TRINITY REPOR VOLUME 2 NUMBER 1

Tuition Hiked To Balance Next Budget

A projected balanced budget for the academic year of 1971-72 is the message of a special report written by President Lockwood for The Tripod and printed in its entirety in this issue of the Reporter on page 6.

Following are some of the highlights excerpted from the report.

Balancing anticipated expenditures for the coming year, income will total $7,877 ,000. Tuition and fees will account for $4,341 ,000, or over. The projected income total is predicated on an average student body of 1495 , an increase of 20 over the present year, and an increase in tuition of $200 (to $2,500 a year) and in room rent of $100 (to $700 a year).

In spite of these increases, the report notes that " By comparison to other comparable priv~te colleges in the northeast, Trinity will remain among those with a lower total cost and our tuition will be less than many."

On the expense side, the largest single item of $2 ,58I ,000 is earmarked for the instructional program. Of the total, $ 2 ,200,000 will be spent on undergraduate instruction and the remainder for graduate and summer school programs.

In commenting on the "cutting pro cess ," prevalent at many other institutions, the report states that "we have continued with our salary increases, and we are holding faculty size constant."

Included in the new budget are new expenditures for the Community Relations Office, institu tiona! long-range planning and counselors for undergraduates. The report notes that "so

Dr. Lockwood Sets Drug Policy President Theodore D. Lockwood

issued four regulations concerning drug usage in a letter to all students distributed to them as they returned from spring vacation.

The regulations, issued directly from his office are:

1. that all students are "expected to be aware and observe the Connecticut and Federal statutes concerning drug usage"

and the President included texts of appropriate state and federal statutes in his letter;

2. a warning that the College may "find itself obligated to apprise the appropriate public agencies when it has knowledge of violations" of these statutes;

3. that students charged with violation of the drug statutes by a public agency

CAMPUS BEAUTIFICATION DAY- Some 50 students spent a Saturday sprucing up the campus during Earth Week.' The volunteers seeded over 30,000 square feet of campus, spread 30 yards of top soil, consumed 150 pounds of fertilizer, planted four dozen Euonymus shrubs and a dozen juniper bushes around selected buildings. Shown here raking a bare area are from left Juliet Balian, Lenn Kupferberg, Barbara Trudeau and Karen Fink. The project, was sponsored by the Mather Hall Board of Governors and directed by Andrew Wolf who said, "We felt before we march for ecology or tell other people about pollution we should clean up our own yard first ."

"will be given an immediate administrative hearing to determine whether the continued presence of that student on campus is considered to be detrimental to the well-being of the College;"

4. that a student found guilty by a judge or convicted in a court of such charges, "will be separated from the College and may be readmitted only after an administrative-faculty review hearing."

President Lockwood added "Nothing in these regulations alters our concern to help those individuals who wish counseling on drugs. O,ur hope is that we

can maintain a healthy campus community, a prospect severely jeopardized by the use of dangerous drugs and activities related to drugs."

The new regulations replace an interim policy statement made by Dr. Lockwood in March I969. That statement came down hard on pushers but did not include the possibility of suspension for any student charged by authorities with "possession or use" of illegal drugs as the new regulations do. Dr. Lockwood's recent letter also makes it clear that students "convicted of such charges" will not automatically be reinstated upon application but must first undergo an "administrative-faculty review hearing."

Annual Giving Nearing Goal

Three New Department Chairmen Named Coach Don Miller told his New

England champion football team that the "last 1 0 yards are the hardest."

That is precisely the outlook of the steering committee as the Annual Giving Campaign moved to within 92% of the $35o;ooo goal.

The appointment of new department chair.nen in chemistry, engineering and physics has been announced by President Lockwood.

The new chairman, to assume duties July 1, are : Dr. Henry A. DePhillips, Jr. in chemistry ; Professor August E. Sapega in engineering and Dr. Charles R. Miller in physics.

The appointment of the three new chairmen who have a total of 38 years on the Trinity faculty is part of College policy to elevate younger faculty and free present chairmen to spend more time in the classrooms and laboratories.

It was announced earlier that Dr. Richard K. Morris , professor of education , will succeed Professor Alexander Mackimmie Jr. , who is retiring in June, as head of the Education Department.

Dr. DePhillips will succeed Dr. Robert H. Smellie , professor of chemistry and

chairman of the department since 1963. Dr. Smellie will continue to teach. Dr. DePhillips joined the Trinity faculty in I963 and has been an associate professor since I 968 . He holds degrees from Fordham University where he received the Merck Index Award in Chemistry and he has a Ph.D. from Northwestern where he was a National Institute of Health Research Fellow.

He served as a research associate and investigator at the Marine Biological Laboratories, Woods Hole, Mass. , before coming to the College . His teaching specialty is physical chemistry and he has done extensive research in biochemistry. He has written numerous articles for professional publications and is a member

"We can't let up now," says national chairman Barclay Shaw, '35, who noted "the response has been most encouraging particularly from alumni and the college is deeply grateful for this show of support. But we still have a distance to cover and only 2 months to reach our June 30 goals."

As of April 15 , pledges and gifts to the 1 970-71 Annual Giving Program had reached $322,913 or 92% of the $350,000 goal which the college set last November as the "crucial margin of difference" in preserving the high quality of its educational program during a time of great fiscal restraint .

"We are getting close ," Shaw told the committee chairman , "But we must make our extra effort for more participation now in order to make our goal." The overall objective is sought from five groups, all of which have goals. These are : Alumni Fund ($200.000 goal); Parents Fund ($75 ,000 goal); Business and Industry ($50,000 goal); Friends of Trinity ($15 ,000 goal); and Foundations ($1 0,000 goal).

The college ends its fiscal year June 30th and predicated on a successful Annual Giving Program it is forecasting that it will end the year without a deficit.

It HAS Been A Year With this issue of the Trinity Reporter, we begin the second year of publication. It is

perhaps an appropriate time to review what prompted the decision to substitute the monthly (October through June) Reporter for the quarterly Alumni Magazine.

There were two basic reasons. Timeliness. Cost savings. Many alumni expressed the view that they wanted news about the College on a more

current basis than a quarterly could provide. Although admittedly even a monthly leaves something to be desired, we sense from

comments at alumni gatherings during the past few months that the Reporter has helped close the communications gap and that those who take time to read the publication feel they are, indeed, better informed about many aspects of campus activity.

The financial consideration was basic. In a period when Trinity- like all institutions of higher learning- is undergoing serious budgetry problems, every area of expenditure required scrutiny . The five-figure cost differential between four issues of the Magazine and nine issues of the Reporter could not be overlooked.

(In spite of the persuasiveness of substantial cost savings, there are still some alumni who decry the loss of the Magazine primarily on the basis of the prestige value it brought to the coffee table or to the office reception room.)

The change to a newspaper format for alumni publications has become widespread in the past ten years. The American Alumni Council recently published a Directory of Alumni Newspapers, noting that of the 163 institutions publishing alumni tabloids approximately half still publish a magazine but that the number is dwindling each year.

The Carnegie Review, Columbia University Journal, California Monthly, George Washington University Magazine, Stanford Review and the Union College Symposium are among the highly regarded alumni magazines no longer published.

At a recent meeting the American College Public Relations Association, one of the best attended seminars was devoted to the subject.

Tiini.ty was not the first to make the switch and will certainly not be the last. The trend is obvious and one day the coffee tables of suburbia may be totally barren of alumni magazines as we have known them.

