ALONG THE WALK

IT MUST BE SPRING. Bishop Brownell was outfitted with a toga to promote an upcoming weekend toga theme party on the campus.

Alumni Magazine, Newsletter Get Good Marks From Readers Class notes is the best read section of the Reporter; achievements and profiles of alumni rate highest in overall reader interest; women readers want to learn about admis-

sions and student life, while men prefer articles about fellow alumni and nostalgia. These fmdings were among the conclusions drawn from a recent survey of a random sample of 500 alumni and parents who receive the Trinity Reporter and Along the Walk. The survey was designed by Reporter Editor Bill Churchill with the assistance ofWenda Harris Millard

'76, former publisher of Adweek, and Professor Noreen Channels of the sociology department. "The reader poll had two primary goals," according to Churchill. "First, we wanted to know what articles people were reading in the current magazine and newsletter. Second, we were interested in what readers wanted us to cover in future issues." In rank order the best read sections of the magazine are: 1) class notes, 2) photographic features , 3) Along the Walk (news section), 4) alumni profiles and features , 5) sports. The top ten readers' choices for future articles are: 1) alumni achievements and proflles, 2) admissions, 3) student life, 4) campus events, 5) history/nostalgia, 6) culture (music, art, theater), 7) curricular issues, 8) financial state of the College, 9) humor, 10) institutional news & faculty research. Over 75 percent of the respondents rated the magazine either excellent or good in terms of overall interest. The quality of the writing and the magazine's readability were cited as its chief strengths . The survey also explored whether there were differences in readers' tastes depending upon such variables as sex, age, 'and undergraduate major. These questions were asked with an eye to the changing nature of the alumni body, which is becorning more diverse and will eventually reflect parity between males and females. There were some differences in the interests of men and women readers . Women rated admissions as their top interest followed by student life, alumni proft!es, campus. events and culture. Men ranked alumni profiles first, followed by history and nostalgia, admissions, the fmancial state of the College and

THE WALK

campus events. Both groups gave the lowest preference ratings to poetry and fiction. In terms of undergraduate areas of study, the humanities majors were the most avid readers of book reviews and faculty profiles . Social science majors liked the faculty news and the full-length articles , while science majors were the most devoted readers of class notes (93%) . Arts majors ranked sports as their favorite section of the magazme. Reading preferences according to age were somewhat predictable. The older alumni read the magazine most thoroughly. Over 25 percent of the '20s to '40s graduates read all the full-length feature articles, and 94 percent read class notes. Unlike the younger classes, they also read the obituaries. The more recent graduates were most interested in breaking news and had the best readership of Along the Walk . In terms of overall interest, the magazine ranked highest with alumni from the '80s with over 85 percent giving it an excellent or good rating. Alumni from the '70s and from the '20s to '40s era also gave the magazine high marks. Graduates from the '50s were the most critical of the publication with only 62 percent rating it excellent or good. "We're not really certain why fifties graduates fmd the magazine less appealing than other classes," Churchill said. " My guess is that family and career pressures may limit the reading time of this group, but we will have to explore this question in more depth to find the answer. " The newsletter, Along the Walk, was cited for its brevity and content. Most respondents felt that the current frequency of four newsletters and four magazines a year was a good balance, and that the amount of information they were receiving from Trinity was "about right." Churchill indicated that the editors would use the survey results as a reference point in determining the content of future issues. " This is the

POET-IN-RE SIDENCE Margaret Gibson led four poetry workshops for local h igh school studen ts during her ten-day Mar ch residency at the College. G ibson also took part in Trinity poetry writing classes, gave two public reading s of her poems, and held individual consultations with under graduate poets throughout her stay on campus. She has written four books of poetry and is a past winner of the Melvin Cane Award from the Poet r y Society of America .

first time we have had any substantial feedback from our readers , and we will try to be responsive to their desires, " he stated. "We probably should do this again in another five years to see if the reading patterns and interests have changed. Of course, those who don't want to wait that long are encouraged to air their suggestions and comments either in our 'Letters' column or by direct communication with the editor. "

Construction Projects Making Good Progress Despite the rigors of the recent winter weather, campus construction and renovation projects are " proceeding very smoothly, " according to Siu-Chim Chan, director of buildings and grounds. Steelwork and the basic mechanical work on the new academic building have been completed, and the concrete block masonry phase is

well underway. Installation of the exterior brick facing began in March. When completed in January, 1991 , the 4 7, 000-square- foot structure will house the mathematics department, the computing center, the mathematics center, and the department of engineering and computer science. T he Smith Alumni/Faculty House on Vernon Street is progressing after a delay caused by extended negotiations with the City over building code interpretations. An addition housing the dining and kitchen areas has been closed in and the installation of an elevator and new stairwell is virtually done. Interior fmishing is now underway, according to Chan, and the building will be completed in late May in time for Reunion. The building is named for the late Allan K . Smith ' 11 and his widow, Gwendolyn Miles Smith, who were the chief benefactors for the new facility. Expansion of the English department quarters and of the Writing Center at 115 Vernon Street is par-

ALONG TH

tially done. Faculty offices on the third floor are now occupied and the Writing Center offices, seminar room and computer facility are in operation on the first floor. Faculty offices on the second floor will be completed over the summer. Landscaping for the English department building will be coordinated with the adjacent Smith Alumni/Faculty House in the coming months. The third phase of the Seabury Tower renovation has also been completed. Former student rooms on the second and third floors have been converted to offices, a seminar room and a library/ lounge for the political science department. Two more phases of renovation are slated for Seabury and will involve the first floor and basement. A notable feature of this project has been the preservation of Seabury's architectural character in the conversion process.

Grant Helps Seniors With Job Search, Grad School Fees More than 30 seniors receiving financial aid have benefited from a $5,000 grant given to the College by the Hartford-based retailer G . Fox and Co. and The May Co. According to Rozanne Burt, director of career counseling, the G. Fox Opportunity Grant Program provided the seniors with stipends to help defray costs associated with applicatioqs for graduate study or a job search. Burt conceived of an application for the grant money after consultation with Anne Zartarian, director of financial aid. "I felt that a broad, institutionwide use of the grant was possible. I know that financial aid students in their senior year often struggle to pay for the costs of graduate school tests and fees and the costs of interview attire, travel, telephone, etc. I asked Anne Zartarian for her ideas for a structured program to use the grant. And so this program was created, " says Burt.

SMITH Alumni/Faculty House will be ready for Reunion.

The stipends were used to help defray the costs of standardized test fees for graduate schools; graduate and professional school application fees ; travel required for admission interviews to a professional school where an interview is required, or to attend Trinity-sponsored, off-campus recruiting consortia in New York, Boston, and Washington, D. C.; and job search expenses such as long distance telephone interviews, interviewing attire, or printing costs for resumes and job search correspondence. The stipends were approved only when all established assistance programs had been used, including application fee waivers at schools and fee waivers for standardized tests for graduate or professional school admission. "Administering this grant allowed us to make financial aid students conscious of the fee waiver programs that are out there and educate them to take advantage of them," Zartarian said . "This grant came at an especially good time, because the federal government has prohibited us from using their funds to help students with these expenses ." A general guideline of $200 per student was set, with an average sti-

pend of$150. "To date we have used about $4500," Burt said. "The program has worked quite well and equitably. Instead of limiting their options because of costs for application fees or travel to consortium interviews, seniors through this grant program have been given the support they needed to act on opportunities." Kristin Cummings of Bristol, Conn. got considerable mileage through the grant. "I used it a lot for the recruiting consortia in New York and Boston. Those are all initial interviews, so the companies don't cover a lot of the expenses. Students had to pay the expenses of traveling to and from those meetings . I spent money on suits and blouses and shoes, phone calls and stationery, resume printing, postage. It helped with all of that." An economics major, Cummings has had interviews with Salomon Brothers in New York, John Hancock Financial Services in Boston, and The Travelers Cos. and Arthur Andersen Co. in Hartford. If the G. Fox Opportunity Grant had not been available, she says, she would have had to work much more. "I was pretty intent on going [to the consortia meetings]," she said.

Another senior said that he used the grant for fees for the law school admission test and train tickets to New York for the recruiting consortia. Though no interviews came about after that meeting , he said, it was worthwhile in providing "good interviewing skill practice" for him.

Prizewinning Poet Joins State Poetry Circuit

Trinity's Connecticut Student Poet Kimberly Peters '91 first began writing poetry when she came to Trinity in the fall of 1987. "I took Literary Writing 110 with Hugh Ogden and had no idea what I was getting myself into," she says now. "I had never done any writing before and I was terrified. I didn't have much luck with it at first, but I kept plugging along through the literary writing program and then decided to choose it for my major. Later I decided to include literature in that major. "Hugh Ogden is now my adviser and my greatest inspiration. He has pushed me to keep writing and I owe a great deal to him for the things which I have accomplished so far. I don't think I would have chosen this direction if it were not for his support (and badgering) ." Peters is one of five Connecticut Student Poets for 1990, chosen for the honor on the basis of a statewide competition sponsored by the Connecticut Poetry Circuit. The students read from their works in February appearances at colleges throughout the state. Two of Peters' poems were published in an issue of Northeast Magazine of The Hartford Courant that featured the work of student writers . Last spring she won the annual John Curtis Underwood Memorial Prize for Poetry at Trinity. Lately, she says, she has been experimenting with her writing in order to develop her own style and voice. She's also begun reading the works of international poets such as

Rilke and Lorca, in addition to current favorite writers Stephen Dunn, Sharon Olds, Gerald Stern and Alice Walker. After graduation the Rocky Hill, Conn. native plans to teach English at the high school level and eventually at the coll ege level.

"The College is willing to invest more resources toward it," Chan said, "but first we want to develop a viable plan, one that we would be able to continue with. It has to be customized to our operation. If it were as simple as buying a car, it would have been done a long time ago. We' re talking about educating people and departments." Trinity's business manager and budget director Alan Sauer, who has been working with the students on the program, agreed that launching the recycling effort in a "controlled fashion" would ensure its long-term success. "We can make sure that we can administer the program and at the same time be socially responsible," he said.

Faculty Promotions Are Announced

Speaker Found Guilty Of Racial Harassment On the day of a second campus appearance by Minister Don Muhammad of the Nation of Islam, the College's Racial Harassment Committee announced it had found him guilty of racial harassment during his November 21 talk at Trinity. Highlights of the Committee report included three primary points: First, the Committee condemned Minister Muhammad for an antiSemitic attack on a student during â&#x20AC;˘the question-and-answer portion of the program and strongly objected to Muhammad's "contribution to the overall atmosphere of intimidation that prevailed." Second, the Committee concluded that the Minister's talk, while offensive to some members of the

audience, did not violate the racial harassment policy. The Committee voiced its strong support of his right to free speech and academic freedom in his lecture and in any subsequent lecture at Trinity. Finally, the Committee urged President Gerety to develop a policy that directs all speakers and sponsoring organizations to work together to ensure an environment of mutual respect at all College events. The Minister delivered his second lecture on March 13 after some lengthy negotiations between the College administration and the sponsoring student group, the Pan African Alliance (P AA) . Discussion centered about the location of the talk, the appropriate security arrangements, and whether the public would be admitted. Despite a concerted campaign by P AA to hold the event in Ferris Athletic Center, the Administration, after consultation with security officials and other colleges, ruled that the event would take place in Mather Hall and would be limited to the Trinity community only. Concerns about the limited seating and about the presence of possible outside protesters were major factors in the decision to close the talk to the public. Muhammad's speech went on as scheduled with an audience of about 250 on hand. Mean~hile, outside Mather, a group of about 60 stu-

dents held a peaceful, candlelight vigil to protest the Minister's reappearance on campus after being found guilty of racial harassment. The evening passed without incident. Commenting on the presence of controversial speakers at Trinity, President Gerety said his position was based on two principles: "First, Trinity College remains open at all times to the free expression of ideas, even ideas that offend. Second, we must always take reasonable precautions to secure the safety of our students, staff, faculty and guests."

Admissions Applications Defy Demographics Despite a slight dip in applications - about two percent less than a year ago - Trinity is weathering the lean years for admissions in good shape, according to Dean of Admissions and Financial Aid David Borus '68. "In a year when the number of high school graduates is down nearly 10 percent in the Northeast, we are happy to be holding our own when many of our competitors are reporting application declines between 5 and 15 percent," Borus stated. (C ontinued on page 8)

Trinity was amor1g 24 U.S. colleges and universities that made history in March 1988 when they entered into a new student exchange program with the Soviet Union . In its first year, 1988-89, the American Collegiate Consortium for EastWest Cultural and Academic Exchange brought 56 Soviet undergraduates to study in the United States. Those students were the first unchaperoned Soviet undergraduates to be allowed to study in this country . Trinity's first two Soviet students, George Okribelashvili of Georgia and Kalev Kask of Estonia, were replaced this year by Russians Yan Mazur and Igor Serebriakov. At the same time, two Trinity students, Eric Gazin '91 of Ogdensburg , N.Y., and Gregory Milbourne '90 of Strafford, Pa., went offto spend the year at Belorussia State University in Minsk and the Historical Archives Institute in Moscow, respectively. The letter on page 7 was sent to the Reporter by Milbourne, who promised to write home about his experiences in the U .S .S .R .

January 20, 1990

In gross contrast to the warm and public reception the Soviet students received at Trinity, when I arrived at my institute, they didn't know we were coming until that very day. In fact, picking us up from our hotel, they had to flag down an extra taxi to carry all of our luggage to our dormitory. The dorm, built just four years ago, looks like a 15-year-old building in the States, with cracking plaster walls and crumbling concrete atairs. The institute itself is located in the very center of Moscow (unlike the dorm, which lies 40 minutes by Metro to the south on th.e outskirts of the city). Directed by well-known critic of the government Yuri Afanasyev, the Historical Archives Institute is just a half a block from Red Square! Every time I go in to school, I glance down the streets to the beautiful towers of the Kremlin. But the Soviet system of education bears little resemblance to ours at Trinity. Instead of regular work-daily reading, studying, and writing reportsthe Soviet semester demands that students only "cram" for final exams and pass/fail tests at the end of the term. Thus, when I arrived, I was shocked by the students talking in class and a lack of seriousness in general. While my academics did not measure up to Trinity's standards, the difficulties of life here more than compensated. From the very first days in the country, I was shocked by the incredible difficulty of feeding yourself in the Soviet Union. The first day in Moscow, the entire group of American students was led to a stolova.ya, the Russian version of SAGA. If the smell did not immediately put us on guard, the sight of the kitchen did. We lined up to shelves which opened to the kitchen itself. The kitchen, staffed by women wearing dirty white smocks, contained huge cauldrons of soup and meat and banks of stovetops. Nothing looked clean, and the meat was more fat then actual meat. From that day I realized the difficult challenge that lay ahead. But my problem was compounded with difficulties with the Russian language. At the hotel I had trouble asking for my room key! Once we moved into our dorm, my roommate asked me if I wanted to eat, using a verb I didn't know, and I could not understand! Slowly, and with a lot of uncomfortable struggling, I have developed an adequate grasp of the language, but food still remains a problem. When I feel inspired to cook for myself, I go to the only stores near my dorm. The "products," "fruits and vegetables," "bread," and "wine" stores which are in my area serve more than 5,000 people, yet have not one parking place. No one uses cars (because few have them )! In the stores, I can find eggs, milk, bread, horrendous juices, cab-

bage, potatoes, oriions, and beets. Butter, cheese, and a terrible sausage sandwich meat can usually, but not always, be found. So what do I do for fruits and vegetables? Through my five months in the country, I have gotten to know many restaurants in the city. More interesting, though, I have become friends with several families. Soviets who are used to the system have contacts through which they often can receive decent meat, fruits , and other "deficit" items-like coffee!

GREG MILBOURNE '90 had a reunion with Soviet Composer Vitali Gewicksmann whose mass premiered at Trinity in 1989. While the Western press is filled with pages of the "changes" in Eastern Europe and the pledges of Gorbachev, I see little real change in my own life. If anything, all wil1 agree that the situation is getting worse. Gorbachev, who holds great respect in the West, has little real support from his own populace. Everyone is quick to point out how much better the food and consumer products were the year Gorbachev took office than they are now. All that people will usually say in his support is that there is no one better to take his place-Ligachev is not seen as a real alternate. No matter how difficult each day may be in this country, I am always guaranteed an adventure. Two days are never the same; the Metro, which carries countless millions on trains running every one to three minutes each day, provides an excellent overview of the city. There, every day, thousands of soldiers, officers, workers, and "babushkas" (literally, "grandmothers") color my rides with interesting clothes, conversations, and exhausted expressions. Moscow, with over eight million residents and five million daily visitors (mostly from the republics who come to buy food and clothes) is a very crowded, hectic city. After a. few hours of running around, I am always assured a good night's sleep once I get home! Enjoy those comforts we have at home-cars, good stores, and food!

PAULA M. CINTI '92 of Waterbury, Conn. h as received the annual Faculty Scholar Prize at Trinity. The prize is given by the faculty to the sophomore who has shown outstanding achievement and potential, as demonstrated by his or her academic work at Trinity, and entitles the recipient to one free course at the College. Dr. Edward W. Sloan, Charles H. Northam Professor of History, left, and Presidebt Tom Gerety presented the award. (CotJtitJ ued from page 6)

Although it is early in the process of reading files, Borus felt the quality of the 2, 900- candidate pool was exceptional. " We appear to have a large number of very attractive applicants," he said. In keeping with Trinity's efforts to diversify the student body, the numbers of minority applicants continue to grow significantly in all categories. Black and Hispanic applications show increases of 15 percent, while those from Asians are up about 10 percent. There were 153 early decision candidates, which is roughly the same number as last year. About half of this group has been admitted - a somewhat higher ratio of acceptances than the regular applicant pool. Decisions on all applicants w ill be forthcoming in early April, and a prof1le of the Class of 1994 will appear in a future issue of the magazme.

