'The story of Cornell is a fascinating one and wonder-fully told Any Cornellian would cherish this book/'

[^ By Morris Bishop ' 14Professor Emeritus

of Romance Literature

A HISTORY OF CORNELLHere is the exciting and inspiring story of Cornell. . . the

struggles of the young university.. the indomitable men of its

beginning... the doubtful years and later growth ..the failures

and successes of its men and ideas. All are chronicled with

insight and affection in a volume that belongs in the home of

every Cornellian.

Under the skilled hand ofMorris Bishop, a century ofCornell fact and legend springs tolife in the dramatic narration ofA HISTORY OF CORNELL.

You'll meet Cornell's vigorous founderand its far-sighted first president, and seetheir imprint on the unique character of theearly university (which was radical in manydetails) . . . read about the idiosyncrasies ofeccentric faculty members, the first build-ings (some, like self-made telegraph mag-nate Ezra Cornell, "grim, gray, sturdy, andeconomical"), student pranks and accom-plishments over the decades, little-knownanecdotes about Cornell and Ithaca, andcampus legends not quite proven by fact.

Just a few of the memorable characters inthese 663 pages are Louis Fuertes, thebeloved naturalist; his student, Hugh Troy,who once borrowed Fuertes' rhinoceros-footwastebasket for illicit if hilarious purposesthe more noteworthy and the more colorfulamong the faculty in succeeding eras; andof course Napoleon, the campus dog whose

talent for hailing streetcars brought himhome safely — and alone — from the Penngame in Philadelphia.

Accounts of the later growth of the uni-versity; the dramatic Great Will Case thatreached the U. S. Supreme Court; the teach-ing of education and other "new" courses;

the expansion of the State College of Agri-culture; creation of the Medical College;diversification of Big Red athletics — allestablish Cornell's wider significance as a"case history" in the development of highereducation . . . and make engrossing reading.

Morris Bishop sets it all down with per-ception, devotion, and all-pervading wit—attimes kindly, at times caustic, always illum-inating. A HISTORY OF CORNELL will beread and referred to time and again as atreasured volume in your permanent library.

ChemistryandPoetry

• Those who are concerned with the growing imbal-ance between the level of financial support given thesciences and that received by the humanities mightwell go to the aid of Representative William S. Moor-head, Democrat, of Pennsylvania. Next January, theCongressman says, he will again introduce his bill toestablish a national foundation for the humanities, anindependent arm of Government, similar to the Na-tional Science Foundation.

"Science is bringing greater and greater leisure toAmerica," says Mr. Moorhead. "When men andwomen find nothing within themselves, they turn totrivials and the society to which they belong quicklybecomes socially delinquent and potentially unstable."

Presumably, since that argument doesn't promise acontribution to arms, space, or GNP, the Congress willignore him again. But heavier ammunition is available.Example: this from a speech by Lammot du PontCopeland, president of E. I. du Pont de Nemours &Company, before the University of Delaware Human-ities Center Seminar:

"You might say, with a good deal of accuracy,that the physical scientists have been raising exceed-ingly knotty questions, and dumping them into thelaps of the social scientists and the humanitarians.

"The problems that threaten to overwhelm ourcivilization, the problems that have got to be dealt

with if we are to survive as human beings, let aloneas civilized human beings, do not lie in the field oftechnology, of the physical sciences. This is true eventhough their roots may run deep into technical soil."

Alexis Lawrence Romanoff '25, professor emeritusof chemical embryology, was by turns an artist, an en-gineer, and a soldier in his native Russia. He was thirtywhen he came to Ithaca, knowing scarcely a word ofEnglish, and he went on to become one of Cornell'sgreat scientists. In late years the professor has turnedto writing poetry—"it helps my English"-—and now hehas published, as a postcard, a poem on the Centennial.Professor Romanoff is an enthusiastic Cornellian, anda charming and persuasive man the NEWS rule againstpoetry is suspended—briefly:

Mrs. Farrand: she had a simply wonderful idea to discuss

" Cornell Alumni News

Psycho-analyst Vosberg—1921

HOAXArchitect Stotz—1964

BY CHARLES M. STOTZ '21

• A hoax is defined as "a deception formockery or mischief." This hoax was de-signed solely for mischief. However suc-cessful as a hoax, it did accomplish thepurpose of the prime conspirator, thelate Mrs. Livingston Farrand, "to en-liven the campus." Some may think thisan extraordinary project for the wife ofCornell's fourth president, less than threeweeks after his inauguration. But she wasan extraordinary woman, whom MorrisBishop describes in his book, A Historyof Cornell as "a great and vivid personwho imposed upon the community herrobust vigor, humor and charm." Herrole in the episode is here recorded forthe first time as, at her request, I didnot involve her in the account that ap-peared in the Cornell Era of January,1922.

As the hoax appeared to the campus,the facts are these. On Saturday, De-cember 3, 1921, the Cornell Women's

The author of this article, Charles M. Stotz,FΛ.I.A., is senior partner of Stotz, Hess &MacLachlan, architects, Pittsburgh, Penn-sylvania, and president of the Cornell Alum-ni Association.

Cosmopolitan Club held an Interna-tional Carnival in Risley Hall. TheCornell Daily Sun announced that thechief feature would be a lecture by ayoung Viennese psycho-analyst andpupil of Freud, named Dr. Herman Vos-berg, who would speak on The FreudianTheory as modified by his book Dreamsand the Calculus. This article quotedProfessor Harry Weld of the Cornell de-partment of psychology, of course of theinner circle, as saying, "Vosberg has withthis work clarified the hitherto compli-cated dream mechanism." Some objec-tions were raised to bringing a Germansavant to the campus only three yearsafter the war, but many were titillatedat the prospect of hearing first-hand thenew and daring revelations of psycho-analysis dealing with sex and dreams.

The good doctor appeared as adver-tised, bewiskered, speaking with haltingaccent, and walking with a limp ac-quired in the late war. There was anafternoon lecture followed by a dinnerin Risley for a few carefully chosenguests at which Mrs. Farrand and MissGertrude Nye, dean of Risley Hall, pre-

sided as hostesses. Receptions for Dr.Vosberg were held in Miss Nye's parlorbefore and after a second evening lec-ture.

Reactions in the audience varied fromthe suspicious to the credulous, from theindifferent to the enthusiastic, but ap-parently Vosberg was generally acceptedby students and faculty alike as a bonafide, if eccentric, apostle of his formid-able master in Vienna, Dr. SigmundFreud. Some inevitably recognized be-hind the painstakingly careful disguisethe voice and lean form of a campusgraduate student and would-be enter-tainer.

The campus buzzed over the week-end. Mrs. Andrew D. White let it beknown that the University had compro-mised itself in permitting a vulgar Ger-man to speak on its campus. A graciousreview appeared Monday in the CornellDaily Sun with a word of gratitude fromVosberg for the consideration shownhim as he "boarded the steam cars forNew York." This review, as well as theannouncements preceding the lecture,had been carefully arranged with the

December 1964

editor of the Sun who had been pledgedto secrecy until the Tuesday morningedition. He was understandably dis-gruntled to have the Ithaca Journal-News scoop him with the denouementof the hoax in their Monday eveningedition. An Associated Press correspond-ent, (Judge Elbert Tuttle Ί 8 , then alaw student) broadcast an account ofthe hoax, with photographs of Vosbergwhich received front page banners andeditorials in most of the newspapers inthe United States and Europe.

Mrs. Farrand sweeps in

As viewed from the inside, it must beadmitted that there was no hope orintention on the part of the conspiratorsof making this an international affair.For my part, there had been no thoughtof giving a hoax at all. The sequence ofevents that led to this bizarre experienceare as follows.

After graduation in 1921, I returnedas a Fellow in Architecture of the Cor-nell Graduate School. At the request ofthe faculty of the College of Architec-ture, I had written and directed a playfor the Semi-centennial of the College.This play, "The Purloined Thumbtack,"was duly presented at the celebration inOctober. At a repeat performance fora campus audience in November, theFarrand family were guests of honor.After the performance, Mrs. Farrandswept into our improvised dressing roomto offer her compliments and ask me totea the following day. Then, with spark-ling eye, she said she had just had "asimply wonderful idea" to discuss.

The hoax shapes up

I was staggered to learn the next daythat Mrs. Farrand's "idea" was to hoaxthe university. Mr. Farrand, sitting near-by with his suave smile, made no com-ment that I can remember, but I won-dered how he felt as president in hoax-ing a campus on which he had just setfoot. Apparently he had no more resist-ance than I to this formidable per-sonality, who launched merrily intoplans and details. The Women's Cosmo-politan Club's International Carnival,just three weeks away, offered an ap-propriate setting for a foreign lecturer.After deciding that the hoax was to dealwith psycho-analysis, then a subject ofpopular interest, the services of ProfessorHarry Weld of the department of psy-chology were enlisted. He readilyagreed to make the formal introductionto the lectures and provided me withseveral books on psycho-analysis as well

8

as a briefing on the subject. I then con-coted a fairly plausible treatise, withlegitimate quotations, and an equalamount of original material on the Cal-culus as applied to dreams. The name,Herman Vosberg, was chosen out ofthin air.

In the meantime, we organized thecoterie of faithfuls needed in the execu-tion of the hoax. This must include LucyOwenstein, the president of the Cosmo-politan Club, Ruth Seymour (Mrs. Stay-man Reed, Grad) who ran the slidesand a few other officers and, of course,Miss Gertrude Nye, dean of PrudenceRisley Hall, where the lectures weregiven. The editor of the Cornell DailySun agreed to let me write the pre-liminary notices and the review on Mon-day morning to insure a consistent story.

As to my personal disguise. Followinga photograph of Anders Zorn, I grew myhair longer than usual on the back andsides and had an unamused barber trimit very short on top and front. When hesaid "You look like a cheine' ", I knewwe had succeeded. The beard and mus-tache were applied by Merrill, make-upexpert of the Dramatic Club, so well asto defy detection at close quarters. Iapplied face putty to the small depres-sion in the ridge of my nose, a prominentfeature that I thought might otherwisebe recognized. Pince-nez glasses with along black cord lent a professional air.

The long half-hour

My wardrobe consisted of a full darktie with a gates-ajar collar, stripedtrousers borrowed from Louis Fuertesand a frock coat loaned by my fellowgraduate student, Lake Baldridge. I paiddearly for this clothing by having Louisand Lake sit in the very front row,broadly grinning and, to add one morehazard to a perilous experience, theyhad brought President Farrand withthem.

My dialect was a compound of Ger-man and Jewish, acquired in entertain-ing over the years. Some time was spentin establishing a routine of gestures anda limp in my right leg.

At 5:30 on the afternoon of December3rd, my classmate Tokisuke Yokogawapicked me up at Founder's Hall with hisautomobile, one of the few on the cam-pus, and, after stopping for ProfessorWeld, delivered us to the rear stage doorof the Recreation Hall of Prudence Ris-ley.

We could hear beyond the curtainsthe sound of what was then called a "teadance" which was shortly interrupted to

assemble the audience for the lecture.How inappropriate a lecture on psycho-analysis seemed just then! This was along half hour for us both as we were notat all confident that we would not bepromptly unmasked. The curtains finallyrustled open. Weld walked briskly tothe podium and spoke so calmly andconvincingly of the speaker and his sub-ject that I felt a degree of reassurance.After bowing awkwardly to him and theaudience with one hand held over thetoweling that made the stomach Ilacked, I limped to the desk. As alwaysthe first few words dispelled the un-easiness that precedes the plunge and Ilived another's life for the next fewhours, a sort of self-hypnosis. Vosbergwas a man of tense earnestness who neversmiled.

"The dreamer does know"

As pre-arranged, the room was dark-ened after the introduction with onlythe reflection from the papers on thereading desk and light from the screento illuminate my features. This was notonly a defense against recognition, butgave an atmosphere suitable to a discus-sion of dreams and the sub-conscious.The use of lantern slides further divertedthe attention of the audience.

Any speaker is keenly aware of thereactions of his audience, but it waspuzzling to find a relatively calm accept-ance of the fictitious dream graphs andactive tittering at the authentic quota-tions; especially, "The dreamer doesknow what he dreams, but does notknow that he knows, and therefore be-lieves he does not know." This wasquoted as prime nonsense in most of thenewspaper accounts.

"Hi, Charlie"

It was difficult to assess the degree ofacceptance of the lecture. A poll of theaudience would probably have yieldedfew candid answers. Undoubtedly, manyconsidered the speaker and his ideassuspect, but others, uninterested or un-informed on the subject, were merelycontent to be there among the intel-ligentsia. At any rate, except for a fewripples of laughter, there was respectfulattention. The text of the lecture, re-produced in full elsewhere in this issue,will permit the reader to make up hisown mind about the subject matter.After the curtains closed, Weld and Iexchanged glances of relief, content thatwe had not been openly challenged.

We remained backstage until the room

Cornell Alumni News

had cleared and then joined Mrs. Far-rand, Mrs. Weld and Miss Nye for din-ner with a few guests who had beeninvited to meet me. We proceeded downthe center aisle to the head table of thedining hall with the girls standing attheir places. One of these, Gert Lynahan,whispered as I passed, "Hi, Charlie." Itwas apparent my disguise could not foolthose who knew me well. As the headtable was somewhat removed and in-cluded but a few persons not yet in onthe hoax, Mrs. Farrand could not resistthe desire to ply me with leading andprovocative questions. She was having avery good time. But I was preoccupiedwith new and unanticipated problems,how to keep the soup out of my mus-tache and the crumbs out of my beard.

Mrs. Farrand to the rescue

Following dinner an informal recep-tion was held in Miss Nye's parlors. Mrs.Farrand introduced the guests with fit-ting ceremony and listened to the inter-views with great relish. I soon realizedthat we had indeed risked everythingwith these face-to-face encounters. Forinstance, my first was a man who hadheard the afternoon lecture and cameback for the reception solely to challengemy application of Calculus to the dream.Having had a full year of Calculus, Iwas as well aware as he that my theorieswere too suυerficial to be defended. Aswe talked, I could see the light dawn inhis face. When he asked, "Have youread Stephen Leacock?" I made somelame remarks about those who could notdistinguish sense from nonsense. Hewithdrew like a gentleman so as not todisillusion the others waiting to talk tome. Mrs. Farrand who had been listen-ing with great glee, agreed to forestallany more long interviews. As a matter offact, she retrieved me adroitly fromseveral ventures on thin ice such as themoment when she brought forward ayoung co-ed who spoke to me in Ger-man. I said that it would be impoliteunder the circumstances to speak in Ger-man. The girl then asked me in Englishjust where I lived in our common birth-place, Vienna. At this juncture Mrs.Farrand mercifully came forward witha large group who had just arrived forthe evening lecture and who were intro-duced separately without being given anopportunity to talk. They were asked toreturn for the later reception as I mustleave to prepare for the evening lecture.

Professor Weld in his second introduc-tion laid it on somewhat thicker, as weassumed there had been some "leaks"

since the afternoon lecture. In fact, wenow realized our temerity in repeatingthe lecture. However, if the eveningaudience included any disillusioned per-sons, they were considerate and thingsmoved along with only a little more dis-turbance. I would stop occasionally andtap my spectacles on the podium to gainabsolute silence.

— and again

After the lecture, when Dr. Weld an-nounced that another reception wouldbe held, I came off the stage with fearsfully aroused. A glance in the mirrorrevealed a terribly red and disfigurednose in which the bridge of the spectacleshad worn an unnatural groove. Hastyfirst-aid in the lavatory helped a little.My first encounter was with two elderlywomen who asked for names of somegood reference books on psycho-analysisand the publisher and date of appear-ance of my own work on Dreams andthe Calculus. They were so earnest I feltlike a common forger. Then three Aus-trian students spoke to me in a flood ofGerman. Mrs. Farrand adroitly put outthis fire by interrupting them to take meaway for a series of innocuous introduc-tions and handshakings. At this point Isaw an unmistakably mischievous groupof young students making their wayacross the room. Whether or not theywere bent on unmasking me, I signaledMrs. Farrand, who, as pre-arranged insuch an emergency, announced that Imust leave immediately to pack for thelate train to New York. I escaped by therear door.

Dr. Vosberg had lived the four hoursof his brief life in the tense atmosphereof the espionage agent, or at least con-fidence man. Making my way across thecampus, it was fine to breathe the coldnight air and to realize that Vosberg nolonger existed and that I still had a wholeskin. I tested my disguise on an oldfriend, a drug store proprietor fromwhom I frequently bought tobacco. Heinsisted on taking my picture with a greatburst of old-fashioned flashlight powder.This is the picture that was used by thenewspapers and put on sale in the cam-pus store—and the only one taken.

Newspapers delighted

It was not too late to stop at MartinSampson's house for the weekly meetingof the Manuscript Club where I gavethe only repeat performance of the hoaxlecture. Two of the members of the Clubreported the lecture many years later,

E. B. White in the New Yorker, andMorris Bishop in his A History of Cor-nell. Later, Martin Sampson bet me ahundred dollars that no matter what Idid, I would never again get an editorialin the Boston Transcript.

However complete its deception wason the campus, the hoax was an un-qualified and sweeping success in thenewspapers. Tuttle's Associated Pressstory was reasonably correct in its detailsbut the account acquired apocryphalform as it traveled and was invariablywritten as a laugh at the expense of thefaculty. "Cornell University, at least animportant intellectual portion, is recover-ing from one of the severest shocks in itsexistence. Venerable professors and agedresidents are raising a cry, 'What are wecoming toV"(New York World). "Cul-ture camp 'goes cuckoo' when it learnsgreat psycho-analyst is mere student"(Boston Traveler). "When teacher getsfooled there is rejoicing in the classroom"(Brooklyn Eagle). "But may not a valu-able educational lesson be learned fromthis outrageous performance? . . . Whynot select the most imaginative andmendacious among the pupils and letthem do the lecturing and invent all the'experiments?'" (Baltimore Sun).

Freud interviewed

Psycho-analysis as a new science wasderided. "Psycho-analysis . . . imposesno obligation upon the thinker. One maydrift into the spaces of irresponsibility,while he or she yet retains his or herstanding as a sane person" (CincinnatiEnquirer). "I t may be folly to be wiseon a subject where ignorance permitsfree play to fancy." Such stuff as dreamsare made of "either defies analysis orthe task becomes too delightfully easy"(Brooklyn Eagle). "What is the differ-ence, the students are now asking, be-tween psycho-analysis and hocus-pocusif a mere student can put on a false beardand pass for a famous scientist?" (NewYork Evening Mail). A man namedBradford Wester wrote me: "Heartycongratulations on your service to gen-eral sanity and Americanism by yoursatire on the pervert breed of psychicjack-asses!"

