Raymond McConnell keynoted the 4th Annual Class Agent Reception, held Wednesday evening, October 25th, at the Buffalo Athletic Club, by pointing convincingly to the needs of the University and the importance of the Alumni Loyalty Fund in their satisfaction. —- The alumni leaders upon whom the Loyalty Fund depends annually for its success listened and applauded enthusiastically often as the new Chancellor revealed his ready and able comprehension of the University's needs and his outspoken conviction that he would have alumni support in their fulfillment. Dr. McConnell cited as paramount the erection of the new Medical-Dental Building on the campus. Pointing to an artist's sketch of the proposed new building (see cut), he said, "This is a rendering based upon the actual detailed plans for the Medical-Dental Building upon which the architect is at work. In other words, this is no architect's dream. The sketch represents actual working plans. The University does not yet have all the funds necessary to complete the building but there is a committee at work on means for their procurement and there exists a feeling that they can and will be secured and that the Medical-Dental Building will be a reality in the not-distant future." Drawings and photographs were — ranged about the room and formed a graphic picture of the University's past growth and present needs. Describing the plans for the University as definitely attainable, Dr. McConnell cited as pressing requirements the construction of dormitories for men and women, a classroom and laboratory building, a replacement for Townsend Hall, and an addition to Norton Hall. "With continuous material evidence of alumni loyalty and that of the area we serve, these vital structures can become realities", said Dr. McConnell. The new Chancellor was introduced by William J. Orr, MD '20, chairman of the Alumni Loyalty Fund Committee, who emphasized the necessity of wider participation of alumni in the annual Fund. He pointed out that higher percentages of givers in every class and every division of the alumni were essential if the Fund were to be successful this year, and he exhorted the assembled Class Agents to seek 100% records for their classes. Dr. Orr then displayed an artist's sketch of the bronze and walnut plaque to be erected in Hayes Hall Lobby. The plaque will record, by years, the divisions, class agents, and classes which achieve the highest percentages of donors, and will record these records annually from 1943 forward. General Alumni Board President J. Frederick Painton, MD '27, BS (Mcd) '27, cited the investment each alumnus has in continuing the tradition of a great independent University. Hesaid, "If we are to avoid the control which government will inevitably exercise if it assumes financial burdens for education, we must get home to every fellow alumnus the importance of his annual giving to his University, The Class Agents are doing a noble service, but the very life of the University depends upon the manner and extent to which their classmates answer." The remarks of George D. Crofts, Treasurer of the University, who was unable to be present, were read by Miss Emily H. Webster, BA '23. In these, Mr. Crofts reviewed the needs of the University, praised previous alumni gifts, and stressed his confidence in alumni support in achieving a new and important step in the University's progress. Exhibits in addition to the architect's sketch of the new MedicalDental Building, included past and present air-views of the campus, a chart of alumni gifts of past years, an artist's sketch of the proposed bronze plaque for Hayes Hall lobby, a map of the campus depicting location of the proposed new buildings, and maps showing graphically the geographical distribution of University's more than 16,000 alumni. �Alumni Bulletin ..2 ALUMNI NEWS ITEMS BY CLASSES '09 AC—A reunion of the Analytical Chemistry class of '09 was held this summer when Emma B.

Dr. J. Alan Pfeffer, BA '35, MA '36, University's professor of German, during the conference was elected president of the New York State Federation of Modern Language Teachers. "Bee" & "Argus" Gone Rochester Times-Union Photo it's been 62 years since he first hung out his "shingle" in Brockport, N. V., but Horace J. Mann, MD'BB, still can't retire. His townspeople insist that he's their "Doc" and keep coming to his Main Street office. Then, too, the Town Board consistently refuses to let him retire as health officer—a position he has held for more years than he can remember. Dr. Mann was recently the subject of an article in the Rochester TimesUnion newspaper when he was honored by the Rochester Academy of Medicine during its golden jubilee celebration. Pictured above in a photographic study by Claude Brown, Dr. Mann is shown with some of his old instruments and the saddle he used in making rounds on horseback in the 1890's. How To Make Your Class 100% Every class agent inevitably checks the Alumni Loyalty Fund Honor Roll booklet when it comes in the mail every spring. Charles A. Calder, DDS '38, checked last year's Honor Roll and wasn't at all happy with the number of his class who gave. Here is what he wrote to his classmates this year. "Dear : "I noticed that last year our class had the lowest percentage of givers. It makes me feel that my efforts toward increasing this percentage have been fruitless to date, so I'll try the desperate method. "Attached to this letter is a one dollar bill. At least, please return that to the University, and sign your name to the pledge card. If your conscience makes you add some more to it, fine! It might help add one or more bricks to the new medical-dental building which is to be built soon." Well, what would you do? Yes, the class members did, too. The results? Excellent! University's student government abolished both the "Bee" and the "Argus" this month. The rival weekly newspapers were supported by allocations from student funds and, when it became necessary to cut the appropriations, both refused to merge into a single weekly with the result that both were dropped and plans initiated for one new paper. Name for the new weekly has not yet been selected. Engineer Parley Held More than 125 engineering educators and industrial leaders from all sections of New York State outside New York City gathered on campus this month for the annual meeting of the American Society of Engineering Education, Upper New York Section. Engineering's Dean Paul E. Mohn and Professor Frederick T. Thomas, section chairman and head of University's Industrial Engineering department, headed the group of University faculty who were hosts. Kimball Heads Survey School of Medicine's Dean Stockton Kimball, MD '29, has been appointed chairman of the Joint Committee on Medical Education in Time of National Emergency. The function of the group is to work out all problems relating to medical education during the current crisis and in event of another war. The committee was appointed jointly by the executive committee of the Association of American Medical Colleges and the Council on Medical Education and Hospitals of the American Medical Association.

At right, Dr. Knickerbocker poses with candidates for Homecoming Queen at halftime ceremonies. It looked like a dark day. But the rain never fell, and the football Bulls were never behind as they trounced Rhode Island State University's gridders 33-12 before an enthusiastic Homecoming1 Day crowd of alumni, students, and faculty in Civic Stadium on Saturday, October 28th. The win brought the Bulls' record to four wins against two losses. The victories have been over Cortland, Brooklyn, Alfred, and Rhode Island; losses were to Niagara and Louisville. Two games remain: against R.P.I. and Ohio University. Homecoming alumni were greeted at half-time by Chancellor T.

Pharmacy '25 Pledges Gift of $4120 When the Class of '25 in Pharmacy 25th reunion this month, took time to remember the School which had given them their start in the profession. As Clinton E. class =n t for the held its members ESlyke, mni Loyalty nd, puts it: ere was no pressure or special appeal. Fellows like Joseph M v s c at o from Van Slyke, '25 Binghamton, Morris L. Greisdorf, Hyman H. Berghash and Dr. Joseph Mancuso of Meadville, Pa., just spoke extem- poraneously. Then we circulated some cards and it was there—$4120 pledged over the next five years to the School of Pharmacy's use." Classmate Berghash thinks class members not present then will want to join in, too, so he's writing them. Paper Named "Spectrum" Despite strenuous opposition from alumni and faculty who sought to have the name and tradition of "The Bee" continue, the student Board of Managers this month decided upon "The Spectrum" as the name of the new student weekly which replaces "The Bee" and "The Argus". «r « fx 3« J* Jw IS Xt ffi T* jg ** B jS 3r jS «£ S May I extend to all alumni the University's warmest Christmas greetings and its sincere good wishes. I wish it were possible for me to greet each of you personally. One of my desires is that in the near future I shall have the opportunity to meet many more of you, and to hear your hopes for the University. Honors, distinctions, and recognition for service on the part of alumni come constantly to my attention. These achievements reflect honor on your Alvia Mater; they give the University its own sense of attainment, for in the last analysis, the lives of its graduates constitute the true measure of its quality. The manpower mobilization no win progress icill create great Unidifficulties for all private higher institutions, including the may versity of Buffalo. For some of these institutions the effect be catastrophic. The University of Buffalo, in spite of difficult times ahead, must plan for the future. No educational institution can successfully conduct a "holding operation". It will be either go forward or backward. It can go forward if all of us give it our interest, our devotion, and our best efforts. Pharmacy's Dean A. Bertram Lemon, PhG '13, termed the student action as "promiscuous changing of University traditions" which if permitted would mean that "we may anticipate a change in University colors, a change in the Alma Mater song and, indeed, in any tradition or name of years standing". Vincent J. Loughlin, LLB '22, first editor of "The Bee"; Irving R. Templeton, LLB '02, Buffalo attorney and former Law School faculty member; and Alumni-President J. Frederick Painton, MD '27, BS(Med) '27, joined Dr. Lemon in the protest. These and other alumni have indicated that they will continue to press for the restoration of "The Bee". 1950 ALUMNI «jF 15 js Wt 31 Q& ijf SL |S Jjp let » 3J xl HP jX Kfo fflf GIFTS figures as 01 uecemoer i, i»5W (Not including Special Gifts) Division No. of Donors Amount Arts & Sciences 136 $ 964.50 7 61.00 Business Administration Analytical Chemistry* 52 593.50 Dentistry 2,819.50 194 Education* 34 222.00 8 52.34 Engineering Law 91 1.562.00 Library Science* 6 44.00 12,000.00 Medicine 338 17 256.50 Nursing Pharmacy 131 1.677.00 9 38.00 Social Work Evening Session 14 155.00 2 15.00 Faculty (non-alumni) 81.15 Misc. 2 1041 J20.541.99 TOTAL ■Indicates only those without other degrees from the University of Buffalo. �2 Alumni Bulletin REPORT OF THE (Abstract) CHANCELLOR To the Council of the University of Buffalo; Two years ago it was apparent that the peak of the abnormal enrollment caused by the influx of the beneficiaries of the so-called G. I. Bill of Rights had been reached, or was about to be reached. It was apparent that the University would soon enter upon another period of transition characterized by a shrinkage of the student population and a consequent falling off of revenue from tuition fees. The demands for new services and for alterations of existing enterprises—demands resulting from the impact of the war on this region and on American society in general—had begun to make themselves felt. Some of the problems, financial and other, which the University then faced, or would shortly face, were already clear in were anticipated and in each case were smaller than had been expected. Another Sizeable Operating Surplus The Report of the Comptroller, published herewith, records that the University finished the fiscal year 1949-1950 with an operating surplus of $339,260. When the budget was adopted a year earlier it carried an estimated surplus of only $10,502. The great disparity between the estimate and the amount of surplus actually realized from the year's operations is attributable chiefly to two factors. First, the decline in the enrollment was much smaller than had been anticipated and the University's income from tuition fees was consequently much larger. In the second place, many departments did not spend the total amounts appropriated for their use. Since, also, the war emergency and the difficult postwar adjustments had temporarily checked the rate of progress in certain of the most important educational projects in which the University had been engaged for two decades or more, the time seemed to be ripe for a review and an appraisal of these. Accordingly, the last two annual reports of the Chancellor have dealt chiefly with these matters. The report for the year 1947-1948 attempted to assess the future drawing power of the several divisions of the University, and reviewed at some length the evolution of the University's principal educational innovations. The report for the year 1948-1949 presented a forecast of the enrollment that might be expected in the different divisions following the exit of the veterans, and sought to define and to account for the demand for additional educational services, especially in the field of graduate instruction. Both reports, while noting the favorable financial position of the University at the time of their preparation and recording the building up of a reserve fund to cushion the immediate shock of a sudden contraction in the scale of the institution's operations, emphasized the inadequacy of existing resources to provide a satisfactory level of salaries for the teaching staff and to support urgently needed improvements and expansions. Nothing that had occurred before the latter part of June, 1950, suggested that the estimates either of the attendance which the University might expect in the near future, or of the changing incidence of the demands confronting it, were at fault. Plans for the year 1950-1951, including arrangements for staffing the departments of instruction and the formulation of the budget, were based upon these estimates. In the few weeks that have elapsed since that date, however, the United States Government has taken the first steps toward military and industrial mobilization in order to carry out its commitment to assist the United Nations in repelling the invasion of South Korea. Up to the time of the preparation of this report the mobilization has been only partial. But the machinery of the draft is already in operation; members of the military reserves are being called into active service; young people of military age are once more beset by uncertainty and do not know what decisions to make with respect to their educational careers. It is still too early to predict the extent to which this new and wholly unforeseen situation will affect the University's enrollment during 1950-1951, or to determine whether any of its operational plans for the year will have to be seriously altered. If national mobilization should remain partial, the results of it may cause the University no great embarrassment. If, on the other hand, the Government should decide to undertake complete and rapid mobilization, all universities are likely to be profoundly affected, and in ways that cannot now be foreseen. The new Law School Building, erected on the site of the old building on Eagle Street, was completed in the early autumn of 1949 and immediately occupied. The new building is not only a strikingly effective piece of architectural design; it is also admirably furnished and equipped and should serve the needs of the Law School adequately for many years to come. In addition, all of its classrooms and lecture halls are available in the evening for the use of Millard Fillmore College. The building also provides a suite of rooms as the headquarters of the Bar Association of Erie County. The close contact thus established between active members of the bar on the one hand and the professors and students of the School on the other is already proving of mutual advantage. Minor reconstructions and alterations have continued to be made in several of the campus buildings to provide further offices and laboratory facilities. My last annual report presented a detailed discussion of three additional building needs, namely, the long projected new building to house the Schools of Medicine and Dentistry, a building to replace Townsend Hall, and another general purpose building on the campus to provide more classrooms, laboratory and office space. Developments within the year have empahsized the urgency especially of the first two of these needs. Action on the Medical-Dental Building and Townsend Hall The Committee on General Administration has been acutely conscious of the critical character of both of these situations and has devoted much time throughout the year to the consideration of the problems involved. When it became apparent that the University could look for no immediate aid from State or Federal sources to expedite the erection of the Medical-Dental Building, the Committee instructed the Committee on Buildings and Grounds to review once more with the officers of the two schools the original plans for the building to determine whether the estimated space requirements might be reduced in order to bring the project more nearly within the University's available resources. The result was a thorough revision of the preliminary plans and a sizeable reduction in the estimated cost of the structure. The revised project has the endorsement of the deans and the department heads of the two schools. The Committee on Buildings and Grounds was also authorized to engage an architect to prepare detailed plans and specifications for a building to replace Townsend Hall, and to submit the plans and specifications to contractors for competitive bidding. These actions were taken and the bids were opened by the Committee June 23, 1950. The low bids, together with the architect's fees, totaled $712,000. The Committee then voted to report to the Council that the plans and bids were acceptable, and to recommend that the Council take action at once to forward the erection of both a new Townsend Hall and the Medical-Dental INTRODUCTORY COMMENT Buildings Completed and Planned outline. PRINCIPAL EVENTS OF THE YEAR The Enrollment It was expected that the total student population of the University during the year under review would be at least 10% smaller than that of the preceding year. Actually the decline was less than 2%, The overall figures were 13,563 for the year 1948-1949 and 13,320 for 1949-1950. The principal enrollment losses occurred in the three largest campus divisions. Losses in all these divisions Building. The report of the Committee was presented to the Council at the meeting held June 27, 1950. In the course the discussion of the report the following facts and opinions were brought out: 1. The combined cost of the two building projects would probably amount to between $3,250,000 and $3,500,000. Present and prospective resources of the University that might be devoted to these purposes—without invading endowment funds or the Income Stabilization Fund of �3 December, 1950 would fall at least $1,000,000 short of the required sum, and probably more. 2. The bids submitted for the erection of the building to replace Townsend Hall must be accepted within 30 days of the date on which they were opened. 3. Detailed plans and specifications for the MedicalDental Building on which contractors could be asked to bid had not yet been prepared. 4. If the Council should proceed at once with the erection of a new Townsend Hall, the cost of that operation would have to be met from funds that might otherwise be applied to the construction of the Medical-Dental Building. Thus the latter undertaking would be still further delayed. 5. The provision of new quarters for the Schools of Medicine and Dentistry was put first among the purposes for which the Centennial Fund Campaign was conducted in 1947. Substantial subscriptions were made by the alumni and friends of both schools—many of the subscriptions being specifically earmarked for the proposed building—on the understanding that this project would take precedence over all other major additions to the University's plant. The alumni organizations of both schools, the General Alumni Board, and the central administrative officers of the University had formally gone on record as believing that the University is committed to assigning to the Medical-Dental Building first priority among future building operations. In the light of the discussion the Council voted: (a) not to accept the bids on Townsend Hall at the present time; (b) to instruct the Committee on General Administration to authorize the Committee on Buildings and Grounds to have detailed plans and specifications for the MedicalDental Building prepared and to seek bids on these as soon as they were completed; and (c) to secure new bids on the Townsend Hall plans at the same time. If work on the specifications for the Medical-Dental Building were begun forthwith, it was assumed that the bids on both projects could be laid before the Council simultaneously within five or six months. The Council also authorized the Chairman to appoint a special advisory committee of members of the Council, representatives of alumni groups and officers of the University, this committee to confer frequently with the Committee on Buildings and Grounds, to keep the alumni organizations constantly informed of the progress of the building plans, and to study the feasibility of attempting to raise additional funds by special subscription to finance one or both of the undertakings. A New Campus Building and Dormitories The Committee on Buildings and Grounds has also had preliminary plans prepared for an addition to Science Hall which would approximately treble the capacity of that structure. The cost of the addition has been tentatively estimated at $455,773. The extra space that such a building would provide would effectively relieve the overcrowding which has so seriously hampered the campus divisions during the last four years. Early in the year the Committee on Buildings and Grounds was further requested to consider the possibility of erecting residence halls on a self-liquidating basis. It has secured preliminary plans and estimates for residences for both men and women, and is presently engaged in studying the experience of other institutions with the financing of dormitory construction and operation. Establishment of a New Division On April 25, 1950, the Committee on General Administration, acting for the Council, approved establishment of a new division of the University, to be known as the Division of General and Technical Studies. It appointed Professor John A. Beane, Dean of Millard Fillmore College, Director of the Division. The Chancellor subsequently appointed a governing committee drawn from the faculties of the College of Arts and Sciences, and the Schools of Business Administration and Engineering to assist the Director in organizing the work of the Division. The Division is empowered to offer two year courses of study leading to the degrees of Associate in Arts and Associate in Applied Science. The courses will be designed to meet the needs of persons who are unable or who do not wish to enroll in one of the regular four year undergraduate curricula, but who desire to pursue a definitely organized shorter program of higher education. The background of the action creating this new administrative unit is perhaps worth reviewing. The Temporary Commission on the need for a State University, which reported to the Legislature of the State of New York in 1948, called attention to the existing deficiency of opportunities for general and technical education extending two years beyond high school graduation. It recommended that the deficiencybe remedied as rapidly as possible by the establishment of two year community colleges in the principal centers of population throughout the State. The act creating the State University of New York, passed in 1948 as the result of the Commission's report, specifically directed the Trustees of the University to prepare a master plan for the establishment of community colleges. As envisaged by the Act, the community colleges are to be public institutions financed jointly by the State and the localities. The locality and the State will each contribute half of the capital cost. The State, the locality, and the students (through tuition fees) will each pay one third of the cost of operation. During the past year the officers of the State University have been studying the need for community colleges in the several regions and have published preliminary findings. Their report notes that a shortage of definitely organized two year post high school courses of both a general and a technical character exists in the Buffalo area. Within the year, also, the Regents of the University of the State of New York have authorized the awarding of the new degrees of Associate in Arts and Associate in Applied Science to graduates of approved two year terminal courses conducted by public and private higher in- stitutions. The University of Buffalo has for a number of years granted certificates in Arts and Sciences, in Business Administration and in Engineering to students who have satisfactorily completed two years of study in these fields. For the most part, the programs for the completion of which the certificates have been given have represented fractional parts of the longer four year programs leading to the regular baccalaureate degrees. As such they have been neither as useful nor as attractive as they might have been to the students who have followed them. It seems unlikely that the City of Buffalo will take steps to establish a public community college in the near future. Meanwhile an opportunity exists for the University to render another valuable educational service to a considerable number of young people of this area. The faculties and administrative officers of the Arts College and the Schoolsof Business and Engineering were further encouraged to lay the proposal for the new division before the Council by the action of the Regents authorizing the conferral of the associate's degree. The initial programs of the new division have been approved by the State Education Department. The Speech Clinic In September, 1949, a Speech Clinic was set up under the Department of Drama and Speech of the College of Arts and Sciences. Dr. Katherine F. Thorn, Associate Professor of Drama and Speech, was designated its Director. The functions of the Clinic are the examination of persons, both students and outsiders, who are suffering from speech difficulties; the diagnosis and treatment where possible of their speech defects; the conduct of instruction in speech pathology and speech correction for students specializing in speech and for those preparing themselves for teaching careers; and cooperation with other agencies of the area which are engaged in speech therapy. The Clinic maintains close working relations with the Psychological Clinic. Teachers, psychologists and physicians have long been aware of the paucity of facilities in this region for the scientific study and treatment of speech defect. The entry of the University in this field is especially welcome not only to the Departments of Pediatrics and Otolaryngology of the Medical School and the Department of Psychology, but also to the hospitals, the public school systems and the teacher training institutions of the Niagara Frontier. The Chronic Disease Research Institute At a public ceremony held May 16, 1950, the Honorable Oscar Ewing, Administrator of the Federal Security Agency, formally transferred to the University of Buffalo the custody of the Marine Hospital of Buffalo under agreement that it be operated by the University with the cooperation of the New York State Health Department as a Chronic Disease Research Institute. The ceremony �Alumni Bulletin 4 marked the culmination of a long series of negotiations and events. The Council is familiar with the notable success of the Rehabilitation and Information Center for Alcoholism, a pioneering clinic for alcoholics, which has been conducted for the last two years under the direction of the Medical School in the Medical School Building. The demand for the clinic's services had by the autumn of 1949 so far overtaxed the physical facilities and the operating funds available that it was decided to appeal to the N. Y. Legislature for the financial support necessary to put the enterprise on a satisfactory basis. Meanwhile, the United States Public Health Service discontinued the Marine Hospital of Buffalo, and announced that the property would be declared surplus on January 1, 1950, unless it could be used for public health purposes. The Director of the Rehabilitation and Information Center for Alcoholism therefore proposed that effort should be made to acquire certain of the Marine Hospital buildings to house the Center. At this stage the New York State Public Health Department saw the possibility not only of enlarging this important pilot study of alcoholism, but also of taking the first step toward realizing a long standing plan of the Department for developing a research program in chronic diseases in each upstate region served by a medical school. Negotiations were accordingly entered into by the State Commissioner of Health, the Honorable Walter J. Mahoney, Chairman of the Finance Committee of the Senate, and officers of the University, as the result of which legislation was subsequently passed that provided for support by the State of a Chronic Disease Research Institute to be operated by the Medical School of the University of Buffalo under the general supervision of the New York State Public Health Department. For the sake of the record it is worth noting that several separate agreements involving the United States Government, the State of New York and the University (a) the United were necessary to implement the project: States Government, while retaining ownership of the to the University Hospital, assigned property Marine the to house a research institute for chronic diseases; (b) the New maintenance of the State of York undertook the property and support of a program of research in probalcoholism diseases, including lems relating to chronic to and the rehabilitation of the physically handicapped, be carried on in the buildings by the University of Buffalo; and (c) the University accepted custody of the premises and agreed to use them for an institute for research in chronic diseases. The Legislature appropriated $200,000 for the upkeep of the property and the support of the Institute in the fiscal year 1950-1951. Of this amount $50,000 was specifically budgeted for the Rehabilitation and Information Center for Alcoholism. The Center was moved to the Marine Hospital plant on June 1. 1950. Through these agreements a remarkable opportunity is presented to the Medical School to develop a far reaching program of research in the relatively little explored field of chronic disease. Moreover, no part of the cost of the undertaking is to be charged to the University's budget. Changes in Administrative Personnel Dr. Russell W. Groh resigned as Dean of the School of Dentistry on January 1, 1950, to accept appointment as Chief of Dental Service at the newly established Veterans Hospital in Buffalo. Dr. Groh retains his Professorship of Operative Dentistry and will be responsible for directing the cooperative relationship between the Veterans Hospital and the Dental School. Dr. Leon J. Gauchat, Professor of Principles of Practice, accepted appointment as Acting Dean of the School of Dentistry on January 1, 1950, and Dean of the School on May 1, 1950. Dr. Louis L. Jaffe resigned as Dean of the School of Law on June 30, 1950, to accept appointment as Professor of Law at Harvard University. Until his successor is designated the School will be administered by the Executive Committee of the Law Faculty under the chairmanship of the Dean of Administration. THE ELECTION OF A NEW CHANCELLOR On May 8, 1950, the Council unanimously elected Dr. Thomas Raymond McConnell eighth Chancellor of the University of Buffalo, to take office September 1, 1950. In the opinion of the present incumbent the choice of Dr. McConnell for the Chancellorship is an exceptionally happy one. He brings to the office a most varied experience in teaching and administration together with an unusually wide knowledge of educational conditions in the United States and in foreign countries. Through his effec- tive service on numerous national boards and commissions, and through his writings, he has won a distinguished place among the leaders of higher education in America. The University is fortunate indeed that he has consented to become its chief administrative officer. Conclusion It would be impossible for anyone to have a more rewarding professional experience than has fallen to my lot during the twenty-eight years of my connection with the University of Buffalo. That it has been so satisfying is due in large measure to the Council. As a corporate body the Council has not only given the University loyal and unstinted and highly productive service; it has also given the Chancellor consistent support in all his official activities, and consideration and honor far beyond his desserts. As individuals the members of the Council have given him as well friendship and delightful personal associations. My gratitude for all these benefits is beyond my power to express. And for the University my wish may best be summed up in the ancient Latin phrase that has been traditional in the academic world from the days of the medieval universities; Vivat, crescat, floreat in aeternum. Respectfully submitted. SAMUEL P. CAPEN, Chancellor DEAN PRATT NAMED CAPEN PROFESSOR Dr. Julius W. Pratt, historian of international fame and dean of University's Graduate School of Arts & Sciences, has been announced as the first incumbent of the Samuel P. Capen Professorship of American .. The James McCormiek Mitchell Lecture Fund In May, 1950. Mrs. James McC. Mitchell donated to the University the sum of $28,000 "to establish and maintain a lecture fund for the Law School in memory of James McC. Mitchell the principal of such fund to be held in trust and the income only to be used in such manner as the Council of the University may determine from time to time, to provide lectures in the Law School on suitable subjects in addition to the regular course of instruction, and to publish such lectures if deemed desirable." Mr. Mitchell's connection with the University extended over more than half a century. He graduated from the Law School in the Class of 1897. For sixteen years he was a member of the Council. For the last eleven years before his death he gave the Council distinguished leadership as its Chairman. He was a consistent and generous contributor to the University's funds. This foundation, which will bear his name in perpetuity and will bring to the University eminent legal authorities for occasional lectures, is a welcome and fitting memorial to his life and services. History. Dean Pratt Dr. Pratt was the unanimous choice of the selection committee for the professorship which was established by the University Council last June in tribute to the retiring Chancellor and to symbolize his exemplification of "the true spirit of American democracy". A CORRECTION Last month's Bulletin listed Homer J. Knickerbocker, PhG '93, MD '98, as captain of University's 1896 football varsity. Dr. Knickerbocker was a member of the team, but the late Irving R. Johnson, MD '98, was captain. �5 December, 1950 REPORT OF THE COMPTROLLER (Abstract) To the Chancellor and Council of the University of Buffalo: If the Treasurer might be permitted to depart briefly from the realm of financial matters, it would be to pay special tribute to Chancellor Samuel Paul Capen who retires this year from the scene of University activities. For 28 years he has guided the destiny of the University. The institution he hands over to those who will succeed him is ample testimony to the courage and wisdom of his leadership. Apart from his scholarly attainments, his insight into the financial affairs of the University, his rare understanding of balance sheets and operating statements and his forthright skill in handling operating problems have marked him as unique among University administrators. Almost never has he had sufficient funds to accomplish all his purposes or to satisfy all the University's needs. Always, however, he has done far more than would have seemed possible with the limited resources at hand. He has been a staunch colleague throughout these years. Together he and the Treasurer have found ways and means to accomplish things which were sorely needed but which at first seemed out of reach. Together they have shared a jealous pride in watching the institution grow in resources and prestige and favor in the community. The University which ChancellorCapen leaves has been molded in his pattern for the past 28 years; its future he leaves to those who remain and to those who will come after him. The annual report of the Comptroller and Treasurer for the fiscal year which ended June 30, 1950 is presented herewith. Exhibit "A," the Balance Sheet of the University, shows Total Assets on June 30, 1950 of $21,779,299.66, distributed as follows: Endowment Assets and Funds Temporarily Functioning as Endowment Assets, $8,351,156.34; Centennial Campaign Fund Assets, $690,794.50; Plant Fund Assets, $9,870,125.06; Operating Fund Assets, $2,-867,223.76. Endowment Assets and Funds Temporarily Functioning as Endowment Assets have increased $802,-510.14 during the year under review, chiefly through the addition of the Dr. James E. King bequest of $348,966.09, including accumulated interest, and the Mrs. Edward J. Meyer bequest for the establishment of the Edward J. Meyer Laboratory Fund of $197,468.97, including accumulated interest. Temporarily these two bequests have been added to the Special Purpose Endowment Funds where interest is being added at the current rate of return earned on the University's investment pool. Eventually they will be used toward the construction of the proposed MedicalDental Building on the campus, where special wings of the building will be named in honor of Dr. James F. King and Dr. Edward J. Meyer. Exhibit "B" is an analysis of Land, Buildings and Equipment as at June 30, 1950. At June 30, 1949 total Land, Buildings and Equipment were carried at $9,231,238.42; at June 30, 1950 at $9,588,043.28, an increase for the year of $356,804.86. The increase arises largely from the cost of completion of the new Law School Building, which was opened for occupancy last fall; from additions to the scientific equipment for the Engineering Building and from improvements to various other University properties. The current operating position of the University is best determined from the following comparative table of Operating Income and Expense of the University for the fiscal years ended June 30, 1948, June 30, 1949 and June 30, 1950: Fees Received from Students .53.756,066.68 172,974.31 Income from Investments Dental Infirmary (Net) 13.004.14 1,820.00 Rental Property Income Miscellaneous 12.736.83 Total Income — $3,956,601.96 $3,837,204.20 S3.695,591.3: 190.308.95 19,312.55 1.740.00 216.109.6' 11,889.7: 1.780.0( 13,896.08 13,516.4: $4.062.461.78 53,938,887.1) EXPENSE Expenses of Administration....* 372,732.65 $ 495.685.72 $ 533.233.U 1,612,698.79 1,929.126.00 2,002.949.5!

From this operating surplus the sum of $40,000.00 was appropriated to Plant Funds for certain special purposes, leaving a net surplus for the year of $339,260.63. This may well be the last operating surplus for several years to come. The decline in veteran enrollment which set in a year ago has accelerated during the year under review, with the result that income from students fees was $141,612.89 less than for the peak year 1948-1949 when fees received from the students reached an all-time high of $3,837,204.20. As was pointed out a year ago, the exodus of veterans is somewhat more slow than was their influx at the outset of the G. I. training program, but the problems attendant thereto are cause for real concern. For example, even in the face of falling revenue, total expenses have continued to increase. The largest single expense item, of course, is Salaries of Instruction, which during the year 1949-50 rose to $2,002,949.59, an increase of $73,823.59 over the preceding year. Expenses of Administration likewise climbed to $533,233.15, an increase of $37,547.43 over the preceding year. Operation and Maintenance of Buildings was up $24,375.23; the University Library expense was up $17,--115.97; as well as other educational expenses. It has been possible to curtail expenses in many departments but it will neither be possible nor desirable to cut expenses back to meet the falling revenue from student fees which represents 93.8% of total income. So, for at least some time into the future, the University faces years of careful budgeting and conserving its resources. The Korean war, with its implications of partial or complete mobilization, looms as a new threat to universities and colleges throughout the land. No one can anticipate at this time to what extent it will affect student enrollment, nor what emergency measures the Government will have to take to meet a possible war threat. Fortunately the University of Buffalo, for the moment at least, is in a good financial position. It has no debts. Its Income Stabilization Fund of $1,000,000 was designed to meet just such exigencies as the University now faces. Its Operating Fund Surplus, likewise, is just what its name implies, a reserve for current operations. These two funds can absorb current deficits for several years, if necessary. It is to be hoped that neither of these funds will be invaded for building purposes. The University has many building needs. For example, the need for a new Medical-Dental Building is clearly recognized; a new building on the Townsend Hall site, which houses Millard Fillmore College, the School of Nursing, the School of Social Work and the Treasurer's Office is greatly needed; the need for dormitories on the campus as well as additional laboratory space is a growing need. Two of these building needs have come into the foreground of consideration during the year underreview; namely, the Townsend Hall need and the new MedicalFrom the foregoing �Alumni Bulletin 6 Dental Building on the campus. For several years it has been recognized that the operations conducted in Townsend Hall had outgrown the structure. Last fall the building was deemed by city fire and building authorities to be a fire hazard and all classes have been removed from the third and fourth floors of that building to other locations. Temporarily it may be possible to conduct Millard Fillmore College classes on the campus and elsewhere without seriously affecting its enrollment. University administrative officers, however, recognize that as quickly as possible a suitable modern structure must be erected on the Townsend Hall site to accommodate the thousands of Buffalo's population who are employed in the downtown area and who throng to the University's night school classes. For almost 30 years these persons have sought out the downtown Millard Fillmore College for their night school education, and by their steady demand for its offerings, have made it prosper beyond any other division of the University. To abandon these downtown classes permanently is, of course, unthinkable. The new Medical-Dental Building on the campus awaits only the funds necessary for the completion of the project. Certain funds, largely gifts and bequests, are in hand for that project but they are not sufficient for a building of the size contemplated. It is to be hoped that the Special Committee at work on that problem will find the ways and means to proceed with the project in the near future. Exhibit "D" is a record of the securities held in the University's invested funds as at June 30, 1950. In the Endowment Account, United States, State and Municipal Government Bonds, purchased by the University, and excluding gifts, yielded an average of 1.74% on the actual investment' Foreign Government Bonds, 3.49%; Railroad Bonds, 3.37%; Public Utility Bonds, 2.70%; Industrial Bonds, 2.50%: Stocks. 5.96%. The average yield on all stocks and bonds purchased and owned by the University in the Endowment Fund, and excluding gifts, was 4.00%. In its other investments in the Centennial Fund Account, Operating Fund Account, and Plant Fund Account the University is compelled to invest in short term securities, which can be converted to cash as operating or building of course, needs demand. The yield on such securities is, very low. In its Endowment Fund Account, however, the yield of 4.00% is well in keeping with the average yields earned on the Endowment Funds of other universities. On June 30, 1950, the stocks and bonds in the University Endowment portfolio which had been purchased by the University, excluding gifts, were classified as follows, on the basis of market worth: United States, State and Municipal Government Bonds, 43.10%; Foreign Government Bonds 4.73%; Railroad Bonds, 4.38%; Public Utility Bonds, 1.48%; Industrial Bonds, 1.23%; Public Utility Preferred Stocks, 4.45%; Industrial Preferred Stocks, 319%; Investment Trust Preferred Stocks, .54%; Railroad Common Stocks, 1.20%; Public Utility Common Stocks, 4.15%; Bank Capital Stocks, 4.81%; Insurance Common Stocks, 6.55%; Industrial Common Stocks, 17.38%; Investment Trust Common Stocks, 2.81%. The market value on June 30, 1950 of the stocks and bonds in the University Endowment portfolio was 112.01% of their book value, or $928,777.32 in excess of their cost or book value. Collections on the University's Centennial Fund pledges continue to be well ahead of schedule. Payments through June 30, 1950 amounting to $1,301,190.91 equal 78.56% of total subscriptions aggregating $1,656,241.01. The Alumni Loyalty Fund, likewise, continues to pour its generous gifts into the University's funds. The exhibits and schedules which are annexed to and form a part of this report deserve to be studied with great care. They disclose the real size and growth of the University's operations. The Council, the faculty, the Alumni and friends of the University may take just pride in the undertaking in which they have had so large a participation. None of us, however, can afford to view with complacency the University's position today. The problems inherent in its situation are very real and will become increasingly pressing. Chief among these problems are the need for a building program and the need for additional Endowment Funds, yielding free income, to stabilize the delicate balance between operating income and expense. These problems have been referred to in previous Treasurer's reports. To their solution in the very near future, the Council, Alumni, and friends of the University must soon give serious consideration. Respectfully submitted, GEORGE D.

P. B. GOETZ, COUNCIL SECRETARY, DIES Secretary of the University's Council for 34 years and a member of that body since 1914, Philip Becker Goetz died after a long illness on December Ist, 1950. Undoubtedly the most compelling interest of Mr. Goetz's professional life was the development of the University and especially of its College of Arts & Science. He was active in the plans which led to the acquisition of its present campus and, when the first modest beginning of the College took place in 1913, was one of the volunteer faculty. Later he gave up his high school post to become head of the departments of English and Classics. As Chancellor Emeritus Capen said of him: "To all who knew him even casually it is likely that his life's most earnest and persistent desire will seem to be best summed up in his own words, the words of the University of Buffalo Chorale, of which he also composed the music: 'Spirit of beauty, love and truth Enter these hearts of youth; Reveal the glory that shall be Seen of all men beholding Thee.'

McCONNELL INAUGURATED AS EIGHTH CHANCELLOR Two full pages of pictures of Inauguration activities will be found on pages 4 and 5. by guests introduced by Dean of Administration Claude E. Puffer. The speakers and excerpts from their remarks follow: Faculty, Dr. John T. Horton, BA '26, head of the history department: "The faculty, sir, especially rejoices to bid you welcome because the auspices indicate this tradition bequeathed you by your predecessor you will maintain as long as you may here abide. That you may abide happily as well as long is the faculty's hope; that as long as you abide liberty and learning will prosper together and the university wax in renown for the prosperity of both is the faculty's belief." lor An impressive and colorful academic procession of delegates from more than universities, colleges and learned societies threaded its way into the auditorium of Kleinhans Music Hall on Saturday morning, January 6th, to begin the stirring two-hour ceremony which formally inaugurated Dr. T. Raymond McConnell as eighth chancellor of the 105-year-old University of Buffalo. After glowing tributes and greetings from educational, civic, alumni, and student leaders, Dr. McConnell accepted the charter and great seal of the University from Seymour H. Knox, chairman of the Council. 200 From the Alumni With Humility and Courage In accepting these symbols of his office, the new chancellor told the audience of 1200 people: "I do so with humility because I am conscious of the devotion to the University of all of those who have made it into the distinguished institution it is today. And I respond with courage because I shall workbeside able and loyal men and women dedicated to a still greater university, more eminent in scholarship and more effective in its service to the great Niagara Frontier." Chancellor McConnell cited the fact that many thousands of citizens had contributed to the University's three endowment campaigns and added: "I am certain that nowhere else can such widespread underwriting of private higher education be found." The new chancellor praised the University's "revitalized" alumni body, saying: "By their annual gifts, their sensitive understanding of the University's true mission, their pride in its accomplishments, and their jealous guardianship of its intellectual freedom, they are projecting their alma mater into a future of greater usefulness." Dr. McConnell also praised the faculty which he described as "devoted to the ideals of scholarship and the search for truth, loyal to the University and its constituency." In speaking of his predecessor, Chancellor Emeritus Samuel P. Capen, he pointed out that Dr. Capen "took the institution 28 years ago when it was a loose federation and led it to full stature as a university." Dr. Capen was on the platform with Council members and faculty, but did not speak. A "General Education" Dr. McConnell based the greater part of his inaugural message on the premise that every American university today must prepare its students to live as free men, to understand and appreciate the ideas, the institutions, and the values underlying the nation's democratic society. In a comprehensive discussion of higher education today, he also stated a firm belief in "general education", stating that: "I have be- come convinced that we have over-em- phasized specific training to the detriment of an intellectual grasp of the fundamental disciplines upon which intelligent practice and the advancement of technology depend." Then, speaking slowly and forcefully, Dr. McConnell went on to his discussion of the clash of ideologies in the world today. Clash of Ideologies "Certainly", he said, "it is a conflict of ideas of vast significance. But it is also much more. The momentous issues that divide the democratic and totalitarian systems are profoundly moral and spiritual. And it is these intellectual, moral, and spiritual issues that the universities, devoted so largely to professional studies; the faculties, so absorbed in their specialisms; and the students, so intent on their particular interests and careers, frequently ignore. .. "In essence, the choice between a free society and an authoritative system is a choice between values. . "In arousing a concern for values on the part of university students one need not indoctrinate; instead, he may incite quest and self-discovery. "Perhaps because we have been inclined to take our freedom for granted, we have made the mistake of assuming that democracy is a simple concept. Actually, democracy is a complex form of human association, far more complicated than totalitarian philosophies and systems of government. Rights, equality, freedom, and justice are complex ideas, difficult to grasp yet central to an understanding of democracy. . . . "There may have been a time when we as people could take our system of government thoughtlessly and accept its freedoms casually, but that time is past. Neither can the colleges and universities afford longer to take our way of life for granted, any more than they are justified in treating it chauvinistically or complacently." Preceding the inaugural address, formal greetings were extended the new chancel- Alumni, Dr. J. Frederick Painton, BS (Mcd) '27, MD '27, president of the General Alumni Board: "It is my privilege and pleasure as President of the General Alumni Board, the representative and governing body of the University of Buffalo's 17,000 living alumni, to convey to you, Dr. Thomas Raymond McConnell, on this memorable day, the greetings and best wishes of the graduates of our beloved University. "I can assure you, Mr. Chancellor, that the alumni of this University are interested in their Alma Mater. They are not eager to dictate policies in the University but simply to work and cooperate with you to attain and insure educational and financial independence of the University who selected you as its eighth chancellor. "As head of this University Mr. Chancellor, you have the right to expect the fullest support both spiritual and financial from the alumni. Many college administrators have publicly stated that the future of the independent university lies directly in the hands of the alumni and it is quite obvious that same situation applies to our own University. "To the alumni that are present or who may have an opportunity to read this message, I should like to state that, in the short time Dr. McConnell has been with us, your officers have had several opportunities to sit down and meet with him and discuss alumni and University matters. On all occasions the welcome sign was evident and I should like to express to you, Mr. Chancellor, my personal appreciation as well as that of die alumni organizations for the sincere interest you have so early demonstrated to the alumni in their efforts to be of assistance to you and to the University. Such genuine interest on your part augurs well for a continuing and effective relation- .. . .. . ship. "In conclusion, Dr. McConnell, I want know the alumni welcome your you to distinguished leadership of this great University and they anticipate with pleasure further opportunities of working with you to insure the future success of our Alma Mater, both from an educational and financial point of view." (Continued on Page 2) �2 Alumni Bulletin dr. McConnell (Continued Students, Theodore W. Breach, president of Norton Union: "Last year, when it became known that there was to be a new chancellor at the University of Buffalo, we students began wondering what this change would mean to us. Even though we were mainly concerned with the problems that evolve around the pursuit of a college education, we wondered how our future would be affected. "During the last four months we have seen some of those things about which we once wondered become something quite material. Also, we have come to know you as our new chancellor. We have met with you during committee meetings, we have talked to you in your office on topics that have been both pleasant and unpleasant and we have chatted with you informally on the walks about the campus. "In this time we can say that you have never once failed to show sincere interest and concern in our problems, regardless of how small they have been." From the Community Community, Hon. Joseph Mruk, Mayor of Buffalo: "I am confident you will never permit the substitution of license for freedom, nor distortion of fundamental truths. Neither will you permit or allow infiltration of ideas or teaching that would undermine our democracy I am immensely happy a man of your calibre has been chosen to lead our fine university and I speak the feelings of all our citizens in welcoming you to Buffalo. ..." State, Dr. Lewis A. Wilson, New York State Commissioner of Education: "For more than 100 years, the Regents and the State Education Department have observed with interest and with pride the contribution of this institution to the cultural and economic life of our great state. "A growing and influential university requires dynamic leadership. This university has been unusually fortunate in the selection of leaders who were men of vision. Samuel P. Capen, chancellor for nearly 30 years, guided this institution through many difficult times, and left the mark of his greatness on the present character of the university. "Thus, it was with great pleasure that we received word that Thomas Raymond McConnell had been elected to the chancellorship; his selection has received wide acclaim from educators in this state. V. S. Government, Dr. Earl J. McGrath, BA '28, MA '30, U. S. Commissioner of .... . . ... . Education: "The University of Buffalo, in which I had the good fortune to study and to serve as an officer, is not the largest, wealthiest, or oldest university in the country, but it is unquestionably one of the most distinguished." He lauded the University's "spirit of free inquiry, the dedication of the entire academic enterprise to the endless search for truth and the right of faculty members and students to take and to defend any position regarding man or the universe which their reason dictates." "It is my sincere opinion that no man in American higher education is better qualfied to direct the destiny of this insti- inaugurated New Drive Announced At Civic Dinner from Page 1) tution in the critical years ahead than T. Raymond McConnell. "With the help of the citizens of this community, the council of the university and the faculty, Dr. McConnell will provide the type of statesmanlike leadership which will further enhance in the eyes of the world this institution and the city whose name it bears." From American Universities American Universities, Dr. Arthur S. Adams, President of the American Council on Education: "The University of Buffalo has had a peculiarly close relationship to the American Council on Education. It has been affiliated with the Council for 28 years and Chancellor Capen was the Council's first administrative head. "Your new leader, Chancellor McConnell, has also served the council well through his many important contributions to its measurement and guidance activities. Dr. McConnell will continue as chairman of the council's Committee on Measurement & Evaluation this year and is one of the three representatives of the council on the governing board of the recently created Educational Testing Service. "Because he has a special competence in dealing with individuals, he is particularly well fitted to lead the university at this critical time." After the inauguration exercises, a luncheon for the delegates was held in Norton Hall on the campus followed by a public reception for Chancellor and Mrs. McConnell in the main reading room of Lockwood Memorial Library. ... Program To Aid Frontier Industry Chancellor McConnell this month announced that the University is preparing to offer a wide variety of services to Niagara Frontier industries, as well as to armed forces and government agencies. A "defense committee" has been established to arrange special educational programs to meet industry's needs either on company property or in University class- rooms. ... .. CHANCELLORS OF THE UNIVERSITY OF BUFFALO .... Fillmore Orasmus H. Marshall 1846-74 E. Carlton Sprague James O. Putnam 1885-95 Millard Wilson S. Bissell Charles P. Norton Samuel P. Capen .... .... .... .... T. Raymond McConnell 1882-84 1895-02 1902-03 1905-20 1922-50 1950- More than 600 persons from the Niagara Frontier community gathered in the main ballroom of Hotel Statler on Friday evening, January sth, to pay tribute to the University's new chancellor at a civic dinner in his honor. Two of the nation's leading educators were the keynote speakers and, in their remarks, emphasized that military manpower requirements—present and anticipated—will impair the efforts of universities in producing indispensable resources for national defense unless government and military heads thoughtfully consider university needs and efforts. Dr. Lewis Morrill, president of the University of Minnesota, and Dr. Oliver C. Carmichael, chairman of the Board of Trustees of the State University of New York, also highlighted the increasingly important role that friends and alumni of the universities must play in the survival of independent institutions. Council President Seymour H. Knox, in extending his greetings to the civic representatives at the dinner, announced that the University shortly will embark on a campaign among its friends and alumni to raise funds for an extensive building program, the first goal of which will be $1,250,000 for the proposed $3,650,000 medical-dental building on the campus. Other goals in the drive, he announced, would be a new laboratory and classroom building, residence halls, and adequate facilities for Millard Fillmore College. Dr. McConnell Dicusses Draft With Students Chancellor T. Raymond McConnellperformed an invaluable service this month for the University's 2,100 men students on the campus when he discussed with them the military manpower situation and its effects upon them. Calling for long-range thinking, the Chancellor pointed out that the federal government must adopt a policy designed to provide a steady flow of "trained men for leadership of all types—political, economic, military, and religious". Dr. McConnell appealed to the students to avoid "any form of mass behavior which is essentially imitative and impulsive in character. It is both to the nation's and your own advantage to stay in the University as long as you possibly can", he urged, cautioning students not to be stampeded into premature enlistments. He concluded, "I believe that when the decisions are made in the next few weeks a considerable proportion of the students already in college will be permitted to finish. Furthermore, it is likely that some of the present college students who are taken into service at the end of the present year will be sent back to college after four to six months of basic training." . .

TWO OF FACULTY PUBLISH THIS MONTH Books by two University faculty members are off the presses this month, both of them likely to cause some lively comment in their respective fields. The first is by Prof. Richard W. Boynton, professor of philosophy and teacher of hundreds of present alumni. Titled "Beyond Mythology", it is an unique, unusual book which forcibly challenges the "organized dogmatism" of present-day religion, and attempts "to replace supernatural worship with progressive, modern human values." Alvin W. Gouldner, assistant professor of sociology, has had published his "Studies in Leadership" which traces the dimunition of the power of the city boss with the corresponding growth in the strength and power of the federal government. One result, he emphasizes, is the increasingly common "alliance between local politicians and racketeers". Crofts to Retire; Puffer Is Successor George D. Crofts, comptroller and the University since 1921, treasurer of this month announced his retirement effective June 30th, just 11 days short of his 30th anniversary in this post. At the same time, Chancellor T. Raymond MeConnell announced the appointment of Dean of Administration Claude E. Puffer as Mr. Crofts' successor. Dr. Puffer, a native of lowa, holds bachelor's and master's degrees from the University of Washington and his doctor of philosophy from Stanford University. He is 46 years old and Mr. Crofts has been a member of the University faculty for the last 12 years, the past five and half as dean of administration. After teaching at the University of Pittsburgh for two years, he joined the University as an instructor in economics in 1938. He also served as assistant dean of the School of Business Administration, then acting dean, and in 1945 he was appointed dean of administration, succeeding Dr. Earl J. McGrath, BA '28, MA '30, now U. S. Commissioner of Education. Mr. Crofts, who reached the 70-year retirement age last July, was praised by Chancellor McConnell and Council President Seymour H. Knox for his outstanding service to the University for so many years. Dr. McConnell said of him: "Few universities have had such far-sighted and efficient business and plant administration as the University of Buffalo under Mr. Crofts. Outstanding is the way in which the University's financial resources have been conserved and expanded during his administration. The University's plant investment has grown enormously, and the endowment funds have been managed with great skill and wisdom. His prudent financial management has put the University in the best Dr. Puffer possible position to face the crisis that all higher institutions, particularly the privately con- - trolled ones, must undergo in the im- mediate future." The retiring treasurer actually has been associated with the University for 47 years. A native of Buffalo, he received his law degree from Cornell University in 1903 and started lecturing in the University of Buffalo Law School in 1904 on contracts and torts. He held the position for 20 years and now is professor emeritus. He also served as secretary and treasurer of the Law School from 1904 until the reorganization and centralization of the University in 1920. The following year he assumed the post from which he retires this June. �INAUGURATION OF DR. T. RAYMOND McCONNEL 1. Chancellor Emeritus Samuel P. Capen and Chancellor T. Raymond McConnell. 2.

Knox last week announced the appointment of a Committee on University Development to plan and organize the financial resources and expansion of the University. Mr. Knox named Paul A. Schoellkopf, Jr.,chairman, and appointed these Council members to the Committee: Charles H. Diefendorf, Lewis G. Harriman, Alex F. Osborn, and Francis A. Smith. Mr. Knox and Chancellor McConnell will serve as ex-officio members. In announcing the appointment of the Committee, Mr. Knox said: "The appointment reflects a trend many universities are following. This emphasizes a widening recognition of the necessity for a continuous plan of development of financial resources as a regular part of the University's business. It recognizes that an occasional effort in response to a periodic emergency is no longer adequate. "There is general agreement among these institutions that their most important task is to help build up the volume of annual giving and to encourage the flow of gifts and bequests, with occasional capital campaigns as needed for specific purposes." Mr. Knox said the Committee would serve these purposes: "To consider and study the immediate and long-range financial needs of the University; "To keep the alumni informed of these needs and encourage their aid and sup- port; build up the volume of annual contributions and the flow of special gifts, grants, and bequests to the Uni"To help versity; Map of Campus Showing Location of New Med-Dent Building. The University Council this month authorized the Buildings and Grounds Committee to issue plans and specifications and ask for bids on the erection of the new Medical-Dental Building to be built on the campus. Karr Parker, chairman of the Committee, announced: "If the costs approximate the estimate of $3,625,000 (for the building and equipment), contracts will be let immediately". Mr. Parker also disclosed that the time allowed for the completion of the building is 630 calendar days, about two years. The new building will be located on the Bailey Avenue side of the University campus, diagonally across the street from the new Veterans Hospital. It will have a capacity of 100 medical and 80 dental students a year, compared with 70 mcdi- cal and 60 dental accommodated in the present buildings. Chairman Parker stated that the structure will be "the last word in medicaldental school construction. It will be a reinforced concrete building and will use a minimum of steel, copper, and other critical materials. In drawing up the plans, the faculties of the Medical and Dental Schools have been consulted frequently and have expressed satisfaction with the design." Equipment is a very substantial item in the total cost of the structure. Bids are being taken for equipment at the same time as for construction since many of the facilities must have electrical, compressed air, hot-and-cold water, and other special connections. "To provide plans to raise funds necessary for the construction and acquisition of new buildings and equipment and the rehabilitation of existing buildings; "To plan the financing offuture educational, research, and scientific projects." The Committee also has the authority to establish subcommittees and organize the necessary personnel for the execution of its plans. TWO COUNCIL MEMBERS ELECTED Two new members were elected to the University Council at its meeting last week. Alex F. Osborn, vice-chairman of the board of Batten, Barton, Durstine & Osborn, Inc., advertising agency, was elected to the vacancy caused by the death of Judge Charles B. Sears. This term expires next June. Harold M. Hecht, president of the Wm. Hengerer Co. of Buffalo, was elected to the vacancy caused by the resignation of Horace LoGrasso, MD '04, appointive member, of the Council who has removed to California. Mr. Hecht's term will expire in Tune, 1952. �2 Alumni Bulletin ALUMNI NEWS ITEMS EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE MEMBERSHIP INCREASED '11 LLB—Supreme Court Justice George T.

HAAS, BS(Bus)'32 Director, Norton Hall School Administrators Alumni of the School of Education who will be attending the American Association of School Administrators meeting in Atlantic City this month will meet for luncheon on Tuesday, February 20th, at 12:30 P. M.,in Hotel Madison. Chancellor T. Raymond McConnell will speak. Reservations may be telephoned or sent to Dr. Charles Fall, faculty member of the School of Education, care of the Hotel Madison. Medical Alumni Clinic Dr. G. Stanley Klaiber, BA'3Bf left, assistant professor of physics, and Dr. Lyle W. Phillips, MA'35, chairman of the physics department, work on charts of the new nuclear physics project at the University. Expansion of the University's physics laboratories to provide additional facilities for research in nuclear physics was announced this month by Chancellor McConnell. A new laboratory, relatively isolated from the main part of Science Hall, is now being constructed and will contain two cloud chambers and various other equipment for this particular research. Dr. Lyle W. Phillips, MA '35, chairman of the physics department, has revealed that a selected staff, consisting largely of graduate students working on master's or Ph.D. projects, will conduct special studies of the behavior of electrons, protons, and other so-called fundamental particles, and especially the way in which they lose their energy. Dr. G. Stanley Klaiber, BA '38, assistant professor of physics, will direct the staff in its studies. Nuclear physics research at the University has hitherto been scattered through the physics laboratory. The new facilities will bring them together in a new large laboratory being built over the top of the former heating tunnel which extends from Science Hall. The annual spring clinic and class reunions of the alumni of the School of Medicine will be held on Saturday, April 14th, in Hotel Statler. Joseph D. Godfrey, MD '31, president of the association, has a large committee working with him to provide a top-flight program for an expected attendance of more than 1,000 medical alumni and their guests. Analytical Chemistry The annual reunion dinner of the Analytical Chemistry Alumni Association will pay special tribute to the association's honorary president, Albert P. Sy, PhD '08, at the Park Lane on Friday evening, May 11th. Dr. Carl H. Rasch, AC *25, president, is being assisted in the arrangements by these officers: Laurence H. Lockie, AC '22, PhG '19, PhC '21, BS (Phar) '29, MS (Phar) '48; Vera Wetmore Jones, AC '23; and M. Smith Thomas, AC '14, BA '32. Social Work Alumni of the School of Social Work will join with the graduating class of the School at its annual dinner on Wednesday evening, May 2nd, at the V.F.W. Post, Main and Michigan Streets. Student Council President Michael Morris and General Alumni Board Representative Elmer J. Tropman, BA '32, MA '35, SWk '37, are handling arrangements. TO A NEW GRADUATE (The following is an excerpt from a letter the February graduates of the College of Arts & Sciences by their long-time dean, sent to CLUB PICKS PRATT'S BOOK Dean Julius W. Pratt's new book, "America's Colonial Experiment", published in December by Prentiss-Hall, Inc., has been selected by the History Book Club as its selection for April, 1951. As the title suggests, the volume deals with how the United States gained, governed, and in part gave away a colonial empire. Dean Pratt is well-known to hundreds of alumni who have sat in his classes in American history; they will recognize in the book another authoritative work by this prominent historian. LAW, '98, MAKES 100% For the fourth consecutive year, Law School's Class of '98 has recorded 100% participation in the Alumni Loyalty Fund. Under the leadership of Class Agent Henry Adsit Bull the tightly-knit group has established what alumni officers believe is an unique achievement among university loyalty funds. DOIN' IN THE UNION Julian Park). "There are few earthly things more splendid than a university. In these days when every future looks grim and every ancient foothold has become something of a quagmire, wherever a university stands, it stands and shines; wherever it exists, the free minds of men, urged on to full and fair enquiry, may still bring wisdom into human affairs. "For you who are liberally educated the lessons of the past do make somewhat easier, though certainly not assured, a solution of today's vast problems in which you will soon, willy-nilly, be cast in the role of leaders. To prove worthy of such a challenge is the best parting wish a faculty can give you "To you I recommend this prayer: 'God give me serenity to accept things I cannot change, courage to change things I can, wisdom to know the difference' "With the thanks of the faculty for your loyalty to all that this great University stands for." Dr. . ... . ... To dents more than 4,000 undergraduate stuon campus, the cry is still "Meet Norton!" Norton Hall, the student union building, has just completed its 16th year of operation in which it broke all records in the number of clubs functioning and in the use of its buildings and facilities by its membership. you at Just as an example —there were more than 1,900 reservafor the use of rooms. he Union stands the University's Dgnition of the educational importance of profitable leisure time activities. In keeping with this recognition, the Program Committee, consistHaas, '32 ing of some six sub-committees under the direction of Program Coordinator Elizabeth Bohlen Foels, BA '49, planned and executed more than one hundred free events in which 23,000 students participated. Among these events were: dude dance, spinster spree, coffee hours, stunt nights, open houses, community sings, splash parties, chess—table tennis—bridge—billiard and tiddleywink tournaments, art and photo exhibits, and special musical events run by the Music Committee using Norton's wide collection of classical, semi-classical, and jazz records. Our "empty-stomach" department finds food service maintained throughout the year in the main dining room, and in the snack bar, with special luncheons in the private dining rooms. Over 2,000 meals are served daily in this department. Increased activities have necessitated increasing our permanent staff to include, in addition to the Director, four full-time staff members and six maintenance men. However, the majority of the jobs here at the Union are still filled by students. Last year, we were able to employ 67 student part-time employees who earned more than $7,000 in the various departments operated under the Union management. Traditions such as the Blue Masquers' play in December, the annual Norton Union Christmas Dance, and a new tradition of the combined Glee Club and Orchestra Christmas program are events students always look forward to. We do not always look only to our own interests. We are now very much interested in community charities and, through the Campus Barrel, attempt to support as many national and international service organizations as possible. The stairway in Norton's main lobby is still the most popular gathering spot. The young co-eds are just as attractive as ever and help to ease the tension and anxiety of the men students as they worry over world news and wait for their draft cards. Alumni returning to campus are always extended a hearty welcome and we urge them to visit and enjoy Norton's facilities. (is �4 Alumni Bulletin Dr. A.

He was founder of the University's first hockey team back in '96. That was the year that Dr. Wettlaufer, a teacher in the University's Dental School, organized the University's first ice hockey team. Artificial ice wasn't a gleam in anybody's eye in those days. Ice depended on the winter blasts. Apparently the weather and the team improved after one season of play because TAXES ON YOUR MIND? Of course. Taxes are on everyone's mind these critical days. And yet, the government has made it possible for individuals and corporations to support educational and non-profit institutions by providing certain deductions in the tax returns. However, recent gift figures noted in income and profits tax returns make one wonder if the public-atlarge are aware of the opportunities they have to support these educational institutions. Here are the facts: 1) Individuals are allowed 15% deductions for gifts to non-profit institutions. Last year, the average person took advantage of only 4% of that provision. 2) Corporations were allowed 5% but gave just 7/loooths of 1%. — the '97 and '98 teams (pictured above) took on several teams and finished their seasons without a loss.

Raymond McConnell at the University's 51st annual Midyear Commencement on University Day, February 22nd, in Kleinhans Music Hall. Highlight of the exercises was the awarding of the Chancellor's Medal to Chancellor Emeritus Samuel Paul Capen. The occasion marked the 24th time that the University has presented the medal to an outstanding BufFalonian. In making the presentation, Dr. McConnell stated: "The Council of the University, in making its selection this year, might have met publicly, for its choice is so obvious that nearly all of you will have guessed it in advance". Dr. Capen, garbed in his familiar scarlet academic robe, received a standing ovation from the 2500 spectators as Chancellor McConnell described him as "master builder of a university, great teacher, inheritor and creator of inspiring traditions, apostle of good purposes, devoted to your place and dignifier of your time." Dr. Theodore C. Blegen, dean of the Graduate School at the University of Minnesota, was the commencement speaker and urged increased effort by scholars to put their knowledge in a language the public can understand and thus enrich and strengthen the faith and confidence our people need. Dean Blegen added: "If scholars will not cross the bridges to public understanding, purveyors of misinformation 1947 1946 1945 1944 1943 1942 1941 1940 1939 1935 1937 1936 1935 1934 1933 Dr. Samuel Paul Capen Dr. Ernest Witebsky James Me.

Brent The program committee of the School of Medicine Alumni Association has planned a diversified scientific program for the 14th Annual Spring Clinic Day to be sponsored by the association on Saturday, April 10th, in Hotel Statler. Program Chairman George M. Masotti, MD '33, and his committee have arranged for six speakers, all outstanding practitioners in their respective fields, to present papers at the morning and afternoon sessions. Joseph D. Godfrey, MD '31, association president, has announced that Chancellor T. Raymond McConnell will be the annual luncheon speaker. The morning session, beginning at 10 A.M. in the Statler's ballroom, will be in charge of Secretary-Treasurer Grosvenor W. Bissell, MD '39, who will present these speakers: Dr. Harry L. Bodkus of Philadelphia on cardio-vascular relationship to gastro intestinal disease; Dr. Frederick T. Stare of Boston on nutrition; and Dr. Berwyn Mattison, Erie County health commissioner, on medicine and the national emergency. The afternoon session, beginning at 2:15 P.M., will be chairmaned by vicepresident Frederick G. Stoesser, MD '29, who will introduce these speakers: Dr. HowardRusk of New York on rehabiltation; Dr. George Eaton of Baltimore on common fractures; and Dr. Thomas Frawley of Boston on cortissone and ACTH. The annual luncheon will be held in the Statler's Niagara Room at 12:30 P.M., and the business meeting and election of officers will take place at 2 P.M. in the ballroom. Another highlight of this year's Clinic Day will be the extensive scientific exhibits arranged by Kenneth Goldstein, MD '39, and his committee. These exhibits will be set up in the foyer adjacent to the ballroom. - and servants of propaganda and falsehood are always ready to do so. They are on the job now, twisting history and science, religion and the humanities, and theories of man and society to fit their dogmas of self-interest". Addressing the graduates directly, the speaker pointed out that the American university faces critical days ahead but it "will survive ... if you, its graduates, band yourselves about it, understand, defend it ... if you, the friends of freedom and enlightenment, do not just take it for granted but back it up and join hands with its officers and faculty".

S. Air Force will announce its selection of colleges and universities to be given ROTC units and it appears quite possible that the University will be one of those chosen. To that end, administrative officers have been working on probable arrangements with the Air Force and, further, have complied with the Air Force's request that an expression of faculty and student sentiment be secured. In February, student and faculty members of the campus divisions of the University voted by substantial majorities for establishment of compulsory ROTC training for freshmen and sophomores and for voluntary training for juniors and seniors.

San Francisco Alumni Enjoyed TheirBarbecue Pittsburgh San Francisco The San Francisco Branch Alumni Club's meeting in February was probably one of the most unusual in the history of any alumni club. Horace O. Lanza, LLB '01, was host to the members at a delicious barbecue dinner. Club Secretary Dorothy Snyder Grayson, Edß '43, de- scribed it best in her letter to the Alumni Office: "It was really a wonderful, peppy party. About 40 turned out, including the wives and husbands of alumni. The barbecue house is a glass-enclosed place situated in the garden of the Lanza home. It has a stainless-steel kitchen and a barbecue pit and tables with red-checked tablecloths. We were all given big redcheckered bibs. Then came barbecued beef in huge pieces, tossed salad, garlic bread, and sparkling Burgundy. In the center of the main table was a big birthday cake {see cut} in blue and white with one candle to celebrate the first anniversary of our club. It had 'University of Buffalo' in blue icing on top. "After the feast (and I do mean feast), Dr. Horace LoGrasso, MD '04, president, started the meeting. Each one introduced himself and told how he happened to come to the West Coast—some gay stories here!—and then we elected these officers for the next year: Ralph T. Behling, PhG '39, MD '43, president; me secretary again; and Horace O. Lanza, LLB '01, representative to the General Alumni — Board.

CHALMERS SETS CAGE RECORDS Jack Chalmers, 6-foot, 3-inch senior from Williamsville, wrote three new records into the University's basketball history on March 2nd when the Bulls closed their cage season with an 83-to-51 win over Hobart in Clark Memorial Gymnasium. Here's what he did: 1) Scored 37 points for a new high in single game scoring; 2) Became the first UB player to reach and pass the 1,000-point mark for a three-year varsity career; 3) Set a new record of 396 points for a single season—or a total of 1,003 points for his three-year varsity play. Victory over trdaitional-rival Hobart gave the University cagers 13 wins to 8 defeats for their seasonrecord, as follows: u.u. upp. W. & Siena J 62 33 City.. 75 78 Delaware 54 JPash.

Wrestling as an intercollegiate sport at the University has taken on added emphasis and popularity since the war, especially since the appointment of Warren Gregory, former Midwestern and Indiana college champion, as wrestling coach. For the past three years, Coach Gregory has been building the schedule and the team members to meet major competition from all parts of the country. The results have been more boys out for the squad and a new and enthusiastic following which includes anyone from 6 to 60, from grammar school youngsters to college deans. College wrestling encompasses all weights, with the criteria for victory being brawn, technique, and quick-thinking. Weight classes start with 123 lbs. and progress through 137, 147, 157, 167, 177, to the heavyweight or unlimited division. In '48 and '49, his first two years of coaching, Gregory's teams recorded 16 wins and 2 ties in 25 matches. This year bids fair to be his best with 8 wins in 10 outings thus far. Veteran stars like heavyweight Don Beitleman, who is undefeated this year and has lost but once in 22 college matches: Al "Fritz" Zwolinski, 9—l; and Don Bero, B—2, are expected to represent the University in the District and Invitational tourneys in Buffalo and at Case Institute this month. � Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Sengbusch, BS(Nrs) '35, EdM'39, announced this month. Applications are being accepted now from men and women. The four-year basic program is a new departure in nursing education and is conducted in cooperation with hospitals and community health agencies. The student attends the University for her first year, spends the second and third years in the study of clinical nursing in the cooperating hospitals and agencies and returns to the University for the fourth year. For the cooperating hospitals, this is also an innovation. Previously, the hospitals have not taken students from the University. The ordinary practice has been for the nurses to train in hospital nursing schools and then enter the University for degree work and advanced courses. Pictured here are 3 "pioneers" in the University's new four-year bask nursing program. In the predinical chemistry laboratory are, left to right: Carolyn J. Brenner, Rita M. G'tmbrone, and Harold M. Updike. The University's four-year program in basic nursing, inaugurated this year with 11 students, will be expanded next fall to include 30 students in each entering The four-year program leads to the degree of bachelor of science in nursing and admission to the licensing examination for the practice of professional nursing in NewYork State. Cooperating are Millard Fillmore, Buffalo General, Meyer Memorial, and Children's Hospitals; Roswell Park Memorial Institute, Buffalo Visiting Nursing Association, and the Erie County Health Department.

Said Dean of Administration Claude E. Puffer: "We hope it will be possible to reappoint many of these staff members. It depends upon the deferment policy yet to be determined by Selective Service and also upon whether we get an ROTC unit on the to campus." CapenAppointed Chancellor Emeritus Samuel P.

YES, UNIVERSITY'S PERSONNELOFFICE STILL KEEPS YOUR RECORD! by Eduard S. Jones Dean oj Students The University's Personnel Office, initiated by Chancellor Capen in 1925, started on a small scale under Dr. Edward S. Jones, then recently appointed Professor of Psychology, with the main aim to deal with each individual as a unique person Dean Jones and to include a consideration of his all round preparation for life work. Various services help the nave since been inaugurated to student adjust himself before, during, and after college attendance. To correct a common misapprehension, it should be stated that the main effort of a personnel advisor is not to direct nor tell people what they should be, in regard to a future course or a job; rather it is to inform the student about certain requirements and to help him consider various alternatives, one or more of which he himself chooses. As the scope of personnel work throughout the country has grown, the University has developed new or enlarged services. An extensive testing program for nearly all students is provided, including tests of general college aptitude, vocabulary, ability in English and in problem solving for all entering students. For certain groups, interest-testing and measures of neurotic instability are used; for others, pre-medical, pre-law, pre-dental tests and Graduate Record tests designed to appraise those wishing graduate training. These test ratings are kept confidential but are available to students who use them to detect weak spots which they may strengthen, and areas of ability to develop as specializations in the future. At present there are four full time advisors, not counting two men who put nearly all of their time on placement and contacts with business and industry. Five others advise occasionally on routine matters. Much attention is given to records since these often turn out to be very important ten or fifteen years after one has graduated from college. The University has given special emphasis to interviews on anticipatory exams and freshman interviews, and has attained considerable national recognition because of them. Several hundred students have been given examinations based on college level attainments before coming to college. In the great majority of cases, only very able students have been allowed to take these examinations, and more than 70 per cent have been given good passing grades—C or better. Many able students have been stimulated not only to shorten their college course work to some extent, but to advance into graduate level work because of their early independent work under the stimulus of high school teachers and the syllabi handed out by the Personnel Office from various departments. The freshmen orientation interview is extremely time-consuming and might be classed in many colleges as a non-essential. Actually, we believe it furnishes a valuable introduction to the life and the problems of the university. Various items on a personnel blank are rapidly surveyed by the interviewer, including hobbies, school interests, indications of anxiety, difficulties in concentration and in selfconfidence, and the student is asked about the time and place of a usual study day. Health and financial problems may be discussed, and particularly factors which involve tensions in family relations, or distractions from studying. Finally faculty advisors are appointed. We believe that, in general, students feel free to return and discuss a great variety of problems. They should feel there is one "warm spot" in which a return for suggestions, or an opportunity to just talk over a problem, is an easy process. Ninety five per cent of entering students take advantage of the invitations sent out to attend these conferences, although the interviews are actually voluntary and not required. TWO U. B.

Stage; R. Maxwell fames; Dr. T. Raymond McConnell; Harris N. Snyder; George D. Crofts; Dr. Stockton Kimball; Dr. ]. Frederick Vainton; Dr. William J. Orr; Dr. Leon ]. Oaucbat. A Dream Becomes A Reality A new era of service in medical and dental care was promised by Chancellor T. Raymond McConnell, at the groundbreaking ceremonies for the University's new Medical-Dental Building, April 6th. Two silver plated shovels were employed in the ceremony on the campus site of the $4,500,000 building. The first, a gift of the contractor, was used by Dr. McConnell to turn the first piece of sod, and will be placed in a trophy case in the five-story reinforced concrete structure. The second shovel, employed by E. Maxwell James, architect, was the historic one used in the ground breaking for Foster Hall in 1933. Among the more than 150 on-lookers was Dr. Samuel P. Capen, Chancellor emeritus, whom Dr. McConnellsaluted as having "repeatedly stressed the need for this building." Tribute was also paid to the faculties and alumni of the Schools of Medicine and Dentistry and to the other divisions of the University, for their consistent urging for a new medical-dental building on the ground that what strenghens any part of the institution strengthens all the others too.

Discussing the government's policy of deferring top students, Dr. McConnell pointed out that the expected drops in enrollment at U. B. should be much less than expected.

New Course In Engineering Being Offered In accordance with its policy of making a broad range of services available to Western New York industries, branches of the Armed Forces and the government for programs which are of value to the defense effort, the University, at the Bell Aircraft Corporation, has inaugurated a course in Servomechanism Fundamentals at the Niagara Falls plant. Servomechanisms are devices used in aneomatic flights, in controlling guided missiles and pilotless aircraft, and because the science is new and there is an acute shortage of engineers in the field, Bell requested the university to make training available at the plant. The course is offered at the graduate level with full academic credit and is conductd by Harold L. Newman, assistant professor of electrical engineering. To the theme "Say It With Music", more than thirty floats of various sororities, fraternities, clubs and schools of the University paraded up Main Street in the annual Moving Up Day ceremonies. Queen of the festivities was Joy Vann, a freshman in the Arts and Sciences School, who viewed floats ranging from the School of Engineering's "Dry Bones" which featured a top-hatted, cigar-smoking skeleton, accompanying several large robots on a pink piano, to Phi Kappa Psi's "Shiek of Araby" whose harem was guarded by six mounted arabs. The Pre-ceremonial queen campaigns were the likes of which the North Main Campus has never seen before. For a full month the campus was populated by railroad engineers, arabs, kilties walking plaid coated scotties and gingham gowned damsels. To all who viewed the campus spectacle and the parade that followed, it was evident that the spirit and enthusiasm of the present day student is just as avid as in our undergraduate days. U.B.

UNIVERSITY GRADUATES 1,075 The second largest class in the 105 year history of the University of Buffalo received degrees and certificates at the commencement exercises held Wednesday, May 13th at Kleinhans Music Hall. Chancellor T. Raymond McConnell, in his first commencement address at the University, asserted that the public mind in general "is badly undernourished" with regard to public affairs. "The consequences of this lack of knowlege and understanding were serious enough in the past; they are likely to be disastrous in the infinitely complicated and dangerous world in which we live today." "As a people, we are too often ignorant, not only of the basic facts, but particularly of the meaning of our own history. We are even more poorly informed concerning the history and culture of other peoples. We are unaware of the profound changes that are occuring in the backward countries of the world as their people strain against the bonds of imperialism and strive for independence and freedom." Because their education in international affairs has been so inadequate, the people of this country have yet to realize that the spread of communism or the emergence of some other form of totalitarianism can be prevented only by positive measures." "Communism wins most of its converts among the underprivileged. It thrives on hunger, poverty, hopelessness and injustice. It can be counteracted only by the advance of justice and freedom, and the attainment of a higher standard of living for underpriveleged peoples." To the graduates he said: "You have the obligation to keep yourselves thoroughly informed on public questions, to reflect in your own lives the humane spirit of your university." This is not the time for complacency, for self centeredness, for uninformed opinion, or for failure to participate in decision making in community life, in national affairs and in international policy." It is the responsibility of the students of today to attempt through education, and educational freedom, to overcome the threat to freedom loving people throughout the world. New Meds Display Loyalty As a parting gesture of their loyalty to the school which gave them their education, this year's graduates of the Medical School, under the direction of class president, Robert E. Ploss, MD'5l, and chairman, Leonard S.. Danzig, MD'5l have subscribed the sum of $440 toward the building fund of the new campus Medical-Dental Building. U. S. Postage U PAID .Thermit No. 311 Buffalo, N. Y. y> Council Approves Tuition Increase The Council of the University late this month approved an increase in tuition rates for most divisions and at the same time had to approve a deficit budget for the forthcoming fiscal year. Effective in September the tuition in the College of Arts and Sciences and Schools of Engineering, Education, Business Administration, Pharmacy, Law, Social Work, The Graduate School of Arts and Sciences and the Division of General and Technical Studies will be raised from 5450 to $500 a year, effective in September. The tuition in the School of Medicine, SBOO, and in the School of Dentistry, 5650, were raised earlier this year and will remain at that level. ChancellorMcConnell explained the increase was due to the greater expenditure necessary for equipment, supplies and services, and stated that actually it is a very modest increase. The cost of living index has gone up S4y2 percent since 1939. If tuition rates were raised to conform with this, the charge would be S6Bl per year instead of $500. Still, the University's new rates will be substantially lower than the fees charged by a great many institutions of comparable character. In his statement to the council the Chancellor explained, "The University of Buffalo depends on student fees for more than 93 percent of its income, and next year, like all other colleges and universities, we anticipate a drop in enrollment. This, despite the tuition increase, has made it necessary to adapt a budget with an estimated deficit of S 135,000 for the coming year." Will Your Name Appear?? More than 18,000 alumni, in each of the 48 states and 23 foreign countries, will very soon receive their copy of the Alumni Loyalty Fund's Honor Roll. No doubt the first thing to be checked will be the total number of givers. Undoubtedly class lists will be checked and the names of classmates who have given will be noted. The amount, as in years past, is not listed because, while the amount of the gift is important, the more important fact is that every alumnus should give and share in the pride of continued interest and investment in their Alma Mater. � Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

At any rate, the fact that the American Pharmaceutical Association's 98th annual meeting was a decided success must be credited to an aggressive arrangements committee composed largely of University Honorary man sity's was chairUniver- Pharmacy Dean A.

Wright, Jr., '32; Alphonse C. Chimera, '28; Catherine Gallagher Redden, '18; and Gretta Moore Lemon, '19. Among the important stands taken by the convention were a firm disapproval of the inroads of the federal government into the practice of medicine and pharmacy, and a resolution urging that state fair trade laws be restored to their former effectiveness. The convention also scored the establishment of prescription departments in super-markets and other establishments whose principal business is the sale of merchandise not primarily related to the matters of health. At the conclusion of their session, Mr. Pritchard was appointed vice-chairman of the House of Delegates, the Association's Lemon, governing body.

Nursing Alumnae Have Homecoming As the academic year came to a close, the Nursing Alumnae Association had its first annual Homecoming Day and heard Chancellor T. Raymond McConnell state that some time in the future the School of Nursing would be moved to the campus as part of what could be "the best center related to human health in the world". Dr. McConnell spoke at the dinner which climaxed a day devoted to professional sessions held in Norton Hall on campus. The Chancellor stated he could not name the day when the School would be located on campus but said the time would come when it would be located in conjunction with the new Medical-Dental building soon to be completed. He added that the building was planned so that extra floors and additional wings would be added. Principal speaker at the dinner was Dr. John T. Horton, BA'26, head of University's department of history, who stressed the importance of our ties with the European continent. A testimonial plaque was presented to Dean Anne W. Sengbusch, BS(Nrs)'3s, EdM'39, in behalf of the alumnae by Ruth £. Schlagenhauf, BS(Nrs)'34, first student to receive the bachelor of science degree from the School. Presiding at the dinner was Hazel H. Harvey, BS(Nrs)'3s. FIVE YOUNGSTERS NO BAR TO LL.B. Ever meet those people who say, "Well, 1 might have gone to college and graduated, but I got married and my responsibilities mounted and I just couldn't find the time?" Then, meet Mrs. Edward B. (Dorothy McClarin)Murphy, mother of five strapping youngsters and wife of a practicing attorney (U. 8., IXB '27), who can write "LLB '51" after her name now. Dorothy Murphy, 36, was the only woman member of last June's law class of 76 graduates. She's 5 feet, 2 inches tall, and Murphy. '51 a "powerhouse" of energy. Shemarried Edward while both were singing in the choir of AH Saints Church in Buffalo and they were married in 1935. As she tells it, she sat fascinated as her husband told of his law cases and legal controversies and resolved to study law herself. Just after her fifth youngster was born, Mrs. Murphy completed her high-school education at Hutchinson Evening High School and then attended evening classes at University's Millard Fillmore College to complete her pre-law studies. In the fall of 1948, she was admitted to the University's Law School. By this time, one might well ask, "How did she do it?" First, it took determination. And, Dorothy Murphy had plenty of that, too. She organized her family into a "team," each having his specific duties and each checking on the other to make sure that tasks were done. Believe it or not, the only extra help she had during those years of study was that of a high school youngster who came in two evenings a week to give Mrs. Murphy time for extra study. Dorothy McClarin Murphy, LLB'SI as she is listed in Alumni Office records —exhibits no false modesty. She admits it took "some doing." However, she hasn't had time yet to acquiesce to the statement of one of her instructors who commented, "Where else but in the United States would one find this happening —an individual woman having the courage and the vision and the initiative to organize her life so that she might avail herself of further education to the improvement of her own lot, that of her family, and ultimately that of her community?"

Puffer; Mrs. Hazel Robinson Barry, PbG '14; and William F. Jacobs, MD '08. Professor of Chemistry Albert P. Sy, PhD'oB, who has taught in the University for 56 years, was honored at a surprise dinner party on August 7th at the Niagara Falls Country Club by more than 70 of his former students, University faculty members, and friends on his 79th birthday. High spot of the evening was the presentation to the University of a beautiful color picture portrait of Dr. Sy. It shows the professor, dressed in his blue and black doctoral robes, seated in the library of Foster Hall. Presentation was made by Mrs. Hazel Robinson Barry, PhG'l4, and Dr. Claude E. Puffer, University treasurer, accepted on behalf of the University. Dr. Sy heard several speakers praise his years of remarkably effective teaching, cite the many friendships he has made, and warmly laud the inspiration he has been to so many of his students. Dr. Puffer also noted the sincere interest he has had in the University itself. The beloved teacher told the diners that he "never had been speechless before, but I don't know what to say tonight." "I certainly am surprised and certainly have had the finest time of my life tonight," he added. "I didn't suspect that anyone could make in 79 years as many friends as are here tonight." He smiled as Dr. Puffer read from some old University records that he was paid $500 a year when he was hired in 1895. "I was very proud of that salary," Dr. Sy recalled. "And I got two weeks' vacation—without pay!" All schools of the University were represented at the dinner. Assisting Mrs. Barry in the arrangements were Charles M. Dake, PhG'24, MD'3O; and William F. Jacobs, MD'OB. Born in Altamont, 111., on August 7, 1872, Dr. Sy received his bachelor's degree from the University of Illinois in 1894. He won his master's degree from the same school in 1898, and in 1908 became the first person ever to be awarded the doctor of philosophy degree by the University of Buffalo. A noted research worker and author of numerous works on chemistry, he was chairman of the department of chemistry for 23 years. He also has been a member of the University Council for more than 25 years. Normally, the University requires its professors to retire at the age of 72. However, in recognition of his long and devoted service, Dr. Sy has been allowed to continue teaching as long as he feels able. Sheehan.

Pediatric Nursing Program Arranged SCHOOL OF EDUCATION ADOPTS NEW PROGRAM An advanced program in "Pediatric Nursing" has been established by University's School of Nursing and Buffalo Children's Hospital. The new program, evolved through the long-standing cooperative relationship between the University and the hospital, is designed for the graduate nurse who wishes special practice and instruction in pediatric nursing. The first class begins The University is among 17 eastern universities whose graduate schools of education have adopted a new program to improve the preparation of superintendents, principals, and other school administrators. Established last August on a nationwide basis by the Kellogg Foundation and the American Association of School Administrators, the regional program has as its aims the modernization and improvement of the preparation of school administrators. Now in a developmental stage, the program will afford graduate students the most modern type of instruction and extensive opportunities for field work and for consultation with local, state, and national school administrators. Dr. Burvil H. Glenn, associate professor of education, recently attended the conference of educators at Teachers College, Columbia University, the regional center from which announcement of the new plan was made. this month. Covering one academic year of fulltime study, the curriculum combines University courses and clinical study with field experience in the hospital. The program may also be applied to constitute the clinical unit of the curriculum which leads to the degree of bachelor of science or master of science in nursing. DR. MacNEILL NAMED LABORATORIES' CHIEF The University last month announced the appointment of Dr. Arthur E. MacNeill as chief of laboratories in the Chronic Disease Research Institute.

Chancellor T. Raymond McConnell addressed the new students and there followed three full days of "orientation" activities for the newcomers. Admissions Counselor Jack M. Deeringer, EdM'4B, was in charge of the program. " * Engineers' New Course * Presented in accordance with Univer- sity's policy of making a broad range of services available to Western N. Y. industries, branches of the Armed Forces, and government, is a new course in Servomechanism Fundamentals at the Niagara Falls plant of the Bell Aircraft Corp. Servomechanisms are devices used in automatic flights and in controlling guided missiles. Since the science of these new mechanisms is fairly new, Bell asked the University to make the training available at the plant. College credit is given for the course which is offered on the graduate level. ROTC Unit Starts University's newly-established ROTC unit of the Air Force began operations with the opening of the fall semester, September 17th. All entering freshmen are eligible for the program while certain sophomores and juniors with previous military experience also will be eligible. Mr. Crofts Honored George E. Crofts, University treasurer and comptroller who retired June 30th after thirty years of service, was honored that month when he was initiated into Beta Gamma Sigma, national honorary business administration fraternity. New Math Society The National honorary mathematics fraternity, Pi Mu Epsilon, has awarded chapter a to the Mathematics Department at the University. Known as the Eta Chapter of New York, the new society has initiated more than 25 charter members. Justice Jackson Lectures The first lecturer under the James McCormick Mitchell, LLB'9B, Fund in University's Law School was Associate Justice Robert H. Jackson, LLD'46, of the U. S. Supreme Court. His subject was "Wartime Security and Liberty under Law." Progress is being made on erection of the new Medical-Dental Building on the campus. Pictured here is the north wing, first section going up, as it appeared early in September. Completion is scheduled for early in 1953. GRANTS & BEQUESTS INSURE PROGRESS The growing stature of the University in the fields of teaching and research is continually being acknowledged by the grants and bequests which are awarded to insure those vital concerns of education. Recently, the National Foundation for Infantile Paralysis presented the University with a check for $41,048 to establish a new study center for research into bulbar poliomyelitis at the Chronic Disease Research Institute. George C. Rice, Buffalo realtor and builder, who died this summer left $500,-000 to the University as an endowment, giving the University power to use income from the principal for any purposes designated by its Council. Awards from the federal government and from heart associations recently have totaled more than $50,000 and will provide for research in heart disease, cancer, and rehabilitation. SUMMER SESSION ENROLLS 2,800 The University's Summer Session had nearly 2800 students in attendance, according to Dr. Leslie O. Cummings, director. A wide variety of courses covering almost all departments of the University were offered, as well as the usual summer evening session classes. Highlights of the program were a three-day workshop for educators and parent-teacher leaders from all parts of Western New York, a summer program for youngsters aged six to twelve, and an arts and crafts exhibition of the work done by art students of the Summer Session. NOW IS TIME TO VISIT CAMPUS How long has it been since you visited the campus? Sure, you've said from time to time, "I must take a couple of leisure hours one of these days and drop out to the campus and see what's going on." Be assured you will be most welcome! Chancellor T. Raymond McConnell has made it a special point in almost all his talks before alumni groups to extend the hospitality of the campus faculty and staff to graduates and their friends; in fact, he has urged them to stop in for at least an "Hello" at his office in Hayes Hall. There are things happening on the campus: the new Medical-Dental Building is going up speedily and every alumnus should drop by to be a "sidewalk superintendent" for a while. Then, too, there are the many departments of the University where so many alumni have spent so many days—these, too, are doing interesting things and using new techniques you'll want to observe. And how long has it been since you saw that "favorite professor" of yours? The campus is loveliest, too, in the fall of the year. Come this month!

Seems a School of Education graduate received his annual letter from his Class Agent, and he thought so highly of what his friend wrote in his personal note that he passed it on to the Alumni Office and thence to the Fund Committee. The Class Agent mentioned some casual personal matters and then he wrote this final paragraph. "Charlie, have you ever invested any money? If you have, you know how carefully you watch and nurture that investment. It just occurred to me the other night that you and I have made a darned important investment by simply attending and graduating from such an institution. You know, it's vital that we keep our hand in that place—that we keep informed on its policies, that we let the powers-that-be know what we think, and, above all, that we keep the school forever progressing and stable through an annual financial expression of our interest in our investment." got Seated, left to right: Coach Sidney Schwartz, BS(Bus)'4O, Henry Nemczycki, Capt.

Fencing at the University started as an "additional" sport back in 1936 when those interested in the foils and epees would gather in Norton Hall's unfinished basement to learn as much as they could about lunges and parries. Kenneth D. Greene, BA'2l, MA'22, now on active duty with the U. S. Army as a major, was the first coach for the group and he served in a voluntary and unpaid status. However, his expert tutelage brought results for it wasn't long before the fledgling sport began to attract the attention of other students and the athletic department. Other colleges began to seek matches with the University team; and the team itself commanded respect as they won match after match and turned out excellent individual fencers year after year. Fencing is now a varsity sport at the University. In the past few years, opponents have included major colleges and universities in the East and the Midwest. Despite such stiff competition, the University swordsmen have maintained excellent won and lost records each year. One of the best of these was during the last season when the team pictured above won 12 matches while losing only 2. Among those defeated were: Case, Toronto, Syracuse, Detroit, Clarkson, and Oberlin. Losses were to Michigan and Cornell, in each case by narrow margins.

You can't help it—you'll be in that annual mess pretty soon. The way things are today, everyonemakes out an income tax return. In fact, if you have made out a couple of these returns, you know that it's been practically forced on you to allocate your monies wisely, where those dollars will do the most good. And you might as well allocate them —or else you'll pay 'em in tax to the government! Here's what a taxexpert recommends for benevolences —and the University comes under that classification: NetIncome Lfter Income Taxes $ 3,000 4,000 5,000 7,500 10,000 12,500 15,000 20,000 .

Chancellor McConnell spoke of investment in the University as an investment in "a dynamic enterprise" where "earnings are plowed back, not into the institution, but into the lives of its graduates, into the cause of truth and honor, into the advancement of many professions, into a better life for all members of the community, into the prosperity of business and industry in this area, and into the wealth of the whole Niagara Frontier". DevelopmentProgram The Chancellor, in pointing out that privately-financed and independentlycontrolled higher education faces the danger of state control, stated that the University in maintaining its growth and progress must depend on corporations, friends of the institu- tion, and its alumni. Dr. McConnell applaudedthe alumni pledge of more than $700,000 to the 1947 Centennial Fund and stated that in so doing they "dramatically demonstrated that they expect to underwrite the future of the University". He went on to state that the University would also look to its friends among the citizenry and business to participate with the alumni in a forthcoming Development Program designed to finish the Medical-Dental Building and to secure funds for a new building to house the Physics Department and provide badly-needed classrooms for other departments. It is expected that the first steps to secure these funds for the Development Program will be taken in the spring of '52. Value to Community Council President Knox also praised the participation of alumni in the previous development of the University. He cited the fact that the graduates have indeed by their participation in the professions and businesses of the Niagara Frontier underlined the enduring value of the University to the community. Honorary toastmaster was Chancellor-Emeritus Samuel P. Capen who delighted the audience when he referred to them as "fellow-alumni", noting his own degree of Doctor of Civil Laws conferred in 1950. Alumni-President Myron A. Roberts, as toastmaster. In his DDS'3O, acted concluding remarks, he suggested that the Alumni Luncheon become an annual affair on campus and his thought was enthusiastically endorsed by the graduates present. �Alumni Bulletin 2 REPORT OF THE To the Council of the University of CHANCELLOR FOR 1950-1951 (ABSTRACT) Buffalo: I have the honor to submit the report of the Chancellor for the academic year 1950-1951. THE UNIVERSITY SERVES THE COMMUNITY On many occasions, the University of Buffalo has pledged itself to meet the broad educational needs of the community, which has become a vast metropolitan area of more than one million people with a greatly diversified and constantly growing industrial economy. The University has deliberately and explicitly chosen to accept the responsibilities of an urban institution. One evidence of the urban character of the University, is that it is the only institution in this region which offers training in all the principal professions, including graduate work in the arts and sciences. What the community sometimes takes for granted is in fact an invaluable asset: the cultural, professional, civic, business, and industrial life of this area is constantly strengthened, expanded, and enriched by the continuous flow of highly trained young men and women into community service and into professional and specialized callings. It is no accident that Buffalo is one of the most outstanding centers of medical and dental practice in the nation. This distinction is the product of intimate cooperation between the Medical and Dental Schools, the Schools of Nursing and Pharagencies assomacy, the great hospitals and other health ciated with them, and the distinguished members of the professions who have served on the faculties. The people of this area live in the confidence that they have immediate access to the best of medical service and that the health of the community is the constant concern of its great professional bodies. What a healthy people and a healthful community mean in actual dollars to the industries which in peace and war are responsible for a large part of the nation's productive enterprise is enormous. Millard Fillmore College Expands Its Activities A very great part of the University's direct service to the community is performed through Millard Fillmore College. With an enrollment of more than 5000, this is one of the largest late-afternoon-evening divisions in relation to population in the country, and it is constantly meeting new needs, whether for cultural pursuits or for advanced training in science and technology. Among the new programs it undertook in 1950-51 were for sections of management training courses taught at the Pennsylvania Railroad offices; two sections of business letter writing taught at the Manufacturers and Traders Trust Company; a training program for personnel of the Iroquois Gas Company, taught partly at the plant and partly at Townsend Hail; an orientation course for newly- employed engineers at the Sylvania Products Company, given on the campus during the summer. The Pennsylvania Railroad considered its management courses so successful that it has asked the University to extend the work to Olean, Dunkirk, and Rochester during 1951-52. Several of the smaller cities in Western New York are experiencing industrial expansion, and some of the firms in these localities have asked us to bring the University's educational services to them. Many other examples of liaison with business and industry could be mentioned. By adding to the courses already offered, a two-year curriculum in Real Estate, leading to the degree of Associate in Applied Science, has been worked out in cooperation with the educational committee of the Real Estate Association. A work-study plan has been inaugurated as a new feature of the curriculum in Retailing in the School of Business Administration which has been so successfully conducted with the assistance of several of the community's largest retail stores. At a more advanced level, two programs are especially noteworthy: Millard Fillmore College, the School of Engineering, and the School of Business Administration have continued the cooperative plan for graduate training in engineering and management for Westinghouse employees, and a graduate course in servomechanisms has been given for engineering staff at the Bell Aircraft Corporation. In spite of the growth of such advanced programs in recent years, I feel we have made only a beginning in offering high-level courses to the scientific, managerial, and production personnel in the region's industries. GreaterDemands for Graduate Study Some of this demand may be for short intensive courses covering specific topics. But the opportunity for offering through late afternoon and evening courses, varied curricula leading to the Master's and even to the Doctor's is almost unlimited. However it is extremely expensive to conduct an extensive program of graduate work, calling as it does for highly trained and experienced staff and for personal attention to students, particularly to those students who do not have access to the day-time facilities of the campus. educaAs the University makes every effort to meet the tional needs of the community, the community must also respond with more adequate support of the institution in supplying funds for classroom and laboratory facilities, for endowment, and for current operations. degree Institutes and Conferences the University may serve the Another way in which community is to sponsor a series of special institutes and professional with cooperation or civic conferences, often in organizations. The Schools of Nursing, Dentistry, Mediwith their alumni cooperation Pharmacy, in cine and associations, hold annual clinics which stress recent scien- tific and professional developments. The School of Business Administration holds an annual conference on industrial relations. Last year the School of Business Administration and the School of Engineering, together with the Buffalo section of the American Society for Quality Control held a well-attended one-day conference on Quality Control. The Law School is planning an institute on the work of law departments of cities and towns. Such projects as these can be multiplied many times with benefit to the community and, through constructive public relations, to the University itself. The principal handicaps are the amount of time it takes for the staff to plan and conduct these conferences, and the lack of residential facilities where conference members can work together under the best possible conditions. When dormitories are secured, it will be possible to use them extensively during- the summer for special institutes and meetings. Regional Program in Social Work Much has been said in favor of regional cooperation among colleges and universities in providing specialized educational programs, but little has been accomplished. However, the School of Social Work, as the only accredited School in the up-state area, has taken leadership in a coordinated program that includes both Syracuse University and the University of Rochester. Students take the degree of Master of Social Work at the University of Buffalo, but may do a considerable part of the course work at Syracuse, and a lesser amount at Rochester. Development ofContract Research Still another way of relating the University to the community is through its research facilities. Large corporations now maintain extensive research organizations and laboratories. Smaller industries and businesses, however, find it difficult or impossible to do so. Consequently, the University of Buffalo has an opportunity to make a significant contribution to the economic development of the corporaarea by expanding its research contracts with voluntary tions and business firms. Civic agencies, both and governmental, also need research assistance that only a diversified university staff can supply. Frequently the solution of a research problem requires the cooperation or assistance of specialists in more than one field. The University is a personnel pool from which the necessary talent can be drawn for work on a complicated problem. The advantage to the University in developing a strong program of contract research is that it can maintain a larger and more diversified faculty, encourage the staff to engage actively in investigative work, employ a larger number of graduate students as research assistants, and secure more adequate scientific equipment. The danger in such a program is that the energies of the faculty may be diverted too greatly from fundamental to practical projects of little scientific or scholarly value. But if the research program is properly administered, this disadvantage may be minimized. �January, 3 1952 Officefor Coordinating Research During: the past year, a small committee composed of Dr. Claude B. Puffer, Dean Stockton Kimball, Dean Julius W. Pratt, Professor Edmund D. McGarry, and Dean John A. Beane as chairman, studied means of stimulating and supporting more research of all types in the University, including contract research with industry. By extensive visitation, Dean Beane explored the needs of many firms in the Niagara Frontier. He attempted to estimate the University's present resources in staff and equipment, and he made a partial inventory of the consultative work nowbeing done by faculty members individually. This survey clearly indicated the need of an office in the University to expedite contractual relations with industry, to coordinate research activities and facilities, and to aid faculty members in securing support for their own research programs. This office should be established in the near future. ENROLLMENT TRENDS The postwar enrollment reached its peak in 1948-49. Since then, as the number of veterans has declined, the student body has decreased in size substantially. The enrollment in all day divisions in 1949-50 was 6124, and in Millard Fillmore College, 5062. The day division total dropped to 5095 in 1950-51,but the Millard Fillmore registration increased to 5325. This enrollment, however, was considerably less than anticipated when the budget for 1950-51 was prepared in the spring of 1950. It was necessary, therefore, to make rigid economies throughout the academic year, an unpleasant task in which the educational divisions of the University cooperated loyally. The actual income was approximately $240,000 less than the budgeted amount. In spite of that gap, the year closed with a deficit of less than $13,000. Budgetary Effects of Decline in Enrollment It was impossible immediately to reduce the educational budget in-proportion to the decline in enrollment, for reasons which are obvious to those who are familiar with university affairs. Furthermore, drastic budgetary reductions would have forced the curtailment or abandonment of educational programs which have been developed over a long period. It is extremely difficult to recruit an outstanding faculty, but very easy to lose it in a period of severe curtailment. Three objectives were imperative, therefore: to keep the principal staff intact, to maintain the educational integrity of the University, and to make at least a modest general increase in faculty salaries, which have long been too low. In order to accomplish these purposes, it was necessary to increase tuition in all the divisions of the University and to budget a deficit of approximately $135,000.00 for 1951-52. While deficits are to be avoided if possible, the University, during the period of abnormally large postwar the enrollments, set aside a stabilization fund to cushion decline in enrollment which, even without the complications created by the Korean war, it knew was inevitable. It is to be hoped that the actual enrollment for 1951-52 will be enough larger than the conservative prediction on which the budget was made to reduce the budgeted deficit materially. Long-Term Enrollment Problems In his annual report for 1948-49,Chancellor Capen predicted that as the number of veterans decreased the enrollment would decline to a postwar "normal" level of 4400 for the day divisions and 5000 for Millard Fillmore College. At this level, the day enrollment would be about two-and-one-fourth times as large as the prewar peak. clearly Since, as this is written, the nation lacks a formulated manpower policy, it is impossible to predict next year's enrollment with any confidence. It is to be hoped that the actual enrollment will fall not far below 4400 and that after a short period the size of the student body will rise steadily. Ifthis gain is to materialize, however the University will have to strengthen and expand its effort to attract students. With this purpose in mind, we have appointed a full-time Admissions Counselor to take charge of high school relations. But this is not enough. A broad public relations program, which the University has long needed, must be put into effect with adequate staffing. Residential facilities must be provided on the campus at the earliest opportunity. The educational offering must be made increasingly attractive to women, of whom the University has too small a proportion in the student body. Finally, the University should do much more to encourage desirable forms of student life; this is always difficult in an urban institution, but it is by no means impossible if students, faculty, and administration work wholeheartedly together. The size of the student body will determine to a considerable degree the number of specialties that can be offered to students and to the community. Many new curricula, undergraduate, graduate, and professional, have been added since the war, and they can be maintained only with a higher income level. This greater income, of course, must not come from tuition alone. It is essential, as has been said repeatedly, to secure large gifts both for endowment and for current expenditures. AIR FORCE ROTC Fortunately for the institution's enrollment prospects, its service to the nation, in the spring of 1951 the Air Force announced the selection of the University for the establishment of an ROTC Unit. The Unit was officially activated on July 2, 1951, and instruction began in September. There are more than five hundred students in the basic course, which is open to all physically-qualified freshmen. and for EDUCATIONAL DEVELOPMENTS Most of the educational divisions of the University are constantly studying their curricula. The School of Nursing has been engaged in a comprehensive survey of its programs. Through its curriculum committee, the College of Arts and Sciences has begun a review of its educational purposes and the means of their attainment, as the faculty resolved to do periodically when it adopted the major report of the curriculum committee in 1946. One of the most interesting of these self-surveys is under way in the Medical School. Under the leadership of Dr. Edward M. Bridge, fifteen young clinical instructors have each taken five freshmen as advisees, and have met with them every two weeks during the year. On alternate weeks, the instructors have met as a group to discuss curricular, instructional, and guidance problems in the light of their close relationships with representatives of the basic science departments, and with students. Faculty members from other divisions of the University also have attended these conferences. During 1951-52 the same instructors will carry their advisees into the sophomore year, and a new group of counselors will work with incoming freshmen. The discussion of problems of medical education will continue. From this project, which has evoked widespread interest and attention, it is not too much to expect that a fundamental revision of the medical curriculum may result. The Medical School project is contagious. The Dental School Faculty is considering a somewhat comparable program. Late in the year, faculty members from the Medical and Dental Schools, together with others from the social sciences, the physical and biological sciences, the School of Nursing, the School of Social Work and the School of Education met for a preliminary discussion of This a curriculum in the nature of human development. group considered an understanding of human growth and adjustment as a significant phase of general and liberal education, as well as a necessary background for specialized and professional curricula in many fields. The University of Buffalo is peculiarly fitted to take national leadership in the development of this type of educational program. CHRONIC DISEASE RESEARCH INSTITUTE During the year, the Chronic Disease Research Institute buildings, was established in the old Marine Hospital provide excellent which, after extensive rehabilitation, now quarters for the Institute, including the Alcoholic Information and Rehabilitation Center, and the Department of Physical Rehabilitation. CONSTRUCTION OF MEDICAL-DENTAL BUHJ)ING For several years the Council has had under consideration the construction of a new Medical-Dental Building to replace the completely outmoded and inadequate quarhoused. The need ters in which these two schools are now increasingly acute; in for this new structure had become School was threatened unless the accreditation of the fact, appropriate quarters could be provided. discussions of the matter by the of As a result many Council that body voted on June 26, 1950,to authorize the Committee on Buildings and Grounds "to proceed with plans and specifications for the Medical-Dental Building on the campus and to receive bids thereon and return �4 them to the Committee on General Administration for recommendation to the Council for action." After a favorable report by Paul A. Schoellkopf, Jr., chairman of a special advisory committee of alumni and members of the Council previously appointed to consider financial problems involved in proceeding with the new structure, and after hearing reports from the Committee on General Administration and the Committee on Buildings and Grounds, the Council, on March 14, 1951. by unanimous vote authorized the Committee on General Administration to execute contracts for the construction of the building at a cost not to exceed $4,500,000. Pursuant to this action, the Committee on General Administration approved contracts with several firms. Ground-breaking ceremonies were held on April 6, 1951. and construction was under way by the end of the fiscal year, June 30, 1951. Thus were the hopes and plans of the Council, the University, the alumni and friends of the institution over a long period of time finally realized. The decision to proceed with the building was in a very real sense a recognition of the leadership of Chancellor Capen. who long had urged the step. It was also the expression of the Council's determination to maintain the standing of the University's oldest division and of two of its most distinguished professional schools. The professions concerned, and the health and welfare of the entire Niagara Frontier, will benefit immeasurably from the forward-looking action of the University and its governing board. Toward the total cost of $4,500,000, the University has presently or prospectively available about $2,000,000 in special and general bequests, and in special and general gifts. The Council immediately turned to the problem of securing the additional two and one-half million dollars. It took cognizance, also, of another immediate physical need, to which the Faculty Advisory Committee had given priority second to the Medical-Dental Building; namely, a structure to house the Physics Department and classrooms and offices for other departments. The Physics Department, whose work is fundamental to all sciences, including the medical sciences, and to engineering, is housed in one of the oldest buildings on the campus. It is not only crowded,but lacks the instructional and research facilities necessary to keep pace with a fast-developing field. The additional classrooms and offices are essential to relieve desperate overcrowding, which will become even worse when, after a two-year period, the enrollment may be expected to rise again. These and other needs made it essential for the Council to make plans for both the immediate and the long-range financial development of the University. DEVELOPMENT COUNCDL, APPOINTED On February 5, 1951, the Council authorized the appointment of a Committee on University Development, to be composed of the Chairman of the Council and the Chancellor, ex officio, and four other members to be appointed by the Chairman. The functions of the Committee were outlined as follows: 1. To consider and study the immediate and long range financial needs of the University. 2. To keep the alumni informed of these needs and encourage their aid and support. 3. To help build up the volume of annual contributions and the flow of special gifts, grants and bequests to the University. 4. To provide plans to raise funds necessary for the construction and acquisition of new buildings and equipment and the rehabilitation of the existing plant. 5. To plan the financing of future educational, research and scientific projects. 6. To organize sub-committees to carry out these purposes. The Chairman appointed the following persons to the Committee: Paul A. Schoellkopf, Jr., chairman; Lewis G. Harriman; Charles H. Diefendorf; Francis A. Smith; and Alex F. Osborn. DEFENSE AND DEFERMENT COMMITTEES Relation to Defense Program As the year began, no one could tell how far or how rapidly the war in Korea might spread, how extensive the military mobilization might be, or how greatly the government, the military forces, and industry might command the facilities of colleges and universities. It seemed essential, therefore, for the University to be ready to meet Alumni Bulletin effectively and efficiently whatever demands might come. Preparation for these contingencies was made the responsibility of a Committee on Relations of the University to the Defense Program, of which Dean Paul E. Mohn of the School of Engineering was chairman. This committee proceeded expeditiously to make a survey of housingproblems; the University's resources for various types of specialized training for the armed services ; the research capacities of the several divisions; means of serving area industries, including the organization of what in the new situation would correspond to the ESMWT courses of the last war {which were than administered through Cornell University but which the University of Buffalo with its new School of Engineering is now fully capable of conducting); problems of civil defense; and methods of acceleration, including the admission of freshmen at the beginning of the second semester and the summer session. Dean Puffer made two trips to Washington to offer the University's cooperation and facilities to federal agencies. While many of the programs for which the committee laid the groundwork did not need to be inaugurated, its work was by no means unimportant, for the data it assembled will be useful in developing- the University's long-range plans. CAMPUS RESIDENCES Faculty Advisory Committee Report The Faculty Advisory Committee, of which Professor Edmund D. McGarry was chairman, continued to submit useful reports and recommendations. The committee completed a report on the building program, which included a list of priorities for construction. It also brought up to date and expanded an earlier report on dormitories. Committee on Student Housing A faculty-student committee on housing1 was appointed early in the year. This committee unanimously recommended that dormitories should be given first place in the University's housing development, and submitted a series of suggestions for planning" the residences. The architect incorporated these proposals wherever possible, after discussing his preliminary plans with the committee, and revised them in light of its criticisms and suggestions. The result should be an unusually efficient and satisfactory set of plans. MAJOR ADMINISTRATIVE APPOINTMENTS Three major appointments to the administrative staff of the University were made during the year: Dr. G. Lester Anderson, Dean of Administration; George N. Stevens, dean of the Law School; and Dr. Claude E. Puffer, who had been Dean of Administration since 1945, Comptroller and Treasurer of the University. Dr. Puffer, as Comptroller and Treasurer, succeeded George D. Crofts, who retired after thirty years in that post. His retirement, made necessary because he had reached the age limit, was accepted by the Council with regret. JAMES McCORMICK MITCHELL LECTURE The first lecture under the James McCormick Mitchell Fund, which was created in May 1950 in the Law School, was presented this year by the Honorable Robert H. Jackson of the United States Supreme Court. INAUGURAL CEREMONIES Two community events were held by the University in connection with the inauguration of the Chancellor on January 5 and 6, 1951. Delegates from many colleges and universities in the United States, in Canada and across the sea attended the ceremonies. A civic dinner was held on Friday evening in Hotel Statler; the principal addresses were delivered by Dr. James Lewis Morrill, President of the University of Minnesota, and Dr. Oliver C. Carmichael, Chairman of the Board of Trustees of the State University of New York. The Inaugural Convocation took place on Saturday morning in Kleinhans Music Hall. The installation was performed by Seymour H. Knox, Chairman of the Council, following which the Chancellor delivered his inaugural address GIFTS AND LEGACIES The University was the recipient during the year of many benefactions. A complete list of gifts and legacies received before July 1 is contained in the Treasurer's report. Only three, of special interest, will be mentioned here. George C. Rice, who died May in 17, 1951, established his will the George C. and Ida K. Rice Endowment Fund, �January, 5 1952 the principal to be held intact forever by the University and the income to be used for any purposes designated by the Council. This bequest may amount to nearly $500,000. In his will Mr. Rice made this significant statement: "Knowing the record and achievements of the University of Buffalo and the services it has rendered to our city and state, I cannot but feel deeply concerned in the future of this truly great institution during the coming difficult years and feel that it should have the substantial support of all good citizens." Mrs. Philip J. Wickser financed the acquisition by the University of the famed James Joyce Collection of literary materials and personal effects. Mrs. Wickser's gift will be an enduring memorial to her husband, a devotee of the law and the arts, who died August 14, 1950. In addition to acquiring the collection, the Lockwood Memorial Library has established the "Wickser Room," study quarters for scholars interested in Joyce and the literary movement which he influenced so markedly. Mrs. Thomas B. Lockwood established the Thomas B. Lockwood Memorial Fund with an initial contribution of $5000. This Fund will enable the University to purchase additional books and manuscripts of modern poets and to purchase rare books for the library's distinguished collections. The total amount of gifts and legacies received during 1950-51 was $293,284.34. APPOINTMENT OF INVESTMENT COUNSEL Since a complete report of the University's financial operations is appended herewith, lengthy comment at this point is unnecessary. I would like to say that the University has been unusually fortunate in Mr. Crofts' supervision of its investments. The University's investment account has become large enough now, however, to make it desirable to employ professional investment counsel. The Council therefore employed the Marine Trust Company as investment counsel, and the Manufacturers and Traders Trust Company as custodian of securities. This change is in accord with widely accepted practice among educational institutions. CONCERN FOR MORAL STANDARDS The nation has been shocked in recent months by revelations of malfeasance on the part of public officials and bribery and dishonesty on the part of certain college athletes. These transgressions have been deplored or, occasionally, excused. Too little has been said, however, about the culpability of those individuals, corporations, or institutions that have contributed to the dishonesty. While their actions do not absolve from blame the individuals who succumbed to temptation, they are equally guilty. Responsibility of Higher Institutions Colleges and universities that do not hold before their students high standards of ethical and moral behavior fail in their mission. If these institutions do not themselves maintain the highest integrity, they are unworthy of the responsibilities with which they are charged. Too many of them are vulnerable in their athletic policies and practices. By competing in the open market for athletes with excessive offers of financial aid, they contribute directly to the recipients' distortion of values. By treating players differently from other students, they compromise their primary purposes as educational institutions. By extending undue and sometimes surreptitious financial assistance, they debase the recipients and they tend to commercialize and professionalize what should in the interests of the games themselves be amateur sports. Effects of Over-Emphasis on Athletics Someonehas said that college athletic teams should be composed of students who play and not players who register. I take it this means that a student who attends college primarily to play football or some other sport has missed the point of higher education and that an institution which encourages him to do so has compromised its own educational principles, unless it frankly states that athletics come first in its hierarchy of activities and values. Athletics may contribute to broad educational objectives; they are defensible only as they do so. Stressed out of proportion to their educational values for students who participate in them, or out of proportion to the other activities of an institution, they may easily militate against the attainment of educational purposes. The insidious effect of over-emphasis on athletics is reaching into the secondary schools, and even into the lower grades. It is said that under the influence of the two-platoon system, elementary school boys are being drilled in a particular football position, and that thi3 specialization is continued through the high school. This practice seems to belie most of the values, such as adaptability and versatility, that have been claimed for competition in sports. But this is not the most serious result. Secondary school teachers and administrators are seriously concerned over the effect on the character and personality of boys whom the higher institutions begin to cultivate and bid for long before graduation. Those who are deeply interested in the maintenance of amateur intercollegiate athletics, including thoughtful sports writers and commentators; alumni who are jealous of their institutions' ethical and educational integrity; and the public at large, disturbed or disgusted by the inroads of commercialization and professiorialization, are demanding reform. It is high time colleges and universities put their own houses in order. The following would seem to be a minimum basis for a sound and defensible athletic policy and program: 1. Students who participate in intercollegiate sports should be treated like all other students with respect to academic standards and procedures, including standards for admission. 2. All financial aid for all students contributed for athletes should be administered by the institution's regular committee on scholarships and loans. 3. There should be no athletic scholarships. Students interested in athletics should be considered for grants-in-aid on the same basis as other students. The maximum amount of scholarship assistance or other grant-in-aid for an individual athlete should not be greater than that for any other student. The number of scholarships or grants-in-aid awarded to athletes should not be out of proportion to those available to other students. i. Steps should be taken to make certain that athletes receive no surreptitious financial assistance or compensation. 5. An institution interested in intercollegiate competition should maintain a balanced program of intercollegiate sports. If it is truly interested in the educative values of athletics, it should also provide an adequate intra-mural program. 6. An institution should build its intercollegiate schedules by playing schools with comparable educational standing and comparable athletic policies. CONCLUSION This report opened with an emphasis on the many specialized services that the University should provide for the community. But these contributions, important as they are, will not discharge the institution's obligation to its constituency. Neither will they alone justify its existence and continued growth. The University's primary purpose should be to educate informed and responsible citizens capable of enlightened civic leadership. If it is to attain this purpose, the University must protect its intellectual freedom and maintain its educational integrity. All who are loyal to democratic principles, all who believe deeply in the free individual and the free society will resist any attempt to curb the right to seek the truth. But as it insists on the right of intellectual freedom, so must the University accept the responsibility of intellectual integrity. It has been wisely pointed out that freedom for students to learn is the corollary of freedom of faculty members to teach. The function of a university is not to propagandize but to lead the student to determine facts, weigh evidence, define values, examine points of view, and arrive at independent judgments. This is not to say that scholars and teachers should not have convictions or, which is fundamental, the right to express them. Neither is it to say that they are always free of biases. Though scholars and teachers should be less the victims of prejudice, partizanship, or dogmatism than persons with less rigorous intellectual training, nevertheless, being human, they should be excused some limitations. But they should possess invariable strengths, as well. One of these should be deep respect for the student's right and obligation to seek the truth and to find the path of uprightness. I have known very few faculty members indeed who violated this ideal. The report of the Comptroller for the fiscal year ending June 30, 1950 follows. Respectfully submitted T. R. McCONNELL, Chancellor. �Alumni Bulletin 6 Interest on Mortgages Payable Rental Property Expense Collection of Pledges Funded Depreciation REPORT OF THE COMPTROLLER (ABSTRACT) To the Chancellor and the Council of the University ofBuffalo: The annual report of the Comptroller and Treasurer for the fiscal year which ended June 30, 1951 is presented herewith. The University at June 30, 1951 was a corporation worth $22,187,993.87. Its total assets were distributed as follows: Endowment Assets and Funds Temporarily Functioning as Endowment Assets, $8,566,731.72; Plant Fund Assets, §10,676,721.83; and Operating Fund Assets, $2,944,540.32. Special Purpose Funds of the University now total $6,384,143.42, as against $6,222,882.78 at June 30, 1950,an increase for the year of $161,260.64. They furnish the backbone of the University's Endowment Fund, representing, as they do, the professorships, lectureships and scholarships which help to attract able scholars to the University's faculty and young men and women of ability and promise to its student body. They serve also as memorials to the generous donors whose names they bear. Analysis of Land, Buildings and Equipment, shows the total value of Land, Buildings and Equipment at June 30, 1951 at $9,971,760.08. During the year under review, ground was broken for the new $4,500,000 Medical-Dental building on the campus. Also during the year under review, a new asset came under the jurisdiction of the University. It is the Chronic Disease Research Institute and Alcoholic Rehabilitation Center located at 2183 Main Street, the site of the former United States Marine Hospital. Under a cooperative arrangement with the Public Health Service of the Federal Security Agency, and the Department of Health of the State of New York, the University is authorized to establish, operate and maintain the institute for the purpose of conducting research into the causes of chronic illness and the development of improvedmethods of prevention, early diagnosis, treatment and rehabilitation in connection with such diseases. While the buildings for the enterprise remain the property of the federal government, they are under the full authority of the University as to their operation and maintenance. For the fiscal year ended March 31, 1952, the State of New York has appropriated $300,000 to cover the entire cost of operating the Center. It is expected, also, that some additional income and research grants will be received from other sources. The University buildings and grounds are in an excellent state of upkeep and maintenance. The buildings are inspected regularly from roof to basement, and repairs are made where indicated. A regular schedule of painting is maintained, as well as pointing up and caulking of all areas calling for such treatment. The trees on the campus, both deciduous and conifer, are sprayed in the proper season and a regular schedule of trimming and pruning is maintained for all deciduous trees. Fortunately all areas of the campus have been improved and landscaped. To keep the campus beautiful now is largely a matter of proper care and maintenance. The following is a comparative table of operating income and expense of the University for the fiscal years ended June 30, 1949, June 30, 1950 and June 30, 1951: Income 1B48-1949 1949-1950 1950-1951 Fees Received from Students..S3.S37,204.20 Income from Investments 190,308.95 Dental Infirmary (Net) 19,312.55 1,740.00 Rental Property Income Miscellaneous 13,896.08 S3,695,591.31 216,109.67 11,889.77 1,780.00 13,516.43 S3.072.509.8' .84,062,461.78 $3,938,887.18 S3,389,442.

The decrease was due in large measure to the continued departure of the veterans who have completed their courses of training under the G.I. Bill. However, mobilization for war also made its inroads into the student body to some extent. The decline in enrollment was felt in all departments except the Schools of Medicine and Dentistry, where enrollment always remains fairly stable, and the School of Nursing. Fortunately the administration had anticipated the falling off in student fees and was able to put economies into effect in all departments of the 1950-1951 budget, with the result that the year closed on June 30, 1951 with only a slight operating deficit of $12,514.10. During the year under review the University Council decided to seek outside counsel for the management of its investment portfolio and to turn the physical keeping of its securities over to an outside custodian. Accordingly, The Marine Trust Company of Buffalo was engaged as investment adviser and the Manufacturers and Traders Trust Company as custodian of its securities. The market value on the day the securities were turned over by the University was 118.62% of their cost, or book value, or $1,478,821.94 in excess of their cost, or book value. During the year under review the University received the following sums in full or part payment of bequests, grants and gifts: New York State Grants-in-Aid for Chronic Disease Research Institute and Alcoholic Rehabilitation Center, $241,319.32; Estate of S. Margaret Berrick Meyer, for addition to the Edward J.

As for the financial condition of the University itself, I like to feel that it has never been in a more fortunate position. It has the following operating reserves and surpluses at June 30, 1951: Reserve for operating $ 50,200.00 Reserve for contingencies 100,000.00 Reserve for Income Stabilization 1,000,000.00 1,114,171.19 Operating Fund Surplus Total Reserves and Surpluses $2,264,371.19 Dr. With these operating reserves, the University should be able to face securely these immediate years of shrinking enrollment and declining student fees. In addition to the foregoing operating reserves amounting to $2,264,371.19, the Balance Sheet at June 30, 1951 shows an Endowment Investment Reserve of $121,387.58, which is made up of profits actually realized on the sale of securities in the University's Endowment Fund account. This reserve is designed to absorb all profits or losses realized on the sale or exchange of securities. Favorable as the University's position is in all these respects, however, there continue to be several elements of weakness in its financial structure. One of these is the fact, so often emphasized in my annual reports, that 90.65% of the annual income is derived from student fees and only 8.22% represent income from endowment. Until this situation is corrected by the building up of its endowment funds yielding free income, the University will continue to be in a dangerous position. As I come to take my leave of the institution which has been my life for almost fifty years, I am moved by two conflicting emotions, sadness and pride—sadness that one cannot go on doingthe thing one loves to do until the end, and pride in the University's steadygrowth over the years in resources and prestige and favor in the community. To have participated to any degree in that growth is its own rich reward. I extend my gratitude to the Council and to my colleagues on its committees, to the administrative officers of the University, to the faculty, students and alumni. To my loyal staff my gratitude goes beyond the bounds of expression. I shall forever share with all of them a deep and abiding interest in the future of the University of Buffalo. Respectfully submitted, GEORGE D. CROFTS, Comptroller and Treasurer.

Reminiscent of the '31-32 team, this year's Bulls are small but rangy. Althoughonly halfway through their season, they boast a 13 over 2 record and should prove even better as they progress through a top-flight schedule. Led by Captain Hal Kuhn, a senior, and Jim Home, yearling sensation, the eager-Bulls have topped the 100 mark twice this season and are currentlymaintaining a game average of 76 points. Kuhn and Home, incidentally, lead Western N. Y. college players with 19.7 and 16.3 game ay- High spot of the season, thus far, was the victory over Niagara UniverCoach Eiken sity. Another game yet to be played, which will attract a "full house" is that with Canisiua, traditional rival for Western New York cage supremacy. Eiken is pointing for this, and certainly has the material to work with. "Height, we lack, but our floor speed and shooting accuracy should make up the difference," says Eiken. So far, the Bulls have proved his point, for they have had little trouble with the oppositions' tall men. �8 jkAtimru Bulletin Dr. A, Borirsn lefitfn THE UNIVERSITY OF BUFFALO ALUMNI BULLETIN Published monthly except July, August and September by the University of Buffalo at 3435 Main St., Buffalo 14, N.

It is particularly fitting that the "theme" of this Bulletin should be centered on the educational plans of the schools and colleges of the University for the next fifty years. In December, the University sponsored a Mid-Century Convocation which brought together leaders from many fields of thought and endeavor to discuss the outlook for mankind for the next half-century. The outstanding success of that Convocation is well-known to alumni. And, now, in this issue alumni have an unusual opportunity to get a preview of the future plans and possibilities of each of the educational divisions of the University. I have found that although they like to reminisce, as all old grads do, the alumni of the University of Buffalo are unusually interested in its present activities and its future program. This is the mark of true alumni loyalty and we shall continue to keep the graduates and former students of the University up-to-date on its educational affairs. It is this informed alumni spirit that will underwrite the future of an independent University. We at the University are hopeful that this presentation will assist the alumni to greater understanding of their Alma Mater, its distinction and its future opportunities for service to young people and to the communities from which they will come. ,—\ �2... A University Is Many Things b G. Lester Anderson Dean of Administration y Without apology1, I am going to write about the University of Buffalo in a personal vein. I am addressing you, the Alumni of the University, for the first time —either in speech or writing. I joined the University faculty and its administration staff only last August. You, its alumni, have known it longer and know some aspects of it much more intimately than I ever will. Yet I hope you will not think me presumptuous if I write of my impressions of the University of Buffalo —its present and its potential. Two aspects of the University, each of which are somewhat paradoxical, have been impressed upon me. First, the University, founded in 1846, is no longer a young institution. As a result it has the wisdom that characterizes maturity. But several of the professional schools were founded-in the last twenty-five years, and two divisions,the Schoolof Engineering in 1946 and the Division of Generaland Technical Studiesin 1950, have been established in the last eight years. The University has the vigor and adaptability to changing social needs that are thought typically to characterize youth. The University then has its roots deep in the conserving influencesof more than a century of American history and the history of the Niagara Frontier, and at the same time has the vigorous dynamism of a perpetually youthfulinstitution. The second impression of the University of Buffalo, also paradoxical, is this. While the University of Buffalo was foundedand has been maintained for more than a century as an independently controlled and independentlyfinancedUniversity—obligated to no other social organization, governmental or private—it has had a strong and persistent sense of social responsibility to the people of Buffalo and Western New York. It would have been for the University to grow awayfrom the community. But, in truth, it has an intimacy with the community seldom achieved by institutions not controlled and financedby local or state governments. And this community intimacy is growing stronger. The Mid-Century Convocation of last December was a symbol of the mutual enrichment which the University and the Niagara Frontier are experienceasy ing. Suchqualities as these which have been impressed upon me the wisdom of maturity and the vigor of youth and independence coupled with social responsibility—are the characteristics of the University of Buffalobecause of the people associated with it. Again over these last several months Ihave been impressed by the people with whom I work daily. As the Dean of Administration I must each week, — indeed almost daily, meet with members of the Council,Deans and Directors of the divisions, departmental chairman,executive committees and individual faculty, members of the Treasurer's staff, the staff of Norton Union and the Alumni office, students,and others. These associations have been marked by a uniform and warm graciousness which I as a new administrator have deeplyfelt. I have been amazed not so much by the conscientious,constructive,and imaginative service rendered by the members of the Council but by the number of hours of detailed and laborious service put in by them on University affairs.This is true for both appointed and alumni-elected members. The University has also impressed me by its inspiring and knowledgable leadership, by a faculty both creative and conscientious,and a student body of modesty and good sense. A University is many things only a portion of which touch the life of any individual associated with it. Let me describe some of the important services not touched upon in the programsdiscussed by the Deans elsewhere in this Bulletin, When a student expresses an interest in enrolling in the University he meets with the Admissions Counselor.This office,established just last summer, has completed and extended many of the services formerly performed as well by members of the Dean of Studentsoffice. The Admissions Counselornot only provides bulletins and other information about the various educational programsof the University but meets personally the student and often his parents. There were, for example, 135 such face-to-face meetings in the thirty days between January 13 and February 13. An "Acquaintance Day" and other semi-formalprograms are arranged for groups of high school students interested in becoming students. A number of the Buffalo Hi-Y groups have recently been visiting the campus to come to know it better. The Admissions Counseloralso visits the high school on the occasion of their "College Days" and at other times strengthens our relations with the schools which are so important to us. The Dean of students office often arranges tests and gives specialized guidance to prospective as well as enrolled students. The Committeeon Scholarships and Loans is frequently able to assist students in bringing their plans for a University education to fruition. The housing bureau of the Dean of Women's office helps the out-of-towner arrange living quarters. The dormitory program, construction of which we confidently expect to begin soon, will tremendously improve our facilities for these out-of-towners.The officesof the Registrar in cooperation with the administrators of the colleges see that students are formally admitted and that �5 class schedules are arranged. Abundant extra-curricular activities are available to students. These are typically supervised and managed by the students themselves through the Board of Governorsof Norton Union. A word about these activities is in order. Somelook upon extra-curricular activities—writingfor the Spectrum, planning and publishing the Buffalonian,participation in such varied activities as the Blue Masquers or the Rifle Club, or preparing floats for Moving-Up Day —as fringe activities to University life. Suchis not the case. These activities enrich the lives of students in ways that are important to the accomplishment of the true purposes of a University, particularly the important one of educating a responsible group of young people for civic and social leadership. Theactivities which center in Norton Hall are an essential part of the University of Buffalo. Our only problem is that they are out-growing their quarters. Visit Norton some noon hour and be impressed! The University does not forget its gradare handed out at The Alumni Luncheon held in connection with the December convocation was to me the most impressive event of the two days. As I sat on the raised platform overlooking the more than nine hundred alumni and friends eating together and renewing friendships, I was completely sure of the vigor and dynamism of the University community. Thealumni office staff, the alumni officers, uates once diplomas commencement time. the class and college representatives serving their fellow alumni and the University are continuing agents of the interest which the University and its graduates reciprocally share. The University is not maintained by noble ideals alone, as administrators are well aware. The Alumni Loyalty fund is most important to the University. But noble ideals are basic and loyalty is a noble virtue. And so the Loyalty Fund, so well established at Buffalo, is symbolic of both the material and idealist support which the graduates of the University give their alma mater. I have been writing of services to students not made explicit in the reports by the Deans which follow in this Bulletin. But the University has other responsibilities than to provide an education to students in and out of classes. What is a University anyway? Any university worthy of the accolade that the use of the name confers—andthis is most definitely true of the University of Buffalo—is basically a community of scholars. This community is here to serve the larger community in three ways: (1) to educate the youngpeople who are admitted to its schools and colleges, (2) to discover new truth and to show its relevancy to the solutions of the problems of life, and (3) to give to the larger community the intellectual,cultural, and civic leadership through service that a group of scholars are best equipped to give. The University is not then a relatively simple, static, homogeneous community. Rather it is complex, dynamic, and diversified.Studentsmust be served always. But the Buffalo faculty moves forward with its research—in the sciences,the humanities, and the social sciences;in law, medicine,engineering, and all the other important professional areas. The faculty members seek out new knowledge on their own and in organized groups such as the Chronic Disease Research Center and the recently established Educational Research Center.The University aggressively seeks to make the talents of its faculty useful to other groups of the Niagara Frontier through such facilities as the also recently established Corporation Liaison Office. What of the future of the University? The future is best predicted by the past. The past of the University of Buffalo is remarkable for its dynamic qualities,—for the vision and service of the citizens of Western New York who contributed to its establishment and development and for the loyal devotion of its staff to the high purposes of a communityoriented University. I would not have joined the University of Buffalo faculty to share in their labors if I had not been confidentthat this past history would be the history of the future. The dynamic power of the Western New York community and of the people who serve at the University of Buffalo will carry the institution forward. We can not see in detail the developments of the next half century. But we know that they will be real and relevant to the total life of this community and the na- �6 Education For Effective by Julian Park Dean of the The fate of our democracy, whatever it may be, is also the fate of our colleges of liberal arts. They can exist only so long as democracy exists. Regimented ideas and colleges cannotlive side by side. A college in exile is an indictment of a civilization. But freedom and democracy are not static principles. All values change from age to age and the interpretation of one generation is seldom that of another. Today the conception of freedomis taking on a larger meaning than it has ever had. Our generation is thinking of the threat to freedomwhich comes from poverty and insecurity, from sickness and the slum, from social and economic conditions in which human beings cannotbe free. Our generation is <ust beginning to realize fully what it should have begun to suspect at the outset of the depression—that communism thrives on despair and frustration. Every social fact or phenomenon must constantly be reinterpreted and given its current value: it must be re-expressed in contemporary idiom to accord with contemporary thought. While it would be silly to maintain that "Time makes ancient good uncouth",it is equally true that "Time's winged chariot" brings strange changes in values; stagnation and death await ideas as well as social and economic arrangements which have lost their power to grow, to re-adapt, to re-adjust. Tobe sure, there is a balance to be maintained between the spirit of change and the spirit of conservation. There can be nothing real without both. A highdegree of critical selectivity is necessary if change is to be kept from degenerating into capricious variation. As Whitehead said in an article in the Atlantic, mere change without conservation is a passage from nothing to nothing;but, on the other hand, conservation without change cannot conserve. In the words of that great Frenchman Jaures whose heart was broken when he found that socialism could not prevent the war of 1914,when he was accused of neglecting tradition: "Take from the altar of the past the fire, not the ashes." The immediate has never been the realm of the truth-seeker. His provinces are the past, from which he kindles new flames after warming up the old ashes,and the Citizenship College of Arts & Sciences future, where he starts new fires in places where his knowledge of the past tells him they are the most needed. I am not necessarily praising the cloistered life; however, I would like to say that it mayincubate much needed thought, since thinking obviously is best done in quiet. The fuller the market-place is of shouting, sweating, shoving people, the fuller it is of empty-mindedpeople who are anxious to go somewhere but have a vague idea of their destination. Surely the student can do a necessary work for his nation in this grave moment of its history by detaching himself from many of its pre-occupations, deciding that he cannot save the country over-night, refusing to let himself be absorbed by distractions about which, as a student, he can do little. For this is not the last crisis in human affairs. War cannot destroy the spirit of man; worry can. Those who keep their heads in this crisis, those whose counsels we should be most willing to follow, are not the defeatist philosophers who have found life's struggle meaningless; not those obstructionists and isolationists who are completely done with the old world and its iniquities; but those who will help us to remove from our lives that transiency and sense of constantly impending change which is the fundamental source of all our worries. The young scholar can hardly without arrogance prepare consciously for himself such a career. But the young truth-seeker who will begin with habits of independent thinking will later come naturally into the way of the trusted truth-finder, who, though perhaps isolated, is yet a guide for many. Nor have I, unfortunately, anyformula to tell this or any other college how to prepare for such a noble end. I do not use the word "train", because it is one of the worst words in the whole educational jargon. Animals are trained,but men are educated. If we persist in using the word "train" let it be used correctly, in other words with a view to endowing people with skills and techniques and systems (all verynecessary for a livelihood), not with disciplines and philosophies (all very necessary for a life). All universities are criticized for being apparently indifferent to the practical affairs of their own community; a vulgar parlance calls it "high hat." I am convinced that this college will be properly subject to a good deal more criticism if it ever sells its birthright as a liberal arts college. But the practical application to local problems of theoretical work in political science is a somewhat different matter. Too many students leave college with a feeling that politics is beneath them. (The Dean of this college a few years ago was a candidate for Congress largely because he felt that people who talked and taught politics ought to have a practical taste; whether that taste was bitter or sweet is beside the point). Our students should not speak of politicians as if they always must represent some inferior sub-species of the human race. Is the remedy to add another course or two in government; to organize another club? That is the easy way. The problem lies far deeper. I wonder if there are not some things that cannot be taught, but only caught. Take the problem of leadership. Colleges are supposed to turn out leaders; if they do not, commencement speakers will lose their jobs. Leaders for what, you will ask. That is another story. Can you teach leadership? Where would you put it in the curriculum?Would you organize a department of leadership? And have a sequential course in Leadership 101 (for ward heelers,perhaps), 201 (for City Councilmen,perhaps), and so on to postgraduate work from which one should emerge fit to become at least a Governor and possibly a President? It is somewhat different,of course, but not entirely different, with citizenship. If we stick to our job honestly, quietly, sincerely, we shall find that communicating to our students the traditional wisdom of the race must include a good deal of public service and even public administration. In using the words "traditional wisdom of the race" I would be elastic,for surely the study of politics stresses both Aristotle and John Dewey, both Plato and Harold Laski. A college which fails in this fundamental obligation can hardly be called an educational institution, though it may place more of its students in jobs than any other. A college which does this, both educates its students and prepares �5 them for public life. President Hutchins used to quote an ancient sage as closing the discussion: "The same education and the same habits will be found to make a good man and a good statesman." But does that close the discussion? I would place preparation for public life, which has been concerning the college of late, on somewhat the same level as the new philosophyregarding preparation for the older professions of law and medicine. It was not very long ago, for example, that in most law schools the instruction was carried on entirely by lectures; discussions and moot courts were unknown. In medical schools,to be sure, clinics supplemented lectures, but bedside instruction was far from popular or general. Our own medical school has always had a remarkably enlightened view of what it expects from its entrants, and the Stateof New York through the Court of Appeals, which determines at least in part the entrance requirements for the law schools of this state, has taken an even more liberal view of preparation for the study of the law, since it requires no one subject. This is in effect an admission that the law student's future field is universal. No one can tell in advance what segment of knowledge may suddenly be called upon to bolster a case which is apparently of narrow interest. Not different is education for citizenship, which I submit is the supreme responsibility of the college of today—if we envisage citizenship in its broadest aspect, one not bounded by national frontiers. All courses in ethics and logic, sociology, history, economics,social psychology, as well as political science,help prepare the student for future political duties. Our concern for the fulfillment of these duties is not in contradiction to an earlier remark in these pages about the importance of concentrating on the traditional wisdom of the race. Oneis an application of the other, superimposed upon it. They cannot exist separately. The most fundamental assumption on which we have been building for the future is that effective citizenship in a democracy must involve active participation in the operation of government. Some of our students have already been taking an active part, doing what may be called laboratory work in party activities; but these students are too few and the opportunities so far open to them too limited. Somesuggestions for projects along this line, if we have the personnel to oversee them, might consist of the following: (a) A certain number of hours of actual party work in October.After choosing the party with which he wishes to work, the student might be turned over to a local party official who is willing to use him as assistant; this is not to be "made" work but genuine party activity. (b) As a second project in his training in practical politics, the student might be required to attend and report on a certain number of campaign meetings or political rallies; in his written reports on these, he would evaluate the campaign arguments and the public's apparent reaction to them. Through his attendance at these rallies (though it is probably true that they are steadily losing their importance, owing to the radio and parking difficulties) the student would have , opportunities not only to study campaign personalities but, much more important, to recognize and analyze various types of political appeals and propaganda. (c) A third series of projects might bring the student into contact with civic organizations which have definite and non-partisan programs,such as the League of Women Voters, or, in a larger field, the Council of World Affairs. (d) A fourth project might introduce the student to the manifold activities carried on by the social welfare agencies, where students not professionally trained can be useful, though in a minor capacity. (e) The fifth project is by far the most important and challenging. The Stateof New York has established about a dozen "interneships" at Albany for the study of and part-time participation in various of the Statebureaus and offices,paying a highly-selected group of college graduates from both in and outside the Statesomething more than a living wage.We think the time has come to see if this cannot be duplicated locally. The GraduateSchool of Arts and Sciencesstands ready to approve a certain amount of credit toward the M.A. degree for constructive,worthwhile work in a city or county office which would supplement classroom activity, the result being a thesis which might be a unique combination of the theoretical and practical. This will of course mean some appropriation from the city Dr county or from some public-minded organization or individual; the official concerned will have to be convinced that the interne selected will be worth it, for it can hardly be called a charity. These internes on the completion of the subsidy would be encouraged if not expected to apply for a position in public administration; a city managership should not be beyond their reach; and so the level of public life would be raised. The University intends to offer more courses conducted in the late afternoon and evening for city employees who wish to improve themselves. Here the services of an advisory committee consisting of various officials occupying key positions in city and county government are at our command. Their interest and suggestions, as well as those of Lieutenant-GovernorMoore and other Stateofficers,will be of great value. Surely the time has come for greater cooperation between town and gown. If this were a municipal university it would have come about long ago; yet we are a municipal institution in all but support. For our record of many years of cooperation with civic agencies is an honorable and mutually productive one. The high schools are used by the Department of Education, the social agencies by the Schoolof Social Work, the hospitals by the Medical,Dental, and Nursing Schools, the Art School by the Department of Art; the two public libraries were indispensable when the Library ScienceCourse was active. If a university ■with our tradition of free and honest inquiry should offer its services for a study of such a complicated subject as "suburbanites", or, (with more misgivings) for the even more difficult subject of the St. Lawrence seaway,one would think that the disinterestedness of such an offer would be apparent. The College stands ready to prepare a manual of city and county government which has been done here (and rarely elsewhere) in an accurate, scholarly and yet interesting manner. An outline of what we have in mind, covering a book of about 175 pages, has been prepared and it should not be difficult to financeit. Will the next few years see a redefinition of liberal education along the lines of what has come to be known as general education?Itis quitepossible; but I for one am not satisfiedwith any definition of general education that I have seen. If liberal education is not general education,what is it? The rest is mechanical detail. What most people have in mind as general education can best be centered by us, with our limited resources, on upperclass work rather than the freshman and sophomore years. There can be in those years more satisfactory use of interdepartmental resources, because of the greater maturity of the students concerned. One of the academic lessons of the recent war was that with good will departmentalism can be made to turn up its toes and die. In place of these artificial structures there were established during the war what were known as area and language schools. That is to say,the colleges brought to bear upon the interpretation of a given culture such as the Japanese any person and any information that were relevant, whether they had to do with economics or dating statues of Buddha or identifying volcanic ash or memorizing verbs. What we shall work on is simply the amplification and improvement of this program. In place of dividingone of the areas under consideration the North Atlantic community, the Slavic and eastern European area, or the Far Eastern and SoutheasternAsia territory among a dozen perhaps hostile departments, we ought to be able to bring to bear upon the interpretation of the area selected whatever specialties, whatever disciplines illumine the problem. Other topics beside the three just mentioned will occur to you: the interpretation of scientificmethod and the application of science in social terms, the history of representative government, the problem of personal relationships; and others. All this will not be easy;vested interests will seem to oppose or complicate the project; but surely it is more important for American undergraduates to understand thoroughly the Russian problem than it is to perpetuate a scholarly hierarchy. One sadly reflects,however, that no priesthood is ever reformed by its members. Our experience with interdepartmental courses has not had great success; and it leads one to the conclusion that such success as we havehad was due to a friendly desire to see an experiment through on the part of three or four men who were, too, good friends. never — — * * * Sanebut courageous experimentation is the law of educational progress.This law has been the guiding light of the College of Arts and Sciencesperhaps since its foundationnearly forty yearsago. Almost from the beginning the college was considered by the educational world as well as by Buffaloniansas not "just another college" but to be what is generally termed a progressive institution. �6 I do not however like that appellation, because it implies that progress is only achieved by the radically-minded colleges. All education obviously is progressive. The willingness,even the eagerness, of the college to try experiments is one of the salaries, why, despite low it has reasons never been too difficult to recruit able young leathers. Academic freedom is the other chiefreason. Most of the early facultyfelt that here was a noteworthyopportunity to break away with tradition if the new way seemed more promising. Ivycovered walls are more conspicuous than moss-covered curricula. If a considerable decline throughout the country in the number of college students should occur, colleges with nothing but traditions to offer will be the first to suffer. A considerable number of elective subjects was allowed in the curriculum from the beginning and a conscientious effort was early made to ease the transition from school to college. The catologue for 1918 says: "The lack of uniformity in college entrance requirements has been such an annoyance to secondary schools that the University of Buffalo, wishing to do its share in reducing the confusion to a minimum, places few restrictions on the nature of work in each subject." Not only did the restrictions placed on each subject become fewer, but the electives accepted for entrance became more numerous, with increasing emphasis on the rank in the school class held by the candidate for entrance, rather than standardized subject matter. The college could not, however,be too unorthodox or it would have had no standing with those whose recognition was essential. The fact remains that it was a new college, especially if it had freedom from state or church control, which generally has been the pace-maker in the development of the liberal arts curriculum. Andrew D. White, in Cornell's first Announcement, dated 1867, pointed the way to Gilman, Harper, and Eliot; Grinnell College in lowa, founded the same yearas Buffalo,made a similarly liberalizing contribution to a flexible curriculum. Long before 1920 colleges were liberal. Jefferson at the University of Virginia called for eight "schools" which would comprehend the traditional subjects and also make room for the newer scientific interests and provide for training in several professions. There seems to be here the germof Hutchins' reorganization of the University of Chicago. Not at Union, in 1928, emphasized for the first time the value of modern languages. More revolutionary was the upset at the University of Vermont 125 years ago under James Marsh. He proceeded on what seems the reasonable assumption (which has yet to gain universal acceptance) that everystudent must have something interesting and socially significant to do. Four departments, corresponding roughly to the usual divisional organization of today's college, were erected. A student would work in not more than two; no limit was placed on the number of courses or the time to be spent in finishing them. Not Eliot but Wayland at Brown, a hundred years ago, introduced the elective system, under faculty guidance; the student need not spend four years in college if he was able to finish in shorter time. These and many other instances that could be lifted from the pagesof educational history are mentioned for the sake of the record; we cannot imply that our college was a pioneer from the start in every experiment, merely that it profitted by the findings of others. It had faith, courage, and confidence;no endowment, no experience. Vet, only about fifteen years after it had graduated its first class, the National Society for the Study of Education ranked it first, in a tie with the University of Chicago, for the number and importance of the experiments it had already instituted. It has had, and always will have, the sense to drop if necessary, an experiment when it has been given a fair trial; and that has happened more than once; but the debt in which it has placed scores of other institutions has been acknowledged many times, particularly upon the report of its Curriculum Committeeof 1946,which reaffirmed its faith in the principle of free election. And that was at a time when Harvard was repudiating its child. The post-war years naturally saw innumerable efforts at re-appraising the college curriculum. Were some of them, and the resulting changes, made merely for the sake of change, for the sake of reporting to the outside world that we are up and doing, with a heart for any fate? Were some of them made because the war which has changed all things must inevitably have changed all educational concepts as well? Were some of them made because (I whisper this) Harvard said it first and most? Were some of them made because the thousands of returning veterans made it difficult, even impossible in many cases, to teach in the old way? Did they not demand that faculties begin to treat them, and other students as well, as if they were adults? Indeed it was difficult for us to reconcile the demands of mass production with our insistence on individuality and academic freedom of not only teacher but taught. It is going to be difficult in the future, simply because of economic pressures. Liberal education costs vast sums in proportion to those who take it. But the privately supported college has a duty which is almost peculiar to itself. It is historical fact that beginning with the famousMorrill act of 1862 publicly supported education has shown steadily less and less concern for liberal education. Federal and state money has gone more and more to vocational training. Publicly supported institutions have more and more stressed individual vocational profit through education;it is the so-called private institutions which have emphasized public service though not at the expense of the dignity of the individual. Cultural enrichment is clearly not a federal interest. We should no doubt be unreasonable if we expect it. In some state universities the arts college has become largely a service station for the professional and semiprofessional schools rather than an integral unit with a significant function of its own. Our main task in the years that lie ahead is to persuade the community that a quality college serves it best. We need not be unduly pessimistic over the future of a liberal arts college even in a highly community like Buffalo. If all the prophets of educational disaster were laid end to end (which, incidentally, might not be a bad idea) they would reach two thousand miles or so, from east to west. If my rough calculations are correct, they would probably end up in the desert or in the wilderness. If so, that is significant; for the desert is arid and the wilderness barren. No, we must meet the perplexities and uncertainties of the future with imagination and boldness. We must make every leading industry, every cultural agency, as well as the inner lives of thousands yet untouched,so conscious of the necessity of a college like this, or better, that they will wonder how they ever got along without it. It will be said by way of criticism that this is not one college, but so divided into specialized interests that it is fourteencolleges. In that there is all too much truth. I know of only one way to unify the curriculum —the development of a creative spirit. Methods differ widely, but that is your best measuring stick, the common ideal which unites the widely differing disciplines. It is a very difficult thing, or there would not be so little of it in the world. As Whitehead has remarked, it is worth the entire time of a large faculty if one member of a graduating class credits it with qualifying him for a creative life. A friend of mine in a graduate school was accosted by a student who objected to his new discipline as contrasted with his previous freedom in tutorial work. "If you people really cared for literature," was the complaint, "you would rather have me submit a drama of some poetic merit than a thesis based on sawdust." "You're quite right," was the prompt reply, "I'd much rather give you a degree on a poetic drama than wrestle with the thesis you are likely to write. Let's see the drama." "Well," said the student,"that was by way of illustration. I have never written a drama." But it was a good illustration. If great epic dramas have not yet been written by our students,the accomplishments that many of them can show at the end of their years with us prove that here young scholars have resolved to study in order to live. Biologist meets historian in the excitement of creating something that will create something else. Then the unity of all knowlege begins to be faintly realized. They will be one in shouting to the world their ardent faith and their indefinable longing and their youthful enthusiasm across befuddledaudiences of would-be educators like us their elders. And when, this lively unity being over, they scatter; when the slim thread that binds them is severed;when the world stretches more nearly over them and they move out of the rhythm of their common effort into their own lonely tempos, their alma mater will still be young, still hopeful and courageous,still trying to pass on her subtle and potent influence to the students of fifty years hence. industrialized �9 Education For Scholarship and Research by Julius W. Pratt Dean of the Graduate School of Arts & Sciences Organized graduate work began at the University of Buffalo in 1923, when ChancellorCapen appointed a Committee on Graduate Study and Degrees. The chairman of the Committeewas the late Edward J. Moore of the Physics Department. Its members were selected from the faculty of the College of Arts and Sciences and the pre-clinical departments of the Schoolof Medicine. The Committee supervised all work leading to the degrees of Master of Arts and Doctor of Philosophy until the creation of the GraduateSchoolof Arts and Sciencesin 1939- Dr. Moore, who had headed the "Graduate Committee" as it was called, then became the first Dean of the new GraduateSchool and served as such until his retirement in 1946.The faculty of the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences consisted at the beginning of members of professorial rank of those departments offering work leading to the M.A. and Ph.D. degrees. These departments were found in the College of Arts and Sciences and in the basic science departments in the Schoolof Medicine. In the meantime other divisions of the University were conducting graduate work leading to different degrees. This was true of the Schools of Pharmacy, Business Administration, Social Work, Education,Nursing, and Engineering. The principal development of the last few years has been the affiliation, on their own initiative, of the majority of these divisions,for purposes of graduate work, with the GraduateSchool of Arts and Sciences.Thus Pharmacy and Business Administration joined in 1948—the latter for the Ph.D. degree but not for that of Master of Business Administration; Engineering in 1949, and Nursing in 1951. The degrees of Master of Science in Pharmacy, in Engineering, and in Nursing are today all granted through the GraduateSchoolof Arts and Sciences. The trend, both here and elsewhere, seems to be in the direction of a single agencyto administer all graduate work. The Schools of Education and Social Work at present administer their own graduate degrees, as does the Schoolof Business Administration with the M.B.A. degree. It seems not improbable that at some time within "the next half-century" they too will find it desirable to associate themselves with the other divisions now offering their degrees through the Grad- which uate Schoolof Arts and Sciences, may then become simply the Graduate Schoolof the University of Buffalo. Whether or not such further accretion takes place, there is already in progress a process of geographical integration which can hardly fail to have a stimulating effect on graduate research and graduate teaching. It has been a subject of regret to many in the past that the basic medical sciences have been physically separated so far from related fields on the campus that fruitful contacts have been difficult. Soon all this will be changed. When the Schoolsof Medicine and Dentistry occupy their new building on the campus, the scholars of the predinical medical sciences—anatomy, bacteriology, biochemistry, physiology, and the others—will be brought into daily contact with their colleagues in biology, chemistry, physics, and psychology. There should result a cross-fertilizationof ideas beneficialto all concerned. By the same reasoning, the Graduate School should be one of the principal gainers from the proposed establishment of a Faculty Club. At present, faculty members meet for lunch or for informal conferenceswith difficulty and under circumstances scarcely conducive to the ready exchange of ideas. A Faculty Club, with attractive luncheon facilities and comfortable lounge, should do much not only to improve faculty morale and create a better esprit de corps, but also to provide mutual stimulation in both research and teaching. It might also do something toward correcting a tendency to overspecialization in graduate instruction of which some members of our staff have complained. The principal functions of a graduate school are to train scholars and to conduct research. The two, of course, are (or should be) inseparable. The scholar gets his training through conducting supervised research or assisting in the research of his seniors. In a highly industrialized community like the Niagara Frontier, both research and the training of scholars will inevitably lean toward science and engineering. Our GraduateSchool will continue to provide, as it has provided in the past, trained chemists and physicists for posts in area industry. Although our School of Engineering is still well within its first decade of life, it has already developed a large clientele of graduate students among the employees of local industries—young men whose employers are often willing to bear part of their tuition because of the increased usefulness that will result from graduate training. Graduate work in engineering gains new importance today because of current trends in undergraduate engineering education. As the undergraduate engineering curriculum devotes more time to the humanities and social sciences and less to engineering subjects,specialization at the graduate level becomes more and more necessary. But the GraduateSchool'sopportunities for usefulnessto Frontier industryare not confinedto its departments of science and engineering. The great corporation has need of numerous trained experts of other kinds—economists, statisticians,psychologists, specialists in labor relations and personnel management, to mention only a few. A corporation here and there may even wish a person with historical training to write its history. All these varieties of specialists with graduate training the University of Buffalo is competent to provide. The GraduateSchoolis also prepared, in the past, to be of use to industry through its research programs. Research, whether "bask" or "applied," is the lifeblood of industrial progress.Both kinds of research go on in our science departments, with a leaning toward "applied" research apparent in graduate work in as engineering. Emphasis has been placed upon the possible services of the Graduate School to industry because there seems good reason to believe that great industrial ex- pansion will be a notable development on the Niagara Frontier "in the next halfcentury." But the Graduate Schoolof Arts �10 and Sciencesis equipped to be useful in of community life other than the industrial. With a growing population and an approaching "bulge" in high school enrollment, there will soon be an increased demand for high school teachers. Many of these, as in the past, will take their advanced training in the subject-matter fields as candidates for the M.A. degree. Other young scholars will continue for the Ph.D. degree, here or elsewhere,and enter the ranks of college and universityteachers. The training in educational objectives and methods required of public high school teachers is at present offered by the Schoolof Education. For prospective college teachers no such program is required, but many are of the opinion that an exposure to some of the problems of teaching and administration in higher education would be profitable to graduate students planning to enter that field. Such a need could probably best be met by the joint efforts of the GraduateSchool and the Schoolof Education. Graduatework in nursing appears certain to undergo expansion in the next few years. Changing patterns in nursing practice, the growing number of students in undergraduate nursing programs,and the increasing number of responsible positions requiring more than undergraduate preparation—all point toward a demand for more nurses with graduate degrees. Suth persons will find employment in teaching, supervision, and administration. Graduate programs in the clinical specialties may also be developed to meet the needs of nurses who wish to qualify in those fields. The recent removal of the Schoolof Nursing from Townsend Hall to the campus has already produced useful iontaits between staff and students in nursing and those in related fields. The 1)epartment of Psychology will continue its recently inaugurated program of turning out well trained clinical psychologists with M.A. or Ph.D. degrees. many aspects The department hopes also to extend and enlarge the community services provided by the Psychological Clinic and the Vocational Counseling Center. A future possibility that should not be overlooked might be the merging of certain aspects of the work of the departments or schools of Psychology, Psychiatry, Sociology, Education, Government,Industrial Relations, Law, and Engineering in a program of teaching and research in Human Relations. Other useful interdepartmental programs may also be envisaged. An undergraduate program in American Studies, involving principally the Departments of English, History and Government,and Philosophy has just been inaugurated. With some additions to staff and library resources, this program could readily be extended upward into the graduate area. An interdepartmental graduate program in Public Administration is now under consideration. Considerablethought has also been given to various possible area programs and to a program in international relations. Each of these would involve numerous departments—Economics, Geology and Geography, History and Government,Sociology and Anthropology, the language departments, etc. and while they have been thought of primarily in undergraduate terms, they are obviously susceptible of upward extension. Any appreciable increase in the present graduate student body, and in particular any expansion of graduate programs leading to the Ph.D. degree, will entail increases in staff and in laboratory and library facilities.The most pressing needs of the science departments will be met when the new Medical-Dental Building is finished and equipped and a hoped-for Physics Building is added. But the humanities and social sciences will still be badly in need of seminar rooms with contiguous library and officespace. Restoration of the seminar rooms in Lockwood — to the use for which they were intended would ease the situation, but in the end it maybe hoped that a building or part of a building may be designated as a center for graduate in- Memorial Library struction and research in the humanities and social science departments. More pressing, however, is the need for expanded staffs and more generous library funds. Recent economies, which have necessitated staff reductions in many departments, have forced some curtailment of graduate work. Little that is new can be undertaken until serious deficienciesin staff can be remedied. That graduate work is not self-sustaining is a fact ail-too familiar to university administrators. The tuition collected from graduate students pays but a small portion of the costs of instruction. If graduate work is to be kept on a respectable plane, therefore,it must be subsidized. This can be done in various ways. First, a graduate school may be so richly endowed as to have no need to look elsewhere for funds.This is obviously not the case with us, nor, miracles excluded,is it likely to be "in the next half-century." Second,a large undergraduate student body may bring in enough tuition to meet the costs of both undergraduate and graduate instruction. Since 1945 this situation has for the most part prevailed at the University of Buffalo. The undergraduate enrollment is now declining, however, and prospects for the next few years are not cheering. Third, gifts from alumni and friends,if earmarked for GraduateSchool use or even if they go to general funds, are useful even in small amounts. Fourth, for special projects it is sometimes possible to secure grants from the foundations (such as the Ford Foundation, which is now much in the public eye). Suchgrants are most apt to result from the initiative of individual scholars or small associated groups, who can offer appealing projects in research or in experimental teaching. Fifth, industries of the area, which benefitfrom the research or the professional training afforded by the Graduate School, may come to feel that an investment,in the form of an annual contribution or otherwise,in graduate education will pay dividends. A full realization of the non-self-sustainingcharacter of graduate instruction would contribute to the growth of such an attitude on the part of industry. Finally, it should never be forgotten that our graduate work will be judgedby its quality, not its quantity. Large numbers of graduate students are desired only (1) if they are superior people capable of independent scholarship and (2) if our facilities in staff and equipment are adequate to provide them with training of the best kind. Our objective should be the cultivation in our graduate students of the qualities of creative imagination, initiative, resourcefulness,responsibility, and cultural breadth. To that end it is essential that our faculty themselves possess these qualities and that they be so far relieved of other duties as to permit them to call forth these qualities in their graduate students. �11 The Outlook For the School of Business Administration by Harold M. Somers Dean of the School of Business Administration In these days of constant crisis it may be presumptuous to plan very far ahead. Yet, failure to do long range planning results in either wasted motion or just plain drifting. We cannot afford to waste and we have no intention of drifting. No matter how uncertain, the future always holds the opportunity to grow, to correct, to improve and to explore. This makes ours a simpleproposition. We plan to achieve these four basic objectives. Furthermore,we are making our plans as definite as possible so that we may have real programs and actual schedules to follow. Only by such means can we determine our rate of progress.This does not mean we do not expect a change; in fact, the readiness to change must be the very essence of our strategy. We face many difficult problems, but with determination on the part of our faculty, our alumni and the business community, we will solve them. That we can count on the support of each of these groups is shown by the efforts and accomplishments of the past year. During 1951 the University expanded its relationships with the community in a number of ways. Through the Niagara Frontier Convocation,the organization of in-plant training programs for several of Buffalo'slargest industries,and the establishment of a Corporation Liaison Office, it brought its faculty and its facilities into close contact with a growing number of people in all walks of life. The School of Business Administration has taken an active part in these developments and will help spread the influenceof the University even further than it has extended in the past. Buffalo is noted not only as one of this country's largest industrial centers but as a center of baste industry. It has steel and chemical plants, automobile and aircraft plants. This is an advantage upon which your Schoolcan and must capitalize. There is a growing trend in industry to send potential and rising executives to university Schools of Business Administration for further trainingand development. Your School is strengthening its executive training program in terms of faculty and courses. It plans to expand its Industrial Relations and Quality Control Conferences into a series of full scale institutes. As dormitory facilities become available, these will be further enlarged into Management Training sessions of several weeks or months duration. Your School is in the center of one of the largest markets for such programs. The three-day conferenceit is planning in April should have a major impact on the business community. In both European and Asiatic countries there are many students and many business men who are eager to have a first hand knowledge of American production methods. At the present time several foreign governments, in cooperation with our government, are already taking definite steps to encourage study in this country. What better location could they select for such study than a University located in the heart of Buffalo. Your School is planning to work out a cooperative arrangement with industry so that these people can study theory under a superior faculty and observe industrial practices in the many shops and factoriesnearby. We are also going to increase the number of graduate courses in each of our several business fields, so that we can attract these graduate students in ever growing numbers. We hope to have an ever larger number of qualified candidates for the degrees of Master of Business Administration and Doctor of Philosophy. Those in commerce and industry have also come to realize that knowledge of human relations is as essential as it is elusive. Today, throughout the nation, the demand for such knowledge is becoming almost a stampede. We must try to meet this demand but we must not permit ourselves to yield to the temptation to cash in on "fad courses". In order to perform a truly educational service we research in the human relations area. We have already attracted faculty who have been interested in this area for many years and we must now provide the resources for them to continue their interest. The field of Statisticsis still relativelynew and its possibilities have been virtually untapped. With the development and expanded use of electronic computers, analysis of business variables will be possible in combinations that are now only a dream. At present these computers and electronic devices are being developed largely by the scientificschools and their application to business problems has hardlybeen started. Sometimeduring the next fifty years we plan to acquire such electronic devices so that our faculty can explore the vast unknown reaches of business statistics. Your Schoolhas an abundance of opportunities to grow, to correct, to improve and to explore. In order to take advantage of these opportunities we need dormitory facilities, visual aids and other teaching equipment, funds for the maintenance of a superior faculty and for research,and soon more adequate class room and officespace. Under the inspiring leadership that the University of Buffalo has had and will continue to have, the Schoolof Business Administration looks forward with confidenceto the next fifty years. must carry on �12 Dentistry Looks Forward To Campus Associations by Leon J. Gauchat Dean of the School of The Schoolof Dentistry was organized in 1892 as the fourth division of the University of Buffalo. Since its establishment approximately 2500 degrees have been conferred on its graduates. In the year 1896 the present Dental School building was erected and if everything proceeds according to the contractor's schedule the new MedicalDental building will be ready for occupancy in the fall of 1953. This will usher in a new chapter in the progressof our University. There is an old saying, "Clothes do not make the man." This is no doubt true; categorically speaking, it is also a fact that buildings do not make a University. Faculties whose teaching abilities are of the highest quality, whose vision, enthusiam,devotion and understanding are clearly apparent, are of Dentistry and the Dental School of our University was the pioneer in setting up this type of educational program for dentistry. This plan of dental education is not without its critics; however, as time moves forward some changes will no doubt be made. If any change is made cance there must be assurance that with any change in the program of education that a better trained graduate will go forth to practice dentistry. In 1929 the three-year, four-quarter plan was inaugurated in our Dental School and continued in operation until September 1947 when the present fouryear program of dental education was instituted. Since 1892 the Dental Schoolhas been under the guidance of the following Deans: paramount importance. 1892-1903 Dr. C. Barrett The program of education necessary 1903-1912 Dr. George B.

This new concept of undergraduate denThe entire structure is designed to place emphasis on functionality and flexibility, tal education was of far-reaching signifi- taking anticipated future developments into consideration. The facilities for patient clinics, conferencerooms, lecture rooms, clinical and technique laboratories are of the most advanced types. The building is planned and equipped to accommodate eighty students in each entering freshmenclass. There are provisions for postgraduate departments and research,for which proper facilities were lacking in the Goodrich Street building. Each department of instruction has been carefully planned and strategically located to improve student training. The school contains approximately 500,000 square feet of floor space devoted to actual teaching purposes, which is a great in- crease over the space available in the present school. The administrative offices are well located and two auditoriums with seating capacity for 250 persons and 560 persons respectively are part of the building and are very advantageous as they will probably also be available for scientificmeetings. The library with a capacity for from 110,000 to 120,000 books,together with an excellent reading room, several study rooms, periodical room, work room and stack room will serve both Medical and Dental schools. This will be of far reaching benefitto both students and alumni. Due to lack of space, a detailed description of all the teaching facilities cannot be gone into here, but you may be sure that the students who will attend our dental school will have facilities which the faculty and alumni have been looking forward to for quite a number of years. The future of dental education in the is difficult to predict, well nigh impossible. Postgraduate education and research are becoming more and more important as time moves on. They are vital now and will become even more so. The faculty of the School of Dentistry, ChancellorMcConnelland the Council of the University are well aware of this and advancement along these lines will be one of the University's chief objectives. next half century (Continued on Page 28) �13 School of Education's Programs To Be Expanded by Leslie Dean The expectation that a Dean should dream about the future of a professional school challenges one's imagination. But dreams and imagination are compounded of experience. A glance at the experience of the Schoolof Education is thereforein point. The University has a long and distinguished record of offering professional preparation for educational services dating from 1895. The tradition has been carried on by various divisions, the College of Arts and Sciences,the Evening Sessionand, beginning in 1931, by the Schoolof Education. When the Schoolwas established,there were various traditional patterns of organization of professional schools for teachers and administrators. The organization adopted struck a new note in the inauguration of a truly University division for professional preparation for teaching and administration. By closely relating its efforts to those of other divisions of the University, the new School had the advantage of the rich resources of the other older facultieswhile giving a professional direction needed by the developingfield of Education. We look forward to a strengthening of the areas of service of the Schoolby continuing close relations with the other divisions. With the Medical and Dental Schoolson the Campus, the opportunities for cooperation with these divisions for teaching and research in the fields of human growth and development are unlimited. The downward extension of school systems to include nursery education on a publicly supported basis will continue. The Schoolof Education anticipated this developmentwhen it established the Laboratory for the Study of Young Children and later its Laboratory courses in the care of young children. As more young women take advantage of a college education,there will be a need for reviewing the academic curriculum to includes courses in marriage and child development. The second half of the "Century of the Child" should reveal some of the more complex factors affecting the normal growth and developmentof young children O. Cummings of the School of Education and should offer suggested methods of guidance as well as scientifictechniques to deal with behavior patterns of children. Education for parenthood and family living, including sex education and preparation for marriage, will become more fully accepted as a natural part of all school and college education. On the campus, there will be many more opportunities than at present for students in all fields of study to understand the principles of human growth and learning, the importance of the early yearsof life and the functions of good parents and home life in a democratic society. The Niagara Frontier with its diversified industries is one of the greatest users of trained man power in the world. The vocational education on the secondaryschool level, and other area vocational schools, which begin the education of workers require professionally prepared teachers and administrators. These, the School of Education has been preparing in cooperation with the Buffalo office of the State Department of Education, Division of Vocational Education. As programs of Vocational Education develop in this great industrial area, the opportunity for continued pioneer efforts in vocational education are unlimited. We look forward to providing enriched opportunities in this vital area of Education. The coming yearswill undoubtedlysee considerable expansion of guidance services, with proportionate increases in numbers of students seeking professional preparation for careers in guidance. At present, many secondary schools have made a beginning in the development of guidance programs. It is anticipated that this trend will continue,resulting in the initiation of programs where none exist and expansion of programs already under way. Two very new and related trends are seen in the extension of guidance services in two directions from the secondary school in the one case to the elementary school and, in the other, to the out-ofschool population. The introduction of professional guidance services into elementary schools is based on the belief that successfuland satisfying living in adolescence and adulthood are a function of the nature and quality of childhood experiences. The extension of guidance services in the other direction—for those no longer in school—is a recognition of the continuity throughout life of vocational, educational,social, and personal development and life adjustment. Offering in 1932 beginning preparation for teaching in a one year concentrated program closely related to actual class room experiences in supervised student teaching—the ProfessionalUnit, in Education, anticipated recent developments in the preparation of teachers. The professional program for preparation in Health, Physical Education and Recreation which follows the same plan points the way to further improvement in this developing field. The preparation of promising young men and women for leadership posts in educational administration in programs combining preparation for teaching and administration is a next step indicated by our plan. It has in the past three yearsmade possible an emergencyprogram for the preparation of college graduates as elementary school teachers. With higher standards for teachers and administrators coupled with higher salaries the present pressure of candidates for the Masters' and Doctors' degrees will continue. Changes in Education are occurring making an emphasis upon Technical Institutes, Area Schoolsand Community Colleges in Western New York. The degree procedures of the Schoolare such as challenge the best material to go forward with advanced study for the high type of educational leadership the coming yearswill need. Space does not permit showing howeach of the various services in which the school is engaged may be expected to develop—teaching of the deaf in cooperation with St. Mary's Schoolfor the Deaf —teaching of Art with the Albright Art School—theprograms for leaders in Adult Education,for School Psychologists, for Attendance Workers. All of the elements in a future school cannot be forecastbecause new days call for new ways. What can confidently be expected is the addition of services to meet new needs. Continuing flexibility (Continued on Page 28) �14 Engineering Dean's Speech June 5, 2001 — by Paul E. Mohn Dean of the School of Engineering Excerpts from an address by the Dean of the School of Engineering. June 5, 2001, delivered at the Fiftieth Anniversary meeting of the class of '51. Classof '51, Alumni and friends! You are gathered to celebrate a half century of service to the engineering profession on the part of the class of '51. You will recall student days during the construction of the EngineeringBuilding expected to see the signs of growth on the Campus, which accompanied the growth experienced by the University of Buffalo during the last half of the Twentieth Century. You have not been wrong. There have been changes As I skim over some of the developments of the past fifty years,some of you will not agree with my choice of the highlights. You, as loyal alumni, will feel that 1 am omitting others equally important. You have the right to defend your own choices at every possible occasion. Our meeting place is an example. The Technology" Club was erected with the splendid enthusiasm of all of the engineering and scientificsocieties of the area as a memorial to members who gave their lives in the service of their country. It justly chose the Schoolof Engineering as the proper center of the orbit of engineering and scientific activities of the area. This building serves as a suitable place for society meetings, seminars and institutes. It contains the secretarial offices of the member societies,has facilities for all printing, broadcasting and telenews notices to members. It contains recreation and reading rooms, as well as accommodations for permanent and transient guests of the engineers, scientists and industries of the area. It also houses the School of Engineering library. The library, begun in your student days with the aid of member societies,has grown and kept pace with the expanding needs of our industrial community. This technical library now has adequate, functional and expandable space, and is equipped with audible readers,visual projectors, and every modern facility to render maximum service to the technical community. It is truly the center of technological activities of Western New York. .. In reviewing the developments of the half century, I have concluded that the Fund Drive of 1952, shortly after your graduation, set a pattern which had its impact on several aspects of the development of your School whatever the origin, the present method of financing the Schooland the University has evolved. Let me review the method for you. In your undergraduate days the major income of the University depended on student tuition fees. The Engineering School always operated at a deficit. No student could claim to have paid his own way. You Alumni have done much to correct that situation by your own activities. The Alumni Loyalty Fund, begun more than 60 years ago, has evolved into a real source of operating income for the University. The alumni of the School, more than 7000 now, have swelled their annual contributions as their realization of the value of their own University education increased. With a growing feeling of the necessity to insist on continuing the usefulnessof their Schoolfor others, Engineering Alumni have steadily increased their annual giving. During the past 5 years the averageof the contributions of living alumni has exceeded 1% of their annual grossincome,and 98.05% of the alumni of the School have contributed annually to the Alumni Loyalty Fund in a direct measure to their professional income. You, the Alumni, determine the proportion of the Loyalty Fund which is devoted to scholarships; the remainder is contributed toward annual operating expenses. Similarly the old fashioneddependence on endowment income has long proved inadequate to provide adequate annual operating funds. The industrial-incomecontribution has become the pattern for the University. Each Niagara Frontier Industry contributes annually a fraction of a percent of its gross profits to insure the continued benefits of the educated personnel on which it so largely depends. A committee consisting of the United Industries Council, the Citizens Advisory Boards of each Division of the University and the Treasurer,determine the amount of the contribution each year. The School of Engineering, and each division of the University, participate in just measure as they all unite to serve the community. At the time of your graduation the School of Engineering had just barely embarked on a research program and its program of graduate instruction. It was a period of the beginning of the intense preparation for the world struggle with communism,which, we are all very happy to say, has been brought to a successful conclusion. The decade, 1950 to 1960,a period of intensive defensepreparation, resulted in a more widespread understanding by the Industry of the Niagara Frontier of the mutual advantages which could be gained by creating closer ties with the University. As a result of this stimulus, the research activities of the University, and especially of the School of Engineering, grew rapidly. As a normal part of its growth, the School expanded its field of activities into Civil Engineering, ChemicalEngineering, Metallurgy, etc. Each of these fields contributed to the expanding instruction and research activities of the School.The principle was gradually evolved that each faculty member spend a designated portion of his time doing research work; additional staff members who devoted their time exclusively to research work were secured. Now, all senior faculty members hold endowed chairs, established by interested industries or industry groups. The expanded research and graduate instruction of the University is centralized and unified in the GraduateSchool. The group of buildings built by the Niagara Frontier Industries Research Foundation was provided specifically to contain research laboratories. They are part of the GraduateSchool domain. You have had a chance today to visit these magnificent structures and see the wide variety of activities carried on. You have seen each room on your television screen as you met at your class reunion in the Synthetic Industries Conferenceroom. Research activities in the field of engineering long ago outgrew the limited space of the original Engineering Building. Besides,research is now a matter of common interest on the part of all the departments of the University through the Graduate School and inter-departmental action is the rule rather than the exception. I cite some examples Engineers and Medical men work to(Continued on Page 32) ... �15 Law School's Plans Are Extensive by George N. Stevens Dean of the Schoolof Law In line with ChancellorMcConnell's position that the University of Buffalo has pledged itself to meet the broad educational needs of the community, the Schoolof Law plans to widen its services in the fieldof legal education. A. The Full Time Program We do not anticipate any increase in the size of the day school student body during the next half century. It is our hope that we will continue with a constant enrollment of between 290 and 325. Any increase in this number would, because of the size of our classrooms, require sectionalization. Sectionalization means increased faculty loads and requires more full time or part time instructors. At present, the Law Schoolhas a staff of fourteen part time instructors and eight resident teachers,one of whom is on military leave, and two of whom are on limited time schedules. In the near future, the resident staff should be increased to nine. The use of part time teachers will continue. The curriculum will be under constant study. Courseswill be added as need dictates and time permits. The pressure to add new courses in developing fields of law is great. The necessity for careful training in the basic courses and in the basic skills and insights of the lawyer is fundamental.We can demand only a limited amount of time of those preparing for practice. Our problem arises out of these pressures and these limitations. Some schools are requiring three years and a summer session;others are increasing the number of hours required for graduation from the minimum of 72 to 76, 80, and up. We feel that three years is enough to ask for a first degree in law, but we agree with those who require those years to be full. We have set our graduation requirement at 84 hours, an average of 14 hours per semester. Many lawyers say that law school training is impractical too much theory. What these lawyers really mean is that many law schools have failed to give their students training in the art or skill of translating theory into practice. This defect should be, and is being, corrected. Training in memorandum and brief writing, once limited to Law Review men, is now given to all students. Training in advocacy through various types of Moot Courts is needed and experimentation in — such courses is opening much more realistic possibilities. The need for training in legal drafting is fully recognized, and instruction in this skill is included, either in connection with individual courses, or as a separate course, in most progressive Jaw school curricula. While these, and other plans, will not, and should not, replace the apprentice system, they will help in the transition from study to practice. Clinical training for law students is being included in our curriculum through the Indigent Prisoner program, in which, with the fine cooperation of the Erie County Bar Association and the Justices of our Supreme Court, students are assigned to work with lawyers appointed to defendindigent persons accused of crime. The opportunity for further clinical training for full time students in civil cases must be explored. Many schools have working arrangements with the local Legal Aid Clinic. The possibility of using law student assistance in a Bar Sponsored Referral Plan should be seriously considered. With these plans in mind, we share with you the hope that your full time law school will continue to turn out well prepared young lawyers. B. A Part Time Program of Legal Education The time is rapidly approaching when this law school,jf it is to serve the best interests of this community, must seriously consider launching a part time program of legal education. The pressure is primarily economic. The costs of prelegal education have been increasing rapidly and will in all probability continue to rise. Studentspresently in school are finding it increasingly difficult to make ends meet. More and more of them are taking on part time jobs. And yet, starting in September 1952, applicants will have to present three years of prelegal education for admission to law school,instead of the present two years. The full time student is crushed between rising costs, requiring him to find part time employment, and increasing demands on his time in law school, brought about by the growth of the law. Two solutions are possible. One is a greatly increased scholarship program, providing not only for tuition but also for subsistence. The other is a part time programof legal education. Part time legal education has long been looked down upon, and all too frequently with good reason. However, several law schools have shown that a first rate legal education can be given in a part time program. We havein mind at present a part time daytime law school, not an evening division. The part time students would take the same courses in the same classes with the same instructors as the full time students. The only differencewould be that the semester loads of the part time students would be substantiallyreduced and their work would be extended over a longer period of time. The program will not be easy to set up, but it may be the only practical solution to a serious economic problem. C. Continuing Legal Education In the three years devoted to a full time legal education it is impossible today for any law student to work in more than a few of the many fields of law. There is a tendency, and a danger, to spread legal education too thin in an effort to cover both the old and the new in the law. I feel that it is sounder policy to concentrate on the fundamentalcourses, both old and new, and leave to post graduate education the training in the rest. Situatedas we are in a great metropolitan center, the need for such training is great. Consequently, we have an equally great opportunity to provide it. The Law School should develop both continuing legal education training and graduate law work leading to Master of Laws degree. Specialized courses and programs in such fields as Taxation, Estate Planning, Corporate Finance and Trade Regulation, practical courses in Federal Jurisdiction, Creditor's Rights, Bankruptcy, Admiralty and Patents would be welcomed by practitioners, not only graduates of our law school, but of all law schools. In addition to regular course work, the Law School plans to run conferences from time to time on special problems of peculiar interest to the legal profession, as well as to continue the annual conferenceon legal problems of local government, inaugurated this year. D.

This new building opens the way for a new era in medical education in Buffalo. The present medical school buiding was constructed sixty yearsago. During this period of over half a century, startling advances in medical education and medical knowledge have been made. Medical education has expanded from a two-year didactic course to a four-year course following four years of college education and followed by one year of internship and often three to five years of further residency training. To a great extent in the medical course today lectures have been replaced by laboratory work and by ward and outpatient clinical clerkships. Organization and conduct of this far more individual type of instruction has lead to development of full time clinical as well as basic science,or "preclinical", departments. Voluntary and part time teachers provide the major portion of the teaching personnel and background of experience, especially in the clinical departments. The fundamentalresearch from which advances in medical knowledge have stemmed is conducted predominantly by the full time facultiesboth of the basic science and clinical departments. The curriculum is always under study and, at Buffalo, is altered yearly, sometimes radically. Integration of basic science and clinical knowledge is a rcsponsibility of, and a challenge to, all the medical faculties, especially to those full time men who have had both research and clinical training and experience. Medical education today, in Buffalo, as elsewhere,is a partnership between university and hospitals, between full time and voluntary faculties,between basic science and clinical departments, between regular faculty and hospital residents and internes, and, more and more, between faculty and students. In its best developments it is teamwork education. undergraduate courses in chemistry and other college subjects. Beginning, therefore, as an addendum to the Medical School,the College of Arts and Sciences now located on the University Campus, has become the focal point of the University. After the opening of the new Medical, Dental building, most of the departments and schools of the University will be located on the Campus. The facilities for development in medical education at the University of Buffalo have been greater in the affiliated teaching hospitals than in the Medical School building. The Medical School at Buffalo is greatly strengthened by its close affiliation with several teaching hospitals —private and public—which have shared in the support of faculty members and made available for instruction of medical students a greater number and variety of patients than is available to many Medical Schools in this country'. The newMedical Building will provide laboratories and libraries for teaching and research which will be up to date and capable of adjustment to meet the demands of the future. It will permit an increased enrollment. It will provide a workshop for present and new teachers,new research,new experiments in education. over During the past half century the changes in the University of Buffalo as a whole have been no less startling than those in medicine. The need to introduce a year of premedical college education lead to the construction forty yearsago of an addition to the Medical School building utilizing funds raised for this purpose by the faculty of the Medical School.Here Dr. Sy and others conducted This new location will give opportunity the next half century for new developments in medical education aimed at a broader concept of the education of a physician. The future holds a challenge to medical education. Despite the progress of the past fifty years, medical education in this country is today undergoingas frank and critical a study as that made by Flexner in 1910. It might be said that medical education today is a prisoner of its own success. The rate of medical discovery is so great and the accumulation of new and specialized knowledge so vast that there is an overall tendency to try to push too much in too concentrated form into a student without, in the process, giving him opportunity to assimilate and to develop intellectual and emotional maturity. Nationally today there is a clearly felt to try to secure greater continuity of experience in the medical curriculum with more interrelationship between and need — within basic science and clinical teaching, more instruction in the emotional and functional aspects of disease,more understanding of the reaction of the patient as a person. Such problems are now under specific �17 study and experiment here. It is anticipated that in the new school there will be closer opportunity for experiments in education between the Medical .School, the hospitals and other departments of the University with the aim of reducing further the separation in presentation between individual departments and specialties, between basic science and clinical years, between college and medical school years. The aim is to strive toward more continuity from college through hospital residency and more opportunity for breadth and depth of educational experience—more benefitof the Medical School to the University and of the University to the Medical School. In the past twenty years the Medical School has dropped much of the emphasis on the practical aspects of medical practice—postponing these to hospital interneship and residency years. The Medical School has concentrated on teaching principles and basic knowledge. The science of medicine is expanding so rapidly that much that is true today is out of date tomorrow. Facts change. If a student is well grounded in principles and a method of study and inquiry, he will be prepared critically to discard the obsolete and adapt to newly developing concepts. The broader his understanding of people and of our society, the better prepared he should be to treat people who become ill physically or psychically in the course of their struggle to survive and to achieve in this society. The challenge to medical education in a University setting is to so interrelate with the facilities of the University as a whole that the graduates of the University Medical Schoolwill be broadly educated as well as well trained in the skills of their profession. It is to be hoped that the Medical Schoollikewise can be of assistance educationally to University departments. It is the belief also that mutually advantageous research will be developed and that elective opportunities will increase in the Medical School departments for college students and in the other University departments for medical students. Thereby, in addition to obtaining a common body of knowledge, students will have the chance to develop their individual capacities and abilities. A. M. A. TO CREDIT MEDICAL ALUMNI GIFTS TO UNIVERSITY The American Medical Association's Education Foundation,now in its second year, seeks to raise funds from its physician members to help underwrite part of the costs of operating the nation's medical schools. The Association paysthe expenses of the Foundation so that all money raised can be passed on to the schools. Outstanding evidence of the sincerity of the Foundation is its recent policy announcement which directly affectsalumni of the University of Buffalo's Medical School. To eliminate possible competition with the annual Loyalty Funds and fund-raising campaigns of universities and medical schools,the Foundation's directors have recently declared that their annual report will give recognition and credit to those physicians whom the medical schools report to the Foundation as having supported medical education by making a gift directly to a medical school. William J. Orr, MD'2O, chairman of the University's Alumni Loyalty Fund, and StocktonKimball, BD'29, dean of the Medical School, promptly made a joint announcement that the Alumni Loyalty Fund and the University's Medical School would report annually the contributions of medical alumni to the Fund. OwenB. Augspurger, LLB'37, chairman of the University's forthcoming Development Campaign (see page 33), also announced that medical alumni gifts in that campaign would be similarly credited and reported to the American Medical Association Education Foundation. The activities of the Foundation have helped the universities and medical schools in their efforts to interest the general public in the necessity of underwriting the high costs of medical education. Last the contributions to the Foundation and were alloted to the nation's medical schools as grants. year, were nearly $750,000 Just as important, the Foundation seeks to make their own physician members more conscious of their obligation to medical education. Commenting in the January issue of the Journal of the American Medical Association, the editors state: "There is much evidence that the activities of the Foundation are developing a greater awareness and interest in the needs of the medical schools on the part of physicians generally. Many physicians are indicating by their contributions their recognition of the debt they owe their medical schools, while many others see in the Foundation an opportunity for the medical profession to again demonstrate its willingness to aid in the advancement of high standards of medical education." �THE IMMEDIATE FUTURE.

The m �1"" I �20 Nursing Will Strengthen Basic and Graduate Curricula by Anne W. Sengbusch Dean of the Schoolof Nursing The mid-century affords a convenient opportunity for "stock-taking" for assessing the accomplishments of the past and anticipating future developments. Such an evaluation on any adequate scale is not, of course, possible within the limitations of the present assignment. An attempt may be made to review major developments of the past few years and to indicate some of the dominant trends which seem to point up the future. In any consideration of the developments in nursing education which we may anticipate as occurring within the next half century it is necessary to look at the present status of the profession for clues which indicate direction. The present and probable demands of the practice field and the changing character of responsibilities nurses are called upon to meet, have a direct relationship to the kind of educational system and the curriculum content and methodology we expect to find in the future. It is in the steady influenceof the changing demands of the practice field on curriculum which gives us our best indications of future direction. It might be said that the profession of nursing is currently undergoing so critical a voluntary self-examinationin both its service and educational aspects as to warrant a belief that this decade may well mark the beginning of a new period in nursing history. A survey of nursing at this time reveals the variety of points of view, proposals for courses of action and recommendations for curriculum change which we have come to associate with periods of transition in the profession. There is evidence that solid progress has been made in the past decade toward greater maturity. The ferment in the field and the willingness of the group to evaluate,through its professional organizations, its educational purposes and programs; to assume responsibility for supplying in amount and kind, the nursing services necessary to the national welfare; to devise methods of evaluating the quality of nursing service programs and to face with realism, a changing practice pattern indicate an increased awareness of social responsi- bility. A change in the practice pattern in nursing service organization has evolved in recent years and shows promise, under experimentation, of better meeting existing needs for the improvement of service programs. Facing the fact of critical shortages at a time when numerically more nurses were available than ever before in our history, a reevaluation of nursing function was undertaken in the interests of the best possible use of available supply. Studiesof nursing function point up a range of competencies necessary to the organization of nursing services ranging from relatively simple to those of complexity requiring a high degree of technical ability, value judgments and skill in human relationships. A proposal for the use of the nursing team was advanced as one approach to a better use of available supply. This concept is based on team membership of professional nurses and auxiliary personnel working cooperatively in meeting the needs of the situation, each contributing to the total in terms of their preparation and level of competency. The role of the professional nurse is seen to involve responsibility for team leadership, for the planning, supervision and evaluation of the nursing care program, for the development of the team members through in-service educational programs, for the performance of functions involving high technical skill and judgment and for the human relationships aspects of the total program of nursing care. The implications for nursing education in the proposed pattern for practice are obvious. The School of Nursing has felt the impact of this dynamic period. The changing goals and pattern in nursing services and the newly created needs,a.s reflected by demands for increasingly competent practitioners, have been relected in the curriculum offerings of the School at various levels of preparation. The several major revisions in the curriculum in the past few years are evidence of the extent of changes in nursing practice. At the time the Schoolwas established in 1940 the need as determined by the Faculty, was for a program designed for graduates of the hospital-school, through which educational experiences could be made available in a limited number of special fields. The fields as then identified included supervision of hospital nur.ing and administration in nursing service and nursing education. Some ten years later, it is recognized that the above program meets only a partial need in the field. Programs of study have since been added to provide, for the graduates of hospital-schools, a combined program in general education and in nursing which is considered to be the equivalent of the foundation for nursing practice given by the collegiate school. This program is now available in most schools admitting graduate nurses in New York Stateand in a few out-of-state schools. The basic philosophy underlying this development holds that specialization is properly the responsibility of the graduate field and that a broader base in general education should be the objective of the foundation preparation for nursing practice. The development of a graduate program was authorized in response to increasing demands for additional preparation for the nursing specialties and for the responsibilities of positions involving teaching, supervisory or administrative functionsin nursing service and in public health nursing. This program is now administered in cooperation with the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences. In 1950 the four year collegiate nursing program for students entering the field was established and is being developed in cooperation with selected hospitals and public health agencies in the community. Unlike many collegiate schools which utilize the resources of one instition for all clinical experiences, the Faculty recommended the use of several cooperating agencies, with the placement of university students in selected units of each institution in terms of the most adequate learning experiences available for student growth. This program,which combines general professional education, includes several unique experiences as �21 as a result of the unusual clinical facilities in this community. It may be noted that the four major programs authorized by the Faculty, closely parallel significant needs and developments in the practice field and represent various stages in transition from one practice pattern and system of education to another. The dominant trends of the present day justify the following assumptions relating to the future: That the future pattern in nursing practice will be based on more group work, utilizing personnel at various levels of competence, to provide the range of abilities from simple to complex which are necessary in nursing service organizations. That an expansion may be anticipated in community health programs with large numbers of nurses participating in programsof prevention of disease and promotion of health as well as in programsrelated to the care of the sick. That a greater emphasis will be placed on the social, psychological and emotional aspects of the care of the sick as a major component of comprehensive nursing care. This is generally accepted at the intellectual level at the present time if not always implemented in actual practice. That an increasingly large number of professional nurses will need assistance in the development of leadership and administrative skill for effective group work. That the already heavy demands for services of nurses prepared at the graduate level show every indication of increasing as additional responsibilities make necessaryadvanced preparation for the special fields. That the encouragement given by the profession to the development of basic education in nursing within colleges and universities will result in increased numbers of nurses securing their foundation for nursing practice in these schools. Efforts of the past in this direction are being already realized as seen through the growing numbers of collegiate schools. Although this trend is solidly established and generally accepted as desirable,it must be recognized that for many years to come the largest number of nursing students will be prepared through the hospital school. That efforts will continue to secure financial support for nursing education from both private and public sources with a view to assisting able candidates who wish to enter the field. An expanded scholarship program for both hospital and collegiate school has long been recognized as a real need in nursing education. It is probable that the most significant educational gains in the immediate future may be expected in the growth and development of sound basic schools of nursing within colleges and universities and in the expansion of graduate programs preparing nurses for the more responsible positions in the field. The need for the existent program providing for specialization at the under-graduate level is likely to decrease at some point in the future when it can be expected that the product of the collegiate program will look to the graduate school for specialized study. While it may be some years before these two major types of preparations for nurses become the dominant pattern it is fair to say there is already a solid trend in this direction and seemingly steady progressto the goal. From the standpoint of curriculum content we are likely to see a strengthening of those learning experiences designed to assist students in developing knowledge and skill in the areas of interpersonal relationships, in the psychological and emotional aspects of illness, in the higher technical competencies and in problems relating to the planning and evaluation of nursing service programs. A further development of the field practice component of the nursing curriculum may be anticipated at all levels of preparation. The availability of carefully planned observation in actual situations in the ongoing programs of health agencies and the relating of these to the theoretical base of the educational program has always been an acknowledged strength in the education of nurses. The better organization and use of such field practice periods in the building of sound student experience has real significance for the future. The close association of the Faculty of this School with staff members of hospitals and public health agencies in the community provides an extraordinarily rich opportunity to relate the University program to the needs of the field in the interest of a realistic approach to curriculum building. Already much has been accomplished through this relationship which permits those responsible for the planning of educational programs to keep in close touch with problems and trends as they develop in the field. It is expected that the selection and organization of learning experiences in the basic program will provide opportunities for some curriculum experimentation with departure from the traditional plan in nursing education. The wide clinical resources available in the community together with the special facilities of the University provide endless opportunities for enrichment of the curriculum. The need for an increased emphasis in the nursing curriculum on the development of the student as an individual and a citizen has long been recognized. It is acknowledged that the excellence of professional service rendered is directly dependent upon the quality of the individual responsible for that service. From the standpoint of both the individual and the future practitioner this aspect of the curriculum is much in need of strengthening. The development of the collegiate program has this goal as one of its primary aims. The influenceon the nursing curriculum of the civil defenseprogram is already resulting in the inclusion of additional technical content and in a new emphasis in the science area. The clinical courses are being redesigned to include the nursing aspects of mass disaster and the methods of dealing with community problems resulting therefrom. Best current information supports a belief this influencewill continue in the forseeable future and that the foundation program of the nurse will include preparation for participation in such situations. The preparation of the nurse for her role in rehabilitation programs may also be anticipated. While primarily limited to the health aspects of rehabilitation, it is recognized that as a member of the health team she has much to contribute which is significant to the total plan. The advantages of developing within one institution both basic and advanced programs in nursing are many. It is hoped that in the near future a plan for securing practice teaching for students in the advanced program may develop in relation to the basic student experience so that each program will be enriched by the existence of the other. The planning and development of opportunities for field experiences in the University program for its graduate student qualifying for Teaching, Supervision or Administration presents challenging possibilities and the members of the Faculty are eager to reach the point when such an experimental unit may be instituted. The tendency to replace isolated short term courses with broader scope units of study is being felt in nursing as in other fields of education. A greater flexibility in the selection and organization of learning experiences is being recognized in contrast to the traditional-bound "specific requirements as spelled out in hours and subject areas" in the curriculum of the past. In short, the concept of an experimental curriculum, sufficiently flexible in its fixed requirements to meet the changing needs of the day and more adaptable to the needs and interests of individual students. There is some evidence that attempts will be made to build an adequate curriculum requiring a shorter period of preparation than the three to five years now required to qualify for professional nursing. There is apparently growing recognition of the need to bring within closer range, the various patterns of nursing education so far as time required for completion is concerned. On the basis that a sound professional programis highly sensitive to the responsibilities demanded in the practice field there is little danger of a static curriculum in nursing. It appears, however,that the practice pattern of the future is taking shape and that with the team ap- proach to nursing personnel organization, the responsibility of the professional nurse is becoming more clearly defined. The challenge to the nurse educator lies in the need to gear the educational program to include learning experiences which will aid students in developing the skills and knowledge essential to their effectivefunctioning as members of the health team. �22 Pharmacy to Stress Professional and Cultural Training by A.

Professor Faculty and the Alumni are profoundly grateful to all those who, through their Oscar Oldberg of the Illinois College of unselfish devotion to the School have made this record possible. A fine foundation has been laid but the structure is not complete. It is not likely to be, since its designs are being altered constantly. I The progress of the last half century, together with the findings of two functional studies of what a pharmacist does and what he needs to know to do what he does,have demonstrated that Pharmacy is a profession. In consideration of the full round of responsibilities of the pharmacist and the amount, depth and scope of the training, which is needed to fit him adequately to fulfill his obligations, the categorical conclusion that Pharmacy is a profession and not a trade appears completely justified. This professional consciousness must be zealously guarded. In the effort to commercialize this dual occupation, the professional morale must not be lost. The future of the profession will depend largely upon the degree to which the Schoolof Pharmacy can inspire its students and Alumni with their professional opportunities and responsibilities. The School must meet with resolution the ever present challenge that pharmaceutical education is becoming too theoretical. A half century of development has brought into sharp relief the major objectives of pharmaceuticaleducation. It is around these broad objectives that we should project the programme of our School of Pharmacy for the next half century. The School acknowledges as its first objective the training of pharmacists to take their place amongother professions serving the public health. Strengthening this .spect of our training programme should then become our first responsibility. As a full consciousness of this responsibility becomes a part of the thinking of all concerned, we may hope to see the Schoolof Pharmacy and its Alumni taking a more active part in the health problems of the community. We must strive for more complete understanding and cooperation between the health professions.In making plans for the future training and housing of students entering the health professions, we should insist that students in Pharmacy be given the consideration that their profession merits. Precisely, we shall expect to see a wing �23 added to the Medical Services Center which will house the Schoolof Pharmacy and a modern dispensary for serving the health needs of campus students. From the findings and functional studies of the CommonwealthFoundation and the American Foundation for Phamaceutical Education,and years of diligent study and revision of the undergraduate pharmacy curricula, a quite satisfactory professionalor applied programme of study for admission to the practice of retail pharmacy has now been devised. Except for adjustments necessitated by the ever changing list of drugs, the general pattern of our curriculum will no doubt maintain for many years. But, however adequate may be the training in the applied sciences of our technical schools, and they include Pharmacy, we are beginning to sense that the graduates of these Schoolsare lacking something that is absolutely essential to the welfare of our democratic society. Arthur T. Vanderbilt, Dean of New York University School of Law, recently said, "After twenty-seven years of active participation in politics, I venture to express the conviction that one of the major causes of the sickness of our society is the aversion of its natural leaders,amongwhom I include our professional men, to perform their obvious duties as citizens". In a world split in two, we on one side of a life or death ideological conflict, it is essential that at least college graduates should know what we stand for, how we secured it and how we are going to preserve it. The late Robert E. Doherty, while President of Carnegie Institute, viewed it this way—"A democracy which must look forward to meeting the challenge of strong conflicting ideologies will need a new breed of professional men—men who not only can perform effectively the technical part of their work, but who can also make intelligent decisions in the human-social realm and know why and on what basis they made them". The graduates of our Schools of Pharmacy must be taught how to analyze the issues at the polls as studiously as they compound a prescription or analyze its contents. The conclusion that professional students should be exposed to more liberal arts courses and to a more humanistic spirit in teaching our technical courses is patent. The next objective of our School for the years to come then, is a demand for more general and cultural training before taking on the technical curriculum. This movement has already started in a good percentage of our Schoolsof Pharmacy where one, two, or three years of liberal arts training is required beforeadmission to the professional curriculum. Before the next half century of our history is very far advanced, we may expect to have some such requirement at our Schoolof Pharmacy. About ninety percent of the graduates of our Schoolsof Pharmacy currently go into the retail field. In the yearsto come that percentage will be reduced by the demands of pharmaceutical manufacturers. The budget for research and sales promotion of the pharmaceutical manufacturing industry is overwhelming. It exceeds by far that of any other industry. During the development of this vast industry it became necessary to engagekey men for the research and development programme who were trained outside the colleges of Pharmacy. At the present time only seventeen of the accredited 72 colleges of Pharmacy are training men who can fully qualify for the many jobs that await them in industrial research incidental to the development of new drugs. Pharmaceutical industries are not the only institutions calling for pharmacists with graduate training. Most of the colleges charged with the training of pharmacists are desperately in need of more and better qualified teachers. Graduates with special training in Hospital Pharmacy are and will continue to be in demand. Graduatetraining is very expensive and it may easily be understood why so few schools of Pharmacy have established graduate training programmes.However, it may be anticipated that increasing funds will be made available and that the research and graduate training programme in our Schoolwill be greatly expanded within the next decade. In a number of States,Alumni of the schools of Pharmacy have been instrumental in the development of a Research Foundation, the income from which is used to aid this most expensive branch of training. The inspiration to all those connected with a going graduate programme makes this an important objective in our programme for the future. To make any specific predictions as to where the current fantastic programme in the quest of new drugs will take us is hardly within the limitations of this article. During the past half century numerous epochal contributions to our medical armamentorium have been made by pharmacists. That they will continue to add to the valuable products of research is a certainty. The impetus given to research in the field of Chemotherapeutic agents by the discoveries of the last fifteen yearshas not been matched by any era of the past. With so many of man's ills still to be conquered, it may safely be predicted that the next half century will find the pharmaceutical chemists, the pharmacologists and the physicians pressing their research activities with feverishdevotion. When the degenerative diseases are thwarted,the virus diseases and cancer under control, we shall take pride in the part that those trained in our Schoolof Pharmacy played in the research leading to the subjugation of these and other menaces to our lon- gevity. training, however extensive Professional it maybe at the undergraduate level, can never be more than a preparation for what is to be learned after commencement. Busy practitioners find it impossible to keep abreast of the increasing knowledge that must be theirs. To assist them to progresswith the times, the facilities of the University should always be available. While the services of the Schoolof Pharmacy to its Alumni have not been neglected, the years to come should see increased activity in this field. This Schoolshould accept as one of its responsibilities to the profession within the area normally served by the University, the development of an operational unit to be known as the Division of Pharmaceutical Extension. Under competent, professional direction this unit would develop periodic refreshercourses, programs of reading, correspondence study courses, and systematic visitations and personal counseling on problems peculiar to pharmaceutical practice. Before the next half century is far advanced,we may expect to see on our campus special quarters for Alumni and friends who return for reunions,clinics and conferences of sorts. In summary: The record of our School for the last half century is one of which we are all proud. Increased opportunities will make the record of the next half century even greater. The progress of our School,as in the past, will be largely in the hands of its faculty. Given a welltrained faculty with stimulating personalities, unquenchable intellectual curiosity, unselfish devotion to a common cause and wise, understanding and aggressive leadership, our Schoolof Pharmacy cannot fail to be among the leaders in the years to come. Imaginative thinking will add to the objectives listed above. This facuhy must keep the University's Administration informed as to the resources and facilities needed to make its projected programmea reality. The sympathetic interest and cooperation of the Alumni which has been so vital a part in our development to this point must be continued and strengthened. �24 Social Work To Serve Wide Region by Niles Carpenter Dean of the Schoolof Social Work The School of Social Work was not founded by anybody. One is tempted to say that like Topsy "it just growed". It would be more accurate to say that the Schoolof Social Work just had to be. When I came to Buffalo from Harvard University in 1924,I was under the impression that we were to have, a strictly academic department of Sociology. However within a matter of days after my arrival, the process of re-education immediately began. It was made very plain by representatives of the Social Work professionthat we were expected to organize instruction in Social Work just as soon as this was practicable. This obligation became increasingly manifest with the passing months. At that time there were in the entire United States,only twenty recognized schools of Social Work, as compared with fifty today. In this part of the country, there were two schools in New York City, one in Boston,and one in Cleveland. Most of the staff members of Buffalo Social Agencies, as well as those of agencies in other parts of Western and Central New York, had received whatever training they had through an apprenticeship program. This type of training-on-the-job had served its purpose very well in past decades. However it was realized throughout the United Statesthat the time was now approaching when formal professional education,integrated around a core of courses related with supervised field work, would have to be depended upon to give Social Work the kind of competence and leadership that it was being called upon to assume. For the first two years, we had all that we could do in building up a department of Sociology on the Campus. However, in the Fall of 1926 we began very modestly by offering one course in Social Caseworkthrough Millard Fillmore College (at that time the Evening Session). Our first instructor was Mrs. Anna B. Fox, who was at that time a member of the staff of the old Charity Organization Society, now the Family ServiceSociety. Our first students were almost entirely drawn from the staffs of our Social Agencies, and, in fact, such outstanding executives as the Honorable Cecil Wiener honored us by becoming early enrollees. Within three years after the beginning of our program in the University of Buffalo, two national events forcedthe rapid, and indeed the almost over-night expansion and development of Social Work education. The first was an event that made a very minor ripple upon the public consciousness. The second was a catastrophic irruption into the life of the nation. The first of these events was the establishment, in 1927, of formal admission and membership requirements by the American Association of Schoolsof Social Work. This step meant that there was national body interested in the development and recognition of sound programs for professional education throughout the United Statesand Canada. The second event was the Great Depression of 1929 and the early 1930'5. There was an immediate and urgent demand for men and women with professional training, to staff the newly organized, or reorganized, agencies for relief and rehabilitation that were springing up in Buffalo and nearby communities. A concurrent development was the redirection of activities of the various voluntary agencies, by which they gave up most of their relief-giving activities, and concentrated on the offering of expert services to individuals and groups in need of help around individual, family, or neighborhood problems. These expert services,of now a course, needed skilled and trained persons to operate them. Therefore we at the University of Buffalo were confronted with a double obligation. On the one hand we had to help to produce, in large numbers and at a rapid rate, persons who could occupypositions in the great reliefgiving agencies. To meet this responsi- bility the University accepted nearly 100 welfare workers from up-state New York, selected by the State and financed out of public funds. At times,we had as many as 40 such students in training at one time. On the other hand we had to select and train highly skilled people to handle expert special services in the voluntary casework and group work agencies. As a matter of fact this double-barrelled responsibility has been faced by the University of Buffalo from that day to this. The response of the University of Buffalo to this new situation was rapid and rather dramatic. In 1931 a "curriculum of Social Work" was set up within the College of Arts & Sciences.Its work was, however, carried out through Millard Fillmore College in the downtown area. This is still the case. At the same time overtures were made to the American Association of Schoolsof Social Work for assistance in developing a program that would qualify the University of Buffalo for membership in that Association. As a result, the University of Buffalo's program in Social Work was accepted for consideration in 1932, and was given final approval in 1934. We have been a full-standing member of this accrediting body ever since. Our first "graduating class" consisted of two young women who received the Certificatesof Social Work in 1933, and who were almost immediately caught up in the Emergency Relief Program of this community. Sincethat time the University has graduated about 700 Social Workers of whom about 450 hold the GraduateCertificatein Social Work, representing the one year program, and about 200 the two year Degree of Master of Social Service. Our alumni have worked in almost every state of the Union and in many foreign countries. They went with the Armed Servicesin Europe, Australia,Iceland,North Africa, and the Far East. One of them was caught behind the Iron Curtain when he was carrying on his duties of aiding refugees and displaced persons, and was briefly detained and "interrogated". The executive heads of about 20 SocialAgencies in Buffalo, Rochester,Syracuse, San Diego, New York City, and other places are graduates of this school. We have furnishedfaculty members to three schools of Social Work, one of them the largest in the United States. Our students and �recent graduates are in such great demand, that we have almost given up answering requests from all over the country for help in finding personnel. Our faculty has grown with our student body and with our enrichment of program. When we began our operations we had only one full-time instructor and a handful of part-time instructors picked from other facultiesand from the community. We now have five full-time faculty members in Buffalo, two half-time faculty members in Buffalo, and two fulltime faculty members in Syracuse, as well as over twenty part-time faculty members in Buffalo, Syracuse, Utica and other places. Our student body now numbers approximately 100 full-course students and about 200 additional part-time students. These latter are located in Buffalo, Rochester, Syracuse, Utica, Binghamton, and Jamestown. Our programof instruction,both in the classroom and in the field, has expanded along with the widened outreach of the SocialWork profession. Twenty years ago SocialWork was envisaged as a bundle of techniques associated with certain specific knowledgesconcerning human personality. Social Work still requires an understanding of personality factors, and of the dynamics of individual and group behavior. It still calls for a great deal of highly developed skill in relating helpfully and professionally to people with economic, social, emotional,and other problems. However the leaders of Social Work have also come to realize that they must cast their nets wider than they used to. It is important to have an understanding of the society in which Social Work has to operate and also of the larger forces,and, especially the pressures within the social, national, and international scene, that affect the lives of people. Finally, Social Work calls upon the results of many other sciences, ranging all the way from medicine, psychology, and psychiatry, to statistics, political science, and administration. Also field work has been expanded so as to include not only casework and group work agencies, but also agencies of community organization, community relations, medical and psychiatric services,school departments, courts, parole and probation offices, and many others. We now have a student employed in the National Catholic Welfare Conferenceoffice in Occupied Germany. In the past, we have placed students in some of our larger SocialWelfare Departments on the State level and in our Federal agencies. Mention has been made of our work in other cities and this leads to our most and perhaps our most significant development. From time to time we have been asked to set up extension courses in various cities of Western New York and even Eastern Pennsylvania. We have responded occasionally to these calls, but have not done so as often as we might, because we believe that SocialWork education should be offeredin what might be called a package of organized courses and concurrent field work. However during the middle 1940's we were formally rerecent quested by Syracuse University to help set up a programin Social Work Education in that area. After consultation with the New York State authorities, we established what has come to be called the University of Buffalo-Syracuse University Cooperative Program in Social Work Education. We have two full-time instructors who are jointly members of the facultiesof the University of Buffalo and Syracuse University, who live at Syracuse and who give courses and supervise field work there. We also send members of our full-time faculty to Syracuse every week throughout the school year and sometimes one of the Syracuse Faculty comes to Buffalo to give a course in his particular specialty. We do not know of anything quite like this in the way of inter-university cooperation anywhere else in the United States. The program in Rochester is on a somewhat different basis but its net result is that Rochester University is also working with us in sponsoring social work professional education and we also are supplying a part of the faculty for that effort. Our work in Jamestown, Utica, and Binghamton, are operated in conjunction with our operations in either Buffalo or Syracuse. In every instance we work througha local university or college center. There are several ways in which social work education benefitsfrom a regional program such as has been developed by the University of Buffalo and its sister institutions. It makes professional education more widely available, by bringing it to the communities in which social work practitioners and professional aspirants live. It is more economical in time and money to send one instructor to a class of 30 than to bring 30 students to the instructor— and it is more likely that these will be a class of 30! The community and its social agencies are benefitedby having social work education carried on within their borders. They are more likely to recruit, and to hold onto, traineu professional workers, rather than have them drained off into those few major metropolitan centers where social work education has heretofore been concentrated. Their people are trained in terms of the problems and patterns peculiar to their own locale. Their agency staffsare stimulated by having field work students placed with them for supervision, just as a hospital staff profits from the experience of working alongside internes and medical students. There is a saving in the utilization of professional talent, in two ways. On the one hand, the services of well-qualified local practitioners are made available to professional education. In Syracuse, Rochester, Utica, and Binghamton we have enlisted social workers, physicians, psychologists, and psychiatrists into our educational operation. On the other hand, there is the maximum utilization of the knowledge and know-how of the specialists who make up the full-time staff of the Schoolof SocialWork. Suchpersons are hard to find and harder yet to recruit in the faceof the intense shortages that characterize social work personnel. It is better to build up a sizeable staff of first-class instructors at a central point, and "loan them out" to other communities from time to time, than to set up three or four faculty groups, minimal both in size and quality. Finally a regional programexpands the scope of field work training. Field work is the laboratory of social work education, and student enrollment is limited by available field work placements. By developing field work in Niagara Falls, Jamestown,Dunkirk, Gowanda,Elmira, Utica, Syracuse, and Rochester,we have at least doubled our capacity, and we have greatly enriched the range of significant learning experience available to our young people. Enrichment of our field work program has been mentioned. It is our hope that the enrichment of all our program will be the keynote of the University of Bufalo Schoolof Social Work in the years ahead. We already have a specialization in Psychiatric Social Work that is officially accredited and that is being financially aided by the Federal Government. We are in the process of setting up a specialty in Social Group Work, and we are strengthening our offerings in Community Organization, Public Welfare, and Research. We want to widen the scope of our total operation, along the lines laid down in the challenging Hollis-Taylor report on social work education that has just been published. We want to prepare our graduates to work in medical,school, and other specialized settings for which they are not now qualified. Even more, we want to enable them to follow the expansion of social work functionsinto government, industry, labor relations, and international cooperation. Also we want to prepare a few students for research,teaching, and top-level administration. We have a good faculty. We want a better one. This means the addition of specialists in additional fields. It also means giving the faculty we already have enough relaxed time, privacy, and technical assistance to grow and to produce professionally. And most of all, we want to (indeed to save our professional souls we must) increase the fund of knowledge available to our profession. Like all new fields of endeavor,social work has been subsisting largely on material borrowed from other professions,—on that, and on improvisation and hunch. We can't go on "playing by ear" much longer. We have to work out our own professional principles of practice and the basic data upon which those principles may be firmly built. And the schools of social work are the places where this job of research and professional statesmanship has,in the main, got to be done. Up to now our school has regrettably done less than it should,and less than the people on its faculty would and could. We feel like quoting a great statesman who said, in another connection, "Give us the tools and we will finish the job". 25 �26 General and Technical Division Prepares Two-Year Curricula by John A. Beane Director of the Division of General& Technical Studies and Nicholas Kish Assistant In June, 1952, the University of Buffalo will conferfor the first time in its history the two-year degrees of Associate in Arts and Associate in Applied Scienceupon those candidates who have successfully completed the program of study prescribed for the degrees. The event must be noted as another landmark in the continuous and determined efforts of the University to render a community service to the area within which it operates, and at the same time to facethe challenge of every educational problem as it makes its appearance. The Division of General and Technical Studies,with its two year curriculum, is the fourteenthand newest addition to the many divisions of the University. It is designed to play an important role in providing the University's answer to urgent and serious problems that have confronted educational institutions for many years. Foremost among these problems has been the question of what to do about the young people who graduate yearly from our high schools. Educational statistics show that approximately a million of these young people are graduated each year. An equal number withdraw beforecompleting their high school programs. Of this collective group, with or without diplomas, less than twenty per cent continue their education in some higher institution of learning. Oneout of every two young people who enter college, receive a diploma or a degree. The other individual, for one reason or another drops out at the end of one or two years of study. Many of these young people leave college because they cannot finance themselves beyond two years of study. -Someleave because of inadequate scholastic ability. Whatever the reason might be, it is evident that the education provided these youngpeople during their short stay in college should prepare them to assume their responsibilities as good citizens in our society. Another troublesome problem is presented by the thousands of young people who are turned awayby colleges as material they deem unable to lend itself to traditional academic practices. To the majority of this group secondary education thus becomes terminal education. Col- to the Director leges, for the most part, are concerned with training for professions which call for high academic achievement. Therefore, they select those students whose records indicate high native endowment for working with intellectual tools. Truthfully speaking, this professional group is only a percentage of the total group which needs to be served by a university. Development of our society has shown there is need for a group of people working with an understanding of the problems of the professional group. It has been undeniably demonstrated,that in order to receive this understanding, it is necessarythat education be continued beyond the high school and this further education be attained within the framework of a university. We must also recognize that each individual is a potential contributor to human progress. Regardless of their abilities all our young people have the same needs—a chance to belong to, and be considered as important factors in our social order; opportunities to develop standards by which to govern their lives; a chance to gain economic independence and to prepare for the establishment and maintenance of a good family life. The Division of Generaland Technical Studies, with its various two-year study programs, is dedicated to the purpose of meeting the needs of these groups of young people. We believe that this goal is best achieved in the atmosphere of intellectual freedom of the University of Buffalo where students may develop their ability to suspend judgment until evidence is gathered, and then boldly to make wise decisions. Certainly these men and women who will form the alumni of this new division of the University will have no doubt of the need of such programs. They must decide whether we have succeeded in our effort. The courses in general education,introduced into the University of Buffalo by this Division, cut across various fields of knowledge so that an integrated approach toward present day problems may- be achieved. The technical courses are designed to help the student understand the professional person's problems and to aid him in translating theory into prac- tice. All of the courses are aimed to achieve the general decision-making goals indicated above. The future of the Division in the next fifty years looks bright. In the years to come our country facesthe need for an expanding system of elementary and secondary schools. Educators predict that students of the future in increasing numbers will of necessity seek schooling at an extended age level, until the age of twenty at least. Increased enrollment in these areas will mean increased attendance in post-secondary institutions. The task of providing appropriate education for these groups of young people, particularly those representing students with patterns of abilities, interests,and longrange goals not previously served by the colleges, presents a challenge which the Division is prepared to meet. Colleges have never found it too difficult to stimulate the superior students to continue their learning and to prepare them for the leadership that should be theirs. To broaden the viewpoints of the vast masses of our people, to open new vistas of interest to them, and to incline them more directly toward social goals is desirable for the future economical,political and social interests of our country. Colleges must concern themselves with appropriate programsof study and work for the long neglected averageyoungperson—for the kinds of young people who will be the very backbone or bulwark of our democracy in the years to come. The Division looks forward to the task of preparing new educational programs for the vast majority of young people who will not continue beyond the first two years of college, programs realistically adapted to both the potentialities of the young people and the needs of our rapidly changing social and economic order. In our democratic state decisions must be made by all our citizens at all levels,it is essential,therefore,that every young person be educated both for intelligentparticipation in democratic processes and for the personal growth and development that are the goals of our democratic living. To this goal, the Division pledges its efforts in the years to come. �27 Millard Fillmore College To Expand Diversified Offerings by Robert F. Berner Acting Dean of Millard Fillmore College In passing the North Main Street Campus during the evening, witness, if you will, the blaze of light which illuminates the atmosphere. It is symbolic of the fact that the University, through Millard Fillmore College, has accepted one of the primary obligations of this community—the systematic and uniform spread of opportunities for adult education over the whole community. Great progresshas been evidenced during the last 25 years in providing credit cur- ricula and non-credit interest courses to the adults in this area. The future will evidence pervasive expansion of these educational opportunities. In the following report, the writer presents a synopsis of the diversity of services offered through Millard Fillmore College and the anticipated progress of each. Formal-Credit Offerings: Historically, Millard Fillmore College has pioneered in the development of course offerings to serve the educational needs of the adult citizenry in the Niagara Frontier area. The varied credit curricula in Arts & Sciences,Business Administration, Engineering, Education, and Social Work attest to the fact that the University has made available educational opportunity not only to a short span of early manhood,but to young and old alike during hours which permit a combination of daytime work and evening education. Frequently, courses originating in Millard Fillmore College have mushroomed in popularity and have served as a nucleus of special departments created in the regular day divisions of the University. The next 50 years will see a continuation of this pioneering spirit. Sensitiveto the educational demands of the grown men and women in this community, the administration will continue to act as a fore-runner in the development of special credit programs. Non-Credit-Adult Interest Courses: Great progresshas been made in the development of non-credit courses. These are planned with a view to the special interests of adult students,where no conventional text-books are required and where no formal requirements of previous education are specified. With the aid of the University faculty, trained in the leadership of adult-level courses, we . anticipate the offering of many new noncredit courses designed to: help mature persons in their everyday living and working, provide a background for their interpretation of current problems, aid in the development of new interests, heighten their enjoyment and appreciation of worthwhile things, and stimulate intellectual curiosity. To date,interest,as evidenced by satisfactory enrollment, has been shown in such courses as "The Law and You", a series of lectures and discussions designed in non-technical language to provide for laymen a better understanding of law and legal institutions in the United Statestoday, as they affect not only the practical problems of everyday living, but current issues in American political and economic life. Other popular courses have been: "Accounting for the Small Business","The Charming Hostess", "Semantics", "Lectures on Symphonic Music", and "Physics tions of the population into the older-age groups. Consistentwith this trend, opportunities should be provided to enable this age group to continue on as a vital part of our society. Therefore,non-credit programs involving work-shops and seminars will be formulated to assist these people in making decisions about such common problems as supplementingfixed pension incomes,living with "In-laws", and government legislation affecting their group. "In-Servtce"Training: The expansion of educational service to business and industry is evidenced by the greater proportion of the faculty's time which is spent in planning and teaching of tailor-made training courses for the management and/or technical personnel of individual business establishments, generally taught on their premises.