In the meantime, as we begin the second year of publication of the Trinity Reporter, the Editors seek comments, advice and suggestions from alumni and other readers. It is only by feedback that we can measure the effectiveness of the effort and instigate improvement.

following service with the Navy and employment at the General Electric Company. He has been a full professor since 1967. He has been acting chairman of the department since Professor Nye was appointed Dean.

Awarded a National Science Foundation grant in 1960, Professor Sapega attended the summer institute in mathematics and digital computers at Louisiana Polytechnic Institute in 1960 and has been instrumental since in developing the computer systems and instruction at Trinity.

In 1968 he began his advanced study at WPI as a National Science Foundation Fellow. Along with Dean Nye, he has been a leading proponent of balancing a liberal arts education with a professional engineering degree and the two worked out the current cooperative program with officials at the Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute in Hartford which leads to a bachelors degree from Trinity and a masters of engineering degree from RPI.

['r. Miller succeeds Dr. F . Woodbridge Constant, Jarvis Prof~ssor qf Physics and head of the department from 1946 to 1969, and Dr. Robert Lindsay, associate professor of physics who was acting chairman last year. Dr. Miller has been acting chairman of the department this year since Dr. Lindsay was appointed director of the "College Science Improvement Program," grant awarded to the College by the National Science Foundation which will involve an intensive curriculum review of all the sciences over the next three years. Dr. Constant, who completed 25 years of Trinity service this year, continues as Jarvis Professor of Physics.

A native of Los Angeles, Dr. Miller received his B.S. and Ph.D. degrees from California Institute of Technology. His specialties are physics and theoretical physics and he taught at the University of California at Riverside before coming east where he was on the faculty of Amherst and Bryn Mawr College.

He joined the Trinity fa.culty in 1961 and has been an ' associate professor since 1968.

He has had articles published in the Journal of the Optical Society, Physical Review and Astrophysical Journal.

Greenblatt Given National Honor

Howie Greenblatt has been selected for a top honor by the National Collegiate Athletic Association.

Trin's "Most Valuable Player" on the basketball court this winter was one of only 15 senior basketball players in the nation selected by the NCAA as "epitomizing the term scholar-athlete."

The award carries a $I ,000 post graduate scholarship for each recipient. A religion and English major, Greenblatt plans to do his postgraduate study in law.

Greenblatt was named to the college division "scholars team" along with Bruce Wheeler of M.I.T., the only other player from a New England team named among the 15. There were five players selected among the University Division and five "at large."

While he was burning up the basketball net for three years for a torrid I ,214 career varsity points, Howie was also burning some midnight oil and setting an equally fast pace in the classroom where his career average is 3.7 (high B). He was elected Phi Beta Kappa at the end of his junior year.

Captain . of the basketball team this past season, Howie was known for his leadership, ball handiing and passing as well as his scoring. He is the first Trinity player under six-foot (he's S'IO) to score over 1 ,000 points and his career total is second in the all-time Bant record book behind Jim Belfiore's I ,369 set during the I 963-66 seasons.

A graduate of Hartford's Weaver High School, Greenblatt hasn't forgotten the inn te r-ei ty youngsters who live in neighborhoods where there is no room for backyard basketball. He spent last summer in the Ferris Center teaching the finer points of the "American game" to city youngsters who attended the NCAA Summer Youth Program held at the college.

Parents Group Reorganizes,. Petition For Trustee Seat

The directors of the Parents Association passed several resolutions at their spring meeting (April 17) including a request for representation on the Board of Trustees.

After voting a change in the name from Directors of the Parents Association to Parents Board, the group approved a resolution which read: "It is the consensus of the Parents Board that the Trustees of the College consider seating ·for a two-year term a Parents Trustee ·chosen by the Parents Board from among their own members in order to better interpret to Trustees, the problems, desires and suggestions of the Parents Board.

President Lockwood was at the meeting and said he would carry the request to . the Trustees. He urged patiens e, as such a request will require unanimous approval and, following that, a change in the College Charter.

He pointed out that five of the present Trustees are parents of currently enrolled students and suggested the Parents Board might elect one of these trustees to the Parents Board if immediate representation was desired.

In other action, the Parents Board authorized the executive committee to serve "until the new organization structure is formally adopted," and empowered the Board's president to "appoint a committee to draft a constitution for the Parents Association to be presented to the Board for approval and subsequent ratification by the entire membership of the Trinity Parents Association.

The officers of the now defunct Directors group were all elected to corresponding posts on the Parents Board. They are Frank K. Griesinger of Gates Mills, Ohio, president; William P. Durkee of New York City, vice president ; and Arthur 0 . Black of Butler, Pa., secretary-treasurer.

The resolutions for reorganization and the request for representation at the trustee level all reflect the Board's opinion that the Parents Association should take a greater role in assisting the College in planning and policy decisions.

Following the business meeting, the Parents Board attended a panel discussion by students moderated by College Vice President Thomas A. Smith focusing on student participation in College affairs.

The students all felt their own participation on college committees and in the institution's affairs was a valuable educational experience but they lamented that many students didn't seem as interested or willing to take the time to participate.

The panelists were: Sylvester Geer '74, member of Human Relations Committee and Trinity Coalition of Blacks; Andrew Wolf '73, Mather Hall Board of Governors and Trinity College Council; Robert Osher '71, chairman of TCC and Mather Hall Board member; Christopher Chase '74, curriculum committee and Steve Pearlstein '73, former editor of the Tripod.

On Friday, Dean of the Faculty Edwin Nye addressed the group at a dinner meeting in Hamlin.

Two Seniors Named Fellows, Cited by Watson Foundation

Two Trinity seniors have been awarded Thomas J. Watson Foundation fellowship grants totaling $6,000. each for post-graduate travel and study abroad.

The recipients named by the foundation are Thomas M. Weiner, an English major from Teaneck, N.J., and Philip S. Khoury, a non-western studies major from Washington, D.C.

Weiner Khoury

Khoury, who plans a career in college teaching, will travel in Iraq, Jordan and Israel for a study of minority groups in the Middle East. He was the first chairman of the student-established Scholarship Fund for disadvantaged students at Trinity and has served as a tutor and big brother at Hartford House . · in the North End. ·

Weiner plans a career in education and will travel in England, Sweden; the Netherlands, Germany, Soviet Union and Israel to study experiments in the education of young childr<tn . During the open semester project this year, he was a staff member of the Lorillard School, Bronx, New York.

The Trinity students are among 70 selected from 34 U .S. institutions receiving grants established by the late

Mrs. Thomas J. Watson, Sr. in memory of her husband, founder of International Business Machines Corporation. The recipients were selected primarily on the basis of their potential for creative leadership in their chosen fields.

Education Grads Plan Conference On Employment

The Trinity Education Graduate Alumni Association will hold a Spring Conference on May 15 in McCook Auditorium from 9:30 to noon . The theme of the Conference is "The Small Liberal Arts College and the Employment Market." The sessions are open to the public.

Frats Admit Coeds by Judy Dworin '70 Administrative Intern

If there is any question that Trinity has made a firm commitment to coeducation, a tour through XTX, Alpha Chi Rho , St. Anthony Hall, Psi U or Phi Kappa Psi at mealtime will remove any doubts. These fraternities, long-standing · havens of brotherly spirit, . have now broadened their membership to include a number of 'sisters.' Although each fraternity has handled the admission of women in a different way, one fact is constant: they have been admitted and it looks like they're going to stay .