The editors moralized on the valueof such hoaxes. "The health of the mind,as well as the body, demands a goodpurgative occasionally. Such a hoax . . .pricks the professional bubble of self-esteem" (Pittsburgh Sun). "The brain. . . needs an escape valve. When it be-comes surcharged with intellectuality, itneeds a way to blow off the excess . . .

December 1964

the large audience . . . was vastly inneed of a mental cathartic. If they canlaugh at their own stuffiness they aresafe." (Louisville Courier).

The Brooklyn Eagle's representative inVienna interviewed Dr. Freud himself,who stated "Like every inquiry into ab-berations of the human mind, it carrieswith it an element of danger for gul-HbleS; who are the ready victims ofamateur exponents."

The London Times took a sober view:"The Freudian psychology is both excit-ing and difficult to understand; it istherefore misunderstood by many peoplewho wish for excitement. . . The remedyis in hoaxes like that of Ithaca, and alsoin a realization of the fact that the newpsychology is not easily understood, andstill less easily practiced, though, as thelecturer in Ithaca has proved, it is veryeasily parodied, whether consciously orunconsciously." Incidentally, only threemonths later a similar hoax on psycho-analysis was carried out at Oxford Uni-versity.

Dr. Faust, professor of German atCornell, received from a friend in Ger-many an account of the hoax from theBerlin Allgemeiner Zeitung. Across theclipping his friend had written "1st dassein Hallowe'en Scherz (joke)?" Dr.Faust, who considered the hoax a slighton German culture, was indignant andwas persuaded with great difficulty togive me the clipping.

"Daisy" the magnificent

The climax came when I found aletter from Germany in my mailbox onenight two weeks after the lecture. WasFreud himself on my trail? As I couldnot read German, I spent an anxious 24hours until it was deciphered as merelya request from a minister in Russow,Germany, named Herbert Vossberg, afamily-tree hound who had read an ac-count of the hoax in the Rostock BuntesAllerleu and wanted to know why andhow I chose the name Vosberg as analias. About this time, the disturbingand distracting effects of publicity, verg-ing on notoriety, led me to cut shortany further correspondence or publiccontacts relating to Vosberg and hisideas about dreams.

This account, made for the record atthe request of former President DeaneW. Malott, may hold some interest forfuture presidents' wives who yearn "toenliven the campus" but it is most im-probable that any campus will everagain see the likes of Mrs. MargaretK. ("Daisy") Farrand.

The lecture:

THE FREUDIAN THEORY

With later developmentsby Dr. Herman Vosberg

"Dreams", as Dr. Freud tells us, "are thatbodily process above which the world-souland immortality are raised as high as theblue ether above the lowest sandy plain."

The world has only two-thirds of our life.During the other third our interest is sus-pended in the outside and we live anotherexistence—the psychic life.

Why then, dear friends, do we ignore, orat most ridicule, that chief activity whichoccupies one-third of our mortal existence;namely, dreams-

This afternoon I shall attempt to justifythe viewpoint of a new school of psycho-analysts—giving the dream its proper sig-nificance and value.

A study of history will do much to giveus faith in this study. Is there anyone whodoes not know of Pharaoh's dream, Joseph'sinterpretation and the consequences? Hasanyone forgotten the dream of Pilot's wifeand its disastrous results? Are we not toldthat Alexander the Great never undertookany great campaigns without his most trust-ed dream interpreters; it would have beenas impossible as a campaign today withoutaviation scouts.

In contrast, interest in dreams in moderntimes has deteriorated into superstition andasserts itself only among the ignorant. AsDr. Freud himself says, "The study ofdreams is regarded with suspicion as a fan-tastic mystery study and is left to laymen,poets, natural philosophers, mystics, andnature-cure fakirs." He said to me in warn-ing when I confided my intention to pursuethis work, "I will tell you now that by sodoing you will ruin your chances of successat any university and when you go into theworld you will be regarded as a fanatic andfakir."

So is it any wonder that when this manappeared, strong enough to speak his con-victions, in a society which does not under-stand his aims, which regards him with sus-picion and hostility, and which turns looseupon him all the malicious spirits which lurkwithin it, I say, is it any wonder he shouldbe little appreciated? I refer to my reveredmaster, Dr. Sigmund Freud, a persecutedpioneer.

(FIRST SLIDE, a portrait of Dr. Freud)

I cannot, in the short time given me thisafternoon, digress with a eulogy on Dr.Freud, but will give a single instance to in-dicate his scientific fortitude. When a youngstudent and very poor, he lived in Viennawith his brother in the garret of a tenement.His brother took sick and became steadilyworse. One day Freud was nearing the endof a long experiment, the result of years ofconscientious effort and his brother in thenext room was dying of fever. Late into thenight he kept calling "Water, water." ButFreud could not hear him so vitally inter-ested was he in the solution of an experi-ment which would revolutionize science.Finally he achieved success, concluded his

experiment, and, going into the next room,closed the eyes of his dead brother. Such sin-cerity of purpose could not fail to producemarvelous results.

I shall now proceed to give you the chiefelements involved in dream interpretation,avoiding all technical terms and omittingmany phases of psycho-analysis itself, inwhich I am sure you would not be interestedthis afternoon. To make these lectures pos-sible in this country, this step has been nec-essary. I will now bother you with a defini-tion which will make the following matterplainer.

Psychiatry is the treatment of mental dis-orders. Psycho-analysis gives to psychiatrythe omitted psychological foundation.

I would say here that it is not possible togive public dream interpretations, as youmay have expected; because, first, you wouldbe constrained from speaking your truemind because of the audience; secondly, youwould, very probably, either be embarrassedor insulted by my analysis. Hence, no onehas ever heard a true public dream analysis.Absolute privacy and confidence between thepsycho-analyst and the patient are necessary—so do not expect me this afternoon to in-terpret your particular dreams.

I shall, rather, give you the key to theanalysis of your own dreams which you mayeasily use yourself, provided you do not ig-nore the following idea. I quote this fromDr. Freud in his well known book on psycho-analysis. This is the keystone of our science.

"The dreamer does know what he dreams,but does not know that he knows, and there-fore believes he does not know."

You will not, at first, admit dreams evento yourself. As Freud says, "It is a pre-dis-position to consider an unpleasant idea un-true." We must realize some truth in Plato'sstatement, "The virtuous person contentshimself with dreaming what the wicked per-son does." So the first step is to admit thetruth to yourself. If you obey that impulsewithout any hesitation you have made thefirst step.

I shall now, before taking up Wish-Ful-fillment, show you a few of the happy re-sults obtained in the laboratory from theapplication of Calculus to the Dream. Thiswill materially simplify the dream mechan-ism itself and enable you to grasp the es-sence of the dream content.

In our dreams appear various symbolswhich scientists have accepted as having arelation to earthly life. I shall not botheryou with a description of them and mentionthis only to say that these graphs were de-veloped from the comparison of these sym-bols with everyday objects.

Professor Schraum of Budapest says, "Thecontent of the dream is analogous to toneswhich the ten fingers of a musically illiterateperson would bring forth if they ran overthe keys of the instrument." It is our purposehere to collect these scattered elements andarrange them in their proper harmony.

Patients usually say when awakened,Freud tells us, "I could draw it but cannotsay it." So we see dream experiences arepreeminently pictures.

So we searched for a long time to find amedium which would make all this evidentwithout the burdensome mass of technicalexplanation. Calculus finally filled this needand I shall now show you the principaldream types described by graphs.

This graph is plotted with relation to twoaxes—the horizontal one, the axis of time,and the vertical one, the axis of intensity ordegree of unconsciousness. I n this first ex-ample, the troubled dream, we have threeareas: the spiritual area, the nebulous orblurred area, and the area of actuality. T h e

troubled dream includes all types of dreamsdisturbed by unpleasant happenings, thesensation of being confronted by terribleimages, murders, and includes what is com-monly called the "night-mare." It is a verycommon dream and indicates the impropermotives in daily life. As you see, the graphproceeds through the common point of thetwo axes, or the point of dropping asleep,and passes into the nebulous, the foggy areabetween the sleeping and the waking life. Itwavers, unable to pass into the area of rest,returns several times to wakefulness andthen passes for a short time into the spirit-ual life, is disturbed again by disagreeableexperiences and then, due to some suddenlyintroduced cause, plunges through the nebu-lous area—and the terrified dreamer awakes.

This is the normal dream of one who isbeyond psycho-analytical treatment. Beinghappy and contented, all the factors arenicely adjusted and a beautiful smooth curveresults, parabolic in contour. The greatest

intensity of the unconscious is attained at apoint approximately three-fourths of theway through the dream after which a moresudden but gradual decrease is detected. Thekeen observer will notice that this curve hasa remarkably great number of applications.It well symbolizes life itself, if we regard thearea below the horizontal axis as the pre-natal state and that above, life itself. Theperson is born, or crosses the life line at thezero point, progresses with uniformly in-creasing intensity of consciousness to thecritical point of maturity and then, throughthe failing of the senses, more quickly, butstill uniformly, declines to the second pointof crossing, or death. In musical composi-tion we find this curve symbolic of the bestsymphonies. The degree of interest in the

is accomplished. So we have effected a curein the following manner. The patient is in-duced to sleep under favorable conditionsand by the operation of outside agencies heis caused to dream. This, of course, intro-duces a break in the sleep curve and hepasses across the axis into wakefulness. Ishall quote a little from Freud to show howthese dreams are induced. These experi-ments were conducted in Budapest in con-junction with Professor Friml. I quote fromhis Psycho-analysis: "The dreamer was in-duced to sleep. We placed a bottle of per-fume under his nose. He soon awoke andtold us he had been walking through thepoppy fields at Cairo and the strong pungentodor had suffocated him. Another patientwas pinched by the nape of the neck. Helater awoke telling us he had dreamt some-one was applying a mustard plaster to himand the pain had almost overcome him. Athird time we placed a few drops of wateron the brow of the patient. He soon awoketelling us he had dreamt of rowing a boatin a stormy sea, until perspiring, he had suc-cumbed to exhaustion."

So much for calculus and its invaluableaddition to psycho-analysis.

Let us proceed to our third and last con-sideration—that of wish-fulfillment. Let megive you the essence of the Freudian theory.Let us assume that for some reason or othera terrible idea occurs to us; for instance, thefirst sin of man, the desire to kill our brother.What do we immediately do? Our consci-ence tells us it is a wrong idea and we sup-press the fiendish desire. Soon, we entirelyforget it and if anyone should suggest it tous, we laugh at them. We say, "Why such aterrible thing would never occur to me!"But here is the point—we have not forgottenit after all. It secretes itself in our inner sub-consciousness and then some night in ourdream when our conscience, or as Freud hasit, "the censor" does not operate, we dreamof killing our brother and awake horrifiedand proceed immediately to throw the ideafrom our mind. This is where I give you thekey to the whole matter. Do not reject thesedreams that seem absurd or terribly impos-sible to you. Take them and ponder overthem and you will find that the most ridic-ulous dream has often the greatest signifi-cance. Why do you laugh when you tellsomeone of how you dreamt you were fall-ing from some great height? Reflect. Do younever remember of having stood on somebuilding or precipice and looking down, say-ing to yourself, "What if I should jump?With one movement of my foot I could endthis whole world that seems too serious tome. What a sensation it would be!" Thenyour saner mind said to you, "Fool—stepback. Do you wish to be a suicide?"

And again in dreams we struggle to attainour ideals or ambitions. We have oftenwatched birds soaring and wished to ex-perience what we imagine to be a blissfulsensation. But our sordid everyday selvessay, "You were made to keep both feet onthe ground. Don't waste time imagining animpossibility." Then what do we do? Wego home and dream of flapping our armsand soaring off into space with absoluteease. The early aeronauts took this thingseriously and were derided, but yet today,right over our very heads we see man flyingin machines of his own creation.

So look in your dreams for that seriousidea which may decide your life. Take it,ponder on it, admit everything to yourself,withhold nothing, do not allow it to becomeburied within you, only to recur time aftertime, the object of ridicule. Then throughour dreams we come to know ourselves aswe really are.

Let me close after first giving you a glanceat this picture which is the symbol of ourscience. It is the frontispiece of Dr. Freud'sinimitable work on psycho-analysis.

(SLIDE SIX, the prisoner's dream)Here is the prisoner, symbolic of ourselves

shut up in our puny earthly frame, dreamingof escape which he knows, when he is awake,is impossible. These little figures representthe help of psycho-analysis pointing out theway of escape, pushing aside the bars ofprejudice and intolerance, and pointing theway to the great eternal comprehension ofthe universe where our spirits may dwelluntrampled by life's vicissitudes.

Tomorrow morning when you come downto the breakfast table with what you thinkis a foolish dream on your lips, before youtell it, before you laugh—stop—think!

The University:

BUILD-UPFOR 1980

• "In fifteen years, there will be nosuch thing as a good small university."So said vice provost Thomas W.Mackesey, Grad, as he outlined expan-sion plans that include the most exten-sive building program in Cornell'shistory. He based his prediction on theincreasingly accepted idea in highereducation that a "critical mass must bereached before a university will be ableto develop the specialized programs anincreasingly complex society will de-mand, before essential and expensiveequipment and facilities can be pro-vided, and before the company of pro-fessors who can make the universitytruly great can be assembled." In thislight, Cornell is not today a large uni-versity as measured by what is happen-ing and what is planned at other majorinstitutions.

That there will be substantial pres-sures pushing Cornell toward "criticalmass" in the next fifteen years thereseems to be little doubt. The relentlessgrowth of population in America andthe world; the increasing demand forhigher education, with its consequentgreater emphasis on graduate study; thesteadily growing volume of university-oriented research for government andindustry all point to a Cornell that willprobably have 17,500 students and quitepossibly 20,000 by 1980. Mackeseyemphasized that this is not an officialuniversity goal, but rather a realisticestimate based upon the growth of pastyears and the aforementioned pressuresin the years ahead.

A considerably larger percentage ofthis increased enrollment will be gradu-ate students. "This is inevitable," saidProfessor Mackesey, "with the increas-

ing demand for post-baccalaureate edu-cation and with the increasing commit-ment to and support for research. Thedemands of government, industry, andof the universities themselves for highlytrained people will increase the numberof graduate students."

"At present," Professor Mackeseycontinued, "about 3,000, or twenty-fivepercent, of the students in Ithaca arein the graduate schools or in the post-baccalaureate professional schools. Wecan anticipate that this figure will in-crease to forty percent or possibly evenfifty percent of total enrollment.

"If we assume a 1980 student popu-lation of 17,500, of which forty percentwould be graduates, we would have7,000 graduate students and 10,500 un-dergraduates. It will be seen that thisprojection more than doubles the num-ber of graduate students while increas-ing the number of undergraduates byonly 1,500 above the present 9,000.

"There will be increasing demandfrom government, from industry, andfrom society at large for adult educationprograms of all kinds, both on and offthe campus, and on a year-round basis.The concept of 'extension' will be ex-panded and broadened. We can expectan increasing number of short courses,refresher courses, and conferences withperhaps a special building designed forthese purposes.

"However, two principles will be keptin mind as more buildings are plannedand erected on the university campus.Cornell should remain a walking cam-pus. We should not spread academicbuildings and housing so diffusely overthe landscape that walking distances arestretched beyond toleration. And we

should try to keep vehicular traffic outof the central campus as much aspossible.

"It will be necessary to build moreintensively in some areas of the campusin order to preserve certain large areasof open space of special quality orutility. This will mean that we mustthink in terms of the harmonious group-ing of buildings rather than dealingwith individual buildings, each sur-rounded with its own open space. Wewill develop more high-rise buildings inorder to hold down land coverage andpreserve as much open space aspossible."

Anticipating this explosive growth ingraduate study and adult education overthe next decade, Mackesey disclosedthat construction projects already un-derway or in planning at Cornell in-volve twenty-seven buildings costingmore than $82 million.

These projects, he said, include "onlythe buildings and facilities we are cer-tain we will need. With the exception ofthe proposed new art museum, fundshave been partially committed by theCentennial Campaign, and by state andfederal agencies. These buildings repre-sent facilities that we would need evenwithout the expected increase in enroll-ment. In the years ahead, a great dealmore building will be needed to prepareus for 1980. As a matter of fact, manyother additions and changes in our cam-pus are being considered because of therapidly changing patterns of highereducation."

Many of the new buildings mentionedby Mackesey are intended to providelaboratories and research facilities foradvanced studies by graduate students.Heart of the building program is a sci-ence center, which eventually will in-clude six new buildings and the com-plete renovation of an existing facility(Baker Chemistry Lab) at a total costof up to $30 million.

Two existing buildings are still in thedilemma stage of the decision-makingprocess. Rockefeller Hall (physics) is"old and obsolete" and the universitymust decide whether to renovate or razeit and build anew. Mackesey recom-mended razing and suggested that mean-while a platform be built in frontof the existing building which wouldcontain lecture-demonstration rooms. Ifthe decision is made to tear Rockefellerdown, the new structure could be builton top of the proposed platform, thussolving the problem of providing class-room space while either new construe-

tion or renovation proceeds. A newphysics building might cost $4 million,Mackesey felt.

What to do with the White Art Mu-seum presents a more difficult decision.Lack of fireproofing, security and hang-ing space preclude Cornell getting manyof the outstanding traveling art exhibitsthat should be a regular part of the uni-versity scene. Mackesey emphasized thathe was not proposing demolition of thebuilding and pointed out that the uni-versity might very well want to preserveit as a monument to Andrew D. White,the university's first president. In themeantime, however, sketches are beingdrawn for a $4.3 million art museum atan as yet unnamed site.

The following projects are under wayor are expected to begin within a year:

Professor Mackesey, in addition toserving on the Cornell faculty and ad-ministration, has gained considerablerenown as a city and regional plannerover the past two decades. He heads aplanning staff which includes threearchitects. Working with the group onthe development of plans for the futuregrowth of the Cornell campus is a re-cently established faculty committee onlong-range planning. In addition, theuniversity's Board of Trustees throughits committee on buildings and proper-ties has also been involved in the de-velopment of policy affecting campusdevelopment.

Academic speed-up

The Arts and Sciences Faculty hasapproved a plan introduced by DeanStuart M. Brown 537—with the backingof President Perkins—whereby a hand-picked group of students will be able toshave one to three years off the time ittakes a freshman to obtain the PhD. Thestudents chosen—about forty to start—can achieve the AB in three years, themaster's in four, and the doctorate in six.

The advanced timetable, say its spon-sors, is not just a speed-up, but a practi-cal recognition that exceptionally matureseniors from the best high schools haveactually been doing college caliber work.Candidates will not only have to havehigh achievements and recommenda-tions from their schools, but also meetsuperior standards in reading back-ground, writing ability, and maturityof thought.

