FOREWORD
ir»K«i
Cai'eful calculations indicate that over five thousand man-hours of
work have gone into the '59 Record. Whether these hours were spent as
efficiently as they might have been the editors seriously doubt. Whether
they have produced "the best yearbook ever" we leave to our readers. The
editors do hope, though, that out of the many moments of panic, missed
deadlines, and "fatal" errors, there has emerged a new type of Record
arising from a new concept in yearbook production.
Haverford annuals are traditionally produced in one-year stands by
a resigned, apathetic group of seniors. This year's editors attempted to
expand the book into something more than a senior class obligation. The
fact that the staff was comprised largely of underclassmen, that the '59
Record includes the writing of almost two hundred students, and that even
several Faculty members made valuable contributions seem to be favorable
signs of a change in the quality and character of the Record.
When it came time to pick a theme for the book, we found nothing
typically Haverford readily available for exploitation. Bryn Mawr had its
"Peanuts" cartoon strips, and we might have used "Pogo," but we pre-
ferred, instead, a book based on thorough organization, extensive coverage,
and humorous, non-annihilating writing. As for the latter, the editors
did not think it necessary to wage a one-sided cold war against the Admin-
istration, Faculty, and Business Office. We do not deny that there is room
for improvement. But we have tried to make our point mercifully.
Although this page appears at the beginning of the Record, it is
actually the last bit of copy to go to the printer. And so it is written at a
time when the editor would like to thank the staff for their many hours of
writing copy, taking pictures, and selling ads; the Students' Council for
deeming us worthy of the Edmund Jennings Lee Prize as the "organization
which has contributed most toward the furtherance of academic pursuits,
extracurricular activities, or college spirit during the year"; and above all,
John Coulthurst, business manager extraordinaire, who first made the
book possible financially and then devoted an infinite amount of time to
help the editor finish his half of the job. . . .
The last four years have passed quickly, and what once seemed to lie
in the distant future is now only part of the fading past. Although many
seniors are anxious to "move on" and a few claim immunity to any future
sentimental attachment to Haverford, the editors think that some day
even the hardest hearts will soften. For this reason, the 1959 Record, we
hope, will help keep alive in its pages for those who are leaving now, as
well as those who must do so in the next few years, some of the unfor-
gettable moments in our undergraduate life at Haverford.

ALDO CASELLI
The editors are happy to dedicate the 1959 Record to Aldo Caselli,
a gentleman whose job is not always a pleasant one, but whose approach
to his work is thoughtful, thorough, efficient, and dedicated to the welfare
of Haverford College.
The fact that the name Caselli is on every campus tongue and that
all paths at Haverford seem to lead to the Comptroller's office in Whitall
testifies to the effectiveness of Mr. Caselli's administration. His achieve-
ments since his arrival at the College in 1944 have been truly praise-
worthy: Haverford's annual financial report has been transformed into
perpetual black ; extensive renovations and repairs have been made in
various campus buildings; and dormitory rooms ai-e now cleaned more
frequently than the Friday afternoons of big weekends.
Nor has Mr. Caselli's financial wizardry been his only contributioii
to Haverford. His broad knowledge of music has been shared with
students in his well-attended and well-received course on Italian opera.
Mr. Caselli is obviously not a mere ambulatory adding machine : his is
a cultured, intelligent, outgoing personality. Such vigor and definition
of opinion cannot but engender comment and criticism. Suffice it to say
that Mr. Caselli is sensitive to the inevitable current of opinion about
him and his dynamic policies.
To Aldo Caselli, who performs an often thankless task capably and
devotedly, we respectfully dedicate this Record. We commend the man
who is rapidly becoming a legend.

IN MEMORIAM
KKHARl) M. BERNHEIMER
CHARLES E. MAYER
ALBERT H. WILSON
The Class of 1959 pauses in its Record to pay particular tribute to
Richard Bernheimer, a man whose name has all but become synonymous
with the history of art courses at Haverford. All who knew him miss the
familiar sight of his gigantic frame moving across campus towards Hilles
with the invariable box of slides under his arm. Richard Bernheimer's'
jovial face and tremendous optimism never once revealed the many hectic
years in his life, which spanned three nations and two continents. As a man
and as a scholar he continues to hold our greatest admiration.
Charles Mayer's death last fall abruptly ended thirty-three years of
intense activity. Coming to Haverford only two years ago, his enthusia.stic
and lively lectures kindled strong student interest in his field of neurologi-
cal determinants of behavior. Behind his firm and persistent devotion to a
rigorous positivistic philosophy was a rare sensitivity to the currents
of feeling that surrounded him. Possessing a remarkably high sense of
duty, he lived with faith and died with a firm hope for the future. Because
of an active teaching and research life, Haverford did not know "Charlie"
well. Too few of us knew the full measure of his sensitivity and integrity.
Although Albert Wilson had retired in 1939, he remained at Haver-
ford almost until his death. This grand old man of the mathematics depart-
ment devoted much time to the extensive tutoring of troubled students, and
his patience with confused minds was infinite. Quiet and unassuming, he
often made anonymous conributions to students in financial difficulty —
typical of his devotion to the College for almost half a century. His
existence was an expression of his love of people, and the numerous
recipients of his kind deeds mourn the loss of this great man.
The College was saddened in March by the death of John Kelly, pro-
fessor emeritus of German. Because Mr. Kelly was teaching at the time
of his death and was so much a part of our academic year, the editors
thought it most fitting to include him with the Germar. faculty rather than
on this page.

ADMINISTRATION AND FACULTY . .
ROBERTS HALL
Each fall, one hundred twenty-five simple,
optimistic youth pass down College Lane into
the waiting arms of Haverford's teachers and
administrators. About four months short of
four years later, approximately one hundred
thinking individuals and callous realists
emerge. Unlimited energy, a myriad of lec-
tures, and an infinite number of hour exams
have been plied by the Faculty to produce the
thinking individuals, while the callous realists
result from an equal amount of energy, omni-
present charges, and endless cut probation
emanating from stolid Roberts Hall. Of course,
the educational process is not all one-sided. The
Class of '59 hopes that the dedicated efforts of
its teaching and administering elders will have
been repaid in some degree by the satisfaction
of a moral victory.
A small group of astronomy students shares with Louis Green the intellectual advantage offered both teacher
and pupil by Haverford's hish faculty-student ratio.

HUGH BORTON
President
The College comnumity has had ample oppor-
tunity to get better acquainted with Hugh
Borton in this, his sophomore year as President.
After last year's round of inauguration, con-
gratulation, and initiation, Mr. Borton settled
down in his (dry) office in Roberts Hall to sink
his teeth into the myriad of tasks and problems
which continually beset the modern college
executive. How well he succeeded is difficult to
pinpoint. His policies were criticized for lack
of . . . policy! But as the year wore on, critics
were forced to admit that some of their criti-
cism was unfounded ; there was even deserved
praise for his stand on loyalty oaths for
government fellowships.
Having not yet shed all vestiges of his days at
Columbia, Mr. Borton also teaches a course in
East Asian Studies. Every Wednesday after-
noon, he leaves his sanctuary in Roberts to meet
the Haverford animal face to face across the
seminar table in Chase 1.
Students who take his course find that the
austere prexy has a fluent teaching method, a
shy wit, and a knack for making the intrigues
of the Tokugawa shoc/uns extremely vivid. Pic-
tures of mixed bathing in Japanese watering
places add life to the academic mood, and Mr.
Borton's deadpan rendition of an inane Chinese
play is a high spot of the course. Four Oriental
Bryn Mawr girls help create atmosphere and
blushingly serve as examples for illustrating
complex sociological problems. ("All Chine.se
fathers want boy babies. Now, with all due re-
spect to Miss Yen, Vm sure her father was quite
disappointed when .she was born . . .")
Thus it gradually becomes apparent, as Hugh
Borton finishes his second year at Haverford,
that he is not like "Uncle Billy" Comfort or
Felix Morley or Gilbert White. He is like Hugh
Borton.

"Mac is back!" was the joyful cry, and judg-
iiiK from the ovation he received in Collection,
Haverford was awfully glad to see its World-
Traveller-Vice-President on campus once again.
Archibald Miiclntosh, adorned in all his grey-
ing, bow-tied, and unassuming superiority,
(|uickly temijcred the joy, however, with a glib
"I wish I was back in Europe." For he had
fallen victim to the smiling hospitality of the
Swiss and the alumni-free atmosphere of Mat-
terhorn's summit. Haverford seemed to have
lost its charm for Mac. Wonder why.
Perhaps some of the enthusiasm which
greeted him was due to student hope for relief
from the "academic pressure" which, according
to uncountable ])olls, is the current thorn in the
undergraduate side. But he has kept hands off
the "professorial tyrants" and is interviewing
hundreds of Einstein-like applicants who thrive
on "academic pressui'e."
Mac's "gentle" face has given rise to a myth
concerning his "fatherly nature." However, re-
ports from drunkards, "downers," and Dining
Room rowdies who have had "chats" with him
have shattered this impression. He is calm and
easy-going, but he means business.
Mac is familiar, perhaps painfully so, with
student farces, foibles, and follies. He has been
admissions officer for more than a quarter of a
century, has acted as president on three occa-
sions, and is head of the College Entrance Ex-
amination Board. He knows all the answei's.
Dean William Cadbury, case history in hand, waits
for Mrs. .Andrews to announce the next supplicant.
\
Director of Admissions Archibald Macintosh learns
that two students from Tibet accept scholarships.
At Haverford no one desires to make the
Dean's Li.st, though one might think .so from
the queue in his waiting room. In the shadow
of Mrs. Andrews' benignly indifferent face,
they sit against the wall, those hollow men,
squinting over white cards, scratching heads,
abandoning themselves in 1950 issues of the
Neiv Yorker, or vainly looking for humor in
the Louisiana Summer School BitUeti)i.
"Next!" Knees wobble and the sedentary
musical chairs go through another .shift as the
chosen one walks in on the man in tweed. Is
the enigmatic smile simply a reaction to a
familiar face, or is its owner thinking about
the lumpy fete by Brueghel to the right rear?
He greets the student by his first name (always
grounds for being wary) and takes the pipe
from his mouth.
"Say, we haven't had you over for dinner
yet, have we?"
As the senior anticipates his last supper, he
tries to remember what was said at the last
Meeting, hurriedly rehearses old chem formu-
lae, and cooks up a defense for his tran.script.
Suddenly he discovers that he is unclear about
the Dean's last Collection announcement : Was
it Friday classes moved to 10 a.m. on June 2,
or ten classes moved to the second Friday in
June?
A practical guide at registration time, a comfort

script, chang'es another course.
For a man with a basement office, Walter Baker
evinces a happy countenance. Facing problems of
expansion, this Vice-Pi-esident in Charge of Develop-
ment is a vital administration figure.

NATURAL SCIENCES
ASTRONOMY
The long-striding figure pacing the Roberts
Hall platform, talking about the International
Geophysical Year, and now and then giving his
trousers a tug is but one aspect of Louis Green.
There is also the well-organized lecturer in
beginning astronomy and the scholar who
translated Galileo from Latin in front of his
"History and Philosophy of Science" class.
There is the mathematician extraordinary who
initiated fugitives from Sharpiess into the mys-
tic realms of higher physics. And even the least
scientific student will remember Dr. Green's
explaining why one can see satellites only at
sunrise and sunset.
Louis Green excitedly reports a sighting of the Rocket
Society's first manned satellite.
BIOLOGY
Ariel Loewy is the classic example of the
absent-minded professor: devotion to biology
overrides all other considerations. Despite this
singularity (or perhaps because of it), Mr.
Loewy's contributions to Haverford are size-
able. He dynamically heads the bio department ;
he puts content (if not organization) into his
lectures; and he conducts research on cell archi-
tecture. In his non-academic time he contrib-
utes color to the campus scene by spirited races
with passing automobiles — on a bicycle !

and
as a white-coated figure hurrying through
Sharpiess from his second floor office to his
third floor lab, at the same time explaining to
a student some subtlety of the Krebs cycle. In
addition to reluctant instruction of pre-meds in
biochemistry, Mr. Santer conducts research on
his own private strain of Thiobacilli.
Irving Finger is well known for the interest
he shows in his students, whether senior foot-
ball-technicians or freshman zoologists. ('"At
least he shows up at the beginning and end
of every lab.") The Biologist of the Youthful
Countenance is always consulted on interpreta-
tions of data in order to obtain the most pessi-
mistic view. Fleeing the boiling cabbage of his
lab, he fills his tiny apartment with the latest
stereo and hi-fi.
The "better half" (traditional) of the Green
science team is Elizabeth Green. Although di-
rect student contact is limited by her non-
teaching position, Mrs. Green's cj-tology re-
search makes her a valuable member of the
department. She has the additional distinction
of being good company for post-lab tea.
This year's botany instructor, Maimon
Xasatir, journeyed from Penn's asphalt jungle
to Haverford's brown tundra on Mondays and
Fridays. A typical lecture began, "Today we
will cover plant evolution from the algae to the
orchid. Fill in the details from your text." A
sincere, "sophisticated" biologist, Mr. Nasatir
was handicapped by student apathy and lack
of time.
CHEMISTRY
liussell Williams has the abiiitj- to make
people step lively, whether he is dressed in a
flashy flannel shirt and cool khakis, calling a
square dance, or in a well-ventilated lab apron
and bow tie, calling buddinp chemists to task.
Since arriving from Notre Dame, the friendly
bespectacled chemistry head has made exten-
sive changes in the department's curriculum —
all intended to bring woe to pre-med students.
Besides teaching introductory and physical
chemistry courses, Williams divides his time
between working on an Atomic Energy Com-
mission research project and controlling little
boys who charge down the halls armed with
pop-guns.
Three days a week, when the Dean is not in
his office putting .some unfortunate .student on
cut probation, he picks his way down to the
chem building to conduct a class in physical
chemistry. A recognized authority in the field
of pre-medical education, William Cadbury is
also rated high in his organization of course
material. Moreover, he excels in his ability to
utilize the weightless-frictionless piston for his
own devious purposes.
Robert Walter is one of the most feared men
on campus I His .students are still trying to
determine whether organic chemistry is just
plain difficult, whether Mr. Walter is unusually
exacting, or whether as a loyal Swarthmore
alumnus he practices pre- (and po.st-) game
activities. He is known for his brave attempts
to utilize vacations for skiing trips. However,
his addiction to hard work is attested to by his
habit of emerging from the building behind
the sundial long after the sundial has ceased
to function for the day.
Colin MacKay, a versatile, well-liked nuclear
chemist, has had the distinction of teaching
nearly every non-organic cour.se in the depart-
ment. Never too busy to offer assistance to a
bewildered .student, his friendliness and inter-
est are evidenced by the respect his students
show him. When asked an interesting off'-track
question during a lecture, ^Ir. MacKay usually
places his chalk-covered hands on his wrinkled

brow and, after due consideration, answers, "I
don't know" — a reply typical of the frank-
ness of this modest man.
As any organic student will testify, the mild
manner of Harmon Dunathan conceals an un-
canny ability to give "rough" exams. Some of
the senior chem majors have yet to recover
fi'om last year's second semester final. Inter-
ested in cyclic hydrocarbons, Mr. Dunathan
was playing with rings long before hula-hoops
came into vogue and is an e.xpert at manipula-
tion of toy models of organic compounds. Bor-
rowing from the domestic traits of his spouse
(one of the most attractive of faculty wives),
he is skilled at giving kindly advice to frus-
trated cooks in the organic kitchen.

ENGINEERING
At the bottom of Fort Hilles, situated on the
south end of campus, we meet the affable and
talented Norman Wilson. While keeping the
machine shop equipment from decadence and
unworthy hands, "Norm" also maintains a fine
sense of humor and well-cared-for Cadillac. His
has been a varied life, going from arti.st to
radio operator to ■ machinist to teacher, and
lately to College photographer.
At the top of the medieval staircase, the
Fort's cold atmosphere is broken by the warm
greeting and friendly smile of Theodore Het-
zel. Patience and charity characterize the per-
sonality of this family man and good Samari-
tan. Mr. Hetzel can speak with equal authority
MATHEMATICS
Cletus Oakley is one of Haverford's most
colorful faculty members. When not teaching
math, he performs in brush-clearing expedi-
tions on Campus Day or fondly reminisces
about the good ol' days in Te.xas. Mr. Oakley
has also been known to give half a lecture in
the last five minutes of class and then leave his
stunned students through the East Math Room
window. His pet project is po.sting obtuse math
problems on the bulletin board (accompanied
by promises of huge prizes) to divert diligent
students from their regular assignments.
Cluttering up bow-tied Cletus Oakley's office are
Bob Wisner, Dave Harrison, and a tea kettle.
Although Robert Wisner's freshman classes
liave a high mortality rate, upperclassmen seem
to build up an amazing immunity to his unique
teaching methods: irregular class meetings are
a hard and fast rule; ten problems one night
and none the next is normal ; and proofs flow
from his chalk so easily that the student blinks
and exclaims, "Why didn't I think of that!"
Chances are that if he did, Wisner would find
a mistake in it. Although this big wheel on the
Academic Standing Committee deplores bon-
fires, pep rallies, and other collegiate "foolish-
ness," it is rumored that he stole into Philadel-
phia one night just to hear Tom Lehrer.
David Harrison arrived on campus with his
rain-hat full of gamma and lambda functions.
Alternately confusing and enlightening his stu-
dents, he followed sermons on the necessity for
rigor with speeches on the merits of intuition.
A.lmost any hour of the day he can be found
in his Hilles retreat amid piles of books, prov-
ing the nearly unprovable and dreaming up
"easy" tests. Yet Mr. Harrison is quite versa-
tile : he can balance an arbitrarily small daugh-
ter on one arm and write out an unbounded
sequence of proofs with the other. Only one
problem remains unsolved : Why is he leaving
Haverstraw — the mathematician's paradise?

vacuum systems, as a result of his many sum-
mers of social work and winters of professional
teaching and practice.
Stashed midway between these opposite
areas of Hilles is the office of Clayton Holmes.
Hours: 7:00 A.M. to 4:00 P.M. (one hour for

is reached in New Hampshire rural areas, there
is adaptability to industry and cal)inetmaking.
PHYSICS
Whack ! A piece of chalk flies across the
room, and another physics student is introduced
to the mysteries of parabolic motion. The
source of the deadly projectile is Aaron Lemon-
ick, ex-Army sergeant turned physicist. This
demonstration is part of the daily routine of
the depai'tment's most lucid, impassioned lec-
turer. The legibility of Dr. Lemonick's hand-
writing is inversely proportional to his enthusi-
asm, as evidenced by the hieroglyphics on the
blackboard when Maxwell's equations are dis-
cussed. This enthusiasm is quite infectious, and
his students have carried aw^ay their due share.
In the basement of Sharpless resides T. A.
Benham, :ui electronics expert and frustrated
debater. Using a perfectly fiendish Socratic
method, he reduces carefully-worked-out prob-
lem solutions to a shambles with frightening
ease. In the evenings he and Ann conduct a
perpetual open house, where the faithful may
procrastinate over a cup of tea. Generally the
topics range from antisymmetrized Hermitian
operators to the relative merits of Shakespeare
and Mickey Spillane. It has been a pleasure to
know T. A. as both teacher and per.sonality, in-
cluding his touch of Satan incarnate.

enthusiastic lectures with pleasure and her

— witness the delicious cake she brought to
class the day before one Thanksgiving and the
succulent ham cooked for a physics department
picnic. Also unforgettable is her .seeming in-
ability to do arithmetic silently and in any
language other than Russian.
HUMANITIES
BIB. LIT.
Perched on a hipfh stool behind the lecture
desk, John Flight attempts to get his class
underway. It is a while before the quiet voice
pierces the rumbling of chairs and the crum-
pling of papers: "Ramey? Ramey? Oh, I
thought you sat in the next row." Before the
weary eyes of his students and their wearier
minds, he lays bare passages of the Holij Bible.
Dry and subtle humor in the Dead Sea scrolls seems
to intrigue scholars John Flight and Bob Horn.
Quotation upon quotation lies within easy reach
of his memory. "This point can be further illus-
trated by Genesis 14:2, which you will remem-
ber says . . ." But who else does remember so
well? Comparative Religion class ends with a
note that "modern man may not be so far ahead
of the primitive as he sometimes thinks."
After parking his ever-faithful Saab and
ascending to the Museum, congenial Robert
Horn assumes his position at the head of the
seminar table. Pulling his texts from his brief
case (a Hebrew Old Testament, a Greek Neiv
Testament, and a German source book), he be-
gins discussion with a question that bewilders
the three seniors for the next two hours. He
increases their suffering by diagramming their
heretical ideas on the board and then intro-
ducing new factors that shatter their argu-
ments before their eyes. Yet, as his victims
stagger out, they can't help feeling deep ad-
miration for this young scholar and the vibrant
insights which he has salvaged from their
confusion.

