was handed to the Blue, 4-5. This aroused certain members of the team, and led by undefeated number one man Blair Murphy the team yielded not a match to either Fordham or Trinity. Navy won two and the Hartford Golf Club but one match, and the next two encounters were shutouts against Dartmouth and Wesleyan. A fairly easy win over Williams, 7-2, left only Big Three competition. Wins over Harvard, 6-3, and Princeton, 8-1, left the Blue with Big Three laurels and a thirteen and one record for the season. FENCING This year marked Papa Grasson ' s thirty- first year with Yale fencing, but it was n(_)t a very satisfactory season to close out such a long career. The season didn ' t start as early as usual and the first meet came January 10. CCNY had just enough power and finally eked out a 15-12 victory. Columbia had far too much strength and won, 18-9. The University of Pennsylvania took a 16-14 decision, the same score by which Princeton humbled the Blue. The Pentagonal meet brought Army, Navy, Harvard, Princeton, and Yale together, and as a team Yale was lourth. Indi ' iduallv Yale took two thirds and a fourth. The season ended March 8 with the tradi- tional match with Harvard. This brought together the teams of two retiring coaches who had been friendly rivals since 1929 when Peroy took over the Cambridge team. Unfortunately it was the Cantabs who managed to close their coach ' s career on a winning note as thev won, 16-11. The real backbone of the win was the overwhelming power of the Harvard foil team. The 8-1 margin in the I oil was too much— the Elis could only lake the saber anil epce iiy identi- cal scores of 5-4.

POLO w. HEN 1951 Coach Jack Crawford was called up by the Army, his brother Allan took over the helm of the Yale Polo team, which receives all kinds of aid from the Athletic Association except financial, and is thus en- tirelv self-supporting through the plavcrs and the Yale Polo Association. The Farmington Polo Club was too strong for the Blue in the opening game, but Mt. Carmel, made up largely of graduated Yale Polo stars, vielded, as did Farmington in the second encounter. The regular college meets began against Cornell, and at Ithaca Yale found itself on the short end of an 18-10 score, despite the efforts of Hannah and Captain Jackson, who both scored four goals. Princeton easily won, 14-7, the next week. Outstanding player for Yale in the game was sophomore Mai Wallop ' ith four goals. When Harvard took to the field thev were overcome bv the Blue attack which this time found Stone high scorer with eight goals. The National Intercollegiate Semi-finals found Yale facing New Mexico. Yale was not up to this level of competition and New Mex- ico won, 17-4. In a consolation match which proved to be little consolation to Yale, Stan- ford University showed up in the Yale Ar- mors ' with a team that had only once before played polo indoors, but they won, 15-11. Yale ' s starting trio of Jackson, Miller and Wallop was replaced during the last two chuk- kers bv Stone, Hannah, and Packard. Cornell proved to be too much for the Yale riders, and their earlier win margin of eight points was exceeded in the 20-11 defeat ab- sorbed by the Blue. The final game of the season found a recovered Yale team come from behind to take the University of Vir- ginia, 9-8. 153 L ' ' ) : iWWIBSt?W i?S£gffiaWEl i f gS CREW M. O MOST of the undergraduate body, the 1951 Crew season was noted mainly bv the fact that the Blackwell Cup Regatta, more familiarly known as Derby Day, was not held at Derby, a fact which marked the end of a long series of memorable associations. There were other features of the season far more noteworthy than this, however, one of them being that at the climax of the year, the an nual New London meeting with Harvard, the Varsity crew found themselves the sprint champions of the East, and actually the favor- ite to beat the last crew of retiring Harvard Coach Bolles. To be sure, the season began on an incon- spicuous note with a four length defeat at the hands of a visiting English crew from Cambridge. This loss is in part e.xplained bv the fact that the visitors had a considerable edge in practice time, and also that Coach Rathschmidt was experimenting with differ- ent combinations to form a team that would function more smoothly together. Apparently, moving John Hincks and Charlie Wight up from the Junior Varsity was the answer, for two weeks after their first loss, the crew upset the Pennsylvania eight by a close four yards and Columbia by a larger margin. This was the fifth consecutive victory for a Yale crew on the Harlem River in the twenty year series. The good auguries seen in this victory con- tinued to hold good as the team through its own, and later through alumni contributions, was able to make the previously postponed trip to i ladison, Wisconsin, to meet the Badgers, an unknown quantity. The boating lor this contest was unchanged from the previous week and was as follows: Bow, Cap- . nrr t, Left: Ralph Steplian and British Captain Bryan Lloyd after the Cambridge i ictory on the Housatonic Second roiv Stephan QCaptniii ' ), Beehe, H ' nicks, Schmidt, Vi}j,lit, lleiUiniu, Loriin N.

Stevens, Cox tain Ralph Stephan; 2, Dave Beebe; 3, John Hincks; 4, Courty Schmidt; 5, Chailie Wight; 6, Karl Heilman; 7, Bill Loring; Stroke, Nortv Stevens; and Cox, By Stevens. Through the choppy waters ot Lake Menona the Elis used a low beat to win by an easy three length margin. Encouraged bv this success, the crew journeyed to Ithaca on May 12th and there met the favored Princeton Tigers as well as the less regarded Cornell and Syracuse shells. Taking an immediate lead of a length and a quarter, Cox By Stevens managed to hold an Eli margin throughout the race, never having less than the final edge of three-quarters of a length over the repeated bids of the favorites. Starting fast with the count at 39, Yale quickly dropped to 34, and the body of the race was taken at an easy 28. Steadily under- stroking Princeton, Stevens only gradually upped the count as Princeton spurts necessi- tated such action. Both crews finished at a sprint beat of 37. With victory came recog- nition of Yale as the power of the East, for Princeton had pre ' iouslv held that ranking. Lake Carnegie was the scene of the final Yale encounter of the regular season, and here the EARC sprint championship was at stake. Favored for the first time, the Elis met their traditional rivals. Harvard and Prince- ton, in the finals, and managed to come from behind to take the Cantab shell with the power of their all-out finish. Princeton had to settle for a poor third, two lengths behind.- The time was thoroughlv creditable— 6: 18.4. Not onlv did this mark the first win for the Elis in the six year old EARC event, but it was also the first time the Big Three IkkI met in solo competition in seventv-five vcars of intercollegiate rowing. Yale eliminated Cornell and Syracuse in its initial encounter, while its two opponents in the finals were easily eliminating their op- ponents with relative ease. The Cantabs thus met their second defeat in fourteen years of Yale competition under Tom Bolles. This win at two thousand yards w as enough, however, to gi ' e the position ol la ' oritc to Policy conference with Coach Rathschiuidt the Elis when thev met }lai arcl again, this time at New London on June 22nd and w ith a four mile course to navigate. The biggest crowd since 1941 was on hand to witness this ancient rivalry, and for two miles they watched an exciting race with the Elis main- taining a slight edge. A series of power eights was too stiff a test for Yale, ho ' cver, and the number four man, Courty Schmidt, collapsed over his sweep, later falling hack into the lap of number three man, John Hincks. Quite unable to overcome this flaw in their machine, the Elis quickly lost their lead to the still smoothly swinging Cantabs, and at the four mile marker, five lengths of open vater separated the two rivals. At the finish S chmidt was lifted unconscious from the shell and it was lound that a stomach disorder which had impaired his digestion for two davs was the cause of his unfortunate col- lapse. That his teammates bore him no malice was evidenced by his election soon after the races as Captain of next year ' s crew. It could be deduced from the record com- piled bv the 1951 Crew, that they were pri- marily a sprint team lacking the stamina for a lono race. Such conclusions are embarrassed by the fact that earlier in the week the team had bettered the course record in practice, and by the fact that they were doing well at the two mile mark of the four mile race at New- London, when Schmidt succumbed. This evening race was the end of a sad day for the Blue, as both Freshman and Junior ' arsity teams had been beaten earlier in the day. Early season ivorkoitts on the Hoiisatonic THE 150s Sl or Yale crews, 1950 was a banner year, as the 150-pound contingent went on in its winning ways. The best combination tor the lightweights was found earlier than tor the varsity, and the first attempt found Yale ' ic- torious over MIT at Derby. Atter exchanging the lead several times during the first half of the race with a strong Kent crew, Yale managed to hold the lead by maintaining a lower count throughout the rest of the race, meeting the flags at 4:42, si. seconds ahead of the prep school boat. Only a week later the Harlem River was the scene of a third victory for the light- weight group, this time over Pennsylvania and Columbia. The ne.xt race was for the Gold- thwaite Cup, and Coach Roy Rom managed to sweep the Charles River, as varsity, javvec, and freshman lightweights were victorious. The varsity boating was: 1, Newton; 2, Mose- ley; 3, Keller; 4, Fowler; 5, Norem; 6, Du- rand; 7, Jones; Stroke, McKenzie; and Cox, Burt. The Blue won easily over Harvard and Princeton, which finished in that order in the finals. The Eli time of 7: 13.3 compares favor- ably with the Cantab listing of 7:18.2. To close out the season the lightweights went again to the Charles River, this time for the Eastern Association of Rowing Col- leges Championship. ' ith the same boating they had exhibited a week earlier, the Elis were unable to ward off the threat of the powerful Penn team they previously defeated. Penn led all the way with varying margins, and the Blue, in failing to overtake them, was handed its first intercollege defeat in two years. Second row— McKenzie, Jones.

LTHOUGH missing such standouts as the graduated hardware twins, Fuchs and Frank, the 1951 track team tucked under its belt a winter season which was highHghted by the Heptagonal Games. Yale took a second place rating behind Armv. The team then headed for the sunny South for extra practice during Spring vacation. At the Carolina Relays, George Appel set a new meet mark for pole vaulters at thirteen feet, five and a fourth inches. The Southern Relavs found the Blue second behind LSU. The outdoor dual meet season began with Columbia, which found a Blue sweep in the shot-put, discus, and hammer throw. Coach Giegengack ' s charges also placed one-two in the quarter, mile, and two mile runs, the high hurdles, the high jump, and the pole vault. The Penn Relays was the ne.xt test, and the mile relay garnered a second, with highly touted Cornell breaking the tape. Yale ' s twenty-eighth straight dual-meet victory came at the hands of Princeton. Even without the services of Captain Swope, forced to retire from the 440 and mile relay team because of a bad leg, the squad turned out enough power to take ten events. Meet records were established by George Hippie in the high jump (6 ' 3V2 ) and by the mile relay team at 3:22.9. Twentv-eight was all, though, and Har- vard, the team that had last defeated Yale in a dual meet, again pulled the trick, winning a meet that wasn ' t decided until the final mile relav. Tod Lewis of the Blue was again a double winner in the 220 and 100 yard dashes. This meet was doubly important, as the men who placed first and second were to make up the combination squad to meet 0. - ford and Cambridge in England. From the results Yale placed eleven men to Harvard ' s ten. Yale had to settle for second again in the Heptagonals, the outside honors falling to Cornell.

