DEDICATION

MORSE SHEPARD ALLEN Goodwin Professor of English

4


To the James A. Goodwin Professor of English who eagerly and selflessly has devoted four fruitful decades to Trini ty, the editors are honored to dedicate the 1961 IvY. Morse Shepard Allen, retiring this year, has been a prominent, vigorous participant in the College's recent unprecedented growth. His positions, which barely suggest his value to the community, have included Chairman of the English Department from 1946 until three years . ago and Secretary of the Faculty from 1934 until 1948. Into aU h~ s lectures, Dr. Allen included not only essential subject ma terial but also provocative and witty footnotes drawn from a seemingly limitless knowledge of just about everything. A good professor, however knows his studen ts as well as his subject; and hence, Dr. Allen's famed unannounced quizzes generally rescued the procrastinator from "forgetting" the assigned reading.路 As an unusu ally adaptable professor who has taught the gamut of T rinity English courses, he will be a difficult man to succeed. But as the instructor of the Shakespeare survey, Dr. Allen will be irrepla ceable . . Born October 13, 1890, Dr. Allen was graduated Ph1 Beta Kappa from Wesleyan University in 1912 and h as 路since served as President of the Connecticut Chapter of .the n a tion al honorary society. His graduate degrees mclude M.A.'s received in 1913 from Wesleyan and Columbia and a Ph . D. from Princeton awarded seven years la ter. Following a term at Oxford, Dr. Allen began h is teachi ng career at Ohio Wesleyan in 1920 and remained there until coming to Trinity in _1924. Dr. Allen has been a member of the Modern Language Association of America, the American Association of U~iv~rsity Professors, the College English Teachers Assoo<l'twn, and is an honorary member of the Poetry Club of Hartford.

William Gwinn Mather Hall

THE STUDENT CENTER SITE

OF

NEW STUDENT CENTER

.................

TRINITY

Ground breaking, November l , 1958.

Reaction to The William Gwinn Mather Hall can probably be summarized best in the following remarks: "What did we ever do before Mather Hall?" or "You don't know what this place has done for student morale." Alumni generally respond with "Boy! We never had anything like this when we were here." or "You don't know how badly we needed a place like this." That Mather Hall has been used since its opening during the downpour of Hurricane Donna on September 12 can be evidenced by the three hundred and fifty-eight .activities scheduled in the building in the fir&t semester of tihis academic year. The vari路ety of activities spread from a WRTC-FM executive board meeting to the Soph Hop which attracted over seven hundred and fifty people; or from a dinner for over four hundred people to coffee for a small planning committee. Mather Hall has been used continuously, under the direction of Mr. Leonard R . Tomat, from 7 A.M. to ll P . M. daily since September, but, as yet, not all the accomodations have been used simultaneously to capacity. A typical day might best illustrate what transpires in Mather H all. Take Tuesday, February 7th for example: Approximately one thousand meals were served cafeteria style in the new, spacious dining room in addition to food service in the Cave and H amlin Dining Room.


The foy er

"Cap" Horan in his new post office handled approximately eight thousand pieces of mail, and the Trinity College Book Store, open from 9 to 4 daily, rendered for the College community many more services than ever before. Mr. Hargrove estimates that sales are running 33% ahead of what the Book Store did in 1959-60. Of course, the Tripod office was a busy spot. The crew was cleaning up after its first issue for the Trinity semester, and the IvY editorial staff and photographers kept busy on group photos during the day. The Hallden Game Room witnessed a constant parade of Trinity m.en stopping between classes, after lunch or dinner, or "taking a break" from evening studies. It is estimated that approximately seventy-five men played billiards or pool on February 7th, including members of the faculty and administration who have found this re-

The Cave


creation area a convenient spot for relaxation. Another sixty to eighty ping pong players kept the six tables ,well in use and explains why a gross of ping-pong balls does not last more than a couple of months. To'Yard late afternoon the use of Mather Hall takes on a different character. At 4:30 p.m. the Mather Hall Student Board met in the Conference Room for a policy making meeting. This eleven man board assists wi•th the operation of Mather Hall. The members give valuable insight into student reaction and interest in the programming of activities in Trinity's new student center. During the evening the multi-purpose use of Mather Hall comes to light. The Senate room was the scene of a joint meeting of the Political Science Club and the International Relations Club. The Alumni Lounge housed a Psychology Club meeting which featured a guest speaker and a film. The Jesters used the stage to rehearse for the two one-act plays scheduled for later in the month. The rehearsal was no sooner finished than at 9:30 P.M., the Senate's Committee of 100 met to discuss an honor code for Trinity. Le Cercle Francais held forth in Wean Lounge with a talk by Professor Naylor and two French films. The Frenchmen did not seem to mind sharing the room with

an exhibit of twenty original Currier and Ives prints which had .been opened a week before withan informal student-faculty coffee hour. This day's program is representative of what is repeated at least five or six times a week. There are many more possibilities to add to our student center's program, and with further experience and additional equipment Mather Hall will be a center for wholesome leisure time activity. <:

ALBERT C. JACOBS President of Trinity College

THE PRESIDENT'S MESSAGE You graduating seniors, I dare say, face Commencement Day, as it approac,hes, with mixed emotions. On the one hand, you are experiencing keen regret at leaving both the College that has come to mean much to you, and the many good friends that you have found on the campus "Neath the Elms," Nevertheless, you await with eagerness the opportunity to face up to the challenges for which these years have been preparing you. These have been years of substantial growth, both for you and for your College. Trinity's Capital Gift Campaign, the "Program of Progress," which was initia:ted on January l, 1956, came to a very successful conclusion shortly after your class became sophomores, on June 30, 1958. During that same month, on the occasio~ of our 1958 Parents Day, ground was broken for Trinity's student center. This wonderful new facility was dedicated on , Parents Day two years later as William Gwinn Mather Hall, and during this present academic year you have had the opportunity to discover for yourselves what new dimensions Mather Hall has added to the life of the Trinity undergraduate, A number of significant events have occurred on the campus during your years at Trinity. With the aid

of a magnificent gift from the Cesare Barhieri Endowment, the Cesare Barbieri Center for Italian Studies was established at Trinity in 1958. On May 20, 1959, the College was signally honored by the visit of the Rector of the University of Bologna, Dr. Guiseppe Gherardo Forni, who spoke at our Honors Day Ceremony and presented Trinity with an historic and beautifully carved stone from his University. Moreover, I know that you will long remember the remarkable Convocation which was held at TPinity in April of last year and which was participated in by seven of the most distinguished philosophers, historians, and economists from both this country and abroad, During these years, you have, I hope, come to have a deep affection for your College. May your ties with Trinity as an alumnus ever remain strong and intimate. May God bless each and everyone of you, Sincerely,

CLASS HISTORY moned Frosh offenders to solemn trial where an opportunity was given to the "guilty" defendant to present his side of the story. A rare excitement seized the campus as Bob Spahr and Craig Cullen cha.Uenged a Medusa verdict by appealing to the Senate. The Chemistry Auditorium was packed for the famous "Psi U trial." The uninterrupted playing of the "Children's Marching Song" by a local mdio station caused a great dea l of commotion on the e:X:am-ridden Trinity students· that year. Jack Thrower mounted to the chapel carillon board and proceeded to play a rendition of the infamous "march" which .was followed by a parade through the heart of Hartford to the radio station. · It took Dean Lacy to save the skin of the offensive disc jockey. Familiar faces rejoined our ranks, some after imposed vacations, and the Class continued its unity as Jun iors. The footba.U team had an outstanding record with T ony Sanders at the helm. An undefeated season was m issed by one foot as th•e clock ran out against Tufts. The season was climaxed by a decisive victory over W esleyan on Homecoming Weekend. Sharing the limelight with the v.i ctory, however, was the celebrated DKE vice r aid which shook the social foundations of Vernon Street. The incident resulted in the drastic curtailment of Sunday parties, formerly the most colorful event of the Trin man's weekend. .

Asian Flu and the arrival of the ciass of '61 marked the autumn of 1957. The flu survived for four weeks; the Class, because of its unity, survived for four years. Ours was the last class to know that unity of the exclusive Freshman quadrangle. United, we battled the Sophomores, uncovered the intricacies of Hartford night life, stormed Smith, the Cliff, and Conn, and learned that New Dorm was really Jelke Hall. While a character named Bob Stranski, a few weeks ago elected Class Chairman, emerged as leader of the gentleman jocks, Texan Tom Reese led our neophyte footballers to a successful season. A flying Scot, A lex Guild, paced the soccer team to an undefeated season. Alex stayed on to become an All-American and to represent the College on the United States Olympic Team. Our unity was strengthened by well-planned Freshman smokers. The inevitable climax of these affairs was the downing of the last pitcher of beer by the indomitable Ponzie Devendittis as the dass favorite, Dean Clarke, lurked in the background. As Freshmen, we left the academic side of college to the upperclassmen until the first semester grades and the math department b11ought most of us into line. That a•t least one member of the class was concerned about the College's intellectual climate was reflected in Dick Schnadig's letter to the Tripod, "I came East for knowledge and can't find it." Dick stayed around to graduate Phi Beta Kappa with, we hope, a little learning under his belt. The Class united to a man to support its apple picking ugly man, Willy Noonan. Needless to say, "Noons" ran away with the contest. The presence of the blue cadet outfits on Mondays marked ROTC day. At 4 o'clock the quad resounded with the clamor of orders and the disharmony of Dale Peatman's bugle. Howie Bonbright and Ian Rawson led the Saturday morning demerit parade. Spring Weekend that year was celebrated with a delightful Freshman dance in Avon. The class' own singing group, the Chanticleers, excelled under the leadership of Buzz Mayer and Doug Fitzsimmons. The core· of the group stayed on to revitalize the Pipes. Our Class was unified in its participation in the last great "bottle night" of the College's history. In this exam tension-breaking affair, everyone let off a little steam. Unfortunately, the gendarmes took two members for a short ride and the Medusa saw fit to rebuke some of our more zealous members for their conduct. The achievement of "status" was celebrated with the advent of sophomore year; fraternities swelled our egos while rush week beer swelled our bellies. The Class unified in its training of the new upstarts, the Frosh. A future dispenser of justice, Christopher Illick, sum-

The New Frontier was crossed when Chaplain Thomas instituted an Honor System for chapel attendance. Gone were the days in late winter that saw half of the College racing for the chapel, still in the process of dressing. The next year chapel attendance was put on a full honor basis. When the College announced a new curriculum to go into effect the year after our graduation, we wondered how we would have fared with comprehensive exams, weekly papers, and the other little devioes that George Cooper's committee advocated. The Class seemed to be unified in their sighs of relief that the new system would not apply to it. 路 Oxford came to Trinity to debate the worth of the public school system. One of the Atheneum's more polished products, Bill Sullivan, helped the College win the contest. The elections of Senate officers and the Tripod editorial board signalled the Class of 1961's ascension to leadership. But not all was unity in the ranks. Editor Peter Kilborn was determined to make his weekly newspaper not just a notice of campus events, but a controversial organ that would air important issues of the day. On campus the paper prodded the Senate to action; Senate President Roger MacMillan competently answered the charges. The N.S.A. coordinator, Ben Hubby, and the Tripod editor symbolized the new drive for participation in national affairs by picketing with other colleges for the Negro Sit-Ins in the segregated South, while "Barry Goldwater" MacMillan stayed home! The Tripod was further enhanced by "Aisle Say," a critical review column by Bill Kirtz, whose witty reports on shows in the area furnished a guide to the shoe Trin man's entertainment. Somehow the fellow in the white suit managed to raise his average from a 67 as a Sophomore, to a 93 in his Senior year. John Stambaugh' on the other hand was a little more consistent and was the Holland Scholar with the highest grades in the class for four years. Paul Briger and Steve Crock-ett brought imagination and literary talent to the REVIEW augmented with an evening of beat poetry in t:he Washington Room which was well attended, if not compl'ehended. The IvY was deftly managed by Harrison "Bernard Goldfine" Bridge, who completed the Psi Upsilon domination of Trinity's publications. The deficit of three hund!'ed dollars in the IvY treasury coincided with the arrival of "Stable Happy" Harry's new Chrysler "300." All was not unity, however, at Delta Phi, as the fraternity was split down the middle over a national restrictive clause on membership. Tom Watt led the liberals who formed a local, Q.E.D., while John Rorke's group remained in the Vernon Street fortres3. The pres路i dential campaign filled the air when we returned as Seniors. The Tripod backed Kennedy, but the conservative student body favored Nixon. James

Tansill receives McCook Trophy.

