College Releases Student Union Plans;
Garfield Club Announces Dissolution

Kahn Criticizes Trustees

For Neglect of Issue;

Ex-Club Men Unite

by Charles Fisher '54

Saturday, Feb. 2— The Garfield
Club went out of existence as a
social unit at midnight, January
31. The college took over the for-
mer Club facilities in Currier Hall
today as a dining hall for non-
affiliates.

The move grew out of the Club's
December resolution to disband
unless positive steps for total
rushing wei'e instituted by the be-
ginning of Spring Term.

Total Rushing League

Following the Club's dissolu-
tion several non-afflUates formed
plans for an organization to carry
on action for total rushing and to
Include non-afniiatcs, students in
fraternities, faculty, and alumni
Interested in reform of the col-
lege social system.

At the same time, former Club
members were given the oppor-
tunity to sign a pledge agreeing to
turn down fraternity bids until
totul i"ui>l*iiiie uii campus 'utcuiiies
a fact. More than 145 non-affili-
ates have signed the agreement.
Club Dissolution

In a Currier Hall meeting last
night, Harold Kahn, '52, president
of the former Garfield Club, offi-
cially dissolved the non-fratem-
Ity organization by a simple de-
claration to that effect in his cap-
acity as president. Following the
declaration, all physical property
of the Club immediately reverted
to the college, owners of Currier
Hall. Beginning with breakfast to-
day, the college undertook the
serving of meals In Currier Hall,
retaining the Club's kitchen staff
and waiters.

Commenting on the Club move,
Kahn termed the idea of the Club
as a strong. Independent social
unit "a social myth" and critic-

Matthews Urges
Ideas in Science

Ideas, Experimentation
Needed for Progress

Thursday. January 31 — Pro-
fessor Samuel A. Matthews of
the Biology Department em-
phasized in a lecture entitled
"Gadgets and Ideas in Science"
the importance of ideas and ex-
perimentation over the develop-
ment of gadgets. Matthews, chair-
man pro tempore of the faculty,
delivered his lecture In the
Thompson Biology Laboratory.

Too many scientists spend their
time playing with gadgets instead
of Investigating and proving
ideas, according to Matthews.
These "push - button scientists"
fall to realize that basic scientific
principles spring from ideas and
not from doodads. Although these
devices are useful and necessary
tools, they must not be given pri-
mary importance, but must be
relegated to their proper position.

After developing his idea by
pointing out the achievements of
men who worked through experl^
mentation, Matthews closed by
saying that gadgets have provided
new methods of precision and are
of tremendous value. Ideas, how-
ever, should be proven by experi-
ment with the aid of gadgets for
true scientific advance.

Ex-Club Men on Spring Street

President lOmeritu.s Hul Kann 'S2 reads the Adviser from the
steps uf Mike's College Restaurant,

Non-Affiliates Assemble on Spring
Street for Post-Dissolution Lunch

Friday, Feb. 1— In a mass ilemonstration, the members of the
cx-Gariield (Mub unanimously t-liose the two Spring Street eating
emporiums, Mike's and the Gym Lunch, for their first meals as
non-affihates today.

Tlie crowd reached its |)eak sliortly after twelve o'clock.
Amid flashing cameras and loud applause, Hal Kahn, '52, on the
steps of Mike's, read the Adviser to the assembled throng.

Positive Step ^ '-

Kahn summed up the situation
in these words: "As of this mom-

ent we haven't been told person-
ally by the college about the food
situation, and we've come to the
only two places left for us. We'll
have to eat here until we get fur-
ther word from the administra-
tion. If they tell us their plans
about feeding us, we'll definitely
cooperate in every way."

Matt Markotlc, '52, approving
the student downtown gathering,
said, "I see this as a positive step
showing the unity of the non-
sifllUates -Nmii-is-thcJ^i m f ^''- -fur-
ther definite action. Continuation
under this system is impossible."
Situation Unsatisfactory

Sam Humes, '52 felt that: " So
tar, the college has given no in-
dication as to eating facilities. The
situation is very unsatisfactory,
nor do I look to the prospect of
communal eating. I am disap-
pointed in the college's inadequate
action."

Ted Cochinos and Jack Rose
were heard to say: "We'd like to
see this every day, and we'll give
them what they're looking for.
We just wish they wouldn't come
down in a body. We will be open
breakfast, lunch, and supper. We
re prepared so there'll be no
waiting."

Rev, Cole Chosen
As New Chaplain

Smith College Minister
To Begin Next Term

The Trustees recently armounc-
ed that the Rev. Mr. William G.
Cole will replace Acting Chaplain
Claude Roebuck as Williams Col-
lege Chaplain. Mr. Cole is pres-
ently Chaplain and Assistant Pro-
fessor of Religion at Smith Col-
lege and will begin his work here
next fall.

Besides his work at Smith, Mr,
Cole has done chaplain's work at
Western Reserve and Columbia
University. He is married, and has
three sons aged nine, five, and
two. His extra-curricular activi-
ties include golf, singing, and
playing several roles in Smith
theatrical productions.

bia University and Union Semi-
nary, plans to receive his PhX).

Gargoyle, i4fnfcerst Honor Society
Discuss Williams' Social Difficulties

Callaghan Lists Problems

Of Deferred Rushing;

Foehl Outlines Plans

Amherst, Feb. 4— Amherst Pres-
ident Charles Cole and Williams
Treasurer Charles A. Foehl, Jr.,
were the principal speakers at the
annual Gargoyle-Scarab dinner to-
night at the Lord Jeff Inn, in the
absence of Williams President
James P. Baxter. III. who was
unable to attend.

Discussion at the meeting cen-
tered on recent developments in
the fraternity situation at Wil-
liams. Mr. Foehl reviewed the
problem here and outlined the
plan of the trustees for deferred
rushing, freshman dining, and a
Student Union building, while
President Cole explained the Am-

herst system of deferred rushing.
Callaghan Speaks

William D. Callaghan '52, presi-
dent of Gargoyle, spoke on the
pros and cons of deferred rushing.
Howard Burnett, president of
Scarab, acted as toastmaster and
opened the meeting to informal
discussion at the conclusion of the
talks.

Scarab is the senior honorary
society at Amherst, and its re-
quirements for membership and
services to the college closely
parallel those of the Gargoyle So-
ciety at Williams. The custom of
annual meetings between these
two groups was established in or-
der to provide an opportunity for
an interchange of ideas on current
problems. The place of meeting
alternates each year between Wil-
liams and Amherst.

Saturday, Feb. 9- The Buildings anil Ground Gommittee of the
Hoard of Tiustees announced today that architects have begun
plans for the Student Union Ijuildinn ])roposed by the Trustees
on January 22, 1952. Williams Treasurer Charles A. Foehl stated
that the college is "rushing all jjlanning, in the hope that groimd
may be broken this summer and building finished by the fall
of 1953".

Architects are considering the area lying between the Fresh-
man Quad and the President's house us a possible location. Tlie
Trustees decided the Student Union and freshman eating facili-
ties should be incorporated in the same building. Several major
criteria for construction of tlie Student Union include a dining hall
large enough to aeeomniodate

di'nt Richard Duffleld '52 an-
nounced the resignations of the
five Garfield Club representatives

ed by Elliot Curtis '52, will Inves-
tigate the problem of maintaining
the 80-20 ratio and the so-called
junior-senior rule for restricting
fraternity membership. The UC
committee will make its report

Wesleyan DV Chapter
May Face Suspension

Defies National's Ruling,
Initiates Negro Student

a tiestniian class of 300 with
separate dining facilities for up-
perclassmen, faculty, alumni, par-
ents and guests and a large cen-
tral kitchen to supply both dining
liall.s with the best food at the
lowest possible cost."

Recreation Areas Planned
The plans call for freshman so-
cial facilities, including a game
room, one large lounge which
could accommodate lecture and
film audiences, and a smaller
lounge. Lounge space will be pro-
vided for Student Union activities,
and w^ill be adaptable, in some
cases by subdivision, to such ac-
tivities us lectures meetings,
dances, and films.

A snack bar open to all students,
including freshmen, will be con-
structed in the building, and of-
fices are planned which will house
as many student activities and
organizations as design and con-
struction permit.

Music A Possibility
Together with plans for Stud-
ent Union game facilities, in-
cluding ping-pong and billiards,
one college official said that piped-
in phonograph concerts may be
installed in the new buildings. If
social units so desire, warehouse
and refrigeration facilities open to
all campus social groups may be
housed in the Union.

Representatives of the Boston
architectural firm of Perry, Shaw
and Hepburn, Kehoe and Dean
have been engaged to draft build-
ing plans. Requests for government
allocation of restricted materials,
such as steel, will be made at the
proper time.

The Trustees making the report,
are Mr. Henry Flynt, Sr., of
Greenwich, Conn., chairman of
the trustees' committee on build-
ings and grounds, Mr. Aurthur
Santry of Boston. Mr. G. Dykeman
Sterling of Maplewood. N. J. and
Mr. Ferdinand K. Thum of Wy-
omissing, Pa.

Middletown, Conn., Jan. 19 —
Despite the house's possible sus-
pension from the national frater-
nity a Negro. Edgar F. Beckham of
Hartford, was one of the seven
pledges taken into full member-
ship at the Wesleyan chapter of
Delta Upsilon.

Joseph M. Proud, president of
DU at Wesleyan and a resident
of Wllliamstown, announced that
the house was going on its own
policy "to initiate on the basis of
character and personality alone."
Breaks National Rule

A rule of the national organiza-
tion provides that an alumni mem-
ber may bar a prospective candi-
date. In ignoring this rule by ac-
cepting the student over a dis-
senting alumni vote, the chapter
faces possible suspension from the
national fraternity.

Beckham holds two of the uni-
versity's major scholarships and
was a high school honor student.
He was elected "boy governor" of
Connecticut at the American Le-
gion Boys' State in 1950 and
served as Mayor pro tern of Hart-
ford's junior City Council.

THE NEW UNION

The Buildings and Grountls Commitiee ot the Board ol
Trustees released some preliminary proposals and ideas con-
cerning the new Student union hmiui.ig today. This addition to
tue campus adds nothing incompatible to tiie drive lor complete
memoersaip, but, on the other naiid, it does not get to the core
ot tue social problem at Williams, l he new building will not
eliminate tlie unbid, disappoimed man. as long as this man exists,
tiiere will be agitation lor e(|nal opportunity for social and
cultural development. We view the Union as a treat that will
provide a more pleasant Williams College and which will help
create a more even-Keeled weekend lite lor undergraduates. The
social system problem has remained m the high clouds of
discussion tor tiie past six years. Ihe Union represents a concrete
proijosal vvliieli will no doubt create new torces and ])ressures
mat may lead to problems that will lorce the desired goal of
a single Williams.

We commend the administration hir its decision to build
a Union that will provide ample and pleasant facilities. The
building must be attractive enough to niuKe stiitlents use it from
tlie Start. A half-way job will not draw the students and would
not be worth the expense. The Union must offer social and
recreational facilities as good as any ijrovided by the fraternities
in order to get men from dilferent houses to get together in
the new building. The proposed plans indicate that this is the
type of structure that the atlmlmstratioii is contemplating. The
siiacK bar lor morning colfee or a sandwich after the Hicks should
be the biggest student drawing card. If it is at all possible,
student postal bo.xes should be placed in the Union. This add-
ition would insure the use of the building by at least .SOU students
per day. Altogether, the game rooms, activity offices, lounges,
weekend informal dances and other Uiiitm functions should
attract at least 750 men dail)'.

The site between the Presidents home and the Freshman
QuadraiH'le is the best po.ssible choice nnd''r tin; circumstanees.
Actually the Park Street lot is inneh big.ger than it appears and
will allow for expansion of the plant slionltl increased food
expenses force the institution of eommnnal dining. The Union
will be piaclieally in the center of the campus within a con-
venient three minute walk from the llbrarv or Hopkins Hall.

We commend the administration on its decision to spend the
necessarily large aiiiount to provide a building that will be
pleasant enough to attract a large number of Williams men. In
the long run, an expensive building that is used extensively will
gain more than an unused imattractive campus center.

Letters to the Editor

I'o the liditor of the Williams UeeonI:

Some eminent Williams thinkers liaM' siiggesletl that the
split on campus was no ordinary split, hut in tact iiuplieil the
existence ot two worlds - one a .scholastic antl the other a social,
witn Ihe two revDhing ahont tlillerent poles. Insleail of the
social eomnmnity eompleineiiting, it has diM'rged ami snblraeted
the colleges lioni acatlemic hie. Ol e(|nal importance to the
tiemoralizalion hi the tiarliekl C:lnl) is ihe lael that Iraterinl)
selectivity has protlueetl Iraternil) norms which snhtract Iroin the
vigor with whicii a stiitleiit might apply himsell to classroom work.
It tloesn't seem to me that the Irnslees' moves are going to
close the gap between the social and academic ends ol the college.
As long as there is rejectivity anil e.velnsivity, no Iraternity
"de-emphasis" is going to make the college a eoliesi\e body. Our
present atlvocates of 'conniiiiiialism ' will admit that as long as
oiir present selective system reinahis, there will always be a
strong teinptatioii to leave a Stiulent Union lor those Iraternity
Irientls to be hmntl in the separate houses. The Trustees' reeom-
menilations, insleati of being positl\t' nunes alieatl, are rather
desparate last iihnnte measures to savf al all costs that okl way
of hie they knew at Williams. It's like tlnowing sandbags into a
shaky tlike to slave oil the onslauglit ol a menaeing llootl. Soiiie-
tiines the bags work, but usually the water wins, antl only
alterwards tlo people decide they iiati better start all over again
and btiiltl a gootl concrete dam.

Deny Ivriise's recent letter spoke of the gradual attrition
of Williams values unless 101)'? riishing was ellected. Does it
not now seem that our values will be pr()gressi\ely negated, as
Deny Kruse suggesteil, iintler the impact ol the trustees moves?
A Stutlent Union antl I'leshnian segregation eonld be excellent
things, but ask an .\mlieist man for his liirki tlescriptioii of

'lining up delegations", belore yim form an opinion about
ilelerred rushing. In atltlition eo'iiimimal eating is a natural
protlnet ol this "I'laternit)- de-emphasis" program and will
tiestroy a large tiegree of our small milt \ allies. H\- these values,
I mean the warmth, strength, and soeial inatiiritv derived from
constant eompanionslhp with a house ol (it) to 71) meinbeis.
I still l)elie\c that small units, ineliidiiig 100', of the college, can
,ifler the most positi\f social baekgroniitl. The present system
or the aiionviiiilv of ciimnmiialism are negating alternatives to the

lulv step that should be taktn.

The Shorb plan is now the most practical way to iiitrodutc
10(1',! rushing. It ilivides the freshmen class in hall on the basis
of bids reei'Uftl anil each hiaise must take at least a third from
each half. Ihe Shorb plan allows a degree ol selectivity, hut dwa
not lead to tlie damaging situation that the straight bounce phm
would ha\e. Ihe student body imist take llieir problem in hand
again, direct the course of the college in a more positive way
than the trustees have done, and at least vote on the Shoih
plan. Were it put into effect, we might retain our small niut
\aliies; the proposed student union eoiilil be the unilying focal
point of a college lib- In which our social and academic ends were
no longer anlagonistie to each other.

To the Editor of the Williams Record:

Why must the Chapel be lockeil save for Sunday Vespers':'
On my first return to Williams in three years yesterday, I was
sorry to find the tloors locked. Let's not forget tliat the enduring
strength of Williams in days to come will not be in matters
economic, military, jiolitical, governmental, or social, but in things
spiritual, moral, and ethical. The first half of this century has
been plagued with wars, greed, envy, and man's inhumanity t(
man notwithstandiug technological advance, because we forgo
we are creatures and not the Creator. In a college of Icarninr
such as Williams it is tragic to find all buildings open but one
"Unless the Lord build the house, they labor in vain that build it.'

By Jack O'Kleffe

Jan. 19— The Williams wrest-
ling team suffered its third defeat
of the .season dropping an 18-13
decision to Springfield today at
La.sell Gymnasium. The Maroons
well balanced team proved to be
the deciding factor as the Purple
could win only three matches.

Dick Gordon, although hamper-
ed by a weak knee, turned in an
excellent performance for Wil-
liams as he pinned George Dyer
in the 167 lb. match. Bob Hershey
and Captain Bill Callaghan also
showed fine form as they won de-
cisive victories over their oppo-
nents in the 130 and 157 lb. classes
respectively.

Springfield Takes Early Lead
Springfield, by winning three of
the first four matches, built up a
commanding 13-3 lead. New Eng-
land champion Sam Coursen pin-
ned Rod Cover in the 123 lb. class
and Ted Bienkowski at 137 lbs.
pinned Bill Williams. Bill Bock
decisioned Bob Shorb in a very

1 Undefeated Williams
Frosh Battle RPl

Feb, 9~In a determined effort
i(j break the Little Three dead-
hxk scored last year between
Williams and Amher.st, the Eph
lioopslers will meet the Sabrinas
in tile first of this season's pair
of i;umes tonight at 8:15 in the
LaSalle Oym. After Icsing to the
Purpie at Amherst earlier in last
year'.s season, the Jeffs ended the
year by journeying to Williamr--
town and upsetting the home
team, thus tying for the Little
1 hrec Championship.

The only member of the Am-
herst starting five in the i951
contest who will not be in the
line-ui) tonight is Bob Hawkins,
last year's captain. The remain-
ing four return intact along with
.sophomore Tony Mahar. who gen-
erally L'cts the job of guarding
the opiJonent's high scorer.

Lanky Sterling 'Weaver, who has
averaged 15 points per game this
season, and Captain Derry Ben-
nett, who scored 13 points m last
season's upset win over the Ephs,
pace the well-balanced Sabrina
attack. The other starters are
Howie Fisher or George Sliglit at
center and Ken 'Wright or Frank
Mafiee at forward.

Itocky Amherst Schedule
The Lord Jelf record of six wins
and four losses doesn't appear too
impressive, but the defeats were
incurred at the hands of two
strolls; Ivy League powers. Col'.im-
bia and Yale, and two formidable
small college powers in New Eng-
hnd. Bowdoin and Trinity.

On the 'Williams side of the
ledger. Co-captain Wyn Shudt is
tlie only returning regular. The
EpfiS w.i; fed the less of last
year's big forward line w'nieh in-
cluded Bob Lar.son. Harry Sheehy,
and Don Speck which proved de-
cisive in the Purple victory over
the Jelfs in 1951.

Sophs Spark Ephs
'Williams' Coach Al Shaw stated,
"We expect a very hard game with
Amherst. They have more height,
but we could win if we're able to
control the backboards." 'With Co-
captain Diz Cramer out with a
chronic shoulder injury, the Eph
line-up will include Shudt. E*ll
Suessbrick, and the sophomore
trio. Herb Sniilli. Jack Hawkins,

Team Faces Tough Slate
In Weekend Clashes

Following recent losses to Ham-
ilton and Army, the Williams Col-

ol one win m six games, are talc-
ing part in a weet-end twin l),ll
wiih Norwicli and Middlebury. In-
cluded in the season's schedule

final canto.

Army Victorious

The team travelled to West
Point on January 19 where it took
an 8-0 druubaig at the hands of
a well-trained, fast Army six. Led
by center Fisterman, who turned
in the "Hat Trick" for the Point-
ers, the Cadets scored twice in
the opening period, five more
times in the second, and a fmal
goal m the last period.

Last evening, Williams faced a
mediocre Norwich team, which
ciiried a 3-2 record into the game.
I'onight, the Eph skaters travel
to Middlebury where they are sure
to meet stift' competition from the
Panther sextet. It is feared tliat
regular goalie Bud Hudson will be
side-lined for the remamder of
the season due to mjuries sustain-
ed m a recent automobile accident.

Club Dissolves . . .

ized the Trustees of the College
for their "neglect" of total rush-
iiig, "the most important social
issue on campus."

"riici-a Must Be a Change"

Said K.hn, "When the Garfield
Club announced Us plan to dis-
.iolve last December, it was made
clear that such thought had been
given long and serious considera-
tion. We felt that it was more
important to dissolve a social myth
th.in to enjoy any social benefits
which are derived from being
labeled a 'large, strong, indepen-
dent social unit.'

"On January 31, the myth with
all its fine labels still existed.
Though the Trustees of the Col-
lege certainly indicated that they
were capable of making positive
and progressive moves (deferred
rushing and a new student union),
they continued to neglect the most
important social issue on campus
— the fact that 20 percent of the
college is rejected from the social
system.

"By dissolving, we have, I think,
made things quite clear. There
will be no more rationalization to
the effect that everyone at Wil-
liams has equal social status. I
think that most of the non-afliili-
ates feel that by such action as
the Garfield Club took there will
necessarily be no 'dying out' of
the problem at hand; that every-
one will realize that very soon
there must be a change."

Reform League Organizes

To carry on action for total
rushing, former club men elected
representatives to the non-affliliate
committee of the proposed college-
wide "League for Total Rushing".

Wrestling . . .

This afternoon the matmen v/ill
seek their first victory as they
travel to New London to take on
the Coast Guard Academy. Be-
cause of numerous injuries to key
men. the Cadets boast only a
single victory as against two de-
feats to date.

Since the Mariners have also
bowed to Springfield, losing Satur-
day 19-11. today's match like last
year's, is a tossup. Last year the
Coast Guard Academy downed
Williams 17-13, in a thriller that

was not decided until the final
tend their winning skein to nine. bout.

and urged that all students, fac-
ulty, and alumni interested in pro-
.notiiig total rushing join the new
,)r!;aniz..tion.

"Improve Williams"

Said Levin, "The keynote be-
hind the league is the wide feel-
ing that our present social system
is poor and is actually hurting
Williams College, both internally
and in the eyes of outsiders. In
improving tile system we improve
Williams. We want and hope to
get support from all who share
our view that deferred rushing,
although a step in the right direc-
tion, does not solve the problem.
Total rushing will do this, we feel.
Faculty and alumni are Invited to
join as well as all students, fra
ternity men and otherwise."

'Operation Tusk Force' Commmences Once Again
In Mid-winter Hunt for Columbus' Sepulchre

Safari to Lenox Site
Finds Dirt, No Bones

by Kay Kolligian '53

During a dull, depressive and
soundless afternoon, with the thick
overhanging clouds oppressively
low in the still, silent sky, a group
of nine stalking, sinister figures
advanced stealthily toward the
dreary tract of land known as the
House of Columbus (and that's
not Christopher.)

Even without such an Edgar
Allen Poe emphasis, Columbus,
loxodonta africana extraordinary,
(translated: "helluva big eleph-
ant") has again become a topic of
conversation on the Williams cam-
pus; and the whereabouts of his
now century-old remains has
brought about, with renewed in-
terest and vigor, weekly "safaris"
into the deep, dark, dank, dreary
depths of the Lenox, Mass. estate
where our loxodonta is supposedly
burled.

"Operation Tusk Force"

For any who came late, "Oper'
ation Tusk Force" began last sum-

its a wonder that they will build
anything more at Willis ms."
Nothing Comparable

Dean Scott went on to appeal to
the self-respect of the freshmen,
and added thst he had never seen
such a condition at any other col-
lege. "In eleven years at Yale", he
recalled. "I never saw a beer can
thrown out a window."

Since the ground is frozen, there
is no way that the Building and
Grounds Crew can remove the
beer cans and other refuse until
"■pring. The Dean mentioned that
for three years no solution for the
problem has been found, but he
could not conceive "how anybody
would live in a garbage dump."
Reflects on College

In conclusion, the Dean express-
ed his wish that the freshmen
would live up to their first term
scademic record in the other as-
pects of college life. The condition
of the quad, he remarked pointed-
ly, "reflects both on the college
and on the individuals involved".

When asked to comment, a
Freshman who wLshed to remain
unidentified said. "In reference to
the Dean's statement about Yale.
I don't think a Yale Fieshman has
the strength to throw a beer can
out the window. I also thtak that
the blame must be shared by the
P-Ladies. who leave our rooms in
such a condition that we have to
get rid of the mess somehow."

Saturday. Feb. 9—400 specta-
tors at Lasell Pool watched a rare
exhibition as Dick Martin, Rick
Jeffrey, and Dave Byerly combined
to set six records and tie two in
pacing the Purple swimmers to a
45-;!0 win over Springfield.

Aftei- Ephs Byerly, Jeffrey, and
Belash won easily over the visitors
*n the opening medley i-elays. Don
Jones suiged ahead of Springfield's
Ycrzyk in the last few yards to
cop the 220 yard free style.
Martin Breaks College Marks
Then in the 50 yard free-style
Dick Martin, swimming in his
first meet after a long period of
ineligibility, broke the Williams
and pool records by four tenths of
a second and tied the New England
record with his 23.2 effort.

Martin continued his record-
breaking, after Springfield's stand-
out. Huddleston took the dive, by
racing to a wm in the 100 yard
free-style event in 51.1 seconds, a
maik which broke the Williams
and pool records of 53 seconds
and tied the New England record.
Byerly Smashes Own Record
Dave Byerly broke his own re-
cently-set Williams record in the
200 yard back stroke as he edged
Robbins of Sprmgfield.

Co-Captain Rick Jeffrey turned
in the fourth and final record-
breakmg performance of the day
in the 200 yard breast stroke, cut-
ting the college record by 3.8 sec-
onds, from 2.31 to 2:27.2.

Jones Double Winner
Don Jones and Joe Worthlngton
clinched the Eph victory in the
440 yard tree-style race by easily
placing first and second respec-
tively. The meet ended with the
visitors winning the 400 yard free-
style relay.

No Need For Quotas

The Stalling Coininitti.'e voted on May 6, 1951 in luvoi ol the
following nioiioii; "that the Committee . . . lecoiiimend tliat the
Unuei'giin-Uiate (.A)uncil, toUowiug coiisultation with the Graduate
Coiiiniitiee ot \\illuinis Soeiai Units, estal)lish trateiiiity quotas,
sul)|eet to the appiosal ot the Collej^e Adininistiution. " We diere-
toie urge tlie IjL,, the Giaduate Conunittee, and the College Ad-
niinistraiioM to examine the eonsiderations.

Because ot tlie tlissolution ot the Garfield Club, we feel it
is fairly ohvious that there is no need to maintain the 80-20 fra-
ternny men — nun-alliliates latio. This rule was instituted in the
first place to guarantee a strong non-fraternity social group.
Since there is no longer any such organization, there is also no
longer any need for maiiitainuig its strength. All of the arguments
voiced in the Sterling Committee report in favor of the present
system are based on the existence of the Garfiekl Club. The Club's
dissolution has caiiseil the bottom to drop out of all these argu-
iiients.

It has been argiu'd that any rela.xing of the present quota plan
will eliminate the situation where the non-affiliate body is com-
posed of both minority and iion-iniiiorit\' groups. If the quotas
are abandoned along with the institution ' of deferred rushing,
practically all the men in non-minority groups will be taken into
fraternities. The implications of such a development are "alarm-
ing to many in the Williams lamilv." If the present ((iiota svsteni
is concealing present fraternity \ alue judgments, then it is better to
drop the i|uotas and present a \alid picture of fraternity ])redjn-
dices. Deferred rushing and the ri'ininal of t|uotas will hiruish
concrete proof of the superficialitv and predjudice that govern
the selection of fraternity men.

Some on the Sterling Committee argued that the feeling o
rejection becomes e\ en more acute as tin- number left out of frat
eniities becomes smaller. The feeling is pretty acute now witi
one in five left out. lint the maintenance of (piotas would stag
nate any ino\e to increase gradually the number in houses iinti
the number of unpledged men becomes so ridiculously small that
liberal mintletl fraternities would invite these few to join This
essentially is what has hajDiicned at Princeton and at Amherst

For the fraternities' sake, it will be financially iiecessary to
abandon the present 80-20 ratio. Despite what the college says
It will do through the institution of Campus Business Manage-
ment, all houses will have to take more members from the upper
three classes to remain monetarily solvent.

If any quotas are placed on individual houses to prevent any
one fraternity from becoming <)\erwheliniugly large in contrast
to the other 14 houses, we urge that each house be permitted to
take more than one-fifteenth of each freshman class. This allow-
ance wil permit a fov hous.'s to take tlu^ last few unim'ited men
should there be only a very small number of them. This ad-
mittedly, is bringing total rushing in through the back door', but
the back door is a better entrance than nony-at all.

It's Your Club - We Hope You'll Use It.

by Chuck Lange

There is a danger thai the Williams eanipus will resolve it-
sell inlu its traditional lethargy now that the Trustees ha\(' re-
inlorci'd tlie sialus i|no ol the soeiai system. I.el us not delude
onrscKes iiilo thinking that the sto|)-gap measures of deferred
rushing and freslmiaii eating will pro\e acceptable to either the
liaternities or non-alliliates. liach group has an equal stake in op-
posing this comproinise.

liie thssaiislaclion of die non-alliliati's is e\'incetl by llii'
commendable dissolution of the Carfield Club. Its erstwhile iiiein-
bers realize only too well that their feeling of rejection and
second-rate citizenship will continue so long as the slinlent hiidy
is fraternity-oriented rather than colk'ge-oriented. Under the new
set-up, freslnnen will be more fralernilv-nhndeil than ever, since
they will look lorwartl to (he tlay when the\' can enjo)' tlii' gra-
cious li\ ing of the eating-clnb.

I'iiiaiuUd I'hivut

Fraternities, on the othi'r hand, are faced with the probli'iii
of total rushing slipping in the back door. Many fraternity dining
lialls are linanciallv in llii' retl alread\', anil with the elimination
of a Ireshnian delegation, oM'rhead anil opriatiug e.vpensi's
will loree the fraternities to accept the upper-class uon-alliliates
to avoid baukruplcN'. It is naive to expect the college to lu-lp fra-
ternities by iiieans of a CUM central warehini.se, when the pro-
posed e.\pciulitures on the lu'W Student Union are woefully in-
adequate.

Connnnnal eating is the on!)' wa\' in which (he dilemmas ol
both tile Iralernities and the non-allilia(es can be resoK'ed. The
financial ad\antagc for the fraternities is ob\ ions, since it would
eliminate the inevitable iusoKency with which they are con-
fronted.

('()//('gc ( '\iilij

It is the social benefits ol communal ealing, however, that
would justify such a radical mine, by gatlu'ring the college com-
munity together three timi's a day on a standing ol soeiai i'(|nali-
ty, more would bi' done to create a si'iise ol ciiininiinit\' on a vol-
untarx' basis than b\' any artificial plan of regulated rushing. It
is impossible (o legislate social (olerance; onh' by being thrown
in with the so-called "turke\s" will those who like to withdraw
within their exehisixe shells realize that exervone has some
to oiler.

The biggest obstacle (o instiditing a sxsteiu of connnunal
eating is the fraternity man's selfish relnsal to sacrifice the benc-

;hing

li( of eating in a small group, wliiih he now enjoys. Many un-
dergraduales remember willi distaste the barbaric eating eondi-
(ions in the freshman and sophomore eommons at Princeton,
which they experienced dining the iuhiinous lootball weekend in
195(1.

Saturday, Feb. 9— After jump-
ing off to an early first period lead,
the Williams Freshman basketball
te.-.m coasted to a 57-42 win over
the R.P.I. Frosh. It was the ninth
victory in a row for Bobby Coombs'
men, who played without the serv-
ices of their tall center Tony
Moro, who was injured in prac-
tice.

Though hurt by Moro's absence,
the frosh had little trouble in
downing the shorter Rensselaer
quintet.

Fred Broderick was instrumental
in puttting the Purple out in front
as he scored nine quick points in
the early minutes to help the Ephs
take an 11-3 lead.
Wilson, Henry Control Rebounds

With Ron Wilson and J. C.
Henry controlling the boards, Wil-
liams led 39-15 at half-time. The
Engineers tried to get back into
the game in the second half but
heir efforts fell short and the
Purple coasted in with the re-

Amherst . . .

iams led 10-3.

The Jeffs, however, fought back

slowly and grabbed the lead at the

end of the quarter on consecutive

Broderick each counted U and
Henry put in nine.

Today the Freshmen will ptit

Siena Frosli at Lasell Gymnasium.
Siena boasts a strong quintet and

sentatives are the questions of
preparation for marriage, sexual
behavior before and after mar-
riage, and p.sychological ad.lu.st-
ments to the marital status.

was proposed that Dr. Coughlin
consider in his talks such problems
as child training and the relation-
ship of sexual behaviour to parent-
hood.

victory in a row for Bobby Coombs'
men, who played without the serv-
ices of their tall center Tony

exact whereabouts of the 12 thou-

for one-hundred years.

After extensive research Into
m- ny yellowed documents, legends
old wives' tales, etc. combined with
a few dubious eye-witness reports
nnd mystical prophesies, "Opera-
tion Tusk Force" got underway.
Included in the chase for the ijrize
loxodonta (worth some $25.00 to
the Williams Record) were var-
ious groups from Williams. "I feel
like a 'bull-moose' " exclaimed one
of many itinerants on the first of
the Teddy Roosevelt- type big game
hunts.

About a week ago, with the balm
of Spring upon us, "Operation

of experts, and the stamina of
the proverbial "bull-moose", dig-
ging commenced. Picks and shov-
els hit the semi-frozen turf. Pro-
fuse oaths struck the air! And
four hours later, six feet of sod
had been unearthed — but still no

the shades of evening wore on the

Williams Joins Program

For Study At Harvard

School of Education

Wednesday. Feb. 20— Williams
and 19 other Eastern colleges
have joined with the Harvard
Graduate School of Education,
and the Harvard and Badcliftc
Graduate School of Arts and Sci-
ences to Inaugurate a cooperative
program to train elementary and
secondary school teachers. The
purpose of this program is to in-
crease the number of qualified
college graduates entering the
public .schools' teaching ranks.

The Fund for the Advancement
of Education is supporting the
program with $78,000 annually
for three years, $45,000 for fellow-
ships, and $33,000 to support the
Instruction and administration of
the plan.

President James B. Conant of
Harvard has announced that fel-
lowships will be granted to grad-
uates of the twenty colleges in
the program. The graduates will
spend a year at Harvard investi-
gatftig the ways of relating the
liberal arts program with grad-
uate study in education while
serving apprenticeships in teach-
ing. '

Noblo and Dr. E. J. Coughlin, a
local practitioner, are leading the
course.

Tlie opening lecture was given at
9 p. m. Ia.st night in the St. John's
palish house, but juniors and
seniors may still enroll. There will
be six Tuesday night meetings,
terminating the week before Eas-
ter recess.

Informality Stressed

Although the course has been a
Williams standby since the war,
this year's series hopes to attract
more participants by emphasizing
a greater degree of informality
and a broader view of the subject.

Dr. Noble is handling the moral
and spiritual aspects, while Dr.
Coughlin is lecturing on the phy-
sical side of the marriage. The
first part of the meeting is a
half hour talk by either Dr. Noble
or Dr. Coughlin. while the remain-
der is devoted to an open discus-

Breakfast in Bed

Still jubilant over the success of his first
private showing, garrulous, bandy-legged painter
Robert Seaman (pronounced Rowbear Seemawi
summed his triumph with simple modesty: "I
pick up where Rubens left off and carry things
much further." The critics, who are still dribbling
over Seaman's colossal canvas. "Breakfast in
Bed", were inclined to agree. Said one: "He
makes the hard line quiver with life; he can
plunge with equal, ease into the voluptuous depth
of the Baroque or the flat surfaces of modern-
ism."

Seaman's artistic pose is as unconventional
as much of his work. Explaining his unorthodox
gymnastics before the canvas, the energetic ar-
tist said slyly, "I paint what I feel. It takes
strength." Large, knobby hands, in contrast to
the long and delicate fingers usually a.ssociated
with his vocation corroborated the artist's state-
ment. Aware that the reporter was looking at his
hands, Seaman gestured toward a pile of house-
painter's brushes, and remarked with pride that
he had long ago rejected small bristles.

Wlien told that LEER was planning an ar-

tide on his work. Seaman insisted that the re-
porter must watch him at work. Ushered Into
the inner studio, the Leer interviewer sat by as
Seaman, with quick, powerful strokes, dipped his
brush into another masterpiece. His feverish
activity cea.sed as .suddenly as it had begun, and
Seaman announced with a sigh that the artistic
urge had left him. Turning, the master painter
stomped out of the room and left the reporter
either to contemplate the newly created canvas
or depart.

spired liis sensuous 5 x 12 feet "Breakfast in
Bed", Seaman said with a characteristic ,shrug,
"I like apples. They're Rood to eat, so I started
to paint an apple and one thing led to another."
"The Discussion on MarriaRe", while con-
taining obvious Freudian overtones (note the
stairs which dominate the center of the picture),
still puzzles local experts, who are uable to un-
derstand the comparison between th<- cold fish

and the female form. Seaman's somewhat warp-
ed imagination produced a startling and original
subject in a style reminiscent of George Braque's
overlapping, transparent planes.

Drawing from the Bible for the subject of
his provocative surrealistic work, "The Burning
Bush", the artist imparts his passion for life to
the famous phrase from Ecclesiastes. He has cap-
tured the awe with which man viewed the mira-

cle of the burning bush, and the very flames
seem to shimmy like a belly-dancer before the
observer.