A Busy, Beautiful Place by Leslik O. Cummbvcs Director of the Summer Session The Campus in Summer! What a beautifulplace in which to take advantage of die opportunities offered through the Summer Session! Preparation for the activities of the summer goes on all through the fall and winter. Through the SummerSessionadministration the regular programsof the various Campus divisions: The College of Arts and Sciences,and the Schoolsof Business, Administration, Education, Engineering, Nursing and Pharmacy, and the Department of Air Scienceare made available to regular students. To these are added students from the Niagara Frontier who attend other educational institutions scattered over a wide area. A list of these includes students from 94 other institutions and from 21 states and 5 foreign countries. With the addition of new dormitories to be constructed in the near future, we hope to broaden the scope of SummerSessionin regard to non-resident students. In addition to providing opportunities for study in the usual course of events, the SummerSessionof the University will continue as it has in the past to play the role of innovator,experimenter, and demonstrator of new ideas. Ventures which are first tried in the summer frequently become incorporated in the academic year. Illustrations of these are: The Visual Aids Laboratory, introduced in Summer Session,has led to the development of a University service for audio-visual aids. As a result the entire University has a wealth of materials, demonstrations and service to improve teaching and make instruction more real and graphic to students. The Human Relations Seminarwhich filled the need for preparing teachers in this new area of Education has expanded and developed as a Schoolof Education course since its inception in the 1951 SummerSession. A recognition of the needs of the community and the introduction of timely subjects will always be an aim of the SummerSession.Examples of this in recent years are: The Laboratory in Elementary School Problems—especially designed to prepare college graduates for certification in teaching and made vital through the cooperation of classes of children at the elementary level conducted by experienced teachers. This course is becoming increasingly popular and will continue to keep pace with the latest developments in educational theories. The Youth Cooperative Group—prospects are that this special program for high school Sophomores and Juniors will continue to play an important role in the teacher education program of Summer Session.These young people are brought to the Campus and offered opportunities to learn and play under the careful direction of skilled teachers,administrators and guidance workers, to see in demonstration classes and in small, informal groups, some of the newest theories and latest concepts of methodology put into practice. In addition the program is of considerable service to the youths who attend. Many of them realize new potentialities and all are made to feel that they are important. Their experiences are enriched by contact with the University and the community itself is enriched as the students' ideals of respect for fellows, responsibility and integrity are further enhanced. An expansion of this program and of the number and scope of the demonstration groups is anticipated. Science and the Modern World—a cooperative project involving the biology, chemistry, geology, and physics departments in a program which will tie in lectures,discussion,laboratory work and field trips in a timely approach to scientific topics of current interest. Work Conferencein Community Nursing—an example of service to the community by the University which will give nurses an opportunity for practical solutions to problems in everyday nursing. One of the most interesting ventures of an exceptional nature has developed over the years into a regular feature of the Summer Session, namely the Art Courses.Startedin 1928 when there was a need in the community for preparing teachers of Art to meet state certification, in the summer of 1952 the courses open their 25th year. A feature of these art courses has been the bringing to the teachers of this area artists of note: Lewis Rubinstein, Harry Leith-Ross, Blanchard Brown, Bertha K. Budde and Charles Burchfield.The SummerSession administration hopes to continue to widen the scope of the Art courses. For instance, in the SummerSessionof 1952 the Art Courses bring to the Campus Robert Blair, former head of the Buffalo Art Institute and winner of two Guggenheim Fellowships. The SummerSessionadministration is always anxious for suggestions of methods by which it may better serve the community. �29 Personnel Plans for Further Careful Guidance by Edward S. Jones Dean of Students& Directors of Personnel Office Personnel officesor officesof the Dean of Studentshave varied meanings in the colleges of this country. There is not only a great differencein emphasis from college to college, but often from year to year; and new administrative policies may call for changes in activities of the University of Buffalo. In the past, the Personnel Office has been divided into four general areas: Testing; Counseling; Remedial Work and Placement (part time and permanent). For many years, nearly every entering student has taken four standardized tests which have included a variety of aptitude sub-tests,and has filled out a 4 pagesheet of biographical data. On the basis of these tests it is often possible to caution students about loads of work, types of curricula and the need of remedial work in essential fields. Supplementary interest or personality testing is also suggested in many cases. Employers often request information about test scores. The counseling activities of this office have been subject to considerable discussion, in part because of different philosophies of guidance. We have initiated some group conferences and a good deal of individual orientation counseling for all entering students. Students are interviewed not only about courses, but study techniques, outside interests or hobbies and emotional or other problems which might affect their progressin college or in a vocation. We believe that at least 80 per cent of these interviews are of definite advantage to the student. Contrary to practice in many colleges which have a faculty advising system, it is not necessarily the man who volunteers to come in for counseling who benefits.We have tried in the College of Arts and Sciences,a dual advisory system, in which every student's final registration blank must be signed by a faculty advisor and a member of the Personnel Office. This may seem like a waste of time on the surface but, in reality, may be of real value to the student. He gets more than one point of view; he hears not only the viewpoint of his department or some chosen professor but he also gets the viewpoint of a placement and adjustment office which tries to keep up on professional requirements and occupational demands of the community. In the end, he generally makes his own choice,but on the basis of more than one suggestion. He is not as Hkely to be dictated to as in erage college, but learns lo make the avhis own decisions,which is the ultimate goal of personnel counseling. Various kinds of remedial counseling or drill work have been tried in this Office. Courseprogramson improvement of study habits, on reading speed and comprehension, and on note-taking have lasted from two to ten weeks. Considerableattention has been given to the handlingof probation students in the College of Arts and Sciences with the effort not to scold them but to provide useful suggestions, drills and methods of study, and an improved motivation. Someinteresting experiments have been tried in the direction of meeting homogeneous groups such as very young students,or those inclined to worry, for special groupcounseling. The placement of graduates from a college office has many aspects. Not only have we spent much time on placing students on a part time basis on or off campus but we have undertaken several activities with the aim of guiding or informing our students occupationally, ultimately placing our students in a vocation which will be most advantageous to them and to the community. Toward these ends we have progressed with various projects; group vocational guidance conferences; a course on occupational information with credit; group and individual interviews by outside industrial experts with our students; informative or corrective interviews by the placement director on posture, how to get a job,writing to and visiting local industries. Often we have used supplementarytesting, or repeat personality adjustment counseling for the more difficult cases. The clerical work, and time for interviewing, or for greeting outside employer-agents can run into time and money. We believe a decided expansion of our placement services would be of advantage to our alumni; it could also enhance the good will of the community towards the University. Our greatest need at the present is a salary scale for placement and other personnel workers which will insure satisfactory permanent employment, rather than a continual turn-over of men who are in key public-relations positions. The type of man most needed is the type who will be offered many positions, but strongly believes in the personnel adjustment of young college people. He should have a nose for research as well as the capacity to keep in good contact with professors on campus and employers in industry. There is often a decided breech between the ideal and the practical, and personnel work in general offersillustrations of the discrepancy. Any of the above activities could be carried on more successfully with more funds. Also new development in personnel work could be initiated, such as more contacts with dormitories and fraternities, with extra-curricular interests on the part of each student for the development of strong personalities, with foreign-born students, and with many sorts of remedial cases. Naturally the direction of expansion would depend in part on the personal interests of the regular staff of the Personnel Office; it would also be affectedby higher administrative policies and attitudes. The best type of faculty advising costs money—time taken from class room instruction—and requires faculty members who are willing to take suggestions from those who are better informed about counseling methods and professional and other requirements in the state or federal government. We believe more attention could profitablybe paid to career planning at the end of the sophomore year, before the choice of a department is made, and in the senior year. No personnel official in a democracy can appropriately dictate a course of study or type of occupation for a student. However, he should be realistically informative; he should tell a C, or averagestudent that his chances of acceptance in medical school or for graduate training will be almost nil, and what related fields might be suitable. Ideally, a student should be "sold" on something which is reasonable for him, and motivated to try his best to qualify as a satisfactory person in that field. In our culture, much of this guidance must be indirect, since many students as well as parents are disappointed at a blunt approach. A program of career analysis involves a far-reaching survey of occupational outlooks, which in turn implies curriculum change, and the institution of entirely new course fields. In order to avoid the over-production of some graduates, with a surplus of jobs in other fields of spe(Continued on Page 28) �30 Personnel Office (Continued) cializaiion, the possibilities of an occupations-development bureau is indicated. Such a committee would make surveys and come out with revealing reports available to the faculty curriculum committees and Personnel Office advisors. As indicated above,research should be a major part of any personnel office procedure. Surveys and research projects with the maximum of scientific control for the type of educational data available will inevitably show up spots in our collegiate programs which need strengthening or developing anew. Fortunately we have the basis for much research through the personnel blank data required from all entering students at the University of Buffalo. We can match people of the same general ability who have gone into one program with others in entirely different programs of study or types of occupations. We should find out, for example, what kinds of people make the best social workers, or lawyers. To conduct the basic research which is waiting will take time and extra funds, we hope, from educational foundations. The Personnel Office has already initiated, or cooperated in, our nationallyrecognized scheme of anticipatory examinations, required Graduate Records examinations,dual advising system, handling of probation students with remedial techniques, and extensive uniform testing for all freshmen.It can continue to be of assistance in these and other directions. Law School (Continued) with the Bar Associations. We are fortunate in having the close and friendly relations that we do with the Erie County Bar Association. It is our hope that in cooperation with the Bar and WBEN-TV we will be able to continue to serve the public through such programs as "The Law and You". But our obligation is deeper. The Law School faculty is in a position to serve the Bar Association by active participation in the work of its committees. We trust that we may be of even greater service in this regard in the future than we have been in the past. Finally, we are planning a StudentBar Association for our Law School. When this organization becomes a reality, we hope to affiliate as closely as possible with both the Erie County Bar Association and the American Bar Association to the end that our students will, while still in school,appreciate the importance of active participation in Bar Association activities. In conclusion,this Law School is your Law School. We welcome your suggestions, your criticisms,and your support. We are looking forward to the development of even closer ties during these next fifty years, and to an ever stronger and more active group, looking to the development of an even better law school than you had when you were here—if that be possible. School of Education (Continued) of a pioneering beginning must necessarily characterize the Schoolto enable it to meet the challenges of the future. The recent announcementof the establishment of the Educational Research Center is an illustration. It gives promise of a service which will have far reaching effects,we hope, both within the University and in the schools of the area. The center will make investigations and supply information. By providing the Schoolswith objective pictures of their educational programs,of the needs of their school buildings, athletic and recreational facilities, and with a better knowledge of the needs of the children, youth, and adults, there may be expected citizens to meet the new day. Another illustration is seen in the recent development of the courses in Human Relations. Beginning in 1950 as an experiment in cooperation with the Buffalo Board of Community Relations and the Community Relations Board of the Buffalo Board of Education, there has since developed an interest both in the Buffalo schools and in those of surroundingareas. This promises a new dedication of teachers and administrators to the task of helping children and youth to realize that every child, regardless of any factor other than his own worth and ability, shall be helped by our schools to his best. All of this adds up to the mandate that a Schoolof Education in a democratic society illustrate in its own procedures the principles of democratic leadership. It must aim to help all of those wirh whom it comes in contact in their desire to realize the hopes of our democratic faith. School of Dentistry (Continued) The practice of the profession of dentistry requires an intimate understanding of the numerous mechanical operations as employed in the routine of a busy practice. Therefore a clear comprehension of their application is essential to obtain the desired success. In the past the mechanical side of dentistry has largely overshadowed the scientificside;however,the last ten years have brought about quite a change in this situation. The present program of dental education is closely affiliated with the fundamental branch's of medicine and its study is baied on the broad principles of general biology, knowledge of which is basically essential for training in any of the health professions. The most important problem of the present and the future is to establish the best balanced program possible to meet these two important requirements of dental education. The School of Dentistry will seek the answer as to the best plan for a curriculum of dental education that will graduate our students with true ability to practice their profession and render the best services possible to humanity. Health is a priceless possession and the profession of dentistry plays an important part in preserving and restoring health to the individual. In view of this fact the curriculum of a dental school must be revised from time to time as experience and research open up new horizons. At the present time the courses are planned so as to stress the close relationship of oral health to general health. Thus early in the student's education the basic science courses are studied and it is becoming increasingly important that these be carried over to tie in with the hospital and clinical experiences of the student. The necessity of being familiar with the methods and means available to prevent dental disease will become more and more important as time goes on and the dental schools should be intensely concerned with this phase of dental education. Teaching in the various fieldsof restorative dentistry has undergone much re- vision in recent years. As the result of scientific studies of occlusion it has been demonstrated to the profession that some of the older theories regarding occlusion were not entirely correct. This field still leaves much room for scientific research and experimentation. In the field of dental materials that are used by the profession for restorative dentistry there have been many revolutionary advances. The discovery and adaptation of new materials for dental restorations,together with the development of techniques for their use in the fieldof dentistry will continue. The dental school and its facultiesare important contributors in this field, for some of this experimentation should be carried on in various departments of the dental school. Our dental department will keep abreast of new developments and aid as much as possible in this intriguing search for better techniques and materials. One of the outstanding accomplishments of the dental department in the past fifteen to twenty years has been the excellent teaching relationship effected with the various hospitals in the community. Our students have had the advantage of hospital clinical practice, observation teaching, ward observation,and learning general hospital routine. This type of experience is of great value later in consultations with our medical colleagues. In the future we hope to expand and improve this important phase of the teaching program. The University of Buffalo's Schoolof Dentistry must and will maintain its place in advancement of dental knowledge.This will be made possible when we have the physical facilities, research facilities, personnel,and above all, the active support of the alumni. The foregoing has been a modest effort to cover the past, the present and the hopes for the future of our School of Dentistry and its place in the march of progress.Much has been left unsaid but we can all be proud of our heritage and look with confidenceinto the future. �31 CONSTRUCTION OF DORMITORIES TO START SOON AT LAST—DORMS! Constructionwill start in a few weeks on these three dormitory units to be built on campus. To be located northerly on the campus, the dormitories will be the peak of a triangle which would have Foster and Norton Halls as the other two points. The two dormitory units to the left in the artist's drawing will accommodate men and the other, women a total of about 275 students. — EDUCATION RESEARCH CENTER ESTABLISHED Beane Heads Corporation Liaison Office; Berner Acting Millard Fillmore Dean Designed to provide special services to Western N.

Frequently the success of a research program or service depends upon the pooling of resources in several fields or departments of a university. One of the functions of the new Liaison Office will be to co-ordinate the University's activities with the industrial, financial, and business corporations, as well as the many technical and non-technical organizations in the area." Among the services the new office will offer to Niagara Frontier firms are use of the University's libraries and special clinics, assistance in conducting research projects, and faculty services for special training courses.

The ceremony was part of Syracuse University's mid-year commencement on January 27th. In presenting the degree, Chancellor William P. Tolley of Syracuse cited Dr. McConnell'srecord of research,scholarship, and educational administration as "one of the most distinguished in American higher education today". Millard Fillmore College now offered on a relatively small scale, as business and industry become more aware of the services which the University and its faculty can provide, the future will see a large number of firms in Buffalo, as well as in the smaller but industrially expanding cities of Western New York, requesting the extension of Millard Fillmore College's "In Service" courses to them. Extension Programs: Present statistics indicate that over 500 students commute from such outlying cities as Jamestown,Silver Creek, Dunkirk, Niagara Falls, Batavia, the Tonawandas,and several others. Concomitant with the principle of providing broader service to an ever-expanding community, Millard Fillmore College will expand its facilities by establishing extension units in several of these outlying communities. Evidence of this trend can best be illustrated by: a. the now-existent course in Engineering Vibrations offeredin Olean, New York; and b. the formulationof a special course in Secretarial Practice, to prepare students for the examinations leading to the designation of Certified ProfessionalSecretaries,which will be taught in Niagara Falls. Continuation of this trend leads quite Dr. Tolley said, in part: "The trustees of the University of Buffalo could not have found a man more eminently qualified than you to enrich and advance the spirit of the scholar-administrator". Syracuse's Chancellor also praised the many scholarly books and articles Dr. McConnell has written and mentioned the fact '.hat he has been chosen by President Truman to be a member of the Commissionon Higher Education. (Continued) definitely to the establishment of perma- units in several of these cities to provide adult education opportunities, credit and non-credit alike, to a greater number of people living in these comnent munities. Millard Fillmore College Alumni Association: Interest in the establishment of a separate "Alumni" group for students completing a majority of their work through Millard Fillmore College has been growing. These graduates who had not participated in the activities of the day-time divisions, whose faculty recommended the granting of a degree, look forward to the establishment of a Millard Fillmore College Alumni group. The Alumni Secretary joins with the officialsof the Evening Division in encouraging this interest, and we anticipate its formulation in the very near future. Conclusion: The diversity of services and the diversity of courses which can be administered through Millard Fillmore College are almost limitless. Expansion, extension, and change of these services will be the rule during the next 50 years. The adults in Western New York communities are interested in self improvement or in specific advancement. Their demands will be met by your University. Engineering (Continued) gether in the Human Environment Laboratory in the Health Center. You have all benefitedfrom the work of this laboratory.

Engineering education today differs a great deal from that of a half century ago. Your education,more than adequate in its day, would today be totally inadequate for entrance to the profession. The evolutionary increase in the science of engineering, the continued growth of the Scienceat the expense of the Art, inevitably found the four college years inadequate to the purpose. The prospective engineer today must expectat the end of his common public education to obtain at least an Associate degree and frequently a Bachelor degree in Humanics with a minor in Mathematics and Sciencebefore entering the Schoolof Engineering. After three yearshere, he may receive a Bachelor of Sciencedegree and enter industry as an aide or technician in specific capacities. For a professional career he continues two years toward a degree of Master of Mechanical,Electrical, etc. Engineering, and 25% continue two more years to the degree of Doctor of Engineering. The latter degree is essential for certain professional posts. In either case, he is then ready to enter industry as an intern for a period of from 2 to 3 years before being assigned to a division of the industry of his choice. Today 80% of professional students in Engineering have state sponsored or endowed scholarships or fellowships. Fifty years ago, one writer said that 50% of the people are employed in industries which did not exist 50 years ago." Today, a similar statement would read 60%. These changes have been due largely to the labors of the engineers of this country. You, the Engineering Alumni, have had an important part in these developments. You will continue the good work. You will expect your School to continue its leading role in the future. You will make it possible for the class of '01 to review the next fifty years with a sense of achievement even greater than that which you have experienced.

Specific gift records for schools,classes, and individuals will be published in the Honor Roll to be sent to all alumni soon. PART OF FUND MONEY FOR SCHOLARSHIPS At an Alumni Loyalty Fund Executive Committeemeeting this month, Chancellor T. R. McConnell announced that the University administration had decided to apportion $10,000 annually from the Loyalty Fund receipts to the Committeeon Scholarships and Loans for the granting of scholarships to outstanding student leaders beginning this next fall. Dean Lillias M. Macdonald, chairman of the Scholarship Committee,has asked the Bulletin to convey the thanks and appreciation of her committee to the Alumni. She added: "The committee hopes that alumni will recommend outstanding high school seniors in their communities. Such recommendations should be addressed to me and should reach me prior to April Ist." TEACHERS: REGISTER! Alumni interested in teaching positions for next year or shortly thereafter are urged to contact the Teacher Placement Office, Hayes Hall, Buffalo 14, N. Y. Several unusual positions for experienced teachers are available. Registration is confidential.Filling out the necessaryforms puts a teacher-alumnus on the mailing list to receive notification of top-oight opportunities as they occur. In announcing Mr. Augspurger's appointment, Mr. Knox said: "The University is an independent institution, indepently controlled and financed, and depends for all of its support on the community it serves.

Home In Action A scant 17 points have kept CoachMai Eiken and the University of Buffalo cage Bulls from an undefeatedrecord thus far. Suffering losses of 1 point to Rochester, 3 points to Connecticut,6 points to Canisius,and 7 points to Colgate, the Bulls stand at 16 and 5 for the season, and seem a cinch to post their best season as Eikenmen. Instrumental in every victory, and outstanding in each defeat, has been the performance of the Bulls one-two scoring punch, Captain Hal Kuhn and freshman sensation Jim Home. Hal's 19.3 game average coupled with Jimmy's 17 per, have consistently accounted for about half of the game's score. The cage Bulls are by no means a two man team, however, for Howie Johnt,Dan Craft, Jim Rooney, and Dick Riley have been steady scorers, and as Eiken says,"any one of my first six can be high for any single game." The lack of bench strength and of real height have been the Bulls' only drawbacks so far, but with three more games to play, and a win-heavy record behind them, the team is proving that speed, hustle, and accuracy can still produce a winning season. At press time, the eager-Bulls had just received an invitation to participate in the sectional elimination tourneys at Rudierford, N. J., success in which would mean participation in the National Invitation Tourney in the late spring. The University accepted the invitation promptly. HAFKIN, '50, IS KILLED IN KOREA Lieut.

Senior Hal Kuhn and freshman Jim Home coupled points per game averages of 20.2 and 16.3 with Howie Johnt's 9.8 to lead the highest scoring Then Setting one record that was to stand for 20 years, and another that is yet to be matched, made the University's 1930-31 basketball team the most memorable in local cage history. Until this year, their record of fifteen wins in one season remained unchallenged. Still to be matched is their undefeated season. Leonard E. Schrag, BS(Bus)'3l, was top scorer of that epic club with an average of 11.4 points per game, and he was closely followed by Edmund E. Malanowicz, BS(Bus)'32, with a 10.7 average, and Robert P. Harrington, LLB'32, with 8.1. At season's end, the '30-'3l Bulls under Art Powell's able coaching numbered Cornell, Carnegie Tech, Niagara, Rochester, and 11 other traditional rivals as their victims. Averaging a phenomenal 46.6 points per game, as opposed to 26.1 for their opponents, the Bulls hit a high of 59 points in their season's windup against Rochester, a surprising total for the days of the center jump. Success was evidently their byword because each team member has gone on to gain recognition in his field of study. Harrington and Harold A. Dautch, BS(Bus)'32, LLB'37, are practicing lawyers; Schrag and Julius Hoffman, LLB'33, are now successful accountants; Malanowicz is a high school principal; Arthur G. Rauscher, DDS'3S, is practicing dentistry in Skaneatles, N. Y.; and Thomas J.

Washington & Jefferson, Connecticut, Niagara, and Bucknell were their "favorite" victories as these modern eager-Bulls averaged 74.8 points per game and twice passed the 100 mark with 108 against Ontario Aggies and 106 against McMaster. Countering their lack in heighth, in a game where a six-footer is considered short, was their blazing fast break and a phenomenal 40.1 shooting percentage. Coach Mai Eiken's team was a constant threat, capable of "exploding" for as many as eight points in less than 30 seconds to turn the tide in their favor. Although racked with injuries and hampered by bad colds, the Bulls did accept a post season tournament bid and pushed the New Jersey State champions, Fairleigh-Dickinson College, to the final three minutes before succumbing 63 to 55. Those 8 points, incidentally, represented the widest point spread in any of the '51-'52 Bulls' six defeats. Pictured below is the '51-'52 squad which so ably emulated the team of 20 years ago. They are, from left to right, front row, kneeling, Rooney, Johnt, Craft, Home, and Kuhn; back row, standing, Coach Eiken, Nowak, Ramming, Donaldson, Riley, Gicewicz, Thorn, Scamurra, Schrutt, Muto, Falsetti, and Shelgren. �4.. .

We think you'll like the cover picture; those of us who "dreamed it up" are glad it turned out as well as it did. One of the Alumni OfficeStaff came up with the idea in a conference—said we should the try to picture the new Medical-Dental building and at the same time convey its importance to like to think of it as get the idea. We men and women who will be it. We think using you'll young a constant watchword for the University doing a distinguished service in education today, and always "building toward tomorrow". — Development Campaign and the Loyalty Fund How do the current Development Campaign and the Alumni Loyalty Fund fit together? Will the alumni be asked for funds twice this year? The answer to both questions is this. The Development Campaign is a capital gifts campaign designed to raise 53,500,000 to finish the Medical-Dental Building and build the much-needed physics building. Naturally, the alumni of the University will participate in theraising of those funds and, we think, wish to give generously. To the end that each alumnus may concentrate his giving to that important Campaign, the Alumni Loyalty Fund will not seek contributions this year. HOWEVFR— and this is important to those who will want to keep up their fine record of giving to the University each year—the funds given and pledged to the Development Campaign will also be credited at the same time to the Loyalty Fund gift record. So, you won't be getting the letter from your class agent this year but you can bet on it that he's one of the "workers" in the Campaign. Incidentally, those of you who live beyond Western New York's area will be given an opportunity to participate in the Campaign in the fall of this year.

J'°£?>?>>. �FromCthFeunmditeChairman: Dear Alumnus of University of Buffalo: I wish to thank you personally each and everyone who gave to the Loyalty Fund for 1951. The report for the year is the most successfulin the history of Loyalty Fund giving. The total number who gave not only showed a gratifying increase, but the total amount given is the greatest. This demonstrates clearly the loyalty that the alumni of the University of Buffalo have for their alma mater. It shows that you believe in the University of Buffalo and what it stands for, and that you as alumni appreciate the definiteobligation you have to your school. The present state of foreign affairs is a real challenge to all of us for the preservation of our form of government, now—more than ever—we should preserve and strengthen those values which are the very core of a democratic way of life. Remember that the University of Buffalo, as other privately endowed institutions is in need of financial help and will always need your loyal and generous support, you as an alumnus can answer this need through the Alumni Loyalty Fund. It should be the hope of every alumnus that this fund will continue to grow each year until it fully meets the need. We can only do this by increasing the number of contributors each year and in continuing to give year after year. Thank you again for the demonstration of your loyalty in the past and may it continue in the future. Sincerely yours. From the Chancellor of the University: TO THE ALUMNI: You are to be congratulated on the fifty percent increase in the 1951 Alumni Loyalty Fund over the amountcontributed in 1950. You will want to know, I am sure, how the 1951 fund will be used. Ten thousand dollars of it will be assigned to the Committeeon Scholarships and Loans to be used for grants to worthy students during the coming year. Our student aid funds are far too meager, and this allocation will enable a goodly number of students to secure a university education who could not otherwise manage it financially. The remainder of the fund for 1951 will be applied toward the general support of the University. After the Medical-Dental and Physics-Classroom buildings are constructed,the most pressing need will be for increased current support of the University's educational program.The Alumni Loyalty Fund should be one of the principal sources of assistance for current operations. I can report to you that in spite of the fact that our budgets, like those of all other institutions, have had to be trimmed recently, the University's basic educational program has been kept intact, and modest though inadequate salary increases have been given to faculty members. The University of Buffalo has sufferedless than many other institutions in this retrenchment period for several reasons. First, the University conducts few "marginal" enterprises—its funds are devoted to central and fundamentaleducational services. Second,we have utilized to the fullest all possible sources of current income, and have held all non-educational expenditures, such as maintenance of the plant, to the minimum. We are defraying the costs of new construction out of gifts for capital funds. The University will always have more needs than it can meet. New developments constantly occur in all fieldsin which we give instruction,the University's community responsibilities are increasing, and the requirements of industry and the professions make ever greater demands on us. Throughout its history the University has kept pace with cultural, social,and educational developments and it must continue to do so, without compromising the high educational standards for which it is so widelyknown. With the help of the Alumni Fund, and with the benefitof a somewhat larger enrollment than had been anticipated, the budget for 1951-52 will be very nearly balanced. But it will be necessaryto budget an operating deficit for 1952-53 in order to maintain essential educational services. The continued support of alumni, therefore,is of the greatest importance. In closing, let me express the University's appreciation of the wholehearted cooperation that its graduates and former students have given in the organization of the drive for capital funds.The entire institution will profit enormously from the construction of the Medical-Dental and the Physics-Classroom buildings. You will be proud of the growth of your Alma Mater, and you will take deep satisfaction,I am sure, from your part in it. May I call your attention to the fact that three new dormitories will be ready for occupancyon February 1, 1953. These campus residences should make the University even more attractive to the sons and daughters of alumni who live beyond the local area, and to other young people who wish to attend a residential institution. We at the University hope that whenever possible alumni will visit the campus and call on us in our offices. Our latch-strings are always out. �2 Alumni Gift Record The Alumni Loyally Fund comprises [he gifts from alumni which are made available each year to the University for current through one a needs as well as future plans.

" , . .' : 1891 ANNOUNCEMENT. The forty-seventh regular term of the Medical Department of the University of Buffalo begins on Monday, September £6, 1592. The college building is centrally located in High street, near the corner of.Main street, is easily reached from all parts of the city by street cars, and is one block distant from the General Hospital. It has been for yearsthe policyof this institution to keep pace with the progress of medical science. The old building having inadequate become in some particulars, a large, handsome three-story building,covering 12,000 squarefeetof space, has been erected and will be ready for occupancy at the openingof this next session (September, 1892). This is the handsomest and BEST ADAPTED BUILDING FOR THE STUDY OF ALL THE MEDICAL sciences in THE United States. It contains in addition to three amphitheaters, numerous rooms for the examination of dispensary patients, chemical, pathological, histological, bacteriological and pharmacal laboratories, and magnificent anatomical rooms, each of which is equipped with all the modern conveniences necessary for the thorough and systematic study of the various branches of medicine. The college library containsabout 3,000 volumes, the leading medical journalsare constantly on file, and a competent librarian is in daily attendance from 9a.m.to 6 p. m. The library has been largely augmented by the bequest of the rich collection of the late Dr. Geo.N. Burwell,with a handsome fund for its maintenance. The college museum holds a large number of normal and pathological specimens, and students are urged to make as much use as possible of these facilitiesplaced at their disposal. Buffalo is a rapidly growing city, with nearly 300,000 inhabitants, has large and varied manufacturing enterprises, is the terminus of lake and canal navigation and the leading railroad center in the United States. The facilities for the clinical study of almost everyform of disease or accident are thus practically unlimited, and students find here the very best of opportunities to obtain a thorough knowledge of practical medicine and surgery. The college year is divided into two terms, the regular and the spring term. The former covers a period of seven months ; the latter begins on the Monday following commencement and continues for about eight weeks, giving to the sudent an uninterrupted term of study of nine months' duration. From 8 to 12 hours are daily devoted to instruction,and comprise: �15 FROM "YESTERDAYS" NEWSPAPER THE BUFFALO TIMES ROTOGRAVURE SECTION Raising $5,000,000 For the V. of B. - lniH6U ti W,jnji'C-:.'i'.ji "...' ,nih,Fie« - Sunntni ft'oi*.

"Dean Mac" will be associated with the Alumni Officeafter July Ist and will serve as liaison representative with the women graduates, so many of whom she has known and counseled over a thirtyyear period.

There were approximately 200 women students on campus in 1922 when the dean resigned as physical education supervisor with the Buffalo schools to become Dean of Women and assistant professorof hygiene at the University. One of her first accomplishments was the establishment of a physical education program in the "old barn" at Bailey and Winspear Avenues which served as a gymnasium for both men and women. At present there are nearly 1,000 women students in the University. Every year since her first appointment, Dean Macdonald has written emphatically in her annual report about the need for dormitories on the campus. In this, her last year as dean,the dormitories are becoming a reality at last. At the groundbreaking for the dorms last month, she said, "This ceremonyfor the new campus residences for men and women is the realization of my fondest dreams". �26 DIVISION AND BRANCH CLUB NEWS Arts & Sciences Pharmacy Arts and Sciencesofficers William G.

The University Development Campaign's first stage is "off" to a distinguished start with one and a half million dollars of the three and a half million goal reported on June Ist. Alumni and friends of the University living outside Erie County are watching with interest the progress of the campaign in the area immediately adjacent to the campus. As one alum- nus, a resident of Pittsburgh, put it in a letter to the Alumni Office re- cently: "Just keep us informed on what the 'athome alumni' do Augspurger, '37 in this vital fund campaign. And let the Niagara Frontier alumni take care: those of us who live beyond the immediate area are ready and waiting for our turn to participate in a nationwide endorsement of our Alma Mater!" It gave Campaign Chairman Owen B. Augspurger, LLB'3", considerable gratification to be able to write this alumnus, in part: "Your letter expresses what many are coming to realize: that the University of Buffalo is no longer a 'street-car University. The large percentage of our graduates who live outside the Niagara Frontier; the fact that more than 23% of our present student body come from beyond commuting distance, and the importance of the University's educational and research contributions to the national seene—all these indicate wider service and obligation than we might have realized before. And these are the reasons that the University will definitely make certain that its non-resident, but obviously faithful, graduates have the opportunity to participate in the Development Campaign during the fall of this year." The Development Committee has planned autumn campaigns among branch alumni clubs in those centers where a large number of graduates live. Alumni who reside in smaller areas will have an opportunity to participate by mail. Of course, all pledges and contributions to the Development Campaign will also be credited to the Alumni Loyalty Fund. �Alumni Bulletin 2 ALUMNI NEWS ITEMS '98 LLB—John Lord O'Brien, Washington and Buffalo lawyer, has resigned from the National Mobilization Policy Board.

Surveying 500 former servicemen, now students at the University, he found there was a definite relationship between the academic marks of the student veteran and his activity while in the service. The less activity in service, the poorer student he was afterward! Modest Tuition Rise An increase in tuition to "help meet cost of operation", was by the University. The increase, amounting to $25 the growing announced this month per semester, becomes effective September Ist and applies to all daytime divisions except the Schools of Medicine and Pharmacy. While this increase follows the national trend, it is significantly less than the average rise in tuition in colleges throughout the country.

B. campus. When Norton Hall was the barracks for the man in training, the army uniform By By Jack Deeritiger was very evident. The post-War II period saw the man in uniform replaced by the "returnee" who was taking advantage of the G. I. Bill of Rights. And now it might be said that the campus has, for the most part, been turned back to the young man or woman who is seeking to get a college education directly upon completion of high school. The freshman of 1952 first saw the light of day during the depression years of the early 30's, a period when the birth rate was comparatively low. So, there are fewer graduates from his high school this year. While he was in elementary and high school, he was helped in his choice of program and in his general social growth by the developing guidance services of the public school educational system. He approaches higher education with an eagerness to learn all about the types of programs offered by the University. He wonders: "Can I change my mind after I start a i course?"; "What are the employment 'possibilities after I finish my college work?"; "What are my chances of [jetting into a professional school if I do well in a pre-professional program of study?"; "Will someone help me in planning the subjects I will be studying?"; "Can I earn money while I'm attending college?". Both men and women ask these questions. Naturally, only men make this additional query: "How will I be affected by the draft?". Most colleges and universities today are assisting the freshman of 1952 to answer these questions in many ways. Representatives visit the high schools to tell about the offerings of the institution. Organized career and college days in high schools when many colleges are asked to send representatives have become increasingly popular. Personal visitations by parent and son or daughter to college campuses seem to be an effective way for them to get to know both facilities and programs. High school students in small or large groups are invited to college campuses to "learn for themselves". The University of Buffalo for a number of years has been joining in sponsoring and encouraging all these activities. A further personalizing of this advisement service was begun last July when an Office of Admissions Counselor was opened. Let us consider how the future ) freshman gets to know about the great worth of the University. Alumni, University faculty members, high school guidance counselors, or enrolled University students may be responsible for the initial contact. Left to right: Jack Keller, BA'yl, assistant to admissions counselor; Jack Deeringer, EdM'4B, admissions counselor; and Miss Emma Deters, University Registrar. The Office of Admissions Counselor serves as a referral agent in bringing the University closer to the high school senior. When the future freshman comes to campus for the first time, he is usually directed to this office. After a chat with one of the counselors, he is referred to the dean of one of the divisions, or to the Personnel Office for advisement, or to the Registrar's office if he is not directly out of high school. Through these conferences and a tour of the campus with a student host, parent and prospect alike can get an intimate understanding of the educational offerings, the facilities, and campus life. The application for admission is then submitted to the Registrar's Office cr to the divisional office in the many case of Pharmacy. After this, of the campus services may again be brought into the picture in arranging the whole process of getting ready for entrance on September 15, 1952. The freshman of 1952 will be associating with many whose homes are not in the immediate area around Buffalo. Among those already accepted for the next freshman class are many from the metropolitan area of New York City and Long Island. Canadian students are also increasing in number. New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Virginia, Ohio, and a number of foreign countries will have natives on campus this next year as freshmen. With the new campus residences for students which will open in February 1953, the University can attract students from almost anywhere in the country because alumni and nonalumni parents will know that the University will be responsible for their sons and daughters for each 24-hour day of the academic year. Each incoming class will, of course, be composed of many Buffalo residents, for the University should certainly recognize its community obligation as well. The freshman of 1952 can enter programs that will keep him on campus from two to eight years. The Division of General and Technical Studies offers a number of fine twoyear courses, while the graduate divisions of Arts and Sciences, Education, Medicine, and Dentistry will now all be campus divisions. Even though he may plan to attend the School of Law or Social Work, much of his time may be spent on the campus. This fall's freshman class will be the second class to enroll in the Air Force R.O.T.C. program. These men can be fairly sure of continuing their education to the completion of the program, graduating as commissioned officers in the Air Force Reserve. This gives the U. B. freshman of 1952 a feeling of security, and he can plan accordingly. It tends to make him realize the seriousness of study because failure in the program will definitely affect the future. The young woman entering the University in 1952 looks toward a program that will bring with it ability to earn a living. Each of the divisions offers a wealth of opportunity for the college girl in this respect. Inherent in the many curricula is a happy com- �Alumni Bulletin 4 THE UNIVERSITY OF BUFFALO ALUMNI BULLETIN Published monthly except July, August and September by the University of Buffalo at 3435 Main St., Buffalo 14, N.

As women have moved into busines and industry, the woman freshman of 1952 now has many opportunities at one time not open to her. The University in its many efforts to attract young men and women is endeavoring to bring to campus satisfied freshmen who will in turn become satisfied alumni or alumnae; for certainly the University of Buffalo will continue to grow only through the support of the alumni group and especially the alumni families. HAL KUHN GETS GROSSI SPORTS CUP Hal Kuhn, record shattering University of Buffalo basketball captain, was awarded Phi Kappa Psi's Dominic Grossi Trophy, emblematic of athletic supremacy, at the annual Block B banquet held at Hotel Lafayette, May 15th. In lauding Kuhn's outstanding contributions to the University's athletic record, Dr. G. Lester Anderson, Dean of Administration, brought to light that the overall picture of the athletic program at the University is indeed an enviable one. In the post war years, the Blue and White has built up one of the most comprehensive and diverse schedules of intercollegiate athletics in its history and at present is competing in 12 separate sports. In the past 5 years, University teams in these 12 fields have competed 625 times; have won 420, lost 196, and tied 9, for a win percentage of 68.2. Some of these sports are new to the University's athletic program; some are revivals of pre-war scheduling, but all are winning. The stature and diversity of the program is in keeping with the University's athletic policy, and the Block B members typify Dr. Anderson's statement that "the best teaching and the best learning in college today is found on the athletic field". ACES ALL — FRITZ FEBEL IS NEW GRID COACH Fritz Febel, assistant professor of health and physical education, this month was named head coach of football at the University. He succeeds James F. Wilson, LLB'2S, who plans to devote his full time to his law practice. Febel was assistant football coach at the University from 1936 to 1942. During his undergraduate career at Purdue University, he was named to the All America squad as a guard. He holds B.S. and M.P.E. degrees from Purdue and expects to complete his doctorate work at Indiana University this summer. During War II he served as a staff sergeant with the military intelligence division. Coach Febel is a strict fundamentalist and is noted for insistence on physical conditioning of his players. In his initial season as head coach, he and his varsity Bulls face one of the A^k^ toughest schedules ever undertaken by the University whose foes will include Colgate, Lehigh, Bucknell, and Lafayette.

Roberts, DDS'3O, presents plaque symbolizing S. P. Capen Alumni Award to Nelson G. Russell, MD'95, as new alumni president Robert E. Rich, BS(Bus)'3s, looks on. The 13th Annual Meeting of the General Alumni Board was held on Wednesday evening, June 11th, in the Park Lane Restaurant in Buffalo. More than 50 representatives of the divisional alumni associations and the alumni clubs were in attendance. President Myron A. Roberts, DDS'3O, presided and introduced Chancellor T. Raymond McConnell, Treasurer Claude E. Puffer, Dean of Administration G. Lester Anderson, and Development Campaign Chairman Owen B. Augspurger, LLB'3S, all of whom spoke briefly. Chancellor McConnell, principal speaker, expressed the University's gratitude to the graduates for their continued service to and evident interest in their Alma Mater. He also cited the 1,900 alumni who are working in the first phase of the Development Campaign in the Buffalo and Erie County area. One of the highlights of the meeting was the presentation of the Samuel P. Capen Alumni Award. This marked the third time the award, established in 1950, has been given to "an alum- nus who has made notable and meritorious contributions to the University and its alumni family thus influencing other alumni to follow his example". recipients were Dean A. Bertram Lemon, PhG'l3, in 1950, and Previous O'Brian, LLB'9B, in 1951. Russell, MD'95, received the award for 1952. He was cited by G. Thomas Ganim, BS'24, LLB'27, chairman of the award committee, for his service to the University Medical School as a teacher for more than 55 years, for his many offices and services among the alumni organizations, and for his representation of the alumni on the University Council for more than 28 years. The citation concluded with the statement, "He is an international leader in his chosen profession". In accepting the plaque which symbolizes the award, Dr. Russell spoke of the early years of alumni activity and recalled that he was the son of an alumnus of the Medical School and so came to Buffalo "expecting—and finding—an outstanding school". Reports of the vice-presidents for the several areas of alumni activities were given at the meeting. Director of Alumni Relations T. W. Van Arsdale, Jr., BA'3B, MA'4O, also reported on the activities of the Alumni Office. John Lord Nelson "Step 3" begins during the latter part of the summer and continues throughout the fall. In that phase, the alumni of the University will conduct concerted efforts, area by area, throughout the country, and especially in the East, for the Development Campaign. Each city and geographical area with large numbers of alumni will be the subject of specialized campaigns so that every alumnus will have an opportunity to participate in the Campaign.

His message stressed that modern universities must produce "liberally-educated men and women on whom the future of a free society depends". He also warned against "strong influences toward premature or excessive specialization" which, he said, face American liberal arts colleges and professional schools. The Chancellor stated that a "breadth of view and sense of reason and proportion" are necessary in all forms of professional education. In order to attain this breadth, Dr. McConnell found that "there must be a Principals at the cornerstone ceremony at tbe new Medical-Dental Building on closer alliance among scholars in the campus included, left to right, Council President Seymour H.

The picture above is perhaps symbolic because, represented by these four men, are the principal groups interested in and participating in the University's current Development Campaign. Former alumni president G. Thomas Ganim is chairman of the Alumni Participation Committee for the Campaign. As such, he represents the alumni of all the University's schools. Mr. Augspurger, as general chairman of the Campaign, represents all phases of community, parents, friends, corporations, and aiumni interest in the success of the Campaign. The Chancellor, of course, represents the University's vital faculty and student interest. And Mr. Osborn, vicechairman of the University Council, with Mr. Seymour H. Knox, chairman, attests the abiding faith of the University's governing body in the mission and future of the University of Buffalo. Occasion for the picture was the luncheon given for alumni club representatives on Saturday, October 4th, in Norton Hall on campus.

In announcing the plans for these area campaigns, Chairman Augspurger declared: "Perhaps few alumni realize it, but the University now serves a national community. It has grown from a University, which formerly sent its graduates largely to Buffalo and its immediate environs, into a University which now counts more than half of its 18,000 alumni as living outside the Western New York area. This means that graduates of its 14 schools are practicing their professions, learned at the University, in every state in the Union and in 12 foreign countries. "In the first phase of the Development Campaign the Buffalo and Erie County phase over two-thirds of our three and one-half million dollar goal has been negotiations with Continuing raised. country — — various contributors, both in corporations and special gifts groups, will substantially raise this figure in the near future. With these pledges to come, and with the generous participation of the alumni in the area campaigns, we can and we will teach our goal of $3,500,-000 plus." — — area campaigns to get underway Pittsburgh and New York City.

"You can't do any business, if you haven't got a band. The crowd expects a big parade, and uniforms so grand ." . Split lips, blisters, eyestrain, ad infinitum are the rewards and, believe it or not, the incentives for most college -■- bandsmen. The others are all conductors and only have to be concerned with headaches, sore arms, and an occasional fit of hysteria. The University Band has had a long and sporadic existence in its effort to live up to our opening quotation. Having been first organized in the early years of the twentieth century, it stands today as a tribute to those many students and faculty members who have devoted thous- ands of hours to insure its permanency on campus. Many editions of the band have existed since the University's founding. First of these was a small group gathered together under the leadership of Dr. Abraham Hoffman of the Dental School faculty in 1917-1918. Dean A. Bertram Lemon of the School of Pharmacy organized, managed and directed what has become known as our first combined marching and concert band in 1920. Many a former bandsman experienced the thrill of a ride in "Doc" Lemon's "musical" Ford of those roaring twenties. It was a fortunate musician who found room to squeeze in between the tubas, bass drum and band equipment. The usual route was from the Dental Building storeroom to the concert or game lo- cation and police escorts were not prominent in those days. Travelling today at a much more conservative rate and with a lighter cargo, the good dean is frequently reminded by his hundreds of friends of his many years of band work with the student group. Ever present somewhere in the vicinity of the fifty yard line at drill rehearsals, Dean Lemon has many a chuckle when he recalls the first Varsity Band uniforms which consisted of white pants, blue sweaters, and knit tassel caps. They each have contributed a priceless background of experience for our present marching and concert group, which is the official marching and academic training unit. Academic credit, now granted, is based on the successful completion of at least one year's participation on the part of each member. ( �3 Instrumental in the early growth and success of the band were such veteran organizers as Dean Bertram Lemon, Mr. ' It was a cold Fall afternoon in 1946 that found Gerry Marx, BAMS, and six musicians in the music room of Hayes Hail, doing their best to perform a few Sousa marches. The favorable (?) attention resulting from their efforts could be attributed to the open window, and soon there were students waiting to be signed up. All three of them were quickly initiated and soon all hands were organizing a recruiting campaign destined to advance the membership to the sixties. Wallace A. VanLier, Jim Peele, and Dottie Haas. AH had seen previous bands come and go and were as determined as the students that this new group should be a permanent segment of the athletic and cultural "life" of the University. In two years' time, the reorganized band raised enough money through selfpromotion work to support the team at all home contests as well at several outof-town games. Since 1946, several sets of uniforms have been used, but none have been so impressive as that of the Air Force ROTC unit now sponsoring the marching band. The introduction of the ROTC program on campus meant the realization of the long-needed instrumentation program. Very few students or alumni have perhaps been aware of the dual purpose of the band. The most prevalent mental picture has the files of marching men busily performing at the half-time foot- ball shows and the cadet reviews. At least once a year, the bandsmen show the results of long and arduous study in their performance of works on the concert stage. These selections range from the classics to jazz and modern stylings interspersed with marches from almost every country on the globe. Present director of the concert and marching band is John Krestic, noted Western New York band director. His right hand man in the drilling department is M/Sgt. Willis Leach of the Air Force ROTC Unit who spends long hours perfecting the miid-pounding routines which have so impressed the football fans during the past few seasons. Maintaining the basic philosophy of the seven Marxmen reorganizes, the band is still student-managed, thereby affording the student an opportunity to develop to the fullest his traits of leadership and social responsibility in his academe life. And if you saw the student band at the UB Colgate game, October 4th, 'nuff said. .. . ...- THE 1952 MARCHING BAND BAIRD NAMED MUSIC DEP'T. HEAD Cameron Baird, well-known and talented Buffalo musician and member of a prominent family long known for their interest in the University, has been named professor of music and head of the University's music department. Mr. Baird completed his undergraduate study at Williams College in 1926. Since then he has studied extensively in Europe with several famous composers and conductors. He has also taken courses in the University's MHlard Fillmore College. He has been chairman of the Buffalo Philharmonic Orchestra's music committee for many years and plays viola with the orchestra. He has conducted the Buffalo Oratorio since 1930 and the Buffalo Schola Cantorum since 1945. He has also been secretary of the Buffalo Chamber Music Society for many years. That Mr. Baird's appointment signals expansion of the LTniversity's music offerings is evident from Chancellor T. R. McConnell's statement that Mr. Baird "will spend most of his time this year visiting other institutions and studying their music programs so that he can prepare the initial steps to be taken here." �6 Its Not New to the Frosh, BUT To Alumni and Upper-Classmen, Its "Dorms at Last" By February 1, 1953, a little more than months after the ground-breaking ten ceremonies, the new student residences on campus will be ready for occupancy. The residences are located toward the MainBailey end of campus, forming a triangle with Foster and Norton Halls. The two men's units are closer to Foster, the women's unit nearer Norton. The residences have been designed to provide their occupants with the most favorable conditions for study, comfort and recreation. They will house 149 women and 298 men. Before the final plans were drawn up, a joint facultystudent committee made many recommendations on all phases of planning. In addition to two twin-size beds, each room will be equipped with night stands, lounge and desk chairs, and commodious wardrobes. Each unit has a lounge and two large recreation areas. Last July the Alumnae Association of the University sponsored a theater party at the Lake Shore Playhouse, the proceeds to be used towards furnishing the lounge in the women's unit. Other fund raising plans are being made by the Association to complete the furnishings of the lounge. Great interest in the residences is being shown by the student body. Not only are out-of-town students reserving rooms, but also local students who desire the convenience of living on campus, the easy comradeship of dormitory life and the many advantages in personal development in living with a group. The housing program is a function of the Residence Bureau under the Office of the Dean of Students. Miss Dorothy Haas, Director of Norton Union, is acting as supervisor of residences. In each unit a trained resident counselor, together with his or her staff, will be ready to assist students with their social and personal problems, as well as in their dormitory and University activities. Residents will share in the supervision of dormitory life through student government. The fee for room and board for the first semester has been set at #325.00. Students will have their meals in Norton ... Hall, and it is expected that the expansion of the cafeteria will be completed for the fall semester of 1953. Assistant to Dean by Renee hen of Administration FRESHMEN SAY THEY WANT "CAL" The 1200 freshmen reporting to cammonth got "oriented" in a hurry. A three-day session under the direction of Acting Dean of Students Jack M. Deeringer and a student committee soon made the newcomers "at home" and hep to the ways and means of getting along at the University. So well were they a part of college life early in their sessions that they held their own "open house" in Norton Hall. Theme of the party harked back to the days of their dads and moms for it was, of all things, "The Roarin' Twenties", complete with swinging doors, singing waiters, racoon coats, and "Vote for Cal Coolidge" posters. pus last �5 Faculty You'll Remember: Roger S. Hubbard Professor of Pharmacology School of Medicine He didn't build a better mouse trap nevertheless, a well worn path V^ beaten by friends, intelligentsia, students, and associates leads to the doorway of Roger S. Hubbard, A.8., A.M., Ph.D., professor and head of the Department of Pharmacology and professor of applied physiology in the University's Medical School. This strange, warm, §_m but, - tremendously popular professor typifies for many the ultimate in the teaching profession. When Dr. Hubbard displayed unusual intelligence early in his educational training, his father, determined to have no intellectual freaks in the family, decided to expose the future professor and his brother to four years training in mechanical arts prior to his classical high school education. By his own words, this exposure has had little evidence of taking; and the students who have observed his blackboard symbols will readily agree. With seven years of high school behind him, he enrolled at Harvard in 1907 at the age of 19, graduated with an A.B. in Phi Beta 1911 and an A.M. in 1913 Kappa throughout. The ensuing years were spent as assistants in chemistry and biological chemistry at the Harvard Medical School and as an instructor in — # biochemistry at Washington University in St. Louis. After a hitch as an assistant in the War Demonstration Hospital in World War I as "one of the few not to be commissioned", Dr. Hubbard returned to Washington University to receive his Ph.D., the conclusion of the research for which he blushingly admits has since been completely disproved. Nine years later, in 1930, he was appointed assistant professor in physiology at the University of Buffalo. Sought after socially and professionally by the young and old of the medical profession, he is a completely diverting and delightful companion as, of an evening, surrounded by his friends, he charmingly recounts semi-classical art works such as "How the Camel Got His Hump", from a seemingly unending source. His profound thinking and complete preoccupation result in actions which are indeed amusing to all who know him and especially funny later to Dr. Hubbard himself. His favorite pastime is participating in a license number game: his own creation which according to him is closely associated with the "obnoxious numbers game". He studies automobile license numbers constantly in search of unusual combinations. This was all well and good until the middle '40's when New York State eliminated the front license plate, and necessitated Dr. Hubbard's walking backward to and from work in order to pursue his hobby. Another amusing anecdote which he readily recounts has to do with the time he was quoted in the New York Times some years ago. Upon returning from the International Physiological Congress meeting in Edinburgh where he was inspired by Pavlov's lecture on "acquired characteristics are inheritable" and the results of that eminent scholar's experiments with rats, Dr. Hubbard sat for a press interview on the findings of the Congress and the following day found emblazoned in the "Times" a headline stating, "Hubbard Says Rats Ring Dinner BeU". In class, his lectures are delivered with a superb vocabulary, a New England accent, an intense feeling, punctuated by grunts and facial expressions for emphasis. His ability to present the most profound and complicated cases in a manner thoroughly understandable to students places him on a plane of his own, and his broad education outside the field of pharmacology makes him much sought after in all specialized fields. Sweet, loyal, intellectually honest, yet unusual, preoccupied, a conformist in society but not in dress or mannerism Dr. Hubbard epitomizes the "college professor" in many ways. As one of the most eminent applied physiologists in the field of education, he is an outstanding example of the caliber of the faculty of the University of Buffalo. strange, — �ALUMNI AND THEIR GUESTS ENJOY 27th ANNUAL HOMECOMING 1.

For the alumni October 4th was one of the busiest days of the year as they enjoyed a day's program from 10 A.M. 'til the wee small hours. Representatives of area alumni clubs opened the day's activities with a ten o'clock meeting with the General Alumni Board Executive Committee in Chancellor McConnell's office. Entertained at a dinner by the Alumni Board in the La Marque Restaurant, these same representatives then joined a crowd of more than 11,000 alumni and friends as the U.B. BuUs all but subdued the Colgate Red Raiders in a thrillpacked footbaU spectacle. The Bulls, underdogs in pre-game predictions by 6 to 10 touchdowns, displayed such courage, drive, stamina and just plain intestinal fortitude, tha: they held the vaunted "Raiders," victors over Cornell the previous weekend, to a scant 13 to 0 victory, and incidentally won the plaudits of the entire throng in an impressive standing ovation at the final gun. The annual post game party in the Niagara Room of Hotel Statler attracted more than alumni who continued in the festive spirit until well after mid300 night. Harold H. Johnson, BS (Bus) '43, Alumni Homecoming Chairman for the second year, again counted the day as overwhelmingly successful. Assisting Mr. Johnson were these committee members: Robert E.

Given under the sponsorship of the School of Medicine and the University's Chronic Disease Research Institute, the proMiss Heap gram is designed to meet the great need for physical therapists locally and elsewhere. In announcing the establishment of the program, Chancellor T. R. McConnell declared, "Functional rehabilitation of persons disabled by disease or injury is an increasingly important adjunct of the medical profession. Success in this type of treatment is dependent not only upon a basic knowledge of the normal and abnormal functions of the human body, but also upon the vitally important team concept for the best interest of the patient. "In this respect, the cooperation of the Medical School and the Chronic Disease Research Institute, as well as the campus divisions of the University, will provide a firm foundation for the program in Here is a man whobelieves he has a responsibility in the mission of independent institutions serving the community in which he resides! Frederick W. Reinhold, a resident of Snyder, N. V., and president of Anchor Mr. Reinkold Concrete Products Inc., in Buffalo, gathered a few friends at a quiet luncheon one day last June in the Buffalo Athletic Club. After the entree, he told his friends that he had made an important decision which he wanted them to know about. During the last several years he had taken out some $75,000 in life insurance policies and lately he had connected these policies in his thinking with a deep conviction that all of us have a responsibility to the institutions which serve the com- tirements were announced this summer. The three are: Dr. Albert P. Sy, PhD'oB, a member of the chemistry department faculty Sy. 'OS for 57 years; Dr. E. Raymond Reigel, also a professor of chemistry for 32 years; and Dr. Theodore B. Hewitt, who has been teaching German in the College of Arts & Sciences for 29 years. All three were honored recently at a special dinner in their honor where Chancellor T. R. McConnell paid tribute to their valuable contributions, culturally and professionally, to the community and to the University. Dr. McConnell also announced that each of the professors has been named professor-emeritus in his field. Grants & Gifts Listed in the will of the late John L. Osgood was a bequest of $22,500 to be used by the City of Buffalo for a memorial arch or fountain. A motion by Councilman Leeland N. Jones, BA '48, that the money be refused by the city, automatically gave the money to the University for "general educational purposes" in accordance with further terms of the will. A federal grant of $5,450 under the National Mental Health Law will enable the University's School of Social Work to inaugurate a graduate course in "Psychiatric Social Work Relating to Persons Living in the Community". Fifty technical books describing arc welding have been presented to the School of Engineering Library by the John F. Lincoln Arc Welding Foundation from its library in Cleveland. Chancellor T. Raymond McConnell recently accepted a collection of 22 authentic reproductions of American historical documents known as The Freedom Shrine, at ceremonies in Clark Memorial Gymnasium. Presentation by the Exchange Club of Buffalo was conducted by Whitney Gilbert, LLB'2B. The sum of $5,000 was provided for the University Medical School to be put to the most "advantageous use" in the will of Dr. John G. Fernbach, MD'l5. physical therapy". A four year program will lead to the bachelor of science degree with a major in physical therapy. A twelve-months' course will lead to the certificate of proficiency in physical therapy. The latter will be offered only to students of advanced standing. Named technical director of the program is Miss Mildred F. Heap who has been technical director of the School of Physical Therapy of the Cleveland Clinic for the last two years. Prior to that, she was assistant director of the School of Physical Therapy at the Medical College of Virginia. She is a graduate of Ohio State University and holds a master's degree in physical therapy from the Medical College of Virginia.

The fact that alumni in Buffalo and Erie County7 had raised much of the $2,500,000 pledged in that area proved an incentive to their fellow alumni in the first outlying area campaigns. According to Owen B. Augspurger, LLB'3S, the Campaign's general chairman, "Alumni of the University perhaps seldom realize that half of their 18,000 members live beyond the Erie County area. Ifthose alumni duplicate the efforts of their fellow-graduates locally, the Campaign is assured of success in reaching its goal of $3,500,000 plus." Heading the Pittsburgh area campaign is Charles J. Barone, MD'l5. He is assisted by Lucille Spitzer Goldring, Aex'4o, as co-chairman. Harry W. Woolhandler, MD'37, heads the Medical Division; Donald W. Davidson, DDS'4B, is chairman for the Dental Division; and Mrs. Goldring heads the General Division.

Honor Society Named For Browning, '38 FINGER LAKES ALUMNI ORGANIZE The University of Buffalo chapter of the Arnold Air Society, an honorary society for advanced Air Force R.O.T.C. cadets, will receive its national charter late this month and will be named the "Richard C. Browning Squadron", memorializing one of the War II Gold Star alumni of the Browning, '38 University. Membership in this honorary society requires of a cadet that he be fully enrolled in the advanced R.O.T.C. course and that he be exemplary of the standards of an outstanding cadet. Fif- teen charter members will be initiated at the installation ceremonies. In selecting the name and example of Richard C. Browning, BS((Bus)'38, the Air Force Society brings both honor and challenge to its membership now and in the future.

NURSING ALUMNAE MEET JAN. 26TH The University of Buffalo School of Nursing Alumnae Association held a dinner meeting on November 17, 1952, at P. M. at the Hotel Markeen. The guest speaker was Dr. Samuel Sanes, MD'3O, president of the Erie County Medical Society, who discussed "Flowers in Medicine". Colored slides were also shown. The next regular meeting will be on January 26, 1953, at the La Marque Restaurant at 6:30 P. M. Present officers of the Nursing Alumnae Association are: Miss Julia M. Oscadel, BS(Nrs)'46, president; Miss Elizabeth Shisler, BS(Nrs)'49, first vice-president; Miss Irene Mahar, BS(Nrs)'sO, second vice-president; Miss Myrtle J.

Some forty alumni present were brought up to date on University happenings, progress, and plans by guest speaker Dr. Claude E. Puffer, Treasurer and Comptroller. Elected to office for the coming year were: Philip Serling, LLB'27, president; Emil J. Bove, MD'34, vice-president; Glen C. Hatch, MD'2B, secretary; and J. Sidney Rose, DDS'37, treasurer. Homer J. Knickerbacker, PhG'9s, MD'9B, will act as representative to the General Alumni Board. Alumnae Fashion Show ELMIRA CLUB ELECTS WELD, '27 years. Plans are already being formulated for the fourth annual Alumnae Luncheon and Fashion Show which will be held on Saturday, March 7, 1952, in the Main Ballroom of the Hotel Statler. Virginia M. Ross, BS(Bus)'49, General Chairman, has announced that the show will be presented by Evelin's Delaware Shop and Siegel's Millinery Store. Although the theme has not been disclosed, the committee promises many surprises and a program of fashion and entertainment which will be bigger and better than ever before in the history of this, the Alumnae Association's lar yearly event. most popu- Wednesday, November 19th, marked the second annual meeting of the reorganized Southern Tier Alumni Club. The dinner meeting, attended by more than sixty alumni of the Elmira area, was held in the Showboat Room of the Mark Twain Hotel and was preceded by a half hour "re-acquaintance period." Dean Paul E. Mohn, of the Engineering School, brought the audience up-to-date on the development of the campus in the post-war years. Elected to office for the coming year were: Stanley E. Weld, PhG'27, president; Dorothy Horwitz Jacobson, BA'43, vicepresident; Donald Miller, DDS'22, secretary; Gerald Connelly, MD'3l, treasurer. Appointed as a committee for the new Elmira Scholarship Fund were: Daniel F. O'Neil, DDS'23, Earle G. Ridall, BA'3l, MD'34, W. Ford Palmer, PhG'27, and Dorothy M. McCabe, BS(Bus)'37, EdM'39- �6 Grant Awarded for Anticipatory-Exam Program Evaluation The University has been awarded a 59300 grant by the Carnegie Corporation for a study of its anticipatoryexamination program. Dr. Edward S. Jones, University's director of personnel research, will supervise the study. Chancellor McConnell, in announcing the grant, pointed out that the anticipatory-examination program was started in 1931 at the University as part of a broader study to investigate Dr. Jones the articulation between high school and college. CORNERSTONE LAID FOR 3 NEW DORMS It was a brief ceremony, but to the many students, University Council members, faculty, and alumni representatives it marked the realization of a long-cherished ambition. The occasion was the cornerstone laying of the first three student residences to be erected on the campus. Richard M. Drake, Jr., co-chairman of the student residence committee, presided at the ceremonies at noon, November sth. Speaking during the program, Chancellor T. R. McConnell stated, "These dormitories will inaugurate a new era in the University's history. We have always been an essentially urban university, but that is no reason that we cannot be a residential university for the great number of our students who come from far and near to take advantage of the University's extensive and excellent educational offerings." Dr. McConnell emphasized that the new I buildings are intended to be "residences, not mere dormitories". Karr Parker, chairman of the University Council's Buildings & Grounds Com- mittee, stated that the three residence units, scheduled for occupancy on February Ist, might soon be followed by one or more of a similar size and a double unit which would include dining facilities. Also speaking during the program were: Seymour H. Knox, Chairman of the University Council; James R. Buckley, president of the Student Board of Managers; and Miss Ann J. Schoepflin, chairman of the Girls' Student Residence Committee. The University's Marching Band provided the musical program for the ceremony. "Through anticipatory examinations", he said, "the superior student, who usually has extra credits from high school, can, with some additional study and tutoring, establish college credits. This allows more time for advanced or graduate study. "A study recently completed by Dr. Maine Wagner, formerly assistant dean of students, showed thai since die plan's inauguration, more than 1500 examinations have been given, and more than "5^ of these able students qualified for college credits. A number of students have saved more than a full semester in college, and a few have saved a full year. "VTe believe that a thorough survey of the practices here for the past 20 years will give needed information regarding the problems and values of this program. It can be expanded into a more-generalized examining plan for returning veterans and other mature people who wish to study on their own but who would appreciate the endorsement of a university through its credit. "In the new project we hope to ascertain several things: Not only the benefits derived by students, but the possible difficulties in attitudes of college and high school teachers, the kind of publicity that is desirable, and the best types of syllabi students can use to prepare for these examinations." Gehman Appointed Acting Graduate Dean Appointment of Dr. Harry M. Gehrran as acting dean of the Graduate School of Arts & Sciences was announced last rronth by Chancellor T. R. McConnell. Dr. Gehman, chairman of the department of mathematics, has been a member of the University faculty since 1929. He is a director of the mathematics division of the American Society for Engineering Education and is secretary of the American Mathematics Association whose offices have been located at the University for several years.

Robert Riegel, born in Philadelphia, Pa., is a one-in-a-million personality whose boundless energy has been characterized not only in fact, but in almost legendary yarns concerning his life as scholar, athlete, humorist, author, musician, friend, and family man. At the age of twenty-two, he already had acquired a Bachelor of Science degree in Economics and a Master of Arts, both bestowed by the University of Pennsylvania which shortly thereafter awarded him the coveted PhD. From 1910, the year he received his bachelor's degree, until 1917, he was an instructor at the University of Pennsylvania, after which came twelve years as Assistant Professor of Insurance and Statistics at the same institution. The facts speak for themselves when one notes that he had held positions of great responsibility in both education and government activities before the doctorate was achieved, among them the duties of Assistant Expert, Investigation of Steamship Combinations, U. S. House of Representatives, 1912-14. Appointed as a Special Expert for Shippers in the "15% Case of the 1.C.C.," in 1915, Dr. Riegel also spent time as Statistical Advisor to the Quartermaster Corps, U. S. Army, and Instructor of Insurance in the Naval Officer's Training School during World War I. Sought after by insurance executives and statisticians from near and far, Dr. Riegel has written more than a half-dozen books relative to statistical analysis and casualty, fire, and life insurance. Published articles of this widely-acclaimed scholar number in the forties, many of them stemming from his experience as Director of the Bureau of Business and Social Research at the University of Buffalo. Following Dr. Riegel on his tours of the campus is a task worthy of a track star in top condition, inasmuch as he currently holds positions as member of the Committee on Athletic Policy (since 1948); member of the Executive Committee, School of Business Administration (since 1947); President, University Chapter, American Association of University Professors; and President of Beta Gamma Sigma Honorary Fraternity, University Chapter (since 1932). His memberships in learned societies and associations throughout his academic career attest to the keen, analytical thought processes which have, time and again, been a source of astonishment to his colleagues and students. A few of the societies, chosen from a list of many, include the American Statistical Association, American Economic Association, Deutscher Verein fur Versicherunds-Wissenschaft, American Association of University Teachers of Insurance (of which Dr. Riegel was president in 19 39), and Research Advisory Council— National Association of Credit Men. In addition to participation in these groups, he has been a Fellow of the Casualty Actuarial Society since 1921. Most University alumni still picture "Bob" Riegel as the cigar-smoking tennis coach and promoter of the early thirties. Research by the athletic department indicates that Dr. Riegel was the first tennis coach to appear at this institution. Visitors to his present office in Crosby Hall are likely to see the candid photos of racqueteer Riegel giving his all in what was billed as the first man vs. machine tennis match. The machine, capable of returning balls in five different ways, was the forerunner of today's pitching machines of the big-league baseball teams. Incidentally .. Machine 6—Riegel 0. Although he engaged in some high school basketball games, Dr. Riegel, lacking what was considered adequate weight and height, limited his collegiate athletics at Pennsylvania to an extremely short term as coxswain of the Freshman crew. His downfall in that department seems to have been prompted by the desire to equip his frosh crew with the best oars in the boathouse. Trouble was, they were the varsity competition oars. Everything would have indicated a sure win for coxswain Riegel and his crew, except for the fact that he misjudged his course under the short-cut arch of a bridge spanning the course. Crewmen agreed the oars were just what the doctor ordered until they scraped the stone bridgework. This could well have been the start of Dr. Riegel's interest in the field of probabilities. Still an active participant in tennis on the University courts, he also uses the Clark Gymnasium pool about twice a week. It is claimed by members of the . athletic staff that the professor's yearround conditioning program is aimed at maintaining his record of having consistently out-kicked all varsity football players of the past 18 years. Actual statistician in the date and anniversary department of the Riegel household is the Professor's charming wife, widely admired by students and faculty. Seldom it is that Dr. and Mrs. Riegel miss a home basketball game or, for that matter, any athletic competition of the various teams. Married while teaching at the University of Pennsylvania, they are now the proud grandparents of Robert Williams, son of Mr. Arthur Williams and Roberta Riegel Williams, who, incidentally, met at the University of Buffalo. Mozart and Bach have had their place in the Riegel home when many an evening has been spent with a quintet featuring Professors Farber, Cantor, and Riegel with violins and clarinet respectively. Having performed with fraternal bands and orchestras in years past, Dr. Riegel enjoys an occasional turn at the clarinet. His widespread fame as toastmaster for business and alumni functions results in a steady flow of invitations, the acceptance of which assures the audience of a timely subject well presented with just the right amount of wit and humor at just the right time. A sartorial perfectionist whose bow ties and Beta Gamma Sigma key are as familiar to this "in-steee-tu-tion" as are his traits of intellectual curiosity and forthrightness, Dr. Robert Riegel is a man of whom the University can well be proud. As they say in athletics, "He's the star of anybody's team, but always a team man." �8 -3n en uit if Lin llmItea; The Physics Department In this age, when science is so basic to an understanding of the world about us, it is little wonder that physics has assumed a new and evidently enduring importance. Think of atomic matters, of electronics, of aeronautics—think of any of these and their allied fields, and an understanding of physics is basic to an understanding of all of them. The result has been an increase in inand investment devoted to physics in even- progressive institution of higher learning in the country. At the University of Buffalo, especially since the War, the Physics Department has increased materially in importance and size. Before the War, enrollment in elementary courses in physics averaged 100 students; now the number is closer to 300. In the intermediate courses, the average used to be 8 to 10 students and it is now 25 to 30. The graduate students used to number 4 or 5 but now there are 35 to 40 taking graduate courses. In the past five years alone, the Physics Department has graduated 56 with B. A. degrees, 8 with M. A. degrees, and 2 with doctor of philosophy degrees. Of the 56 B. A. graduates, 38 have gone on to do further graduate work, 30 as graduate assistants or research assistants at Buffalo, Yale, Cornell, Illinois, Dartmouth, Texas, Florida, and other institutions. Of these, 10 have already completed work for the master of arts, 5 have their doctor of philosophy, and 8 more will have that doctor's degree by June of 1954. 27 of these graduates are now working in industrial or government research laboratories, and 5 of them occupy positions of high responsibility. Of the remainder, 3 are in medical school, one is a science writer, 3 are teaching, 2 of them in universities. Increase in student enrollment inevitably means increase in staff. Old-timers remember when there were 3 full-time instructors and about the same number of terest graduate assistants. Now there are 7 fulltime teachers and at least 15 graduate assistants. Of course, shop and attendant personnel have had to be increased, too. This growth in the Physics Department at the University has resulted from factors in addition to the national interest and investment in the basic sciences. First, the over-all enrollment of the College of Arts & Sciences has more than doubled in the last decade. Then, too, the establishment of the School of Engineering has meant that the sophomore from that School must take the elementary physics course. A decided factor also has been the development of the graduate program leading to the doctor of philosophy degree in physics. Each and every one of these factors has placed an increased burden on the Physics Department. The manner in which the Department has met the new and greater physical demands made upon it makes for an interesting story in itself. Literally every inch of the present Science Building has been given over to the physics program. In fact, ceilings have been raised in certain sections, classrooms have been created from small vacant spaces, an inexpensive makeshift "wing" has been angled off the rear. As the press for space and facilities grew, the power plant was turned over to research labs, while elementary labs and some research were moved into the emergency "wing". Editor's Note: Dr. Lyle W. Phillips, Chairman of the terial for this article. The crucial needs of bis department, plus the classroom space needed by other departments, have made a new Physics and Classroom Building one of the primary objectives in the University's current Development Campaign for $3,500,000 plus. Graphic presentation of the Physics Department's situation follows in a picture story on pages 8 and 9. Department of Physics, supplied the ma- Just as the facilities have been adapted the new demands on this basic science, so also have the curricula. All students majoring in the undergraduate curriculum now take—in addition to advanced courses in mechanics, electrical measurements, electricity and magnetism, light, and either modern physics or thermodynamics and kinetic theory —a course in laboratory techniques (machine shop, glass blowing, and vacuum systems) and an advanced laboratory course in which they repeat some of the classical experiments in physics: measurements of electronic charge, ratio of charge to mass for electrons, nuclear experiments, electron diffraction, and similar to meet experiments. Research activities of the staff and the graduate students are principally in the fields of spectroscopy, nuclear physics, and the physics of carbons. Spectroscopy research involves studies of the hyperfine structure, isotype shifts, and forbidden lenses in atomic spectra; molecular spectra and fluorescence; and infra-red spectroscopy. Research in nuclear physics centers on cloud chamber studies of proton scattering, and a group of problems are presently getting under way in measurements of disintegration constants and energies for natural and artificial radioactive elements. For the latter measurements, both beta-ray spectrograph and alpha-particle spectrograph are planned for the near future. The physics of carbons is a field toward which the Department has devoted its major resources in the last three years. Studies are presently being made of the various mechanical, thermal, and electrical properties of graphite and of carbons. These properties are being correlated with crystallite sizes in carbons. The experiments are designed partly with a view to testing a new theory of the structure of carbons developed by Dr. Stanislaus Mrozowski, who is in charge of the carbon program. This work will �be continued and greatly expanded with the support recently received from the Office of Naval Research. Additional research is currently being carried on in optical and mechanical properties of metallic films, heat transfer, and theoretical research on problems connected with spectroscopy and carbon physics. And what of the immediate future? Despite the increased space already allocated to physics, the Department finds itself almost impossibly crowded. Almost all of the nuclear work is crammed into one narrow room provided by a small, emergency addition to the building built over the old heating tunnel. Spectroscopy is crowded into four small rooms in the basement; the carbon physics group occupies several small cubicles built into the old elementary laboratories (which are shared with the photography course), some space behind the new elementary laboratories in the Engineering Building, and space in the heating plant which houses the new high temperature graphitizer. Part of the electrical measurements laboratory, already crowded as it was, has been temporarily walled off to provide a room for the helium liquefier now under construction. Space must be found soon for some major pieces of carbon processing equipment—grinders, sifters, mixers, and ex- truders. The administration of the University and the College of Arts & Sciences has indeed cooperated with the Physics Department in providing the needs in excellent equipment which makes possible the maintenance of adequate tools for research and teaching. Further, every ingenuity has been exercised to make the most of the FRESHMEN HOSTS FRENCH PROFESSOR TO THEIR FOLKS COMPARES EDUCATION The second annual Freshman-Parents' Night at the University was held after the Alfred football game. A buffet supper was served in Norton Hall, after which the freshmen and their parents attended a convocation in Clark Memorial Gymnasium. Speakers there included Chancellor T. R. McConnell and James Buckley, president of the Student Board of Managers. The students then accompanied their parents to meetings with the deans of the respective schools and colleges. Later, a variety show and social hour was held in Norton Hall. During the latter hour, the parents had opportunities to meet and talk with their youngsters' professors and instructors. Dr. Jacques-Henry Bornecque, professor of modern literature at the University of Caen in France, is presently teaching in the University's College of Arts & Sciences as visiting professor of French. Campus faculty and students have found his remarks comparing the American and French concepts of college education especially interesting. Dr. Bornecque finds that the French system emphasizes more the meditative aspect, particularly for faculty members. "French professors have time to think and write on their own because they spend less time in the classroom than the American professors", explained Dr. Bor- Dental Scholarship The University has received a fund of 520.000 to establish a S5OO-a-year scholarship in the School of Dentistry. The grant was contained in the will of the late Mrs. Ethel B. Lasher of Carthage, N. Y., widow of Carl W. Lasher, DDS'll. It will be known as the Carl W. Lasher Scholarship Fund. necque. "And the French educational system is very different from the American", said the visiting professor. "A higher percentage of Americans attend colleges and universities. French university entrance examinations are much more difficult than here. As a result, we get fewer students. And yet, a French student pays only $40 to $50 tuition a year. "The academic selection is much more intense in France and we generally get good students who go to a university with a definite purpose in mind. Our university academic life is very informal. Students are not required to attend lectures and sometimes I have students at my home for discussions." Dr. Bornecque follows a group of distinguished predecessors to the University for it has been the custom of the College of Arts & Sciences to bring a visiting professor from France each year during the first semester. THE PRESENT SCIENCE BUILDING present physical structures. The increasing enrollments, the new and apparently increasing emphasis on physics as a basic science, and the necessity of study in the field to the further studies in the medical, dental, chemical, engineering, and allied fields, highlight the urgent need for a classroom and laboratory building on the campus at this time. A building has been drawn up in plans which will meet the needs of the Physics Department and offer much-needed space as well to other departments for classroom teaching. Such a building will cost approximately one million dollars and it has been made one of the primary aims of the University's current Development Campaign. If the University is to maintain and extend the distinguished teaching and research in this basic science department, it must find the space for these activities. "Every ingenuity has been exercised ..." 9 �THE PHYSICS DEPARTMENT STORY IN PICTURES Congestion and many partitions in the present Physics Building are in evidence in (his picture J.

In one generation our folklore pictured him as a well-bred snob and her as an intellectual Feminist; after the first World War he used to wear a raccoon coat and drive a Stutz Bearcat, and she rolled her stockings and let her overshoes flap; in the thirties he was a wild-eyed radical and she his free-thinking partner; and then the G. I. Bill brought him back to college wearing his suntans, while she, like as not, was his hardworking GI bride, mixing domesticity with the Vale of Academe. But that large and important segment of our population—the 6 million graduates of our 1,300 institutions of higher learning, each one an individual—obviously cannot be typed so easily. The nearest anyone has come to a composite portrait is a survey, recently completed by Time Magazine and just published by Harcourt, Brace & Co. (They Went to College by Ernest Havemann and Patricia Salter West). This book dissects and analyzes a considerable sampling of this significant stratum of American society and discusses what it is and how it behaves. The composite picture looks something like this: the college graduate is most likely to be a married businessman about 37 years old, with at least one child, a home-owner in a city or town in the East or the Midwest. He may very well come from a college family; he more than likely worked his way through college, in whole or in part; and whatever else he may be, he is pretty well off in comparison with the rest of his fellow countrymen. He's very conservative in his political opinions; he believes firmly in American participation in world affairs; he's tolerant on racial and religious issues; he's a Protestant and thinks that religion has something to offer this materialistic age; he claims to go to church fairly regularly. He normally votes Republican but has a tendency toward political independence. If he had to do it over again, he would go back to the same college from which he graduated and his only change of mind about the place would probably be in the courses he took. Our composite portrait turned out to be male because there are more of him. If the subject were female, she would, it is pleasant to report, be a full-time housewife with many of the same social characteristics as her male counterpart. She's doing very well at marriage; she's a regular participant in civic and social ac- tivities; she exercises her vote at the polls and is having just as full an intellectual life as the college career woman, and presumably a considerably richer life than the non-college woman. The Graduate Dissected But, of course, a composite portrait only shows the man or the woman of whom there are more than any other type in the college graduate population. In a crowd of 6 million people there are 6 million individuals. Now that a college degree has become commonplace, the college graduates constitute an important bloc of American public opinion and occupy a significant place in American society. Just what are these college graduates? What has college done to them? And was college worthwhile for them ? Ernest Havemann, the author of the survey, begins with five statistically significant generalizations about college graduates—both male and female: (1) There are many more young people than old in the graduate population. Three out of every five college graduates is in the twenties or thirties, and the median age is 36.9 years. Less than one out of five is past fifty; and only slightly more than one out of five is in the forties. Only fifteen out of every thousand received their degrees before 1900. (2) Just about three out of every five college graduates are men. Are the William Bentinck-Smith is editor of the Harvard Alumni Review. Time's study began as a reader survey, for 77 percent of the readers of Time are collegetrained. The inquiry resembled very closely the 1940 survey sponsored by Time, the results of which were published in 1941 (The U. S. College Graduate by F. Lawrence Babcock). The statistics for the current study were assembled under the direction of Dr. Robert K. Merton of the Bureau of Applied Social Research at Columbia University. The project was undertaken by Patricia Salter West for a Columbia doctorate and involved two years' work correlating 90.640 IBM cards. A total of 1,229 degreegranting institutions were asked to supply lists of all their graduates whose names began with the letters "Fa." Of these institutions 1.037 or 84.4 percent, replied; and from the names thus accumulated was compiled a list of 17,053 American college graduates. Time then sent a thirteen-page questionnaire to each of these individuals, and in two mailings obtained a 59.1 response (a net of 9,064 names, excluding bad addresses). This sampling was tested statistically, and it was felt that it was a fair and workable representation of the total graduate population. Time's experience has been that the same marketing research results come from a sample drawn from a single letter of the alphabet as from a sample based on, say, every fiftieth or hundredth name from an alphabetized listing. women catching up? The picture is distorted of course by the abnormal conditions of the war decade, but there is nothing to indicate the trend is toward a fifty-fifty basis. The only group in which the women are in a majority is among those under thirty. (3) Birthplace seems to play a large in determining the chance to go to college; at least until 1947 it did. About seven in every ten graduates come from one of the 21 states in the East or Midwest and half come from small towns or cities. If a person was born in the South or lives on a farm, the odds against his going to college are great. (4) The chances are very good that a college graduate comes from a college family. A total of 44 percent come from families in which one or both parents are college graduates. Nearly a third of the men graduates come from families in which at least one parent had gone to college (in 11 percent of the cases both parents had gone). Of the women graduates, 16 percent had a mother or father who was college-trained. "Of all the people who want their children to attend college the college graduates seem part to want it the most and to be best able to afford it", writes Mr. Havemann. (5) Contrary to the popular myth, it is the rule rather than the exception to earn your way through college. Only 29 percent of our college graduates have not turned their hands to gainful labor before graduation. The other 71 percent worked their way in whole or in part. More than half held jobs after classroom hours. There are differences between the sexes in this case. More than half the women received their degrees as a result of parental gift, while only one young man in six was completely supported by his parents, and more than one man in three earned at least half his way. "College," comments Mr. Havemann, "has not been nearly so great an expense in terms of parents' savings, or of lost economic contributions, as the folklore would suggest." In terms of worldly success, the male college graduate is very well off. The Time survey disclosed what might have been expected: that the great majority were in the high income levels in the professions and occupied well-paying posts as entrepreneurs, managers, or semiprofessional people. "The college graduate holds the key jobs in our society," Mr. Havemann says. "The non-college man who rises to the top is a relative rarity. On the other hand, it is unusual to find an Old Grad who is not at the top." �13 In 1947, when the median income of American men was $2,200, the college men surveyed had median earnings of $4,689 (median being that point at which half the incomes were above and half below). Even more impressive, the census figure includes interest on savings and income from dividends, etc., but the survey figure does not. The median total family income for the college man was $5,386. Even the "submerged one-quarter"—the 26 percent of the graduates in the less important jobs—were doing better than comparable people in clerical, sales, and manual work throughout America. Almost from the first year on the job, the college man is better off than the average man at the peak of his earning power (a median of $3,537 compared with $2,845 of the American in his late thirties and early forties). What is more, college graduates get wealthier as they grow older and the graduates over fifty are three times better off in terms of earning power than the average man. The financial success of the college men can be judged partly by the jobs they hold: 53 percent are in business; 16 percent are doctors, lawyers, or dentists; 16 percent are teachers; 9 percent are in the Government; 4 percent are ministers; 1 percent are in the arts; and 1 percent are scientists. The big money-earners are the doctors, more than half of whom earned $7,500 or more at the time of the survey. The least prosperous group were the ministers and the teachers; their median of $3,584 was below even the manual class and clerical workers in the college graduate sample. Graduate As Family Man The college man is also a family man. only do college men marry more Not generally than the average American, but they stay married. This fact, Mr. Havemann indicates, should be recommended to young women who are hesitating between a college student and a non-college wage-earner. Time's 1940 survey found only 71 percent of the college graduates married, compared with 76 percent of U. S. males; seven years later, however, the married college men made up 85 percent of the sampling, while the proportion of married American adult males was 81 percent. In addition, 96 percent of the graduates who had married were living with their wives at the time of the survey; in the U. S. as a whole this figure was 89 percent. The college graduate's matrimonial possibilities run in direct proportion to his worldly success. If he earns $7,500 or more, he'll probably get married no matter where he lives, but if he earns less than $3,000 his matrimonial possibilities run in inverse ratio to the size of the town he lives in. The smaller the town in which the less wealthy graduate lives, the more likely he is to marry. "Our graduates are not notably prolific," Mr. Havemann reports. "It is obvious that the vast majority are practicing birth control and that they tend to limit the size of their families by their income and by the size of the town they live in. The average number of children for all our married grads is only two, which is below the average for all mar- ried men in America. But, nevertheless, on every matter, except the production of large families, they are doing quite well." The picture of the woman graduate is not nearly so favorable as that of the man, in both matrimonial situation and earning power, although there are signs that a college career is no longer an "education for spinsterhood." The Time survey revealed that nearly one out of every three women college graduates was unmarried (31 percent to be exact). This figure compares most unfavorably with the 13 percent unmarried among the American women as a whole. Mr. Havemann speculates at some length on this phenomenon and suggests many reasons, among them the theory of Dr. Paul Popenoe, the sociologist, who feels that there is a "widespread tendency of women to seek to marry above their own level, and of men to seek to marry below." Mr. Havemann found that the likelihood of marriage varied among religious groups. Only 23 percent of the Jewish women graduates were unmarried compared with 31 percent among the Protestants and 48 percent among the Catholics. The Time survey also showed that there was a strong correlation between spinsterhood and earning one's own way through college. On the other hand, the figures tend to explode some of the popular opinions about college women, for there was no appreciable difference in marriage-ability among the ones who got very good marks, the all-around girls, or the girls who were "big women on campus." The group that seemed to have the least chance of matrimony were the "girls who just sat there" and got neither very good marks nor participated in campus activities. The graduates of women's colleges reported the largest proportion of unmarried women (47 percent), but in their cases it appeared to �14 women graduates. The college woman's median income is $2,689, compared with the man's 54,689. Two out of every three college career women are earning less than $3,000 a year, compared with \4 percent of the male graduates. There are practically no college women in the high salary brackets. Although the college career women's income is two and a half times better than that of the U. S. working woman, asserts Mr. Havemann, "compared with the Old Grads, they were nowhere." Part of the answer is in the job situation, and Mr. Havemann offers many other possible reasons. The typical college career woman is a teacher (59 percent reported to be in the field of education); only 26 percent are in the business field; and a bare 6 percent are in medicine, law, or dentistry, three of the highest paying professions. It will not help the much-maligned teaching profession in recruiting new adherents from the colleges to learn that the Time survey found "that the student who trains herself to be a teacher is by far the most likely to wind up as a career woman for the rest of her life i.e., as a permanent spinster." In fact, . — remarks Mr. Havemann, "the figures show that there has been as great a correlation between spinsterhood and trainfound .. ing for schoolteaching as between spinsterhood and Catholicism, or spinsterhood and working one's way through school." Those who stick by their careers, however, do pretty well. In the age group over forty, 91 percent had attained positions as executives or professionals, and only 9 percent held rank-and-file jobs. Of this same age group, 47 percent were earning $3,000-4,999, and 8 percent were making 55,000 or better. Alumna and Marriage The statistics show that the former college girl is "doing pretty well at marriage—and, in every respect except the number of children, has a more stable married life than the average woman. Any theoretical fears that college might make a woman unfit for matrimony seem to be thoroughly dispelled by the facts." The married college woman turns out to have just about as much spare time as the career woman. She keeps up with current books and magazines, she belongs to civic and social organizations in slightly fewer numbers, but she is a more regular attendant than her career sister. "All in all," concludes Mr. Havemann, "the college housewife comes off pretty well. The evidence is that the college career woman does not lead nearly as glamorous or influential a life as is sometimes supposed—and that the college housewife, on the matters we have been able to measure, is not nearly so harried in fact as she is sometimes made to appear in fiction." As proof of this generalization, the Time survey disclosed that only one in four graduate housewives and one in five career women had two hours or less leisure on a given weekday. One third of the housewives and the same proportion of the career women reported five or more. The younger housewives were the busiest (27 percent of those in the ... be a matter of age, for there was no significant difference in comparing graduates of women's colleges and graduates of coeducational institutions in the age groups over thirty. "Spinsterhood," writes Mr. Havemann, "is an outstanding characteristic of our women graduates, young as well as old. But our evidence indicates that the trend is away from it. Among our graduates the career woman seems to be giving way to the housewife, slowly but surely." While there are many more old maids in every age group of college graduates than among the population at large, there is a sharp difference in the direction of the trend. Among the general population the direction is downward from 25 percent in the group under thirty, to 11 percent in the thirties, to 8 percent in the group over forty. The college figure drops sharply in the twentythirty age group, rises noticeably in die forties, and then spectacularly among those in the fifties. The older generation of college women "casts her weight on the side of spinsterhood"; today's college woman is a different breed. The Time survey also provides some fascinating material on the old question of marriage versus career. At least half the women, whether married or not, were working. Of the married women 12 percent were full-time housewives; and 19 percent were working wives. The career women (unmarried job-holders) were 31 percent of the sample; and 8 percent were graduate students, widows, retired, or unemployed. The college career woman ranks among the uppercrust in job prestige in over- whelming numbers, the Time survey found. While there are not nearly so many women proprietors, managers, and executives (the proportion was 12 percent, compared with 23 percent for the men), more than two out of three career women are engaged in professional jobs. In the small fry jobs there are nearly as few women as there are men graduates. In the matter of remuneration is found the biggest difference between men and �thirties had five hours free time) but of those in the fifties, 44 percent had five hours or more free time. And what of those who try to mix home and a career? Mr. Havemann develops the hypothesis that "once a working wife, always a working wife." The woman college graduate who has a child early in marriage is unlikely ever to go back to work and, with each succeeding child, the chances of job-holding decrease further. "Motherhood and careers prove to be quite incompatible. Motherhood militates against the career—and the job militates against motherhood In general, and on the basis of what we have measured, it appears that the average graduate who tried to be both wife and career woman is not fully successful either way." How Radical ? One of the most interesting sections of the Time survey is that which attempts to measure the political, social, religious, and educational opinions of the graduate group as a whole. In this analysis of the figures, Mr. Havemann manages to dispel a few more myths, particularly the one about colleges being the seats of radicalism. "It is easy to see how a college could acquire a reputation in the folklore as radical," comments Mr. Havemann. "Indeed it is perhaps a minor miracle that the college has not been the subject of even more widespread and more heated argument. In many ways the campus is the center of American intellectual life, and therefore the center of a kind of mass debate among all kinds of ideas and viewpoints. It is the business of higher education, as a matter of fact, not to bow down before the icons but to examine them, question them, and where necessary destroy them. In this process it is inevitable that occasionally a student taking a course in the history of zoologywill horrify his fundamentalist parents, or that an economics student will lean toward Keynes rather than toward Adam Smith and therefore send his self-made businessman father's blood pressure boiling, or that a young woman intrigued by the behaviorist school of psychology will shock a mother brought up in a view of human nature tending more toward sweetness and light." In the Time survey the subjects were asked to agree or disagree with a number of statements of opinion on a variety of subjects which bore on their political and religious opinions. They were then rated as pro- or anti-New Deal; as internationalist or isolationist; as religious, or uninterested in religion. Political Opinions On the question of the New Deal and its political program, 64 percent were found to be generally in opposition and 36 percent generally in favor. There was, however, a considerable difference in ths reactions of different age groups. Eightypercent of those over fifty were tabbed as anti-New Deal; and this proportion gradually diminished in the younger age group—7l percent of those in their forties, 62 percent of those in their thirties, and 49 percent of those in their twenties. One interesting aspect of this test was the rather significant group of middle-ground graduates —25 percent or more who. .. an independence of political thought. Only 6 percent, however, could be classified as 100 percent New Deal, showed while 37 percent were in 100 percent opposition. "For people considered in the folklore to be suspect of radicalism, our graduates are very conservative folk indeed." On the question of internationalism versus isolationism, the college men and women proved to be firmly on the side of America's participation in the affairs of the world. They were rated as 37 percent internationalist, 40 percent in-between, and 23 percent isolationist. Again there was the question of age. The oldest group was rated 37 percent isolationist, and the proportion was reduced gradually through the age brackets to 34 percent, 29 percent, and finally 24 percent. Somewhat the same proportions could be observed in the question of racial tolerance. Prejudice is not considered respectable among our graduates as a whole, Mr. Havemann indicated, and what respectability it does have is among the older generations. The over-all rating was 38 percent tolerant, 30 percent in-between, and 32 percent prejudiced. The over-fifty group rated 47 percent prejudiced; the youngest group, 24 percent prejudiced. In answer to the statement "Religion to offer intelligent scientific people today," 91 percent of the Catholics, 84 percent of the Protestants, and 56 percent of the Jews disagreed. Churchgoing, as might be expected, was most prevalent among the Catholics; four out of five Catholic men and nine out of ten Catholic women attended every week or nearly every week. For the Protestants, it was seven out of ten men and four out of five women. Nearly half the Jews never attended, and one out of eight rarely at- has little tended. 15 �16 How About Grades? Here are some other general conclusions reached by Mr. Havemann: The higher the grades you get in college, the most satisfied you are likely to be with your college career. The number and intensity of the extracurricular activities you engage in do not seem to have any effect on your later satisfaction or dissatisfaction with your alma mater. Your choice of a college—large or small —depends largely on your own likings and your personality. No matter what college you select, large or small, rich or poor, the chances are at least three to one that you will be glad you chose it. The boy who works his way through college makes relatively less money than the boy from the richer family. Once you go to college, the statistics show, the chances are almost even that you will never settle down in your old neighborhood among your old friends— but that you will wind up living and working in quite different climes. It is hard to keep the college man or woman down on the farm or to attract them there. All in all, it appears that the colleges, whether they know it or not, have a lot of little lost sheep on their campuses. To be sure, vocational and general guidance is much more common nowadays than a few decades ago; but the pattern of letters, coming from graduates of all ages, indicates that it is still too little and not good enough. Maturity. This is a good word to ponder, for in the feelings of our graduates about their colleges it very often seems to play an overt or at least an implied role. They'd Pick Alma Mater If our college graduates had to do it all over again, the Time survey discovered, they would go back to college and almost to a man to the same college from which they graduated. The only significant doubt expressed was on the matter of generalized versus specialized education. About a third would choose the same college, the same major, and elect the same balance between generalized and specialized training; 37 percent would change one of these three factors; 22 percent regret two of their decisions; and 8 percent would change all three. All in all, the figures seem to show a pattern of greater democracy on the campus, something which educators have long desired. Mr. Havemann writes: "Of our oldest graduates, the majority went to private colleges rather than to state-supported schools 62 percent. Among the youngest graduates the scale very nearly tipped has been the other way; the proportion of private school graduates has dropped to 53 percent and the number of public school graduates has risen to 47 percent. The Ivy League has been more or less submerged in the flood; among the oldest graduates there are three Ivy Leaguers for every four from the Big Ten state universities of the Midwest, but among the youngest graduates there are only two for four. At the same time, the number of graduates from — denominational colleges has remained fairly constant: 18 percent among the oldest graduates and 22 percent among the youngest. "In substantial numbers—24 percent, or about one out of four—the oldest graduates chose their colleges on the basis of family tradition; they went to the school their fathers had attended, and sometimes their grandfathers as well. Among the youngest graduates, this proportion has dropped to 15 percent. The proportion who mention low cost and an opportunity to work one's way has meanwhile risen from 34 percent to 44 percent. More young people have been receiving help in the form of scholarships —a third of the most recent graduates, compared to only a fourth of the oldest ones. And more have been working their way. The proportion of men earning at least some of their expenses has always been quite high; it was 75 percent among the oldest graduates and has risen to 81 percent among the youngest. Among women, where the figure was much lower to begin with, it has jumped in spectacu- lar fashion; among the oldest graduates it was only 36 percent, while among the youngest it is 66 percent. "The college man and woman of today do not necessarily come from a privileged family; the degree is hardly a guarantee of social background. And more and more students, as their social and economic background became more varied, are thinking of college more and more as the road to all kinds of occupations in all kinds of fields. To a sociologist conducting this type of survey twenty or thirty years ago the graduates would have been very easy to find—just by looking in the schoolrooms, the doctors' and dentists' offices, the law firms and the engineering branches of' industrial firms, one could have rounded up most of them in a hurry. Today the search is much more difficult— and probably two decades hence one will hardly know where to start looking, much less when to stop." �ALUMNI NEWS ITEMS BY CLASSES P '01 MD—Charles D.

And yet, ask anyone—the alumni-fans, the students, the citizen-fans, the sports writers, and the educators—the 1952 varsity football season can be counted one of the most successful in the University's history. Entering this fall's campaign, the Bulls had a new coach, a new system, a com- pletely depleted squad, and the most ambitious schedule in many a year. Things looked black on even the brightest days. Colgate, Lehigh, and Bucknell pre-season selections by the "experts" as the strongest independents in the East— were to be met on successive weeks. Things looked blacker. The skeptics, however, weren't figuring the spirit, drive, personnel, or coaching of the Bulls. Although each contest seemed tougher, the Bulls gained strength as the season wore on and, even in a losing cause, their intestinal fortitude gained the praise and admiration of all of Western New York. Fritz Febel, appointed to the head coaching position last spring, started from scratch September Ist to install a newsystem with but three weeks before his season's opener. He quickly instilled confidence and determination in his charges and, through two-a-day sessions, sevendays-a-week, rounded them quickly into — shape. was a race against time, and the time was too short. The first two games consequently were marked with mistakes and It sprinkled with fumbles typical of a "green" club, but they were proving grounds for the big games to come. Homecoming, October 4th, found the Bulls up to 50 point underdogs to Col- gate—and no takers. After 60 minutes of play however, the store was 13 to 0 and the Bulls were moral victors, if nothing else. The succeeding weeks proved more of the same. Buffalo lost, affording to score, but throughout Western New York were hailed as victors. The big teams came in; ihey won, but the Bulls were glorious in defeat. Seniors Bob Ray and Cas Kania, halfbacks, piled up yardage through nonexistent holes. Joe Shanabrook, limping throughout the season, held together with tape and sheer personal fortitude, hit receivers and called the plays when he shouldn't even have been on the field. Captain Buz Buzzelli, a tackle, and guards Ray Chamberlin and Tom Radich, gave away a minimum of twenty pounds per game, but made their presence felt for a full 60 minutes. Ends Joe Papsidero and Andy Podlucky also were standouts in a losing cause. In fact, each of Febel's squad of 27 could be singled out as contributing superlative performances. Yes, Buffalo lost them all but one. But an under-manned squad, that never said "die" in eight successive weeks, won much more than any single game in the eyes of the alumni, the students, and plain Joe Fan. J.B. 13 7 0 7 0 13 7 Cortland Connecticut Colgate Lehigh BuckneU Western Reserve Alfred OPP 33 47 13 26 22 35 19 The 1951-52 edition of the University's Cager-Bulls was the best aggregation to the Blue and White in some 20 years. Their 18 and 5 record surpassed all previous seasons' win totals by three games, and their invitation to the NAIB elimination tourney tapped the greatest season in Coach Mai Eiken's University cage career. Coach Eiken The *51-'52 team was a short team, with most height manpower, short in and of the scoring punch bunched in the first squad. Two of four of the eleven man these first four have gone and with them a cumulative game average of better than 30 points per game. Their replacement presents Mai Eileen's big problem this year. Back again is last year's freshman sensation, Jim Home, who, although hampered by injuries for the better part of the season, averaged 17 points per game and set up just as many more. Jim Rooney and Dick Riley, two steady guards with speed to burn, and "Big Dan" Craft, a regular, complete the nucleus Eiken has for this season.

MEMBER OF THE AMERICAN ALUMNI COUNCIL PLEASENOTIFY USOF CHANGE OF ADDRESS �3 The Chancellor's Report (A Digest) The University Year in Renew To the Council Of the University; I have the honor to submit the re- port of the Chancellor for the academic year 1951-1952. Enrollment In company with most other educational institutions, the University suffered a decrease in enrollment, although the decline was somewhat less than expected. The total enrollment in the day divisions of the University, exclusive of the Summer Session, was 5170,in comparison with 5892 in 1950--51,or a decrease of a little more than 12%. The enrollment in Millard Fillmore College declined from 5914 to 4877,or 17.5%. Summer Sessionregistration, on the other hand, increased 9.6%. The total enrollment in the entire University for the year dropped from 12,496 to 11,588, a decrease of 7.5%. The enrollment will probably continue to decline for another year or two, after which it will again start upward. By 1960 the total enrollment will probablysurpass that of the peak in 1948-49. The University will be strained to provide the necessary buildings,equipment, staff, and the underlying financial support to take care of this inevitable expansion. A new classroom building, including modern physics laboratories, must be provided in the next two years. Educational Developments Graduate School of Arts and Sciences Enrollment in the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences increased from 562 in 1950-51 to 759 in 1951-52,including students registered in the Summer Session of 1951 and in Millard Fillmore College. The largest increase in graduate enrollment was in engineering, with 232 prospective candidates for the degree of Master of Science in Engineering. This rapid increase in graduate study put a heavy burden on the faculty of the School of Engineering, particularly because of the necessity of offering a large number of graduate courses in the evening. This program will undoubtedly expand in the future, and will require a larger graduate faculty, additional laboratory facilities, and more adequate counseling and thesis guidance. Graduate work, particularly at the Ph.D. degree level, is the most expensive education providedby the University. The need for graduate study in this area will grow enormously in the next decade, and the University will have to make strenuous efforts to provide the necessary financial support. tain that every member of the class secures small group instruction in the solution of legal problems similar to those he will encounter in practice. The first year orientation program was continued and improved. By dividing the freshman class into small groups it is possible to give students who are faced with a new vocabulary, a different method of teaching, and unfamiliar subject matter the personal attention and orientation they so badly need at the outset of their law school experience. The Law School library was weak in three areas: periodicals, textbooks, and statutory material. To strengthen the library in these fields a special appropriation of $5000was made early in the year, and it is expected that additional special grants will be made from time to time until the deficiencies are removed. In the next year or two it should be possible to bring the library to a desirable standard. School of Education Since it was established in 1932,the School of Education has awarded 1504 degrees and certificates. During that period 686 Master of Education degrees have been granted. The first Doctor of Education degree was conferred in 1948. The number of candidates for this degree has increased very rapidly, and in the future a large part of the work of the Schoolof Education will be at the doctorate level. Law School Two important changes were made in the curriculum of the Law School. The senior seminar work was rearranged to include problems courses, the purpose of which is to make cer- Medical School The Medical School also gave special attention to the guidance of first year students. During the previous year, Dr. Edward M. Bridge inaugurated a counseling program in which small groups of students worked closely with members of the medical faculty drawn from the basic medical sciences and the clinical departments. This plan was extended to second year students. The faculty members involved in this counseling program meet in seminars to discuss problems of curriculum and instruction. As a result of this study significant changes will undoubtedlybe made in the medical curriculum. For example, a fresh- —- (Continued on Page 2) �4 The Chancellor Reports 'Continued from Page t> man course in introduction to medicine ha.s been proposed for 1052-53. Meeting in small groups, first year students will have an opportunity to see patients and to discuss the clinical significance of their courses in the basic sciences. Introducing the student to the patient immediately is not only a means of motivation; it is also an attempt to understand the individual in relation to his environment. This emphasis is an example of the modern effort to understand the process of human development, to see disease in relation to individual growth and adjustment, and to stress the preventive aspects of medicine. Chronic Luxta-i* Research Institute The first patient was admitted to the Chronic Disease Research Institute on May 1. 1951. The program of the Institute is now divided into four parts the Chronic Disease Research section, the Alcoholic Information and Rehabilitation Center, the Department of Physical Rehabilitation, and the Respirator Center. Plans are under way to open an auditory center and to establish a curriculum in physical therapy. for Medical Education The teaching hospitals associated with the Medical School, the Chronic Disease Research Institute, the Roswell Park Memorial Institute, public Rrfsourcfff health agencies, the University's Psychological Clinic, Speech Clinic, and other resources, provide clinical ma- terial, educational facilities and research centers for an unparalleled program of medical education. Our future task is to coordinate and util- ize these resources to the fullest extent in basic and postgraduate medical education. Dfntal School A new clinical program was inaugurated in the Dental School. During the first semester, junior students were assigned to assist and observe seniors operating at the Meyer Memorial and Children's Hospitals. Starting March 1 the seniors were taken off these assignments and the juniors began to perform actual clinical services in the hospitals. Next year sophomores may participate in the program. Thus, dental students will secure earlier contact with the prac- tical aspects of their study. Additional Support Required for Expanding Medical-Ik ntal BnroOmtni Although the new Medical-Dental Building will provide .space to increase number admitted to the Medical School from 70 to 100, and to the Dental Schoolfrom 60 to 80, it will be impossible to expand the enrollment to this extent until additional funds for the operating budgets of the two schools can be secured. This additional support must be obtained to a large extent from annual contributions from members of the medical profession, and particularly from the alumni of the two schools. An average contribution of $100 per year toward the current budgets on the part of approximately four thousand alumni would go far to finance the improvements that are desperately needed and to make it possible to educate a larger number of physicians and dentists. the School of Nursing With the approval of the basic program in nursing by the National Nursing Accreditation Service, all curricula of the School of Nursing for students or graduate nurses have been approvedby the appropriate professional standardizing agencies, in addition to certification by the New York State Department of Health. During the year Dean Sengbusch and the Chancellor served as members of an advisory committee on nursing education to the State University. The deliberations of this committee made it clear that there is an inadequate supply of qualified faculty members to staff advanced programs in nursing education, and that at the same time there is an urgent need for the training of more nurses for supervisory, administrative, and teaching positions. Itwould seem, therefore, to be in the interest of nursing education in this State for foundations and the State itself to extend greater financial support to the approved programs already in operation, and to provide scholarships or other grants-in-aid for graduatestudy. From the committee's discussion it was apparent that it would be unfortunate for the State University to establish additional centers for advanced instruction in nursing, since this would only divide the present insufficient supply of qualified faculty members. College of Arts and Sciences The faculty of the College of Arts and Sciencesapproved a new program American Studies, an interdepartmental concentration designed to provide a broad knowledge of American civilization. This is not a provincial program, but one which aims to enable students to understand American society in relation to other cultures and other nations. The College continued to experiment with its tutorial plan. Approximately 75'/ of the senior students in the College participated in some form of tutorial instruction. Tutorial methods in vary from department to department. The consensus seems to be torial work in small groups that tuis satisfactory, but it has been difficult to maintain even group tutorials during the necessary budgetary retrenchments of the last two years. Everyone is agreed however, that it would be unfortunate to abandon the tutorial program, since this has been for so many years an outstanding feature of the College. Only a few colleges have maintained a plan of independent study for all students because of its high cost. It is to be hoped that one of the great foundations will make a grant to the College sufficient to im- prove the tutorial plan and to assure its continuance for years to come. No more significant contribution could be made to American higher education than the encouragement and support of the few institutions in the United States which, against all the contemporary emphasis on mass education, are determined to emphasize independent study and to make special provision for superior students. Anticipatory Examinations In 1931 the University of Buffalo inauguratedits system of anticipatory examinations, by which outstanding high school students may secure advanced standing. Over the last twenty years approximately 1500 students have taken these examinations, with varying amounts of college credit. The Ford Foundation recently gave certain universities scholarship funds for the admission of intellectually superior students at the end of the sophomore or junior year of high school. The Foundation also has given assistance to a group of colleges to accelerate the education of superior students, either by earlier admission or by advanced standing. The University of Buffalo may be proud that it set the pace in this development (Continutd on Putt 14) �5 The University And the Air Force R.O.T.C. by Dr. G. Lester Anderson Dean of Administration As you have strolled casually about the campus you have undoubtedlyobserved many of our student men in the neat, trim, blue uniform of the AFROTC cadet. As you have been to our football games or such ceremonies as the cornerstone-lay ing of our residences you have seen cadets on parade and have seen and heard the AFROTC band. You know the unit is now well into its second year on the campus; but I should like to give you certain information concerning the unit, and more important, point out some of the important implications of ROTC programs for the University of Buffalo and higher education in general. In the words of the military, the ROTC unit was "activated" on the campus in September 1951. Ours was one of 62 units established in colleges and universities that year. Only one institution of every seven which applied received a unit. Policies leading to the establishment of the ROTC were formulated by a committee headed by Dean Mohn; but the unit is now organized as a department of the College of Arts and Sciences,ex- cept that the commanding officer, who holds the rank of Professor of Air Science and Tactics and serves as a departmental chairman, reports directly to the Chancellor. This is the same organization that pertains for the Departments of Physical Education for Men and Women. Policy Formulation The University's policies for ROTC are formulated and the program is administered in the same manner as the University managesits other programs. The Air Force asks for the unit and receives from us the same consideration in University affairs as that extended to any other department. It is true that the Professor of Air Science and Tactics as a departmental chairman is responsible to the Chancellor of the University, and as the commanding officer of an Air Force detachment is responsible to the Commanding General of the Air University at Maxwell Field, Alabama; but this divided responsibility has presented no serious problem to us. The enrollment in the AFROTC last year was approximately 625. Enrollment in the program was "automatic" for freshmen last year and is now automatic for all freshmen and sophomores. The current enrollment is approximately 1150. It is anticipated that the unit will enroll two years from now 1500 men. Students who for reasons of health, religion, or hardship wish to "petition out" of the program may do so. Last year 44 students made such petitions of which 32 were granted. This year 66 students petitioned and 59 were granted. As I indicated earlier, the commanding- officer of the unit is appointed to the University's staff as a Professor of Air Scienceand Tactics. All other officer personnel are appointed as Assistant Professors and all airmen as Instructors. All ap- pointments are made without salary from the University of Buffalo. The University is consulted before any officer is assigned to the department and may withhold its approval. At the present time there are 13 officers and 10 airmen assigned to the University of Buffalo AFROTC. University Obligations Dr. Anderson,right, sits inco-pilot's seat for awhile during flight in Air Force plane to Alabama. The University is bound by its contract with the Federal Government to provide "the office, classroom, storage, and other facilities" necessary to the operation of the ROTC unit. The University has provided approximately 7,700 square feet of floor space in the Clark Memorial Gymnasium for the unit. Most of this space is in the basement. Slightly less than half of this space is necessary for storage. This assignment of space has been made at some sacrifice to the physical education activities and it is hoped that an Armory may be constructed on the campus which will provide classroom and some storage space. Other than providing and maintaining space the only additional expense of the unit to the University is the salaries of a military property custodian and two secretaries who, by agreement and custom, are fur- �6 nished to ROTC units by the universities which have them. I have been discussing: certain factual information concerning the AFROTC program on the University of Buffalo campus. More important is its educational significance to the University of Buffalo and to the country. Educational Significance The AFROTC program in the University offers to the young men of this region who enroll in the University the opportunity to secure education and training which in turn will permit them, as they will almost inevitably serve in the military forces, to render this service with optimum benefits to the nation and satisfaction to themselves. The establishment of the ROTC unit on this campus then was done in harmony with the desires of this community to extend to its young people through the University of Buffalo maximum educational opportunity. The ROTC unit has immediate and tangible benefits to the University. It makes the University more attractive to young men with consequent effects on enrollment. Approximately eightyfive per cent of the students in the basic program (the frst two years) may be deferred on request of the Professor of Air Science and Tactics and the Chancellor. This policy of course gives some stabilityto our en- rollment in these troubled times. It is estimated that a half or more of the students who finish the basic course may enroll in the advanced course. We shall be able to enroll seventy-five per cent or more of the qualified volunteers for advanced work. Following the successful completion of the advanced course, graduates are given reserve commissions in the United States Air Force. But this program has a larger significance. I recently attended a conference held at ROTC headquarters, the Air University, Maxwell Air Force Base, Montgomery, Alabama. Presidents or Deans of all institutions with Air ROTC units (numbering 209) were present. It was realized by all of us at this conference that the universities with ROTC units are working in cooperation with the Department of Defense to educate a group of young men who in the words of General Vandenberg "... will enter an organization which is responsible for the management of an appreciable percentage of this nation's resources. Moreover, the organizationin which they will serve is responsible for the protection of those resources and for the primary defense of the nation itself." Air Force Aims It was impressed upon all of us at this conference that the Air Force needs young men of the highest ability and character if the Air Force is to serve this country as it must. It CITATION. Lt. Col. Roswell W. Ard, professor of military science and tactics at the University, is shown presenting citations for superior leadership and performance to, left to right, Cadet2nd Lt. Ralph C. Fey, Cadet Capt.

The Air Force expects by 1955 to get eighty per cent of its officers and some fifty per cent of its permanent career officers from ROTC programs. Thomas K. Finletter, Secretary of the Air Force, concluded his address at the conference with these words: The U. S. Air Force is "no better than the men who fly the machines and the staffs that back them up. We have to get in the Air Force men who will fly the planes, and men who are also capable of serving on the staff and in the higher echelons of comNow I must tell you that mand the problem of the personnel in the Air Force is far from solved. We have not yet created the kind of high grade personnel within the officer pattern that we require. We need better men. There must be a drive for these men, the best that America can produce. It is for that reason that we have presumed to ask you to come down here with us. It is for that reason that we are grateful for nothing your assistance. There is more important in the Air Force than this program for developing the right kind of men to come into it." It was the consensus of the Presidents and Deans with whom I talked following this conference that the Secretary and officers of the Air Force were completely sincere in seeking the cooperative effort of the colleges and universities in solving their personnel problems. The spirit in which we were approached was marked by candor. We were uniformly convinced that the Air Force was earnestly seeking our assistance in solving a problem crucial for the national welfare. Thus it would seem that at the same moment that universities transmit and contribute to our way of life, and educate men and women for leadership and service in the arts, the sciences, and the professions, that they must also be equipping young men with the skills and attitudes that will permit them to defend this way of life so long as the world'.; ideological conflicts have and may continue to erupt in war. Let us then respect the ROTC program. Let us work cooperatively with the Air Force as it has asked us to do. Let us finally be thankful that the Air Force has called on the universities which are as much concerned with the character of men as with their technical skill to provide its officer personnel. for .... �Faculty 7 You'll Remember: Dr. Albert R. Shadle Professor of Biology College of Arts and Sciences Nestled in the trees behind Hayes Hall is a seldom-noticed, one story building called the "Vivarium". To present day students with a revulsion for four syllable Latin words, it's known as the "animal house"; to alumni of the twenties, the "morgue". Yet, within this building, surrounded by his specimens, records, skunks, porcupines, guinea pigs, rabbits, and a pet fox, one can find one of the foremost biologists in the country, Dr. Albert R. Shadle. Retired as head of the Biology Department of the College of Arts & Sciences this last year, Dr. Shadle at 68 retains his übiquitous interest and evident love for the biological world. As he says, "I'm even busier than before and enjoying every minute of it. Now I'm able to get started on the many things I was unable to get to in my 33 years as head of the department." Born in Lockburn, Ohio, the only son of a stationary engineer, Dr. Shadle earned his B.A. and M.A. degrees from Ohio State and later, through a fellowship and a graduate assistantship, earned his doctorate in the field of biology. The good doctor proudly asserts that his education was paid for byworking as a patternmaker at the top rate of 25 cents an hour, a skill which he still finds comes in handyaround his laboratories. His first teaching post was at Cornell where he stayed only a short time, resigning in 1919 to become head and only member of the Biology Department in the newly-established College of Arts & Sciences at the University of Buffalo. "The equipment in those days", recalls Dr. Shadle,"consisted of my own records. 32 microscopes, and a thousand slides which I brought with me." The first real need was for a skeleton and the young professor and his "department", housedin the old cupola atop Townsend Hall, "93 steps above Delaware Avenue," set about getting one. The process was a lengthy one in those days; gradual deterioration necessitated daily drainage, an extremely odoriferous task. It was so bad, in fact, that on two occasions it caused evacuation of the Dean's office and cancellation of the day's classes. In January, 1922, fire destroyed "Shadle's Cupola" with its records, slides, and equipment, a loss which he still regrets today. That fall, the College moved to the present campus site and the Biology Department took over the top floor of the building now devoted exclusively to Biology. Dr. Shadle has supervised every move and improvement of his beloved department. Its stature in the College today is testimony to his complete devotion to its fortunes. Dr. Shadle, as so many alumni know, is a dynamic personality with an intense drive and a genuine personal interest in those with whom he works. His appearance is indeed that of the gentle professor and his friends within and without the campus circles are legion. He always has maintained a schedule which included an 8:30 A. M. class and, some years, has taught 15 hours weekly. Forever remembered by his students are his down-to-earth classroom demonstrations which feature the use of his hat and lab coat, often to the ruin of both. Since his retirement as head of the department, the only change in his schedule has been the discontinuance of the 8:30 class. He still teaches, has added to his research time, and it is obvious that he is thoroughly enjoying himself. But, as almost everyone knows, "Shadle" and "porcupines" are synonymous; one just doesn't think of one without thinking of the other. Actually, Dr. Shadle pioneered the study of porcupines in North America and he remains the leading expert on that animal. Although he has not restricted his study solely to that field, he is best-known for his research and publications on the animal. Ask him why he picked the porcupine, and the rejoinder is delivered with that well-known twinkle and smile, "Do you know any other animal with as many good points?" Like his favorite porkies, it is difficult to find another personality with as many good points as Doc Shadle. However, his greatest satisfaction is the number of biologists he has taughtand counseled into outstanding achievements in the diverse fields of biological research and teaching". He is proud of his "boys and girls" who went on to distinction in the field and he never is happier than when they return to visit with him. �8 Modern Foreign Languages at the University by Dr. J. Alan Pfeffer Professor of German is reduc- Twentieth century science ing the barriers and boundaries separating countries and continents, but it is the genius of tongues which penetrates the dark labyrinth of some three thousand language compartments dividing our "One World." The modem foreign languages are the media through which flow the cultural and intellectual streams of modern life, and the study of one or more of them is a source of light in a Babel of distrust and misunderstanding. A knowledge of French or German or Spanish, of any foreign tongue, moreover, is a part of the equipment of all who lay claim to a liberal education, for it quickens the imagination and opens vistas to an appreciation of broader human experience. Recognizing the growingimportance of the modern foreign languages in the age of the atom, the University now provides, under the aegis of the Modern Language Department and its Germanic and Romanic Sections, courses in Russian, in addition to French, German, Italian, and Spanish. Chinese and Polish are given periodically through the Evening Session, and Swedish and Dutch may sometime soon be added to the daytime schedule. With the influx of language-conscious Gl's the averageprewar enrollment in the modern foreign languages jumped from approximately 350 to 1650 in 1947 and still hovers around 650. As in the past, a great many of the undergraduates now taking languages are primarily interested in meeting- certain departmentalrequirements. Others want to be able to read the foreign literatures in their fields. But there is an increasing number of those who are keenly aware of the more practical aspects of learning a modern foreign language and prefer to study German or Russian with an emphasis on the spoken ivord and the area or the country in which it is used. Their needs are being met, in part, by elementary language and area courses in the Summer Session. It is hoped that, beginning with the fall semester in 1953, all students in elementaryand intermediate language classes will have an opportunity to add, on an optional basis, two labora- Dr. Pfeger, BA'35, AM'K tory or drill sessions in conversation the traditional recitations each With that headstart juniors and seniors concentrating on modern foreign languages will be able to gain a considerable command of the spoken as well as the written language and to week. its literature. When plans for Foreign Area Studies—now in the drafting stage —are realized, students will be in a position to pursue programs which coordinate the study of history, government, geography, geology, economics, sociology and philosophy with that of the language and literature of a country or an area. The position of the United States in the eyes of the world depends in increasing measure on experts in foreign languages and areas. Several recent U. B. graduates in German, French and Spanish are already serving or preparing to serve our Government in such a capacity. According to the median scores made on the Army General Classification Test by graduates in 20 fields, America's brightest people are now most drawn by the physical sciences, engineering, law, English, and the foreign languages. In the past five years 71 students at U. B. received B.A. and M.A. degrees in French, German, or Spanish. Some of them are now teaching in secondary schools and colleges. A creditable number of them are continuing their studies. At present graduates in German are Teaching Fellows at the University of Buffalo, Syracuse, Cincinnati, Minnesota, and Michigan. Holders of the B.A. in French or Spanish are engaged in advance studies at Harvard, Michigan, Wisconsin, and elsewhere. Mounting inquiries about graduate work leading to the doctorate in Germanics or the Romance languages at the University of Buffalo suggest a growingneed for programs leading to the PhD. The foreseeable spread of the study of modern languages to the grade and junior high schools means large numbers of avid students of language in college a few years hence and calls for new patterns in teacher training. To meet these challenges and to implementthe effectiveness of the University's language offerings preparations must be made now. The library facilities must be greatly enlarged. A modern language reading room with adjoining quarters for seminars are also a "must", as is a well-equipped audio-visual language laboratory. With these will come greater opportunities for research and service in modern languages and literatures. Meanwhile, a grant by the American Philosophical Association has enabled Professor Beyer to carry forward his work on a Documental History of the Development of Montesquieu's Social Philosophe. Professor Pfeffer has completed a German-English and English-GermanDictionary of Everyday Usage for the American Council of Learned Societies and is readying for publication a book on Modern German Civilization, Composition, and Conversation which he co-authored with the late Professor Theodore B. Hewitt. The preparation of a Cultural and Social History of Argentina is occupying Professor Maddock who also collaborated on a Report on the Teaching of English in Puerto Rico, financed by the Carnegie Foundation and the American Council on Education. Graduate students in Germanics have published papers on "Basile and Brentano" and "Lessingana Americana" and others are contributing to a study on Heine in English. �7 Therapy for Speech Problems by Dr. Katherine Thorn Director, University's Speech Clinic (Additional Pictures on Pages 8 and 9) new service students of the University of Buffalo was offered for the first time in the fall of 1949 speech therapy for those who had speech problems. Such a service had been envisioned by Professor Stanley D. Travis, chairman of the Drama and Speech Department, and through the cooperation of Dean Leslie O. Cummings and the Summer Session office, two short-term clinics had been operated in the summers of 1947 and 1948. A growing concern about the problems of students with speech difficulties has been in evidence on many campuses. Clinic facilities have been A for — provided in increasing numbers in the last decade, both at the college level and also in public schools, private schools, veterans' hospitals, and guidance centers. An extremely conservative estimate of the incidence of speech defects, based on speech surveys, is three to four per cent of a college population. Since speech is the chief means of expressing feelings, ideas, plans, and experiences to others, any serious interference in the ability to communicate orally can affect a person's social relationships, his feelings of confidence,his opinions of his abilities, and his achievement. The more concerned the individual becomes about his speech problem, the more likely he will encounter difficulty in expressing himself and so a "circular and cumulative" effect adds to his nowreceives a speech evaluation with recommendations. Students majoring in drama and speech study speech pathology and observe selected therapy sessions with patients. Those students who take the course in clinical methods in speech correction do actual supervised practice work with patients. Since training in speech correction should include work with children and their parents, and with young people of high school age, the Speech Clinic offers services to a limited number of out-patients. Additional types of speech problems are encountered in this work such as retarded speech development, primary stuttering, and aphasia. Many local physicians, hearing of the establishment of the Speech Clinic began referring patients with these problems for speech evaluation and therapy. A special service now available through the Speech Clinic is provided for people who have had their larynx surgically removed. These people would have no voice and would be unable to communicate without the use of a "substitute voice." The instructor of this group learned the method of esophageal speech or "belching voice" after his larynx was removed, and he successfully teaches others this substitute for vocal cord phonation. During the summer sessions it has been possible to provide intensive speech therapy for six weeks to groups of young people with severe speech problems. In 1950 an outpatient clinic for stuttering and one for cleft palate speech were offered. In 1951 and 1952 cleft palate clinics were again given and a clinic for two groups of young children with articulation problems was offered. Sincemany speech problems involve the cooperation of a number of specialists, appointments of consultants to the Speech Clinic have been made for an orthodontist, Dr. Walter Ellis; a consultant in problems of the cerebral palsy patient.Dr. William Dugan; a psychologist, Dr. Egan Ringwall, and an otolaryngologist, Dr. H. E. Bozer. Plans for adding consultants in pediatrics and child psychiatry are being made. Cooperation with the speech therapist at the Institute of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation, and the director of the new Hearing Center is facilitated though a committee which has been functioning this year. This committee is working on the problem of acquainting the medical profession and the public as well as various agencies with the services offered at these three centers. Since the need for trained speech therapists is so great, a plan for a major in speech pathology has been initiated, and a curriculum developed which it is hoped can be included in the offerings of the College of Arts and Sciences in the very near future. problem. University of Buffalo students with speech problems now have the opportunity to secure a speech examination and speech therapy. A small fee is charged on an hourly basis; some of the work is done in individual appointments, some throughgroup work. The types of problems encountered have been stuttering, voice disorders, articulation defects, speech problems associated with hearing loss, cerebral palsy, cleft palate, and foreign accent. Although its primary responsibility is to University students who need speech therapy, there are additional important functions of the Speech Clinic.

Bergman. Aex's2, became the University's sixth Korean Gold Star alumnus when he was killed in action on June 22. 1952. Mr. Bergman was a junior in the pre-medical course when he enlisted in the Navy in January, 1951. He was serving as a hospital corpsman with the Marines when he suffered his fatal wounds. Robert was the son of Mr. and Mrs. Alfred Bergman of Eggertsville, N. Y. Shortly after news of his death was received, approximately 100 of his friends and relatives banded together to donate blood to the American Red Cross in his memory and, in the words of his father, "to help the other boys still over there". �14 STUDENT MUSICAL Engineers Elect FEB. 13 & 14 HAS By Mail Ballot BS(En)'5l, H. ALUMNI SUPPORT hasRobert been elected president of the Goldsmith, "Our own varsity revue, at last!" That's what the students are saying around the campus these days. They're referring to "You Caught My Eye", an original, student-authored, musical comedy which is being produced Friday and Saturday evenings, February 13th and 14th, by the student public relations committee of the Board of Managers. Because it was obvious that ticket sales were going to exceed the capacity of Norton Union on campus, the show will be presented at Buffalo's Bennett High School auditorium on those dates. The General Alumni Board has also endorsed this initial student musical production and a special committee headed by Nancy Lou Knowlton Binder, BA'36, will send ticket reservation blanks to all alumni and the divisional association officers. Originally undertaken by the student committee as a project to promote student activities, the show has grown into a full-fledged revue with original music and lyrics which depicts college life at the "U. of Z.", a parody on life at U. of B. Student talent will surprise the critics, and the tunes and dances are worthy of professional productions. Proceeds of the show will be used to sponsor a scholarship for some deserving high school senior, and it is expected that the production will become an annual event. The student committee is currently conferring with the General Alumni Board exploring the possibilities of offering the show during the next year in the communities where there are alumni clubs.

B. CAGERS SET FOR GOOD SEASON AT HALFWAY MARK At the mid-season exam schedule break, the University's basketball team has posted a 6-4 record, with nine games yet to go. Lacking the double-scoring punch year's court crew, and missing the steady floor direction of Hal Kuhn, Edß's2, the Eikenmen are not the team of a year ago, but certainly of last are a team to be reckoned with. They've got speec1 to burn, a good scoring threat, and plenty of flash. Led by the incomparable Jumpin' Jim Home, last year's freshman sensation, the Blue and White got off to a fast start and racked up six straight wins. W. & J., RPI., and Hobart were all on the list. Then came the three C's: Case, Canisius and Colgate. Niagara followed: and four times the varsity met its match, but not before giving a good account of themselves. What the season's record will finally look like is hard to imagine, but it looks as though Eiken and his team will post another proud one. Jimmy Home is leading all Western New York scorers with a 24 plus record per game. In fact he's ranked in the top ten in small colleges throughout ANDREWS TAKES the country, and he has been double teamed all the way.

Andrews, Jr., BS <Bu)'49, has resigned to take a position in industry. On February Ist, he became advertising manager for Rich Products, Inc., in Buffalo, a firm headed by Robert E. Rich, BS(Bus) Andrews, '49 '35. area. Most alumni will remember "Eddie" for his outstanding work with alumni clubs and divisional alumni associations. He also served the University well as director of sports publicity and in organizational work in the Development Campaign. -K Expansion of the University's Corporation and Industry Liaison Office was announced last month by Chancellor McConnell. He stated that enlargement of the liaison facilities was made necessary by an increase of about 50 per cent in demands for University services by industrial, financial, and business organizations in the Western N. Y. Charles M. Fogel, BA'35, MA'3B, director of the liaison office, disclosed that 46 research projects for industrial and business firms, research foundations, and governmental agencies are currently being conducted at the University, as compared with 32 a year ago. Named to succeed him is J. William Everett, BS(Bus)'sO, who was appointed to the staff of the Alumni Office last summer. m December 18th s gameagainst FOOTBALL?

The University Libraries During the year, for insurance purposes, the library made a complete revaluation of its collections of rare books and manuscripts. It is expected that the value of these collections will amount to at least $750,000. New gifts of manuscripts, letters, and books were received. Several large series of letters of Robinson Jeffers, Mark Van Doren, and William Carlos Williams were presented by Mr. Charles Keppel of Albany, California, and a large accumulation of letters addressed to Millard Fillmore were given by Mr. A. Conger Goodyear, who has made many generous donations to the library. The Lockwood Memorial Library has been made a depository for the publications of the Atomic Energy Commission. Research Activities Note was made in my annual report for 1950-51 of the appointment of a committee on research, of whichDean John A. Beane served as chairman. The purpose of this committee was to aid faculty members in securing outside support for research projects and to stimulate a program of contract research with industries and other community agencies. During the year, grants-in-aid for research activities, special educational projects, and fellowships amounted to $684,097.51, including the appropriation of the New York State Health Department for the Chronic Disease Research Institute in the amount of approximately A very large proportion of these funds, even beyond the latter $310,000. appropriation, were for projects in the Medical School. We may expect a considerable expansion of sponsored research in other divisions of the University, particularly in its scientific departments. It is apparent that, in support of its research activities and in subsidization of graduate students, the University will have to depend more and more heavily upon outside sources, including foundations, corporations, and government agencies. From overhead charges on research contracts the University set aside for the first time a fluid research fund administered by a committee of the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences. Faculty members may apply for grants-in-aid from this fund for individual or group research projects. It would be undesirable for the entire energy of the faculty to be devoted to sponsored research, and this fluid fund should aid in maintaining free and The independent investigation. University and the Community Niagara Frontier Convocation One of the most dramatic and, if we take the comments of those may who attended at face value, one of the most successful expressions of the University's intimate relationships with the cultural, civic, professional, business, and industrial life of this region was the Niagara Frontier Convocation on December 7 and 8, 1951, the theme of which was "The Outlook for Mankind in the Next Half Century." This Convocation symbolized the intention of the University to strengthen and extend its associations with the metropolitan area and the whole of Western New York. As I said in opening the Convocation, its orientation "is to the future—not only its problems but its possibilities. The University of Buffalo, too, looks forward to new avenues of service to this great region, to the education of its youth, to the cultivation of scholarship and the continuous search for truth, to the strengthening of those freedoms which are at once the life of a university and the hope of mankind." At luncheons, at a community banquet, at symposia, and at great public meetings distinguished leaders in government, education, business, health, science,and the arts discussed topics pertaining to the next half century. This program evoked an almost unprecedented response. More than thirty-five thousand tickets were issued for the several events. One of the most successful events was the alumni luncheon attended by nearly one thousand persons, at which the University awarded citations to twenty-three of its most distinguished alumni and to fourteen other outstanding citizens of the Niagara Frontier. This was the first time in recent years that a general alumni luncheon had been held and there was widespread sentiment for making it an annual occasion. As perhaps no event in the University's recent history has done so well, the Convocation made the community conscious of the greatness of the University, of its rich contributhe intellectual and cultural life of the people, and of its still greater potentialservice to the region. Not the least of the University's values is to provide, as perhaps no other institution in the community can, means of bringing together citizens in all walks of life, and men and women of every race, color, and creed. The University of Buffalo is a great unifying influence in a city of diverse but culturally complementary groups. Special Institutes and Conferences The Convocation was followed by an unusually large number of conferences and institutes. The School of Social Work, in cooperation with the Social Workers' Club, the Council of Social Agencies, and the American Association of Schools of Social Work, held a symposium on "Social Work Education at the Mid-Century." The School of Engineering held conferences on materials handling and stress analysis, and cooperated with the School of Business Administration in one of the sessions of its 25th anniversary conference. The most ambitious series of conferences was held by the School of Business Administration in celebration of its 25th anniversary. The general subject of the three-day series was "Problems in a Defense Economy". The School of Nursing conducted a series of institutes and conferences designed to assist staff members of hospitals and public health agencies in the consideration of problems in nursing and nursing education. The Department of Postgraduate Education in the Medical School held a series of special institutes and conferences, including the 31st annual post-graduate one-week course. tion to Other Examples of Community Cooperation The School of Education continued its cooperation with the Western New York School Study Council, which conducted research studies and summer workshops. The School was one of sixteen participating institutions in the cooperative program in educational administration supported by the Kellogg Foundation, and it also continued its cooperation with the �17 State Education Department in a study on the prediction of success in secondary school teaching. Seniors in the School of Business Administration again studied specific problems in a large number of Niagara Frontier business and industrial firms. The Law School cooperated with the Erie County Bar Association in producing the television program Law and You" and cooperated with the Bar in other ways. The indigent prisoner program, which gives each student an opportunity to participate in a live case and to contribute his knowledge and skill to individuals and the community, was continued. Through the Speech Clinic, the Psychological Clinic, the Vocational Counseling Center, and many other agencies, the University offered valuable service to the community. Millard Fillmore College offered twenty special courses for such groups as the Community Council of Parent Education, the National Secretaries Association, the Buffalo Council of Churches, the American Savings and Loan Association, the Buffalo Life Underwriters, the Credit Men's Association of Western New York, etc. In cooperation with the School of Businesss Administration, the College also offered special training courses for the Pennsylvania Railroad Company, Sylvania Electric Products Inc., and the Purchasing Agents Association of Buffalo. '"The Liaison Office An office for liaison with business and industry was established in December 1951. The purpose of this office is to keep up-to-date information concerning relationships between the University and the industrial community, to interpret the needs of business and industry to members of the University staff, to explore ways in which the University can better serve business and industry in this area, and to keep corporations of all types informed of the University's facilities for education, research, and service. Development Campaign The appointment of a committee on University development was noted in the annual report for 1950-51. Under the general supervision of this committee, a Greater University of Buffalo Development Program was planned.Mr. Owen B. Augspurger, Jr., a graduate of the Law School in the Class of 1937,was appointed general chairman, and campaign headquarters were established in Townsend Hall. The intensive financial drive in Buffalo and Erie County opened on May 5, 1952. Through the efforts of a very large number of individuals who served as leaders and workers, subscriptions of $2,300,000 were announced early in July toward a goal of "$3,500,000 plus" for the present effort. The two immediate purposes of the campaign were to raise $2,--500,000 for the completion of the Medical-Dental Building, and $1,000,--000 for the construction of a physics and general classroom building. Other long range purposes were announced at the same time, including larger funds for student aid; endowment for faculty salaries; and for improvement and expansion of the University's educational services; a new building for theater, music, and art; an expansion of the Medical-Dental Building into a comprehensive center for instruction in the fields of health; additions to other campus buildings; and better downtown facilities. Since the larger pledges made by private and corporate citizens, including the alumni, will be permanently recorded in various scrolls and memorial tablets, they will not be enumerated here. It is appropriate, nevertheless, to call particular attention to the magnificent pledge of $250,000 made by the Seymour H. Knox Foundation. This is in addition to the sum of $445,000 which the University has received in the past from the Knox family. It is especially pleasing to pay tribute to the activities of the alumni during the campaign, not onlybecause they contributed generously, but because eighteen hundred of them participated as workers in the Erie County drive. Particular attention should be called to the success of the medical section of this drive, although all other alumni divisions proved once more their loyalty to the University's cause. The University is deeply indebted to Mr. Augspurger, the General Chairman of the campaign; to Mr. Lawrence D. Bell, Honorary Chairman; Mr. Edward H. Butler, Chairman of the Greater University of Buffalo Development Program Advisory Committee; Mr. G. Thomas Ganim, and Mr. John H. Little, CoChair man of the Alumni Participation Committee; Mr. Paul A. Schoell- kopf, Chairman of the Development Committee of the Council; the leaders of the main divisions of the local drive, whose names were fully reported in various widely distributed campaign publications; and all those who worked so effectively in the University's behalf. As the second stage of the intensive Erie County campaign, the completion of the Erie County solicitation began. The third phase of the campaign, under the .directorship of Talman W. Van Arsdale, Jr., Director of Alumni Relations, will be the continuation of the drive among alumni in various centers of the country. This intensive campaign, which is only the fourth in the University's long history, should lay the basis for continuous financial promotion not only for capital funds, but for annual contributions to current operations on the part of corporations, alumni, and friends of the University. The experience in this campaign has served to indicate the necessity of a broader and more intensive program of public relations, and an office for continuous financial development. New Buildings Medical-Dental Building The construction of the MedicalDental Building proceeded rapidly under the effective supervision of the Chairman of the Council's Committee on Buildings and Grounds, Mr. Karr Parker. The cornerstone was laid June 5, 1952. The building will undoubtedly be completed ahead of schedule,and will be occupied during the late spring and summer of 1953. When completed and equipped, it will provide practical and modern facilities which will mark it as an outstanding educational plant. It will probably be dedicated with appropriate ceremonies and scientific conferences during the fall of that year. Campus Residences During the year the University completed arrangements with three Buffalo savings banks for loans in the amount of $1,350,000 for the construction of three dormitories—two for men, and one for women. Ground was broken on March 25, 1952. Construction proceeded rapidly, and there is every reason to believe that the residences will be ready for occupancy on schedule on February 1, 1953.

MEMBER OF THE AMERICAN ALUMNI COUNCIL PLEASE NOTIFY US OF CHANGE OF ADDRESS �A U-rom the (chancellor Message of the vfnii/ertitu: To The Alumni: The Annual Alumni Fund has become one of the most impormaintaining high educational standards in privately financed and independently controlled colleges and universities. Increasingly, alumni of these institutions, because they are fully aware ofthe differencebetween the cost of their own education and what they paid in tuition, have determined to underwrite a substantial part ofthat deficit. The growing concern of the alumni of the University of Buffalo for the support of their Alma Mater is a source of great encouragement and faith. If the University of Buffalo does not secure even greater assistance from its graduates, it will be impossible for it to provide the high level of education for which it has so long been recognized. tant and essential means of The Alumni Loyalty Fund was suspended during 1952 in order alumni giving on the Greater University of Buffalo Development Program. However, in spite of the fact that there was no solicitation, more than $8,000 came in from those who, having acquired the habit of sending an annual gift, continued to subscribe to this current fund. Many of these same alumni, I am sure, contributed also to the capital gifts campaign. to concentrate The Honor Roll this year expresses the University's gratitude to those who have subscribed to the development campaign, as well as to those who have sent in gifts to the Loyalty Fund during the year. The names of those who are participating in the current area financial campaign are, of course, not listed. They will be given later in the year, and a message to that effect is being printed with the Honor Roll. As I have met graduates of the University, I have been impressed with the number who said to that they could not have secured their professional and specialized training had it not been for the University of Buffalo. We must continue to offer educational opportunities to as many young people as possible. With this purpose in mind, we have made only very modest increases in tuition during recent years. This means that if we are to maintain and improve the University's varied educational programs, we must have widespread support from alumni and friends of the University, including business and industrial firms. Every alumnus, whatever his profession, has a direct and even personal stake in the high standing not only of the division from which he was graduated, but of the University as a whole. No physician, for example, wishes to apologize in the slightest degree for the present reputation of the University's Medical School. Fortunately, every graduate of the University may point with pride to a distinguished Medical School. How important it is to be able to continue to do so! me It has been my privilege recently to meet many alumni in their own communities. It has been a heartening experience to sense their deep loyalty, and it is a pleasure to acknowledge not only their financial assistance, but, even more, their deep and abiding interest in the University. 3 �4 A Z/rom the Zrund Message (committee (chairman, INTEREST ON A MILLION DOLLARS! To The Alumni: Many of us could not have obtained a university education if good old U.B. had existed. The generosity of many donors before our time furnished the original buildings of the University for us to use and we paid our "fare" while in School, except for the sizeable part that the University's endowment fund subsidized us. But the University of Buffalo is not a rich school and million dollar gifts are unknown here. We can, however, indirectly as Alumni, make a million dollar gift— that is, provide the income from a million through a loyalty gift each year. The annual interest on a million dollars at the University's current return is $40,000 or about five dollars per hour. How many hours' interest can we each give?—even one will help. Last year you received no letter from your class agent for the Loyalty Fund inasmuch as you were solicited for the Development Campaign. The latter, as you know, was for capital gifts to complete the Medical-Dental Building and begin a Physics Building. We haven't made our goal yet, but the Alumni response was excellent. So far, 3,015 Alumni pledged. But 15,000 Alumni gave nothing. Some have not yet been solicited and perhaps some were missed in the bustle of the campaign; and others at the moment could afford nothing. Well—here's another year and we have the opportunity to show our appreciaton to the University that has made it possible for us to secure an education. Payment on your Development Campaign pledge will be credited to the Loyalty Fund, but perhaps you'll want to send a few extra dollars direct to the Loyalty Fund as partial interest on that million dollars. Just think—if every Alumnus sent only one hour's interest, U.B. would be richer by $85,000.00. But all can't give; therefore some of us must give more. not Sincerely yours, �3 THE ROLE OF THE ALUMNUS abiding interest in the welfare of higher education. It has contributed needed financial support. It has helped in developing educational policies. Three years of intensive study devoted to the major financial problems facing universities, colleges, and professional schools of this country were climaxed last fall with the final reports of the Commission on Financing Higher Education. In reaching its most widely-publicized conclusion that institutions need at least $250,000,000 more in annual operating income, the Commission explored every facet of higher education as it has developed in the United States and prepared a series of important books that cover the major issues in the field. But alumni interest in higher education may also be short-sighted and detrimental. The "old grad" is often portrayed in our literature as the selfsatisfied, substantial member of the community who feels that the college today should be just what it was in his day. This portrait is only too real in too many instances. The alumnus may fear change, may look upon the present generation of students and faculty as "rebels," usually forgetting his own behavior at an earlier time. He may be critical of some viewpoint he hears expressed by one member of the faculty and so condemn the whole institution. He may seek to attach as a condition to his gift the demand that some faculty member personally obnoxious to him be dismissed. That such action may undermine academic freedom never occurs to him, or he holds the whole concept to be just a Of broadest interest are the final two volumes: the Commission's report entitled Nature and Needs of Higher Education, and the staff report entitled Financing Higher Education in the United States. Both are published by Columbia University Press, ISew York, Copyright 1952* Presented here is a section (pp. 224-6) from the staff report chapter on the "Internal Organization and Management" of institutions of higher education. It is reprinted with permission. One must acknowledge the role which the alumni of institutions of higher education play in their management. Formally, again, alumni have little, if any, authority. They may elect one or more members of the board of trustees of a college or a university. In a few cases they elect a majority of trustees. Otherwise, they may have no official responsibility. Informally, alumni exercise a considerable influence upon various institutions, both public and private. The alumni are important assets of a college or university, but sometimes also one of its major liabilities. There is an ofttold story of the college president who expressed a wish that his next institution might be a penitentiary, for "there he'd have no alumni to bother him." The alumnus is an asset in many ways. As a graduate of a college or a university he above all others in the community at large is expected to appreciate the importance of higher education, the end it serves, the achievements it accomplishes. He should be its chief supporter when under attack; its most constructive critic in times of general complacency and self-satisfaction. He must by his own example exemplify the individual competence and the moral integrity which higher education seeks to help cultivate in its students. The alumnus is important to the financial support of higher education. For the public college or university it is the alumnus who may most reasonably be expected to assert to legislators and to other groups the importance of adequate state government appropriations to the institution. For the private college or university it is the alumnus who must be relied upon to have an abiding interest in the financial well-being of his "alma mater" and contribute to its sustained operations. The role of the alumnus is widely recognized in higher education. Colleges and universities maintain substantial offices which continue to cultivate alumni interest in their institution. Alumni clubs are organized and encouraged to meet at least once a year, with a campus representative usually present. An alumni magazine or news bulletin is periodically published. Alumni reunions are promoted, as well as other periodic return visits to the institution. Alumni funds provide a means for soliciting and contributing gifts to the college or the university. An alumni council is often organized, and its officers are consulted about major institutional developments. In a variety ofways the alumni are thus involved in the operations of most institutions of higher education. This alumni participation has on the whole been valuable to colleges and universities. It has above all else constantly called attention to the achievements of the college educated man and woman in our society and has encouraged them to maintain an "superstition." In our own investigation we have heard many stories which illustrate these brief generalizations. Indeed, it is our impression that it has been alumni pressure more than any other single factor which has led to the emphasis so many institutions, especially state universities, have given to intercollegiate athletics. Many of the football and basketball scandals recently revealed must be laid, first of all, to alumni demands which a supine administration or faculty were unwilling or felt unable to resist. Thus, alumni relations are vital to the successful operation of an institution and often an obstacle to educational change. The continued cultivation of alumni is imperative for all institutions. Nor can such cultivation be one sided. The alumni must be given their opportunity to express themselves as well. Indeed, they seldom fail to make such opportunity or refrain from vigorous presentation of their points of view. The problem is to keep alumni informed, interested, constructive and intelligent in their support of higher education. This is no mean challenge to all elements in the organizational structure of higher education. �6 THE 1952 HONOR ROLL Alumni Loyally Fund Amount Given DIVISION $ 23,817.00 558.00 10.00 306 152 19,289.01 2.-82.5(1 159 20,357.01 2,799.00 13 285.00 32(1 38,040.00 342 38,511.00 36 2,762.50 30.00 591 98,547.04 732 105,113.54 25.00 77 1,318.50 81 1,373.50 50.00 5.00 "I 20 1,522.00 15,265.00 73 20 1,577.00 15,265.00 232 15 23,275.00 5,800.00 233 5.00 510.00 7.00 25 .aw 186.00 3,804.00 24 [edicine 101 fursing iocial Work Summer Session S 225.00 Jon Alumni Faculty 50.00 [iscellaneous S 25,028.00 8,274.50 245.00 460 221 education 20 Total 136.00 26 Kl lalytical Chemistry :ntistry Fund Amount Given Amount Given S 986.00 197.00 Sciences Business Administration irts & Development Centennial Fund 511.00 100.00 7,941.50 240.00 506 235 355 23,325.00 17 6,411.00 ANALYTICAL CHEMISTRY Otto J.

JULIUS W. PRATT Dean, Graduate School of Arts & It was exactly six years ago that a class in American History caused the walls of Hayes Auditorium to bulge as they had never bulged before. Most students and observers would no doubt believe that a class of several hundred students would indicate a "snap course". Such was not the case. What then, was the big attraction ? It was Dr. Julius W. Pratt, then head of the Department of History and Government. About half-way through a discussion of the huge cattle drives of early western days, Dr. Pratt executed a flawless rendition of the famous old cowboy ballad embodying those well known lines, "git along little doggie it's your misfortune .". This perand none of my own formance, complete with variations and gestures, has become only one of a myriad of oft-told stories concerning the man whom countless students have called friend and teacher. A typical American, Dr. Pratt's first childhood ambition was to be an engineer aboard one of the powerful locomotives that hauled passengers and freight through his native Black Hills area of Piedmont, South Dakota. But his first interest in the story of America, which was to be his lifelong occupation, was perhaps aroused when he and two sisters participated in a family relocation which was to establish new home roots in Marion, North Carolina. This was the state in which Dean Pratt received his AB degree in 1908 from Davidson College. The MA followed in 1941 at the University of Chicago, and the PhD was awarded by Chicago in 1924. Julius Pratt's first teaching stint was at the Georgia Institute of Technology. There then followed a three year period during which he learned .. . Sciences, and Samuel P. Capen Professor of American History the cotton mill trade in northwest Georgia, working in both the office and mill. Leaving these surroundings for trie big city, Dr. Pratt began his graduate work in Chicago. Following his master's work, he taught English for three years at North Carolina State, then known as North Carolina A. & M. This English teaching may be something new to his many followers, but it seems he was well-equipped for this field, too, because his undergraduate days involved a general arts program with many electives. 1916-1924 was a period destined to prove most influential in the career of the now noted Dean, for it was the time of his association with the United States Naval Academy at Annapolis, Maryland. It was there that he combined the teaching of English and history in rooms walled on four sides by blackboards. Sections were of a size which often permitted the entire class of midshipmen to be examined simultaneously while writing on assorted subjects from the test. A teacher's job seemed to be mainly one of testing; the student's, one of memorizing. No outside reading other than the text work was compulsory, and it is with a twinkle in his eye that Dean Pratt compares our current methods with those of the Academy and the old school practices. Students of American History today come in frequent contact with the writings of Captain Mahan and it is safe to say that the Annapolis tour of duty stirred up a more than average interest in aspects of Naval history for our Dean. Rutgers University was next to benefitfrom the teaching of Dr. Pratt, just after his doctorate work of 1924. Julius Pratt first came to the University of Buffalo in the spring of 1926. Arriving In May from Rutgers University, where it had been scorching weather, to say the least, he found ice in the Niagara River, cabbages in front of what was later to be called Hayes Hall, and the Chancellor's Office in the rooms now occupied by Dean Lemon. On hand to greet him that day was another Arts and Sciences newcomer, Dr. Albert R. Shadle, Professor of Biology. For the past twenty-seven years, ... Dr. Pratt hasn't moved over 25 to 50 in office location, that is. feet Originally here as Emanuel Boasberg professor of American History, the Deanwas named to head the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences in 1946 and continued to hold the position of head of the Department of History until the deanship claimed all his administrative time in 1948. Despite his charming modesty, he is obviously most pleased and proud when he is referred to by his newest title, Samuel P. Capen Professor of American History. No biography of this typically lanky westerner would be complete without mention of Mrs. Louisa Williamson Pratt who first met the Dean in his North Carolina days. Dr. and Mrs. Pratt have two sons whose accomplishments in their young careers are just one small factor in the Dean's eagerness to chat about his boys. They are William Winston and Walden Penfield, both graduates of the University of Rochester. The former received his PhD. in physics from lowa State and is presently conduct- �18 (Continued from page 11) ing research in nuclear physics at the State University of lowa. Walden is presently in Washington, D. C, with the U. S. Geological Survey, having previously pursued graduate work in geology at Yale University. Both are War II veterans. Mrs. Pratt accompanied him on his lecture trip to Salzburg. Austria last summer. Residing in a palace, known as Schloss Leopoldskron which was built in 1736. Mrs. Pratt was close to European history while her husband joined in the Salzburg Seminar in American Studies as lecturer on American Foreign Policy since 1900. That European trip was justone of many summer excursions which have taken the professor to Duke University. University of Texas, University of Maryland. Harvard University. University of Chicago, and the University of Rochester to lecture in summer sessions and Spring semesters. Space does not permit the inclusion of a list of his many published works of scholarship such as Expansionists of 1812, Expansionists of 1898, or America's Colonial Experiment which was an Historical Book Club selection. Let it suffice to say that his published contributions to historical annals would easily fill two pages with titles alone. Dean Pratt is currently putting in his spare time on a book dealing with U. S. foreign policies, which is expected to be published in the near .. . . . . . . . . . . ... future. A small boy admiring railroad en... a well-traveled young man scholar gentleman author family man humorist and beloved University professor with warm smile, firm handshake and devotion to the principles of the University ofBuffalo—all these go to sum up the Dean who so ably delivered the Commencement Address to the February Class of 1953 another honor conferred by a grateful University of Buffalo. gineers SILVERMAN NAMED Dr. Oscar A. Silverman, professor of English at the University, has been named a visiting fellow at Harvard University. He is one of three visiting fellows in education appointed by Harvard for the academic year '53-'54 through a grant from the Carnegie Corporation. Dr. Silverman has been a member of the University faculty since 1930. BUTLER HONORED AT MIDYEAR COMMENCEMENT Dr. Capen's Papers & Addresses Published "The Management of Universities", a selection of the papers and addresses of Chancellor-Emeritus Samuel P. Capen, was published and released on 21st. Edited by Dr. Oscar A. Silverman of the University's English department, the volume contains many of the writings which made Dr. Capen so respected among his fellow teachers and administrators. Copies are available in most bookstores; however, alumni wishing to purchase copies from the University Bookstore may send their orders to the Alumni Office. List price is $4.75 per copy. March Mr. Butler receiving the Chancellor's Medal from Chancellor McConnell. The University conferred degrees, diplomas, and certificates upon 229 candidates at its 53rd annual Midyear Commencement on February 23rd at Kleinhans Music Hall. On the same occasion, the University acclaimed the public service of Edward H. Butler, publisher of the Buffalo Evening News, when it presented him with The Chancellor's Medal. The Commencement Address was delivered by Dr. Julius W. Pratt, Samuel P. Capen Professor of American History and Dean of the University's Graduate School of Arts & Sciences. Dr. Pratt's address, titled "The Mantle of George Washington", stimulated evident audience approval and was much quoted in editorials locally. He carefully surveyed the "crisis in freedom" presently confronting the United States and called upon the nation and its leaders to preserve our freedom of thought and speech and criticism which he characterized as the "health of our civilization". Chancellor McConnell, in his citation of Mr. Butler as the 26th recipient of the medal, emphasized Mr. Butler's staunch defense of the freedom of education and the freedom of speech. Dr. McConnell also noted that Mr. Butler has, "with equal energy, called for a responsible press." Among the 229 receiving degrees were 70 men and women who won advanced degrees, including seven doctors of philosophy and three doctors of education. COPIES AVAILABLE Copies of Dean Pratt's speech, "The Mantle of George Washington", are available free of charge upon application to The Editor, U. of Buffalo Studies, Hayes Hall, Buffalo 14. ALUMNI BOARD AMENDS BY-LAWS The General Alumni Board's ExecCommittee recently passed two important measures designed to strengthen alumni relations with the utive University. The first was an unanimous recommendation to the University's Council that the number of alumni signatures needed on each petition for nomination be increased from ten to fifty. In sending the Board's recommendation to the Council, Alumni President Robert E. Rich, BS(Bus)'3s, emphasized the serious nature of the duty of an alumni-elected member of the University Council. He cited the fact that there are now nearly 20,000 living graduates of the University and that nomination for election to the Council should represent a larger en- dorsement than ten. alumni. The Council readily agreed and the recent instructions on nomination mailed to all graduates emphasizes the necessity of securing the fifty signatures rather than ten as formerly. The Board also amended its ByLaws to admit non-alumni faculty members to associate membership in the alumni associations representing the divisions in which they teach. Alumni President-Elect William J. Orr, MD'2O, who sponsored this amendment, cited the participation of the non-alumni faculty in all University projects and the desire of the alumni of all divisions to have them as their associates in alumni affairs. The amendment was approved unanimously. �UNIVERSITY NEWS AND CAMPUS BRIEFS CAGE SQUAD POSTS 10-9 RECORD to R. Ist. row: Coach Mai Eiken, Mgr. Dave Lee, Pbil Smolinski, Mgr. Rog McLaughlin, Mgr.

It was 10-9 for the basketball-Bulls at the close of the 1952-1953 season, which is just another way of saying that since Mai Eiken took over the reins in 1948 our cagers haven't known a losing campaign. Of course, it was a little closer this year than they would have preferred. Opening with a pre-season unofficial victory over the Niagara Falls Naval Air Station quintet, the Bulls won five straight before being- defeated by Case, 82-81. Led by captain Jim Rooney of North Tonawanda, the team depended heavily on the scoring magic of Riegel's Book Called "Basic" Professor Robert E. Riegel's book on insurance, first written in 1921, has been named "the basic book in the field of insurance" in a nationwide survey among college professors, practicing accountants, management engineers, librarians, and other allied groups. Dr. Riegel, popular professor of insurance and statistics in the School of Business Administration, recently brought out the third edition of the volume, "Insurance Principles and Practice". The survey which established the popularity of the book was conducted by the national committee Jumpin' Jim Home, sophomore sensation who averaged 22.9 points per contest. The team has yet to be found that can bottle-up the lanky star. Toronto, last team on the schedule, succeeded in putting him out of action, via the foul route, with three minutes of the second half gone. This was the major factor in the Bull's amazing 80-59 upset on the Canadian court.

The University administration annually allots $10,000 or one-half of the unrestricted gifts to the Alumni Loyalty Fund for these leadership awards which are open to all students depending on need and leadership ability. The awards are made by the University's Scholarship Committee, with recommendations from the Awards Committee of the General Alumni Board. 21 �22 STUDENT ACTIVITIES CENTER IN NORTON UNION by Jack Keller, '52 Admissions Counselor Even Olson & Johnson could have produced a better scene of apparent confusion than is depicted here. But to those of us who have graduated since '34, this merely represents the average day in Norton Union. The variety of activities typified in the sketch will serve to give the pre-'34 grad some insight into the many phases of our present oncampus student life. Of course, for every "production" there must be a producer and a director. The Board of Managers, the campus student-governing body, is that producer. The Board is composed of 25 members. Sixteen of them are students elected annually in March to represent Medicine, Dentistry, Law, the five undergraduate divisions and eight at-large. The nine other members are appointed by the Chancellor with the consent of the group and include 3 faculty members, an alumnus, an alumna, the Dean of Women, the Director of Norton Hall, and representatives of the Council of the University and the Office of the Dean of Students. not Since the balance of power in the student governing groups typically resides with the faculty members or administration, this Board is indeed unique in composition. It implies a basic faith, on the part of the University, in the maturity of the college student which of course is not unique at U. B. Recognizing the diverse interests of our student Keller body, the Board sponsors activities ranging from a Debating society and a Radio Playhouse to the Sitzmarkers Ski Club and a rifle team. Even the Medention and Law School Review are in whole or part financed from funds allocated by this group. The Program Committee which functions as a Board Committee plans and directs activities such as dances, coffee hours and last year even included a tiddlywink tournament. In all, seventy-seven stuvast majority of university dent interest groups are functioning throughout the University. In addition to having responsibility for the social aspects of campus life, the Board of Managers also awards activity scholarships to outstanding and deserving students from Junior Prom profits. The appointment of students to serve on joint Student-Faculty committees is another example of the outstanding way in which the governing body aids the Administration in best meeting the needs of the students. The planning, in part, of our new residence units was the result of such a committee. Responsible to the Council also for the conduct of the student body, the Board passes legislation which will benefit the group as a whole and yet be in keeping with the philosophy and tone of the University. Having been granted broad legislative powers well beyond those usually given such a group, the Board of Managers is well aware of the obligations such freedom entails. This is another fine example of the training our Alma Mater offers for living in a modern world. �21 UNIVERSITY NEWS AND CAMPUS BRIEFS NEW ADDITION TO NORTON. Pictured above is the $460,000 addition to Norton Hall, student union building on campus.

What happens to the graduates of the University of Buffalo Medical School ? Where do they go into practice? What type of practice do they engage in: specialization or general practice? How do they practice: as private practitioners or in salaried positions? article in The Journal of Medical Education. "Trends in Medical Practice." by Dr. H. G. Weiskotten and Miss Marion E. Altenderfer. examines these questions in relation to the graduates of all American medical colleges. This particular study covers the graduates of 1935 and 1940, and is a continuation of earlier studies covering medical school graduates for the years 1915. 1920, 1925 and 1930. It is based on questionnaires sent to the graduates of the various classes. Of the 1935 graduates. 64 per cent returned their questionnaires and 70 per cent of the 1940 graduates returned theirs. (Forty-six out of sixtytwo 1935 University of Buffalo graduates, and thirty-seven out of fifty-four 1940 University of Buffalo graduates returned their questionnaires.) A comparison of the returned questionnaires with the American Medical Directory indicated that they are representative of the entire graduating classes. The figures quoted below are based on the returned questionnaires, and the comments have come entirely from this article, with those parts of the article which apply to the University of Buffalo especially cited. Let us look first at the distribution, by size of city, of University of Buffalo medical graduates in private practice. Of those who returned quesA recent tionnaires, sixty-four graduates out of the 1935 and 1940 graduating classes went into private practice. From this group, 46.9 per cent were practicing in communities with a population of 500,000 or more; 7.8 per cent were in communities with a population of 100,000 to 499,999; 3.1 per cent in communities from 50,000 to 99,999; 18.8 per cent in communities with 10,000 to 49,999; 4.7 per cent in communities of 2,500 to 9,999 and 17.2 per cent in communities with less than 2,500 people. The distribution of University of Buffalo graduates according to the size of community deviated somewhat from the average distribution. The University of Buffalo had almost twice Professor of Economics the average proportion of graduates (24.9) in communities with over 500,-000 people, and was far below the average proportion for communities ranging from 50,000 to 499,999. However, the University had twice the average per cent (9 per cent) of graduates who located their practices in communities with less than 2,500 almost in population. Dr. Butler What are some of the factors which cause physicians to distribute themselves in different-sized communities in the pattern observed above? Weiskotten and Altenderfer list these reasons as being important in determining the location of medical school graduates: 1) the per capita income of the area which the physician chooses for practicing; 2) the location of the medical college which the physician attended; 3) whether or not the medical college is publicly or privately supported; 4) the pre-medical school residence of the physician; and, 5) the place in which the graduate served his internship. The study brought out specific information along these lines in relation to the University of Buffalo. Of the 1930 graduates of the University of Buffalo, 94.3 per cent were practicing in New York State in 1936, and 86.1 per cent of the 1935 graduating class and 78.6 per cent of the 1940 graduating class were practicing in New York State in 1950. Buffalo was one of eight schools, out of a total of 68 colleges included in the study, which had more than 75 per cent of its graduates practicing in the state in which the school was located. Perhaps even more significant is the fact that 45.7 per cent of the 1930 graduates were practicing in Buffalo in 1936, and 30.6 per cent of the 1935 graduating class and 46.4 per cent of the 1940 graduating class were practicing in Buffalo in 1950. The only other schools which had a higher percentage of their 1940 graduating class practicing in 1950 in the same city as the college were New York University, with 48.6 per cent, and Wayne University (Detroit) with 46.4 per cent, the same percentage as Buf- interesting to note that falo's. It is the two cities involved were much larger than Buffalo, whereas many other colleges located in communities larger than Buffalo had a lower percentage of their graduates in the same city. The effect of the pre-medical school residence of the graduate on his final location as a practicing physician is indicated by the following statistics for the University of Buffalo: 53.7 per cent of the combined 1935 and 1940 graduating classes lived in Buffalo prior to attending the University of Buffalo Medical School. Furthermore, 91.5 per cent came from New York State and 95.1 per cent came from the middle Atlantic states. Buffalo was one of six American medical colleges which had 50 per cent or more of its graduates practicing in the same city as that in which they lived prior to attending medical school. Of the combined 1935 and 1940 Univer- sity of Buffalo classes, 50 per cent were practicing in the same city as the one they lived in prior to attending medical school, and 85.9 per cent were practicing in the same state of their prior residence. Some interesting figures are revealed concerning the nature of practice of the graduating physicians. The following percentages for the University of Buffalo illustrate the tendency toward increased specialization on the part of physicians. From the 1915 class, 35.7 per cent of the graduates limited their practice to a specialty, 23.8 per cent of the 1920 class, 18.4 per cent of the 1925 class, 17.5 per cent of the 1930 class, 52.2 per cent of the 1935 class and 83.3 per cent of the 1940 class. The interpretation of the above figures is subject to a limitation because the 1915 graduating class was studied eleven years after graduation, the 1920, 1925 and 1930 classes six years after graduation, the 1935 class fifteen years and the 1940 class ten years after graduation. The greater lapse of time between the date of graduation and the date of the study for the last two classes allowed more time for the physicians to specialize. The high percentage of University of Buffalo Medical School graduates who limited their practice to a specialty is explained, in large part, by the fact that so many of them, located in Buffalo, and other large communities. �That is, the size of the city in which the practice is established clearly affects the percentage of physicians who limit their practice to a specialty —the larger the community, the higher the percentage. It was noted earlier that sixty-four of the graduates of the 1935 and 1940 classes combined went into private practice. Thirty-six were in the 1935 class, twenty-eight were in the 1940 class. Percentagewise, 87.5 per cent of the 1930 class, 78.3 per cent of the 1935 class and 77.8 per cent of the 1940 class went into private practice. These figures closely approximate the averages for all American colleges, which were 77.8 per cent, 82.9 per cent and 77.6 per cent respectively. Many of the University of Buffalo graduates took salaried positions. Approximately 22per cent of the combined 1935 and 1940 held full-time salaried positions in 1950 and approximately 32 per cent held part-time salaried positions. This study indicates that the graduates of the University of Buffalo Medical School have certain characteristics which distinguish them from the graduates of other medical schools. They show a much greater tendency to settle in communities of over 500,--000 population. This can be partially explained by the fact that a large number of the students come from communities which are over 500,000 in population, and that the University of Buffalo is located in a city of over 500,000 in population. The University of Buffalo has an outstanding record in terms of the large percentage of its medical graduates who locate in the same city as the college. Arts & Sciences Annual Dinner Meeting Place: Hotel Sheraton, Delaware Avenue, Buffalo. Time: 6:30 P. M., April 29. Plan: Annual dinner meeting of the alumni, this year honoring the 25-year professors. Cantor, Scofield, and Summer. Plus: An Alumni Success Story! Price: $2.75 TOTAL. And that includes dessert for those of you who missed it last year. ARTS & SCIENCES SUCCESS STORY Just An Idea! The annual meeting was the topic under discussion as the officers of the Arts & Sciences Alumni Association gathered one evening last year. There wasn't much spirit in evidence either. As one of them put it, "The trouble is that no one wants to come to the annual meeting. It's the same ol' thing every time. Other than providing a pleasant evening once a year, what program does this outfit have?" It was deserved criticism. Arts alumni really hadn't any constructive program of activity like those carried on by several of the University's divisional alumni associations. And providing or initiating a worthy program which would be representative of and interesting to each of the many diverse occupations prepared for in the Arts College is a tough assignment. But this group of officers determined to put on an active and worthwhile program. Perhaps it was just this same diversity of interest and occupation which prompted them to come up with the suggestion that they examine some of the opinions held by their fellow-graduates about certain aspects of the training they received as undergraduates. Modest Start. Beginning on a modest scale, they decided to interview a sampling of graduates of a period of 15 years and ask them pertinent questions about the tutorial program, counseling, and choice of courses. The faculty was enthusiastic, too, and joined in the preparation of the questionnaire and gave valuable advice on the manner in which the sampling- was made. Dean Julian Park was especially interested and enlisted the assistance of Dr. Edward S. Jones, director of the University's personnel office. Soon the program was underway and the first interviews were being carried on. A Then Recognition! Dean Park and his colleagues saw much more in the program perhaps than any of the alumni. They decided it was so worthwhile that it deserved wider sampling and study than was possible with the limited financial resources of the Alumni Association. Accordingly, under the supervision of Dr. Richard M. Drake, assistant dean of the College and director of tutorial instruction, a plan was prepared and submitted to the Fund for the Advancement of Education set up by the Ford Foundation. The officers of the Fund saw it the same way as the alumni and the faculty. As a result, the University has received a grant of $22,200 to carry out the program. An example of the distinguished and constructive service an alumni association can offer its University! Thorough Survey. The grant will be used to survey the University's anticipatory examinations, free elective system, and the tutorial plan. One part of the survey especially will be carried on with the support of the Arts and Sciences Alumni Association and will involve the interviewing of a sampling of the graduates of the College. Dr. Drake has been appointed to direct the study. Anticipatory examinations have been given by the University for the last 21 years and have been taken by nearly 1800 high-ranking high school students during those years. Also for the last 21 years, the College has held to a free-elective system for all students, with no special distribution of courses rigidly required. This has been coupled with a freshman-evaluating examination and an individual-orientation conference, plus a dual-advising program, in which at the beginning of each semester a student's program is discussed with a member of the personnel office and a faculty adviser. Tutorial Emphasis. In recent years, with the greatly increased number of majoring students, most departments of the College have been able to provide tutorial instruction involving individual independent study only for the superior students. All departments have had to adapt their tutorial instruction, and this study will evaluate the great variety of instructional procedures classified as tutorial that have resulted. The proposed study will also investigate the worth of tutorial instruction in terms of expenditure of faculty time and energy. Action Report. Hence it is that the annual meeting of the Arts & Sciences Alumni Association this year will be distinguished by a report of a real contribution of alumni action. The alumni are justly proud that a program initiated by them has brought about an important evaluation. And the spirit is still there! At the meeting of the officers last month, the topic of discussion was, "What will our next project be?" 25 �26 MEDICAL ALUMNI ELECT MASOTTI, '53 More than one thousand medical alumni and their colleagues gathered to hear a distinguished panel of speakers and hold their annual alumni meeting at their 16th annual Spring Clinic Day in Buffalo's Hotel Statler on March 28th. Elected president of the association was George M. Masotti, '33. His fellow officers include these medical graduates: Stephen A. Graczyk, '20, vicepresident; and Grant T.

Loder, '21; John T. Mercer, '30; and Homer J. Knickerbocker, '98. During their business meeting, members of the association voted a SI.OOO gift from their treasury to the library of the School of Medicine and sentiment was expressed that this should be an annual sustaining gift.

TTiis, in ten months' time, included approximately 30,000 miles in their trusty "Agony Wagon" which carried them to meetings with nearly half of University's 20,000 living alumni. From New York City to San Francisco they went, carrying banners, movie projectors, screens, luggage, literature, furniture and endless cartons of odds and ends, not to mention the personnel of the Greater University of Buffalo Development Program.

MEMBER OF THE AMERICAN ALUMNI COUNCIL PLEASE NOTIFY US OF CHANGE OF ADDRESS �3 J^tow Id the DEVELOPMENT PROGRAM Ljoina i By Chancellor T. Raymond McConnell How is the development campaign going? Many people have asked me that question lately, and a quick statistical answer is easy to give. At the beginning of 1952, we set our minimum goal at $3,500,000. To date almost $2,700,000 has been pledged. Therefore, we have about $800,000 still to find, if we are to reach even our minimum goal. The intensive phase of the fund raising campaign ended in Erie County last fall, but until July 1, it will be inprogress in 23 cities from New York to San Francisco, where there are active alumni groups. For some time, additional pledges probably will be forthcoming from people who learned about the University's needs during the campaign. Preparing for the Future important for us to make a distinction between the development campaign and the development program. The campaign is simply an immediate, intensive phase of the program. The development program is our effort to respond to the prodding of the times. The query, "How is the development program going?", is really the question, "Are we going to be prepared for what's coming?" Obviously, that is not so easy to It is answer. What is coming is, among other things, many new developments in nearly all fields of study, and increased enrollments for the University. One doesn't need a crystal ball to forecast that. As human knowledge advances, more and more complex programs are necessary to transmit it from one generation to another, and future university enrollments can actually be counted in the high schools and elementary schools of today. More Complex Studies Every time science takes a step forward, universities must advance with it. A laboratory which in 1920 was considered fully adequate for teaching physics, for instance, now would look bare. The demands of the other sciences have grown as fast as those of the Physics Department. In endeavoring to keep up with the growth of the sciences, all universities of course must try to prevent the development of a world in which science over- shadows the humanities. The explosion of the first bomb dramatized the potentialities of science, but for some of us it dramatized even more the need for the best possible facilities for teaching the humanities. In expanding the scientific fields to keep up with the times, we must not neglect studies which are concerned primarily with the nature of man and the relations of men to one another. Even if we did not expect more students, the University would need a development program. The double pressure placed upon us by the increased quantity of students and the demands for more complex curricula and equipment is little short of atomic itself. atom Increased Enrollments All universities are caught up in a long-range trend which can be described very simply: more and more American young people are wanting and getting an education. Only a few statistics are necessary to show what I mean. Between 1900 and 1950, the population of the United States doubled, but the enrollment of colleges increased more than ten fold! In 1950, a total of 95,912 students—about five times the 1920 figure— graduated from high schools in New York State, and almost half of them enrolled in some institution of higher learning. Universities all over the nation are being forced to expand, and the University of Buffalo is no exception. Additional Reasons for Development To fulfill its purpose of meeting the educational needs of the Niagara Frontier, the University of Buffalo must grow for still another reason—the Niagara Frontier is growing. More and more industry is moving into the area and attracting new families. There are still more reasons why the University of Buffalo must grow to satisfy the demands to be placed upon it. There is a "snow-ball" effect involved in the fact that more and more young people are going to college. Today the lack of a college education is a much greater handicap than it used to be. More and more opportunities are open only to college graduates. At the same time, the cost of a college education is rising throughout the nation. Many can afford to attend a university only if it is near home. The importance of having a great university in Western New York is greater than ever before. �4 Net Effect on University of Buffalo The net effect of all these developments on the University of Buffalo is easy to state. In 1921, our enrollment was 1544. In 1940, it was 4462. Now it is 9241. After studying all die facts available, our informed guess is that in 1960, about 13,000 students will be enrolled in our courses /*/ we can accommodate them. UNIVERSITYOBUCFAMLPOS The Need Both to Grow and to Improve We must combine growth in quantity with growth in quality. The educational demands of the people of the Niagara Frontier will be met somehow, as surely as a vacuum never remains unfilled for long. The question is, will private universities and colleges meet these demands, or will we have to call on the State to develop necessary resources? It would be tragic indeed if the private colleges and universities had to surrender to a monopoly of public institutions in the field of higher education. Realizing all these facts, we began our Development Campaign in May, 1952. Let us admit that we set the minimum sum of $3,500,000 as an arbitrary goal for the time being. No one can guess precisely how far we will have to advance to keep pace with the people around us. Great Progress Has Been Made The University of Buffalo has of course made great progress—the improvements since 1949 have been remarkable. We have added a new wing to the Engineering School building; we have built a new building for the Law School. And since the start of this campaign, we have seen the three new student dormitories, and the new building for the Medical and Dental schools rise on the campus. A new wing on Norton Hall is now being built. This new construction is only the outward manifestation of inward growth and improvement of many kinds. Almost every department in the University is constantly revising its curricula to meet new demands. We have established a new music department, and launched upon new research programs. Many other developments are underway. Much Yet to Do But let us admit that we haven't yet caught up with the times. A new building for the Physics Department is needed immediately. It will not be long before more dormitories will be necessary. In talking about our other needs we face two dangers —that of being considered merely visionary, and that of planning too little. Still, the question of what we need is only the question of what kind of university the Niagara Frontier wants. We think the I*4 million people in this area want a truly great university. That is what they have had; I am convinced they are determined to keep it that way. What will we have to do to make sure we continue to have a great university? We will have to do much— great things don't come easily. We must begin by bringing this present development campaign to a successful conclusion. Then we can pause for breath, and take a look around, and give a more thorough answer to the question, "How is the development program going?" WHAT ALUMNI AREDOINGEVTLHPNM CAIGN by Director of Alumni Relations T. W. Van Arsdale, Jr. The alumni of the University have achieved their best record of the four University campaigns in which they have participated over the years. Graduates living in Buffalo and Erie County have already pledged more than a million dollars, with special credit going to the Medical alumni who pledged more than $425,000. Following the local campaign, area campaigns got under way last fall in areas where there are concentrations of alumni. In most of these "capsule campaigns", solicitation is still going on or the clean-up phase has �5 FITZGERALD AIRPHOTOS DOING IN THE DEVELOPMENT CAMPAIGN been reached. The results that are listed here, then, should not be considered final—and, of course, there is still opportunity for alumni, wherever they live, to get their names on the Scroll of Honor by pledging $50 a year for the next three years. There is much yet to be done in the area campaigns, but the work is proceeding under capable leadership. In the autumn issue of the Alumni Bulletin, names of Buffalo and all area campaign leaders will be published next to the final figures for their areas. The results of the area campaigns as of June 15 th, are listed here. The asterisk indicates that the campaign is still functioning in the area named.

Zittel �UNIVERSITY NEWS University Opposes State Dental School The University through its Chancellor went on record last month against a State University dental school at Syracuse. A proposal, now under consideration by the State University trustees, is to establish two new dental schools in connection with the statesupported medical schools in Brooklyn and Syracuse. Dr. McConnell presented a brief, endorsed thereafter by other college officials in the state, which emphasized: 1. There is no present need for another up-state dental school; 2. Any enrollment in such a school would be at the expense of existing schools either that, or it would have to lower its standards to take in the less qualified, and; 3. Existing schools are perfectly competent to take care of all qualified applicants they now have, and they are actively expanding facilities to meet anticipated future demand. Dr. McConnell stated that the University of Buffalo "has accepted every qualified candidate from up-state New York" for the last four years. He added that the University will soon be increasing its output by one-third. — The University Serves the Community Even the "Cops"! Even the "cops" come to the University! Nearly 70 policemen, from Buffalo and as far away as Gowanda, have been taking special courses in University's evening division, Millard Fillmore College, this past year. The law officers have been studying criminology, including psychological and environmental factors in crime, and criminal law and procedure. Teaching the courses is Professor Charles W. Webster of University's School of Law. Professor Webster is enthusiastic about his students. Says he, "So far, not one of them has fallen asleep. The attendance is almost perfect, they learn fast, and discussions are often lively". Most of the policemen have had several years of experience and are paying their own tuition. Beginning next September, courses in police administration and criminal investigation will be offered these and other law officers. Gout .. Gout is not arare malady and there meager support for the belief that it results from good food, good wine, and good living. Dr. John H. TaJbott, professor of medicine in University's School of Medicine, points this out in his new book, "Gout and Gouty Arthritis" published last month. This is Dr. Talbott's second book on the subject. is THREE NEW DEANS APPOINTED Dean Hyman Dean Fisk Three top administrative posts at the University were filled this last month when Chancellor T. R. McConnell announced the appointments of the new deans of the Graduate School of Arts & Sciences, the School of Education, and the School of Law. New head of the Graduate School is Dr. Henry MiltonWoodburn, AC'22, BS'23, chairman of the University's Chemistry Department since 1945. Well-known as an inorganic chemist, Dr. Woodburn also holds degrees from Northwestern and Pennsylvania State College. Hehas been a member of University's faculty for 30 years. He succeeds Dr. Julius W. Pratt who retires as dean but will continue as Samuel P. Capen professor of American history. Dr. Robert S. Fisk, presently a member of the faculty of the Syracuse University School of Education, has been named dean of the School of Education to succeed Dr. Leslie O. Cummings. Dr. Cummings retires as Dean Woodburn, "22, '23 dean on July Ist, but will the University's faculty as continue on a professor of higher education. Dr. Fisk is a native of Minnesota and holds degrees from Minnesota, Grinnell College, and Columbia University. He served in the U. S. Navy as an air observer in War 11. Widely known for his many publications in the education field, he is also chairman of the National Conference of Professors of Educational Administration. New head of the School of Law is Jacob D. Hyman, formerly a member of the faculty of the School. Mr. Hyman, a graduate of Harvard Law School, succeeds N. Y. Supreme Court Justice Philip Halpern, LLB'23, who has served for the last year as acting dean. The new dean entered private practice in New York after receiving his law degree and was appointed an O.P.A. attorney for the government in 1942. He was appointed to the Law School faculty in 1946. Arts & Sciences Has a Birthday Just forty years ago, this institution became a university in the real sense of the word. From 1846 to 1913 it was a collection of four unrelated professional schools which had contact with each other only on February 22 and on commencement in June. It was an aspiration, not a university. It had a Chancellor whose only function was to preside at the rare meetings of the Council and hand out diplomas. The deans did the executive work of the schools. Almost overnight, all that was changed. The American Medical Association ruled that Class A medical schools must in 1913 and thereafter require at least one year of liberal arts for entrance. It seems hard to believe that many medical schools were hit hard by that ruling. But most of them were, and ours was one of them. On June 18, 1913, the Council met to consider the situation and immediately authorized the creation not of a college of arts and sciences, for which there were no funds, but "courses in arts and sciences", most of which, until 1918 or so, were designed for pre-medical students. Classes met for a year and a half in the medical and dental buildings, thereafter, until 1922, in Tovvnsend Hall. So the College of Arts and Sciences, growing out of those almost incredible beginnings, is forty years old. It graduated its first class of three in 1920. when the State Department of Education approved its degrees. The total number of degrees conferred between 1920 and 1953 is 4,253. 13 �14 FACULTY BRIEFS Chancellor T. R. McConnell has been appointed chairman of a new ten-member Commission on Instruction and Evaluation of the American Council on Education. The commission has been established to plan and review the Council's activities relating to teaching and education evaluation. Other members of the Commission, serving under Dr. McConnell's leadership, represent leading universities from all parts of the United States. Dr. George Goldfinger, associate professor of chemistry, left June Ist for a year's stay in Ahmedabad, India, under the auspices of the UNESCO Technical Assistance Program to help develop fundamental research in cellulose and textiles. . F. Thorn, director of speech clinic at the University, been elected to the Executive Council of the N. Y. State Speech Dr. Katherine the has Association. The Schroeder Story State's Mystery The old "college try" brought cries of anguish and hurried investigation the campus of State Teachers College at Buffalo last month. Cause of all the commotion was a senior's picture in the College's annual yearbook which had just been released for sale. Prominently located near the photos of several senior class officers was that of a "William Schroeder, general elementary senior". Yet no one could recognize the purported senior. Word from the registrar's office verified the rapidly-mounting fears of students and faculty members. There were no records of any such person at good ol' Buffalo State! The Buffalo newspapers wrote it up in that manner. And then, the mystery man came forward and identified himself as Richard C. Allen, University of Buffalo freshman, whose home is in Franklinville, N. Y. A frequent visitor to the Elmwood Avenue campus, Dick revealed his identity to the local papers in this way. "Some of my buddies tried to have their pictures taken just for laughs and were turned down," he explained. "So, I said, 'Oh heck, I can do it. "I actually didn't think it could be done, but it happened. I thought for sure they'd check." Asked how he managed to convince the photographer, the U. B. freshman replied. "I just gave him a line. He even loaned me his tie." Sources at State Teachers College report that President Harvey Rice had a good chuckle over the prank and lists it among the funniest of his academic career. on DR. PARRY LOSES TENURE REFUSING TO TESTIFY BEFORE HOUSE COMMITTEE On May 19th, Dr. William T. Parry, associate professor of philosophy in the College of Arts & Sciences, took refuge in the U. S. Constitution and refused to answer questions of the House of Representatives' Committee on Un-American Activities as to his employment and his home address in 1937 and 1938. In refusing to testify freely and frankly before the Committee, Dr. Parry set off an investigation by his colleagues which resulted in his losing his tenure and as an associate professor, being placed on a one-year appointment basis for the next three years, and being placed in effect on probation for that three-year period. Dr. Parry had been called before the Committee as a result of testimony before the Committee last February by Dr. Richard G. Davis, an admitted ex-Communist wrho is now a professor at Smith College. Dr. Davis testified that he was recruited into the Communist Party in 1938 by two people, one of whom was Dr. Parry. He stated that he had known nothing of Dr. Parry since 1938. When he appeared before the Committee, Dr. Parry reminded the Committee that he had sent it a letter on May 15th in which he offered to waive his constitutional protection against self-incrimination and "freely and frankly" answer questions about his own activities, provided he not be forced to "play the odious role of informer". This offer was turned down by Rep. Harold H. Velde, Chairman of the Committee. Earlier in May, the faculty of the University heard a statement of University policy, approved by the Faculty Advisory Committee and by the General Administration Committee of the University' Council, in which the right of dissent and the right of a professor to entertain and expound any convictions to which honest study and research have led him are firmly endorsed. However, it states that the University "cannot harbor on its faculty any present member of the Communist Party". Former membership in the Party is not in itself a bar to employment or retention, the statement adds. The statement concludes by urging faculty members, if called upon by a legislative committee or any other legally constituted authority, to "testify freely and frankly". It adds that "refusal to testify will make the person refusing liable to suspension without prejudice until, through the procedure laid down in the University's Rules & Regulations providing for a hearing before a committee, he can demonstrate to the proper authorities that he is qualified to continue as a member of the faculty. If he fails so to demonstrate, he will be subject to dismissal." When Dr. Parry refused to testify, Chancellor McConnell announced that an investigation and hearing would be held by the Executive Committee of the College of Arts & Scinces. Dr. Parry appeared before this Committee at four of its sessions. The Committee made its recommendations to the Chancellor. He in turn accepted them andrecommended to the General Administration Committee of the University Council that Dr. Parry be deprived of tenure, effective July 1, 1953, and that his appointment be an annual one for at least three years thereafter. Rules Which Authorized U. B. Hearing for Parry Following is the text of Article 11, Section 7, of the Rules & Regulations of the University of Buffalo under which the university's Executive Committee conducted hearings in the case of Dr. William T. Parry, who refused to testify "freely and frankly" before the House Un-American Activities Committee: "The chancellor shall seek the advice of the Executive Committee regarding the appointment or promotion of each member of the faculty, or the renewal for cause of any member of the faculty. The committee shall also have power to recommend to the chancellor the removal for cause of any members of the faculty. "Any member so recommended for removal shall be entitled to a hearing before the Executive Committee, and at his election, may appeal, from the decision of the Executive Committee to a committee of seven, composed of the chancellor as chairman, three members of the Senate and three members of the Council of the university. "In all cases where the facts are in dispute the teacher recommended dismissal shall be informed in writing before the hearing of the charges against him. He shall be permitted to have with him an adviser of his own choosing who may act as counsel. "There shall be a full stenographic record of the hearing available to the parties concerned. Each Executive Committee shall keep a record of all its meetings and a copy shall be sent to the chancellor within one week of for each meeting." �Dr. McConnell's Statement on Parry On May 19, 1953, Dr. William T, Parry, associate professor of philosophy at the University of Buffalo appeared before a sub-committee of the House of Representatives Com- mittee on Un-American Activities in Washington, D. C, in response to a subpoena. When questioned about his past associations with the Communist Party, he refused to testifyfreely and frankly, invoking the Fifth Amendment of the Constitution of the United States, on the ground of possible self-incrimination. In taking this action, Dr. Parry failed to comply with the policy of the University of Buffalo regarding Communist Party membership and the giving of testimony before investigating bodies. This policy (which had been formulated by an ad hoc committee, approved in principle by the Faculty Advisory Committee, adopted by the Committee on General Administration of the Council of the University, and announced to the faculty on May 8, 1953) stated, among other things, "The university urges that members of its faculty, if called upon by a legislative committee or by any other legally constituted authority, testify freely and frankly, even though they may not approve of the methods of the investigating body or the wisdom or propriety of its operations. Refusal to testify will make the person liable to suspension without prejudice until, through the procedure laid down in the university's rules and regulations, providing for a hearing before a com- mittee, he can demonstrate to the appropriate authorities that he is qualified to continue as a member of the faculty. If he fails to demonstrate, he will be subject to dismissal." Dr. Parry Appears 4 Times The Executive Committee of the College of Arts and Sciences, following both this policy and acting within the context of the rules and regulations of the university, took the initiative, and on May 22, 1953, resolved to inquire into Dr. Parry's qualifications to continue as a member of the faculty. {The Executive Committee is a standing committee with eight voting members elected by the faculty of the college. The chancellor is chairman, and the dean of the college, vice chairman, of this committee, both without voting power.) Subsequently Dr. Parry appeared before the committee at four lengthy sessions. In addition, the committee heard statements from members of the Department of Philosophy and from several administrative officers of the Department of Philosophy and from several administrative officers of the university. It also considered certain relevant documents. These meetings, together with the committee's deliberations, occupied a total of more than 40 hours. The hearings and deliberations elicited certain statements and led the committee to certain conclusions, which may be summarized as follows: 1. Dr. Parry stated that he was an active member of the Communist Party from 1933 to 1942, had somewhat informal and occasional relationships to party affairs while in the Army from 1942 to 1945, and decided to dissociate himself from the party in 1946. He said he joined the Communist Party in 1933 while an assistant in philosophy at Harvard, but that his Communist activities while he remained at Harvard, from 1933 to 1937, were not extensive. In 1938-39 after leaving Harvard, he was director of the Progressive Labor School in Boston, an organization which was closely associated with the Communist Party. In this period he was active in party affairs, and was called before a committee of the Massachusetts Legislature investigating sub- versive activities. On that occasion, he testified openly that he was a member of the Communist Party, and no action was taken against him. Joined Army in 1942 According to Dr. Parry, he left his post as director of the Progressive Labor School in Boston for reasons which had nothing to do with politics. He was employed in a WPA writer's project until 1940. According to his statement, this connection was terminated when, after having been asked to sign an affidavit stating he was not a member of a Communist or Fascist organization, he stated under oath that he was not a member of any Fascist organization but was a member of the Communist Party. He then became an unskilled worker in a Boston furniture factory, and was active in branch affairs of the Communist Party until July 1942 when he enlisted in the United States Army. He remained in the Army Air Corps until December 1945. After his discharge from the Army, Dr. Parry was employed by the International Auxiliary Language Association of New York, an organization which sponsors the promotion of an international language similar to Esperanto. At the same time he taught philosophy in the evening session of Hunter College and a little later worked also with the Veterans' Counselling Service at Hunter College. In submitting his previous academic and professional record at the time of his appointment at the University of Buffalo, he made no reference of his affiliation with the Boston Progressive Labor School. 2. Dr. Parry stated to the committee that at the time he came to the University of Buffalo in December 1946 he was no longer a member of the Communist Party, and has not been associated with party activities since that time. He submitted to the 15 Executive Committee of the College an affidavit to that effect, and also certified under oath that he does not believe in, and has not advocated, the overthrow of the Government by force or violence. Affidavit of Doctor Parry This affidavit is as follows: STATE OF NEW YORK COUNTY OF ERIE SS. CITY OF BUFFALO WILLIAM T. PARRY being duly sworn deposes and says: 1. I reside at 144 Englewood Aye., Buffalo, N. Y. 2. I am not in any sense a member of the Communist Party or in any sense affiliated with such party and have not been in any sense a member of the Communist Party or in any sense affiliated with such party since December 1946. 3. I do not believe in, and I am not a member of nor do I support any organization that believes in or teaches, the overthrow of the United States Government by force or by any illegal or unconstitutional methods and since December 1946 I have not believed in and I have not been a member of nor have I supported any organization and believed in or taught the overthrow of the United States Government by force or by any illegal or unconstitutional methods; and I have at no time taught or advocated the forcible overthrow of the United States Government. Subscribed and sworn to before me this 12 day of June 1953: (Signed) WILLIAM T. PARRY, (Signed) EMILY H. WEBSTER, Notary Public, Erie County, New York. The reasons Dr. Parry gave for leaving the Communist Party were concern for the security of his wife and child; his dislike of party discipline; a greater independence of mind which he had acquired with more maturity and which made it increasingly objectionable to him to have his thinking done for him by the party; and his desire for a career as a university teacher of philosophy, which he realized would be incompatible with party membership. University Policy Cited 3. The committee obtained no evithat while at the University of Buffalo Dr. Parry has attempted to indoctrinate his students with Communist Party principles, either in or outside of the classroom, or has slanted his teaching in that direction. 4. The statement of university policy previously referred to provides that "former membership in the Communist Party is not in itself a bar to employment or retention on the faculty, provided that such membership was terminated in good faith, and that the party principles were in good faith repudiated." dence �16 . The Parry Case In his testimony on this point before the Executive Committee, Dr. Parry repudiated any intention of infiltrating educational institutions and deceitfully perverting education for party ends. He denied that he takes ideas or beliefs ready-made from a party dictatorship. He repudiated the acceptance of dictation from Moscow. He repudiated unwillingness to support the United States if it w^ere attacked by any foreign power, including the Soviet Union. Dr. Parry further stated that he does not ad- vocate overthrowing the Government of the United States by force, though he held that such methods might be justifiedif that Government in an unconstitutional or illegal manner should obstruct the will of the majority. He acknowledged that Communist Party leaders have not in the past been seriously concerned about any ethical necessity of having majority support before instituting revolution and that the same attitude is to be expected of Communist parties and leaders in the future. He did, however, dissociate himself from that party attitude. The Executive Committee concluded that if Dr. Parry had made these statements in good faith, he had renounced the principles inimical to the security of the United States which the committee that drafted the university's policy statement had asserted were held by the Communist Party. Acts Violated Policy The Executive Committee then addressed itself to the question of whether Dr. Parry's statements had been made in good faith. After weighing all it had heard and taking into account all considerations pro and con, the committee was inclined toward an acceptance of Dr. Parry's good faith and concluded that on the basis of information nowr available to the committee he should be held to have conformed in this respect to the requirements of the university's policy statement. Although the Committee believed the balance of its present evidence favored this conclusion, it nevertheless took the position that the hearings as a whole justified a recommendation that Dr. Parry should be informed that the good faith of his repudiation of party principles should be still on trial, and that any new evidence that he has since coming to Buffalo engaged, or does in the future engage, in pro-Communist activities will lead to an immediate re-opening of the case. 5. In refusing to testify fully and frankly before the Congressional Committee, Dr. Parry acted contrary to the announced policy of the university and failed to show the candor that might be reasonably expected of a member of the faculty of the university, and, therefore, failed to act in best interests of the institution. The committee indicated that al- the though it viewed Dr. Parry's behavior before the Congressional Committee with grave concern, it considered that his action was not sufficient to require dismissal from the faculty. Is "Still on Trial" The Executive Committee then adopted the following resolution as a recommendation to the Chancellor of the University: "In view of the fact that the committee believes that the good faith of Dr. Parry's repudiation of party principles is still on trial; and in view of the committee's grave concern over his refusal to testify freely and frankly before the House Committee on Un-American Activities, the Executive Committee of the College of Arts and Sciences recommends: that Mr. Parry's status as a member of the faculty on permanent tenure be revoked; that he be placed on annual appointment as associate professor; that the rules of the university providing that renewed appointments as associate professor conferring tenure shall not pertain to Mr. Parry; that he be restored to permanent tenure only after positive action by the appropriate university bodies; and that in no instance shall he be restored to permanent tenure within a period of at least three years dating from July 1, 1953." As chancellor have examined, of the university, I in the light of the university's announced policy concerning Communist Party membership and testimony before investigating committees, all statements and all evidence presented to the Executive Committee of the College of Arts and Sciences in the case of Dr. William T. Parry. I am willing to accept the Executive Committee's judgment that the balance of the evidence at this time is in favor of Dr. Parry's repudiation of those principles of the Communist Party which are inimical to the security of the United States. Silence Is Deplored However, in view of the full proceedings before the Executive Committee, I agree with the committee's judgment that Dr. Parry's good faith in repudiating party principles should be still on trial. The reasons Dr. Parry gave the Executive Committee for his refusal to answer the questions of the Congressional Committee do not seem to me to justify his action. There are times when the truth must be stated, let the chips fall where they may, and in my opinion the hearing at which Dr. Parry appeared in Washington should have been just such a case. In my judgment, the University of Buffalo established a sound policy in urging members of its faculty, if called by a legislative committee or by any other legally constituted authority, to testify freely and frankly. This candor may be reasonably expected of a member of a university faculty, and it is unfortunate, in my judgment, that Dr. Parry was unwilling to speak as frankly before the Congressional Committee as he appeared to speak to the Executive Committee of his college. It is true that the Fifth Amendment of the Constitution under certain circumstances exempts a witness from answering a question if his testimony would incriminate him, but the very nature of this privilege requires a university to reassess the fitness of a faculty member who invokes it. Furthermore, membership on a university faculty involves professional and academic responsibilities which include candor about one's associations and actions. Therefore, I agree with the Executive Committee that his refusal to answer questions asked of him by the Congressional Committee has injured the good name of the university. Can Be Heard Further With all these considerations in mind I have decided to accept the recommendations of the Executive Committee of the College of Arts and Sciences, and I therefore recommend to the committee on General Administration of the Council of the University that Dr. Parry's status as a member of the faculty on permanent tenure be revoked; that he be placed on annual appointment as associate professor; that the rules of the university providing that renewed appointments as associate professor conferring tenure shall not pertain to Dr. Parry; that he be restored to permanent tenure only after positive action by the appropriate university bodies; that in no instance shall he be restored to permanent tenure within a period of at least three years dating from July 1, 1953, and that this action be effective July 1, 1953, unless Dr. Parry notifies the university in writing by that date that he wishes to be heard further within the context of the rules and regulations of the university. I believe that this action recommended to me by the Executive Committee enables the University of Buffola both to exemplify and to protect the tradition of freedom which is the special strength of both this university and this nation. In conclusion, I repeat and reaffirm the last sentence of the university's statement of policy in regard to Communist Party membership and the giving of testimony before investigation bodies: "While the university itself will continue to do all in its power to promote and protect the freedom of thought, speech and action of its faculty members, it must count upon the full cooperation of its faculty in guarding that freedom against abuses which might destroy it." �17 Faculty You'll Remember: DR.LESOIC.UMNGS Dean of the School of Education; Summer Session Director; Professor of Education. New Englander, scholar, family man, educator, adventurer, cattleman —such are the varied activities and interests of Dr. L. O. Cummings. He looks back on a career as broad and general as the background which has resulted in his distinguished role as educator. Dr. Cummings is quick to acknowledge the inspiration of President Eliot of Harvard which contributed to a career of accomplishment and satisfaction. The Dean was not possessed, as are most youngsters, by one powerful ambition which may or may not lead to ultimate vocational choice. He had several goals, the following and subsequent abandonment of which resulted in a background comparable to the liberal education program of today. A Harvard man all the way, Dr. Cummings received his AB degree in 1910, his AM in 1911, and his EdD in 1921. While completing requirements for the advanced degrees, Dr. Cummings was principal of the Stone Grammar School in Walpole, Mass., from 1910-1912. Also a teacher in the school, he was somewhat set back to learn that the teacher in the next room had taught in that room for as many years as he was old. She felt that he would never be able to handle the five hundred enrolled pupils. This attitude served as a challenge and was, perhaps, a prime factor in his success there. Franklin and Wrentham, Mass., testified to his achievements by appointing him Superintendent of Schools from 1914 -1918. Near the end of World War I he served in various capacities with the Federal Board for Vocational Education. A member of the School Survey, Hampton Institute, Virginia, in 1917 and of a similar survey in Winchester, Mass., in 1920, Dr. Cummings was led by these experiences to the associate directorship of the survey at Augusta, Me. in 1922, at Lancaster, Pa., and at Cambridge, Mass., in 1924. He then became director of the survey at Cape Cod in 1924, and director of the surveys at Lowell, Mass., and Boston in 1927. These activities were being conducted in part during his years of teaching at Harvard where he had been recalled in 1920 to serve as Instructor in Education in the Graduate School of Education. Subsequently, Dr. Cummings advanced to the position of Assistant then Associate Professor of Education at Harvard before becoming the first head of the Department of Education at the University of Buffalo in 1930. The following year he was made Dean of our University's new School of Education. In addition to his duties as Dean he was appointed Director of the Summer Session, a capacity in which he has served since 1933. Determination and forthrightness have characterized his dealings and associations over the years, and have been keenly felt in an experiment sparked by two men, SamuelP. Capen and L. O. Cummings. Theirs has been a partnership in educational trial which not only led to our present School of Education, but set the pace for similar programs in other Universities. The success of this pioneering can be measured by the ever-increasing scroll bearing the names of leaders in the academic world, each of whom has gained that intangible, yet undeniable mark of the pioneering partnership. Their names are those of university presidents, national leaders, schoolroom personnel and above all, parents and homemakers. Despite heavy administrative duties, Dr. Cummings has maintained membership in such professional groups as the Association of School Administrators, American Education Fellowship, Buffalo Schoolmasters Association, Erie County Schoolmasters Association, Phi Beta Kappa, and Phi Delta Kappa. The Dean, in addition to his profesactivities, has pursued extensively his hobby of raising Black Angus cattle on his farm in ColeRoad, Orchard Park. Those familiar with the complications of cattle raising will be astonished to find that the Dean has found the time and energy to attend so thoroughly to his sideline. After retirement from his professional duties he looks forward to devoting more time to possible blue ribbon competition. sional Recently, at a dinner given in his honor by several hundred loyal and devoted colleagues and two professional fraternities, L. O. Cummings accepted the high tributes offered by his associates from all professional levels of the University and of the community. They came to acknowledge their respect and recognition of his many contributions to the field of education and to express their expectations for still further contributions in his continuing capacity of Professor. Characteristically he responded, "This honor is not for me alone, but for all others who took part in this great adventure". Great adventure is the goal of every man's life. As Dean, Dr. Cummings has fulfilled this ambition in one of education's richest explorations. �18 DR. CAPEN'S BOOK PRESENTED IN REVIEW The Management of Universities By Samuel P. Capen, Chancellor-Emeritus. University of Buffalo. Foster A Stewart Pub. Corp., Buffalo. $4.75. To have been associated, whether intimately or not. with Chancellor Capen as a colleague in administration or in teaching was in itself a liberal education. The word "colleague" is no mere compliment. Invariably and quite naturally he looked upon the faculty as colleagues and paid genuine, not lip-service, respect to their opinions. He rarely expressed himself in faculty meetings for fear of unduly influencing the vote, but if pressed to do so, he summed up the argument and in a few minutes gave it cogency and direction. This book is Dr. Capen talking, not only in faculty meeting but in his home; not only to an audience but to his intimate friends. There was no difference in the thoughtfulness. "The Management of Universities" (not too happy a title) is a distillation of the philosophy upon which his long ad- ministration was based. He and Proesup the book; the former with his characteristic modesty, the latter with his usual discrimination. It is, then, a book not only of Capen's writings but of his sense of their comparative and even historical importance. To many alumni it will, perhaps poignantly, bring back a baccalaureate address pointing up the dynamic connection between the four years just ending and the career of usefulness just beginning. To the Council (the sponsors of the volume) it should fessor Oscar Silverman chose the says and addresses which make days of their gradually increasing sense of partnership in an enterprise not only financially challenging but spiritually uplifting. It may recall to them, too, what they may have considered at the time to be his stubborness. Even though the physical advantage of the University may have pointed otherwise, he always held out unswervingly against arbitrary control cf educational policies by outside influences, no matter how important, whether the State of New York, an accrediting agency, or a great foundation which might have been solicited for funds. But all this paid dividends of consistency and integrity. recall the For better or for worse, an American university head occupies a position of enormous power and responsibility, unparalleled abroad. He is asked to give an authoritative opinion on matters of religion, athletics, economics, international relations; and all too often he does so, forgetting occasionally that by implication he is deemed to commit his university to his views. Most presidents don't like this. They are forced into it. Some years ago an article called "Prexy" appeared in Harper's. It was, not surprisingly, anonymous but the internal evidence points to the authorship of James L. McConaughy of Wesleyan University. concludes: "We think the public often expects too much of us and our colleges. We would like you to understand clearly what sort of folk we are. Please do not expect the impossible of us; we cannot educate your sons and daughters unless they have the capacity for self-education within them. We know that many experiences educate just as effectively as a college. We do not want the public to consider us supermen or individuals disdainful of those who are not college trained." Capen would subscribe to that. This book illustrates it. The "New Yorker" once brought to the attention of the "House Committee on Un-ornithological Activities" a sign in the Buffalo Zoo: "This eagle never fishes for himselfif he can rob the more skillful and industrious fish-hawk. The eagle is our national emblem." Why did Dr. Capen "rob" the foundations so seldom? There may have been several reasons. One perhaps was the unorthodoxy of his ideas. (A few years passed and the educational world caught up with them). One was perhaps the newness of the university sponsoring them. Surely a third reason was his reluctance to try out an idea on a potential giver (or anyone else) unless he himself was thoroughly convinced of its validity. And Dr. Capen was not easily convinced of anything; but when he was, he would say something like "Sane but courageous experimentation is the law of educational progress" and such experimentation needs financial as well as moral support. So, hating like all New Englanders to beg for money, he girded up his loins and finally set forth. Some of these advocacies of desirable experiments did indeed need courage as wellas sanity. One which chiefly comes to mind is the address delivered at the annual meeting of the American Association of University Professors in 1936, when he reproached the association for drawing sharp lines between teachers and administrators. The controversary attracted by that address lasted a long time. Still another of that type is an essay in the "Journal of General Education" for July, 1947, entitled "The Teaching Profession and Labor Unions," which commences in such a forthright way as this: "My thesis can be stated very briefly. Teachers, as teachers, should not joinlabor unions. Bodies of teachers should not become locals of the A.F.L. of C.1.0. Non-unionized groups of teachers should not form alliances with national labor organizations for the purpose of betteringtheir economic condition." And toward the end of the essay: "A teachers' strike is, of course, an anomaly. But it is worse than an anomaly. It is a triple act of treason ..." This article was, Ithink, written about the time of a ten-day strike of teachers in the Buffalo schools. For a while, it made him intensely unpopular among a group whose support of the University is, of course, extremely valuable. He — These are two examples of his courage, whether you approve or not. Another, regarding which there can hardly be a difference of opinion, was his inaugural, unfortunately not here included. It was a carefully thought out program (as far, at least, as the liberal arts were concerned) for the whole of his administration, from which he deviated little in practice, not at all in theory, during the next twenty-seven years. Many of the other papers ring the variations on a single academic freedom for both theme, faculty and students his constant devotion to which was a shield that hundreds of spears came to be broken against. To his successor it is a precious legacy, to faculty and students a hope that they will not abuse it. Have these papers anything in common beyond a general discussion of the problems of higher education ? I believe they have, and what they all have is clarity. The most austere of all mental qualities is the sense of style. It is primarily an aesthetic sense, based on admiration for the direct attainment of a foreseen end, simply and without waste. I am sure that not even as a boy did Sam Capen write foggily. A style like his, so simple anddirect as not to seem to deserve the word style, is the exclusive privilege of the expert. Style is always the product of specialist study, the peculiar contribution of specialism to culture. Educationists speak pedagogese, educators speak English. These essays reveal not only a spirit of true, constructive liberalism but a mind nurtured from childhood by great books. A word in conclusion about the book as a book. It is well and simply bound; it is extraordinarily easy to read. The type is large (twelve-point), the paper of the sort that most contemporary books just don't have that is one reason why they are so contemporary. testimony loving It is to the care of many people in the house of Foster & Stewart. They have already published several books by Buffalo professors Bonner, Jones, Cantor and thistheir latest is physical as well as spiritual truth of the familiar but ever glorious fact that "a good book is the precious life-blood of a master-spirit embalmed and treasured up on purpose to a life beyond life." JULIAN PARK — — — — — Dean Macdonald Honored Miss Lillias M. Macdonald, former dean of women at the University, was honored at the closing dinner of the meeting of the National Association of Deans of Women in Chicago recently. She was cited for her long and distinguished service to youth and to the University. Miss Macdonald was dean of women from 1922 to 1952, the year of her retirement, and is now assistant director of alumni relations. �19 UNIVERSITY HAS ITS FIRST OUTDOOR COMMENCEMENT 865 GRADUATES ADDED TO THE ALUMNI ROLES The University gained 865 new graduates as the University held its first outdoor commencement on the campus on Sunday, fune Ith. The exercises, the University's 107th Commencement, took place in front of Lockwood Library, with the speakers standing on the Library steps. Chairs for an audience of more than 5,000 were placed on the lawn in the area between Crosby and Foster Halls. The Commencement address was delivered by Chancellor T. R. McConnell who emphasized the necessity for corporation, industrial, public, and alumni interest in the private colleges and universities if they are to survive. University Has Its First Executive Development Program University's School of Business Administration held its first executive development program this summer from June Bth to 27th. Designed to divorce the juniorexecutive's thinking from everyday routine and to widen his horizon of thinking so that he will recognize and better understand the problems and functions of other departments and their relations to the profits of a company, the program was limited to 25 men for its first session. Dr. Robert W. Johnson, assistant professor of finance, was the program's director and coordinated the lectures and discussion sessions in the areas of business administration and policy formulation, industrial and human relations, and economic and governmental relations. The "students" lived in the dormitories while attending the program. Alumni Elect Three To University Council University's alumni elected three to the University Council for four-year terms in the annual members election held last month. J. Frederick Painton, MD'27, BS (Med)'27, was re-elected to his second term. Owen B. Augspurger, Jr.. LLB'37. and Robert L. Beyer, BS (Bus>'32, were elected for their first terms. The Council itself elected George F. Goodyear, prominent Buffalonian. a four-year term. to membership for �20 McGrath to Head University ofKansas City G.A.B. HONORS GANIM, ELECTS ORR Earl J. McGrath, BA'2B, MA'3O, former U. S. Commissioner of Education, was recently named president of the University of Kansas City. His appointment was announced by the Board of Trustees. Dr. McGrath served on the faculty of the University of Buffalo for seven years and, following service with the Navy in World War 11, became Dean of Liberal Arts at the University of lowa. He left that position to become Commissioner of Education, where he served until his resignation last April. Analytical Chemists Have Reunion The Park Lane Restaurant of Buffalo was the scene of the annual gathering for alumni of the Analytical Chemistry courses, the forerunners of the University's present program in chemistry. Speaker of the evening was Dr. Albert P. Sy, PhD'oB, retired professor of chemistry and honorary president of the group. His classroom popularity came to the fore again as he conducted the serious and humorous portions of the program just as if those attending were once again in his class. Arthur Flentge, AC'l7, was elected president for the coming year. Other officers elected are: Chester J. Bald, AC'2O, first vice-president; Matilda Rossell, AC'2O, BS'36, second vicepresident ; Vera Wetmore Jones, AC'23, secretary-treasurer. Ex-students and alumni of this division are urged to contact the Alumni Office to assure correct addresses and the receipt of all association notices. President Flentge announces the 1954 annual dinner has been set for the first Friday in May. Henderson Now U. S. Attorney for WNY John O. Henderson, LLB'33, was nominated by President Eisenhower last month and his confirmation by the U. S. Senate followed shortly thereafter as U. S. Attorney for Western New York. Chairman of the Republican Speaker's Bureau for Erie County in the last presidential campaign, Henderson has relinquished his participation in the law firm of Cohen, Fleischmann, Augspurger, Henderson & Campbell. Son of a pioneer in vocational education, the former high school athlete, and ex-soldier was president of his freshman and sophomore classes at the University. He is the first Republican to hold the Attorney's post since 1935. Among the first to express confidence in the new appointee and offer best wishes was the man he succeeds, George L. Grobe, LLB'O9. Pictured above, left to right, are William J. Orr, MD'2O, new president of the General Alumni Board; G. Thomas Ganim, BS'24, LLB'27, recipient of the Samuel P. Capen Alumni Award for 1953; and Robert E. Rich, BS(Bus)'3s, retiring president of the Board. Occasion for the picture was the annual spring meeting of the General Alumni Board, held June 10th, in the Park Lane Restaurant. More than 50 members of the Board, all representatives of their divisional alumni associations or the branch alumni clubs throughout the nation, met to hear the reports of their officers, elect new officers, and present the Capen award. DDS'2I, a Committee of the Board, was chairman of the Capen Award Committee and presented the plaque commemorating the Award to Mr. Ganim. Dr. Mimmack noted that his committee had found Mr. Ganim's selection "both inevitable and unanimous, so important and continuous have been his activities in behalf of the alumni and the University". Dr. Mimmack stated that the award is presented annually to an alumnus "who has made notable and meritorious contributions to his University and to its alumni family, such contributions influencing the growth and improvement of the University and stimulating other alumni to give active interest and material support to the University". He went on to cite Mr. Ganim's unbroken record of participation in alumni affairs since graduation, especially calling attention to his participation in aH four financial campaigns of the University and his Edward F. Mimmack, member of the Executive chairmanship of the Alumni Participation Committee during the current Development Campaign. He reminded his listeners of Mr. Ganim's chairmanship of the Alumni Loyalty Fund for three years and his recent distinguished presidency of the General Alumni Board. Retiring president Rich reviewed for the Board the participation of alumni as workers and contributors in the current Development Campaign. Mr. Rich also urged the Board to continue its activities in behalf of the University and the alumni and bespoke for the new president the same cooperation and air which it had been his pleasure to have during the past year. The Board also heard Chancellor T. R. McConnell express his appreciation to the alumni for their understanding and vigorous support of the University's expansion and financial campaign. Dr. Claude E. Puffer, treasurer and comptroller, also addressed the members briefly, commenting on the progress made in creating the new facilities on campus. New officers of the General Alumni for the next year include, in addition to Dr. Orr: Burt G. Weber, LLB'I9, president-elect; Charles Percival, BS (Bus)'47, vice-president for activities; Thomas R. Hinckley, BA'5O, vicepresident for associations and clubs; Owen B. Augspurger, Jr., LLB'37, vice-president for bequests; Harry G. LaForge, PhG'23, MD'34, MS(Med)'37, vice-president for funds; Phyllis Matheis Kelly, BA'42, vice-president for public relations. President Orr appointed the following as advisors: L. Halliday Meisburger, DDS'I9; Edward F. Mimmack, DDS'2I; and Mearl D. Pritchard, PhG'2l. �Rochester Program Attracts Alumni The opening dinner of the Development Campaign in the Rochester area was a successful affair in manyways. But so welcome were the many reunions of the graduates that all attending voted on the spot to re-establish the dormant alumni club. Officers were quickly elected and they promised a program of monthly luncheons would start the following month. The first luncheon was held in May and attracted 50 alumni. Speaker was T. W. Van Arsdale, BA'3B, MA'4O, University's director of alumni relations. The second luncheon proved equally popular with the graduates when they gathered to hear James E. Peelle, University's director of athletics. At the second luncheon, cards were passed out to those who had paid their annual membership dues of one dollar. President Hyman Mandell, PhG'23, announced that the luncheon meetings will recess for the summer and resume in September. Officers of this active organization, in addition to Mr. Mandell, include: vice-presidents, Isadore Wilinsky, MD '28; George Montgomery, SWk'49, MSS'SO; Theodore Bluteau, DDS'2I; Edward Lamb, LLB'I2; John J. Finigan, MD'lB; and Jerome Jacobson, BA'39, MSS'4B; treasurer, William Foster, LLB'33; secretary, Ralph Labene, DDS'49; and directors, John McMaster, BS'25; Abraham Schtulberg, LLB'29; Dr. Donald Morey, BS'27; and William Meckfessell, DDS'26. Arts & Science Elect Knibloe, '47 Chancellor T. Raymond McConnell and Dean Julian Park greeted returning alumni of the College of Arts and Sciences when they met in Hotel Sheraton, April 29th. It was silver anniversary night for three professors. Honored for their long and faithful service were: Dr. Nathaniel Cantor, BA'29, chairman of the department of sociology and anthropology; Dr. Carlton F. Scofield, chairman of the department of psychology; and Dr. John D. Sumner, professor of economics. Dr. Richard M. Drake, assistant dean of the College, reported on the current survey on the curriculum of the college, sponsored by the Ford Foundation's $22,000 grant. Elected to office for the coming year were: president, Wells E. Knibloe, BA'47, LLB'SO; vice-president, Irene G. Heacock, BA'34, MA'36; treasurer, Robert G. Glass, BA'49; and secretary, Dorothy J. Brenner, BA'53. Representatives to the General Alumni Board are Thomas R. Hinckley, BA'5O, and William G. Cook, BS'27. 21 Simon Music Scholarship Created Pharmacy Alumni The esteem in which his fellow and friends held the late D. Bernard Simon, LLB'3O was quickly made coherent a few weeks ago when his friends established the "D. Bernard Simon Music Scholarship Fund". So immediate Alphonse C. Chimera, PhG'2B, received the Gregory Memorial Award, presented annually by 'the School of Pharmacy alumni, at the alumni dinner in Hotel Statler. The affair climaxed the very successful 11th annual spring clinic of the School of Pharmacy. In presenting the award, Louis L. Jay, PhG'2B, said of the recipient, "With a keen analytical approach to pharmaceutical problems, he has aided in spearheading the drive against the encroachment of objectionable elements into the drug field." Elected to serve as officers for the new term were: C. Bruce Campbell, PhG'27, president; Joseph D. Gullo, PhG'3o, vice-president; Marvin B. Carrel, PhG'2s; second vice-president; and Mildred Schwendler Tambine, PhG'32, secretary-treasurer. alumni and Simon, '30 widespread was the response of Mr. Simon's friends in national and international music circles in participating in this memorial scholarship fund that applications are already being accepted bythe University's com- mittee on scholarships. In addition to individual contributions to the Fund, several artists have made known their intention to perform at concerts benefitting the Fund. First of these will be Victor Borge, well-known pianist and intimate friend of Mr. Simon's, who will present a benefit performance at Kleinhans Music Hall in Buffalo on September 15th. The deed of gift, establishing the scholarship, announces this fitting memorial, reading in part: "This scholarship is established as a memlawyer orial to D. Bernard Simon and businessman who was interested in music in all its forms, including the composing of music, and had been interested in musical education for all who desire it. This Fund is dedicated to his memory in the hope that it will be of help to young people who are interester primarily in musical careers. This scholarship shall be open both to boys and girls entering the department or School of Music of the University of Buffalo, or already enrolled in said department." Cameron Baird, chairman of the University's music department, is chairman of the scholarship fund, and Joseph Brock, public accountant in Ellicott Square Building in Buffalo, is treasurer. .. Pharmacy Alumnae Meet The School of Pharmacy Alumnae gathered for their annual dinner in the Hotel Stuyvesant on June 10th. The meeting heard Miss Elloeen Oughterson, BA'42, MA'44, who spoke on "The Value of Preventive Law". Elected during the business portion of the meeting are the following officers who will serve for the coming year: president, Lillian E. Cooper, BS(Pharm)'4B; vice-president, Marilyn Scott Stobie. BS(Pharm)'49; secretary. Kathleen DeClare, BS(Pharm) '51; treasurer, Martha Galantowicz Kazmierczak, PhG'3o; and director, Bertha J. Russo, PhG'2B. Honor Chimera Jamestown Alumni Hear Admissions Policy The Jamestown Chapter of the University alumni gathered in the main dining room of Hotel Governor Fenton, May 20th, to hear Dr. O. P. Jones, assistant dean of the Medical School, and our two admissions counselors, Miss Dorothy Obrecht and Jack Keller, BA'5l. The dinner meeting, based on an admissions theme, enlightened area graduates on the procedures and purposes of the University admissions staff. Following a question and answer period, these officers were elected for the coming year: president, Garra Lester, BS (Mcd)'29, MD'29; vicepresident, F. Elizabeth Jaques, MA '42; secretary-treasurer, William H. Schlifke, BS(En)'49; and representative to the General Alumni Board, Fenner Lindbloom, DDS'24. Tentative plans have been formulated for a Fall reunion and the promotion of University activities by Jamestown area graduates. About That Picture ... The publication of that "old student" picture in the Alumni Bulletin last month brought more than two dozen letters from alumni who tried to help the editor identify these students of a quarter century ago. Naturally there was some difference of opinion, and of course the picture itself was foggy.