Up to now colleges have been respond-ing to the pressures of the exceptionallywell prepared freshman largely throughinformal concessions. Columbia has al-lowed some undergraduates to takeenough graduate courses to almost com-plete their master's requirements bycommencement time. Yale announcedlast January that a select group of stu-dents would be permitted to completetheir AB and MA work simultaneouslyin four, rather than five years.

The Cornell plan, now in the hands

of a faculty committee for final drafting,calls for an intensive six-week summerorientation prior to matriculation, spe-cial advisors and seminars, and financialaids throughout the course. A grant ofperhaps $2.3 million will be sought fromthe Ford Foundation to support the firstten years of the program.

Kaufmann gift

In honor of his parents, the late Mr.and Mrs. Joseph Kaufmann, RichardKaufmann '22 has made a gift of$100,000 to the university. The gift willprovide part of the funds necessary toconstruct a new lecture hall wing whichwill replace the 300-seat lecture hall"B" in Goldwin Smith Hall. Kaufmannis senior partner in Kaufmann, Alsberg& Co., New York brokers, and a memberof the University Council.

Alumni committees

At the annual fall meeting of theCornell Alumni Association on October30, President Charles M. Stotz '21named new committee chairman for thecoming year: Alumni Trustee Nomina-tions, Bernard P. Lampert '48; Second-ary Schools, Guy T. Warfield III '51;Alumni Placement, Walter Bacon '30;Publications, Thomas B. Haire '34.

"Export" students

President Perkins was a member of acommittee of educators that recom-mended broad changes and expansionof public higher education in New Jer-sey. The committee's report to GovernorRichard S. Hughes called the state'sprogram "gravely inadequate" and pre-dicted serious trouble if quick actionwere not taken. It warned that otherstates may increasingly bar studentsfrom states which fail to discharge theirown obligations. New Jersey "exported"56,507 more students last year than itaccepted from outside the state. Thiswas the largest number in the nation.New York was second, with 36,232.

New fraternity plan

Kappa Alpha and the university havebegun joint management of the frater-nity's house at 14 South Avenue. Underthis experimental program, the univer-sity housing and dining services willhave responsibility for food and rooms,and members will pay bills direct to the

university. House officers will retain re-sponsibility for the educational, socialand fraternal aspects of house operation.

Assistant Dean of Students Donald M.Sheraw emphasized that "the fraternityas a social organization experiences nochange in its relationship with its mem-bers or the Interfraternity Council."

Kappa Alpha is one of eight frater-nities that are part of the university'sgroup housing plan. Under this planfraternity alumni contributed to the con-struction of the house and Cornell as-sumed ownership of the house.

(Four fraternities in this plan—Kap-pa Alpha, Delta Upsilon, Zeta Psi, andPhi Sigma Delta—are involved in a suitfiled by the university against Ithaca'sBoard of Assessors. Cornell contendsmembers of the Group Housing Planshould be tax-exempt; the city says theyshouldn't be. The case is expected to beargued before the Appellate Division ofthe State Supreme Court early nextyear.)

In recent years fraternities have foundheavy tax loads, costly repairs and com-plex food service operations more bur-densome, Dean Sheraw pointed out.One answer has been reliance on aprivate distribution company that sup-plies food and cooks to 28 of Cornell's54 fraternities. University officials be-lieve that the joint venture now beingattempted at Kappa Alpha may be an-other answer.

Messenger lectures

Prof. Richard P. Feynman, formerCornell professor who is now at theCalifornia Institute of Technology, de-livered the fall Messenger Lectures un-der the general title of "The Char-acter of Physical Law." The series wastaped by the British Broadcasting Cor-poration for later showing on inter-national television.

Secondary Schools—the new undergraduate committee at work

BY TIM RICHARDS ?66

• Last year, out of 9,843 applicants tothe undergraduate divisions of the uni-versity, 4,148 were approved. Of thoseselected, 2,420 in turn "approved" ofCornell by enrolling in the Fall. The re-maining 1,728 decided to go elsewherefor their higher education. Althoughthere were sizable variations betweenthe undergraduate colleges, more thanforty-one percent "rejected" Cornellafter being admitted. It is obvious thatthe university needs to do a better sell-ing job.

President Perkins, in his inaugural ad-dress, emphasized the need to attractthe most highly qualified applicants tothe undergraduate divisions by workingat the secondary school level. Realizingthe need pointed out by Dr. Perkins,the Undergraduate Secondary SchoolsCommittee defined its goals and pur-poses and, under the guidance of DonaldDickason '53, Director of AdmissionsRelations, undertook an expansion ofits membership and effort. The purposeof this committee is "to serve CornellUniversity by working closely with theadmissions office of the university andthe various Alumni Secondary SchoolCommittees throughout the UnitedStates with the objective of raising thecaliber of the university student, by at-tracting the most highly qualified ap-plicants to all the undergraduate di-visions of the university, and to en-courage the matriculation of such ap-plicants following their acceptance byCornell."

Attesting the committee's increasingpopularity among undergraduates is thefact that in one year the Committeegrew from 150 unscreened members to754 applicants, 450 of whom wereselected. This year there were 800 ap-plications. The members consist of out-standing individuals from each class andall divisions of the university. They areenthusiastic, informed, and dedicated toimproving Cornell.

This student organization, then, can

16

be thought of as a university missionarysociety. Its members, while at home dur-ing vacations, spread the word throughpersonal contacts with the sub-frosh andtheir parents and informal discussionsbefore college-bound student audiencesin their hometown areas. In a very realsense, the USSC member is Cornell tothe sub-frosh, his family, and school ad-visors.

The committee, conscious of the geo-graphic distribution of students, wantsto spread the knowledge of Cornell intoareas where it is now not well known. Alarge share of this effort is carried onby those USSC undergraduates knownas "Members-at-Large," who operateindividually in areas or communities notnormally covered by alumni or under-graduate efforts.

The USSC also has coordinate re-sponsibility for the activities of the Dis-advantaged Group Recruitment Com-mittee. This sub-committee, founded byStudent Government in 1963, has thegoal of exploring means to aid disad-vantaged students in urban slums, andother less advantaged locations, to be-come aware of the opportunities avail-able to them in higher education atCornell and elsewhere.

To the writer's knowledge, CornellUniversity has the only significant,undergraduate off-campus effort in theUnited States. There are many on-campus student hosting efforts, but no-where do students cooperate as muchwith the admissions office in encourag-ing and contacting qualified applicantsas at Cornell.

The primary benefit of the commit-tee's efforts has been in the missionaryaspects. Don Dickason explains: "Thegreatest value of undergraduate partici-pation lies in the acceptability of thestudent's positive statements about theuniversity." He adds, "This acceptabilityis much higher than that accorded usprofessionals no matter how well in-formed and impressive we might like to

be. It's also true that the candidate willask many more personal questions ofanother student than he would of us."

Various alumni committee chairmenwere solicited for their comments con-cerning undergraduate efforts. GuyWarfield III '51 of Baltimore hit uponanother reason for the effectiveness ofundergraduates when he said, "We mustremember that in many cases the col-lege students, with respect to highschool juniors and seniors in their home-town area, are still talking to friends!"

The committee also provides man-power and time. Bill Knauss '45 ofDutchess County, New York, spokepretty much for everyone when he said,"Sometimes we business people cannotget to some of these sub-frosh withoutjeopardizing our work. Often the besttime to see students is during lunch, butthis is an unnatural atmosphere forthem. The undergraduate, when he ishome during vacation, can often spendan hour with these chaps and they mayeven wind up going to a ballgame to-gether!"

In Chicago, chairman Shirley HulseJr. '37 explains: "During Christmasand Spring vacations, we have beenplagued by a shortage of our own com-mitteemen and it was here that theUSSC members helped fill the vacuumby calling on and visiting boys. We got

Chairman.

Vice-Chairman.

reports that there was some effectivework being done."

He then added that during their an-nual fall "Kick-Off Party," the USSCmembers carried the program complete-ly. "They broke their presentation downinto three areas, one member spoke onacademic life and atmosphere, anotheron the social aspects, and a third mem-ber on athletics and activities. It was agood program."

Larry Burrows '34 of Pittsburghoften likes to show the thirty-minuteCornell film strip to groups of highschool boys and girls, and this year

Cornell Alumni News

found it most effective to have severalUSSG members give some commentaryon the pictures and then answer thequestions the film strip seems to generate.He said that the "undergraduate some-how manages to convey more to the highschool seniors and juniors than thealumnus. You can tell by the nature ofthe questions asked and the keen focusof attention on the undergraduate rep-resentatives. By the time the under-graduates come home from vacation inthe fall, most of the students have foundout the answers to their usual first ques-tions about 'What does it take to get in?'from their guidance counselors, cat-alogues, and to some extent, alumni.Then they start wondering about 'What'sit like there?' "

Paradoxically, the committee is re-garded as an "invaluable aid" to somealumni, but only as having "great po-tential" to others. Bill Marcussen '50,Philadelphia, when summarizing hisfeelings for the effectiveness of his area'sundergraduate committee, wrote: "Theundergraduate is the single most effec-tive contact that can be made with aprospective candidate." Larry Burrowsstated quite emphatically, "This lastyear we were most effective with theundergraduate committee helping us."Shirley Hulse said that he found thecommittee of "invaluable use to us."

Westchester County alumni said thatthe feedback from parents in their areaafter visits from USSG members wasexcellent, but then complained thatmore communication was needed be-tween the USSG members and alumni.Bill Knauss and Guy Warfield agreewith these latter feelings, but state em-phatically that the committee has tre-mendous potential. An expanding un-dergraduate effort obviously has itsgrowing pains. The Committee and theOffice of Admissions, however, are con-vinced that the ultimate benefits are wellworth the effort.

December 1964

In secondary school work, all effortswithin an area must be known to andcoordinated by one person. This in-cludes efforts by alumni, undergrad-uates, coaches, professors, and admis-sions office representatives. This co-ordinator is the chairman of the Alum-ni Committee. In the channeling of allthe various efforts, the whole processbecomes synergistic in nature, or thewhole becomes greater than the sum ofits parts. The USSC is committed toworking within this framework in themost effective way possible.

Guy Warfield illustrated this syner-gistic process with the following situ-ation: "A coach had heard about a verytalented athlete in a certain area andupon visiting him found that the boywas quite good in math and chemistryand, therefore, quite interested in chemi-cal engineering at Cornell. So, the coachfed this information back to the alumniarea chairman who saw to it that thisboy was contacted not only by a grad-uate of Cornell's chemical engineeringschool, but also by a USSG undergrad-uate who was enrolled in one of the en-gineering divisions. With everyone work-ing together, Cornell got a good studentand the coach got his top player sinceno one tried to talk intelligently aboutsomething he knew relatively littleabout."

The value of this coordination issummed up by Bill Knauss: "It isn't acase of stepping on toes, but a case ofgetting the maximum utilization of ef-fort."

Because of the rapid turnover ofundergraduates, it has been difficult toestablish effective continuity betweenthe alumni and undergraduate efforts.The undergraduates are becoming moreand more aware of the responsibilitythey have to get their program dove-tailed with the alumni's program wellin advance. Increasingly, undergrad-uates and alumni chairmen are laying

out their plans in pre-season sessions inAugust and September.

Essex County, New Jersey, an areatypical of metropolitan complexity en-countered by many committees, em-ployed a new wrinkle this year. In thepast, the students have tried to carry outsome of their contacts at Thanksgivingtime. This year they contacted no one.But the Alumni Committee had asmoker get-together so that every USSCmember was face to face with his alumnicounterpart. Thus, the alumnus andundergraduates who will be handlingcandidates from the same school orschools are in far better positions to doa better job at the Christmas vacation.

Right now the major emphasis of theundergraduate committee is to servicepeople who have applied. This summer,the first attempt was made to put someemphasis on getting people to apply and,therefore, realize more of the potential-ities of the committee. In several areasof the country, undergraduates calledupon high school guidance counselors,visited old high school friends, lookedup honor society listings and in one wayor another got a list of names of thislast year's top high school juniors. Con-tacts were made with many of thesestudents, now seniors. The names andinformation so obtained have beenturned over to the alumni committee tocomplement the information that theyalready had. This cooperation is onlythe first step in the admissions cycle.

By supplying undergraduates withtheir knack of talking on the same levelwith the sub-frosh, providing moremanpower, and by the making of a longrange investment in developing loyalalumni, the USSC can offer great serv-ices to the university. In the long run, ifpatiently and diligently carried out, theprocess should begin to snowball.

Bill Knauss, in conclusion, made thefollowing remark: "Any student oralumnus should realize, not that he isbeholden to the university, but that hehas or did have a very unusual oppor-tunity to get an education from Cornell.The university offers a rare opportunity.There should be a certain amount ofhumbleness in the alumnus' heart and adesire to return what he received manyfold over. If Cornell is to become agreater university, each of us has torealize we are not the best studentsCornell could have admitted. We havegot to go out and look for men who arebetter than we are or were. Certainly,one of the very best ways to develop thisspirit is through the USSC,"

Olympic Holiday-AND A TAIWAN PILGRIMAGE

BY EMERSON HINGHLIFF '14

B Since returning home, I have read somany good accounts of the TokyoOlympics that it seems silly to try to addanything except a little on the Cornellangle. I must interject, though, that itwas a wonderful show, beautifully puton! It was worth a bout with pneumonia—I went to the hospital for a week theday after my return. Incidentally, in thehospital I met a couple who used tobaby-sit for Sharon Finneran, daughterof former football star Frank K. (Bud)Finneran '41 and Mrs. Finneran '42; Isaw Sharon on TV take the silver medalin the women's 400-meter individualmedley, breaking the old Olympic rec-ord in the process. Those girl swimkidstook Tokyo by storm. Similarly, DonSchollander and his four swimmingmedals were all over the screen for days;I saw him race in person once.

I saw my favorite wrestler, DaveAuble '60, of Ithaca, win his last bout.He took it by decision, but the next dayran up against the eventual bantam-weight champion, Japan's Uetake, andwas eliminated on "bad points." Davedidn't win a medal, but took fourth,which is enough to satisfy any ordinarymortal. Uetake, wrestling for Oklahomaor Oklahoma State, took the AAU titlein his weight at the big meet here inIthaca last spring and is a wonder. Ialso saw Phil Oberlander '61, who placedsixth at welterweight, perform for theCanadian team. My favorite hammer-thrower, Al Hall '56, didn't quite makethe final round, though the big surprisein that event was the failure of Hal Con-nolly.

High Spot

The absolute high spot for me waswhen the American eight-oared crew,with Bill Stowe '62 at stroke, took itsgold medal in the cold, murky darkness,illuminated by flares shot above. All theraces were delayed on this final day be-cause of a quartering wind that wouldhave greatly favored the two inside lanes.By the time the eights rowed, the windhad come around dead ahead, so con-

18

ditions were equal. In the last 500meters, our shell fairly flew and led thefavored German crew by an unbelieve-able five full seconds! I saw Bill afterthey brought the shell in. Were theyhappy! It was a special satisfaction, be-cause they had been defeated by theRatzeburg crew in the preliminaries by24/100ths of a second and had had togo through the repechage process to be-come eligible for the final. They werequoted after that loss: "We'll takethem in the final." Incidentally, I washailed from the stands as I came in byGene Beggs '19 and his wife and had agay visit with them.

Rowing gave me another tremendous,though abortive, thrill. Don Spero '61was the American single-sculler. In hisheat of four, he drew Viacheslav Ivanov,Olympic champion four years ago. Donwas posted on the bulletin board as lead-ing at the 500, 1000, and 1500 metermarks, with the Russian at first third,then second. When they hove into sight,he started to make his move and did pickup a little. Don drew on his reserves andstopped the rush. The inside dope nowis that, as they came past me about100 meters from home, I yelled"CORNELL" twice at the top of mylungs. Five seconds later the Russianquit cold and just paddled in for second.The newspapers were full of the big up-set, but nobody has given me any creditat all. I saw Don and his father after therace, both of them in a very happy glow.Candor forces me to record that Ivanovwent through the "refishing" process,made the final, and won it. Don is youngand strong and I wouldn't be surprisedto see him win at Mexico City in '68.Meanwhile, there are no flies on a sixthat the Olympics.

Several Ithacans were at the games,but the luck of the seating draw placedme next to only one couple once, formervice president Ted Wright and his wifeat a track event. Bob Kane '34, of course,had a tremendous job as manager of thewhole American Olympic team. I heardno squawks.

Serious attendance at an Olympic

gathering is like a postgraduate coursein sports. I dabbled in pretty nearly ev-ery thing: track and field (all but oneday) boxing; equestrian jumping, ataste at the closing ceremony; fencing,saber (it seemed to be a contest as towho could yell louder) gymnastics (in-credibly skilled and beautiful, in personand on TV) judo (interesting, butdragged a bit) Swimming (twice andon TV) Weight lifting (there's moreto it then meets the eye, as I learnedfrom Ken Simmons, who coaches thisat Michigan) Graeco-Roman wres-tling (you can have it). I was supercil-ious about volleyball until I saw theJapanese girls' team trim the Russiansin the final on TV. What a game thatwas—slashing, smashing, point-blank re-turns, feints. It was like tennis doubles,multiplied by three. It hogged all TVchannels that night, though they didget in the last few minutes of the clob-bering the US basketball team gave theRussians in the final game. Princeton'sBill Bradley was an important factor; Istill shudder when I think of what hedid to Cornell in 1963 and 1964 in Bar-ton Hall.

The Marathon

The finish of the marathon was dra-matic. Ethiopia's Abebe circled the quar-ter-mile track by himself and was off onthe infield grass doing setting-up exer-cises and bicycling on his back by thetime the next two entered the stadium.A roar went up because the leader wasa Japanese, though the Englishman hada finishing sprint that brought him thesilver medal. Millions saw every step ofthe way on TV and hundreds of thou-sands lined the route. The pole-vaultwas even more dramatic. It started atone and finished in the cold, wet nightabout 10:30, when Hansen cleared thebar on his final chance; I left about sixand suffered with the vaulters on TV;the German had one last shot andmissed. The Star Spangled Banner wasplayed so much at the stadium that thekids learned to whistle it. The bandplayed a truncated version, just longenough for the flag to reach the top ofthe pole. A trumpeter with a compellingsense for completeness finally couldstand it no longer, brought his cornetalong, took up where the band left off,and gave us the rest, starting with "Therocket's red glare, the bombs bursting inair." It brought down the house. An-other smash hit was pulled by a groupof New Zealanders in the general jol-lification after the closing ceremony;

Cornell Alumni News

its members loped around the track,stopped in front of the royal box, boweddeeply three times, one blew a kiss tothe Emperor, then they performed ashort Maori war dance. It was fun seeingthe manifest pleasure the Japanese tookin their (many) successes, such as toss-ing a winning wrestler in the air (theyeven did it to the oldish president of theJapanese Wrestling Association) andhoisting the standard-bearer of the com-bined teams to some stalwart shouldersand parading him around the stadium.The friendliness of everybody was in-fectious. One couple lent me an umbrel-la to top off my raincoat. Another time,I sat next to a student who used "si"twice; turned out he was a Spanishmajor and we had a fine charla. Therailroad, streetcar, bus, police, and in-formation officials couldn't have beenmore helpful. Several times I got thecrew of a special bus for foreigners sing-ing Japanese songs one dark and stormynight, they took me right to my hotel in-stead of to the regular stop a block ortwo away. I stayed at the Shiba ParkHotel, whose president is Jiro Inumaru,who spent a year at the Hotel School in'54—55; they really looked after methere. I renewed my friendships at theImperial Hotel, especially with HisaoYamano.