Seaman's next project? To produce an illus-
trated edition of Henry Miller's "Ti'opic of Can-
cer" which will rival Rockwell Kent's graphic
presentation of Boccaccio's "Decameron,"

Williams Joins Program

For Study At Harvard

School of Education

Wednesday, Feb. 20— Williams
and 19 other Eastern colleges
have joined with the Harvard
Graduate School of Education,
and the Harvard and Radcliffe
Graduate School of Arts and Sci-
ences to inaugurate a cooperative
program to train elementary and
secondary school teachers. The
purpose of this program is to in-
crease the number of qualified
college graduates entering the
public schools' teaching ranks.

President James B. Conant of
Harvard has announced that fel-
lowships win be granted to grad-
uates of the twenty colleges In
the program. The graduates will
spend a year at Harvard investi-
iktfhg the ways of relating the
liberal arts program with grad-
U»te study in education while
serving apprentlce.shlps In teach-
ing.

Noble and Dr. E. J. Coughlin, a
local practitioner, are leading the
course.

The opening lecture was given at
9 p. m. last night in the St. John's
parish hou.se, but juniors and
seniors may still enroll. There will
be six Tuesday night meetings,
terminating the week before Eas-
ter recess.

Informality Stressed

Although the course has been a
Williams standby .since the war,
tills year's .series hopes to attract
more participants by emphasizing
a giealer degree of informality
and a broader view of the subject.

Di-. Noble is handling the moral
and spiritual aspects, while Dr.
Coughlin is lecturing on the phy-
sical side of the marriage. The
first part of the meeting is a
half hour talk by cither Dr. Noble
oi- Dr. Coughlin, while the remain-
der is devoted to an open discus-
sion, with the added attraction
of refreshments.

Proposed Topics

Among the topics suggested last
Wednesday by the house repre-
sentatives are the questions of
preparation for marriage, sexual
behavior before and after mar-
riage, and psychological adjust-
ments to the marital status.

On the physiological side, it
was proposed that Dr. Coughlin
consider In his talks such problems
as child training and the relation-
ship of sexual behaviour to parent-
hood.

The Childhood of Charley Keller

Cliarley Keller, aullior. athlete, gourmet, and
stiitesman. today stands as the biggest unknown
in the confusion of pre-convention politics.
"Choose Charley" clubs spring up daily all over
the country as enthusiastic young political ama-
teurs, in a common hunger for a "solid man"
in the White Hou.se, look more and more to
Charley. Cynical politicos, ward heelers, and
committee men are looking and a.sking questions.
Said Ohio's Bob Taft, another candidate, "What
Is this man? How docs he stand? Can he run?"

This week LEER takes a look at Keller the
man. in an attempt to show how his life back-
ground molded his present stature.

Charley is playing coy. as support for his
campaign begins to gain momentum. Last week
in Paris as International Food Surplus Direc-
tor. Charley tossed a terse "no comment" to
reporters who cornered him outside his favorite
French pastry shop.

As a white-bucked undergraduate at Yale.
Charley first showed the executive ability which

his supporters feel make him a natural for the
White House. New Haven remembers Charley
as the man who put Skull and Bones on its
feet. As Club treasurer during his senior year,
he cut food costs to the bone by purchasing
unbelievably cheap supplies from new and un-
tried .sources. Said Charley in later years, laugh-
ing heartily over his college days. "It's an old
trick I learned as a kid when my candy allow-
ance ran low." <See Picture'

Williams Joins Program

For Study At Harvard

School of Education

Wednesday, Feb. 20— Williams
and 19 other Eastern colleges
have joined with the Harvard
Graduate School of Education,
and the Harvard and Eadcllffe
Graduate School of Arts and Sci-
ences to inaugurate a cooperative
program to train elementary and
secondary .school teachers. The
purpose of this program is to in-
crease the number of qualified
college graduates entering the
public .schools' teaching ranks.

The Fund for the Advancement
of Education is supporting the
program with $78,000 annually
for three years, $45,000 for fellow-
ships, and $33,000 to support the
instruction and administration of
the plan.

President James B. Conant of
Harvard has announced that fel-
lowships win be granted to grad-
uates of the twenty colleges in
the program. The graduates will
.spend a year at Harvard investi-
gatlhg the ways of relating the
liberal arts program with grad-
v»te study in education while
serving apprenticeships in teach-
ing.

Noble and Dr. E. J. Coughlin. a
local practitioner, are leading the
course.

The opening lecture was given at
9 p. m. last night in the St. John's
parish hou.se. but .juniors and
.seniors may still enroll. There will
be six Tuesday night meetings,
terminating the week before Eas-
ter recess.

Informulity Stressed

Altliough the course has been a
Williams standby .since the war,
this year's series hopes to attract
more participants by emphasizing
a greater degree of informality
and a broader view of the sub.ject.

Dr. Noble is handling the moral
and spiritual aspects, while Dr.
Coughlin is lecturing on the phy-
sical side of the marriage. The
first part of the meeting is a
half hour talk by either Dr. Noble
or Dr. Coughlin. while the remain-
dei' is devoted to an open discus-
sion, with the added attraction
of refreshments.

Proposed Topics

On the physiological side, it
was proposed that Dr. Coughlin
consider in liis talks such problems
as child training and the relation-
ship of sexual behaviour to parent-
hood.

muzzle under the edge of a rug.
One shot — a "short" shell —

Forced out of college when Papa "Pork"
Keller's fortune went down the drain after
the crash of '29, Charley invested his meager
savings in a basket of apples and opened a
fresh air business in a small New England col-
lege town. Competition from a chain of Greek
restaurants forced the young businessman to
the wall and into the teaching profession.

Bravely volunteering In the Coast Guard at
the first hint of trouble in 1945, Charley began
a meteoric rise to military fame as a blimp pilot
over the troubled North Atlantic waters. At
the end of the war he emerged a national hero,
raised to highest rank, a party to decisions that
rocked the world.

Since his return from France.Kelier has been

Carnival Attracts 400

Well iced mountains and martinis have
lured 400 recorded females to Williams for this
famous winter weekend. The LEER returns miss-
ed the magic 500, but many non-affiUates are
entertaining unpubliclzed lovelies, due to the
mass boycotting of the Old Garfield Club list.

A traditional favorite, Smith again leads
the pack with sixty-eight entries in a fast heat.
For the first time since Helen Hokinson, one de-
fiant fraternity, the callous Kaps, managed to
shut out the Northampton girls. A genteel score
and a half of Vassar delegates nudged aside
Holyoke for second place honors, as South Had-
ley sent a scant twenty-five. Skidmore and
Wellesley made faint bids for fame with twelve
and nine offers i-espectlvely while distant North-
western sent six.

Among the fraternities the well bred Saints
took the lead in lust with thirty-four contribut-
ing brethren. Hot on their necks were the Alpha
Dclts inviting thirty-three visitors. The Phi Delts,
Slgs, and Zetes drew thirty-one per house.

Skiers' Paradise

Long known as a spectacular ski center, Wil-
llamstown's winter wonderland annually attracts
thousands to its silky snow slopes. Nestled in
the bosom of the Berkshires, this typical New
EnRland village offers both scenic and sporting
splendor to the fortunate tourist. The snow never
melts.

As the crowds stream down from the majestic
Taconic Trail and along lovely old route seven
into "the village beautiful" they are treated to
the sight of silvery human snow birds plum-
meting down the sheer slopes of Sheep Hill. One
of the nation's most fabulous ski areas, the
slope is constantly thronged with cold weather
.sports enthusiasts from the four corners of the
elobe.

At nearby Cole Field Rink, the world-re-
knowned Williams hockey team may be seen
practicing at almost any hour of the day or
night under the expert tutelage of their auburn-
haired mentor. Frank Bell.

But most of all are the gay throngs of
young men and women who flock to the Sheep

social activities amid singing and dancinu.

Faculty Club Dance
Attracts Large Crowd

Saturday Feb. 16 — While the
rest of the campus was in the
middle of the Winter Carnival
festivities, the faculty enter-
tained themselves at the Facul-
ty Club dance which ran from
nine last night until one o'clock
this morning. Total attendance
was estimated at 60 persons by
Richard O. Rouse, entertain-
ment committee chairman In
charge of the dance.

For the sake of contrast to
the sub-zero weather that had
prevailed for the last few days,
the profs planned their deco-
rations around a spring motif.
A large and potent punchl)owl
provided a continual fountain
of enjoyment, as the professors
and their wives danced to the
music of Al Trudel and his
band.

Trends in Beachwear

A century ago, less of the female form was
revealed at the beach than one sees today at a
formal dance. But woman has been gradually
shedding her clothes ever since in response to
the unyielding pressure of fate. The Bikini
bathing suit currently worn on the Riviera is
little more than a penwiper and a shoestring.
Women have been emancipated and the fashions
of 1952 reflect the triumph of honesty, virtue arid
a new respect for the status and functions )(

Promising

Young

with
Aclor

It is not ea.sy to be a Promisiiii; Youni; Ac-
tor. The well known critic Brooks Barnes lia.s
I'volved the now famous "three point index of
Success" which briefly summarizes some of tlie
<iualilies which a man must have. To fill the
bill he must first have all the qualities of an
Air Corps Staff Officer. That is he must be "le-
al" to the verge of fanatici.sm "honest" to the
cdBC of hypocrisy, ".sympathetically undeistand-
ini!" to the brink of mawkishness. and "willinn
to subordinate himself" to the very border of
oblivion. Secondly, he must be an expert in many
fields, including art, music, geophysics, physio-
botony, neuro-siuuery. palcospastoloiiy. and ap-
plied seismology. Tliirdly. for audience i ppeal
and publicity purposes, he must be loothily, sexy,
a bit unbalanced, athletic, da-shing and a bit
vil. .lolui Stone fills all these leouircment.s.

He has been forged out of the steel from which
all our greatest actors, such men as Claude Jar-
mon Jr. and Randolph Scott, have come.

Stone was born at a young age, of average
l)arents. From birth he was esrmarked for the
.s.age. He was the only baby on his block with
sparkling blue eyes, an inherent knowledge of
' oophysics, and pencil-line wax mustache. At
the age of two he gave the first indications that
h s person lily was .suitable for a stage career
when with diabolical cunning he lured his
cr ppled maiden aunt to the head of the cellar
stairs, and then hurled her to her death in the
bi'sL Richard Widmark style.

At the age of four, John became an adven-
turer, developing the characteristics of a Pro-
mising young actor through extensive travel. As
'v't' ng a man carrying on in the best tradi-

A lover of all animals, John plays after rehearsal
with his devoted cat Mephistopheles.

Williams Joins Program

For Study At Harvard

School of Education

Wednesday. Feb. 20-Williams
and 19 other Eastern colleges
have ioined with the Harvard
Graduate School of Education,
and the Harvard and Badcllffe
Graduate School of Arts and Sci-
ences to inaugurate a cooperative
program to train elementary and
secondary .school teachers. The
purpose of this program i.s to in-
crease the number of qualified
college graduates entering the
public schools' teaching ranks.

President James B. Conant of
Harvard has announced that fel-
lowships will be granted to grad-
uates of the twenty colleges in
the program. The graduates will
spend a year at Harvard investl-
gatJhg the ways of lelating the
liberal arts program with grad-
uate study in education while
serving apprentlce.shlps in teach-
ing.

Noble and Dr. E. J. Coughlin. a
local practitioner, are leading the
(■nurse.

The opening lecture was given at
!) p. m. last night in the St. John's
parish house, but juniors and
seniors may still enroll. There will
be six Tuesday night meetings,
terminating the week before Eas-
ter recess.

Informality Stres.sed

Althougli the course has been a
Williams standby since the war,
this year's series hopes to attract
more participants by emphasizing
a greater degree of informality
and a broader view of the subject.

Dr. Noble is handling the moral
and spiritual aspects, while Dr.
Coughlin is lecturing on the phy-
sical side of the marriage. The
first part of the meeting is a
half hour talk by either Dr. Noble
or Dr. Coughlin, while the remain-
der is devoted to an open discus-
sion, with the added attraction
of lefreshments.

Proposed Topics

Among the topics suggested last
Wednesday by the house repre-
sentatives are the questions of
preparation for marriage, .sexual
behavior before and after mar-
riage, and psychological adju-st-
ments to the marital status.

On the physiological side, it
was proposed that Dr. Coughlin
consider in his talks such problems
as child training and the relation-
ship of sexual behaviour to parent-
hood.

Perhap.s tlie most popular paint-
ing on display is the work of an
American Negro. Jacob Lawrence.
His "Pool Room" is drawn in .such
great detail that it even shows
the smoke of a lighted cigarette

Kifle Found

Investigators found the body ly-
ing face upward on a couch in the
room. Some tour feet away, be-
iicatli a double-decker bed, lay a
'joll action .22 caliber rifle, its
muzzle under the edge of a rug.
Due shot — a "short" shell —
had been fired from it.

Officials completed their on-the

night, but continued to work un-
til early this morning at a Spring

Ireland Captures
Skimeister Award

Participants, Spectatom
Hail Meet as Success

Saturday, Feb. 16 — Attracting
three of tne top ski teams in the
country, the Williams Winter Car-
nival scorned the snowless wastes
of Williamstown and took to the
slopes of Mount Greylock and
Goodell Hollow. The best in ski
thrills awaited the comparatively
few spectators who braved the
cold and the climb to watch the
events. The team title finally
went to Middlebury after a nip
and tuck battle with Dartmouth.

The winner's captain. Dick Ire-
land, won Saturday's jumping to
give his team the margin of vic-
tory over the Indians — 587.63
to 584.33. Ireland, who also plac-
ed sixth in the downhill and
se\enth in the slalom, received the
coveted Williams Skimeister Tro-
phy for the best individual show-
.ng over the two day competition.

Williams repeated and possibly
exceeded its flflne showing at the
Dartmouth Carnival last week,
lops ot the class B teams, the
Ephmen scored heavily in the
downhill, placing third, ahead of
such powerful competitors as New
Hampshire and Bowdoin.

Burden Combined Winner

Doug Burden of Middlebury,
winner of both the downhill and
the slalom the piv .'ious week, was
forced to be content with seconds
this time, bowing to Klrby of
Dartmouth in the former and to
team-mate Gale Shaw in the lat-
ter. Burden and Shaw were one-
two in the .Alpine combined.

After falling behind Middlebury
in Friday's events, Dartmouth
staged a strong comeback in the
Nordic events on Saturday. Trem-
blay, Agan, and Drury of the In-
dians took the first three places
in the Nordic combined, but the
Blue and White stayed close e-
nough for Ireland's winning jump
to provide tlie margin of victory.

John Hewett Qualifies for Coveted
American Alpine Club Membership

Wednesday, Feb. I>0--John He-
wett '.'j3, recently elected to the
American Alpine Club, became
the youngest alpinist in the his-
tory of the oiganization to receive
such an honor. Despite his youth,

ganization of 40(i mountain climb-
ers, the vast ma,iority of whom
are residents of the United States.
It maintains headquarters in New
'Vork City and supplies its mem-
b.^rs with much climbing infor-
mation, some in Its regular pub-
lications and some on request
Itrrointnrnfl and ,'\p|iroval

In order lo tiuallfy for member-
ship in the American Alpine Club,
nn applicant must have sufficient

climbing experience, be recom-
mended by at least two members,
and approved by Ihe Club as a
whole.

Hewett was nominated tor niem-
bershlp by Adams Carter, his clo.se
friend and climbing companion.
He first met Carter when the
loiter became a teacher at Milton
Academy, Hewetl's pivp school. It
was under Carter's influence that
John became an avid and expert
climber.

As a member and later president
of the Milton Academy Moun-
taineering Club, John gained his
first actual climbing experience.
He was active in the organization
when Carter .joined the Milton
r.iculty. and the two have led
Climbing groups on trips to the
west for the past two years.

Williams Joins Program

For Study At Harvard

School of Education

Wednesday, Feb. 20— Williams
and 19 other Eastern colleges
have joined with the Harvard
Graduate School of Education,
and the Harvard and Radcliffe
Graduate School of Arts and Sci-
ences to Inaugurate a cooperative
program to train elementary and
secondary school teachers. The
purpose of this program is to in-
crease the number of qualified
college graduates entering the
public .schools' teaching ranks.

The Fund for the Advancement
of Education Is supportlnK the
program with $78,000 annually
for three years, $45,000 tor fellow-
ships, and $33,000 to support the
instruction and administration of
the plan.

President James B. Conant of
Harvard has announced that fel-
lowships will be granted to grad-
uates of the twenty colleges in
the program. The graduates will
■■ipend a year at Harvard investi-
gatftig the ways of relating the
liberal arts program with grad-
uate study In education while
serving apprenticeships in teach-
ing.

Noble and Dr. E. J. Coughlin. a
local practitioner, are leading the
course.

The opening lecture was given at
9 p. m. last night in the St. John's
parish hou.se, but juniors and
.seniors may still enroll. There will
be six Tuesday niuht mectinus,
terminalinK the week before Eas-
ter recess.

Informality Stressed

AllhouBh the coui'.se has been a
Williams standby since the war,
this year's .sei'ies hopes to attract
more participants by emphasizing
a greater degree of informality
and a broader view of the subject.

Dr. Noble is handling the moral
and spiritual aspects, while Dr.
Coughlin is lecturing on the phy-
sical side of the marriage. The
first part of the meeting is a
half hour talk by either Dr. Noble
or Dr. Coughlin. while the remain-
der' is devoted to an open discus-
sion, with the added attraction
of refreshments.

Proposed Topics

Among the topics suggested last
Wednesday by the house repie-
sentatives are the questions of
preparation for marriage, sexual
behavior before and after mar-
riage. and psychological adjust-
ments to the marital status.

On the physiological side, it
was proposed that Dr. Coughlin
consider in his talks such problems
as child training and the relation-
ship of sexual behaviour to parent-
hood.

nierica present views of Paris and
Prafuc. as well as cities in Italy
and Russia.

"Pool Room" Favorite

Perhaps the most popular paint-
ing on display is the work of an
American Negro, Jacob Lawrence.
His "Pool Room" is drawn in such
great detail that it even show's
the smoke of a lighted cigarette
curling up from the edge of a pool
table.

Tile scenes vary from a large.
See Page 4, Col. 3

Uifle Found

Investigators found the body ly-
ing face upward on a couch in the
;oom. Some four feet away, be-
neatli a double-decker bed. lay a
'jolt action .22 caliber rifle, its
muzzle under the edge of a rug.
One shot — a "short" shell —
had been fii-ed from it.

Officials completed their on-the
scene investigation by 8:30 last
night, but continued to work un-
til early this morning at a Spring
Street funeral home.

John Hewett Qualifies for Coveted
American Alpine Club Membership

23 i last night by

pector Richard

2ld and noted

School pathol-

Dea.

tbuiiiaiiic, it member of Beta

Theta Pi. was the son of Mr. and

Mrs. Millard Romaine of 3726

Davenant Ave., Cincinnati, Ohio.

Wednesday, Feb. 20 — John He-
wett '53, recently elected to the
American Alpine Club, became
the youngest alpinist in the his-
tory of the organization to receive
such an honor. Despite his youth,
Hewett has a long and impressive
list of ascents to merit his mem-
bei'ship.

The Club itself is a select or-
ganization of 406 mountain climb-
ers, the vast majority of whom
are residents of the United States.
It maintains headquarteis in New
York City and supplies its mem-
bers with much climbing Infor-
mation, some in its regular pub-
lications and some on request.

Recommend and Approval

In order to qualify for member-
ship in the American Alpine Club,
an applicant must have sufficient

climbing experience, be recom-
mended by at least two members,
and approved by the Club as a
whole.

Hewett was nominated for mem-
ber.ship by Adams Carter, his close
friend and climbing companion.
He fiist met Carter when the
latter became a teacher at Milton
Academy, Hewett's prep school. It
was under Carter's influence that
John became an avid and expert
climber.

As a member and later president
of the Milton Academy Moun-
tnineerlng Club, John gained his
fir.st actual climbing experience.
He was active in the organization
when Carter joined the Milton
faculty, and the two have led
climbing groups on trips to the
west foi' the past two years.

Salurday. Feb. 16 — Attracting
three of the top ski teams in the
country, the Williams Winter Car-
nival scorned the snowless wastes
of WiUiamstown and took to the
slopes of Mount Greylock and
Goodell Hollow. The best in ski
ihiillh awaited the comparatively
lew spectators who braved the
cold and the climb to watch the
events. The team title finally
neni to Middlebury after a nip
and tuck battle with Dartmouth.
The winner's captain, Dick Ire-
land, won Saturday's jumping to
give his team the margin of vic-
tory over the Indians ~ 587.63
to 584.33. Ireland, who also plac-
ed sixth in the downhill and
seventh in the slalom, received the
coveted Williams Skimeister Tro-
phy for the best individual show-
ing over the two day competition.
Collins Stars
Williams repeated and possibly
exceeded its fltlne showing at the
Dartmouth Carnival last week,
lops ol the class B teams, the
Ephmen scored heavily in the
downhill, placing third, ahead of
such powerful competitors as New
Hampshire and Bowdoin.

Ned Collins '52 was the indivi-
dual star for the host team. He
placed seventh in the downhill,
fourteenth in the slalom, and
ninth in the jumping. Stu Chase
and Pete Callahan in the slalom
and Doug Wilson, Bob Tucker, and
Joe Foote in the cross country
were also outstanding for the
Ephs.

Burden Combined Winner
Doug Burden of Middlebury,
winner of both the downhill and
the slalom tlie previous week, was
forced to be content with seconds
this time, bowing to Kirby of
Dartmouth in the former and to
team-mate Gale Shaw in the lat-
ter. Burden and Shaw were one-
two in the Alpine combined.

After falling behind Middlebury
in Friday's events. Dartmouth
staged a strong comeback in the
Nordic events on Saturday. Trem-
blay, Agan, and Drury of the In-
dians took the first three places
in the Nordic combined, but the
Blue and White stayed close e-
nough for Ireland's winning jump
to provide the margin of victory.

Faculty Club Dance
Attracts Large Crowd

Saturday Feb. IB— Wliilc the
rest of the campus was in the
middle of the Winter Carnival
festivities, the faculty enter-
tained themselves at the Facul-
ty Club dance which ran from
nine last night until one o'clock
this morning. Total attendance
was estimated at 60 persons by
Richard O. Rouse, entertain-
ment committee chairman in
charge of the dance.

For the sake of contrast to
the sub-zero weather that had
prevailed for the last few days.
the profs planned their deco-
rations around a spring motif.
A large and potent punchbowl
provided a continual fountain
of enjoyment, as the profe.ssors
and their wives danced to the
music of Al Trudel and his
band.

exact whereabouts of the 12 thou-

for one-hundred years.

After extensive research into
m- ny yellowed documents, legends
old wives' tales, etc. combined with
a few dubious eye-witness reports
nnd mystical prophesies, "Opera-
tion Tusk Force" got underway.
Included in the chase for the prize

the Williams Recoi-d) were var-

like a 'bull-moose' " exclaimed one
of many itinerants on the first of
the Teddy Roosevelt-type big game
hunts.

About a week ago, with the balm
of Spring upon us, "Operation
T-P" was resumed. With the skill
of experts, and the stamina of
the proverbial "bull-moose", dig-
ging commenced. Picks and shov-
els hit the semi-frozen turf. Pro-
fuse oaths struck the air! And
four hours later, six feet of sod
had been unearthed — but still no
signs of the pet loxodonta . . . .And
the shades of evening wore on the

the time being, at least, the House
of Columbus remained undisturbed

STONE, LATHROP EXCEL
IN SHAW'S "PYGMALION"

♦ /(// .\itliiir Lctill. Jr. ,52

We all had a "bloocly" hikkI tiiiiu last week at tlie AMT pio-
diic'tioii of Sliaw's •PyK'nalioii '. A hcMiililullv-balaiiced and well-
rounded east presented lor the eaniival erowd a divertinjr spectaele
ol a eockney llowei-f^irl who develops in six months into an almost
pirteet lady of lashion through the aj^eney of a skilled phonetician
who has taken her in hand.

'Hiis is not one of Shaw's best plays-iior, by a Ion;; shot, one
of his easiest to prodnee. II a p\ay has depth and signifieance, it
should survive outside, as well as in the theatre. Tragedy or eoin-

stand criticism, convince us that its allegiance is to life. JlilariousI
ellective in the theatre, "Pygmalion" may be said to expire \vi
the tenancy ol our .seats.

Superb Cast q-

Such a play put-s the burden of
production squarely on the shoul-
ders of the cast. It cannot stand
by iUself. but must depend entirely
upon the oriKlnality and resource-
fulne.ss of the players. Probably
I'VKmalion ought to be rehearsed
by a company of well-blended
Kcniuses for a year before the cur-
lam Is raised. But our theatre is
not orsanlzed for such heroic en-
terprises. What we got at the AMT
lasi week was not perfect, but it
was original, inspired at times,
and extremely hlKh-minded —
all in all, one of the most accomp-
lished Jobs seen around here for
many a day.

Where there is so much sub-
stance I much of 11 unrefined and
aimless, to be sure i the manner of
the performance Is a thing of
lirsi, importance. Under the direc-
iion of William Martin, the man-
ner of this one was unapproach-
able. It's always a delight to .see
such a degree of technical pro-
ficiency on an amateur stage.
Stone Stars

The part of Professor Hlggins,
who takes up the flower girl, tea-
ches her to talk like a duchess,
passes her in society, and forgets
meanwhile that she is a human
being, is at best, hard enough. The
hero may all too readily appear to
be oppressive, selfish, and unkind.
John Stone avoided this inaccu-
rate interpretation by portraying
Higgins as a sort of childlike gen-
ius. And it is this quality In Hig-
gins that makes him appear will-
ful, stubborn, and forgetful of o-
Ihers.

Hell Week Fol de Rol

will bi'niii toilav iiinl to-
l\' 1)1 dishiiit; out a lot ol

The fifteen William.s I'lateinitie
morrow to indiilne in their yearly 1

hazing to tlie uuinitiatetl Ireshiin'ti in what is kMowi'ras llejl Week
Sn|)|5(i.seillv cle.sij,'ned to strem^tlien lioiise nnilv, Hell Week ac-
compli.slie.s one ol' tlie ^reate.st amounts oi wasted effort that the
campus e.\perienees duriiiir the year. Tlie worst feature of the
hazins,' period is that it deducts a week from the |)ledi;es' normal
stnd\' time. This \'ear, the eollei;e alumni associatioTi re(|uested
postpoiicmeut ol the initiation ceremonies from the first weekend
of tin' second term until l''cbriiarv 2'5. The i;tantinir of this re(|iiest
oiih' made the matter worse. Now. instead of the fiesluucn nn'rely
startiut; the term on the wroni; foot with the first week's assii;n-
meuts neglected, the |iledires must Ix' interrnpled in the mitUlle of
the stretch riirlit before hour e.\ams. The C^erman, (^hemistrv. and
Physics Deiiartments usually scbediile two liom- tests and a half
hour test sometime durinjr each ternt. Tliis year's Hell Week cuts
into the middle of the first of diese e.vajniiiations. Rightly eiioui;h,
tlie collei^e shortened the customary Hell Week to two da\'s so
that tlie traditional liazinu; period is not only a token of its former
self. Still, this token, eomini; as it does in the middle of some
freshman e.\auis. is an e.\;uiiple of bad planning. In the future we
liope that Hell Week will be seliednled at its proper time, that is.
at the \'ery beyiuniiin of the second term. We also feel that the
shortened period of hazint; sliotild be continued, since house
unity must be built up diirini; the entire year and caiuiot be pro-
duced in a week of scariim the freshmen.

if house unity is the desired result, the fraternities should
follow the example of Beta Tlieta Pi and institute a "Help We<'k' .
The Betes this year are vohmti'erini; to aid Williamstown ami
North .\dams welfare oriranizations. The uiemliers do this work on
a voluntarv basis, and the entire tratcrnity is |)articipatiuf; in the
venture. House unity and spirit should increase more with upper-
classmen workiiii; with tlie pletln;es rather llian against them. Tliis
example of the lieta house should Ih'couk' the nniyersal I'jractiee
oil the Williams campus. If all the eneru;\ of Hell Week must be
dirowii tiround, then put it to a useful task and j;et .something
constrMcti\ (' rather than destructive accomplished.

A little lia/inj; mav be ;i trood thiui;; lor some of the "wise"
members of the pledge classes, but the wholesale i)svcholo,!i;ical
unrest that is forced on almost all the uninitiated is uncalled for.
Quoting from a letter to tlie lUiCORD, written by Junior C>lass
President Robert Shorb dininir his freshman year, we a^ree that
"the process ol surroundinir a pledi^e with a uuniber of stone-
faced, ob-so-serious upperelassmen. who then turn on a diatribe of
questions and criticism, probinjr for a weak point in the pledt;e's
character is bad enouyli, but the extent to which it is carried is iar
worse." This foolishness is the fol de rol tliat makes Hell Week
so iufintile. Hazing may be all rii^lit as lonj^ as it is fairly comical,
even to the freshmen who are forced to go throui;h with it, but
these prying (|uestioiis are certainly niinecessary. Nobody can reg-
ulate this malpractice except be officers of the individual houses.
We feel that any disconcerting thrusts into the jiersonal matters
of a pledge are entirely out of jilace in fraternity initiation.s. The
initiators .should limit tlieir actions toward the freshmen to siieli
humorous trivia as re(|uiring a pledge to collect a coin .s(|uashed by
the Minuteman, but should not harass the freshmen about their
personal lives. Resides, this sort of <|uestionning usually reveals the
upperclas.smen who haye been frustrated in their attempts lor
leadership and who are trying to raise their self-esteem through the
use of this novel power. This is hardly a mature attitude for upper-
classmen to take. This weekend, we hope that fraternity initiators
will exeicise more sensiti\'e judgment in their efforts to emphasize
the lowly state of the pledges.

Letters to the Editor

Alumni (Contributions

Feb. 1-1, 1952
To llif Editor ()/ thr Williaim HECOlil):

It is with great regret that 1 am writing to advise you that,
for the ijresent, at least, 1 do not feel that I can make any more
eoutribntions to Williams. Aftei reading wiMi some eire the con-
tents of the Report of the Committee On (.'ainpns Problems, 1 can-
not help but beliex'c that money 1 may haye available for educa-
tional institutions would be better used elsewhere

1 ha\'e a profound alfectiou for Williams and a sense ot grati-
tude for the education 1 recei\'ed there, but even those cannot
oyercome m\' distaste for the principles embodied in tlitj Report.

If there is one jirime issue in the world totlay (and lor the
past two decades) it is that of totalitarianism \s. democracy, and
except hir the physical threat posed by the totalitarian powers
themselyes, 1 feel that the greatest danger to our way ol hie is
from nndeiuoeratic practices in our own country. These nraeliees
are being encouraged and fostered at Williams as a result ol this
Report.

1 realize that tlie situation is no different than it has been tor
the past generation, at least, but the world has moyed on and the
crisis has become greater-aiid vet Williams remains unmoved.
When this position' is contrasted with the Irailblazing in human
freedom at some colleges, and eyen with the more moderate, but
refreshing, changes m'atle at Amherst and Princeton, 1 can only
reach the conclusion that surely money can be put to better use
than at Williams.

I hiund particularly distasteful that section of the report read-
ing: 'If the character of die fraternities were to be chaiigetl as
liroposed, it is doidittui if such Alumni support would be forth-
coming in a future jierioil of fin;incial stress . . ." That statement 1
would be ashamed to show to anyone who might feel as 1 ilo, that
the .American Dream is something more than a selling teclini(|iie to
entice the innocent.

It is with a real ))ang that 1 write this letter, but in view of
the ileeision r<'aelied, I cannol do odierwise. 1 can only express
the hope that those who fought against the reiiort will, at a later
date, emerge as the domintmt group so that I can reinstate luv
contiibntions to Williams.

Very truly yours.

To llir Editor of the Willidiiis liECOHP:

\s undergraduates we woiiltl like to add our protests to those
of Newton P. Darlington, jr. IS. against the practice of locking the
Chapel uhen it is not being used for services. We believe the
Chapel should remain the oin' building on the eainpns where the
undergraduate can go day or night for (|uiet devotion and medita-
tion.

If the college is truly concerned with the religious life of the
student, it should iinmediateh' discontinue the ])ractiee of locking
the Chapel and should jirovide lighting in the evening as well.

Oilier than thi' need lor a |)lace lor student devotion and med-
itation the College should eonsiiler the efleet which the presence of
a locked Chapel must litive upon the visitors to the (x)llege and
pidspeci i\ (' students and their parents. We .should open the Chapel
up now.

THE NEAREST FLICK

hil Bruce Palmer
Wcdncsdaij (iml Tlwrsdai/ A dreadful series of events leads to the
great Whiskey Panic of fortv-five on the island of Toddy in Scot-
land in the English flick "Tight Little Island". Rravely the islanders
rally and with the aid of a wrecked ship they restore the proper
alcoholic ratio to their homeland. The ratio .seems to run .some-
where around a (|uart a day per person. The dark forces of the
revenue department seek to combat this on purely moral grounds.
Needless to .say they meet firm, wily resistance. Love rears its
head, just why it should is hard to say, hut it adds rather than
detracts from the story. Joan Greenwood, who was in "Kind
Hearts and Coronets", is the female involved. She plays hard-to-
get' in a decidedly female dog-like manner, but relents in the end.
Tliere is plenty of humor invoKcd in the flick, provided by a group
of pretty colorful characters, all fanatically devoted to Scotch. Tlie
film was around last year and if you missed it then, take it in.
Tltev teil me this is a prere(|uisite for all Kappa Betes. If you get
nabbed by an ABC man. don't give your right name; tell them yon
go to Vassar and just dropiied by for the show.

Undergraduate Democracy

February 12, 1952
lo llir Editor of the Willintm HECORD:

My attention has been called to the action of a combined Phi
Hela Kapi)a-C;argoyle Committee which "registered their senti-
ment l)y endorsing complete fraternity membership".

II in making Hiis decision they were influenced by a desire to
sp;U(' any undergraduate the heartache which non-inembcrship in
a Iraferiiitv is assumed to cause, how can they logically oppose
siiiiilarly complete membership in Phi Beta Kap|)a and Gargoyle':'
The maddest of FDR New Dealers have never attempted to
abolish the possibility of heartache in the case of die citizenry at
large, but apparently what those paternalistic vote-grabbers balked
at does not faze the regimenters of Billville.

.\t a meeting of the Williams Alumni Club of Washington a
vear or so ago the principle speaker, a member of die faculty, told
lis a sob story in the course of which he pictured "a young man
whose whole life was embittered" because he failed to get a bid
from a fraternity. My reaction to that maudlin noii.scnse was to
wonder what luid happened to erstwhile recinirements of member-
ship in the Williams faculty.

Here in the nation's Capital the President has luncheon and
dinner guests every day. Should the fact that 1 have never re-
ceived such an invitation break my heart and embitter me't' Can
yon imagine the Congress being .so asinine as seriously to try to
enact legislation making citizenship automatically entitled to plant
their legs under the Truman table?

In my day the Junior Class perched atop the fence in front of
the labs, while the Senior Class members of Gargoyle walked be-
hind them, tapping those men whom they wanted in the honorary
society. Can would-be abolitioinsis of heartache conceive of any-
thing more cruel than that? Done in die blazing sunshine before a
(^ommencemeut crowd!

In view of their endorseiiieiit of complete fraternity meinber-
sliip, how can CJargoyle this June fail to tap every member of the
Junior Class?

millions of dollars inusr be spent annually for ma-
terials alone . . . ami more than lOO.OOO people in 119
plants eoniprise its mnnufacturinfr orjrani/.ation.

WHAT MANUFACTURING IS

Muniif.ictunnjz comprises all the activities essential to
translarinf! engineering designs into finished prixhicts.

This means that there are satisfying, reu iinling caieers
in manufaeturing supervision and as technical specialists
in such important areas as purchasing, manufacturing
engineering, prcxliietion, and wage rate work, and in the
.specialized functions within each one. These include tech-
nical specialties: value analysis, materials handling, opera-
tion planning and nieth<xls analysis, inventory control, and
motion time study.

Men holding such jobs arc finding them challenging
because of the skills, imagination, and nnderstaniling they
require . . . are finding them rewarding in prolessional
prestige and personal achievement.

AIMED AT THE NEED

lo train men lor such positions is the objective of the

.Manufaeturing Iraining Progniin, newest mcinbcr of the
well-Unoun group of comprehensive Compan\'-\vide train-
ing programs Test, Chemistry and Metallurgy, Physics,
Business Training, and Advertising.

At the conclusion of the Program, members fit into
some phase of (ieneral I'.lectric manufaeturing, with their
on-the-job progress being carefully followed to assure the
most effective utilization of tlieir skills. Recently, our
Ci-I''. manufacturing groups surveyed ilieir future leader-
ship requirements. Within the next five years, their needs
for new leaders in direct supervision alone will exceed
1300 men!

Martin Smashes Record
In 220 Yd. Freestyle

By Jud Klein

Wednesday. Feb. 13^Sparked
by Dick Martin's i'ecord-breaking
peiformaiiee in the 220-yard free-
style, coacli Bob Muir's Eph tank-
ers administered a 52-23 thumping
to the University of Connecticut
this afternoon in Lasell Pool.

