A New England Mutual agent ANSWERS SOME QUESTIONS about

sales trainingin life insurance

MORE THAN 900 New England Mutual agents likeGeorge Graves (Georgetown '49) are college alumni.They come from all over the country. George is only 29years old, but already he's won membership in ourLeaders' Association. He says his success in selling lifeinsurance is a direct result of New England Mutual'scomprehensive course of sales training.

The NEW ENGLANDMUTUAL Life \nsuranme

Company of Boston

Suppose I join New England Mutual as a field repre-sentative. How would they start training me?

"First, you'd get basic training in your own agency — boththeory and field work. Then, after a few months of sellingunder expert guidance, comes a comprehensive Home Of-fice course in Boston."

How soon can I expect this training to pay off?

"I'll give you an example of five new men at one of oureastern agencies. Young fellows, 24 to 31 years old. Onlyone had any previous experience in life insurance. By theend of the first year their incomes ranged from $3532 to$5645. With renewal commissions, first year earningswould be from $5824 to $9702. The average: $7409."

Can a man continue his study of life insurance afterthose first two courses?

"He most certainly can. The company will next instructyou in the use of its 'Coordinated Estates' programmingservice. Then you go on to 'Advanced Underwriting',which relates insurance to business uses, estate planningand taxation problems. Actually, all through your careeras a New England Mutual agent, you'll be kept posted onthe latest economic and business developments which havea bearing on life insurance."

What kind of a career can a salesman look forward towith your company?

"Let me cite another example. Out of twelve men who tookone of our Home Office courses in 1947, five are now NewEngland Mutual General Agents. One man has become ahome office executive. The other six are earning compar-able incomes in their own communities where they havebuilt successful careers in personal selling."

CASGADILLA HALL, four-story stonebuilding near the south entrance to theCampus, has been made into a dormi-tory for graduate women students. It isthe first sizeable living unit for graduatewomen at the University. A few yearsago, graduate women were housed inone section of the building and graduatemen in the other.

Fifty-five women are living in thebuilding. No dining facilities are pro-vided. The fourth floor and a few roomson the first floor are available for con-ference visitors. Cascadilla residents haveset up a program of government withNancy B. Helm, Law, as chairman of theHall and Maureen Moynihan '54, Grad,as treasurer.

Former President's HouseBecomes Campus Art Center

A YEAR AGO, the house above East Avenue which President Whitebuilt for his residence in 1871 was opened as the Andrew DicksonWhite Museum of Art. In its first year, the Museum has countedmore than 14,000 visitors. It has had a varied and continuous pro-gram of some sixty exhibitions of works of art, with accompanyinggallery talks and lectures by members of the Faculty and Museumstaff, discussion groups, and film programs. Every day finds stu-dents, Faculty members, Ithacans, and visitors looking at exhibits;teachers from the Colleges of Architecture, Arts & Sciences, andHome Economics bring their classes; nearly 2800 persons visitedthe University Festival of Contemporary Arts held in the Museumlast April for the first time; at Reunion and Commencement time,the Museum was a point of interest for many alumni and studentswith their parents. Many of the year's exhibits have been lent byCornellians and other collectors or have come from galleries andmuseums. Some have been of the White Museum's own holdings,which have increased during the year with more than thirty giftsof interesting and valuable art objects and collections from alumniand other friends.

Conversion of the historic President's House to make it a suitableUniversity center for the enjoyment of art was made possible bygifts for the purpose from Ernest I. White '93 of Syracuse, nephewof the first President.

Director of the White Museum is Professor Alan R. Solomon,Fine Arts, Harvard '42, who trained in the Fogg Museum of Art atHarvard. His assistant is Mrs. Archie T. Dotson formerly of theVassar faculty. A Faculty advisory committee is headed by Profes-sor Frederick O. Waage, Fine Arts, with its other members Mrs.Dorothy V. N. Brooks, Dean of Women; Mrs. Edith M. Fox '32,University Archivist; Giles F. Shepherd, Jr., Assistant Director ofthe University Library; Professors John A. Hartell '24, Painting &Sculpture, and Virginia True, Housing & Design.

Many Visit Historic House—Official opening ofthe White Art Museum, November 22, 1953,brought nearly 1000 visitors. In its first year, it hasbecome an important part of the University andthe community with its exhibits and varied activi-ties which show the values of art in actual living.

LETTERSMissed By a Whisker

EDITOR: The great-grandson of GeorgeF. Behringer '693 who was Cornell's firstgraduate (by virtue of the B in his sur-name, as I understand the claim), is anundergraduate in the School of Chemi-cal & Metallurgical Engineering. He isHenry G. Kammerer '57; my son, andthere is a Cornellian in each of the in-tervening generations back to GeorgeBehringer. The boy's mother was M.Edna Schoonover '30, who is a grand-daughter of the first graduate. Hisgreat-uncle is Benjamin F. Behringer'16, who is the son of the first graduate.

That misses making a fourth-genera-tion Cornellian of the young man byjust a whisker, and for the whisker Isubstitute, from my side of the family,his father, his aunt, his uncle, his cousin,and two cousins from my generation.That adds up to nine Cornell relatives.

His Heart at CornellEDITOR: When we wish to hear thelatest in lecturers, we go to the PasadenaCity College Tuesday Evening Forum,out here. Harold McClellan, a localpaint company president, lectured on"Italy Today." He had interviewedmany prominent Italians; among them,President Einaudi of Italy. He said thePresident ended his interview by sayinghis heart was in the New World: he hada son and two grandchildren at CornellUniversity!