Administrative Appointments Three people were appointed to administra tive positions at the College recent! y. Susan E. Kinz '89 was named assistant director of alumni relations. Kinz earned a B . A. with honors in philosophy. During her senior year, she was the President's Fellow in philosophy, captain of the varsity women's cross country team, resident coordinator and co- chair of the Senior Class Gift Committee. She was an active C lass Committee member and an alumni relations assistant. A member ofPhi Beta Kappa, she won the Trinity College Human Relations A ward and a Senior Achievement Award in 1989. Diane R. Martell was appointed coordinator of the Women's Center. Most recently, she was field placement coordinator for the Women's

Semester internship program at the University of Connecticut. Prior to that, she was executive director of the Connecticut N ational Abortion Rights Action League. She serves on the City of Hartford Commission on Human Relations and other community service organizations . A 1979 graduate of the University of M assachusetts, she holds a master's degree in social work from the University of Connecticut. She has taught courses in social work and women's studies at UConn's Hartford campus. Nancy B irch Wagner was named registrar of the College. Before corning to Trinity, she was assistant dean of the college at Wesleyan University, where she served as dean for transfer and exchange students and as dean of the junior class. From 1980-88, she was registrar of Hartford Graduate Center, w here she also served as accreditation liaison officer from 1986-88. She is a 1970 cum laude graduate of Vassar College and holds a Ph.D. in Germanic languages and literatures from Yale University. She has taught at Wesleyan and Yale.

Chaplain Alan Tull To Leave Trinity After 26 Years After 25 years as chaplain, and 26 as a member of the religion department faculty, Alan C. Tullis retiring at the end of the spring semester as shepherd ofTrinity's flock. " This is a good kind of a bench mark to think about other possibilities," Tull said in announcing his decision to the College community. Because he has been given the option to continue at Trinity through the end of 1990 on a leave of absence, Tull says he intends to spend three or four months planning his next move. "I have lots of ideas about what to do next, but I can't do them all," he says, without offering any clues as to his plans.

nual "Lessons and Carols," memorial services, and weddings. A graduate of Stanford University, Tull earned both a bachelor's degree and a doctorate fro~ General Theological Serrilnary. Before coming to Trinity, he was vicar of an Episcopal church in his home state of Utah and at the same time was priest-in-charge of a church in Colorado and of two missions to the Ute Indians. During that period, he conducted three services each Sunday in churches and missions 180 rrilles apart. A committee to choose Tull's successor is being formed.

Trinity to Host Black Alumni Gathering ACTOR Giancarlo Esposito, who co-starred in Spike Lee's 1989 film Do the Right Thing, gave a talk titled "Does Do the Right Thing Promote Racism?" as part of the College's Black History Month observances in February. Mary F. Berry, commissioner of the U.S. Commission on Civil Rights, also spoke. Other lectures, performances and films relating to black Ameri~n culture, past and present, were part of the annual month-long observances.

Tull came to Triruty as an instructor of religion. Before he began teaching, the chaplaincy became vacant and he was asked to ftll in. He was officially named chaplain in February 1965. Tull's contributions to the College are numerous. He designed the religion department's general examination program, which was !lSed for 20 years before it was retired this year. During his tenure, the Chapel saw the installation of a new organ and case, the construction of a main entry, and the addition of wrought iron gates to the Friendship Chapel. Tull has been the key promoter of Trinity's summer carillon concert series and overseer of myriad ceremonial occasions, including the an-

Black alumru from all classes are invited back to campus Sept. 28-30 for Black Alumni Gathering, a weekend program planned to unite this alumru group and enlist its support for various College goals. Both black students and alumni suggested the program with the hope of helping the two develop new ties anq expand on existing ones, such as the mentor program in which alumni volunteer to be paired with students to provide insig\1t and moral support. The alumni also expressed interest in learning more about how they can become involved in admissions, alumru and other College efforts. The weekend will include alumril/ student athletic competitions, faculty lectqres and student panels, a pre-game luncheon on Saturday with black students, a Saturday rught dinner followed by a dance open to all students, and Sunday eucharist with black alumru clergy . There also will be a children's program of activities and babysitting services. Joanne A. Epps '73 and Donald K. Jackson '83 are co-chairpersons of the event. The College has several hundred black alumni, however records are

incomplete because until recently, student information did not include race. Efforts have been made to update the information and a directory of b~ack alumni is being mailed to those listed in it. Any black alumni who do not receive the mailing or who know of names rrilssing from the directory are asked to contact the Alumni Office, (203) 297-2400.

Alumni College, Tour Of Eastern Europe Top Summer Events Events sweeping Eastern Europe and the USSR - events that were inconceivable as recently as one year ago - will be discussed and debated at Trinity's fifth annual Alumni College June 28-30. Immediately following the on-campus program, the College is sponsoring a faculty-led tour of five Eastern European cities and the USSR. Both the program and the tour are open to alumni, parents and friends of the College. "And the Walls Came Tumbling Down! Communism's Contemporary Crisis" will examine the people and events that are shaping new governments and economies, and changing the way people look at communism and democracy. What has been a way of life for generations of Germans, Soviets, Poles, Hungarians, Czechs and other eastern Europeans, is history. What lies ahead is unknown and about as predictable as the crumbling of the Berlin Wall. The two-and-a-half day program will feature Trinity faculty, alumni and guest speakers as well as students who will share their experiences of a recent tour. In addition to the historical, political and sociological issues, speakers will address the economic, business and cultural perspectives. A brochure with complete program details will be mailed to all alumni, parents and past participants by the end of March.

ALONG THE WALK

The cost of the program, including meals and accommodations in the newest, air-conditioned dormitory, is $250 per person, $475 per couple. Cost for non-residents is $225 'per person. Following the Alumni College program, the College tour will visit Berlin, Warsaw, Prague, Budapest, Vilnius, Leningrad and Moscow. The itinerary includes meetings with local intellectuals to discuss the political climates. The tour is scheduled fromJuly 2 through 17, and will cost $3395 all inclusive. Nonrefundable deposits of $300 per person are due in the alumni.office by May 1. For further information, contact Gerald]. Hansen, Jr. or Eugenie M. Devine in the Alumni Office, (203) 297-2400.

Schweitzer Named To Board of Trustees

Former National Alumni Association president William H. Schweitzer '66 has been appointed to Trinity's board of trustees. He will serve until 1992, completing th< term of the Rev. George Andrews, II '66. Schweitzer won varsity letters in three sports at Trinity, graduating with a major in history. After receiving his J.D . degree from Georgetown Law Center, he served as assistant U.S . attorney for three years in Washington, D .C . before joining the firm of Baker & Hostetler in that city. He is now administrative partner for the firm's Washington office. An exceptionally active alumnus, he served in several capacities, including as president of a local alumni club and class agent before being elected president of the National Alumni Association. Among his achievements in that post were a revised constitution, more diversified alumni representation, a new long-range plan, and an expanded annual Alumni Leadership Conference. For his service to the College

Quarterly Journal In Playwriting To Be Published Building on its successful publication of a collection of student plays last year, the theater and dance department now has a more ambitious project in the works - publication of a quarterly playwriting journal. As currently envisioned, Playwrights' Quarterly will feature plays by students from around the country as well as articles on the craft of playwriting by professional writers, explained Arthur Feinsod, assistant professor of theater and dance, who will serve as editor-in-chief of Playwrights' Quarterly .

"We want to make Playwrights' Quarterly a craftman'sjournal for the serious playwright. Its main function will be to enable students to look over the shoulders of great playwrights and watch them work - in a sense," said Feinsod, who believes there's a dearth of such publications for playwrights-intraining. The target date for the journal's first issue is the spring of 1991. The publication is funded partly by a bequest to the theater department

cludes ten one-act plays and monologues which were developed in Trinity playwriting courses taught by Feinsod. For example, Peeling Potatoes, a one-act play by William H. Lewis II '89, was performed in Iowa by the Waldorf College theater department last fall. Project X Theatre Company, a professional theater company in Ashton, Ore., plans to produce Peeling Potatoes as part of a series of plays set on porches. Lewis now teaches English at McCallie School in Chattanooga, Tenn. and continues to write plays. Methusalife and Escapism, a play by Jennifer Rider '90, was given a reading by Hartford's Company One. A monologue by Susan Baker '90, Respectfolly Yours, had a staged reading by Works By Women, a New York-based organization committed to increasing visibility for women playwrights and directors worldwide. Copies of Strawberries , Potatoes, and Other Fantasies are available in bookstores ranging from the Trinity College Bookstore to the Drama Bookshop in New York. Libraries at Trinity, Swarthmore College, Yale University, Wesleyan University and the University of Connecticut are among those that have added the anthology to their collections . And, it's listed in the catalog section of The Applause Theatre Book Review and Catalog.

So far, Feinsod said, about 15 college theater departments and several playwrights who received copies of Strawberries, Potatoes, and Other Fantasies want to be involved with Playwrights' Quarterly. "I feel proud of Strawberries, Potatoes and Other Fantasies, and I'm glad

that the reception has been positive," added Feinsod, who co-edited the anthology along with Tim Cunningham '88.

Grappling with issue the complexities the free speech has been a of testing experience at Trinity and many other colleges and universities this year. Some of the questions are perennial ones like academic freedom and the open exchange of ideas in the classroom. Others involve the care and handling of contentious, sometimes offensive, speakers who appear on campus. There are concerns over ways to protect individuals and groups from verbal intimidation, and struggles with self-appointed arbiters of artistic values. In particular, the adoption of tough antiharassment policies - designed to protect students from insults based on race, religion, sex or sexual orientation - has raised concerns that such rules may inhibit discussion of controversial subjects on campuses. The University of Michigan has already rewritten its policy in response to a successful suit by the American Civil Liberties Union stating the University's regulations violated the First Amendment. At other institutions, some faculty claim they have stopped teaching certain courses for fear of being accused of racism or sexism. Opponents of the anti-harassment policies believe that, by adopting them, colleges are deserting one of their basic principles: to encourage students to question their beliefs by showing them different points of view. At the opening convocation last fall, Trinity President Tom Gerety announced a new racial harassment policy at the College. The policy covered a broad range of behavior including "racial or ethnic epithets, racially insensitive comments toward another person or group, anonymous hostile messages, vandalism, pranks and graffiti. " Subsequently, the Racial Harassment Committee (RHC) offaculty, students and administrators modified the new policy by adopting a narrow interpretation ofharassment that accommodates the principles of free speech

CHURCHILL

and academic freedom . The Committee sees harassment as "fighting words which have a direct tendency to cause acts of violence by the person to whom, individually, the remark is addressed. " The RHC also sought to soften the punitive aspect of its -role by instituting an informal hearing process to mediate complaints. By stressing dialogue instead of penalties, the RHC hopes to create "mutual understanding and the elimination of racism." Trinity's new policy became the object of press and public scrutiny in November, when a speaker from the Nation of Islam was accused of racially harassing a student in responding to questions after his address. The speaker was subsequently found guilty of the charge and condemned by the RHC. In announcing its decision, however, the Committee also upheld the speaker's rights to free speech and to give subsequent lectures on campus . The speaker made a second appearance at Trinity in March. Of course, campuses are not the only places where the free expression of ideas is or has been under scrutiny. Andy Rooney's recent suspension by CBS comes immediately to mind. On Capitol Hill, Sen. Jesse Helms attempted to block federal funding of "indecent or obscene" art. Another senator from another time, the late Joseph McCarthy, contributed to the restraint of political dissent in America for nearly a generation. This issue of the Reporter presents a variety of viewpoints on the free speech theme. President Gerety, Professor Ronald Kiener and freshman David Herr look at the campus environment with particular reference to the appearance of controversial, even offensive, speakers. Artistic censorship is the subject for commentary by several members of the arts faculty. And, Professor Charles Schultz contributes both commentary and powerful photography to a recollection of political repression and its victims . •

FREE SPEECH ON CAMPUS Trinity must be open to controversy and congenial to reflection. BY

"If this were Germany in the 1930s, would we allow Hitler to speak on our campus?" A student asked me this &i _ ., , question at a fall meeting at our Hillel . ._ House. It is a good question, but a terribly difficult one. For those of us who would defend freedom of expression as an absolute, the question forces an acknowledgement of the power of speech to do great harm. Justice Oliver Wendell Holmes, Jr. addressed the principle of free expression in a 1929 Supreme Court case, Schwimmer v. U.S. He argued that it is not sufficient to defend freedom of thought just "for those who agree with us." The essence of the principle is, instead, "freedom for the thought that we hate. " If we grant this principle - as most of us in academic institutions think we must - then how can any college or university put a limit on even the most demonic speaker? We must all wrestle with this conundrum as we seek to keep Trinity both open to controversy and congenial to reflection. In response to the controversy over free speech that the College faced this winter, I enunciated two principles: first, that the campus community must always remain open to ideas, even hurtful ideas; second, that it must also remain secure enough for ideas to be heard and evaluated by all of us who live and work here.

GERETY

These principles may be simply stated, but their application to specific cases can be difficult and complex. At Trinity, as at any private institution, our policies and procedures for free expression are our own. Neither the state nor the federal constitution requires us to be open to ideas we dislike. The First Amendment applies with full force only to public institutions. Legally, then, we have the power to ban whatever offends us. We choose to be an open campus, and our choice is not an arbitrary one. The liberty "to argue freely according to conscience" is the defining privilege for college life for both students and faculty. As one of the great liberal arts colleges, Trinity should never turn away from ideas without hearing them or providing an opportunity for those who disagree to rebut them. No great faculty and no great student body should try to shield itself from this challenge - and here at Trinity we have not. Taken to its logical limit, the ideal of an open campus suggests that absolutely anything goes. "Say whatever you will; we are up to it." Tempting as it is to draw that conclusion, I cannot go quite that far. Safety is a limiting principle, surely. In the often abused examplealso from Holmes - of falsely crying, "Fire," in a crowded theater, what ensues is a panicked rush for the exit doors . It involves danger as well as falsehood, which together lead to fright . Nothing weakens our Harris & Ewing Photos (inset)

freedom to study and inquire so quickly and thoroughly as intimidation. This winter, I felt it necessary to bar the general public from two student-sponsored lectures by members of the Nation oflslam because I feared that provocateurs might seek entry. Earlier, the campus was dismayed when bodyguards from the same group frisked members of the audience. I upheld the right of the speakers to speak on our campus and of our students to hear ideas that I and many others found offensive. But first and foremost I maintained a prudent regard for the safety of all concerned - students, faculty and staff, and the speaker- whatever the message. There are other limiting principles, as well. We limit the freedom to speak in a variety of ways, with a variety of implicit and explicit rules. Classroom discussion cannot proceed where students and faculty observe no rules about when to speak, for how long, or on what subjects. Justice John Paul Stevens once imagined a student in a history class who raises a hand to discuss baseball statistics. That may be funny once or twice, and even challenging, but it is also out of order - and the professor has a right to move on uninterrupted. Another example would be a student protesting a professor's point by screaming in class. Behaviors like this , even though they are expressive, obstruct the free exchange of ideas on campus, and thus may be prohibited. So long as we allow a full hearing to ideas - without restrictions on their content - we can uphold the principles of free expression without slipping into anarchy. This raises a much harder point, however. The maintenance of order in classroom discussions makes sense. So, too, do our requirements of good grammar and precise statement in papers. And when a clear threat to physical safety exists, prudence both necessitates and justifies the taking of reasonable precautions. But can we go another step to insist on civility a form of politeness, really - in discussions within our campus community? This question becomes most pointed when we acknowledge the hurt that can be done to students by insults, particularly insults couched in racial, sexual, or religious stereotypes. How should a liberal arts college view such insults? Obviously, we find them repulsive, but should we prohibit them? At Trinity, as at many schools, we have rules against what we call harassment. We have taken the position as an institution that we should enforce these rules with a disciplinary committee and disciplinary procedures. But all of us remain uncertain about the wisdom of punishing what are undoubtedly forms of speech. Part of the uncertainty is a matter of definition.

What exactly do we have in mind when we speak, for instance, of racial harassment? The "fighting words" doctrine in constitutional law is of some help. It confines our focus to direct face-toface insults calculated to make another person react violently. "Fighting words are those words that have all the force of an assault." In the 1942 case of Chaplinsky v. New Hampshire, Justice Frank Murphy wrote, "Such utterances are no essential part of any exposition of ideas." But words convey emotions as well as thoughts . Angry, ugly words bring out depth of feeling that we cannot deny without repression . Yet to speak to each other in insults is to endanger the comity, the trust, that are necessary for discussion. By poisoning the intellectual and moral climate of the campus, outbursts of hate threaten the very process of education. Many of us doubt, nonetheless, whether punishment is the answer. Our uncertainty on this point is profound . It may be that punishing such outbursts will only stifle the dialogue that can lead to understanding among people with great differences. Complaints under our racial harassment rules will have to be weighed carefully to be sure that we neither inhibit dialogue nor suppress controversial ideas. One suggestion in this area is that we punish only repeated patterns of harassment- such as hectoring phone calls - where we can be sure of the malicious intent and of the egregious nature of the offense. Our Racial Harassment Committee has put us all on notice that it will sometimes condemn such breaches without imposing any sanction. In that way, Trinity sets a high standard for discourse without resort to punishment. Our allegiance to the free exchange of ideas is linked to our commitment to the liberating value of education. In part, we resist the temptation to ban speakers or ideas because we cannot devise a fair procedure for doing so . But we also resist it because, in the act of banning, we would forego the opportunity to examine, and thus to educate, ourselves. "Homo sum, " Terence said long ago, "humani nil a me alienum puto" - "As a human being nothing human should be alien to me." If to be human means to face up to all that is human - including the hatred -then Trinity has held firm this winter as a free and humane institution. Ideas, good and bad, have been heard and debated here this year, as in many years past. Some of these ideas, we reject as hateful. To be free, though, we must continue to listen, to reflect, and to decide for ourselves . "Give me liberty," wrote Milton, "to know, to utter, and to argue freely according to conscience, above all liberties." â&#x20AC;˘ Tom Gerety is president of Trinity College.