Michener, noted author, spoke for Kennedy. Under the auspices of the lecture committee, Socialist Norman Thomas filled the Chemistry Auditorium during this period. Our football team climaxed a fine season by tying Wesleytan, and the society band of Lester Lanin at the Sophomore Hop climaxed the fall social season. The drive for graduate school, the anticipation of business interviews, and just the chance to have a good semester finally drove the Class to do its finest work in the Christmas term. Reports of aptitude scores, acceptances to gradua-te school and job offers dominated most conversations in the Cave. The proposed Honor Code was debated in the Committee of 100, the Senate, and then formally in the Chemistry Auditorium. In what appeared to be an even debate between Schnadig and MacMillan for the affirmative, and Sullivan and Ramsey for the negative, the audience was shocked by the sudden conversion of the negative team. Despite the fine show of unity among the Seniors, the Honor Code was defeated by the undercbssmen. Spring vacation saw the Seniors taking one last breath before plunging forward to graduation. While the economics majors sweated on their theses and the more serious members took job interviews, many played in the South. Nassau, Bermuda, and Puerto Rico hosted the visiting Trin men. Only a few chose Fort Lauderdale. Though most came back in time for the resumption of classes, the St. Anthony contingent of Dove, Layne, and Hudson lapped up the sun in Palm Beach for an extra two weeks. As the last months passed we danced to the music of Maynard Ferguson and the songs of Chris Conner at the Senior Ball, finished term papers, resigned ourselves to the realities of the Alumni Fund, saw the class's English majors petition unsuccessfully for oral exams, polished plans for the summer and years ahead, began our last-minute cramming for exams . . . and finally, donned the black robes for the solemnities-Latin and otherwis'e -of the Commencement weekend.

THE YEAR IN REVIEW a

It was year of innovation, it was a year of setbacks it was a year of hope, it was a year of des路pair; it was a year of growth, it was a year of atrophy. 'In short, ~he College's 138th session of pearl-casting, 1960196 t, was an active, though basically . typical year. The economically-styled Mather Hall, drawing wrath from fine arts students and raves from pool players and prospective bowlers, admirably justified the "center for student activities" tag given it by Director Tomat. Dedicated on Parents' Day, October 22, the new building housed, in .addition to the usual round of concerts and meetings, special events ranging from art exhibits to judo demonstrations. Both the ceiling and Mr. Tomat held out. The Hall's lounging facilities were quickly tested by the crowds drawn nightly to its television set to glean vit~l insight into election issues and "The Untouchables." The Tripod came out for Kennedy, the Hartford and New York Times quickly followed. Unswayed, students demonstrated their two-to-one ratio of Republican support when then-Vice President Nixon visited chapel on October 16th. The crowd around Trinity's gothic edifice reminded veteran observers of those frantic, since past, days just before chapel credits were to be .t urned in. Chaplain Thomas looked wistful ... Though Jack-backer James Michener, who spoke to Democratic forces here on October 27, proved prophetic, to the dismay of the student body, Norman Thomas' stat'ements in the Chemistry Auditorium three days earlier ~ere more accurate: the voters would choose between two quite similar ideologies. No parallel beliefs, however, seemed involved in Trinity's major political hassle, as Delta Phi fraternity

suffered a schism over a so-called discriminatory membership clause. The success of the insurgent group perhaps prompted the Independents' fervent bid for more representation in the Senate. A sophomore-sparked grid team featured hard running to offset a porous defense. A 22-22 tie, the first in sixty tussels with the Cardinals at Wes}eyan, highlighted the season. Some 450 attended the College's three-session symposium on Christian Existentialism, and our religion professors Cherbonnier and Johnson were among the five speakers. We returned from Thanksgiving to find, lo and be hold, the 1960 IVY. Gratified, we read it avidly, despite Tripod derision. Students stayed glued to the Trinity Spotlight during the winter months interrupting this paean to small college existence to defend Dr. Weaver's lassiez-faire attitude toward the largest snowfall in recent history. The Jesters' back-patting cries of avant-garde failed to lure enough of a Trinity audience to call its winter production a success, but the less introspective and less challenging spring attempt proved a big draw. 路 Motorcycle rallies along Vernon Street punctuated second semester attacks of the Senate, the Sophomore Dining Club, and the 1960 IvY. Cries of witch-hunting from certain pressure groups failed to halt the Senate's investigation of itself and the two other activities. Winter sports produced only indifferent support, with Mills' and Illick's success in squash tournaments providing the only exceptional achievemems. The College held another symposium on March 18, focusing attention on science, as three distinguished doctors discussed the problems of activating man's curiosity. Just before spring vacation, the much-revised honor system was, as expected, defeated in a referendum vote. Wiser heads applauded President Jacobs' decision not to try to legislate morality by forcing the code on the stu-

The "hard sell" tactics adopted by the Senate and the Tripod in order to pass the measure might have failed, but they pr-obably provided the sparks which ignited the campus into a hotbed of intellectual ferment later in the t•erm. Although rather quiescent during "Operation Abolition," a House Committee on Un-American Activities film which showed California students 'duped" by the Communists, our patriotic spirit manifested itself four days later, when Trinity picketers demonstrated downtown against Fidel Cas.tro's May Day gayeties. We made the radio and local papers later when a handful continued placard swipes at the pink premier in fron t of the State Capitol.

down on Trinity scofflaws. Used to treating local park· ing tickets like confetti, out-of-staters were suddenly confronted with quadrupled fines which in some cases exceeded the value of the vehicle which had perpetrated them. But the College's Bill Fallon-alumnus Jim Egan -again rose to the fore, hammering through a reduction of the original fine for the now-circumspect parkers. Some ticket payers were heard to mutter that they would not have minded augmenting debt-ridden Hartford Traffic Court if the money were going to a scholarship fund, as do Trinity parking fine revenues. Mayor DeLucca is believed to have no comment on this situation. A baseball team which improved steadily as the season went along highlighted spring sports, but the surprising success of Captain Mark Smith's track squad in the New Englands was not unnoticed.

less frequently than in the past, or perhaps this impression was due only to the secrecy in which that organiza tion's activities were cloaked. Bottle Night, that time-hallowed Trinity custom, was no more, and connoisseurs of crime could console themselves only by recalling l•ast year's achievements. As the year ends, the North Campus project is but a gaping hole left by the striking workers, so the effect on the fraternities will be postponed for another year. W e are ready to go home, tired by both the Senior Ball-provided Maynard Ferguson band (less smooth, but more typical of campus mores, than the Sophomores' Lester Lanin deb party) -and exams of the New Curriculum (after which President Kennedy named his Fron tier) variety. Unlike their Harvard counterparts, who have dismayed fledgling classicists by the innovation of English di plomas,' Trinity's Board of Trustrees have preserved the L atinate sheepskin. We are proud of them and accepted our diplomas with honor.

Q .E. D., the new fraternity on campus, was founded in September, 1960 by thirtJeen morally bound students. These students had seen fit to disassociate themselves from a nationa l fraternity at Trinity on both philosoph ical and civil rights grounds. Recognizing that in order for a philosophy to succeed, it must be at least as reffective as the system it is attempting to av-oid, Q. E. D. strove toward making its ideals practicable. The preamble to its constitution states that men of like interest and in~ent may unite without destroying or imperiling individuality. No discrimination is m ade because of race, religion, or creed. The members are dedicated to the principle of enhancing the opportunities and capabilities of each other within the academic community. Struggling without the advantages of contiguous housing or any physical facilities this year, Q.E. D. hopes to find itself on Vernon Street in 1961 where it shall have ample opportunity to better its unity and be a worthy member of the campus community. Its record this year in rushing, in winning scholastic honors for the Christmas Term, in intramural spoi1ts, and in the college social life represents a promising beginning. After being led by Thomas J. Watt during the first semester, Q.E.D. chose Paul J. Devendittis as its new president. Other officers include Charles Kimball, Vice President; F. Peter Williams, Secretary; William G. Chase, Treasurer; and Walker Grant, Duke.

Senate The Senate, the student governing body at Trinity, had quite an eventful year. At their first meeting the Senators elected Roger MacMillan, President; Robert Honish, Vice President; Frank Hubby, Corresponding Secretary; and C. Baird Morgan, Jr. , Recording Secretary. During the course of the Senat<e's administration, the Executive Council was criticized by certain liberal factions on the campus for its conservative interpretation o.f the role and function of student government. The Senate did not take any stands on such national issues as the Southern Sit-in Movement, the National Disclaimer Affidavit, or the abolition of the Un-American Affairs Committee, for such national matters were deemed outside the sphere of student government. The membership of the S<e nate consists of representatives from every social organization, and the junior, sophomore, and freshman classes. This year the membership was increased with the addition of three senior Independent representatives. This significant addition has been long overdue. The Senate's functions include allocating money to the numerous campus organizations, supervising all class elections .and acting as mediator between the administration and the student body. As well as serving as a

body where discontented students may present their views the Sen a te delegates its disciplinary authority to the Medusa. T he 1960-1961 Senate accomplish ed a great deal in terms of its original prospectus. It resolved the relationship with the National Student Association-the question being whether Trinity want'ed to r emain a member of this dynamic and somewhat reactionary organization. Despite the strenuous objections of some senators, it was decided that Trinity should retain its membership. Several years ago the integrated dormitory system was instituted by the administration. This year the Senate scrutin ized the system due to the complaints of many students. After the results of its questionnaire were interpreted, the Senate recommended that the integrated system to be continued. Perhaps the most significant accomplish ment this year was the initiation of a vast representative organization to consider the possible implimentation of an Honor System at Trinity. The Committee of 100 wrote and passed by a substantial majority an Academic Honor Code. The Code was then submitted to the students for their vote of confidence. A "clear and definit e m andate" was not established and the Code was not instituted. It is important to note, however, that no member of the faculty or administration served on this committee in any capacity; every piece of work was done by the students. The 1960-1961 Senate served Trinity in a commendable manner. It chose to be a generally conservative body and to work within that interpreta tion of student government. 1

Medusa

The Medusa is the Senior honorary society committed to upholding- the traditions, restrictions, and general g-oocl name of Trinity College. Its members are chosen in the spring- of each year from the rising- Senior class; their selection is made public at the traditionally impressive "tapping- ceremony" before Bishop Brownell's statue. The six or seven men "tapped" take over the duty of enforcing discipline for the coming year at that time. Members of the society have been traditionally known by their classmates as being- men of hig-h character, leaders in their class, and, as having contributed positively to the colleg-e community. As a result, to be chosen to the "stoney-eyed" seven, is one of the highest honors that a Trinity College student may be g-ranted during- his underg-raduate years.

Review

Seat ed: Briger, l'. H.; Crockett, S. Rcnza, L.

The Review, which attempted to come out three times this year, is Trinity 's outpost for creative diversion. Its efforts are concentrated mainly on keeping budding authors and poets from going underground during the long and dusty winter of collegiate academicia. It carries on the "good fight" through two major means: publishing a gradually thickening "litmag" and holding weekly discussions wherever convenient to talk over matters of an "artsy-craftsy" nature. A con.commitant method to reach an audience and contributors is through a twice-monthly radio show which seeks to disturb the complaisance of FM listeners. One of the highlights of the year was the Review sponsored session of modern poetry and folksinging. Besides raising eyebrows, the refugee group from McDougal Street, proved to the predominantly college a udience that poetry has been written after Wordsworth, and, that perhaps, some may even be found in the pages of the Trinity Review.

