of the Martian day; and by the Yale Medical School, which was given a tissue 1 ophilizer, an intricate apparatus designed to prepare human arteries, bones, and skin for indefinite storage. Plans for greater cooperation, and joint building activity, were announced by the Yale Medical School and the Grace-New Haven Hospital. At the ver) ' site of the notorious Ice Cream Riot, another student outburst occurred; once again it involved white, cold material— but this time it was snow. An estimated 1500 Yale, Hillhouse, and Wilbur Cross students barred two downtown blocks to traffic; a policeman suffered a slight injury; a truck driver went to the hospital with nervous prostration after a snowball broke a window in his vehicle; and a Wilbur Cross sophomore had her face washed with snow liy a Yale student during the height of the fray— with the result of one lost tooth. The blame for the spontaneous Elm Street Uprising was laid on pre-e.xam steam. The result of the riot was an unex- pectedly harsh punishment: a three-week so- cial probation on the University. The ten students who were arrested got off with light fines, but the deans read the riot act to the student body, promising penalties up to and including dismissal, in the event of future demonstrations. The Yale Shakespeare Festival centered around plays, exhibits, and lectures, and was featured by a production of The Merry Wives of Windsor over nation-wide television. The play, which was presented on Omnibus, was spoken in what Professor Helge Kokeritz, after intensive study, claimed to be the original Shakespearean pronunciation. A heated con- troversy over allocations ( Should freshmen be allowed to apply for the college of their choice? ) involved the student body (which ' oted overwhelmingly for the present sys- tem ) and the masters ( ' ho split almost evenly on the issue). Yale ' s oldest became her newest, as Con- necticut Hall, home of Nathan Hale and other notables in the Yale past, was rebuilt and re- stored. Wally Kilrea scored three goals as the Eli hockey team tied the Harvard sextet in a thriller, 3-3. One of the more amusing epi- sodes in many years was the case of the Eco- nomics instructor, who— as an illustration of practical stock market operations— invested his own and his students ' money in a Canadian oil company. At last report, the instructor was selling his stock— at a loss. Pictured here is the Economics instructor who gave his class a demonstration in applied stock market theory. 16 -JL