Thomas R. Hinckley, BA'5O, alumni vice-president for associations and clubs, will be chairman. ervations FOOTBALL PROSPECTS BETTER The football Bulls are sure of one thing: the final records will be an improvement over the 1952 results. For the first time in several years, the squad numbers forty and the boys cheer and sing their way through the stiff workout periods assigned by Head Coach Fritz Febel. Since September Ist the team has had two drills a day with accent on conditioning and fundamentals. Now, with school under way, the workouts have decreased to one per day. The two hour sessions are devoted mainly to strategy and play execution. Captain Ray Chamberlin, above left, veteran performer at guard or for October 17th end, leads the squad with the aid of Bill Crowley, returned halfback, and Elmer Jahn, 220-pound fullback who led last season's scoring column. Chief morale and humor man is tough little "Bumper" Movesian, who can crack cement from his post at halfback. Ray Kennedy, the lad who sparked last year's modified "T" attack is at the quarterback spot again. Directly in front of Kennedy will be either of two experienced centers, both over 200 pounds in weight. Starting will be Ron Laßocque, above right, with relief assignments going to big Ed Hoeflich. Flanking the centers will be guards Bill Kindel, an up-and-coming sophomore, along with Paul Waldmiller and Fran Mormul. The tackle spots will be filled by newcomer George Evans, who goes 225 pounds and measures 63" barefoot, along with Ernie Kiefer, another letterman, and Bill Friday, Bob Steffenhagen and Pete Notaro. With experience and depth, not to mention daily additions such as Tom Radich, the speediest guard in years, Fritz Febel and company can't help looking forward to a better year. �4 MEDICAL-DENTAL DEDICATION SET FOR DEC. 11th & 12th; ALUMNI LUNCHEON SCHEDULED FOR SATURDAY NOON The dedication ceremonies for SamP.

Everyone knows the girl who only attended classes for two years is just as interested in the welfare of the University as the girl who received her degree. How is the Association organized ? That's another reason we would like to see you at the meeting Tuesday. We would like to explain the elections to the Board of Directors and Officers. What is there for you to do? Lots! You may have your choice of many important committees. There's Publicity. All sorts of jobs on the Fashion Show Committee, or the Alumni Dance to be held in June. Or maybe you have a few ideas of your own on some new activities. You are welcome if you would just like to ask questions or make suggestions. Besides it's a wonderful oppor- tunity to see your friends whom you have lost track of, or just haven't had a chance to see in the last year or so. This organization is not all business. We like to "live it up a little", so there will be refreshments after the meeting-. Easy! Now all you have to do is be at Norton Auditorium at 8:30 on Tuesday, October 20th. We are expecting- every last one of you who was ever a U.B. coed. Other Activities The full program of events has not yet been completed for the year. In fact, it probably won't be until we've had a chance to get together at that "reunion" on October 20th because the Alumnae program is one of and for the Alumnae. However, two events can't escape being re-scheduled. One of these is the sth annual Scholarship Luncheon and Fashion Show to be held in March, always one of the most successful of alumni affairs. The other will be the second annual Alumnae Dance, to be held June 12th at the Buffalo Trap and Field Club. You'll enjoy these and other events on the Alumnae program. Plan to be a part of them!

The first, at the Jewish Center of Buffalo, ironed out details for the constitution, and the second gathering this summer appointed a committee to draft the final edition. Social work alumni have been organized for professional and social purposes in Rochester and Syracuse. The addition of a much-needed Buffalo chapter will permit progress on a new over-all association, starting with three chapters and spreading to areas of Social Work alumni concentration throughout the nation. A fall meeting of the Buffalo area alumni is planned at which the final constitution will be adopted, officers elected, and a definite program of activities initiated. Coordinators for the progress to date have been Elmer J. Tropman. BA'32, MA'35, SWk'37; and Bruce Falkey. SWk'4o, MSS'4I; who have been assisted by Anthony Kaye, SWk '44, MSS'S2, of the faculty of the School of Social Work. Cleveland Alumni Dine and Dance When the University station wagon pulled into Gates Mills, Ohio, its occupants were scarcely aware of the spirit and participation to be exhibited by members of Cleveland Alumni Club on Saturday evening, September 12th. Dr. and Mrs. Robert Stockton, MD'4O, welcomed forty alumni guests at the doorway to their stable's rumpus room. Dr. and Mrs. Kent L. Brown, MD'42, were in charge of arrangements that included a buffet supper followed by a "Vic" dance. Couples arrived bearing contributions for all courses of the supper, little realizing that the length of the party would almost necessitate provisions for breakfast. Buffalo songs, music and laughter echoed over the Ohio hills until the wee small hours. Thomas R. Hinckley, BA'5O, Vice-President for Clubs and Associations of fche General Alumni Board and J. William Everett, BS (Bus)'sO, Assistant Director of Alumni Relations, represented the University at what they described as one of the most spirited alumni reunions they'd ever seen. DENTS TO HAVE 51st ANNUAL MEETING The fifty-first annual alumni meeting- of the Dental Alumni Association will be held at Hotel Statler in Buffalo on October 6, 7, and 8. As usual, the officers and committees have planned a program and clinical sessions in the splendid traditions of this, one of the most outstanding alumni events of the year. An innovation this year will be the afternoon session on Thursday afternoon, October Bth, which will be held on the University campus in the main auditorium of Capen Hall, the new Medical-Dental Building. Student guides will be on hand at this session to assist the alumni in inspecting the new building and its facilities. The annual luncheon, always a "must" for attending alumni, will be held at noon on Wednesday, October 7th, in the main ballroom of Hotel Statler. Presiding over the sessions will be Robert L. Montgomery, '32, president. Assisting him are the officers: Peter L. Battista, '24, vice-president; Clifford A. Chase, '31, secretary; and Samuel A. Gibson, '21, treasurer. Heading the committees for the meetings are these alumni: Herbert F. Coates, '19, advisory; Oscar D. Stage, '23, exhibits; Paul W. Zillmann, '19, essay; Arthur J. Pautler, '29, press; Myron A.

The Alumni Association of the Medical School has set its annual Spring Clinical Day for Saturday, March 20, 1954, at Hotel Statler. Buffalo. If your graduation year appears in this list, you've got a swell reunion coming up, so make a special note that you'll have no office hours that date: reunions for the classes of '84, '89, '94, '99, '04, '09, "14, '19, '24, '34, '39, '44, and '49 will be held that night. Alumnae Dance Aids Women's Residence George F. Lamm Post, American Legion in Williamsville, was the scene of many reunions for graduates of recent years when University Alumnae sponsored their first dance, Saturday. June 6th. Held for the purpose of adding to the furnishing fund of the women's residence hall, the reunion dance was the "brain-child" and project of Irene Graham Sears, BA'5O, better known as "Cracker", who enlisted the aid of graduates from the classes of 1947-1950 to act as the committee. The affair featured, among other highlights, huge posters in various parts of the hall which displayed the names of outstanding student hangouts of the past and present. The dance was so successful that plans are being formulated to make it an annual affair, based on a similar theme, to aid worthy student and campus causes. Leaders in various committee assignments were: SarahKennedy Wehling, BA'5l, tickets; Helen Nauth Knight, BS(Bus)'4B, publicity; Ruth Kintner Starr, BS(Bus)'49, and Darleigh Satrum, Aex's2, decorations; Mildred Short Mayo, BA'4O, EdM'4l, and Mabel Schraft Munschauer, BA '40, door; Nancy Sheehan, BA'5l, alumni research. Graduates and ex-students interested in the promotion or details of next June's dance are urged to contact Miss Sheehan at the Alumni Office. VictorBorge Plays For Simon Music Fund The esteem in which his many friends and colleagues held the late D. Bernard Simon, LLB'3O, was eloquently expressed when they packed Kleinhans Music Hall last month to hear a concert by Victor Borge, concert, radio, and television pianist. The concert was presented by the D. Bernard Simon Music Scholarship Fund, the first fund created for the new music department at the University. Mr. Borge, close personal friend of Mr. Simon, "contributed" his concert as well which, of course, generously added to the proceeds. The standing-room-only sign was out at least two days before the concert. �UNIVER Unknown M Affiliation With StucM InstituteTo Be |H A proposal that a joint up to study a be set or integration of possibl^H the Institute of Applied ArtM with the University wasM weeks ago by the Genffl tration Committee of Council.

The new calendar will present 30 full page pictures of the campus and University life, and will provide a separate calendar page for each week. Voluntary organizations working for the University will sell the calendars at $1.00 apiece. Orders for the new calendars may be sent to the Office of Information Services, 372 Hayes Hall. �UnknownFisher Appointed UnknowA n ffairs Director Margaret 13. h director of Fisher, a former the YWCA's coldivision, has been pointed Univery's director of udent affairs, ie post is a new c and is part of c expanded proam of the office the dean of idents.

The machine will be used at first for graduate students doing research in physics, but Dr. Lyle W. Phillips, chairman of the physics department, states that it may eventually be applied to the problems of local industrial laboratories. The computer was purchased under a grant from the Camille & Henry Dreyfus Foundation of New York City. Dr. Sewall Publishes Book on Western Art One of the most comprehensive studies of Western art ever attempted is the one-thousand-page volume, "A History of Western Art", by Dr. John I. Sewall, University's professor and head of the art department. The book was published last month by Henry Holt & Co. Artists call the book a "monumental job" and predict that it will be an important work for students and others seriously interested in art. �9 Faculty You'll Remember: Dr. Carlos C. Alden, LLB, LLM, JD and Former Dean reat Ameri- ans, and Dr. lden is no exeption. His rthplace, Wilington, Dli- Simplicity, greatness, truth and honor are all embodied in countless tributes paid to this man, teacher, counselor and friend. Perhaps the tribute he cherishes most is the one paid by a former student, now a leading personality in the profession of law, when he told a large audience that each student of Carlos C. Alden had carried away a touch of "Alden's Disease." Let us hope that this is one "disease" that will continue to spread, unchecked, to the far ends of the earth. For here is a man who holds no degree from the University of Buffalo, yet whose very being is firmly etched into the fabric of every University of Buffalo lawyer's degree, not to mention the hearts of practicing- graduates and generations of students yet unborn. To use words and lines in this story to list the honors and accomplishments of Carlos C. Alden would be redundant, for there is probably not one alumnus who could not recite most of the biographical facts concerning the man who, for thirty-two years was Dean of the University's Law School. The proverbial "little red school house" certainly has done all right by ois, didn't aim him for ong. His family turned to its ome area of 3angor, Maine, nd the oneoom school house. There with children two and three times his own age, he learned the "P's and Q's" that were to lead him to the degrees of LLB, LLM, and the honorary degree of Doctor of Jurisprudence. His grandfather, himself a noted New England attorney, would have been proud as only a man from "down East" can be proud when, in 1904, Adelbert Moot, former Dean of the Law School traveled to New York City to offer the University of Buffalo position to Dr. Alden. His arrival in Buffalo commenced thirty-two years of Deanship which have been followed by full days of lecturing and writing, both in school and outside. Still residing at 27 Ashland Avenue, his first and only home in our city, Dr. Alden is one of few Buffalonians fortunate enough to list among past acquaintances such men as Teddy Roosevelt, Governor Charles E. Hughes, and Herbert Lehman. Such a list of noted personal friends could well fill two pages, as could his numerous lectures and writings for the legal profession. "Once having seen the right road, he never varied", said one former student .. and that applies with . Professor of Law of the Law School equal emphasis to his varied activities as Dean. Instrumental in leading the school to national prominence, Carlos C. Alden could and still does exert a firm hand in dealing with student problems such as the tattoo of "gallopin' dominoes" echoing from the senior locker room. What other professor has ever been welcomed back from an extended illness by students rising as one to applaud and cheer their "Doc" ? For that matter, what other college professor has ever been completely surprised at having his students present him with a pre-paid trip to Europe for the summer? Such was the experience of Dr. Alden when the class of 1929 paid tribute to their favorite pro- fessor. His illustrious past has included thirty-three years as president of the Legal Aid Bureau, an organization which he helped to found. One of the most valued honors is the Alden Gold Key Award, initiated in 1949, to recognize outstanding contributions to the field of legal publishing by a law student. It is with a glint in his eyes and obvious pride that Dr. Alden mentions the accomplishments of his two sons, John and Carlos Coolidge, Jr., MD'39. the former a vice-president of a leading pharmaceutical firm in New York State, the latter a much-decorated Lt. Col. of the Air Force Medical Corps, who received the Distinguished Service Cross from General Mark Clark for gallantry at Anzio. Sharing in Dean Alden's many honors has been his charming and friendlywife, whose smile and chuckles are every bit as captivating as those of the "foster father of law", as he has been called on numerous occasions. �8 *■' - ■ BULL PEN UNIVERSITY'S SPORTS DATES Sanford Is Dean ofRackets There's a small, crowded room adjacent to the Clark Gynasium locker room which serves as headquarters for University's "Dean of Rackets." Efficient to the Nth degree, he can best be consulted during a congested lunch hour when he extracts a hot plate, coffee pot and assorted condiments from a locker located behind his desk chair, much as the magician pulls rabbits from a hat. Well, if it's coffee and sandwiches that acSanlord, 49. 'SO count for his amazing success in coaching, let's set In the period of slightly over three years' coaching, William H. Sanford's tennis teams have participated in flftytwo matches. They have lost only three with forty-nine on the win side of the ledger. The Spring season just completed resulted in eleven wins, one loss. Bill Sanford's coaching record is second only to his popularity withboth students and faculty members. Graduated from Amherst Central High School in 1938, he has had varied experience as knitted goods salesman, Ist Lt., U. S. Field Artillery, college student and author, not to mention his swimming and tennis coaching at the University. Following a student career as athlete, president of the Physical Education Majors (PEMS) and participant in numerous student affairs, Bill graduated from the School of Education with an Ed.B. and high honor in 1949. He has since received the degree of EdM, conferred in 1950. The coaching began with a graduate assistantship granted in 1948. After on year, Sanford was named head coach of tennis and swimming. His team members will tell the alumni he's a man to meet. Next time you visit campus, it's a sure bet you'll find him somewhere in the vicinity of the courts, the pool, or the coffee pot. He's too busy breaking records to be elsewhere. VARSITY BASKETBALL VARSITY FOOTBALL Bucknell University at Lewisburg, Pa.

Listed here are the names of those who have been added to the Scroll of Honor since its publication in June, 1953, in the Alumni Bulletin.

However, much that has been heard and learned has not been reported, chiefly because it consists of personal reactions, opinions, and proposals suggested by individual alumni. It just doesn't seem right to report these without the explicit permission of thealumni involved. Coupled with the refreshing experience of hearing alumni speak out forthrightly and intelligently about their University, there has been another. It is that the last half dozen issues of the Alumni Bulletin have elicited a surprising volume of mail from alumni. Putting it conservatively, there has been at least a score of letters sent to the editor about each issue of theBulletin. Further—and they love it—the Director of Alumni Relations and his staff meet many of your alumni and faculty friends daily the sort of thing you'd like to hear about. .... two Hence it is that this page hereafter will be devoted pages are needed, that's 0.K., too. to "Letters" and "Buffalo-Talk". If "Letters" will be devoted to those sent in by alumni who comment on the magazine or its contents or who specifically write for publication. "Buffalo-Talk" will be informal-editorial in nature, thekind of thing theAlumni Office staff would say to you were they to talk to you in the Office or at alumni meetings. FINGER LAKES ALUMNI MEET Alumni in the Finger Lakes had their own "summer school" in August —at least, that's the way the cards read which announced the dinner meeting held at the Geneva Country Club on August 26th.

W. Van Arsdale, Jr., BA'3B, MA'4O. President Philip Serling, LLB'27, presided and General Alumni Board representative Homer J. Knickerbocker, PhG'93, MD'9B, was chairman.

Abount Universities Anda Their Fellow-Alumni Alumbus By "Universities have been initiated by public-spirited men and women to give the youth of their day and of the future generations the finest training possible for the advancement of the individual and of society in general. "Once a university has been established, it is inevitable that others—particu- larly those alumni and citizens who have and will benefit—must take responsibility for its upkeep, development, and perpetuation. "My sincere hope is that my grandchildren may realize that the immense benefit they get from the or even a support, great universities they attend now is not the work of one man group of men, but the steady and untiring collaboration, guardianship, loyalty, and love of generations before them and their duty is not to for- get nor to neglect. .

Bill Tranchell, our student photographer, has one boy of his own—incidentally, he's also a Navy veteran and a full-time patrolman in the Buffalo Police Department. At any rate, Bill was on assignment to take some pictures of the pre-school training group in University's School of Education for an articlewhich will appear in next month's Alumni Bulletin. The youngsters were all outside playing around the pine trees near the Engineering Building when he arrived. It was a "natural" —when he and the rest of us saw those tots playing near those trees, we could think of only one thing: CHRISTMAS. We hope you will, too. We don't know whether the small saw the little girl has in her hand means she has picked out her tree for the holidays. BUT, it is a dandy tree, isn't it? We hope your Christmas will be a joyous one, and that this the happiest and best you've ever known! next year will be THE GENERAL ALUMNI BOARD Executive Committee: President, William J.

Bruce Falkey, '40, '41 Director, Alcoholic Rehabilitation Center Yes, your University has one of the two dozen centers in the country which provide care and treatment for problem drinkers. The Center also is committed to furthering scientific knowledge about a major public health problem alcoholism. — Since December 1948 the University of Buffalo has been receiving grants both from the New York State Department of Health and the Mental Health Commission of New York State, to support this work under the auspices of the University's School of Medicine. Our C elite r came into being because of a demonstrate d need to take a second look at this age-oldproblem. It is an outgrowth of a coordinated community approach to this problem Tulkiy, '40, '41 dating"back many years. The first significant date is 1939. when the Council of Social Agencies of Buffalo and Erie County studied the problem locally and nationally in order to provide the Board of Supervisors and the community with accurate information, on which community plans could be formulated for the care and treatment of alcoholics. In 1947 the Erie County Medical Society set up a committee on chronic alcoholism. This committee continues to do yeoman work in providing leadership and medical guidance on this problem. The Western N. Y. Committee for Education on Alcoholism was incorporated March 1948. One of its major objectives, the establishment of a treatment center, was brought about in December of that same year. In 1950 our Center was incorporated into the Chronic Research Institute, where it now functions as one of three major departments. Before we go any further and you toss the magazine away, thinking that alcoholism or problem-drinking does not concern you, you should know that in our experience we have had ChronicDisease Research Institute, Center'sHeadquarters people come to our clinic from all of the census tracts of the City of Buffalo but two. The individuals range from executives to unskilled workers; from Ph.D.'s to those with little or no formal education. It is also noteworthy that approximately one per cent of the 4,000,000 estimated alcoholics in the United States are found on the Niagara Frontier. Their illness represents a tremendous wage loss to individuals, production loss to industry, and hospital costs to the individual or to the community. No one has yet dared to estimate the cost in human suffering, heartaches, family quarrels, frightened and disturbed children, and the general lowered effectivenessof people as parents who live together under emotional tensions and insecurity. So you see, we cannot think of this important public health problem as just relating" to the Lower Main Streets or Skid Rows in our towns and cities. We have felt for some time that those who use alcoholic beverages to the extent that it interferes with their daily lives were not confined to any one particular group of our citizens. More nearly the truth would be the statement that the way the problem appears on Lower Main Street differs from the way in which it appears in the homes in other sections of our cities. You rarely find alcoholic women on Skid Row, but some physicians in private practice believe that there are nearly as many women alcoholics as there are men. At the clinic our ratio is about one female to six males. The problems which these two groups present are different too. On Lower Main Street there is the problem of dealing with a known group of socially and physically sick individuals who, for one reason or another, have lost all family ties. Their job skills are rusty, even lost; and their ability to work effectively has been reduced by illness and inadequate diet. Here, too, large groups of men live and associate together, with generally only two well-defined one, to exist; and two, objectives to forget. — When alcoholism appears in families outside the Skid Row area, we generally find that physically the individuals are less damaged than on Skid Row, but that the tensions under which they live are more real and apparent than we find in the individuals coming from Skid Row. The stakes, too, are higher for the individual family man. He is fearful that if he doesn't modify his drinking behavior he may end up on Skid Row, or lose his job,or his wife will leave him, or his children will turn against him. Fear of these consequences tend to increase his tensions and befuddle his attempts to handle his problems himself. It is a challenge to reach out and to help this group of troubled individuals �6 (Continuedfrom Pg. S) who are not seen by society generally. but who remain protected by their family and friends and society generally under the guise of outworn ideas about alcoholism. It is sinful. (Is tuberculosis sinful?) It is a disgrace. (Is cancer a disgrace?) The alcoholic is a weakwilled individual. (Is it a sign of weakness to have problems? Who of us are not troubled nowadays?) On our staff we have psychiatrists. specialists in internal medicine, a clinical psychologist, and psychiatric social workers. The different training of these professional people and their varied experiences enable us to see the patient from these four different points of view. We and other clinics have found this approach extremely helpful. You see. with measles or mumps you have a specific cause on which illyou can focus treatment. In the ness of alcoholism not only do you have the absence of a specific cause, but rather, you have the total individual his physical self, his social as self, and his psychological self your focus of treatment. The infinite variety of factors which compose the sum total of his past and present the relationships of relationships himself to his family, to his job, to others about him, to himself, and to his God—affect the way in which he reacts to his present environment and determine the degree to which he can handle his present reality situations. — — — We know that it is important and helpful for people in times of stress or when faced with problems, to talk these over with someone outside their own immediate group. Our clinic welcomes the opportunity to be of service to those people who feel that they have the problem of alcoholism themselves or that it exists within the family. We, as other clinics who provide medical care, do have a fee schedule based upon the individual's ability to pay for this service. We have come a long way in this country in the last ten years of breaking down the barriers of prejudice and lack of knowledge about alcoholism. We know that we still have a long way to go. The University of Buffalo Information and Rehabilitation Center for Alcoholism is an indication of this community's determination to face the problem realistically.

(Continued on Pg. 16) �7 New Music Department Serves Campus and Community by Cameron Baird Professor and Head of the Department of Music Although the new Music Department is barely two months old, it is already striving in many different ways to fulfill its announced goal of serving both campus and community. In its first year it is offering three evening music courses in Millard Fillmore College; five general music courses in the daytime; and both day and night private and ensemble study in voice, piano, organ, 12 orchestral instruments, and string and woodwind chamber music. It is continuing the chorus, orchestra, and band, the latter divided into a concert band and the R.O.T.C. marching band. As a department in the College of and Sciences, it draws students both from other colleges of our University, and also from other universities in the city, and from those of the general public who are unaffiliated with any university. It is also presenting and sponsoring many community projects in the field of music. Arts One which will receive nationwide publicity is the appearance of the celebrated organist, E. Power Biggs, on the campus early in December, where from the new Medical building auditorium he will give his weekly Sunday morning recital over the Columbia Broadcasting System and WGR, followed two days later by a regular concert. In both concerts he will be assisted by several members of our music faculty, in works for two organs and for string quartet. Full details of these concerts will be found elsewhere in this issue. Another local radio station has offered to put on a weekly musical program each Sunday for three months, to be presented by the Music faculty and students. Arrangements are now being made, with the idea of commencing this series in January and telling the people of Western New York more about the new Music Department. Two vocal concerts are scheduled for December. The University Chorale, conducted by Herbert Beattie, which rehearses Thursday afternoons, is preparing a Christmas program with Johann Christoph Bach's Oratorio "The Childhood of Christ" as the featured work. The new Schlicker classic-styled organ will be used to accompany this work and there will be the traditional singing of Christmas carols by the Chorale and audience in Norton Union on Wednesday, December 16. The University Madrigal Singers are presenting a Buxtehude Cantata for the 20th Century Club in December. A Men's Glee Club is being organized for the second semester. Monthly Appearances One of the outstanding offerings of the Music Department is the monthly appearances of two internationally known musicians, Winifred Cecil, soprano, and Alexander Schneider, violinist and chamber music artist. The former conducts a master class in vocal interpretation, called "The Joy in Singing", one Wednesday each month from 5:30 until 7:00 P.M. This is very similar to her successful Town Hall forum in New York. Nearly 100 vocal students, teachers, other musicians, and concert-goers have been attending these monthly sessions. Miss Cecil, one of the outstanding sopranos of our age, has performed with Toscanini, the major Symphony Orchestras of the United States and Europe, and concertized extensively. We are fortunate and proud to offer the opportunity of class and private coaching with this outstanding artist. Alexander Schneider, who is well known as a leading chamber music musician in this country, is also holding a class each month. Various trio, quartet, and quintet groups prepare a work and then perform it for his critical analysis. He also teaches and coaches here privately. He was the man who persuaded the great Casals to come out of retirement with the annual Casals Festival in southern France, and last summer he created a sensation in New York city with his free chamber music concerts in Washington Square Park, supported by the city parks commission and the musicians' union. The Music Department plans faculty recitals the second semester, for students, faculty and alumni. The departmenthas accepted invitations to send members of its faculty and students to several local high schools and also to hospitals for special concerts. All these activities are in line with its policy of serving the general community as well as the campus. The full-time staff consists of Prof. Cameron Baird, Ass't. Prof. Herbert Beattie, and Ass't. Prof. Robert Mols. Mr. Baird teaches the Music History �8 University's New Music Department (Cont'd) and Literature courses, and the class in Score Reading and Conducting. Privateinstruction in vocal technique and interpretation, given by Mr. Beattie. are available both to students specializing in the music major and to students of the University generallyplus special students, provided they possess sufficient talent and basic musicianship. In Millard Fillmore college, a special evening course in the History of Choral Literature is offered, aiming at the daytime working professional and amateur musician who would like to sing, analyze and discuss great choral music from the Renaissance to the present day. This course is available to graduate students who are working for the Master's degree. The first year study of Theory and Harmony which is the basic course of every music department is taught by Mr. Mois. a graduate of Eastman School in Rochester. He is training his students to hear. play, and write the fundamentals of harmony, melody and rhythm, and emphasizes eartraining. He also has an evening class in Millard Fillmore College, available for either graduate or undergraduate credit. Next fall a second year theory course will also be offered. Orchestra and Band The University Orchestra under Robert Mols, and the Concert Band under John Krestic are open to all University students and alumni, either on a credit or non-credit basis. A spring concert is being planned, and both organizations will still gladly accept more applicants. The orchestra rehearses Mondays and Wednesdays from 4:30 until 6:00 P.M.. and the band on Tuesdays and Thursdays at these same hours. A woodwind ensemble class has been organized by the department to provide to all interested students on a credit or non-credit basis, a training in the fine elements of woodwind chamber music. A woodwind quintet consisting of a flute, oboe, clarinet, bassoon, and French horn is planning several programs this school year in and around the campus. If interested, please contact Mr. Mols at the Music Building, and when each complement is full, rehearsal time and coaching will be arranged. Several similar groups of classes in string and piano chamber music have been organized by Aaron Juvelier, a member of the Buffalo Philharmonic Orchestra, and applicants are still being accepted. These groups are all open to adults as well as students. Squire Haskin is teaching the organ and Allen Giles the piano. All orchestra instruments are taught principally by leading members of the Buffalo Philharmonic Orchestra. New Music Building The new Music Building is located at 260 Winspear Aye., bordering on the campus, not far from the Maintenance Building and the Gymnasium. On the main floor, in addition to the office, is a class room. Available for small recitals, it has a Steinway grand piano and will have a small Schlicker practice organ. On the same floor is the music library, which will contain a fine set of music and recordings. On the second floor are three large rooms for private teaching and practising, each equipped with piano and phonograph. the basement are five practice rooms and a library for phonograph listening. The Music Building is open week days from 9:00 A.M. to 10:00 P.M.. and Saturdays from 9:00 A.M. to 1:00 P.M. There is always an attendant in charge, and reservations for practice rooms can be made by In telephone. No finer gift could be made to a new Department than that which was recently made possible by Mrs. Dorothy Simon, when she established the D. Bernard Simon Scholarship Fund. It will provide funds to music students who cannot afford any or part of the costs of instruction. Many friends of the Simon family and others interested in the University have contributed to this fund. Two students are already receiving help, and it will be the means of helping many more music studnts, who could not otherwise study here. Certainly no Department could ask for a finer start than this, and with a hard-working faculty and the fine support of our friends and alumni, we will strive to make the University proud of its youngest child.

Chancellor T. Raymond McConnell presided at the ceremonies and described the halls as another step in the continual development of the University. Dr. McConnell especially credited Miss Lillias M. Macdonald, former dean of women and now assistant director of alumni relations, and Mr. Lewis G. Harriman, chairman of the University Council's finance committee, as leaders among those who recognized and constantly worked for the student residences. "The residences will become a nucleus of student activities," the Chancellor stated. "Students will gain invaluable experience in human values and relations by living in them, and they will learn the art of gracious the erection of living." The Chancellor added that already in the planningstage are three more residence halls, two of them to be combined into a single unit. Mr. Seymour H. Knox, chairman of the University Council, paid tribute to the persons in whose honor the halls are named. Dean Macdonald for whom Macdonald Hall is named, participated in the ceremonies. Carlton P. Cooke, son of Walter P. Cooke for whom Cooke Hall is named, and J. Fred Schoellkopf IV, grandson of Jacob F. Schoellkopf for whom Schoellkopf Hall is named, also participated. More than two thousand parents of students visited campus and participated with their sons and daughters FOR THEIR DREAMS, THREE BEAUTIFUL MEMORIALS Left to right, CarltonP.

Weber, Law School freshman and president of the student government, and Miss Elfriede Usanker, student chairman of Parents Day, presided and introduced the Chancellor and several of the TJni- versity administrative officers. CAFETERIAS AND PRIVATE DINING ROOMS IN NORTON'S ADDITION �10 FROM 1954 ENGAGEMENT CALENDAR Fund Class Agents Meet at Reception Nearly two hundred class agents the Alumni Loyalty Fund gathered enthusiastically October Bth at their reception to inspire each other and "kick off" the 1953 drive for annual alumni gifts to the University. of This year the University of Buffalo is publishing for the first time a pictorial engagement calendar. It is of convenient desk size, and presents 31 full-page photographs of the campus and student activities. The calendars will be sold by the University of Buffalo Women's Club and student and alumni organizations. The intention is to provide a handsome engagement calendar which will show a variety of University scenes, pay for itself, and give various voluntary organizations working for the University an opportunity to add to their funds. It is hoped that amateur photographers will submit photographs to the calendar, so that eventually it will become an annual pictorial album of life at the University of Buffalo. The Alumnae Association is selling the calendars. The cost is only $1.00 and a call to the Alumni Office, UN 9300, or a call to Mrs. Barresi at WI 0491 will assure your getting a copy in the next mail. Railroad Officials Confer Top officials of 12 local railroads are scheduling conferences on the University of Buffalo campus. They are members of the Niagara Frontier Railroad's Committee on Community Relations. The purpose of the conferences is to broaden eastern railroads' community relations. French Professor Here Dr. Raymond Polin, a philosophy professor at the University of Lille, is at the University of Buffalo this year. He is the visiting professor of French, here with the help of the Mrs. Joseph T. Jones Foundation. Chairman Harry G. LaForge, MD '34, reminded the agents of their effective participation in the University's Development Campaign, during which alumni pledged nearly one and a half million dollars. Since the Alumni Loyalty Fund was suspended for the year that the Campaign was in operation, he emphasized that ClassAgents should cite the splendid record of the alumni for the Campaign and urge them to continue their fine givingrecord through the Alumni Loyalty Fund this year. Dr. G. Lester Anderson, University's Dean of Administration, praised the alumni for their work in the past and especially in the Development Campaign. Dr. Anderson went on to point out twenty-two outstanding' educational achievements of the University during- the last year and suggested to the Class Agents that they emphasize them in their letters to their classmates. Among the achievements he highlighted were the establishments of a department of music, training of museum administrators and personnel, new courses in fine arts on the campus, the new summer workshop in higher education during the summer, and the Air Force R. O. T. C. on campus. Dr. Anderson also pointed to several other expansions and developments in the educational programs of various divisions of the University as reason indeed for stimulatingfinancial support from alumni. Dr. Claude E. Puffer, Treasurer of the University, delighted the Class Agents with his reminisences and his accountings of what the money brought in by the agents from alumni had meant in terms of the welfare of the students. Director of Alumni Relations T. W. Van Arsdale, Jr., BA'3B, MA'4O, also spoke briefly, outlining the instructions for the mailing of the letters to the alumni. �11 Dental Alumni Elect Battista, '24 An Open Letter to Women Grand: A comprehensive and distinguished professional education program featured the 51st Annual Meeting of the Congratulations Gals: You certainly started the ball rolling at the first meeting of the Dental Alumni Association on October 6th and 7th at Hotel Statler.

From it have come ideas which have had many interesting results. The three new student dormitories, the new building for the medical and dental schools, and the new addition to Norton Hall resided for a long while in the "Possible Projects" file before they became visible on the campus. The "Possible Projects" file is still bulging. In it are plans, hopes and dreams of many kinds. Some are obviously necessary for the immediate future, and await only the needed resources. Others seem visionary, but may grow feasible as time goes on—after all, a blueprint of the University of Buffalo as it is now would have seemed visionary as little as ten years ago. A private university is bounded only by the resources and will of those who are part of it—the students, faculty members, alumni, businesses,industries and individual benefactors who support it. Fully developed plans for a new Science Building designed to provide much needed space for additional classrooms and research laboratories are in the "Possible Projects" file. Blueprints for three new student dormitories are there along with a Fine Arts building. Plans for the development of many aspects of the University's program fill a large part of the folder. It's hard to tell what will come out of the "Possible Projects" file in the immediate future, but one can be sure that it won't be forgotten. In the past ten years, it hasn't gathered much dust. Conference Concerns Carbon Research Once Worked as Slave for Nazis The third in a series of conferences designed to acquaint local industries with research projects and facilities of the University was held Nov. 12 A Ukranian youth who was a German captive during War n fulfilled a dream this fall when he enrolled in the University's School of Business Administration. He is Alexander Hromockyj, a nephew of Mrs. Rosie Tkach of Lackawanna. Mr. Hromockyj has experienced the extremes of militaryservice —forced farm labor for the Germans in War II and intelligence work with the U. S. Army in Korea recently. With his father, he was taken from his home in Sambir by the German Army of Occupation as a hostage and slave laborer when the Army withdrew from Ukraine in 1944. After the war he finished high school in Germany and then with his father came to this country in 1949. thanks to the efforts of Mrs. Tkach. Drafted, he served for 16 months in Korea as a member of a military intelligence unit. Two things are uppermost in his mind now. He wants to complete his college education and some day open a business of his own. Secondly, he is concerned about his mother, three sisters and two brothers, whom he hasn't heard from since he was taken from his home. Norton Hall on the campus. The subject of the conference was "The Physics of Carbons." The University in 1949 established the only university physics laboratory in the country devoted to carbon research. Representatives of companies in Pennsylvania, Ohio, Michigan and Illinois, as well as Western New York, attended the sessions. in Dr. Lyle W. Phillips, chairman of the department of physics, presided at both the morning and afternoon sessions. Chancellor T. Raymond McConnell welcomed guests at 10 o'clock. "Electronic Properties of Carbons and Graphite" was discussed by Harry T. Pinnick, physics research assistant. and "Mechanical Strength and Structure of Carbons" by Dr. Stanislaw Mrozowski, professor of physics. At the afternoon session, Dr. John G. Castle, Jr., discussed "Heat Conduction in Carbon Materials." Dr. Castle is research associate in physics. Dr. Phillips outlined the work of the Research Laboratories, preceding a tour of inspection. Past Presidents of Norton Have Reunion Past presidents of the Student Board of Managers, the student governing body of the University, gathered for a reunion luncheon on Parents' Day, November 14th, in the private dining rooms in the new $400,000 addition to Norton Hall. William H. Weber, present president, was master of ceremonies at the luncheon which commemorated the 20th anniversary of Norton Hall, the student union building built in 1934. Miss Dorothy M. Haas, BS(Bus)'32, director of Norton Hall, introduced the past presidents and Robert Parke, first and only other director of Norton. Among the former presidents attending was first president Robert J. Winegar, BS(Bus)'34, and Nancy Lou Knowlton Binder, BA'36; Carmen Tillinghast Herlan, BA'44; Edward A. Dunlap, Jr., BA'47; Pat Morganstern Meier, BA'45; Gail Hotelling, BS (Bus)'47; Leeland N. Jones, BA'4B; Theodore W. Breach, BS(Bus)'51; Jack Keller, BS(Bus)'s2; and James R. Buckley, BS(Phar)'s3. They Are Young But They're Willing Two 10-year-old boys walked into the University's Placement Bureau one afternoon to apply for jobs as space men. They said they'd read about the job in The Buffalo Evening News the day before. Bureau Director Robert F. Rupp, BA'4B, told the boys that The News story had referred to a request, long since filled, for a University student to pose as a space man at a children's carnival. "The space man had to be at least 20 years old," Mr. Rupp explained, "but if you boys come back in ten years we'll see what we can do." The News story described the work of the placement bureau and some of the requests it has received for students to fill unusual jobs. �// Faculty You'll Remember: MARY CUMPSON Assistant Professor of Business English, Special Adviser to Students of Business Administration, There's an adage, well known to alumni of the School of Business Administration, to the effect that a visit to the office of Miss Cumpson is an A-l remedy for registration blues, mid-term melancholy, or any of the myriad aches and pains of undergraduate ills. Graduates of all divisions of the University will be happy to learn that such is still the case. Interviewing some individuals is admittedly a tough assignment, to say the least. Not so with Mary Cumpson, for she still exhibits that infectious charm that so easily disguises her welcome counsel. Small seek her out areas of advisement. wonder students in all Indeed, this native Illinoisan is a "fellow student". Her innate enthusiasm, vigor, and interest in student activity, not to mention campus growth, make her a "natural" for the positions she holds. Arriving in Buffalo at a very early age when her father entered business ventures in this area, Mary Cumpson attended the public schools and then the Franklin School now known as the Elmwood-Franklin School. Strangely enough, her career in academics has been from temporary to permanent in each case. While visiting a ranch in Wyoming, shortly after receiving her AB in Economics and Greek from Vassar, she received notice that a replacement teacher was needed for English subjects at the Franklin School. Accepting the assignment on a three-months basis, Miss Cumpson taught at the institution for five years. Sooner or later her vivaciousness had to lead her to the world of big business and thus it was that she entered the firm of O'Brian Potter & Company for a twelve-year stint as bond saleswoman. Again, moving on, as did her pioneer grandparents who early settled Illinois in spite of Indians and hardships of all types, Miss Cumpson accepted her second academic appointment. This one, also for three months, still continues, having lasted twentyone years at the University of Buf- falo. For fifteen years she was Secretary of the School of Business Administration and she has taught Business English since 1947. Hundreds of World War IIstudents, alumni, and their families will forever remember and thank Mary Cumpson for her devotion and interest in providing the mimeographed letters that went out four times a year during that conflict, in order that servicemen and their University friends could keep in touch with one another. So complete was her "intelligence" procedure that friends now chuckle to recall her item dealing with the advanced training assignment of one of "her boys". Complete, even to location, the article dealt with one of the army's most hush-hush European invasion training bases. Those personally acquainted with Mary Cumpson will enjoy picturing her conscientious embarrassment over the situation. Miss Cumpson currently teaches three daytime sections and one evening class. This, we all realize, is minor time expended when compared to the hours she devotes to troubled students, especially the freshman class. One has to spend only a moment in her company to realize that Mary Cumpson embodies all the spirit of student freedom and academic tradition which has made our institution great. She enjoys observing the differences in age groupings of various classes and the type of work developed by each, more as a challenge to her duties than as idle observation. .. Certainly classes change, likes and yet Mary Cumpson dislikes vary remains the one top authority students may refer to when it comes to seeking advice on their adaptability for business education as well as determining their ultimate goals in academic endeavors. �14 When They Win, They Really Win! CAGERS BOOKED FOR 23-GAME SCHEDULE University's Basketball-Bulls will meet twenty-three teams during their 1953-54 season—and good ones, too! Schedule prospects have been enough to persuade Coach Mai Eiken to institute the toughest drill season in his six years as Blue and White basketball coach. As he saw it, his first duty was to cut the number of squad candidates from thirty to the desired twelve. This meant cutting some upper classmen who could have been used in previous seasons, in favor of the sophomores and juniors who show a wealth of potential. In previous years, Eiken has carried a squad of fifteen, using the spares only when a one-sided score permitted. Victorious Bulls' Locker Room Scene "Operation Turnout", sponsored by the University Air Force ROTC Unit, provided one thousand cheering cadets and officers with the thrill of a lifetime as Cadet Captain Elmer Jahn ran up 123 yards in 15 rushes, scored one touchdown and led the Bulls to their only victory of the season. It was Jahn's last game for the Blue and White. The team, responding to the cadet corps' support, totaled 305 yards on the ground and 55 in the air as they downed a highly-favored Ohio Northern University squad 20 to 0. This ended the season with one win, five one tie and one cancellation due to snow conditions. Also playing their final game for Buffalo were seniors Ray Chamberlin, guard and season-captain; Bill Frilosses, day, tackle; Charles O'Brien, end; Laßocque, center; Elmer Jahn, fullback; Ernie Kiefer, tackle; and center Ed Hoeflich. In keeping with previous years' custom, Coach Fritz Febel named each of these seniors as game captains during the season. "The cadet corps of the University shares the glory of this victory with Ron the team and words cannot express our appreciation adequately" was the way Fritz Febel described the win. Incidentally, no less than seven squad members also are cadets. The season resume follows: BUFFALO OPP. Bucknell 6 35 Cortland 12 12 Lehigh 27 0 6 W. Reserve 26 Findlay 34 0 Alfred 47 0 20 Ohio Northern 0 WON 1 LOST 5 TIED 1 CANCELLED 1 <St. Lawrence game cancelled due to snow conditions in Civic Stadium.) Varsity Out for "Blood" Fencers 1 Determined to keep the North Atlantic Intercollegiate Fencing Conference Trophy, the varsity fencers, under the guidance of Coach Sid Schwartz, BS(Bus>'4o, are off to a roaring start with daily workouts which show considerable improvement in squad strength. The Bulls have won the trophy two years in a row and hope to repeat this season. They will also participate in the NCAA Fencing Championships at the University of Chicago, following the close of the campaign. Listed among their opponents are Notre Dame. Ohio State, Michigan State, Canisius, St. Lawrence, Oberlin, and other traditionallytough rivals. Designed for this type of play and coaching, the present crew is "green," to say the least. They number seven sophomores, three juniors, and two seniors. The tallest man is sophomore Len Saltman at 6' 4". The shortest is 5' 11", a category shared bysophomores Ernie Benoit and Dave Levitt, and senior Bob Scamurra, the latter remembered for his speed and rugged play last sason. Stand-out and scoring star will no doubt continue to be "Jumpin' Jim" Home, a junior, who has amassed 810 points in two seasons and is expected to break the career record of Hal Kuhn, '52, who ran up 1065 points in three years of varsity play. Yes, it's a green but "eager" club which should get off to a slow start, smooth out, and really put on the speed at the three-quarter mark.

And we say your magazine because it is planned and written for you, the alumni of the University, in the hope that it will help keep you informed about the University and the affairs of your fellow-alumni. "Go-To-Press" day is a hectic one for the office staff. The material which has accumulated over a month is checked and re-checked for accuracy in names, dates, and degrees; photos and cuts are hunted; special feature articles are edited for style and space allocation; and current news is written up. Then the mass of typewritten material ("copy") is sent to the printer. He sends "galley proofs" back to us a few days later. These are proofs of the type set from our "copy", and they are checked for typographical errors and rechecked for accuracy in names, dates,and degrees. One set of "galley proofs" is then cut up and pasted on a "dummy" to indicate to the printer the placement of type and articles. Headlines are written, pasted in place, and the size and style of type to be used is noted. In the meantime, the cover photo has been taken and a photo-engravingmade to exact size. All of this is returned to the printer. , A few days later "page proof" comes to us—proofs of what the pages look like after our placement of articles and features and pictures. The staff does a final check for accuracy and may move several of the items for better lay-out. The actual printing follows, then the binding, and then we receive the 22,000 copies. Addressing takes about three days and the 22,000 are then sorted according to city and state for mailing. The whole process takes about one month and, in our view, is well worth it. Naturally, we'd like to know what you think. And don't omit constructive suggestions either.

C. change my address to this You may be interested to know that Gallaudet College is the only college for the deaf in the world. All instruction Is carried on in the language of signs. After my graduation from the U. B. in June. 1951, I obtained a fellowship here and taught Preparatory (12th grade) science while studying for my MA in the field of education of the deaf. Upon completion of these studies in May. 1953. I obtained a position here as instructor of science and chemistry. I am rather proud to have graduated from the U. 8., since there have been only a handful of totally deaf students who have done so before me. I would like to thank those students who acted as notetakers for me and also those professors who gave me a little more time than was allotted to each student. DONALD O.

This evening view of Edmund Hayes Hall represents only a portion of the lights which pierce the twilight shadows of the North Main Campus. Inside the stately halls some 3700 students pursue approximately 300 courses in Millard Fillmore College, evening division of the University.

THE UNIVERSITY OF BUFFALO ALUMNI BULLETIN Publishedfive times during the year in October, December, February, April, and June, by the University of Buffalo at 3435 Main St., Buffalo 14, N. Y. Entered as second class matter Feb. 24, 1934 at the post office at Buffalo N. V., under the Act of August 24, 1912. Acceptance for mailing at the special rate of postage provided for in Section 1103, Act of Oct. 3, 1917, authorized April 4, 1926. MEMBER OF THE AMERICAN ALUMNI COUNCIL PLEASE NOTIFY US OF CHANGE OF ADDRESS �/ Albright Art School JoinsThe University The Albright Art School, together with its physical assets including its. building on Elmwood Avenue, will be incorporated with the University. The change in management will be effected by a proposal authorized by the General Administration committee of the University which, upon the recommendation of the Art School committee, was accepted by the Board of Directors of the Buffalo Fine Arts Academy, of which the Art School is a part, at a meeting on December 18. Both the University and the Fine Arts Academy have authorized their officers to prepare a contract for the transfer of the property. The new arrangement will become effective July 1. The Albright Art School willretain its name, but it will function as a division of the University's College of Arts and Sciences. Samuel D. Magavern, LLB'29, chairman of the Art School committee, in commenting on the change said, "The basic purpose of this transfer is to enable the Art School, with its constantly expanding program, to serve the community better. The history of art schools shows that art education is more effective when it is related to a general education program which only a university can offer." Professor John I. Sewall, chairman of the Art Department of the University, has long urged this development and will continue to be in charge of the work in Art History, it was announced by the University. The University also announced that Mr. Philip C. Elliott, now Director of the Art School, will continue to head the Art School under the new arrangement. The University will make it possible for all students now enrolled in the Art School to finish programs in which they have already registered. Classes will continue in the Elmwood Avenue building. Evening and Saturday classes now given in the Albright Art School will be continued in association with Millard Fillmore College, and art classes for children will still be offered under the new arrangement. Mr. Seymour H. Knox, president of the Board of Directors of the Buffalo Fine Arts Academy, and chairman of the University Council, in commenting on the change said, "I have been interested in both the Art School and the University for many years, and Highlights of Chancellor's Annual Report of Academic Year 1952-1953 Last month Chancellor T. R. McConnell submitted his report for the academic year 1952-53 to the University Council. Submitted with it were the Treasurer's Report and the report of Mr. Karr Parker, chairman of the Committee on Buildings and Grounds. From these reports three basic facts became clear: (1) The University of Buffalo must continue to grow; (2) The University has a great underlying need for more endowment funds; and (3) The University has made extraordinary progress in the past three years. it makes me very happy to see their forces joined in such a constructive way, and to see art education continued in such capable hands." The Art School has 360 students now enrolled. In addition, 190 persons are attending night classes there, and 162 more are enrolled in Saturday classes. The Albright Art School, formerly known as the School of Fine Arts, was formed in 1894 with the incorporation of the Art Students League of Buffalo. The original part of the building on Elmwood Avenue now occupied by the Art School was presented to the Buffalo Fine Arts Academy in 1928 by Col. Charles Clifton. The building was expanded in 1936 and in 1945 to accommodate the expanding program of art education. The Art School formed an association with the University of Buffalo in 1935 by which degree courses in art were instituted. The Art School is nationally known, and is a charter member of the National Association of Schools of Design. CHANCELLOR ANNOUNCES RESIGNATION Chancellor T. Raymond McConnell has announced resignation of his administrative duties at tlie University of Buffalo to devote himselfto teaching, writing and research at the University of California, beginning: next Fall. The resignation announcement came on February Ist, just as the Alumni Bulletin was going to press. Mr. Seymour H. Knox, Chairman of the University Council, said a committee of council and faculty members will be appointed to choose a new chancellor. On the inside of this bulletin is reHinted a long-range building plan or the University which accompanied Mr. Parker's report. This plan, which fives a picture of how the campus may eventually look, is the natural utgrowth of many facts presented in K>th the Chancellor'sand Mr.Parker's eports. The Reasons for Growth "Arecent study of population trends has indicated that higher education as a whole must be prepared for a great increase in enrollment during the next ifteen years," Chancellor McConnell tates in his report. "It has been esti-nated that the number of young eople of college age in New York State will increase about 65% by 970. It has been predicted that for the country as a whole we may expect an enrollment increase in higher eduation from the present total of about ,500,000 to 3,000,000 by 1960 or earlier; to 4,000,000 by 1965; and to ,000,000 by 1970. It is important for ne University of Buffalo to prepare areful plans for serving its share of tlis larger college population." Flan Is for Near and Distant Future Chancellor McConnell and Mr. Parker emphasized that the building ilan is simply part of a continuing program to enable the University to trepare for both the near and distant uture, rather than any new decision. Actual construction of the buildings will of course depend on when the reuired funds become available, and on riorities set by the University Counll. A new building for the Physics >epartment and an additional men's (continued on next page) �4 THE UNIVERSITY MUST GROW dormitory are thought of as imme- diate necessities to be constructed as soon as possible. A Fine Arts Center, an addition to Samuel P. Capen Hall for Cardio-Vascular research, and a new Townsend Hall to be located on the campus are thought of as steps which should be taken after more immediate needs have been met. The other buildings suggested on the plan —additional residence halls, and various ways of increasing classroom and laboratory space will probably be — made necessary eventually by increased enrollments, but no attempt has been made to set even approximate dates for construction. The Cost of Construction The cost of a Physics Building which would include not only the requirements of the Physics Department, but also 17 classrooms and 14 offices for general purposes, would be approximately $1,200,000. The cost of each new student dormitory with 149 beds would be approximately $475,000. At the present time it would not be practical to attempt to estimate costs for those buildings on the plan which are being considered for the more distant future. Attention is now being concentrated on the Physics Building. In his report, the Chancellor states, "Adequate quarters for the Physics Department cannot be much longer postponed, and with large enrollment increases in prospect, more classroom and office space must be secured." INCREASED ENDOWMENT IS NECESSARY In the academic year 1939-40, the University of Buffalo had a total of only 5285 students. Nine years later, had more than doubled —in 1948-49, it was 13,563. In 1952-53 the enrollment had dropped to 11,251. This was a much smaller decrease in enrollment than many urban and state universities experienced after the postwar peak, and as has been pointed out, enrollments are expected to increase steadily during the next 20 years. These fluctuations in the number of students at the university of Buffalo of course have many causes, the printhe enrollment cipal ones being changes in the birth rate, war, government subsidized edu- for veterans, and economic conditions. The effect of these fluctuations in student enrollment on the University are of course enormous. Even with its present enrollment, the University is seriously overcrowded. Plans for larger enrollments must be made before additional thousands of students arrive, not after. The difficulty in financing advance preparations for increased enrollment and in maintaining progress between peaks of enrollments is exemplified by one statistic in the Treasurer's report: almost 90% of the University's uncation restricted income for general and educational purposes conies from student fees. "It is highly significant that student fees provide so great a proportion of the University income for educational and general purposes," the Treasurer's report states. "Since student fees fluctuate directly with student enrollment, even moderate changes in the enrollment picture may drastically affect the operations of the University. It emphasizes the underlying need of the University for additional gifts for endowment purposes to permit long-range planning of educational programs." GREAT PROGRESS HAS BEEN MADE In spite of the necessity for preparing for much larger enrollments, and the need for more endowment, the University of Buffalo has made astonishing progress in the past three years, the 1952-53 reports show. Faculty salaries and retirement benefits have been substantially improved. A total of 29 new developments in education, research and service, some of which are described on the back of this bulletin, are listed in the Chancellor's report. The value of the land, buildings and equipment as carried on the University's balance sheet increased from $9,971,760 on June 30, 1951 to $15,717,188 on June 30, 1953. These figures reflect the construction of Samuel P. Capen Hall, the new building for the medical and dental schools, and three new dormitories, Cooke, Schoellkopf and Macdonald Halls. All four of these buildings were completed in 1953. Inaddition, a new wing was added to Norton Union in the fall of 1953, but that occurred during the 1953-54 academic year. Figures from the 1952-53 Treasurer's Report The gross earned income for 1952-53 was $4,724,150.09. Expenditures were $4,750,590.64, resulting in a deficit of $26,440.55 for the year. Of the $4,724,150.09 listed as gross income, $4,308,211.22 was educational and general income—the remainder was paid to auxiliary enterprises such as the University bookstore, residence halls and cafeteria. A total of $3,068,-604.89, or 87.66% of the unrestricted general and educational income, came from student fete. The total endowment assets of the University and funds temporarily functioning as endowment assets are listed in the treasurer's report as $7,965,769.39. The income from endowment during the 1952-53 academic year was $345,354.07, or only 9.87% of the unrestricted general and edu- cational income. During 1952-53, the endowment funds of the University were increased approximately $345,000. By the fall of 1953, the development campaign announced in July, 1952, had brought in subscriptions amounting to $2,700,000. "This was still $800,000 short of the modest goal of $3,500,000 announced at the beginning of the intensive campaign," the Chancellor points out. "It is essential to attain this goal at the earliest possible moment" �5 LONG RANGE PLAN FOR UNIVERSITY of BUFFALO EXISTING BUILDINGS SHOWN IN BLACK PROPOSED SHOWN IN OUTLINE LEGEND A. B. C. D. E. F.

Capen Hall, the University's new Medical Dental Building on the campus, on December 11th and 12th. The activities formally opened the services of the building to the citizens of Western New York, the nation, and the world. Moreover, the ceremonies honored, as John M. Russell, Executive Director of the Markle Foundation, stated it, "The cornerstone of this building not the one made of stone but the real one the Sam Capen". one made by a man "Above all", Dr. Russell concluded, "I hope you will never forget that Chancellor Capen has been the watchdog of your freedom. Accept and protect this heritage and may what you do here be worthy of the name Samuel P. Capen Hall." - — — — — Dr. Capen Speaks Deeply moved, yet enjoying the day of reunion and ceremonies perhaps more than any other person present, Dr. Capen replied, in part, "For me, and I hope for you, these exercises symbolize the union at their base of the two great professions devoted to the healing art; the reunion, in fact, of Medicine and Dentistry, after a century of unnatural separation. "In this reunion I have believed firmly, almost passionately, for a peri- time that statisticians call a generation. Toward the reunion the University of Buffalo has been making, for a generation, such contributions as lay within its power. Others than I, many of whom are no longer here, have borne the real heat and burden of the day in all that the University has tried to do to advance this purpose. But I have survived. And now I receive the lasting memorial, which I cannot redistribute to those who rightly should share it. To quote Hamlet: 'There's the respect that makes calamity of so long life. "But I would not be misunderstood. I do not imply that for me it is a calamity. It is rather for me a source of deep gratitude and pride that so manyof my colleagues have approved what is here being consummated." od of Chancellor T. Raymond McConnell, speaking of the newest campus structure, pointed out that, "If a magician had waved a wand and produced a large, handsome and useful building, we would have called it a miracle. But because men made it we tend to take it for granted. Yet there was a miracle involved even though the construction took a little more time than miracles are supposed to consume. So let us not take this building for granted. The fact that there was no magic involved in its creation should make us all the more grateful for it, for instead of magic there were more precious ingredients: the hard work of many men, men of vision, generosity, wisdom, and immense good will." Citing Dr. Capen's leadership and teachings, Chancellor McConnell continued, "This is Dr. Capen's day. Yet I know that he has come here as much to honor as to be honored. I am sure he joins me today in expressing the gratitude of the University toward all who have helped to make this dedication possible". Alumni Luncheon Friday evening's dinner was followed by the alumni luncheon on Saturday, each held in spacious Clark Memorial Gymnasium. Instrumental in the arrangements were: Waring A. Shaw, BA'3l, luncheon chairman; and University's Assistant Treasurer, Emily H. Webster, BA'23, and Nancy Lou Knowlton Binder, BA'36. Their arrangements, decorations and hospitality assured a perfect climax for the hundreds attending. The climax of Saturday's luncheon program was embodied in the presentation of these University citations to these alumni and civic leaders: DR. CHARLES F.

A private university in our society. A state university in our society. It is recorded that when Gladstone was shown the electromagnetic motor of Faraday he inquired "What good is it ?" and the inventor countered "What good is a baby?" A baby is created, it grows, develops, reaches adult life, fulfills itself and becomes a personality within Ms given time. There may be, however, inherent in that baby the potentials of genius—talents to change the whole course of history and of nations. In similar vein, I postulate, "What good is a private university ?" A university is created, grows, develops, expands and is responsive to social changes and its environment. It behaves like an organic body and undergoes a social evolution and assumes a function of adaptation. University Accepts Ideas The university accepts ideas, engages in speculation and research. In time it organizes them into the body of knowable knowledge. However, these functions of a university would be of slight avail if they were to remain enclosed within the walls of the university. teachers, research workers and students. It is the great distributing center for what it observes, develops and records. Its accomplishments are entirely pragmatic and become incorporated into the life of the people as applied science and technology. However, in a larger sense, there are the ethical or esthetic accomplishments of a university, essentially the things of the spirit and which are the collected heritage of the centuries. Transmission to the world of the developed knowledge made by the university is no less essential than its discovery. If the discovery of Insulin by Banting at Guelph, Ontario, remained local it might just as well have been as if it had never been discovered. If the astronomical investigations of Ptolemy had not been preserved and recorded it would be as if the sun, earth and stars had never been observed or their orbits calculated. Universities Imperishable We visualize a university as having an imperishable life. History records that with rare exceptions seats of learning such as universities have been preserved regardless of the time in which they lived. Because I am a physician I must from training take some of my examples from the field of medicine. The writings of Hippocrates show a science created by observation, recording, comparison and deductions. Thus, the earliest of the systematized exploration of medical problems would have been lost to the world but for its preservation by a peripatetic group of scholars —a migratory university, if you will—the Nestorians who carried some of the manuscripts ofHippocrates from Constantinople, via Asia Minor and Palestine, along the north African shore of the Mediterranean. These, sometime later, became the property of the Moors and are found in the teachings of Jewish physicians. They were transplanted to Spain and finally became the ignition spark for the creation of the University of Salerno in Italy at about 1109 A. D. The University at that time, I may remark, was only a medical college. From this small (continuedon next page) �8 Dr. Heyd's Address on the Independent University (continued) inheritance was to rise the universities of Europe and America. Time in the life of a university embraces generations and is not limited by the Biblical observation of three score and ten years. It is recorded that a physician who lived in the shadow of the Pyramids recently made a visit to New York and his host, showing him the Rockefeller Center, inquired "What do you think of these buildings?" The Egyptian made the cryptic remark that he would have to wait a thousand years before he could give an opinion. A New Epoch We are all aware that with the dedication of the new building, the Samuel P. Capen Hall of the Schools of Medicine and Dentistry, a new epoch has taken place in the development and progress of the University of Buffalo. It is of the greatest import that we have private universities in our society. It is important that the private university have a place of origin and that it be maintained in relation to both the local society and the enlarging society of the nation. It gives a name to a local habitation. How few of us would recall Oxford or Cambridge in England or Baltimore in the United States without the thought of the universities that are situated there. It is not my purpose on this brief occasion to contrast the private university with the state university. Each has a well-earned place in the educational system. However, I should like to refer to certain aspects and functions that are inherent in the university that is maintained by private funds. The private university sets the standard for our educational, teaching and research patterns. A few years ago, at a dinner, I was sitting next to the late Fiorello La Guardia, then Mayor of the City of New York. The topic of our conversation was that the voluntary hospitals were struggling under a debtload which threatened their existence. The Mayor replied "Good. I will take them over tomorrow." I gently suggested that it would be very unwise politically and an injustice to the people of New York to do so, and moreover, "Without the private voluntary hospitals your municipal hospitals will have no standard of comparison: it is the standard of the vol- untary hospital systems that demands that the municipal hospitals shall at least try to approach them in management and services." After a moment of deliberation, he expostulated "I think you are right." One of the most important conditions that must govern the educational, teaching and research programs of a university is the free spirit of inquiry. This is only possible if the environment is propitious and its financial solvency is assured. Financial support for the private university must come, over the years, from industry, foundations, generous donors and the summation of subscriptions from the citizens and the alumni of the university. It has always seemed to me to be a great psychological difference between the issuance of bonds by the state to pay for a university and the private contributions for endowment and maintenance of a private university. In the issuance of bonds by the government, the individual is a voter and a tax payer. In a contribution to a university the same individual is a member of the group, is part of the plan and assists in the fulfillment of a great human undertaking. His gift is personal, he is part of the university. "He who pays the piper may call the tune." "To The Living Spirit" Some years after the termination of World War I a few outstanding citizens of the United States gave a new building to the University of Heidelberg. On the lintel of the door was the simple inscription "To the Living Spirit." It is significant that the donors selected a university to bear the inscription, better perhaps, to indicate that the soul of man is immortal and marches through the ages. In simple fact, the university is the best mechanism in our society for the preservation of the universal spirit of mankind. Today, in the words of John Buchan, the human soul is in danger and its integrity and independence is under attack. The danger is increasing with an accelerated tempo and the impact of the assault comes from two sources: (a) the peril of the mass with its ideology of statism and the belief that the state is an end in itself and the citizen is expendable as an animated cog in the vast machinery of the all powerful state: (b) the second source of impact is the extraordinary development of the machine, with efficiency as its watchword and served by human robots. In short, an almost complete cancellation of the individual spirit and personality of man. If these surmises be correct—or approximately correct—a new orientation of thinking becomes necessary and society must turn to the privately supported and endowed universities for the answer. They are the repository of the knowable knowledge and the cultural heritage of the people. They have the direction, the organization, the teachers and the research workers to combat these impacts. The universities represent and practice the finest example of a spiritual and ethical democracy. Within the domain of their influence there is knowledge, freedom of thought and expression, liberty for disinterested speculation and facilities for pure research without being shackled by technological application and utilitarianism. From their domains of influence there radiate impulses for better education and increasing concern for the religious, moral, esthetic and ethical qualities of life. Touches lives of All of Us The universities represent, in the words of Plato, the spirit of inquiry and life without which it is not worth living. Just so long as we maintain private universities shall we preserve the individual with his talents, and the individual endowed with unusual mental capacity, just so long- will we maintain our civilization and our way of life. It has been written "I am a part of all I have met." It can be said with all sincerity that the University of Buffalo touches the lives of all of us. The present knowledge must be taught and the exploration for new knowledge vigorously carried out; the reciprocal relationship of all segments of society investigated and promoted; the acceptance of free enterprise as a guiding principle be continued and enlarged; the humanities be made "obligatory elections" and pragmatic studies be part of the university concept. All of these desired ends require executive and administrative capacity of highly competent individuals, under an alert Board of Trustees, enjoying (concluded on page 17) �7 ALUMNI CALENDAR "Sponsoring Associate" Plan Announced Feb. 13—RochesterAlumni Club Luncheon, Hotel Rochester, 12:30P.M., and to the basketball game with U. of R. in the to Industry and Business evening.

An invitation to become "sponsoring associates" of the University was recently made to leaders in business and industry on the Niagara Frontier. Dr. T. R. McConnell, chancellor, speaking to a group of representatives from firms and companies in the area at a luncheon in Norton Hall last month described the program. He said, "Business and industry alike discovered in recent years that a close alliance with an institution of higher education represents an investment in their future. The returns are substantial and lasting. The University is eminently fitted to be the partner of business and industry of the Niagara Frontier. It is a local institution with widespread recognition and provides a diversity in strength of teaching and research made possible only by the presence of an able faculty." Companies which contribute from $2500 to $5000 a year will be given senior membership status as sponsoring associates. The minimum fee for membership is $1000 a year. The money will be devoted to the support research, education and services in the fields in which "sponsoring asso- of ciates" are interested. In return for their investment the sponsoring associates will receive a number of University services. Con- ferences and lectures will be held so that members may keep up to date on the latest research and other developments; an annual dinner meeting will be held for company execu- tives of the sponsoring associates; priority will be given to the members in considering and arranging contracts for sponsored research; and many other services will be offered.

In Spring A Young And a Man's Fancy Woman Should Be, too! A touch of Spring prevails in the fashion world of Paris and New York. All the most appealing styles will be presented on Saturday, March 13, at the fifth annual Fashion ShowLuncheon at Hotel Statler sponsored by the Alumnae Association to benefit the Scholarship Fund. "She Walks in Beauty", Byron's famous line, is a most appropriate theme for the fashions which will be shown from Evelin's Delaware Dress Shop and Siegel's Millinery. The Fashion Forecast from the New York couture indicates gentle lines achieved with light fabrics mingling many colors and textures highlighting the fashions for Spring. The "rebels" in the ranks of the designers have left the field wide open and "the look" for this season offers a wealth of possibilities. This year, fashion dictates wearing skirts long or short, slim or full. One can find her most flattering type in any of the collections for Spring. Genevieve Butler Repp, Edß '44, chairman, has announced this committee for the Fashion Show and Luncheon: Mary Ellen Kennedy, Aex '49, models; Gloria Gress Dent, Edß '46, and Barbara Lewis Flynn, BA'53, publicity; Lenore O'Loughlin Barresi, Bex'4B, patrons; Jean Butler Whelan, Aex'49, program; Marilyn Robinson Millane, Edß'49, EdM'sl, advertising; Georgia Rung Underwood, ESe'so, and Sara Kennedy Wehling, BA'5l, reception. Also on the committee are: Helen Nauth Knight, BS(Bus)'44, reservations; Emily Deline Weeks, BA'4l, tickets; Betty Hellriegel Ortman, BA '39, luncheon; Gertrude Butler Fleming, BA'39, music; Janet Huber O'Brien, BA'42, commentator; Patricia A.

The proceeds from the Fashion Show will benefit two projects undertaken by the Alumnae Association, the Scholarship fund and the fund to furnish the main lounge in Macdonald Hall, the women's residence hall. Thank You, Mead Johnson & Co. The Bulletin is happy to accord space to the following letter from Stockton Kimball, MD'29, dean of the School of Medicine, to President Mead Johnson of the Mead Johnson & Company, a prominent pharmacal house, expressing a hearty "Thank You" for the financial contribution made by this concern toward the conduct of the highly successful Dedication Exercises for the new Medical-Dental Building. "Dear Mr. Johnson: "On behalf of the faculty and alumni of the University of Buffalo, I should like to express appreciation for the very generous unrestricted contribution of $3,000 made by Mead Johnson and Company to the University of Buffalo toward the expenses of the exercises held on December 11th and 12th, 1953, to celebrate the dedication of Samuel P. Capen Hall. "The high quality of the symposia on education, biological specificity, parenteral nutrition and oral surgery, resultant from the excellence of the speakers who participated, could not have been achieved without this splendid assistance. "Through the media of several appropriate publications such as The Bulletin of the Medical Society of the County of Erie and the University of Buffalo Alumni Bulletin, I am having the pleasure of bringing to the attention of the alumni and the profession the generous gift made by Mead Johnson and Company. "I should like to add my personal appreciation for the wisdom of your company in making a contribution of this nature." Why not plan now to get up a party of friends, neighbors, and former classmates and attend the Fashion Show to be held in the main ballroom of the Hotel Statler at 12:15 P.M. on Saturday, March 13, 1954. The Fashion Show has proved to be a highlight of the alumnae events for the past four years; the committee is confident it will be a most enjoyable and pleasant afternoon. Medical Alumni Clinic Features Distinguished Professional Program Medical Alumni President George M. Masotti, '33, and his program committee, headed by Edward D. Cook, '33, have lined up a distinguished program for the 17th Annual Medical Spring Clinical Day to be held at Hotel Statler on Saturday, March 20th. Featured in the day-long program for Medical Alumni and their colleagues are the annual luncheon, professional exhibits, morning and afternoon professional sessions, and quinquennial class reunions in the evening. The following papers will be given at the morning sessions: "Problems of Recuscitation of Newborn Infants", Richard Day, M.D., Professor of Pediatrics, State University of New York College of Medicine; "Treatment of Ulcerative Colitis; A Medical and Surgical Program", Garnet W. Alt, M.D., Professor of Proctology, Georgetown University; and "Portacaval Shunting for Portal Hypertension with Special Reference to Cirrhosis of the Liver", Arthur H. Blakemore, M.D., Assistant Professor of Surgery, Colleg of Physicians and Surgeons, Columbia University. Papers to be given in the afternoon include: "Early Diagnosis of PreMalignant Lesions of the Colon and Rectum", Neil W. Swinton, M.D., Department of Surgery, Leahy Clinic, Boston, Mass.; "Some Pitfalls in the Care of Cardiacs", Samuel A. Levine, M.D., Clinical Professor of Medicine, Harvard Medical School; and "Meas- ures in Prevention of Maternal Morbidity and Mortality", Robert A. Ross, M.D., Professor of Gynecology and Obstetrics, University of North Carolina. REGISTRATION UP SLIGHTLY Daytime and evening registration for the current academic year at the University is up three percent higher than last year, according to Registrar Emma Deters. The total registration is 9,509 as compared with 9,241 last year. Day registration is up a little more than four percent, increasing from 5,401 to 5,650. The rise in the evening enrollment is a little less than one percent, an increase in only twenty students over last year's 3,840. The largest increase in enrollment came in the School of Business Administration. �13 Over Half of University's Students Come From Beyond Buffalo by EdM'of Acti EdD'53 Students Deann48,g Jack M. Deeringer, The travel bulletin board in Norton Hall is being covered more and more by signs reading "Ride wanted to ". " or "Rider wanted to Most of these requests come from students on their way home for holiday periods. This is only one example of the ways by which we are being made aware of the broadening area from which students are coming to attend the University. The entering freshman class in the undergraduate divisions this fall is composed of graduates from 227 different secondary schools located in fifteen states and five countries. Over half of the group reside outside the city of Buffalo. Perhaps one may wonderhow these students become acquainted with the University. One way, of course, is the increase in the number of our alumni who are anxious for their sons and daughters to know about their own alma mater. Many alumni families are represented with second and third generations in the new residence halls. New CurriculaAttract The University itself has grown in prestige through the years because of its expanded facilities, its tradition, its faculty, and its constant effort to offer programs designed to meet the needs of as many college bound youth as possible. In addition to the wide variety of curricula within the College of Arts and Sciences, the programs in Education, Business Administration, Engineering, and Pharmacy, the University has more recently added many specialized programs. Among these are Physical Therapy, Medical and Ohio, and the Niagara Penninsula in Canada. Miss Dorothy Obrecht, Miss Alison Coatsworth, and Mr. John J. Keller, BA'52, the three admissions counselors, are constantly on the road acquainting" prospective students with our many programs of study and letting them know that the University may indeed have the right college program for them. In addition, there is an ever-growing number of written inquiries about the University received by the Office of Admissions Counseling. These are answered with pictorial materials designed to acquaint the writer with University course work in general and with campus life here in Buffalo. Detailed course information is mailed when needed. Whenever and wherever possible, a personal letter is sent to answer individual questions. with advisors in the many divisional offices, to meet students with whom they may some day attend classes. Students who will live on campus can see the living accommodations the University has to offer. Campus Visits Invited These two types of contacts are only the beginning of a very personalized procedure planned to give a prospective student a true understanding of life on the University of Buffalo campus. After hearing or reading about the University, students are urged to visit campus to see "college in action". Such a visit includes opportunity for both students and parents to see the campus itself, to talk Happiness Stressed This personalization in the handling of the prospective student is extremely important in a school as large as ours. Many of our students come from small high schools. If a student knows from the beginning that he is taking the right program of study, that he can find help when he needs it, and that his success and happiness are important to the University staff, (continued on page 13) It is to the Office of Admissions Counseling that the prospective stu- dent may turn for answers to any general questions about college. The office becomes a point of referral to the appropriate on-campus office for specific information in planning a freshman program, for part-time employment, scholarships, or housing.

The recommendations all approved by the faculty are the result of a Dean Drake self-study program sponsored at the college by the Ford Foundation. The report, based on interviews with faculty, alumni and students, stated that the college should help the student: I—To think clearly and to express himself effectively. 2—To develop a critical understanding of diverse beliefs and ways of life, together with a reasoned faith in the future of American democracy. 3—To prepare for effective participation in the world's work by developing creative, professional and administrative leadership. 4—To achieve an appreciation of man's cultural heritage in several realms of the arts and sciences. s—To5—To cultivate and maintain physical and mental health. The study was started a year ago under a grant of $22,200 to the university from the Ford Foundation Fund for the Advancement of Education. The university was one of 21 universities and colleges selected from 190 which applied for grants to undertake self-study programs. Dr. Richard M. Drake, assistant dean of the College of Arts & Sciences, was named director of the study conducted through questionnaires, personal interviews and discussion groups. Participants included over half the faculty, and a sampling of alumni and students. — — ThreePrograms Supported Dr. Drake, an advisory committee and other staff members compiled the data and presented it and their recommendations to the faculty. All rec- ommendations have been approved and will be put into effect soon. Dr. Drake said that "this self-study appraisal has demonstrated conclubively that a liberal arts faculty is capable of looking at itself, discovering and admitting its weaknesses, and recognizing its strong points." The report included recommendations for three of the programs conducted in the college: the tutorial plan, the free elective system with dual advisement, and the anticipatory examinations. Dr. Drake said that one of the recommendations to be followed will give an opportunity to all students to take advantage of the tutorial plan for at least one semester. In the past, he pointed out, tutorial instruction was available in some cases only to superior students, but the committee feels that the less than superior students may profit from the tutorial instruction as well as the higherranking ones. More Counselors Urged The faculty reaffirmed its belief in the free-elective system with dual advisement —a system whereby students select their own courses but get advice from both personnel officers and faculty members. However, the committee recommended the system be made more efficient by means of: I—An appreciable increase in the number of professionally-trained counselors in the office of the dean of students and in the time available for professional counseling. 2—A selected group of faculty advisers, appointed by the dean in consultation with the departments and the office of dean. 3—A special group of vocation counselors, chosen to represent the various professional schools and fields of concentration of the university, including medicine, dentistry, medical technology, law, social service, and education. Test Program Approved Also, to encourage all students, especially freshmen and sophomores, to aim at cultural breadth as well as vocational excellence in planning their college course, a comprehensive examination will be administered at the UNIVERSITY BRIEFS Dr. Pratt Honored Nationally-known historian Dr. Julius W. Pratt, Samuel P. Capen Professor of American History at the University who retired last year as dean of the Graduate School of Arts & Sciences, was honored last month by some one hundred colleagues and former students at a testimonial dinner in Norton Hall on the campus. Dr. John T. Horton, BA'26, present chairman of the History Department, presided and Chancellor T. Raymond McConnell was the principal speaker, the latter citing the fame which has accrued to the University through the writings and scholarship of Dr. Pratt since he joined the University faculty in 1926. Polio Grant The University's School of Medicine has received a five-year grant of $191,466 from the National Foundation for Infantile Paralysis to establish physical medicine and rehabilitation as "an integral aspect of undergraduate and post-graduate medical education and medical services on a total regional basis". of the sophomore year, designed to test the student's acquaintance with the over-all patterns of culture, past and present. Another purpose of the study was to survey the attitudes of the college faculty, of a sample group of 1953 seniors, and of alumni, towards the anticipatory examinations. The consensus was favorable especially from the student group, the majority of which felt the anticipatory examinations provided a great "saving of time and money," with other values listed as an opportunity for advanced courses, a greater confidence in the ability to do independent work, preparation for tutoring and advanced work, reduction of the schedule so that outside work can be undertaken. Of the alumni questioned on the values of the exams, 70% endorsed the program. The committee recommended the continuance of the program of anticipatory examinations, which enable superior students to get college credit for extra courses taken in high school, or for self-acquired knowledge. end — �15 Successful Children's Group Has "Waiting List" by Ruth E. McGratb, EdM'43, EdD's3 The Children's Cooperative Group of the University of Buffalo, presently located in the Engineering Building was organized in 932 as the labortory for the tudy of young hildren underthe administration of t le Schoolof Edcation. In the early days of its devel- o >ment, children o '. faculty and a umni had preference, but as the concept of preschool education became more widely accepted the waiting list grew longer until now some two hundred names make up the 1953 waiting list. Parents are encouraged to make application for their children before they reach nursery school age. Applications can be obtained from the School of Education or the Preschool office. McGrath, '43, '53 Study of Young Children The School of Education desires to maintain the group as a laboratory for the study of young children rather than have it fall into the category of a service group; therefore, in order to have a balanced group with respect to age and sex, for the benefit of parents' and students' observation and participation, it reserves the right to select children between 2% iVz years - The policy now practiced in the selection of children for the group is that approximately one-third of the children are children of faculty and two-thirds are children of alumni, children of students attending the University and children from the general public. Twins and brothers and sisters are given preference. In like manner the group is planned to include children from all races, creeds and religions. Date of application is the first consideration in filling a vacancy and all applications are kept on file until a vacancy occurs. Children accepted in the three-year-old group are eligible and usually continue in the four-yearold group. For this reason, it was possible to accept only two new children in the four-year-old group this year. This laboratory school provides an educational program suited to the needs of children from 2y 4^ years of age in separate morning and afternoon sessions. Approximately twothirds of the children attend five days a week, with the remaining one-third of the children attending- either three or two days a week. The enrollment is limited to twenty children on any one day due to the limited facilities of space and personnel, but with the above arrangement as many as twenty-eight children have been registered for one session. The program is flexible and planned in terms of meeting1 the needs of individual children. There are necessarily, however, a certain minimum of routines determined by the physiological needs of the children. Active and quiet activities are alternated and emphasis is placed upon the value of free play and good health routines. The equipment includes everything the child needs for socialized play and children can be found carrying' on a variety of activities at the same time. z- Group is Self-Sustaining The Children's Cooperative Group is self-sustaining, on the basis of tuition charges levied in terms of the number of days each week a child is enrolled. The tuition is used to pay the head teacher as well as to purchase all equipment. Parent cooperation begins with the child's acceptance into the group and extends to the following: scheduled turns in assisting the teacher, transportation, attending regular meetings, cooperating on special records of the child at home as well as home visits by students in connection with the program. The very nature of the organization of the cooperative group provides excellent means for informal parent education. Schools Cooperate, Too In connection with the School of Education, the Children's Cooperative Group provides opportunities for student teaching- in the field of the education ofyoung- children. Two Workshops in the Care of Young Children use the facilities of the group for observation, participation and home visits. Parallel to the rapid growth of the preschool program, there grew an increasing awareness of the potential facilities offered by the laboratory school to other schools and divisions of the University. The School of Medicine has used the laboratory school in a number of instances. At present senior medical students are assigned in rotation for a one week period in the preschool situation to assist the teacher. From the School of Nursing, junior nursing students participate in the group for a two-week period preceding their experience in the pediatric wards in an endeavor to gain understanding in meeting the developmental needs of "normal" children. The departments of psychology and sociology, and the School of Social Work send special students and some full classes for observation from time to time. Students working toward Ed.M. degrees use the facilities for research when their studies involve work with young children. �University is Host to European Student-Workers 16 by Dominic J. Guzzetta. BA'4B,EJM'SI.EdDSI The University of Buffalo, through Millard Fillmore College, has again been given an opportunity to work with European student-workers. One of ten institutions of higher learning to be selected for this project by the Foreign Operations Administration of the U. S. Government, Washington, D. C.f the University is currently administering a year's program of work and study for fifty European skilled workmen. These young men have come to the campus from Western Germany, Austria, France, Norway, and Greece under the Industrial-Technical Assistance Division of FOA, the Trainee Branch office is directly responsible for administering the program that has been designated the Work-StudyTraining for Productivity Program. Program's Objectives In an attempt to assist in the rehabilitation of the war-torn Free Nations of Europe, the WSTP project was designed to bring to the U. S. over 2,000 young workmen to spend one year in an industrial-trainingwhile-working experience in American factories and living in American colleges. This program has as its ob- tries, will generally be better leaders and trainees, who can help dispel their fellow workers' fears of increased productivity, establish a bulwark against the spread of Communism, and support the Free Trade Union movement in opposition to Communist-led unions. Placed in Industries While in this country, more specifically in Buffalo, it will be the responsibility of the University to place its fifty WSTP participants in local Niagara Frontier industries that have working relationships between management and either the local A. F. of L. or C. I. O. unions, where they may have an opportunity to become active union members and therefore study the operations of American unions. At the same time, they will attend specially designed University classes on a part-time basis, learning more about our country and people. These courses deal with Oral Communication, American History and Government, the growth of the labor union movement in the U. S., and industrial management and its problems. In an effort to get University and Community participation in this program, some twenty different people from U. 8., local labor unions, the Buffalo Board of Education, and local industrial concerns have been scheduled to conduct seminars in the above areas. Coordinating Committee A joint committee, representing the management of local industries, the labor unions, and the University has been established. This Committee coordinates relations among the three groups and plans any special cooperation where needed. In short, it acts as an advisory body to the program in order that the following experiences may be fully enjoyed by each partici- pant: (1) Community experience (2) Educational and observational experience (3) Job experience in American industry (4) Trade union experience The writer, whose responsibility it is to supervise the University's WSTP program, will welcome inquiries from alumni and others of the University family who would like to know more of the program or observe it in action. jectives: (1) To give potential leaders of labor and management in friendly foreign countries a year of experience that will stimulate their development; (2) To provide a broad demonstration of American democracy in action to young Europeans who will return to their countries with a better understanding of American life and methods. Such first hand knowledge would also help to counteract Communist lies about the U. S. The project in which the University is presently involved was developed in an attempt to show the rank and file workers from Marshall Plan countries, by actual participation in work and study, life here in the U. S. It is hoped that these young people, upon their return to their own coun- _ ~£*/* '* r'Sht, Odd Haagensen, Norway; Constantine Houl'ardas, Greece; Schiller, Austria; Gerhard Krone, Germany; Helmut Lebmann, Germany; and Schwacha, Austria. Eduard Jobann �17 Cagers' Prospects: A Winning Season And Some New Records "Jumpiri From Football Scrapbook: "Thanks Doc" Jim" Home shows how he got the nickname as he leaps in the air to sink a two-pointer in the Bulls' game with Ohio University at Clark Gymnasium. Buffalo's Bulls defeated the cagers from the University of Mexico, 81-56, in the season's thirteenth game which was played in Clark Memorial Gymnasium on the campus, making the record read eight won, and five lost thus far. Highlight of the one-sided contest came in the third quarter, when Jumpin' Jim Home, sensational junior, went high into the air to "dump" his final field goal of the game. With 23 points to his credit, Home was summoned to the bench with the roar of a standing ovation ringing in his ears. He had just set a new career scoring record of 1067 points, gathered in three years of play. The former mark was a three-year total of 1065 tallied by Harold R. Kuhn, Edß's2, presently a Navy pilot stationed in Jacksonville, Fla. "Prince Hal", as he was referred to by area sports writers, still holds the season scoring record of 485 points, produced in his senior year. Home, whose freshman points were in varsity competition, has run up totals of 374, 436, and 257. The latter figure is his total for thirteen games this season. With ten contests remaining, not to mention another year's eligibility, Jim appears likely to set a record which may never again be equaled. From the football scrapbook comes this photo. "Doc," of course, is E. Walter Woodbury, DDS'IS, long a master at luncheons, reunion, and publicity for University athletic teams traveling in the Bath, N. V., area. Shown expressing their gratitude for his hospitality on their trip this fall to Lewisburg, Pa., for the Bucknell game are, I. to r., George J. King, Jr., team trainer; Ronald Laßocque, center; Friedrich "Fritz" Febel, head coach, and Elmer John, fullback. The Bulls return to action in Clark Gym on February 2nd, meeting Williams College, following a three-week rest during mid-year exams.

The alumni of the University can do much to assist with the selection of students for the University. Merely by writing to the Office of Admissions Counseling, they can secure descriptive materials that will bring them up-to-date on life on the campus. A new pictorial brochure has been designed for this purpose. Through divisional catalogs and small folders they can become acquainted with specific curricular offerings. We hope that alumni will contact this office whenever its staff may help them tell the University of Buffalo story to prospective students. �18 ALUMNI NEWS ITEMS BY CLASSES 16 LLB—Vincent Gavin Hart has been elected president of Abolish Bowery Conditions, Inc.

The Alumni Office, no longer possessing its own addressograph and mail facilities, must process its mail through the central mail office which handles the mail of all University departments. It is important that the Alumni Office be given notice of mailing requests thirty days prior to the date of mailing. In order to assure adequate time for preparation, addressing, and mailing of all materials, Club and Association officers are asked to honor this regulation, thereby providing prompt and efficient mailings for all. Incidentally, your Alumni Bulletin goes to press on the fifth day of September, November, January, March and May for mailing on the first of the following month.

In the words of Ewing, "a cooperative intellectual and moral endeavor to justify mankind's great adventure in altruistic effort, the university." The formal dedication of a new building would not be of very great importance in the long span of history if it were merely a local or a timely exercise. However, the dedication yesterday of the Samuel Paul Capen new building of Medicine and Dentistry is of surpassing importance and an epoch to Buffalo, the State and the Nation. All the physical materials were present yesterday, the iron, bricks, stone and equipment; to the splendid structure we brought the solemn details of dedication. Over and above these details was the inspiring thought that we, you and me, and a host of others, were making a great contribution for the benefit of the vast numbers of people yet to be born. We were part of a re-dedication to the living spirit of mankind. �Dr. A. B« U. S. Postage Lemgn 1c PAID 41 Northrup Place Buffalo 145 H. T. . Permit No. 311 Buffalo, N. Y.

Each year similar scenes are enacted in the campus residence lounges, not to mention the homes of students living in and near Buffalo. Just to make the cover picture, taken before last year's prom, more appropriate we should mention that Dorothy M. Lee is now an alumna, having received a bachelor's degree from the College of Arts and Sciences in June, 1953. Bill Sugnet, presently a senior in the same college, is the son of Everett H.

MEMBER OF THE AMERICAN ALUMNI COUNCIL PLEASE NOTIFY US OF CHANGE OF ADDRESS �/ A MESSAGE the K^hancetlor of the l/lnlveriitu: To the Alumni: In this annual message it is customary to express gratitude for financial support, and I do not wish to underemphasize in the slightest degree the University's appreciation for the financial contributions of its graduates to many phases of its activities. I would like to defer comment on the alumni fund for a moment, however, to express appreciation for what is even more important the deep interest of alumni in the University and their strong determination to have it perform its mission with even greater effectiveness. I firmly believe that the University and its alumni are closer together now than they have been for a long time, and that this community of spirit will lead to many new accomplishments. If I may add a personal word, it is to say that I have enjoyed my relationships with alumni organizations and with graduates as individuals. Last year I had the opportunity to meet alumni in many parts of the state and the nation, and it was a warming and stimulating experience. Alumni may be very proud indeed of their record of financial support during the past year. Their contributions to the Loyalty Fund, the Centennial Fund, the Greater University Development Fund, and their special gifts amounted in all to nearly $385,000. This record is not only a testimonial to the loyalty of all those who participated, but especially to the many people who gave leadership to the program, it is impossible to list the names of all these leaders. However, I should like especially to express the University's indebtedness to the General Alumni Board and to Mr. T. W. Van Arsdale, Jr., the Director of Alumni Relations and the man who has taken administrative responsibility for the alumni fund drives. I should like to add another personal word at this point. I shall always be grateful for Mr. Van Arsdale's counsel and cooperation. It has been a pleasure this year to have him serve as a member of the Deans' Council, to whose deliberations he has added very significantly. I am sure that the alumni of the other divisions of the University will not be at all critical if I make special mention of the contributions of the graduates of the Medical School, whose total gifts among the funds mentioned above came to more than $268,000. This is unmistakable evidence that they are jealous of the reputation of the Medical School and determined to make it one of the outstanding medical schools in the country. To their gifts for capital purposes they have recently added contributions for current support, through the Annual Participating Fund for Medical Education. The alumni of other divisions may be expected, I am certain, to follow their example. These contributions, together with those which will be secured from industry, foundations, and other sources, are capable of guaranteeing the future of the University of Buffalo as an independently controlled, privately supported institution. In a recent address before the Association of American Colleges on the financing of independent universities, I made the statement that "... a large area of voluntary effort must be preserved in a democratic society and a free enterprise system. If the independent institutions should surrender their autonomy, if they should abdicate their educational leadership or lose their intellectual freedom, or if they should succumb to a virtual government monopoly in higher education, the very character of our society would be fundamentally and dangerously altered." I am sure you believe this with equal conviction and are determined to maintain the integrity and independence of the University of Buffalo. — �4 A ZJ-rom the ZJ-und Message (committee (chairman: To the Alumni: In this issue is the final report of the Loyalty Fund and the Development Fund. Over 1,100 alumni gave to the Loyalty Fund a total of 517,000, and 2,100 alumni contributed to the Development Fund a total of $359,000. The Loyalty Fund shows less money received, but, of course, many were paying on the Development Fund pledges which accounts for the decrease in Loyalty Fund gifts. However, this is another year, and we hope that everyone will feel, what the fund name implies—loyalty to the University—to the extent that a gift will be given to help the University with its financial problems. This year a new project is under way among the medical alumni whereby an annual pledge of at least $100 each has been asked. To date, at least $75,000 has been subscribed and the campaign is only about half finished. This shows what one school is doing to help the University. We thank everyone who subscribed and strongly urge those who haven't to do their part in aiding our great Alma Mater.

Ross, BS(Bmyio Few individuals, with the exception of a stray statistician here and there, will pay much attention to a figure when it comes down to the fineness of 1%. Yet out of the 4000 women graduates of the University of Buffalo, there are some 40 who form the nucleus of the active groupof the Alumnae Association —and that is 1%! Every woman who pays her annual dues of $1.00 per year is considered a member of the Association. However, it is only about 15C£, of the Alumnae who do pay. You know that it takes more than dollar dues to make a recognized organization. It takes people. People who are willing to devote a lot of their time and efforts, and people who are willing to devote a little of their time and efforts. By the same token, it takes more one social event a year, like the Fashion Show, to provide enough than money for a scholarship for a deserving undergraduate and to pay for $3500 worth of furnishings for the lounge in Macdonald Hall. A handful of people worked for months to produce the Fifth Annual Luncheon and Fashion Show held last month. More profit was made from this Fashion Show (because of advertising in the program, not on the price of the ticket) than on the four previous ones together. Part of the success can be attributed to the increasing enthusiasm shown toward the Alumnae Association in the past year. The larger part can be attributed to the loyalty and spirit of the Committee. You reach a pcint of diminishing return when it comes to fund raising, but the Alumnae has come nowhere near a point of increasing turnout when it comes to people. When you look at what has been done this year with 1%, think what could be done with 2c,'c The active group of the Alumnae Association has recognized the sudden mushrooming of the University of Buffalo, and realizes the Association must mushroom along with it. During this past year alone the entire Constitution was revamped to make it more flexible. This permits women who attended the University, but did not graduate, to be members on equal standing. The Board of Directors and the officers are elected by the members. The members vote on all decisions. Anyone who has indicated that she wishes to be considered an active member is contacted personally and advised of each meet- . ing. It is still not too late to "join up". The next meeting will be April 29th at 8 P. M. in Norton Hall, when our speaker will be Dr. Richard M. Drake, assistant dean of the College of Arts and Sciences, who has recently been appointed the University's Director of Institutional Research.

B. Alumni Dance to be held at the Buffalo Trap and Field Club. The dance is sponsored by the U. B. Alumnae Association, profit going to the Scholarship Fund and other worthy causes connected with the University. This year's dance can technically be considered the "first". However, one was held last June as more or less a "trial run" to test the alumni reaction. The enthusiasm was so convincing that there is no doubt that this dance will become an annual must. Tickets will be $3.00 per couple. Dancing will be from 10 to 2 with music by Dave Cheskin's Orchestra. Sales will start May 17th; so watch the papers for announcements of salesmen and places to buy tickets. Chancellor Selection Committee Announcement "The special committee that has been appointed to recommend to the Council of the University a successor to Chancellor McConnell is making every effort to find a qualified replacement by Fall. The committee has under consideration the names of 25 potential candidates. In casea successor is not selected by Fall, the ordinances cf the University provide that the Chairman of the Council shall serve as Acting Chancellor until a Chancellor is appointed." Harold M. Somers, Secretary �22 Chancellor McConnell Resigns T. Raymond McConnell. eleventh chancellor of the University, recently announced his resignation and intention to devote himself to teaching, writing and research at the University of California. The announcement, made on February Ist at a meeting of the General Administration Committee of the University Council, did not indicate a definite date of departure although it did signify that his new duties would commence in the Fall. As this issue of your Bulletin went to press, it was announced that Dr. McConnell will join the faculty of the University of California as professor of higher education, effective January 1, 1955. Dr. Consultant's Appointment The actual effective date of the chancellor's resignation will be July 1, 1954, when he will accept the honored appointment to the position of chief consultant to the State Survey of Higher Education in California. This six-month assignment is a tribute to Dr. McConnell's national reputation as an educator and will take precedence over his earlier plans. Dr. McConnell will prepare a report on the information gathered by a full-time staff and special consultants and submit it to those representatives who, in turn, will prepare a report for a liaison committee representing the State Education Department and the Board of Regents. An advisory committee to the survey includes representatives of the State's private colleges and universities. Return to Teaching In originally announcing his decision to become a professor of higher education at the University of California, Dr. McConnell said: "With the exception of only two of the 30 years I have been a member of a college or university staff, I have been involved in some administrative work, but my greatest satisfaction has come from teaching, and especially from close association with graduate students. On two other occasions I have declined an administrative appointment at the University of California, but this position permits me full-time graduate teaching and research, with an opportunity for writing which has been almost impossible in the midst of administrative duties. to Accept "If I wished to continue in administration, I would have no ambition beyond the University of Buffalo, but if I am to return to teaching, I should not postpone the change any longer. Close Friendships "My work at the University of Buffalo and in this community has been deeply rewarding and stimulating. I am deeply grateful for the cordiality, the support and the assistance of many people. "I am particularly indebted to Mr. Seymour H. Knox. chairman of the University Council. I have never enjoyed personal or professional asso- ciations as much as the ones I have had with Mr. Knox. He deeply understands the true character of the University, its problems and its needs. Few people know the generous amount of time and energy he gives to the University, and the enormous value of his service. His leadership and his unfailing support of my administration have been in large part responsible for whatever progress the University has made during the last 3V2 years. "It has also been a privilege to be closely associated with the members of the Committee on General Administration, and to have had the backing of the entire council. I am especially grateful, too, for the co-operation and loyalty of an unusually-able group of administrative associates, led by Dean G. Lester Anderson and Dr. Claude E. Puffer. For the faculty's co-operation and good will in advancing the University's interests I shall always be deeply appreciative. Community Challenge "With the continued interest and support of this community, and the whole of Western New York, the University of Buffalo will grow into still greater stature and usefulness. No half-measures will assure this greatness, or enable the University to measure up to the needs and opportunities of this great region. "I sincerely hope that the University's future will always be sketched in bold lines and the entire community will unite in whatever way may be necessary to give the vision reality. "It must not be forgotten that the University of Buffalo not only provides a college of liberal arts, which is central to the entire institution, but California Post maintains, at high cost, a wide range specialized and professional curas well as graduate offerings in many fields. "It is the only institution in the metropolitian area and in the eight of ricula, counties of Western New York, which especially serves, that offers to young people so many educational opportunities. It can continue to serve thi3 region only if, as it serves all its people, it is in turn supported generously by all these people. it Growth Foreseen years the University's enrollment will begin to increase, and soon will surpass the postwar peak. It is essential to prepare for this great influx of students now. A new science building is an immediate necessity, and classroom and office space for other departments is imperative. Buildings will mean little without a faculty of high quality. "Within two (Continued on page 29) Heindel is New Dean of A & S The appointment of Dr. Richard H.

McConnell, chancellor of University of Buffalo, presented graduating students with their 213 diplomas at the University's annual midyear commencement exercises, Monday, February 22 at Kleinhans Dr. the Music Hall. Mr. Alex F. Osborn, co-founder of Batton, Barton, Durstine and Osborn. and vice-chairman of the University Council, gave the commencement address which was titled "The Creative Application of Knowledge." Mr. Osborn's Speech Mr. Osborn called the University of Buffalo a "unique monument" to "Americanism at its best" and "to the power of imagination." He said: "What a feat of imagination took place 108 years ago when Millard Fillmore started a medical school with 72 students in an abandoned church down on Lafayette Square, and prophesied that some day that acorn would grow into the oak of a university we now cherish. "What a feat of imagination Walter P. Cooke and his colleagues performed about four decades ago, when they looked at the grubby buildings of the Erie County Poor House, and at its 175 acres choked with weeds, and said, 'Our citizens will here create a campus such as but few cities in the world can ever match.' "To build and to run so great an institution has cost about 25 millions. Almost miraculously those millions not through tax suphave come port not through the largess of just a few philanthropists—but, from the free will gifts of some 35,000 citizens. That record marks our university as a unique monument to Americanism at its best, and also as a monument to the power of imaginations." Mr. Osborn, who is the author of a recently published textbook, "Applied Imagination: Principles and Procedures of Creative Thinking," urged the graduates to apply their knowledge with imagination. He pointed out many examples for the graduates to follow in applying imagination in their individual professions and concluded that while "the cash awards of creative efforts are plenty, that the more frequent and more fruitful rewards come in the coin of happier living." — — "A man to whom the people in this community have long turned when the need for leadership was greatest", ivas the phrase used by Chancellor T. Raymond McConnell in his presentation of the Chancellor's Medal to Daniel W. Streeter. Observing the presentation, center, is Alex F. Osborn, member of the University Council who was the commencement speaker. Chancellor's Medal The Chancellor's Medal, which the University bestows annually on an outstanding- citizen for distinguished service to the community, was awarded at the exercises to Daniel W. Streeter of 1022 Delaware Avenue. The Chancellor's Medal, which was awarded for the twenty-seventh time was established by the University's sixth chancellor, Charles P. Norton, "to personify civic patriotism and to vivify public service in the eyes of the citizens of Buffalo." In citing Mr. Streeter. Chancellor McConnell called him, "a man to whom the people in this community have long" turned when the need for leadership was greatest." Mr. Streeter is executive director of the Buffalo Foundation, and director of several business corporations. He has traveled in Africa and Greenland, and written widely of his experiences. "The variety of his accomplishments, as well as the breadth of his personal interests, has demonstrated that to be a well rounded individual does not mean that a person cannot excel in any field but means simply that he can excel in many." the Chancellor said. Chancellor McConnell recalled that during the worst years of the depression in the thirties. Mr. Streeter was Chairman of the Emergency Relief Bureau in Buffalo, and that in four years of that agency's existence, it was responsible for the expenditure of about fifty seven million dollars to purchase food, shelter and clothing for Buffalo citizens. "Under his direction, the Emergency Relief Bureau did its work in a way that was both efficient and humane," Chancellor McConnell said. The Chancelloralso pointed out that Mr. Streeter headed seven of the eight War Loan Campaigns in Erie County during World War II which raised $960,000,000. "Anyone who has had anything to do with carrying through a War Loan drive knows it is one of the hardest voluntary tasks anyone can undertake," the Chancellor said. "That is was done successfully seven times in the space of four years is almost incredible. This is one of the most distinguished records of public service rendered in Buffalo in a gen- eration." The choice of Mr. Streeter as recipient for the Chancellor's Medal was widely heralded by the press. Honored Guest Dr. Salvador P. Lopez, minister plenipotentiary of the Philippines and head of the Philippine delegation to the United Nations, was an honored guest at the commencement exercises. �24 ALUMNI GRADUATE Doctorate degrees were awarded at mid-year ceremonies to the following alumni: James Albert Buzard.

The answer to this question will to a considerable degree be indicated by the physicians themselves who have banded together to purchase shares in the Annual Participating Fund for Medical Education. One thing is sure: the quality of medical education in Western New York will depend on the University of Buffalo School of Medicine, the only one in the area. In the long run the quality of medical education provided by the University of Buffalo determines the quality of medical treatment people can get in Western New York. The majority of physicians in this region graduate from the University of Buffalo School of Medicine. Buffalo's ability to retain leaders in medical education depends heavily on the opportunities for research and study which only a top-notch local medical school can provide. The future of the hospitals is closely allied with that of the medical school. Each requires the other. Assets of The Medical School Among the assets of the medical school are a fine, new building, Capen Hall, a long tradition of integrity and accomplishment, and a location in the midst of a great population center, which makes possible the necessary clinics, and the all-important working relationships with great hospitals. Problems of The Medical School Serious weaknesses exist, especially in the basic science departments. When one compares the budgets of 21 privately-supported medical schools visited during a recently-conducted Survey of Medical Education, Buffalo ranks 14th in the amount of money devoted to the study of Anatomy; 20th in Biochemistry; 17th in Physiology; 18th in Pharmacology; and 19th in Pathology. The salary levels are only two-thirds of the average national minimums. The number of teaching and research faculty members in each department is well below the national average. Yet as is common throughout the country these basic science departments teach not only medical students but graduate and postgraduate students and stu- Dean of The University of Buffalo School of Medicine can Medical Schools include governmental appropriation, endowment, tuition income from the University as a whole, salary sharing by teaching hospitals and annual giving. Because of the rapid growth of the University of Buffalo in the last 30 years on the Campus which was formerly the County Poorhouse, a high percentage of the legacies and of the money raised by five campaigns has had to go into buildings. While the value of the buildings is approximately $15,000,000 the endowment is only $8,000,000. Kimball, '29 dents of dentistry, nursing-, pharmacy, physical therapy and physical edu- cation. Although the new building, Samuel P. Capen Hall, will permit the Medical School to accept up to 100 students in each class, in place of the present 70, this cannot be accomplished without a real increase in faculty and equipment. The Reasons for The Problems The weaknesses both in the basic science and clinical areas result directly from lack of money. All medical education is expensive. In every medical school in the country including Buffalo, the tuition of a medical student pays only one-quarter to onethird of the costs. This is primarily because of the amount of individual and small group instruction needed to teach the students the skill and responsibility required in dealing with life and death and secondarily because of the elaborate and up-to-date laboratory equipment needed to teach the science of medicine. To meet its costs one school has established a tuition of $2650 per year for out of state students. Such tuition would exclude many worthy students from the study of medicine. In Buffalo the tuition for next year is $850, a $50 increase over the current tuition. Who Pays the Bill ? The sources of the balance of the costs of medical education in Ameri- Consequently the University of Buffalo must derive from tuition income almost 90% of its unrestricted funds for general educational expenses. This is far too high a percentage and has serious implications in a period when inflation outstrips the social advisability of raising tuition charges at a corresponding rate. This is the limiting factor which has prevented development of the basic science departments of the medical school to a strength appropriate to the reputation of the institution. This is the more true since the University as a whole has to prepare for much greater enrollments in all departments within the next five years and desperately needs buildings such as a new physics building. Private Enterprise The University of Buffalo is a private, independent University dedicated to and dependent upon private enterprise. Its Medical School is dedicated to preparation for private practice, teaching and research. No one wishes to consider the prospect of governmental endowment and governmental control. The only alternative is increased support from private sources. That is the basis for initiation by physicians of the University of Buffalo Annual Participating Fund for Medical Education. This is a project organized by the University and the medical profession which is aimed at securing annual participation by every physician in the area and every medical school alumnus for the purpose of aiding in meeting the costs of medical education, particularly in the basic science or pre-clinical departments anatomy, of the medical school — — biochemistry, physiology, bacteriology (Continued on page Zfy) �24 The Answer to a Dilemma (Continued from page 23) and immunology, pathology and pharmacology. If all physicians in Western New York and all graduates of the medical school throughout the nation subscribe to one $100 unit per year through their years of practice, it will be possible to raise $260,000 per year which would be the equivalent of the interest from about 10 million dollars of endowment. This would not fill all the needs of the school but it is anticipated that the $200,000 of fluid funds thus secured would permit strengthening of the basic science departments to a level comparable with other well-supported medical schools and would permit an increase in enrollments, teaching and research. The University as a Beneficiary The present campaign will be followed by a continuing effort to get the University named as a beneficiary in wills. An endowed professional chair or a chair of lesser rank in any basic science or clinical department is the strongest type of support which a private University can receive. The present participating fund is directed toward the support of the basic science departments because the need is greatest here and the opportunities provided by the new building require realization. Additional support for the Clinical Departments from other sources will also be needed as the bigger entering classes reach the clinical 3rd and 4th years. Dr. Beck Chairman Dr. Edgar C. Beck has consented to serve as chairman of an Executive Committee to organize the Annual Participating Fund. A number of physicians and other citizens will compose an Advisory Committee. The Council of the University has given official recognition and approval to the plan and to the permanence of the organization. At a meeting in Samuel P. Capen Hall on February 22nd, hundreds of the leading physicians of the area came together to get the project under way. Every medical man in Erie County will be approached by another physician and asked to do his part. Following this, medical school alumni in other counties and areas of the country will be approached. Initial contributions have been most encouraging. The keen interest shown by the physicians in the strengthening of the Medical School and the University is evidence of the growing strength of the Institution. Could This Solution Have Wider Application? feel they may have physicians The found the beginning of the answer to the Medical School's problems, and many other people wonder if this is a type of procedure which in different ways could be used to help solve the bigger problem of how the University as a whole can grow and improve rapidly enough to meet the demands of a growing population. M & THANK YOU, R LABORATORIES The Bulletin recently received the following letter from Stockton Kimball, MD'29, Dean of the School of Medicine. Of vital interest to members of the medical profession, we ate happy to include it as a tribute to the M & R Company: "I should like to call to the attention of members of the medical profession and any others interested that the report of the Pediatric Research Conference on 'Renal Function in Infants and Children' held at the University of Buffalo and the Children's Hospital, March 2nd & 3rd, 1954, is now available and may be secured from the M & R Laboratories or from Dr. Charles U. Lowe at Children's Hospital in Buffalo." "On behalf of the Medical School, I should like to congratulate the M & R Laboratories on their forward-looking policy of support of basic research through the backing of this series of Pediatric Research Conferences. The Buffalo conference was the seventh such conference to be held since 1951. The M & R Company has paid all the expenses involved in the conduct of the conference and likewise the expense of publication of the proceedings. The medical profession is the beneficiary of the far sightedness of the M & R Laboratories in backing this series of Research Conferences." YOU CAN HELP TESTIMONIAL TO HONOR DEAN LEMON ON RETIREMENT Dr. A. Bertram Lemon, Dean of the School of Pharmacy, will retire from administrative duties following the present academic session. For some time now, the alumni of the school have been rallying behind the efforts of the testimonial Committee headed by chairman MearlD. Pritchard, PhG'2l. This committee, cooperating with representatives of area pharmaceutical societies and professional groups, has scheduled what might well prove to be the largest University dinner testimonial ever. Sunday, April 25th, at 6:30 P.M.. former students, colleagues and friends will assemble in the main ballroom of Hotel Statler to honor Dean Lemon, who has served in his present capacity since 1936. As a recognized participant and leader in local and national professional activities, "Doc" Lemon was never too busy to lend guidance and instruction to student music and athletic organizations. Many have often referred to the Dean as the "real father of music" at the University. While mailings have reached graduates of the pharmacy, medical and dental schools, it is hoped that former students and colleagues of all departments will accept this opportunity to honor the man who has done so much for all. Requests for reservations should be addressed to: A. Bertram Lemon Testimonial Committee, 200 Morgan Building, Buffalo. N. Y. Those who have worked with Dr. Lemon undoubtedly have in their possession photographs, anecdotes and odds and ends which would be welcomed for inclusion in a presentation booklet to be given the Dean during the program. Perhaps you would just like to write a note or letter to Dr. Lemon to be included in the collection. Please do so. Any manuscripts or photos will be reproduced and your original will be promptly and safely returned. Kindly address your materials to: Dean A. Bertram Lemon, c/o 200 Morgan Building, Buffalo, N. Y. �27 GEORGE 1881 D. CROFTS - 1954 University officials, alumni, friends and civic leaders of Buffalo gathered on February 17th to pay last respects to George D. Crofts, who for thirty years guided the financial destiny of the University of Buffalo. The passing of University's comptroller and treasurer, from 1921 until 1951, came on February 15th, following an illness of several months. Mr. Crofts, who retired from administrative duties on June 30, 1951, saw the University's plant assets grow from $782,743 to $9,870,125 while the endowments mounted from $150,000 to $8,351,156. He had actually been associated with the University for 47 years, having attended Old Central High School, graduated from Cornell University in 1901 and Cornell University Law School in 1903, and returned to Buffalo in 1904 as a lecturer in the Law School on contracts and torts. A widely-read man who conversed easily with all and numbered his friends from all walks of life, George Crofts was friend, teacher and counselor to all persons associated with the University, community and nation. George Crofts, leader in business and education, was gifted with the common touch, often enjoying a pipe while strolling almost daily across the spacious campus which owes its beauty and charm to his foresight and planning. Perhaps the most cherished testimonial to his efforts and care was recently received, in letter form, in the office of the treasurer. Accompanying an anonymous gift of $1000, the letter said: "The intent of this gift is to perpetuate, as near as may be, the love and devotion of George D. Crofts for the University campus and the infinite care and interest with which he administered its upkeep and improvement while he was comptroller and treasurer of the University. "I would like to have the George D. Crofts Campus Fund used annually for the beautification of the University campus. The beautification may consist of the purchase of trees or flowering shrubs or hedges or other plantings which will add to the lasting beauty of the campus. The trees and shrubs so purchased shall be marked with appropriate tags noting: the name of the specimen and the fact that it was purchased with funds from the George D. Crofts Campus Fund. It is my hope that others will add to the fund." The University has gratefully accepted the gift and approved the establishment of the fund. Your General Alumni Board, adjourning its last meeting in respect to Mr. Crofts, adopted the following resolution: "WHEREAS, his humility, simplicity, integrity, and vast intelligence were basic to his unique personal, academic, and business efforts in initiating and nurturing the beauty of the campus of the University of Buffalo, both in the tangible and intangible properties of that campus; and, "WHEREAS, he so masterfully guided the intricate financial affairs of the University of Buffalo, thereby forever benefiting the whole Western New York region; "THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED: that we, the representatives of the former students of his and our beloved University of Buffalo, do here give voice to our deep and abiding respect for and gratitude to George D. Crofts whose selfless devotion and wise practices have brought about the more firm establishment of a great University which shall live forever as a memorial to the remarkable foresight, indomitable spirit, and intense devo- tion of him, our friend, counselor, leader, and fellow in the pursuit of truth and freedom."

HOSTS Ist photo: Coach George J. King, Jr., Cortland State Teachers '49, gives a jew last-minute pointers to team capMovetain Don Worth, University's wrestling star for the 1953-1954 season. 2nd photo: Buffalo's George "Bumper" sian performs a "Siamese Twin" act with J. Dennis ofAlfred in the 147 lb. class of the season's final match. Incidentally, Dennis stayed on top to win a close decision. When last heard from, Don Beitleman, University's all-time wrestling great, was in the midst of a European tour and gaining fame in the top arenas. Don might be interested in knowing that Coach George King has developed a briefcase-size, sure-fire candidate for the traveling1 troupe in the form of Lil' world's Don Worth. Worth, who held down the 123 lb. spot this year, won ten of thirteen matches, scored 46 points while allowing 9 to opponents, and never was pinned. Beitleman, in his hey-day, won eleven of twelve matches and scored 58 points in the 1947-1948 season. Following last year's lean season. King's crew was off to a lightning start featuring the heavyweight sensation, Julius Perlini who took championship honors in the 1953 4-1 Tournament in Cleveland. Ohio and the Niagara District AAU bouts. Following the Toronto match in late January, Perlini was decisioned by Uncle Sam and injuries sidelined Harry Ham, 130 lb.; Steve Zatko, 147 lb.; Fran Worth, 137 lb.; and Bill Ford of the 177 lb. class. These vacancies were filled by members of the football squad who responded to the emergency calls and also welcomed further competition from old friends of the gridiron cam- paign. Ron Laßocque, veteran football center, assumed the heavyweight roll while football captain Ray Cham- Berlin teamed with Bill Furlong to restore the much-needed balance for squad strength. In addition to the season schedule and results which follow, the team contributed its share of public relations duties by conducting no less than fifteen exhibitions throughout Western New York, not to mention the numerous officiating and lecture appearances of George King, dean of the area's collegiate wrestling coaches. What about next year? "With upand-coming men from our varsity and freshman squads, we'll be giving every team a run for its money", said the coach. Incidentally, as this article goes to press George is looking forward to the Niagara Association A.A.U. Senior Wrestling Championships to be conducted in Clark Memorial Gymnasium, Saturday, March 27th. So are the opponents! They are all sure of one thing. There'll be University of Buffalo men in the final standings! The season's scores follow: Won 5 Lost 8 Opp. U. 1 — — 5t.

The article followed a lead line reading, "Fencers' Varsity Out for 'Blood' ". If fifteen wins and three defeats isn't classed in the "blood-drawing" category, it certainly should be. It is the official season record. Now comes the all-important North Atlantic Fencing Championship match to be held in Clark Gymnasium on March 20th. As host club this year, the University team will welcome representatives of eastern institutions. Buffalo will be seeking the third consecutive fencing title, the winning of which should assure permanent possession of the beautiful broad-sword trophy now in the Clark Gym trophy case. On March 26th and 27th the team will represent the University in the Fencing Championships at the University of Chicago. Getting back to that blood angle, it is interesting to note that trainer George King considered the fencers least likely to give him trouble this season. In reality, he treated two National Collegiate minor stab wounds as well as several scrapes and bruises, while the wrestling team gave him practically no trouble at all. Who said fencing is a non-contact sport? �29 ALUMNI NEWS ITEMS BY CLASSES '16 LLB—Vincent Gavin Hart, long prominent in veterans' affairs, has been commissioned as Lieut.

Old Bookstore Is Now Faculty Club Alumni of the '45-52 classes will no doubt recall the long lines which occasionally formed in front of the bookstore building, long famous in North Buffalo as a replica of the original Holland Land Company in Batavia, N. Y. Long lines of waiting students are rapidly becoming- a thing of the past, the passing being accelerated with the transfer of bookstore facilities to the spacious basement of Norton Hall's new wing. Under the direction of Faculty Club President Frederick H. Thomas, head of the Department of Industrial Engineering, the old bookstore building was remodeled and now contains a first-floor lounge, basement cafeteria, and second-floor study and recreation room. Decorated in a charming Early American style, the clubhouse has already served for several receptions and gatherings of faculty groups. Club membership is currently reported at 395 by club treasurer Nicholas Kish, Assistant to the Dean of Millard Fillmore College. Operating funds have been acquired through dues and donations. All remodeling work was performed by faculty members who volunteered for a total of 850 hours' work. The University Women's Club, headed by Mrs. Reginald Pegrum. selected the drapes, helped with the decorating and conducted a bazaar for fund raising. Club officers and members cordially invite members of the alumni body and former faculty members to visit the new house when next on campus. �(Continued from page 20) and staff members under the retireAnd such a teaching staff can be 31 CHANCELLOR RESIGNS assured only if greater endowments and more contributions to operating funds provide better salaries. "The next five years will test this community's will to maintain a great independent university. It would be incredible to me if it failed to meet this responsibility and opportunity." "The level of faculty salaries has improved substantially since 1950-51", the chancellor stated in his annual report. "The average salaries of fulltime professors have risen 12.3%, of associate professors 1X5%; assistant professors 17.6r/r and instructors 14.7%. "The University has entered the Federal Social Security program, which assures a much more adequate retirement income for staff members. It has put into effect a plan to supplement the annuities received by faculty ment program." During the same three years, the University received gifts, bequests and grants amounting to $4,270,427, the chancellor pointed out. Of this amount, $588,320 represented increases in endowment funds. Gifts and grants came to $2,199,535 and receipts from capital-fund drives to $1,482,572.

Furnas, Director of the Cornell Aeronautical Laboratory, was appointed Chancellor of the University of Buffalo by the Council of the University at a meeting: in the Marine Trust Company building- April 30. The appointment will become effective September 1. Dr. Furnas will replace Dr. T. R.

In announcing the new appointment, Mr. Seymour H. Knox, chairman of the University's Council, said, "The entire Council is enthusiastic about the choice of Dr. Furnas. We believe he is the best possible person for the job, and that under his leadership the University of Buffalo will have a brilliant future. "Both the University and Dr. Furnas are to be congratulated," said Chancellor T. Raymond McConnell "Dr. concerning the appointment. Furnas' distinguished career as university teacher, scientist, and administrator eminently qualify him for the chancellorship. He has wide educational interests, and the University as a whole will develop in sound directions under his leadership." Dr. Furnas Speaks In accepting the appointment, Dr. Furnas said. "This opportunity to head a great university is, of course, a tremendous and an enormous responsibility. The University has a grand tradition, a fine faculty and dedicated Council members. It has, I know, the respect and affection of the whole area which it serves. With these assets I am confident it will continue to grow and improve, as it has been doing steadily for so many years. "Naturally, my happiness in accepting this new position is mixed with real regrets at leaving the Cornell Aeronautical Laboratory, as I've had the privilege of being part of its development from the beginning. However, its research and business position is now so well established that its continuing success is assured, and I feel more free than I would have in earlier years to respond to a great new challenge. "Iknow that the University of Buffalo will face problems by steadily increasing enrollments. The University must have more financial support if it is simultaneously to expand and improve its services, but I am confident that with the cooperation of the people of Western New York, the need can be met. Under Chancellor Capen and Chancellor McConnell, extraordinary progress has been made. My highest hope is to help continue that progress undiminished." A Scholar and Olympic Track Star Dr. Furnas was born October 24, 1900 at Sheridan, Indiana. He holds the degree of Bachelor of Science with honors from Purdue, 1922, of Doctor of Philosophy from the University of Michigan, 1926, and of Honorary Doctor of Engineering from Purdue, 1946. While in school he was a long distance runner of distinction, and competed in the 5,000 meter event at the Olympic Games in Antwerp in 1920. In 1922 he was awarded the Big 10 Conference Medal for the best combined scholastic and athletic record. A Scientist, Administrator, and Former Yale Professor Immediately after leaving Purdue he was track coach and mathematics teacher at the Shattuck School, Faribault, Minnesota. This was followed by research work at the Illinois Steel Company and graduate work at the University of Michigan. From 1926 to 1931 he conducted research work on metallurgical processes at the U. S. Bureau of Mines at Minneapolis, Minnesota. In the latter year he joined Yale University as associate professor in chemical engineering and maintained a number of industrial consulting connections. In 1941 and 1942 he worked for the National Defense Research Committee, coordinating a large research and development program. He was appointed by CurtissWright as director of its research laboratory in Buffalo in February, 1943. This Laboratory was given to Cornell University on January 1, 1946, at which time he became executive vice-president and Director of Cornell Aeronautical Laboratory. An Expert in Aviation Research While Dr. Furnas has conducted a great deal of research in the fields of process metallurgy and physical chemistry, he has specialized in and has written many technical articles on fluid flow, heat transfer, combustion and other phases of research related to the aviation field. He is a member of the Committee on Aircraft Construction of the National Advisory Committee for Aeronautics, and also the Army Ordnance Advisory Committee. He is Chairman of the Technical Advisory Panel on Aeronautics of the Office of the Assistant Secretary of Defense, and was formerly Chairman of the Committee on Guided Missiles of the Research and Development Board. A Distinguished Writer He is the author of a large number of technical articles and articles on education as well as several books, including America's Tomorrow (1932), The Next Hundred Years, a Bookof-the-Month Club selection in January 1936, Man, Bread and Destiny, written with his wife, S. M. Furnas, (1937), and The Storehouse of Civilization (1939). He was editor of the sixth edition of Roger's Manual of Industrial Chemistry (1942). He was also editor of the Industrial Research Institute monograph on Industrial Research Its Organization and Management (1948). He also wrote a chapter on Science and Technology which was included in the third edition of Modern World Politics (1953). — Mrs. Furnas Active in Community Affairs Dr. Furnas lives at 651 Le Brun Road, Eggertsville, with his wife, Mrs. Sparkle M. Furnas, who has long been active in community activities. Mrs. Furnas is a graduate of Purdue University and received her master's degree from the University of Minnesota. They have a daughter, Mrs. Carl B. Pollack, Jr., who graduated from Amherst Central High School in 1949, and from Cornell University in 1955. She is now studying for her Ph.D. in zoology at Columbia University. �2 A SUCCESS STORY: The Physicians Respond Buffalo Evening Registered U. 6. Patent Office News EDWARD H.

May 27, 1954 The Doctors Respond Western New York has good reason to be proud of its physicians. Proud—and grateful. Twice in recent years these men and women of medicine have given inspiring demonstrations of private generosity in the public interest. First was the campaign to raise funds to build the new School of Medicine at the University of Buffalo. That physicians responded magnificently is shown by the fact that they contributed more than $2,000,000 of the entire $4,500,000 cost. The second demonstration grew directly out of the first. With the new building a reality, but with the university lacking the income to make full use of it, the physicians early this year launched their Annual Participating Fund for Medical Education. Still barely three months old, this unique project has already had impressive response in its quest for pledges of annual contributions for support of the school from area physicians and U. 8. medical graduates everywhere. To date, in fact, enough money has been pledged to enable the school to make certain faculty improvements next Fall and admit 80 new students instead of 70 as in the past. The total now stands at $80,160. And this is only the beginning. Tonight, for example, the physicians will meet to enlist the support of their colleagues from other parts of Western New York and Northern Pennsylvania. In this and other ways the project is expected to grow and prosper as the months and years go by. One of the ancient precepts of medical ethics commands each doctor to impart his gifts of healing to those who will follow in his steps. By accepting and meeting the responsibility of elevating the medical school to new greatness, the physicians are adding new dignity to an old art and making a permanent contribution to a higher quality of medical and hospital care throughout the Western New York community. (Reprinted With Permission) The objective of an even greater University School of Medicine is beginning to come true, thanks to the initiative and responsibility of the medical alumni and their colleagues. Next fall, the School will admit 80 new students instead of the usual 70 it has been able to accept in the past; the basic science faculty and their facilities will be expanded, some salaries will be increased. All of this has been made possible by the new Annual Participating Fund for Medical Education launched in February by medical leaders in the Western New York area. So far, the Fund's solicitation has been limited to the local area; however, at a dinner meeting in Norton Hall on May 26th. medical alumni leaders from other Western New York communities and nearby Pennsylvania endorsed the project and accepted chairmanships for their communities. It is planned that the Fund eventually will seek the membership of all Western New York physicians and of medical alumni everywhere. To date. 825 physicians in Buffalo and Erie County have pledged to contribute $83,000 annually to the School, the equivalent of more than $2,000,000 in endowment funds invested at 4<>. The annual pledges are usually for $100 each and 82% of the actively-practicing physicians in the local area have recorded their pledges to date. Edgar C. Beck, MD'l9, chairman of the Fund's Executive Committee, and Dean Stockton Kimball, MD'29, are hopeful that with the help of the alumni in other parts of the country the Fund will pass the $100,000 mark in its first year and continue to grow in the next few years so that the University's Medical School will become one of the top medical schools in the United States. As Dr. Beck has explained, "Every pledgor becomes a member of the Fund. When the organization is completed, possibly by next fall, members will meet and elect officers, an Advisory Committee, and an Executive Committee. It is expected that, while the fund membership will not seek to dictate school policy, it will have an important role in an advisory capacity." Members of the present Executive Committee, in addition to Drs. Beck and Kimball, include: Harry G. LaForge, MD'34, FhG'23; William J. Orr, MD'2O; Grant T. Fisher, MD'25; Henry N. Kenwell, MD'25; Marvin L. Bloom, MD'43; and Talman W. Van Arsdale, Jr., BA'3B, MA'4O, EdD's4, director of alumni relations. At the dinner on May 26th, Chancellor T. R. McConnell noted that medical alumni and their colleagues contributed more than $2,000,000 of the $4,500,000 cost of the new Medical-Dental Building. "And now," said the Chancellor, "these same physicians, with an unprecedented demonstration of their deep sense of professional responsibility, are taking the initiative in assisting the School to realization of the potentialities of its outstanding modern facilities." Those physicians named as the first area chairmen are: Charles R. Leone. MD'29, of Erie, Pa.; George S. Young, MD'35, Batavia; Angelo F. Leone, MD'32, Medina; JTheodore Valone, MD'27, Warren, Pa.; Daniel H. Maunz, MD'3l, Bradford, Pa.; William L. King, MD'3O, and Nathaniel L. Barone, MD'l7, Jamestown; Benjamin S.

A total of 1039 U. B. Medical School alumni gave $121,881.51, as compared with the next highest figure, $117,786. given by 3081 Harvard Medical School alumni and $112,068.21 given by 2923 alumni of Jefferson Medical College of Pennsylvania. Buffalo's per-capita giving average was approximately three times greater than either $117.31. as compared with $38.23 for Harvard and $38.20 for Jefferson. Buffalo's average of $117.31 was 13th in the list of 79 schools, but none of the schools that topped the list had more than a third as many contributors, or raised more than $80,000. In all, 29,132 alumni of the 79 schools contributed $1,361,138.72 to their alma maters. None of the more than $80,000 contributed to the U. B. Medical School's Annual Participation Fund now under way was included in the 1953 report. — �6 Graduating Class of 745 Hears McConnell Dr. Thomas Raymond McConnell, in his last commencement address as University of Buffalo chancellor, warned that liberal arts, wrongly taught, can "stulify rather than free the mind." He spoke to an estimated 6,000 persons, including 745 graduates upon whom he later conferred degrees, gathered in front of Lockwood Memorial Library on Sunday, June 6th. It was the second year the exercises were held out of doors. Ideal, if rather chilly, weather prevailed. The sun obscured at first by clouds, came out during the graduates' processional to shine steadily thereafter. Brisk breezes rustled trees and rippled the ivy on campus buildings. Dr. McConnell, who leaves to become a professor of higher education at the University of California, defined liberal arts as the "primary inProperly struments of freedom." used, he said, they free the minds of men. "Yet they have not always been used to liberate," he declared, "and are not always so used today." He warned of "numerous calls to subtle rather than orthodoxy obvious, but just because they are ... subtle, especially powerful. "Everyone would agree that liberal education involves an understanding of our cultural and intellectual heritage," he said. "Yet, by selection, intellectual and social history can be used as an instrument of authority... Would Avoid Standardization "An education which inculcates a standardized view of our cultural heritage," he continued, "may smother intellectual freedom, dampen creative effort, discourage individuality and strengthen social inertia. "Used to these ends, potentially liberal studies serve as instruments of authority." Anything less than "freedom of dis- cussion, dissent and conclusion," Dr. McConnell stated, will "engender intellectual subservience rather than in- tellectual independence." Dr. McConnell spoke of "how transitory" much knowledge turns out to be, but added this does not mean everything is "so unstable the quest for truth is futile." Therefore, he declared, the liberally educated man is "inured to change, not in the sense of fickleness, but in the sense of capacity for growth. He is neither immobilized by dogmatism nor buffeted about by every wind of opinion that blows. "Fully conscious of his place in the stream of human history," Dr. McConnell said, "he strives to see life steadily and see it whole. To the liberally educated man, this is a lifelong goal and a lifelong process." Administration Praised Chancellor McConnell was introduced by Chairman Seymour H. Knox of the University Council. Knox called Dr. McConnell's administration "four full years of advancement and progress." At a point early in his address. Dr. McConnell paid tribute to Dean Julian Park, who will step down July 1 after 40 years as the College of Arts and Sciences' first and only dean. Dr. McConnell then dedicated the remainder of his remarks to Dean Park, who was prevented from attending by illness.

Although often, outspoken and forceful in stating his views, this trait stemmed from the complete honesty and integrity of his thought and never from a desire to do hurt or to decry the ideas of others. In his own field his knowledge was vast, and his memory phenomenal. Dr. Hubbard once told a friend that at one time in his undergraduate years he was undecided whether to make his career in literature and writing or in science. He chose well the science. The other interest, however, was always lively and showed itself in the clarity of his writings for publication and in his continuing interest in literature. He could recite many poems, and long passages from Shakespeare. He knew many of the Gilbert and Sullivan operettas by heart and could sing verse after verse of their patter songs. Although sometimes outwardly reserved, he was always a most genial and welcome companion, and he leaves a host of devoted friends. At the time of his death he was Consultant Biochemist for the Children's Hospital, the Millard Fillmore Hospital, the E. J. Meyer Memorial Hospital and the Veterans Administration Hospital in Buffalo. He was an affiliate member of the American Medical Association and a member of Nu Sigma Nu fraternity and of Sigma Xi and Phi Beta Kappa honorary societies; also a member of the American Chemical Society, the American Association of Clinical Chemists, the Buffalo Academy of Medicine, the Buffalo Society of Natural Sciences, the American Legion of Clifton Springs, the Appalachian Mountain Club, the University Club of Buffalo, the Faculty Club of the University of Buffalo, the Harvard Club of Buffalo, the Garoga Lodge 300, F. & A.

But next morning she was on the road again, and this time got through to unconscious As condensed by Reader's Digest fromLifetime Living. Reprinted, with permission, from the Reader's Digest of June, 1954. Albert Q. Maisel Torpy wasn't using his bedside manner that blizzardy night in 1931 when he put through a call to Kate Pelham Newcomb's cabin at Boulder Junction, in the wild lakeland of northern Wisconsin. "There's a woman down with pneumonia only eight miles north of you," he barked over the phone. "I'm 30 miles away and the roads won't be plowed till morning. Go out and take that call." "But I haven't practiced medicine since I left Detroit eight years ago," Kate Newcomb protested. "I don't even have a Wisconsin license." "License be damned!" roared Dr. Torpy. "No trained physician has any right to play housewife up in these woods. That woman needs you. So dig up your blankety-blank black bag and hike over there. "And by the way," he added before he slammed down the receiver, "don't put that bag back on the shelf when you're through. From now on you're taking all the calls in your end of the ld Dr. Tom county." Kate's husband, Bill, drove her as as he could make it in their old car. Then they hiked on snowshoes three miles through the deep-packed snow. Kate treated the woman while Bill built the fire and cared for her frightened children. Four days later Kate Newcomb drove into Dr. Torpy's office in Minocqua. "I'm afraid you'll still have to take the calls up my way," she began —and as the choleric doctor was about to explode she finished quickly "long enough for me to go down to Madison and get a license." Dr. Kate, as she has come to be known throughout the lake country, had always wanted to be a physician. But she was 28 before she finally won her father's consent to attend the University of Buffalo Medical School.' After she graduated in 1917 she married a Detroit auto worker and built up a flourishing practice in pediatrics and obstetrics. Then, in 1923, Bill Newcomb was stricken with a rare anemia, the result of exposure to fumes at his work. With her husband the young doctor far —■ Kale Pelham Newcomb, MD'l7 Lakeland Memorial Hospital is theremarkable tribute of a community and a nation —to a dedicated country doctor in the Wisconsin wilds —„— — moved to the north woods, where she spent years nursing him back to health. Her medical ambitions faded into the background, along with the rest of her city memories. "Then, after old Dr. Torpy's tirade," she says, "I came to. I didn't have to build up a practice. My neighbors were so short on doctoring I was hip deep in cases before the ink on my new license was dry." Summers, when the lake region crowded up with campers and fishermen, her phone was constantly ajangle with emergency calls. In winter she never drove her car without a shovel and snowshoes on the back seat. She set up offices in the village halls and schoolhouses of half a dozen hamlets —Manitowish Waters, Winchester, Winegar, Spider Lake and Boulder Junction—and rode a circuit to see those who could get into town. The rest of the time, driving more than 100 miles a day, she made her way up the back roads where snowplows never went, treating Indians, lumberjacks and trappers and their families. If Dr. Kate said she'd be there, people came to know they could count on her. But once she didn't turn up, and word flew over the telephone lines that Dr. Kate must be in trouble. Her neighbor, Sam Williams, went winding down White Sand Lake Road, hunting for her. He found her car in a snowbank, its engine still running. Kate, realizing that the engine fumes were overcoming her, had mustered enough strength to get out. Then, dazed, she had fallen into a snowdrift. Sam almost missed her, half covered as she was by snow. Dr. Kate was the patient. Later, when her son. Tommy, was ready for high school. Dr. Kate bought an old house in Woodruff, 25 miles from Boulder Junction. There she received office calls while Tommy pursued his studies. One day in the summer of 1949 Dr. Newcomb was called out to a resort camp where the wife of Art Rubloff, a wealthy Chicagoan, had been taken ill. Rubloff was shocked when he discovered that Dr. Kate, now turning 63, still had to take her patients so far for hospitalization. When his wife had recovered, Rubloff called together some of the townspeople in Woodruff. "It's time we brought a hospital to Dr. Kate," he told them. And he backed up his suggestion with a check for $100. TheLions Club adopted the hospital as its community-service project. An architect was asked to draw up the sketch for a ten-bed building. One man handed over the deed to a beautiful lakeside site at Woodruff. Outlying hamlets staged benefits and square dances. By the end of the summer $4,900 had been raised. It seemed a lot of money, but at that rate a decade or more would pass before they could begin construction. Two years ago they decided to break ground anyway. Volunteers supplied concrete and cinder blocks, mortar and timbers. But all that summer's round of pie-baking contests and dances still didn't raise enough money to keep ahead of rising construction costs. By the time the first snows fell in November the Lakeland Memorial Hospital stood as an ugly, half-finished shell. Two blocks away, at the Arbor Vitae-Woodruff High School, mathematics teacher Otto Burich was trying to give his class an idea of how big a really big number could be. The youngsters were intrigued by the idea of how-much-is-a-million. One boy said it might be fun to make a pile of a million pine cones. Then one of the girls raised her hand. "How big a pile would a million pennies make?" she demanded. The students roared with laughter and a voice from the rear shouted, "After we got the million pennies what would we do with 'em?" �Most of the pupils had a ready answer for that one. Let's collect a million pennies, they decided, and turn them over to Dr. Kate! Three months later the 130 pupils were more than halfway toward their goal and roaring down the homestretch at a rate of 7000 pennies a day. By Memorial Day, 1,200,000 coppers—four and a half tons of them-— were piled on the gymnasium floor, the contributions of 59,000 people from 48 states and 23 foreign countries. That May 30 the village staged a celebration and 20,000 persons came from all over the country to watch the largest parade Woodruff had ever seen. Led by majorettes stepping high, the throng followed the band through the gym and added more coins by the thousand. Construction work, with plans expanded to 18 beds, a fully equipped operating room and even oxygen piped to every bedside, got under way again. The hospital was to open in the spring, but still it would be without operating funds and saddled by a $32,000 mortgage. Last winter, in Hollywood, Ralph Edwards—who runs the TV show This Is Your Life—heard about Dr. Kate and the Million Penny Parade. An investigator sent to Wisconsin to check on the project came back bubbling with enthusiasm. Dr. Kate's relatives and childhood friends were sought out. The Los Angeles County Medical Society was drawn into the plot. Dr. Kate was invited to attend a medical conference planned for midMarch to honor Sir Alexander Fleming, the discoverer of penicillin. In Los Angeles Dr. Kate was placed in the charge of hospital official Don Boehme. His job was to keep her from reaching Mrs. Donna Hall, an old Buffalo friend who was to appear —as one of a score of surprise witnesses—on the TV program. Boehme traipsed Kate Newcomb through every new hospital from Long Beach to Pasadena. At the end of the second day Boehme drove his weary charge to the NBC studios. "I can't let you leave Los Angeles without seeing a live telecast," he told her. Then he rushed the bewildered doctor to the seat that had been reserved for her, just as the show went on the air. A few minutes later, on 20 million TV screens, all America watched the utter astonishment of the quiet country physician as the gentle hoax unfolded. ALUMNI CLUBS OFF TO EARLY SPRING START The months of April and May once again found the "old faithfuls" leading the way in area alumni club reunions. Binghamton's group started the activities with a dinner-meeting in the City Club where Windsor R. Smith, MD'l5, continues as club chairman and advisor. Speaker for the meeting was Nicholas Kish, Edß(Bus)'42, MBA'4B, assistant dean of Millard Fillmore College. The next evening found Mr. Kish joining forces with James E. "Jim" Peelle, University's director of athletics who was the featured guest of the Elmira alumni club. Following the well-attended dinner program, members elected A. Joseph Leahy, BS(Phar)'34, PhG'32, DDS'43, president with Earle G. Ridall, BA'3l, MD'34, vice-president; Macey Kantz, PhG'2o, treasurer; Louis B. Cooperman, BA'32, secretary; and Clyde L. Nagle, BA'3B, MD'43, retiring president, representative to the General brought about another two-night trip with meetings on May 13th and 14th, at which Dorothy M. Haas, BS(Bus) '32, director of Norton Union, informed the members of student ac- tivities on campus. Utica's club will elect officers at the next meeting, scheduled for September. President Ferdinand D. Tomaino, LLB'3O, presided. Russell L. Bow- ersox, BS(ME)'49 was elected chairman of the Albany club and will be assisted Alumni Board. Probably the most remarkable meeting was held in Pittsburgh, Pa., where, although confined to a hospital bed, Lucille Spitzer Goldring, A(ex) '40, arranged a complete dinner-reunion which featured Dr. Olive P. Lester, BS'24, MA'26, chairman of the department of psychology, as speaker. Kalman A. Goldring, LLB'39, acted as toastmaster and Harry W. Woolhandler, MD'32, was elected chairman for the coming year. The Utica and Albany groups by Marie Schuler, BS'35, EdM'46, co-chairman. Retiring president Elmer J. Boehoouersox, bs(me)'49 mer, arrangements and program chairman, was elected as representative to the General Alumni Board. Miss Haas was the guest speaker for the dinner program conducted in the University Club of Albany. May 17th was the reunion and dinner date for west coast alumni of the San Francisco area. Joseph M. Presant, MD'42, was chairman. One of the largest meetings of area groups was conducted by the Syracuse social work alumni on May 19th in the University Club, Syracuse, N. Y. Dean Niles Carpenter of University's School of Social Work attended as principal speaker. Busy Dr. Kate had never heard of Edwards' show, much less seen it. As, one by one, the voices of old friends and patients reached her ears she remained in a daze. Edwards closed the story of her life with the suggestion that listeners add their coins to the Million Penny Parade and thus help lift the burden of debt from Lakeland Memorial Hospital. Three days later—on Open House Day—thousands of Kate's Wisconsin neighbors gathered at Woodruff. Five miles down the road an escort of police cars was waiting. Their shrieking sirens brought Dr. Kate—utterly flabbergasted for the second time—into the heart of the crowd. She was led to the high school gym, where some 200 volunteers were busily sorting out contributions. Within two weeks almost $100,000 came in. Tears were coursing down the 68-year-old physician's cheeks as she tried to express her thanks. After decades of frontier medicine, the people of Wisconsin's lakeland were about to be freed from dependence on other folks' hospitals. For, call it what they would, this was no hospital for Dr. Kate alone. Already the north woods' first surgeon, Dr. Oliver Pfeiffer, had joined the new hospital's staff. Soon other doctors would come to take up their share of the load. Suddenly, in the midst of the ceremonies, someone tapped Dr. Kate's shoulder and whispered that Sam Williams' daughter-in-law had started labor. Kate Newcomb—with hundreds of the 3000 babies she had already delivered standing in the crowd before her—had to leave the celebration. She turned and, amid ringing cheers, started the 26-mile drive to Tomahawk for delivery number three thousand and one. 13 �14 ALUMNI NEWS ITEMS BY CLASSES Caputo, a case'31 SWk—Rose — Colonel Richard H. supervisor for the Buffalo ChapPeter, who is Ordnance Advisor to the '95 MD—Nelson G.

Yes—it was their first day of college and cold rain didn't dampen the enthusiasm as approximately 1600 neophytes swung into a week-long orientation program. By week's end, they were really "old timers" at campus living, especially fond of one of the nation's finest student centers Norton Hall. — THE GENERAL ALUMNI BOARD Executive Committee: President, Burr G.

Virus Laboratory to Study Vaccine Results A grant of $50,956 has been made to the University's Schoolof Medicine by the National Foundation for Infantile Paralysis for the activation of the School's virus laboratory. The laboratory is one of three in York State which have been designated to study blood specimens of a selected group of first, second, and third graders who participated in the field trials of the new Salk vaccine this Spring. In addition to studying the blood of an estimated 1500 injected children in Erie, Cattaraugus, and Monroe counties, the laboratory will do special studies of all first, second, and third gTaders who contract polio. Of course, laboratory personnel will not know which children received the Salk vaccine, which received a "control" material, or which received no injection at all. New A. M. A.'s PRESIDENT-ELECT TO ADDRESS MEDICAL FUND DINNER The president-elect of the American Medical Association, Dr. Elmer Hess of Erie, Pa., will address the first annual dinner of the Annual Participating Fund for Medical Education Thursday, Oct. 21. The dinner will be held at 7:30 o'clock in Norton Hall on the University campus. The Fund was organized in February with the goal of improving the basic science departments of the University's Medical School. To date 1004 physicians, including 222 non-graduates of the school,have pledged a total of $90,592 to be given annually for that purpose. Officers Will Be Elected Already the school has been able to increase its incoming class from 70 to 80 students, to make nine promotions and appointments and to increase many salaries. Each contributor becomes a member of the Fund, which will hold an annual business meeting; in February to elect officers. The Fund will not seek to dictate school policy, but will act in an advisory capacity. Physicians contributed more than $2,000,000 of the $4,500,000 that went into building the new Medical-Dental School building, Samuel P. Capen Hall. The Fund is making it possible for them bo utilize the facilities more fully than otherwise would have been possible. Active in Medical Societies Dr. Clifford C. Furnas, the new chancellor of the University, and Dr. Stockton Kimball, dean of the Medical School, also will speak at the October dinner. Dr. Hess, the principal speaker, has been president of both the Erie County (Pa.) Medical Society and the Pennsylvania State Medical Society, and has headed the American Urological Society. �Auit HSorn, KJttt sArireadu (I3ia: By StocktonKimball, MD29 Dean,School of Medicine In the nine months since the introduction of the program the Annual Participating Fund for Medical Education has made a strong start toward its two objectives: (1) Increased private support of private medical education; (2) Development of partnership and increased mutual understanding between the medical school, the practicing medical profession and the general public. In these nine months over $90,000 has been pledged on an annual basis by nearly 1000 physicians. This represents 80 f/£ of the physicians in Erie County, including 20f/r who are not TLB. alumni, plus a good response from the physicians in surrounding counties and the few more distant alumni who have been approached. Reserve Set Up 25% of the money pledged is being used to commence a permanent endowment fund for the medical school, the interest of which will be utilized for medical purposes including that of serving as a stabilization fund for any variation in annual income from the Participating Fund. The remainder is to be used annually for increasing the support of teaching in the medical school. The greatest need is in the basic science departments which, with the new building, now have room to expand to a size appropriate to their programs. To date $50,000 has been added to the current budgetof the basic science departments, entirely for salaries. This has been used to add new faculty members in order to permit the expansion of the entering medical classes which this year have been increased from 70 to 80 students. It has been used also to bring about a number of much needed salary increases. At Buffalo the salary scales are lower than in many competing making it more medical schools difficult to attract faculty members. The fund permits improvement in this situation, though not until the fund has been increased further will these salaries reach the levels of competing schools. — THE MEDICAL FUND Through the use of the Fund for faculty salary increases we have been able to make strong appointments for two Professorships. Dr. Douglas S. Riggs, M.D. of Bacteriology at the University of Tennessee and has done research in the metabolism of bacteria and studies of body protein in relation to immunity reactions in infection. An Appointments Possible (Yale University) has been appointed Professor and Head of the Department of Pharmacology to fill the position left vacant by the death of Dr. Roger Hubbard. Dr. Riggs was Assistant Professor of Pharmacology at the Harvard Medical School, a highly popular teacher and well qualified investigator, especially in the field of thyroiddrugs. He has participated actively in the teaching of Pharmacology to sophomores, in the Therapeutic Conferences for seniors at the hospital and in the new experimental program for graduate stu- Harvard Medical School. He began his duties in Buffalo in dents at the September. Grant L. Rasmussen, Ph.D. (University of Minnesota) in charge of teaching and research in Neuro Anatomy, has been promoted from Associate Professor to Professor of Anatomy. To accept this position he declined two competing offers for prominent research, positions in U.S. governmental institutions in Washington, D.C. Without the aid of the Participating Fund we should not been able to hold Dr. Rasmunssen. He has shown a real capacity have for interesting a number of students in special study and investigation in the field of Neuro Anatomy and in developing an interrelated teaching program in Neural Anatomy, Neuro Physiology and Neurology. An additional Assistant Professor, Harold Brody, Ph.D. (University of Minnestota) has been added to the Department of Anatomy. He was former Assistant Professor of Anatomy at the University of North Dakota and is interested in research studies on age changes in the human cerebral cortex. An Assistant Professor of Bacteriology, Dr. Robert J. Kieber, Ph.D. (University of Tennessee), with an unusual background in chemical engineering as well as in Bacteriology has been appointed as of September. He was formerly Assistant Professor 5 additional Assistant Professor Pathology, Dr. George Rozsa, M.D. (Hungary) has been appointed to introduce a program in experimental histo-chemistry and elective microscopy in the Pathology Department. Prior to this appointment he was Assistant Professor of Pathology at the University of Virginia, then Research Pathologist at the Roswell of Park Memorial Institute. With only three men in the Department, Biochemistry has been shorthanded. Dr. John V. Fopeano who has just received his Ph.D. degree from the University of Michigan has been appointed Instructor in Biochemistry and will begin his duties October 15th. He is well qualified and experienced in teaching and has been active in research in the metabolism of the liver. Miss Irene Oyen has been added as a full-time Instructor in Physiology. She has been working- as a graduate student in the Department on a grant from the U.S.P.H.S. and had shown herself so able in research and teaching that she received an offer to become a member of the Physiology Department in another medical school. Her preference was to remain here but without the added funds from the Participating Fund, this would not have been possible. Meeting on October 21 Members of the medical profession who have shown their keen interest in the strengthening of private medical education and thereby of private medical practice through becoming members in the Annual Participating Fund for Medical Education, are urged to attend the First Annual Report dinner meeting of the Fund October 21st. Here the Chancellor and the Dean will report further on the importance to the University of this Fund and of the backing and interest of members of the medical profession; and Dr. Elmer Hess, President-Elect of the A.M.A., will discuss the significance of this Fund to American medicine. �6 Murray Appointed Dean of Pharmacy Daniel H. Murray, assistant dean md assistant professor in the Uni.-ersity's School of Pharmacy, has been appointed dean of the School of Pharmacy replacing Dr. A. Bertram Lemon. PhG'l3, who retired. Dr. Lemon will continue in his post as professor of materia medica Yean Murray however. Author of many technical articles in the field of pharMr. Murray biochemistry, and attended Ontario College of Pharmacy at the University of Toronto, McGill University, the British Instittute of Engineering: Technology, the University of Saskatchewan, and the macy University of London. During War 11, Dean Murray was a squadron leader in the Royal Air From 1950 until 1953, he was assistant professor of Pharmaceutical chemistry at the University of To- Force. and joined the University's School of Pharmacy faculty in 1953. ronto Music Courses Now In Their Second Year Concentrated music courses began their second year at the University with the opening of the fall term, being offered through day courses in the College of Arts & Sciences and through evening courses in Millard Fillmore College. These lead to a bachelor of arts degree. In addition there are several courses and individual instruction in practical music being provided to apply towards graduate credit. A program for potential teachers of music will be inaugurated in 1955-56 and will be included in the offerings of the School of Education. Nurses Meet For Curriculum Parley Nursing educators from all sections of the country will meet at the University on October 10th for an allday discussion of the master's degree curriculum in public nursing. Associate Professor Lydia Reitz of the department of public health nursing in the University's School of Nursing will be chairman of the meeting to be held in Norton Hall. Slee Bequest Is For Musical Purposes The will of Frederick C. Slee, Buffalo attorney, musician, and yachtsman, naming the University as the ultimate beneficiary of his estate and providing that the income be used chiefly for musical purposes, was probated this summer in the Erie County Surrogate's Court. Mr. Slee's will gives life use of his estate, said to be a substantial one, to his widow. Thereafter, the net income of the bequest is to be used by the University in these ways: I—Hiring1—Hiring a musician equal to the rank of Paris conservatorie and master teacher of harmony, counterpoint and fugue. 2—Furnishing by the school of five public concerts annually, the admission price to be fixed by the university. String quartets of national and international renown are to be featured, with other combinations to be used sparingly in their stead. Works of Beethoven. Haydn and Mozart are to be used. 3—Accumulated unexpended income is to be utilized every three years for teaching purposes in history, philosophy and economics. The will specifies no money is to be spent from the fund on buildings, teaching of instruments or voice. 4—Additional quartet concerts of Beethoven's works are to be played either in June or the fall by "artists of outstanding excellence, with no more than one concert daily." "The hall shall be acoustically the best available, skilfully lighted and seating not more than 700." the will reads. Two Students Confound Famed "Tin Pan Alley" By Ed Kouahuski Buffalo (From bfenmg Sews) Two 20-year old University students have done something which well might leave even the oldest Tin Pan Alley resident gasping with envy. They have succeeded in—hang on to your piano, now—selling the very first song on which they collaborated. And, to further confound the practicemakes-perfect school, the lyricist up to then had not written anything even remotely resembling a lyric not even a couplet for his girl on ValenDay. tine's The new song-writing team consists of Anthony C. Pawlowski, son of Mr. and Mrs. Eugene Z. Pawlowski of 39 Eggert Rd., and Richard Turnquist, son of Mr. and Mrs. Edward Turnquist of 430 Chautauqua Aye., — Jamestown. They said that Moonlight Music Inc. of New York has purchased their song, "You're My Own." and that copies of it should be on sale in music stares by July 1. APPOINTMENT BOOK! Collaborate by Chance They also say that they have been assured that the song will be recorded shortly by a well-known orchestra. The collaboration was born by chance. Richard, who wrote the music, has been playig the piano since he was 13 and, occasionally, writing music of his own. Nothing elaborate, just short snatches of he says melody. While playing in his fraternity house. Alpha Sigma Phi, or campus parties, he would "sneak" some of his own music into the repertoire. It was while Richard was playing one of his own melodies the one at a they later collaborated on party, that Anthony came up and The Alumni Association of the Medical School has set its annual Spring Clinical Day for Saturday, March 26, 1955, at Hotel Statler, Buffalo.

Richard said that it had no name or lyrics, "something I wrote myself." The melody haunted Anthony and, a few days later, he saw Richard and told him he thought he had a lyric for it. "We skipped classes for a month while we worked on it," they both admitted. A few days after they sent it out, Moonlight Music called their fraternity house and said that a contract fContinued on page 6) �Classics Professor Schauroth Dies Suddenly by Prof. John X. Hortoa On the third of August last at his summer home near Mohawk Point, Edward Grotrian Schauroth, Chairman of the Department of Classics and Andrew V. V. Raymond Professor of Classics, died of a coronary thrombosis. Survived by his wife, Alice Nott Schauroth, by his daughter, Mrs. Hollis Ritchie Upson of Batavia and by two grandchildren, Professor Schauroth was the last of his immediate male line of the family Schauroth which is an armigerous one, entitled to the prefix yon and ramifying through the yon Arnim and other families of the ancient Prussian squirearchy. On the maternal side he was descended from a landowning family seated in Brunswick not very far from the old cultural capital of Wolfenhe alluded humorously to Theodore buettel. He was himself born in Buffalo, January 12, 1888,the son of the late Udo Schauroth and Emma Grotrian, his wife. From his parents Edward Schauroth inherited a respect for learning which was confirmed and given direction when as a student at Lafayette High School he came under the spell of Philip Becker Goetz. To Goetz's alma mater he repaired in due course; hence it was that in the famous class of 1910 he was graduated from Harvard College, A.8., summa cum laude. On the occasion of the commencement he delivered a Latin oration in which he alluded humorously to Theodore Roosevelt's recent hunt of the big game in Africa; and he succeeded in drawing first an appreciative chuckle, then gusty laughter from the great Theodore himself who sat near by on the stage. The next year Schauroth published in the Harvard Studies a learned article on "The Hypozomator of Greek Ships". By that time he had already entered the academic profession as an instructor at Worcester Academy whence after two years he went to be the head of the Department of Foreign Languages at the Friends' Central School in Philadelphia. From that city he returned to his native one in 1923 to join the Department of Classics in the University of Buffalo the Chairman of which at the time was Philip Becker Goetz, his mentor of High School days and his beloved friend. At the University of Buffalo Germany lent a sombre cast to the course Edward G. Schauroth 1888 1954 - remained for the rest of his life. He succeeded Goetz as the Chairman of the Department and he upheld and carried on the Goetz tradition of humane learning and inspired teaching, reinforced with an erudition drawn from study and travel abroad. Professor Schauroth visited Italy, Crete and Egypt. He roamed Greece. There by happy chance he encountered the noted scholar, Hiller yon Gaertringen, whose congenial and learned companionship made on his mind an impression never-to-be-forgotten. In 1929 he studied for a summer at Goettingen. He came away thence with mixed feelings about republican Germany. On the eve of the first World War he had visited imperial Germany then at the zenith of her splendor; and he had done so by no means as an alien to the inner circles of her culture and her power. He and his bride had been hospitably entertained by his own yon Arnim relations on their Prussian estate. He had himself been at once instructed and delighted with the lectures of Ulrich yon Wilamowitz-Moellendorff at the University of Berlin; and these together with his later conversations he with Hiller yon Gaertringen enriched both his scholarship and his personality and gave him gracious and august memories that endured to his dying day. His association with families and scholars in the tradition of the older of his reflections on the Germany of subsequent times and beyond doubt deepened his understanding of classic tragedy and of that Vergilian pathos of which he wrote so movingly in his book on Vergil and his View of Life. Those who knew him feel almost instinctively that when in that book he deals with the episode of ./Eneas' contemplation of the sculptured scenes of the Trojan War, he is thinking as well of a modern as of an ancient overthrow. Sooner by many years than the citizens of his native country, he had occasion to reflect with a poignant personal emotion on Vergil's "majestic sadness" over "the doubtful doom of humankind". The transciency of temporal splendor was not to him a theological notion or a poetic fancy but an actuality experienced. To him the words were not mere literature but the tragedy of life: Venit summa dies et ineluctabile tempos Dardaniae. Fuimus Troes; fuit Ilium et ingens gloria Teucrorum ... Thoughchiefly an humanist, Professor Schauroth had a range of scholarship that went beyond the humanities. A man who would forget the frustrations of the daily round in grappling with mathematical problems, he combined literary and scientific learningto an unusual degree, as may be seen in his essay on "Some Ancient Solar Observations" and in a paper on Hesiod which he was preparing for publication on the eve of his death. Inthe first of these, written in English, he demonstrated that as early as the time of Eratosthenes "the ancients could and did measure celestial angles to an accuracy of a minute of arc under favorable conditions; and that under decidedly unfavorable conditions observations made by men like Pytheas may convince the modern world of the truth of the navigator's claims to have been where he said he was, whereas the same evidence was branded false by his contemporaries." In the second paper he studied the movements of certain heavenlybodies observed by Hesiod as practical guides for the farmer's year and on the basis of astronomical calculations explained how those movements had shifted through the centuries so that they no 7 �8 Dr. Schauroth (Cont'd.) longer could afford the farmer the practical help which they had done in Hesiod's time. Written in a lucid, swift-paced Latin, copiously citing Hesiod in the original Greek and involving methematical astronomy as the core of the argument, the paper is the work of no mere specialist but of a polymath rare indeed in this age of specialization. This versatility, a versatility that made him conversant with Goethe and old Gothic, with chemistry and Platonic philosophy, with Aristotelian canons of criticism and with both the theory and practice of navigation, was reflected in his teaching which in turn reflected something more vital than diverse intellectual acquisitions. It reflected a man of a many-faceted temperament. Thus, when he expoundedHerodotus, a student had the feeling that in the Great King and his mighty host, the West was already at grips with the Soviet power though no word about current events may ever have been uttered. When he taught Plai.tus and Terence, one somehow by some sort of subtle alchemy had the illusion that both teacher and taught were treading the boards with comic exhilaration. If the course was Latin prose, one neglected grammar and syntax to his peril. The course however was no exercise in pedantry but rather a study of the nature and genius of two great instruments of human expression, the English language as well as the Latin; and though the niceties of Latin phrasing might in the course of time fade out of remembrance, the idea of good prose, whether Latin or English, would still remain, a prose that would be precise without being precious, elegant and at the same time vigorous and masculine. If poetry was the subject, the student could expect to hear Milton as well as Vergil and Homer. Milton's use of Homeric similes was one of Professor Schauroth's favorite themes. When he dwelt upon it, with Paradise Lost his illustration, the cadenced reading filled the room with a sonorous and stately music.

No man savored conviviality with more relish than he. If he liked anything better than to drink the convivial cup, it was to sail a boat. For the sheer fun of it he taught sailing to a succession of youngsters for more than a score of years as they visited his cottage near Mohawk Point and summer after summer put out with him in his trim craft on Lake Erie off that pleasant cape. The sport had been his favorite one since boyhood; had never failed to exhilarate him as independent of motor or machine he summoned with shrewd skill the natural force of wind and wave to send the keel cleaving clean and steady through the swift spume. There can be no leave to doubt that at such times, moving though he was over a fresh inland sea, he remembered in hexameters that rolled with the rolling waters, those sailors .. of antiquity: in altum laeti et spnmas salis acre ruebant ... There was a certain fitness in the fact that it was while Edward Schauroth was sailing that the heart attack began which a few hours later proved I'ela dabant mortal. Pictured above is Elmo L.

Pratt of the University takes issue with the contention of Rear Admiral Robert A. Theobald, USN, retired, that the late President Roosevelt enticed the Japanese into attacking the Pacific Fleet at Pearl Harbor by withholding essential information from the military commanders there. Dr. Pratt is the Distinguished Samuel P. Capen professor of American History and Dean Emeritus of the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences at the University. Admiral Theobald's contention is contained in his recently-published book, "The Final Secret of Pearl Harbor." In Lance Zavitz's review in your June 2 issue of Rear Admiral Theobald's book, "The Final Secret of Pearl Harbor," gives an excellent summary of the thesis of the book but is entirely uncritical in failing to point out weaknesses in the thesis and alternative explanations of the tragic events of Dec. 7, 1941. Admiral Theobald's thesis, readers of the book or the review will recall, is that President Roosevelt, in order to get the United States into the war against Germany, with public opinion united in support of the war, enticed the Japanese into attacking the Pacific fleet at Pearl Harbor. To insure that the attack would be made and that Japan would thus fire the first shot, he ordered Gen. Marshall, Army chief-of-staff, and Admiral Stark, chief of naval operations, to withhold from the commanders at Pearl Harbor vital information that would have alerted them to the attack that Roosevelt knew to be imminent. Produces No New Evidence So Japan attacked, destroying- two U. S. battleships and immoblizingsix others, knocking out the Army Air Force, and taking more than 3000 American lives. Germany and Italy followed their ally in declaring war, and so the United States entered the European war by "the back door." This thesis is not new. It has already been stated in more or less detail in at least five or six books by writers of the violently anti-Roosevelt school. Nor does Admiral Theobald produce any new evidence for the thesis. His conclusions rest entirely upon deductions from well-known facts, which are certainly susceptible of different interpretations. The great amount of attention which the book has commanded seems attributable to (1) its advance publication in a weekly magazine of wide (2) its sensational title, circulation, (3) its concentration on a single issue, (4) the fact that it is sponsored by Admiral Husband E. Kimmel (an interested party) and, with reservations, by Admiral William F. Halsey. Some Good Questions Raised One pertinent fact that Mr. Zavitz fails to mention in his review is that Gen. Marshall and Admiral Stark, answering direct questions from the New York Times after the first publication of Theobald's argument, denied categorically, first, that they had ever received from President Roosevelt orders of the kind that Theobald assumes; and, second, that they ever knew of any plan to entice the Japanese to attack Pearl Harbor. (New York Times, April 18, 1954.) These denials from Marshall and Stark, for whom Theobald expresses high regard are not to be lightly brushed off. Without becoming involved in the intricacies of a very complex subject, I should like to indicate a few other reasons for regarding the Theobald thesis with a high degree of skepticism. In a review of Theobald's book in The Reporter (June 8, 1954), Mr. Louis Morton raises some very good questions. To believe in this long-range plot of Mr. Roosevelt, it is necessary to suppose that he knew long in advance that the Japanese would, if sufficiently tempted, attack Pearl Harbor, and that, if Japan attacked the United States, Germany would do likewise. Yet the Japanese Governmnt did not approve the Pearl Harbor attack until October 1941, long after Roosevelt's plan is supposed to have been laid; and not until Dec. 5, 1941, on the very eve of Pearl Harbor, did Japan get positive assurances that Germany would join her against the United States. For the Axis pact of Sept. 27, 1940, was a defensive treaty which bound each of the parties to come to the other's aid only if the latter were the victim of attack. Was F.D.R. gifted with prophetic foresight that enabled him to predict the actions of the Japanese and German Governments long before they were known to the actors themselves ? Negligence All Way Down Readers of the book will find that the conclusions rest very largely on the following reasoning: Gen. Marshall and Admiral Stark were good officers with excellent records. Yet they were unbelievably negligent in failing to transmit to Pearl Harbor last-minute warnings that war was about to begin and certain facts which, with the benefit of hindsight, Dr. Pratt we can see pointed to an attack on Pearl Harbor. Stark did send to Admiral Kimmel art: Pearl Harbor on Nov. 27 a message which he labeled a "war warning." Marshall at the same time apprised Gen. Short, Kimmel's Army colleague, that war with Japan was imminent. Neither Marshall nor Stark, in the present writer's humble opinion, followed up those warnings as persistently as should have been done, nor kept a close enough eye upon the precautions taken or omitted by Short and Kimmel. In fact, ever since the details were first brought to public attention, this writer has maintained that there was blameworthy negligenceall the way down the line from President Roosevelt to some junior officers at Pearl Harbor. Moves Not Bluffs But negligence is one thing, conspiracy another. A reason for the negligence, though not an excuse for it, is found in the ostentatious preparations that Japan was making in a quarter far removed from Pearl Har- bor. A great troop convoy was steaming down the coast of Indo-China; its destination might be British Malaya or the Netherlands Indies. Big troop concentrations had been observed on Formosa, apparently aimed at the Phillippines. These were not bluffs, they were in deadly earnest. But they also had the effect (and this was probably intended) of diverting attention in Washington from the situation at Pearl Harbor. Apparently it occurred to no one in authority that the Japanese might hit simultaneously at widely-separated targets. At least this seems quite as tenable a hypothesis as Admiral Theobald's. (Continued on Page 11) meant �10 "FOUR LEAF CLOVER" BACKFIELD"SHANNON GREEN" LINE FOR 54 Cage Coach & Players Meet In Naval Uniform Oh yes, we almost forgot to mention that there are at least two men backing up each of the backfield vets. They include quarterback Ed McQuown, just returned from four years of navy duty. Then we can count on halfbacks Charlie Daniels, All-High sensation from Buffalo's Hutchinson High School; Carmen Scarpino. vestpocket speedster from East Rochester; Paul Snyder, a never-say-die plunger from Mansfield, Pa.; and Lil' Gil Savitzky, senior from New York City. Capt. Kiefer Ol' number 73 will sport the "C" for captain this year as big Ernie Kiefer, Business Administration senior, leads the Bulls of Buffalo into the 1954 gridiron wars. Standing 6-0" and tipping the scales at 225, the likable left tackle isn't wasting time to moan over the loss of the six stars of last season's eleven. He's throwing the book at the lads when it comes to calisthenics and conditioning. Head CoachFritz Febel, now in his eighteenth year at Buffalo and his .. third as head coach has this to say. "We may not be the biggest squad of Bulls but we'll be the best conditioned. We're gonna win some ball games." It's a "clover-leaf backfield" for sure, starting with veteran quarterback Ray Kennedy, a senior with three years of signals to draw from. Then there is speed to burn in the halfbacks, Pete Rao and Bill Crow- ley, both returning lettermen. Probably the biggest gap was left when gigantic Elmer Jahn vacated the fullback spot to become an alumnus. Elmer's 220 pounds will be more than capably replaced by the comparatively small 170 poundBill Kindel, a locomotive junior who averaged ten yards per carry last season in the Alfred game and had a season average of six plus. Line Is Green Maybe shamrock green is stretching things a little in describing the line. Starting at center, we find veteran Norb "Curly" Jezewski, a junior who capably understudied Ron "Rock" Laßocque who graduated last June and is now head coach of the freshman crew. Fighting for the starting center spot is Dave Nelson Hutchinson High. from Guard duties will no doubt go to letterman Paul Waldmiller, a junior, and Fran Mormul, a senior. If it's intestinal fortitude that is needed at guard, look to little Norm "Peas and Carrots" Pyzikiewicz who won AllHigh honors at Seneca Vocational High School. He's as sturdy as they come and is backed up by sophomores Chuck Krawczyk and Keith Lasher. Senior guard material includes Bernie Clement. Moving out to the tackles, it is a sure bet that first-string chores go to Captain Ernie Kiefer, Bob Steffenhagen at 246 pounds, John Lageman at 218 pounds, these mammoths being tailed by sophomore Ed Gibeau at 215 pounds. The graduation of Charley O'Brien left a pass-snatching dent in the end zone and only the actual competition will prove the flanking abilities of sophomores Roger Dayer, John Lipinski and Dick Martin. Two radical shifts were effected during Fall workouts. They found junior letterman Frank "Chick" Nero moved from the backfield to end, Reunion at the expense of the U. S. Navy was the order of the dayduring September for, left to right, Harold R. Kuhn, Edß's2, now an ensign on active duty in Naval aviation; Robert R. Kramer, Edß'so, Naval reservist ; and Malcolm S. Eiken, Minnesota '38, University's head coach of basketball and also a Naval reserv- ist. Kuhn, Navy pilot and sensational cage star of recent years, had just flown into Jacksonville Naval Air Station from Newfoundland in time for a reunion with his former coach and Kramer, who managed the team when Hal was captain. Eiken and Kramer are "Weekend Warriors" at Niagara Falls Naval Air Station and were on "cruise" at Jacksonville for two weeks. where he shows tremendous possibilities. Work-horse senior George "Bumper" Movesian who has mastered every backfield position is now appearing in the guard slot where he should prove to be the remedy for the loss of sensational Tom Radich. Now, perhaps, you can detect a slight smile when we say green line. Look to the Bulls to run, run, and run faster than before, with plenty of surprises in the aerial department. Mix well with a few formations the opposition hasn't seen before and you should come up with the potential for a winning season. �1 ALUMNI NEWS ITEMS BY CLASSES 89 MD—Henry J.

Dr. Pratt Disputes Pearl Harbor "Secret" (Continued from Page 7) In fact, Theobald's main line of reasoning1 can easily be turned against him. He assures us that Admiral Kimmel and Gen. Short were, like Marshall and Stark, fine officers with excellent records. Yet Kimmel and Short were, by any fair standard, guilty themselves of amazing negligence. Ten days after receipt of the "war warning," certainly knowing Japan's reputation for hitting first and declaring war afterwards, they had done nothing to disturb the normal, peace-time, week-end atmosphere at Pearl Harbor and its environs. No special patrols were sent out; the radar installation was on a part-time practice basis; Armyplanes were parked so as to be useless except as targets for the enemy; anti-aircraft ammunition was carefully stored far from the guns to prevent deterioration. Kimmel and Short received more than their share of the blame in the early investigations. I mention their shortcomings here only to ask if they, as "good officers," could be so careless in Hawaii, why is it so difficult to believe that "good officers" Marshall and Stark could not be careless in Washington .except upon orders from the President? We have now, as was said before, their categorical denial that there were such orders. Arguments Will Go On We are faced, as Raymond Moley pointed out in The News some weeks ago, with two hypotheses, either of which can be made to fit the known facts. Each student of the subject will select the hypothesis that seems to him more credible. Some, goingalong with Admiral Theobald, will believe that Roosevelt, who loved the Navy, deliberately invited the destruction by surprise attack of the Pacific battleship fleet; that he did this in order to get the United States into a war in which a fleet of battleships would be of great importance. Others will find their credulity less strained by the theory that Roosevelt, Marshall, Stark, and others in Washington, with their attention drawn to obvious aggressive moves by Japan in the Far East, allowed themselves to minimize unduly the chances of a simultaneous attack on Pearl Harbor. It seems certain that the argument between exponents of these two schools of thought is destined to go on for many years and that until some "secret" more "final" than Admiral Theobald's is brought to light, the truth about the preliminaries of Pearl Harbor will not be established beyond controversy. 13 �14 COMPLETE LIST OF "LOST" ALUMNI If you know the present addresses of these alumni, the Alumni Office, Hayes Hall, University of Buffalo, Buffalo 14, New York, would appreciate your sending- them in.

The Case Of The Missing Cornerstone Razing of the old Medical and Dental School buildings in High and Goodrich Streets began this summer to make way for a $500,000 hotel. The new hotel will be a 72-unit twostory brick edifice to be known as the Towne House. Airway Hotel, Inc., buyers of the site, has announced that their new building will be "a hotel with motel features" and will front on High Street. An element of mystery has been injected into the razing—a "case of the missing cornerstone." The new owners have been asked by University officials to deliver the contents of a copper box supposed to have been concealed in the cornerstone when it was placed in 1892 in the lobby of the old Dental building. As the Bulletin goes to press, however, workmen report they have so far been unable to locate it. Wonder what's in it? So do we. �U. S. Postage 1c PAID Buffalo, N. Y. Permit No. 311 BroadeningtheBase Executives and trustees of universities, schools, hospitals, and other service organizations are agreed that in the future the strength of the financial structure of their institutions will depend in large In the past, a few very measure on small bequests. wealthy philanthropists have made generous gifts and bequests to institutions. It is hoped they will continue to do so, but it is certain that income tax and inheritance taxes will shrink the size of those gifts and bequests. Broadening the base of support is necessary. Large numbers of gifts and bequests will insure the continuance and even the extension of the firm support that institutions need. Broadening the base of support is desirable. Thousands of people giving are thousands of people interested. An institution's influence and importance grow with the number of people who contribute to its maintenanceand advancement. The University of Buffalo naturally hopes to attract large bequests; but small legacies from a greater number of people of limited means are both desir- able and indispensable.

Chancellor Honored At Reception The new Chancellor of the Univer- sity was introduced to nearly 400 community business leaders at a reception recently given by Seymour H. Knox, Chairman of the University Council. They were captivated by the informal comments of the Chancellor concerning his first weeks in office. "Judging from the questions I have been asked so far," he told the group, "the most important issue facing the University at the present time seems to be whether or not we are going to have a good football team. May I reply with a quotation from a bellhop who took me to my room in a Washington club this summer? The room was stuffy, and I asked the boy how to turn on the air-conditioning unit window." "Well," he answered, "that poses a problem to which I unfortunately do not have the answer". At the beginning of Freshman Orientation Week, in the traditional address of welcome, Dr. Furnas asserted, "When you get through with Orientation Week you'll know what education is all about, so you're going to be able to start with quite an advantage over the faculty." An easy relaxed manner, sense of humor, warmth and unflagging interest in everything and everyone about him, on the part of the Chancellor, is winning manyfriends for himself and the University. in the �4 CHANCELLORS INAUGURATION PROGRAMFRID6aTAHUYn,Sd7JtNhRY195 School of Engineering Symposium "Engineering Problems of High-Speed Flight" THURSDAY, JANUARY 6 —6:30 p.m. Civic Dinner, Hotel Statler An Address by The (Informal) Dr. Hugh L.

What kind of institution should the University of Buffalo try to be? Upon becoming Chancellor of the University this year, many problems were brought to myattention, but this seemed to be the underlying issue. Should the University be allowed just to grow like Topsy, or should there be an over-all, long-range MasterPlan to form a framework for day-to-day decisions. I am not, I must confess, a believer in laying out exact courses for the distant future, but an over-all plan could help us to keep advancing in the right quadrant. One of my first decisions as Chancellor was to ask five Council members to form an Ad Hoc Committee to help me in drawing up a Master Plan. They are: Mr. Seymour H. Knox, chairman of the Council; Mr. Alex F. Osborn, vice-chairman; Mr. George F. Goodyear, Mr. Francis A. Smith; Mr. Charles H. Diefendorf and Mr. R. Lindley Murray. They will join with the Council and the faculty of the University to make the big decisions that necessarily lie at the heart of long-range planning. It is of course much too early to try to guess what sort of Master Plan this committee will make, but here is an outline of some of the questions it is considering. Teaching Objectives First of all, there is the fundamental matter of teaching objectives. How many students should the University of Buffalo try to accommodate? Dr. Richard M. Drake, director of the University's Office of Institutional Research, estimates that by 1970, the number of students icanting to go to college in Western New York will be almost doubled! Because of the rise in the birth rate during and after World War 11, there will be about an 80*% increase in the number of college-age students in Western New York in the next fifteen years, and if the economy continues to prosper, it is likely that an increasingly large percentage of high school graduates CLIFFORD C. FURNAS, Chancellor to college. The prepresent number of college students in fifteen years sounds unbelievable, but it is based on concrete facts. The college students of 1970 have already been born, and can be counted. We are faced, then, with the staggering question of whether the University of Buffalo should try to double its facilities before 1970. If we do, the job will be tremendous. If we don't, we will face the danger of creating an educational vacuum in Western New York which the State would almost certainly feel obligated to fill. This problem is only the beginning. How much should we concentrate on undergraduate education, graduate and professional education? What parts of the University should be expanded the most ? And how should the scope of the subjects taught be limited ? Should we teach any subjects for which there is a demand, or should we select relatively few? will want diction of now? to go years twice the are already overcrowded. If the student body is to be increased at all, new classrooms, laboratories and all attendant facilities will have to be built. Research Another basic question involves research. How much research should the University undertake ? What kind ? Should we concentrate on research for local industries, on research for the federal government? Should we confine ourselves to fundamental research or should we undertake a substantial amount of applied research ? If we're going to do all these things, how should we divide our energies and resources? Naturally, there are no easy answers to all these problems and the decision of what we should do leads directly to the one-word question: how ? What will be the human, physical and financial requirements for carrying out the duties of the University, once they have been defined? How many new faculty members will have to be found? What salaries will have to be provided in order to get people of the proper caliber? And how many new buildings will have to be constructed to house the University of Buffalo as it will be fifteen from Present buildings Financial Plans The Master Plan will not stop with a definition of proper duties for the University, and a description of human and physical facilities needed for undertaking them. Necessary changes will have to be translated into dollars and cents. Dr. Talman W. Van Arsdale, Jr., has already been named Director of Development to help the Committee make a thorough study of the University's sources of support. At present, the University gets almost ninety per cent of its operational income from student fees. Among its additional sources of support are its endowment income, gifts, (both restricted and unrestricted in purpose), research and service contracts, grants and other subsidies from government, industry, foundations, individuals and associations. The Master Plan will try to envision the part each kind of support should play in the future. All methods of going after the necessary support will be studied, and the most suitable ones selected. Although the Master Plan will be both a declaration of intent and a study of ways and means, I personally think that the most important part of it will be an expression of basic convictions on what the University of Buffalo should be, regardless of the difficulties involved in reaching the goal. The Committee is trying to decide what should be done, not what is easy to do. A glance at the accomplishments of the past fifteen years increases my confidence that the people of the Niagara Frontier will make it possible for the University to do its job, whatever the cost in time, effort and dollars. By defining and clarifying that job, I hope the Master Plan will help. My intention is for it to guide our progress without hobbling it. �7 UNIVERSITY NEWS AND CAMPUS BRIEFS Michael Hall, New Dormitory, Is Dedicated On October 30th the University laid the cornerstone for the fourth dormitory to be constructed in the past two years. A $500,000 facility, it is scheduled for occupation February 1, 1955, and will house 149 male students. The new dormitory, Edward Michael Hall, is named for the late Edward Michael, former Council member of the University and chairman of the Building and Grounds Committee for over thirty years. Attending the ceremony were Mr. Michael's three daughters, the Misses Clara, Edwina and Jeanette. Despite intermittent rain, about 100 persons gathered before the partiallycompleted structure to hear Dr. Clifford C. Furnas, Chancellorof the University, state that the new dormitory gives "concrete evidence of the faith of the financial circles of the Niagara Frontier in the continuing and useful function of the University of Buffalo." The Chancellor noted with pride that the building was entirely locally financed, as are three other dormitories on the east side of a planned quadrangle of residence halls. Dr. Furnas paid high tribute to Mr. Michael, who died last year at the age of 101, for his vision and work in planning the extension of the University. He said that the master plan for the campus, which still largely stands, was worked out by Mr. Michael and the late Chancellor Charles P. Norton. The other dormitories, Dr. Furnas pointed out, are named after Walter P. Cooke, former chairman of the council; Jacob F. Sohoelkopf, a former council member and benefactor; and Lillias M. Macdonald, dean of women until 1952. He said the dormitories will permit the school to attract out-of-town students thereby enabling it to gain the influence of students as well as faculty from many regions. He paid tribute also to Karr Parker, present chairman of the Building and Grounds Committee who, he said, "is so nobly carrying the torch laid down a few years ago by Mr. Michael." Mr. Parker reported that in recent years the University has erected buildings valued at ten million dollars. Pictured above at the ceremonies marking the dedication of Michael Hall, fourth on the University campus, are Chancellor Clifford C. and the Misses Clara, Edwina and feanette Michael, daughters of the late Edward Michael, after whom the new dormitory is named. of five proposed student dormitories Furnas Simon Music Scholarship Winners Announced The D. Bernard Simon Music Scholarships of $200 each have been awarded this year to a freshman and a sophomore in the University's College of Arts and Sciences. The freshman winner is Robert H. Bauer of Cheektowaga. Mr. Bauer is married and currently employed as a wireman for the Westinghouse Elec- tric Corp. He is also bass soloist for St. Peter's Evangelical and Reformed Church. The sophomore recipient is Ronald E. Roblin of Buffalo. Mr. Roblin is a graduate of Bennett High School in Buffalo. The scholarship fund was established a year ago in memory of Mr. Simon, LLB'3O, Buffalo lawyer, businessman and musician. Pharmacy Auxiliary Aids Infirmary Fund A fund to establish an infirmary on the University campus was inaugurated November 11, 1954 with a "Monte Carlo Nite" celebration at the Buffalo Trap and Field Club. The Activity was sponsored by The Woman's Auxiliary of the Erie County Pharmaceutical Association. Among those persons primarily responsible for the success of the affair was Mrs. Catherine Redden, PhG '18. Incidentally, this organization has of outstanding service to the a record University. They have assisted in the redecoration of the Pharmacy Woman's Lounge at Foster Hall; furnished a double room in the Woman's Dormitory on campus, now occupied by two pharmacy students; and in 1953 established a Pharmacy Scholarship to aid a deserving student. �8 UNIVERSITY NEWS AND CAMPUS BRIEFS ALUMNAE PLAN ACTIVITIES Highlightingthe new calendar of the University of Buffalo Alumnae Association, prepared by Genevieve Butler Repp, Edß '44, vice-president and program chairman, is the sixth annual luncheon and fashion show scheduled for March 12, 1955 at the Hotel Statler.

Chancellor Furnas said, "The Development Office will play a vital part in the planning and implementation of those parts of the long-range plan whioh deal with possible sources of support, and the steps necessary for obtaining it". Prior to his association with the University, Dr. Van Arsdale was assistant headmaster and head of the English department at the Park School of Buffalo. During World War II he served as an air-intelligence officer in the Navy in the Pacific theater during which time he was decorated for action against the enemy. He was recalled to active duty during the Korean War and served" as Assistant District Intelligence Officer for Air with the Third Naval District. �9 SCHOOL OF EDUCATION PLAYS HOST TO VISITING EDUCATORS FROM FOREIGN COUNTRIES by Mrs. Milton C. Albrecht Administrative Assistant to the University Planning Committee On September 19 the faculty of the School of Education and other members of the University staff welcomed 19 visiting educators from Japan, India, Ceylon, Egypt, Nigeria, Iran, Italy, Netherlands, Germany, Finland, Mexico and Brazil. These seven women and twelve men are in the United States as part of the International Teacher Education Program sponsored by the Department of State and administered by the U. S. Office of Education. These foreign educators are either administrators or teachers and all of them are people who hold responsible positions in their own countries. They will be in the United States for a six months' period, three of which are to be spent on the University of Buffalo campus. The program as outlined by the U. S. Office of Education stresses study and observation of the administration and organization of secondary schools and particularly asks that the educators be helped to a better understanding of American family and community life. To achieve the former objective, the School of Education has set up a program under the leadership of a University planning committee composed of Dr.L. O. Cummings, Chairman, Dr. Adelle Ijand and Dean Robert S. Fisk. Dr. Cummings is the co-ordinator for the entire program. A general seminar and two special seminars meet twice weekly. Educational classes and classes in which the visiting educators are especially interested, in the College of Arts and Sciences, are audited as their schedules will allow. This forms the academic backbone of the program. In addition there are visits to the local school systems where work in the special fields is observed. To supplement the work in education, trips are planned for the groupto see representative industries on the Niagara Frontier, some of the cultural institutions in the city and various offices of government. Such visits are correlated with the work in the seminars so that the inter-relation of our community and education is apparent. To gain further knowledge of American family and community life, the visiting educators are living in private homes near the University. Although they are paying guests many of them take pleasure in helping with the household chores and have become valued members of the family; participating in drives, dinners and parties to which the family goes. Most of the visiting educators have spoken before various service clubs, to church groups and in international study groups. They have attended concerts, plays, lectures, home movies showing various parts of the United States, and other forms of entertainment to which they have frequently been invited. Reciprocal Trade To think that these visitors are doing all the receiving is erroneous because this is definitely reciprocal trade in the finest sense. Daily, examples are coming to light which indicate that the people in our community are learning, tram their contact with these visitors, about the modes, customs, values and thinking in the various countries from which these educators come. Americans are led to question their own actions, policies, methods and ideas which leads to healthy evaluation. As one school administrator said, "The questions these people ask have made me re-examine our own principles of education." Those persons working most closely with the program are constantly aware of the value to them of having to analyze and explain American ways of doing things. Interpretation of the press, radio, television and of the customs which are so different in many instances help them to understand our own culture better. Tough Questions slang and idiomatic expressions are difficult to understand at first but the visiting educators are making many of the expressions their own. In one of the industrial plants visited, the manager spoke of a member of the company who had "started from scratch". Explain that easily. American What is a blind date ? Who lives in a funeral home? Why do busses stop at a railway crossing and open the door are typical questions. Some of the educators had never experienced a snowfall. It was very exciting for them and on a trip through central New York State the industrial plants and school visits took second place for a while to the miracle of the falling white stuff. The educators are impressed with the great interest people show in the education of their children. They exclaim at the signs on busses warning that "School is open, watch for children" ; they are surprised that so much time and effort is expended by people without children in the interests of better education. They fear that our large public schools are too standardized, that education becomes a mechanical process like our industrial plants. American children working after school and on weekends was another source of wonder to them. Likewise how hard people in this country generally work is a constant observation. We have so much, they say, and never seem to have time to enjoy what we have. Perhaps it's a point well taken. Of course our machines in the plants are a source of great interest. They are studied in detail and many pictures taken whenever the opportunity presents itself. Pictures of visual aids in teaching, of city government, industry and social affairs will be circulated in many countries. In fact the co-ordinator of the program is familiar with the query "One more?" Always another picture must be taken. Campus Benefits The enrichment of the University of Buffalo campus life is apparent from comments by students and faculty alike. The community has responded magnificently and has felt the impact of the diverse opinions and cultures. It is indeed a worthwhile experience we are all having with the visiting educators who will leave us on the 18th of December to move on to another community to complete their stay in this country. We hope they have gained much from the experience of living and studying with us on the campus and will remember the University of Buffalo long after the pennants on their baggage have been destroyed. �19000 YEARS OF EXPERIENCE HONORED BY DENTAL ALUMNI These dentists have a total of 900 years' experience.

ALDEN HONORED BY LEGAL PROFESSION AND CITY was the date of one of the most warm and touching tributes ever paid to a member of the legal and teaching professions, for on that day some seven hundred former students gathered in the Main Ballroom of Hotel Statler to pay tribute to their former professor and dean, enthusiasm of the gathering is a greater tribute than could be the words of any speaker. He asked Dr. Alden to "regard them as cumulative evidence of the esteem and warm affection of those of us who still like to be named among your boys and Carlos C. Alden. Local courts were adjourned to permit their representatives to observe "Carlos C. Alden Day", so proclaimed by Buffalo's mayor, Steven Pankow. The dean's "boys" rose as one to render a prolonged ovation as Dr. Alden was escorted to the place of honor by Alden Day chairman and toastmaster, Samuel Sapowitch, LLB '19. Principal speaker, Frank G. Raichle, Jr., LLB '19. stated that the size and Deputy Corporation Counsel John J. Naples, LLB '47, presented a scroll which conveyed the city's appreciation for the fifty years of devoted teaching of the law. Samuel Battaglia, LLB '27, president of the Erie County Bar Association, gave Dr. Alden a life membership certificate on behalf of the organization. November Ist, girls." Chancellor Clifford C. Furnas and Jacob D. Hyman, Dean of the Law School, described Dr. Alden as the greatest man in the teaching of law in this region, the latter expressing the hope that the school could continue in the tradition of Dr. Alden. War Medicine Course To Be Given At University Dr. Stanley W. Olsen, chairman of the Medical Education for National Defense Committee, recently announced that the University of Buffalo's Medical School is among five selected by the Secretary of Defense for training students in wartime disaster medicine. Speaking at the annual meeting of the Association of American Medical Colleges, Dr. Olsen said undergraduates will be taught to face medical problems arising* from mass disasters such as war, atomic explosions, floods, hurricanes and other emergencies. �DENTAL ALUMNI ELECT OFFICERS 1 School of Social Work To Move to Campus The headquarters of the School of Social Work will be transferred from Townsend Hall, Niagara Sq. to the North Main St. campus about January Ist. The new location of offices and classes of the school will be Macdonald Hall. Dean Niles Carpenter, in making the announcement, indicated that some evening classes for employed social workers will, however, not be transferred. Brandeis Gridders Bring Own Trophy Some enterprising member of the Brandeis University football squad carried, or otherwise smuggled, a white plank from Boston, Mass, to Buffalo, N. Y. by air. Painted on that 6V2" x 30" piece of wood were the following words: "The Cottages Brandeis Women's Dormitories 9 Ridgewood Terrace." Following the Judges' arrival in Buffalo, the sign went into hiding and finallyturned up right on the locker room door of the football Bulls in Civic Stadium. That would have brought a smile to the lips of any Buffalo fan, yet not after a 52-20 loss to the Brandeis lads. So it was that the Bulls "took a burn" and decided that the purloined sign should become as famous as the Old Oaken Bucket or the Little Brown Jug. There is just one difference. This trophy goes to the loser. The "Buffalo-Brandeis Plank", as it has come to be known, is being cleaned up a bit and willrepose in the Buffalo trophy case until next season. Let's hope it is returned with interest. .. Clifford A.

ROTC Cadets Get Special Flight Training Thirty cadets of the University's ROTC unit recently flew to Vance Air Force Base in Enid Oklahoma to observe academic and drill routine of pilot education. The cadets made the journey in two C-47 transport planes piloted by Capt. Raymond H. Vavrinek and Capt. John W. Bohrer, assistant professors of air science and tactics at the University. On the return journey, the cadets received practical work in plotting the course of aircraft by doing the navigator's jobaboard the two planes enroute to Niagara Falls Air Force Base. — — DOCTOR, FOR YOUR APPOINTMENT BOOK! The Alumni Association of the Medical School has set its annual Spring Clinical Day for Saturday, March 26, 1955, at Hotel Statler, Buffalo. If your graduation year appears in this list, you've got a swell reunion coming up, so make a special note that you'll have no office hours that date. Reunions for the classes of '85. *90, '95, '00, '05, '10, '15, '20, '25, '30, '35, '40, '45, and '50 will be held that night. �12 Eikenmen: "AWAY AND RUNNING" For the first time since Mai Eiken took over the head coaching berth for the University's basketball forces, he finds himself three weeks ahead of the normal practice schedule at the end of the first week of drills. In case that sounds confusing, it is. In former years at least twenty to thirty men turned out for drills and it took at least two weeks to evaluate the material and then choose the final twelve or fifteen squad members. On November Ist, exactly eighteen men showed up for drills, ten of them lettermen. Currently beginning his ninth year Eiken has yet to experience a losing campaign, having compiled a record of 108 wins against 63 defeats in the past eight seasons. at the reins, As casual observers of the preseason drills in Clark Gym, we'd say the Eikenmen will run with the best of the competition from start to finish. The bench will be strong with several potent combinations for substitution. Defensive drills have the coach smiling and his one comment is, "While I'm pleased with what has been shown so far, there is plenty of room for improvement, especially in the department of putting the ball through the hoop .. one department where all styles will be employed." Speaking of scoring, the team will again be led by Jumpin' Jim Home who will be playing his fourth and final year of varsity ball. He already has re-written all the scoring records with the exception of Hal Kuhn's single season total of 485 points. Last season Jim just missed that record with 475 points. In his three previous campaigns. Jimhas dumped in a total of 1285 points, more than any eager in University history. The squad will list three seniors, eight juniors, and two sophomores. Included will be big Bill Annable at 63" and 218 pounds, who has just returned to the varsity after four years of service to Uncle Sam. He is a junior. Next come senior standouts such as Dan Kwiatek at 63" and Ed Anderson, a newcomer, at 6'o". The set-shot ability of the latter man will be a welcome addition to the '54 Bulls. Junior players, all from last year's squad which posted a 15-8 record include rough and speedy Ernie Benoit, Karl Englert, Kurt Lang, speedster Dave Levitt, huge Len Saltman, mammoth Steve Sklar, and Rog Urban. Listed in the sophomore class are two men from Matt Mazza's classy crew of '54 which won fifteen and lost two. They are Joe Babiniski who stands 63" and Chuck Daniels at 59". So here is an experienced squad, familiar with the fundamentals and style of Eiken. What does all this mean? We'll rush out on the proverbial limb and say it means a winning seasonas well as new records by Jim Home who can now be utilized even more for scoring rather than covering the boards. There are too many men for the opposition to watch whereas, in the past, they have concentrated on Home. The Bulls will run, run, run, with scoring expected from all. .

WITH A PURPOSE FRATERNITY HAZING University of Buffalo students recently set a shining example for Buffalo citizens in the fall cleanup. As part of campus Help Week, the Inter Fraternity Council assigned six freshmen to a modern hazing session doing some worthwhile work instead of old-fashioned non- — sense. Armed with rakes and assisted by a crew from the maintenance building, the boys made an area behind Schoellkopf and Cooke dormitories look as spick and span as a golf green awaiting a national championship.

Doll, an All-High selection at Seneca Vocational High School, has shown to advantage as a consistent ground gainer and vicious line backer. In 1952 the winless Bulls of the gridiron wars came to their final game with seven straight losses and one game remaining. That final game ended with the Bulls on the high side of a 12-6 count and the season record stood at 1-7. Both TD's in that stunning upset were scored on passes snagged by star end Charles A. "Charlie" O'Brien, Edß's4, who outran defensive halfback Gene Thalheimer of St. Lawrence. On Saturday night, November 6th of this season, a substitute end by the name of Jim Renaldo entered the game for Buffalo. At defensive position for the St. Lawrence Larries was Mr. Thalheimer, now a senior and the outstanding workhorse of the Northcountry team. Then, with Bill Crowley heaving from Febel's spread formation, Jim Renaldo got behind Thalheimer to snag a twenty-nine yard aerial and dash the remaining fourteen yards to score. It was a picture play all the way and, incidentally, the same play that had spelled disaster for the Larries two years earlier. Thus, Buffalo gained the initiative to go on to a 13-6 win. their first of the season after six straight defeats. It was the seventh loss for St. Lawrence in a seven-game season. Buffalo's twenty-eight man squad, although defeated in the first six games, has not lost the will to win or the old college spirit. Each game was bitterly contested right down to the wire with the drive displayed bringing countless comments from the spectators. The opener was dropped at Cortland State teachers, 20-6. Then came the first home game with Brockport State, the Bulls losing 19-6. On the road again for the Hobart contest, the Bulls were smothered, 45-0. Homecoming produced a 26-0 loss to powerful Lafayette. Western Reserve, hitting their stride after a dismal start also ruined the Bulls pass defense record, finest in the East, with five TD pitches to win 34-7. Undefeated Alfred took the Bulls to task with a hard fought 25-0 count in Civic Stadium. In each defeat, the Bulls finished strong, looking brilliant from time to time, especially in the aerial department from the spread formations. St. Lawrence had astounded writers of the area by holding powerhouse Alfred to a 7-6 win and playing undefeated Hobart to a 6-6 standstill for fifty-five minutes, only to lose 20-6. Perhaps Buffalo has found that certain victory formula in the upset of eighteen-point favorite, St. Lawrence. That remains to be seen in the final two encounters with Brandeis at home on November 13th and R.P.I. at Troy on November 20th. One thing is certain. They have equalled the records of 1952 and 1953, when the gridiron Bulls won one game in each of the two seasons. In the final game of the 1953 season, the Bulls pounded Ohio Northern University's men by the score of 20-0 in the last game of the season to throw the pre-game predictions to the winds. Tranchell Appointed Admissions Counselor Patrolling a University Beat . .. William J. Tranchell, BA '54, long known on campus as the studying police patrolman, was appointed, last month, to the position of Admissions Counselor by Jack Deeringer, EdM '48, EdD '53, Dean of Students. Mr. Tranchell majored in History and Government while holding the duties of full-time patrolman on the Buffalo Police force, covering the night beats of the University and North Buffalo sections. Bill is married and the father of two children. Most classmates will remember him as the jovial photographer on the Spectrum staff, officer of the photography club, Alumni Bulletin photographer, and ardent naval reservist responsible for aerial photography at the Niagara Falls Naval Air Station. 1924 Law Class Holds Reunion Dinner The 30th anniversary LATE REPORT: The Bulls have closed their season with a 2-7 record, having lost to powerhouse Brandeis 52-20, as well as having roared from a 19-7 deficit to overcome the Engineers of R.P.I. to the tune of 20-19 in the season's top thriller at Troy. This makes the tenth consecutive season that the Bulls have closed with a victory. 13 Class of the of the 1924 University's Law School was celebrated at a reunion dinner held recently in Buffalo.

MEMBER OF THE AMERICAN ALUMNI COUNCIL PLEASE NOTIFY US OF CHANGE OF ADDRESS �3 Dr. Furnas Inaugurated as University's Ninth Chancellor The ninth Chancellor in the University's 109-year history was inaugurated Friday evening, January 7th, in a colorful ceremony which was the climax of a two-day program of events bringing together civic leaders, the alumni, and the academic community. Dr. Clifford Cook Furnas accepted the seal of the University and its charter, enacted by the State Legislature in 1846, from Seymour H. Knox, Chairman of the University Council. An audience of nearly 3000 listened as Mr. Knox proclaimed: "I now declare you to be the dulyinducted Chancellor of the University of Buffalo, invested with all the privileges, charged with all the authority and duties of that high office." The impressive two-hour program opened with a colorful academic procession of the University faculty, and Council members, and 250 official delegates of universities, colleges, and learned societies. Included among the delegates were fourteen college presidents. After the invocation, greetings were extended to the incoming Chancellor by representatives from the faculty, the alumni, the students, the community, the State, the U. S. Government, and from universities of other countries. A Panorama The greetings from the alumni were extended by Burt G. Weber, LLB'I9, president of the General Alumni Board, who pledged to the new Chancellor the continuing interest and participation of the graduates in the University and its activities. In his address during the ceremony, Dr. Arthur S. Adams, President of the American Council on Education, congratulated the University on having secured for Chancellor, "a man of insight, imagination and strength". Dr. Adams went on to say that "Dr. Furnas' outstanding attribute is courage". He also described him as "one who always takes the positive side and the constructive course." In his own inauguration address, Dr. Furnas stressed the tremendous task facing the University of Buffalo, together with other institutions of higher learning throughout the United States, during the next twenty years. He noted that, "Higher education has changed from being a luxury to a national and individual necessity for a substantial proportion of the population", and went on to point out that the urban university will be of increasing importance in this expanding educational matrix. General Alumni Luncheon Among the featured events of the program leading up to the inaugura- of the Third Annual Alumni Luncheon tion ceremony was the Third Annual Alumni Luncheon held in Clark Memorial Gymnasium on Friday, January 7th. More than 600 alumni, faculty, and friends of the University gathered to hear Roy E. Larsen, President of Time, Inc., and Chairman of the National Citizens Commission for the Public Schools, praise the University for the partnership it had achieved with the community and for the University's development of the tutorial system, anticipatory examinations, and modern literature collections. Burt G. Weber, LLB'I9, president of the General Alumni Board, was chairman and Mearl D. Pritchard, PhG'2l, president-elect of the Board, served as toastmaster. Mr. Larsen was introduced to the assembled guests by Mr. Edward H. Butler, editor and publisher of the Buffalo Evening News. It. was also on this occasion that the University honored thirteen alumni and citizens with citations for outstanding service. Civic Dinner More than 800 people gathered at the Civic Dinner held on Thursday evening, January 6th, to pay honor to the incoming Chancellor and to hear The Honorable Harold E. Talbott, Secretary of the Air Force, emphasize (Continued on Page 11, Col. 1) Held in Connection With the Inauguration �4 What Is The Task ? The Inaugural Address of Chancellor C. C. Furnas In the United States there are almost 1800 institutions of higher learning, each of which has a chief executive officer under the title of chancellor or president. The record shows that the average period of service of such executive heads at any one institution is only four and one-half years. Simple division indicates that there must be about 400 installations of presidents or chancellors in the realms of higher education in America, every year. Nearly all of these events are embellished with an inaugural address by the incumbent. On the average, then, there is more than one such address per day. With all that flow of words, certainly almost everything of importance on the subject of the progress and problems of higher education must have been said at least once. It would appear that there would be but little justification for attempting to add anything to the record. But now that I am here and have the opportunity I, like the hundreds of others, can hardly resist the temptation to say a few words about some items that are deemed to be significant for this particular time and place. In myfirst four delightful and busy months as Chancellor of the University of Buffalo, profound considerations of the basic problems do not seem to have constituted the backbone of the agenda items crying for a place on my calendar. Rather the natural flow has been directed toward such items as a less-than-completelysuccessful football season, shortage of parking space, crowded classrooms, and the perennial "few words of welcome" to visiting groups. Through it all, of course, one must follow an adequately devious path to avoid treading on those two precious species of fauna the sleeping dog and the sacred cow. — But these activities are recognized as being merely the initiation ceremonies. I have found my colleagues eager and willing to help me delve into the analysis and the attempted solutions of the more basic problems. We have discussed the future program of the University at considerable length. The title of this address is "What Is The Task?". I am promising no solutions—only an analysis of the problems which lie before us. What Are We To Do? Trying Unless one is flying completely blind and desperately, he has some heading in mind and some goal to be reached. So the first point of an analysis is to state our goal, or, expressed another way, in the form of a question—what are we trying to do? This would seem to be a simple question which would lead to a straightforward and simple answer—but such is not the case. In academic circles themselves, in business and industry, in the world at large, you will find almost as many Copies of Speeches Available to Alumni Reprints of the speeches of Chancellor Clifford C. Furnas, The Honorable Harold E. Talbott, Secretary of the Air Force, and Roy E. Larsen, President of Time, Inc., made during the two-day inauguration program of Chancellor Furnas are available for distribution on request.