Tripod Making its debut Freshman Week in a larger size, the Tripod has this year climbed to unparalleled heights of influence, quality, and readership (circulation has jumped from 1800 to 2600). The paper quickly assumed the role of prime initiator of campus ideas, sparked by a hard-hitting, wellreasoned, editorial policy. The Tripod fought, for ex ample, for a mid-semester reading period and a revamped Senate, backed the Independent's bid for more representation and, disregarding campus ire, approved Mr. Kennedy's quest. The Tripod set a precedent in endorsing a candidate for the Senate presidency. It also was one of the Campus' most outspoken exponents of the Honor System. Responsible for the Tripod's vast improvement was Editor-in-Chief Peter Kilborn. Hardly deserting his brand new office, even in slack times, the Chief's freshman-chilling cries of "What's more important, the Tripod or you r studies?" proved that his COURANT learned tactics could work wonders in college journalism. Fearing neither the Public Relations Office nor the Young Republicans, Kilborn led his staff in vigorous coverage of such 'hard" news items as teachers' salaries, the role of the Dean, and the Pea.ce Corps' mison d'etre. Often-rabid, but never dull copy was disgorged weekly by Managing Editor Bill Kirtz, known affection-

a tely as the paper's hatchet man. Theater-goer Kirtz slashed his way through a third year of "Aisle Say"; his economy week-end suggestions and IVY-baitings were greeted, as usual, with both chuckles and snarls. Drawing on H artford Tim es experience, Kirtz also provided colorful, if slightly libelous, headlines. Foreign and domestic affairs expert, Features Edior J ohn Henry, made front-page news as he was pictured grilling Vice Presidential-hopeful Lodge, as the la tter made his pilgrimage to Hartford. Also on hand to direct the Tripod's exclusive photo and prose cover age of campaigner Nixon's surprise visit to a chapel service, Henry's impeccably-typed "Election Year" disclosures were never tedious, always, TIMEly. Sometimes deserting his Sports Editor's post for the sphere of national politics or Vernon Street outrages, George Will was inf-luential in adding scope and variety to the editorial p age. Trained on Illinois' crack Champaign Urbania Courier, Will turned a lucid, 路 if severe, eye on topics ranging from the slumping baske tball team to the problem of honesty and the Honor System. Groomed for greatness by the Chief himself, George seems cast in the same mold of the WeschlerKilborn tradition. N ews Editor Peter Kemble was responsible both for the 路T ripod's varied and eye-catching make-up and the special editions of the paper produced from time to ti me. Assistant Editor John Stamba ugh, a jack-of alltrades provided excellent articles on a variety of subjects . A Junior Phi Beta Kappa, Stambaugh lent an aura of academic prestige to the largely self-educated "Pod" staff. T he efforts of these six, and those of the hardworking and capable staff which they led, would have gone for naught if not for the ability of David Wadhams, the Business Manager. All in all, it was a fine year-responsibility was combined with new ideas. vigor was joined with tact, and infl uen ce was recognized with a minimum of humility.

Ivy Carrying on operations from their new office in the Student Center, the IvY editors began their seemingly endless task of capturing the significant events of Trinity's l38th year. This has not been an easy job, as 1961 has been a year filled with many new frontiers for the college. The editors have 路aimed to present this progress in a "pictures and print" review of those occurrences that have made 1961 different from any other year. At the same time we have attempted to keep alive those traditions that make Trinity a unique institution. Many people mistakenly believe that each yearbook is the same. Possibly the basic framework is similar, but the minutae that go to make it up are never completely the same. The thought and ideas that lie behind each creation can never be the same, as the people that conceive them are never the same as the year before. We have incorporated several new ideas in the layout, organization, and copy of this 1961 IvY. Obviously, the make-up of the faculty section is the most revolutionary of th ese changes. A1though there is some .satisfaction in being able to see each department at a glance, the previous layout has been disorganized and unsymmetrical. By arranging the faculty and administration in alphabetical order we have eliminated both of these problems. In so doing it is now possible to include not only their title, but also their academic degrees. As in the Senior Section, we have broken up the monotony of page after page of photographs by including art work. Our artists, Dick Tuttle and Bob Murdock, have tried to create eye-catching sketches to bring back a memory of your college days as you thu:nb

through these pages. In designing the oover, Don Mac:l<Jay has attempted to embody Trinity's conservative air wi th her traditional seal and motto. In his creation he has offset this classic emblem with the TC which adds a lightening effect to the rather somber design. By keeping the blue and gold colors we have furthe r embodied memories and your own personal reflections of your years here at Trinity. Barring some unforeseen catastrophe, we are rather proud of what is encompassed within these pages. Many long, hard, and seemingly unrewarding hours have been put into this production and a great deal is owed to those who have helped make it a success. With some exceptions, the Board has worked tirelessly in pu tting together these pages. Special recognition should go to Fred DoLe, our pho tographer, who has done superior work in providing the photographs for this IvY. Baird Morgan, doubling as Managing Editor and Sports Ed>itor, has pieced together a Sports Section that does justice to both Trinity and her teams. Senior Editor John Denson, trying to center more interest in the Senior Section, has mastered the problem by reintroducing the memory sketches that add a uniqueness and freshness to each page. Successfully juggling the Business Manager and Advertising Manager positions after t:he hasty departure of one of the Board, Rod Day schemed up new areas from which to obta,i n oapital for our somewhat tight budget. Paul Briger rounded out the Board as Activites Editor. In conclusion all we can say is that we hope that you will derive a great deal of pLeasure from this edition and that over the years you will leaf through these pages as ohen as we hope you will.

WRTC-FM 1960-61 was an outstanding year of rapid growth and progress for Trinity's radio station. Working under Station Manager Terry Mixter's "never-say-die" atllitude, the staff was expanded to include about eighty members of the College, with many other students partioipating in special productions. During the year, the programing was expanded to include Sunday broadcas•ting, and many new items were added to provide a more varied and interesting selection of programs. For the first time in the station's history, the Educational Radio Network carried a program from Radio Trinity, which receiv:ed wide response. WR TC-FM also produced a series of lectures by John Dando, faculty advisor to the station, for the Voice of Amerioa. WR TC-FM's Production Department, under the tutelage of .John Romig, proved i•tself unique among FM stations by continuing wi.t h another year of Classrooms Unlimited, broadcasts to Hartford's high schools, the first step in educational broadcasting in the state of Connecticut. In the past year producers arranged lectures by James Michener, Walter Kaufman, Dr. Florovsky, Eugene Ormandy, ]. ]. Johnson, ·and other nationally distinguished men.

election were some of the top-level broadcasts presented over WRTC-FM. The Production Department also arranged a live broadcast on art criticism from the Wadsworth Atheneum Museum in downtown Hartford, setting a new standard for local FM stations in the coverage of the "area's" cultural events. An increase in program guide subscriptions and outside response indicated that more people, both off-campus and student listeners, were tuning in Trinity College Radio. Plans were made for an eventual move into the Fine Arts Center, and arrangements were made to increase the broadcast power of the station to a substantial 380 watts. WR TC-FM, during the year, has emerged as a valuable asset to the College and community.

Jesters Capacity audiences continued to support Jesters' productions this year while the organization battled for its life with the local fire department. Twice within a twelve month period they were hustled out of their "do -it-yourself" theatre in Alumni Hall and were forced to fend for themselves. Nevertheless, the Jesters stubbornly expanded their program to three m ajor productions which were praised by both the College and the communi路ty. The season opened colorfully with a production of Shakespeare's rarely performed Love's Lavon L ost. The completion of Mather Hall afforded production space in the Washington Room where, in February, the off-beat note was struck when the Jesters gave Hartford its firs't opportunity to see Samuel Beckett's Endgame and E ugene Ionesco's The Chain. The season was rounded off in a light vein with a production of the rollicking Mr. Roberts. The Second Annual One-Act Play Competition, sponsored by the Jesters, was won by Peter Fish's en try The Gift. For the second time the Jesters were invited to represent Trinity at the Yale CoHegiate Drama Festival.

The administrative end of the Jesters strove to revamp itself this year by revising the constitution and establishing a governing Executive Board. With their eyes set on the proposed Fine Arts Center, the Jesters did the best they could, under th eir limited conditions, to further the dramatic arts of the College. First-rate work and able directing continued to keep the n ame of the Jesters in high regard in Greater Hartford.

Mather Hall Board of Governors

With Junior William Richardson as its chairman, the Board attacked and ultimately solved the acutely sensitive question of who 路 should be included in the membership and how the group should perpetuate itself. Assigned to christen Mather Hall's unnamed rooms, the group named a colorful dining area, , partially surrounded by glass, the Cave. The Board also assisted Director Tomat in selecting movies, (On the Waterfront and Born Yesterday among others), planning exhibits, such as the Cunier and Ives prints, conducting teas and other social functions, and determining methods of using the Center more effectively.

Nothing-not a tradition, a cause, an idea, not even a building-survives at Trinity without a committee to promote it. At least this was the feeling of the College officials when they conceived what has been variously labeled the Student Center Board, the Student Center Student Board, the Mather Hall Advisory Board, and, most recently, the Mather Hall Board of Governors. The College's newest structure prospered, but some doubt whether credit for nursing it through its first year belongs solely to the Senate-appointed st-a r chambers of student leaders. (In fact, a few suspect that the bu路i lding's director, Leonard Tomat, may have had something to do with it.)

Glee Club fered a Christmas "Sing" and party on WHNB-TV on the Trin ity Spotlight Series. The Spring Season opened grandly with the presentation of the Beethoven Mass in C in conjunction with the Boston Oratorio Quartet. Besides being broadcasted by WR TC-TV, the program was taped and recorded to be released as a record in May. The Glee Club's annual Spring Tour was the longest and most successfu l undertaking in its history. Travelling down the East Coast, the organization presented sacred concerts in Pla•infield, N. ]., Chevy Chase, Md., Rocky Moun t, N.C., Charleston, S.C., St. Augustine, Ft. Pierce and Coconut Grove, Florida. The tour brought the Gl•ee Club into contact with about 2500 people and was the perfect climax to a nearly perfect season.

The Tri nity College Glee Club, one of New England's oldest college singing groups, first appeared in 1872. The Club has since compiled an impressive concert record throughout the East. Building on the tradition of past years, the Glee Club has presented one of the b usiest and most successful seasons thus far. The schedule commenced with the annual Parent's Day "Song Fest" in October. Next, it combined forces with the Pembroke College Glee Club in presenting selections from Faure's Requiem. In November, the club traveled to the New York area, where it gave a concert of secular music in Rockville Center, and sang the Service of Holy Communion at the St. Thomas Chapel and Vesper Service at the Church of The Heavenly Rest.

Founded in 1938 by four fraternity brothers, the Pipes gradually enlarged during the 1940's, adding representatives from several fraternities to their ranks. Having records in 1947, 1950, 1954, and 1957, the Pipes are presently under contract with Carlton Records, Inc., and have a twelve-inch monaural and stereo recording which has been distributed nationally. The 1960-61 season has been especially successful for the Pipes. On November 12 they made Mather Hall the scene of the Button Down Sounds, an intercollegiate songfest that featured nine top Eastern Octets. Through the huge success o.f this show and the generosity of a Pipe's admirer, a Trinity Pipe Loan Fund was set up with the college. Traveling from Massachusetts to Maryland, singing at Democratic as well as Republican rallies, the Pipes have developed a reputation for their fine variety, style, and ability throughout the East. This year's group is composed of seniors Phil Carter, Bruce Coleman, Doug Fitzsimmons, "Buzz" Mayer, and Gene Refalvy. Sophomores Ted Steir and Sam Winner, along with Freshmen Ralph Alleu and Charlie Francis round out the Pipe "Sound" while senior Jack Perry handles the business end.

Band In add~tion to formal band actlvrtles, member~ participated in the New England Intercollegiate Band and provided the instrumental accompaniment for the Glee Club's Beethoven Mass concert. This year's officers, John Stambaugh, Alan Redford, James Maryak, and Wilfred Files, began the year by coping with the extra problems which arose when the band found itself moved unexpectedly to new and roomier quarters on the second floor of Mather Hall.

This year's edition of the college band carried on its traditional role as a marching and a concert organization. Under Drum Major Bob Harned's baton, the band appeared at the six sunshine-blessed football games and at all of the pep rallies in the fall. The rev,ived Spring Concert, held in May, under the direction of Conductor Willard P. Green, featured a series of Broadway show tunes, works by Wagner and Verdi, and marches. Another concert was held for patients of the Newington Home.

Pipes and Drums Outfitted in authentic regimental attire, the band pipes, drums and drills in the traditional Highland style. Special permission was given to the band in 1956, by the Duke of Montrose, to wear the Graham of Montrose tartan. Included in the repertoire are stirring regimental marches, spirited battle marches, clan tunes, ceremonial slow marches, and retreats. In addition to the invigorating skiding and drumming, the Trinity Pipes and Drums also offers the graceful Highland dances. This year's Presidential election afforded many opportunities for the band to be in the public eye. At the Hartford airport, l 0,000 people watched one of the candidates disembark to the music of the Pipes and Drums. Two clays later the band led this same canclidia te's motorcade through downtown Hartford. At the start of Spring Vacation, the Pipes and Drums ventured a vagabond tour from Hartford to Washington, D. C., playing for meals along the way. This year's tour was the first of its kind ever taken by the band; but similar journeys are being planned in the future. The interest and enthusiasm shown for genuine Scottish dress and music is indeed a great inspiration to the Pipes and Drums. Left to Right: Canaday, M. C.; Bailey, J. K. ; Pratt, H . D.; Matt, A.

