The Place of Volunteers

On a rainy vacation day in NewHampshire, I finished reading HerHonor Forever Maintain, the detailedaccount by Hunt Bradley '26 of thehistory of the Cornell Alumni Associa-tion. Then I turned to preparing for theannual convention of the AmericanAlumni Council, where I was sched-uled to lead a workshop for alumnieditors the next week.

At some point during my flightfrom the East Coast to the confer-ence, I was struck by the similartrends in the development of these twovery different organizations. Both be-gan as relatively informal associationsof people with a common set of inter-ests and purposes, run by the membersthemselves on a volunteer, part-timebasis.

And just like YMCAs, churches,hospitals, and other volunteer-orientedmutual interest groups, their work hasincreasingly been transferred to a cen-tral staff of paid professionals.

As alumni secretary emeritus of theuniversity and the possessor of an ele-phantine memory for names and facts,Hunt Bradley makes an ideal historianof Cornell's alumni program. His bookmakes clear that the students andformer students themselves took theinitiative for organizing alumni activi-ties.

Former students wanted to keep intouch with their friends from the dayson the Hill and with their university,so they formed class organizations andalumni clubs. And for the same rea-sons, students about to graduate in1899 began publishing the ALUMNINEWS on their own and without anysupport from the university.

During Cornell's first half-century,the university's only involvement inalumni activities was its maintenanceof an address list of- former students.Virtually all other work connectedwith promoting and holding alumni

meetings was handled by volunteers.Occasionally, from their indepen-

dent position, these organized alumnimade demands on the university forchanges in policy and emphasis. But,except when alumni were prepared toraise money to effect their aims (as inraising faculty salaries around the timeof World War I, the building of WorldWar I memorial dorms, or acquiringathletic fields), their voice was notusually heeded by university officials.

But they were heard in 1919 whenthey asked for a university-paid personto help with alumni work. The Associ-ate Alumni (as the organization wasthen known) observed that the workof their elected secretary "if properlydone, requires a large part of his time—more time than one with a businessto look after can possibly afford."

A year later, Foster Coffin '12 be-came the first professional alumniworker at Cornell, his title of alumnirepresentative suggesting a two-wayrepresentation between the universityat Ithaca and her former students. Hismain jobs were to maintain the alumnifiles and to organize what were thenknown as alumni conventions.

Today this one man's effort hasbeen expanded to the point where theuniversity employs more than a hun-dred people and spends more than amillion dollars a year on alumni andrelated activities. (And this expendi-ture brings dollar and non-dollar ben-efits to Cornell far in excess of theadministration's investment.)

In the half-century since the univer-sity began employing a professionalstaff to organize volunteer alumnieffort, alumni have made fewer de-mands on the institution. But theyhave increasingly been subjected to re-quests for funds and other support—always, it should be noted, organizedin some sense by alumni volunteersbut to an increasing extent executed

by the professional staff of the univer-sity.

With Hunt Bradley's history of Cor-nell's alumni program still fresh in mymind, I began looking at the history ofthe American Alumni Council (theA AC) from a new viewpoint. AACwas founded and, initially, run by paidalumni workers from colleges andschools across the country.

In the early years, AAC's membervolunteers recruited new members, ex-panding rapidly so that today severalthousand alumni administrators, fund-raisers, and editors from more than1,600 schools belong to the AAC. Toshare their common experiences, themembers organized conventions, pro-duced periodicals, and wrote books tohelp new alumni workers learn thetrade faster. All these activities werepiled on top of their own jobs at Cor-nell and other institutions.

Volume 76, Number 2

But the job became too demandingfor volunteers to handle alone, and thesixtieth annual convention this pastJuly was mainly organized by the na-tional office, staffed by fourteen em-ployes. In an effort to understandwhat is happening to the organizationin order to decide in what direction itshould head, A AC has engaged in aperiod of intensive self-analysis duringthe past year.

Funded by foundation grants, AAChired a consulting firm to study thewishes and needs of its membership.These consultants noted that AAC,like many other volunteer groups, rep-resents at this stage something of across between two main organizationaltypes—the "affective" and the "instru-mental."

An affective organization, they said,emphasizes sociability, requires highdedication of members, trains by "ap-prenticeship and colleagueship; passeson accumulated wisdom of seniorpractitioners," requires a heavy timeload and involvement in details of ad-ministration by volunteers, "can be-come self perpetuating, inbred, stag-nant, minority dominated, not open tonew members," but "can gain highmorale and deep support; strong hu-man relations."

An instrumental organization, onthe other hand, sets "clear boundarieson staff roles, volunteers involved inmost . . . policy making roles," trainsby "research and development, passeson tested innovations and genericknowledge," "can become bureaucrat-ic, dull, rigid, get too abstract, outof touch with people," but "can han-dle size and complexity, adapted tochange."

The affective form relies on volun-teer effort and friendships to make itgo, the instrumental tends to rely moreon a central staff subject only to broadpolicy control by volunteers.

On the basis of the consultants' rec-ommendations, AAC has decided tomake itself more clearly an "instru-mental" organization, a trend now evi-dent in many other professional asso-ciations. Among academics, for in-stance, there is a move away fromchats at the bar between old croniestowards centralization of training andinformation services coordinated bypaid professional staffs. (The biggerthe membership of a professional soci-ety, the more likely it is to abandonthe "affective" style of operation.)

Of course, alumni associations will,because of their special character, al-ways retain something of the "affec-tive" style. They do not exist to pro-mote efficient exchange of informationor acquisition of expertise, except inci-dentally. First and foremost, Cornellalumni volunteer their time to servethe institution that sheltered them forfour formative years and also to enjoythe fellowship of working with otheralumni, people whose lives have alsobeen touched by their experiences onthe Hill.

But even alumni organizations,though based on personal loyalties anda common store of memories, havemoved in the direction of an "instru-mental" organizational style. Hunchesyield to surveys, and volunteers relymore heavily on central staff.

In the first half century of her exis-tence, Cornell's alumni ran their ownprograms. For several decades, .theAmerican Alumni Council and its pred-ecessors were run largely by volun-teer effort. Today both the CornellAlumni Association and the AAC turnto professional staffs to provide direc-tion and a more tightly efficient pro-gram for their respective members.

Phonathons, IBM printouts, andregional offices are the visible evi-dence of this for Cornell's alumni. Anend to big conventions and an increasein staff-conducted training and consul-tation may be evidence that the AAChas gone more "instrumental" and less"affective." Something will have beenlost and something gained in any suchchange.

I find in reviewing the history of theNEWS that an active involvement of itseditor with the life of professionalalumni workers is not a new thing. Atthe AAC convention I became a partof closing a fifty-two year circle ofinvolvement by the NEWS in the workυf AAC.

Cornell has been a leader in alumniwork for its 100-plus years, from thetime the first Cornell alumni organiza-tion was formed in 1872. Since theNEWS itself was founded in 1899, itsstaff has played a key role in the uni-versity's alumni work, and for the pastsixty years in professional alumniwork nationally.

In 1921, the magazine's editor, R.W. (Tubby) Sailor '07, was electedpresident of Alumni Magazines, Asso-ciated, an organization of alumni mag-

azine editors and managers. The nextyear, Foster Coffin '12 was electedpresident of the Association of AlumniSecretaries, a similar group for profes-sional alumni administrators.

Some forty years later, Joe Mi-nogue '45 and then John Detmold '43were elected chairmen of theAmerican Alumni Council for fund-raising activities. (Joe was at Cornell,John was by this time director of de-velopment at Connecticut College.)

The AAC was formed in 1927 bycombining a number of organizationssuch as the two that Sailor and Coffinhad headed earlier. The three mainbranches of alumni work are adminis-tration, funάmising, and periodical ed-iting. Thus Cornellians had headed allthree main branches of professionalalumni work. And three of these menhad been editors of the NEWS at onetime or another: Sailor was editor-in-chief from 1917 until 1944; Coffin, a

R. W. Sailor '07 and Foster Coffin '12


former Sun editor, served many yearsas an associate editor of the NEWS;and Detmold was an assistant editorfor several years after his gradua-tion.

The circle of professional alumniservice was closed this July when I waselected to the position equivalent tothe one Sailor held in 1921, chairmanfor communications of the AmericanAlumni Council. Over a fifty-two-yearperiod, then, the staff of the NEWS hadbegun repeating itself, though it is un-likely that we will match Sailor's addi-tional service as editor of the AAC fortwenty years and its president for one.And as if to continue the cycle, ourformer associate editor, Elise Han-cock, now editor of the Johns HopkinsMagazine, was recently named chair-man for communications for the largemid-Atlantic district of AAC.

The sixtieth convention of alumni pro-fessionals was also the occasion forthe annual awarding of prizes forachievements in alumni work, andCornell came out well.

Hunt Bradley's history of the Alum-ni Association received a special cita-tion in competition sponsored byTime/Life, and the Office of Publica-tions won one of six awards fromTime/Life for last year's annual re-port, edited by John L. Gaffney.

Engineering: Cornell Quarterly, pub-lished by the College of Engineer-ing and edited by Gladys J. McCon-key, was named to the Top Ten Mag-azines for the first time. The NEWS

was also named to the Top Ten, forthe third time in four years. A checkof the records suggests this is only thesecond time one school has had morethan one magazine in the top ten.

The NEWS also took down a record(for us) number of other awards:First place in the Chronicle of HigherEducation competition, one of fiveregional first places in the Newsweekcompetition we had won nationallylast year, one of four second places .inthe Atlantic Award for excellence inwriting; and three special awards.

A photo by Larry Baum '72showing shielded policemen at theCarpenter Hall occupation in 1972was one of the twenty-five best photosin alumni periodicals last year, and"Bats 101: A Short Course" by assis-tant editor Arden Neisser and "AQuestion of Turf" by the editor weregiven special citations.

The Chronicle award was "for su-perior reporting of the institutional is-sues and internal problems of highereducation" for which the NEWS hadentered a summary of the Cranch re-port by the editor (January 1973),articles on the Collegetown and cam-pus confrontations of last May andJune by Dick Brass '73 and the editor(July 1972), and articles on women inhigher education by Margaret Condon'68 and Jennie Farley '54, and by ananonymous alumna (February 1973).

The Atlantic award for writing bythe staff of the magazine recognizedthe work of contributing editor GeofHewitt '66 ("Talking to the Stars,"May 1972), Arden Neisser's piece onbats (April 1973), Elise Hancock'scoverage of Reunion (September1972) and "One Woman's View"(February 1973), and the editor's "AQuestion of Turf" about town-gownrelations (July 1972).

All in all it was a happy year, forthe recognition accorded the variousmembers of the staff and outside con-tributors whose work goes to make upthe NEWS.

The editorial staff is not the only partof our organization represented in thework of professional alumni people,for this year the Ivy League AlumniMagazines elected Charlie Williams'44, general manager of the NEWS, aschairman. This is the first time a Cor-nellian has headed the group, whichsees to the selling of national advertis-ing for the six Ivy magazines that car-

ry ads: Dartmouth, Harvard, Penn,Princeton, Yale, and Cornell.

Birge Kinne '16 was salesman forthe Ivy Magazines for many success-ful years before his retirement in thelate 1960s. After an interim duringwhich the group had other representa-tives, a Cornellian is again the group'srep, William F. Barrett '64.

This issue introduces two writers newto the pages of the NEWS, Lawrence L.Horstman and Sheila Kushner.

Horstman is a graduate of Colum-bia, whose work in biochemistry ledhim to study in New York with Prof.Ephriam Racker of NYU beforeRacker came to Cornell. Horstmancame to Ithaca as a researcher. Ayear ago he left research to concen-trate on writing. He has been pub-lished in Science Digest and has sever-al book manuscripts out to publishers.In addition to his writing he has en-rolled in Cornell to work toward amaster's degree in education.

Ms. Kushner is a graduate of Bar-nard with a master's in English litera-ture from Columbia. She is a teacherin the Department of Special Pro-grams at City College of New York, awriter, and a volunteer public in-formation worker at the Medical Col-lege in New York.

A full-time newcomer to the NEWSstaff is Carol Koken, secretary, whohas been department secretary for theassistant director of alumni affairs forthe past five years. She is a formerstudent at Harper College, Bingham-ton, and was a secretary for a yearat the University Press before movingto Alumni House.

We are glad to have a secretary atthe NEWS again, and particularly gladit is someone so well versed in theworld of Cornell alumni, someone sowell known and liked. —JM

A Tribute To AGreat Cornellian

To members of CACBE and to all Cornellians:

On April 27, 1973, the writer, as a member of the Board of Directorsof the Institute for Humane Studies, attended a memorial funeral serviceheld in honor of a great Cornellian, Dr. Floyd A. Harper, founder" andPresident of the Institute referred to. Following the service a personaltribute to Dr. Harper was delivered by Charles G. Koch (Chairman ofthe Institute), from which the following has been taken:

Dr. Harper was born in Michigan in 1905; he obtained his under-graduate degree at Michigan State University and his doctorate atCornell where he stayed to teach as an instructor, later becoming a fullprofessor. Subsequently he joined the Foundation for Economic Educa-tion at Irvington, New York. Later he founded the Institute for HumaneStudies at Menlo Park, California. This fulfilled a dream he had longheld to create a center for basic research and advanced study in thehumane scholarly disciplines, functioning through a world-wide com-munity of scholars. He chose the word "humane" because this "char-acterizes man in his compassion, sympathy, and consideration forothers." The work of the Institute is focused on the crisis of our time—"man's inhumaneness to man/'

Mr. Koch went on to say, "Baldy", as we knew him, was one of thewisest men I have ever known. It was a combination of goodness andwisdom that gave him excellence in his principal role—that of ourteacher. He taught us about liberty which was, in his words, "theabsence of coercion on one human being by any other human being."No one personally better fitted this description than Baldy Harper. Hesought liberty because of his dedication to peace. "Peace," he told us,"will exist only as liberty is increased in all its forms among individualsthroughout the world/'

Of teaching others he said, "It must never be forgotten that one'sbeliefs are his most sacred property, even when in error as others mayjudge them. They should be treated with full respect. Change of opinionon any vital belief of a person is an extremely difficult and painfulprocess. It should be treated as such, with all the sympathy at one'scommand." Both from Baldy's words and from his example, we learnedthat "teaching, to be effective, must be, in fact as well as in spirit, afriendly, cooperative endeavor and not a battle between antagonists. Thisrequires much time, patience, and sincere sympathy for honest differ-ences of opinion."

As well as being a teacher, Baldy was a scholar over his entire life,and his thirst for knowledge led him to his understanding which heshared in his several dozen books and booklets printed in manylanguages, all concerned directly or indirectly with liberty. But hisgreatest impact was in face to face discussions. Never letting a dis-course become a debate or argument, he raised such probing questionsthat we were able to share a portion of his wisdom.

Mr. Koch, President of the Koch Foundation, has been a major bene-factor of the Institute almost since its inception and has served asChairman of its Board of Directors. Temporarily at least, he has takenover the duties of President of the Institute.

university by the American Associa-tion of University Professors. Whilethere is an understandable inclinationto give more and better space to Cor-nell successes than to Cornell humilia-tions, the treatment of the AAUPmatter in the NEWS suggests that it isa matter of relative unimportance.

The national press, in announcingthat Cornell and several other institu-tions had been censured by theAAUP, pointed out that this was thefirst instance of such censureship, notonly for Cornell, but for any Ivy Lea-gue' institution. That Cornell, with itsstrong tradition supporting individualhuman rights and freedoms should bethe first to break the Ivy League bar-rier strikes me as unfortunate indeed.

I have written to President Corsonurging him to take all reasonable stepsto remove Cornell from the AAUPlist of censured administrations, andurging him to do everything in hispower to help prevent a recurrence. Ihope that other alumni and friends ofCornell will also make their viewsknown to President Corson.

WILLIAM WORK '44

NEW YORK CITY

EDITOR: The university's position con-cerning the censure case referred to inthe letter of William Work '44 wascontained in a statement issued byRobert F. Risley, vice provost, onJune 6. I am sending a copy of thecomplete statement to Mr. Work.However, since the censure has re-ceived considerable attention and itsbasic cause is not well understood bythe general public, let me attempt tostate the university's position.

The censure of the university bythe American Association of Universi-ty Professors (AAUP) at its annualmeeting in St. Louis in late April arosefrom a case involving a nonreappoint-ment of an assistant professor (Dr.Endre M. Tarjan) on term appoint-ment at the Medical College.

The AAUP censure action wasbased on the fact Dr. Tarjan did notreceive written notice by December15, 1970 and that he could not expectcontinuation beyond June 30, 1971 inaccordance with the AAUP statementof principles. The AAUP investigatingreport concludes that lacking suchwritten notification Dr. Tarjan's termi-nation was "tantamount to a dismissal

in contravention of the (AAUP) 1940-Statement of Principles on AcademicFreedom and Tenure." The reportalso concluded that the financial emer-gency which the college administrationsaid necessitated the termination wasnot sufficient to justify termination ofDr. Tarjan because other funds wereavailable to the Medical College andto the university which migHt havebeen used to support him. The reportcriticizes the policies followed by theMedical College.

In the presentation of the universi-ty's case, it was the uncontested posi-tion of the Medical College and theuniversity that Dr. Tarjan was givenoral notice by December 15, 1970. Itwas pointed out that policy at thattime did not require such notice to bein writing. It was also argued that theefforts to seek other funds to supportDr. Tarjan beyond June 30, 1971should be considered to be good faithefforts to continue him if possible andnot be held to modify the effect of thenotice.

Special university by-law provisionsgovern appointment at the MedicalCollege. These provisions are similarto those in most medical colleges. Thestory about the AAUP action in TheChronicle of Higher Education (Vol.VII No. 31, May 7, 1973) quotes arepresentative from the University ofOregon Medical School as opposingthe censure and saying, "Most medicalSchool faculties will think he (Dr. Tar-jan) was treated amazingly well."

In the Cornell response to theAAUP charges, it was pointed outthat within the university by-laws andpolicy guidelines each college has anopportunity to establish its own ap-propriate policies and procedures re-garding appointments, promotions, ter-minations, etc. The Medical Collegefaculty and administration have beenworking on new procedures and inMay 1973 the General FacultyCouncil and Executive Faculty Coun-cil of the college developed a revised"Academic Personnel AppointmentsProcedure." These procedures shouldsatisfactorily answer the questionsraised by the AAUP in respect to no-tification of appointments and writtennotification of termination or non-renewal of appointments either by De-cember 15 or with a minimum of sixmonths notice.

The university by-laws and policiesconcerning appointments, promotions,


and tenure and dismissal covering theIthaca campus are generally consistentwith the AAUP 1940 Principles.While each college or school has de-veloped its own appropriate proceduresadapted to its needs and size, thesemust not be inconsistent with the uni-versity by-laws and policies. The uni-versity administration and faculty willbe seeking to further improve facultypersonnel policies and procedures.

It should be understood that theAAUP censure action is based upon acase and practices at the Medical Col-lege. No issues have been raised con-cerning school and colleges at Ithaca.In view of the revised policies andprocedures developed by the MedicalCollege, discussions will be undertakenwith AAUP representatives seeking tohave the censure action removed. It ishoped that this can be accomplishedsoon.

FootnotesThe ALUMNI NEWS (June 1973)quotes President Nixon as saying in amessage to the Cornell dinner inWashington on March 28 for Secre-tary of State William P. Rogers, LLB'37, "It seems just yesterday I partici-pated in a similar event."

I share the President's feeling, be-cause I, too, was present at that pre-vious dinner on December 10, 1957.Rogers at that time was attorney gen-eral. Former provost Arthur S.Adams and I, who were both then onthe staff of the American Council onEducation, were guests of JudgeMary Donlon '20.

It was the second time I had seenRichard M. Nixon, then vice pres-ident, within a month. Early inNovember he had been the principalspeaker at an ACE dinner in theBrown Palace Hotel in Denver, at thetime of the annual meeting of theAssociation of Land-Grant Collegesand State Universities. I was assignedto escort him from his room to thebanquet hall and was honored with aseat at the head table.

I had been a consultant to the Col-lege Entrance Examination Board ona study which recommended to theNational Science Foundation thatthere should be no federal scholar-ships for undergraduates unless therecipients had a free choice of aca-demic majors. The study, endorsed bythe National Science Foundation,stated that it was not a proper func-tion of the Federal Government tobribe students to take certain courseswhen they were better fitted to takeothers.

A minute or two later, I rose, wentover, and tapped Mr. Nixon on theshoulder. "I'm curious," I said. "WasI yelling too loud, or do you haveunusually good hearing?"

He grinned and replied, "Don't youknow they call me the eavesdrop-per?"

At the end of his speech, I did riseand ask him the question. He sum-marized my argument so clearly andeloquently that I later published hisstatement, without editing, in the Ed-ucational Record.

A month later, at the Rogers din-ner, I recognized a Secret Serviceagent whom I had seen for a fewmoments with the vice president inthe Brown Palace. I assumed he hadseen many hundreds of people in nu-merous places during the interveningmonth, and thought I would play amild joke on him. I walked over andsaid, "Hello. It's good to see youagain."

"It's good to see you, too," he said."How's everything in Denver?"

I suspect he even knew that Icouldn't answer his question.

EDITOR: Why don't we all get togeth-er at the Watergate to celebrate "thatreassuring fact" (June ALUMNI NEWS,page 20) that the majority of Cornell'sliving (are you sure?) alumni are Re-publicans.

It has always been my belief thatthe primary purpose of a university isto enlighten minds; in the case of themajority of our alumni, it would ap-pear that Cornell has failed in thatgoal.

We must all be gratified to knowthat a large number of our fellowalumni helped to elect the most cor-

A Correction

EDITOR: Yesterday for the first time Isaw H. A. Stevenson's book Cornell inPictures: The First Century and no-ticed a grave error in the report onwrestling in the 1920s. The picture ofCornell's 1922 intercollegiate wrestlingchampionship team is correct and Iwas indeed captain of that team but Idid not win the Olympic championshipin 1920 as reported with the picture.

Charles Edwin Ackerly '20 my old-er brother was captain of Cornell's1920 wrestling team and in the sum-mer of 1920 after graduation fromCornell and after qualifying in thetrials in New York City he went toAntwerp, Belgium with our teams. Hewas the only US wrestler in anyweight class to win the first place, goldmedal and trophy presented personallyby King Albert of the Belgians. Thiswas an achievement not duplicated byany American wrestler for manyyears.