Reaction from both men and women in the fraternities about the change is generally positive. Although some of the men are afraid that the long-held traditions of the fraternity may be affected , the majority opinion is that a more natural atmosphere has been created. Having women as members has also helped to alleviate the financial pressures of the fraternities.

Phi Kappa Psi and XTX are the only fraternities which have gone to the extent of making women full members. Phi Psi women went through the pledge period "just like the guys." This entailed designing 'pledge paddles' and giving a party for the rest of the fraternity. They were then initiated and introduced to the traditional rituals such as the secret handshake. "The girls didn't seem to mind it," says Glenn Kenney '72, a Phi Psi member. The response from several of the Phi Psi sisters confirms Glenn's speculation.

Unlike the other . fraternities which have included women by invitation, XTX has opened its membership to anyone who wants to· join. Because XTX is now just an eating club and has no national affiliation, women joining the eating club are full members. XTX even offers two kinds of eating plans: a dinner plan and an all-meal plan. Women in XTX have full voting privileges and hold offices as well. Presently Charla Thompson is social chairman.

There is now a political power debate going on in Pi Kappa Alpha concerning the role of women. Because the national constitution specifies an all-male constituency, women in this fraternity can only be eating club members. However, as Natalie Korsheniuk '73 puts it, a "sisterhood" has been created within the fraternity, and the women would like voting privileges. They are not advocating a break with the national, only the right . to be voting members. A lively debate has been going on at PKA as a result, all in the spirit of fraternity, however!

Alpha Chi Rho and St. Anthony's women are only members of the eating clubs while at Psi U they are social club members as well. There is no particular move by male or female in these houses for more active participation, however.

Women have joined fraternities for a variety of reasons. In many cases, it is a matter of convenience with regard to location. Some have joined because they already knew people in a particular fraternity, others because they found a smaller group situation more conducive to meeting people. A one-year Smith exchangee found the fraternity an ideal situation to get to know a group of people well in a short time.

Most of the female members do not find it a restricting kind of experience. One of St. Anthony's women explained that there is an especially diverse group of people in St. A's this year. Thus, it is possible to get to know a variety of people.

Also, the women enjoy the opportunity to get to know a group of men on an informal basis without the pressure of a dating situation. Although several of the girls are going out with fellow 'brothers,' this is not inevitable or particularly important to most of the women.

Thus, it appears that the days of the all-male fraternity have passed with the passing of an all-male Trinity College. The houses on Vernon Street do not seem to mind the change however, and for that matter, neither do the women!

College Exchange Program Gaining Support As Option

During the current term, 21 Trinity students have been studying at six other New England colleges - and a like number from other colleges are at Trinity - as the 12-College Exchange Program completes its second year of operation.

Trinity students are attending classes at Connecticut College, Mt. Holyoke, Smith, Vassar and Wellesley. One Trinity coed is studying at Williams.

The exchange students attending Trinity - all women - represent Connecticut College, Mt. Holyoke, Smith, Vassar , Wellesley and Wheaton.

The exchange program, one of the many inter-in sti tu t ional pro grams established as part of the new curriculum adopted in 1969, provides the student a wider choice of educational opportunities than can be available on one campus.

Specific examples of studies not available at Trinity which have motivated students to apply for a year's study at another campus include geology, oceanography and advanced computer work.

Other students seek new approaches to a particular discipline. For some, they just want a change of scene.

Most of those.who apply to Trinity on the exchange program come from

women's colleges and are basically interested in the coed experience.

Others seek Trinity because of its urban location with the inherent opportunity to become involved with community problems and projects.

Although the program was established primarily for juniors, sophomores and seniors are a.ccepted.

Commenting on the popularity of the program, Robbins Winslow, dean for educational services, said, "We have already received 90 applications from students to attend Trinity during the 1971-72 academic year. This is a significant increase in the number applying and would indicate that those who have already attended Trinity are reporting favorably to their friends at their 'horne' colleges.

"Of the 90 applicants, we have accepted 43, and assume that about that same number of Trinity students will study at other colleges in the exchange program next year."

The. 12 colleges in the program include: Amherst, Bowdoin, Connecticut College, Dartmouth, Mount Holyoke, Smith, Trinity, Vassar, Wellesley, Wesleyan, Wheaton and Williams.

The bag weighed about a pound less than when Houston first deposited it because of a loss of moisture. Houston took his "treasure" and returned it to the campus.

Kurth Rescues Youth Program

"Athletic Director Karl Kurth is Good People," wrote Woody Anderson of the Courant in a column last December devoted to Kurth's efforts to move Congress to again appropriate funds for the N a tiona! Summer Youth Sports Program.

The Program, sponsored by the President's Council on Physical Fitness Sports and the NCAA, was conducted last summer at 98 colleges and universities (including Trinity) in 54 cities and brought sports training and athletic competition to 85,000 inner-city youngsters.

With Congress making major cutbacks in the National budget, Kurth and others sele~ted by the NCAA went to Washington to try and save the program. Trinity's Athletic Director, armed with press clippings, pictures and letters concerning the 620 youngsters who went through the six-week program at the Ferris Center last summer called on Connecticut's congressmen and others.

That was in December. By rnid-J anuary the $3 million

government funds necessary to continue the program were approved. Another $2.5 million is considered donated by the colleges in terms of facilities, equipment and space.

But by mid-March the funds had not been released by the Federal Government to the NCAA for allocation to the colleges. This is late when you are trying to plan a summer program and get the top notch staff for it.

About this time Kurth leanred that certain parties in Washington who were sitting on the funds were circulating rumors of rnisues of monies at a large university as reasons why the

appropriation should be used for other recreational programs.

Karl Kurth doesn't anger easily. But when he thought of 85,000 youngsters being denied an apportunity because of political infighting or a rumor he started a slow burn.

Karl called the NCAA headquarters in Kansas City, Mo., related what he had heard and how he felt. His call triggered a chain of events-stirred up a political hornet's nest and for a week or so he was receiving long distance calls daily from various officials and attorneys.

The lid was off and in due time the rumor proved unfounded and those withholding the appropriation released the funds.

In Mid-April the Trinity "flap maker" received a nice latter from James H. Wilkinson, the National Summer Youth Program Director, thanking him for his effort which led to releasing the administrative log jam on the funds .

In Woody Anderson's words, "Athletic Director Karl Kurth is Good People." Only Woody didn't know how good at the time. Thousands of the nation's city youngsters will know this summer.

Student Researchers Quietly Seek New Horizons Why is the Red Cross, the Institute of

Living and the State of Connecticut eargerly looking over the shoulders of several Trinity students?

The answer is simple-research. In the basement of 71-year-old

Boradman Hall, in the modern computer room of the Hallden Engineering Laboratory, deep in the stacks of the library and elsewhere both on and off campus, a number of Trinity students are seeking more information and possible solutions to various dilemmas confronting public and private agencies.

The Red Cross, for example, is keeping a sharp eye towards work being conducted in the basement of Boardman Hall where fifth-year engineering students are attempting to separate white corpuscles from red cells in the blood.

The project started 13 months ago by Daniel Drury and Hugo Luke, as part of a masters thesis in the joint Trinity-RPI Engineering program, is one of the most important research efforts now being conducted on the campus ..

Successful separation of white corpuscles in large numbers has eluded all of science to date. But the two Trinity students are trying a new chemical approach to separating and collecting various components of the blood.