Sophomore Dining Club Founded in 1897, the Sophomore Dining Club is one of Trinity's oldest honor societies. Originally created as an eating club to honor those sophomores who had proved themselves outstanding members of thei: class, the club has, this year, come under Senate scrutmy because of not having lived up to its .purpose. Althot~gh its election policies have been questwned, the o:gamzation, this year, has been able to take a more active part in assuming its responsibility as official host of the College. . The primary duty of its members is to serve as guides throughout the year to prospective Trinity students and other vis.itors to the College. They have also served as ushers at the Science and Existential Symposiums, and each Fall and Spring have proved themselves helpful in the campus blood drive.

The Trinity Folksingers is a new organization on campus, aimed at promoting interest in and appre~iation of folk music at Trinity. Its gatherings are public and often occur spontaneously when two or three boys sit down to play and sing. . . Among its activities, the Fol~s1ngers pr~sented, m ~he Fall, Miss Joan Baez, a young gurl of Mexican and Insh extraction, who has ropidly attained the position of one of the most sought-after folksingers in the country. The College repeated its response and enthusiasm in its a~颅 ceptance of the spring concert and hootenanny, as 1t showed for Miss Baez. As well as having presented singers on campus, several of the organization's members have attended various festivals and gatherings throughout New England, learning as well as en joying the numerous styles and techniques of other folbingers.

Psi Chi Psi Chi is the n a tional honorary society in Psychology. It was founded in 1929 at the meeting of th e Ninth International Congress of Psychology. Psi Chi serves two major goals: the first is to provide academic prestige to its initiates by the fact of membership; the second is to offer a climate congenial to the creative development of an individual's ability. The Trinity chapter, known as Connecticut Alpha, wla.S chartered and installed in 1959. The purpose of the organization is primarily to advance the science of psychology; and secondly, to encourage, s:timulate, and maintain the scholarship of the individual members in all academic fields, particularly in psychology. Psi Chi works closely with the Psychology Club to promote activities pertinent to the field of psychology. One of the major projects of Psi Chi at Trin ity is the development of a library. Membership in Psi Chi 路is restricted to advanced undergraduate students who have shown outstanding scholarship in psychology as well as in other departments of the college.

Delta Phi Alpha Delta Phi Alpha, the National Honorary German Fraterni.ty, was founded in 1929. The Delta Upsilon Chapter, located at Trinity, was chartered in March, 1958. As an honorary scholastic society, Delta Phi Alpha seeks to recognize excellence in the study of German, and to provide an incentive for higher scholarship. The 路chid aim of the honor fraternity is to promote the study of the German language, literature, and civilization, and endeavors to emphasize those aspects of German culture which are of universal value. Each year the chapter awards a book prize to the student who has shown the greatest facihty in German studies. Students qualifying for membership in Delta Phi Alpha must distinguish themselves both in the study of German and in other courses, and must show continuing intereSJt in the German language, culture, and thought. During the year, meetings are held featuring leotures, discussions, and readings.

Freshman Executive Council

Atheneum Society The twenty-one individuals of the Atheneum Society in thi-s 136th year of aotivity were probably the hardest working men in the Society's history. An organization with a purpose as :a mbitious as "to promote intellectual inquiry and forensic activity in general and, in particular, to exercise supervision over debating at Trinity" will always be busy, but this year was more hectic than usual. Intercollegiate debaoing tournaments were the hackbone of the schedule. The Atheneum competed in nine tournaments in six states, traveLing as far as Ohio. The highlight of the season wa s a victory in the extemporaneous speaking division of the New England Forensic Conference Tournament. Closer to home, the Society continued its practice of speaking before schools and service clubs on a variety of topics. The Atheneum also aired the controversial issues of the presidential election and the honor code before the College audience and held high school and intercollegiate tournaments on campus. A special international debate with Victoria University of Wellington, New Zealand, rounded out the season. Throughout the year penetrating discussions on current events provided members with the interest and understanding that only the rigors of debate can give. A program of debates on the Oxford style was also inaugurated for slightly less serious issues such as, Resolved: That a beard is essential to beatnik life. Next year's schedule reveals more of the same hectic activity, with its challenging problems and stimulating forensic baHles to which the members of the Atheneum are accustomed.

The Freshman Executive Council, cons1stmg of twenty-two freshmen, has effectively fulfilled its dual purpose: to organize frequenL social functions for the Freshman Class . and to act as a liaison between the administration and the Class of 1964. In carrying out its duty, the council has provided "bevies of beautiful babes" from nearby colleges and secondary schools for freshmen mixers. Due to the determination of the Council, the quantity and quahty of the Mather Hall food has steadily increased. Members of the group have also served on the Committee of l 00, whose primary fun otion was to discuss the adoption of a proposed Honor System. Perhaps the greatest achievement of this year's Council was the draflting of a cons{itution for future Freshman Executive Councils. Contained within this document are seven articles which stipulate the F. E. C. as the coordinat ing body of the Freshman Class.

The Junior Advisors assist the Dean in aiding Trinity 's freshmen adjust to college life. They are an invaluable group, as freshmen would testify, in helping the young Bantams with problems as widely diversified as the quantum levels of the Bohr atom to meeting an honesltto-gooclness Bennett girl majoring in cartography. These men are carefully chosen by the Dean on the basis of outstanding academic ability, participation in campus activities, and general good nature. The plan, conceived six years ago, has more than proved itself successful in providing guidance and patience in aiding the freshmen overcome the obstacles of their roughest year.

Independents Those upperclassmen who ar.e not members of a fraternity or social organization are called Independents. Although this group has neither formal organization nor officers, it represents a sizeable proportion of the upperclassmen enrollment. During the past year, the Independent Steering Committee (a nucleus of interested students) was created to work toward increasing Senior Independent representation in the Senate. This project, ably assisted by Senator Roy Price, was carried to a success ful conclusion, and in Februrary the Independents elected three new Sena-tors and one Senator-at-large for the coming year. In addition, the Committee has spon路 sored a student-faculty coffee hour as well as occasional Independent dinners.

The board cons1sts of representatives from the fraternities, Brownell Club, the Independents, and each dormitory, all being ably assis1ted by the Intramural Direotor, Mr. Karl Kul'th. The program encourages and aids the various teams in partioipatiorn in eleven varied sports, and is responsible for awarding the Intramural Trophy to the team compiling the most points in contests throughout the year. This year's Intramural Boand invtiMed the faculty into the basketball compet·ition, enabling students to meet their professors on a more common and equitable basis. This is just one of the maJny functions the Board sponsors in an effor.t to further the goals of the Intramural program.

With the controlling hand of Commodore Harrison Pond Bridge, whose ingenious financial wizardry. turr~ed the Yacht Club 's deficit into surplus, the Cormthian Yacht Club's 1960-61 season was one of calm seas and favorable winds. Belonging to the New England Intercollegiate Sa.iling Association, the Club was a?Ie to _compete with a large number of Ea:stern_ ~ol!eges ~~ regi?路~al . regattas. In addition, the Club participated With sadmg crews from the Middl e Atlant ic States and seyeral Canadian universities as well. The club was in a particularly auspicious position this past year as a result of the fact that Mr. Bridge served as Commodore of the N. E. I. S. A. The season, extremely ac tive this year, began bef_?~re Trinity officially opened when the sailors participated in the Pine Trophy r.aces. Trinity was picked as one of the four New England schools along with M. I. T., Coast Guard, and Boston University to compete against a crew from the Middle Atlantic States Sailing Association. In spite of the fact that the N. E. I. S. A. lost the event, Mr. Bridge was said to have been "satisfied" with Trinity's showing. The Club also was represent.e d at the Connecticut Valley Dinghy Championships held at Brown University as well as at the twenty-first New England Dinghy Races this Spring. Although Commodore Bridge will not be returning next year, it is hoped that the Club will have an equally successful year in sp ite of this obvious loss.

Under adroit and de~ermm_ed leadership, the Club began p lanning some of :as active schedule early in the year.

Also concerned wlth CISL was the expert assistance given by the Governi?en~ Department in preparing Trinity's two bills~ flondatwn of water, and a limited driving bill for those under seventeen years of age-both of which were unfortunately defeated. The second major event of the Pohtical Science Club, was the annual University Model United Nations held in Montreal, Canada, between the semesters.

In paStt years the Democratic Party members and boosters on campus were few in number, but faithful and closely knit. This last year saw more students awa-kening politically and trebling rhe ranks of the Democrats a.t Trini-ty. Under the leadership of Andrew Cantor '61 and George Will '62 the Students for Kennedy Club was formed early in the fall term·. Many members worked for SenMor Kennedy at his local headquarters while others spread the gospel on campus. Local candidates for Mayor, Congress, and Alderman faithfully counted on and used the organization members. The hi·g hlight of the autumn activity before the elections was a speech by author James Michener at the Chemistry Auditorium. ~r. Michener's speech, in favor of Senator Kennedy, and his presence on campus, was well received. Two days before elections a whistle stop speech by Kennedy at the Hartford Times building was m'lrle extremely successful by our congenial group of rabble rousers.

. The Trinity. College Young Republican Club began this past year WI•th a complete reorganiza.tion and membership drive. The drive provided the support of four hundred students for the work to be done in Vice President. Nixon's Presidenltial Campaign, and in the ConnectKu:t Congressional campaigns. In the election campaigns, the Young Republicans perf~rmed man~ o~ the necessary tasks for various Republican orgamzatwns. In the Presitlenti•a l race the Cl~b campaigned door to door, did office work, and suppl~ed labor to make the necessary preparations for the Nixon and Lodge visits to Hartford. During Nixon's w~ekend ~isit, Trinity College was honored to have the VIce President attend Sunday morning chapel services ~nd t!alk wit? the students afterwards. In the congresSIOnal. campaigns, the Young Republicans performed the sa?l·e Importan~ tasks. Many of the students campaigned With the ~andidates themselves.

Le Cercle Francais had its most successful year since its founding in 1952. Under the presidencies of Sauveur Intagliata and Ross Hall, the organization played an active and dynamic role in promoting French at Trinity. Its meetings, conduoted entirely in French, featured films and guest speakers. This year, Le Cercle Francais had twenty-five men on its membership rolls. The highlight of the Club's year was the presentation of the award-winning French thri'ller Diabolique in the Chemistry Auditorium.

It has been rumored that this particular vehicle may be of American manufacture, although President Fitzpatrick has refused to comment on its validity. With good luck and easy expense accounts, the group may still be in existense next year to provide a meeting place for those students interested in the aspects of racing or sports car driving.

Physics Club The Physics Club is a new organization which is open to all students who have successfully passed one semester of physics and who wish to participate in the activities normally restricted to members of Sigma Pi Sigma, the hon orary Physics organization. As a &tudent section of the American Insti-tute of Physics, the Club derives the benefits of being a member of a respected national assooiation. A free subscfliption to the AlP's monthly magazine is extended to all members of the Physics Club. During the past year, the Club has sponsored several activities including a full-day trip to Brookhaven National Laboratories, where a guided tour was presented. The Club heard lecturers from Princeton and Carnegie Tech. concerning the nature of the present clay physical research.

Campus Chest

The William Savitt award fo-r the organization having the best per cap~ta giving, mos1t volunteer workers, and "ugly man" votes was won by Delta Kappa Epsilon, followed hy Psi Upsilon and St. Anthony Hall.

After last year's history-making amount of $6500 this year's Chest fell off quite a bi1t, garnering only $4100. The main reason for the decline was credi·ted to the changing of the finale from late November to early February. Thi·s change was made early during . the year because the feeling of the committ-ee was that the campus seemed to be more benevolent after Christmas than before. Under Cha-i rman Ian Bennett '62, several major changes were made; firs·t, more students were represented on the governing committee; secondly, the faculty was asked to participate more in helping the students; and finally, a charity of special interest that the College col!ld identify i:tself with and help, was chosen to receive the major percentage of the funds. The charity selected was the Albert Schweitzer Hospital in Haiti. With the aid of Chaplain Thomas, Mr. Pappas, and many other facul•ty members, haircuts and other services were sold to help the Ohest. Increasing the Executive Committee to include all campus groups gave a wider range of giving than had been jn evidence in the past. Finale night was the usual holocaust. The scheduled events ran the gamut from a cake sale to an exotic dancer. The winning "ugly man," in the guise of Ralph Allen '64, again proved the Freshman class to be the ugliest. Saint Anthony Hall followed closely, with Phi Kappa Psi third, even though their ugly man had been kidnapped. The overflow crowd in the Washington Room hysterically received all the entertainment, while Trinity's versatile toastmaster Bob Woodward tried to abate its animal instincts. Singer Lori Lynn proved herself able as a vocalist and fund raiser, selling kisses for up to $100.