We swelled up like pious Cornelliansand said nothing, but our hearts wereback in Ithaca. You never can tell whenyou are going to get a jolt like that, butit comes pretty often in this excitingNew World where Cornell is up front!

—FREDERICK R. HIRSH, JR. '26

Professor Mario Einaudi, Government,came to the University in 1945 from Harvardand Fordham; is now chairman of the De-partment. He is a popular teacher; has about400 students for his twice-a-week lectures ofa Freshman course on Comparative Govern-ment. He teaches also "Development of Mod-ern Political Thought," "Contemporary Po-litical Thought," "Public Control of Eco-nomic Life," and a course on "ConstitutionalGovernment in Europe."—Ed.

Spring Practice NeededEDITOR: This is an appeal to all alumnito write to President Deane W. Malottto urge that he and other Ivy Leaguecollege presidents restore spring footballpractice.

There is not a good Ivy League teamthis year, and that has been true, forthe last ten years or so. It is due en-tirely to the lack of spring practice,which reduces injuries; improves schol-

arship, because it keeps boys out of mis-chief; and makes a much better team.Ivy League players need more practicethan in other colleges where it is easierfor athletes to get in and stay. I am surethat parents of football players preferthat they go to colleges where they canhave the most practice and all-year-'round supervision.

And while thinking about football,remember that the best coach in theworld can't make the best team withoutthe best players. The alumni must seekand send the best athletes in their areato Cornell if they want winning teams.

Cornell Alumni!—if our teams don'twin it is our fault, not the coaches';"Lefty" James, in particular, has provedhis ability to field a fine team withless than average material and whenplagued with many injuries. He is youngand inspiring, improving with each yearof experience, and we must help him.

How In Mt/ Vme IIT GETS more and more difficult foran Old Timer to conceal his infirmi-ties, and the inroads of hardeningopinions, in his reports from theQuadrangle. The seasonal activitiesthat once revolved in a deliberatemanner now seem to whirl. Only yes-terday we were concerned with set-tling the Class of 1958. Now, havingtaken in our stride a football season,a political campaign, a housepartyweek end, and a hurricane, Campusdwellers are looking up their goo-loshes and earmuffs. It's confusing.The Groves of Academe once de-signed for men of contemplationseem dedicated now to men of quickdecision and prompt action hard fora Pantaloon to keep up with in areportorial capacity. Even the debateon whether the hurricane or thehouseparty week end caused thegreater disturbance to our serenityendured for no more than a day ortwo!

The autumn, always the pleasant-est of seasons in the hills that hold theFinger Lakes in place, has been a pe-culiarly lovely one this year. Themeteorological, social, and politicaltempests referred to have been vio-lent in their impact, but brief in theirduration. The summer held overthrough October, to get most of thenew structures now rearing them-selves roofed over and glassed in to adegree that will permit the craftsmento work on their interiors through thewinter. And through it all, it has beendifficult for the contemplative schol-ar to concentrate on either the pastor the future because of the distract-ing beauty of the present softened bythe blue mists that fill every depres-sion in the Inlet Valley and the Peaksof Danby. Such surroundings help tomake the pressing problems whichconfront us seem less pressing. Eventhe glacier which created most of thebeauty that encircles us was unhur-ried.

In such a setting, Campus dwellersare able to observe with tranquilitythe discussions that go on amongothers whose clashing views do notpromote tranquility. At the moment,there seems to have developed in in-dividuals remote from Ithaca a grow-ing desire that students should betaught what to think in many ques-tions: the restoration of the goldstandard, for example; the Hamil-tonian philosophy of government;free enterprise and what is sometimesreferred to as "The American Wayof Life." All of these suggestions have

behind them a considerable body ofrespectable and solvent opinion; butthey make small headway with theserene, who feel it the task of thescholar-teacher to tempt his studentsto think, but never what to think.

What if a handful of buddingthinkers think wrong at the start, solong as they think at all? To youthis given the ability to grow up andmodify its views as the result of read-ing, contemplation, and worldly ex-perience. Only in rare cases is matur-ity capable of scrapping the opinionsthat once with fatal docility it per-mitted somebody else to implant. Thebiological truth that decay startswhen growth stops applies as well tothe mind as to the body.

If you don't want your offspringexposed to new ideas at variance withyour own, perhaps you'd better notsend him to Cornell or any othergood college where he's likely to hearpresented all four sides of every ques-tion, to the early confusion of theopinions he brought with him, all asneatly arranged for him as his home-town wardrobe. And you mustn't bealarmed by early symptoms of apos-tacy. Even Industry and Free Enter-prise, whose objects are sometimessupposed to conflict with those ofAcademe, are more and more re-cruiting their ranks at the bottomfrom the Groves. Moreover, thebuyers who annually go out to lookover the young stock which the uni-versities are about to throw on themarket don't concern themselves toomuch, we are told, with opinions.They seem to prefer specimens whogive evidence of having flexible mindsand the ability to change them. Nomore than the Campus dwellers dothey want the cannon-fodder thatcomes to them incapable of discard-ing inherited ideas or absorbing newones.

So perhaps we'd all better get agood night's sleep and leave educa-tion at the university level to the uni-versities, industry to industry, andyouth to do its own thinking, how-ever erroneously at the start. There isno great danger, in a University thatis set upon a Hill where the inmatescan look off long distances, of any-body going so far astray on the goldstandard or the Hamiltonian philos-ophy that he can't get back on thestraight track before anybody catcheshim at it. That goes alike for thePantaloons and the boys and girlsjust starting out in this thinking busi-

ness.