BASEBALL J. N HIS preseason newsletter, Coach Ethan Allen predicted a big year for the 1951 base- ball team, due to the expected better hitting, an intact infield, and slight losses in the pitch- ing staff to graduation. It was an experienced team that seemed to create confidence. However, the big weakness of the ' 51 team was that the expected hitting failed to ma- terialize. With an unworthy batting average of .231, there were only two .300 hitters, McHugh and Chasanoff. Neither of these, however, was able to play the full season. The strength of the squad rested in its pitch- ers. An indication of the trouble the pitching staff found, was that during one period Bob Breckinridge allowed only two runs over 38 2 3 innings, yet this stint on the mound brought only two victories and two 1-0 shut- out tor the opponents. As a whole, the pitch- ing staff allowed only a creditable 3.31 runs per game, and defensively the team led the Ivv league in fielding. The crving need was for hitting. The season began auspiciously against the Airforce Champs at Boiling Air Base on the southern trip. The 18-5 score featured McHugh ' s home run, double, and single. Chasanoff ' s bat also spoke for three hits, and a homer was collected by Raynor. A five-run flurrv in the sixth enabled the Merriwell boys to overcome the University of Richmond, 9-8, tor the second win. The third contest in as many days found Breckinridge ' s pitching un- able to quell the North Carolina team, and though the southerners were outhit 8-6, thev won. Chris Eiiwrson Mickey Chasanoff Bill Sauudc -• I .r ' ..i P 0 ■ ' ■.• - IxrculLct pn U Duke took the measure ot Berestord and the Ehs, 3-1, in the first of their two games, while the second game saw the Blue, behind 9-0 going into the eighth, go on to win. Three runs crossed the plate in the eighth, and an eight-run cluster without benefit ot a base hit made up the ninth and the game. Next, Virginia put the win-loss record back to .500 when they made monkeys of the pitchers, winning 7-6, aided by 15 bases on balls. Chris Emerson pitched the Blue to a neat 8-2 victory over Western Maryland, in the course of which Saunders took hitting honors, with three hits for four trips to the plate. The eight game southern trip was concluded April 7 when Lafayette bowed 5-2 and the team returned to New Haven. The home opener was a win over Fordhani in which the hitting supported weak pitching. Amherst, NYU, and Bates yielded in quick succession, respectively 8-5, 8-0, and 3-0. The men from Brown then nicked starter Little for three runs, while massive Brown pitclicr Mayes held off the Bkie until the ninth. n attempted rally was killed by the Brown re- liever, and the men from Providence gained a 3-2 decision. Breckinridge then came up with a one-hitter, marred only by a single in the eighth, to take Dartmouth 5-0. Providence held off the Elis 5-2, and Co- lumbia also took home the bacon 1-0 in the tenth. Beresford, although allowing eight safe- ties while the Penn pitchers gave up but five, was able to whitewash the Quakers 6-0. The two service teams were too powerful for the Blue as Army won 6-1, and Navy eked a 1-0 win in the tenth of a heartbreaking pitcher ' s duel between Breckinridge and Navy ' s Don Metz. A suddenly toothless bulldog then lost a hopeless fight to the LlConn forces, 5-0, as the Husky pitcher went the route. Spring- licld was also too much for the Blue, scoring 6-4. The end to this four game losing streak came when Colgate ' s Coach O ' Hara refused to send his boys out on rain-soaked Yale Field in ihe second innino, and the anic was scored for the Blue bv the automatic score of 9-0. Yale had been ahead 2-0 at that time. The West Haven Sailors, local semi-pros, yielded 6-1, and the men from Tigertown be- gan the annual two game series by dropping a close one in the Blue lap, 2-1. Holy Cross was not so kind, and insisted on taking away the long end of a 4-2 score. After school ended the Elis again met Princeton and dropped their fourth game by a one point margin, 7-6. The Sailors next took the Blue for a 3-0 shutout, and against Trinity, Emerson allowed only two safeties, a single run, while his mates pounded the Trinity pitchers for seventeen hits. The re- sult was a crushing 18-1 Blue win. The season ended with the two games against Harvard. The first game at Yale Field found starter Breckinridge no problem for the Johns, and a 1 3-8 debacle greeted the eyes of the reunion crowd. This defeat left a record of six losses for the Blue in eight EIL starts. The final game was something of a face-saver, although not counted in the EIL standings. Senior Little started and went all the way against the Crimson at Cambridge. Captain Dowd ended his ball career with a grand slam homer. The eight runs recorded by the Blue in the first inning indicates the wild character of the plav, but revenge tasted sweet, Yale in- flicting the loss on Har ' ard before their Com- mencement crowd.

This, the third for Coach Harkness, is an- other mark in the rise of the ancient game of lacrosse at Yale. Both Rockefeller and goalie Dick Treadwell received honorable mention for All-America honors. Save for these two and seniors Fields and Stowell, the team re- mains intact, a good augury for spring 1952. Starting strong against Springfield in March, the Blue managed a 12-6 win at Yale Field, followed by two victories over Penn- sylvania at 16-2 and Adelphi at 16-8. Yale ' s perennial nemesis in the form of Army ' s strong squad then broke the Blue victory skein at West Point to the tune of 8-23. Travelling to New York the Elis garnered a fourth win at the expense of CCNY, 15-5. At Williamstown it was still the Blue that held the edge, and Williams bowed 7-5. The Yale applecart was then given an unkind shove by the representatives of Rutgers, as the Blue came out short on a 7-8 count. MIT was then forced to vield 14-2, and Dartmouth also gave in 5-4. The big problem of what to do with Princeton was next, and apparentlv it was unsolved, for the Tigertovvn squad hurried through a 17-1 victory. The season ended when the Elis maintained a 6-5 edge over the Harvard Johnnies at their Cambridge meeting.

Sienna College wasn ' t able to do any better as they also came out on the short end of a shutout. Healy at one, was only two over for twelve holes as he romped to an eight and six win. The closest match of the young sea- son came in the two slot, which Eli Stu Brown finally took two and one. The third consecutive shutout fell to the I31ue ' hen they met the Universitx- of Connecticut golfers. Simon ' s eight and sc en was the most lopsided one. The expected threat to their perfect season failed to materialize from Arm ' s isit to the Yale course. The soldiers went llic wa - of all flesh, yielding 7-0. Roden, at three, eked out an eight and seven victory, a noticeable win. since it was the largest of the day. Alter twenty-eight consecutive individual wins, the match with Amherst ended the in- dividual streak, as number four man Robbins lost two up on the last hole. Team record, of course, five wins. Another 7-0 score was the result of the match the following day, as the Blue swamped Holy Cross. The third match that week found the Harvard team attempt- ing to stop the juggernaut. The Crimson were able to take two matches while fi -e Elis were victorious. The Eastern Intercollegiates also proved to he highly satisfactory, as Yale took the team title, and Line Roden fought an uphill struggle to gain the individual championship through his match play lor tour roimds. The somewhat anticlimactie match with I ' rinccton ended the season with a 5-2 win lor the Elis. Besides taking the Intercollegiates, the team piled up a record of eight wins. Individually five matches were lost oxer the route, while fifty-one victories were posted. TENNIS ,A. RECORD ot thirteen wins and a single loss put Yale in unofficial second place in Eastern tennis circles behind Princeton, the only team victorious over the Blue. Princeton was ranked second only to Miami nationally, while Yale w as ranked seventh in the countrv. Captain Dick Norris started the team on its winning ways by making the Pennsylvania number one man the victim of a straight set victorv in the opener. Meanwhile, his team- mates were taking enough matches to ring up a 6-3 margin when the scores were in. The second match was even easier bait for the Blue. Columbia yielded without tak- ing a single match, pushing the Elis to three sets in only three encounters. Captain Norris found his match on April 25th in Williams sophomore ace Dick Squires, who was also responsible htr the Williams ictorv in the first doubles. However, these were the onlv Blue losses of the day, the score being 7-2. Cornell wasn ' t able to win a match and Dartmouth took but one, giving 9-0 and 8-1 Second row — Secard (Manager), Eu ' ing, Dewey, Bliss, Wood, Hooe, Keeley, Skillman (Coach); Front row — Blodget, Weinstock, Schwartz, ISorris (Captain), Fischl, Stokes, Bright victories to the Blue, and the seventh team victory was earned at the expense of Army, 8-1. Stokes was the only victim at West Point. The Llniversitv of North Carolina took only two matches to the seven that turned Blue, despite the favored position held by the south- erners before the match. Travelling to Providence did the Elis no harm apparently, because they took all nine matches from Brown. The Amherst match proved to be highly satisfactory to Coach Skillman as Norris and Schwartz met and bested the first and second ranked singles plavers in New England. Match score of 7-2 was the same as that bv which Navy bowed, while Harvard took seven matches of fifteen. Fordham couldn ' t take anv matches and only two sets. Going into the final Princeton match there were several undefeated strings besides the team ' s, but onlv Pepper Bright was able to preser ' e his in its pristine beauty. Princeton was too much for the Blue and won handilv, 7-2. ale Athletic Association Xincent C. Banker Julio M. Batista Robert A. Bechhold John I. Brokaw James J. Carroll William O. Ccxdes Doioald F.

