ROLLINS ALUMNI RECORD No. 1 & 2 JANUARY - FEBRUARY, 1962 VOL. XXXIX

ANIMATED MAGAZINE VIEWS FUTURE Praise for Rollins College in its ef-

forts to meet the needs of "the gate- way to the moon" dominated its famous Animated Magazine Sunday, Feb. 25.

In a tribute to the vitality of Rollins, Gov. Farris Bryant, Sen. George Smathers, NASA Administrator Rob- ert C. Seamans, Jr., and members of the faculty noted the nearly astonish- ing impact the Winter Park College is making on the Central Florida area.

Dr. Robert C. Seamans, Doctor of Science

Bryant said Rollins was without a peer in the south in cooperating in space age education programs.

Sen. George Smathers said that a great forward step had been taken by Rollins in subscribing funds for the establishment of the first institute for research in the space sciences in Flor- ida.

"What Rollins College has done to- day will not only affect the future of Florida, but the nation and the world as well," he said.

Smathers, given an honorary Dr. of Humanities degree in 1955 from the college, termed himself a graduate of Rollins "once removed".

The senator called for a renaissance of education in the state and nation to meet the challenge of Soviet Rus- sia. He reported that travelers from Russia told of libraries operating 24 hours a day and students impatient for knowledge and education.

He said Americans must meet this challenge by intensifying and broad- ening the training of its young people.

Robert Seamans, associate adminis- trator of NASA, came to the magazine from Cape Canaveral, where he met with astronaut John Glenn and other officials of the project Mercury pro- gram.

He said results of the meetings and examination of data gathered during the orbital flight would be available to the public in four or five weeks.

CONTRIBUTION

Governor Farris Bryant inserted a news "scoop" into the makeup of the 1962 Animated Magazine when he announced that the Citizens Na- tional Bank of Orlando had decided to contribute one per cent of its net profits before taxes to Rollins College. He praised the gift and urged other businesses throughout the state to follow the lead set by the bank in supporting private edu- cation. He also commented favor- ably on Rollins' offer of space and administrative help to the off-cam- pus engineers degree program now authorized in Florida. Clarence M. Gay, president of the Citizens Na- tional Bank, is a trustee of the Col- lege and a member of the executive committee of the board.

Governor Bryant, Doctor of Laws

Cooperation of the Govt, industry, and private and public colleges was necessary, Seamans said, for the shot at Canaveral to come off successfully.

"Rollins' Space Institute," Seamans continued, "will have the opportunity to participate in one of the greatest adventures of all time."

He said that the various space pro- grams now under way, Apollo, Gem- ini among others, would enable man to cast off the cloak of the atmosphere and discover the mystery of where man and the universe came from.

An innovation in the magazine was introduced this year. A 'Rollins In- sert' was made by members of the fac- ulty. They gave their own personal ideas on the future of Rollins.

Dr. Dan A. Thomas, director of Rol- lins' graduate program in physics, noted that 90 pet. of man's scientific knowledge has been gained in the lifetime of many persons living today.

Thus, he said, we must train our young people to meet problems which do not even exist yet today. He com- mented that men now have control of the power to destroy themselves. We need more knowledge and inspiration to control this power.

Rollins can't look to other schools for solutions to today's problems, he said, but must find the way itself.

Dr. Dudley E. DeGroot, of Rollins department of sociology and anthro- pology, observed that three-fourths of mankind live in the neolithic age of stone. He called for the man who lives in the world of atoms to aid these stone age persons — who live both here at home and abroad—in or- der to further the goals of man.

A liberal arts college like Rollins best promotes the skills and abilities of the young, he said. He warned that unless proper training and imagina- tion is given the young members of the atom society, all society will be destroyed by the stone-age men.

The Rollins Decoration of Honor was given to William Roy Shelton, Jr. '48 by Pres. Hugh F. McKean for his accomplishments in the field of writing and journalism. Animated Magazine publisher Edwin P. Gran- berry presented the Time Magazine writer to the president for the award.

Mary Gadway conducted the Rollins Men's Choir in the musical page of the magazine. This was another in- novation in the famous series origi- nated bv Pres. Hamilton Holt, late president of Rollins.

Senator Smathers, Hamilton Holt Medal

Dr. Bruce B. Wavell, mathematician, developer of a new system of logic, and member of Rollins philosophy de- partment, said that while in the next few years, Rollins will tend to larger enrollment and facilities, in the next five or six years the school will be- come part of a complex of institutions of higher learning.