It is difficult to make a suitablecorrection after the publication ofsuch fine books on Cornell. Perhaps ifyou print my letter many interestedalumni will get the true fact.

immensely these last two or threeyears.

I hadn't really read it a whole lotup to then except for the class notesand to see who's dead. However, morerecently the magazine has moved con-siderably farther toward the centerthan Senator Goldwater (a man I re-specί, notwithstanding), and I mustsay it is a pleasure to find opinions inthis journal which postdate Victoriaand Albert, not to mention the bizarreTeapot Dome incident.

All this is to say that I think youpeople are doing a fine job, and in myhumble opinion the ALUMNI NEWS isin good twentieth-century hands.

¥ ¥ X H E N ZEVI BLUM first arrived at Cornell as

\ I m a ^ r e s ^ m a n ^n 1951, just thirty-three years1 1 1 after his father graduated, he was resolved^ ^ ^ ^ r to become an architect. In fact, he became

an architect, graduating with the Class of '57. But whenhe returned to Ithaca to live in 1969, and to Cornell toteach in 1971, he came not as an architect but as anaccomplished artist—one of those rare ones whomakes his living at it.

This is not to say he has renounced architecture. Itis true that his works are not to be found in concrete,steel, and glass anywhere on this earth, but the preci-sion line of the master architectural draftsman remainsclearly in evidence, even though turned to a differentaccount. Archways and soaring spires, ramparts andesplanades, all persist in his art to remind us of thearchitect in the heart of every man—and, as proof thathis hours spent in White Hall as an undergraduatewere scarcely wasted! And yet, as often as not, thespires turn out to be lances or maces, obelisks ofriveted steel become the legs of horses or the necks ofknights, and steel reinforcing rods appear in the ap-parel of noble, or not-so-noble, ladies. Evidently, Blumhas become an architect of fancy.

What happened to Zevi Blum to effect this trans-formation? "I like to draw," he replies with a shrug, " Ialways have." In effect, he denies that any transforma-tion ever took place. Pure art was always his first loveand architecture was part of it: a ''reinforcing disci-pline," as he puts it, that developed and cultivated his"love of line"—the delicate mapping out of space thatis inseparable from his art. When asked about hismemories at Cornell, he recalls with fond nostalgia thehours spent in the huge drafting room then on the topfloor of Franklin Hall, and shared by all undergradu-ate architects. There, "under the mansard," he enjoyedthe atmosphere of community and purposeful industry."But I took every fine arts elective that I could," headds, and remembers that Professors Daly, Evett, Har-tell, and Colby were particularly encouraging.

After graduation from Cornell, he worked for sevenyears for a New York architectural firm which special-ized in residences, churches, and temples, rising to theposition of project manager for a number of buildings.In 1965, he took a leave from this position to acceptan independent commission for a sanctuary mural,which occupied him for roughly six months. Duringthis time, he was offered his first one-man galleryshow, which opened at Contemporaries Gallery inNew York City in 1966. It sold out, and he neverwent back to architecture.

During this past year, his work has appeared ingallery shows in London, Washington, and New York,as well as in Ithaca. Although he is primarily a galleryartist, Horizon magazine featured his interpretations ofthe Canterbury Tales in its spring 1971 issue, and Blumis currently working on a second folio of drawings forthat magazine on the theme of Rabelais' Gargantuaand Pantάgruel. Other periodicals that have dealt withhis works include Lίthopinion, Λntioch Review, Intel-lectual Digest, and Print. A Blum drawing was on thecover of the Print issue that surveyed his work, andalso on the cover of the Cornell-published Administra-tive Science Quarterly last year.

Recently, he has contributed drawings interpretingcontemporary social and political issues for the editori-al pages and book reviews of the New York Times,and will be included in Art of the Times, a book beingcompiled for Dover Press. Blum has been selected bythe Steuben Glass Company for their one-of-a-kindcrystal designs, and his work was featured in the Juneissue of the prestigious Graphis magazine, the Swiss-published European journal of graphics.

It's no use trying to classify Zevi's work. It justdoesn't fit into any contemporary trends or "culturalmainstreams" in the art world. In addition to anuncompromisingly personal style, he works exclusively

Opposite page: 'Waiting for Winter'


September 1973

with techniques that were widely used several centuriesago but are rare in contemporary art—pen-and-inkand, more recently, etching. His pictures also departfrom current trends in depending for their impact ontheir very two-dimensionality and static flatness, ratherthan on depth, color, and blocked-out masses. Often,the viewer is first impressed with a sense of dizzyingconfusion—his pictures demand careful looking. But,as the viewer sorts through the complexity and richnessof detail, images emerge wifh a powerful, delayedimpact.

Zevi's themes are the classics: the Bible, Homer,Cervantes, Chaucer, Dante. Consistent with this, histreatments have a distinctly formal, medieval, or baro-que flavor, reminiscent of Bosch or Breughel (whomBlum admires). Many of his earlier drawings depictedliterally hundreds of lilliputian figures on an ocean ofpaper, engaged in frantic and often pompous activities,suddenly frozen and seen as from a great distance. Butmore recently, he seems to be zooming in on his sub-jects with a bolder style, emphasizing more luxuriouslyflowing forms. Figures that previously had all the fas-cination of an ant-colony are now seen close-up, in-credibly detailed, with all the gorgeous trappings thatadorn the human form.

Zevi himself is not unlike the pictures he draws.With his jutting beard and stocky build, he remindsone of some Old Testament prophet. His conversation,too, has an oracular ring—he often speaks in riddles.Witty and friendly, yet aloof, he can rarely be coaxedinto serious discourse on art: "For me, art is a person-al thing," he says. When greeted with the customary"How are you?" he is likely to reflect a moment, thengravely reply, "One never knows."

Blum's actual method of working couldn't be sim-pler: he sits down and he draws. "Art is therapy," heremarks. The lines issue spontaneously, ideas andforms float into being, composing themselves. Blummakes no claim to fully understand his own drawings,admitting that half the time he has no idea of what heis going to draw when he settles down at his bigdrafting table, flooded with lights, and sets pen topaper. "My mind is as blank as the paper," says Zevi.

One of the most enchanting qualities of Zevi's workis the warm, wry, often bawdy humor that temperseven his most brutal scenes. "Nothing's either black orwhite," Zevi comments, "notice that my lines are most-ly tones of greys." He regards his work as "narrativeart" dealing with the "human foibles" he regards ascentral to the classic themes he interprets.

J. C. Saures, art director of the Times who inter-viewed him for Print, was struck by "the beauty of hislines and the mysterious stillness of his figures. It wasas if he had discovered a planet and was reportingfrom it . . . I thought that with a little communicationhe could perhaps send us messages from that planet."

Opposite page: 'The Assignation'

'The New Leff

But let there be no mistake: the planet he inhabits isthe planet Earth. One cannot miss the sense of over-blown pomp in Blum's pictures, the cruelty and stupid-ity in the lips and mocking eyes of the powerful, thestilted formality of public rituals, the hopeless tangle oflines in which all are caught up. Yet somehow it is allrelieved, if not redeemed, by the lovely grace andnobility of his figures, depicted with such compellingsympathy.

"I literally live off of the white spaces of paper," hesays, mixing ink and preparing to draw.

One imagines that, whenever he can get away, ZeviBlum sets sail in his paper boat on his limitless oceansof paper, criss-crossing and exploring the uncorruptedexpanses before him, defining with his delicate wake ofink the people and places we cannot see, and delight-ing those who come after with visions as improbable asthey are real.

Cornell team achieves a first in a bid

to control the tropical disease that

afflicts 2 0 0 million. A Filipino in an

infested rice paddy is host to thousands

of worms, like those at right filtered

from a patient using the new technique.

To MOST of us> a snail is a harmless creature whoseempty shell makes a great plaything for children. How-ever, for approximately 200,000,000 people in tropicalcountries throughout the world (including a growingnumber of American tourists), a snail has been thecarrier of an extraordinarily troublesome disease. Thisdisease, schistosomiasis or snail fever, has severalsevere symptoms, including chronic lethargy, whichaffect not only the well-being of individuals but also thecultural and economic progress of many underde-veloped countries.

Schistosomiasis is considered such a menace thatwhen three American doctors went to the Philippines in1968 to demonstrate public health and surgical mea-sures to control schistosomiasis, they were given nation-al honors, hailed as heroes by the press, and even hadan island, Kegori, nam^d for them. One of these doc-tors was Edward Goldsmith '47, MD '50 who, with hisCornell Medical College-New York Hospital colleague,Dr. B. H. Kean, had developed a revolutionary surgi-cal technique to treat the disease. (The third doctor,Laurence Ritchie of the US Public Health Service, wasan adviser on the ecology of the snail.)

It would be pleasant to report that Drs. Goldsmithand Kean, like fairy-tale figures, wiped out with onemighty blow all the internal parasites which causeschistosomiasis, and saved whole nations. The actual

Schistosomiasis worms removed from a patient in thePhilippines in 1968 by Cornell doctors rtere a surgical first.

story, however, is not so simple. It is a story of realaccomplishments, but also of enormous frustrations—frustrations that relate to the nature of schistosomi-asis.

According to Dr. Goldsmith, schistosomiasis may bealmost as unavoidable in some parts of the world as thecommon cold is in ours. "A person contracts the dis-ease," he says, "by coming into contact with freshwater inhabited by the snail which is the intermediatehost for the schistosomes—tiny, parasitic flatworms.The snail sheds larvae of these schistosomes, and thelarvae swim freely in the water.

"If a person walks in this water, or washes in it, thelarvae can burrow into human tissue and make thatperson their new host. A vicious cycle is then created in

countries with poor sanitary practices. The infectedhuman feces get into the water in which snails live, andbecause the feces contain eggs of the schistosomes,they reinfect the snails.

'The problem is that the contaminated water whichbreeds these snails may be anywhere in tropical coun-tries—in stagnant streams, irrigation ditches, canals,and rice paddies. Most rural people in these countriescannot avoid coming into contact with infectedwaters.

"And as thousands of American soldiers who landedat Red Beach on Leyte in the Philippines found out in1944, snail fever is easy to pick up. Unfortunately,however, it doesn't go away easily. In fact, it canremain active for as long as thirty years, creating moreand more trouble."

The Disease and its Cure

Once contracted, schistosomiasis follows a well-defined and very damaging course. The larvae firstmake their way to the liver, and then enter the bloodvessels of the colon and other internal organs. Afterthey mature into adult worms, they copulate and pro-duce large numbers of spiny eggs—approximately 300to 3,000 a day, depending on the variety of schisto-some involved. These eggs work their way through the

intestine or bladder, irritating and scarring tissues andcausing inflammation of various organs. As a result,colitis (inflammation of the colon), chronic hepatitis,cirrhosis of the liver, and enlargement of the spleenoften accompany snail fever.

Some drugs were known to be effective in curingschistosomiasis, but they have toxic side effects. Dr.Goldsmith explains: "Most drugs work by poisoningthe enzyme systems of invading organisms. But sincemany of the enzyme systems of schistosomes are verysimilar to those of a human, in killing the schistosomeyou may adversely affect the enzyme systems of thepatient, and particularly affect the heart."

Since available drugs were not effective and safeenough, Dr. Goldsmith, a surgeon, and Dr. Kean, anexpert in tropical diseases, began investigating a surgi-cal approach to curing schistosomiasis. They reasonedthat since the disease was spread by adult worms,which are larger than blood elements, it might be pos-sible to filter these worms from the blood and so stop orat least slow down the production of eggs and thespread of the disease. At first, they- experimented withbaboons, and when these experiments proved success-ful, they applied what they had learned to the treat-ment of humans.

On the invitation of a Brazilian colleague, they wentto Salvador, Bahia, Brazil in 1967 to perform theprocedure on three patients whose spleens had been soseriously damaged that they had to be removed. Twoof the patients were young boys, 12 and 14, and thethird was a 29-year-old farmer.

The object of the surgical procedure was to establishan external circuit which would draw blood from theportal vein, the vein that carries blood from the intes-tines, where the schistosomes reside, to the liver. Thesplenectomies provided a convenient means of reachingthe portal vein, since the splenic vein was connectedboth to the spleen and the portal vein. After eachsplenectomy, a catheter (a hollow plastic tube) waspassed into the stump of the splenic vein and fromthere to the portal vein. The blood from the portal veinwas then pumped into a circuit outside the body whichincluded a standard blood filter. The blood was thenpumped back into the body through another easilyaccessible vein.

Once this external circuit was functioning, the doc-tors administered antimony (tartar emetic) to the pa-tient. This drug has the curious property of making theschistosomes begin to migrate from the intestine to theliver, as if on command, passing through the portalvein. In approximately fifteen minutes, the blood filterin the external circuit began to catch worms.

The first indication of success was the number ofworms trapped in the filter at the end of the operation.In each case, enough worms—between 146 and 799—were removed to make the procedure effective. It wasa medical breakthrough for Drs. Goldsmith and Kean—the first successful removal of internal parasites from

the human body by surgery.However, since no one could tell how many worms

had existed in a patient's body, the final test of successhad to be the elimination or reduction of the produc-tion of eggs in the patient. In these and other cases, itwas demonstrated some months later that the parentseither produced no more live eggs, or that egg produc-tion had been drastically reduced.

Testing the New Technique

After this success, Drs. Goldsmith and Kean wanted totry their procedure on the other two types of schisto-some—one prevalent in the Middle East and Africaand the other in Asia.

Another colleague invited the doctors to Iran laterthe same year and there in a small hospital in Ahwaz,they again performed their surgical procedure. Dr.Goldsmith recalls that before the operation, he noticeda large crowd standing outside the hospital. When heasked why they were there, he was told that they wererelatives of the patient and were ready to kill thedoctor if the patient died.

Dr. Goldsmith is alive to tell the tale. The patientsurvived, but the worms were not mobilized by theantimony, probably because the Middle Eastern varietyof schistosome, which attacks the bladder rather thanthe liver, is biologically different from the others.

The Philippine experience of 1968 contrasted greatly

both in tone and result. The doctors had been invitedto the Philippines by Mrs. Imelda Marcos, wife of thecountry's president, and stayed in the Presidential Pal-ace on Leyte Beach, a few miles from Red Beach,where American soldiers had landed in 1944 on theirway to recapturing the Philippines. They were feted atpresidential dinners, interviewed by newsmen, and gen-erally treated as conquering heroes.

They performed three successful operations in a hos-pital run by German nuns, taught their procedure tolocal doctors, and finally left their equipment in thehospital for local use.

Gratifying as the Philippine experience had been,Dr. Goldsmith and Kean did not rest on their laurels.For one thing, they recognized that their surgical tech-nique, though it was useful in treating severe cases ofschistosomiasis, was not the most practical method foruse in underdeveloped countries, where the chances ofa patient being reinfected were great. The techniquewas, however, of great value to people who were notgoing to be reexposed to the disease, as was the casewith tourists or with migrants from tropical areas wherethe disease is endemic, to areas of the world where it isnot. (It has been estimated that as many as 80,000Puerto Rican immigrants to New York City also havethe disease.)

Since many of these people have mild symptoms, thedoctors decided to try to refine their surgical procedureso that it could be used in cases where the patient wasnot undergoing a major operation. The new procedure


is cheaper and safer than the original one, but theprinciple is the same. After a small incision, a catheteris passed into the umbilical vein—the only vein close tothe surface which also leads into the portal vein. Theoriginal procedure is then followed. The complete oper-ation now takes about two hours, and the patient canbe out of the hospital in a few days.

Far Travellers in the Tropics

Dr. Goldsmith believes that this refined technique mayprove extremely useful to travellers to the tropics. Headvises that travellers who may have come into contactwith contaminated water be on the alert for symptomsof schistosomiasis. According to Dr. Goldsmith, a per-son who contracts the disease may have an acute illnessin which there is fever, a skin rash, and a generalfeeling of malaise, followed by a long symptomlessperiod. Or the patient may have symptoms such asdiarrhea, internal bleeding, and stomach pains and ten-derness. In either case, stool specimens should be tak-en, and if eggs are not discovered, the presence of thedisease may be determined by rectal biopsy.

Schistosomiasis remains a major health problem inunderdeveloped countries. Ironically, efforts to extend

agricultural irrigation in these countries increase thespread of schistosomiasis. As Dr. Goldsmith explains."When you extend the surface area of stagnant water,such as water in irrigation canals, you increase thenumber of snails. Moreover, as long as people useunsanitary toilet habits, the spread of snail fever islikely."

Since no effective, non-toxic drug to combat schisto-somiasis has yet been developed, the best solutions tothe problem seem to be upgrading sanitary practicesand developing means of interrupting the life cycle ofthe parasite by killing the schistosome larvae or thesnail. Two chemicals presently exist that are harmlessto humans but kill snails. Unfortunately, they also killother forms of aquatic life, so a more promising solu-tion is to try to attack the snail by "natural" or biologi-cal means—notably through the larvae of the marshfly, which attack the snail and feed on its flesh.

But what of the hundreds of millions of people whocurrently suffer from schistosomiasis? Dr. Goldsmithsays that "there's no reason for anyone in a non-endemic area to walk around with schistosomes, sincethey can be removed safely. Even in endemic areas,patients with severe infections can undergo removaland be instructed in how to avoid reinfection. In somecases, the surgical procedure could be life-saving."

Theodore Lowi;Big SolutionsBy R. H. Lieberman '62

WATERGATE ISonly the mostrecent in a se-

ries of instances in the pasteleven years," explainsTheodore Lowi, "instancesin which American presi-dents came to the pointwhere they couldn't copewith politics as usual. Sothey resorted to unconven-tional and illegal means.Johnson encouraged theArmy bugging of more than18,000 civilians; he alsoused political trials and thedraft to get rid of dissi-dents. And Kennedy," Lowicontinues without pausingfor a breath, "used the un-convent iona l tact ics ofpeace- t ime mobilizationwhen he failed at the Bayof Pigs."

Agree with Lowi's opin-ions or not, there is no dis-puting that he is an extra-ordinary man. As the JohnL. Senior professor ofAmerican institutions, The-odore Lowi holds the en-dowed university chair pre-viously occupied by two luminaries, Dexter Perkinsand the late Clinton Rossiter '39. Cornell's only uni-versity chair, the Senior professorship is an exceptional-ly lucrative and powerful appointment. [A universityprofessor may select the academic department withinthe university to which he belongs; he "shall be free tochoose his own forms of academic work and will beexpected to participate in teaching."—Ed.]

In addition to a generous salary, Lowi has broaddiscretionary control over affiliated funds, the amountof which he says he refuses, on principle, to make pub-lic. He happily agrees, however, that the Senior pro-fessorship provides an ideal platform for his some-what unusual ideas about American political life.

A sampling of those views includes Lowi's convictionthat political liberalism is the root cause of ineffective

legislation; that PresidentNixon is not only a liberalbut-also a tyrant; and thatAmerica is currently in themidst of a profound govern-mental crisis.

As solutions, Lowi pro-poses among others suchactions as broad judicialinvalidation of all vaguefederal legislation, a com-plete rewrite of present-daylaw books, and abstentionfrom national elections.

"The only solutions Iknow to big problems arebig solutions," he says, "butI don't expect anyone toact on my proposals. I fol-low Bentham. I offer solu-tions mainly by way ofrounding out the analysis. Idon't actually believe any-body will implement them.But if they did, they wouldwork! I have faith that theywould work."

At 41, Theodore Lowi isa fast-talking, quick-witted,dark blond and blue-eyedAlabamian with a nationalreputation as . an incisive

political analyst and critic. His impressive list of booksand publications includes The End of Liberalism, anexamination of what he considers the end of the Ameri-can "Liberal" state, and Pursuit of Justice, which hedid with Robert F. Kennedy in 1967.

He is a strikingly handsome man, whose speech isstill faintly colored by an earlier southern drawl. Likemany Southerners, he is affable and he likes to talk—often without stopping between sentences. An hourwith Lowi and one comes away dizzy from a displayof fast-shooting political razzle-dazzle that can't fail toimpress. For an academician, he comes across withsurprising verve.

Lowi spent the first eighteen years of his life inGadsden, Alabama, a small town north of Birmingham.For the most part, he grew up with the usual Southern


Liberals have a good set of sentiments—I count myself aliberal in terms of long range goals.

But they believe that sentiments are all you need.

attitudes of the time—except for a twist or two."We were an unusual family, Southern Jews in a

small Southern community," he recalls. "We were ter-ribly apprehensive about the coming of integration, asall the whites there were. My parents were libertarian,'but they were worried because they didn't know how toact in front of blacks. The only blacks they knew weremaids and servants.

"I grew up in an environment where it was consid-ered only right that black people should be separated.I had to be liberated, as most Southern kids do."

That liberation started for Lowi with two events in1948 while he was still a junior in high school. Thefirst occurred on a night out with his fellow varsityfootball players.

"Among the varsity players there was a kind ofbuck-up spirit—everybody egged everybody else on.One night we were driving around and someone said,'Let's go nigger killing.' I didn't know what thatmeant, because I had never gone out with them atnight before. But I soon found out. They boughtthick malted milks at the local stand, and, speedingdown a street where blacks lived, they picked out anadult in his Sunday clothes and threw the malteds athim.

"I was stunned and humiliated. I couldn't believethat people would choose to do that to someone else.It had a profound effect on me."

The second event occurred later that same year,when the Dixiecrats were running Strom Thurmond forPresident on a third-party ticket. "The big issue in theSouth was Fair Employment Practices—FEPC—andwhether the Yankees were going to force it down ourthroats. In civics class we got to discussing it, and ofcourse the teacher was against it as well. She feltintegration was against the innate laws of nature.

"I wrote our congressman and asked for material onFEPC. He sent me something I still have today—it'sthe Truman civil rights report, To Secure these Rights.I read the Truman Commission report and from thattime I was an integrationist. Very much alienated, Idecided to look outside the South."

Lowi decided to head north for college. He went toMichigan State, where he received a bachelors degree,and then on to Yale for his doctorate. He came toCornell for the first time in 1959 as an instructor in thegovernment department. Six years later and anassistant professor, he moved on to the University of

Chicago, where he remained until last year, when hereturned to Cornell to accept the Senior professorship.

