X HE door hung open in the unmistakable way that
bespeaks an empty room; and Professor Riley left
Christmas-Saucon Hall in the Spring of 1958. Behind
him lingered the shadow of twenty-five years of schol-
arship and service, calm words for the many who
sought his advice, and mute words that filled the books
that surrounded him, and were his life. To Professor
Edgar H. Riley, we dedicate the 1959 Epitome.

Professor Riley often took time to counsel
the many students who sought his advice.
Prologue
Memories of Lehigh, born of a maze of personal
impressions, fade as we grow older, and often are
finally forgotten. The people and names that once
seemed etched in the mind, disappear, leaving only
scattered recollections of college life.
As an antidote to time's acidity, the Epitome stands
as an unchangeable record of those events which were
most significant. A concise summary of University days,
it represents a general approach to the individual
reaction. The mosaic of faces that populated under-
graduate life is imprinted on Epitome's pages, and
need only be seen to be remembered.
To the student, the yearbook may only be froth,
unappreciated without the veil of years to separate
him from first-hand impressions. For the graduate,
however, it is his final recollection of Lehigh and
student life, memories of those years which fade in
his mind, but lie preserved and waiting in the Epitome.
From the Lookout high over the campus, he views these
build in PS in u-hich he lived and attended classes.
/iS*
In a moment of solitude, this senior reflects on his days at
Lehigh, and ponders the future auay from the campus.

Trustees Johnson and Cort were two of Lehigh's most
outstanding and faithful alumni, achieving prominence
in their fields, and recognition as major University
benefactors.
Professor Cheney served with distinction in the class-
room, guiding students in their preparation for later
life. Fred Krehbiel will be long remembered as an
outstanding athlete, as a fellow senior, and most im-

Administration
tke heart of the earn pus
The heart of Lehigh's complex administrative life-
line is the Alumni Memorial Building, erected in
memory of the Lehigh men who served in World
War I, and in particular to the forty-six who gave
their lives. The north wing of the building houses
the Offices of the Bursar, and the Director of Admis-
sion. In the south wing are the Offices of the President,
Vice-President, Dean of Students, Registrar, Superin-
tendent of Buildings and Grounds, and business of-
fices. Here, too, is the home of the students' newest
"enemy" — the IBM machine, which, among other
things, makes out rosters and grades.
The duties of the administration are many and com-
plex, ranging from fiscal control to maintaining con-
tacts with industry, alumni, parents of students, and
other institutions of higher learning. It is here, also,
that many physical developments at Lehigh are plan-
ned and accomplished, as exemplified in the recent
renovation of the Alumni Building itself.
The Admission Office is highly respected for its abil-
Incoming freshmen complete registration for Freshman Week

ity to select qualified students for Lehigh. Due to
Lehigh's limited enrollment, the director and his statf
must reject approximately eighty per cent of the ap-
plications for admission to the three undergraduate
colleges. This fact, plus the careful weighing of each
applicant's abilities and merits, insure that only the
highest caliber students are admitted.
The Registrar and the Dean of Students are re-
sponsible for registration and for the housing and
feeding of students, respectively, while the Bursar
is in charge of receiving and distributing the Uni-
versity's funds.
The Public Information Office and the Alumni
Office are also located in the administration headquar-
ters. The Information Office prepares news of Lehigh
activities for newspapers and magazines, while the
Alumni Office maintains contact, by both personal and
printed means, with all Lehigh graduates.

Lehigh's modern, well-equipped Student Health
Center is another product of the recent modernization
and building program. The spacious, three-story struc-
ture was erected in 1955. It serves the routine medical
needs of Lehigh students and faculty. If more exten-
sive attention is rec]uired, the patient is sent home or
to a local hospital. Due to the importance of its func-
tion, the Health Center is never closed; a night attend-
ant is on duty from 5 P.M. to 8 A.M., and limited fa-
cilities are available on weekends.
The LIniversity Library, dedicated in 1877 by Asa
Packer, is a five-story structure built of native stone,
with limestone trim. An addition, financed by gifts of
the alumni, was completed in 1929 which enlarged the
library to its present size and provided adequate seat-
ing for 300. Considered one of the finest in Pennsyl-
vania, it contains over 400,000 volumes, with an ac-
cession rate of 10,000 books per year.

College of
Arts and Science
. , . the Idea as well as the fact
Under the name "School o£ General Literature", the
College of Arts and Science was a part of the original
plan of Lehigh, and remains an integral part of the
University today. The courses offered by the college
cover a vi'ide range of learning. Even the engineering
students are exposed to the arts courses in half of
their freshman subjects, and in electives scattered
throughout their curriculum. In fact, forty per cent of
the grades given each semester by the University are
in arts or science courses.
Perhaps the main attraction of the College of Arts
and Science is the academic independence that it offers
the student. The range and number of electives avail-
able make the thoroughness and broadness of a man's
education dependent only upon his interests.
During the first two years of the undergraduate's
training, the college emphasizes a comprehensive study
of all the broad areas of knowledge — the humanities,
the natural and physical sciences, and the social
sciences — and during the junior and senior years the
student is given a thorough background in his chosen

field of major interest. To assure the success of this
program, the college maintains a competent staff of
advisers and curriculum directors.
Many students interested in medicine, law, or similar
graduate fields in which Lehigh does not offer a degree
are given an outstanding preparatory background that
enables them to attend any advanced school in the
nation.
Schools all over the country have slowly come to
the realization that to be a success in the world the
college graduate in engineering must not only possess
the highest technical skills, but must also have an
appreciation for the arts. In order to meet this chal-
The character of Lamherton Hall has
changed once again as it becomes the new
home of three departments.
lenge, the College of Arts and Science has teamed up
with the College of Engineering to offer an outstand-
ing five-year combined course in arts and engineering
to the Lehigh student.
Proof of the quality of education administered by
the College of Arts and Science is found in the suc-
cess of its graduates. Many now hold teaching and
administrative posts in colleges throughout the coun-
try. One out of five graduates has risen to the presi-
dency, vice-presidency, or board of directors of his
company, and three of the present members of Le-
high's Board of Trustees hold B.A. degrees from the
college.

. , . for ej^celle^ce in scholastic ability
Of all the collegiate scholastic honoraries, Phi Beta
Kappa is probably the most universally known and
respected. Founded at the College o£ William and
Mary in 1776, it is the original Greek-letter fraternity.
The Lehigh chapter, chartered in 1887, has done much
to inspire and honor high scholastic achievement.
Although the organization is sponsored by the Col-
lege of Arts and Science, and is primarily for the
liberal arts students, Lehigh's chapter also initiates
four undergraduates from the Engineering College each
year. The engineers selected are among the few in
the country to hold a Phi Beta Kappa key. The greater
part of the membership comes from students selected
from the top ten per cent of the arts seniors.

, . . tke most outst abiding freshmen
For the past thirty years the top three per cent o£
the freshman class at Lehigh has been honored with
membership in Phi Eta Sigma, the national freshman
scholastic fraternity. The society's main objective is to
encourage high academic achievement among the
University's neophytes. For this purpose. Phi Eta
Sigma presents a booklet of study hints to each fresh-
man, and increases interest in studies by awarding a
plaque to the freshman living group with the highest
average. The group annually sends a representative to
the national Phi Eta Sigma convention, where ideas
are exchanged for inspiring, developing, and reward-
ing high freshman scholastic achievement.

Several honoraries are sponsored by the College of
Arts and Science for students with unusual aptitude
and great interest in a particular field. History enthus-
iasts are welcomed into the national history fraternity.
Phi Alpha Theta. The Lehigh chapter was chartered
in 1940 and had eighteen active members this year.
Initiates were chosen from candidates with at least
a B average in twelve hours of history and government
subjects. Two banquets and speakers at monthly meet-
ings gave the group an active schedule. Delegates were
sent to the national convention in Williamsburg.
Pre-med students of high ability are invited to join
Alpha Epsilon Delta. This year the Lehigh chapter
celebrated its twenty-fifth year on campus. Its nine
active members enjoyed hearing prominent speakers
from the medical profession at their meetings.
Pi Mu Epsilon selected its members from students
who had demonstrated their ability and interest in
mathematics by maintaining an A average in twelve
hours of math courses. Monthly meetings with em-
inent speakers in the "numbers racket" and the annual
banquet were the main activities of the society this
year.
The Psychology Department is represented by Psi
Chi. This honorary fraternity's members not only heard
important speakers, but also delivered their own lec-
tures for the Muhlenberg Psychology Club. The Psi
Chis, who must have a B average in eight hours of
psychology courses, were also very active socially, fea-
turing a picnic, a banquet, and a Christmas party.

Delta Omicron Theta
Delta Omicron Theta is the debate society of Le-
high. It is a debating honorary, but maintains a sub-
ordinate debate club as an integral part of the group.
The two participate in their activities together and
depend upon one another. The debate club has an
intercollegiate debate schedule extending from Sep-
tember to May. The competitors are placed in either
a novice or regular class, depending upon their ex-
perience.
Membership in DOT is reached through active par-
ticipation in the debate activities for at least three
semesters, a point system being used to determine
membership. Debating activities are open to all under-
graduates, and the club's membership this year rostered
twenty-four men, ten of whom were also active mem-
bers of the honorary society. The Lehigh chapter earned
recognition in Eastern debate circles during this school
year as several members were awarded certificates of
merit, which indicate superior debating in the various
annual round-robin tournaments.

The College of Arts and Science sponsors many
course societies for students who wish to develop their
specific academic interests outside the classroom. For
government and political specialists there is the Politi-
cal Science Assembly, while the physics and mathe-
matics adherents may find the activities of the Ameri-
can Institute of Physics and the Newtonian Society to
their liking. Pre-med students have an opportunity to
join the Robert W. Hall Society, and those with a bent
for broadcasting participate in the Radio Workshop.
The German Club and the Combined Chemical Society
fill out the varied list of arts course societies at Lehigh.

AFROTC and ROTC
. . . drilUng and parading
"Platoon sergeants, take charge o£ your platoons
and proceed with the prescribed drill!" Thus began
many a Monday afternoon drill for the Army ROTC.
And as the Army basics paraded under the commands
of their upperclass officers, their classmates in blue
were also drilling under the cadet Air Force officers.
These familiar drills, however, were only a part of
the Reserve Officers Training Corps program at Le-
high. Indeed, the most important activities were the
classroom meetings and the many military extracur-
ricular programs.
Army and Air Force ROTC at the University are
organized basically the same as at hundreds of colleges
and universities throughout the nation. Two years of
the basic course are required of the cadet, and upon
successful completion of this area of study, the top
men in the class are afforded the opportunity to take
the advanced program, which eventually permits them
to receive their second lieutenant's commissions. The
program does more than just give a man the chance
Did the inspector pull a funny? This cadet's smile would seem
to indicate so — or maybe he's just camera shy.
to enter the services as an officer, for ':he cadet develops
a sense of responsibility, obedience and leadership
which molds his entire character, and helps him greatly
in later life.
In conjunction with the military program, students
may belong to any of the numerous extracurricular
military organizations and societies.
Scabbard and Blade, a national military organiza-
tion founded in 1922, is a combined Army and Air
Force honorary society whose members are chosen
from the ranks of the advanced corps on the basis of
scholarship and leadership qualifications. This year, as
usual, the society awarded a trophy to the outstanding
cadet in the combined corps.
Arnold Air Society, the Air Force ROTC national
honorary corps, attempted to further the concept,
mission, and tradition of the Air Force by encouraging
During drill, cadets are often required to
undergo a rigid inspection administered by
members of the Air Force cadre.

The basic cadet's counterpart o£ the Arnold Air
Society is the Sabre Society, which maintained basically
the same objectives and standards.
Upperclassmen interested in small bore rifle com-
petition participated on the Varsity Rifle Squad, and
all ROTC cadets (including freshmen) were eligible
to join either the Army or Air Force Rifle Teams.
Both these teams gave the student an excellent op-
portunity to acquire the skills of competitive shooting
through active participation.
Many students found the Society of American Mili-

civilian engineers devoted to the interests of national
defense, a worthwhile group. Lectures and informal

An integral part of the Sabre Society was the Air
Force Drill Team, which performed in competitions
throughout the entire nation. Along with the members
of the Pershing Rifles, the Drill Team served as ushers
at all home football games and many of the other
athletic contests held at Lehigh.
The well-known Pershing Rifles, national military
organization founded shortly after World War I, and
named after General John J. Pershing, acquainted its
members with the friendship and fellowship which is
an important factor in our military organization. The
well-disciplined Company F-5 of PR's Crack Drill

College of
Business Administration
. - . tra'mhg 'complete' busmssmen
The goal of the College of Business Administration
is to produce the complete businessman. With this aim
in mind, the college has abandoned any teaching system
which would emphasize only the acquisition of specific
skills, and has substituted a broad training program
which embraces every facet of the business world. It
trys to instill the qualities of versatility and adapta-
bility, and strives to lay a strong foundation upon
which many different careers in fields of business may
be built after graduation. This sound foundation can
only be developed through an emphasis on funda-
mentals, and accordingly the student is required to
learn the principles that underlie all businesses.
In addition to business courses, the Lehigh "business-
man" also takes many courses in the Arts and Engineer-
ing Colleges. It is recognized that for a successful career
he must be a complete individual. His training must
include the subjects that will give him a knowledge
and understanding of the cultural and humanistic
concepts of our modern world.
Learning to use machine computers comprises an important
part of the instruction received by students in business.

the books before a quiz.
Dean Allen counsels two business men con-
cerning di-fficulties each has encountered in
his 771 ajar program.
Although the college's guiding principle is broad
training, it realizes that it is also an asset to concen-
trate on some particular field of business. The college
offers seven fields of specialization: accounting, eco-
nomics, economic statistics, finance, management,
marketing, and general business. These "majors" are
taught through the facilities of one or more of the
school's three departments: Accounting, Finance, and
Economics and Sociology.
The Accounting Department presents the techniques
for recording, classifying, summarizing, and interpret-
ing business activities. Accounting today is one of the
most important of professions. As industry becomes

more and more involved, the executive needs the tools
of accounting to enable him to understand and study
linancial reports. The ability to analyze efficiently the
multitude of details and facts of past operations is
necessary so that he can make decisions which will
help him shape his future policies more intelligently.
A thorough knowledge of accounting is indispensable
for the future executive.
However, a knowledge of accounting alone is not
sufficient to make the complete, well-rounded business-
man. The business student also takes courses in the

monetary affairs. It is foolhardy for an individual to

tary understanding of his medium of exchange. Courses
stress the intricacies of money and banking, the struc-
ture of corporations, and the mechanisms of invest-
ment.
Last, but not least, is the Department of Economics
and Sociology. This sector of the Business College
offers courses which give the student an ability to use
the present and past as a basis to predict what the
future will hold for his particular firm or the economy
as a whole. He is also given the opportunity to take
a variety of marketing courses such as retailing, ad-
vertising, and transportation, which acquaint him
with the complexities of moving the manufactured
product from the assembly line to the consumer. He
gets an insight into our modern social structure, and
also acquires a general knowledge of other societies
throughout the world. This training is essential to the
well-informed businessman.
All in all, the graduate of the College of Business
Administration has received, along with the special
skills in his chosen field, a deeper, richer understand-
ing of capitalism and its effects and a fuller apprecia-
tion of the complex economies that make up our cul-
ture. Thus the school achieves its aim of endowing
the student with a broad background in business.

Beta Gamma Sigma
. , . top busmssmcH
In almost every field of endeavor honorary organ-
izations have been formed to recognize the superior
accomplishments and achievements of a distinguished
few. In the field of business, Beta Gamma Sigma was
created to this end. Every year a select group of stu-
dents, which consists of the highest three per cent of
the junior class and the top ten per cent of the gradu-
ating class, is elected to this organization.
These individuals become members with the knowl-
edge that they will strive, as stated in the society's
charter, to promote "the advancement and spread of
education in the science of business and to foster prin-
ciples of honesty and integrity in business practice".

Alpha Kappa Psi
Alpha Kappa Psi, the national commerce fraternity,
came to the Lehigh campus in 1924. Since then it has
grown in proportions, and today it plays an important
role in the sphere of the business student.
According to its charter, its main objectives are: to
further the individual welfare of its members; to foster
scientific research in the fields of commerce, accounts,
and finance; to educate the public to appreciate and
demand higher ideals; and to promote and advance in
institutions of college rank, courses leading to degrees
in business administration.

it}', was founded at Lehigh in 1940. Since then it has
spread to other campuses throughout the United States,
so that now^ the group claims over 5,000 members in
eight}'-six active chapters.
Lambda Mu Sigma aims to keep its members well-
informed on the current trends in marketing, and to
familiarize them with the practical problems encoun-
tered in marketing and allied fields. The society
achieves this goal by featuring eminent speakers in the
business world at its meetings. Field trips to local busi-
ness operations also prove to be very rewarding.