Head of Haverford's largest department,
Ralph Sargent is a recognized scholar in fields
ranging from the Elizabethans to James Joyce.
With a compelling smile and contagious en-
thusiasm, he reveals subtleties of off-color ma-
terial as easily as he offers intellectual justifica-
tion for symbols and ideas. This cheery scholar,
articulate in all subjects from the quality of
physics books to interesting sidelights on the
maids, infuses the shyest students with literary
confidence.
John Ashmead? No, I wouldn't bother him.
He's hard to talk to — too many proper names.
What's he like? Sort of a large-noodled Mal-
volio, cross-gartered in cross-references. He
psychoanalyzes freshmen in class, strangles
people who mark up library tomes, and button-
holes J. Lester for more books. Seeing things
in patterns, he's divided the English depart-
Eighfeen
ment into two Ki"oups: Ashmeads and mutton-
heads. But after all, he's a scholar.
Married in soul to thirty thousand at least,
Robert Kutnuin is a lover of the gentler sensual
gratifications. He loves to tell people the truth
about themselves and is loved in turn by every-
one, except those who can't believe that anyone
can be so friendly. Bob borrows the wit of great
writers, but shows a bit of his own as well :
"Out of the mouths of babes,"' quoth he, "oft
comes half -digested Cream of Wheat."
At a large table in Chase sits John Lester, a
large and gentle man (Collection orations not-
withstanding). As on the soccer field, his
energy abounds, while his imagination unravels
the mysteries of Dickens' prose. With compli-
cated diagrams, he shows how Wordsworth
pas.sed the ball to Keats. But then his thoughts
fly to the Library where his justice is inflexible
and his swiftness terrifying. He seriously
doui)ts that Percy Bysshe Shelley ever kept a
book out overdue.
Here, there, and everywhere appears that
bundle of wit and energy, Frank Quinn. For
those who catch Mr. Quinn at the corner of
Founders before he darts home to Merion for
tea, he is the essence of reality and mysticism.
The never - to - be - forgotten moments when
Quinn takes poetry and makes it simmer with
intensity and realism or subtly leads a founder-
ing discussion to the light — these are the
corner-stones of his teaching effectiveness.
Any freshman in Mrs. Frank Quinn's English
11-12 section must live by the Boy Scout motto
— "Be Prepared." Preparation includes ear-
muffs to with.stand the chilling blasts from
gaping classrooms windows, as well as a thor-
ough knowledge of the assigned reading. Mrs.
Quinn's English pronunciation makes Shakes-

pearean characters come alive; but more astute
freshmen have remarked that her readings do
little for Jim's speeches in Huck Finn.
Ted Rose is often seen striding about the
campus wearing an expression both kindly and
preoccupied. The image is not misleading: he
approaches literature with appreciation as well
as genuine and thorough scholarshiiD (so thor-
ough that he sometimes ends his introductory
remarks only reluctantly after half an hour of
class). Helpfully reading meaning into the
most inane comments, Mr. Ro.se evinces a sin-
cere interest in his students.

means failure. Satterthwaite's tete-a-tetes with
students and perceptive analysis of Spencer
both play a role in forming the "molded man."
According to Paul Sheats, one characteristic
of a tragic hero is a fall from a high place. It
might be said that Sheats himself has under-
gone such a fall. After a distinguished career
at Harvard and Oxford, he now holds the un-
enviable position of teaching elementary Eng-
lish courses at Haverford. Resigned to his
plight, the warm and wide-eyed Mr. Sheats
mountain-climbs, folk-sings, and awaits his
crack at "more advanced" students.

Bow-tied Larry Wylie regales colleagues Shaw, Smith,
and Gutwirth with tales of Parisian night life.
FRENCH
A reviewer spoke of Laurence Wylie's Village
in the VaHcluse as "sociology without pain"
and cited his warm, personal, and relaxed style
as one of the most strikiner assets of this none-
theless serious and thorough study. Like author,
like book! His humor and warmth make Mr.
Wylie one of the most accessible members of
the Faculty, though behind an enjoyably re-
laxed manner he hides an unexpected wit and
rigorous mind. His personality and his recent
literary activities have won for him and for
Haverford a wide-reaching reputation of supe-
rior achievement.
Marcel Gutwirth, a serious, intimidating
scholar, ranges from the satanic to the sublime.
He does not refuse to mix the social and the
intellectual, believing that both realms of ac-
tivity have implicit rules of conduct which are
not mutually exclusive. If Mr. Gutwirth needed
but one I'eason for demanding high-grade per-
formance from his students, it might be that
every lecture, every discussion reveals his con-
scious effort to give of himself, his knowledge,
and his insight. With scathing criticism tem-
pered by infectious enthusiasm, Mr. Gutwirth
may have opponents, but he has no critics. He
is an original thinker with intellectual finesse,
and such men are invaluable to Haverford.
If ever there was a theory whereby positive
results follow negative presentation, Michael
Shaw has mastered it. A book, a student, or an
idea of which he approves is hard to find. Yet,
from his flow of ")wn" and "nein" there
emerges a fine, subtle wit and a sharp, critical
spirit whose judgments are never unfounded.
In class Mr. Shaw wages a personal fight for
clear analysis, reading, and expression. Dou-
bling as a Humanities professor, he has no
sympathy for those who need philosophical
treatises to explain Daisy Miller's innocence.
While Mr. Wylie was abed first semester with
infectious hepatitis, the French department en-
listed the aid of Mrs. Michael Shaw (wife of the
above) . Enthusiastically attacking the proverbs
of such literary figures as Rousseau and La
Rochefoucauld, which abound in French 11,
she proved herself an imaginative student and
teacher, often digressing into discussions of the
subtleties of French philosophy, the superiority
of Europeans, and the indolence of Haverford
French students.
Another first-semester replacement for Mr.
W.ylie, Rene Daudin instructed naive freshmen
and experienced sophomores in the intricacies
of Parisian night life. Rumored to be a descend-
ant of one of Henry IV's illegitimate sons, he
brought warmth, personality, and a vast knowl-
edge of the French people into his teaching. He
had only to grin over his lunettes and say,
"... a very interesting answer. Monsieur, but
it has nothing to do with the cjuestion," to make
a student feel completely at ease.
French House was founded with the idea of providing
students a chance to live comfortably and speak French.
They live comfortably.

GERMAN
Offering students a taste of German tradi-
tion, as well as a knowledKe of German litera-
ture, Harry Pfuiid, '22, makes his courses more
than a series of lectures and discussions. As he
reads from LessiuK or Goethe's plays or the
Middle Hi^h German of the Nibelungenlied,
Dr. Pfund effervesces the true spirit of the
"old countrj'." Projects with the genial head of
the department are consequently noted for
German beer and apfehaft.
John Cary, '45, is an uncompromising perfec-
tionist when it comes to precise translations of
German passages. Yet he maintains a close

an ever-ready source of assistance to those un-
fortunate individuals caught up in the com-
plex cobweb of German grammar. His presence
is also felt in a number of College activities,
whether it be his participation in campus
drives or his attendance at Meeting and soccer
games.
Professor Emeritus John Kelly came out of
retirement last fall to teach a course in ele-
mentary German. Precisely at 9:01 each class
day, Herr Kelly appeared on Founders porch
and commenced his way to the West Math room.
"Kommcn Sie nach meinem Hause," he often
requested his students, who could only marvel
at the versatility of this humble man, leading
them in song around his piano.
Tuesday night ! Time for Modern German
Literature with Joachim Maass. Black-suited
and precise, Mr. Maass would read melodically
and imbibe some sort of Zaubertvank. "What
is beauty?" he would ask. "What is the literary
work of art?" Attempting to discover the an-
swers, the class read Mann, Kafka, and Kilke.
Each week, out came the attache case, the book
of lecture notes, and the illuminating com-
ments mit Witz und Aumiit vorgctragen.
Spending only one year at Haverford, Man-
fred Heydebreck showed enough detachment
to smile o^ us and enough humanity to smile
ivifli us. Besides taking English and teaching
German, he endured innumerable dinner-meet-
ings with local service clubs. What such experi-
ences proved, beyond the superb powers of
Manfred's digestive system, will never be
known within our borders. Tact prevails.
George Kennedy, newly-arrived Clas.sicist, frowns as

An intense James Fowle seems surpiised to find mani-
festations of artistic expression in cold Hilles.
Howard Comfort displays a curious artifact discovered
by him in the dark Sharpless basement.
HISTORY OF ART
LATIN
A newly-arrived emigrant from Harvard,
James Fowle has eagerly accepted Haverford's
challenge of intimate student-faculty relations
and informal discussions. He approaches his
subject with infectious enthusiasm, adding
youth and vigour to the Faculty, and he in.stills
in his students a heightened perception and
appreciation of works of art. Despite his laissez
faire policy toward correcting papers, Mr.
Fowle's genuine interest in the scholastic ef-
forts of his students makes their analyses of
whatever Egyptian figure is glowing on the
screen seem profound beyond words.
An expert in many fields, Howard Comfort,
'24, specializes in Catullus and pottery. He
spends his free time writing, coaching cricket
(with unbelievable success), and flying about
the world to preside at the meetings of learned
societies. Assuming as he does that everyone
will "have the stuff cold," he seldom checks up
on assignments and feels each grammatical
massacre as a personal disappointment. No one
in Latin 15 will forget his lecture on the
Plautine influence in Sgt. Bilko, for such
methods are part of his success in making a
"dead" language come alive.
Charles Ludington and Alfred Swan iiolish their rendi-
tion of an ancient Oriental melody — Chopsticks.
MUSIC
Energetically teaching music a la grancle
facon, Alfred Swan is able to elicit creativity
from the chaotic turbulence of most musical
souls. "A Program of Student Musical Compo-
sitions" was actually a highlight of this year's
Collection programs, thanks to Mr. Swan's dili-
gent supervision of the compositions and his
whimsical, yet penetrating, program comments.
Charles Ludinprton was Amherst's loss and
Haverford's gain. Substituting for Dr. Reese,
Mr. Ludington ably taught, directed, or be-
friended everyone he met. He is most memor-
able for admonishing the Glee Club's slow sing-
ing: although the men loved to linger over
each note he conducted, he loved each one so
well that he couldn't wait for the next.
PHILOSOPHY
Prosidiiifr over the phil depurlment, Duuglas
Steere defends an essentially non-rational — or
should we say supra-rational — position ajrainst
I.B.M. Parker; he is obviously a man to be
reckoned with on intellectual Ki'ounds. His true
gift, though, is his ability to slip away from the
troubles of philosophy to an ephemeral level
where contradiction vanishes, where life meets
its source, and where "things begin to happen."
There are the cynics who say the new level is
underground, in Plato's cave. There are others
who observe the sense of delight obvious in all
that he does and suspect that the new level has
something to do with Jeremiah's tree.
A latter-day Socrates, Frank Parker believes
that the unexamined life is not worth living.
Also, the unexamined thought is not worth giv-
ing in his classes. Master of the gentle but
deadly riposte, he is lucidity personified ; one
can almo.st hear the mental wheels turning
whenever he lectures. Nor do the wheels grind
slowly, though they grind exceedingly fine.
Said an honors graduate from Sharple.ss: "Mr.
Parker was at my oral. He asked if the psy-
chologist made value judgments. I said no . . .
and found out in five minutes that the answer
was yes." Thus does wisdom begin.
Paul Desjardins has come this year to be

somewhere in the circle of Plato's World-Soul.
In class his enthusia.sm often blurs the issue
at hand, and discussion sometimes becomes a
good game of Blind Man's Bluff. But the
Socratic method is a welcome innovation in the
department, and as he settles down to Haver-
ford life, we know that lines of meaningful
communication will open. After all, il faiit cul-
tiver notre Desjardins.

de Graaft' leads a Russian discussion.
RUSSIAN
Frances de Graaff is the human dynamo who
generates knowledge of the one Slavic language
offered in these parts. Teaching phrases for
all occasions, she presents her subject with both
dispatch and care, and makes a point of intro-
ducing her students to the lighter sides of
the language as well as the more serious. Multi-
lingual Miss de Graaff is the owner of a
polylingual dog named Tony. This intelligent
beast listens to her elementary and secondary
classes with the bored yawn of an old pro.
Ruth Pearce arrived on the scene last Sep-
tember to help the beleaguered Miss de Graaff
cope with the quadrupled enrollment in Ele-
mentary Russiari. She brings to the subject a
high regard for accuracy and a fanatical deter-
mination to have everyone speak with an im-
peccable Moscow accent. Although she admon-
ishes those stumbling on vowel mutations, con-
jugations, aspects, and declensions to "memor-
ize like parrots," an ochvn kIio)osIio greets the
performance of the knowledgeable.
A smiling Ruth Pearce and a dubious Frances de
Graaff prepare a class for their budding diplomats.
SPANISH
There are many clues to the personality of
Sefior Manuel Jose Asensio: his physiology
(short, stocky, dynamic) ; his philosophy (con-
fident optimism coupled with sympathetic
understanding) ; and, most significantly, the
personal devotion he inspires in all who come
to know him. The atmosphere of la Casa (pro-
saically, Williams House) is a case in point —
only el Senor (and la Sefwra) could make that
cold grey Quaker pile of stone reflect the rich
warmth of a Spanish atmosphere. No one who
has studied literature ivith him can forget the
depth of his insights or the sound scholarship
that documents them. On sabbatical leave for
the past semester, he will return next fall,
ready to give several more courses than he's
paid to teach.
When Senor Asensio's second-semester re-
placement failed to arrive, a frantic plea to
B.M.C. produced Seiior Joaquin Gonzalez-
Muela, a pleasant, easy-going scholar in modern
Spanish poetry. His wide teaching experience
adds color to his courses, and class discus-
sions range from College problems to the
Cuban Revolution.
Joining the Haverford faculty in February,
Senor Casiano Fernandez (another Asensio
substitute) announced, "We do not learn things
about the language. We learn the language it-
self." A strong believer in the conversational
method of teaching, he furnishes delightful
digressions into all aspects of Spanish and
Latin American culture.
Manuel Asensio, benevolent despot of Spanish house,
radiates a regal warmth throughout his tiny realm.
SOCIAL SCIENCES
Will Lyons resorts to a quality control chart to hold
attention on a late Friday afternoon.
ECONOMICS
The Executive in the ec department is chair-
man Howard Teaf, who "guides" his future
Adam Smiths with an iron hand. When the
finger points at you, watch out ! You had better
be exactly right, if you want to be heard. A
stickler for precision, Mr. Teaf has been known
to spend an entire class period looking for a
single word — and we sometimes suspect that
he has it hidden in his long sleeves near the
floor. His weekly disai^pearances are accounted
for by his varied off-campus activities as a
C.P.A., labor arbitrator, and advisor to the
state insurance program. And his vigorous tax-
ation of dormant intellectual resources has had
multiplier effects on student development.
Mild-mannered, even-tempered Ho Hunter,
'43, demonstrates his marginal propensity for
statistics in his latest book, Soviet Transporta-
tion Policy. (Approximately one-third of the
book is charts and graphs. ) Students knew well
his love for figures even before the book was
published. His favorite diversion while travel-
ling between Woodside Cottage and Whitall,
third floor, is attempting to break his own speed
record in climbing and descending stairs. Once

Will Lyons came to Haverford in the fall
of '57, having sacrificed a lucrative Wall Street
career to join the ranks of long-suffering col-
lege professors. Further armed with a hard-
earned M.I.T. education and experience on the
War Production Board, he seems to us novices
in the world of practical affairs to be the pos-
sessor of an unlimited number of acquaintances
and hot tips on the market. This background
enables Will to conduct lively classes, liberally
spiced with original, thought-provoking con-
cepts — all without notes. A sympathetic lis-
tener to every student's problems, he makes a
fine "coffee companion." With the.se virtues and
a love for stocks ending in "0-I-D," Will lends a
bit of color to the ec department.