Its work covers many rdigious activities at Trinity, as well as extending Christian service to the Hartford communi,ty. The Vestry also sponsors two big events on campus each year: eithe-r a conference or a supper followed by a talk given by an outstanding churchman. In the fall , the Vestry sponsored a conference on ExiSJbentialism, which included outstanding scholars in the field from Harvard, Princeton and Trinity. Following the Spring Dinner, a talk was given by a seminarian (who is a Trinity alumnus) preparing to becorne a missionary for the Church of Africa. His talk dealt with a future of the Anglican Church in Africa.

Groups were set up to allow each student to choose one particular area in which he would be working. In the Fall, the Christian Associ1ation sponsored a clothing drive for the Wo-rld University Service. It also helped in planning the annual Embassy held this year in March. The organization has been fortunate in acquiring the services of Mr. Speed Leas, a gradUiate studlent of Yale Theological Seminary. Mr. Leas will be actively participating in the group's aotiv~ties lllext year.

The Chapel Choir is an integral part of the Sunday Services in the Trinity College Chapel, singing at both Morning Prayer and Evening Vespers. U nder the direction of Professors Watters and Barber, the Choir has di&tinguished itself throughout the Northeast with its repertory of 16th century music. Special Christmas and Len ten Services were sung by the Choir with the choirs of th e Day Prospect Hill School for Girls and the Ethel Wa lker School.

In addition to the r,egular Chapel Choir, several members of the Choir sang with the Boy's Choir of St. John's Episcopal Church in West Hartford as the Cantores Sancti. The Cantores sang two services in the Chapel las t year as well as several outs,i de Trinity. Both groups also serve to introduce some of the fundamentals of choral music to the students and to the visitors of the College.

Hillel So路ciety With the aid of a largJe and active membership and the continued counsel of Rabbi William Cohen, The Hillel Society attempted to give the Jewish students of Trinity a full veligious and social program. Bi-weekly speakers presented topics that enriched the member's basic understanding of their faith, while the religious committee arranged accomodations for those wishing to participate in holiday traditions. The social committee sponsored three mixers with nearby colleges and organized two dances with the local chapter of the B'nai Brith. A source of pride to this year's Hillel Club was their turn to lead the Chapel Cabinet, and, wi<th close cooperation of the other religious clubs, produce the tenth annual Embassy.

The Newman Club of Trinity College is a religious organization for the Roman Catholic students. Its purpose is to foster the religious, intellectual, and social interests of its members in the oollege community. The bi-monthly meetings of the Club consist of lectures by gue8t speakers and student discussions, providing the members with a greater understanding of their faith commensuratJe with the needs of a maturing college man. In addition to the regular meetings, Father Reilly of St. Thomas Seminary, the advisor to the Club, conducts, on alternate Wednesdays, informal courses in the Catholic fai路th, thus further serving the needs of the Catholic student. This past year, the Newman Club enjoyed several additional prop:rams, including a weekend retreat at the Holy Family Monastery alonf< with the representatives of other Connecticut colleges. Wi,th an active social program, including mixers with M:mhaaanville, Smith, and Albertus Mag路nus, the Cluh fulfilled the social interf'sts of its members. As a special program, the Newman club held two joint meetings this year with the Newman Club of Hartford College.

Dan Jessee, sage dean of Trinity's Field House crowd, can spot a soiled spot on a silver-lined cloud in the best tradition of college coaching circles. After initial workouts with the troops which he wou ld lead through the rigors of an eight-game schedule, his comments lacked the assurance one might hope to expect from an outspoken veteran of 29 years of Bantam football. His problem was clear: how to find the right blend of raw sophomore talent and steady upperclass experience. Representing Chet McPhe's undefeated 1959 freshman team were 17 numeral winners and an impressive lot they were: John Szumczyk, 190 pounds of particularly promising livestock, was marked for heavy duty before he had played his first varsity game; John Wardlaw and Tom Calabrese, crowd-pleasing scatbacks, were also making strong bids for starting berths; and

tota l of 163 yards but a pourous pass defense gave way too many crucial moments. The Ephmen, bent on avenging the previous year's 42-12 pa:>ting, performed well on defense inside their own 20 yard line and controlled the play. One week later i-t looked as if the potential was going to become points-on-the-board ahead of schedule. Deep in the woods of up-state New York the sophomore backÂŁi,eld produced for Dan Jessee his first victory of the season and the 125th of his Trinity career at the expense of St. Lawrence, 26-6. Szumczyk scored three touchdowns on runs of ~ight, two and 14 yards and Calabrese sprinted 14 yards to account for all Trin tallies. But things were clue to get worse before the Bantams became a true team. Badly outplayed and outclassed, Trinity pitted its weakness (that light line) against Tufts' strength (a line averaging 211 pounds per man) and got trounced 22-0. The statistics told the grim story! The Bantams accumulated a paltry 36 yards running and 56 yards passing while the Jumbos, &trictly a running club, ground out an awesome 370 yards on the turf.

Bill Fox, a 200 pound yearling lineman, was being . counted on to open large holes for his classmates. Among the nine returning lettermen, Captain Tom Reese and quarterback Tony Sanders were proven stars. Reese, a durable 200 pounder and a Texan to boot, could p lay anywhere on the interior of the line. The 5'8" Sanders, a dazzlingly deceptive quarterback in the Je~see tradition, had re-worked a few pass completion records in 1959. In spite of this formidab l1e array of talent, uncertainties sti ll lurked in Master Dan's mind; for, not only did the young talent need the test of vars~ty fire, but the line lacked heft and depth. These weaknesses were made discouragingly real in the season lidlifter. Shoddy line pl•ay and "buck fever" combined to send the favored Bantams to a 20-7 defeat at the hands of Williams. In a losing effort the Bantams managed to pile up an impressive game high rushing

Determined to forget past agonies and start anew, the Jesseemen traveled to Colby for the game that was to begin to turn the ftide in their favor. A gri•tty second-hal£ performance in a 22-14 losing effort against Colby prompted an optimistic mid-season re-appraisal. The Bantams, trailing 14-0 at the half, roared back to tie tllie score before yielding the final marker. Szumczyk and another sophomore, Carl Lunde borg, scored for Trin. All hands agreed that the team had finally "jelled." Home cooking and a friendly Parents' Day crowd of 4,000 no doubt helped bring the Bantams their second victory. But primary credit must go to the lad Jessee had taken to calling "my galloping kid" -Szumczyk. The thundering Hartfonli•te personally racked up 7,128 inches (198 yards) to lead a sophomore scoring avalanche tha.r buri,ed the Frankl·i n & Marshall Diplomats 32-13. By the time Calabrese, Wardlaw and Lundborg had added TD's to Szumczyk's pair the Bantams had amassed 425 yards rushing and a net of 530 yards. Things were indeed looking up. When the corps of Coast Guard cadets came to town, Tony Sanders had two things to prove. First he set out to show that a military career is not the only way to exercise field leadership. Second, he wanted to indicate to Cadet Coach Otto Graham that the Cleveland Browns Determination The closing ring.

don't have all the fine quavterbacks. After 60 minutes of hard hitting football, Sander's mission was accomp lished and the Btantams had a 21-6 victory. While Sanders was passing effectively and shuffling backfield men deftly, J{jen "Ollie" Cromwell, just in action after an early season injury, was pounding out the Will .

After these suddten successes, a setback was inevitable. Unfortunately it came befor-e 4,500 homecoming fians as a strong Amherst eleven overpowered Trinity 22-8. Trailing 14-0 at h alftime, Sanders unlimbered his throwing arm and carried the team on an 83 yard scoring drive capped by a Cromwell plunge. The Lord Jeffs, alertly capi•talizing on every Bantam miscue, thwarted •a ll fu11ther scoring efforts. Although the lateseason Trinity momentum was slowed, the btest game was just ahead. When Trinity and Wesleyan clash on the gridiron, the excitement is always a•t a peak. This year the traditional rivals outdid themselves by writing a li•t·tle history. For the first time in more than 60 years of play this classic game •ended in a tie, 22-22. T rinity's young and flashy backfield proved equal to what Cardinal Coach Norm Daniels called his best line in a: decade, as both squads ended the season at a standoff. Lundborg, Calabre&e and sotill another sophomore, end Sam Winner, did the Bantam scoring. Trailing 22-8 Ca labrese takes off with no strings attached.

in the third periocl, the Bantams took to the atr and knotted the score. A thrilling last-minute Cardinal field goal attempt was stymied by a fierce Trinity line rush. Better late than never. A healthy Cromwell was elected to Captain the 1961 Bantams. He will ha've the services of two more youngsters who saw limited but impressiv.e service this yearDon T 路a ylor and George Guiliano. A 3-4-1 record is not good for Dan Jessee. It was only the fourth losing season of his career. But late season performances and their promis-e of future repetition make it all seem worthwhile.

M.; Jones, S. P.


Coach Roy Dath's booters slumped slightly from last year's club which compiled a 7-l record, but still managed to win six games while dropping only three. Much of. the trouble arose from the fact that Captain Alex Gmld, who had been given free rein in previous years, found himself guarded by as many as three men at a time. Guild, who had scored 22 goals in 1959, was held to 15. This, however, did not bother the "Flying Scot," as he was still a vital cog in the Bantam offense. ~elping to take up some of the scoring slack were SenIOr Janos Karvazy and Sophomore John Pitcairn. Guild got the Bantams off to a flying start in the opener, turning in a hat trick against Coast Guard in a New London game. Trailing 2-1 with nine minutes remaining in the game, Guild gained possession of the ball in front of the Coast Guard goal, whirled, and fired the shot in. Three minutes later, halfback Ben Hubby fired a pass in front of the goal. Guild, who had scored in the first period on an unassisted romp, stopped the pass and stuffed it in. Heavily guarded in the final minute of play, Guild sent a pass to Karvazy, who made it 4-2. The team then traveled to Cambridge, only to get shut out by a stiff MIT defense, 2-0. Guild was tripleteamed and got very little support from his mates. The team seemed to l'ack the fire which it had caught at New London. The Trin defense was strong, but two rebound shots catapulted into the cage behind Archie Thompson. The Dathmen rebounded by beating Tufts 4-l, in their home opener. Guild scored his s路e cond hat trick of the year in lifting the record to 2-l. The Bantams speedy attack produced a goal seconds after the opening kickoff, as halfback Vinnie Stempien led Guild with a pass, and th~ Captain scooted down the field to put one m the left s1de of the nets. He scored two more in the first period. Coach Dath was able to substitute freely as Karvazy added another in the second period. Trinity's front line notched a total of ten goals against the University of Massachusetts. Keeping the ball deep in Redmen territory for most of the game,

Trinity gave little doubt as to who was in command. Guild and Pitcairn notched three goals apiece. Karvazy netted two, while Ilhi Synn and Don Mills scored one each from their wing spots to give Trin a 10-4 victory. Rising early in the morning (having ldt Hartford at 6:30A.M.) to go to Williamstown for a morning game hurt the Bantams in their encounter, as they were beaten by the Ephmen, 6-4. Williams' team, comprised mostly of Sophomores, ran around the tired Dathmen in spite of the efforts of the ever-present Guild, who racked up another triple. It was the fourth time in the f>eason that the Scot had hit for three. Karvazy scored the other on a tricky lead pass from Guild, but the Ephmen had too much power and reserve strength (plus a good night of sleep.) Goalie Dick Schectman, who played a strong game, was injured midway through the game in a collision with one of the Ephmen in front of the goal. The next week, Trin ran its record to 5-2 with a pair of wins over Union and Woroester Tech. The Union game saw five different players hit the scoring column. In addition to Guild and Karvazy, Mills, Pitcairn and Joe Zocco registered markers. Outstanding defense was turned in by Doug Anderson, Vinnie Stempien and Ben Hubby to stop Union in its tracks. Their only goal came on a scramble in front of the cage. Before a highly partisan crowd in