Today, Lowi's sentiments about the South havemoderated to the point that he feels comfortable there.He maintains that this is because he has been able tolive outside the South, to experience a different lifestyle, to see that injustice is not limited to the South.He also feels that the South has changed and that alife of civility and justice is possible in many areas ofDixie.

A BELIEF that is central to much of Lowi's po-litical philosophy is that all American admin-istrations since the latter part of the New Deal

have been basically liberal. He includes the Nixon ad-ministration.

"Oh, Nixon is a liberal also. He's more intentional-ly 'conservative' about goals, but he uses the statealmost exactly as the Johnson and Kennedy adminis-trations did. They all worked the same way, expressingsincerely felt sentiments and then delegating the powerof implementation to others, as far away from thecenter as possible.

"It's the way liberals choose to use the state. Liberalshave a good set of sentiments—I count myself a liber-al in terms of long-range goals. But when they goabout using government to bring about that life, liber-als reveal a peculiar quirk. They believe that senti-ments are all you need.

"Whether they're preparing legislation on welfare,or taxes, or integration, they rely on eloquent languagein the preamble—that is, a series of 'whereases.' Whenthey get to the 'therefore be it enacted' clauses theysimply say 'Let the experts deal with it.' They delegateall the coercive powers.

"If he can delegate power further and further downthe line, back to the local level where the applicationof policy occurs, the liberal feels he has avoided coer-cion, and that the state has been used beneficially. Hehas ignored, however, what the conservative under-stands—that governments are by definition coercive.What really matters is how you use the .coercion, forwhat purpose, for what kinds of procedures, and withwhat safeguards.

"When you delegate power to the President and ondown to the lower administrators or the local govern-ments all you're doing is providing resources for localelites to reinforce their position."


To Lowi, the results of this approach on the part otliberals are everywhere apparent. "For example," hesays, "look at the public housing programs. The loca-tion of most public housing projects has been used as ameans of restoring property value. Blacks may havegotten clean bathrooms out of it, but basically I wouldcall it slum renewal. One set of densely populatedhousing is replaced with another. Most of the factorsthat led to the deterioration are still there, but mean-while you've removed the problem from an area whereyou can restore the tax base."

Results such as these, Lowi feels, have contributedto the growing alienation of young people, a tendencythat Congress has attempted to counter by extendingthe vote to 18-year-olds.

"To me it's no coincidence that this has occurred ata time when students have misbehaved more than theyhad in recent decades. It's a way of reconquering,bringing them back into the system. Extension ofsuffrage has always been an act of conquest. It'sbetter than military conquest, but let's not lose sight ofwhat it's all about. If you give someone more partici-patory rights, he will feel the system is more legiti-mate."

In Lowi's opinion, doubt about the legitimacy of ourgovernment has become so widespread and so pro-found that it amounts to a national crisis.

"A crisis," he explains, "is a time when existingroutines and tried methods don't produce the predictedoutcomes." In normal times, he maintains, you canusually predict the outcome of any given action orpolicy. "That's what society is all about—to get peopleto act in predictable ways.

"Our crisis is less serious than some, such as theFrench crisis after Algeria. I don't see tommy-gunsaround the White House. But I do see gigantic bore-dom and retreat from the normal forms of participa-tion. I see restiveness about accepting the government'ssolutions to problems."

This crisis, as Lowi describes it, has compelled thegovernment to use extra muscle in order to just keepgoverning, a tendency that he feels reached its height(or depth) during the Johnson administration. Hepoints to such tactics as the recent flurry of conspiracytrials, widespread government surveillance of citizens,the use of police for political work (such as Chicago's'Red Squads'), and the whole spectrum of activitiesexposed by the Watergate investigation.

"Part of my evidence for the fact that we are havinga crisis now is the extent to which government officialsthemselves feel that they can't cope. And that's whenthey start using conspiracy trials.

"Every conspiracy trial has failed. Every one! But acharge of conspiracy is a marvellous weapon for ahard-pressed government. It's easy to get an indict-ment for conspiracy, even if you can't make it stick,and then you've got the accused under serious surveil-lance and restraint."

Lowi considers such tactics futile attempts to dealwith the crisis. He strongly believes that one remedylies in judicial action, that the Supreme Court shouldreview legislation so broadly that it would force athorough reconstruction of constitutional law. "Whatwe need is a total constitutional reconstruction. Topeople who know what that means—to erase the lawbooks and start all over again—that's a very radicalthing.

"I'm not saying that Congress should have no pro-grams, but when it enacts statutes they should containmore than empty rhetoric. The courts must knockdown legislation which embodies no law. If the courtvoided this kind of legislation and there was still pres-sure for action on a particular matter, then Congresswould necessarily be forced to enact legislation ofgreater legal integrity."

Withholding consent, or "abstentionism" as Lowiterms it, might well be another viable recourse forAmerican voters. "There is damn little power that thepeople have, even in a democracy, but they do haveone kind of power which we in the US have still notchosen to use—to withold consent."

Abstentionism as Lowi defines it does not meanvoting for the other candidate, but rather "non-voting"or casting an empty ballot. Its purpose is not to inval-idate an election, but to deprive politicians of an essen-tial need for approval.

"Most politicians have been brought up in the tradi-tion that it is deeply important to maintain consent.They've been psychologically conditioned to such apoint that they even seek approval personally whenthey don't need it politically. They need approval"

Lowi realizes that casting blank ballots is not anAmerican tradition, but he points out that it was exact-ly the threat of Peronists casting empty ballots thatbrought Peron back to Argentina.

Another remedy Lowi recommends is simply"spreading the truth that we are governed by a tyran-ny. It's clear in my mind that we do live under a stateof tyranny. There's just no question that we do.

"A tyrant is defined as a person who governs with-out recourse to law or precedent. Now he may be abenevolent tyrant, a wise tyrant, even a tyrant bydefault, but if he is so situated that he can do anythinghe wants, I call it tyranny.

"There are worse tyrannies in the world. There aremore far-reaching and cruel tyrannies. But to say thatwe are not a tyranny is to misrepresent the case and tohave us continue giving our consent to that nonsense inWashington called government. I call it simply a uni-lateral use of power.

"You can call the President corrupt and he'll simplywait for you to prove it. You call him sentimental andhe'll love you. You make a demand of him and he'llbefriend you. But call him a tyrant—and make itstick—and my suspicion is that he'll change his ways."


Athletics Robert J. Kane '34

The Perils of PEA bill (D-15) recommending the uni-versity's physical education require-ment for freshmen and sophomores bedropped will be coming before theUniversity Senate early this fall. Therequirement is a faculty requirementand can only be altered by the facul-ty. A recommendation from the Sen-ate is bound to be strongly persuasive,however.

There has been a requirement forthe women which goes back sixtyyears. For the men it began as a war-time measure during World War IIand it was voted to continue it as auniversity requirement in 1946, with-out a dissenting vote in the faculty.The wartime program was a tough,commando-type regimen to prepareour young men for the rigors of mili-tary service. The post-war programwas to be devoted to the learning ofcarryover recreational sports whichcould be played the rest of one's life.We were rather whistling Dixie onthat idea at the time because our fa-cilities were so dreadfully lacking. Thehoary old Armory served as the men'sgym and the jejune atmosphere ofSage Hall basement was an even moretawdry apology as the women's sportsbuilding. Gad, when I reflect back onthose embarrassing old traps and com-pare them to the magnificentlyequipped, the hygenic aroma, the ar-chitectural elegance of Helen New-man and Teagle—and Grummanand Lynah and Moakley House—andto think that those of us here just sortof accepted them with good naturedresignation. And today even look backon them with some affection. Hadthere been a student revolt against therequirement in those days I'm afraid Iwould have had to plead nolo conten-dere.

But there wasn't. The programlimped along, doing the best it couldto emphasize sports that would carryover after a student had left college,but it was hard going. Until our alum-ni came through with the proud facili-ties we have today—alumni who hadsuch spartan conveniences when they

were here but wanted to make it bet-ter for those who came after them:Walter Teagle '00, Floyd R. Newman'12, Leroy P. Grumman '16, theanonymous alumni donor of LynahRink, the several alumni who madeMoakley House and the eighteen-holegolf course a reality.

Now, what has all that got to dowith the matter of dropping the physi-cal education requirement? Quite abit, I think. The dropping of the re-quirement I see as a threat to thevitality of the whole program ofphysical education and athletics, men'sand women's. Here's why:• Since 1950 the physical educationprograms have been receiving finan-cial support from the State of NewYork and from the School of HotelAdministration which will dry up ifthe physical education programs godown the drain. This year our depart-ment received $247,000 from theState of New York and $23,000 fromHotel, for a total of $270,000, on anaccessory instruction fee basis, fortheir students who took part in theclasses.

There will be only a small fractionin savings to compensate for this lossbecause our men's physical educationstaff consists of our athletic coachesand the full burden of their salaries,now prorated between the two divi-sions, will revert entirely to the athlet-ic division; the women's staff will haveto be about as large as it is now, if itsintercollegiate program is to continueand the recreational program is tooffer any variety of voluntary activi-ties, so few savings will be possible.• The women's athletic program,now flourishing, with fourteen sportsand 300 girls taking part, will be givena severe set-back because most ofthose on the intercollegiate teamslearned their sports at Cornell becauseso few high schools have competitivesports for girls. For instance our Cor-nell girls won the National Intercolle-giate women's fencing championshipsthis past winter, and three of the fourgirls on the team learned their fencing

at Cornell, starting in the physical ed-ucation program.• The men's athletic program willundoubtedly be cut back even more.During the past two years twelve fresh-men sports were dropped and fourvarsity sports (sailing, squash, rifle,and skiing) were cut to half support.With $166,000 less to work with insalary from physical education there isbound to be even more severe curtail-ment.• In 1972-73 there were 3,100 fresh-men and sophomore men and 2,300women in the required program.There were 3,500 upperclass under-graduate men who worked out regu-larly and 3,000 once in a while; and600 women regularly, 300 occasional-ly. There were 1,400 men who cameout for men's intercollegiate teamsand 300 women. There were 9,200baskets in use at Teagle Hall and 2,-275 at Helen Newman. Many of thosewho worked out voluntarily did so be-cause they learned to play and enjoycertain sports of their own choosing inthe PE program.• There were 800 faculty and staffmen who paid the fee to use TeagleHall and 110 faculty and staff womento use Newman, but they will findthem quite a bit less suitable if therequirement is dropped because thetime of use of the buildings cannot bestructured to leave the hours of 12-2p.m. free for faculty use, as they arenow. The 12-2 period and 4-6 periodwill surely be uncomfortably over-crowded, as they are at Yale and Rut-gers, since they dropped the PE re-quirement five years ago. (There weresome other colleges that droppedthe requirement about this same time.However, a recent Eastern CollegeAthletic Conference survey showed 83per cent of the conference's 212 mem-ber colleges still retain the require-ment.)• The above-cited statistics shouldgive support to the fact that the massof humanity—very nearly the entireuniversity community—which uses ourfacilities together is a sociological in-


fluence on this campus. All elements ofour society are now brought togetherin wholesome, healthful activity,providing a synchronization hard toachieve in any other way. It won'thappen again, at least in any suchnumbers, if the requirement goes. AtYale only 30 per cent of the freshmenstudents now use Payne Whitney gym-nasium.

The PE requirement is not exactlyan onerous one. One may choose hisor her sport in season. Virtually allofferings are of the life-time variety,and one may fulfill the requirement bytaking just forty-two hours a year.Equivalent to about one work-week.Even to those who find physical exer-cise obnoxious that's not a greatpenance.

It would be helpful to know if theprogram has really achieved as muchas we like to think it has. Maybe it'sbeen absolutely useless to our discipleswho went through it. We have no wayof knowing. Our alumni just don'twrite us about their PE experiencethe way they do about the footballteam.

I did have an experience a shorttime ago that was an unexpectedboost. It may appear to be a phony,self-serving episode, but believe me itactually happened.

It was a rainy, blustery day in NewYork City when I came out under thecanopy at 30 Rockefeller Plaza afteran appointment there and I was aboutfifteenth in the waiting line for a taxi.When it finally came my turn I turnedto the lady behind me and asked if shemight be going in my direction. Shewas and we clambered into the cabtogether.

I introduced myself and she askedme where I was from and I told herand mentioned proudly that I workedat Cornell University. She lit up. Herson was a sophomore there and inanswer to my question she said he wasgetting along splendidly, and she wenton—she was quite a voluble lady—that her son was an excellent studentbut had always been terribly shy (he

must take after his dad, I thought)and non-social until lately, for whichshe will always be grateful to Cornell.

The thing that got him out of hisshell, she exulted, was golf. He hadnever played the game even thoughshe and her husband play regularlyand are members of their local coun-try club, her son could not be per-suaded. But he had to take PE atCornell, she rattled on, so he thoughthe might just as well take golf. Heloved it, and showed quite an aptitudefor it. He even played at the club lastsummer, made new friends, and hiswhole personality has opened up.

About that time the taxi arrived atmy destination (at Third and 50th),the Cornell Club, and I was paying

the fare up to that point, and as Ihurried away in the rain she shoutedout the cab's window: "What do youdo at Cornell?"

"I'm director of physical educationand athletics," I shouted back.

"You are?! Why didn't you say so.Thanks! Oh, thank you," were herparting words.

That may have been just an unusualcase. It was a good one to hear, nev-ertheless.

I hope Jon Anderson [director ofPE&A] doesn't mind me referring tomyself as the director of the depart-ment. I just don't seem to have themetabolism to be able to call myselfdean.

Cornell's only national sports champions last year are its women's fencing team of(from left) Laura Budofsky '74, Mary Sebring '73, and Kathy Stevenson '75.Stevenson was named the outstanding woman college fencer, and she, Sebring,and Walbridge were named All-Americans. Coach Raoul Sudre '60 was namedcoach of the year for the second year. Assistant coach Jean-Jacques Gilletwas an honorable mention. Cornell had won the title before in 1930 underGeorges Cointe, in 1967-69 under Michael Sebastiani, and 1972 under Sudre.

Also there was the VanCleef endowedMemorial Dinner for all alumni of 50 yearor older classes at Willard Straight Saturday.Dean Parsons of the College of Architecturewas the speaker on "Andrew D. White asArchitect," by influence, not actually on thedrafting board.

And news of an earlier event: At theannual meeting of the National Associationof Management Consultants at the HotelMarriott, Chicago, May 3, 4 and 5, RoscoeEdlund a member of NAMC's governing bd,was a speaker concerning his own experi-ences in that field.

Art Museum. Contrary to opinions formedby many based upon viewing of renderings,plans and the model, this building is amagnificent monument, ascending on top ofthe knoll at the northeast corner of theCampus (formerly occupied by Morse Hall).It fits the site well and does not impinge onthe roadways or other buildings. The plan isexcellent, affording numerous galleries and asculpture court, all of which are well-lightedwith an enormous amount of wall and floorspace for the fine exhibits. A major exhibitwas a collection of outstanding 15th and16th Century Prints of Northern Europefrom the National Gallery of Art loaned byLessing Rosenwald '12. The Class is proudto announce that Dr George Winter, PhD'40 Class of 1912 Prof of Engineering, anintern authority on concrete and recipient ofmany national honors, has been dis-tinquished again, having been named tohonorary membership in the Amer* Soc ofCivil Engineers.

Well, the 60th Reunion of our Class of1913 is now a thing of the past. We havehad our get-together, we have renewed oldfriendships and made new ones, we havelooked for familiar buildings and foundcountless other new ones, and have nowreturned to our normal life at home.

The Reunion officially opened on a


Thursday but many came a day early. Wehad a mighty good turnout,—40 '13 menand 6 '13 women. In addition there were 20wives and other family members there,which made a total group of 66 people. Sowe had quite a gang. We were quartered inMary Donlon Hall. After cocktails there ourbanquet Thursday night was in the StatlerInn. Les Clute presided and it was strictly aclass affair, for the election of class officers,etc. Freddie Norton, our top exec for manyyears, was elected pres; Vic Underwood, vpand Reunion chmn; Joe Ward, treas; andyours truly, sec and ALUMNI NEWS Corre-spondent. In as much as there are no moreofficial reunions scheduled, making it difficultafter this Reunion to get together to fill avacancy if one occurred, it was voted thatfrom now on, in the event we lost anofficer, the remaining officers would carryon the class affairs without making anyreplacement, moving up in rank as required.

Friday afternoon our 13 group attended adedication ceremony of a new trail in theCornell Plantations. Bud Allen, who passedaway in Oct 1971, had always been deeplyinterested in Cornell Plantations and his willprovided a legacy for the Plantations. Inmemory of our Bud, they are building a newtrail in the Plantations, to be known as"The Leon Ballard Allen Trail." The cere-mony was held on the first completed sec-tion and we gathered at a memorial plaqueon the trail. Short talks were made by Rich-ard M Lewis, Sp Ag Plantation Director,Allan H Treman '21 for the Sponsors,William H Tourison, a close friend of Bud'sand Thomas W Mackesey Grad, vp. It washeld in a beautiful spot and it was veryimpressive.

President Dale Corson and his wife joinedus at our cocktail hour in Donlon Hallbefore our dinner Friday night in Sage. BobKane, '36 director of athletics, 'was thespeaker at the banquet and made an interest-ing talk.

The Saturday night banquet was againheld in Sage. Vic Underwood presided. Atthis final gathering we drank a toast toFreddie Norton. He had been all packed andready to go to our Reunion when suddencirculation trouble in his leg prevented hisleaving. He had been Reunion chmn forpractically all of our Reunions and it was acruel blow for him not to be able to attendour last one, the 60th. In addition to thetoast to him, everyone had signed a greetingcard to be sent to Freddie to cheer him upand let him know we missed him.

That about wraps up the Reunion. Therewere of course many additional meetings.All luncheons were held in Barton Hall andthere were Reunion Forums, guided tours ofthe campus, (you need a guide nowadays tofind your way around the campus), ArtMuseum, track meet, etc that many attend-ed. I have just tried to list the '13 groupevents. So, so long for now. You will con-tinue to be hearing from me in the '13column, so that news of any kind will benecessary and will be highly appreciated.

The Class of '13 can be especially proudof Jane McKelway Urquhart, who has justcompleted twenty-five years of teaching atSt. Stephen's School in Alexandria, Va. Shestarted teaching only after she had educatedher grown sons. The Headmaster, Rev. Em-met Hoy, says that, "she is probably themost respected teacher in this boys' schoolover the years." She was mainly responsiblefor Latin, but taught English and Theologyas well. The School held a, reception in herhonor in June, where she was presented witha gold pendant cross engraved with thename of the school and the dates of herservice there. —Ed.

The annual spring dinner of our class(Addicks Dinner) was held at the CC inNYC, May 15th. Unfortunately Walt Ad-dicks could not attend as he was in the Yalehospital at the time. Am pleased to reportthat he is out and at his summer residencein New Preston, Ct. Those attending wereBishop, Buck, Goldman, Howell, Lewis,Munns, Murray, Myers, Rice, Riegelman,Sher, Smith, Stone and Ward with a 1913guest R J Raush.

As usual the conversation and discussionswere lively. The next day Morris Bishop waselected to membership in the Nat Inst ofArts and Letters founded in 1899. This wasindeed a high honor as membership is lim-ited to fifty US scholars in the field ofliterature. Congratulations to Morris.

When Lossίng Buck was teaching in Chi-na about 1935 using his students as informa-tion gatherers he compiled a detailed bookor books covering 131 locations in Chinadetailing their agricultural facilities. This isnow being republished as the only authorita-tive book of its kind and of tremendousvalue to the further development of China.

Carl Ward made a most interesting talkabout the tremendous installation Norad hasin Colo and its effectiveness in the defenseof the USA. He also spoke of the univ—theimportance of ROTC and the importantresearch being done at the Cornell Lab inBuffalo (altho this is no longer part of theuniv). Carl is always interesting—a loyalCornellian and a fine citizen.

Harold Riegelman made a special plug forour 60th Reunion. All who attended the din-ner expected to attend the Reunion.

Martin F. Scanlon, Wash, DC wrote BillMyers enclosing a check for his class dues$7.00 plus an additional $100—for the classfund. A most generous gift. Reports attend-ing the British Air Show last Sept—then onto Madrid. A busy interesting trip.

Cornell's campus vibrates again to theimpact of new bodies of young undergrade

and older bodies of alumni (circa 1915) allpreparing for genial Homecoming gatheringsnext month. These will feature sports andpastimes, faculty meetings and "reminis-cence" parties. Class officers will be aroundto promote our big 60th Reunion, appointaction committees, secure satisfactory ac-commodations, class hqs etc. Following ex-tensive summer vacations ranging from Can-ada to Cape Cod, Europe and Africa plusMexico and the Caribbean, Chmn ClaudeWilliams, Treas Dick Reynolds, Secy Art Wil-son, Council members and your Correspond-ent will invite you to come and swap truetravel stories.

As for political headlines—Washington?Watergate? Tornadoes? and Inflation short-ages?—the best comment from a Cornellianwas "Water, water everywhere! And none ofit fit to drink!"

Let's cool it, play good football and geton with the business of living better. Cornelloffers plenty of courses in usable knowledgefor young and old. We understand somenew additions will prove to be sensational.

Among them is the new program for legaleducation recently announced by Roger CCramton, new dean-elect of the Cornell LawSchool. The Samuel S Leibowitz Professor-ship of Trial Techniques is a Chair namedfor 1915's distinguished Judge of the Su-preme Court of NY State, who presided overKings County Court and the NY State Su-preme Court, 2 of the nation's busiest majorcriminal courts, until his retirement in 1970.Leibowitz is regarded as one of the mostsuccessful criminal lawyers of all time. Hegained internat fame in the Scottsboro casewhich marked the end of exclusion of Ne-groes from Southern juries and saved 9Negro defendants from the death sentence.Before 1941, when he began to serve on thebench, Judge Leibowitz defended more than100 clients, losing only one to the electricchair.