CONVOCATION SPEAKER

His Excellency Koichiro Asakai, Ambassador Extraordinary and Plenipotentiary of Japan, honored guest of the College, was the Founders Week Convocation speaker. He became an honorary Alumnus when President McKean presented him an honorary Doctor of Laws degree.

Japan's national existence and her strategic position in the Free World hangs in the balance in the trade is- sue, Koichiro Asakai, Ambassador of Japan, said here Monday, Feb. 26.

Restriction of Japanese imports by segments of United States industry creates the major problem in the country's relations today, Ambassador Asakai revealed at the Founders Week Convocation.

Population pressure, he said, de- mands that Japan's national economy grows.

"To support this expansion, Japan must import additional quantities of many industrial raw materials, capital goods and advanced technology. We can pay for this only by expanding our exports."

Asakai indicated that from recent experience, it seems the economic problems that exist between Japan and the United States can be solved if they are not ignored or allowed to grow unnecessarily large and bitter.

For the United States, he explained, Japan is not a small, insignificant country. It is the only nation, he add- ed, in East Asia, which is capable of developing sufficient political and economic, if not military power, to serve as a counter-balance to Com- munism in Asia.

Ambassador Asakai predicted then that Japan and the United States have entered upon a new century of rela-

tions, in which their interests will co- incide to an even greater extent.

He was awarded an honorary Doctor of Laws degree for his dedication "to advancing the cause of freedom for the individual everywhere."

Florida's Governor Farris Bryant, Senator George Smathers and NASA administrator Robert C. Seamans, Jr. —speakers on Rollins' famous Ani- mated Magazine Sunday—also receiv- ed honors at the convocation.

An honorary Doctor of Laws degree was conferred on Gov. Bryant for "willingly exchanging the quiet pleas- ure of private life for the worrisome responsibilities of public service."

Sen. Smathers, who received the Doctor of Humanities degree from Rollins in 1955, was awarded the Ham- ilton Holt Medal because he brought distinction to Florida through his statesmanship.

Seamans received the honorary Doc- tor of Science degree for his skillful and imaginative administration in helping the United States close the space probe gap with Russia.

A special citation was also present- ed to G. G. Ware, president of the First National Bank in Leesburg. The Algernon Sydney Sullivan Award was bestowed upon him for "the willing way he lent his talents, energies, and imagination to make the common life of Central Florida so good."

REUNION COMMITTEE Plans and program for the 1962 Re-

union Weekend are nearing comple- tion and committees have been named for the various activities for the three days of Alumni festivities on Campus April 27, 28, 29.

THE ROLLINS ALUMNI RECORD

I SPACE RESEARCH PROMINENT SQUARE DANCERS Rollins College has presented a

space science research institute to , Central Florida and its growing space ' industries.

The institute will be housed in An- dersen Hall, the former Coffey resi- dence on North Ivanhoe Boulevard in Orlando, Rollins President Hugh F. McKean announced at Founders Week Dinner. Andersen Hall was given to the college by Martin Andersen, pub- lisher of the Orlando daily newspa- pers.

McKean said the core of the staff will be four of the country's leading scientists who will devote their time to basic research. This, in the opinion of leaders in the field, is the kind urgently needed.

Other scientists will be added as research contracts are obtained, Rol- lins president indicated.

The permanent staff will be aided in its research by a limited number of graduate students working for the doctoral degree in space science.

Among those consulted by college officials on plans for the institute were: Dr. Wernher von Braun, direc- tor of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA); Dr. Ed- ward Teller, one of the world's great physicists and authorities on space; and Lt. Gen. Bernard Schriever, chief of the Air Force's ballistics division.

Teller, Schriever, and von Braun sent telegrams of congratulations to the college on its momentous decision.

McKean told the assembly of diplo- mats, scientists, scholars and college patrons that "sufficient funds have been subscribed to launch the insti- tute, the first objective of a new 'mas- ter plan' adopted by Rollins trustees to advance the arts and sciences pro- gram at Rollins."

"The new institute for space science will have only one limitation, the ex- tent to which Orlando and Central Florida will support it," cautioned Mc- Kean. "With sufficient funds it will be one of the leading research cen- ters of the world."

McKean announced that the "trus- tees would be 'especially pleased' if the new research institute's work could contribute in any way at all to the Nova project and the other proj- ects our country has to fly man to the stars."