Accounting Society
The Accounting Society was founded in 1952 by
Professor Roy B. Cowin. The main purpose of the
organization is to give accounting majors, and also any
other interested students, an opportunity to meet lead-
ers in the accounting profession. At the society's meet-
ings throughout the year, various individuals who are
well known in the accounting field were invited to talk
to the group about their work.
Discussion was not limited to purely theoretical
topics, for many times the speakers would cite their
own practical experiences in the business world. This
gave students an insight into their chosen profession
which could never be gained by mere classroom work.
The Accounting Society, moreover, is not purely an
academic group. A year of rewarding fellowship was
culminated by the annual picnic in May.

. . . relating selenee a^d technology
Although Lehigh is a university, a large part o£
its reputation is due to the high quality of the Col-
lege o£ Engineering. One of the best faculties in the
nation and a richly endowed physical plant combine
to place Lehigh high on the list of the top engineering
schools in the country.
This high standing is reflected in the confidence
in Lehigh exhibited by the industries of the nation.
No fewer than fifty-seven company-endowed scholar-
ships, many supporting two or more undergraduates,
as well as twenty-four industrially supported fellow-
ships were available last year. The large number of
products sent to Lehigh, from all parts of the country,
for testing and development is another acknowledg-
ment of engineering quality.
Of the eleven buildings on the campus used only
for instruction, five are devoted solely to engineering
subjects. About sixty-seven per cent of the under-
graduates in any year are enrolled in an engineering
curriculum as are the greater portion of the graduate
students, while three of the departments have their

own collections of technical volumes. Even the nick-
name "Engineers" reflects the Lehigh specialty. Out
of the eleven major options offered by the University,
one can be found that will prepare a man for almost
any job in industry, and with a Lehigh diploma the
chances of getting the job are good.
One of the characteristics of the College of Engi-
neering is constant self-improvement and advancement.
Each year every department comes up with changes
and ideas that keep Lehigh abreast of the best in the
nation, and 1958 was no exception. The Civil Engi-
neering staff has been engaged in testmg the prototype
of a new bridge design that has attracted national
attention (research began on pump design for the U.S.
Army), and the testing machine in Fritz Lab had its
usual active season. Members of the Mechanical Engi-
neering faculty published two texts as well as numer-
ous papers. A series of experiments with heat transfer
kept the equipment in Packard Lab in high gear. Chem-

Department was brightened by $140,000 worth of new
equipment, including some designed by the staff, and
a course in radio chemistry was begun. Metallurgy con-
tinued its program with industry, and Electrical Engi-
neering enjoyed its first year with its new computer.
Cox Lab and the Mining Department sponsored the
same active summer field program. The Engineering
Physics Department graduated another group of well-
trained research engineers. The year was full of change,
benefiting the student, the college and the nation.
Surrounded by chemicals and laboratory apparatus, a graduate
student in chemical engineering reelects the intense concen-

Born at Lehigh in 1885, Tau Beta Pi has emerged
from its lusty infancy into full maturity with over a
hundred chapters throughout the country. Over the
years the honorary fraternity has acquired a reputation
for choosing as members only those engineering stu-
dents with the highest standards of honor, integrity,
character, and scholarship. Pledges are elected from
the upper eighth of the junior class and the upper
fifth of the senior class.
One of Tau Beta Pi's outstanding activities at Le-
high is the annual freshman slide rule class, which
initiates the engineering neophytes into the mysteries
of the all-important "slip-stick".

Alpha Pi Mu came to Lehigh in 1952, one year after
it was founded at the Georgia Institute of Technology.
Being the only industrial engineering honorary society,
it gives needed recognition to qualified students, in-
forms them of the latest developments in industry,
assists the IE Department in training men of high
caliber, and fosters and maintains high professional
standards in the field of industrial engineering.
Founded in 1952, Chi Epsilon honorary society en-
ables students of civil engineering to gain the benefits
of a national honorary fraternity affiliation. The society
presents films, projects, papers, and speakers at ban-
quets and smokers throughout the year. All meetings
are planned to further acquaint the civil engineering
student with the established practices and new develop-
ments of his profession.

The engineering course society strives to keep its
members abreast of the current advances in their field
and to give them a better understanding of their place
in industry upon graduation. During the meetings,
the student can get an idea of the usefulness and
applicability of the courses he is taking, and may also
speak with his instructors in an informal atmosphere.
The trend towards informality is carried even further
by the social functions which the society sponsors,
whether they be picnics or joint gatherings with other
societies. All of the activities are pointed toward grad-
uating well-rounded engineers, better fitted to take
their place in their chosen profession.
There are seven major engineering course societies:

GRADUATION,
V J>i
the beginning of a career . . ,
Th8 CI3SS of 1959 • • • leavm, with college becoming a fading memory
From the forewarning arrival of carefully packed
trunks to the hastily thrown-together departure as
seniors, the life of a Lehigh man is filled with work
and activity. In retrospect, the feelings of the day
mingle with actual fact to present a panorama of devel-
oping maturity. The worried freshman emerges as a
confident senior, ready to take his place beside the
many others who have passed through our halls.
In the interim, a specialized, typically collegiate way
of life develops which is both fun-filled and challeng-
ing. To the fair citizens of Bethlehem, it must look
rather strange to see dink-topped freshmen charging
down the mountain. The almost blood-thirsty shrieks
and cheers echoing up and down the Valley after a
big game also must cause wonder among those not in
the know. The girls in the area are glad to see that
some 3,000 men live together on the South Side, and
have Houseparties. The class was very kind to these
girls, for it provided Duke Ellington and Dave Bru-
beck at two successive formals.
If the townsman would look carefully, he could see
that the men of 1959 had zest and enthusiasm for more
than social activities. The children entertained at
Christmas each year, the contributions to community
charities, and the support of a Hungarian student on
campus speak for the high ideals of the seniors.
Through active and spectator participation in school
events, the men made the years very successful ones.
And the Class of 1959 also honored its alma mater with
record-breaking participation in the Class Gift Plan.
After the kick-off dinner of the Class Me-
morial Gift Committee, ivorkers pick cards
for contacts during the sales period.
Professor Brennan presents one of the many trophies received
by seniors for leadership, excellence in scholarship, and extra-
curricular activities.
Never to be forgotten are Lehigh parties, and this is a scene
that many graduating seniors will return to on important
football, tvrestling, and alumni weekends.
Follou'ing graduation, seniors, then' parents, and guests spend a few moments at the flag-
pole, the neiv alumni appearing reluctant to depart after four years on South Mountain.

Student Government
. . . CMCouragmg active citizen skip
Student government is the most important non-
academic student activity at Lehigh. It not only over-
sees all other extracurricular activities, but it also has
a voice in almost all of the other facets of University
life which affect the undergraduate. Student govern-
ment is accomplished through Arcadia, the officers
and cabinets of the four undergraduate classes. Inter-
fraternity Council, Residence Halls Council, and Town
Council.
Arcadia is the supreme student governing body at
Lehigh. The council consists of fifteen members, seven
of whom are elected directly by the student body, and
eight appointed by the major student activities — re-
ligion, music, drama and debating, publications, RHC,
Town Council, IFC, and the honoraries. Last year's
Arcadia was the first to be selected by this new system,
and it was generally agreed that the new method
achieved a more complete and a more diverse repre-
sentation of the student body.
The twelfth Arcadia was a hard-working council
which not only compiled an impressive list of specific
Balloting for candidates for Arcadia is accomplished at polls
such as this operated by Alpha Phi Omega.

achievements, but also %yon the confidence and respect
of the faculty and administration. Arcadia was repeat-
edly consulted on important administrative decisions,
and practically all of the solons' suggestions were
accepted. The new freshman ?nd sophomore driving
regulations, for example, were submitted to Arcadia
before they were approved by the administration. The
Arcadians made several suggestions which were
adopted by the administrators, and the revised code
went into effect last Fall.
Arcadia's main responsibility is to represent the best
interests of the student. The twelfth Arcadia accom-
plished this in two main ways: first, by organizing
student opinion and presenting it to the administration;
and second, by representing the Lehigh man to other
colleges and groups throughout the country. President
Larry Wright had the tremendous responsibility of
being the only single representative of the entire Lehigh
student body.
Arcadia's voicing of student opinion was clearly
evident in the recent vacation schedule discontentment.
The student body was very dissatisfied with this year's
schedule, and through Arcadia's protestation, the ad-
ministration agreed to restore the mid-semester and
Thanksgiving vacations next year. Arcadians pressed
for a solution of the parking problem, and new campus
parking facilities have partially alleviated the trouble-
130
131
some situation. Other specific improvements include a
new bulletin board outside the University Center, a
railing in the snack bar, and a reorganization of the
concessions system. In order to give students an ample
opportunity to explore the possibilities of travel abroad,
Arcadia established a travel room in the Center.
On the lighter side, many students felt that spirit
at pep rallies and games would be greatly improved if
our cheer leading squad were augmented by a few
members of the opposite sex. Arcadia went right to
work and organized a squad of enthusiastic Cedar Crest
girls, only to be disappointed when the Athletic Depart-
ment threw cold water on the plan. Arcadia immedi-
ately appropriated $250 for new cheerleadmg uniforms,
taking consolation in the fact that even if Lehigh won't
have beautiful girls leadmg cheers, it will at least have
well-dressed boys!
The twelfth Arcadia also successfully represented
Lehigh throughout the country. Delegates were sent to
the Campus Chest Conference, to a collegiate travel
discussion, and to several student government confer-
ences. Probably Arcadia's greatest achievement this
year was the establishment of the Lehigh Valley Stu-
dent Government Association. Leading the way towards
a strong liaison among local colleges, Arcadia organ-
ized the group last November. The executive commit-
tees of the governing bodies of the five local schools,
Moravian, Muhlenberg, Cedar Crest, Lafayette, and
Lehigh, met to exchange ideas and to discuss problems
common to all of the colleges.
In 1930, Arcadia organized a subordinate body
known as Arcadia Associates. This organization, com-
posed of students interested in working for student
government, performs the two-fold task of training
future student leaders and of accomplishing many
minor tasks which formerly commanded much of Ar-
cadia's time.
One of Arcadia's important delegated duties is that
of appointing student representatives to the student-
faculty committees. Serving on such committees as Stu-
dent Concerts- Lectures, Discipline, Student Activities,
Student Life, and University Center, undergraduates
have the opportunity of making suggestions that may
affect important University policies.
Largely through the work of this year's Arcadia,
student government was able to raise itself to a posi-
tion of greatest prominence on campus. A large num-
ber of candidates for the thirteenth Arcadia and a much
higher vote, gives encouragement that student govern-
ment has finally won the all-important student interest
and will continue to grow at Lehigh.

Class of 1962
Brandishing hula hoops, pin-up pictures, and assorted
other goodies, the 706 members of the Class of 1962
arrived on campus a week later than many of their pre-
decessors. As usual, they represented a wide range of
states and schools. Since they ranged from 5 feet 3
inches to 6 feet 8 inches and from 100 to 250 pounds,
it was hard to describe a typical freshman. But the
Admission Office, which rejects the use of IBM ma-
chines in choosing the members of the incoming class
and relies instead on experience and intuition, again
chose what appeared to be an outstanding group. To
use the freshman terminology, the class is firmly en-
trenched between the ranks of the "squirrels or yoyos"
and the "animals".
There were several innovations in the wealth of
planned activities that greeted the new-comers. Orien-
tation was changed to delete Activities Night, but to
make use of the University Center; it included a series
of feature movies and football films. During Freshman
Week, the Gryphon Society was busy creating a new
code for the yearlings, which went into effect after
approval by the Dean of Students. Basically, representa-
tion on the disciplinary board was changed to give
the freshmen a voting member. Also, committees were
organized in each section for the maintenance of some
order in the active dorms. The committees carried
weight since they had authority to dispense punishment.
In legislative activities, the freshmen took the atti-
tude of big business. The Executive Committee, with
the inclusion of town members, became more repre-
sentative of the entire class. Meeting regularly, the
group was able to dispel many of the problems facing
the class, including financial disagreements with RHC.
Early morning breakfast music was provided by dink-
less frosh with arrangements handled by Cyanide. It
did the Lehigh spirit good to hear rousing school songs
penetrating the pre-dawn mists.
Spirit was the keynote of the social year, too. It
erupted in the Lafayette Weekend festivities several
weeks before the big day. Usually unsuccessful raids
on the sister organization did not kill the spirit. The
pep rally skits, while lacking the ribald humor of
previous years, showed ingenuity and a creativeness
typical of the class. The bonfire and crusade in eve-
ning garb were highly successful despite the usual
profusion of raw eggs from on-lookers.
The Lafayette bonfire blazes to the required sixty-ttvo feet,
a tribute to the constructive and protective efforts of the
industrious freshman class.

Class of 1961
Showing unusual spirit and preparation, the Class
of 1961 began to lay the ground plan for this year's
activities during last Spring semester. Upon return to
campus, they began work immediately on the Dink
Hop, which was held at the end of the first week
of classes. As usual the welcoming function for the
freshmen was a resounding success. For those dates
who arrived early enough, there was the slightly rain-
drenched excitement of the first home football game.
The frosh then "snowed" the fair damsels from
Harcum, Centenary, Cedar Crest, and St. Luke's School
of Nursing with an outstanding meal planned by the
Sophomore Cabinet, and served in the impressive Asa
Packer Room. The evening was climaxed with the dance
which featured the smooth sounds of Matt Gillespie
and orchestra. AH in all, the Dink Hop was a profit-
able event for the freshmen, who initiated their social
life by making a few of those all-important "contacts",
and for the sophomore class, which enjoyed a financial
success.
Coming with a wintry gust and an abundance of
good-looking girls was the major sophomore social
event of the year — Snowball Weekend. It provided the
only big outlet between Houseparty and IFC Weekend.
For early arriving dates on Friday night and again
preceding the dance on Saturday night. Mustard and
Cheese players presented the absorbing drama "Time
Limit". The effect was perfect in helping to create the
cosmopolitan atmosphere of the weekend. Fresh from
their triumph at the Ivy Jazz Band Ball in New York
at Thanksgiving, Lehigh's famed Christmas City Six
held the cushioned audience spellbound for an excit-
ing three-hour jazz concert. The smart and sassy vocal
blendings of the Cliff Clefs also rocked the jazz enthu-
siasts. In the evening, men and their dates swayed to
the music of Walt Simpson and his orchestra at the
big Snowball. The weekend ended in the Gothic splen-
dor of Packer Chapel with the Sunday Christmas Ves-
pers. Dates departed full of praise for the Music
Department, the Class of 1961, and the University.
During the remainder of the year, the Cabinet tried
to get the elusive Lehigh blazers which were a best-
seller even before their appearance on campus. With
a financially successful year drawing to a close, the
Sophomores took time to enjoy each other's company
at a banquet in the Spring.
The industriousness of the sophomore class is exhibited by
the racks of blazers tvaiting to be picked up by the buyers.

Class of I960
Unity and good times were the keynotes of this year
for the Class of I960. As soon as they reached campus
in September, the spirited group moved ahead with
plans for their full calendar of activities. The class
picnic in the early Fall was probably the most success-
ful of its kind held at Lehigh. Clams and liquid refresh-
ment in great abundance set the pace for an all-around
good time for everyone. So popular was the clambake
that other groups immediately borrowed the idea, thus
starting a kind of highly enjoyable campus tradition.
Throughout the first semester, the juniors helped
encourage the growing school spirit on campus with
active participation in pep rallies and football game
cheering sections. Serving to boost spirits considerably
was the Fall weekend planned by the Class Cabinet.
On Friday evening the Danish National Symphony,
as the first attraction of the SCL program, held the
capacity audience in Grace Hall spellbound.
Despite the unfavorable weather and the rather bad
score, Lehigh men and their rain-drenched dates enjoyed
Saturday's game with Buffalo. Especially thrilling was
the Brown and White Band's intricate military drill
which received a much-deserved and precedent- form-
ing ovation from the spectators. The highlight of the
weekend was the appearance of the Gerry Mulligan
quartet. Mulligan and cohorts held the over-flow audi-
ence in their grasp as they drifted through three hours
of smooth sound.
As the Birdland of Bethlehem ended its existence,
the week-enders mounted the formidable ramparts of
Grace Hall to the upper floor where Dick Parry and
company held sway under the auspices of the Gryphon
Society. Thus the tradition of a Lehigh jazz week-end
was started.
The popular newsletter kept the men of '60 well
informed as the Cabinet planned for the biggest social
event of all — Spring Houseparty. All the months of
negotiations and exhausting work seemed worthwhile
as a record number turned out for this gala weekend.
Ending the year on the same note of unity as at the
start, the men joined together for a rousing class ban-
quet. They deserved to be rousing too, for as juniors
they had contributed much to the social, extra-cur-
ricular, and academic life of the University.