Martin's 2:12.3 clocking shatter-
ed llie existing Lasell Pool, 'Wil-
liains, and New England intei'col-
legiale records for the 220. The
previous New England mark of
2:12.5 was .set by Bowdoin's Doug
-.11 two years ago.

Four 1-2 Finlsties
Except for Jefl Beckingham's
new Connecticut backstroke rec-
ord of 2:'J4.3. the U Conn forays
into the point column were few
and far between. Williams .scored
1-2 finishes in four events, with
Marlm and Joe Worthington fir.st
.uiniiig llie trick in the 220.

Max Rogers and Al Post com-
iiined for eight points in the div-
ing. Martin and Belash bettered
Conneclicut's entries in the 100-
yard sprint, and Charlie Douglas
and Bob Brayton monopolized the
breastslroke for the Ephs.

Worthington Wins 440
Connecticut's Jim Zuccardy fin-
ished first in the 50. but Belash
and Hank Molwitz claimed the
place and show spots for the Eph-
.nen. Likewise. Dave Byeiiy and
Al Melzger neutralized Becking-
iiam's win in the backstroke by
taking second and third.

Worthington copped a first in
the anti-climatic 440 freestyle,
aid Don Jones. Bela.sh, Sam Kim-
beiiy. and Martin outdistanced a
Connecticut fouisome in the final
400-yard relay to enlarge the gap
even more.

were valuable contributions lo the
prodticlion. His exceptional tim-
ing brouBht down the house in
the final act when he mounted a
hassock and thundered "Victory,

This was, by no means, a unique
or lucky momeiit. A smile, a flick
of his hand, or a dramatic pause
brought to life many lines which
miKht have remained obscured by
a less sensitive ivading of the part.
His movements, fin'lhcrmore, were
at such dizzyinK speed that every^
thing had a tendency to seem
much funnier than it really was.
Stone's poli.shed performance re-

underlying Shavian philosophy

Lathrop Shines in Debut

The character uf Eliza Doolittle
was not only faithfully imagined,
but freely and finely projected by
Mary Liithrop. student at the Bux-
ton School, who made her initial
appearance on the AMT stase last
week. Her Eliza was a woman of
feelinn. temperament and idio-
syncrasy. rauKing in mood and
manner as a creatiue ranges in
life. The tran.sform;ition she ef-
fects between the cockney flower-
Rirl and phonetic doll is fully and
be.jUlifully resourceful.

M ss Lathrop's best scene came
in tl"-3 second act as Mrs. Higgins'
tea where Eliza makes such a
brave showing with all the h's
going well. Her "bloody" is the
climax of slips which Shaw has
rigged to give them both a diver-
ting and a pathetic interest. This
part requires a great deal of ver-
.satility — vocal and emotional.
Miss Lathrop appeared to have
plenty of both.

Saturday, Feb. 23 — Alumni con-
tributed $115,277 to college cof-
fers In a record-breaking 1951
fund drive which ended at mid-
night on January 31, Tire total
although surpassing the cam-
paign's goal by only $277, nearly
doubled the previous all-time re-
cord of $82,000, ,set in the 1950
drive, Charles B. Hall '15, Execu-
tive Secretary of the Alumni Fund,
Indicated that the 3,617 donors
responding to this year's appeal al-
so constituted a record.

Proceeds from the drive have
been turned over to tlie Board of
Trustees for general application
to college expenses. No specific
objectives are cited in applying
for contributions, and the cam-
paign is waged chiefly through
mall and phone calls by class a-
gents and regional committees.

The 1952 campaign will be
launched in Williamstown with a
meeting and dinner on the weelt-
end of the opening home football
game, Mr. Hall has revealed. Un-
til 1950, the yearly appeal had
been opened with a ceremony in
New York, and the move to Wil-
liamstown was made last fall to
bring alumni closer to the campus.

Pre-Blaze Pipes Warm
Masons as Frame of
Roof Goes in Place

by Krcag Donovan. '54

Saturday, Feb, 23— The current
rumblings from within the walls
of West College are indications
of considerable reconstruction. All
is not as mysterious as the cloth
coverings, placed on the windows
to keep out the cold, might seem
to indicate.

Protruding from the west wall of
the building, a noisily vibrating
pipe is evidence of the constantly
beating cement mixer. A squad of
masons is presently erecting walls
of tile blocks on the second and
third floors, and these stories have
already begun to reveal their e-
ventual patterns.

Middle Stories Advanced

Steel door frames, the basic
pipes in the plumbing system, and
the metal framework of the stair-
ways are now in place. Th^ heat-
ing .system is still in service and
many of the workmen are kept
warm by the radiators of the pre-
blaze structuie.

As yet the first and fourth
floors of this dormitory show little
of the rejuvenation of the middle
stories. When the steel frameworl;
for tlie cupola was hoisted into
place Tuesday, it marked the be-
ginning of the actual reconstruc-
tion of the roof. Previously, the top
of the building had been left as a
bare, concrete surface.

Despite the fences and signs of
secrecy, the rebuilding of West
College is progressing normally
(ind rapidly. Completion of the
building is expected before the
return of the .students next fall.

Players Incorporated to Present
"School for Wives" Here Feb. 27

Saturday. Feb. 23— "The Scliool
for Wives", a famous French com-
edy by the 17th century playwrite
Moliere, will be produced by Play-
ers Incorporated at the Adams
Memorial Theatre Wednesday,
February 27, at 8:30 P. M. Players
Incorporated is a travelling com-
liany from Washington. D. C.
which takes professional theatre
to people all over the country.

Walter Kerr, author and direc-
tor of the recent musical hit
"Touch and Go" and drama critic
for the Herald Tribune, directs the
liroduction, which has a cast of
fifteen actors. The three leading
roles of "The School tor Wives"
are: John Marzocco as Oronte;
Henry Sutton as Henriques: and
Oil Rathbun as Chrysolde.

Produce Many Classics

Players Incorporated have pro-
duced many classics in the past
few years, and their repertoire in-
cludes 200 performances of Shake-
speare's "Much Ado About Noth-
ing", and G, B, Sliaw's "Arms and
the Man". With these two plays
and many others, the troupe has
toured virtually the entire country.

"The School for Wives" has fre-
quently been acclaimed as the best
play ever written by Moliere who.
in turn, has been called the great-
est writer of comedy in Frencli
history. All of Moliere's dramas
were written in the 17th century
and he forms part of the trio of
Cornellle. Rasine and Moliere
whose works dominated this "Gol-
den Age" in French literature.
Criticized at First

When first produced. "The
School for Wives" was strongly
criticized for not having conform-
ed to the standard of the typical
contemporary comedy. In place of
slap-stick and physical action. Mo-
liere substituted psychological
drama and a subtle type of humor.

Once the "School for Wives",be-
came established, it was presented
regularly at the Comedie Fran-
caise In Paris.

Tickets will be on sale for $1.20
at the AMT box office from 10:00
A. M. to 5:00 P. M. every day until
the performance. Although phone
orders will not be taken, mail or-
ders are acceptable if a check or
money order is enclosed.

flaunt sex." Shifting all respon-
sibility to assistants Ida Kay and
Rick Wheeler '52. Wa,5hburne con-
tinued, "I'm too old to be interest-
ed In .sex. but Ida and Rick. . ."

Clarifying the situation, Wheel-
er declared that "the minute Ray
walked out, Ida and I stripped the
window while the old cat's away,
the mice will play", Ida Kay, un-
fortunately, could not be reached
for comment,

Wheeler maintained that "two
Buxton youngsters were the first
ones attracted to the display, and
after that it snowballed, for no
one could resist it". Sales records
showed, however, that only three
persons were sufficiently snowed
to purchase one of the specimens.
Faculty Approved

Among those notables who com-
plimented the mutinous assistants
for the eye-catching spectacle,
Wi'ie Clay Hunt and A. Grant No-
ble. Wheeler imagined that they
had different motives, however.

Washburne remarked that he
W;is skeptical at first, but fin-
ally managed to see some .sense
in 11. "I'm thankful there were no
nudes", he .said. "I draw the line
there".

Eph Five Rallies
In Third Quarter
To Narrow Gap

Wesleyan Attack Shines
As Victors Gain First
Little Three Triumph

By Gerry Davis '54

Middletown. Conn. Feb. 20— A
devastatingly accurate Wesleyan
set-shooting offense handed Coach
Al Shaw"s Purple quintet their
second Little Three loss tonight
by the score of 69-57.

For Williams, this was their
fifth successive loss, giving them
a season record of six and eight,
with a one and two mark in Little
Three competition.

Wesleyan Leads

A red headed substitute. Nelson,
playing In place of the injured
Teachout, spelled the difference as
he hit for 18 points, mainly on
long, one-handed shots in the first
and second periods, to spark the
Cardinals to a 40-23 half-time lead

While Wesleyan was amassing
tills margin as the result of a
phenomenal 47 per-cent shooting
average the Ephnien could do little
save futilely foul the opposition,
resulting in Herb Smith's piling up
four personal fouls midway
through the second quarter while
Bill Sue.ssbrick committed three.
Williams Rallies

A revamped Williams team took
the floor for the second half and
quickly proceeded to put themselv-
es back In the game. Willi Smith
sitting on the bench. Bob Depopolo
took over at the right forward po-
sition and spearheaded tlie third
period offensive which saw the
Ephmen outscore Wesleyan 19-9
and narrow the gap to 48-42 with
ten minutes to play.

In spite of a full court press
which was employed throughout
the final quarter, the Ephmen
found themselves once again sty-
mied by the Wesleyan offense.
Points were traded on an even ba-
sis for the first five minutes of
tlie period, but two quick baskets
by the Cardinal's May, who was
high scorer with 20 points, with
four minutes to go put the game
on ice, giving Wesleyan their third
\iclory against ten losses.

Plansky Receives Track Honors
For N.E. Sports Hall of Fame

Saturday, Feb. 23 — In 1920, a young man named Tony Plansky
Kraduated from Georgetown University, carrying with him one of
the most brilliant athletic careers known to the nation at that
time. On the gridiron, as well as on the cinder-paths, the big boy
from South Boston excelled to a perfection which caused many to
liken the "Georgetown Great" to the immortal Jim Thorpe.

Plan.sky's name found mention on .several of the mid-1920
All-America erid teams. In track, he captured the National De-
cathlon Championship in 1924; he took the intercollegiate honors
for the .same events in 1925. 1926. and asain in 1928 when he
placed fir.st in the Penn Belays.

After a professional football career with the New York Giants
had brought further acclaim, Plansky entered the professional
ba.seball ranks where he en.toyeri two very succe.ssful years.

With such an illustrious record, it was with fitting 'tribute
that Tony Plansky should be elected to the New England Sports
Hall of Fame, for in the minds of many sports fans of yesteryear,
Plansky remains as the greatest all-around athlete ever developed
in New England. It was All American Benny Friedman who said
of Plansky: "He was one of the most magnificent athletes I have
ever known."

Wesleyan Today;
In Medley Relay

Martin Duels Barth
In Feature Contest

By Jacli Marr

Sat., Feb. 23— A powerful Wes-
leyan swimming team will invade
the Lasell Gymnasium pool this
afternoon as the Eph mermen
open their drive for the 1951-62
Little Three title. Wesleyan, with
five victories in seven starts should
provide strong opposition for the
twice-beaten Ephs.

I'he Cardinal standouts include
Captain Dick Barth in the dashes
and Jan Vandenberg in the dis-
tance events. Barth, imbeaten this
year, will be hard pressed in his
duel with Williams record-break-
ing Dick Martin, while Vanden-
berg, a consistant double winner
all season, may meet his match in
Ephs Don Jones and Joe Worth-
ington.

Todays meet may provide an-
Ephs Seek New Record
other Williams record, as the med-
ley relay combine of Dave Byerly,
Rick JeiTrey, and Dick Martin or
Don Jones could easily better the
pool and Williams records. In the
Connecticut meet the record was
narrowly missed, and the return of
the then-injured Rick JeiTrey may
provide the needed spark.

Another record po'-sibility exists
in the 50 yd. dash where Dick
Martin, recent bi'eaker of three
records will be facing Dick Barth,
who may force him to his best
time of the season. In the diving,
Ephs Max Rogers and Al Post face
Redbird Bill Meyer. Here Rogers,
a consistant point-maker all sea-
son, should gain the nod.

Track Squad to Run
In N. Y. Tournament

Now York. Feb. 22 — Twelve
members of the Williams win-
ter track squad will compete
in a total of six events in the
I. C. A. A. A. A. championship
meet in Madison Square Gar-
den this weekend, according to
Coach Tony Plansky.

Eph entries tentatively in-
clude Jack Brody, Al Fletcher
and Bill Miller in the sixty-
yard dash, George Steinbrenner
and Dick Walters in the hur-
dles, Ted Cypiot and George
Kelsey in the high jump, and
Joe Rice in the mile. In addi-
tion. Plansky has listed Pete
Cosgriff, Dana Fearon, John
Freese and Bob Jones in an
unusually strong field in the
600.

Committee, a group comprised of
the giaduate heads of Williams

mously this afternoon to do away
with all pre-initiation hazing and
replace the traditional Hell Week
with a Help Week.

Meeting with the Undergiad-

tee proposed this change as a
measure to gain more beneficial
lelations with surrounding com-
munities and to accomplish some-
thing useful with all the energy
that is now devoted to hazing.
No RushinK Quota.s

UC Rushing Committee Chair-
man Elliot Curtis '52 reported
the UC recommendations con-
cerning the elimination of frater-
nity quotas to the Tippy Com-
mittee for its consideration. Ac-
cording to the proceduie set up by
the Sterling Committee, the i-ec-
ommendations of both these com-
mittees must be given to the ad-
ministration which will make the
final decision.

The Tippy Committee stated
that it would make its report on
quotas before the beginning of
post-sea.son rushing this spring.

In an effort to strengthen dis-
cusion between the graduate and
undergraduate groups, the Tippy
Committee Invited members of the
1952-53 Undergraduate Council to
attend a meeting in New York City
this spring. No definite date was
set for the meeting.

light of their alumni home-com-
ing festivities, the Chi Psi's ded-
icated a new room in their cellar
to the late John L. Goodbody '08.

direction of Douglas Jolin,son '51.
all the woik on the room was done
by the Chi Psi undergraduates.
Last summer the corporation of
Chi Psi built the new stairway
which leads into the I'oom.

Large Bar

Functioning as a site for par-
ties, the room is constructed of
plywood panel walls, with a gray
cement floor. A .spacious bar, com-
plete with brass rail and dark red
linoleum covering, provides tlie
main attraction.

Fluorescent lights inset in the
ceiling and corner tables with
seats built in the walls add a club
atmosphere. Hanging on the wall
adjacent to the bar is a plaque in
honor of "Uncle John", as he was
known to the Chi Psi's.

R.P.I. to Present
Famous English
Ballet Performers

Dame Ninette deValois

Directs Sadler's Wells

Theatrical Company

Wednesday. Feb. 27 — England's
woiid famous Sadler's Wells Tliea-
trc Ballet will appear in Troy for
one performance on the night of
Maich 12. according to R.P.I, pub-
licity officers. The traveling Lon-
don company, which has broken
all attendance recoi-ds in its two
American tours, will be presented
al the R.P.I. Field House.

Directed since its birth by Dame
Ninette deValois. the group has
received the highest acclaim from
critics and public, and its fore-
most stai-s. such as Margot Fon-
tcyn and Moira Shearer, are class-
ed with the outstanding names
of contemporai'y ballet.

Active Since 1931

The company's name is derived
from its base at London's Sadler's
Wells Tlieatre, a structure dat-
ing back to Shakespeare's day. Its
ballet histoi-y started in 1931 and,
except for a brief wartime shut-
down, it has operated successfully
evei- since. Last summer the bal-
let gioup. which works in a.sso-
ciation with the government Aits
Council, was featured at the Fes-
tival of Gieat Britain,

Two weeks befoi-e the tickets for
the March 12 presentation in Troy
weie put on sale, forty pages of
mail and telephone ordeis had
been received, and officials state
that the demand continues to be
heavy. Seats are still available,
however.

Wednesday, Feb. 27 — The usual
routine of campus activities was
changed considei-ably last week
by the advent of the annual fra-
lernity hell week. Several of tlie
iJiojects assigned to the hapless
pledges contributed much to the a-
musement of the whole student
body.

Tcvliaps the mast spectaculai
house in tire humoi'ous hazing de-
partment was Phi Delta Theta.
While one of the pledges sat as-
tride a large snow mound on the
front lawn and shouted the time,
others wei'e seen wheeling such
vehicles as baby carriages and
children's carts to their cla.sses.

Scalping

The annual rivalry between the
Theta Delts and the Psi U's pro-
duced some bald freshmen in the
foimers delegation. Wlien sent to
Si.eai a mounted fish from the Psi
U clininy room tlrree Theta Delt
iieupnyies were caught, and all
emerged with shaved heads.

On ihe more sei'ious side of tire
iCdger, tlie Betas instituted a help
week instead of the usual hell week
I'li? members, as well as the pled-
ges, volunteered their services to
the cHy of North Adams and spent
Thursday in a snow clearance pro-
ject.

After the initiations on Friday
and Saturday evenings, the var-
ious fi-aternities settled back to
the noi'mal college life.

Hawkins' Baskets
Provide Triumph
In Overtime Play

Smith Captures Scoring

Honors, Paces Team;

Visitors Rally Late

by Jud Klein '54

Saturday. Feb. 23 — Jack Haw-
kins sank the second of a pair of
fi'ee thiows with only 19 seconds
remaining in a double overtime
pei'iod to provide Williams with
a 53-52 victory over Worcester
Polytechnic this afternoon. A Win-
ter Homecoming throng of nearly
1000 jammed Lasell Gym to wit-
ness the loosely played, but hair-
raising contest.

The win snaps a four-game los-
ing streak for Coacli Al Shaw's
cagers. The Ephmen remain inac-
tive now until Friday night, when
they take on a highly-touted
Spi-inpfield quintet hei-e.

.Smith Hot Early

Hawkins, playing in an unac-
customed substitute role, also
came through three times to tie
the score in the pressure-laden ac-
tion after W.P.I, rallied to forge
ahead for the first time with just
five minutes remaining. The Eph
foiward ended the afternoon with
a game total of ten points' four
of th»m coming in the cHmatic
second overtime session, after en-
tering the fray in the second per-
iod.

It was sophomore scoring ace
Herb Smith, however, who held a
iTvamped Purple lineup together
throughout a poorly played first
half. Outscoring the entii'e W.P.I,
team foi' tlie first two quartei-s.
Smith counted on eight of eleven
shots to spark single-handedly the
Ephs to a 25-16 halftime advan-
tage.

Switch from Zone

Switching from their previous
zone defense. Worcester took ad-
vantage of a cooled-off Smith to
stage a late third period i-ally
which enabled them to take a
41-40 lead willi five minutes re-
maining, when substitute Doug
McLaren netted seven straight
points. W.P.I, center Hai-ry Brown
a bulwark under the boards all af-
ternoon, scored on a hook and a
tup to bring his total to 20, second
beliind Smith's 21 points in the
game's personal scoring.

Successful fi-ec tlirows by Haw-
kins and surprise-starter Bob De-
Popolo, and a comer set by Co-
Capt. Ed Shudt kept the Eph def-
icit at one point. Then with 58
seconds left. Walt Creer sank his
end of a double foul to tie the
score at 45-45. Brown's last-

III the Williaiiis REC;OFD of Feb. 20 Ilavdfn Talliot '03
.stoics a Sonne! point at^aiiist diose who lecoiiimfiulcil coinpletf
hateniitv nicnibfisliip on the jrionnd that ihi' evil to In- rcnicclied
is the piMsoiial hcailach<'S of thosi- who don't get into fratcinitie.s.
Bill he is wiony in snpposiii^ that failnic to ijet into other liroup.s
is Inllv analojrons to failure to net into fraternities. The difference
is this: the noii-fraternitv itndent at Williams not only fails to
make a Irateruitv, hut in .» very real and painful sense he feels
e.\eluiled from membeishio in the collej^e commnnitv. Tliis is be-
cause in the absence of eollei;c provision of physical facilities for
the social life of all Williams students, the social dimension of
campus activity has necessarily become centered in the fraternities
as pri\ate orfanizatious. This is the institutional evil for which the
proposed Student Union is the correct atteinpt at solution.

Where Mr. Talbot fails to ackiiowledije a irciuiine evil, Fred
II. Hotb '21 withdraw' from his rcs])onsibility as an ahininus to
combat from within the imperfections of his Alma Mater. I do
not 'lere discuss his thoujilitless assumption that the fraternities
at Williams are irrevelant to the meanini^ of the institiition and
hence that it is shod.ly j'Tonnd to be concerned to maintain the
kind of college that most alumni will support. Quite apart from
this. I deplore the h- ir ^veather loyalty so moralistically proclaimed
bv Mr. Roth. Whar no.ssible evidence is there of the "profound
affecfioii h)r Willi: ms" which he boasts when he withdraws his
iirac'ical support ( n the occasion of a connuittee rejiort of which
he (rsani)ro\es? T.^e test of loyalty is remaiuini; within the family
evei> when von ft el forced to condemn what some of its nienibers
have done. Mr. F.ith dunks the test.

Current Williaiiij^iana

Bi/ John H. Alhiii

Back in the beKiiminj^ of No\cmber, the REC^ORD ran a
cartoon depictinf; what humorously was thought to be "what the
average Williams man wears." Picturinj; a fairly frrotesc)iie under-
siraduate, the cartoon exhibited a stranjje assortment of rep and
non-Ivy attire. But just how "shoe" is the average Williams student':'
Intrigued bv the (juestion and also re(|uired to write a )iaper on
the subject for History 9-a, 1 determined to take a poll and estab
lish some facts about the averasfe E))h wardrobe.

Emplovinjr the random samplini; method of tondiictin)i a
poll,! inter\iewed some fifty underi;raduates selected by taking
every twentieth man from the collejre address book. The end
result is supposed to be within five to eight per cent of the sartorial
situation on the campus.

This poll proved, of coiuse, that Williams is a j^retty re]5
place. But the degree of the standardization is (juite smprising.
The dress uniform— grey flannel slacks, a tweed or Shetland coat,
an Oxford cloth shirt with buttondown collar, a striped tie, argvles,
and plain toed shoes, can b(^ worn by over in'i\etv per cent of the
nndergraduate body. If statistics interest you, wade through a few
of these. Sixty-six per cent own at least one Oxford grey Haniu'l,
single breasted .suit. Worsteils and tweeds follow next in popu-
larity. Single breasted suits outmimber double brea.sted models
by four to one. The average undergraduate owns two and three-
fifths winter suits and one and three-fifths tweed or Shetland S))ort
jackets. Corduroy seems to be definitely out of taste as over two
thirds do not own sport coats of this type. Bla/ers and plaids are
not the rage that advertisers claim, as only one-fourth own prep
school or college blazers and only one-fifth sport have tartan
jackets. Cashmere sport coats are way down the line with a small
six per cent owning this tyjie. The average total nuinber of sport
jackets lies somewhere between two and three per student.
92% Wi//i Fhiwel Pants

In pants flannel is by far the most popidar material. Gabardine
comes next in liiu'. The number of odd dress slacks varies a good
deal with indi\'idual students, the lowest number being zero and
the highest ten pair. The median liiu' falls close to three. .X luxury
item, DAKS are found only in a six per cent minority, the same
.si.x per cent that wear cashmere coals. Only eight per cent of the
college do not own a pair of odd grey flannels or an Oxford grey
flannel suit.

The Williams shirt preference is overwhelmingly the Oxford
cloth, buttondown collar model. Only eight per cent fail to own
at least one of these. The individual coimt of dress shirts with all

styles of collars varies a good deal, the lowest number recorded
being six and the highest, twenty-four. The average number of
student shirts is approxiinateb twcKf anil a half. Only a tenth ol
the students have bought pink coloicd shirts, hut twenty per cent
own at least one of the round collar type, I'ractically no one seems
to buy more than two of this latter style. Fi\c-sixths ha\c solid
blue Oxfords. Figures prov<' that the freshman who wants to get
the really correit collegiate wardrobe should purchase bis white
and blue buttondowns in a ratio of lour whiles to one bine, al-
though some tasteful dressers have been known to viokile this rule
at limes. Oidv the Brooks Brothers and (lliipp shoppers (lilleen
per cent of the polices) weai the pulloN'cr shle shirt. E\eryone
has at least one white shirt, oddly enough.

Ninety per cent ha\e argyle hose, and a slightly larger per-
centage possess solid color, ribbed, woolen socks. Three-fourths ol
the students own more woolen socks than those made oul ol any
other material. Twenty-five per cent have silk hose, but the ma-
jority of these are used onK' on formal occasion. Nylon doi's not
seem to be popular with manv, but those who ha\e any socks ol
this material usually stick pretiominantlv to it. One student claims
ownership to ninety pair of soiks, but sixteen pair is ;i much more
a\'erage figure.

William B. Jones and Richmoud II. ()'!lile\ in their \()luine
of advice to eastern collegi' coeds entitled, "Weekend, :i Cirls'
Cuide to the College Weekend " say of the average Williams man's
footwear: "The man who hasn't got on his white bucks, properly
sculled of comse, is an outcast. Tlu'V usually appe;n' betore the
ice is out of the river in the spring and ne\ei conn- oil till its time
for galoshes again." If this statement is true, then a large forty-
foiu- (ler cent of Williams men are outcasts. When the large num-
ber of non-white buck wearers becomes well known, undergrad-
uates will probably rush out and buy up the local supply to get
Williams back in the kind reg;u(l of true l\y Leaguers [ones and
O'Riley. Plain toe cordovans are the most popular tlress shoe with
sixty per cent having at least one jjair of this Uiie. Scotch grains
follow next at the fortv-six i^er cent mark. Loafers seem to be just
as popular percentagewise as white bucks.

Striped Ties All But Uuicersvl

Neckwear is a difiicult item to poll. First of all, nobody wants
to coimt up all his countless ties and secondly, nobody knows the
diderence between wool chalets and ancient madders or between
reps and regimentals. In spite of these dilliculties, nin<'ty-h)ur jier
cent acknowledge owniership to at least one striped tie, and the
majority have a small number ol solids, plaids, bows, knits, foul-
ards, chalets and ancient mailders. Most of the polices merely
lnin|5ed tlu'sc last three categories into the single tvpe ol sniiill pat-
terns in general. For a sim|)le explanation ol dillerenti'S in textine,
material, pattern, and worth see either the House ol Walsh or the
Williams Co-op. The foin-in-h;m(l knot beats out the larger Wind-
sor by ten jicr cent of the undi'rgradnates on cam|5ns. Most Wind-
sor tiers, however, stipulate ;i half-Windsor or a very tight full
Windsor. Loud, large pattern ties are in evidence in only a twen-
tieth ol the men polled. Some, however, admitted concealing a
few for vacations in the Midwest.

/•'(■((• \'r,s7,v. Hats. Black Shoes

A lew final details. Oidv an insignificant lour per cent ever
wear a vest matching a suit. A fifth have plaid or tattersoll waist-
coats, but ninety-five per cent state that thev generally never wear
a \est. Four per cent admit donning a felt hat when it is not rain-
ing, but the rest limit wearing any sort of dress head wear to such
inclement weather. Black shoes are worn only for .\FIU)TC. Naval
Reserve, and formal occasions Fortv-six per cent find tlieinscKes

Early Cardinal Wins
Fatal to Grapplers

Facing one of the most, power-

Williams wrestlers today bowed to
the Wesleyan matm.en by the
.score of 19-9. After dropping the
day's first three matches, the
Ephs battled back to take three
straight bouts and move back in-
to the running.

As usual, it was the Williams
middle weiglit men who proved
strongest. Bob Shorb. Dick Gor-
don, and Captain Bill Callaghan,
consistent winners all season, were
the only winning Ephmen today.

The match opened disastrously
for the Eplis, as Cardinals Dave
Sims pinned Eph Rod Cover.
Wesmen Morrison and Kauter fol-
lowed with wins over Ephs Dimock
and Williams in the 130 and 137
lb. matches. At this point the Ephs
trailed 13-0.

Bob Shorb then gained the first
Eph victory by decisioning Wes-

followed with a win over Card

Gordon made the score 13-9 with

College Squash Loop

For Chi Psi House

Wednesday, Feb. 27— The Phi
Gams, boasting a well balanced
team, remained on top of the
Tuesday division of the intramur-
al basketball league, when they
won their fourth straight con-
test of the year. The fine play-
ing of Doug Foster. Terry Cana-
van and Bob Ouchterloney was
instrumental in the 25-8 victory
over a weak Saint Anthony team.

The Dekes remained in a second
place tie with the Theta Delts by
virtue of a close 17-16 overtime
win against the Phi Sigs.
Theta Delts Win

Cal Collins led the Theta Delts
to a convincing 26-10 win over the
Sig Phis, which kept them even
witht he Dekes. The DUs evened
up their record for the year as
they edged Psi U, 19-15.

The Chi Psis continued to pace
the Thursday league as they beat
the D Phis 23-18. Paul Doyle led
the winners with 12 points. The
Alpha Dells, who have played one

less game, remained in a virtual

lie for first by their 21-15 win
over the Phi Dells. Endy Perry
and Bill Mi.ssimer, who gave the
AD.s a distinct height advantage,
were an important factor in the
wauier's third straight win. In
other Tlnusday activity Jim Zeig-
ler and John Hall led the Betas to
a 20-10 win over the Kaps.

Noted Liberal Attacks
Present Arms Race

ruesday. Feb. 26~-Sponsored by
the Williams Lecture Committee.
Dr. Max Lerner. Professor of A-
inerican Civilization at Brandeis
University, lecturer at New York's
New School of Social Research,
and columnist for the "New York
Post", delivered a speech on "1952:
Men and Ideas" in Je.sup Hall at
8 p.m. this evening.

Dr. Lerner. Professor of Politi-
cal Science at Williams from 1938
to 1943. called the campaign year
a "year of .shows", particularly
in this era of television.

Taft Called Archaic

In a run-down of the various
Republican candidates. Dr. Lcmer
called Senator Robert A. Taft
"one of the greatest minds of the
nineteenth century." maintaining
that the Ohioan's political policies
showed little progress from those
of his father. William Howard
Taft.

"Taft's .strength lies in the past
failures of the Republican can-
didates." said the lecturer, as he
characterized Thomas E. Dewey's
11)48 campaign as "positive geniu.s
111 snatching defeat from the very
.laws of victory."

Favors Warren

Dr. Lerner. speaking frankly
from a liberal's viewiJoint. named
Governor Earl Warren of Calif-
ornia the only non-conservative
Republican candidate. He called
General Eisenhower a con.servative
attempting to remain above po-
litical conflict.

Douglas MacArthur. he feels,
will make a strong impression at
the Republican convention and
may prove like "the man who
came lo dinner." His nomination,
however, would involve a liighly
dangerous experiment with a
"man on hor.seback".

Truman To Run?

If corruption remains a major
issue. Dr. Lerner believes that
President Truman will not run, al-
though he does want another
term. Senator Esles Kefauver of
Kentucky and Govenor Adlai

Wednesday. Feb. 27— Howard

Biuce Van Dusen '53 replaces Jim

Production '(Tnpretentions'

Wednesday's production bore
ihroughout a delightful aura of
happiness. Full of sympatliy for
young love and natural gaiety,
Moliere's creation becomes a high-
ly zcstful and unreflective exer-
cise. It is to the credit of the cast
that much humanity permeated
this unpretentious comedy. Agnes
is thus .seen as a charming inno-
cent, and even Arnolph is a sym-
pathetic figure whose debacle
comes when he desires something
contrary to nature and common
sense.

We have here a leal and rather
interesting plot with no creeping
investigations which fail to fur-
ther the action. The naive con-
fessions of Agnes together with
the unguarded confidence reposed
by Horace in his rival, and tlie
stifled rage of Arnolph against
both, form a series of comic scenes
of the most amusing, and at the
same time, of the most i-efined
description.

Vehicle for .\rnulph

Wlien you get right down to it.
this engaging comedy is pretty
much a solor affair. Arnolph mo-
tivates and .sustains the action
almost continually. He is onstage
for all but four minutes of the
performance and he delivers no

New Italian Tragedy

Now in rehearsal, Luigi Piran-
dello's modern Italian tragedy,
"Henry IV" opens on the .stage of
the Adams Memorial Theatre for
a three-day rini beginning March
26

Director David C. Bryant, Jr.
described the season's fourth stu-
dent production as one of the
most difficult undertaken in re-
cent years because of complex plot,
varied characterization, and lavish
scenery and costoming.
Casting Problems

The large number of Important
speaking roles in the play further
complicated the director's pro-
blems. The list of principles in-
cludes Martin Conovitz '53 as
Henry IV, Sally Long as the Mar-
cliloness Matilda Spina, Dorothy

Sprague as Frlda, and Joseph De-
wey '52 as Baron Belcredi.

Other students taking major
parts are Theodore Weems '55 as
Dr. Genoni. Daniel Miller '55 as
Harold. John Johnston '54 in the
role of Landolph. Thomas Bell '55
as Ordulpli. Gilbert Holtzman '53
playing Berthold. and Timothy
Beard '53 as John.

Friens Insanity

The plot is based around action
which sees a modern-day Italian
aristocrat, pretending in.sanity,

Student-Faculty Control,
New Kitchen Facilities
Planned for Next Fall

Saturday. March 1 — Beginnuig
next fail, a temporary Student
Union will be in operation at the
IJicscm Alumni Hou.se near the
loot of Spring Street, Following
the Alumni Banquet last Sunday,
the Executive Committee of the
Society of Alumni offered the col-
lege the use of its building until
a permanent Student Union can
be constructed.

At present, the Alumni House
consists of three large lounging
rooms and a small bar. The only
alterations w-ill be the addition of
a wing at the east end of the
building to house the West College
Room and a .small kitchen with
.sandwich and snack facilities.
Rustic Decor
Constructed in 1941. largely
through the work of Ralph Per-
kins '09. the building bears a pre-
vailing rustic and colonial at-
mosphere. The large and high-
ceilinged Dodge Memorial Room
which comprises the present east
wing is graced by ceiling beams,
an upright piano, a deerhead. and
a large fireplace topped by a win-
ter view of Mt. Greylock done ui
oils by Dwight Shepler '28.

A smaller but equally impressive
north room is similar in decor,
with writing desks, game tables,
a fireplace and two large murals
of Colonel Eph Williams by Stan-
ley Rowland. These two large
lounges are joined by a low-ceil-
inged. intimate room which leads
off the entrance hall and contains
;i iliir SHiT-rol lahlps. and i\ wealtl^
of photographs and sketches on
the walls.

Alumni Retain Use
At present, the house also con-
tains a small kitchen, a cloak
room and a lavatory, along with a
powder room and rooms for three
faculty members upstairs. The new
wing will lead olf the Dodge Room,
and its addition should tuni the
building into a creditable .social
center for alumni and students.

The house is expected, however,
to revert to the use of the alumni
on big weekends such as last
week's Homecoming.

Before students can secure the
use of the building, an effective
system of management must be
decided upon, Ii is probable that
a joint board oi students and fac-
ulty will be selected to handle the
affairs of the Union

Vote on McCIellan Plan
A Vital Necessity

Action to proiiurtc tlio is.sue of total fiatcmity membership
reached a i)eak last month with the all-collcire vote on the .stniif;ht
bomice plan and then dropped almo.st out of e.xistence on the
canii«i.s. Final examinations, the Trustees ainionncement of coni-
mun:'l freshman eatinij and plans for a Student Union, house-
part\, hell week, and the Rmuaine misfortune have all eomhined
to draw tlie center of campus attention a\\a\' from the (|ni'Stion of
coinplete fraternitv membership. Hut this issue, this matter of
vital concern just will not be forced into the baeku;ronnd for lonjr.
.Afjaii the issue has come to the forciiround.

(.'ertainlv the Leai!;e for Total Membership has a \alid arj^u-
nienf for proposing another student \'otc on the 100'/ member.ship
P'()hl"ni at this time. Nothini; in the last \()te would indicate that
the vote was an all inclusi\i' Note that determined that all wavs
and means for this reform would be nnacci'iitable to Williams
underjiradnates. jannarv's xote merel\- proved that the so-called
"straight bounce |)lan" was not the most desired plan. In all fair-
ness to the advocates of complete memberslu'i") who felt the straight
bounce would lead to too i^reat a decree ol house strati! ication.
another vote nmst be planned. This vote must determine whether
there are enouL'h backers of a more egalitarian ]ilau to ]iut total
membi'rship into effect.

In view of the Trustees' action to institute deferred rushiui;
and communal freshman dinius^, it becomes more imperative that
a vote on a plan designed to eliminate lunise stratification be
considered as sooji after the new Underijradnate Coimcil takes
over on March 10 as jiossible. Such spe<'d is called for because
of the limited amount of time between the time the 1952-53
(Council jrnins control and the beninninsr of Sjirinn Vacation.