HISTORY
Thomas Drake, together with Wallace Mac-
Caffrey, gives the history department one of
the most effective one-two punches in the Col-
lege. If either of these remarkable men were
to leave, the number of history majors would
be alarmingly reduced. With a peculiar obses-
sion for books, historians, and details, Dr.
Drake covers in his American history classes
anything from a discussion of steamboat navi-
gation on the Arkansas River to research on
the first name of the editor of the Atlantic
Monthly in 1901. His rationale for this pro-
cedure is his belief that a college course in
American history should be "advanced," al-
though certain neophyte historians have ac-
cused him of neglecting the basic issues.
To his students, Mr. MacCaffrey appears as
both Clio and Nemesis incarnate. His class
procedure follows three steps: (1) Having for-
gotten a pencil, he borrows a student's to take
the I'oll. (2) He asks innocuously, "Well, what
did you read for today?" (3) The fur (of the
students) flies. Skillfully battering and parry-
ing his class with probing questions, Mr. Mac-
Caffrey blithely piles on interminable, volumi-
nous lists of "suggested reading." Although .stu-
dents may dread his insatiable expectations,
they will remember him as a teacher who
encouraged thinking as much as knowing.
John Coddington's pocket watch, head full
of anecdotes, affirmative tone, and well-chosen
vocabulary demand one's attention. Mr. Cod-
dington has something valuable to say on any
subject and is never too busy to converse with
a student. With precise diction and mellifluous
tone, he invariably asks visitors, "Why don't
you sit down? . . . you look so temporary."
Dusty "original source material" is perused by his-
torians MacCaffrey, Drake, and Coddington.
"Red" Somers points out to Gerald Freund and Arnold
Rog-ow that Einstein was a political scientist.
POLITICAL SCIENCE
Herman Somers skillfully applies his child-
hood dramatic training in clarifying the vari-
ous political problems raised in class. His
caustic and concise thrusts at the political
Leviathan sometimes jolt idealistic freshmen,
but in reality conceal a warm and friendly per-
sonality. Head of the poll sci department,
Somers is also master of Scull House (once a
fearsome position). But since the "Great Re-
form of '58," his sole problems are maintaining
the excellence of his department and keeping
up with the social security laws, not to mention
the current political ferment.
Gerald Freund brings to the poli sci depart-
ment a solid background encompassing the
entire political spectrum : principles learned
from Red Somers, empirical knowledge ac-
quired as president of the Students' Associa-
tion, and e.xperience gained assisting George
F. Kennan. Freund's approach attests to a
shrewdly analytical mind, which is quick to see
fallacies bandied about by political amateurs
as well as professionals who should know
better. His presentation takes on undertones of
ecstasy when he brings forth the Golden Key in
all political triumphs : "Power, gentlemen !"
Arnold Rogow, mighty monotone of the de-
partment, is reputed to have the great ambition
to apply the game theory of political science to
gunning creatures of the wild. Excluded from
the latter category, his students are the target
only of his marks. Although his delivery
arouses few to ecstasy, Mr. Rogow possesses an
excellent command of analytical tools for dis-
secting any issue at hand. So long as his chain
of cigarettes lasts, the Rogue is nonpareil.
PSYCHOLOGY
Gifted with a iHMTeptive mind that neatly
Kleans the obscnre from the intellectually pre-
cise, Douglas Heath demands from each stu-
dent this same qualily of rigorous thinkinK-
"Doug," as he prefers to be called by psychology
majors, applies his extensive knowledge in pre-
senting basic materials in a stimulating and
creative manner. To him, psychology is more
than a mere academic discipline. It is a per-
sonal force which determines his teaching tech-
nique, as well as his relationships with his
students. Consequently, Mr. Heath under-
stands the Haverford man better than the
latter understands himself. The youthful-look-
Ira Keiil liukls a bL-liiiul-ihawn-shades pot-latch in his
office with John Smith and Edward Harper.
SOCIOLOGY
Doug- Heath, Al Pepitono, and Jeiry Wodinsky get
together to discuss the rising price of white rats.
ing dynamo with the piercing eyes and boyish
grin elicits deservedly from his students,
"brilliant but a nice guy."
Jerry Wodinsky is the newe.st addition to
Haverford's ever-expanding p.sychology depart-
ment. As he peers out at the College scene
through his dark-rimmed glasses, he is involved
in the learning process that he himself teaches.
Presenting his students with intelligent lec-
tures, he relates numerous anecdotes about the
myriad of experiments he has performed. Sen-
sitive freshmen are shocked and dismayed by
his accounts of pigeons exhausted by prolonged
pecking and desperate rats struggling to master
moist mazes. But his well-pre.-^ented disserta-
tions on the values of psychology restore their
faith in him and the subject he teaches.
Ira Reid, the tall social theorist who heads
the sociology department, sidles into .seminar
meetings with an armful of books and a pile of
"S" or "U" papers. As he eloquently moderates
immoderate discussions, disdainful sneers fre-
quent his countenance, interspersed with an oc-
casional smile and "I'm so sorry, but . . ." Lis-
tening to his excellent Collection introduction
of friend Ralph Bunche, students discovered
why Ira Reid ranks high among Haverford's
favorite professors and how he could make
even Soc. Sci. 11-12 seem interesting.
Teaching Haverfordians both French and
.':;ociology, John Smith prefers the latter '"disci-
pline." When he does teach French, he makes
it French a la Wylie, o?-, "patterns of culture" in
the Vaucluse. A master at employing conjunc-
tions to further his thought processes in lec-
tures, Mr. Smith nonetheless conveys to his
students the methods of sociological inquiry.
Nearly as tall as his boss. Smith is easily
recognizable as he strides in Gulliver fashion
about the campus: tw^eed suit, mustache, brief
case, and pipe.
Edward Harper is the backbone of the Bryn
Mawr-Haverford anthropology department. He
imparts knowledge to his students in a quiet
and una.ssuming manner, reaching the heights
of his teaching prowess in informal seminars.
Students usually find a shoeless Harper squat-
ting cross-legged on the floor of his home, with
a cup of coff'ee in one hand and a rare first
edition from his extensive library in the other.
One explanation of Harper's passion for floor-
sitting might be his interest in village life in
northern Indi-i.

PHYSICAL EDUCATION
Roy Randall, Director of Athletics, always
seems to have a few well-chosen words at his
command (whether the occasion be a half-time
pep-talk during a crucial football game or the
introduction of a long-winded speaker at the
fall sports banquet). Haverford football for-
tunes have soared under Roy's tutelage, and
recent records of the baseball team have also
been noteworthy.
Bill Docherty, the other half of Haverford's
third two-professor department, personally
bridges the gap between physical education and
the humanities in his capacity as father-coun-
selor to the freshmen. In addition, he is chief
mentor of the golf team, line coach of the foot-
ball team, and the most feared referee in the
Intramural Basketball League.
Easy-going Ernie Prudente never seems to be
fazed by the unpredictability of his tempera-
mental cagers or the bizarre weight-lifting
techniques of his "body-building" class. As
end coach on the football team, Ernie is a pro-
ponent of the "show 'em in the flesh" school;
and his enthusiasm makes even the "Surplus"
Twcnfy-cight
team in the Softball League feel professional.
Richard Morsch, H. E. (Healer Extraordi-
nary), is Haverford's answer to the ravages
of athletic battles. Using ultra-sound machines
and good old adhesive tape, Dick labors inces-
santly to keep the fencing team loose and the
football team tight. Reputed to have a phenome-
nal memory for lock combinations, Dick prob-
ably remembers everything that was ever put
into the bottomless "lucky bag."
Other members of the athletic stafl" had vary-
ing degrees of success during the year. While
coach Jimmy Mills led the varsity soccer team
to a good season, Jack Lester's J. V. hooters and
Doc Harter's junior griddei'S found the going
rough. Under the guidance of new coach Bill
Breuninger, both the cross country and track
teams had successful records. Similarly Henri
Gordon's fencers and Harter's wrestlers
achieved success in Middle Atlantic league
competition. In the spring. Norm Bramall be-
gan his "umpteenth" year as tennis coach, and
Howard Comfort came out of retirement to
rejuvenate the cricketers.

PHILIPS VISITORS
ALBERT W. TUCKER
As a I'esLilt of a generous bequest from the late William
Pyle Philips, the College community is invaded annually by a
host of "distinguished scientists and statesmen" whose visits
"may last anywhere from a few hours to a full academic year."
Potential visitors are nominated by the Faculty and screened
by a committee headed by Professor Paissell Williams.
Visiting statesmen this year were United Nations Under-
secretary for Public Information Ahmed Bokhari and United
States Senator Joseph Clark. Sociologists heard Julian Pitt-
Rivers speak about his major field — the gypsie.s — and Hadley
Cantril, Dorwin Cartwright, and Theodore Newcomb ex-
liounded on the realm of psychology.
An unusual and interesting series entitled "The Physical
Universe" featured William Fowler, Richard Feynman, Martin
Schwarzschild, and Harold Urey. As part of a program on
"Advances in Cell Structure and Function," Ariel Loewy
played host to a vast number of biologists including Alan
Hodge, George Palade, Keith Porter, and Sanford Palay.
Princeton's mathematician Albert Tucker lectured weekly on
game theory; astronomy enthusiasts listened starry-eyed to
Dirk Brouwer and Russian astronomer Alia Masevitch; and
Henry Taube led a group of eager chem majors in some
spirited discussions on complex ions.

ACTIVITIES.
"Activities" — bane of the Academic Stand-
ing Committee, pride of the Foundei's Club,
refuge of the restless student mind, and a
catchall term encompassing everything from
the pious Student Christian Movement to that
band of swashbuckling individuals calling
themselves the Mountaineers. Between these
extremes one can find such varied groups as the
now defunct Rocket Society, the Drama Club,
and two (count 'em, two) Glee Clubs. But ac-
tivities are of gi*eater significance than mere
outlets for excess energy. They furnish a chance
for artistic expression and the opportunity to
test in real situations the seemingly vague ideas
found in books. Who could question the value
of a Bach Magnificat spiritedly performed or
even a student yearbook sincerely, if somewhat
awkwardly, composed?
'.loin the Glee Club and see the world through foggy bus windows.
Thirty-unc
students' Council members seem extremely confused
by the intricacies of the preferential voting system.
STUDENTS' COUNCIL
This year's Students' Council, under the dy-
namic leadership of Jim Katowitz, successfully
tackled a number of problems traditionally
handed down by past regimes. Having- barely
made its way through a maze of twisted organ
pipes and tire tracks, the Council was forced to
recognize that relations with Whitall had sunk
to a new low.
Undaunted, the Council quickly negotiated
for a summit conference. After months of
diplomatic maneuvering and intrigue, a balance
of power was struck in the form of a new
Studctit Affairs Charter. The primary purpose
for this change was the clarification of relation-
ships among Administration, Students' Council,
and Faculty. Its success was soon established by
the initiation of a new system of handling the
Council's finances.
Another major achievement of this year's
Council was the adoption of a new Students'
Assiiciation Constitution. The groundwork for
this document was laid by a special committee,
ably headed by Bob Miller. The revision was
undertaken to remedy the weaknesses in the
former constitution and to enact certain new
legislation for the improvement of student gov-
ernment at Haverford. In this regard, provision
was made for a closer relationship between the
Council and the student body by means of
periodic dormitory sessions to discuss im-
portant issues and tap student opinion.
In the allocation of funds this year, the Coun-
cil was faced with a very unusual problem —
no money! After a quick takedown, heavy-
weight Katowitz found President Borton quite
anxious to grant the Council an additional
thousand dollars to supplement its income from
the unit fee. Furthermore, to make possible
such activities as a "trip to the Rockies" for the
redoubtable Mountaineers, the Council devised
new schemes for depleting the Capital Ex-
penditures Fund.
All was not merry, however, as the Council
suffered much criticism for its policy (?) on the
Library problem. But coming at election time
as it did, it provided many platform planks for
a dozen political aspirants.
A good year? A bad year? Who knows? It

MEN OF MERIT
Haverford's select group of athletes, the Var-
sity Club, was headed this year by the Unholy
Alliance of Joe Maniana, Don Scarborough, and
Mac Goggin. The club's main project was spon-
.soring the Swarthmore Dance, which (much to
the surprise of the Alliance) left the organiza-
tion solvent. Constitutional difficulties last
spring did not prevent a successful on-campus
picnic; the hope is that there will be a repeat
performance this year.
Scholar.ship and participation in extracur-
ricular activities are the keynotes of the
Founders Club. Under the leadership of under-
graduate secretary Jim Moyes, the club hosted
the freshmen at a reception introducing them
to college extracurricular organizations during
Orientation Week. The club also sponsors cam-
pus visitors. This year's annual dinner guest
was Sigmund Spaeth, '05.
The Haverford Chapter of the Phi Beta
Kappa Society, Zeta of Pennsylvania, estab-
lished in 1898, includes a present living mem-
bership of 570 alumni. Elections by the Chapter
from the junior and senior classes are held
every year a few days before Commencement.
A noteworthy distinction is the award of mem-
bership fifteen years after graduation to an
alumnus, not already elected, who is felt to
have attained the greatest distinction in the
fields of science, literature, or the arts.

GLEE CLUB
This year's Glee Club will most remember
and be remembered for Charles Ludington.
Rapidly becoming one of the most popular and
well-known faculty members on campus, Mr.
Ludington comprised the brains and beat be-
hind Haverford music. Twice a week and then
some, he bludgeoned the heavy and seemingly
immovable minds and voices of some one
Pillows and a guitar — the luggage of the Glee Club
is mute testimony that it is ready for anything.
hundred twenty-five men into an amazing amal-
gum of harmony and diction. Starting with
next to nothing, the bewildered chorister found
Latin and English anthems or stern Vaughan
Williams pieces arising from himself and the
rest of his disciplined mob. Four days before a
concert there may have been utter confusion,
but that strange and contagious fire of Mr.
Ludington's personality persuaded basses and
even tenors to perform amazing vocal feats.
Regimented down to their socks by president
Larry Griffith, the Glee Club performed solo at
Centenary Junior College and Lake Erie Col-
lege for Women. The group combined with
Wheaton and Bryn Mawr to sing major works,
twice formed the male bulwark of the Tri-
College Chorus, and performed a spring concert
on campus. "Join the Glee Club and see the
world through foggy bus windows" became the
chorus' motto, but the socializing more than
made up for the boring rides.
A myriad of works and words were sung and
chanted this year. A major trend was towards
Renaissance music, much of which quickly be-
came very popular, especially with certain vi-
brant basses. Polyphonic works by Palestrina,
UuH'o. Clemens noii Papa, and AlleKi'i were fea-
tured in this vein. The sometimes overly-varied
l)rograms also incorporated Hindemith's
Demon of the Gibbet (a real toHr-de-forcc on
the part of the director, it was equally f rifrhten-
\]\ii t(i audience and singers) ; a spectacular
work for chorus and drum by Samuel Barbei-,
A Stopiratch and a» Ordnance Map; lUixte-
hude's Magnificat and Handel's Funeral An-
them on the Death of Queen Caroline in the
way of major works; and a bare minimum of
Nefrro spirituals, Randall Thompson, and (ler-
man romantic music. A highlight of this year's
repertoire was provided by Professor Alfred
Swan's two beautiful works on Easter themes,
one of which was dedicated to the Club by the
composer.
The big concerts of the year were the
Philadelphia Orchestra concerts in December
(Bach's Magnificat i)i D), the Good Friday con-
cert at the National Cathedral in Washington,
D. C, and the Easter Sunday concert at St.
Thomas' Church in New York City. These rare
musical privileges (for participants and lis-
teners alike) will long remain as highlights in
Haverford's musical annals and are indicative
of the operations extraordinaire of the Griffith
machine, ably supported by management ex-
perts John Macort and John Gresimer. It has
been calculated that this year's Glee Club per-
formed before more than ten thousand lis-
teners. As Griffith puts it, "For amateurs,
that's downright professional !"

ORCHESTRA
The inspired conducting of Charles Luding-
ton and the able leadership of president Bill
Fullard were deciding factors in the success of
the Haverford-Bryn Mawr Orchestra this year.
Augmented by an exceptional number of tal-
ented freshmen, the orchestra was able, for the
first time, to perform virtually without the
assistance of outside players.
In the first orchestral concert at Haverford
since 1955, Mr. Ludington conducted three of
the less famous works of Mozart, Handel, and
Haydn. On this occasion the audience was
given one of its far-too-infrequent opportunities
to hear the new organ.

OCTET
The 1958-59 version of the Octet sang a;
usual at the big dances, entertained as usual at
Alumni gatherings, and did social research of
unusual merit in a Pittsburgh barroom. For
a time Don Knight and Tenney Peck provided
the bass, while Gurdon Brewster and "Job"
Muller sang baritone and Jim Katowitz sang
loudly. Hugh Ogden and Truman BuUard
blended in at second tenor, and John Emlen
blended in at Wisconsin. Larry Maud gave out
the high notes, and Jay Ramey gave out. The
sound will be extremely difficult to duplicate.
FRESHMAN GLEE CLUB
The Admissions Office must have given voice
tests to the Class of '62, for Mr. Ludington
created from this assemblage a creditable sixty-
man Glee Club. The group's enthusiasm was
probably due to its concert schedule (certainly
not to the Student Affairs Committee).
Journeying to the Emma Willard School in
Troy, New York, the Rhinie choristers experi-
enced their most tragic moment : Mr. Luding-
ton gave the downbeat in the rehearsal, but no
sound emanated from the gentlemen. The
amused girls were assured that the men were
merely "a bit overcome by the atmosphere" and
that they actually sang beautifully.
At the Christmas Collection, the freshman
group sang Praetorius' Lo, How a Rose E'er
Blooming and a plainsong hymn. A certain
white-haired, very familiar musician said after
the program, "Brilliant sound !", pocketed his
pitch-pipe, and gambolled off to Munich (we
think). The season was rounded out at the
Roland Park School in Baltimore, where the
men's education was rounded out by their
overnight stays in the girls' homes.