At Rotary luncheons, I would alwaysask to be seated next to Japanese. Onesuch turned out to be Tokisuke Yoko-gawa '21*, whose bridge company getsall the hard jobs thrown at it. He invitedme to his home for dinner after theOlympics were over and I had a lovelytime with him, his wife, daughter, son-in-law, and three guests. He spent fiveyears in Ithaca, starting with CascadillaSchool, and said that they had made aman of him. His nephew, NagakazuShimizu, MME '53, was the first Jap-anese Rotary Fellow after the war; herevisited Ithaca this fall. Another RotaryFellow, Eijiro Tanaka, Grad, invited meto visit the island of Kyushu, which Idid on the way back from Taiwan andOkinawa and got a real taste of Jap-anese hospitality by him, his new wife(a big surprise), his parents, and hiscompany, the big Mitsubishi HeavyChemical Co. Leaving them, I took theInland Sea trip and then the new super-express train from Osaka to Tokyo. Ofcourse, I saw again my dear friends Pro-fessor Eiichi Kjyooka '26 (Keio Uni-versity) and his wife; while I was thereshe received a long letter from an old

friend who had read an item about himthat I had passed along to his ClassCorrespondent. My Japanese tutor, Dr.Tatsuro Yamaguchi, PhD '603 met myship, the President Wilson, at Yoko-hama with his young son and was thelast to bid me goodbye as I left for theairport. I should also mention a recep-tion at the American Ambassador's Res-idence. Dr. Reischauer talked warmly

of the late Hu Shih '14 of Taiwan, theKiyookas, and of the great importanceof Rotary in Japan. Another guest wasGeorge H. Stanton '20.

Taiwan and Hu Shih

Mention of Hu Shih's name brings meto the second main objective of my trip:a pilgrimage to his grave. "Doc" Hudied Feb. 24, 1962. For those who missedmy tribute to him at the time I willmerely say that he is one of the brightest(very likely the brightest) alumni jewelsin Alma Mater's crown. He was presi-dent of the Academic Sinica (The Re-public of China's highest intellectual in-stitution) at the time of his death. He isstill revered by the youth of his country.The guide on the Toroko Gorge tour, a

recent graduate of the National Uni-versity of Taiwan, told me that she hadcried for a week after she heard of hispassing. Other tributes were just as sin-cere.

The several buildings of the Acade-mia are about a half hour from the cen-ter of Taipei. The whole complex is aliving vibrant shrine to his memory, cen-tered in his living quarters, which are

kept exactly as they were at the time ofhis death. A wing has been turned into ahall of recollections and includes many,many pictures and mementoes of hisyears at Cornell. Across the road, builtinto a hillside at several levels, are hisgrave and a lifesized bust monument ofhim. Next to the pergola is a sturdy dra-gon cypress tree, planted in September,1963, by Harold Riegelman '14, with awhite marble marker etched with, "Inaffectionate tribute to Hu Shih from hisclassmates, Cornell University, Class of1914." A picture of me (see above) gaz-ing at the statue appeared in China Newsand a Chinese language newspaper. Dr.Wang Shih-chieh, present president anddevoted to "Doc," was my guide.

Before I left Taiwan, I was honoredby being invited to dinner at the home

19

of President Ghien Shih-liang of the Na-tional Taiwan University. He had abouta dozen professors to meet me, mostlyfrom the history department. One manwas an ardent Andrew D. White andCarl Becker fan. Visitors from Cornellare not a novelty to them, but I trustthat the varied recollections of "Doc"that I was able to share with them weresomething fresh. It happened to be Con-fucius' birthday. Newspaper tributes toConfucius stressed that he was aboveall a teacher. "Doc" has been calledthe present-day Confucius. It's an aptdescription, both as a philosopher andteacher, though he had taken issue withnot a few Confucian ideas as appliedto the world today.

I might mention that I was muchimpressed with the educational, agri-cultural, and industrial progress of Tai-wan-Formosa. It is a showcase for theWest right on Red China's doorstep.I can also say that Cornell would wel-come additions to the Hu Shih Memo-rial Scholarship Fund, which is alreadycontributing to three outstanding stu-dents in history and philosophy. Riegel-man is president of the Fund.

Kane and bathhouses

I got a kick out of Bob Kane's columnfrom Tokyo in the November NEWS,

Irrepressible Robert struck a euphoniousnote with his "Forever Emer." I neverread Forever Amber, so reserve judg-ment on the literary angle, but I mustsay that Bob was just plain "chicken"as regards Japanese bathhouses. My fa-vorite was four-story, Tokyo Onsen andits sauna section. First, they sweat youin a big steam room. When you can'tstand that any longer, you park in aroomy warm-water pool until you arecalled for the scrubbing process he sovividly described. Back into the pool fora few moments and then onto one of adozen rubbing tables where you mightin slack times have as many as threetaking a crack at different parts of youranatomy at once. It's quite an experi-ence to be in a roomfull of chatteringninety-pound girls in shorts and haltersand have one of them march up yourcalves, thighs, and each side of yourbackbone in her bare feet! They wouldinvariably exclaim over my (feeble) ef-forts in Japanese; ask me where I stud-ied it, when I arrived, and how old Iwas. What a cackle that would raise!After all this, plus a rest under a fewtowels on a sheltered table, I was readyfor anything.

Dartmouth Game:THE OFFSTAGE STORY

BY ROBERT J. KANE '34

H I haven't seen a losing game this Fall—at this writing (two days before thePrinceton game). I returned from Tokyojust in time to see the nifty performanceagainst Golumbia in New York and thenwith artful prescience I eschewed Brownat Providence, but no more joyous viewerwas on hand at Schoellkopf last Satur-day to see the dissection of Dartmouth.

There is always a certain amount ofdrama taking place off-stage as well ason-stage on these football Saturdays.Especially rich in nuance was thetableau enacted by the thundering melo-drama of the Dartmouth game. On theone hand, a young coach striving to builda career in a year in which mischievousgoblins seem to be crabbing the act.And a not so young adversary ac-customed to success, who expects it, andis obviously unhappy when it doesn'tcome his way. These two men moldedthe living statuary behind the scenes andwere just as much a part of the perform-ance as the players.

This one was a big win for the youngcoach. As Ben Mintz succinctly put it:"Big Red, plagued by fumbles and punt-ing mishaps all season, played errorlessball and cashed in on four Indianfumbles." That bald statement says itbut it doesn't explain it. Some policydecisions had to be made.

To try and protect against puntingerrors the Cornell strategy was to punton third down. This was a conservativeand a somewhat dreary maneuver butit saved calamity in this outing.

The Cornell coaches had made lifemiserable for the squad in making themfumble-conscious. Seven times in theother games the ball was fumbled away,almost always in territory which led toenemy scores. In this game Dartmouthfumbled four times and red jerseys cameflying in as though attracted by a giantmagnet. They even fought each otherfor the ball. Result: Four recoveries,two of which led to Cornell TD's. Andto protect against our own fumbling thestrategy was to sacrifice variety in of-

fense to play the ball close to the bellyand keep ball handling to the barestminimum. Result: No Cornell fumbles.

Halfway in the fourth quarter, withthe score at 27-15 for Cornell, fullbackBill Wilson—an outstanding performer—carried the ball on 14 of 20 plays. TheRed held the ball for eight long minutesand wound up scoring another TD. Itjust punched it out in a grinding, clock-killing way, featured by three fourthdown plays which went for first downs.And it was capped by a dancing,pirouetting touchdown scamper by thatmercurial little halfback, Bob Baker,who went over from the four with sixseconds to go.

Prior to that Coach Blackman hadgiven the word for Dartmouth to gambleand go for the first down on two fourthdown situations and they missed. Thesewere critical, for this Dartmouth teamcould be dynamic on offense as it showedon its electrifying scoring plays. The big,tough Red line did not give it muchchance. Cornell had the ball on 71 of-fensive plays to Dartmouth's 48.

On Dartmouth's fourth down attemptthat failed on the 27 in the fourthquarter, it was an "isolation buck" asthe football phrasemakers call it. It hadworked for a nice five-yard gain earlierin the game. The two halfbacks line uptandem behind the quarterback andthey smash into the center of the line,expectedly isolating the backers and thefullback with the ball follows in the gap.The gap was filled this time by backer-up Gene Pegnetter who had seen thisplay before and was not about to befooled again. He sidestepped the half-back, reached around and threw fullbackPaul Klungess for a one-yard loss. Thiswas a big play.

Cornell had seen too many success-ful Dartmouth rallies to let up this time.In Tom Harp's three years he had lostto the Greenies 15-14, 28-21, and 12-7and each time they came on to win in thefourth quarter. It was quite evident thatCoach Blackman figured it should al-

Cornell Alumni News

ways be that way. He was visibly upsetwhen the game was over, complainingabout the manners of our players, I'mtold. And he had been so nice after thenine previous games that he had won.

It was a hard, clean game, typical ofCornell-Dartmouth games over theyears. Only one major penalty on eachside, Dartmouth for holding, Cornell forclipping. The clipping occurred on a 60-yard pass play, Quarterback MartySponaugle to Baker which went all theway, only to be called back. It wascapitalized a few plays later.

Too bad, of course, to alienate any ofour cherished Dartmouth friends, butwhatever it was that annoyed Robertshould be catalogued for future use.

Young Master Harp was happy any-way. Conservatism is not one of hischaracteristics but it won for him. Histeam had shown spirit and fortitude allseason in spite of many misadventures.That gave him solace. The Dartmouthgame gave him faith in himself again,something he was beginning to doubt.He turned the ripe old age of 37 threedays after the game. Funny thing, helooked 10 years younger than he didthree days before when he was 36.

There seemed to be a lot more peoplereferring to him as a good coach afterthe game than I'd noticed before. Ithink he is too, but I plan to bring alongmy prayer shawl to Princeton just thesame.

Bad

Break

FootballBY C THE SIDELINER'

Almost every sport has shown im-provement over the last month. Foot-ball, though 3-4-1 prior to the season'sfinale with the new Ivy League cham-pion—undefeated Princeton, has suf-fered from an almost incredible run ofbad breaks.

Yale 23, Cornell 21

Smarting from the 16-0 defeat at thehands of a Harvard team that it had

December 1964

outplayed, the Red treated a Homecom-ing crowd of 18,000 to a score after nineplays.

Bob Baker '65 returned the openingkickofΐ to our forty-five. With quarter-back Bill Abel '67 directing the attackin the absence of the injured MartySponaugle '66, the Red stayed on theground with Pete Larson '67 scoring ona fourth and one from the Eli twenty.

Yale, however, took advantage of Redfumbles to march forty-nine and thirty-eight yards to lead 14-7 with 1:22 leftin the first half.

Baker, having just missed going all theway with the opening kickofT, here re-turned Yale's Chuck Mercein's kickninety yards as Larson set him free witha beautiful block. When George Arangio'65 converted, the score was tied 14-14.

With Quarterback Ed McCarthypassing to his big ends over the smallerRed defenders, Yale moved to the Redthirty-three, which was close enough forMercein to kick a 49-yard field goal asthe half ended.

After a scoreless third quarter, wing-back Baker connected with end DickWilliams '65 on a fourth and seventeenscoring pass from the Eli eighteen andthe upset-minded Red led 21-17 withtwelve minutes left.

Three minutes later, Yale movedclose enough for Mercein to cut the gapto 21-20 with a 46-yard, cross-countryplacement.

Following the kickoff, the Red werefaced with a fourth down situation ontheir own 41. Here one of the mostbizarre plays of this bizarre game setthe stage for Mercein's decisive thirdfield goal.

Center Joe Ryan ^65 snapped lowand punter Dudley Kaufman '66 had togo down on one knee to field the ball,thus giving Yale possession on the spot,the Cornell twenty-eight.

Yale got as far as the Red thirteen,but, when their drive was halted, Mer-cein's kick from the twenty gave thevisitors the lead and eventual victory.

The Red's ground defense was againoutstanding holding Yale to 55 yardsnet rushing, Mercein himself gained 60.However, the Yale passing attack andMercein's kicking were enough to takeadvantage of the opportunities pre-sented.

Cornell 57, Columbia 20

After Cornell and Columbia had keptthe 10,000 fans at New York's Baker

Field in a frenzy for a free-scoringthirty minutes, Cornell came out andplayed an almost perfect second halfand set an Ivy League record in rout-ing the Lions 57-20.

Bob Baker took the opening kickofΐseventy-eight yards to the Lion fourteen.From here the Red scored on five playswith fullback Bill Wilson '66 going overfrom the one.

Columbia scored almost as easily, astheir fine quarterback, Archie Roberts,ran forty-five yards to set up the touch-down which, with the PAT, gave theLions a 7-6 edge.

Pete Larson got the lead back forCornell ten seconds later as he returnedthe kickofT ninety-four yards and Bakerpassed to Williams for a two-point con-version to give Cornell a 14—7 lead.Three minutes later Wilson scored fromthe four to cap a 56-yard four playdrive.

Roberts cut most of the Red's leadaway a minute later as he passed toGene Thompson for a 56-yard score andthe Red led 20-14 after 10:50.

Three minutes into the second quarterRoberts connected with Roger Dennison a 27-yard touchdown pass and theLions were back in the game 28-20.This, however, was their final score ofthe day.

At halftone Red Coach Tom Harprealigned his defenses, spreading his endsand tackles to get a more effective passrush. The strategy worked to perfectionand the harried Roberts spent most ofthe remainder of Columbia's offensiveplays scrambling for his life as the Redpoured through his outmanned block-ers. The Lions managed a total offenseof only six yards net in the half.

After eleven scoreless minutes of thethird quarter, the injured Marty Spon-augle returned to action and ran aroundleft end and the Red led 35-20 afterArangio's conversion.

Two minutes into the final quarter,Red tackle Dave Hanlon '66 fell on afumble on the Lion thirty-four. Eightplays later, Larson swept end from theone for his third touchdown and theRed was home free.

Staying on the ground, the Redmoved at will as reserve fullback EdWeideman '67 and Able scored on one-yard plunges to break Princeton's week-old Ivy League scoring record of fifty-five points.

Cornell rolled up 283 yards net rush-ing with Wilson netting ninety-nine.Able, who shared the quarterbackingwith Sponaugle, called his second finegame as the Red squad turned in whathas to be one of the most impressive per-formances in Cornell football history.

Brown 31, Cornell 28

The bad breaks and bizarre happen-ings returned to haunt Cornell as it fellbefore Brown at Providence.

With enough of a running attack tokeep the Cornell defenses honest, theBruins relied on the aerial as their bigweapon.

Brown scored first early in the secondquarter, but Cornell came right back totie the score as Marty Sponaugle cappeda 68-yard drive by scoring the first of histhree touchdowns and Arangio con-verted.

Cornell forced the Bruins to puntfrom their own seven following the kick-off. Taking over on the Bruin thirty-eight, Sponaugle handed off to Baker

22

who then passed to Sponaugle behindthe Brown defenders along the rightsideline and the Red led 14-7 with 2:30left in the half.

Less than a minute later, Jim Dundaand Bill Carr teamed up on a 55-yardtouchdown bomb and the score was tied.

With the half seconds from its con-clusion, a fourth down punt attemptagain brought disaster to the Red as thecenter snap from Lou Ferraro '65 flewover the head of punter Kaufman, whofell on the loose ball on the Red eight.

The Bruins' left-footed kicker TomMennell just had enough time to beatthe gun, and ultimately the Red, with a13-yard field goal to give Brown a 17-14half time edge.

The scoring continued to come fastand furious in the second half as Bakerscampered seven yards and Arangioadded his third conversion to give theRed a shortlived 21-17 lead.

After Brown went seventy yards totake the lead back at 24-21, Sponaugledirected the Red on a 68-yard drivewhich he capped with a one-yard sneak.

Following an exchange of fumblesand stalled drives, Bob Hall's desperationpass to Carr saw the Red safety JimDockerty '66 lose his footing on an inter-ception try and crash into another Reddefender. The amazed Carr suddenlyfound himself with the football andwithout anyone between him and thegoal line and raced in to complete the54-yard play.

Captain Clarence Jentes '65 recovereda fumble on the Bruin forty-six withfifty seconds left. Sponaugle managedto get off six passes and bring the Redto the Bruin seventeen for an apparentthird and two with fifteen seconds left.Baker's option pass fell incomplete andArangio came in to try for the tyingfield goal only to find that Brown hadthe ball. The previous play was fourthdown, the score board operator havingbeen caught in the hectic events.

Baker gained the weekly All-Eastteam for his performance that saw himaccount for 301 yards, (118 rushing,thirty-eight passing, seventy-two receiv-ing and seventy-three returning kicks).Sponaugle joined Larson and nine otherCornellians who have scored three timesin a game.

Cornell 33, Dartmouth 15

Cornell was finally on the winningend as justice triumphed over sanity inthe final 1964 game at Schoellkopf be-fore a Fall Weekend crowd of 16,000.

Most observers had figured Dart-

mouth, the Ivy's top offensive team, tobe too much for the Red, but the Cor-nellians turned in a tremendous effortand made the necessary breaks to gainthe first Cornell victory over Dartmouthsince 1954.

The Green started fast as Jack Mc-Lean raced fifty-three yards up the mid-dle on their fifth offensive play. Trail-ing 7-0 in the opening minutes of thesecond quarter, Cornell linebacker GenePegnetter '65 recovered a Dartmouthfumble on the Red forty-seven. Stayingon the ground, the Red drove to theone. Wilson bulled into the end zoneand Arangio converted to tie the score.

Following the kickoff, Cornell's DudKaufman bounced on a Green fumbleon the nineteen. Six plays later Wilsonscored his second touchdown, this timefrom the two.