The new method, conceived by the students after a summer of studying other methods, has drawn the enthusiastic interest of Dr. Joseph D. Bronzino, associate professor of engineering at the college and Edward Morsez MD, the director of the Connecticut Chapter, American Red Cross, both of whom suggested blood research to the students. Abandoning more commonly held techniques like the centrifuge method of spinning the corpuscles apart and grasping the chemical approach, Drury and Luke have been in close consultation with Dr. Henry DePhillips, associate professor of chemistry, who has suggested a number of approaches. The latest being tested was the introduction of a charged polymer into the blood to attract the red cells which are not charged. The initial effect has been much more dramatic and the researchers are encouraged .

It is too early to make any claims but if the students are successful it will be a major breakthrough in blood research with important implications for a number of areas including the battle against leukemia.

At the Institute of Living, Dr. Charles Stroebel, director of the Institute's experir:1ental psycholphysiology laboratories, is conducting research on

human sleep patterns and a device designed and produced by Trinity­students is helping him conduct his research.

The device, originally worked on by George Minukas, '69, in the Hallden Engineering Laboratories, was perfected and improved by Alan Clearwaters, '70, under the supervision of Dr. Bronzino, who in addition to teaching at Hallden is a research associate of Dr. Stroebel's. The Clearwater invention is an automatic sleep reading device which allows the lab researcher to get some sleep himself while recording someone else's slumber.

Several other Trinity students have volunteered to assist in the research, like Roderick Cameron, who volunteered to have his sleep monitored by the electrodes and James Stufflebeam, '71, who monitors a sleep scoring machine which tells researchers whether the sleeper is dozing, sleeping heavily, lightly or dreaming.

The Newington Home for Crippled Children is indebted to Scott Duncan, who, for a masters thesis in engineering, designed a children's seat for the Radiotone X-ray machine. The seat,

· originally designed for adults, was not functional for pelvic x-rays of children because youngsters would have to kneel on it for correct body placement.

Working with Dr. Robert L. Fisher MD, Duncan put his engineering skill to work and successfully designed a seat so that children would be held firmly and comfortably while the x-ray machine turned.

In the Hallden Engineering Laboratory Little All-American halfback Dave Kiarsis, '71, has become an expert in the uses of the PDP-8 computer and now is preparing a series of self-teaching programs on focal and basic languages so that others may learn about the computer while actually using it.

Professor August Sapega of the Engineering Department calls Kiarsis his "right arm" on the PDP-8 computer and can convincingly illustrate how involved his hero of the gridiron became in computer work. Dave programs the computer for student-use and on "Super-Bowl" Sunday when most sports fans were watching the pros battle, Kiarsis was in Hallden helping some student users with the computer.

The self-teaching series which Kiarsis is developing has been funded by the Connecticut Research Commission and is one of II projects involving 13 Trinity students that was approved for funding by a student-screening committee

Clinton Vince, '71, Robert Arceci, '72 and Michael Sooley, '72, all members of the Urban and Environmental Studies Advisory Committee agreed to evaluate the proposals and recommend individual grants.

The computer project by Kiarsis was one of those approved and the committee recommended $100 to help support this effort. The largest award, $250, went to Alex Trocker, '74, and James Preston, '72 to work on "Multi-media curriculum extension of Urban and Environmental Studies" which would involve the preparation of multi media mini units using tape recorders, projectors and slides.

Stufflebeam was awarded $I 00 for his work in automatically classifying states of sleep and Gary Dibble, '7 I researching in the area of oxygen dependency received $125 support for his project entitled "Effects of Anaerobosis on Developmental Patterns in Rana pipiens."

The amount of monetary support offered by the evaluating committee was based on the budget request by the student researchers. Other projects, requiring less financial support, are no less important to the researcher and were approved by the committee for "potential in contributing to the individual's or other's education and motivation, including all or part of the College or surrounding community."

Kevin Sullivan, '71 is conducting "Biographical Research in B1ack Studies; Miss Patricia Clark, '72 is making an "Analysis of the Politics and Legislation

. Associated with Governmental Aid to Private Colleges," and William Caldwell, '72 is making an "Analysis of Current Legislation Dealing with Revenue Sharing."

COMPUTER STUDY - One of several student projects funded by Connecticut Research Commission is one originated by Dave Kiarsis shown here preparing series of programs for students to teach themselves how to use the computer by using it.

There are all kinds of student research going on around on and off the campus. The projects listed here ranging from man's blood to the Gray Fish by no means exhaust the list of student inquiry. The probes for knowledge and quests for solutions to puzzling questions goes on quietly every day in the laboratories, th~ classrooms and the library .

Student research and study does not produce headlines as do some other kinds of student activities but it is very much a part of the college life. Research adds to the growth and education of the individuals involved and in many cases the knowledge derived from student works will contribute to improving man's life and in some instances may prolong it.

Text Of President's 197 1 - 72 Budget Message The budget process has been

completed. This article addresses itself to the results of the decisions reached by faculty, administrators, and Trustees-and less directly by students and parents.

The budget for 1971-72 rests upon certain assumptions:

1. The financial constraint at Trinity and in higher education is not temporary; every study with which I am acquainted forewarns that the difficulties will not disappear within a year or two.

2. The budget must be balanced in a manner consistent with our maintaining academic excellence.

3. It must reflect a pervasive effort to increase efficiency, or stated in economic terms, to improve our cost effectiveness.

4. The budget must not incorporate commitments which involve long-range, built-in fiscal increases.

5. In solving its financial problem, the College must not foresake equity and fairness to those who serve at Trinity. Perforce such guidelines are general, but they reflect a conviction that colleges are under . greater cost pressures than other enterpri~es in this country at this time and that there are no off setting advantages comparable to the declines in prices during the Great Depression. We have to reckon with inflation even as we are unable to anticipate quantitative jumps in our income.

Therefore, this analysis should begin with revenues versus expenditures in the broadest terms. Between 1963 and 1971 revenues (tuition income, endowment income, gifts, and grants) have risen at an .average of 9.4% per year; expenses have increased during this period at an average annual rate of 9.5% For those same years the College has grown and increased its physical facilities extensively. However, the experience of the past two years has led to a decrease in the expenditures of 7.9% annually while income has gone up 8.4% each year so as to close the gap created by two years of deficits prior to 1970-71. Meanwhile inflation climbed to 6.3% in 1970.

On the revenue side of the ledger, tuition represents 69.1% of the total income in education and general. (Once again, it is our assumption that auxiliary enterprises-dining, dormitories, bookstore, etc.-will be self-sufficient except for the deficit in Mather Hall.) Endowment income is 18.8% of total

'Budget Is Tight ... But In Balance'

income in education and general, and I am pleased to report that on a per student basis endowment income will rise from $763 to $788 in 1971-72.

On the expenditure side, direct instruction costs in 1971-72 represent 35.7% of the total; student aid 11.9%, Library 5.1 %, maintenance 15 .4%, and administrative services 23.1%. The balance is in such items as graduate and summer studies, athletics, etc. Over the period 1963-70, student aid increased 173%, maintenance costs 98%, instruction and Library 85%, administrative and student services 82% and administrative services alone 46%. The point of all these statistics is to show the philosophical emphasis which has been expressed in the budget; but · these figures do not explain the deCisions taken for next year.

REVENUES I shall first refer to the revenue figures.

The tu~tion total assumes an average student body of 1495, twenty more than in 1970-71. Incorporated in the projection is an increase in tuition of $200, as indicated last year. The total also includes graduate and summer schools. Any analysis of the budget quickly reveals how difficult it would be to balance the books were the College not to increase tuition and slightly increase the student body. By comparison to other comparable private colleges in the Northeast, Trinity will remain among those with a lower total cost and our tuition will be less than many.