At least this appears to be the situation when you start getting down to details. Insofar as any generalities are safe, however, there are some basic principles which few will dispute—somewhat as follows: A modern university should carry on three activities: first, provide good instruction for the coming generation; second, contribute to human knowledge through research; and third, perform certain appropriate public services. From the individual student's point of view, the university should provide the means and the environment for learning to live as well as learning to make a living. It is not my intention to air my own opinions on the techniques and methods best suited to accomplish all these wonderful things. Rather I wish to dwell on some very important environmental factors which must be understood before we can properly delineate our task. The New Environment There are certain factors of the naand international environment which have a major bearing on the problem. Half a century ago, the automobile was a luxury more or less enjoyed by only a few. By mid-century it has become a true essential for the average American, in the most practical sense. During this same half-century higher education has gone through very much the same cycle, until it is now truly essential for a substantial segment of the American population. The two phenomena are very closely related. Both are the result and the logical conclusion of the Industrial Revolution, which is just now beginning to come of age. This eventual trend of events with its accompanying more or less painful social changes, was inevitable as soon as James Watt took out the first patent on an improved steam engine, in the year 1769. Although much of very great significance had happened in science and invention before Watt, it was the practical steam engine which really opened up a route to what we now think of as a scientific and industrial society. Since Watt, the parade of scientists and inventors has become even larger. You may recognize the tional �names and the works of a few—such as Lavoisier, Whitney, Faraday, Mendelyeev, Pasteur, Darwin, Mendel, Maxwell, Edison, Becquerel, Curie, Planck, Einstein, the Wright brothers, Heisenberg, Fleming, Hahn, Strassmann, Fermi. The profound changes which these men and women of the western world have wrought on the structure of civilization and the mechanics of living, have also led to changes in educational needs, of truly major import. Not long ago, only the three professions of theology, law and medicine required college degrees. Now all the professions and a great many segments of industry, business and agriculture require, ask for, and get a large proportion of the university graduates. As compared to the good old days life has become very complicated, indeed. Dramatic as they may be, however, these industrial and educational revolutions are only pieces of the mosaic of a still greater theme of our present civilization, which is distinctly different from any that has gone before. Perhaps the English historian Toynbee has best expressed the nature of the trend. Toynbee would have it that three hundred years from now the twentieth century will not be remembered primarily for world wars or the automobile, the airplane, antibiotics, or even nuclear energy, but rather for "having been the first age since the dawn of civilization, some five or six thousand years back, in which people dared to think it practicable to make the benefits of civilization available to the whole human race." Evidence of this pattern of thinking and action is seen in the slogans about the century of the common man and the welfare state, and in the trend toward legislation for social betterment, not only in the United States but throughout most of the world. The common man, undeniably and apparently irresistably, is bent on improving his lot. The something new that has been added to make this century of the common man possible is scientific knowledge coupled with mass production broadly interpreted. makes warfare more and more terrible. The critics say we adore good plumbing and neglect fine thinking. Faithful servants are no longer obtainable—we have to rely on unreliable household gadgets to handle the onerous chores of living. You're not even able to hire a baby sitter until you install a television set for her amusement. Every factory worker must have an automobile to ride around in on Sunday. Obviously he should stay at home as his grandfather did. We devised the airplanes and atomic bombs which made World War II fantastically destructive and cruel, and have brought up the prospects of a possible World War HE which would be catastrophic beyond belief. Are we really making progress? At this juncture one might argue endlessly and fruitlessly on the fine points of human values, so I will express my own view, quickly and briefly. In my opinion, over the long stretch of the last two centuries, there has been enormous moral as well as physical progress. We now recognize the rights and inherent dignity of all human beings far more than we ever have before. We now almost universally abhor the thought of war, as compared to 1898 when "What this country needs is a good war" was an acceptable national slogan. We thoroughly and bitterly condemn Hitler's Germany and Stalin's Russia rather than merely condoning them as we would have a couple of centuries ago. In the long historical view these men of destruction will be reduced to proper size and appear as minor aberrations in the course of steady moral progress. Our billions of dollars of aid to foreign lands is truly for the good of those lands as well as for — Is It Progress? Almost everyone gives lip service to the desirability of this trend of making the benefits of civilization available to all, but there are many who do not like the immediate results. It has become fashionable to sneer at our "progress", because the word is usually used to denote only material progress, and often of a kind that .. Dr. Arthur S. Adams a man of strength "Furnas 5 our own enlightened self-interest. The United Nations is much less effective than we would like, but for the first time in history we do have a brothers-keeper organization which has some chance of being successful. These and many other developments are, I submit, progress—and of a kind which outweighs and over-rides the minor irritations which arise from the mechanical adjustments to a new type of living. But what, you may ask, does all this have to do with higher education? It has almost everything to do with it. Our task is to teach and add to new knowledge in such a way that the moral and physical gains for the individual and for the world community will continue. As educators we have the prime responsibility of making a modern scientific society truly operative rather than letting it become an era in which we only succeed in outsmarting ourselves as a dozen earlier civilizations have done. A Few Numbers The sheer weight of numbers of college and univei-sity graduates required to make the modern society effective is unprecedented and, from one point of view, appalling. Unfortunately, while we are feeling our way we must be prepared to protect ourselves against possible military aggression. Hence, one of the grimmer aspects of the educational need lies in the military field. Supersonic aircraft, guided missiles, electronic brains, and nuclear weapons, in their use as well as in their development, call for a level of scientific achievement and technological skill which can not possibly be supplied by the old apprenticeship and empirical approach. When one contemplates that a moderate-sized hydrogen bomb, which can be carried by one aircraft, delivers about twenty times the explosive power of all of the bombs dropped by the tens of thousands of airplanes of both the American and British airforces during the six years of World War n, he gets a little comprehension of how much the world has changed and how seriously the situation may have been altered in ten short years. It is no secret that Russia alone is now turning out about twice as many college graduates in science and engineering as the United States. If civilization follows the course we should like to see, those talents would be turned entirely to peaceful benefits, but they are, at the present time, almost certainly being pointed in large degree to the preparation for a possible World War lll—hence national sur- �6 vival may very well be at stake, and the meeting of the problem of supplying at least equal talents must fall squarely on the shoulders of American colleges and universities. In the United States by 1970 the college age population will increase by approximately 709£ over that of 1954. This datum is not a matter of speculation. The youngsters are with us now—living, eating, breathing— and a large proportion of them are already in the elementary and secondary schools. The rate of survival can be predicted with a high degree of accuracy. Being of college age, of course, does not necessarily mean that they will attend, but past trends in secondary education give some key to the probable course of events. Not long ago a high school education was the exception rather than the rule. Now it is almost universal. In the last 75 years the population of the United States has about tripled but the number of people in high school has increased at least sixty-fold. Nearly universal college education, for those who have the mental qualifications, is only a logical extension of this trend and is, perhaps, inevitable. In 1900, 240,000 people—four percent of those of college age in the United States attended institutions of higher education. In 1950 the number attending had increased to 2,400,----000. The proportion attending had be- — come almost thirty percent—a sevenand-one-half-fold increase. The trend is still upward and there is no indication of a cessation or any reversal, simply because higher education has changed from being a luxury to a national and individual necessity for a substantial proportion of the population. The Role of the Urban University In this expanding educational matrix it is almost certain that the urban university will be of increasing importance. It may well be the sword for the Gordian knot. A larger proportion of people live in cities than ever before. With slowly rising real incomes a substantial percentage of parents can spend a modest amount on a college education for their children. But for the foreseeable future, the majority will not have the means to send them to distant, expensive universities—particularly in view of the heavy tax structure. Further, the college student often has better opportunities for self-help in his own community than he has elsewhere, particularly if his educational schedule is fairly flexible. The urban university is becoming the university of the middle class, and the middle class is beginning to encompass all of America. There are those who smugly decry this trend, but that doesn't stop it. The Local Scene Turning from the national to the local scene: in the Niagara Frontier, which is the University of Buffalo's natural reservoir, those who will be applying for college or university admittance in this region will be, on a conservative estimate, at least 100% greater by 1970 than it is today. These numbers will include a certain proportion who will come to us from outside the immediate region, which is certainly all to the good. Nothing can be quite as cloying as provincialism, and the cross-fertilization of ideas and concepts which is achieved by living and working with persons from other regions is one of the most important aspects of higher education. This is the prime reason why it is extremely desirable to enlarge the dormitory program on the campus. In the second major function of a university-—research—there is a great deal still to be accomplished. Though we do some very substantial and outstanding research in some fields, particularly in medicine, we are by no means yet pulling our own weight in the boat of contribution to new knowledge. In some disciplines we are doing almost nothing at all. Very substantial strides must be made soon if we are to maintain our position as a true university. In general, in the items of public service our performance is somewhat better than it is in research. For two generations the regional professions of medicine and law have been manned largely by local graduates. Many have achieved the highest ranks in national as well as local performance, and thus contributed in a major way to public service. A similar pattern, closely linked to the University, is rapidly developing in industry, business and the arts. Regional industry and civic organizations as well as the professions receive major aid and stimulation, directly and indirectly, from the University. This level of performance must be at least maintained and, preferably, expanded. What Will Be Required? Chairman Knox Installs Dr. Furnas as Chancellor In common with every other college and university we face some serious physical needs. The listing of the requirements of any one institution is probably a fairly typical cross-section of the national picture. If someone could hand us a task assignment sheet with definite instructions upon it, it would probably say that our stewardship on the Niagara Frontier requires that we shall do our best for the foreseeable future to meet the educational needs of all of those who are ade- �7 quately qualified and who come to us. By the year 1970 at our own University this will probably mean about double our present enrollment of 10,000. Staff The first requirement in meeting this task will be to obtain the services of a sufficient number of highly- qualified men and women for instruction and research. Our best estimate to date is that in order to take care of the additional load there must be approximately 75% increase in the teaching and administrative staff. The fact that it will not take double the people to handle double the enrollment does not imply that the quality of the instruction will suffer. I believe that it can be improved with this number. By carefully evaluatingneeds and methods and improving physical equipment and techniques, I think it is entirely feasible to have greater accomplishment with somewhat fewer numbers. This 75% increase in staff, however, does not include the need for expanded research activities and public service. It is hardly possible at this time to make any predictions as to how much those activities can and should be expanded, but they certainly should move forward, for this is the area of most direct and immediate benefit to the community. Buildings The second obvious need is for floor space and equipment—classrooms, laboratories and dormitories. The University of Buffalo is in a more fortunate circumstance than many in that it does not, for the time being, need any additional real estate. But the available physical facilities are about as nearly saturated as it is possible to be. Some classes are almost literally hanging out of the windows. So despite whatever increases may be made in efficiency of scheduling and improvement of physical arrangement it is almost inevitable that double the number of students by 1970 will require about double the amount of physical facilities. Dollars These simply-stated needs may now roughly translated into dollars for the target date of 1970. Though the instructional and administrative staff need only increase by about 75%, we happen to be in the somewhat unfortunate circumstance that the salary scale in effect at present is on the low side, as compared to the national picture. In order Lo attract and maintain be Dr. Furnas: "Business and industry face a challenge". an adequate faculty in the forthcoming keen competition, it is going to be necessary to improve some of the salary structure quite substantially. Though there are still a few dedicated scholars in the world who will teach for the love of it on a mere sustaining pittance, their number is not now and never has been very large. Substituting academic recognition, honors, and treasures in heaven for an adequate paycheck is simply not a realistic way to approach the job. I will gofurther and say that it is impossible. Because of these increased salary needs, by the year 1970 for the instructional purposes alone, our operating budget will need to be about doubled—that is, from about 5 million to about 10 million dollars per year. This is on the assumption that there is no further inflationary trend. If inflation is still with us, and it still very well may be, then an additional increment will be needed. A rough estimate may be made of the probable cost of handling the indicated doubling of the floor space. Without going into the details it can be said that it would appear that the cost for the minimum needs will be of the order of 15 million dollars, at the present cost of construction. These figures for increased operating budget and building costs certainly represent a difficult chore but by no means an impossible one. I am not even sure that it is a discouraging one, if everyone realizes the importance and necessity of the work. What Are the Sources of Support? Before analyzing the possible sources of support I would like to outline some basic considerations. I—Veryl—Very broadly defined, all of the real income in our national economy is derived from industry and agriculture. All other activities are supported by these two. In our present social structure, agriculture, while it contributes substantially to the tax receipts, is the recipient of various direct and indirect forms of aid, and so is not a fruitful source for support of additional things outside its own bailiwick. In effect, then, this throws the entire burden for the additional educational load directly or indirectly upon industry— and it is quite a burden. 2—l suggest that we —by this I mean all we Americans—are still approaching the mid-twentieth century problem of financing private colleges and universities with a nineteenth century psychology—on the basis of charity. Though giving can be a beautiful and wonderful experience, though biblically itranks equally with faith and hope as a virtue, though America has been and still is the "givingest" nation on earth; charity even American charity falls far short of being adequate for the task. — — Planting For the Future In recent years some of the more far-seeing lumber companies have established the policy of planting seedlings for the future at least fifty years in the future. This practice has — �8 established as a legitimate business expense within the framework of the existing tax legislation and the mores of the stockholders. The analogy to the industrial support of education is. I believe, clear. If the support of small trees is a legitimate business expense, is not the fostering of education of young men and women who will in the near future be the principals in business and industry even more legitimate and desirable? To activate this analogy will require but little change in the present legal pattern, but it will call for a substantial shift in American business psychology. Unless such a change is forthcoming, it is my belief that private colleges and universities cannot long continue to play a vital role in American education. It is true that within the last few years industry is awakening to its new responsibility, as witnessed by such magnificent activities as the National Fund for Medical Education and the Council for Financial Aid to Higher Education. The aid from these funds has been very substantial and is greatly appreciated, but it is still primarily on the basis of charity and is simply a long way from being enough for the years ahead. The Burden of Industry My remarks above might be interpreted as an indication of ingratitude. Certainly such is not my intention and I do not believe that I am lacking in gratitude. I am merely trying to be realistic. I feel that I am quite cognizant of the increasing burden from all directions upon industry. Demands for direct or indirect support of all manner of activities come on its doorstep because there is simply no other place to put them. Many, if not most, of these burdens are translated into the form of taxes. No matter what the political party in power, we find increasing socialistic trends toward the welfare state. I do not know whether this will eventually solve the unsolved riddle or social injustice, but there is no question that the trend is there and that it takes tax money. Because of the excellent work of the doctors, the nutritionists and the hygienists of the last century, we have an increasing been elderly people—those who beyond the productive age —who mustbe taken care of by either their own accumulations or by other means. In 1900 the proportion of the population that was over 65 was 4.3 %. By 1952 this proportion had almost doubled to 8.4%. By 1960 it will be On top of this is the very heavy burden of expenditure for national defense, which apparently will be with us for a long time. In 1929 this amounted to L3% of the gross national product, in 1943 it amounted to 14.2% —a ten-fold increase and I consider that for the foreseeable future we will be fortunate if we can hold it down to this percentage. And now comes the inescapable demand for more and more education for our rapidly expanding new generation. These are discouraging data and might seem to indicate that industry could not possibly give further support to education. However, the demands are more than balanced by the trend toward increasing productivity, the steady growth toward more and more real wealth. Since 1910 the growth in productivity of the nation has averaged about 3% per year. Since 1929 the real output per capita of goods and services has increased by almost three-fifths, and the trend is still upward. Since 1929 the disposable personal income (the amount that the average individual has to spend for goods and services) in terms of dollars of constant buying power, has increased by almost 45y. The trend can be and still is upward and there is no reason why it should fall off in the foreseeable future, for we do have the science and technology to produce more and more real income. In general, then, although the trends of demands may be somewhat frightening, the potential for meeting them is ever increasing and the solution can be found if there is a national will to do it. The Niagara Frontier, being the eleventh community in the nation in volume of industrial production, is more happily situated than many to meet the needs. The wealth of Erie and Niagara counties approaches the $10 billion mark. The annual income — is about $2V2 billion. Sixteen of these 48 United States have less annual income than does the Niagara Frontier. Why Private Institutions? The foregoing statements and contentions obviously imply that it is a national necessity to have private colleges and universities, in addition to those which are publicly supported through taxes. Perhaps such an attitude requires some justification. I firmly believe that this thesis is true, and that American experience amply bears it out. Our social as well as our industrial accomplishments have never been matched at any other place in the world at any time. Our educational pattern has not been the sole reason for this but it has been a very substantial and necessary factor. This pattern we have followed is a wellbalanced, complementary duality and not a schizophrenia. It is a structure of maximum strength and effectiveness. Be it emphasized and underlined that, barring some unforeseen economic and sociological revolution, the rising demand for higher education will be met by one means or another. The public pressure for it is not to be denied. The only question to be decided is the route. Shall it be the single taxpayer's lane or the dual highway of private as well as public suppoi't? We will probably be able to discern the trend of the national answer within the next few years. My firm conviction is that if we are wise, as a nation we will continue along the double highway. Other Sources of Support By now I have probably belabored the increasing responsibility of industry quite adequately. Let us then turn to the other sources of support. Even though all real income may, in the last analysis, be in the lap of industry and agriculture, it is certainly true number of have lived 9.2%.

Douglas Howard, Vice-President, Niagara Share Corporation. Symposium. From �that all of the immediate channels are by no means the direct industrial dollar. The first and most evident source of support is the tuition paid by the students themselves. Even the tax-supported institutions lean heavily on this. The national average of operating income from tuition in tax-supported colleges and universities in 1950 was almost 30%. In that same year over two-thirds of the income for private colleges and universities came from tuition. As compared to these data of the national averages, the tuition and student fees at the University of Buffalo supply about 85% of the operating income. Locally at any rate, the students and their parents are bearing the brunt of the burden of direct operating costs. This is selfhelp in the finest American tradition, but perhaps it can be carried too far. Until half a century ago the endowment fund was the firm foundation for the continuing effectiveness of most of the private institutions. Except in a very few cases, such as the most happily situated eastern universities, it seems that major reliance can no longer be placed upon income from endowments. Allow me to hasten to add, however, that endowment possibilities will certainly not be overlooked. When available they are a great help and their quest will be continuously pursued with ample vigor. Then there are the continuing campaigns of annual giving among alumni, regional supporters and friends. These are sources of increasing importance, particularly when they provide unrestricted funds for the general use of the institution, and are becoming more prominent in tax-supported as well as private universities. Various financial foundations have long been of great importance in higher education, especially in the research field. The number of them is increasing, as is also the total amount of funds available in this reservoir. They, however, are not by any means increasing as rapidly as the need and, useful as they are, they are only a drop in the bucket in meeting the total bill. There is another area in which I feel that universities can constructively meet their problems better than they have in the past—in contract activities for research and public services. Though many universities carry on research on a contract basis, for the government and for industry, in only a small percent of the cases do thereimbursements actually cover the able when—and not until—education re-attains its proper relative importance in the national mind. 9 The Eternal Virtues Air Secy Talbott & Gen. Deichelmann complete costs of doing the work. Some institutions are approaching bankruptcy because they are so pros- perous in research contracts which do not carry adequate overhead charges. In my opinion this is shortsighted and poorbusiness. To the best of myknowledge there is not a single agency of the federal government which will allow the full and realistic overhead charges on a university type of contract. In effect then, certain increments of student fees or endowment funds or annual gifts are helping to subsidize the various government agencies. This I contend is unwise and not in the public interest and could be corrected if most of the universities of the country were sufficiently resolute about it. To a somewhat lesser degree this practice of not charging adequately for the wares holds even on industrial contracts which are held by universities. As research and other services increase in importance —as they will it seems to me that this simple device of making adequate charges will help very materially in appropriately spreading the burden. Please pardon me for dwelling overly long on these grubby and mundane details of means of support. Because of their number and variety, I had hoped to inject a small note of optimism. If there is a national and regional will, there are many national and regional ways in which the problem of support can be met. Fifty years ago one dollar out of two available in public funds was spent on education. Today the proportion has dropped to one out of six. Though much more is being spent on education than ever before, it has been crowded from its former relatively high position by everything from national defense to good roads, human rehabilitation and flood control dams. These are all very important but so is education—more important than ever. The problems of support will be solv- — Thus far my discourse may have had the flavor of being too pragmatic and too loaded with prickly and uninteresting data. What of a university's stewardship of those two sacred entities: academic freedom and individuality? Are they in danger? I believe that both are very much in danger, but not from the enemies which most people visualize. Demagogues (which most academicians fear above all others) have inflicted some bloody surface wounds in America, but none as yet have been really serious. The skirmishes will continue and further damage undoubtedly will be done, but I see no rising trend of academic suppression which is truly hazardous. The present situation keeps the American academic world on guard to protect its traditional freedom and the right of a person to be an individual. This may have a certain amount of merit. There might even be something to the David Harum philosophy that a moderate number of fleas is good for a dog—it prevents complacency. Rather, I see the hazard to lie in the very pattern and systems of education which we are apparently being forced to develop. One may shudder at the thought that colleges and universities are taking on the structure of a mass production operation, but I believe it would be ostrich-like to ignore the fact that there is such a trend. There is but little place for freedom of thought or of action or for the development and growth of individuality on an automobile assembly line, but if we are to have and to use over fifty million cars in this country, the automobile assembly line is an essential. When we have ten million youth in the colleges and universities, it will be easy to fall into the mass production techniques and, unwittingly, the virtues of academic freedom and individuality may suffer some real defeats. A creeping paralysis rather than direct frontal attacks is the enemy which I fear most. A certain degree of applicability is found in a quotation from a recent book "Faith and Freedom", by Barbara Ward: "The West will prove more vulnerable than any other society if it abandons the pursuit of visions and ideals, for, more than any other community, it is the product (Continued on Page 12, Col. 2) �I.

Designed to enlist the support of all dental alumni of the University and of other members of the dental profession in the Western New York region the Fund was announced at a meeting of the teams of workers at the University in Butler Auditorium of Capen Hall on Tuesday evening, February Ist. Edward F. Mimmack, DDS'2I, Chairmanof the Executive Committee of the Fund, announced that the dental profession locally has initiated this annual supporting fund in an effort to assist the University in expanding its post graduate programs for dentists, in expanding its faculty and full time teachers in the Dental School, in increasing the number of students admitted each year, in expanding research, and in preserving independent dental education. Chairman Mimmack pointed out that the University's School of Dentistry now has excellent teaching and physical facilities, and superb clinical facilities in its new home in Capen Hall on the campus. However, this Fund will seek to provide the means for assisting in the improvement of the educational program. To do this, at least $100 pledged annually will be sought from each dentist by the workers in the Fund. At the meeting initiating the Fund on February Ist, Chancellor Clifford C. Furnas and Leon J. Gauchat, DDS '19, Dean of the School of Dentistry, also addressed the 175 dentists, who comprise the teams of workers, on the importance of retaining independent dental education and of improving the overall program of dental education in the University's School of Den- tistry. Other members of the Executive Committee, in addition to Chairman Mimmack, DDS'24; are: Peter L. Battista, Gauchat; Raymond M. Dean Gibbons, Sr., DDS'I6; Anthony S. Gugino, DDS'22; A. C. Pawlowski, DDS'IS; Henry Spiller, DDS'3S; Abraham W. Swados, DDS'IS; Irwin L. Terry, DDS'36; Sheridan C. Waite, DDS'IB; DDS'27. and Albert A. Zirnheld, Chancellor's Address (Continuedfrom Page 7) not of geographical and racial forces but of the molding power of the human spirit." Certainly in our plans for the future we must avoid becoming so engrossed in the problems of bricks and mortar, technical qualifications of teachers, and the details of curricula to meet the immediate needs, that we lose sight of these eternal virtues which have been the ultimate strength of higher education for at least two thousand years. If we fail to grasp and hold to these, we do so at our national peril. In our social pattern the great leaders, the doers, the builders of the future come from the environment of academic freedom and recognition of the dignity of the individual. How can we maintain this environment in a situation where the mere mass of the operation will tend to make all patterns fit pre-designed molds ? Can we maintain a place for and give ample opportunity for the growth of the unusually talented and energetic individuals ? When there are so many can we make a proper place for the few? I cannot answer these questions—l can only ask them. But we must continually search for the answers. I am sure that adequate answers will lead to an educational structure which places substantial emphasis on the humanities and the arts. May I also be so bold as to suggest that, for various reasons, some of the basic answers are more likely to be found in private institutions than in public ones. What Is The Task? The short discourse I had originally intended has now become quite lengthy. Even so I have been guilty of some serious sins of omission. I have not touched the great god, curriculum, nor attempted any erudite discussion of the learning process or teaching techniques. I have not speculated on enriching the background for teachers nor discussed the expanding future of adult education, nor delved into the probable level of mental ability of tomorrow's average student. These, and many others, should be considered at all times, in many places—but not here. All that I set out to do here was to attempt an answer to the question: What Is The Task? If this age of ours will be remembered not for automobiles, nor atomic energy, nor wars, but for the spread- Law, '10, Makes Dramatic Announcement At Alumni Luncheon As Burt G. Weber, LLB'I9, was stepping up to the rostrum to begin his remarks as Chairmanof the Third Annual Alumni Luncheon, held as part of the Inauguration Program, he was handed a message by Christopher Baldy, LLB'IO, president of that class. Chairman Weber glanced at the paper and thought its text so significant that he included it in his remarks. Turning to Dr. Furnas, the new Chancellor, he said: "Mr. Chancellor, this is a dramatic example of the devotion and dedication of our alumni. A few months ago, a quiet campaign among the members of one Law Class was begun with the hope that each of the members of that class would wish to indicate that he had remembered the University of Buffalo in his will. And, now today, Mr. Christopher Baldy. president of the Law Class of 1910, has just handed me the results—9s per cent of that Class have already indicated that they have remembered the University in their wills. Mr. Baldy adds that 100 per cent should be realized when a couple of other members of the Class have been contacted this month. "I think you will agree with me, Mr. Chancellor and guests, that this is indeed dramatic testimony of the devotion of alumni and of their faith in their University. I am sure other classes will wish to follow the example of Law '10." President Weber's prediction proved correct. In the week following the announcement at the luncheon, Owen B. Augspurger, Jr., LLB'37, alumni vice-president for bequests, informed the Alumni Office that three classes had already contacted him for forms and had indicated their intention of emulating the fine example set by Law, *10. ing of benefits once enjoyed by the few, to all mankind, the application for universities is obvious. The watchword must be: Grow in stature and in quality. We must do for many what once was done for a few. We must learn to educate millions as well as we once educated hundreds. The University of Buffalo must do its share. Expand and grow without loss of quality. That is the task—now let's get on with it, forthwith. �MEDICAL SPRING CLINIC PROGRAM ANNOUNCED Cagers Maintain Winning Ways Chairman James R. Borzilleri, '34, announced the program for the 18th Annual Medical Spring Clinical Program to be held at the Hotel Statler on Saturday, March 26th. The program, as in the past, features a distinguished groupof doctors who will present papers at two symposia to be held during the day-long activities. Also included in the program will be the annual luncheon and business meeting, professional exhibits and quinquennial class reunions during the evening. The following speakers and their tentative subjects will be presented at the morning professional session under the chairmanship of Edward D. Cook, '33; "Modern concept of psycotherapy", Phillip P. Steckler, M.D.; "Isotopes and tracer substances", Joseph Howland, M.D.; "Orthopedics", H. Retton McCarroll, M.D. Papers to be given in the afternoon session under the chairmanship of Grant T.

Townsend Hall Sold An historic Buffalo landmark, the University's Townsend Hall has been sold. Representatives of the purchaser disclosed that the building will either or torn down and possibly used for a parking lot. The building has been used for educational purposes for more than 75 years. The structure was built around 1878 by the Women's Educational and Industrial Union as an adult educational center. As such it was the center of many educational and cultural activities of the community. The University acquired the building in 1915 and used it for the first classes of the College of Arts and Sciences. In recent years it has been used principally by Millard Fillmore College and the University's School of Social Work. The present Biology Building on the campus has been renamed Townsend Hall to comply with a provision of the original deed, by which the University acquired the building, which requires that the name by retained on some building owned by the University. be renovated Nuclear Center Chancellor Clifford C. Furnas recently disclosed that a $500,000 nuclear research center may soon be built on the University campus. Plans for the construction of the center are, as Dr. Furnas said, "still in the talking stage." He characterized the center as primarily devoted to research in medicine, physics, chemistry, biology and engineering rather than a power generating facility. Although preliminary discussions regarding the proposed center have been held at the University for the past few months no definite plan has as yet been presented to the University Council. Dr. Furnas added that he hoped to present some sort of plan for the Council's consideration in the next six months. Let Us Know!

All The "King's Men" Improve Rapidly Handicapped by the return of only two men from last year's varsity roster, the University's wrestling team under the direction of Coach George King has nonetheless been improving considerably. Led by Captain Gerry Coles and Pete Rao, the grapplers were "pinned" by the Ontario Aggies and BaldwinWallace by close scores; were "swamped" by Case Institute of Technology but rebounded back to take the measure of the Ontario Aggies by a decisive score. Coach King declared, "The team has improved 100% since the beginning of the season, as shown in its comeback against Ontario. Only spirited wrestling and the desire to win enabled the team to overcome a strong Ontario squad." Although the toughest part of the schedule is coming up. with the added experience the matmen have gained this season the future looks optimistic. 15 �16 CHANCELLOR FURNAS ANNOUNCES NEW ATHLETIC POLICY The University of Buffalo will continue to play football for at least another five years, but will eventually move most of its varsity games from Civic Stadium to Rotary Field on the campus, Chancellor Clifford C. Furnas said last month, in announcing a policy and program for athletics. In three years, the football situation will be re-examined to determine whether the sport should be continued. "A sound athletic program, including intercollegiate competition, is a desirable part of university life," the policy states. Dr. Furnas added, "Overemphasis on sports obviously can become an evil, but to avoid this, it is not necessary to err in the other direction by under-emphasizing the value of vigorous athletic competition, or discontinuing athletic programs altogether." According to the program, "Explorbe made concerning the feasibility of forming an athletic conference of schools within an appropriate geographical area affording a suitable level of competition. Final decision on joining such a conference will be made not later than the fall of 1957." A few of the home games will be played on the campus in the fall of 1955, the others at Civic Stadium. The program states that, "When and if funds are available for enlarging the seating capacity and improving the facilities at Rotary Field, more of the games will be moved there. In that case the Civic Stadium will be used only when unusually large crowds are anticipated." ations will According to the policy statement, "The University will welcome contributions from individuals or organizations for the aid of worthy students who maintain an adequate scholastic standing, and who need financial help. The division and apportionment of the total resources the University has for aiding students will reflect the fundamental intention to give financial help where it is needed most and where it can be used best for the student's own development, and for the eventual benefit of this society. "In weighing qualifications for scholarships, the Scholarship Committee will be guided by the University's desire to give full recognition to the value of extra-curricular activities, including varsity sports, while avoiding exaggeration of the part athletic competition may desirably play in the student's life and that of the University." Chancellor Furnas said that this policy and program have been agreed upon in principle by three University groups: the Athletic Committee, the Scholarship Committee,and the Alumni Athletic Council. UNIVERSITY OF BUFFALO ATHLETIC POLICY 1. A sound athletic program, including intercollegiate competition, is a desirable part of university life. 2. The University will welcome contributions from individuals or organizations for the aid of worthy students who maintain an adequate scholastic standing, and who need financial help. This assistance may be given in the form of scholarships, leadership awards, or grants-in-aid. All such funds must be paid directly to the University and will be administered by the University Scholarship Committee within the existing framework of its rules and regulations. 3. The entire program of financial aid to students shall be in keeping with the letter and spirit of the regulations of the National Collegiate Athletic Association and of the Eastern College Athletic Conference. The division and apportionment of the total resources the University has for aiding students will reflect the fundamental intention to give financial help where it is needed most and where it can be used best for the student's own development, and for the eventual benefit of this society. In weighing qualifications for scholarships, the Scholarship Committee will be guided by the University's desire to give full recognition to the value of extra-curricular activities, including varsity sports, while avoiding exaggeration of the part athletic competition may desirably play in the student's life and that of the University. These principles are in accordance with those laid down by the Middle States Association. PROGRAM 1. A program of intercollegiate football will be continued at the Univer- sity for at least another five years, beginning with the academic year 1955-56. 2. At the end of three years (the fall of 1957) the football situation will be thoroughly re-analyzed to determine whether or not the sport should be continued. 3. Explorations will be made concerning the feasibility of forming an athletic conference of schools within an appropriate geographical area offering a suitable level of competition. Final decision on joining such a conference will be made not later than the fall of 1957. 4. A program will be instituted to move most of the varsity football games to Rotary Field on the campus as rapidly as feasible. A few of the home games will be played there in the fall of 1955, the others at the Civic Stadium. When and if funds are available for enlarging the seating capacity and improving the facilities at Rotary Field, more of the games will be moved there. In that case the Civic Stadium will be used only when unusually large crowds are anticipated. 5. From time to time further studies will be made of the complete athletic program, including all sports, both intramural and intercollegiate. SWOROBUK, '52, NAMED ASSISTANT ALUMNI DIRECTOR James C.

MEMBER OF THE AMERICAN ALUMNI COUNCIL PLEASE NOTIFY US OF CHANGE OP ADDRESS �3 A MESSAGE Z/rom the Chancellor of the Ulniveriity: To the Alumni: America, in the mid-twentieth century, is just beginning to find its true place in world history. As a nation, we are barely five generations old, but I think we can say without boasting that within that period our progress has been quite phenomenal as compared to any previous national performance. The reasons back of this remarkable performance if such it is are many. Certainly one of the major factors has been the willingness and eagerness of the average American to solve common problems by voluntary cooperative effort rather than waiting for a centralized control to force the issue. One evidence of this spirit is our dual system of higher education. About half of the colleges and the universities in the country are publicly supported, about half are private. From the record this would appear to be a position of optimum strength and probably one which would be perilous to abandon. This spirit of voluntary cooperative effort is certainly being exhibited by the fine performance of the University of Buffalo Alumni. One of the outstanding events of the past year has been the growth of the Annual Participating Fund for Medical Education. This fund has now grown to over $100,000 per year and is still growing. It is already proving to be extremely helpful in strengthening and enlarging the educational activities in the basic sciences in our Medical School. This is reputed to be the best alumni performance of any medical school in the country a record of which we should all be proud. The Dental Alumni are also more than well started on a Participating Fund of their own, having in a few short weeks succeeded in getting annual pledges of well over one-half of their goal of $50,000 per year. Another very significant indication of the rising tide of individual responsibility among both the Alumni and non-Alumni of the region has been the increasing sums in the category of "special gifts". Many of these are in the form of unrestricted funds, which of course are of the greatest use to the University, others are given with specifications for particular uses. They are all very helpful, indeed, and represent an important element of the true strength of the University for the future. It is not necessary, however, to be a giver of large gifts or a contributor to the special professional funds to help the University in a very substantial degree. The aid to students comes in three categories—scholarships, leadership awards, and grants-in-aid. Any funds which enable us to attract students who are of top quality for both scholastic and extra-curricular achievement strengthen the academic body and, hence, the University as a whole. To any — — — and all Alumni, may I suggest that contributions of whatever size possible ways of keeping the Alma Mater ivy green and luxuriant. to the funds for student aid is one of the best �4 ~jrrom AMESG the J~und (committee (chairman : To the Alumni: It is gratifying for a Fund Raising Committee to note a generous response. And the past year has been favorable in that 3058 Alumni gave to various Funds at the University a total of 5250,491 for an average of SBO per donor. However, if the 15,000 who did not give would send in a few dollars each, our results would be phenomenal. We are as happy to receive two dollars as a thousand. Too many Alumni just don't get around to sending a check, and if no one remembered there would be no report to give you. Fortunately, this is not true; hence the excellent summary we have for you. We thank you, and with a new Captain at our helm it really looks like the University is going places, that is if we all support our new Chancellor financially. But this doesn't mean only one out of every six Alumni. Remember: part of the Loyalty Fund goes for Leadership Awards for outstanding students who need help with their tuition. The Medical Alumni have established the Annual Participating Fund which, in effect, replaces the Medical division of the Alumni Loyalty Fund, and has now pledged $100 per man per year. The total pledged so far is over 8100,000 per year for the School. The Dental Alumni have a similar Fund to which 526,000 has already been pledged—and this Fund has just been set up. There is a very significant increase in the "Special Gifts" category. It should be pointed out that these are special gifts and direct bequests by Alumni during the year. Have you remembered to include the University of Buffalo in your will? Talk this point to your friends who would like to leave a permanent memorial when they pass on. Two years ago we reminded you that the interest on a million dollars was S5 an hour. Most of us can give some interest at least, on a huge gift.

How do these Funds relate to the Alumni Loyalty Fund? In effect, they replace the Medical and Dental divisions of the Loyalty Fund. Pledgors to the Medical and Dental Funds will no doubt recall that the pledge card has the statement: "Amounts paid to the Annual (Medical and Dental) Participating Fund are also credited to the Alumni Loyalty Fund". 5 (Especially to Meds and Dents) In effect, then, as the solicitations for the Medical and Dental Education Participating Funds "move out" from the Western New York area to cover alumni throughout the nation and in foreign countries, these Medical and Dental Funds will replace the Medical and Dental divisions of the Alumni Loyalty Fund. How about the Mcd and Dent Class Agents then? In most cases, these loyal workers for the University have been recruited, or soon will be, as solicitors or area workers for the Medical and Dental Education Participating Funds. That's one of the reasons why these Funds are proving to be the success they already are! ANALYTICAL CHEMISTRY Albert P. Sy, PhD '08 Chairman CONTRIBUTORS: 1913 1917 Lester J. Malone 1914 Warren S.

C. Furnas at the University's annual Midyear Commencement exercises on February 22nd. The occasion was also a notable one for Dr. Furnas since it marked the first one over which he had presided as Chancellor. Principal speaker at the ceremony was Chancellor William P. Tolley of Syracuse University who told the new graduates that the pressure to make Americans "think alike" is possibly a greater threat to American democracy than is communism. Dr. Tolley stressed that "America has more to fear from those shaping the new American orthodoxy than from the handful of men and women promoting the Marxist conspiracy". One of the principal features of the Commencement program was the presentation of the University's Chancellor's Medal to one of Buffalo's most distinguished sons, A. Conger Goodyear, nationally-recognized patron of the fine arts. In awarding the medal for the University, Chancellor Furnas cited Mr. Goodyear especially for "his work and accomplishment as an humanitarian, business and military leader, student and patron of the arts, and proponent and stimulator of higher education". It was Mr. Goodyear, currently a resident of Long Island, who initiated what has become an outstanding collection of modern sculpture at the Albright Art Gallery. He was also instrumental in establishing the Museum of Modern Art in New York City and served as its first president for ten years. The Chancellor's Medal, established in the will of the University's sixth Chancellor, the late Charles P. Norton, is intended to cite those "who personify civic patriotism and vivify public service in the eyes of the citizens of Buffalo". 23 Student Winter Carnival "Best Ever" Highlighted by a fabulous snow .sculpturing contest and a series of novelty ski events, the University's Annual Winter Carnival this year was hailed as the best ever held in the history of the event. Near zero temperatures and a plentiful supply of that white stuff, which had been so sadly lacking during previous years, assured the necessary conditions for a successful affair. Dr. Turnas and Mr, Goodyear Students Stage Opera Students at the University, for the first time in its history, will present a completely staged and costumed opera. Henry Purcell's "Dido and Aeneas", will be produced by the Student Public Relations Committee of the Board of Managers in conjunction with the Departments of Drama, Dance and Music on April 21, 22 and 23 in Norton Union auditorium. Conducted by Herbert Beattie, assistant professor of music, the production will be staged by James Bravar, instructor of drama, with the choreography directed by Mrs. Bertha M. Pfeffer, instructor of dance. Members of the cast include Vivian Girard, soprano; Robert Bauer, baritone; Dorothy Rosen berger, soprano; William Wagner, bass; and Toni Packer, mezzo-soprano. Proceeds will be used to establish a scholarship to be awarded to a student entering the College of Arts and Sciences in the fall term. A special patrons' list will be printed in the program. Patron's subscriptions are $5.00 a person. Tickets are $1.00 for students and $1.75 for other individuals. Inquiries concerning tickets and subscriptions may be addressed to Mr. Herbert Beattie, Music Department, University of Buffalo, Buffalo 14, New York. - The snow sculpturing contest, which was held at the Thruway Plaza, featured a wide variety of contemporary ice and snow art. Among the exhibits were an old covered bridge, a swimming pool complete with frozen blue water, diving board and shivering, bathing-suit clad coeds. All of the structures and figures entered in the contest displayed a high degree of ingenuity, artistic ability and just plain hard work. The novelty ski events which were held on the campus were also warmly applauded by all the participants and spectators. One of the most enthusiastic spectators was Chancellor Clifford C. Furnas, who also tried his hand at the "boards" during the course of the activities. The fact that these events were held on the campus rather than elsewhere as in past years appeared to be a good reason for the added enjoyment of every individual attending. Education Placement Service Has Several Openings For Teachers The Educational Placement Service of the University would like to assist its alumni who wish to secure new positions. Those who are interested in being considered for openings should notify the Supervisor of Educational Placement, Miss Shirley Krafft, in the Office of the Dean of Students, 192 Hayes Hall. It is important to indicate the type of position, salary, and location which you desire, as well as complete information relative to your experience and advanced training. �24 HEALTH SCIENCES CENTER & SCIENCE BUILDINGS PROPOSED Pictured above is the Health Sciences Center, in effect a South Wing on Capen Hall Plans for a new Health Sciences Center and a new home for the Physics Department were presented to the Council of the University by Chancellor Clifford C. Furnas at a recent Council meeting. The proposed structures make up an anticipated $2,578.-662 building program. The new Health Sciences Center will be built adjoining Capen Hall. home of Medical-Dental School. It will house the Schools of Pharmacy and Nursing, the Department of Biology, and a new Cardiovascular Research Center. The preliminary plans provide for a three-story structure adjoining the south wing of Capen Hall. Its estimated cost is $1,953,262. A three-story Physics unit will be built adjoining the present Science Building, now known as Townsend Hall. It would be built at the rear of the Science Building facing Clark Gymnasium. The unit would house the Physics Department, releasing classroom space now occupied by that department in the Engineering Building. Hayes Hall, Foster Hall and the present Biology Building. Although Chancellor Furnas has pointed out that the University has no funds at present to erect the new structures, it is understood that both structures have high priority in any plans for future building Chancellor has previous occasions that arrangements might be pus. The on the camindicated on he believes made with area industries and business to scribe funds for such purposes. sub- Sketch of proposed large addition to present Physics Building UNIVERSITY HISTORY Dr. Julian Park, Dean-Emeritus of the College of Arts and Sciences and University Historian, will soon start work on a history of the University. He has expressed the hope that alumni having material of value such as letters, scrapbooks, and pictures will donate or lend them, through him, to the University, where every care will be taken of them. Personal reminiscences would also be of great value. Please send any such material to Dean Park at 237 Crosby Hall, University Campus. He can also be reached at UN. 9300, extension 53. Hochstetter Makes Substantial Gift Design and planning1 of construction for the new Physics Building will proceed immediately as a result of a gift to the University of $182,625 by Mr. Ralph Hochstetter, president of the Cliff Petroleum Company and a director of the Manufacturers and Traders Trust Company of Buffalo. Chancellor C. C. Furnas, in announcing the gift, indicated that the money will help pay for construction of the proposed Physics Building and stated, "We are immensely grateful to Mr. Hochstetter for this gift. It will enable us to make a good start on the building and we can proceed immediately with design and planning. With this gift Mr. Hochstetter has given us a fine start and we hope the building will be a reality before too long. There is a very great need for it." �25 Tuition Credit On U. S. Income Taxes Med Fund Noted In A.M.A. Journal A proposed amendment to the Federal Income Tax Law is now before the Congress of the United States providing for a credit on tax bills, for the individual taxpayer, of 30% of the tuition paid to institutions of higher education. Mounting costs have created a desperate financial crisis in higher education today. Unbalanced budgets, low faculty salaries, and long-delayed plant maintenance are all results of this inflationary situation. As a result, most colleges and universities have found it necessary to compensate by imposing part of the burden on students and their families in the form of higher tuition rates and increased charges. These increased charges have proved extremely burdensome and have made it impossible, Dental Fund Half-way To Goal The Annual Participating Fund for Medical Education has received national attention through publication of an article describing the Fund and its purposes in the March 12th issue, Journal of the American Medical Association. Although still in its early stages, the Annual Dental Education Participating Fund is enjoying unprecedented success. at times, for parents to give their children the benefit of a college edu- cation. The proposed amendment, sponsored by the American Council on Education, is designed to alleviate, in some measure, this prohibitive finan- cing. It is felt that a substantial program of tax-relief given for student fees and tuition would enable many families to re-evaluate their financial position in terms of establishing a feasible budget for the payment of their children's education. The essential features of the amendment are: a. It would be limited to payments made to the institutions themselves for educational services and facilities. It will not cover payments for housing, travel and meals. b. Only those payments made to taxfree educational institutions, as defined by the Federal Income Tax Law, would be considered for credit. c. It would apply only to higher education, that above the twelfth grade, including colleges and graduate schools. d. It provides that 30% of the student fees would be taken as a tax credit on the tax bill. The 30% must not exceed $450. c. There need be no specific blood relationship between the taxpayer claiming the tax credit and the student whose tuition is being paid. It is hoped that this will result in the establishment of more scholarship funds by individuals who have no blood relationship to any particular student but who do have a philanthropic interest in their progress. Titled "Medical School Support and the Physician", the article relates how the Participating Fund was conceived and initiated at the University of Buffalo. It goes on to tell of the amazing response to the Fund appeal and purposes by Medical alumni and nonalumni physicians in the Western New York area. Just prior to the publication of the article, on February 22nd, the first annual meeting of the membership of the Fund was held at Capen Hall. The Chancellor, Dean of the School of Medicine, and the Treasurer of the University addressed the meeting and told of how the fu»ds raised during the initial year of the Fund had been used to engage more basic science faculty and to raise salaries of current members of the basic science departments. Also at this meeting, Edgar C. Beck, MD'l9, was re-elected chairman of the Executive Committee of the Fund. Dr. Beck, in leading the Fund into its second year, noted that more than $100,000 had been pledged so far and that during 1955 the solicitation would be extended to contact alumni throughout the nation. — In only three report meetings covering a five-week period dental alumni and members of the dental profession in Buffalo and Western New York area have brought the Fund more than half-way to its goal of $50,000 pledged annually. At the third meeting, more than $25,000 was the total reported pledged. — This figure means that more than 250 dental alumni and fellow dentists in Western New York are pledging $100 a year to guarantee the future of independent dental education at the University. Chairman Edward F. Mimmack, DDS'2I, announced that the Executive Committee of the Fund will arrange for a bronze placque to be erected in the lobby of Dental School, listing the names of those pledging $100 a year in the first year of the Fund's operation. Dr. Mimmack also announced that the Niagara Falls, Olean, Lockport, Batavia, and New York City areas have been organized for solicitation. Hesaid other centers of dental alumni residence also would be organized within the next two months. Dental alumni residing in more removed cities and sections will be contacted later by mail so that they, too, may participate. New Foundation Names University As Beneficiary United Steelworkers Establish Scholarship The University has been named beneficiary of a new Buffalo foundation established by Edwin F. Jaeckle, LLB'IS, attorney and former Erie County Republican chairman, and David Abrams, president of Liberty Shoe Stores, Inc. Terms of the deed and trust agreement, filed recently in the Erie County Clerk's Oflice, indicate that the University will receive the income from the property at 442 Main Street, occupied by Morrison's Inc. The deed revealed that the principal of the foundation is valued at $435,000. A scholarship valued at more than $2700 has been established at the University by the local United Steelworkers of America, CIO. It is believed to be the first scholarship set up by a labor group in this area. Terms of the scholarship agreement provide that the grant is open to any member of the local or the son or daughter of any member. John Walczak, local steelworkers' president, in announcing the scholarship, indicated that it is a general one and may be used in any undergraduate division of the University. �26 Siekmann Named As Director of Alumni Relations ASSOCIATION AND CLUB NEWS AROUND Arts and Sciences Alumni Association A number of meetings of the officers and executive committee of the Arts and Sciences Alumni Association have recently been held in Norton Union, on the University campus, to formulate plans for the Annual Reunion Dinner held each spring.

"Jumpin' Jim" Horne Plays Last Game Led for the last tune by "Jumpin' Jim" Home, most prolific scorer in the annals of basketball at the University, the University's cage team closed out one of its finest seasons by trouncing Buffalo State Teachers College, 84-74. The "Eikenmen" posted a formidable 16-6 seasonal record. Home paved the way to victory over State with 32 points and ended his playing career by re-writing the record books at the University. Some of the records which stand beside his name include the highest season scoring record of 572 points; an individual career total of 1857 points; and most points ever scored in one game by a player, 41 points against the University of Rochester. An excellent student and top allaround athlete, "Jumpin' Jim" has remained a quiet, unassuming individual despite the honors heaped upon him during his illustrious varsity career. His exemplary conduct, both on and off the basketball court, have made him one of the University's mostpopular representatives and his activities generally have reflected great credit on the University. Not many people were aware of the effort, and time "Jim" has expended on younger boys in coaching and encouraging their basketball careers. His efforts were rewarded in part recently when he was Richard W, Offenbamer Dick Offenhamer is the new football coach at the University.

Last of the ninth, two men out and one man on base. Joe Girard, University of Buffalo right fielder, dances off second base. The pitch comes in and with the crack of the bat Girard heads for home. The ball is whipped toward the plate and the crowd roars, "Slide, Joe, slide." The ball and Girard arrived at the plate together and the result is shown on our cover. Final score University of Buffalo 3, Canisius 2. We felt sure that the alumni would like to share, with the team, this moment of triumph.

MEMBER OF THE AMERICAN ALUMNI COUNCIL PLEASE NOTIFY US OF CHANGE OF ADDRESS �3 SEVEN QUESTIONS The Commencement Address of Chancellor C. C. Furnas Commencement Day is frequently the time when the older generation tries to evade its responsibilities by throwing the torch of civilization to the younger. The presentations are usually laced with a full quota of admonishments and good advice, which often fall on unwilling ears. Despite these multitudinous perennial passings, the torch of civilization still seems to remain alight and alive. It is mypurpose, in taking what I trust will not be too many minutes, to uphold the tradition by posing seven inter-related questions. Item I One of the monumental efforts in the writing of history has been completed recently by Dr. Arnold J. Toynbee, of the University of London, in the form of a multi-volume "A Study of History". Although there is some argument in professional circles as to the acceptability of his treatment, it is certainly true that he has given us one of the most comprehensive views of the social forces and major trends which make up the story of what we call civilization. He delineates the rise and decadence of twenty different civilizations on which we have substantial written or physical evidence. One might judge from this that history will inevitably repeat itself and that modern-day Western civilization is destined for a decline and fall. But it may be premature to assume that we are doomed. Dr. Toynbee has pointed out that something new has been added an emotional situation which is now being evidenced on a world-wide scale. In a relatively recent article he expresses the opinion that the 20th century will not be remembered for world wars, or the automobile, the airplane, antibiotics, or even nuclear energy, but rather for "... having been the first age since the dawn of civilization, some five or six thousand years back, in which people dared to think it practicable to make the benefits of civilization available for the whole human race". QUESTION No. I—Will it be physically and emotionally possible to accommodate this rising ambition of the human race? Itemll Due in large measure to the effective and humanitarian work of the medical profession in saving lives, the — QUESTION No. 3—Can we adapt expand our knowledge of science, and technology and sociology rapidly enough to meet the needs of the everincreasing population? Item 111 Our physical existence depends upon the resources which are available to us thousands of items in various categories of food, water, energy and minerals. Even now shortages are beginning to appear and make themselves felt. For instance, when the Mesabi Range in Minnesota came into use a half century ago, it was thought that there would be sufficient high grade iron ore there to last America for many centuries. But the use of iron has increased so rapidly that by the mid-20th century the higher grades of Mesabi ore are already almost gone. This has been a major reason why the St. Lawrence Seaway has finally been accepted as a necessary pathway for bringing ore to the Great Lake ports from Labrador and other outside sources. In the western half of the United States, and in many other parts of the which is one of outworld, water most necessary natural resources —is already in short supply. The support of more and more people with a higher standard of living requires an ever-increasing degree of industrialization. This calls for rapidly increasing amounts of energy which, to date, we are largely taking from the fossil fuels—coal, oil and gas. The curve of energy use is rising with extreme rapidity. The United States, which has only a little more than 6f/r of the world's population, utilizes almost 507cof the total energy of the world and correspondingly produces and uses almost one-half of the industrial goods and services. If the other 94% of the people of the world should be able suddenly to rise to our own level of industrial production, the demand for energy would be immediately increased by almost tenfold. Many trends indicate that the bona fide energy needs of the world a century hence may very well be almost a hundred-fold greater than at present. The fossil fuels—coal, oil and gas— will not, by any stretch of the imagination, be able to supply this need. Balanced against this picture of depletion of energy is the fact that we — Chancellor Furnas presents degrees ... world is now in a period of population expansion which can be characterized as explosive. The rate of population increase is far greater than it has ever been before, and the evidence is that the high rate of increase will continue for many years to come. At the present time there are about 2,400,000,000 people living on the surface of the earth and the net increase is almost 100,000 human beings every day. A century hence, unless some great catastrophe intervenes, which we do not now foresee, the world population will be at least 6,000,000,---000. In the Continental United States the present population is about 165,---000,000 and a century hence (only three generations away) it will be at least 375,000,000. This is almost a 250% increase. No social forces are in sight which will stop or reverse this trend. We are already faced with many pressures resulting from these rising numbers. It is estimated that fully half the population of the world is malnourished, and many millions are on the verge or in the throes of starvation. In America we do not worry as much about starvation as we do about where to park our cars, but there are many population-pressure problems, even here. In my opinion, it should be physically possible to supply the adequate means for the existence of these great numbers of people, but it is problematical whether we will make necessary sociological advances in time to prevent extremely serious upheavals. — �4 leges and universities. This poses very serious and continuing problems. We also have quantitative problems. Within the next fifteen years in the United States the number who will be knocking at the doors of the academic halls of the colleges and universities will practically double. QUESTION No. 5 the structure, — Can we adjust scope and size of the colleges and universities to meet the needs of the next generation ? Item VI began in September 1939 and, more or less, formally ended in August 1945. The dominant factor in this greatest-of-all armed conflicts was the impact of air power. In the span of six years the Allied Air Forces, using many thousands of airplanes, dropped almost two million tons of bombs on enemy targets. Those bombs contained about a million tons of high explosives. Less than two years ago on an atoll in the Pacific a so-called hydrogen bomb, which might have been carried by one airplane and delivered to a single target, was exploded. It reputedly had an explosive power twenty times greater than all of the bombs dropped by both the British and American air forces in the six years of World War 11. I can leave to your own imagination the picture of the destruction that would probably be wrought in a World War in if both we and the Soviet Union were equipped with an adequate supply of hydrogen bombs. World War II Pictured above is the receiving line at the Chancellor's reception in Norton Union following the Commencement exercises. are now beginning to learn to use nuclear energy for peaceful purposes. The amount of power locked in the atoms which we can use, after we have developed the appropriate knowledge, is many times greater than that in the fossil fuels. Furthermore, 30.000 times as much energy as we are currently using falls on the earth each year in the form of sunlight. We do not know how to use it with any acceptable degree of efficiency as yet, but the supply is there, waiting for human cleverness to put it to work. QUESTION No. 3—Can the world advance rapidly enough, scientifically and sociologically, to make full and wise use of our natural resources in this and succeeding generations? Item IV In 1769 James Watt in England received his first patent on an improved steam engine. Subsequently, steam power was adapted to manufacturing processes and the sociological development known as the Industrial Revolution was well under way. Although the Industrial Revolution is usually considered as something which was completed in western Europe in a generation or two, it is my contention that it is just now getting well started. We see the evidence of that in the rise within the last few months of a new term—"automation". Automation is merely a new word which is used as a label for the industrial processes wherein machines are used to operate or even build the machines which produce consumers' goods and services. There are those who fear that a rapid rise of automation will lead to wide-spread technological unemployment. But careful analysis shows that there will actually be more opportunities for employment. The kinds of jobs will change, but the total number will not decrease and the productivity per worker will rise rapidly. If one lets his imagination roam, he can see tremendous potential benefits in terms of higher standards of living, more leisure, a better lifefor all people. QUESTION' No. 4—Can we make the sociological and economic adjustments which are implicit in carrying the Industrial Revolution to its logical conclusions by the full utilization of the principles of automation? Item V It is obvious from the few situations I have already outlined, and others which you could readily add, that civilization is becoming quite complicated. This has a had a major impact, particularly during- the last half century, in the field of education. In order to have the adequate background for good citizenship and for appreciating life, and for earning a living, it has been found necessary to maintain an ever-rising level of formal education. This is reflected in our own legal requirements for compulsory education through secondary schools and in the ever-increasing proportion of individuals who find it highly desirable, or even necessary, to go to college. Since education should serve the purposes of the next generation, rather than the past (an item which many persons of this generation seem to overlook), we find ourselves in a continuous quandary about the appropriate curriculum make-up and environmental conditions necessary for present-day col- QUESTION No. 6—Can World War 111 be avoided? Item VII The previous six questions are merely prologue to my seventh and final one. If I may refer again to Dr. Toynbee and remind you that he has outlined the rise and fall of twenty civilizations of the past, the final question is obvious. — Will Western QUESTION No. 7 civilization be No. 21 on the list of those which entered the race but failed to finish ? You may have either of two reactions to the questions I have posed. The first, and perhaps the most probable, is one of complete indifference. You may not deny the validity of the questions and the implied problems but may say: well those are things . �for someone else to worry about. Besides I couldn't do anything- about them anyway. This path of indifference would be easiest one to take but it would the probably lead to results that would be far from indifferent. If everyone ignores the problems involved, and simply lets human nature take its course in random fashion, history will record that we arrived at a set of answers which were far from the best. An alternate reaction which some of you may adopt is a frantic feeling that doom is upon of desperation us and that we must do something;— spelled in capital letters—though we are not sure what. But if a substantial portion of the people adopted the frantic approach to international affairs, it would be analogous to attempting delicate surgery with a meat axe—the results would probably be fatal. .... Since we are presumably reasonable people, I would like to leave with you the suggestion that the most appropriate and wisest course is somewhere between the two extremes. Middle-ofthe-road policies are often lacking in glajnor, but in the long run they are frequently the most effective. Such a pattern of thought and action in a democratic society necessarily embodies what I like to call collective intelligence. We must recognize, of course, that it takes much more than pure intellect to answer social questions. Great problems involving many people are usually handled in an atmosphere of high emotion and the participants often show but little evidence of being rational human beings. But, even though it acts slowly, it is certainly true that intelligence can and does have some influence in shaping mass emotions. It is in this slow modification of mass emotional patterns that the average college graduate can and should p-lay a continuing role, within his own sphere of influence. College graduates certainly have no monopoly on intelligence but. on the average, they are the better equipped by nature and nurture to be the leaders of thought and action. This is especially true if they have absorbed an appropriate amount of that body of knowledge which comes under the category of the liberal arts. I trust that the education you have received here has been sufficiently basic, sufficiently broad and sufficiently liberal so that you may all be good citizens as well as professionally proficient men and women. I am fully aware that all of you who are graduating today will, for some time to come, and for the most part, be rightly concerned with quite personal problems in which the earning of a living will take a most dominant position. This is good. It is one of the things that has made America great because, from the beginning of our history, the average American has accepted the responsibility for the welfare of himself and his family and has not followed the easy path of letting someone else worry about it. May this feeling of individual responsibility ever continue. But, over and above these individual problems, are those paramount and still unanswered questions which involve all aspects of the world we live in. You cannot escape them, even on an atoll in the Pacific. Your physical welfare, your own enjoyment of life, the well-being of your children will depend on how wisely these questions are met and answered in the not-distant future. If the decision is left to a dictator, the answers will probably be wrong and very unpalatable. Satisfactory answers can only come from collective intelligence and collective intelligence is not compiled by a lot of other people. It is formed by you, your family and your associates. It is particularly important that the collective answers arrived at in the United States be approximately correct because, whether we like it or not, we are now in the dominant world position, politically and economically. Leadership has its grave responsibilities. — I will make no attempt to delineate ways and means for individuals to make their intellects effective in national and international affairs. The paths, are many, varied and everchanging. To the individual who is well-informed, alert and willing, many spheres of influence will keep opening up. Trying to do something about it, even in a modest way, will often require a high degree of moral and — spiritual stamina and sometimes courage. I trust that your college years have helped you to acquire or maintain these sterling virtues. As you can see, I do not know the answers to any of my own questions and I am led to believe that neither does anyone else. But every graduating class in 1955, here and elsewhere, will inevitably play an important role by either ignoring the questions or trying to do something about the answers. So, as a representative of the older generation, as I proceed with the annual passing of the torch, I do so with an earnest plea—that your education never cease, that you cultivate and maintain an interest in these serious social problems of the world we live in, that whenever opportunity is afforded you bend your wills, your intelligence and your spirit toward seeking the better solutions. May you all have the rich, fruitful and enjoyable lives of which you have often dreamed and may you frequently have that additional glow of satisfaction which will come when you have contributed something to finding the better answers to the questions which face you, your family, your country and your civilization.

Kluckhohn, rated as one of the greatest offensive ends in Red Raider annals, rewrote the record books of the Eastern Intercollegiate Football Association in 1951, his senior year. Karl caught 45 passes for a total of 816 yards. He was named to the United Press All-East team and received All-America mention from several recognized selection bodies. He was also selected to perform in the East-West Shrine game in San Francisco, Calif, and performed outstandingly. He is marriedand the father of one son. Kluckhohn assumed his duties at the beginning of the recent spring football practice. Burr Appointed Sports Publicity Director Head coach, Dick Offenbamer. drills prospective candidates during the recent spring practice. Last April 18 Dick Offenhamer, new head coach of football at the University of Buffalo, addressed the Bull's fifty man squad at the opening of spring practice in the following manner. "Football is a serious game. I intend that it should be treated seriously at all times and not just on game Saturdays in the fall. It's hard work and we shall work hard each day we are on the field for as long as practice lasts. If any of you are inclined to treat the sport as a lark, our football association will be a brief one." Twenty days and a dozen rugged contact sessions later the final practice session was over and Offenhamer's admonition had been thoroughly born out. For this had proved to be a deadly serious spring practice, one that featured nothing but hard, strength sapping, brain wearying work. - - The lack of depth in the interior line proved the outstanding weakness to be brought out during the intensified drill period. The Bulls had some good football talent up front, but not quite enough of it to suit the coaching staff. On the other hand, the practice sessions uncovered a number of excellent ends and U. B. could be very well fortified at the flanks next fall. Overall the picture appears brighter than it has in several seasons. Spirit and desire to win are in oversupply among squad members. If the ability to operate successfully from the complicated and colorful split-T can come close to keeping pace, the University of Buffalo is a cinch to take a giant size stride along the road back to football prominence. For as Offenhamer puts it, "we won't enter into any game on our schedule with any idea but that we've got a good chance to win." Director of Athletics Jim Peelle, recently announced the appointment of Charles Burr to the position of Director of Sports Publicity and Sports Promotion. Burr, a 28-year-old resident of Kenmore, recently resigned as sports director of station WXRA in Kenmore. In making the announcement, Mr. Peelle stated that the former State Teachers' basketball star would be responsible for all publicity and promotion pertaining to the athletic program at the University. A graduate of Kenmore High School, Mr. Burr received a bachelor of science degree in education from Buffalo State Teachers College in January, 1950. He then joined the announcing staff of station WHLD in Niagara Falls prior to assuming the sports directorship at WXRA in May 1950. Mr. Burr served with the 17th Airborne Division during World War 11. He participated in three campaigns in the European Theatre of Operations, making a total of 13parachute jumps. He is married to the former Julia Hogan of Sherburne, New York and has two children. �13 Final Sports Review The University of Buffalo spring sports representatives have completed their most successful campaign in many years. The baseball, track and tennis teams have, among them, rung up an eye-popping record of victories to-date, and the success of each is already assured. Among them the diamond, court and thin-clad Bulls have won 29 games, meets and matches as opposed to but four losses. Bill Sanford's tennis team, paced by the brilliant Al Levy and Captain Mike Kisiel, pounded out ten straight victories before they were beaten by Colgate University, one of the powerhouses of the east.. The racqueteers, in addition, lost but a dozen individual contests while winning over 90. Sanford and company have victimized Erie County Tech, Rochester University, St. Bonaventure, Alfred, Brockport State, Niagara, and Rochester, Buffalo State, Niagara, and Erie County Tech for the second time. The baseball team, coached by Jim Peelle, has powered its heavy-hitting and tight pitching to a remarkable 13-2 record with one game remaining. With shortstop Dick Stuck, outfielders Jim Home and Kelly Rosenbaum and third baseman Norm Pyzikiewicz performing brilliantly at bat and in the field, and with right-hander Ed Anderson bell-weathering the pitching staff, the University team has knocked over Erie County Tech twice, St. Bonaventure twice, Rochester Tech a pair, Predonia, Brockport State, Rochester U., Niagara and Canisius. The victory over Niagara avenged an earlier defeat by the Eagles but Fredonia took advantage of a series of mis-cues on the part of the Bulls to avenge their earlier defeat. Only Rochester U. remains to be played before the final curtain rings down. Coach Emery Fisher's track squad with co-captains Jack Elliott and Bob Jagodzinski, as well as sophomore sensation Lowell Petties, carrying the lion's share of the point-getting burden won five of its seven dual, triangular and quadangular meets. The trackmen romped over Canisius, Brockport, Buffalo State and Niagara in dual competition, and they won the quadangular University of Buffalo Invitational for the third year in a row besting Buffalo State, Niagara and Canisius. The only track defeats were suffered at the hands of Cortland and Alfred in a triangular meet and at the hands of the University of Rochester in a triangular meet where they again beat Niagara. Dingboom Re-appointed Varsity Line Coach Home, Elliott Honored At Athletic Awards Banquet Re-appointment of Charles Dingas line coach of the University's football team was recently announced by Jim Peelle, director of athletics. Dingboom served similarly with Fritz Febel the past three seasons following: an outstanding career as a player at the University. He now joins the new football staff of Dick Offenhainer and Karl Kluckhohn in a concerted effort to raise the stature of football at the University following several very lean and frustrating seasons. A gridiron student of great perception, Dingboom is rated a top exponent of both offensive and defensive line play. His knowledge of returning members of last year's varsity is sure to be of tremendous value to Offenhamer and Kluckhohn, neither of whom had an opportunity to see the Two more names were added to the sports greats at the University at the recent Athletic Awards Banquet of the University at the Hotel Westbrook in Buffalo. The two men were "Jumpin' Jim" Home and Jack Elliott, who received the outstanding- boom Bulls in action in 1954. He received a degree in physical education from the University in 1950. list of player trophies in their respective sports; each for the third time. Home, greatest basketball player in University history, received the Dom Gross! Trophy as the University's outstanding athlete for the third consecutive year. He is the only athlete in University athletic annals to be sc honored. Home was also presented the Dr. James J. Ailinger Trophy as the outstanding basketball player by the donor. Elliott, co-captain of the track team, who holds University records for the high-hurdles, low-hurdles and broadjump, was awarded the trophy as the track-team's high scorer for the third successive year. Hayes auditorium as it looks now. Hayes Hall To Be Renovated The stately clock tower of Hayes Hall on the University campus will be a beacon by night, as it is by day, when the installation of a system of floodlighting is completed in the near future. Hayes Hall was one of the original buildings on the 106 acre tract when the University acquired it from the County Almshouse and Hospital in 1909. Formerly the building served as a hospital. Today it is the ad- ministrative center of the Uni- versity, housing the offices of the Chancellor and other University officials as well as class- rooms. Chairman of the Building and Grounds Committee of the University Council Karr Parker, has indicated that the floodlighting is only one phase of a program to improve the building. By September Ist, the old auditorium on the third floor will have been torn out to make way for nine classrooms. Classroom lighting throughout the building is being modernized. In anticipation of future expansion of the campus, test borings are being taken to determine the depth of rock formations, Mr. Parker said. Passers- by have expressed curiosity over the activity. �12 AFROTC Ball and Awards Ceremony Nuclear Center Study Approved By Atomic Energy Commission The Atomic Energy Commission has given the University permission to make a study of the feasibility of constructing a nuclear research center at the University of Buffalo. The plan as outlined by Mr. James Evans, special assistant to the Chancellor, is designed to concentrate nuclear research on the campus and to provide a research center for the University and various industries of the Niagara Frontier on a participating basis. Chancellor Fitrnas installs Miss Kaaren Heim as Queen of the AFROTC Ball as Mrs, Furnas and Lt. Col, Ard applaud enthusiastically. F-80 Shooting Stars soared over the University campus to open the University's Air Force ROTC Awards Ceremony in Clark Memorial Gymnasium. 600 cadets stood at rigid attention as the dignitaries and guests were ushered into the Gymnasiumfor the start of the pageantry. Cadet Colonel Leonard B. Strong was master of ceremonies of the program which saw the 25-member drill team the Detachment perform for the audience. Awards to various cadets were presented by a number of the honored guests. Cadet Colonel James T. Gatza carried off the two top awards for the Wing. He received the Lawrence D. Bell Award as the outstanding graduate and for meritorious academic and military achievements. He also received the Chancellor's Award for superior academic and military achievement. The Annual AFROTC Ball was presided over by Miss Kaaren Heim, honorary Wing Commander. of The proposed facility will consist of a nuclear research reactor of standard design and construction, housed in a building on campus. Provision will be made for the handling and use of other sources of radiation such as radio-isotopes and for appropriate facilities designed to carry on a substantial research program. The entire center is to be organized as a separate non-profit corporation owned by the University and financed primarily through investments made by sponsoring companies located in the area. The University has established a scientific resources committee, composed of various members of the University faculty, which has drawn a plan of purposes and research aims which it hopes will coincide with the desires and research programs of the various local companies which have been contacted to participate in the plan. Law Students Aid Federal Attorney Three University law students were sworn in recently as legal assistants to the U. S. Attorney by Federal Judge John Knight. It was part of a new program to give law students practical experience in Federal Court work. The three men, two seniors and a junior, have been chosen for their demonstrated ability, top grades in the School of Law and their loyalty, said U. S. Attorney John O. Henderson. They will work without compensation for about ten hours a week, doing legal and factual research and helping prepare cases for trial. Given the oath were Howard L. Meyer, 11, a junior and Ward G. Smith and Irwin E. Ginsberg, seniors. Mr. Evans emphasized the fact that there will be no danger to the surrounding area in the construction of a research center on campus. The Atomic Energy Commission has established the most stringent and carefully drawn requirements to insure that a reactor of this type can not be harmful in any way. These requirements include descriptions of surrounding areas, geographic measurements, soil formations, weather reports for the proposed construction area and many other types of data which must be approved as suitable by the Commission before construction might commence. In view of the progress that has been made, the future of the center looks fairly optimistic, and is dramatic evidence of the forward steps being taken by the University to be of service to the people of the Niagara Frontier. �15 Moving-Up-Day Presents Spectacular Pageantry Nature smiled on the University of Buffalo, as a bright sun shone on the day-long festivities of Moving-UpDay. No traces of the dark rain clouds, which earlier threatened to mar the activities, were present as the long parade of colorful floats wended its way down Buffalo's Main Street to the University campus. The parade, led by the honorary grand marshal, Chancellor Clifford C. Furnas, was watched by thousands of spectators. The University's AFROTC Band provided a musical background for the spectacle. Buffalo Police escorted the procession to the reviewing stand in front of Lockwood Memorial Library where the judges inspected each float to determine the prize-winning entry. First prize was awarded to the Blue Masquers, student dramatic group, for their float captioned "County Seat". The presentation of Miss Judy Dwor as the 1955 Moving-Up-Day Queen climaxed the Sweetheart Review on the steps of Norton Union. Charles Percival, vice-president of the General Alumni Board, addressed the student body in Clark Gymnasium on the significance of Moving-Up-Day. Welcome Week Introduces University A week-long program designed to acquaint prospective students with the University and its faculty *vas recently held on the University campus and met with such success that it promises to be repeated each year. Over 500 high school pupils from western New York and Pennsylvania took part in the program which involved guided tours of the campus; luncheon with University students; and meetings with the deans and faculty members of the various divisions in which the students had been tentatively accepted. The program was established by the Student Public Relations Committee in cooperation with the Office of the Dean of Students. Left to right, Judy Ethel Hansen. Dwor, M.U.D. Queen, and her two attendants Gretchen Koehnke and Plans Disclosed For Fine Arts Center Honorary Dental Group Installs New Members The University administration recently disclosed that construction of a new fine arts center on the University campus might possibly begin in the spring of 1956. It was explained, however, that as yet no funds are available for the building and that any date for the start of construction is one of conjecture and cannot be realized until such funds are forthcoming. This year four members of the graduating class of the Dental School of the University have been selected for membership in Omicron Kappa Upsilon, a national honorary society for members of the dental profession. The installation banquet was recently held at the Buffalo Trap and Field Club. Principal speaker was Dr. Clifford C. Furnas, Chancellorof the University. Preliminary sketches for the new building are being drawn up by Paul Schweikher, a private architect and professor of architecture at Yale University. Arrangements for his work were made privately and not by the University. Omicron Kappa was organized in 1914 and at the present time there Chancellor Clifford C. Furnas asserted, "Mr. Schweikher is making a study of the locations and functions for a fine-arts center which will in- clude both drama and music, but the project is by no means fully financed." Dr. Furnas promised, "Plans for a fine-arts center will not interfere with plans and financing of other parts of the University. We are trying to advance on all fronts as rapidly as pos- sible." are chapters in every recognized dental school in the United States. To be selected for membership the students selected had to be in the upper fifth of their class and considered to possess qualities for future professional growth and achievement. Members of this year's graduating class honored include Salvadore Fred Sansone, A. Edward Cappuci, Charles W. Fineout and Sidney F. Fineberg. Also elected to faculty membership were Dr. Nelson L. Blackmore, DDS '49. Dr. Harry E. Flynn, DDS'SI. Dr. Stephen F. Kissel, DDS'4B. Dr. Raymond B. Kielich, DDS'4S, and Dr. George D. Lynch, DDS'4I. Membership was presented to the group by Dr. Leon J.

Dr. Daniel F. O'Neill, DDS'23, was named representative to the General Alumni Board. Miami The Biscayne Terrace Hotel in Miami Beach, Florida was the scene of the first organizational meeting of the Miami Area Alumni Club of the University. The group, under the chairmanship of Marvin L. Kimmel, LLB'39, heard Dr. Clifford C. Furnas, Chancellor of the University, express his pleasure at the interest and loyalty displayed by the alumni in the University. The alumni were also addressed by Dr. James J. Ailinger. DDS'2S. of the University faculty. Although the first group was a small one a great deal of enthusiasm was displayed and all attending indicated they were looking forward to subsequent events which would crystallize into a permanent Florida Alumni Association. "Buffalonian" Available To Alumni On Request The dedication of the 1955 Buffalo- nian, the University yearbook, highlighted the first annual Buffalonian Dinner at the Park Lane Restaurant on May 10th. Thomas H. Rosinski, editor of the yearbook, read the dedication which honored the new Chancellor, Dr. Clifford C. Furnas, and presented the first copy of the publication to the Chancellor. Present at the dinner were past editors, representatives of various companies which assisted in production of the yearbook and the 1955 yearbook staff. Alumni may purchase the yearbook by sending their check or moneyorder for $7.00 to the Buffalonian in care of Norton Union on the University campus. Bell Foundation Starts Heart Research Fund A full professorship in cardiovascular research has been established at the University's Medical School by the Bell Foundation. A pledge of a minimum $60,000, spaced over a five year period, will enable the University to establish a chair known as the Lawrence D. Bell Professorship of Cardiovascular Research in the Basic Sciences. Dr. Clifford C. Furnas, Chancellor of the University, in accepting the gift stated that the generosity of the Bell Foundation, "will enable the University to fill this position with an absolutely top-flight scientist." He said further that, "It will mean increased research in the fundamental causes of heart disease. The entire community has cause for gratitude to the Bell Foundation." Dr. Stockton Kimball, dean of the University's Medical School asserted that the grant from the Bell Foundation, "provides a highly important Yearbook editor presents first copy to Chancellor chair in the basic sciences, and takes us a big step further toward our goal of creating a medical school in Buffalo which will be second to none in the quality of both teaching and research." Pittsburgh James E. Peelle, director of athletics the University, was the principal speaker at the recent meeting of the Pittsburgh Area Alumni Club held at the Park-Schenley Restaurant in Pittsburgh. Mr. Peelle described the rejuvinated athletic program at the University and was very warmly received by the group. Mr. and Mrs. Kalman Goldring entertained the gathering at an informal reception in their home immediately after the dinner. at Westinghouse Grants $6000 to University The University is one of a selected group of colleges and universities which will receive grants from the Westinghouse Educational Foundation for defraying general operating costs. The University will receive $3,000 this year and the same amount in 1957. The grants are made as part of the Foundation's policy to give support to higher education on a broader basis. Rochester Approximately 150 enthusiastic alumni of the Rochester Area Alumni Club attended the recent dinner-dance held in honor of Chancellor and Mrs. Clifford C. Furnas. The affair, under the chairmanship of William P. Foster, LLB'33, was held at the Hotel Sheraton in Rochester. The program, which featured a speech by Chancellor Furnas on the future of the University, was very capably handled by toastmaster Harry L. Rosenthal, LLB '26, district attorney of Monroe County. The gathering was greeted by the president of the Rochester Club, Hyman J. Mandell, PhG'23, who also welcomed the guests and University representatives. Dr. Talman W. VanArsdale, Jr. and Mr. Theodore J. Siekmannalso spoke briefly on alumni affairs and University activities. The dance which followed the dinner was thoroughly enjoyed by all the alumni.

AbouttheCover The silent moccasin step of "where once the Indian Trod" has been replaced by the brogan of the steelworker, the noise of the air-hammer and the steady beat of the riveting machine. Pictured on our cover is another great stride the University of Buffalo is making along the road of progress. Over this area, the new home of the physics department, Hochstetter Hall,will soon reach its way toward the sky. Costing $750,000, this building will contain all the newest equipment and provide the most modern devices for research. This is more dramatic evidence of theforward steps being taken by your University to be of service to the people of the Niagara Frontier. Alumni �The University's Changing Face by DR. T. W. VAN ARSDALE, JR. Director of University Development and Planning Van Arsdale, BA '38, MA '40, EdD '54 Alumni and friends of the University who have visited Campus recently have been very generous in their praise of its "new look." Physically, the Campus is becoming more beautiful and more impressive almost day by day. For this, much credit is due indeed to the efficient and imaginative maintenance department. Then, too, the addition of the many varieties of flowering crab trees made possible by the Women's Club bids fair to make of the Campus a veritable showpJace. The completed remodeling of the auditorium of Hayes Hall into classrooms and the redecoration of Hayes Hall Lobby into a most impressive memorial to donors to the University are other examples of the changing face of our University Campus. Actually, these are but few of the many items which are part and parcel of the University's planning and progress toward the realization of adequate and impressive physical surroundings and facilities which will make possible caring for twice the present number of students within the next dozen years. An important and initial step in this planning now being realized is the construction of Hochstetter Hall, the new Physics Building, which is now being erected adjacent to the old Science Building. Other vital building needs which must be satisfied soon include a Health Sciences Center, which will house the School of Pharmacy, the School of Nursing, and the Biology Department of the College of Arts and Sciences; a Nuclear Research Center; a Women's Dormitory Unit; a new Service Building, and addi- tional classroom buildings. These facilities will be planned so that they are flexible and therefore capable of being adapted, if necessary, without major reconstruction in taking care of changing educational functions. Such buildings will be placed so that Campus travel distance for normal student activities will remain minimal and so that we can retain as much of the beauty of the Campus as possible. In other words, we shall strive for the optimum combination of utilitarianism and aesthetics. Most important, however, is the fact that the University administration sees these physical facilities for what they are: structures and environment which facilitate and make more effective the educational programs of the various divisions of the University. Buildings do not make a University. Students and faculty are the University; building and service facilities provide the means and climate for the teaching and learning processes. It is obviously impossible to predict precisely the composition of the student body and their educational needs ten to fifteen years hence. However, we doknow that there will be a material increase in the number of undergraduate students and a decided increase in the number of graduate students. The increase in undergraduate students means at least a proportionate increase in the number of student activities and the number of young people participating in them. The increase in graduate students immediately implies expanded research activities and, hence, added and improved research fa- cilities. Undoubtedly, the number of evening students will also increase materially. Further, and very important indeed, will be a marked increase in the University's services to the community, both culturally and intellectually. In seeking to meet the needs occasioned by a doubled enrollment and expanded services generally, the University administration is seeking the very best counseling it can from professional sources, faculty, students, and administration. From such counseling and interim planning, it hopes and believes it can arrive at a master plan which will be both flexible and adequate. Naturally, realization of such a plan means that the money must be secured somehow. The University, therefore, for its major additions to physical facilities must seek the assistance of the community-at-large, business and industry, individual friends and foundations. To a very greater extent than is usually realized, the success with which the University attracts such gifts is directly influenced by the interest and participation of the alumni body. Individuals and organizations from whom the University might expect support in the future will more likely be interested if the University can readily demonstrate a high percentage of annual alumni support through such fund media as the Alumni Loyalty Fund, the Annual Participating Fund for Medical Education, the Annual Dental Education Participating Fund and similar annual fund raising programs specifically designed to support the on-going educational programs. Bulletin 3 �Polish Room is Dedicated in Library A Polish Room housinga collection of Polish literary and art works was recently dedicated in Lockwood Memorial Library on the University campus. The room is designed to serve as a center of Polish culture with displays consisting of photographs of Polish buildings and scenes and various historical documents. The opening was a highlight of the annual meeting of the American Council of Polish Cultural Clubs which took place on the campus. The meetings, which were open to the public, attracted delegates, guests and visitors from all over the country. Keynote speaker for the dedication was Dr. George N. Shuster, president of Hunter College. Buffalo Artist Designs Room Joseph Mazur, an artist who specializes in stained glass, was responsible for the decoration of the room. Stained glass panels representing famous Polish authors and musicians are located in the windows at the end of the room and give the visitor the impression that he is entering an area designed for quiet meditation. The room is tastefully furnished with deep, soft leather chairs and tables, cabinets and desks of blond mahogany. All of the furniture was also designedby Mr. Mazur. Dr. James Heslin, assistant director of the library, stated that all of the furnishings and exhibits were donated by various The Town Hall of Poznan, Poland St. Teresa Church in Wilno, Poland organizations and individuals interested in the preservation of Polish culture. Cabinets along one wall of the room contain an exhibit of various Polish historical documents donated by Sattler's department store. The collectioncontains documents written by famous kings of old Poland. Some of the letters and proclamations date back to the 16th century. Also availablefor inspection are photographs of various Polish cities as they were before the Wermacht of Adolph Hitler decimated Poland. We have pictured on this page some of the items in that collection. Polish Patriot Honored In addition to the main purpose of providing a center for the deposit of these documents, the room was opened as a feature of the Centennial Anniversary of the death of Adam Mickiewicz. Adam Mickiewicz, acclaimed the greatestp Polish literary figure of all time, is much revered by the Polish people, not only for his poetry, drama and prose, but also for A General View of Lwow, Poland 4 (Coat. Pg. 4, Cot. 2) Alumni �The Nuclear Research Center has made progress since the last report which appeared in these pages. Possibly not the type of progress which makes headlines but certainly headway. Dr. Phillips and Dr. Klaiber of the Physics Department have drafted rough drawings which indicate what the center should consist of if it is to meet the re- quirements of industry and the University. In addition, we have been fortunate in securing the collaboration of Dr. R. G. Nickolls, principal physicist of the Cornell Aeronautical Laboratory. Dr. Nickolls served a two year period at the AEC's Los Alamos Laboratories in New Mexico. Artist's conception of swimming poolreactor similar to that proposed for University campus Local Industry Interested Industry on its part continues to wrestle with the problem of evaluating just what the center will mean to its respectivefield of business. It is especially noteworthy that the Bell Aircraft Corp. has entered into a contract agreement with a top-flightconsulting firm, Nuclear Science and Engineering of Pittsburgh. This firm, together with its consulting specialists, will help Bell Aircraft evaluate the applicability of nuclear techniques to its present program as well as the potential Nuclear Reactor ry application of Bell's existing technical manpower and facility capabilities in the JAMES C. EVANS Spec/a/Assistant to the Chancello- atomic energy field. Once, therefore, a program looking to the future has been brought into focus, then at that time will it be possible to determine the relationship between what the NuclearResearch Center has to offer as against Bell's needs. You really might say that in substance this is what is presently going on with other industrial concerns as well. There is no question but that the University's role of "being a catalyst" has started the ball rolling. This coming fall we look forward to conducting a nuclear symposium and it is our hope that the papers which will be given by leading scientists will be of particular interest to industry, covering such subject material as effect of radiation on materials and the use of neutrons as an analytical tool. as national interest has become evident in the University's Carbon Conferences so should interest develop in the timely subject of nuclear science. Just AEC Approval Necessary When it comes to the question of actually starting the project one has to look ahead and then work backward. Let's say that the "reactor goes critical" in the spring of 1957.This would assume, therefore, that the building program had taken at least a year. Prior to this, however, it is necessary to go through a very complicated and detailed period within which a presentation is prepared for submittal to the Safeguards Committee of the AEC. This committee is the final judgeas to the merits of the presentation with particular emphasis being given to the subject of public health and safety. Should it take five to six months to secure approval (which is in the form of a construction permit) it is easy to see that the quicker we can resolve all of our present problems, just that much sooner will the center become a useful tool. University Plans Nuclear Training As demand for technical manpower trained in the field of nuclear energy be- gins to exert itself here on the Niagara Frontier the University plans to be ready to meet this emergencyand with this in mind is already giving thought to the manner in which undergraduate and graduate nuclear training would be con- ducted. Of further importance is the apprecia- tion that with the center becoming a reality, possibilities for the various divisions and departments of the University to participate in AEC research contracts will become immeasurably enhanced. So will the prestige of the University. Bulletin 5 �ReflectionsoftheDirector Recently upon leaving an alumni club meeting, the thought occurred to me that here was a splendid example of a successful alumni meeting. It had been a pleasure to attend, and I asked myself just what was it that had made it successful. Well, I had to admit that first of all, it fulfilled the social requirements. The host and hostess for the meeting at a private home were cordial, friendly, cultured and made everyonefeel at home. Incidentally, their home was lovely and reflected the owner's good taste. It was set on spacious grounds which made the welcome complete. The group represented a cross section of professional people in a small city Doctors, Dentists, Lawyers, Pharmacists, Educators, Businessmen, Social Workers and Housewives. Their common bond of affiliation was to a University which aided them in reaching their life goals. They were interested in the progress of the University. They were interested in preserving, maintaining, developing and improving their University because by honoring and serving it, they not only — THEODORE J.

Following the dedication, a symposium on "Mickiewicz and the West" was held. The symposium drew six professors of Polish literature from universities throughout the United States to establish chairs of Polish language and literature to help integrate the rich Polish culture with our own. John W. served themselves, but gave expression to their own altruistic hopes of serving the present and future generations of youth. As representative products of education, the University can point to them as —"These aremy jewels." By keeping alumni together, the University keeps a segment of its family in contact or in rapport with the student body, the administration and the faculty. No group can better represent the University in the community than its alumni. However, no group, even such a successful one as mentioned above, can exist without an objective or common goal. Their goal can be illustrated by two plaques in the local schools. These record the scholarships presented by the club to Gembala of Chicago, newly- elected president of the Council, in lining a future program indicated that the Council's primary objective will be to first help its members and people to become acquainted with Polish culture and then to show them ways of sharing it with others. The University takes great pride in the fact that it has been chosen as the home for this extremely important cultural center. All alumni are invited to visit the new room and examine the various exhibits housed there. Eugene F.

Alumni 6 �Carlos C. Alden 1866—1955 by JACOB D. HYMAN Dean, School of Law A great figure in the life of the University of Buffalo School of Law and in the legal world of Western New York, passed from the scene on August 4, 1955, with the death of Carlos Coolidge Alden. In his fifty years of teaching at the Law School, thirty-two of them as Dean, Dr. Alden was mentor to an estimated 70% of the attorneys and half of the judgesin this area. Long years of devotion to teaching are not uncommon. What is uncommon is the ability in the course of teaching over so long a period to win and retain an affection and respect which never flag with the passing of the years. Dr. Alden was called to the deanship of the University of Buffalo School of Law in 1904. At that time he was completing ten years of teachingat New York University Law School and carrying on an extensive and successful trial practice in New York City. His close association with Dean Austin Abbott of that school led to a series of scholarly works in the field of New York Practice and Procedure, which made Dr. Alden one of the State's outstanding authorities. The only interruption in his service to the Law School was his year as counsel to Governor Charles Evans Hughes in 1909. The focus of his interest in the law is indicated by the fact that one of his out- Bulletin standing contributions to the profession, outside of the Law School, and one of which he was justly proud, was the organization of the Buffalo Legal Aid Bureau. After helping to found it in 1912, he served as its president from 1918 to 1950. Dr. Alden's career was punctuated by a series of memorable public tributes. The latest of these took place on November 1, 1954, when the University of Buffalo Law School Alumni Association tendered the Doctor a luncheon to signalize his retirement from teaching. The principal speaker at the luncheon, Frank G. Raichle, Jr., opened his remarks with the following statement: "This remarkable turnout of judges, lawyers, civic leaders and friends constitutes a more eloquent tribute to our guest of honor than could thewords of any speaker. I know of no man in my time who has deserved or received a finer tribute. Dr. Alden, the size and enthusiasm of this gathering evidences the high esteem and warm affection in which you are held by those of us who still like to consider ourselves your boys and girls and the high regard in which you are held by every one in this community." A characteristic of Dr. Alden's per- sonality was his warm affection for all of those with whom he came in contact. His unfailing devotion to his students has made an indelible impression on the entire community. Similarly, in his later years he never failed to speak with warmth about the kindness with which Buffalo had welcomed him and the friendliness he had always found in his adopted city. In summarizing the enduring impact of Dr. Alden upon the Law School, it seems to repeat what I said at the luncheon: 'The size and spirit of this gathering, and the enthusiasm of the Alumni who organized it, impressively witness the impact that Dr. Alden has had on the community as a man and as a teacher. It would not be fitting for me to try to add to what has been said on his behalf of those who have known Dr. Alden so much longer than I have been privileged to. But this much may with propriety be said: that the knowledge of Dr. Alden's half-century of devoted service both to the promotion of justice and to the growth of his students will always strengthen the Law School's dedication to those high pur- fitting ' poses." 7 �MR.

These boilers develop 100,000,000 lbs. of steam during the year. Pictured below are some oF the machines used to maintain the green lawns on the campus. Approximately 170 acres of grass must be cut periodically. �itenance Department This is the second in a series of pictorial stories designed to acquaint the alumni with the various departments of the University. This issue focuses the spotlight on a relatively unknown division of the University, the Maintenance Department. Under the direction of Mr. Gerald F. MacKay, Director of the Physical Plant, a hard working force of men and women is charged with the responsibility of maintaining the 176 acres of ground and buildings which comprise the University of Buffalo. This task of maintenance is one of tremendous proportions involving a multitude of operations and requiring a variety of equipment. It ranges from the replacement of a burned out light bulb to the erection of a new wall. Some examples of the various services performed by the department will illustrate the complexity and diversified nature of the hundreds of items requiring maintenance. When old man winter arrives upon the University scene, he invariably brings with him a great deal of snow. Have you ever wondered who keeps the sidewalks shoveled and the roadways clear when we have a big snow storm? Maintenance must clear 73^ miles of sidewalk, two miles of private roadway and parking area for 2500 cars between the hours of 11:00 P.M. and 8:00 A.M. so that students and faculty can get to and from classrooms during the school day. How about heating the various buildings on campus during the winter? A central power plant with three tremendous steam boilers heats every building on campus. Steam heat is carried to the various buildings by a series of heating tunShown here is Ihe central maintenance office. The panel in the background holds the order sheets for various work being done throughoutthe University. nels below the ground. Over a mile of tunnel is serviced by the department. Approximately 5000 tons of coal are used to generate the necessary heat. All of these operations are carried on by the Maintenance Department. Somebody must sweep the floors and wash the windows. The department used 2,820 gallons of floor soap, 9,180 lbs. of sweeping compound and 1,293 gallons of floor wax just to keep the various buildings on campus looking clean and neat throughout the year. Many of our alumni have commented on the beauty of the University campus. Keeping the trees, shrubs and lawns in condition requires a great deal of time and attention. To maintain the campus grounds, it was necessary to spread 3000 yards of top soil; 1700 lbs. of grass seed was planted; 45 tons of fertilizer was used; approximately eighty acres of lawn and all trees on campus were sprayed to control plant diseases and to control weeds; replacement of and addition to existing shrubs and trees involved the planting of 249 trees, 344 evergreens and 283 shrubs. There are a great number of light fixtures on campus. The Maintenance Department replaced over 14,000 light bulbs last year. To keep those bulbs burning brightly the department must keep in repair over 500 miles of electrical wiring. The list is an endless one. We have attempted to delineate the tremendous scope of this operation to give ouralumni an indication of the sizeable growth of their University. As the University grows in size and scope, so do the functions of this department. All in all, we think you'll agree, it's a big job.

Alumni 10 �BULLS OPEN SEASON WITH SPLIT hamer's split-T attack along the ground, picked up 161 yards rushing. Joe Kubisty, who hit 17 of 30 passes, engineered an air attack amounting to another 177 yards. The Bulls grand total yardage was 338 yards, enough to win nine out of ten ball games,as opposed to Cortland's 203 yards overall. Kubisty led the nation in pass completions and end Dan Stanley led in receptions. Stanley caught seven of "Bul- UNIVERSITY OF BUFFALO FOOTBALL SQUAD—I9SS. The "comebacking" University of Buffalo football Bulls split even in the first two games of their 1955 Intercollegiate schedule. Demonstrating plenty of ground gaining ability, both overland and through the air, U.8., nevertheless, dropped a 28-7 decision to a very strong Cortland team in the September 24 lid lifter at Rotary Field. The score, however, should not be con- strued as an accurate indication of the difference in ability. It was the Bull's mistakes, attributable to inexperience and lack of pre-season full scrimmages, rather than any pronounced Cortland superiority, that made the difference in the score. By the same token, similar mistakes made less often, prevented U.B. from running their second opponent, Brockport State, right off the gridiron during the course of the 26-0 victory scored at Brockport Saturday, October 1. That win not only evened up the season, but avenged last year's 19-6 humiliation suffered at the hands of a similarity personnelled Brockport eleven. Statistically speaking, the University of Buffalo enjoyed a vast superiority in defeat. The Bulls with Dick Stuck, Dick Doll, Jim Viterna, Paul Snyder and Captain Pete Rao operating Coach Offen- A Day They Will Remember It was indeed a day to be long remembered by the more than 1600 freshmen be- ginning their college careers at the University of Buffalo. Overtones of anxiety could be heard everywhere as these enthusiastic neophytes of higher learning crowded into Clark Memorial Gymnasium for the Convocation ceremonies. This marked the first day of the hectic orientation week for incoming students. The convocation was highlighted by an address of welcome by ChancellorClifford C. Furnas and the introduction of the students to the representatives of each division of the University by Jack M. Deeringer, EdM'4B, EdD's3, Dean of Students. Mr. Theodore J. Siekmann, EdM'47, Director of Alumni Relations, welcomed the freshmen on behalf of the University of Buffalo Alumni. The remainder of the week was devoted to campus tours, divisional meetings, physical examinations and registration. A barn dance and splash party were the first of the many social activities that were planned for that week. The climax of the seven day program was the campus open house and pep rally on Friday night preceding the year's first football game, University of Buffalo vs Cortland State, Saturday afternoon at Rotary Field. An integral part of orientation week for the freshmen and an activity which occurs frequently during every student's tenureat the University, is registration. Registration figures for the year 1955-1956 have far exceeded those of past years let" Joe's heaves. At Brockport, U.B. stayed almost exclusively to running plays, utilizing the split-T and option series almost to perfection in running up a total of 258 yards. Another 57 yards gained passing put the Bulls total offense over 300 yards for the second week in a row. Stuck, Rao and Doll were the Bulls most consistent gainers, aided especially in the second half by number 2 quarterback Bill McGarva who demonstrated the option "keep it" play for several sizable gains. The Bulls lost one 90 yard touchdown run of an intercepted pass because of a clipping penalty, and the team lost several additional scoring chances because of similar ovcranxiousness that caught the official's eye. Defensively, U.B. improved tremendously over the Cortland game, holding Brockport to a net gain of 59 yards rushing and passing. for freshmen, graduate students, professional schools, Millard Fillmore College and total University enrollment. It is interesting to gaze back on previous years and visualize the growth of the University in terms of registration. The freshman registration 20 years ago was a mere 497 compared to this year's 1350 (approx). Back in 1915the total registration for the University of Buffalo was only 924 students. In 1935 that total jumped to 3964, and this year the approximateregistration for the entire student body is 9250.

Homecoming 1955 "Homecoming 1955" at the University of Buffalo combined the best elements of all the television spectaculars rolled into one and draped itself all over the University campus. Laughter, gaiety, suspense, action and comedy were wrapped in a panorama of activity that many of the Alumni will remember for years to come. Due to the never ceasing efforts of the committee on Homecoming activities, the day's events ran smoothly and swiftly. The members of the committee included Messers. Edward Andrews, James Decot, Nickolas Kish, Charles Perrival, Harold Rosamilia and John Starr. Representatives of the General Alumni Board, many of whom had traveled from far distant cities, met with Chancellor Clifford C. Furnas for a morning coffee hour and luncheon to discuss various Alumni activities. Over 90 of these Alum- ni leaders heard Chancellor Furnas extend a welcome to all of the Alumni generally and express his firm convictions concerning the future development of the University. Illustrating the growth and vitality of the University were the ceremonies dedicating the new Physics Building at the University, Seymour H. Knox, Chairman of the University Council, assisted Dr. Furnas spread the mortar for the cornerstone dedication of this newest of University buildings. Hochstetter Hall, named after the late Ralph Hochstetter, is proceeding at a rapid pace and will be ready for use within a year. The football game at Rotary Field on the campus saw a crowd of over 4000 Alumni and students thrill to one of the hardest fought and suspense-filled contests ever played at the field.

SEND TO OFFICE OF INFORMATION SERVICES, 372 HAYES HALL, UNIVERSITY OF BUFFALO, BUFFALO 14, N. Y. City Buffalo, playing this year for the first time under the leadership of newly appointed head-football coach Dick Offenhamer, brought the capacity crowd to theirfeet time and again as they knocked on the touchdown door on numerous occasions. Sparked by the running of Pete Rao, and Dick Stuck and the passing of were unable to Joe Kubisty, the Bulls pound across the necessary tally. The Bulls, however, held Hobart to a scoreless tie and ended a fourteen game winning streak of the Statesmen. The end of the game was celebrated with the introduction of a new institution at the University. All Alumni were invited to meet the Chancellor at the "Tunk" following the game. The Faculty Club was the scene of the party where over 300 Alumni availed them- selves of an opportunity to alleviate throats parched by constant yelling at the game. Alumni present were vociferous in their praise of the "Tunk" and it appears to be an affair that will be repeated on every Homecoming Day. The University Club was the site of the "Homecoming" dinner and dance. The orchestra of Tommy Rizzo provided the musical background for the Alumni who overflowed the Club to make the affair a sellout success. "Homecoming 1955" ended in the late hours of the morning with the cheers of Alumni still ringing across the deserted playing field. Although it is said of all "Homecoming Days" it appears safe to repeat that old but true phrase, "It was the greatest ever."

Do you think it is more readable and attractive? Also we have tried to give our readers more complete stories regarding Alumni activities and University news rather than the short, brief items we have run in the past. We think these are changes for the better. Our object is to make this magazine a publication that you will enjoy reading.

Alumni �The Call to Serve Chancellor accepts position of Assistant Secretary of Defense for Research and Development It was with regret but also with pride that the University's Council last month granted a leave of absence to Chancellor Clifford C. Furnas permitting him to assume his duties of Assistant Secretary of Defense for Research and Development. Dr. Furnas, who has worked closely with military research agencies since the early days of World War 11, was offered the appointment by Defense Secretary Charles E. Wilson in early October and assumed his duties this month. Dr. Furnas is uniquely qualified for the position of Assistant Secretary of Defense for Research and Development. Research has been his principal field throughout his professional life, beginning with research work at the Illinois Steel Company. From 1926 to 1931, he conducted research on metallurgical processes at the U. S. Bureau of Mines at Minneapolis. In the latter year, Dr. Furnas joined the Yale University faculty as Associate Professor in Chemical Engineering and maintained a number of industrial consulting connections. In 1941 and 1942, he worked for the National Defense Research Committee, coordinating a large research and development program. He was appointed by Curtiss-Wright in 1943 as director of itsresearch laboratory in Buffalo. Their laboratory was given to Cornell University in 1946 at which time Dr. Furnas became Executive Vice-President and Director of Cornell Aeronautical Laboratory. He was appointed Chancellor of the University of Buffalo on April 30, 1954 and took office on September 1,1954. Dr. Furnas is also widely known for his educational and literary endeavors. He is the author of a large number of educational and technical articles as well as several books including "The Next Hundred Years", a Book-of-the-Month Clubselection in January 1936, and "Man, Bread and Destiny", written with his wife, Sparkle M. Furnas. A recent article entitled, "A Look at the Next 75 Years", shows how the world and society will change as a result of the great strides in technological progress. Underthe guidance of Chancellor FurUniversity has launched a broad program of expansion and development. His inspiration has helped to brighten the spirit of the students, faculty and alumni. nas, the He and Mrs. Furnas have traveled to many points in the nation meeting and talking with University alumni. At a recent alumni gathering, the Chancellor promised to keep in close contact with the University and hoped his return would not seem too far away. As Alumni President, Mearl D. Pritchard, PhG'2l, said, "The alumni of the University wish Chancellor and Mrs. Furnas 'God Speed' in their journey and express pride in being a part of the institution which they represent." Chancellor Honored The faculty and the students honored Chancellor Furnas during his last two weeks at the University prior to his departure to Washington. The faculty paid their respects to Dr. and Mrs. Furnas on November 19 at the first Chancellor's Ball. The Ball was held in Norton Union under the sponsorship ofthe Women's Club and the Newcomer's Club. Mrs. Henry M. Woodburn was chairman of the affair. The proceeds from the dance became part of the Scholarship Endowment Fund. Chancellorand Mrs.Furnas were guests of the students at a reception in Norton Union on November 22, designated as Chancellor Furnas Day on campus. Anthony Cassetta, chairman of the affair, Sal Carrallo and Harold Reiss, president and vice president of the Board of Managers conducted the day's events. Bulletin 3 �Dr. Puffer Named Acting Chancellor DR. PUFFER Council also names Puffer and Anderson vice-chancellors DR. ANDERSON On November 21 the Council of the University approved the appointments of Dr. Claude E. Puffer as vice chancellor for business affairs and Dr. G. Lester Anderson as vice chancellor for educational affairs. Dr. Puffer, University Comptroller and Treasurer, was recently named acting chancellor of the University during the fourteen month leave of absence of Dr. Clifford C. Furnas. Dr. Puffer joined the UBfaculty in 1938 as an instructor in economics. Subsequently, he was named Assistant Dean of the School of Business Administration and later appointed Acting Dean. He held the position of Dean of Administration from 1945 to 1951 when he was named treasurer and comptroller. Under his direction, the Treasurer's office has been reorganized to keep pace with the overall expansion program of the University. Dr. Anderson, who was recently on a partial leave of absence serving as executive directorof the New York State Committee for the White House Conference on Education, has had a wide range of ex- perience in the teaching and school administrative field. He held the position of dean of teacher education at the College of the City of New York before becoming dean of administration at the University of Buffalo in 1951. Also, effective immediately, are the appointments of Dr. Merton W. Ertell, BS(Bus)'3B, MBA'49, as assistant vice chancellor for educational affairs and the James C. Evans as general manager ofprojUniversity Nuclear Research Center ect. Dr. LeWin Presents Sign to University A highly desirable addition to the Uniscene was presented by Dr. and Mrs. Thurber LeWin in the form of a 6' bv 9' sign board. The new bulletin board is designed to announce campus events and is lighted so it can be seen readily at night. The picture at the right shows Chancellor Furnas thanking Dr. LeWin, MD '21, for his gift. The sign contains the first message that was entered after its erection. versity 2 Alumni �HIGHLIGHTS FROM CHANCELLOR'S ANNUAL REPORT This month Chancellor Clifford C. Furnas submitted to the University Council his annual report for the academic year 1954-1955. Included in this report are the impressions of Dr. Furnas after his first year in office. The highlights of his report and those most interesting to alumni, include these points: (1) Athletic program; (2) Publications by University faculty; (3) Financial status, including increase in tuition and faculty salaries; (4) Increase in industrial financial support; (5) Appointment of Mr. Paul Schweiker as Consulting Architect for the University in connection with the building program. By way of introduction and as a summary of his first year impressions, Chancellor Furnas stated, in part: "In general, there is a strong though nebulous feeling on the campus and in the community which senses, though does nor yet quite define, the challenge of a new phase in American life and along with it a new phase in American higher education, and particularly in the role of the urban university. The problems and the possibilities are not yet crystallized, but they are being thought about and discussed. There is a changing and dynamic situation in our life, calling for the final realization of a great American dream—the opportunity for higher education for all who are willing and qualified. The University and community are responding to the challenge. The response is not yet at full power—we are proceeding at probably half speed. The next decade will probably ' tell the tale of the extent and direction of that response. As I see it, there is no visible limitation to the level of greatness to which the University of Buffalo may rise in meeting its responsibilities." Rational Athletic Program The University of Buffalo has recently launched a five-year athletic program in field representative athletic teams. In his report Chancellor Furnas had this to say of that program: "A collegiate athletic program is often a major bone of contention in the university circles which encompasses students, faculty and alumni. There are a few who would de-emphasize athletics out of existence. At the other extreme are those who seem to feel that the major, if not the sole, reason for the existence of a university is the production of winning football teams. The majority, however, adopt the rational and simple middle-of-the-road attitude that athletic competition is a valuable and legitimate extracurricular activ- order to ity and that it should be carried on in such a manner as to contribute to a well rounded education but not unduly overshadow other phases of college life. This seems to be a reasonable philosophy and one in which I concur .... A proper athletic program is one which is recognized as a Good Thing in which the contestants have a chance of winning a fair share of the time. This is a pattern which I hope to establish and maintain at the University of Buffalo." are available and new ones are being found. One of the most encouraging signs is the changing attitude of industry during the last few years. Many strong industrial organizations are beginning to give very substantial support to private institutions of higher education. This constructive attitude is already having its effect and undoubtedly will increase in the future." Publications "In order to handle the education of the future complicated world, I visualize that we will develop along the lines of various centers, or sub-centers, in which there is a natural interlocking of the disciplines, for joint use of facilities as well as of teaching and research talents. For instance, there is a very definite plan for a Fine Arts Center which will incorporate in one building, or a small group ofbuildings, music, drama, and the visual arts. Another center underconsideration would involve the enlargement of the present Medical-Dental building to include the functions of Nursing, Pharmacy and Biology. Another natural grouping into an informal center might be considered the physical sciences—pure and applied— that is, chemistry, physics, engineering and mathematics. Anothernatural grouping might well be the social sciences in the broad sense—that is, education, social work, business administration The facilities for student life outside the classroom form another natural coordinate-planning unit—dormitories and so- ' 'One of the more important aspects of the face the University presents to the world is its list of publications. Members ofthe University family had eleven books published during the past year." In addition to the booksthe Chancellor referred to the staff's 340 articles in scientific, technical and scholarly magazines covering a wide range of subject matter. Financial Status "The financial status of the University is satisfactory but not glamorous. Financially we remain sound, but we do so only bykeeping our operations on a more austere status than is conducive to best accomplishment. We are running a fairly substantial deficit in our operating budget, but it is not dangerous." The Chancellor noted that the operating income of the University during the academic year 1954-1955 was $6,669,919-66. This included various gifts and grants, payments for sponsored research income from auxiliary enterprises such as residence halls, cafeterias, etc. The expenditures for the same period were $6,719,042.06, leaving an operating deficit of $49,122.40. A strong force "making financial problems increasingly difficult, although they have not yet come to the point of being critical, is the general effect of inflation, plus the increasing competition for topgrade instructional and research personnel. We must soon be in a position of making some substantial merit increases if we are to hold many of our better faculty members. "A step which immediately suggests itself as a means of bringing the financial operations into proper balance is an increase in tuition. Serious consideration is being given to such an increase beginning with the academic year 1955-1956 'Despite the fact that substantial amounts of money will be required for ' .. both capital and operating expenditures, I do not consider that the picture is overly discouraging. Many sources of support A Glimpse at the Future .. cial and athletic events .... "In connection with the proper adaption of the physical plant of the future to the various functions as they evolve, we have been fortunate in being able to retain the services of Mr. Paul Schweiker as Consulting Architect for the Univer- sity." Conclusion "All in all, I feel it is correct to say that the University is approximately on the correct course, that there is a strong wind and good sailing, but that it is on a voyage of discovery. We do not know what weather or lands may lie ahead, but we may view the future course with confidence and, at least as far as I am concerned, with pleasure." The Chancellor's annual report for the academic year 1954-1955 is now available in the University Development Office, 143 Hayes Hall. Bulletin 5 �CAMPUS IS HOST TO VISITING EDUCATORS FROM FOREIGN LANDS speaking before civic and church groups, attending cultural and social activities, and participation in many special programs. A special feature of the program here was a four day tour of Central New York visiting educational institutions and industries. The tour included a visit to the Corning Glass Works, Cornell University, Hobart College and the Geneva Pub- lic Schools, Eastman Kodak, and the School for the Blind at Batavia. Other highlights of the program included a tour of the city sponsored by the Junior Chamber of Commerce, a trip to Niagara Falls and Old Fort Niagara, a weekend in a rural community sponsored by the Lawton's Grange, participation in B-I-E Day (Business, Industry, Education), and visits For the second year the University of Buffalo's School of Education has served as host to a group of secondary school teachers from abroad. Participating in the International Teacher Education Program, twenty-two teachers from ten different countries (Mexico, Panama, Germany, Italy, Belgium, India, Pakistan, Viet Nam, Burma and Malaya) were on campus from September 18th through December 20th. Two other universities, the University of SouthernCalifornia and the University of Oklahoma, also parti- cipatcd in the program which is sponsored jointly by the United States Office of Education and the Department of State. Dr. Theodore E. Johnson, School of Education, acted as coordinator for the program at the University of Buffalo and was assisted by Mrs. William H.

Alumni �What about financial aid for University of Buffalo students ... do many students apply each year and how are they helped? At the present timethe University helps students meet their financial needs in four ways: through scholarships, loans, parttime work contract campus jobs and offcampus jobs, and through a deferred payment tuition plan. Financial Aid for Students Scholarships are awarded by the Committee on Scholarships and Loans, of which Dr. Leon J. Gauchat is chairman, to help worthy students attend the University of Buffalo who would be unable to obtain a college education without such aid. Along with demonstrated need, the requirements include purposefulness and high scholastic ability. In addition to these general qualifications many scholarships carry specific requirements which applicants must meet, such as leadership qualities. The concept of financial need as a primary factor in making awards is one which is achieving wider acceptance throughout the country. Many colleges and universities, and new funds such as the National Merit Scholarship Corporation give honorary awards which recognize the scholastic achievement of students who do not have financial need, and therefore do not include financial remuneration, or only a token amount. The University of Buffalo awards such honorary scholarships to outstanding freshman applicants. These do not include a financial grant. At the present time there are approximately 87 funds from which University of Buffalo students receive scholarships and 24 funds from which they receive loans. This includes funds which are specified for students in professional and graduate schools, and funds which are awarded by outside groups and organizations such as the Buffalo Foundation. Last year, out of a total of 563 applications, 320 students received aid totaling over $77,000*. $17,000 of this amount was in loans and the remainder in scholarships of various kinds. This constituted approximately 5% of the full time student body, and although it was an increase in the number over previous year, it was not an increase in the percentage of the student body aided. Increase in enrollment, increase in living expenses, and the availability of part time work all affect the number of students who apply for aid *In addition to this amount approximately 235 students received over $175,000 in aid through the various N. Y. State scholarships. Bulletin Chairman of the University's Committee On Scholarships and Loans, Dr. Leon J. Gauchal, DDS '19, confers with three oF the recipients of University scholarships. each year. Unfortunately, the funds available are not increasing in proportion to the amount of aid needed by students. The University is continuing to work on the development of new scholarship funds, but we have a long way to go before we are able to help all our deserving students who need financial aid. Two other services supplement aid to students through scholarships and loans. The first is in the area of part-time work for students. The Scholarship Office is working on a plan to organize parttime campus jobs for students on a work contract basis so that a student may contract his services in a specified department for the school year for a job which will fit in with his class and activity schedules. This assures the student of at least a minimum amount of moneyearned from this source during the two semesters, and will enable him to plan his finances more accurately. At the same time, this plan assures the employing department that an area of work responsibility will be covered for the school year. Dormitory students, in particular, are interested in campus jobs, and since most scholarship recipients, as well as countless other students work part-time to help defray the cost of their education, part-time work is a very important area in financial aid to students. The second supplemental service to students in the area of financial aid is the deferred payment plan for tuition and dormitory fees. Information about this plan is available through the Bursar's Office. Arrangements maybe made to pay tuition and dormitory fees in monthly installments. This enables students, such as those whose part time work pays for their educational expenses, to pay at a rate which best suits their individual needs. Despite these latter two areas of the student financial aid picture, there still remains the fact that manydeserving students are unable to meet the cost of their education. A large number of students who find it necessary to work 20 or more hours per week if they are to meet their financial obligations, cannot receive aid because the necessary funds are not available. With the University's enrollment expected to continue to increase in the future and the fact that more able high school students than ever are being encouraged to seek higher education by new funds which are being developed nationally, it will become increasingly necessaryfor the University to add to its avail- able scholarship and loan funds. 7 �Looking info the recently dedicated Polish Room.

The library has often been called "the heart" of a university. Certainly, it is the reservoir from which students and faculty alike draw an unfailing supply of the recorded wisdom of the past and present. Lockwood Memorial Library, dedicated on May 15, 1935, is the central library on the campus of the University of Buffalo. This handsome and impressive building, a gift of the late Thomas B. Lockwood, a Buffalo attorney, and his wife Marion Birge Lockwood, contains at present more than 240,000 volumes, and this number is increasing rapidly. Best of all—since Lockwood Memorial Library is intended to be more than a building in which "precious and untouchable items'' are preserved —each year also sees an increase in student use of the reading rooms and reference facilities. The community outside the University, as exemplified by the founding of the Polish Room in the Library this past summer, is also enabled to participate in the resources of Lockwood Memorial Library. Included in the collections of the Library are such rare items: as, to mention only a few, a first folio of Shakespeare, printed in 1623; a first edition of Milton's Paradise Lost, printed in 1667, and a first edition of Boswell's The Life of Samuel Johnson, printed in 1791. From American literature, which is well represented, the Library has such rarities as the first edition of Emerson's Essays (1841); a first edition of Melville's Moby Dick (1851); and a first edition of Hawthorne's The Scarlet Letter (1850). These are merely a part of the literary treasures which were in the personal library of Mr. Lockwood and given by him to the University. The modern poetry collection in Lockwood Memorial Library has, under the direction of Charles D. Abbott, Director of University Libraries, grown into one of the most important repositories of manuscripts and worksheets of contemporary poets in existence today. Leading poets of our time have contributed to the collection rough drafts of poems, notebooks and files which reveal the many stages between scribbled lines and completed poems. The large number of biographers and poets who journey to the University throughout the year attests to the importance of this unusual collection. In the fall of 1950, through the generosity of Mrs. Margaretta F. Wickscr of Buffalo, Lockwood Memorial Library acquired the personal collection of James Joyce. In addition to the books which Joyce used in his working library, the collection also includes many of the notebooks, manuscripts and letters of the author. Scholars from all over the country and abroad have had occasion to use the priceless items in this collection. The privileges of the libraries of the University are extended to agroup known as the "Friends of the Library." The membership of this society is identified in the following catagories: student; alumni; associate membership, restricted to the teaching profession; full and life memberships. Memberships are available to the public in one of the above categories. The funds accruing from the Society enable the participants to make use of the special publications and activities offered to them by the Library. No library today can play a merely passive role. In the continuing growth of the University, the physical equipment and culturalresources, not only of Lockwood Memorial Library but of all the University libraries, comprising some 314,000 volumes, must be ready to assist the thousands of students in the fourteen divisions of the University. �Cleveland Punctuated by phone calls from rhe United and Associated Press, interrupted by Buffalo Courier Express reporters and photographers, the Cleveland Area Alumni Association met on October 14 at the Wade Park Manor Hotel in Cleveland, Ohio. It was the night of the announcement that Chancellor Clifford C. Furnas had been offered the position of Assistant Secretary of Defense for Research and De- velopment. Alumni Club President Robert H. Stockton, MD'4O, welcomed the Chancellor and 21 alumni, a group decimated by inclement weather. Chancellor Furnas gave a complete story of the present and future University plans. Ted Siekmann, Director of Alumni Relations, showed interesting movies of the University of Buffalo Campus.

In itself that record may not seem particularly imposing, but in as much as the Bulls have been decided underdogs in seven of their eight starts they have never failed to give an excellent account of themselves, even in defeat. Coach Dick Offenhamer's young and inexperienced team has come back strong after a dismal 1954 season to a point where only lack of depth on the squad, overanxiousness and plain bad luck prevented a far better won- lost record. U.B. lost to Cortland State, Western Reserve, Alfred and Brandeis. Only in the opening Cortland game were the Bulls outplayed. Against Reserve, Alfred, and Brandeis, the Bulls battled their heavily favored foes right to the wire before succumbing to superior manpower. TheBulls have scored brilliant if unexpected victories over Brockport and St. Lawrence, two more favored opponents and held Hobart, a small college powerhouse which was undefeated and untied in fourteen games, to a scoreless tie in this year's Homecoming game at Rotary Field. Only against McMaster University of Hamilton, Ontario and R.P.I, had U.B. been favored to win. In these games Offenhamer and Company made prophets out of the oddsmakers. Against McMaster U.B. demonstrated an almost incredible brand of precision football on a sloppy, rain soaked field in romping to its second victory of the season. Coach Offenhamer cleared his bench in the third quarter in an effort to keep the score down. After this game U.B. 12 ranked the best in the East in ground and pass defense. The Bulls suffered their first defeat since the opening game of the season to the Red Cats of Western Reserve. The score was not indicative of the closeness of the game as an errant pitchour and untimely fumbles led WR to the scores that won the game. U.B. went down fighting before a powerhouse Alfred University eleven. The Bulls held the Saxons to a 7-7 halftime tie and a 95 yard run of a kickoff by Dick Stuck of the Bulls was the sensational play of the day. The Bulls snapped their two game losing streak with a convincing victory over St. Lawrence at Canton, N. Y. It was U.B.'s most solid victory of the seasonas they were in command from the opening whistle. The Bulls, in defeat, played their most impressive game of the season against a Brandeis team that was afour touchdown favorite. The Judges staved off disaster by thwarting two last period U.B. attacks that reached inside the Judges ten yard line. The Bulls closed their football season with their most effective all-around performance as they repulsed Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, 45-0 before 1400 heroes at wintry Rotary Field. Those en- thusiastic spectators unanimously agreed that the first year of Chancellor Furnas' 5-year athletic program was a definite success.

After the ten year period, there will be no re- strictions on the use of either the principal or income. No event in the history of educational philanthropy has received or deserved more widespread publicity than the Ford Foundation grants announced in 1955- A grant of $210,000,000 is earmarked for 615 regionally accredited privately supported liberal arts and sciences colleges and universities in the United Statesto help them raise teachers' salaries. This grant supplements the $50,000,000 appropriated in the Spring of 1955 for teachers' salaries or other pressing academic needs. Another $200,000,000 is going to approximately 3500 privately supported hospitals to help them improve and extend their services to the public. A grant of $90,000,000 is for 42 privately supported medical schools to aid them in strengthening their in- struction. The schools receiving these grants were selected by an Advisory Committee on the basis of replies to questionnaires sent to everyregionally accredited,privately supported college and university in the country. The Committeeemphasized that "it did not attempt Bulletin to compare the cali- ber of these many different colleges, their general excellence or reputation. Indeed, our study confirms the belief so widely held that variety of excellence is a healthy aspect of our entire system of higher education, whether publicly or privately supported. This variety cannot be readily reduced to mathematical comparisons or scores." Aspects which have not been so widely publicized and which are of particular interest to university administrators their help to these institutions. Every college and university graduate must bear in mind that while industrial and business grants are of immeasurable help, colleges and universities will continue to move forward, will fulfill their functions completely, only when the graduates of these institutions continue to strengthen their link with Alma Mater and give both moral and financial support on a larger scale than heretofore." are these: There is no matching obligation for those colleges and universities receiving the grants in the winter of 1955The grant of the Ford Foundation does not affect the needs and opportunities for gift support, and particularly for expendable operating funds in other areas of the college's program, and help is still needed there now as much as before. Payment of the Ford grant will be spread over an 18 month period ending in June of 1957 and colleges will not be benefiting from the full annual income until June 1958. The increase in salaries are not likely to exceed 4%, or as it has been estimated,it will add $2.70per month to the teacher's paycheck. In analyzing the importance of the Ford grants let us keep in mind the excellent statement by Nils Y. Wessell, President of Tufts University: "The traditional friendsof our colleges and universities should be stimulated by what the Ford Foundation has done and increase Tuition and Salary Increase was pure coincidence that the UniItversity announced a tuition increase to pay for increased faculty salaries so close to the Ford Foundation announcement. The University decision to raise salaries 5% across the board had gone through most of the "channels" before anything had been heard of the Ford grant. And yet the two decisions do stem from the same thinking and do have a certain cause and effect relationship. The questions hovering in the minds of all concerned is why, with all the Ford money coming for faculty raises,should U. B. feel it necessaryto raise tuition fees? The answer is that the Ford gift, while extremely helpful in the long run, has little effectin the immediate future. For one thine, the gift hasn't been re(Continued on page 2, col. 1) 1 �Tuition and Salaries (Continued from page 1) ceived yet, and even when it is, it must be invested and only the income from the investment can be used to increase salaries Also, the Ford Foundation grants were calculated on the basis of salaries paid only to the liberal arts and science faculties, whereas,the University in meeting a general raise, has many others to think about—faculty members in the graduate schools, administrative personnel, librarians,technical and clerical employees. It has been estimated that the grant moneyinvested by U.B. will yield enough to pay a 4% salary increase of the personnel it covers. But when spread over all faculty and staff on the payroll, the Ford endowment income would support a raise of only 2%. To make good on an immediate 5% raise, the University has to raise money from other sources—i.e. National Gypsum Endows a Chair of American Enterprise declared that "the principles of the freeenterprise system are exemplified in Mr. Baker's career." The companyhe added, wished to sec the same principles fostered tuition fees. The tuition increase will be $50 per semester in all divisions of the University except for pre-clinical program in the School of Nursing for which there will only be an increase of $38.75-The tuition in the Millard Fillmore College will be increased from $19.25per credit hour to $22.00; the tuition rate for problems, tutorial and informal work in Millard Fillmore College and for tutorial work in the SummerSession will be $29-00per credit hour. For most ofthe divisions of the University, the tuition will be $350per semester, or $700per academic year. Actually, U.B.'s "reaction" is exactly sort of thing the Ford Foundation hoped it would be touching off. In making the grants, it said their purpose was not only to improve faculty salaries,but to "emphasize the need for further improvement." the In summing up the importance of additional aid to colleges and universities,I quote in part an article by Edward M. Cameron,Jr. of the New York Herald Tribune: "No one genuinely interested in higher education should feel that his gift of $25, $50or $100or more is no longer needed and that he can sit back complacently and with clear conscience say: 'Let Ford do it.* Though the urgent immediate need is partially and temporarily met, the duty and privilege of continued financial support to our colleges are still there, and the stirring challenge of the Ford gift should be met and matched proportionately by thousands of other con- , tributors both corporate and individual.'' 2 MELVIN H. BAKER in American enterprise A will be perpetually endowed by a made the of professorship to gift of $200,000 University Buffalo by the National Gypsum Com- pany. It will be known as the Melvin H. Baker Professorship of American Enterprise in honor of the chairman of the board of the company. In making the presentation, President Lewis R. Sanderson of National Gypsum in today's college students. Mr. Baker, son of a Tennessee tenant farmer,has in the past 30 yearsbuilt the National Gypsum Company into one of America's leading corporations. The grant will be invested as an endowment and the interest applied to the salary of the professor. Instruction will be primarily in the Schoolof Business Administration, but will include the teaching of additional students in other divisions of the University. The professor named to the post will be active in representing the University in the business community and will be responsible for engaging in research problems of Niagara Frontier business enterprise. Grant Awarded To Train Medical Teachers has been awarded four visiting faculty members from other A the University schools. "Those selected will participate in a by the grant of to $131,400 of Buffalo School of Medicine Commonwealth Fund of New York for the support of an initial three year experiment in the training of medical teachers. The University's School of Education and the College of Arts and Scienceswill participate with the Medical Schoolin conducting the project. The program, which will begin in September 1956, will be directed by a committee composed of representatives of the Schoolsof Medicine and Education, the College of Arts and Sciences,and the University administration. Dr. George E. Miller, assistant professor of medicine at ÜB, will serve as coordinator. Dr. Miller announced that the grant will provide for the participation in the project of four faculty members of the University's Medical School,andalso,for series of one yeartrainingprograms," Dr. Miller said.' 'During this period they will study the ways in which students learn, and how teachers may encourageor block that learning process. They will consider the factors which have influenced higher education in the past and present. They will learn something more of the methods of evaluating the outcomes of formal education and have opportunity to develop greater proficiency in the techniques of communication. They will devote attention to the medical student as an individual, and the influences which mold his development. Theseminar and conference approach to these problems will be complemented by active teaching in participating medical school departments," he stated.

"Deginning the observance of its 100th -L' anniversary, The Manufacturers and Traders Trust Company of Buffalo endowed $100,000 to the University of Buffalo to be used to establish a professorship of banking and finance. The endowment will beknown as the Manufacturers and Traders Trust Co. Chair of Banking and Finance. M and T Chairman Lewis G. Harriman said the gift is evidence of the bank's belief that "it is in the national interest that influential corporate institutions support higher education." The endowment, he added, is its contribution toward encouraging and improving the training of future business and banking leaders. Accepting the endowment on behalf of the University, Dr. Claude E. Pufferdeclared: "Theestablishmentofan endowed professorship at the University of Buffalo is unmistakable evidence of dedication to public service and good citizenship on the part of the Manufacturers & Traders Trust Company. "To provide the means for improved educational opportunities for the young people of this area is indeed a splendid way to celebrate 100 yearsof growth and prosperity. "The University of Buffalo is deeply grateful for the financial assistance and for the recognition accorded by the gift. The chair in money and banking will be of great assistance in the growth and development and the maintenance of high standards by the University." Dent Foundation Professorship is Gift to University A $90,000 grant for the establishment of -^ *- a professorship in clinical research in cardiovascular diseases was received by the University from the Harry Dent Family Foundation Inc. Mr. Dent was the founder of the Durez Plastics Company, now owned and operated by the Hooker Electrochemical Corporation. ChancellorClifford C. Furnas,in announcingreceipt of the gift, said that the School of Medicine will apply the grant over a five-year period, $12,000 annually for the professorship and $6000each year to cover additional expenses in conducting the research. The new professorship, recently filled by the appointment of Dr. Bulletin David G. Greene,will be known as the Harry M. Dent professorship of clinical research in cardiovascular diseases. Dr. Greeneis the son of Clayton W. Greene, M.D.'IO who is emeritus professor of medicine in the Medical School. Dr. Stockton Kimball, dean of the School of Medicine, pointed out that the grant will domuch to encourageresearch in adult heart disease. "Thesupport of this professorship will definitely strengthen the resources of the University and forward the attack on this serious challenge to the health of the citizens of Western New York," Dr. Kim- ball added. Dr. Furnas, Frederick E. Wheeler and Harry M. Dent study the contents of the Dent grant. 3 �NOTICE OF NOMINATIONS FOR ELECTION OF ALUMNI MEMBERS OF THE COUNCIL the Ordinances of the UniverPursuant of Buffalo, notice is hereby given that, to sity at the annual Alumni election for members of the Council which will close on June 1, 1956,three (3) members of the Council will be chosen by the Alumni for a term of four (4) yearseach.

This program, the most popular local show on the air, was originated on radio in March 1941 by Mr. Arthur I. Goldberg who was at that time Director of Public Relations at the University and also chief rewrite man for the Buffalo Evening News. The subject of the initial program was "How Far Should Aid to England Go." The participants were Dr. Earl J. McGrath, BA'2B, MA'3O, moderator, Dean Mark de Wolfe Howe, Dean Julian Park and Dr. John T. Horton, BA'26. The first moderator of the series was Dr. McGrath, former Dean of Administration at the University and U.S. Commissioner of Education and who is now President of the University of Kansas City. He was succeeded as moderator by Dr. ClaudeE. Puffer, the present Acting Chancellor of the University, who in turn relinquished his duties to Dr. Carlton F. Scofield,former head of the Department of Psychology at U.B. Dr. Scofield was succeeded by the present moderator,Dr. Joseph Shister,Chairmanof the Department of IndustrialRelations. Other moderators for brief periods included: Mr. Goldberg, Joe Wesp of the WBEN staff, Mr. CharlesWebster of the Law School and Dr. Wendell Calkins now on leave from the Department of History and Government at the University. U. B. Round Table 15th Anniversary of Community Service A behind the camera view of the participants on the University ofBuffalo Round Table, The program is divided into two parts, summer presentation, July through September, and a winter presentation from October through June. In summer the Round Table is devoted solely to discussions of medical and health problems with the moderators and participants recruited from the faculty of the Medical School and hospitals in the community. The participants contribute their time without reimbursement,as a public sera vice. Subjectsfor the winter series are chosen because of their current interest. They are diversified to attract as wide a viewing and listening audience as possible. It is important that the topics lend themselves to discussion rather than to exposition. If a speech or three speeches can present a subject satisfactorily without discussion, the subject is not considered suitable for the Round Table. The topics and the participants for each week are chosen by Miss Mildred D. Spencer, program consultant and coordinator who is also a member of the Buffalo Evening News Editorial Staff. All are subject to the approval of the station management. Suggestions from the public Bulletin are considered if they fit into the program format and if qualified persons are available to discuss them. The participants are personally contacted and arrive at the station early Saturday evening. They are briefed onroutine and techniques of radio and TV but the program itself is completely unrehearsed. The only notes used by the participants are those ofstatistical nature or quotations. The station gives the time and contributes the services of its staff. It also reimburses the program consultant and coordinator, the moderator and panel members. Many clergymen in the area hold Social Security cards because of their appearance on the program. This humor- ous fact is due to the U.S. Government ruling that classifies all participants as being "'employed" by the station for the 30 minutes they are on the air. During the past 15 years many outstanding people and programs have been seen and heard on the Round Table. Famous persons who have participated in this series include the noted conductor Leopold Stowkowski; former Lt. Gov- ernor Frank C. Moore, LLB'2I; U.S. Senator from Alabama John Sparkman; Mclvin H. Baker, Chairmanof the Board of National Gypsum Co.; Matthew J.Jasen, former presiding judge at the U.S. Court at Heidelberg, Germany; former Supreme CourtJustice, David Diamond;Parraer L. Ewing, Superintendent of Buffalo Public Schools;Charles P. Taft, attorney and spiritual leader of Cincinnati,Ohio; CongressmenWilliam E. Miller, Edmund P. Radwan, LLB'34, Anthony F. Tauriello and many other noted personalities. Through the combined efforts of the University, WBEN and the Evening News the program has contributed to the thinking and enlightenment of the people of Western New York. The subject matter, often controversial,covers every area of interest for its viewers and listeners from all walks of life. The Round Table's importance was manifested in 1952 when it was the recipient of the Freedoms Foundation honor medal award. We, as alumni, can be proud of the University for playing such a significant part in a worthwhile community service. 5 �Crosby Hall at dusk is prepared for an invasion by students.

The third member,a bank executive said, "That's quite a record. But I can see how a man can get interested in learning. About two yearsago I was just plain bored with the banking business,so I took the Biology for Modern Living course. Well sir, since that time I've come back each semester. Took a course in philosophy, then one in psychology, and attended the Institute on Federal Taxation. It gets in your blood I guess." Historically, MFC has pioneered in the development of course offerings to serve THdtcmcC the educational needs of the adult citizenryof the Niagara Frontier. The varied evening curricula in the College of Arts and Sciences,School of Business Administration, Divisions of General and Technical Studies and Graduate Schoolof Arts and Sciences are administered by Millard Fillmore College. The Schoolsof Education, Nursing and Social Work are assisted administratively by MFC in their evening course offerings. The University extends degree opportunities to young and old alike during hours which permit a combination of daytime work and eve- ning education. Somecourses originating in MFC have mushroomed in popularity and served as nuclei of new departments created in the day divisions of the University. The MFC faculty consists of regular full-time day division instructors whose profession it is to teach, and of successful business and professional men of Western New York. Evening students are in a position to benefitfrom contact with both the trained investigator-scholar and the man of affairs. Special Courses for Adults Great progress had been made in the development of non-credit courses and special interest courses. Admission to these courses is based upon interest and need of the adult for additional information. With the aid of a university faculty trained in the leadership of adult-level courses it is the desire of MFC to help mature persons in their everyday living and working, to provide a background for the interpretation of currentproblems, and to aid in development of new interests. Because Modern Man has become in- creasingly curious about his relationship to the universe and seeks to understand the historical-cultural antecedents that have shaped his life, a program called "Continuing Adult Education" was started in September 1955- The five new liberal arts courses offered were Brave New Worlds, Thought and Cultureof the Middle East, GreatWorld Crises,History of Polish Culture and Famous Elizabethan Plays. Frequently various groups in the Community have requested the offering of special non-credit or credit courses of interest to their membership. The wide range of interests thus served is evident in descriptions of some of the programs. It has been our pleasure to arrangethese programs.Business Theory for Secretaries is a program designed to help secretaries prepare for the National Certified ProfessionalSecretariesExamination. Each yearMFC organizes a series of on-campus lectures on Administrative Management for Small Business in cooperation with the SmallBusiness Administration Office in Washington. The Federal Tax Institute is another annual program. It is planned in cooperation with the Buffalo Chapter, New York Society of Certified Public Accountants. Coursesin banking and finance are given which meet the requirements for the certificateconferredby the National Chapter of the American Institute of Banking. Other groups served are: Buffalo TrafficClub and the Niagara Industrial Traffic League, Purchasing Agents Association of Buffalo, Buffalo Real Estate Board,Insurance Club of Buffalo, Buffalo Chapter of Life Underwriters, The Committee of Public Administration Training, The CreativeThinking Institute, Niagara Frontier of the American Material Handling Society and the Buffalo Sectionof the American Society of Lubrication Engineers. For those at the other end of the age continuum MFC has arranged three special classes for children. The children's classes meet on Saturdaymornings. Swimming instruction and Modern Dance for boys and girls are given in Clark Gym. Painting classes for children are offered at the Albright Art School on Elmwood Avenue. The diversity of services and courses which can be administered through MFC are almost limitless. Theaim of this division is expansion, extension and change of these services to meet the needs of the adult population. 7 �Alumnae The University of Buffalo Alumnae Association will present its 7th Annual Luncheon and Fashion Show on Saturday, March 3, 1956 in the Ballroom of the Hotel Scatler at 12:30P.M.

Buffalo recovered from the Colgate heartbreaker by walloping Brockport for the second time 68-60 in the final game before the exam layoff. U.B.s success during the first half of the season has been a team effort. Although senior forward Kurt Lang, with an average of 17 points a game ranks among the area's leading scorers, Roy Fowler, Dave Levitt, Chuck Daniels and Bill Annable, who normally start along with Lang, are also averaging in double figures each game. Art Cholewinski and little Fred Johnson, Eiken's first line reserves are also scoring well. Speed, adept ball handling, opportunistic play, and a collectively good shooting eye, characterize this year's U.B. U. B. Basketball Squad—left to right: Coach Eiken, Ass't.Coach Kwaitak, Fowler, Levitt, Englert, Annable, Saltmann, Cholewinski, Lang, Aaron,Lewis, Johnson,Daniels, Mgr.Kosobucki. eiken's University Coach falo Basketball Bulls have proved the surprise in Western New York mal of Buf- team inter-collegiate basketball circles. - Before the start of the campaign the experts reasoned that the Bulls would not be able to survive the loss by graduation of the incomparable Jimmy Home. The consensus rated U.B. a lead-pipe cinch to lose at least fifteenof its twenty scheduled games. Eiken was similarly publicly pessimistic, as he was facedby a decided lack of height and proven scoring punch. However Mal did not take into consideration two very important factors his own spectacular ability as a coach,and his team's tremendous desire to win. .. . As the Bulls broke for first semester final examinations their record of eight victories and only three defeatsranked percentagewise at thetop of the area heap. During the season's opener with Brock- port, U.B. survived a rocky first half, in which they trailed by as many as 14 points, to come from behind and score a 65-57 victory. Powerful Cornell handed the Bulls an 83-73 setback at Ithaca, but the Big Red, a 25 point pre-gamefavorite, needed an almost improbable number of officiating breaks to escape the humiliation of a Barton Hall defeat. The Bulls ran up a modest four game winning streak after the Cornell defeat. The Eikenites spanked their traditional rival Hobart 83-72,beat Alfred 80-78 in a real thriller at Alfred, defeated Buffalo 12 State 66-46 before a standing room only crowd at Clark Gym, and set St. Lawrence down to an 82-68 defeat. U.B. was a decided underdog in each of the games with the exception of the Buffalo State .. team, which lacks those two supposedly important winning ingredients height and good reserve strength. Anna- — most ble at 63" is the Bulls tallest operator. Eiken dresses nine men for each game not by choice but because they are all he has. Our hats are off to Mal and his fighting basketball team. encounter. A threeweek Christmas andNew Year's break set the Bulls up for theirsecond defeat of the campaign. Invading Cortland, sharp as aged cheese after holiday tournament action, caught Eiken's crew at its seasonal worst and on January 6 hung an 88-74 defeat on the record. Without attempting to alibi the loss, it takes no expert to understand that the three week competitive layoff couldn't possibly have helped the cause. The Bulls bounced back with wins over the University of Toronto and a touring University of Puerto Rico five, handling both invading units with comparative ease. U.B. knocked off Toronto 73-48 and Puerto Rico 77-63,setting the stage for a thriller to end all thrillers on the night of Friday the 13th. The site: Clark Gym; The opposition: the nationally regarded Red Raiders of Colgate University. Colgate won 66-65 in the final split second of play as a desperation "hope to goodness" turning, jump shot from the corner made a discouragingly accurate connection with the basket. The underdog Bulls, playing with only six men throughout the game, led the contest until the final Red Raider score.

The young lady is Susan Papia, daughter of Gerald C. Papia, BFA '49 and Jacquelyn Kocinski Papia, BA '49. Perhaps in a few years we can recapture a similar picture on the campus of the University. picture Alumni �A Message . From the Acting Chancellor of the University: To the Alumni: On behalf of all the University family, I express my gratitude for the splendid response shown by our alumni in thisfine record offinancial support. It is gratifying to note the increase, not only in dollar totals, but also in the number of loyal alumni who have so expressed their support. Several divisions of theAlumni Loyalty Fund have incorporated new programs which allow alumni to pledge an annual gift and enable the University to rely upon a certain amount of income each year. The original success of this program in the Medical division (The Annual Participating Fund for Medical Education) encouraged the Dental division to adopt a similar pattern. In its first year the Annual Dental Education Participating Fund has attained very impressive results. This continued enthusiasm, as seen in the dental record, is so inspiring that 1956 will see additionalannual participating programs in the Pharmacy and Business Administration divisions. The impressive Development Fund total represents, for the most part, completion of payments on the original pledges, and we hope that these alumni will continue their support through regular donations to our annual Alumni Fund. Of course, it is not necessary to be a donor of large gifts to help the University in a substantial degree. The steady upgrade of Alumni giving as a whole through the years is evidence of the increasing knowledge on the part of our alumni that theirsupport, however small in dollars and cents, is essential to insure the continuance of educational opportunities for young people now and in future years. Tangible results of this rise in voluntary financial support are shown through building programs, faculty additions and salary increases, and the growing number of worthy students whose enrollment is made possible by scholarship and loan aid. We,who are so intimately involved in the University's future, arerealizing a special obligation to make certain that it shall sustain the essential growth it is now experiencing, not only physically, but in local influence and nationalreputation. Sincerely yours, Bulletin �A Message From the General Chairman of the Fund Committee: To the Alumni: Again last year an increased number of Alumni gave to various funds at the University. In fact, 3240 donated a total of $290,495. The amounts varied from one dollar to several thousand, and each is welcome, no matter how small or how large. The fact that so many remember to give something is encouraging to the Fund Committee. Unfortunately, many Alumni send nothing, so won't you respond this year when asked for a contribution to the Alumni Fund? Better still, why not send it right now as you read this. LA FORGE, MD'34 The Participating Funds from theDental and Medical Schools have been tremendously successful, and our program to encourage the Alumni to include the University of Buffalo in theirwills is showing results. Many Alumni have told us that the University of Buffalo is included "if and when." The fact of giving is important, not the amount. If you know anyone who is looking for a project for a living memorial, or can leave a sum in their will for the University, please convince them that U.B. will use any amount to good advantage. Our University is constantly improving, due to your kindness and generosity.

Alumni �Mai Eiken Resigns; Testimonial to Recall Decade of Success The tears that had coursed his face as he acknowledged the building shaking plaudits went officially unnoticed. But they were there and the rivulets carried equal portions of the joy and sorrow of the occasion. A veteran newspaper scribe—his cloak By CHUCK BURR of professional cynicism showing temporarily thin—summed it up best as he blinked back his own emotions. "Cripes," he said, "they love the guy and he loves Director of Sports Publicity momentarily THEhesitated exit walking on join family and a TALL MAN from Minnesota at the behis fore to His waiting quick friends. small group of survey of the gym, deserted now but for a cleanup crew, encompassed memories of ten years, "I wouldn't trade for a million them." dollars." Twenty minutes earlier, the man had guided his last University basketball team to its final victory of the season. The curtain had descended on a ten year basketball coaching career of almost unparalleled success amidst a spontaneous ovationfromfriend and friendly foe alike. The man from Minnesota was a sports legend in Western New York —albeit a living, youthful one. His coaching fame spread far beyond the area as his U.B. teams compiled winning records year after year, defying as they did a fundamental you gottahave the horses sports or you don't win." axiom—1 He seldom had the "horses" to match the schedules. True a few bright, natural stars blazed across his horizon, but they could be enumerated quickly and by name. The overwhelmingmajorityofboys the man had to work with were molded, shaped, developed and inspired into out- standing individual and team players by the indefinable genius of his coaching ways. As one famous area coach put it after U.B. had defeated his 30 point favored, nationally ranked team—one of countless "He upset victories the man scored must do it with mirrors. He has only one kid who could even make my squad." Mirrors—no. Patience, fundamental soundness, expert handling and understanding of available manpower, alertness to situations and so many more were the coaching attributes that provided the catalyst for the victories the experts said —, were "astounding." The man's success as a coach was equaled by the coach's success as a man. From the highest academic levels down, within the University, he enjoyed the friendship, trust and loyal support of those traditionally inclined to view with suspicion athletic coaches and their mo- tives. It was no accident. The man, while Bulletin MAL EIKEN sincerely believing the value of a strong intercollegiate athletic program, was equally adamant in his belief that a university's principal purpose is educational. Therefore, while he welcomed studentathletes, athlete-students were given short shrift. The community outside the University afforded the man from Minnesota the friendship and respect communities are traditionally reluctant to display one who is not of their own. Mayors, councilmen, industrial and professional leaders, educators and coaches from other schools, businessmen, working men and women, sports writers, broadcasters and fans unanimously like and admire him. Discovering a person who felt otherwise was as tough as finding teeth in the mouth of a hen. An area coach's proverb stated it to be "a pleasure to lose to the guy, because you really don't lose at all. You gain, instead, a valuable education in technique, poise, objectivity and sportsman- ship." The tall man had said after the packed house rose to its collective feet and figuratively applauded the roof off Clark Gym duringthe final game halftime ceremonies —"I'll always remember and cherish this moment." So too will the University and thecommunity retain and cherish the memory of the man from Minnesota who did nothing but good for ten years. It was true, and it was a natural love born almost at first glance and nurtured subsequently along the highest standards of mutual integrity, trust and loyaltycoach to University and community, University and community to coach. The tall man from Minnesota, his survey of the gym completed, tugged absently at the lobe of his right ear. He walked quickly to the waiting group of family and friends. A tall, very pretty woman stepped to greet him. She touched his hand as he smiled at her. Then Mai Eiken, the world's finest type coach and man, and his wife Margaret walked together into the night. A testimonial dinner will be held on May 7 at 6:30 o'clock at the Park Lane Restaurant in honor of Mai Eiken. Tickets may be obtained at the University Athletic Office in Clark Gym or by mail addressed to "Chuck" Burr, director of sports publicity at the University. Basketball Results .. -.. Buffalo.

University THE February peacefully passed lost a loyal friend on 18 when Edward H. Butler away. Mr. Butler, nationally known editor of the Buffalo Evening News and president of WBEN, had been a central figure for many years in the growth of the University. During the 1920 endowment fund campaign, Mr. Butler and his sister, then, Mrs. Roscoeß. Mitchell, established the Edward H. Butler professorship in English literature in memoryof theirfather. In the 1929 campaign Mr. and Mrs. Butler established a fund to be named after them. Mrs. Butler, who since the reorganization of the University has been a member of the Council, contributed the Butler chimes which tell the time for the University from the tower of Edmund Hayes Hall. Mr. Butler's last University benefaction was his contribution, of funds for the Edward H. ButlerAuditorium in Samuel P. Capen Hall, the new Medical School building on campus. He did this in conjunction with his niece Mrs. Kent S. McKinley. In 1953 the University bestowed upon Mr. Butler the highest award annually given in Buffalo. Former Chancellor McConnell, in presenting the gold medal emblematic of this distinction, the Chan- cellor's Medal, called him an "editorand publisher of outstanding accomplishments and high integrity, civic leader and educational statesman, because in generous measure you have personified civic patriotism, vivified public service, and dignified Buffalo in the eyes of the world."

Puffer, acting chancellor of the University, has every reason to smile as he stands next to the architect's photograph of the proposed eleven story dormitory. The construction of the dormitory is due to begin sometime this summer and completion is expected by thefall of 1957. Dr. Puffer should also have reason to smile in satisfaction of the fine job he has done during the absence of Chancellor Clifford C. Furnas. Dr. Puffer's commencement address is contained in the following three pages. Alumni �The Role of the Voluntarily-Supported Urban University Commencement Address by Acting Chancellor Claude E. Puffer began CLAUDE DR. address by personally congratulating members of 1956 graduatE. PUFFER the 892 his the ing class. He then stated that it is traditionalfor Commencement speakers to do two things: first, to point out that the word "commencement" is used advisedly because the graduate is leaving the University to get down to serious business and secondly, to overwhelm the graduate with oceans of advice. Electing to dispense with the traditional pattern of commencement addresses, Dr. Puffer turned to a subject which is "uppermost in my mind and very dear to my heart." Future of the University "It is also one in which you, as members of the graduating class of 1956, have an immense stake and, therefore, should have a very great interest. I refer simply to the future of this University —the University of Buffalo. I want to point out to you that between now and 1970, the longrange destiny of the University of Buffalo will very likely be determined in a manner more decisive than at any other time in its entire history. We now have before us a problem of major dimensions. I propose to tell you what the problem is, what we propose to do about it, the reasons behind our decision, some clues as to probable success and the implications to you, the new graduates. The problem itself is simple. Can, and should, the University ofBuffalo continue to expand sufficiently rapidly so that Bulletin educational opportunities of equal or better quality may be provided for at least twice the number now enrolled? Itis not a problem which is unique among institutions of higher education, but there are some special aspects to which I shall call your attention in a few moments. This country now has in its elementary schools such numbers of students that even though no greater proportion of them wish to attendcollege than now go on from our secondary schools, there will be a formidable increase in the demand for higher education every year from now on through 1970. The magnitude of this increased demand varies with geographical location. It is eminently clear that the number who will wish to enter the University of Buffalo by 1970will be approximately double the number who now seek admission. This means that instead of a student body composed of 6,500 full-time day students and 4,500 part-time and chiefly evening students, this University should be prepared in 14 years to accommodate twice that number, or 13,000fulltime students and 9,000 part-time. And, if other colleges and universities in the state or in this broad geographicalregion fail to keep up with this rate of increase, the demand to be made on the University of Buffalo may even be greater than I have indicated. In a recent article in the Educational Record, Dr. William S. Carlson, President of the State University of New York, quoted a number of spokesmen for various colleges in New York State indicating that those particular institutions plan to expand enrollments very little, although they recognized the need. I am happy to report that no such quotation could be madefrom a University of Buffalo official. On the other hand, this is notice to you, the new graduates, to your parents, and to the friends and supporters of the University of Buffalo, that we do plan to go forward to meet the educational needs of this Niagara Frontier, regardless of how difficult the task appears. This is a brave statement and is perhaps best made by a mere Acting Chancellor who is, in effect, committing his superior, ChancellorClifford C. Furnas, to a task rivaling that of Atlas upholding the world, but from my knowledge of Dr. Furnas, it is a task which he will perform if it is humanly possible to do so and from which he will never shirk. It is also a brave statement to those of you who know that we are presently using our physical plant almost to its fullest degree, having even converted attics and basements to classrooms and laboratories in order to meet the existing space requirements. Some clues as to whether or not we shall be successful in this great venture will be offered in a few moments, but let us now turn our attention to the reasons behind our decision to meet this vast problem of numbers. Role of the VoluntarilySupported Institution The reasons are relatively simple but very fundamental and are not, as some of you may have suspected, merely an interest in growth and size and glory in the belief that something that is big is better 1 �than something that is small. The answer is our firm and unshakable belief in the significant role of the voluntarily-supported institution of higher education and more especially the role of the voluntarilysupported urban university. Please note, if you will, that I refer to voluntarilysupported institutions, rather than the more common terminology of privatelycontrolled, privately-endowed or independent institutions in the hope that my terminology more clearly indicates the true nature of the institution. Why should we be concerned over the future of the voluntarily-supported institutions? Is it only a matter of vested interest or personal pride or some other selfish attitude? No, it is not and I regret that I have time to make only two points. The first is related to the fact that at the present time something like halfthe total effort in higher education is supplied by tax-supported institutions and the other half by privately-controlled or endowed, or as I prefer to call them, voluntarilysupported institutions. This balance is almost surely going to be upset over the next few years by the vast expansion of the tax-supported institutions, and it is the existence of this balance that hasbeen one of the great strengths of our entire system of higher education. And what has been the chief contribution of the non-tax-supported institutions? As Chancellor Capen pointed out in his volume which I commend to all of you, "The Management of Universities," "It is a well-known fact that most constructive changes in secondary and higher education have originated in the privately-supported institutions. Public institutions are, as a rule, less flexible ... It is fair to say that the surest index of the vitality of a privately-endowed university is its readiness to alter its methods, its requirements, or the content of its curricula for the view both to offering its students richer opportunities for self-improvement and to equipping them better to perform the duties of present-day citizenship and professional practice. The remarkable transformation which has taken place in nearly every sector of American higher education during the last thirty years is the result of scores of separate innova- tions. In the main, these have been initiated by a relatively small group of universities and colleges, most of them privately-controlled." On this matter, the facts speak for themselves and it is clear that a continued flow of these improvements is dependent upon the existence of an important segment of higher education under voluntarily-supported institutions. The other fundamental reason I shall 4 mention for the significance of voluntari- ly-supported institutions ofhigher education is related to the possibility of control of course content and ideas by governmental authorities. On this score, may I quote once more from the previouslymentioned article by Dr. Carlson in which he says, "The source offunds for higher education—whether from a public treasury or from individual or corporate benefactors—offers no peril to what a university can do. It can do only what its faculty, accepting the aims of the university and guidedby the professional traditions of freedom, will do." With this statement in the existing climate of intellectual freedom, I have no particular quarrel. I certainly do not charge that the professors in publicly- or tax-supported institutions arc subject to any significant form or amount of thought-control, but I do wish to make the point that, if at some time the climate of intellectualfreedom were to deteriorate somewhat, the very existence of a large number of strong and dedicated voluntarily-supported institutions will make the possibility of control of higher education by some demagogue vastly more difficult than it would be if only institutions whose purse strings are controlled by legislative bodies constituted the sum total of effective higher education. The voluntarily-supported colleges and universities in the State of New York have had a long and notable history of educational service and progress. In recent years, a State university has been established on a decentralized basis with the intent clearly stated in the law that it is to supplement—and I wish to empha- size that word—the educational opportunities provided by the existing institutions. On that basis, we welcome the State University in the same way that we applaud the excellent work being done by the Erie County Technical Institute in its two-year technical programs and the fine contribution made by the State Teachers College of Buffalo, which has become a unit of the State University. Parenthetically, I should like to suggest that each of youafter the Commencement exercises take a long and careful look at the property adjoining our campus just across the street along Bailey Avenue at Main Street. Visualize if you will the magificent educational and cultural center that would exist in this area if this property were to become, in part, a site for expansion of the University of Buffalo, as well as the new campus for our friends the Erie County Technical Institute and the most central location for the main building of the Erie County Library. But to return to the role of the voluntarily-supported university, may I point out that in this State as a whole, we need cooperative planning under the guidance of the Board of Regents and the State De- partment of Education to insure the existence of ample educational opportunities. I am happy to endorse a statement made by the Governor of the State of New York on May 4, 1956 at the inauguration of James E. Allen, Commissioner of Education of the State of New York. The Governor said, "It is essential that we plan and take steps now to develop and expand our institutions of higher education to meet the rapidlygrowing needs. The Board of Regents and the Commissioner are actively engaged in developing a co-ordinated plan for new institutions and expansion of existing facilities. Itis my aim fully to support them in their efforts to see that the future development of our institutions of higher learning takes place in accordance with coordinated and balanced plans. I was forced to veto a bill passed by the Legislature which would have required the Trustees of the State University to proceed with the construction of a particular institution which the Regents had not approved. I did so at the request of the Regents. Decisions of this importance must not be made on a hit-or-miss basis or in response to local pressures, but only in accordance with careful study and with full regard to the relative roles of private and public institutions. It is, of course, of prime importance that our private educational institutions be given every encouragement and opportunity to expand and develop in order to meet the increasing obligations of the years ahead. At the same time, the State University must carry an increasing load in its established fields. Funds are being, and will continue to be, made available for whatever planning for expansion the State University is able to undertake. Funds are also available for all new construction on which the State University and the Department of Public Works are ready and able to proceed." Itis clear that the role of the voluntarily-supported university is indeed a vital one which can scarcely be over-estimated. Role of the Urban University Let us look now at the fact that the University of Buffalo is not only voluntarily-supported, but is also an urban university. Located as it is in a great metropolitan area, it is participating in one of the most significant and notable developments in higher education —the great upsurge in importance and leadership of the urban university. And why Alumni �should this be so? Because the urban uni- versity—especially the voluntarily-supported urban university —has certain outstanding characteristics that especially fit it for our ever more complex society. First, it is and must always be unusually responsive to the needs of the community in which it is located. For example, the very high percentage of physicians, dentists, lawyers and other professional men who have received their education at the University of Buffalo is but one example of such responsiveness. Second, and closely related, is the willingness and desire to experiment freely in education. This has been particularly exemplified in our evening division, Millard Fillmore College, in which have been started experimental curricula that later have become full-fledged divisions or schools of the University, helping to up-grade the professional and cultural life of the community. Third, is the opportunity to advance knowledge through the interplay and support of both sponsored and unsponsored or fundamental research. Much of the research conducted by the urban university is fundamental or theoretical in character and is performed by departments of the University itself. Added to this, however, through close association with the industries of the vicinity, are research activities performed under contract in both fundamental and applied science. The combination of the practical or applied and the fundamental or theoretical research gives added resources and strength not only to the University, but to the industrial and business enterprises in the urban area. Fourth, the city itself comprises a great human laboratory where those in the Social Sciences and the Humanities may observe both deterioration and progress and may make discoveries in the field of human relationships which will be pertinent to our civilization in which the increasing population and complexities arc posing ever more difficult problems. Fifth, is the opportunity to provide continuing educational resources in Adult Education. In this area, the urban university is virtually unique, since it is surrounded by hundreds of thousands of citizens whose interests as adults run the whole gamut of human knowledge and to whom modern business is able to give the leisure in which to pursue further education. And finally, the urban university is subto almost daily criticism by those who comprise the metropolitan population. In this is one of its strengths which must not be overlooked. The very fact ject Bulletin that utterances of its professors in the classroom or in the public forum are subjected to immediate and critical evaluation with approval or disapproval expressed in no uncertain terms, is a healthy situation in which both the community and the professors are the gainers. By this statement I want no one to imply that I believe that professors should fail or hesitate to express the facts or the theories as they see them and to be protected in such statements by the University administration. Rather, I wish to point out that the immediate reaction to thenstatements provides them with an opportunity to evaluate and to improve their own ideas and to see those areas of human relationships in the community where further careful education is needed. As a voluntarily-supported urban university, is it likely that the University of Buffalo will succeed in meeting this new and tremendous problem before it? This is not the first time in its history that the University of Buffalo has faced a critical period. In its very beginnings, in 1846, it was faced with the necessity to raise money to erect a new building and to the costs connected with the establishment of a School of Medicine. Fortunately, it enrolled a student body of "89 meet can learn after some association with it, is the greatness of our University. May I quote oncemore from the writings of Dr. Capen in which he points out that, "... the modern American university does not live in splendid isolation as did the universities of an earlier day. Itforms an integral part of the affairs of the workaday world. Its experts in the natural sciences, the social sciences, and the several technologies not only teach students, they are also called on to assist industry and commerce and government and the establishments for social welfare in finding the answersto current problems of operation. Its professors of law and medicine teach their fellow practitioners as well as undergraduates, and keep the professions informed of the new discoveries and interpretations which bear on the daily work of the practitioner. Its teachers of the humanities consider that it is their task to bring the great moral and esthetic values which have been distilled out of the experience of two thousand years of western civilization to the attention not only of the campus population, but also of citizens of all ages and occupations who may wish to become informed about them ... "Despite these changes of purpose and active, intelligent young men" as Professor Horton reports in his '"History of Northwestern New York," a tradition in the composition of student body which has lasted through the years. As most of you know, the University existed for some time as a Medical School only, with other professional disciplines added from time to time. May I draw your attention to only one more of the several critical periods in the history of the University —the early of method, the modern American university is no less a society of scholars than were the universities of other times. Itis still a guild of masters and neophytes bound togetherby ties of common interest and intimate association, cherishing old and often picturesque customs, playing communally in its hours of leisure with a gusto not matched in any other social group, imbued with a sense of solidarity P, This then is the University of Buffalo, whose diplomas and certificates you will carry away with you today as visible evidence that your lives are inextricably connected with its future. If I have seemed to emphasize the problems confronting the University in the future, may I now ask you to realize that these so-called problems are simply another name for the vastopportunities which lie before us. With the interest and aid of you, the graduates, your friends and neighbors, and the business and industry of the area whose support has made possible not only the physical plant which you see around you, but far more important, the brilliant and dedicated faculty with which you have been associated, the University of Buffalo is determined to accept its opportunities and move forward toward its ultimate destiny. smart, 19205. On October 28, 1922, Dr. Samuel Capen was inaugurated Chancellor of the University. In the same autumn, the University of Buffalo moved its headquarters to the present campus, the site of the former County Poor Farm. I will exercise great restraint and refrain from making any jokes about the fact that this was once the site of the County Alms House. The upsurge of the University of Buffalo, from a collection of more or less related and more or less autonomous divisions into a closely-knit University of national prominence dates from the inauguration of Dr. Capen in 1922. To understand the physical growth of the University, may I suggest that you walk around the campus this afternoon to see what has been accomplished in slightly more than 30 years, by the citizens of this community. What you cannot see, but which you which its members carry with them through life, however far they may wander." 5 �Analytical Chemistry The Analytical Chemistry Alumni Association held its annual dinner meeting the Park Lane Restaurant on May 18.

Bulletin 9 �This is a comfortable corner of the first floor lounge of Macdonald Hall, the only women's on campus. dormitory This is the architect's picture of the new 11 story dormitory placed in the center of the present dormitory location. The dorms will house 1000 students. Student*%(> Dormitory director William O Connor comers with his receptionist Miss DeMarco {left) and his assistant Mrs. Rilett. The University Scene At the left is the fourth floor combination work and study room. Each of the four dorms have similar accommodations. �This is a corner of one of the resident rooms in Cooke Hall, men's dormitory. There are now about 400 men inresidence. a. This basement recreation room is one of three student lounges located in each dormitory. This room islocated in Macdonald Hall. T^HE growth of the dormitory system X is a manifestation of the growth of the University. As the University enrollment grows, more out of town Htt&ue& students are accepted and living quarters have to be made available to them. Prior to 1952 dormitories were unheard of on the University campus. From 1952 to 1955four dormitories were built, each housing 150students. Thefour story dormitories are of the most modern construction. The student quarters are double rooms containing separate desks and closet area. There are two lavatories on each floor providing ample facilities for theresidents. The basement is the recreational and working center of each dorm. It contains a TV lounge, a generalrecreation lounge, kitchenette and launderette. On the first floor of each dormitory is a large lounge area, beautifully furnished and well lighted. It is in this area that most of the dorm students congregate. The fourth floor contains a combination study and recreation lounge. Caring for 600 students is no easy task. It takes plenty of manpower to provide the basic care for theresidents. The chief administrator for the dormitories is the Director of Housing and Food Services. He has on his staff an assistant and secretary-receptionist. There are four head residents, one of whom is Director of Men's Dormitories. There are twelve assistant headresidents, three in each dorm. The supervisor of housekeeping has on his staff 8 maids, 4 janitors, 6 student janitors and 4 student linen distributors. Asidefrom caring for thephysical needs of the student residents, the dormitory system is well equipped to handle the psychological needs of the student. Trained psychologists are available as advisors to the men's and women's dor- mitories. With the expected student growth of the University, plans have been made to meet the influx. Because of the total expansion of the University over the entire campus and because of economy in construction, the University, and everyone else for that matter, will be looking vp 11 stories vp—to a new dormitory different in architecture from anything else seen on the campus. This structure will be the four year home of 440men students. This "U.N. type" building will include dining facilities for all the 440 students living in that dorm and is designed for ease in expansion to eventually feed all — dormitory residents. This $2,300,000 giant will feature the newest trends in dormitory living. The basement will include a bookstore extension, post office, snack bar, kitchenette, launderette, recreation lounge and a movie and television room. The first floor will include a general lounge and student conference meeting room, and each floor will have its own lounge. Every floor will be administered by a resident counselor who may be either a faculty member or graduate student. Two high speed elevators will service the dormitory. But the future contains even greater plans. To accommodate the 2,000 men students expected as residents, two more units similar to the proposed 11 story structure are envisioned. A women's dormitory scheduled for completion in 1958 is also on the building agenda. We do not remain idle. Itis the duty of the University to meet the challenge of expansion. The community and alumni should be proud of the forward steps the University is taking to keep its traditional high ranking to meet the competition in the field of education. The dormitories are only one phase in the University development, but fully indicative of the total progress of the University. �Citations Awarded for Achievements JAMES JOSEPH AILINGER DDS '25 Alumni Affairs A native of Buffalo and a graduate of the Dental School of this University James Joseph Ailin- sity throughout the years. He is an assistant professor on the faculty of the Dental member of the staff of two School and a hospitals.

Transportation A Buffalo late shipping executive for more than sixty years, and regarded as dean of the lake's shipping industry, John James Boland has done much to spark the progress of his profession. His owns the largest fleet of self-unloading freighters on the Great Lakes. In being nominated for the Great Lakes 1955 "Man of the Year" award, the members of his industry credit John James Boland with leadership that has sparked "much of lake shipping's progress in the last halfcentury." Such leadership is significant, has been basic in developing the American Way of Life, and is most worthy of recognition by this Citation. ALBERT GEORGE BUTZER Community Service For many years, the guiding influence and inspiring leadership of Albert George Butzer, pastor of the Westminster Presbyterian Church, has left a deep impression, not only on the members of his congregation, but on the whole of our community. As adviser and 12 as worker, Albert George Butzer has served diligently and well on numerous committees and civic projects, giving his strongest support to those causes which in his heart and mind he knew would bring the broadest kind of assistance to his fellow citizens. The University is proud of such a public-spirited and willing man and wishes to cite the record of this distinguished citizen of Buffalo. BS '23 DR. SIDNEY FARBER MedicalResearch Dr. Sidney Farber's outstanding contribution to research in the field of clinical treatment of leukemia in childhood has brought him fame at home and abroad. His brilliant studies have opened new hope for all who suffer from this insidious disease. He is equally well known for his guidance and training of young students in the pathologic physiology of cancer. Dr. Sidney Farber's contribution to research has been matched by his brilliant service as a physician in the Children's Medical Center of Boston. His is a most distinguished record and one of which his University is deeply proud.

Orr at the annual General Alumni Board Dinner held on June 8 at Norton Union. The citation was read by the incoming president of the GAB, Edward F. Mimmack, DDS'2I and presented to Dr. Orr by the outgoing president, Mearl D. Pritchard, PhG'2l. The citation read, in part, as follows: 'This occasion marks the 7th presentation of the Capen award, and it is significant that the committee's selection was in their opinion, both inevitable and unanimous, so important and continuous have been his activities in behalf of the alumni and the University. Immediately after graduation in 1920, he interned at the Buffalo General Hospital and was resident physician at the Buffalo Children's Hospital. From 1922 to 1925 he was an instructor in pediatrics on the faculty of Johns Hopkin's Medical School in Baltimore, Md. In 1925, he returned to Buffalo and until 1933 was a member of the faculty of the University of Buffalo Schoolof Medicine. Since 1938 he has been Professor of Pediatrics at the University of Buffalo School of Medicine. He was a member of the Executive Committee of the Medical School from 1942 to 1945 and from 1948 to 1951- ' As active he has been in the UniverSchool he still time to his to the community. He past is a president of the Staff of the Children's Hospital of Buffalo, and at present is President of the Staff for the second time. He is past president of the Medical Society of Erie County and president of the Buffalo Academy of Medicine. He is chairman of the Western New York Child Health Study Committee. His distinguished career as a physician and the time he devoted to the community hospitals and various medical organizations would seem to have left little room for additional activities in the alumni scene. But with a man so abundant in ability and energy this was not the case. He is a past president of the Medical Alumni Association, and past president of the General Alumni Board. He was head of the Medical Division of the Centennial Fund Raising Campaign, Chairman of the Medical Alumni Division, Alumni Loyalty Fund from 1945 to 1953 and chairman of the University Alumni Loyalty Fund from 1948 to 1953. He has been a member of the General Alumni Board since 1947, a member of the Executive Committee of the Annual Medical Participating Fund of the University, a member of the committee for WILLIAM J.

MIMMACK, DDS'2I 13 �Outstanding Tennis Team Highlights Spring Sports BY THE spring, BEDEVILED weathcrwisc, in number of years, The of Buffalo worst a University spring sports representatives nevertheless gave excellent accounts of themselves throughout their inter-collegiate schedules. Coach Bill Sanfords traditionally powerful tennis team scored an opening victory over the University of Rochester amidst a swirling snowsquall and went on from there to post a brilliant record of 9 victories and a lone defeat. The latter was perpetrated by Colgate's Eastern Intercollegiate powerhouse the final match of the season at Hamilton. Al Levy, Sanford's number-one singles star and Phi Beta Kappa ... to boot earned a modicum of consolation for U.B. in its lone defeat by scoring the season's top upset, a 6-4, 2-6, 8-6 victory over Colgate's number one player Leigh Strassner. The tennis team has now lost three ... matches in the last three years, all to Colgate. The University of Buffalo baseball Bulls, the early part of its schedule ruined by the elements, is still striving to make up postponements as this is written. To date, U.B. has won six of nine games played. Sixteen were originally scheduled. Defensive lapses, caused mostly by inexperience, have been principally responsible for the three defeats. Coach Jim Pccllc,forced to rebuild almost completely last season's 13-3, NCAA Tournament considered team, admits having had his hair turned gray over the team's lack of adequate defense. However, excellent hitting and a fine brand of pitching is a cinch to compensate and provide a winning record when all returns are in. '■And," saysPeelle, "we're a young club. Watch out for us next year. The highlight of the track and field seasonwas U.B.s successful defense of its own Invitation Meet. Coach Emery Fisher's youngsters upset the dope bucket and three opponents in taking down the winners end of the area's top intercollegiate competition, May 12. Buffalo State was heavily favored on the strength of a dual meet win scored over the Bulls earlier. But paced by the brilliant Ron Grazen's triple and big Franny Woidzik's field event double, U.B. squeaked through to its thrilling triumph. 14 That victory compensated completely for a rather unspectacular team season in which U.8., hindered by adequate balance in all events, managed only two dual meet wins and an unpreposing finish in the second annual New York State Intercollegiate Meet at Hamilton. Grazen, in the latter affair, highballed unofficial 220-yard record, but a 15-25 mile an hour tailing wind will undoubtedly prevent official recognition of the feat. to an Spring Sport Results TENNIS U.B. s—Rochester 0 U.B.

Alumni Weekend on Campus was a thorough success; from the General Alumni Board Dinner at Norton Union on Friday night to Commencementin front of Lockwood Library on Sunday. As far as the weather was concerned, it was almost a miracle that after weeks of cold, rainy days suddenly spring burst out into a weekend of ideal weather for out- door events. EIKEN'S successor basketball MALcoach is one of his outstanding and Len Serfustini, Edß as players '49, EdM'sl, pupils, EdD's6. Serfustini, a graduate of Buffalo Technical High School, will return to Buffalo with an outstanding winning percentage —.700—during his four year tenure at Troy (Ala.) Teachers College. Troy was ranked with the strongest small college teams in the nation during that period, having been invited three times to participate in the NAIA tournament, the minors equivalent of the NCAA. The GAB dinner was a very great success with over 60 in attendance. The members of the Board werepleased to have the dinner meeting on campus and the consensuswas that the campus never looked better. A cocktail party in the Faculty Club preceded the dinner. The coffee and citation ceremony early Saturday morning attracted approximately 200 people. Chancellor and Mrs. Furnas moved freely among the crowd at the coffee paying their respects to many of their friends. The citation ceremony progressed smoothly and presented a fine program. The luncheon and alumni TUNK were experiences that all those attending will long remember. Never in the history of the University has such an affair taken place. Everyone thoroughly enjoyed themselves. There was nothing but praise for the entire occasion. If June 9 was an enjoyable day for the adults, joy must have overwhelmed the Rochester page 5) {Continuedfrom The outstanding portion of the program was the awarding of a citation to Donald McMaster, AC 17 for his service to the University and alumni. Mr. McMaster spoke to the group of his travels in Europe prior to the Hitler invasions. Guests from the University included: Dr. and Mrs. Claude E. Puffer, Dr. and Mrs. Richard H. Heindel, Mr. and Mrs. Theodore J. Siekmann, Dr. Edgar B. Cale, Dr. Stockton Kimball and Mr. Daniel H. Murray. children. With a corral of six ponies and bright red fire engine to ride, the children kept the parents busy running back and forth between the tents and the play area. The younger children had sufficient facilities available to them in addition to the babysitters to supervise their play. The swimming pool was welcomed by many of the children who sought relief from the heat. The alumni dance sponsored by the Alumnae Association was the most successful in years. Tommy Rizzo and his orchestra varied the music style to aca commodate everyone's tastes. It was estimated that a total of 400 alumni, friends, husbands and wives attended the luncheon and TUNK. The events of the complete weekend, including citations, luncheon, TUNK and dance lured approximately 800 to the various locations of alumni activities. Without a doubt, this year's Alumni Weekend established a precedent which should reap a rich harvest of good alumni times in the years to come. Eiken had Serfustini at UB as a pupil during his early years here. The 6-feet-l, 190 pound Tech graduate proved a rugged rebounder and an outstanding defensive performer. He also played football. Eiken, even at that time recognized Scrfustini's potential as a coach, and taught the finer points of the game to the eager player. The retiring coach expressed himself enthusiastically upon being notified of Serfustini's appointment. "'I consider Len an excellent choice," said Mai. "He is a thorough student of the game and a tremendously nice guy. He is sure to be popular with the players, alumni, fans, press and radio. I am flat- tered beyond words that the University chose one of my former players as my successor."

Leslie Barnette rT"'OO few universities know what beJ_ comes of their graduates and the relations between academic careers and later occupational success. A recently completed study (University of Buffalo Studies, 1956, 22, No. 4) by Dr. Edward S. Jones, former Director of the Office of Personnel Research and now Professor of Psychology, is of great interest and value in this regard. Dr. Jones' study is a follow-through of records and other data on over 450 UB graduates who have been Dr. Edward S.Jones was born in Aiadura, India in 1888. Hereceived bis A.B. from Oberlin College in 1908 and bis Ph.D. from the University of Chicago in 1917. Dr. Jones was assistant director of the vocational bureau of the Cincinnati Public Schoolsfrom 1913 to From 1911 to 1919 he served as an officer in the 1916. psychological service of the U.S. Army. He was assistant professor of psychology at Oberlin College f?#mAsl9 to 1923 and was appointed professor at the University ofBuffalo in 1923. 1925 to 1952 Dr. Jones was director of the personnel office at the University and from 1941 to 1952 he was Dean of Students, retiringfrom administrative work in 1952. For 20years he was in general charge of College Credit Examinations for Superior Students. He has worked under the General Education Board Foundation on Examinations in American Colleges and under the Carnegie Foundation Branch on College Credit Examinations. He was Fullbrigbt Professor at the University of the Phil- ippines in 1949. During the past 30 years Dr. Jones has written over 40 books and articles, mainly in the personnel field. He is a member of the American Personnel and Guidance Association, National Vocational Guidance Association, American Psychological Association, and Scolio Club. 16 DR. EDWARD S. JONES college from 15 to 20 years, with special emphasis on 167 men for whom there was the most complete information. The study utilized data of unusual variety: grades, aptitude test results, personality ratings, range of interests, feelings of confidence, parental background, attitudes and opinions, etc. One of the great out of difficulties in all such studies is the selection of adequate and fair criteria of later success. Here Dr. Jones used several indices: income, success ratings by associates and by college professors who kept in touch with the graduate, self-satisfaction with one's career, degree of living up potential (as indicated by college grades and aptitude test scores). In this short report attention may only be given to the majorresults; interestedreaders are referred to the original report, copies of to which may be secured from the Office of the Dean, College of Arts and Sciences, 292 Hayes Hall. Dr. Jones found very good evidence that college grades, nearly always in line with the high school record, are of real importance in predicting one's advancement in science and education; they appear to be of little value in predicting one's later success in the fields of social service (including law) and business. In these latter areas the range of a man's socialization (such as participation in extracurricular activities) and leadership appear to be more important. Results from freshman aptitude tests (a battery of psychological tests measuring mental ability, English skills, reading comprehension and the like) are useful in predicting success in areas whereresearch ability is involved and for those who go into education. A complicating factor here is that of motivation as with the high aptitude man who becomes satisfied with a low or even average success level in his college work. Extracurricular activities are an imtotalrecord, the significance of which varies a great deal for portant part of the different groups. Mere expression of a ' wide range of interests or beinga joiner indicates little. The more weight one gives to leadership, the more useful as a later success predictor —as with law and business positions where social contacts are important. On the other hand, participation in these activities on campus are of little value for later success in scientific research. Dr. worked out an achievement or motivation index, which took into account academic grades in relation to a Jones student's tested aptitudes. This may be a more important measure than college grades alone. This was especially true for the business group in which there were several graduates with low-average college grades and low aptitude test scores butwho have advanced very successfully. Involved here is, of course, the ability to survive in a four-year training program and which might well be indicative of superior motivation or drive. Alumni �Personality ratings from professors and from associates (as a student), including early impressions by counselors in student interview situations, may be useful in estimating the chances of later success, especially in social service and business areas. Ratings of personal attractiveness and for poise seem, for example, to correlate with later success (except for science). The role of the scientist seems to be different from that of the other groups. To be ultimately successful, whether in medicine, research, or engineering, the graduate has had to be attentive to academic success. Here one's social participation is less important than one's energy or alertness in college classes or labora- jobs and are not promoted to positions of responsibility. As men continue in supervised or restricted jobs they become increasingly less satisfied unless they are qualified (usually with the PhD degree) for research or are appointed to greater tories. A man's satisfaction with his occupation is a product of several factors. Naturally it is related to his earned income, especially in business, but other considerations may be more important when looking at the people in non-business careers. The relatively high satisfaction which men have in scientific research and in teaching, compared to administrative jobs in schools or offices or as regards mediocre engineering positions, suggests that men like to be on their own without close supervision and time-accountability. Teachers were typically found to have a high level of satisfaction with their work and which would also be tied in with their relative de-emphasis on economic or financial gains; many of these men were youngest sons in fairly large families whose parents did not have the benefit of high educational or social status. On the other hand, sons of parents withonly grammar school education who later went into business have not been well satisfied possibly because family influence may play such an important role in business success. In one's early years of work in industry most men seem fairly satisfied unless they find themselves in small or mediocre office Dr. W. Leslie Barnette wasborn in Leßoy, N. Y. on July 8, 1910. He graduated from Lafayette High School in Buffalo in 1928, received his B.A. in 1932 and his M.A. in 1936, both from the University of Buffalo. Dr. Barnettereceived his Ph.D. from New York University in 1949. He hasbeen an instructor at the Buffalo Collegiate Center, Buffalo State Teachers College, Pace College and New York University before returning to the University ofBuffalo as Director of the Vocational CounselingCenter. Dr. Barnette's many positions at the University include those of associate professor director of psychology, director of student counseling, testing. ofvocational counseling, anddirectorof group During World War II Dr. Barnette served as a psychologist research assistant at San Antonio Aviation Cadet Center. He had further duty as a consultantto psychoneurotic patients, and thenforeign service with the OSS in Kandy, Ceylon and in Singapore, as of theresearch and analysis branch of chief OSSfor the India-Burma Theater. His work with the OSS in the Far East provided the beginning of interest in India and the East, and inspired him to accept a Fullbright grant in 1952-1953 as a visiting professor of psychology and guidance at the Central Institute of Education in Delhi, India. executive positions. Looking at those now in sales, these seem to show more satisfaction with their careers—providing they remain in this areafor 15or more years. Although they may not have been good students, a fair amount of social expressiveness may have helped them in influencing others and their efforts in this direction haveresulted in direct rewards. The overall results of Dr. Jones' study indicate that a college graduate of good academic standing and fair ability to mix with others need have little fear of getting ahead in most fields. In recent years, certainly, this college graduate has been in great demand, but his earned income may depend more on the vocational field he selects, or on the influence of relatives, than on any extra effort he may apply to his job. For example, a person of moderate ability, but with leadership qualities or with family support, may do well in business but will be much less secure elsewhere. Not surprising, for advancement in college teaching and in scientific research, genuine interest in academic subject matter is far more important than is extracurricular involvement. This writer would also like to point out another very valuable feature of Dr. Jones' study—aside from the follow-up information mainly stressed in this brief report. From the point of view of the University counseling staff, such extensive and detailed data become of great value in the advising and counseling of currently enrolled students. Counselors may learn from this report some of the important kinds of data which tie in with later success in different areas; we get a glimpse of what sorts of information are important and what is more or less irrelevant. Not only has Dr. Jones done a service in pointing out long-range trends but he has also caused those people dealing with current students to look more carefully for other signs which may be of value or hindrance to later success. Even if you are just an occasional reader of the "Alumni Bulletin" you will notice that Dr. Jones' study is occupying the space ordinarily reserved for the Alumni News Items. Dr. Barnette's report ofthe study is substituting for news items for two reasons. First, it is an excellent account of a rather read Alumni News Items or articles very interesting subject, and second, it is questionable whether alumni would other by written members or authorities. faculty interest particular of Drop us a note giving your reaction.

Alumni �Letters to the Editor: The following letters are in response to a request in the June Bulletin for expressions of preference of whether alumni would rather read "Alumni News Items" or articles of specialinterest byfaculty members or alumni. These letters reflect the general feeling of the alumni. We look forward to letters from alumni on any phase of the magazine. Please feel free to voice your opinions concerning the contents. All letters of interest will be published. Dear Sir: There is always controversy when it comes to choosing what material is more interesting to read. Personally I think there is no solution. Alumni News Items are interesting; so are good articles by able people. Please give us both. C. Downer, '48 Dear Sir: In reference to the last page of the Alumni Bulletin; Academic Articles vs Alumni News—I am in favor of the Alumni News. Even though the recent article was excellent, the function of the Alumni Bulletin is to inform the alumni of the progress and activities of the University and to wherethe alumni are and what they are doing. This gives a more personal meaning to the Bulletin. I hope you will include again, in the very near future, the Alumni News section. L. P. Garo, BS(Busjs2 Dear Sir: Excellent Commencementissue received through forwarding service of local post office. An unusual paper as an occasional substitute for Alumni Notes is readable and welcome. Dorr Vide, LLB'O4 Dear Sir: You solicited comment regarding Dr. Barnett's article in the last issue of the Alumni Bulletin; I am happy to have this opportunity to tell you how much I enjoyed his article. It seems to me that similar articles would do much to inform the alumni of significant work being carried on by members of our faculty. This article concerning Dr. Jones' work was an excellent beginning; I hope you can continue this trend in future issues. Ivan L. Bunnell, MA '42, MD'43 Dear Sir: I'm celebrating my first anniversary as an alumnus by sending this note of thanks for publishing Dr. Leslie W. Barnett's article about Dr. Jones' study. As a speech major, I can't pretend to evaluate the article (I pulled a C in Psych. 101 and decided to conceal my inadequacies by staying away from advanced courses). However, I can report that I found the article far more interesting than the Alumni News Items which normally occupy the space. I hope you'll continue to carry news of general interest about other alumni. The space usually given to notices of births, minor promotions and social activities, however, could be more profitably used to carry articles about current academic activities at the University —such as Dr. Jones' study. Once again, thanks for publishing the article. It did more to stimulate my pride in my alma mater than a dozen pages of vital statistics about other alumni. Robert R. Smith, BA'55 Dear Editor: Insomuch as my husband and I look forward to reading the Alumni News Items, we were disappointed to find it omitted this issue. You are to be congratulated, however, on the fine Bulletin now being published. Rita Connelly Qor) JohnJ. Connelly, MD'42 .. Dear Sir: In the June 1956 issue of the Bulletin you state: it is questionable whether alumni wouldrather read Alumni News Items or articles of particular interest. There isn't any question that I would rather read Alumni News Items. The particular article happened to be of personal interest but if a rule is to be followed, I prefer the Alumni News Items. Perhaps things will get to the point where Alumni News Items will be printed separately and sent to those sufficiently interested to subscribe to it. Reuben Walk, BA'39 ... Letter to the Alumni: Dear Alumni: Ithas been a long time since most of us used the Latin we learned in high school. In fact the only Latin we may remember are phrases such as "veni, vidi, vici" or our high school and college mottos. As former university students we do have reason to refer to our fellow classmates of the past by the use of Latin terms. Because these words are used more and more as our alumni body grows and becomes more active, this seems like an appropriate time for everyone to brush up on those long lost Latin words. In referring to the various alumni, the proper way to do so follows: alumna—feminine, singular alumnae (ne)—feminine, plural alumnus—masculine, singular alumni—masculine, plural alumni—mixed, plural I hope all you "ALUMNUSSES" remember the proper way to refer to your former classmates. Editor Bulletin 3 �the idea of a university . .. A UNIVERSITY is an institution in which the advancement of knowledge is deliberately and officially fostered, an institution which is committed not only to the higherforms of instruction but also to research, and which rests its reputation on the quality of its scholarly output. In all its departments it is devoted to inquiry and to intellectual creation. Hence, all of its educational activities, on whatever level they may be inducted and toward whatever practical ends they may be directed,are informed by the spirit of research, are made to square with the standards of intellectual integrity set by the research scholar. Since these are its central purposes, the university is and must be an institution without intellectual boundaries. It is and must be wholly free to prosecute the search for truth unhampered by the possibility of a veto imposed from without or from above. Any aspect of nature, any work of man, any accepted idea, any entrenched prejudice, any institution of society, must be for it a fair field for new discovery. There must be no restraints upon the publication of its findings and interpretations, whether these happen to be popular or unpopular. Those who pursue the truth under its sponsorship, whether they be teachers or students, must not live in fear of discipline, would they chance to offend some institutional official or even an influential segment of the generalpublic You are life members of a distinguished and rapidly developing university. In the long run, the alumni of American universities are responsible for what each institution becomes. They constitute the dominant groups of citizens in these republics of letters. As such they hold the ultimate destinies of the universities in their hands. The future and welfare of the University of Buffalo, therefore, will be largely determined by what you and thousands of other graduatesthink it should be; in short, by your idea of a university, and by the influence you exert in the support of that idea "**■ . .. . .. .. . Baccalattreatt Addras, Univtnity ofBuffalo dtlivmd on Jtmi 4, 1950 Alumni 4 �Samuel p. capen 1878-1956 by Dr. Earl J. McGrath, BA'2B, MA'3O It was in the fall of 1923 that I first saw Dr. SamuelP. Capcn, when he had been Chancellor of the University for less than a year. For most of the thirty-three years, it was my good fortune to be associated with him in one capacity or another, and, as the years passed, our professional association matured into a warm personal friendship which afforded some of the most rewarding experiences of my life. It would not be difficult to document Dr. Capen's preeminent position in American higher education. From the time he became specialist in higher education in the United States Office of Education more than forty yearsago to the day he left the chancellorship of the University, he was recognized throughout the United States as one of America's great educational statesmen. There is, regrettably, no comprehensive history of higher education in this country, but when it is written, Samuel Paul Capen will be one of the illustrious and influential figures of the first half of the twentieth century. Others will accurately record for posterity Dr. Capen's achievements at the University of Buffalo and on the national scene. On this occasion, Ihave been asked to recall some of the traits of personality and character which it was my good fortune to have an opportunity to observe in close personal association with him over a quarter of a century. To some who knew him only casually, he may have seemed to be austere and cold. This impression was doubtless conveyed by his conviction that a man in public office, whether it be in a government or a private organization, in a very real sense symbolized the institution he represented. Hence, he believed that an official should exhibit in his own personal conduct those qualities for which the institution should stand—integrity, dedication to the public good, propriety, and seriousness of purpose. He frowned upon frivolity, indelicacy, or indifference to public opinion. Yet his was a warm and considerate personality, and though his close friendships may have been few, they were rich and lasting. He was unusually sensitive to the feelings of others and considerate of their welfare. In spite of the rigid standard of conduct he imposed upon himself, he was kindly and understanding in his appraisal of others and especially restrained in imposing his own convictions on other men. This attitude was frequently revealed in his advice to others. He was always ready and willing to counsel with those who felt the need of help in dealing with a serious personal or professional problem. Many times through the years, I was amazed at the many hours he would give out of a very busy life in talking with persons who sought his advice. Yet he never, at least in mypersonal experience, would make a final decisionfor anyone. For he believed completely in personal freedom and self-determination of one's destiny. Hence, it was his practice to explore various courses of action and their probable consequences, his wisdom bringing to bear on these matters factors and influences frequently overlooked by those of less mature judgment and foresight, but, in the end, he would invariably add, "But this is only as I see it, and you will have to make your own decision." The quality that endeared him most to those who knew him well was his infectious and subtle humor. This capacity to see the comic and amusing in the ordinary daily activities of men, including his own, was uncommon. His capacity for hearty and sustained laughter was great indeed. On some occasions I saw him laugh until tears came to his eyes and sometimes it seemed to me that he gained the greatest fun from relating anecdotes in which he himselfwas the central figure in an amusing situation. Dr. Capcn spent many summers on the Maine coast. He loved the New England region and often spoke of his experiences there, especially those relating to sailing. One of the most amusing anecdotes was concerned with his running a sailing vessel aground during his youth and the ridicule he was subjected to by the local devotees of the art and science of seamanship. Another is concerned with the simple dress he wore at his summer home. He was hardly distinguishable from the natives. On one occasion a wealthy man drove up in a Cadillac in front of the general store and, seeing Dr. Capen on the steps, said to him, "My good man, I'll give youfive dollars if you will row me over to the island." Dr. Capen enjoyed relating these tales which, to others, revealed not only his keen sense of humor, butmore particularly his basic modesty and humility, and his essential greatness of mindand spirit. Another quality of character which we might well emulate in these days of disturbance and uncertainty was his clear vision of a life objective and his resolute pursuit of a goal. He saw in the fragmented, simple, and little-known divisions of the University of Buffalo in 1922 the great future urban university which it is today. The early years of thereconstituted university, beginning in 1922, were filled with frustration, lack of material resources, public indifference, false charges ofradicalism, and sometimes even personal attack on the views and the character of theChancellor. Through these years he had many opportunities to go elsewhere to positions ofgreater immediate eminence and financial reward. To all these he turned a deaf ear andrenewed his faith and his efforts in the growing University of Buffalo. This institution, for endless years, will stand as a monument to his achievements and as a symbol of his dedication to reason as the instrument for the solution of the ever-recurring problems of mankind. We alumni who have been the beneficiaries of his unparallelled leadership may well remind ourselves of those fitting words, "Here was a Caesar! When comes such another?" next Bulletin 5 �The Seat of Creativity Creative Problem Solving Institute Held at the University The University of Buffalo, pioneer in the teaching of creative problem-solving, held its Second Annual Creative ProblemSolving Institute July 9-11. Donald C. Mitchell, associate director of the Creative Education Foundation was director of this year's Institute. The Institute was co-sponsored by the Creative Education Foundation of Buffalo, which is intended to provide knowledge of educational methods for development of individual creativity and to provide training in the use of "brainstorming" and other creative procedures for organized problem-solving. All the sessions featured case histories of recent developments in creative education and in operational application of the principles and procedures in Alex F. Osborn's textbook "Applied Imagination." Mr. Osborn ispresident of the foundation and originator of the techniqueof brainstorming." The Institute was opened in Kleinhans Music Hall where a panel of fifteen men and women from various walks of life developed 125 solutions to the hoodlumism problem. The moderator of the panel was Willard A. Pleuthner, vice president of Batten, Barton, Durstine and Osborn Inc. For two additional days approximately 330 educators, industrial executives and military men from all parts of the country listened attentively and participated enthusiastically in the creative thinking sessions. Mr. Osborn defines "brainstorming" as "the method by which groups of people are organized to produce quantities of The opening night dinner was highlighted by the key- note address of Major General MatthewK. Deichelmann. The address was entitled "America's Need for Creative Power." A crowd of over 500 attendedthis session. ideas on specific problems, by means of joint and oral ideation." This method of problem-solving is essentially basic. When the average individual has a problem, he may seek a solution by discussing it with his friends, he may mull it over in his mind, or he may "talk to himself" or "think aloud." If, however, he has been indoctrinated with the theories of "creative imagination," he does none of these things as such. He goes into a "brainstorming" session, which to a degree combines all three of the problem-solving techniques of the individual. Three rules of creative problem solving were set forth by Mr. Osborn during his opening night address: "Judgment is ruled out: Criticism of ideas must be withheld until later. "Free Wheeling" is welcomed: The wilder the idea the better; it is easier to tame down than to think up. Quantity is wanted: The greater the numberof ideas, the more likelihood of good ones. Mr. Osbornpaid tribute to the pioneering of The University of Buffalo in the field of creative thinking. He said the University "allowed us to conduct experimental courses" in that subject seven years ago "despite the fact that we had no textbook and no syllabus." Mr. Osborn said that the basic credit for our propitious start belongs to The University of Buffalo and it was his fond hope that when the century's history of education is written, The University of Buffalo may be referred to as "the cradle of creativity." David L. Purdy of the General Electric Company addresses a general session on the subject of creative steps as used in the G.E. program. Alumni 6 �Alex Osborn, president of the Creative Education Foundation addressed leaders from various fields of education, government and business attending the opening dinner. Applauding Mr. Osborn are: (1. to r.) Colonel Robert R. Glass, Army War College; Dr. Claude E. Puffer, acting chancellor, University of Buffalo; dinner toastmaster Whitworth Ferguson, president, Ferguson Electric Construction Company, Buffalo; Maj. Gen. Matthew K. Deichelmann, Commandant, Air Force Reserve Officer's Training Corps and the Institute's keynote speaker; Seymour Knox, chairman of The University ofBuffalo Council. It wasn't all work. Interruptions took place for the serving of refreshments. One of the more colorful "breaks" was held on the lawn of Capen Hall. The pretty hostesses were volunteers for the three day session. Dr. Sidney J. Parnes, director of the 1956 Creative Retailing Institute of the University of Pittsburgh and a recent addition to the University of Buffalo faculty, leads his panel in discussion on the topic of"Areas of Application of Brainstorming." The panel consisted of Dr. Harold Somers, dean of the School of Business Administration, University of Buffalo; Milton Brown, chief, Supervisor Development Branch, Office of Civilian Personnel, Dep't of the Army; GlennR. Cowan, B. F. GoodrichCo.; Edwin J. MacEwan, executive vice president, Paterson, New Jersey Chamber of Commerce; Dr. Daniel G. Pursuit, University of Southern California; and Donald Mitchell, associate director, Creative Education Foundations. Ninde Alspach ofGoodyear Tire and Rubber Co. solicits response from his workshop "the values of brainstorming, their direct and indirect benefits." The cochairman of the workshop, Douglas Thompson of the United States Rubber Co., writes down the ideas as they are produced from the "thinkshop" participants. group on Bulletin 7 �University Receives $10,000,000 From Hochstetter Estate University News Items The University of Buffalo was the recipient of a $10,000,000 bequest from the late Ralph Hochstetter. This amount represents the largest bequest the University has ever received and is in addition to the $290,000 Mr. Hochstetter be- queathed to the University for a new physics building to be known as Hochstettcr Hall. Mr. Hochstetter, president of Cliff Petroleum Co. died May 27, 1955- He was born in Buffalo November 3, 1869 and at the time of his death he lived at 152 Lincoln Parkway. Under the terms of the will, the royalties are "to be employed and separately administered as independent funds by the University for the support of research fellows who shall be graduates in medi- cine from recognized medical schools and who shall have completed the necessary preliminary training to enable them to engage in research in their chosen fields." The fellowships are to be known as the Dr. Henry C. Busweil and Bertha H. Buswell Fellowships (Mrs. Buswell was Mr. Hochstetter's sister). The bequest marked the end of a long and unhappy misunderstanding between the Medical School and the Buswell family. It began when the Niagara University Medical College with which Dr. Buswell was affiliated, went out of existence in 1898, leaving The University of Buffalo Medical School the only one in the area. Dr. Buswell, known as one of America's foremost diagnosticians, differed with members of the University Medical School faculty. Subsequently, when he needed medical treatment, he went to Rochester. When he died he left bequests to Rochester but none to Buffalo. Mr. Hochstetter also planned to leave the bulk of his fortune to The University of Rochester but became enough interested in The University of Buffalo to give money for the new physics building. Six physicians have been named Buswellresearch fellows in the University of Buffalo Medical School in accordance with the terms of the will. They are: Dr. Charles U. Lowe, director of research at the Children's Hospital and professor of pediatrics at the Medical School; Dr. Albert C. Rekate, MD'4O, assistant professor of medicine at the Medical School; Dr. George Rozsa, assistant professor of experimental pathology at the Medical School; Dr. John T. Sharp, MD'49, re- search fellow, American Heart Association, Buffalo General Hospital; Drs. Paul J. Lißassi and Vivian E. H. Brooks, surgical residents, Buffalo General Hos- pital. Dr. Parnes Named Creative Education Director Dr. Sidney j. Parncs of Pittsburgh has been appointed director of creative education in Millard Fillmore College. Since 1950 Dr. Parnes has been an assistant professor in the department of vocational education at the University of Pittsburgh. He also was field supervisor of Pitt's adult distributive education program and during the past six years has developed adult education programs in 34 Western Pennsylvania cities. Dr. Parnes also served as director of the Creative Retailing Institute at Pitt last spring. His duties at The University of Buffalo will include planning, promoting and coordinating the annual UB Creative Problem Solving Instituteand to teach courses in creative education. DR. PARNES Dr. Plesur Appointed D.G.T.S. Director Dr. Milton Plesur, MA'49, has been appointed acting director of the University's Division of General and Technical Studies. Dr. Plesur succeeds Charles M. Fogel, BA'35, MA'3B, director of both the Division of General and Technical Studies and of the University Industry Liaison Office since 1952. Mr. Fogel will continue as liaison office headand will have increased Engineering School instruction responsi- bilities. Dr. Plesur is a graduate of Bennett High School in Buffalo.

Dr. Plesur has taught in the Buffalo public schools and LaSalle High School in Niagara Falls. He has been a lecturer in general studies and assistant to the director of the division since September 1955. He was recently promoted to assistant professor. The new director is a member of the American Historical Association, National Councilfor the Social Studies, New York State Council for the Social Studies, New York State Teachers Association, American Association of University Professors and Buffalo Council on World Affairs.

Here students meet friends, make new ones, and spend their free time playing, relaxing or serving on the various committees helping to plan its many programs. From early morning to late at night, seven days a week, the doors of Norton are open to all students, faculty, and alumni, whowish to use its facilities. The facilities are many and varied, and include a cafeteria and private dining rooms seating over 600 people, a snack bar seating 300, a game room with billiards, table tennis and cards, a bookstore where you can purchase anything from textbooks to U.B. baby booties, conference rooms, study rooms, Photography Club darkroom, Publicity Workshop, Offices for the student directory, Bufas , a gathering place for many of the students, is bright, ly decorated.

There are lounges for men and women and a Music Room equipped with a High-Fidelity System. Among the many services rendered by Norton Hall are ditto and mimeograph, travel information, theater discount cards, a lobby counter, (where cigarettes, candy may be purchased, checks cashed and information given) organizational and individual mail boxes, inter-campus and public telephones and a reservation desk for meeting and conference rooms within the building. In order to provide these many services fifty-four students were employed as parttime employees in the various departments and earned over $8,000 to help them with their tuition and fees. These are in addition to the regular fifteen full time members of the Staff exclusive of the bookstore and cafeteria. Another one of the important features of Norton is its program of events organized entirely by students who make up the Program Committee assisted by a full time staff person known as the Pro- gram Coordinator. The Program Committee consists of the Chairman of six sub-committees namely, Dance, Mixer, Music, Publicity, Recreation, Visual Arts with a general chairman and secretary. Together they coordinate the programs to include a balance of social, recreational and cultural activities. Last year this committee offered to the membership of Norton Hall, fifty-nine events with an attendance total of over 17,000. Among the events offered entirely free of charge are: Coffee hours, Open Houses, exam refreshment hours, Stunt Night, community sings, record and "live concerts," tournaments in pinochle, bridge, billiards, table tennis, etc. Dances include Friday nights in the Snack Bar, Homecoming Eve, Harvest, Moving Up Day, and the highlight of the fall semester, The Silver Ball, held before Christmas. A MusicRoom, operated by the Music Committee has a record collection ranging from Bach to Brubeck including operas, musical comedies, jazz and even Harry Belafonte.

Bulletin 13 �Bulls' 13-6 Win Over Carnegie Tech Highlights Homecoming Celebration What has been termed "the greatest homecoming" in the history of the University of Buffalo unfolded on Friday, September 28, and continued on until the early hours of Sunday, September 30th. The climax of the three day annual event was a thrilling University of Buffalo "Bulls" 13 to 6 victory over the Carnegie Tech "Tartans" at Rotary Field on a beautiful Saturday afternoon. The "Bulls," fresh from their 26-12 victory the week before over Cortland State, got off on the wrong side of the Scoreboard as Carnegie Tech tallied the first six points. But Buffalo was quick to retaliate by scoring early in the second quarter with Lou Reale crashing over from the 1 yard line for the score. The score was 6-6 at the half when Dr. Clifford C. Furnas exhorted the returning alumni and students to "get behind this team and give them all your support to win this game." The encouragement from alumni and students sparked the Bulls to 4th quarter score with co-captain Dick Doll, Lou Reale, Ken Born and Chuck Daniels cracking the "Tartans" line for vital yardage. Ken Born, a Rochester, N. Y. sophomore, scored the second touchdown. Norm Pyzikiewicz, co-captain, kicked the extra point. Thrills were a dime a dozen in the last five minutes of the game. Fine defensive play by Doll, Dick Van Volkenburg of Hamburg, N. V., Jim Keats, of Johnsonburg, Pa., and Elmira's bigFran Woidzik kept the "Tartans" away from the goal line. It was a fine, hard fought ballgame, a credit to the loser as well as the victor. The record crowd of over 7,000 was pleased by the exciting action. The students started thingsrolling for the hectic weekend with a football rally on Friday night. The rally began by choosing a Homecoming Queen.

Her attendants were Penny Ponikowski and Marge McDonnell. Miss Smith reigned at the Friday night Student Homecoming Dance at Norton Union, and also occupied a seat of prominence at the Homecoming Football game. The student rally continued with a snake-torch dance from Norton Hall through the dormitory area over to Rotary Field. The cheering and singing was loud and enthusiastic. The program also consisted of a few words of encouragement from Ted Siekmann, director of alumni relations, and Dr. Merton Ertell, assistant vice-chancellor.

Dr. Puffer and Dr. Furnas spoke briefly to the dinner guests. If you are an alumnus and you missed the September 29 Homecoming events, we are sorry. Perhaps you can make plans for next year. The tentative dates for next year, 1957, are October 12, Buffalo vs. Western Reserve, or November 9, Buffalo vs. Cortland State. This year things were great; next year we'll try to make them better.