NO ROOM FOR HATRED The campus should be closed to racist doctrine. Bv

The events that rocked Trilllty ~ College earlier this month have been portrayed as a con' ' ," flict between First Amendment protections and a concern for student safety. Both on and off campus, the tumult over race and anti-Semitism has been hailed as a positive maturation in the life of insulated Trinity College. But lest these stark, simplistic and digestible versions of events become the sole record of what happened at Trinity, I would like to draw up a different image, one far more ominous and complicated. The first difficult reality to which educators must address themselves is that some otherwise intelligent and sophisticated black students at Trinity College have fallen under the sway of the cult personality surrounding Louis Farrakhan, and have endorsed - or at least acquiesced to- his racist, anti-Semitic Nation of Islam organization. The Nation oflslam originated in 1975 as a fanatic splinter of the much larger black Muslim movement in North America. Devoted to the eccentric reverse racism of Elijah Muhammad, the Nation of Islam promotes violence and hatred, and appeals to the lowest nature in man. It was Farrakhan, the leader of the Nation of Islam, who issued a death threat against a black reporter in the 1984 presidential campaign. It was Farrakhan who called Judaism a "gutter religion" and praised Adolf Hitler as a "great man." It was Farrakhan's Nation oflslam that described the Jews as "wading through the blood of the black man." It was

Richard Milholland

a Farrakhan supporter who stated in the summer of 1988 that "Jewish doctors are infecting black babies with AIDS ," a statement Farrakhan was quick to defend . The sad and disturbing truth is that some black students at Trinity College call this extremist ideology "knowledge" and refer to this vile demagogue as a " prophet." That this is so means that Trinity College has utterly failed in educating these students. The second difficult reality is that the inexperienced and clumsy Trinity administration has coddled and even protected this kind of racial hatred, all under the shield of the First Amendment of the Constitution. While other universities across the country have banned or limit the vile ideology of racial and religious hatred, Trinity's president unswervingly and casuistically believes that, in the absence of "fighting words," all forms of speech should be protected at Trinity. Yet the impression remains widespread on campus that if Ku Klux Klan leader David Duke had come with hooded Klansmen to invade the Trinity campus, spouting white supremacist insanities and hurling anti-black racial epithets, the campus would be in an even greater uproar than it is today. And there

would be swift administative punishments meted out to the sponsoring student organization. Trinity College would not long tolerate ignorance and anti-social behavior from its faculty or staff. By coddling this hate-filled doctrine and its student promoters, Trinity has embarrassed itself and has abdicated its responsibility to educate and edify its students. In a private, liberal-arts college, whose goal is to produce civilized citizens, there can be no room for fascist, race-hatred demagoguery. Rather than hide behind a strict and legalistic interpretation of the First Amendment, thereby allowing the lowest form of intellectual garbage onto campus. Trini<y should own up to its supreme responsibility to educate and illuminate. Had German educators in the 1920s the courage to bar race-hatred at the doors of the academy, one wonders whether a generation of Nazis would have produced a Third Reich . On the college campus of the 1990s, there is nothing worth promoting or even tolerating in the rubbish that is the Nation of Islam. â&#x20AC;˘ Ronald C. Kiener is assistant professor of religion at Trinity. His article is reprinted with permission of Th e Hartford Courant.

BY DAVID HERR

Those are very powerful words. Our society, and our intellectual communities in particular, base themselves in &i those words' guarantee of free expres, ," sion of ideas. Recent events at Trinity College and in the nation as a whole point to the corrosion of the free speech ethic which is rooted in the Constitution and in the writings of great Americans such as Oliver Wendell Holmes ('Every idea is an incitement'). And worst of all, that corrosion is not governmental so much as it is societal: when tested by speech with which they disagree, an unfortunately large number of Americans reveal that their commitment to free speech is at best shallow and at worst nonexistent. Some members of the Trinity community have demonstrated their disdain for freedom of speech, and new College policies erode it to an unacceptable degree. The type of controversy sparked recently by the Nation oflslam speakers is supposedly new to Trinity. Much of the controversy revolves around whether or not to tolerate the expression of ideas whose content is deemed by most to be pernicious. Students protested the appearances of the speakers, claiming that they professed hate. One professor even wrote an article in the local paper which said that the lyrics of hate have no place on college campuses. As a Jew , I am obviously sensitive to any claim of anti-Semitism, but I will evaluate any such claim myself; and to do so I must hear the view in question . I am loath to let anyone restrict what I say and hear; the right of Don Muhammad to air his views and my right to hear his views transcend any threat from the " unacceptable" message of "hatred" alleged therein. And just as Don Muhammad has the right to speak here, so does the Grand Dragon of the Ku Klux Klan . They both have the right to speak, and I have the right to hear them both, and I feel that it is inappropriate for others to instruct me how to interpret any speech before it is actually given. It is my right to draw conclusions and ask questions where I see fit; others should not try to drum into me their own assumptions of infallibility which amount to little more than partially-informed preconceived notions. I went to Conrad Muhammad's lecture, and , contrary to the fears of protesters, I did not emerge from Mather Hall foaming at the mouth with racial and religious hatred. In fact, I think that going to the lecture

'93

and peeling back Conrad Muhammad 's layers of rhetoric was a valuable experience, because I was able afterwards to robustly debate with others about what I perceived to be the underlying themes of Conrad Muhammad's position. The level of discussion enabled by free expression of ideas is an intellectual community's greatest asset. Many argue that Trinity can restrict speech because, as a private institution, we are not bound by the Constitution of the United States . In this they are correct. Trinity's obligations to the Constitutional guarantee of free speech are moral, not legaL An intellectual community cannot exist as such without absolute immunity given to every point on the wide spectrum of ideas that exists in our diverse environment. If the rights described in the paragraph above are not honored , intellectual and moral growth suffer. Even worse, they suffer at the hands of a select few who have undertaken the task of controlling the thoughts and ideas of the many. Those few will claim to be doing the quite noble thing of eradicating bigotry, but by discriminating against ideas on the basis of their content, they establish a state of intel-

lectual bigotry whose rules threaten to ravage scholarly expression and robust discussion. I grant that the freedom to speak is not absolute. Regulations on the time, place, and manner of speech are constitutionally valid, so long as they do not amount to legislation of the speech's content. In 1942, the Supreme Court deemed that first amendment protection did not extend to speech that was libelous, obscene (exclusion of obscenity from free speech protection has created a constitutional swamp), or which used "fighting words," those words which by their very nature inflicted intentional injury and tended to incite an immediate breach of peace when directed to an individual (see Chaplinsky v . New Hampshire (1942), Houston v. Hill (1987]). Trinity's racial harassment policy was created with the "fighting words" rationale in mind. Only recently was its broad restriction on free expression scaled back to the fighting words constraint (see the Trinity Tripod, 13 February, 1990). The Sexual Harassment Policy remains as a naked exercise of discriminatory thought control. I say discriminatory because the administration has far from quelled the valid fears that this policy will be unequally applied towards the two sexes. A case prosecuted under

the Policy last fall tremendously lowered my confidence in the ability of those in charge to administer equally the policy of broad speech restrictions. Men at Trinity, it seems to me and many with whom I have spoken, could make no claim of sexual harassment that would not be laughed out of the committee room . Upstairs in my dorm, there is posted on a door a sheet listing fifty reasons why beer is better than a Trinity man. If I posted a sign on my door giving one reason why beer is better than a Trinity woman, sayonara, if someone gets offended. If a broad policy restricting speech with "sexually offensive" content exists at Trinity, it is manifestly unfair ifl can only be a defendant but not a plaintiff. If my ego were so fragile so as to be offended by the antic above described, and if a policy granting relief for such offense exists on campus, it must be made clear to me and other men that we have just as much a claim under the policy as women. Of course, when it becomes clear that the neutral terms of the policy would allow me in t~eory to seek punishment of the joke above, it also becomes clear that such a broad policy is just as ludicrous as it is ominous. I call the new policy thought control precisely because it extends far beyond punishing physically or intimidating someone in a sexual manner, which a man can do very easily to a woman by using certain words in a certain way, and into the realm of punishing expression which offends others (specifically, women). The policy even extends into the classroom, which, until now, was the last bastion of free expression of ideas. With all due respect to you who rightfully feel that you belong here, ifl stand on a crate on the Long Walk and give an orderly, epithet-free speech in which I say that the white male is the only type of person fit for Trinity, I should not be expelled from the school because the fragile egos of some individuals have been damaged. Ifl gave a speech with so flawed an argument, their duty is to rebut me, not to complain and have me silenced. I realize that there is a discipline crisis today on college campuses. Overt and physically threatening instances of racial and sexual intolerance have occurred with alarming frequency. The proper scope ofharassment policies is to deal with that discipline problem, and not with the overall problems of intolerant attitudes. By silencing intolerant ideas, we will cleanse the outer community of any evidence ofbigotry, but prejudice will rage on in individual minds, since there will exist no forum where such views can be aired and rebutted. There is also a large degree of hypocrisy surrounding the position of those who would regulate our thoughts . The inconsistency of their position lies in the fact that in reality, they oppose only that expression which offends them. If they have no problems with the offensive idea being expressed, they fling up their arms in despair if someone should suggest impairing said speech. Consider the recent Helms/Mapplethorpe funding controversy. After checking the tenets of their philosophy,

they lament, saying that artists Mapplethorpe and Serrano have every right to express themselves, and that the government should not make taste decisions about art. I agree with both of those premises. However, would there h ave been so much objection to Helms' statute, which bans federal funding to art promoting racism as well, if Mapplethorpe's photos a) depicted black women being raped and tortured by white policemen and b) were titled so as to clearly indicate that the "artist" thought that was good? No. That fact makes it clear that what constitutes "harassment" and "offense" depends entirely on the predilections ?f.a sel~ct few who feel that all expression must have their Impnmatur. However, since neither of the above mentioned premises apply correctly to the Helms situation, some admirable defenses of free expression have been left, to borrow the words of Robert Bork, "dangling irrelevantly in mid- air." If one desires to know the context in which Mr. Bork used those words, I wholeheartedly encourage a close reading ofhis new book. Helms did not propose to ban such art universally, he proposed that the taxpayers should not have to foot the bill for it. Since a good many of Helms' constituents, and I would even venture to say the American public, find M applethorpe's and Serrano's work to be disgusting, Helms

made a responsible political move (one of his few) by making his proposal. If the government is in the business of funding art, and since (theoretically, at least) the American people control the government and therefore its spending, they have every right to make su bjective judgments about what art they will fund. In other words, since this is a representative democracy, the existence of government funding of art through the N EA necessarily in volves government (i.e., majority) decisions abo ut taste. To eliminate su ch judgments, which I think we should do, we must give up federa l funding of art and phase the N EA into a private, tax exempt, non profit corporation. Such a course is the only way to maintain the integrity of the freedom of artistic expression. As a general rule, our communities must be tolerant of the expression of all ideas. Thought control has no place here in America. Its existence at Trinity Co~ege, even tho ugh it is not practiced actively by the vanous boards which have been empowered to do so, is a shame. T he extent to which thought control is becoming popular on many campuses around the country today is an intellectual and cultural nightmare. At Trinity, the obligation to the American free speech ethic is a moral one: we here are morally obligated to be tolerant of other's expression of ideas so long as the manner of expression does not violate a limited set of behavioral . restraints, and to hear those ideas, no matter how pernicious we believe them to be, with an open mind. I also feel that we are all obligated to study a little constitutional law and trace the evolution of free speech doctrine from Schenck to j ohnson (Texas v.). After all, we live in America, w here free speech is the moral law w hich our people have by and large affirmed for two c~ntu r~es. Free speech requires that people be of a certam mmd set as described above; that state of mind is m uch more important to free expression than tax dollars . Ideally, Americans' obligations to free speech should be moral before financial. O ur society should strive to maintain the forme r responsibility more than the latter. • David Herr is a freshman from Berkeley, California.

IT DID

HAPPEN HERE

The Federal Bureau of Investigation sustained a campaign across several decades to disrupt Frank Wilkinson's political activities, to curtail his right to address his fellow citizens about matters that sharply disagreed with FBI policy-in this case, the abolition of the House Committee on Un-American Activities. The Bureau amassed 132,000 pages of ftles on him, burglarized his office, and pressured college administrators not to allow him to speak on their campuses. The FBI subverted Jack O'Dell's position within the Southern Christian Leadership Conference and tried to use him to weaken the force of Dr. Martin Luther King's leadership of the civil rights movement and divert the movement itself. This, too, was done in secret. The implications are ominous: In the cases of both Wilkinson and O'Dell, state power was secretly directed against the constitutionally protected activities of citizens seeking changes in government policies, changes that, ironically, most now accept as proper. In the midst of the current, dramatic surge toward openness abroad, there's a strange silence about America 's secret political police. Firmly rooted in bureaucratic structures in federal, state and local governments, and bolstered by a self-generated and self-righteous mystique of patriotism and infallibility, their significant intrusion into the political process is, in the final analysis, beyond oversight by citizens and Congress alike. It's not that we don't know, generally, of these

things. It's that they don't enter our consciousness in a way that compels us to cry, as the East Europeans finally did: "No more secret police!" With the publication of It Did Happen Here: Recollections of Political Repression in America, we wanted to

call dramatic attention to the tragic violations of our own ideals of freedom of expression, whether by the hand of American secret police, or by congressional inquisitions, laws proscribing heretical beliefs and associations, or local sheriffs in, say, Liberty, Mississippi in 1962 or Everett, Washington in 1916. We wanted to do that by giving voice to the victims of those transgressions , to Wilkinson, O 'Dell and others who, in

He and his wife, Ruth Schultz '74, are the authors of a recent book, IT DID HAPPEN HERE: Recollections of Political Repression in America (University of California Press, Berkeley) based on a decade of inteviews and photographs of American dissenters. Selected photographs from the book, some of which appear here, were recently featured in an exhibition in the Mather Hall gallery.

paying dearly for their right to free expression, helped secure our own rights . One hundred and fifty people were interviewed. They were doctors and lawyers; professors, playwrights, and postal clerks; actors, activists, unionists, radicals-and dissenters all. Their memories stretched back to the "Red Scare" early in the century, and before. They recalled the internment of Japanese-Americans during World War II, the political hysteria of the McCarthy era, and the brutality against civil rights workers in the Sixties and Seventies. Author Margaret Randall's account was current; three months after the publication of our book, she won her five-year battle with the Immigration and Naturalization Service to escape deportation. We came to hold these men and women in great respect. Regardless of the different views or causes they advocated, each held a vision of a more just and equal America, and the commitment to act to attain it. Chuck McDew , a leader of young people in the Student Non-violent Coordinating Committee who registered voters in the South at the risk of their lives, put it this way: "I felt we were doing what we were doing because our fathers had not done it. The fact that the system had been in place for three hundred years wa-s not all that impressive to us . We had the feeling that now is the time to change it and we will." He, and others we spoke with-some of whom are represented in the pages that follow-faced an uphill battle against a government that should have prized and protected their exercise of the right to dissent.

*** SONIA KAROSS 1920. January 2. Up to 10,000 were swept up in simultaneous arrests in cities across the country. It was the Palmer Raids-the Red Scare. The massive dragnet hit meeting places, bowling alleys, cafes, and homes, catching up immigrants who were guilty of no more than holding proscribed beliefs and associations. "Alien filth," Attorney General Palmer said of those captured. "Out of the sly and crafty eyes of many of them leap cupidity, cruelty, insanity, and crime. " Sonia Kaross, born in Lithuania in 1901, was seven months pregnant when she was thrown into prison. Suffering, her pleas for help were ignored. By the end of the first night, her baby died.

"we came home--it must have been eleven or twelve-- and went to bed. One o'clock there was a banging on the doors. It woke up the whole building. There were police cars and all kinds of detectives all over the street. They came in and took all my books, all my letters, whatever they found. They took everything, every little paper they could get hold of. They threw it all into big bags like the post office has. Then they took my husband and me away."

MINORU YASUI 1942. Without having been charged with or convicted of any crime, 120,000 Japanese Americans, most of them citizens of the United States, were ordered into internment camps shortly after Pearl Harbor. Attorney Minoru Yasui was among the very few who defied the order and was subsequently imprisoned. More than 40 years later, it was discovered that the government intentionally misled the Supreme Court when it was deciding his and two similar cases that set the disturbing precedent for the internment of civilians by the military.

"Remember, the civil processes of government were continuing to operate on the West Coast, and yet a general was telling you what to do! Look, I've studied the Constitution. In my opinion, that's the way dictatorships are formed. And if I, as an American citizen-a loyal, patriotic American citizen-stood still for this, I was derogating the rights of all citizens. By God, I had to stand up and say, 'That's wrong.' "

1948. A product of the Cold War, Harry Truman's Loyalty Order marked the onset ofMcCarthyism. Under the loyalty program millions of government employees were screened to determine whether at some future date they might commit a disloyal act. Arthur Drayton was dismissed from government service after 25 years as a postal clerk. The poems and plays he wrote, and his associa tions were weighed against him, the beginning of an ordeal that disrupted the life of this gentle and sensitive man for decades. He describes his appearance before the loyalty board. "At the end, they asked if there was anything I wished to say. I remember I had this outraged feeling of having to testify in this manner in a free country. Was it because I was Black? Most people I knew who were expelled from the post office were Blacks or Jews. I thought of Socrates having to testify. I told them being called disloyal sickened my heart and weighed on my soul. Then I quoted these lines from Othello.

JOHN RANDOLPH 1956. The point of the House Un-American Activities Committee's forays into all aspects of American life was the punitive exposure of persons who otherwise could not be found guilty of violating any laws .

"The hearing was like a three-ring circus. There was press from all over the world: newspapers, television cameras, radio broadcasters. You were surrounded by this tremendous spotlight of publicity. "I went in with this attitude: You have no right to ask me what my political opinions are. It's none of your business whether Joe

LEONARD PELTIER ...... 1985. Leavenworth, Kansas. We waited for Leonard Peltier in a large visiting room. Peltier had spent almost a decade in prison, much of that in solitary confinement. He strode toward us, arm outstretched and a broad smile on his face, a marked contrast to the uniformly downcast expressions we had noticed on the faces of other prisoners. The American Indian Movement leader had been convicted of the deaths of two FBI agents in a shoot out in Oglala, South Dakota in 1975. The case was rife with government misconduct: coerced testimony and withheld evidence. It was a strange feeling to walk out of Leavenworth, to leave behind someone sentenced to two consecutive life terms-a person you believe deserves a chance to prove his innocence. Below, he describes two of the pieces of the conspiracy against him. "Wishy Draper was another witness they coerced into testifying against me. He was tied to a chair for three hours while they interrogated him. We asked him if his testimony was something an agent told him happened, not what he actually saw or heard himself. And Wish said, 'Yes, that's possible.'