On the Sporting Side - Bq "Sίdeiίner

Football Wins Continue

FOOTBALL VICTORIES over Syracuse andDartmouth gave the Varsity a chance tohave a winning season after a dismalstart. With one game left, with Penn-sylvania on Thanksgiving Day at Phila-delphia, the team had won four and lostfour. A most remarkable reversal ofform took place at mid-season and ateam which could do little except com-plete passes in the early games devel-oped into a well-balanced, sharp-strikingunit.

Cornell 14, Syracuse 6

This was a hard-fought and cleanly-played contest. With a crowd of 25,000on Schoellkopf Field, it marked the lastgame for at least the next three yearsbetween the upstate New York rivals. Itwas their thirty-second football gameand they had a chilly, but beautifullyclear, November 6 day for it. Cornellwas an alert, well-coordinated unit inwinning its third straight game in threeweeks after losing the first four. Syra-cuse was a determined and rugged op-ponent and the Red team played it"cozy" after taking a 14-point lead inthe third quarter. This explains Syra-cuse's statistical advantage, but statis-tics do not properly portray the story ofthis game. Cornell was the better teamthroughout.

From the time Cornell stopped Syra-cuse's opening thrust on the 30 andRichard C. Jackson '55 got off a beauti-ful thirty-yard sprint on the first playfrom scrimmage, it was definitely a Cor-nell day. But the Red proceeded charilyafter taking the lead with 14 points be-cause it wanted this victory, the first overSyracuse since 1951.

A Meade Touchdown Counts!

Cornell got its first touchdown justafter the first seven minutes of play whenE. Richard Meade '56 ran around leftend for eight yards, added another at12:32 of the third on Dick Jackson'sfourth-down leap over right tackle, andWilliam DeGraaf '56 kicked all thepoints. These points were important too.It was Cornell's game to all intents andpurposes, until reserve back JimmyBrown, 205-pound Negro speedster, tookover for injured Art Troilo of Syracuseand really started giving Cornell the mis-eries. He carried the ball seventeen timesfor 151 yards and Cornellians can thankquarterback Mickey Rich for not call-ing on him more often. This hard run-ning boy, Brown, ran fifty-four yards for

220

the Orange score in 1:45 of the fourth.Two Red shirts had hold of him, but hebrushed them off, faked a couple of oth-ers out of the path, and was over. RayPerkins missed the point.

It was an opportunistic Red team, onethat capitalized on almost every situa-tion. They did, however, miss a coupleof scoring opportunities.

The first Cornell score came after full-back Bill Wetzel fumbled and RichardC. Mathewson '55 of Plainfield, N.J.—agreat end on this day— recovered on the17. Jackson ran twice to the 8 andMeade took a well-maneuvered hand-off from DeGraaf and scooted aroundleft end and none could touch him.

Guard James K. Van Buren '55 ofAtlanta, Ga., continued the preeminentstyle he has shown since he returnedafter a broken wrist in pre-season playand contributed greatly to the four vic-tories registered since his return. Heblocked the only Syracuse punt of theday in the third period when he thun-dered through the Syracuse line, leapedinto the air, and knocked the ball backover kicker Wetzel's head. Wetzel pickedit up, attempted to run, and he retreatedtoward his own goal line trying to avoidthe clutches of end John H. Morris '55,but Morris is pretty difficult to avoidand Wetzel was slammed to earth on the5. It took four tries from there, but Jack-son made it on the last one.

Officials Halt Both Teams

Dick Meade, the benighted one, hadanother one of his magnificent "fizzles."With the score 7-0 for the Red late inthe second period, DeGraaf pitched ashort, flat pass to Meade about ten yardsbeyond the scrimmage line. Meade ma-neuvered upfield beautifully, taking ad-vantage of his blockers and feinting theSyracusans out of harm's way. He wentseventy-two yards and was hit by Rich ashe dove over. As has been the case somany times with Meade, this spine-tin-gling episode went for nothing as the of-ficials ruled Cornell offside. To make itworse, Meade's knee was twisted on thetackle and he left the game and wasunable to return.

Syracuse lost the advantage of a beau-tiful long run, too, on an official's call.After the second Red score, Perkinscaught the relaxed Cornell team by sur-prise and ran the kick-off back seventy-seven yards before he was caught frombehind by Arthur L. Boland '57 on the7. It was nullified, though, by a clippingpenalty and the ball was eighty-four in-stead of seven yards away. Syracuse lost

another good scoring chance when it waspenalized for illegal formation and afifteen-yard penalty brought the ballback to the 23 from the 8.

The Cornell line stopped the otherSyracuse thrusts. Jim Van Buren, Leon-ard J. Oniskey '55, Stephen W. Miles'57, Dick Mathewson were outstandingand Oniskey, Miles, Morris, DeGraaf,and Bedrossian played all sixty minutes.Coach George K. James used only sev-enteen players. The summary:

Cornell 40, Dartmouth 21

In the tradition of this exciting series,this game was a spectacular one, repletewith long runs, rugged line play, gener-ally fervent action. Not as close as somein the past, it was nevertheless a typicalCornell-Dartmouth football game.

