XLIX NUMBER 3 Published monthly {except in August and September) by Brown University, Promdence, 12, R. I. Admitted to the second class of mail matter under the Act of August ZJf, 1912, at the Providence PoslOffice. ► ► A Big Lift in the New Campaigning ► ► Workers, reopening the second phase of the Brown Housing and Development Campaign, had rousing news to spur them on in mid-October. John D. Rockefeller, Jr., '97 had contributed shares of stock equivalent to about $400,000 as an immediate gift. "I am glad to do so," Mr. Rockefeller wrote to President Wriston, "as I am confident all other Alumni will be." Moreover, this generous benefactor expressed his intention of making a further and comparable dona- tion when other gifts in the new effort total $2,000,000 of the $3,000,000 sought in the campaign renewal. It was also learned in October that members of the Student Housing Board and the University Corpora- tion have contributed $230,000 not previously an- nounced. These gifts, with Mr. Rockefeller's provide a total of $630,000 as an initial impetus toward the second $3,000,000 objective. The Campaign filled an important post in its or- ganization last month when Donald G. Millar '19, President of the Greenfield Tap and Die Corp. of Greenfield, Mass., accepted appointment as national chairman for special gifts. Claude R. Branch '07, over-all campaign chief, made the announcement. Mr. Millar is a member of the Brown Board of Trust- ees, continuing by virtue of his Corporation election at the October meeting; he had previously served as an Alumni Trustee. A veteran of the first World War, he directed his company in consequential activ- ities during the second, and it received the Army- Navy "E" for excellence in production. These announcements all came as the Housing Fund made its appeal for Brown in the State of Con- necticut, "a pilot operation" which leads the way for the national effort. The first phase of the Housing and Development program brought a total of $3,000,- 000 for building at Brown and Pembroke, in which plans for construction of a Quadrangle to house 750 men in fraternity and dormitory units will provide the climax. The campaign, without public solicitation but with intensive study and reorganization pressed in committee during the past year, now seeks to raise a second $3,000,000 to complete the project. By conducting this second part of the enterprise on a regional basis, the campaign organization is able to direct its attention and provide technical service of greater help in each area. Other localized cam- paigns will follow the Connecticut one in succession. As the Connecticut men under Edwin H. Tuller '35, Regional Chairman, began their work Oct. 18, Brown men throughout the nation were watching and eager- ly awaiting word of their progress. *' Mr. Rockefeller's letter, expressing his hopes for the Housing and Development program, said, "The reasons for completing this project at an early date are, it seems to me, more forceful than ever in the light of the following: "1. The refinements, improvements and econ- omies which have been effected in the Plan within the past year and which have partially offset the effect of rising costs; "2. The pressing need for additional on-campus facilities to accommodate the highly qualified and geographically representative students who are re- sponding to the standards, ideals, and educational opportunities which Brown affords; "3. The importance of the liberal arts ideal to which Brown is dedicated in the training for leader- ship of men and women of vision, breadth, and courage, and; "4. The urgent need of approaching in our colleges a solution to the difficult problem of college fraternity relationships. "I understand that the development program will require a total of $3,000,000 from contribution sources in addition to the $3,000,000 already raised in the first phase of the campaign. While I contributed to that first phase and had not thought to contribute again, in view of the circumstances above set forth, I am glad to do so, as I am confident other Alumni will be." Mr. Rockefeller's letter bespoke his willingness to contribute 5000 shares of stock towards the present new campaign for the completion of the Housing and Development Plan. When there has been obtained from other contribution sources, exclusive of his own contribution, a total of $2,000,000 for this same pro- gram and campaign, he agreed to contribute another block of 5000 shares of the same stock. Newspaper stories about the gift noted that Mr. Rockefeller had previously given in the neighborhood of $500,000 during the first campaign period. Half of it came in the first hours of the campaign, the re- mainder when other contributors had given $2,000,000. "It is difficult to convey our deep feeling of appreciation," President Wriston said in comment on the magnificent gift. "The spirit of faith in the ideals and future of Brown which Mr. Rockefeller's letter so powerfully expresses is an inspiration to all of us. His contribution will provide splendid impetus to the campaign. With the incentive provided by this gift and the contributions of the members of the Corporation and Student Housing Board, we are going forward with renewed confidence in our ability to reach our goal." BROWN ALUMNI MONTHLY When Hughes Was an Undergraduate M M BY HENRY M. WRISTON ► ► College students are likely to look upon them- selves as people without sovereignty or power of com- mand, subject to rules and discipline and to curricula. Actually, they have capacity to determine what kind of college theirs is to be, what its qualities, its reputa- tion, its function, and its product. Within their own competence is the determination of the quality of the education they will get. \\e ha\e thought much lately about the under- graduate days of a Brown student who lived a long life and a full one. His days were marked by achieve- ment and fame, but crossed by failure and tragedy. He was as human a man as I ever knew, and yet as great. Charles Evans Hughes entered Brown in September, 1878, as a transfer student from Madison University, which now appears on our football schedule as Col- gate. Back of him was neither wealth nor influence. He came unheralded and unknown ; as the son of a Baptist minister, his financial resources were meager in the extreme. ONE STEP AT A TIME ► He did not come to college with a fixed purpose beyond college itself. It is now standard practice to say that in "the good old days" students had al- ready determined upon careers as ministers, teachers, lawyers, or doctors, and that the liberal arts college was really a direct preparation for professional life. But a study of the curriculum available in 1878 shows that it was poorly adapted to direct vocational ends. Moreover, anyone who knows anything about those professions knows that they are so diverse in their demands that no single curriculum could meet the professional needs of all. An important characteristic of this new student was that he was ready to take one step at a time. He lived from day to day, exemplifying the maxim he must have heard a thousand times in home and church, "Take therefore no thought for the morrow." It did not deeply concern him, so far as the record goes or as he later recounted his college experiences, that he had no vocational objective. He was going to college to get what it had to offer. Then he would do the next thing. He was willing to let time and experience show what the next step was to be. Today we can look at him as any normal undergraduate. He was not a pre-law student or pre-anything else — just a college boy taking life in his stride. It was not until late in his senior year and at the suggestion of a classmate that he turned toward the law. Indeed it was just before Commencement, when, as class prophet, he was writing about the future of his classmates, that he was challenged to say what he would do — and followed the advice of a fellow student. That is only a dramatic example of a vital element in college life then and now. As Hughes, himself, expressed it, "we exerted a strong influence upon each other." \\'ith all the changes that time has brought since 1878 that central fact of college life remains unaltered. Student influence is often far more potent than faculty advice or any other pro- fessional "guidance." AN ACTIVE PARTAKER ► When he came to Brown, the future statesman was only 16 years old, though he had already spent two years in another college. He was tall, and not well developed physically. President Faunce, who was a class ahead, described Hughes as "long, lank, extremely slender." He was never of varsity caliber and could not make a team; but he was interested in athletics and managed the baseball team one season. MR. HUGHES As undergraduate As statesman BROWN ALUMNI MONTHLY BROWN MEN OF THREE GENERATIONS At the 1937 Commence- ment the Chief Justice was speaker at the Al- umni Meeting. Charles Evans Hughes, Jr., '09 received an honorary LL.D. Charles Evans Hughes, 3rd, was a graduating Senior. He was a consistent rooter, and made trips long before the days when hitch-hiking facilitated travel. He followed the team even when the modest cost was a serious drain on his resources. Outside athletics he was a participant in all student activities. He served, as did his son and grandson, on the editorial staff of the student newspaper. What he wrote has been, to some extent at least, identified. It shows him as conforming perfectly to the under- graduate type. He wrote satiric advice to the ne- partment of Buildings and Grounds — good advice, too, which was acted upon a mere 60 years later, to the benefit of us all. He wrote a history of Faculty rules and regulations and offered suggestions for fur- ther change. The greatest reform he advocated — abolition of the grading system — has not yet been achieved. It may come in time. He joined a fraternity and entered actively into its life — forensic and intellectual as well as social. In college — and until the day of his death — he was a good storyteller and could sharpen the point by his hearty and dramatic way of recounting any episode; "he had the reputation of being one of the best wits of the class, and was very quick at repartee." He did not lead his class in scholarship, though his stand- ing was high. He was never a grind in any sense of the word. He took honors and prizes only when it appealed to him to do so, not with the efficient pur- posefulness of the grade-getter. He was the kind of student a teacher likes best — one who does the work for what there is in it, not for the grade or any other reward. THE H.ABIT OF SELF-DISCIPLINE ► What was it, then, that marked this student and made him notable in college long before he attained national and, ultimately, international fame? Three things: the first was rigid self -discipline, a habit that followed him through all the years of his long life. I saw him often when he was Secretary of State. He was the most prompt, devoted, and con- scientious Secretary that we have had in modern times. You could almost set your watch by the time of his arrival at the cold granite structure across Ex- ecutive Avenue from the White House. When he left, he almost always carried a bag full of papers for study at home. He never discussed an issue with a foreign diplomat without having mastered not only the precis prepared by his staff but the entire docu- mentation. It required a prodigious effort and long hours; but he followed the routine without exhaustion, for there was no waste motion. He was Chief Justice when I came to Brown and several times I stayed in his home in Washington when there on University business. During his periods of leisure he was en- tirely relaxed and full of good conversation, but when the appointed time came for him to be at his desk that moment found him at his work and fully ab- sorbed in it. Such habits of self-discipline were only the continuation of methods he followed in college. Most people find it harder to get themselves to work than they do to labor after they start. Many people develop so much internal friction that they work against themselves more than at the job. People think of self-discipline as cramping their style and limiting happiness. Actually self-discipHne is no kill-joy; when well developed it gives a relaxed sense of power and focuses the mind on the instant problem. Concentration, it is called; but that is a poor word to describe efficient mental work. For when people concentrate consciously they are often thinking more about thinking than about the matter in hand. A BROWN ALUMNI MONTHLY better way of describing the characteristic of a dis- cipHned mind is the absence of diffusion — complete escape from self-interruption, physical or mental, emotional or tangible. For Charles Evans Hughes self-discipline had come, through long habit, no longer to require an effort of the will ; on the contrary it released his will to effective constructive effort. When he read his college assign- ments he neither counted the pages nor measured the time, nor was aware of any other thing until the task was done. No one who wastes time has much leisure. The person who learns through consistent self-discip- line to do his work is never too busy; he has leisure for other things. READING AND LEISURE ► Leisure suggests the second dominant character- istic of this student. He had time to spare and he used it for the best of all recreation — intellectual pleasure, emotional interest, broadening his taste, sharpening his perceptions. He read without guid- ance outside of class assignments — omnivorously. He read through most of Dickens while at Brown and told me of the immense enjoyment he had from it. If you have a lively and broad sense of humor, Dickens will delight you; if you have a deep social