Class of 1959
When a man has been graduated from Lehigh, there
are a great number of things that he will always re-
member well about his undergraduate days. Many of
these memories will be associated with his senior year.
The men of the Class of 1959 will probably have little
trouble remembering their last days at school, for the
seniors worked hard, played hard, and above all lived
the four years in Bethlehem with such zest that they
set a goal for future classes.
As soon as school began in the Fall, plans were
made for the highlight of the season — Houseparty
Weekend. Abandoning the past ideas and starting a
new tradition, the class decided to have three bands
providing music in a full range of interest. With two
name bands on the same floor, "An Affair With Music"
set a precedent-shattering attendance record. On the
lower floor of the music-bedecked Grace Hall, Lehigh
couples whirled to the sounds of Dave Brubeck and
Elliot Lawrence. Matt Gillespie contributed musically
to the romantic atmosphere of the upper floor. For the
second year in succession, the weekend was rather rain-
soaked, but as usual, the heavy downpour failed to
dampen the spirit of the affair.
The Class of 1959 participated in the group insur-
ance plan in record-breaking numbers. The '59ers can
look ahead twenty years to the time when they will
be able to give the University a gift of well over
$100,000.
The clearest memories of the senior year doubtlessly
will include graduation and the many events associated
with it. As a final expression of the fun of college
life, Senior Weekend served admirably. It included all
the best parts of social events from the preceding years,
as well as something extra — the quality of change.
Indeed, this celebration was the last social meeting of
the class. Steamed clams, beautiful dates, and good
jazz highlighted the picnic held in balmy June weather.
After attending dinner parties at various places on
campus, the formally clad seniors and dates moved to
Hotel Bethlehem for a dance and midnight supper.
The solemnity of the baccalaureate service mingled
with the excitement of commencement itself. As Grace
Hall filled to capacity with faculty, parents, and
friends, the men of 1959 looked back upon a senior
year filled with worthwhile activity and good fun.

Omicron
Delta Kappa
This year, Omicron Delta Kappa, the senior leader-
ship honorary, completed its thirty-third year at Lehigh.
Since its inception, the honorary has striven to encour-
age smooth relations between students, and to promote
student-faculty understanding and cooperation. In addi-
tion to the select group of juniors and seniors, inter-
ested faculty members participated in the spirited
debates, which ranged from broad international topics
to issues more directly affecting every Lehigh man.
The campus topics were often received with great
enthusiasm, and many times new light was shed upon
pertinent Lehigh problems. The high standards of this
honorary require at least a 2.5 cumulative scholastic
average, supplemented by outstanding participation in
campus activities such as student government, music,
drama, and religion.

posed of twenty- men, selected each year on the basis
of cumulative average, extracurricular activities, and
a display of campus leadership. Their main purpose is
to indoctrinate the freshman class and to smoothly
incorporate them into the life at Lehigh.
Cvanide's job began Freshman Week when the mem-
bers of the Qass of "62 first appeared on campus. A
hearty handshake let them know that they were wel-
come, and a little brown "dink" reminded them that
they were greenhorns. Cyanide also organized the
Freshman Cabinet, sponsored the song and skit con-
tests, and ran the traditional tug-of-war with Lafay-
ette. The formation of a new Thuse Committee
proved to be a successful means of improving spirit
at football e^mes.

Who's Who
All over the United States 9,000 students share
what is considered one of the highest honors a person
can attain in an institution of higher education. These
distinguished few, coming from over 760 United States
campuses, are named as persons who contributed most
to their school communities in the publication, "Who's
Who Among Students in American Colleges and Uni-
versities". But there is more than just an honor con-
nected to this achievement; these students, already
likely to succeed thoroughly, have their chances in-
creased still more by this national recognition of their
achievements.
Here at Lehigh, thirty students are selected annually
by Cyanide, assisted by members of the faculty and
administration. These thirty must be either juniors,
seniors, or graduate students. No set rules are followed
in selecting this privileged group, but such qualifica-
tions as scholarship, leadership, significant participation
in campus activities, and general services to the Uni-
versity are qualities by which a "Who's Who"-to-be
is to be judged.

Alpha Phi Omega
Alpha Phi Omega, the national scouting service
fraternity, provides many services to the University.
Its most significant endeavor is the annual Ugly Man
Contest. This year marked the sixth of a series of such
contests begun in 1954. As usual, living groups spon-
sored candidates whom they billed as the ugliest on
campus, and the student body was given the oppor-
tunity to elect "it" by dropping donations into con-
tainers on the library steps.
One of the most spectacular demonstrations of the
contest was staged by Sigma Alpha Mu's candidate,
"Hup" Hollander, who held mass rallies complete
with Cedar Crest girls and police escort. Needless to
say, "Hup" was chosen victor by a wide majority, and
APO's big project contributed well over $1,000 to the
Campus Chest.

Town Council is the governing body of nearly one-
third of the Lehigh student population which lives in
the Bethlehem area. It strives not only to represent
these students in student government, but also to give
town men some of the advantages of college life
enjoyed by dormitory and fraternity dwellers. Main-
taining a representative on Arcadia, the council strives
to make the voice of the town student heard on campus.
Town Council also urges local men to participate
more fully in the University's extracurricular program.
An athletic committee encourages participation in
sports, and the group always comes up with top intra-
mural teams. The council also maps a social program.
The highlight of its social calendar was the annual
fall dance, held last November in the University Center.
The new University Center has also provided a special
Town Council meeting room, where officers and mem-
bers gather to plan and coordinate activities.
148
Alpha Lambda Omega
In the history of Lehigh, the men who commuted
from the AUentown area were always a united group.
It was not until 1942, however, that they molded their
bonds of friendship into a social fraternity. Originally
known as the AUentown-Lehigh Organization, the
group has now expanded its membership to include
any commuter to the University and has adopted the
Greek name of Alpha Lambda Omega.
\X^ith the main purpose of providing a social life for
town students comparable to that of other groups liv-
ing on campus, ALO centers its activities around purely
social events. Parties were held this year on an average
of twice a month, the most outstanding being during
the two Houseparties and Lafayette W^eekend. Prob-
ably the most eagerly awaited event of the social season
took place during the Christmas holidays, when mem-
bers joined alumni for the annual reunion party. This
affair is a yearly tribute to the active alumni organiza-
tion, a vital part of the group set-up.

Publications
. - . informing the student body
During their year and a half in new quarters, the
student publications have reaped many tangible and
intangible benefits from their modern facilities and
have passed them on to the student body through
better publications. Epitome. Brown and White, and
WLRN moved into the new Richard Harding Davis
Publications Wing in the fall of 1957. By last fall,
most of the confusion resulting from the move to the
new headquarters had been resolved into a new, effi-
cient method of working. As always. Professor McFad-
den and Mr. Hutchins were behind the scenes, offering
helpful suggestions, good-natured criticisms, and knife-
edged observations. Although too often taken for
granted, their ready help and understanding brightened
routine chores, and kept the three large publication
units operating smoothly.
The members of all of the staffs had a feeling of
pride in their new University Center working quarters,
and with good reason. Their w^ing cost a quarter of a
million dollars. Studios, offices, a darkroom, and a
large news room were all new, and they brought with

them an appropriate amount of increased enthusiasm.
The senior members of the staff were especially
pleased, as memories of hectic, overcrowded conditions
in the old Drown Hall basement still huddled in their
minds. Moreover, it was not only staffers who appre-
ciated the new setup. Many a weekend found other
students and faculty members sticking their heads into
doorways, and then proudly leading admiring dates,
parents, and guests on a guided tour of the area.
Good planning had provided "a place for every-
thing, and everything in its place", and consequently
rooms were generally uncluttered, even when dead-
lines and special events rolled around. The whole oper-
ation was as much fun as work, a situation for which
many organizations strive, but few achieve. The result-
ing esprit de corps turned out better papers, pictures,
yearbooks, and radio programs than in previous years,
as the hard-working editors, managers, and general
staff members took full advantage of one of the most
modern publications setups in the country.

Brown and White
Brown and White had a very full year, probably
the most significant in the semiweekly's seventy-one
years of keeping Lehigh informed and interested in
campus events. The move into new quarters last year
proved to be greatly rewarding, as it enabled the staff
to stop fighting equipment battles and to concentrate
on solving quality and content problems instead. As a
result, the enthusiastic staff turned out more high
quality pages than have ever been produced in recent
years. The elevated intellectual tone of the paper was
attested by the increased number of articles on politics,
religion, science, and education.
The new facilities of the University Center were
greatly appreciated and well-used. Typewriters were
ringing throughout the day and lights burned late every
night, not just on Sunday and Wednesday evenings
when issues of Tuesday and Friday, respectively, went
to press. For eighteen hours out of an average day
someone could be found hard at work in the news
room.
Brown and W^hite's 2,800 campus and 800 sub-
scription readers were not the only ones to realize
its high quality. The nationwide Associated Collegiate
Press classified the paper as Ail-American, the highest
possible rating. Only three other semiweekly college
newspapers in the country were similarly honored. As
a result, Editor-in-Chief Joseph Varilla represented
Lehigh at the national ACP convention in Chicago.
While he was there he exchanged ideas with other
collegiate editors and participated in a panel discussion
on the subject, "The Student Newspaper and the Col-
lege Community". This year marked the fourth time
in its history that Brown and White has received the
Associated Collegiate Press All-American award.
Praise was received from other directions, also, the
most significant coming from none other than the
United States State Department. It selected Brown and
White and several other newspapers as the most repre-
sentative of American college journalism, and conse-
quently, fifty copies of each issue were circulated in
Poland and behind the Iron Curtain. Another im-
portant honor was bestowed upon the paper when the
national journalism honorary, Pi Delta Epsilon,
awarded it first prize in its annual nationwide contest.
Achievements such as these made Brown and White
staff well-pleased with the year as a whole.

The Epitome
Production of Epitome can only be completed by the com-
bined efforts of many. Dick Bernard, Phil Mezey, and Dick
Granat produce one of the many paste-ups.
Creating a yearbook such as the 1959 Epitome is
a long, and frequently harrowing job. Work on this
edition actually began back in the Spring semester of
1958, when the Board of Publications appointed the
editor-in-chief and the business manager, and the mast-
head staff was selected. Later in the semester, the
editors prepared their prospectus, by designing a ten-
tative miniature layout of the many subjects and their
respective space allotments.
During the Summer of '58, the editors tackled the
tremendous job of expanding the smaller layout; each
article and photo was assigned a final position on its
page. Cover designs, styles of print, and ideas for
section dividers were continuously hashed over until
satisfactory schemes were devised.
With the layout completed, the next objectives were
scheduling the vast number of assignments and getting
the sales campaign under way. Every freshman knows
that the latter goal was in full swing during Fresh-
man Week; omnipresent salesmen wore down many a
tough prospect with an explosive verbal attack that
challenged the blasting out of the old Lookout. Local
businessmen were advised that it would be a good in-
vestment to associate themselves with Epitome. By the
end of the first month of the semester, the literary
and business staffs had received their aides, bringing
the total staff to about thirty.
Although the Epitome is far more than just a snap-
shot album, the vast number of pictures in each volume
present some of the most important problems. Inevit-
able absences, cancellations, and rainy days made much
rescheduling necessary to take the more than 2,000
photos that were eventually screened to 1,000.
An interesting sidelight on Epitome is its cost in
relation to its future value. The 1,600 books cost
$22,000 to publish, all of which was raised without
University aid, through the sale of space and issues,
advertisements, and pictures to groups. Moreover, it is
hoped that the potential value of this edition will rise
steadily as it becomes a cherished storehouse of mem-
ories of undergraduate days. Another Epitome is hot
off the press, from cover to cover a nationally merited
yearbook, produced through the conscientious efforts
of a staff that strove to make this edition a little more
complete, a little better organized, and a little more
original than previous volumes.
WLRN
If WLRN has many more such active years as this
one, the only thing left to develop will be live campus
television! Lehigh's radio voice took giant-sized steps
this year to broaden its cultural vistas, building on an
already extensive list of program offerings. As had
come to be expected, the station presented its usual pot-
pourri of programs to please every palate, including
popular, classical, jazz, and rock and roll music, sports
events and interviews, and the omnipresent news, time,
and weather. But in addition, a new dimension in
special coverage was achieved, and the results were
worthy of national note.
The most ambitious project was the special cover-
age of the fall elections, which, although transmitted
before by WLRN, reached epic proportions this year.
Arrangements were made so that the station had direct
telephone connections with the major election returns
centers all over the nation. Preparations for the big
night started weeks in advance, resulting finally in
contact with centers from Boston to Los Angeles. In
addition, returns were checked by means of direct lines
to Democratic and Republican headquarters in New
York. Through the facilities of the CBS Radio Net-
work and local affiliated stations, WLRN's combined
listening audience was estimated at 500,000. Sometime
after three o'clock in the morning, the bleary-eyed staff
trudged out, dog-tired, but confident of a job well done.
Another facet of the station's new emphasis on
special events was the inauguration of a new interview
series, "Face the Campus". The first presentation fea-
tured the Honorable Joseph S. Clark, the senior senator
from Pennsylvania. Senator Clark toured the campus
briefly, and then withstood the sharpened wits of
WLRN panelists in a spirited question-and-answer de-
bate. Other notables that appeared on the show in-
cluded Dean Liston Pope of Yale.
The WLRN staff took full advantage of their mod-
ern facilities in the University Center, rated to be the
best-equipped studios in the Lehigh Valley. They also
tried to expand their audience, working on various
systems that would bring their programs to all of the
fraternity houses. All in all, through their progressive
outlook and their enthusiastic willingness to work, this
year's staff made WLRN more than ever the true
■'Voice of Lehigh".

For Pi Delta Epsilon, the national journalism hon-
orary, this was a year of awards, both presented and
received. The Lehigh chapter bestowed an honorary
membership upon Donald P. Keith, the editorial page
editor of the Easiou Express, for the brilliance of his
editorials. On the national level, Broiv>i and White
and Epitome received first prize awards in Pi Delta
Epsilon's annual contest, and received certificates in
recognition of their performance. On the other side
of the ledger, the chapter itself was lauded when it
received national mention in Editor and Publisher
magazine, the second consecutive year for this honor.
The men of Pi Delt, all outstanding members of
publication staffs, selected a very worthwhile project
this year. Showing an interest in being of service to
the University community, they prepared a small desk
blotter which listed the most necessary and frequently
used telephone numbers. Useful projects like this help
the campus to be more conscious of the honorary's
service.

Religious Groups
. . . stimulatmg spiritual growth
The various religious organizations at Lehigh, an
important part of the campus life, serve the school
and the students in three ways. First, they offer the
students an opportunity to preserve their own religious
preference during their college years, and to strengthen
these ties and develop a more sound and mature faith.
Second, the religious groups try to broaden the stu-
dents' religious outlook and to erase any preconceived
religious prejudices by increasing their knowledge of
other faiths. The third service of Lehigh's spiritual
program is to present ample opportunity for partici-
pation in genial religious fellowship, an aspect of
religious life which is sometimes overlooked.
Heading the religious program at Lehigh is the
Committee on Religious Life, which consists of alumni,
faculty, and undergraduate members. With the cap-
able advice and assistance of the committee. Chaplain
Fuessle has organized a fine program of religious ac-
tivity. The "secret of success" of this program is the
Inter-faith Council, which coordinates the activities of
the three major faiths and leads the way to a more

unified religious life at the University. The Jewish,
Catholic, and Protestant faiths are represented in the
council by the HiUel Society, the Newman Club, and
the Christian Council, respectively.
Besides acting as the overall governing body of the
various religious groups, the Interfaith Council also
sponsors the annual Conferences on Religion. These
conferences are without a doubt the most important
and enlightening single religious activity at Lehigh.
Three gatherings each year bring prominent leaders
in the Jewish, Catholic, and Protestant faiths to the
University to lead discussions at assemblies, luncheons,
classroom meetings, and fraternities. The first con-
ference in November featured Rabbi Harry Halpern
who spoke on "The Value of Religion for Us" and
several other pertinent topics during his three-day stay
on campus. The second conference in February brought
the Very Reverend James J. McLarney, a distinguished
Dominican priest, to the campus. Speaking on the

hard through committees to strengthen the rehgious

to publicize guest speakers and to extend typical Lehigh
hospitality to them. They also compiled a library of

enhance the "big band" sound.
An enlarged Brass Choir performed a collection of

Chorales from atop the Chapel tower.
The robust-sounding Lehigh Glee Club took to the
road this year. After many performances in the Valley
and on campus, the group packed their bags and

Mustard and Cheese
. talented group of tkespmi
For versatility, range of plays and excellence of per-
formance, Lehigh"s Mustard and Cheese Players are
unsurpassed among Eastern college groups. The start
of the school year found the group, directed bv Pro-
fessor H. Barrett Davis, recruiting new members and
starting work immediately on the first production. This
year the players ran the gamut from Korean prison
camps to the world of Thomas aBecket and his
cathedral.
The stark realities of a Korean prison camp served
as background material for the fall presentation, "Time
Limit", by Henry Denker and Ralph Berkey. The pur-
suit of the single shred of evidence necessary' to free
a man from unjust condemnation held audience and
critics spell-bound. Students and faculty agreed that it
was one of the highlights of Snowball Weekend and
the v.'inter cultural season in the Lehigh Valley.
Contributing in part to the success of the Mustard
and Cheese productions this year was the new work-
shop headquarters. For the first time in thirty years
the Lehigh thespians were a unified activity with a
dramatic home. The basement of Lamberton Hall,
remodeled during the summer, was initiated at a party
after "Time Limit".
The workshop, as well equipped as manv pro-
fessional counterparts, consists of four main areas.