"Norman Brown was the third teen-ager who testified against me.

'Q. When you testified before the grand jury that you saw Leonard and Bob and Dino down by the agent's car, where did you get that information?

A. FBI.

Q. Did you ever see that on June 26, 1975? A. No.'"

~ SCOTT CAMIL 1972. As the convention to renominate Richard Nixon neared, the Vietnam Veterans Against the War became targets of undercover operations by local, state, and federal agencies . It was difficult to imagine anything more embarrassing to the President than demonstrations against the war by its combat veterans. Agents infiltrated "the VV A W and became leaders. They spent a fortune and gathered great amounts of information about the personal and political lives of the veterans. At the center of this intensive surveillance was VVA W leader, Scott Camil, a recipient of nine medals for his service in Vietnam. "Before, I was so open that anybody could come to my house. And they just filled the place up with cops."

someone who took great risks in his art is a major problem. It 's an indirect form of censorship," said Arthur Feinsod, a director and assistant professor of theater and dance at Trinity. Feinsod is one who would prefer more public funding of the arts not less. "All the artists I know have been just incensed by the neglect of the arts by the government," Feinsod said. " In the United States, we are prisoners of the box office. You can do Merchant of Venice on Broadway but you better have Dustin Hoffman ... That ultimately leads to a climate that does not allow for free ideas and really strong art." "There has always been an extreme reaction to art that engages political and social issues," FitzGerald said. "But there have been trends throughout the history of art, whichever period you look at, in _ _ _ _ _ _ 1574 - - - - - -

which art has more directly or indirectly engaged those ideas." In the early 1960s, for example, Andy Warhol was commissioned to decorate the exterior wall of the N ew York State Pavilion at the World's Fair. He chose America 's '10 Most Wanted Men' as his subject. "This was a very different view of the United States from that officials wished to present to the international audience," FitzGerald said. "As you might imagine, Warhol's work was rejected but not until it was already up on the building.

Librettos for operas both by Mozart in 18th century Vienna and by Verdi in 19th century Italy were subject to prior approval by courtappointed censors. " Today, at least in our country, we don't have to deal with overt censorship.for political reasons. The issue is more one of

obscenity as we see today with Congressional restrictions for the National Endowment for the Arts, " Platoff said. In turn-of-the-century America, one dancer's work was considered unacceptable by conventional social mores. "Isadora Duncan is now recognized as the mother of modern dance. She was not accepted in America and went through great difficulty and disparagement here. She travelled to Europe and to Russia to find more nurturing places for

her art, " said Judy Dworin, a choreographer and associate professor of theater and dance at Trinity. "We look back at Isadora as a brilliant pioneer of the art form. What if her art, because it was viewed as risque beyond the limits of propriety and tradition, had been systematically repressed? We can' t even begin to measure what we would have lost," Dworin said . Powerful individuals can also exert control over artists and the places where their work is shown. About 20 years ago, FitzGerald recalled , the Guggenheim, a private museum in N ew York, agreed to give an exhibition to Hans Haacke. Haacke created an exhibition based on the real estate holdings of certain individuals in N ew York and documented their ownership of rundown buildings in the city. "It was enough to cause the Guggenheim to kill the show and it created a huge controversy. It made the show much more famous than it would have been without it," FitzGerald said. When the Guggenheim's director refused to allow the exhibition, the chief curator resigned . "That's sup========1859

Artistic Freedom at Trinity

Arthur Feinsod, assistant professor of theater and dance, chose to exercise his artistic freedom by setting his version of Everyman, the classic morality play, right on the Trinity campus. In Feinsod's satire, undergraduates are hell-bent on having a good time while ignoring the pleas of one socially conscious student who urges them to cancel Spring Weekend and use the $50,000 spent on beer and bands to feed the poor. Three men in graduation robes (a cross between faculty, administrators and trustees) are presented as a closed, goodold-boys brotherhood who snub "Professor Probably-NotBright-Enough-for-Tenure." They suggest that flooding Austin Arts Center to make a hockey rink would vastly improve the College; that calling Trinity a liberal arts college makes the institution sound flaky; and that perhaps the College would have a more solid reputation if it were called a liberal hockeys college. Before students performed the satire at Austin Arts Center last December, Feinsod expressed some misgivings about how audiences might react. Yet he extended personal invitations to a number of administrators and faculty. Those who spoke to him after the performances took it well, he said. "In staging Everyman, I never felt hateful toward Trinity College. The whole thrust was to poke fun an d expose limitations and problems - with a real affection for the place."

posedly a case of the institution censoring itself, " FitzGerald said. " But I don't think there's a doubt in anyone's mind that the decision for that censorship didn't come simply from the director of the institution, but rather from his trustees, from his funders." "The arts are about change and institutions in society promote stability - a strong sense of wanting to remain the same," Dworin said. " Artists are really the voices of

The line about turning Austin Arts Center into a hockey rink " is a good example of satire and free speech," he said. " The satirists of the early 18th century were a great inspiration for me when I was working on Everyman . I was captured b y their optimism and hope for change. They believed that good satire had the possibility of effecting change. It was seen as a positive act - serving the government by criticizing the government. " Feinsod was further inspired by Aristophanes' satires performed in ancient times. An Aristophanic satire would center on and play out the consequences of a " preposterous idea"- such as making Trinity a liberal hockeys college. Satires were performed at Greek theater festivals held in the winter when Athens' harbor was frozen and outsiders could not attend. "The Greeks then could laugh at themselves and cr iticize

their own government as well as other powerful leaders in the society. It was risky at times but it was built into the culture to satirize those in power. "That's how I felt about Everyman. It was really designed for Trinity's trustees, faculty, students and parents. I wouldn't want to do this at Williams or at Wesleyan; it's not for their eyes. " The issue I'm addressing is: Trinity College needs better facilities and more support for the arts. It' s a miracle that we have such exciting departments in theater and dance, music and the visual arts, considering the tiny spaces artists hav e to work in," he said. "When a visual artist doesn't have enough room to create a large sculpture and theater rehearsals have to gypsy from room to room, it's disgraceful. "The government needs to create a climate in which the artists can be true to the voice within themselves and the audience can begin to stretch. The College needs to do that as well. "In a part of India when there's a famine, the artists are fed first. The artists are the keepers, the sustainers and holders of culture. "The artistic work of our students prepares them to help sustain our culture. Therefore, we need to distinguish priorities between what is necessary and what is nice. Adequate arts facilities and strong support for our artistic activities are necessary. A hockey rink would be nice. That' s one of the issues the Everyman production was trying to address."

change. To suppress them is to suppress what's healthiest about our culture." Sometimes, artists themselves are censors. "Self-censorship by artists is also a problem when you're censoring your ideas - when you think 'that's too pornographic,' 'that's too violent,' 'that's too unpopular. I've got to change this part around so it will sell.' Your own vision is being railroaded away from itself, away

from your original intent," Feinsod said. He and other artists wish the United States would emulate the European model where governments fund artists to the extent that they are freed from having to cater to public tastes. " We want to create a climate here in which artists can be true to the integrity of their own vision, without having to tamper with their own creativity and without redirecting it to what will sell," he said. " The theater is one of the last strongholds of imaginative participation," said Feinsod, w ho is w riting a book titled The Simple Stage . Proponents of the 'simple stage' believe that elaborate sets or props aren't necessary because audiences should stretch their imaginations. " Because of the explosion of TV and film, it becomes more vital for theater and other art forms like poetry and dance to stay alive and thriving. The whole idea of popular culture is to cater to the audien\=e. The audience can sit back in a passive state; the mind is vegetating. We need to support the arts that challenge the mind and demand imaginative participation," Feinsod said. " The arts are crucial for the growth of our culture," Dworin said. " Many times artists who are at the most extreme place within their art form are informing us about currents in our society that are not immediately apparent, but

extremely important ... It's very dangerous when a culture tries to suppress artists' voices and begins to define the conventions of the form in narrow terms and to limit the scope of possibility ." â&#x20AC;˘ M artha Davidson is assistant director of public relations at Trinity and a staff writer for the Reporter.

FIVE TALES FOR THE THEATRE: Carlo Gozzi Edited and Translated by Albert Bermel and Ted Emery '79 T he University of Chicago Press, 1989; $14.95, paper, and $49.95, cloth The theatrical world of Count Gozzi (1720-1806) was a magical one, in which people, statues and animals change places through wonderful transformations. This book brings together for the first time modern English translations of five of the Count's most famous plays: The Raven, The King Stag, Tirandot, The Serpent Woman , and The Green Bird, each annotated and introduced by the author's preface. In the introduction to the book Ted Emery places Gozzi in his social and historical context, examining his world view in both the content and the form of his tales.

Bak, Gyorgy Bonis and James Ross Sweeney '62 Charles Schlacks, Jr. , Publisher (Bakersfield, Calif.), 1989, 178 pages The first book- Popes, T eachers, and Canon Law in the Middle Ages - is a collection of essays exploring aspects of the interaction between medieval religious and political thought and conflicts in the body politic, church-related and secular, ofWestern Christendom. The essay authors' focus on a small number of themes within a specific chronological framework, from ca. 1100 to ca. 1450, gives the book coherence. The 17 essays are divided into four categories. In Part I the medieval papacy is depicted through essays dealing with aspects of papal policy from the 12th through the 14th centuries. Next, the interconnections oflearning, philosophical speculation, and ecclesiastical thought are explored.

HI, HO, COME TO THE FAIR Tales of the New York World's Fair of 1964-1965 Bruce Nicholson '48 Pelagian Press (Huntington Beach, Calif.), 1989, 218 pages, $13.95 soft cover This anniversary book of the New York World's Fair of1964-1 965 recounts tales of how the Fair was put together and about the people - the politicians, the dignitaries, the opportunists and the connivers. Nicholson, who worked for fair organizer Robert Moses, writes of assassinations, poisonings, airplane crashes, captures by Indians in Paraguay's wild country. Though the events sound more like a James Bond novel than a Fair, in fact they truly happened . The six men whose assignment was to entice foreign governments to participate in the Fair were often stymied by events such as these, and also by the often irascible and undiplomatic public utterances of some of the Fair's top executives. The book explores one process in the making of an international exposition. Today little remains of the extravaganza which may be the last major exposition to be held in the U.S. Still standing are the Unisphere, that armatured symbol of the Fair, and New York City Building, the New York State Pavilion, the Hall of Science and a few service buildings, reflecting pools and statues. The Fair's old Singer Bowl today holds world tennis championship matches, and across the way is New York's ranking arena, Shea Stadium.

Ronald Spencer's review of "The Sixties" in the last issue of The Trinity Reporter is descriptively accurate and displays his usual historical acumen. His assessment, however, is too onesided. One paragraph summarizes the decade's achievements, while five decry its excesses. Certainly, there were excesses. Yes, it is easy to romanticize the period. Of course, we must not forget the pain . But, let us also remember that the '60s were very creative years. There prevailed an atmosphere of openness. Much of the past's accepted wisdom was challenged in race relations, in the role of institutions, in the conduct of foreign policy as well as in social mores and cultural customs. There was a widespread yearning and searching for a better way of doing things . I much prefer the excitement and potential for new possibilities of those years to today's dull delusions. In the '80s we abandoned the quest for solutions to some of our most intractable social problems in favor of a celebration of private gain, sometimes through illegal and often unethical means. Yet the events of '89 in other parts of the world should serve as a beacon to us in the U.S . showing us that we can build a more just and humane society at home. I, for one, hope that the '90s are more akin to the '60s than the '80s. Ivan A. Backer Director Southside Institutions Neighborhood Alliance (SINA)

SPORTS Men's Basketball (14-8) After losing four of the top seven players from last season's championship squad, Coach Stan Ogrodnik expected to have trouble early with his young team, and that's exactly what he got. The Bantams dropped three of four in December, and things were going so poorly that a game against Bridgewater State was cancelled because a motor in Oosting Gymnasium's heating system burned out. But Ogrodnik and his troops turned things around in late season, winning five in a row and 10 of 12 heading into the E .C .A.C. tournament, which Trinity had won four of the last six seasons. Trinity went in as the #5 seed, but lost by a 76-65 margin in a rematch against a bigger Clark squad, a team the Bants had beaten earlier in the year. The center ofTrinity's late-season drive was senior co-captain Michael Stubbs (Hartford, Conn.), who was nothing short of sensational over the last month. He led the team in scoring (21.1), rebounding (18.2) and blocked shots (60), and was the focus of Trinity's offense and defense down the stretch. He led the NCAA (all divisions) in rebounding for virtually the entire season, and should capture the national rebounding crown. After the sluggish start, Trinity started the second semester with comfortable wins over Vassar and Eastern Nazarene, and then opened its defense of the Liberty Bank Classic title with a dramatic 72-66 comeback win over Wesleyan. Even though the Bantams fell to Eastern Connecticut in the fmals, Stubbs was named tournament M .V .P. ,

SENIOR CENTER Michael Stubbs became the first player in Trinity history to surpass 1,000 points and 1,000 rebounds, and led the nation in rebounding with an amazing 18.1 average.

'til~ ~-------~~

-----

the first time the award has gone to a player not on the winning team. The Bantams then lost at W esleyan before going on a four-game tear which included an overtime win at Connecticut College and a 95-88 thriller over Clark, perhaps their best performance of the season. Trinity staggered again with losses to Bates and Williams, but rebounded to win its last five contests of the season, including a crucial 81-75 win at Amherst and payback wins over Coast Guard and Wesleyan. In one incredible week, Stubbs led Trinity to wins over Coast Guard, Amherst and Wheaton, as he averaged 28.7 points and 22.3 rebounds. He was named E.C.A.C. Player of the Week, as well as Small College Player of the Week by Sports Illustrated. He also became the first player in Trinity history to surpass both 1,000 points and 1,000 rebounds for a career, and is Trinity's all time leader in blocked shots. Not that Stubbs doesn't have any help. Junior co-captain Joe Reilly (Glastonbury, Conn.) came on down the stretch, and ran the offense extremely well. He contributed on the scoreboard, averaging 16.1 points and 3. 9 assists. Sophomore Matt Vaughn (Manchester, Conn.) made the transition from shooting guard to forward, and helped the Bantams with 9.9 points, 4.5 rebounds and 3.5 assists per game. Junior Chris Hinchey (Norwich, Conn.) and sophomore Mike Allen (Windham, Conn.) shared duties at the other guard spot, and did an effective job. Up front, freshman Mark O'Day (Wilton, Conn.) emerged as a solid rebounder and a complement to Stubbs, and started 19 of 21 games. Sophomores Mark Horncastle (Scarsdale, N .Y.) and Matt Perno (Bristol, Conn.) and freshman Pieter VanderHeide provided additional depth in the frontcourt , and helped Stubbs on the boards during the stretch run.

FRESHMAN POINT GUARD Kathy Moynagh was one of several young players who saw extensive action for Coach Maureen Pine this season.

Women's Basketball

(9-13) After last year's first-ever trip to the E. C. A. C. tournament, hopes were high for Coach Maureen Pine's basketball team this season. A solid core of veterans was returning, and with the addition of several talented freshmen , the prospects of another trip to the tournament seemed good. The Lady Bantams started the year off with a bang, sweeping through the Babson Invitational with solid wins over Union and Babson, and junior forward Kirsten Kolstad (Northford, Conn.) was named tournament M .V.P. for her 44-point, 18-rebound performance. The season's first home game was no less a success, as Trinity trounced Mt. Holyoke, 90-45. The highlight was when freshman Maureen Strickland (East Hampton, Conn.)

dropped a 35-footer at the buzzer to eclipse the old team record of 89 points. But things went sour for the Lady Bantams after that. Disappointing losses to Wheaton and Smith ended the first semester, and a tough 62-55 loss at W.P.I. opened the 1990 portion of the season. The Lady Bantams got back on track with a 39point win at Pine Manor, but suffered their worst loss of the year, as Kolstad was injured early in the game and lost for the season. Trinity, led by co-captains Karyn Farquhar (Gales Ferry, Conn.) and Kathy Ennis (Farmington, Conn.) rallied to win two of the next four to get to 6-5. But a tough schedule brought a six-game losing streak, ending any playoffhopes. The team could have packed it in, but rallied again in their last two home games. An easy 70-45 win over Manhattanville set the stage for the final home game for Farquhar, Ennis and Debbie Glew (Medfield, Mass.) whose inspired defensive play earned her a berth in the starting lineup during the second half of the season. The Lady Bantams played their best game of the season against Tufts, who came to Oosting with a 14-3 record. A Trinity win would have been a huge upset, but the Lady Bants did better than that - they thoroughly dominated the Lady Jumbos with a smothering fullcourt defense and a precisely-run offense for a splendid 72-52 win. Trinity was led throughout the season by Farquhar, who averaged 14.6 points and became just the second player in school history to surpass 1, 000 career points. Although the loss of Kolstad hurt immensely, it gave some of the younger players a chance to play and gain experience. Sophomore Amy Chiodo (Portland, Ore.) showed that she can be a force in the paint, averaging 12.7 points and 8.5 rebounds and added a school-record 35 blocked shots. Strickland and freshmen Kathy Moynagh (Sturbridge, Mass.), Jodi Falcigno (New Haven, Conn.) and Lisa O'Connell

(Arlington, Mass.) comprised the backcourt along with Ennis, who registered a team-high 57 steals for the season. Freshman Jackie Kupa (Andover, Mass.) also proved her worth, averaging 5.3 points and 8.1 rebounds as a forward and center.