interest, Dickens will stimulate it; if you want to study human nature, Dickens is a rich mine. Hughes also read Thackeray, Macaulay, Victor Hugo, Emerson, Scott, Hawthorne, and many others. He read on many topics and always with zest. There was nothing of the prig in this wide reading, nothing of self-conscious self-improvement, no effort to learn "how to win friends and influence people," no squirrel-like storing of the mind with treasures. His reading was complete enjoyment of leisure time. Hughes gained much in the classroom, but far be- yond that he made direct acquaintance with the great literature of his day. Thus he acquired vicarious experience upon which he was able to draw through- out his life. He did not have to grope through every problem himself and learn every lesson first hand; he could recall the issues and situations historical and fictional characters had faced before and he knew the consequences of their choices. HIS FABULOUS MEMORY ► There was a third characteristic of this youth- ful scholar which will make him seem almost as grim as the rigid self-discipline and the rich use of leisure time. He was not contemptuous of his memory. Recently it has been fashionable to admire "memory" from the grandstand. Many think dreamily how wonderful it would be to know all that John Kieran knows, but remain contemptuous of the process by which such omniscience in sports, poetry, natural history, and other fields is acquired. Some people have natural gifts of memory, but there is no aspect of the intellectual life which so repays cultivation. The effort of memory is painful at first, but if the effort is long pursued it can produce a memory so muscular that remembering is as easy as breathing. When I was a very 3'oung historian, a young mathe- matician made sport of me because I had to memorize so many dates. He said he would never adopt a vocation which drew so heavily upon the powers of memory. Whereupon he became a stockbroker and has had to recall from day to day, month to month, and year to year the quotations of many stocks, the highs and lows, the yield, the history of many com- panies, the nature of their management — a welter of data which makes the memory task of the historian seem relatively simple by comparison. W'hat Charles Evans Hughes studied, he remem- bered ; what he read for pleasure in his leisure moments he was able to recall without effort. Over the years he cultivated that faculty. On one occasion when he was in private practice, during the interim between his two periods of service on the Supreme Court, I heard him argue before that body. His opponent — a former Attorney General of the United States — had copious notes and many assistants. Mr. Hughes spoke without a paper before him; quoted at length; gave citations by case, volume, and page. He did it unerringly, without strain or obvious effort. When I came to Brown he spoke at the W'ashington Alumni Dinner in March and agreed to give the same speech at Commencement in June. At that time he spoke from this platform and with no manuscript repeated the speech word for word. In the midst of one of the most exacting, time-consuming, and exhausting jobs in the United States it seemed as nothing for him to commit to memory an address that took half an hour to deliver. THE TEACHERS OF HIS DAY ► While Hughes was at Brown he had great teach- ers. He said of them, "I could ask no greater priv- ilege for any college student than to come under the direct guidance and inspiration of such men." Presi- dent Robinson he called "majestic and severe" — "the embodiment of the moral law" — and as a dis- ciplinarian, "terrifying." "If I learned to know the President well, I had the fear he knew me better." But as a teacher, who despised cant and hated sham, Robinson "shook ^outh out of carelessness and in- difference into a realization of individual responsibility and power; the student went forth from his instruc- tion with a new birth of purpose and courage." John Lewis Diman, Professor of History and Polit- ical Economy, "stimulated (his students) to the highest pitch of effort and heroic endeavors in in- dividual research." John Larkin Lincoln's liveliness of spirit and personal charm made him in the deepest sense of the word a teacher of the humanities. Albert Harkness, whose "Latin Grammar" was a work of art, will always be remembered as a teacher whose precise and exact scholarship, whose insistence upon the discipline of precision, whose sense of proportion, and whose grace and finish of style made him out- standing. Hughes fully acknowledged the influence of these and others upon him. But they would have been the first to have said that the boy with such powers of self-discipline, with such zest for intellectual life, with such breadth of horizon in interest and activity, and with such faith in the enjoyment and utility of memory contributed more to the University than he took away from it. That was indeed the case even while he was an undergraduate. It was yet more notable throughout his long career. As the great reform investigator of the insurance companies, as Governor of New York, as Justice of the Supreme Court, as Secretary of State, and finally as Chief Justice, he reflected credit upon this University. The dividends through 70 years upon Brown's investment BROWN ALUMNI MONTHLY of buildings and endowments and teachers in his de- velopment repaid the University a thousandfold. As a student Hughes was not a subject, he was a predicate. He was not inert material upon which the F"aculty labored; in word and act he was the affirmation of the real college. As an undergraduate he was human, joyous, natural, never stilted or self- conscious, but deeply intellectual, broadly cultural in his interests. Through college and in after years he ganed by the accretions of memory and by the de- velopment of his reasoning powers an intellectual stature so towering that no statesman with whom he came in contact could surpass him. And his whole personality was strengthened by tough moral fiber. He could not speak an equivocal word; no one could doubt that he meant what he said and said what he meant. During the long period of public service his moral character was in all respects, public and private, without "variableness, neither shadow of turning." THE 1916 ELECTION ► Not everything Hughes did was successful, and he met with stubborn opposition. He was a man as sensitive as any you could find. At least two Presi- dents of the United States did their best to make him miserable, but no one could tell it from his appearance or actions. In the great battle over the Supreme Court, he not only maintained silence but carried his burden with stoic calm — at disastrous cost to his health. He met with disappointments, for he went to bed in November of 1916 with his election to the presi- dency announced by most leading dailies and woke up in the morning to find that a handful of votes in California had lost him that great office. Within a year of his death he talked the whole episode over with me in the calm of retrospection. Everything he said showed that he had kept the experience in right perspective from the day it happened, and as long as he lived. He met that stunning disappoint- ment not only with good temper but with generosity; for he lent strong support to the man who had de- feated him. Some of the things he did most successfully turned to ashes. The Washington Conference was as bril- liant a maneuver as can be found in modern diplomatic history; yet it did not ultimately prevent war with Japan or lead to the lasting peace for which he labored. But I never heard him express a word of regret for the effort he had made. He had done his best and was willing to take the verdict of history upon that effort. His life was shadowed with sorrow when illness and death invaded his family. Those who knew him best realized how much family meant, how strong were the ties. But the observer saw more of grati- tude for lives he had shared than repining at their loss. Charles Evans Hughes was a man among men, who could tell a story with the gusto and liveliness of a great actor, but his public behavior showed a dignity befitting public responsibility. He had as human and attractive a personality as ever held itself in leash in the discharge of public duties. He was innately modest. After he retired I urged him, as did many another, to write his memoirs. His answer was al- ways that memoirs tend to employ hindsight to put the best face on the author's own efforts and discount the achievements of his opponents. It was better, he felt, to leave judgment to the impartial historian and the verdict to time. Whatever place is accorded him in history, the roots of his greatness were nurtured on this campus in college days. If today this University has a group of students with like self-discipline, and similar in- tellectual drive, with equal breadth of taste and in- terest, with comparable zest for life, its fame will run the country over and its future will be ensured. And if you learn self-discipline, the rich use of leisure, and the delights of a trained mind, you will take from this Hill a real education. .4 RT. REV. RICHARD S. EMRICH '32, Ph. D., S. T.

The year 1951 will see the student population in the College down to a postwar normal of 2000, President Wriston said in his report to the University Corporation on Oct. 16. Enrollment shrinkage is "extremely une\-en," he said, because "the great pressure from the veterans has not yet been relieved. The present Junior Class in the College has 1035 students and the Senior Class has 552." The Veterans College, established to handle the rush of veterans to the campus, "has ceased to exist as a separate organization," the President pointed out. "There are no separate classes, no way to dis- tinguish those with Veterans College status from ordinary College students, except for administrative purposes. There are only 23 in the Freshman year and 15 in the Sophomore year." This year's enroll- ment of 3253 includes the veterans absorbed into the regular College on the basis of proven ability to do the work. The work of the Veterans College students, their evidence of maturity and high motivation to suc- ceed, led to a higher level of academic achievement than could have been predicted, Dr. Wriston added. Fred B. Perkins '19, Secretary of the Corporation, also praised the bold move as an outstanding experi- ment in higher education. He said that Brown had done everything in its power to make college entrance possible for Rhode Island veterans who were properly qualified. Brourri Football Over WHIM, Et Al. ► All nine of Brown's 1948 Varsity football games are being broadcast this fall, under the continuing sponsorship of the Atlantic Refining Company. All games are on the air over Station WHIM in Provi- dence (1110 kc), while the schedule of other outlets varies with the location of the game and the opposition. All kickoffs are at 2:00, with the exception of the 11 o'clock start of the Thanksgiving morning game with Colgate. Broadcasts usually include preliminaries before the actual opening whistle. The broadcast schedule for the last four games of the season is as follows: Oct. 30, Rutgers — WHIM Providence, WWCO \\'aterbury. Nov. 6, Western Reserve— WHIM. Nov. 13, Harvard— WHDH Bos- ton, WACE Chicopee, WHIM Providence, WICC Bridgeport, WKXL Concord, N. H., WSAR Fall River, WNOC Norwich, Conn. Nov. 25, Colgate— WHIM. ^ Coronet's Portrait of U. H. ► We hope you did not miss a stunning set of color photographs in the September issue of Coronet Maga- zine. "Here is the Ivy League," said the introduc- tion, "living symbol of all that has made American education the envy of the world. From these eight schools in the Northeast, U. S. A., men have gone out, fired by a devotion to learning, to found new colleges across all America." "This vital part of your Amer- ican heritage," the magazine called Yale, Dartmouth, Cornell, Pennsylvania, Princeton, Harvard, Columbia, and Brown. The photo which represented Brown was a mag- nificent twilight shot which caught the quality of a lighted University Hall and a benignant Manning framed in spring elms. Of Brown, the accompanying text had gratifying things to say: "The smallest of all the Ivy League schools... has achieved a unique dis- tinction by combining the advantages of a small college with those of a large university. In an at- mosphere where the dedication to study is far more prevalent than that devoted to social activity, the 2000 students of Brown bend their best eiTorts to the mastery of the college's superior liberal arts program. It is a college policy, based on a longstanding con- viction that the best education is the result of close contact and co-operation between student and in- structor..." 4 Alumni Headliners -^ Fretwell Named Chief Scout ► The Boy Scouts of America have a new Chief Scout, Dr. Elbert K. Fretwell, who received his A.M. from Brown in 1905 as one of the three "Missouri musketeers" in the Graduate School that year. One of the pioneers in Scouting, he became Chief Scout Executive in 1943 and on Sept. 1 took office as Chief Scout. Since 1917 he had been a member of the Na- tional Council and, since 1933, of the National Ex- ecutive Board He served as chairman of the Com- mittee on Education and the Program Divisional Committee, with a primary interest in training Scout leaders.

Hailer, Jr., '48 will be only 25 when he takes office in the Massachusetts State Legislature. He won out in the primaries for Demo- cratic Representative from Ward l9 of Suffolk County, a victory tantamount to election in a district heavily Democratic in the past. This Brunonian, who com- pleted requirements for his A.B. degree only this summer, will be the youngest member of the Legis- lature. ^ COL. HENRY R.