Deferred rnshinn will obviouslv cause an increase in the
percentage of frato'rnitv men from the nppi'r three classes. \Vhen
the new svstem of sophomore rushing uoes into effect, both the
houses and the men beinu rn.shed will know more about the
actual situation of house ranking. The houses will know which are
the most desirable men, and the rnshees will know which houses
are the best. Athletes will be drawn to athletic houses to a jr'eiiti'i'
degree than is now the case. All the stratification that will result
from deferred rushing will be harmful to the Williams social
system. Perhaps the greatest advantage of Freshmen Week pledg-
ing is the residtant comiiarative etiualitv of houses, where each
is a small cross section of Williams as a whole. Broadening of
liersonalitv and contacts with all tyjies of students are the great-
est arguments against stratification. If some egalitarian plan such
as the McCIellan Plan is not seriously considered and ado))ted
before deferred rushing becomes a realitv, the advantages which
Williams now enjoys under non-stratification will be lost. Wi-
urge the present Undergiaduate Council and its successor to
consider that deferred rushing will bring stratification unless the
student body accepts some e<|ualizing plan before the fall of 1953.

Letters to the Editor

Union Exterior

Fehruarv 9, 1952
To the Editor of the Record:

Congratulations on vour sensible and moderate editorial "Tlie
New Union". I particularlv like vour idea that "the huilding must
he attractive cnouaJi to make stmlenln use it jrom the utart".
(italics mine).

In inv opinion, "attractive" needs to be interpreted primarily
in terms of those who will use this building, not in terms of a
theory of architecture which has jilagued this campus for aiiprox-
imately a hundred years. Why is it that the Art Department
caimot in good conscience, much as it would like to do so, wax
enthusiastic about the design of anv building erected for Williams
students since the Lawrence Hall octagon (1846)? Lehman Hall
and the S[)uash Comts, jierhaps; the interior of the Theater, cer-
tainly, but as certainly not its exterior. The Science Labs are
excellent remodelling jobs, and the Biology Lecture Hall is
exactly what I mean by 'attractive", though the outside does not
create anv such expectation.

We have been bewitched (bothered and bewildered) by
Georgian and Gothic dreams. We have taken an attitude which
would have prevented, in their day. the invention of the very build-
ings we have sought to imitate. But even good imitations (Chajiin)
sometimes make inefficient solutions for modern use. Fortunately
for the futme. today'.s costs preclude a repeat of such extrava-
gances.

Perhaps I am mistaken, but 1 believe there is strong and
growing .student sentiment (bv no means a merely local peculiar-
ity) for a fine modern building on the Williams campus. Not one
of glass and concrete, but one showing a fresh use of traditional
materials deriving from the needs of the building itself. To
be clear, I mean a building like the new MIT dormitory, rather
than tlie new CJraduate Center at Harvard. We could have had
a theater comparable to Wisconsin's, outside as well as inside.
Now we have another chance in the Student Union, and the site
chosen olfers fascinating po.ssibilities. Vassar. plagued by much
worse architecture than ours, has an interesting new dormitory
whicli, I am informed, the girls would rather live in than in the
several earlier confections.

Tlie most important thing about our new Student Union
if seems to me, is that it should be attractive to Williams students.
its exterior as well as its interior. Tliose of us who are older
.shoidd remember that time marches on - even in institutional
architecture where it is likely to be very heavy-footed.

Sincerely,

S. Lane Faison, Jr.

Open Letter to the UC

Fchrnary 28, 1952
Open Letter to the UC:

liie piupose of this letter is to request that the UC sponsor
another vote on the (|nestioii of total niembcr.ship in fraternities,
this time under a plan which will be more acceptable to all
parties - tlie Mctllellaii Plan.'

We teel that since the last college vote, two very ijnporlant
lacts are evident. Tlu' first is that niaiiy votes against the plan
»l total menihersbip were not against total nienibeisliip, hut rather
against the "straight hoimcc system" which some advocates ol
total membership could not, in all good conscience, accept as an
inprovemeiit.

The second is the action of the Board of Trnst<-es which in-
stitutes deferred rushing and freshman cDinniniial i-ating as ol
J953. Assmning about fifty men to he about the avcrag<' imniinuj].
which each liou.se at Williams needs to break even on dining room
and kitchen costs, the Trustee clirectivo means that the lift)- men
Number 7 '"'"'.' ^^' *'.''^'-'" f''"'" t'l'' upper three classes instead of, as prev ious-
ly, from four classes. Allowing lor some .scholastic mortality and
other reasons for dropping out of college this means that each
Iraternity must then pledger// k'asi twenty men at the proper time,
and thus insure their own financial sob ency.

This means, in effect, that iwaih/ all Williams men will in
the future be pledged to houses; probably no more than ten or
fifteen men will be left out each year. We'fi'i'l that a veiy strong
case could be made out, iu the name of humanity, iinre and
simple, tor the adoption of total rushing. For the "left-outs" after
1953 tlie situation will be nearly iutoleralile; instead of having
about twenty per cent of the college to consort with, these men
will be 111 the muiority of about five per cent. They will he iirae-
ticaliy incapable of any activity, and we fed, seriously emotionally
ctamaged by knowing that they are the one man out of twenty
wlio was considered impossible to live with by fiffeeii different
ami imlependeut luiits of theii fellow Williams liieu.

Furthermore, absorbing these men nierely means that each
louse would hav e to take only one, or at most two more men We
leel that the true Ix-iiefits of Iraternity living and .sociability will
not be (hiniaged by the addition of these one or two men since
111 tact the traternity's Ireedom to reject is alrc^ady seriously ini-
pairetl l)v delerred rushing, which in turn hirces large delegations

We leel that adoption ol total uieiiibership will serve to im-
prove the campus situation gi-nerallv ami .stop the harmhil publi-
city cucnlatmg that "Williams thinks this is LS.52 and not 19.52"
We leel that this adoption hv the student body of Williams will
not <>i,lv impair the Iraternitv s benehts to anv serious extent but
will improve the academic and .social climate here on campus

-Vccordingly we are suggesting that the UC vote to have a
campus-wide vote on the .McCIellan plan, and endorse this plan
It will, we leel, retain a certain amount of selectivity which men
111 ratennties so want, while at the same time it will not result iu
a dangerous stratification or "typing of houses," such as many
feared the straight hounce would. The .McCIellan Flan comes
closest we feel to recouciling those two inipoitaiit points of "iiicln-
sion instead of exclusion" and fuller campus dcmocracv, on the
one hand and tlir' right of a man to choose his friends, and select
Ins Inothers . on the other which we will continue to respect in
accordance with this plan.

Sincerely,

to all houses. On the basis of second period bids, the non-affiliates
are divided into three groups, judging by the number of bids
received: 1) those with the most bids (theoretically 11 to 15)'

Speed Deferred Rushing

To the Editor of the RECORD:

Wfl.vter"' ^""'""'"^ ''''"''' '" "'"'"'" '" "" "/"'" letter to President

r R '1 IT, '.'■"'.''■/" "■"■"'',' '^'''"'' '^2 Ex-president of the former
i-,arfielcl Club, inlormmg him of the decision of the trustees

help implement the Fnistees' decision.

It seemed that die only tiling that was holding hack deferred

iithhates would eat in Currier Hall.

If this isn't ])ossihle then it might be feasible to feed the
upper class ii.m-aHiliates in the Alumni House. If the kitchen
taei ities m the Abunni J-Iouse aren't ade(|iiate then the College
could fix It up on a temporarv basis until such time that the new
eating hall would be huilt.

In offering this suggestion it might appear that I am being
impulsive and a hit over anxious, but this is because I and others
liave been frustrated in our attempts to see the will of the College
community put into effect. I am writing this letter with the hope
that the suggestions made when put into effect would relieve the
present situation and that it will jret fair consideration from you.

Ray's Praise

^ . February 26, 1952

To the Editor of the RECORD:

I noticed that the distinguisbed name of C. Elliot is buried
way down among the "a.ssociate editors" of your worthy journal.
Because of the rich contribution he made to your February 23rd
issue in his brilliant article on sex-as-hiiind-in-Spring-Street win-
dows we think he should be summarily elevated to .some point
nearer to the one you so deservingly hold.

Of course in this instance we are prejudiced, hut we think
that articles as pithy as this help much to give the HRCX)RD a
special kind of color which it has sadly lacked in the drah days
of the recent past.

Everyone liere was deeply appreciative of the spirit, accuracy
and fine jmirnalistic style that the aforementioned Mr Elliot
blendtHl together so neatly in this small masterpiece. I

THE WILLIAMS RECORD SATURDAY, MARCH 1, 1852

HEADLINER

By KolUKlaii

111 Seplember, 1950, the WilUiims College athletic staff was blessed
with the addition of former Olyiripic tompetltor, Ralph Townsend,
who was appointed to fill the capacity of sklinit coath. Today, after
only a >«''>«■ *"<• " '"'"■ ""^ "niastermlnd" is on the verge on closing
out one of the most successful skiing seasons Williams College han
known in many a year.

Replacing former coach, Jim Parker, Townsend also assumed
handlinK of frosh football with Bobby Coombs and this Spring, he
will take over reins for the varsity lacrsse team. Hwever, It Is the
winter sport In which the diminutive mentor excels.

With the loss of only Captain McWilliams from last year's squad
(and with the arrival of long awaited decent skiing conditions) Town-
send has been able to bring along and develop many of the potentially
talented men into top-notch performers. Sophomore Joe Foote has
reifived well-deserved praise for his remarkable improvement in both
the cross country and jumping events. Bob Tucker is another who has
eorne a long way under the two-year tutelage of Ilalph Townsend, a-
long with a host of others.

Placlni! sixth at the Dartmouth Winter Carnival was. In Ralph's
mUid, the hiKh point of the sea.son, as the Purple were able to pull
ahead of two Class A teams, SI. Lawrence and Syracuse. Captain Ned
Collins, and Pete Callahan w,.>re both Instrumental in the team's top
showing.

Last week at Lyndonville, Vermont, without the services of the
injured Ned Collins, the WilMams stalwarts successfully defended
tlic c;iass B title, finishing well aliead of the runner-up Bowdoin crew.
Both the jumping and cross country events were monopolized by Wil-
liams winners, as the Ephmen for the second year in a row earned a
pliue in the Class A finals.

Tills week-end finds Coacli Townsend leading Ills crew of "snow-
men" into the A ranks where tlie Ephmen will oppose nine top col-
lege teams. Middlebui-y, Dartmouth. New Hampslilre, Vermont, Sy-
racuse. St. Lawrence and R.P.I, are the other U.S. entries, while from
north of the border in Canada come stars from McGlll and Laval Uni-
versities. Should the William'; men place in any one of the first
seven spots, then they would be automatically eligible for Class A
rating come next winter.

Townsend feels that the team spirit this year has been exception-
ally high and he could not emphasize enough that "the success
axhievcd by the skiing team this year has been duo to th fact that
they have worked together as a unit, as a group, — as a team. Indi-
vidualism (tempting as it may bei and all the glory that goes with
heing the Individual star have been sacrificed for teamwork!" And
jjisl take a look at the results: a very bright showing at Dartmouth,
a victory at Lyndonville, and high hopes for success against the top
skiing powers of the East.

The cioss country and downhill competition will be running at
While Face Mountain. close-b.\ New York's beautiful Lake Placid.
The slalom and jumping events take place at Canton, N. Y., sight of
St. Lawrence University.

Hopes a re that Ned Collins' wrenched knee will be well healed
for the non-intercollegiate "Harvard Slalom" at Bromley on March 9.

For Little Three Championship

In Sprints, Diving

by Ted Oviatt

Saturday, March 1— The Wil-
liams varsity swimmers travel to
Amherst today for their final
meet of the season. The Little
Three championship will be at
stake, since both teams have
trounced Wesleyan.

Past performances seem to give
the Ephmen a slight edge, but the
rivalry between the two schools is
always sufficient to foil compara-
tive time predictions. Both teams
made good showings against the
Bowdoin natators and lost by
slight margins.

Martin Favored

Williams star Dick Martin is
expected to bring home victories
in both the 50 and the 100 yard
free-style, although he will en-
counter strong opposition from
Tate and Krudenier of Amherst.
John Belash and Sam Klmberly
serve to give added strength to
the Eph sprint department.

Two outstanding performances
against Wesleyan last week give
Williams high hopes in two other
events. If they can repeat these
feats, Don Jones in the 220 yard
free-style and Max Rogers in the
diving are likely winners.

by Ned HepenstaU '55

Wednesday, Feb. 27— The Wil-

ches this week, travelling to Wes-
leyan yesterday to trounce the
Cardinals, 9-0, in an effort to re-
tain their Little Three champion-
ship, but bowing to a visiting
Yale team 7-2 today.

A highly-touted Yale team
came lo Williamstown with a re-
cord .showing but one loss, a 5-4
defeat at ihe hands of Army,
which had in turn beaten the Ephs
G-3. Oi added interest was the
attraction of the Squires-Murphy
match, which determined the
number two-seeded man in the

Murphy Beats Squires

A packed gallery was on hand to
watch Dick Squires, Purple ace,

over Clirlstmas vacation, but had
lost in the intercoUegiates last
year. Murphy bested Squires in
three straight games, 15-14; 15-11,
and 15-6, keeping the upper hand
in every game with his aggressive
game and tricky corner shots.

"Soapy" Symington, playing
number two, beat Ewing of Yale

after only a minute of scrimmage
as John Beard streaked inside
Hamilton defensemen to slap in a
Pike-Harvey pass set up. Bod
Starke, Purple goal tender, shut
out the opposition until at 2:03
of the second frame Wing Tom
May hit the cage with screen shot.
Beard Nets Second

Less than three minutes remain-
in the second period when the
Williams first line followed a tie-
breaking Hamilton marker with a
goal of its own. Beard, again tak-
ing passes from Pike and Harvey,
rifled a corner shot through goal-
ie Gauder's pads to even the count
at 2-2.

With injuries having cut the
Williams line up to a single de-
fense and two lines without re-
placements, the team's chronic
3rd period collapse was inevitable

Fate of Oldest College Observatory
Unknown as Astronomers Move Out

Inj Hali>h Aikrii '5-/
■"I'Ir' lirst pi'iiiiaiii'iit Anu'iicaii ohsi'iAutorv is still staiidiiiH,"
Professor T. 11. Salloril proudly proi'laiiiicd in lfiS,S, in an ailclress
coiniiK'inoratiiiij; tlic (ilticth aniiixcisuiv of tlu- Hopkins Obstnv-
iitoiy. It .stands toilav on the .south side of llii' Ik'rksliiic (,)uad,
and, while astrouoMiital activities takt' place in niodeiu (|Maiteis
ill the jilivsics hiiikhiin, it leinaiiis a curious and little-known
part of the caiiipns' past.

The explorer will find on the first iloor a central rotunda and
two winjis. The heinis|)herical ceiliuii of the rotunda is dark blue,
and paper stars pasted on it represent Williams' limited claim to it's

this country. Antique astronom-
ical equipment is scattered about;
some of the original instruments
ai-e still in the west wing.
Dome Lost
Up in the revolving dome is a
telescope mounted there in 1852;
the fate of the orisiinal one, and
also of the hemispherical dome
which the present water-tower
affair has since replaced, remain
one of the astronomy depart-
ment's unsolved mysteries.

A look out the window tells the
reason for the building's present
d.suse. Trees hide the southern
skies, while at night the lights of
the campus and Spring Street
make observation in other direc
lions impossible. Most of the ma-
teriiii, wonderful in its day, is
now outdated, and the building
coniuins no heat or running wa-
ter, i'he last class before the move
to the physics building met there
in liij fall of 1950.

Once Busy
Eijcted at a cost of $2,075 in
1838, largely through the efforts
of professor Albert Hopkins, who
quarried some of the stones for
ils walls himself, it once stood in
the center of the Berkshire Quad
and was the scene of much ac-
uiviiy. Although the off-campus
I'ield Memorial Observatory stole
its thunder for a while after 1882,
that fell into disuse, and in 1922
astronomical activity moved back
to the old building. In the mean-
time, it had been moved to its
present position, where the Smed-
ley Terrace was built around it
in 1908.

Plans have been suggested for
preserving this distinquished relic
as an astronomical museum. The
central rotunda could be convert-
ed into a small-scale plantearium
while the wings might house dis-
plays of Early American instru-
ments. But, at present there is
little activity in the oldest as-
tronomical observatory still in
existance in the United States.

Wednesday, Feb. 27— "A Career
in Banking", a speech given to-
night in the Chi Psi House by
Herbert Holden '42, Assistant
Cashier of the National City Bank
of New York, was the first in a
series of vocational guidance talks
sponsored by the Placement Bu
reau. These talks will be given
periodically by alumni who have
been successful in their various
fields, and a question and dis-
cussion period will follow each.

President James Phinney Bax-
ter III '14 and Paul Wright '27
nead of ihe math department at
Groton School, will be the princi
pal speakers on the topic. "Tea
ch«ng as a Career", to be discussed
on Wednesday, March 5, at 7; 30
r". M. at the Kappa Alpha House,
ihe subject of graduate study
and college teaching will be cov-
ered by President Baxter, while
Mr. Wright, a member of long
standing of the Groton family,
will iittack the problem from the
piep school side.

Lerner . . .

Stevenson of Illinois appear as the
most popular candidates if Mr.
Truman declines the nomination.

Dr. Lerner, who said, "I'm just
mild about Harry," named his
choices for the Democratic nom-
ination: Justice William O. Doug-
las of the Supreme Court, and for-
mer OPA administrator Chester
Bowles.

Stressing the fact that all can-
didates are bound by an environ-
ment of Cold War diplomacy- and
economics. Dr. Lerner condemned
the present arms race as the
world's most serious problem. He
stated, however, that future his-
torians will praise the Truman
administration for its vigorous
policy, citing the Atlantic Pact,
NATO, and the Marshall Plan as
especially strong points.

In closing. Professor Lerner rec-
ommended that the U. S. level oft
its re-armament program, make
use of economic and ideological
weapons and present to the world

Snow Brightens
Sheep Hill Hopes

Canning Feels Ski Slope
May Not Lose Money

Monday, Feb. 25— Gordon Can-
ning '53, student manager of the
Sheep Hill ski run, announced to-
day ihat the local slope may be
able to pay tor itself this winter
for the first time in three years.
Shjep HUl Wi.s formerly operated
oy tiie Williams Outing Club, but
was later turned over to college
administration because of the
large losses incurred in recent
years.

Poor conditions in the past few
years have strictly curtailed the
amount of skiing in this locality,
allowing only five of an expected
forty-two days last year. The
management of the run was op-
pressed with similar conditions
this year until the advent of the
phenomenal flurry which blan-
keted illiamstown two weeks ago.

Last weekend proved to be a
blessing as 280 skiers Invaded the
slopes to test and perfect their
abilities. Response to night skiing
last Friday did not reach expec-
tations, but the management plans
to continue this opportunity on
Tuesday, Thursday, and Saturday
nights as long as there is suffi-
cient snow.

Travel Bureau Elects
Phelps to Presidency

Tuesday, Feb. 26— The Tra-
vel Bureau held its annual e-
lection of officers today at 5:30
in Jesup Hall. Elected president
was Charles Phelps '53, a mem-
ber of Sigma Phi. The other
two officers are John Mabie
■54, vice president, and Steve
Livingston '54, business mana-
ger.

Hockey . . .

Starke at 1:11 to give his team
a one goal margin.

George Crowley, wing for the
second Hamilton line, scored at
mid-period, beating Starke on a
long shot from the left side of the
rink. At 19:25 the third goal of
the period, picked up by Tom
May. concluded the scoring with
Williams trailing 5-2.

Assuming that weather per-
mits, the team will take on Nor-
wich at the Cole Field rink Sat-
urday night at 7:30. Having drop-
ped an earlier encounter to Nor-
wich 7-2, the team will have to
flght to win this one.

Swimming . . .

swimming in the number two spot
for Amherst in this event, while
Dave Byerly will carry the Wil-
liams colors.

Geitner of Amherst and Rick ■
Jeffrey will battle it out in the
200 yard breast-stroke, while
Baum of Amherst and Douglas of
Williams will be equally close for
the third spot.

Coach Muir feels that the out-
come of the meet could well be de-
cided by the final relay. Although
Amherst, with Waste. Geitner, and
Tate, will be very strong in the
opening medley, the power of the
Williams aggregation makes this
race a toss-up.

The 400 yard relay will be an-
other close one, and this provides
an exciting setting for the event
that perhaps will decide the Little
Three championship.

Frosh Underdogs

At the same time the Eph
freshmen will oppose the Lord
Jeff yearlings in a Little Three
contest. Amherst has the edge, but
the performances are close enough
so that anything can happen.

Pete Hunt appears to be the best
in the field in the 100 yard free
style. In addition Gene Latham in
the 200 yard free-style and Eric
Gustafson in the 200 yard breast-
stroke are also possible Eph win-
ners.

Players . . .

less than eight monologues. In
Jie guise of J. Robert Dietz Ar-
nolph is both easily comprehend-
ed and directly sympathetic. In-
asmuch as Mollere wrote no ex-
tensive stage directions, Dietz' in-
terpretation was extremely ori-
ginal and high-handed. Bits of
Da.siness such as his ladder climb,
cane waving, and variety of ex-
pressive motions made the lines
seem even funnier than the way
Mollere wrote them.

Every once in a while we run
into one of those extremely talene-
ed performers whose very pre-
sence on stage, tor no apparent
reason at all, is enough to send us
into paroxysms of laughter. Louis
Camuti. Jr. as the notary falls in-
10 thi.s category. Perhaps it was
his cal-likc walk, his facial ex-
pressions, or the way he spoke
nis lines; I'm not quite .sure
which; but Mr. Camuti was cer-
tainly a very funny fellow.

The .sporting cast headed by
William Kearns as Alain, Bren-
nan Moore as Horace, and Pat
Barnett as Georgette were equal-
ly effective. They gave the pro-
duction a pace and rhythm which
the original verse version must
have had considerable difficulty
to sustain. The delightful variety
of walks, capers and gambols dis-
played by this dynamic group
was original and hilarious.

New Amherst Total Rushing Plan
Stresses Flexible Quota System

Proposal Secures
Conditional Favo

Undergraduate Leaders
Vote Approval, 28-14

by Charles Elliott '54

Amherst, Feb. 25— A petition foi-
total rushlnn won conditional ap-
IHOval by undergraduate leaders
here tonliiht. The new plan em-
phasizes the fact that no house
is forced to take men they do not
want.

Designed by three upperclass-
men. the proposed proRram in-
tends to miike It mathematically
Ijosslble for all freshmen who de-
.siie to afflllat* with a fraternity
to Join a house this year.
New Quota System

A revised .system of determln-
iiiR quotas constitutes the basis
of the plan. Any freshmen de-
.siiing to Join the Lord Jeff Club,
Amherst's counterpart of the old
Garfield Club, are free to do so at
any time during the rushmg sea-
.soii, which starts Sunday.

Under the program submitted,
no change in the present rushing
procedure would take place until
I he final night when appointments
for the last rushing and bidding
are made.

Quota Determination

At this time a quota is deter-
mined by dividing the number
of men desiring to affiliate with
fralernities by 13, the number of
liou.ses at Amherst. If this num
ber of men is not evenly divisible
by 13. the quota is set so that
the number of men left over,
termed a surplus. Is no more than
12.

After setting the quotas, the
legular rushing .schedule would
then continue until only two pla-
ces remained open in the whole
ystem. These places could both
be in one house or divided between
two houses.

Pledging of Surplus

Pledging of the surplus would
occur by raising the quota so that
the number of the surplus would
exactly equal the vacancies thus
created In the houses. If the sur-
IJliis left over after determining
ih( original quota were 12, the
quotas of 12 houses would be

For Selective Service Examination

Mttirmen Capture
TenthConsecutive
Little Three Title

National Head(|uarteis of tlie Selective Service System an-
nounced that applications for the .April 24 Selective Service quahfi-
catioii Test must be postmarked no later than midnight, March 10.
(Jeiieral Lewis li. Hershey s ollice estimates that upwards to
1(X),0(M) iiieii will take this test, which will be that last given dur-
ing the current academic year. The results will he used by the
local boards in deciding the students' deferment status.
Applicat ion Instructions
following the instructions of a bulletin which may be ob-
tained along with tile application, the student .should fill out his
a|)plicatioii immediately and mail it in the envelope providetl. It
should be empliasiziil that oiih those students who have not yet

O taken the deferment test are eli-
gible.

Many students have been con-
fused in differentiating between
the 1-S and 2-S deferments. The
2-S classification which is con-
sidered on the basis of class
standing or the Qualification test,
is discretionary on the part of the
local board and may be granted
each successive year.

The 1-S classification is provi-
ded for by law. Any college stu-
dent ordered to report for induc-
tion while satisfactorily pursuing
a full time course Is entitled to
this deferment until he finishes
his academic year. He may be
given only one such deferment,
and it is his duty to notify his lo-
cal board of his status when he
receives the order for induction.

UC Hears Final
Committee Report

Entertainment Committee
Announces Dissolution

Monday, March 3— The Un-
dergraduate Council armounced
tonight that its Entertainment
Committee had been dissolved be-
cause of failure to direct the social
life of the college effectively. In
its report the committee gave four
reasons for its failure.

First, the committee lacked in-
fluence because not all social u-
nlts were repi^sented. Second,
many of the reports and recom-
mendations submitted to the ad-
ministration were not acted upon.
Third, the committee could not
enforce their rules. It could only
recommend action to the houses.
Finally, the problem of the mflux
of students from other colleges
during housepartles could not be
met successfully.

Recommends Party Rules

In the report of the Discipltoe
Committee new rules for house-
parties and disciplinary action
were recommended. The playtag
of bands and organized drinking
on the Sunday of houseparty
would be abolished because of the
complaints of several townspeople,
if the new regulations go toto ef-
fect. The committee also stated In
its report that, while the house
rules concerning drtaking and cur-
few need not be changed, they
should be strictly enforced.

The committee also felt that
the responsibility for conduct dur-
ing houseparty should not fall
solely on the house president.

Martin Sets N. E. Mark
In 50 Yd. Freestyle,
Pool Record In 100

by Jack O'Kieffe '54

Amherst, March 1 — Winning
seven out of nine events, the Wil-
liams College swimming team
crushed the Amherst mermen 48-
27 at Pratt Pool this afternoon.
Dick Martin broke records in the
50 and the 100 yard free-style e-
vents to pace the Purple swim-
mers to their tenth straight Little
Three Championship.

Williams started in fine style,
taking the first five events. Dave
Byerly and Co-captains Rick Jef-
frey and John Belash won the
300 yard medley relay. Don Jones
came from behind to edge Don
Wasle of Amherst In the 220 yard
free-style, turning In a fast 2.15.2.
Martin Sets N. E. Record

The New England record for the
50 yard free-style was eclipsed
when Martin won the event in 23.1
knockmg one-tenth of a second off
the former mark. Previously he
had tied the record when he did
23.2 in the Springfield meet.

Max Rogers and Al Post formed
a neat "one-two punch" in the
diving, taking eight points in the
event. Their efforts gave Williams
a comfortable margin of 23-9.
Pool Mark Broken

Martin, deciding that one rec-
ord was not enough for an after-
noon's work proceeded to set a
new Pratt Pool mark for the 100
yard tree-style. Turning in 51.2,
he came within one-tenth of a
second of his own New England
record. Jeff Mercer Tate barely
edsed out Belash for second place.

The Sabrinas took their only
fir.st in an mdividual event when

Selectmen Seek New Policeman For Williamstown;
Financiers Slice RoyaPs Request For Two Men

Chief Makes Appeal
On Population Basis

by Kreac Donovan '54

Saturday, March 1 — Chief Ro-
yal announced that the Williams-
town Finance CImmittee has ap-
proved the addition of another
officer to the local police force.
Although the new man has not
yet been named. It is expected that
the Board of Selectmen will be-
gin shortly to consider applica-
tions.

Originally, Royal had requested
two additional officers. He noted.
In his 1951 Police Dept. Report
that "standard police procedure
is to have one officer per thou-

sand population." The chief went
on to explain that he and his two
assistants could not adequately
supervise the area's 5,000 popula-
tion.

Partial Solution

Town financiers, after exam-
ining the matter, decided to halve
the Police Department's request.
Royal had previously revealed
that the addition of one man
would "partially solve the pro-
blem."

Currently, the Wllliamstown Po-
lice Force consists of Chief Royal,
Officer Melvin F. Thomason and
Officer Stephen L. Polrot. Besides
their Water Street office, the force
is equipped with a station trans-
mitter, and two 1950 Pontiac radio

cars.

Standard procedure for the pre-
sent staff is to have two officers
on duty at all times, one cruising
in a radio car and the other in
the office.

A fact little known by th com-
munity is that Wllliamstown has
one of the best trained small town
police forces In the nation. Both
officers are currently enrolled in
an 11 week training course given
by the Federal Bureau of Inves-
tigation in North Adams.

In addition to this program, the
force makes use of the State Po-
lice Training School In Framing-
ham, which offers the only state
course in the country run exclu-
sively for municlpallltes.

Thanks To The Alumni

The Executive Clomuiittec of the Society ol Aliiinui has oll'ered
the .'lunini House to the luiderf^radnates for their use nutil the
new Student Union becomes a reality in the fall of 1953. Openiuf;
this building to underpaduates is (|uite a break in tradition and
is a sacrifice on the part of the ahnnni body wlio view the bnild-
inj; traditionally as a sacrosanct area strictly olf bounds lor stu-
dents. For its generous offer of its Willianistown !K'ad(|uarters,
we niiist thank the E.xecutive Committee and the rest of die body
of alunnii who are willing to see their building receive the hard
use that undergraduates will give the center during the next fall
and spring terms. We appreciate greatly tliis contribution by
the alumni to die needs of undergraduate life at Williams.

On the other side of the picture, undergraduates who will
.see that the building receives a great deal of n.se, esiieciallv on
weekends when informal dances may be held, must see to it that
the building is taken care of during its one vear lease to the
college student bodv. The board of facultv and student governors
should be chosen soon after the new Undergraduate Council
convenes next week and should begin planning the activities that
will be carried on in the center so tliat inaximnm use can be
gained from this contribution from die Society of .MnmiLi. The
efficiency with which the Alumni House student center is run will
prove a good test case for the new largei- building that will be
constructed on [-"ark Street next vear.

THE NEAREST FLICK I

/)(/ Bruce I'ulmcr
Wedncsdui/ and Tliursdcn/ I went away for the weekend but they
made me write this anyway. Cal tells me he's got a reshowing of
a niiddle-aged musical, "Royal Wedding". Song, dance and laugh-
ter with aged Fred Astaire, |ane Powell, Peter ( l-look-like-a-Yalie)
Lawford and, of all people, Winnie Clmrcliill's daughter Sarah.
How she got in the picture 1 haxe nu idea, but it's a good show.
For the low-brows, Ed Wyun's son. Keenan injects huniorous-ty[)e
stuff. Everybody gets manietl but Keenan, he's the comic, you
see. The only comics that get married and live happily etc. are
Hob HoiH' and Red Skelton. Kennan never gets married. Faultless
Fred nimble-foots through e\ervthing from an Afro-Cuban stomp
to a Viennese waltz witli equal grace. Some guys just never giow
old. Jane Powell gets olf some ni^per-register warbles and a few
duets witii Fred. Pretty good plot for a musical with technicoloi-
and all the works. Huge sets and a cast of millions. Not C|uite as
good as "American in Paris", but pretty fair.

The double feature "The Galloping Major" makes the whole
business a pretty great show. This is a kind of different "Tight
Little Island", lots of the same |5eople, different story. Horses
instead of booze, needless to say it lacks something, but comes out
as a pretty funny show. With die exce)ition of "The Lavender Hill
Mob" I have seen very few British comedies that I thought were
really uproarious.! don't think this is hilarious, but it has its mo-
ments. The Boy Scout sincerity of some of the characters is more
frightening dian amusing sometimes. Despite this there is a cer-
tain amount of good humor; it makes a good show along widi
"Royal Wedding". , , ,.
Fridiiii and Saturdati Another double feature, "Rhubarb and
"Cross-something-or-other". I've never seen either one so, but I \e
read the book called "Rhubarb" by H. Allen Smith. All about eats
and baseball teams and nymphomaniacs, prettv .strange story as
you may guess. The storv was very fuim\- and the movie coidd be
too - but vou know Hollywood. It had a lady weight-lifter in it
and a cat, who inherits a fortune and a baseball team. People who
have seen it told me that it's great, I think I'll see for myself. The
co-feature stars Rhonda Fleming. She's stacked; take it from there
— your guess is as good as mine^_

The Tippy Caiinmittee studying undergraduate |)robleins
reeenflv urged to abolish all pre-initiatiim hazing, and to replace
the traditional Hell Week with a Help Week. Such a modification
would necessitate a change in one of the college's oldest traditions,
.'\u opinion survey e<indncted by the UK(;()R1), reveals varied
campus reaction to this proposal.

Michael Lazor '53, AD- .\ constructive Hell Week is an excel-
lent idea. It would be impractical, however, to attempt a substan-
tial project if Hell Week were to last from only Thursday to
Saturday. If Hell Week were reinstated as die first full week of
the second term, it would be possible to aecom|)lisli something
worthwhile. Instead of atteiii])ting local projects as did the betes.
I would recommend improxcmeiits in the physical slant ol our
fraternity.

Dean Hiihcit H. II. hrooks- - I believe that the process of pre-
paring a pledge for initiation as well as die ceremony itself should
be one in which both the dignity of the indisidnal and the prestige
of the house are enhanced. Few, if any, elements of die present
Hell Week serve this purpose. The substitution of |)sycli(>logical
pain for physical abuse is merely a subtler means of degrading the
individual. 1 am delighted that the Tippy (Aiinniittee has empha-
sized the need for a (iroeednre in which iiidi\'idual initiates, with-
out loss of jjersonal freedom or dignity, join with odiers in a
constructive common effort.

Can/ Lcinhach '55 - DKF. - Now being in a position to look
at it from both sides, 1 beliexe that Hell \Veek aptly serves its
purpose of uniting die pledge classes of the \arious houses. But a
Help Week would be beneficial to both the neighboring towns-
people and college-town relations. Therefore the best solution
would bi' a eomhinatioii of the two: A "help" program combined
with inforiual meal-time hazing.

Tom Ecaii.s '52, DU- 1 feel diat Hell Week, originally designed
-o con\ ince the fraternity pledge ol bis sub-hunian status, should
today serve the purpose of instilling cohesion and spirit in the
pledge group. If this can be done wliile fostering eonstnictive
ends siinultaiieously, so iniicli the better.

Reverend A. Grant Noble - 1 diiiik. on the whole, that diere
v\'as a completely different atinos|)bere in the days when Hell
Week was started and that it is out of place now. I'"verythiiig else
ill college life has changed and so should Hell Week. It is a phase
of college life in which we are far behind. The college would be
kee|)ing up with the times with a Help Week, .'\t any rate, some
Form ot constrneti\'e work should be instituted for the good of
the communitv, the college, and the bouses.

Robert Cloiitier '54, Psi U - I am in favor of a constructive
Hell Week. However, just what is constructive and what is not, is
open to debate-. The Tippy Committee seems to be taking a dark
view of some of the proceedings taking place during the tradi-
tional hazing jieriod. Shovelling snow is indeed generous, but I fiiul
it difficult to generate any sort of congenial spirit regarding the
city of Nordi Adams, long a Foreign Legionaire outpost. Tliere is
certainly room for more sober and constructive activities during
Hell Week, but let's not overlook die constructiye nature of hazing
itself, when it is moderated with iiitelligenee and a sense of
humor. Let's eliminate the iron maiden and the thumb screws,
but don t shovel snow for North .\dams!

Saturday. Mar. 1 — The Williams
Varsity Squash team trounced tlic
vLsltlng Amherst nine 7-2 today to
win their second straight Little
■lliree Championship. The Fresh-
iiiuii also won handily, besting the
Lord Jell Frosh 8-1 and taking

Dick Squires bi'eezed through
Ins match with the Jells' top play-
er Dickinson, outplaying him to
win in three games. 15-12, 15-7.
and 15-14. Chris Thoron moved
up to play number two in place of
Soupy Symington, who was un-
able to play because of death in
Uu' family, and had no trouble
Willi Walter, taking him in three
straight game.s. 15-6. 15-9, and
16-7.

Brownell, Georre Win

I'he Purple continued to rack
lip points as Captain Ray George

their opponents in straight games.
Tom Brucker. however, was upset
by the JelTs' Gardner. 3-1.

The Ephs came right back as
lorn Adkins. Todd Tilllnghasl.

Little Three Tie
In Jeff Contest

Ephs Could Gain Triple
Tie by Downing Rivals
In Year's Key Game

In what is undoubtedly their
most imiJortant game of the year,
the Williams basketeers will meet
the powerful Amherst cagemen
Saturday at the Sabrina gym.
Since a victory in this game will
give the Ephs a triple tie for the
Little Three down, the Purple will
go all out to win this contest.