Hockey (17-6) After falling to Iona in the E. C. A . C. South Championship game last season, the Bantams set out to reclaim the top spot in the South this season, with an eye to their fourth E.C.A.C. title in the past five years. At the conclusion of the regular season that prospect looked good , as the team earned the #1 seed in the South ahead of lona and Connecticut College. The Bantams started the year in dramatic style, storming back from a 4-1 deficit on the strength of two goals apiece from tri-captains Michael Murphy (Sudbury, Mass.) and Todd duBoef(Las Vegas, Nev.) to shock Hamilton in Clinton, N .Y. They carried the momentum from that win to reel off three more victories heading into the McCabe Tournament, played this year at Kingswood-Oxford, Trinity's home ice surface. The Bantams reached the final with a resounding 8-2 victory over Wesleyan, and then faced Amherst in the Championship game in what would be one of the most dramatic games in Trinity history. The teams battled to a 5-5 tie at the end of regulation, and then played six overtime periods before Murphy finally ended the drama around midnight with his third goal of the game. Tricaptain Steve Gorman (Suffield, Conn.) was heroic between the pipes, fending off several great opportunities for the Lord Jeffs. The Bantams finally lost a game, a tough 3-2 decision at Williams, and then beat Suffolk to end a great first semester at 7-1. The first game of 1990 was a rematch of last year's South fina:l against Iona in Rye, N .Y . The Bantams fell behind 3-1 , but rallied to

score in the last five minutes to halve the margin, and then hit the post and missed another great chance in the closing minutes. The Bants then reeled off four straight wins , including a heart-stopping 5-4 win at Amherst, with Murphy again providing the heroics, scoring the winning goal with one second left in the second period. Two losses to Division II A .I.C. and UConn followed, but the Bantams got back on the winning track with three consecutive E .C.A.C. south wins , including a key 8-3 pounding of Iona on home ice. But, the team then dropped two of its next three to Assumption and Roger Williams, hurting its playoff standing. A key game at Connecticut College loomed ahead, with a first round bye and home ice throughout the playoffs at stake. Conn took leads of 1-0 and 2-1 before the Bantams stormed back in the third period to claim a 3-2 victory, as sophomore Tom Scull (Hanover, N .H .) netted the game-winner in the closing minutes. Sophomore goalie Jeff Tuck (Needham, Mass .) rose to the challenge in his first game in over two months, stopping a breakaway and numerous chances for the Camels. He backed up his performance with a 7-2 win over Tufts, and was named North-South goalie of the week, as the Bantams primed themselves for the playoffs with a convincing victory. The line of Murphy, duBoef and freshman Eric McGranahan (Wilbraham, Mass.) has been extremely productive for the Bantams all year , as has the second line of Bill Macartney (Clinton, N .Y.) , Larry Trinceri (Southampton, Mass.) and Jay Monahan (Belmont, Mass.). Sophomore Scott Leddy (Hamden, Conn.) has anchored the defense and provided offensive punch, with strong play from Steve Burgess (W. Hartford, Conn.). Eric Laakso (Newburyport, Mass.), John Gregory (Locust Valley, N .Y.) , John Snecinski (Middlefield, Conn.), Tom Presz (Wilbraham, Mass.) and Bill Grube (Westwood, Mass.).

Men's Squash (9-7) Coach Richard Danforth's young team struggled mightily early in the

season, but came on strong in the second half of the year, winning six of its last seven matches and claiming the #8 spot in the nation. Things started slowly for the Bantams, and losses to Ivy Leaguepowers Princeton, Cornell, Harvard, Dartmouth, Yale and Penn, sandwiched around wins over M .I.T. , Tufts and Bowdoin left the team with a 3-6 record . But the team stormed through the Wesleyan round-robin, taking matches from the Cardinals (9-0) , Rochester (8-1) and Brown (9-0). The team then won three of its last four, including dramatic 5-4 wins over Williams and Navy, avenging losses from the previous year. At the USSRA Team Championships in Philadelphia, the Bantams were to compete in the first flight, but a late entry by Western Ontario bumped them into the " B" group. Trinity took it out on their opponents, cruising through the tournament to claim first place in the division and the #8 spot in the country. Most remarkable was the team's youth - six of the top nine players were freshmen . Leading the diaper dandies was Justin McCarthy (Brooklyn, N.Y.), who played at #1 the entire season. Junior Ricky Campbell (Haverford, Pa .), senior captain Dave Confair (Williamsport, Pa.) and senior Malcolm Miller (Greeenwich, Conn.) were in the minority as upperclassmen, with freshmen Mark Lewis (Barrington, R.I.), Cameron Hopkins (Providence, R.I.), Chris Hart (Rosemont, Pa.), Chris O'Brien (Southboro, Mass.) and Blair Keller (Haverford, Pa .) rounding out the team.

Women's Squash (9-3) The women 's squash team used a blend of youth and experience to achieve another outstanding season, finishing fourth in the nation behind Harvard, Princeton and Yale, the only teams to beat the Lady Bantams all year. Those three losses left the team at

3-3, with a crucial match against Franklin & Marshall to follow . These teams have been virtually even in recent years, and split two matches last season. Trinity played at home this year, and eked out a thrilling 5-4 win. Junior Courtney Geelan (Suffern, N .Y .) and freshman Elizabeth DelDuca (Wilmington, Del.) claimed four-game victories, while Susie Dyson (Atlanta, Ga.), co-captain Phoebe Sylvester (Hinsdale, Ill .) and Sibyl Price (Richmond, Va.) wo~ in five games. Wins over Wesleyan and Middlebury had the team primed for the Howe Cup, where the team placed fifth, dropping a match to nemesis Franklin & Marshall. Wins over Williams and Amherst left just a duel with Brown, who would fight Trinity for the #4 spot in the nation. Trinity again came through with a 5-4 win, as Geelan, co-captain Robin Silver (Newton, Mass.), DelDuca, Dyson and Amy Chick (Dedham, Mass.) earned wins . Freshman Sarah Hammond (Gladwyne, Pa.) played at #1 all season, and had a solid year against the best players in the nation. Silver, Sylvester, Geelan and Price provided veteran leadership, while freshmen Hammond, DelDuca, Dyson, Chick and Minna Kim (Charlestown, W. V~.) injected the team with life and helped vault the Lady Bantams back among the top teams in the nation.

Men's Swimtrling (5-5) After going 2-4 to start the season, Coach Chet McPhee's team came on strong, winning three of its last four matches and placing 11th at the New England Championships, breaking several school records in the process. The team proved its mettle at W.P.I. in a tightly contested meet. Wins by Ben Carvalho (1,000-free), Ren Getzendanner (100-free, 200free), Jon Nusbaum (60-free), Robert Lenois (160-IM, 200-breast), Steve Tobey (200-back), and An-

SENIOR RIGHT WING Bill Macartney cruises around a poke check. Macartney helped the Bantams reach the E.C.A.C. South Championship game for the sixth consecutive year.

thony Contessa (500-free) gave Trinity a narrow 48-47 win. After a loss to Wesleyan, the team reeled off victories over Brandeis, Fairfield and Connecticut College to get over the . 500 mark. At the New Englands, Trinity's eight swimmers put on a strong show, especially freshman Luke McCarthy (Fairfield, Conn.), who set school records in four events: the 200-IM (2:02.33) , 100-breast (1:00.67), 1,000-free (10:17.00) and 1,650-free (17:06.61). His time in the 1,000-free shattered the old Trinity record held by Jim Laughline '87 by over 23 seconds. McCarthy's time in the 100-breast was just four tenths of a second over the qualifying time for the nationals. The 200-freestyle relay team of David Lynch (North Haven, Conn.) , Captain Contessa (Montclair, N.J.), Nusbaum (Columbus, Ohio) and Frank Monaco (E. Williston, N.Y.) set a new school standard in the event, with a time of 1:31.07.

Women's Swimming

(1-9) The women's team suffered through a tough year, as McPhee's extremely youthful squad learned

the rigors of collegiate swimming. The squad never lost its enthusiasm, however, and made good contests out of most of the meets. The highlight came at W .P.I., as the Lady Bantams gained their lone victory of the season. The 400-medley relay team of Christine Hewitt (Potomac, Md.), Ann Reutter (Woodbury, N.J.) , Captain Karen Leonard (Winsted, Conn.) and Jamie Murphy (Great Neck, N .Y.) got things started with a victory good for a 7-0 lead. Lynn Kim Lester (Hinsdale, Ill.) then extended the lead with a victory in the 1,000-free, and Murphy maintained the margin with a win in the 60-free. Wins by Leonard (100-free), Hewitt (100back) Renee Mailloux (Bristol, Conn.) in the 500-free and the 400free relay team of Margaret Freeman (New York, N .Y.), CameronJohnstone (Buffalo, N .Y.), Joann Zamparo (Hamden, Conn.) and Anne Lyons (Newton Court, Mass.) cemented the victory. At the New England Championships, Leonard qualified for the finals in the 50-free and 50-fly, earning All New England status in those events. The 400-medley relay team of Hewitt, Mailloux, Murphy and Leonard also made the fmals, as did the 800-freestyle relay team of

Mailloux, Barbara Osequera (Mexico City, Mex.), Nicole Curinga (Montrose, N.Y.) and Hewitt.

Wrestling (2-10) The wrestling team started the season full of promise, after the suecess of last season and a large turnout during tryouts. But injuries and second thoughts eroded the team, and several winnable matches were lost due to forfeits . The season started on an up note, with a 54-0 thrashing ofWentworth. Things turned around quickly, though, as the Bantams dropped a 27-21 decision at home to Haverford, a team they had defeated the year before. T he m atch was tight, as 134-pounder Colin Kisor (Evanston, Ill.) pinned his opponent and Andre Buffonge (Hyde Park, Mass.) took a forfeit. With the Bantams trailing 18-12, Coach Sebby Amato sent Captain Paul Harney out for the 167-pound match. Harney, who has had a tough history with injuries, pinched a nerve in his neck. He was forced to forfei t the match and was lost for the season. A gritty 4-3 win by freshman Adam Dunn (Kingston, N.Y.) was not enough to overcome the deficit.

It was with a heavy heart that I attended the funeral service at Congregation Beth Israel for MEL TITLE (see In M emory) . He was widely-known for his gifts to many organizations. At one time he said, "My mother was deeply involved in philanthropies and it rubbed off on me." In 1968 he was awarded an honorary degree at Trinity. Just two weeks before his death, Mel reported the birth of two great-grandsons - Nathan S. Harris of Kansas City where Mel's granddaughter, Diane Title Harris, lives; and Russell Hartman Title of Cambridge, Mass. where his grandson, David G. Title, resides. We extend our sympathy to all of Mel's family . The Class has always been a supporter of the Alumni Fund which has made its usual increase in 1989 and is off and running again this year. I'm hopeful we will show I 00 percent participation. The current recipient of the Class of 1918 Memorial Scholarship is Beth Lincoln '90 of Bristol, Conn.

JIM DOLAN , BOB HARTT, BOB SINNOTT, JOHN JOHNSON , BILL BRILL, JOE FOLEY, STAN MILLER- remember them? They were our classmates who made the Trinity football team in our day; only recently did I talk (prior to this writing of Jan. 18, 1990) with the sole survivor, Stan Miller, over the phone. Stan observed his 90th birthday on Oct. 25, 1989. He informed me he was feeling great except for an occasional flare-up of his knees due to old football i(\juries incurred while playing for dear old Alma Mater. However, he is still navigating without a cane which is more than YOUR SECRETARY can say! More power to you, Stan. You fel-

lows were, indeed, courageous and heroic; you played both offensive and defensive football as there was no platoon system those days and even if there were it wouldn't have helped as the College just about fielded a team of 11 players. I don't recall winning seasons, but as CONNIE GESNER once remarked, "We were building character!" Stan and spouse Alice spent a week in Puerto Rico last April, three weeks in June on the Rhine River and then a week in Amsterdam. Since this was their second annual trip to the Rhine region, I wonder if Stan e(\joys the beautiful scenery or the elegant wineries on the River - maybe both. Class Agent: Sereno B. Gammell

So now it is time to get copy in for the spring issue of the Reporter. Spring? Gosh, that means the end of the fall and early winter football games that mean so much to some of us confined to our living quarters. Thanks to Trinity's 89.3 FM and the networks, the weekends seemed to pass so quickly. We can be well pleased with the 7-1 record of our football squad last fall, not to forget that the one loss to Williams occurred in the last few seconds of the game and that Wesleyan was again soundly defeated. In retrospect, one of the highlights of the season for me, personally, was when an announcer prior

to the Notre Dame game informed us that the Michigan front four defensive linemen averaged 294 pounds. My roommate looked at me with a quizzical expression as if to say, "What? These are college kids?" ROGER HARTT, our ever alert Class Agent, released a good letter to classmates telling us of his visits to the campus for the inauguration of our new president, Tom Gerety. He made a most favorable impression not only on Roger, who knew the family from Fair-

field activities, but also on students and faculty who attended. Roger also pointed out that while 1927 reached 98 percent of the Class goal, its percentile participation was much lower. Taking into consideration the few members we now have in the Class, the failure of just one of us to submit his contribution prior to the June closing drastically affects our percentile. So let's make Roger happy with 100 percent participation this year. The recently received Annual Report of the President reflects the accomplishments achieved by President English during the past year, which is but a fitting crown for his full tenure in office. He has done an outstanding job and certainly we wish him the very best in the years to come. Our newlyinstalled president foresees a continuation of more good things for the College and we can but be happy about the prospects. Overall we can only feel that the Trinity of today is a pretty far cry from the Trinity of the fall of 1923 when we, as the entering freshman class, signed the Matriculation Book.

After JACK WARDLAW's marriage (see Weddings) he and his wife were leaving immediately for Paris where they were to be met by a friend who has lived in the city for 40 years. Jack had been requested to play his tenor banjo for a Thanksgiving party to be given for American friends living in Paris. Jack writes that his wife has completed a revision of his second book, Inside Secrets of SeUing F'ind a Need and F'iU It, which is soon to be published. She is now working on his biography. Jack notes that most of his life insurance business is being handled by his son, JOHN '63. Grandson Alex spent tl1e fall semester studying with other Trinity students in England. He is a member of the Class of 1991. Class Agent: Mrs. Be lle B. Cutle r

Dorothy and JOHN BAKER went on a trip to Russia and Sweden this past fall and were entertained by friends there. Ten days after returning, on Sept. 30, they celebrated their 50th wedding anniversary. Congratulations! The festivities were hosted by their three sons, John, Donald and Robert, and their families. Forty-four persons attended from six different states. We must have others in our class who have been married 50 years or more. Let me hear from you and it will be suitably recorded. Your classmates are interested. Ruth and I attended a Trinity function held at the New York Botanical Gardens this fall and were more than pleased to visit with Joan and HOFF BENJAMIN and found them well and in good spirits. Saw JOHN KELLY and ANDY ONDERDONK at Homecoming. Andy has recovered from a recent illness and is doing great. Phyllis Mason also was there dressed in her Trinity regalia. She plans to spend the winter in Florida and we hope to see her there. Class Agent: John E. Kelly

William H. Walke r 97 West Broad St. REUNION Hopewell, N.J . 08525 About Christmas time we had a long newsy letter from BILL ANGUS. At Easter time he had a couple of gallstones begin to talk to him. Finally, in July he was hospitalized for surgery, first for a triple by-pass and then a couple of days later for the installation of a pacemaker. He is now fully recovered and looking forward to our 55th in June. SIS and Vera SAMPERS visited Bill and Amy Angus. Bill says Sis looks good and feels great. ART WARD reflects on his good health and ef\ioyment of his retirement in the 50th state. It is good to have those lines of communication back in operation. Our deep sympathy goes out to JACK and Dorothy MAHER whose daughter, Connie, died in October in California Jack had a letter from TOM SISBOWER. He and Dorothy are spending much of their time traveling, i.e., to California to see their grandchildren and to Nova Scotia to see Dorothy's parents. JACK AMPORT has had another hip transplant (no. 5). We ought to form an Iron Hip Club of Thirty Fivers with Jack as president. Other members we know of are Sis Sampers, MlMl and Peg MARQUET and YOURS TRULY. I think

I might be the senior member of the firm with 14 plus years on mine. ERIC S. PURDON, distinguished member of our class, died in early December (see In Memory). I have sent the condolences of the Class of '35 to Mary and their children. Personally, I will miss his cheerful and newsy letters. (Editor's note: A telephone caU from BILL WALKER reports that "FRANK J. EJGENBAUER was found dead at his home on Dec. 4. The coroner estimates that the day of death was Dec. 1, from a massive coronary. Funeral services were hetd on Dec. 7 in Metuchen, N.J. Further details wiU be coming. ") BERT (not Tom) BASKERVILLE reports on the WILLIAM HENRY WARNER Memorial Scholarship Fund. As of June 30, 1989 its book value was $12,891.35 and the '88-'89 income was $1425.79. The current recipient is Maria Blackburn '91, of Brighton, Mass. Your contributions to this Fund especially in our 55th year will be greatly appreciated. The sun followers of '35 can now be found in Florida and include ART and Mary HAZENBUSH, the Bert Baskerviiles, Sis and Vera Sampers, TOM and Fran HAGARTY and, of course, those almost natives, Mimi and Peg Marquet. Start thinking now about our Double Nickel Reunion scheduled for J une 1417. Hope to see you all there! Class Age nt: Thomas J . Hagarty, Esq.

DR. GENE and Marge D'ANGELO, FRANK and Betty FERRUCCI, HARRY and Sabrina SANDERS, and MIKE and Corrine SCENT! attended the Homecoming Weekend, Nov. 11. We had a great buffet luncheon and then saw Trinity overwhelm the Wesleyan football team, 37-7. Received word from COL. JOE GRECO that his son, Lt. Col. Barry, received the National Intelligence Certificate of Distinction presented by Judge William H. Webster, director, Central Intelligence Agency, in August. Barry has retired from the Air Force effective last October. Joe is into oil paintings and works in the Air Academy Hospital Pharmacy as a Red Cross volunteer. To further occupy his time, he has taken up golf and has joined the many legions of hackers. ALLEN R. DOTY writes, "Had my 80th birthday in April. Went fishing with my sons, Newell and Paul. Caught snook, grouper, snapper. Great day. Ruth and I had our 50th wedding anniversary spent at the Cloisters in Sea Island, Ga. Grand event. The 'kids' gave us a great celebration at Thanksgiving time in Rochester, N.Y. Planning on having many more. Spend most of my time on the golf course playing at least three times a week. Go on golf tournaments with two senior groups at least once a month."