Curtis '07, President of the Cleveland Brown Club, to be Director of Engin- eering and a member of the company's Board of Di- rectors. Mr. Curtis joined the company's engineering staff in 1940 and was active on its planning committee to guide a program of product development. He is regarded as largely responsible for the development of the Sulzer weaving machine He has been Assist- ant Director of Engineering since 1945. Mr. Curtis was for 25 years with Potter & Johnston Machine Company in Pawtucket, resigning as Vice- President and Director in 1939 to head the Shell Lathe Development Program undertaken jointly by the National Machine Tool Builders' Association and the Army Ordnance Department. 4 Mutuars Neiv Vice-President ► Linus Travers '27 took ofifice Nov. 1 as a Vice- President of Mutual Broadcasting System, of which he has been a Director for some time. He will con- centrate especially on programs and sales, said a joint announcement by Mutual and the Yankee Network. Travers has been E.xecutive Vice-President and General Manager of the Yankee Network and will continue as a member of its Board of Directors. He will continue, too, to represent Yankee, a 20% stock- holder in Mutual, on the Mutual Board of Trustees. Travers has been prominent in Brown alumni affairs, served Boston and New York Brown Clubs as speaker or toastmaster at annual dinners, and is a member of the Board of Directors of the Associated Alumni and the Board of Editors of this magazine. He has been in radio since his undergraduate days, hired professionally after a Brown \'arsity debate which was the first ever broadcast by any college. •^ Silex Chooses Chick ► The Silex Company has a new President, Louis S. Chick '22, who this fall took over the management of the company's manufacturing operations. He succeeds Frank E. Wolcott, who has become Chair- man of the Board, with sales responsibilities. Chick, who rose in the Boston organization of Lever Brothers from what he termed "a minor job in the sales depart- ment" to manager of the Edible Division, has most recently been in New York (since 1947) as sales pro- motion manager of the Grocery Division of Standard Brands. Silex, which has coffee makers and electric irons in its line, speaks of Chick as "admirably qual- ified" to be its President. < The Accolade of Greece ► King Paul of Greece has presented a Distin- guished Service Medal to Col. Augustus J. Regnier '22 "for valuable and inestimable services to Greece and her army." The presentation was made at the royal palace in Athens in October.. Col.

During \\'orld War H he was a regimental commander in the 71st Infantry Division for 14 months in the European theatre. He is a graduate of the U. S. Military Academy to which he transferred after starting his college education at Brown. ■^ LINUS TRAVERS '27, new Vice-President of the Mutual Broadcasting System. Walling^ s Advice to Labor *' Labor must clean its own house if it is to regain popular support, L. Metcalfe Walling '30 declared in the principal address of a Labor Day celebration in Providence. He saw Labor making the same mistakes Business had made earlier when the public put it in the "doghouse." Walling was formerly State Director of Labor for Rhode Island and under Secretary Perkins was Federal Wage-Hour Adminis- trator. The New York lawyer was also administrator of the Fair Labor Standards Act in 1942 and, in all, has spent 15 years in intimate contact with Labor and industrial problems, most of the time in important governmental capacities. •^ Adult Education at St. Johns ► John Gardner Gkeene '26 has begun his duties as Director of Adult Education at St. John's College, Annapolis, Md.

'^ Oriental Royalty at Brown ^ Prince Prem Purachatra of Siam, cousin of the King, and the Princess visited Brown in October and saw their first game of American football. Their es- corts were Profs. Charles A. Smiley and Carl W. Miller, who met the Prince last summer while in Siam with the National Geographic Society's solar eclipse party. < BROWN ALUMNI MONTHLY Small Talk ► ► BRUNO I X, the current bear-cub mascot of the Brown football team, is one of the cutest rascals we've ever seen and already an accomplished showman. His little book of press clippings was getting fat on his early fall exploits, and so was he. Although his first hours in Providence weren't too happy (they had to rub his stomach all night because of an acute candy indigestion), he soon adjusted him- self to crowds, band music, cheers, and 20th Century travel in its various mani- festations. At New Haven he made a few passes at the bulldog in front of the Brown stands, to the delight of all. Across the field, the dog took the play away before his own partisan audience, barking belligerently but momentarily. Each was bored with the other by the time cameras could be brought into play. That night, however, Bruno had himself a time — in the New Haven jail, of all places. The Brown Key-men who are his managers wanted some leisure before the trip home, and a cell in the jail seemed the only likely place to leave the cub. He became the law's prisoner, unbooked. In the next cell, however, was a drunk who screamed for help every time the bear poked a paw through. To Princeton Bruno journeyed by air, as baggage. It seems he was the only animal the line had carried, except for President Roosevelt's dog once. He was well-behaved baggage and only 20 pounds over the 40 allowed the official passenger. Next week there was some talk of landing him on Brown Field in a helicopter, but the Key instead asked the Fire Chief of Providence for a ride on a truck. "Heck, no," said the Chief. "This is Fire-Pre- vention Week: you'll have a hook and ladder." And so he arrived with the firefighters, climbed a high extension lad- der up to a dummy Ram, which he de- molished happily. It seems he'll climb anywhere to get his ration of honey or a bunch of grapes, which he eats with a daintiness that Mae West would en\y. (Incidentally, the Brown Key would be glad to have any spare dollars to finance Bruno's junkets.) ► Someone spread talk about a Pembroke graduate living in one of the men's dorms this fall, but before the Dean really went to work on the case he remembered that one of the newcomers to Brown is a grad- uate student who has a degree from Pem- broke College — in England, at Cambridge. ► The Freshman Week committee really had a program to sell this year. They were working on one of the new students during the Faunae House check-in: "How about going on the weekend outing at Camp Yawgoog?" "Can't. Sorr>'." "We've chartered busses to take every- body to New Haven — 10 busses for Brown Freshmen, five for Pembroke Freshmen, two for the band, and a sound-truck. Want to go?" "No, sorry. Can't." "Going down some other way? You'll still want your ticket to the game." "Hell's bells, no, mister. I've got to stay handy. My wife's pregnant." ► One of the evenings of Freshman Week was called Campus Night, when the Class of 1952 heard about campus traditions and folklore from the Editor and asked representatives about the various under- graduate activities. For example, a Freshman inquired how he could go out for the Herald. "Show up next Thursday night," he was told. "We'll have a smoker and tell you about the Herald." The Yacht Club? About a week after College started there would be an open house down at the Seekonk where they could hear all about last year's national champions. Just come to the smoker. Debating? The Ivy League champions would have a smoker early in October. The Liber and the Camera Club were go- ing to have smokers, too. There was a question about Sock and Buskin, and the representative took it downstage center. "I suppose," he said, "I suppose we ought to have a tea." In the bookstore we couldn't help notic- ing how much textbooks have improved since we were in school. They really invite you to read. But we noticed you could spend $30 on books for a single course in one or two instances. We found very plausible, under the cir- cumstances, the storj- Manager Bob Harwood '44 told us about the Freshman who asked him what course had the cheap- est books. There is still such a thing as a second-hand book, of course. And one of the girls in a Pembroke Record cartoon this fall says to her friend: "I've been buying all my books from Brown men, but so far all I have for my efforts is Books!" In The Office Mail SIR: This morning the postman de- livered my copy of the Brown University Record Album of Songs, and I haven't been so pleased with anything since I received my first stuffed animal one Christmas a long time ago. I have, how- ever, one complaint which I feel will be the universal reaction to this splendid album. ...it just isn't long enough. I feel that if some sort of poll were taken you might find that a goodly number of former Brown men would be only too willing to subscribe to a series of like works. I'm certain that I shall pur- chase any and every record that the University Glee Club will make in the future. Things like this record album do more for the Brown spirit than all of the Rah Rah Rah'sand Ki-Yi-Yi'sthat can be shouted within the span of a full year. MALCOLM I. SEGUINE '48 New York * • * SIR; When I opened the October issue of the MONTHLY and saw the headline "What kind of a University Is Brown?" I was shocked. I thought it was an editorial caption, but when I saw it was a quotation of the opening paragraph of an article by the Vice-President of the LTni- versity I was even more shocked. About the turn of the century John Wanamaker decided to replace the old freight station, in which he started his business in 1876, and the many unsightly additions with a block-size modern build- ing. This was done while business con- tinued as usual. When the work was completed and the various departments were in their places, a great banner was hung where it met the eye, reading "A New Kind of a .Store." So great was the clamor of the citizenry and the press, heaping ridicule upon it that it was soon taken down and the offending "a" re- moved. 10 Let the German have his "was fur ein," but let us not overwork the first letter of our alphabet. EDWIN STANLEY THOMPSON '86 The Roost, Bristol, Pa. * • * SIR: When I went to Brown, the "Eng- lish" were emphatic: there can be only one kind (or one sort) of thing. How in damnation hell, then, can there be more than one kind of Brown? According to your headline, it seems that our genial \'ice-President has other ideas. HEINIE ELROD '07 (We still believe Brown has the right kind of Vice-President and hope he can be per- suaded again to contribute the sort of an article he did — Ed.) * • • SIR: My associates and I were flattered to see Tibi Solemniter Trado break into print in the Alumni Monthly and retro- spectively approve your editorial amend- ments. A slight complaint was made the other evening that the Faculty had been slighted. This was corrected as follows: And now here come the Professors, This day the most gaudy of dressers. All duly appointed, They're thereby anointed Brunonia's sanctified guessers. Hoping you are the same, R. T. C. * * * SIR: You're quite right, 'Ninety-Niner, about the lack of news of Pembroke in the BROWN ALUMNI MONTHLY. Why shouldn't there be a combine be- tween the Brown Alumni Monthly and the Pembroke Newsletter? Call it the Brown Alumni and Alumnae Monthly.