With 1:05 left in the half, Red de-fensive back John Scullin '65 inter-cepted a pass on the Dartmouth thirty-two and returned it to the ten. Aftergetting two yards up the middle, Spon-augle circled right end for the score.Larson passed to Baker for the two ex-tra points and Cornell led 21-7 at thehalf.

Dartmouth again started fast as MikeUrbanic capped a 76-yard drive fromthe kickoff by scampering ten yards upthe middle to cut the gap to 21-15 fol-lowing a two point conversion.

End Stu Fullerton '67 returned theensuing short kickoff to the Red fortyfrom where Sponaugle hit Baker onwhat looked like a 60-yard scoring pass.A clipping penalty brought the playback to the Green twenty-seven. Bakertook the opportunity to show his versa-tility by hitting Larson with a 24-yardpass. A play later Wilson became thethird Cornellian in three games to scorethrice and the Red led 27-15.

After stopping the visitors twice insidetheir thirty, Cornell ran out the clock onan eight-minute, 21-play, 71-yard drivewhich Baker capped by skirting left endwith six seconds left. Wilson carriedfourteen times on this drive; in all, hegained seventy-nine yards in twenty-sixtries.

Baker, who should receive strong sup-port for All-Ivy, had another fine game,accounting for 153 yards.

The 1964 footballers are a far betterteam than their 3-4—1 record would in-dicate.

four weeks. In fact with any luck, they,

too, could have done better.

After a 5-2 defeat by Yale lowered

their record to 0-4-1 and extended their

winless streak to 15, the booters rose up

and routed Columbia 4-0 at New York.

Bruce Cohen '66 scored three times

and assisted George Fretz '65 as goalie

December 1964

Don Haies '66 blanked the Lions.

A week later, the Red finished Brown's

hopes of repeating as Ivy League Cham-

pions by tying the Bruins 3-3.

Seth Dei '67 and Cohen gave the Red

a 2-0 lead in the third period only to

have the Bruins tie the score. Bill Hook,

who scored the equalizer, put the Bruins

ahead 3-2 after 4:21 of the overtime.

Cohen, however, scored his second to

gain Cornell a tie.

A goal by Dartmouth's Gil Smoyer

with twelve seconds left in regulation

time allowed the same Mr. Smoyer to

score the goal that gave the Indians a

4-3 win. The goal came with only twen-

23

ty-two seconds left in the second over-time period.

Bruce Cohen, the top scorer in the IvyLeague, tallied twice and assisted DanPalm '65 as Cornell built up a 3-0 leadin the third period.

Although their record is 1-5-2, CoachLace and his Cornellians can be proudof their 1964 season for it marked thefirst time in years that Cornell showeditself capable of beating anyone in theIvy League. Victory should come oftenin the future.

Lightweight FootballFaced with the impossible task of re-

building while facing the top threeteams in the league on the first threeweekends, Coach Bob Cullen and hislightweight footballers have reboundedto win their last two games to stand 2-3with a chance to even their record atPrinceton in the season's finale.

The running and passing of RickeFricke '67 led the Red by Columbia13-6 to give the Cornellians their initial1964 victory.

Against Penn, Tom Cummings '66got the Red started early with a 52-yardscoring run.

The Red opened the game up as Cap-tain Richie Rosen scampered twenty-five yards to mount the score to 14-0following a two-point conversion.

In the second half, the game turnedinto a rout as Fricke scored on a roll-outand Frank Allgauer '66 passed to RickEnglestein '65 and scored himself.

An interesting note was that theteam's manager Bill Vanneman '65, theolder brother of varsity tackle Reeve'67, kicked the last three extra points inhis initial attempts of the season. Theboys are sons of William M. '31 andgrandsons of C. Reeve '03.

Junior Varsity FootballA second loss to Colgate in a hard

fought 14-6 contest at Hamilton evenedthe jayvee's record at 2-2 going into theseason's finale at Princeton.

The second win of the season cameover Ithaca College. Trailing 7-0 in thesecond quarter, Ron Gervase '67 gotthe Red on the Scoreboard with a five-yard roll-out run. John Berenigen '67evened the game with his conversion.

The score stayed even until the finalquarter, when Mike Moore '67 plungedin from the one to break the deadlock.

Following the kickofF Joe Homicz '67,a linebacker, picked off an IC pass andreturned it fifty yards to give the Red thenecessary insurance touchdown as the

24

losers scored in the game's waningminutes.

Cross Country

Graduation losses riddled the defend-ing Heptagonal champions this year asthe harriers finished with a 1-5 markand a seventh place finish in defense oftheir title.

Yale was the Red's only victim as JimStraub and Corydon Byard both '66took second and third respectively.

In the Heps, Byard's 23rd was the bestthe Red could do as Navy captured thechampionship.

Freshman Football

After losing their opener to Penn, theRed frosh didn't allow any of their nextfour opponents to score a touchdown.Manlius, which beat the Army plebesthe week before, ended the Red's de-fensive and victory streaks in the sea-son's finale.

After blanking East Stroudsberg 12-0,the frosh edged Yale 7-3, when tackleChris Reeves pounced on a fumble inthe end zone on the Bullpup's first playafter they had held the Red on fourplays from the one.

The Red's stout defense paced by fourpass interceptions—two each by BillMurphy and Rich Musmanno—heldthe Eli's scoreless except for Jerry K,in-ney's 44-yard field goal.

Defense was the key at Princeton, too,as the Red first prevented the Tiger'sfrom scoring after Cornell fumbles andthen after the Red opened up a 12-0lead on scoring runs by Chris Ritter andBill Hurling, Randy Bus intercepted apass and raced twenty-five yards into theend zone for the clincher. Another in-terception set up a 26-yard pass to Busfor the final Red points.

The Red ran its touchdownless de-fensive streak to four in blanking Col-gate 10-0. Chris Ritter capped a 60-yard drive with a one-yard plunge andMike Underwood converted and laterbooted a 32-yard field goal for thegame's only scoring.

Manlius, however, was another story,wiping out the Red's 15-14 lead on a50-yard pass play in the final moments.

Quarterback Dick Brown raced sixyards to score in the third quarter andpassed to Chris Ritter in the final quar-ter for the Red's final tally.

Although the final game was a heart-breaker, the 1964 frosh gave Coach TedThoren another fine season and offeredplenty of promise for future Cornellfootball,

THEALUMNIWRITE

The "Happening" AgainEDITOR: Someone should investigate the in-cidence of loss of memory among alumniwho attended Cornell prior to 1930, usingthe comparative silliness of student shenani-gans, then and now, as a check. I choosethat base period because I was here in 1915-16 as a graduate student, 1919-1925 as thewife of a graduate student, and I had bro-thers in the classes of 1917, 1922 and 1923.I was in an excellent position to observe stu-dent activities of the time.

As I remember it, those were the days ofreally outstanding shenanigans. If Cornellmen of that vintage have drawn a blank ontheir own colorful extra-curricular goings-

28

on, their boards of directors, stockholders,constituents, clients and patients should bewarned of their affliction.

My concern has been aroused because somany in the age group were upset by the"Happening" of 1964, when a couple ofhundred students, much less than 2% ofthe enrollment, engaged in a so-called artis-tic effort at the city dump.

In the first place, my spies tell me, a fewof them may have been serious, but the restwent along to spoof the whole thing. Witnessthe ketchup and the jam. But in the secondplace, / remember clearly the Freshman-Sophomore Mud Rushes, circa 1913-1930,when about half of the male population ofCornell dedicated a Saturday morning everyspring to the noble purpose of tearing eachothers' clothes to shreds and smearing eachother with mud right spang on the campus!For a few years the "Rush" took place onthe Armory Green—but was later transferredto what would one day be Hoy Field. Wereyou there, Mr. Graver? Dr. Brane? Andreally now, wouldn't the city dump havebeen a more appropriate spot for suchgoings-on?

Probably most alumni are too young toremember. The "tradition" had to be dis-continued many years ago. It became toomuch of a strip tease, even for a broadminded university. Well—for those whocame in late—it was the final clash betweenFrosh and Sophs who had been clashing upand down State Street all year. (Anothershenanigan that has died out, thank heaven.)If nature did not send rain, fire hoses gushedfor hours to soak the ground to swamp con-ditions. The two classes were divided intoseveral teams of fifty men each. The teamstook turns having at each other from op-posite sides of the field and battling happilyin the quagmire for a specified time. ProctorTweston signalled the beginning and end ofeach round by shooting off his revolver. Theevent drew hundreds of spectators whosometimes got a side show as a bonus.

One such occasion occurred the year thedate of the Rush coincided with the annualPoppy Sale sponsored by the AmericanLegion Auxiliary. Pretty girls in prettyfrocks and wide hats circulated in thecrowd selling the posies. Suddenly, out ofthe fray, burst a contender, who headed attop speed for the showers. He was clad in athick coat of mud. Nothing else. One of thePoppy Girls, hearing his footsteps behindher, turned and automatically went into hersales pitch, "Don't you want to buy apoppy?" They both fled—in opposite direc-tions—while several dozen onlookerslaughed themselves helpless—my husbandand I among them!

So—I leave it to all alumni. Which issillier? A handful of students smearing apiece of junk with jam in the name of Art,or hundreds of them smearing each otherwith mud in the name of Cornell spirit—orwhatever? From the statistics of partici-pants, at least, the mud smearers seem tohave it by a wide margin. When you con-sider that twice in his college career everyCornell man was urged to turn his talentsto mud smearing, the figures really take anupswing. 1964's "Happening" pales by com-parison.

One more point—I have heard some re-cent student comment on the antics of some

of the alumni at Homecomings and Re-unions. They are amazed that responsibleold duffers, out of college 25 to 50 years,should behave that way. Anyone else careto speak to that point? I could furnishpertinent material. But would it be fair tojudge the entire alumni body by the she-nanigans of a few on those occasions? Oreven to use that criterion to judge the valueof these few to their professions and com-munities the rest of the time?

I don't think it would, any more than it isfair to judge a whole student body by theactions of a few. Finally, I want to go onrecord on a more important matter thaneither student or alumni shenanigans.

Ithaca has been my home since 1940.From 1943 to 1959 I was on the Cornellstaff, in a position where I knew hundredsof students. In my opinion we have had ahigher percentage of intelligent, clear think-ing, far sighted, hard working young peopleon campus in the past twenty years thanbetween 1915 and 1925 when I was also anadult, in a position to evaluate studentquality. If I had any money to leave to auniversity, Cornell would get it.

Leave the Driving to UsEDITOR : Through the efforts of a committeeof the Cornell Alumni Association of NewYork City we prevailed upon Greyhound torun an express bus from the terminal in NewYork City directly to Willard Straight onFriday, October 23 and from WillardStraight on Sunday, October 25, the Home-coming week-end. The service was excellentand the trips very enjoyable.

I commend to other alumni the use of thispublic transportation facility for futureHomecoming week-ends and class Reunions.Greyhound has expressed its willingness toprovide direct express service whenever oc-casions in Ithaca create sufficient demandfor it. Moreover, I recommend that studentsbe encouraged to use this very efficient pub-lic transportation rather than clutter up thecampus with cars.

I believe that Greyhound has come torecognize its responsibility to maintain goodservice to and from Ithaca and it would bea pity if lack of student and alumni interestwould cause it, too, to give up the ghost, asdid the Lehigh and the Lack.

New York —H. BERNARD KAYE '25

Complaint from YaleDIRECTOR OF ATHLETICS: Yesterday at theYale game I was an occupant of the standprovided for visiting team rooters.

At the end of the first half I crawled myway out and found myself at the end of along line waiting to use your toilet facilities.By the time I emerged seven minutes of thesecond half had been played. (My wife tookfour minutes longer).

Enclosed herewith is my check for five dol-lars. It is my hope that this may start a fundwhereby arrangements may be made for therental of "Johnnies on the Spot", which Iam sure would be warmly welcomed by thesupporters of visiting teams.

He and all classmateswill be happy to learn that early in Octoberat the Cornell Club of New York, WilliamMarcussen, Abraham Doris, LawrenceBandler, and Jac Holman held a prelimi-nary meeting to lay the ground work forthe Reunion.

Wilmar A. Dehuff, after retiring as prin-cipal of the Baltimore Polytechnic Institute,is now serving as dean of the faculty of theU of Baltimore, a private non-profit uni-versity, the third largest in the State ofMaryland — 5,000 students.

Each fall, Harry St. John comes northto visit his son Harry Jr. '42, at Hatfordand his daughter living at Warwick, R.I.So while he was in Warwick, he and yourcorrespondent had a grand get-together.

Richard C. Upton writes from 3003 S.Lakeshore Dr., Lexington, Mich., that hehas retired from business.

Lee Uhl, 1524 Roselawn Ave., Lansing,Mich., writes that he and his lovely wife,Shirley, enjoyed a beautiful summer at alake in Northern Michigan. They plan tobe with us in 1966 at Ithaca. WilliamGuthrie (Pack) Packard, 420 N. CascadeAve., Colorado Springs, Colo., reports thathe spends his summers at the above ad-dress, and moves down to Arizona for thewinters. Pack attended our 50th Reunion,and hopes to be on hand for our 55th. He

A number of the class were privilegedand fortunate to attend gatherings at Cor-nell in October. At the Centennial Convo-cation, Dinner, and weekend program, thefollowing represented 1912: Floyd andHelen Newman, Fritz Krebs, Charles Col-man and his wife. In addition, these enjoyedthe victory over Penn: George Ashton, CarlCrandall, Franklin Holland, Jack Magoun,Phil Sainburg, and George Wakeley. A rec-ord was established by Jack Magoun inattending 56 consecutive Cόrnell-Penn foot-ball games; and he was honored for hisloyalty by being presented with the foot-ball of the winning team that day.

Two weeks later, the 1912 Get-Together,Homecoming, and Cornell-Yale gamebrought another enthusiastic group of TheFamous Class, who assembled for dinnersFriday and Saturday evenings. With theirwives were: Dale Carson, Si Crounse,Charlie Davidson, Walt Kuhn, and PhilSainburg. Others were: Mrs. (Donald C.)Gwendolyn Kerr '39, Charles Colman, FritzKrebs, Les McKendrick with his grand-daughter, Susan Hathaway '67, and severalguests. Jack Stoddard and wife were inIthaca for the game, visiting with friends.

More than passing notice should be takenof the death of our Ross W. Kellogg in Oc-tober. The Class lost one of its most de-voted, enthusiastic, and unselfish workers.Without denial, credit and praise are givento Ross for his great part in arousing theinterest in such a large percentage of theclass, which resulted in our outstanding rec-ords on all occasions. Ross created and en-couraged the air of friendship which we all

shared and enjoyed with profit. He wasclass secretary for its first 25 years, andlater class biographer and editor of "TheOn-to-Ithaca Gazette," of which he was thefirst editor. The success of our 50th Reunionwas due to his great contribution of arous-ing everybody's interest by writing personalletters — starting with a goal of 200, heended with a count of over 300. After that,Ross's health failed and now his going is ablessing. It is a great loss; but we take muchpride in his accomplishments of which 1912was the benefactor.

For the last five years Stanley White of1080 Sherman St., Denver, Colo., has beenenjoying retirement from teaching land-scape architecture at the U of Illinois. In anewsy letter Stan writes:

" I dawdle a lot, but enjoy the fewsquare inches of view out of the apart-ment window, which now shows 100square miles of snow-field on the GreatContinental Divide, 14,250 feet above.Every few months I get out on tour to theschools and garden clubs, showing themcolor slides of the American Scene, andvisiting the seminars and classrooms. Thelast time I was with a crowd of Ί2ers, Iwas leading a cow in the Spring Dayparade over 50 years ago. But I got backto Ithaca once, in November 1959, whenthey gave me all of the design time of asection of 20 fourth-year architects forthree weeks to do as I pleased. The kidswere very nice to me and I thought theywere wonderful. Possibly all I ever showedthem was how light falls on surfaces —which is what ties all the designs together,and is now what is missing in the arts."

Stan sadly reports the death of hisbrother, Albert H. White, age 76.

Others are rinding retirement pleasant.Richard L. Mann in Charlottesville, Va.,says: " I lead the simple life, working in myshop and playing golf. Last year I shot ascore equal to my age then — 75." StephenC. Hale, 2042 Cortez Ave., Vero Beach,Fla., is retired from being a grower oforanges and grapefruit and likes the South-ern scene with his family.

George B. Filbert of 119 Bender Ave.,Roselle Park, N.J., uses his residence ad-dress now. Having retired in 1952, he doesnot get into his former New York office toooften. "Mrs. Filbert and I are trying to 'SeeAmerica First.' This year we drove to Cali-fornia, Oregon, and Washington, and homevia the Trans-Canada Highway in June andJuly, so missed the 52nd Reunion. Myyounger friends tell me: 'Be careful andtake it easy'; and my older friends say: 'Gowhile you can.'

William D. Haselton and Felix Sachs areenjoying things in Tucson, Ariz.; and CarlNewlander and Herbert Switzer in Sara-sota, Fla.; and Lloyd Snodgrass in nearbyBradenton.

Others are not flagging in spirit and in-terest, but unfortunately have some physicaldifficulties. Dr. Harold C. Sands is laid upin Braker Memorial House, 183rd St. &3rd Ave., New York, but sends regards.Benjamin F. Betts of Cornwall Bridge,Conn., has had operations on both eyes forcataracts, but comes up smiling. JosephKastner Jr., of Harbor Road, Chatham,Mass., must keep close to home because ofthe illness of his wife, but finds time towork on the Centennial Campaign on CapeCod.

John D. Denney, MD, 30 S. Second St.,Columbia, Pa., and his wife have just re-turned from a trip to Europe. They flewto Oslo, Norway, visiting with friends inthe rural country about Oslo Fjord, flewto Paris and then to Heidelberg. ThereDoc rented a car and they made a leisurelytrip of some 2,500 miles, mostly in Germanyand Austria, concentrating on the older andmore medieval towns in the back country,away from the beaten paths of the touristhordes. They ended up with a delightfulvisit with some American friends, longresidents of Germany.

Robert I. Ashman, RD 2, Augusta, Me.,who retired in 1957 as head of the Depart-ment of Forestry, U of Maine, has con-tinued to be active in his profession eversince. He is president of the U of MaineForestry and Wildlife Alumni Assn., chair-man of the Maine Forest Products Councillegislative committee, and on the board oftrustees, Maine Chapter of Nature Con-servancy. In spite of all these activities andhonors, he is a "tree" farmer, managinghis own forest lands. He has three daugh-ters, all married, eight grandchildren andthree great-grandchildren. Son R. I.

Barrett L. Crandall, who for severalyears was a reporter on the Ithaca Journal,is now advertising manager of the Wash-ington Redskins. He was in Ithaca on theweekend of Aug. 22 for the Giants-Red-skins exhibition game.