Received a surprise Christmas card from HARRY DAVIS, somewhat late, because Dr. Harry was, himself, in the hospital. Surprise, because Harry sent me a card with a note last year and I still have not responded. He says about the hospital stay that he is ok. Well, I had a hospital stay for a hernia last year and I can only say that I hope Harry's experience was as easy as mine proved to be. If anyone feels so inclined, the address is 8750 Sandalwood Dr., Scottsdale, Ariz. 85253. I was glad to note in the winter Reporter, in the section on books by Trinity authors, a piece about DOLPH HOEHLING. I remember reporting a while ago about our most prolific author - I believe - whose propensity was for naval subjects, that he was working on a book about Civil War activities. The book is published. And that notice reminds me that I had planned to consult our Newington library, which interchanges with all Greater Hartford libraries, as I have a liking for such literature, and am just returning to the pleasures of reading, and have in mind to try some of Dolph's work. My apologies to Dolph for not following up on that intent already. The book title is, Damn the Torpedoes: Naval Incidents of the Civil War. And Admiral Farragut and the Monitor and the Merrimack and the Alabama are in it American history from high school - sounds good. Class Agent: Dr. John G. Hanna

Hope that you all had pleasant and happy holidays. I am somewhat tired of the cold and snow. I expect to leave Jan. 24, 1990 to visit the PGA Golf Show in Orlando with my sons, Michael and Gary, and my nephew Bill Ciotto, and also get to play some serious golf. I am anxiously awaiting to hear some news - so please write to me. Class Agent : William G. Hull

If you had an opportuni.ty to peruse The WaU Street Journal of Oct. 19,

1989, you would have seen photographs of the violent destruction along the Carolina coast due to Hurricane Hugo. In particular, you would have seen LEW WALKER's beloved Ozymandias high up on the beach ... a total wreck, never to sail again. Ruth Walker penned a vivid description of the havoc they found upon returning to the Isle of Palms where they have spent vacations for many years. Although the Walkers suffered extensive damage to their summer place, they hope to have things "shipshape" by July. And yes ... the ancient mariner is already looking for another boat. I might add that Lew's first book, which he has been writing for some time, will be out in print by January. Word from California states that DICK UNDE has disposed of his farm and has given up his long-time hobby

and recreation of raising and training horses. Since it is January as this column is being put together, one hopes among your New Year resolutions you will resolve to send me a few words about yourself during the coming year. Class Age nt: Lewis M. Walker

Dr. Richard K . Morris 214 Kelsey Hill Rd. REUNION Dee p River, Conn. 06417 WALLY BORIN , chairman of the 50th Reunion Committee, is keeping in touch with Committee members. You have their names on the last letter from Wally. Call the one nearest to you for any questions you may have about the weekend of June 14-17 (this year!), our Golden, Half-Century, biggest, most significant Reunion. (The alumni office has received word of the death of Wally's wife, Marguer ite, and we extend our sympathy to Wally and his family.) This is also a busy time for STEVE RILEY as our Class Agent who is charged with increasing our contributions to the Alumni Fund on the occasion of our reunion. The Class of 1940 Memorial Scholarship Fund officially stands at $18,998 ($3,100 over the previous year). It is one of our many legacies to our Alma Mater. There is still time to up the ante before we sit down at the Class of '40 Dinner in June. Five years ago we agreed that income from the Fund would again be opened in June 1990 to aid worthy Trinity students. As sons of the Great Depression and participants in World War 11, we know the importance of such scholarships. BOB PYE reports that he may not be able to attend our 50th Reunion in light of the fact that so many of his family members have relocated. We are sorry to hear this. BILL WOLF, our valedictorian, will soon see his first novel in print. It is the story of Benedict Arnold, hero and traitor, to be published by Paideia Press. He has skillfully woven a fascinating yam. Dottie, wife of our late HERB BLAND, reports from Laconia, N.H. that she is well and mindful of our coming 50th Reunion which she hopes to attend. DICK MORRIS is still physically incapacitated by his accident last July, but he and Alice are looking forward to the 50th. Class Age n t: Stephe n M. Riley, Esq .

In my last report, relying on an Aetna source, I said that DO DAY had recently celebrated his 75th birthday. Don has reacted strongly, saying that this is a gross misrepresentation which belies his actual status as a young adult. What he will do to the Aetna pub-

licity department will be the terror of the earth. In an effort to make amends, the next time Don and I are at a Trinity social function, I shall arrange to have the bartender ask to see his driver's 路 license. Class Age nt: Donald J . Day

EDWARD ROSEN writes: "Thoroughly e~oying retirement beneath sunny sides of Biloxi, Miss. Classmates welcome if passing through!" (Ed's invitation would be good to note in your next Triptik, fellows.) "Kindness is couple's way of life" reads a Hartford Courant article sent me by JERRY HANSEN '51. DON VIERlNG, his wife, Marie, and their children are praised and heralded for benevolence and neighborliness - with spetheir hometown of cifics - in Collinsville, Conn. The Vierings modestly brush all this off as ordinary small town congeniality. Should we of Trinity's benevolent and influential Class of '42 not take a small bow for all this? Apparently Don's mellowed even more since football days with Coach Dan Jessee. And - a good recovery is wished for Marie from her reported illness. GEORGE JACOBSEN and Alice report an exciting 1989. A highlight was the return of son ROD '73 from a twoyear teaching stint in Kenya, accompanied by his wife and the Jacobsens' first grandchild. Then, daughter Kathy was married in Bates College Chapel with reception at the family lake house in Monmouth, Maine. There's much more of interest in George's letter, which also mentions his attending grade school in the distant past with Class Agent CHARLEY JOHNSON and his brother, BILL JOHNSON '39. Charley sent me news of the formidable JACK SWIFT, now reported in Pakistan for U.S. Agency International Developme nt. He and wife Frances expect to be there at least a year. How can we disagree with Charley's opinion that Jack is "more than an engineer, having graduated from Trinity"? From the same source: ''Virginia Earle, Bud's widow, writes:' ... I have established a small scholarship at Trinity in Bud's name. It will be known as The LYON H. EARLE, JR. M.D. Memorial Scholarship Fund. It will be given to a deserving junior or senior pre-med student. By deserving, I mean needy.' " I had pleasant holiday notes from MILFORD RHINES and JOHN CHURCHILL. DON VINCENT came up with a friendly letter enclosing an enviably youthful yet current photo of him and Alys, plus shots of their summer home in Old Forge, N.Y. More '42 talent emerges as Don writes: "I've been working with stained glass for 22 years, making anything from suncatchers to windows, and always giving them away. Last summer the Art Center in Old Forge, to encourage local artists and craftsmen, opened a store called "The Artworks." I was one of the 14 persons selected to join the group. We

also received a large grant from Adirondack orth Country Association, an organization formed to encourage orth Country crafts to develop jobs. So now I'm selling items through the store, and working in the store about three days a month." Don, a six-year retiree, e~oys siding in that heavy snowfall area conveniently close to his winter home in New Hartford, N.Y. I've been in ham radio contact again with energetic KEN ALBRECHT. Firmly rooted now with wife Beverly in rural east Texas, he reported this in a letter: " . .. went to Paris, Texas for a coin show . . . I don't know if I ever mentioned it but I've been a collector and a sort of vest pocket dealer for almost 30 years. I specialize now in foreign coins only, as U.S. ones have gone somewhere in space as far as prices are concerned." 1f you agree wtth me that these classmates' hobbies and activities are worthwhile and interesting, YOUR SECRETARY earnestly solicits more information from you "seldom heard" fellows out there. Please communicate! Good news and bad news report: Ruth and I spent a delightful evening recently at a real, for sure Trinity reception at the Seattle lakeside home of DR. TED WAGNER '62. We were educated on today's China by DR. MlCHAEL LESTZ '68 of the faculty, and energized by the College's JEFFREY MOFFETT '87. Despite the "isolation" of this area from New England, the group of 30 or 40 in attendance agreed we should form a Trinity club, about which more later! Highlight of that evening was to find JOHN R. JONES of Seattle there, a classmate I recalled but hadn't seen since graduation. John looks fine; is retired, doing some writing, more especially about his own experiences. He, too, has children in the Northwest. I now have his phone number and hope to say more about him next time. Oh yes - the "bad news" - we (Class of '42ers) were unquestionably the oldest people at the reception. Guess we'd better count our blessings, at that!

JIM MURRAY was Hartford Radio WTI sports announcer Scott Gray's guest on a telephone hook-up with Los Angeles, Tuesday evening, Jan. 12, 1990, on his regular sports broadcast and New England listeners e~oyed the rare treat of hearing the nation's finest sports columnist do an unrehearsed interview. Jim was in fine fettle. When asked for observations concerning the recent Leonard-Duran championship middleweight fight, he referred to it as a "nonfight ..." continuing "after a few rounds of such non-fight in the old days, the crowd would begin singing 'Let Me Call You Sweetheart"' and "I don't know how Leonard got that cut on his face, I didn't see Duran land a punch all night"; "At most stages, the non-fight appeared to be more of a ga-

votte than a round"; and 'These fighters were at longer range than the participants in the Battle of Jutland." Scott Gray referred to the fact that Jim has been doing a sports column for The Los Angeles Times since 1953 and has been named "Sports Writer of the Year" 14 times by the National Sportscasters and Sportswriters Association, a record achieved by no other nationally-syndicated sports writer. ALLIE RESONY was among the first to phone in when Scott opened the program to local participation and Allie's first question to Jim was did he remember the home run he hit for Trinity's freshman baseball squad in 1940. Jim said that he certainly did and could see it sailing over FRED FOX's head even to this day. He said he didn't know how he managed to bring it off, but after it happened, Dan Jessee gave him and RUBE POMERANTZ uniforms. Before Jim let Allie go, he inquired about Allie's brother, JOHN RESONY, a testimonial to Jim's remarkable memory. AUie replied that both he and John were now retired and playing golf full time. Allie and John spent most of their adult lives in the employ of The Hartford Insurance Group and The Travelers Insurance Company, respectively, both achieving high executive positions in those two multi-national corporations. MUSH GUILLET came on the line shortly after Allie and reminded Jim that he was at second base on that 1940 freshman baseball team which Jim was quick to recall. Responding to one of Mush's questions, Jim let tire several caustic and bitingly humorous comments about the state of college athlete recruiting which I shall try to include in a future edition of this column. Mush told Jim that he missed seeing him at our 45th Reunion to which Jim replied he regretted his inability to attend, reminding Mush that he had attended the one previous and hoped to make the next one. Mush is a retired executive of The Aetna Life and Casualty Company, largest stockholder owned insurance company in the United States. Scott mentioned a collection of Jim's work published by Taylor Books, presently available in book stores, and which should provide great reading to those who e~oy sports articles sprinkled with hilarious Jim Murrayisms. One comes to mind. Scott Gray asked him to talk a bit about the greatest athlete he remembered covering personally during the course of his long career. Jim responded that he always used to revere Ben Hogan. He said in fact his late wife always used to say that if Jim gets to heaven and Hogan isn't there, he ain't staying! All in aU, the interview was a huge success, in no small measure due to participation on the part of Jim's classmates from the Class of 1943. BOB HALE retired on Nov. 1, 1989 after many years of distinguished service as a Superior Court judge. He will continue in Connecticut's judiciary system as a senior judge. Prior to his appointment to the bench, Bob served for a number of years as first assistant tax commissioner of the State of Connecticut, inheritance tax division. Class Age n t: Carlos A.

DR. HARRY GOSSLING and BILL PEELLE of the Class of 1944 recently met with Trinity College President Tom Gerety to discuss means of interacting with the educationaUy underprivileged children of the Hartford community. President Gerety will search out options to help ensure better educational opportunities for people in the inner city. We find it exciting as we near our Fiftieth Reunion to have a chance to play a role in Tom's plans for the Col路 lege. We'll keep in touch as matters develop. BiU, who is Trinity Board secretary, participated in the ground-breaking ceremony for the College's first academic building in more than 20 years. The new $9.5 million structure will include the mathematics department and center, the computing center, and the department of engineering and computer science. Harry has just returned from a workfun trip through Asia, touching down in Kuwait, Bahrain and Singapore, the remarkable city-nation at the tip of Malaysia He stopped off in England before heading east, where he met with old friends in Kuwait. While in Singapore, Harry presented a paper to the Southwestern Pacific Orthopedic Association. Harry, who is chief of orthopedic surgery at the University of Connecticut Health Center in Farmington, is the first occupant of a chair named for him and two of its donors, Harry and Helen Gray. We learned from him that Singapore has a rather draconian method of dealing with the world-wide drug problem. Anyone caught with illegal drugs in his or her possession is executed. The death penalty applies, also, in neighboring Malaysia Back here in Hartford, Harry lunched recently with retired Professor GEORGE B. COOPER H'83, who spoke at our 40th Reunion and is an honorary member of our class. A resident of Simsbury, George also had just returned from England. He is a distinguished international scholar, specializing in English history and constitution - that remarkable unwritten document that consists of customs, usages and practices of British parliamentary government. DICK HASTINGS and WALTER GHE T have signed on as co-class agents, thus completing our line-up of fund-raisers for the annual campaign. Speaking of fund-raising, we learned from BiU Peelle that we are nearing the $5,000 figure in contributions to date toward the 50th Reunion Class Gift. You can earmark contributions for that Class Gift; and when our individual contributions pass that $5,000 figure, the College will credit us with interest on money so earmarked. Our 50th Reunion committee met with College officials and staff on ov. 11 , after our victory over arch footbaU rival We leyan. Present were Gossling, Class Vice Presidents MARK TENNEY, DR. ROGER CONANT and Peelle, Treasurer BOB TOLAND, retired Trinity

Vice President TOM SMITH, YOUR SECRETARY, and Larry Duffy and JULIANA GARRO '86 of the Trinity administration. Smith and your secretary were named co-editors for the 50th Reunion Profile Book, which wiU be published and distributed during that 1994 event. Your secretary is involved in another bit of fund-raising. He is treasurer of the Rhode Island Uons Cancer in Children Fund, a maintenance and support organization for the families of children suffering from cancer. This group has pledged to raise $250,000 toward building a Ronald McDonald house on the campus of Rhode Island and Women's and Infants' Hospitals in Providence, and already has raised $150,000 toward that goal. The house is now open and operating. My wife, Josephine, is also active in Rhode Island Lions work. She is the first woman to join a previously allmale Uons Club in Rhode Island (the Newport club) and is currently serving as state chairperson of World Service Day activities. Word has been received of the death of HRISTOPHER D. WADSWORTH. He had been a professor of architecture at Pratt Institute in Brooklyn, N.Y. and maintained a residence in Stonington, Conn. While at Trinity he was a member of Sigma Nu fraternity. We extend our sympathy to his family. Hey, guys, please write and tell us about your doings and those of your families - your kids, your grandchildren, etc. We want to make this regular column in the Reporter as newsy as possible. Tell us about your trips, too, other Trinity people you've seen and anything else of interest. We want to know.

The only '49er that I have heard from since our reunion was a short note from RON URQUHART on his Christmas card thanking us aU for making his reunion a memorable event. Well, that says it aU, since I haven't heard from the rest of you, I'll just bore you with what I have been up to since last June. Two days after the reunion, DAVE MCGAW and I flew out to Seattle where he lives and where I have not been since ushering in his wedding 40 years ago. Dave claims I used this long overdue visit reaUy to attend my World War IJ reunion in Seattle. Whatever, it was quite a surprise to see old Navy shipmates you haven't seen for well over 44 years; and as you can imagine, the sea stories were flowing constantly, some of them true. YOUR SECRETARY reached age 65 in September and took a Retired General Agent contract which relieved him of aU agency responsibilities so that he can do as little or as much new business as he desires. Consequently, I am now concentrating on servicing my personal clients and teaching an insurance course. I have always wanted to teach, and I am thoroughly eJ:\ioying myself.

Royston Wins Hemingway Look-Alike Contest

RICHARD ROYSTON '55 of Atlanta, Ga. posed in the stud y of Ernest Hemingway's house in Key West, Fla . after winning a Hemingway look-alike contest last summer.

ichard D. Royston '55 has earned a spot in literary history. Competing against 47 other men , Royston won the 1989 Ernest Hemingway look-alike contest in Key West, Fla . last summer. The honor entitled him to a $100 bar tab at Sloppy Joe's, where the competition was held, and to permanent status as a judge of future Hemingway look-alike contests there. The morning after his victory, Royston posed for photographers in the book-lined study where the famous writer worked . Sharing the limelight with Royston (who is a dog lover) was a descendant of one of Hemingway's cats. In real life, Royston is president of The Royston Companies , based in Atlanta, Ga . He's a member of the Phi Kappa Chapter of Alpha Delta Phi. Royston explained that he does a lot of deep sea fishing, so he normally visits Key West during the annual Hemingway Festival Week for the Hemingway fishing contest. Friends insisted that he bore a strong resemblance to Hemingway and coaxed him into entering the look-alike contest, too.

E. Wade Close, Jr. 622 West Waldheim Rd. REUN IO N Pittsburgh, Pa. 15215 We are most appreciative to our many classmates who are organizing the forthcoming 35th Reunion. All of us are particularly grateful for the work being done by the reunion committee chairs, JOE MICHELSON, DAVID DIMLING, BILL LA PORTE and WADE CLOSE. There should be a solid turnout for the June 14-17 wt>ekend, partic-ularly because of the many "early" retirees we have in our midst who don't have anything else to do.