He was a good center, but so were John Scott and Ed Kiely good centers. Condon was getting a little tired of being groomed more as a specialist, perhaps, a guy who trotted out to kick a point after touch- down or do other indicated booting as he did last year so successfully. But Joe played ball and practiced faithfully the week of Sept. 27, kicking placement after placement day after day from all distances and all angles. That was groundwork for being a hero, for Joe Condon measured 31 yards on the Palmer Stadium at Princeton the next Saturday and won a thrilling game with a field goal just six seconds before the end. It was only one incident, of course, and Brown football follow^ers have been get- ting their rewards this fall. The season couldn't have started on a worse note than it did when the opening kickoflf was fumbled at Yale. Two fumbles meant two Vale touchdowns, and the Brown team just didn't get out of the deep, deep hole, although a valiant try was made. The Yale game went 28-13, although Brown moved up to only a 14-13 deficit. Princeton, too, seemed on the way to victory a week later, leading 13-0 near the close of the first half and again 20-7 with 11 minutes remaining. But the Bruins fought back amazingly to stun the Tiger stands with a 23-20 triumph. In the third game Rhode Island was an easy victim, 33-0, in a game cut short six min- utes by way of merciful accommodation. Holy Cross was beaten 14-6 with statist- ical conviction but great delay, although Brown was playing at its best. Yale 28, Brown 13 ► Badly off balance in the opening minutes of the game at New Haven, Brown just couldn't overcome the presentation touchdowns accorded the opposition in the first period. Joe Paterno, off to a good return of the first kickoff, fumbled after a lusty dumping, and Yale recovered on our 25. Yale, too, fumbled, but made a recovery and a first down on the same play. A fourth down pass caught the secondary drawn out of position, and it was a touchdown item. Yale 7, Brown 0. Another fumble after Brown took the of- fensive gave the Elis possession on our 41. Jackson turned on the talent from there for a second score. He was brilliant all day, gaining more yardage than he had in the entire 1947 season. But Brown got up off the turf. End Mahoney and Halfback Nelson, the latter an old receiver of Finn's, began catching his passes, and Chuck took one for 53 yards and a touchdown. Later, Mahoney took another for 34 yards to the Yale 11 but no farther. The attack was clicking, even though Kozak's broken nose took him out of the lineup in the first period, but penalties for illegal use of hands (not clipping, as the public announcer persisted in misinterpreting the officials' signal) were costly. It wasn't just the 60 yards paced off in fines but about 100 yards of gains which were also nullified. Still, our line was being outcharged, and our end play showed lack of game experience on Yale's sweeps and reverses. Right after the half Brown marched 80 yards in 10 plays, with Green scoring as the Bruins drew up to 14-13. But Jackson figured in two more touchdowns for Yale on brilliant efforts, and the game was gone. Yale had 13 first downs to Brown's 11, netted 291 yards rushing to Brown's 134. Brown had two passes intercepted, completed nine of 19 for 182 yards. ■^ Brown 23, Princeton 20 ► The Script was harrowing but swell. Princeton appeared to have a decisive edge, leading 20-7, even without Sella's 78-yard run which would have been an- other touchdown but for a clip. The Tigers' third touchdown had come in three minutes of the second half on an 80-yard punt return by the same Sella, and it looked like the second unhappy Saturday in a row. But Brown's defense tightened, after a Princeton interception on our 32, and the roused Bear took to the offense. An advance to the Tiger 40, a coffin- corner kick to the six by Kozak, and a Tiger fumble gave us our chance. In five plays it was 20-14, but time was running out in the fourth quarter. From the 20, Brown moved again, with a Joe Paterno runback of 16, a Finn pass to George Paterno for 34, and an unbelievable catch of another by Altieri was good for 30. The last made it 20-20, for Kozak missed the conversion. Luck seemed too good to be true when Princeton fumbled the next kickoff, but Team of the Week ► C. E. McBride of the Kansas City Star agrees that Brown was definitely one of the "Teams of the Week" when it upset Princeton. On Oct. 12 he made a "belated addi- tion" to his Oct. 2 list. He said: "Andrew H. Comstock, a Brown University man, writes to say he likes the idea of a Teams of the Week Column, but he doesn't understand how we could have missed that Brown 23, Princeton 20 game. Well, neither do we, and so belatedly we toss it in. ..Without question that game belonged. We simply overlooked it, and it's fun to make amends as suggested by a sportsman who writes in a vein quite different from many football partisans when they feel their alma mater has been slighted." The correspondent, we surmise, was the son of Andrew B. Com- stock '10. Our K. C. clipper was Gordon Milne '41, of the University of Kansas City faculty. Incident- ally, the incident shows what an individual of good will can do to assist locally in the problem of Brown athletic publicity. The University and the press services provide the material, but whether it is used or not is often within the power of the home town man to influence. ■^ after our recovery on their 21, a pass was intercepted on the Princeton seven. Aware of the possibility of another fumble or a safety, and gambling on a Brown error at midfield, the Princeton play-caller voted for a punt, declining to use up the scant time with the obvious routine of line-bucks. Thus, the ball having changed hands four times on three plays, Brown received on Princeton's 41. As the Tiger set up its defenses against passes, with two minutes left, Finn mixed in a couple of running plays with two aerial completions, but it was 16 to the goal with seconds left when Brown sent in Condon. The substitution meant a five-yard penalty, but that was incidental. Perhaps Princeton recalled that a fake kick and pass had beaten Yale last year in a similar situation; at any rate, the line charge was more hesitant this time. Con- don had plenty of time to give the ball the distance it needed for its 41-yard flight. Our most vivid recollection of the game is of the silent, frozen mass of stunned Princeton rooters across the way just then. "Triumph" is used so loosely in sports writing that it no longer has the exultant quality that used to be implicit in the word. We're sorry, for this was really a triumph. Outmanned Brunonians lost possession of the shattered goalposts, but we'd settle for that any time. Each team made eight first downs. Brown netted 133 yards rushing, Prince- ton 181. Brown passed 19 times, caught nine, for 225 yards. Some of the early game detail was interesting, though _ later obscured: After the opening kickoff Brown made a first down and fumbled. Five plays later Princeton scored. It looked that easy, as Wagner went 46 yards off tackle. George Paterno had a clear field for a touchdown when Finn passed from our 12 on third down, only to be hauled down from behind on the 25. The threat died on the 16. After the Nassau men went 61 yards for a second touchdown, a Finn-Nelson pass went 57 yards to score. Another threat died on the Princeton 20 as the half ended. <4 Broivn 33, Rhode Island ► There was plenty of bad football lying around loose when Brown beat the Ram, but there was enough that was good to build up the score, even though every reserve on the bench had his chance to play and the last two quarters were cut to 12 minutes each by agreement. Rhode Island provided the first thrill when Vento ran from his 34 to Brown's 10, right from scrimmage only to be overtaken by Jim DiDomenico. At the end of the first per- iod. Young scored from the R. I. 48 on a cutback. The second period brought another Rhody threat, which reached the Brown 17. Joe Paterno intercepted a pass from that line, ran it back to the 44. Two Finn-Nelson passes did the rest. The third touchdown was set up by a blocked punt, after which State kicked again from its two, Joe Paterno returning it to the 22. Roger Young scored again after a series of plays, from the five. State approached once more but Brown scored twice. First downs: Brown 13. R. I. 7. Brown's net on rushing was 190 to 144 and 82 yards on passes to 42, with each intercepting three forwards. ^ 12 BROWN ALUMNI MONTHLY TWO ELEVENS and more make a Varsity team this fall as offensive and defense talents are stressed. Some of Brown's 1948 regulars posed with the big Kodiak bear which the alumni from the Middle West were to present Oct. 15. The plavers: Hill (75), Scott (56), Kiely (55), DeAngelis (64), lacuele (69), Walters (73), Colo (76), Chernak (60), Smith (84), Mahoney (86), Thompson (89), McLellan (71), Searles (82), Green (38), Young (48), George Paterno (24), Kozak (44), Nelson (26), Joe Paterno (36), Hodosb (65), Finn (50), and Rodewig (12). (Henderson Photo.) Brawn 14, Holy Cross 6 ► The suspense lay, not in any offensive gestures by Holy Cross, but whether Brown's immense statistical advantage and obviously superior play would over- come a first period touchdown scored on a blocked kick. In the whole first half, the Crusaders had the ball in Brown terri- tory just once and that was when Kelleher raced in from end to smear Pastuszak's kick and down the ball behind the goal- line. The six-point margin held up, even though Brown outgained the Cross 220 yards to 56. There were sallies to the Cross three-yard line, the 33, and the five in the first half, but no marbles. Even a Condon try for a field goal missed. In the third period, however, Arnold Green scored before a home-town Worcester crowd, having been stopped just one inch shy on the previous attempt. Condon's conversion was sweet to see. In the final quarter Brown gained insurance on Colo's fumble recovery and a steady 36-yard move in 12 plays. DiDomenico scored from two inches out, making a total of three inches and 12 points on two plays. The previous week Holy Cross had fallen for trap plays all afternoon, and Coach Osmanski knew it. It seemed unlikely that the bait would continue to work, but Brown employed twice as many traps and just as successfully. The first downs were 18 for Brown against four, the rushing net 254 against 80, and three passes clicked for 90 more. There was not a Brown fumble all day. Using an occasional 4-4-1-2 defense as well as the five and six-man lines, Brown kept the Crusader attack in check all day. Late in the third quarter Connolly of the Cross broke away for 34 yards, being overtaken by Walters on Brown's 36. This was the only time the Crusaders moved into Brown territory all day under their own steam. Brennan of the Purple had com- pleted half his passes in previous games, but not against Brown. Dick Harlow, former Harvard coach, had a big assist in the box score on this 13 game, for Rip Engle's old teacher had scouted Holy Cross and will look in on other opponents, Harvard excepted, in the interest of Brown victories. Harlow is keeping his hand in just as a hobby, but he certainly brought in a useful scout- ing report on this one. Despite its failure to score more often, Brown's play was the most consistent of the year, even though Finn's passing lacked its usual accuracy. In the line the traps were en- ticing and true, and blocks were rockers. Brown was without lacuele, captain, out for the year (his last) following a knee injury in the State game. Kozak was in the infirmary with the grippe, and Nelson was so far below par that he was hauled down after taking a pass in the clear. But the depth of the Brown squad showed itself in unmistakable fashion. The game marked a 50th anniversary between the two schools in football, and it was their 25th meeting. Each had previgusly won 12 games and tied once. < BROWN ALUMNI MONTHLY ► As ONE RECALLS last year's lapses, the most amazing thing about Brown's half- season record of three out of four has been the potency of its pass defense. On Oct. 21 the National Collegiate .Athletic Bureau released official statistics which showed Brown to lead e\ery other college team in the country in pass defense, yield- ing only 32.3 yards a game against pretty reputable opposition. Vale completed four of 10 passes for 47 yards; Princeton two out of four for 18 yards; Rhode Is- land three of 10 for 42; and Holy Cross five of 11 for 22. That's 14 out of 25 in all, for 129 yards. Seven interceptions were made. On the offensive side of the aerial game. Brown has also, although not unexpected- ly, put on a formidable show. In late October the Bears were ranked 15th nationally in pass offense, with 26 of 59 tries successful for a game average of 147.3 yards and a total of 589 yards in four encounters. Earlier, after the Yale and Princeton games. Brown was fourth high- est passing team in the country, having completed 18 of 38 for a .474 average and 209 yards per game. At that point Ed Finn, the Bear's ace passer, rated 12th in the nation in individual total offense, having gained 314 yards in 30 plays in two games. Six of the 11 players above him in the figuring had played three games. ^ The Freshman Team ► Rhode Island State Freshmen, three times winners, had the edge on experience as the Brown Cubs opened their season, but were short on manpower. After three scoreless periods, the Brunonians drove their visitors back into their half of the field, took over on Rhody's 35 and Dick Brown from Melrose, Mass., scored from the three-yard line after a combination of running plays and a 15-yard penalty. A second tally came when DiMott broke into the clear and romped 37 yards. Brown had seven first downs against one, gaining 195 yards to 65. Neither club had its passes in hand. The score: Brown Fresh- men 14, R. I. Freshmen 0. The Bruins fielded a starting eleven composed of 10 boys from Massachusetts and one from Rhode Island: Ends — Bob McConnell (190) from Newton Centre; Jim White (175) from Melrose. Tackles- Doug Randlett (215) from Brookline and Bob Macko (202) from Greenfield. Center — Bill Sexton (195) from Brookline. Backs — Tom Sheehan (160) from Saugus, Dick Brown (170) from Melrose, Jack Sarson (180) from Brockton, and Jim Martland (186) from Newport. ^ The Junior Varsity ► The Jayvees, their game with Yale cancelled, opened at West Point on a slop- py, stormy field and played a closer game than the 21-0 score would indicate. The club was at an obvious disadvantage under the weather conditions. A second defeat came at the hands of Tufts, 25-14, with penalties proving costly. Trailing 25-8 in the fourth period, the Bears rallied gamely. Palizza passed to Tom Ornisby for a 68-yard touchdown play, and time ran out with Brown menacing from the three-yard line, when a jump-pa.ss just failed to go all the way. M League Soccer ► The Brown soccer team won two of its first three encounters this fall, splitting even in the two games that were scheduled 2nd Generation Center ► A NEWCOMER to the Varsity foot- ball squad this fall is Ted Eckstein '51. A promising candidate in the center spot, he not only has three strong veterans from last season to contend with but also the reputation of his famous father, cited in the Yale game program: "A unanimous choice for the center of the line on any All-Time Brown Team would be Adolph Eckstein '25, star of two decades ago.. ..A fine passer and an excellent defensive player, he was especially noted for clearing a way for any Bruin ball carrier who broke through the line." Injuries kept Ted from playing with the Freshmen last fall. He is 18 years old, six feet tall, and 195 pounds in weight. He prepared for Brown in his home town at Moses Brown School. ^ in the reorganized Eastern Intercollegiate Soccer League. Princeton was beaten 1-0 on Dave Michael's score, but a feature was Scheffer's daring play as goalie. Brown missed other scoring opportunities and dominated the afternoon generally with its stout defense. The University of Massachusetts was beaten conclusively 5-0 but Dartmouth won a league game 2-1, shutting out Brown until late in the game when Bellows tallied. The squad did not benefit from a nine-hour bus ride, much of it over half-constructed roads, and highlighted by a blowout. Other games on the 1948 schedule were to be the following: Oct. 23 — Navy at Annapolis. Oct. 27 — University of Con- necticut at Storrs. Oct. 30 — Wesleyan. Nov. 3— Vale at New Haven. Nov. 10— M. I. T. Nov. 13 — Harvard at Cambridge. Joe Kennaway, international goalie, is again coaching the Bruins. The Freshmen beat New Bedford Voca- tional 2-0 and Worcester Academy 2-1 in their first engagements. They also play Bradford Durfee, Tufts, Nichols, M. I. T., and Harvard. -4 Hill and Dale ► Cross-co; NTRY is on the books in earnest this fall, with Brown fielding its strongest squad in years. The first vic- tim was Connecticut, 21-36, when the three Bears, Jon and Josh Tobey and Welchi led the pack home. Jon and Josh ' kept the honors in the family by joining hands 40 yards from the finish and scored in a tie. That kept the judges from hav- ing to distinguish one twin from the other. Roy Bailey of Brown was si.xth and Chris Edwards ninth. Although Ed DeMarrais finished first in the run against Mt. Pleasant High, the Freshmen dropped that one but came back against a combined team of Con- necticut Freshmen and Jayvees to win 25-30. DeMarrais again was the first home. ^ Later Scores Varsity Football — Brown 49, Connecti- cut 6. Javvee Football — Brown 32, Boston Univ. 0. Freshman Football — New Hampshire 8, Brown 6.