WHRC
WHRC, also known as Radio Free Haver-
ford, has made many innovations this year
which have better enabled it to beam entertain-
ment and enlightenment to the four corners
of the campus. The acquisition of a stereo
Magnetocordette and greater cooperation with
its Bryn Mawr counterpart (a growing trend
among Haverford organizations) were achieve-
ments of the staff in the Union attic.
The Magnetocordette was proudly presented
to the public on Parents' Day, the same day
that WHRC went FM and presented its first
stereophonic broadcast. Sam Tatnall, special
events director, guided the weekly stereo pre-
sentations which began in March. Coverage
also included the 125th Anniversary events,
campaign speeches of Students' Council candi-
dates, and an interview with novelist Pearl
Buck by Browny Speer and Truman Bullard.
Adding a feminine touch, Bryn Mawr's
WBMC figured moi-e centrally in the activities
of Haverford's radio voice this year. The two
stations have inaugurated a limited program-
exchange project, which has increa.sed pro-
gramming quality and interest for both
colleges.
Station manager Pete Arnow directed the
fortunes of Haverford's contribution to broad-
casting. Secretary-business manager Mike Har-
vey secured a varied group of new local ad-
vertisers, and Phil Gerdine and Chuck Read
were kept busy handling the complicated
finances resulting therefrom. The station also
carried several national accounts, a remarkable
feat for small college broadcasting.
Engineers were skillfully trained by Dick
Stowe, while Martin Lehfeldt was absorbed in
the never-ending task of scheduling and re-
scheduling all the station's programs and ad-
vertisements. Geoff' Raymond, in charge of
copy and production, was ever watchful to keep
the programming on a high level, while Norm
Forster was in charge of publicity. The most
l)opular program continued to be Great Music,
emceed by Bob Tannenbaum.
Doing its bit to overcome the isolation in-
herent in a secluded outpo.st of Quakerism,
WHRC became a member of the Intercollegiate
Broadcasting System and served as "big
brother" to the Ursinus College Radio Club,
which intends to go on the air in September.

jockey, makes with smooth talk and mellow music.
Return of Agamemnon in the Oresteia
DRAMA CLUB
To open its 1958-59 season, the Drama Club
combined with Bryn Mawr's Thespians to pre-
sent a complicated production of Shakespeare's
quasi-historical King John. The brothers
Knight (Charles, '58, and Don) portrayed King:
John and Philip the Bastard, respectively, turn-
ing in strong performances with fine sensitivity
to their characters' changes of emotion. Jane
Parry played Constance (one of Shakespeare's
most difficult female roles), while Francisca
Duran-Reynolds portrayed a remarkable little
King Arthur. Additional artistic effect was
provided by the unusual color and symbol used
in the sets and costumes depicting the English
and French courts. The play was received en-
thusiastically on both its historical and moral
levels.
Following the examples of Harvey Phillips,
'58, and Ken Geist, '58, Tim Sheldon presented
in December an original play entitled Tlie
Uninvited. This private effort, a saga of cave-

what frightened Uninvited.
men searching for their identity, was written
along the lines of previous Sheldon Class Night
scripts, but on a much higher level. The pro-
duction was well done and very enjoyable.
Time out from production was taken in the
same month in order to change the ruling
caste. Keith Bradley replaced Dave Morgan as
president ; Al Paskow took over from roommate
John Hayter as secretary; Steve Ramseyer re-
ceived control of productions from Hugh
Ogden ; and Phil Gerdine disconsolately re-
turned the financial records to his own room.
The next item on the Club's agenda was the
Lincoln University Drama Club's production in
February of Bridget Boland's The Prisoner.
Well produced and intelligently acted, the per-
formance was occasioned by last spring's
Haverford-Bryn Mawr production of Comedy
of Errors at Lincoln.
In March the combined drama clubs per-
formed Richmond Lattimore's translation of
Aeschylus' Oresteia. The personal guidance of
Mr. Lattimore, an excellent set by Peter Rock-
well, '58, and fine acting overcame the diffi-
culties of production in this ambitious under-
taking. Charles Knight, making his second
])ost-graduate appearance, played Agamemnon,
while Jinty Myles sang her swan song as Cly-
temnestra. Paul Hodge played the role of
Orestes. Ned Wolfe portrayed Aegisthus, and
Rob Colby was especially good as Cassandra.
The Libation Bearers, the second pai't of this
trilogy, was carted off to the Yale Drama Fes-
tival, scenery and all.
To end their 1958-59 season on a gayer note,
the joint clubs chose Bernard Shaw's Heart-
break House for their May production. Al-
though rather light, this play still presented a
challenge to the actors, besides providing good
entertainment for both college audiences.

Sports Staff Wins

The sports editors have a
thankless job! Dedicated and
loyal, they are alone and friend-
less— save when a chance reader
thinks of them upon finding his
name mentioned in the intra-
mural ping-pong write-up.
Mac Goggin, George Parker,
and Chris Kimmich were this
year's men apart. Upon their
collective shoulders has fallen
the burden of describing sport
in all its guises at Haverford.
The editors have also had to
appease irascible alumni who
have memories of ancient Hav-
erford athletic glories.
So they walk alone, good old
"M.G.," "G.P.," and "C.K.," as
we say around the News Bureau,

The staff: (first row) Brewster, Miller, Blauvelt; (sec-
ond row) Murray, Sheitelman, Ogden, Tubis; (third
row) Lowenthal, Gage, Wright, Colburn, Alexander.
This year's Record seemed to pick up steam
as the months passed by, moving from spas-
modic meetings in the Students' Council Room
in September and October, through long, winter
Saturday afternoons in the Record Room, to
frantic all night sessions in the editor's base-
ment during spring vacation. All of the hard
vi^ork paid off: one month to the day after the
final deadline, the book was finished.
Editor Lowenthal came into office brimming
with vitality and new ideas. During his reign,
the Comptroller's office constructed an office for
the Record in the basement of Leeds. This
structure, a curious cross between a chicken
coop and the catacombs in Whitall, seemed to
collect table tennis balls and underdeveloped
photos more easily than willing workers.
Caught in a frantic race to keep up with the
page-adding tactics of the ambitious editor-in-
chief were John Coulthurst, business manager,
and J. D. Miller, advertising manager. These
dedicated economists wrote tremendously mov-
ing letters to faculty, parents, and alumni for

patronage and subscriptions and badgered local
merchants incessantly for advertising support.
Having succeeded by February in paying for
the 160 odd pages planned, the business staff
suddenly found itself in March with a new goal
— color photography — and set to work again.
Photograi)hy editor Ed Reiner contributed
continually to the confusion by turning out a
minimum of ten pictures a day, most of which
wei'e tiled on top of the office desk. Ed's picture-
taking schedule also managed to confuse some
of the best minds on the Faculty.
The literary staff, including associate editors
Greg Alexander and Art Wright, became hard-
ened during the year to working knee deep in
Oxydol suds, side by side with grunting weight
lifters. Originality was required of these men in
laying out the book, subtlety and cleverness in
writing the articles, and stealth and cunning in
stealing and or borrowing for Record use the
typewriters of the solitary residents of Leeds
singles. Gordon Liechty, erstwhile copy editor,
soon became the brains behind the whole opera-
tion ; Bob Colburn translated Haverf ord's ath-
letic achievements into yearbook copy; and fea-
tures editor Phil Miller lent the creativity of an
English major to a rather prosaic staff.
Somehow the stresses and strains involved
did not prevent the Record from taking on a
new aspect. The writing of more than a hundred
students appears in the book, coverage is the
most complete ever, and the cover was re-
designed. And besides, it has color pictures.
Infiinging on the sacred domain of the duck.s, the
photography staff chooses a sylvan setting for its

COMMITTEES
BIG BROTHER
The Big Brother — Sub-Freshman Guide
Committee has the dubious honor of possessing
the longest name on campus. But it has the
definite distinction of playing an important role
in every Haverfordian's college career.
Critical high school applicants, with equally
critical parents in tow, are given the ten-dollar
tour of the campus by committee guides. In the
summer each wide-eyed sub-freshmen is sub-
jected to a letter from "Big Brother," who
(ideally) follows through in the fall by provid-
ing "Little Brother" with a speaking knowl-
edge of Haverfordia.

CLASS NIGHT
The Students' Council begat the Class Night
Committee, and the committee in turn begat
Class Night. The paternal intermediary in this
creative process was headed by Mai Kaufman,
John Shepherd, and John Hayter.
The group not only kept participants from
burning down Roberts Hall with cigarette
butts, but also insured that complete confusion
reigned when ticket applications were distrib-
uted. Then, out of weeks of chaotic prepara-
tions, the committee presented a Class Night
enjoyed by all, save a few squeamish Bryn
Mawr fillies.
Mirthfully considering a student questionnaire, the
Curriculum Committee disturbs the Library calm:

CURRICULUM
The function of the Students' Curriculum
Committee has never been precisely defined.
Therefore its choice of activities, based on the
members' personal interests and the moment's
pertinent problems, usually encompasses as
large an area as its title.
This year's committee, led by n-dimensional
Tenney Peck, plowed its way through investiga-
tions of the advisor system and the student
load. What the College will learn from these
probes is still inconclusive ; what the committee
has learned remains for next year's group to
evaluate.

HONOR SYSTEM
Providing the incoming freshman class with
a clear ami effective introduction to Haver-
ford's standards of academic and social conduct
is the principal task of the Honor System Com-
mittee. After sending letters to each freshman
during the summer and holding discussion .ses-
sions with them in the fall, the committee reg-
isters the new class in the Honor Pledge Book
upon their acceptance of the S.vstem.
The group also explains the Honor Code to
new faculty members. This year, in addition,
the committee discussed an extension of the
System to include use of library facilities.
SERVICE FUND
The only organized campus giving campaign,
the Service Fund Drive, had a slightly atypical
year. Breaking a Haverford tradition, the mem-
bers of the committee themselves explained the
charities to the student body in a special Col-
lection program. The students, in turn, showed
less than the usual tight-fisted apath.v, and re-
ceipts rose to a record high.
The Montgomery County Home for Retarded
Children, a Colorado workshop to train young
American Indian leaders, and a Friends inter-
racial center in Southern Rhodesia all received
the Fund's support.

De-spite the inhibitory tendencies of Haver-
ford's fabled "academic pressure," the Social
Committee managed to sneak in a few movies
and "record hops" this year. The committee
also sponsored the first annual (?) Christmas
Dance in an attempt to establish a new College
tradition. For this occasion, the Haverford
Rhythm Section "wailed" a fine performance,
while H. Klingenmaier and Co. donated the
professional touch of their superb decorations.
Although the spastic presentation of social
functions left much to be desired, the Tri-

the committee's inactive moments.

CAUCUS CLUB
The Caucus Club, home of aspiring politi-
cians, is a seasonal organization. Beginning
each year with a flurry of activity over the na-
tional or local political campaign, its Demo-
cratic and Republican factions separate to aid
their respective parties — though lately it has
been difficult to find Republicans on campus.
After election day the club reunites and re-
turns to its norm of relative inactivity. An
occasional speaker or trip to Washington give
it a semblance of life, but it is reborn only
with the next academic year and the challenge
of another political campaign.
LC.G.
The Intercollegiate Conference on Govern-
ment, through its functions at Harrisburg and
10th Entry, has given a new dimension to the
study of politics at Haverford. From its campus
office in 9th Entry — long noted for its political
orientation — the LC.G. encourages a study of
the mechanics of government.
A guiding force in intercollegiate govern-
ment "affairs," the Haverford chapter captured
high offices — 1st Librarian and Head Time-
keeper— at both the regional and state con-
ventions.

CHESS CLUB
To the average Haverford student, the
Bridge Club is simply an organization which
monopolizes the Union Lounge on Sunday
afternoons. These sessions, used primarily for
bidding and trying to make contracts, are also
good opportunities for students to let off steam
by cursing at their partners.
Competing on the intercollegiate level, the
club defeated the University of Pennsylvania
in a close match. In addition, one member of
the club usually writes a weekly column in the
News, presenting interesting hands to any
bridge players who happen to read the paper.
Haverford's Chess Club marches on success-
fully, even if somewhat silently. Thanks to the
interest of seniors George Marsden, Frank
Dietrich, and Dave Rivers, as well as a clan of
Rhoadses, chess activity has reached a height
rarely seen at a small college.
A large amount of interest centers about the
weekly meeting with the Bryn Mawr club, but
chess is not without its traumas: Immortal is
the excursion to a match in a North Philadel-
phia basement one winter's eve, when the five
doughty warriors discovered that their arrival
was precisely one week late.

ment with such rivals as Bryn Mawr. Villanova,

Much ink has been spilled in discussing the
role of intercollegiate athletics in the College
curriculum. Far be it from us to spill any more.
The fact remains that Haverford, for all its
academic emphasis, offers twelve varsity and
eight junior varsity sports. In all three seasons,
Ford teams manage to field enough men to com-
pete — and in some cases, rather well. The
opinion of the .student body concerning the
athletic endeavors of the Scarlet and Black
varies considerably. Attendance at events is
sparse, as a rule, and only for Hood Trophy
contests is there much of a turnout. But what-
ever fans do attend are generally a loud and
.spirited bunch. What, then, is the role of
athletics at Haverford ? Who knows, beyond the
fact that contributions for the Field House
Annex are now being received?
The day is warm with Indian summer, and a small crowd has gathered in the Memorial stands. .Spirit is high as

Fielding one of the smallest squads in many
years, Haverford's football team fought to a
4-3 record. This performance is impressive, be-
cause the team had to win the last three games
to finish with a winning season, and it meant
that this year's seniors have played on winning
teams each of their four years at Haverford.
Opening their season against Wagner on
Walton Field, the gridders suffered a heart-
breaking 15-14 defeat. Although the visitors
scored first. Norm Woldorf's recovery of a
Wagner fumble set the stage for Bob Ortman's
carry around end for the score and extra points.
Early in the second half, Ortman intercepted a
pass and went 51 yards for Haverford's second
touchdown. The conversion failed, however, and
Wagner marched 70 yards on the kickoff for
the score and winning conversion kick.
Traveling to Carlisle for the first time in
several years, the Fords evened their season's
record with a 14-0 victory over Dickinson.
Throughout the first half the ball changed
hands many times, and the Fords never threat-
ened to score. After the halftime intermission,
though, the Quakers took a punt on Dickinson's
38, and pass interference gave them the ball on
the nine. From there Ortman carried for the
score. Then, midway in the final period John

Andy Green found the ball in his hands, so he ran with
it — naturally. Jack Coker and John Eshleman move in
to block.
Eshleman intercepted a pass to set up Mickey
Kaback's victory-insurinpr one-yard plunge.
In the next two games, Haverford lost to its
toughest opponents, Johns Hopkins and Hamil-
ton. At Hopkins the team showed its best
offense of the year. Kaback's passing was out-
standing, as he continually hit Ted Robinson,
Ortman, and Larry Griffith for long gains.
Meeting Hamilton in a rainy Homecoming
game the following Saturday, the Fords were
victims of long runs and a tight defense. Forced
to punt several times, the Quakers received
some fine kicking from Grifiith, who averaged
over 40 yards per punt.
After an open date, the Fords were virtually
obliged to win the final three games. The team
conquered Ursinus easily, 38-6, but were given
a scare when a Bear halfback broke loose for
a touchdown on the first play of the game.
Haverford retaliated quickly, as Ortman scored
on a one-yard plunge, and Kaback threw a
touchdown pass to Grifiith after Ursinus
fumbled the kickoff. Later in the first half the
fleet-footed Ortman scored again on a 47-yard
run. In the second half, freshman Bill Freilich
scored twice — one of these touchdowns was a
gallop through the entire Ursinus team. Jim
Ungerleider added the final score on a slice off
tackle. Kaback had one of his finest days, as
he completed over 65'; ^ of his passes for 215
yards in the air.
The Fords now travelled to Susquehanna,
where they tackled the favored host team. Sus-
quehanna jumped to a 7-0 lead by falling on a
blocked punt in the Haverford end zone, but
in the second half the Quakers rallied to score

on a long pass from Kaback to Griffith. Seconds
later Griffith took another Kaback pass for the
extra points and an 8-7 victory. Haverford's
defensive work by Woldorf, Andy Green, Al

quehanna threats.

eral Swarthmore fumbles. After Ungerleider
smashed off tackle for the first score, Freilich
took a Kaback pass on the three and lateralled
to tackle Woldorf, who raced into the end zone
for the second touchdown. Ortman climaxed a
great year by scoring on dashes of 10 and 25
yards to put the game on ice.
Special recognition is also due Ortman for
being chosen on the E.C.A.C. Ail-American
Team, while Robinson, Kaback, and Green were
given Honorable Mention. Griffith was honored
with the Wright Cup Award, and Woldorf was
selected on the All-East Team-of-the-Week for
his outstanding play against Swarthmore.

HAPLESS J. V. GRIDMEN FAIL TO WIN
Completing a rather unsuccessful season, the
J.V. football team lost all three of its games. In
its first encounter, Haverford lost to P.M.C. by
a lone touchdown, 13-6. Despite the power run-
ning of John Bower and Dan Heilman, the
Fords had trouble scoring, and P.M.C. jumped
to a 13-0 lead. A fine run by Doug Decker
set up the Ford's only score, with Heilman
carrying for the points.
The following week, Haverford hosted Bryn
Athyn in its best game of the year, losing a 6-0
heartbreaker. The Fords pressed to the visitors'
eight-yard line on the running of Bower and
Bo Schambelan, but were held on downs. Hugh
McCleod and John Fox played good ball, but the
team couldn't push over a score.
In their final game of the year, the junior
gridders travelled to Swarthmore, where the
Garnet pinned a 21-0 defeat on them. The game
was a scoreless tie throughout the first half,
and the defen.se was particularly sharp, holding
inside the 20 several times. But Swarthmore
dominated the second half and went on to win
the Bucket Trophy game.