Alumni �Your University Its Purpose, Objectives and Philosophy of Education The following report is a section of the data that was presented for consideration to the Commission on Institutions of Higher Education, Middle States Association of Colleges and Secondary Schools. The "evaluation team" of educational experts was on campus October 29, 30 aod 31 for an intensive study of the University. The survey is made every ten years, and a year before the team arrives the institution carries on a self-survey, studying its own resources and the work its graduates are accomplishing. Nearly fifty top teachers, university administrators and representatives of professional societies made up the group examining university records, inspecting campus buildings and laboratory equipment, talking with faculty members about their work and dropping in on classroom sessions. The team's findings will be made available to University of Buffalo officials as a guide for planning. They will also provide the Middle States Association with a documented basis for ruling on continuation of The University of Buffalo as a fully accredited member. The first thirty-one pages of the report deal with subjects of interest to every alumnus. To my knowledge, this is the first publication of the University's purposes, objectives and philosophy of education to reach all alumni. It makes extremely interesting reading and is most important to you in understanding your university. WHAT ARE THE GENERAL PURPOSES TO WHICH THE INSTITUTION IS COMMITTED BY REASON OF ITS CHARTER, LEGAL REQUIREMENTS OR OTHER BASIC A final amendment of the charter, approved in 1950 by the Board ofRegents of the University of the State of New York, authorized the University to construct and maintain a hospital OBLIGATIONS? The founders of The University of Buffalo in 1846 discerned the need for a medical school in the City of Buffalo and proceeded to establish such a school and to provide for the future establishment of a whole university. Though its charter did not by any means so restrict it, nevertheless the University then and long thereafter consisted solely of a medical school. Moreover, the second school to be fostered under its auspices, the Schoolof Pharmacy, founded in 1886, was obviously connected with the interests of the first. Professionally related to both these divisions, the School of Dentistry was established in 1892. The more recent establishment in 1930 of instruction in nursing and in 1940 of the School of Nursing reflected the same concern that prompted the founding of the older divisions, namely, the preparation of those who aspire to a recognized profession connected with the healing arts. Historical Development: The original charter incorporating The University of Buffalo, granted May 11, 1846, by the Legislature of the State of New York, constituted the University as "a body corporate ... for the purpose of promoting literature and science by establishing and maintaining a University to be located in the City of Buffalo." It further provided that the University '■may confer such literary honors, degrees and diplomas as are usually granted by any university, college or seminary of learning in the United States; and it may also, on the nomination of the medical faculty grant diplomas conferring the Degree of Doctor of Medicine ." .. In 1859, the charter was amended by the Legislature to authorize the University "to found, establish, maintain and regulate, in the City of Buffalo, a school for the academical instruction of young men, preparatory to a collegiate education, and to provide therein, or in its academical department, when founded, or both, for instructionin practical mechanical science, mining, engineering, and in the science of teaching." A further amendment in 1909 provided for the cancellation of the capital stock in the University, which had been authorized in 1846, and provided further that, upon the cancellation, the institution would become an "incorporated University having the powers to acquire real estate, to establish colleges, to impart instruction, to grant degrees, and to do all other things heretofore authorized to be done by it, by or through its Council, instructors, teachers, professors, curators, officers, vice-chancellors, and chancellors, duly selected for such purposes." and to offer the services usually connected therewith. Bulletin 3 �Taking advantage of the broad powers granted by the charter of offering instruction and conferring degrees in any branch of academic or professional training, the University continued its policy of expansion with the addition of the School of Law in 1891 and the School of Pedagogy in 1895- The latter School was discontinued in 1898 after only three years of existence. A College of Arts and Sciences, which traditionally has been the nucleus of most universities, was founded relatively late in the history of The University of Buffalo. The immediate and urgent cause of its beginning in 1913 was a ruling by the American Medical Association that schools of medicine must require at least one year of college training in order to be listed as approved. This ruling prompted the Council of the University, in the interests of its own medical school, to authorize a number of pre-professional but liberal courses and to hope that they might in time become, as in fact they became, the core of a genuinecollege. This authorization, prompted as it was, is important in the University not only in the historical sense but also in the sense that it sheds light upon the close relationship between liberal learning and the profession of medicine; and hence reflects the premise that a liberal education undergirds the professional curriculum. Such disciplines are exemplified by the School of Law, established in 1891, the School of Business Administration, 1927, the Schoolof Education, 1931, the School of Social Work, 1936, and the School of Engineering, 1946. Although founded much later than the School of Medicine, the other professional schools were likewise established in response to a demand from the community as well as from the professions themselves that the means be afforded in the Buffalo area for the transmission and advancement of professional learning. In 1939 the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences was established. Auxiliary to the professional schools as well as to the College of Arts and Sciences arc the Summer Session, founded in 1915* the Evening Session, Millard Fillmore College, founded in 1923, and most recently the Division of General and Technical Studies which was inaugurated in 1950. The establishment of this division brought the University's total number of divisions to its present fourteen. In 1909, the University was fortunate to secure the 106 acre site of the county almshouse and hospital (now Hayes Hall) for its campus. In later years, 72 acres were added. The endowment campaigns of 1920, 1929,1946 and the Development Campaign of 1951, as well as various individual gifts, have made possible the erection of campus buildings on the present 178 acres which form one of the most spacious campuses of urban universities. In addition to the University's physical plant, which is valued at almost eighteen millions of dollars, the University, which was unendowed until 1915, now has an endowment of over nine millions of dollars (book value). Geographical Area of Service: Although the University welcomes the opportunity to serve without geographical limitations, it primarily serves Western New York, defined as the Eighth Judicial District, and to a lesser extent serves the bordering areas of the Niagara Peninsula, Northwestern Pennsylvania and Northeastern Ohio. The Schools of Medicine, Pharmacy, Dentistry, Law, Social Work, and Engineering afford the only full collegiate preparation in their respective fields in this area. The University itself is the largest independent and non-sectarian institution of higher learning in this region. Few universities in this country are more closely identified with and interwoven into the cultural and professional life of their environs. Metropolitan Buffalo, consisting of approxi- mately one million inhabitants, is one of the most significant industrial and commercial districts of the continent. It is pre- First home of the Medical College. eminent as a transportation center, as a center of the chemical industry, of electric power production and of milling enterprise. It is also of great importance in iron and steel production, the aircraft industry, and in automotive assembly. The growth of the departments of chemistry and physics, as well as the inception of the School of Engineering, reflects this diversified economic activity. The University supplies the community with educated manpower which this economic life requires. While more specific demands are placed upon the School of Business Administration, the effects extend even to the development of the fields of industrial law and industrial medicine. Despite the position of the Buffalo area in industry and commerce, the counties of the region are of such agricultural importance as to classify them among the richest in the country in the value of their crops. While the University has not developed an agricultural school to meet the vocational needs of farming communities, it has nevertheless produced most of the professional personnel upon which those communities rely for their medical, dental, legal and pharmaceutical services as well as much of the educational,social, technical, nursing, engineering, business and civic services. In addition these rural communities continue to develop a certain amount of industrial life distinct from, yet connected with, the metropolitan area. Such communities create a steadily mounting demandfor Universityprepared leadership. The University of Buffalo supplies the region with educated manpower in the arts, sciences, and professions which is needed for its welfare and progress. Typically, in 1954, all the judges of the City Court of Buffalo and the County Court of Erie County, the majority of the judges of the Supreme Court of the Eighth Judicial District as well as most of the members of the bar were alumni of the Law School of the University. An overwhelming proportion of the physicians and dentists of the area are graduates of the medical and dental schools. An everincreasing proportion of the members of the other professions are products of the more recent professional schools. Alumni 4 �WHAT ARE THE INSTITUTION'S SPECIFIC OBJECTIVES? A regional university must be concerned with providing the opportunity of learning to all qualified members of the community including those to whom it might otherwise be denied. This was recognized by the Council of the University some forty years ago when it took occasion to state: "Our only desire has been to place this city where it belongs in matters of education; to give to every youngman and woman, Catholic or Protestant, Jew or Gentile, an opportunity to obtain in Buffalo an education that willfit them for life as well as any which may today be obtained elsewhere by those who have to procure it. .." This need, so long ago apprehended, has recently been dramatized, but for different reasons, by the influx of veterans following the last war, which continues to some extent to this day. Many of these veterans, like so many of the University's earlier constituency, were primarily interested in preparation for professions. However, the University's emphasis, in spite of its historic origins, has not been exclusively professional. Rather it has been recognized, both during the long term of Dr. Capen's chancellorship, and during the recent periods of Dr. McConnell's and Dr. Furnas' that professional training as such is not the sole end of a University, and that that end becomes most intelligible in the light of what a College of Arts and Sciences is intended to promote. Dr. Capen has stated: the wealth "... the primary concerns of the college of arts and sciences are the interpretation of the problems of society, the pursuit of learning for the sake of learning, the search for truth. It may thus become at once the instrument whereby the community gets specific tasks performed and the symbol ofthe community's most generous aspirations." Dr. McConnell has added, "In American universities, education for most of the professions is based on courses in the liberal arts. But it is unfortunate if the liberal arts are conceived of only as preparatory to specialized training. Their true function is to prepare men and women for life in the broadest and highest sense ... we may say that the function of the College is not primarily to teach science for physicians, economics for business men, constitutional history for lawyers, or psychology for teachers ... its true purpose is to give reason, meaning, freedom and direction to life. This does not mean that liberal education should be sharply separate from professional education. Rather the liberal spirit should infuse all learning in the University, giving to the whole educational enterprise a unified spirit." This philosophy is manifest in the application of the principles offreedom of inquiry which is as germane to sound professional training as it is to liberal training itself. It is hoped that this concept so essential to a university and basically so a part of American political philosophy will permeate the community to the mutual strengthening of both academic and civic life. Hence the purposes of the University reflect all these factors and may be said to include at least the following: 1. Deliberately and officially to foster the advancement of knowledge by: (a) offering instruction in the various liberal disciplines and areas of professional study which are represented in the constituent schools of the University, and (b) sponsoring, providing resources for, and conducting research, both as an institutional affair and as a responsibility of individual members of the University staff. 2. To be an integral part of the community and region in Dr. Clifford C. Furnas, Chancellorof the University since 1954, stands between the late Dr. Samuel P. Capen, who was Chancellor from 1922 to 1951 and Dr. T. Raymond McConnell, Chancellor of The University of Buffalo from 1951 to 1954; which it is situated, not only by providing a local opportunity for study and learning to students, and for teaching and research to its professors; but also by: (a) working with industry, commerce, government and the institutions for educational, cultural and social welfare in finding answers to current problems; (b)furnishing special services which are appropriate to a university but which other agencies might not be ready to establish or able to afford; (c) keeping the professions informed of new scientific discoveries and interpretations which bear on the daily work of practitioners; (d) offering an opportunity for an understanding of the cultures of the world; and more especially (c) informing citizens of all ages and occupations ofthe great moral, political, and aesthetic values which have been distilled out of the recorded history of civilization. 3- To provide an opportunity for further education, beyond the secondary level, for all young people and adults who are qualified and who can benefit from such training, and to encourageand assist each of its students to go as far in the pursuit of his own education as all therelevant circumstances will permit. As an integral phase of this opportunity, provision is made for the development of moral and spiritual values, of physical skills and of the attributes of more effective citizen- ship. 4. In order that these purposes can be accomplished the University is committed to provide a setting in which intellectual freedom may be exercised and the search for truth may be prosecuted unhampered from without, from above, or from within. Although, as has been said above, the University's distinctive area of service has been Western New York, it already has a number of students from many other parts of the country as well as from foreign countries. In the future the University would hope that the proportion which such students bear to the student body as a wholewould increase. In the line of service on a national and internationalscale the University has been called upon repeatedly to provide special educational, scientific, and cultural programs. The expectation is that as the University's resources expand there will be additional opportunities for greater service of this kind. Bulletin 5 �'The University has endeavored throughout its life to become an integral and respected part of the community in which it is situated." The University will continue to anticipate needs with respect it should take the initiative as well as endeavor to fill those needs which are defined by the community. to which HOW RECENTLY, AND BY WHOM, WAS THIS DEFINITION OF OBJECTIVES DEVELOPED AND ADOPTED OR REVIEWED? The foregoing statement of educational philosophy and objectives was prepared during the period 1954 through 1955The Faculty Advisory Committee of the University was requested to prepare a preliminary statement of objectives. The preliminary statement was then reviewed and revised by a special review committee composed of members of the executive committees of the faculties of the several divisions, and was submitted by this group to the Senate of the University which was convened for the specific purpose of reviewing and acting upon the statement prepared by the special review committee. The statement was adoptedby the Senate in the spring of 1955The statement was then submitted to the Council of the University which accepted and endorsed it in the fall of 1955It is essential to note that this statement of objectives represents basically a codification of the purposes which traditionally have been observed throughout the development and expansion of the University, and hence represents no break with the past. It is, in essence, a drawing together for the institution as a whole of the individually expressed (and sometimes unexpressed) philosophy and purposes for the several divisions whicli comprise the University. IN WHAT RESPECTS HAVE THE OBJECTIVES BEEN INFLUENCED BY EXTERNAL AGENCIES? As a privately endowed, privately controlled and nonsectarian institution, which conceives its role primarily as a regionaluniversity, and which is committed to a setting in w^hich intellectual freedom may be exercised and the search for truth may be prosecuted unhampered from without, from above, or from within, it must be said at the outset that The University of Buffalo accepts no control or domination from any external agency, except, of course, from duly constituted legal authorities including the Board of Regents of the State of New York. This is not to say, however, that the University has been unresponsive to the needs of the society in which it makes its place or of the more specific needs of specific groups of that society. As was indicated in the preceding answers, the very beginnings of the institution were rooted in the discerned need in the community of Buffalo for a school of medicine. The subsequent expansion of the University has also been in response to the needs for instruction, research, service and leadership within the geographical area which it serves. It is fair to say, therefore, that the University has consistently endeavored to ascertain the needs of its society, both regional as well as supra-regional, and to respond to those needs to the fullest extent of its resources and abilities. To these extents its purposes and objectives have been influenced by external agencies. Yet, at the same time, the University has also endeavored to exercise a good measure of leadership. One or two current examples of this combination of responsiveness and leadership will illustrate the nature of the University's role. One of the critical needs of society in general as well as of the Western New York region is for greatly expanded research and instructional activity in the area of peaceful use of nuclear energy: In medicine, in the physical sciences, in technology and in the social sciences. The University has been working for something more than a year to establish a Nuclear Reactor and research facility on its campus and to initiate a comprehensive research and instructional program in several of the facets of inquiry which are integral phases of peaceful applications of atomic energy. For a number of years, there has been developing in the Buffalo area a growing awareness of the need for increased attention to the fine arts: Music, visual arts and theater. The University has cultivated and encouraged this development as a significant contribution to cultural stature of the community and has responded specifically by providing some increased attention in the area of drama and speech, by organizing a Department of Musicand by acquiring and expanding the formerly independent Albright Art School—all in the College of Arts Alumni 6 �"The University endeavors to provide the broadest possible educational opportunity to the young people and adults of its area.' and Sciences. At the present time, plans are well under way for the construction of a Fine Arts Center, the first unit of which, building for music and visual arts, will be completed in the fall of 1957In both these instances, the University demonstrates the continuation of its long established policy of responding to the needs of its society while at the same time exercising a substantial measure of leadership within its society. a many variables involved, it is probably somewhat premature to planningfigures. However, it may well be that an increase of between fifty and one hundred per cent will be set any exact called for." It is in these terms that the University is planning to impleits objectives in the years ahead. ment IN WHAT RESPECTS DO ITS IS THE INSTITUTION CONSIDERING CHANGES IN ITS OBJECTIVES? No changes in the basic purposes and objectives outlined above are contemplated. Like all other institutions of higher learning in the United States, the University is, of course, engaged in careful study of the most effective ways of implementing its objectives in the light of the tremendous expansion of student enrollments which are anticipated over the next decade and a half. The officers of the University, the Council of the University and in particular the University Senate have for some time been giving careful attention to this vitally important matter. In November, 1955, Chancellor Furnas submitted the following brief statement on development policy to the University Senate, "In view of the increasing population and the expanding demand for higher education for all American youth who are qualified, The University of Buffalo, as a private urban university, faces the urgent and practical problem of how best to prepare for and serve the educational needs of the Niagara Frontier area. In reaching our decision, it is essential that we give full weight to rhe implications of the tradition in our American democracy for providing the broadest educational opportunities for the youth of our country ' ... 'The University of Buffalorecognizes that its stewardship in the Niagara Frontier requires that we shall do our best for the foreseeable future to meet the educationalneeds of all those who come to us and who arc adequately qualified. To fulfill this responsibility for increased quantity, and at the same time not to dilute quality, we must plan for substantial increases in faculty and physical facilities for the next two decades. Because of the OBJECTIVES GIVE THE INSTITUTION INDIVIDUALITY, DIFFERENTIATING IT FROM OTHERS OF ITS TYPE? In a general sense, it may be said that the objectives of The University of Buffalo are the objectives of most universities: Excellence in instruction and opportunities provided to young people to learn and to grow in intelligence, physical skills and moral and spiritual values, and significant contributions to human knowledge. There are, however, two respects in which the objectives of this University do distinguish it from universities generally in the United States, although neither one may differentiate it from certain other independently supported, urban universities. The first of these is the extent to which the University endeavors to provide the broadest possible educational opportunity to the youngpeople and adults of its area. The University offers this opportunity in the first instance to the citizens of its geographical area but clearly does not limit it only to such persons. As was indicated in the answer to question two, the University strives to provide an opportunity for further education, beyond the secondary level, for all youngpeople and adults who are qualified and who can benefit from such training, and to encourage and assist each of its students to go as far in the pursuit of his own education as all the relevant circumstances will permit. In its interest in offering and willingness to provide such broad opportunity, the University is differentiated from other institutions of its type. The second aspect is the extent to which the University endeavors to be an integral part of the community and region in which it is situated. While the University is not a narrow institution, it has conceived its principal area of service to be Western New York —or the Niagara Frontier, as it is often Bulletin 7 �called. This geographical aspect must not be overstated, how- University draws its students and faculty from all parts of the United States and from several foreign countries. Nevertheless, the University has endeavored throughout its life to become an integral and respected part of the community in which it is situated. It has done this through rendering the wide variety of services to the community, which have been outlined above through responding to community needs, and through the trainingof leaders in community life and activities. This effort to identify, and to be identified, with the community, typified by the frequently used slogan "The University of Buffalo Serves the Community," does differentiate this institution ever, since the from others of its type. There is a final point which needs mention since it is of major consequence: the University's traditional maintenance and defense of academic freedom. The University is committed to the principle of freedom of inquiry and its officers and members have been leaders in the struggle to maintain intellectual freedom and the search for truth. IN WHAT CHARACTERISTICS OR AREAS OF ITS WORK. IF ANY, DOES THE INSTITUTION PARTICULARLY SEEK DISTINCTION? There are several characteristics of the University which have given it a considerable measure of distinction. Perhaps the most significant of these is the basic fact that it is a private institution which is dedicated to providing an essential public service. This is demonstrated by the ways in which the institution has responded to public needs and to the requirements of public welfare. For example, the University provides the only training in pharmacy, dentistry and social work in upstate New York, and the only training in medicine and law in Western New York. It enjoys, as a consequence, the distinction of providing its community with leaders, not only in the several professional areas but in general affairs as well. In addition, the University has provided innumerable services to the community, many of which have been mentioned above. Largely as a result of its efforts in the area of public service, the University has received strong recognition and support from the community. Press, church, industrial and civic organizations, and other groups have responded, particularly in the past forty years, with many tangible evidences of moral and financial support. A further characteristic is the extent to which the faculty participates in discussions and decisions in the area of educational policies. Examples of this broad participation are presented elsewhere in this report as well as in the several divisional reports. The high degree offaculty loyalty to the institution is an additional point. It is quite probable that this has been gained as a result of the policies of academic freedom and of broad faculty participation in the decision-making process. Whatever the explanation, it is true that the University does enjoy the loyalty of the faculty, many of whom have spent entire careers in its service. Anotherrather significant distinguishing characteristic is the interest taken in the University by the alumni. Alumni leadership has been strong and active, and alumni support has been quite substantial. Theseveral divisionalparticipating funds are indicative of this interest and activity. The University is also noted for its contributions to science and higher education. For example, its faculty early inaugu- rated a tradition of distinction and experimentation by its revolutionary achievements in the field of medicine. Dr. James P. White introduced clinical obstetrics into the college curriculum as early as 1850. Experimentation on living animals was first practiced in America by Dr. John C. Dalton, and Dr. Julius Miner became noted for his advocacy of the enucleation of ovarian tumors. In 1898, the New York State Legislature granted to the Medical School the first appropriation ever made from public funds for the purpose of combating the ravages of cancer. Cortin, a hormone which proved to be a remedy for Addison's disease, was discovered at the University in 1930. During World War 11, a new development in transfusions, utilizing the A and B blood factor, was devised. An unprecedented plan was adopted in 192.3 by the School of Dentistry when it stipulated the same entrance requirements as prevailed in the School of Medicine and provided that the first half of the dental course should be identical with the first half of the medical course, that is, courses conducted by the basic science departments in the Medical School. Among other contributions are the tutorial plan and the program of anticipatory examinations. In 1931, the College of Arts and Sciences departed from a prescribed liberal arts curriculum and established a tutorial programunder which upperclassmen engage in cooperative, creative study rather than being restricted to the taking of required courses. The tutorialplan has continually attracted the attention of colleges throughout the country. The University was likewise a pioneer in the use of anticipatory or college credit examinations which enable gifted students to earn college credit prior to college entrance and thereby avoid duplication of courses already taken or knowledge already acquired. The original plan was supported by a grant from the Carnegie Foundation. This tradition of experimentation and contribution has continued and is continuing to be pressed. The development of a Nuclear Reactor Centerfor research, experimentation and study has already been mentioned. When it becomes operational, it will represent a significant step in advancing frontiers of Alumni 8 �knowledge as well as in contributing further to the service which the University is rendering. Many other significant areas of experimentation are also developing: The Chronic Disease Research Institute, founded in 1950; the development of a graduate program with the Roswell Park Memorial Institute; the establishment of the Western New York School of Study Coun- cil; the initiation of new programs in the fine arts, linguistics, reading, executive development and management training. In addition there are under way experimental programs in the development of techniques looking toward more effective utilization of teaching and physical resources in order better to meet the demandswhich are anticipated over the next two decades. Another distinguishing characteristic of the University is the conservative and stable financial management which has been practiced over the years. In spite of very limited resources, the Council and administrative officers have given primary attention and emphasis to educational affairs, plans and policies. They have endeavored to obtain maximum educational advantage from every appropriation and at the same time have provided for continuous and sound growth. It is almost unnecessary to repeat that underlying all these characteristics and developments is the fundamental characteristic of intellectual freedom. COULD ANY OF YOUR INSTRUCTIONAL PROGRAMS OR NONINSTRUCTIONAL ACTIVITIES JUSTIFIABLY BE QUESTIONED AS UNRELATED TO YOUR OBJECTIVES? The University of Buffalo is, as has been indicated, a privately endowed institution. Its endowment has been relatively modest and it has, over the years, been dependent upon revenues from tuition for the major portion of its income. This has necessitated careful and continuing scrutiny of all existing programs and activities, and of all proposals for additions thereto, to insure consistency with the basic objectives of the institution. Consequently, it is not only possible but also necessary to affirm that the instructional programs and noninstructional activities are all related to the objectives of the institution. WHAT, BRIEFLY, IS THE INSTITUTION'S PHILOSOPHY OF EDUCATION? The University firmly believes: (a) that it should provide an opportunity for further education, beyond the secondary level, for all youngpeople and adults who are qualified and who can benefit from such training, and that it should encourage and assist each of its students to go as far in the pursuit of his own education as all the relevant circumstances will permit; (b) that such opportunity should be afforded in the first instance to the citizens of its geographical region, but that it should by no means be limited only to them; (c) that its curriculums should be sound in all respects, and that its course offerings, its instruction, its research and its services should be of the highest possible caliber; (d) that its educational programs should stress breadth of preparation and freedom of choice of programs and of electives wherever possible; (c) that its programs should place proper emphasis upon both the liberal arts and sciences as preparation for life and upon professional education for careers, and in addition should emphasize growth in moraland spiritual values, physical skills and good citizenship; (f) that its noninstructional activities should be directed toward the development of social skills, leadership and awarenessof broader social responsibilities both of its students and of the larger community which it serves; (g) that it should strive constantly to provide leadership in its community in both cultural and professional matters; (h) finally, that all its educational ventures should be conducted in a fundamental context offreedom of inquiry. WHAT PLANS AND CHANGES IN PROGRAMS HAVE BEEN MADE OR ARE BEING CONSIDERED FOR THE NEXT DECADE? WHAT IS THEIR STATUS? WHO HAVE PARTICIPATED IN THE DECISION? Throughout its history, The University of Buffalo has been constantly concerned with growth, development and improvement of its programs and activities. Some sense of its progress has been provided in the previous answers: It has moved from one division to fourteen and from a handful of students to something over eleven thousand students in its one hundred ten years of existence; much of this development has come within the past generation. Ithas never permitted itself to become a static institution. Like all other institutions of higher education today, it is confronted with the major task and responsibility of providing sound educational opportunities for a rapidly increasing number of prospective students who are qualified. This task is of major consequence at the present time; it is being approached from two directions, organization and policy. During the past year, the administrative organization of the University was revised by the Council of the University to provide for four top-level administrative officers subordinate to the Chancellor: Vice-Chancellorfor Business Affairs and Treasurer, Vice-Chancellor for Educational Affairs, Vice-Chancellor for Planning and Development, and Vice-Chancellorfor Research.* This new structure will provide the flexibility and division of labor necessary to meet and resolve administratively the many problems involved in the future progress of the University. At the policy level, the University Senate was reorganized in 1953-1954, and several committees of this body, Executive, Educational Policy and Planning, Student Affairs, and Professional and Community Service, are currently studying, along with the Faculty Advisory Committee, the various facets of the educational problems which will be faced in the next decade. The matter of expansion of physical facilities, which is of considerable significance for this institution, has been given full consideration by the Council, administrative officers, divisional and departmental faculties. Plans are moving forward rapidly in this area: A new Physics building, Hochstetter Hall, was completed in the fall of 1956; one section of the Fine Arts Center and an eleven-story residence hall are scheduledfor completion in the fall of 1957; the completion ofthe medical school building by construction of Sherman Hall is planned; a health science center (for nursing, pharmacy and biology), and a chemistry and chemical engineering building are in the preliminary planning stages; and a new classroom building, an ROTC building and a newstudent union, among others, are in *The first three of these positions have been filled. It is anticipated that the fourth (Research) will be filled shortly. Bulletin 9 �the discussion stage. As soon as funds are in hand, the construction of these latter units will proceed. It is anticipated that most of them will be constructed within the next five years. The second phase of planning is concerned with the improvement and expansion of existing programs of study and of research programs. As is indicated in the separate reports of the several divisions of the University, the divisional faculties are engaged in continuing study of, and improvement in, the existing instructional programs of their respective divisions. In addition to this self-study and improvement, there are in a development or operational phase several additional programs: (a) Nuclear Reactor Project. As mentioned previously, work is under way leading to the construction of a Nuclear reactor on the University campus and to the development of a correlative nuclear research and instructional program. The former aspect is under the direction of a special assistant to the Chancellor and is pointed in the direction of obtaining substantial subscriptions from industrial firms for the formation of a separate research corporation. The latter aspect is being guided by a faculty committee representative of all the divisions of the University concerned with peaceful application of nuclear energy; (b) Rosuell Park Memorial Institute. The Graduate School of Arts and Sciences is engaged in developing a graduate and research program in the medical and biological sciences with the staff of this State institute for the study of malignant diseases; (c) Fine Arts Center. Under the direction of the departmental faculties of the College of Arts and Sciences, programs in music, drama and theater, and the visual arts are being expanded and enlarged. A Fine Arts Center, the first unit of which is to be completed in 1957, will house these activities, and will provide for the developing Bachelor of Arts and Bachelor of Fine Arts programs in these areas; (d) Chemical Engineering and CivilEngineering. Discussions are under way look- ing toward preliminary proposals for a new baccalaureate and masters degree program in chemical engineering and in civil engineering; (c) ContractResearch. A faculty committee has been studying policies for improving and increasing the amount of research activities at the University, particularly in the area of contract research. This committee submitted a preliminary report to the Chancellor in 1955-1956. It is anticipated that the question ofresearch policies will be discussed in detail by the University Senate and its committees during the present year; (0 Graduate Studies. A gradual expansion of graduate work, including further strengthening of laboratory and library facilities, is in process and (g) School of General and Technical Studies. Discussion is under way of a proposal to combine into one academic division a number of vocationally oriented programs including the curriculums of the Division of General and Technical Studies, medical technology, museum administration, occupational and physical therapy, x-ray technology, the fouryearretailing program, physical educationfor men and women, and air science. This division would be administered by a dean and an assistant, would have an appropriate faculty and would recommend candidates for degrees in both the four- and twoyear programs and the fifth-year certificates. A third phase of planning relates to the improvement of student activities and services. During the year 1955-1956, a committee composed of student representatives from the student Board of Managers and of representatives of the Dean of Students Office has been developing a new structure for student government at the University. In addition, with provision for the position of Coordinator of Student Activities in the Dean of Students Office, increased attention is being given to the improvement of the already numerous student activities on the This is the architect's model of the Music and Fine Arts Cen ter. The music building is now under construction. The University residence halls, which were first opened in 1953, now house approximately 650 students. The new residence hall mentioned above will house another 440 students. Within the next decade, it is contemplated that additional residence hall and dining facilities will be constructed to accommodate between 500 and 1,500 additional students from outside the immediate commuting area. This will contribute to a more cosmopolitan composition of the student body with all of its attendant advantages both to the local students and to the ' out-of-to wners. *' In 1954, the Council of the University approved the Chancellor's proposal for a modest increase in attention to intramural and intercollegiate athletics, designed to bring the institution's program to a level more nearly commensurate with that which is normally associated with an urban institution of the size of the University. It is believed that there are wholesome advantages for students in an athletic program which provides opportunities for increased participation, for team work and for leadership training, as well as opportunities for increased esprit dc corps for the student body as a whole. The program is completely in keeping with the letter and spirit of the regulations of the National Collegiate Athletic Association and of the Eastern College Athletic Conference. There is clearly no attempt to overemphasize athletics. These represent some of the major plans and changes in program which have recently been evolved or are being consideredfor the next decade. They are indicative of the continuation of the policies of growth, expansion and improvement in programs, research, and activities which have been characteristic of this institution. campns. 10 Alumni �General Development Fund Goal — $8,650,000 First phase of 15 year over-all development program to help meet future demands of expanding enrollment The estimate from most educational prognosticators indicate a 100% to 140% increase in the number of youths that will be knocking at the doors of institutions of higher education in the next decade and a half. In order to meet the needs of these prospective students a ter- rific increase in assistance to privately supported colleges and universities must be realized. The University of Buffalo has manifested its intention to meet the future demands with the recent announcement of a general development campaign with a goal of $8,650,000 by April 1958. Dr. ClaudeE. Puffer, actingchancellor, has stated that the campaign represents the first phase of an over-all development program geared to be completed on the 125th anniversary of the University in 1971. The program will provide the facilities and staff necessitated by the expected doubling of enrollment in the next ten to fifteen years. Funds obtained from the "first phase" campaign will be used for the following purposes but not listed in any order of priority: 1. New classroom building and clinic and reconstruction to accommodate the College of Arts and Sciences, the School of Social Work and the School of Education—sl,4oo,ooo. 2. Chemistry building and facilities center $1,850,000. — 3. Health Sciences Center, housing the Schools of Pharmacy and Nursing, the Biology Department of the College of Arts and Sciences—sl,9so,ooo. 4. Music and Visual Arts Buildings of a Fine Arts Center—sl,2so,ooo. Bulletin 5. Physics Building—ssoo,ooo. 6. Cardiovascularresearch facilities and other medical research facilities —$700,-000. 7. Endowment for the support of the faculty and instruction—sl,ooo,ooo. Dr. Puffer emphasizedthat ■'each ofthe above needs is of equal and indeed, vital priority, if the University is to accommodate the inevitable additional enrollments coming to us in the next few years.'' 'The University serves the Niagara frontier region principally. Ifit is to continue to welcome to its campus the rapidly increasing number of applicants, it must have the physical facilities and the additional faculty to continue the effective and distinguished training which has played such a significant role in the tradition and history of its educational stewardship to the area." Dr. Clifford C. Furnas, chancellor of the University commented: "Certainly the University of Buffalo is one of the most important institutions in the Niagara Frontier. Its continued and growing effectiveness will, first of all, depend upon the support it receives. Necessarily, primary reliance will have to be placed on the friends of the University in the Niagara Frontier and upon the Alumni. As we move on to ever-greater stature, every participant can feel a sense of pride in the aid that he has given to the cause of higher education, which is the backbone of the preservation of the American way of life." Seymour H. Knox, chairman of the University of Buffalo Council, stated that the Council has given its formal authorization for the general development cam- paign. "It is vitally important that the goal be reached, and the support of the University increased," he said. "The cooperation and active campaigning of the entire University family will be indis- pensable." Mr. Charles H. Diefendorf, chairman of the executive committee of the Marine Trust Company and chairman of the campaign commented: "It is of utmost importance that the people of this area, in the Niagara Frontier specifically, and of the many counties of Western New York, offer their support to this campaign so that the University can continue to provide unqualified opportunities for the best in higher education. We are hopeful that all of those who received their training and experience at the University, will respond to this need of their alma mater, and through generous giving will assist in its desire to progress even further." Although plans for the fund-raising effort are not completed yet, Mr. Diefendorf indicated that if any one contribution substantially covers the cost of any of the proposed buildings, it will be entirely appropriate for the University to consider naming the building in honor of its donor. Lewis G. Harriman, chairman of the board, Manufacturers and Traders Trust Co., and R. Lindley Murray, chairman of the board, Hooker Electrochemical Co., will serve as associate chairmen of the campaign. Othercommittee members will be announced later. 11 �Streamlining Our Service " The Electronic Brain Takes Over Speedup Registration and Addressing to Alumni. to Return Necessary Complete Alumni Records. " Questionnaire to You don't run a Cadillac with a Model T engine. You can't operate a growing university with old-fashioned methods, either. Enrollment at The University of Buffalo has climbed steadily in the last three decades, and it's going to go a lot higher in the next ten or fifteen years. Increased enrollment is just another way of saying more students and eventually more alumni. The University is anxious to serve its students and alumni as effectively as possible. To do this requires modern methods and equipment. That is the reason your University has introduced the 1.8.M. system of record-keeping. We are interested in doing everything possible to operate along efficient and economical lines. The 1.8.M. system was put into operation in time for last February's registraand was used again for that purpose this fall. Results were most gratifying. Students no longer had to start the semester with a weary wait in line. Countless hours were saved, and the whole process ofregistration was streamlined and simtion, plified.

We may have a mailing which applies to a particular group of our alumni. Of course, each of the various divisions of the university has its own alumni group—medicine, law, etc. Again we can depend on the machine to select the cards for whatever group we need, and the information can be sent on its way quickly and accurately.

Another machine can select cards in any particular category at the rate of 240 per minute. For example, if you wanted to send our 2600 medical graduates some particular information, the machine would pick out their cards from 22,000 alumni in 40 minutes. We can also address either labels or No. 10 envelopes at the rate of 1200 per hour.

Bulletin 15 �The University of Buffalo "Bulls" closed their 1956 football season with an overall record of 5 wins and 3 losses. They defeated Cortland State, Carnegie Tech, Bucknell, St. Lawrence and Ohio Northern while losing to Western Reserve, Alfred and Hobart. The losses to Reserve and Alfred were by a touchdown apiece and depending upon which way the ball bounced, could have spelled victory rather than defeat. The 1956football season can be classed as a successful one from both the athletic aspect and from the attendance standpoint. TheBulls averaged 6500 spectators at their four home games, climaxed by a record turnout of over 9,000 for the Alfred game. 5-3 Record is Best in Five Years for Bulls Victories Over Carnegie Tech and Bucknell, Broken Attendance Records at Rotary Field Highlight Successful 1956 Football Season Valkenburg.

The victory left the Bulls with a 4-2 record. As a result of his efforts in the Bucknell game, Kubisty was named to the weekly All-East team. His five TD tosses also equalled a passing record which he shares equally with Paul Governaliof Columbia and Carroll Loweinstein of Harvard. The Bulls continued to roll with their high powered offense as they romped to DICK OFFENHAMER The University of Buffalo jumped off a great start with an impressive 26-12 victory over Cortland State in the opener. The Homecoming spectacle thrilled a Rotary Field crowd of over 7,000 when the Bulls posted a 13-6 win over the Carnegie Tech Tartans. (October Bulleto tin) The Bulls journeyed to Cleveland, Ohio and Western Reserve University to suffer theirfirst defeat of the seasonat the hands of the Red Cats. It was Clair (Bimbo) Williams and his Reserve mates that removed Buffalo from the ranks of the undefeated, 20-13. The Bulls' scores were made by Chuck Krawczyk on a 32 yard forward-lateral aided by Dick Doll and Bill McGarva and a 25 yard sweep by Ken Born. Statistically UB had the edge holding a 216-140 margin in rushing and 114-92 through the air.

Ken Born scored twice for the Bulls, on a 20 yard pass play from Bill McGarva and on an 11 yard run. Chuck Daniels' electrifying 37 yard touchdown scamper with an intercepted pass ended Buffalo's scoring bid. FRED DUNLAP Alumni 16 �Cross Country Team "Best in Buffalo's History"—Fisher Cross-Country Coach Emery Fisher re- ported that the 1956 season was the first since 1947, when the University started competition in cross-country, that we have had a winning team. Coach Fisher claims that this year's team is the "best in The University of Buffalo's history." Paced by his 1-2 punch, Robert Grud- JIM PEELLE a 72-0 victory over Ohio Northern University Polar Bears at Rotary Field. Over 4500 chilled spectators watched UB score seven of the first eight times they had possession of the ball. The home finale proved little more than a light workout for Coach Dick Offenhamerand his crew. Offenhamer used his first stringers for only a total of 16 minutes of the entire ball game. Even big tackle Fran Woidzik made thescoring column, taking a lateral from Dick Doll and stepping into the end zonefor the tally. The Ohio Northern gamewas the last home game for eight of the Bulls, who will be graduated in June. The eight seniors are: Chuck Daniels, Co-captains Dick Doll and Chuck Krawczyk, Cliff Miller, Dave Nelson, Norm Pyzikiewicz, Paul Snyder and Dan Stanley. The University of Buffalo really took it on the chin in their final game of the season at Geneva, N. Y. at the hands of the Hobart Statesmen. Hobart trounced the favored Bulls, as Art Lambert, the Statemen's brilliant quarterback was the dominating factor in the win. The Bulls never really got started and except for early in the first quarter, the Statesmen dominated the play. The Bulls scored on a beautiful 68 yard pass play, McGarva to Doll, and on a one yard buck by Fullback Lou Reale. The loss left the Bulls with a 5-3 season record. Our hats are off to the fine team that represented The University of Buffalo on the football field this fall. Head Coach Dick Offenhamer and his fine, young assistants Karl Kluckhohn and Fred Dunlop; freshman coaches Rom Laßocque, "Buzz" Buzzelli and Pete Rao did an outstanding job with their boys, many of whom are sophomores and juniors and will be heard from again next year. The spirit of the team and the coaching staff was equalled by the spirit of the students, alumni and friends of the University. They are all enthusiastically looking forward to another successful season in 1957. zien, who won five meets, and Carmen Parisi who averaged 2% points per meet. The University of Buffalo cross-country Bulls ran to a won 7, lost 3 record in individual meets and finished third in the Canisius College Invitational Meet and fifth in the New York State Invitational Meet. Coach Fisher's outlook for another winning season in 1957seems very bright. Sal Corallo and Ron Wrona are the only two members of the 1956 squad who will not return in '57. Grudzien and Parisi still have another year of competition. The freshman squad looked especially good this year against tough competition, compiling a won 4, lost 2record, climaxing the season with a victory in the Canisius Invitational Meet. Larry Lauer, a former St. Joseph's student and Doug Lang from Bennett High were particularly outstanding and will be heard from again next year. hand, he decries an apparent lack of rebounding strength —a shortcoming principally attributable to an acute shortage ofreally big men. The Bulls success this season could very well depend on Steve Sklar. The 64", 225 pounder sat out last season and can really help the team if he regains his old form. Two yearsago he was the Bulls' second leading scorer and number onerebounder. At the time of this writing no starting lineup has been named for the opener at Clark Gym against Oswegb State but Serfustini named veterans Roy Fowler and Art Cholewinski as especially impressive as well as Sophomores Mary Herb, Bernard Kurowski, Howie Lewis, Joe Tontillo and Ed Purser. Cholewinski, Herb and Kurowski are 64", Lewis 62", Fowler and Tontillo 5' 11" and Purser stands only 57" but is fast, a good shot and an excellent ball handler. Then too, there is Chuck Daniels, a to be considered. Daniels had been playing football and will probably win a starting post as soon as he makes the transition. Len Serfustini expects a fine season in his initial year and we wish him all the luck in the world as he and his teammeet such outstanding clubs as Cornell, Colgate, Akron, Navy, Tufts and Brandeis. standout last year, Serfustini at Helm of Basketball Bulls for Initial Season The University of Buffalo Basketball Bulls, under the tutelage of Dr. Len Serfustini, making his debut this season as basketball coach, has worked at a breath-taking pace since practice began in early November. Serfustini devoted the first two weeks of practice strictly to conditioning and there wasn't a ball in evidence during the three times weekly sessions. The original twenty man squad has been trimmed down to fourteen as the result of the daily two hour drills. "Serf" has grudgingly admitted the fact that the Bulls have demonstrated an overall abundance of team speed, hustle and defensive skill.

Strebel came to the rescue and became so interested in the Home that he did its legal work for years without compensation. Then, his son, Robert Strebel, LLB'2I, became a lawyer and followed in his father's foot-steps as far as St. John's was concerned. They were both members of Holy Trinity Church. Fifteen years ago, Milton C. Strebel, LLB'2I, a cousin of Robert Strebel, was elected to the Board as a representative of Atonement Church. He automatically assumed the job whenever the Home needed a lawyer. He has saved the Home many thousands of dollars and is still on the Board and still handling the law work gratuitously. And now a new chapter is starting in the work of this faithful family, Milton J. Strebel, LLB'SS, the son of Milton C, was admitted to the bar July 11, 1956, after graduating from U.B. He is 25 years old and a member of the U.S. Naval Air Reserve. Now, he is associated with the law firm of Strebel and Strebel. And his first official act as a lawyer was to appear before the Supreme Court to make application for the sale of some property of St. John's Orphan Home! Of course, it was a gratis job!

Alumni �A Message to Alumni: "The vision—the Program for Progress— in the excerpts below comes from a statement which reflects two years of University self-survey, the thoughtful consideration of various bodies of the University family, the Council and the newly created Development Board. There is no doubt that the messageis important —for you and your children, for the University, and for our country and a better world. Your vigorous and sympathetic cooperation will prove to be an essential factor of success." CHANCELLOR CLIFFORD C. FURNAS The Greater University of Buffalo — A Program for Progress THE PROBLEMS AS OPPORTUNITY Larger proportions of much larger numbers of our young people are seeking university education. Further, it is now generally recognized that our universities are the essential source for providing the knowledge and manpower educated at the highest level of competence essential for maintaining and accelerating America's social, cultural and economic advances and for fulfilling our political principles. However, the demands of our free, dynamic society correspondingly increase the needs of universities which at best have sought to make the most of their educationaldollar in a period of inflation and increasing costs. Your independent, privately-supported, non-denominational, co-educational University of Buffalo, after self-survey and careful planning, proposes two years of critical to accept these chalfor tomorrow. lenges of today as opportunities We believe we know where we are and what we have done, what we can do best, and what is needed to make the University in the decades ahead of Buffalo the foremost urban university when our kind of institution, by the very nature of American development, is destined to play a larger quantity-quality role in American higher education. A GREAT FACULTY'S PLEDGE TO YOU The heart of a university is its faculty. Our determination to serve the Niagara Frontier, poised for decades of tremendous growth and achievement, is best expressed in a resolution adopted unanimously by the Senate of the University, January 11, 1957: WHEREAS The University of Buffalo traditionally has admitted all qualified students —to the limits of its capacity who apply to it, and — WHEREAS The University has endeavored to provide educational opportunities which will serve the needs of Western New York and our country and the world of scholarship, and WHEREAS The University has always received from its community the resources needed to maintain its standard and to continue its development, therefore BE IT RESOLVED THAT The Senate of the University, consisting of members of the various Faculties, records its approval and pledges its support to the following policies and plans: 1. The University of Buffalo will continue to meet its responsibility for the education of the increasing numbers of young people of Western New York who are qualified by University standards and who desire higher education. 2. The University of Buffalo will, at the same time, continue to meet its responsibilities to the causes of higher education by maintaining the quality of education which has characterized it; and to improve, in whatever areas possible, the quality of its education. 3. The University of Buffalo will continue . to carry out its responsibilities to community and country by developing and adding to its educational offerings in response tothe humanistic, social and scientific needs which characterize a rapidly changing world; thus assuming its share of the task of meeting the requirements for trained persons in such a world ." Ifthe necessary resources become available! The Council and the Development Board also endorse this commitment. In view of the University's well-known traditions of freedom, good teaching, energetic and imaginative leadership, community service, of concern for the individual, and the cultivation of mind, heart and initiative, the University has the oppor- Bulletin 3 �tunity to be a Greater University by providing educational quality and equality of opportunity to the maximum number of quali- fied students. THE UNIVERSITY OF BUFFALO—A GROWING ASSET This institution, devoted to teaching, research and public service, is both young and old. Its oldest unit was established in 1846, its newest in 1950. Size has not been the objective—the central design has been: "How can the university serve more people better?" Founded by the citizens of Buffalo before the days of taxsupported colleges and universities, the University continues to serve the general welfare—truly, the public's university for Western New York. Few universities in this country are more closely identified with and interwoven into the cultural and professional life of their environs. Tremendous as is U. B.s contribution to this community, it is not just a local institution. It is easy to foresee that the University—the first of the three American universities to be headed by a President of the United States —will continue to grow remarkably in state, national and international prestige ... and service. This takes place by the contributions made by its students, alumni, and faculty, and by the services requested of the University family, in all of its fourteen divisions and seventy-three departments Because believe firmly in the duty and vital capacity of a university in the service of mankind and knowledge, we can take justifiable pride in the many signs of national and international recognition and service. Extended ranges ofrecognition and service arecoming to our faculty through an increasing number of fellowships for teaching and research throughout the world and through assignments from the Government and various foundations. In the past year, five of our faculty have received Fulbright awards for important academic work abroad. Groups offoreign educators have been sent to our campus for extended periods of training in several fields. An endowed professorship has for the past two decades brought each year to Buffalo distinguished French scholars and statesmen. Paraguay has contracted with our School of Medicine to help develop medical and nursing education. One of our deans has been named a consultant to the we Ministry of Education of Pakistan and will also make a roundthe-world inquiry on teacher education. Four of our staff held important positions in both the state and national places of the recent White House Conference on Education. The Chairman of the Council is a member of the President's Committeeon Education Beyond the High School. The Chancellor has been serving as Assistant Secretary of Defense for Research and Development. A faculty member serves as secretary of the large professional association in mathematics, an example of the important professional offices and consulting positions held by faculty and alumni. The University is the base of operations for three internationally known scholarly periodicals—in belies lettres, philosophy, and linguistics. The writings of our faculty are diffused in magazines and books throughout the world. In the past year, two national book clubs selected books by our faculty. Faculty members are appearing on nationwide radio and television programs, and in important concerts in major cities. THE UNIVERSITY BOTH ATTRACTS AND SUPPLIES TALENTS AND RESOURCES The University attracts great and varied talents and resources to this community. Our faculty holds degrees from 296 different institutions of higher learning. In a typical year, the student body will have representatives from as many as 25 states and 10 other nations of the world. Students with degrees from 162 other colleges and universities, including 17 foreign universities, are enrolled in our Graduate School of Arts and Sciences. Those of our graduates who wish to go on for professional and graduate work in other leading institutions find that they have been thoroughly prepared and that the University's qualities are respected. The spirit of continuing inquiry and learning is imparted on our campus. We were pioneers in the tutorial systems, with its element of independent study, and with the college credit examination system which offers superior opportunities for gifted students. Millard Fillmore College, the evening division of the University, plays a vital role in the adult education program of the community. In the 34 years since its founding, more than 75,000 men and women have attended classes in this division With the demonstrated backing of this region and local resources, the University should more and more attract talents and resources from outside our immediate area. The Health SciencesCenter will be the home of the Schools of Pharmacy and Nursing and the Biology Department. ... �An architect's drawing shows Capen Hall with Sherman Hall, a four-story research building, erected on its southern side. FORWARD STEPS ON THE CAMPUS The towering fifth residence hall is under way through a selfliquidating Federal loan. We want to share our opportunities as well as to complement our campus life with a proportion of resident students. The University has plans for an effective, extensive and beautiful Fine Arts Center. The Music Unit is now under construction. Soon to be started will be Sherman Hall, an addition to the medical research facilities of the University. This is the beginning of a collection of activities which will be the Health Sciences Center—one of the most comprehensive in the nation. Plans arc well under way for a Nuclear Research Center which will be unique in this region and of particular value to the future of regional industry both through research and through its teaching activity. Further, this unit will enable our scholars to add to the fund of human knowledge upon which the progress of humanity is based. The property of the Chronic Disease Research Institute was formally conveyed to the University. The development of a graduate program with the Roswell Park Memorial Institute is under way. New programs have been started recently in fine arts, civil engineering, music, reading, executive development and management training, anthropology and linguistics, and in carbon research. FUTURE EDUCATIONAL DEVELOPMENTS A creative, forward-looking university not only must consolidate and enrich existing programs and divisions—it must and does seek to develop opportunities, prudently but imaginatively, to keep pace with the demands of modern life. Itis not possible to predict all of the major steps, nor the resources they will evoke, in the next fifteen years. But it is very probable that the University of Buffalo faculties will give serious consideration to new or enriched programs in such fields as: chemical, civil and nuclear engineering; electronic data processing and analysis; applied mathematics; public administration; management and laborrelations; interdisciplinary social science research and service; human communications; Polish studies; Health sciences; educational administration and growing specialities in education; theatre and dramatic arts; community relations. Efforts are already under way designed to help meet the shortage of scientists and teachers and to encourage inde- pendent study. A PROGRAM FOR THE PLANNED AND EFFECTIVE GROWTH OF HIGHER EDUCATION IN WESTERN NEW YORK Problem: Resources need to be found to support good instruction and facilities for 9,000 full-time students by 1960, and for 72,300 full-time students in undergraduate, graduate and professional work by 1970 (an increase of 140%from today), and a faculty increase from 732 to about 1800. In doing this, we can also serve 13,000part-time students by 1970, and consolidate, improve and add educational opportunities and services. We can expand without having an overwhelming student body in any one division of the University. Besides, the University has experience in expanding and improving at the same time—between 1939 and 1955, a comparableperiod of 16 years, full-time enrollmentincreased 3^ times. 1957-1958 PHASE OPPORTUNITY—The total cost and 1958 goal for capital funds, in thefirst step in the Greater University of Buffalo Development Program is $9,600,000. This sum will provide for the following critical re- quirements: New classroom building and clinic center, and reconstruction, to accommodate the College of Arts and Sciences, the School of Social Work, and the School of Education $1,400,000 Chemistry laboratory, building and facilities 1,850,000 Health Sciences Center, housing the Schools of Pharmacy and Nursing, and the Biology 1,950,000 Sherman Hall addition to present medical 1,500,000 research facilities Music and Visual Arts Buildings of The Fine Arts Center 1,400,000 Funds needed to pay for construction of 500,000 Hochstetter Hall (Physics) Endowment for the support of Faculty and Instruction 1,000,000 Dept This, then, is the immediate, the 1957-58 goal which will benefit the total University in its expanded role of service. Bulletin 5 �This beautiful new Chemistry Laboratory will be constructed at a cost of $1,935,000. INTO OUR SECOND CENTURY But it is prudent and wise for the University to plan further ahead into its Second Century, at least to 1971, its 125th Anniversary. This proposed program will place us firmly upon a new high level of educational effectiveness. OPPORTUNITY—The long-range development of the University of Buffalo visualizes to 1971 the opportunities for an additional endowment and benefactions of $18,300,000 for the support of teaching, research and students, and additional capital funds of $7,700,000 for plant expansion—a total of $26 million. This proposed voluntary investment in the creative future of our free world would provide these needed forward steps For the support of teaching, research and students: $9,900,000 33 Endowed professorships 4,400,000 88 Research and training fellowships Improved library resources 2,000,000 To endow at least the present amount of student assistance so that all scholarship grants would be covered by income from capital funds for this purpose 2,000,000 For added facilities and reconstruction, on a wellplanned schedule: 3 Classroom buildings 1,700,000 Theatre to complete Fine Arts Center. 1,125,000 1,000,000 Library construction for 625,000 Engineering Facilities Chemical 2,000,000 Field House Service Buildings 500,000 Property 500,000 250,000 Rotary Field TOTAL OPPORTUNITY: 1957 to 1971 $35,600,000* — .. To be Continued by the Next Generation *To complete the Development design, other means of financing will be sought for several priority projects. It is proposed to finance the Nuclear Research Center principally by service contracts. Iflow interest capital remains available, and is increased 6 IS IT GOOD BUSINESS? The answer from all quarters is a definite YES! For example: "Ifrisingeducational levels are essential to themaintenance of a dynamic economy and a free society," says the Committee on Education of the Chamber of Commerce of the U.S., "an active interest in providing ever-better educational opportunity in your community is the essence of Good Citizenship, Good Government, and Good Business." This is an era in American history when there is a critical shortage of educated manpower. The availability and proximity of advanced educational opportunities offered by the University of Buffalo will become more and more a vital factor in sustaining present business and industrial organizations, in attracting new enterprises to this area, and in attracting employees who wish those opportunities for themselves and their children. It is encouraging to note that throughout the country, corporations —for very valid reasons—are voluntarily contributing more to the support of higher education. A billion dollars of new facilities were announced in 1956 for the Niagara Frontier. The University of Buffalo can help to make this expansion fully significant with educated men and women. CONFIDENCE IN OPERATIONS The University of Buffalo, frankly, has not gone in for frills or luxuries. It has been devoted squarely and intensively to the educational jobat hand. It has always reported fully and operated economically, with low overhead and full use offacilities. The percentage of space utilization throughout the day and evening and over the larger period of the semester is among the very highest of any major college in the country. Those of us who wish to share in the countless benefits which derive from this or any university must also recognize that inflation has affected the endowment returns, that operating costs have increased, that tuition and tuition increases do not cover the total cost of educating a student, and that the devoted teaching and scholarly profession has not fared well in the expanding prosperity of the United States. for student housing, prudent management indicates that selfliquidating loans, to the extent of$11,200,000, might bemadefor four new residence halls and a student union. This would bring resident student capacity from the present 600 to 2800 in 1970. Alumni �WHY PRIVATE INSTITUTIONS? The Council perceives the role and values of both state and independent universities. But it also believes that it is wise for this country, for freedom, and for all higher education, to maintain the American heritage of the balanced picture of private and public support and control. The United States government has always built on the principle of encouraging private phi- lanthropy to higher education. Further, simple social arithmetic, affecting everyone:—where the basic investment in plant, facilities (U.B.'s replacement value is estimated at $37,000,000), and administrative structure has already been made—and thousands of our citizens and alumni have contributed—relatively small outlays will purchase a maximum of additional, quality educational opportunities. The fact that commendable economy and efficiency in the use of each dollar is planned and promised should be kept in mind. The PROGRAM outlined above is more than an analysis of pressing needs. It is a challenge to get more value out of your University —how to make it a more effective instrument. Resources, which are thriftily estimated, socially justified, and soundly managed are needed to turn this vision into reality for the benefit of our young men and women. BOLD—BUT POSSIBLE In the judgment of the Council and the various committees of the University, the Development Program is bold, difficult, creative—but also feasible. The dimensions of this Program are socially justified to match and to nurture the confidence and civic pride of this 14th largest metropolitan area with a first- position University. Concerted effort and generous giving can bring this GREATER UNIVERSITY OF BUFFALO into being. THE PLAN OF OPERATIONS is The first step in the final success of the Development Program to reach the goal of the 1957-1958 phase of $9,600,000. Campaign committees and task forces of volunteers are now being organized and will follow a carefully-planned and timed sequence of operations. First, opportunities will be presented with an initial emphasis upon gifts in the larger brackets to give the program an enthusiastic momentum. This will be followed by further intensive, personal solicitation of alumni and friends until April 1958, and continuing efforts thereafter regarding grants, benefactions, bequests, and annual giving. When the objective is permanent—capital giving for endowment and needed buildings —a higher scale of philanthropy will help to reach the goal. Every effort will be made to see that every potential con- tributor understands the situation and program. Inquiries to The University of Buffalo Development Office, 3435 Main Street, Buffalo 14, N. Y. will have a prompt response. (Telephone: UNiversity 9300). YOUR UNIVERSITY AND YOUR WORLD This community, in the past, has always proved to be particularly sensitive to its role in the University's progress. The University has every confidence that the united and earnest efforts of the citizens who make up the ever-widening University constituency, its alumni, friends, foundations, and business organizations will recognize its problems as their own and will desire to turn them into opportunities through the Greater University of Buffalo Development Program. .. "Be assured that you will establish an institution to yourselves and for which you willreceive the grateful thanks and fervent blessings of unborn millions." eminently useful Millard Fillmore President of the United States, and First Chancellor of The University of Buffalo This new building will house the College of Arts and Sciences and the Schools of Social Work and Education. Bulletin 7 �HIGHLIGHTS FROM In November, ActingChancellorClaude E. Puffer submitted to the University Council, his annual report for the academic year 1955-1956. Included in this report are the impressions of Dr. Puffer for the year he held the position of ActingChancellorofthe University. Growth and Development of the University The report began with a brief history of the origin, growth and development of the University, highlighting the development of the endowment, the obtaining of Dr. Samuel P. Capen as first full time Chancellor, the growth in number of the student body and the part played by the citizens in the development of the University. The Future Dr. Puffer stated, "That the colleges and universities of this land are facing very serious problems brought about by two factors. The first one is the increased numbers who wish to enroll in colleges. The other factor which is causing colleges, particularly the voluntarily supported colleges, serious concern is the inflation which has taken place since the beginning of World War II and which promises to continue as a relatively permanent aspect of our economy." Dr. Puffer posed the question of what can be done about the inflationary problem? "For those voluntarily supported institutions that have the will and the determination to meet the needs of the future in both quantity and quality of educational opportunities there is only one source of support that the majority of such collegesreally want. There are, however, at least two other sources which may of necessity become available if the public so decides. Before these are enumerated let me point to the dismaying prospect that unless our society substantially increases its assistance to privately controlled colleges it is inevitable that state controlled institutions will grow at a much more rapid rate than the privately CHANCELLOR'S ANNUAL REPORT "The source of support that the privately controlled colleges really desire is a continuation of voluntary gifts from alumni, friends, business corporations, foundations and other benefactors, in such increased volume that the problems can be met. This is from all points of view the best possible solution. It is the one to which the University of Buffalo sub- scribes and our plans are being made ac- cordingly." As a second possible answer to the source of support, Dr. Puffer believes, "Therelationship between private institutions and the federal government must be reviewed." "A third possible answer lies in the relationship between privately controlled institutions and their state governments. While the responsibility for inflation is not present at the state level, the responsibility for educational opportunities is." Returning to the immediate problem of the future of The University of Buffalo Dr. Puffer stated, "It is the determination of The University of Buffalo to fulfill its role as an urban university dedicated to the needs of the community. The University of Buffalo should be proud to be identified as an urban university because the urban university is destined to fulfill a unique and evermore important role in ourcivilization." "The major direction of development of the University in the next several years is undoubtedly in the field of graduate work. Those departments that are able to keep a nucleus of distinguished faculty members will draw to the University young graduate students who will not only assist us inmeeting our faculty needs to some extent, but will also bring greater renown to the University as they go Into other universities, into industry, or into the professions, and will help us meet the pressing national need for highly trained manpower of many kinds." Financial Status "In the year ended June 30, 1956 The controlled ones, thereby changing completely and permanently the present situation in which about half the college enrollment is in publicly controlled and half in privately controlled institutions. For University of Buffalo by very careful management succeeded in balancing income and expenditures with a surplus for the year of $7,007. For this accomplishment much credit must be given to the members of the Council of the University, to ward. Department Heads, and to those who direct the Maintenance and Service Operations of the University. "The gross income of the University reasons which have been stated on many occasions, the existence of this balance is highly desirable for the nation. The upsetting of it would be a long step back- the Vice Chancellors, to the Deans, to the was $7,782,491.04. This included a variety of gifts and grants, payments for sponsored research, income fromauxiliary enterprises such as residence halls, cafeteria, bookstore, as well as income from investments and income from student fees." "The fact that there has been financial stability should not convey the impression that there has been an ample amount of money to care for all of the University needs in the quantity and quality that sound education calls for. Perhaps a better way to put the case is to describe the University as poor but solvent. The task of continuing improvement of faculty salaries, of building additional plant fast enough to keep ahead of the wave of students of the next 15 years, and of trying to keep the University's purchasing power anywhere near constant or expanding as inflation continues during the coming years, is a most formidable one. Far greater support is needed from the community, and particularly the corporations, if the future course of the University is to be an upward rather than a dccliningone." University Development "One of the most heartening activities in the area of University support and development is that of the several participating funds. Previous annual reports of the Chancellor and the Treasurer have called attention to their beginnings. The pioneer in this effort hasbeen the Medical Participating Fund which under the guidance of devoted alumni has obtained regular annual contributions to be used for the improvement of the instruction and research in the School of Medicine and particularly in the basic sciences of that division. Not only alumni of the University of Buffalo, but also all practicing physicians in the area are asked to contribute and an exceedingly high percentage do contribute." "A Dental Participating Fund was established last year in the same pattern. A Pharmacy Participating Fund and a Business Administration Participating Fund have also been established and while still in their infancy have been making a sound beginning." "During the year a gift was received from the Ford Foundation in the amount of approximately $1,000,000 to be used for a minimum of 10 years as endowment for the improvement of faculty salaries. The exact amount of the gift had not been established at the end of the year since Alumni 8 �some questions of detail in answer to a follow-up questionnaire submitted by the Foundation were still being prepared on June 30. This magnificent gift will be received in two equal amounts in July 1956 and July 1957." "Of the bequests received by the University, spacewillpermit mention of only three: The Hochstetter Bequest which will provide very substantialsums for the support of research in the School of Medicine; The Sherman Bequest which will make it possible to construct a new building connected with Capen Hall to complete facilities needed by the School of Medicine and to house research to be supported by the Hochstetter Bequest; and the Slee Bequest which will provide concerts for the people in Buffalo as well as substantial assistance to the teaching program of the Department of Music. Enrollment "The registration of students as of November 1, 1955 stood at 11,001, as com- pared with 10,039 a year ago or an increaseof slightly less than 10%.Approximately 6,617 students were enrolled in the daydivisions and approximately 4,300 students in the evening divisions. Of the total student enrollment 3,144 were veterans. The enrollment was divided between approximately 8,000 men and 3,000 women. "Perhaps the only comment required is one which has been repeated many times in the past few months and will be repeated again and again in the months to come. I refer to the reliable forecast that future enrollments must be anywhere from 100% to 140% greater than even this amazing number of 11,001 students." Alumni "Alumni interest in the University and in alumni activities seems to be growing substantially. In the many meetings of divisional alumni groups in Buffalo and in the meetings of out-of-town associations, a sense of enthusiasm aqd vigor is clearly noticeable. The General Alumni Board is rapidly assuming more leadership and responsibility in University affairs. The Office of Alumni Relations is making many plans to bring to theattention of alumni groups the educational activities and policies of the University, the extra-curricular activities and the manyways in which alumni can benefit from their organization. As Chancellor Furnas pointed out in his annual report for 1954-55, there should be a constructive demonstration that the University is interested in the alumni in many other ways besides financial contributions. This is progressing in a satisfactory manner." Instruction and Research "The University Senate has been revitalized and is taking a far more important role in educational planning and policy making this year. This is a very gratifying development to all members of the faculty and administrative staff". "In the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences where it is expected that many of the major developments of the next few years will take place, further improvements in program and relationships were undertaken with the Roswell Park Division of the Graduate School." "A new two degree five year program of studies has been established by a cooperative arrangement between the College of Arts and Sciences and the School of Engineering. A superior student who elects this program will take part of his work in the field of American studies in the College of Arts and Sciences and the remainder of it in the School of Engineering, receiving the degree of Bachelor of Arts and the degree of Bachelorof Science at the end offive years. "In the College of Arts and Sciencesa new department of Anthropology and Linguistics has been created. A team of outstanding scholars in this area has been added to the staffof the department under the chairmanship of Professor Henry Lee Smith,Jr." "In all other divisions existing curricula are being subjected to critical study and revisions are being made. Throughout the entire University, there is an atmosphere of soul-searching and perspective from which major advances should come. Publications Members of the University family had 9 books published during the past year. "In addition to the books there are at least 361 articles in scientific, technical and scholarly magazines covering a wide range of subject matter." tion other than one of continual expand- ing service to the community." Conclusion "In this report I have endeavored to provide a sense of perspective. If I have succeeded, you have before you a picture of one of the most rapidly developing universities in the land. You see a dynamic institution that has arisen from very modest beginnings, that has a firm belief in its basic philosophy of service to its community, and a determination to transform the many problems which face it into equally significant opportunities. "This University is fortunate in having a governingbody with the character and devotion shown by the members of the Council. It is fortunate in the leadership that it has had in the period since 1922 when Dr. Samuel P. Capen became its first full time Chancellor. Under Dr. Furnas it should not only move ahead rapidly but also continue to go in the right direction. It has been fortunate in possessing an intellectual climate where freedom, good teaching and scholarly research are the basic components. It has been fortunate in having loyal alumni who have, however, only recently begun to provide the support of which they are capable. And finally, it has been very fortunate in having the good will and snpport of the tens of thousands in the community whose University it really is. May I say to the Council of the University and to the Faculty and Staff that I have, indeed, been honored to serve as Acting Chancellor and to have had at least a small part in the University that stands so high in my hopes and affection." ClaudeE. Puffer Acting Chancellor Community Service "The University defines its community in two ways. The first and obvious definition is one which comprises Buffalo and Western New York. In another sense the community that we serve is the entire world." "In terms of perspective, the service rendered by the University has been grow- ing very rapidly indeed. The basic fact that The University of Buffalo is an urban university with a very strong service motivation and supported by tens of thousands of people in the immediate area makes it impossible to visualize a situa- The Chancellor's Annual Report for the academic year 1955-1956 is now available in the Office of In- formation Services of the University, 392 Hayes Hall.

The prime function of the Center is to furnish Audio-Visual equipment and materials to the classroom on demand. To do this, the center services and supplies: 19sound-silent motion picture projectors, 37 magnetic recorders, 26 still projectors, 12 record players, 11 public address systems, 221 educational films and 173 film-strips. The center also supplies service departments of the University, such as the Alumni office, and outside organizations. Another facet, The Educational Film Library, serves schools, institutions and industry throughout Western New York. The third and most recent function of the Audio-Visual Center is production. This includes still pictures, recording the film "University Scene," graphic arts for the classroom and conferences, and printing negatives for the publishing plant. This in addition to the athletic coaches' slow-motion films, a sound film has been made of each football game in its entirety. This has culminated in a half-hour film of all the football games this year entitled "The University of Buffalo Football Highlights of 1956." This production was accomplished by Audio-Visual Director Mr. Goll and Mr. Plesur joining Mr. Van Vlack at each game to act as camera-men. This versatility in personnel is often utilized to accomplish complex requests made of the Audio-Visual Center. Work is continuing on other motion picture productions including a sound version in color of "The past year, The photographic darkroom is equipped for rapid processing of still photographs. Jacques VanVlack, BA'5O, production supervisor, handles most of the photographic chores. Audio-Visual technical know-how is called upon in the construction of laboratoriessuch as the one used by ProfessorBeyer of the Modern Language Department. University Scene." The most significant development in the Audio-Visual Center in the past year, which surpasses in importance the addition of production service, is the organization of systems to control the flow of materials and services to the user. These systems were set up to meet the increased acceptance of Audio-Visual Aids to education, which acceptance manifested itself in the 3,000 requests and over 15,000 movements of items in the last year. The paramount problem of the past has been that of promoting the use of modern tools of learning among the university faculty. The greatest problems of today are the acquisition of space and the employment of personnel to handle the everincreasing demands on the AudioVisual Center.

Furnas, who has been leave of absence for the last fourteen months as Assistant Secretary of Defense, returned to his full time duty as Chancellor of the University. Dr. Furnas had been extremely vigorous during the past year in conducting the Pentagon's research and development program. Early last year he was the focal point of a dispute that brought to a head a row over the designation of authority between the scientists and production men in theresearch and development proon gram. At that time he threatened to resign his position unless the scientists' part was considered an integral part of the research and development program. In January, when Dr. Furnas offered his resignation, he told President Eisenhower in an exchange of letters that it has become "critically important" that he return to the University. He said the University is starting a major drive for funds "which unfortunately are especially Alumni 12 �necessary for the vate sound survival of priuniversities." The President said he regretted Dr. Furnas' departure but is "most mindful and appreciative of your interest in helping to keep the educational institutions of our country strong." Copland, Noted as Composer, is Named Professor of Music Aaron Copland, famous American composer and lecturer, has been appointed visiting Slee professor of music at The University of Buffalo.

Cameron Baird, head of the University of Buffalo Department of Music, said: "I consider Aaron Copland the outstanding American composer and certainly the leading composer of American folk idiom." Mr. Copland has composed numerous symphonies and chamber music selections for piano, violin and clarinet, as well as authoring two books, "What to Listen for in Music" and "Our New Music." A lecturer for more than ten years at the New School for Social Research, Mr. Copland also served as guest lecturer at Harvard University. Last year he was awarded the degree of doctor of music from Princeton University and recently received the Gold Medal of the National Institute of Arts and Letters, which is given only once every five years. his home in Ossining, N. V., Mr. Copland said: "I take pleasure and pride in my coming association with the Music Department of the University of Buffalo. I take the invitation to the campus of a practicing composer such as myself to be a sign of the increasingly important role our schools are willing to play in the development of the arts of America. I shall do all I can to advance the cause of music during my stay in Reached Buffalo." at Four Year Course in Civil Engineering Begins September Author of: A four year course in civil engineering, leading to a bachelor-of-sciencc degree, will begin next September at the University. Paul E. Mohn, dean of the School of Engineering, pointed out that the need for civil engineering graduates has existed in the Niagara Frontier for some time. First proposals for a course to educate students in this field were recommended by a faculty committee in 1951 " Dr. Claude E.

Ted Siekmann, director of alumni relations, welcomed the alumni to the meeting and presented a new film, "University of Buffalo Football Highlights of 1956." {Continued on page 17) Alumni 14 �Lafayette, Lehigh and Temple Added to Bull's Schedule Athletic Director Jim Peelle announced four important additions to the University of Buffalo football schedule for 1957. Lafayette, Lehigh, Temple and Wayne are the formidablefoes that will challenge Coach Dick Offenhamer's eleven come next fall. These four new teams represent quite a step upward in U.B.s gridiron competition. The Bulls will play a nine game schedule in '57, an increase of one game over the past season. Carnegie Tech, Western Reserve, St. Lawrence, Alfred and Cortland are continuing on the schedule. 1957 will mark the first time a University of Buffalo football team has ever played the Owls of Temple. Temple, once a great national power under the late Glenn "Pop" Warner, is well along the road to gridiron recovery after an extended period offootball de-emphasis. Lafayette defeated the Bulls 26-0 in their only previous meeting in 1954. The Leopards are one of the East's oldest and and most respected intercollegiate football powers. Lafayette's record in 1956 was 6 wins and 3 losses against strong competition. The University and Lehigh have tangled four times in the past, although not since 1953. The Engineers from Beth- lehem, Pa. defeated the Bulls 27-0 in that year and also were victorious in 1939 and 1952. The teams played to a scoreless tie in 1941. Like Lafayette, Lehigh has a long and meritorious football past and the Engineer's schedule is always one of the toughest of the independent schools in the East. Wayne University of Detroit returns to the schedule after a ten year lapse. The Bulls never had a win in the eight games played between the two schools. The Tartan's 32-12 victory in 1947 ruined an otherwise perfect season for one of Jim Peelle's outstanding teams. Lafayette, Lehigh and Wayne will be met in battle at Rotary Field while the Bulls will travel to Philadelphia to meet Temple. Cortland and Western Reserve will also play at Rotary Field. Carnegie Tech, St. Lawrence and Alfred, in addition to Temple are road games. U.B.s four 1956 home games drew approximately 25,000fans, theequivalent offour complete sellouts. Jim Peelle anticipates even greater interest in next years team and plans are being made to enlarge the Rotary Field stands. 1957 Football Schedule Sept. 28 at Carnegie Tech Oct. 5 Lafayette** 12 Western Reserve (Homecoming) ** 19 at St. Lawrence 26 at Alfred Nov. 2 Wayne** 9 Cortland State** 16 Lehigh** 23 at Temple **Denotes home game Spirited Basketball Enables Bulls to Maintain 9-4 Pace The University of Buffalo basketball started the season off on the right foot by defeating a stubborn Oswego State team, 76-73 in Clark Gym. The Bulls, who had always distinguished themselves by winning the close ones during the reign of Mcl Eiken, followed the same pattern in winning the first game under the tutelage of Len Serfustini. Howie Lewis was the high scorer for the Bulls with 17 points. Cornell University handed U.B. its first defeat of the season, 63-54, by coming from behind with a torrid second-half rally. The Bulls, led by Chuck Daniels' 21 points, appalled the Big Red by building up a 24-21 half time lead. In the second half, Cornell and sophomore Lou Jordan found the range and spelled the end for Buffalo. The victory gave Cornell a 12-9 edge over UB in their basketball series dating back to 1906. Buffalo was back on the winning side of the ledger with a 72-66 double overtime victory over Buffalo State Teachers College at Clark Gym. Fred Johnson, a senior who had seen little action before this game, came off the bench to tie the score with 14 seconds to go. Each team scored six points in the first overtime. In the second, UB went ahead with eight straight points to sew up the contest. Joe Tontillo was high for the night with 18 points. The journey to Geneva, N. Y. and Hobart College was costly for the basketteam Fowler of Buffalo grabs a rebound in the Hobart game. U.B. won 97-68. Roy ball Bulls as the Statesmen handedBuffalo its second loss of the season, 49-47- Jerry Strobel's one handed shot from the corner as the final buzzer sounded gave Hobart the win. Joe Tontillo was again high for the Bulls with 14 points. Brockport State Teachers became ÜB's third victim as the Bulls defeated them 69-58 in Clark Gym. Joe Tontillo, a sophomore who led UB in scoring in the two previous games, made 11 of 12 free throws and scored a total of 23 points to lead Buffalo to victory. The Bulls caged a remarkable 53% of their shots from the floor in defeating Rochester 86-66. They sank 35 of 66 shots as they romped through the game at Clark Gym. Chuck Daniels took the scoring honors with 20 points. The game was the first for the Bulls after the Christmas holiday layoff. The University of Buffalo won their third straight and gained the pleasure of revenge as they defeated Hobart 97-68 at Clark Gym. The win was the fifth against two losses for the Bulls who looked very good in this game and made Coach Len Serfustini look with pride to his team. Chuck Daniels was again high with 19 points. Cortland State snapped the three game win streak of Buffalo by defeating them 80-71 at Cortland. UB outscored Cortland from the field 26 to 24 but the decision was locked up by Cortland at the free throw line where they converted 32 of 41 compared to 19 of 30 free throws for the Bulls. Roy Fowler's 16 points and Daniels' 15 points were high for the Bulls. Colgate's Red Raiders with their 64" center John Nichols were too much for {Continued on page 14, col. 1) Bulletin 15 �{Continued from page 13) the Bulls in Hamilton, N. Y. Nichols scored 35 points to lead Colgate to victory. The Bulls were never ahead as Colgate hit on 30 of 58 shots for a 52rj average. Chuck Daniels led Buffalo with a respectable 25 points. The University of Buffalo Basketball team entered a two week recess for midterm exams with a winning record—6 victories, 4 defeats. This was accomplished by a win over Alfred University, 85-71. They had to come from behind in rhe final six minutes to stay above the break-even mark. Roy Fowler had his best scoring night with 26 points. As we went to press, the Basketball Bulls made their record 9 and 4 with impressive victories over Brockport and R.P.I, and a repeat win over Buffalo State Teachers. Brockport was beaten decisively, 65-51, R.P.I, went down to defeat 65-53 and State was overrun 60-45. Chuck Daniels, a standout all season for Buffalo, was the big man in the three wins, scoring 25 in the Brockport game, 16 against R.P.I, and 21 in the victory over State.

The anxiety of going home for a well earned vacation and the complications arising just as you get all set to leave certainly seem to confront these two students from Rochester, N. Y. It looks impossible, but with Carole Wishart's help he managed to squeeze all their belongings into his Renault and Carole, a Bus. Ad. senior, earned her lift back home. Alumni �A MessageFrotCmhanceflUivrsty To the Alumni: In education, as in industry, success hinges on making valid predictions of the demands of the future. In thewords ofC. F. Kettering, formerly a Vice President of General Motors, "We should all be concerned about the future because we will have to spend the rest of our lives there." The year 1971 will be the 125th anniversary ofthe founding ofThe University of Buffalo. That makes it a logical date on which to focus our planning. At the University you hear nearly as much talkabout 1971 as you do 1957. We anticipate that by that year we will have bona fide needs to accommodate approximately twice the enrollment of today. To reach this lofty, but realistic goal, we must increase our faculty from 700 to approximately 1500 and supplement and expand our physical facilities accordingly. Nobody, of course, is forcing us to undertake such an expansion. Rather , it is our strong feeling of responsibility to you, our alumni, as well as to our community and the nation as a whole which dictates that we open the doors to the ever-increasing numbers of qualified candidates demanding a university education. We are reluctant, indeed, to turn away sound applicants. If we are to meet our obligations we must expand. In the fiscal year ending June 30, 1956, our gross income was $7,782,491.04. Contributions from alumni, industry, foundations, bequests and others totaled $1,382,705.44. We are indeed grateful for this generosity and consider it a vote of confidence in our current program. We are now looking for an expression of confidence in our program for the future. Our goal of $9,600,000 in 1958 and $26,000,000 additional by 1971 is not based on what we think we can obtain, rather on what wefeel we must obtain to meet the responsibilities of our stewardship. This means we must all raise our sights. You will be asked to help us build a greater as well as larger University, ofwhich you can be prouder than ever before. In the years to come the University you are helping to build will become increasingly useful to yourself and to your children. Generations that follow will see to it that the immense good which you have done will not be forgotten. Sincerely yours, Bulletin 3 �A Message From the FtuhConGdmaeirfl To the Alumni: a trehelp but have noticed it-in the last few years there has been body. and the student of alumni part mendous surge of school spirit, both on the and high The reason is obvious-our Alma Mater in terms of faculty, facilities You cant country. academic standards, has become one of the leading universities in the wonderful The alumni, needless to say. is playing a large part in making this wherewithall to erect new progress possible.

This victory climaxed a win streak of seven straight and came on the eve of a dis- appointing trouncing by Navy, 80-50 on the Middies home court.

Powered by the long range bombing of Chuck Daniels, who had 32 points, the Bulls moved into the second round of the tournament with a 75-64 victory over Capital. Against Evansville it was JoeTontillo's layup, nine seconds before the gun, that provided the winning margin 77-75. But 230-pound senior SteveSklar was the real hero of the day as he paced the Bulls with 31 points. It was Sklar's greatest gamein a U.B. uniform and coupled with Chuck Daniels" fine, steady play the Bulls vaulted into the NCAA semi-finals against formidable Kentucky Wcsleyan in Evansville, Indiana. 26 Even in losing to Kentucky Wesleyan 72-68,the Bulls won the respect and admiration of the partisan fans, and Coach Serfustiniwas proud of the way his team fought and hustled every minute of the play.

In response to the award, Dr. Beck commented, "If it had not been for the University I should never have had the opportunity of receiving the education and the training as a physician which I have had. If I have been able to contribute in any small way to my Alma Mater, I feel that I am only to a minor degree discharging a genuine obligation, which can be repaid only by helping to create similar opportunities for others in our community." Buffalo Evening New* Alumni �A Message from the Chancellor . . . Robert E. Rich "Who Owns the University?" Accepts Alumni Leadership Dear Alumnus: In this issue of the "Bulletin" you will read that Robert E. Rich, of the class of 1935,has accepted my invitation to take leadership of alumni as we go forth to financeour Program of Progress. It was after due deliberation on the personal sacrificeinvolved that Mr. Rich told me how proud he was of the University and that he would do everything in his power to help the "fellows who own the University." This reminded me that .... Severalyearsago a Dartmouth alumnus addressed a messageto his fellow alumni on the theme,"who owns Dartmouth?" Of courseno one "owns" Dartmouth; no one "owns" The University of Buffalo either. But in a larger sense everyone "owns" the University. On May 11, 1846 New York State granted a charter to the Council to establish a University. The Council however, does not "own" the University—they are Trustees. The Council has in turn delegated administrative responsibility to the Chancellors,Deans and Directors, and the teaching duties to the Faculty. This of course you all know. But what of the alumni?Do they "own" the University? Or the students,do they "own" the University? Obviously we are all stockholders in this educational enterprise. Profitsare shared by many. Responsibilities are shared by many. But if we tried to measure the value of all its products, what assets we could audit! Who is to measure the value of the physician who saves the child's life?; or the dentist who alleviates pain and aids dental health?;orthe valueofthe physicist who computes the measure of control of x-rays or radio isotope radiation?; or the value of the contribution of lawyer or sociologist to the betterment of the com- munity? The University for years has given recognition to individuals who have en- nobled Buffalo in the eyesof the world. Over one hundred thousand former stu- dents have helped to build this institution. Yes, the products of the University have as great a stake as any in the future of the University. The very reputation of their degree and training is reflected in the continuing high character of the three aspects of Universityresponsibility: effective community participation, breadth and depth of research,and quality of instruction. The University is preparing to accept its share of the expected national increase of college students —possibly from three million to six million or even more. Our alumni should know that they are joining ten million college alumni who are assisting their alma maters to meet the needs of higher education across the nation. The American Alumni Council, of which the University is a member,recently reported through its annual Fund Survey for 1956 that, for the first time, annual giving had exceeded $100million. This total was reported by 442 member institutions. The Fund Survey pointed out that, "Gratified as it is by the $100 million bench mark established by the 1956 Fund Survey, the American Alumni Council makes it clear that this figure falls short of the potential of alumni support to higher education—as alumni come to recognize the importance of their role in financing higher education the totals seem certain to climb—" SoonMr. Rich will be discussing with alumni, methods of proceeding with the task at hand. I hope all of you will assume your task in the same way he has. Then truly will alumni assume their share of the "ownership" of the Univer- sity. Sincerely Yours, ChancellorClifford C. Furnas and Campaign Chairman Charles H. Diefendorf announced Robert E. Rich's acceptance as Chairmanof the Alumni Committee for the 1957-58 campaign for a Greater University of Buffalo. The officialannouncementwas made to the Executive Committeeof the General Alumni Board by President Edward F. Mimmack, DDS'2O,at their meeting on May 1. As an undergraduate, Mr. Rich, BS (Bus)'3s, was a class officerfor four years, captain of the football team in 1933 and 1934, captain of the wrestling team in 1933 and student coach in 1934. He was a member of the Athletic Council in both 1933 and 1934 and was elected to the Bisonhead Society in the latter year. After graduation, he coached the University's freshmanfootball team for two years. In 1936, he was elected Alumni Representative to the Athletic Council and in 1937 served as President of the Business Administration Alumni Association. Mr. Rich was a member of the Centennial Committeein 1947 and the Greater University of BuffaloDevelopment Committee in 1952. He is a Past President of the General Alumni Board and is presently an active member of the Board's Executive Committee. He has been a member of the University of Buffalo Council since 1950,served on the Building and Grounds Committee, and since 1952 has been a member of the Council's GeneralAdministration Committee. Bulletin 3 �EXAMINATION A Condensation of the June Commencement Address by Chancellor Clifford C. Furnas ginning it has been part of the Great American Dream that everyperson who has the requisite intellectual ability, and is willing to make the effort should have the opportunity to go to college. In the eyesof the older cultures this has been a rash and foolish, if not downright stupid, point of view. But we have never, as a nation, relinquished that ideal. It was only 16 years after the Pilgrim Fathers landed that the first institution of higher education in America was founded—Harvard College, in 1636. It was truly a grass-roots movement, in response to public needs and desires. The second great and significant ad- Dr. Clifford C. Furnas opened his comaddress by personally congratulating the SSOmembers of the 195" graduating class. He then posed a series of questions tor them to answeror not.as they like. "The nrst question, he stated, "is very simple: What ire you going to do tomorrow* He then followed that inquiry with a series of questions.

This was the foundation pattern for our state universities. The latest movement of major significance in American higher education has been the rise in importance of the "urban" university—of which, I feel justified in saying, The University of Buffalo is one of the stronger examples. At first glance the urban universities together and ask yourself: Are you a betseem to have few characteristics in comter, as well as a more usefulcitizen, as judged by yourself and your associates, mon.

From the bestantial way, to solve it. Alumni 4 �In approaching our future, it is well for analyze the virtues and the real or imagined defects of the urban universities. This is an excellent exercise for everyinstitution to go through at fairly frequent intervals, no matter how estimable it may consider itself to be. To manypeople the most obvious virtue of the urban university is that whatever it has to offer is here—on location where the people are. Second,because of proximity, one can live at home and get a university education for less money than if he goesaway. Third, because of proximity and dedication of faculty and administration to the region, the university program and curriculum are readily responsive to the advanced educational needs of the region. Look at the other side of the coin. Are there defects and, if so, can they be corrected?There are those who have a vague feeling that a proper education can only be acquired in an isolated institution, in a semi-rural setting, with sweeping lawns and ivy-covered walls. If lawns and collegiate ivy are the essentials of the situation, I would ask you to observe that both are doing quite well here—in a distinctly urban setting. One's pride in one's institution need not be solely rooted in contemplation of aged traditions or an array of great accomplishments. There will be times when you feel the warm glow of recall of the chimes in the clock tower, the beauty of the driving snow across this wind-swept knoll on some bitter winter day, the word of encouragement from your grouchiest professor when you, perhaps, needed it most, the friendly banter of a classmate. These may all be little things, but taken together they make you feel that you are part of a dynamic, driving, vital and intensely human entity. I trust your University has also given you these elements for future quiet pride and pleasus to — relatively expensive, they will come slowly, but they are of paramount importance and will be accomplished. Because of our large proportion of commuting students, and our involvement with local interests,have we become undulyprovincial? Is the often-used,slightly opprobrious characterization of "the street-car college" justified? The answer is: partially, yes. We, along with other urban universities, are aware of the defect and are embarked along the remedial road. Oneline of attack is ourdormitory program to accommodate a number of out-of-city students. If our university has virtues, we should not selfishly limit their availability to those who happen to live within commuting radius. Further, it is certainly true that students who are in residence,who come from a different locality, who live the university life twenty-four hours a day, do contribute immensely to the breadth of the institution, to a wholeness of purpose, to theesprit dc corps, and to loyalty. Everyone gains." In paraphrasing Dr. Furnas,he stated that the one problem facing all Universities is the tidal wave of greatly increased numbers of people of age 18 to 22 now approaching the college gates. Population increase and desirability of acquiring a college education present a problem in numbers which will touch everycitizen not just a few administrators. But no mistake should be made,the millions of prospective students will be served,under the label of higher education, in some manner or other. The second part of the problem thus becomes, what methods should be used to handle the expected numbers?Should we change the old programs or keep them intact? To arrive at any sound answers, facilities and freedom of experiment in the years to come must be available to — teachers and administrators. The introduction of the Atomic Age Digging further into the substance, marked a change, not just in military matters, but also in physical and biologihowever, I have some other questions which I believe are pertinent to the situcal science,in international relations and ation.

What changes bemused with pragmatism and utilitarishould be made in some aspect of our anism that we have overemphasized universal education and how should we "practical" at the expense of "liberal" go about making them. The answers can only be developedby the effortsof a large education. I believe we are at least parnumber of people—particularly in those tially guilty. We, along with most other urban universities,are attempting to coruniversities that have the freedom to explore the best ways to adapt education to rect that. We are justly proud of our probut we realize that fessional schools a the needs of a world which is changing with phenomenal rapidity. university education should embrace "As a final point," Dr. Furnas said, something more than professional train"may I ask you to consider with me the ing, for the future welfare of the individual, the region and the nation. The role of the private universities vis-a-vis those which are tax-supported. This is no corrections will be difficult, they will be ant nostalgia. mere academic question. It is one of the greatest importance. I emphasize this because there is a growing tendency for many citizens to say in response to any problem of public responsibility, "Let the government worry about it and pay for it." Strangely, we seem to be forgetting that no citizen can delegate or forget his own responsibilities without some loss of his individuality and personal sovereignty for which his forefathers,and probably he,himself, fought some bitter battles. Neither can he get something for nothing. When the government pays for it —everyonepays,through the taxroute. In terms of numbers,the students in private and tax-supported institutions of higher education are now about equal. It is an excellent, balanced pattern. It is pointless to argue about which is the more important, because in modern America, either would be in dire straits without the other. It will truly be a sad day, if either type of institution passes out of existence,or is rendered ineffective. If one peruses the history of the world, he will probably note that during the past two centuries, almost without exception, the only major nations which have not been conquered or over-run, or which have not submitted to the will of a dictator, have been those which have had a well-balanced system of both private and publicly-supported higher education. I feelthat this is much more than a coincidence. A great part of American eminence is directly attributable to this dual educational pattern. It is vital to our welfare that it continue. In summary, the course of American civilization has been based to a verygreat degree on the effectivenessof a unique pattern of higher education,principally involving the traditional private institutions, the state universities,and the privately-supported urban universities. Since we are now predominantly an urban civilization, the urban universities have the major obligation to meet the new quantitative and qualitative educational demands of the latter half of the twentieth century. But the task ahead of us is one which will tax the ingenuity and resources of every type of college and university. May all the institutions, their growing bodies of alumni, and the American public as a whole, which has developed such a remarkable industrial civilization, have the wisdom, courage and perseverance to provide the guidance and support for the best possible educational opportunities for our children and our children's children—even ad infinitum." Bulletin 5 �Are Our Children Handicapped by Having Parents Dr. Drasgow Who Are Alumni? — Drasgow has received three degrees from The University of Buffalo; BA. '48, M.A. '50, and Ph.D. '52. His father received the Ph.G. in 1913from U.B. Dr. Drasgow has done research and published articles in the professional journals of four differentfields: Psychiatry, clinical psychology,counseling psychology andeducation. He is currently Acting Director of Student Counseling, ChiefCounselor for Men, and Lecturer in Psychology at The University ofBuffalo. This article is based on his experiences in counseling with manyof the students who have had difficulties in getting through The University of (^Editor's note Dr. Buffalo^} by Dr. James Drasgow A university can be a haven for the education of the members of an upper IQ income bracket. But the haven is often turned to a happy hell by some hellions who would rather live a life of laughter than become educated. However, the condition is often an understandable celebration of a new freedom that is enjoyed after a parole from this culture's overprotective parents. The laughing life usually dies a natural death during the first two years of college; the would-bestudents who haven't sobered-up during this time will have generally committed academic suicide. Somestudents succumb for other reasons. The survivors, although not necessarily absolved from more than occasional suspicions of playfulness,may continue on to enjoy a revival of formerfrolicking at proms, parties and alumni reunions. A Man of Families One man in his lifetime is a member of many families. We are a member of our father'sfamily and of our own family, of our church family, political family and alumni family. The world is full of families. I would like to focus on two: our own family and the alumni family. Our own family for the present purpose consists of our sons and daughters. Oneof the most striking characteristics of sons and daughters is that you would seldom recognize them from their parents' descriptions. Ac worst a child is not a genius, but there are other features which make the child just as good, if not better. This is actually a lot of superiority complex nonsense. College graduates in particular house the unholy assumption that IQ is hereditary. The authorities on IQism, the psychologists, thru repeated and corroborated research studies, have failed to demonstrate that IQ is hereditary. Nevertheless we usually persist with the old tribal attitude as if our children were the exceptions that proved the rule. Many students show symptoms of family pressure to attend college. Someparents play the role of high-pressure salesmen in trying to talk their children into college; other parents or relatives or friendsmay use a low-pressure sales approach. Grooming a child for college is often an eighteen year process. During this time an almost infinite number of opportunities are provided for a salesman to experiment, modify, and score. Many of the students we see often show the signs of having been pushed, pulled, manipulated or seduced into college. After 18 years of it they are sometimes sadly chronic cases. Not infrequently they are nearly "nervous wrecks and the additional pressure of quizzes, tests, and exams provides an easyway to go from bad to worse. This is a sad situation because in-coming college students should really be in top-notch physical and psychological shape so that they will not have to suffermore than necessaryfrom " Alumni 6 �the standard four yearsof exposure on our windy campus. As parents in our own family and as members of our alumni family, we might appreciate certain dual family responsibilities. For example say we have a son or daughter who is not really interested in attending college and the high school record corroborates it. By manipulating the child into college we may easily upset his psyche and concomitantly disturb or disrupt an alumni family body. Parents often think only of the white collar job opportunities for their college graduate children plus the seldom verbalized enhancement of their own egosby having children who are college graduatees. The total price of pressured college attendance should not be underestimated;don't forget that the pressures we exert on a child can ruin his psychological guts. The Will to Attend Itis relatively easyto guesswhether a person can or cannot attend college from the viewpoint of simple things like money or brains. The big problem is to find out ifthe person really wants it. After being subjected to 18 years of parental propaganda, it is often difficult to determine whether the child wants to go to college because he wants to go or because his parents want him to go. A person should do things with his own enthusi- asm and motivation rather than with his parents' or grandparents' enthusiasms. It is particularly poignant to note here that the children and students who have a "mind of their own" also often have an enthusiasm and motivation of their own. We need more students with minds and motivations of theirown. Many parents vicariously attend college thru their children. The student is oftena tool in the hands of the vicariously attending parents. The poor student is caught between his parent and himself. He can't be himself because of parental pressures and he can't be his parents becauseof reality. Reality is indeed the most important and most frequently overlooked factor. Too often reality is taken to be one person's subjective impression. The messy problem here is that when the boss has a subjective impression, it better be reality for you or else. Severalrecent studies suggest that students may be somewhat handicapped by having college graduate parents; the content of these studies indicates that the children of college grads may not do as well as the children of parents who have had no college.* Why? Too many of the college graduates* children have been brought-up to assume that they will go and thereforetake college for granted and proceed to act accordingly while attending. The goofing-offis usually a symptom of really not being serious about attending. When somebody else pays all the expenses of a student's attendance,he usually is not as highly motivated or mature about attending. Students who have to devote some time to working in order to pay atleast part of their wayare generally more motivated to get their money's worth. In view of the foregoing, the least we can say is that being an alumnus may present certain problems and that being the child of alumni also presents problems. Because of all the problems involved, it would appear rather rough to be two or more of the following: the child of alumni, an alumnus, or a parent of future alumni. It's a miracle there are so many of us, but let's face it. *See for example: Hollingshead, 8.5., Who ShouldGoto College. Columbia University Press,1952. Kean, W.

Home Living vs. Dorm Living In the process of doing a research projsometime ago, it was discovered that the students who lived in residence halls tended to last longer in college than did the students who lived at home. This differencewas puzzling and an investigation was immediately launched in an attempt to locate reasons for the differential academic mortality rates. A routine review of the research literature revealed no previously published results relevant to the issue. Twenty-six hypotheses were formulated to account for the difference.For example, it was theorized that the dorm students might last longer in college because they had higher I.Q.'s, more money, more maturity, higher high school averages,greater social success, or higher college averages. After converting the hypotheses into measurable terms, data were collected in order to statistically determine if any of the 26 hypothesized differences actually existed at a factual level. Out of all the 26 ect Bulhrtin possibilities that were studied, only five were found to be of any consequence. Four of these fivedifferencesmay be seen meaningfully as two pairs of two while the fifth stands singly. The first pair of outstanding differences between groups was with the socioeconomic status of the family and the number of the father's yearsof education. Dorm students had more of both and it would not be unreasonable to suspect that these two factors may be closely related: more education may be associated with more income and higher socio-economic status. The other pair of differences was obtwo of the college aptitude tests in the college entrance tests that are taken by entering freshmen.The students who lived at home did better on both. It is indeed alarming that the students who score higher on college aptitude tests have neither higher college averagesnor do they last longer in college than those with lower aptitude test scores. Does it tained on by Dr. James Drasgow take more to get through college than aptitude? Love is not enough; maybe aptitude isn't either. The fifth and last difference that was discovered consisted of the number of things about which students worry, e.g. occupational possibilities, choice of major field, ability to concentrate, harmony at home,and money. The dorm students had more worries. In conjunction with other research findings it is corroborative to note that the dorm students had both more worries and fatherswith more education. This suggests again arelationship found in other studies between paternal education and problems possessed by progeny. One of the more interesting considerations indicated by the foregoing findings is that students who live at home may have more brains, but the students who live in dormitories last longer academically. So, which is better, brains or a college degree? 7 �DIRECTORY OF THE UNIVERSITY OF BUFFALO ALUMNI ASSOCIATIONS AND AREA CLUBS EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE, GENERAL ALUMNI BOARD PRESIDENT:Owen B.

Heald,Ford Foundation president, visited Buffalo to take part in The University of Buffalo's 111th anniversary. Dr. Heald, former president of New York University and the Illinois Institute of Technology, met with the University Senateon "Founders Day" and discussed his experiences as head of those two great institutions. Dr. Heald took part on the cornerstone dedication of the music building and spoke to the University Council and Development Board on "Philanthropy and Higher Education.'' During his visit, Dr. Heald stated that the Ford Foundation generally has supported private institutions, but for particular projects state supported units have grants. He stressed that it is important to have strong private and strong received public institutions. The Foundation has directed its aid to the private ones because they do not have the source of revenue of state universities. Dr. Heald observed that the general problem in education is to increase the resources in both private and public education. Quantity and quality of facilities and teachers must be improved.

Alumni 10 �Development Newsletter This special supplement has beer, prepared by the office of UniversityDevelopment to acquaint Alumni with interesting sidelights concerning the growth of the University. Additional supplementswill follow. Dear Alumnus: Did you realize that this year over 500 students at the University received financial aid of more than $200,000.00 through the Alumni Fund, Loan Funds, Scholarship Funds, etc. ? Were it not for the generosity of so many of you through the Alumni Loyalty Fund, Loan Funds and Scholarships, this ac- complishment would never have been realized. *********** On the campus we now have four dormitories up and occupied. Each of these houses 150 students, and all were acquired by the University with no capital outlay. Three savings banks of Buffalo financed the buildings through mortgages on the property. These mortgages are self-amortizing over the next forty years from the income of students in residence. *********** A new dormitory is going up in the center of the other four, and again at no capital expense to the University. Government $2,300,000.00 and again from student income. The University borrowedfrom the Federal will pay it back during the next forty years, This new building will be an unusual one, rising �--Z eleven stories--as — high as the Veteran's Hospital--it makes one think of the United Nations Building in New York. Thi» structure will house 468 students and will include separate dining rooms, study rooms and lounges. *********** Our new laboratory building for carbon research has recently been completed. The new Music Building now under construction, named Frank Burkett Baird Hall, is located at the north end of the campus on Main Street, and will be ready for use in September. *********** Ground has recently been broken for the new 4-story Research Building, a part of the Medical School, to be known as Sherman Hall. *********** Speaking of current needs, we cannot stress too strongly the importance of Leadership Scholarship Awards through the Alumni Loyalty Fund. It has enabled many deserving students to take advantage of the varied academic opportunities the University of Buffalo offers. Lately, a prominent Alumnus cited the case of a student aided by a Loyalty Fund Scholarship. man had received financial assistance when his need This young was greatest. After establishing himself, when approachedfor a contribution to the Alumni Loyalty Fund, he gave extremely generously, with the simple explanation that he felt that he could never repay the University what he owed it, and this was the manner in which he chose to show his appreciation. *********** �-.-3 —- Two years ago, an addition was made to Norton Union which seats over 400 students in the cafeteria. This was paid for from profit of the bookstore over the past ten years, and the assumed profit during future years. Again, this $400,000.00 addition cost the University no capital outlay. *********** You have probably noticed the new sign at the campus entrance. This sign tells what is going on currently, and was a gift from Thurber Le Win, MD '21. *********** The new lights that illuminate Hayes Hall tower at night were the gift of Mr. Karr Parker, a member of the University Council. *********** The Alumni Loyalty Fund office has had many inquiries as to whether participation is limited to degree holders. Absolutely not. Contributions are welcome from anyone interested in the University, alumni or not, and may we suggest that the University be remembered in your will. *********** There is now room on the campus for parking 2,500 cars, and still parking is a problem. When you recall that we now have in full attendance on the campus 6,500 students, and another 4,500 part-time and night session students, this University has really grown from the time when most of us attended. *********** The U. B. Chronic Disease Research Institute, which you may remember as the former Marine Hospital, is now owned by The University, again acquired without capital expenditure. This was obtained at a price of $400,000.00, and �4 if it is retained for teaching or research for the next twenty years, the govern- ment will give it to the University at a 100% discount. It is now a functioning unit of the Medical School. *********** Other buildings visualized in the near future for the campus are: A Health Science Center to house Pharmacy, Nursing Arts. A Biology, Physio-Therapy and Occupational Therapy Building. A Chemistry Building. An Arts and Science classroom Building. Social Service Department Building. *********** The Alumni Loyalty Fund office is interested in serving you in the best way possible, and particularly in keeping you informed of the Loyalty Fund affairs. As we only have your last address on record to mail bulletins and news, you can see how important it is to keep us posted for any recent address change. *********** Did you know that: The University is thirty-fifth in size of enrollment of all Universities in the country, and fifteenth in size of student body among independent Universities. The Faculty has 1,300 members. The campus has 176 acres. There are now 22 buildings on the campus. There are 14 separate divisions of the University. It takes 150 maintenance workers to clean, repair, police, etc., the University. The University has 22,000 Alumni, located in every corner of the world. There are 7 1/2 miles of sidewalks to shovel on the campus, tons of coal to warm the buildings. *********** and it takes 5,000 �Edgar C Beck, MD'19, is Capen Award Winner f The SamuelP. Capen Alumni Award Ifor 1957 was awarded to Edgar C. Beck, IMD'l9, the annual General Alumni Board Dinner held at the Buffalo Athletic Club on June 8. The citation was read by the outgoing president of the GAB, Edward F. Mimmack, DDS*2I, and presented to Dr. Beck by the incoming president, Owen B. Augspurger Jr., LLB'37. The citation read, in part, as follows: "This occasion marks the Bth presentation of the Capen award, and it is significant that the committee's selection was in their opinion, both inevitable and unanimous,so important and continuous have been his activities in behalf of the alumni and the University. at Since his graduation from The University of Buffalo Medical Schoolin 1919 he has given countless hours and untiring devotion to his alma mater and his profession. In 1921-22 he was an assistant in medicine on the faculty of The University of Buffalo Medical School. In 1923 he became an instructor in medicine then an instructor in pharmacology and medicine. In 1926 he was an associate in medicine. By 1943 he was assistant professor of medicine and therapeutics and since 1949 has been associate clinical professor medicine. He is probably best known to alumni of for his leadership in establishing the Annual Participating Fund for Medical Education. Through his boundless enthusiasm and tireless drive he inspired both solicitors and donors of this great campaign. Although he has always been first to insist that the project could never have been a success without its strong, active and dedicated Executive Committee, one name, nevertheless is primarily associated with the Fund —that of its dynamic organizer. So important were his individual contributions to medical education,that in 1955 The University honored him with an alumni citation for work in that field. His distinguished career as a successful internist would in itself make him one of the community's most respected citizens. His dedication to community health and medical education is completely selfless. He is a Diplomate of The American Board of Internal Medicine, a Fellow of the American College of Physicians, a member of the American Medical Association, the Erie County Medical Society, the New York StateMedical Society and is associate consulting physician of Meyer Memorial Hospital. EDGAR C. BECK, MD'l9 He is Chairmanof The Medical Division of the Alumni Loyalty Fund, and Chairman of the Executive Committee for The Medical Annual Participating Fund.

Bulletin 17 �Bylaws Changes Passed by GAB Alumni Day Satisfies...... the youngsters The General Alumni Board Bylaws revisions were passed at the annual General Alumni Board dinner on June 8 at the BuffaloAthletic Club.They must now be presented to the University Council for ratification. Changes in the bylaws were suggested because of a need to provide a channel of participation where the best qualified people amongthe alumni would be able to serve regardless of school representation. For over a year,at each G.A.B. meeting some time was given to consideration of providing for a wider participation of alumni in alumni affairs and bylaw changes were set up to provide a wider number of committee activities where leadership qualities could be noticed and new blood supplied to the GeneralAlumni Board. Proposed bylaw changes reduces the number of Vice Presidents to four and reduces Past Presidents from ten to five. A provision for appointment of six people at large to the G.A.B. and the provision for appointment of three advisors by the President as members of the Executive Committeefrom theG.A.B., provides the necessaryflexibility. The change in the committee system contains the most important improvements in the new bylaws. These changes, found in Articles VI, read as follows. SectionI. The Executive Committee shall consist of the officers ofThe General Alumni Board, ihree other members ofThe General Alumni Board appointed by the president atthe 1inectingfrom among the alumni member^ of The Lr vcrsity Council, three other members of The General Alnmni Board appointed by the president with the approval of the ExecutiTe Committee,and the past presidents of The General Alomni Boardof thepreceding fire yearswho shall be honorary vicepresidents servingas counselorswithout vote.

Copies of the revised bylaws are available upon request at The University of Buffalo Alumni Office, 138 Hayes Hall. The Alumni Weekend,and especially Alumni Family Day had an appeal for everyone.Alumni from '07 mingled with the grad of '57. The children romped all over the place, unable to make up their minds whether to ride the carousel,the "Tooncrville" trolley or the "real, live" ponies. The TUNK area was booming with scores of customers attempting to get at least one more glass of the rapidly disappearing beer. There were small, intimate gatherings such as the morning coffee in Michael Hall, the '47 class cocktail party preceding the dance and the General Alumni Board Annual Dinner at the BAC. Then there were the big, noisy affairs such as the '57 grads descending upon the tents, the law class of '32 reunion at the BAC, the Theta Chi Sorority cocktail party at the Hotel Worth and finally the Alumnae Dance itself. For everyone's taste, some- Edß'4o and Edward C.Randall, BS(Bus) *40,Akron,Ohio;RuthSchwendlerSetaro, BS(Bus)'46 and Rocco Setaro, DDS'47, Huntington, L. L; Vincent A.

The turnout for the afternoonactivities was estimated at 500 alumni, husbands, wives,children and friends. The '57 class contributed another 250 for a short time after graduation rehearsal. and the "old" grads thing wasoffered. But, for more than anyone,it was a day for the children. The moms and dads hardly had time to register at the tent when they were being tugged toward the rides located along the hedgerow near Rotary Field. There was ice cream, soft drinks, hamburgers and hot dogs to satisfy their hunger. The "ole swimmin" hole had a welcomed revival with the Clark Gym pool acting as a worthy substitute for over 50 children. The out-of-town alumni included: Richmond D. Moot, LLB'O7, Schencctady; John P. Russell, BS(Bus)'32, New Hartford, N. Y.; Helen Schroder Randall, " Judge SamuelHarris, LLB'O7, LLM'OB, Mrs. Moot and Richmond D. Moot, LLB'O7.

The great improvement was attributed to the size of the squad, the largest he has had at U.8., and the players willingest to learn as they look ahead toward the most difficult schedule a U.B. team has encountered in years. football Competition for everyposition iskeen. No longer is there only a 24 man squad that will guarantee a playing position for each man. Every spot will be three men deep and each man will have to fight for the starting post. The most significant change on the team is the shift of big Lou Reale from fullback to center. This leaves the fullback spot open for 195 pound sophomore Dave Brogan or Pete Courneen, with Ralph Folino right on their backs. Reale expects to get most of his opposition from dental student Jack Lipinski. The tackles are really going to have a time of it. Fran Woidzik, 250 pound mainstay of last year's eleven is being challenged for the first time in his career by three other behemoths. Sophomore Bernie Fagan, a 225 pounder from Caledonia, has been terrific in his freshman appearance. Bob Adams,another sophomore weighing in at 215,has been shifted from end to tackle and he and Jack Welch at 230 have been fighting bone and muscle for the right tackle job. Captain Remo Damiani will have plenty of competition at guard. Sam Sanders at 198,Charlie Tyrone at 195, StanKowalski at 190,Nate Bliss at 200 and Joe O'Grady at 195 will give the Bulls their greatest depth at the guard spot in years. The end positions are wide open with incumbents Dick Schwertsfager, Nick Bottini and Jim Gibbons being pressured heavilyby Carley Keats,a cousin of halfback Jim Keats. All the backfield positions remain very much in doubt. Sophomore Willie Evans will give Junior Ken Born a great fight for the left halfback job. Jim Keats,last year'sright half, is back again and looks good. Jim Grapes, Bob Muscarella and Skip Hawkins will make the halfback jobssomething to work for. Quarterbacking is a definite problem on next year's squad. It will be a wide open berth and right now a tossup between Bill McGarva, Dick VanValkenburgh and sophomores Jim Allegretto and Fred Kogut. With all the fine material to choose from, Coach Offenhamer's task is both pleasant and frustrating. His able lieutenants Karl Kluckhohn and Fred Dun- lap have been pleased with the spirit shown by the boys in the spring tuneup. Ron Laßocque, freshmancoach,looks on with envy at the fine start the varsity has had. Ron, as yet without a replacement for his assistant Buzz Buzzelli,hopes for a freshmanteam with comparable ability. Canton,N.

Alumni �The Further Education of a Professor Comments on Education in Pakistan and Europe as Experienced by Dr. Robert Fisk, dean of the School of Education at the University In these days one should be prepared for almost anything, but when asked in and almost "by the way" manner if Fd be interested in spending five months in Pakistan and Europe I was completely taken aback. Immediately it seemed there were innumerable professional and personal reasons which made such a venture impossible. None-the-less, five weeks to the day from the original exploratory conversation,Mrs. Fisk and I were en route to Pakistan,commencing an experience for which we can find no more appropriate term than fabulous. The assignment was a fascinating one for any educator. Dr. Francis S. Chaseof the University of Chicago had been requested by the Ford Foundation to provide consultants to the Central and Provincial Ministries of Education of Pakistan for the purpose of assisting Pakistan educators to prepare for the developplans or schemes as they are termed ment of centers for the in-service education of teachers and for the development of a number of pilot secondary schools which it is hoped will serve to stimulate secondary education generally. The American consultants were to spend two and one-half months in Pakistan attempting to gain an appreciation and some understanding of the educational and cultural factors relating to the task of improving secondary education and teach education. Following this we were asked to accompany a team of Pakistan educators on a two-months tour of nine European countries and a six weeks visit in the United States observing contemporary developments in both fields and conferring throughout upon the particular problems to be faced in Pakistan. In addition to the challenge to be faced fifth largest in trying to be of assistance to a new nation in population in the world the prospect of studying schools in Pakistan and throughout Europe represented a total opportunity for which we might be well envied. Certainly it is one for which each of us who participated will be grateful forever. For one whose previous travels had been confined to the United States,with but short sojourns north and south of the border, the trip was in itself a challenge, without regard to the educational problems to be faced. The long flight to Tokyo was made doubly pleasant by the fact that Mrs. Fisk and I were in the company of Vice-Chancellor and Mrs. Claude E. Puffer who were en route to the centennial celebration of the University of Calcutta. They continued on to South East Asia while we paused briefly to visit friends in Tokyo and at the International Christian University. We — spent three days in Manila inquiring into progressin secondary education in the Philippines and teacher education at the University of the Philippines. After an over-night stop in Calcutta, where we exchanged notes with Dr. and Mrs. Puffer, we continued on to New Delhi where we were the guests of Mrs. Bhatia and Mrs. Jacobs, two Indian educators who had been members of the Visiting Educators groupson our campus two and three yearsago. We dined sumptuously in the company of members of the Ministry of Education of India, rinding them extremely enthusiastic about contemporary developments in secondary education in India and com- menting favorably on the assistance provided and the leadership demonstrated by American educators who had served in India. — — — Children in West Pakistan frequently have their lessons outside during winter months in order to receive the warmth of the sun. On January 21 we arrived in Karachi where we were met by Dr. George Gant, the Ford Foundation representative in Pakistan, and by Dr. Kenneth Rehage of the University of Chicago, with whom we were to spend the next several months. After several days briefing in Karachi, Dr. Rehage, Mrs. Fisk and I began our tour of secondary schools,teacher training colleges, and other educational institutions throughout Pakistan traveling as far north as the Khyber Pass and the principality of Swat, a semi-autonomous state in North Bulletin 3 �West Pakistan. In mid-February we flew across the Indian sub-continent to Dacca in East Pakistan. There we lived in the same hotel with Dr. and Mrs. Burvil Glenn of The University of Buffalo School of Education. Dr. Glenn spent the 1956-57 academic year as a Fulbright scholar in Pakistan, directing workshops for secondary school teachers throughout both provinces. On March 15 we were joinedby Dr. Chase for a brief tour throughout both provinces. Then on the morning of April 2 we left Karachi accompanied by three Pakistan educators. After four days in Turkey we continued on to Europe where we visited schools and colleges and talked with educators in Switzerland, West Germany, France,Denmark, Sweden, Norway, Scotland, and England, continuing on to the United States on June Ist. One can hardly speak of such an experience in terms of "findings", when our observations have been as limited in time and as conditioned by an experience prior to that which was wholely American. Instead we can speak only of impressions and leave to the reader the necessaryqualifications. But we surely enjoy giving our impressions! In common with many of the underdeveloped countries, Pakistan is making a tremendous effort to extend the range of educational opportunity to its youth as well as to enrich the existing programs. At a time when the nation is operating under extremely stringent economic conditions and controls, this requires that difficult decisions be made as to the most effective manner in which to spend the resources available for Education. In Pakistan the decision has been that every effort should be made to improve the quality of education presently offered rather than to expand educational opportunity on any large scale. Thus only 50% of male youth enjoy a significant school experience and less than 15% of the girls have an equal opportunity. While one can find in Pakistan schools ranging in quality from excellent to very poor, it is all too true that the typical situation is one in which a large number of children are housed in inadequate facilities and taught by an ill-prepared teacher with little or nothing available in the form of significant instructional materials, textbooks and the like. One of the wholesome aspects of our visit was that no one made any effort to gloss over the inadequacies of the present program. Instead all possible efforts are being made toward considering and acting upon ways and means by which present inadequacies can be remedied. It is this attitude which has resulted in a high priority being given to attempts to improve the quality of secondary education. A new high school in the tribal regions near the Khyber Pass. Until independence, secondary education in Pakistan under British colonial rule had been considered as primarily for boys preparing for minor governmental positions. Todays program differs little and can be described as very bookish in character and highly literary with relatively little emphasis on the sciences and typically no learning experiences of a technical character. The curriculum is crowded with three to five languages including English. The instruction is typically in English rather than in the national or regional tongue and is almost entirely of a lecture character. External examinations largely control the character and aims of instruction and dictate the motivation of students. Since upon his success in the examinations is determined the whole future of a pupil, including further educational opportunity and the security to or chances for governmentemployment be gained from this every effort is bent toward reaching the the upper rangeson matriculation, or terminal, examinations. — — A handicraftsdemonstration class in a Pakistan primary school. The secondary schools have been under the control of the colleges and universities which traditionally prepared the matriculation examinations which in turn serve as entrance examinations to their institutions. Recently it has been seen that the secondary schools have a general education function and should provide terminal education for many youth. As a result the responsibility for syllabi and examinations has been transferred to Boards of Secondary Education under whose leadership one can anticipate progresstoward liberalizing the nature of the secondary education program. However, much remains to be done in providing facilities and equipment for broader programs of education and in the development of a core of highly qualified teachers competent to develop a curriculum consistent with present and future demands of the Pakistan culture upon its youth. This observer was surprised to learn of the great dependence of Pakistan upon private secondary schools. Government or public secondary schools appear to be seen largely as standards-setting institutions rather than a means for providing a mass educational opportunity. The private schools are expected to meet certain minimum standards set by the provincial ministries, and receive small stipends from the provincial government. However, it is rare that a private educational institution should receive additional help from citizens and other private resources. These schools are completely dependent upon the tuitions they receive plus their Alumni 4 �government subsidy. Thus there is a strong temptation to enroll each and every student who meets minimum qualifications and who has the necessaryfee. At a time when the populace generally is seeking wider educational opportunity, diis leads to a tremendous pressure upon these schools and inevitably to large classes and dependence upon highly formalized teaching procedures. Despite these dominant characteristics we were continually impressed by the dedication of the Pakistani to the importance of education for youth. We were disturbed by the reliance placed in attendance at a school where often we found little significant learning experiences. Essentially the learning process is rote memorization of lecture notes and textbooks with relatively little opportunity provided for applying information to problem situations. Much of this has been re-enforcedby the teacher education programswhich are themselves highly stylized and dependent largely on the lecture approach. Despite this we were impressed by the informal discussion procedures in some colleges and by the importance with which practice teaching was viewed throughout all teacher preparation. There is much evidence that the leadership in education is not ignoring the cultural factors which must be affected if significant progress is to be made in secondary education. Responsible government leaders are insistent in their demands for more highly qualified public service employees than the present secondary schools of high quality. The Ford Foun- dation and the United States and British Council aid programs are slowly but surely making major contributions to improve education at all levels. While present conditions are far from wholesome,the tone and spirit of leadership in education has steadily improved. Thus we can hope for improvement with real assurance it will steadily develop. As we moved on from Pakistan we were impressed by the progressmade in Turkey, finding many implications diere for developments to be encouraged in Pakistan. While our Pakistani friends were more than a little disturbed by the evident break from many Moslem traditions in Turkey they were impressed with the rapidity of development of education at all levels in this most dynamic country, one which appears to be rushing headlong toward modern civilization.

Turkey furnished a good bridge between Pakistan and what we were to observe in northern Europe and in the British Isles. While indeed there are variations from country to country, among those which we visited diere seem to be certain very definite common trends and much to challenge the even best practice in the United States. One trend is toward the expansion of educational opportunity at the secondary level and a general broadening of the types of programs available. The so-called comprehensive high school is still in the experimental stage, but yet can be observed in nearly every country in one form or another. The children are strictly grouped according to apparent academic ability within the school,but a given school may offer classes ranging from very academic curricula through the technical curricula to less demanding general education programs. Of far more compelling interest to us were the attempts to determine the competencies of youdi and then to route them through specialized curricula to a profession, trade, or a service occupation. While we could challenge the rigidity of the categorization of students and the reliance upon tests given at an early age,we were impressed with the steps that were taken to provide the more able youth with out-standing intellectual experiences. Standards were high and apparently expense was of no concern when it came to providing the best possible educational opportunities for an able youth what ever his social or economic status. Of equal interest was the wide use of occupational interest as a motivation for educational experience and the careful attempt to put intellectual development and vocational preparation into a combined experience for older adolescents. Thus a boy or girl might be employed in a task or skill of his choice, and at the same time continue his general education. This seemed quite in contrast with our tendency here to delay jobopportunities for most youths until they have finished a general educational experience or reached a minimum school leaving age. We were also continually impressed with the high status with which teachers felt they were held by the populance at large. Typically the schools we visited had provided liberally for teachers' workrooms,recreation facilities, lunch rooms and the like. One gained a distinct impression diat the teacher was a personality who was appreciated in the school environment and the community and that his status was indeed significant. This seemed to be reflectedin the quality of the people who were serving as teachers. While we may have been led to the more able people we certainly found few (Con't. on page 21) 5 �Citations On September 30 at a Civic Citation Luncheon on the University campus, citations were presented to twelve leaders for distinguished contributions to business and community life.

Alumni 10 �Development Newsletter This special supplement has been prepared by the office of University Development to acquaint Alumni with interesting sidelights concerning the growth of the University. Additional supplements will follow. Dear Alumnus: We would like to go on record as saying; "MONEY ISN'T EVERYTHING 11 (BUT IT'S WAY AHEAD OF WHATEVER IS IN SECOND PLACE) Certainly it isn't a measure of college loyalty. Most of our alumni feel that no amount of money will repay the Univer- sity of Buffalo for what they received here. But the facts are that tuitions pay only about 50% of the cost of a university education--it is the generosity of others that makes up the difference-- others who were interested in your receiving the best education that could be had. Therein lies the legend of the �2 In your hands and in the hands of these campaign leaders lies the future of The University of Buffalo. Here is a breakdown of how this money will be used. A new classroom building and clinic center, and reconstruction, to accommodate part of the College of Arts and Sciences, the School of Social Work, $1,400,000 and the School of Education 1,850,000 Chemistry Laboratory, building and facilities Health Sciences Center, to accommodate the SchoolsofPharmacy and Nursing, and the Biology Department 1,950,000 1,500,000 Sherman Hall addition to present medical research facilities Buildings proposed Music and Visual Arts of the Fine Arts Center 1,400,000 For construction of Hochstetter Hall (Physics) Endowment for the support ofFaculty and instruction. 500,000 1,000,000 $9,600,000 Of this total, approximately 34% is expected to come from special gifts; foundations; 25%, industries; 7% from alumni; 4% from faculty and administration; 1% from students, and 1% from parents. There is a certain irony lying within these statistics, for though alumni are responsible for only 7% of the objective, it is much more important than the others. Why So? Because one of the first questions asked by foundation executives and industrialists is, "Are your alumni behind you?". A negative answer will in all likelihood result in a turndown. This fact helps justify our devoting the great majority of hours to alumni giving. It makes YOU the Uin The University of Buffalo. There are no two ways about it--The University's future is in the hands of its alumni. 27% from * * * GENERAL CAMPAIGN COMMITTEE CHAIRMAN Charles H.

The governor presented his greetings personally in an address to students, faculty, alumni and guests gathered on campus in front of the new building. President Eisenhower's best wishes came in a telegram to Chairman Seymour H. Knox of the University Council. The President's telegram called the new Tower Residence "a splendid sign of strength and continuing progress of your community." "The vitality of our schools and institutions of higher learning," he wired, "is essential to the future well-being of the Niagara Frontier and our whole country." The governor stated that the University is setting an important example for other private institutions throughout the state in improving and expanding its facilities. "Too many of our private institutions," he said, "do not feel that they can or should expand to any appreciable extent. I hope your initiative will stimulate others to follow your ex- Stanley Wieczdrek, an Arts and Sciencesstudent, leads the dedication audience in the National Anthem.

Furnas,in his welcoming remarks, stated that "it seems prudent" that the University should have another similar residence hall ready by the autumn of 1959 or 1960. Karr Parker, chairman of the Buildings and Grounds Committee of the University Council, presented the key to the building to Mr. Knox. Carl G.

For the first time the University celebrated Homecoming with two days of festivities and celebrations. For the first time Homecomingbecame an international affair with a golf stag and dinner on Friday, October 11, at The Cherry Hill Country Club in Canada. Forty-four loyal alumni turned in golf scores and 75 enjoyed dinner, even though they had to listen to some incredible stories of the day's play. Chancellor Furnas welcomed the alumni and Chuck Burr, director of sports publicity, was master of ceremonies. The basic attendance for golf and dinner was derived from the campaign workshop held earlier in the day on campus. Campaign workers from the local area and from all parts of the country gathered together to learn the necessarymechanics of carrying out the alumni phase of the capital gifts campaign. Attendance for the entire weekend was highlighted by the many out-of towners who came back to campus to take part in Homecoming activities. Mr. William Roth, LLB'29, won the long distance prize for being farthest Los Angeles, Caliaway from home fornia. Marshall Stoll, BS(Ed)'36, from — Melrose, Massachusetts;Colonel Rosewell Rosengren.

The Chancellor's coffee in the Faculty Club in the morning preceded a marvelous dedication ceremony of the new Music Building. Frank Burkett Baird Hall. The Baird family and their guests, the General Alumni Board and alumni campaign workers enjoyed a luncheon in the new Tower Residence Hall prior to the football game. Concurrently, another "first" was being offered in Norton Union. For the first time the football players from 1894-1932 were being honored with a luncheon and introduction at the game. A personal honor went to Homer J. Knickerbocker, PhG'93, MD'9B, of Geneva, New York who was the oldest member present. Dr. Knickerbocker played on the '96 team. Joseph Manch, BA'32, MA'4O, EdD'ss, Superintendent of the Buffalo Public Schools,presided at the luncheon. Approximately 8,000 fans turned out for the 32nd Homecoming Game against Western Reserve Red Cats. The injury riddled Bulls fought gamely in going down to defeat, 13-6. The game was highlighted by the outstanding performance of Jim Allegretto, a sophomore quarterback, playing his first game. Jim won over the fans with his fine field generalship and his coolness in a very close ball game. The Faculty Club was overrun by 500 or more alumni immediately after the game. The alumni stormed the area to take part in the TUNK festivities. The Bisonhead Honor Society were TUXK hosts and were by far the most colorful and ingenious group to sponsor anything that day. By 8:00 in the evening, 250 dinner guests had arrived at The Buffalo Athletic Club and were heartily greeting old classmates and friends. Owen B. Augspurger, LLB'37, president of The Alumni Board, introduced Chancellor Fumas and Coach Dick Offenhamer. who were called on to say a few words to alumni General For the first time and before a throng of over 400 alumni and friends, an alumni king and queen were chosen at the dance. This honor was bestowed upon Homecoming Chairman "Prince" Charles Percival, BS(Bus)'43, and his wife "Queen" Elizabeth (Libby) RumseyPercival, Bus'4B. The Percivals will reign as king and queen of alumni until year's Homecoming celebration. So amid a number of "firsts" and the fading music of Tommy Rizzo. BA'4Bj and his orchestra,Homecoming 1957 bid its fond adieu. Each year Homecoming seems to get bigger and better. We hope you will return next year to make Homecoming 1958 a little bigger and a little better.

The Further Education whose competence we could criticize even though we might challenge their philosophies. We were impressed also with the deliberate attempt to maintain education as an individual experience by keeping down the size of schools. A school of six or seven hundred was considered very large. Seldom did we see one with more than 1,000pupils. While education is considered to be something which must be available to the masses, mass education does not seem to have become the order of the day. Despite the challenge of what we saw in Europe to those of us from the United States, our friends from Pakistan criticized us for being unduly modest about what we have in this country. They were sufficiently sophisticated to look beyond buildings and facilities and instead to consider the educational program and the quality of the teacher personnel. As they left this country they said that while we had all seen many fine things in Europe their mission would have been a failure were it not for the schools they visited here. The variety of educational programs, the potential for each community to develop a program relatively unique, the freedom which American school people felt and with which they exhibited their plans for improvement, the excellence of our textbooks, library, and science materials left their mark upon the Pakistani as proof of the vitality of our public schools.

Certainly this professor and his wife would be happy to ramble on for many hours about various aspects of a rather phenomenal journey. We find it hard to talk simply and briefly about the experiences because they have been so variedand so unique as contrasted with our prior experience. Certainly we are much reassured about the ease with which one can travel about the world and impressed by the very evident fact that throughout the world people are striving onward and upward. We are equally impressed with the certainty that we Americans can learn from the experience of other cultures. By no means should we assume that our educational program is unique in its excellence. Many countries with less material goods are none the less challenging the best which we have to offer youngpeople. Perhaps a final comment on the further education of a professor might well be that if this is a sample of what one may gain through a life of travel it was indeed an enticing one which has but whetted our appetite for more experience of this nature. After all, we have yet to see New Zealand, Australia, Africa, and South and Central America, to say nothing of the greater part of Asia and Eastern Europe. Thus we feel that we have much to look forward to as we anticipate further education of this nature. 23 �activities of Indians of the The Tower Residence Hall murals,depicting Confederacy, have received a tribes within the nation of the Iroquois have The artist is seen themthroughout ereat deal of praise from all those who the Hugh Laidman, a graduate of Pratt Institute, known world for his mural paintings.

'29 1903 -1958 Dr. Stockton Kimball was a 1929 graduate of The University of Buffalo School of Medicine. He had been dean of the Medical School since 1946. Under Dr. Kimball's leadership, the Medical School has steadily increased in stature, achieving an international reputation for research, teaching and service. To typify the feeling of the community and his colleagues toward Dr. Kimball, we have taken an editorial from the Buffalo Evening News and a eulogy by Dr. Marvin Bloom, MD'43, a close friend of Dr. Kimball's and an associate of his in the Medical School. Medical education both here and nasuffered a severe loss in the sudden passing of Dr. Stockton Kimdean of The Univer1946, ball, since tionally has sity of Buffalo Medical School. Dr. Kimball's contributions to the training of new doctors in this community spanned more than a quarter of a century of skilled and dedicated service. Under his brilliant leadership as dean, the Medical School attained new heights of service and renown as a center of both education and research. While the school remained his primary interest, Dr. Kimball gave liberally of his talent and energies to every worthy cause benefiting community health. Nationally, too, his counsel figured prominently in a wide array of medical organizations and undertakings. Bulletin Through it all, Dr. Kimball remained physician in his own right, gaining particular recognition as a specialist in malaria and other tropical diseases. 'That this kindly, unassuming, cultured man was but 55 at his death only deepens the sense of loss over his passing. To him is owed a great and lasting a fine community debt. Buffalo Evening News When no one else could be bothered, no problem was too small or too personal for Stockton Kimball. He would hear it out and would try to help the medical student with the personal problem, the family problem, the academic problem. Whatever the time or circumstances, a good cause could always count on his support. He liked frank and honest comment no matter how contrary to his views. The perpetration of a grudge was foreign to a nature that epitomized real kindness. One of his greatest gifts was a genuine and humble sensitivity and sensibility to real accomplishment: Scientific, artistic, musical. We recall his feeling for chamber music. Who does not remember his bustling attentiveness to the arrangement for the Medical School concerts of the Budapest Quartet? He would adjust the ventilation and lighting and see to the personal comfort of the musicians himself. Every- one else would sit in the seat and wait for someone or anyone to do the job. This attention to details was carried over to his job. As Dean, he ennobled the job. Those who knew him well in the past tell us of his tremendous personal growth and accomplishment as he guided the school and the deanship to their present dimensions. The challenge of the future absorbed and fascinated him. He was never one to ruminate about the past. He had the perspective of the whole spectrum of medical education and medical science. Within the hour he could bring to bear his insight into the preclinical problems, a broad University perspective, clinical academic progress. Almost simultaneously he could answer the phone and talk with a friend who was ill. There was no detail of activity which escaped his attention the community social agency, the national activity in medical education, the medical fraternities, the local symphony, and other musical things, inter-hospital relationships, the medical profession at large, the problems of the Park School, the blueprints of the new building, the illness of a friend or faculty member. His empathy was astonishing, more than any one Ihave known. This is one of the clues to his achievement as a person. He was incapable of saying no to anything or anyone. In consequence he tried to do far too much for his own good. Marvin Bloom, M.D. — 3 �Russians are vigorous, and well disciplined dynamic, intelligent, self-confident Russia is big, powerful, well managed — a country in a hurry 23 Days in Russia by Ewell Raymond Dr. Vice Chancellor For Research A trip to Soviet Russia is a real eyeopener for any American. Recently, I spent 23 days in Russia. I made many significant observations of Soviet cities, Soviet industry, transportation, distribution of consumer goods, national economics, the nature of the Russian people and other aspects of Soviet life. But the most startling observations I made were in the field of education. Russia is using education as an instrument of national policy far beyond any other nation in history. Education is being pushed on a massive scale in Russia with great emphasis being placed on quality, as well as on quantity. This educational drive is being purposefully directed toward the objectives of the state in the military field, in economic development and in health areas. It seems almost certain that Russia is devoting a much larger proportion of the national income (or of the national effort) to education than any other country in the world. HIGHER EDUCATION In front of Lwow Stale University is: 1. to r. Mr. Lutchenko, Pro-Rector for Business Affairs, Dr. Yurzhenko, ProRector for Research, Dr. Raymond Ewell. Higher education in Russia has several significant aspects: (1) Great emphasis on engineering, sciences and foreign languages. (2) A high degree of selection of university students through rigorous competitive examinations. (3) Eighty to ninety percent of the university students receive stipends which support them fully in the university. All three of these aspects represent important differences from educational policy in the United States and all three are important sources of strength in the Soviet educational system. At least they are sources of strength from the standpoint of the military and economic objectives of the Soviet government. Let us examine these aspects a little more closely. There are about 800 institutions of higher education in the Soviet Union, with total enrollment in 1957 of about 2,000,000 students. Out of these 800 institutions, 33 are universities, while the 767 remaining are institutes of technology, medicine, agriculture, pedagogy and foreign languages. These are definitely of university level, comparable to M.1.T., Cal Tech, Carnegie Tech, etc., and should not be confused with twoyear technicums or trade schools. It should also be noted that these are all primarily teaching institutes and not to be confused with the hundreds of research institutes in the Soviet Union. COMPETITION Out of 2,000,00 students, 1,800,000 are enrolled in the 767 institutes of technology, medicine, agriculture, pedagogy and foreign languages, compared with only 200,000 in the universities. The government allocates annually the number of freshmen to be accepted by the universities and the number in each course. This is done on the basis of the number of scientists, engineers, teachers, Alumni �etc., the government estithe nation will require 10 to 20 physicians, mates years hence. In 1957, 428,000 "spaces" were allocated and there were over 2,000,000 applications. The government is very selective. Entrance exams last more than a month and only top-grade stu- dents are accepted. Of the 428,000 "spaces" last year 7 per cent went to the universities, 40 per cent to the institutes of technology and 53 per cent to the institutes of medicine, agriculture, pedagogy and foreign languages. The student has a freedom of choice in his selection of major study but the openings are limited in each field, particularly in the humanities. The Ministry of Higher Education in connection with the Central Planning Commission decides each year how many freshmen will be assigned to various openings. Students who fail to qualify can take the exams the following year. Many go to the 2 year technicums (trade schools), directly into industry or into the army. The Russian educational system from elementary school through the university still falls short of ours in quantity, but they are putting great emphasis on quality—rigorous selection of students, high scholastic standards, plenty of welltrained, well-paid teachers. The 2,000,000 university and institute students in Russia probably exceed in intellectual capacity and creative potential the 3,000,000 university and college students in the United States. If this is a correct conclusion, it is of course due to the rigorous selection of students in higher education in Russia. The United States still far exceeds Russia in basic research and industrial research, and probably also in most areas of military research. However, the Russians are moving up fast in all areas of research and could possibly surpass us in another decade or so. PAID TO ATTEND to ninety per cent of the students who qualify receive stipends of 300 rubles per month (S3O) in, the first year, increasing gradually to 600 rubles per month in the sth year. This $30 is equal to about $100 in the United States. Those in the upper 10 per cent of their class get a 25 per cent bonus on the standard stipend. Graduate students get stipends of 800 to 1200 rubles. The 10 to 20 per cent of students who do not get aid are students whose fathers Eighty / entered the Soviet Union on October 26, 1957 by Russian airplane fly- ing from Kabul, Afghanistan to Tashkent, Uzbek S.S.R. I left Russia on November 17, 1957 by train from Lwow to Prague, Czechoslovakia. In the interim I traveled about 5,000 miles in the Soviet Union by airplane, train and automobile. I encountered no problems in entering or leaving Russia. Passport inspection and currency control were rapid and perfunctory. Baggage was never inspected at any time. I took hundreds of photographs everywhere I went in Russia with no difficulty. I was able to go everywhere I wanted to go in Russia, as far as I could tell; at least, Intourist made arrangements for me to go everywhere and visit every place I asked for. Airplane service was good but rough and ready no hostesses, no meats, no seat belts, just transportation. Trains were very clean and quite comfortable (in 2nd class, which I used entirely), but slow, averaging about 35 miles per hour. Hotels were old and Victorian, but clean and comfortable, with good beds and big goose-down comforters. Plumbing was all pre-revolutionary but it stilt worked. Food was excellent everywhere in Russia hearty and well-flavored, similar to German food. Russian wines, champagne, cognac and beer available everywhere and varied from fair to excellent also, the übiquitous vodka which the Russians drink by the tumtips accepted in Russian No blerful. hotels or restaurants. Porters in railroad stations get 5c per bag. — — — Bulletin The educational drive in Russia may be illustrated by the fact that Russia is the only country in the world where the largest and most expensive building is a university. The Science campus of Moscow University was completed in 1953 at a cost of $300,000,000. The central building of this campus is a 32 story skyscraper, the largest and costliest building in Russia. Moscow University was founded in 1755 by Lomonosov, whose statue stands before the University. 5 �women enrolled than there are in United States colleges. In Kharkov Polytechnic Institute, which is all engineering, 37 per cent are women. In the institutes of medicine, 90 per cent of the students are women. About 50 per cent of the university students are in science and the other half are in the humanities. Humanities includes law and journalism as well as the more usual humanity disciplines. The ratio of faculty to students appears to be about 1 to 10. JOB OPPORTUNITIES Two students of Moscow University.

His girl friend teaches French in high school and attends Moscow University at night. earn more than 5000 rubles per month or whose grades drop below a given level. AH higher educational curricula in Russia are five years. Students graduate from high school at 17-18 years of age and from the university or institute at 22-23 years. A "kandidat" degree (close to our PhD degree) takes three more years. A candidate for this degree is called an "aspirant". Since attrition is small during the 5 years (about 10 per cent) the graduating class each year is 15-18 per cent of the total enrollment. The students work very hard. They know their entire future depends on making a good showing in the university. If they make the grade they will be in the intellectual upper-crust at a high salary for the rest of their lives. If they fail they will never have another chance. On graduation the student has some choice in a job. The best students do graduate work. Other students are offered three jobs, of which he must choose one and stay on it for 3 years. He is then eligible to change jobs. Scientists and engineers are the highest paid. Engineers start at about $100 a month (compared to $400 in the United States). New Kandidats (PhD) start at $200 per month. FACULTIES A university is divided into 5 to 15 faculties, comparable to schools or colleges in American universities. Each faculty is divided into 2 to 10 kafedras or divisions. For example, the faculty of chemistry may have kafedras of general chemistry, analytical chemistry, or- ganic chemistry, physical chemistry, electrochemistry, petroleum chemistry, colloid chemistry, spectrochemistry, etc. The head of a faculty is of course a very important man, as is the head of a kafedra. Each kafedra has its own office and a staff of clerks and stenographers. The head of a university is a rector and there are one or more pro-rectors; for example, at Lwow University there are pro-rectors for education, research, business affairs and correspondence courses. At Lwow University there are faculties in chemistry, physics, mathematics, biology, geology, geography, history, philology, foreign languages, journalism and law. At Kiev University the faculties are the same, with the addition of radio-physics and economics. IMPRESSIONS In 23 days I visited 10 educational institutions, 8 research institutions and 9 factories. This experience in addition to information I gathered from reading and from speaking to my colleagues who have visited the Soviet Union has enabled me to form vivid impressions and some general conclusions. Russia is a more formidable adversary than most Americans realize. It is a big, powerful, well-managed nation—here to stay for the forseeable future. One important reason Russia is a formidable adversary is the character of the Russian people themselves. They are vigorous, dynamic, intelligent, selfconfident, well-disciplined people who would clearly give a very good account of themselves in any conflict. ENROLLMENT In all institutions of higher education there are about 50 per cent men and 50 per cent women. Men predominate in the institutes of technology and agriculture, women predominate in the institutes of medicine, pedagogy and foreign languages, and they are about even in the universities. However, in technology and agriculture there are many more 6 Entrance to the administrative headquarters of the U.S.S.R. Academy of Sciences, the most powerful scientific organization in the world. Alumni �Russia is a country in a hurry. They are moving up fast in the world. Most Russians are well aware of this fact and quite proud of it, too. Everyone works hard in Russia whether he (or she) is a research scientist, a factory worker, a train attendant, a waitress or a hat check girl (and no tips). People walk fast, move fast, work fast. Russia is a country with few frills or luxuries, but the people are adequately supplied with the necessities of life. This policy enables the planners to direct more of the national product into capital investment, military development and education. science and technology for all they are worth in their obvious bid for military and economic supremecy. The promotion of education, particularly in science and technology, has been a cornerstone of Soviet policy for over 30 years. The Russian educational buildup is just now developing strong momentum, and the results will probably be more and more apparent during the next decade. It is very difficult for the United to make calculations on the effect of one program or another in getting us or keeping us ahead of the Russians. Russia is moving so fast that U. S. policy must always be dynamic in order to have any assurance we will stay ahead or get ahead of the Russians. This is a fluid, dynamic situation and only fluid, dynamic thinking will enable us to keep a balance of power with Russia. States The present government in Russia seems to be quite stable and unlikely to be dislodged in the forseeable future. Economically, Russia is the best off they have ever been in history. Therefore, the people are reasonably contented with their lot and do not complain. Russians simply do not comprehend individual freedom as we understand it, and therefore, place little value on freedom, at least on our concept of freedom. In meeting the basic needs of the people for food, clothing and shelter, Russia today is about where the United States was in 1900-1910. In transportation and medical services they are relatively farther ahead, possibly about where we were in 1930-35. Russian thinking is influenced by the fact that they live in a big country with vast distances and limitless natural resources. This causes them to think "big" like Americans, rather than thinking "small" like people in most small countries. Uzbek State University in Samarkand, Uzbek S.S.R., Soviet Asia. The University is just a few blocks from the tomb of Tamerlane. Thinking and planning at all levels in Russia is characterized by "forward thinking"—not "status quo thinking". Everyone is looking to the future—s, 10, 20 years. It is said that the Communist party plans even 50 years ahead. "Forward thinking" of this magnitude is a great source of strength for the Russians, particularly in the long-term. Russia is on a strong uptrend in all aspects of the national development — education, research, industry, military power, standard of living, capacity to influence other countries, self-confidence of the people, etc. From what I saw in Russia this will probably become increasingly apparent during the next 5 to 10 years. Probably the most basic threat from Russia in the long-term lies in their educational system. Russia is playing Bulletin Children's department store (Dyetski Mir) in Moscow. 7 �Preparation for a career Preparation for a richer life Preparation for further education A Degree in Two Years The University of Buffalo is concerned with providing the opportunity of learning to all qualified members of the community. It is in keeping with this goal of the University that the Division of General and Technical Studies has set for itself the following specific objectives: to provide for students whose interests, goals and abilities indicate two years of higher education rather than the traditional four years of college; to assist students toward competency in semi-professional occupations; to help students toward personal and social development; and to provide students with facilities for exploration, guidance, and achievement. The complexities of today's society require an increase in man's total knowledge in order adequately to understand and appreciate our culture as well as to prepare for vocational pursuits. One result is an increased demand for programs of higher education from students who find that traditional four-year curriculums do not fit their wants and abilities and from students who, for financial 8 and personal reasons, find those traditional curriculums unacceptable. To provide for these students, it is necessary to organize shorter programs of study with the granting of appropriate degrees for their successful completion. Such degrees not only give the students a realization of accomplishment, but also provide the public with a standard of recognition of the programs and of students who complete them. Accordingly, students successfully completing the programs are awarded the degree of Associate in Arts (A.A.) or Associate in Ap- plied Science (A.A.S.). A number of vocations have developed which require more than a high school preparation, but less than the usual four years of college. Employers, too, are seeking a higher amount of educational attainment of prospective employees. Courses offered to meet these demands need to be available not only to those seeking a degree program, but also to those seeking further education towards vocational proficiency and personal development through completion of only part of such a program. Alumni �Dr. Milton Plesur directs a course in community affairs offered to help students recognize problems which they as future voters may be called on to help solve. Personal and social development involves preparation for citizenship, locally and nationally, understanding of self, family, and people generally, understanding of political-economic and global problems, appreciation of arts and sciences, and learning to express oneself and to appreciate the expression of others. The Division endeavors to effect this objective by making available to students in its vocationally-oriented programs general education courses in liberal arts and sciences and by offering a two-year curriculum leading to the Associate in Arts degree in which the required courses are predominantly general studies. General education, as provided in these courses, involves considering together the interrelated areas of knowledge which bear on a topic rather than considering it in a number of individual courses, each from the point of view of a different subject area field. General education usually places more weight upon the exploration, appraisal and successful application of the outcomes of learning to problems in our society than upon the informative value of mastering established conclusions in some field of knowledge. This approach is particularly well suited to programs of limited duration, less than four years, since the opportunities for specialization are necessarily at a minimum. Among students seeking higher education, there are those who have a specific desire for programs offering facilities for exploration and guidance which allow for experimentation, which give them the opportunity to see interrelationships of knowledge, and enable Bulletin them to determine their interests and abilities. In addition to others, these students include those who have not been able to make a decision regarding their educational future as well as those whose high school records are not consistent with their ability and potential, but for whom there is some indication of the worthwhileness of a higher education. Careful counseling assists materially in providing the necessary guidance for these students. Although the primary objective of the Division is to provide for students seeking terminal education within its programs, it is recognized that there exists a social responsibility to assist in enabling students to obtain the highest degree of education consonant with their interests and abilities. For most of these this still means a terminal program, but for others, the exploration and self-development which they realize may mean still further education in a four-year program. COMMUNITY INTEREST The discerned needs of the community and the citizens of the community, led to the establishment of the Division of General and Technical Studies. In the catalog of the Division the following is stated: "The programs of the Division of General and Technical Studies have been established to meet the needs of students, business and industry. The Division would be pleased to consider the suggestions of business and industry for the initiation of new programs or courses, either for day or evening instruction." Our principal constituencies are high school graduates interested in semi-professional employment, high school graduates interested in further education for their own self-development, and businesses and industries needing semi-professional employees. The Niagara Frontier and Western New York are the areas of our primary concern. Thekinds of business and industry included in our constituency are indicated by the titles of the programs offered in keeping with our objectives. The Western New York area is primarily business and industrial in character. Many of the high school graduates find their careers in technical work. However, since many of these students desire more than technical skill, other existing facilities are not adequate for them. Further, the businesses and industries in the area desire more in the people they employ than technical skill. Thus the two year program in day and evening classes, serves the constituency in a double capacity; on the one hand, it satisfies the demand of students for combined technical and general programs and, on the other hand, it satisfies the demand of business and industry for people trained in technical skills and yet who have a broad outlook on fife. THE PROGRAMS The two technical programs, Tool and Die Design and Structural Technology are designed to provide a sufficient foundation of basic science as Retail students in the Applied Science course can gain valuable practical experience by working in the local stores. �applied to engineering methods and techniques to prepare graduates to enter either the construction industry or an industry dealing with materials and machinery. Specifically, these programs lead students to such fields of endeavor as engineering drafting, tool and die designing, surveying, and assisting engineers. The first two of these occupations are on the list of critical occupations, while the latter two are on the list of occupations in short supply over most of the nation, as issued by the United States Department of Labor. Leading retailers in the community have publicly attested to the need for more people trained in their field, and the industry has continued to employ our graduates of the retailing program. Business opportunities in sales, store operation, and related fields have been an important factor in leading students to register for the Business Methods program, which generally has the largest enrollment of all the offerings of the Division. The interest in the program is inductive evidence that it is serving a need of the students, and their subsequent job placement is evidence that it is serving a need of employers. The modern secretary is a highly trained specialist. In addition to the usual secretarial skills, today's secretary must possess a rich background in social studies and human relations, business law, finance, banking, statistical procedures, and report writing. There is a constant demand from the professions, Dr. Richard N. Schmidt, department of statistics, offers some practical advice to a coed on the operation of a business machine. This course is offered in the Business Methods program which has the largest enrollment in the Division. business and government for secretaries who have acquired the additional background best provided through Univer- sity training. The demand for graduates of our Secretarial and Office Methods program far exceeds the number who graduate, and some of the graduates have attained very responsible secretarial positions in a relatively short time. The University's Placement Director states that he is speaking conservatively when he says that the demand is six times the available students. The field of Real Estate and Insurance has been of steadily increasing importance since World War 11. The need for more personnel has grown correspondingly. Recent legislation regarding Real Estate and Insurance licensing has necessitated that those desiring to be employed in these fields receive adequate training. Careers are available in such areas as estate brokerage and selling; inwhere the knowledge of pracdustry tices and procedures in land and tax regulations are of great importance; municipal and federal agencies having real to — do with real mortgage and A structural technology student. estate management; loan divisions of banks; — insurance companies for appraisal and adjustment work; savings and loan associations. A knowledge and understanding of transportation is of greater importance to business today than ever before. Every business, no matter how small, must constantly use some form of transport either in buying or selling, or both, and the form of transportation employed depends upon the needs of the individual company. It is quite important to the success of business enterprise in a competitive economy to be aware of the changing level of transportation charges, which has changed rate relationships among the carriers, and to be aware of the technological advances which make available new modes of transportation (or existing modes of transportation at considerably less cost). Positions which could be filled by graduates would include: billing clerk, expediter, dispatcher, rate assistant, and reservation clerk. After experience is gained, graduates could become traffic managersor directors of industrial transportation, terminal managers, rate analysts, salesmen, freight agents, or general freight agents with carriers. Opportunities exist too, for those skilled in advertising layout, in lettering, in display and fashion work. The Commercial Design program orients the student toward these and other similar areas.

Additional supplements will follow. Dear Alumnus: There is more—much more to a development campaign than raising money. Of primary importance is the organization of a hard core of dedicated alumni who are willing to devote a great deal of their free time to the campaign. The University of Buffalo is extremely fortunate that in nearly every case, alumni asked to handle important responsibilities in the campaign have willingly agreed. Non-alumni also play a major role in determining the success of a campaign. The University is proud that its Program of Progress has captured the imagination of many prominent citizens who, though graduates of other institutions, have contributed tirelessly of their time to the drive. Finally, the foreseeing of future needs of the University, the setting up of campaign objectives, the pulling together of various groups into a coordinated team, and the myriad of paperwork necessary is the responsibility of the University. A tremendous amount of time has been spent by many individuals to make this campaign a success. The following pages depict pictorially the highlights of the organization of this major and complicated undertaking. �UPON MANY SHOULDERS .

The alumni were privileged to hear Manly Fleischmann, LLB '33, deliver the address, "Eagle Street and Main Street, The Law School and The Greater University.." New York Metropolitan Perhaps the "most loyal alumni" award for this year should go to the New York City Metropolitan Alumni Club. Despite icy roads and the worst weather of the year, one hundred loyal, enthusiastic alumni met at the Columbia University Club on February 15. The lure for this attendance was the presence of Chancellor and Mrs. Clifford C. Furnas, and the showing of the film "Frontier U". Dr. Furnas spoke on the international aspect of education today. Mrs. Furnas expressed pleasure in meeting the New York City alumni again and extended an invitation to all to visit the campus. Dr. Richard H.

Mr. Frank then introduced the guests from Buffalo, Robert L. Beyer, BS (Bus) '32, a member of the University Council and vice president of the General Alumni Board and Gene Heidenburg, BA '49, EdM '51, assistant director of alumni relations. Mr. Beyer explained the campaign in general and Mr. Heidenburg spoke about the role of the alumni in the campaign.

The session closed with an announcement that the annual meeting and election of officers would take place in May. San Francisco The San Francisco Alumni Club met the home of Dr. and Mrs. Jason Farber on January 25. The weather was not what the Chamber of Commerce brags about because at about 4:30 P.M. on that day a driving wind and rain storm came up and lasted until the next morning. In spite of that, 33 of the anticipated 38 reservations arrived and the meeting was reported to have been a wonderful success, due in most part to the charming hosts, Ann and Jason Farber. The meeting was opened by Orlo C. Paciulli, MD '24, club president, who stated the University's objectives, the need for alumni support and the greater service the University will be to the community and to the nation.

Jason Farber, MD '33, Ralph Behling, PhG '39, BS (Phar) '40, MD '43, and Norman Snyder, DDS '43, all spoke on what the alumni owe the University. Dr. Paciulli explained the pledge cards and reported a pleasant response in the number of people who took cards to personally canvass alumni in their areas. Dr. Farber conducted a guessing game on facts about the University. Prizes were awarded to the three highest scores, Thomas Grayson, MD '43, Dr. Paciulli and Bronson M. Berghorn, BS (Phar) '53, MD '57. The next alumni party will be held on April 26 at the home of Horace O. Lanza in Piedmont, California.

The construction of additional parking areas made it necessary to alter the roadways to make parking areas more accessible and allow traffic to flow more smoothly. gates The students enter their gates free but have to pay ten cents to activate the gate when they leave. Faculty and staff have a key to activate the gate upon entering and then have a "free" exit. Dr. Claude E. Puffer, vice chancellor for business affairs, said that the University was forced into the parking gate action because the number of student cars has been increasing more rapidly than the University can afford to build parking lots. Space to hold 3,000 cars has been constructed but has not solved the problem. The other alternative is to charge the students a nominal parking fee, thus encouraging to some extent the formation of car pools or the use of public transportation. The revenue from the gates will be used to provide still better parking facilities in future years. This new map of the University shows the recent changes in the campus roadways. There are now two entrances from Bailey and two entrances from Winspear. Thenew road behind Clark Gym (20), extending from the loop to the power house (22), makes it possible to drive completely around campus without leaving the campus proper. Operation Face-Lift New Roads and Toll Gates Affect Traffic and Tempers The car's weight passing over the treadles raises the gate. The bar closes immediately, allowing one car at a time to pass through. 18 Out of Change? Well the case is not hopeless. Coin changing machines are in most buildings.

Alumni �A Degree in Two Years (cont'd from pg. 8) Although the Associate in Arts program has no vocational objective, industry, business, governmental and other public service agencies have publicly announced on many occasions its need for employees with a broad educational background. This curriculum is part of the general movement in the nation for an extension of education beyond high school leading to more alert citizenship and enriched living. Careers for graduates with a degree of Associate in Arts do not fall into specialized areas. However, opportunities are available in — the field of sales, personnel work and public relations, social work, and many areas of civil service employment on federal and state levels. In the University's evening program, the Millard Fillmore College, it is possible to take work leading to the Associate in Arts degree, and to the Associate in Applied Science degree in business methods, retailing, real estate, secretarial and office methods, and traffic and transportation. In addition, the Millard Fillmore College offers engineering programs in technology, with majors in the industrial, electrical, design and analysis, and heat power fields. DIFFERENT DISTINCTIVE The Division of General and TechniStudies differs from the other thircal teen divisions of this University by its offering of two-year degree curriculums of general education courses, and of courses designed to assist towards competency in semi-professional occupations. — In the main, the differences which exist between Buffalo's two-year degree program and some of the other two-year degree institutions are related to our offering of general education courses and our stimulation of some of our students to continue their education in a four-year program. In carrying out its objectives, the Division is differentiated from other institutions of a similar kind which are not affiliated with a University. The Division is able to draw upon the other schools of the University for specific and specialized courses. Therefore, it is able to offer a wider selection of technical skills general studies and career courses than if it had to rely on its own full-time faculty. Not only are the staff and program flexible, but the use of technical equipment and laboratories of other divisions enhances the degree to which the objective of preparation for a career is being met. Due to the fact that many of the faculty are drawn from schools in which Divisional students who transfer continue their education, the adjustment to such transfer is facilitated. The courses developedby the Division in the field of general education are distinctive, individually and collectively, in providing an excellent opportunity for the personal and social development of the students. These courses are designed to meet the needs of the students in fields other than those strictly voca- Tool and Die Design students. tional. The areas of study include citizenship (local, national and global) personal and social living, communication in thought and practice, science and mathematics, and the arts. The opportunity is available, for students desiring to do so, to obtain a limited degree of concentration within the twoyear period by electing additional courses in fields of interest. Courses offered by other divisions are available to Divisional students as electives. The programs leading to the A.A.S. degree include other fields of knowledge in addition to applied study. These include the social sciences, science and mathematics, and the humanities. Even if such a distribution were not mandated by the Board of Regents of the State of New York, the Division would continue to require it. Other distinctive features of the twoyear program include an orientation program conducted for all new day students and connected with the written communication course; two full-time counselors for students, and a form of student government which is quite distinctive, being characterized by a wide and active student participation. Thus, the University, through this Division provides two-year programs of education for students having three specific interests—preparation for a career, preparation for a richer life, preparation for further education. Commercial Design courses equip students desiring to become proficient in advertising layout, lettering, display and fashion art work.

Alumni in their employ to make their contributions doubly effective by means of a MATCHING GIFT ARRANGEMENT. In this time of inflation, getting twice as much for your dollar is a pretty hard struggle. That's why the Concept of the Corporate Alumnus is so effective. At a meeting of the American Alumni Council in 1955, members established the fact that the individual alumnus is responsible for deciding the ultimate benefits of his education to himself as well as to his organization and therefore he should decide what share of support for his college and university they should both bear. This concept was based on the idea that in our economy, the costs of education should, desirably, be paid by the individual who receives the benefits from it. Of course, all of us know that the individual alumnus, in actuality, bears a very little part of the total costs of his education. Companies have realized that they have shared in the wealth of education by receiving the benefits of the alumnus who has a degree. Thus, they have become more and more willing to lend their support to institutions of higher learning. Since the program began three years ago, acceptance has been so widespread that numerous businesses and industries throughout the country have instituted the matching gifts program. Besides doubling the gifts of employee-alumni and bringing new money from business and industry, the program has resulted in a larger percentage of employee-alumni supporting their alma mater. Colleges and universities, including The University of Buffalo need these monies for research, competent teaching and new plans for instruction. The American businessman has seen his responsibility and is waiting for his employees to see theirs. Why not let your dollar make another by giving through the matching gift program!

And a few months before that, I watched Dick Offenhamer's Bulls finish a winning season on the bleak, snowy Temple University gridiron in Philadelphia. I mention these sports events because all of us remember glamorous athletic contests as high points in our undergraduate years. Old grads at reunions always recall "the year we beat Lehigh" or "that tussle with State." I myself remember running a few races for my Alma Mater "way back when." all sport. I can hear some ofyou grumbling inwardly in recollection of academic pain in battles with professors while obtaining your sheepskins. I need not tell you former students that college life is not Well, we, of the faculty, are glad that you remember the price in pain you paid for those diplomas. That degree you hold means a lot more because of its cost in sweat, tears and midnight oil. "And don't forget," I hear you saying, "college costs a lot of dough, too!" I agree. We shall waste no time crying over the high cost of college. We have some very tough financial problems, and we are doing our best to lick them. The key is not just "know how" but "know whom." We are learning to know whom we can count on when we need help. This issue of the Alumni Bulletin is dedicated TO WHOM IT HAS BEEN THE CONCERN that the cause of higher education should not suffer for lack of adequate support. All of us students, faculty and citizens of the community are deeply grateful to those of you who have made fine contributions to The University of Buffalo. And, regardless of the size of financial aid, we appreciate the fact that for your whole life, the whole life of the University is a matter of great concern. — — Sincerely Yours, 2 Alumni �A MESSAGE From the General Chairman of the Fund Committee: To the Alumni: It is with a great deal of pride that I share with you the 1957 record of more Donors and Contributions than ever before. Recent scientific headlines have brought about national re-appraisement of American educational values, opportunitiesand needs. With this national evaluation, more and more Alumni have joined in a united reawakenment effort to expand our own Niagara Frontier and to meet the day to day challenge to the University. This year let's make the Loyalty Fund still stronger by increasing the number of Donors, so that more Leadership Awards can be made to deserving students. Yours for more Donors in '58.

The announcementwas made by Chancellor Clifford C. Furnas in more than 11,000 letters mailed to students and their parents. Freshmen and sophmores entering in the fall will pay $40 more per semester, an increase from $350 to $390 per utility and prestige of the University", he said. It was stated the increase in tuition will not permit an across-the-board faculty pay increase but will give more leeway for merit increases. The increase was approved by the General Administration Committee of the University Council on March 8. semester. Juniors, seniors, graduate and law students will pay an additional $90 per semester, an increase from $350 to $440. Rates for dental students will increase from $400 to $490 and medical students will be assessed $540 (now $475). Studentsin Millard Fillmore College (night school) will pay $24.50 per credit hour per semester for first and second year courses, and $27.50 per credit hour for all other courses in the college. The charge per credit hour for tutorial students will be $35, an increase of $6 over the present charge. The tuition rates are higher for upper classmen than for freshmenand sophomores because the expense of instruction is less during the first two years and increases as a student moves into higher levels. Dr. Furnas' letter stated: "The University has always done its utmost to offer its students distinguished educational opportunities and at the same time keep its tuition charges just as low as possible. But it is well known, grave problems face American colleges and universities because the inflation that has occurcd means that the costs have risen faster than income and resources. The total costs of the University's operation are never fully covered by tuition. Even at the new rates, student charges still cover less than 70% of the budget of the University." Dr. Furnas pointed out that comparable universities and colleges also have been forced to raise tuition fees. As examples he listed Rochester,Colgate, Cornell and others which will charge tuition feesfrom $1,000 to $1,200 this fall. In his letter, Dr. Furnas mentioned the thousands of volunteer workers striving to raise nearly $10,000,000 to improve and expand facilities and endowment for support of instruction. "This will contribute greatly to the Bulletin Wildroot Grant for Graduate Loan Fund The University has received a graduate loan fund, established by the Wildroot Foundation of Buffalo in honor of Welles V. Moot, former regent of New York State and original donor to the foundation. An initial contribution of $10,000 has been made and the Foundation will continue annual grants until a selfsustaining, revolving fund of $100,000 has been established. The fund, known as "The Welles V. Moot Graduate Loan Fund", was presented to Chancellor Furnas by Mr. Moot and his two sons, Richard E. and Welles V. Moot, Jr. "This will be in recognition of Mr. Moot's contribution to the field of education and to demonstrate his belief that young men and women can themselves obtain and pay the true cost of their own higher education." The Fund will provide up to $2,500 for any qualified student to meet the cost of his or her graduate education. No security of collateral will be required other than the written obligation of each student to repay the loan. Initially, preference will be given to full-time graduates in the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences,including the Schools of Nursing, Business Administration,Education and SocialWork. If funds are available, eligibility will be extended to full time students in the Schools of Law, Medicine and . Dentistry. Accepting the Fund, Dr. Furnas said: "We are most grateful to the Wildroot Foundation We are particularly pleased that the Fund will stand in honor of Mr. Moot, who has had a long and distinguished career devoted to the support of and improvement of education in all its phases. "We at the University are sincerely proud to play a role in recognizing him as an outstanding educator and citizen." U.B.

Bullock, left, shows one of the six volumes of Codex Aureus to Dr. Albert P. Sy and CharlesD. Abbott. Library Acquires Rare Facsimile A rare facsimile edition of the Codex Aureus, a religious manuscript now in the Bavarian State Library in Munich, Germany, has been presented to the University's Lockwood Memorial Li- brary. The donor. Charles W. Bullock, PhG *06, MS(Phar)?o7, AC'O9, Phar D*lo, gave the six-volume work to Charles D. Abbott, director of University libraries. This edition of the Codex or "Golden Code"*was reprinted with German notes in 1925. The editor was Dr. Georg Leidinger and the publisher, Hugo Schmidt. The Latin manuscript was written in 1870 under the sponsorship of Kaiser Karl 11. The text includes the writings of the four evangelists, Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John, in the Vulgate Latin translated by St. Jerome. The writers were two monks,Brothers Beringar and Liuthard. It is believed the Codex was written and painted in the Benedictine Monastery at Corbie near Amiens,France. The Codex is one of the greatest examples of the high peak to which artistic ornamentation of manuscripts rose in this period. The German notes were translated for Dr. Bullock by Albert P. Sy, PhD"OB. professor emeritus of chemistry. 24 A new two-year University College will open its doors for the first time in the fall of 1958 and will be in full operation in the fall of "59. The College has been approved in principle by the other divisions of the University and has received approval of the University Council to proceed with the organization. The new division will embrace the first two undergraduate years of all divisions. Under the College, all students will enter one division instead of the eight now existing. There they will take all their basic courses and graduate or move on to the upper divisions and professional schools if they are qualified. Dr. Furnas stated in the campus newspaper, '"The Spectrum", that he has two main reasons for being in favor of a two-year University College: 1. It generally takes about two years for a student to find his real interest and ability. At present it is difficult to change from one program to another; thus, the new plan will give more flexibility in advisement and program plan- ning. 2. By consolidating work, we will b:1 able to give groupsindividual attention such as special honor classes and special divisional training. For example, science could be taught as both a cultural and dual registration for the incoming freshthat matters of advisement and transfer can be immediately put into effect." men so Dr. Ertell, New Dean Dr. Merton Ertell, assistant vice chancellor for educational affairs, has been appointed dean of the new University College. The appointment was made by an executive committee of deans and faculty members. The main task facing Dr. Ertell and the executive committee is to set policy and adjust entrance requirements. Bylaws will be drafted by a subcommittee headed by Charles Fogel, BA '35, MA '38, associate professor of engineering. A native of Buffalo, Dr. Ertell is a graduate of South Park High School. He received his bachelor of science in Business Administration from The University of Buffalo in 1938 and his master's degree in 1949. Dr. Ertell received his PhD degree in labor economics and industrial relations from the University of Chicago. He has been a member of the University faculty since 1946, teaching economics,statistics and industrial relations. major subject. University officials hope to set up enough sections in such basic courses as English composition, American and European history and the sciences,to meet various levels of training and competence. Separate courses are considered for the specialists and nonspecialists. The two-year College will offer an associate degree after successfulcompletion of the requirements of the twoyear program. Dual registration will take place at the University next fall. Dr. Furnas stated that there will be no fundamental reorganization of curriculum for the academic year beginning in September because students are now being admitted to the University under existing procedures, which admit them into respective undergraduate divisions. '"On the other handI', he said, "we can anticipate working out a system of Merton Ertell. BS(Bus)"38, MBA'49 Alumni �Evening News Buffalo beloved teacher indefatigable scholar renowned historian — The University's highest honor the Chancellor's Medal—has been awarded to Dr. Julius W. Pratt, "beloved teacher, indefatigable scholar, renowned historian, outstanding servant of the community and a patriotic American who has dignified Buffalo in the eyes of the world." Dr. Pratt is the Samuel P. Capcn professor of American History, dean emeritus of the GraduateSchoolof Arts and Sciences and one of only four members of the University faculty ever awarded the title of "distinguished professor". The Chancellor's Medal was established in the will of Charles P. Norton, sixth chancellor of the University. It is awarded annually, on George Washington's birthday, to an outstanding citizen who personifies civic patriotism and public service. Chancellor Clifford C. Furnas, in making the presentation to Dr. Pratt, declared: "In a year in which every American has become particularly aware of the position of his country in international and even interplanetary affairs, it is especially appropriate that we honor a distinguished American historian who has devotedhis life to the enlightenment of his fellow countrymen in the field of foreign policy. "This year we have chosen a scholar of world renown who came to The University of Buffalo in 1926 as chairman of the Department of History and Government and who has contributed greatly to the development of this field of study, to the education of thousands of students and to the inspiration of the citizens of the Buffalo community." Dr. Pratt, a native of Piedmont, South Dakota, received his bachelor's degree from Davidson College in 1908,and his doctor of philosophy degree from the University of Chicago in 1924. He first taught English at the Georgia Schoolof Technology and then at North Carolina State College. Bulletin Dr. Julius W. Pratt accepts the Chancellor'sMedal from Dr. Furnas. Chancellor's Medal to Dr. Julius Pratt Dr. Furnas continued his biographical information on Dr. Pratt by pointing out that, "one of his early teaching assignments was at the U. S. Naval Academy at Annapolis. Fortunate were the midshipmen who received their basic instruction in American History and foreign affairs from this brilliant and witty young professor. After two years at Rutgers University he came to The University of Buffalo and has taught here continuously ever since." "In 1936, Dr. Pratt was Albert Shaw lecturer in American Diplomatic History at Johns Hopkins University and in 1956 he spent a semester as a Fulbright professor at the Ludwig Maximilian University in Munich, Germany. "To the nation at large and to the world of scholarship he has given a long list of books and articles on American History and foreign affairs, the most recent being his text, 'A History of United States Foreign Policy." Three of Dr. Pratt's other significant books are: "Expansionists of 1812", "Expansionists of 1898" and "America's Colonial Experiment". "We could devote many words to the listing of previous honors heaped upon this great Buffalonian, but those of us who know him best will testify that he is an extremely modest and self effacing person who shrinks from accolades of praise. "However, this devoted teacher has never hesitated to set forth fearlessly and with enthusiasm the great tenets of Americanism to guide young students in universities and senior statesmen in centers of government." Dr. Pratt will leave the University at the end of the academic year to accept an appointment with the John Hay Whitney Foundation under the Whitney Visiting ProfessorsProgram. Dr. Pratt will spend next year at Hood College in Frederick, Maryland. 25 �Alumnae The Alumnae Association has announced that the Annual Spring Fashion Showwill this year become the Annual Fall Fashion Show to be held on September 9, in the Tower Residence Hall on campus.

Reunion Time - June Weekend, June 7 - 8 Bulletin 27 �Football Schedule Includes Harvard, Columbia, Lehigh It's another nine-game schedule for The University of Buffalo Football Bulls in 1958. The addition of Baldwin-Wallace on Saturday, October 18 at RotaryField completed the schedule and gave us an ideal day for Homecoming. The big news is the appearance of the two "Ivy League" teams on the schedule, Harvard and Columbia. The home gamefeaturewill be the Columbia game at Civic Stadium on October 25. The Columbia Lions, rebuilding under famed coach Duff Donelli, remain one of the East's most respected names in football. Although the Lion's have had rather poor seasons the past few years, they are definitely on the upswing and should be a power in the Ivy League within a short time. On the road the Bulls will really be faced with some tough foes. Harvard, another famous name in gridiron history, will provide the Bulls with their opener at Cambridge on September 27. Also away from home are three of the teams to defeat the Bulls last year, Cortland State, Western Reserve, and Lehigh. Lehigh was regarded as one of the nation's top teams in 1957. The engineers lost only to 13th ranked V.M.I. Sports Boosters to Sell Season Tickets The University of Buffalo Sport Boosters have accepted the responsibilit for the sale of season tickets for th Bulls' 1958 "at home" football schedule Dr. JamesJ.

"The 1958 football schedule is the most attractive we have ever had," stated Dr. Ailinger, "and the Boosters are happy to be able to participate in so important a facet of the program as the sale of season tickets." Dr. Ailinger stated the $10.00cost of the season ticket makes its purchase a tremendous bargain.

The man who is ruled by this impulse we call an isolationist, and when we try to appraise what we are and where we are going he is one of the people we need to examine. Who is he, and just how did he get that way! An excellent study is now available in a book called The Isolationist Impulse, written by Selig Adler, professor of history at The University of Buffalo. Mr. Adler begins his inquiry by pointing out that it is necessary first of all to define isolationism correctly. American isolationism, he remarks, "has never meant total social, cultural and economic and self-sufficiency." Few Americans have ever believed in that, and the whole course of American history is against it. We have always exchanged both goods and ideas with the rest of the world, and we have never dreamed to Dr. Selig Adler's new book "The Isolationist Impulse" was reviewed in the February 1958 issue of "American Heritage", the Magazine of History. The book was reviewed by editor Bruce Catton in his feature column, "Reading, Writing and History." Mr. Catton is the author of many well known books of history including his Pulitzer Prize winning novel, "A Stillness at Appomatox". Dr. Adler is a 1931 summa cum laude graduate of The University of Buffalo's College of Arts and Sciences. He has Professor of History at the University since 1941. He received his MA and PhD degrees from the University been of Illinois. Dr. Adler will journey to Cornell University for the second semester of next year as a Visiting Professor of History, teaching the courses that have been taught by Dr. Dexter Perkins, John Senior Professor of American Civilization at Cornell, who will be on leave. — Bulletin 3 �of the ironwalled retreat into a hermit's life similar to that of the Japan of the shoguns. American isolationism is simply a determination to stay out of for- eign wars, coupled with an unwavering refusal to enter into alliances; a belief that we must always go it alone. Isolationists, says Mr. Adler, "cling tenaciously to faith in the unchangeability of our changing world." This, to be sure, is where the shoe pinches, because the world is changing very radically, and some of the change comes from what we ourselves do. Yet the drive to go it alone is strong and it has deep roots in the American past, and Mr. Adler is concerned with getting these roots out and seeing what they amount to. This inquiry leads him into a study of American history since, roughly, the time of the First World War. We got into a war which we had supposed we could stay out of, we oversold ourselves (once we got in) on what was going to be accomplished, and at the end it seemed that all of our fine hopes had been blighted. It was precisely then that the isolationist impulse came to full flower, and it proved an extremely hardy growth; bruised and trodden on though it has been of late, it is a long way from being dead. Where did it get its strength? Step by step, Mr. Adler traces it. Woodrow Wilson ran into many difficulties, some of them self-created, when he came back from Paris with the draft Treaty of Versailles and the concept of a League of Nations. The liberals, previously among his strong supporters, fell away from him. The pro-league arguments were cast in an unreal, idealistic form, instead of being based on the obvious point that it was to our material interest to set up machinery that would curb aggression and war; and in 1919 America had grown very disillusioned about idealism. The election of 1920 was tragically misinterpreted; everyone assumed that it was a referendum on the treaty and on the league, when in fact (as Mr. Adler insists) it was the result of the interaction of many very 2 complex forces, including simple warweariness. Not for years thereafter would any political party be willing to go to the people with an internationalist program. Then came the Harding Administration, in which, as Mr. Adler says, we tried to retain die benefits of isolationism and still reap the benefits of a privileged position in the world's market places. Washington washed its hands of responsibility for world economic conditions just when big business was getting into world economic affairs up to both elbows. Our statesmen and industrialists, imagining themselves perfectly in tune with each other, went in diametrically opposite directions. The world economic depression which, at least in part, grew out of this greatly intensified the desire for isolation; and, as Mr. Adler says, '"the isolationism of the 1930's was much more profound than the rather superficial detachment of the preceding decade." Dabbling in European affairs, apparently, had not only cost us our ideals but a great deal of money as well. We withdrew furdier into ourselves; at which moment came a new wave of aggressions, overseas, which tended to confirm our deep suspicions that international politics was no game for us. The New Deal did not stem die tide. On the contrary, the high-water mark of isolationism came in the neutrality legislation which bloomed between 1935 and 1937. Ironically, this legislation, Mr. Adler believes, made war all the more likely, for it helped persuade the megalomaniac Axis leaders that "the United States would stand by as they tore up the maps of Europe and Asia." Out of all diis came, at last, die Second World War, which reversed the trend. It was not followed by a general retreat of the liberals, as had been the case in 1919, and it clearly destroyed the isolationist argument that if we fought against Fascism we would destroy the very values we were trying to save. Also, on a purely material plane, it restored the pulsing prosperity which had hern missing for more than — — a decade. We no longer wanted to get back to a happier prewar age, because the prewar age, this time, did not look worth regaining. There was an aftermath, to be sure, and the postwar witch hunts can be seen as a final flare-up of the isolationist mood, but the great drive was over. Over for keeps? Mr. Adler is not entirely certain. We have not yet found, he sagely remarks, an adequate substitute for isolationism. The collective security ideal is still in the blueprint stage, the international situation is {to say the least) unpromising, and there could still be a revival of the insular tradition. We have always been torn between a desire to use our power to stabilize the world and an urge to remain aloof. At the moment the internationalists seem to have won; but their victory, Mr. Adler warns, was "a decision rather than a knockout." The isolationists may yet demand a rematch; meanwhile, "the only certain thing about the future is — uncertainty." Dr. Capen's Biography A noteworthy publication origat the University in the past year is the biography of the late Chancellor Samuel Paul Capen written by Dean Emeritus Julian Park. The biography is published in The University of Buffalo Studies, Volume 24, Number 1, October inating 1957. It is a count of warm and complete acour great Chancellor. Dr. Park appropriately makes use of Dr. Capen's close friends and colleagues to present a vivid and understanding picture of, as Dr. Park stated, "such a complicated man as Samuel P. Capen." Anyone who ever knew Dr. Capen or heard the wonderful things about him will want this biography in his library. The biography is available at the University Bookstore, Norton Union, for fifty cents. Alumni �Christopher Baldy, LLB'10, Capen Award Winner Christopher Baldy, LLB'IO The Samuel P. Capen Alumni Award for 1958 was presented to Christopher Baldy, LLB'IO, at the Annual General Alumni Board Dinner held at the Buffalo Athletic Club on June 7. The citation was read by outgoing president of the G.A.8., Owen B. Augspurger, Jr., LLB'37, and presented to Mr. Baldy by incoming president Harry G. LaForge, PhG'23, MD'34. The citation read, in part, as follows: This occasion marks the ninth presentation of The Samuel Paul Capen Award. Our honored alumnus was graduated from the School of Law in 1910 and in the following year began a continuous and successful career with a distinguished Buffalo law firm. In 1921 he was admitted to partnership in the establishment, and he has to this day made the practice of law his principal interest in an abundant life. His untiring devotion and effective service to The University and its Alumni Association was fittingly recognized by his election to the Council of the University in 1950. Since 1951 he has very ably served as Secretary of the Council and as a member of the Committee on General Administration. One of the arduous tasks that he performed for the University was assisting the Committee which revised the Charter of the University. This important document has recently been approved by the Board of Regents of the State of New York. In addition, he helped in the revision of the Ordinances of the University, and this draft has been adopted by the Council. Another task of legal interpretation and editing which he performed was the revision of the Constitutions of the Dental, Medical and Pharmacy Participating Funds. As a member of the Executive Committee of the Chancellor's Advisory Committee on Bequests and Endowments he has assisted in counseling friends of the University in making fitting remembrances. His own class Law 1910 has set a fine example in 100% participation in bequests to their Alma Mater. His fellow barristers demonstrated their high regard for this outstanding Buffalonian by choosing him as President of the Marshall Club of Lawyers in 1920 and as President of the Erie County Bar Association in 1942. Other honors heaped upon him by his profession include membership on the Committee on Character and Fitness of Applicants for Admission to the Bar in the Eighth Judicial District of the State of New York and membership on the Committees for Legal Education of the New York State Bar Association and for Admission to the Bar. By request of the Council of the City of Buffalo he served on the Committee on Capital Expenditures of the Council. One of the most impressive of a long series of honors bestowed upon our distinguished alumnus was received from The Right Reverend Lauriston L. Scaife, Bishop of the Diocese of Western New York, the Bishop's Cross as Church Warden of the Year. — — — GAB Elects Dr. Harry G. LaForge, President The General Alumni Board elected Harry G.

Council advisors appointed by President LaForge are: Willis G. Hickman, LLB'I4; Morley C. Townsend, Edß'39. LLB'4S; Walter S. Walls, MD'3l. Dr. LaForge was as active as a student as he has been as an alumnus. While in Medical School he was president of his Sophomore, Junior and Senior Classes and served as a member of the Student Council. He is an Associate Professor of Obstetrics and Gynecology at the Medical School, attending obstetrician and gynecologist at the Buffalo General Hospital and attending obstetrician at the Childrens Hospital. Dr. LaForge is a Diplomate of the National Board of Medical Examiners and Fellow of the American College of Surgeons and the American College of Obstetrics and Gynecology.

Bulletin 5 �Alumni Weekend alumni college, reunions, awards, carousel, ponies piggy back ... pony rides... Alumni Weekend, June 7 and 8, was the biggest and best yet, incorporating some new attempts to attract alumni back to the campus. The most successful of the ideas was the first effort of the "Alumni College." Dr. Raymond Ewell, vice chancellor for research, and Dr. Oscar Silverman,chairman of the Department of English, were the first, of what is hoped to be, a long list of Alumni College lecturers. On the eleventh floor of the Tower Residence Hall, over 100 alumni and guests gathered to hear Dr. Ewell speak on "Education and the World Struggle" and Dr. Silverman speak on "Great Books." Robert Berner, BS (Bus) '39, MBA'4B, dean of Millard Fillmore College, introduced the speakers. At twelve noon the senior class was inducted into the University Alumni Association. After the induction the graduates were invited to attend the barbecue and TUNK east of the Tower. The children again dominated the scene this year and were thoroughly at ease riding the ponies, fire engine and carousel. During the afternoon celebration Alumni Awards were presented to those who diligently worked on the Campaign. Charles H. Diefendorf, general campaign chairman, and Robert R. Rich, BS(Bus)'3s, chairman of the alumni phase of the campaign, were awarded Alumni Medals of Honor. It is estimated that 800 attended the daytime activities. Harold H. Johnson, BS(Bus)'43, vice president of the General Alumni Board, was general chairman for the weekend. John J. Starr, Arts'so, was chairman of Alumni Day. His committee consisted of Muriel Maranville Marshall, BS(Bus)'51; Edward A. Dunlop, BA '47, MD'54; Edmund J. Lankes, Bus '50; and Charles Percival, Jr., BS(Bus) '47. The General Alumni Board Dinner was held at the Buffalo Athletic Club in the evening. Christopher Baldy, LLB'IO, was the recipient of the Dr. Samuel Capen Award at the dinner. The Alumnae Dance followed the dinner at the Buffalo Athletic Club. For the first time since the inception of outdoor commencement in 1953, the weather failed to maintain its usual favorable discipline. The 1958 Commencement will go on record as the wettest in U. B.s history. Chancellor Furnas managed only two minutes of his Commencement address, "The Universatality of the American University." In his address he stated that "every American should have the opportunity for as lengthy and intensive an education as his abilities permit." The photos on these pages represent only a fraction of the total activities that occurred on June 7 and 8. a few minutes to relax and refuel Chancellor Furnas awards alumni medal to Edward G.

Templeton, LLB'O9, who pioneered the first MUD on the last Saturday in April 1922, never dreamed that his brainchild would grow to be the extravanganza that 1958 proved to be. In its early years, MUD consisted of a street parade in downtown Buffalo with only freshmen participating. They dressed up in gay costumes and clowned in the streets. The freshmen were accompanied by mounted police and proceeded from Shelton Square up Main Street. Following the parade the students assembled in the old Teck Theatre where convocation was held and awards were given out. As enrollment increased, convocation was moved to HutchinsonCentral High School. Years later all classes joined in the parade and the construction of floats Photos by Paul Henry �ay Parade Clings to Theme THE WINNER: Faith K.

The queen and her attendants, chosen by the students, rode on a special float in the parade. Since World War 11, the parade began in downtown Buffalo and moved to the campus where the judge's stand was located. The parade and the floats have a theme and the floats are judged in relation to the theme. The parade is followed by a lunchconvocation. Awards for outling achievements in all phases of ersity life are given out on MovingDay. The climax of the day is the MUD dance where the winners of the float contest are announced. MUD signifies moving up one step on the academic ladder; freshmen to sophomores, sophomores to juniors, and juniors to seniors. The celebration takes place at least two to three weeks before final exams, a real show of optimism on behalf of the students.

Coach Offenhamer hopes they are equally blessed with victories in the fall when the Bulls begin one of their toughest schedules in U. B. football history-. Offenhamer, while reasonably optimistic that the Bulls will be an improved team over 1957 when they won five and lost four, has this optimism tempered by the knowledge that the percentage of improvement is unlikely to be in proportion to the increased strength of the schedule. The Bulls' coaching staff will build from a nucleus of 20 returning lettermen. While the number of returnees constitutes an assurance of some measure of depth on the squad, there is at least one position at which U. B. figures to be substantially weaker than a year ago. The tackle positions, which in the quick opening Split T. offense are all important, will lose two outstanding operators through graduation. Line Coach Karl Kluckhohn is faced with the unhappy prospect of replacing Little Ail-American Fran Woidzik who has signed to play professional football with Hamilton of the Canadian Big Four and Woidzik's running mate, League Gordon DeMasi. Juniors Bernie Fagan and George Delaney are the only remaining tackles with varsity experience. Guard Sam Sanders was shifted to tackle during spring practice and acquitted himself well. Junior John Dempsey and sophomore Ray Skaine are other candidates who showed promise during the — — spring. Lettermen Chuck Tirone, Joe O'Grady, Stan Kowalski and Fran Mazurkiewicz will return at guard. Addi- tionally, sophomores Phil Bamford and Joe Shifflet, of last year's undefeated freshman team, will add plenty of strength to that position. Captain Remo Damiani will be graduated in June, nonetheless, the Bulls should experience no great difficulty at center this coming year. Senior cocaptain Louis Reale who alternated at center and fullback in 1957, will be 16 backed by an improved Ray Paolini and sophomores Chuck Scott and Jim Beckerich. Mike Rhodes, newly appointed end coach, will have the veteran services of senior co-captain Nick Bottini and junior letterman Dave Brogan and Bob Adams as well as the newly reinstated Carley Keats. 65" sophomore James Hurley and junior Nate Bliss shifted from guard, are also bound to help the flankers. At quarterback, a decided weakness in 1957, things began to take shape dur- ing the spring. Junior Jim Allegretto has a year of invaluable experience under his belt in all phases of the Split T. attack. Behind him, the Bulls have two of the Niagara Frontier's All-Time High School Greats in sophomores Gordon Bukaty of Lackawranna and Joe Oliveri of North Tonawanda. The halfback situation apparently is the club's strong point. Seniors Kenneth Born and Jim Keats injured most of last year are in top shape once again as is junior Willie Evans who demonstrated excellent running form on many occasions in 1957. Lettermen Bob Muscarella and squad member Grapes are pushing hard for the Jim jobs, as are extremely fast sophomores George Maue, Paul Szymendera and John O'Connor. Dick Guild, a transfer from Ohio University figures to be a lot of help too. Bill Brogan, whom Offenhamer feels could make any team in the country, heads up the fullback brigade. His loss through injury in 1957 was a decimating factor in at least three games. Besides, Brogan- Offenhamer can call on Reale who was the Bull's leading ground gainer at fullback two years ago, and Born who has matured to a very strong 195-pounds. Sophomores Grover Freeland and Vahan Khanzadian are also very much in the picture. Spring practice wound up with the traditional Blue-White game which ended in an 8-8 tie. Both teams showed a lot of spirit and proved to Coach Offenhamer that they will not be easy prey for the opposition come next fall. — — Mike Rhodes, New Assistant Grid Coach Mike Rhodes, Edß'so, a 35 year old native of Tonawanda and an outstanding end for Frank Clair's 1948-49 U.B. gridiron eleven has accepted an assistant coaching position under head football coach Dick Offenhamer. Mike comes directly from a very successful coaching job at St. Catherine High School in Detroit. His 1955 team performed so well in the tough Detroit schoolboy league that Rhodes was named Coach of the Year. His 1957 team was the undefeated champion of the Catholic League. Rhodes is expected to take over the end coaching job while Fred Dunlap, who has been handling the ends, will become backfield coach. Karl Kluckhohn is the line coach. This will be Mike's second hitch at U.B. After graduation in 1950, he worked here as a graduate assistant, and coached the line and the ends. Mike is married and the father of three children.

Big Thunder's oblong blue body is the shape of the hogan or house symbol and represents a turquoise land of summer sunshine. On it are twelve bars of rain. The circle in the center is a lake or never-failing spring of pure water. The feet are black cloud or mist symbols. The tail feathers have the colors of the four directions and of brown earth and are edged by rainbow rope. Beneath the wings are bags of rain and thunder with crooked lightning and turkey tassels, indicating rain. The black arrow points are of male lightning. The figure wears a combination of the weasel (male) and tall-feather (female) headdresses, indicating combined power of the two branches of the chant. Bats, sometimes on fields of yellow pollen, guard the eastern opening. Editor Alumni �The Department of Anthropology and Linguistics ... a study of man and language Bulletin 1 �About three yearsago the machinery was set in motion at The University of Buffalo. Three gentlemen who, at the time, were on the faculty of different inobject of stitutions, were the primary attention. These men, Dr. Henry Lee Smith, Dr. George L. Trager and Dr. Raymond L. Birdwhistell were brought together to form the nucleus of a productive and dynamic unit—the Department of Anthropology and Linguistics. Sincethe formationof this department, the question has been brought up time and time again—what is the study of anthropology and linguistics and howare they related? Anthropology is the scientific study of man in his social and cultural setting. The anthropologist is interested in all facetsof human life, all over the world. Sinceman's life is uniquely tied up with his language, the separation of anthropology and linguistics is impossible. STRUCTURE OF LANGUAGE There are several branches of anthropology, and linguistics is generally considered to be one of them. Linguistics is primarily concerned with the structure of language. The linguist attempts to analyze the way a language works, in terms of how it is used. He is not trying to learn or teach a great number of languages—although some of his discoveries have been applied to the teaching of foreign languages. A person who can speak several languages is a polyglot, not a linguist. Dialects of a particular language, geographically or socially, are of interest to a linguist. Almost all people speak differently to a child, to an elder or a teacher. The linguist may attempt to record these differencesas being part of a particular cultural pattern. The interrelations of languages or language familiesare a fascinating part of his work. It is possible, for example, to surmise much of the historical movement oflarge groups of peoples by noting how closely their languages are related. BEHAVIOR OF MAN Cultural and social anthropologists concern themselves with the cultural and social institutions of different peoples. In many senses they are interested in the behavior of man. The various religious practices of the world, birth, death and marriage as they occur in differentplaces, This fish spear is used by the Kutenia Indians of interior British Columbia. 2 are all part of the study. How do th< Truk people get their food? What is th< economic function of children in Ghana.' Finally, are these elements or institutions fairly stable,or are they in the process of rapid change—and how? Cultural anthropologists probed Japanese culture during World War II in an attempt to find out more about Japanese "character," and how it might be best to deal with them. In fact, their recommendations led to the preservation of the Emperor at the head of the state rather than to execute him and chance the quite predictable riots. CULTURE OF PEOPLE An ethnologist studies the culture of living peoples. He may spend several months or even yearsliving in New Zealand or amongthe Laplanders, gathering eye-witness records of any particular culture. Many problems arise in doing this work. For instance,the ability to find out "what is going on" in terms of the foreign culture is often terribly difficult. Most Americans tend to see counterparts of American habits and practices. And often the ethnologist will not be told about certain religious practices, but can only observe at adistance. Men are often told about the maie role in a culture, but can only infer some version from sifted stories, the facts about their female counterparts. MAN'S PAST Scholars who deal with man's past are called archeologists. They are dependent on surviving material of human activities for their information. From their probing in neolithic caves, the pyramids, or remains of centuries-old pueblos, they attempt to describe the culture of a given people within a certain period of time. From this they can often determine changes which occurred in subsequent time periods, e.g., parts of the eastern Mediterranean area. With new techniques for dating materials and fossils, archeological remains can now be dated much more accurately. The work now proceeding on the Dead Sea Scrolls involves much in the way of archeological work. PHYSICAL ANTHROPOLOGY A branch of anthropology which differsconsiderably from the others is physical anthropology. This field overlaps greatly with biology. From early work mainly in the measurement and classification of parts of the human anatomy, it is now progressing to much more interesting and fruitful areas. The modern Alumni �Movieola, Dr.Raymond L.

Do all peoples adapt to high altitudes? What may determine such differencesif they exist? If a majority of the people in a culture arerelatively large or small,fat or thin, what are the inherited factors and what are the culturally determined factors? In Java, the term which designates a beautiful woman means "long nosed" in translation to English; does this influence the population physically? THE DEPARTMENT In the short span of two yearssince the Department of Anthropology and Linguistics was officially formed, it has been Bulletin particularly fortunate in its personnel who have had their training in all the fields of anthropology except physical. Perhaps even more important, the department has attracted a total of eleven graduate students in this, the first year it is offering a formal graduate curriculum. Not only are these first rate students but they have been attracted to Buffalo from such far-flung places as Hawaii, Chile and Mexico to study under Professors Smith, Trager and Birdwhistell. The people who are responsible for success of this departmentare well known in their respective fields for their excellent scholarship and teaching. Dr. Henry Lee Smith, Jr., is the Chairman of the department. He is primarily a linguist. Sincereceiving his PhD from Princeton inl93B,hehas done agreat deal ofwork, particularly research,in the structure of English and in the applications of linguistics to other areas. From 1939-41 ProfessorSmith conducted the radio pro- gram entitled. "Where Are You From." On this program he determined from various dialectal clues, the birthplace of speakers of English —with an accuracy approaching 85 percent. From 1946-56 he founded and eventually became Dean of the Schoolof Languages, Foreign Service Institute, Department of State. In 1951, in cooperation with Professor Trager, he wrote the "Outline of English Structure," one of the milestones in modern linguistics. During the past year he made a series of 13 television programs which form an introduction to linguistics. They are now being shown in the over thirty cities from coast to coast which 5 �In Oakfield.

Trager is recognized by many as the Dean of American linguistics. His list of publications numbers close to 200, and includes several extremely important papers which have laid the groundwork for much of the linguistic research of the past decade. Having received his doctorate from Columbia, he has taught at Yale. Oklahoma, Georgetown, and the Foreign Service Institute. Presendy he is engaged primarily in basic linguistic research on the English language in cooperation with Dr. Smith. A book which will revise and supplement the "Outline of English Structure," will be the outcome of the present work. In addition to his other duties,Dr. Trager is editor and publisher of an excellent journal, "Studies in Linguistics." In this journal are published articles of local origin and material from all over the world. The founder of kinesics —the study of gesture and body motions—is Dr. Raymond L. Birdwhistell. He received his training in anthropology at the University of Chicago. Interested in personality development, he has worked with Hopi and Zuni child study materials and conducted a field trip to theKutenai Indians department of anthropology and linguistics.

His research work in American Culture includes a studyof three American adolescent clique groups and an intensive analysis of a small, bluegrass Kentucky town. ProfessorBirdwhistell has been a pioneer in the analysis of the meaning of body motion and is a recognized specialist in communication theory, communityanalysis, and problems relating to American culture and personality. He is the author of "Introduction to Kinesics" and a number of scientific papers. He has been working with psychiatrists in the analysis of the non-verbal aspects of communication in the clinical setting. An ethnologist, Dr. Elizabeth J. Tooker has just framed her Harvard sheepskin. She is particularly interested in studying American Indians—and has Bulletin done field work in the southwestern United States, among the Papago and Yaqui Indians of Arizona. Presently, she is becoming acquainted with the Seneca groups of the Iroquois Indians who have three reservations within 60 miles of Buffalo. The department is fortunate in having the loan of Dr. Marian White from the Buffalo Museum of Science. Dr. White, who has just come to Buffalo from the University of Rochester,is engaged on a long-term archeological project in this area. She has been investigating several local Indian campsites and burial grounds in an attempt to piece together the history of the Indians in this area. Dr. White is conducting several evening courses in archeology this year, the first time it has been offered by this department. The research arm of this department is vestedin the Institute for Research in Human Communication. The Institute is now under a subcontract with the Upstate Medical College of New York, at Syracuse, and is investigating the communication aspects of the psychiatric interview. Dr. Smith's series of television films was also part of the work of this organization. Anthropology and linguistics, one of the newest and most rapidly growing departments of The University of Buffalo will continue to engage in important basic research. Its attraction of high caliber students from widespread areas, and the excellence of its products in terms of material and men will further help to spread the fame of our Univer- sity. 7 �Let's face the factsofinacecoleg By Gordon Greer Reprintedfrom Better Homes and Gardens Magazine One of die stern rules of commerce says that a business stands to make more moneyas it attracts more customers; build a better mousetrap and you'll get rich from crowds that beat a path to your door. With proof of this formula's success strewn from one end of our economyto the other, it's understandable that people tend to look toward the campus with a questioning eye.In spite of a record 3,250,000enrollment—In fact, because of it, to judge from their claims —colleges are sailing troubled financial waters. And nothing unnerves an educator more than the prospect of this attendance doublingby 1970. On die surfaceof it, someone seems to be fumbling a golden chance for profit. But in this case die symptoms are misleading. Educators are not the poor businessmen they might appear, since in truth they aren't businessmen at all and neverintended to be. Service,not profit, is their goal. Colleges are less concerned with gettingmoney out of a customer's pocket than with putting knowledge into his head, and they're determined to hold that aim even if it bankrupts them. It might, too. since they currently foot most of the bill. Private schools pay an averageof 45 percent of each undergraduate's expenses; state colleges pay about 82 percent. The combined college students of this country are charged only onethird the cost of the education they receive. (These figures exclude room and board, which are usually provided at cost.) A committee appointed by President Eisenhower to investigate the situation found that teachers are stuck with most of the deficit. By working for disgracefully low wages,they '"donate" $800 million a year to their students. This is over 53,500per teacher. "The plain fact is," the committee reported, "that the college teachers of the United States,through their inadequate salaries,are subsidizing the education of students, and in some cases the luxuries of students' families,by an amountwhich is more than double the grand total of alumni gifts, corporate gifts, and endowment income of all colleges and universities combined." How come?If, as surveysindicate, a bachelor's degree carries with its larger rewards the promise of an extra 5100,000in lifetime earning power, why should those who supply it have to pay for it as well? Obviously, they shouldn't, and the fact that they do shows the need for a clearer public understanding of what's going on. 6 This, in a nutshell, is the situation: Few students (or their families) can pay for an education while they're getting it. If tuitions were raised to meet expenses, only therichest —and not necessarily the best—scholars would survive. Therefore, colleges quietly make up the differencebetween the price and the price tag, and hope to be remembered when students emerge from their lean years. Unfortunately, it doesn't always work that way. After receiving their sheepskins, many graduates quit town never to be heard from again, leaving in their wake an institution impoverished by their stay and that much less equipped to give future students a proper schooling. Ifthis sounds like a man running off with a dishwasher before making the payments, that's a fair analogy, but there are two differences.First, an education can't be carted back to the store and resold;and second,an alumnus isn't always aware that there are payments involved. For this latter condition, colleges willingly accept the blame. Until recently, they failed to publicize the debt incurred by earning a degree. Why? For one thing, endowment income, alumni contributions, and community support often kept fair pace with expenses, so there wasn't so great a burden. For another, teaching is a proud profession not given to dunning graduates or begging for handouts. In short, the schools preferred tosuffer in silence rather than play the nagging creditor. But there is a limit to how much even a teacher will endure, and since the recent growth in enrollment has not been accompanied by a comparable rise in revenue, some important changes are being made. As a first step, colleges are advertising how they financeevery education, explaining that without the assistance of Alma Mater there would be far fewer students than there are. Hopefully, they think this might touch alumni consciences and increase their gifts—or, more accurately, that more alumni will face up to their debts. Some schools have started classes in college finance.Teachers,administrators,and undergraduates talk over the economic factsof life—not only to encouragegenerosity in the future, but to help students appreciate their education now. Early returns have been encouraging. A number of new graduates, for instance,now take out low-payment life insurance policies naming dieir college as beneficiary. But not all of them keep up the payments, and even when they do the Alumni �school can't expect to get the money for many years. What happens in the meantime? There are several possible solutions, one of which might be called "Learn Now, Pay Later." This plan would boost tuition to ease the teacher's burden, with students financing their education by long-term loans. However, there's a naturalreluctance for banks and loan associations to lend money to men and women with no security and an uncertain future, and since higher tuitions will probably wait until all students who need creditors find them, this project might be some time coming. Outright federal aid enjoys some popularity, and so does indirect aid through tax exemptions to students or their families, but not much of it comes from government officials or educators. Private colleges are anxious to maintain their independence, and many legislators think it's enough that the public alreadysupports about 60 percent of all college students through state taxes. Ifthere is to be federal aid3 majority opinion seems to favor a loan fund, with the government acting as creditor for needy undergraduates. How about scholarships? One camp saysthere aren't nearly enough to go around, another camp says that nevertheless there are already three times too many. The first judgment is both obvious and true. The second is equally valid, though, since most grants cover only die student's share of expenses, not the college's. Aimed at helping students to get a good education, straight tuition scholarships really make it increasingly hard for colleges to give one. Fortunately, many awards are now divided equitably between the school and the scholar,but this increases the drain on the donor and sharply reduces the number of recipients. Make no doubt of it: colleges need every cent they can get, and all of these plans will help, as will several other similar ones. But neither singly nor in combination will they do the job. To stay on their feet, schools need more vigorous support from students —past, present, and future. Those who reap the greatest benefitsfrom higher education are being asked to play a bigger role in financing it, and this, after all, is as it should be. Roughly 20 percent of today's alumni make regular contributions to their Alma Mater; 80 percent do not. In addition to those who still aren't fully aware of their debt, this large majorityof noncontributors holds a few graduates who honestly can't afford the expense. But most of them just don't want to. There seems to be a variety of reasons. Some of the guilty parties apparently facesuch a backlog of neglect that they're afraid to tackle the job of making amends,preferring to carry the burden of troubled consciences. Others seem to consider it a mark of their own cleverness that they slipped through school at reduced fare, and summarily reject any moral or financial claims. Not only do colleges have to plead for what little cash they get from these people, but not infrequently they have to stand still while the old grads tell them how to spend it. Only with the firm promise that it goesto a pet project will some alumni part with their money—moneythey probably made as a result of an education they never paid for. And, regrettably, the needs of the school are often subordinate to any fame that might attend the gift. So it is that a vain alumnus often invests in shiny buildings (which have bronze plaques holding contributors names in dubious immortality) rather than in shabby teachers (who so far haven't started to wear sandwich boards advertising to the world their former students' generosity), disregarding the more desperate need on most campuses for adequate faculty pay. There was a time in this nation's history when all it took to combat problems of this magnitude was to make them known. With freedom's taste fresh on men's tongues, there was little danger of apathy competingwith action. The way of life born in that spirit now facesa crisis that must be met in that spirit. America's survival—and mankind's—seems more and more to hinge on the ability of our colleges to develop people clever enough to devise instruments of awesome power and wise enough to use them properly. Since the effectivenessof the colleges depends on public support, the real question is whether or not we are too bored with freedom to take steps that might assure its continuation. While the rest of us think it over, while we juggle issues, weigh pros and cons, and leisurely ponder whether or not to chip in, the teacher sticks to his thankless task of holding our colleges together on chewing gum and bobby pins. For this we should be humbly grateful. It is no small thing in these times for a man to throw up his chance at fame and fortune so that someone else's son might get a decent education.

It is more than just a favored economic instrument. It is more than a legal entity existing in con- confineitself to a chain of reasoning that would prove profitability in terms of actual dollars on the corporation's balance sheet. Obviously there is a need to examine each case individually. law." a bloodless apparition, as the juristic description might indicate. In recent yearsthis power structure has,in fact, become an indispensable organ of our entire economic and social structure. However, it is clear that no institution, the corporation included, will survive if it is dedicated only to self-preservation in the narrow sense. A business has a goal beyond simple success. Business is an integral part of our society and as such must make a contribution of service to society, as well as a profit, if it hopes to survive beyond the short term period. The awareness of the frontiers of social responsibility which many corporations are now beginning to show may arise in part from conscience but more likely stems from the need for long-run survival. Reasonably, then, a corporation may show its social responsibility through its charitable enterprises. Still, in these endeavors,the corporation is not justone of 170 million citizens. Rather it is a nucleus of influence with extraordinary opportunities as well as obligations. The "scattergun"type of corporate giving—so popular in the past—is wasteful.The exercise of what might be called the "corporate conscience" requires perceptive analysis of the reasons for and the effects of giving. On the one hand the thinking behind Corporate giving should not be strongly influenced by the possible immediate gains from publicity. On the other hand although a case for long-range corporate benefitsis desirable, the case need not Corporations and the University temporary society—a "creature of the Earlier in this year The University of Buffalo captured the imagination of alumni, faculty, special contributors, and many other friends with the introduction of its Program for Progress, a $9,600,000 campaign designed to expand and improve the University's educational and other services to the entire community. The success of this initial phase of the campaign is now an established fact. Tangible evidence of this success can be seen The new chemistry building,scheduled for occ �in the new music building, Baird Hall, and in Sherman Hall, the new building devoted to medical research. In addition, a new $1,950,000 Chemistry Building is well along in its construction in the southeastern part of the campus. A new phase of the development campaign is now about to begin—"PhaseB." In Phase B strong emphasis will be placed on the support for the Campaign which, we are sure, can be obtained from business and industry. Both the urgency and the closelyrelated appeal of this campaign qualifyit as a prime object for the charitable efforts of corporations in the Western New York area —one in which the "reasons" for giving are impelling and the "effects" of giving are being made apparent very rapidly. Voluntary support of The University of Buffalo is vital to higher education in this area and higher education is vital to Western New York business. The future importance of Western New York as a strong and growing industrial center is firmly linked with the successfulexpansion and development of the University. It is the University's function to produce the educated manpower to work as the agencyfor theoretical and practical research,and to serve as the wellspring of social, cultural, political, and economic traditions and progressiveness. If there were no University these functionswould have to be provided by industry in order to attract new manpower. Then too. The University of Buffalo is growing in its role as an institution providinga multitude of daily services to business and industry. The rate at which this growth can continue in the future is dependent in the long-run on the support which the University receives from business men. Immediate Need It has been forecastwith considerable reliability that the present enrollment of almost 3,000.000students in colleges and universities throughout the nation will be doubled by 1971. This is based on the rising birthrate since World War IIand the ever increasing emphasis on higher education. It is imperative that we expand both our faculty and our plant if we are to be prepared to double our current enrollment while maintaining our high occupancynext fall —a result of corporate giving. standards of education. The University's immediate need is to provide by 1960 ihe buildings, facilities, and faculty for an enrollment of more than 7,500full-time and 6,500 part-time students. The earlier phase of the De- velopment Campaign was successfulin providing approximately $6,000,000 for faculty endowment and the construction of several new buildings. The growing complexity of business and industrial life has increased steadily the University's cost of training its students. Approximately 53,600,000is still needed in order that the University currently may provide better applied and basic research,better methods of training, and adequate facilities to prepare today's students for tomorrow's requirements of American business. Specifically the task remaining involves the completion of the Chemistry Building; the construction of the Health Sciences Building; the erection of a classroom building and clinic center; and the construction of a second unit of the proposed Fine Arts Center. The Challenge The University in Phase B—the corporate phase—of its Capital Gifts Campaign must implement the successful efforts which have gone before.In short, the whole-hearted cooperation of our business community is necessary in order to achieve the over-all goal. Just as an individual business tries to protect and to improve its position in the business world by long-range planning, so must the enture business community support the needs of the University in order to maintain and to improve its future position in society. Granted that the task is a challenging one, still it must be met successfully. Time and again in American history the busi- nessman has transcended his industrial role and become the buttress of the public welfare. He is needed again—now. �...

Alumni �Bulls Upset Harvard 6-3 O'Grady and Bottini combination scores winning touchdown The University of Buffalo planted the Ivy at Cambridge on Saturday, Septem- There were no individual heroes for the Bulls. Coach Dick Offenhamer ber 27—and they planted it in the rain and mud with a 6-3 victory over Harvard praised the entire team for its showing against the "sleepers" of the Ivy League. Of course O'Grady and Bottini were in on the scoring play and no one can take that away from them. But there were others who are worthy of mention. Sophomore quarterback Gordon Bukaty from Lackawanna was praised by his coach for "calling the plays well, taking charge and running the club well." Bukaty found out the morning of the gamethat he would start at quarterback. He called the quick kick which was the turning point of the game.Offenhamer said he would have called the same play. The kick came at the start of the fourth quarter when fullback Bill Brogan punted from the Buffalo 37, 55 yards to University. The more than 1,000U.B. rooters, led by Chancellor and Mrs. Furnas, who made the trip, had plenty to cheer about when guard Joe O'Grady blocked a Crimson punt and co-captain Nick Bottini grabbed it in the end zone for the tally. This proved to be the margin of victory for the fighting Bulls in their finest football hour to date. The Bulls had plenty of desire, or heart, or intestinal fortitude, or whatever you want to call it when you win a ballgame like the one played in Harvard Stadium that day. Even the most rabid U.B. supporter thought Harvard a little too tough for the Bulls, especially with the series of injuries that befell Buffalo during fall practice. But the toughness was all Buffalo. Outyards to 92 (177 to 46 on the gained ground) and 16 first downs to 6, the Bulls were just too tough when it counted. Time and time again the Crimson moved toward the goal line only to be frustrated in an attempt to score any more than the field goal they made good in the first quarter. 211 the Harvard8 where the ballrolled dead. Brogan was a leading ground gainer for the Bulls and also played a fine gameon defense. Other outstanding performers included end Dave Brogan, guard Phil Bamford, who intercepted a Harvard pass at a crucial point, and tackle SamSanders.Halfback Willie Evans was praised for his fine defensiveplay. The most thrilling moments of the game, other than the scoring play, oc- curred at the very end of the fourth quarter. After Brogan's quick kick to the Harvard 8, the Crimson marched to the Buffalo 17 yard stripe aided by two 15 yard penalties. The Bulls held but Harvardtook over again on a recovered fumble on the Buffalo 39. This time Harvard marched to the 6 and that was all. Bukatyran one play and the gameended. Buffalo 6. Harvard 3. There is no doubt about the importance of this game.Itvaulted the Buffalo gridders into national prominence. It is a great boost to the team, the coaching staff, alumni and the University. Saturated by the sheets of falling rain before, during and after the game, the loyal Buffalo boosters who made the Harvard trip could be heard to say over and over again, "It's a beautiful day." During the week the magazine was to go to press, the Bulls kept rolling alongwith a 7-6 victory over Cortland StateTeachers College at Cortland, N. Y. and a 19-6 win over Western Reserve in Cleveland.

I | facultu Re: .. \V] alumni ... I I WHERE THERE'S A WILL students Is there really anyreason whyyou shouldn't remember The University ofBuffalo in your will? The fact that you are reading this demonstrates that the University means something to you cither as an alumnus,parent of a student, or a close friend. Legacies to educational institutions are not just for the wealthy to make. Anyone of average means and conviction of the need of his college can make a bequest which will multiply itself through its effect on many students. He can literally perpetuate his resources indefinitely. More and more people are making charitable bequests, particularly to educational institutions. They range from token gifts of SlOO or less to many thousands of dollars. LOVED ONES COME FIRST, OF COURSE . .. Naturally one must think of his loved ones first and provide for them but it may be possible to include a bequest for the University, too. In any case, it is always possible to include a clause in one's will where the remainder of the estate passes over to The University of Buffalo after the death of all heirs. In some cases a man may see his children grow to be entirely self-sufficient.After providing in his will for his wife, he may find that a sum bequeathed to the University, which helped shape his career, brings him a great sense of satisfaction.Alumni who do this say that they feelan obligation has been met because they have always known that the tuition they paid while in school never really covered the full cost to their alma mater. . .. THERE'S A WAY Undoubtedly, making a will is a very personal thing. However, everyoneshould make one. If you have a will, how long has it been since you reviewed it? Does it cover your and reflect your present wishes? If youare makingor revising yourwill, The University of Buffalooffersyouan unparalleled opportunity to associate yourself with enduring progressin education. You can leave a permanent memorial to yourself and family while helping others to have the opportunity you enjoyed. current status ... OR YOU CAN GIVE BY TRUST Transferof property to the management of a trustee in one of various ways can provide for the immediate or future benefitof The University of Buffalo.A donor canreserve income for himselffor life, provide for dependents or survivors and simultaneously gain substantial tax benefitfor himself and his estate. Assuming that a donor wishes to provide for his wife and family by way of a trust created by will, he may provide that on fulfillment of these obligations theremainder shall be given to The University of Buffalo. Depending on the nature of the estate, it is possible that by reason of this arrangement, his family will have more income. The charitable deduction allowable will reduce the estate tax, possibly to such a point that the principal of the trust remains substantially undisturbed, thus allowing it to earn more money for the wife and children.

F. Heidenburg, BA'49, EdM'sl Editor Alumni �During this crucial period of the Cold War between the United States and Russia, with satellites circling the earth and guided missiles being launched every week, it is something of value to pause and ask .. . Where Do We Stand? by Chancellor Clifford C. Furnas The finest compliment to the success of "sputnik propaganda" is that many Americans have been frightened into a good case of the jitters. The average citizen has been passing from an initial state of shock, caused by the orbiting of Russian earth satellites, into a kind of cynical mental smog. There is no cause for panic, though a little healthful fright may be helpful. We are indebted to the Russians for a much needed jolt. Panic is acute fear of the known or unknown. The assurance which Americans are craving today is the promise that there will be no great world-wide war destroying civilization. The question which keeps popping up in our minds is: how strong are we in terms of defense and other items of national strength? Obviously any assessment of America's position should be made in comparison with her major competitor in the world arena of military, political and ideological conflict. Let us see where we stand vis-a-vis the Russians. — Various aspects of the competitive situation are: technological advances, demonstrations of new weapons such as guided missiles, progress in institutions of basic research and fundamental attitudes toward education. Unfortunately most of us are more eager for "answers" in terms of the striking power of spectacular weapons (or pseudo-weapons such as earth satellites) dian for "questions" concerning our basic values and their resultant procedures. Sputniks I and II and our own satellite project have led to a series of charges and countercharges about the status of technological developments which involve modern weapons, particularly of the missile variety. In modern weaponry, progress is gauged by the development of certain key components of complete weapons systems. Let us examine the score on a few of the components that are involved in the long range ballistic missiles which are currently so much in the headlines. Bulletin 3 �INFORMATION BY TELEMETERING Telemetering is the operation by which sends down information by radio waves from instruments on board a missile or other flying devices. It is essential for the effective development as well as operation of guided missiles or satellites. This skill has been highly developed in this country and has been used for a number of years in connection with missile developments. Our telemetering systems are ingenious and one reliable. In die case of our own satellites, we will have very elaborate instrumentation on board and an effective system of telemetering. The instruments involved are very precise but smaller and much lighter than those which the Russians use. Some scientists who have been in touch with the Russians' experimental work have reported that that nation has not yet the ability to make the compact and lightweight, yet reliable, electronic equipment that we have. This is not to belittle Russian progress, for they are obviously doing some excellent telemetering. However, our scientific progress in telemetering appears to surpass that of the Russians. METALLURGY The evidence indicates that in metal- lurgy the two countries are about even. The Russians have excellent light alloys for aircraft and missiles and excellent high temperature alloys which they use in their jet engine construction. Each country has samples of the other's metals. The physical properties of the alloys used for particular purposes arc very much the same. As far as I know, there is no direct information on the construction or materials of the rocket chambers which are used to launch their satellites and guided missiles, but obviously the Russians have developed effective materials. From the evidence in hand, I would say the score in metallurgy is probably tied. ROCKET THRUST With the present known state of the art of rocketry and with the commonly available fuels and oxidants to put a satellite on orbit, the gross weight of the complete rocket assembly needs to be about 1,000 pounds for each pound of a Intercontinental missiles have made hypersonic flight (over 5 times the speed of sound) of immediate importance. To study the effect of hypersonic speeds on materials and structures and to determine the aerodynamics of hot gases encountered in hypersonic flow, facilities like the ones shown above are being utilized in research laboratories. An early version of a Cornell Aeronautical Laboratory hypersonic shock tube is in action. Airflow reached Mach 13. (13 times the speed of sound at sea level). satellite body. This weight does not include that of the case of the last rocket stage which might also continue in orbit, as in the case of Sputnik I. In the case of the American Project Vanguard, a satellite of some 21/2 pounds is to be placed on orbit and the whole rocket ensemble, with fuel, will weigh something over 20,000 pounds. Obviously, the rocket thrust must be somewhat greater than the weight. Hence one can make an estimate of the thrust required for the Russian experiments. In the case of Vanguard which is to deliver the 21/2 pound satellite, the first stage rocket will produce 27,000 pounds thrust. Sputnik I is reliably reported to weigh about 180 pounds. Hence, the rocket thrust required must be somewhere between 200,000 and 250,000 pounds. If Sputnik II weighs half a ton, as reported, then the Russians must have rocket systems with a thrust in the neighborhood of a million pounds. When one puts all the evidence together, he concludes that the Russians have produced rockets of greater thrust than ours and that they are probably ahead of us in overall rocket development. RE-ENTRY PROBLEMS If something is to be brought back from outside the atmosphere, some special means must be provided for withstanding the heat generated as it reenters the earth's blanket of air. Otherwise, the object will melt or bum up. This is the re-entry problem. There are various ways of approaching it. One is to slow down the object by ingenious devices over a relatively long period of time in order to reduce the temperatures. Another way is to provide a "heat sink" which will absorb the heat generated for a few seconds, without destruction of the body. A- third is to utilize materials which have such high temperature resistance that they will not melt. Naturally, all three approaches are being explored. In a recent telecast, President Eisenhower displayed an American missilenose cone which had been on a trip several hundred miles into space, had returned to the atmosphere at a velocity of many thousand miles per hour, and survived without damage. This is evidence that we are making very satisfactory progress in solving this problem. Alumni 4 �Although the Russians, through newsre- leases, have hinted that they have solved the re-entry problem, there is no direct evidence to support the claim. I would judge from the facts in hand that we are somewhat ahead of the Russians on the re-entry problem. ACCURACY IN ORBIT When a satellite is launched into space, it must not only have the requisite velocity around the earth (some 18,000 miles per hour), it must also be pointed in the proper direction. This calls for an accuracy of orientation of about 1° of arc. Since there are 360° in a circle, this would indicate that the Russians have a guidance and control system which will give them an accuracy of at least one part in a few hundred. Thus, Russians have demonstrated a reasonable capability of achieving sufficient accuracy for guided missiles. In order to hit a target with a ballistic missile, not only must the direction of travel be accurately controlled, the velocity at the time of "cut-off" of the thrust must also be controlled minutely. This adds complexity to the problem. We have some guidance systems which are inherently very accurate and can meet the requirements. Matching this, the Russians have made commendable progress in produce tion of guidance systems of moderate accuracy, as evidenced the Sputnik successes. Ours which are still in development are probably somewhat more refined, but the Russians are probably already in small scale production on theirs. This is a photograph of the possible missile configuration re-entering atmosphere where problems of drag and friction arise. Here the missile's nose is deflected downward from the true flight path of the missile. The luminosity about the missile model illustrates the danger of an unstable penetration into the atmosphere. Should a missile or rocket enter the atmosphere in such a position, it would burn up quickly. PRODUCTION RECORD From the evidence, it would appear that the Russians are producing, or are about to produce, intermediate-range missiles (IRBM's) of 1,000 to 1,500 miles range and in the not distant future these could be fired on targets with at least moderate accuracy. There is no evidence that they have yet advanced to the point of successful production of intercontinental ballistic missiles. (ICBM's) But because of military secrecy it is hard to say how far, if any, their ICBM program is ahead of ours. THE SCORE The summing up of the current military situation is about as follows. In satellites, the Russians are substantially Bulletin Shown above, an Army surface-to-surface missile, the Lacrosse, designed and developed by Cornell Aeronautical Laboratory, Inc. Lacrosse demonstrated deadly accuracy and a high degree of mobility for close support operation on the battle-field. Included in the weapon system are a truck-mounted launcher, a guidance station, and the missile. 5 �ahead of us. In some components of guided missile systems they are ahead of us; in others we are out in front. In the total ballistic missile systems they are in the lead at the present time. Does this mean that the Soviet Union has a greater military striking power than the United States? Of course not, and there is no reason to be frantic. In spite of the success of Sputniks and the Russian missile program, the United States, because of the highly effective bombers of the Strategic Air Command and our system of overseas bases, still has the greater retaliatory power. Although that sounds comforting, it should lull no one into complacency. With still further Russian progress in ballistics missiles that balance of power could be reversed very rapidly. To maintain our security we must continue to advance in those many factors which determine defensive potential: extensive research, varied weapons, diversity of forces, sizable armies, broad distribution of bases, healthy industrial growth, strong liaison with dependable allies, and an enlightened public. MISSILES AND STRATEGY Vanguard, the satellite launching rocket designed and built by The Martin Company, is as tall as a seven-story building. The rocket shown here is a test vehicle in its giant gantry-crane structure at Cape Canaveral, Florida. Before a test rocket takes off, the gantry structure is rolled back on tracks. The cable tower, left, holds power lines. TheB-61 Martin Matador pilotless bomber is the initial equipment for the Ist Pilotless Bomber Squadron (Light) at the USAF Missile Test Center, Cocoa, Fla. The Matador is the first operational unit of its kind in the Air Force. One thing is crystal clear, that, whatever the cost in effort and dollars, we must be equipped and prepared in every way to fight limited as well as global wars. Since the Communist Bloc has seen fit to continue "local incidents" and "brush fire wars," we must meet them on this ground with whatever weapons are necessary for the situation. We seem to be in agreement with the Russians that guided missiles are very valuable weapons for use in limited as well as global wars. In most of the limited wars which we can now anticipate becoming engaged in, it is almost certain that at times our troops will be greatly outnumbered. It will be necessary to deploy our men and equipment to almost any part of the world very rapidly. Therefore, unless we can maintain a family of weapons that are substantially more effective than those of any enemy, we will find ourselves in awkward if not untenable situations. Hence, it is most essential that the development of guided missiles for limited war be pointed toward achieving the greatest possible capability in: (1) increased effectiveness per man, (2) increased effectiveness per pound, and Alumni 6 �versatility in order to cope with a great variety of situations with a limited number of types of missiles. To satisfy these requirements the American ground forces have ready at the present time the following group of ground-launched guided missiles: 1. Dart—a limited-range wire-guided missile designed particularly for anti-tank use. 2. Lacrosse —a highly accurate missile carrying a very substantial warhead, electronically guided to the target by a forward observer. 3. Corporal—a 75 mile range ballistic missile with inertial guidance. 4. Redstone—a 200 mile range ballistic missile with inertia! guidance. 5. Nike-Ajax and Nike-Hercules (3) extreme — electronically guided anti-aircraft missiles for medium to high alti- tude targets. 6. Hawk—an electronically guided, low-level anti-aircraft missile. There are several other missiles in the American armory—such as air-to-air and air-to-ground varieties that could play a role in limited war, but the above six are probably most important at the present time. They make up the first generation of a well-balanced and effective family, carefully planned for fulfilling the ground forces needs. These developments should not, and undoubtedly will not, remain static: constant improvements must be made in simplicity of operations, reliability, light weight, lethality and accuracy. As time goes on, some members of the family will probably be dropped as obsolete to be replaced by more advanced and effective weapons. The slow, difficult and expensive program of constant improvement of weapons must go on, because if we are to be outnumbered and outweighed we must be in a position to out-smart potential enemies. You do that by having better weapons. We can have better weapons only by maintaining scientific and technological leadership in military as well as civilian affairs. SCIENTIFIC LEADERSHIP The more complicated war has become, the more important has been the role of the scientist, the inventor, and the engineer. The battle of the laboratory, the design room, and the shop leads to rapid changes to the equipment and materials of war. For example, the success of the atomic bomb demonstrated in no uncertain terms that the long-haired scientists did know what they were talking about and it became evident that any nation which intended to lead in military affairs must have an effective and continuing research and development program. A common fallacy in our thinking in solving big problems is that big money is the short-cut and is all that is needed. Actually a great deal of money has been spent on defense programs, so the solutions probably lie through proper distribution of the cash and scientific effort. That distribution of money and effort can be improved. In our budget levelling-off process last year, the military research and development program was unduly injured—perhaps seriously. In a budget squeeze it is a common fiscal formula to reduce all activities of a department or programby the same degree. This is easy but not rational, since it bypasses the question: what most needs to be done? One reason the development of new weapons is so expensive is that we do not do an adequate amount of research before we begin building prototypes. In nearly all the developments there have been many unanswered technical questions which, with foresight, could have been solved through the research route several years before. The progress of a development may stop while some sticky little problem is being solved, but the expense goes on and on. To handle such situations I feel it is most important that our military program give increased emphasis on what I choose to call "background research and development" and thus solve many of our problems before they hit us in the face. SCIENTIFIC RESEARCH AND EDUCATION How can we be assured of continuing research leadership? To educate the host of young men and women who can be tomorrow's scientists and engineers will be difficult, and it will be expensive. The problem starts with the high schools. There are many accusations that the education provided in our secondary schools is too superficial to meet the needs. Through better motivation, perhaps compulsion, more of the youngsters should be induced, or perhaps forced, to take good, solid courses in elementary mathematics'and science. I believe that these arguments are sound. We do need to educate many more of our intelligent young people in the mathematical and scientific disciplines. To do the task as it should be will cost money. It will call for many more good science and mathematics teachers in the secondary schools than we now have. It Once the orbital velocity of almost 18,000 miles per hour is reached, the satellite is separated from the third-stage rocket by a spring mechanism. For a time, the empty third-stage trails along behind as a second satellite. The moon will follow an orbit around the earth once every 90 to 100 minutes, measuring and transmitting vital data. Bulletin 7 �will take effort and resolution on the part of school authorities as well as money. It won't be easy but it can be done if there is an adequate national will. Improved secondary education in science and mathematics will not have any impact on the improvement of the national scientific research picture for quite a few years to come. Hence, it is of even greater importance at the moment to bolster the structure of scientific and engineering education in the colleges and universities at both the undergraduate and graduate levels. The problems involved are money, teachers and facilities. Actually, the latter two could b.^ resolved in a reasonable length of time if adequate financial support of higher education were available. The necessary funds can come from governmental sources—local, state and federal —from individuals and from industry. Industry has been steadily increasing its support of higher education during the past few years, but it must invest much, much more if the challenge is to be met. Will the necessary funds be forthcoming? The answer is up to the various segments of the American public. America cannot evade the issue, even though it attempts to shirk in providing the solution. Further, in the furor of the moment over science and technology we must not allow our educational pattern to become unbalanced. Although, at the moment, we are most concerned with military matters, we must always remember that we are engaged in a long-time struggle for men's minds. This calls for sound background and thinking in the humanities, in the arts and in all the basic professions. If we neglect or underemphasize these fields it will be at our ultimate peril. Any argument that says we cannot afford to support our colleges and universities adequately is not valid. Last year the nation spent less than eighttenths of one per cent of the gross national product on all higher education, in both tax supported and non-tax supported institutions. We spent 50 per cent more than that on tobacco and two and one-half times as much on alcoholic beverages. I am by no means decrying the appropriate use of tobacco and alcohol. I am simply saying that if America really wants to maintain its status in the world by doing what is necessary for higher education, it will certainly be able to foot the bill. 8 A graduate student in the College of Arts and Sciences conducts experimentation in high-vacuum technique. It is this type of post-graduate education that is so important to produce the number of scientists to meet the present industrial demands. WHERE DO WE STAND? In our total national strength, where do we stand? In satellites and the longrange ballistic missiles field the Russians are ahead. In over-all military retaliatory power the United States is still ahead of the Russians, but the Russians are coming up very rapidly. They are also moving very rapidly in education in science and engineering, with emphasis on research in both basic and applied science. They are now graduating two to three times as many scientists and engineers each year as we are. These graduates are well trained although often over-specialized and narrow in terms of a balanced background. In industrial production capacity America is far ahead of Russia. We also still hold the lead in general quality and quantity of scientific research, but the Russians are confident that they can overtake and pass us in a relatively few years in scientific and technical fields, for both military and industrial purposes. This means that America must meet this challenge by harnessing its educational and scientific potential to maintain its leading position. The development of the Sputniks shows that the Russians can surpass us in certain fields if they concentrate on them. This is the stimulus which we needed to jar us out of our feeling of false security. As far as scholars in universities are concerned, it is their essential spirit that they are never satisfied with what they know. We at The University of Buffalo are imbued with a constant zeal to extend the frontiers of knowledge in all fields. The unimpairedpursuit of knowledge is the real source of the ultimate national strength. If the American public as a whole can be brought to realize this, and act accordingly, we can face the future with confidence but not with complacency. — Alumni �Lane Bryant Award to-A.P.F.M.E. Medical Participating Fund Termed "a refreshing switch" The Ninth Lane Bryant Annual Awards for volunteer service to the community were presented at a luncheon at the Hotel Pierre in New York City on November 14 by Raphael Molsin, president of Lane Bryant, Inc., before a group of more than 300 leaders in social, welfare, civic, educational and business fields. Established in 1948 the Lane Bryant Annual Awards were conceived to inspire and encourage voluntary participation in efforts that benefit the American home and community life. The awards of one thousand dollars are given one to an individual and one to a group for the most outstanding volunteer service rendered to the community during the year. Those receiving the 1956 Awards were: Danny Kaye, Beverly Hills, California, $1,000, Individual Award for his work on behalf of the United ChildrensFund, UNICEF, for which he has traveled 100,000 miles in three trips around the world; and The Allegheny Conference on Community Development, $1,000, Group Award, for an intensified program of development in Allegheny . of The University of Buffalo based upon pledges of annual $100 units from physicians. In presenting the award to the Medical Participating Fund, Mr. Molsin said, "The average doctor gives considerable free service through hospital clinics and sometimes privately. He often feels that this is enough to ask of him. The usual medical drive is powered by laymen—boards of trustees or ad hoc lay groups. In Buffalo we have seen a refreshing switch. The University medical faculty needed strengthening to an extent that no one campaign could satisfy. Physicians themselves, under the leadership of Dr. Edgar C. Beck, joined to form a group, alumni of The University and others. They met for fifty consecutive weeks, raised funds in units of $100 from four out of five practicing doctors in Erie County, raised $200,000 in this way, inspired others to give, and finally helped obtain a climactic bequest of $10,000,000. Salaries in the basic sciences were supported and the faculty enlarged with educators of high calibre. Collaboration between the medical school and the area physicians was improved. Standards of medical practice and public health have been raised. The Fund still exists. As an example of a rather unique effort in successfully solving a major local problem that has national import, I am privileged to cite for Honorable Mention for the Lane Bryant Award the Executive Committee of the Annual Participating Fund for Medical Education, The University of Buffalo. In accepting the award on behalf of the Executive Committee, Dr. Edgar C. Beck, MD '19, said, "The Annual Participating Fund for Medical Education greatly appreciates this honor which you have bestowed upon us. Our Committee believes that those who truly deserve this recognition are the physicians, alumni, non-alumni alike, whose enthusiasm and support have made possible this vital undertaking. The word, "participating", in Annual Participating Fund means just that. Members are kept in close touch with the affairs of the School of Medicine and their opinions are highly regarded by the Dean and his staff. In a very tangible way, physicians have shown their awareness of their responsibility for educating the doctors of the future. Their example has stimulated others in the community to help support our Medical School. Although a great deal has been accomplished, the medical men alone cannot do the entire job. Medical education needs further support from all possible sources if we are to graduate highly trained physicians capable of safeguarding the health of the American public." County, Pennsylvania. The Honorable Mention, Individual Awards, went to Wilbur Warner, Le- highton, Pennsylvania for his many and diverse contributions to his community and to Norman Cousins, New Canaan, Connecticut, for his work with the famous Hiroshima Maidens, twenty-five girls who were brought to the United States for plastic surgery. The Executive Committee of the Annual Participating Fund for Medical Education of The University of Buffalo was given the Honorable Mention Group Award for its support of the School of Medicine and enlarging and deepening the understanding between the faculty of the Medical School and practicing physicians in the area. The Committee established a program of support for salaries in the basic science departments Bulletin Attending the awards dinner were: Seated 1. to r., Mrs. Marvin L.