Con- tent with two new publications in its junior year, the senior board decided to call a halt, and to restrict the number of Banner projects to six. Quality as well as quantity, you know, quietly cooed Chairman Craighead, as he tossed iManaging Editor Kipka ' s sug- gestion for a magazine for Yale ' s janitors in the waste basket. Business Manager John Furth, when not in Boston on official business, could some- times be heard to declare that the Managing Editor ' s expense account in New York war- ranted looking into. No five per center. Kip- per merely winked disarmingly in his usual way, and stated that, expense account or no expense account, he refused to sneak under the subway turnstiles. And 1952 had its share of problems, too. Chairman Craighead ' s vas undoubtedly keeping away from the Rule of Rust which stated that all Bainier Chairmen had to be married men. John Furth ' s was how to be nice to people in order to sell them ads, and then to be tough with them when they vere overdue with payments. And the M.E. ' s particular probleins were meeting deadlines and picking up priceless page proofs from the Hoor or waste basket. 1952 was also a cosmopolitan year for the Banner. We had Juan Falla from the banana republics, who served ' ery capably as Pro- duction Manager, Carl McMillan, recent- Iv returned from the Left Bank, T. Dear, world citizen-at-large, and Pete Roll, recipient of next year ' s Yale-Heidelberg scholarship. And 1952 was the year for strengthening old Banner traditions. One of the most • lei ' ent champions of the ancient Ballantine ritual was Old Campus Editor Dick Flender, who enjoyed good scotch as well as old cus- toms. Dick has gone down in Banner history as the first editor of the O.C. to match all freshman biographies next to Mr. Beeman ' s beaming portraits; no small achievement by any means. And sometimes Bart Cohen could be heard to say that he just couldn ' t make that nice old lady who runs a flower shop in Sara- toga Springs pay for her ninety-dollar Going Places ad. The fact that her account was over a year late did, he was forced to admit, war- rant that her name be erased from future approaches. Blake Cheney ' s Eli Book achieve- ment has always remained a mystery to us all, although the Business Department suspected that soiiietliing must have happened to ac- count for the sales resistance of those fresh- men. And 1952 was the year of graphs. You can ' t sell advertising if you don ' t know where you stand, was the watchword of John Gray and the Advertising Department, exhorting his troops on to bigger and better graphs. In fact, the graph situation became so involved that any business member who was color blind was forced to transfer to the Editorial Board. Equally efficient in the new business office was Paul Oshirak, who was occasionallv seen bobbing up for air horn a sea of circula- tion reports. He did manage to sell enough yearbooks, although he had to rely on Big Brother ' s plant of Green Cups and steaks at Mory ' s for top salesmen. And Bob Anthony could be heard to plead with the Miniature Tree Growers ' Association that their prestige on the campus warranted at least a two page spread in the Activities section. And 1952 was the year of the after-hours club, which was significantly formed around deadline time. Dick Devine, Bill f oblitzelle, Stan Brainerd, Ed Hubbard, Ted Fuger, Larry Bouton, and Bob Fox all seemed to be setting endurance records of as late as three and four o ' clock A.M. But in spite of the late hours, the involved meetings, and the dirty coke bottles, most of the Banner members looked on their year- book careers as worth much more than mere ties, cigaret boxes, and amount of alcohol consumed at the parties. It meant more than the gaining of experience, both editorially and businesswise, although that was im- portant, too. It was the gaining of lasting friendships, the kind that come only when you have stayed up till dawn with a person, working on a mutual project, and the re- sultant pride that comes with doing a job well done.

It seemed to affect many of the members with an in- expHcable energy— that made ludicrous those careFullv-laid plans tor retrenchment. Evidence ot the constant tenor or change, expansion, and revision that marked ' YBC was the wide range of new programs that greeted the airways during the year. Forums such as The United States on Trial with Professors Peyre, Wolfers, and Wiess, and the discussion of the newly formed Under- graduate Activities Committee by President Griswold and several undergraduate repre- ofif Ri lEELING under the tension of war news, harassed by ominous notices from the Dean ' s office, and exploding in mob demonstration when social life was threatened, Yale turned in ever-increasing numbers to its radios for relaxation and entertainment. WYBC mus- tered its staff of thousands to meet the cr ' ing need for radio slanted to the tastes of dilet- tante or buckskin, and entered its eleventh year on the campus, bursting with vigor and vermouth. With Uncle Sam ' s favorite na- tional lottery breathing down the neck of college men, and electronic equipment van- ishing from the market, retrenchment be- came the byword, more honored than adhered to. In spite of intentions of merely strength- ening the organization for possible lean years rather than expanding operations further, Chairman Phil Colcord ' s crew picked up the mantle of dynamic expansion left by the 1951 board and continued to make WYBC the fastest growing and largest orga nization on the campus. Hoards of heelers crowded the studios in eager chaos, soothed and mothered under the protecting wing of Vice-Chairman Charlie Milliken, and were to be found in- cessantly waxing, painting, washing, and dusting the tired old floors and walls of Hen- drie Hall. If one word can characterize an organization, then WYBC can be summed up in the term enthusiasm. Perhaps electricity is a dangerous force that gets into the veins Heard on ' ets I. sentatives; high quality intellectual programs like that of The Lonesome Gal ; coverage of speeches of national importance by President Truman, General MacArthur, and Senator Taft; on the spot coverage of the wild New Haven mayoralty election; live music by Yale singing groups, jazz bands, and piano artists; press interviews of visiting luminaries such as Dewev Short of Missouri and Rep- resentative Jacob Javits; documentary broad- casts in the Ed Murrow tradition; coverage of many university assemblages including the 250th Anniversary Celebration held in Wool- sev Hall amid pomp and sonorous grandeur; 1 these were but a few ot the special or un- precedented programs prepared by Dave Rob- inson ' s Program Department. Aided by his assistant Sandy Honeystein, Robby waged an unceasing war on behalf of increased pro- fessionalism in broadcast quality, for which the battle cry was that oft-uttered phrase which struck terror to the hearts of the faith- ful: Shape up. One of the more significant innovations of the year was the decision to expand broad- cast hours to 18 hours per day, using Muzak service to fill the mornings and early after- noons with quiet, instrumental music for the studious. A more tangible contribution to the station was made by a few devoted mem- bers and heelers, under the leadership of Spray Gun Robinson, who gave up their spring vacation to paint the studios, covering up the bilious green that had offended since Monk Holtz ' s regime. Although the harassed stereotype of the ulcerous executive, Chairman Colcord, could be found at any hour of the day or night writing important letters to Winston Church- ill and Bernie Baruch, the man who really held the keys to VVYBC ' s new era of success was that expert safe cracker, Howie Scrooge Hetzler, chief guardian of the exchequer. With his inkstained fingers he kept a firm grip on the world-wide advertising accounts, so nobly solicited and serviced by Sandy Liebschutz, Joe Stephens, Charlie Morss, et al. At the same time, the Ivy Network busi- ness office, under Dan Sobol, Dave Pickhardt, and Jim Spence, broke into the big time with Ford and Philip Morris accounts to smooth a few wrinkles from Hov ' ie ' s furrowed brow. Down in the catacombs, the big news of the year was the retirement of old Haywire Hessie after a long and honored career, and the triumphal installation of the new, gold- Back Row—Mello, Hansen, Kellogg, Benzoni, Pickhardt, McKelry, Pisfe, Caiman; Fifth Row— Gilder, Flanagin, Thomas.

Jim Noyes, Pete Dunckel, and company carried on a spasmodic fight against the bug-a-boos of poor reception, standing waves, and succeeded in improv- ing our transmission facihties considerably, particularly to the Law School and Graduate School. Jim and Robby were so pleased with the new high fidelity microphone that they took turns sleeping with it under their pillows at night. Al Rubitschek and Dan Shepard lav awake nights, even without mikes tor pillows, think- ing up new gimmicks for publicizing the station, its programs, and its heeling com- petitions—posters, Grubby Guy contests, trapeze artists — anything, so long as it spelled W-Y-B-C. Howie Galper ' s audience research division, shepherded by Carl Loucks, con- ducted a comprehensive poll to determine listeners ' tastes in radio entertainment, in ad dition to manv other Hooper Rating type polls. But it was in the widespread tentacles ol the Program Department empire that the most audible work originated. Sportscasters Bob Bush, Hank Ruth, Pete Wilkinson. Mickey Roth, and old reliable Howie Eaton, Scholar of the 7th year, brought Yale sports into the living rooms of obese or poverty- stricken Elis. Bob Sheperdson ' s record divi- sion, starring honor-alumni Jim MacDonald and Neil Flan agin, spawned multitudes of Shrimp Boats and were still unsuccessful in attempting to bury poor old Collegiate. Phil Costello adorned the walls with hilarious caricatures of the hierarchy, and kept the Continuity Division in mortal fear with his bold pronouncements: Uncle J. P. is Watch- ing You! Frank Nicoll dispatched his news- hounds to the four corners of the globe in search of stories for the much-maligned, but often highly efficient, College News. And trie (.s siiuikiiio it I ' hilij ' Miiiiis Ace sportscaster in moment of repose a news heeler was to be seen day and night, peering expectantly at the flow of verbiage clicking slowly off the U.P. teletype machine. As may be supposed, all was not serious. Mother Milliken took time out from his brood of heelers now and then to throw merriment for the faithful, memorable among which was the birthday party in honor of VVYBC ' s tenth anniversary, and the annual trek to North- ampton for broadcasting over WCSR at radio-conscious Smith. Don Lebold ' s unsung heroes of the mag- netic tape made the Recording Division the work-horse of the station, and captured many memorable moments— such as victory state- ments from both Dick Lee and Mayor Celen- tano— on a fragile band of plastic. The year was one of continued growth and improvement of broadcast standards. WYBC ' s retiring Board could feci justly proud of their success in fulfilling a role of service to the Yale campus.