Haverford's erratic approach to varsity soc-
cer in the fall of 1958 is reflected in its mediocre
6-5-1 record. As a whole the team was solidly
manned at each position and was quite capable
of good soccer, but this was not always evident
in such unfortunate encounters as the Lehigh
and Swarthmore games.
The season began optimistically, as the Fords
eliminated the Alumni by a 5 to 1 count. Then,
in its first league game, the team continued its
winning ways over Franklin and Marshall,
with Werner Muller and Evan Alderson play-
ing major roles in the 3-1 victory.
Illusions of an undefeated season were brief.
The Fords arrived at Princeton without the
services of five varsity players who were either
injured or sick. As a result, the team did well
to escape with a 3-0 loss. The next game was
less depressing. With most of the disabled
players back in the lineup against Rutgers,
captain Muller off'ered up some razzle-dazzle
soccer. Holly Taylor played a tight game in the
goal, and the team pushed across two quick
goals in the second overtime for a 2-0 win.
Against undefeated Lafayette the Fords
pulled a crowd teaser by letting the crew from
Easton run off to a 3-0 halftime lead. After a
few appropriate remarks from Coach Jimmy
Mills between halves, though, the team caught

Haverford tied the score and continued to press
the visitors until the final whistle. The Lafa-
yette coach, sensing the fatigued condition of
his faltering forces, refused to play the re-
quired overtimes, thus giving Haverford a 1-0
forfeit victory.
Ursinus gave the Fords little trouble as the
team swept to a 5-0 triumph. The game was
marked offensively by Jim Morris' two goals
from outside left, while center halfback Allen

of the game. There is little to be said about the
team's first league loss to undefeated Lehigh,
except that the field was wet and the Fords pos-
sessed little ball control or teamwork. The next
game, a league match with Temple, was much
the same as the Lehigh contest, except that
three added days of rain made the field even
wetter. Actually, the game was more even than
the 6-3 score indicates. Worth noting was the
excellent game turned in by goalkeeper Larry
Forman.
Haverford finally emerged from its losing
spin with a 3-1 victory over La Salle and pro-
ceeded to reach its season's peak against an un-
defeated Navy team. Unlike many previous
years, Haverford completely outplayed and out-
hustled the Middies for the first three quarters.
The quick, accurate passing of insides Muller
and Swan, backed up by wing halves Alderson
and Kovacsics, kept Navy constantly on the de-
fense. The Middle fullbacks stood firm, how-
ever, and managed to break up the Ford ofi'ense
whenever it moved deep into Navy territory.
In the last quarter and two overtimes. Navy
pressed hard, but it too was unable to penetrate
its opponent's backfield. Final score : 0-0.
Back to its erratic ways, the Mainliners lost
to a strong Penn team in a close 2-0 game.
The Philadelphia Quakers capitalized on two
breaks to score their goals. As for the Swarth-
niore engagement, there is little to be said, ex-
cept that Haverford played one of its worst
games of the season. Outside of the eff'orts of
Morris, Fi.scher, and Harry Leeser, the team
was quite inefl'ective in its 5-1 Hood Trophy
loss.

/. V. SOCCER ENDS "PERFECT" SEASON
In order to appreciate the J.V. soccer team,
one must disreKard its unimpressive 0-8 record
and examine the philosphy behind Haverford
athletics. Ignoring Lou Little's Collection
speech (on the importance of winning), the
team accrued such intangible benefits as sports-
manship, camaraderie, and game experience.
A respectable loss to Princeton opened the
season, and a wave of optimism permeated the
locker room after the hooters dropped a close
2-1 game to Penn. Ted Hoen tallied Haverford's
only goal in the latter contest. Ford optimism
was shattered at Hill School, though, where
the squad's performance hit bottom. P^'atigued
from a strenuous waterfight the night before,
the team crawled to a 4-0 defeat.
Capitalizing on a wet, muddy field. Coach
Jack Lester's squad next ruined a Westtown
bid for a 7-0 shutout. Although the line played
well, led by the wading of George Tai and Joel
Lowenthal, the backfield seemed to dissolve in
the puddles. After a repeat loss to the Penn
J.V.'s, the Fords succumbed to Ogontz, despite
the fine defensive play of Elliot Fenander,
Matt Stanley, and Don Snider. The hooters
next took a crack at the Penn freshmen. But
this game was merely a rehearsal for the
Bucket Trophy Swarthmore game, and both
contests produced 3-2 defeats for the Fords.

HARRIERS WIN TWO IN MEDIOCRE YEAR
Under the leadership of captain Sandy
Phillips and new coach William Breuninger,
Haverford's cross country team finished its
season with two wins, a second in a triangular
meet, and four losses.
The harriers opened at Albright, but lost to
the host team despite a good showing by fresh-
men Dave Gwatkin and Matt Strickler and
sophomore Bob Matthews. Bouncing back a
week later, the team downed Delaware 18-40
and P.M.C. 20-39 to avenge the earlier loss.
The harriers showed good balance in both these

meets, placing five men within the top seven.
Phillips, Dave Hillier, Larry Schumpert, Pete
Jernquist, and Gwatkin all finished among the
leaders.
From there on in the sledding was rough,
as the squad lost dual meets to Lafayette, Mora-
vian, and Swarthmore. On a cold, rainy day at
Lafayette, the Fords were shut out by one of
the strongest opponents they faced all year. In
a triangular meet with Johns Hopkins and
Washington College, the team was solidlv
downed by Hopkins, but managed to edge out
Washington 57-58. Running on a short 3.2-mile
course, Hopkins set a faster pace than the
Fords had seen all season.
The loss to Moravian was a heartbreaking
27-29 defeat with Schumpert, Hillier, Phillips,
Jernquist, and Strickler again pacing the
leaders. Against Swarthmore the harriers were
outclassed by a strong Garnet team, although
Hillier and Schumpert placed second and
fourth respectively.
In the Middle Atlantics, held at the conclu-
sion of the season, the Ford team finished
twelfth among the eighteen competing col-
leges. Paced by Hillier and Jernquist, the squad
downed such scliools as Albright, Gettysburg,
Delawai'e, and Moravian.

CAGERS START FAST FADE AT FINISH
After getting off to a fast start, Coach Ernie
Prudente's varsity basketball team ran into
trouble late in the season and ended the year
with a slightly above-average nine and seven
record.
Opening against a strong Delaware team, the
Fords succumbed by a 73-56 count, although
Larry Forman and Tom Del Bello hit double
figures. The Quakers' next game was more to
the team's liking, as the hoopsters downed
Rutgers (South Jersey) 79-62 to begin a four-
game winning streak. The Fords, never behind
in this game, displayed a well-balanced attack,
as five players scoi'ed ten or more points.
The following week, the team barely man-
aged to edge out Stevens 57-55. The visitors
from New Jersey jumped to a seven point lead
with three minutes remaining in the game, but
the Fords rallied with ten quick points, and
Forman's- winning bucket came within four
seconds of the final buzzer. Playing host to
Johns Hopkins in the Alumni Field House,
Haverford outscored the visitors 69-53. Then,
in the final game before Christmas vacation, the
Fords crushed the National Aggies 82-71, as
captain Pete Eidenberg compiled 24 points.
Returning from vacation, the Fords saw
their winning streak broken as they lost to
Moravian 78-53. Bouncing back quickly, how-
ever, the team edged out Ursinus 65-64 with
Forman sinking the winning basket in the last
two seconds of the game. Drexel was next on

the Fords' list, and Haverford registered a
65-48 win over the Dragons. Building on a
25-20 halftime lead, the team caught fire in the
second period and raced to an easy victory.
Following a heartbreaking 65-63 loss to
P.M.C. at Chester, the Fords returned to their
home court to triumph over Drew. Al Johnson,
Forman, and Del Bello sparked the team in its
best offense of the year, and the Fords rolled
up a comfortable 80-44 conquest. Continuing its
winning ways against Ursinus, the team capi-
talized on Johnson's 15 points and Buster
Fauntleroy's 17 rebounds to overcome a 31-27
half-time deficit and take the game. The Fords
next took on Swarthmore in the Field House
and won handily 58-47. Harris David's spark-
ling play, Forman's 19 points, and Eidenberg's
rebounding aided strongly in the victory.
At this point in the season, the Fords boasted
a nine and three record and were contenders for
the 3Iiddle Atlantic (Southern Division)
crown. Any such title hopes were soon dis-
pelled, though, as the team dropped its last four
games. After a 77-62 loss to Drexel, the team
met P.M.C. at home. The Quakers led by ten
points in the third quarter, but subsequently

the hometown spirits.
In their second game with Swarthmore —

dumped by an inspired Garnet team. Haver-
ford jumped to an early first quarter lead, but
Swarthmore gained a 32-29 halftime advantage
which it never relinquished despite the inspired
play of David and Eidenberg.

/. V. HOOPSTERS SPORT 5-6 RECORD
The J. V. basketball team approached a .500
season this year with a 5-6 record. Dropping
their first three contests, the Fords fell to Dela-
ware, Rutgers, and Ogontz, despite two 25-point
productions by Rick Gillmor.
Led by the scoring of Walt Dent, Dick
Lockey, and Gillmor and the rebounding of Noel
Matchett, Tom Henderson, and John Hurford,
the team rolled to an easy 77-57 victory over
Ursinus. A 65-63 loss to Drexel preceded the
Fords' 71-62 conquest of P.M.C, in which
Lockey, Matchett, and Bill Erb hit double
figures.
The following week, Haverford scored a re-
peat victory over Ursinus. .Jumping to a 17-6
first-period lead, the Fords were never seriously
threatened and coasted to a 76-47 win. Then,
after only two days' rest, the Quakers utilized
a well-balanced scoring attack to dump Swarth-
more by a 56-41 count. From there the Fords
went on to clip Drexel 76-70, reaching the high
point of their season. Unfortunately the final
two contests were recorded as Haverford
losses. The victors: a strengthened P.M.C.
team and a determined five from Swarthmore.

16-16 tie from Delaware. Decisions by Green
and Harry Leeser, a half -nelson crotch hold by
Turner for a pin, and a brief 1 :21 pin by Kato-
witz accounted for the 16 points.
After an exam recess, the grapplers con-
tinued their winning ways by downing the
Drexel Dragons 21-11. Chris Fuges, wrestling
in his first varsity match, flattened his opponent
with a half-nelson and arm-bar lock. Leeser
and Schambelan followed shortly with de-
cisions, Sedwick and Katowitz won easily with
quick pins, and victory was assured.
Despite a crushing head-scissors hold by
Leeser and decisions by Schambelan and Sed-
wick, Muhlenberg nosed out the Fords by a
slim 15-11 margin. Another defeat followed at
the hands of Biicknell, the Quaker's strongest
opponent of the year, as the visitors outclassed
Doc Harter's boys by a 23-5 score. Moravian
offered no relief, smashing the grapplers 20-8.
Marsden's decisions and Katowitz' quick pin
accounted for the only Haverford points.
Preparing for the annual Hood Trophy con-
test with Swarthmore, the matmen tightened
their belts, and each man dropped down a
weight in a surprise bit of strategy to make
room for Joe Mamana at 177. Once on the arch-
rival's mat, Harry Leeser started the victory
l)ell tolling with an early pin. Mai-sden followed
with another five-pointer, and Green continued
the streak with a decision. Sedwick and Kato-
witz wrapped up the 23-11 win with decisive
pins.
With victory in their blood, the Fords moved
on to P.M.C. to battle the .soldiers for Middle
Atlantic honors. Leeser used an arm-bar, Mars-
den employed a reverse nelson, and Bruce
Campbell capitalized on a cradle hold ; thi'ee
quick pins were the result. Schambelan deci-
sioned his man, and a Middle Atlantic title was
captured.
In four matches the J.V. wrestling team com-
piled a fair 1-2-1 record. Half-nelsons and body
presses were in style against Ursinus as Fuges,

the junior grapplei's 23-10, with Campbell's tie,
Emery's decision, and Fuges' pin making up
the Ford points. Drexel then pasted the J.V.
squad, 38-0. In the Bucket Trophy match with
Swarthmore, forfeits gave the Garnet a 10-5
lead, but Steve Klineberg and Phil Miller
pinned their opponents, and a final heavyweight
forfeit by Swarthmore produced a 20-20 tie.

Henry Gordon's patient tutelage finally paid
off in a season of comparative success for the
fencing team. The bladesmen fought their way
to a 3-2 record in league competition and a
three-weapon second place in the Middle Atlan-
tic Tournament.

each weapon: foilsman and captain Elliott

against Muhlenberg, with the epee team taking
seven of nine matches and Lederer, Browny

sabre. The Lehigh meet was the season's most
disappointing encounter. Determined blade-

epeemen failed at the last minute, resulting in
a 14-13 defeat.
The team bounced back to a resounding 18-9
victory over Temple, and a 19-8 defeat at the
hands of Stevens was not demoralizing, since
the latter were the previous year's Middle At-
lantic champions. In the Hopkins meet, the
bladesmen fought determinedly down to the
final matches. Foil battles came off brilliantly,
and the final 2 for 3 in epee clinched the contest.
In non-league conflicts, the team was out-

Heiman was able to score. Rutgers of South

were less hopeless but still uneven.
The winning season record plus the near-win

Undei- the very able leadership of captain Bob
Pratt, '58, last year's tennis team compiled
an impressive 9-2 record. On the traditional
pre-season southern trip, the Ford netmen lost
8-1 to Navy, beat Quantico 5-3, and narrowly
lost 5-4 to Virginia.
Returning to more familiar environs, the
Fords proceeded to win five matches in a row.
The spell was broken when Georgetown scored
a resounding 7-2 victory, but Haverford then
proceeded to "murder" both Ursinus and
Drexel by identical 9-0 scores. Hopes I'an high

spectacular fashion by identical 9-0 tallies.
The season was climaxed by the excellent
play of Pratt and 1959 captain-elect Bill Ful-

of the most thrilling matches ever seen on the
Haverford campus, Pratt gained revenge

EIDENBERG LEADS HOPEFUL FORD NINE
The '59 version of Haverford's baseball team
is highlighted by the return of eight lettermen
from last year's squad and is looking forward
to a successful season this spring. The team
posted only two victories in 1958, but gained
valuable experience and ended the season with
a better than .900 lielding average. Last year's
victories included wins over P.M.C. and
Rutgers of South Jersey: the team also played
to a 5-5 tie against P.M.C. in their second en-
counter with the soldiers.
This spring the team will benefit from an
especially large turnout including several good
prospects in the freshman class. The entire
infield returns this year, headed by captain
Pete Eidenberg at first base. A versatile player,
Eidenberg may also be called upon to bolster
the pitching staff as well. Hard-hitting Harris
David returns to second base, where he will
team up with Marc Briod at shortstop for a
dependable keystone combination. Back at third
base will be Bob Colburn, who led the regulars
in hitting last year. Mickey Kaback, who has
been one of the standouts in early season prac-
tice, will be taking on the catching duties. Pro-
viding reserve strength at second will be Mark
Thompson, another stalwart of last year's J.V.
team.
Returning prospects for the outfield positions
include Bob Ortman, v/hose .438 batting aver-
age unofficially led the team a year ago; Rick
Gillmor, who may also see some pitching duties
if his arm trouble improves; Norm Forster, a
standout for the J.V. team last year; and Pierce
Pelouze, whose strong hitting in early season
practice will make him a likely contender. Jeff
Hecht, out for the first time, is also fighting
for a varsity post.
The freshman class has several members who
will be pushing the veterans for varsity posi-
tions. John Eshleman, although hampered by
arm trouble, has been working out at first base.
Bill Freilich has shown a lot of potential while
shuttling between second and shortstop, and
Preston Mears has looked sharp at the hot
corner. Nate Natelson will be trying for an
outfield spot, while Bob Allendoerfer has seen
action in the outfield as well as at first base.

Shades of Henry Pleasants, '06: Fred Schulze bowls for the 1959 cricket team against Philadelphia Textile Institute.
CRICKETERS PREDICT JOLLY GOOD YEAR
"Can you imagine this whole world could yield
A spot more beautiful than our old field?
Ring'd round with immemorial elms it lies
A fair green lawn, . . ."
Francis C. Benson has captured the verdant
setting of the oval upon which Haverford
cricket has been played for over a century and
upon which the 113th Haverford cricket eleven
will host its opponents this spring. After being
introduced at Haverford in the 1830's by the
English gardener William Carvill, cricket's
Resplendent in whites and blazer, captain Don Scar-
borough displa.vs his best batting form.
gentlemanly personality has sunned itself each
spring on the doorstep of College Circle.
The Field House, too, has proven indispen-
sable this year in the pre-season development of
bowlers and batters for the squad. When the
team began practice on Cope Field in mid-
March, the nucleus of six returning lettermen
had been amply supplemented by underclass
aspirants for positions on the first eleven.
Returning as coach after an absence of three
years, Howard Comfort, perhaps the will of
cricket at Haverford, will give the team the
much needed instruction which has been lack-
ing in his absence. An excellent "thinking"
bowler and an able batsman himself. Dr.
Comfort is perhaps the best qualified cricket
coach in the Philadelphia area.
As returning lettermen this year, Owen
deRis, Fred Schulze. Joel Lowenthal, Don
Scarborough, and Browny Speer are expected
to form the nucleus of the squad. DeRis, a letter
winner last year as a freshman, Schulze, winner
of the 1959 "Improvement Bat," and captain
Scarborough should form the nucleus of the
"defensive" battery side. However, Pete
Howard and Rhinie Don Snider are expected to
contribute significantly to the scoring column.
The bowling chores will fall mainly on
Howard, Schulze, Snider, and Scarborough.
Howard howls tricky balls to either side of the
wicket, and if he is able to control his slow
deliveries, should be able to develop into the
eleven's most effective bowler. Schulze delivers
a medium pace ball with jrood length and an
effective off-break. A taker of many wickets
last year, he shows signs of developing even
further this year. He should thus be a strong
contender for the "Congdon Prize Ball,"
awarded each year to the cricketer with the
best bowling average. Shifting from wicket
keeping to bowling and fielding this year, cap-
tain Scarborough is expected to become a fairly
effective second string bowler and, along with
Snider, will fill the number three and four
bowling positions.
Browny Speer is expected to win the tricky
wicket-keeping po.st. Gifted with a quick eye
and considerable daring for going after the
bowlers' wide balls and the batsmen's snicks,
Speer should do more than an adequate job.
Surveying the situation on the crease as the
season begins, coach Comfort and captain
Scarborough have high hopes that the team
will round out into what Haverford cricket
knows as a "good eleven."
Pete Howai'd keeps a "straight bat," as Steve Miller
and wicket-keeper Owen deRis await snicks.

The '59 golf team seems to have good pros-

men," who have already come out for practice.
Captain Martin Teem, '59, heads an aggrega-

March on the Merion West Course. Showing
good form early, Jack Smith has pulled in
four cards under 80 in six times out, while
his brother Jere's summer record in the low
70's gives some indication of his probable
performance.
Frank Lyman, '59, a former member of the
squad, has returned from his year in Europe
and is vying for a position on the team with
three freshmen : Matt Stanley, Dave Sedwick,
and Skip Johnson. The latter trio lack experi-
ence, but give strong reserve strength to the
team as it faces a tough schedule of eleven
matches.