Work on the sets of the next Mustard and Cheese produc-
tion is well under way in the new workshop installed this
year in the basement of Lamberton Hall.
Occupying the largest area is the rehearsal and social
room, lined with the Mustard and Cheese library and
the memory gallery of past productions. A second area
used by the business and costume staffs has modern
equipment including an electric sewing machine for
use by the faculty ladies in costume preparation.
The carpentry and paint shop contributed much to
the near-professional sets in this year's productions.
The fourth area is a property room, storing all the
myriads of items necessary for a single play.
The drama season moved swiftly along with pre-
parations for the spring production. This year, as in
the past several years, the second play of the season
was in a lighter vein. The aspects of humor were again
presented to theater-goers with resounding success.
As part of the final all-campus Conference on Re-
ligion, the Mustard and Cheese Players presented T. S.
Eliot's outstanding verse-drama, "Murder in the
Cathedral". The Gothic splendor of Packer Chapel
provided the perfect setting for the first campus pres-
entation of the troubles at Canterbury in seven years.
The film division of the Mustard and Cheese pro-
gram again exposed the Lehigh student to the best
cinema on a bi-weekly basis. The thirteenth series
ranged from the award-winning "Red Shoes" to the
Moscow Art Theatre "Inspector General".

. . . streMgtkcmug friendships
With chapters of thirty national organizations and
over one third of the undergraduate body in its mem-
bership, the Lehigh fraternity family is an extremely
important part of the University life. Since its early
beginnings, not long after the founding of the Uni-
versity itself, the fraternity system has grown into a
strong body of well-organized men — men who have
pledged their active support to the betterment of Le-
high, the fraternity system, and themselves.
The Interfraternity Council must be complimented
on the fine work that they did this year in an effort to
solve the omnipresent problems of fraternity contact-
ing, rushing, and pledging. This year's Fall contacting
and Spring rushing program was an improvement over
past systems, but far from the ideal plan in the eyes
of many. The so-called "Mickey Mouse" activities of
pledging were also criticized by administration and
faculty. IFC ambitiously accepted the challenge and
came up with a new rushing program for next year
and also an amendment to its constitution which sets
forth an impressive pledges' "Bill of Rights".

task of coordinating Lehigh's fraternity system. As the
primary governing body of the thirty fraternities, the
council represents over 900 Lehigh men.
Rushing is one of the most important activities of
a fraternity, and one of the biggest annual headaches
of the Interfraternity Council. In the recent past the
group has initiated several trial systems, all aimed at
providing an adequate rushing procedure without un-
due sacrifice of study time. A completely new scheme
was tested this year, with contacting and rushing split
between the first and second semesters, respectively.
A more relaxed dormitory "invasion" period ended
in December, and fraternity house doors were not
thrown open to the freshmen until the week before
Spring vacation. Student Life Committee and the
Dean's Office were not completely satisfied with the
program, however, and future IPC's will still face this
harrowing problem.
The Interfraternity Council annually sponsors the
Lafayette Weekend display contest. A cup is presented
to the house having the most original and attractive
display, as determined by a group of judges. As usual,
this year's contest proved to be an amusing and well-
enjoyed feature of the traditional festivities, and pro-
vided some friendly rivalry among the fraternities.
IPC Weekend is always one of the highlights of
Lehigh's social season. As a kickoff for the rushing
period, this year's weekend featured a Mustard and
Cheese play, and the traditional dance.

The Phi Mu chapter of Alpha Chi Rho gave its full
support to campus activities this year with represen-
tation in most of Lehigh's clubs, societies, and teams.
With emphasis on the quality of leadership, the
"Crows" whole-heartedly plunged into the extra-cur-
ricular program with brothers on many teams, and in
Cyanide, Arcadia, Tau Beta Pi, and other groups.
Socially no one had a more active and interesting
party life than did Alpha Chi Rho. Lafayette Week-
end turned out to be a great success, and of course the
great parties in the Fall and Spring were also well en-
joyed by brothers and guests alike.
Being in its entirety a close, well-knit organization,
Alpha Chi Rho realizes the importance of true frater-
nalism and strives to be a house full of close and last-
ing friendships. Completing their forty-first year of
membership in the Lehigh family, the "Crows" dis-
played, as always, a well-balanced combination of
strong campus interests, full social lives, and true
fraternity spirit.

Mpfta Sigma Phi
This year Alpha Sigma Phi played host to its na-
tional fraternity convention. The assembly was held at
a Pocono resort, and chapters from all over the country
were represented.
The Alpha Sigs did well in sports this year, and
also maintained their customary high scholastic aver-
age. For the past two years the Lehigh chapter has
been awarded the national Alpha Sigma Phi scholar-
ship. In campus activities they were also well repre-
sented; Alpha Sigs held the presidencies of Cut and
Thrust and the Lutheran Students Association, and a
member was on the discipline committee.
Alpha Sigma Phi "took to the hills" as its extremely
successful Fall Houseparty social took the form of
a hillbilly party. Practically before they could get the
straw out of their hair, they plunged into another
festive affair, an old-fashioned hayride.
Within the next year work will begin on a new
campus house for the Alpha Sigs in Sayre Park. In
only three year's time a hard-working group collected
the funds necessary for this ambitious project.
Pennsylvania Alpha Rho Chapter
As one o£ the oldest fraternities on campus, found-
ed at Lehigh in 1882, Alpha Tau Omega has contrib-
uted much to the University throughout the years. ATO
strives to be an "activity" house and still maintain
high scholarship and genial brotherhood. This goal
they have successfully accomplished again this year.
ATO can be proud of the significant contributions of
its brothers in diversified extracurricular fields ranging
from sports to politics. The house could boast of having
a considerable share of the leadership responsibilities
throughout the campus with class cabinet officers,
Arcadia president, band members, and WLRN direc-
tors among the brothers.
Tau, ATO's loyal pet and mascot for many years,
was a well-known campus figure. The huge Great
Dane, the largest mascot on campus, was known by
name to all Lehigh students. It was evident this year,
however, that the big dog was getting too old to keep
up with the brothers, and the alumni graciously donated
a fine puppy to the house. It is hoped that his reign
will be as successful as that of his predecessor.

^Qia C\\\ Chapter
Once more this year Lehigh looked to Beta Theta
Pi for many of its campus leaders. As always their
wide range of achievements reflected the high quality
performance that is the basis of their attitude toward
Lehigh and toward fraternity life itself. This year,
as in the past, Betas were active in the University
athletic program, with many varsity participants in
the house, including the captain of the wrestling team.
The Lehigh student governing bodies were also well
stocked with Betas; the president of Cyanide, the
treasurer of the senior class and the vice-president of
the junior class were among the brothers. Participa-
tion of Betas in many extracurricular activities was the
policy, as they were also active in ODK, the Epitome,
Tau Beta Pi, Brown Key, and the Glee Club.
For Fall Houseparty, the house used quite success-
fully the "Nebish" theme, with the brothers and their
dates garbed in shapeless costumes for the gala party.
Another important event on the Beta calendar was the
annual Christmas part}' in which the brothers played
Santa Claus for an appreciative group of local children.
Psi Chapter
Chi Phi holds the unique distinction of being the
oldest member o£ the Lehigh fraternity family. During
its eighty-seven years at the University, Chi Phi has
established, through the conscientious efforts of its
members, a high reputation for fulfilling the aims of
fraternity living and for enthusiastically participating
in campus activities. The house takes particular pride
in the spirit of friendship and brotherhood that under-
lies all the actions of its brothers.
This year Chi Phi showed its interest in extra-cur-
riculars with members on the football, wrestling, and
soccer teams, and participants in many other campus
functions. Fall Houseparty found brothers and dates
garbed in the typical floppy-eared costumes of a "Play-
boy" party. Barbara Kehde, a Chi Phi date, was
crowned Fall Houseparty Queen.
Chi Phi is supported by a strong alumni organiza-
tion which is always interested in improving the house.
This year they helped defray the expenses of building
a parking area and remodeling the second floor.

Chi Psis completed another outstanding year in the
intramural sports program competition in their defense
of the Universit)' athletic championship which they won
last year. Their accomplishments in intramurals repre-
sented a strong group effort with 100 per cent partici-
pation by all of the brothers.
The men of Chi Psi were also active in other campus
activities, including varsity athletics, student govern-
ment organizations, the honorar}- societies, and student
publications.
On a national brotherhood level, Chi Psi had very
close contacts with several other of their chapters in
the East, especially Rutgers and Cornell. One of the
most successful inter-campus social events observed at
Lehigh was the annual beer-softball game with the
Rutgers chapter.
Lafayette weekend brought out a unique creation
for the Lafayette display contest. The skill and imagin-
ation of the pledge class gave rise to a mechanized
Lehigh man who shot a leopard from atop a huge
cuckoo clock as "The Clock Struck" game time.

Lefi/gf] C\\cii](iiQx
In early December, Delta Chi reversed the trend of
the many Lehigh fraternities which have either recently
moved on campus or plan to do so in the near future
by moving off the University grounds into their new
house at Brodhead Avenue and Warren Square. The
structure had formerly been used by Lehigh to house
the members of the Instep Program. The move into
the recently redecorated house has more than doubled
Delta Chi's housing capacity and has given them much
greater flexibility in planning their social events and
other recreational activities. This was well-evidenced
in the gala housewarming celebration during Snowball
"Weekend, when hundreds of Lehigh men and dates
helped initiate the new domicile.
Delta Chi is the youngest fraternity at Lehigh, hav-
ing been founded in 1952. In these few years, how-
ever, the group has already firmly established a few
traditions, one of which is the annual keg-rolling con-
test in which five pledges challenge five Delta Tau
Delta neophytes to a race through Sayre Park.

Nu Chapter
The Delta Phis, known fraternally as the Saint
Elmos, had a double social event this year. The cele-
bration of the seventy-fifth anniversary of the Nu
chapter's founding at Lehigh was combined with the
128th annual convention of the national society. Rep-
resentatives from Delta Phi chapters throughout the
country poured into the Bethlehem area and helped
the Lehigh brothers make a "real blast" of their anni-
versary celebration.
The Delts are proud of their past which dates to
the founding of the fraternity at Union College in
1827. As a member of the famous Union Triad, Delta
Phi is one of the oldest social fraternities in America.
Locally the Delts still share fellowship with the other
members of the Triad, Kappa Alpha and Sigma Phi,
with at least one combined party each year.
The Delta Phis believe in keeping active on campus
and have shown this spirit in their affiliations with the
musical societies, the lacrosse team, government bodies,
and many other campus groups.
Delta Sigma Phi
Beta Jheta Chapter
Delta Sigma Phis literally had a "real ball" this
year as they undertook the traditional Sailor's Ball and
Carnation Ball. Both affairs are celebrated by Delta
Sig chapters all over the country, and the Lehigh group
observes them during the houseparty weekends. The
dances were particularly successful this year, with
representatives from many local Delta Sig chapters
in attendance.
Delta Sigma Phi was active in all types of campus
activities, from sports to course societies and honoraries.
Included in this list of organizations were the cross
country and rifle teams, the Brown and White, and the
Accounting Society. The secretary of IFC was a Delta
Sig, as was the president of Scabbard and Blade.
Delta Sigma Phi's Parents Club is very interested,
as should be expected, in the house's academic record.
Each semester they offer two scholarship awards for
the highest average and the greatest improvement.
These awards serve their purpose, as was evidenced
by Delta Sig's very high house average this year.

Beta lambda Chapter
A gala housewarming party on February 21 made
official Delta Tau Delta's long-awaited move into a
spacious new Sayre Park residence. Guests gazed with
admiring eyes at the attractive American-Colonial-styled
structure, and praised the interior for its spaciousness,
beauty, and functionalism. The house easily accom-
modates thirty-four men. Included in the basic layout
are a spacious dining room with adjacent game room,
twelve study rooms with built-in wardrobes, two large
sleeping dorms, a handsome alumni suite, a library,
and a gracious living room. It contains several special
luxury features, moreover, such as provisions for a
complete hi-fi public address system, dimmer-controlled
lights, and a bar that opens into the game room.
The move into the new house did not lessen Delta
Tau Delta's traditionally keen interest in extracurricular
activities. The Delts were especially prominent in var-
sity athletics, student government, and the musical
organizations.
Delta UpsiloH
The men of Delta Upsilon "made the scene" socially
this year with enthusiastic participation in Lehigh's
social calendar. The first big weekend was the well-
attended Parents' Weekend, which gave the brothers
and their parents the rare opportunity to socialize
together at the house. Then followed a gala Fall House-
party Weekend, with the house veiled in the atmos-
phere of a street cafe. Lafayette Weekend soon came
along with a fine "Cat on a Hot Tin Roof" display
as the theme for the occasion. The yule season brought
out the Christmas tree, Santa Claus, and the annual
party for underprivileged children. In the Spring, fol-
lowing the very successful IFC and Spring Houseparty
weekends, the house held the traditional Mother's Day
tea, which culminated a very active social program for
the year.
Delta Upsilon was also highly active in many other
phases of Lehigh life. The house was well represented
in the Glee Club, Ski Club, Alpha Phi Omega, class
cabinets, Epitome, and many of the athletic teams.

Kappa Alp^^
?enm\^\\)ama Alpha Chapter
As the oldest continuous social fraternity in exist-
ence, Kappa Alpha kept its name high in the Lehigh
family. The Kaps were strongly represented in nu-
merous activities and played on the varsity lacrosse,
football, baseball, tennis, and hockey teams. The class
cabinets all had Kappa Alpha men represented, and
the scholarship chairman of IFC was a KA. Probably
the activity which produced the most interest among
the brothers was the Glee Club. There was plenty of
music around the house with the entire officer staff
of the Glee Club composed of KA men.
Although Kappa Alpha is the oldest fraternity, it
is certainly not the largest, with only nine chapters
in existence. This policy of a small, closely knit na-
tional organization gave the Lehigh brothers an oppor-
tunity to keep in close contact with other KA houses
in this country and in Canada.
The spirit of unity was always in evidence at Satur-
day night parties, when the brothers and their dates
could be found singing around the piano.
Kappa Sigma
Beta \ota Chapter
In the large brick house on Church Street reside
the men of Kappa Sigma. Beginning their fifty-ninth
year at Lehigh, the brothers still strive to maintain the
objectives of the founders in making Kappa Sig one
of the University's friendliest fraternities. The broth-
ers share not only the warm bonds of fraternalism, but
also common interests and activities.
The Kappa Sigs verified their ardent interest in
sports this year with spirited participation in both
intramural and varsity contests; members were active
in football, swimming, wrestling, golf, tennis, and
sailing. Kappa Sigma also kept well abreast of the
extracurricular life with representatives in all the major
areas of campus activities.
The social life at Kappa Sig this year was a full
and varied one, with the biggest "blasts" during the
two Houseparties, and during Lafayette and Snow-
ball Weekends. The social highlight was the annual
Kappa Sigma Christmas banquet.