The first play was a ninety-eight-yardtouchdown run by that fleet halfback,Dick Jackson. It was a triumph of per-fect team coordination and timing. Hewas untouched by Green hands as histeammates cleared his path right up thewest side of the field. Dick Mathewsonbowled over one proximate Indian andJim Van Buren turned two others asideand there were none who could thencatch the Duke of Athens, Pa., in hishappy gambol. Jackson had a big dayfor himself. He ran for two touchdownsand for a total of 235 yards and inter-cepted two passes. His second TD, onlyslightly less sensational than his first, wasa fifty-four yard run on a quick openerthrough left guard. He threaded his way

through the secondary and outraced theIndians to the goal line.

It was a great day for all the Cornellbacks. Billy DeGraaf was superb in hisquarterbacking role, and as a runner,too. He almost completely eschewed thepassing attack which had proved Cor-nell's strongest and sometimes its onlyscoring threat of early season. The onlypass completed was by Arthur W. Sosen-ko '57, Billy's relief, who threw one toJack Morris for a touchdown.

Perfect Coordination Brings ThrillDeGraaf combined with Dick Meade

on one of the great runs of this game, orthis year, or in all the years. It was aplay that traversed eighty-eight yards.It came midway in the second period.Captain Lou Turner, a good halfback,punted to the Cornell 8. Captain Guy H.Bedrossian '55 bulled through for fouryards. Starting on the 12, DeGraaf, run-ning his favorite option play, broke tothe left and into the clear. Meade taggedalong at his left elbow. As Billy nearedthe sidelines near the 50 and hostilehands approached, the Clifton, N.J. boylateralled it off to his friend and neigh-bor from South River, Senor Meade.Meade came to a full stop, gave De-Graaf a chance to block out a couple ofIndians, then completely reversed hisfield and, after circling back somewhat,he took off for pay dirt and outran thedefenders. It was a doozy! And the mostamazing thing about it was that Meadewas permitted to have it count. Everyother long run he has ever made hasbeen called back for some rule-infrac-tion. He has lost more than 300 yardsin this way.

Against Dartmouth, Jackson ran tentimes from scrimmage for a total of 112yards. DeGraaf ran seven times for sev-enty-one yards. He ran fifty yards withthe second-half kickoff.

Team Hits Its Stride

This was the fourth straight win ofthe season after four straight defeats.Hardly anyone would recognize the Cor-nell team as the one of the first monthof the season. This was a sharp, light-ning-fast, well-balanced team. It hadverve and when opportunities came theywere utilized.

Only in the first quarter and after theopening touchdown did the Red teamappear phlegmatic. Dartmouth had itshosts in trouble the whole period andwas on top, 7-6, at the finish of it. OnceDartmouth had put over its score, whichcame after an interception on the 28,then Cornell got going. It scored threetimes in the second period and had thestrength and poise on defense to fight offan undiscouraged, tough, fighting Dart-mouth team.

It was the fifth straight Cornell winpver Dartmouth, its longest winningstreak and longest lead in the thirty-

1} 1954

eight-game series that now stands attwenty-one wins for Cornell, sixteenwins for Dartmouth, and one tie.

The day was warm, sunny, and beau-tiful and there was a crowd of 18,000people at Schoellkopf Field, many ofthem houseparty guests. They saw thehighest scoring game here since Cornelltopped Colgate, 39-27, in 1939.

Dartmouth had a great passer in BillBeagle, but he was victimized by a Cor-nell defense which rushed him badlyand intercepted five of his passes. He wasaided in the Green cause considerablyby Turner, hard-running right halfback,who gained 110 yards in ten tries, butthere were no runners with the speed ofCornell runners Jackson, Meade, Bo-land, Benson; no fullback like Bedros-sian; and Beagle cannot run like hiscounterpart, DeGraaf. And that was thestory.

Freshmen Continue Wins

FRESHMAN football team won convinc-ing victories over Syracuse freshmen, 25-12, November 5 at Syracuse, and overWyoming Seminary, 32-7, November 13at Ithaca.

Robert J. McAnifT of Salisbury, Mass.,

came into full flower as a runner in thesetwo games. He was the personality whobroke wide apart the tough game withSyracuse with his brilliant open-fieldsprinting. He romped for sixty-six, sixty-four, and forty-six-yard touchdowns andpersonally outgained the whole Syracuseteam. Irvin Roberson of Philadelphia,Pa., although overshadowed by McAn-iff in this contest, also ran thirty-oneyards for another TD.

The game was played in ArchboldStadium, on a muddy field, but the Redplayers seemed little bothered by theheavy footing. They outgained the Or-ange 269 yards to 174. In passing, theOrange hit for seven of fourteen foreighty-five yards and Cornell connectedon five of seven for sixty-four yards. Mc-AnifT's first touchdown came at twelveminutes of the first quarter and the 6-0score stayed that way until the freneticfourth when Cornell made 19 and Syra-cuse, 12.

After a rather slow start against Wy-oming, the Freshmen demonstrated aversatility of attack that completelyoverwhelmed the gritty but outmannedprep school eleven. McAnifT, halfbackRobert J. Flynn of Ithaca, end GeraldT. Knapp of Watertown, center ThomasA. Akins of Philadelphia, and fullbackJohn D. Roome of Lakeville madetouchdowns, and Roome made the extrapoints. Roome and Akins scored on passinterceptions. Gornell team led, 25-7, atthe half, and Coach Pat Filley was ableto play the whole squad during the sec-ond half. There was no scoring in thethird period and Roome made his touch-down in the fourth.

150's Close Season

T H E 150-POUND football team closed itsseason November 13 with a 14-8 loss toPennsylvania on Upper Alumni Field.The defeat was the fourth in a row aftertaking the first one with Villanova.