When the two clubs met on Feb-
ruary 9. it was the Sabrinas who e-
merged the victors, but only after
a fighting game. Despite the dis-
advantage of playing on Amherst's
home court, the Ephs are now gi-
ven a good cliance to upset the
Jeffs as a result of their fine
sliowlng against Springfield.
Ephs Win Two Straight

Since the first Amherst game,
the Ephmen have split four games.
After dropping contests to Mld-
dlebury and Wesleyan. the Shaw-
men bounced back to nip W.P.I.
in double overtime, and followed
this with a one-point victory over
Springfield.

Amherst, however, enters the
game fresh from a lopsided win
over R.P.I, which they downed
Saturday 70-46. Other Amherst
games since the Williams con-
test include wins over Wesleyan
and Brown, and losses to Army
and New Hampshire. The Cards
have finished their Little Three
season with a 2-2 mark. An Eph
win Saturday would give both Wil-
liams and Amherst the same 2-2
mark, and would create a triple tie
in the small school circuit.

Friday's 58-57 Purple win. Waiting for a possible rebound is Mike Lazor

We conducted a poll of '41 graduates to find out:

HOW HAVE THEY MADE OUT IN
10 YEARS WITH GENERAL ELECTRIC?

Here are the results;

1. TRAINING. On ihe average, college graduates who
came with General Electric in 1941 have laken between
three and four Company-run training courses. Some have
taken as manv as seven. These have included courses in
business management and accounting, in sales, manufac-
turing, and in many phases of engineering. Graduates re-
port that this training has been a big help in furthering
their careers. As one expressed it: "These courses arc
essential to certain fields of endeavor — so essential I am
still signing up for aildilioiial courses."

Olhar comment*: "These programs are not the purely
academic ones nf school days. They are practical, interest-
ing, enable one In do a lietler job and enjoy il more.''
"The G-E Sales Training Program was definitely instru-
mental in helping me find my present position." The train-
ing programs have been a very essential link between my
college training and my present work." "I wish I could
have known then how valuable these courses were going
to be later." "They ronlirmcd my original opinion that
G.E. offered the best training for engineers.!!

2. EXPERIENCE. These graduates have had an average
of three different rotating assignments in various phases
of tlie Company's work. A typical example included assign-
ments in radio test, in motors and generators, and in the
industrial control development laboratory. Graduates ex-

press three main benefits derived from ihe G-E rotational
job programs;

a. They provided opportunities for deciding on a deft-
nite field of interest. Typical comment: "I didn't know
what kind of work I wauled to do. Rotating assignments
helped me make up my mind."

b. They conipleinenled college triiining with practical
experience. "Tliey helped me reali/e methods of manu-
facture and testing of different apparatus."

c. They provided valuable associations and conlarts.
"Changing jobs five times brought me a variety of friends
and contacts I'm still grateful for."

3. PROGRESS AND ADVANCEMENT. 88 per cent
reported that they felt their progress in General Electric
has been satisfactory. Nine per cent described their progress
as "average, so-so,'I with three per cent reporting "un-
satisfactory."

Commenit: "It's been no Horatio Alger success story,

"I have felt like a kid in a candy story owned by his

Wilson and Charlie Shaw paced
the freshmen to their eventual
victory.

Bossidy Stars
Larry Bossidy. Pittsfield's stocky,
.six foot forward, was easily the
outstanding man on the floor. A
rough and tumble scrapper, he
scored fifteen points on six baskets
and three foul shots.

In today's dual program. Coach
Cooinub uacu a different squad for
each game. Opening against Dar-
row. the frosh quintet was led by

by Bill Redman '54

Friday. Feb. 29— The Williams
basketball team staved ofl a last
quarter rally by Springfield to up-
set the highly-touted Maroons, 58-
57. in a thrilling contest tonight
in Lasell Gym. The victory boosted
the Ephs' i-ecord for the sea.son to
the .500 mark, nine wins against
the .same number of defeats.

With less than two minutes re-
maining and the score deadlocked
at 55-55. Co-captain Ed Shudt
converted on a toul shot. Shortly
thereafter Bob Depopolo picked up
a loose ball and sank a one-hander
while falling away from the basket
to put the Purple ahead 58-55.

Ephs Put On Freeze
Captain Jim Pelcher a consistant
performer for Springfield all eve-
ning, popped a jump shot with one
minute remaining to bring the
score to 58-57. At this point Wil-
liams started a freeze, but after
committing several fouls, the Ma-
roons managed to tie up Shudt.
A Springfield man took the tip
but travelled with the ball and
Williams retained possession for
tlie few remaining seconds.

The Ephs grabbed a quick 9-1
lead in the first five minutes and
were on top 17-10 at the quarter
mark. Mike Lazor. Jack Hawkins,
and Herb Smith were outstanding
for the Ephs under the backboards
while Walt Creer, Hawkins, and
Smith led the scoring during this
period.

Sehutts Sparks Maroon Rally

Rangy Al Schutts. high-scoring
Maroon center, was held to a
single field goal In this period as
three Purple players converged on
him whenever he received a pass.
However in the second quarter he
broke loose for 14 points on a
series of jump shots and tip-ins
to pace a flurry which gave
Springfield a 37-36 halftime lead.

In the third stanza the Wil-
liams attack gained momentum,

Overwhelming Williamstown Vote
Approves Fluoridination of Water

towii voters 1)V a \i)te ol .'302 to (). A siiiii ol $1,500 was appro-
priated to canv out the projjrain.

Dr. Aiulreu H. Kiiowhind and Dr. Da\id A. Frank, hotli
local dentists, spoke at the town iiieetiiii^ in support ol fluoridina-
tion antl poinli'd (lot the siieiess whieh many othei eounnunities
have had with similar proi;rains. Wisconsin has heen a leailer in
this lield and has reported up to ()5 percent reduction in ca\ities
anionic children.

Objections to fluoridination .

have decreased markedly in the
last few years as the program has
established itself as safe and ben-
eficial. Those objections which
still linger come mostly from
those who feel thai any form of
medication is a personal matter
and should not be forced upon the
individual.

Dentists point out that, while
fluorine can be applied directly
10 llie teeth, it is not as effective
as when added to drinking water
and can never hope to benefit
nearly as many people. These ben-
efits stand out clearly in light of
estimates which sliow that 75 per-
cent of the population needs den-
i.,l attention.

Entirely Safe

Flouridination may be carried
out witli complete safety and has
recpiv'ed the support of Dr. T, V,
O. Limy. Director of Health at
Vvill.ams. Fluorine is a natural
elernjnt found in most drinking
walci- although the amount is ap-
pr,jx..nately one-tenth that need-
ed to effectively prevent decay.

Ihose who profit most from
such a program are small child-
ren whose teeth are still in the
process of forming. Adults who
have just started using fluoridin-
ated water will benefit to some
excent but it is the next genera-
tion which will receive the great-
j.^t protection.

Low Cost

The fluorine compound which
is added to the water is relatively
Simple and the process does not
require a large initial investment.

Although Williamstown voters
have approved fluoridination,
the program has yet to be
passed by the Massachusetts Board
of Health. Their approval, how-
ever, is almost a certainty.

Leaders Vote

Submitted to two Amherst socie-

plan. Out of 45 returns, 28 sup-
ported the proposal, 14 were op-

Several of those voting in favor
of tlie plan expressed reservations
about certain provisions of the
program, especially point four of
the ixuition. Many who cast neg-
ative ballots agreed with the plan
ill principle, but disagreed with
its mechanics.

President Cole praised the plan
■because it gives the fraternities
a chalice for 100 per cent rushing

I have certain reservations, after
a surplus glance it looks like a

Effect on Arcftitecture

Thursday, l''eb. ^8 Associate
Professor of Art Whitney S. Stod-
dL.rd di.scu.ssed the inlluences of
Snger's twelfth century school of
artists on Gothic architecture be-
fore a capacity audience in Law-
rence Hall this afternoon. This
was tile fifth in the annual spring
series of eight lectures by mem-
bers of the faculty.

Professor Stoddard pointed out
that the .sculpturing, done at the
..bbey of Saint-Denis, in the prov-
ince of Ile-de-France, by Suger
and liis students, formed the basis
for subsequent Gothic architec-
lural development. He went on to
investigate the possible sources
which may have influenced Suger's
style.

The lecture was illustrated by
slides of the cathedrals of Saint-
Denis, Chartres, Notre Dame de
Paris, Reims, and others, as Pro-
fessor Stoddard traced the origins
of Suger's architecture to the
French Province of Burgundy,

Williams English Prof.
Gives Second Sermon
In Revamped Services

Saturday. March 8 Bucominc
increasingly disturbed over the
IJoor tui'noul of seniors answering
job interviews, the Placement
Bureau has stated that it is em-
barrassing to have recruiters feel
it necessary to call off a visit to
the campus because of the appar-
ent lack of interest. So far the
Bureau has organized interviews
for only 34 seniors on the "Active
List".

In two instances visitors can-
celled their plans due to the short-
age of interested .students, and two
other recruiters kept their engage-
ments only becau.se they had pre-
viously plaiuied to be in the North
Adams area. William O. Wyckotl.
head of the Bureau, added that
employers are interest<>d in .seniors
"regardless of draft status."
Kegrets Student Apathy

An especially discouraging in-
stance is the fact that, in view of
the widespread interest in adver-
tising, only six men signed up for
a conference on this .subject last
week. It was pointed out that if
it were po.ssible to acquaint seniors
with each company's offers better
iv.sults might be obtained.

It was suggested that .seniors
on the Active List who have al-
ready taken jobs, been accepted to
graduate school or who are reluc-
tant to accept interviews should
ask to have their names placed on
the Inactive List so that the Bu-
I'eau may concentrate on those who
need help.

Talk on .lournalisni

Next in a series of vocational
guidance talks is a speech entitled
"Journalism as a Cai-eer". to be
given by Lawrence K. Miller '31.
Editor of the Berkshire Eagle. The
talk will lake place at 7:30 Wed-
nesday night in Currier Hall.

The Placement Bureau is spon-
.soring an exhibit in Stetson Li-
brary, consisting of vocational lit-
erature of interest to seniors. Ma-
terial from graduate schools and
many corporations is included.

Saturday. March 8— Professor
Nelson S. Bushnell '20 of the Eng-
lish Department will speak al the
chapel service tomorrow evening.
This will be the second in a series
of sermons by members of the fac-
ulty. David Mills '52 will conduct
ihp service.

Graduating from Williams in
ISao, Professor Bushnell entered
Harvard Law School. After a pre-
liminary law career, he decided
that he preferred teaching to a
legal practice. He received his
Ph D. degree from Harvard in 1928
and has been a member of the
Williams faculty since 1931.

Taught in India

During World War II. Professor
Bushnell served with the Air Force
in India. Lured by the stories of
Kudyard Kipling, he had enter-
tained a desire to visit India, and
considered the opportunity offer-
ed him by the goveinment very
fortunate for him.

In 1949-50, Profes.sor Bushnell
WHS granted a leave of absence
fiom William!!, and returned to In-
dia as a lecturer In English Llteia-
iiire at St. Steven's College in
t)elhl. He considers this school the
closest counterpart to an institu-
tion like Williams In India.

Co-Captain Elect

Loss of Star Sprinter
May Deprive Williams
Of Olympic Prospect

Saturday, March 8— The 1952-
.i3 Williams swimming team may
l)e dealt a severe blow this June
in the lo,ss of co-captain and ace I
sprinter Dick Martin. This is the !
Uire outlook facing the Eph swim- j
mers. for Martin, victim of a mix- |
up in Navy records, may be called
out of the PittsHeld Naval Reserve
unit to active duty.

As Martin has not yet received
his orders, the prospect of his be-
ing called is still in the neai'-
rumor stage, but Martin feels that
there is a good chance that he will
be summoned. Should he receive
such orders, he would have the
right to appeal his case, and might
be granted a deferment in order
to finish his .studies.

May Miss Olympics

If Martin is called, the Eph mer-
men would be hard pressed to find
a replacement. Recently elected
Co-captain for next season along
with Don Jones, Martin has set
records in three events this season
and is highly regarded as a pros-
pect for the Summer Olympics at
Helsinki this July.

Coach Bobby Muir, when ques-
tioned about Martin's Olympic
chances, remarked: "I have had
several boys make the Olympic
team, and 13 boys have won na-
tional championships in various
events. I believe he iMai'tin)
could make the 1952 Olympic
team with the proper opportuni-
des."

College President
To Address N.A.
Eisenhower Club

Anticipates Republican

S'weep Should General

Receive Nomination

.Saturday. March 8— President
James P. Baxter III will speak
Monday evening at an organiza-
tional meetmg of the "Eisenhower
for President" Club for the North
Adams - Clarksburg - Florida dis-
trict. The meeting will be held at
the Richmond Hotel in North Ad-
ams at 8:00 p. m.

Setting forth his reasons for
lending his support to General
ELsenhower, the President has as-
serted. "I came to know General
Eisenliovi'er by doing some work
for him in 1942 and in 1946-47.
and by serving with him on the
Service Academy Board in 1948-
49. His qualities of leadership, ad-
ministrative ability, and grasp of
foreign and domestic problems im-
IJiessed me deeply. No great Amer-
ican leader today seems to me so
human, .so dh'ect and .so kindly.
Ike .\ppeuls to All

"If nominated. I believe he can
sweep the country, polling not only
the full Republican strength, but
most of the Independents whose
support is needed for victory, and
the many Democrats who frankly
admit it is time for a change of
party.

"Almost everyone agree-; that if
General Eisenhower is nominated
he will be elected. But it will take
organization, hard woi-k, and I'eal
grass roots effort to ti'anslEte the
strong popular sentiment nto
delegate strength."

Lauds Student Effort

On the local scene President
Baxter is chairman of the "Eisen-
hower for President" organization,
recently founded by students un-
der the leadership of three fresh-
men. Richard S. Beatty, Diiane T,
Sargis.son. and Garret Schenck
and since augmented by many
townspeople.

He has stressed the importance
of the town-wide canvas being
conducted by the students, as well
as the value of the experience. As
a Williams undergraduate in 1912.
President Baxter gained similar
experience as secretary of the
"William Howard Taft for Presi-
dent" organization.

iNovember may seem a long wa\' off, but a more immediate
and pressing problem is that ot Stare primaries. At present the
presidential candidates of the two major national parties arc still
very much up in the air of political speculation and undergrad-
uates may find that tliey can east decisive primary \otes during
Easter vacation. We commend heartily the political awareness ot
those on campus who ha\e formed chilis around college to tluow
their weight behind the candidates ot their choice. But the five-
hundred odd votes represented by the present upperclassnien
are etjually as important as the propagaiuui value ot such organ-
izations. A sense of social awareness and political responsibihty
was exhibited by undergraduates during the past few months witli
the votes on fraternity membership at Williams. But as college
represents in capsule form the society as a whole into which we
will soon matriculate, it is -.ital that we assuiue the habits of good
citizenship as soon as we are eligible to exercise our political
rights and responsibilities.

Mountain Slopes Claim Victims
From Novice Ranks As Three
Exchange Boards For Crutches

by Ned HcppcnstaU

As central New England's most prosperous winter for skiing
in recent years comes to a close, it is of interest to note the
physical repercussions on the eager but unenlightened Williams
men who have "hit the slopes". With the exception of Coach
Towiisend's star captain, .Ned Collins, who has been inactive with
a wrenched knee, by and huge the accidents have affected "green"
skiers.

A typical sufferer is Sandy Brown, who (according to his
associate skiers-not him) was breezing merrily down a Dutch
Hill slope when an attractive and (juite adept female skier
whizzed past. Perhaps for fear of the severe blow to his pride at
being outdone by the weaker sex, or perhaps in an attempt to ex-
hibit to his iniknown companion his prowess "on the boards",
Sandy hastened his descent flew past the girl, lost the trail, and
1 leaded toward a tree. Result: a broken leg.

Broiulci/ Takes Friend

On Friday a brave but inexperienced Doric I'rieiid hazarded
the treacherous Bromley slo|ies, suffering a badly-sprained ankle
and an even worse-sprained ambition. Soon after f)orie took his
fatal fall, two hefty ski patrolmen came and carted him off on a
toboggan past staring people to the first aid station. Doric was
beginning to think that the four dollars he had paid for the tow
had not been completely wasted in \ iew of tiie excellent medical
service he was receiving.

He was indeed shocked when, after a pretty attendant asked
him a few <|uestions in which she learned that he was an inex-
perienced skier, he was casually dismissed with the advice that he
should take skiing lessons. Having trawled meekly out of the first
aiil station, he was given the attention he .so badly needed by a
kind ladv who very heartilv sympathized with him in his pained
maltreatinent from the station, and his spirits were brightened.
When he got a letter recently from the kind lady asking him to
come to the "beginner" ski lesort she owned, he was convinced
of the hard-bitten cmnmerciali.sm of the mountain merchants.

Sportsiiuiii Maimed

C Harold Mott, well known for his grouse and duck shooting
triumphs, re'ceiitly suffered a similar iiidignitv while developing
his new winter interest. Unable to afford the gilded slopes of Mt.
Tremblant or Stowe, he sustained his injnrv. (liagnosed as a club
foot by Dr. Urniy. in the modest pastures of Dutcli Hill.

Mistaking a sturdy oak for the 189(5 House, Mott crashed into
the timber, and was oniv saved from hirther peril by a toboggan
brigade from Pine Oibble School. With the aid of Cal King's taxi
service, the victim has been able to maintain his perfect classroom
attendance record.

bij Ted Tern/
In the social "no inan'i land" between complete Iraternity
memliership anil the status ijuo, the anxious policy makers ol
Williams have found solace in the proposal hir deferred rushinu.
'lliis plan provides no solution for the present problem, while
creating a new list of potential ills.

Deferred ru.shing stalemates any efhirt to provide gratis fra-
ternity membership tor all iindergiaduates. The bitterness of re-
jectioii at the end of a year will greatly exceed the disappointment
of first week exelusion. The other side ol this proposed coin is a
threat to the fraternity. Weakened by attrition, rather than
altruism, the individual house will he forced to bid men normally
unsolicited by the members, in terms of total absorption, the
greatest probable accomplishment will be a vicious 90-10 ratio ol
membership.

A C'oW Winter for Treshnien

The plan reduces the initial college year to nine months of
spartan severity. Denied access to the entertaimiicut and transpor-
tation offered by the fraternity, the freshman will inherit the dis-
mal social facilities of Spring Street or the limited offerings ol a
student union. His lot will hi weighted with the frantic and ex-
tended struggle to enter the fraternity of his choice. In place of
fostering class spirit, prolonged anxiety and competition will stress
the individual and his cliijue, both fashioned to make the candi-
date palatable to fraternity tastes.

For the houses deferred rushing spells linaneial anemia. Out
of the urge for self preser\ation the fraternity will acijuiescc to
unwanted increases in delegation ijuotas. .\s a by-product of the
new teclmiiiuc, desparatc rivalry and elaborate chicanery will
appear, bring ailditional rushing expenses as baggage. The re-
sulting evil will be the effect upon the atmosphere ol the indivi-
dual houses. Group or "package ' joining on the part of the fre.sh-
nicn, well congealed in cliques after a long, lonely year, will in-
crease the polarization of fralernitics in their types and interests.
Inevitably the fraternity will fail in its dlmiiishing attempts to
maintain a mixed pattern within the hibric of its membership.

1 was very interested to read in the Williuuis HECOHD of
Feb. 27, 1952 the article by John II. Allan in which he comments
the irony of humorous references to the "dies unifomr' of (1,^
average 'Williams student. This article has scored a pertinent point
1 believe, in bringing to the fore an observation of fact which so
many are prone to self-consciously deny.

Reliable polling techniiiues and valid conclusions Uierefrom
are two entirely dilferent processes, however. Whereas we may
find evidence of uniformity of dress on the Williams campus,
1 hardly think that any conceivably significant percentage ot
haternitv members will agree that "ol Williams institutions,
clothing is most important in relationship to the fraternity." jj
seems a great error to assume that a convention of dress can be
interpreted as a motive hir evaluation of the worth of fraternity
nieinbers.

If this be the case, however, there are a great many of us in
fraternities who must he resigned to remain as "outcasts " witli
"two strikes against us from the start." But we shall continue tu
liel that there are a few Williams institutions which have signj.

THE WILLIAMS RECORD SATURDAY, MARCH 8, 1952

HEADLINER

By KulliKian

Btkck In UetcmbBr, the luss ol Hit Cramer dealt a severe blow tu
Coach Al Shaw'K hopes tor nioidiiit- a team whieh eould perhaps come
close to eiiualiiliiK the perl'ormaiu'e of his great Larson-Sheehy qulii-
let. The preseiiee of Cramer alonu with Kd Shiidt gave Shaw two
well seasoned and poised veterans to paee a team whieh would obvi-
ously lack experienee and ronlldenee. The sophomore trio of Hawkins,
freer, and Smith coupled with the veteran Williams ro-eaptains mlRlit
very well have turned the tide in our favor on more than one oecasion
where live or six points made the dilTerencc.

However, with Cnimer out of action due to a chronic shoulder
injury, Shaw was foreed In experimenl with a number of variations
In his line-up in an attempt to find a winninK combination.

Ho often has eome the ery from armchair strategists — "Well just
wait till next year." With a winning: frosh live, sperulatlon for 1953
could hardly be avoided. However, no coach is in a position to dream
about what's to happen come next year, lleie and now are his main
worries, and his Job is to deal with the situation at hand.

In liiiht of Ihl.s fact, I feel that with the relatively "green" squad
Al Shaw found available for his Til-.'ja team, he ha.s woi'ked wonder.s
to keep them al the .500 maik.

TunlKht it's Amherst. The bie one! The last one. Making the trip
with the Williams squad will be co-captain Cramer, uniformed and
ready for action against the powerful .lell quintet. Not only has his re-
turn strengthened the suuad, but also it has given a certain rejuvena-
tion of spirit. They'll be going all out for the win tonight. Let's get
down and give them all the support we can.

Picture, if you will, the Hlorious maKUiflcence of the Lasell basket-
ball court UPSTAIRS. With all the advantages of the proverbial
"bandbox", this floor provides the site for all intiamural contests
ihrouKhout the year. Poor 'Harry Hoop"! So many frustrations of
ihls would-be court flash are only heightened by low-hanwing rafters,
pregnant floois, close-by radiators, and supporting pillars. In addition
to these, we find nine other obstacles i teammates included i racing
about the floor with "an intent to kill" manamnK their every move.

With the intra-mural league championship in the balance, the
DKE'S met the Dll's, (Nulf said'.' I The combatants took the floor
amidst a flourish of sanguinary oaths, and the battle was on. After
an 11-11 half-time score, the even pace was kept throughout the sec
»nd half as well. With but a minute remaining in the combined
urestllng-football-basketball display, a tie score still prevailed. As the
seconds waned, the referee's blast sounded and I'KTE STERLING
strolled to the foul line for the "Old Crow's ". I'ete's toss was good and
the Columns of Kpsilon struggled through with an fH-17 victory.

My apologies to Capt. O. M S.. Ill and the winter Uack team
for recent omission of the results of the Knights of Columbus track
meet in N. Y. a week ago. With due respect to my former boss. I'd
like to .say that the Williams cindermen represented one of the only
small college entries on the program. Running in a heat with teams
Irom N. Y. U., Holy Cross, Pcnn State and St. John's the Purple mile-
relay team trailed the victors bv a scant four .seconds, posting their
best time for the entii-e season. George Kelsey placed fifth in the high
jump.

Captain Kay George of the Wil-
liams College Squash team will be
one of four entries at Harvard to-
day.

Skiers Compete
In Bromley Meet

Townsend Enters Four
In Giant Slalom Field

Saturday, Mar. 8 — Coach Ralph
rownsend's skiers compete with
the East s best teams in the Har-
vard Collegiate Giant Slalom
at Big Bromley today. Th,.' meet
is comprised of two run.i, one to
be lield this morning and the
other in the afternoon.

A field of more than ten teams
is expected for the annual event,
including Harvard. Vermont, Nor-
wich. Bowdoin. Mlddlebury, Dart-
mouth, and other Eastern Colleges
which will vie with the Ephs for
ti'am honors.

Still handicapped by the lass of
Captain Ned Collins. Townsend
will enter only four skiers. Bob
Tucker, Stu Chase, and Pete Cal-
lahan, Williams' three leading
point-getters in slalom events this
year, and Putte Westergaard will
compete for the team and indivi-
dual titles at Bromley.

Squashmen Enter
National Tourney
To End Campaign

Four Men to Compete
In U.S. Championship;
Squires Seeded Third

by Bob Goldstein

Friday, Mar. 7— Coach Clarence
Chaffee .sent a four-man Williams
delegation down to Harvard today
to take part In the National Inter-
collegiate Squash Championships.
Representing Williams are Dicii
Squires. Soapy Symington, Ray
George and John Brownell. Chis
Thoron, the number three man,
chose not to make the trip.

The tournament is based on In-
dividual play; no team champion-
ship will be decided. Chaile; IJf-
ford of Harvard, runner up last
.year, will, in all probability, oe
.seeded fli'st, while Blair r/urphy j
of Yale and Squires will receive [
either .second or third r.'-.nking. .
Squires-Murphy Rivalry j

The keenest rivalry at the tour-
ney will be between Squiies and
Murphy. The two have split two
decisions this year, and if neither
is upset, they stand a good chance .
of meeting in the semi finals. La.si
year Murphy, seeded third, tupped
Squires 3-1 in the third round.
None of the other Williams en-
trants have participated before.

Coach Chaffee is quite optimis-
tic over the chances of his teo.m
He feels that "Squires should
reach the semi finals", and al.so
exclaimed that "This is the strong-
est team we have entered in tl e
IntercoUeglates in some time".
Upsets Possible
Aside from the four probably
seeded stars. Coach Chaffee ex-
pects to see several others provide
some .stiff competition for any op-
ponent. Among those falling into
this category are Jim Bacon and
Dave Watts of Harvard: Sandy
Ewing of Yale: Cecil North of
Princeton: and Symington i>nd
George, of Williams.

will be fighting to repeat last

when they take on a favored Am-
herst club on the Sabrina court
tonight. The Ephs show a single
\ictory in three title contests to
date.

The Jeffs, who carry a in-7 oai'd
into the final game, saw then-
hopes jarred when the Wesleyan
Cai-dinals eked out a one-point up-
set victory in Middletown two
weeks ago. However, the host ag-
gregation boasts a height advan-

them to pull out a 56-45 wm in

I have a fair chance for a victoiT

Monday. March 10- At the first
ineeling of the Student Activities
Council under the direction of its
new olliccrs. Flying Club President
Dave W. Bur!,'her asked for a
$1400 loan for the purchase of a
newer second-hand plane. The
loan, if granted, would then be
■idded to the $400 which would be
received from the sale of the plane
now 111 use. and the faster, more
eiriclent one would be bought.
When the original proiiosal came
111), the Plying Club asked for a
direct loan. but. due lo the finan-
cial status of the SAC. the execu-
tive committee, which met .several
days iiKO. decided that such a loan
was imiJo.ssible, Burtdier then
worked out a plan whereby tlu>
loan would be made by the Wil-
lamstown Bank and would be un-
derwritten by the Activities Coun-
cil.
Meniiiers I'ersonally Kesponsiblr
Besides the undcr-writinu the
SAC will have an agreement with
•he twenty members of the Flying
Club by which they will be per-
■onally responsible to the SAC if
anything goes wrong. The plan
also slates that if the new plane
is bou,«ht. the debt must be reiiaid
in two to three years. To insure
this i-epayment in the quickest
possible time, the flying rates will
be raised lo $4.00 per hour, and
the iJlaiie will be a\'ailable and
ready for a larger number of fly-
ing hours.

The council decided Ihi.s after-
noon to think the problem ovei-
in a little more detail and come lo
their final decision in the very
near future. Several minor pro-
blems concerning liability and col-

Michigan Reveals
Rushee Scarcity

New Dorms Draw Men
Away from Fraternities

Ann Arbor. Mich.. March 10 —
Fraternity rushing .seems to bring
up all .sorts of varied problems on
the nations' campu.scs. At the Uni-
versity of Michigan, fraternities
are running into diiTiculty trying
to get enough men to pledge, the
Michigan Daily reports.

The university's new dormitories.
IJossessing more than adequate
facilities, have caused students to
feel that they can satisfy their in-
dividual tastes and needs .satis-
factorily in the college residence
halls.

During the recent rushing sea-
son on the Michi.gan campus, resi-
dent of the new Gomberg House
placed an ad in the Daily an-
nouncing "rushing hours for all
aflilintes who desire to pledge."
One of a .series of buildings known
as the new "South Quad." Gom-
berg is putting up stiff competi-
tion for the fraternities which
wish to pledge men who feel more
than satisfied where they are.
Must Slay Solvent

The university plan of building
plush dormitory facilities has
cau.sed the number of Michigan
fraternities to drop considerably
since the pre-war period. Accord-
ing to a university ruling, houses
which cannot remain solvent fi-
nancially must close. A number of
fraternities have been forced to
dissolve from a lack of men who
wished to pledge.

To Little Three Tournament Runoff Sat.

liams will send down a two-man
team to lake part in the Little
Three debating I'un off Saturday.
T« o Adelphic Union members. Wy
Proctor '52 and Charles Telly '54
will defend both the atflrmative
and negative positions on the
topic Resolved; That the United
States .should adopt a permanent
policy of price and wage control.

The original Little Three tour-
nament ended In a three way tie.
The Williams negative team of
Proctor and Dick Antoiin '53 de-
feated Amherst and lost to the
Wesleyan afflrmatlve. At the same

time an airirmative team of Don
Goldstein '53 and Ronald Dubin
'53 took the decision from the
Wesleyan negative, while bowing to
a strong Jeff duo.

On March 30 a Williams team
of Richard Duflleld '52 and Bill
Bi-ayer '53 will travel down Boston
way to meet the inmates of Nor-
folk pri.son in a debate on the
baseball resen'e clause. Norfolk

Arnold Levin '52 and Don Gold-
stein in a close decision, as the
topic of .socialized medicine was
discussed.

Monday, Maich 10- J. Richard
Duflleld '52 n ' iring President of
the Undergraciiiate Council, dis-
cussed the piublems and future
business of the new Council in his
final report to ilie UC.

Opening with the question of
Ihe responsibility of the UC. Duf-
fleld pi'oposed a .solution to this
problem of representative govern-
ment. He determined that the fra-
ternity representatives .should de-
cide all routini business, and that
issues of major importance should
be referred to tin- student body for
a vote.

^ New Comniiltee

After viewing tlie efficiency of
the present Council. Duffleld sug-
gested the institution of an Exec-
utive Committee which might out-
line work and initiate legislation.
The new committee would be com
posed of the UC officers and the
chaii-men of all the current com-
mittees of the Council.

Duffleld further urged propor-
tional representation on the UC
for the non-afflliates. This mo-
tion was followed closely by a pro-
posal for a vote on a new plan for
total membership In fratcmilies.

Al.so contained in Duffleld's re-
port was a plan foi' Ihe revision
of membership on the Di.scipline
Committee. He suggested that all
UC committees should contain on-
ly Council members.

lieiid language:

Reason: l'"or the last llircc weeks I liaxc reeeiveil in my niail-

.\n excellent plan has been developed by a friend, and I
lepetil il here in its eutirty. I'lrst vou must buy a copy ol James
Joyces "Ulysses in a seconil-haiiil liook store in New York, look-
ing siiarpiy lor a beaten copy. Unless you have extraordinary
hick, il will next lie necessary lo leave your copy out in the riiiii
lor al least two weeks, ami upon bringing it inside, "earmark

beanliliilly liirned |)lir;i.si's that appear in the thesis. .Make a fi'vv
;illiisions lo Sanskrit proverbs, and copy ti lew strong criticisms.
Tiieii the hook is leailv to be thrown on your ilesk. The ellecl
is a strong one. Here is a book vim liave obviously read a tlioii-
saiid tiiiies (you can suggest this i)v meiitioning that vou never
gel tireil ol it); it is worn anil liionglitover (wiluess tiie notes),
llie cheapness ol the eilition shows that it is the guts, not the
cover, tlial yon are iiiteresteii in. 'ilie girl's eves will i)urii
fiercely wilii liored envv. and vou have niched another crevice
into her soul."

"The lact that Bruce I'aliiiei, the inventor ol this luelhod.
has been notably imsiicccssfnl vvitii il is not so inucii the fault ot
the coiiceplioii. It is rallicr due lo tile ililliciilty of looking aes-
llielieallv wan wiien \'on weight over 2110 iiis. The giinmic is sound.

THK (:()N"\i",R'S.\TI()N: Ndlluiig really iroii-clad can be

A lew raiiiloin notes iiuiv givi you some iilcas:

Knovvii till obscure school ol modern dance tiuil relet to all
others as "insincere; hollow loriii".

Call Kaffa meaningless and pr;iise Dostoyevsky as the lore-
rmiiier ol l''reuil. (Tiiis is eipiaiiv good in reverse, in whicli case
vou mereiv refer lo Kalka as elaboraliug I'reuil.)

II is not a hail iilea to have been in love with a girl whose
parents ohjecteil to vou liecanse vou were going to be a com-
poser (writer, painter, actor, sculptor, etc.) Tins gives von a
strong iiasis tor cvnii-ism and hate ol convention.

The truth, alter all, is ilolelnllv siiii|)li'. II von don I like the
Beiiuinglon wav ol liie. the artilices will do von no good, lor
yon can never enter into them with conviction and ahamloii, .\iid
if vou ill) like the Beimingtou wav of life, wliv — damn these

HoudiniLikeThief
Burglarizes Co-Op

Locked, Empty Register
Baffles Investigators

Monday. March 3— A burglar
broke into the Williams Co-op
and stole $50 in cash and an un-
determined amount of merchan-
dise, last nlBht. Police as yet have
no clues as to the intruder's iden-
vity.

Jack Henderson, operator of the
store, reported that his tailor.
Giacomo Cattoli. had discovered
the theft when he arrived for
work at 8 a. m. thi.s morning. Cat-
toti found the dooi from the roof
to a pentiiouse atop the one story
structure had been forced open.
Further investigation disclosed
that the burslar had left by a
rear door on the first floor.
Cash Register Locked

Mr. Henderson was unable to
explain how the cash register from
which the money was stolen had
been locked by the bandit before
he left. The only way to lock tiio
register, Mr. Henderson explained.
is with a key which was not in the
store at the time.

After he had called Chief of
Police Royal. Mr. Henderson dis-
covered one set of tracks ap-
proaching and one leaving the rear
of the establishment. Chief Royal
checked all fingerprints found m
the store but was unable to reach
an immediate conclusion.

game wide open in the third quar-

Williams employd a full court
press through most of the final
period, but to no avail as the
Sabrinas jealously maintained pos-
session 01 the ball until the clos-

sloppy on both sides. Sandy Lait-

P.O. F.T. T.P.

Thursday. March 6 — "Man is a
prisoner within his own ideas of
reality ... he must pursue each
truth to fi^ee himself." concluded
David Park, assistant professor of
phy.sics, speaking this afternoon
on "Pythagoras Bound." The sixth
in the spring term series of faculty
lectures given in the biology lec-
ture hall, the talk was based on
the principle of Pythagoras that
mathematics is the key to reality.

Park traced the attempts of
man from Euclid to Einstein to
•relate the human to the divine
nature of mathematics." In clos-
ing, he cited Einstein's philosophy
that, since experimentation alone
fails to reveal the fundamental
truths of the world, the philoso-
pher should combine "the reason-
ing mind and an idea of what is
re:,l," to understand "the reality
of lite."

Michigan

Santiago newspapers "La Nacion
and "Los Tiempos", Davila was
Chilean Ambassador to the United
States from 1927 through 1931 and
provisional president of Chile in
1932.

For three years, 1943-1946, he
was a member of the Council of
the United Nations Relief and Re-
habilitation Administration. Dr.
Davila became one of the IB mem-
bers of the UN Economic and Se-
curity Council, meeting at Luke
Success in 1946. He was at the
same time representative of Cliile
on the Inter-American Financ'ial
and Economic Advisory Committee
and author of the "Davila Plan"
approved by the Committee, which
created the Inter-American Devel-
opment Commission, headed by
Nelson Rockefeller.

Dr. Davila has received honor-
ary degrees from Columbia Uni-
versity and the University of
Southern California, Los Angeles.
At the present time, he writes a
weekly column for a chain of
South American newspapers and
has been described as "perhaps the
most widely read writer in the
Republics to the South."

houses were found to be in a
"crucial position" because of the
scarcity of rushees. The absolute
minimum number of men that
must be pledged is 350 if the
Michigan houses are to remain in
existence, according to one Michi-
gan Inter --fraternity Council
, spokesman.

i Other reports indicated that
I spring season pledging w'ill reduce
this number to somewhere nearer
the number of men who are will-
ing to leave the new Michigan
dormitories. Alumni support was
also suggested as a means for re-
maining solvent should some
houses fail to pledge very many
men.

ranged and prepared by Mar-
tin K. Howes. Acting Custodian,
the exhibit contains tablets da-
ted as early as the year 2350

new means of communication in
the last thirty years are shown

grims."

Turning to the field of educa-
tion. Lait and Mortimer sum-
marize their views in this way:
"Americans are over - educated
boobs, no longer taught the three
R's. which are 'bourgeois and old-
fashioned.' Now we learn how to
conform while the schemers and
dreamers overrun our schools and
colleges."