Haverford's sailing team is probably the
least known of all athletic .squads. Despite its
obscurity and small size, it sports a good record
in local meets, though getting overwhelmed in
Middle Atlantic Division competition.
One of the great "joys" of .sailing is the con-
tinual challenge of the elements, for sailing
meets go on through rain and snow. Refreshing
surprises like swamping and going for a swim
in 40 water — fully clad, of course — add in-

terest to the events. There are days, too, when
the wind disappears and leaves the crews to
drift, always in the wrong direction.
The fall season started out with an overhaul
of last year's team, as seniors Nat Wing and
Joel Tobias temporarily abandoned ship for
more serious pursuits. Thus decimated, the
squad took on Rhinies for the first time in
years. These men. Bob Allendoerfer, Pete
Lundt, and Charles Robinson, were a valuable
addition to the team. As a good standard of
performance, the Greater Philadelphia Cham-
pionships yielded Haverford a third place out
of eight competitors.
As usual, the spring schedule presents a chal-
lenging sea.son of racing. In addition to regular
meets, Tobias and captain Denny Baker are
scheduled for mono-type events (races with
single-manned boats). The squad is also being
reinforced by Thayer Willis, who was unable to
sail last fall. At press time the team anticipates
good sailing and little swimming.

"But ivlnj do we have to go to Meeting every

obviously "nothing new." Moreover, every time
a student eats dinner in Founders Hall, or goes
to class in Chase, or even squishes his way
around campus on muddy bricks and fragrant
gingko berries, he is only the most recent of
generations of Haverfordians who have seen
and done the same things long before. It is with
these customs in mind that we have included

The job of a college yearbook staff would be
made much easier if everyone on the college

what anyone else is doing at any time, the task
of trying to make some sense and intelligible
order out of random occurrences must be con-

that college courses teach, it is the ability to
make rash generalizations. This section, which

COLLECTION
ALISTAIR COOKE
MARGARET MEAD
PEARL S. BUCK
There are several worthwhile features of Collection which are
often overlooked in the heated debates centering on the topic. If
nothing else, there is lunch with the speaker of the day, where the
food is above the Dining Room's usual Tuesday standard. There is
also the feeling of togetherness one gets in the crush on the Roberts
Hall staircase; the bond with toe-crushing latecomers, who always
seem to sit in the middle of the row ; and the sense of unity arising
from common suffering on the sleep-preventing seats.
At the scene of the weekly battle of wills, the President intro-
duces the morning's challenge with commendable brevity, after a
barrage of cryptic announcements from shaking students and
administrators. The speaker usually senses the belligerence of the
captive audience and tries the subterfuge of a humorous story. The
obvious failure of this ruse leaves no recourse but direct attack;
generally, this is easily repulsed.
The students, in turn, launch their offensive during the ques-
tion period and are as easily thwarted. A draw is declared ; Collec-
tion is adjourned; and great new questions have entered student
minds: "Was that really Mr. Buck driving the limousine?", "What
ever happened to Mr. Meade?", "Let's see now, how many Collection
cuts do I have left?"

It has been said, by one of the great men of
our country, "If I wished to achieve an attitude
of meditation, the best way to achieve that atti-
tude would be to go back in memory to the
Meeting House where as a rebellious youth I
sat for so many years . . ."
With these thoughts before us on Thursday
morning, even the hurried walk to Meeting be-
comes symbolic. The gingko trees not only
create suffering in our souls, but awaken us
as well to the nature which surrounds us;
the joy of the children romping at recess stirs
in us, by contrast, the burden of our adulthood ;
and lastly, the graveyard marks the brevity of
our existence. It is with a new and serious
demeanor that we suppliants approach the
threshold of the Meeting House.
Lest the sincerity of our purpose be over-
looked, we check in with the crass paper-and-
pencil boys at the portals. Then we enter, find
an empty square foot of hor.sehair cushion, and
settle down to receive an impression of simplic-
ity, integrity, sincerity, and profundity. With
our new attitude, we find the stares facing us
not altogether vacant ; and the interior of the
old building seems pleasingly simple.
Ah, but the same sloppy student body is dis-
gracing the newly painted walls, while the same
textbooks, letters, and magazines vilify the
Quaker way of worship. We had better just
close our eyes and meditate . . . but before we
can delve into inner depths, someone gets up to
speak. The appeal for loving thoughts, serious-
ness of purpose, and /or sensibility of belief is
set in parables of geese, quotes about fallen
trees, and travel tales of Mexico, Africa, and
New Jersey.
Despite efforts to keep mental direction, we
wonder if the methods of saying the same thing
can ever be exhausted. Resolving the problem
negatively, we again close our eyes to encour-
age the guiding spirit and are surprised to find
our thoughts engaged — unfortunately only in
scheduling the time left before exams, calculat-
ing the costs of last weekend, or fighting down
an impulse to look at our watch. Losing this last
battle, we open our eyes in time to see the fra-
ternal handshake, marking the end of the quiet
hour that interrupts a bustling week.
But the return to reality is gradual . . . some
.students are still reading Time on the walk
back to campus, and the slow-moving Thursday
lunch line gives a pei'fect oppoi'tunity for more
thorough spiritual self-examination.

THE CLASS OF '59 LOOKS

i^^^^^H^H^^B «>.
Young and dynamic Gilbert White served as president
of the College during our first semester here.
As the Class of 1959 looks back upon its first
three years of college, it perceives a series of
blurred impressions. The years went by quickly
. . . and yet there were enough memorable
events to break the monotony of studying. . . .
We entered Haverford when it was under the
leadership of Gilbert White, but saw only
enough of him to form a deep admiration to-
ward him and then bid him an almost tearful
goodbye. The College was then passed to "Mac"
who kept things rolling smoothly until a new
president was chosen. Remember the time when
Mac came rushing to the Dining Hall expecting
to quell the most violent riot of Haverford's
history, only to be met by a round of sincere
applause and a seat of honor. . . .
And now we are leaving, with Haverford
under new management. Hugh Borton's arrival
was a stirring event, for light was shed im-
mediately into several dark and dusty corners
of Haverford's existence. A Code of Responsi-
bilities was born and nourished to maturity.
Our years at Haverford were the last in thu long
coaching career of Pop Haddleton.
A great event in our junior year: the erection of the
tent for President Borton's inauguration. The door is
for the elephant.
while its brother, the fraternity question, has
yet remained a floundering child. A definite
"No" chased the United States Defense Depart-
ment from our doors. Perhaps one of President
Borton's most ambitious undertakings was his
attempt at shading the lawn between Founders
and Lloyd during the hot, dry autumn days. An
elephant almost found its way to our campus
that year. . . .
The Coop was put under new management,
too, while we were here. And we saw its old,
staid appearance change like magic into a
streamlined yellow and green, resembling a
modern pizzeria. But just think of all the im-
provements that were made while we were
BACK-VENIMUS, VIDIMUS,
here. Sunken gardens was made beautiful,
Leeds Hall was finished and opened, the Field
House arched its ominous green back, and hot
plates were at last allowed in the dormitories.
The drum and kazoo corp made its first appear-
ance, the Rocket Society was founded, and the
maids — oh yes, the maids. What a time they
had getting used to us ! And we have mourned
the death of "family style" eating. The bread
line has taken its place. . . .
It was our class that ended the famous old
tradition of the active freshman rivalry in Cus-
toms period, for we proved to be the indisput-
able champions, throwing 27 sophomores into
William Meldi'um, dean of the cheni (lei)artnient foi-

of Asiatic flu and the biggest snow storm of
Philadelphia's hi.story. Through these years,
the assistant dieticians have come and gone,
and the watchmen too (and don't forget Dan
Ely and Mrs. Mays), as well as about twenty-
five faculty members, and of course many of
our own brothers in the Class of '59. To them
we tip our academic caps and cease this ram-
bling, never-ending stream of memory.

Relations between Haverford and Bi'yn

social plane. Almost any week-night, and some-
times even on week-ends, hordes of Haverford
cars trundle over to Bryn Mawr. At practically
any hour, one can get a ride to B.M.C. to pick
up or deposit a date. And despite rumors about
Princeton favoritism, close scrutiny reveals
many Haverford pins in prominent places at
Bryn Mawr.

exists between music and drama groups,

YEAR IN REVIEW
1958-59 has not been much different from the
usual college year at Haverford : The same old
freshmen arrived looking bewildered and un-
certain; the same old dances (in many cases
the same old girls) were held in the same old
Gym ; and the same old jokes were heard on
Class Night. Except for the fact that the Col-
lege entered on the second quarter of its second
century, this might have been any year from
1940 to 1980. Still, when viewed closely, 1958-
59 did have its own peculiar flavor. The enter-
ing freshman class ("the best ever," as always)
had unusual gumption and more than the usual
number of shaved heads during Customs.
Swarthmore didn't even score a point on the
gridiron during the Hood Trophy game. And
there finally was a Class Night with tico good
shows.

mittee. We're going to show you what goes on

before the other. Keep your hat on at all times.

October 28, 1958 marked the 125th anniver-
sary of the opening of the College. In joyful
remembrance of this hallowed occasion, the Col-
lege held what it called the "125th Anniversary
Celebration" during late October and early
November.
On October 19. to start the festival rolling,
the Library Associates and the English depart-
ment sponsored a talk, "Christopher Morley
as Man and Writer," by his brother Frank. On
the following Saturday, Alumni and their wives
heard President Borton and Dean Lockwood
tell of the Future and Past of the College at a
"Birthday Party" luncheon in the Field House;
the students ate (as usual) in the Dining Room.

JUNIOR
Mademoiselles Robinson, Barlow, Stanley. Gucker,
Knox, Baehr, and Watkins were leading figures in the
freshmen's scantily clad search for truth.
The content of the 1959 Class Night exhibi-
tions was more-than-usually a taking of stu-
dent-body temperature. The senior class won
the prizes : best show, written by Tim Sheldon
and directed by Phil Miller; best actor, Mickey
Kaback; temperature of the show, an ambigu-
ous 97.5. The juniors ran a fever at first, but
slipped to runner-up ; second-best actor, Greg
Alexander; final temperature, 97.0. The sopho-
mores and freshmen broke their thermometers,
not in a fit of temper, but because the mercury
simply shattered the glass.
For the seniors, Mickey Kaback was a warm,
charming, and disarming Woodrough-like.
Godot-type Haverford tramp ; he carried his
well-Fryed monologue with dignity and hu-
manity. Thayer Willis appeared as an ana-
chronistic Old Testament character, the be-
nignity of his beard as false as the beard itself
was real. The ultimate acceptance of Life at
the end of the show was represented by the
emptying of what had appeared to be the Milk
Bottle of Knowledge, but which in fact proved
to be a bottled diploma. Whatever the meaning
of the symbolism, it was not happy.
The juniors also turned out an excellent
show, written by Greg Alexander, Browny
Speer, and Dud Summers, directed by the last.
and performed with distinction by Werner
Muller, Alexander, Truman Bullard, and Glenn
McCurdy. Their burlesques of individuals had
some of the warmth that understanding confers
upon mockery, and even in the pianissimo exit
of the model "Job" Muller, there seemed to
remain some possibility that a college educa-
tion might not be a total waste of a man's time.

ties, the Social Sciences, the Natural Sciences,

The .show avoided the dirtiness of Caulfield's
disillusionment, but failing to capture either
Salinger's humor or ultimate percipience, it
exploded in bitterness.
On the whole, all of the shows seemed to
view academic life as a whited sepulchre;
whether this was a reflection on the students
themselves or on the Faculty or on the world,
the shows did not say. Although Class Night is
not intended to provide such answers, it should

and vice-president Bob Lynn catch treasurer Phil
Krone taking full advantage of the new Barclay lounge.
The Class of 1962 arrived at Haverford
eager to show that it, too, was capable of
achieving fame and honor. After surviving the
loving care of the Customs men and defending
themselves against the depredations of those
perennial nemeses, the sophomores, the red-
capped freshmen finally decided that college
wasn't so bad after all and settled down to
work.
Those long hours of labor, interrupted only
by intermittent water fights directed from the
new Barclay lounge, were quite rewarding:
the class gained a high overall average and
placed seven members in the charmed Circle 90.
Having breadth as well as depth, the men of
'62 were also active in non-academic pursuits.
Freshmen were active in athletics, and the
Freshman Glee Club (one of the largest ever)
at one time boasted some sixty members.
The most outstanding example of the Rhinie
spirit was the Freshman Weekend in February,
advertised as a post-exam recuperation affair.
Most members of the committee-con.scious class
were involved in the preparation for the week-
end, which emerged a singular success. A small
but significant profit of ten dollars was ample
reward for the labors of the industrious
freshmen.
Another aspect of the Rhinie enthusiasm was
manifested in the Class Night show — a
caustic, and in some instances, competent
Holden Caulfieldesque view of Haverford.
Spectators were surprised to see the search for

SOPH APATHY SUCCUMBS TO FRUSTRATION
As freshmen we were considered "apa-
thetic," but through the mysterious and won-
drous working of sophomoric sophistication we
achieved a new high this year : We became "dis-
illusioned." The results of the News's sopho-
more poll "proved" this fact absolutely ('cause
it's "scientific"). But that's not all this nifty
poll pointed out about us. Still more important,
we believe that Haverford is making us into
"Half-Men" — though no one is quite sure what
a "Half-Man" is. Our Class Night show, A Host
of Rebel Angels, was a graphic expression of
this "disillusionment," for we depicted Haver-
ford as a hell of pure academics.
It was, of course, with tears (of joy) that we
emigrated from the fraternal, if somewhat
moist, cells of Barclay and streamed into the
quiet, proper, pillared halls of Lloyd. With our
move, however, came a change in our "class
character" : We stopped water fighting, paiiy-
ing, dating, sleeping, and smiling. Under the
influence of "pressure" we came to devote our
energies to a more esoteric enterprise : study-
ing. And as the sophomore toddles about our
fair campus, he can be heard to chant,
Bnjn Maivr girls I do not care for,
Knowledge is my new-found WJierefore:
Lectures, Notes, Examinations,
Nifty, Nifty Calculations —
These are the joys of the sophomore's life,

JUNIORS PRUNED BY FACULTY SHEARS
The motley, simian crew clinging to the
trees is the Class of 1960. This beautiful
creation of nature has not been impervious to
time, for it has been badly decimated since its
beginning. From an original 122 innocents it
has dwindled to approximately 85 skeptics, of
whom only 75 are charter members.
Inspired by last year's Class Night success,
The disreputable officers of the smallest and most
disreputable class: secretary Alexander, president
Speer, treasurer Hayter, vice-president Miller.
the wide-ranging juniors branched out in a new
direction, but only to be runner-up. This year's
show was born a Biblical drama and developed
into a gentle sneer at the insensitivity of an
encysted administration heart. Much to the
surprise of the show's writers, the satire of
last year's production was reported to have
been replaced by disillusionment this year.
The other great undertaking of 1958-59 was
the Junior Dance. To the chagrin of old guard
seniors, it was held in the Gym, where lavish
decorations were skillfully executed by the
"Extravaganza Committee": a waterfall bathed
in blue light, with an ar+ful ceiling of 250
pounds of genuine Spanish moss. The dance was
the class's gift to the College for this year,
since a negative profit was realized.
The Class of '60 has made its home in the

SOPHISTICATED TRAMPS SOON TO RETIRE
As a class, some seniors are sorry that the
final spring term has come; others can't wait
to have it pass. Some are concerned about June
weddings, others concerned over prolonged
bachelorhood, and still others just generally
concerned. But it is a happy class — only 20 /i
of 20 V' of its members being unhappy. It is
a good class too. It was the best class in history
when it came, and IVIac will probably praise it
as being the best ever on its departure.
After a year as integrated Rhinies, the class
fled the conformity of its Barclay nest and in-
vaded the upperclass sanctuaries . . . this year
the seniors are mostly in Leeds. Lonely and left
out sometimes, they carry on their work in
splendor. The class has lost mo.st of its extreme
individuals, but those who remain add spice
to the Haverford diet. The class has been frus-
trated too, for though it has artists, Haverford
will tolerate little art, and though it has great
economists, no one has money to inve.st. But
the physicists lived more comfortably, perched
on their atomic pile, unmindful of the biolo-
gists w'ho warn of terrifying mutations in com-
ing generations.
The class has had its serious moments —
fraternal oath taking and class meetings. It
has had its jubilant moments — two Class
Night victories and Robin Hood. This year's
show searched allegorically for knowledge. It
was greeted by religion's soul-penetrating stare
and science's arid dis.sertations and was teased
by a milk bottle held just out of reach. But the
performance rose far above the immature bit-
terness of lower class authors and gave depth
to an evening of "disillusioned" shows.
On the athletic fields the class had varying
degrees of success. Some of its intramural
teams didn't always show up . . . Init then again
the .seniors take with them half of the football
team when they leave.
The Class of '59 is appi-eciative of what
Haverford has done, though it did not manage
to squeeze the orange as dry as it would have
liked. There are many books unread, many
prol)lems unsolved ; many courses untaken and
two Meetings and Collections per semester un-
attended. There are even some girls at Bryn
Mawr who remain undated . . . There are many
things left undone, but the class leaves with
gratitude, knowing that it is not perfect, but
that Haverford tried.
The dig'iiity of the senior class officers reflects the
maturity of their years: treasurer Lowenthal, secretary
Green, president Engelhardt, vice-president Brewster.
A study in resignation: The intensely interested senior
class listens attentively to Pearl Buck's diatribe on the
value of women. The smiles indicate that there are only
62 minutes till lunch.
JACK ALEXANDER
Jack has attempted to cut the Haverford version of the
Gordian knot by laboring continually in several fields at once
and stretching time into something which could contain both
him and his work. He has studied politics and activated the
Caucus Club, studied literature and organized the Arts Council,
"studied" fraternities and instigated the "anti-society" com-
mittee. A history major, Jack found great comfort in the
Romans, whose intellectual order and skill with Latin created
a kinship which spans the ages. Studying the dark and light
places of the Middle Ages, he has tried to develop the scholarly
qualities required by Mr. MacCaffrey. According to Jack's
acquaintances, his intellectual acuity and pre-eminent hu-
mility are rivaled only by his genuine sympathy for his friends.