Additional supplements will follow. This Dear Alumnus: There are older universities than The University of Buffalo (in fact, we are pretty young as universities go); there are larger ones and a few more widely known. But you must agree, there are no better ones. So let's start with what really matters; you are quite proud to be numbered among The University of Buffalo Alumni and happy to see the University on the threshold of a great new era, one in which you play an important role. ... A good example of this is that all of the 22 alumni members of the University Council and the 19 members of the Executive Committee of the General Alumni Board are optimistic enough about the University's future to have in each case pledged generously to the Development Campaign. Faculty and Staff support in the campaign is promising to date. This we expected, as the loyalty of our Faculty and Staff is well-known. The Students kicked-off their campaign with a benefit performance of "The Drunkard", presented in conjunction with the Blue Masquers and the Drama and Speech Department. Charles H. Diefendorf, general campaign chairman, told the enthusiastic audience at the kick-off dinner (see inside page) that $4, 700, 000 already had been pledged. "We are approximately 50% of the way tonight, "he said. To all the early contributors of the campaign we express our thanks. We hope in the near future to be able to report 100% participation of other divisions in our University family. CORRECTION! This Development Newsletter reported erroneously in the last issue certain percentages for potential sources of Capital Funds in the present drive.

Dr. Cantor has also applied himself to problems in industry and on the international scene, and has served as consultant to the personnel departments of numerous industries during and following World War 11. In 1947, Dr. Cantor was asked by UNESCO to participate in its study of "education for international understanding." . ■ He responded by drafting a series of questions on "Developing Critical Thinking as This Relates to International Understanding" to be used as a guide for member countries. He also acted as a UNESCO advisor in a project on "The Training of Teachers for Developing International Understand- ing." Dr. Nathaniel Cantor, chairman of the department of sociology at the University, and a member of the faculty since 1928, died on December 4 at his home in Buffalo. Dr. Cantor was a 1928 graduate of the University Law School. He also held a bachelor's degree from Columbia University in 1921 and a PhD degree from Columbia in 1925. During his 29 years at the University, Dr. Cantor won world wide recognition as an expert on sociology, criminology and teaching. Early in his career he won recognition as a criminologist through two books, "Crime, Criminals and Criminal Justice" and "Crime and Society." He studied prison conditions and crime first hand both in the United States and Europe. Later in his career, Dr. Cantor's interest expanded to include the human relations aspect of education.

Next year's schedule will again commit the Bulls against tougher competition. Ivy League Universities Harvard and Columbia are scheduled away and home, respectively. Lehigh, Western Reserve, Cortland, Wayne and Temple renew Road Wins Successful Formula Harvard, Columbia Next Year The success or failure of a football season can depend upon, or be affected by, a number of things including tough luck, bad breaks, weather, injuries, how well the team did last year, calibre of opposition and various factors too numerous to list. Some of these reasons are good excuses for the coach, some are valuable cover up material for the publicity director and some are just downright truthful but impossible to explain to enthusiastic alumni who have waited so long for at least a 9-0 season. Two years ago The University of Buffalo football team under the direction of Coach Dick Offenhamer, then in his first year of coaching here, had a 4-4-1 record, quite an improvement over the 2-7 record the year before. Last year against stiffer competition the Bulls compiled a 5-3 record. This year, against the toughest competition the Bulls have seen in years, they ended the season with 5 victories and 4 defeats. To many victory starved alumni this record does not spell success. But neither will this year's one loss record by Oklahoma please many of the Sooner alumni. The point I think we must remember is that success should not have to depend on a ftawtess or near flawless record, but whether or not the team has given its best againstrepresentative competition. This year's success was indicated in one way by the rise of some individual stars. The most notable of these was Fran Woidzik, the 240 pound tackle from Elmira who did an outstanding job game after game and was suitably recognized by being chosen as an outstanding lineman of the week in the East, on two different occasions, and placed on the All-East team both times. Joe O'Grady, a guard, also won a berth on the All-East team for his play against Wayne State. Nick Bottini, probably the most improved player on the squad, was brilliant week after week their rivalries and Bucknell appears once again, this time as a home game. and will be making a bid as one of the foremost ends in the East when he returns for next year's gridiron wars. Jim Allegretto, a sophomore quarterback, saw plenty of action this season and will be heard from in the future as he gains additional stature with more ex- perience. Even though some stars were bom, others, as a result of injuries, never had an opportunity to mature and this fact gave Coaches Offenhamer, Kluckhohn and Dunlop reasons to grieve on many Saturdays. Bill Brogan, a highly touted sophomore fullback, was injured early in the season and missed the final 7 games. Jim Gibbons, a veteran end, was out the entire season with a broken jaw. Other players who met with mishaps were Dick VanValkenburg and Jim Keats, experienced backs, out most of the season; first string tackle Gordon DeMasi, out the last three games with a broken arm; tackle Jack Welch, out the first six games; tackle Bernie Fagan, injured for three crucial games and Willie Evans and Ken Born, backs out for two games with injuries. These injuries kept the Bulls physically under par for the entire season. So success under these conditions depended on hard work, team spirit and a little intestinal fortitude, a trio of attributes demonstrated time and time again by the Bulls. There are times when the success of a parent in enhanced by the success of its offspring. The 1957 Baby Bulls, under the able direction of Ron LaRocque with the aid of former Buffalo Bill lineman, Jack Carpenter, made their varsity counterparts proud of them by compiling a perfect 4 and 0 record. The big hurdle in the opposition, Manlius, fell 19-7 before the freshman on- slaught. A few names to remember on the freshman squad are Gordon Bukaty and Another year of Dr. Furnas' five year athletic plan has passed. The fortunes of University of Buffalo football have progressed in each of the first three years and Dr. Furnas believes we are even a bit ahead of schedule. Success is measured by the progress we are making and 1957 was certainly a year of progress. Perhaps 1958 will be even more successful.

With these relatively inexperienced ballplayers, "Serf" will be out to better last year's 18-7 record and a post season bid to tournament competition. In the workouts prior to the opening game on December 2, Coach Scrfustini was extremely pleased with the progress his boys had made and especially their hustle on defense and rebounding. He expects the offense to take a bit longer to jell and is sure it will straighten out as the boys gain experience working to- gether. U.B.

A ten-year-old child can be exto have mastered the articulation of all the English language sounds, the use of combinations of words, vocal inflections Uater to be lowered in pitch), and the basic rhythmic patterns of speech. At timeshe mayneed reminders of vocabulary usage,and control of volume, but he's "on his way." A u-n-vear-old Speech Clinic is likejv to show some crow-ins pains, some stabilization of program, and some promise of future development. As in the child with a speech disorder, a Clinic just doesn't "grow out of it." but responds most successfullvto the appropriate kinds of attention and guidance which will ensure its program's future. pected Attention and planning have been centered on three phases of the Clinic's operation. Since the first function of the Clinic was stated at the time of its establishment: to provide speech therapy for University students who had speechproblems, the Clinic has given priority to them. A screening test of speech has been given to over 5.000 University students. with recommendations to those students who could profit from individual or small group speech therapy, or from class work in Drama and Speech courses. Students who had voice problems, stuttering,articulation defects, or speech problems associated with cleft palate, cerebral palsy, or hearing loss have used the services of the Speech Clinic. The second function of the Clinic was to provide an opportunity for students majoring in the department of Drama and Speech to learn about speech disorders. There is now a major in speech pathology which leads to certification by speech therapist Janet Ciura.'59. works Student with art adult aphasic patient. They are using the Language-Master, a type of electronic equipment devised for providing samples of correct speech. The card shews the printed word and a picture of the object.

Studentshave the equivalent of two yearsof liberal arts subjects, as well as the specialized courses in speech disorders,phonetics, audiology, and clinical methods and practice. For the latter, opportunities are provided for students to work with clinic patients under supervision, and to secure their experience in other places such as the public school speech correction programs in Buffalo, Amherst, West Seneca,etc., at the Rehabilitation Centerof the Children'sHospital, the Veterans' Administration Hospital, the Roswell Park Institute, the Association for the Help of Retarded Children, and other agencies. The students' goal is two hundred clock hours of supervised speech therapy. Someof the alumni of this programare Darrell Cook,BA'52, who is pursuing graduate work at the University of Utah; Lenor G. Sherman, BA'56, present speech therapist at the Buffalo V. A. Hospital; Kenneth J. Knepflar, BA'52, who received his M.S. degree at the University of Utah, and is now speech therapist at the Southern California Schoolfor Crippled Children; Nancy Gunderman, BA'5B, speech correctionist in the Rochester public schools; Clarice Golanski, BA'57, speech correctionist in the Buffalo public schools. Ten students are currently majoring in this field at the University. The third function of the University Speech Clinic was to provide speech help for out-patients from the community. Facilities for speech therapy are extremely limited in the Niagara frontier area, so the Clinic has received many requests for help from physicians, schools, and agencies such as the New York State Vocational Rehabilitation Division. The kinds of speech problems have included cleft palate speech, aphasiaresulting from a stroke or other brain damage, loss of voice from laryngectomy, stuttering, and retarded speech development in young children. Special summer clinics have offeredconcentrated programsfor many of these people. The Clinic has also been the means of referring patients to physicians,otolaryngologists, audiologists, psychiatrists, and others. With a small staff, augmented occasionally by "importations" of qualified people for short-term help, the program has developed beyond expectations in some areas. As the ten-year-old child has daydreams of what he wants to be when s Hospitalprovides The Rehabilitation Centerof the Children training sources for University students speech therapy. Elaine Sitrin, '60. majoring in uses puppets to encourage speechfrom this cerebral palsied child. Bulletin 3 �he grows up, so the University Speech Clinic envisages a much-needed graduate degree program to help prepare people for the jobs which must remain unfilled because of the local and national shortage of trained speech therapists. Such a program obviously requires additional staff and space, but the benefitsin terms of research projects that could be undertaken further justifies its establishment. The development of improved equipment for use in speech therapy, such as recording equipment and amplification machines adds another burden to a budget. Fortunately, in 1958, a Language-Master was presented to the Clinic. This electronic device provides auditory and visual stimulation for speech therapy with children and with brain-damaged adults. The local chapter of theKiwi Club (a national organization of ex-airline hostesses), recognizing our need, and interested in aiding handicapped people, earned the moneyto purchase this equipment which they donated to the Clinic. In some ways the rhythm and pace of the Clinic's growth has been too rapid for the small staff to manage; yet, to labor the analogy, the Speech Clinic has been learning to "articulate" fairly well with other professional groups, and to shout or keep quiet at appropriate times (we hope).

HOW TO CREDIT THE AUTHORS by Dr. Thomas E. Connolly secondary, and tertiary authors The(hereafterreferredprimary, toas P,S,& T authors) has been a matter selection of of serious discussion since the European invention of printing from movable type, circa 1440.0 Under the former system of printing from engraved wood blocks,the idea of more than one author amounted to a logical absurdity. When an author had to sit down and whack out a treatise on some subject with sharp instruments,the hazards to fingers would be greatly increased if two or more pairs of hands swung hammers and chisels with reckless abandon at the same wood block. I rather agree with Morgan in Author/Author/*® who states: "This question never arose prior to 1440 A.D. because of the danger involvedin engraving wood blocks." It would be interesting to know definitely whether or not the publishing world of that era, faced with the threat of giving rise to a race of fingerless descendants,did not find in this problem the incentive necessaryto bring about the invention of movable-typeprinting. Conflicting Claims Among the Yodelers To date, no conclusive evidence has been uncovered to place definitely the first debate about the selection of P, S, & T authors. The question seems to have sprunginto existence coinstantaneously throughout Europe. In Switzerland,it became a subject of conversationshortly afterBerthold Ruppel introduced printing in 1472. However, since his initial effort was the reproduction of currentiy popular yodel calls, it was to be expected that there would be several claimants to the creation of each of the five or six calls that he reproduced. In a country as thickly populated with yodelers as Switzerland, it is not uncommon to find dozens of people who. in all good faith, are convinced that each one is the true originator of a single yodel call. Dr. Thomas E. Connolly is assistant professor of English at the University. He received his BS degree from Fordham University in 1939, his MA and PhD degreesfrom the University of Chicagoin 1947and 1951 respectively. Dr. Connolly taught at Loyola University in Chicago, the University of Idaho and Creighton University before coming to Buffalo in 1953. Oneof Dr. Connolly's most noted projects while at the University has been his compilation of the bibliography of the James Joyce Library. Dr. Connolly wrote this article for "Perspective " the CornellAeronautical Laboratory, Inc.,magazine, where he is technical editor for their Physics Division. Bulletin In Holland, theearliest example ofjoint publication occurred in 1473. N. Ketelaer and G. de Leempt were the first Dutch printers to place their names in a printed book of their own production. This fact has proved a point of much discussion throughout the years.Did they jointly write the book or did they merely jointly print it? The answer is locked in history. Spain had a comparative lack of equivocation over P, S, & T authors for almost a century after that country's first known printer, Lambert Palmert, started operating in Valencia in 1475. Lambert concentrated mainly on printinglaundry tickets and betting formsfor local bookmakers who functioned in the vicinity of the bullfighting arena near his shop. QuarrelsBegan with Newspaper Reviews? Thus we see that, although noone knows exactiy who started quibbling about precedence in authorship, the problem did arise sometime after man learned to print from movable type. This author has a personal theory, admittedlyscientifically insupportable, that the question did not arise until after the first crude newspapers began to include reviews in their pages. However, we find in Fothergill's "Civil Casesin England in the Year 1532"(3J the statement that in that year there were 51 suits in the English civil courts brought by secondary or tertiary authors against primary authors. In almost every case the courts decided in favor of the primary authors. Fothergill contends that the courts were influencedby the large type in which the primary author's name was usually printed. This, of course, is pure conjecture. In a subject of such wide scope and interest literallythousands of systems have been proposed and used. For the present purpose, the four most popular methods will be studied. The Alphabetical Arrangement Method is, perhaps, the oldest on record. As such, it has been exposed to more criticism than any of the other systems that have developedat later dates. This system is as simple as its name implies: the authors are listed alphabeticallyby last name, first name, and middle initial. An interesting case arose in 1893, when Aaron A. Adams, Sr. and Aaron A. Adams, Jr., both of Greybull, Wyoming, and both staunch advocates of the Alphabetical Arrangement Method, decided jointly to publish a paper on the History of the Ipswich SwampLegend. Adams,Sr. claimed that, since the rules in this method extended only to the middle initial and as 7 �they were both even to that point, parenthood and seniority governed, and he,Sr., should appear as primary author. Adams,Jr., however, presented a brilliant argumentclaiming that, implicitly, therule extended to titles following the name. He cited as precedent the case of Albert E. Jones; B.S.vs Albert E. Jones. Ph.D. (the men were first cousins, the Ph.D. being four years older). In that case, the publishing board of Upper Swarthmoreruled in favor of Jones. B.S. Adams, Jr. won his case, but. to us. the case has only academic interest, for the journal that had accepted the manuscript went bankruptshortly before publication and the article never appeared in print. The holder mentioned above may be used with the addition of a small gadget that sells for 50c. The Wild GeeseFlying or In-Order-of-Rank Method is, perhaps, the most widelyused system of selecting P, S, & Tauthors. It is quite simple in operation and presents a minimum amount of controversy. The Chief or Director of the unit in which the publication originates always appears as senior author. After him, the other authors and whoever else might be handy follow in order of position or rank, until everyone,includingthe office boy who carried the manuscript to the printer, has been included. Sometimesthe office boy merely receives an acknowledgment. Lower Half of Alphabet Suffers The Alphabetical Arrangement Method received its severest blow when Zachary Zimmerman obtained a writ of mandamus in the New York Supreme Court(4) restraining the publishing houses of that state from using this method. Judge Xenophon Yanz upheld his claim that the method was discriminatory and prejudicial to the interests of a certain class of individuals, viz.. the lower half of the alphabet. The Short-StrawSelectionSystem and the Coin-Flip Method might be simultaneously considered since they are essentially identical in principle. The only fundamentaldifferences between the two are the medium of selection and the limitation on the number of authors selected. The first differenceneed not be seriously considered,but the second difference does introduce certain problems. There is nocause for concern when only two authors are involved, but three or more authors complicate the picture. The Coin-Flip Method could conceivably be used when there are three authors; this system, however, becomes absolutely impractical with more than three. For three, the following method might be used. Ifthe coin stands on end. the one tossing it becomes senior author. The other two are chosen by heads and tails. Much time is wasted, however. I have known of a case that continued for 23 days beforeone author finallysucceeded in standing the coin on end. After that, the second and third positions were settled in short order. Two variations of the Short-Straw System are in use. As lengths many straws as there are authors are cut in graduated and are drawn from the hand of an impartial bystander, the shortest being the primary author and so on until the one who draws the longest straw is designated last author. Straw Holder Commercially Available A commercial firm turns out a handy little straw holder for use in case no impartial bystander is available. Itsells for $1.69 and holds up to ten good-sized straws/6) The other method is have all the straws but one the same size. The first one to draw the short straw is primary author. Then the remaining people re-draw to determine the succeeding authors. One straw (not the short one) is dropped beforeeach subsequentdrawing. to 6 The problem of precedence of authorship seems to have sprung into existence throughout the world shortly after the invention of movable type, and cannot, therefore,be attributed to any one class or group as a cultural trait as some authorities have implied. The author of this article has settled the problem for himself by always publishingindividuallyregardless of the importance of the contributions of others. Occasionally credit acknowledgments have been made, but only in those cases where physical violence would otherwise have been unavoidable. References 1.

Alumni �Dial M for Medicine """pHE annual Participating Fund for *" Medical Education, an extremely influential and successfulorganization in the field of medical education, was furnished a list of physicians placing the calls, as well as the physician to be called, with the idea that as soon as one call was completed the next would be immedi- thrown a challenge that would have set back on its heels a lesser group. Near and dear to the hearts of the executive committee of this fund was the establishment of a new department of Medical BioPhysics, one of the first to be established in any university in the country. Chancellor Furnas agreed to the establishment of this new department with one stipulation —that the fund agree to raise annually an additional $20,000 net to help financethe cost of the project. Members of the fund were already supplying the school of medicine approximately S90000 annually to support the teaching of the basic sciences. The executive committee agreed and immediately went to work. They hit upon the idea of along distance telephone campaign which would enable the 15 members of the executive committee to talk personally to approximately 700 alumni all over the country who were not yet Participating Fund members. Calls were to be made every other Friday during November and December,a total of four sessions,amounting to approximately 10 long distance calls per physician per session. Arrangements were made to install 7 outside lines in the development office and the aid of the phone company was enlisted. The telephone company was ately placed. Each physician called was asked to subscribe one unit of SIOO annually for : Bulletin the balance of their lives to the Fund. The executivecommittee member placing the call suggested to the prospect that he allow the pledge to be signed for him byproxy and a copy be sent the prospect for approval. As the time for the first telephone calls drew near, it was uncertain whether they would even make expenses. After all. long distance phone calls cost money, particularly when the coverageis to be nation wide. Results of the first afternoon dispersed all doubts. Of the 150 phone calls placed approximately one third signedby proxy and all but a few of the remaining requested that the card be sent and they would sign and return it. Outright refusalswere less than 10%. Competition was keen among the physicians, each trying to outdo the others in the number of new members brought into the Fund. The second series of calls were more successful than the first, with approximately 50%signing byproxy. Results to date of the four completed sessions;over $21,000 pledged annually with over $8,000 received in cash. Each day brings new subscriptions. Total cost of the telephone calls was approximately 91,000.Analyzed in other terms, it would require approximately a half million dollars invested to produce a similar an- nual income of 520,000. Why was this campaign so successful? For one thing the physicians making the phone calls were completely dedicated, believed in the product they were selling, and enjoyedwhat they were doing. There was a great deal of disbeliefon the part of the physicians being called that they were actually hearing from their classmates back in Buffalo. In almost every case there were questions asked as to how old friends were faring and what were recent developments at the Medical School. Also noted was the fact that almost everyphysician called knew of the good work being done by the Fund and had actually thought of eventually subscribing to this worthwhile project. Numerous news letters and other informational mailings had been sent to all medical alumni during, the last three orfour years, keeping them up to date on fund activities. Result: the public relations was excellent. Finally, the urgency of establishing, with a minimum delay, this new and vital department of Bio-Physics captured the imaginations of the physicians being called. Here was a chance to personally make possible a great new stride in medical research and education. This was an example of alumni devotion at its best. 7 �Dedication by John Steinbeck,Author of "Grapes of Wrath," "East of Eden,"etc. Reprintedfrom The Journal of American Medical Association npHE great critic Boileau said long ago *- that the only figures worthy of Literature areKings, Gods,and heroes. For today we must substitute for heroes those people who break free of a constricting pattern, who overcome insuperable difficulties, or who with inner courage or gallantry or determination resist pressures or drive through opposition or difficulty to a desired end. These are the heroes of our time —even if diey try desperately and fail —these,it seems to me are the raw material of Literature. A wise and cynical friend of mine 8 handicaps life as seven to five against. I think he is largely right, but when horses or men buck the odds and win—we have champions and we also have Literature. Perhaps also it reassures all of us that neither odds nor gods are all powerful. I think I have a good example of this in the creation of a doctor.

Were the Starkweather Murders Necessary? by Dr. Richard A. Siggdkow Dean of Students 12 Come time ago, 19-year-old CharlesStarkweather admitted murdering 11 persons. He did not even know most of the human beings he killed. A University of Nebraska criminologist explained that Starkweather represented "a totally defeated egowhich had no satisfactory anchorage in social life. Socially, he was simply an empty man. The only way he could become importantwas bykilling." How could this horrible crime, which brutally shattered the lives of so many innocent people, happen in America, in our time? Unheeded danger signals of serious maladjustment in Starkweather's life history were as obvious as a trippedburglar alarm in broad daylight. From early childhood he displayed belligerent, unco-opcrative attitudes toward authority. Due to inability to refrain from fighting, he was transferred to another school; one playground battle opened a gash in his opponent requiring seven stitches to close. He intensely disliked school. Retarded in reading, his academic record was poor and his work habits were ineffective.He repeated a grade. He was often sullen and unhappy. Children normally like school. When one does not, someone ought to look honestly and carefully —and quickly—for reasons why. His intelligence range,between 80-90. only suggests one possible cause for his difficulties. Any form of personality test—not needed in lightof the facts—wouldimmediatelyhave identified him as seriously in need of help. Most important is his history of rejection from first grade on. How well a person gets along with others as an adult depends on how he got along as a child. CharlesStarkweatherwas completely friendlessat every stage of growing up. All his life he needed acceptance and friends—and these he never achieved. Although the need to "belong,"to have friends, and to be important is usually considered most typical of teenagers,the tiny baby needs to feel that he is in friendly surroundings to form a solid foundation for becoming a happy, welladjusted person. Most children at all levels tend to be conformists,afraid of what is different. Group influence reaches its first peak with fourth-graders. Studiesreveal at this level that many unhappy, insecure, unsuccessfulchildren turn toward juvenile delinquency.A pupil may be "left out" because he is too slow or too bright, physically handicapped, or merely because he looks, talks, or dresses differently. And Charles Starkweather was different. Fellow pupils awarded him undesirable nicknames because of his small, rather grotesque figure. Strong glasses may have aided his weak eyesight but did nothing for his appearance. His early speech development was slow; he had a speech impediment. While in the primary grades, he underwent an ear operation because of hearing difficulty. What influence physical handicaps had on his subsequent general development and school record we, unhappily, will Alumni �Dr. Richard A. Siggelkow is Dean of Students and Associate Professor of Education at the Uni- versity. Formerly assistant dean of the School of Education at the University of Wisconsin, he served on thefaculty of that institution for ten years as a specialist in education, social and vocational guidance. He received his BS,MSand PhD degrees from Wisconsin with academic emphasis in education, journalism and history. Dr. Siggelkow is presentlyworkingon a beginningguidance textbookfor the classroom teacher. DR. RICHARD A. SIGGELKOW never know. Medical or psychiatric help at the proper time, coupled with assistance by a speech correctionist or understanding teachers, might have changed the tragic direction of this child's life. Much professional literature concerns adolescence,during which children become adults. Boys and girls carefully imitate companions of their own sex. Being accepted by others of similar agesand both sexes is of foremostimportance. Children unable tc/ attract friends of their own age level settle for those younger than themselves. Significantly, this 19-year-old youth's girl, and perhaps his only friend, was a mere child of 14. Adolescent tensions stem from worry over rejection. Nonconformity reflects itself in appearance, to include leather jackets and duck-tail haircuts. Obviously, all boys with ducktails are not in trouble widi the police. However, a high proportion of those in trouble follow the duck-tail fad as did ';zootsuiters" a decade ago.Youth takingsuch pains with their hair are clearly rebelling against something, setting themselves apart from human society. CharlesStarkweatherdisplayed these external badges of defiancetoward asociety which segregated him. Any rejected child tries desperately to achieve acceptance. Unfortunately, his effortsare often so awkward that he usually managesto widen the chasm between himself and others unless he receives real help from someone who knows how to bridge the gap. Repeated failure to recognize certain symptoms as a child's way of asking for help only forcesredoubled aggressiveness. He continues along the same path with evengreater determination in his desperate search for aid. We must be aware of the heartaches suffered by those who are not accepted,remaining ever alert to give outsiders the help they need somehow to enter the charmed circle. This victim was never permitted to escape from the role of a social outcast. Good schools provide learning experiences in which all children achieve a degree of success, so that potential Charles Starkweathers really do feel that they belong with their class. Recent eventshave caused concernover therole of our schools in the space age.We are correctly movingtoward higher standards and increased subject-matter emphasis. At the same time we cannotignore social and emotional problems of children. Bulletin We must find boys and girls who are seriously unhappy and the causes for this condition. We should search for pupils whose attendance records indicate difficultiesworthy of further study. Those whose problems arise out of personal handicaps, physical defects,language difficulties, or appearances can be helped. Sincerepersonal interest must be shown children consistently in trouble, as well as those who never succeed in their work. Pupils leaving school beforegraduation are often amongthe rejected. Greater effort must be exerted to find out the real reasons why children leave school. Did anyone consider that, when he quit, the only job Charles Starkweatherwas prepared to do for the rest of his life was the work of a garbage truck assistant? Our schools must accept a large share of responsibility for prevention of delinquency. Severebehavior problems today should have been identified and treated by specialists when in the beginning stages several yearsago.Certainly there are many happy, well-adjusted children who resemble CharlesStarkweather in background, mental ability, and evenin appearance who are not driven to achieve recognition through extreme antisocial acts. Classroomteachers need sufficient training at least to identify those children needing special help. But teachers alone cannotbe expected to deal with such problems beyond this point and still be held to their primary task of imparting treat subject matter. Any school that succeeds in making a child feelhe really belongs as a respected member of his groupreduces the number who grow up to be criminal or irresponsible. The value shows up even more in all the others—who would not be criminals anyhow—who take their places in the community as more competent workers,better citizens, and happier individuals. Admittedly, our schools are not presently equipped even to begin this assignment effectively. It is expensive to provide the required guidance, psychological, and psychiatric services,although this procedure is much cheaper than expensive court trials and expanding already inadequate prison facilities. One question remains: Can any community afford not to provide adequate guidance services for its children? 11 �Dr. Ernest Witebsky Named Dean of Medical School Dr. Witebsky will continue to serve as professor and head of the department of bacteriology and immunology in the Medical Schooland head of the department of bacteriology and serology at the Buffalo GeneralHospital.

The new dean is internationally known for his research in the field of blood and immunology, the department of biology that concerns itself with the study of immunity or security against a particular disease or poison. Dr. Witebsky has won many honors, including the Chancellor's Medal, and last July he was awarded an honorary medical degree from the University of Freiburg, Germany. Dr. Fred Snell to Head New Department of Biophysics A new department of biophysics has been created at the University's School of Medicine;—one of the few departments of its kind in the nation. Biophysics is concerned widi the study of the physical nature of biological systems and the human body in particular. The new department will launch medical research at the University in such challenging new fields as space and nuclear medicine. A top scientist, Dr. Fred M. Snell of the Harvard University Medical School has accepted the position as department head. He hold an MD degree from Harvard and a PhD degree from Massachusetts Institute of Technology. The biophysics department will be 14 financed by contributions of member physicians of die Annual Participating Fund for Medical Education. In announcing the new department, Dr. Furnas noted that the world is on the verge of a new era in understanding biological and physical phenomena. He stated, "We feel the second part of this century will open mysteries with fantastic results not only in understanding the human being but in benefits to the human race. We will be among the first to be privileged to open diese doors." The new department was hailed by Dr. Chester S. Reefer,dean of the Boston University Medical School, who praised the UB medical alumni for their "loyalty, vision and imagination" in supporting their school.

Bob Kirchberger chimed in with 12 points on the Bulls' home court. TheBulls swampedBrockport 70 to 56 as Dick Domkowski scored 12, Kirchberger 11 and Kurowski 10. U.B. scored its most one-sided victory of the season with a 63-38 win over Hobart at home. Coach Serfustini used all 15 men in the rout, with Joe Tontillo scoring 16. Ray Rosinski,a promising sophomore, scored his highest to date with a 14 point performance in ÜB's 70-62 victory over Buffalo State. Tontillo was again high for the Bulls with 16. In the next two gamesthe Bulls ran into an Ohio ambush. Dr. Len Serfustini must know how Dick Offenhamer felt about his lone footballdefeatat the hands of Baldwin-Wallace. The Yellowjackets repeated the performance against the Basketball Bulls. Buffalowas favored over Baldwin-Wallace butthe outcome did not make the oddsmakers look good. The Yellowjackets stung the Bulls 80-74 at their home court in Berea,Ohio. Kurowski scored well for Buffalo with 18 points. Domkowski had 14, Tontillo 12, and Shaper 11. TheBulls really got their fur ruffled in Akron, Ohio. The Zips handed the Bulls a 102-58 shellacking, in running their victory skein to 12 straight. Paul Mallon was high for Buffalo with 15 points. Akron, reputed to be one of the finest teams in die nation, showed all their power in this win. JOE TONTILLO With a loss to the Quantico Marines and a win over Ball State the Basketball Bulls finished third in the Quantico Marine Invitational Tournament. Beginning with the Ball Statevictory, Buffalo went ona spree of wins that included six straight. They returned from Virginia and journeyed to Cortland to defeat a tough Cortiand team 63-60. Dick Shaper and Joe Tontillo led the way for Buffalo with 18 and 17 points respectively. Perhaps the real hero was Howie Lewis who held Cortland's high scoring ace, Condi, to a mere 7 points.

Kowalski hails from Johnsonburg, Pa. He earned his co-captaincy the hard way. As a sophomore Stan fought for enough playing time towin a letter. At the beginning of last season he was just one of a number of guards. But he hustled all the time and by the opening game he was battling for a first string job.

Alumni �A not Fable by AESOP Once there was an old man with a weak heart who won fifty thousand pounds in an English football pool. His family, fearing that the glad news might prove fatal, called in the vicar to break it to him. "Now, John," began the vicar cautiously, "supposing you were to win one of these big prizes—fifty thousand pounds, say—what would you do with it?" The old man pondered. "Well, sir," he said, "to start with I'd give you half of it for the church." The vicar fell over dead. Of course, you may not have fifty thousand pounds to give to the Univer- sity. But, you can still help support your University in a most important way through the 1959 Alumni Loyalty Fund Campaign. Bear in mind that you who have cause to be proud ofyour University now have a means to implement and increase that pride. Your contribution will go a long way to help make the University an even greater institution.

Alumni �of all indirect influences in the development of our citizenry is the influence of a good teacher. .. Gerson The most potent THE TEACHER: OUR MOST PRICELESS NATURAL RESOURCE With the realization of the critical problems in the college teaching profession today, The University of Buffalo Alumni Bulletin dedicates its largest issue in Bulletin history to the College Teacher—1959. The center 16 pages of this issue contains a special survey dealing with the problems and rewards of the college teacher. The alumni magazines of 249 colleges, universities and private secondary schools throughout the United States and Canada are publishing this report. The total circulation of this survey is 2,250,000 copies. The survey was prepared by 19 alumni magazine editors from all types of educational institutions. Itssponsor is the American Alumni Council,an international organization devoted to increasing alumni support of higher education. In addition to the 16 page survey, additional pages have been devoted specifically to the teacher at The University ofBuffalo. In five separate articles the teacher of the University is highlighted in special areas. We have called upon the four vice chancellors to present this report. The fifth article consists of candid views of eight professors who are well known to Buffalo alumni. We consider this the most important issue of the Alumni Bulletin ever published. The problems, the questions, and the information presented in this issue should be of vital concern to all alumni. The alumni of our colleges and universities, as the products of higher education, must assume a primary responsibility of maintaining educational quality. The reputation of your degree and training is reflected in the high character of an important aspect of University responsibility: quality of instruction. We trust the following pages will enlighten you on the college teacher situation in America today and perhaps provoke your inquiries and action. Clifford C.

In the tion, toward attaining its goal. last six months Ihave attended three Even more important in the years ahead, is the need for intellectual capnational educational conferences. The most dominant impression I have ital. As urgent as the need for phys- — 4 ical facilities may be, the greater potential shortage is that of men and women to teach and to do the work of scholars. The University of Buffalo will participate with its sister institutions in themad scramble for faculties that all responsible educational leaders predict will occur over the next dozen years. What is the University of Buffalo? It is a beautiful 178-acre campus of handsome and functional buildings, tree lined walks, expansive lawns, parking lots, and playing fields. Itis 12,000full and part-time students. It is 23,000 alumni. In the most fundamental sense, however, the University is a group of men and women who have dedicated themselves to teaching and the world of scholarship. In short, the University at its heart is its faculty. Who are the faculty? Just over 1,500 persons have faculty appointments at Buffalo. In exact number, 494 are full-time and 1,036 are parttime. Four hundred, ninety-nine persons have professorial status (assistant, associate, and full professors). Of the entire faculty, 917 hold doctoral degrees (661 in medicine) and 199 have masters degrees. The largest number of the full-time faculty (180) hold their primary appointment in Alumni �the College of Arts and Sciences. Fulltime medical faculty number 118. Full-time faculty of theseveral other colleges number from 7 to 32. Normal turnoverat the University is about 40 full-time faculty per year. This is slightly less than a ten percent annual replacement. But this means that in ten to a dozen years the University will appoint the equivalent of a full-time faculty. This turnover is only part of the problem. If the University doubles its enrollment in a dozen years and doubles its faculty, an additional 40 to 50 persons will have to be appointed each year. And every other institution will be doing approximately what we will have to do. The questionis, how canwe maintain and improve this essential resource?One frequently reads that universities could solve their staffing problems if they become more efficient. These suggestions take several forms: (1) Stop building buildings and use the money for faculty salaries. (2) Increase class size and hence do with fewer teachers. (3) Ask professors to teach more hours and hence dowith fewer professors. (4) Restrict the curriculum offerings, hence increase class size and do with fewer teachers. (5) Do more teaching by television; provide for more independent study; use other devices that would eliminate the teacher in whole or in part. The University of Buffalo prides itself now on being a reasonably efficient institution. Its buildings are functional and heavily utilized— from 8:30 in the morning until 10:30 at night; nor can it avoid building more buildings if its enrollments are to increase. Its average class size, about 18-20, is higher than that of most comparable institutions. Many of its classes number into the hundreds. Its faculty has heavier teaching loads than are normal in universities that do a significant amount of research. It is giving conservative attention to the use of mechanical aids to teaching. The University gives and will continue to give continuous study to the efficiency of its operation and will effect all economies which are consonant with quality. But efficiency alone, along the lines described, will not solve our problems. The blunt fact is that the University will be more competitive than ever with other quality institutions, with business and industry, with government, and with professional service for the educated men and women who can teach. There can be no resorting to short range expediencies, panaceas, "make-do" measures, administrative persuasion, or other similar devices to solve our problem. The most important single factor in attracting faculty is the over-all quality of the institution. The University of Buffalo is a good institution. It must become even better if it is to continue to operate in the national market for faculty. Excellent faculty will be attracted by the quality of teaching and research done here. Faculty members wish, more than anything else, to be associated with other top quality teachers and scholars. Are salaries important? Definitely. They are, however, a necessary but not sufficient condition for a strong faculty. Faculties "do not live by bread alone.'' They do expect to have their share of this world's goods, not for luxury living, but to have enough to minimize economic worry, to participate in the culture to which they contribute immeasurably, to educate their children as they were educated. The University salaries now paid are about average for institutions of our type, but they must be increased. Our "fringe benefit" program is an excellent one and must continue to be kept so. In the end, our salvation as a quality institution with quality faculty is to have a flow of resources which will maintain a constantly improving institution. This we must have and expect to have. The University's intellectual capital is represented by the University Senate, the policy making body of the faculty. Bulletin 5 �THE TEACHER AND HIS ECONOMIC STATUS by Dr. Claude E. Puffer I ice Chancellor for Business Affairs anil Professor of Economics WERE CERTAINLY handed the dismal assignment," stated one of my colleagues when I informed him that I had been asked to write a briefpaper on the Economic Status of the Faculty. "All you can do is to say that faculty salaries are too low and that somebody ought to do something about it," remarked another faculty member with whom I spoke. There is no aspect of University life which gives college administrators more frightening nightmares, more ulcers and more biting offingernails than the problem of how to keep faculty salaries moving upward. The officers of The University of Buffalo are certainly no exception to this rule. Even as this Alumni Bulletin reaches you, they are enduring a period of anguish known as preparation of the 1959-60 budget. The anguish of all college administrative officers throughout the land is intensified by fears that we are not keeping abreast of the Russians in higher education, fears that the rate of inflation will increase ever more rapidly, fears that the rising number of students demanding admission to colleges will simply overwhelm us YOU 6 and fears that, as the demand for collegeprofessors increases more rapidly than the supply of them, only the richest universities will be able to hold or attract top-flight faculty members, leaving the less wealthy universities with a second or thirdrate instructional staff. Is there nothing at all hopeful that can be said on the subject of the economic status of the faculty? Has there been no progress? Ibelieve the answer is less unhappy than most people think. TWENTY YEARS AGO It is popular to begin analysis of the faculty salary situation with the academic year 1939-40. This was the last of about five years of relative stability in enrollment, capital investment and salaries in colleges. There was little turnover in faculty ranks, vacancies were few and rather easily filled with qualified applicants. It was a happier time for college administrators. Many of the senior faculty members look back on those years as pleasant and desirable. To see what has happened since then, let us examine one division of The University of Buffalo, the College of Arts and Sciences. We shall speak of salaries in a moment, but let us first call attention to the fact that the faculty members in that year were not bothered by the intricacies of a retirement system, group insurance, social security, Blue Cross, Blue Shield, major medical insurance or Faculty Tuition Exchange Scholarships, to name the chief fringe benefits now available to all. Instead,each faculty member was somehow expected to make his own provision for old age, possible illness, education of his children and income for his dependents in case of death. If we use index numbers to show the change in salaries since 1939-40 with that year as the base or 100, we discover that the average salary of Professors in the College of Arts and Sciences has risen from 100 to 241. The average salary of Associate Professors in that division hasrisen from 100 to 206; the average salary of Assistant Professors from 100 to 217; and for Instructors from 100 to 210. If there had been no inflation during this interval, the lot of the Professor would, indeed, have shown great improvement. But of course. there was inflation as everyone knows so well. Alumni �When adjustment for rising prices has been made, the gains in faculty income are not enormous gains, but they are still gains. If no other groups in society had received greater increases in purchasing power over the same period, the academic economic problem would not be as severe as it is today. It is common knowledge, however, that many, many other worker classifications, including factory workers, building trades, and ever so many others did make greater gains. Moreover, positions in industry and government requiring knowledge and skills comparable to those expected of faculty members outgained the academic profession. FRINGE BENEFITS Salaries alone are not the full story of any analysis of theeconomic welfare of the faculty. Our faculty member in 1939-40 was supposed somehow to save enough to take care of his own retirement if he retired at all. More likely he would expect to teach until his infirmities made it impossible for him to stand before a class. Since April 1, 1947, there has been in The University ofBuffalo a sound retirement system. Today the University contributes ten per cent of the salary of each employee, along with two and one-half per cent of that salary contributed by the staff member himself. The combined contributions go toward the purchase of an annuity which is the individual property of the faculty member and from which the University ofBuffalo never receives any refund. By arrangement with the Teachers Insurance and Annuity Association, half of these sums may be placed in an annuity backed by bonds and the other half by equities consisting chiefly of common stock. For those faculty members who were on the staff prior to April 1, 1947, the University pays a past service benefitfrom its own funds to make up for the period when no formalretirement system existed. All faculty members are covered by social security. This not only gives income in the years ofretirement, but also gives income protection for the widow or for children up to the age of eighteen. Between the annuity from TIAA, social security, and the past service benefit, no one who has Bulletin retired after at least ten years of service has received a retirement income of less than forty per cent of his average base salary for the five years prior to retirement. This is a good record in comparison with any retirement program in industry or in universities. All faculty members are covered by group insurance. Seventy-fiveper cent of the cost is paid by the University. The insurance is much larger for the younger members of the staff who may have young children and who have not yet made substantial savings through the building up of retirement annuities. All University employees are covered by Blue Cross and Blue Shield for hospital and medical bills. The employee is covered at University expense and he, in turn, pays for his dependents. In addition, there is major medical insurance which will provide up to $15,000 of additional assistance to meet the cost of prolonged illnesses for the faculty member or his dependents. Again the University pays the premium for the employee and permits him to cover his dependents at his own expense. When the children offaculty members are old enough to attend college, they are eligible for free tuition in most of the privately-supported colleges and universities in the land through theTuition Exchange Scholarship plan. If the child attends The University of Buffalo he is permitted to go ahead with his education at one-half the normal tuition rates. The dollar value of all these fringe benefits can be calculated for each employee. The sum will vary in relationship to the salary of the individual, but in all cases the sum is a substantial one. The value to faculty members in terms of peace of mind with respect to provision for old age, security for dependents in case of death, ability to meet the cost of long and expensive illnesses, and ability to educate children who reach college age, cannot of course, be measured just in dollars. It seems to this writer that we have come a considerable distance in the improvement of the economic status of the faculty. The professor of today who feels that he has lost ground in comparison with "the good old days" of 1939-40 should sp(end at least some time in reflection on how he would take care of the major problems enumerated above if we were once again to revert to the stabilized situation exemplified by 1939-40. There is no question at all that, at least in the sample that we are describing, progress has been made. MORE TO BE DONE Lest anyone jump to theconclusion that the writer believes that all is well and that no further improvement is called for, let me hasten to say once again, that far more needs to be donein the future thanhas been done in the past. Our problem today is to hold at The University ofBuffalo the most able of our excellent faculty who are continually being tempted by higher salaries in industry or being sought by other universities. An equally important part of the same problem is to attract into the profession the best of the bright young students and to have as many of these at The University of Buffalo as we can. The problem is not solved for either of these two categories by statistics showing that the economic status of faculty members is better than it was in 1939-40. It must be solved by providing somehow, an economic status that will be fully as attractive or more attractive than the next best alternative which is usually a highpaid position in industry or government. Unless we can attract and hold such able faculty members in our colleges and universities, the supply of young people with top-flight education will dry up because of the lack of top-quality teachers. The goose that lays the golden egg will, indeed, have been killed. It is, therefore, a matter of great concern to both industry and government that this supply of talent be maintained. Eventually industry and government will fully understand the necessity for support of high faculty salaries in colleges and universities. Our purpose is to chip away at this problem day by day, week by week, yearby year. You who are alumni do understand the problem. You can be of assistance in hastening the day of greater support from industry and government. Thank you for all that you do. 7 �THE TEACHER AND CAPITAL EXPANSION by Dr. Edgar B. Cale Vice Chancellor for Planning and Development and Professor of Political Science EARLY THIS YEAR, at an affair honoring a great American sage, Ben. Franklin.Chancellor Furnas lucidly stated the problem: "Keeping the doors of utsdom adcqu.itclv open is going to be a most difficult task in America. Our nation is probably always in some kind of a crisis, but we now have an educational crisis of major magnitude which will not go away." Dr. Furnas then proceeded to outline three basic reasons for the crisis. First, there is the basic fact of "population growth—explosive and unprecedented." The result is double sessions almost all the way up the education ladder. Secondly there is the "phenomenal advance of science and technology" which makes more education and training a requirement forevery modern citizen. The third factor stressed by the Chancellor is "international competition, particularly with Russian Communism" not just in the military but in industrial, economic, and ideological fields. So we find that to keep pace with the times education must be broader and deeper—for more students more comprehensively. 8 In considering the total educational problem, we must always keep uppermost in mind that "Colleges are for students." It is the human product which counts. Bricks and mortar, books and test-tubes, and teachers all are implements in developing the creative talents of students. The function of Planning and Development is to find adequate financial support for the total, long-range educational program. This includes teachers, buildings, libraries and laboratories. Just as the teacher is the first requirement of any educational system, first consideration should be given to providing thebest teachers possible. The University of Buffalo is demonstrating its belief in this principle by steadily improving the financial status of the faculty. We need to do even more to attract high caliber personnel to our campus. In fact, there is a great deal of catching up to be done in many areas of both staff and equipment in sister universities as well as U.B. A conservative estimate is that national annual expenditures for higher education should be tripled by 1975, reaching SlO billion per year. " — DISTRIBUTING FUNDS Sometimes when we think in terms of great masses—three million college students now, six million by 1975—we forget that our concern is for the individual student. The transformation ofpersonality through the educational process is a one-at-a-time affair. Furthermore, when we evaluate a great development program, it must be in terms of "developing" well-rounded individuals, equipped to be congenial citizens as well as trained brains. This poses the question which is argued heatedly in so many facultyclubs and committee meetings on American campuses: what are the top priorities in a fiscal plan? An analogy might be drawn between The University of Buffalo and a "poor but honest" working man who has little savings and is just squeaking by on his modest salary. First there is the grocery bill to be paid. In University terms this is equivalent to the current operating expenses of salaries, fixtures, and supplies 'including books for the library —a sine qua non of an educational operation.) IS Contittatd tm page Alumni �THE TEACHER AND RESEARCH by Dr. Raymond H. Ewell I ice Chancellor for Research and Professor of Chemistry WHAT PART does The Univer- sity of Buffalo and its faculty play in the nation's research effort? The United States now has about 300,000 professional people— physical scientists, biological and medical scientists, social scientists and engineers—engaged in research and development in universities, in industry, in government laboratories and in research institutes of various types. The annual expenditure in support of this research and development effort is about $9 billion or 2 per cent of the gross national product. At The University ofBuffalo there are about 250 professors and research assistants working part-time or fulltime on research with an annual budget of approximately $2 million. Therefore, U.B. does something like 1/10 of 1 per cent of the nation's research. By research is meant not only research in science, medicine and engineering, but also in social sciences, education, history, literature, languages, etc. Also, creative activities such as literary writing, music and the arts, should be included as comparable to research in these other areas. At The University of Buffalo Bulletin theresearch in these fields is directed almost exclusively by those teachers whose primary jobis that of teaching. In addition to their regular teaching loads, the university teacher feels that the research he does, made possible by the facilities available at a university, is just as important to him, his colleagues and his students as fulfilling his basic role as a classroom teacher. In many cases the research work is used to implement the actual teaching situation. The United States needs a large research program, in fact, we need a steadily increasing volume of research in all fields ofknowledge. Our country needs such a research effort for thesereasons: 1. To continue the economic development of the country, 2. To conserve and utilize more efficiently our natural resources, 3. To improve the health and longevity of our citizens, 4. To keep us on competitive terms with the Russians, and last, but far from least, 5- To discover new knowledge— justfbecause it is there and waiting. Why is it important for The University of Buffalo to play some part in this research effort? We could name many reasons, but one good reason, at least, is that a strong research program is a necessity for a first rank university. There are three principal functions of a university teaching, research and public service. All great universities are distinguished in all three of these functions, but research is the function that is the most unique in a university. There are many colleges that do an excellent job of teaching, but do little or no research. There are many organizations that render public services of the same type as those rendered by universities. This leaves research as the really unique function — ofa university. Most of the original research done in theworld during the past few hundred years has been done by teachers or under the direction of teachers in the universities of the world. In fact, to a first approximation, universities are the only organizations that really do original research which adds to man's knowledge. It is true that some original research has been on page 29 Continued 9 �THE COLLEGE TEACHER: 1959 �THE COLLEGE TEACHER: 1959 "If I were sitting here and the whole outside world were indifferent to what I was doing, I would still want to be doing just what lam." �I'VE ALWAYS FOUND IT SOMEWHAT HARD TO SAY JUST WHY I CHOSE TO BE A PROFESSOR. There are many reasons, not all of them tangible things which can be pulled out and explained. I still hear people say, "Those who can, do; those who can't, teach." But there are many teachers who can. They are teachers because they have more than the usual desireto communicate. They areexcited enough about something to want to tell others, have others love it as they love it, tell people the how of something, and the why. I like to see students who will carry the intellectual spark into the world beyond my time. And I like to think that maybe I have something to do with this. THERE IS A CERTAIN FREEDOM IN THIS JOB, TOO. A professor doesn'tpunch a timeclock. He is allowed theresponsibility ofplanning his own time and activities. This freedom of movement provides something very valuable—time to think and consider. I've always hadthefreedomto teach what Ibelieve to be true. I have never been interfered with in what I wanted to say—either in the small college or in the large university. I know there havebeen and are infringements on academicfreedom. But they've never happened to me. �THE COLLEGE TEACHER: 1959 I LIKE YOUNG PEOPLE. I REGARD MYSELF AS YOUNG. I'm still eager about many of the things I was eager about as a young man. It is gratifying to see bright young men andwomen excited and enthusiastic about scholarship. There are times whenI feel thatI'm only an old worn boulder in the never-ending stream of students. There are times whenI want to flee,when I look ahead to a quieter life of contemplation, of reading things I've always wanted to read. Then a brilliant and likeable human being comes along, whom I feel I can help—and this makes it all the more worthwhile. When I see a young teacher get a start, I get a vicarious feeling of beginning again. �THE COLLEGE TEACHER: 1959 PEOPLE ASK ME ABOUT THE "DRAWBACKS" IN TEACHING. Ifind it difficult to be glib about this. There are major problems to befaced.There is this businessofsalaries, of status and dignity, of anti-intellectualism, of too much to do in too little time. But these areproblems, not drawbacks. A teacher doesn't become a teacher in spite of them, but with an awareness that they exist and need to be solved. AND THERE IS THIS MATTER OF "STATUS." Terms like "egghead" tend to suggest that the intellectual is something lLke a toadstool—almostphysically different from everyone else. America is obsessed with stereotypes. There is a whole spectrum of personalities in education,all individuals. The notion that the intellectual is somebodytotallyremoved from what human beings are supposed to be is absurd. �TODAY MAN HAS LESS TIME ALONE THAN ANY MAN BEFORE HIM. But we are here for only a limited time, and I would rather spend such time as I have thinking about the meaning oftheuniverse and thepurpose of man, than doing something else. I've spent hours in libraries and on park benches, escaping long enough to do a little thinking. I can be found occasionally sitting out there with sparrows perching on me, almost. �"We may always be running just to keep from falling behind. But the person who is a teacher because he wants to teach, because he is deeply interested in people andscholarship, will pursue it as long as he can." —Loren C. ErsELEY T Ahe circumstance is a strange one. In recent years Americans have spent more money on the trappings of higher education than ever before in history. More parents than ever have set their sights on a college education for their children. More buildings than ever have been put up to accommodatethe crowds. But in the midst of this national preoccupation with higher education, the indispensableelement in education—the teacher—somehow has been overlooked. The results are unfortunate—not only for college teachers, but for collegeteaching as well, and for all whose lives it touches. If allowed to persist, present conditions could lead to so serious a decline in the excellence of higher education that we wouldrequire generationsto recover from it. Among educators, the problem is the subject of current concern and debateand experiment. What is missing, and urgently needed, is full public awareness of the problem—and full public support of measures to deal with it. A J.ere is a task for the college alumnus and alumna. No one knows the value of higher education better than the educated. No one is better able to take action, and to persuade others to take action, to preserve and increase its value. Will they do it? The outlines of the problem, and some guideposts to action, appear in the pages that follow. * �WILL WE RUN OUT OF COLLEGE TEACHERS? No; there will always be someone to fill classroom vacancies. But quality is almost certain to drop unless something is done quickly ■*"T THERE WILL THE TEACHERS COMEFROM? \A/ The number ofstudents enrolled in America's » » colleges and universities this year exceeds last year's figure by more than a quarter million. In ten years it should pass six million—nearly double today's enrollment. The numberofteachers also may haveto double. Some educators say thatwithin a decade495,000 may be needed —more than twice the present number. Can we hope to meet the demand? If so, what is likely to happen to the quality of teaching in the process? "Great numbers of youngsters will flood into our colleges and universities whether we are preparedor not," a report oftheCarnegie Foundation fortheAdvancement of Teaching has pointed out. "These youngsters will be taught—taught well or taughtbadly. And the demand for teachers will somehow be at least partly met—if not with well-prepared teachers then with ill-prepared, if not with superior teachers then with inferior ones." immediate is the problem of finding enough qualified teachers to meet classes next fall. College administrators must scramble to do so. "The staffing problems are the worst in my 30years' experience at hiring teaching staff," said one college president, replying to a survey by the U.S. Office of Education's Division of Higher Education. "The securing and retaining of well-trained, effective teachers is the outstanding problem confronting all colleges today," said another. One logical place to start reckoning with the teacher shortage is on the present faculties of American colleges and universities. The shortage is hardly alleviated by the fact that substantial numbers of men and women find it necessary to leave college teaching each year, for largely Most financial reasons. So serious is this problem—and so relevant is it to the college alumnus and alumna—that a separate article in this report is devoted to it. The scarcity of funds has led most colleges and universities to seek at least short-range solutions to the teacher shortage by other means. Difficulty in finding young new teachers to fill faculty vacancies is turning the attention of more and more administrators to the other end of the academic line, where tried and able teachers are about to retire. A few institutions havemodified the upper agelimits forfaculty. Others are keeping selected faculty members on the payroll past the usual retirement age. A number of institutions are filling their own vacancies with the cream of the men and women retiredelsewhere, and two organizations, theAssociation of American Colleges and theAmerican Association of UniversityProfessors, with theaid ofa grantfrom the Ford Foundation, have set up a "Retired Professors Registry" to facilitate the process. Oldrestraints and handicapsfor the woman teacher are disappearing in the colleges. Indeed, there are special opportunities for her, as she earns her standing alongside the man who teaches. But there is no room for complacency here. We can no longer take it for granted that the woman teacher will be any more available than the man, for she exercises the privilege ofher sex to change her mind about teaching as about other matters. Says Dean Nancy DukeLewis ofPembroke College: "The day has passed when we could assume that everywoman who earned her Ph.D. would go into college teaching. She needs something positive today to attract her to thecolleges because of the welcome that awaits her talents in business, industry, government, or the foundations. Her freedom to choose comes at a time when undergraduate women particularly needdistinguished women scholars to �inspire them to do their best in the classroom and laboratory—and certainly to encourage them to elect college teaching as a career." hard-pressed administrators find themselves forced to accelerate promotions and salary increases in order to attract and hold faculty members. Many are being forced to settle for less qualified teachers. In an effort to attract and keep teachers, most colleges are providing such necessities as improved research facilities and secretarial help to relieve faculty members of paperwork andadministrative burdens, thusgivingfaculty members more time to concentrate on teaching and research. In theprocess ofrevising their curricula many colleges are eliminating courses that overlap one another or are considered frivolous. Some are increasing the size of lecture classesand eliminating classes theydeem too small. Finally, somewhat in desperation (but also with the firm conviction that the technological age must, after all, have something of value to offer even to the most basic and fundamental exercises ofeducation), experimentsare being conducted with teaching by films and television. At Perm State, where televised instruction is in its ninth semester, TV has met with mixed reactions. Students consider it a good technique for teaching courses with Some large enrollments—and their performance in courses employing television has been as good as that of students having personal contact with their teachers. The reaction offaculty members has been less favorable. But acceptance appears tobe growing: thenumber ofcourses offered on television has grown steadily, and thenumber offaculty members teaching via TV has grown, also. Elsewhere, teachers are farfrom unanimity on the subject of TV. "Must the TV technicians take over the colleges?" asked Professor Ernest Earnest of Temple University in an article title last fall. "Like the conventional lecture system, TV lends itself to the sausage-stuffing concept of education," Professor Earnestsaid. The classroom, he argued, "is the place for testing ideas and skills, for the interchange of ideas"—objectives difficult to attain when one's teacher is merely a shadow on a fluorescent screen. The TV pioneers, however, believe the medium, used properly, holds great promise for the future. the long run, the traditional sources of supply for college teaching fall far shortof meeting the demand. The Ph.D., for example, long regarded by many colleges and universities as the ideal "driver's license" for teachers, is awarded to fewer than 9,000 persons per year. Even if, as is probable, the number of students enrolled in Ph.D. programs rises over the next For �few years, it will be a long time before they have traveled the full route to the degree. Meanwhile, the demand for Ph.D.'s grows, as industry, consultingfirms, and government competeformanyofthe men and women who do obtain the degree. Thus, at the very time that a great increase is occurring in the number of undergraduates who must be taught, the supply of new college teachers with the rank of Ph.D. is even shorter than usual. "During each of the past four years," reported the National Education Association in 1958, "the average level of preparation of newly employed teachers has fallen. Four years ago no less than 31.4 per cent of the new teachers held the earned doctor's degree. Last year only 23.5 per cent were at this high level ofpreparation." are some of the causes of concern about the Ph.D., to which educators are directing their attention: ► The Ph.D. program, as it now exists in most graduate schools, does not sufficiently emphasize the development of teaching skills. As a result, many Ph.D.'s go into teaching with little or no idea how to teach, and make a mess of it when they try. Many who don't go into teaching might havedone so, had a greater emphasis been laid upon it when they were graduate students. Here ► The Ph.D. program is indefinite in its time require- ments: they varyfrom school to school, from department to department, from student to student, far more than seems warranted. "Generally the Ph.D. takes at least four years to get," says a committee of the Association of GraduateSchools. "More often it takes six or seven, and not infrequently ten to fifteen.... If we putour heads to the matter, certainly we ought to be able to say to a good student: 'With a leeway of not more than one year, it will take you so and so long to take the Ph.D.' " ► "Uncertainty about the time required," says the Association's Committee on Policies in Graduate Education, "leads in turn to another kind of uncertainty— financial uncertainty. Doubt and confusion on this score have a host of disastrous effects. Many superior men, facing unknownshere, abandon thoughts about working for a Ph.D. and realistically gooff to law or the 1ike...." of the teachers in America's colleges and universities hold thePh.D., more than three quarters of the newcomers to college and university teaching, these days, don't have one. In the years ahead, it appears inevitable that the proportion of Ph.D.'s to non-Ph.D.'s on America's faculties will diminish. Nextin line, after the doctorate, is themaster's degree. Although rouohly half Z\ ■*- *" �For centuries the master's was "the" degree, until, with the growth of thePh.D. in America, it began to be moved into a back seat. In Great Britain its prestige is still high. But in America theM.A. has, in some graduate schools, deteriorated. Where theM.A.'s standards have been kept high, on the other hand, able students have been able to prepare themselves, not only adequately but well, for . college teaching. Today the M.A. is one source of hope in the teacher shortage. "If the M.A. were of universal dignity and good standing," says the report of the Committee on Policies in Graduate Education, ".. this ancient degree could bring us succor in the decade ahead.... is to get rid of 'good' and "The nub of the problem 'bad' M.A.'s and to set up generally a 'rehabilitated' degree which will have such worth in its own right that a man entering graduate school will consider the possibility of working toward the M.A. as the first step to the " Ph.D One problem would remain. "If you have a master's degree you are still a mister and if you have a Ph.D., no matter where it is from, you are a doctor," Dean G. Bruce Dealing, of the University of Delaware, has said. "The town looks at you differently. Business looks at you differently. The dean may; it depends on how discriminating ... he is." The problem won't be solved, W. R. Dennes, former dean of the graduate school ofthe University ofCalifornia at Berkeley, has said, "until universities havethe courage to select men very largely on the quality of work they havedoneand soft-pedal this matter of degrees." A point for parents and prospective students to remember—and one of which alumni and alumnae might remind them—is that counting the number of Ph.D.'s in a college catalogue is not the only, or even necessarily the best, way to judge the worth of an educational institution or its faculty's abilities. To base one's judgment solely on such a count is quite a temptation, as William James noted 56 years ago in "The Ph.D. Octopus": "The dazzled reader ofthe list, the parent or student, says to himself, 'This must be a terribly distinguished crowd—their titles shine like the stars in the firmament; Ph.D.'s, Sc.D.'s, and LittD.'s bespangle the page as if they were sprinkled over it from a pepper caster.' " The Ph.D. will remain higher education's most honored earned degree. It stands for a depth of scholarship and productive research to which the master has not yet addressed himself so intensively. But many educational leaders expect the doctoral programs to give more em- ... phasis to teaching. At the same time the master's degree will be strengthened and given more prestige. In the process the graduate schools will have taken a long step toward solving the shortage of qualified college teachers. of the changes being made by colleges and universities to meet the teacher shortage constitute reasonable and overdue reforms. Other changes are admittedly desperate—andpossibly dangerous—attempts to meet today's needs. The central problem is to get more young people interested in college teaching. Here, college alumni and alumnae have an opportunity to provide a badly needed service to higher education and to superioryoung people themselves. The problem of teacher supply is not one with which the college administrator is ableto copealone. President J. Seelye Bixler, of Colby College, recently said: "Let us cultivate a teacher-centered point of view. There is tragedy as well as truth in the old saying thatin Europe when you meet a teacher you tip yourhat, whereas over here you tap your head. Our debt to our teachers is very great, and fortunately we are beginning to realize that we must make some attempt to balance the account. Money and prestige are among the first requirements. "Most important is independence. Too often we sit back with the comfortable feeling that our teachers have all the freedom they desire. We forget that the payoff comes in times of stress. Are we really willing to allow them independence of thoughtwhen a nationalemergency is in the offing? Are we ready to defend them against all pressure groups and to acknowledge their right to act as critics of our customs, our institutions, and even our national policy? Evidenceabounds that for some of our more vociferouscompatriots this is too much. They seeno reason why such privileges should be offered or why a teacher should not express his patriotism in the same outworn and often irrelevant shibboleths they find so dear and so hard to give up. Surely our educational task has not been completed until we have persuaded them that a teacher should be a pioneer, a leader, and at times a nonconformist with a recognized right to dissent. As Howard Mumford Jones has observed, we can hardly allow ourselves to become a nation proud of machines that think and suspicious ofany man who tries to." By lending their support to programs designed to improve theclimate forteachers at their own colleges, alumni can do much to alter the conviction held by many that teaching is tolerable only to martyrs. SOME �WHAT PRICE DEDICATION? Most teachers teach because they love their jobs. But low pay is forcing many to leave theprofession, just when we need them most Tuesday evening for the past three and a half months, the principal activity of a 34-year-old associate professor ofchemistry at a first-rate midwestern college has centered around Section 3 of the previous Sunday's New York Times. The Times, which arrives at his office in Tuesday afternoon's mail delivery, customarily devotes page afterpage of Section 3 to large help-wanted ads, most of them directed at scientists and engineers. The associate professor, a Ph.D., is jobhunting. "There's certainly no secret about it," he told a recent visitor. "Atleast two others in the department are looking, too. We'd all give a lot to be able to stay in teaching; that's what we're trained for, that's what we like. But we simply can't swing it financially." "I'm up against it this spring," says the chairman of the physics department at an eastern college for women. "Within the past two weeks two of my people, one an associate and one an assistant professor, turnedin their resignations, effective in June. Both are leaving the field —one for a job in industry, the other for government work. I've got strings out, all over the country, but so far I've found no suitable replacements. We've always prided ourselves on having Ph.D.'s in these jobs, but it looks as if that's one resolution we'll have to break in 1959-60." "We're a long way from being able to compete with industry when young peopleput teaching and industry on the scales," says Vice Chancellor Vera O. Knudsen of UCLA. "Salary is the real rub, of course. Ph.D.'s in physics here in Los Angeles are getting $8-12,000 in Every ' industry without any experience, while about all we can offer them is $5,500. Things are not much better in the chemistry department" One young Ph.D. candidate sums it up thus: "We want to teach and we want to do basic research, but industry offers us twice the salary we can get as teachers. We talk it over with our wives, but it's pretty hard to turn down $10,000 to work for less than half that amount." "That woman you saw leaving my office: she's one of our most brilliant young teachers, and she was ready to leave us," said a women's college dean recently. "I persuaded her to postpone her decision for a couple of months, until the results of the alumnaefund drive are in. We're going to use that money entirely for raising salaries, this year. Ifit goes over the top, we'll be able to hold some of our best people. Ifit falls short. I'm on the phone every morning, talking to the fund chairman, counting those dollars, and praying." .. dimensions of the teacher-salary problem in the United States and Canada are enormous. It has reached a point of crisisin public institutions and in private institutions, in richly endowedinstitutions as well as in poorer ones. It exists even in Catholic colleges and universities, where, as student populations grow, more and more laymen must be found in order to supplement the limited number of clerics available for teaching posts. "In a generation," says Seymour E. Harris, the distinguished Harvardeconomist, "the college professor has lost 50 per cent in economic status as compared to the average American. His real income has declined sub- The �stantially, while that ofthe average American has risen by 70-80 per cent." Figures assembled by the American Association of University Professors show how seriously the college teacher's economic standing has deteriorated. Since 1939, according tethe AAUP's latest study (published in 1958), the purchasing power of lawyers rose 34 per cent, that of dentists 54 per cent, and that of doctors 98 per cent. But at the five state universities surveyed by the AAUP, the purchasing power ofteachers in allranks rose only 9 per cent. And at twenty-eight privately controlled institutions, the purchasing power of teachers' salaries droppedby 8.5 per cent. While nearly everybody else in the country was gaining ground spectacularly, teachers were losing it. The AAUP's sample, it should be noted, is not representative of all colleges and universities in the United States and Canada. The institutions it contains are, as the AAUP says, "among thebetter colleges and universities in the country in salary matters." For America as a whole, the situation is even worse. The National Education Association, which studied the salaries paid in the 1957-58 academic year by more than three quarters of thenation's degree-granting institutions and by nearly two thirds of the junior colleges, found that half of all college and university teachers earned less than $6,015 per year. College instructors earned a median salary of only $4,562—not much better than the median salary of teachers in public elementary schools, whose economic plight is wellknown. The implications of such statistics are plain. "Higher salaries," says Robert Lekachman, professor of economics at Barnard College, "would make teaching a reasonable alternative for the bright young lawyer, the bright young doctor. Any ill-paid occupation becomes something of a refuge for theill-trained, the lazy, and the incompetent. If the scale of salaries isn't improved, the quality of teaching won't improve; it will worsen. Unless Americans are willing to pay more for higher education, they will have to be satisfied with an inferior product." Says President Margaret Clapp of Wellesley College, which is devoting all ofits fund-raising effortsto accumulating enough money (sls million) to strengthen faculty salaries: "Since the war, in an effort to keep alive the profession, discussion in America of teachers' salaries has necessarily centered on the minimums paid. But insofar as money is a factor in decision, wherever minimums only are stressed, the appeal is to the underprivileged and the timid; able and ambitious youths are not likely to listen." PEOPLE IN SHORT SUPPLY: IS THE ANSWER? It appears certain that ifcollege teaching is to attract and hold top-grade men and women, a drastic step must be taken: salaries must be doubled within five to ten years. There is nothing extravagant about such a proposal; indeed, it may dangerously understate the need. The current situation is so serious that even doubling his salary would not enable the college teacher to regain his former status in the American economy. Professor Harris of Harvard figures it this way: For every $100 he earned in 1930, the college faculty member earned only $85, in terms of 1930 dollars, in 1957. By contrast, the average American got $175 in 1957for every $100 he earned in 1930. Even if the professor's salary is doubled in ten years, he will get only a WHAT �salaries is even more important than appropriating money for campus buildings. (Curiously, buildings are usually easier to "sell" than pay raises, despite the seemingly obvious fact that no onewas ever educated by a pile ofbricks.) For others, it has been a matter of fund-raising campaigns ("We are writing salary increases into our 1959-60 budget, even though we don't have any idea where the money is coming from," says the president ofa privately supported college in the Mid-Atlantic region); of finding additional salary money in budgets that are already spread thin ("We're cutting back our library's book budget again, to gain some funds in the salary accounts"); oftuition increases ("This is about the only private enterprise in the country which gladly subsidizes its customers; maybe we're crazy"); of promoting research contracts ("We claim to be a privately supported university, but what would we do without the AEC?"); and of bar- TEACHERS IN THE MARKETPLACE $70 increase in buying power over 1930. By contrast, the average American is expected to have $127 more buying power at the end of the same period. In this respect, Professor Harris notes, doublingfaculty . salaries is a modest program. "But in another sense," he says, "the proposed rise seems large indeed. None of the authorities has told us where the money is coming from." It seems quite clear that a fundamental change in public attitudes toward faculty salaries will be necessary before significant progress can be made. . the money is a problem with which each college must wrestle today without cease. For some, it is a matter ofconvincing taxpayers and state legislators that appropriating moneyfor faculty Finding gaining. "The tendency to bargain, on the part ofboth the collegesand the teachers, is a deplorabledevelopment," says the dean of a university in the South. But it is a growing practice. As a result, inequities have developed: the teacher in a field in which people are in short supply or in industrial demand—or the teacher who is adept at "campus politics"—is likely to fare better than his colleagues who are less favorably situated. "Before you check with the administration on the actual appointment of a specific individual," says a faculty man quoted in therecent and revealing book, The Academic Marketplace, "you can be honest and say to the man, 'Would you be interested in coming at this amount?' and he says, 'No, but I would be interested at this amount.' " One result of such bargaining has been that newly hired faculty members often make more money than was paid to the people they replace—a happy circumstance for the newcomers, but not likely to raise the morale of others on the faculty. "We have been compelled to set the beginning salary of such personnel as physics professors at least $1,500 higher than salaries in such fields as history, art, physical education, and English," wrote the dean of faculty in a state college in the Rocky Mountain area, in response to a recent governmentquestionnaire dealingwith salary practices. "This began about 1954 and has worked until the present year, when the differential perhaps may be increased even more." Bargaining is not new in Academe fThorstein Veblen referred to it in The Higher Learning, which he wrote in �1918), but never has it been as widespread or as much a matter of desperation as today. In colleges and universities, whose members like to think of themselves as equally dedicated to all fields of human knowledge, it may prove to be a weakening factorof serious proportions. Many colleges and universities have managed to make modest across-the-board increases, designed to restore part of the faculty's lost purchasing power. In the 1957----58 academic year, 1,197 institutions, 84.5 per cent of those answering a U.S. Office of Education survey question on the point, gave salary increases of at least 5 per cent to their faculties as a whole. More than halfof them (248 public institutions and 329 privately supported institutions) said their action was due wholly or in part to the teacher shortage. Others have found fringe benefits to be a partial answer. Providing low-cost housing is a particularly successful way of attracting and holding faculty members; and since housing is a major item in a family budget, it is as good as or better than a salary increase. Oglethorpe University in Georgia, for example, a 200-student, private, liberal arts institution, long ago built houses on campus land (in one ofthe most desirableresidential areas on the outskirts of Atlanta), which it rents to faculty members at about one-third the area's going rate. (The cost of a three-bedroom faculty house: $50 per month.) "It's our major selling point," says Oglethorpe's president, Donald Agnew, "and we use it for all it's worth." Dartmouth, in addition to attacking the salary problem itself, has worked out a program of fringe benefits that includes full payment of retirement premiums (16 per cent of each faculty member's annual salary), group insurance coverage,paying the tuition of faculty children at any college in the country, liberal mortgage loans, and contributing to the improvement of local schools which faculty members' children attend. Taking care oftrouble spots while attempting to whittle down the salary problem as a whole, searching for new funds while reapportioning existingones, the colleges and universities are dealing with their salary crises as best they can, and sometimes ingeniously. But still the gap between salary increases and the rising figures on the Bureau of Labor Statistics' consumer price index persists. CAN THE GAP BE CLOSED? First, stringent economies must be applied by educational institutions themselves. Any waste that occurs, as well as most luxuries, is probably being subsidized by low salaries. Some "waste" may be hidden HOW in educational theories so old that they are accepted without question; if so, the theories must be re-examined and, if found invalid, replaced with new ones. The idea of the small class, for example, has long been honored by administrators and faculty members alike: there is now reason to suspect that large classes can be equally effective in many courses—a suspicion which, if found correct, should be translated into action by those institutions which are able to do so. Tuition may have to be increased—a prospect at which many public-college, as well as many private-college, educators shudder, but which appears justified and fair if the increases can be tied to a system of loans, scholarships, and tuition rebates based on a student's or his family's ability to pay. Second, massive aid must come from the public, both in the form of taxes for increased salaries in state and municipal institutions and in the form of direct gifts to both public and private institutions. Anyone who gives money to a college or university for unrestricted use or earmarked for faculty salaries can be sure that he is making one of thebest possible investments in the free world's future. If he is himself a college alumnus, he may consider it a repayment of a debt he incurred when his college or university subsidized a large part of his own education (virtually nowhere does, or did, a student's tuition cover costs). If he is a corporation executive or director, he may consider it a legitimate cost of doing business; the supply of well-educated men and women (the alternative to which is half-educated men and women) is dependent upon it. Ifhe is a parent, he may consider it a premium on a policy to insure high-quality education for his children—quality which, without such aid, he can be certain will deteriorate. Plain talk between educators and the public is a third necessity. The president ofBarnard College, Millicent C. Mclntosh, says: "The 'plight' is not of the faculty, but of the public. The faculty will take care of themselvesin the future either by leaving the teaching profession or by never entering it. Those who care for education, those who run institutions oflearning, and thosewho have children—all these will be left holding the bag." It is hard to believe that ifAmericans—and particularly college alumni and alumnae—had been aware of the problem, they would havelet faculty salaries fall into a sad state. Americans know thevalue of excellence in higher education too well to haveblithely let itsbasic element—excellent teaching—slip into its present peril. First we must rescue it; then we must make certain thatit does not fall into disrepair again. �Some Questions for Alumni and Alumnae ► Is your Alma Mater having difficultyfinding qualified new teachers to fill vacancies and expand its faculty to meet climbing enrollments? ► Has the economic status offaculty members of your college kept up with inflationary trends? ► Are the physical facilities of your college, including laboratories and libraries, good enough to attract and hold qualified teachers? Is your community one which respects the college teacher? Is the social and educational environment of your college's "home town" onein which a teacher would like to raise his family? ► ► Are the restrictions on time and freedom of teachers at your college such asto discourage adventurousresearch, careful preparation of instruction, and the expression of honest conviction? ► To meet the teacher shortage, is your college forced toresort to hiring practices that are unfair to segments of the faculty it already has? Are courses of proved merit being curtailed? Are classes becoming larger than subject matter or safeguards of teacher-student relationships would warrant? ► ► Are you, as an alumnus, and your college as an institution, doing everything possible to encourage talented young people to pursue careers in college teaching? If you are dissatisfied with the answers to these questions, your college may need help. Contact alumni officials at your college to learn if your concern is justified. If it is, register your interest in helping the college authorities find solutions through appropriateprograms oforganized alumni cooperation. �EDITORIAL STAFF DAVID A.

In the matter of history this is especially so, for history is drama with a broad rangereaching from tragedy to farce.Is a more pedantic reason sought? Therewould be as many answers as teachers. My own, in part at least,would be that one teaches to open up to the rising generation an understanding of the great traditions in church and state which are theirrightful heritage so that they may be the more clearly aware of themselves and "the rock whence they are hewn, the pit whence diey are digged." Such an awareness helps them both to know the present and to faceit; or to paraphrase a saying of Cromwell's,"toknow what they fight for and to love what they know." . Charles M.

There are for each even when the field of is at stages study many occupational possibilities individual, narrowed down to one, sayengineering or science. In my case, I havebeen employed among others in sales,high school teaching, industrial research,and college teaching. I can honestly say that I enjoyed each job I ever had, but the work which has given me the greatest personal satisfactionhas been college teaching. There is nothing which gives me quite the "bang" as working with the great majorityof students who are earnestly endeavoring to learn and finding that I can help them to prepare for their lives ahead. Although there are other "fringe" benefits as well, they all add up to die same conclusion: I choose to teach because I obtain the greatest degree of satisfactionin this pursuit. Dr. Harry M. Gehman,Chairman,Department of Mathematics "\T 7"HY DO I TEACH? I teach because I enjoy teaching more than I enjoy anydiing else. VV I teach because I enjoydiscussing mathematical concepts in my classes. I teach because through my teaching I can assist students who are eagerto learn more about mathematics and its applications to knowledge in general. I teach because discussing mathematical concepts with my students has often enabled me to clarify my own ideas and has thus contributed to my own research. Iteach because I enjoy being associated with young students and older colleagues both dedicated to the pursuit of truth. I teach because I enjoy it. 28 Alumni �Dr. Marvin Farber.

IN MY life teaching seemed most desirable to me as a wayof living for a number of It will be sufficient to mention just three of those reasons: it offersan opportunity to influence other minds effectively, and so to participate in extending therole of reason in our world. It makes possible a substantial amount of research and the discussion of ideas under stimulating conditions, in contact with young minds and other scholars. Finally, I love to teach,a reason which includes everything I might wish to say. Dr. Willard H. Bonner, Professor of English BECAUSE teaching is important, congenial, and irresistible.

I teach language and literature because these subjects arc close to man's daily life, his need to communicate,and his need to express his profoundest ideas and feelings.

Land, Professorof Education WHY watching DID I CHOOSE university teaching as a career and why do I stay in teaching? The greatest reward in teaching, to me. is the excitement of working with students and them grow and develop toward greater use of their own abilities while they build for themselves some feeling of the joy of learning and assuming responsibility for themselves and for others. Teaching has also provided an opportunity to continue learning in an environment where learning is everyone's business. Finally, university teaching has offeredassociation with others of similar interests where each individual has opportunity freely to seek understanding while facing problems of concern to all.

(Varus was the poor soul whom Augustus sent to conquer the Westphalian ham-country for imperial Rome.) Bulletin 29 �THE TEACHER AND CAPITAL EXPANSION, by Dr. Edgar B. Cale (/ Continued from page Next the hypothetical family has to keep a "roof over their heads." Likewise Universities can not function either in the bright summer sun or in the wintry snow drifts. We stress this point because some cynics ask: why do you have to keep on building more halls when professors need higher salaries? The specialized nature of the teaching business does not permit "renting" office space. Occasionally a college acquires a hotel or apartment house and finds that it docs not resemble a dormitory except in superficial aspects. So college buildings must be built to specifications. Unlike the working man's home, construction —not renting is essential. However, The University ofBuffalo, which has no city or state tax revenues to depend on, has never been able to afford luxury items —extra guest rooms, you might call them. Our priorities are determined by crying needs. A few examples should make the point clear. This year, Acheson Hall of Chemistry will be ready for use, providing a long-needed replacement for outmoded facilities in Foster Hall. The schools of Nursing and Pharmacy, also in Foster, are eagerly awaiting the ground-breaking for the new Health Sciences Building, which will be a part of our unique health and life sciences center. At a recent public meeting at which plans for our Medical Center were being discussed, an angry citizen demanded the reason for our failing to turn out more doctors and nurses to serve in local hospitals. Evidently, he thought it was just a matter of speeding up the production line—as in a factory. We are glad college education is a slow and painstaking business, requiring usually four to eight years. The finished product deserves the greater esteem. Returning to the sloganot "proper balance" in priorities, may we cite that the various functions of the campus havehad due respect in recent improvements. In the past three years a new eleven-story "tower"residence hall has been added in what might be called the "living" department. Baird Music Building was completed as the first unit in the Fine Arts Center. Sherman Hall for Medical Research was added to the Capen Hall structure. On the other side of the campus —dedicated to the sciences—Hochstetter Hall was enlarged to accommodate the Physics Department and Acheson Hall will provide adequate chemistry laboratories. THE WELFARE OF THE TEACHER We find the argument coming back to us again and again; more should be done for the teacher. He is the catalytic agent that makes the whole thing work. A good teacher on the end of a log with an eager student on the other end can constitute a great educational system. So goes the argument. Let us grant that a Plato can do much to produce an Aristotle, but both of these learned gentlemen would admit that they were pretty frustrated by the lack of tools for exploring the secrets of the universe about which they speculated. Therefore, when yousay that "more should be done for the teacher," the immediate "amen" is followed by "Give the teacher masses of original sources and laboratories for original research and funds for basic investigations. As "man can not live by bread alone," teachers need a great deal more than higher salaries. A favorite subject of conversation in college halls is "the atmosphere for learning." Academic freedom and the so-called spirit of objective in- A teacher affects eternity, he can never tell where his influence stops 30 Henry Adams quiry are justly praised by almost all modern scholars. Certainly thesearch for truth must be unfettered. But the right atmosphere for progress in the arts and sciences is not just a piece of open sky over an expanse of green grass. In a medical school theright atmosphere may be a million dollar laboratory reeking with the odor of antiseptics. A group of history scholars may prefer the musty smell of yellowing "original" documents. And in our new Acheson Hall of Chemistry the atmosphere is to be made desirable by a vast system of ventilators which will protect researchers from poisonous fumes if they are generated. A common sight in our present overcrowded colleges is the sharing of a "private" office by five or six professors. This could hardly be thought of as the right atmosphere for either student conferences or study requiring concentrated thought. Upto-date colleges provide private offices for every teacher of whatever rank and in many cases private study chambers for scholars in libraries and laboratories. There seems to be little disagreement on the basic proposition that to make of a student "a complete man" requires a lot of everything, including grade-A teaching. Our problem is not so much the findmg of an exactlyright balance in apportioning funds as the finding of sources of revenue which may be utilized for the total need. That working man whom we described before as just scraping by with barely enough for food, clothing and shelter could hardly provide an atmosphere of culture for his family. Likewise, our oft-praised pioneer forefathers who spent long hours hewing logs and plowing fields had little time to sponsor symphony orchestras or even think out a better mousetrap. If the lamp of learning is to burn brightly and show the way to truth, it must have a rich supply of oil. Otherwise it shall flicker and cast evil shadows on the wall or go out entirely, leaving students in fearsome darkness. Alumni �THE TEACHER AND RESEARCH, by Dr. Raymond H. Ewell {.vntinutdfrom page 7 done by individuals, by industrial laboratories, by government agencies, in independent research institutes, and these efforts have added to the store of man's knowledge. But the vast bulk of what we call man's knowledge today was originated by the teacher in the universities of the world. Research is also a very important factor in the prestige of a university. In fact, research is probably the most important single factor in determining the prestige of a university, in causing it to be regarded as a first rank university. Harvard and the University ofCalifornia do not necessarily teach undergraduate curricula any better than Amherst or Reed College. But the former have worldfamous, highly productive research programs with outstanding teachers directing thisresearch and this is the principal basis ofthe prestigeof those universities. The college teacher is, and should be, extremely interested in the prestige of his Universitycaused by extensive research. This prestige may generally effect his status as a teacher through the association of research and in many cases may effect his salary status. This is not to imply that teaching is any less important than research in the overall university structute, but it is apparently true that research attracts more public attention than teaching does, and thereby conditions the opinion of the reading public regarding the relative rank or prestige of a university. This is especially true when speaking of the national reputation of a university, as contrasted with the local reputation, although research is undoubtedly a major factor in also determining the local reputation of a university. Again I want to emphasize that I do not mean to minimize the importance of teaching for that is the real heart of the university, but it is a fact of modern life that teaching, no matter how excellent, just does not have the attention-getting value of research. Research activity in a university can be measured by various yard- sticks, but probably the best yardstick is the production of doctorates, including Ph.D., Sc.D. and Ed.D. degrees. Since most of the research at a university is conducted by doctoral candidates under the direction of professorial advisors, the number of doctorates produced by a university is extremely important. The University of Buffalo during the seven-year period 1950-56 produced doctorates as follows: Education Natural sciences 16 per year (avg.) 8 per year (avg.) Social sciences and humanities 4 per year (avg.) Total doctorates 28 per year (avg.) In the production of doctorates during this period The University of Buffalo ranked 62nd among all the universities and colleges of the United States. Columbia was first with an average of 557 doctorates per year. In education doctorates U.B. ranked 26th, in social sciences and humanities 71st, and in natural sciences 78th. Therefore, we have a long way to go. One of the major aims of The University ofBuffalo should be to climb up to 30th or 40th place in the doctorate ladder during the next decade. The production of doctorates is not only a good yardstick ofresearch activity in a university, but it is one of the best yardsticks of the general prestige of a university and of its importance in the national scene. I would like to mention an example of the rise of a university from my own experience. The University is Purdue, where I was a student in 1925-1930 and a professor in 1937-41. Purdue started its first real research in the mid-19205, granted its first Ph.D. degree in 1927 and even in 1935 ranked only 56th in graduate work in the nation according to an article by Professor Walter C. Eells in the December 1957 issue of the Association of American Colleges Bulletin. Since 1935 Purdue has grown rapidly in many areas of graduate work and in 1957 ranked 16th in the nation according to Professor Eell's article. Therefore, it is possible for a university to rise quite rapidly in the scale of graduate work and research activity. There are many factors thatwould help The University of Buffalo become a really front rank university money, buildings, geniuses, Nobel Prize winners—to mention only a few. But a more active research program is certainly a prime factor in reaching this objective. The teacher inresearch is of major importance in achieving the goal of a first rank university. The teacheris the catalyst of theresearch programs. It is the teacher who contributes the basic ideas and directs the research work. The research accomplished under the genius and efforts of the teacher attracts other outstanding scholars to the university and also attracts money to increase endowments to raise the economic status of the faculty. Research needs the teacher, the university needs teachers and research. Without both it is not a uni- — versity. It is a luxury to learn; but the luxury of learning is compared with the luxury of Teaching r. d. Hitchcock Bulletin not to be 31 �/ care not what is taught if Only it is taught we11... Thomas Huxley THE TEACHER AND THE STUDENT h\- Anthony Drake Senior. College of Arts and Sciences. Managing Editor of the Spectrum and Member of the Student Judiciary npHE MOST IMPORTANT sin- I gle quality of a teacher is his ability to teach. There are too many teachers armed with all the necessary degrees who fail to present their lessons in a clear, concise and convincing manner. Students and alumni are familiar with the professor who recites in a monotone from a series of texts and reference books; or the professor who spends an hour presenting his lecture to the top of the lectern in a barely distinguishable mumble. The lectern receives little information from this privileged intercourse, and it is doubtful if the students are enlightened at all. Many students would prefer to sit at home with the text rather than suffer in a stuffy classroom in an attempt to keep awake. Regardless of the intellectual keenness of such an instructor, he is the bane of the lecture hall. Students realize that professors are hired on the basis of their knowledge of material and ability to present it capably. Very few expect their professors to be employed on the basis of a buoyant personality and a pleasing smile. They do not expect instructors to be comedians or professional gladhanders. A professor who maintains a stern and dignified exterior will rarely sufferby comparison with a frustrated Harpo Marx. 32 No student expects his professor to be "one of the boys." Yet, no one likes to have the unapproachable teachers. The student can derive a great deal of satisfaction and instruction from informal sessions with faculty members, and this is something that even the busiest instructor would do well to encourage. Most students tend to prefer a professor who exhibits a personal interest in them and their progress, but few demand or even expect thathe be a combination father confessor and den mother. Students have great respect and appreciationfor a professor who exhibits respect and appreciation for their efforts. The subject of grades is a touchy one. While students may publicly revile a hard grader, they will nonetheless admire him if he is fair. What constitutes the difference between a fair grader and an unfair one is difficult to discern. Fraternities have lists ofprofessors noted for being easy graders and lists of persons whose courses it is just as well to avoid. It cannot be denied that what passes for an "A" with some professors hardly rates a "C" in another's grading system. Much of the hectic confusion during registration is due to the frantic scurryings of panicked students who have discovered that they have pulled a professor who is a notoriously unsympathetic grader. Students would appreciate more uniformity of standards in this respect. Students like to see professors taking an active interest in school activities, but do not insist upon it. To see an instructor at a football game or acting as faculty advisor to a student group, contributes a sense of community whkh cannot be captured in the more formal classroom situation. Most students realize the priority of other matters in the professor's life and will not demand this extra-curricular participation. If, however, a professor does decide to serve as a student activity advisor, they will expect him to devote his whole-hearted attention to it and will resent any slighting or indifferent attitude to what they regard as their proper requests. Currently one reads books and articles from authorities who flay each other for advocating teaching ability versus the importance of factual background. Actually, both of these positions contain merit. The university professor has the double duty of knowing his material and being able to present it adequately. This, basically, is all the mature student requires from his professor and his respect for the true "educator" will reflect the instructor's competence in these two basic requirements.

Heidenburg, BA '49, EdM Editor '51 Alumni Day was especially entertaining to the children. The following pages point out many of the highlights of this popular alumni activity. Alumni �ALUMNI DAY U.B. Audit-Visual THE 1959 Alumni Day, Saturday, June 6, proved conclusively that each year this event is going to get bigger and better. Approximately 1000 alumni, their families and friends turned out on a beautiful sundrenched day to take part in all or a portion of the varied activities. The "Alumni College" attracted over four times the number of people this year. Registration for the three lectures totaled over 200. Dr.. Marvin Farber, distinguished professor of philosophy and chairman of the department of philosophy, received a standing ovation after his lecture on "Existentialism." Dr. John T. Horton, BA'26, professor of history and chairman of the department of history and government and Henry Lee Smith, professor of linguistics and English and chairman of the department of anthropology and linguistics lectured to a full house in the Tower's skyview dining room. An athlete-scholar award was presented for the first time by the Alumni Association to a deserving senior who compiled a high scholastic average and excelled on the athletic field. The first recipient of this award was Charles Tirone, an outstanding guard on Dick Offen- hamer's Lambert Cup football team. Tirone was a dean's list student during his four years on campus. The children's section of the program was as active as ever with only one noticeable change; there are more children each year. Pony rides, carousel, fire engine rides, swimming and baseball kept the kids busy. Another innovation was the conducted tour. This year, through the courtesy of Kelly Volkswagon Service, the touring entourage were driven about the campus with full view of the buildings through the adequate window space in the "wagon." As usual, in an expandinguniversity, there was ground to break for a new building. This year it was the Health Sciences Building. Along with the ground breaking ceremonies were awards for distinguished service to outstanding alumni. The TUNK area was more bustling than ever thanks to a wonderful performance by an eight piece "German Band" that played for more than three hours. In addition to furnishing the entertainment in the tent they also led the parade to and from the ground breaking ceremony near Capen Hall. The Day's activities were climaxed by the annual General Alumni Board dinner at the Saturn Club and the Alumni Dance at the University Club. Bulletin 3 �U.B. AmJm-I'umm!

Captain of both the football and wrestling teams as an undergraduate, he later employed his prowess to coach the University Freshman football teams. So close has our honored Alumnus been associated with the University for the last twenty-five years, that we imagine a day seldom ends without his having seriously considered the needs of his Alma Mater. In 1936, he was elected Alumni Representative to the Athletic Council and in 1951 and 1952. he was President of the Athletic Council. He served as a member of the University CentennialCommittee in 1947 and the Development Committee in 1952. Again in 1958he was drafted for service—this time as Chairman of the Alumni Division of the Development Campaign. A past President of the General Alumni Board, he still acts as a member of the Board's Executive Committee and serves as Chairmanof the Leadership Scholarship Committee. Since 1950. when he joined the Council of the University, he has been very active on im- portant Committees,including the General Administration Committee and the Buildings and Grounds Committee. Our distinguished Alumnus has brought honor to the University and to himself through many acts of patriotic and civic service. Examples are his work as a member of the War Production Board in World War II and his recent chairmanship of the Mayor's Full Employment Committee in Buffalo. Currently he is President of the Better Business Bureau and a member of the Board of Directors of the Boys Club of Buffalo. His business enterprises rangefrom the presidency of his own company to directorship in a number of well-known industrial firms. However, after reviewing all these accomplishments, we must express our greatest esteem and affection for this Alumnus for his warm and generouspersonality which inspires faith and good fellowship wherever he goes. It is fitting, therefore,that the General Alumni Board of The University of Buffalo presents its highest honor—The Samuel Paul Capen Alumni Award —to a great-hearted and distinguished alumnus.

Furnas while the citations were read by Dr. Merton W. Ertell, dean of the University College. ROBERT MOSES "Finding a bachelor of arts at Yale too limiting, Mr. Moses earned another BA at Oxford and a PhD at Columbia before he started his picturesque career, the end of which, happily, noone can foresee. "During his programsof construction of great public works he has warred with politicians of all camps, and battle scarred though he is from skirmishes with Shakespeareans and Indians, he retains his verve, his vitality and his prose style. "Defeated rarely, daunted never, Mr. Moses has served his city, his state, and his country with generosity and intelli- 10 gence;children for many generations to come will find their lives enriched by the range of his imagination and the extent of his accomplishment." In presenting the award. Dr. Furnas called Mr. Moses '"planner, conservationist, creator, great citizen of the city and the state of New York, and now sharing your talents with the Niagara Frontier." DR. FOSDICK The citation naming Dr. Fosdick said: '"His name a household word in this city. Dr. Fosdick was born in Buffalo in 1878, the son of the late Frank S. Fosdick,once principal of the high school which now bears his name. "Dr. Fosdick's three earned degrees, from Colgate, the Union Theological Seminary, and Columbia, sparkle faintly in the constellation of honorary degrees which has signalized his eminence as teacher and scholar,preacher and pastor. ""He is best known to the laity for the perception and serenity of his sermons; he is no less respected by his colleagues for his profound work on the theology of the Old Testament. ""And he has earned the gratitude of many vestries for his noble teaching of practical theology for 20 years at Union Theological Seminary—awork he carried on in addition to his duties as preaching pastor at the First Presbyterian Church in New York and later as minister to the Park Avenue Baptist Church—now named the Riverside Church, where he is pastor emeritus." DR. BAILAR Dr. Bailar was honored as: "The son of a professor of chemistry, and the teacher, associate and friend of chemists, Dr. Bailar has guided more than half a hundred students to the PhD degree. "Now president of the American Chemical Society, which numbers 75,000 members, indefatigable speaker on behalf of science, has yet managed to be a consultant to industryand, more notable, to accomplish distinguished research. "He is currently engaged in co-ordination polymers which, translated to the layman, means that he is working on these plastics which will withstand high temperatures: Perhaps Dr. Bailar's efforts will enable us more quickly to reach the moon." DR. GIBBON Gibbon, the University said: "Born in Philadelphia, bachelor of arts at Princeton at the age of 19, and doctor of medicine at Jefferson Medical College in Philadelphia at the age of 23. Dr. Gibbon interned at Pennsylvania Hospital where he soon impressed his associates with his rare gifts and his great Honoring Dr. promises. "He has kept his promises, and he has developed his gifts. A pioneer in the surgeryof the heart and lungs, famousfor his work on the modern extra corporeal pump oxygenator on which open-heart operations depend. Dr. Gibbon has been honored by his colleagues with the high office of president in surgical societies in America and an honorary fellowship in the Royal Society of Surgeons in England. "Independent to the point of foolhardiness, he is still a Democrat in Pennsylvania, a tennis player, and a farmer." MISS BEACH Miss Beach was honored as "An American citizen wearing the French Legion of Honor, Miss Beach has lived since the end of the first World War in Paris.

Fall Football Outcome Hinges on Many Ifs by CHUCK BURR, Director of Sports Publicity The University ofBuffalofootball Bulls should be "very tough" in 1959. That was the consensus amongobservers of the Blue-White scrimmage that culminated spring practice last May 2. How tough is very tough? That depends upon whom is asked the question. To Coach Dick Offenhamer, "very tough" means about the same as last year. (Ed. note—It is happily remembered the 1958 U.B. team won 8 and lost only one in the process of capturing the Lambert Cup, emblematic of small college supremacyin the East.) To qualified lay observers,ie. reporters, radio and TV broadcasters, long time followersof the Bulls, "very tough" has an entirely different connotation. To them it prophesies a stronger ball club than last year—a team with more overall speed, size, depth and experience. Of course, coaches are noted for their extreme conservatism just as reporters are inclined along overly enthusiastic lines when they engagein that cheerful nonsense exclusive to sports Americana long range forecasting. Somewherebetwixt and between Offenhamers comparative pessimism and the reporters unqualified optimism should lie the true expectations of the U.B. football Bulls next fall. The objectively discerning fan will recognize this and draw a fairly accurate conclusion thatthe Bulls will be better than their coaches believe although not quite as powerful as the writers and spielers will ultimately predict for publication. A sweeping generalization of the team indicates an abundance of backfield strength in depth —a very happy situation that has not existed heretofore.At quarterback, for instance,U.B. has no fewer than five pretty fair hands —four with good varsity experience; the other, soph GeneGuerrie, already touted as the finest passer to have "come down the pike" since Hector was a pup. Gord Bukaty, slightlysensational at the end of last year, returns as a junior. Last season's experience will rank Bukaty among the very best in the East—large or small college. Then there is junior Joe Oliverio. — 14 who threw three TD passes in the BlueWhite embroilio, senior Fred Kogut and senior Jim Allegretto. Allegretto was a first stringer two seasons ago and in last year's rout of Columbia, came off the bench to direct the Bulls' devastating second half attack. And finally, Mr. Guerrie—6T—l7s pounds of passing, running and defensive wizardry—who may be just too good to be true. At halfback, the situation is equally impressive. Willie Evans, the team's leading overland ground gainer, will be back for his senior campaign. With designs on a pro career—Whistlin' Willie is determined "to make it big." Skip Maue— breakaway back extraordinary, Steve Salasny and Paul Szymendera. a couple of powerhouse, short-yardage runners, won their letters and plenty of complimentary prose last season. They'll return. Leave us. also, not forget sophomores Wes Wertman and Ron Clayback, both of whom looked so good as freshmen last year and in the spring practice grind. Ifthe above fails to impress as to number, size and ability—consider the Bulls will have Bill Brogan operating at halfback in 1959. The injury prone Brogan, who never had a real chance to live up to his reputation as the Bulls best defensive back and most powerful runner, figures to be hale and hearty come September following summer foot surgery. And. of course, Brogan is a pro grade kicker. He represents proof positive the quick kick can be an offensive weapon as well as a defensivesalvation. (Ask Harvard). At fullback, veterans Tom Mac- Dougall and Gerry Gergley have made it possible for Offenhamer to switch Brogan to halfback. Both came along beautifullyas sophomores in 1958. — AJong the internal line, the Bulls even according to Offenhamer—should be better than averagedespite some serious graduation losses. Co-captain Lou Reale, Jack Welch, Chuck Tirone and Joe O'Grady are gone. Nevertheless there remains plenty of experience, size. speed, mobility and depth. Bernie Fagan and Co-captain Sam Sandersat tackle are backed by lettermen Jack Dempsey and George Delaney. A couple of 220-pound sophomores. Ed Mooradian and Bob Miller, will also be on hand—chock full of potential, although in need of actual game experience to bring it out. Co-captain Stan Kowalski and Joe Shifflet, a couple of hard-rock Pennsylvanians. can be more than adequately spelled at guard by veteran returnees Bob Yanchuk and Phil Bamford. A couple of tough sophs John Hartman and Bill Roof will also do much to take up the slack caused by the departure of Tirone and O'Grady, two stalwarts at guard last year. Ray Paolini, Chuck Scott and soph Lucian Lodestro, most valuable frosh lineman in 1958,will ease the pain of the loss of Reale. Now to the debit side of the ledger. "Yes, Mabel, there is a debit side." The Bulls are in trouble at end. Co-Captain Nick Bottini and Dave Brogan, last season's fine first stringers are gone. Only Cariey Keats and Bob Adams have experience, although Bill Beckerich sawsome action last season and showed well this past spring. The rest of the end corps is completely without experience and, to make matters infinitely worse, there are not too many of them. Transfer student from Notre Dame, John Powley, Nate Bliss, out last year with an injury, and sophomores Bob Ranus and Joe Barke must prove themselves under fire. Until they do. the Bulls will continue to be in deep trouble at the flanks. Therein, possibly, lies the basis for Offenhamer's conservatism. To further belabor that trite old saw about the chain and its weakest link; "a football team is never stronger than its weakest position." And the Bulls' ends are weak. Between now and the start of the campaign, September 26 against Temple, Offenhamer and staff will devote much of their overtime hours to strengthening the ends. If they are successful, the Bulls will be mighty hard to stop as they dig in to defendthe Lambert Cup. Alumni �A Report on The University of Buffalo's 1959 football schedule includes five holdovers from 1958 and three newcomers comprise the list of opponents to date. Temple, Bucknell, Baldwin-Wallace, Cortland and Western Reserve were all played and with the exception of B.W.—defeated last year. Rhode Island, Gettysburg and Marshall are the strangers who will be making their first appearances on the U.B. schedule in at least the past several seasons. TheBulls have not tangled with either Gettysburg or Marshall heretofore. Rhode Island and U.B. enjoyed a short two-game series in 1949-50 with the Bulls winning both games. The 1959 Football — Schedule Rhode Island, Gettysburg and Marshall replace Harvard, Columbia and Lehigh on the schedule. The latter threesome, all of whom contributed substantially to U.B.s impressive 8-1, Lambert Cup winningrecord in !958 were "prestige" schools the Bulls "hated to lose." However, as Athletic Director Jim Peelle points out ; ';we knew we could play Harvard and Columbia only under a one-yeararrangement in 1958. We are very hopeful we wiil be able to schedule either one or both for a longerperiod of time starting in the early 19605. And most certainly, we would welcome LeContinued on nextfagt Season Tickets Ready for Sale Dear Alumnus: It may seem incongruous to write of football in the middle of summer. Nevertheless,in a little more than one month, our championship University of Buffalo football Bulls will open training for their rugged 1959 season. And this fall should be a most exciting one football-wise as Dick Offenhamer's team fights to defend the Lambert Cvp won in such brilliant fashionin 1958. U.B. will play five home games this season. (Dates and opponents are listed below.) The schedule and the expected strength of our Bulls portend some of the finest, most thrilling football ever seen in Western New York. As you are undoubtedly aware, a definite seating problem exists at Rotary Field, on campus, where all home games will be played. The demand for reserved seats is, once again, sure to exceed the — supply. The University of Buffalo desires to accommodate its loyal alumni with the best available locations of seats.

Peelle explained the late release of the schedule as well as the fact that only eight gameshave been made final to date. "'lt's one of those things that often happens when a school's athletic program is on the upswing. We didn't have any idea we would be as far advanced so soon. Certainly, no one expected Coach Dick Offenhamer to win the Lambert Cup or to come up with a record of eight and one." '"As a consequence, a couple of schools previously signed, requested to be released from their contracts. And a couple of others we had hoped to play in 1959, suddenly lost interest." '"In Gettysburg, Marshall and Rhode Island, we will play three very tough opponents. All three play excellent crowd-pleasing football and the best part of it is we were able to schedule all of them as home games." liWe certainly do not anticipate we will have a late schedule release evenyear," said Peelle. "We have only one date open in 1960and three in 1961."' Peelle refused to mention names of schools alreadysigned for 1960and 1961. but he admitted the 1960 schedule alone "will surpass in attractiveness any schedule in the history of U.8., including 1958." A Report on Spring Sports The University of Buffalo has closed, for practical purposes, an artistically successfulintercollegiate spring sports schedule. The baseball tennis and track and field Bulls—among them won 25 game matches and meets while losing only nine. Additionally, the track team,which had a dual meet mark of five and two, won its Annual Invitational affair involving seven colleges and universities. Coach Jim Peelle's baseball team opened with a blazing burst. The Bulls wracked up nine straight victories before losing their first game—anextra inning thriller to Brockport. CatcherRon Pajak led the team in batting with a .377 average. Close behind were outfielder Bob Adams and first baseman Bill Monkarsh at .368 and .367 respectively. Adams and Monkarsh were the big R. 8.1, men with 19 and 15 respectively. Southpaw Irv Brody was the pitching stopper. The Bulls also got a lot of mound mileage from JimAllegretto and lefty Gary Fries. Highlight of the tennis season. Bill Sanford's 11 as coach,was a 5-4 victory over Syracuse. It marked the Bulls' first victory over the Orangemen in the history of their competition. Leon Smith and Mickey Graver, numbers one and two singles respectively, will compete in the Eastern Intercollegiate Lawn Tennis Championships at Colgate in early June. Track appears on the upswing after some lean seasons. Emery Fisher's crew rang up the top U.B. record in quite a spell and prospects for the future are bright. Ken Becker, whom Fisher calls the best distance man he has ever had at 16 U.8., will be graduated come another spring, but the amazingly versatile Paul Amato, who scored points in six events throughout, will be back as will pintsized Izzy Perlman,a 10-secondhundredyard dash man, pole vault star Mike Eggert, Rick Dußois, a rapidly improving hurdler, weightman Sam Sanders and broad jumper Willie Evans.

Dunlap has accepted a position as defensive backfield coach under Lefty James at Cornell University. Deming is a 24 year old native of Ilion, N. Y. and a 1957 graduate of Colgate University. After graduation he moved to the University of Houston to join his Colgate coach, Harold Lahar, who had goneto Houston after the 1957 season. In two seasons at Houston, Deming was chief scout, movie editor and recruiter in addition to helping Lahar and the head freshmancoach. After being hired as freshmancoach, Deming was tabbed by Dick Offenhamer as ''the man we wanted from a large field. I'm delighted we were able to hire him."

Last Milestones �Prelude University College Summer Planning Conference Offers Incoming Freshmen A Glimpse Of College Life A new concept of orientating freshmen was instituted this summer at the University. The new method is called the Summer Planning Conference, a two day conference planned to guide and assist prospective freshmen in selecting a program ofstudy. Italso affords the neophyte a glimpse of campus life and an opportunity to become acquainted with many of the students with whom he will be working and studying. The new student also has an opportunity to meet with members of the faculty on a more informal basis than he will meet them after the semester begins. In this first year of the conference, six sessions were held, each totaling approximately 150 students. This year the conference was on a voluntary basis. In the future the University College plans to make conference attendance mandatory. The two day meeting is crowded with various activities, some work, some play. By means of pictures we have followed Linda Bell through these activities. Linda is from Harbor Creek, Pennsylvania, a suburb of Erie. She is 18 years old and is in the secretarial course of the associate degree program. At Harbor Creek High School, Linda ranked first in a class of 117 graduates. She was president of the student council, class valedictorian and editor of the school's yearbook. 2. in Norton Hall with Faculty advisor and Faculty guest.

MURRAY, Dean, School of Pharmacy The Early Years (1886-1910) The University ofBuffalo began as a medical school in 1846. Up until that time most of the physicians and pharmacists of the country had been trained under an internship or apprenticeship system going back to colonial times and ultimately to the pattern of eighteenth century England. There were no significant number of pharmaceutical manufacturing firms, and very few hospitals. The practice of medicine was almost entirely general practice, and the pharmacist of the day was a manufacturer, compounder and dispenser. His dispensary was the area "manufactory," where tinctures, elixirs, syrups, ointments and pills were all prepared and dispensed. It was a busy and interesting life, albeit somewhat rigorous, as shown by the following set of drug store rules, 1854: — Theold University Main and Virginia. "Open at 6:00 A. M., close at 9:00 P. M." "Any employee who is in the habit of smoking Spanish cigars, getting shaved at a barber shop, going to dances and other places of amusement, will most surely give his employer reason to suspect his integrity and allaround honesty. Each employee must attend Sunday school every Sunday. Men employees are given one evening a week for courting purposes, and two if they go to prayer meeting regularly. After 14 hours of work in the store, the remaining leisure time must be spent in reading good literature." Despite the unattractiveness, to our modern eyes, of such a schedule, the practice of pharmacy nourished, and in 1886, the second division of the A pharmacy of the 78905. University was instituted with the opening of the School of Pharmacy in the University building, at the corner of Main and Virginia streets. Perusal of the University documents of that day are interesting, even instructive, and bring back something of the atmosphere of the early days of the University. "Buffalo (1886) is a city of 300,000 population. Ithasanarea of 42 square miles. There are 2500 "manufactories" which give employment to 50,000 "operatives." (Pridefully, readers were reminded that this latter figure represented an increase of nearly 200% since 1880). Of the 250 miles of paved streets, about one-half were laid with asphalt—(a greater portion, says the 1886 chronicler, than any other city in the world). A major point of convenience was stressed in the University Bulletin of 1886. "Eight lines of street cars pass the University Building and it is, therefore, easy of access from any part of the city." Some of the flavor of those distant days returns to us in the recognition that Senator E. Carleton Sprague, Chancellor of the University, was Lecturer in Pharmacal Jurisprudence. We find also that "in the laboratories each working space is provided with Niagara water, a porcelain sink, and a connection with the main water pipe." The early history of the School of Pharmacy is to a large extent the history of one man, Dean Willis C. Gregory. Dr. Gregory, M.D. '82, became Dean of the new School of Pharmacy in 1890 and held this position for 46 years, guiding the steps of the new division and presiding over the changes and expansions which came along as the years went by. In 1904, a second important name in the School's history emerges, when we find the name Dr. Albert P. Sy listed in the University Bulletin as Professor of Organic Chemistry and German. In this title was the hint of things to come. of^ft 6 Alumni �The Middle Years (1910-1937) The middle years for the School of Pharmacy were years of growth and Idevelopment for the University as a whole. The School of Pharmacy played an important part in this development. On the occasion of the fiftieth anniversary of the School of Pharmacy, in 1936, Chancellor Capen commented as follows: "Early in its career the School of Pharmacy became the germinating centre for other University developments. Long before the establishment of the College of Arts and Sciences, the Department of Chemistry of the school, under the farsighted direction of Dean Gregory and Dr. Sy, expanded and offered advanced training for chemical specialists. Other basic sciences and foreign languages were also added to the offerings of the School. The foundations thus laid, especially in physics, chemistry, botany and geology, were such as the College of Arts and Sciences could build upon when that division made its appearance in the University organism." The College of Arts and Sciences was developed in the years from 1913 onward. In 1920, as a result of the efforts of Dean Gregory, funds were obtained with which to erect the first new building of the present campus, Foster Hall, to house the School of Pharmacy and the Department of Chemistry of the new College of Arts and Sciences. In 1922 Dean Gregory moved the School of Pharmacy out to the campus, and in the years following watched the emergence and development of other colleague divisions on the present site of the University. During these middle years the School of Pharmacy continued to develop its own program. From its beginning in 1886, up to 1937, its offerings expanded from a one year program, totaling 220 clock hours to a four year program, totaling 3200 clock hours. The Recent Years (1938-1959) Beginning in the middle 1930's a massive transition in pharmacy occurred. Untilthe 1930's theretail pharmacist had to a considerable degree continued Howto combine the functions of manufacturer, compounder and dispenser. ever, the era of the muchreferred to "wonder drugs" was ushered in with the firms. Since sulfonamides in 1936, produced by the large pharmaceutical 1936, as a consequence of the burgeoning of the manufacturing phase of pharmacy, the number of pharmaceutical manufacturing firms has increased 7 times and the dollarvolume of sales of prescription drugs 12 times. Gradually much of the manufacturing, and, in later years, the compounding the manufacturing functions of the retail pharmacist have been taken up by pharmacist and to some degree by the hospitalpharmacist. These shifts in activity occurring within pharmacy are examples of the larger revolution which has occurred in the practice of all of the arts and sciences related to medicine and health. Rapid advances in surgical techniques, physical and occupational therapy, nutrition, public health practices and in drug therapyenorhave all occurred in the same two decades. Thus, side by side with very rapid mously increased sophistication of drug therapy have come the functions growth ofcomplex hospital facilities, the greatly enlarged research of schools of medicine and the development of a multitude of institutes (cancer, heart and the like) for special functions in improvement of the health of society. of Pharmacy in Dr A. B. Lemon took over the guidance of the School Despite the problems 1937 just as the great expansion in pharmacy began. occasioned by the late depression years, World War 11, and theKorean condevelopment of the four year flict Dean Lemon successfully pursued the the cause curriculum.

At the present Dean Gregory, Dr. Sy, Dean Lemon. Pharmaceutical Chemist. Biochemist in the pharmaceutical industry. 7 Bulletin �time, approximately half of the funds expanded each yearfor research in the various life sciences are utilized in pharmaceutical industry. Arising out such intensive attention to the development of modern, highly potent drug^^ substances, has come a new and expanded definition of pharmacy. "Pharmacy is that profession which is concerned with the art and science of preparing from material and synthetic sources suitable and convenient materials for distribution and use in the treatment and prevention of disease. It embraces a knowledge of the identification, selection, pharmacologic action, preservation, combination, analysis and standardization of drugs and medicines. It also includes their proper and safe distribution." In the light of this modern definition there are now a large number of careers open to the graduates of schools of pharmacy. ol^fc In Industry a. Pharmaceutical or Medicinal Chemist Extraction and purification of drugs from natural sources, (for example, insulin from pancreas, antibiotics from molds and bacteria, morphine and other alkaloids from drug plants). Synthesis and analysis of drugs by the techniques of chemistry (for example, the sulfa drugs, vitamins and hormones, barbiturates, antihistamines and tranquiiizers). Product development —Tabletformation. b. Pharmacistformulator Design and manufacture of formulations containing the active drugs— tablets, capsules, syrups, elixirs, ointments, sprays. c. Pharmacologist or pharmaceutical biochemist Employment of experimental animals and various biological systems to investigate the mode of action of various drug substances. d. Medical ServiceRepresentativi Duties involve advice and information to physicians and pharmacists in regard to a company's products and the promotion of these products to both these groups of practitioners. In Hospital Pharmacy The pharmacist in a hospital environment works very closely with the medical and nursing staff, serves on the therapeutics committee, and carries out small scale manufacturing. Hospital pharmacy is a very rapidly expanding field. The number of pharmacists in this field has more than tripled in ten years. With the rapid increase in the growth of hospitals in recent years, a continued increase in the number of hospital pharmacists may be anticipated. Approximately one third of all drugs and medicines are utilized in the hospital environment at the present time. It is interesting that 40 per cent of the pharmacists in hospitals are women. It is clear that this will be an expanding career opportunity for women in pharmacy. A pharmacologist. 8 In Retail Pharmacy Approximately four hundred new medicinal formulations are introduced in medical practice each year. Thus the problem of distribution, both of the products themselves and of information about them becomes increasingly complex. Retail pharmacy is the largest single segment of pharmacy, embracing generally two types of retail establishment—the large, multi-functioned shopping centre pharmacy and the smaller exclusively professional prescription pharmacy. While the manufacturing and compounding functions of the modern retail pharmacist have largely shifted to other segments of the profession, the matter of staying abreast of the rapidly increasing numbers of medicinals is an increasingly difficult problem requiring progressively more advanced and thorough fundamental education in the basic pharmaceutical sciences. Alumni �r Ninety per cent of the medicinals of 1959 were not in existence ten years ago and itis clear that the retail pharmacist of the years ahead must enlarge his knowledge continually throughout his entire professional life. Pharmacy is very probably unique in its high obsolescence rate, as newer and improved medicinal formulations displace those of only a few years before from medical practice. The National Picture in Pharmacy (1960-1975) The body pharmaceutical (1960 and 1975) will comprise the following. Manufacturing 1960 1975 Pharmacist formulators Pharmaceutical and Medicinal Chemists Biochemists Pharmacologists Executive and Sales Stan" Medical Service representatives Hospital Pharmacy I \ 3000 900C 4000 21,00( 5200 15,00( 3000 48,000 52,000 600C 50,0OC / Production of antibiotics in culture tanks. Retail Pharmacy Apothecaries Retail Pharmacy owners Retail Pharmacy-pharmacist employees Teaching, Government, and University Research 100.00C 1500 600C Total personnel trained in schools ofpharmacy 116,700 207.OOC The above figures are based on presently available data and conservative national predictions. For example, it is estimated that in 1960 the gross sales "* (at manufacturers level) of drugs and medicines will be close to 2 billion ■» dollars. In 1975 gross sales will be 5.5 billion dollars requiring approximately triple the research and development staff. Inaddition a greatly increased per centage of medical service representatives will be pharmaceutically trained. At the present time there are approximately 7000 hospitals in the country, employing 5200 pharmacists. In 1975there will be 11,000hospitals employing 15,000 pharmacists. With increased utilization by the society of health insurance plans, more and more people will make use of hospital facilities, including the supplying of drugs. The hospital pharmacies of 1975 will dispense over 50% of all medicines prescribed. The above indications, together with the trend in retail practice toward the larger shopping center pharmacy, will limit the number of retail outlets in 1975 to the present number of approximately 50,000, each staffed by three A hospital pharmacist at work. pharmacists. The Years Ahead A projection of the activities of the School of Pharmacy in the years ahead must take account of the above outlined trends and also of factors related to the geographic position of the University. In 1975, approximately 30,000 pharmaceutically trained personnel will be employed by pharmaceutical industry. The replacement rate is about 6-7%, or 2000 per year. With the concentration of pharmaceutical industry remaining primarily in the east, The University of Buffalo will be supplying 35-45 graduates per year to pharmaceutical industry. Secondly, 1975will see 15,000pharmacists practicing in a hospital environ- "] —' ment. At a replacement rate of 6% per year, the schools must train 900 per year in 1975, or 10-12 per school. However, hospital concentration in 1975 will be primarily in 6 states—New York, Pennsylvania, Michigan, Illinois, California, and Florida. Here at the University we are approximately centrally located with respect to the first three of these and it seems clear that in 1970-75 there will be a requirement to supply 25-30 hospital pharmacists per year.

In 1960,along with other Schools of Pharmacy, a five year program will be instituted. The curricular variations will proceed out of a core curriculum of two years in University College. In the upper three years a variety of elective courses will allow a selection by a student in his field of major interest. For example, it is clear that retail pharmacy will carry a tremendous burden of distribution of medicinals in the years ahead. Thus it will be necessary to expand offerings in management, marketing and pharmaceutical economics. On the other hand, the hospital pharmacist will be functioning more and more as a therapeutic consultant within the hospital environment, and increased attention to physiology and biochemistry and pharmacology will be given in his curriculum. An approximately similarly weighted curriculum will be appropriate to the medical service representative course pattern, although he will require additional offerings in management and marketing as well. Finally, the student who plans a career in pharmaceutical research and development will undertake a program weighted strongly on the side of product formulation, analysis, synthesis and biochemistry. Physical Facilities " In September of 1960, the School of Pharmacy moves into its new quarters in the Health Sciences Building, presently under construction. Completion of this building will bring together on the University campus a complex of the various professions related to health—medicine, dentistry, pharmacy, nursing and biology. The curricular patterns outlined above underlie the design of the approximately 50,000 square feet of space to be utilized by the School of Pharmacy. The various major facilities of the School in its new home will include laboratories in the following: Manufacturing Pharmacy, Pharmaceutical Preparations, Dispensing, Model Pharmacy, Pharmacology, Physical Pharmacy and Drug Product Formulation, Drug Analysis, Organic Pharmaceutical Chemistry, Biochemistry, and Chemistry of Natural Products. Health Science*Building. The School of Pharmacy will move into their new quarter! next September when the building is completed. The new 10 Alumni of Pharmacy As part of a University for whom a major objective is that of service to its area, a prime function of the School of Pharmacy has been that of providing pharmacists to the Western New York area. At the present time, it has over 2,000 practicing pharmacy alumni, located mainly in the surrounding communities. Continuing relationships with its alumnihave beenfostered through the years, particularly by Dean Emeritus Lemon. These relationships are perhaps best exemplified by the successful inauguration, by practicing pharmacists, of an Annual Participating Fund for Pharmaceutical Education. The existence of the fund makes possible additions to staff and further individual attention in the instructional program. Some 400 pharmacy alumni, under the leadership of co-chairmen, Mearl D. Pritchard, PhG'2l and Howard H. Kohler, PhG'22, are now active participants in the fund. This very much appreciated support by alumni and friends of the School of Phar- I macy is particularly helpful at a time when the School is moving to new facilities and an expanded program.

Recent reports by W. Max Wise and others have shown that the level Arising with the growth of The University of Buffalo, has been the question, "what does the future hold for fraternities?" Often criticized by the community, suspected by the independent student, ignored or condemned by some of the faculty, social fraternities on this and other college campuses are caught in the whirl of the Sputnik age and are in danger of becoming obsolete. Occasionally, they are viewed as a nuisance factor, a den of festive nonsense, or a social pen for snobbish butterflies. It has been asserted that fraternities have outlived their usefulness as a necessary adjunct of higher education. The American college fraternity of today is at the crossroads! There is little question that as college enroll- , ments increase, there will be greater diversity in the student population. The current popular impression of the college student, as a late adolescent who regards college chiefly as a social activity, is no longer true. No longer does the college student regard his studies as a kind of admis12 of effort of college students is rising steadily, and their interest in their studies is generally serious—too serious, according to some observers. They devote considerable time and thought to the kind of training best suited to the carrying out of their life plans. Their life outside of the college is more important to them today than it has ever been. They are highly individualistic and seek independence rather thanconformity. Joe College is no more. College fraternities will have to make adjustments to this new type of student in a mass quality of educational environment if they are to exist on any campus. The way fraternities recognize and accept these new responsibilities will be the result of a point of view rather than any physical program or operation. Unless these adjustments are made, fraternities run the risk of becoming insignificant or even eventually eliminated from the college community. Meet the Challenge Can fraternities meet this challenge? A comparison of the fraternity of the "roaring twenties" with that of the present day indicates that fraternities do have the capacity to change. Back in the eighteenth century their primary role was literary and intellectual. Subsequently the social aspects assumed greater prominence. Today the emphasis must again include the intellectual aspects iffraternities are to fit into the changing pattern. In fact, fraternities on this campus have not reached the same development due to their late start in organizing. The increasing complexity of our society, with its needs for greater training in the technological and professional skills and its demands for broadened educational opportunities for all has enlarged fraternity purposes. Present-day emphasis on scholarship is an encouraging indication that fraternities are becoming aware of the adjustments that must be realistically put into effect if they are to justify their position as part of the totaleducational program of the University. Unfortunately, there are still fraternities, whose important goal is not theattainment of the scholarship trophy, but the winning of the intra- mural championship, the Homecoming campaign, or the reputation of throwing the "best" social event of the year. Certainly these activities have their place, but because fraternities have become so closely identified with the social aspects of their existence, they, at times, find themselves unable to answer their critics. Today, educators not only accept the fraternities as an integral part of the academic community, but freely and frankly state that undergraduate education is best served when it combines a balance between academic performance and social development. Fraternities might well be on their way out if it were not for educators such as the present Dean of Students at The University of Buffalo. Dean Richard A. Siggelkow has often reiterated that "as long as fraternities continue to develop programs which contribute to the overall educational objective and program of the University, they have my full support." It is hoped thatfraternities do not lose the opportunity to prove their worth, remembering that there are still some educatorswho have not lost faith in them. Alumni �By JOHN Z. OKONIEWSKI, Assistant Coordinator, Student Activities What can fraternities do to justify this faith? First of all, instead of excuses for the weaknesses of fraternities, let them have an adequate defense! It is not true that today's young men are too busy to be active in fraternity life. It is not true that college men are extensively different from "the boys I knew when I was in school." Nor is it true that fraternities have outlived their usefulness. Never has it been more important for young men to step out of college self-assured, confident, socially adjusted and especially intellectually alert. Fraternities can still effectively teach durable values, based on the ideals of theirfounders if they believe and practice the principles of their Constitutions. Fraternity experience definitely contributes to a student's poise, maturity, leadership, self-confidence, and social finesse. A valid criticism of this social education is that it provides a veneer for the student without any grain of depth. It is asserted that this is an education in the acceptable modes and behavioral responses to our society's social demands. A socially mature student is important, but fraternities can do more and go deeper. They must add depth to their educational objectives. Again, it is unfortunate that fraternities seem to be more interested in the gloss they put on the individual than in their ability to assist the individual in his intellectual and personal development. One way fraternities can meet this challenge is by individualizing the pledge program. Individualintellectual activity should be encouraged as strongly as group activity. Fraternities must be concerned with the individual as a unique, striving potential asset of their organization and not as a part of their group, who may happen "to fit in." InBulletin dividuals must not be solely judged by their sociability, but concern must be given to the whole person. By meeting this challenge of developing the individual, fraternities can gain status, fulfill an educational need, and still be social in nature. To be sure, modern-day developments have forced fraternities into necessary transitions but with the proper guidance they may continue to offer a major intellectual contribution in the college experience. The tools for accomplishing these objectives are active alumni interestand support. The Alumni Role A fraternity's power, prestige and prominence can be directly attributed to alumni who actively take part in the chapter life, attend and participate in meetings and initiations, and serve as wise and sympathetic advisors. Where we find active alumni supinvariably have a strong chapter. Where alumni are concerned over financial difficulties, we find greater solvency in its undergraduate treasury; where alumni are concerned over scholastic deficiencies, scholarship improves; where alumni are guiding, we have a chapter that contributes and truly justifies its position in the scholastic world—Alumni support isimperative to a chapter's successful existence. port, we Too often, the greatest criticism of a fraternity chapter comes from its alumni. Would it not be more brotherly to lend support, interest and active participation? Have we forgotten that fraternity is for life? Loyalty, devotion, and service are essential to the esprit de corps of any fraternal organization. The ultimate and continuing existence of each chapter rests with its alumni mem- bers. We cannot lose if we trust our undergraduates to provide creative leadership to the fraternity system as long as that leadership thinks in campus-wide terms. I. F. C. Finally, as the conscience of the campus fraternity system, the Interfraternity Council, the governing and regulatory body for all fraternities on this campus, must be constantly sensitive to the administration as well as to the needs and desires of all the students. This is a difficult role to play, one which changes constantly and produces manyconflicts. But a mature and responsible I.F.C. can learn to play this role effectively. Fraternities must learn to be more self-critical rather than awaiting criticism from others. Fraternities must learn to look forward and help to lead The University of Buffalo toward a happier, more productive, and more meaningful campus atmosphere. Quality A fraternity can be no better than the university of which it is a part. A fraternity that turns all of its energy toward the success of its chapter apart from its role in the University is like a highly sensitive introvert who thinks only of himself. No fraternity exists as an island apart from the people who surround it on the campus and other groups of people who have a natural concern for the chapter and for its success. If we are going to make fraternities mean anything, quality must be our foremost goal in scholarship and in men. Fraternities are not dying—they too are learning—and alumni can be their best teachers. 13 �Six Professors Retire Dr. Niles Carpenter Dr. Niles Carpenter was the first dean of the School of Social Work at the University.

Approximately 200 attended the dedication of Sherman Hall, over 300 were present for the citation luncheon,a record 10,500turned out at Rotary Field, another 500 at the TUNK after the game. 250 for the Homecoming Dinner and 500 at the HomecomingDance. Even though the Bulls suffered a 26-0 defeat at the hands of a fine BaldwinWallace football team, the 1958 Homecoming was in all other respects the most successful in U.B.s history. One of the most successfulsegments of the Homecoming program was that of honoring the 25 year football team, in this case, the team of 1933. Eight members of that team made an appearance at the luncheon or at the Homecoming Dinner-Dance. Those present Charles Donatelli, MD'3B; H. John Ebberts, BS(Bus)'39; Kenneth C.

Two minutes later the Blasdell. N. Y. star ran 43 yards to pay dirt after receiving a pass from Allegretto. Ken Born, who ran well in the first half, tallied again in the third quarter, The honors that resulted from the fine record of this outstanding team are a tribute to ChancellorClifford C. Furnas' five year athletic program. The awards, in the order they were received,are: 1. Coach of the Week—the United Press International honored CoachDick Offenhamer with this award after U.B. defeatedColumbia 34-14. 2. E.C.A.C. All-East team—an honor awarded to Willie Evans, U.B.s fleet halfback, after he ran wild against Le- falling on Tom McDougall's fumble in the end zone. Gordon Bukaty also ran for a touchdown and converted. In the fourth period the Bulls scored on two sensational plays. Steve Salasny went into the air with two defenders to snare an Allegretto pass for a score and Jim Keats evaded several Temple tacklers in a 35 yard sideline sprint for a TD. WAYNE STATE Gordon Bukaty had a great day in high. 3. The Lambert Cvp—symbol of the best small college football team in the East. 4. Tangerine Bowl Bid —a first for a U.B. football team. But Buffalo, unswervingly loyal to its negro players, Willie Evans and Mike Wilson, turned down the invitation on a discrimination issue. The only blemish on U.B.s 8-1 record came at the hands of a fine BaldwinWallace team and, unfortunately, fell on Homecoming Day. But from that game on the Bulls rolled to five straight victories over Columbia 34-14, Temple 54-6, Wayne State 44-14, Lehigh 34-26 and Bucknell 38-0. Following is a brief report of the last six gameson U.B.s schedule. They had previously defeated Harvard 6-3, Cortland 7-6 and Western Reserve 19-6. BALDWIN-WALLACE A Homecoming crowd of over 10,000, the largest in U.B.s history at Rotary Field, had little to cheer about as the combination of Baldwin-Wallace quarterback Chuck Brady and end Bob Barrett proved too much for the Bulls. The Yellowjackets from Berea. Ohio handed Buffalo its only defeatof the season 26-0. In many ways this may have been the key gameof the year. From that week on the Bulls opened their offensive throttle and there was no catching them. So on to five victories in a row and national honors. COLUMBIA A host of sophomores and a renovated offensewere too much for the Lions of Columbia. The 34 points scored by Buffalo was more than the total of the four previous games. Bulletin TheLambert Cup footballsupremacy Four sophomores scored for the Bulls. Quarterback Gordon Bukaty ran the option for 33 yards, halfback George Maue plunged from 3 yards, halfback Paul Szymendera scored from 3 and fullback Tom McDougall broke loose for 27 yards on his first carry of his collegiate career. Ken Born, senior halfback-fullback, scored on the picture play of the day. He took the ball from Bukaty on a reverse and scampered 19 yards for the TD with the entire forward wall blocking for him. Junior Jim Allegretto quarter, backed the club for most of the second half. Dick Offenhamer won the coveted '"Coach of the Week" U.P.I, award for the club's efforts in defeating Columbia. TEMPLE The Bulls moved back to Rotary Field to crush the Owls of Temple 54-6 for their fifth victory in six starts. Bill Brogan, junior fullback, who had seen limited action due to injuries, made his reappearance well known to the U.B. rooters. TheBulls led 14-6 at the half byvirtue of a 44 yard punt return by George Maue and a 3 yard plungeby Ken Born. Then midwayin the third stanzaBrogan took a screen pass from Allegretto and ran to the 1 yard stripe. Two plays later he went into the end zone and then con- Detroit as the Bulls piled up 44 points in another great offensiveshow. The sophomore quarterback, who added poise with each outing, scored two touchdowns and passed for three more in the 30 minutes of action he saw. Two of Bukaty's scoring tosses went to Co-Captain Nick Bottini on plays of 27 and 14 yards. Ken Born gathered a 21 yard pass heave from the Lackawanna star. Bukaty scored on a 1 yard plunge and went 37 yards on the option for his other tally. Paul Szymcndera scored the other touchdown. This victory was the Bulls' ninth straight on theroad. LEHIGH Coach Dick Offenhamer said, "This was our finest victory of the season," after his Bulls had defeatedLehigh 34-26 at Bethlehem,Pa. The U.B. stalwarts built up a 28-0 half time lead and a 34-0 third quarter lead beforethe Engineers began to catch fire. Willie Evans started the touchdown parade with a 2 yard plunge. He had run 59 yards to set up the tally. With tackle SamSandersthrowing a key block, Willie ran 72 yards for his second score early in the second period. A fourth down screen pass from Bukaty to Szymendera set up Buffalo'sthird six-pointer scored by Ken Born. End Nick Bottini added two more T.D.s taking passes of 34 and 27 yards from Bukaty. Then Lehigh. held scoreless for 44 minutes and 45 seconds, began to roll. The Engineers scored four quick touchdowns and had the ball with 2Yi minutes left in the game and the score 34-26. At that point CoachesOffenhamer and Dunlap conferred on the sidelines and inserted George Maue at defensivehalfback. 14 �Lehigh, on its first play in an attempt the score, shot a pass downfield but "the perfect substitute" in the man Maue was there to intercept the pass and stifle the Lehigh threat. Willie Evans was chosen on the E.C. to tie A.C. All-East team for his outstanding contest. But Willie and the coaches agreethat tackle SamSanders must be given credit for big assists on Evans' runs. Sanderstore huge holes in the Lehigh line to spring Evans loose. A great gameagainst last year's Lambert Cup winners will long be remembered by the 200 U.B. rooters who made the trip to Bethlehem. running in this Praise and congratulations are extended to Coach Offenhamer and his staff: Kark Kluckhohn, line coach and "quarterback" in the press box; Fred Dunlap, backfieldcoach and key scout; Mike Rhodes, Edß'so, end coach and Ron Laßocque. Edß's4, head coach of the freshmanteam and his assistant, Cy Pollack. Experience, Depth Indicate Bright Cage Season BUCKNELL The University of Buffalo Football Bulls closed their regular season with a 38-0 triumph over Bucknell before another capacity house at Rotary Field. Bukaty, Evans. Sanders and guard StanKowalski were the stars of the game that clinched the Lambert Cup and a bid to the Tangerine Bowl in Orlando. Florida. The Bulls' offensetotaled 444 yards. Sam Sandersagain shook Willie Evans loose for U.B.s first tally, a 47 yard run. Kowalski ran 17 yards with an intercepted pass for the second score. Bukaty ran for 5 to score and passed to Bottini for another. Born passed to sophomore fullback Jerry Gergley to end the scoring. The fact that Bucknell made only 53 yards on the ground was a tribute to U.B.s fine forward wall. This was the fina! gamefor 13 seniors, includingCo-Captains Nick Bottini and Lou Reale. Others who will not be on hand for next year's wars are ends Mike Wilson and Dave Brogan, tackle Jack Welch, guards Joe O'Grady, Chuck Tirone and Fran Mazurkiewicz, center RonStephanand backs Dick VanValkenburgh, Ken Born, Bob Verge and Jim Keats. The success of this outstanding team must naturally be measured by and credited to the men on the playing field. They do the work, take the knocks and execute the plays. But the 1958 University of Buffalo Bulls will agree to a man that the coaching they have received, the finest in the nation, is the key to their success. Coach Dick Offenhamer, in receiving the Coach of the Week Award after the Columbia game said, "he will accept only a small portion of the credit. It is impossible to receive such an honorwithout a loyal, hard working squad and a fine coaching staff." 15 Len Mallon, Bob Harling, Jim Walker and Vie Dußois are coming along fast and must be accommodated. Walker, Parr and Ray Rosinski, who did not play basketball last year, show the most potential amongthe newcomers and should be watched for their move to a starting berth. Kirchberger at 6-3 is the tallest man on the squad. Massotti is 6-2, Lewis 6-1 and Domkowski 6 feet. Joe Tontillo was last year's most reliable playmaker. The Lafayette High School alumnus is a clever ball handler and has a number of good shots. Serfustinifearsthat the big drawback of the squad is the lack of height. Consistency on the backboards will be necessary to compensate for the team's overall smallness. The varsity started the season against Cornell University and were defeated 62-52. The Bulls rebounded against Hobart with a resounding 73-53 victory over the Statesmenon their home court, a feat that Serfustini accomplished for the first time since coaching Buffalo. Fall Sports Results Dr. Leonard Serfustini Leonard T. Serfustini, Edß'49, EdM '51, EdD's6, has enjoyed two very successfulseasons as coach of The University of Buffalo Basketball Bulls. In 1956-57 the Bulls won 17, lost 5. Last season they won 18,lost 7. There is everyreason to believe that this campaign will be just as successful. Coach Serfustini is fortunate to have his entire starting team from last season back with him. They are Joe Tontillo. Howie Lewis, Dick Domkowski. Bob Kirchberger and Al Massotti. In reserve of this solid quintet are two other experienced players, Ben Kurowski and Dick Shaper. Serfustinibelieves his squad is stronger than in the past because of added experience and depth. He is carrying 15 members on the squad compared to 12 last season. His reason for the additional numbers is that sophomores Ken Parr, Freshman Football 26 Colgate Buffalo Buffalo 39 Cortland Buffalo 13 Cornell Buffalo 59 Rochester.

HEIDENBURG Well—after four years the editor finally gets a page, and then it has to be for a farewell address. In leaving an old job there are always certain regrets, misgivings and, of course, many things left undone. My four years as editor of the"Alumni Bulletin" and as assistant director of alumni relations have been enlightening and enriching. I have had the fortunate opportunity to meet and speak with hundreds of alumni, faculty and friends of the University. I have seen what the University means to them. I have witnessed the untiring effort and countless hours spent in working for the University on a volunteer basis. I have been amazed at the enthusiasm and diligence exhibited by nonalumni civic leaders who believe this great University to be the hope of the Niagara Frontier. I have worked closely with nonalumni members of the faculty of the University and have realized their undying devotion to their adopted Alma Mater. I have worked with the fine students of this University and am thoroughly convinced that their loyalty and enthusiasm is unsurpassed on any campus in this nation. Ithasbeen theaim ofthe "Alumni Bulletin" during the past four years to tell alumni and friends of the University just how great and alive this institution is. We have attempted to tell this story by informing ourreaders of the progress being made here — Bulletin physically, academically and in the field of athletics. I am positive that this should continue to be the role of your magazine; to inform and thereby increase the pride you have for the University that has affected your lives so completely. It was mentioned above that many things have been left undone, and this is true. There is no end to the number of interesting articles available to an alumni magazine with a university campus as the source for material. We have not begun to tap the resources of gifted teachers who are willing to write or to tell the interesting facts of education that are outwardly masked by walls of stone. In each issue over the past four years we have attempted to highlight one or two divisions of the University. We have tried to focus attention on certain professors or their publications. But—in over twenty issues with more than 500 total pages we have not scratched the surface. As new buildings are erected, new departments formed and new teachers employed, the sources of information become endless. I believe the future ofthe "Alumni Bulletin" is a bright one. The goal of theBulletin is modest compared with other institutions of equal status. I believe the most important advancement made in manyyears is theaddition of talent to the editorial chair. The talent has arrived in the person of Janice Nitsch Mogavero, BA'SB. MRS. MOGAVERO Jan adds not only brains but beauty her new position as editor of the "Alumni Bulletin" and assistant to director of alumni relations. While attending the University Jan was extremely active in student affairs as president of Cap and Gown, editorin-chiefof the "Spectrum", assistant editor of the "Buffalonian", chairman of campus barrel and a member of the Board of Managers. As an alumna, Mrs. Joseph Mogavero (Joe is a student at the University's Law School) has been administrative assistant to the vice chancellor of planning and development at the University and, most recently, has been employed as a copywriter by the creative department of Wm. J. Keller Printing. So—as Ifold my editorial tent and silently steal away (actually I retreat only across the hall to the development office where I assume my duties as assistant director of development for Medical Affairs) I am confident that I leave this publication in extremely capable hands, those of the new editor, Jan Mogavero. 3 �Why Alumni Come Back The good time had by all at this year's Homecoming explains why so many L*B grads keep coming back. Of course, the big news was our 22-2 win over Western Reserve. Even though Buffalo weather was against us, some 6000 ardent fans, equipped with rain hats, warm coats and umbrellas, enjoyed the fine playing of the 'Bulls,* Chancellor Furnas' warm welcome, the crowning of Linda Benson as Homecoming Queen, the introduction offive members of the '34 Football Team, and the excellent half-time show of the UB and Western Reserve bands. At the TUNK following the game 300 alumni met and talked about the 'old days' as members of Bisonhead and Cap and Gown servedrefreshments. The Norton Union Open House, held at the same time as the TUNK, was also well attended. To top off the day theannual Dinner-Dance was held at the Buffalo Athletic Club. Turkey was the main attraction at the Dinner; Tommy Rizzo's wonderful orchestra provided the music for the Dance. There were 400 in attendance. The committee members who deserve a lot of credit for the success of theweekend were: Charles D. Einach, BA'SI, general Homecoming chairman; Alexander P. Aversano, BS(Phar)'36, arrangements for the '34 Football Team; Bernard B. Skerker, Law '41, Stag Sports Night chairman; Elizabeth L. Dribben, BA'5B, Catherine Girvin, BA'57, Publicity; Mildred C.

A significant theme undergkds the whole, and her command of language and narrative techniques have matured and taken on that sureness that is close to deftness.

Mrs. Tabrah's Naturalism and Subjectivism task is by Dr. Marvin Farber to cut him down to size. Though Charlie has a glimpse of reality twice in the story, it is doubtful that he ever learns anything. At the very end he is but a stunned fish momentarily out of water. This is a Peyton Place type of novel, without the rawness and violence of that quivering expose. Love affairs of bar, bed. and bush are frequent enough to keep the jaded American reader up to his customary sexual expectations. But Mrs. Tabrah pervades her story with the warmth of human understanding, despite her ridiculous Charlie McCoy. She is furthermore vividly aware of sky and woods and weather and the genius of places, as Mrs. Metallious is not. Thus her focus is on the community, never too long on any one person. And this brings us to the theme. carried in the tide. All but three characters in the novel "accept the mask" of society, "the constant nagging voices of others." The false people of Sable Rapids are status seekers,omerKlirected by the "They" that Mrs. Tabrah is somewhat too insistent on explaining. The truer people are those who drive toward inner-directed goals, who are free of fear of Mrs. Grundy and of what all the Others may think and say. Tekla the heroine is one such.—and an old game warden, and a fine old Tamah Indian. Dr. Marvin Farber, distinguished professor of philosophy and head of the department of philosophy, has written a new book entided .Xaturalism and Subjectivism. The book is published by Charles C. Thomas, Springfield, Illinois, October 1959, 405pp., 59.50. The following statements are a synopsis of Dr. Farber's book as released by the publisher. "The year 1959 is notable in the world of philosophy as the 100th anniversary of the birth of the naturalist John Dewey, and the subjectivist, Edmund Husserl. It will also mark the publication date of a distinguished work by MarvinFarber —well known professor ofphilosophy and author of numerous books and articles, both here and abroad. It is a book to interest all readers of philosophical literature. The central theme is the conflict between naturalism and subjectivism, as developed in the phenomenological movement. Combining painstaking exposition with thoroughgoing criticism, the writer discusses the use of phenomenology as a general philosophy, as well as representative philosophies of human existence. A true appraisal of a large section of the controversial philosophical thought of this age."

Left to right, Row The University of Buffalo football Bulls completed their second consecutive8-1 season Saturday, November 21,with aworkmanlike—and ofttimes spectacular—37-12 victory over Marshall College. The Bulls' record of 16-2 over the past two years constitutes an all-time high-water football mark. In the Marshall game, quarterback Gordon Bukaty fired three touchdownpasses to endBob Adams. Quarterback Joe Oliverio kicked in with a 30-yard screen pass to halfback Ron Clayback as the Bulls pulled out all offensive stops. Gene Guerrie, the 12 breathtaking sophomore, set up a fifth touchdown with two long passes covering 86 yards to Steve Salasny. It was U.B.'s most authoritative offensive showing of the year. Adams, playing his final game, gained AllEast recognition with outstanding offensive and defensive performances. The Bulls opened the season against Temple University at Philadelphia, September 26. U.B. struck quickly for a first period touchdown; then was battled to a standstill by the determined Owls until shortly before the end of the first half, when halfback Bill Brogan scored from eight yards out. The Bulls went 73 yards in eight plays for a third period touchdown. Then sophomore Gene Guerrie hit Bob Adams with a touchdown pass in the fourth quarter to close the U.B. scoring. Temple went 85 yards in 16 plays for its first touchdown in the third period. Toward the end of the game, a poor pass from the center in a punting situation set up the Owls' second score. The Bulls did not appear to extend themselves against the undermanned Owls. On October 3, Dick Offenhamer's Bulls unveiled their new Wing T offense against Cortland State. An Alumni �opening day crowd of 8500, in attendance at Rotary Field, watched in admiration as the Bulls romped to a 68-2 victory over their usually very tough opponent. U.B. scored 3 touchdowns in the first 7 minutes. It was no contest from there on in. The 10--touchdown splurge ranked, historically speaking, among theBulls' highest scoring totals. Left halfback Willie Evans scored twice. He was the only one to register more than a single touchdown as Offenhamer unveiled a host of fleet running backs operating behind a tremendously hard charging line. The Bulls suffered their first and as it was to turn out, only defeat of the season Saturday, October 10 at Bucknell. The underdog Bisons, demonstrating a fine inside running game and excellent passing quarterback in Paul Terhes, enjoyed a 6-0 lead at the half. Bucknell, scoring two more touchdowns in the third period, another early in the fourth, held a 26-0 lead before the lethargic Bulls suddenly and explosively came alive. Gene Guerrie fired a 50-yard touchdown pass to Ron Clayback. Two minutes later from the Buffalo 5, he hit Steve Salasny at midfield. Salasny went rest of the way. With time running out, Gordon Bukaty threw a 25--yard pass to Skip Maue for the third touchdown. However, Bucknell managed to hang on to the ball during the remaining two minutes. On theheels of the defeat by Bucknell, U.B. scored a 27-18 victory over Baldwin-Wallace October 17atBerea, Ohio. The victory, a tough one to achieve, was double sweet. Itavenged last year's 26-0 loss to the Yellow Jackets. Italso took some of the sting out of the Bucknell defeat. Gordon Bukaty's excellent passing and quarterbacking and the crisp running of Willie Evans were the decisive factors against Baldwin-Wallace. Baldwin-Wallace scored their first T.D. on a 37-yard touchdown pass, Chuck Brady to Bill Eyerdom. U.B. struck back, after having previously been denied twice deep in Baldwin- Bulletin Wallace territory, to score 5 seconds before intermission. With Bukaty at the controls, theBulls gained 73 yards in 9 plays. Bukaty got the final 6 himself. Bill Brogan placed—kicked the punt for 7-6 U.B. half-time lead. U.B. scored early in the second half. Baldwin-Wallace closed to within a point as Goosby plunged from the 2. However, U.B. went 69 yards in 8 plays following the kickoff to take a 21-12 lead.Baldwin-Wallace capitalized on a U.B. fumble to close within 3 points in the fourth quarter. Then theBulls fought off a last ditch Baldwin-Wallace drive and Willie Evans put the icing on the cake with a startling last minute 48-yard touchdown run. October 24marked the Bulls' 34th Homecoming. Only the weather which proved atrocious, dampened the spirits of the old grads. The highlight of the Homecoming program was the Bulls' 22-2 defeat of Western Reserve. On a field, better suited for ducks, the Bulls ground out the workmanlike victoryover their rivals. Halfback Bill Brogan scored all 3 U.B. touchdowns. Willie Evans—the Bulls' Little All America—picked up 87 yards in 14 carries. Brogan scored on runs of 45 and 5 yards from scrimmage. He also took a 11-yard scoring pass from the sensational sophomore Gene Guerrie, who had engineered a march from the U.B. 16. Under the worst possible weather circumstances, U.B. scored its fifth victory in six starts, 16-7 over Youngstown University October 31. Plagued by travel problems, arising from cancellation of a chartered flight, a hurried pre-game meal and a driving rainstorm, the Bulls led by senior halfback Bill Brogan and Willie Evans and junior quarterback Gordon Bukaty, overcamean early first period 48-yard touchdown run by Youngstown's Harold Green. Bukaty directed the counter-attack as the Bulls went 34 yards in 8 plays for the tying touchdown. Brogan got the score. An 80-yard 18-play advance in the second quarter closed out the scoring. Bukaty threw 2 passes for 27 yards during the drive. He stuck to the ground the rest of the wayand finally, went Evans off tackle for 3 yards and a touchdown. The teams battled in deep mud throughout thesecond half. Neither got close to pay dirt. The Bulls came back home November 7 against Rhode Island Univer- sity. Quarterback Gordon Bukaty put on another brilliant performance as he completed Bof 11 passes good for 106 yards and three touchdowns and gained 45 yards running in 11 carries during the 41-6 romp over the New Englanders. Sophomore quarterback Gene Guerrie also threw a touchdown pass. Fullback Gene Reilly scored on a 15-yard off tackle run and Skip Maue on an 18-yard end run. It was strictly no contest from the time Bukaty threw a 10-yard scoring pass to Evans to culminate a 78-yard 10--play drive the first time the Bulls had the ball. U.B. scored four times in the first half. The Rhode Island touch- down in the second quarter constituted its only offensive threat of the day. The U.B. defensive line was outstanding. The Bulls also had four interceptions making a total of 25 for the season to that date. U.B. constituted its drive Saturday, November 14 with a 19-6 victory over Gettysburg at Rotary Field. A disappointing—and disappointed because of the weather—crowd of 3000 watched the Bulls extend their winning streak to 5 straight on the wet, biting afternoon. Willie Evans scored twice —once on 14-yard offtackle slant; the other on the end of 11 -yard pass from sophomore Gene Guerrie. The thrill providing U.B. halfback rolled up 114 yards in 17 carries. Sophomore Gene Reillyscored the other touchdown on a 28-yard run. Carley Keats caught four passes during the afternoon, as quarterback Gordon Bukaty and his replacement sophomore Gene Guerrie handled the wet ball with extreme finesse. Gettysburg put together a 66-yard offensive drive for a last-minute touchdown that averted the shutout. 13 �The first large block order for 1960 season football tickets was received at the Athletic Ticket Office almost before the crowd had departed the Marshall game. Alpha Kappa Psi Fraternity purchased 60 season tickets, an increase of 30 over their 1959 order. Bernard Skerker, president of the U.B. Sports Boosters, announced that Cy Jacobs and Harold Johnson would cochairman the 1960 season ticket drive. Plans will soon be formulated for a concerted season ticket sale campaign.

A concerted drive is being planned. season ticket holder." Get 1960 Football Tickets Early "We should have an interesting ball club," so spoke Dr. Leonard T. Serfustini, head coach of the Univer- sity ofBuffalo basketball Bulls at the start of practice last October 15. Serfustini's reluctance to predict an artistically successful season, from the standpoint of games won and lost, is understandable. The good doctor, whose U.B. teams over the past three seasons, have won 51 while losing but 19 games, lost heavily through graduation last June. No fewer than five first-line players were awarded their sheepskins.Three other members of last year's varsity did not return to school even though they have not graduated. As a consequence, Serfustini has to depend heavily on sophomores with no previous varsity experience, plus a pair of transfers—ineligible last year —to fill key positions. Cornell was thevictor in thescheduled opener December 2, (53-60) and Boston University, reported to have one ofthe nation's outstanding teams, defeated U.B. (55-64) on December 12. Serfustini was naturally fearful thathis relatively green squad would be unable to cope with such major Report on Cagers at Mid-Season competition so early in the season. On the other hand, the popular U.B. coach who has guided three consecutive teams to NCAA College Division Tournament berths, admits that this year's squad has great potential. Up to the Christmas holidays U.B.'s record was 3—3 with victories over Oswego State (84-69), Lawrence Tech (99-73), Brockport State (81-56) and losses to Cornell, Boston and California Poly (59-61). Guards Dick Schaper, Paul Mallon and Dick Dompkowski either started many oflast year's games or saw considerable action. They form the bulwark of experience. Sophomore David Baldwin, a transfer from Bowling Green, and junior Bob Myszewski, who two years ago was a starter for Canisius, have demonstrated great natural ability. Sophomores William McEvoy, Earl Gunn, Gerry Filipski must come through. Gunn and Filipski are the biggest men on the squad at 6' 4". McEvoy was the leading freshman scorer a year ago. Other members of last year's varsity who are battling for positions include juniorKen Parr, senior Denis Norton, junior Jim Walker and junior Ray Rosinski. Sophomores Nick Shosho and Sam Battaglia round out a 14-man squad. The Bull's main problem is the same as always lack of height. Nevertheless, Serfustini coached teams are trade-marked by aggressiveness, fundamental excellence and great desire to win. — ROBERT MYSZEWSKI The Bulls* Foremost Guard Alumni 14 �ALUMNI NEWS ITEMS BY CLASSES '98 LLB—JOHN LORD O'BRIAN, former resident of Buffalo, now a Washington, D.C.

Haenle, BA '58, discussespossible jobopportunities with Frederick J. Lambrecht. PLACEMENT: Photos—Robert V. S. The Bridge Between Graduate and Company BY THOMAS F. HAENLE, JR. OneThundred forty alumni of the University of Pittsburgh savedapproximately $35,000 in employment agency fees by utilizing their placement service during the year 1957-8. This was a conservative estimate, based on starting salaries and usual agency expenses, calculated in a recent survey. The Student Personnel Services at the University of Buffalo offers a similar service through its General Placement Office. Many positions offered by private agencies are also on file at General Placement and can be obtained without the considerable fee charged by commercial agencies which exist as profit-making organizations. The Placement Service is one important campus office whichreaches a communication arm out to business and industry. Its chief points of contact are the personnel offices and the college relations offices of all types of organizations. Established in the first quarter of this century, university placement offices were almost without exception designed to assist students in finding teaching positions. There followed an evolutionfrom teacher placement to a more inclusive service. The University of Buffalo has both services now located in one central office. General Placement services students from the Schools of Arts and Sciences, Business Administration, Law, Millard Filhnore College and University College (two year program-associate degrees). General Placement assists all students through its part-time employment functions. Placement operates under the philosophy offaith in the quality of the graduates and the belief that throughplacement functions which provide contacts, a graduate will find a position in which he will be both efficient and satisfied through his own efforts. The basic theory is to help the student help himself. Today's graduate faces a difficult task of finding the best possible job for himself in the complex world of work. Media of all types constantly publicize theneed for a college education but do not tell newly-graduated studentswhere they can best satisfy vocational desires, how to seek out promising careers, or what they must do to open the door to employers' offices. These new degree holders may use many sources such as friends, parental contacts, employment agencies, newspaper want ads, unsolicited letters and resumes, or they may pound the pavement canvassing the business world in search for employment. Any or all of the above methods may be successfully employed, but each is tiring and time consuming. Some of these methods are very expensive, especially if travel is involved. Time is vital to a senior who is naturally concerned with studies and part-time work. A university placement service, aware of the many complications of job hunting, assists students during their last year of college by arranging campus interviews with local, state, and national organizations. 3 Hengerer �MOMENTS OF DECISION New Enlarged Quarters Recognizing the \alue of a modem, efficient operation, the University of Buffalo recently established new placement offices at Schoellkopf Hall. The new facilities include interviewing booths, offices for group recruiting, and a vocational library which contains career information as well as company literature describing many organizations, theirfunction in the business world and descriptions of the numerous opportunities they offer. There are also many directories of business firms which actively seek college graduates and information on interviewing techniques, letter writing and resume preparation. The new quarters offer business and industrial recruiters many advantages. The private interviewing booths are pleasant and comfortable, an important consideration to men w ho spend seven or eight hours meeting students. Each interview lasts approximately 30 minutes. To assure students and recruiters of no delay a five minute buzzer warning is given so that an interview may be concluded on schedule. The recruiter also has access to personal history forms which gi\e him a complete picture of a student's personal, educational (including honors, activities, and academic standing I. employment and military backgrounds. Savings For Students One significant aspect of placement is the saving that results for students by contacting employers on campus instead of visiting the employer's concern for the first interview. A recent Ohio State University study attempted to compute the related costs for graduates if they did not have the advantage of placement facilities. The actual savings computed for graduates studied amounted to an average of 51120.00 to 51483.00 per man. The greatest potential savings totaled 52.110.00. To take part in campus interviews a senior completes his personal history form and submits his reference forms to selected faculty members. He then interviews with the placement director, at which time job preferences are discussed. During this meeting the senior receives various data on interviewing techniques, letter writing and resume preparation, and a directory of approximately 2000 organizations seeking college graduates. The vocational library is availablefor students who desire further information on careers and companies. Seniors are notified about forthcoming interviews through a weekly bulletin issued by the Placement Office. 4 Alumni—Sources of Employment Alumni are important not only as seekers of employsources of employment. In addition to campus interviewing. Placement receives job orders throughout the year from Buffalo organizations. Many University of Buffalo alumni hold key positions in business and industry, and through their support, the General Placement Office can more effectively serve not only graduates but students seeking part-timeemployment. A survey conducted by General Placement during the February "59 registration obtained responses from more than 3000 students. Approximately one-third reported that they work part-time while attending school. They averaged a 16 hour academic load with men working 14 hours per week for Sl7 on a job. the women 11 hours and SI 1.50. Part-time employment is often the determining factor in financing education. By calling his university, the alumnus extends a helping hand to his alma mater's students. ment but as �DURING THE INTERVIEW ployment. Most employers are very accommodating when scheduling interviews. Survey of Women Graduates "The widening of job horizons for women is one of the most striking developments of recent years," according to Alice K. Leopold, director of the United States Women's Bureau. Placement is vitally interested in helping the female graduates of our University obtain suitable employment. The office, with the assistance of Miss Jeannette Scudder, dean of women, is presently conducting a survey involving women Arts and Sciences graduates of the years 1957, 1958 and 1959. The study will attempt to answer questions pertaining to opportunities available to these graduates, methods used to find employment, their expectations concerning careers, and their success in fulfilling these expectations. Answers to these questionnaires will play a significant part in determining how the University of Buffalo female graduate utilizes her education in the employment world. Special Programs Placement is presently experimenting with special campus interviewing programs which benefit both students Lifetime Service Placement service does not terminate with graduation. It is a lifetime service and available to all alumni. Alumni who register are eligible for employment information. Registration consists of a personal history form or resume, and an interview with the placement director. Persons completing military obligations should write the office well in advance of discharge. Placement will send a geographically indexed directory offirms to servicemen which will provide the opportunity of interviewing firms either in the area where they are stationed or on their trip home. During his meeting with the placement director, an alumnus is advised as to present openings in desired fields. Thereafter job orders are phoned or mailed to alumni.The decision to investigate is voluntary. Placementwould suggest contact with the office before leaving present positions if this is possible. It is much easier to make a wise decision regarding a new position if economic pressures do not necessitate immediate em- and employers. For example, in the past, Certified Public Accounting firms scheduled interviews throughout the recruiting season of November 1 to April 30. Those firms scheduling early met all the accounting majors interested in public accounting; those scheduling late met veryfew. Inaddition, accounting majors at times were forced to accept or reject offers without full knowledge of opportunities offered by all firms. To remedy the situation, Placement requested CPA firms to schedule interviews during a special two-week program in December. This gave equal opportunity to all firms and allowed students to accept the most favorable offer. Through its program of practical research and experimentation, the Placement Office can even more effectively help the students and alumni realize career objectives. The University of Buffalo Placement Offices are geared to serve the employment needs of the community, state and nation through effective placement of students and alumni.

The National Institute of Neurological Diseases and Blindness, one of the Institutes of the National Institutes of Health, has developed a multi-disciplinary approach in an attempt to ascertain thecauses and possible prevention of this form of disability. This multi-disciplinary approach includes obstetricians, pediatricians, nurses, psychologists, skilled interviewers, biochemists, chemists, biostatisticians, neurologists, pathologists and psychiatrists. The University of Buffalo, and the Children's Hospital, through the departments of Obstetrics and Pediatrics has received a grant of $1,480,000 to be expended over the next ten years as a participant in this research project. Other Universities collaborating in the study are Brown, Columbia, Harvard, Yale, New York Medical College, University of Pennsylvania, Johns Hopkins, Medical College of Virginia, Louisiana University, University of Oregon, and University of Tennessee. Cerebral Palsy, mental retardation and other neurological disorders may be produced in the prenatal period, for at that time the brain is particularly sensitive to damage. The obstetrical care of the mother and history of the child's first month will be intensively studied, along with genetics, immunological and socio-economic factors. Following birth all these children will be followed to their sixth year of life with specially designed studies to elicit any evidence of neurological damage or mental retardation. The study program commences with the mother in the early months of pregnancy. Skilled interviewers and nurses record data concerning the mother's past as well as her present health status. Throughout the pregnancy very careful records are kept in the most minute detail concerning the mother's health and findings of the obstetricians. During labor and delivery, again, extremely careful and accurate records are maintained. Following the delivery of the infant specifically designedphysicalexaminations are performed and the infant iskept underthe most meticulous observations in the nursery. Subsequently, the infant is followed at regular intervals, his general health is appraised as well as mental health. Specially designed physical examinations are carried out which can elicit the most minuteevidence of any neurological impairment. Although, the motivation of this study is the detection and recognition of the neurologically or mentally handicapped child, the study will shed a great deal of light on the process of normal growth and development, both mental and physical. It is recognized that the vast majority of babies will be perfectly healthy, happy children without any evidence of neurological or mental impairment. Nevertheless, it is by the careful study of the normal process of gestation, labor and delivery that it is hoped that the knowledge gained can be brought to bear on the problem of the abnormal and thus, help to prevent the occurrence of the abnormal. The data collected in the participating institutions is collated by a central branch of the National Institute of Neurological Diseases and Blindness through their statistical offices.

The various institutions in the Collaborative Project are kept in close contact by means of frequent meetings amongst the participants in the various disciplines. In addition, to the Central Core of the project which is the study offactors of gestation, labor and delivery, each of the institutions have Ancillary Projects which are intimately associated with the Central Project. Here at the University of Buffalo methods of Microbial Genetics are being applied to human congenital abnormalities with particular reference to mental retardation. It is hoped that these methods will lead to the isolation and identification of certain metabolites that may be associated with or causative of mental retardation or neurological impairment. Biochemical genetics hasadvanced rapidly and at present a largeportion of genetic research depends on the technical advantages of bacteria, bacterial viruses, yeast and molds. This is also true of modern biochemistry and the study of intermediary metabolism. Such studies have been greatly facilitated by the use of microbes as tools in the 8 Thomas Keith AI Children's Hospital, Dr. Robert Guthrie uses microbial techniques to elucidate biochemical differences related to abnormalities of child growth and development. investigation of metabolism of both plants and animals.

Wickser and Sylvia Beach Collections give the University one of the most important James Joyce Collections in the World The Philip J. Wickser Collection James Joyce, a novelist and perhaps the greatest writer of this century, died on January 13, 1941, in Zurich, Switzerland, to which he and his family had fled from Paris to escape the German army. Joyce's personal possessions were entrusted to an old friend, Paul Leon. M. Leon died in a concentration camp; Joyce's belongings were preserved. After the Liberation the collection was rescued from a landlord anxious for back rent and put up for exhibition and sale in 1949by the Paris bookstore, La Libraire La Hune. The collection was seen inParis by friends of Professor Charles D. Abbott and the collection; its appropriateness as an adjunct to the modern poetry collection was immediately recognized. The entire collection was purchased for and givento theLibrary by Margaretta Wickser and her family as a memorial of the life-long interest in the arts of her husband, Philip J. Wickser, an eminent Buffalo lawyer. Itwas first shownto thepublic inApril 1951. In some ways the most pleasant part of the Wickser collection is a kind of souvenir album of Joyce's life. Here are portraits of Joyce'sfamily; photographs of Joyce, his family and his friends in Dublin, Trieste, Paris, and Zurich; his cane, his glasses, hisfountain pen; his identity card, his ration card, his death certificate, a picture of his tomb. In 1955 Professor Thomas E. Connolly, published a description of the second part of the Wickser collection, the 468 books, magazines, and pamphlets whichremained after Joyce "drastically reduced his personal library" in the winter of 1938-39. As evidence of what Joyce was when, in c.c. cummings' phrase, he became his writing, the Wickser collection contains examples of all hisworks in theirknown editions and translations, some of them quiterare. The collection begins with thearticle, Ibsen's New Drama, published in The Philip J. Wickser Collection was described by Myles Statin, assistant professor of English and assistant dean of the College of Arts and Sciences. The article on the Sylvia Beach Collection was written byJ. Benjamin Townsend, assistant professor ofEnglish. April 1900,includes the fragments of Finnegans Wake as they were published between 1924 and 1939 under the title Work in Progress, and ends with their gathering in final book form in 1939. But for the scholar, the unique and unrivalled collection of manuscripts gives the Wickser collection its authority. The collection includes a manuscript, called Epiphanies, which illustrates one of Joyce's central aesthetic doctrines. These notes were used as a basis for episodes in Dubliners and in the later works; they have been edited by Professor O. A. Silverman, and published by the Library. The thirty-two pages of notes for the play Exiles were published by Padraic Colum in the 1951 Viking Press editionof the play and were calledby Joyce scholars Magalaner and Kain "the most valuable of recent Joyce discoveries." The unedited and unpublished manuscripts include twenty-two leaves of notes, written before October 1904 apparently for use in early drafts of A Portrait of the Artist. More importantly, eleven separate manuscripts contain drafts of seven of the episodes of Ulysses and are invaluable to a study of thatwork. These include a complete early draft of the"Proteus" episode andtwo different versions of the "Oxen of the Sun" episode. There are also sixty-seven small notebooksfull of notes for Finnegans Wake and one notebook of more than a thousand pages containing notes for each of Joyce's works, as well as what may be the earliest draft of the first pages of Finnegans Wake. This large notebook is now being edited for publication by Professor Connolly in a labor whose complexity can only be fully appreciated by those aware of the difficulty of the book for which the notes are intended. What Chancellor Capen said in 1948, that the collection, although "legally the University's property" nevertheless belongs "to the future", is still true, as the singers of schools yet to come visit this library as they visit other great libraries to study the monuments of the past's magnificence here preserved. 9 �Thomas E. Connolly transcribes the large notebook which Joyce kept for Finnegans Wake. Translations in various languages of X Portrait of The Artist, Ulysses, and Dubliners. When Chauncey B. Tinker, Yale's distinguished professor emeritus, bibliophile, and Keeper of Rare Books, came upon a choice and costly volume that he wished to add to that university's collection,he would—sic esl fama —"seize" it, thrust it into the drawer of his desk, and then take efficient steps to raise the moneyfor it. Although this was only yesterday, it was still in an era when a few academic institutionsin this country, supported byprincely endowments and munificent benefactors, virtually controlled the market in rare books and manuscripts. Today every self-respecting university that wishes to keep its shutters up and shop doors open to vital scholarship must continually add to its library's collections. Autres temps, autres moeurs. With the increased competition for an ever-decreasing commodity, the importance of individual enterprise has multiplied. The Lockwood Memorial Library has not been sluggish in this international books race. Under the able and tireless guidance of its director emeritus, Professor Charles D. Abbott, and with the liberal support of a growing number of friends and alumni, it has been actively engaged for over twenty-five years in building up its well-known collection of American and English poetry, as well, of course, as its equally wellknown collection of Joyceiana. It was in this tradition offree enterprise that two friends of the University and Professor Oscar A. Silverman, chairman of the Department of English, Mr. Abbott's recently appointed successor as director of libraries, and himself a former student of Mr. Tinker, apprised of the 10 Tke SylviaCBoelactihn availability in Paris of almost the last great cache of James Joyce manuscripts and other materials in private hands, acted promptly. Boarding a jet plane at Idlewild in December 1958,they presented themselves in a matter of hours at the apartment of Sylvia Beach in the rue de l'Ode'on. Here was a post-Newtonian triumph over time and space that would have appealed to Joyce himself, whose introduction of psychic flux added a new dimension to the novel. Miss Beach, thefounder and owner of the bookshop, Shakespeare and Company, thatLeft Bank "home away from home" of countless American and British writers, journalists, and expatriates, was the publisher in 1922 of the first edition of Joyce's Ulysses. As a consequence of this trans-Atlantic mission, Miss Beach's collection of Joyce manuscripts, typescripts, page proofs, first editions,variant printings, translations, photographs, and memorabilia has been acquired by the Lockwood Memorial Library as the generous and anonymous gift of Professor Silverman's traveling companions, a Buffalo scientist and his wife. The collection did not arrive in this country for nearly a year after the original discussion had taken place. Miss Beach had already consented to organize an exhibition, "Les Annees Vingt: les Ecrivains Americains a Paris et Leurs Amis, 1920-1930," which was given in Paris from March 11 to April 25, 1959 under the auspices of "Le Centre Culturel Americain" and to which she loaned many items from her collection. Necessitating further delay were legal details arising from such a gift and the transfer �Peter Spielberg describes his dissertation project, the cataloging ofthe two collections. An enlarged page ofthe "AnnaLivia Plurabelle" passage in Joyce's Finnegans Wake. of the collection from one country to another. Legal counsel was furnished by Mr. Morris L. Ernst, appropriately enough, since it was he who prepared the brief for the defense in the famous lawsuit over the American publication of Ulysses, that culminated in the Hon. John M. Woolsey's verdict of acquittal on December 6, 1933. When the collection finally arrived at the University in two large packing cases and a heavy suitcase, the by then Pavlovian expectations of resident scholars were not disappointed. On exhibition through April 2nd in the Lockwood Memorial Library is a large selection of the new materials, handsomely arranged by David L. Posner and Anna A. Russell of the Poetry Room staff. As thevisitor strolls from onecase to another of this exhibition, he is repeatedly struck by the personal, intimate quality of the collection. Itfurnishes a unique record of Joyce's association and friendship with Sylvia Beach, beginning with their casual meeting in the summer of 1920 and continuing—if not to say, persevering—into the thirties. It is the history of mutual dedication to a single cause, the promotion of James Joyce, marked on both sides by selflessness in the largest sense. When the cause had triumphed, the partnership of author and publisher— always a brilliant and courageous expedient—terminated by mutual consent. Included in the collection, although not yet arrived in Buffalo, are about 150 letters, dating from 1922 to 1930, from Joyce to Miss Beach. Written for the most part while he was on holiday in various countries, they concern personal affairs: his eyes, his works, hisfamily; some contain amusing anecdotes, puns, and verses which he loved to share with friends; and many relate to Finnegans Wake, the "Work in Progress" on which he labored at the cost of his eyesight for many years after the publication of Ulysses. In addition to the copy of Ulysses in blue morocco, No. 2 of the deluxe edition of 100, together with the pen with which Joyce inscribed the volume when he presented it to his publisher on the date of publication, there are countless other presentation volumes, many heretofore unpublished photographs, and other "souvenirs" of a collaboration at once practical and exalted. Miss Beach's latest, but assuredly not last, service to Joyce takes the form of innumerable notations in her neat, small hand, identifying and explaining the several thousand separate pieces in the collection. In themselves they provide an initialand invaluable editing. The collection documents with photographs and memorabilia not only Joyce's association with Shakespeare and Company but also that with numerous literati and artists of the time. Most of these he met through Miss Beach or her close friend and vis-a-vis, Adrienne Monnier,who presided overthe French counterpart of Shakespeare & Co., "La Maison dcs Amis dcs Livres," directly opposite in the rue de l'Ode'on. The inner circle included, among other luminaries, Valery Larbaud, Ezra Pound, John Quinn, Ford Madox Ford, Gertrude Stein, Alice Toklas, Robert McAlmon, Sherwood Anderson, Ernest Photos—Robert V. S. Hengerer 11 �THE SYLVIA BEACH COLLECTION {continued) Hemingway, Archibald MacLeish, Eugene and Maria Jolas, the Crosbys, Harry and Caresse, George Antheil, and Brancusi. Frantically devoted to the person of Joyce and from thefirst encounter convinced of his genius, they were the charter members of "Joyce and Company," that fraternal order which threatens to become the "Browning Society" of the mid-century. Contributing still further to the personal, autobiographical nature of the collection are many photographs of Joyce and his family: his wife Nora andtwo children, Lucia and Georgio. These, showing Joyce in the several European cities in which he lived, supplement the formal portraits of the Joyce family and other photographs in the Wickser collection and provide with these earlier acquisitions materials for an exten- sive iconography. The emphasis upon the "intimacy" of the Sylvia Beach collection is not intended to minimize its as yet inestimable value to scholars and critics. Outstanding are the materials relating to the composition and publication of Ulysses. To list some of these, one finds a plan of the novel in Italian(probably a unique copy); numerous early manuscript drafts of the "Cyclops," "Circe," "Penelope," and other episodes, supplementing the Library's earlier holdings; over 1200page in typescript, with manuscript corrections and additions, of these and still other sections of Ulysses; some 800 page proofs with profuse marginalia in Joyce's hand and bon a tirer ("O.K. to print") inscribed by both Joyce and Sylvia Beach; a copybook containing in Joyce's handhis chronological arrangement of Shakespeare's plays and their original productionsfor use in the "Scylla and Charybdis" episode; and a manuscript on vellum entitled "Post Ulixem Scriptum (Air: Molly Brannigan)," Joyce's adaptation of the famous Irish songfor Molly Bloom,which he gave to Miss Beach after relating to her his dream about the novel's heroine. The most diverting, if not the most valuable, item in this group is a memorandum for a telegram in Joyce's hand and over the name "Beach" to the Darantiere Press in Dijon, which printed Ulysses. As if Miss Beach had not been sufficiently plagued in her efforts to locate a printer for the work, secure the right paper and ink—for Joyce was very particular about this—, recruit subscribers, and meet expenses, theFrench printers were diligently correcting in the manuscript what they took to be Joyce's errors in spelling. Back went the firm, cautionary instructions: "Every word inquired about this morning to be printed as shown in last 'signatures' Distortions 'trait union' etcetera done on purpose by the author." To remind one that Joyce is above all a poet and must be heard to be fully enjoyed, there are two phonograph records: one of Joyce reading from the 12 "Aeolus" episode of Ulysses and another of him reading in the brogue of an Irishwasherwoman the "Anna Livia Plurabelle" section of the Wake. For the second reading, C. K. Ogden, the inventor of "Basic English"—"this strait jacket of the English language" in Miss Beach's phrase—made photographic enlargements of the text so that Joyce, whose sight was failing, could see the text. If the Sylvia Beach Collection of James Joycefocuses, as is logical, on Ulysses, which she single-handedly made available to posterity, it is by no means limited to this work. The contents range from the earliest and most ephemeral pieces, the work of Joyce's "left hand," through Pomes Penyeach, the "baker's dozen" of lyrics published by Miss Beach in 1927, to Finnegans Wake. From Dublin and 1901 comes the juvenile essay, "The Day of the Rabblement," printed in a pamphlet entitled Two Essays, while Joyce was still a student. Among the many limericks, occasional verses, and lampoons, often in manuscript, is the broadside, Gasfrom a Burner, which Joyce had printed for distribution in Dublin after the entireedition of Dubliners had been burned at the printing house by the order of an unknown person. Although Joyce's talents as a poet are more apparent in his prose writings than in his verse, this pasquil is not without its Swiftian broadness and bite. Completing this veritable Joyce "museum" and occupying several cases in the present exhibition are the many translations of Joyce's works into Swedish, German, Spanish, French, Danish, Polish, Czech, German, Japanese, and other languages. Only Joyce himself, who had mastered nine languages and had supported himself and family by teaching in a Berlitz School, could have fully enjoyed the perplexity his own linguistic experiments must have caused his translators. In concluding his delightful talk on "James Joyce in Paris" at the opening of the current exhibition, Jean Jacques Mayoux of the University of Paris, at that time visiting Jones Professor of French, offered what is at once a fitting epitaph for Joyce the man and a fitting epigraph for this monument to Joyce the genius. He observed that, whereas Joyce's mortal remains lie buried obscurely in Zurich, Switzerland, that part of him which remains immortal rests, among two or three other places in the world, here in Buffalo. As for the role of the Sylvia Beach Collection in the University's future, it is once again Mr. Tinker who returns with the last poised, incontrovertible word: There are three distinguishing marks of a University: a group of students, a corps of instructors, and a collection of books; and of these three the most important is the collection of books. �ptj lnsjA-oiprv B -flsojiw .

Mogavero, BA '58 Editor The Sport of Moonshooting WHEN MEMBERS of an organization register at a hotel under the name, "Moonshooter," you can imagine the awesome reaction of the hotel clerks. Invariably someone asks, "How are things at Canaveral?" Those who saw last year's special issue on "The College Teacher," know that "Moonshooter," has little to do with space travel, but is an editorial staff conceived three years ago by a group of alumni magazine editors who felt that only through a cooperativepooling of funds could alumni magazines realize their full potential of service to theirreaders and their institutions. For the first two years, editors published Moonshooter in their spare time, but the project became so successful that last summer, the editors organized a non-profit organization through which to carry on the Moonshooter project. Its title: Editorial Projects for Education. This issue of the Alumni Bulletin includes the 1960 Moonshooter supplement, "The Alumnus/A." The rest of the Bulletin is devoted to telling the story of UB alumni. Truly a symbol of all UB alumni who have held their alma mater dear to their hearts is Asa Bertram Lemon (see cover). He has contributed his time and energy for the past 47 years, and indeed, must have felt like he was "shooting for the moon," back in 1926 when he was attempting to organize the alumni office. We're not suggesting that alumni engage in the popular sport of moonshooting in the astronautical sense, but we do encourage you to keep in contact with the University as it continues on its voyageto greater vistas ofknowledge.

IhESE ARE THE LETTERS on a clock in 213 Foster Hall. "They don't mean anything to anyone unless they graduated with me," reflects a twinkled-eyed man in a stylish gray flannel suit. "My graduating class gave this clock as a gift to the Buffalo Pharmacy College." Not all of us were around when Asa Bertram Lemon graduated back in 1913—but we all have known him through the years as "Doc Lemon." His loyalty and service to his alma mater has been a guidinglight to alumni everywhere. Dr. Lemon is a Canadian by birth, but he has lived in Buffalo since he was a small boy. His father was William E. Lemon, PhG'99; his step-mother is Gretta E. Moore, PhG'l9. "Doc" grew up in his father's drug store and when he became of college age, tookwhat money he had earned as a clerk in an automobile plant, and entered the University. He graduated in 1913, and three years later, won the degree of doctor of pharmacy from Boston School of Pharmacy. After a year with a pharmaceutical house, he returned here in 1916 to become assistant in the Department of Materia Medica. The next year he became an instructor and in 1921 hebecame a professor. For the next seventeen years he was secretary of the faculty—in 1936 he became dean. "Old guard" alumni remember the dean most for the many alumni activities where he was always behind the scenes. Hebecame the first alumni secretary (without pay) in 1926 and edited the first "Alumni News" until 1929. During these years he instigated the action for an alumni club, and General Hayes home, on North Street was purchased. He was a member of the Athletic Council, chairman of the Student Activities Committee, secretarytreasurer, vice-president, executive committee member, and trustee of the General Alumni Association and an elected member of the University Council. When Bill Cook was alumni secretary back in 1934, "The Bee," the student newspaper, carried a story on National Pharmacy Week. Bill wrote the following tribute to Dr. Lemon which sums up both student and alumni feeling about this outstanding alumnus: "IfI may be forgiven for areverse play on words, the university picked no lemon when it picked him. As the toastmaster of an alumni dinner down Syracuse way once said in introducing him: 'He may be a lemon in name, but to us he is a peach—velvet on theoutside, all gold inside, solid to the core!' That was when Bert Lemon was alumni secretary, and used to sandwich in between his official and unofficial duties, frequent visits in the alumni field. Sometimes he brought the Glee Club with him. Sometimes it was the chancellor. But more often he was the sole attraction, and he never failed to have an audience, nor to hold one. Not that he was an orator—ambassadors are seldom that. But every listener caught something of that spirit which all his life has kept him up to his midriff in voluntary pursuits among students and alumni." It was this great alumni esteem that prompted the first Samuel Paul Capen Award, theannual honor named after the retiring chancellor for service to the University. The award was presented to Dean Lemon at the 1lth annual dinner of the General Alumni Board in 1950. The citation read: "One needs only to mention his name to bring a flood of significant recollections to thousands of alumni who have come to know and value his leadership in alumni and university affairs." In his acceptance speech, Dr. Lemon observed that "the greatest asset of a university is its alumni—and I will continue to be loyal to The University ofBuffalo (continuedon page28) Photo—Lynn Eidenier 3 �theChangialumniscen "Where once Audio-Vsal UB Phot— Qllfhnr Tl"lf» 1 11C U.ULIIUI THE of this article is Director of Alumni Relations for the past fiveyears, Theodore J. Siekmann. STUDENT WHO attends the University does not merely enroll in courses, —he joins a family. He joins the University community. He becomes an alumnus. He may be a student for four years more or less, but he becomes an alumnusfor life! The changing scene on the alumni front reflects the changes in the University. As the campus has changed, from downtown to campus, from streetcar to dormitory and parking lots, as the numbers and courses have ex- panded, the need for informing alumni has increased. There is much progress for the alumnus to understand, extending from the Medical School of 1846 to University College of 1960. The question ofwhich came first, "The Chicken or the Egg" certainly does not apply to a college and its alumni. Without the college or university, there would be no alumni. This foster mother (of us all) is still most important and our kinship should always be one ofdevotion. 4 It was in February of 1871 when U.B. alumni first met, 28 years after the founding of the Medical School. There were 1000 alumni and these early pioneers of the Medical School, four years later, incorporated on January 5,1875. Now celebrating its 85th anniversary, theassociation has met almost every year with a scientific program usually the highlight of the occasion. In the oratory common in those early days, retiring presidents gave the "Address to the Alumni" frequently referring to Alma Mater's foster children as, "These are my jewels". The second toast (of fourteen) at the Charter dinner was: "To the memory of Millard Fillmore, who for twenty-eight years was the honored Chancellor of our University." The professional schools of Pharmacy (1886), Law (1887) and Dentistry (1892) followed in turn and organized associations and alumni clinical days. Dentistry recently had its 56th annual "Clinical" meeting. Alumni activity was centralized for the first time by formation of the General Alumni Association in 1915. It coordinated alumni activity. The alumni magazine, the Alumni fund and "University Day," February 22 were started at this time. This was approximately the time of the beginning of theArts and Sciences College. Federation stimulated a great deal of activity and organization of area clubs in Elmira, Rochester, Syracuse and New York. This surge of interest for all-university loyalty, although interrupted by World War I, no doubt, led to the organization of "The Alumni Club" in 1921. Under the leadership of Walter Platt Cooke, the club with 800 members purchased the beautiful estate of General Hayes on North Street (opposite the Lenox Hotel). Although the Club filled a long felt need, it fell victim to the "depression" and, unable to bear its financial burden, ended existence in 1932. The Alumni Council, which included alumni members of the University Council, was organized in 1933. To this group was assigned the opening and supervision of an alumni office. A short time later, in 1940, The General Alumni Association and The Alumni Council combined forces when the General Alumni Board was formed with the approval of the University Council. This board became the alluniversity representative organization whose Executive Committee directs the all-university Alumni Association at the present time. Ithas been pointed out that alumni activity at Buffalo has had a long and growing history. As we face the changes,—we wonder what effect dormitory living(about �the Indian trod the silent wood" Total Enrollment Total Spent Total Income Total Floor Space 1500 students in 1960) will bring in alumni organization. Certainly the facilities of living on campus, if available for Alumni Weekend and Alumni College, indicates a greater expansion of these activities in the future. As the facilities of the Music school become incorporated into the Alumni programs, a new and bright future can be envisioned. When the Nuclear Research alumni convene we can expect great things in science. As the University Theatre becomes available, what additional programs we can look forward to. These will be the focal points of the continuing education to which "Alumni College" is dedicated. We can rally around the slogan—"A Great Uni- versity Means a Great Community" as our academic development program achieves greater success. Alumni Homecoming in the fall will grow around the growing athletic progress and renown of the football team. Juneweekend will aboundwith attractive programs for class reunions. It has been said that "The very survival of western civilization as we know it, may depend on the strength and quality of American higher education." The changing alumni scene challenges the alumnus to aid in the effectiveness of public understanding, and willingness to support the University in achieving that goal. 5 �RURAL WESTERN Pennsylvania where I was raised, large families were not uncommon. And having numerouschildren was not a bad investment economically. Farmers of moderate means seldom bought annuities or old age insurance. It was assumed that strong sons and daughters would do more and more ofthe work as they grew up, and "pa" and "ma" had no fears about their declining years. The kids would take care of them. Then came the revolution! Bright lights and cash pay attracted the young folks to the cities. "Pa" and "ma" were left without their old age insurance except in cases in which the dutiful children sent back a part of their If you can't keep 'em down on the IN farm... earnings.

However, even more serious is the losing of a sense of obligation on the part of the graduates. Colleges do not expect their graduates to hover over the campus after commencement day, butwhether or not they support their alma mater affects the difference between her normal existence and "operation poor house." Fortunately the University ofBuffalo has thousands of alumni still living in Western New York not so distant from thecampus that continuing interest is negatedby the space factor. Therefore, our problem offinancial assistance by our alumni hinges on interest in theserious needs ofthis non-tax supported institution. We have found at the University of Buffalo that our alumni do not mind sacrifices "for mother" if a real necessity is proved. For example, when we launched our current Development Campaign early in 1958 a "must program" was outlined. As soon as money started to flow in, buildings started to rise—a Hall of Chemistry, and a Health Sciences Building—so that all could see that urgent needs were being filled. Promises to donors were kept, and the $583,878.82 which alumni contributed to the Program for Progress in the past two years was memorialized in "towers of learning." The blooming of new buildings on the beautiful green UB campus has become big news in Western New York and has aroused justifiable pride in thehearts ofthousands of Alumni. At the present time an Academic Development Plan is being shaped up, stressing improvement of the faculty situation as well as strengthening the library and other study facilities. Every former student is aware that a university must have buildings, teachers, and books. The need for better pay for college professors is so well known that it will not take much persuading to get across the point that this need is really "a necessity." During the first year of the Development Campaign the pressure for helping the Loyalty Fund was lifted, but during the year 1959 gifts were solicited and $21,244.78 flowed in. The Fund has recently been renamed General �Alumni Loyalty Gift, and sons and daughters of U.B. are asking their former classmates to help pay for "necessary needs." Contributions to the 1960 General Alumni Loyalty Gift will be used to support the undergraduate divisions which are the backbone of the University and without which the University and its professional schools cannot exist. The Gift has the distinct advantage ofallowing the contributor to support the project or projects of his or her choice. The word "loyalty" takes as many meanings as there are persons, but all add up to one thing: a desire to help the University that helped them. One of the finest records of alumni giving at the University hasbeen established by theMedical Fund. In fiscal 1959 the Annual Participating Fund for Medical Education turned in over $108,000. Since its inception in 1954 the Fund has collected over $500,000—an enviable record, indeed. Through aid from the Fund, a Biophysics Department in the School of Medicine was established last year. In addition to this important milestone in medical education, the Participating Fund has made possible the addition of ten new faculty members and salary increases for another twenty faculty members. Possibly the Fund's most important contribution to the School of Medicine is that it has made possible the increase from 70 to 80 new medical students each year. The School of Medicine iraj the University in the first decades after its establishment in 1846. Its alumni have won professional distinction throughout the land and have a deep sense of pride in their calling and in their School. Their leadership has been brilliant, and it is appropriate that the doctors of medicine should be the pacesetters for annual giving. The "Dents" have also demonstrated their "tighter ties" to their Alma Mater and generously gave $32,000 through their Annual Participating Fund for Dental Education in 1959. Their program for the future is indeed ambitious. It includes the strengthening of the Dental Faculty through the addition of new full-time staff members, who in turn, will be able to provide new postgraduate as well as undergraduate courses. Pharmacy grads are making commendable progress on their Annual Participating Fund and contributed over $11,200 during the past calendar year. This money is being put to good use, primarily to strengthen the pharmacy sequence by the acquisition of "clinical instruction." High caliber practicing pharmacists come to the School ofPharmacy on a part time basis for laboratory instruction in the dispensing and orientation courses. This enables the achievement of a continuing partnership between the academic program and the professional and practical aspects ofPharmaceutical Education. At the moment the attorneys are organizing their Law Fund and a fourth professional school will benefit from the concerted efforts of its alumni. Proceeds of the Fund will be used in various ways to strengthen thelaw faculty, underwrite postgraduate programs and otherwise enhance the services of the Law School to the bar and the public. These objectives do credit to the legal profession in Western New York, and promise increasingly high standards of legal practice and administration of justice throughout theregion. It is very fortunate that the University can call on sons and daughters of varying professional interests to support their own. The group feeling is commendably intense, and the tighter ties pay greater dividends. Perhaps the graduates of the professions are quicker to realize that their degrees appreciate in value as the reputations of their respective schools are heightened. Certainly there are many facets to the feelings of pride and loyalty which prompt this kind of continuing and generous giving. From our high school days we remember the football yell: "Two-four-six-eight, who do we appreciate? Team! Team! Team!" The teen-age kids appreciated most the team thatmade touchdowns. We who labor in the fund-raising department are constantly on the spot because the results of various campaigns are always tallied up in dollars and cents. No fantasy can surround the results. A privately supported University must obtain private support, or it ceases to exist, for tuition is never enough. If alumni do not take the leadership on the fund-raising team, there are no touchdowns, and the yell of "appreciation" has an empty ring. It is basic that good varsity football teams start with freshmen teams. We have been a little slow in realizing that good alumni teams also start when the grads are not grads but freshmen. That is when the collegiate learning operation starts and loyalties take root, too. We like to think that the intent of every student is to he can and give all he can as far as his relationships with his school are concerned. All of the elements of getting and giving are relative. Some derive great benefits from their college education; others less! They may or may not be in a position to offer munificent gifts. However, if the spirit is right, eventual success in financial support is assured. get all Thomas Jefferson, the Father of the University of Virginia, once wrote immortal words which would make an appropriate oath for University of Buffalo students who are intensely sensitive in their relationship to their educational parent: "We mutually pledge to each other our lives, our fortunes, and our sacred honor!" The spirit of the Declaration of Independence is the spirit which will keep our University independent if enough alumni are so imbued. 7 �For the first time, an all-alumni dinner will kick-off the Weekend, Friday evening in Norton Hall. Division associations like Pharmacy, Nursing and Business Administration will be on hand to present annual awards and hold meetings after the banquet. Because of its great success thelast two years, the"Alumni College" Saturday morning will be expanded. The Planning Committee consisting of Raymond Ewell, vice-chancellor for research, and G. Forest Hill, Melvin H. Baker associate professor ofAmerican enterprise, have announced that the topic for the lectures will be "Frontiers of Understanding." After the senior class induction ceremony, alumni and graduates will socialize at the annual TUNK and Carnival to be held in the areas near the Tower. Pony rides, a carousel, fire engine rides, swimming andbaseball will entertain the children. Saturday evening the Alumnae will be hostesses at the Alumni Dance at the University Club.

It is directed to you as an alumnus or alumna. As such, you are one of the most important persons in American education today. You are important to American education, and to your alma mater, for a varietyofreasons, not all ofwhich may be instantly apparent to you. You are important, first, because you are the principal product ofyour alma mater—the principal claim she can make to fame. To a degree that few suspect, it is by its alumni that an educational institution is judged. And few yardsticks could more accurately measure an institution's This true worth. You are important to American education, further, because of the support you give to it. Financial support comes immediately to mind: the money that alumni are giving to the schools, colleges, and universities they once �selves. Unlike most other forms of human enterprise, educational institutions are not in business for what they themselves can get out of it. They exist so that free people, through education, can keep civilization on the forward move. Those who ultimately do this are their alumni. Thus only through its alumni can a school or a college or a university truly fulfill itself. Chancellor Samuel B. Gould, of the University ofCalifornia, put it this way: "The serious truth of the matter is that you are the distilled essence of the university, for you are its product and the basis for its reputation. If anything lasting is to be achieved by us as a community of scholars, it must in most instances be reflected in you. If we are to win intellectual victories or make cultural advances, it must be through your good offices and your beliefin our mission." The italics are ours. The mission is yours and ours attended hasreached an impressive sum, larger than that received from any other source ofgifts. Itis indispensable. But the support you give in other forms is impressive and indispensable, also. Alumni push and guide the legislative programs that strengthen the nation's publicly supported educational institutions. They frequently act as academic talent scouts for their alma maters, meeting and talking with the college-bound high school students in their communities. They are among the staunchest defenders of high principles in education—e.g., academic freedom—even when such defense may not be the "popular" posture. The list is long; yet every year alumni are finding ways to extend it. the hundreds of colleges and universities and secondary schools from which they came, alumni areimportant in another way—onethathas nothing to do with what alumni can do for theinstitutions them- To together. PHIL S ROBET Alma Mater ... At an alumni-alumnae meeting in Washington, members sing the old school song. The purpose of this meeting was to introduce the institution to high school boys and girls who, with their parents, were present as the club's guests. "ALUMN USA �Alumnus+alumnus=alumni-or does it? Many people cling to popular view of you, an alumnus or alumna, is a puzzling thing. That the view is highly illogical seems only to add to its popularity. That its elements are highly contradictory seems to bother no one. Here is the paradox: Individually you, being an alumnus or alumna, are among the most respected and sought-after of beings. People expect ofyou (and usually get) leadership or intelligent followership. They appoint you to positions of trust in business and government and stake the nation's very survival on your school- and college-developed abilities. Ifyou enter politics, your educational pedigree is freely discussed and frequently boasted about, even in precincts where candidates once took pains to conceal any education beyond the sixth grade. In clubs, parent-teacher associations, churches, labor unions, you are considered to be the brains, the backbone, the eyes, the ears, and the neckbone—the latter to be stuck out, for alumni are expected to be intellectually adventurous as well as to exercise other attributes. But put you in an alumni club, or back on campus for a reunion or homecoming, and the popular respect—yea, awe—turns to chuckles and ho-ho-ho. The esteemed individual, when bunched with other esteemed individuals, becomes in the popular image the subject of quips, a candidate for the funny papers. He is now imagined to be a person whose interests stray no farther than the degree of baldness achieved by his classmates, or the success in marriage and child-bearing achieved by her classmates, or therecord run up last season by thealma mater's football or field-hockey team. He is addicted to funny hats decorated with his class numerals, she to daisy chainmaking and to recapturing the elusive delights ofthe junior-class The hoop-roll. Ifhe should encounter his old professor ofphysics, he is supposedly careful to confine the conversation to reminiscences about the time Joe or Jane Wilkins, with spectacular results, tried to disprove the validity of Newton's third law. To ask the old gentleman about the implications of the latest research concerning anti-matter would be, it is supposed, a most serious breach of the Alumni Reunion Code. Such a view of organized alumni activity might be dismissed as unworthy of note, but for one disturbing fact: among its most earnest adherents are a surprising number ofalumni and alumnae themselves. the odd notion that in this case Permit us to lay the distorted image torest, with theaid of the rites conducted by cartoonist Mark Kelley on the following pages. To do so will not necessitate burying the class banner or interring the reunion hat, nor is there a need to disband the homecoming dayparade. The simple truth is that the serious activities oforganized alumni far outweigh the frivolities—in about the same proportion as the average citizen's, or unorganized alumnus's, party-going activities are outweighed by his less festive pursuits. Look, for example, at the activities of the organized alumni ofa large and famous state university in the Midwest. The former students of this university are often pictured as football-mad. And there is no denying that, to manyof them, there is no more pleasant wayof spending an autumn Saturday than witnessing a victory by the home team. But by far the great bulk of alumni energy on behalf of the old school is invested elsewhere: ► Every year the alumni association sponsors a recognition dinner to honor outstanding students—those with a scholastic average of3.5 (B+) or better. This has proved to be a most effective way of showing students that academic prowess is valued above all else by the institution and its alumni. ► Every year the alumni give five "distinguished teaching awards"—grants of $1,000 each to professors selected by their peers for outstanding performance in the classroom. ► An advisory board of alumni prominent in various fields meets regularly to consider the problems of the university: the quality ofthe course offerings, the caliber of the students, and a variety of other matters. They report directly to the university president, in confidence. Their work has been salutary. When the university's school ofarchitecture lost its accreditation, for example, the efforts of the alumni advisers were invaluable in getting to the root of the trouble and recommending measures by which accreditation could be regained. ► The efforts of alumni have resulted in the passage of urgently needed, but politically endangered, appropriations by the state legislature. ► Some 3,000 ofthe university'salumni act each yearas volunteer alumni-fund solicitors, making contacts with 30,000 of the university's former students. Nor is this a particularly unusual list of alumni accomplishments.

The alumni ofone institution took it upon themselves to survey the federal income-tax laws, as they affected parents' ability to finance their children's education, and then,in a nationwide campaign, pressed for needed reforms. In a score of cities, the alumnae ofa women's college annually sell tens of thousands of tulip bulbs for their alma mater's benefit; in eight years they have raised $80,000, not to mention hundreds ofthousands oftulips. Other institutions' alumnae stage house and garden tours, organize used-book sales, sell nocked Christmas trees, sponsor theatrical benefits. Name a worthwhile activity and someone is probably doing it, for faculty salaries or building funds or student scholarships. Drop in on a reunion or a local alumni-club meeting, and you may well find that the superficial programs of of organized alumni activity—in clubs,at reunions—lies new seriousness nowadays, and a substantial record of service to American education. seminars, lectures, laboratory demonstrations, and even week-long short-courses. Visit the local high school during the season when the senior students are applying for admission to college—and trying to find their way through dozens ofcollege catalogues, each describing a campus paradise—and you will find alumni on hand to help the student counselors. Nor are they high-pressure salesmen for their own alma mater and disparagers of everybody else's. Often they can, and do, perform their highest service to prospective students by advising them to apply somewhere else. yore have been replaced by achievements, in short,belie the popular image. And ifno one elserealizes this, or cares, one group should: the alumni and alumnae themselves. Too many of them may be shying away from a good thing because they think that being an "active" alumnus means wearing a funny hat. The �Why they comeback �The popular view �Money! Last year, educational institutions from any other source of gifts. Alumni support is Without the dollars that their alumni contrib- ute each year, America's privately supported educational institutions would be in serious difficulty today. And the same would be true of the nation's publicly supported institutions, without the support of alumni in legislatures and elections at which appropriationsor bond issues are at stake. For the private institutions, the financial support received from individual alumni often means the difference between an adequate or superior faculty and one that is underpaid and understaffed; between a thriving scholarship program and virtually none at all; between wellequipped laboratories and obsolete, crowded ones. For tax-supportedinstitutions, which in growing numbers are turning to their alumni for direct financial support, such aid makes it possible to give scholarships, grant loans to needy students, build such buildings as student unions, and carry on research for which legislative appropriations do not provide. To gain an idea of the scope of the support which alumni give—and of how much that is worthwhile in American education depends upon it—consider this statistic, unearthed in a current survey of 1,144 schools, junior colleges, colleges, and universities in the United States and Canada: in just twelve months, alumni gave their alma maters more than $199 million. They were the largestsingle source of gifts. Nor was this thekind ofsupport thatis given once, perhaps as theresult of a high-pressure fund drive,and never heard of again. Alumni tend to give funds regularly. In the past year, theycontributed $45.5 million, on an annual gift basis, to the 1,144 institutions surveyed. To realize that much annual income from investments in blue-chip stocks, the institutions would haveneeded over 1.2billion more dollars in endowment funds than they actually possessed. giving is not a new phenomenon on the American educational scene (Yale alumni ■*■ ■*■ founded the first annual college fund in 1890,and Mount Hermon was the first independent secondary school to do so, in 1903). But not until fairly recently did annual giving become the main element in education's financial survival kit. The development was logical. Big endowments had been affected by inflation. Big private philanthropy, affected by the graduated income and in- A nnual alumni ZA heritance taxes, was no longer able to do the job alone. Yet, with the growth of science and technology and democratic concepts of education, educational budgets had to be increased to keep pace. Twenty years before Yale's first alumni drive, a professor in New Haven foresaw the possibilities and looked into the minds of alumni everywhere: "No graduate ofthe college," he said, "has ever paid in fullwhat it cost the college to educate him. A part of the expense was borne by the funds given by former benefactors of the institution. "A great many can never pay the debt. A very few can, in their turn, become munificent benefactors. There is a very large number, however, between these two, who can, and would cheerfully, give according to their ability in order that the college might hold the same relative position to future generations which it held to their own." The first Yale alumni drive, seventy years ago, brought in $11,015. In 1959 alone, Yale's alumni gave more than $2 million. Not only at Yale, but at the hundreds ofother institutions which have established annual alumni funds in the intervening years, the feeling ofindebtedness and the concern for future generations which the Yale professor foresaw have spurred alumni to greater and greater efforts in this enterprise. and money from alumni is a powerful magnet: it draws more. Not onlyhave more than eighty business corporations, led in 1954 by General Electric, established the happy custom of matching, dollar for dol- Z\ -^- -^ lar, the gifts that their employees (and sometimes their employees' wives) give to their alma maters; alumni giving is also a measure applied by many business men and by philanthropic foundations in determining how productive their organizations' gifts to an educational institution are likely to be. Thus alumni giving, as Gordon K. Chalmers, the late president of Kenyon College, described it, is "the veryrock on which all other giving must rest. Giftsfrom outside the family depend largely—sometimes wholly—on the degree of alumni support." The "degree of alumni support" is gauged not by dollars alone. The percentage of alumni who are regular givers is also a key. And here therecord is not as dazzling as the dollar figures imply. Nationwide, only one in five alumni of colleges, universities, and prep schools gives to his annual alumni �\ received more of it from their alumni than * now education's strongest financial rampart fund. The actual figure last year was 20.9 per cent. Allowing for theinevitable few who are disenchanted with their alma maters' cause,* and for those who spurn all fund solicitations, sometimes with heavy scorn,-f and for those whom legitimate reasons prevent from giving financial aid,§ the participation figure is still low. memo: fromWives to Why? Perhaps because the non-participants imagine their institutions to be adequately financed. (Virtually without exception, in both privateand tax-supported institutions, this is—sadly—not so.) Perhaps because they believe their small gift—a dollar, or five, or ten—will be insignificant. (Again, most emphatically, not so. Multiply the 5,223,240 alumni who gave nothing to their alma maters last year by as little as one dollar each, and the figure still comes to thousands of additional scholarships for deserving students or substantial payincreases for thousands ofteachers who may, at this moment, be debating whether they can afford to continue teaching next year.) By raising the percentage of participation in alumni fund drives, alumni can materially improve their alma maters' standing. That dramatic increases in participation can be brought about, and quickly, is demonstrated by the case ofWofford College, a small institution in South Carolina. Until several years ago, Wofford received annual gifts from only 12 per cent of its 5,750 alumni. Then Roger Milliken, a textile manufacturer and a Wofford trustee, issued a challenge: for every percentagepoint increase over 12per cent, he'd give $1,000. After the alumni were finished, Mr. Milliken cheerfully turned over a check for $62,000. Wofford's alumni had raised their participation in the annual fund to 74.4 per cent—a new national record. "It was a remarkable performance," observed the American Alumni Council. "Its impact on Wofford will be feltfor manyyears to come." And what Wofford's alumnicould do, your institution's alumni could probably do, too. * Wrote one alumnus: "I see that Stanfordis makinggreat progress. However,I am opposed to progressin any form.

Husbands ► Women's colleges, as a group, have had a unique problem in fund-raising—and they wish they knew how to solve it. The loyalty of their alumnae in contributing money each year—an average of 41.2 per cent tookpart in 1959 —is nearly double the national average for all universities, colleges, junior colleges, and privately supported secondary schools. But the size of the typical gift is often smaller than one might expect. Why? The alumnae say thatwhile husbands obviously place a high value on the products of the women's colleges, many underestimate the importance of giving women's colleges the same degree ofsupport they accord their own alma maters. This, some guess, is a holdover from the days when higher education for women was regarded as a luxury, while higher education for men was considered a sine qua non for business and professional careers. As a result, again considering the average, women's colleges must continue to cover much of their operating expense from tuition fees. Such fees are generally higher than those chargedby men's or coeducational institutions, and the women's colleges are worried about the social and intellectual implications of this fact. They have no desire to be the province solely of children of the well-to-do; higher education for women is no longer a luxury to be reserved to thosewho can pay heavy fees. Since contributions to education appear to be one area of family budgets still controlled largely by men, the alumnae hope that husbands will take serious note of the women's colleges' claim to a larger share of it. They may be starting to do so: from 1958 to 1959, the average gift to women's colleges rose 22.4 per cent. But it still trails the average gift to men's colleges, private universities, and professional schools. �KKH HARTMAKN, MAONCM for the educational institutions, Public kind of service a special supportededucational institutions owe a special kind of debt to their alumni. Many people imagine that the public institutions have no financial worries, thanks to a steady flow of tax dollars. Yet they actually lead a perilous fiscal existence, dependent upon annual or biennial appropriations by legislatures. More than once, state and municipally supported institutions would have found themselves in serious straits if their alumni had not assumed a role of leadership. ► A state university in New England recently was put in academic jeopardybecause the legislature defeated a bill to provide increased salaries for faculty members. Then Publicly the university's "Associate Alumni" took matters into their hands. They brought the facts of political and academic life to the attention of alumni throughout the state, prompting them to write to their representatives in support of higher faculty pay. A compromise bill was passed, and salary increases were granted. Alumni action thus helped ease a crisis which threatened to do serious, perhaps irreparable, damage to the university. ► In a neighboring state, the public university receives only 38.3 per cent of its operating budget from state and federal appropriations.

Two years ago, graduates of its college of medicine gave $226,752 for a new medical center—the largest amount given by the alumni of any American medical school that year. ► Several years ago the alumni of six state-supported institutions in a midwestern state rallied support for a $150 million bond issue for higher education, mental health, and welfare—an issue that required an amendment to the state constitution. Of four amendments on the ballot, it was the only one to pass. ► In another midwestern state, action by an "Alumni Council for Higher Education," representing eighteen publicly supported institutions, has helped produce a $13 million increase in operatingfunds for 1959-61—the most significant increase ever voted for the state's system of higher education. alumni organizationsare forbidden to engage in political activity ofany kind.

"This is unfair," said a state-university alumni spokesman recently, "because this kind of activity is neither shady nor unnecessary. "But therestrictions —most of which I happen to think are nonsense—exist, nevertheless. Even so, individual alumni can make personal contacts with legislators in their home towns, if not at the State Capitol. Above all, in their contacts with fellow citizens—with people who influence public opinion—the alumni of state institutions must support their alma maters to an intense degree. They must make it their business to get straight information and spread it through their circles ofinfluence. "Since the law forbids us to organize such support, everyalumnus has to start this work, and continue it, on his own. This isn't something that most people do naturally—but theeducation oftheir own sons and daughters rests on their becoming aroused and doing it." ��HTAR BLACK WOLF, VDBHE a matter of Any Z\ worthwhile institution of higher education, one college president has said, lives "in chronic "*- tension with the society that supports it." Says The Campusand the State, a 1959 survey of academic freedom in which that president's words appear: "New ideas always run the risk of offending entrenched interests within the community. If higher education is to be successfulin its creative role it must be guaranteed some protection againstreprisal. .." The peril most frequently is budgetary: the threat of appropriations cuts, ifthe unpopular ideas are not abandoned; the real or imagined threat of a loss of publiceven alumni—sympathy. Probably the best protection against the danger of reprisals against free institutions of learning is their alumni: alumni who understand the meaning offreedom and give their strong and informed support to matters of educational principle. Sometimes such support is available in abundance and offered with intelligence. Sometimes—almost always because of misconception or failure to be vigilant—it is not. For example: ► An alumnus of one private college was a regular and heavy donor to theannual alumni fund. He was known to have provided handsomely for his alma mater in his will. But when he questioned his grandson, a student at the old school, he learned that an economics professor not only did notcondemn, but actually discussed the necessity for, thenational debt. Grandfather threatened towithdraw all support unless the professor ceased uttering such heresy or was fired. (The professor didn't and wasn't. The college is not yet certain where it stands in the gentleman's ■*■ will.) ► When no students from a certain county managed to meet the requirements for admission to a southwestern university's medicalschool, the county's angry delegate to the state legislature announced he was "out to get this guy"—the vice president in charge of the university's medical affairs, who had staunchly backed the medical school's admissions committee. The board of trustees of the university, virtually all of whom were alumni, joined other alumni and the local chapter of the American TJ J.QC3S principle Association of University Professors to rally successfully to the v.p.'s support. ► When the president of a publicly supported institution recently said he would have to limit the number of students admitted to next fall's freshman class if high academic standards were not to be compromised, some constituent-fearing legislators were wrathful. When the issue was explained to them, alumni backed the president's position—decisively. ► When a number of institutions (joined in December by President Eisenhower)opposed the "disclaimer affidavit" required of studentsseeking loans under theNational Defense Education Act, many citizens—including some alumni—assailed them for their stand against "swearing allegiance to the United States." The fact is, the disclaimer affidavitis not an oath of allegiance to the United States (which theEducation Act also requires, but which the colleges have not opposed). Fortunately, alumni who took the trouble to find out what the affidavit really was apparently outnumbered, by a substantial majority, those who leaped before they looked. Coincidentally or not, most of the institutions opposing the disclaimer affidavit received more money from their alumni during the controversy than ever before in their history. the future, as in the past, educational institutions worth their salt will be in themidst of controversy. Such is the nature of higher education: ideas are its merchandise, and ideas new and old are frequently controversial. An educational institution, indeed, may be doing its job badly if it is not involved in controversy, at times. If an alumnus never finds himself in disagreement with his alma mater, he has a right to question whether his alma mater is intellectually awake or dozing. To understand this is to understand the meaning of academic freedom and vitality. And, with such an understanding, an alumnus is equipped to give his highest service to higher education; to give his support to the principles which make-higher education free and effectual. If higher education is to prosper, it will need this kind ofsupportfrom its alumni—tomorrow even more than in its gloriously stormy past. IN are the merchandise of education,and everyworthwhile educational institution must provide and guaid the conditions for breedingthem. To do so, they need the help and vigilance of their alumni. �Ahead:Chanaleengw a new relationship course ofthe relationship between alumni and alma mater?