Gamma-?s\ Zeta Chapter
Fall Houseparty at Lambda Chi Alpha was a bit
louder than usual this year, for the always present
merriment was accompanied by vigorous gunplay
among the brothers. The weapons, of course, were
only cap pistols, but the effect gave a touch of realism
to the Lambda Chi Corral, the Houseparty theme. In
addition to the usual western decorations, a set of
swinging doors and several bales of hay converted
Lambda Chi's bar into an old-time cowboy saloon.
The swinging doors were such a hit at the party that
they became a mainstay in the bar for this social season.
On the more serious side, Lambda Chi continued
its tradition of community interest and service. The
annual Christmas party for orphans was again very
successful, as the children from the nearby area de-
lighted at the warm-hearted entertainment by the
brothers. An additional service project was also under-
taken by Lambda Chi Alpha this year, in the form of
a door-to-door drive to solicit funds for the local
campaign for aid to the mentally retarded.
Phi Delta Zheta
&MrrT:-Ay&=,cs^^
The Phi Delts are well known for their wide and
enthusiastic participation in all phases of campus ac-
tivities, and especially for their leadership in the many
student governing bodies at Lehigh. This year the house
had brothers on all of the class cabinets, with a total
of eight representatives, and on Arcadia and Arcadia
Associates. Sportswise, Phi Delts participated in varsity
football, wrestling, swimming, fencing, and track. The
house was also active in intramurals, last year winning
trophies in football, swimming, and softball.
A highlight of this year's social program at Phi
Delta Theta was the house's annual Christmas party
for orphans. The party was especially successful due
to the attendance of the lovely Miss Pennsylvania, who
made a very charming Santa's helper by presenting gifts
to the children.
At the end of this year, a building and renovating
program was begun at the Phi Delt house, with plans
including a redecorated interior and a new wing.

Phi(Jamma 'Delta
The Phi Gam house has always been one of effective
leadership in student activities, student government,
and varsity sports. Never was this fact more in evi-
dence than this year, when the house numbered among
its brothers the president of the Class of 1959, the
captain of the football team, and the president of the
Interfraternity Council. Fijis were active in many var-
sity sports and participated in Cyanide, Arcadia, and
practically all of the Lehigh honoraries.
A social event of special note at Phi Gam was the
chapter's annual birthday party, which is rapidly be-
coming a Lehigh tradition. This year's celebration at-
tracted more than seventy-five representatives of other
fraternities, the faculty and staff, and the adminis-
tration.
Spring Houseparty once again brought out Phi
Gam's traditional Fiji Island theme. Sand, simulated
by sawdust, on the ground and amazingly realistic palm
trees overhead carried the partygoers away from the
realities of the Lehigh campus to the romantic atmos-
phere of a tropical island paradise.
Phi Sigma Kappa
Nu Chapter
The Phi Sigs began their fifty-eighth season at
Lehigh this year, and only their second year in their
luxurious Sayre Park home. One of the outstanding
events of the Fall semester for Phi Sigma Kappa was
a Christmas party for some children from the Allen-
town State Hospital. With a Christmas tree, loads of
presents, and even Santa Claus to lead the festivities,
it was difficult to decide who had a better time, the
children or the brothers.
Phi Sigma Kappa strives to maintain close ties
between its national organization and its individual
chapters. One of the annual events nationally is the
Phi Sig basketball tournament, in which Lehigh Nu
chapter has done consistently well against its brother
chapters throughout the country.
The Phi Sig house realizes the importance of aca-
demics, and encourages high fraternity averages by
annually presenting a scholarship award at the Flag-
pole Day ceremonies to the fraternity with the highest
scholastic average.

The traditional Dream Girl Dance was the high-
light of the social season at Pi Kappa Alpha, when
the name of the Dream Girl, selected from among the
girls pinned to brothers, was inscribed upon a huge
trophy provided for that purpose. Newly pinned broth-
ers are also "honored" with the traditional baptism
in the backyard fish pool.
The "Pikes" were active on campus this year with
representatives in Mustard in Cheese, the class cab-
inets, and various honorary societies. In athletics, a
great interest was taken in intramural activities, with
practically all of the brothers participating enthusias-
tically in the many sports in the program.
The Lehigh chapter tries to keep in close contact
with other local Pi Kappa Alpha chapters, especially
the Pennsylvania chapter, which they challenge to a
Softball game each year. This year they also kept up
their traditional close relationships with Moravian's
Alpha Epsilon Pi sorority with an impressive dinner
party in the Fall and the annual "modified" softball-
picnic aftair in the Spring.

The Pi Lams were rocking and rolling as the irre-
pressible King's Men really raised the roof with the
American Bandstand theme at Fall Houseparty. Having
to match the highly successful Satellites of last year's
Spring Houseparty, the band inserted a spirit into
brothers and visitors that made the weekend one of
the finest in Pi Lam's history.
The members of Pi Lam made their greatest con-
tributions to Lehigh life in campus government groups
and student publications. This year. Pi Lam men were

Psl UpsiloH
The familiar high-pitched clang of the bell warned
South Mountaineers of the approach of the Psi Upsilon
fire engine. The large red monster of 1935 vintage
was a familiar sight this year, carrying its spirited
owners over the campus roads during festive weekends.
The tradition was begun when Psi Upsilon first pur-
chased the old 1925 pump truck, which became un-
runable in 1953. The new mechanical mascot has
faithfully been serving the house for the past two years.
Psi Upsilon has always striven to create a favorable
relationship between the fraternities and the faculty.
A special faculty cocktail party this year was aimed at
this goal, and was thoroughly enjoyed by faculty and
brothers alike.
Psi Upsilon is one of the five oldest social fraternities
in the country, being founded at Union College in
1833. Proud of this long history of continuous exist-
ence, the Lehigh chapter has tried to keep in close
contact with all of its brother chapters. One such con-
tact is the traditional Softball game with the Penn-
sylvania chapter.
Sigma ^Alpk(i M^
The "Sammy" house, always interested in doing their
part in the activities in and around Lehigh, outdid all
of their past efforts this year in their winning of the
Ugly Man Contest in the Campus Chest drive. A well-
planned and well-executed campaign, complete with
Cedar Crest girls, police escort, and motor caravan,
carried them to unquestionable victory. They not only
proved themselves to be a group of energetic workers
for the benefit of the entire University, but also had
a wonderful time themselves in the project.
Sigma Alpha Mu men took a great and varied in-
terest in the many organizations on campus. They were
represented on the class cabinets, varsity sports teams,
and honorary and course societies. Managers of WLRN
and the Epitome were "Sammies" and interest in one
activity or another was held by everyone in the house.
Sigma Alpha Mu looks forward to two major events
in the near future, the celebration of the founding of
the fraternity next Fall, and the building of a campus
house within the next few years.

Sigma Cki
The Sigma Chi cliapter is very lucky to have an
alumni organization which is interested in the house
and willing to help it out. This is evidenced in the
striking modern house that the men now occupy in
Sayre Park, which was financed entirely by this alumni
group. Lafayette Weekend is always a social standout
at Sigma Chi, and no small credit for this is due to the
overflow crowd of loyal alumni which attends every
year.
The picking of the Sigma Chi Sweetheart is annually
an enjoyable social event for the brothers. The Sweet-
heart, selected from the girls who are pinned to a
Sigma Chi at Lehigh, was crowned in early December
and was presented with a special trophy commemorat-
ing the occasion. Another social treat was provided by
the annual dinner and dance held by the house in honor
of Its founding.
Sigma Chi has always tried to place University ob-
ligations and scholastic achievement first and foremost,
and can be proud of the great improvement in house
average in recent years.
Sigma J^u
?\ Chapter
In past years, Sigma Nu has always occupied a
prominent position in the Lehigh athletic limelight.
This year was no exception, with a considerable por-
tion of the football team, including next year's co-
captain, as brothers in the house. The captain of the
basketball team was also a Sigma Nu, and the fra-
ternity was represented on nearly all of the other
University teams. Athletic achievement, although an
important part of the house's life, was not its only
attribute. Sigma Nus participated in many other phases
of campus life, and also strove to maintain a good
scholastic average.
Sigma Nu arrived on the Lehigh scene in 1884, mak-
ing this year the seventy-fifth at the University. An
anniversary such as this is an excellent excuse for cele-
bration, and the Sigma Nus took full advantage of
the opportunity with a big anniversary party for the
alumni. A large number of graduates attended and
the affair proved to be a gala success. The Sigma Nu
all-sports banquet also drew a fine showing of alumni,
who helped make it a memorable evening for all.

Sigma Phi
?er\ns[^\\)ama Mpha Chapter
„ — ="1
As a member of the famous Union Triad, Sigma'
Phi is one of the oldest national social fraternities in
America. The Lehigh chapter was founded in 1887,
and now resides in a beautiful, ultra-modern house in
Sayre Park. Making constant improvements on their
dwelling, such as a patio several years ago and a hi-ii
set last year, the Sigma Phis are now looking into the
possibilities of an addition to the house in the near
future.
Unity and friendship are the goals of Sigma Phi's
fraternity philosophy. Visitors always feel welcome
at the house, and never fail to note the united fraternity
spirit and the congenial atmosphere that surrounds all
of the brothers' actions.
Sigma Phi was well represented in campus activities
this year, with members in the Band, Glee Club, all
of the class cabinets, the Brown Key, WLRN, and
many of the military and religious organizations. Sports-
wise the Sigs participated in varsity football, track,
lacrosse, and cheerleading.
Sigma PkiSpsilon
Sigma Phi Epsilon anxiously looks forward to the
erection of a magnificent new home in Sayre Park in
the very near future. The University has approved the
plans for the house; the building fund is near its goal;
and all that now remains is the ground-breaking cere-
mony.
Sigma Phi Epsilon probably celebrates Lafayette
Weekend more enthusiastically than any other Lehigh
fraternity. The Sig Eps made a big blast of this year's
party, packing hundreds of alumni into the jumping
house. The weekend was a tremendous success socially
and financially, as the alumni helped push the building
fund toward completion.
The annual Sweetheart dance was another highlight
of the social season. The traditional dance was held
on Valentines Day, and as usual a beautiful queen
was chosen to add to the long list of lovely Sig Ep
Sweethearts.
A great emphasis was placed on scholastics in recent
years at Sigma Phi Epsilon, and a greatly improved
house average is proof of a job well done.

Zau Delta Phi
Tau Chapter
No one can doubt the scholastic abilities of the Tau
Delts, as they consistently come through with top
honors in fraternity academics. During the last four
years, they earned the scholastic rating of number one
among the fraternities, and certainly did their reputa-
tion justice this year by holding down the top fraternity
position and claiming the second highest rank among
all of the University living groups.
Music was literally everywhere in the house as the
hi-fi set was well used to emit melodious strains from
newly installed speakers throughout the house. A re-
decorating spree found the Tau Delts hard at work
completing a bar and remodeling the livingroom.
A completely well-rounded fraternity is the goal
of Tau Delta Phi. A very successful social season was
highlighted by an ingenious Dracula Drag Party during
Fall Houseparty. In extracurriculars, the house partici-
pated in most of the honoraries, the publications, and
student government organizations.
Zketa Chi
The red and white cap has practically become the
trademark of Theta Chi, as the striking headpieces were
faithfully worn by brothers at all football games and
many other activities. The cap was certainly not Theta
Chi's only claim to fame, however, for as usual the
fraternity was noted for its outstanding scholarship,
its roaring parties, and its long list of campus activities.
Theta Chi's outstanding participation in extracurricu-
lar activities was especially noteworthy. The house
boasted of membership in over fifty separate activities,
including Arcadia, Cyanide, Omicron Delta Kappa, Tau
Beta Pi, Epitome, Brown and White, Glee Club, and
Band. Theta Chis occupied the president's chair in such
organizations as the junior class. Delta Omicron Theta,
Phi Eta Sigma, and Alpha Pi Mu.
Theta Chi's scholastic achievements were as out-
standing as its activities. Always near the top of the
fraternity academic list, the house was proud of its
ability to maintain excellent study conditions.

Zheta Delta Chi
Nu Deuteron Chapter
Theta Delta Chi is literally at the top o£ Lehigh
University. Its prominent position atop Old South
Mountain has made it a Bethlehem landmark, its
white-pillared front entrance visible from all sections
of town. Just as well known as the structure itself are
the accomplishments of one of Theta Delt's most
honored alumni, Eugene Gifford Grace, former presi-
dent of Bethlehem Steel.
Always interested in good sport, Theta Delts organ-
ized a small-scale interfraternity bobsled competition
this year, with participants scooting around the upper
regions of the mountain. The traditional alumni week-
end was especially successful with a rousing clambake
as one of the featured events.
The varsity athletic teams were well supplied with
Theta Delts, with brothers on the football, basketball,
and wrestling squads. The house was also active in
activities, claiming the presidents of the sophomore
class and ODK, and many members of Brown Key
Society.
Zketa Kappa Phi
Alpha Chapter
Theta Kappa Phi has the distinction o£ being the
only national social fraternity founded at Lehigh Uni-
versity. Begun in 1919, the organization has now
spread to twenty-three other campuses throughout the
nation.
This year's Theta Kaps could rightly be proud of
their recently redecorated home. Improvements on the
stately twenty-room stone and stucco chapter building
included repainting the whole house and redecorating
the spacious social room. The party cellar was also
renovated, and now boasts the longest bar at Lehigh.
The future holds an even finer home for Theta Kappa
Phi in Sayre Park, as the generous alumni have nearly
filled the coffers of the building fund.
Theta Kaps strive to serve not only their fraternity
but also their school. Significant participation in ath-
letics and extracurricular activities has always been
house policy. This year the Theta Kaps engaged in
such activities as the class cabinets, the Band, the
Epitome, the Brown and White, the Arnold Air So-
ciety, and the many honorary campus groups.

Eta Chapter
Expansion was the keynote of Theta Xi polic)' this
year. The purchase of the other half of their duplex
house and plans for renovating the entire structure will
greatly improve and enlarge their sleeping and living
quarters. Begun this year, the building project should
be completed by Spring of next year, when the Theta
Xis will be able to occupy the entirety of their "new"
house.
Theta Xi is very active in many campus activities
and honor societies, including class cabinets. Band,
Glee Club, Tau Beta Pi, Pi Tau Sigma, and various
military organizations. The house was especially well
represented in Mustard and Cheese and the Brown and
White.
Athletically, the brothers participated in varsit}' foot-
ball, wrestling, yw,'imming, track, cross countr)', and
lacrosse. The house has always been strong in intra-
mural sports, with a large majorit}' of the members
participating in the program. Theta Xi claimed the
league trophy in intramural football four times in the
last six vears.
Residence Halls
. . . providing congenial 'homes*
The entire residence halls system at Lehigh has
undergone great improvement during the past five
years. With the construction of McClintic-Marshall
House and the renovation of the University Center,
the life of the dormitory student has become a great
deal more pleasant than that of his counterpart of
several years past. The party room in M-M has greatly
expanded the social life of underclass residence halls
students, and the new dining rooms and Contract Din-
ing Plan offer a great improvement over the old Lam-
berton Hall "pay-as-you-eat" system. Continuous physi-
cal improvement such as annual paint jobs, renovations
of recreational facilities, and installation of new furni-
ture are always evident.
The most significant change in the dorm system in
recent years has been the segregation of the freshmen
in Richards, Drinker, and Dravo Houses and the upper-
classmen in Taylor, Price, and McClintic-Marshall.
This change is particularly beneficial to the freshmen,

who, in living together, can work out their common
problems and develop a strong class unity. The "segre-
gation" system has been accompanied by the rise o£
the Gryphon Society, one or two of whose members
reside in each freshman living section. The Gryphons
have done a fine job as "big brothers" and advisers to
the freshmen, who must spend their entire first year at
Lehigh in the residence halls.
Not only did the residence halls experience physical
improvement this year, but they also achieved a new
high in dormitory spirit. Frequent parties were ex-
tremely successful and well-attended. Residence halls
men assigned the profits of the concessions to the pur-
chase of television sets, and lounges in each dorm were
set aside as special television rooms. M-M residents
swung into the Lafayette display contest with a rocket
display which won third place honors.
Improvement is definitely the word for the resi-

dence halls, and with these improvements, the growing
importance of the Residence Halls Council is plainly
evident. The specific aim of RHC is to provide a
forum in which representatives from different dormi-
tories can present their opinions of problems that are
common to all houses. In this way it provides a better
all-around life for students living in the residence
halls. RHC acts as the supreme dormitory student gov-
erning body and is the unified voice of all students
not residing in fraternities or in town, some 1,150 in all.
Residence Halls Council is composed of seventeen
men: the six house presidents; the president, vice-presi-
dent, secretary, and treasurer of RHC; an Arcadia
representative; the chairmen of the Housing Facilities,
Social, and Disciplinar\- Committees; and one Gn'phon
representative from each of the freshman houses.
The chief social function of RHC is that of a co-
ordinating and advising group for the preparation,
planning, and carrying out of parties and dances.
RHC enables the houses to carry on a full social pro-
gram by providing advice and aid in the securing of
bands and food, and extra items such as sound equip-
ment and supplies. The council is also planning to
hold a gala RHC weekend next year, which will in-
clude a formal dance followed by living group parties.
The Residence Halls Council is also responsible for
the distribution of the profits of the concessions for
dormitory improvements. In this way the students are
actually providing for their own improvements when
they make use of the residence hall concessions. Future
plans include the expansion of a loan fund, which
now totals S2,500, to enable more students to receive
aid. With the continued improvement of the residence
halls system, it is quite apparent that RHC will remain
an integral part of the Lehigh picture and will con-
tinue to grow in importance.