Hartford, Schectman shut out Worcester while his mates garnered more than enough support. Karvazy climaxed a concerted effort in the first period by putting into the nets a beautifully executed drive. Guild then set up Sophomore Pete Sherin for his first goal. The third and fourth period goals were icing on the cakce. Guild put the Bantams out of reach in the third period and fed Zocco for a fourth. Unbeaten Amherst scored a goal with only three minutes to play and de£eated the Bantams, on the losers' field, 3-2. The goal came on a rebound. An early score in the first quarter gave the Lord Jeffs a 2-1 lead. An outside shot went over Schectman's head, but Karvazy came back to tie on a low liner into the left corner. In the second period the Jeff center stole the ball and scored ahead of a pack of Trinity pursuers. Synn made it 2-2 in the third period, but then in the fourth the Jeffs countered with the margin of victory. The game lowered the Bantams' record to 5-3. Although Guild was throttled, he still played a stellar role in the Bantam attack, as did halfback Ben Hubby who starred for the locals on both the offense and the defense. The hooters finished their season at 6-3 with a 5-3 victory over Wesleyan. The pre-Soph Hop game was played in the mud, but a strong offensive effort by the forwards proved to be the margin of victory. · Pitcairn started the scoring off by slapping in a rebound. In the

second period Wesleyan had become accustomed to ~he mud and slipped two shot~ past Schectman. S~nn .ued the score at two apiece with a well-placed dnve mto the nets. Not to be outdone, Guild countered minutes later on a pass from Karvazy. In the last period, the same combination teamed up, with Karvazy getting credit for the goal. Wesleyan fought savagely in the closing minutes but was only able to score once against a determined Bantam defense. Next year Coach Dath returns with another strong club, in spite of the £:a ct that he loses half of his starters. Guild, Karvazy and Zocco of the forward wall are leaving, but Pitcairn, Synn and Sherin should take up some of the slack. Halfbacks Ben Hubby and Vinn Stempien and fullback Bill Handler, along with with goalie Archie Thomson also graduate; Dath h owever remains with a good nucleus in Schectman and in co-captains .elect Doug Anderson and Baird Morgan. The Freshman team which compiled a 3-3 record had some prospects which Coach Dath hopes will help fill the holes left by the departing seniors.

Guild checks his man.

the team score favored the opponents, 27-29. As Trinity lost to Loomis by a score of 23-32, McGawn again led the Trinity runners but he had to settle for second place in the meet. Mike Long and Lee Moyer also ran commendably, being the only other Hilltoppers to place in the top five Trinity finishers, which they did in all three meets. These three men will return next year to add strength to a growing team. Next year the team will benefit from a new coach and a broadened schedule that will require much more work. For nhe first time, the team will have as its coach, Major John F. LaMar. The outlook for next year is for a team of rising ability and experience.

Trinity's cross country team has suffered from two recent disadvantages. There has been a lack of aboveaverage distance men, and the program has been carried on in an informal manner. The coachless team won only one of the three scheduled meets this season, but the experience revealed some future runners for next year's squad. Sophomore Mal McGawn was the most consistent winner on the team, and should prove to be a good foundation in the building of a better group. McGawn was the first over the University of Hartford's 3.3 mile course in 17:40 minutes, and in so doing lead the team to a 27-33 victory. The lanky Sophomore was again home ahead of the pack in the meet with the Avon Old Farms School, but

Freshman sporrts are risky ventures. Any coach assigned to bring order路 and precision to a group of enthusiastic, but confused freshmen is a man to be pitied. But no one need pity freshman mentor Chet McPhee. Coach McPhee had only three weeks to form a unit. His candidates were not overly impressive; there were no big name school stars. But the resulting 3-1-1 record speaks for itself. A huge line (more than l 0 pounds per man heavier nhan the varsity forward wall) paved the way for a fine running attack by backs Bill Campbell, Terry Oulundsen and Larry "Tank" Silver and a winning team was assured. Athletic teams-and especially freshman teams-be-

ing what they are, must expect inconsistent performances. After opening with impressive triumphs over Springfield and Taft, McPhee's yearlings were forced to battle from behind to tie Coast Guard. Fortunately, form was regained in time to thump the Wesleyan Frosh in the next contest. The season ended on a low note as the Amherst Freshmen inflicted the first and only defeat on McPhee's pupils. Coach McPhee will likely see several of his underlings serve Dan Jessee's varsity corps in the next few years. Those picked to be prominent are Campbell, Oulundsen, Silver, Gerry Denault, Doug Drynan and Bill Avery.

However, despite these inadequacies, his team earned a creditable 3-3 record. In this final game the injury jinx finally caught up with the team's leading scorer, center forward John Gordon. Having tallied seven goals in the six game slate, including a hat trick in uhe 7-0 season opening romp over the Wesleyan J.V.'s, he was felled by a knee injury with two periods remaining in the game. It was that kind of year for the Frosh. But all was not in vain. Coach Roy Dath will welcome to the varsity such proven performers as Gordon, Peter Hodges, Dave "Buzz" Tompkins and Captain Arnold Wood.

'!\Then 35 candidates turned out this September to greet Coach Robert Shults, the initial reports from the front office were somewhat short of enthusiastic. In concontrast to other soccer squads that he has successfully coached, the taciturn "Robie" Shults felt that his 1960 ec!J~tion would be short on experience and shallow in depth. When, at dusk on November 11, Coach Shults trudged toward the Middletown dressing following the season-ending setback at the hands of the Wesleyan frosh, he could be sure that lack of depth and experience and an unforeseeable wave of injuries to key performers had kept the squad operating below maximum efficiency.

As New England was suffering from an unusually hard winter with an enormous amount of snow, the Trinity hoopmen were also finding their season unusually difficult, winning only four games out of seventeen. The loss of several key players from the 1960 squad proved to be a greater handicap than originally had been expected. The vital loss, as was evident throughout the season, was the rebounding prowess displayed by both Charlie Bergmann and Ken Lyons of the 1960 team. Despite the return of veterans Doug Tansill, John Norman, and Bill Scully, a standout performer of the Freshman squad in 1958, the Bantams were not able to combine . "the new and the old" into a winning combination. The sun did break through the clouds once in a while, and paved the way for a thaw. Sophomores Brian Brooks and Jack Wagget t showed a great deal of poise and abil·i•ty on the floor and proved their usefulness on innumerable occasions. Captain Doug Tansill, playing the best ball of his career, always played a cool, and consistent game. Tansill not only was a valuable rebounder, but also proved to be an unexpected asset in the scoring column. John Norman, the local talent, who set the eyes of all New England on him last season, again played a dazzling game. His "kangeroo" leap, his deadly onebander from the outside, and his cat-like rebounding once again made Norman a threat to all opposition. Performing well before a local crowd, the Bantams initiated their season with a victory over the Coast Guard Academy. Norman, impressive as ever, shot eleven goals from the floor and twelve from the free throw line for a total of thirty points. Tansill and Brooks, the latter making his varsity debut, aided the cause by each chipping in seventeen points. In a contest against M.I.T. the Hilltoppers found a four point deficit too much to overcome. Norman, always the wedge of the Trinity attack, was completely boxed out of action by a clever M.I.T. defense. Tansill, who usually helps share the burden of the game with Norman, was sidelined with a bad ankle. Against Kings Point, the local quintet proved its superiority from the foul line hitting for an imoressive 82.5 percent. Norman dropped in 14 out of 15 free tosses while Brooks hit a perfect 10 for l 0. The offense was well balanced with four of the starters hitting double figures.

Brandenberger snares a rebound.

The weather then turned foul for nearly the rest of the winter months with no signs of a break. Trinity, following sui•t, dropped its next twelve conteSits. Against Worcester, the Bantams fell victim to an ailment which was to plague them for the rest of the season. Trinity stayed ahead or within a few points of the opposition throughout three quarters of the battle, but then, for about ten minutes in the last quarter, "something just didn't click." The shooting for the first half of the games usually offset the lack of rebounding but as soon as the sharp accuracy of the shooters fell, so did Trinity. The defeats that Tufts, Wesleyan, M.I.T., Colby, and Bowdoin leveled against Trinity were all decisive, · but they were all contests which, with a little more cohesiveness, the locals could have won. The 91-69 drubbing which Williams inflicted on Coach McWilliams' team was the only game in which the locals were outplayed. The Amherst loss was unfortunate. The Bantams, suffering from a losing streak of seven games, had lost their confidence and lost to a definitely sub-par Amherst squad. New problems appeared: many Trinity passes went to Amherst defenders, and the shooting was unusually poor as Norman was heavily blanketed and th.e previously excellent foul shooting percentages fell to 50%. There was one bright spot, however._Bob_Brandenburger, a 6'7" newcomer to the squad, looked impressive as he tallied 20 points in his debut. As Spring approached, Trin's basketball squad perked up and gave a prediction of the 1961-62 season In a nip and tuck battle with Union, the local quintet emerged victorious. The second half "plague," for the first time in the season was not apparent as the team improved as the game went on. Sparked by Norman's 30 points-23 of which were scored in the second half-and Sophomore Vic Keen's 12 points, Trinity gave recognition of its renaissance.

The final contest of the season was, for Coach Jay McWilliams, the highlight of the season. Performing well under pressure, the Hill toppers staved off a last minute Brandeis rally to squeeze out an 85-83 victory. In a game which started slowly for both teams, the locals knocked off eleven straight points early in the second half to overcome a slight deficit and take a handy ten point lead. Paced by center Brandenburger who netted 28 points, Tansill with 17, and Brooks with 16, Trinity hit for an impressive 55 % shooting record in the second half. The final g-arne seemed to be a good note on which to end the seaso'n, but an even better note on which to begin next season. Coach McvVilliams felt that his squad improved tremendously throughout the season as witnessed by the face-saving victories over Union and Brandeis. The inability to score against a zone defense, the sloppy ball-handling, and the poor rebounding, McWilliams charged to inexperience. Although losing veteran Tansill, the nucleus of next season's team will be strong with Norman, Brooks, Waggett, Scully, and Brandenburger returning. Coach McWilliams expects, •therefore, to have an experienced, well-balanced squad next year.

As was the case with many of Trinity's athletic teams this year, v1ctory was not a..tways easy for the swimmers. Despite some ot the rat11er large margins of victory that Trinity's opposiuon seemed to have, some of the scores are dece1vmg. In several meets, the margin of victory was dee1ded by the final relay m which the "winner takes all." The problem which Coach Slaughter had this year was a weak bench. His front line men were consistent winners but he found it difficult to take seconds and thirds. Captain Jeff Williams was always a consistent winner in the 220 and 440 yard freestyle events as well as a valuable member of the freestyle relay team. Dave Raymond, only a Sophomore, was outstanding in the individual medley, the backstroke and the freestyle relay team. Rick Ashworth, a distance man, Pete Bundy, an individual and butterfly man, as well as Neil Nichols .and Frank Morse, swimming the 50 yard freestyle and 200 yard breastroke respectively, were also consistent scorers. In their first encounter of the season, the mermen easily outscored Tufts 64-31. They won both relays and registered wins in the 220, 440, 50 freestyle events and in the individual medley, the I 00 yard butterfly, the 200 yard backstroke and the 200 yard breaststroke. In their second encounter the locals found rto competition as they submerged W.P.I. 66-31. The divers, Dick Sankey and Jim McAlister, exceHed as they placed one and two respectively. 路 In a murkish green 60 yard pool at New London, the swimmers dropped their first meet to a strong Coast Guard team. Raymond, Ashworth and Morse were the only individual winners of the day although the freestyle relay team won its r'ace. Although showing a great deal of improvement in all events and an amazing recovery from the Christmas holidays, Coach Slaughter's swimmers lost a well-contested meet to Springfield. Captain Williams again sparked the Trinity team with two victories in his specialties- the 220 and the 440. In the race against Bowdoin in Brunswick, Maine, the swimmers lost to a powerful squad. The Polar Bears took everything except the freestyle relay, the breaststroke and backstroke. In losing to M.I.T., Captain Williams commented that it was Trinity's best effort of the campaign but that a superior M.I.T. bench proved to be the difference. Hard-working Raymond set a new college record for the 200 yard individual medley with a time of 2:26.5.

Gooden goes off the block.