With the Brown Clubs < < ► ► The BUSIEST and most effective alumni year in Brown history would seem to be in prospect on the basis of reports of early Brown Club activity which have reached this magazine from' the faithful Secretaries the country over. Prominent are descriptions of the send- offs given to members of the Class of 1952 from such communities as Chicago, New York, Hartford, and New Haven, a wel- come which many fathers shared as affiliate friends of Brown. Others took account of the football season with several gatherings tied in with Brown games out of town. All were busy with plans for the year ahead and programs to enlist the interest of every available alumnus and undergraduate. ► ► Reports will just have to pend on what a number of the Brown Clubs did between the day we provided the printer with his copy and the time you read this issue. For example, we'll have no story on the Plainfield alumni rally on Oct. 29, the night before the Rutgers football game. Secretary Joseph K. Burwell '13 of the Plainfield Area Section of Brown Alumni wrote Oct. 10: "The Brown football team will stay at the Park Hotel in Plainfield, and we are having the get-together with the players and coaches right there. Alex- ander L. Logan '42, chairman of the Program Committee, has been doing a 14 fine job in making the arrangements, and we hope to have a big attendance of Brown men, not only from the Plainfield area but from all North-Central New Jersey." The Mid-Hudson Brown Club had a spaghetti dinner as its attraction Oct. 19, with Robert Golrick '47 in charge of ar- rangements for the affair at the Covered Wagon (Poughkeepsie, N. Y.). William Tate '48, Director of Student Activities, was to speak. The Club had its second annual trek to the Yale game, without a victory to reward it as in 1947 when Presi- dent VVilliam Howard Young '16 insti- tuted the custom. Fall River's first Brown gathering this year was scheduled for Oct. 20 at the Hotel Mellon, when Dean Arnold, Wil- liam B. McCormick, Alumni Executive Officer, Assistant Athletic Director Ernie Savignano, Dr. Albert Thomas '08 of the Board of Fellows, and Bill McLellanof the Brown football team were a delegation from Providence. Notices for the meeting were signed by President Arthur C. Dur- fee '22. Other dates on our Club book were: Boston — Prof. Herbert Couch of the Classics Department as speaker Oct. 11; North Shore (Mass.)— Prof. Charles Smiley to talk on his Siam expedition, Oct. 29; Washington — Paul Mackesey to feature an athletic evening, Oct. 28; Baltimore — Monthly dinner, Oct. 21. 4 BROWN ALUMNI MONTHLY Four on the Road ► ► Foi'R Admissions ( )i' ficers from Brown will build up inipressi\e mileage in the next tew months tluring visits to sec- ondary schools throughout the country, coast to coast. In addition to their mis- sion of talking with prospective Brown students, they hope to meet with alumni in many cities en route. Most comprehensive trip of all will be that of Dean Emery R. Walker, Jr., '39, who leaves Providence No\'. 11 on a tour that will take him eventually to California. In mid-November he will visit Milwaukee, Detroit, Toledo, Northern Indiana, then move on to Duluth, Des .Moines, Omaha, Kansas City, St. Louis, returning to Chi- cago before Christmas. Back in Pro\'idencc Jan. 3, he plans to leave again on the 14th, this time to hit Topeka, Wichita, Okla- homa City, Ft. Worth, Dallas, Houston, San Antonio, Los Angeles, San Francisco, Denver, and Chicago again. He is due back in his office in L'. H. Feb. 12. After a swing through the three northern New England States, Oct. 25 - Nov. 3, Howard G. Baetzhold '44 will leave Provi- dence Nov. 17 again. His tentative itiner- ary called for the following stops: No\'. 18 — Albany. Nov. 19 — Troy and Schenec- tady. Nov. 22 — Utica. Nov. 23— Svracuse. Nov. 24— Rochester. Nov. 25-28— Buf- falo. Nov. 29 — East Aurora and Hamburg, N. Y. Nov. 30 — Erie, Pa. Dec. 1 — ^'oungs- town. Dec. 2 — Canton and Massilon. Dec. 3— Akron. Dec. 6-8— Cleveland. Dec. 9 — Indianapolis. Dec. 10 — Louis- ville, Ky. Dec. 13 — Cincinnati. Dec. 14 — Davton. Dec. 15 — Columbus. Dec. 16 — Pittsburgh. Dec. 17— Buffalo. Dec. 20— Schneider and Kenmore, N. Y. The itinerary of Jasper L. Olmstead '44 is also tentative, but it will concentrate on the South. On his major trip he will leave late in March and visit the following places: March 28 — Middletown, Md. March 29— Baltimore. March 30— Wash- ington. March 31 — Richmond, \"a. .^pril 1— Norfolk, \a. April 4— Asheville, N. C. April 5 — Knoxville, Tenn. .^pril 6 — Chat- tanooga. -Atlanta and Raleigh, N. C, are also likely points of call. Lloyd W. Cornell, Jr., '44 will venture less far afield, but he will spend three weeks in January in the Philadelphia area. New Jersey, and New York City. In March he expects to devote a fortnight to Connecticut and New York State. -4 As Andrews Envisioned ► At the L'niversitv of Nebraska a program has been set in moti(;n to bring the campus "out of the mud" and transform it into one of beauty. The University Founda- tion has been created to bring the plan to reality. One of the prin- cipal buildings at Nebraska, -An- drews Hall, has stood for 20 years "awaiting such development," says the Alumni Magazine. The late Chancellor, E. Benjamin -Andrews, one-time President of Brown L'ni- versitv, headed the I niversity of Nebraska from 1900 to 1909. "He always envisioned a beautiful cam- pus and worked incessantly toward that end," says the writer. The new project will surround the building which stands as his memorial at Nebraska. ^ Standing Invitations ► Sever.\l of the Brown Clubs have resumed their regular lunch- eons and dinners, to which all Brown men, resident or \isiting, are in\-ited. The list is doubtless incomplete, for Boston, Hartford, and Pittsburgh are also accustomed to hold monthlj- luncheons. BALTIMORE, dinner third Thursday of the month (except December'), Northway .Apartments, 3700 No. Charles St., 6:30. CHICAGO, luncheon every Fri- day in the Chicago Real Estate Board at 105 W. iMadison St., noon. LOS -ANGELES, luncheon every Thursday at the Hotel -Alexandria, 5th and Spring Sts., noon. PHILADELPHIA, luncheon sec- ond Tuesdav of the month at the Alpha Club, 1911 Chestnut .St., 12:15. W-ASHINGTON, D. C, luncheon every Wednesday at O'Donnell's Restaurant; bowling every Thurs- day at Lafayette -Alleys, Eve St. between 15th and 16th. -4 ► ► .Alumni in Chicago were hosts to 24 members of the Class of 1952 and their fathers in September shortly before the boys left to begin their Freshman year at Brown. In addition to the 23 Illinois Freshmen, -Alex .Simpson came down from Racine, Wis., for the affair, one of the best in the long tradition of welcome to new Brunonians. Seventy attended the luncheon Sept. 14 at the University Club, over which Presi- dent James R. Brenmer, Jr., '34 presided. "Freshman" Trustee James L. Palmer '19 was one who welcomed the new crop, and Chester -A. Cook '91 had lively advice. Newspaper accounts also cited Elmer T. Stevens '04 and Ronald .M- Kimball '18 at the head table. The new record album was played for the crowd and received enthusiastically. Heading the column "Society in Chi- cago", one newspaper played the story for two columns under the heading "Club to Honor 24 .Accepted for Brown College" and said, "In the Stag lines at the holiday parties here this winter you'll be running into more than the usual number of bo\s from Brown." It said the Freshmen were accepted from 500 applicants in the Chicago area, including five of Boys Latin's 16 graduates in the 1948 class. Three from Lake BlufT were matriculating at Brown, that "smallest of i\y leaf col- leges." While the -Middle West alumni presen- tation of the Big Brown Bear had ample support in Chicago, the Club has two projects of its own of more than usual interest. One is a scholarship fund. The other is a Brown Club Directory, Chi- cago's lirst, intended to bring to more than 400 prominent Chicagoans the com- panies and products with which the alunmi are affiliated. Free distribution is planned, the publication to be financed by business cards. The wording of one sample was: "Johnny Bruin '14, Brunonia Exterminator Co., Tigers and Bulldogs a specialty, 65 Prospect St., Gaspee 1234." In connection with the directory, alumni 15 were asked to express their willingness to talk with graduates seeking job in- formation in their industries or vocations. CoroncI Magazine, which featured some splendid pages on the l\y League Colleges, donated enough prints 'of the handsome University Hall color photo so that there will be one in each directory. Reprints of the New York Times ac- count of the Brown-Princeton football game were distributed to the Chicago alumni. Photographs tell the story of the Brown golf outing at the Rolling Green Country Club on July 23. It was a great day. < WILLIAM J. ROnERTS '42 Hartford's Sendoff ► ► CoNT.\CTS with Brown undergrad- uates continue to be prominent in the pro- gram of the lix-ely Hartford Brown Club. Last spring the Club held its annual dance during the Easter holidavs so that the men from College Hill could join the alumni in the fun. On Sept. 15, a meeting regarded as one of the best in the long history of the Club was devoted to a send- off of the new Freshman crop from the area. In all, 97 men sat down together, including Freshmen and their fathers^ undergraduates, and alumni. -At the dinner at the L'niversity Club Ed Tuller showed why we have chosen him again and will continue to choose him to speak for the alumni to the new Brun- onians. Half the time he had us in stitch- es and the rest of the time he had not only the Freshmen but all of us spellbound as he told why he went to Brown. Paul -Mackesey left no doubt that the athletic destiny is in good hands as he told of the problems of schedule-making and showed what is in store. He always has his feet on the ground, and we like him. Dr. Bruce Bigelow was perfect, bringing to the Freshmen a clear picture of the great opportunity before them. We knew again what a grand college Brown is, and the dads were proud of the wonderful choice their sons had made. Bill Mc- Cormick spoke briefly in urging the Fresh- men of the great succession they were joining of "Men duly qualified for dis- charging the Offices of Life with usefulness and reputation." If other groups of Brown men could have been present the custom would be- come universal of giving those grand young men the kind of sendoff' we have found to be so satisfying. Those present included: Edwin H. Tuller '35, Cy Flanders '18, Manton Eddy '22, Louis S. Chick '22, John J. Mozzochi '31, Bob Goodell, Jr., '52, Stuart Fitz- patrick '52, Dr. -Maurice -M.