.In previous years I have received more questions about our endowment income and portfolio than any other area of the budget. The market value of Trinity's endowment is $25,400,000 as of December 31, 1970. Obviously what happens in the market over the coming year can significantly affect the income we have budgeted. The College is seeking to combine a good yield with long-term growth in the portfolio. During the past six months, we have made considerable adjustments, particularly in the bond

holdings so as to increase our yield. The Hartford National Bank, which manages Trinity's account, compared the results for our portfolio against the Standard and Poor's 500 and against the Weisenberger Balanced Mutual Fund index and discovered that we have done 5.98% better than the former and 5.49% better than the latter during the previous twelve months. The Finance Committee feels that we have made progress. However, since income from endowment represents only 18.8% of the total revenues in educational and general, even a continuing rise in the market and in our yield produces but modest shifts in our income picture. We have projected a reasonable increase for next year.

Gifts and grants depend upon many factors: the market, the mood, and the College's programs. We hope to achieve our goal for this year and we are cautiously optimistic about next year. But we have learned that in economically uncertain times, it is illusory to predict a major rise in giving. We shall be able to use some of the $200,000 Mellon grant, and we shall have some new money such as the NSF COSIP grant. Perhaps the most important consideration for increasing gifts and grants will be a resumption of public confidence, so rudely jarred by events on campuses during the last three years. To turn the proposition around, without substantial annual giving Trinity cannot meet its operating expenses.

No one knows at this time what, if any, assistance the State of Connecticut may ' provide to independent institutions. What is clear is that within the next two or three years colleges cannot bank upon new infusions of public monies.

EXPENSES Most people are more interested in

how we spend the money than in the sources of our revenues. The single most important expense is the instructional program. Of the $2,581,000 listed, approximately $2,200,000 will be spent on the undergraduate instruction. That figure includes faculty salaries and

departmental supplies and equipment. The balance will go for graduate and summer school programs. The College projects a break-even operation in the graduate and summer instruction. Fortunately with respect to the instructional program Trinity has not had to resort to the cutting process being used at so many institutions this coming year: we have continued with our salary increases, and we are holding faculty size constant. One reason we have been able to avoid cuts in this segment of budget is the growth in the student body over the past three years, thus in effect increasing faculty productivity.

The Library is too important a resource to permit trimming. Although the increase is only 4% for next year, the additions will permit the necessary salary increases and improvement in services although book purchases will probably remain about the same as this year's.

Student aid at Trinity grew more rapidly than any other item in the budget. As I have remarked before, the College cannot continue the pace it once set. Painful though it is to level off, we have no feasible .alternative. No doubt the first question to arise is why the revised estimate for 1970-71 is lower than the original budget figure of $740,000 There are two main explanations: students to whom we offered aid did not come at the last minute, and students who withdrew or whose need declined have not expended funds originally allocated. We have taken these normal occurrences into account in setting $757,000 as our budget for next year, which figure includes State reimbursements also. Note that the total represents an increase but one considerably less than the original request for 1971-72. Student aid still represe-nts 12% of the total expenditures in educational and general.

In keeping with our decision last year w·e have asked that the athletic department hold the line on their expenses and live within what is admittedly an extremely tight budget- a budget which does not, I should point out, include salaries since these are included in faculty salaries.

In this same regard last year we put heavy constraints on administrative expenses. We cannot be so stringent in 1971-72 for three main reasons. First, we have had to absorb into the budget the

added cost of the Community Relations Office, institu tiona! long-range planning, and counsellors for undergraduates. Second, many administrative services cover items most directly affected by inflation, such as printing. During the coming year these areas of the budget will receive· careful scrutiny; but, so long as students, faculty, and alumni want the College to perform these services, we will have to pay for them. Third, in an inflationary period administrative officers deserve salary increases as much as any

The other major expense in auxiliary enterprises is Mather Hall. Vandalism and the decline in public use of a facility already heavily committed to student events and activities has .1reduced the income. We assume that we shall not receive from the concessions more than $8000 in 1971-72. The expense of maintaining the facility, staffing it, and keeping it in fairly good repair will be approximately $134,000. That deficit is covered by the excess of income over expense in educational and general.

"Although we face no immediate financial crisis, we still

sibility with academic quality. "

personnel, especially when the same number of persons must handle an ever-increasing volume of work.

That segment of the budget which has risen most dramatically is maintenance. It is projected to rise 10%. Why? This budget includes the cost of utilities, and these have risen sharply. For example, in 1969-70 utilities cost the College $190,360; this current year we estimate the cost will be $322,600. The union contract also raised costs in an understandable but nonetheless real way. Another revealing fact is that 75% of the costs are fixed, like utilities: we have rei atively little latitude in which to exercise discretion. And, regret_tably, this budget does not provide for as substantial renovations as we would like.

One other new item deserves mention. Trinity will pay an estimated $50,000 next year in unemployment compensation under the new State and Federal provisions. This particular cost illustrates one of the reasons why so many colleges and universities have had such ifficulty balancing expenses and income : items over which we have no control continually intrude themselves on the budget.

Outside of the educational and general portion of the budget, the College will spend approximately $897,000 on its residence halls, $426,0p0 in dining, and $245,000 in the bookstore. Let me comment on each of these separately.

In our residence halls we have the costs of maintenance, utilities, repair, and

renovation, and the interest and principal for the loans used to construct the newer buildings. As costs have risen, we have been forced to raise rents and shall do so this coming year. The room rent will be $700 a year in 1971-72. Included in the total expenses for · residences will be apprcximately $65,000 for renovations. Were we to try to do more in improving our facilities we would have to charge a higher rental. We have chosen to spread this cost over a few years rather than in one major hike.

Trinity has been fortunate in the good management of the food service. Despite the rise in food prices, we have held the price of board to a comparatively low figure. We cannot continue to provide the present quality AND make renovations in our dining hall without a small increase in the cost. Next year the board fee will be $600, a 3.5% annual rise- less than the inflationary factor. From the $40 increase we shall place approximately $20 towards the improvements to be carried out this summer. Once again, we regret having to transfer these shifts in the general economy to students and parents, but we have no other resource through which to absorb these costs.

The bookstore barely breaks even. We have made changes in keeping with the recommendations of the faculty-student committee last year. We intend to study carefully future changes which might improve the service and prevent a deficit. As always we welcome suggestions in this regard.

The budget for 1971-72 is tight. The College could not agree to many worthy proposals for additional expenditures next year in the light of the revenues which we have forecast. We have no operating reserves upon which to draw. We have loans outstanding which we would like to reduce since we must pay interest on them. Yet, lest the prospects seem too bleak, the College budget is in balance again next year, a situation whieh has become · increa~ingly rare among independent institutions. I need not repeat what has already appeared in newspaper articles week after week about the financial plight of independent colleges.

Although we therefore face no immediate financial crisis, we still have a long-range task if we are to combine fiscal responsibility with academic quality. That is why I am particularly pleased that Professor Ward Curran has agreed to serve as director of institutional planning for two years. We need to use the coming year to analyze the future implications of our present expenditure priorities. The Trustees are studying how best we may increase our income. From these efforts will come, I am convinced, a solution to Trinity's future which is both academically and economically reasonable.

BUDGET (from page 1)

long as students, faculty and alumni want the College to perform these services, we will have to pay for them."