Throughout the surrounding
area, the authorities have also be-
gun to crack down on the book-
sellers. The "advice" to cease sales
reached at least one local estab-
lishment in the phraseology of an
order.

Law Suits

In Tulsa, Oklahoma, Sheriff H.
Blaine has stated that a $500,000
libel suit will be filed against Lait
and Mortimer. They describe Tulsa
as "practically lawless" and criti-
cize Blaine's law enforcement.

Meanwhile, in Seattle, Dave
Beck, international vice-president
of the powerful A. F. of L. Team-
sters Union, notified all book deal-
ers in Washington that he will
bring immediate suit against them
for libel if they a.ssist in tlie sale,
circulation, or distribution of this
book.

topped by Dewey of Yule, 12-15,

Krownell .Also Surprise

Sophomore John Brownell also
proved a surprise as he turned
back two opponents before suc-
cumbing to Potter of Navy, 18-17,
l,>>-6, 13-15, 15-14. Brownell was
entered in the Intercolleglates only
when Chris Tlioron decided not
lo make the trip.

The number five ranked Eph-
man won his first two matches
handily, turning back Dartmouth's
Bill Fisher 15-5. 15-9, 15-7 and Bill
Banks of Amherst 15-10, 15-13,
8-15, 15-6. II took the Middies's
number two player to knock Brow-
nell out of the tournament.
Wood I'resses Squirt's

Runner up Dick Squires drew a
lirst round bye. and then preceded
to route Dickenson of Amherst,
giving up only 19 points. The next
match saw Sciuires up to the oc-
casion in an encounter which
must have proved (luite monoton-
ous for the scorer. WatUs of Har-
vard bowed to the Eph star, 11-15,
15-11. 15-11, 15-11.

Sciuires' toughest match, aside
from the one with Utiord, came
in Ihe quarter finals. Wood of
Yale battled all the way. but
couldn't quite make it. Squires
winning 15-14, 15-13, 10-15, 15-13.

The tournament lost niuch of
its color when two of the top play-
ers Eli Blair Murphy and John

which Lazor served as a substitute
in the early games but clinched a
.starting berth in the late contests,
taking over the center position.
Good Kebounder

Superior rebounding ability ad-
aptable to a zone defen.se won
Lazor a starting position in the
Springfield game. At Amherst, he
proved his value by repeatedly
out-rebounding such Lord Jelf
stalwarts as Howie Fisher and
Derry Bennett. Lazor al.so display-
ed oifensive power as he scored 1 1
points in the Ephs' last quarter
bid for victory.

In addition to his newly elected

dent of the Junior Advisors. In
his Freshman year he was class

Miller Stresses Small
Town Advantages

Wednesday Mar. 12 — Speaking
tonight in the Currier Hall lounge
Lawrence K. Miller '31, editor and
co-owner of the "Berkshire Eagle".
Pittsfield. Mass.. outlined the ad-
vantages for the college Braduate
on a small-town newspaper.

Mr. Miller's talk was the third
in a series of informal vocational
guidance lectures sponsored by the
collcKe Placement Bureau.
Chance for .Advancement

"The .smaller the situation the
better for the young reporter",
commented Mr. Miller. "A good
reporterial job on a small town
paper can lead to any number of
good positions elsewhere." He
went on to cite a number of well-
known journalists who first re-
ceived their start on .small publica-
tions.

The young reporter, according
to editor Miller, has a better
chance to show his abilities on the
small-town daily with its limited
staff and varied work. "Many able
youngsters go years without ad-

Davila Discloses
Economic Threat

New World Must Unite
Against Europe, Africa

Thursday. March 13 — "The
whole standard of living in our
countries lof the Western Hemis-
phere! is threatened by competing
economies" stated Dr. Carlos Da-
vila. Chilean writer, diplomat, and
former member of the Council of
UNRRA. at a lecture tonight un-
der the auspices of the Williams
Lecture Committee titled "Latin
America Today,"

"Europe is an historical expres-
sion and . . . Africa does not exist
anymore." according to Dr. Davila.
We are living in a three-world
panorama of Eurasia, Eurafrica,
and the Americas. The United
States and Latin America must
band together against the rest of
the world if we are to maintain
our present standards of living.
Eurafrica n Development

The Eurafrican development is
one of the chief threats to Ameri-
can conomic power and the United
States is aiding it revealed Dr. Da-
vila. "Marshall plan dollars" have
been siphoned off for African
Improvement to the tune of nearly
one billion dollars including such
items as two million to build up
diamond mines of French poss-
essions.

An attempt is in process to tele-
scope into 10 years the develop-
ment in Africa which required 300
years for Western Europe, 100 for
the U. S., and 30 tor Russia. These
state-operated, slave labor projects
already export as much cotton as
the United States and large quan-
tities of such Latin American ex-
port Items as coffee, sugar, ba-
nanas, cocoa and tobacco.

Nonfraternity Delegation
Exits as Council Denies
Hearing on Club Motion

Amherst, March S — Representa-
tives of the Lord Jeff Club walked
out of a Hou.se Membership Com-
mittee meeting tonight as a result
of the refusal of the HMC to re-
consider a proposal to put tire
club's rushing under faculty super-
vision.

"I'lic plan was put forth at a re-
cent forum, Including faculty and
.student views, which discus.sed the
club's membership in the HMC.
The Lord Jeff representative ex-
plained that separation from the
Committee was necessary because
the club could not rush on an
equal basis with frateiTiltie.'i.
Cites Club's Beliefs

He clarified this by citing the
beliefs that "every .student is en-
titled to equal intellectual and so-
cial opportunities" and that "no
.student has the right to judge the
merits of another student". There-
fore, he said, the Lord Jeir Club
should not be forced to abide by
the same rushing rules which ap-
ply to the fraternities.

Tlae HMC formally expressed
the hope that the Club representa-
tive would continue to attend the
meetings as a participatini! mem-
ber. The Committee explained
that no further action could be
taken on the proposal until its
next meeting with the Graduate
HMC.

Theodore G. Mehlin, Field Me-
morial Professor of Astronomy at
Williams, is scheduled as Chapel
speaker at the evening .services
tomorrow. Professor Mehlin. sole
member of the Astronomy Depart-
ment, holds degrees from Drake
University, the University of Chi-
cago and Amherst College.

Mehlin won his graduate degree
in astronomy at Yale, after which
he returned to Drake to teach for
six years. He arrived at Williams
ten years ago. and aside from his
regular teaching he conducted sev-
eral V-5 and V-12 classes in navi-
gation during the war.

With the additional interest in
navigation that has occurred in

can Frontier." Mr. Bastert, a lec-
turer tor the Williams History de-
partment gave the next to last lec-
ture in tlie Faculty Lecture Series.
'Ihe lecture began with a descrip-
tion of the mode of thinking of
the American historian previous
to the Civil War. Bastert pointed
out that the generally accepted
theory was that all American pro-
gress in the new nation had it's
foundation in Europe. This was
due to the hold over of ideas
brought over by the early settlers.

territorv, according to Henry N. Flynt, Jr. Director of Student .\id,
Applicans for omplovment may ap|)lv to the USSR & M Boston
office for "referral' slips wliicb insuii' .some dej^ree of centaint\' of
employment by the Fairbanks office.

The company operates eis;lit placer dredges within a ,30 mile

and kitchen help. Wages vary from
$367 to $498 per month. Room and
board is provided by the company
for $2.25 per day.

All hiring is done at the com-
pany's offices in Fairbanks. Appli-
cants must be at least 18 years of
age and must pass a physical ex-
amination. Selection of the suc-
cessful candidates for the Boston
office's referral slips will be based
on the date of the student's ap-

The company reserves the right

to lay off any worker it has hired

and will not be under an obligation

to hire anyone with a referral slip

i in ca.se of a company shut down.

W. Warren Salter, a Concord,

Mass. High School teacher and an

that he is offering rides to Alaska
to a limited number of men in
June for $200.

Salter states that there are also
construction jobs with other com-

ing the Union and paying over $40
per week for room and board. The
salmon, railroad and lumber in-
dustries also hire summer help,
Salter said.

The Fairbank "Daily Miner"
predicts another boom year, but

cannot afford to gamble the trans-
portation costs and high living
expenses of Alaska to "consider
the matter carefully,"

Calls Taft Green
In Administration

Likens Ohio Senator
To Pierce, Harding

Noith Adams, March 11 — Gen-
era! Dwight D. Eisenhower not
only would draw more votes than
Senator Robert A. Taft, but also
is better qualified to become Presi-
dent. ,J;iines P. Baxter III a.sstrted
at a rally of Berkshire County
Republicans at the Hotel Rich-
mond last night.

"No presidential candidate."
President Baxter stated, "has any-
thing like General Eisenhower's
preparation in the field of foreign
affairs and national defense." Mr.
Baxter, w ho has known Eisenhow •
er since 1942. reviewed the Gen-
eral's record in handling difficult
administrative ta.sks, and scored
Senator Tatt's inexperience in this
field.

Cites Precedents

"Of the senators who liave be-
come presidents." Mr. Baxter re-
minded his audience, "the most
successful have liad diplomatic or
administrative experience, eiihcv
as governors of states or in tire
army. Among the senators whose
experience — like Sen. Tatt's and
President Truman's — was confined
to tile senate, we have had iuch
outstanding failures as Pierce.
Buchanan, and Harding."

"William H. .Seward was the I\';r.
Republican of 1860." the Puiit.xr-
Prize-winniiw historian continued.
'He was not only a great senator,
but had served two successful
terms as governor of New York.
Yet the Republican convention in
Chicago passed him o\'er for a
man named Abraliam Lincoln —
and certainly none of us has ever
regretted t.liat decision."

Pick a Winner

Mr. Baxter averred that he was
"not here to run down any re-
spectable candidate." but thai "in
U. S. politics it has always been
fair to question: which candidate
is most likely to win'.'" Using the
analogy of a football game, he
commented that both Taft and
Eisenhower would plug the line
well, "but Ike can make end runs
that are bound to bring in mil-
lions of extra independent votes."

"A five-star general is at the
disposal of his government tor
lite," Mr. BaNter remarked. "We
as supporters must be prepared to
win the nomination tor him
whether he is here or not."

To the Editor of the RECORD:

With .so inaiiv articles a])pcarinir in tlic Williain.s Coilcire
RECXJRD opcniv Favoring .sociali.stic tciidcncie.s, in connection
with the fraternity system in particular. 1 am writinir to call
attention aj^ain to a teles^iam from William Loeb, '27, of Man-
cliester. New Hampshire.

This concise messajre is as soimd as any editorial matter that
I liave seen ap|)ear in your ])iiblication in recent years. I am
writinjr as an older akimnus to suggest that tliis message from
Mr. I,oel) he repeated, if possible, on the front page of yom'
RECX)HD. To my mind, it should tend to straighten out a lot of
vouthful, clouded thinking among the student body. You shonld
vyell be able to afford to give it sjiace a second time.
Darwin's Dai/
"Coiigratidations to the student body on defeating the equal-
itarian i)ro])osal that all students be taken into fraternities.
Regardless of any faidts the fraternity system might ha\e, the
entire ]5rocess of life is selective, the able coming to the tO]5 and
the imable falling to the bottom. While a res]5onsibility rests on
society to ameliorate the lot of the unable, attem]5ting to do away
with the selective process results in a levelling down which in
the end results in a miserable mediocrity and the sort of economic
sterility which is best exemplified by tlie current-day England,
strangled by socialization.

Yom- cam)-)us \ote was perhaps indicative that students of
19.'52 are going to reject the reactionary e(|na!itarian doctrines
in fa\'or of the idea that e\eiy man has a light to rise as high
as his talents and contributions to society allow."

William Loeb '27 - Pres Union Leader Corp.

Manchester, New Hampshire
Sincerely,

T. H. Irwin '18
Editor's Note: The controx ersial Mr. Loeb was mentioned by
Joseph and Stewart Alsop in their "Matter of Fact" column in
the New York Herald Tribune on March 10, describing the politi-
cal atmos|>here in New Hampshire as it affects the presidential
campaigns. We re|3rint this paragraph only to shed light on this
outspoken leader of the opposition to the editorial policy of the
RECORD.

"And there is nothing reassuring about the peculiar brand of
journalism represented by tlie ]5oIitically potent "Manchester
Union Leader,' whose pnbhsher, VVilliam Loeb is always carrying
a loaded pistol with him, and is given to publishing (with pious
disclaimers of anti-Semitism) photostats of his birth certificate to
)irove that he is not a Jew. Rnt it should also be pointed out
that . . . the Eisenhower supporters believe that both the slimv
pamphlets attacking him and the ferocious assaults on him in
Loeb's pa]5er will actually helji their candidate."

"This has got to stop", sophomore Peter Loiseaux grimly
warned this week as some 200 adx'crtisements, circulars, frei' offers,
catalogues, and samples began pouring into his mail box at an
ayerage late of twenty a da\'.

Loiseaux's troubles started from the moment he (licked up
an air-mail special-delivery letter (joslimuked Phoenix, .Arizona,
from the "Society for lmpro\cment of Men's C;lothes in College
Fraternities." The Society had named him "The liest-Dressed
Fraternity Youth in America" - a distinction that Pete, grinning
shyly, tried to duck.

"Well Equipped Wardrobe"

"The Priee of Fame"
Loiseaux's satorial achievement soon brought letters from all
oyer the country which daily threatened to swamp local Post
Office facilities. Most of the writers tlid their best to lure Pete out
of Williamstown and into more profitable fields, educational, busi-
ness and military. "Pete's got to pay the jjriee of fame" decided
two unidentified Phi Delt swimmers, both long-time admirers of
Loiseaux's wardrobe.

From the military attache, French Embassy, Washington,
came an inspiring letter to "Mr. Pierre Loiseaux" ugring a career
in the French Foreign Legion. The letter extolled past glories of
such I,egion regiments as "the 12th Foreign Infantry Regiment
which distinguished itself early in the war losing nine-tenths of
its men . . ." or "the three Legion units which fought with distinc-
tion in Tunisia . . . loosing two-thirds of their personnel . . ." The
letter concluded hopefully . . . "It should be emphasized that vol-
unteers in order to enlist must report to Legion Headepiariers,

Ski Team Attains Class A Rating
With Successful Winter Showing

By Pete Goldman '54

Coach Ralph Townsend's varsity
skiers, handicapped by an unco-
operative weather man and the
injury Jinx that struck every-
where on the winter sports scene,
improved on their championship
showing of last year. In the eyes
of Coach Townsend, the Ephs
turned in a highly creditable sea-
son's record.

Townsend. an Olympic and
F. I. S. star in his own right, saw
his charges get off to a slow start
over the Christmas holidays with
a last-place finish in the Inter-
collegiate Ski Meet at Lyndon-
ville. Vermont. After their inaus-
picious debut, however, the skiers

took ninth place in a 22-team
starting field in the Hanover Re-
lay Race.

place .showing in the Amherst

AMERICA'S LEADING MANUFACTURER OF CIOARETTKt

By BUI Redman '54

In the process of rebuilding after
one of the most successful seasons
in Williams history, the 1951-52
basketball team closed out the
campaign with a record of 9 wins
and 10 losses. Coach Al Shaw sta-
ted. "The loss of Sheehy, Larson.
Speck, and Morse from last year's
starting five created a huge gap.
but the boys did a fine Job."

The Purple started the season
with tliree easy victories before

and Hofstra teams in the Hofstra
Tournament over the Christmas
holiday.s. They split four games
in early January and then hit
their iieak just before finals by
beatiii;^ Bill Prevey and Co. from
Massachusetts, 58-57 and downing
Wesleyan 59-29 in their outstand-
ing defensive performance of the
year.

Ephs Upset Springfield

Following this the Ephs hit the
doldrums with five consecutive de-
feats including Little Three losses
to a powerful Amherst team and
revamped Wesleyan. Siena, spark-
ed by Captain Billy Harrell drub-
bed the Shawman 69-45 in the
worst defeat of the season for>the
squad.

The Purple came back to edge
Worcester Polytech 53-52 and up-
set the highly-touted Springfield
aggregation, which included All
New England center Al Schutts.
58-57. The final game of the sea-
son saw the Ephs up against the
Lord Jeffs from Amherst for the
second time. At half-time the score
was tied but the superbly-balanced
Sabrina team pulled away in the
third period to win 67-58.

Saturday. March 16 — Despite
the loss to the Amherst quintet.
Coach Bobby Coombs' freshman
basketball team completed a win-
ning season, with thirteen victories
to their credit against only two
losses. The two losses, to Amherst
and the Siena Junior Varsity are
partly due to the loss of center
Tony Moro and forward Tom
White.

Although the team ended with a
13-2 record tlie loss to Amherst
prevented retaining the Little

Three contest the frosh easily
downed Wesleyan in Lasell Gym
a 68-47 score. With Moro sidelined
with a broken ankle and Ron Wil-

Starke Shines at Goal

Sophomore Rod Starke, leaving
his spot at defense by mid-season
to take over net tending duties
from injured Bud Hudson, accom-
plished a spectacular bit of read-
justment to emerge as a topflight
goalie by the close of the season,
averaging over thirty saves per
game.

John Beard, high scorer for the
team, along with second line stal-

depth on the team combined with
a series of injuries deprived Wil-
liams of a third line. This absence
led to an inevitable third period
exhaustion of the first two lines.

Traditionally poor skating con-
ditions at Williamstown did little
to help a team that needed prac-
tice, but it was the extremely stiff
competition the Purple faced in
such teams as Brown, St. Lawrence
and RPI that was the fundamental
difficulty.

toration ot the regular Williams
lineup of Squires, Symington Tho-
ron, George, Brownell, Brucker.
Tillinghast, and Fulkerson. Squires
celebrated his return to action by
leading the Purple to a 7-2 victoiy
over the Indians at Hanover.
Defend Little Three

Harvard handed the Ephmen
their second defeat of the season
before a houseparty crowd by a
7-2 count, as only George and
riUlnghast were able to win
against the powerful Crimson.
Trinity and Wesleyan were easy
marks as the Purple rolled into
high gear, swamping the opposi-
cion by 8-1 and 9-0 scores.

Soapy Symington and sopho-
more ace John Brownell were the
only Ephmen able to gain vic-
tories as the Yale juggernaut
swept to a 7-2 triumph in aveng-
ing its previous year's defeat. A
successful defense of the Little
Three Crown through a 7-2 de-
feat of Amherst ended the season's
dual matches before the Intercol-
legiates at Harvard.

Squires Bunner-up

While three other Ephs reached
the third round of competition be-
fore being eliminated in the Na-
tional tournament, it was Dick
Squires who stole the show by
fighting his way up to the finals
before he was defeated 3-1 by
first-seeded Charlie Ufford of Har-
vard. This marked the first time
in Purple annals that anyone had
progressed beyond the quarter-
final round. George, Brownell, and
Symington were the other Eph-
men to compete with such success.

Prospects for next year are very
bright. Coach Chaffee will have
the nucleus of returning lettermen
Squires, Symington , Brownell,
Brucker and Fulkerson about
which to mold his team, with a
number of good Freshmen comint;
up from the Little Three Cham-
pion Yearlings to fill out the squad.
Help will also be expected from
upperelassmen Friend, Billings and

lie called the American Frontier.
According to Turner's hypothesis,
the importance ot the land In the
westward expansion, was the chief
fuctor in deciding American pro-
gress.

Turner's theory might be sum-
med up in his own words: "The
frontier shaped America no less
than it shaped the pioneer". It was
lurner's theory that the tree lands
of the West served to decrease the
economic restraints of the east,
and that vices of the West were
temporary and that cultural ad-
vancement would come later. ^^^
Lecturer Disagrees

After explaining all this, Bastert
proceeded to give his reasons why
he and many other modern his-
torians believed that Turner's liy-
pothesis was incorrect. He closed
his lecture with the following
statement.

"I place my trust in the minds
of men, seeking solutions by in-
tellectual tools rather than by
drift and habit, bold to find new
ways of adjustment, and strong in
the leadership that spreads new
ideas among the peoples of the
world; committed to the faith in
peace on earth and ready to use
the means of preserving it. Amer-
icans, I hope will, not disagree."

Triumphal Finale

Saturday. March 15— A lino
showing in the New England
Championships and the dual meet
defeat of Amherst were the only
bright spots of the 1951-2 Wrestl-
ini! season, which saw the Purple
matmen emerge with a 1 and 5
record.

Misfortune befell the Ephmen
in their first contest against a
strong Harvard team, as ace
heavyweight Pete Sutherland was
injured and knocked out of com-
petition for the entire season. Tlie
Purple then dropped three in sue -
cession to Brown by a 10-21 count.
Springfield 13 - 18. and Coast

Lose Little Three

Wesleyan was the next Williams
opponent as the Purple sought to
defend their Little Three Crown
of three years tenure. Despite in-
dividual victories by Bill Callag-
han. who went through the season
undefeated, Bob Shorb and Dick
Edwards, the Ephmen were de-
feated 19-9 as Wesleyan won the
Little Three Title.

Amherst was the scene of the
final dual meet and the only Pur-
ple win of the campaign, as the
Ephs routed the Sabrinas 19-11.

commented the Plttsfleld editor.
We, however, don't try to
hide our reporter's talents under
a basket. . .

Living Conditions

Noting that many reporters who
first started out with city papers
later switched to small town
dailies. Miller pointed to the rela-
tive comforts of the small town
way of life. "But frankly," warned
tlie editor, "it won't be easy at
first for the married man. Have
you ever tried supporting a wife
and kids on fifty dollars a week'?"

Mr. Miller urged anyone start-
IrK out in journalism to pick his
paiier carefully, avoiding the tab-
loids and the chain paper whose
news slant, fixed editorial policy
and "frank sensationalism" ac-
cording to the Berkshire editor,
destroy the paper's integrity. "Get
on the right paper", he empha-
sized, "not one which has the in-
teKiity of a Five and Ten Cents
store window display."

Cut Throat Competition

"Sensationalism has no part in
the small town paper" continued
Mr. Miller, taking his own paper
as an example. The small town
paper, without local competition,
can avoid sensationalism, the edi-
tor stressed. "Cut throat competi-
tion among city dailies brings in
.seii.sationalism while integrity is
one of the strengths of a monopoly
like ours . . We can avoid being
dogmatic in our editorials and
flamboyant in our stories. . ."

"Independence, freedom from

outside pressure, a chance to help

the community — these are some of

the advantages of our monopoly

Saturday, March 15 — An inspcc-

spection of the Williams APROIC
unit today and yesterday. The
KToup came from headquarters,

Superior in Past

Yesterday President James P.
Baxter III held a luncheon at his
liome for the inspectors and tlie
officers of tlie Williams unit. Last
evening members of the college
ROTC staff held an informal gath-
ering at the Faculty Club in honor
(if tlie visitors.

For the last three years the
Williams unit has won superior
ratings. Since that time these
awards have been eliminated.
However, Col. John Lawrence,
ROTC commander, said, "I'm con-
fident that due to our increa-sed
activity piogram, doubled enroll-
ment, and overall high caliber of
perfoimance. we will present as
good a showing this year as we
liave In the past."

Increased Activity

The inci-ea-sed activity program
includes a mimeographed ROTC
newspaper, called the "Military
Secret." which is put out monthly
by a staff of six undergraduates
headed by Arthur Levitt '52. It Is
about ten pages in length. The
Rifle Team, also new. has already
conducted several mail matches, in
which scoi'es are mailed between
teams.

The recently installed drum and
bugle corps and honor drill team
will perfoim when drill begins
again sometime after spring vaca-
tion. Last year's enrollment of
about 200 in the Williams unit has
neaiiy doubled this year, and
future expectations are even high-
er.

Committee Raises Funds
To Rent Opera House

Tuesday. March 18 — In an effort
to improve the limited recreational
facilities now offered to Williams-
town high school students, the
local chapter of the United Chris-
tian "i'outh Movement is making
plans to convert the now unused
Williamstown Opera House, locat-
ed on Water Street across from
Grundy's Oarage, Into a youth
center.

Members of local churches have
formed a committee which agrees
to give over the center, when
completed .to the town on a non-
denominational basis.

ColIcKe Owned

Raising $400 to rent the opera
house Is the greatest problem fac-
ing the committee at present.
Owned by the college, the building
was recently leased to Mr. Fred-
erick Moore, proprietor of the Ta-
conic Lumber Co,

With the backing of the college
and several civic organizations as-
sured, the Williams Christian As-
sociation plans to employ students
now engaged In town chuich work

and Graham Humes '54 are acting
as advisors to committees of local

raising money and generally fur-
thering the plan.

Before the construction of the
Adams Memorial Theatre, all col-

Flying Club Buys
New Cessna 140

Cost Met by Loans,
Sale of Old Plane

Monday. Maich 17- David Bur-
gher '53, president of the Flying
Club, announced the purchase of
a new club plane at a meeting in
.Jcsup Hall this evening. The plane
a used Ces.sna 140, is expected to
be capable of greater speed and
operating economy than the one
previously used.

Finance to meet the $1800 price
for the new plane was derived
fi-om three souices. The sale of the
club's, Aeionca bi-ought $400
while $700 was loaned by members
of the oiganization. A Williams-
town bank loaned the final $700,
to be repaid quarterly by the club.
This loan was underwritten by
the SAC.

First Attempt Falls

Pi-eviously the Plying Club had
asked for a direct loan of $1400,
but this proposal was tui-ned down
by the SAC due to lack of funds.
The executive committee of the
council however, suggested an al-
ternative plan whereby the loan
might be made by a bank and
undei-written by the SAC. This
plan was altered so as to reduce
the amount of the loan and relieve
some of the pressuie on the coun-
cil.

A new constitution was read by
Peter Mczey '52. After dtscussion
of several articles and by-laws,
the document was ratified and
.signed by the 15 membeis pre-
sent. Included in the rules and by-
laws wei-e regulations aimed at
better regulating reservation of the
plane, and more equal allotment
of flying time.

Fines To Be Levied

In order to aid in raising money
towaid payment of the club debt,
certain fines were thought advis-
able. Also. It was decided that full
charge should be made to those
who signed for the plane at defi-
nite houis and who fail to make
use of it.

Sunday. Maixih 16— President
James P. Baxter III said today
that after consulting with student
Kioups, trustees, alumni and fac-
ulty members he found "no ade-
quate grounds" for attempting to
institute deferred rushing before
completion of a student union
building and f i-eshman center in
1953.

"We want to start deferred
rushing off under the best pos-
.sible auspices." he said, "not in a
makeshift or hasty fashion,"
Discussed Matter "Afresh"

The Williams trustees voted last
January 19 to inaugurate deferred
lushing when the new building
projects are completed in the
autumn of 1953.

The president .said he had "dis-
cussed the matter afresh" with
I the Undergraduate Council and
I members of the Sterling Commit-
tee in tlie light of some student
feeling that defei-red ru.shing
.should be put into effect at once.

He .said that neither group con-
curred with the pi-oposal.

Therefoi'e. he said, "there seems
to me to be no adequate grounds
for me to recommend to the
Board of Trustees that they re-
considei- their action of January
19."

President Baxter also discussed
the question March 12 at a
luncheon meeting with members of
the steering committee of the
League for Total Membership and
Associate Professor James M.
Burns. The proposal to advance
to next fall deferred rushing and
separate fieshman dining was
made by Seth L. Shapiro '53 in a
recent letter to the editor of the
RECORD.

The League for Total Member-
ship is composed of students,
faculty mcmbei-s. and alumni whn
favor the adoption of a system of
complete fraternity membership at
Williams. N. Arnold Levin '52 is
chairman of the steering commit-
tee, which comprises 12 members
elected from the membership of
the League.

Support McCleUan Plan

Louis P. Remick '53. member of
the steering committee, reports
that the league Is currently devot-
ing Its efforts to the adoption by
the college the McCleUan Plan to
prevent stratification of fratei-nity
houses under a system of defen-ed
rushing.

Remick added that the forth-
coming student union building
"will aid In pioviding social facili-
ties, as did the Garfield Club, but
win not be a solution to the piob-
lem. We of the league think that
total rushing Is the only solution
to the basic problem of the non-
fraternity man."

Baxter Signs Freedom Message
Broadcast to Communist Peoples

Appeal Requests Russia
To Revive Principles
Of 1917 Revolution

Wednesday, March 12 — Presi-
dent James P. Baxter HI was
among a group of 60 prominent
Americans who signed a message
which was bioadcast to the Rus-
sian people today calling for a
"new triumph of freedom" In the
Communist country.

The message, commemorating
the thirty-flfth anniversary of the
democratic Russian Revolution of
March 12, 1917. was sent to Rus-
sia and all countries behind the
Iron Curtain by the Voice of
America. Radio Pi'ee Europe, and
other Western information .serv-
ices.

Senators Join

Signed by well-known citizens.
Including a bi-partisan group of
U. S. Senators, the message maiks
the overthrow of Czar Nicholas
and the establishment of a repub-

lic later destroyed by an armed
Communist coup.

The signers stated "We re.iect
as a libel on all humanity the

' Kremlin's efforts to convince us
that the ideals of liberty and jus-

I tice which inspired you in March

1917. no longer live in your hearts."

Recall Liberty

' They recalled that the first acts
of the revolutionary government

I at that time provided freedom of
speech, press, and assembly, liber-
ated political prisoners, ended re-
ligious and racial restrictions,
abolished the secret police, and
set up machinery for establish-
ment by universal suffrage of a
constituent assembly.

"We know." the message con-
cluded, "that until the democratic
principles which inspired you
thirty-five years ago achieve their
secure triumph, the United States

Chapin Exhibit Honors
Harriet Stowe Classic

Display Features Copies
Of 'Uncle Tom's Cabin'

Wednesday. March 19— The one-
liundredth anniversary of the pub-
lication of Harriet Beecher Stowe's
"Uncle Tom's Cabin" will be ob-
served tonight in Chapin Memorial
Librai-y at 7:30 p. m. Mr. Luther
S. Mansfield. Associate Professor
of English, delivers a talk In con-
nection with the librai-y's display
of original and early editions of
'Uncle Tom."

Mr. Mansfield's lecture will be
followed by scenes from Florence
Byerson and Colin Clement's
"Harriet."

The exhibition, prepared by
Martin K. Howes, Chapin Library
Custodian, includes a first edition
copy of "Uncle Tom's Cabin" pub-
lished in 1852 by John P. Jewett
and Co. of Boston. Prior to 1852,
the book had appeared in serial
form in the "National Era," a
leading anti-slavery weekly.

Foreign Translations

Included in the exhibition will
be an early English edition of the
novel in 13 weekly parts with illus-
trations by George Cruikshank
along with "The Uncle Tom's
Almanac." Early editions in
Flench and German, contempo-
rary criticisms, an early dramatic
version, and other writing by Mrs.
Stowe form the remainder of the
exhibition.

Mrs Stowe's first published lit-
erary work, "Prize Tale; A New
England Sketch", published at
Lowell, Mass. in 1834 is perhaps
her best known work besides
"Uncle Tom's Cabin." A first edi-
tion of this novel, one of four
copies owned by public libraries,
will be on display.

Over 6,000,000 Copies

"Uncle Tom's Cabin," hailed as
the "Iliad of the blacks," was im-
mediately a best seller and was
translated into 40 foreign lan-
guages. It seems probable that
over three million copies of the
book have been sold in the United
States with the total world-wide
distribution probably exceeding
six and a half million,

A year after the publication of
"Uncle Tom," Mrs. Stowe prepared
a "Key to Uncle Tom's Cabin" in
which she accumulated a large
number of documents and testi-
monies against the slavery evil.
Two variant copies of the first
edition of this book are on exhibit,
one in paper covers and the other
In original cloth boards.

The scenes from "Harriet," di-
rected by William J. Martin of the
Adams Memorial Theatre, will cast
Eve Child as Harriet. Other roles
will be played by Dorothy Little,
Jean and Betsy Bi-yant, Timothy
Beard '53, Robert Burioughs '54,
John Stone '52, Russell Carpenter
'54, and Seth Schaplro '53.

West College Gets
Bogus Chimneys

Structures to Reproduce
Original 1791 Edifice

The construction of four false
cliimneys on top of West College
during recent weeks may appear
cui'ious since the building will have
neither fireplaces nor a heating
system of its own when the pres-
ent i-econstruction is completed ')y
the opening of college next fall

Interviewed bricklayers failed to
give any explanation for the new
addition which did not adorn the
building before It was gutted by a
Christmas vacation fire in Janu-
ary. 1951.

Member of the art department,
however, revealed that the 16 foot
brick structures were necessary to
insure architectural and historical
suitability. Built in 1791. the orig-
inal West College belonged to a
period when heating was done
completely with fireplaces. Hence
chimne.vs were an indispensable
part of construction.

Practical Uses

Mr. Peter Welanetz. Superinten-
dent of Buildings and Grounds
stated, however, that the chim-
neys will have other than aesthetic
value. Although no fireplaces are
to be installed in the reconstruct-
ed suites, the chimneys will be
used as outlets for the air circulat -
ing ducts from the stairwells.

Vents will also open into the
chimneys from the bathroom ven-
tilation system or from the sewer
gas venting system. Exhaust from
the emergency lighting plant in
the basement will also be conduct-
ed out one of the chimneys, which
will also serve as foundations for
lightning i-ods.

Another change designed to
achieve a greater degree of his-
torical accuracy is seen In the
changed cupola which is higher
and nari'ower than its predecessor.

Plan to Cut Down
Uninvited Visitors

College Inaugurates
Guest Card System

Monday. March 17— A new set
(if college rules designed to limit
1 he influx of uninvited visitors on
liouseparty weekends, keep Sun-
day houseparty activities "small,
informal and quiet," and restrict
the number of social occasions
financed out of house funds, has
been announced to the UC by
Dean Brooks. Commenting on the
new rules. Dean Brooks said that
the houseparty visitor problem has
increased in all New England col-
leges since the war. He indicated
that several other colleges will
soon join with Williams in estab-
lishing a guest card system, under
which identification of visitors at
fraternity dances will be enforced.
Sunday Parties

Siiiee the holding of joint fra-
ternity functions on Sunday makes
it dilTicult for house officers to
maintain the necessary decorum.
all activities on Sunday have been
confined to single fraternities.
Anything which might attract
outside attention has been ruled
out by the Dean.

In line with the report of re-
tiring Chairman George Bartlett
of the UC Entertainment Commit-
tee that its operations have been
ineffective. Dean Brooks an-
nounced that he has taken over
the job of handling applications
tor social functions in fraternities.

Curfew hour for women in Pi-a-
ternlty Houses have been stand-
ardized for the entii'e college.

Non-Affiliate Representation

For ()\iT a liioiitli the uoii-lratcniitv nicii at Williams ha\(.'
luul no voice in campus <j;o\cniniciit. Since tlic ri'sit;nation of
the C^artiekl Chil) reprcseiitati\cs from tlie Undi'ri^raduale Coun-
cil, tlie colletje i;(i\ crnmenta! hoclv has hi'cn composed strictly of
fraternity men. One fifth of the eollcne has no sav in student
affairs. If the collci^e desires to seek out nou-affiliate opinion on
some important issue such as the ])laiininn of the new Student
llnion it can turn to no official source h)r its information. .Mthoiiirli
it is true that the ( Garfield CMuh i^ave up its riijht of re|)resentati()u
of its own fri'e will, it is also true that it is unlair that oni' out ol
every live stuileiils should have no voice in campus gONcnimcnt.
Ortainlv all Williams men should be represented if the Vmlcr-
<S,raduiitv Ooimcil is to li\e up to its name ami not become an
Intcrfidtcnuli/ ( ;ouncil.

We do not pi'0|5ose to jjamper the non-affiliates who i;ave up
their UC ])osts of their own fiec will. The whole college however,
must be represented on the student i;o\erninii; board. Therefore
we urjre the present Undert^raduate Council to study means tor
leestablishiuir all-iollej^e inemhership to the UC. We see two wavs
of doinir this. The non-alhliates could vote by clas.ses and elect
one reiiresentative ]Kt class. This would gi\c this fifth of the
eolk'ne one sixth of the votes on the UC. It would mean that one
man would speak for fifty fellow students. This is aliiu)st <'.\actly
the same ratio of representative to represented that the Irateiiiitii'S
enjoy at presi-nt. If the non-affiliate election were carried out on a
class basis anti ukmi who do not eat at (^mrier Hall were insured
llu' ri<;ht to vote in these elections, no stigma of hypocrisy coidd
be attached to e.\-Garfield CJlnb men who fa\ored the CHub's
dissolution.

The other solution to this problem would be to change the
(iresent basis for ehoosinu; UC members. This would entail takius;
UC membership out of the houses. .Although this miij;ht seem
unfeasible at first, it would l)e entirely possible to have house
officers working under the Dean's office take chari^e of enlorciiii;
house social rules while a se]5aratc bodw elected from the eolley;e
as a whole and perhajis includin<; certain campus activ ities, nm
the political life of Williams. This action would rciluee the houses
to a true social unit status and woukl tleeniphasize the political

The other day my attention was ealli'tl to an old f'rieiul of
mine who had spent a suTnmer tourina; Europe and was still re-
coverinj^ from his French accent. lie is a likeable chap hut impres-
sionable to a fault and since he lias been back there have been
moments when even his hi'st friends have crini^ed.