Going into the final relay, which counts seven points for the victor and nothing for the loser, Amherst held a slight 46-43 margin over the Bantams. By nipping Trinity in this relay, the Sabrinas won the meet. Raymond, once again, broke the school reoord in the individual medley with a 2:24.6 clocking. After dropping a close meet to Rensselaer 48-47, the Bantams again broke into the win column with an impressive 59-35 victory over Union. Neil Nichols posted two firsts in the 50 and l 00 yard freestyle races, Williams garnered a first in the 220 and Raymond, in setting a new college backstroke record of 2:20.2, also earned five points. Although dropping their final meet of the season to Wesleyan, the Bantams are not discouraged for they feel that the ground work has been laid for a successful season next year. With Bundy, Ashworth, Raymond, McAlister and Sankey returning, and the addition of several outstanding members of this year's Freshman team, Coach Slaughter looks forward to a winning season next year.

A flying start.

out the la~t two positions. The courtmen opened the season on the wrong foot, dropping three pre-vacation matches to Army, Navy and Amherst. January found the Bantams faring better, as they crushed Wesleyan 8-l. The team then suffered a heartbreaking loss to Williams on the latter's courts, 4-5, and then a defeat at the hands of Yale, a highly ranked power. After the Fordham match was cancelled due to inclement weather, Coach Roy Dath's charges rebounded with a convincing win over the Engineers o.f M.I.T. In a return contest with Amherst, the Bantams could do no better than before. The season ended wi th a second victory over Wesleyan by a 6-3 count. Although several of the top players will graduate in June, Coach Dath looks forward to an improved record next season. Captain-elect Don Mills, undisputedly one of the finest racquetmen in the country, heads the list of returnees. Dath also expects that several of this year's Freshmen will break into the lineup and give it some depth.

The 1960-61 edition of the varsity squash team experienced a rather disappointing 3-6 record. Encouraged by numerous returning lettermen, the Bantams hoped to post their first winning season in several years, but were unable to overcome their traditionally formidable foes: Army, Navy, Yale, Williams and Amherst. A bright spot in an otherwise mediocre season however, was the brilliant play of Junior Don Mills, who became the first Trinity man to complete the schedule undefeated in the number one position. Among his victims was Yale's top racquetman, Ralph Howe, who was ranked third in the nation. In post season competition Mills reached the semi-finals of the national collegiate tournament. Follow-ing M ills on the ladder were Seniors Kit Illick and Bob Spahr, who held clown the number two and three positions respectively. The only Sophomore to break into the starting lineup was Bob Pope, and he preceded Seniors Mac Wiener, Rod McRae and Ben Hubby who occupied the numbers five, six and seven slots.

tories of 2-1. Agai nst Brandeis the swordsmen evened their season record with a convincing 16-ll victory. Wachtel and Stewart, leading the foil team to an 8-1 win, both earned perfect scores against their opponents. The epee team breezed to an easy 7-2 triumph as Chase, winning three bouts, extended his season's winning streak to eleven straight. The saber team was less successful as only Wickham was able to negotiate a win. In turning out a 7-2 victory, the quickly improving foil team paced the Bantams to a 16-ll conquest over Holy Cross. As Wachtel pos-ted a perfect record, Stewart and Dick Chang each shared the burden with two victories apiece. Although dropping their final match of the season to a more experienced and more polished Harvard squad, the Bantam swordsmen did an admirable job and anticipate a brighter future . With only a few of the fencers graduating, Coach Shaler, who did a splendid job this year, expects that •next year, with an experienced squad to work with, he will have one of the top teams in New England.

Showing a great deal of improvement over the 19591960 season, the fencers completed their season with a highly respectable 3-3 record. The Bantams, although lacking early season experience and depth, had a large squad which progressed steadily throughout the year. The epee team, composed of Bill Chase, Steve Yeaton and Kirby Talley, seemed to have the most success. Wh il e the Bantams dropped their first two matches to M .I.T. and Stevens, the epee team was victorious as it swished past its M.I.T. counterparts 6-3 and out-dualed Stevens 5-4. In winning its first match of the season, all of the individual weapons were successful against Brooklyn College. T he saber team, paced by number one saber Tom W ickh am, who won all three of his bouts, scored a 6-3 victory. The epee team continued its winning ways by out-du aling Brooklyn 5-4 as George Tisdale, a promising young fencer, substituted and got credit for a 5-0 victory over his opponent. The foil team, which had met exceedingly stiff competition in its first two mee ts, also m anaged a victory (5-4) against Brooklyn. Co-captains Pete \Vachtel and Andy Stewart each posted vic-

went to an overtime before Union pulled it out 94-93. The team was strong in all positions, with an excellent bench to supplement the starting five. Outstanding among the starters were Barry Leghorn, former Connecticut All-State basketball player from Hartford's Bu1keley High School ,who avenaged 19.1 points a game, while pulling down an average of 15.2 rebounds per game, Doug Drynan, quarterback of the freshman football team last fall, who played the forward position and avevaged 9.7 points and 9.8 rebounds per game, and Bob Voorhees, a scrappy little guard, whose defensive work was invaluable, and whose all-around ball handling was excellent. Rounding out the other top players were Rufus Blocksidge, a sharpshooting forward, Tom McKune, John Fenrich, and Daryle Uphoff. All of these players are exceMent varsi{y material, and can be counted on to see much varsity action in the next few years.

Blending good shooting, sharp passing, alert ball hawking, and tremendous rebounding, the Freshman team recorded an excellent win-loss record (ll-4). With a solid nucleus of skillfull players to draw from, Coach Robert Shults guided the team to a six game winning streak a:t the beginning of the season. This string included decisive victories over the University of Hartford Frosh (94-68) and the M.I.T. Freshmen (85-54). Following a loss to Wesleyan, the frosh again got on the winning trail as they ran up two successive victories. In a shooting duel with the University of Bridgeport Freshmen, the Bantams lost a heantbreaker (96-91) . A string of three consecutive wins brought the hoopsters to an ll-2 record, including an avenging 92-84 victory over Wesleyan.

A grimacing Polk pounds the ball into the dirt.

With only five returning lettermen from a mediocre 1960 squad, ·coach Dan Jessee undertook a rebuilding program. The Casey Stengel of New England had twoserious problems at the outset of the season: the lack of a front-line catcher and the lack of a strong pitching staff. Junior Rollie Johnson easily solved Jessee's problem of a catcher, as he quickly and skillfully adapted to his new position. At the end of the season he was awarded the Most Valuable Player trophy for his stellar performance as a .receiver. The pitching staff was inexperienced and lacking in depth. Captain Tony Sanders was the workhorse of the staff, appearing in over one half of the games. The little hurler, who spends his autumn months firing a football, did a superb job in holding the opposition at bay. Backing up Sanders was Pete Landerman, the surprise of the pitching staff. Landerman, used mostly as a relief artist, also spelled S•anders with starting assignments. At the conclusion of their spring tour Jessee's charges had won two games while losing only to Navy. In going the route and allowing only five hits, Sanders opened the Bantam season with a 7-2 victory over Catholic University. A day later Pete Landerman picked up a victory against George Washington, while in the third game, John Pitcairn lost a heart-breaker to Navy 4-1. Commenting on the game to a local newspaper repo·r ter, Navy Coach, Max Bishop felt that Trinity had a superior team. In its home opener, four Bantam pitchers could not control the Coast Guard bats as the Coasties overcame ·a

" Safe!"

3-0 deficfit and glided to a 7-3 victory. Several days later the Hilltoppers evened their home record as they nipped Colby in a pitchers' dual, 2-l. Sanders, pitching a brilliant game, allowed only five hits while striking out eight. In the first inning, Trinity took the lead after a bases-loaded walk to Tom Halloran foroed Tom Calabrese across the pJ.ate. The deciding run was scored in the sixth as Doug Anderson and Bill Leahy set up the scoring opportunity with singles. The locals finally lost to Yale after drubbing the Eli for four consecutive years. Although holding a lead up to the fifth inning, too many miscues and sloppy plays by Trinity allowed the Eli to forge ahead. The next 'three games were rough. A.I,.C., Amherst and Springfield got to the heart of Trinity's problem-the second s.tring pitchers. In each of the three losses wildness and lack of effectiveness on the part of Bantam pitching hun the team. In losing, however, there was still some brilliant hitting on the parts of Bill Polk, Rollie Johnson, Bill Leahy, and Dave Raymond.


Power-hitting first baseman Doug Anderson sets his sights.

Polk, a conscientious ballp~ayer, gave a parcel of hope to the Trinity cause in the Springfield game as he blasted a three-run homer. In the fiascos over Coast Guard and Wesleyan, the Bantam bats kept busy. Against Coast Guard, Anderson led the team by belting out four doubles (good for three r.b.i.'s) in six trips to the plate. Johnson aided the cause with a two-run homer. The tilt against arch-rival Wesleyan, saw Sanders knock in six runs while his mates added twelve more hits and ten more runs to give Trin~ty an easy 16-1 tr:iumph. Besides the prolific hitting, the pitching staff was untouchable as Sanders, Landerman and Don Woodruff held the Cardinals to a meager five hits. A thirteen inning pitchers' dual (lasting three hours and thirty five minutes) between Trinity's Pitcairn and 路 Landerman and Williams' reliefer DicK Potsubay ended in a Bant::am victory when Anderson squeezed pinch-runner Sanders across with the decisive run. Two bad innings for starting pitcher Landerman spelled disaster for Trinity as Tufts lowered the boom with a severe 10-4 lashing. Landerman pitched brilliantly except for a four-run fourth inning-capped by a jumbo grand slam home run-and a disasterous ninth. Eleven hits, eight bases on balls and four errors sent the Bantams to their seventh defeat in 13 games as they were drubbed by Worcester i0-2. Anderson's 3 for 4 was the only bright spot of the otherwise gloomy day. The outlook for next year is good. Only one senior, th<llt being Captain Sanders, will be lost. The pitching staff which Sanders vacates should be bol&tered by several Freshmen. The rest of the squad which showed improvement throughout the season will return as a unit next season.

"On this lugubrious occasion ... "

No sweat! Trinity is ahead by five.

This was a season that produced every kind of meet for the track team. Trinity trounced some teams, was badly beaten by others, and experienced some real close contes,ts. No outdoor records fell this season, but there were solid to excellent performances at one time or another throughout the year in nearly every event. The only conf>is>ten.t area of triumph was in the sprints. Capltain Mark Smith, a Junior, never lost a dual meet in the 220. He did lose one 100 yard dash, but that was to the other half of Trinity's swift sprint duo, John Szumczyk. An amazing Wesleyan club, with IC4A _mile champ Spike Paranya along for an easy workout, humbled the Bantams in the season's opener. Cardinal athletes broke four Trinity Field House records while running up their big score. Four Hilltopper Sophomores, including Tom Calabrese (borrowed from the baseball team), John Wardlaw, John Szumczyk, and Vic Keen did manage to set one record for the home team in the four-lap relay. Moving outdoors, the Trinity team suffered a defeat by the slimest margin to the Coast Guard Academy. They won by only I /6th of a point. Indicative of Bantam sprint strength were sweeps in the 100 and 220, compiled in this losing effort. Jim Maryak showed promise in winning the discus with a toss of 136' 8". In easy wins over Union and Middlebury, the 440, 880, and mile were swept by the Trinity men. Emmet:Jt Miller hit his season's peak in the high jump with a leap of 6' l" against Union.

Perry Rianhard ran the 880 in 2:00.0, Charlie Classen the mile in 4:38.0, and smooth-striding Mal McGawn did 9:59.0 in the two mile run. In addi路tion to its 4-3 season, the track squad placed second out of ten in the Eastern Intercollegiate Track and Field Championships held at Worcester. Smith and Szumczyk zipped to a one-two finish in the 100, and the order was reversed in the 220 with Szumczyk winning as Smith was the victim of a confused start. Wardlaw, Maryak, and Keen picked up third路s in the discus, broad jump, and quarter mile, respectively. Wardlaw leaped over 21' in his effort. Mehringer placed fifth in the shotput, and Jim McAlister tied for fifth in the pole vault. This team, like the baseball team, contains hardly any departing Seniors. Unlike Mr. Jessee's squad, however, the Juniors and Sophomores of the track team were on undefeated Freshman teams. As losing was not a habit with them then, neither will it be frequent with next season's varsity team.

superior team. Only Herzig, Mills and the third doubles team of Granger and Clark were able to salvage victories. The Amherst match was closer than the 3-6 score might indicate. Herzig continued his perfect record in singles and also joined Mayer in the doubles for a victory. The only other win was by the second doubles team of Mills and Bennett. The victory over Springfie1d was an abbreviated contest in which everyone on the squad won with the exception of Leddy who was thwarted in his attempt for a victory by a heavy rain. A highlight of the 4-2 season was the brilliant performance that Captain Mayer turned in at the New England Intercollegiate Tennis Championships held at Amherst. Mayer pulled the suprise of the tournament by upsetting sixth seeded Bent Aasnaes of M.I.T. 3-6, 6-3, 6-3. John Herzig was another par excellance performer who completed his season in the number two spot without suffering a single loss. Don Mills, who played number three all season, improving steadily and in post-season competition won the Cleveland Trophy for the outstanding tennis player in the College. Captain Mayer felt that the season was highly successful. He pointed to the marked improvement in spirit and effor,t, and felt that the 'men really put out."