Some of the other expense items noted for the coming year include:

o a I 0% rise in maintenance with utilities accounting for $322,600 of the projected $945,000 budget (utilities in I 969-70 cost the College $190,360).

o expenditures for improvements in residence halls ($897 ,000), in dining facilities ($426 ,000) and in the bookstore ($ 245 ,000). .

o an estimated payment of $50,000 in unemployment compensation under the new State and Federal provisions.

In concluding his report, President Lockwood referred to "worthy proposals" which could not be considered because of the revenue forecast.. .the lack of "operating reserves upon which to draw" .. . and outstanding loans "we would like to reduce since we must pay interest on them."

"Yet, lest the prospects seem too bleak, the College budget is in balance again next year, a situation which has be c orne increasingly rare among independent institutions."

He added that from continued analysis of expenditures priorities and studies about how best to increase income "will come, I am convinced, a solution to Trinity's future which is both academically and economically reasonable."

Text of President's Drug Statement TO: Members of the Trinity College Community

The use of drugs has become so widespread a danger in society that no college or university can ignore the problem. For that r reason we issue1 an interim policy statement in March of 1969 and have since asked the Trinity College Council to prepare a new statement of policy. We also appointed a Drug Advisory Committee to work ow some aspects of the question. Certain members of the College staff are available to those who become involved so that they may obtain appropriate confidential counseling and medical assistance. Their services have been effective, and we encourage their use by students who find need for them. We have been and still are concerned with preventing the serious difficulties which arise for the individual from illegal drug usage and from illegal drug distribution.

There are, however, other aspects to illegal drug usage and distribution, and recent events require both that we all be fully informed of the possible consequences and that the College's position be as clear as possible. Therefore, 1 am issuing the following regulations to become effective immediately. In so doing I hope that we may all become aware of the deleterious effects which drugs and the traffic in drugs may have upon the individual and upon the welfare of the academic community. We shall continue to keep you informed, and we trust that each person will be fully conscious of the obligation to see that we meet the drug phenomenon forthrightly and fairly.

Regulations which become applicable as of April 12, 1971 :

I. Students are expected to be aware of and to observe the Connecticut and Federal statutes concerning the illegal p ·ossession, distribution, sale, manufacture, prescription, and/or administration of those drugs which "contain any quantity of a substance which has been designated as subject to federal narcotic laws, or which has been designated as a depressant or

DRUGS (from page I)

Reaction to the President's stand was mixed on campus but received general support off campus. Student reaction ranged from "long overdue" to "shock and disappointment."

The main criticism, articulated by the Tripod editorially, was shock and anger that the President seemingly had acted on his own and, said the Tripod, "belies three years of rhetoric urging student participation in College governance."

President Lockwood had acted in the absence of suggested regulations from the Trinity College Council, and after the Drug Advisory Committee, appointed specifically to study the problem, had failed to come up with any recommendations for College regulations concerning drug usage after a year of deliberation. Although the council had made recommendations concerning policy toward convicted felons, it had not received Dr. Lockwood's approval and the Drug Advisory Committee had articulated a philosophical approach to drugs, but it had not included any suggestions for regulations concerning offenses.

In his letter to students, President Lock wood wrote _" ... recent events require

stimulant drug pursuant to federal food and drug laws, or which has been designated by the public health council and commissioner of consumer protection pursuant to section 19-451 as having a stimulant, depressant, or hallucinogenic effect upon the higher functions of the central nervous system and as having a tendency to promote abuse or psychological or physiological dependence, or both. Controlled drugs are classifiable as

both that we all be fully informed of the possible consequences and that the College's position be as clear as possible."

He did not explain what he meant by "recent events" but it was generally known that five Trinity students had been arrested in previous weeks and two had been convicted of possession and sale of illegal drugs. Both the arrests and the convictions were noted in the press.

The Tripod criticized the President's regulation which required students convicted of drug violations to have to submit to an administrative-faculty hearing before action on an application for readmission, and the paper deplored the pre-trial administrative hearing to determine if a student should remain on campus.

Subsequent to the issuing of the policy the two students who were convicted of drug violations applied for readmission. One of the students had served a sentence, mostly during the spring recess and the other was out on an appeal. Both were readmitted to the College following an administrative-faculty hearing and review by the President. A third student withdrew from the College as the Reporter went to press.

As the College settled into the remaining weeks of the term, most students seemed resigned to the new policy while the Tripod continued its editorial criticism.

amphetamine-type, barbiturate-type, cannabis-type, cocaine-type, hallucinogenic, morphine-type and other stimulant and depressant drugs. Specifically exlcuded from controlled drugs are alcohol, nicotine and caffeine."

2. Although the College wishes to counsel, aid, and advise individuals and groups who are having difficulty with drugs, the College may find itself obligated to apprise the appropriate public agencies when it has knowledge of violations because the possession, use, sale, manufacture, prescription or distribution of illegal drugs is an offense against Connecticut and Federal laws.

3. In the event that a student currently enrolled at Trinity is charged by any public agency with possession, use,

. sale, distribution, manufacture, or prescripton of illegal drugs, there will be an immediate administrative hearing to determine whether the continued presence of that student on campus is considered to be detrimental to the well-being of the College.

4. If found guilty by a judge or convicted in a court of such charges, the student will be separated from the College and may be readmitted only after an administrative-faculty review hearing. Nothing in these regulations alters our

concern to help those individuals who wish counseling on drugs. Our hope is that we can maintain a healthy campus community, a prospect severely jeopardized by the use of dangerous drugs and by certain activitie's related to drugs. The welfare of Trinity College requires that we frankly recognize the risks involved and continue to search for effective means to solve this problem.

We know "how good it is when good fellows get together."

CHARLIE and Ruth TUCKER had a vacatiqn in Spain and Portugal. They found the golf courses easy, and the natives were amazed at the low scoring turned in by the genial West Hartford couple.

Your SECRETARY'S bride has presented Trinity with a Revere bowl to be known as the John A. Mason Award to be awarded annually in a squash racquets round-robin competition. The next match will be January 28 and 29, 1972 with Trinity hosting Bowdoin, Hobart, Trinity and Wesleyan.

No news is not good news. The paucity of my class correspondence is only equaled by the number of taxpayers who file early. Puhleeze- send me some news, BOB LAU. Where are you?

The lost is found. After years of being in the missing persons category ART STOLZ h~s be•m located (thanks to HARRY OLSON) in the drowsy hamlet of Washington, D.C. To be exact 2511 Randolph Street N.E. Art drop me a line and tell me what's what.

Dr. DAVID MOSER, ·family physician in Rocky Hill, has added to his medical career a political dimension. He is known as the "Maverick Mayor" of Rocky Hill - perhaps the only mayor in Connecticut who is also a doctor. A staunch supporter of the old family doctor style of medicine, Dave says he enjoys becoming a "sort of ex-officio member of my patients' families ." He entered politics because "I didn't like what politicians in both parties were doing." Though a Republican, as mayor he exercises political independence in decisions• and appointments. He is reported as saying that the high point of his career while in the Army Medical Corps during the World War II occurred in 1946. 'The Yankees came to Panama (where George was stationed) for their spring training, and, believe it or not, I X-rayed Joe DiMaggio's ulcer."