In making the announcement Cramtonsaid the new program will include class-room instruction and clinical work involvingactual courtroom experience. He reportedthat many eminent jurists shared JudgeLeibowitz's views, including U S SupremeCourt Chief Justice, Warren Burger, whowas quoted as saying that "this effort of theCornell Law School to involve the best triallawyers and judges in the teaching of trialpractice . . . is a badly needed step in theright direction."

of the Leibowitz chair by a series of hisgifts, our donor classmate emphasized: "Thistraining in fact-gathering and trial tech-niques should become a major focus oflegal education." We Fifteeners who havebecome aware of his earnest and dedicatedviews on combatting crime on the streetsand securing law and order in the land,offer our sincere congratulations to him andto the Cornell Law School, from which hegraduated with honors 58 years ago, onthis great Memorial project.

Swapping stories at Reunion with themuch traveled Helen Comstock, SallyJackson and class pres Regina *Kerby,should be fun. Mrs Kerby has 12 grandchil-dren and is still planning a trip with herdaughter to Guatemala and the Yucatan.She is related through marriage to our re-spected treas. Dick Reynolds. Her daughteris his son's wife! The continuing interest ofour 1915 co-eds in class matters and campuschanges is most refreshing since many, likeMildred Watt Haff, are living in retirementin condominiums—and liking it.

The personal letter of Mildred Watt Haffto the women of the class made a very fa-vorable impression.

Our only sad note is the lengthening listof obituary notices. The latest was from thefamily of John Rogers of Laguna Beach,Cal. He died April 24th, adding another tothe 14 recorded in the past few months. Thisis a constant reminder of the truth of thephilosophy, "Every day you live well—you'rea winner." It is equally true that "Life isalways measured—from now on!" We arebetting on a quantity of good news formany Cornellians who are still going placesand doing things, during the next severalmonths. Don't forget our 60th in 1975 AndThe Nation's 200th anniversary in 1976.Hasta Entonces!

year with a clambake on the Oakland Estuary. Some 175 Cornellians were present

at the outdoor gathering, assisted by beer and a "cook-your-own-steak" setup.

the tattered banner was salvaged for posterity.

"One of the best Reunions if not the bestwe ever had," seemed the unanimous verdictof the 91 men, women and spouses whowere on hand for the 55th Reunion of theclass.

1918 highlights: Most impressive was thededication ceremony in the John S Knightlounge of the Class of 1918 Hall. CornellPres Dale S Corson did the didicatίon.Class Pres Elbert P Tutile made the presen-tation. Dagmar S Wright, 1918 women'srep, and Paul C Wanser, 1918 men's rep forthe Cornell Fund, made introductory re-marks. Reception and dinner that eveningin foyer of Alice Statler Auditorium. CharlesG Muller and Paul P Miller were listed inthe program as presiding at the festivities.

I quote from the program: "the residencehall is named "Class of 1918 Hall" inrecognition of the outstanding support givento the university by the men and women ofthat class on the occasion of the 55thanniversary of their graduation from Cor-

nell. In striving to make an exceptional giftto the university, the Class of 1918 estab-lished a record for all Reunion classes."Over half a million dollars.

In keeping with the "now" spirit of theclass of 1918, men and women lived in thesame dormitory. It was like a big happyfamily. Continental breakfast served everymorning in the dormitory lounge. Courtesyof 1918 women. The women were the men'sguests at class dinner. And . . . breaking allprecedents (as far as we know), men andwomen of 1918 had their picture taken asone group.

To test the optimism of the eighteeners,your correspondent posted a notice on thelounge bulletin board reading: "Reservenow for 60th Reunion. Sign Below!" 49signed up.

With Les Fisher at the piano many happyhours were enjoyed singing old songs of ourundergrad days. Believe it or not, some ofour septuagenerians exhibited considerablespryness in tripping the light fantastic.

Deep-felt admiration was generally ex-pressed for the work of Paul Miller, who,with some help from Lou Freedman han-dled the organization and the thousand-and-one arrangement details of the reunion withhis usual quiet efficiency and dedication.

Jack Knight, editorial chirm of KnightNewspapers stirred up a heated discussionon The Public's Right to Know a panelprogram, which he moderated. The livelygive-take among the distinguised panelmembers made for a stimulating Sat morn.Eighteeners attended in full force.

Parting Sun AM was such sweet sorrow."Let's not wait 5 years, let's do it againsoon," was the general feeling. "Let'shope," says your correspondent.

What a wonderful reunion! At our 10-yearone, I was amazed to see alumni back for a55-year reunion. How could such elderlybeings enjoy it? The answer is, if you canget around at all, you'll love it!

This picture shows 8 of 18 women whocame: Kay McMurray Benson, LouiseBentley—with Jane Foster in front of her—Ida Purpura Chirico, Dagmar Schmidt


Wright, Emily Reed Morrison, MarianSelden Graves, and Sister Mary PatriciaBrown. You see our red tote bags with white"55th" proclaiming our status. These numer-als are removable; and the reverse of thebag is red, green, and blue, appropriate forsummer use.

About 50 men attended, plus a number oftheir wives, so, at dinner Fri there were atleast 90—not bad for a 55th reunion. We"co-eds" thank the men, who arranged thedinners and barbecue, and provided a spe-cial bus to convey us to special events likethe dedication of our "Class of 1918 Hall."All events were joint ones, including contin-tental breakfasts in our lounge at HurlburtHouse, which Dagmar supervised on behalfof the women. I took several pictures, whichwill appear in due time. We renewed oldacquaintances and made warmer friendshipswith some we had not known well before.

The second picture shows 3 of the Classofficers: Judge Elbert P Turtle, pres; MildredStevens Essick, vp; Paul Miller, treas. Seatedis Louise Bentley, holding a bag to identifythe group! Charles Muller, elected secy,could not be found when this picture wastaken.

These officers were proposed by the nomi-nating comm and elected unanimously at theFri dinner. They are officers for the wholeclass.

Hurlburt House is in the background ofthese pix; it's a comfortable, two-to-a-room-with-bathroom lodging, where the mngrmade us welcome and his two assts tried tomeet our every need. The air-conditioninghelped a lot.

Among earliest arrivals were Jane Foster,Mildred Essick, Kay Benson, and Dagmar.We came Wed, and Mildred, Reunion chmn,set up hq in her room, with Dagmar andKay across the hall. Regrets came fromEdith Rulifson Dilts, hit by flu just as shehoped to start for Ithaca, and from DorothyDelahunt Prescott of Ft Lauderdale, Fla,who broke a hip the week before Reunion.We do hope that both Edith and Dorothyare mending satisfactorily, as well as otherswho did not feel able to come.

Thursday's barbecue, on the lawn in therear of Hurlburt House, was a gay affair. Bythis time many others had appeared, includ-ing Joanna Donlon Huntington and hus-

band Jim, Isabelle Hoag Van Tyne, andMarion Selden Graves. In the lounge areception committee (informal) greeted allcomers and proclaimed their arrival.

Most of us had spent part of Thurs seeingthe new art museum and the restoration ofMorrill Hall, and going on tours (I went outto Sapsucker Woods). But everyone allowedtime for just sitting around and talking.Breakfasts in the lounge were a great timefor chatting.

Anne Selkirk Brown flew from NYC,being met at Ithaca's airport by her daugh-ter Ann (Mrs Richard Starke *51), who haddriven to Ithaca from her home in EastAurora. Ann made a welcome and good-looking addition to our group; more abouther family in another column. On Sat shetook off for E Aurora, being replaced by herfather, Richard Penfield Brown. He at oncebecame a favorite "husband" for our 1918women.

The dedication of "Class of 1918 Hall"on Friday was the high point of the reunionfor many of us. Look for pictures and adescription of this in the main pages of thisissue. We are proud to have raised almosthalf a million dollars for the Cornell Fundthis year and to see "Class of 1918" on oneof the Cornell dormitories. One lounge inthe hall is named for John S Knight; asecond lounge is named for our own Jane MG Foster. Both were generous contributors tothe Fund.

More about our reunion in the next issue!

We acknowledge with thanks the receiptof a package of 1919 letterheads from theAlumni office. They came just in time as oursupply was exhausted and we were startingto cut up supermarket bags to use for corre-spondence.

In the June issue of the NEWS we at-tempted to give a complete roster of Ί9ersliving in Fla. Imagine our surprise andchagrin in finding that we had not listedAaron Kaufman, one of our most activemembers in class affairs. When he lived inElizabeth, NJ, he was a regular attendant atour NY class luncheons and dinners. TheKaufmans live at 2505 South Ocean Blvd,Palm Beach, Fla. We are sorry to reportthat Mrs Kaufman has been invalided inrecent weeks and hope she is convalescingsatisfactorily.

Stella and Charles Lerner celebrated their50th Wedding Anniversary in June. Charleshad a slight stroke in 1969 but has improvedconsiderably and his ambulation is satisfac-tory, but his left arm and hand have beenslow to improve. The Lerners have beentaking a number of short trips in recentmonths. The laboratories have been turnedover to their son, Stuart, a graduate chemist.

Anna and Richard Brown celebrated their50th Wedding Anniversary Aug 30 at ValleyStream, LI. During the past three years theBrowns have been about the most activetravelers in our entire class.

Golden Wedding Anniversaries are some-thing special in our estimation. It happensonly once, and then only if you are verylucky.

We received a nice, newsy letter fromElmer Loveridge of Oswego a long time agoand never did answer it, as far as we canfind. One thing that attracted our attentionat this time was he wrote in midwinter fol-lowing an immense snow storm. Now we areacknowledging it during a heat wave. Elmerwas meteorologist at Oswego for many yearsprior to his retirement.

We are sorry to report that Eugene WBeggs, Glen Ridge, NJ, our Reunion chmn,suffered a mild coronary. After being hospi-talized he made good recovery and by thetime you read this Gene should be on theactive list again.

A note from Dick Touissaint reports thathe and Helen are enjoying their retirementto the fullest at Boca Raton, Fla. At onetime Mt Vernon boasted a number of Ί9ers.Now there are none. Dick and your scribewere the last to pull out.

Paul N Boughton of Middletown is stillselling real estate and farms in OrangeCounty but prices are so high that onlybuilders and speculators can afford to buy.So he has begun to try to find moderatepriced farms to sell in Upstate NY. He haslined up a few good ones from 200 to 1,200acres. Paul had intended to let up a little butthe market is so good his intentions have allgone down the drain.

Capt Leland F Noble of Falls Church, Vais another classmate active in real estate. Hehas been selling real estate since he retiredfrom the navy in 1959. He enjoyed two tripsto Europe last year and is looking forwardto another this year. His son, Leland, Jr, isvp of No Carolina Natl Bank in Charlotte,and is an active aviator as was his dadbefore he became too old.

Edward L Duffies suffered a mild strokein '69 and is still under his doctor's care.No golf for the time being, and perhaps nomore. His wife, Flo, had to go to thehospital during his siege there but both aregetting around now and showing signs ofimprovement, we are happy to report.

At time of going to press we have noofficial announcement concerning the Octo-ber luncheon at the NYCC but we arecertain there will be one. So keep your eyeopen for the postman and your ear to theground, and you will get announcementwhatever way it comes.

Our 55th Reunion is hastening toward us,and with that in mind 3 of your officers,Frances Knight, pres, Helen Billiard, Re-union Chmn, and the writer took the oppor-tunity to attend reunion in June to discusssome plans. Betty Cook Myers, treas, wasunable to join us.

The prime mover in class unity, MikeHendrie, pres of '19 Men, who reunes everyyear, joined us at the class officers' breakfastFri AM, and we reached some conclusionswhich should bring '19 into line with allclasses from earlier years to the present.

The outcome of our meeting was the letteryou will have received from Frances and afollowing message from Mai Beakes, treas of'19 Men, furthering our class unification. Itis our sincere hope that these letters willhave the desired result.

With the business of the occasion behindus, we proceeded to enjoy the rest of theweekend, aided by good weather. After theBarton Hall luncheons, where we met many'18 friends, we stopped at some of thebooths staffed by members of the variouscollege faculties, took campus tours, andindulged in some nostalgic walks, includingcrossing the swinging bridge. A high point,literally, was a tour of the new museum. Allof the exhibits were praiseworthy; but to usthe 5th-floor unobstructed view in every di-rection was the most notable feature. Don'tmiss this whenever you are in Ithaca!

Saturday evening we were joined at dinnerby Norma Regan, who had come to Ithacato participate in Council meetings. Afterthat came the rally, the memorial service atSage Chapel Sunday morning, and anotherReunion was history.

The question is not who will be the candi-date in 1976—but who all will be present atour 55 th Reunion in 1975! Does it seem toosoon to talk about it now? Well the wordcomes to us from all parts of the globe thatit isn't—the time is right!

Our genial and energetic Reunion ChmnHo Ballou proved this point by making apersonal contact with practically every livingclassmate during the summer—a Herculeantask! More than 400 copies of Cornell inPictures—the First Hundred Years were sentto all classmates through cooperation withQuill & Dagger Society as a giή from theReunion Comm. Preceding the mailing Howrote a personal note to each—handwrittentoo—hoping to encourage the recipient todefinitely decide to return in '75. Thepromptness and volume of the "thank you"notes was overwhelming. Almost to a manthey expressed the hope and desire to join usat the 55th. We had the privilege of lookingover these letters—a most enjoyable task.We wish we could repeat all of them—wehave gleaned some interesting items whichwe pass on to you.

First off Teddy and Ho Ballou in the"marry" month of June celebrated their50th Anniversary spending their honeymoonat Skytop Club in the Pocono Mts insteadof going to Ithaca. It was pretty difficultfor Ho to miss the CRC Reunion, but thiswas a very important occasion. Our Con-gratulations! Several hundred friends andrelatives dropped by June 1st to cheer Dot-tie and Walt Archibald on their GoldenWedding day at a reception in their honorat the family home in White Plains. Lateron the family gathered at Lake Mohunk fora delightful vacation together. Then Dottieand Walt took off on QΈ II for Englandand Scotland to go over the same route theyhad traveled 50 years earlier. By now theyare back and busily preparing to move intotheir new home at 20 Oxford Rd, WhitePlains. Never a dull moment!.

Nothing in the world could have stirredthe memories, caused the comments or re-kindled the Spirit of Cornell in so manybreasts as Cornell in Pictures referred toonly as "the book." Bill Schmidt Fairmont,W Va, found himself on p 71 with the"cadet corps pitching tents on the Quadran-gle." BiU intends to circulate the book amongCornellians in his area and although on asemi-restrictive list plans to be at the 55th.John Stockett, Arlington, Va, a "southpawpitcher" recalls practice sessions with HoBallou as the catcher. John also showed upon p 71 carrying the colors as a frosh in1917. Dud Merrill, E Patchogue, plans togive the book Xo the guidance dept of thelocal hs, and expects to join us in '75.

Harold Fuller has spent well over half acentury on the ancestral acres at Groton, inthe family since 1835, each succeeding gen-eration enjoying the happiness and content-ment as their forbears. His grandson Haroldentered West Point in July. The bookbrought back memories of his chem I classwith Ho in old Morse Hall. He'll be back!

John MacDonald arrived home in Du-buque from 3 exciting weeks in Hong Kongand Japan in time to receive and enjoy thebook and glad to see the Reunion comm atwork. John Latta also returned to his "Hap-py Hollow" home in Omaha after an exten-sive visit to Japan, - Taipei, Manila,Singapore, Bangkok, Hong Kong andHonolulu—an interesting trip but not moreso than his perusal of the book.

Having received Ho's advance notice,

George Stanton was profuse in thanks whilewaiting for the book to be forwarded fromBoca Raton to Boiestown, NB, where heand Ruth fish and fish from May to Sept.George also raises a few vegetables for achange of diet and 300 spruce Christmastrees which he hopes to harvest in 1975 andthen can afford our 55th Reunion. (Weshould be as broke as Geo $tanton!)

Jom Carney sends greetings from nearJemseg, NB. Says he's not near but inhalessame air as Stanton. Those "herring chock-ers" are about 50 miles apart, and shouldshare their fishing tales some week end.

This is the end—but all too soon!

Dorothy Dodds Slaughter (Mrs Scott)writes that the address for her in the MayNEWS was incorrect. The correct address ofthe new home is 418 No Lucerne Blvd, LA90004. Sorry, Ted. She writes: "So youthink I'm moving in the wrong direction togo from an apt to a house. Well, afterspending all my life in a house the aptseemed too close to others." As an instanceof the confusion the error in address caused,Ted says: "I even had a call last eveningfrom an old beau on the strength of thepiece in the CA NEWS. The address con-fused him too, but the phone company wasable to give him the right one and thenumber. Wonderful institution, that."

Mary Hoyt, en route home after a familyvisit in Pensacola last winter, 'stopped inAtlanta to see Alice Erskine.

At the Tower Club dinner in NY in May,Frances Hankinson '27, from Staten Iswhere Alice used to live, inquired whatnews I had of Alice, and I had to replythat I had no recent news although shesometimes did write to me. How about it,Alice? What did you do this summer?

From Marion Fisher Filby (MrsEllsworth) '19 comes the sad news of thedeath May 2 of our classmate, FrancesOttley Karr. Frances underwent major sur-gery in Feb and was unable to recover"despite," as Marion wrote, "her great effortand indomitable spirit." She surely was oneof the most active of us. The Kansas CityStar, recounting her interests, listed so manyactivities that space here does not permittheir enumeration. Notwithstanding hermany years of residence in Kansas City,Frances was brought home to rest in SenecaCastle.

While in NY in May, I had a goodtelephone visit with class Prexy Alice Calla-han Jensen, who reports that she is feelingmuch better these days; although still report-ing regularly to her doctor. This is the yearfor 50th anniversary celebrations in the Jen-sen family. Husband Leif (MD '23) wasguest of honor of the Staten Island MedAssoc in June in tribute to his 50 yrs ofactive practice in that community. In Sept,in celebration of their 50th wedding an-niversary, Alice and Dr Leif were beinghonored at a party given by their childrenand grandchildren.

Gene Krey Loomis, from whom we heartoo seldom, writes that she and GenevieveSprague '19 enjoyed a 2-wk cruise last win-ter in the Caribbean on the Norwegian SS"Sun Viking," which was "a very pleasantbreak from the weather in the Midlands."After a few days in Fla, Gene went withGenevieve to the latter's home in Memphis"to enjoy the first certain signs of spring—daffodils and dogwood in bloom."

Alice McNulty Vieweg says that "our oneand only" was married in Feb, and that thenewlyweds are living in nearby Detroit,where Robert practices law. The Viewegslive in Grosse Pointe.

Martin and I are again at the LakePlacid Club in the Adirondacks for thesummer. We shall be staying east until atleast mid-Sept, in order to join others of thefamily in honoring the 50th wedding an-niversary of my sister, Joanna Donlon Hunt-ington '18. Then back home to Arizona.

Class columns ordinarily do not includeobituary notices but when a person hasdone so much for a Class as has JoeMotycka we must record his passing with aspecial note of distinction. Joe died on June6, 1973 in Coventry, Ct. We shall all misshis quarterly letters which carried that sparkso typical of him.

Tom Bissell has accepted the appointmentof Newsletter Editor and his qualificationspromise a continuation of the '22 news toall our classmates in the years ahead. Goodluck, Tom, and may the news pour in as inpast years.

Ned and Ivy Kennedy are now visiting inEngland for a few weeks, having had acalm and enjoyable crossing on the greatship, QE II.

We have recently received a copy of acitation written by a friend concerning HallBarrett on his completion of fifty years inthe ministry. Hall spent some of his years inUtah, New York, Tennessee, and Alabama.He is still active and going strong in his lifework.

Bill Dodge and Joe VanValkenburgh arecontinuing their joint effort in naming allthose seated in our Class photo taken inBarton Hall in June 1972. You will see the

results of their noble efforts within a fewweeks. They were not helped very much bythe Cornellian published in 1922 as there islittle resemblance to those in their senioryears. Judge for yourself!

The dedication of the Herbert F Johnsonmuseum was a gala event as you will readelsewhere in this issue. It was a joy to seeΉίb' present for the occasion- and heseemed to enjoy it thoroughly. The remarksby our spokesman, Dave Dattelbaum, weremasterful and appropriate. Hib was reallytouched by many of the talks but by nonemore than Dave's. Those from '22 were Edand Ivy Kennedy, George and Verna Nay-lor, Tom Bissell, Ted and Anne Baldwin,Bill and Doris Williams, Chape Condit andTed Buhl. It was an impressive affair andthe museum is just out of this world in itsarchitecture and content.

Well, we broke a record. We had thelargest attendance of women (62) at a 50thReunion ever, and our class won all theawards. And what an interesting, well-planned Reunion it was, with its varioustours and forums, the beautiful new Mu-seum of Art, the heart-lifting singing ofthe Glee Club, and best of all, the renewingof long-ago friendships!

The first event of our own was the jointdinner Fri night for '23 men and womenand spouses. At the preceding cocktail par-ty, there was a brief moment of panic—thepunch arrived at the last minute, the com-mittee was nowhere to be seen, and EdGouinlock stepped in like Sir Galahad topull the punches—spiked and non-spiked—into action. Pres Corson was our speaker atdinner in the Statler, which gave us awelcome opportunity to hear and to knowhim. We were all late to arrive at theSavage Club show, which undoubtedlycreated a sensation with our stately, vener-ble looks.

Picture shows post-mortem after Cornelliananight: Helen Northup, Gladys Barkley Wig-sten, Billie Foulks Hottle, Maurine BealsFerres, and Mabel McGIynn Hebel.

The '23 women's banquet at the Statlerthe next night was the delightful climax ofour Reunion. Beforehand, however, we hada punch party at Mary Donlon, duringwhich Adele Dean Mogensen called a briefclass meeting. The chief business was elec-tion of officers for the next five yrs, and asthe nominating committee came forth withthe 1968 slate, our officers were all re-elected. Adele Dean Mogensen is * pres,Mercedes Seaman Wrede is secy, FrancesVaughan Pringle is treas and HelenNorthup is ALUMNNI NEWS rep. We had in-

vited the wives of the '23 men to join us atour banquet, while the men had their stagdinner, and 53 of them came. A happysurprise was the appearance of Lois Osborn'16, genl secy of YWCA and great friend ofall of us in our college years. Merce Wredewas mistress of ceremonies, Eddie SeveranceAndrews pointed to the similarities and con-trasts between these present times and 50years ago, and Kay Slater Wyckoff broughtback many memories of those days. AlindaCouper, our class musician, had composed


some songs for the occasion. Ruth Irish '22gave us a run-down on recent events atCornell of particular interest to women.After the banquet we all hurried over to thebig Reunion rally at Bailey Hall, where welearned of the awards, announced in ourabsence, for our record-breaking attendance.