Dravo House
Dravo House is situated on top of the highest moun-
tain in the Lehigh \''alley, or so it seemed to the 280
freshmen who resided there this year. These hardy
frosh developed their wind and legs climbing up and
down the four steep flights of stairs leading to their
massive dormitory. This year's Dravo crew took full
advantage of their height as they achieved fame for
their uncanny accuraq' with flying missiles. Many an
unsuspecting student suddenly found himself dosed
with water bombs from an "unknowm" source.
The time: 8:05. The problem: how to finish
dressing, and make it to class by 8:10.
One of the skills a freshman learns is nosh-

intricacies of the art.

Drinker House
Dr. Henry Sturgis Drinker, one of Lehigh's most
illustrious sons and presidents, worked untiringly to
build up Lehigh spirit by uniting the student body on
the campus. It is quite appropriate that one of the
University's dormitories now bears his name.
This year Drinker, the smallest of the freshman
halls, made up in spirit what it lacked in size. Fre-
quent nighttime conversations were initiated by the
Drinker boys with Dravo residents. Many a dull night
was sharpened by these inter-dorm "intellectual" ses-
sions.
During contacting, the freshman residence
halls are dive with fraternity men arranging
dates for rushing.

Price Hall
Price Hall has been many things since its creation,
including a brewer)', a fraternit)- house, and now an
upperclass dormitor}-. Housing only about fort)' men
each year. Price tends to have an atmosphere more
like that of a fraternity" than that of a dorm. Because
of Price's relative smallness. there tends to be greater
fellowship and closeness among its residents than in
any of the other residence halls.
Although the outside of Price Hall is not particu-
larly impressive, the recently renovated interior and
new furniture in each room more than make up for
the exterior. The house also enjoys the use of a new
part\- room and bar in the basement, thanks to the
cooperative efForts of its residents. This new social
lounge added greatly to the house spirit this year, and
provided for a much expanded social program.
In recent years Price has enjoyed excellent success
on the athletic field, and this year was no exception.

Richards House
Richards House, the oldest of the three freshman
residence halls, was named after Dr. Charles Russ
Richards, Lehigh's fourth president. During his admin-
istration. Dr. Richards proposed the construction of
seven campus dormitories, with the aim of uniting the
many non-fraternit}' men who were living off campus
into a compact social living group. This year, Richards
House, the first of these dormitories which was erected
in 1938, housed an ambitious crew of 210 freshmen.
In the Fall, the house was also graced by the feminine
charms of several hundred Housepart}' dates.
Mom may have done this at home, but fresh-
men learn quickly the purpose of the white
machines in their basements.

Leonard Hall
Leonard Hall, founded in 1907, is a combination
residence house, fraternity, and religious institution.
It was organized by the late Reverend Ethelbert Talbot,
a Bethlehem clergyman and Lehigh trustee, with the
purpose of aiding in the preparation of Lehigh students
for a career in the Episcopalian ministry.
Actually, Leonard Hall is officially classified as a
fraternity and is represented by the Greek name Alpha
Chi Epsilon. Leonard differs from the other Lehigh
fraternities in that its members are pledged at the
beginning of their freshman year, and remain in resi-
dence there for the full four years of college life.
The residents of Leonard Hall have distinguished
themselves throughout the years in all phases of college
activities: in the classroom, on the athletic field, in
various administrative posts, and as members of many
honor societies.

Taylor Hall
Erected in 1907. Taylor Hall has the distinction of
being the oldest dormitory on the Lehigh campus.
Taylor, which housed 170 upperclassmen this year,
can turn the clock back over years of proud tradition.
The house was the gift of steel magnate Andrew
Carnegie, who requested that it be named after his
friend Charles Taylor, a Lehigh trustee. In 1933 a
destructive raid on the dormitory by Lafayette students
ii^nited an intense rivalry between men of Taylor and
Lafayette which still manages to spring up each year
just prior to the big football tilt with the Leopards.
For these students who wish to take a study
break but don't want to walk to the Center,
these vending machines are available.

McClintic-Marshall
iSIcClintic-Marshall House, the newest dormitory at
Lehigh, was completed in 1956, and for a year was
simply called the "New Dorm". The official dedication
was held on September 28, 1957, when the large, mod-
ern structure was named atfer Howard Hale McClintic
and Charles Donnell Marshall, distinguished Lehigh
graduates of the Class of '88.
An outstanding feature of M&M is the spacious
recreation room. This room was put to excellent use
after all home football games and many social func-
tions.
A bit of Christmas cheer appears in McClin-
tic-Marshall as the finishing touches are put
on the annual tree.
This group of electronic engineers gives
careful perusal to a new device designed to
keep students: averages at a low level.
It's term paper time and one student finishes

Gryphon Society
The members of the Gryphon Society provide one
of the most important and thankless services at Lehigh.
These upperciassmen must assume the roll of both
counselor and friend to the 670 freshmen residing on
campus. Since the freshman year is a period of great
adjustment for students, the importance of efficient and
understanding counselors cannot be underestimated.
The Gryphon Society, organized in September, 1957,
consisted this year of forty-two members. The aim of
the Gryphons has been and will continue to be the
guidance of first-year men and the establishment of a
strong freshman social program.

Physical Education
. . . aiding m physical growth
The Division of Atliietics and Physical Education is
a vital part of the University's educational program.
Appreciating the ancient Greek goal of "a sound mind
in a sound body", the gym staff strives to improve the
physical fitness of the undergraduate, just as the class-
room sector seeks to develop and sustain his academic
achievement. The three-phase athletic program consists
of regular physical education, intercollegiate competi-
tion, and intramural sports.
Through its program of required gym participation,
the Division of Physical Education aims to insure the
health and physical development of every Lehigh stu-
dent. Self-confidence, good sportsmanship, and a spirit
of cooperation are valuable by-products of the course.
Freshmen and sophomores are scheduled for physical
education three times a week, and gymnasium facilities
are always open to upperclassmen during the regular
school day.
During the past few years, the intramural program
has grown tremendously. This year the rivalry was
particularly keen as fraternity, dormitory, and town
groups vied for the All-University Sport Trophy. Parti-
By the look on this hopeful, Charles Atlas face, he seems to

cipation in such activities as -touch football, tennis,
basketball, swimming, wrestling, track, softball, and
volleyball brought competitors cumulative points to
enhance their living group standings. The highlight o£
the program, as usual, was the mid-Winter Fight Night,
which spotlighted the deciding play-offs for the Univer-
sity intramural wrestling champs.
The Division of Intercollegiate Athletics sponsors
twelve varsity sports, five junior varsity squads, and
many freshman teams. The successes of this program
bring spirit and life to the University campus and carry
the name and fame of Lehigh to rival schools through-
out the East.
Lehigh lost a devoted and enthusiastic man this year
with the departure of John Steckbeck from the gym
staff. As Assistant Director of Physical Education, he
was loved by thousands of underclassmen who passed
through his P.E. program. Memories of "Steck" will
not soon be forgotten: his booming voice sounding out
the commands of the "Lehigh Conditioner"; his lively
wit and personality at pep rallies, banquets, and Flag-
pole Day; and his established traditions of the Turkey
Trot and Fight Night.

Football
a year of squad rcbuildiHg
It was one o£ those seasons for football.
One of those seasons that could have been very
successful — or very disastrous.
But, as it turned out, it was neither.
Three games wound up in deadlocks, games that,
had they been won, would have made the 1958 cam-
paign, in which the Engineers were plagued by the
loss of many veterans via the graduate route, one of
the most surprising in the history of Lehigh football.
They were games that, had they been lost, would
have made Lehigh fans bemoan a terrible year.
But the gridders took the middle road — the road
of ties.
The remaining games also wound up in a deadlock
of sorts — so far as the final record is concerned. Three
of them were won, three lost. The final season mark:
3-3-3.
And they were the crucial tilts that wound up in
ties — Gettysburg, a team that was surprisingly strong
but still a club that was weak enough to make a loss
a terrible blow to the Engineers' pride; Virginia Mili-
tary Institute, almost the same Keydets who last year
wrecked Lehigh's bid for an undefeated year (for
Lehigh, this tie termed a "moral" victory) ; and finally
Lafayette, always the big one, always the game that
can spell the difference between success or failure in
a particular season (it was almost natural that this one
should wind up in a tie) made the year a complete
stalemate.
But the year did have a couple of promising fea-
tures— most of them sophomores, who almost com-
pletely dominated play. Lehigh football fans were

The sophs dominated the 1958 statistics. Big names
were Al Richmond, Al Gross, Bob Scheu, and Ed
Murphy.
Gross, who can both run and pass, led the team in
total offense with 392 yards — 248 of them rushing.
Richmond, voted the outstanding back in the Lafay-
ette game, gained 280 yards on the ground to take
rushing laurels. He averaged six yards per carry.
Scheu led the passers with 298 yards on 25 com-
pletions.

after his yeoman work against Western Reserve.
The team itself showed its faith in these sophs by
electing two of them, Richmond and Murphy, to cap-
tain the 1959 squad. The last time a sophomore was
elected captain was in 1915.

Losing 7-0 at halftime, Lehigh scored early in the
third period on a freak play when Tom DeFlavis went
back to punt, received a bad pass from center, and
had to lug the ball instead. He did — 35 yards beyond
a surprised Blue Hen line. He was finally brought
down from behind by a fleet-footed secondary man.
But he set up the touchdown which came several
plays later.
With the squad behind by one point, Coach Bill Leck-
onby gambled on the new two-point after-touch
down rule and won. Quarterback Scheu skirted left
end and went over standing up. Neither team threat-
ened again, and the Engineers won it, 8-7.
It was the two-point play that again saved the day
at Gettysburg. Lehigh was down 14-12 after scoring
late in the fourth quarter; this time Leek had to go
for the two-point score. The Engineers failed on the
first attempt, but a penalty against the Bullets gave
them a second chance. On the second try, fullback Ron
Lauretti, the first Lehigh player to ever successfully
make the switch from lineman to back, bulled over

The first loss of the season came the following week
at Cambridge, Mass., where the Crimson of Harvard
paced by sophomore quarterback Charlie Ravenel bop-
ped the Packers, 20-0. Its offense completely stymied
by a strong Harvard line, Lehigh picked up only a
total of 89 yards.
Apparently stung by the setback at Cambridge, the
Engineers the following Saturday took out their anger
on the Red Cats of Western Reserve — to the tune of
47-0. An estimated Parents' Day crowd of 10,800
watched the home club plow through the Western
Reserve team almost at will.
But the prosperity wasn't destined to last long.
The Houseparty dates saw much the same kind of
game that the parents had seen the week before —
only this time Lehigh was on the short end of a
lopsided score. Rutgers, out for revenge after last
year's defeat, did just that — in the grand style of
44-13. Not even the rainy weather or the muddy Taylor

Stadium turf could stop the Scarlet's All-American Bill

of the 1958 campaign.

by 15 sophomores, brained the Bisons, 35-14. With the
members of the Class of 1961 playing most of the
game, Lehigh fans got some indication of what the
club would look like in the next two years.
Returning from Lynchburg, Va., a week later, the
Big Brown received a welcome almost unprecedented
m Lehigh history. More than 500 students, the band,
and cheerleaders turned out, despite a rainstorm, to
cheer the victorious (for all practical purposes) team
that had tied VML 7-7. The Keydets were practically
the same that had stopped an Engineer win streak and
spoiled an unbeaten year in 1957.
A sensational 77-yard pass play from quarterback
Bobby Scheu to senior end Bud Wenzel gave the En-
gineers their only score at Lynchburg. But offense was
not the team's principal forte that afternoon; three
times Lehigh, led by the sparkling play of tackle Bill
Beattie, stopped the Keydets less than five yards from
the goal line.
The defense wasn't the same the next week in the
Buffalo game. The Bulls, who later were awarded the

The only trouble was that the clock continued clicking,
and four touchdowns were all that the timepiece would
allow. The Packers succumbed, 34-26.
Next came the big one against the Leopards from
Easton. The Lehigh club had to rally again this time
— but this time it was just enough — another tie, 14-14.
The team went into the locker room at the end of
the first half on the short end of a 14-0 score. The sec-
ond time the Big Brown took the ball after intermis-
sion, it was on its way "down the field". The drive
was stopped, however, on the one-yard line of Lafay-
ette and the Leopards took over. But on third down,
Lafayette fumbled on the six, and the Packers were
given a second chance. On second down, a quickie
pass over the center of the line from George Theiss
to Joe Wenzel produced a score. The Engineers then
made it a new game as Theiss sliced through the line
for two extra points.
In the fourth period, Al Richmond paced the drive
that netted the tying touchdown. He started the march
by running back a punt 11 yards to the Lehigh 37. A
few plays later he broke loose for 32 yards to the
Leopard 10.
On second down from that yard stripe, Al Gross
hustled nine yards to the Leopard one. Then on fourth

down fullback Charlie Lull bulled his way over for
the six-pointer.
Frank Koziol, who rarely misses on a point-after-
touchdown kick, booted wide on this one, and the
game wound up a stalemate to wind up a stalemate
year.
Playing their final game against Lafayette were
seniors Bill Beattie, John O'Ryan, Dave Nevil, Fran
Schaeffer, Tom DeFlavis, John Stanley, Dick Hunt,
Charlie Burger, Joe Wenzel, Ron Lauretti, and Stanley
Stoney.
These 11 never tasted defeat at the hands of the
Leopards. In their sophomore and junior years, Le-
high won decisively — then the tie in their senior year.
It was only the fifth class that was never defeated.
The other four, however, won all three games.
With the experienced sophomores returning, the cry
on South Mountain ^during the winter months was the
same as it was in Flatbush while the Dodgers cavorted
there: "Wait 'til next year".

Soccer . . middle atlaMtlc champs
The soccer team compiled its best record in recent
years in 1958 as a sophomore-dominated lineup booted
its way to an 8-2 mark.
Losing only one game in regular season play, the
hooters copped the Northern Division title of the Mid-
die Atlantic Conference, but then lost to perennially
powerful Drexel in a special playoff for the conference
crown. The playoff score was 5-2. The season loss came
at the hands of Swarthmore, 4-1.
The hooters' percentage mark in 1958 trailed only
1917's 3-0 record, and the total number of wins trailed
only 195 1's 10 victories. In 1951, however, the soccer
team lost three games.
And the team was not without its individual stars.
Sophomore Bill Holden, in his first year of varsity
competition, set a new Lehigh record by tallying 15
goals. Fullback Harry Brooks, captain and one of the
few seniors on the team won a place on the AU-MAC
team. Goalie George Rauch was honorable mention
All-American.
Cross Country
. a losing record
There's an old saying that all good things must come
to an end.
The cross country team in 1958 discovered just how
much truth that statement contains. During the three
years previous, the runners had lost only two meets
while piling up an impressive 19 victories. In 1957,
the squad compiled an unbeaten record.
But, in 1958, it was a ditiferent story — the long-dis-
tance runners lost twice as many matches as they had
in the previous three years, and were able to garner
but one victory.
The lone win came at the expense of neighboring
Muhlenberg College, 15-40. In cross country, in which
the low score wins, this amounted to a shutout — to
compensate perhaps for the fact that Lehigh was shut
out of the win column during the remainder of the
year.
The team was shocked early m December when it
learned that Fred Krehbiel, top runner on the '57
squad, and '58 captain, had been killed in an auto
mishap.

Although not winning any of the regattas in which
it participated during the Fall, the Sailing Club still
managed to turn in a respectable record against some
of the top sailing groups of the East. In five meets,
all of which had more than five teams entered, Lehigh
picked up three seconds, a third, and a fourth.
Racing in the Middle Atlantics, the club scored a
seventh among 24 entries.
Sailing Club members were hoping to do even better
in Spring competition. The sport is the only one at Le-
high that has a split season. Some contests are raced
during the Fall, with the remainder in the Spring.
Sailing is also unique among Lehigh teams for an-
other reason:
It is the only sport where there is no competition
against just one other team. Most races see almost a
dozen different teams battling for the first place.