There was a time when graduation was the end. You got your diploma, along with the right to place certain initials after your name; your hand was clasped for an instant by the president; and the institution's business was done. If you were to keep yourself intellectually awake, the No-Doz would have to be self-administered. If you were to renew your acquaintance with literature or science, the introductions would have to be self-performed. Automotion is still the principal driving force. The years in school and college are designed to provide the push and then the momentum to keep you going with yourmind. "Madam, we guarantee results," wrote a college president to an inquiring mother, "—or we return the boy." After graduation, the guarantee is yours to maintain, alone. Alone, but not quite. It makes little sense, many educators say, for schools and colleges not to do whatever they can to protect their investment in their students— which is considerable, in terms of time, talents, and money—and not to try to make the relationship between alumni and their alma maters a two-way flow. As a consequence of such thinking, and of demands issuing from the former students themselves, alumni meetings of all types—local clubs, campus reunions—are taking on a new character. "There has to be a reason and a purpose for a meeting," notes an alumna. "Groups that meet for purely social reasons don't last long. Just because Mary went to my college doesn't mean I enjoy being with her socially—but I might well enjoy working with her in a serious intellectual project." Male alumni agree; there is a limit to the congeniality that can be maintained solelyby the thin thread ofreminiscences or smalltalk. But there is no limit, among people with whom their �education "stuck," to the revitalizing effects of learning. The chemistry professor who is in town for a chemists' conference and is invited to address the local chapter of thealumni association no longer feels he must talk about nothing more weighty than the beauty of the campus elms; his audience wants him to talk chemistry, and he is delighted to oblige. The engineers who return to school for theirannual homecoming welcome the opportunity to bring themselves up to date on developments in and out of their specialty. Housewives back on the campus for reunions demand—and get—seminars and short-courses. But the wave of interest in enriching the intellectual content of alumni meetings may be only a beginning. With more leisure at their command, alumni will have the time (as they already havethe inclination) to undertake more intensive, regular educational programs. If alumni demand them, new concepts in adult education may emerge. Urban colleges and universities may step up their offerings of programs designed especially for the alumni in their communities—not only their own alumni, but those of distant institutions. Unions and government and industry, already experimenting with graduate-education programs for their leaders, may find ways of giving sabbatical leaves on a widespread basis and they mayprofit, in hard dollars-and-cents terms, from the results of such intellectual re-charging. Colleges and universities, already overburdened with teaching as well as other duties, will need help if such dreams are to come true. But help will be found if the demand is insistent enough. — ► Alumni partnerships with their alma mater, in meeting ever-stiffer educational challenges, will grow even closer than they haw been. Boards of overseers, visiting committees, and other partnerships between alumni and their institutions are proving, at many schools, colleges, and universities, to be channels through which theeducators can keep in touch with the community at large and vice versa. Alumni trustees, elected by their fellow alumni, are found on the governing boards of more and more institutions. Alumni "without portfolio" are seeking ways to join with their alma maters in advancing the cause of education. The representative of a West Coast university has noted the trend: "In selling memberships in our alumni association, we havelearned that, while it's wise to list thebenefits ofmembership, what interests them most is how they can be of service to the university." ► Alumni can have a decisive role in maintaining high standards of education, even as enrollments increase at most schools and colleges. There is a real crisis in American education: thecrisis ofquality. For a variety ofreasons, many institutions find themselves unable to keep theirfaculties staffed with highcaliber men and women. Many lack the equipment needed for study and research. Many, even in this age of high student population, are unable to attract the quality of student they desire. Many have been forced to dissipate their teaching and research energies, in deference to public demand for more and more extracurricular "services." Many, besieged by applicants for admission, have had to yield to pressure and enroll students who are unqualified. Each of these problems has a direct bearing upon the quality of education in America. Each is a problem to which alumni can constructively address themselves, individually and in organized groups. Some can best be handled through community leadership: helping present the institutions' case to the public. Some can be handled by direct participation in such activities as academic talent-scouting, in which many institutions, both public and private, enlist the aid of their alumni in meeting with college-bound high school students in their cities and towns. Some can be handled by making more money available to the institutions —for faculty salaries, for scholarships, for buildings and equipment. Some can be handled through political action. The needs vary widely from institution to institution— and what may help one may actually set back another. Because of this, it is important to maintain a close liaison with the campus when undertaking such work. (Alumni offices everywhere will welcome inquiries.) When the opportunity for aid does come—as it has in the past, and as it inevitably will in the years ahead— alumni response will be the key to America's educational future, and to all that depends upon it. �THE alumni-ship ALUMN US/A The material on this and the preceding 15 was prepared in behalfof more than350 pages schools, colleges, and universities in the United States, Canada, and Mexico by the stafflisted below, who have formededitorial projects for education, inc., through which to perform this function, e.p.e., inc., is a non-profit organization associated with the American Alumni Council. The circulation of this supplement is 2,900,000. DAVID A. BURR The University of Oklahoma was addressing himself to the subject of universities. "They give to the young in their impressionable years the bond of a lofty purpose shared," he said; "of a great corporate life whose links will not be loosed until they die." The links that unite alumni with each other and with their alma mater are difficult to define. But every alumnus and alumna knows they exist, as surely as do the campus's lofty spires and the ageless dedicationofeducated men and women to the process of keeping themselves and their children intellectuallyalive. Once one has caught the spirit of learning, of truth, of probing into the undiscovered and unknown—the spirit of his alma mater—one does not really lose it, for as long as one lives. As life proceeds, the daily mechanics ofliving—of job-holding,offamily-rearing,ofmortgagepaying, of lawn-cutting, of meal-cooking—sometimes are tedious. But for them who haveknown the spirit of intellectualadventureand conquest, there is the bond of the lofty purpose shared, of the great corporate life whose links will not be loosed until they die. This would be the true meaning of alumni-ship, were there such a word. It is the reasoning behind the great service that alumni give to education. It is the reason alma maters can call upon their alumni for responsible support of all kinds, with confidence that the responsibility will be well met. kJohn masefield GEORGE J.

In the long run, alumni of American Universities are responsible YOU for what each institution becomes. They constitute the dominant group of citizens in these Republics of letters. As such they hold theultimate destinies of theuniversities in their hands. The future and welfare of The University of Buffalo, therefore, will be largely determined by what you and thousands of other graduates thinkit should be; in short, by your idea of a university, and by the influence you exert in the support of that idea." Chancellor Samuel P. Capen June 1950 Baccalaureate Address Who are we? We are 25,000 men and women who sometime between 1887 (our oldest living grad) and now, attended the University of Buffalo and (1) Graduated; (2) Accumulated at least twelve semester hours, or (3) Completed five years service as members of the administration or faculty, tally those of us who qualify in one of these categories, and the alumni roll is complete. Where are we? We are everywhere. Some 18,000 of us stayed on the Niagara Frontier, 17,000 didn't make it out of New York State, every state in the Union (all 50) has some 4,000 of us, and 164 of us are divided among 30 foreign countries. Among us are a handful of great men, hundreds ofoutstanding men, thousands of solid citizens, a handful of not so solid citizens, and our occupations are as varied as our names. What are we? We 25,000 are banded together by the Alumni Association of The University of Buffalo. All of us are a part of it and the Association Structure looks like this: EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE (19 members) GENERAL ALUMNI BOARD (58 members) Division Alumni Area Alumni Associations Associations U.B. Council G.A.B. Presidential Appointments Alumni Members Division Alumni Associations refer to thevarious divisions of the University such as Arts and Sciences. Area Associations refer to the various geographic areas where alumni live in sufficient numbers to organize an association in that area. Twenty alumni from the divisions, 20 from the area clubs, 12 from the Council, and 6 appointments make up the governing General Alumni Board which in turn elects the Executive Committee. Everyone of us is an important member of this worldwide Alumni Association and represented by it. The coordination of all parts of the association centers in the Alumni Office. This office is the ear, the voice, and the record center for us ready to serve in whatever way it can. Why are we? At first glance, we're a rather mixed lot (but not mixed up), living everywhere, doing everything with resultant different and often opposite interests. It {continued on page 28) 25 �a Tradition Generation after generation of students follow in their Parents' footsteps by choosing the University as alma mater. KNOWS THE University family has traditionally included alumni, students, faculty, administration, staff and friends. Few, however,realize we have entire families who have chosen the University of Buffalo as their alma mater, each generation following in the footsteps of parents. EVERYONE The reasons children chose this University are varied: Some wish to join the family business or enter the same profession. They attend here because they wish to practice their profession in Western New York, do not wish to leave family and friends, or for financial reasons. Others investigate differentcolleges but decide to come here. Whatever the reason, we are proud of our family relationship. Can yours top these! The Barone Family boasts 17 UB graduates, among them, three are doctors and 12 are pharmacists. They include: George C. Barone, MD'l5; Frank A. Ognibene, MD'l4 (deceased); Marie G. Ognibene, MSS'44; Joseph J. Marotta,PhG'2B; Anthony A.Barone, PhG'26; Charles R. Barone, BS(Phar)'s4; Gloria Knight Laßussa, BS (Bus)'4B; Regis J.

Lano, PhG'24; Angelino Rogers Lano, PhG'24; Louis D. Copley, PhG'37; Joseph D. Rogers, PhG'3l (deceased); Phyllis Malissa Rogers, PhG'32. In the education field, we have graduated one of the most distinguished families in the country—the Farbers. Eugene M., MD'43 is chairman of the Department of Dermatology, Stanford University Medical School; Seymour M., BS'3l, is professor of medicine and assistant dean, the University ofCalifornia Medical School; Sidney, BS'23, is professor of pathology, the Harvard University Medical School; Marvin, SS ex '20 is chairman of our philosophy department. His son, Lawrence A., MD '56, presently is doing post-graduate work at the University of Minnesota in neurology and physiology. Two brothers and a sister also attended the University; Jason E., MD'33, Darwin, BA'46 andBrenn J. Morgan, BA'3l. 26 Among outstanding lawyers in Western New York are the Harris family: Samuel J., LLB'O7, LLM'OB, was justice of the supreme court, professor of the Law of crimes and criminal procedure at the Law School, and very active in alumni affairs; David F., LLB'22; Samuel A. Goldberg, LLB'43; Chester A. Pearlman, LLB'27. Other graduates include: Benjamin J., DDS'I4; Milton H. Goldberg, MD'l2; Sigmund Goldberg, MD'B4 (deceased); Jeannette Jacobson Pearlman, BA'23, MA'29; Rachael A. Zacks Gage, MSS'4B, and Arline Jacobson Hiken, BA'32. Another Buffalo law firm was started and has been carried on by a family of alumni—the Lanes. They include: John F., LLB'I6 (deceased); Mary A., LLB'2O; JohnP., LLB'S3; Robert J., BS(Bus)'ss, LLB'SB. Robert's wife, Lori Sullivan also attended the University. The medical school can also boast alumni families, the largest among them being the Oberkircher's. Oscar J., MD'l5, who was professor of Urology at the Medical School, has three sons, Paul E., MD'59; David J., BA'56, MD'59 and Oscar R. a sophomore in Medical School. And, the dental school has the Pantera family—eleven dentists in all including: Matthew J. Sr., DDS'22; Matthew J.

Seemingly, it has no relation to the article which follows. For the writer, however, its central theme—the love of truth and the lavishing of "life's best oil" in search of knowledge— serves as the loom across which to weave the fabric of this story. Originally the search for truth and the quest ofknowledge was a relatively simple process—one solitary individual, perhaps, of an inquiring mind, exploring whatever source was at hand and stumbling upon an eternal truth. Even the communication of truth, when it was still by means of the spoken word, was a small group process— the philosopher to his little band offollowers, the master to his handful of disciples, thewise scholar to a few fresh young lives who came to sit at his feet to learn. As time went on theprocessbecame more complex. The written word about known and accepted truths evolved into the books and documents and manuscripts of the great libraries of the world. "The log hut, with only a simple bench, Mark Hopkins on one end and I on the other .. ." evolved into the great classrooms and vast school buildings of today. The simple flask of Louis Pasteur evolved into the intricate apparatus and equipment of today's fabulous scientific laboratories. Thus, at various points along the way, there evolved the need for numerous other participants in this process of learning—the diener, the librarian, the provost, the bursar, the registrar, the chancellor, the trustee. These others,—the administration, we call them—are thehandmaidens, so to speak, of the great educational enterprise. They do the necessary housekeeping, they manage the affairs outside the classroom, they keep the books and the records, they provide the necessary physical materials, they collect and disburse the funds, they exercise the judgment and discretion in matters involving the whole 28 institution —they perform all the ancillary services to leave the scholar and the student free to get on with the essential business of teaching and learning. Their role is not so legendary as that of the scholar. But, if they perceive their positions rightly, they must be as much concerned with the search for truth and knowledge as the scholar. Many of them are, and with intense devotion and loyalty, dedicate their lives to the institutions they serve. In a very true sense, they "lavish life's best oil" to insure that the lamps of learning are kept burning, across the world. So, out of man's search for truth and knowledge, has been forged a great chain of institutions of higher learning which girdles the earth and extends far back into the shadows of antiquity. One link in that long chain is the University of Buffalo. Its history, which goes back over one hundred years, is an oft told story. For the first seventy years of its existence it was a university in name only, a collection ofprofessional schools with little unifying influence. Its life as a real university began with the establishment of the College of Arts and Sciences in 1913. In that year, to comply with requirements of the New York State Department of Education, the Medical School authorized instruction in science and modern languages. In keeping with the tradition of the founders of the Medical School a small group of men, mostly volunteers, assumed the responsibility for the teaching of these courses, some devoting all their time to the work, others giving part time services. In spite of lack of endowment funds or of fixed salaries these volunteers met with success beyond their hopes. In the fall of 1915 the State Department of Education approved the courses of study. Then came the gift of Townsend Hall. The Women's Educational and Industrial Union, which for thirty years had maintained headquarters at Delaware Avenue and Niagara Square, voted to disband and to devote its building to the University for the housing of the new department of Arts and Sciences, on condition that within a year the University should raise $100,000 toward the endowment of a future college. In 1916 came the University's first endowment of $250,000 and, with that gift, the possession of Townsend Hall became secure. �by Emily H. Webster, BA'23 assistant vice-chancellor for business affairs IT WAS INTO that situation inJ9l6 that there came an earnest young woman, Emma Elizabeth Deters, to be first registrar of the College of Arts and Sciences and, later, first University registrar, from which position she retires at June 30th of this-year. Now, a registrar, according to the dictionary, is one who registers, an official recorder, a keeper of the records —one of those ancillary personnel who prepare and smooth the way for the essential business of an institution of higher learning. But Emma Deters has never been a handmaiden, merely, in any sense of the word. The essential function of her office, the keeping of the records, she has performed meticulously and well. But her accomplishments over a period of forty years have gone far beyond the bounds of her position at the University of Buffalo, indeed, have brought her to positions of high trust and responsibility on a state and national level. The record of her professional connections speaks for itself. In 1929-30 she was second vice president of the American Association of Collegiate Registrars and Admissions Officers. From 1934-37 she was Treasurer of that Association; in 1951-52 she was first Vice-President and in 1952-53 she was President of the American Association of Collegiate Registrars, one ofthe only three women who have ever held that high post. From 1934-37 she was associate editor and from 1942-43 she was book review editor of "College and University" as well as a member and chairman of many association committees. In April of this year the Association will pay her special honor for her outstanding work in her profession. She has been Secretary, Vice President and President, respectively, of the Middle States Association of Collegiate Registrars and Officers of Admissions. She has served, as well, on numerous educational commissions in New York State. On the 25th anniversary of her connection with the University of Buffalo, the Buffalo Junior Chamber of Commerce named her "Niagara Frontiersman for the extraordinary interest in students and the capacity shown over a period of twenty-five years in various positions in the University of Buffalo." She is a member of Pi Lambda Theta, (National Honorary Education Fraternity); Alpha Lambda Delta (Na{continued on page 28) Phot—UB Audio-Vsal IT* T7* 1~"\ Emma L. Deters a retires after 44 years of service to the University as registrar. After June 30th she will continue her work with all of us as special advisor in the GraduateSchoolof Arts and Sciences. 29 �A. Bertram Lemon Emma E. Deters ( continuedfrom page 1) {continuedfrompage27) And he has kept his word. Since his retirement he has returned each day, hung up his hat in 213 Foster, and devoted his efforts to handling alumni affairs in the Pharmacy School. When I walked into his office theother day, he was busy reminiscing with one ofhis classmates who had come back to "talk to Doc Lemon." The gentleman left; and "Doc" began to tell me of the wonderful new building that was going to be dedicatedin the future. We talked far into the afternoon, and as I left I glanced at the clock, andread: "Buffalo Pharmacy College, Class of 13". You could hear the tick-tocking, steady, untiring and dedicated to a purpose. The class of 13 gave more than they realized to this alma mater—they produced Doc Lemon, our greatest asset. —J. M. tional Honorary Freshman Women's Society); and an honorary member of Sigma Kappa, a national social sorority. To her position at the University of Buffalo she has brought a tireless industry, an unfailing readiness to undertake any new task that might advance the welfare of the University, and a helpfulness and generosity to any one who might need assistance. The fact that her work was performed quietly and without any efforton her part to secure personal recognition makes it all the more impressive. Her instinctive love of truth and her innate integrity have guided all her decisions, in and out ofoffice. She is gifted with a real sense of the appropriate and seems never to lapse from this graceful quality. Her imagination and creativity extend beyond her job into her private life,—into theskill ofcooking, the science of gardening and the art of flower arranging, which are her dearestavocations. And, in the gentle sport offishing, she yields to no one when it comes to snaring the prize small mouth black bass, year after year, at her summer retreat on Unity Pond, Maine. By the rarest of combinations, she has two other qualities which seem to transcend all these others—a sensitive nature, quick in its insight into the feelings ofothers, and an understanding heart, ready to reach out and dealwith the problems of others as though they were her own. Such a person, in thekey position ofregistrar in a large university, cannot but leave her mark on the institution, as well as on the lives of all those who have been so fortunate as to have lived in her time and come within the sphere of her guidance and friendship. The influence of her years as registrar is hard to measure. Hundreds of young men and women, who have sought her advice and guidance, have had their lives quickened by the gentle encounter with her fine, clear mind, encouraged by the warm, human qualities of the woman who was never too occupied to listen to their problems, and endlessly enriched by the experiences of her friendship. It is no exaggeration to say that this influence extends beyond the bounds of the University, even of the city, well into the reaches of the educational and professional life of the Alumni—that's us (continuedfrom page23) must be the likes of us that best exemplifies the word "Heterogeneous." To all of us, however, there is one strong, common denominator—Our University. The denominator is strong as a whole; it is up to us as individuals to make it strong unto ourselves. Why should we be alumni in more than name only? Why doalumni spend thousands of hours donated to the service of their University? Chancellor Capen struck at the core of the "why" in his 1950 Baccalaureate Address. Certainly the charge is powerful when he tells us that alumni of American Universities are responsible for what each institution becomes. Powerful it is, and it makes sense. It makes sense that we actively put our force behind the growing impetus of education with its increasing affect on world affairs, and the destinies ofour children and grandchildren. Everyday we strive for the betterment of all mankind through our own environmental sphere by our participation in church work, service clubs, charities, and so forth. In education we have our sphere—the University of Buffalo. This is our common denominator, and we can only strengthen it by our individual, thus cumulative, participation. Add our supporting effort to the force of the Alumni of all Universities, and our country will be better equipped to face the rising problems of the coming decades. Less profound, but something we wouldn't trade is the fun of being a part of the perennial sophomore. It's still there and waiting for us—the kicks of a football game; the nostalgia of a class reunion; the remeeting of old friends, old professors, and old ivy towers. Climb aboard. The route is rewarding and the destination is worthy. 30 state and nation. As Emma Deters leaves the Registrar's Office,—there, for forty years, having "lavished life's best oil,"—she must be filled with the sense of having had a good and purposeful career, not without its tribulations, but rich and rewarding, nevertheless. Another quotation, this one from Pilgrim's Progress, now suggests itself as an appropriate epilogue for her retirement: "My sword I give to him thatshall succeed me in my pilgrimage, and my courage and skill to him that can get it. My marks and my scars I carry with me, to be a witness for me ." . �Last Milestones ALUMNI Florida Florida alumni gave a gala welcome to Chancellor and Mrs. Furnas March 21st, at The Reel in Fort Lauderdale.

Head Coach Dick Offenhamer, his staff andBulls, will match stratagems with the Cadets of Coach Dale Hall. Announcement of the toughest schedule ever played by UB gridders caused a demand for season tickets which broke all previous sales records as early as April Ist. Alumni, students and friends have besieged the Athletic and Alumni Offices with requests for information regarding tickets, reservations, and travel arrangements. It is presently estimated that no less than 4,000 fans will follow the team from Western New York via car, train, plane and bus. Tickets for the Army game will arrive in Buffalo during July or August and will be distributed with preference given to holders of season tickets. A second list is being kept in the ticket office, naming those who desire tickets as they become available. Season tickets for 5 home contests are available at $16.50or $11.50. Whether you reside in the Buffalo area or are an alumnus away from home, it would be wise to write NOW for reservations in theHudson Valley hotels or motels.

IS THE FIRST time we have ever been called upon to witness the interesting ceremony conferring the time-honored degrees of a collegiate course. Here for the first time we see assembled the officers andprofessors ofa literary institution, located in our midst, and destined we trust to shed its literary and scientific blessings, not only upon the youth of our own prosperous city, but upon those of the surrounding country and adjacent States. The patriot and scholar rejoice at the brilliantprospect that opens before us. Having no buildings, one was leased for three years, at the corner of Washington and Seneca streets, andfitted up at considerable expense for the purpose, and the first annual course of lectures commenced by this distinguished body of professors on the first Wednesday of February last, which term is now about to close. The whole number of students attending has been seventytwo some eighteen of whom will receive their diplomas of Doctors of Medicine today. These are the firstfruits of this literary and scientific vineyard, and I trust they are only samples of a more abundant harvest that is to be annually gathered hereafter. If at the commencement any doubtedthe success of this enterprise, or thought the attempt premature, we trust that enough has now been done to dispel every doubt, and allay everyappre- THIS of /tension. For never within our knowledge has any medical college opened with so large a class of students and closed its first year under such flattering auspices. Be assured, that you have established an institution eminently useful to yourselves, which will become the pride and ornament ofour city, andfor whichyou will receive thegrateful thanks andfervent blessings of unborn millions. — The First University Building �. ABOUT THE COVER THE UNIVERSITY OF BUFFALO Graduation is over . the throngs of parents and friends have given their send-off to some 850 graduates, and all that is left of the commencement ceremony are empty chairs and used programs. We congratulate the Class of 1960and welcome them into the alumni fold. Our cover and new logotype was designed by Don Holenbrook who is a member of the graduating class from the Art School.

Member of the American Alumni Council Please Notify Us of Change of Address Janice N. Mogavero, BA'5B Editor �AFRICAN INTERLUDE by Frank L Tabr h Dr. by Phot s �Tabrah, M.D., '43 IN NIGERIA, deep in the jungles of the West African Slave Coast, is a complex of seventeen villages, called collectively, Awo Omamma. Inhabiting these settlements, and scattered through forty square miles of dense jungle, are eighteen thousand people, a part of the five million Ibo tribe of Eastern Nigeria. During 1959, while on three-month vacation from medical work in Hawaii, I was given the opportunity through the Unitarian Service Committee, of enjoying the hospitality of these Ibo people in Awo Omamma, while studying their ethnology and medical problems. The Unitarian Service Committee is a non-sectarian and non-profit organization offering technical aid to undeveloped areas. Through its village improvement and leadership training program, primitive Awo Omamma is destined to become a modern community with adequate schools, improved health, modern sanitation and civic pride. Nigeria, like all of Africa today, is a land of surprises and contrasts —on one hand is "bush" or jungle living, with stoneage simplicity; on the other is the concrete and steel boom of modern construction, the buildings exact copies of South American architecture, forming teeming cities as yet without much beauty or plan. In the rainy season in Awo Omamma, families huddle in their mud and thatch huts dying with malaria, starving on diets practically devoid of proteins, vitamins, and minerals. Worm infestation, inanition and malaria kill one third of the children under 15 years of age—yet the population in Awo remains about 500 people to the square mile. So dense, in fact, is the rural population of Awo Omamma, that hardly a bird or animal remains in the jungle. All have been trapped, shot, or snared, and eaten. Primitive agricultural methods—back breaking toil with a short handled hoe, the need each day to headcarry all household water for 3 or 4 miles from parasite ridden streams and ponds (this is a woman's work), the utter lack of latrines of any sort, all this is the rural Africa millionsknow, and Africa devoid of communications, roadways, education, medicalfacilities and, above all, although it may seem a small thing, adequate lighting. It has been said of Africa "where the electric light goes, the spirits will vanish"—a fact without question, for in the darkness of rural Africa, witchcraft still abounds, guiding most activities of birth and death and all that lies between. Near the end of my stay, I had the pleasure of becoming quite friendly with an Ibo witch doctor. In exchanging courtesies, his visit was somewhat more auspicious than mine, as he brought as gifts several pineapples, a full bunch of bananas, several live chickens, and about two dozen eggs, all very scarce and valuable in Awo. In return, I promised him photographs, and with hisfriends and mine, spent an hour or so introducing him to thewonders of a microscope. Although thewitch doctor offers a little in the way of psychotherapy, his medical ability, in a modern sense, is nil.Thousands of such practitioners abound both in and out of cities, but almost all are completely illiterate, and have little even native training in medical arts, unlike the Polynesian kahuna who here in Hawaii was, and still is, a valuable therapist, to be respected and admired. (continued on nextfour pages) 5 �AS THE DARKNESS of illiteracy and superstition is as have already reached some areas, will become available in Awo Omamma; this hope has already started the village leaders on a hospital building program, daring in its scope, but already underway, for the new African will no longer wait for progress, suffering in patience—his day has come. Spearheading this drive toward modern living in Awo Omamma, is a brilliant man of 32 years, Dr. Ben Nzeribe, a PhD. in Economics from Cornell University. Dr. Nzeribe was reared in Awo Omamma, in utter poverty, but against unbelievable odds, struggled through the educational barriers of Nigeria and the outside world finally to return to live with his villagers, in the hope of improving their lot. Keyed to the village improvement program of the Unitarian Service Committee, for whom he is the African representative, Dr. Nzeribe can accomplish much; based on his record of achievement since overcome in Africa, modern medical facilities, 6 returning to Awo two years ago, anything seems possible. Ben, his wife Samiri, and three children live in a mixture of Ibo and American style, acting as advisors for every conceivable phase of the lives and activities of their people, offering their help at any hour of the day or night. Long lines of people stand in the courtyard, often arriving in the night to be on hand at sunrise, if their problem can indeed await the dawn. Although most Ibo men have at least three or four wives, each living in a separate hut or part of the main house, together with respective children, Ben, a member of a Christian church, prefers having one wife and family, American style. Although polygamy is the rule in much of Africa, some popular women's movements are against it, and with 45% of the people of Eastern Nigeria becoming Christians, polygamy may slowly wane, although in Northern Nigeria, a Moslem stronghold, this is quite unlikely, as a solvent Moslem may have four wives. With Ben Nzeribe in Awo Omamma it was of course �Dr. Ben Nzeribe, a native of Awo Omamma, with a PhD. from CornellUniversity, participates in the annual Owu Ceremony by dancing. easy to accomplish the purposes for which I was asked to go there—needless to say, without his organizational work, no approach whatever could make a physician useful to his people. On my arrival in Awo Omamma a huge gathering of women (the Awo Omamma Women's Association) held a welcome ceremony at which the following address was read over sumptuous gifts of palm wine, tropical fruits, chicken, eggs, beer, and Kola nuts (at a similar men's welcome ceremony I was given a live ram): "Dear Dr. Tabrah, The above named union representing the 25 affiliated kindred meetings of Awo~Omamma women gather here today to welcome you to Omamma land. Welcome a thousandfold. The deep feeling of joy and pride within us today is a very hard taskfor human recognition and imagination. It is really a pleasure to see you in our midst. On behalf of Awo-Omammawomen both home and abroad we give our hearty thanks to the agency that sent you and Dr. Nzeribe to us. As you may have seen, very great changes have taken place in AwoOmamma over the past year or less. But apart from these improvements in number of schools, roads, water project and so on there are other changes which the visitor cannot easily see. These are changes in heart and mindandfeeling. Now we love one another more than ever; litigations are becoming a thing of the past; order and peace reign without asingle police in a village of over 18,000 people; we are working for progress and planning ways and means to make life betterfor our children. All these and more we owe to the great noble work started by our son, Dr. Nzeribe. Again we thank your agencyfor making him available to us. We all are solidly behind Dr. Nzeribe and will cooperate with him in all the plans he has for the improvement of this village. We trust his leadership. We pray that your agency will continue to be behind us in our endeavours to improve ourselves. You are no doubt aware ofour efforts to start a hospital ofour own. It is a big task but no longer a dream. The site is now selected and cleared and work starts in earnest this season. We are straining ourselves to do it because in the past our losses in lives ofchildren, friends andrelatives had been great indeed. We ask you and your agency to do all you can to help us. Let the wor(dknow we are struggling to do this andlet those who are able and willing help us. We know American women will like to be our friends. Tell them of these efforts and sacrifices we are making to make our own lives better. We again thank you immensely and present you according to our custom with thefollowing tropical products. We pray that God willenable you to carry out your duties here and lead you safely back home. We are your friends." BESIDE ASSISTING Awo people in making their rather ambitious plans for a hospital, my work was primarily a matter of survey, to see what problems underlie the serious health situation there. Examination of hundreds of people from infancy to old age provided an interesting baseline of information about diseasesin AwoOmamma. These findings, together with an ethnological study of the area, give a clear idea of what is needed to prevent killing sieges of malaria, worm-loaded children, too weak to crawl, and starvation. A daily "sick call",held often in a thatch roofed workshop, with a carpenter acting as interpreter, provided a valuable picture of Awo's daily illnesses. Following is a list of the probable difficulties of twenty four patients seen in one morning: asthma, acute, man 40; arthritis, woman 35; epidemic Pleurodynia, woman 30; malnutrition and "worms", boy lVi; corneal ulcer, woman 30; pneumonia, man 30; malaria, febrile, woman 30; impetigo, child 1 yr.; anemia, severe, man 50; hookworm infestation, severe, child 3!/i yr.; malaria, acute, man 30; diarrhea, and dehydration, woman 30; malaria, acute, boy lVi; dogbite, infected 3 mos. boy 7; sty, woman 20; cancer of stomach, man 65; probable TB spine, boy 18; testicular tumor, man 50; pneumonitis, woman 45; malnutrition, severe, child 3; upper respiratory infection, man 33; perforated ear drum, man 22. It is singularly depressing to have little to offer these patients. With the present lack of sanitation, insect control, and dietary knowledge characteristic of the area, even adequate medical facilities would be of little use. Medical care is available in far away Mission or Government hospitals, but few make the trip—many AwoOmamma people have never been outside the village, so difficult is transportation. Plans are now in effect for helping Awo Omamma to bring modern technology to bear on its medical and sanitary problems. Deep wells are being dug, a hospital has been started by the donation and clearing of land, and most important, schooling of triballeaders in matters of hygiene, insect control, sanitation, and nutrition has begun. Although it may take years for these advances to operate to the benefit of all of Awo's undeveloped people, a spirited and determined start has been made. 7 �AFRICAN DEVELOPMENT in and through such projects as the Awo-Omamma village improvement program, is of great importance to the United States and the West. Nigeria, as many new nations do, looks to the United States as its guide to national success, and despite well publicized comparisons between ourselves and the Russians, I saw in Nigeria no evidence of attraction—no political or technical connections seem to exist. However, the Moslem people of Northern Nigeria have an understandable and ethnic tie with Egypt and the United Arab Republic, which of course is not unfriendly to Russian interests. (Parenthetically, during a short trip into Egypt, I was accorded the utmost courtesy as an American traveler, and nowhere have I found it easier or more pleasant to visit and photograph a country and its people.) Before World War II it was customary for the African seeking University education to attend Continental and British schools—they were thought to be superior to those of the United States, both academically and socially. However, a change of heart in Nigeria, probably as a part of the Nationality movement bringing Independence from Britain in October 1960, has created stronger bonds with American Universities which now attract many African students, despite the racial difficulties the African student finds in America. As the only Caucasion among thousands of Africans, I was at times questioned closely by teachers, students, and community leaders about the true picture of what an African faces in the United States, as a student. Based on what is publicized of our racial problems (with even friendly Nigerian press coverage) the African cannot help but wonder how he may fare in this country, when here for education, as a delegate, or perhaps as a distinguished visitor. On several occasions I heard the touching view voiced that as guests in our great land, it was not possible that any unpleasant incidentcould occur. It is an interesting and curious paradox and a tribute to the British that after decades of colonial British rule, Nigeria is today practically devoid ofracial tension. Although questions of the American Negro's place in our society were often raised by educated Nigerians, it was of some interest to me to find that the well-known interracial cooperation and amity of Hawaii was known to at least one far away African who sagely observed that in that respect, Hawaii must really not be a part of the United States. AS THE NEW NATIONS of the African continent and theworld emerge, their fusion into larger federations will carry tremendous power. It isvital that as Americans we set an example of living as the cosmopolitan citizens of the world we like to think ourselves. 8 By our example, African and otherworld leaders may seek to mold their governments by bids for processes of freedom instead of plans for collective oppression—that is ifthey are not treated to the spectacle of our democratic culture failing in its basic premise of upholding the significance of the individual of any race. In the social development of the World community to which we must look for actual survival, older cultures and experienced governments have, whether they want them or not, crucial responsibilities in the development of new societies. Field operations such as technical aid, financial pump-priming, and political machinations are among the more effective and prompt tools for breathing life into new governments and economies, but underlying all these is the basic need for education. Nothing can be done without know-how, from the bottom up—elementary schooling of rural people in undeveloped countries is important—the secondary schooling of some of them is too—but most significant is the proper training and exposure of leaders of the future to the best traditions and competent learning of our best thinkers. This, of course suggests a university relationship—and is the hope of hundreds of students from all the countries of the world who come to our shores. Do we make easily available to them the best we have to offer, under conditions of living and security that can best exemplify our concern for the successful emergence of the underprivileged? Unfortunately not. Financial matters, housing problems, language difficulties, and lack of understanding of the exotic student's role in his own society often contribute to making his stay of less value to his development than he or we should wish it. Efforts to solve some of these difficulties have been made by development of American university facilities abroad, such as the American University at Bierut, and the recently proposed creation of a center at the University of Hawaii for students of the Pacific and the Orient. The effectiveness of an American, continental University, or two or three, perhaps, with similaraims, directing facilities toward the more effective housing, schooling, and conditioning of foreign students, with consideration of their special problems, would be a valuable step in enhancing our effectiveness in education of the future leaders of new societies. Too often, African and Asian students leave our shores wondering just what democracy means—and whether it really offers freedom to every citizen. Universities should be in a position to demonstrate this basic hope of our society, and particularly those whose students includeforeign aspirants to learning. (continued on page 17) �Feedback from Psychology Alumni by W. L. Barnette, Jr., Ph.D. Professor of Psychology Director, Vocational Counseling Center THE UNIVERSITY'S Department of Psychology recently became interested in the whereabouts of its majors, knowing full well that the majority do not go on for graduate training in psychology. We also wanted to know how these ex-students viewed their under- graduate program of studies, what changes they would now recommend, how they now valued the more theoretical courses they were required to take. In brief, we wanted to know where they now are, what they thought of us and would they do it again. Many of you Bulletin readers helped us in this study; also a good many specifically requested that they be sent a copy of the completed study. For this reason we are taking this opportunity, through the pages of the Alumni Bulletin, to inform you of the results. We chose a ten-year period, 1948-1958, in order not to deal with mostly "new" people. For this period we found a total of 563 psychology majors to which a questionnaire, together with a covering letter from Dr. Lester, Chairman of the Department, was mailed. We kept plugging with postcard reminders and second mailings of questionnaires (some of you may have felt rather put upon), even telephone calls, in order to maximize the *Former Professor Edward S. Jones helpfully collaborated on the questionnaire employed here. Thanks are also given to Mr. Charles Grantfor his careful work in coding of all replies and to Mr.Kenneth Robinson of the UB Data Processing Centerfor cooperation in punching the IBM data cards and running off the specified data breakdowns. returns. In the end, after eliminating duds returned by the postoffice and hard-core non-respondents, we received 375 questionnaires (or 73% of the sample). We also asked respondents to be frank; we invited unsolicited comments and here we got reams of material. It was nothing for busy MDs (and the like) to write us threepage, tightlypacked lettersfull of reminiscences and comments. We were frankly pleased and we made a content analysis of these comments. We were also pleased that we received some negative evaluations which meant, if nothing else, that our returns were not just a "whitewash." This is a surprisingly heterogeneous group. The 375 respondents contain 87 females and 288 maleswhose age at receipt of the BA degree runs all the way from 19 to 46 (remember the veteran bulge). Modal age at receipt of the BA is 25% years. These ex-students are to be found, occupationally, all the way from high status academic and industrial positions down to clerical jobs. By no means have all of them continued with advanced academic degrees but there is still to be seen a good deal of "upward striving" as indicated by the rather large numbers of people who state they are continuing with some advanced degree program. Not only are there PhD psychologists, but also chiropodists, pharmacists, assistant deans of education, engineers, nurses, paymasters, foremen, TV script editors, salesmen—just about the gamut of the occupational hierarchy if we limit ourselves to the upper half. 9 �TABLE Occupational Distribution of P Early (BA 1948-52) Grad Student now Housewife/mother In military Professional: Where Are They Now? Table I presents the occupational breakdown indicating career status as of early 1959. The data are divided into an early (BA degrees between 1948 and 1952) and late (1953-58) period, the former representing the more stable group occupationally. This early group contains few graduate students or military trainees. It is presumed that most of these people are in the occupational niche where they will likely remain. Here we see that 13% of these are psychologists and thatanother 9% have gone into education, mostly as elementary or secondary school teachers (but about onethirdof this groupare found in colleges, asfaculty in schools of education). Another 9% have entered socialwork; 8% have obtained their MD or DDS degrees and are currently practising as such. Here doctors far outweigh dentists and it is clearly apparent that medical school, as against dental school, is the preferred route for this group of graduates. Less than 1 % have gone into specialties as osteopathy or chiropody. Looking at the entire early group, close to 50% are clearly in the professional strata and most of these are in "service" areas, scientific or otherwise, involving fairly close interpersonal relations— areas where it is traditionally thought psychological training clearly contributes. Another large segment of this early group (about 30%) is found in business and industry. Concerning industrial slots, a wide variety of job titles is found here. As one would expect, psychology graduates turn up in personnel, industrial relations and various supervisory roles where psychological training would be expected to make a contribution. More surprisingly, however, are the graduates now found as credit manager, wholesaler, paymaster, traffic coordinator, claim adjuster. It is also this industrial group (as against sales-advertising) who infrequently say they would do it again (i.e., be a psychology major)— a mere 38%. Turning attention to the lates in Table I, many of these people are too recently "out" to form a definitive picture: 22% are now in some graduate program and another 9% are in the military. Psychology, education, social work, medicine account for the largest professional categories here; the percentage in "paramedical" slots here jumps to three; sales-advertising continues to be a large group. Dental, legal, theological schools continue to attract very few graduates. 10 Psychology Education: College level Elem or sec schl Social Work MD Dentist Other medical* Law Ministry Miscellaneous** Total Professional Sales-advertising Managerial-industrial Clerical Art-literary Totals Late (1953-58) 3 39 1 ( 1%) ( 16%) ( 1%) 30 14 12 30 ( 13%) 1 ( 9%) ,5} 9\ 13/ 21 17 2 1 5 2 8 108 29 45 13 3 241 ( 9%) ( 7%) ( 1%) ( ( 22%) ( 10%) ( 9%) ( H%) 8 1 1 4 ( 6%) 2 2 34 18 16 9 1 134 ( 1%) ( 1%) ( 25%) ( 13%) ( H%) ( 3%) 2%) ( ( 1%) 3%) ( 46%) ( 12%) ( 19%) ( 5%) ( 1%) (100%) ( 7%) (100%) *Other medical ("paramedical group") includes optometry, chiropod '♦Miscellaneous includes "research worker", chemist, engineer. ***Total in Advice column does not equal 375 since some respondents Would They Do It Again? One item on our questionnaire tried to get at an oblique measure of satisfaction by asking respondents the hypothetical question if they were now advising a young person, or had it to do over again themselves, would they recommend psychology as an undergraduate major. Here they were given three alternatives to check: Yes, as a major; No, only as a minor; No, only a couple of courses. Table I presents these data broken down into a Yes-No dichotomy. The overall endorsement for Yes (as a major) is 62%. If one looks only at respondents clearly in professional categories, there is a 65% endorsement. Housewives and mothers are slightly more enthusiastic; MDs are generally approving and would "do it again" but our small group of dentists and "paramedicals" are anything but laudatory. The business folk, especially those in industrial slots, are very lukewarm (only 38% Yes) whereas the sales-advertising cluster gives a more approving endorsement (57%). Looking at these data from the early-late categories, our older and more settled respondents are not so sure. �f Psychology Graduates Advice: Yes Total Do It Again No ( 9%) ( 14%) ( 3%) 25 35 9 ( 76%) ( 70%) ( 69%) 8 15 4 (24%) (30%) (31%) 31 ( 9%) 24 ( 77%) 7 (23%) a ( 10%) 22 ( 66%) 11 (34%) ■ ( 8%) ( 5%) ( 1%) ( 65%) ( 70%) ( 33%) 5 5 4 (1.5%) (1.5%) ( 1%) 17 12 1 2 3 3 4 88 27 23 13 4 224 9 5 2 3 2 1 6 46 20 36 8 (35%) (30%) (67%) (60%) (40%) (25%) 137 (38%***) ( ( ( ( 2%) 38%) 12%) 16%) ( 6%) ( 1%) (100%) ( 40%) ( 60%) ( 75%) ( 40%) ( 65%) ( 57%) ( 38%) ( 65%) (100%) ( 62%) (60%) (35%) (43%) (62%) (35%) >pody, osteopathy, nurse. :nts failed to check this item. Slightly more than half of the early group would do a repeat. In brief, there is some real disenchantment with the early BA degree people. This early group feels that more emphasis should have been given to both the applied and social psychology areas in their undergraduate training. It is as ifthese people, being longer out in the community, now see problems concerned with group dynamics, mass media of communication, conformity as the relevant issues and they feel their undergraduate training couldhave been better on this score. Social psychology is now an integral feature of the undergraduate sequence; it looks as if we ought to give more attention to the applied area, however. Setting aside this early-late distinction, it should be remarked that there are some rather "rare birds": architect, pharmacist, data processing man, chemist, engineer, clerk, play reader for a theatrical agency, a housewife who describes herself as a "frustrated psychologist" and a supervisor of raw materials for a steel plant (who started out as a crane operator). Whether we like it or not, undergraduate psychology training at UB is servicing a wide occupational range. Important Aspects of the Curriculum The basic fundamentals of the curriculum were thoroughly endorsed. The ones we inquired about, specifically, were: tutorial work (independent study), final comprehensive exams, required statistics, required experimental psychology, required Senior Seminar. We asked respondents both to check which of these features they now regarded as important and also to comment more fully. There is overwhelming endorsement for the tutorial plan, 72% of all respondents indicating this. No other entry on our check list received such approbation. Quotations from spontaneous comments will give the flavor: (froma housewife) This is apart ofthe UBprogram I hope will always be continued. The opportunity to read more extensively in areas of special interest and the close association of professor andstudent give depth and, often, the first real impetus to a scholarly approach. (Crad student, psychology PhD candidate) The tutorial system is a feather in the department's cap and should definitelybe continued. Statistics: Few respondents felt negatively about this requirement and most did not specifically comment. Forty percent, however, came out strongly for its reten- tion. What is surprising here is that this Yes vote did not come solely from the graduate degree people; it was, rather, the people in sales and advertising, and also the mothers, who reported their present appreciation, if belated, of this departmentalrequirement. We do, however, have some malcontents. (Truck salesman, formerly a District Manager) Cannot emphasize too highly the value of statistics. Gives anyone the ability to interpret data, judge value of "surveys", etc. All reading material reporting statistical data is useless unless a basic understanding of statistical terms and language is present. Excellent background in anyfield. (Sales Manager) If thought is being given to elimination of Statistics as arequired subject, this would be a shame! Granted, it is a dry and sometimes unpleasant course but it is the basis for so much—i.e., testing, numerical distributions, etc. which is contained in textbooks of all psych courses that it is manditory (sic). (State Parole Officer) The only thing I remember about statistics is that Harry Truman's election in 1948 was a surprise to no one except Dr. Gallup and (name of instructor) and they both had a rough time explaining that! It was all very wonderful and thanks for the opportunity of saying so. .. Experimental psychology: Seventy respondents specifically referred to this course: 63 positive and 7 negative. Of thewide variety of courses to which students had been exposed, this particular course provoked the most outspoken praise and, in some cases, blame. 11 �(from a civil engineer) Experimental psych gave me my first and best taste ofreal scientific method. 1 think this course should be required for all students who intend make a career in science. (social worker) Altho I could only glean two Cs, this was a course that had agreat deal of meaning to me. (from a high school teacher) No, I hate rats! to Miscellaneous Comments It is impossible in a short article of this type to give the flavor, letalone the intensity, of all of the comments and attitudes fed back to us. One or two additional items stand out from this large collection. One of these is the stated disenchantment with the BA degree in psychology, by which is meant that such a person cannot work professionally in the area and that majoring students require (and would be most grateful) for better advice in this regard. A total of 45 respondents (one of our largest groups) specifically made this point. One comment: faculty personalities by name, frequently in connection with a specific course, and with evident pleasure. Many of these graduates had been out as long as ten years but this did not dim some of these vivid recollections. (We also received some frankly negative comments about personalities but these are clearly in the minority.) Practically every staff member that has ever been associated with the department received a mention. When the tabulations were made, 35 different staff people were singled out (at least once) for personal mention and some of these names go back many years (examples: Dr. Thomas Kennelly, Dr. Mazie Wagner, Dr. Earl McGrath). (housewife who describes herselfas "afrustrated psychologist") I wish tho that I'd had closer guidance to have kept me on the right track Psych as a major with no intention to accomplish graduate work has left me unfitfor any good job too much the intellectual snob for "just a job" and untrained elsewhere .. (But) my 4 years in the department were wonderful they stand out clearly and dearly in my memories. Ifeel wonderful pride in the University's growth altho wonder how the old prof-student rapport can possibly be maintained. Of the present staff it is, naturally, the more senior members of the department that are singled out most frequently. Dr. Bugelski heads the list with 112 specific and laudatory mentions and with four negative votes. Dr. Lester is second with 66 congratulatory comments and one negative. Most alumni who had any contact with psychology will clearly recall both of these individuals and can now "test" their own reactions against our returns. There were other individuals, now no longer members of the department, who were also very stimulating people: Dr. Donald Bullock (31 positive mentions) and Dr. Carleton Scofield (14 positives). Here, apparently, it behooves the staff and the advisory folk in the University College to go out of their way to make clear that the selection of an undergraduate psychology major is no open door. Here we have possibly been remiss. To read the spontaneous comments on this score is an illuminating experience which clearly indicates that former students remember staff, not only with fondness, but also for the attitudes and values these people inculcated quite aside from the content of their teaching. We also scanned written remarks for negative items, such as complaints about tough grading, partisan instructors, too many required courses. For all of these we ceived a very small number of replies. But at least such comments showed us we were not merely getting compliments. For example, 16 respondents specifically complained about biased or partisan instructors who, they felt, rode a pet theory to the neglect of other content. Only 9 respondents felt there were too many required courses in the program; another 7 respondents had negative feelings about how grades were handed out. Most new course suggestions are now an integral part of the {from an assistant general manager) Between DrsX, Vand Z I'm not too sure which one of you influenced me more, but Ibelieve each of you have contributed to making me a much more clearer (sic) thinker, aware of individual difference, better insight into problems, etc. {Psychologist) I would say that the most significant aspects of my formal academic training were not so much the courses per se but the fact that I became mature enough in the final phases of my school years tofeel the influence of a few profs in the department {Dr. X,for one, tho I imagine he hardly realized the tremendous influence that he — — . . . curriculum (social, child-adolescence, human engineering, mental hygiene, etc.) with the one exception of a solid course in applied psychology. Personalities It was revealing and to some extent surprising, the large numbers of respondents who specifically recalled 12 was in my last year, altho he was the person who somehow got at me.) These comments clearly suggest that students respond to many features of the campus scene and that, possibly as most enduring, are the attitudes and points of view acquired at UB as a result of contact with an interested and able staff. Dr. Barnette graduated from the University in 1932; in 1936 he received his MA. As an instructor in psychology he spent three years at New York University and in 1949 earned his PhD. Thenext year he returned here andbecame chief vocational counselor. Veterans Administration Testing and Guidance. In 1951he became the director of the Center. He won the Fulbright Award in 1952, and look a year-leave as visitingprofessor in psychology andvocational guidance, Delhi,India. �APFLE-New Law Fund OPENING DINNER signaling the formal inauguration of THE The Annual Participating Fund for Legal Education was held in the Mary Seaton Room of Kleinhans Music Hall, May 2.

Israel is at present assisting Nigeria materially in this way—as it has effectively assisted Ghana. Nigeria has already made arrangements to draw upon Israeli technical resources after independence 1 Oct. 60. What a wealth of ideological and political learning can accompany the technical aid that in fact is the basis of this sort of relationship! And it would seem to be a valuable way for us to give the best of our system to these new economies. Fortunately, it may be said Israel is doing this for us; having had her start with American encouragement, she is now extending the results of our aid to her, to others. It is thousands of miles from America to the soft jungle breezes, the talking drums, and the myriads of hopeful people in the little Nigerian village of Awo Omamma. Yet uppermost in the minds of these people each day is the dream of help and hope America offers. The Unitarian Service Committee, sponsoring Awo's village improvement program;— Ben Nzeribe, who in Awo Omamma knows and lives the magic of America;—the technical persons who like myself have been fortunate in having some learning useful to the villagers;—and all the others who have and will have a part in the planning of Awo's future —all these hope to see a new and successful African society, relatively free of disease, want, and tyranny—in which individuals have significance and a measure of peace.

My wife Gretta Moore Lemon graduated in 1919. Myfather graduated in 1896. One of my sons earned more than 13 credits at U.B. and may be considered an alumnus even tho he finished his college work at U. of Oregon. So we should have 5 Lemons on the alumni list. Bert Lemon Ed—You're so right "Doc" as usual. We apologizefor the error. It is indeed a pleasure to be able to compliment you as a new editor on thefine "moonshooter" editionof the ALUMNI BULLETIN. Because it penetrates in depth the changing alumni scene (as well as in giving some insights into the needs and responsibilities of thealumnus himself) and the endless problem of financing higher education I believe it would be a worthwhile effort to send copies to the members of the class of 1960 who hopefully—even prayerfully—are now on the threshold of becoming alumni themselves. George F. Chambers Director " University Development Ed— We hope that each new alumnus!a of the Class of 1960 has enjoyed the copy of the April B ULLETIN. When I received the latest edition of the ALUMNI BULLETIN, for once I was compelled to read it from " cover to cover. While the Bulletin has shown a steady improvement since the small 4-pagers Iworked on manyyears ago, this edition was by far the best I have ever seen. Edward G.

NEW HEALTH Sciences Building, bringing together the Department of Biology and the schools of Pharmacy and Nursing, was dedicated at 11:15 a.m. on Saturday, September 10. Highlighting the program bringing the $2,500,000 structure into the University's life sciences services was the dedicatory address by Dr. Marion B. Folsom, former Secretary of the Department of Health, Education and Welfare and now Director of the Eastman Kodak Co. Dr. Folsom spoke following opening remarks by Chancellor Furnas. Lewis G. Harriman, vice chairman of The Council of the University, presided at the dedication. Dr. Furnas pointed out that along with bringing the departments of biology, pharmacy and nursing together, the new structure will allow a unified grouping with medicine, dentistry and medical research. THE �AGIANT STEP FORWARD "With thelocation of the new Health Sciences building adjacent to Capen Hall and Sherman Hall, it is now possible for the University to enjoy coordination in teaching and research among the inter-related disciplines of medicine, dentistry, biology, pharmacy and nursing," the Chancellor said. Capen Hall, erected in 1953, houses the Schools of Medicine and Dentistry. The center for Medical Research is located in Sherman Hall. The Chancellor said that the new building "marks another step in the establishment of a complete Health Sciences Center at the University." The present units of the Center represent an investment of over $8,500,000, he said, "but there is no yardstick to determine what this investment has provided for the people of Western New York." In its present form, theHealth Sciences Center takes a big step forward toward providing better health for the people of the Niagara Frontier. And the new Health Sciences building will have a direct relation to the contributions from the departments of biology, pharmacy and nursing. Dr. Clinton M. Osborn, chairman of the biology department, said that the new modern facilities in thebuilding will make possible "A broadened teaching program and the accommodation of a significant increase in students on all levels, particularly for those working toward advanced degrees." In addition, he said, "the department will now be able to participate in more extensivecollaboration with neighlems in biological sciences."

It broadcasts every evening during the school semesters and covers a radius of 25 miles. Mr. Stark is the newfaculty advisor. UB'S NEWEST VOICE by Andrew Paul Stark Photos by Lynn Eidinhr 6 �THE UNIVERSITY of Buffalo began to speak with a new voice on January 6, 1959. The Chancellor was heard throughout the city announcing the birth of WBFO, the University radio station, and for the past year and a half the community has enjoyed truly different radio programming. The station is operated by students working together under the banner of The Student Broadcasting Association Of The University OfBuffalo and by the guiding hands of some interested faculty. No praise could possibly approach the acknowledgment the dedicatedradio staff deserve. For the past eighteen months they havemaintained programming under conditions that would have demolished a commercial radio station. During the first six months of operation, the staff programmed with one turntable and one tape recorder in comparison with other local stations using four to eight turntables and tape recorders. Our personnel playing recorded music had to learn to ad lib the precious seconds required by the engineer to place and cue a new record on the turntable. Such practices as this must be excellent experiencefor the staffbecause nine of our former student executives are now employed in commercial radio and television. WBFO started as an FM station with the limited audience all FM stations catered to at that time. The past year, however, FM has grown in popularity. Now FM radios are selling on a par with standard AM sets and are even being installed in automobiles. This means that WBFO has been catapulted into pseudo-competition with everyother local station plus a college station at Canisius College due to start programming with first class equipment within the next year. Considering the competition, the list of achievements and firstsfor WBFO should make our alumni and administration beam with pride. A partial list includes: WBFO was the first local station to broadcast live " opera originating in Buffalo WBFO broadcast live music, including the Buda" pest String Quartet, from Baird Hall WBFO was the only radio station to cover civic " elections from the headquarters ofboth political parties thus permitting interviews of both winning and losing candidates before other stations WBFO had mobile-remote coverage of the Mov" ing-Up Day Parade WBFO presented tapes sent by Radio Moscow " (in English) was the only station to completely cover " WBFO the Civil Rights Conference, chairmannedby Senator Jacob Javits, on campus WBFO presented liveinterviews with government " officials such as Sheriff Tutuska andPolice Commissioner Felicetta presentedlive coverageofcampus baseball " WBFO games WBFO had United Press News coverage from our " wire machine in studios WBFO had a regular remote broadcast from an " art gallery was the station chosen to inaugurate " WBFO George Gershwin Week in Buffalo and cover the opening of Porgy andBess at a local theater WBFO teamed with WNED-TV to present the " first local stereophonic broadcast for television at all times works with other University " WBFO departments by providing technical assistance, re- cording equipment, etc. Here are some arrangements for our fall schedule and a little bit ofWBFO history. When the station began broadcasting in the city-wide FM frequency, we recognized theneed for a closed circuit station to the campus buildings—the dormitories in particular. The students pooled their efforts and private equipment to build a low power AMtransmitter to reach the dorms. True, our aerial was a wire hanging out a window—but it worked and the F.C.C. permitted us to use it. This AM operationon a closed circuit has allowed us to break in new personnel before graduating them to city-wide FM broadcasting. This year we plan adding new equipment, and starting an early morning program to be broadcast to the residence halls. Personnel is always a problem. As a radio station responsible to the Federal Communications Commission, we can accept only highly qualified students to our staff. Also radio work is highly time consuming and exacting. This meanswe need a large staff which creates a constant plea for new personnel. For this reason, the Deans at Buffalo State Teachers College have been contacted and offered to permit their students to work at our station. They would have all the privileges as our own personnel except running for elected offices. Some of their faculty might also work with us, so we envision fine cooperation resulting in quality programs this fall. A highlight of the coming season, if all arrangements can be made, will be a regularly scheduled newscast from Radio Moscow. WBFO considers informing the public one of its main duties as an educational radio station. Our two main educational objectives are catalogued internal and external purposes. Internally, we give students the opportunity to learn broadcasting. As Inotedearlier, many ofour staffgo into commercial broadcasting. It is also interesting to note that WBFO will offer to help train Canisius students as part of its educational efforts. Saturday morning will be an on-the-air workshop for new personnel—withcriticism from professionals from the local stations or our faculty. This will not only teach our staff, but also it will present the listening audience with a criteria for judging the quality ofother stations. Externally, WBFO will live up to the expectations of an educational station through its selection ofbroadcast(continued on page 14) 7 �NEW FACES Introducing new personnel and reporting promotions for the coming year (on next five pages). Dean of Engineering THIS HANDSOME gentleman looks more like a football coach, he is the new dean of the School of Engineering. E. A. Trabant (his friends call him Art, but the initials stand for Edward Arthur which he rarely uses) is a native Californian which might account for his athletic look. He is tall (6 feet 2% in.) and tanned and shoots in the low 90s on the golf course. He enjoys swimming, and puttering in his rose garden. Dr. Trabant's principal research interests have been in THO the fields of heat transfer, continuum mechanics and nuclear engineering. He received his AB degree from Occidental College, Los Angeles, and his PhD from California Institute of Technology in Pasadena. Beginning as an instructor in mathematics at Purdue University in 1947, Dr. Trabant was appointed associate professor of mathematics, mechanical engineering and engineering sciences in 1952. Two years later he was named the head of the division of engineering sciences and in 1955 he became the director of the Purdue Nuclear Engineering Laboratory. 8 Since 1956 he had held two additional posts —director of off-campus graduate programs in engineering and assistant dean of thePurdue Graduate School. He serves as a consultant to the Argonne National Laboratory, Lemont, 111.; Midwest Applied Science Corporation, Lafayette, Ind.; and General Technology Corporation, Chicago. He also is the consulting editor in engineering science for the Wadsworth Publishing Company in San Francisco. Membership includes: Phi Beta Kappa, Sigma Xi, American Society for Engineering Education, American Society of Mechanical Engineers and the American Mathematics Society. Dr. Trabant is married and has two daughters, Jeraldine M., 14 and Arta M., 10. Mrs. Trabant, a graduate of the University of Southern California, was president of the Faculty Women's Club at Purdue and has participated in many civic affairs. The family lives at 145 Troy-Del Way in Williamsville. �changing. An explanation of this change has been described by some by saying that engineering and engineers are becoming more closely allied to and like science and scientists. However, engineering and engineers do differ from science and scientists. Engineering encompasses the application of various principles of the sciences as well as the background knowledge for the analysis and synthesis of systems composed of structures, energy converters, circuits, processes, or a combination of these elements and the prediction of their behavior under specific working conditions in terms of men, materials, cost and time. Engineering problems tend to be specific in nature with concern shown for cost and deadlines. An engineer is required to integrate his work with other people of different training and experience and he must be willing to accept the responsibility for the social and economic implications of his work. With this as a working definition of an engineer and engineering, your School of Engineering at the University will meet its obligation to the future with a plan for the total education of engineers. A break with some traditional concepts of engineering education will occur. A New Concept in Engineering Education by E. A. Trabant THE PAST ten years the nation and the world entered into a period of great engineering and scientific change. This brought about a new concept in engineering education. From educational plans which were stabilized on a given set of ideas, a static situation, engineering education is at present dynamically DURING However, since students must have comprehension and wide application of the basic principles of the physical and engineering sciences which will not suffer obsolescence, a conservative approach will be in order for all new plans. In order to have successful and satisfying careers in the last forty years of the twentieth century, graduates from the School of Engineering at the University will be provided with the opportunity for the mastery of the basic engineering sciences and principles. Much attention will be paid to the development of verbal and mathematical skills. Communication of ideas will be stressed. A sound foundation will be provided for the understanding of socialand economic values for a feeling for the beautiful and morally good and for an understanding of human motives. At the same time teaching methods must be kept abreast of industry's use of new engineering facilities and methods and students must be taught to exploit these facilities. In the near future, as graduates of the School of Engineering, I will be sending you a report which will describe in more detail how your alma mater is seeking to fulfill her obligation to engineering students of today and tomorrow. It will be written with a frankness both as to problems and accomplishments thatis appropriatewithin the alumni family. In themeantime, I urge you to support your secondary schools for the continuance of the raising of standards in college preparatory work and to encourage interested and highly capable young people to enter engineering and for the most talented to continue with graduate work. Finally, I extend a cordial and sincere invitation to better acquaint yourselfwith the undergraduate, graduate and research facilities and capabilities of the School of Photos byLynn Eidinier Engineering. 9 �NEW FACES (Continued) Dr. English and Professor Geoffrey L. Slack of theLondon Hospital Medical College, Department ofDentistry. Dean of Dental School PARTICULARLY THOSE he can enter himself, art and traveling are some of the hobbies that the vivacious new dean of the School of Dentistry, James A. English has acquired. About sports, he says: "I'll try any, but I've never become an expert. I enjoy underwater spear fishing, I am a golfer (dubber class), I havebeen on a runner-up duck-pin bowling team (because we had a dandy handicap), and I have even been known to go horseback riding. (I havethe IV disc operation to prove it!)" Besides the Dean's avid interest in sports, he has done some painting, ("a few oils and pastels to help my art appreciation") collecting of coins and stamps, jewelrymaking such as cuff-links, rings and pins, and a bit of carpentry now and then. Being in the Navy (he's a captain) has given him the opportunity to do a good deal of traveling which he has enjoyed because he likes to compare the customs and viewpoints ofpersons in other countries. He hopes he will be able to bring a number of educators and scientists from Europe to the University on visiting fellowships and exchange professorships. SPORTS, 10 Dr. English is a proved scholar and administrator as well as a dentist. In 1936 he received his dental degree from the University ofPennsylvania with first honors. In 1948 that University presented him with his Master of Science degree. Johns Hopkins University awarded him the PhD in 1955. Since 1945, Dr. English has published in 28 research publications, and received much acclaim for his outstanding work. This past summer, he retired from the Navy. He had been active in administrative and research projects. In 1956-57 he was senior liaison officer of the Officeof Naval Research in London. Subsequently he was assigned to the Officeof Naval Research Bureau of Medicine & Surgery and the U.S. Naval Dental School in Washington. He is a Fellow, American College of Dentists, International College of Dentists and the American Association for Advancement of Science. He belongs to the American Dental Association, New York Academy of Science, American Academy ofOral Pathology and Royal Society of Medicine, London. He is president-elect ofthe International Association for Dental Research. Dr. English is married and has two children. �On Dental Education by Dr. James A. English THE TREMENDOUS ADVANCES in scientific knowledge and technology during the past century have made it increasingly difficult to giveprofessional students competence in all of the technical and fundamental specialties of their profession and at the same time provide adequate general education. The general aspects of education must be preserved and at the same time superiortechnical training must be given. A strong foundation in the physical sciences, social sciences, and humanities must be interwoven through the total course of training of the dental surgeon. This will develop men of strong moral fibre and provide a more cogent motivational drive in the student. It is important to instill an early awareness of the need to serve others and develop a desire to accomplish. Eradication of disease is an accomplishment that can provide a deep sense of gratification. Technical and scientific training has more purpose when background training in social and cultural areas has been adequate, for then the services rendered by the professional man to society are closely related to his basic needs and attitudes. Itis well recognized that research in thehealth sciences will help lessen the professional load. A strong research relationshipbetween the investigator who works in fundamental areas and the clinical investigator will serve to improve professional skills, provide means for treating more ills in greater numbers of patients and, most of all, will provide ways of preventing disease. There is an eventual advantage in spending proportionally more time in preventing disease than in treating it. Education and research go hand in hand, and the student who learns to make a contribution to the knowledge of his profession while in the University will continue to be research oriented in practice. There has been a lot of concern today about the inadequacy of "high calibre" students at the college level available to begin training in dentistry. The criteria pri- marily used in denning thecalibre of applicants for dental training is the score in the college grading system, with some accessory information being obtained by aptitude tests made available through the American Dental Association. Although a certain degree of correlation may be found between a high rating in these two criteria and success in dental schools, few criteria have been established with regard to successful dentists. Success is a culture-laden concept, and in America success would probably include high financial status, admission to select professional societies, invitations to give clinics and papers, writing ofprofessional publications, participation in community affairs, and certain personality and character traits. Certainly these are important criteria, and we need graduates who can succeed in a competitive profession that is geared to standards of this kind. Yet it seems that one could be called a successful dentist if he gave skillful care to his community, prevented extensive disease, tookpride in his work, kept abreast of advances in his profession and had the respect ofhis patients as well as his colleagues. With a good background in the humanities and social sciences, the dentist will have a sense ofvalues that will permit him to feel successful if heknows he has given good service to mankind and if he can take part in general community affairsby providing a modicum of leadership in occasional non-professional things. The school will do well to follow the careers of its graduates and observe how they score in a multitude of criteria of success. Where failures occur and inadequacies in the training seem to be at fault, changes can be instituted. When outstanding successes occur, contributions that the school has made toward such success can be noted and accentuated. Remembering that there are different kinds of success, our educational patterns must be kept flexible enough to permit the production ofa spectrum of graduates ranging from thesolid citizen to the sparkling leader or investigator. 11 �Thomas S. Shillo has been ap- pointed assistant dean of the School Mr. Thomas S. Shillo Dr. Robert L. Brown Mr. Leo C. Muller of Business Administration and lecturer in business organization, a position he previously held from 1954-57 before taking a leave of absence to study at Harvard University as a Ford Fellow. He succeeds James W. Riley who resigned as assistant dean in June to join the New York Stock Exchange. Mr. Shillo received his bachelor of science degree in 1953 and his master's in business administration in 1957. He has been on the staff since graduation. Dr. Robert L. Brown has been appointed acting dean of the Medical School and assistant professor of medicine. He succeeds Dr. Ernest Witebsky who resigned as dean in June. Dr. Brown received his pre-medical training here, and graduated from the Medical School in 1944. He served both his internship and assistant residency in internal medicine in Buffalo General Hospital. As a major in the Army, he was chief of medical services for the 124th General Hospital in Austria. Later he worked with the Armed Services Medical Material Standardization Committee. For a time he was assistant medical director and director of professional services for Armour Laboratories in Chicago. He joined the Arner Co. Inc. in 1954 becoming medical and technical director. In May 1959 he became assistant dean of the Medical School. Dr. Brown's father, Raymond C, is also an alumnus (DDS "19). Leo C. Muller has been named assistant to thevice-chancellor for planning and development and director of university relations. He succeeds Dr. D. Lincoln Harter who has become vice-president of Wagner College in Staten Island. A former high school English and sociology teacher, and a former secondary school principal, Mr. Muller has been teaching college journalism and directing public relations for a decade. A native of New Orleans, he holds a bachelor's degree in philosophy from Loyola University, a master's in school administration and journalismfrom Louisiana State University, (special work at the Medill School of Journalism, Northwestern University) and is a candidate for the doctorate degree at Indiana University, with a major in higher education and a minor in mass communications.

Sanders, Dempsey, Delaney and SPORTS BULLS of Head Coach Dick Offenhamerkicked off the 1960 grid campaign on September 17th in Mitchie Stadium, home of the Cadets of Army. This venture into the hallowed grounds of the U. S. Military Academy at West Point, N. V., marked the opening of the first ten-game schedule since 1916. Forty-four years ago the Bulls of UB finished with a mark of 3-5-2, defeating Hobart, Westminster and Thiel while losing to Rochester, Hamilton, Allegany, St. Bonaventure and Geneva and tying Grove City and Detroit at 0-0. Since that year, the usual number of games per season has hovered at seven or nine with a few seasons totaling six and eight. The personable Dick Offenhamer, usually a disciple of the Power ofPositive Thinking, is the first to admit that the thought of ten straight weeks of football without a holiday has caused his staff a busy summer, not to mention a considerable total of sleepless nights. Yes, Offie is concerned. The Bulls will have a chore facing them if they are to match the records of the past two seasons. In 1958Buffalo captured the Lambert Cup, emblematic of the Eastern Small-College Championship, and finished second to Delaware in 1959 with an identical 8-1-0 finish. This season will see the Bulls face the power of Colgate and Boston Universities,both games being held in Buffalo's War Memorial Stadium. How do the Bulls look at this date? Here they are UB has one of the finest quarterback corps in theEast with senior Gordon Bukaty (team captain) backed by the crowd-pleasing Gene Guerrie, master of the air lanes; Joe Oliverio who is sometimes called Mr. Dependable and sophomore Pat Price, as yet untested under college fire. The entire backfield is experienced and deep with the halfback calls most likely to go to lettermen Ron Clayback and Skip Maue who scored 24 and 22 points respectively last season. They'll be matching strides with lettermen Steve Salasny as well as classy Gene Reilly, Don Tripi and Roy Sommer, all juniors, the latter man being a surprise transferfrom the Bisons ofBucknell who is eligible to start play in September. Sophomore halves include Bob Baker, John Valentic and Dick Reeve. Looking to fullback, therewill be senior letterman Tom MacDougall ofDetroit who scored on his first play from scrimmage against Columbia in 1958, and Jerry Gergley, also a fourth-year letterman from Kenmore, N. Y. They will be backed by junior Joe Cesari from Kulpmont, Pa. and sophomores John Michno of Buffalo and Dan Nole from Utica, N. Y. While backfield coach Bob Deming is faced with a choice problem, things up front have end coach Ron Laßocque and interior line coach Mike Rhodes quite concerned. As Mike puts it, "You just don't see four THE .... 14 Fagan were a fearsome foursome." Mike did plenty about it during Spring practice sessions, assigning most of his time to developing an instantexperience potion for the talents of senior Bob Yanchuck, converted from guard; juniors Jack Hartman, Bob Miller, and Ed Mooradian, all over six feet and going 190, 195, 220and 225. There were encouraging performances given by sophomores Kevin Brinkworth, Ed Harris and Leroy Riley. They have good potential at 215, 230 and 215. The guards will average 196 pounds with three lettermen among the contenders. They are seniors Phil Bamford and Joe Shifflet and junior Bill Roof. The sophomores will be John Daniels, Dick Hort and Jim Wolfe. At center there'll be a real contest for the starting nod. Junior letterman Lv Lodestro will be pushed by senior Chuck Scott,also a veteran. Bernie Ralph has been moved from the guard duties he had as a sophomorein 1959 and Detroit's Armand Martin will no doubt see plenty of action. Ron Laßocque, who has seen moments of genius in his end prospects, hasn't named the men who were the most consistent in Spring drills. The best bets for starting assignments should be three lettermen. They are seniors Carley Keats and Nate Bliss or Bill Sclent, a junior. John Powley, also a junior as is Bob Ranus, will be joined by sophomores Jim Bowden and Chuck Winzer. There are still choice season-ticket seats available for UBfollowers, even though the Sports Boosters campaign has again broken all previous records with 2600 season passes now sold. Tickets for any or all games can be reserved by phoning or writing to the Athletic Ticket office, 104 Clark Gym,University of Buffalo, Buffalo 14, N. Y. Season tickets will assure you a choice seat for the five home games on the schedule listed below. A check for $16.50 mailed to the above address will indicate your support for the toughest schedule ever undertaken by Western New York's only intercollegiate football team. You'll see the Bulls continue their wide-open, professional style Split-T attack which packs explosive power both on the ground and via the air routes.

Unlike commercial stations, we have no intentions of trying to please as many people as possible every hour we are on the air. WBFO can present programs other stations cannot because of commercial pressures. Our aim is to build listening audiences for particular programs. For instance, David Posner's show Poetry Room won a wide following. The station's series UB IN '60broadcast live drama productions such as Saint Joan, Stalag 17,Dido andAeneas, and others from theBaird Hall stage. This series brought many new listeners from the local theater crowd. This fall Mr. Irwin Atkins of the Department of Drama and Speech will produce a play a month exclusively for WBFO. These will be three act plays lasting at least two hours. The commercial stations in the area have contributed greatly to our station. For example, WYSL gave us a turntable, WBEN supplied us with records, WGR sent announcers to coach our staff—and on down the list. At all times they were willing to listen to our problems and give WBFO needed advice. If any alumni wish to advise us or comment on our programming, we would be delighted to hearfrom them. Write to WBFO, University of Buffalo, Buffalo 14, New York. Remember, it's your station too. (continuedfrompage 1) According to Dean Daniel H.

Mogavero BA'5B Editor CAMERON BAIRD Many individuals and many communities will feel painfully the loss of Cameron Baird, taken from them far ahead of the span most men have come to expect: His large and loving family and his many friends, whose range and complexity it would be hard, indeed, impossible to set down. Cameron Baird was deeply sensitive to people, deeply aware of them, kind and generous in subtle ways and on unknown occasions, the sum of which he alone could count. The University community will miss him, above all the Music Department, for whose growth and excellence he was largelyresponsible, St. Paul's church of which he was so long a loyal member, the music community of the city, and Buffalo itself, of which The News named him an outstanding citizen in 1958. Nor should one leave out the baseball enthusiasts, then tennis fans. And this does not begin to exhaust his range. For Cameron Baird was many things to many people; for all alike the quality of his response, the richness of the man was a rare privilege for all too short a time. * * * The above editorial (May 7, 1960, Buffalo Evening News) expressed the loss which the University Family shared with the Community in the untimely death of Cameron Baird. This issue of the Bulletin is dedicated to the memory of the former chairman of the music department who felt "Nulla solus nisi musica." ("Unless there is music, the sun doesn't shine.") Since his appointment in 1952, he labored hard and effectively in building the reputation of the University as a fine arts center, attracting world famous artists to the campus. In 1957the completion of the new Music Build- ing—named in memory of his illustrious father—added greatly to the efficiency and prestige of music education. The following pages relate why the Department of Music has had such great success in its short history— Cameron Baird provided the inspiration and leadership. �Reflections of a MUSIC Student LORENE ESCHNER is a pretty 21-year-old senior in the Music School whose ambition is to become "a goodhigh school music teacher." She looks forward to conducting her own band and orchestra and putting on high school operas and musicals. The daughter of alumnus, Edward G., MD'36, Lorene is the second in a family offive children. She is a conscientious student, an excellent performer, (playing the Viola, singing and acting) an art-lover, painting being her favorite hobby, and likes any activity that takes place on water. In a conversation with the Editor, Lorrie tells her own story of what the last 3Vi years of studying music at the University have meant to her. (On next 8 pages) 3 �COLLEGE HAS OFFERED me the chance to grow socially and intellectually. Obviously it's a more maturing experience than high school, possibly, I suppose, because of the close association between students and faculty members. Music students, especially, need this close relationship to become better musicians. Music is so subjective—it comes from the heart!—and one can't increase musical sensitivity in a stilted, formal relationship. The intellectual fare? Well, in my opinion I've been offered one of the finest educations obtainable. I've not only had expert training in my major field, the viola, but I've also had the opportunity to study every other orchestral and band instrument. This year, as a senior, I'm spending over 180 hours in teaching music on the elementary and secondary levels. Along with this concen- Lorene has been studying the Violafor the past nine years. Her most formal 4 tration, I've already had 40 hours in the Humanities— English, European history, sociology, and geology. More and more I realize how important it is for a music teacher to be broadly educated. Of course there are successful teachers without college educations, but generally they seem to have rather narrow interests. Here I've learned that the world doesn't revolve around a sharp or a flat. For example, I found I needed more training in English composition, even though I had good marks in that subject in high school. I've had the chance to strengthen that here. And geology has been really fascinating, especially thefield trips. Before taking the course, I never had enough interest to browse through the local Museum of Science. Why UB? Really, Mr. Baird inspired me to come here. At first I had a strong desire to go away to college, but training has been under Fred Ressel, first violistfor the Buffalo Philharmonic Orchestra. �"It's important for a music teacher to be broadly educated." in the spring of 1957 I met Dr. Irving Cheyette at the Erie County All-State Festival. He told me about ÜB's new music building, then under construction, and created enough interest in me so that later I visited the campus. Then I met Mr. Baird. He was an easy man to like and admire, and I did, right away—probably because he took such enthusiastic interest in me. And of course, the viola was his favorite instrument and this created a bond between us. Well, he encouraged me to study music education, and showed me architect's plans for Baird Hall in general, he"sold" me on UBand I've never been sorry. And part of my feeling, I know, was an earnest desire not to let him down. He was truly an inspiring man. And then I was fortunate enough to get support from the Erie County Music Association as well as a Simon Scholarship, and my father, who is a UB alumnus, influenced — me too. You may be interested to know what a music major absorbs in four years. Well, number one on the list is learning to play the piano, and passing the piano exam. This is a necessity for music teachers. They are often called on to play for school and community activities, and must be able to sight-read fluently. To be certified, a student must be able to play all of the 36 scales, major and minor; know a composition of the Romantic and Classical periods; be able to harmonize scales up to four sharps and four flats, and harmonize at sight a melody given by the instructor. Beyond this, music education majors must be able to play by heart "The Star Spangled Banner" and "America." Extra-curricular activities sponsored by the Department are varied enough to satisfy the interests of any student. Mine have includedplaying viola in the Orchestra Lorrie asa choirboy in the recent opera production "Tosca" with Richard Siegel, BA'6O, who played Scarpia. Mr. Siegel is aformer Voices of Tomorrow winner and presently is a graduate French student, minoring in music. for the past three years, playing the glockenspiel and clarinet in the band, singing soprano in the Chorale, and appearing in some nine or ten operas and musical productions. Yes, I'm looking forward to graduation, and the chance to teach some of the things I've learned here.And I hope I can take with me what many of us call "the spirit of Baird Hall." This means, to me, an intense interest in the professional development of every student. At ÜB, every student is made to feel his accomplishments and achievements reflect upon the entire Department. Mostly everyone wants to maintain the highest possible standards in memory of our benefactor, Cameron Baird. This may sound sentimental, but although he may be dead, his spirit is very much alive in his building. His name is always on someone's lips, and I know his memory will be honored by UB music students for generations to come. A word of advice? Yes—if you're interested in college, I really suggest you take a good look at your area colleges before deciding on the romantic far away places. Possibly college would have meant as much to me elsewhere, but I can't help but wonder ifit would have been such a really significant experience. — Dr. Irving Cheyette shows the correct embouchure {mouth position) needed in playing a wind or brass instrument. Lorrie finds it difficult to develop the lip muscles necessary {continued on nextpage) for blowing the trumpet. Trumpet Class 5 �"I've been offered one of the finest educations obtainable." ITS ORGANIZATION by Cameron Baird nearly eight years ago, the University of Buffalo Music Department has oriented itself more toward community service than toward the conservatory idea. Rather than a concentration upon the development of virtuoso performers, the department has focussed upon the development of "discriminating and capable musicians, intentupon serving their communities as well as on attaining virtuoso skill." Performance ability is of prime importance of course in such a goal, but students for whom this is the only goal belong in a conservatory, not a university. A well-rounded liberal education, including understandings of the history of our own and other cultures, at least oneforeign language, some familiarity with the other fine arts, and the ability to express one's ideas accurately and forcefully, are certainly as important to the developing musician who would be other than a performing technician as a full understanding of his own field. The majority of the students who have graduated from the Music Department of the University have exemplified these motives. What area of music can be of more service to others than that of Music Education? Already there is a substantial number of UB graduates teaching music in the public schools of Western New York. Each year the number of graduates in this field increases. These students have graduated from a program which has been lauded as one of thefinest teacher preparatory programs in music offered in New York State. Besides the basic courses in Theory, Counterpoint, Orchestration, and Conducting, each Music Education student must have performing ability upon at least one instrument, a basic facility at the Piano, and the SINCE 6 The student will have put in many hours of actual classroom teaching under expert professional supervision before the degree is granted, and he steps forth to lead others on theroad to greater appreciation and enjoyment of music with his BFA degree in Music Education. For the student who wishes to serve in the performing and/or instrumental or vocal teaching fields the BFA degree in Applied Music is available. The basic core of music great advantage over the student enrolled in a conservatory. Next fall a new BFA program will be added to these two, a degree with a major in Sacred Music. Several students are already enrolled at the lower academic levels in anticipation of this program. It will prepare for professional careers as organists and choir directors and cantors in churches and synagogues. There is an everincreasing need for more highly trained musicians in these fields. The BA degree program is for the student who does not plan a professional career in music, but who desires to concentrate in this area while pursuing a broad liberal education. More than half of the courses taken by such a student are outside the Well-known teachers likePamela Gearhart give special instruction to students in their major instrument. Here Mrs. Gearhart shows violin technique. courses isamplified with concentrated field of music, and courses taken within the field are not so carefully prescribed as those preparing professional musicians must necessarily be. However, basic theoretical, musicological, and applied music requirements must be met in this area also. Graduate level study is also available in music at the University of Buffalo. The Master of Arts in the ability to coach beginning students on any instrument of the band or orchestra. Education courses and a generous helping of the liberal arts needed by all who would understand the society in which we must live and work round out the student's training. study in the student's medium of musical expression. The finest performers in Western New York are available to lead him. Such a student is crippled without a rich liberal arts understanding, and this is also provided with a University faculty of great renown. Here is the place where the University student has the �Humanities programs have large numbers of students already under way, and several students have graduated from these disciplines during the very few years that they have been available. Programs of study include applied music and composition. Special note should be taken of the marvelous opportunity in the latter area which is available to UB students. The Slee bequest providing for a Professor of Composition in residence has brought to UB some of the leading composers of our time. Already we have been honored to include on the music faculty such great composers as Aaron Copland, Carlos Chavez, Leon Kirchner, and Ned Rorem. And there will be more. Students are beginning to come from all Several special courses have attracted the attention of the musical public. Form & Analysis, presented each semester by the Slee Professor of Composition; Opera Workshop, a training ground for singers and potential stage managers interested in taking part in the larger university productions and perhaps even greater careers, is presented by Richard Marshall and Seenie Rothier; Piano Teaching Methods & Techniques has been sought out by many local piano teachers, and is taught by Allen Giles; Music History courses are taught by Frank D'Accone, a new faculty member who has just completed the work for his doctorate at Harvard; and the Applied Music faculty, consisting of leading performers Many students play the organ as well as the piano, but mastering the latter is the one single most important qualifica- tion each music student mustfulover the United States and Canada and evenfrom Latin America to work with these distinguished composers. Large numbers of teachers of music from the Niagara Frontier are en- rolled in the Master of Education program at ÜB, doing the bulk of their graduate work with the Music Department faculty. being exhaustingly examined in a search for a distinguished chairman to fill the position left by the death of the founder and first chairman of the Music Department, Cameron Baird. Slee professors ofcomposition from the music centers of the world will be coming to give our department ever greater appeal to more talented students. The projected new theater will make possible finer operatic productions and concerts playing to much larger audiences than can now be crowded into the confines of Baird Hall. More and larger scholarships are becoming available to provide for the greatly talented students who need financial assistance in an age of increasing costs.

But, the Music Department does not intend to rest upon the laurels it has amassed during its brief existence. Music schools and departments of leading universities are now of Buffalo, emergingfrom its infancy, is now on its way toward greater growth and service. Allen Giles, assistant professor ofmusic, and associate director ofthe Music Dethis article describing the Department's philosophy. partment, wrote {continued on next page) 7 �"Extracurricular activities are varied enough to suit the interest of any student..." ... Lectures and Concerts The Budapest String Quartet has been performing every year, under the Slee Bequest, since 1955. The bequest asks that the complete Beethoven Cycle ofString Quartets be given every year. WHEN THE FINAL note of a composition is inscribed, the composer's work is done, and also his creative struggle and pleasure. This work was accomplished mostly in silence and alone. Yet, music, to have meaning for others, must be played aloud, —and the road from composition to audition can be rough and long." Ned Rorem, Slee Professor of Composition for the past year at the University, and one of America's leading composers gives this practical warning to music students who dream of becoming composers. Professor Rorem knows from experience how long the road can be. He received his first musical training at Northwestern and the Curtis institute. After two fellowships to Tanglewood he was recipient of a Master's degree at Juilliard, and of numerous honors including the Gershwin Memorial Award, the Lili Boulanger Award, a Fullbright Fellowship and a Guggenheim Fellowship. Creative music, he says, is seldom remunerative in itself. Most composers work in related professions such as performing, teaching or reviewing. In 1958, Mr. Rorem was offered a regular job, the Slee professorship, by the late Cameron Baird. The will of Frederick and Alice Slee provides for a master-teacher of 8 composition, an annual cycle of the complete Beethoven string quartets by a nationally known chamber group, and five other chamber music concerts. Mr. Rorem was the first of the composers to come for a full year. (Aaron Copland, Carlos Chavez and Leon Kirchner had each held the position for a semester.) Also, Mr. Rorem is the first of these visitors actually to compose a piece for the School. Last May 14, in Baird Hall, he conducted the world premiere of his work, "Eleven Studies for Eleven Players," which was dedicated to Mr. Baird. Can a composer teach students to become composers? "Composers are born, not made," says Mr. Rorem. "You can lead a horse to water, but not make him drink." "About all I can do is shape students artistically, not practically. I endeavor to guide them, to separate the wheat from the chaff, to bring out the creator hidden in us all." During his year in Buffalo, Mr. Rorem has become integrated with both school and community, lecturing and performing his works. He has enjoyed his stay because he feels the University's music school, though very young, may soon be up to the finest. �. Opera Richard J. Marshall, assistant professor of music and director of the Choral and OperaProgram, is the author of this article. He came to the University in 1959. Jean Deresienski Marshall and Vahan Khanzadian did superb jobs as Tosca and Mario in the opera production, "Tosca." Mrs. Marshall has a B.M. in opera from Indiana University: Mr. Khanzadian is a senior in physical education here. YEARS AGO the Music Deensconced in an old house on Winspear Avenue with very inadequate facilities, but this didn't stop the late Cameron Baird from bringing live opera to the campus. FIVE partment was He borrowed the use of Norton Auditorium, and with the help of Herbert Beattie as music director and James Bravar as stage and technical director, PurcelFs Dido and Aeneas was presented. So successful was this first production that an opera pro- gram was instituted at the University. Since then, fifteen different operas have been staged. Baird Hall was erected in 1956, and the Opera Theatre was given a place to function, albeit a small one. The "theatre" has a 240 seat student recital hall with a platform. With the addition of good lighting equipment and clever designing, operas can be successfully staged, and shop and storage facilities are provided in the basement. As there is no orchestra pit, the orchestra is placed in the balcony. A television camera is focused on the conductor and the cast sees his image in three TV sets located around the apron of the stage. When Mr. Beattie departed for the New York City Center and his singing career two years ago, and Mr. Bravar left for further study at Yale, Mr. Baird came to Schenectady to watch me work with the Schenectady Light Opera Company. I was invited to come here and take over the Opera program. Although we had no technical director, stagedirectororreal theater, we {continued on next page) 9 �.. Musical Productions, Chorus put on four works in the 1959-60 season. The Telephone and The Medium were received with acclaim due in large part to the magnificent work of Patricia Oreskovic, a former student, as the Medium. Next we performed Benjamin Britten's interesting chamber opera, TheRape ofLucretia. Then, in celebration of our fifth year in opera we revived Purcell's Dido and Aeneas with unique costuming by Trevor Thomas, who had previously been associated with a theater in Liverpool and is now residing inLondon, England. This opera was televised by WBEN-TV. In May we closed with a unique madrigal fable, The Unicorn, The Gorgon, and The Manticore by Gian Carlo Menotti— a piece for chamber orchestra, madrigal chorus, and dancers. Choreography was designed and executed by Seenie Rothier. This year Henry A. Wicke, Jr., who had been associated with the Speech and Drama Department, was hired as technical director and designer and Sally Levin became publicity director—two much needed additions. We have also obtained a huge stock of costumes for our use due to the closing of Mickey's Costume Shop in Rochester. Many of the costumes were madefor the opera department at the Eastman School of Music. Technical director and designer Henry A. Wicke, Jr. (rt.) shows some ofthe newly acquired stock of We opened the 1960-61 season with Puccini's Tosca andplayed four nights to capacity audiences and then gave a fifth performance over WBEN-TV.

Under the direction of Lowell Shaw, instructor in music, the 54-piece band, made its debut at the Youngstown University game at Rotary Field. Richard H. Fagan, band director in Lancaster, is the marching consultant and has written most of the shows performed during the recent season. Tom Haenle, assistant director of Norton Union, is the financial advisor. Leading the Bulls as drum major has been Maurice Van Sice, a senior in pharmacy, and the majorette has been Bonnie Grimm, a junior in physical education. Under their direction, the band has practiced ardently twice during the week and on Saturday mornings. With their new uniforms, fine director, and spirit, this marching band has won the hearts of all of the University family. We hope we'll see much more of them in the future.

I propose, in what follows, to dealwith only one of these problems, namely, the adaption of university education to EDUCATION modern conditions. Universities are an institution of considerable antiquity. They developed during the twelfth and thirteenth centuries out of cathedral schools where scholastic theologians learned the art of dialectic. But, in fact, the aims which inspired universities go back to ancient times. One may say that Plato's Academy was the first university. Plato's Academy had certain well-marked objectives. It aimed at producing the sort of people who would be suitable to become Guardians in his ideal Re- public. The education which Plato designed was not in his day what would now be called "cultural." A "cultural" education consists mainly in the learning of Greek and Latin. But the Greeks had no need to learn Greek and no occasion to learn Latin. Plato mainly wished his Academy to teach first, mathematics and astronomy, and, then, philosophy. The philosophy was to have a scientific inspiration with a tincture of Orphic mysticism. Something of this sort, in various modified forms, persisted in the West until the Fall of Rome. After some centuries, it was taken up by the Arabs and, from them, largely through the Jews, transmitted back to the West. "Copyright 1959, Editorial Projects for Education, Inc., All rights reserved. 12 �In the West it still retained much of Plato's original political purpose, since itaimed at producing an educated elite with a more or less complete monopoly of political power. This aim persisted, virtually unchanged, until the latter half of the nineteenth century. From that time onwards, the aim has become increasingly modified by the intrusion of two new elements: democracy and science. The intrusion of democracy into academic practice and theory is much more profound than that of science, and much more difficult to combine with anything like the aims of Plato's Academy. Until it was seen that political democracy had become inevitable, universal education, which is now taken for granted in all civilized countries, was vehemently opposed, on grounds which were broadly aristocratic. There had been ever since ancient times a very sharp line between the educated and the uneducated. The educated had had a severe training and had learnt much, while the uneducated could not read or write. The educated, who had a monopoly of political power, dreaded the extension of schools to the "lower classes". The President of the Royal Society, in the year 1807, considered that it would be disastrous if working men could read, since he feared that they would spend their time reading Tom Paine. When my grandfather established an elementary school in his parish, well-to-do neighbours were outraged, saying that he had destroyed the hitherto aristocratic character of the neighbourhood. It was political democracy— at least, in England—that brought a change of opinion in this matter. Disraeli, after securing the vote for urban working men, favoured compulsory education with the phrase, "We must educate our masters." Education came to seem the right of allwho desired it. But it was not easy to see how this right was to be extended to university education; nor, ifit were, how universities couldcontinue to perform their ancient functions. The reasons which have induced civilized countries to adopt universal education are various. There were enthusiasts for enlightenment who saw no limits to the good that could be done by instruction. Many of these were very influential in the early advocacy of compulsory education. Then there were practical men who realized that a modern State and modern processes of production and distribution cannot easily be managed if a large proportion of the population cannot read. A third group were those who advocated education as a democratic right. There was a fourth group, more silent and less open, which saw the possibilities of education from the point of view of official propaganda. The importance of education in this regard is very great. In the eighteenth century, most wars were unpopular; but, since men have been able to read the newspapers, almost all wars have been popular. This is only one instance of the hold on public opinion which Authority has acquired through education. Although universities were not directly concerned in these educational processes, they have been profoundly affected by them in ways which are, broadly speaking, inevitable, butwhich are, in part, very disturbingto those who wish to preserve what was good in older ideals. It is difficult to speak in advocacy of older idealswithout using language that has a somewhat old-fashioned flavour. There is a distinction, which formerly received general recognition, between skilland wisdom. The growing complexities of technique have tended to blur this distinction, at any rate in certain regions. There are kinds of skillwhich are not speciallyrespected although they are difficult to acquire. A contortionist, I am told, has to begin training in early childhood, and, when proficient, he possesses a very rare and difficult skill. But it is not felt that this skill is socially useful, and it is, therefore, not taught in schools or universities. A great many skills, however, indeed a rapidly increasing number, are very vital elements in the wealth and power of a nation. Most of these skills are new and do not command the respect of ancient tradition. Some of them may be considered to minister to wisdom, but a great many certainly do not. But what, you will ask, do you mean by "wisdom?" I am not prepared with a neat definition. But I will do my best to convey what I think the word is capable of meaning. It is a word concerned partly with knowledge and partly with feeling. It should denote a certain intimate union of knowledge with apprehension of human destiny and the purposes of life. It requires a certain breadth of vision, which is hardly possible without considerable knowledge. But it demands, also, a breadth of feeling, a certain kind of universality of sympathy. I think that higher education should do what is possible towards promoting not only knowledge, but wisdom. I do not think that this is easy; and I do not think that the aim should be too conscious,for, ifit is, itbecomes stereotyped and priggish. It should be something existing almost unconsciously in the teacher and conveyed almost unintentionally to the pupil. I agree with Plato in thinking this the greatest thing that education can do. Unfortunately, it is one of the things most threatened by the intrusion of crude democratic shibboleths into our universities. The fanatic of democracy is apt to say that all men are equal. There is a sense in which this is true, but it is not a sense which much concerns the educator. What can be meant truly by the phrase "All men are equal" is that in certain respects they have equal rights and should have an equal share of basic political power. Murder is a crime whoever thevictim may be, and everybody should be protected against it by the lawand the police. Any set of men or women which has no share in political power is pretty certain to suffer injustices of an indefensible sort. All men should be equal before the law. It is such principles which constitute what is valid in democracy. But this should not mean that we cannot recognize differing degrees of skill or merit in different individuals. Every teacher knows that some pupils are quick to learn and others are slow. Every teacher knows that some boys (continued on next page) 13 �and girls are eager to acquire knowledge, while others have to be forced into the minimum demanded by Authority. When a group of young people are all taught together in one class, regardless of their greater or less ability, the pace has to be too quick for the stupid and too slow for the clever. The amount of teaching that a young person needs depends to an enormous extent upon his ability and his tastes. A stupid child will only pay attention to what has to be learnt while the teacher is there to insist upon the subject-matter of the lesson. A really clever young person, on the contrary, needs opportunity and occasional guidance when he finds some difficulty momentarily insuperable. The practice of teaching clever and stupid pupils together is extremely unfortunate, especially as regards the ablest of them. Infinite boredom settles upon these outstanding pupils while matters that they have long ago understood are being explained to thosewho are backward. This evil is greater the greater the age of the student. By the time that an able young man is at a university, what he needs is occasional advice (not orders) as to what to read, and an instructor who has time and sympathy to listen to his difficulties. The kind of instructor that I have in mind should be thoroughly competent in the subject in which the student is specializing, but he should be still young enough to remember the difficulties that are apt to be obstacles to the learner, and not yet so ossified as to be unable to discuss without dogmatism. Discussion is a very essential part in the education of the best students and requires an absence of authority if it is to be free and fruitful. 1 am thinking not only of discussion with teachers but of discussion among the students themselves. For such discussion, there should be leisure. And, indeed, leisure during student years is of the highest importance. When I was an undergraduate, I made a vow that, when in due course 1 became a lecturer, I would not think that lectures do any good as a method of instruction, but only as an occasional stimulus. So far as the abler students are concerned, I still take this view. Lectures as a means of instruction are traditional in universities and were no doubt useful before the invention of printing, but since that time they have been out of date as regards the abler kind of students. It is, I am profoundly convinced, a mistake to object on democratic grounds to the separation of abler from less able pupils in teaching. In matters that the public considers important no one dreams of such an application of supposed democracy. Everybody is willing to admit that some athletes are better than others and that movie stars deserve more honour than ordinary mortals. That is because they have a kind of skill which is much admired even by those who do not possess it. But intellectual ability, so far from being admired by stupid boys, is positively and actively despised; and even among grown-ups, the term "egg-head" is not expressive of respect. It has been one of the humiliations of the military authorities of our time that the man who nowadays 14 brings success in war is no longer a gentleman of commanding aspect, sitting upright upon a prancing horse, but a wretched scientist whom every military-minded boy would have bullied throughout his youth. However, it is not for special skill in slaughter that I should wish to see the "egg-head" respected. The needs of the modernworld have brought a conflict, which I think could be avoided, between scientific subjects and those that are called "cultural." The latter represent tradition and still have, in my country, a certain snobbish pre-eminence. Cultural ignorance, beyond a point, is despised. Scientific ignorance, however complete, is not. I do not think, myself, that the division between cultural and scientific education should be nearly as definite as it has tended to become. I think that every scientific student should have some knowledge of history and literature, and that every cultural student should have some acquaintance with some of the basic ideas of science. Some people will say that there is not time, during the university curriculum, to achieve this. But I think that opinion arises partly from unwillingness to adapt teaching to those who are not going to penetrate very far into the subject in question. More specifically, whatever cultural education is offered to scientific students should not involve a knowledge of Latin or Greek. And I think that whatever of science is offered to those who are not going to specialize in any scientific subject should deal partly with scientific history and partly with general aspects of scientific method. I think it is a good thing to invite occasional lectures from eminent men to be addressed to the general body of students and not only to those who specialize in the subject concerned. There are some things which I think it ought to be possible, though at present it is not, to take for granted in all who are engaged in university teaching. Such men or women must, of course, be proficient in some special skill. But, inaddition to this, there is a general outlook which it is their duty to put before thosewhom they are instructing. They should exemplify the value of intellect and of the search for knowledge. They should make it clear that what at any time passes for knowledge may, in fact, be erroneous. They should inculcate an undogmatic temper, a temper of continual search and not of comfortable certainty. They should try to create an awareness of the world as a whole, and not only of what is near in space and time. Through the recognition of the likelihood of error, they should make clear the importance of tolerance. They shouldremind the student thatthosewhom posterity honours have very often been unpopular in their own day and that, on this ground, social courage is a virtue of supreme importance. Above all, every educator who is engaged in an attempt to make the best of the students to whom he speaks must regard himself as the servant of truth and not of this or that political or sectarian interest. Truth is a shining goddess, always veiled, always distant, never wholly approachable, but worthy of all the devotion of which the human spirit is capable. �First in a series devoted to recognizing achievements ofAlumni A FAMOUS ALUMNUS- THE GREAT CAPTAIN of modern warfare, Na- poleon, composed the maxim, "Le secret de la guerre est dans le secret de communications" (the secret of warfare is in the secret of communications.) But it was Albert James Myer, MD 1851, who actually discovered the solution to the problem—flag-signaling. A Comanche chief signaling his men with a spear suggested the new form of communications to Myer. This modification of the sign language of the Plains Indians was so simple and effective that it became the signal system of our present army and navy, later spread to the boy scouts, and has now been adopted by practically all nations as an international language. Myer's attention was called to the need for a kind of signal language when he obtained a commission as assistant surgeon in the regular army after he had graduated from Buffalo Medical College, as it was called then. He was ordered to New Mexico where he came upon the Comanches making signals to other groups of Indians by waving their lances. It struck him that such movements might be utilized for connecting adjacent military posts, or parts of an army in active operations. The young surgeon became so interested in the idea that he devoted much of his leisure time to its development and finally devised a system of signals which became the basis of the code or codes used during the war. He came east, explained the system to the authorities, and took out letters patent on his invention. In 1858 a board was appointed to examine Myer's system and its application to the army. The board approved the system, and experiments were instituted under the direction of the Secretary of War. Albert James Myer, MD 1851— Father of the Signal Corps and the Weather Bureau. Ft. Myer, Va. is named in his honor. Myer was appointed signal officer, July 6, 1861, with the rank of major. In his letter of acceptance, he asked that since the system was new and of great importance, could he be permitted to assume responsibility for his plans and, be left unrestricted in carrying them out. The first practical field trial of the flag signals was made at Fort Fauntleroy, New Mexico, where Myer had been ordered. For about a month daily practice continued until November 25, when the men took the field in an Indian Campaign. Myer wrote in his report, "Signal practice has now passed from the experimental to the practical stage." The use of the signal system as an auxiliary in Indian warfare attracted general attention, although there was the usual opposition to the new service (flag-floppers). The outbreak of the Civil War offered the opportunity for the flag-signal system to pass from the Indian campaigns on the Great Plains to the field of larger battles for Colonel Myer carried the system into the northern service. Since that time the Signal Corps has been an important branch of the Military Service. Later Myer became famous with the publication of his Manualfor Signals. In 1870 the Weather Bureau was founded, basing much of system on Myer's findings of the value of sending storm warnings from data collected at scattered points. Until his death in 1880, Dr. Myer continued hiswork, building a more reliable weather service for business and military use.

For this reason, we thought you might like to have a capsule report of developments at the mailing deadline of the Alumni Bulletin. Later issues will keep you posted on developments. Certainly, if any one group should be vitally interested and completely informed on the ultimate future of ÜB, it is the loyal alumni who have so generously supported the University. We sincerely hope that what is read or rumored is not interpreted in any way other than that all explorations of the matter of the Heald Report are being studied. For your immediate perusal, we are reprinting an article from the New York Times of December 4, which tells the story as it is today. We refer you especially to paragraph two. Obviously, changes of this magnitude cannot be effected in a short time, and quite frankly, during this time, as in the past, UB needs the generous and enthusiastic support of all Alumni. We earnestly ask that you continue in your same spirit of loyalty to assist the University through the annual Alumni Fund, the Funds, and the Development Funds, and in whatever way you can.

Furnas MODERN URBAN university must, by definition and by necessity, be a vital, moving dynamic contributor to, and leader of, the community in which it lives. And it must live in the community, rather than merely be situated there. But what is the community of the modern university, or more specifically what is the community of the University of Buffalo? Chancellor Furnas answers this question in his recent AnnualReport to the University Council. "Even though the University is a private institution in that itdoes not receive tax-support, it has fulfilled in Western New York the role of amajor State University, providing broadeducational opportunity for young and old, and offering graduate and professional education of significant magnitude and extent. "In one recent year, which is typical, all the judges of the City Court of Buffalo and of the County Court of Erie County, and the majority of the judges of the Supreme Court of the Judicial District of New York State were alumni of the University. As of January 1958, the University had trained 85 per cent of all pharmacists in THE �New York State west of Syracuse, 61.2 per cent of all the Physicians in Erie County, 61.3 per cent of all lawyers practicing in Erie County, and 83.2 per cent of all dentists in the Eighth Judicial District. The University, its graduates and its faculty play a uniquely important and ever-increasing role in the scientific, cultural, business and industrial life of the region." But, the Chancellor notes, "The Niagara Frontier is an intellectual frontier bordering on today's closely knit and sensitively interactive world community. It is not and cannot be an entity unto itself. "If the University is to continue to meet its responsibilitiesas a large-multi-purpose institution,it must extend its influence and activity into the national and world community. Only in this way will come ideas, methods, and practices, fresh and provocative. Recognition will be multiplied and the quest for truth and knowledge will be enriched and more efficiently pursued. "Evidences of this abound everywhere—from the campus buildings which house the increased enrollments to the great strides inresearch which may ultimately have a bearing on all mankind. "Truly, the University is experiencing unprecedented growth as it continues to realize its great potential and the great need to serve in the field of higher learning. The Cover Adequate housing—a strong undergraduate and graduate program in the liberal arts—and a fine library—these are basic essentials for the complex university which aspires to national stature. Joan Menschenfreud, a junior art student shows how the University must meet the challenge ofhigher education—through broadening its educational horizons.

Because of the post-war bulge in the nation's birthrate more and more of our youth are and will be going to college in the next decade. In New York State alone, enrollments are expected to increase 61 per cent in six years, double by 1970, and triple by 1985. Compared to the 1959 figure of 401,000, this tripling would mean that some 1,270,000 young men and women would be of college age. {continued on page 2) President: Edward G. Andrews, Jr..

Mogavero BA'5B Editor 3 �Broadening Educational Opportunities Continued from page 1 Besides this, there will be an increase in the proportion of young people graduating from high school, the percentage of high school graduates going to college fulltime and the number of part-time enrollments. It is for these reasons that fourteen months ago Governor Rockefeller appointed a Committee on Higher Education to review the needs and resources of New York State in higher education. The Heald Report was the outcome of this Committee composed of Dr. Henry T. Heald. chairman, president of the Ford Foundation, Dr. John W. Gardner, president of the Carnegie Corporation, and Marion B. Folsom. former U. S. Secretary of Health, Education and Welfare. Heald committee proposals In essence, here are the most significant recommendations of the Heald Report designed to put New York colleges and universities in the forefront of the nation's fight to meet the demands of higher education. These major proposals are being closely studied by the Governor, legislators, educators across the state and other officials responsible for the state's college programs: I—That two new public universities—"designed to stand with the finest in the country" be established. One would be at an existing site at Stony Brook. L.1.. and the other upstate. 2—That eight or nine of the state's eleven colleges of education be converted into liberal arts colleges. 3—That the state act to strengthen private colleges. The first grant would be 510.000.000for all private institutions in the state starting in 1961-62. (The allocation of these funds would be based upon certain amounts per degree granted each year and varying with the type of degree. For example the University would receive S2OOO for each medical and dental degree granted. SIOOO for each other doctoral degree. S3OO for each Master's degree, and SlOO for each Bachelor's degree). 4—That two-year community colleges be built near population centers to accommodate about 100.000 students by 1985. The report noted that 20<7-25'7 of the schools would be located within commuting distance of Albany. Buffalo. Rochester and Syracuse. s—Tha— t5 That all units of the State University charge a uniform 5303 tuition and fees. If the Heald Report is implemented (and it probably will be to a substantial degree) there is no doubt that it will have a major impact on the pattern of higher education in New York in general and on the University of Buffalo in particular. For example, the proposal, which states that one large multi-purpose university be located upstate, is of vital concern. It would be very difficult for the University to maintain its necessary large undergraduate body if one 4 —Buffalo Photo Evening News The classic grey limestone of Hayes Tower above ivycovered Kails has become a symbol of learning through the years, its giant bells ringing forth: "/ am the voice—l call you Come andLeant." — or more units of the State University, with a $300 tuition, were to be located at Buffalo State, or at Erie County Tech, or elsewhere in the region. This would mean that unless much greater private funds were made available than has been the case in the past there would not be sufficient funds for buildings andfacilities, attracting outstanding scholars to build an ever better faculty, or to even retain the present faculty. Some differences of opinion Late in January, almost six weeks after the Heald Rethe Board of Trustees of the State University revealed full details of its $585,000,000 ten year master plan for expanding higher education. Unlike the Heald Report it singled out Buffalo as one of the key expansion areas, and thefollowing differences were noted in recommendations: The Heald Committee recommended two graduate centers and the State University four. port was released, �— Photo UB Audio-Visual The contemporary brick and glass shaft of the two Tower residences are a sharp contrast to Hayes Hall. Ella Conger Goodyear Hall {on right) which is to be dedicated next month brings housing accommodations up to 1600. The State University felt that only two of the colleges of education could be converted immediately to liberal arts but the other nine could convert only in the junior and senior years at first. The Heald group asked for a speedier plan. "If these schools (elementary and secondary) are to be supplied with adequate teaching staffs," the trustees said, "the present facilities of the colleges of education must continue to be largely devoted to the education of teachers." However, all nine colleges of education would be able to accept graduates of the two-year colleges from the beginning under the trustees' plan. master plan The Trustees did not enter the field of aid to private colleges. The State University trustees, headed by Frank C. Moore of Buffalo, made these proposals: I. That one offour graduate centers be located in Buf- Trustees' falo. The plan neither specifies nor leaves out the possibility that the University of Buffalo be converted to a public institution. 2. That the College of Education at Buffalo be "immediately" expanded into a multi-purpose undergraduate school embracing liberal arts and sciences, as well as teachers education. (It would be thefirst of the two—the other would be Albany—of 11 such colleges to make the transition. The other nine would change to liberal arts only at the junior-senior level). 3. That Erie County Technical Institute, a two-year community college, consider the possibility of establishing branch facilities within the county under the supervision of its present Board of Trustees. The expansion cost for capital expenditures set at $585,000,000 includes $353,000,000 through 1965 and $232,000,000 for use by 1970, which breaks down this way: Colleges of education, $77,000,000; medical colleges, $5,500,000; four-year and professional colleges, $67,500,000; agricultural and technical institutes, $12,000,000; community colleges (state's share only), $70,000,000. In addition, the master plan estimates that instructional costs, including the expansion proposals, will increase from about $40,000,000 now to an estimated $155,747,000 by 1970. However, for this plan to become effective, the State Board of Regents and the Governor will have to approve it. Regents Chancellor John F. Brosman has indicated that the board has already begun consideration of the plan. Regents recommendations At the same time the Regents recommended to the Legislature a $32,000,000 program of state grants to undergraduate students in public and private colleges in the state, and a $8,400,000 graduate-aid program. If adopted, the programs would become effective this September for two-year and four-year colleges. Under the undergraduate program, grants of $200 per student would be handled on the same basis as the existing Regents' scholarship program and therefore, in the case of church-operated schools, presumably would not conflict with the State Constitution. Only students who were legal residents of the state would be eligible for the grants to be used solely for tuition. Graduate students would be eligible for tuition grants. After successful completion of a semester's work, they would apply for the "tuition awards" and a voucher would be issued by the state. ($4OO is suggested as the award to be paid to students up to the master's degree level, and for students in graduate work above the master's degree $800 is recommended). The public colleges which charge tuition would simply credit thevouchers to the amounts already allocated for each student, estimated at from $700 to $900 annually, and there would be no actual cash outlay. 5 �Broadening Educational Opportunities Continuedfrom page 3 Photo—Uß Audio-Visual These are the arched Georgian windows on the ground floor ofLockwood MemorialLibrary which is the center ofstudy and research at the University. The modern poetry collection which was founded by the late Director Emeritus Charles D. Abbott has become famous. (Dr. Abbott died Feb. 3—A tribute will appear in the April issue of the Bulletin.) But, Chancellor Furnas points out, "even with these tuition supplements, which would totalabout $1,500,000, the University could not survive as a private institution. The cost of educating each student is so high that closer to $5,000,000 per year would be needed in the near future. Cornell AeronauticalLaboratory has 1,000 engineers and technicians engaged in 176 projects supported by $15 million in contracts. Other than projects in aeronautics and related fields, CAL is now spending $300,000 annually for internal research. Westinghouse, Linde Company, a division of Union Carbide, Worthington, Sylvania, Bell Aircraft, Allied Chemical Corporation's National Aniline Division, Carborundum, Dupont, Spencer Kellogg—these and many others are investing heavily with time,talent and money to promote research activities. 'Upstate' site is Buffalo There are very good reasons why some people think that the University of Buffalo is being considered as the sice of the "upstate" university. The City of Buffalo is known as the keystone city of upstate. It is an area easily accessible, and in close proximity to, the entire upstate region, both in terms of time and distance. Six and onehalf million persons reside in upstate New York, and Buffalo is their largest city and the second largest in the State, ranking behind New York City. Here are to be found the majority of the hospitals, research laboratories, industries, commercial, financial and service organizations requiring skills, energies, and resources of the University-educated. These, in turn, contribute facilities for practical training, personnel for advisement, consultation, and part-time teaching, and laboratories for extension and reinforcement of research activities. Over 115 research laboratories are engaged in diversified work for the area and the nation. At Hooker Chemical Corporation, 200 people, housed in a new $3,500,000 building, are working on chemical and plastics research. 6 ÜB—a multi-purpose institution The University of Buffalo significantly aids research in the area with probing work being conducted in the humanities as well as physical, natural and health sciences. For example, in the field of nucleonics, the Western New York Nuclear Research Center, when it is completed in the spring, will be able to offer high intensity radiation for experimental purposes to local industries. In addition, by the nature of its fissionable fuel elements (uranium 235), itwill be able to produce thevaluableradioisotopes which have made important contributionsin the research, medicine, industry and agriculture. One of the applications for high intensity radiation is the destruction of living tissue, making it invaluable in medicine. Consequently, the new Center will work in conjunction with the internationally-known Roswell Park Continuedon page 17 �FOUNDATIONS AT STATE OPERATED UNIVERSITIES by Edgar B. Cale* "Although tax monies provide basis a for operations, outside funds are necessary to provide the in areas where state support may not be available/7 AMERICAN higher education is successfully to meet the demands of our society and fulfill its obligations to the youth of tomorrow, the best thinking, interest and support of all citizens are needed to devise new and more effective means of organization, operation, and financial support. Ways must be found to provide education for excellence and the means must be found to render this possible. Because much of our nation's future depends on the success of this endeavor, the problem is not the concern of a select few in state or federal government, nor is it the responsibility of a handful of wealthy individuals. The concern and the responsibility are everyone's. At this writing, officialsof the University ofBuffalo and the State University of New York are considering whether or not a merger is the most effective means of meeting the challenging demands of Upstate New York for a low-cost multi-purpose center of higher education. Also under advisement are the methods by which such a merger might be effected, particularly in terms of financial resources and physical plant *Dr. Cale is vice-chancellorfor planning and development. IF No one at this moment can predict the outcome of these discussions. However, it is strategic to emphasize that even if the University of Buffalo becomes a part of the state system, the cooperation and assistance of those manyconstituencies which have provided support for the University in its march of educational progress to date will still be vital, if true eminence is to be achieved. Many distinguished publicly-supported institutions in America enjoy well-merited support from business and industry, alumni, philanthropists, and foundations. For these institutions and their constituents, there are no clearly defined lines of public vs. private financial support. Although tax monies provide a basis for operations, outside funds are necessary to provide the "extras" in areas where state support may not be available. The duality of support necessary for the best-possible system of higher education is underscored in a statement of the American Council on Education. Pointing out that "the times call for a greater investment in higher education as a whole," the Council has stated: "Private institutions no less than public institutions are by their charters dedicated to the public service. Private institutions receive direct or indirect benefits from tax-supported programs of student aid; many receive state and federal grants for research and other purposes. Most public institutions have income from students'' fees and individual donations; many receive substantial contributionsfrom business and philanthropic foundations "The crucial issue is not how many dollars come from private sources and how manyfrom public sources, but whether or not the total of these dollars will be sufficient to meet the challenges colleges and universities face." Implementation of a non-profit, independent foundation to solicit, receive and administer funds from sources outside state . 7 �appropriations is a common feaiure of puHidy-sijpported universities throughout the United States. In man> cases, individual foundations have been established either within the framework or a puMich-supported institution or ancular> to it. 10 carefullycultivate private revenue sources for the public interest. A survey of these foundations reveals an interesting and often overlooked pattern of private support for public msrjrutions. and provides an insight into how such a pattern of continued private support might be organized and administered for tbe University of Buffalo as a member of the State University system. Private funds for routine support The oldest independent, but affiliated, foundation designed to aid a state institution through use of private resources is the Kansas University Endowment Association, incorporated in 1893. At that time, the Kansas State Constitution required all gifts to the University to be turned over to the State Treasurer by whose authority such assets were invested and the income used to pay University expenses. Thus, private support was not used topromote "over and above" and increase excellence, but went directly into routine support, relieving the Legislature of total dependence on tax funds to support the school. The Association, a non-profit educational corporation, was formed to receive funds and property, and to dispense such capital as its governing body considered necessary and appropriate for the good of the University. The governing body, or Board, is comprised of 50 trustees, all alumni, who are elected for life by the group itself. While, there are no regulations prohibiting election of nonalumni, this rarely occurs. The President of the University, the Governor of the State, the Chief Justiceof the State Supreme Court. and the President of the Alumni Association serve as ex-officio members of the Board. An executive committee of nine members, re-elected annually, directs the month by month activities of the Association. Members of this executive group include the four officers of the Association, four elected members and the President of the University. Actual administration of the Association is in the hands of an Executive Secretary and a staff of 15, including clerical assistants. The Association acts as a real estate agent for the University, constructs buildings (35 to date), operates a number of buildings, directs scholarship and student loan plans, and sponsors research. In Kansas City, for example, the Association leases an old medical building from the University for SI.OO per year, and sponsors a multi-million dollar research project on the Salk vaccine with the aid offunds from the National Institutes of Health. The Executive Secretary of the Association is one of six members of the University Planning Council, in addition to being a regular member ofat least fifteen other University committees. In operation, he states, it is difficult to distinguish the Association from any other division of the University. Only on paper, when the gifts are being received, is the distinction necessary. This policy of broad and substantial underpinning of University activities has been adopted by the Universities of Oklahoma and Nebraska which has established similar organizations. Foundation collects private monies A slightly different organizational pattern exists at Indiana University where a board of fifteen members—three selected by the University's Board of Trustees and thus representing state government, six elected by Alumni, five elected by the Foundation's 8 Board, and the President of the University—has power to own and receive property, collect funds, and conveyboth funds and property to the University at its discretion. The Indiana Foundation is administered by an Executive Director and a staff of ten. Located in the Indiana Union immediately adjacent to the Alumni Office, the organization directs alumni annual giving, and solicits foundations and industry. The Foundation has significantly aided the University by subsidizing salaries, furnishing classrooms and laboratories, and contributing toward cost of construction of certain facilities. Research at Indiana, is currently administered by the separate Indiana Research Foundation; however, legal arrangements are underway to consolidate the two. Similar to the Indiana Foundation in organization and operation is the University of lowa Foundation organized in 1957. For many years, the University of lowa operated entirely on funds appropriated by the State, although isolated private gifts to persons on the faculty and administrative staff were sometimes used for the University's ends. According to its Director, this Foundation is still in the formative stage. Alumni giving is currently being developed, and foundation and industrial solicitation encouraged. The lowa Foundation is presided over by an eleven man board including the University's President. Make-up of the board is national in scope, and members are elected by virtue of capability and interest. Ifany trustees of the University are on the board, they have been so placed because of these considerations, not because of administrative affiliation. Traces of the Indiana pattern may also be found at Ohio State University and at the Georgia Institute of Technology. At Ohio State, fund raising and private fund-handlingfor many activities are handled through the Alumni organization, under the administration of an official known as Executive Director of the Fund, who is also the Secretary of the Alumni Association. There exists a separate research foundation which solicits government funds for research. The Alumni Organization grants funds and property to the University in a manner similar to the Indiana Foundation. A comparable operation at Georgia Tech is distinguished by the its 24-man board is composed solely of alumni. Not even the President of the institution is a member. Purdue University enjoys the support of four independent foundations in addition to the Alumni Association which directs annual giving. Each is designed to assist the University with the use of privately solicited funds. The Purdue Research Foundation has as its objective sponsorshipof research and promotion of graduate work. Administered by a 12-member board, including the President and Treasurer of the University and 10 self-perpetuating members, this Foundation stimulates graduate work in areas other than technology and agriculture which are the essential interests of the University. The Ross-Ade Foundation is primarily interested in intercollegiate athletics and has underwritten construction of a new football stadium. Provisions of housing, principally for graduate students and faculty, is the purpose of the third organization, the Calumet Development Foundation, while the Purdue Aeronautics Corporation underwrites research and other activities in the Aeronautical School. Of the four Purdue foundations, the Research Foundation, established in 1930, is considered principal. Of 95 Ph.D. degrees granted by Purdue in 1959, 85 were received by individuals working on programs sponsored by this Foundation. fact that �Administrators handle funds A different, but familiar, approach is taken by some State Universities enjoying "constitutional status." Examples of these are the University of Michigan and Michigan State University which exist by authorization of the Constitution of the State of Michigan. Their Alumni and Development Offices solicit and collect funds similarly to private schools. The Agricultural and Mechanical College of Texas (Texas A & M) has, along with the University of Texas, constitutional status to solicit and receive private funds and property. Here again, the Development Office of the College handles fund-raising activities in a manner similar to privately supported schools. In addition, however, the Texas A & M Foundation, a small organization with current assets under $250,000, has been established, to provide for donors with objections to contributing directly to a state supported school. This Foundation is administered by a board of 5 trustees three elected by the alumni and two by the Board of Special Gifts and Bequests which is in turn composed of three administrative officials, three faculty members, and six members elected alumni. — The University of Minnesota also enjoys constitutional status, and solicits private support through several foundations. Considered most important are the Institute of Technology which solicits funds for research, sponsors graduate work and underwrites professorships, and the Medical Fundwhich solicits funds in a manner similar to the Annual Participating Fund for Medical Education at the University of Buffalo. The University of Houston, a privately-supported institution that recently concluded negotiations to "go state," took immediate action to create a Foundation to handle existing endowment and seek private funds in the future. Organized in July 1960, this organization is administered by a five-man board. At the moment it is not known whether any of the charter Board appointees will be named to the Board of the University when actual state-support becomes effective. "Over and above" support Funds of the Houston Foundation are to be used to augment faculty salaries, aid the library, provide equipment for classrooms and laboratories, endow scholarships and fellowships, finance pub- lications and underwrite cultural and scientific programsthat distinguish a university as a recognized seat of learning—operations "over and above" those for which state-support will be forthcoming, and specifically earmarked. In summary, then, the Board of Trustees of these foundations which encourage and administer complementary private funds for publicly-supported institutions of higher learning are not controlled by the respective states. Every effort seems to have been made to divorce control of the foundation from state control. If any group dominates membership on these boards it is the alumni. In some cases, the administrator in charge of foundation activities is also identified with University activities. Fund raising mechanisms similar to those existing in privately supported institutions appear at all of the Schools surveyed. Some, like Michigan and Kansas have extensive apparatus. Ohio State has an alumni giving-organization which would compare favorably with the giants of the Ivy League, Dartmouth, Princeton or Yale. That these foundations are indeed integral components of the fiscal structures of major publicly-supported institutions of higher learning throughout the nation is readily discernible from a review cf some recent figures concerning private support for state universities. During 1959, the University of Indiana received $352,880 in annual operating fund revenues from 6,600 alumni donors, an average gift of $53.47. The University of Virginia received an almost Like amount, $351,000, from 3,725, an average gift of $94.32. Alumni revenues received by Ohio State University totalled $321,000 with 26,261 donors contributing an average gift of $12.26. Other alumni contributions for annual operations received during the year by the Universities surveyed ranged from $250,000 from 12,834 donors at the University of Michigan, to $122,000 from 3,740 contributorsat the University of Minnesota. The University of Missouri received the highest average gift, $131.85. Ohio State University received a total annual fund gift from both alumni and non-alumni of $1,145,472 during 1959. At least six of the other schools surveyed, the Universities of Virginia, Nebraska, Minnesota, Indiana, and Michigan, and lowa State, received a total annual fund gift of more than a quarter of a million dollars. Other kinds of giving Alumni giving for purposes other than annual operating funds, including bequests, capital funds, gifts in kind, etc., amounted to more than one million dollars at each of six of the schools surveyed, ranging from $2,590,000 at the University of California (Berkeley) to $1,067,121 at the University of Virginia. Ten of the publicly-supported institutions surveyed reported total voluntary support for 1959 in excess of the $2,156,266 received during the year by the University of Buffalo. Amounts ranged from $22,822,967 at the University of California and $17,351,000 at the University of Michigan to $4,068,647 received by Rutgers, a former private institution now the publicly-supported State University of New Jersey. Reverting to the consideration that promptsthis entire discussion, it seems appropriate to refute here the proposition, that if the University of Buffalo becomes a state-supported institution, academic excellence will suffer. This is a total misconception. In fact, if we go State, academic excellence will be strengthened. The blueprint for expansion of higher education in the State calls for the establishment of two major universities "designed to stand among the finest in the nation." The University of Buffalo as part ofthis design would be destined to grow and advance in stature and services. To quote again from the American Council of Education, "The nature of the differences amongkinds of institutions can be and has been misrepresented. For example, it is simply not true to say that large institutions inevitably ignore the importance of the individual student; that small institutions necessarily represent quality; that private institutions are for the sons of the rich; that institutional expenditures for good education are any less in a public institution than in a private one; that one kind of American institution is socialistic, the other n0t..." Private and public funds needed It is a paralleled misconception to hold that public support relieves necessity or obligation for private gifts. Our society must provide opportunities through post-high school education for the maximum development of people with many kinds and degrees of talent. As is evident from our survey, "in terms offinancial support, no institution is strictly private or strictly public." There is obligation for the state, of course. But there also exists for individuals with understanding and means the obligation to offer that additional support which provides the "extras" that make an excellent institution of a good one. And excellence must be ourgoal. the 9 �Second in a series devoted to recognizing achievements ofAlumni The First Western Hero, The Lone by his silver Fran the creator, is: Striker, bullets. Ranger, is known A FAMOUS ALUMNUS SILVER, the call of thefamous masked rider to his white steed, is familiar to persons of all ages in the United States and ten foreign countries where radio and TV series are broadcast. "The Lone Ranger" has become a moral example as well as an entertainer and during its long career has won more than HI-YO, 100awards. And its series originator, Fran Striker of nearby Arcade, is familiar to many alumni—for he is in fact an alumnus of our University. A native Buffalonian, Fran received all of his formal education here, having enrolled for two years in the college of arts and sciences and one year in business. He left school in 1926 to become a radio announcer at WEBR. From that time he has been pounding a typewriter, writing all kinds of radio plays, books, film scripts and articles. His big break camein 1931 when the director of WXYZ, a small independent station in Detroit, hired him to write a series called the "Manhunters," which ran six days a week for a half-hour. Several months later, the director wrote a memo to Fran which initiated plans for thefamous masked rider: "Will you please write up three or four wildwest thrillers using as the central figure a lone ranger including all the hokum of the masked rider, rustlers, killer pete, heroine on train tracks, fight on top of box cars, Indian bad men, two-gun bank robbers, etc. I have an idea that this type of thing might command a large audience among the fourteen and fifteen year-old kids, and if they are successful we might alternate themwith the Manhunters." The rest is a matter of history, for "The Long Ranger" became the idol of millions of teenagers and oldsters alike. It's interesting to note, though, that Fran did not 10 think the program would be very successful. The hard facts are that in the beginning he was receiving twelve dollars a week for three half-hour programs. Paper and postage cut out a quarter of that. In short, the Ranger did not look likemuch of a career financially. The part-owner of the radio station was sure that the Ranger had a following, and told Fran a sponsor could help boost his salary. To survey the audience, it was announced that a toy gun would be given to the first three hundred people who sent in a card or letter. That announcement was made on a Tuesday. On Thursday, the Lone Ranger said frankly that the guns were already exhausted. On Saturday he had to beg the audience not to write in. When theavalanche of mail was counted, there were 24,905 fan letters. A sponsor was not difficult to find, and Fran moved to Detroit to write exclusively for the station. That position lasted twentyfive years. Besides the Long Ranger, Fran has written other radio serials: "The Green Hornet;" "Thrills of the Secret Service;" "Ned Jordan, Secret Agent;" and shared in the creation of "Sergeant Preston of theYukon." He edited the script for two Lone Ranger serials and one feature film produced by Republic Pictures, and wrote the story for "The Green Hornet" movie. He has written 18 juvenile books of 50,000 words for Grosset and Dunlap's Lone Ranger series, 8 juvenile books of 50,000 words for Grosset and Dunlap's Tom Quest series, one adult Lone Ranger novel of 75,000 words for G. P. Putnam and Sons, the Lone Ranger cartoon for 25-years distributed by King Features Syndicate, and television scripts for "Lone Ranger," "Sergeant Preston of the Yukon," and "Lassie." �HANS S. FALCK* discusses: from ARARAT to IN A WORLD in which the unusual has become the commonplace it is nonetheless noteworthy that one of the proudest of American achievements has been the large scale integration of minority groups into the American social structure. From Ararat lo Suburbia by Selig Adlerand Thomas E. Connolly is the account of the development of the Jewish community of Buffalo from the early days of the Nineteenth century Niagara Frontier to the middle fifties of the present century. Dr. Selig Adleris, of course, the distinguished historian and Samuel P. Capen Professor of American History at the University of Buffalo, the author of manyarticles and a previous book The Isolationist Impulse: Its TwentiethCentury Reaction (Abelard-Schuman 1957). Perhaps not as generally known is the fact that Dr. Adler is also considered an authority on American Jewish history and has lectured before many groups throughout the United States on Jewish subjects. Dr. Thomas E. Connolly is Associate Professor of English at the University and the author of several arti*Dr. Falck is associate professor, The School of Social Work. Suburbia cles. He isalso the editor of James Joyce's Scribbledehobble recently published by the Northwestern University Press. How has the Jewish community in this area developed? What are its landmarks? What were its beginnings and how can one best describe it now? Professors Adler and Connolly deal with these questions throughout their four-hundred page volume. But, by way of illustration and contrast it might be well to explain the title of the book From Ararat to Suburbia. According to biblical account, Ararat was the name of the mountain on which Noah landed after the deluge which was brought on by God in punishment of mankind. But Ararat in the context of Professor Adler's and Connolly's book refers to another Noah, namely Mordecai Manuel Noah who envisioned the establishment of a major Jewish community on Grand Island, a few miles from Buffalo on the Niagara River. On September 15, 1825 Mr. Noah engaged in a ceremony of dedication of the island and a foundation stone was duly hewn on which was inscribed in Hebrew Text the translation: {continued on next twopages) 11 �from ARARAT to Suburbi -an account of the Hear O Israel, the Lord Our God, the Lord is One ARARAT A City ofRefuge for the Jews Founded by Mordecai Manuel Noah in the month of Tizri, 5586 (Hebrew calendration) Sept. 1825 & in the 50th year of American Independence. The stone can still be viewed, as it is in the possession of the Buffalo Historical Society. An amusing sidelight is related by theauthors in connection with the dedication. It could not take place on Grand Island at all because it was too difficult to cross the Niagara River and so the dedication ceremony was held with much public attention and celebration at Saint Paul's Episcopal Church in Buffalo. However, in the confusion someone had forgotten to notify several hundred persons waiting for the ceremonies opposite Grand Island on the Buffalo side of the river of the change of place! Although a few Jews lived in Buffalo before 1825 one may say that this event marks the first major occurrence in the life of the Buffalo Jewish community. While significant, it would, however, be a mistake to treat Noah's visionary plans as the mere unrealism of one man. As a matter of fact, the very inscription on the stone related this event to many centuries of previous Jewish history as indeed it links it to the present. For the inscription refers to Noah's plan to found "ACity of Refuge for the Jews." Many American cities have, of course, become cities of refuge and not only for Jews, as the history of the city of Buffalo again amply demonstrates. And so, it might be said with some justification that From Ararat to Suburbia reveals an underlying theme, that theme being the development of a minority group in the city of Buffalo within the context of the American experience. At various points of that development the aim of Jews was survival. After the mass immigrations of 1870-1920it was "transformed" into acculturation to the more general American society. In its 20th century manifestations the aim of the Jews is integration with it as well as the maintenance of a creative Jewish identity of which both the general society as well as the Jewish group are to be beneficiaries. Illustrative of the most recent stage of this process of the development of the Jewish group in this area, is the move of the Jewish population to the suburbs. The total Jewish population of Erie County as of 1960has been estimated to be 25,000 persons, or approximately 7,600 families. In 1955, when the total number of families was about 7800, 5900 families lived in the city of Buffalo proper, while 1940 lived in the suburban areas. In 1960 the approximate estimates supplied by the United Jewish Federation of Buffalo and Erie County were that 4800 families lived in the city of Buffalo, while 2800 families lived in the suburban areas. 12 These two major events, Ararat and Suburbia, mark the beginning and the end of a remarkably vivid account of a small sub-community making up about two and one half per cent of the total population of this area. The Jewishpopulation of Buffalo stems from two major European sources, Western Europe, particularly southern Germany, and Eastern Europe, particularly Poland and Czarist Russia. Although from the middle of the last century until the 1920'sJews came to the United States from both centers simultaneously, the major waves of Eastern European Jewish immigration took place from the 1870's to the 1920's while their German brethren tended to immigrate somewhat earlier, during the middle of the nineteenth century. There were two more immigration "waves" after 1920, although not nearly as large. They consisted of German-Jewish refugees from Hitler in the 1930's and of concentration camp survivors stemming from both East and West, after World War 11. Numerically, these groups could not compare to the millions of European Jews who fled in vast numbers the religious and racial oppressions that marked the nineteenth century. More restrictive U. S. immigration policies since 1920 account for part of this. It is to the credit of theauthors that they have written a lively narrative which is permeated by a sense of movement. There is a feeling of progression, of dynamism in the narrative which is never lost and stands out with particular clarity in the first half of the book. We are taken step by step through the ever changing occupational structure of the Jewish community, starting with those business activities which required no, or verylittle, capital investment (peddling) and very gradually developing into modest business ventures of ownership. Many Jewish people who came to Buffalo in the second half of the last century eventually went into the soft goods and textile business. While a few became outstanding and well-to-do business people, most earned just enough to keep their families fed and clothed and moderately housed. Not until a generation or two later were the children and grandchildren in the position of improving upon parents in their occupational activity. Thus, they were able to climb the American success ladder through college education and through a rise in the occupational prestige ladder. The book makes clear the processes through which such standing was achieved. It was literally true that second and third generation Americans built on the hardship, suffering and sweat of their refugee forefathers who came to America with nothing but the clothes on their backs. It is an inspiring and impressive story in the truest tradition of American middle class life. Additionally, certain other themes emerge from the book. They are the devotion to family, the tenacity with which the succeeding generations held on to their religion (continued on next page) �development of the Jewish Community in Buffalo (although much change took place in religious thought and expression), and the highly sustained willingness to give to charity. Thus over the years there developed a system of social services that speaks well of people who themselves often were in need of financial help. A con- comitant theme is the commitment to Jewish education as a vital force towards the survival of an American Jewish community. Especially since the turn of the present century, as the book points out, the University of Buffalo has contributed its share of outstanding citizens from among the sons and daughters of Jewish immigrants. A number of its graduates became outstanding citizens in the Jewish and general community. The School of Law, the School of Education, the School of Social Work, the School of Medicine and the College of Arts and Sciences trained many fine minds.And one of the most important reasons, the authors observe, is that all through the tenure of Chancellor Samuel P. Capen and his successors there has never been discrimination against any minorities. Moreover, the significance of college education for the children of immigrants, especially for those from Eastern Europe, goes beyond thefact that it is available without discrimination. Perhaps a deeper meaning is to be found in the secular nature of this education. The Jewishpeople has been known as "the people of the book." For centuries learning has been held in highest esteem. Nonetheless, especially in Eastern Europe whence most Jewish immigrants came, much of this interest and love was expressed primarily—though not exclusively—in religious scholarship. Not until their American experience did most Eastern European Jews make any significant contact with Western secular culture. But this brought with it some serious problems and tended, in some degree at least, to create intellectual and spiritual cleavages between the generations, old and young. Today, with eighty per cent of American Jews native-born this is no longer the case, and there is some evidence of a new synthesis between secularism and religion. A new rapprochement seems to be emerging which makes it possible for the modern Jew to be both, a secular twentieth century American and a self-respecting, informed Jew. Of particular interest in this connection is the careful tracing of Jewish religious institutional life undertaken by the authors. Indeed, many of the adjustmental problems of a sub-cultural group such as the Jewish group in the last and present century, emerge when one reviews, as Dr. Adler and Dr. Connolly have done, the development of temples and synagogues. Aside from changes in the circumstances of theAmerican Jew which resulted in the gradual evolution of at least two major national religious movements (Reform and Conservative Judaism) in addition to Orthodox Judaism, there was something typically American about this development. In Buffalo as elsewhere these changes took place, partially at least, as a result of the willingness of religious institutions and their lay leaderships to assume responsibility for the reinterpretation of traditional practice and thought. This is a democratic act. Thus we read in detailhow thevarious temples and synagogues came into being, why they are what they are today, and how they function. Outstanding is the fact that, whateverwas changed or retained inrelation to the Jewish tradition, the decisions were made by the congregations themselves. They agreed or disagreed with the views of their rabbis over the generations, but in almost every case, the final decisions were those of the congregations. Thus, the conflicts that beset many, if not all of the Jewish religious institutions in Buffalo, are more than just that. They emerge, when seen in some historical perspective, as part of the democratic process which encourages diversity of thought, which is never easy when truly engaged in, but which is the price that must be paid for religious progress and for the exercise of the right to self-determination inreligion as elsewhere. What has been said here applies also to the development of social services in the Jewish community of Buffalo. The transition from self-help to professional social work represents once again much trial and experimentation. The early days of the Buffalo Jewish community saw the emergence of charitable organizations formed by immigrants coming from the same district or sometimes cities and towns. These served admirably in their time. With the changes in the community and in the whole general tenor of American life, the need gradually arose to treat social problems on a more communitywide and coordinated basis. With this development, there emerged the community-wide social agencies under Jewish auspices and under professional guidance. For a people accustomed to help each other in response to human sympathy and religious precept, such formalization and institutionalizationseemed cold and remote and too impersonal. And yet, the transition to the professional Jewish social agency was made, and one might say in retrospect, this was for the good. Yet, for at least some people the old order gave more personal satisfaction to the giver and it seems understandable that he relinquished direct giving and personal charity with some reluctance. An outstanding quality of thiswork is in thefact that it discusses human beings as well as abstract thoughts and ideas. Professors Adlerand Connolly identify well over nine-hundred names (by actual count), most of which are those of persons who resided hereand manyof whom still reside in the Buffalo area. The annotation reveals that in practically every case documentation was used. This is cited as illustrative of the painstaking and carefulresearch (continued on page 16) that underlies this work. 13 �Photo—Uß Audio-Visual The Council Seated 1. to r.: Harris N.

George F. Goodyear Secretary of the Council Dated, January 2, 1961 15 �in crucial SPORTS FOOTBALL BULLS closed the longest and toughest grid card in Blue and White history with a season-record of 4-6-0. While this marks the first losing season for head coach Dick Offenhamer, it also places some of the most colorful and challenging game statistics between the record covers and puts a bold, forthright challenge before alumni and friends. Capping the first season in which the Bulls have encountered four major-power THE clubs were the honors bestowed upon the team captain and quarterback, Gordon Bukaty. Named to the All-Eastern Collegiate Athletic Conference Team of Nov. 12th for his generalship in the Gettysburg game. "Buckets" also captured honorable mention status on the All-East team of the Associated Press at season's end. As the Bulls" leader in total offense. Bukaty rushed for 111 yards, passed for 746 yards, totaling 857 yards. In three Varsity years and 28 games, Gordie'srecord reads: 153 279 Pass 675 529 543 1950 2493 (.3 mile) (1.1 miles) (1.4 miles) Rush 1958 1959 1960 111 746 stages. The game record is as follows: Total Yards 828 808 857 He has led the Bulls in 20 victories, eight defeatsand no ties. Bukaty"s defensive performances at his comerpost attracted the attention of several pro teams, particularly the Hamilton Tigercats of Hamilton. Ont. His final appearance as a collegian came in Erie, Pa. on Thanksgiving morning where he participated in the Third Annual Gem Bowl classic which pits the Eastern Allstars against the best of the West. Midway through the second quarter he came off the bench, as a substitute, to lead the East to the series' most thrilling victory and a 2-1 lead in the bowl event. Statistically,he completed 10 of 18 passes for 130 yards and compiled a total of 93 yards in 9 carries. Two passes and a sneak accounted for three TDs as the East triumphed 27-26. Key performances in this annual grid clash were also turned in by end Carley Keats, guard Joe Shifflet and center Chuck Scott. Keats hauled in passes of 14 and 17 yards to set up two scores while Shifflet threw key blocks and led the defensive forces.

In 1958 and 1959 the Bulls finished first and second, respectively, in the race for the Lambert Cup, symbol of the Eastern small- college championship. This year the team faced four majorcollege opponents. One more major opponent in those ten games would have placed the Bulls in the major-power class by reason of opposition. Pausing for breath at this writing, the athletic officials face many problems, least of which is the scheduling operation. Likewise, many alumni and fans facea much more important decision. Where do we go from here? Obviously, the answer is: We go on! How do we go on? Obviously, 16 . .. Photos—Uß Audio-Visual GORDIE BUKATY, hero of many a University of Buffalo victory in the last three years, is weighing two pro football offers—one from the Buffalo Bills of the American Football League, and another from the Hamilton Tiger Cats of the Canadian Big Four. He says, "I'd like to give pro ball a try," but adds he will probably not make a decision until Spring. CLUBS GAB OPEN MEETING of the General Alumni Board was held December 7, at the Saturn Club for the purpose of making plans for the fifth annual June Weekend. Alumni leaders in attendance were: Jim Ailinger, DDS'2S; Ed Andrews, BS(Bus)'49; Ann Ross, BA'sl; Owen Augspurger, LLB AN out at center. Buffalo's season standing could well be described as determined by the odd bounce of the football with the VMI, Colgate and Connecticut games hinging onone key play the answer is: It's up to you! For more years than we care to recall the North-Main rallying cry was, "Give us good football and we'll back it." Well, 1960fans saw good football and they backed it as never before. A total of 57,112 fans witnessed the home contests and 42,400 attended the away games. Five home games set a new presentday record for ÜB. Next year the Bulls have carded nine games: Sept. 16, Gettysburg, Home; Sept. 23, Boston University, Away; Sept. 30, Delaware, Away; Oct. 7, Holy Cross, Home; Oct. 14, Villanova, Away; Oct. 21, Temple, Home; Oct. 28, Connecticut, Away; Nov. 4, Bucknell, Home; Nov. 11, Virginia Military Institute (VMI), Home. Truly, this is the most rugged and balanced schedule, over-all, that has ever confronted a UB eleven. The cost of bringing in the calibre of teams to be faced is monumental compared to the cost encountered just a few short years ago. Therefore, now is the time for the alumni and friends of the University to showthey mean business. Paid season tickets now number 2,000 with more revenue paid in than ever before from this one source. 4,000 are needed The plain, cold fact is for 1961. Football-wise, there could be some surprises in store for the 1961 fan. The task has been painted as overpowering. Wishing never won a football game. You can be sure that the coaching staff is already at work with plans for the 1961 campaign. Have you made your plans? It's not too soon to indicate your desire to see the Bulls meet the 1961 opponents which are teams representative of the size and stature of our University.

Morley Townsend, chairman of Alumni Weekend, 1961 made the following recommendations which were approved by the group: Weekend activities should be centered on the campus, the dinner to be held in Norton Union, Friday, June 9—the dance to be held either in the Tower or Norton, June 10. The dance this year will be a part of the Alumni committee, instead of the Alumnae Association and will feature a good orchestra. The Tunk for new alumni (the 1961 graduating class) will be held again behind Hayes Tower. It was felt that the location is an ideal one. This year for the first time reunions will be held during this weekend for the following classes: 1911, 1936 and 1951. It is hoped that this addition to the Weekend will be a successful endeavor and help increase the number in attendance at the various events. Attending from the University were: Dr. Bradley Chapin, dean of University College, and Mrs. Chapin; Janice N. Mogavero, BA'5B, assistant Director of Alumni Relations, and Mr. Mogavero; and Edmund D. Stevens, Jr., BS(Bus)*47, vice president for Associations and Clubs, General Alumni Board, and Carol Argus Stevens, BA'47.

FROM ARARAT To Suburbia (continued from page II) As a lay reader, that is as a non-historian, one must rely upon the decisions arrived at by scholars as to what such a work should include and what it should omit. A variety of scholars can therefore be expected to arrive at different judgments onso complex a subject as the one treated in this book. This, one might suspect, is in the nature of history writing. Yet, this reader would predict withsome degree of confidence that for its readability, for its style, its meticulous thoroughness, for its clarity and balance in letting the data speak for themselves, the book will be known as one of the finest of its kind by two eminent University of Buffalo scholars. �Broadening Educational Opportunities Continued from page 4 Memorial Institute on cancer research. Moreover, research on campus will be greatly extended in the fields of chemistry, biology, medicine and engineering through the addition of the new facility. When research is being carried on extensively, libraries must be close at hand. Metropolitan Buffalo is served by forty-nine libraries, including the Erie County Public Library (1,324,799 volumes) and the GrosvenorReference Library (493,390). At the University, the Libraries comprise five major units: four of them on the main campus; the other in downtown Buffalo at the Law School. The total collection numbers approximately 350,000 volumes. Lockwood Memorial Library, center of the system, contains more than 200,000 volumes on a wide variety of subjects. In addition to research and library services, the University offers to the State a fully-equipped modern multipurpose institution with an extensive physical plant, a beautiful urban campus with room for expansion, a moderate endowment, and a professionally competent faculty and administrative staff. Furthermore, it can offer a greater intangible asset: a University family dedicated to the concepts of academic freedom. It is clear that the heritage and duty of the University of Buffalo is to provide the best possible higher education for its constituency, particularly in Western New York. With the changing pattern it is necessary to explore all possible ways to acquire thefinancial support not only to maintain but to improve our stature. In so far as we have a choice we must endeavor to select the wisest course. Remaining a private institution Realizing this obligation the University Council, at its meeting on November 28, 1960,appointed a special committee to study all the alternatives and possibilities of developing the bestfuture program for the University. There appear to be but two choices: Remain private and urge all alumni and friends to do even more in the future for the University, or consider becoming part of the state program. We hesitate to blow our own horn, but maybe you've noticed it too. At the recent American Alumni Council District 11 Conference in Atlantic City the Bulletinreceived an honor. Time-Life Publications' annually presents an achievement award for the most improvement in alumni magazines. Our own University of Buffalo Alumni Bulletin was among the five runner-ups in the contest this year. Naturally we're proud and hope you are also. Please write and give us any suggestions you might have to help us in the future. To remain private would mean that the University would have to expand and be developed even more that it has in the past. The Chancellor has indicated that four principal steps would have to be taken: I—Expand dormitory capacity from the present 1600 to 5000. "This would attract students and enable us to maintain our undergraduate enrollment at a workable level. In addition, a number of apartment residences should be constructed for married students and new instructors." 2—Obtain capital funds of at least $50,000,000. Half of this, he said, would beallocated to new construction of academic buildings and $25,000,000 would go to endowment. "A portion of the amount might go to immediate strengthening of some of our academic areas." 3—Acquire additional land for such a building program. 4—Get contributions from alumni, participating funds, industry, etc. for operating deficits in excess of $1,000,000 a year. However, the Chancellor further notes: "This program would have to be developed as quickly as possible. But even with major efforts on the part of all concerned, it would probably require ten years." He also points out that for the University to "perform its task properly, still other support would be required." Such other support includes grants from the state for operating purposes, as recommended by the Heald Report; federal aid; and increased giving from majorfoun- dations. The Heald Report suggests that the subsidy formula be "an aggregate payment not in excess of 10 per cent of teaching expenditures." Itfurther adds that "the program could be started in 1961-62ifdesired with an expenditure of $10 million (which is approximately 6 per cent of teaching expenditures in private colleges and universities)." But, the Chancellor adds, "the support recommended by the Report, to date, would not be sufficient to be of material help in the University. While it is true that small liberal arts colleges like Colgate would benefit from such support, the University's greatest cost is its graduate students, especially in medical school. The grant would have to be several times greater than that currently proposed for our needs to be met. As a matter of policy the State University is unalterably opposed to extending the contract-college pattern which is being used to support four of the colleges at Cornell University. Hence, this does not appear to be a hopeful solution." Becoming a state university On the other side of the coin are the advantages of becoming the "Upstate" State University of New York, among them: 1. The University would be supported primarily but not exclusively by the state. Of course gifts from industry, friends, and alumni need to be continued. A state univerContinuedon back cover 19 �Broadening Educational Opportunities Continuedfrom page 17 sity here just likethe great state universities of Michigan, Indiana, and California, would need additional funds to enrich its programs or to do those things which the state is unable to do, but which are needed. Essentially, however, the burden ofmaking ends meet would be materially solved. 2. Another advantage is that more and more students of this area would be able to obtain higher education from an outstanding institution with a long tradition of scholarly activity, at a low cost. 3. Academic standards might rise even higher than at present. This would be especially true if other area colleges were to become liberal arts schools and the University were to place major emphasis on graduate studies. Council favors "going state" Two days after the State University master-plan was released, a special meeting of the Council was called and the president of the State University, Dr. Thomas H. Hamilton, discussed in detail the problems to befaced in the proposed merger of the University with the state. By unanimousaction of the Council, the recommendation of an interim committee headed by Lewis G. Harriman, was approved, "to negotiate with the leaders of the State University of New York on the possibility and with the intention, that the university become a part of that system, if the necessary arrangements can be resolved to the satisfaction of both the State University of New York and the University Council." The resolution provided that the mutuality of agreement must include these provisions: "I—To protect the University of Buffalo's program of maintaining and improving its status as an institution of higher learning of the first rank. "2—To attract and retain students, teachers and other personnel necessary to maintain such a program. "3—To maintain the University of Buffalo as an outstanding contribution to the welfare and prestige of the community which it currently serves." During the Council session, Dr. Hamilton answered many questions as to the way inwhich the university and its 14 professional schools and divisions would operate as part of the state system. Some of these were directed to the status of faculty members. It was explained that these would not be subject to civil service, and could retain their present relationships to the university.

DoubUng of Regents' scholarships from 5% of the 1961 high-school graduatingclass to 10%,adding nursing scholarships and merging the special engineering scholarship program with that of the Regents. 3. Establishment of two comprehensive graduate centers, one at Stony Brook, L.1., and the other upstate at the cost of $4,500,000 for the fiscal year. Other provisions include: Expansion of the student loan program, request of voter approval for dormitory bonds; broadening liberal arts in colleges of education; continued development of the two-year colleges, comprehensive plan for the use of televisionin higher education, fuller use of facilities in state colleges and universities through tri-semester plan or four quarter system, development of a plan to dealwith the problems of medicaleducation and improved management in public and private colleges. Decision still pending The recommendation affecting the University directly is that dealing with the establishment of the two graduate centers. Pending negotiations, we may become the "upstate" University. There is strong support for the conversion. However, to date, the complicated legal and financial questions relating to endowments and similar matters still have to be explored. Both the State and the University have recognized that there is an urgency to get the matter settled, so that should the University remain private it can continue to solicit the funds it needs for operations and development, or if it becomes public the necessary action can be taken by the State trustees, the Board of Regents and the Legislature. (These are the facts, as the Bulletin goes to press. Any other decisions which are madewill be carried in the AprilBulletin). The University of Buffalo completes 115 years as a privately-controlled institution May 11. It had its beginnings in 1846, when Buffalo was only fourteen years old and had a population of 28,000. Over the years the University has maintained a sure, steady rate of growth. Today there are thirty buildings, ranging from residence halls to a nuclearreactor. The book value of land, buildings and equipment was $31,176,855 last June 30. The enrollment of the first class in the Medical School in 1847 was 72, of whom 17 were graduated that year. Last June's graduating class numbered 865. The current enrollment is 12,592, ofwhom 7,494 are regular full-time day students. More than 1500 of these live in residence halls on the campus. It's clear that the University has touched the life of nearly every citizen of Buffalo as evidenced in the excerpts from the Chancellor's Report (see page 1). Whatever the future holds, the University will continue to K'oaden its educational opportunities for the profit of BLVD 20 � Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Siggelkow* compares UB students with college youths to see how they differ or are similar. X HE biggest pressure students face is getting through the exams with better than a C. You've got to do well if you plan to go to graduate school, orfor that matter even get a decent job. \_/nb of the greatest experiences in college is gained by students in residence who are free from home ties. Students need to be with other students. That's hard to achieve if you live fifteen minutes awayfrom the campus. " Dr. Siggelkow is dean of students and associate professor of education. Students yearn for independence. They feel a need to exercise a certain amount of freedom which the college years provide. But we're more conservative than our elders were. You don't see us waving the college banner. �WHAT ARE STUDENTS REALLY LIKE We tend to feel we're in on isolated atmosphere, and most of our time is devoted to finding ourselves. We just don't see national and international problems became they don't concern us directly. .. JTarents don't understand our anxieties. When they ask us how we're getting along we say college is exciting, stimulating, wonderful. Inwardly wefeel lost and are concerned whether we're going to make it or not. A students work and this seems ofextra-curricular activities. Butthose who want to, manage to study, participate in activities, join a fraternity, and get it all done quite well." lot of UB to take the place (continued on next paffe) 3 �IVIost UB students are apathetic towards national issues. For example there were no sit-downs here. But we'renot only the ones. America is apathetic. Our whole generation has hadit pretty nice, we've always been so secure. abe the characteristics of students today at the University of Buffalo? Do they have the same interests, conflicts, likes and dislikes we had when we were in college? Over three million students presently attend college in the United States. As of now, more than a third of all college youth of college age are in some institution of higher learning. In a very few years, thatwill be true of more than one-half. Size alone enormously complicates administrative problems. The 1960-61 freshman class (2200) represents one of the largest in UB history and 1961-62 estimates portend even greater numbers. Such rapidly increasing What enrollments make class sectioning and the individualization of instruction more difficult. Rising instructional costs and staff shortages compound old difficulties and create new ones. A larger and more heterogeneous student body brings new problems in advisement and counseling, residence housing, discipline and student activities. W. MaxWise, in a 1958 publication, "They Comefor the Best of Reasons," suggests that today's college students differ from their predecessors in ways that affect their responses to college, teaching, and curriculum, with even more substantial changes in the offing. It is pertinent to compare UB students with the nation's college youths to see how they differ or are similar. One current popular impression of a college student places him between 18-21 years of age and catalogues him as a late adolescent to whom college is chiefly a social activity, immersing him so completely in college life that outside influences of the home, the community, and the world at large are excluded. Many believe"his intellectual interests are slight and he is a rather dull, conforming creature without any real spark of enthusiasm or originality." Some students on every campus fit this description but Wise correctly points out erroneous aspects of this stereotype. For example, only 55 per cent of all college students in the country are in the 18-21 range, and Wise believes the "Joe College" type of yesterday exists no more. There is actually no "typical freshman," simply because each individual is different. 4 1J ut during the recent election there was a great deal of interest on the campus. It seems if our students are directly affected, then they're not apathetic—like the ROTC question. A lot of students were up in arms about that.'* ' The University of Buffalo is still influenced today by itsorigins as an urban institution, although the residence hall program has grown rapidly during the past six years. Such housing now accounts for about 1600 men and women, approximately one-fourth of the present day-time undergraduate student population. The full impact on UB of residence hall students with differing outlooks and backgrounds is still too recent to evaluate properly. Life outside the university itself has always been highly important to the commuting student who quite naturally retained close home and community ties, a factor that precluded much intimate contact with collegiate life and activities. Student Population Patterns For the turn-of-the-century student, college training opened the way to an elite world in which graduate? were more likely to become members of a superior class, and the emphasis was largely non-vocational. Although documentary evidence is still lacking, many observers note that during the past two decades a progressively larger proportion of students has been coming from "working class" homes and more than half of all students now in four year institutions are from lowermiddle and lower-income groups, says Wise. The strength of the UB student body results from its heterogeneity over the years. The student population pattern reflected an already varied racial, social, economic, and religious make-up representative of the city of Buffalo. Former Dean of Students Edward S. Jones followed up graduates of 15-25 years ago, publishing his findings in 1956. In discussing the background of former UB students he observed that "21 per cent of the graduates had parents either one of whom had attended college. In 38 per cent of the cases neither parent had gone beyond the grades. The other 41 per cent had one or both parents with some high school education." Different socio-economic and cultural groups have always attended ÜB, a distinct reflection of the University's ability to provide an opportunity for higher education to all segments of the population represented in the area. �Part-Time Employment — Quotation* by these students see Pg. SS A married undergraduate on any university campus before World War II was a rarity, often meriting a feature story in the local press. Yet, by 1957, 22 per cent of all full-time college students in the United States were married, 17 per cent of the men, four per cent of the women, Wise notes. Close to 13per cent of UB fulltime day-students—including Law, Medicine and Dentistry—are married. Married undergraduate full-time day students at UB with children have also increased from four per cent in 1952-3 to six per cent in 1959-60. UB authorities are seriously beginning to refer to the possibility of providing married student housing, already a reality on many other college campuses. Current Emphasis on Vocational Goals Life plans of today's college youth place strong emphasis on security and immediatevocational goals. Thus Wise concludes, Students will give considerable time and thought to the kind of training best suited to reach their occupational objective. University of Buffalo students are no exception to this, primarily because of the emphasis on strong academic records to gain acceptance into the professional school of their ultimate choice. Jones explains that "a privately endowed urban university, of rather recent development, is particularly likely to attract people who are vocationally minded nearly 90 per cent of the students entering the University of Buffalo place vocational advancement as the chief reason for college." The "new" vocational emphasis recently pointed up by researchers has always been normal at the University of Buffalo, an institution that evolved from distinct and separate schools designed to train candidatesfor specific professional areas. Current vocational interests are also reflected by the increasing number of student requests for counseling. During 1959-60 over 800 students, approximately onehalf of whom were self-referred, contacted the newly established Student Counseling Center for assistance in personal, academic, and vocational problems. .. "The proportion of students earning more than half of their college expenses has probably risen from about 20 per cent in the pre-World War II period to about 40 per cent today," explains Wise. The University of Buffalo Placement Office conducted a survey of 3000 students in February, 1960. Approximately one-third reported that they worked part-time while attending school, men averaging 14 hours per week, women 11. Another survey, covering a high percentage of the total freshman class this fall, included responses from 986 male and 449 female students. Sixty-eight per cent reported that they either had a job or were interested in part-time employment, although only 21 per cent actually had a part-time job. Seventy-two per cent worked during the previous summer. Community Ties Wise notes a tendency among modern college students to dress more like off-campus citizens, no longer seeing themselves as a separate group or different from the rest of society. Social activities and attitudes have taken on a new aspect in that college students "retain closer ties with their families and home communities, viewing the college less than formerly as a principal focus of attention and loyalty." The UB student—with the possible exception of residence hall groups—has always maintained his community ties. Sometimes such ties may be too close, if {continued on page 27).

MILLER* discusses: of women, certain challenges lead to frustration or bewilderment. The entire history of the higher education of women clearly shows that women have been torn between goals, tormented and confused as to the right road to travel. Young women of high school and college age are haunted by thoughts of what their destiny shall be. They intuitively dream—and rightly so—of being the heart of a family circle: yet. they wonder whether, once in the circle, they might wish to escape it. They dream of a successful career, of making excellent and even profound use of their intellectual and professional capacities: yet they wonder if.by so doing, they may be sacrificme love, marriage and motherhood. While this conflict is very basic, our present day society is making the problem easier to solve—at least if the girls know the fatts. To suggest any longer that modern woman's place is exclusively in the home is as unrealistic as to suggest that a woman with a career cannot enjoy an enriching home and family life. Somewhere between the two seemingly antithetical extremes of married hieand professional realization is where educated women stand Is the edccatiox emerge which often today. It is dear that women need not enter only one threshold or the other: in fan. there is sufficient evidence to support the rase that the marriaee-rareex conflict is a myth. As significantly, it is becoming increasinerr apparent that the democratic ideal of developing each student to the fullest, regardless of sex. is not only an individual right, but a responsibility of society. This brief article is designed not to explore - «*» CoedS Of Today women should be educated, but to focus attention primarily on higher education as a preparation for a career. There are perhaps few things more important than to inculcate the necessity for career-planning in the minds of both young high school girls and women in college. It should be stated early that this goal is not in conflict with the liberal arts concept. Most colleges today stress a happy combination of liberal and professional education, whether they admit it or not. Host schools hold fast to the concept that women should learn to live and to make a living, and this philosophy is destined by necessity to spread even more in the future. Even,- girl interested in the pursuit of a career should plunge deeply into traditionalliberal studies. An assessment of the best of past cultures is necessary for an intelligent approach to present cultural challenges. Appreciation of the contemporary scene and the promise it holds for the future is basic to successful living. A truly liberal education provides background for this perspective. Complementary to liberal education is training for a career. The career concept has reached its maturity, and its adaptation is acclaimed by all who want to face squarely society as it is today and as it is expected to be tomorrow. That more women are working and will be working— whether young girls realize it or not—is unquestioned: in fact, two million members (or one-third) of the fulltime labor force are women, and the percentage is on therise. The National Manpower Council, in its volume on Womanpourr. reveals that nine out of ten girls will be working an average of 25 years between the late teens and age 65. This is a startling revelation, but our Tict-Ommntr f-w PUmmaf mmi Itarlf**! and Director of Vnicersitii *»*=■ » R<imamt CM.

More than one third of ÜB's entirt student body are women. modern society provides the opportunity, the time and the incentive for women to work, whether for selfrealization, a better standard of living, because the national economy needs their services, or for a multiplicity of other reasons. Surely, if ninety per cent of America's young women are destined to work for a quarter of a century, it is the obligation of American high schools and colleges to promulgate this fact and to pattern their programs in that direction. One of the most resounding notes expressing the right of women to enter higher education was based upon the premise of their service to society. It underscores the argument of educating women as an obligation to the girls and the state. In a precedent-setting decision in a case which involved alimony, a State Supreme Court ruled in the spring of 1960 that, if a father is financially able, and if the daughter or son is potentially college material, a parent not only should, but must, send the offspring to college. The Supreme Court jurist reached this decision concerning a girl who was mentally able and wanted to go to college, but whose divorced mother did not have the means. The Judge reasoned: "The importance of a college education is being more and more recognized in matters of commerce, society, government, and all human repreferred lations . The college graduate is being over those not so fortunate. No parent should subject his worthy child to this disadvantage if he has the financial capacity." He further argued, "A contrary view may have been justified in former times when the needs of the family, and of society and government, were less exacting," but, we are living in an age of keen comhe added, ". .. petition." .. . .. In his decision, the jurist clearly pointed out the re- Excellent opportunities are provided for coeds to discuss their problems with qualified advisors. Also, in a unique program, the University provides the dean of women7s'-home where many guidance session* are conducted. sponsibility of an educated citizenry for the betterment of the state. A college education "is the duty which the parent not only owes to his child, but the state as well. The stability of our government must depend upon a wellequipped, a well-trained, and a well-educated citizenry." One educator expresses a real need for educated women and for the most productive use of their potentials. At mid-year University of Buffalo commencement exercises, Dr. Edward H. Litchfield, Chancellor of the University of Pittsburgh, warned that America must marshal the strength of her culture to assure national survival. One of the questions he raised was this: Can we afford the loss of our womanpower? Dr. Litchfield pointed out that in Russia, thirty-five per cent of the faculties in universities are women and thirty-nine per cent of the engineering students, plus a majority of the surgeons, are women. It seems clear that American women are our greatest waste of human resources. Surely a college education far transcends the boundaries of liberaland professional or vocational education. If colleges are to appreciate the place of woman in this modern age and to envision her increased role in the society of the future, then in education the modern woman must enjoy everything that her male counterpart receives—and even more. Women of tomorrow are destined to witness their finest hour. In keeping with this concept, it must be the goal of American colleges to educate young women with sound philosophic principles, an understanding of the democratic ideal, individual and social dignity, intellectual alertness, sound moral fibre, aesthetic appreciation, physical maturity, and professional dedication. In this way graduates will truly be able to reach their fulfillment and to serve their society well. 7 �"Foreign students who attend classes here all come for the same reason, education each is serious in purpose and marked with a ... noticeable dedication—" RICHARD I. WILSON* discusses, The Concerned Newcomer from fokeign countries, studying on our campus react to the United States, the campus, and Americans in many ways. They are Students frequently impressed, sometimes amazed, and often puzzled by what they observe. But they doreact. They react with the leveled intensity of those who carry responsibility and the knowledge that they will return to their own countries, many to become leaders in their homeland. Foreign students who attend classes here all come for the same reason, education. Some are sponsored by their governments, others are exchange students, and many pay their own way, but each is serious in purpose and markedwith a noticeable dedication. In almost every case, English is a second language, a fact which complicates their lives in many ways. Some of these students must study in fields where technical language is used and examinations impose time pressures underwhich a lack of experience with the language handicaps them. Even the problem of housing is complicated by language difficulties. Many students from Africa and India are confronted with discriminatory practices when they look for rooms and are sometimes forced to live in areas distant from the campus. These are problems they must deal with in addition to the more common lack of geographic familiarity all newcomers face. The structure of the educational system often poses a peculiar barrier as many come from countries where choice is much more limited. Here they are not only faced with choice but with choice among short titles accompanied by numbers and letters in a catalog which at times is confusing even to American students. Many don't understand the prevailing climatic conditions and bring or purchase the wrong clothes. Some have difficulty understanding purchasing values and pay exorbitant prices for clothing when they first arrive in the fall only to find their purchases inappropriate for the cold winter months. Many have been exposed to a more formal learning atmosphere and buy clothes ac- * Mr. Wilson is assistant co-ordinator of student activities. 8 cordingly, only to feel out of place in the more informal dining areas and classrooms typical of American institutions of higher education. However, these technical problems are usually overcome and steps are currently being taken by the International Club on our campus to supply incoming students with more information. It is the non-technical problems which take more time to understand. Almost all unmarried foreign students prefer theresident halls and want American roommates to facilitate their understanding of "The American way of life." The vast majority are older and have struggled for many years to overcome considerable financial and educationalbarriers to study in the United States. They come from countries where higher education is an opportunity limited to very few and are consequently amazed and have difficulty accepting theattitudes with which manyAmerican students view their studies, their professors and themselves. That these students consistently report that they are happy hereand are adjustingsuccessfully to this strange and different environment is in part the result of the excellent cooperation received by the Univershy from the International Institute, World Hospitality Service, and the citizens of the community. During each vacation period, there are many more invitations to visit homes than there are foreign students available. Those who do spend some time in the homes of American families often find these contacts among their most memorable experiences. In contrast to many out of town American students who claim to lose their identity when they come here, the foreign students feel that they are representing their countries. This tendency to consider the consequences of their actions results in responsible behavior. These visitors from 25 different nations (numbering 97 this year) through their many contacts and speaking engagements in the community and their unique campus contributions, are a welcome group who offer a strong hope for the ultimate solution of manyof the problems of the world with which we are confronted today. �SUSAN CBEERBUBC Times have changed.

Scott Thompson Barbara Nolan Robert Schloredt Arthur Wortman .But there is a serious side. Today's students, many professors say, are more accomplished than the average of their predecessors. Perhaps this is because there is greater competition for college entrance, nowadays, and fewer doubtful candidates get in. Whatever the reason, the trend is important. For civilization depends upon the transmission of knowledge to wave upon wave of young people—and on the way in which they receive it, master it, employ it. add to it. If the transmission process fails, we go back to the beginning and start over again. We are never more than a generation away from total ignorance. Because for a time itprovides theworld's leaders, each generation has the power to change the course of history. The current wave is thus exactly as important as the one before it and the one that will come after it. Each is crucial in its own time. What will the present student generation do? What are its hopes, its dreams, its principles? Will it build on our past, or reject it? Is it, as is so often claimed, a generation of timid organizationpeople, born to be commanded? A patient band of revolutionaries, waiting for a breach? Or something in between? No one—not even the students themselves—can be sure, of course. One can only search for clues, as we do in the fourteen pages that follow. Here we look at, and listen to, college students of 1961—the people whom higher education isall about. What are today's students like? To help find out, we invite you to join A seminarfrocmastuden �PHOTOS: HERB WEITMAN Robert Thompson Roy Muir Ruth Vars Galen Unger Parker Palmer Patricia Burgamy Kenneth Weaver David Gilmour Martha Freeman Dean Windgassen fourteen young men and women pictured above come from fourteen colleges and universities, big and little, located in all parts of the United States. Some of their alma maters are private, some are state or city-supported, some are related to a church. The students1 studiesrange widely—from science and social studies to agriculture and engineering. Outside the classroom, their interests are similarly varied. Some are athletes (one is Ail-American quarterback), some are active in student government, others stick to their books. To help prepare this report, we invited all fourteen, as articulate representatives of virtually every type of campus in America, to meet for a weekend of searching discussion. The topic: themselves. The objective: to ob- The tain some clues as to how the college student of the Sixties ticks. The resulting talk—recorded by a stenographer and presented in essence on the following pages—is a revealing portrait of young people. Most revealing—and in a way most heartening—is the lack of unanimity which the students displayed on virtually every topic they discussed. As the seminar neared its close, someone asked the group what conclusions they would reach about themselves. There was silence. Then one student spoke: "We're all different,"he said. He was right. That was the only proper conclusion. Labelers, and perhaps libelers, of this generation might take note. �a "Being astudeniswo rfulthing." ERICH HARTMAim, MAGHUM I I uI r a �years are exciting years. They are exciting for the participants, many of whom are on their own for the first time in their lives—and exciting for the onlooking adult. But for both generations, these are frequently painful years, as well. The students' competence, which is considerable, gets them in dutch with their elders as often as do their youthful blunders. That young people ignore the adults' soundest, most heartfelt warnings is bad enough; that they so often get away with it sometimes seems unforgivable. Being both intelligent and well schooled, as well as unfettered by the inhibitionsinstilled by experience, they readily identify the errors of their .elders—and they are not inclined to be lenient, of course. (The one unforgivable sin is the one you yourself have never committed.) But, lacking experience, they are apt to commit many of the same mistakes. The wise adult understands this: that only in this way will they gain experience and learn tolerance—neither of which can be conferred. Studekt "They say the student is an animal in transition.

"You just get in the old mill," said one student panelist, "and your head spins, and you're trying to get ready for this test and that test, and you are going along so fast that you don't have time to find yourself." The mill, for the student, grinds night and day—in classrooms, in libraries, in dining halls, in dormitories, and in scores of enterprises, organized and unorganized, classed vaguely as "extracurricular activities." Which of theactivities —or what combination of activities—contributes most to a student's education? Each student must concoct the recipe for himself. "You have to get used to living in the mill and finding yourself," saidanother panelist. "You'll always be in the mill —all through your life."

There, where one's College progress is measured at least partly by examinations and grades, the stress put upon one's sense of honor is heavy. For some, honor gains strength in the process. For others, the temptation to cheat is irresistible, and honor breaks under the strain. Some institutions proctor all tests and examinations. An instructor, eagle-eyed, sits in the room. Others have honor systems, placing upon the students themselves the responsibility to maintain integrity in the student community and to report allviolators. How well either system works varies greatly. "When you come right down to it," said one member ofour student panel, "honor must be inculcated in the yearsbefore college —in the home." ST.

In some ways we're going to be a little rebellious. We're going to show you what we can really do." Today's college students are perhaps the most thoroughly analyzed generation in our history. And they are acutely aware of what is being written about them. The word thatrasps their nerves most sorely is "apathy." This is a generation, say many critics, that plays it cool. It may be casually interested in many things, but it is excited by none. Is the criticism deserved? Some college students and their professors think itis. Others blamethe times —times without deprivation, times whose burning issues are too colossal, too impersonal, too remote and say that the apparent student lassitude is simply society's lassitude in microcosm. The quotation that heads this column is from one of the members of our student panel. At the right is what some of the others think. -w- -t-e "'■^\/\/ — "Our student legislature fought most ofthe year about taking stands. The majority rationalized, saying it wasn't our place; what good would it do?

But I see indications ofan awakening ofinterest. It isn't how we feel about issues, but whether we feel at all." Tm sure it'spractically the same everywhere. We have 5,500full-time students, but onlyfifteen or twenty ofus went on the sit-downs." "I think there is a great deal ofstudent opinion aboutpublic issues.

So we are at a train station; what's coming?" HERB TOTMAN the things that bother us is that there is no great issue we feel we can personally "*- come to grips with." The panel was discussing student purposes. "We need a purpose," one member said. "I mean a purpose other than a search for security, or getting that $18,000-a-year job and being content for therest of your life." "Isn't that the typical college student's idea of his purpose?" "Yes, but that's not a purpose. The generation of " "■"j guess one of the Thirties—let's say they had a purpose. Perhaps we'll get one, someday." "They had to have a purpose. They were starving, almost." "They were dying of starvation and we are dying of overweight. And yet we still should have a purpose —a real purpose, with some point to itother than selfish mediocrity. We do have a burning issue—just plain survival. You'd think that would be enough to make us react. We're not helpless. Let's do something." �Have students changed? - Some professors' opinions " H yes, I ' indeed," a professor said recently, "I'd runs. They don't understand the complexity of things; everything looks black or white to them. They say, 'This is what ought to be done. Let's do it!'" "If their parents could listen in on their children's bull sessions, I think they'd make an interest- I say students have changed greatly in the last J ten years and—academically, at least—for the better. In fact, there's been such a change lately that we may have to revise our sophomore language course. What was new to students at that level three years ago is now old hat to most of them. "But I have to say something negative, too," the professor went on. "I find students more neurotic, more insecure, than ever before. Most of them seem to have no goal. They're intellectually stimulated, but they don't know where they're going. I blame the world situation—the insecurity of everything today." "I can't agree with people who see big changes in students," saidanother professor, at another school. "It seems to me they run about the same, year after year. We have the bright, hard-working ones, as we have always had, and we have the ones who are just coasting along, who don't know why they're in school —just as we've always had." "They're certainly an odd mixture at that age—a combination of conservative and romantic," a third professor said. "They want the world to run in thenway, without having any idea how the world actually ing discovery," said another faculty member. "The kids are talking and worrying about the same things theirfathers and mothers used to talk and worry about when they were in college. The times have certainly changed, but the basic agony —the bittersweet agony of discovering its own truths, which every generation has to go through —is the same as it's always been. "Don't worry about it. Don't try to spare the kids these pains, or tell them they'll see things differently when they're older. Let them work it out. This is the way we become educated—and maybe even civilized." "I'd add only one thing," said a professor emeritus who estimates he has known 12,000 students over the years. "It never occurred to me to worry about students as a group or a class or a generation. I have worried about them as individuals. They're all different. By the way: when you learn that, you've made a pretty profound discovery."

They are, quite frankly, more mature and more realistic than the students preceding World War 11. To some ofus who were undergraduates in the 20's and 30's, this easily explainable attitude is at times so noticeablethai we wonder ifthey are missing some ofthe things we think we had. As students, Ifeel they are more satisfactory in every way; as persons they show they knowthe world they mustface is not in good shape and that truly educated people are needed if the grave problems of the future are not to overwhelm them and us and their children Henry Lee Smith Professor of Linguistics and English . — Ahe good students in college today are betterthan the good students of yesteryear. They are better-informed, more alert, more creative. But the poor student today seems to be poorer. He is less motivated, with more severe deficiences in subject matter preparation and study habits. These observations may be a reflection of the great amount of research on the superior student and the lack of research (or lack of application of the research) on the below-average student. Many times Ifeel sorriest for the average student. We seem to takehim for granted and not much is done to improve his lot. The student today emphasizes gain for the individual (himself) above all else, whether or not the gain is also goodfor the whole group. I believe this leads to an over-emphasis on vocation instead of real education, on the attainment of grades rather than on learning itself. Finally, the pattern of early marriage and working while attending college has made many a student a "triple-threat" man to his own fullest development. He plays three roles: spouse, wage-earner, student. He cannot be any one of these as completely as he should. The sad commentary on this is that hedoes not realize that he is depriving himself of thefulfillment of his real potential— HarrietF. Montague Professor of Mathematics - It would be easy to misstate the facts in answering the question, "Have students realty changed, and how or why?" In my long period of teaching on this campus, I have had many notable students, and the general average has been very good indeed. At no time was there a lack of serious students. Of course, tny subject is not required, and it may be inferred that only really interested persons would be likely to enroll in my classes. It seems to me that there is now At hast as large a part of thestudent body that may be called serious as there was in the past; and there maybe a greater general awareness ofthe importance of a good education, in the sciences and in the humanities. I have confidence in the college youth of today MarvinFarber Dist. Professor ofPhilosophy — University life is vastly different from what it used to be and on the surface college students are no longer quite the same. However after a half century of intimate association with youth I can say categorically that the general pattern of behavior of the current college boy and girl is not much different than it was fifty years ago indeed I think that it is better. Youth is much older thanit used to be. It uses more mature judgment and better decorum. But the fires of youth have not been extinguished. We would not want it so. Enthusiasm, exuberance and "pranksterism" exist today in the same measure that they did years ago. They have howeverbeen brought under better control. The wonder is that youth does as well as it does in view of the example set by its elders. Many of our time honored conventions are ignored in every day adult life. These promiscuities put a young student's power of resistance to the severest tests. With relatively few exceptions I think that they are making a pretty high score Bertram A.

I might say that I have had my cynical moments. When I was graduated from college, the idea of alumni reunions was repellent. I read with a grimace the first letter from our class secretary about getting the old gang together again. The legend of the alumni reunion on the American scene had, historically, been none too savory; and I was deeply infected. By the 1920's the satire of men like Mencken, Sinclair Lewis and Scott Fitzgerald had fixed it in the popular imagination, until it became a kind of symbol of all that was hypocritical and banal—a sorry spectacle of sentimentality, alcoholism, pretence; old age pretending to be middle-age; middle-age pretending to be youth; everybody pretending that he was glad to see everybody else and that of course he remembered everybody's name; and everybody in despair taking to the bottle, the quickest way to overcome the general embarrassment. There was the pretence of "loyalty" to the old school as the motive that brought one back—and not the prospect of a nice trip and a bibulous weekend or an escape from the wife and children. The typical reunion bill-of-fare on most campuses was made up largely (on the public side) of athletics; and for strictly inside stuff the midnight and ghostly fraternal doings. Then there was the inevitable and raucous class dinner, with incoherent speeches by good old Joe and good old Pete; with songs that started bravely but seldom survived the shouts and jeers of the more alcoholic brethren—or the drab truth that almost everybody had forgotten the words. These were the barbaric days, orgiastic and wonderful in their own way. The roaring 20's had their own kind of heroes, for whom I have no little respect. But barbaric, in the main, and vulnerable. They weren't even honest orgies. Certainly they had very little to do with their academic origins and contexts. To be sure, there were redeeming moments and islands of sanity here and there; old friendships were renewed and even new ones made—unexpected discoveries. But, by and large, they were deeply, fundamentally unsatisfying, even (I suspect) to those who drank the deepest and shouted the loudest. What was wrong? Why the sense that somehow it didn't come off? Why did the alumni reunion become the symbol of much that was hypocritical and vulgar in American culture? What was the essence of our failure? But enough about the abuses of the past—they are easy to ridicule, easy to overstate. We have improved. This article was written by Richard B. Sewall, class of '29, and we have reprinted it from the Williams Collegealumni publication. 26 . There are many reasons why UB Alumni return for June Weekend . see campus changes, havefamily fun, meet and congratulate the new class, Photographs taken by Audio-Visual last year during Alumni Weekend /'Utilities �But I'm still not sure that we are entirely clear about the heart and essence of the thing. Or at the very least, I thinkit needs public statement. Mencken, Lewis, Fitzgerald were wrong, of course— or only partly right. Typically, what they saw was the acquire some new knowledge in surface of things. What they missed was the pity of it; as satirists, they were not given to charity. But, most the Alumni College, important, what they missed was the idea that redeemedit: the idea behind all such functions, often obscured in the alcoholic haze, often poorly articulated or vulgarized out of recognition. Because two or three hundred men do not come two or three hundred miles every so often just to drink, or initiate, or sing the old songs, or slap the old backs, or see the purple warriors battle it out, or just for the trip and a vacation. What do they come back for? All these trivial motivations may be active—each in itself has its merits—and any one of them may tip the balance between taking the long trip and a quiet weekend at home. But they don't exhaust the possibilities, and in the possibilities they don't exhaust may he the redeeming truth. Human beings aren't as simple as all that. The birds come back, as Emily Dickinson wrote, to take a backward look. To take a look at what? They come to see (whether they put it this way or not) the image of themselves of 5,10, 15, 20 years and more ago. They attend reunions to renew acquaintances with come to see themselves as they were inthe days before "old" classmates. they made the great commitments—to this or that profession or business; or community; or political party; plain vegetating.

He was graduated from Haverford College in 1922, and after two years of study at Columbia University, he went as a Rhodes Scholar to New College, Oxford. In June, 1927 he received the degree Bachelor of Letters from Oxford, and the following September he came to the University of Buffalo as an instructor in English. In 1929 he accepted a post at the University of Colorado at Boulder, from which he returned to the University of Buffalo in 1931,to resume his teaching as Professor of English. He became Director of the University Libraries in 1934, retired from that position in 1960. This is biography, indicating Charles Abbott's place in the fellowship of educated men. But his contributions to the university can in no way be measured by these public records of his service. The extensive and varied holdings of the Lockwood Library are proof of his diligence, his discernment in the selection of books, as the Poetry Collection is evidence of his vision and enterprise in promoting a project in which he wholeheartedly believed. Both represent his dedication to the dissemination and preservation of knowledge; both are indicative of his resolute and uncompromising insistence that a library should not be merely a repository of books, but that it should have a vital and creative function in the educational pattern of a university. Toward this end he moved with bold and imaginative plans, with practical efforts, and with inexhaustible patience. The very originality of the Poetry Collection attracted interestedattention; manuscripts were proffered, books were purchased, its holdings grew to impressive proportions. But for Charles Abbott, no collection of archives was sufficient in itself. He fostered, through lectures and readings, through personal contacts and informal gatherings, through every ingenious means at his disposal, the exchange of ideas. Poets, some then famous, some since distinguished, and persons in other fields of letters, came to the university. Constantly he infused intothe academic community his own vitality, his own conviction that learning is contemporary as well as continuous. What words are there in which to praise great teaching? Phaedo could say only of his masterwhen he died, "Of all men I have known, he was the wisest, justest and best." Dante, haltedinhis dreadful journey by the sight of his teacher, cried out, "While I live, I will speak of you with gratitude." Both were utterances from the heart, yet how much is left unsaid! Charles Abbott, in On This article was written by Anne McCarthy Ludlow, BA'36, MA'39. 26 UB Audio-Viiwal his teaching, most directly fulfilled the commitment of his life, that men of his calling must indeed gladly learn and gladly teach. Face to face with his students, he gave unstintingly of his great gifts: his store of knowledge, his alert and searching mind, his masterful competency with language. His approach to the teaching of literature combined the meticulous chronology of the historian, the analysis and appraisal of the critic, the sharp scrutiny of the careful craftsman, and the joy of a man who has himself found treasure and is eager to share its possession. In his interpretation he was always entertaining, but never an entertainer. His attitude was too gravely responsible for flippancy, yet he infallibly called attention to the humor and delight intrinsic in the material he taught. For him knowledge was exciting and alive; he infected his students with a sense of its immediacy. None listened to him and went away indifferent; some willfeel always his quickening influence in their lives. In one of the old books of the lawthere is an admonition: "All men are born to face an insurmountable task. No one can live to complete his own, but the man who makes a brave beginning can bring down the stars." The brave beginning of this man was ended too soon, leaving him with work unfinished and hopes unfulfilled. None of us can help but mourn the productive years lost to us, which he did not have. Yet none of us, witnesses to his great accomplishments, canfail to see the stars which he in very truth brought down and left to shine among us. �WHAT ARE UB STUDENTS REALLY LIKE (continuedfrom page S) involves real pride inthe growth, development, achievements, and accomplishments in all phases of university parents look upon the university as simply an extension of high school and expect their sonor daughter to maintain home relationships similar to those existing during high school. Even vocational goals differ for local students whose roots with Western New York are too deep to cut, a consideration not affecting those from outside this area. life. There are some interesting attendance figures relative to the effect a winning football team has on one aspect of pride in one's school. The VMI football game this fall, for example, was attended by over 3100 students, an all time record. Interest has risen rapidly over the past several years, since as recently as 1954 only 300 students turned out for a UB game at Civic Stadium. Student Activities Faculty-Student Relationships "Even on campuses where there is an elaborate system of student organizations and activities, studies suggest that only about one-third of the student body participates to any extent. Interest in student groups, clubs, even fraternities, has steadily dwindled, except perhaps for the freshman who is trying to find his footing in this new world of college life,"Wise observes. The University of Buffalo experienced a relatively slow development in student activities and self-government, although UB students established voting records during Student Senate elections last spring. This is only the third year of a new student government constitution. A student court met for tflfe first time in university history in February, 1959 to judge cases of their peers. Fraternity and sorority groups on the Buffalo campus presently represent approximately 15 per cent of the full-time undergraduate student body, below the nationalaverage of 30 per cent affiliation. The 17fraternities include around 600 actives, while seven sororities total 160 women. Today's college students have a new eagerness to meetand know their teachers outside of the classroom, but still as teachers. UB students do not differ from their counterparts throughout the country when they complain that they "never meet the faculty" or that "the faculty has no interest in students." Many individuals and student groups consistently express interest in convocations that would involve faculty and students, and urge more contact through coffee hours, discussion groups, and similar affairs. Students here cite a needfor improvement of communication between themselves and the faculty. Yet, the barriers to effective faculty-student contacts are naturally going to increase with larger numbers of studentsand expanding physical facilities, since certain advantages of size seem to be Campus Traditions and School Spirit "Campus traditions, in activities and behavior, have tended to disappear," says Wise "and new ones to replace them seem slow to materialize—a source of regret to many people, particularly the alumni groups." Residence hall developments may tend to alter this at ÜB, butthis institution—despite itsfounding date of 1846 has not really had much time to develop "traditions." The university campus is relatively young, with only 40 years on its present site. Since he already spent four years decorating a high school gym with crepe paper, we can hardly blame anyone for being bored if he is again asked, on entering college, to join a committee for this same assignment. Because of many inroads the high school has made on campus life, student activities at the university level are and must generally undergo an important transition, becoming more closely allied with the educational objectives of the institution. "School Spirit" is intangible and impossible to measure. A strong residence hall program and positive support from all student organizations may foster the development of proper school spirit. Such spirit must be more than a revival of the "Joe College" concept. It — invariably paralleled by an increasing impersonalization of student-faculty relationships. Worth stressing is Wise's observation that students are interested in the improvement of their college. "There is littleevidence that students wish to take over the direction of the college but much that they wish to share in the planning designed to meet the problems the college faces in securing adequate funds, recruiting and holding ablefaculty, and developing the physical plant. This growing desire on the part of students to interest themselves seriously in the problems of the college before they become alumni is so contrary to established tradition as to arouse suspicion and draw criticism from the colleges themselves It is a break with tradition and hence is subject to the problems inherent in the growth of new tradition." The most important impact on the recent development of the University of Buffalo revolves around the current merger of basic urban foundations with residence hall influences of recent origin. There are glimmerings of a newform of school spirit and pride in being associated with a growing institution. Otherwise, the majority of today's UB students, perhaps because of the school's unique urban development, do not seem to differ essentially in outlook, background, and attitude when compared with their predecessors. These students, in most respects, also reflect the heterogeneous background and strong vocational interests of their counterparts attending other colleges and universities through- ... out the nation. 29 �Classnotes '24 Arts (e)—Edward H.

UB TO BECOME STATE U MERGER SET FOR '62 Plans have been made for the University of Buffalo to begin a gradual conversion to a State University on July 1, GovernorRockefeller revealed, March 16. A budget item of $4.5 million has been set aside in the State to go to the University at the beginning of its fiscal year. Included in the $4,500,000 is $1,900,000 to make up the difference between income for tuition and endowment and operating cost, and $2,500,000 to assist in carrying out the capital expenditures program. During the next year, the University willremain a private institution, with the same tuition. The only change will occur in the Medical School where the freshman class will increase from 80 to 100 if the qualified applicants are found. The effective date ofthe merger has not been determined, but it's probable that it will take place during the summer of 1962. However, the bill to appropriate the money which was sponsored by Senator Walter Mahoney, majority leader, and approved by the Senate, was never presented to the Assembly. Apparently it got lost in the last-minute rush. Loss of the bill does not necessarily mean that we will have to go into negotiations withoutfinancial aid. The issuing of a certificate of intent would release the money, and assurances have been given by Senator Mahoney, Assembly Speaker, Joseph F. Carlino, and the Governor, that this will be handled expeditiously. In speaking at the Medical School Clinical Day, Chancellor Furnas predicted that the merger with the State will help the University to become, "one of the most magnificent educational institutions of its kind in the United States." He was 30 making the prediction in the face of criticism and a feeling of uncertainty by many alumni. The decision to turn UB over to the State, he noted, was "simply a matter of survival" in the face of anticipated deficits which were expected to become unsurmountable once the State implements its Master-Plan to establish undergraduate liberal arts colleges in Buffalo. Dr. Furnas also noted that along with the merger with the State University, a University of Buffalo Foundation will be created to receive and administrate private gifts. Such support will be needed to provide for special research projects, fellowships, and other purposes which are not supported by state budgets. Practically all state universities have found it necessary to establish such privately supported foundations to assure effective operation. Hecommented: "While the state is expected to supply the meat and potatoes, private contributions will be needed to give the vitamins without which life would be impossible."

It's PLUNGING Into The Atome Age " *' . **""_" W^^^ ��Plunging Into The Atomic Age Visiting the newly dedicatedWestern Newa York space on Nuclear Research Center is like puttinglanding in a helmet, taking off in a rocket, and a college strange city of the future. It'shard for even courses to graduate with an abundance of science University, realize that with this new facility at the we have literally plunged into theatomic age. Not strange to this new world of nuclear technology, though, is a blue-eyed, cheerful man, meticulously dressed, who conceived the idea for the Center, raised the money, and is now general manthe ager. To him must go much of the credit for realization of this "great new instrument of peaceful progress," as Governor Rockefeller called the Center in his dedicatory address. History of the center It all began in 1954 when James C. Evans was thinking about the future of the University and the Niagara Frontier. He saw how important the harnessing of atomicpower was to be, and the great possibilities this nuclear know-how could have on the local economy. Moreover he felt that the University had a real responsibility to nurture atomic development in Western New York by providing a facility on the Campus for teaching and research, and to provide assistance to industry, in whatever way it could, as they, too, attempted to incorporate the latest achievements into their own current programs. To satisfy the needs of the University and industry, the Center was conceived with the following in mind: To provide experimental facuities and scientific personnel for education, research and development utilizing the techniques of nuclear science; to provide opportunity for industrial personnel themselves to use the facilities of the Center for their research or close contact with research done for them by the staff; to provide education and training courses in the theory and practice of the various branches of nuclear science; to provide competent scientists to serve as consultants in the application of nuclear energy techniquesin industrial problems; to provide a clearing house for de-classified information on newly developedprocesses and techniquesin 2 This solid array of steel scaffolding was constructed to hold up the wooden molds into which concrete was poured for the roof of the Containment building. Beginning construction in September '59 on bedrock. Geographically speaking, the building couldn't be located in a better place —on Onondaga limestone. �nuclear science; to provide sample-irradiation services, produce short lived radioisotopes, chemical synthesis of tracer compounds. Plans for the Center were supported by The Chancellor, The Council and by a Facilities Committee composed of Faculty Members, so the man with the idea began to search for the wherewithal to support it. How he accomplished that wouldbe another story in itself, but much energy and effort on the part of a very small group was expended before the $2.2 million was raised. Grants for financing came from the following sources: Industry: Bell Aircraft, $75,-000; CarborundumCo., Columbus McKinnon Corp., Cornell Aeronautical Lab., Inc., the Courier-Express, Hooker Chemical Corp., and Houdaille Industries, $50,000 each. U. S. Government: National Science Foundation $425,000; (for equipment), $139,295; National Institute of Health, $250,000; a contract was entered into with New York State for $1,000,-000 on a matching fund basis. In addition, the U. S. Atomic Energy Commission contributed $30,764 for the cost of fabricating the fuel elements and waived charges for their use and reprocessing. Five years after the first plans for an Atomic Center at the University were proposed, the cornerstone was laid (November, 1959). One of the five most powerful privately owned reactors outside of government owned facilities, the 1,000,000 watt Center attained criticality on March 24, 1961; the building was dedicated April 20. Full scale education and research activities for the University, other educational institutions and industries of the area began June 1 when the Reactor reached its maximum power. At that point there was a beautiful blue glow at the center of the 'swimming pool' reactor. How the reactor works Most of us know that atomic reaction produces energy in the form of heat. In addition, radiation is generated in large amounts. In our 'swunming pool' reactor, the heat from the nuclear reactor is eliminated by an elaborate cooling system, thus leaving behind theradiation which in turn is channelled into various experimental facilities. In effect thereactor is a threestories high tank the lower halfof which is encased in six-foot thick concrete. The inside of the tankis lined with aluminum and the fuel elements containing the Uranium 235 are placed ona grid plate at thebottom of the tank. Surrounding this is 10,000 gallons of demineralized water which not only shields workers from radiation but acts as a moderatorfor the reactor cone as well. Continued on next page the chain reaction becomes self sustainingand the desired neutrons and gammarays are generated. Circulatingwater (C) is passed through heat exchangers to carry off the heat from nuclear fission. Walls (D) of 6' thick high density concrete shield workers from radiation. A thermal column (E), consisting'of graphiteblocks which slow the neutrons down to low or thermal energies, allows experiments to be carried on against its outer face. A movable concrete shield (F) seals the column. Neutrons for experimentation outside the reactor are carried through beam tubes (G). The hot cell (H) is for conducting experiments on extremelyradioactive material by remote control through master-slave manipulators (I). The window (J) is provided for gamma irradiation inside the hot cell, utilizing fuel elements placed on ledge (K). Samples can be carried from the laboratories to the reactor core and back through pneumatic tubes (L). The reactor has been designed so that future expansion of its capabilities will be practical. . OVERHEARD AT THE DEDICATION Governor Rockefeller was besieged by students The cutaway drawing shows the Research Center's 1000 KW nuclearreactor built by AMF. Essentially it is a device for producing billions of neutrons and gamma rays. The reactor core (A) has 36 fuel elements and 4 control rods (B). When the control rods are withdrawn from the core on those few occasions when they could get to him. Once,corralled in the lower part of the reactor by autograph-hunting students, the Governor exchanged this bit of conversation with an enterprising student: Student: What courses should I study, sir, to become Governor? Governor: Well, I studied economics,if that's any guide. S: Well, I'm sure personality and drive have a lot to do with it, also. G: I'm not convinced of that. I've come to feel in almost all instances events make men, men don't make events. And with that the fast-moving Governor was off for another round of events which, in truth, he is shaping constantly. — 3 �The process ofradiation is controlled from an elaboratecontrol board near the reactor. This type of unit was chosen because of its basic proven safety and versatility. A nuclear reactor like this one produces gamma rays and neutrons which make possible studies of radiation effects in physics, chemistry, bio-chemistry, biology, engineering, medicine, agriculture, etc. The reactor can also be used to createradioisotopes which are of great valuein the so-called 'tracer' techniquesofresearch and for certain medical treatments and promoting certain chemical reactions. Applications for nuclear energy dedication and the open house, some 4000 people visited the Reactor. At top Govenor Rockefeller examines the working end of the master-slave manipulators.

You can see some of the beautiful design of the Floor which resembles that in the GuggenheimMuseum in New York. During the Most of us really don't appreciate the amount of basic information in physics and chemistry that nuclear energy can disclose, comments Dr. Ralph F. Lumb. director of the Center. But this is the knowledge that affects our industry and our daily lives. For instance, nuclear research has shown us how to make insulation for wires that won't deteriorate at temperatures of, say, 500 degrees. A marked improvement has been made in the cigarettes you smoke by using beta gages in the automatic packing machines. They control the density of tobacco. In addition to making easier smoking cigarettes, the manufacturers havesavedmillions of dollars bypractically eliminating waste. Nuclear-poweredplants for generating electricity will be really competitive by 1968, predicted U. S. Atomic Energy Commissioner Robert E. Wilson addressing 100 scientists before the dedication of the Nuclear Center. He also noted the tremendous growth of useofradioactive isotopes. Already 500,000 patients a year are benefiting from new medical techniques based on such isotopes and 2000 bio-medical research projects using similar isotopes are advancing man's knowledge still further. "In agriculture, tracers are increasing the availability and variety of food and other farm products. They are providing more information about fertilizers, growth hormones, weed killer, insectides and other agricultural chemicals. Moreintense radiation is indispensable in research to develop new crop varieties by changing the genetic characteristics of the plant." Education on nuclear technology Besides supplying direct radiation or producing radioisotopes, this facility was designed as a tool for education and research. The University now offers a full-scale curriculum for the preparationof industrial scientists and engineers, technical courses for industrial employees, and general survey-type courses for supervisory personnel. Basic to this program was the establishment in 1958 of a new graduate program in nuclear studies leading to a degree of Master of Science in Nuclear Technology. 4 �— — — Dignitaries on the Dedication platform were: Row 1 The Governor, Seymour Knox, and Dr. Furnas; Row 2 Dr. C.

In addition to the one year, on the job, practical training to include experience with all aspects of the Research Center's facilities and 132 hours offormal lectures on fundamental nuclear concepts, special evening courses in nuclear techniques and summer institutes to provide intensive training in the fundamentals of handling and utilizing radioactive materials will bet held. Various courseswhich are offeredinclude: Nuclear Reactor Theory, Fundamentals of Chemistry for Nuclear Engineers, Nuclear Chemistry, Radiation Biology, and Radiation Biophysics, to mention only a few. The Western New YorkNuclear Research Center, Inc.is a non-profit corporationownedby theUniversity of Buffalo. Its facilities will be open to theUniversity's faculty and graduate students in related fields,to the Roswell Park Memorial Institute for Cancer Research, other state educational agencies. THE UNIVERSITY You really don't have to don a helmet when touring the Research Center,but visitors must wear a film badge which tells whether or not one has inadvertently been exposed to anyradiation. Before you leave the building you must also check your hands and feet in a monitoring machine as an added precaution. Thus people visiting the Center cannot track radiation particles around. Now that the Center is in full operationonly authorized personnel are allowed to enter it. The design of the building, and the recently added abstract sculptures lend to the weird feeling that we're standing in a future era. Mr. Evans remarked that the Guggenheim Museum in New York City built by the late Frank Lloyd Wright conveyed this same sense of the future to him. Of course, he is also careful to point out the design of the terrazzo floor in the Lobby of the Center,which is like thatin the great architectural wonder.—J. M.

So monumental was this task, in fact, that John Okoniewski, director of housing, referred to it as the big move. What happened was that all the residence halls were evacuated, and thestudentsrelocated. Freshman and sophomorewomenmoved into Ella Conger Goodyear Hall which houses 500. Upperclass women moved into MacDonald Hall. All freshman men, including 225 who had been living off campus, moved into the Tower Residence Hall. Upperclassmen took over Cooke,Schoellkopf and Michael where the women had been living before the completion of Goodyear. Well, it wasa pretty confusing two days, but as thelast dress was hung in the closet, tennis rackets stashed away, and books piled wherever room couldbe found, all seemed happy to be finally settled. 6 �Photos — Lynn Eidumr, BFA '60. 7 �A first-hand experience of a traveling professor- HAVE TEXTBOOK—WILL TRAVEL by Harold J. Vetter* X HE Military Orders I was issued at U. S. Army Headquartersin Heidelberg, Germany, were only a trifle bulkier than the master plan for the invasion of Normandy and nearly as simple to decipher as a Tibetan colophon. They instructed me, in that blubber-lipped jargon which is the Army's current brand of bafflegab, to report "on or about" suchand-such date to a certain air base situated somewhere in the boondocks of northern Italy. Its precise whereabouts was classified, presumably, since no one seemed disposed to let me in on the secret. A tour of several offices netted me the following: (1) a series of application forms for re-enlistment, (2) an invitation to give a lecture to the NCO Wives' Club,(3) a booklet of instructions on how to field-strip a "machine-gun, caliber .50, aircooled, Browning", (4) a-year's subscription to Army Times, and (5) an appointment to Staff and Com- mand School. Ifled precipitately to the Hauptbahnhof and took refuge in a brew with the highly diverting name of Dinkelacker. Thus fortified, I boarded tie Orient Express (with trenchcoat collar turnedup and snap brim pulled down), feeling like a character from an Eric Ambler novel. I was keenly disappointed at making it all the way to the Italian border without having been approached by a dark, sultry woman with a long cigarette holder and an easternEuropean accent. So unstrung was I, in fact,that I celebrated my arrival in Venice by nearlyfalling into the Grand Canal. After a weekend which left me shaken and wan, I set out intrepidly in search of my air base. 'Dr. Vetter hold, three degree, /ram ÜB, BA'4», MA'62. PhD'BB. He taught psychology here and worked for the Huffau, court,. 8 �course... evenOh,Ifound it, of tually. After all, it'srather difficult even a to mislay an air base little one. But not before I had fossicked all over the province of Vittorio Veneto, subsisting mainly on pizza, ravioli, and sundry additional items Icould puzzle out on an Italian bill of fare. My ardor was further dampened by the fact that Ireached the base in a dead heat with the first installment of the autumn rains: no thin Protestant drizzle, either, but a genuine Roman Catholic frog-strangler. The hulking Air Policeman at the main gate fixed me with one of those oystery stares they seem to reserve for civilians and demanded some identification. I must have fumbled long enough to convince him I was straight from a briefing by Khrushchev before finally digging out an AGO card which certified that I was a bonafide U. S. citizen of reliable character and some dubiousrelationshipwith the Department of Defense. He compared my soggy features with the scowling zombie in the photo on the front, knotted bis eyebrows over the fine print on theback, and handed back the card with an expression which suggested that I might have just dismounted from a flying saucer. "Who in the h are you, any- — — way?" I informed him, with as much academic dignity as I could generate while standing one-footed in a puddle which topped my shoelaces, thatI was an assistant professor of psychology in the Overseas Program of the University of Maryland. He grappled a bit with this revelation, shook his head, heaved up a ponderoussigh, and, in a weary voice, said "OK, Mac I give up. What kinda racket is that?" "To answer that question," I — retorted, "would probably require at least a whole volume." Andif itever getswritten, itwill read like a cross betweenBaedeker and the Field Service Regulations of the U. S. Army, with a special chapter devoted toobscure gastrointestinal disorders of the Near and Far East. Mostly it would coversome of theless lurid details of my five year hitch asan instructor in what is, without doubt, the most unusual experiment in the history of education—a job which has taken me, thus far, to a total of 27 U.S. military bases on four continents, logged me more flying time than Curtis Le May, and practically ruined me for a safe, sane, sedate, and sedentary career in the States. The whole thing started about twelve years ago in Europe. In response to a growing demand for a higher level of technical competence among the personnel of the "new model" armed forces, the University of Maryland was contracted by the Department of Defense to set up a program of college courses to be offered during off-duty hours. (Uncle Sam indicated a willingness to underwrite the lion's share of the expenses.) Since the American military establishment happens to be scattered from H to breakfast, this meant that the program had to be implemented on - -- a mountain-comes-to-Mohammed basis. The GI students couldn't go traipsing off to the campus, so the campus was brought to them. Which reaffirms an old chestnut about the sun never setting, etc. With divisions in theNorth Atlantic, Europe, and the Far East, the Maryland campus literally girdles the globe. This was only the beginning. What happenedafter that still has professional educators muttering in their beards. Continued on next pmge 9 �Whole libraries have been written on the Amermilitary ican GI: his care and feeding, morale, bearing (or lack of it), sense of humor, ingenuity, one, to resourcefulness even his sex habits. No discussed knowledge, has ever the very best of my him extensively in relation to higher learning. In the role of scholar he exhibits considerable talent, but with an approach to his studies that is likely to prove somewhat disconcerting to a professor who joins the overseas faculty expecting the well-oiled regularities of stateside academic life. For example, one of my colleagues who teaches English assigned his freshman class (average age: 33) a composition on the subject of "Do it yourself' as an exercise in expository writing. One enterprising student returned a minor masterpiece on how to construct a home still for making moonshine, together with a beautifully detailed scale drawing. Another budding GI Milton handed in a composition which delineated the procedure for giving an enema according toregulations, and concluded with these flawless gems of advice: "It is generally advisable to inform the patient in advance that the enema is going to be administered. Otherwise he is apt to get provoked when taken by surprise. Also, whenever possible, one should avoid the use of a garden hose or boiling water." Just before I left Kyushu for my present assignment, one of my students an Air Force sergeant told me about an who works in air trafficcontrol incident that perfectly illustrates this irrepressible attitude. At the base where we were stationed a certain colonel had succeeded, within a very short space of time, in establishing a reputation as a thorough martinet. Daily from his office there issued a spateof pettifogging orders that produced nothing but ahopelessly snarled set ofoperations and jangled nerves among the men. It was right about this time that Emperor Hirohito decided to pay a visit to Kyushu; and on the day he was scheduled to land at our base, the colonel managed to insert himself in the trafficpattern and was jockeying for position in the final approach. In the midst of the ensuing uproar, the harassed tower operator turned to his relief and said, "His Highness is circling the field, waiting to land." The sergeant glanced disgustedly at the gaggle overhead, shrugged, and asked, "Which one?" Teaching never has a chance of degenerating into mereroutine in the Overseas Program. About a year ago, in Korea, I was jolting along in my jeep one day on the rutted dirt road that runs between Tongduchon andKuma-ri. Up ahead was a half-mile long column of medium tanksand armored personnel carriers whose dust I had been eating for five or six miles. Suddenly the convoy ground to a halt; and there we sat while the minutes ticked away. The — —— 10 class I was teaching was being held at Camp St. Barbara, Ist Corps Artillery HQ, across the 38th parallel. And I was beginning to get a little panicky about meeting it on time. I clambered out of the jeep and stalked up to the head of the column where I found the CO, a major in battle garb, leaning against the side of his tank smoking a cigarette. When I asked him what was the tie-up, he cocked his thumb in the direction of the next gully. In the middle of the river bed was the wreckage of a ROK �widely separated bases by helicopter, an experience which left me with one indelible impression: my true image of Perdition is an eternity spent shuddering in the icy winds of a Korean winter on the flight apron atKimpo, waiting for an aircraft that never arrives. Fortunately there are stopovers inTokyo between assignments where, among the amenities, one tends to shed the recollection of discomfort and inconvenience. Among the manifold blandishments of a vacation in Tokyo, for the Far East faculty members, is "Opinion," a half-hour radio program co-sponsored by the Far East Network and the University of Maryland. This informal round-table discussion brings together staff members of Maryland and visiting celebrities. Among the many guests that have appeared on this program are Edward R. Murrow, James Michener, Tennessee Williams, Pearl Buck, Erskine Caldwell, Milton Caniff, and William Lederer and Eugene Burdick to mention only a few. Then back to the boondocks again. While the physical facilities for teaching are generally the best that the bases can provide, a Maryland prof has to be prepared to use any makeshifts that happen to be available. Atvarious times I have given lectures in thebase chapel, an airplane hangar, a quonset hut, thestock room off thebar in the NCO club, the operations shack, and once in a tent. The fact that higher education has somehow worked under these conditions is primarily due to the students themselves officersand enlisted men. They pay for these courses out of their own pockets, attend them on their own time after duty often at the end of a bone-crunching day, so beat that it's the instructor's biggest challenge to keep them awake for threehours, let alone help them to learn anything and do their studying God knows when. Most of them are married men with families. But although they gripe and moan in the best GI tradition, they never really lose their enthusiasm and zest for learning; and are motivated enough by comparison to make Horatio Alger look like a threetoed sloth. At this point, with major policy changes that drastically affect the military establishment taking place almost hourly, it would be exceedingly rash to make any predictions about the future of the Maryland Overseas Program. Nevertheless, I wrote a little piece of whimsy a few months ago which involved an imaginary conversation between the director and associate director of the University of Maryland Outer Space Program in their offices at Mare Imbrium, Luna. Of course, I was only kidding. I guess — — — — Drawing. — Lynn Eidinier, BFA. '60 half-track,still smouldering. "Mines," the major remarked conversationally. "Left over from the war. They always wash out of the silt around this time of year." On my way back to the jeepI got clammy just thinking about the number of times I had driven over that exact spot during the previous three months. More often the complications of teaching on the outer marches are aggravating and uncomfortable, rather than lethal. On myfirst trip to Korea in 1958, I was reduced to commuting between classes at . 11 �ALUMNI EDUCATED ON STATE UNIVERSITY enthusiasmrises after facts on merger are discussed University administrators like Dr. Edgar B. Cale,vice-chancellor for planning and development, have been speaking to alumni across the Country in an effort to answer questions concerning the merger with the State. Groups in Rochester, Elmira, San Francisco and New York City, and various associations such as Pharmacy, Dental, Medical, Law and the General Alumni Board have heard the Chancellor, Bradley Chapin, dean of University College, and Dr. Cale give thefacts behind the merger. After gaininga better understanding of the State plan, the various groups have complimented the Council on its decision to become merged with the State and various participating funds have pledged continuing support. The Medical Fund has passed this resolution: We "stand as one in agreement to continue the Participating Fund program of financial support the intellectual leadership for constant improvement of The University ofBuffalo School of Medicine." 12 �Theodore J. Siekmann, director of alumni relations, and alumnus. EdM '47, will spend the next few months gathering all available information on alumni organizations at other statesupported institutions. With a special alumni committee, appointed by the Executive Committee of the General Alumni Board, he will travel to several universities like Wayne, Ohio, or Penn State to get first-hand knowledgeabout their alumni associations so an early decision can be made as to how ours should be set up. Medical alumni including "old guard", graduates prior to '11, heard Dr. Furnas speak on the merger at Spring Clinical. Alumni leaders at open meetinghear Dr. Cale explain the state university plans.

During this period, he was also recalled to duty in the Korean Conflict. He returned to inactive status as a commander in 1952. He has published 22 articles on higher education affairs, and two textbooks, Practical English Grammar (1941) and High School Vocabulary (1947). Since April 1956, he has been Ur. Talman Van Arsdale, Jr., ("Tommy" to all of us who remember him in his long association with the University) will leave his post as executive vicepresident of Worcester Polytechnic Institute on July Ist to become the president of Bradley University. Another alumnus to become a university president in recent years was Dr. Earl J. McGrath, BA'2B, MA'3O, who was president of the University of Kansas City and is now executive officer of the Institute of Higher Education, Columbia University. As an undergraduate, Tommy was veryactive in campus life. He was a member of the Bee, Bison and Koran staffs, president of his junior and senior class, on many 14 Norton Union committees, and Arts Student Council President. He graduated with a major in English in 1938. While working on his Master's degree, he taught English at the Park School and served as the University's assistant alumni director. He received the MA degree in 1940. He then devoted his time to teaching full-time at the Park School and was in charge of publicity. In 1943 he became an air officer, serving with the Navy in the Pacific. Upon his return in '46, he resumed teaching at both the Park School and the University and became assistant headmaster for thePark Schoolin 1947. The next year he joined theadministrative staff of the University as Director of Alumni Relations. associated with Worcester Tech. He served first as vice-president for development and public relations, moving up in 1957 to become the college's executive vice-president. He has directed business operations, new construction, and continued his responsibility for the development and public relations program. During the five year period, five million dollars was raised. Married to the former Nancy Collard, Edß'39, "Tommy" is the father of two daughters, Janet, a Skidmore College freshman, and Beth Ann, who is in the seventh grade of Bancroft School in Worcester. Bradley University, Peoria, Illinois, was founded in 1897, and has 4500 students in 11 colleges, schools and institutes. Although the presidency of a university necessarily takes almost all of a man's time and efforts,we know we can depend upon "Tommy" to keep in contact with his fellow alumni back in Buffalo. We wish everysuccess to him, and remind ourselves that a University is only as great as the men and women it produces. �HAVE YOU HEARD .. Farber leaves university New music chairman appointed Allan Dwight Sapp Jr., a lecturer at Wellesley College, succeeds the late Cameron Baird, July 1, as chairman of the Department of Music. He was teaching fellow, instructor, and assistant professor, Harvard University (1949-58) and acting chairman of the Department of Music during the summers of 1953-54.