We continue to receive favorable com-ments about our big 50th Reunion, tuckedaway amid news items of interest. Jesse S.Brown, 131 Farley Ave., Fanwood, N.J.,wrote in June that they were still talkingabout "our fine Reunion get-together a yearago." Two of their grandchildren, (a boyin high school and a girl in college), visitedFrance and Switzerland this past summerto work and study on Exchange Studentprograms.

C. Pomeroy Goree Jr. (3660 PeachtreeRoad, NE, Atlanta, Ga.), otherwise knownas "Roy," and his wife, enjoyed every min-ute of their stay in Ithaca attending our50th Reunion and hope to attend our 55th.That's the spirit, Roy! On Jan. 1 he com-pleted his 50th year with the Frick Co. ofWaynesboro, Pa. During that time he de-signed and sold hundreds of ice-making,food-freezing, cold-storage, air-condition-ing and refrigerating plants, and is still ac-tively working for the same company on afull-time basis. They have ten grand-children, five boys and five girls.

George Fowler, Poughkeepsie, thinks wehad a fine Reunion and his wife "still tellseveryone what a fine time she had." Nomore grandchildren and no great-grand-children. Ralph Brown, 85 Pine St., Mill-burn, N.J., reports "nothing new since thewonderful Reunion." And P. G. McVetty"surely did enjoy those three days inIthaca" at our 50th. Mac is still trying tofigure out whether they moved the Libraryor moved Sibley to make them so muchfarther apart now than they were 50 shortyears ago.

Stan Clark, of St. Joseph, Mo., who didso much to get our veterinarian contingentback for Reunion, sent me a color snapshotof "Shorty" Goldberg and me taken at theOnondaga Regatta; Shorty looked fine.Stan had mentioned a letter he had receivedfrom Alfred Savage, of Winnipeg, Mani-toba, and enclosed it, as promised. I thinkyou'll agree that it's quite a letter.

"My dear Clark,—"Very many thanks for yours of the

15th, last, concerning the class Reunion.It renews one's youth and takes him backto a point in time whence a lot of detailscannot be recalled clearly. They havefaded. Things like that happen in thecourse of 50 years!

"For most of us the event of 1914 wasgraduation. Then, on Aug. 4, the 'first'war started. I stayed out until the springof '15 when I joined the Canadian ArmyVeterinary Corps. At a military camp inQuebec I got anthrax in two fingers doingan autopsy on a horse. Damn near died.(Neither sulphas nor antibiotics in thosedays!) Eventually some anti-serum arrivedfrom Philadelphia, probably by ox cart.Methinks there was a pint of it. I got theworks. Fine print on the bottle wrappercontained a nicely worded announcementthat so many horses were producing anti-tetanic serum, that this stuff was madefrom mules! Suspect I may be the onlyvet. in captivity who can claim, literally,to have mule blood in him — either in hiscirculation or his pedigree.

"Overseas in '16 and promptly attachedto a field artillery brigade (under a won-derful gunner). Saw action at a few niceplaces like Ypres, the Somme, and VimyRidge. Crocked out with the flu andlanded at Le Havre where there was aCanadian Veterinary Hospital. Wonder-ful experience with all kinds of cases: waschief of surgery for about a year. Acouple of Cornell men blew in one day andI was so surprised I have forgotten theirnames! The armistice caught me there.Had not seen a whole city drunk at onetime before. It sure happened then.

"Went academic on return. Staff job atan agricultural college near Montreal anda rather nice practice too — mostly dairyherds belonging to city multinaires. Winni-peg in 1921, pretty much the same thingbut no practice. Got a stale feeling in '27and went to Edinburgh for refreshment.MRCVS in '28.

"During the '30s, everything hereaboutswent at least part way to the dogs. Iwas elected dean of agriculture at theUniversity. That kept us busy for a fewyears. Then came 'sleeping sickness' ofhorses. The province commissioned me toisolate the virus and identify our brandof it. Did same. Appointed provincial ani-mal pathologist in consequence. Thus twojobs. The gov't. retired me 9 years ago(age) and the U has just made me anemeritus professor. Last June I was madea FELLOW of the Royal College of

Cornell Alumni News

To Cornell Alumnae . . .• It all began in Boston on April 10,1892, when six alumnae met at theGhauncy Hall School to form an AlumnaeAssociation. By 1895, the name of theorganization became the Cornell WomenGraduates' Association, and in 1909 TheFederation of Cornell Women's Clubs.The governing body of the Federation isits Executive Committee consisting of thepresident, three vice presidents, the secre-tary, the treasurer, five directors, and thechairman of the Scholarship Awards Com-mittee. The annual meeting is held inJune in Ithaca the weekend of Class Re-unions and a mid-winter meeting is heldin New York City.

You are urged to use membership in theFederation as your link with the campusand as a rewarding service to Cornell. The41 Cornell Women's Clubs which dot thecountry can give you good fellowship,happy times, a challenging job. You cangive them your enthusiasm and the benefitof your experience at Cornell and in thecommunity.

You may feel you would like to help inthe Federation's Secondary Schools pro-gram—a real contribution of the Clubs inmaintenance of close relationships withguidance counsellors—in order that themost promising applicants may be at-tracted to Cornell.

The Federation Scholarship Endow-ment Fund now provides superior girlswith demonstrated need, annual gifts to-taling over $6,600 toward their Cornelleducation. Since 1941, 46 undergraduates

have been Federation Scholars.Your help is needed in publicizing Cor-

nell in your community. You may havea flair for planning social affairs, or havea sure-fire method of increasing member-ship. There is a definite need—and a placefor all your talents in a Cornell Club.

Even if you do not have time to workactively on a committee, your affiliationwith the club and attendance at meetingswill be most welcome.

All the Cornell Clubs and their officersare listed in this issue of the ALUMNINEWS. If you do not find a club in yourvicinity, write to the Alumnae Secretary,Day Hall for the names of alumnae nearyou.

President James A. Perkins, in his mes-sage to the Federation of CornellWomen's Clubs said:

"Cornell is a great institution, andCornell women have helped to make itgreat. As we finish the first century andembark on the second hundred years ofthe University, I count on you and otherCornell alumnae to continue to work tokeep Cornell in the forefront of Americanuniversities."

There need be no break, upon yourgraduation, in your association with Cor-nell—only a change in its character. TheFederation gives you the opportunity—and you are invited—to continue yourparticipation in the life of the universityas an alumna.

Xmas recalls the Anniversary Song: "It'sa very short while from May to December—and you haven't time for the waitinggame." Make this New Year's resolution:"Will be at Donlon Hall, Ithaca, Thursday,June 10, 1965." And keep that date! Youbelong to an historic Championship Class—the only class that can ever celebrate its50th Reunion coincidentally with the Uni-versity's 100th anniversary.

March 6 is another date to keep—if youcan—at the annual class gathering at Ft.Myers Beach, Fla., where Art Wilson, GilTerriberry, Mrs. D. Haff, et al. are nowarranging a special program for the citrusand sunshine set. Bathing (bikinis, si; top-less, no!), plus boating and fishing will beavailable for the record number of class-mates expected on the Florida Gold Coastthis winter. (Discovery of quantities ofsunken treasure—millions in ancient goldcoins—in the sands and coves of the Ft.Pierce area adds one more chance forgolden memories.)

The "kick-off" Centennial celebrationevent at Ithaca, Oct. 9, relayed by closed

circuit TV to waiting crowds at the Wal-dorf and Biltmore in New York, stirreddeeply the pride of every watching Cornellalumnus. Some 150 educators were in theprocession of dignitaries from all over theworld, including the head of the oldestuniversity (Bologna, Italy), who marchedacross the campus to pay tribute to Cor-nell's accomplishments during her first 100years.

An historic oration by Sir Eric Ashby,Master of Clare College, Cambridge Uni-versity, aptly contrasting the growth andprogress of that university's first 100 years(it was founded in 1200 AD) with Cornell's,will long be remembered for its faith in thefuture of Ezra Cornell's dream come true,"an institution where any student may findinstruction in any subject."

Flying from Davenport, la., Walt Pries-ter and his gracious wife Dorothy stoppedat Ithaca for the Centennial ceremony anda Council meeting, then popped in and outof the Cornell Club with our "man of dis-tinction" from Honolulu, A. Lester Marks.They took in the World's Fair together, justbefore it closed for the winter. The Priestershad recently completed a tour which tookthem back to Garmisch, Germany, wherethey spent their first honeymoon, manymemories ago. They rated it as one of themost restful spots in Europe, after viewingHolland, Denmark, North Germany (WestBerlin), and Switzerland. They flew backto Chicago from Frankfurt.

At the Club, Lester continued his inter-national cribbage tournament with Walt,and firmly established himself as a cham-pion there. He made an interesting observa-tion for a man of his attainments. Having"graduated" from business and retired toranch ownership in Hawaii, he found mostinterest at Ithaca not in his former engi-neering college, but in researching a bit inthe agricultural college.

From San Marino, Calif., some monthsago, Alan Williams wrote that he was alter-ing his proposed trip to Saigon, Laos, andCambodia, replacing this part of his Orienttour with a trip to Taiwan and Formosa,following the Olympic games at Tokyo. Alis busy with his Olympic activities and OldTime Athletes organizations but managesto "keep in touch." He reminds me thatbrother "Doc" Peters '14 and I were thefirst Cornell men he met, going back on theold Northern Pacific "big Idaho potato"route in 1912, and we persuaded him thatCornell was "ready made" for him. (Weunderstand entry is tougher today!). Theseare the memories that make hearts warm atReunions.

Ray Riley's "second call" letters are madenecessary by mail irregularities and non-delivery due to address changes. Dr.John F. Jansen, 58 Hanes St., Al-bany, attended the Ft. Myers partylast March and "found notice in 2ndclass mail on returning home." G. E. Corn-well, PO Box 8, Orlando, Fla., respondedwith, "Many thanks to the wonderful 15'erswho kept my ALUMNI NEWS coming. Manyyears unable to contribute, it now gives mepleasure to do so. Although I do not enjoyrobust health, I look forward to June 1965."

Nelson S. Perkins, 1250 Gravely Lake Dr.,Tacoma, Wash., is still "hoping to get backin '65." He writes, "Sorry to be late but justreturned from ten weeks down south and

Excerpts from class letter . . .Dear Friends of 1915:

Everyday life is in suspense here as wewait out the latest gust Dora, weighingthe alternatives of sending her your way orletting her churn herself into the depthsof the Gulf. The effects in this area havebeen minimum; again the anticipation isthe rough part.

The lull in operations gives me time tosay hello and good-bye to you. Thisshould be my last letter. I turn over thereins to our good Reunion ChairmanSally Jackson and Alma Berry and thenew officers you will elect in June. I amvery grateful for the assistance you havegiven me. Reunion chairmen, fund rep-resentatives and our contributor to theALUMNI NEWS (May you all read it!)have succeeded in keeping our class aunit working for Cornell during our 50years as alumnae. We have much spunkleft in us yet.

Be aware that our class alone can enjoythe honor of combining our 50th with theCentennial of the University. The menare making a big contribution. When therepresentative of your district approachesyou, make one commensurate with yourunderstanding of the educational needs ofour grandchildren and our country. Thosewho have had advantages must be the onesto know the meaning of a drive like Cor-nell's.

Summer is a dull time down south. Mycontacts have been few. A delightful ex-ception was a call on Cecile HardySchlieper at Eagle Lake. You would loveher home, approached through their or-

34

ange grove and with one of its two bigporches looking out on the lake.

She and her husband attended our 1915luncheon at Ft. Myers in the spring. Thatwas a unique affair. We hope there willbe many of you in Florida March 6, 1965,when it will be repeated at Holiday Inn.Get in touch with me. It was the idea andthe execution of Art Wilson, 1915 Men'ssecretary. He lives at Ft. Myers Beach;Ann and Don Reeves live in town.

Now, may you all be blessed with con-tinuing friendships, reasonably goodhealth, and energy for interesting pursuits.

See you at Reunion in June, surely!Boost Sally and Alma in their efforts theyare for you and Cornell.

Affectionately,MILDRED WATT HAFF '15Class Secretary903 60th St., WestBradenton, Fla.

"A funny thing happened to me on myway" to my desk today: I suddenly realizedthat not a single communication had beenaddressed to me since assuming the job ofclass editor. It's always tough on research

people, as well as writers, to find an ab-sence of source material, so to meet a dead-line we'll have to resort to the grab-bag.Fortunately, Harry Byrne turned over tome a conglomeration of material coveringa spacious period. Some of it had beenutilized, and some, I fear, had been over-looked. So, if my jottings are a bit old hat,please forgive what might properly becalled a mish-mash.

Birge Kinne's energetic drive to increasethe number of class-dues-payers continuesunabated. Just recently he addressed anappeal to the 400 members who are notcurrent, emphasizing the need for supportin obtaining capital to get the Reunion onthe tracks prior to June 1965. It does seemmortifying that a class so rich in traditionand broad attainment should be so derelictin its support of this, its almost final effortto demonstrate its renowned prestige. Bynow, you are all no doubt aware that wehave reserved three big dining halls for ourbanquets and dinner; one big dormitory(something special) and an option on asecond, where we can all live together;contracted for our famous Scotch HighlandPiper Band, and considering hiring a secondband for the Saturday parade to make it themost colorful one Cornell has ever seen. So,get with it and back up Al Carpenter andBirge.

Incidentally, the mailman has just rungand here arrives an air-mail letter fromCarp. He has just returned from a holidayat Yosemite and the Sequoia National Park.Beautiful, can't express it, he says. He isplanning to be in Ithaca next June as aguest of 1915, and this, coupled with 1914'sChairman George Kuhlke's generous sug-gestions, should give him a big plus inturning out a good show.

A newsy letter on hand from HarloweHardinge. He says he is not on the retiredlist by any means. Yet he has a residencein York, an apartment in Carmel, Calif,for winter and spring, and a cottage inCanada for warm August. Nice work if onecan get it. Ed Ludwig writes in from VeroBeach telling about the creation of theCornell Club of Eastern Florida whichmeets July, October, and April. Ed is itstreasurer, and checks or inquiries can beaddressed to him at Box 837, Vero Beach,Fla. No charge for this pitch, Ed.

George F. Bettcher tells us that he andFred W. Roberts live within a few blocks ofeach other in Denver, Colo. George is a re-tired architect and Fred a retired civil engi-neer. Both are making plans for Ithaca in1965. Col. Bill Speidel, in West Islip, in-forms us that he returned home after 3V6months in Germany, France, Morocco, andSpain. As an added fillip to one teeteringon travel plans, he recommends Spain forthe easy-going traveler with a lean purse.

Dr. George Bradley has moved to Rome,Ga., from Washington, D.G., after manyyears with the Public Health Service. That'sa big change, George, but the attraction ofa son and four grandchildren in the PeachState makes for quite a magnet.

Hear that Ev Cooke, although half re-tired, still had time for a three months' tripthrough the Panama Canal to Tahiti, Mo-area, Bora Bora, Fiji, Borneo, and an over-land trip in Japan and Hawaii, and he con-tacted Alex Anderson. Pretty good for acountry boy from Wyckoff, N.J. I'd better

Cornell Alumni News

Why Else a University?

The meaning of man:

Humanities demand

a central place

in 'the Cornell idea'

"Prudence and justice are virtues and excellences ofall times and all places; we are perpetually moralists,but we are geometricians only by chance."

—Samuel Johnson

At Goldwin Smith Hall, seat of the humanities atCornell, Dr. Johnson would be delighted to find thespirit of his observation thoroughly adhered to.

He would find undergraduates, their announcedinterest a branch of science or technology, among themost eager students at humanistic lectures designedto ensure that their specialism does not lead.to nar-rowness of mind. And he would find an increasingnumber of those seeking a general education choosinga major in the humanities.

Why this interest in the humanities in an agewhen Cold-War exigencies have forced a massive sci-entific emphasis in education? Presumably, while seek-ing an understanding of nature and her laws and striv-ing to master his environment, man has not lost sightof the need to know and master himself.

Humane study is a consideration of man as a cre-ative being. To put it another way, the humane scholarconcerns himself with man's actions and achievements.The historian studies the actions and achievements andideas of the past. Linguistic scholars consider the ex-pression of actions and ideas in the spoken and writtenword. Philosophers weigh concepts and values, seek-ing to clarify such matters as truth and falsity, prob-ability, right or wrong, good or bad in activities such asscience, religion, morality, or politics. Literature, music,and the fine arts are studied as expressions of man's in-sight, understanding, beauty, and wonder. The purposeof humane study is to enlarge man's views, enrich hismind, awaken his aesthetic sensibilities, and civilize hisbehavior.

Martin Sampson, chairman of English at Cornellforty years ago, once remarked: "The difference betweenArts and the other colleges is that they teach you how tomake money, and we teach you how to spend it."

More seriously, George H. Healey, professor ofEnglish and curator of rare books at Cornell, says thatthe aim of humane teaching is to produce a man who is"a just judge;" someone, whatever his profession, whocan weigh the consequences of his decisions to himselfand others, and act accordingly.

Words and Parkinson's Law

Language, of course, is the humane scholar's in-dispensable tool: the expression of a culture. ButAmericans, it seems, have trouble with the English lan-guage. Business firms complain that their efficiency isendangered by executives who cannot prepare an in-cisive memorandum; professors are known to have pub-lished material that verbosely fails to get its pointacross; the mountains of unintelligible literature issuedfrom government departments are a national joke(though not only in the United States). Administratorswho cannot properly express themselves are the faultytissue that turns Parkinson's Law into a disease.

Max Black, the Susan Linn Sage professor ofphilosophy at Cornell, says, "So much of our currentspeech and literature is simply corrupt. And since wecannot help being identified with our language andbeing judged by it, when we corrupt language we cor-rupt society itself."

Most humane scholars do not, however, set up asteachers of English composition. Benefit doubtless ac-crues to the Cornell undergraduate as he searches hisway through the works of the world's greatest writersand thinkers, and his own prose style should improve.But he must already know how to write, how to formsentences and paragraphs. In studying the humanitiesat Cornell he is learning how to think, how to decide,more than how to write.

Even so, Cornell humanists have had an influenceon American expository prose. Such men as WilliamStrunk Jr., late professor of English at Cornell, devoted

their lives to this highly specialized branch of learning.In the summer of 1957, E. B. White wrote in The NeivYorker magazine about the text book on usage andstyle that he had used when a student at Cornell. It wasProfessor Strunk's "little book," The Elements of Style.Mr. White later wrote an introduction for a new editionof the book.

Professor Strunk's literary axioms included this one:"omit needless words." Unlike the instructions of lessermen, however, his method for weeding out verbiagepermits the faithful student to write not merely forth-rightly, but elegantly.