Your Secretary ventured back to Trinity this past fall and witnessed the exciting Williams football game in which the Bantams squeeked through 35-28 by a late fourth quarter spurt. The game was made even more exciting for me as I was sandwiched between two "Price Behemoths" (SCOTT and father Burt) and was often trampled as they rose to cheer the rallying Blue and Gold . SCOTT and his wife Ann have season tickets and have become part of the "tailgate" set enjoying cocktails and lunch prior to each home game. Great fun! Also during the weekend I saw BOB SHAY who was with his charming wife and small son. They truly looked like the ideal family from a picture book. "Spider" has indeed polished some of the collegiate rough edges. Wish I could say the same. GREG PETRAKIS and PAUL BEMIS were also seen in the stands with bull horns and cow bells.

Later on in the fall season during the alumni homecoming weekena, even more of the Class of '55 were treated to an exciting football victory, this time over Amherst. Some of the old time funmaking was shared by DICK and Joan ROYSTON, GEORGE and Tinka LUNT, JOE and Betty REINEMAN, DICK and Mary McREA, PHIL and Suzie TRUITT, KIT and Barbara MORGAN, and last but not least "SCOTT and Ann PRICE. The dinner after the game was so hilarious the participants could hardly do justice to the main course as they were all doubled with laughter. BOBBY FREEMAN and BRUCE WHITMAN also partook of the merriment. DAVE HOAG, sporting the latest in hair transplant, could not make dinner due to a previous engagemeht.

Aetna Life has named JOE RICCARDO to the positiqn of Director, Financial Statements, Corporate Accounting Department.

On a recent trip to Cincinnati, I had a chance to visit with DAVE and Shirley ROBERTS. Their big news is the forthcoming arrival of off-spring no. 7. Also when in Cincinnati, I bumped into GEORGE KENNEDY who told me he was in the midst of a move from Indianapolis. Actually, his stay in Hoosier land was a brief one as he had just made the move from Atlanta within the last 12 months. George is with Howe Aluminum.

NAI CHANG continues to live in New Rochelle. During my visit to Trinity, I enjoyed seeing again some of his early paintings which Roy Dath has hanging in his home.

News from classmates continues to "pour" in. At least your public relations officers help to keep us informed. Tis better than ...

Word from TOM REESE is that he bought a home next to a golf course at 1023 West briar Drive, Vienna, Virginia, and looks forward to those good golf days ahead.

GENE REFALVY has been promoted to vice president of Marine Midland Bank-New York in charge of the Commodity Financing Division of the International Banking Department. GENE, wife, and five children, live on Center Street, Clinton, New Jersey.

While wife, Linda, cares for the new baby, Les works as financing manager at the Atlantic Richfeild's corporate headquarters in New York City. In Washington,- D.C. GUY DOVE has recently opened a local office for the investment banking fum of Drexel Firestone, Inc. JOHN STAMBAUGH bought a new house last spring at 156 Luce Road, Williamstown, Mass 01267 not too far from Williams where he works . .

Received a call from MIKE PERLMAN last week. He has been "released" from the Air Force and is now living at 37 Fernleaf Avenue, Longmeadow, Mass. 01106 . He is working for the State of Massachusetts as a psychiatrist dealing with the courts and juvenile offenders (did I get that right, Mike?). An address change for TOM A.

Joe and wife, Eugenia, live in Little Silver, New Jersey with their two children.

A letter arrived last week from ROGER MacMILLAN who is serving with the Navy as a medical adviser to Quan Tin Province I Corps in Vietnam . His observations and comments should be included in their entirety · but alas, space limits force me to excerpt his letter. Roger's main job is a surgeon, and he works in the Provincial Hospital. Each of the 44 provinces in Vietnam has one big hospital-Quan Tin Hospital has 360 beds, but is always caring for so many more people, many victims of shrapnel. The beds are without sheets and matresses, in many cases, and the poor food, marginal nursing care and sanitary conditions all offer problems. The lack of a sense of urgency and the desire to maintain harmony and not losing "face" doesn't help the medical situation either. Roger will return to the states in August and has been assigned to Providence Naval Base. You're almost a shortimer, Roger.

ED and Barbara WAXLER welcome daughter, Caroline, last December. Ed finished his fellowship in cardiology last June and is now in private practice.

Lel m~ apologize to all of you for the recent lack ·of .nt!ws about '67, but this has been the product of many things. I recently accepted a position as district manager with Equitable in Philadelphia. Realizing this might not be enough to keep me busy 24 hours a -day, I figured a nice follow-up might be marriage . So, on April 3, Miss Nancy M. Harbison of Philadelphia became Mrs. Robert E. Brickley. Again, my apologies to all of you for the recent paucity of news.

Word reached the Alumni Office in February that ALLEN ELSTEIN has been promoted to actuarial assistant with Connecticut Mutual Life. AI received his M.A. from Penn State in 1969 and recently became an associate fellow of the Society of Actuaries with the successful completion of the required exams.

JOHN CHARNESKI writes from his new residence on Oahu's north shore in Hawaii. He and his wife, along with their three-year-old son, have in John's words, "Been climbing palm trees, trimming monkey pod trees and pushing the revolution." What's that, John- $1.25/hr?

JESS BREWER writes wondering if the alumni secretary is computerized and if not, to whom should he address his correspondence. As you see from the above heading, Jess, my name and address will remain the deep dark

· secret it has always been in the past. Only kidding, Jessey. Mr. Brewer, whose excellence on the track at Trinity will always be remembered, reports that he still struggles with West Coast track as a second string intermediate hurdler. Having completed one year towards his Ph.D . in elementary particle physics at Berkeley, Jess and his wife, Suzanne, are living in New Nairobi, Calif., where Suzanne is working towards her R.N. degree at Stanford come spring.

WILSON KURY was recently discharged from the Army after serving in Vietnam and is presently pursuing an M.B.A. in Palo Alto, Calif.

A recent open house on the Trinity campus featured DON LIVINGSTON, formerly with the Peace Corps in Guatemala.

The Philadelphia chapter of the Trinity Alumni Association held its annual affair recently. In attendance were JOHN HONISS and DAVE ANDERSON. John continues to enjoy his career at the St. Andrews School of Delaware, while David is pursuing a law career in Wilmington. Noticeably absent was CALHOUN WICK whom I left just last evening. Plans for his upcoming marriage prevented Cal from attending.

My sincere apologies to PHIL MAYER whose frequent communications with both my predecessor, PETE RESNICK, and myself have somehow been overlooked in the past. Phil writes from Louisville, Kentucky, where he is in his senior year. of medical school. He was recently elected president of his student government. Not to stop there, Phil has further distinguished himself as a recently named member of "Who's Who in American Universities and Colleges, 1970-71." Phil still fmds time with the rigors of medical school to serve as co-editor of the college newsletter, "Larnynx." Congratulations Phil. Certainly someone with such credentials and accomplishments should never go unnoticed.

GEOPF TILDEN sent us a short note from the Solebury School, New Hope, Pa., where he has been named director of boarding boys. He and wife, Leigh, are the proud parents of a baby girl, Rebecca. That old AD spirit continues to make its mark promoting the United States population expansion and

· program. JOHN HEVNER and his wife Anne are

delighted with the birth of a baby girl, Jennifer Riddle.

ROB WEBSTER and wife, Cindy, have made residence in Tallahassee, Florida, where Rob holds a position as chairman of the science department at the Maclay School. Not bad, Webby!

PAUL STEIN has mastered the tasks Vanderbilt Law School threw his way and graduated number one in his class. What a thrill that must have been, Paul. Paul and his bride, the former May Briget McCabe, are making their home in Staten Island, New York, where

Paul is pursuing a law career with Simpson, Thatcher and Bartlett.