This all worked for a highly efficient and improved News, as it symbolized all sorts ot alert journalism and liberal sleuthing upstairs and a continued conser ' atism downstairs which brought in enough extra lucre to effect monumental physical improvements. Dick White was the black Golden Boy, though his somber sobriety was limited to business hours. He amputated the artful, but profitless, hux almost as fast as the preceding board had conceived it. OCD supplements became strictly loot, witness the Puerto Rico section and the Co-op Star, but creativity again loomed its head in the mo ney-making 250th Anniversary ' issue. All was not so commercial, however. The new buzzer system eased many o ' erworked lungs and legs, while the copy slot made the heelers ' room look more professional and sep- arated the men from the boys. Dick had many a fight with John Steadman about additional Piien ne reiissit coiunie le sncces impro ' ements, and he gave in to the extent that a refrigerator and Ivy League teletype were on the way when our board retired. In the business office it- self, redecoration e ' olved which made the place look more like a morgue than ever, though this last triumph was a bit daunted when, after the change-of-boards banquet, Tony Astrachan, who had left a loaf of bread on Miss Gorman ' s desk, charged through a new plate glass partition. Art Keeley put in many courageous hours on national advertising, Steve Stulman reached new heights in c irculation, and Francis Donahue continued to keep local busi- ness men in tow. Miss Gorman still found need for a botde of red ink, while Miss Cher- non, receptionist-secretary-telephone operator, was as hassled as e ' er. From this tangle of fi- nance an unprecedented spir- it of humanitarianism arose, so that at Steadman ' s last bitch session there was nary a complaint about the busi- ness department. John was most at home in the marketplace of ideas, and he loudly censured those who only patronized the red herring stall: Today ' s Amer- icans are like a bull in a ring — wa e a red flag in front of them and they blindly lower their heads and charge. He w as heartsick and perplexed when the issue of the FBI and loyalty checks threatened to interfere with the un- Presii for 111 on SI jm perF apos andb issues it all I manv arria ending search for new truths. When a Brown University reporter was discipHned by a dean for fundamental intellectual dishon- esty in writing a satirical article against a college rule, John glowed with white-hot anger at the savage stupiditv of bullheaded men . . . who irresponsibly meata.xe the lives of undergraduates. On the university scene, Steadman said that President Griswold flubbed his golden chance ' at the Derby Day protest rally and that Yale ' s Dramat frankly is going profes- sional, and it ' s an inexcusable state of affairs. Nationally, he commended President Truman for the firing of General MacArthur, and pleaded for Hawaiian statehood. Within the Neirs, John organized classes for heelers and tested them and copy editors on style rules. He almost brought athletic glory to the OCD when he and partner Dip- per Harrison were scheduled to water-ski. As vice chairman, Reid Buckley was not in a position to express his soul to the world, and he had to be content with attacking such issues as the parking ticket menace. He ended it all in June by getting married and with him disappeared another artistic venture that failed: the Culture Page. In the fall, a Brook- lyn boy with a large beard acquired during many weeks in German third-class railway carriages became VC. Tony ' s Bread and Circuses had many an aristocrat violently destroying Cafe de la Paix swizzle sticks.

The repercussions ot his Town and Frown piece kept the campus police busy guarding the News from the vendetta of the Mafia. Our fair-haired boy was Shew Hagerty. He injected some much-needed blond journalism into the traditionally staid News. Rick Adams and photogs Andersen, Kaufman, and Brown- ing added extra verve.

(Witch leaps over the footlights in an effort to escape, an action which wasn ' t in the script, but which nevertheless makes for yuks all around. Dwarfs join in the chase, leaving Snow White alone onstage.) SNOW WHITE: This is strychnine for the birds. Poisonally, cyanide like to go, too, but ptomaine cooks spoil the broth. (Cy is a stagehand, who has just wandered on the stage from the wings for the purpose of cleaning up the mess left by the dwarfs. This takes a good fifteen minutes, during which time the theatre manager comes out again, and entertains the audience with a juggling act. He stinks at this, however, and is soon pelted off the stage. The day is saved when the dwarfs suddenly appear from back- stage, having successfully routed the witch.) DOC: The prince is coming!

Not to be outdone, Harry Truman and Prince Charming sit down at the Steinway and waltz through the Beard Barrel Polka and Shave it, Pretty Baby, For Me in two part harmony.) PRINCE CHARMING: Enough of these histrionics; let ' s you and me slip away to some secluded spot and make time, honey lamb. SNOW WHITE: I feel rather sheepish about all this, but if ewe really want to, I wool marry you. DOPEY: What a yarn. (At this point, the prompter bursts out laughing, and has to be led from the room. Her place is taken by Harry Truman, who doesn ' t have any more lines to say anyway. To make things still more confused, the dwarfs run down into the audience and take seats in the front row, so they can watch the prince ' s charming technique with Snow White.) PRINCE CHARMING: Haste, my love, and we ' ll make beautiful music together. SNOW WHITE: This is not the time to be so damn dramatic! I ' ll just sav ves and leave the rest all to you.

Wood Yale Dramatic Association n the occasion of Yale ' s 250th anniversary, with the spectac- ular musical production ot The Birds concluding its 1951-1952 season, the Yale Dramat will ha ' e fitty-two years oF almost con- tinuous operation to its credit. To sav that these years have passed with- out mishap would be the understatement of the week. Certainly no one has forgotten Kiss The Boys Goodbye, and particularly la Stritch, who appears seductively, for old times ' sake, in the upper corner of this page. L ' affaire Kiss created one of the Dramat ' s few scandals in the form of editorials and letters to the News, the brunt of which tedious pontifi- cations was that the Dramat had sold its aesthetic birthright for a mess of Broadwav talent. Those who saw the show, however, discovered that the Broadway representative was hardly a mess and that the Yale con- tingent more than held its own. Two per- formances in New York followed, on a stage, to put it decorously, undistinguished bv ample dressing-room or production facilities. And then, just to show the Yale Com- munity that the Dramat didn ' t intend to make a habit of importing its talent, it pro- duced Thornton W ' ilder ' s TJie Skin Of Our Teeth on College weekend, and repeated it Sheridan Whiteside (Charles Crowley) begins his annua] Christmas broadcast just after the bedlam, caused by escaped penguins and other assorted catastrophes, has died aivay, and the second act curtain is about to descend. lor Commencement. It was, in words of the New Haven Register, Superbly done, due, among other things, to the complete brass band that came marching down the aisle in the second act, and to the ingenious settings which kept the crew in constant motion and the cast in constant fear of falling flats. The Man Who Came to Dinner, the first play to be produced in the fall, posed prob- lems of another sort. Among the props re- quired for this satire on the idiosyncracies of the late Alexander Woollcott are a decorated Christmas tree, a crate of penguins and an Egyptian mummy case. Chuck Crowley was delightfully acid in the role Dramat alumnus Monty Wooley made famous on Broadway, and John Sweeney provided a handsome set- ting with a slight list to starboard. Following closely on the heels of the one- acts was Giraudou.x ' s Amphitryon 38, pro- duced in modern dress with excitingly styl- ized settings. The famous comedv about the night-life of the father of the gods was of- fered in the S. N. Behrman translation used by the Lunts in the original production, and Ray Alexander ' s silky interpretation of the role of Jupiter was quite in keeping with the bedroom atmosphere of the play. Then of course, there was The Birds, an Aristophanes farce brought to life by the com- bined efforts of the Dramat and the Glee Club— united for the first time since 1942— with original music composed by Fenno Heath and performed as the concluding pro- duction of a successful year.

Now that the liberals were in power (Definition ot a liberal: an engineer who once sat in on a B.A. lecture tor his room- mate) sweeping changes were made. The new board brought in a new philosophy, new features such as Society Loudspeaker and the Dean ' s Page, a new format, and ban- ishment for any member caught in a lab. There is a rumor, however, that some of the sophomores are secretly majoring in physics by correspondence course. Leading off for the new team was Lock Rinehart as Chairman and ehicl worrier.

The Yale Literary ' Magazine revived some ancient aspects of herself and instituted some new ones. In an effort to introduce some con- tact with contemporary writing while remain- ing an undergraduate magazine, interviews with prominent authors and critics were pub- lished throughout the year. Editorials, book reviews, and essays again appeared as the scope of the magazine was widened, and re- productions of the University Art Gallery exhibitions brightened the pages during the fall months.

Norton C. Rowley E. Stone S. Yonce A change also occurred in the physical location of the magazine, as the staff moved into a new and larger office. The editors came to rely more upon the creative work of writers not on the staff, as the assignments for re- views and profiles mounted. A short-story con- test was held for members of the English 77 course in the early part of 1951, supplement- ing the annual Bergen Prize for the best short- story. The Lit had an active and constructive year, as was attested to by one of the many faculty reviewers, who called it not a literary magazine, but a magazine for literate people.

The Yale Political Union I X HE year 1951-1952, the seventeenth year in the history ot the Yale Political Union, saw its continued progress in promoting po- litical discussion and training, as well as the inauguration oF significant improvements and new activities. Heading the Union during the 1951 spring term were Richard Bjork, president; Bruce Marshall, vice-president; Henry Scherer, sec- retary; Dudley Lunt, treasurer; and Robert Winters, second vice-president. Partv Chair- men included Frank JcdHcka, leading the Bull Moose; Ed Meese, oF the Conservative Party; Murry Brochin, Liberal Partv; and Ben Walter, Labor Party. Opening the term ' s schedule ol ' meetings was a heated debate between two candidates tor the British Parliament. Laborite Colin Jackson opposed Conservative R. L. Lowndes when the latter proposed a vote oF no-con- fidence in the British Labor Government. Foreign affairs and military policy also re- ceived a great deal of consideration as Con- gressman Jacob K. Javits spoke against Her- bert Hoover ' s proposals for American foreign policy. Congressman Dewey Short spoke on universal military training. Just after Gen- eral MacArthur ' s removal from his Far East- ern Command, Senator Owen Brewster ad- dressed the LInion and advocated the Gen- eral ' s proposals for caiTving the Korean war situation to the Chinese mainland. The annual banquet was held in May, with Major General Miles Reber, of the Armv General Staff Corps, speaking on the Korean war situation and militar ' legislation in Congress. At the close ot the spring term, new offi- cers were elected for the fall. Ed Meese was selected to be president of the Union. Other officers were Henry Scherer, ' ice-president; Robert Cowell, secretary; Robert Winters, treasurer; and Dudley Lunt, second vice- president. Leading the four parties of the Union were Dixon Stanton, chairman of the Bull Moose Party; William Chasteen, Con- servatives; Arthur Olick, Liberal; and Tim Taylor and Frank Schvvelb, co-chairmen of the Labor Party. The outstanding event of the fall term was the Union ' s sponsorship of its first annual Intercollegiate Forum on World Affairs. Over two-hundred and fifty representatives from leading eastern colleges and unixersities participated in this weekend affair v ' hich in- cluded a keynote address by President fiarold Taylor of Sarah Lawrence College, several discussion meetings led by top Yale profes- sors, and a vei-y successful dance on Saturday evening. The Forum concluded on Sunday with a debate between former Union mem- bers Norman Roy Grutman and L. Brent Bozell on whether the Democratic Adminis- tration should be retained in office. Other highlights of the term included the organizational meeting address by Charles Lichenstein, of the political science depart- ment, and talks by Law School Professor Fowler Harper, vigorously upholding civil rights, and Denis Greenhill, First Secretary of the British Embassy, yho spoke on the un- stable situation in the Middle East. At two later meetings David N. Rowe, professor of political science, stressed the menace of com- munists in government, while Dr. John M. Swomley, director of the National Council against Conscription, spoke against universal military training. Also during the fall a joint meeting was held with Vassar Political Association. In a battle of the sexes, the Yale men argued that formal education is a waste of time for the average American girl; how- ever, they evidently couldn ' t convince them- selves on this idea, as the outnumbered girls won the debate by a large margin. At the conclusion of the fall semester. Sec- retary of State Dean Acheson was selected to receive the 1951 Union Award for dis- tinguished public service. Jack Schmetterer, chairman of the Intercollegiate Forum, re- ceived an award as the most valuable member of the LInion during the term, in recognition of his outstanding work in making the Forum a success.