Me was easier to brinir fruit to a buddinp; romance the seeds
of which were sown on fi)rcij;;n soil. Torn between a range of poses.
he pondered several epistulary approaches to the young lady. Ik'i
name was Wendy.

Tlic Contincnlii] Approach
Chere Wendie,

Ah, it has been so long! 1 remember well Capri . . . and vou.
The olive trees in bloom and the intimate piaza, C'est tres char-
mant! Ah, those supeih people! I knew those people. I used to

walk in the hills after tea at the hotel. But around us both you

and me — the aziire-hhu- sea. the robins-egi;-blue sky, those
emerald colored hills. There was a beauty. Gone now. But ))er-
haps you and I shall meet as^ain. \ j^lass of wine ... a small cafe , . ,
von , , . and ... I . . ,

The Cnoil-fcUotc Approach
Hi Wendy!

Boy it's great to he back in the old country, eh! It was great '
to he in Europe, too! Well, how have vou been'? I've been "kickin' i
around"! But it's great to be back in college again, even if Europe !
was fun, too! I met Tetl the other day. Yon remember Ted, don't
vou? He's a riot! I think vou met him, but anyway, he's (). K, 1
sure would like to see you again! We could really gc?t together
and have a great time! Well, take care of yourself, kid! Don't
take any uranium knickles (ha), and , , ,

The Tom Soul Approach
Wendy —

The melting snow is rmuiing in gentle tricklets over the win-
dow next to me. Outside the rpiiet of the cool bleak day sends
small children scurring to their homes and the warm firesides. It
is beautiful, winter. Oil, severe, cold winter! Honest winter! The
pure snow purges the heart, which, turning like the friglitened
doe at eventide, follows a hidden trail to its home, its seclusion.
How beaiitifid it must hi' to find one cherished thing to fiirust in
our storm-tossed world. I recall now a distant wind that blew
across the stillest Seine, and vou were there , , . Paris ami von . , .
Praniatic Talc Approach

\ man was walking along the cold, dark jiuigle path, lie held
his coat tight against the wind that whipped through the wet trees,
and he sfiuinted against the swirling leaves. His face was thin and
(lale, his hands honey and bhu-. He fought on a way, then suddenly
sat down, drawing his coat tighter. His hair was blown and
matted, and bis thin hands kneaded the coat. "It's been a long
time now," he thought, "It was one of those sunny Paris days in
June . . .

The I'liniii/ Fable Approach

Wendy, I was walking along a wigglv little road on a for-
gotten island, when I came across a jollv aardvark.

"Hello, Aardvark. " I laughed.

"Hello, Hinnan. " he chuckled.

"How are you, .Aardvark, " 1 chortled.

"Not so well," he giggled . . .

" coui-aKBOus aspirants of physical combat, "lis Rugby time
(iiice again.

With the glories of the past gridiron season complete and filed
away In the nnnals of Williamsiana, there appealed recently a
iiminiscenl but curious spectre. It was the shadow of football's aged
iiiicestor, Rugby!

As the spring approaches, and vacation draws near, students at
miiiiy colleges head southward, destination: Berniuda. Kach year
.,t this time, also, Fan- American Airlines (purely lor publicity rea-
sons) provides an all expense paid trip for any and all comere'
representliiK their college In the Hermuda Invitalionai Kugby Matches.
Having visions of the island's luxurious splendor, two men from Wil-
liams set to work to form an "lOph fifteen". (That's a new one. Ed.
note: Each team will field l") combatants.) With entries from Har-
vard, Yale, and Princeton it was decided by Coaches Jack Melcher
and Kudy (iarfield. of AII-Ann-rica Chess fame, that their team also
would provide a feature atlracdon lor i'an-American. (With all
cvpenses paid, why not'??)

poR THOSE who are unaccniainled with the game of Rugby, may
I enlighten you. Each team Is "equipped with" 15 gladlator.s.
lined up on an oversized football field with an oblate .spheroid at the
line of ".scrummage". (Yes the word is ".scrummage") Somebody
yells "GO!" and all Hell breaks loo.se. After the fir.st 15 minutes of
play if thei-e are no serious casualties, llie contest is stopped — lack
of .spirit. At half-time, grounds crews are employed to clear the field
of all debris which may have collected ^ arms. toes, teeth, etc. Score
Is kept according to how many men are killed on each side.

Unlike our football, time-outs are not allowed. Forward passing
is illegal as Is duwnfield interference. After the bail is put in play
al "scrummage" a "scrum" starts. With neither team wearing any
lirotective equipment, the offensive team attempts to put the in-
flated hide over the opponents goal line by any means they are,
physically capable of. ramiliar to the l{erniu<la affairs are many
performers either obviously in need of or <'ompietely saturated with al-
coholic stimulants — for medicinal purpose of course.
P rUANGELY enough, a decided lack of intcwst thwarted the hopes
of Lords Melcher and Garfield. "The trouble was," stated
playcr-coach-manager Melcher. "everyone was afraid that once we
i;ot down there, that we might really have to play." If spirit and sup-
port arc high enough next season, however, the invitation still holds.
What .say, you athleU's — "A spot of tea after the bloody Ijout?"

In Semi-finals; Squires

Forced to Withdraw

Wednesday, March 19— In a
thrill packed finale, decided in the
fifth match, Charles "Soapy"
Symington defeated John Brownell
to win the 1952 Williams College
Squash Championship.

After dropping the first game,
Symington won two straight 15-11
and 15-C to take the lead. Brownell
evened the count with a 15-8 vic-
tory in the fourth game, but Sym-
ington bested the sophomore in
the last contest to cinch the title.

In reaching the final round,
Symington downed, in order, Pete
Pickard, Hank Schrelr, and Tom
Adkins, after drawing a first
round bye, and then blasted third
seeded Ray George off the court,
3-0.

Squires Forced to Default

Brownell, displaying winniii;!
form, earned the right to meet
Symington in the finals by van-
(lui.shing five opiionents, including
a 3-0 semi-final win over Tom
Blacker.

Top-seeded Dick Squires, last
year's title holder, was forced to
default in the third round to John
Malcolm '52 due to a .serious \v>.i
injury. Playing in the finals of the

To Begin This Week

Closing the regular season with
a victory over the previously un-

finished In a fir.st.-place tie with
the Fiji's in Tuesday League in-
tramural play. The Thursday di-
vision which clo.sed its scheduled

a dead heat between the AD's and
the Chi Psi's.

i The Dekes' 22-14 win over Phi
! Gam. v\'ith Chuck Salmon's 10
points setting the pace, made the
victors slight favorites in the forth
coming playoff game. The teams
had identical 6-1 records for the
season.

AD's Also Favored
Meanwhile, the once-defeated
AD's were given the edge over
the Chi Psi's by virtue of a 22-14 \
victory in their last outing. The
underdogs, however, present the
top one-two scoring punch in in-
tramural circles in Paul Doyle and
Ken Heekin. Neither divisional
playoff date had been set at press
time.

Elsewhere in the Tuesday brac-
ket, the Phi Sigs i4-3i and the

Bowdoin Presents
Major Opposition

Eph Hopes Depend
On Martin, Jones

by Jud Klein, '54

Sunday, Mar. 16— The NEISA
championships, scheduled for Mar.
21-22 at M.I.T., figure to develop
into a private two-college affair,
at least in the eyes of Bob Muir.
The Eph swimming coach, as well
versed as any on the water sport
hei cibouts. sees only one major
barrier — Bowdoin — between the
Pui|)le and the coveted New Eng-
land intercollegiate team title.

Williams' chances depend main-
ly on their ace freestyle pair of
Dick Martin and Don Jones, the
meet's only two-event winner a
yeai' ago. Although Trinity's and
Brown's 48 points apiece of a 257
total was tops last year, Muir
thinks a less-evenly matched field
should force the winners score
this time well into the 50's.
Jones Eph 220 Candidate

If Muir dares use Martin in the
opening 300-yd medley relay, 'Wil-
liam.s .should walk away with the
event. In order to save the strap-
ping sprinter for later tests, how-
ever. Muir likely w'ill start Dave
Byeily, John Belash, and Rick
Jeffrey. The latter trio has post-
ed limes about on a par with the
other top entries.

Jones is defending 220-yd. free-
style champion, but Brown's Jim
Cameron holds a dual-meet de-
cision over him. Bowdoin's Bob
McGrath and Amherst's Roy Gree-
ber also are strong in the event.
Other Eph possibilities in the 220
are John Beard. Joe Worthington,
and even Mariin. who holds the
New England record.

Martin Holds 50 Mark

Martin also holds the New Eng-
land 50-yd. sprint record, but fa-
ces strong competition from Ralph
Brisco of Brown, Merc Tate of
Amherst, Wesleyan's Dick Barth,
winner last year, and McGrath,
the previous record-holder.

The Purple's Max Rogers will
probably rate no better than a
third or fourth in the dive. De-
fending champion Larry Boyle of
Bowdoin, Springfield's Pat Hud-
dleston, and Brov\n's Dick Pfann-
kuc appear to be the cream of the
divers.

rington prize "to that senior best
suiied for graduate study in bic-
logy": and the Hubbard Hutchin-
son Memorial scholarship for two
years of graduate study at $3,000
a year.

Swimming . . .

The 100 yd freestyle could de-
develop into a re-run of the 50.
Hie same favorites rule, with
Martin again owning the best
lime. Belash, John Beard, and
Sam Kimberly also are Williams
entries.

Amherst's Don Wassie appears
as a good bet to ivpeat his win of
a year Lgo in the 200-yd. back-
stroke, although McGrath has
ttliippi'd him. Bowdoin's Bob Ar-
wezon and the Eplis' Dave Byerly
aiso might surprise.
Jeffrey, Douglas in Breaststroke

Muir rates the breaststroke one
of his strongest events, with Jef-
frey and Charlie Douglas slated
to enter. Springfield's Bill Yorzyk
owns the only clocking better than
Jeffrey's fastest.

The only loss which Jones has
suffered in the 440-yd. freestyle
since his victory in last year's
New- Euglands came at the hands
of teammate Worthington. Outside
competition likely will come from
Wesleyan's Jan Vandenburg and
Tom Lyndon of Bowdoin.

Huwdoin Relay Favorite

Muir intends to send Worthing-
ton into the 300-yd. individual
medley against .such versatile stars
as Cameron, Yorzyk, and Arwezon,

Bowdoin should cop the final
400-yd. freestyle relay without
much trouble, but the Purpda
quartet of Martin. Jones, Belash,
and either Kimberly or Beard
could easily cop second.

Edging into the cage spotlight,
the interfraternily volleyball race
got underway Monday, as the Psi

ed off against AD. Phi Delt met
Zeta Psi and the Kaps took on a
power-laden faculty aggregation.

The long overdue consolation
round of the inter-house squash
tourney has been delayed again
by the lack of suitable runoff date.
The Phi Delts and the Zetes ad-
vanced to the quarter finals with

that the student should follow on his own in-
itiati\'e; since he hasn't done so recently, the ad-
miiiisiation is justified in cnUireinn Iheni. Altlioui^li the regulations

Minfard lioiul. Nou-Alliliale; The Dean's suj^^i'^iti"" that
hoiiM iiarties be made more <|uiel .md subdued seems to h<' a well-
luseil idea. Williams has tradilionallv been a "i^entleman's collej^e",
and lie best way to insur<' preservation of this heritaj^c is to pro-
lilhil uninvited quests from creating; rowdy scenes on the Williams
niMi|iiis. I'or this reason, the nuest-eard svslejn seems to me an
(.xeeliiul innovation.

\notlier idea which 1 leel would promote i^eutlcmauK con-
duel al Williams would be tlu' pres<'neeol nKMC parties. 1 feel that
if mine parties (possibly moutlix' dances) were to be held bv the
variiiiis houses the teudencv would be to cease "Koinj; o\crboard"
at auv sinijle celebration. This would seem to be prehuable to a
svsleiii where each party is to be looki'd forward to as "a bit; l)last".

.Monday. Mar, 17 — In the latest
of a series of robberies on Sprint;
Street, two unidentified thieves
broke into Hart's Pharmacy last
night and made off with a camera
and $50 in cash.

According to a statement by

ing the cellar door, went up.stans
and looted the cash register. They
apparently made their exit the
same way they had come, via the
cellar entrance.

Police Deny Rumor

Earlier in tlie evening, two
prowlers had been spotted in the
vicinity of the House of Walsh,
according to store officials. The

rumor that, acting on a false lead,
they had lain in waiting at the
House of Walsh, across the street
from Hart's while the pharmacy
was being victimized.

the campus. Hidden behind a rather ordinary e.\terior — sometimes
describetl b\' the more critical as a "Ldorificd gas station" — the in-
side is indeed most im|iri'ssi\c.

In the center of the building one finds the loiuigc with a
ceilinji two stories high. This ceilinu; is made of pecky cypress
with pine cones on the coiner of the cornice. To cover the floor

Perhaps the most outstanding feature is the Gothic tapestry
hanging on the wall opposite the fireplace. This has been described

In the basement of the building lecreatiou facilities are |)ro-

tables, billiard tables, and two .shuffle board courts. On the
second floor there are two guest rooms that may be reser\ed hv

Waterman Board Chairman O

Thursday, March 20 — Before a
near capacity crowd in the Thomp
son Biology Laboratory today, Mr,
Jack B. Ludwig. instructor in Eng-
lish, delivered the final lecture
in ihe Faculty Lecture Series, Mr,
Ludwig's talk entitled. "Art and
The Audience", pointed out the
attitude of the modem public's
attitude toward modern literature.

Mr. Ludwig accredited the ori-
gin of the present attitude toward
modern literature to the change
from art as art to art as a craft.
This was brought about when au-
thor:; '"pped writing for the de-
sires o ,5atrons, and yielded to the
requirements of the publisher, the
reader and the reviewer.

He then pointed out the diverse
schools of thought about modern
writing, sa.ving that literature is
called obscure, unrealistic, and in
some cases fantasy. He concluded
with the statement that the scien-
tist gets complete freedom and is
never .judged for his accomplish-
ments, and all that the artist asks
is not to be pre-judged.

Clean Eating Facilities

Sanitary Provisions

Saturday, Mar. 22 — After many
years of apathy toward the sani-
tation problem of Willlamstown's
restaurants and drugstores, the
Board of Health has decided to
undertake a "clean up or shut
down" campaign. This action is
being directed by chairman Lois
Demayo. and he will be assisted by
Dr. Thomas Urmy, who recently
became a member of the board.

Last f;ill all restaurants in this
area received a special sta'^e in-
spection, after which it was re-
ported that, although 70"- of them
were in respectable condition, the
remainn;': 30';; needed much im-
provemmt. Some establishments
received scores as low as fifty out
of a po : ible one hundred points.
Individual Scores Not Released

No flf ures for individual res-
taurant^ will be released, since the
Board ol Health hopes that it can
accomplish what is needed in a
"gentleman-like" manner. In gen-
eral the cleanliness of the facili-
ties and the sloppy handling of
the food are the two things which
must bf improved.

During the last few years this
same problem has arisen numer-
ous times, but lack of action by
town officials resulted in no im-
provements. The Board has mow
taken complete control and has
the authority to force action from
the drugstores and restaurants.

As a part of the general "clean-
up" and sanitation program, the
Board plans to conduct a rabies
clinic sometime next week.

Saturday. Mar. 22 — The Wil-
liamstown Police Department,
which hitherto has never consist-
ed of more than three men, had
its compliment raised to four last
week with the appointment of
Patrolman Archie W. Donnelly.
Donnelly received a pei'manent
position on the force following an
interview with Chief of Police
George Royal and a vote of the
town selectmen.

Of the three candidates who
applied for the opening, only Don-
nelly had any previous police ex-
perience. He has held the post of
special officer for the past five
years while working as a plumber
and steam fitter in North Adams,
holding the office of vice-presi-
dent of the Plumbers and Steam

Saturday, Mar, 22— "The Power
of God in Daily Living", a preach-
ing and healing mission conducted
by the Reverend aird Mrs, Edgar
Sanford. will center around a
series of services at the St. John's
Church, March 23-27.

Operating on the principle that
the diseases of many people lie in
their minds, not in their bodies,
the mission alms (o help individ-
uals apply faith to everyday life.
The leaders of the mission claim
they see "no conflict between the
use of spiritual means in healing
and medical practice".
Not a Cult

Mrs. Sanford asserts that the
mission is not a cult or a fad and
it does not bear any relation to
Christian Science. Interested in
theories only as they apply to the
practice of healing, she beli-Eves
that "the church universal is suf-
ficient framework for the develop-
ment of the recreating power of
God."

Author of "Healing Light" and
"Oh. Watchman' Mrs. Sanford
claims to have Iconed "through
experiment and ijvayer those ad-
.iustments to Gori that set free
His power to heal". "Healing
Light", which has sold nearly
100,000 copies, tells of various
people she has heliied and healed.
Conduct Classes
Although Mi^Satpford is the
rector of parl^nSm 'Westboro and
Hopklnton. Mass.. Mrs. Sanford

In several cities and other commu-
nities The Reverend and Mrs. San-
ford have Just returned from a
mission in Charlotte. S, C. and
similar conferences have been
held throughout the United States
and in England and Canada.

The mission has scheduled a
morning talk each day by Mr.

\l(>n(la\', till' .uliiiiiiistratidii aiiiiimiici'il its new set ul social lulcs
to the C'oii.sti'niatioii of some and to tlic ri'llcl of others. It was evi-
dent that the situation deinancled a ehaime h)r some time l)eeanse
ol tile e\'er inereasiiiy; disregard tor student social rnles. Student
jfowrmiient was nnahle to eope ade(|natelv uith the situation, and
the Dean's Oltiee and the Oiseipline (.'ominittee were loncd to
.step in. The new rules re|)resent almost entireU a desirabli' step
toward an imprmeinent o\-er the social situation that existed prior
to Mouihiv niL;ht. \t iiiiK' one point do we dissent IVom auri'einent
with the remilatioiis and think that a niore liberal snbslitiiti' wonld
he better.

Kstablishin-^ (lie i;nest card s\'stein to close Williams week-
ends to the uninvited, 'prolessional' weekentler will ipiiet down
lionseparties ami result in what is a more pleasant time for a
laiije number ol Williams men. Since other colleges are '^I'ini^ to
institute the same svstem and since the collen<' is still allouini^ a
number of quests (the exact figure is b\- no means sacred for all
time) to come to Williams on housepart\- weekends. Miere is no
reason to find fault with this rule. Indeed, the undernradnates
must aid die Dean's Office in seeint; that this rule is carried out in
order to make Williams weekends more enjoyable. I'olice are
iiecessar\- to enforce this rule, hir Iraternitx- officers. Iia\ ini; dates
themselves in man\' cases, wonld be powerless ai;aiiist a mob of
outsiders who wished to muscle their wa\' into a house dance.

The restrictions placed on Suiida\ lraternit\' social lunetions
diirint; hoiisepart\ are easib' understandable. Tliex were put into
effect niainlv to maintain the obser\aiice of tlii' traditional mores
ol the town. The new role will not cut down on the actual amiiunt
of partvini;. but will only lessen outside noise. The tovMispeopU^
at least deserve this much.

The new regulations on lionse taxes for li(|iior make certain the
riiilit of each individual to choose for liimsell whellier or not he
will drink. This rule will not alter apprcciabb' the campus situation,
but it will t;i\e e\('r\- student the ueniiine op])ortnnit\- to decide
for himself what kind of a time he is sjoiiii; to ha\"e on a Williams
weekend. N'o bouse needs to lia\c more than fi\e occasions per
\'ear that rei|nire a blanket house tax. (.'asli-on-the-barrel b\' onlv
those who want to particiiiate is the onb' wa\' to be lair to all.

Regular Weekend Curfew . . .

The ureat maioritv of tlie rnles have a i^ood deal of reason be-
hind them. The drinkini; tax rule insures tlu' riijht of a i^erson
to exercise his own personal jndtjment. the i;nest card rule will
eliminate one of the i;reatest .sources for tlu' dei;en(ration of Wil-
liams lionseparties. (|nietiii'4 Snnda\' lesti\ities will |ilease the
towns|5eo|ile. and the eaih Siindax' in'uht curfew for h(nisepart\'
weekends will sjet things back to normal at a more reasonable
time. But the new curfew lor ici^nlar weekend iii<^hts is too harsh.
Except lor the trianmial lionseparties. Williams is a prettv dead
place socialK'. This lack ul social activity causes a mass exoilns
from the campus e\er\- uerkend, while those that do stav in Wil-
liamstown ha\e nowhere to yo besides their fraternitv houses.
Massachusetts blue laws prevent students from ijoini; out to nearln-
bars, and so tliev must make the longer trip to New York State il
thev want to stav out )iasl the house deadline. This will jirobalilv
end in a i)roblem that is ol iiiiich greater concern tlian the amoniit
of adverse publicit\' thai llie later curfew caused. lionseparties
were a problem that needed to be checked, but ret;ular weekend
beha\ ior presented no e\ idence that a clianm' was needed. Staiid-
ardi/iiit; the curfew hours lor all honsi's helps ]ire\ent confusion.

be more sensible and all ".^ether within the riijlits ol collef;<' a'^e
people who ha\e not '^is.ii fair cause for this particular stvinfi;enc\.

However, the new Williams social rnles arc now in efhet.
Mass breakini; of these lules will lead only to a t;reater number of
dismissals. We think nll■^l of the rules are an improvenient, but
as hir the reynlar weekrnd curfew hours, we concur with the idea
ol Lincoln when he said 'We think the . . . decision is erroneniis.
We know that the court lliat made it has often (nerruled its own
dieisions. and we shall do what we can to have it overrule this. We
offer no resistance to it."

Blue Law Survey ...

The administration must be told that diis solution is not accep-
table to the student body. In turn, tlie student body must take
some positive action on its own part to reiiiedv the |rrobl<'m.

Pflc SIitHii^ '.5.'1 Deke: In lii;ht of the alarmini; number of
incidents and ijrievances marriny cnrrent Williams social life. I
feel that the new disciplinary regulations were ine\ital)le. Some
new rnles were needed; the administration has satisfied this need

1066 AND ALL THAT

To the Kditor of the HKCOlil);

The manner in which the new rules were imposed upon the
student IiikK' makes a niockerv of the idtniistie prolest;itioii that
student noverniiicnt exists to cmmi tlu' slinlitesl decree at Wil-
liiuMS. Hules ;ue made to correct evils. The onlv reason we can as-
sign to the admiiiistratioii's reticence to explain the Iciiiale curlew
clause is their desiie to side-step eiiibmassiiii; dociiuienlation.
The iiKiture man castini; even a cnrsorv i;laiiee ;U the new rules
can discern tlu' tliouiihts which losteri'd them.

It is always me;iiiini;ful to look to the past hir tried and practi-
cal solntiuns to prohlenis. Mcilieval mores, though nccasioiudlv
unwieldy, always faced social difficulties with laudable straii^bl-
lorvvartlness ami simplicity. .No I'uibarasscd skirtini; ol the icnlral

its iivvii tlionnlits. obtains solace in restrictiun the actions ol others,
would do well to resort to such mechanical salei;uards.

I'lowiiii; thr(ii|ij;b the nioniss of recent administrative einbar-
assinent, the esseiiti;d issue is obvious. Thi' suliitidu is even more
obvious. If the problem the administration implies exists in lact,

To Ihe I'dilor of the RKa)RD;

The student both' of Williams should be justK alarmed at the
eucroachment of the .Administration upon uiideri;radnate rit^lits.
The new conduct rules, spetihcally Ihe limilation ol Irateruitv
parlies and the eiiforceiiieiit ol an arhitrarv iiirli'W. are uncalled
tor. (.,'apilali/iii,n on the impression left bv a draiii;ilic and tr;i<j;ic
Wiiitei- Carnival, the culletje hopes to push llirout;h a set ol rci^u-
lalious which will limit to some dci^ri'c Ihe Ireedom ol tlu' stiulent.
The important point is not that the possibility ol evasion miij;ht
still exist niidi'r these new rules, but that the college is takini; oul
of the sludent's hands the rit^ht to dircrt bis own iiehav ior. 'I'lu'sc
rules V iolatt' the principles of personal responsibility which Wil-
liams trii's to bister in tlie iiuik'iu;iadiiale. ;\s we learn in onr l'',ph
Williams llaiiilhook— "It is the aim of the collei^e to develop in
the students a sense of personal respoiisibibtv lor t;o(id order. The
colleL;e insists on i;ood taste luid i;enlleinanly conduct. 'I'lie rules
are lew and explicit. . ." Not only are these new restrictions con-
trary to ihe spirit of the schoiil. but the\- will punish the whole
for ilie tnnis'j;ressioii of a distinct minority.

I ask what these rules hope to cure, except )iossiblv to show
the iiidi<,;iiatioii ol a rii;hteoiis faculty. .\re they worried about
the fraternitv curfew hecause their i)ii])ils aren't ijettini; I'lioueb
sleep or hceause of rmnored promiscnitvr' 1 think not. Do thev
think bv enmeshing a social function or parly in red tape and reg-
ulalion. they are curing an ev il? I doubt it. Not only are these new
rnles unjiislified and pointless as a cure, but they presuppost' an
evil that does not I'.xisl.

.Mso. if we must have new rules, wliy not have the collei;<'
state the specilic grievances and situations vvliicb it wishes reme-
died to Ihe Underyradnate (aiuncil, and then let Ihe I'C and the
student liodx' determine what ri'i^ulatiou it thinks ahsohilely lue-
essarv to remedy the specific evil 'I'o m;ike the \JC. merely a
strong arm man lor an athninistration dictalum iiiiderim'iies Ihe
initiative as well as the responsibility h>r effective stiulent noveiii-
ment.

What I would like answered is:

(1) What are the specific f^rievaiices which make the

rnles necessary':'
Does tlie .Ulministratiou reallv believe that their new

rnles will cure some existing evil':'

If rei^ulation is reallv necessary, why can it not eon;e

from our own Underi;raduate Council in which we

have some voice'?

Mr. Irwin is really on his toes all rinlil; the Iriiternitv system

Rut while the traternities are nobly doiiii; their |)art in sliow-

are woefully inadeipiate in this vital department and even redo-
lent of l''(|ualitarian doctrines. The hicidtv pi'rsisls in wasting
valuable lime with abstruse intellectual trivia, when what thev

■Wednesday, March 19 — Richard
C. Squires '53. who since his
freshman year has been a leader
in Williams racket sports, was
unanimously elected captain of
the 1952-3 Squash Team al an
after-dinner meeting al Coach
Chaffee's home. This year Squires
lost only two matches in the regu-
lar sea.son and bowed lo top-seed-
ed Charlie Uflord of Harvard in
the finals of the IntercoUegiates.
Al the tournament he was elect?d
President of the Intercollegiate
Squa.sh As.socialion.

Despite the fact that Squires
came to Williams with almost no
experience in squash he developed
rapidly under the tutelage of
Chaffee.

claim. "Uncle .lack" Coombs, Tony Fla
Ken Watters are hut a few of tlie color! ii
another. To those who have known and
(liafTec has provided a leadership and \
will not be forgotten,

IN 1924, Challee graduated from Brov.n University where he had
earned letters in football, basketball, ba.seball. and tennis. He
reminisces about the time when the Brown basketball team travelled
to Williamslowii back in 1924. "The great Harry Fi.sher was playing
for Williams thai year," Chafe recalls, "and we got killed, 41-11."
Chafe, I might add. playing forward foi the Bruins scored nine of
their eleven points. Chaffee earned himself a top position on the tennis
team in his junior year, and thus embarked on his court career. For
two years he played in Ihe number one and two spots for Brown.

In 1937, Clarence Chaffee came to Williams. Omitting the war
years, during which he served as an .Air lorce Major, Chafe has had
ten seasons in tennis and s(iuash here at Williams, in addition to three
.\ears as head soccer coich. In Tennis, h' has compiled a truly amaz-
ing record, taking six Little Three Chamiiionships. Against Amherst,
his teams have won eight of the ten mairhes.

IT WAS in 1946. Chaffee's first ,y< , ; back after the war. that
Williams rmished second behind ;. powerful Yale team in the
IntercoUegiates. Dick Hole and Fred Scnijner, playing in Ihe doubles
finals, were on the verge of victory with a number of match points,
but the two Yale greats. Carl Badger and Billy Ylivasaker edged them
in the grueling four hour marathon whicli ended after 72 games. Five
limes. Williams has walked off with the N E. I doubles championship,
and twice with ihe singles crown.

Our victory against North Carolina last Spring was, in Chafe's
mind his greatest team victory. The match with Amherst was almost
e(|ually as gratifying as Dick Stiuires and Tommy Kent slammed Billy
Smith and Kd Wesley of Amherst preventing the Jeffs from taking the
< uvcted "Eight-Point" Trophy.

IN SQUASH two years ago. the win over Harvard's lop national
ranking team marked another great moment in Ihe career of
the Williams coach. Thai team, led by such stand-outs as Captain
I-fichie Allen and Rog Dickinson "was the finest team I ever coached."
.■^aid Chafe. "Four of the men had never held a squash racket before
they came to Williams." And by the time Ihey left, they could be
ranked with the best. "In Rog Dickinson, I found the greatest competi-
tor I've ever had the privilege to cosich. He'd go for anythin cause
he never wanted to be beaten."

Dick Squires. "Soapy" Symington, and Captain Hank Norton will

provide the nucleus for the 1952

squad, with a number of promis-
ing sophomores coming fast. On

Rat Chase Fails
To Trap Animal

Monstrous Rodent Lurks
In Morgan Basement

by Les Nichols

Friday, March. 21- Nerves of
students In MorKiin Hall neared
the breaking point today as a de-
termined investigation by college
officials failed for tlif tilth straight
day to locate what one terridsid
student described as "the biggest
lat I ever saw."

Panic-stricken students, dissat-
isfied with the efforts of Superin-
tendent of Buildings and Grounds
Peter Welanetz's hand - picked
crew in combing the cellar of the
dormitory, threatened to take
matters into their own hands.

Morganites I'anicked

Discovering the rat last Sunday
on the third floor, Tim Tully '55
estimated the rodent to' be "at
least 15 inches long and 6 inches
thick." Tully claims that the rat
ran out of an old rug, and dis-
appeared down a hole in the floor.
An investigation by Chief Royal
determined the opining to be
exactly 2 13/16 inches wide.

Almost immediately after TuUy's
discovery, students from all over
the building reported seeing
rambling rodents of various sizes
on landings, in halls, and in bath-
rooms. Blind leads required sev-
eral hours' investigation before all
of the wary frosh would return to
their rooms. Tlie most promising
lead, however, was eliminated
when a search of the closet used
by the building's cleaning ladies
to store their equipment failed to
reveal mice, rats, or any other
form of diversion.

Bob Carey '55, under police
questioning, claims to have heard
"unusual scratchings" near his
room for several weeks prior to
the appearance of the rat, but,
attributing the disturbance to the
shuffling of cards in the next
room, never mentioned it. Local
police liave requested a geiger
counter from the. state police, m

es will lead them to the fugitive

13 Lettermen Back

Townsend is cautiously non-
committal about Eph prospects
this spring, but is obviously pleased
by a large preliminary turnout of
45 candidates, almost double that
of a normal spring-football year.

Included are 13 returning letter-
men from last year's varsity whicli
won four and lost three: defense-
men Pete Ingersoil. Dick Ca/e,
and Capt. Ptge L'Hommedieu;
midfielders Hodge Markgraf, Duke
Curtis, Neil Cha.se, Ed Shudt, and
Ted Johnson; attackmen Ted
Mitchell, Steve Whittier, Dave
Harrison, and Bruce Van Dusen;
and goalie John Sylvester.

A host of candidates, headeu
by goalie Rod Starke, are on hand
from the freshman team which
Townsend piloted to a 4-1 mark
last spring. Also back are Tony
Stolz, Cal Collins. Don Bayer, Lar-
ry Donoho, Dave West, Stu Chase,
Hugh Murphy. Dave Wliiteford.
and Jolin Loomis.

the Phi Delts prepped for the

had opened with a victory over the
Saints, and the Dekes came back
to trounce the Chi Psi's on Thurs-
day.

Commenting on his team's sav-
age play, one faculty star said,
"Nice guys don't win pennants. We
may not take the championship,
but you can bet we'll have a hustl-
ing ball club all the way." In ad-

are invited to join.

Wlien he turned the keys over
to President Baxter on January
6. 1939. Clark Williams expressed
the hope that the building would
be a place where faculty friend-
ships would be made and would
increase.

Contributed to Squash Courts

Although the faculty house is
the biggest single memorial to
Clark Williams, the donor had
ilso contributed to other projects
including the squash courts. How-
ever. Mr. Williams had always
been especially interested in aid-
ing the faculty and had often in-
vited faculty members to visit his
southern estate. It was in appreci-
ation for these things that some
of the faculty members presented
the donor with the tea and coffee
service which is now in tlie din-
ing room.

In the 13 years since the dedi-
cation tile building has indeed
lived up to the hopes of the donor
— that it would be a place where
the faculty would gather and
cement friendships.

Always a sucker for attractive bait, our aquatic

on the quick-trick cigarette hook! But he wormed
his way out when he suddenly realized that
cigarette mildness can't be tossed off reel lightly.
Millions of smokers have found, too, there's only
one true test of cigarette mildness.
It's the sensible lesl-the 30-Day Camel
Mildness Test, which simply asks you to try
Camels as your steady smoke on a day-after-day,
pack-after-pack basis. No snap judgments!
Once you've tried Camels for 30 days in your

Humorous writing is something
rare and special: it's easy to get
"just a wonderful idea! " — but it's
enormously difficult to execute this
idea. I'd guess that the editor of
a successful Cow would feel oblig-
ed to reject 90'; of his contribu-
tions, and then work like a dog
at revising and polishing the 109;
he considered usable. The former
Cow, dedicated to monthly appear-
ances, looked as though its editor
used all 100'''; of the contributions
without any serious re-workins;,
threw in a few items from back
issues, and finally dashed off a
bunch of fillers during a visit to
the printer.

The new Cow has been launched
with gre.'' gusto, but a cool eye
will immediately . th^t it is
distressingly uneven. In places it
shows signs of promise: but many
of its pages are gloomy reminders
of what caused its predecessor to
expire.

There are signs of hope in the

issue ha.s been rescued, tor ex-
ample, by the editorial policy of
including two serious articles: a

Argentina's Eva by Anson Piper:

torial on God and Man at Yale

more than a glimmer of hope in
the third item which is worth
reading: an engaging "Ballad"

Letters to the Editor

REORGANIZE UC

WE OTHER DAY

by R. Bruce Carrington

According to a report appearing
in the March 16th TIMES iSec, 1
p 23:1) Pravda is dissatisfied with
the Russian drama. I have
ahvays toUowed with great inter-
est the reports ot what Pravda is
and isn't satisfied with, and I
tliink it is rewarding, I remember
the wonderful report of a mpeting
held in some town assembly a
while back to denounce jazz. The
comrades were shouting each other
down and proclaiming that jazz
was as 'bourge" as they come,
when in came a jazz band playing
"Struttin' with Some Barbecue",
whereupon everyone leaped to his
booted feet and cheered Ru.ssianly.
The result was that until Pravda
really lowered its verbal boom,
peasants throughout those old So-
cialist Republics were digging po-
tatoes in syncopated time,

Pravda, however, won out that
time, and it looks as if it is plan-
ning another victory. It wa.s ciuot-
ed as calling playwrights ■un-
realistic", and spoke of the plays
as being full of "false negative
types of persons who needed clean-
ing in the clean water nf sharp
sat're." They denounced .slereo-
tvpes, and demanded that play-
wrights create fresh ncu- dramas
with fresh new Russia, In the
light of these suggestions. I would
submit to Pravda the following
short play for their consideration.
The scene takes place in the Wil-
liamstok Inflrmariski somewhere
in Russia:

I o tlu' Kilitor of the KECOHD:

The editorial in the March 19 edition ol the Uecord broiiKht
to the limelight one of the most basic problems now oii the Wil-
liams Colle.nc campus, namelv, tbe present system ol representa-
tion on the UiiderKiaduate Council, .\s of now, representation is
based primarily on social unit delenatioiis (president ol each
of the 15 houses, represi'iilatives of certain campus acti\'ities,
and class presidents), One-llfth of the student body, the non-
alliliates, have no \()ice in the Council,

Under die status <|uo at Williams t:olle}^e, non-allillate repre-
sentation is impossible, since the former members ol the (Jar-
field i:liib on I'cbruarv t expressed then' desire to remain no longer
as a social unit. Therefore, to acceiit ri'preseiitation (in a coiineil
composed of house presidents would be, in elleet, to i;i\c the tiar-
field Club a rebirth. There is one alteriiati\e, that is to choose
deleirates by classes.