When the weekly news magazine Time discussedThe Elements of Sttjle in its Education section on July13, 1959, it said: "Behind every writer stands a teacherof some kind. Behind E. B. White himself, it turns out,stands the exhortative ghost of a curious and delightfulman, the late Professor William Strunk, Jr., proprietorof English 8 at Cornell University when White passedthrough 40 years ago."

In his introduction to the new public edition ofthe book, E. B. White said, The Elements of Style "wasWill Strunk's parvum opus, his attempt to cut the vasttangle of English rhetoric down to size and write itsrules and principles on the head of a pin . . . It is aforty-three-page summation of the case for cleanliness,accuracy, and brevity in the use of English. Its vigor isunimpaired, and for sheer pith I think it probably setsa record that is not likely to be broken."

Today's Cornellians, writing their way through thehumanities, may be heartened by the words of WilliamR. Keast, former dean of the College of Arts and Sci-ences, now vice president for academic affairs and pro-fessor of English. In his opinion, undergraduates thesedays have to write too much, hence lack the time prop-erly to develop their style. "Most of our freshmen," addsKeast, "can write rings around the things I wrote whenI was a freshman."

History and a doctor

For any who still question the value of humanestudy to an engineer or scientist, a letter from a formerstudent, received by Frederick G. Marcham, the Gold-win Smith professor of English history, and chairmanof Cornell's History department, should have some in-terest.

The former student, a medical man, writes: ". . .I have been able to sit in on some interviews with psy-chiatric patients. During many of these interviews Ihave often thought back to my experiences in Englishhistory. I really am realizing the importance of listen-ing closely to every word a patient says, observing hisfacial expressions and reactions, and, from the 'evidencepresented' draw my own conclusions and make my

own interpretations. What someone else says in booksabout a classical psychotic or schizophrenic means solittle. Every individual case is so different and requiresso much of your own thinking and interpretation basedon careful observation and examination of the directevidence at hand.

"You might say that in my own practical experienceI am beginning to understand your purpose in assign-ing papers such as Pepys's Senses, The Casket Letters,The Fenian Conspiracy, and readings from Shaw, But-ler, Fuertes, etc. The information drawn from theoriginal sources on these topics is really not much dif-ferent from information drawn from original sources inevery aspect of life itself. The important thing is beingable to withdraw this information for yourself."

Ahead: 'Top drawer' research

In the study of history—throughout the humanities—there must exist a close relationship between teacherand student, in surroundings conducive to contempla-tion. These are requirements not yet properly met atCornell. The humanities are crowded into GoldwinSmith Hall and, because nearly all Cornell students liveoff campus away from their professors, the element ofcollegiality, with its close and continuing contact be-tween teacher and taught, is lacking.

Nor is it easy to attract professors—Cornell's emi-nent library and ideal surroundings notwithstanding.Last spring, Cornell offered a lavish academic salary toa brilliant young history professor. It was immediatelymet by the professor's college. Because, in addition tosalary, the library resources not only of his own uni-versity but of the Chicago area were available to him,the professor decided to stay where he was.

Planning to maintain a valuable faculty thus takeson the aspect of a chess game, played against univer-sities and colleges with similar aims and goals.

One day, if improvements in electronic informationretrieval keep their present pace, the entire library re-sources of a university may in effect be contained in thetop drawer of every professor's desk. Until then, thestruggle between universities to attract faculty will befought in terms of library size and excellence, salaries,and living and studying conditions.

Computers are, however, already exerting an in-fluence upon humane study. Ephim B. Fogel, associateprofessor of English at Cornell, says that humanitiesscholars must use computers to increase the effective-ness of their research. Professor Fogel, with Prof.Stephen λl. Parrish, is utilizing a computer in the com-piling of a concordance of the poems of Ben Jonson.The volume will be one in the Cornell ConcordanceSeries, a program of literary data processing by ma-chine, under Professor Parrish's general editorship.

'To produce a man who is a "just judge." '

Professor Fogel says interested humanists shouldbe released from some of their present duties in orderfor them to acquire the theory and background infor-mation necessary if computer programming is to be putto full use in literary research.

Computers notwithstanding, the road to the hu-manities at Cornell, as to the heart of almost any studyat a university, leads through the library.

Because of the generosity of many people and theskill of its directors and staff, Cornell's system of li-braries ranks seventh among U.S. universities.

But Stephen A. McCarthy, director of the libraries,in a generally hopeful report, rich with news of sig-nificant acquisitions and general progress, sounds awarning: "The pressures both from without and with-in the University for substantial strengthening of thefunds for library acquisitions are intense. The needs areto be found in all parts of the University."

Cornell's book collections are bettered, however,by a number of those institutions with which the Uni-versity likes to be compared, says Mr. McCarthy. "Itwould seem that the condition of adequacy is still along way off."

Faculty, yardstick of quality

Another measure of a university's program in thehumanities is to examine the quality of its faculty. Inthis regard, Cornell has been blessed with a long tra-dition of fine humanists—Carl Becker, NathanielSchmidt, Lane Cooper, Will Strunk Jr., George LincolnBurr; the list could go on indefinitely.

The peculiar excellence of the present faculty isgenerally considered to be its balance. In professorslike Harry Caplan (Classics), XL H. Abrams (Eng-lish), Arthur M. Mizener (English), and others, Cor-nell has a group of scholars of genuine distinction,

backed up by a strong body of young, aggressiveteachers who are on their way to establishing similarreputations.

To take full advantage of the growing competenceof its humanities faculty, Cornell has created new de-partments. In addition to a new Department of RussianLiterature, already established, it is hoped a Depart-ment of Semitic Languages may soon become a reality,headed by Prof. Isaac Rabinowitz. The new depart-ment would offer a major in Arabic, Aramaic, or He-brew to interested undergraduates. Arabic and He-brew are already offered by Professor Rabinowitz.At least two new professors would be necessary tostaff the department. The department's aim would beto produce more graduates who have a deep under-standing and appreciation of Semitic literature andNear Eastern culture.

The importance of the new department becomesobvious when one recalls that more than half of man-kind's known history was recorded in Semitic lan-guages. Hebrew literature, in point of volume, far ex-ceeds that of English literature; the same is true ofArabic. Aramaic, of course, was not so widely used,but it was the language spoken by Jesus Christ andone of the two languages in which the Old Testamentwas written.

To preserve the purity of humanistic research andat the same time relieve language specialists of the dis-traction of following too many literary trails, the Col-lege of Arts and Sciences has created a Department ofRomance Literature, distinct from the study of linguis-tics. The new arrangement realistically accommodatesboth the scientific advances made in the teaching oflanguages and the humanistic study of foreign litera-ture.

Pattern for the future

An important outgrowth of humane studies at Cor-nell is a projected Society for the Humanities. Fellowsof the Society, says a brochure announcing the project,"will be selected, not only for distinction in a special-ized field, but for the breadth of their interests, and thevigor, resourcefulness, and scope of their work in hu-mane studies." Some fellows will be appointed fromabroad; others will be distinguished writers, drama-tists, composers, and artists, as well as statesmen andjurists, who are articulate about the theory and the edu-cational and social relevance of their work. Each wouldspend a period lecturing at Cornell.

The brochure adds: "It is hoped that the Fellowsof the Society will occasionally include scientists whohave interests and competence in the humanities andwho are concerned with the bearing of humane studieson their special pursuits and on the life of society."

This plan for a Society for the Humanities resultsfrom five years of study by the Humanities Council atCornell. The council consists of senior faculty mem-bers in the several departments of the humanities.

A word to the '

Years ago, Carl L. Becker, former professor of His-tory and Cornell University historian, said: "There isindeed no reason for the existence of Cornell, or of anyother university, or for maintaining the freedom oflearning and teaching which they insist upon, exceptinsofar as they serve to maintain and promote the hu-mane and rational values which are essential to thepreservation of democratic society, and of civilizationas we understand it."

Voicing a general opinion, Prof. George H. Healeysays: "The humanities, while strong in some years andweak in others, have always been in a tenuous andambiguous position at Cornell. The situation is no dif-ferent now, though the humanities are stronger nowthan they have probably ever been before."

Cornell's strength in the humanities stems largely,says Professor Healey, from the spirit in which Cornellwas founded. "The humanities were taught in the mid-nineteenth century, but the trouble was that theyweren't taught well, and they were all that was taught.It was this murdering of a good thing that Cornell'sfirst President, Andrew D. White, wanted to correct."

Cornell's eminence in the sciences tends some-times to obscure the University's contribution in letters.But it was at Cornell that science students first beganto receive background in the humanities, and vice versa.Other universities, here and abroad, eventually fol-lowed suit.

The technical disciplines provide students the pro-fessional insights and skills required to enter careers in

For the Humanities

Needs of the humanities, the social sciences, andthe natural sciences are for the most part woven to-gether in the Table of Needs of the current Centen-nial Campaign. The humanities alone will benefitfrom the item to provide a new organization in thefield:

Society for the Humanities $2,500,000

The humanities and their neighbors, the social sci-ences, will receive the bulk of the benefits from alarge block of other items designed to strengthen thenon-technical disciplines:

Endowed professorships $15,000,000Graduate teaching fellowships 7,000,000Faculty research funds 1,000,000Arts Quadrangle improvements 1,615,000Central Libraries and book funds 5,150,000

$29,765,000

specialized fields. It is for the humanities to providethese and the general or liberal arts students with in-sights into the human soul, into the lessons of philosophyand history as they illuminate the meaning of man'slife. Reflected from the humanistic studies is the ac-cumulated understanding scholars have gained of themarvelous workings of mankind.

Dr. Johnson, whose quotation opened this article,would surely have approved the Cornell idea of pre-senting the humanities and technology side by side,and approved as well the current many-fronted effortto further strengthen the position of the humanities inthe face of trends that favor the more obviously "prac-tical" disciplines.

The fall season is the time of the yearto visit the campus and the beautiful FingerLakes region — especially on a footballweekend. This year the Cornell UniversityCouncil met the weekend of the Penngame, at the same time the Convocationceremonies of Cornell's Centennial Cele-bration were held. It was a great two days,with Penn's team visiting Ithaca for thefirst time and losing 33-0 to the Big Redvarsity. The ceremonies were most impres-sive, with the presence of university repre-sentatives from all over the world. GeorgeA. Newbury reported on the progress of theCentennial Fund. We were one of the luckyΊ7ers to be present with Elmer A. SperryJr. from Wilton, Conn., the only otherclassmate there from out-of-town. Prof. A.Wright (Gibby) Gibson had a part in theceremonies and had as his guest RocheforteL. Weeks, LLM '54, now president of theU of Liberia.

Two weeks later we were on the campusagain for the annual meeting of the Fed-eration of Cornell Men's Clubs and Home-coming. Donald Danenhower attended also,representing the Cornell Club of Phila-delphia. Our '17 Homecoming Dinner inWillard Straight Hall found 27 present.Ellsworth L.

C. Stuart Perkins broke all class recordsby sending in his check for class dues be-fore the first frost and long before JackKnight's annual notices had gone out. Stu,who lives out in California, has the uniquehobby of trying to talk a little sense intoCongress on the subject of income-tax re-vision, but I hadn't heard from him sincehe was last in Washington talking withWays and Means Committee members onthat subject almost two years ago. John S.Shanly also sent in his unsolicited checkfor dues at almost the same time, and bynow I assume the Akron mailmen are busyhauling checks to 44 E. Exchange St. Un-like Stu, who rarely wastes time writing,John sent word that, as head of a large tour-operating outfit, he and his wife had cov-ered some 50,000 miles this year, includingtwo trips to Europe and Mexico. John'sfirm is Shanly International Corp., 528 BlueCross Bldg., Buffalo.

Charley Muller, who went to bat for mein September to write an account of the1918 class picnic for the NEWS, passesalong a couple of letters from Ί8ers whohad expected to attend but for one reasonor another had to stay home. SawyerThompson was one of them; he, poor fel-low, fell down and broke his shoulder andas one of the world's great trenchermen,this limited him to eating and drinkingwith one hand. But, as all his friends toldhim, "Lucky it was your left arm." Sawyerlives at 9 Gables, Oakdale. Harry Mattin,at whose great estate up the Hudson theclass affair was held, reports apologeticallythat he missed various phone calls concern-ing the picnic but hopes nobody failed toattend because of that. Harry, as always,put on a great feed, as the November issuerecounted.

Paul Miller needed to feel active eventhough technically a retired executive andso he took on a big job in New York run-ning New York State's Department ofCommerce — but even that wasn't enough.Latest news is that Paul has entered WallStreet to become president and chief execu-tive officer of Charming Financial Corp.,that vast outfit which has too many rami-fications for me to attempt to describe.Among the companies which are its sub-sidiaries is Van Strum & Towne, one of thelargest of the investment advisory com-panies.

in June and, as this is being written, havejust returned home, or will do so in thenear future.

We received a card recently from DickDyckmann, our vice president, from Inter-laken, Switzerland. Dick and Hester leftshortly after Reunion and expected to beback in Plainfield, N.J., in mid-October.Dick says that he hasn't seen any class-mates since June. They had a marveloustrip through Europe this summer.

We had a letter from Charlie Lerner re-cently, stating that he and Stella were leav-ing on an extended rail and motor coachtrip to Rocky Mountain states, California,Texas, and Mexico. They planned to begone about a month, returning in lateOctober.

We assume that Gene Beggs and wife willbe back from the Olympic Games in a fewdays. From watching some of it on televi-sion, we got the impression that it was reallysomething to see. We are wondering if anyother classmates attended. If so, drop usa line.

An undated note from Keith W. Benson,1601 Locust, Sterling, 111., said: "Leavingtomorrow for Hawaii. Last year had thepleasure of running into Όbie' O'Brienwhile in Hawaii." We assume Keith haslong since returned.

Stanley Mott-Smith sent in an interest-ing item some time ago, but such is the lackof speed with which we process news thatwe are only now getting to it. Stanley re-ports that he retired on Aug. 31, 1962 fromC. Brewer & Co. Stanley and wife then leftHawaii shortly thereafter for a leisurelytrip around the world, traveling by freight-ers and living in rented apartments for fourmonths in Hong Kong and for three monthsin Torremolinos, Spain. At this latter placehe received a cable from C. Brewer & Co.requesting him to return to Hawaii tohandle a special project for them. He ex-pects to be busy with this until early 1965.The Mott-Smiths' address is PO Box 186,Kaumakani, Kauai, Hawaii.

Without a doubt, you're breathlesslyawaiting news of the Class Dinner, and atthis writing, the report has just filteredthrough by carrier pigeon — air mail beingmuch too slow these days. It was "thinpickin's" at the dinner, but the smallness ofnumbers was overshadowed by the enthusi-asm of these loyal classmates who attended:Prexy Walt Archibald, Secy. Henry Benisch,Ho Ballou, Nat Baier, Dick Edson, EdFritz, Thorne Hurlbut, Russ Her, DeyoJohnson, Roy Johnston, Jefϊ Kilbourne, NedLevien, Gordon Mertz, Howie Pabst, AlPurdy, Irv Shustek, Bill Spivak, and AlWhitehill.

There were a number of speakers, self-appointed of course, who dissertated on avariety of subjects. Plans for the 45th Re-union occupied a major portion of the pro-gram, the Big Red football team being men-tioned just here and there by the mutteringthrong. The hilarity of the evening wassaddened by the news that Moneybags JoeDiamant was unable to be present becauseof serious illness and further was forced togive up his position as class treasurer. Acheerful note was sent to Joe and we hopehis recovery will be rapid and permanent.

Ho Ballou, after a month's vacation onhis island off the coast of Maine, is backat the bourse, and as soon as he can"ground" Bill Littlewood long enough fora meeting, they'll have some Reunionplans to announce. Ed Fritz was back froma big swing around the country.

Last we heard about Russ Her was thathe had given up practice and had estab-lished himself in Hoagland territory inSarasota, Fla. Now he bobs up at the din-ner and says he's just part-retired — but hedidn't say which part! Deyo Johnson of

Knoll Acres, Ellenville, is retired from ac-tive duty in the lumber business, but is stillchm. of the board of his three major com-panies. Not having enough to keep himbusy, Deyo has become chm. EllenvillePlanning Commission; chm. Ulster Co.Planning Board; vice chm. Tri-StateChamber of Commerce Council, and mem-ber advisory comm., N.Y. State Recrea-tional Council. If that doesn't keep himout of mischief, there's still room on theCentennial Fund comm. for a helping handwith the last 15 million.

Charles L. (Jefϊ) Kilbourne came downfrom Moravia especially for the dinner,stopping over at Edson's Scotch Pines Re-sort for a few days. Jeff says he's nowofficially retired (don't know what hecalled it before), and he and Judy areplanning another trip to Hawaii this winter— and looking for someone with similarideas. Ned Griswald Levien lives in Fred-erick, Md., and is an engineer with theGoodnor Const. Co. of Long Island City.Boy, that's a long hike to work each day!

George Stanton will be back in Mont-clair, N.J. this month, after spending mostof the summer and fall in Hawaii and inTokyo for the Olympics, followed by a tripon around the world. By the way the UStrack team tramped on the Russians, wesuspect George was doing some coachingfrom the sidelines with the old Moakleytouch. Gordon Mertz, Elkins Park, Md., ison the last lap this month, expecting toretire in January after 40 years in thebattery business. Last summer he got acharge seeing his daughter in Calif., thenYosemite, Grand Canyon, and Yellowstone,driving 8,200 miles.

John McDonald of Dubuque, Iowa, andRalph Owen of Berkeley, Calif., had lunchtogether this fall at the San Francisco Cor-nell Club, reminiscing about old Cascadilladays. John, who is chm. of the board ofA. Y. McDonald Mfg. Co., was introducedas the "handsomest member of 1920" (notequotes). Ralph flew back to Homecoming,but couldn't make the dinner. He'll be backagain in June.

"Rom" (Fred W.) Rombach states thathe is "having a ball," having retired just intime, as community affairs were beginningto interfere. He was general manager ofWatsontown Cabinet Plant, Philco Corp,,and had been in charge of cabinet produc-tion for 28 years. He will continue to liveat 1002 Main St., Watsontown, Pa., exceptfor "frequent absences to visit grandchil-dren in California."

"Whitey" (Sherwood) Vermilye retiredlast May from the Union Carbide Corp.as manager of industrial relations for theLinde Division and lives at 93 HighwoodAve., Tenafly, N.J. Whitey reports that heis convalescent from a slight paralyticstroke suffered in 1962.

Those who acceptedreceived beforehand, a ticket to the fair, aguest card for the Terrace Club, and specialparking privileges. The number would havebeen slightly larger had it not been for thesudden illness of George Teare who re-turned to Cleveland, the urgent business inIthaca of "Alderman" Ted Baldwin, JimTrousdale, and President James Perkins.Seventeen states were represented includingColorado, Texas, Florida, Missouri, NorthCarolina, Wisconsin, Mississippi, and Mich-igan.