PETER H. ARMSTRONG
Red-faced from a healthy Army life and not (necessarily)
dissipation, Pete is almost as neat as J. D. Miller, who lives
across the hall. A clean-cut all-American with that half-woods-
man, half-choirboy look, he is evenly-dispositioned in spite of
red hair and general floridity. Lacking a "characteristic"
posture, Pete has several : In the morning on his way to classes
he evolves a stride that is an amazing combination of trot
and shuffle, while at parties he clatters up and down stairs
seemingly without letting his feet touch the ground. Having
returned from the Army with an oddly-tailored but beautiful
kimono (?) — made for him by a Japanese maid — Pete gets
along well in this shot-from-a-gun Quaker Oat Haverford.

FREDERICK C. BERTOLET
It took Fred two years to become disillusioned with
physics ; and immediately he replaced one illusion with another
by sneaking out the back door of Sharpless and in the front
door of Hilles. An astute critic of science courses and their
professors, he thought he saw in Hilles the answer to his
dream of worthwhile subjects. (He had already passed cal-
culus without attending classes.) But life in the dorm was
Fred's downfall: he could not fight Founders as well as he
could harmonize with Hilles. With a yen for the quiet life next
to the Paoli local, he left the din of E. B. White's typewriter
for a cozy house behind the Penn Fruit Co. With a head for
learning and a heart for mirth, Fred will gladly leave the
Haverford illusion far behind when he invades the best gradu-
ate school that brains can buy.

WILLIAM R. BINGHAM
Bill could no longer afford tires, so he moved onto the
Welsh Tract to spend his senior year. Now, at dusk on black
Fridays, his chains rattle up the linoleum corridors of
Founders, whereupon he gently slams down his vital clipboard,
removes his glasses, and tills the air with quiet curses, avoiding
the bedroom window which looks out onto the science mauso-
leum across campus. Having reached the polar moment of
inertia, he is then likely to drive westward — this gourmet
of Main Line diners — to eat out his soul and regain his sense
of humor. Bill dreams of being another Pierre Boulle, worships
Dostoyevsky, and avoids Bryn Mawr. After four years of
engineered slavery. Bill now anticipates a dissipated — but
enjoyable — life of debauchery and moral corruption.

D. RIDGELY BOLGIANO
Ridge, emerging from his pile of terminal strips and
relays, is often seen heading towards the roof of Sharpless,
where he spends his time sending up balloons to chase the
satellites. A physics major, Ridge took three years out from his
Haverford education to spend some time with the Army in
Japan. From this adventure he returned with an amazing
knowledge of Geisha girls and a supply of government radio
parts. When he's not telling wide-eyed freshmen about the
golden days of WHRC, Ridge can be found in the Dining Room
long after it has closed, drawing a circuit for an I.B.M. 650 on
the tablecloth. Although Ridge's inventive genius has already
produced an automatic ashtray-emptier, law school may yet
lure him from the field of electronics.

JOHN GURDON BREWSTER
Gurdon came to Haverford intending to be a healer of
bodies. He leaves now to be a healer of souls. A major in re-
ligious philosophy, he admires Albert Schweitzer; an able
sculptor, he considers opera to be the highest form of art.
Moving through and beyond a welter of class, Council, and
committee offices, Gurdon progressed as easily from the lowly
rooms of Barclay to the intermediate haven of Lloyd to palatial
residence in Leeds. Here he resigned himself to that benign
contemplation of the passing college scene which seniors are
wont to indulge in. As there are professionals in athletics, so
there are pros in life. You can always spot them : they make it
look easy.

EDWIN G. BROWN
Ed came to Haverford from Dickinson three years ago,
(1) because he wished for a greater academic challenge and
(2) because it was becoming increasingly difficult for him
to bum cigarettes. Some of his fellow chem majors, wondering
how Ed winds up at the top with his atrocious study habits,
have tried to duplicate his success by grinding for exams on
the table-tops at Tenth Entry. A somewhat cosmopolitan citi-
zen on the campus, Ed can usually be found in a variety of
rooms, none of them his own. He is always welcome, though,
whenever a mediocre "fourth" is needed for bridge, and he
is considered the terror of the touch football team. The chem-
istry department, however, views his parting with mixed
emotions : "Damn, there goes another potential chemist off to
med school!"

ling. Among his friends Bruce is known as an unparalleled ego-
destroyer ("Bruce, why are you so obnoxious tonight?") as
well as an avid member of the wrestling team who enjoys off-
season practice sessions on the living room floor. Occasionally
he takes time out to write a paper for Red Somers and Com-
pany, making phone calls to Bryn Mawr between paragraphs.
Bruce now heads for law school, leaving behind the mark of an
original personality and taking with him the room's deck of
cards and his dart board.

Upon David's return to Haverford this year, his room-

Nothing could be gleaned from conversations with him, be-
cause he immediately settled down to work. If Dave was
needed for anything, he could be found either in the deep dark
recesses of the physics basement, huddled over an X-ray ma-
chine, or in the vicinity of his room (most likely asleep).
Throughout the semester people wondered about a certain
ring in his possession. Then one day, with the arrival of a
package from Honolulu bearing all the characteristics of a
large photograph, the mystery of Dave's added charm was
unveiled. Now, anyone looking for him should go first to his
room, since Dave will be busy for the next several months in-
specting the new addition to his dresser.

Amonj? the sumptuous splendors of a third floor Yarnall
suite may be found a bagpipe and two Indian teeth belonging
to a realistic sociologist. Not caring for the gracious living of
his roommate, yet too secure to move out, Jay prefers the
floor to the Waldorf-Astoria bed and the cold chill of a library
carrel to the warm and inviting fire. It is rumored that Ira's
profound influence awakened in Jay latent desires to cast
aside this ivory tower for the more realistic and earthly
elements of the Philadelphia slums. Still unsatisfied, a year in
Dublin expounding Quaker-Catholicism to the astounded na-
tives led him iiack to Chase and Ira's guiding light. Now,
imbedded in sociological surveys, this likeable, carefree chap
delights his classes with homespun theories sprinkled with
practical experience and memories of Haverford's past.

visited the campus for classes and meals and was sometimes
seen running from the College police with pieces of a blue
motor scooter. As a sophomore Dan moved on campus, only
to get tangled up in the powers-that-be at WHRC. His junior
year began with a struggle between a station managership and
a physics major. After a semester, however, he traded the
station managership for a red convertible, saddle shoes, and
a certain interest at Bryn Mawr. As a senior the physics
major fought hard, but not quite successfully, to dominate the
other interests. Dan's future is a matter of s^ieculation —
there is some talk of engineering graduate school — but wher-
ever he goes, his red convertible and Brooks Brothers clothes
will accompany him.

for the change. Although the ec department receives most of
his attention, poli sci and English projects are favored too.

ALAN J. CONCORS
Al, better known to his friends as "Morris Katz," came
to Haverford as a representative of the Atlantic City Beach
Patrol. Between football, baseball, intramural basketball, and
the gymnasium scale, however, Morris had little time to exhibit
his swimming skills in our Olympic-size bathtub. An avid
connoisseur of Haverford food, Morris soon discovered The
Blue Comet, Bobby's, Barson's. ... A keen interest in inter-
national aifairs led Al to the French department, but the
attraction of the "ziontist" movement proved insurmountable ;
hence his exodus to Sharpless. Food, athletics, intellectual
curiosity — in that order — keynote Morris' four years here.
And when his little blue Ford drives out to Lancaster Avenue
for the last time, Morris will leave behind The Pentagon Club,
Haverford's third "beer-drinking" society.

he now resides in a trailer. With his knowledge of the stock

— while being supported by his wife — and has started to
pyramid his meagre resources. (The Neios and Record profited
similarly from his talents.) Now, with one wedding anniver-
sary already behind him, John's graduate school will consist
either of the terrors of the market or in building his own

creature of habit — for instance, the 1950 vintage maroon
corduroy coat seen almost every day — he managed to stay
in Founders for three years straight. He also survived six

assuredly not the hospital and college in the neighboring town.
His bedroom voice was sublimated to the Dining Room and

deist with invincible Southern reasoning. He has, with a con-
descending sarcasm, straddled the sciences and mental quack-
ery of Haverford, often boarding buses for Goucher College.
A solid friend to everybody. Bill has sociologically scanned

The appearance of Pete's hot red Ford illegally parked

on the basketball court or in a baseball uniform. A superb
natural athlete with remarkable speed and agility, Pete's com-
posure and soft-spoken leadership merited him captaincies in
two sports and a reputation of being invaluable, if not spec-
tacular, in both. Extraordinary hand-to-eye coordination has
also earned for him unofficial recognition as number one man
among Haverford's still less official dart-shooters. A four-
year day student, Pete is Haverford's unique pre-med sociolo-
gist. Capitalizing on these broad interests, Pete will un-
doubtedly solve a longstanding problem in medicine by proving
socio-economic factors to be the cause of the common cold.

Living a double life, Warner spends most of his time

studying physics. The schisms of his split personality are
reconciled only when he performs his experiments of Force
and Motion with Lionel trains and erector sets on the living

outstanding trait — a very stubborn nature — which might
almost be considered a tragic flaw. Perhaps the most notable
effect of this idiosyncracy was his purchase of a '48 Ford for
$75, in which he subsequently replaced every moving part.
Similarly he has acquired an overly extensive library, which
certainly secures his future, if not as a physicist, at least
as a lending librarian.

only by inclement weather, which produces racket swinging,

distraction of his long-suffering roommates. Music also claims
Bill's attention — that of others as well during his bathroom
clarinet practice sessions — and he has bettered musical re-
lations between Bryn Mawr and Haverford through weekly
orchestral practice sessions. Needless to say, however, his
interest in Bryn Mawr is not confined to music. The telephone
often replaces the clarinet as Bill's wind instrument in his

aromatic Middleton 5. He has found time to sing every Sunday
with the Bryn Mawr Pre.sbyterian Choir and regularly attends
sessions of the Student Christian Movement. Sampling the
offerings of many academic disciplines, Will has settled on
the philosophy department in anticipation of a theological
career. It all adds up to a very liberal education.

JOHN D. GRESIMER II
Emerging from the wilds of northwestern Pennsylvania
for a taste of city life, John has spent four years sampling
the joys of the Glee Club and the sociology department. After
leaving very old Founders in favor of very new Leeds midway
through his academic career, John soon realized the culmina-
tion of his expectations after venturing to Lankenau. It seems
that he and a nurse got well mixed at a mixer. At least it
has been said that she is a nurse. Since she is frequently seen
at Haverford, maybe he is comfortably sick without anyone's
knowing it. Nevertheless, the day after graduation he and
Evie plan to begin his future business career by marriage.

LAWRENCE S. GRIFFITH
Impressed with the frequent appearance of the name
Griffith on committee and athletic lists, the Dean decided to
parlay Larry's intensive work in the political science depart-
ment into a med school acceptance at Rochester. Meanwhile,
it was with intrigue that his friends observed Larry's extended
interpretation of the Council's definition of Festive Weekend.
With keen interest they also noted his integrity in keeping to
strict training regulations before this year's Swarthmore foot-
ball game. As expected, these six days prior to the game —
spent with a Wellesley miss — reflected Larry's continental
and cosmopolitan attributes acquired during a summer abroad
and four years at Haverford.

JEFFREY K. HECHT
Jeff's Phi Beta Kappa aspirations went out the window
during his freshman year, when he discovered the existence
of three other bridge players on campus. As Haverford's
bridge czar, he serves as president of the Bridge Club, bridge
columnist for the Xeirg. and generally unparalleled expert at
the game — disilluisioned aspirants to his crown describe Jeff
as "the man who plays like Univac." Breaking away from the
Leeds Bridge Parlor, Jeff occasionally visits the all-too-acces-
sible chem building, where he takes cigarette breaks in the
men's room as often as he takes melting points in the lab.
As a senior, Jeff's main concern is not passing comps, but
rather selecting one of the many graduate schools eagerly
bidding for his services.

ELLIOTT M. HEIMAN
For several years Elliott's roommates tolerated his paint-
ings only because they covered the cracks in the walls of two
Lloyd suites. In Leeds there were no cracks, but by this time
his painting had improved, and the canvasses were allowed
to stay. Elliott's first love may have been philosophy, but he
imbibed the wisdom of Freud and Heath to probe more deeply
into the Bryn Mawr mind. As captain of the fencing team,
our Cyrano de Bergerac has come to the "rescue" of countless
young damsels. Weary and exhausted from ^many battles,
however, Elliott has decided to put down the foil and take up
the scalpel instead. For the next four years, he will be psy-
choanalyzing all of the cadavers at Jefferson.

R. LEE HOBAUGH
Lee returned to the Haverford campus a few years ago —
no one is quite sure when — after a brief and inspiring tenure
in the Army. Although he still hasn't found the two-cent error
in his checking account, he is a promising young economist,
eager to blaze his trail in life and someday return to the
Haverford campus as a member of the economics department.
Lee's extracurricular activities consist of arranging "schlitzen-
fests" for his friends (providing that there are no conflicts
with the precepts of the Council), intramural touch football,
Roland, and Bobby's questionable delicacies. He departs from
Haverford leaving a legacy of sophisticated advice in the
form of Bryn Mawr telephone numbers and English barbar-
isms — the 1938-59 Rhinie Bible.

PAUL HODGE
Having abruptly uprooted himself for a quick two-year
military sojourn, a more seasoned edition of Paul Hodge re-
appeared upon the Haverford lawns this fall to add some iin-
ishing touches to his college career. Paul's second time around
the academic pinwheel has been by no means uneventful,
despite his more mature approach to the pitfalls of college
life. An acteur formidable ■ — ■ or so they called him in Paris —
his efforts in the Drama Club have continued unabated. Some-
times projecting his stage work to the classroom, Paul's bits
and bites have livened up many a pedantic session. Though
unable to repeat his 1956 performance of scoring three goals
against Temple, Paul's 1958 contribution to varsity soccer
was certainly refreshing, if not always skillful. Besides, every
team needs a few Ail-Americans !

DAVID E. HORAN
Dave the Unknown, the ofF-campus philosopher who
rarely philosophizes, is one of the few sportsmen whose accur-
acy with darts varies directly with the warmth of his stomach.
Selling his 1928 Ford as a 1948 model to an unsuspecting
physicist, Dave added to his junior year income, having re-
placed the original battery with one from a motor scooter as
an extra bonus. Returning from the West with a wife, Dave
settled down, in typical beat-philosopher manner, on Mont-
gomery Avenue with floor-to-ceiling dart boards and wall-to-
wall mattressing. In philosophic terms, the essence of the
shoes Dave wore for the greater part of his college career is
now bottled in the chemistry lab for the benefit of posterity.
Yet Dave maintains that there is nothing better than OLD
TENNIS SHOES.

JOHN H. HORNBAKER, JR.
During his career at Haverford, John has always remained
faithful to the cause of science, but only recently was lured
across campus from the chem building to the biology depart-
ment. Arriving in Sharpless, he staked out his desk in Mrs.
Green's office where his senior project consists of keeping its
occupants blushing. A scientist through and through, John
even applies the scientific approach to his pipe smoking, as
anyone who has ever witnessed him mixing his own special
tobacco will readily understand. Never tiring of telling jokes,
even if they sometimes become repetitious, John is usually at
his best at the beginning of the school year after revising his
repertoire through a summer job in a hospital operating room.
As might be expected, John is headed for Hopkins Med School
next year.

HENRY HORWITZ
One of two delinquents in the Tenney Home for Wayward
Children, Henry entered Haverford inauspiciously, but soon
resolved himself into a noted debauchee. Turning half-heart-
edly to scholarship he sold his soul to Somers and MacCaffrey,
who found in him a perfect goat for their latent sadism. Pos-
sessed of an incredible fondness for useless minutiae, Henry
is reputed to know verbatim every Parliamentary debate since
Disraeli. But tragedy finally struck our scholar, and a Bryn
Mawr geology course downed him in his prime. Now, dressed
in nankeen breeches, this tiny gnome spends hours hacking
away with his geology pick at the gneissic rock in Radnor. He
still cherishes the hope of Oxford and often sings of it on
moonlit nights after finishing the tiny bowl of milk set out
for him by Miss McBride.

GARRY HYATT
Arriving from Bryn Athyn in the fall of '57, Garry began
two years of intermittent pilgrimages between Haverford and
his Swedenborgian sweetheart. Although he had difficulties
at times in meeting his toll payments, he managed to maintain
a perfect record of never spending a weekend at Haverford.
It is fortunate that commencement is on a Friday so that
lovable old Gar will be able to pick up his .sheepskin. Although
it is rumored that Hyatt is a legend in Bryn Athyn athletic
circles, Haverford has yet to witness his first coordinated
move. Actually Garry is one of Haverford's few English
majors ever to hit the intramural basketball circuit. Despite
his late arrival on campus, Garry's likable personality will
always be remembered by his close friends (especially those
who u.sed his empty room on weekends to put up vagrants and
hapless damsels).
RICHARD JACKSON
Coming ail the way from Erie, Dick .sought only a college
with a liberal arts flavor and a not-too-weak chemi.stry depart-
ment. But after two very commonplace years in Barclay, he
moved to 84 Lloyd. There, dates galore ! To be sure, life was
a bit communal, and the work load began to pile up, but that
was all right. He'd already led the Debating Society through a
year of non-protectionism and had fiddled with the Orchestra.
Most important, he'd switched to physics and, by the time he
reached Leeds, had developed a routine : After digesting one
pile of Louis Green notes, he'd call B.M.C., announce the re-
sults, and return to the Contemplation of the Unsolved For-
mula. Although Dick's heading for grad .school and teaching,
we hope he preserves his humanistic bent.