A FAMOUS ALUMNUS Grover Cleveland Wende, '89 He was one of the organizers and thefirst president of the Alumni Club to which some 800 alumni belongedbefore the stock market crash. The club was purchased in 1921 from GeneralEdmund Hayes. 16 VJrover Wende was probably one of the most famous and beloved physicians the University of Buffalo Medical College ever graduated. At the time of his deathin 1926,he was one of the most eminent men in American medicine, known both in this country and abroad as one of the world's leading authorities on diseases of the skin. Hewas professor of dermatology and syphilology at the University, a member ofthe national and local medical societies, and dermatologist for these hospitals: Erie County, Sisters', German, General, Children's, City and United States Marine. Dr. Wende was born in Millgrove, Erie County, April 6, 1867, the son of Bernard Philip Wende and Susan Kirk Wende. He was one of six sons. He received his early education in therural schools ofthe town of Alden and later entered the University of Buffalo Medical College, from which he graduated in 1889. He took a degree at the University of Pennsylvania the following year and went abroad to do medical research work in universities in Prague, Vienna, andParis. He began practice in Buffalo with his brother Ernest, at 174 Franklin Street in 1892. Ernest's Continued on next pete �— chiefinterest was in public health his greatest work being done in the prevention of infant's infections. It was he who introduced the rubber nipple on the nursing bottle. Grover Wende became a frequent writer for scientific publications on the subjects in which he specialized. He was a former president of the American Dermatology Association and theMedical Society of the State of New York, chairman of the dermatology section of the American Medical Association, and a member of the Surgeon General's Committee during the World War, handling the problems of skin diseases in the United States Army. Photography, particularly as applied to his work, was an absorbing hobby of his. His work was beautiful, and his large collection of lanternslides, illustrating differentforms of skin diseases was world renowned. His practice was very large (conservative estimates made by some of his colleagues at the time of his death numbered 100,000). Patients came to him from all over the country,forhisreputation wasworldwide. But no person was too small for him to see. Money meant little to him, and although his practice had great potentialities for large fees, he never availed himself of them. The following description of Dr. Wende's character gives us some insight as to why he was so beloved by his colleagues, Buffalonians and alumni: "Grover William Wende was named for the greatest man Buffalo has yet produced. Grover Cleveland and Dr. Wende's father were associated together in the District Attorney's office when Dr. Wende was born. With a prophetic eye he saw that Grover Cleveland would go-a-long way, and Grover became the first name of our friend. His second name, William, Dr. Wende said, was after a paper hanger that happened to be working in the home when he was born. Those two names, the first after one of America's greatest sons and the second after one of the humbler typify Grover Wende's character. He would meet the greatest of the world without sycophancy, and the least without loss of dignity." (1) (1) Bennett, Arthur G„ "Grover Wende as I Knew Him,"from Grover William Wende, M.D., Pi. 14.

Rain got in its last punch on Saturday, May 6th, as the freshmen and sophomores on Dick Offenhamer's Varsity eleven "learned a few lessons" from an Alumni AllStar squad coached by freshman mentor, Dewey Wade. The Alumni won, 22-0, to make the series 1-1. Key men in the "old timers" scoring sequences were halfbacks Willie Evans and Chuck Daniels, center and fullback Lou Reale, quarterbacks Gordon Bukaty, Joe Oliverio and Fred Kogut as well as a line averaging 235 lbs. which included such names as Jack Dempsey, Bernie Fagan, Phil Bamford, Ray Paolini, Nate Bliss, Gene Gollarney, Joe Shifflet, Gord DeMasi, George Delaney, Dave Brogan, Bob Adams, Dick Schwertfager, Nick Bottini. Carley Keats, Stan Kowalski,. and Joe O'Grady. The entire roster read like a Who's Who of UB football. Age and class honors went to peren- nial halfback, Jim Vitema who does everything but take tickets. As for the Varsity... they learned thatmud, weight and experience can spell the difference with emphasis on the latter quality. However, don't jump to negative conclusions. In fact, things are more promising at this point than they have been in a couple of years even in spite of the heavyweight schedule for '61. Someone asked: "Who'll play quarterback with Bukaty and Oliverio graduated?" Answer: "There are six of them ready to go, just as Buckets and Joe were as sophomores. They are: Gene Guerrie (ineligiblein '60) who hasn't lost any of theold talent, John Stofa who led the frosh to victory over Army last year, Jack Sargent who is recovered from his '60 injury, John Nathans, Al Meranto and Pat Price who saw considerable Varsity play last year. At fullback there is Jim Burd, transfer student from Nebraska who shows good punting and running abilities, along with Ed Harris who played tackle last season. This move is one of the top stratagems of the year. The other key move was a shift — .. of Dick Hort from tackle to center where he stymied the Alumni, especially as a linebacker. The halves are eager, deep and fast. Especially promising were the performances turned in by Gerry Ratkewicz and John Cimba. They are from Detroit and Grimsby, Ont. respectively. Larry Gergley is a talented end who should see plenty of action as did his older brother, Gerry. Chuck Winzer and Jim Bowden received merits for their performances. Choosing two starting guards from the frosh-soph list is a real chore. Dom Piestrak of Detroit and Jim Wolfe of Endicott have shown well. Joe Colatarciof N. Tonawanda and Dan Nole, a converted center and fullback, look great. Paul Gagliardi of Lackawanna and Jim Wick of Warren, Pa. will work with Hort at center. Know what? We haven't even mentioned the 12 senior lettermen who will return in the Fall. Yes, it looks good. The returnees will have to prove they rate their jobs. You'll miss the top season in U.B. history if you don't have your season tickets (at $16.00) now. If new seats are not added this summer, you will need a season ducat to see evenone game.Remember all games at 1:30P.M. on Rotary Field, campus.

OCTOBER 1961 ALUMNI BULLETIN �Strike up the band FRANK J. CIPOLLA who comes to UB from the University of Missouri's famous "Marching Mizzou", gives the downbeat for the 1961 Marching Bulls. Since Mr. Cipolla became director this Fall, the 84-piece band has attracted much approval from football fans. These photographs were taken at a four-day band camp held in September. Over 100 students gathered on the practice field near Baird Hall to audition for positions, and practiced from morning until night on marching fundamentals. Assisting Mr. Cipolla in the organization of this year's band has been Richard Fagan who helps plan the halftimeshows, Tom Haenle who handles administrative details, and drum major, David Weisenfreund. At left: Mr. Cipolla shows the drum section the cadence style. This sets the marching pace at from 160-180 beats per minute. Above: Marching with instruments is as tough as it looks. Students must know how to lift and hold instruments, and of course play while they march. Below: Learning basic fundamentals includes left and right face, coming to attention, and marching "eight to the five" (taking eight steps to each of the five yard markers on the practice field). 2 �GENERAL ALUMNI BOARD Executive Committee President: Harold H.

Dekany snapped Frank Cipolla as he was leading the band in its 1961 debut. Judging from the warm response given to the band both at home and on the road (Boston) where Buffalo fans gathered after the game and cheered the group on to presenting an impromptu concert, Mr. Cipolla's hard work has paid off. The word around campus is that this year's band "is the best ÜB's ever had."

What can I as a parent do to improve my child's chances of getting into the college that seems best for him? Chances are you've asked these questions, and maybe other parents have asked them of you. For admission to college has become the nation's surefire topic of conversation. Elections, baseball and international upheavals compete for attention, of course; but these matters don't touch our personal lives. Yet it seems that every American has some contact with the business of college entrance, knows a surprising amount about it—or at least thinks he does—and wants to know more. What he wants to know usually boils down to the two questions above. There is a quick answer to the first question—what are my child's chances of getting into college? Any childwho has an I.Q. of ninety-five or better, who can write a letter including a simple declarative sentence such as "I want to go to your college," who FRANK H. BOWLES IS THE NATION'S LEAD- ING AUTHORITY ON A VERY IMPORTANT MATTER TO STUDENTS AND PARENTS: HOW TO FIND THE RIGHT COLLEGE AND RECEIVE THAT LETTER OF *d "Copyrilht 1961 by Editorial ACCEPTANCEFabin Pro/ecu Bachr for Education, Inc. AIJ rijht, reserved. Phot can read without moving his lips, and who can pay college expenses up to $500 a year can go to college. But it may also be true that a child with an I.Q. of 140 who can do differential equations in bis head may not get to college. Obviously, then, the general answer can only indicate that there is a tremendous range of insti- tutions, with varying standards and opportunities, and that many factors determine actual chances of admission. For a full answer to the question, we must examine and describe these types of institutions. As a first step, let us take a hypothetical group of one hundred high school graduates who go on to college in a given year, and see what the typical pattern of their applications and acceptances would be: Twenty students, all from the top half of the class, will apply to sixty of the institutions that are 4 �apiece. Thirty students, including all of thefourth quarter and five from the third quarter, will apply to institutions that are ordinarily known as "easy." Half of these institutions will be four-year colleges, and half juniorcolleges or community colleges. All thirty students will be admitted. Fifteen will leave during the northern Middle West and on the Pacific coast. Four-fifths are private, with three-fourths of the total enrollment of the group. The one-fifth that are public have one-fourth of the enrollment. This proportion is changing; in a few years it will be threefifths private and two-fifths public, with a fifty-fifty enrollment split. It now costs about $3,000 a year to send a child to a preferred institution. "Standard" institutions—which are not selective at admission, but will not admit any student obviously destined tofail —number from 700 to 800. The larger number includes about fifty that could be considered part of the preferred listand another fifty that could be placed on the easy list. In my judgment, the smaller number is the right one for this category. It will stay about constant over the next decade, with some shifting between lists. But enrollments within the standard category will go up by at least fifty per cent. Standard institutions are of course located in every state. Seventy per cent of their enrollments are in public institutions, and thirty per cent in private ones. But the private institutions outnumber first year, and eight more during the next two years. The seven who receive degrees will go directly to employment, although one or two may return to college later for a master's degree in education. At this point, we need some specific information about the types of institutions I have just mentioned. "Preferred" institutions the ones that receive most attentionfrom high school students number from 100 to 150, depending on who makes the list. In my judgment, the larger number is correct, and the list is still growing. It should reach 200 by 1965, and 250 by 1970. The number of places available in preferred institutions now approximately 100,000 should increase to about 150,000 during the next decade. The present 150 preferred colleges are located in about fifteen states—mostly in the Northeast, the the public ones in a ratio of sixty-forty. Many of the private colleges are remarkably small. Costs at standard institutions tend to run from $1,500 to $2,500 per year. Yet some of these schools operate with very lowfees, and naturally the public ones are in the lower cost bracket. "Easy" institutions number about 800, of which 300 are four-year colleges and the rest junior colleges or community colleges. The listwill grow rapidly as colleges are established over the next decade. Even though some easy colleges will raise requirements and join the standard group, there may well be 1,500 colleges in this category by 1970. Enrollment will triple in the same period. At present about one-third of the easy institutions are four-year private colleges with enrollment problems, and many of these are trying to enter the standard group. But almostall newly establishedin- generally listed as "preferred." Ten of themwill be accepted by twenty of the institutions. Nine of the ten will graduate from their colleges, and six of the nine will continue in graduate or professional school and take advanced degrees. These ten admitted students will average six years' attendance apiece. Seventy students, forty from the top half of the class (including those ten who did not make preferred institutions), all twenty-five from the third quarter, and five from the fourth quarter, will apply to eighty institutions generally considered "standard" or "respectable." Sixty will be accepted by one or both of the colleges to which they applied. Thirty of the sixty will graduate, and ten will continue in graduate or professional school, most of them for one- or two-year programs. These sixty admitted students will average about three years of college — — — — Contirwed on next pmfr 5 �stitutions are tax-supported. Thus by 1970 the number of private colleges on this level of education will be negligible. Cost of attending these institutions is now very low; tuition ranges from nothing to $500 a year. With these descriptions established, let us consider chances of admission to these institutions, now and in the future. The "preferred" institutions are already difficult to enter, and will become more so. In general, their requirements call for an academic standing in the upper quarter of the secondary school class, and preferably in the upper tenth. School recommendations must be favorable, and the individual must show signs of maturity and purpose. Activities and student leadership have been overplayed, particularly by parents and school advisors, but they carry some weight as indications of maturity. Parental connections with colleges help, but are rarely decisive. If any factor is decisive, it is the school record as verified by College Board scores. Chances of admission to any of this group of "preferred" colleges may be estimated as follows: School record in upper ten per cent, with appropriate College Board scores and endorsement from high school not worse than two chances out of three. School record in upper quarter, with verifying College Board scores not worse than one in three. This does not mean that the student will get one acceptance out of two or three tries, but rather that this estimate of chance holds for any preferred institution he applies to. School record below the upper quarter, with strong counterbalancing factors, such as high College Board scores, remarkable personal qualities, proven talents in special fields, strong family connections, recent awakening of interest and excellent performance, achievement despite great handicaps not better than one chance inthree, and not worse than one chance infour. No others need apply. The "standard" institutions are, taken as a group, still accessible to any student whose past performance or present promise givesreasonable chances of college success. But there are gradations within the standard institutions. Some approach the selectiveness of the preferred group; others are purposefully lenient in their admissions and stiffer in later "weeding out" during the first year of college. A student shows reasonable chance of success when he has taken a secondary school program, including at least two yearsof mathematics, two years of a foreign language, and four years of English, has — — — passed all subjects on thefirst try, and has produced good grades in at least half of them. This means a school record not too far below the middle of the class, at worst. Now that nearly all standard institutions are requiring College Boards or similar types of examinations, the school record has to be backed by test scores placing the student in the middle range of applicants (CEEB scores of 400 or higher). Such a student can be admitted to a standard institution, but he may have to shop for vacancies, particularly if his marks and scores are on the low side and ifhe comes from a part of the country where there are more candidates than vacancies. Thus students in the Northeast often have to go outside their region to get into a standard college, even if they have excellent records. On the other hand, where there is stillroom for expansion, as in the South and parts of the MiddleWest, students may enter some of the standard institutions with records that are relatively weak. Students with poor records or poor programs who still offer unusual qualifications, such as interest in meteorology or astronomy, students who wish to follow unusual programs in college, or students who are otherwise out of pattern will often find it difficult to enter standard institutions. Curiously enough, they may well encounter greater difficulty with such institutions than they would have with many in the preferred category. In otherwords, standard institutions are "standard" in many senses of the word. They take care of the majority of college students, and will continue to, but they do not move much outside ofa fixed pattern. "Easy institutions are by definition nonselective. We can make several generalizations about them: First, any high school graduate can enter an easy institution, regardless of his 1.Q., or his studies in school, or what he hopes to do in college and after. Second, an easy college usually offers a wide range of courses, all the way from a continuation of the general high school course to technical and semiprofessional programs, to the standard college subjects. Third, easy colleges will draw some well-prepared students who later go on to advanced degrees. Fourth, since ea3y colleges are not selective (neither keeping students out nor forcing them out), they must operate so that students will make their own decisions, and thus they must have a strong institutionalemphasis on guidance. Fifth, since one of the most powerful of all selective devices is the charge for tuition, easy colleges tend to charge low, or no, tuition. Sixth, easy colleges are a consequence, nota cause, Continued on pa£e23 6 �JOHN WALKER, ASSISTANT DIRECTOR FOR ADMISSIONS, DISCUSSES THE ACCEPTANCE POLICIES AND PROCEDURES AND WHAT ALUMNI CAN EXPECT IF THEIR OFFSPRING APPLY TO many u.b. — V.B Audiovsal Phot Alumni organizations throughout composed of increasing The the country number of with and daughters apare an sons graduates proaching college age. With the ever increasing emphasis our society is placing on a college education and the constant reference made to the "closing college door", the need to explain the admissions policies and procedures to these graduates has become a responsibility which cannot be shirked. It is primarily to this group of anxious parents I direct thisarticle, although I sincerely hope eachand every alumnus will find encouragement in the admissions policies and in theattitude of theadmissions officers. Those of you who have not visited your campus in recent years will find it greatly changed. From primarily a commuting school the University has grown to be nationally and internationally recog- nized as a dynamic institution of higher learning. Growing on every front the University offers a wide selection of undergraduate and graduate programs. The presence of modern residence facilities, accommodating 1550 students on the campus, means that the alumni who have left the Buffalo area may still encourage their children to consider the University as their first choice for continuing their education. What average is required if they are accepted? What can parents do if their children are rejected? Can students and parents visit the campus and expect to talk with a University representative? These, and many other questions hauntthe average parent and despite the encouragement of high school and college personnel many parents fail to seek the appropriate answers until too late. What follows below I hope will give you a better understanding ofwhat your alma materwill expect ofyour children when they apply as well as what you and your children may expect from us. Campus Visits For most parents, visiting the admissions office of a university is as strange as visiting a new country. While talking with an admissions officer many of the UB questions which are so important to every member of the family are invariably forgotten, but will be remembered again during the trip home. Being aware of this common occurrence, the admissions officer will provide all that information which the circumstances seem to require. However, he must rely on you to provide the particulars of your unique situation. Write your questions down as you think of them. Don't rely on your memory alone. The summer between the junior and senior years in high school is the best timeto begin making visits. By writing in advance you will be sure of having an appointment and, if necessary, receiving information about where you can spend the night. If on a week day youfind yourself unexpectedly in the area without an appointment, an admissions counselor will be available to speak with you. Continued on next pAje 7 �Submitting Applications Your youngsters should be encouraged to visit as many schools as possible before making their choice but, they should make application to no more than three. An application for admission to U.B. and descriptive material is available in the Admissions Counseling Office and may be obtainedby writing to the university. After choosing the schools your youngsters would most liketo attend, their guidance counselors can help them appraise their chances of admissions and select two alternate schools for consideration. At least two of their applications should be submitted early in their senior year. When your children have completed their applications for admission to UB they must submit them to the high school from which they will graduate. The guidance counselor will forward it to the University. An envelope is provided with the application which should be used to submit the application fee. The volume of applications received will not allow us to process an application until it is complete. To be considered complete an application mustcontain the complete high school record, the application fee of $10.00, and in the case of transfer students, official transcripts from all colleges previously attended. — Waiting for the Interview Sally Parkinson from Amherst High School looks over trie Admissions booklet which presents the University and its offerings. About 10,000 students are contacted in interviews and group discussions. Evaluating Credentials As you can see there are variables which may cause a delay inthe admissions decision. In order to make you aware of the status of your youngsters' application we will acknowledge receipt of the application and inform you of any further obligation on your part. You will also be toldwhen you may expect the decision. In many cases we are unaware of circumstances which could assist us in reaching the proper decision. Although we are not staffed to provide personal screening of each applicant, when the situation seems towarrant an interview the student will be asked to make an appointment with an admissions counselor. Qualifications Applicants presenting an acceptable high school or regents average and ranking in the top two-fifths of their class will be considered acceptable if they — Relating Vocational And Academic Objectives The University Catalog gives explicit information on courses and programs of study, but the Admissions Counselor attempts to relate individual abilities with educational goals. 8 are recommended by their high school and space is available. Students ranking inthe third-fifth of their class who present satisfactory averages or whose scores on the Scholastic Aptitude Tests of the College Entrance Examination Board or an equivalent test designated by the University are satisfactory may be considered acceptable. The University has traditionally been committed to the policy of providing broad educational oppor- �tunities of high caliber for those who are qualified and who can benefit from the experience. Students are admitted only if the admissions officer finds reason to believe the candidate capable of completing a degree program. For this reason applicants are sometimes offered alternate programs. Recognizing the uncertainty surrounding a high school graduate's choice of career the admissions officer may place a student in a no-preference area. Professional advisors assist these students in choosing the proper field of study during theirfreshman year. Many students, realizing their own uncertainty, select this program themselves. Border line students may also be offered a two yearprogram similar incontent to themore stringent four-year program originally requested. Satisfactory work in this area may qualify the student to enter a baccalaureate degree program as early as the end of the first semester. When time permits, tests are assigned or summer school attendance is requested as final evidence for consideration. Satisfactory performance in either of these areas may provide thefinal proof necessary to permit a favorable decision. The last alternative offered to residents of the Niagara Frontier is the opportunity of attending Millard Fillmore College. Although this is a nondegree granting division, the course work completed by students while proving their ability to successfully compete at the college level will apply towards their degree programs in day school. After the Decision On the decision date your youngsters will either be notified of their acceptance to the program requested, of their acceptance to a more suitable program, or of their rejection. Whether your youngster is accepted or rejected, the admissions officers' obligation to you does not end. Many hours are devoted to discussing decisions and alternatives with parents whose youngsters have been denied admission. If your youngsters are rejected we welcome the opportunity to assist wherever possible inplanning their future educational experiences as well as discussing the significant factors involved in the decision. Anxieties, quite naturally, exist in the minds of the parents whose youngsters have been accepted to the University. The student faces the transition from high school to college and from teen-ager to adult. For many students this is the first time significant problems will have to be met without the counsel and encouragement of their parents. In order to assist the student in facing these responsibilities the University has available many facilities — Visualizing the Future The Counselor asks the student about alternate plans, knowing full-well that the student's exposure to the diverse offerings of a university sometimes causes him to redefine objectives and goals. ranging from job placement to personal counseling. For example, you as alumni are familiar with the chaos which traditionally hazed students on registration day. Today, incoming freshmen are invited to attend one of a series of summer planning conferences during which they meet their advisor, plan their program for thefreshman year and pre-register for their subjects. No further registration isrequired and additional timemay be spent onfreshman orien- tation acquainting themwith the expanding services of the University and the surrounding community. The service facilities have kept pace with the dynamic physical and academic growth of the University. The identification and development of the individual's unique talents remains the primary objective of the educators and administrators at the University. You may be assured that this primary concern for the individual's welfare will play the major role in theadmission decision. Photos — U.B. Audio-Visual 9 �Vote Vote Amendment Amendment six... SIX... help finance college construction without any state COST! market" better for all, private and public. At the same time, the construction projects will benefit the economy of communities throughout the State. No appropriation of State monies is involved. Eligibility for this program would be determined by institutional appreciation to the State Dormitory Authority and, upon their approval, would be subject further to the endorsement of an audit committee composed of the state Comptroller, the State Commissioner of Taxation and Finance, and the State Superintendent of Banks. With this careful screening, a reliable determination can be made as to the financial integrity and ability of the institution to repay the loan. Since the recent record of colleges inpayment of building bonds is unsurpassed, the possibility of default to the extent that the State would be called upon to honor bonds in default is remote. And even in that case, the Authority retains title to the involved property. The proposal hag the full support of the Association of Colleges and Universities of New York State, composed of 126 private and public institutions of higher education, the Commission of Independent Colleges and Universities, composed of 84 private institutions located in the State, the Board of Regents and the Board of Trustees of the State of New York. In Governor Rockefeller's message to the Legislature, he "earnestly recommended" the adoption of this amendment. He commented: "With respect to such bonds, it is expressly provided that any private institution for which an academic building is constructed from bond funds must assure the Authority of sufficient revenues to pay all interest and principal as well as any sinking-fund payments required by the bond resolution. This feature will assure that the Authority is entirely self-sustaining in its loansto private institution." Three of the University's recently constructed buildings have beenfinanced through Federal Loans —the Tower, Goodyear and presently the new Student Union. In order for this university and other New York institutions of higher learning, to meet the overflow of students, additional residence halls and academic buildings are needed. Chancellor Furnas has been appointed by the Association of Colleges and Universities to spearhead efforts in Western New York for interpreting the proposition to voters.

Its founder and English Editor, Joshua Bierer, was then as now medical director of the Marlborough Day Hospital, and consultant psychiatrist at Runwell Hospital. He was also the honorary medicaldirector of theLondon Institute of Social Psychiatry. More important historically, Dr. Bierer had brought to English psychiatry certain innovationsin whichhe had pioneered. Among these are the Day Hospital for day patients, the Night Hospital for night patients, the self-governing therapeutic social club, and new trends in group psychotherapy, in unlocked, open hospital wards and buildings, in the community clinic atmosphere, and perhaps most of all in the "therapeutic milieu" as a way of restoring the patient's self-esteem and mobilizing his personality assets. Today, when the slightly modified term for all this, —"the therapeutic community"—has become a common phrase, it is well to dateDr. Bierer's pioneering in these various aspects to the 1940 decade, when he made the innovations and published the first book and articles about them. The masthead proclaimed the Journal to be "the new quarterly of interdisciplinary research." The first subscription blanks added only that this was "the first international journal with a common interest for psychiatrists, educationists, psychologists, sociologists, criminologists, anthropologists, and otherworkers in the field of mental healthand social services." Before these steps could be taken, however, Americans Marvin K. Opler and Thomas A. C. Rennie, both on the professorial staff of the Department of Psychiatry of Cornell University Medical College, also worked as organizing editors and developed with Dr. Bierer an Advisory Editorial Board from all the continents of the world, and a United States Editorial group to process contributions from the Americas. Unfortunately, Dr. Rennie fell ill during this early period and he died the following year. The U.S. Editors for the Americas were Dr. Opler of the University of Buffalo, and Francis J. Braceland, then president of the American Psychiatric Association. Today, Dr. Bierer as Editor in Londonreceives all contributions (articles, reviews and news notes) from continents other than North and South America. Dr. Opler receives the contributions from the Western Hemisphere. Dr. Braceland continues as American co-Editor. Associate Editors are D. J. West of Cambridge University and Hans J. Eysenck of the University of London. Assistant Editors include W. H. G. Armytage of the University of Sheffield, D. W. Liddell of St. Francis Hospital in Sussex,A. Irving Hallowell of the University of Pennsylvania, Morris S. Schwartz of Brandeis University, Georgene Seward of the University of Southern California, and Eric D. Wittkower of McGill University. The entireeditorial group therefore includes three psychiatrists, three in the fields of sociology and anthropology, two psychologists, two in thefields of public health and preventive medicine, a criminologist and a professor of education. All are active participants in the multi-disciplinary field of social psychiatry. The International Journal, once centered in London and New York City, now has its chief offices in London and in Buffalo, New York. Yet it is international andcross-cultural inits interestsand efforts. Over a hundred members of the Advisory Editorial Board swell the list of psychiatrists, sociologists, anthropologists, psychologists, public health experts, educators and others in mental health and related fields of social services who work with the Journal. Obviously, then, the Journalisalso multidisciplinary as a consequence. Its contributors include psychiatrists, medical sociologists and anthropologists, psychologists, public health experts, criminologists, educators, historians of medicine, personnel in social services, and social philosophers. Since social psychiatry is defined as the study and prevention of the causes and dynamics of mental illnesses seen intheir socialand cultural environments, the Journalis sensitive to any efforts, ranging from "organic" to therapeutic and social efforts to attack this sizeable modern problem. An optimistic basic tenet of this international and multidisciplinary behavioral science is that social and cultural environments (including the family, social class or cultural environment) are powerful forces producing the kinds and amounts of mental illness existing in the world. Both research efforts and organizational methods — — 11 �could therefore mitigate the enormous cost, waste and sheer unhappiness involved in this practical problem. From modest beginnings a half-dozen years ago, the Journalhasrisen to a unique place of prominence in the scientific literature of the world. It is still unique inthat there is no other international journal of this multidisciplinary range. It has published almost equal proportions of reviews and articles, news of conferences, etc., from such fields of psychiatry, social sciences, psychology and ancillary disciplines. Its readership is therefore polyglot, multidisciplinary and interested in these humane purposes that cut across the arbitrary lines of academic disciplines. Occasionally, articles have appeared in Spanish, French and German, or have been translated from such diverse sources as Norwegian or Thai, although the lingua franca of English serves in more than 90 or 95 percent of the materials. Because of an extremely large circulation in North and South America, Quadrangle Press (an affiliate of the Free Press of Chicago), 119WestLake Street, Chicago 1,Illinoiswill, this January, 1962, take over the advertising tasks of promotion and distribution of the Journal which has, to now, grown through the sheer weight of a world-wide scientific interest, need and purpose. Quadrangle Press has had ample experience in the field of Anglo-American publications since it handles the Tavistock journal publications of London. Editorial matters, however, will continue in the University of Buffalo School of Medicine (Dr. Opler) and the London office of Dr. Bierer, with all American writings processed at the former, and the contributions from Europe, Africa and Australasia going in the latter direction. tributed to its journal, Language. They wanted, however, to have a journal that would not be the organ of any society—they were and continue to be prominent and active members of the LSA —but would provide a place for the publication of short articles of a value that presented special printing difficulties, or dealt with new and untried ideas, or were coachedin less formal or more daring style than was usual in a regular learned society publication. The group discussed the plan by correspondence, and at theannual meeting of the LSA in December, 1941,it was agreed to start the journal. The meeting took place threeweeks after Pearl Harbor, and many doubted the wisdom of any new venture at such a time. But the journal was to be typed and produced from mimeograph stencils, so the decision to go ahead prevailed. An editor was chosen —one of the youngest members of the group—and another member, who had the use of a special typewriter, volunteered to make the stencils. The title Studies in Linguistics was adopted, abbreviated SIL. Shortly after the decision, the chosen editor was drafted (he was able to do a special job involving his linguistic training, was commissioned as a result of it, and is now professor of linguistics and anthropology at a large eastern university). The prime mover of the idea then had to either see the journal die before it was born, or assume the editorship himself. He did so, "temporarily", and he is still editing the journal. He is George L. Trager, professor of Anthropology and Linguistics at the University of Buffalo. Until 1946,Dr. Trager edited the journal almost single-handed, taking it with him from Yale, where he was teaching until 1944, to Washington where he worked for a government agency for two years, and then to the University of Oklahoma. By this time the colleague who had typed the first volumes was too busy, and a local printer who had a special typewriter undertook the job. The format was improved by using photo offset instead of mimeographing. X n 1941 a group of young scholars working in the field of linguistics—the analysis of the structureand functioning of languages as part of human behavior —decided that they would like to have an outlet of a new kind for the publication of reports of their researches. They were all members of the Linguistic Society of America (founded in 1925), and had con- 12 Two years later Dr. Trager went back to Washington and again ran the journal from his study at home, but continued the services of the Oklahoma printer. In 1956 he came to Buffalo, and Studies in Linguistics took on a new lease of life. For most of the early years there was an annual deficit, met twice by donations from colleagues, but usually the deficit came out of the pocket of the editor. At Buffalo he was able to secure assistance from the University, and the budget of the Department of Anthropology and Linguistics carries a small annual subvention for the publication. In 1949 a series of supplements was started, the Occasional Papers. There have been eight of these, �by Trager and Felicia E. Harben (now Mrs. Trager), is used as a text and reference book; OP6, Phonetics: glossary and tables, by Trager, has been sold widely for text use, and will soon need reprinting. OPB, Sign language of the America deaf, by Wm. A. Stokoe, is an epoch making work in its field. The journal and the OPs, since coming to Buffalo, have had stiff paper covers, in a bright blue, with an imprinted masthead with a circular monogram of SIL. Articles on any linguistic subject are printed, and reviews are published, as well as bibliographies and periodic indexes. The circulation is small, but includes a very large proportion of universities and other libraries. Production of the journal is largely a labor of love, done at the University. The Department has a typewriter with changeable type, so that all kinds of special characters are available. Plates are typed and proofed at the Department office. They are sent out by the University print shop to be photographed, and the journal is printed from the films in Hayes Hall. Mailing is done by the Department. Nobody has ever made any money from SIL (the royalties on the OPs don't start until after costs have been repaid!), but everybody connected with it has always had a personal interest in it. The journal has published some highly controversialarticles, and no issue of it goes unnoticed among linguists. One reason is that the editor has always reserved the right to add comments in footnotes to articles, and these often start theoretical fireworks. classification and maps, and a ninth is contracted for. The OPs are paid for by special grants, and SIL acquires some revenue from their sale. These monographs, ranging from eight to eighty pages, are 6x9 inches in size. The journal itself is B%xll page size, and subscriptions cost $3 a volume (usually two issues in one year, but sometimes a volume extends over two years); subscribers receive the OPs, but many extra copies of these are sold. OPI, The field of linguistics, by Dr. Trager, was reprinted twice, once by the Foreign Service Institute of the Department of State; OP3, Outline of English Structure, by Trager and Henry Lee Smith, Jr., chairman of Anthropology and Linguistics at Buffalo, has been taken over by the American Council of Learned Societies and is now in its fourth printing; OPS, North American Indian languages; The Editor wishes to thank Marvin Oplerfor suggesting the foregoing article. Dr. Opler wrote the first section on The International Journal; George Trager relinquished part of his vacation to write about Studies in Linguistics; Marvin Farbercontributed the informationon Philosophy and Phenomenological Research. i. he quarterly journal, Philosophy and Phenomenological Research, was published by the University of Buffalo from 1940 until June 1961, under the editorship of Marvin Farber. It was the historical successor of Edmund Husserl's famous Jahrbuch fur Philosophic und Phanomenologische Forschung, which suspended publication with the coming of Hitler in 1933. Although the journal continued to publish articles on phenomenology, italso functioned as a general organ of philosophical research. Space was provided for articles and discussions representing the various major trends of philosophic thought, in all countries. Notable symposia on meaning and truth, probability, and educational philosophy were published, as well as the proceedings of two InterAmerican congresses. The journal was sent to more than 60 countries, and was available in all important universities and libraries. Now that Dr. Farber has moved to the University of Pennsylvania, the journal will be published there. 13 �CATALOGING THE COACHES■Autumnal madness they call itAugust 30th, the date upon which the 50-60 Varsity hopefuls report to campus for an evening meal, room assignments and squad meeting. The morning of August 31st is devoted to equipment issue while the afternoon is reserved for press and University photographers. September Ist is usually the day that commences two-a-day workouts fT^HE FINAL PLAYS of the last footJ_ ball game are eating up the clock as AlAlumnus and Fred Fan give in to the wishes of their better halves and head for the car to beat the Saturday twilight rush for home. There are lots of things to do—like feeding the kids, bathing the kids, bedding the kids and greeting the "sitter" before the evening's social commitments. There's one pause on the way to the parking lot just long enough to shake the hand of the head coach and mentally wish they had this guy's job. After all. there are just nine or ten games and then he can — rest. Nothing could befarther from the actual case. While businessmen re- 14 spect the well-worn phrase, "Time is money", so do the executives of Buffalo's popular firm...

Incidentally, the coaches take up residence with the players during the preseason weeks which brings on added duties and loneliness for their families. hamer & Associates. Messrs. Dick Offenhamer, Ron Laßocque, Bob Deming. Jim Royer, Buddy Ryan and Dewey Wade constitute a yearround team whose hiring, firing, training, manufacturing, sales, accounting andmarketing activitiesare presented to the public over a short two-month period. What of the rest of their schedule ? During the academic year, Dick Offenhamer bears the duties of Assistant Professor of Physical Educa- tion while his assistants conduct classes as instructors in Physical Education. Perhaps the best place to begin is As for the season itself, there are nine or ten consecutive weeks of sunshine, rain. snow. hail, ulcers, nervousness, hotel accommodations, planes, trains, busses and assorted joys and jolts about which too much has already been written. Oh yes, we must not forget the all-day. Sunday meetings of the coaches to view the (ilms of Saturday's game. When the season ends -won. lost or drawn the annual planning meeting for the next season is held during the first Monday morning, because that's the kind of organizer "Ofh'e" is. Then begins the activity of which few fans ever hear. The mail is opened, including several hundred letters from high school �and it's reflected in the poses of the coaches on the sidelines! I "You Sandwiched in between class- about U.B. and the possibility of playing for the Bulls. Each receives apersonal reply and—in many cases —the boy is personally contacted by the coach assigned to the prospect's geographical location.

Spring practice can be abbreviated dueto rain, mud, cold, etc.with some manpower sacrificed to baseball, track and other Spring sports. Juneand July are additional mail, phone and travel monthswith many of the prospective football freshmen still not certain which school they willattend. Any coachwill tell you, tern according to player talent and limitations. One week is spent correlating, condensing and editing the system's strategy into players'books which are issued for pre-practice memorization. Well, we've run the gamut of annual activity and, excepting the banquet trail, it has all been daytime duty. During practice periods every player and every coachattends strategy meetings every night after a day which leaves manyof them sagging with exhaustion. Thereal payoff for "paying the price" comes when two or three of the coaches miss a whole season's competition while scouting the opponents. All they see are thefilms. BmEverett — —— Sketches Murray Olderman Photos U.B. Audio-Visual 15 �A FAMOUS ALUMNUS lord o'beian once described himself as a plain "work-a-day lawyer who has stuck to the lawfor better or worse," but thefact is he is a leading authority on constitutional law who has argued cases before the Supreme Court for more than five decades and served a string of federal posts under five different presidents, bothRepublican and Dem- tohn t) ocratic administrations. Born in the old First Ward in Buffalo in 1874 where his family had lived since early in the century, John received his early education at Central High School where he later taught while attending the Law School. He graduated from Harvard University in 1896,and returned to his native city for his law studies. He received his degree in 1898, and began practice in the firm, O'Brian and Hamlin. Throughout his practice he has been called upon to wear the robe of public service. He served as US Attorney, Western New York, under Presidents TheodoreRoosevelt, Taft and Wilson. During World War I he became head of the War Division of the Department of Justice, responsible for espionage trials, internment of alien enemies, the complete control of the process of arrest in conspiracies, and close connection with the secret service. It was during this time that he appointed J. Edgar Hoover to his first job in the justice department. In 1929 he was named Ist assistant in charge of anti-trust prosecution by President Hoover. His most famous case concerned the Tennessee Valley Authority which Franklin D. Roosevelt's New Deal lost in a district court. The President asked him to defend the government's position in the Circuit Court of Appeals and the Supreme Court. He won a tremendous victory. As David Lawrence wrote (Feb. 19, 1936) "The TVA decision marks the beginning of the end of "brain trust lawyers". For the New Deal won because it hired as a special counsel a man who knew the law and the constitution, and he was invitedinto the case notwithstanding thefact that he was a Republican and an appointee of President Hoover, namely John Lord O'Brian of Buffalo, N. Y." During World War 11,President Roosevelt recalled the prominent attorney again to Washington, this time to serve as general counsel to the War Production Board. 16 It was for this outstanding job that Mr. O'Brian received one of his most impressive honors in a long list, the Medal of Merit for service to country. Among his other awards are the Chancellor's Medal, presented to him in 1940,"not for a specific act or a single accomplishment, but for a life of eminent service to City, State, and Nation which has justly brought you high personal distinction and has dignified Buffalo in the eyes of the world". Just eleven years later, the General Alumni Board presented the Samuel Paul Capen Award of which he has always been very proud. It seems he had been chairman of the Committee which persuaded Chancellor Capen to come to Buffalo in 1920,and he felt it a very great honor to receive the Award named for Dr. Capen. Renowned as an educator having served on the Board ofRegents, New York State, for eleven years, a member of the University Council for twenty-six years, and the Board of Overseers of Harvard University for four years, Mr. O'Brian has received honorary degrees from various institutions of higher learning, among them Harvard, Yale, Hobart, Syracuse, Brown, and Brooklyn Polytechnic Institute. He taught medical jurisprudence in the Medical School for ten years, and insurance, in the Law School for fourteen years. In 1955 he delivered the famous Godkin Lectures at Harvard University. Although John Lord O'Brian has taken up permanent residence in Washington, and is a member of the firm Covington & Burling, he still represents his alma mater at various inaugurations of university presidents, and his many friends can count on seeing his name in the headlineswherever they are located. Just last year the Fellows of the American Bar Association honored him for fifty years of service to the nationand world, and he and his wife, theformer Alma E. White, celebrated their Golden Anniversary not so long ago. They have five children, thirteen grandchildren, and five great grandchildren. An editorial in the Buffalo Evening News, (June 6,1946) best sums up thisfamous alumnus: "Among the distinguished company to receive honorary degrees at Harvard University's 295th commencement was JohnLord O'Brian of Buffalo. Others were Gen. Dwight D. Eisenhower, Gen. H. H. Arnold, Gen. Alexander A. Vandergrift and Admiral Chester W. Nimitz. Honorary degrees inabsentia were awarded to Gen. Douglas MacArthur and Gen. George C. Marshall... "John Lord O'Brian belonged in that company. He has had a long and honorable career as a lawyer, a leader in civic enterprises and a public servant in two wars". �..

Approximately 22 representatives of various Law classes met with Dean Hyman and Mr. Siekmann to consider the reorganization. 18 Current advances in the Law School plus changes to come with the merger of the University with the State were discussed by the Dean. One important change mentioned, for example, was the growth of the School and the possibility of a move to the Campus. He estimated that within five or six years, enrollment would reach 250 students (present figures are 180). With all the foreseen changes, the Dean called for a closer knit alumni group. It was suggested that a general meeting be held later this Fall for the purpose of celebrating the 75th anniversary of the founding of the School, and getting the reaction of more alumni in regard to the reorganization. ** * the team Alumni fans in areas where football games have been played have rallied to the support of the team.

MACDONALD The University's first dean ofwomen, Lillias M. Macdonald, 75, died August 27, 1961 in Millard Fillmore Hospital after a long illness. A native of Buffalo, Miss Macdonald was dean from 1922 to 1952. Until 1956 she was assistant to the director of alumni relations. It was during her tenure as dean that Miss Macdonald advocated the establishment of residence halls. When she retired, ground was broken for the first dormitory, named in her honor, the Lillias M. Macdonald Residence Hall for Women. "With her passing," said Dr. Claude E. Puffer, Vice-Chancellorfor Business Affairs and Treasurer, "Macdonald Residence Hall becomes a memorial to a woman who devoted her life and all her energies to the education and welfare of the young .This belovedmember of the university family will always be with us in spirit." . �ACMCEPTANCE backs. For this is reading that will do more than any coaching courses to improve test scores and itwill at the same time improve preparation for college studies, which coaching courses do not do. (Continuedfrom page6) of enlarged demandfor higher education.Evenwhen they offer programs which a few years ago would not have been considered as college work, they do so in response to demand. And the demand is increasing. Total enrollment in higher education in 1970will be about double that of today, and it may well be that this type of institution will account for from onethird to one-half of that total. The number and size of these institutions will increase, and they will become widely distributed throughout the country, instead of being concentrated on the Pacific coast and in the Middle West as they are now. Thus in 1970it will still be possible for any student to enter 2. The needfor parents to make financial preparation for college. College is a costly business. The preferred colleges cost about $3,000 a year, and of course this comes out of net income after taxes have been paid. For most families with children in college, it represents gross income of at least $4,000. Referring back to the average span of six years' attendance for students who enter a preferred college, the family of such a student must dedicate $24,000 of gross income for his college expenses. Notlong ago, a survey showed that half of a group of parents who expected their children to go to college did not know the costs of college and were not making any preparations to meet those costs. The lesson is obvious. Parents who are notready to deal with college costs are failing in a vital area of support. Urging a child to study so that he can get a scholarship may pay off, but it is a poor substitute for a family plan for the financing of the child's education. 3. The need to choose a college in terms of the child's abilities and interests. Much is made of the problem of choosing colleges, and great effort goes into the process of choice. But theresults, if judged by the turmoil thatattends the annual selections, fall far short of expectations. The difficulty seems to lie in the placing of emphasis on the college, not the student. When the application is sent in, the parent often knows more about the merits of the college to which the application is going than he doesabout the applicant as an applicant. Naturally it is difficult for a parent to be objective about his own child.But enough is now known about evaluating abilities and achievements that any parent who really wants to may view his child as the childwill be viewed by the college. Such an evaluation is neither so difficult nor so time consuming as the processes parents often go through in evaluating colleges. And since it relies on standard academic information, it involves little or no cost. Yet itsvalue is inestimable. For if the choice of college is made in terms of the child's capabilities, the first and most important step has been taken toward placing the childin the college that seems best for him. And this in turn is the best for him. And this in turn is the best insurance for a successful college career. college. To Sum up, then, the answer to our first question is that a student's chances of getting into college are excellent provided that he is able and willing to do what is necessary to prepare himselffor the college he would like to enter, or that he is willing to enter the college that is willing to accept him. Let's Turn now to our second question: What can I as a parent do to improve my child's chances of getting into the college that seems best for him? This is one of the standard, rather heavy questions for which there are already available a great many standard, rather heavy answers, dealing with the desirability of the good life, the need for stableparents and othervalid but unenlightening pronouncements. But some of the problems raised by this question do not yield to standard answers. Three such problems, or needs, deserve our attention: 1. The needfor parents to promote thinking, learning and reading. Colleges, particularly the preferred colleges, are bookish places. They emphasize reading and discussion as stimuli to learning and thinking instead of stressing note-taking and the study of text-books to accumulate facts. College entrance tests are built in part to measurereading skills. And the studentwith the habit of reading will do better work in college than the student who relies on studying text books and memorizing facts. The habit of reading is mostly easily formed at home. It can be formed by the presence and discussion of books. This means, for example, that the fifty dollars that parents often spend on coaching for college entrance tests can better be spent over two years in the collection of fifty or sixty "highbrow" paper- — — The author, Frank H. Bowles, has been director, and is now president, of the College Entrance Examination Board since 1948. Currently Mr. Bowles is in Paris, at the office of UNESCO, on a two-year assignment of great interest.

KOCH Alumnus George Ellis writes some personal notes CLUBNOTES-CLASSNOTES DEATHS GRID QUIZ Facts on football THE EARLY CAMPUS Cover Design — Angelo M. Biondi, BA '57 Second in a series of old campus photographs �the Psychiatrcclinic . .. PSYCHIATRIC TREATMENT has become quite acceptable, if not fashionable, in some groups in the past years. However while many people have come to heed the danger signals in disturbed adults, especially in the later years, it is still not recognized that mental problems can arise at any age. Thus many children who suffer from serious maladjustments are not given the care they require. To helpyou understand the functioning of a child psychiatric clinic, Dr. Albert V. Cutter, the chief psychiatrist and medical director of the United Fund supported agency, The Psychiatric Clinic, 57 Linwood Ave., explains in the following pages the process of diagnosis and treatment of an eleven-year old neurotic child, named Sally The Psychiatric Clinic, Inc. has been in operation since 1937. The present phase of clinic work began in 1951 when Dr. Cutter set about the re-organization and development of the clinic. A staff has been built up to include a part-time psychiatrist; David Hallowitz as Chief Psychiatric Social Worker (Assistant Director); and two staff caseworkers; with Shepard Goldberg, Ph. D. as Chief Clinical Psychologist " 3 �and one staff psychologist. The clinic is affiliated with the University of Buffalo Schools of Medicine, Social Work, and Psychology for teaching and training. In addition, the clinic is recognized by the American Association of Psychiatric Clinics for Children as a training clinicfor child psychiatrists. To meet this qualification, the clinic must maintain high professional standards and qualitatively highReferrals to the clinic are made by doctors, grade service. schools, social agencies, and others, or parents may apply on their own. Children of all ages are accepted. There is no lower age limit. The upper age limit is sixteen to seventeen years. The symptoms most commonly stated on referral are poor school achievement despite adequate intelligence, a host of bodily symptoms for which no physical basis can be found, temper tantrums and rebellious behavior, anti-social acting out (delinquency), soiling beyond the expected age, bedwetting, night terrors and other sleep disturbances, tics and mannerisms, speech disturbances. These and manyother symptoms are seen in various combinations. There are many variations in the arrangements for cases for diagnosis and treatment. These vary from that of the child (usually an adolescent) being seen in individual treatment while the parents may not be seen very infrequently, to where the parents and child are seen together with a therapist in a family unit treatment process. The approach presented in the case of Sally and her parents is a common one. The clinic offers, also, a parent (as couples) group treatment program. If in the course of diagnosis it is felt that additional studies are needed, for example, speech and hearing diagnosis, neurological examination, brain wave tracing, X-rays, blood studies and so forth, referral is made to physicians and to hospital laboratories and clinics. The clinic is available to any parent in the community. The average fee is $5.00 per family per week. This fee is decided after discussion of the family's present income and financial commitments, and in weighing the possible length of time they need to come to the clinic. " " " by l[ THE FOR DISTURBED albert v. cutter HELP CHILD Sally was given a group of toys and asked to use them in telling an exciting story. Dr. Cutter, the chief psychiatrist of the Clinic, listens as Sally shows imagination and ability in creating a family situation. 4 �The parents tell of their bewilderment with Sally's symptoms. They had tried to be understanding, at times became very frustrated and angry, at times they ignored, coaxed, bribed, and tried force. The social worker, psychologist, and psychiatrist analyse the entire family environment. Y HEAD hums and I get stomachaches and feel "I\/T IVJ. sick most every morning. My mother says it's because I'm afraid of something at school. Sometimes I get sick and can't go." The foregoing was Sally's response to the question of why her mother and father had come with her to The Psychiatric Clinic, Inc. Sally, an eleven year old girl, was being seen in a neuropsychiatric consultation as part of the clinic's determination of how to be helpful to her and her family. Throughout this one and one-half hour interview, as long as Sally was very friendly and talkative the psychiatrist talked with her about her likes at play, her hobbies, her brother and sister.When questions or comments related to her motherand father, or to school and going away from the home, she became quiet, anxious, and said little. Her mood was depressed. At one point in the interview, she said that her head hurt like it did mornings. Sally was given a group of toys and asked to use these in telling an exciting story. She showed excellent imagination and ability in using the toys and in telling the story. Her story was as follows: "The mother is in the kitchen getting supper ready. The children are playing in the living room and now the father comes home. He sits inthis chair. He says, 'I feel very tired.I hurtright here (points to chest). Run and tell your mother'.

Sally was given a physical and neurological examination to rule out possible medical problems. Sally's mother called the clinic on therecommendation of the school teacher. In talking with one of the social workers on the phone, Mrs. S. related that the school was concerned because of Sally's poor attendance in recent months, her complaining frequently of headachesand of feeling sick. She tended to become very quiet, to have no spirit, and was unable to do her schoolwork. A bright girl, Sally was dependable and a leader in her fifth grade class. Now, over half way through the sixth grade, Sally seemed unable to function. The teacher tried very hard to understand and to help Sally, but to no avail. After the return to school after the recent Christmas holidays, Sally began to complain of the headaches, stomach aches, and feeling sick. The holiday season, according to the mother, had been extremely pleasant for Sally and for thefamily. Thus, she was at a loss to account for the onset of the symptoms. These were present when Sally faced going to school, to Sunday School, to parties, out to play with friends, and when it was suggested that sherun errands to the neighborhood store. She went easily to visit grandparents, but remained close to her parents and refused to go out and play with her brother and sister and cousins. The parents were bewildered bySally's symptoms. Theyhad tried to be understanding, at timesbecame very frustrated and angry, at times they ignored, coaxed, bribed and had tried force. When the parents asked Sally what seemed to be the matter, she responded simply, "I don't know." Continued —» 5 �HELP FOR THE DISTURBED CHILD The social worker requested that the mother have reports from the family physician and the school teacher sent to the clinic. When these were received, the appointment for the consultation was arranged. While Sally met with the child psychiatrist, the parents were seen in consultation with a staff social worker. With the prehminary information at hand, the social worker helped the parents to talk over aspects of the present illness, important events in their and Sally's lives, and possible factors which might have contributed to the upset. Uncovering Sally's past... Birth and early development were said to have been normal. At around five years of age, Sally went through a period of eight months in which she was excessively afraid of the dark and caused a parent to lie down with herwhile she went to sleep. Following frequent terrifying dreams, she slept in the parents' bedroom. Several times Sally ran in from play as iffrightened by something. This period of disturbance coincided with the birth of Susan, now five years old. The mother had been very ill during this pregnancy and spent considerable time in bed. A few weeks after the birth, the mother had had inflammation of the liver, was jaundiced, and hospitalized several times for possible surgeryfor small gall stones which she continued to pass. She had not felt "up to par" for years and had frequent tension headaches. Sally cried and pleaded not to go tokindergarten. For a few days she refused to go. After a week or so, her upset ceased and she seemed to make a happy adjustment. While in the second grade, she had the measles. For a few days after returning to school, she complained of not feeling well and again requested to stay at home. This over, she seemed to accept going to school, and showed no evidence of fears. Thefather, forty-three yearsof age, had attended night school from time to time, trying thus to complete his college degree. He worked under terrific pressure as a salesclerk and part-time department manager. Two years back, he had been hospitalized for a possible heart attack. Extensive studies failed to show heart disease. The physician felt that the symptoms were on the basis of emotional stress. This year, during the sales rush between Thanksgiving and Christmas, he had again had symptoms. These were again on the increase in the few weeks prior to coming to the clinic for the consultation. Mrs. S. was very concerned, but had been unable to persuade him to go to the doctor. He refused, saying that he was sure that the symptoms were due to his worry and concern about Sally. The parents could see no relationship between their health problems and the symptoms shown by Sally. Rather, they 6 Dr. Goldberg, the clinical psychologist, analyses Sally's personality through the Rorschach test, in which she is supposed to tellwhat is suggested to her by a series of ink blot designs of various shapes. The responses are then analysed and interpreted. When the evaluation is completed, the staff meets in conference, discussing the total family and arriving at recommendations. related, Sally seemed to really blossom when one or the other of the parents was sick. She, in a very mature way, took on many responsibilities and seemed adult. Further, the father and mother could see no basis for the disturbance in Sally, as arising from their relationship with each other or with Sally. They had a very happy marriage despite the hardships arising from the illnesses. Diagnosing her case... At the close of the consultation, the psychiatrist and the social worker met to discuss the case and to decide on next steps. The opinion expressed was that Sally was suffering from a childhood neurosis as a result of her parents who reacted to stress in neuro- �home. On her second visit to the clinic, she refused to go alone with the psychologist and her mother accompanied her to the office. The mother sat just outside of the office. Sally called to her several times and if the mother failed to respond immediately, the child bounded out of the office to reassure herself that the mother was there. On tests designed to get a picture of personality, Sally was very guarded and seemingly dealt with them in a matter offact way. She gave very few responses to the ink blots. She refused cards where she could not think of an immediate response. She threw one card aside, stating, "It's not a picture of anything. It's just a mess." Photos — Sig De Kany On the picture story-telling test, she refused several cards and her stories generally were bland. The psychologist noted how tenaciously Sally tried to hide her feelings and to maintain control when stimulated by the pictures. She told of her dislike for horror movies, of her avoidance of T-V programs which showedviolence and death. Helping her On Sally's personality test, she was very guarded. She gave few responses to the ink blots, refused cards when she couldn't think of a response immediately, and threw one card away, saying, "It's not a picture of anything. It's justa mess." The Clinic offered the parents a treatment program, and play therapy for Sally. After 16 months, recovery was complete. tic patterns and with physical symptoms. A full psychological evaluation was recommended to determine Sally's intelligence, to determine what the existent emotional problems were doing to her use of her intelligence, to find out if there were any specific learning disabilities, and to assess aspects of the emotional disturbance. Studying her personality ... Sally met with a clinical psychologist in a series offive weekly interviews. A variety of psychological tests were administered. She had bright normal intelligence, but was very erratic in performance because of her anxiety. In theface of threat to possible failure on test items, she became tremulous, cried, said that she was not feeling well, and asked to go recover... The evaluation completed, the clinic diagnosticians met in conference to discuss the total family and to arrive at recommendations. The findings of the clinical psychologist confirmed the impressions of the psychiatrist and added further understandings of Sally and her relationship to her parents. There was unanimous agreement that the clinic should offer to the parents a treatment program for themselves and play therapy for Sally. Inaddition, there would be a contact with the school to help the teacher to better understand Sally. The family doctor would be informed of the findings and the suggestion madethat he place Sally on mildmedication to allay her anxiety and to improve her sleep pattern. The diagnosticians met with the parents to discuss thefindings andrecommendations. The parents were beginning to see a relationship between the birth of the children, their own illnesses, and the phobic patterns presented by Sally. They also evidenced an awareness that the more upset they had becomeabout Sally, the more her anxieties mounted and the more serious the symptoms became. This frightened the parents more and their own physical symptoms increased. The parents had noted that when one or the other of them was sick, Sally was upset, and tended to keep herself extremely busy as if to keep her mind preoccupied with school and other matters. Through this compulsive-likeactivity, she quickly seemed to adjust to the situation. However, with the current upset, she had not shown this capacity for recovery and the pattern of upset had shown steady progression. The parents saw themselves as highly nervous, "neurotic", people. Mrs. S. felt that Sally was too much like her. She hadfeared Continued on page 17 7 �HOME SWEET HOMECOMING I found when just a college lad, Homecoming games quite sporting But it amused me more to watch The old Alums cavorting.

Photos: Robert Mass 9 �YOUR CHILD PREPARES FOR COLLEGE Not Long ago, the head of a large testing agency told college educated parents of college bound students: "Enough is now known about evaluating individual abilities and achievements so that any parent who really wants to may view his child as the child will be viewed by the college." Now this advice seems to be sound and simple. After all, you do receive regular reports from schools on your child's achievement in each subject. National agencies which offer standardized tests provide with the individual test results a manual of interpretation, so that you may know not only your child's scores, but how these compare with state or national groups of students. You and your child can also discover through material in the school guidance office information on the range of test scores in freshman classes at many colleges. In spite of all this information, you can't think as an Admission Committee thinks, you can't outguess an Admission Committee, and if you try you may expose your child and yourself to needless disappointment. This counsel to think as an Admission Committee thinks reminds me of the advice I received once in a deer hunting lodge on the night before the opening of the deer season, when a veteran deer hunter explained to me that "the way to get a deer is to think like a deer." His elaboration of this philosophy was so convincing that I asked and received permission to hunt with him the next day. What a time we had! He studied the wind, the ground, the trails, and then he explained to me how with such weather conditions the deer would probably do this. He stationed me on one old log and he went in another direction. To make a long story short, I heard a lot of shooting around me; I saw a few deerkilled by other hunters, but the expert and I never saw a deer. Apparently some deer were thinking as humans think. Here are some of the reasons why you can't think as an Admission Committee thinks: 1. Admission Committees act differently each year according to the quantity and "quality" of applicants and the needs of the institutions involved. The ever swelling host of candidates has brought rapid changes in admission standards at every institution. 2. The weight given marks and test scores varies so much among institutions that even veteran school counselors hesitate to make firm predictions on individual cases. I have heard admission officers for Yale, Wellesley and Harvard state that test scores do not have the importance they once had in selection procedures. The reason is that at the most popular institutions too many candidates look alike when measured by either marks or test scores. 3. You can't know from year to year how much weight admission committees will give to certain Copyright 1961 10 by Editorial Projects lor Education. Inc. All right, re—nrod. �11 �other factors: i.e., school and geographical distribution, extra-curricular achievement in art, music, drama, sports or community service, and occupational choice (some institutions limit the number in a class who want medicine, engineering, math or science). 4. You may be able to understand the strengths and weaknesses of your college bound child, but you can't know the quantity and quality of the other candidates at the college chosen by your child. At co-educational colleges girls often meet higher competitive admissions standards than boys—and within a university some schools have higher entrance requirements than others. Whether your child is accepted or rejected at any college depends not only on his credentials, but even more on how his credentials compare with those of the other applicants. What then can you dowhen you want to help your child prepare for college when you want to guide your child to an institution that will stimulate him fully? — This program should be started as soon as your child begins to talk and read. Most children are born with a full measure of curiosity. They want to know what is going on about them and, as you know, the early years are filled with "What?" and "Why?" and "Where?" If you have the time and the patience to answer these questions, you will nourish this curiosity that is the tap root of all learning. Only the curious learn. Your child won't be many years old before you will encounter the first question you can't answer. You can shrug your shoulders and say, "Go away and stop bothering me." or "I don't know." or "Let's find out." If you have the time and patience to lead your child in his probe of the unknown, in his search for knowledge, you will encourage the maintenance of a habit of inquiry. You may also rediscover for yourself the fun of learning. But this nourishment of curiosity means that a mother cannot be too occupied with community affairs, social teas or bridge parties, and that on some mornings she may have to leave the beds unmade or the dishes unwashed until naptime, and Dad may have to miss a golf game. Priorities must be established. Today there are so many forces working against the development and maintenance of curiosity in a child, forces likethe radio, television,the automobile and hundreds of sporting events. All too often curiosity is throttled by spectatoritis, by parents who are too busy, and even, alas, by the rigidities of the school system and the desire of teachers to cover a certain amount of material so that students will do well on their tests. Yourreading will supplement his reading and your learning will mesh with his so that you will be in a position to stimulate his further learning by your answers to his questions. Learning becomes even more fun when it is shared by all members of the family. 12 �Your Child Prepares The child who isa natural reader presents no great problems. If your family includes a non-reader you have a special problem, but one which can sometimes be solved by introducing him to books which feed his natural interests. A librarian will help you select books which dealwith baseball,with the mechanical world, with birds or animals, and, later on, books on electronics, chemistry, music or art. Once your child has learned the fun of reading in the field of bis special interest, there is a chance that he can be led into an exploration of other fields. You may wonder at this point why I have said nothing about marks and test scores. The omission of these two tyrannies is intentional. When learning is in its rightful place, marks and test scores follow learning. Today so much emphasis is placed on the difficulty of winning admission to college and on the importance of tests and marks that all too often marks and tests have become the goals of learning rather than the by-products. When marks and test scores are madethe primary target of learning, real learning is lost. The school report cards give you an opportunity to place marks in proper perspective. Instead of asking "What did you get?", try, "What have you learned?" An approach like this as preparation for college helps your childto understand that learning is some- thing he doeswhere he is and that all about him are people and books which will help him learn. Under such a program your child will see that bis understanding of the world does not depend on whether he is in Boston, or in San Francisco, or in Yankton, but on how much advantage he takes of the opportunities around him. If your child is reared in this manner, neitherhe nor you will worry about whether he gets into Harprice, Dartyale or Calford, but only for College that he gets to a college where he can talk to teachers, where he can read books, where he can work in the laboratory. And now you may want to say, "Yes, but he may not get into a good college. He may not get into the best college. He may not get into my college." Actually, no one knows what a good college is. No one knows which colleges are best. Harvard does have more graduates in Who's Who than any other institution, but considering the human materialthat has poured into Cambridge, Massachusetts, from all over theworld for centuries, why doesn't Harvard have twice as many graduates in Who's Who as it does? Harvard could be doing a very poor job educationally and yet seem to be the top educational institution because of the intellectual drive and ability of the students who go there. The head of the Department of Religion at Yale University is not a Yale man. He camefrom Dakota Wesleyan. Thehead ofall health services at Harvard is not a Harvard man. He came from the University of West Virginia. The former president of Princeton was not a Princeton man, but a graduate of Grove City College in Pennsylvania. The misery and torture of today's college admission comes because parents have taught their children to think that learning is a matter of geography; that learning can take place only incertain institutions. The wise parent who has created in his child a desire to learn will approach the whole problem of college admission with one philosophy: "Go where you can get in, my son, andknow that a great opportunity awaits you to discover more about people, more about ideas, more about things—more knowledge than you will ever master in the four years you are in college". When this approach to college admission is taken by an entire family there can he no heartbreaking letters in the mail, no crushed egos, nothing but delight at any letter that brings news ofaacceptance, news than an adventure inlearning liesahead. 13 �Hochstetter Hall by ROBERT CONQUEST Outside, scores of squirrels are scampering round the campus Asthe leaves fall one by one, a smoky gold.

October 6,1961 �Fifth in a series devoted to recognizing achievements of Alumni Time referred toAmerican Medical Association President Charles Gordon Heyd as Canada-born and educated (Nov. 9, 1936), Bill Cook, then alumni secretary, rushed offa kind letter to set everyonestraight: "It is true that Dr. Heyd was graduated from the University of Toronto in 1905, but he later entered the University of Buffalo,received his doctor's degree there in 1909, and since has pursued a career of which both his Alma Maters are justly proud." "As a student, he sat at the feet of such greats and near-greats as Charles Cary (medicine), Matthew D. Mann (obstetrics and gynecology), Roswell Park (surgery), Herbert U. Williams (bacteriology and pathology), Delancey Rochester (medicine), James A. Gibson (anatomy), Lucien Howe (opthalmology), Grover and Ernest Wende (dermatology), Irving M. Snow (pediatrics) and John Lord O'Brian (medical jurisprudence)." Not since that time has anyone forgotten that Dr. Heyd studied at the University of Buffalo. He has made sure of that himself for throughout his career as a surgeon and teacher, he has given unstintingly of his time to hisalma mater. He established the NewYork City Area Alumni Club and was its first representative to the General Alumni Board. He has served as trustee of the School of Medicine Alumni Association, and during the Centennial Fund Campaign and the Development Program Campaign he was a leader and worker in New York City. Following graduation, Dr. Heyd took graduate work at Harvard and Johns Hopkins hospitals; in the summer of 1913 he studied in London and Vienna. He served his internship on a two-year general rotating service at the New York Post-Graduate Hospital. In 1912 When — A FAMOUS ALUMNUS he became the first surgical resident there, the next year he was a lecturer in surgery, then he was appointed head of the Department of Surgery on the Cadaver, and in 1917 he was named adjunct attending surgeon. After three and a half years in the practice of surgery, he entered the Army with the rank of captain, served inthe Picardy, Marne, Argonne and St. Mihiel campaigns, and was honorably discharged with the rank of major in January, 1919. He was the commanding officer of Mobile Hospital No. 7 at the time he finished his war service. He returned to New York and re-entered the practice of surgery and in 1923 became a member of theBoard of Trustees of the New York Post-Graduate Medical School Columbia University, and was appointed attending surgeon and professor of surgery in the same institution,a post he still holds. He is also consulting surgeon Women's Hospital, NYC; Greenwich Hospital, Greenwich, Conn.; Dover General Hospital, Dover, N. J.; Morristown Memorial Hospital, Morristown, N. J., and Midtown Hospital, NYC. Dr. Heyd has published in various medical journals of the United States and abroad over 130 surgical papers, dealing largely with disease of the gall bladder, colon, goiter, and infections of the neck, and many contributions on the economicand social aspects of the practice of medicine. He was co-author of "Outline of Preventive Medicine," 1922, and was co-author with Dr. Ward J. MacNeal and John A. Killian of "The Liver and Its Relation to — Chronic Abdominal Infection" which was given as a Baaumont Foundation Lecture, at Detroit, Michigan 1924. In 1932he was the chairman of the Delegation from the United States to the International Congress on Gall Bladder Disease, held in Vichy, France. His chief contribution, however, was in his observation and elaboration of a clinical concept "Liver Deaths" —an hepato-renal syndrome." This contribution refers to deaths taking place after operation on the biliary tract or following a traumatic injury to the liver. Dr. Heyd was the first to advance the concept of "liver deaths" as a post-operative complication. Aside from his professional work, Dr. Heyd has been very much interested in the organization phases of medicine and surgery and served with distinction as officers in the following organizations: Editor, New York PostGraduate Medical Journal during 1912-14; vice-president, American College of Surgeons; treasurer, president, Medical Society of the State of New York; president, Medical Society of the County of New York; president, Canadian Society. Among the honors Dr. Heyd hasreceived are: Legion of Honor, France, in 1932; honorary degree of doctor of medical science, Temple University, 1937; LLD, University of Toronto, 1953. Twice the University has honored Charles Gordon Heyd. The first time was in 1951when he was presented a citation in medicine. Three years later he received the Capen Award which is the highest award presented to an alumnus from the General Alumni Board. When G. Thomas Ganim, then himself a past recipient of the Award, presented the esteemed plaque, he best summed up all alumnifeelings towards thisfamous alumnus: "Despite the distance separating himfrom Buffalo, Continued on page 17 15 �HAVE YOU HEARD... completed Installation of $86,000 computer brain, operating punched A lightning-fast electronic cards that program mathematical problems has been completely installed in the Engineering Building.

It continues the two semester pattern that has characterized the University's academic year in the past but makes modifications in the beginning and ending dates. By beginning classes shortly after Labor Day, instruction can be completed prior to Christmas recess and students will take final examinations immediately following that recess. Second semester will begin on January 18 and the semester will end prior to Decoration Day. Commencement in 1963 will be on June 2.

Shefelt badly because they had not sought help when Sally was five years old. However, repeatedly through the years, just as the mother reached the point of taking the step toward seeking help, Sally would seem better. She felt that the same might have happened again had not the school and the family doctor insisted upon the parents looking into the matter. The parents were greatly relieved that there was no evidence of serious mental illness and that the prognosis was seen as very hopeful. They readily accepted the treatment plan. After a brief waiting period (two weeks) during which clinic arrangements were made and during which Sally was started on medication, therapy began as planned. Both parents — child receive therapy The motherand father met together with a therapist and became the more deeply involved in further consideration of their emotional health problems. At first Sally was extremely inhibited in weekly play therapy interviews. She spoke very little, appeared dejected, and sat in a chair, head bowed. However, after several weeks she showed a lessening of her inhibitionand depression, aided by the medication and the familiarity with the clinic and the psychiatrist. She was attending school regularly even though she complained of headachesand a queer feeling inher stomach. She began talking about nonupsetting happenings and soon began to play with doll furniture and doll figures, much as she had in acting out the exciting scene during the consultation. The theme of doll play from week to week showed marked preoccupation with illness and injuries of adults. Subtly, the child's feelings about these hurts to adults began to be expressed with Sally occasionally personalizing these feelings to herself. The psychiatrist talkedabout the content of play and helped her to understand her own feelings and especially her fears. At one point, in reviewing memories of the past, she recalled thatwhen she was five or six years old, she had many frightening dreams. She recognized the fact that it had been about this time that Susan was born. She had hoped that her mother would not go to the hospital to get Susan. She saidthat Susan was a nuisance and made her mother sick and caused her to go to the hospital. Sally vaguely remembered that her mother was sickly and "not much good to daddy. He had to do most of the work. He was worried and I was sure mommywould die. I helped him a lotwithPeter and with dishes and with stuff. He said I was a good little mother." The meaning of such content was talked over with Sally, and she in turn talked these new understandings over in great detailwith her parents. After fourteen months of therapy, Sally showed less need to play. The content of discussion shifted gradually to considerations of practical problems of everyday living. School report cards and teacher comments showed that Sally was doing well. She was now going everywhere andhad friends. One day, after sixteen months of therapy, she seemed particularly bored. She was asked how much longer shefelt that she needed to come to therapy. After brief discussion, it was mutually agreed that the end of therapy had been reached.

Sdskmann, EdM '47 Executive Offices: 316 Norton Hall, Buffalo 14, New York. 17 �An alumnus, George M. Ellis, M.D. '45, writes the following anecdote SIDELIGHTS ON EDWARD W. KOCHMedical Dean 1918-46 with two sisters, Josepha and Leona Hasmer. who are avid fans of the nearby Cincinnati Reds. All three ladies do volunteer work at the new50-bed hospital. The Lawrenceburg High School had science teachers in the early years of the century who were destined to carve noteworthy medical careers. Willis D. Gatch, who was to become one of Halsted's select residents, a respected surgeon, and Dean of Indiana University School of Medicine, resigned and told the school board "You needn't look farther for a replacement for me than young Ed Koch in the graduating class." He began teaching with considerable trepidation about the possibility of having to discipline his friends and recent fellow students. Rose Mary Hassmer was one of his pupils during his second year as pedagogist, and she tells of many girls in his classes having a crush on the young science teacher. They were married some years later when Doctor Koch was 35, working at the time as a researcher for Eli Lilly Company, Indianapolis. By then he had graduated from Rush, served internships at Presbyterian Hospital in Chicago and Akron City Hospital, and been instructor in Physiology and Pharmacology at Indiana University. Mrs. Koch had graduated from Indiana University. DOCTOR KOCH'S accomplishments and attributes were adequately documented at the time of his death, particularly in memorial remarks by Doctors Oliver Jones, Stockton Kimball, Russell Groh. A. H. Aaron, and Chancellor Capen. Acquaintance with Mrs. Rose Mary Koch, however, has disclosed some facets which maybe of interest to other middle-aged-and-older products of the medical and dental schools. Mrs. Koch lives in the brewing, distilling, and cooperage town of Lawrenceburg. Indiana, population 4,806, hometown of bothshe and Doctor Koch, 18 During the early months of their married life, Mrs. Koch encountered difficulties with various pronunciations of the name. Dr.Koch has two brothers who still live in Lawrenceburg; his mother died in 1956at the age of97; he hasrelatives in Connersville (note location of author); and the family name is pronounced "COOK". When Doctor Koch made the trip from Indianapolis to Buffalo to discuss the faculty appointment, Mrs. Koch toldhim, "Now, Ed, you pay attention to the way they first say our name and that is the pronunciation we'll adopt". Whenhe called home from Buffalo her first question was "What's our name?" It would have been predictable that the erudite doctors of Buffalo referred to the applicant as Doctor "COKE". Doctor Koch arrived in Buffalo several months before the Armistice was signed, at about the same time as did Doctors Atwell and Youngburg. During one of those early years Mrs. Koch's teen-age brother came for a visit. One afternoon brother and sister walked from the Koch apartment on Allen Street to meet the Pharmacology Professor. Waiting in front of the building for Doctor Koch to appear, the boy noticed the name of medical immortals just under the pigeon roost Pasteur, Jenner, Virchow, Laennec, Koch, etc. "Oh, Rose, Ithink it's wonderful! They must like Ed around here! He hasn't been here long and, look, they have his name carved in stone on the medical school already!" Doctor Koch was delighted by the humor of this misplaced — recognition. The greatest day on Dean Koch's calendar? Graduation Day. "That day was inviolate." Mrs. Koch relates how they would drive to the ceremony with the diplomas on the front seat between them. On the way he would repeat the Oath of Hippocrates from memory. Incidentally, it was an original, carefully-worded, modern and practical version of the Oath which has been rather widely copied. "Give me the B student," Dean Koch used to say privately. "He'll go farther and do more than the others." Headmired the student who attained amedical education in spite of obstacles, but he always tried to treat all his students fairly and without partiality according to the late Dr. Kimball who knew him as a student, a fellow teacher of pharmacology, and as assistant dean. Dean Koch has been gonefor fifteen years. As was predicted at the time, his influence is still living. �Clubnotes Law Class has reunion Good fellowship got a quasi-legal standing when the Law Class of '31 had its 30th annualreunion.

(Note: 10th game pending) Q How did the Bulls fare in '61? A - The record of 4-5-0 was commendable in view of the high-calibre of opposition faced by a young club composed largely of sophomores and seniors. ElMen seniors depart (three of whom were starters) and at least twenty lettermen return next yeaflHj Q What were the season's highlights in '61? A -1. 24-12 win over Boston U. which was rated as one of best in East. 2. Buffalo named Eastern major tearflM e week before season. 3. Co-captain and right end Bill Selent named to two weekly All-East major college teams during season. He is presently strong contender for Eastern Team-of-Year. 4. Center Dick Hort named to one All-East weekly team. 5. Sophomore quarterback "Long John" Stofa broke all-time Buffalo individual total offense mark with 64 completions in 127 pass attempts (.504) for 807 yards and 92 yards rushing. His total of 899 yards included seven TDs (one rushing and six passing) as well as five conversion passes. His 52 points accounted for 38.2% of team total for season. - - — �— THE EARLY CAMPUS A quaint cottage, wed by Erie County Hospital internes, was convertedto tbefirst University Bookstore in 1922. The furnishings were considered quite elegant. Then in 1927, a new store was constructed. It opened Sept 17, and the first and only sale for the day was $.15. Nearby the Plimpton Tennis Courts were erected. They were thefirst on Campus, and coat $6000. In 1953, the Bookstore was moved to its present quarters in Norton, and the long famous North Buffalo replica of the original HollandLand Company building in Batavia became the Faculty Club. ■ ■ fl 9 ■■ fl � Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Through the foresight of the late Dr. Stockton Kimball, Dean of the Medical School, the University of Buffalo obtainedthis property to found a research institute devoted to the study of the chronic diseases. Recognizing the public health aspects of such an institution, the New York State Department of Health, through Commissioner Herman E. Hilleboe, provided research grants which made it possible to equip laboratories and to obtain a staff of research workers. After a preliminary study of community needs, the Institute directed attention to the study of the diseases of the heart, lungs, and blood vessels. Within a short time, a group of clinical, basic, and applied scientists was brought together, specialized equipment was designed and constructed, and a coordinated research program for the studyof hardeningof thearteries, high blood pressure, strokes, 3 �By studying heart, lung and blood vessel diseases, the Institute hopes to find a cure to man's biggest killers. heart attacks, and emphysema was inaugurated. The mission of the University of Buffalo Chronic Disease Research Institute is to carry out research which will improve early diagnosis, treatment, and rehabilitation of disorders. To this end, the Department of Epidemiology of the Institute has undertaken The Buffalo Health Survey to examine the incidence in Erie County of diseases which come under our overall program. Some of the readers of this Bulletin may already have been interviewed by our team of nurses, scientists, and technical staff. This survey will provide basic information concerning the prevalence of heart disease, high bloodpressure, andabnormal lung function. These data will then be correlated with factors such as occupation, diet, and recreational patterns. Among the questions which may be clarified by this study are these common ones: Does a high cholesterol intake predispose to coronary attacks? Is there a relation between cigarette smoking and obstructive diseases of the lungs? Is high blood pressure more likely to be present in people whose salt hunger causes them to salt their foods even before tasting? When the interviewers, coders, and computing Dr. Rodbard and a staff member study records of the blood flow thru lungs. 4 �A heart expert, Dr. Rodbard developed a heart sound analyzer which detects opening and closure of heart valves. machines have compiled the multitudinous data, the findings will be applied in the field of preventive medicine. Only a few years ago many physicians believedthat heartand artery diseases were an inevitable concomitant of old age. However, the disturbingly high incidence of coronary disease during the productive fourth andfifth decades of life suggested a specific disease, rather than a "natural" process of aging. One theory which has been widely accepted suggests that such disorders arise from the culture in which we live. Some of these cultural aspects are being examinedin the laboratories for experimental medicine in the Institute. Diets containing various percentages of fats and cholesterol are being fed toanimals to determine the effects of these materials on the blood and blood vessels. The capacity of defense mechanisms to cope with these materials depends in part on diet, as modified by hormonal and other factors. The resultant changes in the arteries which supply the heart muscle inthe experimental animals closely resemble coronary artery disease in man. Methods for human application are being explored. Chief biochemist, Dr. A. Nail Payza, and research physiologist, Esther McCandless,share the results of many tedious hours of laboratory research. The Institute also aids in various teaching programs One of ourmajor interests isthe study of the causes as well as the effects of elevated blood pressure. Blood vessels which are exposed to higher than normal pressures tend to increased rigidity, which in turn raises the blood pressure stillfurther. The vicious cycle thus initiated probably contributes to progressive damage of thevessels. Anotherfacet of this study considers the effect of high pressures on the heart. An elevatedpressure increases the work load of the heartand stiffens the arterial tree, thus creating a primary problem, namely, the factors which modify the resistance to theflow of blood through the very small arteries and the smaller capillaries. The ability of the heart to cope with the work load placed upon it by the blood pressure determines the likelihood of heart failure. When the heart fails, fluid accumulation (dropsy) becomes evident. These mechanisms are being examinedin the physiology laboratories and in the clinics. The patterns of the blood pressures and flows are also being examined to determine how these modify the character of the walls of thevessels and heart. Our Chemistry Laboratories are engaged in studies of means to strengthen the blood vessel wall and to improve the compounds which are availablefor the prevention of blood clots. A distressingly common but poorly appreciated disease is the chronic obstruction of the airways known as chronic bronchitis or emphysema. Patients with this disorder have no troublein inhaling, but have great difficulty in expelling air from the lungs. This condition is believed to be related to irritation of the airways, perhaps by specific types of air pollution. The treatment ofemphysema is being re-evaluated in our Emphysema Clinic and associated laboratory studies are exploring the mechanisms ofproduction and treatment of this disease. fn conjunction with the Buffalo Eye Bank and Research Society, the Institute has recently established a research unit devoted to diseases of the eye. In its first phase, this group is examining chemical factors which maintain the transparency of the eye covering (cornea) through which light passes, and of the crystalline lens. The Institute also participates in the teaching program of the Medical and Graduate Schools, especially inproviding fellowships and apprenticeships in the research disciplines. 5 �By MARY KLEIN HEPP GREAT BOOKS-ING OR FINDING TIME TO READ 6 �DOLORES NICELY, wife of a senior law student and mother of two children is typical of the many busy housewives who have discovered an exciting new learning experience, reading Great Books. Instead of merely thinking about someday having the time to read the giants like Plato and Shakespeare, Great Bookers read two books a month. And, many husbands have also joined the program. As one man said, "the Great Books Program, may after all, bridge the distance between the desk and the diaper pail. After the discussions, my wife and gratefully acknowledged I that each of us had re-discovered that the other had a brain." THE READING FEVER has caught the fancy of alumni across the nation. For there are 50,000 people who are participating currently in the Great Books Adult program sponsored by the Great Books Foundation. Some of them have been active for a dozen years or more. Some of them are recent recruits. They are old, young, middle-aged; parents of small, new people, parents of collegians. They attend all kinds of churches and none. They are active Democrats, active Republicans, concerned independents. They are quiet, not-so-quiet and downright aggressive. In Buffalo alone some 450 collegians of various institutions are involved inthe common aim. They read Great Books: two each month: Twice during the month, on alternate weeks, they gather in groups of 10 to 25 to talk about one book each member of that group has read since they last met. The discussion is led by two discussion leaders, trained by the Great Books Foundation to ask incisive questions, keep the discussion oriented to the book and (this is the hardest to learn!) avoid making positive statements. No one tells Great Book-ers why the book they've read is great or what they ought to find in it. No one tells them how one book relates to another or to 1962. They take no examination, pay no fees, earn no credits. They comefor nearly as many reasons as there are people and they stay for the season, several seasons or a dozen because Great Books-ing is an exciting learning experience. A Great Books year is an annual march through the centuries. The year may begin with Confucius, the Old Testament or Homer. In time you will have read the complete extant body of Greek drama, most of Shakespeare, all of the Platonic dialogues and have a speaking acquaintance with most major philosophers. Any year includes history, science, fiction, philosophy and political science. There is no guarantee that a single prejudice will be lost but many are. There is no guarantee that critical ability will improve or reading rate increase butthe testimony to the effect that this has happened to participants isvoluminous. There isno pledge that participation in the program will develop new friendships but there are people who know that the odds are enormous against their meeting any other way, in any other place. The only valid reason for joining a Great Books group is an honest desire to read the books. All other benefits are bonus and incidental. The books themselves are those written by the giants "on whose shoulders" we sit "like dwarfs" to "see more things than the ancients and things more distant due neither to the sharpness of our own sight nor the greatness of our stature, but because we are raised and borne aloft on that giant mass." (From Bernard of Chartre, quoted in Anne Freemantle's Introduction to Age of Belief). The giants do not agree with each other nor will you with them. They havenot all earned their stature by the same kind of performance. Euclid's concerns are not the same as William James' nor Lavoisier's the same as Kant's. Most of them are familiar, at least by name, to most college graduates. Many received only passing mention because a life-time of reading cannot be compressed into the few years set aside for college. Most of them merit more consideration than they received for a speedily assembled report wedged between two others. Most of them have more to offer an adult, living in the world of family and business responsibilities than a college student. .. 7 �- GREAT BOOKS ING One of the giants, a young Italian monk, suggested that God made the angels, the world, the animals therein and afterwards created man in the middle way with "power to degenerate into the lower forms of life, which are brutish." And if we never use our intelligences, our college-trained thinking apparathe tuses, are we not settling for a brutish life? very, unexamined life that Socrates deplored as not worth living? Are we not settling then for beans and wieners when we might have roast beef and Yorkshire pudding? It's perfectly true that the pressures are great and the flesh is weak. There is a never-ending moan of, "I know I ought to read more." Everyone hashadthe experience of a fleeting resolution to really make a reading plan and stick to it. It's easy! Like quitting cigarettes. Some people quit ten times a week. Putting the book on the shelf is even easier than making the resolution. And this is why there are now thousands of college graduates across the country and in Europe and Canada, finding their way into the Great Books program. It is not so easy to break a datewith a book when the date also involves people. When a group of people with just as many pressures as you have, some many more, expect you to have read a book and read it well enough to be able to document your opinions about it, you do read the book. The program supplies the deadline that acts as a spur to keep you awake. After awhile, youfind that you live, much more of the time, in a state of awakeness, more vitally alive than anyone can possibly be when his only touchstones are the simple mechanics of living. You live with what Whitehead calls "the vision of .. greatness". — Mary Klein Hepp, BA'35 is well ABOUT THE AUTHOR qualified to write about the Great Books Program. She has served as the Community Representative for the Buffalo area for the past five years. Before that she was a participant and discussion group leader. The wife of William H. Hepp, LLB'39, she is known to alumni for her service through the years to the University. She has been a Loyalty Fund agent, an officer of the Arts and Sciences Alumni Association, and a member of the General Alumni Board. In 1959, she was chairman of the Arts and Sciences Division of the University Development Campaign. In the Community, she has served as a director of the Buffalo Council of World Affairs, Travelers Aid, the League of Women Voters, and theWomen's Committee of the Philharmonic Orchestra. She is currently a member of the Buffalo Board of Community Relations, and active in manyfund-raising drives. After a recent institute, a young man wrote: "The Great Books program, mayafter all, bridge the distance between the desk and the diaper pail. After the discussions of the past week-end, my wife and I both gratefully acknowledged that each of us had re-discovered that, the other had a brain". The thanks, in that instance were directed to me for my labor of love in arranging the institute. Much more and greaterthanks are due tomany others, beginning, of course, with the giants themselves, then to John Erskine who conceived the Great Books curriculum idea at the close of the First World War when he was teaching veterans at a French University. He transplanted the concept to Columbia University where one of his students was Mortimer J. Adler. In the 1930'5, Robert M. Hutchins, then Chancellor of the University of Chicago, and Adler who was then a Continued on page lourteen 8 �JUNE WEEKEND 1962 IF YOU'VE NEVER BEEN TO A JUNE get together, now is the time to circle your calendar for this year June 9, 10 on the campus. There will be plenty of activities to please the entire family, and costs are very low. Saturday afternoon the annual Carnivaltype entertainment will be offered. This includes the Tunk, Kiddie Rides, swimming, and the German Band all free. In the evening a Homecoming-like dance will be held at some nearby rendezvous. The entire graduating class will be invited. There will be a top-notch band and loads of fun at a small price (probably $3.00). Sunday, of course, are Commencement activities. — ....

Ransom, Chancellor,the University ofTexas, points out that the alumnus is the main carrierof higher education in our society, and that the importance of loyalty to alma mater will increase whetherthe institution be private or state. the state university's alumni relationships will confront almost innumerable permutations and complexities, problems and opportunities. It is necessary that we impose simplicity upon this wonderfully complicated subject. But we should not let manufactured simplicity mislead us. The title of this discussion, for example, wears the garb of the state university. Yet my mainpoint—or at least my chief silent assumption—is that alumni relations of a "state" institution differ very little from those at other institutions concerned with higher education. Take the problem of dollar support. Distinguished private universities or thosewith some hope ofattaining distinction have found that dollars—millions of dollars—from the Federal treasury are necessary to underwrite new research programs in a day when research is an instrument of national defense and national welfare. As for state universities, they still seek such tax dollars. But they also seek private dollars with an eagerness which increases with their increasing need to raise academic standards. The president of a great private university recently announced that last year the Federal government contributedabout 18 million dollars to his budget— a modest sum compared with Federal support of other "private" universities. That sum isalmost precisely the amount recently appropriated by a state legislature for one campus of its growing public system of higher education. As a double token of mixed resources, the state university's budget was supported simultaneously by about five million dollars from private sources. Which university is private, which is public? Apart from such dollar arithmetic, all state universitiesare seeking new definitions for themselves— context, organization, plan of operation, educational and social purpose. No longer can a university assume that it is a university because it is called one. Nor is college education equally college education at Old Bivalve or NewState U. Indeed, the sheer number of very new state universitiesalone requires caution in continued on next page any sort of generalization. 11 �If dollars and organizational patterns did not present complexities, a university's multiplepopulations would create them. The four elder estates of a university—students, alumni, faculty, and administration—are now joined by a fifth. That fifth estate is madeup offuture students. I do notrefer to amusing sentiments pictured by three-year-olds in over-size sweaters labeled "Classof 1979." I mean simply that all future academic programs, which were once the leisurely concern of academic philosophers, curriculum committees, registrar's office, and the administration, must now be planned with canny educational strategy suited to a population of very young Americans. And they must be planned years before those young Americans buy prep-school or high-school class rings. Thus alumni and endowment officers, like administrators and faculty committees,can no longer resort to tritefigures of speech about "the dialogue between the graduate and his Alma Mater." Instead, they must join loud pentalogues with alumni who at 70 may be revising wills, who at forty are making their way (or perhaps theirfortune), who at 21 are getting out of the university, andwho at 15are getting ready to come into it. I suggest that it is more important for alumniand endowment officers to consider this calculus of the several academic generations than to deal inthe old bald and false stereotypes of "the state university alumnus." In a practical educational vocabulary, conglomerate plurals likealumni meanas little as dehumanized abstractions like "average student." In the singular —and that is the number in which he must always be considered—an alumnus is mainly himself. Any other conception of him promulgated by university offices or officers is false. In whatever form he once entered the university, how he took his short or long transit across the campus, where he made his exit (or inwhich particular corral got branded A.8., 8.5., LL.B., or M.D.), in whatever orbits he pursues his mixed existences, private and public, he remains singular. , \ In our age, every university needs the alumnus in the role of harbinger harbinger of what that university must be if it is to be a real — university. This singularity of thealumnus (like the singularity of the undergraduate and graduate student) is not merely a condition of person differing from every other member of a group. It is mainly the result of a function to which every university is dedicated. Education is still largely a process of delayed explosions. Except for the absolute genius and the absolute nincompoop, education is also a continous process in the sense that it goes on throughout the individual lifetime. But timing of educational explosions inindividual experience differs enormously. To bring that figure of speech up to date, so do intellectual chain reactions which an individual sometimes can effect inother human beings around him. As an alternate metaphor, we might better select an educational phenomenon closer to the human sciences. We have given too little emphasis to the fact that the alumnus is the main "carrier" of education in our society. Even when knowledge does not "take" with him, a man may infect others with it or with a sense of its desirability—and in an age like ours, with a conviction of the need of knowledge among all sorts and conditions of men. In our age, every university needs the alumnus in the role of harbinger—harbingerof what that university must be if it is to be a real university. In this decade, therefore, the state university must require of its alumni a great deal more than those familiar modes of flaplip loyalty out of which college 12 �Fifty-yard alumni at least know the importance of beginning at the center of things and what it means to shift perspective. Let us take heart when one applies in a wide-minded vein: "This year I don't ask for a seat on the fifty-yard line; I want mine on the fifty-one or forty-nine." Alumni spectators of theAmerican university scene and alumni patrons of American university programs are traditionally two kinds of graduates on whom we have learned to rely for overview and underpinning. Often they are embodiedin the same person; we are grateful for them in either manifestation. But nowevery university realizes that thealumnus participant is what every graduate ought to be and may become. In the currencies of academic imagination, most assets have been"blocked,"like currencies in faraway countries. We have talked enough in our time about dedication of alumnus sentiments; we have considered too little the engagement of the thoughtful faculties of the alumnus—his part in the community of university minds. Durability of educational ideals cannot rely exclusively upon initiation of new generations by teaching staffs, however wise the teachers. Hence no development inrecent alumni programs of the state university is more significant than the engagement of graduates in councils of academic advice, curriculum evaluation, andeducational planning. At one university last year, almost six hundred alumni spent from one to thirty days apiece in — — reunions and alumni hurrah-letters were once composed. New imperatives of alumni interest are as broad as the process of democracy itself. They are as particular as the intellectual metes and bounds of the school or college. The context of alumnus concern is, of course, social and political and economic as well as intellectual and cultural in the limited, personal sense. Yet I doubt that we can increase serious, enlightened concernfor science by threatening global disaster or warning that Khrushchev will get all the old grads if they don't watch out. That kind of rhetoric may titillate some graduates. But these graduates should address themselves to more prosaic and much more difficult propositions. The state university should ask them to help us mean what we say, when we say things likethis: The academic standards of a state university should be as rigorous as the state's immediate need and as high as its highest future prospect in a democratic society. By that proposition I do not intend to imply that the alumni officer's undertaking, or the chancellor's, is to proceed with each alumnus as if he were necessarily highbrowed, long-haired, and eggheaded. On the contrary, I would parenthesize at any point of this argument by insisting that if sports, for example, are the only university activity an alumnus is presently inclined to support, then let us thank Heaven for that athletic ardor. It is worth more than academic apathy. Football is certainly not the end of wisdom, but a love of sports can be the beginning of respect for the wisest undertakings of a university. And the issues soon may be more critical than those decided on fields like Waterloo. Such heresy demands a pious example. Here it is: not long ago a rarefied project in the fine arts languished until a former boxing commissioner of New York got behind it. The former commissioner was neither a citizen of the statefor which the project was proposed nor an alumnus of the university which proposed it. But heknocked the suggestion intokeen sensibility; itflourishes. — The alumnus, through official representation in the university community, should provide a kind of focal point for public conscience and academic affairs. 13 �undramatic but not unrewarding chores of consult- antship. They went to work, hard work, at assessment of theacademic product by the consumer, the citizenry. These alumni were leading citizens from every profession, business, and industry in the state. For those unpaid consultant's fees, nobody added even a modest total to theannualaccount of alumni gifts to that university. The university could not have afforded to buy such consultation. Nor couldit have proceededwisely inits investments ofresources, time,and human careers without thekind of wisdom brought to bear upon its program by alumni advice. Not the least valuableresult of this program was a simple conjunction of alumni opinion and faculty conviction. As it turned out, thefaculty appeared as a new brand of alumnus in the mixing. Your most seasoned alumnus is your long-experienced teacher, no matter where he may have taken his bachelor's, master's, and doctoral degrees. He has been educated by successive incoming classes and departing classes and returning graduates. He knows his way—as one alumnus put it recently—"around and around." He alsoknows his way inside and outside the university. Conversely, it is clear that although alumni and development officers may be considered jauntily as super-salesman—ultra-managerial, hypersentimental first sergeants of college emotions, loyalties, and hard-dollar pledges—they arereally nothing much if they are not also educators in the broadest sense. As educators, withall the dignities and dirty work appertaining thereto they are best prepared to discount and discard the academic burlesques, intellectual striptease acts, and silly campus circuses that once passed for alumni programs. When everything was private about a university, such nonsense could get by. Today the university (and especially the public university) lives very publicly. True, it has no less obligation to perpetuate traditional pleasures of the campus, the sheer fun of education. But it cannot deal mainly in amusements, staying oblivious to what was once called the "outside world." Slowly the cloister became the rotunda, then a broadcasting system of university thinking. The public stage of university activity denies us comforts of private and provincial wajrs that made the campus once seem delightfully or damnably set apart and safe. If there ever was an age that could Reprinted with permission 14 afford to excuse irresponsibility of the intellect, that age has passed. Educationis entirely too dangerous a process to be left to the private magic of college presidents, to the antisocial scientist, to witcheries of the academic eccentric or the educated fool, to whims of the absentmindedprofessor, or the alumnus who has abdicated mentality. Let us remember that it was not the invention of a machine that brought on the horrors of World War II—itwas the perversion ofa philosophy. When the minds of the miseducated can be so perverted, then education must become everybody's business. For the state university this is a sobering fact. It is not enough to say "What a nuisance!" and forthwith double our budgets for "publicrelations." The university mustregularly expect new kinds of attention and inquiry. It must sometimes expect outright and outrageous interference. Against such interference it must take a position that makes sense, though it cannot be expected always to make friends of those who interfere. The state university should resist now—andkeep resisting always—professional carpers and alarmists, the self-appointed, pipsqueak, crackpot investigators. In connection with this conduct of educational enterprise by fearless action and by open record, alumni and endowment officers assume their most significant roles. Thealumnus, through theseofficial representatives in the university community, should provide a kind of focal point for public conscience about academic affairs. This conscience must share the burden of public responsibility and the obligations of intellectual integrity. Itmust demonstrate, for example, the fact that academic freedom is mere imprisonment to empty tradition unless it assumes full allegiance to truth, full accountability to public good. It must insist that democratic education is not a cheapening of knowledge at the public fountain but a spring of wisdom for all the people. State universities were the last American educational institutions to come to alumni for such help. They should have been the first. By this reversal in the logical development of educational history, obligations of the state university alumnus have doubled. So have his opportunities. from THE ALCALDE, The University of Texas Alumni Magazine. �,Atomic clocks which are now so accurate that they should not gain or lose a second in 1000 years, and in which time can be measured in billionthsof seconds werefirst con- ceived by Alumnus Harold Lyons. A native Buffalonianwho received his BA degree in physics, magna cum laude, Dr. Lyons succeeded in building the first two atomic clocks in 1948 when working for the National Bureau of Standards. The first clock used ammonia, the second a cesium beam. His devices paved the way for development of more recent improved atomic clocks; one of the latest, a cesium beam atomic clock, is the one described above. One of the foremost pioneers in the science and techniques of electronics, Dr. Lyons began his career as a laboratory assistant while in undergraduate school. After graduation he remained at the University for a year teaching undergraduate physics. In 1939 he completed his PhD at the University of Michigan. He then did research at the Naval Research Laboratory and the National Bureau of Standards. In 1955 Dr. Lyons joined Hughes Aircraft Company as senior scientist and later head of theAtomic Physics Department. He organized research Harold Lyons, A FAMOUS ALUMNUS programs in atomic and solid state physics including beam masers, spin resonance masers, quantum electron- ics materials research, and atomic clocks for satellites and navigation. As vice-president, Electro-Optical Systems Inc., and manager of the Quantum Physics Division, Dr. Lyons is presently responsible for research and development in quantum physics, with particular emphasis on design and development of masers, irasers and lasers. (A maser is an acronym for microwave amplification by stimulated emission of radiation. Similarly derived are the Sixth in a series of recognizing words Iraser and Laser for the equivalent infrared and light "optical" devices). Throughout his career he haswritten over thirty technical articles on such subjects as atomic clocks, relativistic clock satellite experiments, microwave spectroscopy, masers, lasers, and irasers, microwave techniques, high frequency direction finding and others. He holds seven patents and in addition to his clock invention is responsible for eleven other inventions or developments of new equipment and techniques. Among the numerous honors Dr. Lyons has received are three signal awards in 1949: The Arthur S. Flemming Award for Outstanding Achievement in the Field of Radio Engineering, the Department of CommerceExceptional ServiceGold Medal Award for the first "Atomic Clock," and the National Bureau of Standards SuperiorAccomplishment Award. In 1952 he was chosen to receive the Washington Academy of Science Award for Achievement in the Physical Sciences. The University presented him with a Citation in 1957 for his "epochal inventions and research in the field of nuclear physics". The next year he was awarded the Franklin Institute Certificate of Merit for "work in pioneering thedevelopment of clocks of very great precision based on the natural periods of vibration of atoms and employing microwave techniques". Dr. Lyons is a member of the following organizations: American Institute of Electrical Engineers, Research Society of America, Sigma Xi, and PhiBetaKappa. Heis a fellow, American Physical Society and Institute of Radio Engineers. His wife, Edna Maenick is an alumna, BS (Ed)'36.

Continued from page Record crowd hears curninings six professor at Chicago, started Great Books for students and later offered the discussion seminars to adults in the Chicago Public Library. Interest grew across the country and the program was launched in Buffalo through the interest and energy of Oscar A. Silverman, now chairman of the department of English here, who led the first laymen's seminar to train discussion leaders with the late Nathaniel Cantor, then chairmen of the Sociology Department. The program was sponsored by the University of Buffalo, the Buffalo Department of Education and the (then) Buffalo PublicLibrary. It is still indebted to the continuing advice of Dr. Silverman and the sponsorship and cooperation of the Buffalo and Erie County Public Library. The Great Books Foundation was organized and incorporated in 1947, was aided financially by other National foundations and especially the Fund for Adult Education. Recently it conducted a fund-raising campaign to enable it to be a financially independent organization, supported by membership dues, voluntary gifts of participants and friends and the sale of the sets of reprints which it publishes. These little, paper-back books are not to be confused with the elegantly bound Great Books of the Western World published by Britannica. The Foundation's sets cost about $10 for the sixteen readings in a years course and their purchase is optional. At the inception of the program there was a general fever about everyone becoming a reader of the Great Books and an iminentrealization of Thoreau's dream that "villages were universities, andtheir elder inhabitants, the fellows of universities." Time has proven that the hope was perhaps too sanguine. There is no educational requirement and there is evidence, in a recent survey, that members who have no college training are more knowledgeable in the field of liberal arts after two years of participation than college graduates beginning the program. However, the evidence is unmistakable that most people without college training do not join. Of the 50,000 people in the program, 84 percent attended college; 23 per cent have a bachelor's degree; 37 per cent have creditfor graduate work. The fever has now died down and the program grown to a promising stability. Locally, the numbers remain remarkably the same for regular attendance with an ever-increasing number of "temporary alumni" who have enjoyed exposure to the greatest minds the western world has produced and the magic of adult interchange of ideas based on the writings of these minds. 16 Poet e. e. cummings read 24 of his poems to 1200 students, faculty and guests, December 11, in Capen Hall. Through the advantages of close-circuit television, it was possible for Mr. cummings' followers to see and hear him even though Butler Auditoriumseats 500.Four other classrooms in the building were used. His appearance was sponsored by the ConvocationsCommittee of the Student Association and the Abbott Reading Fund of the Lockwood Memorial Library. The 67-year-old Americanwho madethe lower-case alphabet famous and likes to fool around with the symbols of the typewriter read from two volumes: "95 Poems" and "Poems, 1923-54." At the close of each half-hour session he walked, looking neither to right or left, the 16 steps up the auditorium and out to fully appreciate applause. He banned all photographs, autographs and smoking during his talk. Trend towards greatness In New Perspective, the 1960-61 Annual Report, Chancellor Furnas predicts a major building program as well as a sizeable increase inthe student body when the University becomes a state university, probably by next September. The report calls for tentative construction to include: "a new on-campus Law Center, an expanded Medical Center; library construction; at least three classroom buildings; a theater and visual arts building to complete theFine Arts Center;facilities for chemical engineering; a field house; service buildings; and purchase of additional property. "In addition, several major dormitory unitswill have to be constructed to house students from all over New York State and the nation." Currently under construction are a $3,500,000 student unionbuilding and a new classroom building." (New alumni quarters will be on the second floor of the student union). Dr. Furnas' report reviewed the university's progress during the fiscal year 1960-61. At the end of the year,the University had a 'book value' of $70,237,010 an increasefor the year of $5,072,649. Thevalue of the university's land,buildings and equipment during the year climbed by $4,700,000 to a total of $35,846,284. Great strides were made in teaching and scientific research making it evident from this survey, the chancellor notes "that ours is an institution which can con- — �tinue to expand to meet the needs of the 1960's and 70's one that can grow into true greatness in terms of —education, research and public service. Enrollment increases The totalenrollmentnumber this year is 14,360which 14% increase over last year. Thefull time day enrollment is 9,400 (which includes professional schools and summer school). This is a 20% rise over 1960-61. In the Fall 2600freshmen were admitted out of 7000 students who made application. We expect to accept about the same number next Fall. A year ago November we had received 250 applications for admission; this year we had received 1700 by the same date and by January 15, applications had soared to nearly 5000. is a Berner, Ertell named to new posts Two administrative changes have been announced: Dr. Robert Berner, BS(Bus)'39, MBA'4B, has been namedassistant to the chancellorfor budget preparation and administration,and Dr. MertonW. Ertell,BS (Bus) '38, MBA'49, has been reappointed as assistant vice chancellor for educational affairs. Dr. Ertell held the post in 1955-58. He is also Melvin H. Baker associate professor of American enterprise, economics and industrial relations. Dr. Berner willretain his title as dean of Millard Fillmore College, but more of the day-to-day concerns will beassumed by Dr. Nicholas Kish, Edß'42, MBA'4B, EdD'6l, assistant dean. Nuclear Center off to good start The Western NewYork Nuclear Research Center exadd a second shift of operations during 1962 in order to handle the growing list of industrial research contracts. This will put the $2 millionatomic reactor on a 16-houra day operation, five days a week. Dr. Ralph F. Lumb, director of the Research Center, reports that "the build-up of contracts is coming along at the rate we had originally predicted. "We are not inthe black yet and we won't be next year either, but I expect the Center will cross the 'break-even point' and begin to show a profit in thefiscal year of July 1, 1963 to June 30, 1964." The Center is still operating largelyas a service facility inwhich the use of thereactor is "rented out" to a clientwho conducts his own studies with his own personnel. Since June 1 the Center has worked on 24 commercial projects, and thefacilities have been used by the Medical School and by the biology, chemistry and physics departments. In the first half-year of operation, the Research Center has become a major supplier of radioactive isotopes for the Niagara Frontier primarily sodium, potassium, bromide, manganese, phosphorous and sulphur. Isotope users have included local industries, University departments, Roswell Park Memorial Institute, Eastman Dental Dispensary in Rochester, the University of Rochester and Cornell University. pects to — Cagers surviving road schedule A listing of pleasant surprises for the 1961-62 school year would be far from complete without mention of early-season results posted by the Varsity hoopsters of Dr. Leonard Serfustini. Graduation took last year's five starters who posted a record of 18-5. This year's crew is loaded with sophomore and junior talent which is meeting the challenge of working together as a team for the first time.

'23 BS—Dr. Sidney Farber, professor of pathology at Harvard University and director of research at Children's Cancer Research Foundation, has been named recipient of a Distinguished Achievement Award for contributions which have directly influenced current medical practice. Dr. Farber was specially cited for his advancement of spec- ific chemical treatment of leukemia in children, and contributions to understanding the nature of other pediatric diseases. He and nine other medical scientists were honored by the editors of Modern Medicine, international medical journal, who annually make the awards. Dr. Farber played a leading role in the clinical development of aminopterin, first of the antimetabolites to be used in treating cancer. This discovery led to fulfillment of another of his dreams—a special division of the medical center devoted exclusively to care of children with malignant disease. He was also among the first to describe cystic fibrosis as a generalized disease, to prove the occurence of eastern equine encephalitis in man, and with colleague Jerome Harris, to write a classic description of large blood vessel problems to which modern heart surgery owes a part of its development. A native of Buffalo, Dr. Farber received his medical education at Harvard and abroad. After internship at Peter Bent Brigham Hospital, he became resident and later the first full-time pathologist at Children's Hospital. '24 LLB—Milton L.

In ten years the efforts of the entire community has brought over 26 varieties and 268 trees to the University campus. □ The idea of developing an outstanding collection of flowering crab apples was conceived in May 1952 by Pat Thomas, wife of Frederick H., chairman of the Industrial Engineering Department. She had heard about the wonder- ful crab apple collection on the Swarthmore College campus, and thought how beautiful our own campus could be with the addition of the lovely blossoming trees. She discussed her plan with University authorities who heartily approved it. Then she and Professor Thomas planted the first two trees behind the Engineering building. Six more trees were donated by the senior class of the School of Pharmacy and Alpha Phi Omega, the service fraternity, planted them behind the Library. □ The next year the Eighth District of Federated Garden Clubs which has a combined membership of 2600 women adopted the campus beautification plan as a three-year civic project. Through their efforts contributions are still pouring in from other organizations, students, faculty and private citizens. Many gifts are in the form of memorials. □ All the trees have been planted in accordance with the master landscape plan ofthe University designed by Mrs. George G. Zahm, a graduate in landscape design, University of Michigan. Richard A. Sebian, University horticulturist, is labeling each tree so thatthe public can identify each variety. Q Who knows in a few years tourists may visit the University of Buffalo to admire its lovely array of pink and red blossoms! Many Buffalonians already make it a point to drive through the campus each Spring to see the crab apples in bloom. The tree behind Hayes Hall is shown in the photo. 2 �THE UNIVERSITY OF Buffalo ALUMNI BULLETIN Volume 29, Number 2 April 1962 Published five times during the yeax in October, December, February, Apriland by The University of Buffalo at June, 3435 Main Street, Buffalo 14, N.

MEDINA, SENIOR CIRCUIT JUDGE FOR THE SECOND DISTRICT, POINTED OUT SEVERAL REASONS WHY ALUMNI BECOME SO ATTACHED TO THEIR ALMA MATER. THE FOLLOWING ARTICLE IS EXCERPTED FROM THAT WELL-RECEIVED SPEECH. The Anatomy of an Alumnus Artist 4 — Theodore V. Palermo �IT IS A MATTER of common knowledge that the reciprocal benefits derived by the alumnus and by the college or university with which he is affiliated constitute one of the significant phenomena of life here in the United States. In the scale of human values, the general bundle of which is sometimes referred to as "the pursuit of happiness," there are many, including myself, who give the Alma Mater— Alumnus relationship a very high rating. How and why is this so? We shall try to find the answer as we search the soul of the alumnus to find out what makes him tick, as the expression goes. My class in Princeton is the Class of 1909. The never-to-be-forgotten genius of our class, who became ourfirst Secretary after graduation, was Joshua Cooley Brush. I have spoken of him before, on many occasions, as he is my ideal alumnus. I never shall forget the day he asked me to be a member of the committee planning our first mid-winter dinner. I helpedplan the menu at old Monquin's in NewYork City and bought thecigars. This was a proud moment for me I had never amounted to anything in the class before. Then I became the chairman of our Weekly Class Luncheon Committee. By that time I was as busy as a bird dog in the law; but I worked like a beaver on those class luncheons. We finally got a loft above Fusco's restaurant inlower Beaver Street, in New York City, and Fusco agreed to let us eat thereapartfrom the other customers and have thewaiters bring our food upstairs. What good times we had. Sometimes there were as many as twentyfive or thirty on hand, and never less than fifteen. Visiting fireman from Houston, or Oregon or even China and various diplomatic posts all over theworld were welcomed with a rousing cheer. When Fusco's closed we moved on, butthese were the heydays. The first thing you knew I was on the Class Executive Committee. All this time I was helping to keep the names and addresses up to date, collaborating in a modest way, on our class record books, of which we now have six, the last one our Forty-Fifth Year Record Book published in 1954, discussing with — various classmates the skits, the contests and the other so-called entertainment we put on at our annual midwinterand reunion dinners. And thereunions every June! How Josh loved reunions, and the events every fall about the time of the first or secondfootball games. For some reason I shall never be able to explain, why we called these, and we still call them, Field Days. We didmake an effort to play golf, but this was not much of a success. On one occasion one of our immortals, Tubby Sherrill, now long since gone to his reward, put all his golf balls in the lakeand then threwhis bag of clubs in after them. We quaffed spirituous liquors and we played thefunniestkind of a poker gameever heard of—sometimes the twos, threes, and one-eyed Jacks were all wild together and we debatedwhether five of a kind beat a straight flush. Flipping cards in a wastebasket was one of the most popular events I used to practice at it homefor weeks before the Field Days. Those were the happy days and the same sort of thing goes on right now, in 1962. What is it that binds us so closely to our Alma Mater? Why do our heartsrespond sowarmly? Why do we do so in sucha myriad of ways to demonstrate our lovefor the educationalinstitution that brought us to maturity and helped us to develop our latent talentsand capacities and our sense of humanvalues, and to appreciate the beauties and the harmonies of art and literature, and to strengthen and broaden our intellectualfaculties? I respectfully submit that there are threereasons for this. Doubtless there are others, but I stress these three above all others. I shall discuss them inwhat I think is the inverse order of their importance, but I realize others may have different views on the subject. — — 1 THERE IS A PSYCHOLOGICAL URGE TO BE IDENTIFIED AS A MEMBER OF A GROUP, THE NOTION OF BELONGING. First, there is the psychological urge to be identified as a member of the group, the notion of "belonging." This enhances one's individual ego and produces a perfectly human feeling of pleasure and security. People like to get on the band wagon if given a reasonable opportunity to do so. It is the opposite of a feeling that one is on the outside, more or less regarded as different from the others. Class spirit and class unity inevitably foster this idea of "belonging." After the lapse of a few years not a single member of the class thinks he is being left out inthe cold. 5 �2 THERE (S A SPARK OF FIRE BETWEEN THE TEACHER AND THE PUPIL, BETWEEN THE INSTITUTION OF LEARNING AND THE STUDENT, THAT CONTINUES WITH US THRU LIFE AND NEVER CEASES TO ENGENDER RECIPROCAL FEELINGS OF WARMTH, AFFECTION AND GRATITUDE. Second, there is that spark of fire between the teacher and the pupil, between the institution of learning and the student, that continues with us through life and never ceases to engendera reciprocal feeling of warmthand affection and gratitude. As the ripples go out endlessly when one throws a pebble into a pond, the effect goes on and on until we join our loved ones in the great beyond. Some of us may perversely seek to extinguish this spark of fire, while others nurse and foster it with loving care; but, in either event, and no matter what may happen to us, the spark is never extinguished. This I submitis also a basic psychological fact. The third reason is not so widely understood. I shall try to work around it on the bias, my favorite approach. When I was a boy at prep school I simply could not understand why Cicero kept harping on his desire to establish a reputation that would continue down through the ages.Most of the other Greek and Latin authors we studiedseemed to be obsessed with the same idea. As I grew older it suddenly dawned on me that, in varying degrees according to their circumstances, practically everyone has an itching for fame. People do all sorts of things that can be designed for no other purpose than to perpetuate their memory, as far as they can. But, when you stop to think about it, where is one to find the lasting, solid qualityof permanency in this best of all possible worlds, as Voltaire used to call it.Buildings of great beauty, temples, churches and what not, are constructed, but as the years roll by they are torn down and replaced by others. Think of the millions of books that were thought to bring imperishable glory to their authors, but now lie buried away in some library and forgotten or wholly destroyed and lost in oblivion. A person does not have to be so very bright to realize that nothing he can dowill be sure to construct an image of himself thatwill be perceptible to anyone in another fifty or one hundred years. Yes, the deeds of men and women as well as those of 6 theirfriends and relatives and all that is dear to them will pass into the mist and be no more, as Horace so often reminds us. But the college or university stands out as almost the only really solid, permanent fact. It is something we can cling to throughout life, and thus become a part of its very permanency and stability through the ages. We may leave our mark upon it,perhaps our very name, in a more or less conspicuous way. Even the annals of the college or the university and its archives with their references to the records of the students and the benefactions of the alumni run back to the timewhen the memory of man runneth not to the contrary, as the lawyers say. 3 A COLLEGE OR UNIVERSITY HAS A SOLID, PERMANENT QUALITY. IT IS SOMETHING THE ALUMNUS CAN CLING TO DURING HIS LIFE, AND THUS BECOME PART OF ITS PERMANENCY AND STABILITY. So I think it is the most natural and the most human thing in theworld for thealumnus to act as he does. And as he comes back to warm himself in the sun of the campus and opens his coffers and bestows of his substance to the various drives for Annual Giving and for the Capital Needs of hisAlma Mater, and for the establishment of professorships and scholarships and what not else, we may rest assured that he is well repaid not only in the happiness he enjoys with his classmates and with the alumni of other classes, but also by the satisfaction one always feels in responding to an inner urge and a subconscious motivation.

A UB ECONOMICS PROFESSOR, DR. HAMBERG HAS PUBLISHED, "BUSINESS CYCLES," "ECONOMIC GROWTH AND STABILITY," AND "PRINCIPLES OF A GROWING ECONOMY." Our Antiquated Patent System OUR PATENT SYSTEM which is 170 years old has been showing its age for quite a while. Although there has always been some discontent with our method of rewarding inventors, there is a new wave of grumbling which has grown out of the post-World War II "research explosion." This massive increase in research and development, which has so drastically altered the circumstances surrounding the inventive process, has made a re-evaluation of the present systemalmost imperative. A brief analysis of the basic theory underlying the patent system will serve as background for understanding the present situation. Patentrights confer monopoly powers on the patentee. Thus patent owners can restrict the use of their inventions in thehope that the resulting higher market prices will make possible greater profits than they could earn iftheirinventions were freely available. Society has, in effect, erected a legal institution that impedes the diffusion of invention and technical knowledge. Why? Because itis believedthat the monopolyprofits madepossible (if not guaranteed) by the patent system willraise the rate of invention. In a word, the patent system was conceived in the paradoxical expectation that by slowing down the rate of diffusion of inventions, therewould be more inventions to diffuse. By what mental route was this ingenious conclusionreached? The answer is really very simple. It is assumed that the economic prog- ress we want comes essentially from technological change. It is further assumed that improved technology comes largely out of patentable inventions and innovations. Finally, it is assumed that patentable inventionsand innova- tions involve much time and effort and frequently heavy financial outlays. Hence the prospect of monopoly profits provided by patents is necessary ifindividualsand companies are to assume the risks of invention and innovation. It would be easy to cavil at all the assumptions underlying this case for the patent system. Recent studies undertaken by the Committeefor Economic Development indicate that, until now at least, technical change has not accounted for more than a third of our economic progress. (Increased capital per head and improvement in the educational level of our labor force account for most of the remainder.) Furthermore, it would be very difficult to prove the assumption that technical progress is largely associated with patented (or patentable) inventions. The dramatic advances in industrial management, in organization techniques, in technical "know-how," and in basic scientific discoveries—these are not patentable; yet they have played a dominant role in our technological progress. Nor is there a solid basis for assuming that the risks associatedwith the invention and exploitation of patentable inventions are jreater than with nonpatentable innovations. However, for the sake of argument, let us accept for the moment the assumptions on which the patent laws are based. Does it follow that patents are indeed needed as a fundamental inducement to inventand innovate? No, say the critics, not in view of recent developments. CRITICISMS: INDUSTRY INNOVATES, First of all, in the current busi- ness milieu, industry conducts research and development (R & D) and makes innovationsunder the stimulus of competition, not of the patent system. Competition in developing new and improved (and lower priced) products and processes has become the principal spur to invention and innovationin industry. Businessmen have turned increasingly to technological advances as a major instrument in the struggle for improving their 7 �position in the market. Outlays on R & D are now made because producers cannot afford to lag behind their innovating competitors if they want to stay in business. They are also made because the reputation of a firm rests heavily on its ability to keep ahead, to be first in the market with something new and first to reduce prices (or last to increase them). Moreover, for the incentive to make important new inventions, producers can rely on the temporary monopoly-profit that is theirs by virtue of their natural head start. Even in a world of vigorous competition, with no patents or other barriers to the free acquisition of new knowledge, imitating newcomers need time to make plans, start construction, get into production and bring their products to the market. The innovator can use his head start to develop customer loyalty to an extent that makes his clientele distrustful of imitations. These advantages of the natural head start can lastfor years, and in a free market economy they should provide all the incentive necessary for producers accustomed to operating amid the "perennial gales" of competition. Since so much inventive activity occurs without patent protection, it is clear that this position is not purely speculative. UNDER FEDERAL CONTRACTS, No less important as a source of disenchantment with existing patent arrangements has been the greater role played by the federal government in financing R & D. Between 55 and 60 per cent of the funds for industrialR & D now comes from the public trough. Perhaps the most notable feature of this arrangement is the total absence of all financial risk on the part of thefirms conducting R & D. 8 Virtually all R & D contracts let by federal agencies are set up on a "cost-plus" basis. No results are guaranteed, ofcourse. But no matter how difficult or expensive a projects turns out to be, the costs are borne by the government. In addition, there is no market to be developed. The market is there, waiting eagerly, in theform of the federal agency that commissioned the R & D. In short, the whole thing is virtually a riskless venture for the contracting corporation. If there is a possible risk, it is that of contract cancellation. But even this can hardly be described as a risk, for the firms have invested none of their own funds and they are always granted a return well in excess of costs. If there are no risks, there is no justification for a monopoly profit such as might accrue from patent rights. Yet more than 85 per cent of federal funds for industrial R &D are disbursed under contracts that permit the contracting firms to retain any patents that develop out of the R & D performed for the government. (It should be noted that the federal government always acquires an irrevocable, nonexclusive, royalty-free license to the patent when title remains with the contractor.) All R & D contracts let by the Department of Defense permit the contractor toretain title, and this department disburses 85 to 90 per cent of all R & D funds contracted out to industry. The other principal agencies involved are the Atomic Energy Commission (AEC) and the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA); in general, these agencies follow the practice of retaining patent rights developing out of R & D performed under their auspices. But they have very liberal waiver privileges and often allowthe con- tractors to retain title to such patents. The AEC has waived title to about one-third of the total patents that havearisen out of its contracted research; as yet there is no similarly specific informationregarding NASA practices. Here, then, is a clear-cut case of misuse of the patent system. When there is a total absence of financial risk, patent rights are clearly not needed to serve as an inducement to invent and innovate. Hence the granting of patent privileges to contracting firms gives society none of the alleged advantages of the patent system, while foisting upon us all of its disadvantages. MEDIA POORLY HANDLED, And the disadvantages are many. Aside from the manifold abuses of the patent system, there are drawbacks inherent in the system, over and above the restrictions on the rate of diffu- �sion of new inventions. It is these drawbacks that have been the target of much of the recent criticism. The inherently narrower range of application of new inventions under the patent laws means that most firms are cut off from the most advanced technology and are thereby forced to produce poorer quality products with poorer quality techniques. Even the quality of their research is necessarily poorer, because it is not based upon the most up-todate knowledge. Any effort to incorporate and build upon knowledge contained in extant patents entails patent infringement. Hence, not only is the diffusion of existing knowledge and techniques limited by patents, but the ability to extend the boundaries of knowledge is also obstructed and retarded. Exponents of the patent system often argue that, far from retarding the diffusion process, patents speed it up by providing the information contained in the patents themselves. What is overlooked in this argument is the slipshod method of identifying inventions in patent applications. Patents can be obtained without disclosing all information that must beknown to make use of the patented inventions. Besides, a considerable body of information relevant to a given invention is nonpatentable. This information is called"know-how." In the case of a new product, this know-how includes the experience accumulated in the early stages of production, during which many minor modifications may be madein the design or production process. Similarly, invaluable information, which is usually not published, is often accumulated during the trial runs of new processes. Sometimes managements prefer to withhold certain information from public view, re- gardless of whether or not it is pa ten table. In all these cases, the public does not receive the information that partly justifies the grant of monopoly rights to the patentee. Instead, the patentee obtains the bargaining power attached to a legal monopoly and also continues to enjoy whatever bargaining strength he can derive from possession of a trade secret. It must be remembered that the granting of patent rights involves a wastage of whatever resources competitors use to "invent around" the patent in order to enable them to compete with the patentees in the same market. We have observed that the primary motive behind today's privately financed industrial research is the desire to enlarge, or at least preserve, the performing company's share of the market. When one firm discovers a new or improved product or process, its competitors are bound to fol- low suit. But when the first has obtained a patent, the rivals are forced to waste resources in trying to find other ways of accomplishing the same thing. Only occasionally does this duplication result in something better. In most cases, society would benefit much more if the same resources were devoted to enlarging the boundaries of scientific and technical knowledge. ALTERNATIVES: ABOLISH SYSTEM, In theface of all these criticisms, what are the alternatives to the present operation of the patent system? Specifically, how can the patent laws be brought up to date? At one extreme, we have the suggestion that the patent system be abolished altogether in order to maximize the applications of all inventions. This proposal suggests, in effect, thatall knowledge be made free. Those who reject thisalternative say that a decline in the gross receipts of inventors would follow, because the increased use of an inventionwould result in lowerprices for the products based on it. The decline in gross revenues, in turn, would damp incentives and, therefore, reduce invention. If this argument is valid, it would be necessary to proceed one step further and show that, overall, the negative effects of a reduced rate of inventionwould exceed the positive effects of a wider use of the inventions made. However, it is not certain that the argument is valid. Eliminating patent rights would open territory now occupied by patent holders for cultivation by all. With over a half-million patents inforce today, research organizations are inhibited from pursuing projects in fields hedged in by patents. Eliminating patents would increase the number of inventors likely to cultivate a given area as well as increase the number of areas of technology open to further cultivation.This opens up the possibility that more invention would be forthcoming without the patent system than with it. At present, there is simply no way of 9 �determining whether more or fewer inventionswould be madewithout a patent system. One thing is certain. If the patent system were abolished, the number of inventions kept secret would increase. But it would be hard to estimate the magnitude of such a development. Actually, it is possible that industries are already very secretive about their discoveries. Otherwise, in the face of the great boom in privately financed R & D during the past two decades, why hasn't there been a similar expansion in the number of patents granted? Two more serious objections to the idea of abolishing the patent system exist. One is thatsome applied research is very expensive and its outcome is uncertain. This type of research is probably in need of the extra spur provided by the possibility of temporary monopoly profits accruing from patents. Evidence indicates that industry tendsto concentrate mostof its research on inventionsfeaturing a quickpayoff. As a result, muchinventive activity is concerned with slight, marginal improvements, featuring process and product development of a very low order of importance. If little or no incentive is provided for conducting expensive and risky projects, werun the danger of seeing these projects eliminatedalmost completely from the industrial laboratory. Such a development could have dire consequences for our long-run technological and economic progress. CREATE AWARDS PROGRAM, To meet theseobjections, but at the same time to make knowledge free so as to maximize its use, it has been suggested thatthe patent system be abolished and replaced by a system of awards from the public treasury. Inventions could be purchased outright or, alternatively, paid for over time on a royalty basis—that is, the amount of the payments could be varied in accordance with the degree of utilization or commercial value of a new product or process. Then the inventions would be dedicated to the public. All incentives for "inventing around" new inven- tionswould beeliminated, and the waste of very scarce resources in duplicating research would stop. Finally, an awardssystem would remove any advantages of industrial secrecy. For an inventor would have nothing to gain from hoarding his knowledge. The reason? Simply that the national output is bound to be greater than when its use is restricted by monopoly. Hence, society would be disposed to pay the inventor more than he could earn from a monopoly on his invention. OR DUAL PATENTS, It has been suggested that, instead of doing away with the patent system, we should update it by instituting a system of dual patents. Long-term patents, like the 17-year ones presently issued, would be limited to those inventionsinvolvingmajor technological breakthroughs, because they are to the greatest value andordinarily the research and development involved is very costly. Inventions of lesser importance would be granted patents of much shorter duration. Creating a class of petty patents for minor inventions would eliminate much harassing infringement litigation; it would also strike at industrial monopolies builtupon the acquisition of large aggregates of patents or the continual acquisition of new patents as old patent privileges expire. GOVERNMENT-OWNED PATENTS, Probably the least radical (but notnecessarilythe best) suggestion for accommodating the patent system to the modern era is that the government retain title to all patent rights arising out of government-sponsored research. The government would then issue nonexclusive, royalty-free licenses to all comers. In this case, it is argued, no violations of the principles of the patent system would occur, because these principles are inapplicable when the contractors are relieved of all financial risks. Furthermore, substantial advantages accrue to contractors from government-financed R & D that are quite independent of patent privileges: The ability of the performing firms to acquire scientific and technical personnel is enhanced. It is a fact that many companies seek government contracts just to enable them to keep their R & D staffs together. (The government often parcels out R & D contracts to keep for the same reason personnel availablefor future government needs.) In addition, recruiting costs can be charged to overhead; in the case of defense contracts, these charges are paid by the government. The performing firm ipso facto acquires a considerable body of know-how relating to the invention. The withdrawal of patent rights from firms performing R&D at government expense could not deprive them of this often priceless knowhow and the tremendous advantage it gives them in any ensuing competition with otherfirms. Finally, many technological developments resulting from government-financed R&D have direct and immediate commercial applications. In recent years, the application of radioisotopes, jet propulsion and sterilization of food by radiation are just a few examples of such applications. As a result of research financed largely by the government during World War 11, technological developments appeared in the form — Continued onrf 3' 10 �— Who will go to college and where?

They came from wealthy families, middleincome families, poor families: from all races, here and abroad: from virtually every religious faith. Over the next ten years, the number of students will grow enormously. Around 1964the long-predicted "tidal wave" of young people, born in the postwar era and steadily moving upward through the nation's school systems ever since, will engulf the college campuses. By 1970 the population between the ages of 18 and 21—now around 10.2 million—will have grown to 14.6 million. College enrollment, now less than 4 million, will be at least 6.4 million, and perhaps far more. The character of the student bodies will also have changed. More than half of the full-time students in the I AST fall, country's four-year colleges are already coming from lower-middle arsi low income groups. With expanding scholarship, loan, icd self-help programs, this trend will continue strong. Non-white college students—who in the past decade have more than doubledin number and now compose about J per cent or" the total enrollment —will continue to increase. (Non-whites formed 11.4 percent of the U.S. population in the 1960 census.) The number of married students will grow. The average age of students will continue its recent rise. The sheerforce of this great wave of students is enough to take one's breath aw^iy. Against this force, what chance has .American higher education to stand strong, to maintain standards, to improve quality, to keep sight of the they are keenly aware of it. But for reasons of finance, of faculty limitations, of space, of philosophy, of function, of geographic location —or of a combination of these and other restrictions—they cannot grow. Many other institutions, public and private, ore expanding their enrollment capacities and will continue to do so: Private institutions: Currently, colleges and universities under independent auspices enroll around 1,500,000 students—some 40 per cent of the U.S. college population. In the future, many privately supported institutions will grow, but slowly in comparison with publicly supported institutions. Thus the total number of students at private institutions will rise, but their percentage of the total college population will become smaller. Public institutions: State and locally supported colleges and universities are expanding their capacity steadily. In the years ahead theywill carry by far the heaviest share of America's growing student population. Despite their growth, many of themare alreadyfeeling the strain of the burden. Many state institutions, once committed to accepting any resident with a high-school diploma, are now imposing entrance requirements upon applicants. Others, required by law or long tradition not to turn away any high-schoolgraduate who applies, resort in desperation to a high flunk-out rate in the freshman year in order to whittle down their student bodies to manageable size. In other states, coordinated systems of higher education are being devised to accommodate individual student? And. as part of the gigantic population swell, what chances ha\e your children? to both QUESTIONS, there are some encouraging answers. At the same time, the intelligent parent will not ignore some danger signals. FINDING ROOM FOR EVERYBODY NOT every COLLEGE or university in the country is able to expand its student capacity. A number have concluded that, for one persuasive reason or another, thev must maintain their present enrollments. They are not blind to the need of American higher education, in the aggregate, toaccommodate more students in the years ahead; indeed, C9FYMGHT I«2 BY EDfTORIAL PROJICTS FOR EDUCATION �students of differing aptitudes, high-school academic records, and career goals. Two-year colleges: Growing at a faster rate than any other segment of U.S. higher education is a group comprising both public and independently supported institutions: the two-year, or "junior," colleges. Approximately 600 now exist in the United States, and experts estimate that an average of at least 20 per year will be established in the coming decade. More than 400 of the two-year institutions are community colleges, located within commuting distance of their students. Thesecolleges provide three mainservices: educationfor students who will later transfer to four-year colleges or universities (studies show they often do as well as those who go directly from high school to a four-year institution, and sometimes better), terminal training for vocations (more and more important as jobsrequire higher technical skills), and adult education and community culturalactivities. Evidence of their importance: One out of every four students beginning higher education today does so in a two-year college. By 1975, the ratio is likely to be one in two. Branch campuses: To meet local demands for educational institutions, some state universities have opened branches in population centers distant from their main campuses. The trend is likely to continue. On occasion, however, the "branch campus" concept may conflict with the "community college" concept. In Ohio, for example, proponents of community two-year colleges are currently arguing that locally controlled community institutions are the best answer to the state's college-enrollment problems. But Ohio State University, Ohio University, and Miami University, which operate off-campus centers and whose leaders advocate the establishment of more, say that taxpayers get bettervalue at lower cost from a university-run branch-campus system. Coordinated systems: To meet both present and future demands for higher education, a number of states are attempting to coordinate their existing colleges and universities and to lay long-range plans for developing new ones. California, a leaderin such efforts, has a "master plan" involving not only the three main types of publicly supported institutions—the state university, state colleges, and locally sponsored two-year colleges. Private institutions voluntarily take part in the master planning, also. With at least 661,000 students expected in their colleges and universities by 1975, Californians have worked out a plan under which every high-school graduate will be eligible to attend a juniorcollege; the top one-third will be eligible for admission to a state college; and the top one-eighth will be eligible to go directly from high school to the University of California. The plan is flexible: students who prove themselves in a junior college, for ILLUSTRATIONS BY PEGGY SOUCHECK example, may transfer to the university. If past experience is a guide, many will—with notable academic success. THUS IT is likely that somewhere in America's nearly universities there will be room 2,000 colleges and for your children. How will you—and they—find it? On the same day in late May of last year, 33,559 letters went out to young people who had applied for admission to the 1961 freshman class in one or more of the eight schools that compose the Ivy League. Of these letters, 20,248 were rejection notices. Not all of the 20,248 had been misguided in applying. Admissions officers testify that the quality of the 1961 applicants was higher than ever before, that the competition was therefore intense, and that many applicants who 'might have been welcomed in other years had to be turned away in '61. Even so, as in years past, a number of the applicants had been the victims of bad advice—from parents, teachers, and friends. Had they applied to other institutions, equally or better suited to their aptitudes and abilities, they would have been accepted gladly, avoiding the bitter disappointment, and the occasional tragedy, of a turndown. The Ivy League experience can be, and is, repeated in dozens of other colleges and universities every spring. Yet, while some institutions are rejecting more applications than they can accept, others (perhaps better qualified to meet the rejected students' needs) still have openings in theirfreshman classes onregistration day. Educators, both in the colleges and in the secondary schools, are aware of the problems in "marrying" the right students to the right colleges. An intensive effort is under way to relieve them. In the future, you may expect: ► Better guidance by high-school counselors, based on �improved testing methodsand on improvedunderstanding of individual colleges and their offerings. colleges and univer► Better definitions, by individual sities, of their philosophies of admission, their criteriafor choosing students, their strengths in meeting the needs of certain types of student and their weakness in meeting the needs of others. ► Less parental pressure on their offspring to attend: the college or university that mother or father attended; the college or university that "everybody else's children" are attending; the college or university that enjoys the greatest sports-page prestige, the greatest financial-page prestige, or the greatest society-page prestige in town. ► More awareness that children are different from one another, that colleges are different from one another, and that a happy match of children and institutions is within thereach ofany parent (and student) who takes the pains to pursue it intelligently. ► Exploration—but probably, in the near future, no widespreadadoption—of a central clearing-house for college applications, with students stating their choices of colleges in preferential order and colleges similarly listing their choices of students. The "clearing-house" would thereupon match students and institutions according to their preferences. Despite the likely growth of these practices, applyingto college may well continue to be part-chaos, part-panic, part-snobbishness for years to come. Butwith the aid of enlightened parents and educators, it will be less so, tomorrow, than itis today. Whatwill they find in college? college of tomorrow—the one your children willfind when they get in—is likely to differ from -^- the college you knew in your days as a student. The students themselves will be different Curricula will be different. Extracurricular activities will be different, in many respects, from what they were in your day. The college year, as well as the college day, may be different. Modes ofstudy will be different. With one or two conspicuous exceptions, the changes will be for the better. But for better or for worse, changes therewill be. f | I THE NEW BREED OF STUDENTS come as news to no parents that their children are differentfrom themselves. Academically, they are proving to be more seriousthan many of their predecessor generations. Too serious, some say. They enter college with an eye already set on the vocation they hope to pursue when they get out; college, to many, is simply the means to that end. Many students plan to marry as soon as they can afford to, and some even before they can afford to. They want families, homes, a fair amount of leisure, good jobs, security. They dream not of a far-distant future; today's students are impatient to translate their dreams into reality, soon. it will Like most generalizations, these should be qualified. Therewill be studentswho are quite far from the average, and this is as it should be. But with international tensions, recurrent war threats, military-service obligations, and talk of utter destruction of the race, the tendency is for the young to want to cram their lives full of living— with no unnecessary delays, please. At the moment, there is littlelikelihood that the urge to pace one'slife quickly and seriously will soon pass. This is the tempo the adult world has set for its young, and they will marcß doubletime to it. Economic backgrounds of students will continue to grow more diverse. In recent years, thanks to scholarships, student loans, and the spectacular growth of public educational institutions, higher education has become less and less the exclusive province of the sons and daughters of thewell-to-do. The spread of scholarship and loanprograms geared to family income levelswill intensify this trend, not only in low-tuitionpublic colleges and universities but in high-tuition private institutions. Students from foreign countries willflock to the U.S.for college education, barring a totally deteriorated international situation. Last year 53,107foreign students, from 143 countries and political areas, were enrolled in 1,666 American colleges and universities—almost a 10 per cent increase over the year before. Growing numbers of African and Asian students accounted for the rise; the growth is virtually certain to continue. The presence of �such students on U.S. campuses—so per cent of them are undergraduates—has already contributed to a greater international awareness on the part of American students. The influence is bound to grow. Foreign study by U.S. students is increasing. In 1959-60, the mostrecent yearreported, 15,306 were enrolled in 63 foreign countries, a 12 per cent increase in a period of 12 months. Students traveling abroad during summer vacationsadd impressive numbers to this total. WHAT THEY'LL STUDY studies are in the course of change, and the changes will affect your children. A new toughness in academic standards will reflect the great amount of knowledge that must be imparted in the college years. Inthe sciences, changes are particularly obvious. Every decade, writes Thomas Stelson of Carnegie Tech, 25 per cent of the curriculum must be abandoned, due to obsolescence. J. Robert Oppenheimer puts it another way: nearly everything now known in science, he says, "was not in any book when most of us went to school." There will be differences in the social sciences and humanities, as well. Language instruction, now getting new emphasis, is an example. The use of language laboratories, with tape recordings and other mechanical devices, is already popular and will spread. Schools once preoccupied almost entirely with science and technology {e.g., colleges of engineering, leading medical schools) have now integrated social and humanistic studies into their curricula, and the trend will spread to other institutions. International emphasis also will grow. The big push will be related to nations and regions outside the Western World. For thefirst time on alarge scale, the involvement of U.S. higher education will be truly global. This nonWestern orientation, says one college president (who is seconded by many others) is"the new frontier in American higher education." For undergraduates, comparative studies in both the social sciences and the humanities are likely to be stressed. The hoped-for result: betterunderstanding of the human experience in all cultures. Mechanics of teaching will improve. "Teaching machines" will be used more and more, as educators assess their value and versatility (see Who will leach them? on the following pages). Closed-circuit televisionwill carry a lecturer's voiceand closeup views of his demonstrations to hundreds of students simultaneously. TVand microfilm will grow in usefulness as library tools, enabling institutions to duplicate, in small space, theresources of distant libraries and specialized rare-book collections. Tape recordings will put music and drama, performed by masters, on every campus. Computers, alreadybecoming almost commonplace, will be used for more and more study and research purposes. This availability of resources unheard-of in their parents' day will enable undergraduates to embark on extensive programs of independent study. Under careful faculty guidance, independent study will equip students with research ability, problem-solving techniques, and bibliographic savvy which shouldbe of immensevalue to them throughout their lives. Many of yesterday's college graduates still don't know how to work creatively in unfamiliar intellectual territory: to pinpoint a problem, formulate intelligent questions, use a library, map a research project. Therewill be far fewer gaps of this sort in the training of tomorrow's students. Great new stress on quality will be found at all institutions. Impending explosive growth of the college population has put the spotlight, for years, on handling large numbers of students; this has worried educators who feared that quality might be lost in a national preoccupation with quantity. Big institutions, particularly those with "growth situations," are now putting emphasis on maintaining high academic standards—and even raising them —while handling high enrollments, too. Honors programs, opportunities for undergraduate research, insistence on creditable scholastic achievement are symptomatic of the concernfor academic excellence. It's important to realize that this emphasis on quality will be found not only in four-year colleges and universities, but in two-year institutions, also. "Each [type of institution] shall strive for excellence in its sphere," is how the California master plan for higher education puts it;the same idea is pervading higher education at all levels throughout the nation. WHERE'S THE FUN? extracurricular activity has been undergoing subtle changes at colleges and universities for years and is likely �to continue doing so. Student apathy toward some activities—political clubs, for example—is lessening. Toward other activities—the light, the frothy—apathy appears to be growing. Thereis less interest in spectator sports, more interest in participant sports thatwill be playable for most of a lifetime. Student newspapers, observes the dean of students at a college on the Eastern seaboard, no longer rant about band uniforms, closing hours for fraternity parties, and the need for bigger pep rallies. Sororities are disappearing from the campuses of women's colleges. "Fun festivals" are granted less time and importance by students; at one big midwestern university, for example, the events of May Week —formerly a five-day wingding involving floats, honorary-fraternity initiations, facultystudent baseball, and crowning of the May Queen—are now crammed into one half-day. In spite of the wellpublicized antics of a relatively few roof-raisers (e.g., student rioters at several summer resorts last Labor Day, student revelers at Florida resorts during spring-vacation periods), a new seriousness is the keynote of most student activities. "The faculty and administration are more resistant to these changes than the students are," jokes the president of a women's college in Pittsburgh. "The typical student congress wants to abolish the junior prom; the dean is the one who feels nostalgic about it: 'That's the one event Mrs. Jones and I looked forward to each year.'" A QUEST FOR ETHICAL VALUES education, more and more educators are saying, "should be much more than the mere retention of subject matter." Here are three indications of how the thoughts of many educators are running: "If [the student] enters college and pursues either an intellectual smorgasbord, intellectual Teutonism, or the cash register," says a midwestern educator, "his education will have advanced very little, if at all. The odds are quite good that he will simply have exchanged one form of Certainly there is no incombarbarism for another . . patibility between being well-informed and being stupid; such a condition makes the student a danger to himself and society." Says another observer: "I prophesy that a more serious intention and mood will progressively characterize the campus This means, most of all, commitment to the use ofone's learning in fruitful, creative, and noble ways." "The responsibility of the educated man," says the provost of a state university in New England, "is that he make articulate to himselfand to otherswhat he is willing to bet his life on."

Much of the problem istraceable to money. Salaries paid to college teachers lagged far behind those paid elsewhere in jobs requiring similarly high talents. While real incomes, as well as dollarincomes, climbedfor most other groups of Americans, the real incomes of college professors not merely stood still but dropped noticeably.

Meanwhile, other developments provide grounds for cautious optimism about the effectiveness of the teaching In your childrenwill TEACHING MACHINES for the improvement of instruction at all levels of schooling, including college, are programs of learning presented through mechanical selfteaching devices, popularly called "teaching machines." The most widely used machine, invented by Professor Frederick Skinner of Harvard, is a box-like device with holding great promise receive. THE TV SCREEN long ago found only in the lounges of dormitories and student unions, is now an accepted teaching tool on many campuses. Its use will grow. "To report on the use of television in teaching," says Arthur S. Adams, past president of the American Council on Education, "is like trying to catch a galloping horse." For teaching closeup work in dentistry, surgery, and laboratory sciences, closed-circuit TV is unexcelled. The television, not number of students who can gaze into a patient's gaping mouth while a teacher demonstrates how to fill a cavity is limited; when their place is taken by a TV camera and the students cluster around TV screens, scorescan watch —and see more, too. Television, at large schools, has theadditionalvirtue of extending the effectiveness of a single teacher. Instead of giving the same lecture (replete with the same jokes) three times to students filling the campus's largest hall, a professor can now give it once—and be seen in as many auditoriums and classrooms as are needed to accommodate allregistrants in his course. Both the professor and the jokes are fresher, as a result. How effective is TV? Some carefully controlled studies show that students taught from the fluorescent screen do as well in some types of course (e.g., lectures) as those sitting in the teacher's presence, and sometimes better. But TV standardizes instruction to a degree that is not always desirable. And, reports Henry H. Cassirer of UNESCO, who has analyzed television teaching in the U.S., Canada, Great Britain, France, Italy, Russia, and Japan, students do not want to lose contact with their teachers. They want to beable to ask questions as instruction progresses. Mr. Cassirer found effective, on the other hand, the combination of a central TV lecturer with classroom instructors who prepare students for the lecture and then discuss it with them afterward. three windows in its top. When the student turns a crank, an item of information, along with a question about it, appears in the lefthand window (A). The student writes his answer to the question on a paper strip exposed in another window (B). The student turns the crank again— and the correct answer appears at window A. Simultaneously, this action moves the student's answer under a transparent shield covering window C, so that the student can see, but not change, what he has written. If the answer is correct, the student turns another crank, causing the tape to be notched; the machine will by-pass this item when the student goes through the series of questions again. Questions are arranged so that each item builds on previous information the machine has given. Such self-teaching devices have these advantages: ► Each student can proceed at his own pace, whereas classroom lectures must be paced to the "average" student —too fast for some, too slow for others. "With a machine," comments a University of Rochester psychologist, "the brighter student could go ahead at a veryfast pace." ► The machine makes examinations and testing a rewarding and learning experience, rather than a punishment. If his answer is correct, the student is rewarded with thatknowledge instantly; thisreinforces his memory of the right information. If the answer is incorrect, the machine provides the correct answer immediately. In large classes, no teacher can provide such frequent—and individual—rewards and immediate corrections. The machine smooths the ups and downs in the learn- ► �ing process by removing some external sources of anxieties, such as fear of falling behind. ► If a student is having difficulty with a subject, the teacher can check back over his machine tapes and find the exact point at which the student began to go wrong. Correction of the difficulty can be made with precision, not gropingly as is usually necessary in machineless classes. Not only do the machines give promise of accelerating the learning process; they introduce an individuality to learning which has previously been unknown. "Where television holds the danger of standardized instruction," saidJohn W. Gardner,president of the Carnegie Corporation of New York, in a report to then-President Eisenhower, "the self-teaching device can individualize instruction in ways not now possible—and the student is always an active participant." Teaching machines are being tested, and used, on a number of college campuses and seem certain to figure prominently in the teaching of your children. Will they graduate? an administrator at a university in the South not long ago (he was the director of admissions, no less, and he spoke not entirely in jest): "I'm happy I went to college back when I did, instead of now. Today, the admissions office probably wouldn't let me in. If they did, I doubtthat I'd last more than a semester or two." Getting into college is a problem, nowadays. Staying there, once in, can be even more difficult. Here are some of the principal reasons why many students fail to finish: Academic failure: For one reason or another—not always connected with a lack of aptitude or potential scholastic ability—many studentsfail to make the grade. Low entrance requirements, permitting students to enter college without sufficient aptitude orprevious preparation, also play a big part. In schools where only a high-school diploma isrequired for admission, drop-outs and failures during the first two years average (nationally) between 60 and 70 percent. Normally selective admissions procedures usually cut thisrate down to between 20and 40 per cent. Where admissions are based on keen competition, the attrition rate is 10 per cent or less. FUTURE outlook: High schools are tightening their academic standards, insisting upon greater effort by students, and teaching the techniques of note-taking, effective studying, and library use. Such measures will inevitably better the chances of studentswhen they reach college. Better testing and counseling programs should help, by guiding less-able students away from institutions where they'll be beyond their depth and into institutions Said better suited to their abilitiesand needs. Growing popular of the two-year college concept will also help, as will the adoption of increasingly selective admissions procedures by four-year colleges and universities. Parents can help by encouraging activities designed to find the right academic spot for their children; by recogacceptance nizing their children's strengths and limitations; by creating an atmosphere in which children will be encouraged to read, to study, to develop curiosity, to accept new ideas. Poor motivation: Students drop out ofcollege "not only because they lack ability but because they do not have the motivation for serious study," say persons who have studied the attrition problem. This aspect of students' failure to finish college is attracting attention from educafors andadministrators both incolleges andin secondary schools. future outlook: Extensive research is under way to determine whether motivation can be measured. The "Personal Values Inventory," developed by scholars at Colgate University, is one promising yardstick, providing information about a student's long-range persistence, personal self-control, and deliberateness (as opposed to rashness). Many colleges and universities are participating in the study, in an effort to establish the efficacy of the tests. Thus far, report the Colgate researchers, "the tests have successfully differentiated between over- and underachievers in every college included in the sample." Parents can help by their own attitudes toward scholastic achievement and by encouraging their children to �develop independence from adults. "This, coupled with the reflected image that a person acquires from his parents—an image relating to persistence and other traits and values—may have much to do with his orientation toward academic success," the Colgate investigators say. Money: Most parents think they know the cost of sending a child to college. But, a recent survey shows, relatively few of them actually do. The average parent, the survey disclosed, underestimates college costs by roughly 40 per cent. In such a situation, parental savings for college purposes often run out quickly—and, unless the student can fill the gap with scholarship aid, a loan, or earnings from part-time employment, he drops out. future outlook: A surprisingly high proportion of financial dropouts are children of middle-income, not low-income, families. If parents would inform themselves fully about current college costs —and reinform themselves periodically, since prices tend to go up—a substantial part of this problem could be solved in the future by realistic family savings programs. Other probabilities: growing federal and state (as well as private) scholarship programs; growing private and governmental loan programs. Jobs: Some students, anxious to strike out on their own, are luredfrom college by jobsrequiring littleskill but offering attractive starting salaries. Many such students may have hesitated about going to college in the first place and drop out at the first opportunity. future outlook: The lure of jobs will always tempt some students, but awareness of the value of completing college—for lifelong financial gain, iffor no other reason —is increasing. Emotional problems: Some students find themselves unable to adjust to college life and drop out as a result. Often such problems begin when a student chooses a college that's "wrong" for him. It may accord himtoo much or too littlefreedom; its pace may be too swift for him, resulting in frustration, or too slow, resulting in boredom; it may be "too social" or "not social enough." future outlook: With expanding and more skillful guidance counseling and psychological testing, more students can expect to be steered to the "right" college environment. This won'tentirely eliminatethe emotionalmaladjustmentproblem, but it should ease it substantially. Marriage: Many students marry while still in college butfully expect to continue their education.A number do go on (sometimes wives withdraw from college to earn money to pay their husbands' educational expenses). Others have children before graduating and must drop out ofcollege in order to support theirfamily. future outlook: The trend toward early marriage shows no signs of abating. Large numbers of parents openly or tacitly encourage children to go steady and to marry at an early age. More and more colleges areprovid- ing living quarters for married undergraduate students. Some even have day-care facilities for students' young children. Attitudes and customs in their "peer groups" will continue to influence young people on the question of marrying early; in some groups, it's frowned upon; in others, it's the thing to do. and universities are deeply interested in rinding solutions to theattrition problem in all its aspects. Today, at many institutions, enrollment resembles a pyramid: the freshman class, at the bottom, is big; the sophomore class is smaller, the junior class still smaller, and the senior class a mere fraction of the freshman group. Such pyramids are wasteful, expensive, inefficient. They represent hundreds, sometimes thousands, of personal tragedies: youngpeople who didn'tmake it. The goal of the colleges is to change the pyramid into a straight-sided figure, with as many people graduating as enter the freshman class. In the college of tomorrow, the sides willnot yet have attained theperfect vertical, but—as a result of improved placement, admissions, and academic practices—they should slope considerably lessthan they do now. Colleges �What will college have done for them? your children are like about 33 per cent of today's college graduates, theywill not end theirformal education when they get their bachelor's degrees. On they'll go—to graduate school, to a professional school, or to an advanced technological institution. There are good reasons for their continuing: ► In four years, nowadays, one can only begin to scratch the surface of the body of knowledge in his specialty. To teach, or to hold down a high-ranking job in industry or government, graduate study is becoming more and more useful and necessary. ► Automation, in addition to eliminating jobs in unskilledcategories, will havean increasingly strongeffect on persons holding jobs in middle management and middle technology. Competition for survival will be intense. Many students will decide that one way of competing advantageously is to take as much formal education beyond the baccalaureate as they can get. ► One way in which women can compete successfully with menfor high-level positions is to be equipped with a graduate degree when they enter the job market. ► Students heading for school-teaching careers will increasingly be urged to concentrate on substantive studies in their undergraduate years and to take methodology courses in a postgraduate schooling period. The same will be true in many other fields. ► Shortages are developing in some professions, e.g., medicine. Intensive efforts will be made to woo more top undergraduates into professional schools, and opportunities in short-supplied professions will become increasingly IF attractive. ► "Skills," predicts a Presidential committee, "may become obsoletein our fast-moving industrial society. Sound education provides a basis for adjustment to constant and abrupt change—a base on which new skills may be built." The moralwill not be lost on tomorrow's students. In addition to having such practical motives, tomorrow's students will be influenced by a growing tendency to expose them to graduate-level work while they are still undergraduates. Independent study will give them a taste of the intellectual satisfaction to be derived from learning on their own. Graduate-style seminars, with theirstimulating give-and-take offact and opinion, will exert a strong appeal. As a result, for able students the distinction between undergraduate and graduate work will become blurred and meaningless. Instead of arbitrary insistence upon learning in two-year or four-year units, there will be more attention paid to the length of time a student requires—and desires—to immerse himself inthe specialty that interests him. A ND even with graduate or professional study, education is not likely to end for your children. ■4- ■*■ Administrators in thefield ofadult education— or, more accurately, "continuing education"—expect that within a decade the number of students under their wing will exceed the number of undergraduates in American colleges and universities. "Continuing education," says Paul A. McGhee, dean of New York University's Division of General Education (where annually some 17,000 persons enroll in around 1,200 non-credit courses) "is primarily the education of the already educated." The more education you have, the more you are likely to want. Since more and more people will go to college, it follows that more and more people will seek knowledge throughout their lives. We are, say adult-education leaders, departingfrom the old notion that one works to live. In this day of automationand urbanization, a newconcept is emerging: "time," not "work," is the paramount factor in people's lives. Leisure takes on a new meaning: along with golf, boating, /\ �and partying, it now includes study. And he who forsakes gardeningfor studying is less and less likely to be regarded as the neighborhood oddball. Certain to vanish are the last vestiges of the stigma that has long attached to "night school." Although the concept of night school as a place for educating only the illiterate has changed, many who have studied at night— either for credit or for fun and intellectual stimulationhave felt out of step, somehow. But such views are obsolescent and soon will be obsolete. Thus far, American colleges and universities—with notable exceptions—have not led the way in providing continuing educationfor their alumni. Most alumni have beenforced to rely on local boards of education and other civic and social groups to provide lectures, classes, discussion groups. These have been inadequate, and institutions of higher education can be expected to assume unprecedented roles in the continuing-education field. Alumni and alumnae are certain to demand that they take such leadership. Wrote Clarence B. Randall in The New York Times Magazine: "At institution after institution therehas come into being an organized and articulate group of devoted graduates who earnestly believe... that the college stillhas much to offer them." When colleges and universitiesrespond on a large scale to the growing demand for continuing education, the variety of courses is likely to be enormous. Already, in institutions where continuing education is an accepted role, the range isfrom space technology to existentialism to funeral direction. (When the University of California offered non-credit courses in the first-named subject to engineers and physicists, thecombinedenrollmentreached 4,643.) "From theworld of astronauts, to the highest of ivory towers, to six feet under," is how one wag has described the phenomenon. of your children, after they are graduated from tomorrow's colleges: ► They'll haveconsiderably morepolitical sophistication than did the average person who marched upto get a diploma in their parents' day.Political parties now have active student groups on many campuses and publish material beamed specifically at undergraduates. Studentgovernment organizations are developing sophisticated procedures. Nonpartisan as well as partisan groups, operating on a national scale, are fanning student interest in current political affairs. ► They'll have an internationalorientationthat many of their parents lacked when they left the campuses. The presence of more foreign students in their classes, the emphasis on courses dealing with global affairs, the front pages of their daily newspapers will all contribute to this change. They willfind their international outlook useful: a recent government report predicts that "25 yearsfrom now, one college graduate infour willfind at least part of Some other likely features his career abroad in such places as Rio de Janeiro, Dakar, Beirut,Leopoldville, Sydney, Melbourne, or Toronto." ► They'll have an awareness of unanswered questions, to an extent that their parents probably did not have. Principles that once were regarded (and taught) as incontrovertible fact are now regarded (and taught) as subject to constant alteration, thanks to thefrequent toppling of long-held ideas in today's explosive sciences and technologies. Says one observer: "My student generation, if it looked at the world, didn't know it was 'loaded'. Today's student has no such ignorance." ► They'll possess a broad-based liberal education, but in their jobs many of them are likely to specialize more narrowly than did their elders. "It is a rare bird today who knows allabout contemporary physics and allabout modern mathematics," said one of the world's most distinguished scientists not long ago, "and if he exists, I haven'tfound him. Because of the rapid growth of science it has become impossible for oneman to master any large part of it; therefore, we have the necessity of specialization." Your daughters are likely to be impatient with the prospect of devoting their lives solely to unskilled labor as housewives. Not only will more of tomorrow's women graduates embark upon careers when they receive their diplomas, but more of them will keep up their contacts with vocational interests even during their period of childrearing. And even before the children are grown, more of them will return to the working force, either as paid employees or as highly skilledvolunteers. ► UPON THEIR OWN OUTLOOK, parents Of tomorrow's graduates will find some of the prospects good, some of them deplorable. In essence, however, the likely trends oftomorrow are only continuations of trends that are clearly established today, and moving inexorably. DEPENDING �Who will pay—and how? you be able to afford a college education for your children? The tuition? The travel expense? The room rent? The board? Inaddition: Will you be able to pay considerably more than is written on the price-tags for these items? The stark truth is that you—or somebody— must pay, if your children are to go to college and get an education as good as the education you received. Will Here is where colleges and universities get their money: From taxes paid to governments at all levels: city, state, and federal. Governments now appropriate an estimated $2.9 billion in support of higher education every year. By 1970government support will have grown to roughly $4 billion. From privategifts and grants. These now provide nearly $1 billion annually. By 1970 they must provide about $2,019 billion.Here is where this money is likely to come from: \lumni . — individuals Business corporations :oundations Religious denominations Total voluntary support. 1!170 "Jon-alumn bob,000,000 (2b%; (25%; (25%; 262,000,000 (13%; 242,000,000 (12%; 505,000,000 * 505,000,000 $2,019,000,000 From endowment earnings. These now provide around $210 million a year. By 1970 endowment will produce around $333 million a year. From tuition and fees. These now provide around $1.2 billion (about 21 per cent ofcollege and university funds). By 1970they must produce about $2.1 billion(about 23.5 per cent ofallfunds). From other sources. Miscellaneousincome now provides around $410 million annually. By 1970the figure is expected to be around $585 million. These estimates, made by the independent Council for Financial Aid to Education*, are based on the "best available" estimates of the expected growth in enrollment inAmerica's colleges and universities: from slightly less than 4 million this year to about 6.4 million in the "To whoseresearch staff the editors are indebted for most of the financial projections cited in this section of their report. CFAE statisticians, using and comparingthree methods of projection, built their estimates on available hard figures and carefully reasoned assumptions about the future. academic year 1969-70. The total income that the colleges and universitieswill require in 1970to handlethis enrollment will be on the order of $9 billion—compared with the $5.6 billion that they received and spent in 1959-60. WHO PAYS? every source of funds, of course—however it is labeled—boils down to you. Some of the money, you pay directly: tuition,fees, gifts to the colleges and universities that you support. Other funds pass, in a sense, through channels—your church, the several levels of government to which youpay taxes, the business corporations with which you deal or in which you own stock. But, in the last analysis, individual persons arethe source of them all. Hence, if you wished to reduce your support of higher education, you could do so. Conversely (as is presumably the case with most enlightened parents and with most college alumni and alumnae), if you wished to increase it, you could do that, also—with your vote and your checkbook. As is clearly evident in the figures above, it is essential that you substantially increase both your direct and your indirect support of higher education between now and 1970, iftomorrow's colleges and nniversitiesare to give your children the education that you wouldwish for them. virtually THE MONEY YOU'LL NEED long-range planning and long-range voluntary saving, for most families the most difficult part of financing their children's educationis paying the direct costs: tuition, fees, room, board, travel expenses. These costs vary widely from institution to institution. At government-subsidized colleges and universities, for since it requires �example, tuition fees for state residents may be nonexistent or quite low. At community colleges, located within commuting distance of their students' homes, room and board expenses may consist only of what parents are already paying for housing and food. At independent (non-governmental) colleges and universities, the costs may be considerably higher. In 1960-61. here is what the average male student of higher education, including junior colleges, in each of the two categories spent at the average institution (public and private): Public Tuition Board ... Room Total Institutions $179 383 187 $749 Private Institutions $ 676 404 216 $1,296 These, of course, are "hard-core" costs only, representing only part of the expense. The average annual bill for an unmarried student isaround $1,550. This conservative figure, provided by the Survey Research Center at the University of Michigan for the U.S. Office of Education, does not include such items as clothing. And, as we have attempted to stress by italicizing the word "average" wherever it appears, the bill can be considerably higher, as well as somewhat lower. At a private college for women (which is likely to get relatively little money from other sources and must therefore depend heavily upon tuition income) the hard-core costs alone may now run as high as $2,600 per year. Every parent must remember that costs will inevitably rise, not fall, in the years ahead. In 1970, according to one estimate, the cost of four years at the average state university will be $5,800; at the average private college, $11,684. HOW TO AFFORD IT? sums represent a healthy part of most families* such resources. Hard-core costs alone equal, at public institutions, about 13 per cent of the average American family's annual income; at private institutions,about 23 per cent of average annual income. How do families afford it? How can you afford it? Here is how the typical family pays the current average bill of $1,550 per year: Parents contribute Scholarships defray student earns Other sources yield The $950 130 360 110 Nearly half of all parents begin saving money for their children's college education well before their children are ready to enroll. Fourteen per cent report that they borrow money to help meet college costs. Some 27 per cent taJce on extra work, to earn more money. One infive mothers does additional work in order to help out. Financing the education of one's children is obviously, for many families, a scramble—a piecing-together of many sources offunds. Is such scrambling necessary? The question can be "answered only on a family-by-family basis. But these generalizations do seem valid: ► Many parents think they are putting aside enough money to pay most of the costs of sending their children to college. But most parents seriously underestimate what these costs will be. The only solution: Keep posted, by checking college costs periodically. What was true of college costs yesterday (and even of the figures in this report, as nearly current as they are) is not necessarily true of college costs today. It will be even less true of college costs tomorrow. ► If they knew what college costs really were, and what they are likely to be in the years when their children are likely to enroll, many parents could save enough money. They would start saving earlier and more persistently. They would gear their family budgets to the need. They would revise their savings programs from time to time, as they obtained new information about cost changes. ► Many parents count on scholarships to pay their children's way. For upper-middle-income families, this reliance can be disastrous. By far the greatest number of scholarships are now awarded on the basis of financial need, largely determined by level of family income. (Colleges and other scholarship sources are seriously concerned about the fact, indicated by several studies, that at least 100,000 of the country's high-school graduates each year are unable to attend college, primarily for financial reasons.) Upper-middle-income families are among those most seriously affected by the sudden realization that they have failed to save enough for their children's education. Loan programs make sense. Since going to college sometimes costs as much as buying a house (which most families finance through long-term borrowing), long-term ► �Using the current and the 1970 figures that were cited earlier, tuition will probably have to carry, on the average, about 2 per cent more of the share of total educational costs than it now carries. Governmental support, although increasing by about a billion dollars, will actually carry about 7 per cent less of the total cost than it now does. Endowment income's share will remain about the sameas at present. Revenues inthe category of "other sources" can be expected to decline by about .8 per cent, in terms of their share of the total load. Private gifts and grants—from alumni,non-alumni individuals,businesses and unions, philanthropic foundations, and religious denominations—must carry about 6 per cent more of the total cost in 1970, if higher education is not to founder. Alumnae and alumni, to whom colleges and universities must lookfor an estimated 25 per cent ($505 million) of such gifts: please note. repayment of college costs, by students or their parents, strikes many people as highly logical. Loans can be obtained from government and from private bankers. Just last spring, the most ambitious private loan program yet developed was put into operation: United Student Aid Funds, Inc., is the backer, with headquarters at 420 Lexington Avenue, New York 17, N.Y. It israising sufficient capital to underwrite areserve fund to endorse $500 million worth of long-term, lowinterest bank loans to students. Affiliated state committees, established by citizen groups, will act as the direct contact agencies for students. In the 1957-58 academic year, loans for educational purposes totaled only $115 million. Last year theytotaled an estimated $430 million. By comparison, scholarships from all sources last year amounted to only $160 million. IS THE COST TOO HIGH? as they seem, tuition rates are bargains, in this sense: They do not begin to pay the cost of providing a college education. On the national average, colleges and universities must high receive between three and four additional dollars for every one dollar that they collect from students, in order to provide their services. At public institutions, the ratio of non-tuition money to tuition money is greater than the average: the states typically spend more than $700 for every student enrolled. Even the gross cost of higher education is low, when put in perspective. In terms ofAmerica's total production of goods and services, the proportion of the gross national product spent for higher education is only 1.3 per cent, according to government statistics. To put salariesand physical plant on a soundfooting, colleges must spend more money, in relation to the gross national product, than they have been spending in the past. Before they can spend it, they must get it. From what sources? CAN COLLEGES BE MORE EFFICIENT? not infrequently, other business men—sometimes tear their hair over the industrial cost accountants —and, "inefficiencies" they see in higher education. Physical facilities—classrooms, for example—are in use for only part of the 24-hour day, and sometimes they stand idle for three months in summertime. Teachers "work" i.e., actually stand in the front of their classes—for only — a fraction ofindustry's 40-hour week. (The hours devoted to preparation and research, without which a teacher would soon become a purveyor of dangerously outdated misinformation, don't show on formal teaching schedules and arethus sometimes overlooked by persons making a judgment in terms of business efficiency.) Some courses are given for only a handful of students. (What a waste of space and personnel, some cost analysts say.) A few of these "inefficiencies" are capable of being curbed, at least partially. The use of physical facilities is being increased at some institutions through the provision of night lectures and lab courses. Summer schools and year-round schedules are raising the rate of plant utilization. But not all schools are so situated that they can avail themselves ofeven these economies. The president of the Rochester (N.Y.) Chamber of Commerce observed not long ago: "The heart of the matter is simply this: To a great extent, the very thing which is often referred to as the 'inefficient' or 'unbusinesslike' phase of a liberal arts college's operation is really but an accurate reflection of [American business and its true essential nature industry] have to understand that much of liberal education which is urgently worth saving cannot be justified on a dollars-and-cents basis." In short, although educators have as much of an obligation as anyone else to use money wisely, you just can't run a college like a railroad. Your children would be cheated, if anybody tried. .. �In sum: "«r ~r ttjen your children go to college, what will be like? Their college will, in short, be \/\/ college ready for them. Its teaching staff will be compe- ' tent and complete. Its courses will be good and, as you would wish them to be, demanding of the best talents that your children possess. Its physical facilities will surpass those you knew in your college years. The opportunities it will offer your children will be limitless. If. That is the important word. Between now and 1970 (a date that the editors arbitrarily selected for most of their projections, although the date for your children may come sooner or it may come later), much must be done to build the strength of America's colleges and universities. For, between now and 1970, they will be carrying an increasingly heavy load in behalfof the nation. They will need more money—considerably more than is now available to them—and they will need to obtain much of it from you. They will need, as always, the understanding by thoughtful portions of the citizenry (particularly their own alumni and alumnae) of the subtleties, the sensitiveness, the fine balances of freedom and responsibility withoutwhich the mechanism ofhigher education cannot function. They will need, if they are to be of highest service to your children, the best aid which you are capable of giving as a parent: the preparation of your children to value things of the mind, to know the joy of meeting and overcoming obstacles, and to develop their own personal independence. Your children are members of the most promising American generation. (Every new generation, properly, is so regarded.) To help them realize their promise is a job to which the colleges and universities are dedicated. It is their supreme function. It is the job to which you, as parent, are also dedicated. It is your supreme function. With your efforts and the efforts of the college of tomorrow, your children's future can be brilliant. If.

Council approves merger with state By unanimous vote, the University Council approved an agreement preliminary to merging with the State University. Chairman Seymour H. Knox termed the action, "the most important single step" towards the affiliation, to be effective September 1,1962. The historic session was held March 10, in the president's dining room, high in the Marine Trust building. There were 23 Council members on hand to consider the four-page resolution which calls for the transfer of all the University property and assets, including most of its endowment to the State University. These monies would be only used for the support of the institution succeeding to The University of Buffalo. Prior to themerger the agreement provides for the establishment of a separate non-stock educational corporation which will beknown as "The University of Buffalo Foundation Inc." The University will transfer to it from its endowment funds $3,089,000 and the balances in the Medical, Dental, Pharmacy and Legal Participating Stabilization Funds but not in excess of $201,050. These funds would be held and used in the same manneras they have been previously under the constitutions and by-laws of the Participating Funds. Of the endowment funds transferred one-half or $1,544,500 would be available both as to principal and incomefor the purposes of the Foundation. The other half would be held separately, the income would be paid over to the Foundation for a period of five years and at the end of five years the principal amount would be transferred to the State University. The Foundation would be governed by a board of nine trustees who would be elected by the Trustees of State University. (Official spokesman feel these members will probably be from Buffalo.) NewYork State will make provision for the mortgage indebtedness of the University to the U. S. Housing and Home Finance Agency for the dormitoriesand the student union; probably thesewill be assumed by the New York St'-e Dormitory Authority. One of the merger's conditions is that the legislature enact bills needed to carry out the provisions of the merger agreement and that the State Legislature pay the University whatever funds are available by the Legislature prior to the merger. (At press time, the Governor disclosed that a $2.85 million item for capital construction had been included in his 1962-63 budget. This figure includes the $2 million not previously earmarked in the budget and $850,000 in the current year's deficiency bill.) Other general provisions had to do with the benefits of present employees of the University. Pharmacy celebrates 75th anniversary The School of Pharmacy will formally celebrate its Diamond Anniversary during the week of April 29, with a two-night Open House at the School on campus, and a special 75th Anniversary Banquet at the Hotel Lafayette. Open House will be held on Tuesday and Wednesday evenings, May 1 and 2 in the two year old Pharmacy wing in the Health Sciences Center. Between the hours of 7 and 11 both nights, the students will be hosts to the general public and all University of Buffalo alumni. Scores of exhibitsand demonstrations in the School's many laboratories and classrooms will offer a dramatic portrayal of modern pharmaceutical education in all its aspects. The School's spectacular $35,000 "Model Pharmacy", a state-licensed facility, will also be open for inspection. Special emphasis will be placed on the historical development of Pharmacy over the past threequarters of a century. Of particular interest to Pharmacy Alumni will be the gallery of old photographs, showing former graduating classes and activities, dating many decades back. Thursday evening, May 3, will be the highlight of the Diamond Jubilee for Pharmacy Alumni. Capping the Spring Clinic activities, being held earlier that day, will be the 75th Anniversary Banquet, which is expected to be the most gala event in the history of the School of Pharmacy. Invitations have been issued to every person ever connected with the School, which should provide for many a nostalgic encounter. Highlighting the banquet will be addresses by two very distinguished guests-—Mayor Chester Kowal and Representative Thaddeus J. Dulski. The banquet will offer a rare opportunity for alumni to renew old friendships and acquaintances, since it is the type of occasion which can only be celebrated once in a generation. Since accommodations will be limited, all Pharmacy Alumni are urged to write or telephone the School of Pharmacy at once for reservations.

Hois-.adter by undergrad- often that papers written IT into learnedprofesuate students find their sional periodicals; yet this is what befell a research is not way paper prepared by Richard Hofstadter as a U.B. senior in 1937. Its publication in theAmerican Historical Review was the first of a long series of professional honors and distinctions that have fallen to the lot of thisalumnus, now DeWitt Clinton Professor of History at Columbia University. In 1944, his study of Social Darwinism inAmerican Thought, 1860-1915 was honored by publication under the sponsorship of the Beveridge Memorial Fund of theAmerican Historical Association. "Mr. Hofstadter," wrote Howard Mumford Jones in a review of this volume, "is compact, lucid, informed, vigorous," and his book, in the words of the same critic, was "in many ways a model of its kind." Then came theaward of an Alfred A. Knopf Fellowship in History, which assisted the young author in the writing and publication in 1948of a volume of essays entitled The American Political Tradition and the MenWho MadeIt. Seven years lateranother volume, The Age of Reform: From Bryan to F. D. R., was awarded a Pulitzer Prize in History. Other studies dealt with the history of academic freedom and of higher education inthe UnitedStates,and theauthor then set out to analyze the recent trend towardantiintellectualismin our civilization, a subject on which he delivered one of the Fenton Lectures at U.B. in 1957. Also in 1957, in collaboration with two other scholars, he published The United States, a popular textbook for colleges. Graduating summa cum laudein 1937, youngHofstadter had been steered by his family toward a career in the law. He gave legal studies a trial but found that they did not enlist his enthusiasm and was soon back at work inhisfavorite field of history, 30 this time at Columbia University. After receiving his Ph. D. degree there, magna cum laude, he taught for a number of years at the University of Maryland at a time when academic studies in that institution did not enjoy the full sympathy of the president, a former football coach. He was glad to return to New York and Columbia, where eventually he became a full professorship in American history. Inaddition to his regular program at Columbia he has lectured at Princeton and the University of Chicago, and has taught abroad at the Salzburg Seminar in American Studies and been lecturer or consultant at the Universities of London, Cambridge, and Oxford. His nationwide and international reputation he owes in part to his eminence as lecturer and teacher, in part to the brillianceand originality of hispublications. His Social Darwinism inAmerican Thought, an outgrowth of his doctoral dissertation, analyzed for the first time the inception, rise, and decline of the application of the Darwinian theory of evolution through the survival of thefittest to human society in the United States. It is almost if not quite unique among doctoral dissertations in having become a popular paper-back. The American Political Tradition and the Men Who Made It is a collection of twelve essayl!, beginning with the "Founding Fathers" and running through Jefferson, Jackson, Calhoun,Lincoln, and others, to the two Roosevelts Wilson,and Hoover. The essays, some of which have become minor classics, are penetrating and critical studies of outstanding American leaders and their contributions to our political philosophy. The most controversial of Professor Hofstadter's books is The Age ofReform. Here his interpretation differs sharply from the traditional. Where, for example, earlier scholars had built their interpretations of the Progressive Movement around the ideas of key individuals, Hofstadter was concerned chiefly with social classes. In particular, hefound the motivation for the reform movement of the 1890's and early 1900'sin the "status revolution"—in the dissatisfaction of white-collar professional and small business groups with theirrelative decline in status, as the influence and respect that they had formerly enjoyed passed to such figures as the spokesmen for the great corporations. This new interpretation has not won universal acceptance, and the same may be said of certain minor aspects of it, such as the attribution to the Progressive Movement of the originating or promoting of such ugly phenomena as antiSemitism and otherformsof intolerance.But whether or not one goes all the way with Richard Hofstadter in his interpretations of American history, one must concede that he is one of the most challenging and provocative of contemporary historians.— Julius Pratt �KISS ME KATE A smashing student musical production that sold out completely before opening night The Spectrum referred to Elaine Kussack as "the most glamorous package of talent Baird has yet seen." Her subtle way with the word or firecracker assault of "I Hate Men" made her the musical's biggest star. In the second act, Joe Freeman and John stole the show with the delightful, "Brush Up Your Shakespeare," which is Boylan done to an amiable soft shoe dance routine. Philip Wychodzki and Dorothy Laßrum as the show's second leads made a wonderful team, singing "Why Can't You Behave?" and "Always True to You in My Fashion". Paul Hangauer's well-spaced dancing chorus deserved honors for the small miracle of economical footwork they presented on the tiny stage of Baird Auditorium. The show was produced by Richard Marshall who also conducted the orchestra; Irwin T. Atkins was the director; Boris Baranovic was the set, costume and lightingdesigner.

The convocation was arranged in conjunction with reopening of the Albright-Knox Art Gallery, and dedication of its $2 million addition. The ceremony was held in Lockwood MemorialLibrary, in a setting of rarely exhibitedpaintings from private collections. Thefirst convocation occurredin 1946on the University's 100thanniversary. Mr. Knox, president of theFine Arts Academy, is the major benefactor of the gallery, having donated to it the 165works of contemporary art in the past seven years, gifts that have helped it gain recognition as one of the outstanding repositories of modernart in the world. Dr. Furnas conferred the same degree on seven other leaders inthe world of art: Sir Herbert Read of London, art critic and poet; Willem J. H. Sandberg, director of theStedelijk Museum, Amsterdam; Kenzo Tange, leading architect of Tokyo; James Johnson Sweeney, director of the Fine Arts Department, Carnegie Institute, Pittsburgh, and a former director of the Albright-Knox Art Gallery, Gordon Bunshaft, the architect who designed the AlbrightKnox addition, a Buffalo nativeand Lafayette High School graduate; and Alfred E. Barr, director of collections, Museum of ModernArt, NewYork City. Harriman receives Chancellor's Medal The University's highest award—the Chancellor's Medal was presented at the Midyear Commencement, February 22, to Lewis G. Harriman, chairman of the board of the Manufacturers & Traders Trust Co., and a member of the Council since 1944. Citing Mr. Harriman as a "human being of enormous zest and great heart", Dr. Furnas praised him "for achievements truly great and enobling, which dignify the performer and Buffalo in the eyes of the world". When he assumed the presidency of the Fidelity Trust Company of Buffalo, January 7, 1924, Mr. Harriman, at 34, was the youngest bank president in the country. In 1925,he presided over the mergerof Fidelity with Manufacturers and Traders Trust Co. He became chairman of the board in 1954. Mr. Harriman hasalso played an important role in community activities. He was one of the founders of the Buffalo Better Business Bureau, served as a director of 13 major companies, and as a director of the American Red Cross, the Buffalo Society of Natural Sciences, MillardFillmore Planning Association. His service to the University has been distinguished. He was elected to the Council in 1944. In 32 1955 he succeeded to the vice-chairmanship, and has served onfive committees. Alumnus Commemorated Dr. Walter S. Barnes, deceased alumnus of lie Medical School is ommemorated by a laque in Sherman Hall, which was unveiledreently. Throughout his ifetime and in his will, Dr. Barnes donated $211,009.83 to the university. He died August 2, 1958 after more than 65 years of affiliation with Mercy Hospital in Chicago. He also was on the staff of the medical school at Northwestern for many years, rising to therank offull professor and heading various departments throughout his career. Dr. Barnes was born in England and migrated to the U. S. with his parents in 1877. He graduated from the Medical School in 1892. When he died he was the oldest doctor on the Mercy Hospital staff at 89. New Engineering division The new division of Interdisciplinary Studies and Research, described as the third major step taken at the University in the last few years to increase the stature of the School of Engineering, by Dean E. Arthur Trabant, is scheduled to begin classes in September. The other two steps notedwere the establishment of a Department of Civil Engineering under Dr. Robert Ketter and a Department of Chemical Engineering under Dr. Joseph Bergantz. In the newest division, fields of study include: Nuclear Engineering—Students will have theWestern New York Nuclear Research Center close at hand.Its scientific director, Dr.Ralph F. Lumb, is a member of the Engineering School faculty and is expected to begin teaching graduate courses next the study of reactions of the year. Biophysics human body under stress. The division will coordinate its study with the Medical School's Department of Biophysics and thework of the Biology Department in the College of Arts and Sciences. Another field which might fall under the new division is space engineering, including fluid mechanics. Dr. Irving H. Shames, formerly chairman of engineering studies at Pratt Institute in NYC,will head the new division. He received his BS in mechanical engineering in 1948 from Northeastern University, his MS inmechanical engineering in 1949from Harvard University and his PhD in applied mechanics in 1953from the University of Maryland. — �Continuedfrom page 10 of new products such as gas turbines, DDT and such new materials as synthetic rubber, aviation gasoline and plastics. Thus, the contractor receives, in addition to costs and fees for performing the R&D,all thefinancial advantages of the commercial applications of government-sponsored inventions. These are undeniable advantages, and,in many cases, they are apparently more important to companies than patent rights. Nevertheless, it is not correct to assume that the commercial adaptation of government-sponsored research involves nofurther development costs or risks. In many instances, it does not. But in other cases, firms may be unwilling to bear the additionalcosts and risks without exclusive licenses to government-owned patents. A FLEXIBLE APPROACH Evidently a flexible approach in the handling of government owned patents is called for. The proper approach is suggested by the experience of the Research Corporation, a company thatmarkets patents for universities, and apparently with great success.This company sells its patent rights mainly on a nonexclusive basis. However,when development costs appear to be very large, exclusive rights have been granted for a limited period not in excess of five years. Here, then, is a model that might be used in setting up an appropriately flexible system of managing government-owned patents. A nation that has shown so much ingenuity in adapting to technical change should certainly beable to adjust to social and economic change as well. Our patent system today serves a very different society from the one that existed at the time of its inception. Any of the proposals advanced above would provide a sound basis for reform. — Classnotes CODES FOR DEGREES AC Analytical Chemistry (no longer given) BA—Bachelor of Arts, BFA Bachelor of Fine Arts Edß Bachelor of Education, LLB Bachelor of Laws, BLS Bachelor of Library Science.

In honor of the Law School's 75th Anniversary, we pay special tribute to those in the legal profession in Western New York who have worked unstintingly through the years to build a school with a fine reputation. We honor the founders who struggled to get the School on its feet financially. And most of all-, we praise those attorneys 'who have always been willing to give their time and services as instructors. It is loyalty by so many that can only mean a continued each year. high quality of. lawyers being graduated from the School in . 3 �law school history THE ESTABLISHMENT OF a law school in connection with the University of Buffalo had been considered for years,and somewhat casually discussed. As early as 1885, James Fraser Gluck, a well-known attorney and man of affairs in Buffalo, who had addressed the medical graduates in the morning, spoke at the evening banquet in response to a toast to the legal profession. He dealt with the subject of a law school in Buffalo so convincingly that on the following day a long communication, inspired by the speech, appeared in all the newspapers; he held informal interviews with many of the leaders of the Buffalo bar (Adelbert Moot, James 0. Putnam, Judge Charles Beckwith, Judge James M. Smith, and others.) A short time later the suggestion took definite shape. Gluck, of course, must not be given the entire credit; it was in the cards that the third of the University's professional divisions would be a school of law; but it seems obvious that, coming at the moment that it did; was largely a result of Gluck's tireless and enthusiastic efforts. 4 The other early enthusiast was Charles P. Norton who served on the lawfaculty for 21 years and later became Chancellor of the University. In a history of thelaw schoolwhich he published inThe Green Bag, October 1889,Norton told how the organizers of the school believed that law instruction could best be given by lawyers engaged in the active practice of the profession. "The alliance between the courts and the Bar on one hand and the School on the other, was the closer because the School instructors were from the four hundred members of the Judiciary and Bar of Buffalo. The Law School was, infact, the enterprise of the Buffalo Bar, in the interest of the more thorough and effective training of its own future members. Five judges who were holding courts almost daily became members of its faculty. Attorneys who had won reputations as specialists in various branches gladly gave their time and their services to it. The members of the Bar who were not actively engaged in theLaw School offered places intheir offices and �Dean Jacob D. Hyman contributed the Law School's goals and objectives. The history is excerpted from an unpublished law manuscript of Julian Park who is the University historian. the benefit of an older lawyer's supervision of study to every student who would come. In this respect the Law School occupied a rather unusual position among the schools of the country as the instruction thus secured was, of course, eminently practical." The Buffalo Law School had been founded on an independent basis in 1887, but it was affiliated for a time with Niagara University, instruction being held in the old shabby building of that institution on Ellicott Street near Clinton. Affiliation of a school with a distant university is not rare; but students as well as teachers needed access to large libraries, the most accessible of which (before the School built up an adequate collection) was the County Library in the County Hall, where the librarian for some years was a member of the School faculty. So the schoolwished to change its connection, and at a meeting of the faculty held on May 18, 1891, those present petitioned the Council of the University of Buffalo to admit the law school as a division of the University. The first dean was Charles Daniels, justice of the Supreme Court from 1863 to 1891, a member of Congress from 1892 to 1896, and appropriately he was named professor of constitutional law. Leßoy Parker, professor of the law of contracts and municipal law was named vice-dean. It will be gathered that the Buffalo Law School from its beginning was a practical school. In its earliest days it had no money on hand, no building, library, or guaranty fund to meet its debts (which had to be assumed by members of the faculty). The School retained its unpaid faculty until the appointment of Carlos C. Alden as full-time dean in 1904, who then served for 32 years. The nucleus of a building fund was secured by subscription among alumni and the attorneys of the City in 1917, and a location was purchased on Eagle Street directly opposite City Hall. This was the building which housed the law firm of Hoyt and Spratt. At last the Law School had permanent quarters. When this building was torn down, classes were held in Toy nsend Hall. Alumni and friends again rallied to the ;ause, donating the funds necessary to construct the present Law School which was opened in 1952. Part of the building has been leased to the Erie County Bar Association, bringing local lawyers into even closer contact with students. At the present time, there is some talk of moving the Law School to the campus, however no definite plans in terms of when thiswould be done have been formulated. The building is geared to accommodate 300 students, and present enrollmentis slightly over 200, so there is still room to expand. There are ten full-time faculty members including the dean and twelve part-time instructors. This coming Fall the School of Law celebrates its seventy-fifth anniversary of legal education inWestern NewYork. With the existing plans for new programs and new facilities, an even more significant standard of service to the legal community and professional advancement is expected before the School passes the century mark. goals and objectives THE UNIVERSITY OF Buffalo School of Law, as a university law school soon to be part of the State University of New York, and with a historical relationship to the benchand barof Western NewYork, has clearly defined responsibilities. Foremost is the responsibility to give the soundest possible legal training to those who will constitute, as their predecessors have, the largest proportion of the lawyers and judges in Western New York. Second is the closely related responsibility of assuring those prospective lawyers and judges a breadth of training which will enablethem to discharge effectively their obligation to the community to maintain high standards in the administration of justice and, as public servants, to assist in the wise formulation and sound expression of public policy. Third is the responsibility of the School through its scholarly activities to advance the understanding of the law in American society and the fitness of our legal institutions to achieve society's goals. These responsibilities shape the threefold objectives of the Law School. To provide an educational experience which, in addition to providing a broad grasp of the substantive contentand the procedures of American Law, will foster those professional qualities which are found inthe best kind of legal practitioner. The. I 5 �Associate professors, Louis A. Del Corto, LLB'SI and Daniel H. Distler are two new full-time faculty members who were added to the Law School staff during the past year. Full professor, Joseph Laufer, on the staff since 1957, teaches Torts, and with his wife, gives much time to student activities and helping the students with problems. necessary qualities of workmanship, to be effective in the service of a client's cause, must be based upon a firm sense of ethical responsibility in dealing with the client, other lawyers, and the courts, as well as a sensitivity to those larger social considerationswhich affect the best interests of the client in the long run. To train lawyers not only to solve client problems but also to contribute toward the solution of the larger problems of society itself. The education of a lawyer to meet this responsibility whether as legislator, administrator, judge, or scholar, or as a member of his profession must be founded on a clear understanding of the nature of law, its role in society and the functioning of its various organs. As part of a university, the University of Buffalo Law School embraces the pursuit of truth about law as a social institution. This involves not merely inquiry into the ends of our society and how the institutions of the law might serve them, but also how well in fact existing legal institutions do serve them. In meeting this scholarly responsibility theLaw School will seek the knowledge of, and encourage collaboration with other disciplines in the University, particularly the social sciences. The School recognizes that important aspects of the lawyer's art and craft cannot be adequately inculcated by the traditional case method of instruction alone.Problem courses have been introduced in smaller classes for the purpose of training the student not only to integrate the material of different subjects in common situations which confront lawyers but also to exercise care in the preparation of legal documents. Clinicprograms which involve students in various facets of the legal work done in the community have been tentatively started and will be further tested. Seminars are required not only in order to provide further practice in written legal analysis, but also to confront every student with a problem which necessitates consideration of the larger social forces impinging on the law. The School is committed to continuing exploration of these and other techniques. In addition it will develop centers of research activity in selected areas of the law and encourage interdisciplinary studies. It must become, even in its training for careers in the law, a graduate school in the fullest sense of the term. n — m 6 — �an attorney is... A STUDENT OF LAW, Waldon S. Hayes, Jr., says a good attorney must be a man of decision, devotion and drive. These three characteristics will be discussed inthe following pages by Terry who has compiledan outstanding record in the last three years in the Law School. Returning to Buffalo from Hamilton College where he majored in History and Spanish, (his parents live at 226 Bedford Avenue) he graduated second in the recent graduating class. He was associate editor of the Law Review, which is published by top students in the law classes on important recent decisions handed downby the Appellate Courts. He was also a member of The Indigent Prisoner Organization and The Lincoln Law Club. Although a scholar usually doesn't have many spare hours, Terry seems to find time to devote to outside activities. About ten years ago, he became interested in magic tricks and has quite a collection. He performs at various social and charity functions, besides entertaining his ten-year old sister Wendy. His other hobby is cooking, and one of bis favorite weekend pleasures is inviting a group of friends over for an exotic dish like sukiyaki. Although he jokes with his fiancee, a recent music graduate of Vassar College, Ann E. Hayes, (yes that's really the same last name and they're not related) about teaching her to cook, there is much truth to it because he has become pretty skilled in the culinary art. Sunday mornings Terry spends teaching senior high students at the Lafayette Avenue Presbyterian Church where he is a deacon. He assures his readers here, though, that this experience does not mean that his following comments should be read as a sermon but rather asreflections about the profession he has chosen. 7 �a man of decision, IT HAS BEEN said that the law is the perfection of reason; if this is so, a man's ability to develop his reasoning power determines the kind of lawyer he will be. A practicing attorney must learn to rely on his own judgment. Therefore, one of the most important things students have to learn is how to develop reason. I honestly believe when I set my sights on law school I had little idea of the law as the law and know that I had no conception of the difference between the plaintiff and defendant or the meaning of a tort or a chattel mortgage. However, my blissful ignorance was soon overcome by continuous and strenuous hours of study. The law becomes a challenging mental exercise, totally different from undergraduate memorizationand multiple choice. 8 You might say that the major difference is that the student is forced to think. Even though the legal philosophy and theories are learned by rote, the practical application has to be logically arrived at in order to be applied to a set of facts in a case. The graduating law student, having tasted manyaspects of the law for three years, has to call upon his best reasoning power to decide the path which best suits his personality, skills and desires. This choice, which is the most important in his youthful legal career, is left entirely in his hands. Whether he selects the government, a large firm, his own firm or business, the challenges are inevitable, but happiness, regrettably, is not always secured. In addition, with the ever-increasing volume of the law, it seems that specialization in a particular area might be necessary. These are problems with which I am now faced, and must soon decide. My greatest ambition upon entering the legal profession is to make some significant contribution to the lawand in doing so, to serve the lawand the community. The law offers great opportunities for an individual to leave his permanent indentation, and the large question mark in my future is how significant my markwill be. devotion, WHEN HE FIRST begins his legal education, a student of the law constantly mutters to himself about the vast number of intricacies, rules and exceptions to the rules; however, after a few years of study, it eventually begins to �dawn upon him that they are the result of centuries of development of an emerging system of justice a body of rules which have consistently responded to the demands and necessities of our society. For sucha lasting and yet ever changing phenomenon, there can be nothing but admiration, and from admiration stems devotion. This devotion to the law is essential in light of the attorney's responsibilities to his individual client and the public, both of whom he represents in every legal transaction. An attorney not devoted to the law tends to have as — his primary goal financial remuneration, and it is this man who casts a shadow upon the legal profession. This type of an individual, contrary to popular belief, is rare, but is the one who receives the most publicity and, consequently, among the uninformed is believed to be the rule rather than the exception. It is an attorney's moral and ethical duty to come forward with every possible legal advantage so that he may best serve the interests of his client. It is most unfortunate that this very necessary type of service is considered by some to bea manipulation of the law and the attorney con- sidered to be a conniving double talker. The inability of the general public to draw the subtle but necessary distinction between providing the type of service that a client has the right to expect and manipulating the law for an individual's pecuniary benefit results in the poor image of the attorney held by many. Fortunately, the vast majority of attorneys today are devoted to the study and practice of law and do serve their clients to the best of their ability. If this were not so, we would not have the organized society that we have today and anarchy would reign instead of justice. 9 �10 �"In Trial Practice, the student, as the public knows him, finally emerges as a practicing attorney. He learns courtroom procedure, how to pick a jury, examine witnesses, and address the court and jury." His final exam, a mock trial is formally presented in court. and drive THE LEGAL PHILOSOPHY of an individual is ingrained into him after many yearsof conscientious study and labor and has as its foundation bricks of sweat, tears and joy. A man entering law has a few preconceived ideas about the lawwhich are either dispelled or clarified. He has no idea of the weight of case law, and the elementary fact that the courts, as well as the legislature, are instrumental in developing a systematic body of law is yet to be learned. He is likely to thinkthat a broken leg as a result of a car accident is negligence; anyone accused of a crime needs only a mouthpiece to "get off"; and civil procedure, if he has ever heard of it, ought to be abolished. The law school is required to take this disheveled mind and instill a legal philosophy. After the first few months and the endless task of briefing cases, the eager freshman, however, thirsts for "the practical," and the legal philosophy and the theoretical take a comfortable back seat in his mind until.... It is really not until the senior year that the student has an adequate knowledge and insight into the law to begin the practical. In a course entitled, Trial Practice, the student, as the public knows him, finally emerges as a practicing attorney. He learns courtroom procedure, how to pick a jury, examine witnesses, and address the court and jury. For an entire semester the student prepares a case to beformally presented in a mock trial before a Judge, using the facilities of the County Courthouse, and having at his disposal the Sheriff's Department. The one single thing that impressed me the most about this course was the immense amount of work that went into preparing for the trial. I found myself possessed by the facts in the case and my responsibilities to the client. The conclusion that I came to, and leavewith you, is that it takes far more than knowledge or devotion to the law to really be a good attorney. Plainly, it takes real guts and drive to keep probing for the truth, and using every available legal means to provide the client with real justice. Perhaps that is what is meant by the challenge of the law. 11 �Every person who enters into a profession undertakes to bring to the exercise of it a reasonable degree of care and skill. He does not undertake, if he is an attorney, that at all events you shall gain your case; nor does he undertake to use the highest possible degree of skill; there may be persons who have higher education and greater advantages than he has. But he undertakes to bring a fair, reasonable and competent degree of skill. LORD CHIEF JUSTICE TINDAL 12 �case for The success of the Annual Participating Fund for Legal Education proves that local lawyers care enough about their profession to contribute to its support. In this article, Dale W. Hartford, Publicity Director giving AN EXCITING CONCEPT in giving was bom at the University some years ago, and, if we aspire to the finest, it is imperative that we not letit wither. The concept, simply stated, suggests that the professional person cares about his profession. It is an idea which has stood the test of time here, and borne fruit for public institutions (such as the University of Michigan) as well as private. Physicians (both alumni and non-alumni) now give close to $100,000 annually in support of the basic sciences in ÜB's Medical School. Dentists and pharmacists contribute generously to their respective schools. And lawyers care, too. In each of these areas which have AnnualParticipating Funds, the great need in recent years has been to keep the ship afloat. Now, if we may be very nautical, the time has come to unfurl a new sail or two. Within days the University, by virtue of its geographical location if nothing else, will be pushed into the front ranks of higher education in this country. Existing as the only tax-supported university in the richest state in the land can hardly be less than exciting. It could be revolutionary. Much depends on the State: its attitudes, aspirations and actions. And much depends on the University itself, first as an instrument of influence, secondly through its exemplariness in the conduct of its own affairs. There is every reason to believe that professional education at the university will receive support comparable to or, hopefully, in excess of thatwhich it now enjoys. For the far-sighted in our midst the opportunity presented is apparent. Rather than relaxing our support efforts, the day has arrived when every dollar given from private sources will be directed to supplemental, clearly defined programs which distinguish a superlative education from a mediocre one. The last of four children came into the University's Fund family in 1959, with the birth of the Annual Participating Fund for Legal Education. The organization was founded by alumni of the School of Law, but it was early determined that all members of the Bar in this area should have the opportunity of advancing the profession through the Fund. A list of thosewho contributed generously of both timeand money in these early, formative days reads like a "Who's Who in Law in Western New York." Distinguished judges, attorneys long out of Law School, and others fresh from the Bar exam recognized the value of continuing interest inand support of legal education. Despite the contributions of so many, one person must be recognized for the leadership and drive which he exerted, and still exerts, for A.P.F.L.E. Charles R. Diebold, President of Western Savings Bank and a Law School alumnus, was unanimously elected first chairman of the Fund on November 10, 1959. It was an auspicious choice for the A.P.F.L.E. Under his direction, an opening dinner, featuring former Dean Louis L. Jaffee as speaker, was planned. When the dinner was held on May 2,1960, a total of $10,000 in memberships was announced. Another report dinner was held that October, with E. Blythe Stason, former Dean of the University of Michigan School of Law, as speaker. Membership pledges had reached the $15,000 mark. The Fund began life with the purpose of distributing the fruits of its energies in five ways: Acquire and retain regular faculty and administration of the highest quality and of adequate size to insure the steady improvement of the standard of undergraduate legal education; Maintain and improve the quality of the students who will enter the legalprofession in the community; 13 �. fession and the communitythrough basic research on law end society and through contributions to the understanding and solution of appropriate Enhance the direct contributions of the Law School to the legal profession, particularly in the community, through such programs as continuing legal education; Assist the Law School in contributing to the solution of appropriate community problems; And improve and strengthen the relationship between the Law School, the profession and the public. Before it had reached its first birthday, the A.P.F.L.E. was responsible for the creation of a $1,000 continuing scholarship (one of three given to incoming freshmen at the time), establishment of a new course in counselling small business, and the strengthening of other existing programs. Thanks largely to the Fund, additions to the full-time teaching staff have been made each year since its founding. In its efforts to provide continuing education for members of the local law community, the Fund circulated widely a questionnaire to determine the needs to be met. The replies (over 300 were received in thefirst week) have served as the basis for longrange planning in this area. A seminar for attorneys on Income Tax Problems of General Practice, sponsored by the Fund, is typical of the activity being pursued. The Law Participating Fund, then, got off to a strong start. But a month after its report dinner in October, 1960, the report of the Governor's Commission on Higher Education (commonly called the Heald Report) was madepublic. By the first of the year, the possibility of a merger with State University was being openly discussed. The prolonged negotiations with State University and other officials which is leading to a September wedding had a predictable effect on the University's support constituencies. Actually, the effect was surprisingly mild in its adverse nature, illustrated in but one instance by the lawyer's ability to raise 14 $5,000 in the month of December, 1961, to close out the Fund's second year with donations of some $11,000. The order of the day at the University of Buffalo is change change to build, change to grow. And the A.P.F.L.E. has changed to meet a new set of circumstances. Dean Jacob Hyman early conducted a survey of the nation's leading law schools at publicly supported institutions. His report to the Fund's Executive Committee lent great impetus to the existing belief that the Fund's efforts could in the future be more creative and more meaningful than in the past. A determined effort to share this thinking with the entire membership, and with those in the profession still outside the membership, has been undertaken. A special Committee on Reorganization, chaired by Clarence R. Runals, has submitted a report which is serving as the foundation for what is, in many ways, a new organization. To broaden membership, fees have been reduced to $10 per year for persons admitted to the Bar for seven years or less, and to $25 per year for all others. Founders of the organization and persons continuing to contribute $100 each year will be known as Carlos C. Alden Associates, in memory of the late and belovedDean. Because tuition in the School will be loweredwith state support, and other financial assistance programs for students are available, the Fund has logically to some extent revised its goals. Even greater emphasis will be given to continuing education for lawyers in the community, and it is hoped to "enhance the contributions of theLaw School to the legal profession and the community through basic research on law and society and through contributions to the understanding and solution of — . appropriate community problems." Constant concern for upgrading the undergraduate program, through new and distinguished faculty appointments with salaries supplemented by A.P.F.L.E., through support of visiting professorships and in other ways, can be anticipated. New clinical programs for students have already been undertaken. The goal, clearly, is to give Buffalo one of the finest law schools in the nation. Abraham Lincoln once urged that "... reverence for the laws... become the political religion of the nation." The great need for lawyers, and the urgent need for maintaining and upgrading standards within the profession, dictate that the opportunity facing the University of Buffalo School of Law, its alumni and its many friends, be pursued with great resourcefulness. �SIDNEY B. PFEIFER, LLB'2O, VICE PRESIDENT, STATE BAR ASSOCIATION, DELIVERED THE FOLLOWING TREATISE ON INTEGRITY OF THE BAR BEFORE THE NEW YORK AREA ALUMNI CLUB AT ITS ANNUAL MEETING IN THE FALL. the lawyer's not for burning IT IS NO secret that lawyers have enjoyed wide-spread unpopularity among laymen not only contemporaneously butfor centuries. Twenty-five hundred years ago, the incomparable Greek playwright, Aristophanes, one of the greatest writers of comedy who ever lived, took occasion to pillory the law and the legal profession in an immortal comedy "The Clouds". The Athenians of that time were notedfor their litigous propensities, for their evasion of jury service and for theiraversion to the legal process in general. In "The Clouds", Aristophanes created a character who is one of the most amusing blockheads in all literature a man named Strepsiades who is sent to a school — to learn how to win lawsuits.And the lawsuitswhich he is primarily interested in winning are only those in which he is in the wrong! When, in an early scene, his instructor points to a dot on the mapand explains "thisis Athens", Strepsiades replies "It can't be. I don't see any courts in session there." You can trace this anti-legal attitude of famous writers through the Middle and the Elizabethan Ages-from Chaucer and Boccaccio through Burton, Goldsmith, Landorand Victorian Tennyson right down to our day. In 17thand 18th century England, the onslaughts multiply with increasing vigor. Samuel Butler, in Hudibras, describes a lawyer, of whom I am sure you have known a modern counterpart, With books and money placed for show, Like nest eggs-to make clients lay; And for fus fake opinion pays. W. S. Gilbert, of Gilbert and Sullivan fame in Utopia, creates a barrister who sings, And whether you are an honest man Or whether you're a thief, Depends on whose solicitor Has given me my brief. Wordsworth, than whom no gentler man or poet ever lived, in "A Poet'sEpitaph" writes, A lawyer art thou? draw not nigh! Go carry to some fitter place The keenness of that practiced The hardness of that sallow face. Here is our own Benjamin Franklin, surely one of thewisest of the founding fathers, writing in 1734 God works wonders now and then Behold—a lawyer who's an honest man. And Carl Sandburg, practically yesterday, chortles Why k there a secret singing when a lawyer cashes in? Why does the hearse horse snicker hauling a lawyer away. But perhaps the epitome of all this, is to be found in the New Testament—in the Gospel of St. — 15 �Luke (XI: 46). Luke, the physician, is quoting Christ. "Then answered one of the lawyers, and said unto Him, 'Master thus saying, Thou reproachest us also.' And He said 'Woe unto you also, ye lawyers! For ye lade men with burdens grievous to be borne and ye yourselves touch not the burdens with one of your fingers' ". And so, echoing down the corridors of time, across 2000 years, comes the cry, apparently as timely today as it was then, "Woe unto you also—ye lawyers" an admonition which has now become classic and which still rings fitfully and with a strange timeliness in our ears. If you are disposed to imagine that these are merely isolated examples of popular distrust of lawyers, let me assure you that such is not the case. There are literally dozens of similar utterances in almost every age which are just as pointed and which have their origin in fully as important sources. Or if you are inclined to console yourselves with the comforting thought that these are merely expressions of individual pique, prominent as theauthors of some of them may have been said that a proverb is the epitome of the thinking of a people or a nation. If so, listen to the Danes '"Virtue in the middle', said the devil, as he sat down between two — — — lawyers." Or the French "No lawyers will ever go to Heaven, so long as there is room for more in Hell." Or, of all people, the Russians (of another time, of course) "When God wanted to chastise mankind he invented lawyers." After such expressions as these you can scarcely blame a number of our profession if, in the agony of his despair, he cries out with Job "How long, O Lord, how long." How long is this deepseated, age-old universal distrust — — 16 of lawyers by mankind to continue? Is the brand of Cain to be eternal upon the lawyer's brow? Is calumny inseparable from our lot? Is the curse never to be expiated? Are we really therogues that literature so frequently makes us out to be? It is that lawyers, by birth or calling, are intrinsically bad people? Is the lawyer really for burning? WELL, TO ANSWER, there is another more logical and more plausible explanation of our plight and our dilemma. And it lies in the basic perversity of human nature —in man's own greed and cupidity. It just cannot be that lawyers as such have always been fundamentally and uniformly bad men that they have remained unalterable base through the ages. No, there must be another answer and it lies in the fact that throughout the same ages there is something in human nature which has remained unchanged. If we recognize this, if we look at it and ourselves with understanding in the mirror of history, it must giveus sustenance and help us to meet and resolve our present-day problems which after all appear to be strikingly unchanged from the century-old problems of our profession. Considerfor a moment the position of the lawyer in a civilized society. It is the duty and the responsibility of the lawyer to deal with the rights of each man against the rights of every other man and often against the rights of all other men. Consider further that every problem, every controversy has two faces and it is the unfortunate lot of the lawyer that he must necessarily ally himself with one side or theother. He can never be a friend to both sides or to all men. Well, you will say, if he is the representative of the winning side at least those whom he represents successfully—for — �whom he attains their desired objective—should be grateful, even ifall those on the other side come to despise him. If that were true, the lawyer would stand at least a 50-50 chance of popularity. But we as lawyers all know that a successful outcome of a given controversy is rarely entirely satisfactory even to those on the victorious side. There are always questions of compromise. Nothing is ever all black or all white. Both are more apt to turnout to be a "splotchy gray". So here again the lawyer's chances of attaining popularity are further reduced by the inexorable workings of legal mills of the gods. And when you consider that the final factor in resolution of all such controversies is bound to involve payment to the lawyer, successful or unsuccessful, wholly or partly, for his labors, you can see that the chances of a lawyer's popularity with almost anyone is apt to be stretched to a vanishing point. Not long agoformer DeanLouis Jaffe of the Buffalo Law School, now at Harvard, came to Buffalo to address the Annual Participation Fund for Legal Education. He had something to say in this regard: "There is an almost instinctive distrust by the public of the legal professions. A certain amount of this is inevitable.We must accept it, reckon with it and strive to overcome it. Consider that a majority of our citizens never engage a lawyer unless it's either to win a fight or get out of a scrape. In this, as in so many other aspects, we differ from the medical profession. "When a man is ill, there is no rival doctor on the other side plotting his swift demise. But in a lawsuit, the party on the other side is always aided and abetted by the fiendish ingenuity of his lawyer. And as for your own client, he will be asking you to strain the law to the utmost to cover his own cupidity and to mitigate his own misconduct. One's lawyer can always be used as a scapegoat upon whom one can load one's uneasy conscience. We, as lawyers, know this and we can see it in proper perspective— but the laymanfrequently cannot. As a result of it all, we cannot pretend to be pious and we cannot hope to be popular. And for that reason we must always be right with ourselves. This is our ultimate— our only salvation; we must be convinced that we are doing all we can, consistent with our difficult position, to fulfill our professional responsibility." And so we come to the heart of the matter. The weighing, the delicate balancing in the scale of our consciences of the perversity of human nature on the one hand and the necessity for our own lightness with ourselves on the other. This is a problem that confronts no other profession as starkly as it does ours. But out of the attainment of a true balance between those conflicting elements there emerges our one most sustaining and comforting thought. Only with the reassurance which comes of the knowledge of our own lightness can we meet the challenge of the self interest of those on behalf of whom we labor. Only inthe confidence of our own integrity can we surmount the temptations of the market place, gainthe respect and confidence of our fellowmen and still the voices of skepticism and condemnation which have beset our legal forebears throughout history. The striking of this balance is the light in our darkness. This is the leaven in our daily bread; this the ultimate guidepost of our journeythrough the jungle of our relations with the public. This is the banner and the creed 17 �which we must ever keep before us the dictates of our own consciences against the selfishness of human nature. That is why lawyers can never pretend to be too — pious, or why they can never hope to be too popular. Once we accept this, we will be better equipped to enter the arena of our public relations. Fittingly humbled against this background we, who are working in the public relations area of our professional activities, believe that we can improve the lawyer's image in the public eye. To do so, however, we must recognize and be guided by certain cardinal principles. In the past, there has been little intelli- gent organized defense to the attacks, warranted and unwarranted, which have plagued the legal profession for centuries. And certainly therehas been largely an absence of any organized attempt at the interpretation of the lawyer's role in our society. Today, the legal profession through the organized bar attempts to meet these criticisms by pointing out their fallacies and by demonstrating that these calumnies are in very large measure undeserved. Public relations is of course an inexact science or should I say art? But there are certain cardinal — principles to serve as guideposts and which may be read even by those who run. The implements with which we gird ourselves are: (1) the interpretation to the public of the important role the legal profession and the courts play in every community that lives under law. It is axiomatic, and therefore perhaps cannot be too often repeated, that no democracy can long exist without lawyers. If, as the Russians say, "God chastised man by inventing lawyers", our retort is "Lawyers are the scourge and nemesis of tyrants." One of the greatestcompliments ever paid the legal profession is 18 Shakespeare's when in "Henry VI" he puts into the mouths of conspirators as the condition precedent to their plan of establishing a tyranny, i.e. "Let's kill all the lawyers" and incidentally no pronouncement inall literature has been more widely misunderstood in its application. (2) We are discovering and putting into action ways by which the legal profession can better serve and benefit the public. The discovery is easier than the evolving of remedial methods, but as a result of our most recent discoveries we are now putting our attempts at solutions into effective action in many important ways. And finally (3) we endeavor to improve the lawyer's own understanding of his role in the entire picture. Not only must he be right with himself but it is essential that he recognize and fulfill his manifold professional and personal responsibili- — ties to those about him. No matter how desponding our situation may appear from timeto time, there is much in the way of reassurance to be gained from these same pagesof history which we have been contemplating. From time immemorial, the highest levels in the echelons of all nations, the highest roles in national councils, have been occupied by members of the legal profession. If you have not yet been fortunate enough to witness Robert Bolt's current drama "A Man For All Seasons", there is the portrait presented of a great and God-fearing man Sir Thomas More who above everything else was a great lawyer and who remained, against all else, right with himself whose life was dedicated inflexibly to the law and to his own conscience, and who paid with his life for that dedication. It is no accident that twenty-three of the thirty-five Presidents of the United States — — — have been lawyers. And in fact the higher the civilization, the greater the needand the responsibility, the higher the caliber and the more numerous the members of our profession in positions of great national and international trust. Surely then, all is not lost with us. Surely, then, the lawyer is not for burning. AND ACCORDING TO the legal scholar Roscoe Pound, there is still another reassuring thought. Not long ago the head of a prominent university stated that "the law is a disappearing profession". With the progress of science, said the educator, the need for lawand lawyers is fast disappearing and only medicine, engineering and scientific research willremain. Our reply to this is that, except for law, there would be little chance of these pursuits to develop and maintain themselves. And the same is true, of course, for the pursuits of commerce and industry. In fact, it is the development of the general security through law which has made possible the miraculous advances of science, medicine, engineering, research and industry in our time, for the fact remains that all men desire the earth; and there is only one earth and there are myriads of men. It is the law which orders and adjusts the relations between men, promoting and maintaining that ideal relationship between them which we know as justice justice which we like to describe as liberty for every man limited only by like liberty for all. But, say these anti-legal pundits, science will supplant law. Science will enable us to supplant and overcome the struggle for existence which up to now has been regulated by law. Science will so multiply the goods of existence that everyone will have all — (Continued on Page 18) �Clubnotes Dental honorary elects seniors Business alumni dinner Lieutenant Governor of NewYork State,Malcolm Wilson was the principal speaker for the 35th annual alumni reunion dinner held April 27th at the Buffalo Launch Club. He told the group that Niagara Frontier businessmen should become more active in politics to help improve government.

Then therewill be no more job for law. Super-abundant plenty will abolish the need for law,and of course for lawyers. But what about the imminent question what about man's expectations? Will they stand still? Will they vanish? Or will they increase along with the increase in abundance? Does experience teach us multiplication of the worlds goods? Willreasonableness increase the acceptance of the concept of the spirit prevailing over the material? Has man always rendered unto God only what is God's and unto Caesar only what is Caesar's? Or will men still want the earth and the fullness thereof however full science may make it? And Dean Pound concludes succinctly, "Until the millenium makes over human nature or until Communism suppresses it or until anarchy wrecks our abundance, there is likely to be need of law and so of lawyers." Not long ago a good friend of mine, in a discussion about the public relations programs of the legal profession asked "What is it exactly that we are trying to accomplish in this work of public relations for lawyers?" This has been the subject of some rather widespread comment so it deserves a carefully reasoned reply. The answer is the interpretation of the bar, in all its aspects and on all levels, to the general public; and by such an interpretation the bringing about of a better understanding of the place and function of the legal profession in our society. Again, you may ask when you say interpretation and understanding what is it precisely that you want to interpret; what is it that you want the public to understand? To define it briefly, itwould be just this: — — — — — — 20 THE BASIC CONCEPT of our western civilization, the very heartand core of our whole way of life, is pregnant with the tenet that we liveunder law. Were it not for law, none of the things which we cherish and hold most dear would be possible: respect for dignity of the individual,regard for the integrity of the human mind, reverence for life and for the living, faith in freedom and in the development of the individual in a free society, preservation of the guarantees of life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness all of these things into which are distilled the spirit, the very essence and deepest meaning of our civilization and culture all of these are bound up inseparably with, are protected, secured and given living force and significance by law and the administration of justice. — — — In that administration, who is there to gainsay the indispensability of the lawyer who will challenge his place and function in the great plan of our existence as free men? It is not the lawyer who in the final analysis is the guardian and protector, the ultimate guarantor of the inviolability of thesefundamental concepts which we hold most sacred, to which we must continue to pay our deepest devotion and loyalties, if we are to survive? It is the understanding of these things by the public which is our objective. This is our messageand our meaning this is the interpretation of the place and function of the lawyer in our society. And it is upon our ability to bring homethis message and this meaning to the public that the success or failure of our whole public relations effort must ultimately — — depend. No—the lawyer's notfor burning—not yet at least—not for a long, long time.

It seeks to support usability for the greatest number of people, including a wide spectrum of age groups and abilities. It is response to cultural diversity and current demographic shifts. Postwar Baby Boomers, the largest segment of today's consumer population, are beginning to anticipate and experience the effects of aging. Universally designed products and environments offer greater safety and increased comfort. They are easy to operate and flexible to meet the needs of different people. We have amassed a collection of over 200 products through our gallery installations of the Unlimited by Design exhibition and a traveling exhibit called "live | work | eat | play." This is a digital archive of these installations that provide access worldwide for scholars and educators. It also ensures historical documentation of the products.
