Deba^co^ete&^n chairmen Announce

Bates placed second in the an-

nual Novice Debate Tourney held

last week at Dartmouth on Fri-

day and Saturday

Debating the affirmative of the

national subject, The Right to

Word Laws, were Mary Stafford

and Neil Newman Upholding the

negative side of the question

were Marjorie Sanborn and Rob-

ert Viles

Bates.Ties For Second

This novice cup competition is

sponsored by Dartmouth and has

been held annually for the past

six years Saint Anselms of Ver-

mont took top honors and gained

the cup which was won by Bates

in 1953

Bates tied for second place

with New York University, New

Haven, and Massachusetts Insti-

tute of Techonology The 17

teams came from as far south as

Johns Hopkins in Baltimore, Md

In addition, individual awards

were presented Marjorie San-

born was named one of the three

best negative speakers

This debate officially closed the

Bates forensic season since the

teams will not compete in the

Eastern Championship as previ-

ously announced The final varsity team appearance was before the Lewiston-Auburn Rotary;

Club last Thursday There they -

were well received

Added to this victory Bates' took top honors in the debates

at the University of Vermont, placed second at the Massachu- setts Institute of Technology, and won the New England Tourney

The team also placed fourth in

an invitation tournament in

Washington, D C

Prospects For Next Year Commenting on the total year's, work, Professor Quimby ex-' pressed his pleasure by saying that this season has been one of the best in the history of Bates

Looking over the prospects for ' next year the varsity team will

be in a strong position as their tour top debaters will all be re-' turning

The new national college topic will not be announced until late

in the summer; however, varsity' members will be informed of the subject as soon as it is known, so they will be able to do some background reading before re-1 turning to Bates in the fall

Political Change

By PETE SKELLEY

Dr Lawrence Fuchs, professor

of Political Science at Brandeis

University, spoke last Thursday

to the Citizenship Laboratory on

the "Changes Taking Place in

Today's Political Processes."

Dr Fuchs stated that the first

fact to establish was that the two

major political parties were "not

programmatic in their ideology."

He gave examples as to how men

have been saying for years, "It's

too bad they (the political par-

ties) aren't different like they

were years ago." Political parties

have possessed a certain amount

of cleavage ever since the forma-

tion of the Federalist party

Cleavages Disappear

Today there are changes taking

place and these include the de-

emphasizing factor of party

cleavage and the stress on the

part of "issues and personali-

ties."

Since the Civil War people

have been "born" into political

parties Fuchs noted that "Sec-

tional politics dominated as long

as the nation remained agricul-

tural The sectional problem, in

short, was eclipsed by the shadow

of towering cities." Since then we

Dr Lawrence Fuchs have shifted to an economic or class basis, with the two parties reflecting an economic stature in 1928-1938

Notes Other Factors

A second factor to remember, asserted Fuchs, is that foreign policies have aroused the fears of American classes For example,

in 1944 the gap between the up- per and lower classes was closed

The battle between urban and rural interests have also crossed party lines "It is my contention (Continued on page three)

Speaker Debates Nuclear Testing

By MIKE POWERS Speaking in chapel last Friday morning, Dr Lawrence Fuchs, assistant professor of political science at Brandeis University, outlined the issues pertaining to the important question of discontinuation of nuclear tests

Stating his own ' position Dr

Fuchs maintained that "the major obstacle is not detection or peaceful application, but we should stop thinking strictly in defense terms and seize the initiative."

In presenting a talk on the H bomb tests Prof Fuchs believed that two facts must be kept in mind for any discussion The first

is that at the London disarmament conference held last year Russia agreed to a system of in- spection in order to enforce a ban

on such tests, so they are not es- sentially opposed The second is that the present administration would rather not negotiate for nuclear disarmament under the auspices of the United Nations

Cites Arguments Those generally in favor of discontinuation of the tests often cite reasons such as danger from nuclear fall-out, the moral in-

ton and Helene Marcoux, plus 20 other swimmers, Barbara Smith, Janice Hunter Dorothy Sibley, Judy Roberts, Dianne Curtis, Tabitha Wall, Margaret Rogers, Donna Barnard, Sue Lovett, Di- ane Sutcliffe, Faith Vollans

Elizabeth Willard Marcia Put- nam Sue Kimball Judy Rogers, Catherine Harwood, Linda West- cott Kay Smith, Gail Emerson, and Rindy Northrop demonstrat-

ed to their audience how the mood of a tune could be ex- pressed by colored lights, cos- tume's, and a variety of swimming motions

Reads Narrations Short narrations between each number were read by Judy Granz These added to the total effectiveness of each mood The costumes, streamers, collars, bracelets, and bows were made

by Faith Vollans and Tabitha Wall, and lights were controlled

by discontinuing the tests the United States would stop the spread of nuclear weapons to those countries which at present

do not possess such armaments

Undoubtedly the two most important factors calling for a (Continued on page two)

Fuchs Favors Cessation

Of U.S H-Bomb Testing

(Continued from page one) speedy discontinuation are the facts that "world opinion demands we should stop, for at the present time the peoples of the world feel that Russia is doing more for world peace than the United States." Thus by ceasing tests this country could make a major breakthrough in the present stalemate Once the break had been accomplished then we could pursue disarment further