At the '23 women's farewell breakfastnext morning (see photo), the plaques wereproudly displayed, a good note on which toend this most delightful Reunion.

A lot of people were responsible for thesuccess of the '23 women's events. GertNolin was gen chmn of the whole affair,and did a masterful job. Florence FosterDurkee was chmn for the program of ourbanquet, working with Eddie Severance An-drews, Alinda Burnham Couper, Emma Be-sig Savage, Rose Kurland Wolf and KaySlater Wyckoff. Florence Becker McCraryhad also been appointed to this committee,but her daughter sent word in Apr thatPolly had been visiting her in Calif and hadhad a fatal heart attack. This was shockingnews in the midst of the flurry of Reunionplanning. Gert Hicks Drake made all ar-rangements for the banquet, while MabelMcGlynn Hebel planned the Sunday break-fast. That punch party before the Sat nightbanquet was planned by Gladys WellarUsher, Laura Geer Goodwin and GladysBarkley Wigsten. The bulletin board withold photographs and snapshots, studied withso much interest by many people, was theproduction of Merce Seaman * Wrede. Shealso did a tremendous job on that newsletteryou got in Jan. Ruth Rice McMillan andJohn Vandervort manaεed the joint cocktailparty and dinner on Fri nights. Those lovelyflowers on the cocktail tables were broughtfrom Winifred BIy Robson's garden. Thecontinental breakfasts—that meager meal sotraditional in Old World countries—wereavailable at Mary Donlon and were ar-ranged for by Lib Doty Markin, Dot Sul-livan Duncan, and Mary Chipman Brittingwith an able assist from Lib's daughter,Anne Markin Bethune, Duke '48. FrancesVaughan Prinde handled the finances like aprofessional. Maurine Beaϊs Ferres and BH-lie Foulk Hottle chose those handsome redbags for our "uniform", supplemented withbig name-plates beribboned by Maurine. Toall these and others who worked andplanned, our warmest thanks, and to allthose who came and all those we missed—Auf Wiedersehen in '78!

Here is an entertaining promise fromFrank W Miller mailed Sept 23, 1972: "Ex-pect to be in Munich next month for amanagement meeting, and hope to be inAustria for a little vacation. Will send youa brief story, if an interesting one de-velops."

Roger Wrigley, bless him, -writes a pleas-ant, somewhat nostalgic note as follows"My wife and I lead a sedentary existence,achieving our vicarious 'kicks' from thedoings of our 2 daughters and 1

granddaugnter. They had a bonny Europeanadventure this past summer, combining airtravel over, bus tour of England, Belgium,Germany, Switzerland and France, andsailing back on the QE2. My granddaughterstarted her freshman year at William andMary—another defector in the family!—after the 2 girls making Mary Washingtontheir alma maters. My memories are stillvery vivid of our class as freshmen, and Iam sad when I come across the obits ofgreat guys like Charlie Cassidy. Hope youcan hold off mine until after June of "74."

A brief comment from Cecil A. Daleytells us he has been living in Charleston, SCfor the last 2 yrs (note dated 10/14/72) andhas been spending his summers in Cuta-chaque, LI. From Kenneth E Lawrence, asof 10/7/72, the following, "Retired as of Jan1, 1972 from my duties as supervisor inChautauqua County. Devoting my time nowto civic and church duties, with a hobby ofmany years of stamp collecting, a secondmarriage having taken place 3 yrs ago."Prior to Ken's retirement he took a 10-daytrip through the New England states, NovaScotia, Cape Breton and Prince Edward Is.

Fred Wood, our friend, received the fol-lowing interesting account dated Oct 10,1972 from Frederick E Burnham, "I'mmostly retired, but take care of EPPS AirSvce counter from 6 to 8 AM every dayand rent a small office from them. I'mflying a Mooney Super 21 with two co-partners. Enjoyed a trip to Syracuse and aweek with my son, who has a nice homeright on Lake Oneida at Constantia. Fallfoliage was at its peak—got some goodaerial photos. I now have 10 grandchildren;4 in Constantia, 5 in Atlanta, and 1 inJacksonville. Also visited Charlie Davis inCortland. He has survived 2 heart attacks,but is physically active, although he doeshave some trouble with his speech and istaking regular therapy for it.

After a dreary spring, the weathermanapparently was saving the good weather forReunion weekend. It was beautiful! A few24 women registered at Barton, but no gettogether had been planned. Mary Yinger,our class pres and Florence Daly, our Re-union chmn were bustling around gettingideas for our fiftieth. Mary and CarrollGriminger, our fund representative, rep-resented the women of our class and ac-cepted a citation for becoming a milliondollar class. The men were also there.

A goodlynumber, 29 to be exact, brought their wives,some brought their children, Bob Lengbrought his bride-to-be and Iz Farberbrought his young grandson, who hopefullywill attend Cornell some day.

Those who attended were Earle Adams,Ted Adler, Gibby Allen, Edgar Ayerill, Ful-ler Baird, Gene Balderston, Seward Baldwin,Lowell Bassett, Don Bates, Sam Blinkoff,Hank Boschen, Joe Chamberlain, Ira Degen-hardt, Van Des Forges, Wayne Dorland,Sam Etnyre, Iz Farber, John Fisher, KenFisher, Lym Fisher, Lee Forker, Lou Frei-denberg, Randy Frye, John Gatling, JulianGoble, Lou Gottlieb, Bill Graf, VicGrohmann, Gil Hart, Paul Harwood, JohnHawkins, Dick Hilary, Dutch Hoekelman,Tom Hopner, Ned Johnson, Francis Keiper,Walter Klein, Dick Kochenthal, FredKuehn, Bob Leng, Charlie Macbeth, JimMansfield, Al McAllister, Andy McOowin,Walt Meio, John Moor, Bud Mαrdock,Henry Page, Win Parker, Harry Piasecki,Gus Podboy, Nat Rubin, Irv Runey, RayRussell, Seward Salisbury, Gus Schumacher,Lew Seiler, Bill Sinclair, Cy Small, MaleSpecht, Jim Stack, Kip Statler, Steve Ste-vens, John Trussell, .

The highlight of the reunion was ourreunion dinner in the ballroom at Staler.The wives were invited and added a greatdeal to the festiveness of the occasion. LewSeiler, our first class pres, served as emceeand introduced many classmates and askedthem to speak. Among these were GilWehmann who was praised for his greatpersonal contribution and the fine work withthe Cornell Fund. Gil replied that the classhad done well but he still hoped to have ourclass equal or exceed the record of other45th reunion classes. Since then he has re-ported that the combined total for the menand women is the largest amount ever con-tributed by any 45th reunion class (beatingout '24). The amount our class contributedfor our 40th was also the largest and hasnot since been equalled. Lew then compli-mented Charlie Macbeth for doing a goodjob as reunion chairman. Your correspon-dent, the new class pres, urped the class todo something really meaningful for our 50threunion, perhaps endowing a chair or estab-lishing a class scholarship fund.

The Ithaca weatherman outdid himself toproduce bright blue skies, a warming sunmated with a refreshing breeze for our forty-fifth reunion. Thirty-nine of us made it backto exchange reminiscences, talk about futureplans and "catch up" on what has beenhappening at Cornell. Hazel Mercer, reunionchmn, masterminded a flawless program, en-thusiastically supported by class pres KattyAltemeier Yohn, and class sec MildredRosenberry Munschauer. At our banquettreas Ruth Lyon reported that we weresolvent enough to carry us along to our 50threunion. Katty, Mildred and Ruth were allre-elected as class officers. Hazel Mercer willbe vp, Betty Clark Irving will be our nextreunion chmn. She began making plansimmediately. May Elish Markewich agreedto be Estate Planning Chmn, which sayssomething about the age bracket we areentering. The name and address at the topof this column indicates that no one elsewould take the job of class correspondent.

Twelve to fifteen more had been planningto get back to Ithaca but could not make it.Among them was Louise Yale Windt, whowas coming all the way from Ashland, Oreand got as far as Salt Lake City and decidedthat the gas situation looked dubious enoughto keep them west of the Rockies. Inciden-tally, your Donkey's Tale editor apologizesto Louis and Έugenie Zeller. Louise is cor-rectly listed, but somehow or other, Eugenieacquired Louise's married name instead ofher own, which is Mrs Theodore Evans, andalso Louise's address. Eugenie lives in Kent,Ct 06757.

Other errors and address changes (theywill never be up to date for we seem to bemoving all the time these days) will appearin future class columns, but we shouldimmediately "reinstate" one of our mostdistinguished class members, DorothyLeffler, who somehow or other was left offthe list. After an exciting career in broadcast-ing Dottie is now retired and living in Flaat 1290 Spanish River Rd, Boca Raton33432.

We were in the new "high-rise" dormsnear Mary Donlon and the layout was con-ducive to informal "get-togethers." The ban-quet, at which Sunny Worden Carpenterpresided as toastmistress, was at the Statler.Helen Hart Gartlein, Nellie RightmeyerHamilton and Achsah Brill Taylor providedthe flowers for the tables. Marth Finch wasthe classmate who traveled the farthest toget to Ithaca, all the way from Berkeley, Ca.Saturday night we enjoyed a chicken barbe-cue under sunny skies in Mary Donlon Ct.Frequent busses provided easy transportationto and from events.

Each of us would probably come up withdifferent highlights of reunion. Number onewill always be the pleasure of seeing oldfriends and exchanging ideas. Since many ofus now live in metropolitan areas there is aspecial delίeht in the green spaces of thefeeling of "people without crowds." Every-one there shared a common interest too, aninterest in Cornell.

Most of us miss the presence of the stu-dents. Enough events are planned, however,to give one a little insiεrht into the intellectu-al endeavors of the University.

Let the Good Times Roll:A Preview ofIvy League Football, 1973

In This Special Section

The All-Ivy League Football TeamThe results of balloting by coaches, writers and sportscasters, theAll-Ivy team covers the era of recent greats, from the presentback to 1956, the year when formal Ivy League play began.

Betting Man's ChoiceAgain the League shows its flair for balance and unpredictability.Look for a change in recent patterns, with Dartmouth and Yalelosing some of their wonted edge and new sap rising at Brown.Yale is still a weak favorite for the title, but she will be severelytested by Penn and, possibly, Cornell.

The 1973 ScheduleWhen and where and who, with the heavy bouts duly noted.

It's easy to be delicate about Ivy League football, to apologizefor it, to compare it (in a gesture of over-generous honesty)unfavorably with the pros or the Big Ten. Let's not. Let's look atthe past (especially the recent past whose highlights are set forthin the All-Ivy teams found on the next page), and let's enjoythe game for what we know it is. With the names of Ivy greats inmind, we naturally come to the new season alert for fresh talentto fill out the next decade's All-Ivy roster. But we also comelooking for ourselves. Surprisingly, we often find what we wantin the magic renewal of games and seasons. As they have in thepast, once again let the good times roll.

This special section of information and advertising is appearingin six Ivy League alumni magazines. The section was preparedby Ren Frutkin (Yale Alumni Magazine) with generousassistance from the following: Brown (Jay Barry); Cornell(John Marcham and Charles Williams); Dartmouth (JackDeGange); Harvard (John Bethell and John Powers); andPrinceton (Lanny Jones). Designed by Nathan Garland.

Totals by Colleges: Brown (2), Columbia (5), Cornell (6),Dartmouth (10), Harvard (8), Penn. (2), Princeton (6),Yale (10)

Start with a backfield that generated more than 16,000 yardsof total offense, produced 202 touchdowns and includes thenation's all-time rushing leader.

Throw in a couple of ends who added 2700 yards with theirreceptions (and one has another season to play) while scoring 20more touchdowns.

And then there's the defense—a horde that shared in over 30shutouts during the highest scoring era in college football history.

This is the All-Ivy League football team selected for the years1956-72, the 17 seasons that eight Ivy colleges—Brown,Columbia, Cornell, Dartmouth, Harvard, Pennsylvania,Princeton and Yale—have been dueling in round-robincompetition. The team was selected this spring by 26 men whoare in the best position to judge the talent—the coaches, writersand sportscasters who have had virtually continuous contactwith Ivy League football since 1956.

The lone unanimous selection is Ed Marinaro, Cornell's All-America tailback who was a three-time All-Ivy choice from1969-71. Marinaro established Ivy League rushing and scoringrecords that will probably stand as long as Babe Ruth's homerun record. In the process, he set NCAA career and season rush-ing and scoring standards as*he became the nation's first collegianto run for more than 4000 yards. His greatest day was 281 yardsand five touchdowns against Harvard as a sophomore in 1969.He scored 52 touchdowns in three seasons and holds a dozen IvyLeague rushing and scoring records. He became the first non-

passer to win the Ivy total offense title as he averaged 196.4 yardsper game in 1971 while pacing Cornell to its only Ivy Leaguechampionship.

Joining Marinaro in the All-Ivy dream backfield are Yale'ssuperb halfback from 1966-68, Calvin Hill, plus CosmoIacavazzi, the high-flying fullback who led Princeton to anundefeated season in 1964.

The backfield includes two quarterbacks—Archie Roberts ofColumbia and Yale's latter day Merriwell, Brian Dowling.Roberts, who still holds the Ivy record for pass completionpercentage (.571), was the league's first three-time All-Ivy playeras he stirred Lion hearts as the top league passer from 1962-64.He edged Dowling in total points in the balloting but Yale'sversatile field general had more first team votes. Statistics don'tprovide accurate measure of Dowling's talents: After returningfrom a knee injury early in his sophomore season, Dowling neverlost to an Ivy League opponent in 1967 and 1968.

Hill ran for 1512 yards, averaged over 18 yards per catch with47 pass receptions (10 for touchdowns) and tossed six touch-downs passes off the halfback option. These credentials madehim the Dallas Cowboys' first round draft pick in 1969. Iacavazzichurned for nearly 1900 yards in three seasons and scored 31times (he was the Ivy scoring king in 1963 and 1964). His hur-dling touchdowns leaps were a devastating trademark a decadeago.

The quarterbacks: Dowling did it all. He gained over 2300yards by passing and added 590 more on the ground. The Yalescrambler passed for 30 touchdowns, ran for 11 and caughtpasses for two more. He was the guiding genius of an Eli attackthat averaged nearly 35 points per game for two years. Robertspassed for 3704 yards (29 TDs) and ran for another 475 yardsand 17 touchdowns. Now a doctor, Columbia's one-man ganghad an overall completion average of .591 (313 of 530), accuratetestimony of his ability to dissect defenses.

John Parry, who joins punter Joe Randall as Brown's repre-sentatives on the team, was second only to Marinaro in collectingvotes. A two-time All-Ivy end in 1963-4, Parry led the league inreceptions for three seasons.

Penn's talented end Don dune is one of the two active playersto make the first team on this all-star array (Cornell linebackerBob Lally is the other), d u n e surpassed Parry's reception yard-age record in two seasons and will probably move into Marinaro's"untouchable" range before he's finished. He's averaged over22 yards per catch for two years, a mark that is currently un-matched in the nation.

The most consistent votegetter among the offensive linemen isMike Pyle, center of Yale's undefeated Ivy champs in 1960 whowent on to play for a decade with the Chicago Bears.

While Dartmouth has used the league's most diversified offenseto help win nine Ivy League championships, the Big Green is theonly team that didn't put a player on the first offensive team.Defensively, however, Dartmouth set the pace with three men onthe first unit.

Stas Maliszewski, kingpin linebacker on Princeton teams thatwon 17 of 18 games in 1964-65, garnered the most points on thedefensive team (he's joined by Tiger halfback Keith Mauney onthe team). Maliszewski holds a slim edge in the voting over twoYale defenders, end Jim Gallagher and Tom Neville, the RhodesScholar tackle. Gallagher and Neville both won All-Ivy honorsin 1969 and 1970.

The second team's offensive backfield includes Marty Domres,the Columbia quarterback from 1966-68 who holds a dozen pass-ing and total offense records; Dartmouth's Jake Crouthamel, theIvy rushing leader in 1958 and the Green's current head coach;Gary Wood, Cornell's running quarterback who won the totaloffense crowns in 1962 and 1963, and Yale's three-time All-Ivyrunning back, Dick Jauron, the Elis' all-time rushing leader whoscored 28 times during the past three seasons.

Betting Man's Choice:Yale, Then Penn,Cornell, Dartmouth

Brown: Brown stands first among the Ivies alphabetically, butthe Bruins have had only one winning record in football in thelast fourteen years. Last season found them in last place, witha numbing 1-6 record. Things may change this year, however.Brown has a new coach in John Anderson, one of four Ivycoaches this season to have worked under Bob Blackman,formerly of Dartmouth and now at Illinois. Anderson came toBrown from Middlebury College, where in four seasons he wentfrom a 2-6 record to last year's 8-0. His appointment at Brownseems to reflect a new philosophy: "I feel Brown has made areal commitment to be competitive . . . , " says Anderson- "We'regoing to recruit just as hard as Dartmouth and the other schoolsin the league."

Brown has an unusually large number of veterans returning—32. Also, last year's freshman team went undefeated. Finally,Anderson is blessed with the presence of a fine quarterback inPeter Beatrace. As a sophomore, Beatrace led the Ivies in pass-ing. There is excellent depth at the quarterback slot, and the goodpassers have a good receiver in Jeff Smith.

The Bruins can also display some strength on the ground thisyear. Running back Hubie Morgan is a man to watch. A 6-foot,200-pound sophomore, he was the leading rusher on last year'sundefeated freshman team. With both speed and muscle,Morgan may be the breakaway threat Brown has lacked formany seasons.

A solid (230-pound average) offensive line will be the key toAnderson's multiple offense. Rounding out the offense is place-kicker Jose Violante, a soccer-stylist who is capable of makinggoals from the 50-yard line.

Brown's defense looks considerably less exciting, however,with the biggest problems in the defensive line. Linebacking andsecondary chores may be handled with competence, but thechances for elan in these departments look slim. All in all,don't look for miracles from Brown, but don't be surprised by adefinite change.

Columbia: Prospects for Coach Frank Navarro's light blue Lionsare dim again this year. They finished in sixth place last seasonand could go to the very basement of the League this time out.Navarro frankly admits, "I really don't know what to expect..."However, the Lions are still fierce in the defensive backfield,where co-captain Ted Gregory returns and will try to make theteam again the League's leader in pass defense. Columbia isalso strong at the end positions, both defensive and offensive.Mike Evans, a superb pass rusher at defensive end, is the team'sother co-captain. Mike Telep, a junior tight end, is an excellentpass receiver, a position where Columbia has terrific depth. Theirony of Columbia's season is that, with the loss of quarterbackDon Jackson, they don't have anyone (yet) to throw the footballto their array of talented receivers.

Cornell: The Big Red tied for third in the Ivy circuit last year,and will almost certainly be a title contender this year. With 29Ίettermen returning, the team has depth, experience, an especiallystrong defensive unit and a powerful backfield. Coach JackMusick (another Blackman disciple) will have a problem inrebuilding the offensive line to make holes for his array of run-

ners, and in finding receivers to catch the passes of senior quarter-back Mark Allen. Allen, a good runner and one of the leadingpassers in the East, lost all four of last year's receivers to gradu-ation, and six key linemen up front.

Elsewhere in the backfield, Dan Malone, last year's starter attailback in Cornell's I-formation, gained 913 yards during theseason. Malone's performance may be challenged by sophomoreDon Fanelli. At 6-2 and 210, he is already being hailed as asecond Ed Marinaro and he comes to the varsity from last sea-son's undefeated freshmen.

The defense, Cornell's forte last year, is led by All-East line-backer Bob Lally and middle guard Mike Phillips, a second-stringAll-East selection in '72. Some consider Lally Cornell's bestbacker since World War II.

Dartmouth: Dartmouth comes into '73 season with an impressiveset of credentials. Winning the Ivy title last year with a 5-1-1record extended the Big Green's string of championships in Ivyplay to four, an unprecedented achievement since formal Leagueplay began in 1956. In addition, composite Ivy standings since1956 show Dartmouth on top of the League with a winning per-centage of .769, about 100 points ahead of runner-up Princeton.The outstanding performance of the last two seasons has been thework of Coach Jake Crouthamel, another protege of BobBlackman.

This fall, Crouthamel will need all his good standing in formerglory, because Dartmouth will be fielding its most inexperiencedteam in 10 years. Only three starters return on defense and fouron offense. Despite heavy overall losses, Dartmouth remainsstrong at one position—running back. Halfback Rick Klupchakreturns after leading the Big Green in rushing for two straightyears, averaging six yards per carry. Fullback Ellis Rowe, asenior, also looks promising. Slowed by injuries last year, Rowecould blossom this fall.

Dartmouth's biggest problem is at quarterback. For the firsttime in 15 years, no experienced quarterbacks are returning.

Except for senior center Bob Funk and co-captain HerbHopkins at guard, the offensive line will be manned by inexperi-enced personnel. The defensive line will be anchored by co-cap-tain and two-time All-Ivy defensive end Tom Csatari, but al-together the Big Green defense has lost nine starters and threesecond team players. The outside linebacker position has beendecimated, and Dartmouth may be very weak in pass defensewith four top people in the secondary gone.

Harvard: Going into its 100th»season, Harvard is as unpredictableas New England weather. Last year it was a serious pretenderto the Ivy crown, but finished fifth with a record of 3-3-1.

Since then, coach Joe Restic has lost his offensive backfield,four centers, and three-quarters of his defense. Nasty rumorscirculate about Harvard nudging even closer to the bottom ofthe League standings. But Restic, now in his third year as coach,stakes all on being unpredictable. He promises more formations,more motion, and more players than were dreamt of by thefounding fathers of football.