The news item about Clem was sent in byour hard-working Southern California re-porter, Walt Myton. Walt is busily occu-pied as a designer for Douglas Aircraft,and was one of the staff responsible for themoon rocket shot last January.

Walt's reporting of news brings up thefact that there are several territories stillopen for any class members who would liketo get some basic training in journalism.The opportunity to become a second Gree-ley or Pulitzer are unlimited. The pay isinconsiderable, and the fringes would tickleyou to death. All applicants for assignmentto the staff can qualify by submitting pub-lishable samples of their work.

Twoyears ago, I managed to reach the craterof Popocateptl, at an altitude of morethan 17,000 feet. This climb is made byabout 4,000 Mexicans and others, but Ican testify it is a little different being upthere all alone than with 3,999 com-panions.

The Yale game has now faded into thepast, but as I write this, it was the day be-fore yesterday. We have a fine football teamand it was an exciting game, but a heart-breaker, as so many of our games have beenthis year. Afterwards, our class had a cock-tail party in the Statler— a small but goodgathering. If we have these in the future, wemight join with the two classes before andafter us to make a more interesting affair.

Alexis L. Romanoff, emeritus professor ofchemical embryology and an internationallyknown scientist, did more than write exhaus-tive and ably reported studies about his re-search on the egg and the embryo.

W. S. Cole is glad to report that he nolonger has to carry the duties of geologydepartment head and can relax into histeaching and his own particular researchinterests.

John W. MacDonald is still a popularteacher in the Law School and serving aschairman of the New York State Law Revi-sion Commission. He is also chairman ofthe faculty committee to solicit the Cornellfaculty for the Centennial fund.

John M. Crandall, whom we reported asmoving from Pocono Manor to the GrandBahama Hotel in the Bahamas, is now wellsettled there and completely enraptured bythat beautiful island resort. He would surelike to see his Cornell friends down there—and not only to fill the rooms! He just plainmisses those he doesn't see.

Although quantity is low, quality is highthis month, with news from Carol Cline andMarion Bean Parnell. No one could possiblysqueeze more on a post card than "Cliney,"as you might guess from the following ex-cerpts.

"I didn't do a thing all summer exceptfor the 10 days in June when I drove toIthaca to organize the '37 records for theUniversity archives. Visited classmatesalong the way. Details later.

"The oldest son of Bill and MarionEagan Hartman graduated from Purduelast January and married a Purdue co-edthis summer. He has joined the familybusiness, Hartman Electrical Mfg. Go. inMansfield, Ohio. Their twin sons, Kayeand Sandy, worked at Yellowstone for thesummer. Kaye is a student at Cornell;Sandy at Kansas U.

"Helen Fry spent several weeks vaca-tioning in Scotland and England. Twoweeks in the Highlands visiting friendsand taking in the Braemer Games."

Marion Bean Parnell writes,"We are pretty well settled in once

more, happy to be back in the Rochesterarea. Our oldest daughter graduated fromthe U of Indiana in June, is married, liv-ing and teaching in Maine. Sandy is asenior at Michigan State. The other threeare busy with high school and elementaryactivities. Norm enjoys his work withXerox Corp., and I am teaching homeeconomics in a nearby community. I seeMarion Jackson Ross occasionally. Shelives in Pittsford, too."

From the department of statistics: Todate, I have sent out 100 double post cardsand received 20 answers. I am told that thisis considered a sensationally good responseby mail order firms who survive on fivepercent returns, but then all they want ismoney. Do I make my point? No news, nocolumn.

It was an atypical lateOctober week-end as far as weather went.That is to say, Saturday was rather dourand cold, but not windy, snowy, or rainy.Then Sunday bloomed into a gorgeous, sun-ny Indian summer day. It was an ideal timeto drive about the campus, the East Lake

Drive, and Cayuga Heights, which is whatI did before breakfast.

On hand for the festivities at the Big RedBarn before and after the game, and/or atour class dinner at the Ithaca Country ClubSaturday night were George More, FredHillegas, Gil Rose, Pete Bos, Noel Bennett,Lou Dollinger, Roy Black, "Frosty" Dur-ham, Bob Wilkinson, Howie Thompson,"Ham" Knight, Larry Bly — all with wivesand sprinklings of children — and ErnieDahmen, Ralph Donohue, and this charac-ter, all solo.

The game was darned exciting eventhough, as everyone knows by now, it shouldreally have ended 21-20, Cornell. It put usin an exhilarated frame of mind for ourdinner at the Club. It was a fine spread, allarranged for us by Bob Wilkinson, whocarried it through despite the fact that hismother died two days before. Honoredguests who helped us live it up were theStork Sanfords, the Haskell Davidsons, theTed Thorens, and the Seldon Brewers. Sorryso many of you missed it.

"Thanks for your thoughtfulness. I doenjoy the ALUMNI NEWS. AS it looksnow, we will be returning to USA forfurlough in 1965. From Aug. 15 or so ouraddress will be Walker Missionary Home,144 Hancock St., Auburndale, Mass, forone year. Thereafter we have no idea,though there are several plans being con-sidered. So it is reasonably likely that Iwill be able to revisit Cornell sometimein '66. And if we stay some time in theStates before return, it would make pos-sible my joining the 30th in '68. So we'llsee! In the meantime, I keep pluggingalong at trying to make our part of Indiaa healthier and better place in which tolive."

We recently received a check fromWilliam A. Miller to pay his 1963 dues. Thenews of his dues is hardly news, but his

address suggests a story. It is: Cia. IndustrialPalmeiras, Caixa Postal 776, Campinas,S.P., Brazil. Tell us more about what youare doing in Brazil, Bill.

Speaking of dues, our '64 bills have notbeen sent yet, in keeping with our year-endcollection system. They should be out soon,however. The dues campaign won't comeany too soon for this correspondent, for thecampaign always generates a lot of cor-respondence, which is my source of infor-mation. Unfortunately, there isn't space touse all of this news when it is fresh, andsome of it gets a bit out of date when thereis room in the column. For example, Ilearned some months ago that Ed ΐhibielwas made vice president of the R. T. FrenchCo. which is famous for many of its foodsand particularly its mustard. Son Bob gradu-ated from Syracuse in 1962, and daughterAnn was in the Class of '64 in Home Eco-nomics at Cornell. He and wife Olive liveat 100 Franklin Rd., Rochester 17.

Here is another item that is no longertimely, but is certainly still interesting. It isfrom L. L. Beaudry, 45 Cambridge Lane,Deerfield, 111. As of Jan. 1, 1964 he becamevice president and general manager ofPancake Kitchens, Inc. and will be locatedat the main office at 144 E. 44th St., NewYork.

Finally, from Wallace J. Borker, 91 Rock-ledge Rd., New York, "In February 1963,I left American Electric Power Co.'s legaldepartment to become a partner in Borden& Ball, a law firm, at 70 Pine St., NewYork. I'm enjoying this new work verymuch. Our son, David, who is now a seniorat White Plains High School studied Russianat Cornell last summer. He's now hopingthey will admit him next year as an under-graduate."

"I just returned to Saigon after threemonths home in Cape God, Mass. Thiswill be my third tour of three years here. . . The war here is not going at all well. . . A decision must be made soon andheld to as to whether we are determinedto hold this country from falling into theReds' hands. If not, this means that allSoutheast Asia will go Red. Indeed, it isa grave decision that the President andthe Congress must make. One point I takegreat exception to is the statement ofPresident Johnson that he is for keepingthe country (United States) at peace asnow. You certainly wouldn't agree to thisstatement when you witness the bodies ofUS military men being shipped home.Would the wives and children of theseservicemen who have lost their lives heresay we were at peace?

An Ithaca traveler reported on the Home-coming game: "the team looked good —except for some fatal mistakes." Forty-Niners gathered for cocktails at the StatlerHotel following the game. Dick Brown, DanEmerson, Paul Gillette, Bill Hansen, MartyHummel, Dick Keegan, Neil Lawton, BillOΉaus, Walt Peek, and Richie Reynoldswere among the party-goers.

After the Yale game, Oct. 24, the classplayed host to the annual Homecomingparty at the Statler for classes '50-'54. Turn-out seemed a bit lighter than usual, maybebecause it was a Yale game for the secondyear in a row. David Weatherby againserved as chairman. He is also heading upplans for our Fifteenth Reunion come June.

There's a risk in trying to list everyonewho was back for the weekend. Here's apartial list: Albert C. Neimeth, John Ma-loney, William (Bud) Marcussen and Mrs.(Barbara Singleton), Joan Noden KeeganWalter Bruska, Frank M. Chupp and Mrs.(Berta Hall), and, from Ithaca, John Mel-lor, F. A. (Ben) Williams, and John Mar-cham.

We have not taken note in this column ofthe change in status of John Marcham, whohas kept us on the straight and narrow lothese many months as editor of the NEWS.We would like to congratulate John on hisnew job as director of University relationsand say that we know he will do a great jobin getting the word out about the Universityand all its comings and goings.

Scott D. Hamilton Jr., Box 248, Anchor-age, Alaska, is showing the way for all of uswho think we are still boy athletes but knowwe are not. On July 4 he participated in arace from Seward to the top of 3,022-footMount Marathon and back. Scott was firstacross the line in the civilian category andwas the only civilian to complete the coursein less than an hour with a time of 54 min-utes and 51 seconds. Scott was precededacross the line by nine members of the USArmy's crack biathlon team (ski-firing)from Ft. Richardson who train for this sortof thing all the time and are 10 years young-er than Scott. Even with that, Scott beat twoof the biathlon team members.

As if that was not enough, later in thesummer Scott was liaison officer for a nine-man party of Japanese climbers who con-quered 18,008-foot Mount St. Elias. Scottdescribed some of the climb as follows:

"The first ascent of St. Elias from theCanadian side, and the third in history wasquite a triumph for our nine-man Japaneseparty, especially since a California andCanadian expedition had both failed inJune of this year, let alone all the otherfailures and deaths since the second ascentin 1946, 18 years ago. To top it off, withan opening of good weather, we had whatJapanese call a 'rush attack' and placedtwo men on the summit only eight daysafter the last of the party arrived at BaseCamp by plane. Attack # 1 (Takeda,Hamilton, and Kawamoto) forged the

Cornell Alumni News

route from Mt. Newton (13,810 which allexpedition members reached) and Gamp4 towards Russell Col, including goingover the 400-foot ice cliff (Californianscall it 500), rappelling straight down inwhat was the most difficult climbing Ihave ever done. Our team was too heavy(155 is heavy) to get through the heavilycrevassed area, and Attack #2 was com-posed of 125-lb. lightweights, who byacrobatics crossed a 1,500-ft. knife ridgein two hours by jamming ice axe in one sideand two points of each crampon on theother and straddling the knife. It was asheer drop of half a mile on either side,and the continuous avalanches did not givemuch encouragement. Nishimae and Ya-mane require 37 hours of continuousclimbing to reach the summit."

I had big hopes that this column would bedevoted to listing the many classmates re-turning for Homecoming Oct. 24, but suchis not the case. A combination of many fac-tors led to our smallest turnout in severalyears. However, what we lacked in quan-tity, we made up for with quality. The firstorder of business was the Class Councilmeeting that wasn't. Jim Stocker, VP, hasbeen transferred to California by Scott PaperCo.; President Bob Caplan was unable tobreak away from his doctorial endeavors atHarvard; Bob Brandt, our secretary-chair-man was off in North Carolina at the furni-ture shows on behalf of his ever-growingbusiness in Rochester; Bill Field, chief fundraiser, found the addition of twins to hisfamily too much of a roadblock; and JoeCalby, treasurer, missed Homecoming forthe first time in a number of years.

Only two of the Council were able to bethere —Trev Warfield, who was tied up atanother meeting, and myself, busily attempt-ing to convince the Admissions Office toaccept my nephew. I had hoped to reporton the success of our class subscription drive,but don't have all the details. I do know thatwe have done well enough to permit theunderwriters in the class to quit sweating.The first cut from the mailing list is aboutto be made, so if you haven't done it already,get your check off to Joe Calby, 7 WindsorDr., Princeton Junction, N.J.—the amountis $10.

The day's events started well, with thefrosh upsetting undefeated Yale 7-3. Thevarsity almost managed the same, but could-n't overcome the professional field-goalkicking by Yale's Mercein, and lost 23-21.As has become our custom, and one that im-proves each year, those attending gatheredafter the game at the Statler for cocktails.This year's group included the classes of'50-'54. Buffalo was well represented bythe likes of Herb Forbach, Jack Howelland wife Betty Meng '51, legal light JohnKirshner, George Truell, and yours truly.

Rochester checked in with Steve Roundsand Al Underberg. I had a chance to chatwith Pete Bolanis who had come up fromPittsburgh for the festivities. Pete told mehe tries to sneak in his vacation in Marcheach year in order to get in some first-rateskiing. For the past three years, he hasheaded for Europe. While not on vacationor not at work in the family candy business,he skies in the Pittsburgh area.

I saw Dave Epstein, who is practicingdentistry in Ithaca, at the luncheon beforethe game. Spotted Sam MacNeill, varsitybasketball coach, at the frosh game and"Rip" Haley at the cocktail party. Rip isnow working for the University in fund-raising. His address in Ithaca is 403 SalemDr. There were so few of us back that Itold Ken Tunnell I would mention his namein spite of the fact he has deserted us for'52, but I thought better of it and won't.

I often wonder if we will ever see the endof news that some classmate has been award-ed another degree. If so, the end is not now.Arnold Guess and Lyle McBride both re-ceived their PhD's from Harvard lastMarch.

Reginald Rice, 1341 Hillview Dr., MenloPark, Calif., had his picture in a nationaladvertisement in Time magazine on thebasis of his service to Connecticut Generaland to the insurance industry. Reg and wifeAlice have two sons.

Over one-quarter of our class moves everyyear. Keeping up with addresses is quite aproblem. You can help by notifying theuniversity promptly. Following are someof the latest changes:

John's experi-ences ranged from "arranging for FBI in-

57

vestigation of a case in which a minister hadbeen beaten and arrested for trying to securemedical care for a Harvard student volun-teer, to witnessing a cross burning at theintegrated motel where he was staying."

John represented "a rabbi who was ar-rested for attempting to register persons inthe Freedom Democratic Party because hehad not secured a permit (a requirementwhich has been held unconstitutional)."John writes: "In a few words, the violationof civil and political rights in Mississippiare incredible and an outrage."

No doubt all of you saw the full-page ad-vertisement taken by the Class of '16 in theSeptember issue of the ALUMNI NEWS. Theman behind this annual dues drive is BirgeKinne, Ί6's secretary-treasurer. Shortly af-ter the advertisement appeared, Birge waskind enough to call to say that one of ourclassmates, Dave Gatti, was the genius whoprepared the copy and layout for that well-conceived advertisement. Dave works in theadvertising department at B. Altman & Co.,Fifth Ave,, New York.

Since I have no other current news, Iwould like to reprint Sue DeRosay Men-ninger's notes about Beth Ames (Mrs. Mel-vin J. Swartz) which appeared in our 1964Class Newsletter, as I think Beth's activi-ties would be of interest to Cornellians ofother classes as well as our own:

"Beth, who received her MA in 1960from NYU, taught art in Scottsdale, Ariz,until May of last year. This year, althoughshe is not working per se, she has beenvery busy painting professionally, lectur-ing and writing in the field of children'sart, and has helped to establish an artgallery in New Valley. Beth and twoother women art teachers established theArtists' Cooperative, an organizationwhose purpose is to bring high quality artto the public at practical prices. 'Artistshang and select their own work for theshow, thereby eliminating gallery servicesand fees,' Beth explains. Beth got theidea from a similar group in San Fran-cisco and secured the help of her attorneyhusband and a fellow New Yorker, Mrs.Murial Zimmerman, in contacting otherlocal artists. An airticle describing theopening says of Beth's paintings: '— usescolors that have the richness of orientaltapestries and uses media that seem justas mysterious and exotic.' Each week atthe Jewish Community Center, Beth in-structs a unique art class. It is for theentire family. 'The most important partof this project is,' she stresses, 'the feel-ing created between parents and children.They gain respect seeing each other ac-tually achieving, creating a picture.'

"In the May issue of Arizona: PointWest, Beth has an article entitled 'MyPoint: Are we stifling our children'screativity?' She states: 'At a time in ourhistory when our country, and theworld, needs desperately the benefits ofevery creative spark which can be nur-tured and directed into useful channels,we often teach our children that in imita-tion rather than creation lie the keys tosuccess.' She goes on to discuss whatcreativity is, why it is important, and howwe can develop it in our children. Shealso has had a booklet published which isentitled 'Growing up with Art.' Her hus-band is a graduate of Syracuse U and theBoston Law School. He has a privatepractice in Phoenix and Youngstown, andspecializes in estate planning."

guage," a program designed to give fifthand sixth grade pupils an understandingand appreciation of the functional basis oftheir speech and writing.

τy"E DON'T LIKE to burden you with our" problems.

But since your cooperation is essentialin helping us solve one of them, we hopeyou won't mind wading through the nextfew paragraphs to find out how you canhelp us save money, improve subscriptionservice, and continue the CORNELL ALUM-NI NEWS'S editorial growth.

Here is the problem:

Recent changes in postal regulationshave greatly increased the expense ofhandling copies which are not correctlyaddressed.

If you move without notifying us oryour post office, your copies of the ALUMNINEWS are not forwarded. Nor are theyreturned to us. They do no one any good.The local post office sends us notification,however, that your copies were not de-livered . . . and each of these notificationscosts us ten cents. We lose ten cents pernotification . . . plus the cost of the un-delivered copies . . . the expense of track-ing down your new address . . . and theoutlay for sending you the missing copiesif they are available. Multiply this by theseveral thousands of subscribers whochange their addresses each year, and youcan easily see that the waste of money andmanpower is considerable.

We would rather put that same moneyand manpower to work on the editorialside—continuing to add to the NEWS newand important material to increase yourreading enjoyment each month.

New approaches

to new risks

r . . . •••-.

$;• v.:': - :"'

American investment habits under-went a tremendous change in thepast generation. Many a family,identified for decades with a singleindustry, found reason to broadenand diversify its holdings.

Those at the other extreme, wholooked upon bonds as the mediumfor conservative funds, turned tocommon stocks. Still others foundpart of their answer in tax exempt

bonds or in combining investmentsof different types.

Time brings new problems forthose who specialize in investmentmanagement. The need for breadthof information and depth of judg-ment is constantly increasing inimportance.

We have an organization, and anapproach to these problems, that webelieve are unique.