"The trustees are also vitally in- terested in furthering the role of Or- lando and Central Florida as the cen- ter of space developments and as the 'gateway to the moon.' They are con- fident," he said, "that the new re- search institute will help create the intellectual climate sought by the most desirable kind of industries."

"The new research institute will of- fer the people of Orlando and Cen- tral Florida an opportunity to assist in our country's space probes, as well as to benefit from them," McKean noted.

His announcement at the Founders Week Dinner revealed a carefully thought-out plan for Founders Week. The theme of the Animated Magazine was, "What Lies Ahead?"

Governor Farris Bryant of Florida and Ambassador Asakai from Japan take an active part in the All College Square dance in the Student Union Patio follow- ing the picnic Sunday evening on the Horseshoe. Dancing with Governor Bryant is freshman class vice president Carey Howard.

WHO'S WHO ON ANIMATED MAGAZINE Robert C. Seamans, Jr.

Responsible for the general man- agement of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration's operations, Dr. Seamans occupies the top career post at NASA. Previous to this ap- pointment, he was chief engineer of the Radio Corporation of America's Missile Electronics and Controls Di- vision at Burlington, Mass. He receiv- ed his Ph. D. degree from Massachu- setts Institute of Technology, where he held teaching and management po- sitions from 1941-1955. Bruce B. Wavell

Developer of a new system of logic, Dr. Wavell strengthened both the Mathematics and Philosophy Depart- ments when he came to Rollins in 1959. In mathematics, he introduced under- graduate courses and directed the 1961 Rollins Math Summer School. Al- though he now devotes his teaching to philosophy, Dr. Wavell will direct the second Math School this summer. Born in England, he received his Ph.D. degree from London University. Herbert E. Hellwege

A member of Rollins' growing Sci- ence Department, Dr. Hellwege re- ceived his Ph.D. degree from the Uni- versity of Hamburg. His doctoral thesis, Applied Mineralogy, was pub- lished in Germany. He has also pub- lished a work on the development of a new spectrochemical method in geo- chemical research. A consultant for Radiation, Inc., Dr. Hellwege has been at Rollins since 1954. Previously, he was a chemist with Food Research Corporation in New York. Dan A. Thomas

Director of Rollins Graduate Pro- gram in Physics, Dr. Thomas also teaches, writes professional articles, conducts research, and continues his own scientific study. Listed in Amer- ican Men of Science, he has been

teaching at Rollins for 10 years. Dr. Thomas has advanced his own studies the last four summers at the Univer- sity of California, Georgetown Uni- versity, University of Tennessee, and Stanford University. He holds his Ph.D. degree from Vanderbilt Univ. Dudley E. DeGroot

One of Rollins' finest examples of the faculty member who serves his community, Dr. DeGroot is mayor of Maitland, contributes to numerous civic groups, and as a lieutenant in the U. S. Navy is in charge of the Naval Institute Unit in Orlando. He received his Ph.D. degree from Ohio State University. In his fourth year at Rollins, Dr. DeGroot also writes articles for professional publications. George A. Smathers

Recognized as one of the most in- fluential Democrats in the country, Sen. Smathers has been in the U. S. Senate since 1950. Previously, he served two terms in the House of Rep- resentatives. Sen. Smathers has been closely associated with efforts to bet- ter relationships between the United States and Latin America. In 1961, he was elected Secretary of the Demo- cratic Conference, serving as second assistant floor leader to Majority Lead- er Mike Mansfield and the Senate Ma- jority Whip Hubert Humphrey. Farris Bryant

Co-author of Government and Pol- itics in Florida, Gov. Bryant has been active in many state projects and has received many awards during his ca- reer. He is the only Floridian to be twice named by the Florida Junior Chamber of Commerce as one of the state's five outstanding young men. During five terms in the state House of Representatives, his major pro- grams included the improvement of Florida's school system and junior col- lege development.

SHAKESPEAREANA

Large crowd gathered at Strong Hall patio enjoys songs, scenes and soliloquies presented by the Shakespeare class of Nina Oliver Dean seen on steps in back- ground. Shakespeareana has long been a feature of Founders Week.

ENGINEERING SCHOOL Rollins may host a new graduate

branch of the University of Florida School of Engineering next Septem- ber.

The announcement was made re- cently to the Central Florida Develop- ment Committee by Dr. Myron R. Blee, director of the Florida Institute of Continuing University Study, and Dean Joseph Weil of the College of Engineering at the University of Flor- ida.