Restic reclaims only 21 players this season. Notables includequarterbacks Stoeckel and Holt, ace passers; Bone and Mclnally,

ace receivers; Tsitsos, Dart, Leone, and Ed Cronin, runners;and Manna, Friar, Kircher, and Ferry, linemen. On defense,OΉare returns at tackle, Berger at end. They need help, andBerger's leg is uncertain. Tennant and Kristoff resume at line-backer, while St. Pierre, the captain, leads the deep backs.Harvard's sophomores move up from a freshmen team that had acreditable 4-2 record last year.

Restic is sticking with a slashing, gambling defense this year,but on offense admits that 'we've got to change our plan of attackin a basic way." The move will be from a breakaway, option-oriented style to ball control: "We haven't got a breakaway backback now, not one who'll give us the long play," admits Restic.

Pennsylvania: In a word, Penn looks very good this year. CoachHarry Gamble goes into his third season with 28 lettermenreturning, and with great strength in passing, rushing and receiv-ing. Penn could easily exceed its 3rd place, 4-3 standing in theLeague last year, and is a definite title contender.

The Quakers have two good quarterbacks in Marc Mandel andTom Pinto. Mandel is the better runner, Pinto the better passer.But both are good passers—last season Mandel threw the ballfor 694 yards and Pinto for 418.

Each quarterback has an excellent target for his passing attackin senior Don Clune, an All-Ivy end who racked up 646 yardslast year. Clune's 22.6 yards a catch is unmatched nationally overthe past two seasons.

Penn has four solid running backs, with Adolph "Beep Beep"Bellizeare leading the pack with a '72 record of 849 yards for anaverage of 5.1 yard per carry. Two other rushers were less activebut even more efficient: Ralph McGee had a 6.2 average lastyear and John Sheffield had 5.5. "Beep Beep" Bellizeare is onlya junior, and last year his rushing record was greater than anyother sophomore in Penn history. He led the Quakers with 11touchdowns and 68 points.

Penn's offensive line last year was also the most effective statis-tically in Penn history, and most of it is returning: Terry Freeh attackle, Dan Thompson at guard, Bob Jameson at center, andGlenn Gaetano at tight end. The defensive line is equally tightand strong, and 6-6, 220-pound defensive tackle Bob Thomsonis outstanding. Big and aggressive, Thomson was the Quakers'leading pass rusher last year.

Coach Harry Gamble sums up the prospects with disarmingmodesty: "Our effectiveness for the coming year is not inevitable.But to pretend that we are not potentially explosive again withproven people back would be foolish."

Princeton: When Bob Casciola took over the head coaching jobat Princeton last spring, he inherited a program that has lostsome of the bloom of the glory days of Cosmo lacavazzi. Afterwinning or sharing four Ivy championships in the 1960's,Princeton has yet to finish higher than fourth place in the 1970's.Coach Casciola, another Blackman apostle, hopes to be cookingup a change this fall.

But after last season's 3-5-1 record and tie for sixth place (withColumbia), Princeton's prospects, even with a new coach, arenot quite bullish. Twenty-four lettermen are back, includingthe entire offensive and defensive backfields. Casciola may have

to perform some sleight-of-hand to get strong performances outof his quarterbacks—Dave Mistretta, Jim Flynn and FredDalzell. He can count on capable, if not electrifying, runningfrom halfbacks Walt Snickenberger and Jud Wagenseller. Lastseason, Wagenseller was Princeton's top rusher, but that top wasonly 353 yards for a limp 3.5 yards per carry. The return of twoexperienced receivers in Kerry Brown and Bill Skinner virtuallyguarantees a passing game from Princeton. Dalzell, who threwfor 649 yards last season at the quarterback slot, should givehis receivers plenty of action.

It is not much help that Princeton is thinly manned in thefront lines, although captain Bill Cronin can be counted oneither at offensive guard or tight end. A couple of injuries on theline could postpone any Palmer Stadium renaissance for an-other year.

Yale: Coach Carmen Cozza begins his 101st year of Yale foot-ball with some impressive accomplishments from last seasonlingering deliciously in the air over Yale Bowl. Last season'scentennial team ended their labors with a 5-2 League record.They secured second place in the final standings. They had therighteous joy of pummelling the Ivy leader, Dartmouth, by ascore of 45-14 (not to mention the great good luck in barelysnatching victory from Harvard). They scored more pointsthan anyone else in the Ivies. And (finally and triumphantly)they produced an All-American in halfback Dick Jauron.

Unfortunately, Jauron has been lost through graduation,and Coach Cozza begins the second century of Yale footballwith a certain justifiable caution, muttering hopeful but guardedphrases like "dark horse contender for the Ivy title." Yale'schief hope, even with Jauron gone, is its offensive backfield.Quarterback Tom Doyle, halfback Rudy Green, and fullbackTyrell Hennings all have solid rushing averages, with Greenand Hennings pulling down 6 touchdowns apiece last year. Theoffensive line, nearly all back from last year, can be expectedto open some very large holes for them. Quarterback Doylecan move Cozza's Wishbone offense well and may be one of thebetter running quarterbacks in the League (he was 10th in rush-ing last year) but he will need to work hard on his passing attack.Unfortunately, Yale has little depth at this slot, and if Doyle isinjured, the Bulldogs would lose a good deal of their grip on thetitle. Placekicker Brian Clarke is back, too, accurate as ever.

Yale's defensive backfield also gets high marks, with crackcornerback Carl Lewis and halfback Elvin Charity returningand conceivably heading for All-Ivy honors. Yale is strongagain at linebacker, where team captain Gary Wilhelm can beexpected to carry out most of the destruction.

Cozza's cautiousness makes sense, however. Apart from aweak passing attack (complicated by the absence of any reallyoutstanding receivers at this point), Yale's defensive line needswork and a new punter has to be found. The major problem isthe overall one of depth. Although 28 lettermen are returning,only six were offensive starters and seven defensive starters lastyear. In addition, the sophomores join varsity ranks after ahumbling 1-5 record as freshmen. Yale will have to work fastand stay injury free if it wants to make any title predictions cometrue.

29MEN: Dr A E Alexander, Suite 1604, 18 E48th St, NYC 10017

The annual Class of '29 dinner held in theCornell Club May 9 is a matter of record,and as a record it did not shape up verywell! Yes, 33 showed up and undoubtedlyhad a great time. However, when you sub-tract 12 women guests you wind up with 21men, of whom one individual was a guest atthat. In short we have then a case ofdiminishing return. In the Cornell NYAlumni directory there are 97 members ofthe Class of '29 living in NYC of which 16are MDS! Two medical practitioners put inan appearance—Harry Sporn and IsidoreStein. Those who attended: Paul NelsonMartin, Albert W Murray, James GordonHoffman, Jerome Lester Loewenberg, MyronFuerst, Julia Mehlman Greenhut, LelandHastings Lyon, Harry Svendik, HarrySporn, Nathan and Vera Ende, BerniceTraubner, Bella Maisel Goldin, Isidore andEleanor Stein, Theodore and Anna Heine,Maurice Nixon, Frederick Williams and Au-brey Kelley, Louis and Thelma Spirt, BellaMay Smith, Bruce Leonard Bailey, GraceCartin Wile, Howard Fales Hall, HaroldGreenberg, Leonard Spelman, HerbertFletcher Marples, Robert and Evelyn Lyon,Alex and Helen Alexander. Bill Dierdorfcame for cocktails, but did not stay for theroast beef. (It was better last year than thisyear!)

Mike Bender for the first time was amongthe missing. Our Class secy and his bridewere on the good ship "Canberra," Australi-a's contribution to the good life on the highseas! From the depths of hot Fla, cameword from Ethel Corwin Ritter, capable presof the '29 Women (and former class corre-spondent), regretting she could not attend,and wishing one and all a great time! Theassembled group gave Ethel a big hand! Incase you do not know, Fla has a big con-tingent of '29ers. Maybe we should have theannual class dinner in that part of theworld henceforth?

Ret Brig Genl William (Bill) Losel wrotein "how come you have not published mynote of several months back?" Well Bill, yrcorrespondent is not retired. Being an editorof a large circulated trade mag, an editorfor a publishing co in Johannesburg, and awholesaler of diamonds, I am kept ratherbusy with my nefarious activities. In short, Ifit the column material in when I can andthe chips fall where they may. In any event,Bill goes on to say: "Myrtle and I justreturned from a vacation in the HawaiianIslands. I was stationed there during WW IIand I kept showing Myrtle colored moviesof the beautiful islands. Naturally she wasn'tsatisfied with just pictures, so after 30 yearsshe finally realized her fondest dreams. Wehad a wonderful time."

Bill went on to say that they are taking 3of their 6 grand children to visit Disney

World in hot Fla. Going are Tammy, Joeyand Kurt. Glad to hear from you, Bill.Incidentally, our Ret Brig Genl is fromKenmore (just outside of Buffalo, if you areinterested). It wasn't until the next day, inchecking the Cornell '29 yearbook, that Idiscovered that Bella Maisel Goldin whowas at the dinner, graduated from Buffalo'sHutchinson Central High! It so happensthat yr correspondent also struggled throughthat fine old institution. 50 yrs ago thatgreat school was a real melting pot—blacks,whites, Italians, Germans, Poles, you nameit, we had it, and strangely enough every-body got along swell! I am sure BellaMaisel will concur!

I do not know how many '29ers fly theirown plane, but Joseph Weatherby, of Harris-burg, Pa, wrote in to say that he is stillflying his old Cessna! Sounds like a pleasantenough pastime!

A note from Henry Woodward states thathe Tias retired from active teaching fromCarleton College. Almost 20 years ago, Iwas invited to give a lecture at Carleton. Ifound it a lovely place and enjoyed myshort stay immensely. One thing I stillremember—several factuly members told meabout the local town cop who had just killeda favorite campus dog. The story was thatthis character just detested dogs!

Our PhD in geology, Kenneth Caster isstill associated with the U of Cincinnati. Hehas 5 more years to go before calling itquits. This summer he will be in the Galapa-gos, Ken, its better than being in midtownNY, in Aug!

Another Cornell PhD (botany), Pascal PPirone, long with the NY Botanical Gar-dens, mentions something about his book onTree Maintenance going strong and now inits 4th edition. When you write well, you sellwell.

I finished this column just as Secretariatbeat his rivals by 31 lengths! A horse likethis should automatically be made an Hon-orary Member of the Glass of '29!

As I write my column I'm listening to theCornell Album to put me in the Cornellmood. The album was a gift to us from Mrand Mrs Ernest Gay (Rosalie Cohen). Wehave fond memories of their last visit herewhen we play the record. We were all disap-pointed that the Gays didn't get to Sarasotawhen they took the Auto Train down. TheSarasota 29ers were all vacationing else-where at the time so Rosalie and Ernie wentto Miami, Deerfield Beach and Daytona.They also attended Ernie's convention ofBlinded War Veterans in Atlantic City. Ro-salie keeps very busy singing for church andcivic affairs.

Dr and Mrs Ira Degenhardt '28, MD '31(Dorothy English) attended Ira's 45th Re-union in June. While in the East Dot wasawarded her "silver diploma" from NY MedSchool where she received her degree 25 yrsago. Dot and Ira have active practices inSan Anselmo, Cal. They visited CharlotteGristede at Wingdale. While there they at-tended the opening dinner at Quaker HillCountry Club in Pawling and met a fellowclassmate, Bill Dierdorf.

Many of our classmates are taking ad-vantage of leisure days and traveling. Char-lotte Gristede went to Germany in June. MrsE Trevor Hill (Kit Curvin) took a trip outWest with the Friends of the Arts andSciences. Mrs and Mrs Fred Ritter (EthelCorwin) took a trip to Spain. Anna Schmidttook a 6000-mile car trip to the West, visit-ing Grand Canyon and many other interest-ing places. Bella Smith took a trip to Den-mark, Norway, Sweden and Finland. Bill

and I enjoyed our first trip to England anda wonderful visit with my sister in London.We spent threcdays at Stratford and two atBrighton—the remainder of our stay was inLondon.

Bella Smith wrote of the pleasant time sheand 3 other gals of our class had at the '29Men's dinner at the Cornell Club of NewYork. Bella Maisel Goldin, Julia MehlmanGreenhut and Grace Carlin Wile also at-tended. The Nassau County Cornell Clubmet the same night and prevented othersfrom attending. Meyer Bender was helpfulin sending me the cards he received fromwhich I've gathered some news for my nextcolumn.

I am sorry to report the death on April 15at the age of 91 of Mrs Ernest Hoskins(Edith Casho). Many of you will rememberher as a gym teacher and Sill House Motherour freshman yr. At her funeral service Imet her son-in-law, Theodore W Minick '32.He is now supervisor of dining halls atDuke. Some of Miss Casho's girls estab-lished a memorial to her at Cornell. Jo MillsReis, Charley Gristede and I have happymemories of our visits with her here inSarasota.

In contrast to last year's Reunion week-end, ours was beautiful—a trifle warm per-haps, but great for the chicken and ribsbarbeque in Balch court, where the tent andthe Ramblers were also. We're sorry if youmissed the fun, like Mary King Crookerwho because she broke her ankle in thespring just got in her planned trip to En-gland, and so Kathleen Mitchell Cowendidn't come either, or Adele Langston Rog-ers who had hoped to be in on the doingsfor at least one day, but she and her hus-band represented the US at the President ofLiberia's reception Thurs and left for aCENTO meeting in Iran Fri, or Sister AnneRyan who found she had to teach at thePenitentiary thru June 8th.

But it was great even if some made it foronly a short time as did Dolores DavernHayes, Helen Cotter Strombeck just backfrom Europe, and Mildred Coats Bassett andhusband. They chatted with my husband forawhile at the dorm, but I was doing the newArt Museum Sat. afternoon, and took theCampus Tour to see what other changes hadbeen made lately.

Friday morning I chose to go to the HECbreakfast for the nominee for pres of execbd was none other than classmate MarionFord Fraser! Marion was pres of CWClubof Syracuse, former pres of Coop Ext HECDiv, pres Salvation Army Women's Aux,and of course was elected to her new posi-tion of honor! It was good to see her again,and later Dave who came especially to hearthose Ramblers!

Harriett Davidson Bolan was back for thefirst time, even tho Marie Mantel had meet-ings that kept her at home. Ruth CarmanLane was in from California, as was BeaAlexander Weingart. Peg NcNinch andTruman Wright were on hand, and I satwith them at Joe's, while Ed and Gar finallyfound seats on the other side of the room.'33 reailly had the place crowded! I discov-ered Betty Lloyd Hennessey and husband

were behind me, the Kollers and ElinorErnst Whittier nearby. The next morningBierds arrived bringing Marie Calhoun Post& Gordon Whittier. Mary Brown Channelhad two granddaughters with her; MarionCondit Chapman was with her enthusiasticCornellian husband, the Walter Kunschesand Helen Kilquist were in from Conn.,Helen Booth DeLill was there to give us asmiling greeting as always, and ElizabethReynolds Wilson, now of Ithaca, was at thebanquet.

There is so much to tell, and so many toreport on, it will have to go to anothercolumn, but I do want to mention the SunMemorial Svce in Sage Chapel where '33was well represented in the small atten-dance, by Marian Glaeser, and Laura Jen-nings among others. Laura retired in '70from the CU Library where she was head ofCatalog Dept.

Another retiree in June was E LeonardΈunny' Barker, athletic director of St Paul'sSchool (NH) since 1947. In England for theHenley crew races (where his reached thefinals), Bunny and Isabelle Everhart Barkerexpect to travel, but he will be just over thehill from us in Cornish, where he is lookingforward to the hunting.

There are address changes for the newdirectory already, as a note from MargaretGallagher DeLong, pointing out Florida wasa long way from Ithaca, gave her address as904 Forest Lake Dr, Lakeland, Fla. AnnetteDickman Klein, who did make it, is now at152 U Plymouth, in Century Village, W.Palm Bea, Fla. Charlotte Barry Bogue isnow Box 844 in Lynbrook.

Elinor Whittier and Charles Mellowesdeserve a lot of praise for their efforts onReunion planning! It is a lot of work andproblems for them, while enjoyment for us.At the Banquet, the women officers weregiven lovely silver bowls, especially due Bet-ty Klock Bierds and Marion Glaeser whoretired after many years of effort for theclass.

On the bridegroom's side, were Don-ald E Cameron '43 and Clara Zink Cameron'42, with grandfather George W Zink '12.On the bride's side, in addition to Elsie, andher late husband, Paul '33, was her father,Sereno Glassell Miller '08. It does soundpretty special.

Attending a "Mended Hearts" conventionin Buffalo last June gave me a chance totalk by phone with Ruth Buckland Hoff-man, who is busy as librarian, CampusSchool of the State U at Buffalo. One ofRuth's sons, a math-physics major, is mar-ried, and the other is just getting out of theArmy and planning to finish his collegework next. When Ruth and Joseph '35,visited Rome on a recent vacation they hada good visit with Gilda Porcelli Massa andher husband, who have transferred theirGreenwich Village publishing firm tomanuscript collecting in Italy, probably forgood. Ruth also had another enjoyable visitwith her sister, Margaret Buckland Tsiang'38, now living in Houston, Tex after manyyears residence in China. Ruth had onepiece of sad news to share, the death ofclassmate Caroline Sutherland Gregg of Ro-chester.

Frances Eldridge Guest's news and duesof last year was late in arrival; reason, 6weeks wandering around Europe, includingthe Dalmatian coast as far as Kotor, andwith every day in the Alps crystal clear.

Mary Jewell Willoughby and Everett '34are having troubles keeping the Kansas farmand Mass property they thought they mightretire on someday from overzealous real es-tate agents.

Janet Fitch Beal says that after her moth-er died in 1971 at age 95, Janet and hersisters published a book of her poems,"things she had kept fairly well hidden. Youcan imagine what a thrill it was finding herold notebooks and getting the manuscriptready, mailing them to friends, getting en-chanted responses. They're really good andwe're so proud to share them . . . Whilemother was able, we did family pictures andstories—great fun. Mothers have such longmemories for the touching and funny thingsof family life. Also for relations and ances-tors. I did this with Ed's mother too, by thehour, and we both had a ball. I could—andmaybe will—get several books out of thesetwo long-lived ladies . . ." Janet retired fromher job with Dept of Ag in April and Edwill retire soon from the Library of Con-gress.

Anyone who missed it is only to be pitied!The "thirsty-fifth" of '38 followed the patternthat again had envious other classes sendingagents to learn the secret, which this yearincluded sunny, warm, clear weather justhumid enough to reassure us we were inIthaca.

Wednesday's early arrivals ad-libbed, thencame Thursday's chicken barbeque at DeltaPhi (Llenroc), Gus Reyelt chief consultant.And, of course, all five days, intermittentregistration, beering and continuous conver-sation at Balch Hall headquarters, completewith Johnny Bowman's musicians and theSebela Wehe photo-mural.

There were dinners (Fri stag, Sat coed) atNoyes Dining Center. The men's includedsuch prizewinners as: Came farthest, BillKruse (Belgium); youngest child, Alex Early(5); suavest bachelor, Ralph Doilohue;sportsmanship award, Dr Bob Cloyes (hebrought and chaperoned an '03 alum, 93,from San Dieεo; most glorious technicoloriacket. Art Hoffman: most hated/envied, BobBodholdt, George Batt and Warren Bohner(their senior blazers still fit). Fred Hillegas


was both dinners' "toastperson," and mem-ories evoked included Proctor Manning,Strand Theater vaudeville, Dean Fitch, Are-opagus and the Widow, and Finkey the hotdog man.

It turns out '38 pioneered what today's"experts" mistakently consider unprece-dendted: "Lib" woman rep on the studentcouncil, men in Women's Student Gov fash-ion shows; "senate investigations," theMcNaboe-Cornell Daily Sun probes of mari-juana and Communism; and "ecologicallysound" exhaustless Ithaca trolleys' masstransportation.

One highlight was Sat PM's christening ofthe new eight-oared shell donated by '38ersupon inspiration of half-payment by Edward("Ted") Gallagher, husband of our Ger-maine Miller Gallagher. Stroking the shellon the Inlet was the man after whom it'snamed, Fearless Leader George Y More.Other oarsmen were Ed Pfeifer, John Cle-ment, John W Rogers, Bill Doolittle, BobNewman, Tom Paterson and '37's HermanVan Fleet. George Holley and Alex Earlyshared coxswain chores. "Ted" Gallagher isLehigh '35, so the stroke oar was brown andwhite, then presented to him at Saturday'sdinner.

Special mention of those who make re-unions succeed: Reunion Chmn Gil Rose, Re-union Treasurer Harry Martien, LeaderMore and Class Treasurer Roy Black, and anod to the ALUMNI NEWS'S CharlieWilliams. Extra touches: Frosty Durham leda geology walking-Jour; Jack Thomasprovided several massive signs, color photosof past reunions those depicted could takehome, and long-play tapes of prom-bandmusic of our era; Ed Pfeifer and TomPaterson bird-dogged the shell fund.

Highest academic honors at dinner: Uni-versity Trustees our own Urie Bronfenbren-ner, now an internationally known childpsych prof at Cornell, and his wife, Liese;and Constance Cook '41, state assembly-woman and assembly education committeechairman, and her husband, AI.

Other memories: Breakfast at NoyesLodge pancake house; the many spouses(spices?) on hand; the towering newquadrangle art museum; the ever-hub-bubbling tent; class-picture corraling; atleast one walk around the gorge-yes campuswith its hypnotic combination of the ever-changing and the never-changing; lunch,chatter and seeing the other classes at theDrill Hall; the stirring Savage Club showand a memorable Saturday "Cornelliana"show, both at Bailey Hall; a dinner dedica-tion "to those not with us—some ill, otherswho've passed on, some merely diverted, butall who now share with us into eternitythe joys and sorrows and tensions and mem-ories of our youth."

The only thing reunion lacked was thepresence of '38ers who could have beenthere—so mark your calendar now for thefrivolous fortieth! Balch, Noyes, the bandand other delights already are reserved for1978!

Three weeks before I wrote this, theGeorge Y More 8-oared shell was beingchristened in Ithaca and we who were for-tunate enough to attend our 35th Reunionwere cheering and loving every minute ofit. More about that event from the Men'sReunion reporter. As it is, this is my swansong as your correspondent and I will at-tempt to report because your new sec wasunable to be there that weekend. We missedtoo many of you who had said you werecoming! You missed the very best yet andnow start planning on the next, right? From

the barbecue on Thursday night to theSunday morning dancing (while half-heartedly attempting to pack) it was a full,fun-filled, memorable week-end. If I shouldmiss naming one of you who made it,please forgive, but be sure to tell us, becausethere were two registrations (at Balch Hqsand at Barton Hall).