Wrestling
best in the East
GERALD G. LEHMAN
Coach
The wrestlers weren't undefeated in 1958-59 as they
had been the previous year, but in many respects this
year's dual-meet campaign was better than 1957-58.
One of the big respects was a victory over perenially
potent Pitt, 16-12, in one of the most thrilling matches
to be seen at Grace Hall in recent years. Last year, only
a tie with Pittsburgh marred an otherwise perfect slate.
This year, the only blemish on the team's record was
the opening 14-11 loss to Cornell, the 1958 Eastern
champion. The squad won the rema;ining 10 matches.
In that match, Lehigh went into the 177-pound bout
with an 11-8 lead, but lost the last two bouts and with
them the match. One of these losses surprised the capa-
city Grace Hall audience — tough Ed Hamer was de-
cisioned by Al Marion, 2-1. It was his only loss in the
dual-meet season.
One of the grapplers that became known to sports-
writers as "Lehigh's Big Five," Hamer won his next
10 bouts, tu'O of them by pins.
Other members of the Big Five included Captain
Dick Santoro and Leon Harbold, both seniors, and a
couple of sophomore sensations, Greg Ruth and Thad
Turner. Among them, the group compiled a composite
record of 44 wins, three losses, and six draws. Neither
Santoro nor Ruth lost a single match although they
each drew one. The other three each lost only one, while
Turner drew one and Harbold three.
But perhaps the wrestler who became most popular
with the large number of Lehigh wrestling buffs was
little Johnny DriscoU — mainly because of what can
sophisticatedly be called intestinal fortitude, but which
fans described as "guts".
DriscoU, a natural 157-pounder, wrestled heavy-
weight throughout most of the campaign — usually
against men who outweighed him by more than 50
pounds. In this competition, he split six bouts.
302
:>
His first loss came against Dave Dunlop, 1958 EIWA
champ from Cornell. But this Big Red heavyweight,
who scaled some 55 pounds more than DriscoU, knew
he had been in a fight.
With the match score knotted at 11- 11, DriscoU
fought the Cornell heavy to a 1-1 draw for the greater
part of three periods. But knowing that he needed a
win for a Lehigh victory, he attempted a takedown in
the closing seconds of the last period. Dunlop was just
too big and too strong, and DriscoU, instead, found
himself on the bottom. The Cornell man picked up
another point for time to win the bout, 4-1.
The Big Five went through the next three matches
undefeated as Syracuse fell, 19-8; Penn State went
down, 17-8; and Princeton was crushed, 23-2.
But the next match against a supposedly weak Yale
team almost brought disaster. Only a last-second take-
down by Ed Hamer squeezed out the victory for the

bout, the Yale man had time advantage with the score,
2-2. Hamer was only five seconds away from a loss
when he bulled his opponent to the mat for the win.
Lehigh eventually lost the heavyweight bout, as anti-
cipated, but still had enough points to win, 15-11.
After lambasting the U. S. Naval Academy, 22-5, and
the U. S. Military Academy, 22-6, the Engineers were
face-to-face with the big test of the season — the tough
University of Pittsburgh grapplers.
A capacity crowd, minus the hundreds of fans who
had to be turned away because there was just no more
room in Grace Hall, was on hand expecting Bethle-
hem's biggest wrestling show of the year. They weren't
disappointed.
Lehigh spotted the Panthers eight points in the first
two bouts as Jim Schmoyer was pinned and Ed Slater
decisioned. But then came the Big Five.
Leon Harbold easily decisioned his opponent, 7-0.
But Dick Santoro was surprised by Bob Bubb and had to
settle for a 4-4 tie. Greg Ruth won, 5-2. Thad Turner
could only gain a draw, and Hamer won, 3-1-

13-12, and set the stage for the heavyweight bout in
which Johnny DriscoU found himself pitted against
Bob Guzik who weighed in at more than 200 pounds.
Neither man was able to gain a takedown in the
initial period. But then shortly before the end of the
second three minutes, Driscoll escaped to grab the lead,
1-0. But he still had to hold Guzik for the final three
minutes if he wanted to win the bout and with it the
match.
And in a David vs. Goliath-type finish, hold him he
did. With a tight scissor around the leg of the big Pitt
man, Driscoll stymied every move for a reversal or an
escape, rode his man the entire last period, and won,
1-0.
The partisan crowd swooped down from the stands
at the final buzzer and carried him to the dressing room.
The next three matches against Franklin and Mar-
shall, Rutgers, and Hofstra were easily won by the
Engineers and served as nothing more than a warmup
for the Easterns.
F&M was dumped 21-8; Rutgers was clobbered to
the tune of 19-8; and little Hofstra was brained, 29-3.

Nationals
Paced by three individual champions, a second-place
winner, and two third-place finishers, Lehigh in 1939
won its first Eastern Intercollegiate Wrestling title in
1 1 years. It was the first since Gerry Leeman took over
the reins of the club.
The Engineers piled up a total of 64 points. Penn
State was second with 51.
Individual champs were Dick Santoro at 137, Johnny
DriscoU at 147, and Ed Hamer at 177. Santoro was also
awarded the Fletcher Trophy.
Sophomore Thad Turner advanced to the finals be-
fore being defeated by Tom Alberts of Pitt. Leon Har-
bold and Greg Ruth took third places.
For the first time since Eddie Eichelberger did the
trick in 1956, Lehigh this year had a dual EIWA and
National champion — Ed Hamer.
Hamer dropped from 177 to 167 before going out
to the Nationals in Iowa City, Iowa. Fighting at the
lower weight, he breezed through his preliminary bouts
and then bulled his way to a 4-0 win over Tom Alberts
of Pittsburgh in the finale.
Other Lehigh wrestlers did not fare as well in the
tournament won by Oklahoma State with 73 points.
The Engineers, who advanced only Hamer past the
quarter-final round, scored 20 points to take eighth
place in a field of 67.
Ed Hamer seems strained as he holds doivn Pittsburgh's Tom Alberts in the third period

went on to win the bout, making him Lehigh' s only champ.

Basketball
first year in big time
ANTHONY PACKER
Coach
The 1958-59 season was Lehigh's first in the basket-
ball big time of the East. In many respects, it was a
disastrous season, as the Engineers, little in basketball,
came up against such court giants as LaSalle, Lafayette,
St. Joseph's, and Army. The charges of Coach Tony
Packer were able to pick up only six wins in a 22-game
campaign.
Packer predicted at the beginning of the year that
any win by Lehigh would be of the upset variety. And
indeed they were.
The first upset, however, came early. The Owls of
Temple University came to Grace Hall for the first
game of the season riding on -the crest of a 24-game
regular season winning streak only to see it shattered,
70-66, by the Engineers.
But this wasn't the same Temple squad that had
compiled the long streak. It was hurt considerably by
graduation losses, and early Lehigh hopes of a success-
ful year were soon to prove false.
In the following three games, the Engineers were
beaten decisively by Delaware, 60-47; Bucknell, 74-52;
and LaSalle, 81-47.
But their most conclusive win of the year came in
the following tilt when the Lions of Albright were
bopped by a 69-56 game. The Lions were in Lehigh's
class.
That was the last win, however, that the squad was
to experience for some time — 10 games to be exact.
During the Christmas vacation, the Engineers par-
ticipated in the Long Invitational Tournament at Hof-
stra and dropped all three tilts. Only bright spot here
was the sparkling play of Captain Denis Brenan, who
scored more than 15 points in each game. He was
named to the All-Tourney team. Against Hofstra,
Brenan set the Lehigh season record of most points

scored as he canned 24 counts on 10 field goals and a
quartet of free throws.
After this tournament came losses to Lafayette,
Gettysburg, Muhlenberg, Franklin and Marshall, Army,
Gettysburg, and Lafayette, in that order. The wins by
the Leopards of Lafayette were the 32nd and 33rd
consecutive victories that the squad from Laston has
racked up against the Engineers.
But then came a different story — the charges of Tony
Packer went off on their largest win streak of the cam-
paign— three games. Victories came over Dickinson,
75-67; and Rutgers, 56-45 and 38-36.
After losses to Penn State and Delaware, the Packers
came through with their biggest win of the year by
scoring an upset over Muhlenberg, 79-66, at the Allen-
town court of the Mules. Lehigh had gone into this
tilt as a 30-point underdog by virtue of its early season
loss to the Berg club, 91-62.
The Lehigh team looked good in the final game of
the year also, even though it dropped an 85-63 decision
to the Hawks of St. Joseph's College, the team that was
later to represent the Middle Atlantic Conference in
the NCAA tournament. But the score in this one didn't
tell the whole story. The Engineers were down by 25
points in the first half and then outscored their larger
opponents in the second half by three counters.

Top scorer for the Lehigh team during the 1958-39
season was senior Norm Zelenko who tallied a total
of 179 points in 19 games for a 9--i average. Zelenko
also had the season record for total free throws in a
single game when he converted nine against the Nittany
Lions of Penn State University.
Top rebounder for the Lehigh squad was 6-6 senior
Arnie Balgalvis, who dragged 196 off the boards. He
scored 176 points in 22 games for an 8.0 average.
Captain Denis Brenan was second in average and
third in scoring. He tallied 164 points in 20 games for
an 8.2 average.
As a team, the Engineers averaged only 57 points
per game as compared with almost 68 for their oppo-
nents. Ironically, the team's season low came in the
Rutgers win when only 38 points were dunked through
the hoops. The Scarlett Knights, however, were only
able to tally 36 points in the defensive battle.
Even though Packer is losing three of his starters, he
is still confident that next year Lehigh will have a
better season. The club had a great number of sopho-
mores who, because of the losing year, were able to grab
invaluable experience. Outstanding among the sophs
were Ross CuUigan and Jack Palfi.
But the biggest noise for the Packers next year will
probably be two boys who played freshman ball this
year. Norm Brandl has the potential to become one of
the top scorers in the school's history. He averaged
about 30 points a game in freshman competition.
Another frosh. Bob Happ, averaged almost 20.

Skiing
eMjoymg one of winter's favorite sports
Skiing was one sport that was pursued by Lehigh
students only for fun during 1958-59-
The Skiing Club, one of a number of sports clubs
on the Lehigh campus, participated in no intercol-
legiate competition during the year. Its participation
in the sport was limited to several weekends at the
Big Boulder ski run at Split Rock in the Poconos.
The general lack of snow during the year hampered
the club somewhat in its pursuit of this snow sport.
However, the Split Rock ski run is covered with arti-
ficial snow.
The Skiing Club is financed by the members them-
selves who pay five dollars in dues per year. The money
is used primarily to cover transportation costs.

Hockey
. . . a season of vast Improvement
Despite a 2-6 season record, the year proved to be a
very bright one for the Hockey Club. The skaters im-
proved their financial position, drew over 500 fans in
a series of four home games, replaced much of their
worn equipment, and acquired the services of Mike
Runey, a rising freshman star.
The stickmen managed to win only against Penn
and Villanova during the season, but Runey and several
other up-and-coming skaters provided promise for the
future. Other clubs faced this year included Long
Island, New Rochelle, and Hill.
A highlight of the season was a match sponsored by
Lehigh's North Jersey Alumni Club. The Engineers
faced Penn before 800 spectators. Financially, the team
fared well, receiving much support including a $500
anonymous gift which helped to buy the new equip-
ment.

and one school standard, copped six of 13 first places,
and picked up 21 medals. Outstanding natators includ-
ed Marty Maloney and Brian McHugh.

Rifle Team
a 'record ' season
Lehigh teams just didn't come any more successful
than the rifle squad in 1958-59, as the Brown and White
sharpshooters compiled a perfect 8-0 dual-match record.
And it was in grand style that they did it. Prior to
this year, the record high for a Lehigh rifle team was
1410 points. This record flew by the boards in the
fourth match of the season against LaSalle, as a total
of I4l4 was registered.
The rifle team then went on to shoot 1413 against
Penn State, 1425 in a triangular meet against George-
town and Washington and Lee. The season closed with
another record-breaking 1430-1426 victory over St.
John's, one of the outstanding teams in the East.

With a number of veterans returning, Lehigh's
fencing team turned in a very respectable 6-3 season
record for 1958-59. The mark was a big improvement
over the four wins and five losses of the year previous.
Wins this year came at the expense of Rutgers, 14-13 ;

Big disappointment for the fencers, however, was
their failure to win the Middle Atlantic Conference

Golf
fourth in MAC Zoumey
Lehigh's golfers won their third Middle Atlantic

team went over the American Legion Country Club
course at Mount Union, Pa., in 688 strokes.
Sophomore Stewart Iliffe, who was the top Brown
and White golfer in regular season play, also paced the
team in the tournament with a l6l score for the 36
holes. Bill Cumminges was second with 166, Sam
Hartung third with 167, and John Ramsey fourth with
174.
The regular season was another winning one for the

Track . . . a new mile record set
John Diiscoll seems out to prove that his athletic prowess
is not confined to the narrow area of a wrestling mat as he
clears the high bar in a successful jump.
The big noise for the track team in 1958 was Wight
Martindale who waltzed to an easy win in the Middle
Atlantic Conference tournament.
For Martindale, who first ran long-distance when he
romped to an impressive victory in the 1956 Turkey
Trot, this was the highpoint in a rags-to-riches career.
Coach John Steckbeck's thinclads, as a team, had
a losing season as they compiled a 2-3 record. The team
bopped Delaware in the opening meet, 68-57, then
placed a distant second in a triangle meet against Penn
and Rutgers. U. of P. picked up 911/2 counters, while
Lehigh tallied, 41, and Rutgers, 38.
The team then lost to Haverford, 55-71, and to
Lafayette, 541/2-711/2, before clobbering Temple, 108-
17. The year closed with a fourth in the Middle At-
lantics.

Baseball
good start — boom
The 1958 Lehigh baseball squad played almost the
same kind of ball as had its predecessors. In 1957, the
team's record was 6-9- In 1958, it was also 6-9 with a
tie thrown in just to break the monotony.
Paced by the lusty swatting o£ Bob Hirsch, the
Engineers began the season with a trio of victories.
Swarthmore bowed, 11-6, in the opener, followed by
Farleigh Dickinson, 8-3, and Hofstra, 3-0.
Up to the Hofstra game, Hirsch was clipping the
ball at a phenomenal .750 pace. Though he still wound
up the year with a very respectable .371, good enough
for the Lehigh batting crown, his hits were a bit more
spaced, and so were the Lehigh wins.
The next victory after Hofstra came against Rutgers,
6-2, five games later. Other wins were at the expense
of Bucknell, 7-1, and neighboring Muhlenberg, 3-2.
Other individual leaders for the charges of Tony
Packer, in addition to Hirsch, were Captain Dick Hoog-
straten whose 11 rbi's were tops, and Fred Homsher,
whose two homers gave him the slugging title.
Offensive [ilay. as well as defensive, pointed the ivaj to

Lacrosse
another loser
Lehigh and U . of P. midfielders collide as the Quakers stage
a late rally to beat the Engineers, 6-3; Penn scored four goals,
giving the lacrosse teafn one of its eight losses of the year.
It was another dismal season for the lacrosse team
in 1958.
The stickers picked up only two wins to equal the
1957 victory total, and double the total for the two
years previous to that.
And it was the two same teams that bowed to the
Brown and White in 1957 that also went down to
defeat in 1958. Franklin and Marshall was clobbered,
21-2, in the opening game of the campaign, and Lehigh
fans began predicting that things were going to change
on the lacrosse front.
But after that. Engineer rooters had little to cheer
about as the stickmen topped only Lafayette in the
remaining nine games. The Leopards, who were nosed
out 6-5 in 1957, lost 6-3 in 1958.
Tennis
. . . Eastern J uter collegiate title holders
The 1958 tennis team started slowly with successive
-t-5 losses to Swarthmore and Haverford, but more
than made up for this at the end of the season as it
copped the team championship in the Eastern Inter-
collegiate Tournament.
Top individual performer for Coach Gerry Leeman's
club was Lowell Latshaw who blasted his way to the
singles crown in the EIC, and then teamed with Bill
Scarlett to give Lehigh a clean sweep of the tourna-
ment.
The middle of the season was also successful so far
as the tennis team was concerned. After the opening
game losses, it romped to easy wins over six opponents,
before dropping another 4-5 match to Bucknell. The
netters closed out the regular season with a 5-4 victory
over arch-rival Lafayette.
Lowell Latshaiv proved in the Eastern In-
ter-collegiate tennis championships that this
Steel Field practice pays ojf.