JOE HEINEMAN has retired from GTE after 30 years and has returned to the Tampa area where he and Betty have recently moved into a newly-constructed "dream" home. Actually, Joe has started a telecommunications consulting business so he can play golf occasionally with clients. Also in the retired but consulting category are DICK BITTNER and ALAN BRODY. RON KENT retired from the Navy in 1981 and has held a number of marketing positions, his most current being executive director of marketing for National Geographic in Washington, D.C. Ron reported having been in touch with FRANK CERVENY, who he says had come close to succumbing to blood poisoning, but is now on the mend. In other news on early retirees, MOUNT ARCHER, BOB DONAHUE,

BOB DIAMOND and BOB MULLANEY all have found ways to live the good life without rushing to the office each morning. Also informing us of his retirement from Connecticut Mutual Life Insurance Co. last June, is RICHARD WAINMAN. In October 1989 he formed GFI Investing Co. to do investment research in selected areas. He says he hopes it's the start of a second career since he is "too young to be fully retired!" He continues to be active in the financial and investment operations of the Episcopal Diocese of Connecticut. DICK FREYTAG and Pamela Burge were married about a year ago and enjoyed a honeymoon to Paris, Amsterdam and The Hague. Dick still enjoys logging flying time through his Air -Force Reserve activity. He earned his second star in March 1989. Still flying commercial jets is RICHARD FERRARO who handles flights for American Airlines out of Logan/Boston. TONY MCKIM is doing well in his architectural practice in Red Bank, N j. BOB HODES keeps a full schedule as a New York lawyer. HANK SCHEINBERG has returned to a former employer, Fred Sands Realty, to head their 75-person residential sales force. Hank and his bride, Becky, have been married four years and are expecting a daughter in May. Unless another comes forward to claim the honor, we will recognize Hank as the Class symbol of the fountain of youth. Hank claims he is going to keep trying until he has his boy. BOB LAIRD has moved from St. Louis to Damariscotta, Maine where he is director of human resources for Miles Health Care Center. BILL O'HARA resigned as president of Bryant College in mid-1989. Since tl1en he and Bobbie have been on sabbatical, are now traveling to Spain, but expect to be back for Reunion. We were particularly pleased to hear from TERRY FORD, who reported on the happy turn of events in Panama and the hope for a peaceful environment. He had a couple of ugly close calls during the height of the "bullying" by Noriega's goons, but probably won't want to talk much about that when he returns to Trinity this coming June.

Macdonald Has One-Man Show

he scenery and people of a small fishing village in Spain are depicted in a

T series of paintings and drawings by Bruce Macdonald '56.

Macdonald, who heads a graphic design firm in New York City, had a oneman show titled "Reflections of Spain" at the Northridge Art Gallery in Ridgefield , Conn. last fall. The exhibition included over 30 oil paintings , sketches and pastels which were inspired when Macdonald and his wife, Sunny, rented a small house in Campbello near Alicante on the Costa Blanca. The surrounding countryside with its olive trees, old castles and windmills as well as the village's flamenco club and medieval festival all provided subjects for Macdonald's art. A New Canaan, Conn. resident, Macdonald is president and partner of Congdon Macdonald, the graphic design firm he started a decade ago . The firm, which specializes in packaging and publication design, has Pepsi Cola International as its largest account. "Congdon Macdonald is 10 years old and growing . At the same time, I am increasingly feeling the urge to go back to art- this time, fine art," he said. "Since 1987 I have been directing my interests more and more toward painting. I've taken two trips abroad to gather sketches and photographs for paintings. " Macdonald's interest in art is long-standing. As an undergraduate, he was involved with arts-related activities . After graduating, he spent three years in art school in Chicago before serving in the U.S . Army. Returning to Chicago, he worked as a junior illustrator, married Sunny Black and had two children . "In 1965 I grew restless and went to London to see if I could make a living as a free-lance illustrator, and to do some United Kingdom painting," herecalled. "This turned out to be a good move. I was accepted in some good shows over there and developed skills in graphic design. I returned to the U .S. in 1970 and was employed as a graphic designer for a U.S . firm owned by Young and Rubicam until1979 when I resigned to start my own firm." Some of Macdonald's paintings are in the permanent collections of The Butler Institute of American Art and the Union League Club of Chicago. He has won awards in juried exhibitions at the National Academy of Design in New York and the Chicago Art Institute . He hopes to have another exhibition in 1991 of artwork stemming from his recent trip to Provence in southern France.

his son, DOUGLAS '85, is at Georgetown University in Washington studying foreign relations and international policy. SKIP BEARDSELL called at about the same time to discuss a printin!}' color separation business he may invest in. His daughter, Ellen, left the Peace Corps to get married, and lives in Vancouver. His other daughter, Kathy, is living at home and working in Utica, and son Mark is in graduate school in Syracuse. He told me that HOWIE GARTLAND is a grandfather, for the third time. I saw CHARLIE STEHLE at the opening of my art exhibition in Ridgefield, Conn. in early November. He was en route to see his son, CAUSTEN '88, who is living in the Stamford, Conn. area. DICK STANSON called last week (January) to discuss the possibility of purchasing a bronze rooster by wellknown sculptor Eliott Ofner, for the College. The idea would be to get it and give the bronze to the College in the name of our class, at our next reunion. Please write me, care of the College, if you would like more information on this project, or to comment. I have seen this sculpture and it is large and handsome. EDWARD A. MONTGOMERY, JR. joined United Way of Southeastern Pennsylvania as vice president of resource development in January. Ned has assumed the management responsibilities for all United Way fundraising activities, including implementation of the annual campaign plan and supervision of the organization's professional fundraising staff. He joined United Way's management team after serving as chairman of the 1990 United Way Campaign, a volunteer post. United Way President Ted L. Moore said Ned's blend of experience in banking, stature in the Greater Philadelphia business and philanthropic communities and effective tenure as chairman of last year's United Way Campaign makes him ideal to lead United Way's fundraising efforts in the 1990s. He retired recently as chairman and chief executive officer of Mellon Bank (East) after a 29-year career with MeUon Bank Corp., parent of Mellon Bank (East). Ned served in numerous management capacities with Mellon Bank Corp., both in the United States and abroad.

Two years from this June will be our 35th Reunion. Therefore, plans are underway to appoint your Reunion Committee this spring, so that we can hold our first meeting by fall and get things

underway. Like the U.S. Marines, I am still looking "for a few good men" to serve their class on this committee, and would ask anyone to get back to me if he feels he can help in any way with the Reunion plans. I received a note from FRED SILL in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. He has been elected to the "Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences," the group that awards ''The Oscars." Fred says that now he will be able to write in PAUL MARION's name on the ballot, as soon as he can figure out what category Paul would fall under - comments please!

We all hope Paul will make the next reunion as he will have two reasons for coming East. BILL STOUT once more bailed out WARD CURRAN , the George M. Ferris Professor of Corporate Finance and Investments at Trinity, by arranging to have Ward bring his freshman seminar class to the New York Stock Exchange. Ironically, Ward's seminar is entitled "Financial Panics in American History." They all had lunch at the Exchange, and spent the day on the floor, which was quite an experience for them all. The date was Monday, Oct. 16, immediately after the mini-crash of Oct. 13. Great timing, Ward! WALT SHANNON remains a conservative supporter of Trinity and was active in the search for a new President. Keep it up, Walt! GEORGE KELLEHER has finished his 30th year in the Westfield School system, and writes that he met with classmates Curran and WINSLOW and even had a chance to get into our old room over Hamlin Hall for one more look down the Long Walk.

The only news YOUR SECRETARY has received since our 30th reunion is that ANDRE LAROCHELLE has been promoted recently to director of special projects for The Associated Construction Company of Hartford. ALAN (The Goodge) MILLER and his wife, Susan, were so enthralled with PAUL KARDON and me, and our wives at the reunion, that they invited us to their weekend home in Westport, Conn. We had a lovely time with them. They had forgotten that we are "Foodies," and we atmost ate them out of house and home. On Dec. 30, 1989 I attended a surprise party to celebrate Paul Kardon's 50th birthday. Paul's wife, Chris, arranged a fantastic banquet at the Triple 8 Restaurant which is a Hong Kong style Chinese restaurant situated under the Manhattan Bridge in Chinatown. Now, you say, how can it be that Paul is celebrating his 50th birthday, when we all celebrated that auspicious occasion some years ago. Such a question deserves an answer. Paul Kardon was 15 years old when he entered Trinity in September 1955. He was a very tall kid and had a terrible complexion. His first roommate was Sl LEVIT. His roommates in his later years were PAUL (Little) JAFFEE, not to be confused with DICK (Big) JAFFE, and SAM HIMELSTEIN. Si roomed with PAUL GOODMAN, WALT GRAHAM and me in our sophomore year, and with CRAIG BROBERG and me in our junior and senior years. Si is a cardiologist in Tulsa. Paul Jaffee is a dermatologist on Long Island and Sam Hirnelstein is an itinerant ophthatmologist. I assume that Paul studied a great

deal. I make this assumption based upon the fact that he wasn't with JIM PRICE, JOHN KENNEY and me at the CoUege View Tavern. Occasionally, I would share a salami sandwich with Paul at the Hillel Society and talk about the availability of Jewish girls in Hartford. To earn pocket money, he worked at the Psi Upsilon fraternity house as waiter and dishwasher. He belonged to the Independents. He m~ored in pre-medical and biology and graduated with a B.S. at the age of 19. No one suspected his youth. In the Fall of 1959, he entered Downstate Medical School in Brooklyn, N.Y. He married Christina Smith. I attended the wedding, not by invitation from Paul, but by coincidence. I was on summer break after my first year of law school and was working for my uncle in the girdle and brassiere manufacturing business. I was a cutter's assistant. One day I cut my hand and was sent to the neighborhood doctor who treated our company's employees. The doctor was Milton Kardon, Paul's father. I began dating Dr. Kardon's nurse and as a result, when she was invited with guest to attend Paul's wedding, I was her guest. Several years later, I visited Paul and Chris at their apartment in Brooklyn. Paul graduated medical school and served in the Army. He completed his residency and moved to Poughkeepsie, N.Y. where he joined an OB/GYN group. He and hris raised their children, Craig and Gabriel. In 1974 I caUed Paul to see if he were going to attend our 15th reunion at Trinity. Why did I seek him out after all those years where we were but slight friends who shared little more than a salami on rye? It was very obvious in that !&-yearold boy that he exuded integrity. I recalled how he maintained that integrity in his devotion to study, to friends, and to all phases of life. That reunion weekend was the start of a friendship between Paul and me that was intensified with each passing year. Our wives share our friendship. Paul consumes the printed page. His retentive and creative mind has served him weU in his medical profession as weU as in our common interest in food , wine and travel. In the years since 1974, together with our wives, we have traveled to Israel, Japan, Mexico and numerous times to Italy. In 1988 our families shared a villa in the hills of Tuscany. This fall we will be sharing an apartment in Florence for several weeks and then will go off to investigate the province of Apuglia I think I know why I like to hang around Paul, it makes me feel good to be with a younger person. Let me hear from you '59ers. Class Agents: Robert D. Coykendall Willlam J. Schreiner

Johnson Takes Helm of Manufacturers Hanover fter two decades at Chemical A Bank, Thomas S. Johnson '62, a

College trustee, crossed Park A venue to assume the presidency of the country's seventh largest bank - Manufacturers Hanover Corporation. "It was easy to make the decision; it's a chance for me to be number one in a big company. I wouldn't have had that chance at Chemical," said Johnson, heir apparent to Manufacturers Hanover Chairman John F. McGillicuddy, who had previously announced that he intends to leave within a few years. The announcement ofJohnson's switch to a rival bank made headlines in December. As Chemical Bank's president and second ranking officer, he had been responsible for all global corporate and institutional business, as well as for the administration and technology functions. Johnson didn't leave Chemical without regrets: "In 20 years, you make a lot of intense friendships . Even though you say 'let's keep in touch,' you have to get going quickly with hundreds of new people." Johnson will initially work on reorganization of Manufacturers Hanover's global wholesale bank. The bank's combination of wholesale and retail banking is "the right mix for the future and the year 2000 as U.S. banking changes," he said, but the bank's wholesale area "needs reorganization to be competitively a winner." Despite his busy career, Johnson always manages to find time for Trinity. In addition to serving as a charter trustee, he is a past chairman of the Board of Fellows, a former officer of the Trinity Club of New York and served for 10 years as class agent. His devoted participation to the life of the College has earned him an Alumni Medal of Excellence, the first Gary McQuaid A ward for outstanding achievement in business and an Alumni Achievement Award. "I subscribe very strongly to the notion that a liberal education is the most valuable thing to prepare you for leadership," he said, reflecting on

his experiences at Trinity. During his freshman year at Trinity, Johnson talked his way into an economics course normally not open to first-year students . "This was terrifically fortunate for me, because it gave me exposure to probably the best professor I ever experienced, John Candelet, who died near the end of that year." Johnson went on to earn a B .A . in economics. "The department was wonderful - Professors Battis, Scheuch, Dunn and Candelet. I felt very lucky and I use my economics grounding every day of my life." "We became friends the very first week of school," recalls William C. Richardson '62, his friend and former roommate who was recently named president of Johns Hopkins University. "He was one of the two most impressive people of my age that I ever met. Even as a freshman, he was so wise beyond his years and had tremendous insight into other people, a very strong sense of values and spiritual center, and was just a lot of fun to be with . I've felt that way ever smce. Along with the economics department, John Butler '33 (then Trinity's director of placement) had a tremendous influence on Johnson's life. "He broadened my ambitions and convined me I ought to shoot real high ," he said. "He convinced me I should

go to Harvard Business School." Johnson earned his M.B.A. with distinction from Harvard in 1964 and retained strong memories ofButler's guidance. A few years ago, a gift from Johnson and his wife, Ann, to The Campaign for Trinity enabled renovation and expansion of the Career Counseling Office. After business school, Johnson went to the Philippines where he served as head of a new graduate school of business then being established at the Ateno de Manila University. "That was my best job ever. To have had that responsibility at 23 was a special privilege," he said. Following that, he was a special assistant to the comptroller of the U.S. Department of Defense until1969 when he joined Chemical Bank. Johnson has high hopes for Trinity's future: "! am hoping that Trinity can continue to be a preeminent place for liberal learning and leadership. Under Tom Gerety's leadership, we have a chance to put this place on the map nationally. It's a time o.f great change in education; those are the times for repositioning, " he said. "! believe a competitive urge is as important in running a college as in a business. We must focus on excellence and we must want the best possible students to come here. We have that chance, in the future, to look back at the '90s as the time when Trinity secured itself as a top small college in the country . "Trinity's location in Hartford gives us the chance to deal with pluralistic issues that will color the country in the 2000s. By the year 2000, over half of the entering work force in the country will consist of 'minorities.' From a very selfish point of view, American institutions need to be able to deal more effectively with the tremendously rich variety of Americans. "Through affirmative action, we will be able to enrich the educational process and contribute to the community. I'm very excited about Trinity's role in Hartford."

receive a little news from and/or about a couple of our classmates. First, DEYAN BRASHICH tells us that he has two daughters at Trinity! Alexis Deyan is in the Class of 1990 and Audrey Deyan is in the Class of 1993! It took two, of course, to replace their fa路 ther at Trinity. Next, we read that THOMAS S. JOHNSON is switching from Chemical Banking Corporation of Chemical Bank, New York, to the rival, Manufacturers Hanover Corporation. Last December it was announced that Tom was elected president of the holding company also of its Manufacturers Hanover Bank. Tom will also be a director of each organization. The chairman and chief executive officer of Manufacturers Hanover said that Tom will initially work on reorganization of Manufacturer Hanover's global wholesale bank. Congratulations to Deyan Brashich for his progeny and to Tom Johnson for his profluency. I received a great letter from ALAN C. ELWELL who lives in North Stamford, Conn. where he is an insurance consultant. Still married and "very much in love" with his wife of 28 years, Renate (to whom he proposed after three dates during his sophomore year at Trinity), the Elwells have three sons, all beginning their careers. Renate and Alan are currently planning a fivemonth, 12-country biking trip across Europe. He is also still into underwater exploration and sailing. Drop Alan a note at 840 Rockrirnmon Rd., North Stamford, Conn. 06093. (From the editor: The following news note arrived too late for forwarding to the Class Secretary.) The Jan. 8, 1990 edition of The Hartford Coumnt's labor relations column quotes ALBERT ZAKARIAN, a lawyer with Day, Berry & Howard.

Richardson Named President ofJohns Hopkins University oicing his appreciation for "the

V very high honor you've done

me," Dr. William C . Richardson '62 in January accepted the presidency of The Johns Hopkins University in Baltimore, Md . Currently the executive vice president and provost of The Pennsylvania State University, he was unanimously elected Hopkins 11th president from an initial pool of300 nommees. Richardson 's interest in health care administration was sparked before his graduation from Trinity as a history major. He worked in a hospital to get a feeling for the field and chose the University of Chicago for his M .B.A . because of its option in health care management. During spring semester of the senior year, Richardson recalls, he and his close friend and Theta Xi fraternity brother, Tom Johnson '62, were stricken with " senioritis," in happy anticipation of their respective graduate studies the next year. Coincidentally, now both serving on Trinity's board of trustees, the former roommates have continued their threedecade friendship and speak glowingly of each other's accomplishments . "I've always been in awe ofBill," says Johnson, "because of his unbelievable articulateness and interest in the intellectual side of things. The combination of deep intellectual commitment and management capabilities is rare, especiaUy when coupled with his sense of humor and genuine warmth. He can't fail to leave an historic mark on Johns Hopkins ." Richardson decided on a career in education after an internship in epidemiological research convinced him that he really enjoyed teaching as well as research. After earning a Ph.D . from the Graduate School of Business at the University of Chicago, where he was a research associate and instructor in the Center for Health Administration Studies, he joined the faculty of the University of Washington School ofPublic Health and Community Medicine. He progressed through the teaching ranks to full professor and then served , successively, as chairman

of the department, associate dean of public health and community medicine, and dean of the graduate school and vice provost for research . In 1984 he was named to the number-two post at Penn State, a major land-grant university with more than 70,000 students on 23 campuses. Richardson, who assumes the Hopkins post on July 1, will be looking for a home in Homewood, Md ., with his wife, Nancy . One of the most exciting aspects of the new job, he said, is "learning about a new university, the issues, areas of specialization and particular trengths and weaknesses." He said the 114-year-old university is "regarded worldwide as a leader in an impressive diversity of areas. " One of his highest priorities will be "to develop an academic planning process that will highlight the interrelationships among and between the several divisions" of the university . Among the challenges facing college administrators in the '90s, he cited the changing demographics of college constituencies and the declining pool of available faculty . "It's going to be a highly competitive era, " he said . "You're going to see that reflected in pressures on institutions for faculty salaries and increasingly reflected in costs to universities of providing a working environment in which faculty can be their most creative and make their greatest contributions. "I think we're in for a very exciting decade in many ways .