Those with us were: Elaine ApfelbaumKeats, Grace Johnson Crosby, EleanorBahret Spencer, Grace Ballard Lotspeich,Muriel (Cookie) Cook Thomas (the chmnwho deserves a million thanks from all ofus), Frances Galπin Zilliox, Lucy HowardJarvis, Gerry Miller Gallagher, Fran OttoCooper, Nat Perry McKeee, Dottie PulverGoodell, Jane Ridgway Lawrence, AnnRosenberg Sussman, Jean ScheidenhelmWolff, Hope Stevenson Peet, Jane Stouten-burg, Carol Thro Richardson, Ethel TurnerEwald, Willie Mazar Satina, Phyllis WheelerWίnkelman, Eleanor Pearse Freebern, Pris-cilla Stevens Stringham, Mary Jo EvansCobb, Elsie Harrington Doolittle, RosalieNeumann Hoffman, Jeanne White Church,Marion Howe, Joyce Farbstein Bolz. Again,I hope you were listed, but if not on eitherregistration please notify one of us.

Everyone was so busy in different direc-tions that I can only account for the groupevents. We were especially pleased to haveabout thirty '38 Wives join us at our Fridaynight dinner in the new Noyes Center.During dinner we were entertained by agreat quartet "Four Ithacords". That eve-ning was enioved later at the Tent where thefantastic weekend band of our own kept usjumping, literally. The next morning we'girls' were up not so bright, but early, toattend the All Cornell Women's Breakfast atthe Statler.

Our Lucy Howard Jarvis was the speakerand needless to say we were pleased andenthralled with her message concerning heractivities in communications, of which youare very well aware by now. The ForbiddenCity seemed much nearer to all of us. Shewill keep us informed of some new endeav-ors soon to be released. She seemed bol-st&red to see so many familiar faces at thetables down front!

Sneaking of talent, another classmate fur-nished us and the University with a treatover the weekend. Grace (Johnnie) JohnsonCrosby had a One Woman Art Show' atthe Straight. It really was beautiful. Johnnieexhibited about a dozen of her metal sculp-tures and paintings combined. Her tech-niques are really unique and lovely, especiallya treatment of bark on painting. Congratu-lations, Johnnie and good luck on continu-ing your showings 'countrywide'!

Our Saturday night dinner was a jointaffair with the '38 Men. They are such aperfect group of gentlemen and we arelucky. It was a joyous occasion for manyintroductions including our new officerswho had been voted in that noon during avery noisy luncheon atmosphere at Barton.Your new pres is Jean Scheidenhelm Wolff,the secy is Helen Reichert Chadwick, treasElaine Apfelbaum Keats, Cornell Fund RepPhyllis Wheeler Winkelman and ReunionChair-person Fran Otto Cooper.

By no means are we stopping ourenthusiastic interest in '38 Activities. It hasbeen a great privilege and we thank you allfor the trust and opportunities.

It has been a thrill to receive two Cornel-lian letters within the past two monthswritten just for this part of our column!The first from a proud grandmother, MrsPaul McKeegan.

As I watch the NEDT re-run of theWatergate hearings, I wonder if many otherswatch the outrage and without action. If thegrads of the '60s were so morally numbed byvarious forms and degrees of civil disobedi-ence (many of which would have astoundedGandhi), how have the grads of the '40sbeen affected? What did we do? Whatshould we have done?

This is not especially space saving, but theonly '42 news is a note from Joseph TCefalo Jr telling of the sudden death of his


father, Joseph T Cefalo. He was a memberof Tau Kappa Epsilon Fraternity and beforehis death was president of Cefalo's MelroseFlorist Col, Inc.

We Potters are pleased with the arrival ofour 7th grandchild (no more than two perfamily). The score is 6 boys and one girl.We are adding to our immediate familywhich now has only one daughter at home,Diana, hs jr. E Claire Baker from Sidney,Australia, will join us in July for one yr asan Amer Field Service rep from her country.Perhaps other '42ers have been or are hostfamilies.

Several items of business are of interest:Franfc Clifford has been appointed chmn ofthe 25th Reunion and has already startedworking on plans for that Reunion; al-though there are approximately 1200 '50alumni who receive the ALUMNI NEWS, only500 actually pay annual dues. The decisionwas made to continue carrying all thenames until after the 25th Reunion, whenanother look will be taken. The 40th an-niversary fund was considered importantenough to attempt a little broader mediacoverage concerning this idea—it is current-ly at $20,000 but doesn't have the number ofparticipants we would like. However, thenumber is growing each year so it wasdecided to continue with it. It was agreedthat there would be a promotional mailing


for it—you will hear more about this later.Also discussed was the possibility of gettingnew people lined up for class officers forthe next 5 yrs—replacing some of us whohave been involved for a number of yearsnow. (The switch in class sees is a start.)Your thoughts on this would be appreci-ated, too.

It has been said of Ithaca, by someancient sage no doubt, that the only normalresident mammal thereof is the duck, andthat man merely proves his miraculousadaptability by trying to survive in thatenvironment. But, on Thursday, June 6, theresident clouds were called upon to visitsome neighboring golf courses, where it hasbeen said it never rains, and lo and behold,Ithaca turned into "My Blue Heaven" (withapologies to the composer).

Once again, the Class of 53 had pulled itoff—hot, sunny, unbelievable good weatherarrived for our reunion, and munificent aswe are, we permitted the other reunioningclasses to fare as well.

Reunion was a ball, a success, a time forremembrance of some good times and days.Strangers became friends and friends justremembered.

I did not arrive until Friday afternoon,but I'm told that the University golf courseand tennis courts were given much attentionby the earlier arrivals. Just as popular werethe tours of the awesome, new, and, to me,bewildering, synchrotron. One of the "must-see" spots turned out to be the also newJohnson Art Museum. For once, architec-tural genius was given its head, for thisbuilding is a gem. I will not venture adescription, for I could not begin to detailthe excitement it engenders, and its settingon the libe slope is not at all obtrusive.

Friday night things really began to movestarting with the barbecue at the Big RedBarn with refreshments by Genesee andmusic by the Soda-Ash Six—a fine dixielandgroup. Then over to the tents set up aboveBalch where the bands blared, the beerflowed and the night never ended.

Saturday's events were a class swim-in atthe Howard Johnson motel. Those wearingbathing suits stayed dry. The mistake was towear clothes. The class lifeguards consistingof, in part, Bob Neff, Joe Hinsey, PoeFratt, Sandy Posner, decided to give swim-ming lessons to all. They did the inviting-—


very informally.The cocktail party at the North Campus

Dorm (on.HQ) cannot be summed up bythe remark of one of the Junior-juniorreuners—to wit, "Are you drunk yet, Mom-my?" Well, in this case Mommy was not,and to those who stayed away from reunionin fear of the possibility that reunions arejust one drunken brawl, you made a mis-take. This was a good swinging party. Mu-sic again by the Soda-Ash Six and a newside-man they picked up that evening, LouisPradt.

The final official function was the dinnerin an un-air-conditioned dining hall. I toldyou Ithaca isn't ready for humans. Awardsof Distinction were awarded; Jolly Wood-bridge winning the class tennis tournamentand the award for having the most daugh-ters. There is a moral there, but you workon it. Nick and Marvel Luykx (MS '59) ofHonolulu travelled the greatest distance toIthaca. David AHee travelled from Ithaca.

Finally, our new class officers were an-nounced. Part of their new responsibility isto be our 25th. Bob Abrams is pres, PeteCooper and Jackie Klarnett Freedman, vps,Bill Bellamy, treas, Cork Hardinge andMarianne Aber Rippe, sees. To them—Good luck. And to our outgoing officers—well-done.

Finally, some statistics. We had over 200men and women return. We gave to theFund Drive over $70,000, a record for us,and I believe a record for 20th reunionclasses; we got our "Class of 53 Room" atthe Straight. Five out of six people hadgreat times, Vi person out of six did not, andthe other Vi person asked to have the ques-tion repeated, and repeated and repeated.Mommy, he was sloshed.

Would you believe twenty years? Judgingfrom the youthful looking faces seenaround the North Campus Reunion hq ofthe Class of 1953, it didn't seem like twentyyears. True, many of the fresh looking facesaround the impressive new dormitory com-plex were children or our classmates, but,all in all, we looked pretty good.

Among the first to sign in were the JollyWoodbridges, Alma Ann ClinkenbeardKoch, the Roy Golds, Barbara HochgrebeChristensen, the Alan Quimbys, the JackMannixes, Jane Hardy, the Vin Giarrussos,Bob Morrow, the Bill Gurowitzes, and ArtShυll.

Obviously enjoying themselves at the de-lightful Fri night barbeque at the Big RedBarn were Paul and Roberta FriendDowney, Jack and Carol Parker, Mort andAnita Bunis, John and Lea Paxton Nixon,Carole Kneen Evans, Sandy and SusanPosner, Ruth Speirs Nickse, Rich and Gra-de Jahn, Ray Handlan, Dottie Clark Free,Jean and Pete Cooper, Dick Klein, Donand Nancy Baxter, Stan and Carol Landau,Jerry and Sandy Bangilsdorf Klein, Bob andLou Dailey, Barbara Marcille Day, RussZechman, Ted and Joanne Bauckman,Anne Buck. Coyne, Andy Campbell, AveryYoung and Ned and Ellie Pattison, to namea few.

Seen around the pool at Bob Abrams'Ho-Jo Motel on Sat afternoon, in additionto Judy Abrams, were Gerry Grady, mastermilk punch brewer, Swede Tornberg, Fletchand Diana Hock, Bill Russell and his broth-er, Jack Russell, Bill Gratz, Bud Grice,Dave and Shannon Kopko, Bob Neff, Boband Diane Miller DeVido, Jack and Mar-tine Brophy, Jack and Babs Jaeckel, Clarkand Claire Moran Ford, Bill Sullivan, Earland Polly Flansburgh, Norman and BarbaraZelfman Gross, Glenn Crosway, Allan Mos-

toff and Peter and Sharon Weissman,among others.

The University's new tent plan was hard-ly a noticeable change. Undoubtedly, thiswas because we were all having such agood time as one of the few classes to haveour own full-time band. The Dixieland fromthe Soda Ash Six was superb, and gatheredaround the open bar furnished by MessrsHock and Grice on the lawn were CorkHardinge, Poe Fratt, Jan and Bill Bellamy,Jim and Ann Zimmer, Fred and JoanBυhrendoif, Bob Dilatush, Marilyn ElowitchFrank, Buddy Rubens, Nancy and KenSainsbury and a host of others.

The Class dinner was held Sat evening atthe North Campus Student Union. Everyonewas there, including Bill and Helen WallaceMiksch, Bill and Nancy Milliman Burnett,Murray and Enid Spangenberger Miles,Chuck and Gretchen Berlinghof, Bill andLiz Jewell, Jack and Betty Bradshaw, Edand Joan Schultz Petroske, Jim and SandraBlackwood, Louis Pradt, Bill and NancyFerguson Waugaman, Skip McCarthy, BobOlt, Sonya Bloser Sengelman, Jim Hanchett,Mac and Barb Storm, Jackie KlarnettFreedman, Bernie West, Hal and RosemaryJung, John and Linda Will, Chuch aίidJoyce Rupp Cady, Peter and MickieSymonds Eschweiler, and the Bill Simons.

It was fun seeing our kids together withthe children of our old friends. A lot ofthem had a great time swimming in thegorge under the Suspension Bridge on Satafternoon.

The gentlemen of the class were outfittedin chic red and white polo shirts, providedby one of Rich Jahn's clients, while theWomen's Reunion chmn, Anne Buck Coynepersonally made and block printed thesmart '53 tote bags for the gals.

Your correspondent this month, by theway, is Claire Moran Ford. Your regularscribe, Sandy Bangilsdorf Klein and hus-band Jerry have taken off for France whilethe kids are in camp. She caught me in aweak moment, and I agreed to report onReunion before I realized I hadn't takennotes and I seem to suffer memory failure(due to advancing age?) The challenge oftrying to accurately report so many bits ofnews and conversation is beyond me, so myapologies to you all for the lack of news.Sandy will be back next issue.

All in all, it was a marvelous weekend,and I'm sure that all who were there sharethe feeling that they can't wait for our nextReunion. See ya'll then!

The new scholastic year is beginning,summer of '73 has come to an end all tooquickly, and the ALUMNI- NEWS goes intofull swing. Our columns for '73—both menand women—have been regular parts of theCAN. Doreen and I hope that you theclassmates will continue to supply us with

the names and info to keep the column fulland interesting. A column with a lot offiller, few names, etc is just not the bestreading . . . so keep the news coming in hotand heavy. Dues notices will go out withinthe next month and they will have the usualformat with space for personal notes. Pleasetake advantage of the bottom of thesesheets. Make it as lengthy or as brief asyour personal news warrants . . . BUT USEIT!

You will have to decide for yourselves themerits of each solicitation, and put yourmonies where you think they will do themost good. And I'm sure you will be re-minded many times of the necessity forstrong Alumni support of Cornell in thesetimes of rising college costs and diminishedgovernmental and foundation support. It issurprising what small donations from abroad based group of Alumni can do in theaggregate. If you've ever had the opportuni-ty to participate in the Cornell Fund Pho-nathans, you will understand!

As in the past years, I will be happy totry and answer any questions you mighthave regarding class finances, alumni rec-ords, or whatever.But there is no percentagein remaining in the silent minority and notspeaking out, either positively or negatively.Use the address above our column eachmonth. 'Nuff said.

Time flies by, doesn't it? Remember'69-'7O—my first year as class correspondentwhen I pigeon-holed your news items—"marriages," "grad school acceptances,""job placements," and "the military"?

In the meantime, singlesixty-niners are scattered all over the globe:at school, at work, or at play. It's been funfor 4 years and I'm looking forward to the5th!

After several months' hiatus, I've beentrying to scare up enough material for an-other column. It's been pretty slow going,though, because people simply aren't volun-teering much news about themselves—ortheir friends, either. And without that,there's just not much point to a class notescolumn. Let's hear from you!

Fred Solowey returned in late June froma 5-month sojourn in Latin America, wherehe traipsed through Chile, Argentina, Peru,Brazil, Venezuela, Equador and assortedother principalities. "It was great—justmind-blowing," Fred remarked in a tele-phone interview from his lodgings some-where on West End Ave.

Solowey, who was assoc editor of TheSun his sr yr, said he'd interviewed a slew ofleftist political organizers, workers, down-and-out villagers, etc with a view toward

free-lancing some magazine pieces. Also, hesaid he would be working for at least thenext few months with the National Coali-tion to End Grand Jury Abuse, an outfitsponsored by the National Lawyers' Guildin an attempt to counter the government'szest for conspiracy-hunting, subpoenaingnewsmen and so on. The phone conversa-tion started to get interesting, but by thenFred and I both had an inkling there couldbe a tap on the line and decided we'd bettercontinue the discussion somewhere safe, likeunderneath the 59th St Bridge.

Are You α Henty Buff?Honesty, cleanliness, abstemiousness, and patriotism are the virtues displayed bythe boy heroes of late-nineteenth-century English writer George Alfred Henty.

Though he wrote his more than eighty vastly popular novels about everyconceivable historical period and geographical location, his major characters allresemble wholesome English boys. They knew how to take advantage ofsituations while keeping a cool head, and how to be good to the natives, whetherin India or Carthage. Their adventures were massively reprinted both in Englandand America. The books were given as school prizes and stocked in librariesto inspire a whole generation, and reflect the myths of an era long passed.

Cornell's Olin Library has begun building a complete first-edition collectionof Henty's works, and is asking the help of alumni in acquiring them.Below is a list of the titles Cornell still does not have. If you know of any,get in touch with Asst. Director Hendrik Edelman at Olin:

A final reckoning, Friends though divided, Gabriel Allen MP, Gallant deeds,A hidden foe (2 vols), A highland chief, The historical tales of G. A. Henty,In the hands of the Malays, An indian raid, Jack Archer, John Hawke's fortune,The march to Magdala, On the Spanish main, The plague ship, The Queen's Cup(3 vols.), The ranche in the valley, Rujub the juggler (3 vols), St. George forEngland, Seaside maidens.

Reunion

Getting TogetherMaybe two or three times during theweek, a majority of the 2,000 or sopeople who register for Reunion doget together for a luncheon, or a paneldiscussion, or a Savage Club show, butfor the most part, Reunion is a seriesof smaller happenings. Classes gatherfor dinners, honorary societies havebreakfasts, and other organizations ofalumni hold meetings. Above all, indi-vidual alumni seek out those activi-ties and pjaces on campus that meantthe most to them as undergraduates.

This being the case, it was not sur-prising how many alumni turned upon Thursday for a gathering of thesponsors of Cornell Plantations, a di-vision of the university that managesa vast outdoor classroom of woods,meadows, and plantings east of thecampus. It has been a favorite spotfor generations of Cornellians inter-ested in nature, or just in a quietplace to walk and relax.

A Lunch inthe Open"They don't do anything over therewithout knowing what's going to behappening for the next thirty, fortyyears," remarked an elderly alumnus."And aren't we lucky they're likethat."

He was on his way to the fifteenthannual luncheon of Cornell Planta-tions, a quiet, even idyllic event onthe second day of Reunion week.About one hundred sponsors andguests attended the luncheon. Thesponsors, a committee of alumni, fac-ulty, and other friends, were orga-nized fifteen years ago at the sametime a fund was established to providesupport for the Plantations. The annualcontribution of the sponsors has beensteadily growing. Five years ago spon-sor's gifts were $31,000; in 1972-73,$64,000 had'already been pledged.

This year, the Plantations wasabout to embark on an expansion ofits property that will add a 220-acrearboretum. Shortly before the lunch,

they dedicated the first piece of landacquired for the proposed arboretum,a beautiful, grassy hillside betweenForest Home and Varna. The gift ofF. R. Newman '12, a major benefac-tor of the university, the meadow isnamed in his honor. At the dedicationPresident Corson declared that thearboretum was a project greatly cher-ished by Mr. Newman, who has al-ways been interested in growingthings and in the beauty of the coun-tryside which surrounds the campus.

Afterwards, guests walked downthe hillside to the luncheon tent, orwere driven in a large and picturesquewagon drawn by two handsomeClydesdale horses. The Clydedales be-long to Dave and Mary Flinn, bothClass of 1960, of Lansing, who areamong the sponsors of the Planta-tions. Unhitched and turned over totheir handlers, the huge horses grazedat a distance throughout lunch, add-ing a note of authentic rusticity tothe proceedings.

The luncheon, like the Plantations,was a beautiful, natural, and charm-ing affair. A heady and fragrant MayWine was served, steeped in localwoodruff flowers (which bloom inIthaca only in late spring), laced withstrawberries and forget-me-nots. It

was the creation of Audrey O'Connor'35, editor of the Plantations maga-zine.

The wine was accompanied by awholesome buffet, catered by Mrs.Mildred Swanson, at age 72 still anindispensable expeditor of family par-ties and weddings in Ithaca. Thedesserts were all made by sponsors,wives, and staff. Several of the excel-lent cakes bore labels reading: "BlackWalnuts from Cornell Plantations inthis Cake Frosting."

After lunch, President Corsonspoke briefly, as did Allan Treman'21, chairman of the sponsors. Amember of an old Cornell and Ithacafamily, he spoke about the beauty ofthe region around Ithaca, and thecare and love required to preserve it.

Richard Lewis, director of thePlantations, talked about the new ar-boretum and the plans for its land-scaping. He said some open grasslandwill be preserved so that, as he ob-served, the trees will not obscure theforest.

"So often in the past," Lewisadded, "Cornell students have over-looked the Plantations, becoming in-terested only afterwards, as alumni,and during Reunions." This situationhas changed over the past few years,


Plantations luncheon includes talksby Allan Treman '21 (left) and RichardLewis, meal under a tent, and rides.

he said. More students are seekingout these green spaces.

Lewis also described two otherPlantations projects in progress, theWild Flower Garden, the gift ofMuriel and Floyd Mundy '17, and theRobison Herb Garden, under con-struction in front of the Plantationsoffices on Judd Falls Road.

The next event of the afternoonwas the dedication of the BowersRhododendron Collection at theComstock Knoll near Beebe Lake.Transportation was provided fromNewman Meadow by an topen trailerpulled by a small tractor. Some spon-sors and guests walked.

Arriving at the Comstock Knoll,the group walked among its impres-sive rhododendron and azalea garden.This collection was being dedicated tothe memory of Clement G. 3owers'23 of Binghamton, who died earlierthis spring at the age of 79. HenrySkinner '36, retired director of the

National Arboretum in Washington,recalled expeditions with Bowers insearch of unusual rhododendron thathad some of the flavor of high adven-ture stories. Mr. Bowers's daughter,Mrs. Lawrence Bothell, was also aspeaker.

At the conclusion of these ceremo-nies, Mr. Lewis announced anotherdedication for the following day; theLeon Ballard Allen Trail, overlookingthe east side of the test gardens. Hethen invited those present to visit thegarden shed beside the Knoll andchoose a plant from among a groupthe staff had assembled.

Guests dispersed slowly, walkingthe grounds, and strolling toward theshed, where they examined the pottedand labelled plants. Gradually, happypeople, gentle people, left the Planta-tions and returned to the campus,carrying plants.

Visiting at theBoothsAny look at a Cornell Reunion thesedays requires a visit to the faculty andadministration information booths inBarton Hall. The thirty-two booths,three-sided affairs, were arranged

along the north, west, and south wallsof the hall.

The temperature, well into the 90soutdoors through most of Reunion,seemed to percolate even higher in-side the confines of the enormous ar-mory. On the Barton Hall buffet, setfor the Friday luncheon, the big bearcarved in ice appeared somewhat liq-uid. A bar called "Zincks" was doinga fair business.