We, die undersij^neil, recommend as a solution to this problem
that each class select four delegates as its represiitati\'es on tbe
VC. Under this .s)stein the ckiss prt'sidents, who are now iircsent
ill the Council, would retain their ])osts, and would be joined by

the \ ice-presidents of each class, the honor co ittee represeuta-

li\es, and a fourth delegate, .Also represented ou the Council woukl
be the leaders of die campus activities, who are now scrvui}!; on
the Council,

Naturally, this solution would only jjiove workable it class
elections received more enthusiastic siip|)ort from each member ol
the student body. Under our recoinmendation, with class elections
ineauinir more than merely popularity contests, the students, we
hope, would realize the importance of the elections, and would
select the most ciiialified meiiibers of their class,

.\ll class functions would be handled by the tour UC repre-
seiitati\es, and the present system of class orj^ani/ation by social
units would be abolished. The four elected ollicers would ha\e
the power to select other lueinbers of their class to aid them in
runniiiti; lunise parties and other class functions.

We also uri^e the acce|itaiice of the sugj^estion that "enlorce-
meut of house social rules" could be accomplished by "house
ollicers working under the Dean's office".

We oiler this as the most feasible solution to tbe present UC
))roblein.

THE WILLIAMS RECORD WEDNESDAY, MARCH 26, 1952

BY JOVE - I'll be blessfd if we dicUrt find ii touch of Jolly /)lld
England in oui- back yuid uiice ;iniiiii this pu.sl week-end.
Peiclied atop our vaiilane point on the fouith flooi' of the Hopkins
Obscivutoi-y. we were able to view the Koinus-on many miles below
at the SpriiiB Stieet squash courts with \hw greatest of ease, as
■•MasUT" Chaffee's racciuetmeii gave oui- visitoi's from Cambridge,
England a lather rough time uf it with a 5-1 trouncing on Satui-day
afternoon. Such was the throng that invaded the gallery that we
vi.fie forced to our lofty retieat.

I'eerlng through our BO-iiuh rcfriulinK telescope, we were able
to catch a bird's-eye view of oiu- of the most oxcitiiis matches of
the afternoon, between Captain Kuy (leorije and I'eter Gautler-
Smilh. I'layine i" the numlier three position, the Knglishman pres.sed
Georifc several times with terrific l)a('khand and corner shots, and was
able to take two of tlu- first tlnec eiimes. Upon a number of ota'asions,
we were nearly vaulted out of our crows ncsl rest by the tremendous
ovations rendered hy the spectators. The slender, dark-haired "Tom-
nij" came back again and again with drives on seemingly hopeless
shots to down the Williams captain. (iautier-Sniilh took the lead in
games twice, but in the fourth and fifth contests, he tired, and
George was able to take the final pair of games by handy margins.
i KfER the match had been completed, wc .swooped down fiom the
" Weathcrchild domicile to si)cak with a lew of the visitoi's from
uciDss the Atlantic , We were csijccially attracted to a lad named
Tony Swales, playing iiumbcr toui- for the Britishers. The good-looking,
well-built Englishman levealed the pleasant surpri.se which he had
expciienced on the tiii) to America thus far. "It's nothing quite at all
like what we had expected," came his griiming reply. "So far, we've
really had an exciting time. Aflei- landing here in the United States
on Thui-sday, we stopped at New Haven foi- our first match," con-
tinued Tony in his thick English brogue. "With time at a pitmium,
our visits at each college will be very short. Up to now everything
has been wonderful; everything, that is, except the scores of our
matches. We do hope to win one oi- two befoic wc head back home,
wc really do!"

Master Swales informed us of the very respectable 11-2 won-
lost record which his team had iiimpiled against competition in
England. "I'm afraid that our fortune from here on in will definitely
be much less impressive." he commented after they bad dropped their
sci'ond match in three days.

"In England, our courts are a cood three feet wider and perhaps
a foot or so longer than the American alleys. " Your roving reporter
(from the WEATIIEKCIIII.I) KN TEKI'KI.SESI also found that the
English squash hall was smaller and less lively than the American-
type ball. We were informed further of still another difference be-
tween the British and the American game. While we fill nine positions
in mat«'.h competition, the "Tommies" compcle with a roster of only
five.

IIAVING lost their mat<.'h with Yale, .six-zipp. the boys fiom Cam-
bridge made Williamstown their second stop. Dartmouth, Har-
vard. Princeton, plus ii number of top Canadian teams will keep the
Britishers quite busy for the remainder of their three week .iouiney
to America.

After the affair was all over, a spot of tea was definitely in order!

nals'? Or is it a satire? It lacks
focus as humor or criticism. And
as narrative it builds up to the
climax of an interview with Prof.
Copeland, and then abruptly stops,
I'lic reader feels bewildered, and
mildly cheated.

The feature called "Simpres-
iioiiism" f. lis flat on its face; a
Uale idea carried out with stale
Uustrations. The drawings spread
jver the magazine's center pages
are not made entertaining merely
by labelling them "Cowtoons."
They tend either to use frightfully
ancient gags las in the one about
storing bathtubs i or to be so poor-
ly drawn that their point— if any
—is lost las in the one depicting
a chapel interior). The page en-
titled "Blind Date" exhibits the
type of cartoon which was worked
to death in the old Cow; one
hopes that the new Cow can
escape from this rut into more
imaginative and more carefully
executed cartooning such a.s Bod
Stites' nice set of parodies called
"Blood Bank."

More Misses

"Love Among the Ruins," a poem
about the love affair of a garbage-
collector, . . . need I say more'.' The
subject is hilarious, simply hilar-
ious; therefore the poem treating
the subject will necessarily be a
booming success, say the editors,
who apparently never thought of
returning it to the authors for
much-needed cutting and revision,

Ihe photography section is a
new idea, and a good one. The por-

times. The t'ow's board will ha\e
to be equally rigorous if they ex-
pect their magazine to eliminate
Comment or even if they hope to
save it from the fate of its pre-
decessor.

Since the undergraduates will
probably respond more enthusias-
tically to the new Cow than I do.
I am not worried about any ill
effects which this sour review may
have on sales. Let me close by
wisliing the new Cow well. Its edi-
tors liave opened the magazine
with a desperate plea for contri-
butions; they clearly need help. I
hope Williams students will res-
pond with vigor and that future
i.ssues will make this one look
iick even in their eyes.

To Highlight Schedule

Of Island Vacation

Charles Elliott '54

Friday. March 28 — Under the
wulchful eye of the Travel Bureau,
vh'hl students will forsake muddy
Williamstown tomorrow tor the
beautiful beaches of balmy Bermu-
da. Ably chaiwroned by Mac Mc-
Connick '52, the ki'oup will take
oir via Pan-American provided all
pass customs, and will return Ap-
ril 8.

The island has prepared for the
invasion by scheduling two Col-
IcKc Weeks, featuriuK beach and
coiktail parties, trips around the
island, tennis and nolf tourna-
ments, and a formal dance. Girls
from Bradford, Wells, Vassar, and
Holyoke ought to provide suitable
entertainment for the Williams
regiment.

riaces of Interest

Main center of attraction in the
Clown colony, accoi'dlng to a vct-
eran. lies in and ai-ound the Elbow
Beach Surf Club with its accom-
modations for dancing, diinking.
and swimming .Collectivism has re-
placed individualism in that
gioups of females from each school
give open house cocktail parties
in the afternoons.

Othei- activities which visitors
have found worthwhile include vi-
.slts to famous Crystal Caves, com-
plete with stalactites and stalag-
mites, and to Devil's Hole, whei'e
exotic fish abound.

In addition to its distinction as
the oldest .self-governing British
colony. Bermuda is noted for its
ultra-low price of alcohol.

To Achieve Total
Membership Goal

Recent "Bicker" Period

Reverses Two Year

Rushing Standard

Princeton, N. J., March 25 —
Total rushing of sophomores at
Piinceton appears to have receiv-
ed a setback as the trend toward
complete membership in the Pros-
pect Sti'eet clubs begun by the
present senioi- class and continued
last year by the cla.ss of '53, .seems
to have been reversed for the time
being.

Two years ago, the class of '5L!
petitioned the eating clubs to take
all or none, and succeeded in forc-
ing through 100'.; memtaer.ship.
Last year's "bicker", or rushing
period, was hailed by Princeton
Dean Francis Godolphin as ach-
ieving this .same goal "without
tension". This time, in the "bick-
I er" period starting February 7. the
728 sophs failed, despite agitation
by campus leadei-s to bring about
total membership.

Financial Trouble
1 Some of the clubs fell it neces-
sary to take in large delegations
I to meet rising food costs. At pre-
I sent, weekly board bills in the
I clubs avei'age over $18. Moreover,
I it is feared that under the present
I system one or two of the seven -
I teen clubs may become "dumping
I grounds" for unwanted Tiger
j sophs.

I That the Court Club was able
j to take in only seven new mem-
I bers this year, suggests the possi-
: bility that several of the less pop-
I ular clubs may be forced out of
I existence by rising costs and dwin-
' dling enrollments.

Monday, March 24 — Workmen
of the Kullahur Brothers Con-
struction Company, Sai'ris Falls,
Mass., started preparations today
for resurfacing of Route 43, which
connects South Williamstown with
Hancock, New York Route 22, and
points south.

The prcicct is being financed by
the state under a secondary feder-
al grant-in-aid. and will entail a
cost of $325,000. State plans call
for the complete replacement of
the present two-lane, trap rock-
and-tar surfaced road with a new
macadam .surface.

Engineers will lay the founda-
tion of the new road slightly to
the south of its former location,
and have designed the new high-
way to allow for wider shoulders,
moderation of the steeper grades,
and smoother curves. Under fed-
eral regulations, no curve of the
artery will have less than a 1000
foot radius.

Sunday. Mai'ch 23 — Continuing
Williamstown's crime wave, two
burglai's broke into the College
Pharmacy tonight and stole $25
in cash and an undetermined a-
mount of merchandise. Police are
still baffled as to the identity of
the culprits.

Accoiding to proprietor Joseph
(Uea.son. the intruders came
thiough the back window and
climbed down the shelves at the
rear of the store, using a step
ladder. The bui'glars made then-
exit through the back door, which
had been locked from the outside.

The only available clue found
thus far consists of two bottle
openers, left by the burglars.
These were found in the back of-
fice of tlie store, along with an
empty quart bottle of beer, two
m.ugs, and a saltcellar, all belong-
ing to the pharmacy, and indicat-
ing that the thieves were in no
hurry. Gleason commented that he
would be glad to return the open-
ers to their owners on request.

Thursday. March 20— The Wil-

nei at the 1896 House as the first
in a scries of functions in which
the club and local shooting en-
thusiasts will .ioln interests. Club
President Ted Cart '53 headed the
planning foi' the dinner, tlie chief
attraction of which was the serv-
ing of bear and coon meal ob-
tained by various membei's of the
community this fall.

"Whip" PeriT. who w-as in
charge of obtaining the food
brought out thirty pounds of bear
meat and three coons for the
twenty-two people to en.ioy. It was
the first time that many of the
guests had tasted such rustic del-
icacies. The Gun Club held .shoots
every Sunday afternoon of the fall
in Thanatopsis Glen to which peo-
ple of the community were invited,
and next year a closer joint re-
lationship Is planned.

orchestra, featuring vocalists Mary
Scott and Hal Jones. The Junior
Class housepai'ty committee has
also scheduled the annual class
picnics and a tentative jazz con-
cert.

Bradley, who has been a band-
leader most of his life, with the
exception of a brief intei-lude dur-
ing the war, has been featured
with his group all over the coun-
try. Since la.st May, he has played
in the East for many college
dances,

Danceable Music

Bradley is a firm believer that
peo|)le who come to dances should
get dance music instead of novelty
tunes and progressive tempos.
Therefore he specializes in melodic
and danceable music.

Ted Cart '53, who heads the
dance committee, plans to have
Trahen's, a New York firm take
care of the decorations in the
gymnasium. No definite plans for
the decorations have been decided
as yet.

classes will have their picnic Sat-

the juniors and seniors will have
their picnic, complete with beer
relays and a soft ball game, but
omitting the tug-ot-war. Picnic

rier Hall kitchen.

According to Don Rand '53. in
chaige of the musical activities of

ter Carnival jam .session.

Non-affiliates Should Elect

In the Mait'h 19 i.s.siic of the Rl'XiOIUJ, uticiitioii was called

diat tin's not eiitirelv true and that certain ]-)oiiits show diat iion-

than their refii.sal to remain on the outside of student noxeriiinent.
It is true that the uKijoritv of the \'otint; inemhers of the UC
are frateruitv representatives, but it is also true that 2o't of the
votini; members represent either classes or certain caiii|)iis activi-
ties. The addition of 4 non-fraternitv ineinhers would increase
this figure to 3;> I/;3!? so it would be e\en more a UC and not an
intertraternitv council. The simple mecli;iiiieal details of the laii^c
uiajoritv of council business would be i;rcallv facilitated if llic
non-alfiliates were re|5reseiitcd. The i^rcat iiuiss ol work done In
the UC consists larjrelv of coniuumicatini; material from campus
orfjani/.ations such as the Placement IJureau to die college iiiulci-
graduate body. If anytliiu!; \ital to the li\es of underf^raduales
comes before the council, the UC members usually refer the
material tpiestion back to a student referendum. To accom]5!ish
these two functions the UC) niust be set up so that its members can
fjet in touch with dieir eoustitucuts easilv. The loj^ical way to do
this is bv elcetinj^ representatives from all the various diniiifr cen-
ters on eaini)us. If central catinir were in effect then a coniplele
re\aini)iiiu of the (jrcsent method of selectiuf; UC members could
be undertaken.

The non-affiliates will be able to further their cause betlcr
from within the council than from without. For e.vaniple when the
college now wishes the opinioi, of the non-fraternity men on such
imi)ortaut issues as recommendations for die new student uiiiuii,
the administration has no where to turn. In the case of the all-
college Bowdoin plan tax, llie non-affiliates will bo made to ])ay
their share although diex- have no \oice in die decision to levy
this assessment. The non-:iffiliates are willina; to s^iNc up a voice
in the running of their iiw n affairs to gain solidarity behind tlieir
move for complete mcinhcrship. We feel, however, that the non-
affiliates can still work toward this objective as members of the UC;
The uon-affiliates will be belter off helpin<» to make decisions that
affect die entire undergraduate body rather dian letting such de-
cisions be made by men who may not hold the same opinions at
all. By becominu; affiliated with the Uudernradiiate Council, the

TURN THE CRANK

III die lulilor ol the BKCOBD:

Belemng to Peter Cosgrills fine letter of die March 22 edi-
tion ol the hecord, 1 cant help but feel that he made one major
error. In geiu'ral i agree with his \iews, but that iinst sentence,
"The student boti)' ol Williams slioukl be justly alaruieil at the
encioaelnneut ol the adiiiinislratioii upon undcrgraelnate lights ',
was i|uite a shock. Just what arc these "niidergraduate rights' we
hear about so often? Arc the)- not mere illusions of sell-goveni-
meiit, representing a rather feeble attempt by the admiuistration
to bring np their youthful, shiny-faced boys in a spirit of democ-
racy where an authoritarian lack of leadership prevails? How can
ail)- one student, or even all students, lay any claims to specific,
inherent rights of self-go\eniiuent or even personal integrity'r'

Our rights are just the limitations, or lack of limitations, the
adniiuistratiou gi\es us to assure that we grow up in onr educa-
tional .system widi just enough delnsioi'i of independence to
assure that our natural, youdilnl tenileucies for expression and
independence will be smoothed (i\er; and the administration can't
help but leel thai our personal integrity is only in reality a grow-
ing ego which must be conti'olled.

Vou see, we have no "rights ', no morality of our own - Uie
adiniiiistratiou takes care of that. .\s students we study our texts,
go to our lectures, take our faclnal, memory e.xams which don't
test understanding but rather our ability to retain factual doe-
trine.

And the adiniuistrahon grants iis a few house parties, an
undergradnate council, and there is our college. We haven't an
institution but a machine with a weU-known iiame. The admiui-'
stiatiou turns the crank and oiil comes the finished product, coiii-
plete widi facts, a delusion of iiideiiendencc, and name attached.
That is the \Villi:ims graduate, and the adiniiiistratiou, being
proud that its name has been allixed to another product, eontiiines
to turn the crank, set the rules, and adjust the morality in such a
way diat no graduate will enrl up too iii(lependcnt of what the
college eonsiilers die norm.

In conclusion, it seems to me that the admuiistration assumes
teaching is more imiiortant than learning, directing the student
more important than self-development, control more iin]K)rtant
diaii independence and integrity. The college can't project their
maturity onto us - we must find it for ourselves. Control never
de\eloi)es integrity, but nioro olleii fanaticism, and yet the admin-
istration, led by the sui)eilati\c |)ressures of our backwood trustees
and alimini, can't seem to see this.

,\iid so we can expect more restraint, less independ(;iice, and
consequently more artificiality and hypocrisy in social life. The
words "undergraduate rights" are meaningless.

Return to Mound Duty

by Pete Goldman '54

Monday, March 24 — "We won't
be world beaters, but we'll have a
pii-lly fair ball club." This was
Coach Bobby Coombs' appraisal
of 1952 Williams baseball pros-
pects as he watched his batlery-
meii BoiiiB through their paces in
the; cage today.

The former major league hurler,
now in his seventh year at the
helm of the Eph nine, was quick
to ({iiallfy his statement. "Pikh-
ini; is SO't' of the college game",
he added, "and a lot depends on
how our stall shapes up. However,
we liave a veteran nucleus to build
around and a bunch of good look-
ing, sophomores coming up."
Puffer, Beard Return

The returnees Coombs referred
to include the brilliant pitching
duo of last year's Little Three
chumps, Mike Puller and John
Board. Puller, a right bander, won
five games for the Ei)hs last sea-
.son, including a near no-hittcr
against Harvard in the finale,
wliile southpaw Beard notched
four victories.

Although Howie Babcock and
Henry Norwood are the only other
retuining moundsmen. Coombs has
added nine sophomores to his stall,
including Rog Moody. Dewey Rey-
nold.s, and Paul Murphy. Moody
was the number one starter for
last year's freshman nine.

Wednesday, March 26 — Delta
Kappa Epsilon gained a victory in
the final event, the 200 yd. relay,
to defeat second place Zeta Psi
34-21 and capture the Interfra-
ternity Swimming Meet. Delta Up-
silon placed third scoring 17)5
points, only a point and one-half
in front of fourth scoring Kappa
Alpha.

A narrow victory in the 100 yard
breaststroke by John Allan gave
the Zetes a 21-16 edge over the
Deke's with only the closing event
to be run off. Forced to grab eith-
er first or second in the relay, the
DKE's nosed out second place
Kappa Alpha for eight points and

the meet.

Parker Murray, Kappa Alpha,
was the only swimmer to place
first in two events. Murray scored
his 10 points in the 50 and 100

afternoon well by taking a first in
the opening 150 yard medley re-
Icy. Don Wyman added five points
to the DKE score in the 200 yard
freestyle. Murray's double victory
surrounded Boyd Pall's win in the

AMEItlCA'B LIADINO MANUFACTURER OF CIQARITTKS

HEADLINER

by Kay KoUisian, Jr.

ITH the lapld approach of spring to Willlamstown and en-
virons the winter sports seasons fade into the past, and must
be content to rest in the record books for the remainder of their
existence. It was a winter of ups and downs, with memories both
good and bad.

Fresh in our minds is the amazing performance of Bob Muir's
.swimmers. Dick Martin, one of the mosi outstanding swimmers in
the history of the school, although severely handicapped by illness,
came through with twin wins in the New Englands. Over the course
of the year, however, it was a team performance which brought
both the Little Three Title and the New England Championship

With the return of Dick Squires (u eligibility. Coach Chaffee
was able to guide his relatively inexprrienced squash squad to
decisive victories over both Wesleyan and Amherst, taking his sixth
Little Three Crown in a decade of coaching,

Skiing — great! In his second year at Williams, Coach Ralph
Townsend not only brought us the Class B title for the second con-
secutive year, but also gave Williams a Class A rating for 1953.
AN ENTHUSIASTIC, never-say-die winter track team, under
the tutelage of Tony Plansky, went all out in its quest for
victories. Led by Captain George Steinbrenner, the trackmen turned
in a superb showing in both small college and "big time" competition.

A thumping win over Amherst for the Purple wrestlers provided
sweet consolation after an otherwise unsuccessful season. In the New
Englands. individual crowns were captured by Callaghan, Edwards,
and Shorb, giving Williams a surprising second place.

Coach Al Shaw, faced with the loss of four-fifths of his great
1950-51 basketb::ll team, had to rebuild around a nucleus of inex-
perienced sophomores. Only with a sensational showing at the Pratt
Gym were the Lord Jeffs able to take the "Potted Ivy League" Champ-
ionship.

piNALLY. we come to the bottom of the ladder — and we all
know what's there. Yes, hockey! Tacked on to an otherwise
good winter showing, the hockey season stands out worse than the
Ijroverbial sore thumb. Winning but one or two games a season is not
fun. And when the losses come by 12. 15. and 20 goal margins, just how
long can spirit and desire to play last'.' How much longer must Wil-
liams hockey squads face teams which obviously outclass them?
How long will a bunch of hard-working, earnest guys who play for
the love of the sport, be subjected to the miseries of inadequate faci-
lities, conditions, and coaching. A cliange must be made, and made
soon, if hockey is to remain a major sport here at Williams. A change
must be made if tlie college continues to offer organized hockey
as an attraction to men entering Williams.

This problem is one which has been hashed over, and re-hashed;
it's been run through the pages of the RECORD many times. And if
you don't believe what we say, just ask any one active on the hockey
squad. Eirly morning trips to Troy, poor home conditions, unorgan-
ized practice sessions — the status quo will have to gol

As we see it, and we would nut be alone in this matter, institu-
ting an informal hockey jjrogram would provide the most suitable
means to alleviate the situation until further improvements can be
effected.

ELL. we started out with a glimpse back at a winter season
which in many respects is one to be proud of: but that "sore
thumb" keeps popping up. getting sorer and sorer.

VVirkrd Williams

Summarizing the content of her
letters in her lavishly furnished
room, Lucy remai'ked that "only
Williams men seem to possess a
sense of humor imwarped by con-
ceit. From their letters I charac-
terize the average Williams man
as a real nice guy decked in
striped ties and gray flannels.
Their letters however, suggest that
they might be rather frustrated,
and that Williamstown is quite a
wicked place. I'd rank them sec-
ond in sex appeal only to the
Princetonians."

Although "L" day was still a few
days ofl' 'March 27 1 the Berk-
shire County Miss 'Great Har-
rington I had hopes for many more
letters: preferably in the good-
humored, gray-flanneled, sexy,
Williams style.

dialogue. What we have here is
not the language of real life — but
a rather specialized idiom whlcn
bogs down in some over-length
fii'st act utterances.

Weems, Dewey Add Humor

Theodore Weems' characteriza-
tion of the grotesquely pompous
Dr. Genoni is faithfully conceived
and does much to lighten the bui-
den of Pirandello's heavy-handed
intellectuality. Similarly effective
is Joseph Dewey as Belcredi, the
sceptic and humorist. Together
with Sally Long, who is most con-
vincing as Donna Matilda, the
thiee of them try to tear from
Henry the mask which he has
worn so long and bring him back
again into their life which is void
of "the pleasure of history."

These three are most effective
in tlieir scenes with Heiuy where
they are nuide to feel the incon-
gruity of their situation: less so
in the moments where they appear
alone and are forced to stand
or fall on the expository worth
of their dialogue. Weems' por-
trayal of the nervous little doctor
who is filled with so many ridi-
culous notions of his own impor-
tance does mucli to relieve the
monotony of these scenes. This is
insufficient, however, to build
these interludes in anticipation of
Henry's entrances, and they serve
merely as a series of rather tedious
expository vignettes.

Except for the extremely awk-
v't.rd final scene where Henry
clumsily runs through Belcredi
v.'ho is held like a sitting target,
the production is technically
jound. The costtunes and sets are
superb while the lighting is re-
sourceful and original.

MacManus, Rand Lead
Vacation Trip Scoring

By Gerry Davis

Saturday. April 12 — Hopes for
a successful season are high in
the minds of the Purple golfers
who recently returned from the
annual southern trip. Meeting
tome of the southland's outstand-
ing linksmen without the benefit
of any winter practice, the Eph-
men were unable to win any of
their three matches, but gained
experience on the trip which
should prove a valuable asset a-
gainst northern opposition during
the regular season.

After spending three days In
the vicinity of Southern Pines,
North Carolina where they played
their first rounds of golf since
last fall, the Williams team moved
1,0 Durham on Thursday, April 3.
meeting Duke University. Playing
at the Hope Valley course, the Eph
men fared poorly with Frank Mac-
Manus' 71 the outstanding roimd
m a 24-0 loss under the Nassau
system of scoring.

Rand Low Scorer

Chapel Hill and a match with
North Carolina was the next stop
on the Purple itinerary. Morgan
Coleman was the only man able
to break the scoring ice as the
Tarheels triumphed 35-1. Jim
Tompkins, playing in the number
three slot came through with a
fine round, but could not match
his opponent's sub-par 68.

The final and most successful
contest from the Purple viewpoint
look place Saturday at Charlottes-
ville against the Virginia Cavaliers.
Scoring under the customary New
England three points-per-four-
some plan, the Ephmen forced the
Cavaliers to go all out before the
home team was able to gain a 6-3
victoi-y. Don Rand's 76 was the
low Williams score, with Rand,
playing number five. Moro at
number four and Kaufman, num-
ber six accounting for the three
Purple victories.

Gain Needed Experience
On Southern Journey

Tuesday, April 8 — Ralph Town-
send's lacrosse eleven returned
from their spring vacation .south-
ern swing today with a 17-5
tjouncing of North Carolina and a
wealth of badly-needed game ex- 1
perience to their credit. The ex-
i;erience was f.cquired the hard
way. as the Ephmen absorbed
.'ihellackings from Army i20-l>,
Maryland il0-2i. and Virginia
123-31 in th* trip's other three
outings.

rhe Southward excursion was
not the dismal failure which the
iatler three debacles would seem
to indie, te, however, for the Pur-
ple were playing out of their class
with practically no previous prac-
tice, while their opponents had
been working out for belter than
a month.

Van Dusen Nets Six

Bruce Van Dusen led the April
2 triumph over North Carolina
with six goals and four assists.
Ted Johnson scored four times
for the Ephs. and Ted Mitchell
chipped in with two more goals
ind five assists.

For the only time during the trip
the offense was able to function
.smoothly, and the defense, bolster-
ed by the steady net-tending of
goalie Rod Starke, was consistent-
ly strong.

Army Rolls Over Ephs

Army completely overwhelmed
the Ephmen in the trip's opener
by tallying ten goals in the first
period. Sophomore Al Klssack con-
verted on a pass from Dave White-
ford for Williams' only goal in the
20-1 rout.

Townsend's crew had no better
luck in their first tussle south of
the Mason-Dixon line against
powerful Maryland, as the Terps
won hf.ndily. 10-2. Van Dusen and
Bob Utiger scored for the Ephs.

The Virginia combine scored at
will against the Purple, running
the final count to 23-3.

Wednesday, April 9— With the
season's opener against Union one
week off the Williams baseball
Learn is beginning to take form.
Coach Bobby Coombs stated, "We
got ill tv.o days of outdoor prac-
tice during vacation and have a
lot of hard work behind us."

Although the starting lineup is
only tenlatlve and competition is
still wide open for several posi-
iloiis, ilie battery seems to be set
with last year's starters. Mike Puf-
fer and Johnny Beard, back on the
hill and Bob DePopolo once again
behind the plate. Puffer had a 5-3
record last year while Beard won
four and was not defeated.
Junior Moundsmen

Howie Babcock will be the third
in a strong trio of Junior mounds-
men With Hank Norwood. Dewey
lieynolds. and Kog Moody behind
hiin. Norwood is a Junior and the
l..iu'r two are Sophomores.

Al first base Pete Callahan and
Owen Maher are running neck
and neck while another close race
exists ai shortstop between Jack
Hawkins and Chuck Harris. Cap-
lain Bill Callaghan is a fixture at
ihe keystone sack witii Dick Sul-
li\an performing well behind him.
and Walt Creer appears to have
the edge at third.

Connolly Returns

Rightfielder Pete Connolly will
be back at his old spot, but the
other outfield berths are being
hotly contested by a trio of fast,
sure fielders. Tommy Dorsey. Tom
Adkins, a cnnvei'ted catcher along
with Creer, and Bill Miller.
Coombs commented that these
three would make up a fine de-
fensive outfield, but they lack hit-
ting power.

The battiiif; order has not been
set as yet l)iil the nucleus of a
haid-hlttin,^ ball club exists in the
returning regulars. Callaghan hit
.411 last year. Connolly rapped at
a .393 clip, and DePopolo hit .333.
They will be aided by Creer, Haw-
kins, and Maher. the leading hit-
ters on last season's frosh team.

McCarthy Speaks
At Smith on Reds

Stirs Crowd Emotionally
In Generalized Speech

Northampton. April 10— Joseph
McCarthy, Republican Senator
from Wisconsin, addressed a
crowd of 2300 listeners tonight at
Jolm M Cireeiie Hall, Smitli Col-
lege. His speecli. sponsored by the
Smith Young Republican's Club,
was entitled "Reds in the Govern-
ment."

The senator stated that he has
often been accused of taking ad-
vantage of his congressional im-
munity. He declared, however, that
now he was outside of the senator-
ial chamber and would definitely
nante Communists m our govern-
ment.

McCarlliy declared that Owen
Lattimore and Lawrence "liad a
great affinity for Communist pol-
icy." and that "Phillip Jessup was
the second most dangerous man
in our government." second only
to Dean Acheson.

Emotional Presentation

Although these charges implied
subversive activities, McCarthy
never openly said that any of
Uiese men. some of whom he had
accused in the Senate, were Com-
munists.

McCarthy delivered his speech
in an emotional manner, pound
ing on the podium at times and
continucUy interspersed his talk
iv.ui renmrKs about his war record

ni one point, in response to a
n.ss iruiii ine audience, McCarthy
commented drily. "Hiss — that word
oounds familiar."

jjuiiiig me course of the speccli
about a liaif dozen people walked
out oi the aiidilorium. Their exit
was accompanied by scattered au
uiCnce approval.

i-ouowing the speech, questions
were screened and presented to
iUcCarihy. Queried whether college
le.xhers should be required to take
loyalty oaths, the senator replied,
■oenalors have to take them and
I worked hard to take mine. I see
no reason why American mothers
and fathers should hire Comma
nists to teach their sons and
diUighters treason."

Student Group Seeks Liberal Candidate,
Boosts Douglas for Democratic Nomination

Saturday. April 12 — A group of
students, believing that "a liberal
candidate for president is need-
ed by the Democratic Paity in this
time of world crisis." has formed
a "William O. Douglas for Presi-
dent Club."

The organization is hr;ided by
Peter Oaks '52. while the other
officers are Arnold Levin ',^2, vice-
president. Matthew Markotic '52.
secretary, Robert Goldstein '54.
treasurer, and Peter Goldman '54.
recording secretary.

Take Russia Seriously

William Douglas, an associate
justice on the Supreme Court, has
declared that the only way to ac-
hieve pe.,ce in these crucial times
Is to take Russian offers for peace
seriously. In the UN at present
both the United States and the
Soviet Union continually call each
others' proposals for disarmament
farcical.

Douglas believes that coopera-
tion Is the only .solution to the
present pioblem. and that "arma-
ment for peace" can never be a
reality. The justice, however, does

not feel that NATO should be a-
bandoned. but that while we are
preparing ourselves for an em(!r-
gency. we should also attempt to
solve the dilemma of the cold war.
The Club feels that Douglass
pioposal must be endorsed.
For Civil Rights

It was Justice Douglas that gave
the minority decision on the Fein-
berg law. stating that it was a vio-
lation of civil rights to force the
teachers of New York State to
declare that they had never been
members of "a subversive oi'gan-
ization", especially when these or-
ganizations have never been list-
ed or defined.

Douglas has also opposed ilie
Smith and McCarran Acts for roa-
.sons similar to those mentioned
above. The justice has consistanl-
ly been the most liberal member
of the Court, while at the same
time has been, the members of the
"Douglas for F>residcnt Club" feel.
the most lealistic man in the gov-
ernment in the formulation of
ioreign policy.

Staff Hails New "Cow^^ as Success;
Readers Call Revival "Best Eve/^

May Copy to Contain
Feature by Watters

by Bill Warden '54

Wednesday, April 16 — The flr.st
issue of the new "Purple Cow",
wliich went on sale on March 26,
lias been ajudged a complete suc-
rcss by the "Cow" staff. Feeling
they have successfully passed this
first critical test in the rebirth
■■>! college humor, the staff is or-
ganizing a second issue to appear
in May.

Approximately one third of tlii
student body bought the maga-
zine cither on the newsstand or
llirough .subscriptions. It is esti-
mated that at least 90 per cent
of the students have read it.
Favorable Letters Received

The staff of the "Cow", pleased
with the excellent reception their

work received among students and
faculty, were further lauded by
many letters from parents and
alumni. Several mentioned the
issue as the "best 'Cow' they had
yet seen."

The rebirth of the "Purple Cow"
under new management indicates
a significant trend in many east-
em colleges. The dirtii of college
humor in the past few years is
being remedied by the return of
a number of Hi!frnor magazines.
As in the "Purple Cow", most of
these periodicals include both tlie
humorous and the .serious aspects
of campus life.

May Issue

The general organization of the
May issue will be much the same
as the last. Special features will
include a humorous story on tlie
life of a coach by Len Watters.
and a surpri.se feature.

er Marty Lamphalr. Music for this

ners of the raffle, proceeds of
which also went to the Fireman's
Benevolent Fund, were announc-
ed. The Grand Prize was a $100
Savings Bond. Seventy-five sub-
sidiary prizes, all donated by mer-

ADA Holds Panel
On '52 Campaign

Party Chairmen, Students
Discuss Men, Issues

Monday. April 14 — The Ameri-
cans for Democratic Action held
a forum this evening in Griffin
Hall, dl.scusslng the potential can-
didates and policies of both the
Democratic and Republican Par-
ties.

Representing the Republican
point of view were Mr. Robert
Debevolse, chairman of the Wil-
liamstown Republican Committee,
and Richard Duffleld '52. Asso-
ciate Professor James Burns,
chairman of Williamstown's Dem-
ocratic Committee, and N. Arnold
Levin '52 presented the Democra-
tic opinions.

Campaign of Individuals

Debevolse and Duffleld stres.sed
the point that the election would
be decided on the basis of Indi-
vidual candidates, rather than
the party. Professor Bums and
Levin later expressed themselves
for a campaign based on policies.

While the Republican Chair-
man criticized the incumbnnt
Democrats as "too partisan and
political minded". Duffleld, said
that "new blood and new faces
are needed in Washington". He
suggested that General Eisenhow-
er would piovlde a change, but not
a reaction.

Professor Bums stated that the
last two decades had .seen two
political trends, one toward gov-
ernment action for the people,
and the other away from Isolatlon-
l.sm.

SAC to Determine
1952 ■ 53 Tax

Aid Request Deadline
Set for oril 28

Monday, April 14 — At a brief
meeting today the Student Activi-
ties Council discussed the ur-
gency of all campus organizations
in need of grants or loans for the
next school year to turn in their
estimated budget by April 28.

It was pointed out that the pro-
cedure for granting financial aid
necessitates a long period of time
because each request must be in-
vestigated by the executive com-
mitte of the SAC and then be vo-
ted upon by the entire organiza-
tion.

Attempt to Cut Tax

The expen.ses of non-profit cam-
pus organizations are supported by
a tax placed on the student body
through tire social units at the be-
ginning of cacli school year. Last
fall the tax was $1.50. and Bob
French '53. president of the SAC.
said that he hopes the new tax
will not be as high.

Other business that appeared
before the meeting dlscIo.sed that
the Purple KniRhts. college dance
orchestra, had withdrawn $48
from It's sinking fund.

UC Votes to Lift
VpperclassQttotas

Committee Books Change
In Off-Weekend Curfew

Eisenhower Body
Proves Strongest

Taft Backers Pessimistic
On Eve of Primaries

Monday. April 14— The UC vo-
ted tonight to accept the recom-
mendations of the 1951-52 Under-
graduate Council to II lift all
quotas before the coming post
season rushing period, and 2)
eliminate the rule that no juniors
or .seniors may be rushed.

Tliese recommendations, accept-
ed recently by the Tippy Com-
mittee, will be put into effect if
approved by President Baxter. A
third recommendation, that each
house's quota for the freshman
rushing next fall be one-fourteen-
th of the class, was tabled by the
Tippy Committee until the April
28 meeting with the UC in New
York.

Barks Curfew Extension

The Committee supported un-
animously a proposal to request
an extension of the off-weekend
curfew hours. It was decided that
2 a.m. would be the best hours for
both Friday and Saturday nights
of non-party weelcends.

Believing that a vote this spring
would do more harm than good,
the UC rejected the suggestion
of the League of Total Member-
ship that a vote be taken on an-
other complete rushing plan. The
Committee felt that the student
body would be apathetic toward
such a vote right now and that it
should be postponed until next
fall.

The UC decided that the setup
of the Bowdoln Plan should re-
main e.s.sentlally unchanged and
that the quota should again be
.set at six.