Y\'s Sub Freshmen ► ► The Brown University Club in New York restored to its calendar this fall the successful annual Sub-Freshman dinner for boys from the metropolitan area who were entering Brown. The affair, held at the Clubhouse, 39 East 89th St., provided an opportunity for prospective Freshmen to meet with alumni and their future classmates prior to re- porting to the campus. While the dinner was limited to 130 boys and guests and a few alumni, many more sat in on the speaking program later. Featured speak- ers were Dr. Bruce M. Bigelow and Dean Emery R. Walker, the Vice-President talking about Brown, its traditions, and opportunities, the Dean of Admission providing details about Freshman Week. Thomas B. Appleget '17 was his usual fine self as toastmaster, and the Club's President, Robert C. Litchfield '23, gave a special welcome. Willard C. Butcher '47 was chairman of arrangements. The November feature will be a Club Night on the 17th when Edward Hanra- han. Chairman of the SEC, will be the speaker. Gerald Donovan '12 will be toastmaster. Oct. 27 was to be Footlxill Night with dinner and a program listing Everett B. Morris of the Herald Tribune, Athletic Director Paul F. Mackesey '32, and Everett M.

It was dis- tinctly a good party, with delegations on hand from Bridgeport, Waterbury, Hart- ford, and elsewhere in the .State. A dozen undergraduates joined with the alumni in the evening, which was set up by Presi- dent Clarence W'. Miller '12, Secretary John Braman '40, and Louis Horvath, honorary' member of the Club. The speaking was brief and informative. Athletic Director I^aul Mackesey des- cribed the 1948 X'arsity material and prospects. Chesley Worthington of the Alumni Moitlhly gave the general picture on College Hill on the eve of the opening Convocation. Benjamin A. Chase H '38, area chairman for the Housing and De- yelopment campaign, said in a few sen- tences that the program boiled down to the provision of dormitories for a resi- dential college and proper accommodation of students other than commuters. Lewis A. Shaw '48, Athletic Publicity Director, described his activities and provided a brisk running commentary on the football films which ended the smoker. The Club elected Donald Holmes '46 as Treasurer to succeed Gardner Wheeler, Jr., '36. ^Several hundred alumni and friends took advantage of arrangements by Ro- land E. Copeland '15 and enjoyed a box- lunch type of reunion outside the Bowl the day of the game. The weather as- sisted, and Brunonians from all over New- England and from as far as Pennsylvania had a chance to visit with each other. A delay prevented the Freshman caravan of 17 busses from joining the reunion, and the band was unable to lend its pre.sence, but without even an informal rally the occasion was definitely worth while for the pleasure it gave the alumni who stayed or dropped by on the Vale Soccer Field, generously lent for the noon hour. A number of stars from teams of other years were greeted by their friends. The crowd gave Copeland a cheer be- fore moving on into the Bowl. His com- mittee: Ed Murphy, Bob Hallock, Don Holmes, Elmer P2aton, and Braman. Hearing The President ► Brown Miix in Detroit took an active interest in President Wriston's October \isit to that city to speak before the Economics Club. Officers of the Brown Club were among the Brunonians at the head table for the event, and many alum- ni were to be in the audience. A summer luncheon was arranged by President iXimmo July 16 at L'Aiglon Restaurant in the Fisher Building when W. C. Worthington of the Alumni Monthly was the guest and spoke informally of the -American .Alumni Council, which he had just attended, and of affairs more closely related to Brown. He had a friend- ly welcome and enjoyed a lively discussion. A Paris Gathering ► When J. K. Sonntag, Assistant Dean of the College, goes to Paris early this winter on a swift trip, he hopes to meet Brown alunmi in tne French capital. Those of record in the -Alumni Office are: Dr. Theodore C. Merrill '96, 10 bis rue Herran, William H. Reese '17, Chase Bank 41 rue Cambon, Lt. Comdr. Richard H. Spear '17, 18 rue Royale. F>ank M.

All Rhode Island ► ► It's, the Brown Cliih ol Rhode Island now. The old Providence Brown Club has changed its name with the thought to broaden its scope ami influence, and this year an effort will be made to enlist the acti\'e interest of men anywhere in the State. The Executive Committee has begun its work, and announcement of fall and winter programs is expected soon. The membership has never been larger. At the annual meeting last May the re- port showed 614 members in good stand- ing, from whose dues more than $5000 had been expended in LIniversity causes. The Club continued its scholarship aid.

Fif- teen members of the Brown Yacht Club received medals — mementoes of their championship season. The last award was made in conjunction with the Brown- M. I. T. alumni dinner, and a similar affair brought the Brown and Holy Cross Clubs of Rhode Island together. Gifts went toward the Brown Band uniforms, band orchestrations, and the Brown- Pembroke Orchestra. The last enter- tained the Brown Club ?t a sell-out Pops Concert in Alumnae Hall in April. A reception to Mrs. Wriston was a highspot of the year for the members and their wives. J. Wilbur Riker '22 wts re-elected President of the Club for the coming year. Others who served last year were: Vice- President — Mason L. Dunn '35; Secre- tary — Arthur H. Femer '22; Treasurer — E. John Lownes, Jr., '2.3; E.xecutive Com- mittee — Vernon Alden '45, Richard A.

The Brown Club year began Sept. 16 at the old stamping ground, the Northway Apartments, where a dozen men dined although others were still out of town. Irving Loxley '27, Secretary of his Class, was the guest of his classmate Ken Hovey and chipped in with interesting tidbits about the doings back on the Hill and around Little Rhody. Three undergrad- uates were also on hand to give the latest hot scoop on the football team: Loring Hawes '51, son of Prof. Ray Hawes '12, Don Miller '50, and Bill Connor '49. (Their enthusiasm about the prospects of the Yale game cost the alumni a little money a few days later.) Others present were Charlie Ives '25, Hal Madison '31, Chris Cuddeback '21, Ed Hodgson '29 and Jim Armstrong '43 The speaker on Oct. 21 was to be Hal Madison, who promised to tell about his work at Glenn L. Martin's. In the works is a steak roast outdoors at Ken Hovey 's, with the womenfolk to be included. The regular dinners will be held on the third Thursday of the month in November, January, March, April, and May. Nothing is planned for the busy period of Decem- ber, and the plan is to meet in larger quarters in February, together with the wives and Pembroke alumnae. One of the most successful meetings last year was the day at the Killcndale Country Club June 24. John Hunt had the best card (at his home course — and Ken Hovey 's), while other golfers in- cluded Russ Wonderlic, Bert Willard, Vernon Chase, Dave Housh, and Arm- strong. Rain limited the play to nine holes, after which President Ives joined the group for dinner on the outside porch, where w'e had an excellent view of the course and the rainbows which followed the thunderstorm. We spent the last half of the evening in an earnest dis- cussion of means to bolster private support of the University. M J. c. .\ Oregon Enthusiasm ► ► Howard R. Perrin '14 of Klamath Falls was elected President of the Oregon Brown University Club at the annual meeting Sept. 16 at the Uni\-ersity Club in Portland. Mr. Perrin is one of Brown's most distinguished graduates on the I^a- cific coast and one of the leading archi- tects of Oregon and California. He said he would return to the Brown campus for his class reunion in the spring. Other officers elected were: Philip M. Creighton '39, Vice-President; Col. Harry A. Skerry '09, Treas\irer; and Ashley Greene '21, Secretary. The guest of honor was John Wiitala of Portland, who returned tc Brown this year as a Junior. In an account of activ- ities on the campus, he said the thing that impressed him most upon his arri\al at Brown was the small size of the campus, which he estimated to be about eight square blocks. He said other students from the great open spaces, where real estate is plentiful and confinement not to be tolerated, had been impressed likewise. He said he believed, nevertheless, that the age and culture of the East has much to give to the newer West and he is grate- ful for the opportunity of attending Brown. President Perrin presented to Willis Clark, past President of the University Club of Portland, an 1825 print of the Brown University campus, showing Uni- versity Hall. He said the building was one of seven pre-colonial college buildings in the United States and mentioned that it had been used in the Revolutionary War by the French troops of Marquis De Lafayette. The framed print had been sent to the Brown L'niversity Club of Oregon by the L'niversity Alumni office. It was a copy of one presented to the University Chib of New York City. Mr. Clark, who is an alumnus of Vale and one of Portland's leading citizens, paid high tribute to the scholarship and traditions of Brown in his acceptance speech. Colonel Skerry told of his experiences as a Japanese prisoner after Bataan and also his contacts with the Russians later. (See elsewhere for his story.) Commander Charles Hibbard '07,USN retired, of .\storia, was the oldest graduate present. Commander Hibbard said when he received the invitation to the annual meeting he was most happy. His father and grandfather were both also graduates of Brown. He said his father kept a diary throughout his life but many years had onlv one entry; that was, "Attended Brown Commencement." Commander Hibliard, who is a graduate also of Annap- olis, was for many years a shore installa- tion construction engineer in the Navy. Milton S. Shaw '37, one of Portland's leading funeral directors, said he had followed Colonel Skerry's career for many years as his father was in the same class with the distinguished .soldier. That was the class of 1909. Dr. Marshall L. Synder '30, Professor of Bacteriology at the Uni- versity of Oregon Dental School, led a paneltliscussion on the future of Brown. It seemed to be the concensus of the group that Brown will serve humanity As Skerry Saw the Reds < < ► ► College men of today have, as their most important mission, the duty to learn to live in a world with the Russians, in the opinion of Col. Harry A. Skerry '09 of Portland, Ore. Speaking as a newly elected officer of the Brown University Club of Oregon at its September dinner, he had a number of enlightening anecdotes to tell about the Russians, "a young, vigorous, intelligent, and efficient people." Col. Skerry served on the statT of Gen- eral Jonathan Wainwright as his chief engineer until captured by the Japanese on Bataan. He remained their prisoner until the Russians liberated him. "When the Russians came to our pris- on," he said, "we found the commanders most boastful and bombastic. With the commanding officer was a woman who became General Parker's interpreter. She was a captain in the regular Russian army, a tremendously big woman who spoke English fluently, as well as Chinese, Jap- anese, Russian, and other languages. "Although the Russians were our allies, they watched us jealously. One day I approached a private soldier to examine his rifle. Like a flash, he brought it down and had it sticking into my stomach before I knew it. He seemed to think I was going to take it away from him. "These soldiers are likely to have baggy pants and be slouchy in appearance, but a sharp command from an officer puts them into motion immediately. I remember on one occasion seeing a great number of them in the lobby of a captured Japanese 18 hotel. Thoy haven't much respect for property One of them was riding a bicycle around the lobby, and another had piled cookies high on a table. An officer came in, barked a command, and within a few- seconds the entire group was on the march — bicycle, cookies, and all. "The Russians as a nation are very much vounger than we, and they remind you of our gold miners of '49. Their sports are likely to be rough. On one occasion they were in a brewery with Americans celebrating victory. Returning to camp, just to flex their muscles and show off to the Americans, they went charging up the street sticking bayonets into automobile tires. They were not mad or malicious — just showing off. We Americans are like- ly to forget that we are very young, too. Our college boys still tear towns apart when they win a football game, and it wasn't so long ago when the cowboys did considerable shooting just for fun. "One of the world's difficulties today is that the two nations running it are yoiing and inexperienced in international affairs. Each, unfortunately, is cocksure that it has the biggest and best of everything good, useful, and beautiful. One of oiir American weaknesses, along with this, is that we lose interest. We older people feel we have done our part and that it is up to the kids to take over. .And so I say the college men of today will have to take over and find the way to peace." ^ Ashley Greene '21 BROWN ALUMNI MONTHLY and our nation best by remaining always a small and selective school of cultured citizenship. Philip M. Creighton '39, played the new Brown records and led in community singing. The song sheets were pro\ iilcd by Coburn A. Buxton '34, owner of the Brunonia Kennels at Dallas, Tex. ^ A. G. Houstoti's Turn In Texas ► ► .'