Many of the faculty booths helddisplays, some automated. The Labo-ratory of Ornithology had a real owl,perched on the [feminine curve of anattractive young lady's wrist. Neuro-biology &- Behavior had a turtle,wired to a druπv of paper that record-ed its various bodily functions, alongwith a mimeographed explanation ofthe animal's "diving syndrome,"which the professor on duty said hedidn't understand too well as it wasn'this specialty.

Nearby two extremely cheerfulyoung professors sat in the Englishdepartment booth. Their display wasbooks. Nothing but books. Bookswritten by members of the Englishdepartment. There were few custom-ers.

Moving right along, we came tothe DML, the Division of Modern


Languages. Few visitors there either,but the three linguists at the tableconversed animatedly and with enthu-siasm—to each other.

Landscape Architecture had pottedtrees and lots of coleus and youcouldn't get near it. The Libraries hada cozy corner, with easy chairs andcouches and even a video display thattalked.

The University Senate booth waswell manned, and stocked with in-formation. Its table drew numerouspassersby, and though the Senate hasdrawn criticism from many quarters,the alumni were very kind and inter-ested. The senator at the table told usthe questions most frequently askedhad to do with the composition of theSenate. Most alumni seemed surprisedto hear that faculty, staff, and em-ployes were represented as well asstudents.

We passed a table in the corner,covered with an oriental rug (NorthVietnamese, someone suggested). Be-side it were an antique chair and a tilttop table. The sign said "Society forthe Humanities." We recognized aphilosophy professor sitting at the ta-ble, and one other young man whomwe did not know. They were having aspirited conversation with an alumnafrom a class in the early '20s, aboutteaching grammar at the high schoollevel. We decided to check back later.

The history booth was deserted fora long time,, then Prof. F. G. Mar-cham, PhD '26 arrived and it was allbut swamped. He told us that he hadretired from Cornell after putting inhis full fifty years as a teacher ofEnglish history, and he had just spo-ken with a man who had been hisstudent during his first years ofteaching. He continues as "the oldestteaching assistant on campus," in aprogram of tutorials endowed anony-mously by an alumnus and in whichhe is the first such tutor.

At Industrial and Labor Relations,we listened to a conversation whichhad an unpleasantly familiar ring. Ithad to do with getting rid of thecommies.

CRCR, the Center for Radiophysicsand Space Research, had a model ofa pulsar, photos of the radio-radartelescope at Arecibo, Puerto Rico,and beautiful celestial displays. Twoprofessors were kept ^quite busy an-swering questions. Both said the levelof comment was very high, very intel-

ligent. Most reuners who stoppedwere engineers or scientists, withtechnical backgrounds. Some hadbeen involved in early efforts in spaceresearch.

One interesting visitor claimed tohave, by himself, been the Astronomydepartment a long time ago. "Prof.[Samuel L.] Boothroyd was on sab-batical; I was a grad student in engi-neering and was asked to take over.It affected my life deeply. After-wards, when I learned surveying, Itook fixes on the stars . . . "

Art and Architecture was display-ing the "Seley-mobile." A real car, itsbody is made entirely of autobumpers. The work of Prof. JasonSeley '40, Art, it runs—and it has a Usticker for parking on campus.

Water Resources showed us thedifference between sunnys and blue-gills, but was unable to answer anyquestions about Beebe Lake.

Two booths were showing movies.A color film of the Plantations waslovely, with a rainbow, and then adouble rainbow at the end. And ofcourse, Athletics, which took up quitea bit of space, was showing sportsfilms, sometimes on two screens atonce. But, as we are 40, female, andflabby, and it was lunchtime, wepassed Athletics by.

After lunch, we returned to the So-ciety for the Humanities. The youngman we didn't recognize and whohadn't explained what he was doing

there turned out to be one of themost interesting people we met at Re-union, Jay Cantor '64. An art histori-an, critic, and teacher, he was inIthaca as a consultant on the renova-tion of the Andrew D. White man-sion, which will be the new home ofthe Society.

As with many conversations at Re-union, this one with Mr. Cantor willhave to be continued later; most like-ly in the next issue of the NEWS.

A Special Day forthe Glass of '18It was a special Reunion for the Classof 1918. On Friday, membersgathered to rename an existing dor-mitory as the Class of 1918 Hall. Lo-cated in the Noyes Center complexand until then known as UniversityHall #4, the building has 131 roomsthat house about 225 men and wom-en of all undergraduate classes.

TJie renaming was a means of rec-ognizing the record sum raised for theCornell Fund during the class's Fifty-fifth Reunion year. 'Eighteen had seta goal of $200,000 last September,but by Reunion the class had con-tributed $470,000 to the year's Fund,the most ever raised by a single classin a single year.

The contribution of John Knight'18, the newspaper publisher, ac-counted for nearly half the total. Also


Dedicating the hall newly named for their class are (from left) Elbert Tuttle,William White, Jane Foster, Ellis Robison, and President Corson.

singled out for special mention wasJane Foster, whose contributions tothe university over the years werementioned at the ceremony asshowing exceptional generosity.

Miss Foster told me she remembersher Cornell days with pleasure. ALaw student at a time when Law wasan undergraduate course, she livedwith Prof, and Mrs. William OgdenKerr her first three years on the Hill.Perhaps because of this family settingshe felt welcome and respected oncampus. Perhaps also, it was the un-usual tolerance of male Law students.While the Sun was printing sloganslike "Women Go Home" at the time,men in the Law School were accept-ing their female classmates.

"But I never thought of myself as awoman first," she explained. "Whenthere was a problem, I went to thedean of the Law School, not to thedean of women, as expected."

When I asked Dagmar SchmidtWright, women's representative to theFund for '18, why so many male stu-dents married coeds when there wasso much hostility towards them oncampus, she gave me a jolly laugh."Because we were attractive!" It wasjust the style to be against women,she said, "but we had wonderful times,tobogganing and such.

"I loved Cornell, and always will."She herself has been married to aCornellian for fifty-four years.

"This year the men invited us to

have the class picture with them forthe first time. And we've been shar-ing class dinners and breakfasts forsome years." Apparently '18 is in thespirit of '73.

Both Miss Foster and Mrs. Wrightshow a strength of character and alively positiveness about life thatwomen today might emulate. Theirclassmate Judge Elbert Tuttle told mehow proud he is that the first woman—Joanna Donloil '18—was put on themasthead when he worked for theCORNELL ALUMNI NEWS, 1921-23. Itmay have been some fifty years ago,but the light of liberation was alreadyin some people's eyes.

There is no small appropriatenessin the fact that Class of 1918 Hallnow houses both men and women stu-dents.

Earlier in the day I had sat at theAssociation of Class Officers' break-fast between Dick Reynolds '15 andJudge Tuttle. Both recalled the shad-ow of war along with their othermemories of Cornell.

On hearing reports that the Classesof '18, '43, and '68 were active nowin Cornell affairs, Judge Tuttle tookthe floor to tell the gathering that theexperience of sacrifice in World WarI may have made students morewilling to give of themselves, in activ-ities such as those of Cornell. Per-haps that's why '18, '43, and '68make such a good Reunion showing,he suggested.

Dick Reynolds's face went whiteand drawn as he said quietly aside,"We lost quite a few, in the trenches.When you go over the top and theystart shelling . . ."

Not all reminiscences are alwayspleasant.

Lucy Jar vis.-One of UsWhen Lucy Jarvis addresses an audi-ence, she is very much "onstage." Herpacing is flawless—she pauses brieflyfor the inevitable wave of laughterafter a punchline but moves on to thenext anecdote while her listeners arestill chuckling. Her flashing black eyesstudy the audience, hungry for signsof response. Properly fed, she's mag-nificent.

And we fed her. We loved her, andshe knew it. We were all Cornellwomen, some of us working herenow, others Reuning. Lucy Jarvis '38called us her "peers" and told us rec-ognition from us meant more to herthan Emmys or citations from heads-of-state. We didn't really believe her,but we wanted to. We were at theCornell Women's Breakfast on Satur-day morning in the Statler Ballroom,but we felt ourselves a part of LucyJarvis' glamorous, celebrity-studdedworld. She swept us along on a tourof the Louvre, let us listen while shetalked to Khrushchev, and wanderedthe streets of the Forbidden Citywith us. When we left the Statler, wewere packing suitcases for Peking andplanning a stopover in Iran to chatwith the Empress.

In 1938, Lucy Howard left Cornellwith a BS in Home Ec and severalyears' experience working in studentdramatics and publications {CornellWidow editorial board). "That waswhen I learned to schedule my time,"she says, "and fit twenty-six hours ofactivity into every day." She did gradu-ate work at Columbia and the NewSchool for Social Research, spent ayear in research at Cornell MedicalCenter, and then worked as directorof special promotion for packagedfoods at the Beech-Nut company.

She was married in 1940 to SergeJarvis, a Russian-born attorney whospecializes in corporate and interna-tional law. Their children, Barbara(now a film-maker) and Peter (in theimport business), were born a few


years later, and Mrs. Jarvis suspendedher career for a decade or so.

In the '50s, she became associatefoods editor for McCalΓs, supervisedspecial projects for Talent Associates,was woman's TV editor for PatheNews and co-produced (with MarthaRoundtree) the syndicated radio pro-gram "Capital Close-Up."

Lucy Jarvis became NBC-TV's firstwoman producer in 1960. Since then,she has piled up an impressive list ofhighly successful documentary pro-ductions, specials that deal with awide variety of social and culturalissues. Blind to locks and deaf to"no," she has steam-rolled her wayinto super-secret Scotland Yard andcharmed Picasso into appearing on-camera for a rare interview.

Her specials have delighted and in-formed TV audiences, as well as re-sulting in public action and criticalaccolades. "Who Shall Live?" stimu-lated the federal 'government to grant$6 million for artificial kidney cen-ters. "The Kremlin" won an Emmyand McCalΓs Golden Mike Award in1963; the next year "The Louvre" won14 national and international awards,including six Emmys, the Peabody,

and the Radio-TV Critics Award. For"Cry Help!" in 1970, Mrs. Jarvis wonthe first award given to the TV indus-try by the National Association forMental Health.

"But I don't need awards to keepme working," she said. "I love what Ido—I get extraordinary pleasure frommy work." She sees her role in com-munications as two-fold. Through so-cial documentaries, she tries to givethe public a "full and accurate pictureof the serious problems facing us inthe hope that something will bedone." With the "glamour shows," shehopes to foster understanding of diff-erent cultures.

The announced topic was "Wom-en's Role in Communications" but weheard about "One Woman's Role," en-joying thoroughly the many anecdotesthat woman told so entertainingly.

"What did she say?" a friend askedme later that day. "Well," I said, "shetold lots of amusing stories aboutwhat she said to Khrushchev and what

JFK said to her and how she'd mixedup her Chinese and told Chou-en-laithat he was honored to meet her and. . ." It didn't sound, as I told it,nearly so exciting as it had been.

Why did I applaud so furiously,rising to my feet with the rest of theaudience? Mrs. Jarvis had risen tooand joined in, explaining: "In Chinawhen a theater audience applauds theperformers return the compliment."

I think we were applauding LucyJarvis rather than her speech, and wewere also applauding ourselves. Shehad made us identify with her, and letus think we too could be "whirl-winds," "dynamos", "wonder-women." After all, she had told usshe was one of us.

A Debate andSome OpinionsReunion was different in 1938 whenHarry Southard '13 attended hisTwenty-fifth. In those days the beertent was in the middle of thequadrangle, all day long, so you hadto pass through it on your way any-where. Sometimes, recalls Harry, youwent in and never got out.

"It was more fun and play then,"

he says, "more hijinks. That was be-fore the idea of adult education."

This Reunion's booths in BartonHall and the near-capacity crowd inStatler Auditorium Saturday morningfor a debate on freedom of the pressunderscored his remarks. The forumwas a sober event.

TV producer Lucy Jarvis '38 spokefirst, defending the integrity of TVnews coverage. Former reporterStuart Loory '54 said the problem

today is the timidity of the press. Thethird speaker, ̂ Rep. Barber Conable'43, replied that on the contrary, thepress today has increasing power:"Nobody elects your favorite com-mentator" yet it is he who interpretsour world for us.

Roger Cramton, soon to takeoffice as dean of Cornell's LawSchool, went farther in defining press-lawyer and press-government rela-tions, saying that today there existtwo warring camps, "journalists andlawyers." The audience was respon-sive, even emotional, during thesometimes bitter debate that fol-lowed. At one point the audience wasasked by moderator John Knight if itthought the press had done well inreporting Watergate. A clear majorityof the hands raised reflected that theaudience thought it had.

But booths and forums were onlyone side of Reunion '73. The mainbeer tent on Saturday night, with twobands alternating Dixie with semi-rock, seemed to generate the spiritthat Harry Southard missed else-where. Gray heads mingled with shinyblonde ones in the bobbing crowd. Inanything from blue jeans to longgowns, each Cornellian danced hisown kind of dance. —KC


University

Crowded Fall After a Busy SummerWhen classes resume on Labor Day,September 3, for Cornell's 106thacademic year, university enrollmentis expected to be only about 100 morethan last fall but administrators arefreely predicting a major housingshortage for new students.

The campus is expecting 2,610freshman and 775 new undergraduatetransfer students, but has fewer uni-versity-owned rooms available forthem because students returning fromlast spring have already taken nearlytwice as many university rooms as inthe previous year.

The Office of the Dean of Studentssaid about 400 freshmen, and 400transfer and new graduate studentswould be without permanent rooms atthe start of fall term. Half of thefreshmen will be assigned space indormitory lounges until they can ίindpermanent rooms. The remaining 600of the two groups will have to hope tofind private rooms near campus afterthey arrive in late August.

Total enrollment on the Ithacacampus is expected to inch close tothe 16,000 figure this year. Enroll-ment stood at 15,841 in October1972, the official tally for the fallterm.

Students return to a campus thathad been busier than usual for sum-mertime: Rioting visitors had forcedcancellation of plans for outdoor rockmusic concerts, Alumni University hadrecord-high attendance, a shakeup wasunder way in the Safety Division, anda professor accused of not performinghis academic duties was allowed toretire early.

The university's fiscal year, whichended June 30, closed amid good newsand bad. On the good side was wordthat the Cornell Fund had raised arecord $4 million-plus in 1972-73; onthe bad that a number of the universi-ty's break-even operations, includingdining, could not be operated on apay-as-you-go basis.

This was the -second time Cornellhad raised $4 million in its annualgiving program. The first v/as in

1969-70, assisted by a $1 million chal-lenge gift from Nicholas Noyes '08,when the total was $4,005,000. Nochallenges were used this past year,and the total was $4,008,430.50. TheFund will publish a full report on itsachievement in the October issue ofthe NEWS.

Alumni University, in its sixth yearof summer operation, had a total en-rollment of 510 adults during theregular four-week program, as well as300 children. CAU also conductedshort courses in ornithology, horticul-ture, and the environment.

The Safety Division was undergoingan investigation by the assistant toPresident Corson, to whom it reports.One veteran sergeant had been fired,accused in an affidavit by a buildingguard of taking coins from a campusparking meter. The sergeant has de-nied the charges. A captain in thedivision was suspended with pay untilthe study was completed.

Trustees of the university in mid-summer endorsed a presidential rec-ommendation that Prof. John D.Hartman, PhD '33, vegetable crops,be allowed to retire in February 1974,a year and a half before his normalretirement date. He had been accusedby the new chairman of his depart-ment of not performing teaching andresearch duties in the department formore than four years.

His case was heard by a facultyhearing board, which endorsed thesuggestion for early retirement. A uni-versity press release described the set-tlement as a "compromise." If thecharged had been substantiated, Hart-man could have been dismissed. Hart-man, who has been on the staff andfaculty for more than thirty years,said his interests "started changingover in my field, from vegetable cropsto the general problem of education."He had been active in university po-litical life, supporting continuance ofROTC and in other matters before theUniversity Faculty. He said he "agreedto retire," was not "forced to retire."

The hearing board is understood

not to have pressed the case to afinding of facts, allowing the parties tothe dispute instead to work out theultimate solution. The case was mademore difficult by the lack of clear-cutstatements of faculty or universitypolicy on the duties of professors, aquestion likely to be gone into in moredetail soon by the Faculty Council ofRepresentatives and the academicdeans. The case was the first broughtin the twenty-two years since the Fac-ulty, at the height of the McCarthyera, set up procedures for bringingcharges against professors.

Plans to conduct popular musicconcerts in Schoellkopf Stadium endedafter one aborted concert. The leadgroup, Deep Purple, failed to performJune 12 at a night concert and severalhundred persons in the crowd of 15,-000 rushed the stage when soundequipment was removed. A leased pi-ano and much of the temporary stagewere destroyed, broken glass wasstrewn on the Poly-Turf field, andother damage done.

The Cornell Concert Commission,which arranges campus concerts dur-ing the school year, sustained no lossesin the venture, which it had spon-sored; insurance and refunds coveredother losses to the university and pa-trons. A regular year of indoor con-certs is planned for the fall and springterms.

The last of twelve persons accusedof riot, arson, and lesser charges in thetrashing of the campus and College-town on May 11, 1972, has beencleared of all charges. Prosecutorsdropped cases against nine defendants,two'won acquittal in trials, and onewho faced three charges was acquittedon two and had a hung jury on theother. Six of the twelve accused wereCornell students.

Knappof Human Ecology. Barlow, who wasdean of the college at Wesleyan beforecoming to Cornell, will work on whatwere described at the time of his ap-pointment as "academic support prob-lems" within the university.

Dr. Daphne Roe, an associate pro-fessor in the school, is the acting deanof Nutrition. Plans are under way toreorganize the university's programs innutrition, and Dr. Roe, a practicingdermatologist, teacher, and research-er, agreed to serve until the reorgani-zation is completed. She succeedsRichard H. Barnes, dean since 1956,who has been named to the JamesJamison professorship of nutrition.

With the retirement of incumbentsfrom the chairs, four professors havebeen named to endowed professor-ships: poet A. R. Ammons, English, isthe new Goldwin Smith professor ofpoetry: Karel Husa, the Pulitzer-

Prize-winning composer and conduc-tor, is the new Kappa Alpha professorof music; Robert M. Palmer, com-poser and pianist, is the new GivenFoundation professor of music; andliterary scholar and critic M. H,Abrams is the new Class of 1916 pro-fessor of English.

The TeamsAll three of Cornell's major varsityteams face the fall with hopes of chal-lenging for Ivy honors, and in eachsport Penn is the predicted winner.

Prospects for the football team areoutlined in the Ivy Football Preview,pages 37 to 48 in this issue.

The soccer team faces an uphillfight for honors in both Ivy and Na-tional Collegiate competition, aftermaking its first trip to the four-teamNCAA finals last season. The entirestarting front line has been lost tograduation, along with the team'sgoalie and several other key players.

Penn, undefeated in Ivy play formore than two years, is the clear fa-vorite again this year, with Cornell,

Brown, and Harvard rated as the like-ly contenders. Cornell tied Brown forthird last year, losing to Penn 2-3 onlate goals and to Harvard.

Gone are goalie Bruce Arena, for-wards Chris Agoliati, Victor Huerta,and Roger London, all to graduation,and Bill Murray '74 who has decidedto concentrate on hockey.

The keys to the '73 team are ex-pected to be halfback Kip Jordan '74,all-Ivy last year, and wing Joe Mui'76, up from a record-breaking yearas a freshman and billed by CoachDan Wood as the most exciting playerto come up in Cornell's history. He isChinese by birth, and grew up inCanada. Three transfers are alsoprominent in Wood's plans, fullbackKeith Garde '75 from Nassau Com-munity College, and forwards EinarThorarinsson and Bill Sobolewski,both from Monroe Community Col-lege. The first two were junior collegeAll-Americans last year. Thorarinssonis from Iceland and Sobolewski fromPoland; both are taking out US citi-zenship.

Last year's most improved player,Mike Pilarz '74, is expected to be thefourth forward. The second halfbackspot is expected to be a tossup amongtwo fullbacks from last year, Fernan-do Nasmyth '74 and David Yahn '74.The other fullbacks are likely to beJeff Holbrook '75 and Andy Rosen-berg '74, if Rosenberg mends from aleg operation.

In goal, the Red will have Jon Ross'75, backup to Arena last year andunscored on in varsity competitionduring the three-plus games he han-dled, and John Ebel '76, last year'sfrosh goalie.

Agoliati and Arena were drafted bythe North American Soccer League'schampion New York Cosmos andhave played in their exhibition gamesthis summer. Huerta was cut by theRochester Lancers of the same proleague, and is in his native Ecuadorfor the summer. Agoliati will be oncampus coaching the freshman teamthis fall.

In cross country, Jack Warnerhopes to improve on last fall's sixthplace finish in the Heptagonals and4-2 dual meet record. He lost Capt.Tim Cahill, Dave Oertel, and MarkLester to graduation.

Returning are Capt. Phil Collins '74who was injured the season before andhad an in-and-out season last year;

Ray deMarco '75, the Heps outdoorthree-mile champion last year; MarkCurtis '76, all-Ivy as a freshman; BobAnastasio '74, the track captain; BobCartin '75, Tom Patterson '75, andDan Abrose '76.

Entering freshmen of promise in-clude John Botts of Windsor, Ontario,a footballer with no high school ex-perience in cross country but theequivalent of a 4:15 mile under hisbelt; Craig Stanley of Crete, Illinois, a9:29 two-miler; and Frank Brown ofWantagh, a 9:26 two-miler.

Cornell - Penn tied Oxford - Cam-bridge 8-8 in a Reunion weekendtrack meet that concluded the springsports season for Cornell. Cornell'swinners were Carl Shields '76 in theshot put with 48 feet 716, Mike Mac-Neil '74 in the 440 at 48.8, and BobAnastasio in the 880 at 1:52.

Other Cornellians who placed wereEarl Trent '76, third in the 220; JohnMcKeown '73, second in the 440;Tom Patterson, third in the mile; andJim Leonard '75, third in the triplejump.

On the pro football front, Cornel-lians had three prospects to watch forthe coming year, Pete Gogolak '64,kicker with the New York Giants, andEd Marinaro '72, hoping to hold aspot as a running back with the Min-nesota Vikings, both in the NationalFootball League, and George Milose-vic '73, who was vying for a place onhis hometown Hamilton Tiger-Cats inthe Canadian Football League as anend.