The Church of Christ in Yale Undergraduate Deacons 1 HE service of Protestant Christian wor- ship and spiritual guidance is offered and maintained by the Church of Christ in Yale University. The University Church is Con- gregational in its policv while non-denomina- tional in its membership, offering a Student Membership which does not impair prior connections with a home church. The Rev. Sidney Lovett, Chaplain of the University, and the Rev. Burton A. MacLean, Associate Chaplain, are the ministers who direct and lead the Church and its activities. Mr. Lovett and Mr. MacLean are assisted in this task by a board of Faculty Deacons and a board of Undergraduate Deacons. The Undergraduate Deacons are elected in the spring of their junior year, and serve the Universitv for their entire senior vear. The Student Deacons are primarily con- cerned with the Church and its relationship to the students, and the most recognized of their duties is to officiate as ushers on Sunday mornings throughout the school year. The Deacons also assist in the leading of the daily Noonday Ser ' ice at Dwight Hall Chapel and during the Christian Mission each year assist the Mission Committee. With Dwight Hall carrying on the work element the Deacons represent the worship element of the Chris- tian life. i University Choir W ITH the auditions in Woolsey Hall, re- hearsals in Hendrie Hall, and services in Sprague Hall, the University Choir began its work this year. The delay in completing the new Holtkamp pipe organ in the chapel necessitated these arrangements. A sturdy army field organ did its wheezy best until Sunday, October 14, when the new organ was formally dedicated in a special service. Fea- tures in the design of the new instrument have added immeasurably to the possibilities for more effective use of the organ with the choir. The choir sang two anthems at each Sun- day morning service during the school year, a program requiring the preparation of over fifty different choral works. Members of the choir joined with the Glee Club in singing at the official 250th anniversary convocation at Woolsey Hall, October 19. On Sunday, December 9, the choir sang at the regular morning service at Battell Chapel, rushed to a special car attached to the 12:50 for New York, and arrived in time to rehearse for its large part (six anthems) in the special Yale Alumni Vesper Service held in St. Bartholomew ' s Church. Credit for solv- ing these logistical problems goes to the choir monitor-turned-manager, Grant Home, 1952. Professor Luther Noss continued as di- rector and organist. At the daily chapel serv- ices held in Dwight Chapel, the organ and choral music was under the direction of Pro- fessor H. Frank Bozyan. i mn Third Row— Finney, Dole, Enzer, Cniikshank, Evans, Fortua, joniu.

X HERE are as many ways to characterize Dwight Hall as there are people trying to characterize it, hut this itself reveals some- thing about its nature: Dwight Hall is a very personal organization; it is the sum total of all those who are concerned and participating in its thought and action. It is yet more than this, tor without imposing any pattern on its members it results in a sense of community which at its best is sorrowfully rare in mocl- crn lile. This unity admittedly is weak and approximate, but it nevertheless exists, hir it takes individuals as they are, requiring no affectation or self-seeking competition, and results in increasingly honest communication and fellowshiji among indi iduals with a com- mon concern. Ihis, ol course, is not the goal of Dwight I iall, but rather a result ot more inclusive I Fourth Bou ' -MiUihm, Rohn:. ,u. I :i, . W uhlc. Iluudlo. Mien. I inul i.-u iinn.

Its actual raison d ' etre grows out of the conviction that secular so- cietv lacks three factors necessary in the life of the whole man and in his relation to his world. The first lack is of commitment, how- ever feeble or half-hearted, to a transcendent and loving God, as creator, redeemer, and sus- tainer. Second is serious application of the mind to the matters of faith and spirit. Third- Iv and in the light of the former two, stands dedication of effort and concern to the needs of others. Admittedlv these ends are never perfectlv realized, but Dvvight Hall is a community of individuals who, from varying directions, and to varying degrees, are on the wav to fuller realization of these dimensions of worship, studv, and ser ' ice.

The Hillel Foundation JL I IE Yale University Hillel Foundation is one ot over 180 such groups throughout the United States, Canada, the United Kingdom, and Israel, sponsored by the B ' nai B ' rith, a national Jewish service organization. Main- taining its offices in Lawrance Hall and di- rected in its endeavors bv Rabbi Joseph H. Gumbincr, the organization is the center of Jewish religious, cultural, social, and educa- tional activities on the campus. Featuring student cantors and guest speak- ers, Sabbath worship was held in the Dwight Hall chapel every Friday evening under the aegis of Rabbi Gumbiner. 1 his was always followed by an Oneg Shabbat good fellow- ship and discussion. The Monday night Forum Series was eminently successful, fea- turing such outstanding speakers as Profes- sors Weiss and Goodenough from our own faculty and Rabbi Alfred Jospe from the na- tional office. In conjunction with Dwight Hall the Foundation brought to the campus the outstanding theologian and philosopher, Martin Buber. This past year saw the advent oi the Hillel Social Action Committee which, under the capable guidance and inspiration of Ed Pin- cus and Norm Hirsh, rapidly assumed a ' ital role in the year ' s program. The Raw ' s Horn, amiably edited b Jack Levin, provided continuity through the year. A further highlight tor the members was the annual Yale-Harvard-Princeton colloquium held in New Haven, rounding out what President Art Olick termed a truly outstand- I The More Club HE More Club, with the Rev. Edwin B. O ' Brien, 1931, as chaplain, ser es as the center of Catholic activity for undergraduates at Yale. Special attention is given to the re- ligious development of Catholic students. There are masses daily and Sunday at the Saint Thomas More chapel on Park Street, with sermons filling the religious needs of University students. To help students make the necessary adjustment of religion to their secular knowledge, the Club holds weekly discussion groups and lectures. In addition, a library of religious books for studv is avaik able to students. Each year a retreat is held under the di- rection of outstanding preachers to recall to student minds the richness of their religious life and to revive their religious zeal and fervor. Throughout the year, social gatherings are arranged, providing opportunity for broadening college friendships. Special at- tention is given to the religious growth of the students through a richer knowledge of Church liturgy. Conference with the indi- vidual students is an important part of the work at More House. In a word, the work of the More Club is to integrate faith with secular knowledge to produce the Christian gentleman. President for 1951-1952 was Michael Jen- kins Cromwell, with Peter Chase, Birnie Elliott, and Felix Tomei as the remaining senior Officers.

Yale Coinmunity Charities Drive 1 Ills year, the undergraduate committee which raises money for Yale (example: the Hope Mission) and other student charities (example: WSSF) changed its name, For the sake of clarity, from the Budget Drive Com- mittee to the Yale Community Charities Drive Committee. The Committee continued to put emphasis on diversification. All the college captains did bang-up jobs, with Davenport ' s Sam Ketcham leading the parade with respect to contributions brought in. The freshman solicitation went exccptionalK ' well under Burt Walker (next year ' s chairman) and the Law School under Grant Esterling led the graduate units. The slogan this year was an honest con- tribution Irom e ' crv member ol the Yale community. Oi course, such an aim can never be completely realized, but the response was indeed most gratifying. The goal of the drive was $35,000, and on the last night this figure was reached. This has enabled Yale to join some 150 American contributors towards the total sum needed for the conception of a great Interna- tional Christian University in Japan. A small portion of the poverty, sickness, and despair of students seeking refuge from lion Curtain Countries has been relieved. At home, the Drive has helped towards the full integration of some displaced persons with the under- graduate body, the maintenance of a home for twenty-two foreign students, and other im- portant social services. Chairman Line Cornell, secretary Dick Childs, the entire Committee— captains, so- licitors, and helpers— and especially the Yale community, deserve a great deal of praise for their efforts in bringing a successhd conclu- sion to this year ' s drive.

However, the record compiled to date, of six victories and but a single defeat, indicates an eminently success- ful season, due to the able tutelage of Pro- fessor RoUin G. Osterweis, director, and Pro- fessor John Chester Adams, director emeritus, with the aid of Donald Rivkin. Thus far, the varsity debate squad of thirtv men has defeated Harvard twice, Princeton once, Wesleyan once, and the University of Connecticut twice; the home-and-home debate with Amherst resulted in one victors ' for each team. Home-and-home debates are planned with Columbia and Brown. The annual tri- angular contest with Har ' ard and Princeton will take place in May. Yale will also enter several national and regional tournaments. The officers of the University Debating Association for 1951-1952 are: president, Jeremy Butler; vice-president, Carl Bradley; member-at-large, Norman Roy Grutman; sec- retary, MvTTon Wiess; and manager, W illiam Chasteen. The Freshman debate squad ol nine men has split two home-and-home debates with the Taft School and the Choate School. The triangular freshman debate with Princeton, and Harvard is scheduled for early May. Many members of the varsity debate squad have participated in the work of both the Political Union and the Intercollege Debate League. The latter is enjoying another successful season, with all ten residential col- leges represented. Varsity debaters Ed vin Meese and William Chasteen served as presi- dents of the Political Union. X HE Yale National Students Association committee is a group of unheralded public servants which tries in certain ways to fill some of the gaps found at Yale with the lack of a student government. A major duty of the committee is to represent Yale at the annual N.S.A. Congress in the summer, where the object is to exchange ideas to better student life on both the local and national levels. Of the 300 member schools Yale is the only one without a student government. As a result, the Yale N.S.A. committee works with other student leaders in furthering intercollegiate, academic, public service, and travel programs. Phil Costello led this fall ' s committee, and Pete Lousberg took over the reins of chair- man after mid-years. Many Yale men have George Bacon and his N.S.A. car pool to thank for arranging rides in time of stress. A variety of projects kept other members busv selling discount cards, running student opin- ion polls, and attending regional meetings at other New England colleges. In the spring a travel information center was set up to help students plan foreign trips. Tours were run for the benefit of visitors from abroad. A highlight of the year was the national Congress, held last summer at the University of Minnesota. Yale sent five delegates to this conclave, where these men had opportunity, by rubbing shoulders with 500 student lead- ers from other colleges, to broaden their out- look of student life in America. By electing active delegates, the committee hoped to make Yale a leader in national student opinion. The National Student Association Second Row—Bacoii, Bryan, Bjonisou.