Cornell started out valiantly by driv-ing sixty-five yards for the first touch-down in the opening period. Playingwithout the services of its ace quarter-back, Gerald T. McDonald '55, the teamlooked good under the directorship ofHerbert F. Fisher '55 as it ground outconsistent yardage. Fisher went over ona sneak play to make it 6-0. Penn cameback quickly to a 7-6 lead by virtue of asixty-five-yard punt-return from its own30 to the Cornell 5. Three plays later, itscored and made the point. Soon afterhalf time, Lee J. Finger '55 blocked aPenn punt and tackled the Penn kicker,who fell on the ball behind his goal line,for a 2-point safety. This 1-point leadwas short-lived, however, as Penn scoredon a buck over center after a seventy-sixyard pass play took the ball to the Red 3.

Soccer Season Ends

VARSITY SOCCER team lost its last gameof the year, 0-1, to a Dartmouth teamwhich had an unbeaten seasonal record.Cornell had a 5-5 record.

The lone goal in the well-played andevenly-matched game came in 8:40 ofthe last period and was made by EmilStigum. Co-captain Roy W. Tellini '55,fullback, goalie Donald P. Greenberg'55, Jaime M. Ginard '55, and Robert J.Verstandig '57 were outstanding for Cor-nell. The Dartmouth goalie made severaldifficult saves of point tries by Ginardand Verstandig as the Red team strovedesperately to score.

November 4, Cornell defeated Samp-son at Sampson Air Force Base, 5-2.Jaime Ginard scored 2 goals and PedroGonzales '57, Wolf Preschel '56, and BobVerstandig made the others.

Rosenbaum's time was 25:48.4 andhe had severe competition from Prince-ton's Jackson S. Vodrey. The Princeton-ian led Rosenbaum most of the way. Ros-enbaum finally passed him with about400 yards to go and led him by twenty-five yards at the finish. Coach Louis C.Montgomery had to make a last-minutesubstitution when Charles Trayford '55was taken ill with a virus infection. How-ard E. Shearer '57 took his place and didwell in placing twenty-third, the fifthCornellian over the line. Donald T. Far-ley '55 was fourth; Paul W. Loberg '55,seventh; Michael T.

An Undergraduate Observes

Celebrants All

CRAMMING as much into two days—three for some diehard partiers—Cor-nellians fearful of abolishment of JuniorWeekend, which is in the wind, carriedon in grand style, from the looks of thehalf-closed eyes and disheveled appear-ances the Monday morning after the bigblast. Although the Ithaca police termedthe Fall Weekend "quiet and successful,"we can only go along with the latter, formuch went on outside the scrutiny of thealways-wary patrolmen. With the IFCproblems committee on the lookout,however, the general trend was towardthe sane and sober, but sleepless. Ourrejuvenated football team, finally play-ing the ball expected of them, impressedall and created an added impetus to for-get the cares of college life. John L.Beckel, Jr. '55 of Malverne, chairman ofthe Weekend, did a commendable job inlining up the activities which includedthe Barton Hall Dance called "Nep-tune's Grotto," featuring Ray McKinleyand Claude Thornhill. The theme of "ItSounds Fishy to Me" was further car-ried out with the sign-display contest un-der the title "Mermaid Murmurs" andthe Friday night rally "Hook, Line, andSink 'em." Besides the combined Dart-mouth-Cornell Glee Club concert, Dra-matic Club show "Dark of the Moon,"and various and sundry sporting events,the usual round of Dixieland parties,milk punch fiascoes, smooth dancebands, and cocktail parties rolling inliquor that some day should float Cornellaway, rounded out the "quiet" Weekendwhich may be the last before the spring.

From the sounds of the petty wranglingthat has been going on between Octa-gon and Komos Aeidein, there will neverbe any solution to the question of a pro-posed merger. Both organizations wereformed to bring out the artistic, dra-matic, and musical talents of studentsat Cornell. Octagon, organized first, us-ually presents an original musical com-edy in the spring and Komos tries to fitin a number of shows throughout theyear. But with the meager audienceslately for these two competing groups,financial doom will come for one orboth. The only solution which seems log-ical is a merger, so that the best talentscan be combined to put on at least onegood show a year. This show wouldhave a fighting chance to become a suc-cess without the competition. However,a bit of politics and selfish interests seemto be entering into the picture, and bothgroups want to make few concessions,

December 1} 1954

but hold the power themselves. Fromone undergraduate looking on from theoutside, this proposed merger would beall for the good: a fine show could beput on with pooled talents; attendanceat shows would be higher; and financeswould then become sound. The hatchetshould be buried and personal motivesput aside to give the Campus some greatshows.

"This I Believe," Edward R. Murrow'sradio program, broadcasts this fall thevoice of Irene R. Adler '55 of Water-ford. A Junior in Home Economics,Miss Adler was invited to record forMurrow's program a condensation ofher Farm & Home Week speech,"Faith," which won a prize in the ElsieVan Buren Rice contest.

Sigma Delta Chi, professional journal-istic fraternity, honored The CornellDaily Sun by awarding it first prizes forboth news and feature photography.Sun photography editor Gordon E.White '55 of Mountain Lakes, N.J., andRoss L. Wagner '56 of Elizabeth, N.J.,staff photographer, were responsible forthe awards made at the fraternity con-vention in Columbus, Ohio.