800 line, but from there it is all free. I am still hopeful that this will be the last time I will have to use such a paragraph as a filler to make my part in the alumni Reporter look more than something vacant for THE CLASS in Trinity's history. Our biggest news since the last Reporter has been the selection of the Class of '63 &holar. His name is Tony Canata '93 from South Hadley, Mass. Tony graduated from South Hadley High School. Those of us who were lucky enough to get to Homecoming Weekend, Nov. 10-ll, and attended our annual post game cocktail/dinner party in Hamlin, had the opportunity to meet Tony whose mother and sister were also there. Tony is a real credit to our class and we should all forward our continuing support to this young man through his years at Trinity and beyond He is the first of many Class of '63 progeny. Speaking of Homecoming, those of us who had not had the opportunity to meet Tom Gerety and his wife, Adelia, had another chance to meet him during this weekend. All have been impressed with his youthful vigor and bright vision for Trinity's future. I do sound old in saying that, but you understand. Homecoming Dinner: BILL and Martha HOWLAND came with babe John Richmond Pittman in tow. My! Youth springs eternal in our class for those who still have the glint (or whatever) in the eye! Bill, congratulations to you, Martha, and your other children: Bill, Jr. (24), M'liz (22) and Polly (18). We wish you loads of good luck and sleep, being, of course, happy to leave you with the loads of loaded diapers! After our dinner, VIC KEEN did the usual honors as MC and managed, after much prompting and coaxing to keep his comments short and to the point. Of note, his rambling covered the fact that the Class of '63 now has three out of eight Trinity Board of Fellows members: CHARLES MCGrLL, Vic Keen, and STEVE JONES. So we are better represented than any other class. We have one of the deans, JACK WAGGETT; and past trustees of the College, MARSHALL BLUME and STAN MARCUSS. DAVE RAYMOND is serving as president of the Alumni Association this year. We wish him well. And MIKE MASIUS is vice president of the Area Association in Hartford. Finally, DAN MOORE has been actively recruiting for Trinity in the Cleveland area. Maybe this litany of Class of '63 support to THIN COLL SANC will unearth a litany of other contributions from you and your classmates. Please let me hear from you if I have overlooked something that you are currently doing for the College. Last, but not in the least, is the now legendary SCOTT "superman" REYNOLDS whose talents and tricks are currently focused on the executive committee of the National Alumni Association. For kicks the old guy is chairman of the National Alumni Fund this year. Do bankers ever work at their regular jobs? Noticeably absent from the football game were Jack and Jean Waggett. Jean came Jack-less to the dinner. Jack was all the way back to Mexico, Mo. to help his parents move that weekend. We missed him for the second year in a row. Plan ahead, Jack!

To add to the burden of all this baby news from Howland is word from Martha SlMZIK. She reports that husband JOHN's classmates should know that he is, believe it!, the world's greatest father to their newly-adopted son. John . . . John? Father John? Good Father John? Martha, I am afraid you'll have to drag John and son back to Homecoming next year for all to witness before credibility can be gained on that count. In the meantime, our best wishes to you both on the adoption of your son. I received a fancy news bulletin from Dun & Bradstreet announcing Charles McGill's appointment to vice president - acquisitions for that corporation. Charles and Pat will be trading Utopian Lake Minnetonka for New York smog? What do children Amy and Charles have to say about that? Well, we're happy to have you back on the East Coast where you belong. Congrats, Charlie! Mid-winter reverie news comes from the fearless foursome: Vic Keen, TED RAFF, PERRY RIANHARD, and Jack Waggett. They usually get together with wives every Christmas time for a house party. However, Waggetts were in Egypt, Israel and Greece (funded by Jack's contra fund); Keen was in Omaha (but he made the Orange Bowl game over New Year's); Raff was in Westport, leaving Rianhard stone cold sober in Buffalo, a terrible condition. However, they apparently made the rendezvous over the weekend of Jan. 20 at Raffs in Westport. In checking with BFI in Westport, the Raffs trash the following Monday rivaled the aftermath of the Great Gatsby's big bash a mere par for this group! Through the alumni office TIM LENtCHECK reports that he is now joined in business with "old Boston Company friends at Excalibur Management Corporation in Boston." Excalibur is a portfolio management firm, registered, serving individual client needs. If truth be known, I know that Tim has been with this group for about two years now and that this news to you got lost with his notes for this column due about that time. Also, through the College, comes news that DICK GOLD has made an address change to Ross Environmental Services, Inc., 432 Stowaway Cove, Avon Lake, Ohio 44012. Dick, let us know what pollutants you deal with these days. Perhaps some of your classmates can help, one way or the other. JOHN DEPREZ says that he has left Reuters in New York where he was national sales manager - media to return to Shelbyville, Ind. to be publisher of The ShelbyviUe News, a family busi路 ness. John comments that his greatest challenge now is thinking small business in a very small town after being in the Big Apple with a two billion dollar enterprise for so long. We wish you luck, John! John mentioned that the last classmate he has seen in the recent past was HUNTER HARRIS. Hunter, if you are still with Bethlehem (let us know), you may be in the running for the Most Loyal One Company Career Classmate award. As far as we know, Rianhard is the only one close to you in that category. For those 10 percent of you who did not get the word, REV. MIKE SCHU-

LENBERG has also "returned to the womb"! He is now happily back in Red Wing, Minn. as rector of his home parish! What a full circle of triumph for Mike and Karen! In closing I would like to acknowledge BILL BRAGDON's Class of '64 news section which followed mine in the last issue of the Trinity Reporter. I suggest you read it if you missed it. I know my prose cannot match the wit of Bragdon, but I'm game for your help to make this place more fun and lively reading. Remember, I'll need your help! Keep it coming! Class Agents: Scott W.

Thank God winter's over. Put away the de-icer, boots and parkas. Get out the shorts, topsiders and Ralph Lauren shirts. Look in the mirror then call 1800-LOSE FAT. That reminds me, TED PETTUS checked in from his mid-Manhattan office at McCaffrey and McCall Adertising where he creates T.V. commercials for the country's top advertisers. To keep in shape, Ted jogs down Lexington Avenue to work each day. Fortunately there's a Dunkin' Donuts in the office lobby. DR. JOHN OGDEN is performing miracles at the Tampa Shriners Hospital for Crippled Children where he is chief of staff. John was recently in the national spotlight due to his extraordinary reconstructive work on a 14month-old girl born with Sirenomelia, more commonly known as "Mermaid Syndrome." Children with Sirenomelia are born with their legs fused together. After performing five successful operations, John's goal now is to see her walk with the help of special braces. Talking about successes, if you're in the market for new insurance or financial services, you now have a friend at CIGNA Corporation. WILSON TAYLOR, president and chief executive officer, was recently elected to the additional post of chairman of the board. If a tree falls on your house or some idiot crashes into your two-dayold Mercedes, just phone Wilson. Tell him I told you to call. If he can't fix it, nobody can! I continue to receive notes from DANA WHITE and CHARLEY TODD, chronicling their trips to Charley's posh Italian estate in Tuscany, the New Year's Eve party at a Mogul palace in India and their many conferences with former President Richard Nixon, whom they advise on national security matters and makeup hints. TOM SINGLETON writes that he has no intention of having another child this late in life, so stop badgering him.

BEN TRIBKEN continues to be an exemplary correspondent. He wrote to say he'll be captaining a new 47-foot Buddy Davis sportfisherman called the "Crossfire" out of Falmouth next year for big game (marlin and tuna), and that he's formed a new company, Fifty Fathoms Marine, Inc., for boat hauling and storage. Fishing, in fact, was Ben's excuse for not making Homecoming last fall. ROCK WILLIAMS, another good communicator, also wrote, this time informing us that he's added a new activity: he's now chairman of the board of directors of ISASI, a new organization whose name stands for Iowa South Af. rican Students, Inc. The purpose of the organization is to fund individual South African students studying in this country.

Some of you may have noticed there were no notes in the last issue. I blame Eddie and the Cruisers. Please feel free to use my fax number (203-677-5349), sending any kind of dirt on your fellow classmates, true or not. It is a Connecticut state law that you must send me any news about yourself, especially if it is unfit even for the National. Enquirer. Send photos, preferably black and white. On the fund raising front, BRAD MOSES, our inveterate dunner, reports the Class of '67 is already at 62% of the dollar goal. This is exemplary. We also want as widespread participation as possible. So get out the check book and send money. Or send your stamp collection or gold bars. In addition to raising money, Brad is pursuing a new life style. He has left the rat race to join the human race. Brad has moved to Burlington, Vt. He is still in advertising, now with an excellent Burlington agency named Sandage Advertising. Now instead of commuting two hours and ten minutes- one way! - he commutes ten minutes. Instead of taking the train to the office, Brad skis to the office. He has interesting clients such as JBI Jogging Bras and Max Men's Jocks. (Clearly the TriJtity education is a big help in this area) If you are looking for a good ad man, or if you would like to model for the jocks, or for the bras, call Brad at 802-658-4800.

Also in Burlington is BOB BOSE. Bob and Barbara (a college sweetheart, of course) live right on the shores of Lake Champlain. Lake Champlain is way up there, near the Arctic Circle. Bob is the head of Green Mountain Asset Management Corporation which manages pension and profit sharing funds, and manages money for wellheeled individuals. Bob's company has a good track record, using a low volatility philosophy for money management. It is easy to understand that Bob is good at watching money; he was such a Scrooge as treasurer of Alpha Chi Rho. If you have any money and you want to keep and grow it, please call Bob at 802-BBS-7142. I bumped into FRED SANDERS, ROBIN TASSINARI, ROGER DERDERIAN , and LARRY KESSLER at a Trinity session for the high school seniors of alumni. These guys all looked great (but Kess and I looked the best). Fred .s personnel director for the Connecticut State Department of Transportation. He has been there 23 years, probably a job continuity record for our class. Fred is responsible for personnel, safety and training for a department of 4500 people. He has 50 people in his direct charge. Fred and Beverly have three great kids: Colleen (18), Jonathan (16) and Michael (4). Colleen is a top student and is very interested in Trinity. The Sanders live in Rocky Hill, Conn., but if you want a job plowing snow or paving roads, give Fred a call at 203-566-4624. Fred reports that his good friend, TONI PARISI , is fixing bones right and left at Bristol, Conn. Hospital. Tony is an orthopedic surgeon and is head of orthopedics at the hospital. Tony and his wife, Charlene - who is a nurse at Bristol Hospital - have two wonderful children. If your poor old bones need a splint, give Tony a call at 203-585-3000. Robin Tassinari is his usual happy and jovial self. One of his 19 or 20 kids is also looking at Trinity. Larry Kessler's attractive daughter - who obviously takes after Barbara's side of the family - was another senior visiting the College for the weekend. Roger was meeting Tass to make sure he is

going to the health club regularly. One look at those bodies and you know the answer. LINK KEUR married Beverly Anne Baier in Brunswick, NJ . Link is teaching and coaching at Newark Academy in Livingston, NJ . Please stay tuned to the next issue for more details on this developing story.

I never did find my true love during my four-year tenure at Trinity. Lord knows I tried. Wednesday night club. Thursday night club. Friday nights wherever. Saturday afternoons in the stands watching the fighting Bantams.

Saturday nights who knows where. Art history classes- well known for excellent female:male ratios. But just because I didn't get lucky doesn't mean all of you didn't get lucky. Did you know that out of our class of nearly 500 people, there are 14 intraclass marriages. I wouldn't exactly call our class inbred, but it does mean 2.8 percent of our class married each other. Here is the list of couples who moved from "going steady" to "went matrimonial," with their occupations listed, as currently known to YOUR SECRETARY: THE REVEREND KENT E. ALLEN

Baker Heads Chesapeake Bay Foundation

graduate who majored A Trinity in art history now heads a 70,000-member conservation organization dedicated to preserving, protecting and restoring the Chesapeake Bay. William C. Baker '76 is president of the Chesapeake Bay Foundation, Inc. (CBF), based in Annapolis, Md. If his housing arrangements hadn't gone a wry back in 1976, the Baltimore, Md. native would probably be an architect - not an environmentalist- today. The Foundation, founded in 1966, fights to counteract the ill effects of pollution, overdevelopment and over-fishing on the Bay's fragile ecology. Known by its "Save the Bay" motto, CBF is active throughout the entire Chesapeake Bay watershed with programs in environmental ed-

ucation, legal and scientific advocacy, and land management. Baker's transformation from being an art history major w ho intended to be an architect to one who instead became an environmentalist was an unexpected fork in his career path. "I was an outdoor person and I've always been socially conscious, but I didn't have any formal training as an environmentalist," said Baker. As a studen t, he wrote art journalism articles, studied architecture, and was active in political campaigns and the anti-war movement. After graduating from Trinity, he decided to work for an archi tect in Washington, D.C. and attend architectural school - but his plans to occupy an apartment in the city feU through. Then he ran into Arthur Sherwood, who was founder and director of the fl edgling Chesapeake Bay Foundation. Sherwood suggested that Baker try some free-lance writing for the organization. A few months later, he was on the staff. "One day, I had to be a scientist; one day, a lawyer; and one day, a fundraiser," Baker recalled. In 1982, he was named president. "The C hesapeake Bay is but a small part of planet Earth, but it is a microcosm of the larger body. lfwe allow the Chesapeake to die, we will die along with it," Baker stated in the Foundation's 1988 annual report. "At the Chesapeake Bay Foundation, we see the potential for a future in which the Bay will once again support a diverse and healthy population of finfish and shellfish; a Bay in which your children will swim freely; a Bay !n which healthy grass beds will be

visible, even in seven feet of water." CBF education/research vessels, including vintage sailing skipjacks, are floating laboratories for over 30,000 students annually. The Foundation has developed a 280-acre farm into an education center and research site to develop better fa rmin g practices to help save the Bay. In recent years, the Foundation's work was honored with four national awards: The National Wildlife Federation's N ationa! Conservation Achievement A ward; the Gulf Oil Conservation Award; the Izaak Walton League of America's Chesapeake Bay Conservation Award; and the American Farmland Trust's Conservation A ward. Baker received the Rachel Carson Environmental Award in 1986 and Washingtonian Magazine's Washingtonian of the Year Award in 1988. He serves on a number of Chesapeake Bay-related committees, commissions and advisory boards. He is a member of the Board of Visitors and Governors of Washington College. He also serves on the advisory board of Save Our Sound , an organization established to protect Long Island Sound. "We see a system of environmental management for the Chesapeake Bay that will be a worldwide model of 'how to do it right.' If the Chesapeake- with its full array of pollution sources, its multiple political jurisdictions, its enormously diverse geographical profile and its burgeoning population- can find a way, then its success can be exported to any other ecosphere on the globe," Baker said.

H eadliner Mac Margolis ' 77 was among six journalists selected to receive one of journalism's most sought-after fellowships, an Alicia Patterson Foundation grant. Margolis will spend his fellowship year traveling, researching and writing articles on the conquest of the Amazon frontier for the Foundation's quarterly magazine. He lives in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil and is a special correspondent for Newsweek . He also writes for The Washitrgtoll Post and The Times of London.

idnie White '81 is one of just 25 scholars worldwide who are contributing

Seditors to the Dead Sea Scrolls Publication Project.

''I'm probably the yo ungest," said White, 30, who is also an assistant professor of religion at Albright University in Reading, Pa. White was awarded a 1989-90 postdoctoral fellowship from the National Endowment for the Humanities/ American Schools of Oriental Research for her work on the Dead Sea Scrolls. The Scrolls are ancient papyrus and leather texts found at seven sites along the northwest shore of the Dead Sea near Jerusalem between 1947 and 1960. Dating from the first century and earlier, the Hebrew and Aramaic manuscripts include the earliest known writings from the Jewish Bible. " I' m editing for publication the unpublished manuscripts from Cave IV in Qumran, where Dead Sea Scrolls were found ," White explained . ''I'm working on four manuscripts; it's an ongoing project." White conducted research at the W.F. Albright Institute in Jerusalem between Jul y 1989 and January 1990. Working w ith fragments of leather which had sustained damaged over the centuries is " like working on a jigsaw puzzle without looking at the picture and without having all the pieces," she explained. "The manuscripts I work on are in Hebrew. I try to piece them together in logical order and transcribe them. Then I translate them and write commentary on the contents," White said . Her comments include what the manuscripts' significance is in relation to the practice of Judaism in the Second Temple Period (from 150 B.C. to 68 A.D .). Approximately 20 volumes of the scholars' findings are expec~ed to be published by Oxford University Press by the year 2000. During her stay in Jerusalem, White said she was able to move about freely and made friends in the American, Israeli and Arab communities. " I loved living in East Jerusalem, the Arab part of the city . There is certainly tension; I personally never felt I was in danger, " she said . White earned a B .A. in religion and music from Trinity in 1981 , an M.T.S. from Harvard Divinity School in 1984 and a Ph.D . with distinction from Harvard University in 1988. Her areas of specialization are the history, theology and exegesis of the Hebrew Bible; the history, religion and culture of Second Temple Judaism; and the paleography and historical grammar of post-exilic Hebrew. She knows 10 languages and is an accomplished organist.

RHONDA KAPLAN writes that JILL HAGBERG just moved to Boston. In September I attended the wedding of KAY BURKE to CRAIG TATERONIS '85. Many, many classmates were there, and if I tried to name them all I'd probably leave someone out and then I'd feel bad. Let me just say that everyone who attended had an awesome time! I've been hearing rumors about a lot of moving about of various people please write me with details. DOREEN RICE-BUTLER was married in July to STEPHEN BUTLER '81 at the Trinity Chapel.

As reported last issue, Doreen has a new job as the assistant director of development for Trinity School in New York. She noted that she was writing Trinity School's equivalent to the Reporter - editing the class notes for the past 75 classes! I have sympathy. Doreen also began graduate study this fall at N.Y.U.

He met his future wife while studying at the Institute for European Studies in London. A June 1990 wedding is planned in San Francisco where the couple will reside. As for me, I am really el\ioying myself in my part-time studies at Fordham B-8chool. After spending three years terrified by the prospect of opening a text book or taking an exam, I am surprised to find myself so happy about it. As always, I will make my plea for more information. Don't be shy.