The Chairman of the Board of Assign- ments is aware of the arrival of all incoming Freshman, Varsity, and J. squads. He as- signs two Key members to each squad, and it is their duty to feed and quarter this team as long as it remains at Yale. They must make sure that these men do not return to their colleges or prep schools with a black memory of Yale hospitality. The members of the Yale Key are elected each year. The junior class in each residential college selects two representatives, and each fraternity, publication, or other e.xtra-curricu- lar activity elects one member From the junior class. However, as is the case with most activities on campus, all is not work with the Yale Key. The Key is generously provided with operat- ing funds, and the members Feel that a certain amount oF recreational activity is essential For its successFul operation. Several beer parties and at least two banquets are indispensable, and they, as the story goes, serve both to in- duce greater unity among members and to reward the efforts oF their work. There is much hope that the Yale Key not only can continue to provide For incoming teams, but also that it will expand to include such services as the greeting oF prep school students who are considering enrollment at Yale. Key members would be able to meet such prospects, show them the University, and answer any questions that they might have as to lite at Yale. But although the Key at present is somewhat limited in activity, it does, nevertheless, perForm an indispensable service to Further a successFul athletic program at Yale.

Yale Glee Club X HIS year ' s sixty-seven carefully culled members of Yale ' s singing community ex- perienced an exceedingly unique season. As the Yale Glee Club went through the fall term under the world-renowned direction of Marshall Bartholomew, who will be back next year for his thirty-first season, and then under- took an ambitious program for the spring term in the capable hands of Associate Director Fenno Health, members realized how fortu- nate they were to be forming a bond w ith the hundreds of others who had sung under Barty, and to be members of Fenno ' s first Yale Glee Club. The season started out with much pomp and color when the Club sang for the assem- bled dignitaries at Yale ' s 250th Anniversary Convocation. Subsequent concerts in East Haven, Stamford, and Montclair combined with the regular Harvard and Princeton joint concerts to round out their fall schedule. At the Harvard concert Barty was awarded the Harvard Glee Club Shingle which made him an honorary member. A Christmas trip which included Providence, Boston, Brooklvn, the Kate Smith Television Show, Philadelphia. Washington, Baltimore, and Pittsburgh high- lighted the first half of the year. Barty went off to Mexico on his sabbatical and Fenno raised his arms in direction as the Club broadcast on the Monsanto Chemical program. Soon came the ever-enjoyable song- fcst at Chi Psi, then Port Chester, and a per- formance at Junior Prom time. All this was done while pointing to the Carnegie Hall ap- pearance in March, where the Glee Club sang with the Schola Cantorum and the Philhar- monic.

The Commencement Con- cert and a repeat performance of The Birds closed out a year inspiring in its breadth. As the president of the Club remarked, We now leave Yale singing with great pride in its past and empirical confidence in its future. APOLLO GLEE CLUB This year ' s seventy chosen men in the Apollo Glee Club maintained in full force the high calibre of singing set in years past by Fenno Heath, under the talented direction of Robert Brawley. During the fall term the club sang informally at Davenport, Timothy Dwight, and Silliman Colleges. A full second- term schedule opened with a special service in Battell Chapel, followed shortly by a per- formance in Woolsey Hall on Alumni Day. Home concerts during the spring term in- cluded a joint concert with Vassar and the Glee Club Jamboree. The club took the road to sing concerts with Briarcliff, Sarah Law- rence, and Smith, and performances at New- town, Oranee, and Kent School. FRESHMAN GLEE CLUB Mr. Arthur L. Frantz has in this year, his third as director, widened the scope and in- creased the concert schedule of the Freshman Glee Club. His sixty-eight top freshmen sing- ers sang at the Alumni Day ceremonies, at the Freshman Prom, and in the Glee Club Jamboree. Their independent appearances were at the Dwight School in Englewood, N.

The Band is well known for its spirited music and formations, typified by the march- ing Eli, now seen not only at football games, but ahu as the centerpiece of the introduction to seyeral teleyision sportcasts. Sections of the Band also provided musical interludes at Yale ' s basketball and hockey games, and of course no Yale swimming carniyal would be complete without the Band. Each year the Band ' s concert schedule ex- pands and this year certainly was no excep- tion, seeing the Band do performances at the Choate School, at Bridgeport for the Yale Alumni Association, at Woolsey Hall, and at the Springfield Municipal Auditorium, as well as spring twilight concerts on the Cross- campus walk. In the fall the Band had as a ouest con- ductor Stanleigh P. Friedman, 1905, vyho led the Band through several of his own numbers. Mr. Friedman composed Down The Field, ' Glory For Yale, and other Yale tunes. David Kraehenbuhl and Ronald Stein composed pieces especially for the Yale Band this year, too, further adding to the group ' s distinctions. Also worthy of note was Symphony Maga- zine ' s choice of the Yale Band as the first to be cited in its series of outstanding college bands throughout the country. Band members expressed their opinion that Keith Wilson ' s great abilities as a leader have been perhaps the largest factor in the envious position it enjoys today. Mr. Wilson was as- sisted by the Band officers: Robert Lee, Presi- dent; George Bacon, Business Manager; and Harold Knight, Publicity Manager. These men, all with the Band for four years, spent much time and energy to insure the Band ' s continued success. Sccmul l (nv— Pidliiiaii Potter, Then Weild, Pie u Ui Mouliuu.

With Mory ' s serving as the base of operations, the 43rd edition of the Whiffs has ranged far and wide, from the windy steppes of Northampton to the golden sands of Bermuda. The 1952 Whiffs have performed at vari- ous popular social affairs at Yale as well as mollifying groups of alumni irate over the los- ing football season. Travelling with the Glee Club on its Christmas junket, they toured the major eastern cities. Then came the in- dispensable rest cure in Bermuda, followed bv customary excursions to satisfv eager hordes of girls at Poughkeepsie and other similar areas. They also lent an invaluable touch of savoir-faire to several fortunate radio and television programs. The Whiffenpoofs of 1952 have achieved in grand style the traditional merry blend of good fellowship, Green Cups, and fine song. Society of Orpheus and Bacchus X HE Society of Orpheus and Bacchus is a representative body of envoys from the Olvmpian Gods sent down to amend their faihng heritage. In activities over a dozen years, the O ' s and B ' s have done much toward the promotion of the will of these Gods, per- forming libation and song all o ' er the country as well as the Caribbean, and reaching the mortals through TV and radio as well as in person . The 1952 group has done its best to limit its activity to Yale, girls ' colleges, promenades and the like, limiting its alumni and business men ' s dinner performances. Aside from its usual strenuous schedule in the realm of Orpheus, the O ' s and B ' s have participated in extensive Bacchanalia, and are now meet- ing every Mondav evening for dinner in the intimate cocktail lounge of Howard Johnson ' s cellar. They plan to vovage to the Bahamas over Easter vacation, as well as record an al- bum of their latest song arrangements. But the group has not been c.xclusivelv social or, for that matter, social K- exclusive. They have sung tor a number of church and charity organizations, and in April they sang for the Amputees Alliance at the Waldorf. The O ' s and B ' s have extended their stvle of singing beyond their famous full-voiced classics such as Frankie and Johnnie and Shadrach. Thev have now shown their er- satility by adding spirituals, grand opera, and modern to their arrangements, with Skv Hamilton providing expert musical direction. Front Row— Douglass, Kenney, Gifford, Hotchkiss, Hcwiilton, Breed, Wehh, Coley, Rareuscroft, Mentmi. 1 The Spizzwinks (?) AjAST June Sam, John, Dave, and Bill cer- tainly knew what the question mark after SpizzwinksC?) meant, but in the fall, with the arrival of Hank, Earl, Jim, and Ted, thev realized that they had regained that all-impor- tant element— a blend. While trying to maintain many of the old Heath, Gard, and Wolff arrangements, this year ' s Winks went to great lengths to dig up long-shot numbers like Benny ' s From Heaven, and received with open arms the great new arrangements of songs such as Crazy Rhythm. You Go To My Head, and Sometimes I ' m Happy which their own talented John Tratt- ner turned out. Fortunate to find a real blend, the group did the obvious thing and laid great stress on ensemble work this year. Of course, this did not mean that the mellow tones of Hank and Ted were not given proper ' ehicles for display nor that Rockbottom Rhangos was pushed into a corner to sing S ' Wonderfid by himself! The usual round ot Iraternitics on the foot- ball weekends was followed by the octet con- cert at Smith and a performance at the Ball ending Vassar ' s Junior Week. Sallies to the Pine Orchard Club and the Wellesley Carou- sel Weekend, plus prom spots at Smith, Hol- yoke, and Albertus Magnus pro ' ided many fine audiences which were attuned to the seven-part chords. But perhaps the most mem- orable evening of a ll was a post-e. am noc- turnal visit to Conn. College during which dorms were serenaded and the group topped off the evening with a performance at the Windmill. We who must graduate salute you and trust that you 11 find strength to sing.