A HOAX that could have only been ac-complished by collegians and of propor-tions rivaling the WVBR episode of 1952rocked the campuses of Syracuse andCornell with laughter Friday morningbefore the two met in football. A newsociety led by guiding lights of the Sun,twenty-one in number, published an ex-act replica of The Syracuse DailyOrange, Syracuse University's studentnewspaper. This society, appropriatelytermed Ithaca's Only Syracuse News-paper (IOSN), distributed 3000 copiesof the bogus issue in Syracuse before theoriginal hit the streets. This cleverlywritten parody-issue secretly printed inCortland, contained a million chuckles.Supposedly published to mark the endof the Syracuse-Cornell football rivalry,the hoax went off like clockwork whenD-Day arrived. Pressmen in Syracusewere persuaded subtly that Cornellwanted The Daily Orange printed laterthan usual; this allowed the substitute tohit the campus and create the desiredeffect, which was shocking disbelief andcomplete approval. The issue was so pop-ular that some sold for more than $1 onthe black market. This was a real trib-ute to the imagination of Richard J.Schaap '55 of Freeport, editor-in-chiefof The Sun, Philip M. Levine '55 of NewYork City, Sun managing editor, andCharles L. Bernstein '56 of Woodmere,staff member.

Meek,the group also visited the Waldorf-As-toria and Duvernoy Bakeries.

Moving with swift, decisive action andshowing the power the InterfraternityCouncil holds, the steering committeeplaced on probation Phi Epsilon Pi fra-ternity for a violation of the social code.This social probation for fifty-four daysuntil December 31, 1954, is for failureto have two chaperone couples at mixedsocial events. There were supposedlyover twenty instances in which this oc-curred dating back to February, 1954,and the IFC felt that the chaperone re-quirement was an essential part of thesocial code at Cornell. This is the secondinstance this year in which the Interfra-ternity Council has handled violators ofits by-laws. The first instance involvedPhi Gamma Delta, which was fined $50for illegal rushing tactics.

It is a summary of the 1953activities of the city of Cortland, includ-ing zoning, school systems, city organi-zation, expenditures, and financing.

After a long discussionin a special meeting called to considerfootball, the University Faculty unani-mously adopted this resolution: "Re-solved, that it is the insistent opinion ofthis Faculty that the continuance of foot-ball as a game for undergraduates de-pends upon a thoroughgoing and effec-tive revision and enforcement of therules regulating the game and the selec-tion and conduct of players, officials,and coaches, with a view to securinggreater safety of life and limb and high-er standards of honor and fair play."

If you wanted to buy 1 or 1,000,000 fans,aside from the household variety, chancesare you would wind up in one or more ofthree companies of which Buffalo Forge Co.is probably the first (American Blower Co.,Columbus, Ohio, and L.

From Lafayette H.S.,Buffalo, and Mercersburg Academy, respec-tively, they lived together in Ithaca andhave worked together ever since—43 years.Chuck was asst. one year and business mgr.one year for The Sun.

Chuck was engineer officer and naval avi-ator during 1st war; later in engineeringwork with the late Lute Emmert and Chi-cago district mgr.

Nick (Wilber A. ) Carter, the good .look-ing gentleman above, who lives at 8741 Ar-cadia Ave., Detroit, Mich., has just recentlyretired from Detroit Edison Co. Nick wentto work with this company immediatelyfollowing his graduation from Cornell Uni-versity in 1913 as a Mechanical Engineerand has been with them ever since. Hestarted in as an experimental and researchengineer and has worked in the researchand production departments of the com-pany throughout his career. More than 40years of service with the one company! Andcontinuously, in research work. It wouldseem that in that interval it would become

December 1, 1954

not just simply search and research, butwould be search, research, re-research, re-re-research, ad infinitum!

Nick is a known authority on automaticcontrol systems for power plant boilers andturbines, and he is being retained as a con-sultant on the company's River Rouge gen-erating plant project. He will also act asconsultant to Edison's Nuclear Power De-velopment Department. He has been activeon the civic affairs committee of the En-gineering Society of Detroit, especially inwork on smoke abatement and reduction ofair pollution in the Detroit area. He is amember of the American Society of Me-chanical Engineers, in whose journal he haspublished a number of technical articles. Healso belongs to the Detroit Yacht Club, theEngineers Club of New York, the CornellClub of New York, and Tau Beta Pi honorsociety. Congratulations, Nick, on a lifetimejob well done—with much more to come.

While idly glancing through the NewYork Times one Sunday last summer, Iwandered by mistake into the society pagesand my eye was caught by the picture of abride, a Mrs. Barry McGill. Not being asyet entirely blind, I was impressed by thebeauty and grace of the young lady, so thatI read the accompanying column only todiscover that she was the daughter,-Barbara,of Bunny (Earl H.) Bunce of Palmerton, Pa.I can't say positively, because these wed-ding accounts are so engrossed with thecostuming of the bride, the bridesmaids, etc.that they mention very little about that for-gotten man, the father of the bride, but atlast account, Bunny was with New JerseyZinc Co. and, I believe, still is.

Barbara and her new husband are bothmembers of Oberlin (Ohio) College facultyand will reside there. Bunny, if I have putout the wrong information about you andyour business setup, just write me a letterbawling me out and I'll retract.

Meanwhile, so long.

Lewis B. (Hendy) Hendershot and hiswife were in Ithaca for the Syracuse game.They got here late, so when he tried to tele-phone me we had already left for Schoell-kopf. If you had written ahead instead ofafter, Hendy, I could have sent you my seatnumbers and we could at least have chattedbetween halves. Hendy once gave me alovely parchment on which he had collectedthe autographs of a raft of Faculty greats ofour Senior year, including Andrew D., Ja-cob Gould Schurman, Davy Hoy, LibertyHyde Bailey, Uncle Pete Smith, and thelike. No fewer than seven of them havebuildings now named after them on the AgCampus. It's one of my most treasured pos-sessions. He says he hopes to visit Ithacaagain next spring. He's an officer of theBerkshire Life Insurance (or Assurance)Co., Pittsfield, Mass.