\ STIMULATING TALK on modern edu- cation and a report on the Advisory Coun- cil meeting in Providence featured the May 21 meeting of the Brown University Club of Te.xas held at the Ship Ahoy Restaurant in Houston with the following present: Dr. and Mrs. K. L. Burdon, Dr. and Mrs. Leo Horvitz, Mr. and Mrs. Joseph J. lannoli, Mr. and Mrs. W. J. McGrath, Mr. and Mrs. N. P. McLeod, Leon M. Payne, Mr. and Mrs. M. Pepper, Mr. and Mrs. W. W. Stewart, and Mr. and Mrs. James L. VVhitcomb, all of Houston; Col. and Mrs. C. R. Morhouse of Ran- dolph Field, C. B. Shiver of College Sta- tion, and Mr. and Mrs. R. T. Staples of Dallas. Leon Payne had represented the South Central Alumni Region, as its Vice-Presi- dent, at the February meeting in Provi- dence and reported the University deeply interested in its alumni throughout the country, as well as in their activities in talking about Brown to good college ma- terial from outlying areas. The guest of honor was Alan Lake Chidsey, Headmaster of St. John's School, Houston, who spoke on current trends and problems in education. During the discussion period, he suggested that the alumni could serve Brown University best by doing something specific for education in the community right at hand. Dr. Burdon presided as master of ceremonies. Mr. Staples presided over the business meeting, reporting on the Dallas meeting in November, 1947. The Treasurer's re- port showed $247. on hand for the James Quayle Dealey scholarship, with an addi- tional $65. pledged. Dues were set up to provide an operating fund. A com- mittee was appointed to consider the scholarship project further and, in addi- tion, to consider other suggestions along the line of Dr. Chidsey's recommendation — all to be reported on at the fall meeting. Sears in the South ► Peabody College in Nashville, Tenn., seeking $4,000,000 for ex- pansion (and who isn't?), recalls the major role played by President Barnas Sears of Brown in its critical years. The Boston merchant, George Peabody, had set aside two gifts of a million dollars after the Civil war to help Southern recovery, and Sears went down to administer the fund as Executive Secretary until his death in 1880. The Nashville Banner said recently, "He directed the use of that fund with consum- mate wisdom. He used it from Virginia to Texas with an eye to the healing of Southern wounds.... Through Dr. Sears' perception of the educational strategy involved, Peabody College came into exist- ence." A In the Ivy League Ranking ► ► Although the Ivy League as such is still without an official bussing, there is no longer much pretense that it isn't hovering over eight gridirons this fall. Metropolitan newspapers publish the Ivy League "standing" each week (Brown was inconclusively placed at midseason, with one game won and one lost), and other references are legion. We were interested to see the early speculation of Lee Gould of Princeton, for our money one of the best football writers in the alumni magazine field. "Of the Ivy League clubs," he said, the only two whose ultimate positions in the standings can be crystal-balled with any degree of assurance appear to be those old Thanksgiving Day rivals, Penn and Cornell.... A thoughtful guess would have the Ivies finishing something like this: 1. Penn. 2. Columbia. 3. Princeton. 4. Dartmouth. 5. Brown. 6. Harvard. 7. Yale. 8. Cornell. The interesting thing to us was that Gould's ranking came after Yale had beaten Brown but be- fore Brown had beaten Princeton. ^ Mr. Staples appointed the following com- mittee; Chairman James L. Whitcomb, Morris Pepper, and Coburn Buxton, the last to represent the Dallas membership. Other motions were adopted which will lead to close relationship between the Brown Club and undergraduates on the Hill. -4 Long Island Invitation ► Brown men on Long Island's North Shore were invited to the Manhasset home of Gavin A. Pitt '38 for the evening of Nov. 4. The attraction was some movies of Brown football and Commence- ment scenes, and the ultimate hope is the formation of an alumni group for the district. Pitt acted with Frederick H. Rohlfs '26 in meeting demands from men in the area for a Brown club. The organization meeting was called for Pitt's home at 80 Woodcut Lane, Strathmore at Manhasset. They planned to issue a challenge to the Brown men on the South Shore of Long Island to match their interest and activity. Lip in Westchester County there are signs that similar interest exists and a similar desire for an informal Brown Club. Vice-President William W. Browne '08 and Allan B. Sikes '23 are taking the lead there -4 For the Washingtonians ► ► The Washington Brown Club held a well-attended smoker Sept. 27 at the Army-Navy Club which featured Dr. James Shoemaker, formerly of the Econ- omics Department at Brown and now serving with the National Security Re- sources Board in Washington. Dr. Shoe- maker, who was chairman of the National Economic Mission for Korea, ga\e a graphic picture of the present situation in the Far East with emphasis on the position of Korea in the economic and political pattern. An enthusiastic group of Washington Brunonians trekked up to Princeton for the tail-tying party. Prior to the game they enjoyed lunch at the Nassau with the Philadelphia Brown Club. OnOct.28theClubwasscheduledtospon- sor a sports night with Paul Mackesey, Director of Athletics, down from Provid- ence to talk of football and show movies. Future dates include: Nov. 20 — Cocktail party. Dec. 13 — Annual Banquet. Don Ranard is chairman of the program com- mittee. The weekly luncheons in O'Donnell's at 12:30 are going strong. The meals are good (no reservations are necessary) and the company and conversation are ex- cellent. The Club is again participating in the Washington Intercollegiate Bowling League at the Lafayette Alleys, Eye St., where recruits are welcome. For informa- tion, call the Club President, George Hurley, Jr., at CHestnut 3703. All Brown men who have not been receiving notices of the Club activities are encouraged to call Win Southworth at Executive 3300, Ext. 657, and give him their addresses. Treasurer Tod Shot- ton still enjoys receiving dues ($2.00) at 2512 Wisconsin Ave., N.W., Washing- on, D. C. 4 Air Mail to Los Angeles ► ► By air mail, the Los Angeles Brown Club receives the Brown Daily Herald throughout the football season, and the news provides a feature of the weekly luncheons each Thursday, which were re- sumed Sept. 30. The Brown men have a table reserved for them in the Continental Room of the Hotel Alexandria, where they can drop in at any time during the noon hour. The Heralds are proving so popu- lar that the subscription may be continued through the year, according to Secretary Stephen H. Dolley '42. The program committee (Lyle Caldwell '21, Miles Flint '27, and T. Wells '26) is making plans for the annual fall football banquet, which will also feature an elec- tion of officers. The Club hopes to have movies of one of the feature games for that date, as yet not determined. Presi- dent Hugh Wallace '37, Bill Creasey '39, Dick Messinger '37, and the Secretary have also been in session as an informal executive committee. A party for Brown undergraduates from the area is also pro- posed, either for the Christmas holidays or as a send-off next fall. An organizational suggestion under consideration is to split the job of Secre- tary-Treasurer into thirds, with the Secre- tary handling correspondence, notices, and other mailings, the Treasurer hand- ling dues, and the other man in charge of public relations. As a Regional Director George Giraud '42 is working in close co- operation with the Club. -4 s. H. D. Happy Handful, N. C. ► Asheville's "happy handful" of Brown men met at the S. & W. Cafeteria in Asheville Sept. 28. The group was saddened by the recollection of Nick Mumford '12, who had died since their last get-together, but gladdened by the unexpected visit of Harry Spinney '35 of Concord, Mass., who was in Asheville at- tending, of all things, a chicken show. Well, maybe it was a poultrymen's con- vention. Earl Milligan '23, the organizer, was again the leading spirit. Also present were Jim Hurley '29, Herb Pickard '33, 19 BROWN ALUMNI MONTHLY Dutey Greene '35, and Thurston Spicer '35. There was no set order of business. Milligan reported getting a letter from Earl Clark '14 who is with Solvay Sales Corporation at High Point, N. C, ex- pressing interest in the Asheville group and saying that he hoped to make a meet- ing in the western part of the state. What with Spinney, Greene and Spicer, the class of '35 had a minor reunion. Since Spinney had been a quarterback and a track man in his day, the talk turned to the football teams of that college generation. From then on "Remember when?" was the order of the day. Milligan had not been able to get all the necessary ducks in a row for a showing of a football film during the summer as he had ex- pected, but we still have hopes. Of course a small alumni group like that at Asheville can't expect rapid growth, but Thurt Spicer did tell us that he had a future Pembroker at his house, age five weeks. Speaking of Brown men, Russell C. Smith '10 of Cranston Print Works was a guest of the Chamber of Commerce at Hendersonville over in Transyhania County a few miles south of here. Cran- ston Print Works is to build a plant be- tween Hendersonville and Asheville. Now that should be a good source of Brown men. 4 J. B. HURLEY '29 Philadelphia Futures ► The lunch hour every second Tuesday of the month will bring Brown alumni in Philadelphia together at the Alpha Club, 1911 Chestnut St., at 12:15. Notices to the Brunonians in the area have been sent out by Frank Hope, Secretary, who would be glad to add other names to his list. The luncheon custom was resumed Oct. 12. The Philadelphia Brown Club picked a good day to see the Varsity football team in action, with its annual pilgrimage to the Princeton game on Oct. 2. Before the game the Brunonians lunched to- gether at the Nassau Tavern, with a good gathering. Included in the company was the delegation from Baltimore, which had been invited to join. •^ Engineers Afloat ■^ We haven't vet reported on the unique venture of the Brown Engineering Asso- ciation which booked passage June 16 on the Circle Line Sightseeing Yacht for the river trip around Manhattan that evening. Families and friends were in- cluded in the invitations for this spring outing of the New York engineers. New Englanders had their annual chowder party at the Rhode Island Yacht Club just before Commencement, with food, fun, and "no speeches" again the policy. ■< Enterprise in Miami ► A POSTCARD of Miami's Columbus Hotel brought the word that the new Brown Club of Southern Florida had held an enjoyable meeting there May 26. "The Club appears to be successfully launched," writes Paul Maddock '33, Director of the Associated Alumni, who was a leader in the project, along with Edwin Bliss '47 and James Doran '33. There are about 30 Brunonians in the area, about whom the Alumni Ofifice sent information. -4 Brunonians Far and Near < < EDITED BY JOHN B.