Kimball, Blake, and Potter to the W ' hiffenpoot ' s, the 1951-52 Baker ' s Dozen found new talents in Bill Miner, Dave Ellis, and Ned Blake. With Pete Westermann as musical director and Bill Erhart as head Doughnut, the group ex- perimented with new musical styles in this transitional year. The Dozen had to leave its familiar Herbie Payson arrangements to be heard only in their 1949 album, and start afresh with the talents of Dick Peaslee and Westermann. It was a pleasant shock to run the gamut from Westermann ' s easy melodic style to Peaslee ' s frantic outcropping of Hin- demithian music. While the former produced such favorites as Isn ' t That Jiist Like Love and You ' re Mean To Me, the latter astounded those on the rehearsal piano with such inno- vations as Rjtssiaii Roulette and As the Bhick- hird in BirdJand. The Dozen made the usual trips to Pough- keepsie, Northampton, and New London, plus appearances at a variety of Women ' s and Men ' s clubs. The group would like to forget about some of these, such as the Sarah Law- rence fiasco where only eight out of the usual thirteen answered the opening bell. Further horror upon arrival in Bron.wille was created bv the fact that the onlv two basses had se- vere laryngitis. Altogether the year has been hectic, fun, and full of interesting surprises. Good luck must be wished to the group next year, which will include a larse number of new members. I Secojid Row— Pear. Prentiss. Barrett, Morgan; front Row—Milroy, W ' iUiaius, Thomas, Rose. The Augmented Seven X HE Augmented Seven opened the 1952 season on a dismal note, due primarily to the loss of leader Craighill, the group ' s human public address system, as well as manager- chauffeur Bartholomew, and untold camp fol- lowers. Only a mighty effort brought the total number back to eight again, reinforcing the A-7 ' s familiar boast that they are the only true octet on campus. Despite changes in person- nel throughout the fall, the group remained intact and continued to sing the ear-splitting melodies. Anglo-American relations received a defi- nite boost when the A-7 performed for the officers and men of H.M.S. Snipe, a good-will vessel anchored in New Haven harbor, and then escorted the Britishers on a tour of ivied walls and scenic New Haven in a Model-T of undisclosed vintage. An invitation to sing in England over the Christmas holidays was refused, however. In November, the annual trip south to sing for the University Glee Club of New York was consummated, fol- lowed by surprise performances in various metropolitan dens. The manager of the old Knickerbocker Music Hall was impressed and invited the group back for a two day engage- ment in January. The Augmented Seven has managed to sing at various women ' s colleges and has even pierced the roar of fraternity functions and so- called College Jamborees. Though the effect has not always been pleasant, a sense of humor has been preser ' ed at all times, even when confronted with Boy Scouts and New Haven fashion shows. Unless Uncle Sam objects, the A-7 plans to preser ' e its identity— almost in- definitely.

The Alley Cats f Wi ITH a permanent roster of twelve men, last year ' s freshman octet, the Eight Flats, decided that its name had outlived its useful- ness, and, alter months of deliberation, adopted the name oi The Allev Cats. The group is no v appearing at odd times in odd places. Surviving temptations to separate, the group has stuck together to gain ever-increas- ing recognition. The octet offered a varied and unusual repertoire ranging from singing commercials to, in its more sober moments, this year, the sextet irom Lucia. Plagued bv— but nex ' ertheless attracting— Connecticut constables has proved to be one of the Alley Cats ' major diversions. Their fame had evidently not yet reached Massachu- setts law-enforcers, when, one late and cold night in the fall, they were actually refused admittance to the Northampton jail— what some people will do for a trip to Smith! This is not the Alley Cats ' only claim to fame, how- ever, for they have had a full schedule of per- formances, including a trip to the state prison lor women. Between trips to Dean Whiteman ' s con- ferences and apprehensions about possible coming socialistic reforms which could be im- posed on singing groups in general, the Alley Cats got into a considerable number of wom- en ' s colleges, schools, dormitories, reforma- tories, alumni dinners, and beer blasts. Thev also appeared with the Apollo Glee Club, under the direction of Bob Brawley. Plans were made for a trip south during the spring vacat ion. It was a busy year, and Yale ' s youngest singing group is gradually earning for itsell a popular position on the lence under the stars. The Bishop ' s Devils ■ t. !.  . T, I I I I I } mm.

HE Yale Cinema Association experienced the most vigorous time of its lite during the year 1951-1952. Perhaps the outstanding ac- complishment was the technical completion of the organization ' s initial production, a mod- ern adaptation of a Chaucerian tale. Although the actual shooting of The Pardoner ' s Tale was finished during the spring term of 1951, extensi e laboratory work continued through the remainder of the year. Recognizing the fact that many a fine film dies on the cutting room floor, Cinema crews processed and ed- ited through the summer in an endeavour to achie ' e technical uniformity. Their efforts paid off when the picture was favorably re- ceived at the fall preview. With its first pro- duction awaiting release, and a core of vet- eran members available, Yale Cinema is plan- ning a second motion picture which will also utilize home-grown talent. However, the outgrowth into actual pro- duction has not altered the basic presenta- tional function of the association. The policy of bringing some of the world ' s greatest films to the Yale campus has been followed with full emphasis. Under the new chairman, Neil R. Rolde, showings were transplanted to Lin- sley-Chittenden Hall where improved acousti- cal, projectional, and seating accommodations pre ail. The variety of Yale taste— as indicated by a student poll— was served with such fine films as hmn the Terrible, Of Mice and Men, The Freshman, and The Maltese Falcon. The fall term of 1952 also brought about the initiation of a series of non-subscription lectures with cinematic masterpieces.

Ted Rider headed the list of officers, with Norm McGovvin as Vice-President, John Coleman, Secretary, George McKinnev, Treasurer, and Bryant Langmuir, Assistant Treasurer. Early in the fall, the club purchased a Cessna 140 ship to replace the 120 owned the year before, and to supplement the Piper Trainer. Indeed, there was such great use made of the planes, especially bv students practising on the Piper, that both the ships ' engines needed overhauling () cr C ' hristmas vacation. Al Dempsev and cohort Coleman planned to break into the sunny skies of the Southland with the Cessna during spring vacation, mak- ing a leisurely tour of Florida. Spring ' s balmy weather fomented projects for breakfast flights and participation in air meets. Thanks to the patient and everlasting ef- forts of the instructors and mechanics at the field, this enviable season was brought to a close with fledgling pilots receiving their private ratings in the spring.

The California Club ItxOVING into its nineteenth vear of a somewhat harried existence, the Yale Outing Club outlined a broad program of activity. The club ' s cabin, situated in the northwest corner of Connecticut, was fi reproofed and painted, and twentv-six permanent bunks were somehow squeezed into its second floor. Most of the activities were run on a co-ed basis. Girls from the Big Five came on the semi-annual outings held at Yale ' s engineering camp, and smaller trips to the cabin. In the autumn, Yalies travelled to Lake George for canoeing, to the Vassar Intercollegiate square dance, and to Craig Camp, New Hampshire, ) er Thanksgiving. Wintertime saw Outing Club members and their female friends tak- ing advantage of the slopes of nearby Mo- hawk and more remote trails, returning late lor square dancing and those rather chilly nights at the cabin. Amherst ' s trout-fishing derby highlighted the spring program. Under the leadership of President Russ Wehner, Vice-President Jim Mavo, Secretar ' Jerry Moff att, Treasurer Reece Wakeman, and nine others, composing that nebulous inner group called the Blueshirts, the group was afforded a successful and enjovable season.

For the 1952 Cougars, faced with the tremen- dous job ot holding their 169-game winning streak unblemished through twenty-five diffi- cult encounters all over the Atlantic seaboard, seemed woefully shorthanded. Yet when the dust had cleared and their 99th season had drawn to a close, the undefeated skein was unblemished and Cougar fame more wide- spread than ever. The Cougars opened the season before a capacity crowd in Norwalk ' s Crystal Ice Gar- dens against the powerful Harrison Hawks. As the fog rolled out the Cougars rolled in, and, led by two goals bv Blades Barnes, emerged victorious, 7-4. From this initial ic- tory Iceland ' s Globetrotters gathered heart and proceeded to roll through a schedule in- cluding such titans of the ice as the Bedford Bears, Princeton Independents, Harvard Squares, Dartmouth ' s Tuck U ' s, Williams ' arsitv and Amherst ' s varsity, concluding the season in the finest Cougar tradition. Outstanding throughout the grueling cam- paign was the play of forwards Mackey W ' oodhouse, Fearless ' Fiske, Mighty Joe Young, Turk Smith, Spider Swenson, Late Coleman, Peavee Scully, Hank ' Armstrong, Reggie Foster, and Kid Mohl. The blue line was seldom passed thanks to the efforts of Pinkey Roome, Goodell Freeman, Zuzu Gahagan, Black Jack Warner, Hezzie Sprague, Butcher Bar- tram, Pine Cone Connolly, and Dynamite l)onald ()n, ' hile Kid Zero Hudson was in- surpassalile in the nets anti Dick Kazmaier ' Berestord insurpassable in maintaining an abundant supply of socks, jdcLs, an l beer. V? ! ' - •89 IV -rt« A view of the Old Catupiii throiigli Plielps Gateivm As Freshman First . . . A HE day dawned clear and bright on the Old Campus as the dew sparkled on the grass, Fresh and green from a summer which had left it free from molestations of restive feet. The air was comfortably cool as the selling tables set up by dollar-thirsty student organiza- tions awaited the first green whisper passed from billfold to cashbox. Then they came, by spurts and trickles, with one question on their lips: Wliich way is Connecticut Hall? They came in waves, ebbs, and flows as reg- ular as a railroad timetable, a sea of faces washing through Phelps Gate and out into the sunlit quadrangle. All were recognizable to those who tended the booths. Here were the voung man in the green corduroy coat and loud tie and the bewildered midwesterner. Here too was the very shoe young man from Greenwich via St. Paul ' s with the mono- grammed pigskin luggage. And finally, the sharply negative blue serge who wasn ' t buy- ing anything just yet. They came armed with advice from parents, siblings, headmasters, and principals. More was thrust at them in a mass assembly in huge W ' oolsey Hall, advice indistinguishable to most from the welter that already had infil- trated their minds. So most sat and listened with ennui in their faces. A few thought over what was said, and their thoughts went un- noticed. And they adjusted and oriented themselves. They bought books, and they paid salesmen of all sorts. The Freshman Office had given them a year for orientation and they spent it, according to habit, in serious fits of studvino, A toast to the class of J 955 drinking, or goofing. Those with athletic tal- ent worked feverishly to build up that aura of glory peculiar to the top-drawer varsity athlete. For most, it was a carefree year, with few worries, scholastic or social. They care- fully tested their classmates by entrusting them with positions of responsibility: athletic captains and members of the prom committee and various other committees. A few were outstandingly successful, others plugged along but somehow missed gathering kudos, but none were strongly denounced; this was a freshman class whose major characteristic, born of the war, was indifference. The year for most was a noble experiment. In the spa nking new environment which was college life, freshmen, embn, ' onic Yale Men, tested their abilities in fields social, athletic, and literary. Football weekends and The Prom brought flushograms and conquests; in heeling periods and athletics freshmen searched for and found the niche which best fitted them. For most, it was not a time to be dead serious— but there ' as nonetheless the threat of the draft. And so, freshmen wielded hockey sticks, pencils, baseball bats, M-1 rifles, squash rac- quets, and beer cans, for nothing was serious enough to dim their traditional exuberance.