Mayer works toward another victory.

Leddy returns the volley.

Rain, rain, and more rain. This seemed to be the backdrop to the 1961 tennis season. Three of the nine dual matches were cancelled and one more postponed due to the cold, inclement weather which settled over Hartford this spring. Captain Buzz Mayer was the team's number one single's piayer and teamed with John Herzig, the number two man on the ladder, to form the first doubles combination. Don Mills, Bruce Leddy, Ian Bennett, John Granger and Dudley Clark completed the s.ingles line-up and teamed together in various combinations to form the second and third doubles teams. In the opening match against Rhode Island almost everyone on the squad found victory easily. Worcester also fell prey to the Bantams as the latter gained their only shutout. of the season. Although the Holy Cross match was within a set of completion, rain called a halt to the match and Trinity's assured victory was nullified. The scheduled Coast Guard match likewise had to be cancelled; however it was a misunderstanding in the front office which closed the doors on a possible Bantam victory. After more than a week of no competition, the varsity racquetmen returned to the courts in the middle of May to trounce a weak Wesleyan squad. 路 Against M.I.T. the locals were overpowered by a

Stempien snatches a pass in front of the opponent's goal.

In its first season as a recognized varsity sport, the Trinity College lacrosse team did not experience as successful a season as might be hoped. The win-loss record (l-6), however, was not at all indicative of the team's true worth. Suffering from the loss of several key players near the beginning of the season, Coach Chet McPhee was forced to revamp his lineup. The attack, defense, and first midfield made up an experienced starting ten; however, there was a noticeable lack of depth at midfield. This difficulty, which was very hard to overcome throughout the season, proved to be one of the major detriments that resulted in a disappointing season. The opening encounter for the stickmen was at home against a well-balanced Amherst squad. Although Trinity lost quite badly, the Bantam squad showed indications of effective teamwork and a well-balanced attack. Although the W.P.I. game was played on a. muddy field amidst a depressing afternoon rainfall, the Trinity team, playing what was probably its best game of the season, came up on the winning end of a five to three final score. Co-captain Vinny Stempien led the scoring with three goals and one assist, while the defense of Mike Stetson, Mike Getlin, and Co-captain Arthur Gregg was quite effective in baffling the W.P.I. attack. The W.P.I. game unfortunately was the first and last victory which the stickmen were to experience during the season. The team played well against powerful opponents such as Holy Cross and Tufts, but was unable to display much resistance to powerful and more experienced teams such as M.I.T., U. Mass. and Wesleyan.

Even though it is quite hard to classify this season as 1a building year for Trinity lacrosse, there were many bright spots which helped to cover up some of the disappointing aspects of the season. While the Bantam squad was definitely a well-coordinated unit, certain individlllals stood out over the course of the season. The first attack of Dorsey Brown, Tony Sirianni and Vinny Stempien worked the ball well when ' they had it and were credited with over 75% of the goals and assists recorded. At midfield, Dick Cunneen, Fred Neulander, Bob Tyndall, Frank Sears, and Tony Wright all did an excellent job. Led by the skillful stickwork and fine all around play of Mike Stetson, the defense of Mike Getlin, Art Gregg and Will Files did a commendable job throughout the season. The 1961 lacrosse team, while not acquiring a very successful record, was quite productive towards the future success of the sport at Trinity. With the loss of only two starting Seniors, Gregg and Stempien, and with the addition of an experienced group of freshmen, Coach Chet McPhee is looking forward to a successful season next year.

The Trinity golf team, composed of Captain Rod McRae, Bill Byrne, Pete Dunkle, Charles Mackall, Dave Traut, Lee Moyer, and Bob Zimmerman, has recorded an excellent 4-1-l record to date. The team, coached by Mitch Pappas, has made a fine showing in spite of the rain which hampered its early practice sessions. The season opened on April 14, with a 6-l loss to the University of Massachusetts. The Bantam golfers were saved from a whitewash by Pete Dunkle, who won his match on the last hole. A 5-2 victory over Worcester Tech. on April 21 evened the varsity's record at 1-l. The victory was highlighted by Pete Dunkle's round of 74 over the vVachusett Country Club par 72 course. A quadrangular meet with Williams, A.I.C., and Springfield ended in success, as the golfers beat both A.I.C. and Springfield, while tying Williams. The record for the season then stood at 3-l-l. A 4-3 victory over Wesleyan set the stage for the New England Intercollegiate Golf Championship Tournament. Out of a field of twenty-eight schools, the varsity finished a creditable twelfth. The team should be strong next year again, with Sophomores Lee Moyer and Bob Zimmerman having a year's experience and with the return of Captain-elect Pete Dunkle. First Row: Traut, D.

Crew The first year for any organization is one beset by unfo路r seen and seemingly unsolvable obstacles. The Trinity College Rowing Association's first year was no exception; it was to the club's credit that it was able to row in six meets and make a showing that was reasonable. The biggest problems facing the oarsmen were to find a place to row, shells to row in, and oars with which to row. A tobacco barn on the banks of the Connecticut provided a boat house, Clark University loaned a shell, a second shell and oars were purchased from a boat club in Philadelphia, and a sixty-five foot dock was built and launched. The position of coach was fi ll ed by C. Baird Morgan, Jr., 路also the Association's President and founder. The first race was against Clark University on Lake Quinsigamond. Trinity had been on the water for three days, and was thus surprised to win by two and onehalf lengths. The win gave the Association much needed confidence, and brought out the fact that the crew had potential, despite its extreme roughness. Two days later the crew went down in defeat to the Drexel Institute of

Technology in Philadelphia. The Trinity Crew never having rowed a mile and five-sixteenths before lost the race although it appeared to be the smoother of the two crews. American International College was the next opponent, and both Bantam crews lost their races. However, at Worcester, several days later, Trinity's first boat placed second, losing only to Amherst, but beating AIC, Clark, and Marist. The second boat also placed second, losing to Amherst but beating Clark. Both Crews lost again to Amherst during the next week, and also bowed to the superior crews of Fordham. At the Crew Banquet presided over by faculty advisor John Mason, President Morgan announced that Gordon A. Helander, the coach who had put Brown's crews so firmly on the map, would be coaching at Trinity next year. Morgan also stated that the Association hoped to be able to purchase a new shell for the following season, and summed up his remarks with the appropri'ate state1nent that "our victories are not impressive when judged by the standards of organized crew racing, but our achievements, spirit and potential are."

Frosh as Trinity could only muster four hits. In the Springfield tilt pitcher Ahlgren's wildness and his mates' sloppiness in the field enabled the opposition to score two runs in the third and five runs in the fourth for an insurmountable total of seven. Catcher Ken Parsons, Voorhess and Ahlgren each collected two hits in the losing cause. A strong Bridgeport team laced the Bantam pitching staff for nine runs in as many innings to hand the locals their first shutout of the season. The next two games were no more successful as the yearlings succumbed to both Kingswood and St. Thomas Seminary. The season was not as prosperous as had been expected. However, there was a great deal of potential on the squad which Dan Jessee should enjoy exploiting next year. Several men proved their ability at the plate but need some polish in the field . The pitchers, winners when they had a large lead, need experience and coolness in the tight-spots.

In winning its first three contests the Freshman baseball team looked impressive. Thumping Yale in their first game, the yearlings, behind the pitching of Dave Ahlgren and Chris McNeil, knocked out eight hits which were good for nine runs. Bob Voorhees, Bert Williams, Jerry Denault, Dick Towle and Bruce MacDougall, the sluggers of the squad, all contributed to the victory. These same men continued their hitting rampage as they helped McNeil gain his first win of the season over Kent. Collecting hits, the Bantams gave McNeil his second triumph of the year as they bested St. Thomas Seminary 7-5. McNeil, who went the distance, was never in any serious trouble; the five runs scored against him were flukes resulting from wind-blown balls or errors. A formidable Amherst hitting attack and the four-hit pitching of Amherst's Jim Scribner overpowered the Trinity Frosh by a 10-2 score. Three days later, McNeil dropped his first game of the season to the W路esleyan

Despite its below average record, this year's Freshman track team managed to provide tough competition for its opponents. The l-3-1 record includes a one point loss to rival Amherst and a tie with highly rated Central Connecticut State College. The outcome of both meets was decided with the running of the last event. Trinity's inability to win the 880-yard rel>ay resulted in the loss of victories which would have made the season highly successful.

220 lows. 路Bob Schilpp, a constant scorer, was the team's "workhorse," runmng the hurdles and the dashes in every meet. Scott Gregory was the only outstanding distance man. The team was also strong in the field events. Although Jeff Thomases' throw of 115' 11" was the season's best, Mike Ingram was the most consistent winner in the discus . Ziggy Pabich won three out of five shot put events, his best put being 47' 1" . Bill Daley mowed down most opposition in the pole vault while Dave Galaty was a strong performer in the high and broad jumps. Arnie Wood wa s defeated only once in the javelin. Although Coach McWilliams' team did not finish with an outstanding record, several of the individual performers will undoubtedly be assets to next year's varsity.

Nevertheless, strong performances were given in other events throughout the year. In the opening met against a mediocre Avon team, John Burton raced to victories in both hurdle events and the 100yard dash. Bill Campbell's victories in the 100, 200, and 440-yard dashes highlighted the second meet. His time 'of 51.9 in the 440 was the year's best. Ron Brackett, before his injury, did exceptionally well in the 440 and the hurdles, running a 26.2 in the

Despite the 3-4 record, the Freshman tennis team showed a great deal of improvement and promise as it swept three out of its last four matches. Bill Minot, a standout squash player, also performed well at the number one spot on the tennis ladder. Dave Hemphill, playing number two, improved rapidly throughout the season and showed signs of being a top-notch player. Tom Stevens, Dave Pyle, Bob Miller and Alan Wallace rounded out the rest of the squad. In their first match of the season, the Bantam yearlings were only able to garner two singles matches-by Miller and Wallace-as they were defeated 6-3 at the hands of Taft School. While Minot, plagued by a faulty backhand, lost his match, Hemphill, in three sets, dropped his game to a more experienced lad.

Having been rained ou.t for a week, the Bantams returned to the courts only to be shutout by a powerful Choate squad. Determined to improve their record, Coach Dath's Frosh, after dropping their third straight match, this time to Loomis, retaliated by licking Wesleyan 5-2 and M.I.T. 5-4. Against Wesleyan and against M.I.T. these same men and AI Wallace all scored victories. The only defeats by M.I.T. were the three doubles matches. Although losing to the Amherst Freshmen, the Bantams finished out the season in good form as they rolled over Westminster 81j2 -llh.

setting himself four goals and one assist and the captaincy. Plass was closely followed by Mike Malm who recorded five goals and one assist which is very commendable for a novice. Other outstanding newcomers who should hJave a great future in lacrosse are Lewis Borden, Player Crosby, Paul Kadlic, Peter Schaefer, Larry Silver, and Joe Sinicrope. Before opening its official season the team had an excellent scrimmage with Marvelwood School in which the Frosh emerged victorious after a hard fought and close game. With the start of the regular season the team ran into its toughest opposition, Wesleyan. But after this defeat it bou nced back to conquer University of Massachussets, 13-6. The season wound up with three losses even though the squad put up good fights in each game.

History was made when the first Trinity freshman lacrosse team went into action this year after last year's ruling making lacrosse a varsity sport. The team had a poor season as far as the won and lost record is concerned (1-4), but much was accomplished against overwhelming odds. There was no coach at the beginning of the season, but finally Trinity's former Little AllAmerican footba ll p layer, Charles Sticka, stepped in. Although he had had little or no experience with lacrosse, he learned quickly and did a marvelous job with a group of inexperienced but eager and determined Frosh. Randy Plass, Chris Giison, Ian Smith, and Mal Zickler were the only players with previous experience, and they did a great job in helping Sticka and their teammates to learn the game. Smith led the defensive play while Plass led the offense with six goals. Gilson proved himself an outstanding all-around player and leader by