Cornell affairs help keep Carl Wardfrom vegetating. He attended the meetingof the Cornell Aeronautical Laboratory inBuffalo, Nov. 11, and will be here Dec. 10as chairman of the Engineering Councilmeeting. He is also working with LloydSmith, PhD '30, chairman of the PhysicsDepartment, on a project for the GraduateSchool.

Gleanings from the papers: Hal Halsted

continued to figure in the sports sections ofthe New York papers last summer with asuccession of regatta victories in Star boatChuckle V. . . . Harold Riegelman wrote aletter to the Herald Trib during the recentcampaign .\ . The same paper reported thatClarence Wimpfheimer had become chair-man of the board of 109-year-old A. Wimpf-heimer & Bro., Inc. He was succeeded byhis son Jacques as president, the fourth gen-eration to hold that post. The paper calls itthe "largest velvet manufacturer in thecountry." A few days later the Wall StreetJournal, in a long article on profit sharingwith employees, had the following para-graph on another related company ofClarence's: " *The partners in velvet' ofAmerican Velvet Co., of Stonington, Conn.,found their union wages sweetened 24%last year through their cut of the profits,while other textile companies were cuttingwages and fleeing New England."

The Wall Street Journal had a dispatchfrom Cleveland about an offer to purchaseWellman Engineering Co. I couldn't figureout whether that was related to ScrubbyWellman's S. K. Wellman Co. or not. Youmight clarify the matter, Scrub. . . . FrankSullivan, known as the Sage of SaratogaSprings, had a short short story in ThisWeek Magazine, July 25, entitled "How toBeat the Horses." There was some moral in-volved about sticking up for one's rights inan accident case, but it got lost in a blazeof huge winnings while killing time waitingfor the hearing to start. . . . Dr. Ivan G.(Even Ivan) Howe retired Oct. 1 for rea-sons of health after serving 11 years asdirector of the New York State Departmentof Agriculture and Markets Bureau of Ani-mal Industry. During his administration theBureau has seen the formulation of a suc-cessful brucellosis control program, eradi-cation of sheep scab, improvement in thephysical standards of commission auctions,eradication and control of vesicular exan-thema of swine through garbage cooking,and other advancements in livestock publichealth. Dr. and Mrs, Howe live at 6 RidgeRoad, Delmar, which is in the Albany area;they have three children.

Hardly had I written the copy for theseNotes for the Nov. 15 issue, in which I men-tioned William F. (Eugenics Bill) Fried-man's promotion, than Bill hit the headlinesin the N.Y. Herald Trib. of Oct. 19 in theso-called Peterson spy case. He appearedas a government witness. The Trib calledhim "one of the nation's top cryptanalysts,"then went on to say: "He was formerly prin-cipal cryptanalyst to the War Department,and prior to the war was chief of the SignalIntelligence Service. He is the 1948, andDec. 31, 1952." Just what the last fourwords mean is something the Trib com-positor might be able to tell us; otherwiseit is something for Bill himself to decipher.

— CORNELL — 1955By S. Jack Solomon 320

152 West 42d Street, New York 36, N.Y.

You will note above the happy and smil-ing faces of many '20-ites who attended theClass Dinner at the Cornell Club in NewYork, November 5. All I can say is thatthese dinners are becoming more and morepopular, and once you've attended one, youare bound to return. Several new facesshowed up at the last one. How about bring-ing yours next time?

Don Hoagland, who was out of town onbusiness, flew all the way in from Clevelandjust to attend. Who else was there? Well,here they are: Grigson, Coombs, Fishman,Art Moore, Reich, Van de Boe, Blanke,Benisch, Althouse, Donaldson, "K" Mayer,Sachs, Diamant, Ballou, Stanton, Pregler,Carney, Archibald, Phillips, Edson, andyour snooping reporter. Our adopted Class-mate, Dr. Joseph C. Hinsey, Director ofThe New York Hospital—Cornell MedicalCenter, gave a most interesting talk, andyou can take my word for it, we all had agrand time!

All through the dinner, and afterwards,there was considerable discussion and sug-gestions concerning our coming 35 I N 555REUNION. One idea was to organize thecountry in sections. We went to work onthat right away. For example, there's awhole mob in the Middle West who haven'tshowed up in years. In Chicago alone our1920 Directory lists 15 Classmates, withseveral more in the close vicinity. So-o-o-o,we phoned O. G. Daily at his home (pre-paid, of course) and put him in charge ofrounding up all the 1920 mavericks in thatarea and bringing them back to our '55Rodeo! Howyadoin' O.G.? Reunion Chair-man Sachs is in the throes, convulsions, orwhatever you want to call it, of composingthe first Reunion letter. When his inspired,undiluted, on-the-rocks brainchild reachesyou, be sure to give it your immediate at-tention—if-not sooner!