Arriving- at college each fall from Schenectady, Al has
always converted his room, by means of sun lamp, photographs

Lake George. He has split his summer months between hunt-
ing chucks from his cabin in the Adirondacks and chicks from
his life-guard chair on the lake front. His winter months have
been divided between studying political science and economics
by day and TV westerns by night. One thing else has been
prominent in "Swish" Johnson's four years here : his athletic
career cannot be minimized. Giving up possible chances to
play with the Celtics or Warriors, Al has decided on law

the bongos and drums, Mickee found civilization — a lost one,
but nevertheless civilization. Being an all-round boy, he
has starred not only as a student, but as a Thespian, debater,
questioner, and athlete as well. With his aggressive, scrappy
nature, Mickee introduced a completely new idea to Haverford
football — the forward pass — a weapon he used here with
unprecedented skill. A strong supporter and follower of the
Sharpless "ziontist" movement (also known as the biology de-
partment), Mickee must now leave behind the Pentagon Club
on his journey to Penn Med School.

frame sprawled over a sofa, surrounded by a telephone, Wall
Street Journal, putter, and golf balls — all symbols of a young
and rising plutocrat. In his hands is a mutilated copy of a
Bryn Mawr freshman directory. As is evident, Dave is one
to keep up on current events. At the end of his sophomore
year, he decided against spending his junior year in Wall
Street. This affirmed the suspicion that Dave's future interests
might extend beyond mere capital gains to academic disciplines.

sometimes as official soloist, other times as not. Between

entering his room during wrestling season is subject to a

With his suave manner, chic appearance, and unlimited

one of Haverford's finest public relations men to nearby Bryn
Mawr and Harcum ; his popularity in both schools has been
unanimous. Besides playing the role of Don Juan, Phil has
been a member of highest standing in the "ziontist" depart-
ment in Sharpless, carrying on deep research in immunology
and more notably just carrying on. Activity-wise Phil was a
promising halfback on the Haverford eleven until sidelined
by an injury. Undaunted, however, he merely exchanged his
football helmet for a basketball and continued to display his
athletic prowess. A charter member of the Pentagon Club, Phil
was co-author with Melvin Coznowski in their famous Tales of

technique which insures him the title of best rabbit-heart
bleeder on campus. Unfortunately his experiments with female
hearts have not fared quite so well. After innumerable trips
to New England during his sophomore year, he soon came
down to earth and ended up by taking several psychology
courses to understand completely his frustrations. Rather
than ponder the problem further at this point. Bob has decided
to lose himself in four years of med school.

a noisy blue Studebaker. Delia, their first child, has survived

Lauve member of the class of '80 is expected in April, as this

vating the Malthusian predicament, however, and he displays
a great Lauve of literature. His sensitivity to Haverford values
has resulted in his planning teaching as a career, as well as his
near-acceptance of Quakerism as a way of life.

for his Rhinie cap. Although Rich has since given up the
fantastic study habits of his freshman year, he is still known
as a serious student. Coming to Haverford as a dedicated pre-
med. he was soon lured away from his goal by the more soul-
satisfying study of English literature. In athletics he has
proved that form is not always a prerequisite for success,
continually astounding both his coaches and the opposition
with his uncanny ability to win. Similarly Rich has yet to
find his peer at Haverford in either ping-pong or checkers.

Hiding behind a simple name is a man of boundless depth

spectator, the head cheerleader is a spontaneous life-of-the-
party collegian. But if one looks closely into Jim's face, bravely
enduring each Quaker cheer, he sees an image of Christlike
suffering. Jim is a Dostoyevsky man of the Underground, a
living duality, excruciatingly sensitive to life's paradoxes.
Each weekend he writhes in his room, facing the metaphysical
problems of the current British lit paper with intellectual
honesty that sometimes drives him to disaster. Still, his curio.s-
ity is not confined to the academic world : Each month he
makes an excursion into Ardmore to pick up the latest copy of

counters with mathematics and economics, Harry found his
niche in the English department. There his outstanding con-
tributions consisted of providing Jack Lester with material
to teach his freshmen and giving John Ashmead a chance to
use his red crayon. Personality-wise Harry has two valuable
offerings. One is the constant smile which he keeps in the
face of such disasters as being defeated in a wrestling match.
The other is the great supply of home-town laughs with which

Bitterness set in, however, upon the realization that he was
growing old and impotent in the musty dens of the chem lab,
where the sun never sets on the test tubes. Longing to learn
the seductive techniques of Faust, Gordon sold his soul to the
German department. For a while his youthful "appetites"
were satisfied at Dr. Pf und's house ; but then he discovered
that organic chemistry was necessary to understand the
nefarious practices of Faust. So, back to the chem lab again !
For his sins against the sciences, he is resigned to going down,

Vic likes to travel, and numerous friends and relatives make it

His room, by its size and disorder, seemed to denote the
cosmos, and by its mantle adornments — a Venus, a bottle, and
a shoe — the appropriate symbols by which the vital forces
are expressed. Even a year in France failed to change Bill
— an inflexible lover of poetic reality. As beards have come

The statistical nature of this materialistically oriented

lieve his roommate's assertion that they have been livinu: in
a Platonic cave. The Maudlin nature of their relationship has,
at times, been characterized by a conflict of interests, Tony's
theory being that Plato could and should be relegated to the
lower regions as long as a more advantageous dating pattern
results. But reason must be the final judge of both the quality
and quantity of pleasure necessary for a well-balanced .social
diet. In other words, when the philosophical aspects of the
law of diminishing returns are applied to the law of supply
and demand, theory breaks down and the fact remains that
dating is not Platonic.

too conspicuous, and he seemed instead to be an alumnus
amazed by campus changes. In the spring following his

proving to be a real asset as a southpaw pitcher with plenty

Frank has had to consider problems more basic, and it is
rumored that he is planning to write the college outline on
"The Meaning of Life" when he graduates. First, though, he
may have to touch on a few ultimates himself for background.

the solitary introvert whose mental strength is coupled with
bodily weakness, George's performance on the wrestling mat
completely destroys this image. His happy balance of mind,

to Mexico. Word has it that he left the senorita speechless
("She never did answer that letter!"). Earning the title of
"Golden Toe" with his excellent conversions for the J.V. Fords,
Hugh's attraction to football was probably not the love of
sport, but rather the training rules w'hich gave him a motive

FREDERICK HALBACH MERZ
Just beyond the prep school library stacks lies a picture
gallery, representing in tableau form the history of Western
art. Frederick Halbach Merz wandered into this gallery one
day, spied an etching of Wolfram von Eschenbach, and began
to think . . . For a time he listened to organ music in the best
Gothic cathedrals. Then he began to read Nietzsche, Schiller,
even Goethe and Schopenhauer. Seminars were held, with
Faust and Siegfried leading the dialogue. Christ and Caesar
often closed their village bar for the evening to attend. Then
there were the watercolors of Rhine Jungfrauen and . . .
Fred still stands looking at the etching of Wolfram von
Eschenbach ; the other tableaus in the gallery are now his own.
At the far end of the corridor is heard laughter. It could be
Tristan and Isolde pouring their second daiquiri — or two
lonely paramecia on a deserted beach.
J. DAVID MILLER
Immutably correct, Dave is forever sweeping and dusting.
Says David with a Charlie Brown sigh, "Top drawer." Top
drawer is the way David looks, and even his eye-shadow-blue
MG is still new. Is he quiet? Only when he graces the mid-
morning air in his yellow terry-cloth robe en route to the
cold place-of-the-brushing-of-teeth. Or when he retires to the
floor before his pigmy hi-fi set. His room is a gathering place
of all sorts — • even for that hermit T. Sheldon who is always
coming in for a bottle-opener. But occasionally, quite un-
expectedly in the midst of a happy bull-session, he orders,
"Shaddap. Everybody out," with an almost imperious gesture.
God bless his bermuda knees.

"I am a beggar, and if poverty be a title to poetry, nobody
can dispute mine." Without hesitation his black-draped Ply-
mouth flies to Bryn Mawr. where in the flash of an eye our
beggar has fallen in love with ten girls at once. But his passion
wanes, and he rushes back to Haverford to take his place in the
palm of Bob Butman's hand. Phil found time in his junior year
to direct a Class Night show that simmered in the leaking pot
of Robin Hood's love for Maid Marian. But somehow, his
artistic taste dissatisfied, he jumped up in the middle of the
show and walked on stage shouting, "Stop! Stop the play!"
And, once in a while. Haverford responds to Phil's insistent
cries and stops, thinks, and tries to find out what it is all about.

Having: observed the typical frustrations over females
which can evolve during four years at Haverford, Jim be-
queathed all his feminine acquaintances to his socially sterile
roommates and prepared himself to enter a profession with a
little more tenure — namely the ministry. The past four years
were not entirely wasted, however, for Jim quite heroically
pushed back the frontiers of ignorance in Biblical literature.
His soccer was also progressing rather nicely, until a fullback
from Mary Washington succeeded in having him thrown out
of the game. Jim regained his status in stride, though, by
smoothly ditching a couple of other admirers and then turned
his pious attention to the twisted little minds of his roommates.

it's his magnetic personality, while others say it's his cookies

towering stained glass window, fumes of Old Spice belch to-
ward the ceiling, announcing eventide and the mystical cele-
bration of the children's cocktail hour. "But are you really in
tune with infinity?" groans the master to the masses of dis-
traught and burdened. "Time present and time pa.st . . .." he
intones from his yellowed, hallowed T. S. Eliot. The proselytes
leave, instilled with peace of mind, and from the closeted con-

he has taught softball at Haverford School, co-edited the

Bob's career at Haverford has been unique and in some
respects indescribable. Spending the major part of his time
engaging in bull sessions, haphazardly participating in ath-

the death grip of the Academic Standing Committee. A
frequent visitor to 104 Leeds, he claims that he comes to read
the morning paper ; but his real purpose is simply to entice
Bruce into another ridiculous argument. Majoring in English
has made Bob a constant critic of contemporary society, and
he enjoys conducting early morning seminars at the Blue
Comet. There he attempts to convince credulous chemistry
majors that Ricky Nelson will never replace the "Met." Bob's
plans for the future do not project beyond a cultured excur-
sion to Europe in June. After that . . .

clutter up his room with odd rocks (along with Walter's odd

senior class, he is thus the only Haverfordian to have the
privilege of tripping 'round the Maypole at B.M.C. Despite a
tame exterior, Emery is actually an expert skier on snow or
water. His woodsy knowledge and ability, acquired from a
sylvan New Hampshire hideaway, would put many more
"athletic" individuals to shame. Marrying a red-headed blue

a strong impression on him — and his roommates as well, who
have been thoroughly indoctrinated to the strains of the
cha-cha-cha and meringue. Tiger also has the social distinction
of being the only Haverfordian on record to import a weekend

he is better known athletically for his sufl!"ering loyalty to the

of infirmary visits. Spring seasons were occupied by wildly
pitched baseballs and nervous batters. Leaving the political
science department behind, Ted plans to spend the next four

Graduation will reduce Robinson family anxieties at the

that the polo team was more rewarding, because athletics

growth has taken place, for this Californian came to Haver-
ford with excellent study habits, a reverence for education, a
habit of regular hours, and an abstinence from liquor and
tobacco; he leaves with the credit of never having smoked
a cigarette. In addition, he has cultivated a taste for westerns
(which is difficult to reconcile with his staunch pacifism) and
comic strips (with which he communes whenever someone else
is willing to spend a nickel for a Bulletin). Finally, it must
be noted for the record that his first name is Palmer, not

Dr. Comfort, and roommates designed to confuse and educate
a prospective history-Latin major. As a sophomore Charles
moved upstairs one flight and attracted an assembly of musi-
cologists. This situation persisted for two years and proved
to be the destruction of Mr. Thome's arrogance for certain
types of music. Capitalizing on Bryn Mawr's curriculum and

he needed to get a Phi Beta Kappa key. But during the second
two years he gave up that project and spent his time deciding
whose car he could borrow to drive over to Bryn Mawr and
bring Sue back to Leeds. Leaving his freshman abode in Bar-
clay, Stu spent his sophomore year in Founders with the
New York Times, wavering between biology and chemistry
as a major, and between medicine and biochemistry for a
career. Spending his junior and senior years in #1 Leeds, he
still wavered between the biology and chemistry departments,
but did finally decide upon medicine as a career.

DEREK B. VAN DUSEN
Great stature, a contemplative expression, and a pipe —
these are Derek's most salient features. Interested in College
activities, as well as academic endeavors, Derek aided WHRC
and the Glee Club for several years. As a history major — one
of that elite group which burns the midnight oil as a matter of
custom — he can be seen preparing lengthy papers on such
erudite topics as "The Second Punic War — its relation to the
Roman Republic" or "The German Unification Policy of Bis-
marck." Derek is conversant about many subjects and is gen-
erally quite willing to engage in an interesting bull session.
A visitor to his Leeds study will find not only a warm welcome
and coflFee waiting, but the son of a Collection speaker as well.

JOHN ROBERT VASTINE
Down the hall, the gentle thunder of rapid feet — silence
while the entity is in motion through the air — CRASH — and
a door or fellow student has been crushed. This is Bob's way
of saying hello, an expression of affection and all-round good
will. Or in his lonelier moments, down the hall of Third Floor
Founders echoes Volare — just once — and a door slams. A
genial, good-natured hedonist. Bob is especially fond of
Rubens, Sunday dinners at Grandma's house, "Aunt Maddie"
(his ill-behaved, black Chevy), and con.servative clothes. The
latter are very seldom seen, though, because he generally
wears faded chinos and a blue Oxford button-down — wrinkled,
of course.

ROBERT O. WEIDMAN
Bob's monastic Yarnall House existence in his freshman
year was broken only occasionally to join his Friends at
Tenth. This monasticism was given up when he decided
that a political scientist must keep up with current events both
on and off campus. Thus he moved on campus with the other
Yarnall "fifty-niners." where he became a showman at the
social functions of 64 Lloyd. A lover of southern climates.
Bob moved to Florida between his junior and senior years,
hoping to retire after three years of hard work He changed
his mind, however, and decided to come back, since he had
not yet paid enough into the Haverford retirement plan to
make him eligible for his retirement bonus — a B.A. degree.
Now Bob plans to complete his work with the Corporation
and then retire to that other world of sunshine and joy.
WILLIAM N. WEST IV
Beneath a quiet, unassuming exterior, his roommates
have found in Bill a lively and good-natured personality.
In his moves from Barclay to Lloyd to Leeds, Bill's roommates
have changed correspondingly, but for all of them the illusion
of a quiet nature has often been shattered by the roar of his
hi-fi set and his spirited "entry" outings with Tiger. Bill's
visits to Tenth have decreased in his senior year, however,
and it is possible that he is actually spending some time bal-
ancing credits and debits for Mr. Teaf . If Bill doesn't make the
grade as an economist, though, his past few summers in
Wyoming have at least assured him of a job as a ranch hand.
Although Bill is not yet certain of his future, his roommates
are and have decided that graduate work at Penn or Villanova
is a necessity.

ELIJAH B. WHITE, III
The man with the twelve-string minstrel complex, E. B.
seethes with paradoxes and nervous twitches. He speaks in
long, intelligent, egotistical monologues, punctuating them
with Spanish and Latin profanity and pausing occasionally
for a magnificent belch. E. B. lives within Eliot's still, small
point, for the universe turns around him — but even this is
paradoxical, because he also treats life as if he were on the
outside of a merry-go-round, grabbing all the rings he can get.
And the ones he doesn't get he claims weren't worth getting.
Rare are those who have seen the genuine beam behind the
mask . . . He and his Bryn Mawr sweatshirt will be missed.

THAYER WILLIS
The possessor of a magnificent beard, Thayer joined the
Class of '59 as a junior. Originally in the Class of '56, he de-
parted to join the Marines and returned armed with a belief
in the value of the Humanities and in the necessity for self-
discipline. Known to his classmates as a charter member of
Tenth Entry's Golden Age Club and of the I. R. A., as well as
a defender of Haverford's libertarian tradition, Thayer es-
caped from campus life to a suite in Miss Tenney's Home for
Wayward Children. Here, awake and alert at almost any hour,
he ceaselessly devoted himself to the explication of Greek
drama, Joycean literature, or the redemption theme in con-
temporary drama. Thayer, after graduation, hopes to return
to his old haunts — the jungles of South America — as a
humble member of the vStaff of the New York Citv Zoo.
NATHANIEL WING
Incapable of telling a lie successfully, as befits a literature
student, Nat has two distinctive means of communication — a
Catamaran and a Humber Hawk ; one rests in Boothbay Har-
bor, the other in New Haven. He will be remembered locally
particularly by Pallas Athena, for it was Nat, Betsy, Paula,
and Mike who helped Athena relieve herself in the Parthenon
at Bryn Mawr. Nat received no bridle in return for his
thoughtfulness, and so he had to struggle while he was at
Haverford. Once the irrelevancies of well-rounded definitions
were dispensed with, Nat settled down to his major interest —
literature. Joyce, Proust and Baudelaire all received his re-
sponsible attention, his papers ranging from good to excellent
and almost always finished the evening before they were due
— a merit not to be belittled.

EDWIN D. WOLF
Repatriated expatriate, student of mankind, and off-
campus dweller, this semi-primitive bachelor is I'ooted behind
a foliage of culture, local apathy, and unmitifrated wholesome-
ness, as his remarkable instincts dictate. With his fondness for
the dialectic, Joyce and Dante emerge as archetypal body and
spirit. Moving under the cloak of divine stigmata, Ned has
manifested extraordinary promise, the exact nature of which
will become evident at a later date. In his luxurious local
residence, argumentative friends quaff chianti and carol and
are sincere. A linguist and playgoer, Ned is reported to have
quid pro quo connections with the Democratic party. Since
he's a dark character, often obstreperous and extreme, his
occasional acts of prudence overwhelm the campus.

HOWARD L. WOLFINGER
Pete is known for a mild, quiet manner, conservative
views, and excellent scholarship. He has placidly observed the
changing Haverford scene from Bai'clay (with fellow Mercers-
berger John Hornbaker) ever since his arrival on campus. Al-
though these past four years have found Pete wandering off
into chemistry and economics, he remains a loyal biology
major, devoting an entire summer to work in Haverford's bio
labs. Noted for his antipathy for cigarette smoke ("a loyal
biology major"), Pete's best-known love is classical music,
an interest manifested by his four-year membership in the Glee
Club. Taking time from his academic endeavors only for re-
hearsals and performances, Pete capitalized on the high grades
he has earned and is oft' to med school (much to the chagrin
of the bio department).

S. ERIK ZAPF
Erik spent most of his freshman year asleep in Yarnall
House. As a sophomore he moved to 64 Lloyd and has re-
mained there ever since. During this time he has been involved
in numerous inconsequential discussions, chess games, and
Saturday night affairs, while keeping late hours and ra-
tionalizing about his academic career. Beginning as a close
disciple of Martin Foss, Erik later discovered Frank Parker's
theory of graduation principles. Now in the twilight of four
philosophic years, Erik's problem seems to be the synthesis of
a few meaning-of-life meditations, along with some more
immediate practicalities. After serving with the Navy, Erik
plans to continue in either English or business. As an incurable
romantic, however, whom not even Haverford could dampen.
Erik's dream of a secret isle somewhere may yet come true.