Hi STEVE GRIGGS and Smitty! Smitty of course is Steve's cute wife, Suzanne. Steve writes, "I am now in my first year of teaching at the Thatcher School in Ojar, California. I am teaching French and coaching varsity soccer, lacrosse (a winter sport here) and baseball. We have a girl, Arnie, one and a half years old, and Smitty is expecting another child in May." Whew! There's the AD zest agaip.

STROTHER SCOTT is at the stage of ending one career and beginning another, having been discharged from the Army after serving in Vietnam. Among other things, he served as an advisor to local police and intelligence agencies. "So, now I need a job," he says. Any of you requiring an advisor able to communicate in Vietnamese can reach Strother at Bundoran Farm, North Garden, Virginia 22959. Strother also writes that HOD CAULKINS remains with the Duke Investment Fund in New York as an investment analyst.

STEWART BARNS is currently with the Episcopal Theological Seminary in Cambridge and is associated as well with Trinity Church, Copley Square, Boston. He is helping the rehabilitation programs with drug addicts among other things.

DAVE CRAVER is in London having won a battle giving him service discharge as a conscientious objector.

I received a very thoughtful letter from Frederick G. Ludwig Sr., regarding his son and our friend FREDERICK G. (RICK) LUDWIG JR. Mr. Ludwig reported on January 10, 1971 that Rick is currently in the Gulf of Tonkin off North Vietnam aboard the carrier "Kitty Hawk." He holds the rank of full lieutenant and pilots an F-4-j Phantom Fighter Bomber. Should things go well for Rick in the next few months he will be married to Nonell Roth of St. Louis Missouri.

Gentlemen and parents that covers the Class of '67 for another few months. I was certainly pleased with the flow of information both from classmates and parents. Please know that I can and will only function as your secretary when news is provided . Good luck to all of you and let me hear from you.

RobertS. Morris 16 Dies; Was Trustee, Chronologist

Robert Seymour Morris, trustee emeritus, died March 28 at a local convalescent home after a long illness. Born in 1893 iri Hartford , he was a resident of West Hartford most of his life . He was president of Robert S. Morris and Co. , an investment firm he founded in 1932.

Mr. Morris was graduated from Hartford Public High School in 1912 and entered Trinity as a member of the Class of 1916. During his undergraduate days, he provided the clue of what might be expected of him later in life.

He was a member of the varsity track and football teams for four years, including the undefeated football eleven of 1915 ; a leader oL the Glee Club; president of his class in his sophomore year ; elected to the Sophomore Dining Club and Medusa ; president of his fraternity , Alpha Chi Rho; served on the Senate ; was president of Class Day.

He was assistant d~ of physical education and won the Mears Prize for excellence in physical education. He was graduated with a B.S. degree in 1916 and earned an M.S . degree in 1917 . He served as coach of the 1917 football team.

In the years following his graduation, Mr. Morris served his alma mater with great distinction. He was a member of the Board of Fellows, 1928-1941 ; Alumni Trustee, 1941-1947; Life Trustee, 1948-1963; Trustee Emeritus, I 963 until his death . He was president of the National Alumni Association, 1940-1942; national chairman, Program of Progress, 1955-1958. Mr. Morris also served as chairman of the Arts Center Steering Committee, 1959-1963 ; the Development Council, 1964.

In recognition of his contributions to h,s College , he was awarded the Eigenbrodt Cup in 1949 and received an honorary Doctor of Laws degree in 1965. He served as Class Secretary since his graduation. For many years he was Class Agent and was recipient of the Alumni Fund Trophy for seven consecutive years . He interested his classmates in establishing the 1916 Scholarship Fund.

To stimulate more informal singing on campus, Mr. Morris inaugurated the Interfraternity Sing competition and endowed a trophy in 1939. He established the Helen Loveland Morris Prize in Music in 1963.

In 1953 he established the Robert S. Morris Track Trophy which is awarded annually to the most valuable member of the varsity track team.

Mr. Morris compiled and edited the "Trinity College Song Book" and has written numerous articles and monographs on various phases of life at the College.

Two published books and one now on the press stand as testimony to Mr. Morris' voluminous files of Trinitiana and his meticulous attention to details pertaining to Trinity . In 1955 he published "Pigskin Parade at Trinity"

which traced in colorful detail the history of the sport at the College from 1877, when Yale was the sole opponent, to the fifth undefeated team of 1954. In 1966 a second volume was published which added another 10 years of gridiron history at the College.

In 1968, Mr. Morris published "Track at Trinity," a history of the sport at the College from its early beginnings in the 1870s through 1967 .

Crew, Lacrosse, Track Start Quickly The varisty crew, lacrosse and track

squads and a women's tennis team all broke fast from the starting gate as the brief but hectic spring sports season blossomed into full flower.

Ladies first! Six coeds combined tennis victories to give the distaff side their first intercollegiate victory of the new season with a 5-2 decision over Central Connecticut State College women. Winners of single matches for

UP AND OVER - Martin Tong clears the pole vault bar for track points.

Trin were Starr Badger, Susan Martin, Erica Dempel and Frances Rhlen. Ruth Wiggins and Cynthia Keller combined for the double victory.

Other matches are scheduled for May and a women's lacrosse team has been formed with two games slated for later in the season.

Stroked by sophomore David Brown the varisty heavyweight crew glided past Amherst, C. W. Post and WPI and sprinted past the Coast Guard Academy for a 4-0 early season record. The victory over the Cadets, with WPI a distant third, provided Trinity with its fourth straight Mason-Downs Cup victory which was duly presented by half-cup John Mason and half-cup Norton Downs, in whose honor the Friends of Trinity Rowing established the prize in 1964.

Ohio State's highly touted lacrosse team made its spring training camp at Trinity at the invitation of Dr. Chet McPhee (who received his Ph.D. from OSU) and the move seemed to pay off. Trinity scrimmaged the Buckeyes once while they were here, played the congenial host the rest of the week and then opened the season here like a Bit Ten unit drubbing Bowdoin 8-3 and crushing Holy Cross 17-5 after stumbling to Union, 605.

Top scorers in the early going were Spoke Birmingham, Scott Phillips, Sheldon Crosby, Bob Atwater and Spencer Knapp.

Believe it or not, but after running, jumping, hurling and straining through some 18 events the Trinity and Amherst track teams ended deadlocked at 75-75 The Bantams made sure next time out and left no doubt in drubbing Middlebury, 91-63.

Some double winners for Trin were Tom Buchenau in the long jump and high hurdles, Glenn Ryer in the high jump, Gary Czajkowski in the triple jump and Ed Raws in the discus.

Bill Foster pitched a seven-hitter and Bob Ghazey batted-in three runs and John Neuner five runs as the Bants defeated Coast Guard 8-2 for its first win of the season. In pre-season Trin has been 2-1 against Washington, D.C. area schools but not until the Coast Guard dash had the Trin nine broken the ice in the regular schedule.

Dave Heinlein and co-captain Pete Wentz did their part by winning their respective matches but the gold team still lost its operner to Worcester Tech 4\6 to 214.

Stroke by Steven Prudden, the lightweight crew sped past Marist but vainly chased Columbia in its opener. The crew, which must average 155 pounds or less, were a close third behind Yale and

M.I.T. in the next outing but came back strong in a third test by sweeping C. W. Post and Univ. of R.I.

Despite some setbacks and disappointments all squads were going full tilt with morale high as Trin men and women prepared to turn the corner in the spring schedule.