Just heard that Al Degling has beenelected V.P. in charge of purchasing andtraffic of American Can Co. Al joined Can-co in 1935 (35 as in 35th Reunion) and nowthat he's big brass (or should I say tin fora can company?), he surely can take timeout to return in '55. In your Directory,change the address for G. Graydon Curtis.He's now at 24 North Country Club Drive,Rochester 18, N.Y. Of course he'll be back,for he's practically just around the corner!Daily we are receiving more and more"yesses" from all parts. Lamoureux is com-

ing from Virginia, Littlewood from Mary-land, Lins from Florida, Willis Martin fromMichigan, Merrick from Canada, Mertzfrom Pennsylvania, Perrine from Illinois,Reed from Indiana, Siegel, also from Flo-rida, and he's bringing the Missus. Thenthere's Terry from Missouri and naturallyWhittemore from 'way up Michigan way.A complete listing will reach you in the not-too-distant future.

By the way, did you receive an invitationto "Doozerdoo"? If you did, that means thatyou still owe five bucks for your Class dues—which are long past due! Come on in andjoin the mob! Whazermadderwidyouse?Back again in a couple of weeks. "Abadoo!"

In the last issue I mentioned my visit tothe White Art Museum at Cornell, where Isaw a collection of old-time postcards do-nated by Emerson Crosby Kelly. The namemeant nothing to me, and I made a note tolook up a Classmate who must be an inter-esting person. By coincidence, the very firstenclosure which dropped out of the bulkyenvelope from our treasurer containing thereturned dues slips, was on the letterheadof Dr. Kelly, 269 South Main Ave., Albany.

Like the great Dr. Osier and his disciple,Dr. Cushing, Kelly combines the practiceof medicine with a deep interest in its his-tory. He lectures on medical history in ad-dition to being associate professor of sur-gery at Albany Medical College, whence hewas graduated in 1925. He is treasurer ofthe American Association of the History ofMedicine, former honorary vice-presidentof the Medical Library Association, histo-rian of the Albany County Medical Societyand of the Alumni Association of AlbanyMedical College. (How about taking overmy job in 1956?)

Kelly came to Cornell from Fleischmannsin the Catskills, whence arose his interest inthe Hudson River School of AmericanLandscape Painting. He has authored abook, now ready for press, entitled J. Fran-cis Murphy, N.A., 1853-1921: Tints of aVanished Past. Also ready for press are theresults of Kelly's editing of Gilbert's Bibli-ography of Famous People from Medicaland Scientific Literature. This form of ac-tivity is nothing new to our Classmate. Fivevolumes of Medical Classics emerged fromhis editing from 1936-41, and in 1948 heauthored Encyclopedia of Medical Sources.

Dr. Kelly is attending surgeon at AlbanyHospital, a fellow of the American Collegeof Surgeons, and a member of the New YorkAcademy of Medicine. Let's hope we canget him to future Class dinners so that wecan meet this man of diverse yet collateralinterests.

Carlton P. Cooke, son of the late WalterP. Cooke '91, has rejoined Marine TrustCo. as vice-president. Carl first became anofficer of this Buffalo institution in 1932,leaving in 1939 to become vice-president ofthe Buffalo Savings Bank. He resigned aspresident of the Buffalo Industrial Bank inAugust.

A daughter, Jane Ellen,was graduated in 1951 from Baldwin-Wal-lace College, Berea, Ohio, with a BS in Ed-ucation. We are quoting below from a letterPaul wrote to Johnny Brothers on August 3:

"I do a good deal of research in railroadhistory, and I also do some on early Ohiohistory. I am a member of a literary clubhere which is 55 years old, and which in-cludes only 26 members, taken from variousprofessional groups and business men. It re-minds me a bit of Janus, a club I was luckyenough to be in at Ithaca. I am also presi-dent of the Erie County Historical Society,and I have done some research into localhistory which I find very interesting. By theway, you may know a quarterly magazinepublished by the Great Lakes HistoricalSociety under the auspices of the ClevelandPublic Library, called Inland Seas. It hasmuch concerning ships of the Great Lakesand history of the environs. They are pub-lishing an article either in the fall or winterissue I wrote on pioneer railroads in theGreat Lakes Region of Ohio. Some day Ihope to do a book on a more extendedphase of railroads in the Middle West. I didmy master's work at Ohio State, writing athesis on the history of the Lake Shore &Michigan Southern Railway in Ohio. Thatis now the part of the N.Y.C. which runsfrom Buffalo to Erie, Cleveland, Toledo,Elkhart, South Bend and Chicago. I had alot of fun writing it, and I still have interestin railroads."

A nice letter from Kurtz Hanson, who ispresident of the Champion-InternationalCo. in Lawrence, Mass., states, "The newsform that you sent with the 11 questionsdoesn't seem to jibe as far as I'm concerned.I haven't moved and I haven't changed myjob.

"Bill thinks of the nicest things.He gave me an extension telephone

for the kitchen and onefor the bedroom too."

HERE'S SOMETHING NEW

AND DIFFERENT FOR CHRISTMAS

"Thanks ever so much, son,for the extension telephone.

It's a big comfort to haveit close by in my bedroom."

Give an extension telephone to someone you love

Have you been searching for somethingnew and different in a Christmas gift?Something that is distinctive, yet practical,and will last the whole year through?

You couldn't do better than an exten-sion telephone for Mother or Dad, sonor daughter, or Grandma and Grandpa.For 365 days and nights it will save steps,time and effort. And it's mighty handy,too, in an emergency.

If you'll order in time we'll do our bestto install the extension telephone beforeChristmas.

If that isn't possible, we'll deliver thetelephone, attractively wrapped, so youcan put it under the tree with the othergifts. Then we'll come around after Christ-mas and install it in bedroom, living room,or kitchen, or wherever you wish.

The cost is small—just pennies a dayfor each extension telephone. Just callthe business office of your local Bell tele-phone company.