President McKean has offered sec- tions of the Park Avenue Elementary School, recently acquired by the Col- lege, to the Institute for the engineer- ing school. Administrative help and registration aid also were offered.

The proposed engineering school is part of a graduate engineering pro- gram planned for Florida. Demand for technical schools in Florida is growing to meet the increasing num- ber of engineers required by the state's industrial expansion.

Dr. Blee said that the institute is seriously considering the offer. The facilities offered by Rollins at no charge to the program would alleviate building expenses, he said.

RECORDS

A gift of 60 long playing Columbia Masterworks records has been given to Mills Memorial Library by Colum- bia Records of New York City. The collection, mostly classical music per- formed by the world's leading artists, has been catalogued and placed in the records department.

ANIMAG VIEWS FUTURE (Continued from page 1)

Then it will probably become neces- sary for university status to come to Rollins, he said. While many faculty members may lament the passing of the small intimate class and school, he continued, a good solution to the prob- lem would be a personalized univer- sity that would be integrated at the administrative level but separate in identity of its departments, social life, faculty heads and teachers.

Each division of the college could have sports teams, chapels, fraterni- ties and architecture, he said, while sharing labs, libraries and other major complexes.

He said the Rollins plan, as he fore- sees it "might make a fine college even better."

Dr. Herbert E. Hellwege, a scientist, consultant, and research man, noted that bold originality in deed and thought is necessary to give the Unit- ed States the help it needs at this time in the space age.

He remarked that the new plans and methods employed at Rollins, together with the flexibility of the institution, made it an outstanding place for de- velopment of minds that will "not al- low standard responses" to questions of importance.

"If we do not nourish the curiosity of youth," he said, "we cannot expect to survive."

BOOK-A-YEAR

Actress Greer Garson, an honorary alumna of Rollins, has endowed her third membership in the Book-A-Year Club in honor of her mother, Nina S. Garson.

LIBERAL ARTS BASIC

The decision to start a space pro- gram at Rollins will not alter the college's basic liberal arts founda- tion, President McKean has an- nounced. Instead he said: "The Humanities — philosophy, history, literature, art and music are related to research in space and science since they lead to the development of man. I see the humanities as the most effective way of bringing man to higher levels. We must not only advance in technology, we must advance in goodness if we are worthy of the stars."

SCIENTIFIC RESEARCH PROJECTS

Spectroscopic study of electrical charge distribution in nuclei of atoms- directed by John S. Ross, Associate Professor of Physics, with student as- sistants. Supported by the National Science Foundation.

Paul Thoren '17 Term expires 1962 Frank Williamson '48 Term expires 1963 Robert Robertson '34 Term expires 1964

PUBLICATIONS The Rollins Alumni Record is mailed to all grad- uates and former students monthly October through June each year. It contains general news of the College, alumni activities and class notes and in- formation.

REUNIONS Five Annual Alumni Reunions have been held since the present system was established in 1957. Anni- versary classes (5-10-15-20) are guests of honor each year. All graduates and former students are in- vited and urged to return to the Campus for the three-day celebration each year which is held on the Friday, Saturday and Sunday nearest April 28, the date in 1885, when the College was granted its charter from the State of Florida. Dates for the 1962 Reunion are April 27-28-29.

ALUMNI-COLLEGE RELATIONS The relations between the College and Rollins Alumni Inc., have never been better. Full co- operation is accorded by both in all phases of Alumni-College efforts.

ROLLINS ALUMNI INCORPORATED Articles of incorporation were granted to Rollins Alumni Inc., in 1953. The affairs of Rollins Alumni Inc., are guided by a Board of Directors, made up of fifteen Alumni. Five are elected each year to serve for a term of three years. Officers are elect- ed annually by the Board of Directors.

ALUMNI INTEREST Alumni interest and participation in the affairs of the corporation and the College has been improv- ing each year. This is especially evident by the interest and participation shown each year by the members of the younger classes.

FIELD HOUSE In 1959 Rollins Alumni undertook the task of rais- ing funds for building a Field House on the Campus. It was decided that the building should be suitable for all Physical Education and Athletic needs for both men and women students, and in addition provide space for many other college and com- munity affairs.

With a few exceptions, the campaign has been car- ried on entirely by mail. At present, organizations are being set up in areas where concentration of Rollins Alumni warrants for personal solicitation campaigns.

As of Feb. 28, $111,699.88 had been contributed or pledged to this all Alumni effort.

This is the first major fund raising campaign that we as Alumni have undertaken for our College. The need for such a building is pressing.