ATHLETICS Football X HE freshman football team of 1955 had a very successful season and was considered to be among the better frosh teams seen around here in quite awhile. It was a well-balanced squad with a strong line and a speedy back- field. In the first game, the Yale team ran over an inept Columbia squad, 39-6. Thc then took on a strong Cornell group and after falling behind went on to win, 13-7. A highly touted Brown team was beaten in a 14-13 thriller. Brown scored on the last play of the game, but the point after touchdown was blocked by the aggressive Yale line. In a driv- ing rain and a field of mud the freshmen had to settle for a 6-6 tie with Dartmouth, al- though the Bullpups were obviously the stronger team. The Princeton game was a heartbreaker in which both teams were very evenly matched and in which the Yales came out on the short end of a 14-7 score. Yale used a sleeper play upon receiving the kickoff and Boh Brink aiiihuslied by Lions in Yale ' s 39-7 iriiiiuph over Cohivihia John Balch momentarily halted by the Bruins in 14-13 thriller over Brown a long pass to be good for a score until a des- perate dive brought the man down from be- hind on the ten-yard line. Yale tumbled away the chance and from there on the game was a seesaw battle with Princeton making better use of the breaks and Yale frittering away some good chances. Yale rebounded from this setback and completely outclassed a big but slow Harvard club, 33-7. Captain Jim Coker stood out throughout the season. Jim Armstrong was also a star at tailback. Connie Corelli, who started the sea- son behind Graham and Mathias at fullback, showed himself to be fine material when they were hurt. He shone in the last three games, scoring several touchdowns in tight places. Among other fine prospects were Henderson at end, Shugart at tackle, Lopez and Walker at halfback, Guzeman at wingback, and Brink at quarter. Coach Gib Holgatc did a fine job of turning out a first class single-wing team, and from their performance it looks as if the varsity will be getting an exceptionally fine lift from the boys of 1955. i 4S ! i CROSS-COUNTRY Second Row— Tyson, Stent, Meeks, Fous, Plant.

Track and Cross -Country X HE yearling cross-countn ' team, paced by unbeaten Bob Stevens, was one ot the best in the history of the sport at Yale. It climaxed an undefeated season, including victories over Brown, Fordham, Harvard, and Princeton, with a triumph in the IC4A meet in New York, the first Eli team in 26 years to accom- plish this feat. Stevens took first place in the event from a field of 73 other competitors in near record time. Others forging the string of victories were John Bogan, Martin Meeks, Dick Conodon, and Eric Seiff. The Winter Track squad has also been un- beaten in three meets thus far this season. After taking Andover 77 2 5-26 3 5 in the opener, the team defeated Harvard 58 ' o- 50 2, and St. John ' s 64-45. Stevens has again been the outstanding individual star, excel- ling in the mile, two-mile, and relay events. Other men showing up well are Hank Thresher, a winner in the 60 yard dash, Nate Durfee in the pole vault, Stew Thompson and Bob Gallaway in the weight events, and Harry Postlewait in the hurdles.

Soccer Wi ITH the exception ot a loss to a good Princeton team, the Yale freshman soccer team finished its season with a creditable record of four wins, including a victory over Harvard, and three losses. Beside the defeat by Princeton, the freshmen lost two other games— both by a margin of one goal. In the first scheduled game, Yale downed a hapless Cross High eleven, 13-0 as Captain Whit MacQuarrie and Dave Tvson scored three goals apiece. The following week in a close, hard-fought game the E.xeter jinx held true, and the Yale Cubs, who had not l)eaii. ' n an E.xeter soccer team in seven vears, w ere tie feated by a 3-2 count. Following a 1-0 icior over Arnold College on a penalty shot b i lac Quarrie, the freshmen were defeated bv Cheshire, 3-2. The injury-ridden Elis behind 3 to 2 at the beginning of the fourth c]uarter pressed hard, but could not overcome the Cheshire lead. In their next contest with the University of Connecticut the Bullpups showed marked improvement, and led by MacQuarrie, Bill Lee, and John Howson, they easily downed the Huskies 5-2. The following week at Princeton, the Tigers started the ball rolling bv scoring five goals in the first period. Yale lought hard during the rest of the game, but could not turn the tide as Princeton copped the ictorv, 9-3. In the final game of the season the Yale Freshmen defeated Har- ard in a thrilling 4-3 o ertime contest. After the Cantabs took an early 2-0 lead, Yale LiKiiied the score on goals by MacQuarrie and 1 lowson. 1 larvard, quickly retaliating, socked through to take the lead once more. Mac- Oiiarrie, rising to the occasion, sent the game into (ixertiiiie w itii a pcn.ilt kick, and Charlie eenis then administered the coup de grace In dri ing one past the Crimson goalie. 1 WINTER SPORTS Hockey X HE 1952 frosh hockey team had a very successful season, marred only by losses to a powertul Burrilh ' ille, Rhode Island High School outfit, and to the Haryard Freshmen at Cambridge. In the opening game ot the season, the Elis defeated a strong Brown team, 5-4. The loss to Burrillyille, 2-4, was followed by five successive victories: over Taft, 3-0; Kent, 12-5; Hamden High, 4-3; the Housa- tonic All-Stars, composed of the best prep school players in Southern New England, 4-2, and the Princeton Freshmen, 8-2. The Frosh succumbed to a potent Crimson se.xtet, 9-3, in the final game of the season, but fin- ished with a very creditable 6 and 2 record. The team was led by Captain Hig Gould at defense. Playing alongside Gould was Bates McKee, both, incidentally, coming from St. Paul ' s School. On the second defense were George Ryder, and John Steggall. The first line had Bill Schrader in the center, flanked by Pete Crisp on the right, and George Brooke on the left. The usual line to follow them on the ice consisted of Pete Meyer at right wing, Steve Gurney at center, and Jim Goodale at left wing. On the third line were Toppy Castle on the right, Bruce Monick on the left, and John Rhinelander in the center. The goalie position was held through- out most of the season bv Rudv Driscoll.

Basketball Wrestling i LAYING in the preliminary slot to the varsity games, the freshman basketball team produced a winning season of eleven wins and six losses. A 68-52 win over the Arnold Col- lege J.V. started the yearlings on the way to victory in their first four games. However, losses to the UConn and Brown freshman teams ended this streak. The cagers then went on to win seven of their remaining eleven games. Led by Captain Kearney Strand at cen- ter, forwards Mark Yellin and Walt Norton and guards Dave Hohson and Walt Schiff, the team showed steadv impro ement over the season. 1 HE freshman wrestling team concluded an undefeated season by overpowering the Har ' ard freshmen, 19-10, at Cambridge. The cub matmen included traditional college rivals and the top New England prep school compe- tition among their victims. Besides Harvard, they humbled E.xeter, 27-3; Brov ' n, 17-9; An- dover, 28-0; Taft, 25-5; Princeton, 14-12; and Columbia, 25-5. Outstanding for this year ' s freshman aggre- gation have been Bob Theriault, Dave Dib- bell, Roland Molinet, Co-Captains Bob White and John Kousi, John Balch, Bob Jackson, and John Phillips.

Squash O TARTING the year on a bright note, the freshman squash team won its first five games, Amherst was first to fall, Yale taking all but one match, 8-1. Four victories over prep schools followed, Exeter providing the second victim, 4-1. Then, in one week, Deerfield, Episcopal Academies, and Choate School fell by scores of 5-4, 5-1 and 5-4, respectivelv. Against Princeton and Harvard, however, the string was broken and the frosh dropped both games. Yale won only three of the nine matches in Tigertown in losing 6-3. In retrospect, the season was a fair one, the team finishino with a 5-2 record. Fencing WlXNIXG the Big Three title for the fif- teenth time in the last twenty years, the fresh- man swordsmen compiled an enviable four win-two loss record. Coach Al Grasson is es- pecially to be congratulated when it is noted that not a single member of the team had taken a foil in hand before this year. Kris Keggi, John Sutton, and Don Vogeler fenced in the foil division. Robert Merrick, Louis Ford, and John Laylin saw the most action with the epee; while Captain Francis Moore, James Plummer, and Jules Cohen starred in the sabre. Each of these men proved himself exceptional in one meet or another. Second Row— Vogeler, Keggi, McKinney, Hoag, Wheeler, Grasson CCoach ; Front Row —Merrick, Laylin, Phininicr, Morre ( Captain , Cohen, Ford, Sutton.

Carl Roessler starting his leg of the relav iwimming O ' NCE again the Yale freshman swimmino team took the top honors in winter sports at Yale. Led by Captain Kerry Donovan, Ken Raine, Tony duPont, and Mac Aldrich, the mermen defeated Harvard and Princeton and extended the freshman record to a list of eighty consecutive victories. Donovan, now the brightest prospect in Yale swimming, turned in outstanding times in both the 50 and 100 yard freestyle events doing them in 22.7 and 50.5, respectively. Under the coaching of Harry Burke the squad gained both knowledge and experience, and undoubtedly will furnish excellent ma- terial tor next year ' s varsity team. « 1 x£ i banner poll THE 1952 BANNER POLL Did vou attend? a.