Intramurals
. . niaintammg physical fitHCSS
The intramural program suffered a blow in 1959
when Coach John Steckbeck, who in three years as its
head had whipped intramurals into outstanding shape,
resigned in the middle of the second semester.
George Halfacre, freshman football coach, was
named to take over the PE office until a successor to
Steckbeck is chosen next Fall.
Among the many innovations devised by Steck, as he
was known to the students, was the Turkey Trot won
this year by Dick Nowalk. The team title for this pre-
Thanksgiving run around South Mountain was garnered
by Sigma Nu.
In the three years that the Trot has been in existence,
it has developed into the most-participated-in single
event on the campus sports scene. More than 300 men
compete in it annually.
Steckbeck also revised Fight Night, when fraternity
and dormitory champions battle it out for the University
title in the various wrestling weights, to the stage where
it draws almost as many fans as a varsity match. This
Mamtainlng physical fitness is an important
objective of the intramural program, and
these participants are giving it their all.
Fight Night, the culmination of several
days of elimination wrestling, finds these
two hopeful champions pitting their skills
against one another.
It's "skins" against the "shirts" in one of
Lehigh's expanded intramural program
games, held so that each student may have
the opportunity to participate in one of the
many athletic events.
year's living group champion in intramural wrestling
was Chi Phi in a walkaway.
The 1958 winner of the coveted All-University, AU-
Around sports trophy was Chi Psi, ending a five-year
monopoly on the cup by Sigma Nu.
In 1958-59, intramural events were held in every
major sport as well as such semi-sports as ping-pong,
foul shooting, and others.
A "brawny" specimen of the Lehigh male feverishly ivorks
at improving his already sinuous frame in an attempt to
prepare himself for a forthcoming Houseparty.
Starting on bis leap upwards, this budding "volley-bailer"
attempts to return a high smash in one of the many intra-
mural dormitory contests.
Fight Night
Chi Phi triumphant
Amassing a total of 72 points, Chi Phi fraternity
topped all Greek and dormitory competition in 1959
to cop the Fifth Annual Fight Night Tournament.
Chi Phi was able to beat both Phi Gamma Delta, the
fraternity champion, and Richards 3A, town residence
hall champion, on the basis of a strong showing in the
finals of the big wrestling intramural tournament.
Coach George Halfacre, who conducted this year's
Fight Night, estimated that more than 375 students
wrestled during the four-day schedule. Some 600 had
signed up, and more than 400 weighed in.
Behind Chi Phi in the team standings were Phi
Gamma Delta with 69 points, Sigma Phi Epsilon, 61;
Drinker 4, 59; Richards 2A, 56; Chi Psi, 55; Richards
3 A, 53; Tau Delta Phi, 52; and Beta Theta Phi, 51.
The All-University Sports Trophy, symbolic of intramural
supremacy, is much coveted by both dormitory and fraternity
living groups.
Phi Gam's entry at 165 pounds, Doug Edivards, stalks his
dortn opponent, Ed Bradway, tvhom he finally pinned.
John Hess of Chi Phi proceeds to squeak out a 2-0 decision
over Bill Burrows for the All-University title at 185 pounds.
MEMORIES;

In Retrospect
. a year's [rimhus and serious episodes
Spring returned to Bethlehem, and undergraduate
blood and undergraduate imaginations warmed to the
vernal equinox. From the ilagpole, a swastika banner
hung, aloof from the combined removal efforts of
Lehigh's contingent of Air Force sergeants and the
Bethlehem Fire Department. Only when an unsym-
pathetic tree surgeon loaned a pruner, did the flag
fall, plucked from the pole. Quickly removed from
the scene, it disappeared from Lehigh eyes, but anony-
mous faculty members viewed the stunt as "imagin-
ative".
Flagpole Day came, without a flag of any affilia-
tion, and then was gone as Lehigh men looked for-
ward to finals and Summer vacation.
By the grace of the far-seeing administration.
Summer lasted an extra week, and we returned long
after Labor Day.
Lehigh was much the same at first glance. Grass
had grown over the grave of the old math building,
its inhabitants long since installed in Christmas- Saucon.
Lamberton, sporting a new fire escape to hail the
change inside, now offered languages instead of
lunches, and was pine-paneled and proud of its ear-

logical, educational and aesthetic improvements here
and elsewhere were heralded by an even huskier tui-
tion figure, that put Lehigh in the ranks of the Ivy
League.

Taylor Stadium hi led for the hrst time in the new

vantage into victory over Delaware. That the win was
significant was a common hope, expressed with crossed
lingers.
Charity coffers filled with coppers as the philan-

After Harvard weekend, however, Lehigh's fortunes

ested in seeing what they were paying for, visited
Lehigh in record droves to see the Engineers defeat

Steel's eventual goal is a research laboratory which
will enhance the mount with long, low buildings that
look like cement greenhouses, and which will benefit
Lehigh with a new recreation center. The sound of
blasting was obscured however, by the "cooler" sounds
of Dave Brubeck, the Class of '59's Fall Houseparty
offering. In the Brown and White's Houseparty issue,
Cedar Crest exchange editors said they liked us, and
revealed a good taste unsuspected by contingents that
import their dates from more far-flung quarters.
Houseparty disappeared and the '58 gridiron record
was enhanced by a qualified "win" over a highly
favored VMI, 7-7. Morale ran high, and the freshmen
dragged their opposite numbers from Easton all over
the lot by virtue of a rope-load of muscles, straining
in reverse.

The year had washed away, quizzes and rushing
came and went, and the Class of '59 prepared to
graduate. Wondering where four years had so quickly
disappeared, we left Lehigh with mixed emotions of
men who watched the future with trepidation, and had
begun to miss the security of a brief past that had
meant so much. 'We said good-bye to Lehigh, to the

Bethlehem
. filUng our daily needs
A number of years ago a couple of Lehigh students
burned the Christmas tree on the Hill-to-Hill bridge
and in the process damaged a portion of the bridge
itself. Some Bethlehemites were incensed to the point
that they were ready to lead a march on the campus.
Then two years ago a group of Spring Houseparty
picnickers littered the Lehigh Parkway in AUentown.
The usually noncommital AUentown Morning Call was
so annoyed that it wrote in an editorial, "Swine would
and could not have acted as contemptibly as this group".
Finally, in July of 1957 several Bethlehem youths
jumped and beat a Lehigh student. The Brown and
White, noting that there was an anti-Lehigh attitude
in some quarters in Bethlehem, advocated that students
"travel in groups late at night".
The above are the incidents usually cited when a
"townee" or a "gownee" wants to make the point that
there is animosity between Lehigh Valleyites and Le-
high students.
The fact that so few such events can be marshalled
for a period of almost ten years is the best rebuttal
to any argument of that kind.
This view of the busy Hill-to-Hill bridge greets a Lehigh
shopper traveling North during the five o'clock rush hour.
Moreover, much evidence can be mustered to show
that town-gown relationships between Lehigh students
and residents of the Lehigh Valley are very good, in-
deed, and that both Lehigh and the Valley contribute
much to each other's welfare.
The editor of the Bethlehem Globe-Times, John
Strohmeyer, who can be reasonably expected to have
a better feeling of the pulse of his town than any
other man, said this past year that town-university re-
lationships are "among the very best I have ever seen".
Mr. Strohmeyer feels that Bethlehem itself is an
"above average college town". He gave two major
reasons:
First, Lehigh is cognizant of Bethlehem, much more
so than is the case in many other similar situations. He
said, "Lehigh offers its facilities and experts much
more than do most colleges". This is evidenced by the
large number of Lehigh faculty and administration
members who hold important posts in local service
clubs and other civic organizations.
When the Lehigh sl/ulent thinks of lof>
qiialily clothes, he thinks of Tom Bass
where the "Ivy" look predoiiiinates.

out the University are frequently

Second, in Bethlehem, "a student receives his great-
est welcome from the town's eligible young ladies" — ■
certainly something that many students are quite
pleased about. Mr. Strohmeyer admitted that he had
never seen this before.
Bethlehem Mayor Earl E. Schaffer seemed very well
pleased with his "part-time citizens" on South Moun-
tain.
And his sentiments were echoed by his full-time
citizens — the Bethlehem residents, even though one
of them complained about the students in a letter to
the Bethlehem Globe-Times early this year.
The irate letter writer asked that a pit be dug on
South Mountain for off-campus fraternities. He charged
further that these students were too loud, were unman-
nerly, and were even destructive.
But other residents sprang to the defense of the
Lehigh men. In a Broivii and IF/.7/>6'-sponsored poll of
persons living contiguous to Lehigh off-campus frater-
nities, the following views were uncovered:

One resident told the story about the fraternity house
that inadvertently burned rubbish on a wash day.

of the town residents — is just as heartening to the per-

Of course, many of the persons with whom he be-
came familiar while staying in Bethlehem were mer-

And with the merchants, the student had a one-to-
one relationship similar to that with the residents.
He needed the merchants and the merchants needed
him.
Rare, indeed, is the student who does not have a
great deal of personal contact with the Bethlehem
business man.
From the time the student arrives at Lehigh, he

In addition, he houses his dates at Lehigh Valley

taurants, purchases the food for the fraternity meals
and the ice and beer for the fraternity party from area
merchants, has his clothes cleaned at Valley laundries.
Again, ad infinitum go his contacts.
And the Bethlehem businessmen are glad to see the
student, also (unless, of course, the businessman hap-

One of the first things a freshman arriving at Le-

Executive secretary of the Bethlehem Chamber of
Commerce, Harry Trend, during the past year called
Lehigh one of Bethlehem's 'biggest industries" in terms
of dollars and cents. He added that it would be an
"economic catastrophe" if the University ever decided
to move to another locale.
Someone reminded him that there is no fear of this,
pointing out that with the current building and re-
modeling boom on South Mountain, the city will prob-
ably have the University for "at least a thousand years".
It was during this building boom that the student
came to know other residents of the Lehigh Valley —
the many carpenters, masons, plumbers, electricians,
engineers, architects, and others who worked for the
many contracting firms that helped Lehigh grow
physically in the last four years.
But it isn't only the Bethlehemites, or AUentonians,

reminisces about Lehigh in the years following his
graduation.
Chances are good that he'll remember, also, the
other part-time citizens who make the Lehigh Valley
their quasi-domicile for nine months out of the year.
These are naturally the co-eds at Cedar Crest, Mora-
vian, and Muhlenberg and the student nurses from
Allentown General, AUentown Sacred Heart, and
Bethlehem St. Luke's Hospitals.
There are few — if any — Lehigh students who dur-
ing their undergraduate years didn't have one date
from at least one of these institutions. And there are
many who had dates from all six.
Probably the favorite tramping ground for Lehigh
date-seekers is the Cedar Crest campus. After a Satur-
day night when a number of fraternities hold parties,
it is nearly impossible to drive onto that Allentown
campus without running into a traffic jam.
So many of the Lehigh men and Cedar Crest gals
get together for a lifetime that the two institutions
can almost be called mates by this time.
Yes, those Lehigh Valley residents, businessmen,
and quasi-residents can certainly say that Lehigh is a
nice institution to have around.
For that late-at-night study break or for just
plain refreshment, a Coke from one of the
many distributing machines around campus
really fills the bill.
Most of the plumbing and heating equip-
ment at the University comes from the
Hajoca Corporation of Bethlehem.
Acknowledgments
. , , . our thanks to the staff, faculty, and students
who have done so much to make this yearbook possible.
To Mr. Walton H. Hutchws. whose interest and aid in
every phase of publication made this yearbook
a success. Without his help, it can be truly said,
this annual would not have been possible.
To the Head of the Division of Journalism. Associate
Professor Joseph B. McFadden. who oversaw
the general production of the book and freely
offered his time to aid us in the solution of many
of our problems.
To the Class of 1959, out of whose funds a major
part of this book was financially supported.
To the students and faculty, who patiently cooperated
with us in the taking of pictures and supplying
of much of the information contained in the
book.
To Mrs. Dorothy Moravec, Mrs. Marge Szabo, Mrs.
Jean Foley, and Miss Judy Morgan, whose aid
in typing countless forms, copy, and many other
items freed us from looking after many details.
To the Presidents of all the honoraries, activities, and
living groups, who aided us in scheduling their
group pictures.
To the Office of Public Information and the Alumni
Bulletin, which supplied us with many of the
pictures on the preceding pages.
To Mr. Frank Weedon, Assistant University News
Editor, for his aid in compiling the vast amount
of data necessary to complete our sports pages.
To our advertisers, whose financial support kept this
book sound.
To Mr. William O'Connor of the Jahn and Oilier
Engraving Company, for his immeasurable as-
sistance in the design and layout of this book.
To Mr. Chester DeTurk of the Kutztown Publishing
Company, who aided us in the selection of the
varied type faces in the book.
To the photographers and staff of Merin Studios, who
aided us where it counted most, that is, in the
taking and processing of the many photographs
contained in this yearbook.
Finally, to the staff of the 1959 Epitome, whose devo-
tion to their job, which at times was extremely
tedious, for making this annual the success we
all hoped it would be.
The Editors.

Jahn & ODier plates are proofed by expert
printers in the Proofing Department to check
for quality reproduction before they are
shipped to the printers of the Epitome.
Jahn and Oilier
The quality of any yearbook is dependent upon the
quality of the reproduction of the pictures between its
covers. If the engraving of these pictures is inferior,
so will the book be inferior. The Epitome has been
fortunate for many years in having our pictures en-
graved by the Jahn and Oilier En graving Company,
one of the finest engravers in the country.
J&O's sixty-six years of experience in the photo-en-
graving business has enabled them to develop methods
which actually improve the quality of the pictures. In
many cases, for instance, imperfections are removed
by an air-brushing technique.
However, there is another side to the story of Jabn
and Oilier s service to the Epitome. The liaison between
the editors and the photo-engraving plant is an im-
portant link in maintaining adequate communications
between the two organizations. Producing a yearbook
is a complex business and it has its baffling problems.
William O'Connor, J&O's representative to the year-
book, has proved indispensable in the solution of these
problems. Bill, as he is known to yearbook staffs all
over the East, teaches fledgling editors the time-saving
shortcuts, which is the product of experience gained
by working with hundreds of yearbook staffs.
This is a section of J&O's Finishing Department where plates
are checked for proper size, and any necessary tooling is done.
Merin portrait photographer, Milt Cantor,
checks to see if everything is just right be-
fore photographing one of the many senior
Epitome portraits.
Merin Studios
The Epitome owes the quahty of its photographic
work directly to the efforts of Aierin Studios. Every
year this firm undertakes the tremendous task of taking
the multitude of pictures that a yearbook requires.
Each and every one of these pictures must be of the
highest quality. A single bad photograph can impair
the over-all character of the yearbook.
More than half of Merin Studios' time is devoted
to the taking of the senior portraits. Milton Cantor
is due credit for an excellent job. Although he spends
only a few minutes with each student, the finished
portraits are a perfection in photography.
Responsible for photographmg the large number of
groups that appear in the Epitome is Irving Jacobs.
Proof of his skill is the large number of pictures or-
dered by Lehigh students every year.
We of the Epitome staff are grateful to Marvin
Merin and his entire staff who have aided immeasur-
ably in the production of a yearbook outstanding, in
part, because of the quality of its photographs.
Senior portraits are touched tip in the studio
to produce the quality work that Merin is
knoivn for on many a college campus.
V--
Kutztown Publishing
The finished yearbook represents only the final phase
of the vast amount of work that the Kutztown Publish-
ing Company does for the Epitome.
For every page of finished copy that appears in the
Epitome. Kutztown set the type, and prepared galley
and page proofs. Copy, consisting of articles, captions,
and identifications, was first set in type and returned
to Lehigh as galley proofs. After proofreading by the
staff, the galley sheets were revised and returned to the
printer to be set in page forms with the engravings.
Then page proofs were checked by the editors before
the final printing could begin. Sometimes whole para-
graphs had to be reset by the patient linotype opera-
tors at Kutztown before the editors decided that the
wording and typography were as perfect as possible.
Only after this procedure was completed for every
page did the presses begin to roll in the final stage.
To help us in the solution of our many printing
problems, the Epitome was fortunate in having the
services of Chester DeTurk, who heads the Kutztoivn
shop. W^e also owe a special debt of gratitude to Jacob
R. Esser, assistant to his father, Charles H. Esser,
President, whose firm has been publishing the Epitome
for more than a decade.
THE KUTZTOWN PUBLISHING CO
IBS!
Fifteen jearhooks, including the Epitome, are printed
in this home of the Kutztown Publishing Co.
This row of linotype machines at Kutztown provides a wide variety of type styles and
sizes for the use of yearbook staffs.