He still puts in some of his time as a teach- er in the State Teachers College at Indiana, Pa., where his address is 656 Grant St. Oliver C. Horsman has a new address at 4313 Elmwood Ave., Erie, Pa. Edward A. Stockwell has been re- elected a Director of the Providence Athenaeum. 1900 Rev. Joseph L. Peacock, now residing in Glens Falls, New York, was a recent guest at the Hotel George Washington in New York City where he renewed ac- quaintance with Nat Tufts, his classmate, who is General Manager of the Washing- ton. 1901 Howard h. Coffin, Republican Con- gressman from Michigan's 13th District, is a candidate for re-election. His cam- paign slogan: "One Good Term Deserves Another." He had a heavy work-load for a Freshman in Congress, serving on the Public Works and House Adminis- tration Committees and one to investigate Black Markets. He supported the Taft- 20 R. I. World Affairs Council ► Dr. Robert C. De.xter '12, his- torian and international relief work- er, began his duties as Director of the reorganized World Affairs Coun- cil of Rhode Island on Oct. 11. He expected to return to Paris where he had been attending the opening session of the United Nations Gen- eral Assembly. Dr. Dexter and his wife, Dr. Elizabeth Anthony Dexter, an his- torian who did graduate work at Brown, have spent much of their time in Europe during the past de- cade. They worked at various times with the American Commis- sion for Service in Czechoslovakia, a prewar relief group, and the Uni- tarian Service Committee for aid to refugees, the Church Peace Union, and most recently with the World Federation of United Na- tions Associations The latest as- signment took Dr. Dexter all over Europe and the Near East from Finland to Turkey. The World Affairs Council merged last spring with the Rhode Island branch of the Foreign Policy Asso- ciation. -4 Hartley Act despite the fact that his home was picketed. The Goodwin Memorial Library in Hadley, Mass., this fall received a dozen copies of anthologies, each containing one or more poems by Col, G. A. Taylor. His best-known effort, "Kansas Pete," (about a dog he had in college days) was first published 40 years ago and has been re- published frequently. Mrs. Taylor is a Trustee of Old Hadleigh Library. 1902 New addresses: Preston H. Porcheron, 308 Bay Haven Court, Clearwater, Fla.; Charles B. Coppen, 82 Overhill Rd., East Greenwich, R.

He retired as Treasurer of Congdon & Carpenter in Providence recently, having filled the post for 25 of the 26 years of his affiliation. 1904 Our clipping service has brought us a picture of Prof. H. H. Gnuse from the Memphis Press Scimitar with this piquing caption: "Prof. Gnuse, who served as principal of South Side High School from its opening in 1923 until he retired in 1947. Prior to South Side he had been a teacher at the old Memphis High School, then at Central High until 1917, with some years as principal of Rozelle School. The pic- ture you saw on Page 13 (we didn't) was taken when he was a student at La Grange, Mo. He went to Brown University where he received his A. B. and A. M. degrees. He taught in South Carolina and came to Memphis in 1907." BROWN ALUMNI MONTHLY Dr. Ilsley Boone, superintendent of Sunshine Park, was host to 500 delegates of the American Sunbathing Association which held its 17th annual convention at the 2000-acre establishment in New Jer- sey. The most important rule of the park is that "Clothes of any kind are strictly forbidden, without special per- mission." The gathering was one of the largest held by the nudists, who claim 17,000 members and affiliates of the na- tional organization, as well as two million other addicts. 1905 Although he had gained considerable support, Fred C. Broomhead declined to permit the use of his name in the Re- publican primary as a candidate for the U. S. Senate. Last spring some "behind- the-scenes" leaders had rated him as a favorite for the nomination. Michael F. Costello, Sheriff of the Providence County Court, is waging an impressive one-man battle against the housing shortage in Providence. Con- vinced that personal values must be placed against material interests, he has refused to carry out writs of eviction that would break up families; and has per- sonally placed advertisements in the local papers to find housing for the people he is forced to eject. Current addresses: Alfred VV. Ingalls, Box 445, Boston 2, Mass.; Ralph G. Johnson, Windermere East Hotel, 1642 E. 56th St. Chicago 37, 111. 1906 Rev. Dr. and Mrs. W. Douglas Swaf- field have announced the marriage of their daughter Millicent Ruth to Neal Avery Tyler, Jr., son of Mr. and Mrs. Neal A. Tyler of Casper, VVyo. The ceremony was performed by Dr. Swaffield July 31 at the Baptist Church, Alton, N. H. F. Hartwell Swaffield '37, brother of the bride gave her in marriage, and she was attended as a matron of honor by a sister, Mrs. Miriam S. Flower, Brown Graduate School '40. Ushers included Gordon D. Swaffield '43, another brother. Robert McLaughry, Dartmouth '43 and son of the former Brown coach, was best man. The bride is a graduate of Colby Junior College and the University of New Hamp- shire. The groom, a Dartmouth '43 graduate, served in the Pacific as a war- time Navy pilot. 1907 Rev. John H. McLean has been chosen interim pastor of the First Church in Newbury, Mass. Mr. McLean retired from the active ministry about a year ago. Homer Newton Sweet, Ph.B., life Trustee of the University since 1942 and a member of the firm of Lybrand, Ross "Universal Choice'' ► Among those on hand for the Yale game this fall was Fritz Pollard '19. He must haye taken some satisfaction as he read the program story on Brown's all-time eleven: "A universal choice for any All- Time Brown team would be Fritz Pollard. ..who left an almost indel- ible mark on American gridiron history. A member of the Brown team that played in the first Rose Bowl game on Jan. 1, 1916, he was the sensation of the East during that fall season." ^ Bros. & Montgomery, accountants and auditors, since 1919, died suddenly of a coronary' thrombosis at his home in Weston, Mass., May 18, 1948. ".•\ man of few words, but of very firm convictions, he never participated in a discussion unless he had something dif- ferent to add to the contributions of others," President Wriston has written. "In a prudential capacity he was unsur- passed....Faithful in attendance, wise in judgment, loyal in heart, he fulfilled his duties with rare ability and fidelity." Born in Attleboro, Dec. 4, 1885, the son of Newton J. and Alice W. (Hatch) Sweet, he came to Brown from English High School, Providence, shone as a varsity hockey and chess player, was mainstay at shortstop of the Class base- ball nine, and served on the Brown Athletic Board, Liber Brunensis, and the Senior Ball Committee. He won Phi Beta Kappa in Junior year, and held the Bacon Scholarship. Chess remained his favorite game throughout his life. He also enjoyed travel and reading, and was fond of the outdoors, with the birds and the wild flowers his special study. From college he went to Brown & Sharpe Mfg. Co., as cost accountant, and in 1911 turned to public accounting in Boston. After working as staff account- ant with Harvey S. Chase & Co. and Cooley & Marvin, he became manager in the Boston office of Lybrand, Ross Bros. & Montgomery in 1916, and a mem- ber of the firm three years later. During his active career, he contributed much to the accounting profession. He was a former Vice-President of the American Institute of Accountants, a member of the Executive Committee and of the Council, and from 1927 until his death lecturer in accounting at the Graduate School of Business Administration, Har- vard, where he was well known and liked as teacher and adviser. A past President of the Massachusetts Society of Certified Public Accountants, Inc., he had been certified in his profession in New York, Pennsylvania, Michigan, and other States. In the First World War he worked in this country with the Signal Corps and the Aircraft Board. During the Second World War, he did duty in the Office of I^roduction Management and with the War Production Board. In civic and college affairs his connec- tions were always alive. His neighbors in Weston knew him as the anchor of the town finance committee, chairman of the advisory committee for veterans, and i n other capacities. He was President of the Brown Club of Boston in 1924, and, in recent years, chairman of the Northern New England Region, Brown Housing and Development Campaign. He took part in many meetings of the .Advisory Council of the -Associated .Alumni, seldom missed a Class reunion, and willingly gave his time, thought, and presence to class plans and problems. As a colleague (Carl T. Keller) has said. "He was toleranf ...patient, sympathetic, helpful. Beneath a reticent manner he concealed cheerful- ness, a quick and happy laughter, en- joyment of life and a proper valuation of material things." On April 25, 1923, he married Miss Elizabeth L. Snow of Norwood, Mass., who survives, with his mother, two sisters, .Alice Sweet Nicholson '10, Marian Sweet '16, and a brother, Everett L. Sweet '21. His fraternity was Kappa Sigma, 21 1908 Pictures in the New York Star of the June Commencement of the College of the City of New York showed the Faculty "flapping like bewildered birds in their wet gowns" and making a break for it as a downpour cut short the exercises in the open air. In the foreground was Dr. William W. Brown, President-elect of the Brown .Associated Alumni. His comment: "All wet." Rev.