Discusses Other Side

On the other side of the coin, those who oppose discontinuing the tests argue that this country

is interested in preparing so- called "clean" bombs These clean bombs would cause much less nuclear fall-out However such explosives as well as the knowledge for applying nuclear fission to peace time purposes can be accomplished only through continued tests

Those opposing the stoppage

of the tests also state that our al- lies are fundamentally against the United States' discontinua-

tion But public opinion in

France and Great Britain proves otherwise Such opposition is valid only if we accepted certain premises, stated Fuchs

These are that it would entail recognition of Red China, and that the "clean" bombs would be

a greater deterrent, for Russia may believe we would not retali- ate with a "dirty" bomb Prob- ably the greatest premise needed

to establish the validity of these oppositions is that the Soviet Union presents us with only a military offensive

Influence Current Policy Two other reasons recognized

by our State and Defense depart- ments but generally unknown to the American public weigh heav- ily upon our current policy of continuing the tests A discontinuation of tests would lead to a propaganda drive on the part of Russia for a discontinuation of the use of such weapons as well

as testing Also, any agreement which would not include Red (Continued on page seven)

College Catechism Shows

Bates' Ideological State

To the Editor:

A College Catchechism

Q Give a brief historical

sketch of this college

A It was founded in 1864 dur-

ing Civil War days, and it is still

there

Q What is the motto of the

college?

A "Tradition is our most im-

portant product."

Q Will the light of some po-

litical renaissance ever dawn on

the wastelands of Academia

Batesina?

A No, but we are rapidly ret-

rogressing to the other extreme:

that moment of decay, that com-

forting darkness, that glorious

era when the individual's obliga-

tion to himself will be entirely

supplanted by the individual's

obligation to the group, to so-

ciety, to an imposed set of super-

ficially honorable standards, to

anxious parents, to the Adminis-

tration, to alumni, to the Board

of Trustees, and to the President

Q To anything else?

A To the common good of us

all

Q How shall we accomplish

this nirvana?

A First, we must get rid of

the troublemakers — the danger-

ous ones who have somewhere

seen their true value despite the

fact we have earnestly tried to

keep their scope blinkered

Q Secondly?

A Keep some of the rules

sufficiently ambiguous and their

respective punishments so vague,

[that great feelings of fear and dread will stop students from violating even the most inane regulation This is apprehension

of the Unknown

Q Elucidate on the objective

of rules and regulations

A The college policies and procedures are maintained to keep the average student from satisfying his normal common sense needs Here again, though, most of the children are so de- lightfully immature that "How to Study" has been incorporated in-

to the curriculum for next fall

The text is by the author of My Mind Was A Complete Blank

And Freshman Health has been extended throughout all four years

Q They just need their moth- ers with them all the time, poor, incapable, irresponsible things

Next condition?

A Do not establish prece- dents De not anger a Dean by asking him to make some small concession from the Blue Book

Q Why not?

A He will feel so foolish when he is reminded that he is upholding sham After all, he is upholding it for the sake of —

Q We've been through this part before What else?

A Well, the student body must be kept as one sluggishly pulsating lump College students are particularly chosen for their inability to think quickly and clearly

Q Why?

A Because of the presupposi-

bickering

people pass their time dickering on a trivia bloated to a universe

or a time silly spent

as other things abstracted wash past the hour losing stature to a lesser "it"

John Lovejoy

Brandeis Professor

(Continued from page one) that we arc living in a great social flux," stated Dr Fuchs

Technologically, changes brought about have been in a great mag- nitude, for such a short period

of time Dr Fuchs also remarked that Americans have been breaking with traditional politics

Population Shifts Fuchs then explained to the government class the effect on American politics, caused by the

i changes in the shifting of popu- lations The three movements making political cleavages obso- lete have been the "westward"

movement, the "agrarian" movement, and the migration to the

| suburbs

tion that it is best to plod smil- ingly, steadfastly onward in our broadening circles (i.e., ruts) and

to blush and modestly avert our puritan gaze from those sporadic thinkers who do not choose to recognize the magnificent glory

, of the masses

Q How does one lead the in- spirational life according to the divine law?

A One does not get caught — (The rest of this catechism, for some unknown reason, has been confiscated by the Disciplinary Committee.)

Diane Kellogg '6C

To the Editor:

We the members of the Men's Off-Campus Organization, have recently been the subject of a vote which perhaps surprised many We demanded the right to have the president of our group hold a voting seat on the Student Council

After the referendum, termed illegal due to certain technicali- ties, various comments were heard around the campus that seemed to indicate that a resent- ment to this proposal was emerging For this reason, we feel that it is our duty to set forth our demands, so that our position on this matter be clear and not misinterpreted

Disturbs Town Students The underlying desire of the organization in last Monday's vote is one that has disturbed town students for some time now

Off-Campus men are denied the right to run for candidacy to the Student Council

We are not given the right to

be represented by an official vote

on the Council because we cannot run for office Our president may sit in on its meetings, but

he has no vote

Realize Difficulties

We have no desire whatsoever

to create a controversy, nor to criticize any school or Council laws We believe that this ruling has been in effect for all these years because of the opinion that off-campus students are not ac- quainted with on-campus activities, principles, and students

We realize that some off-cam-

pus students find it difficult to be part of the college, because of the need for work, excessive com- muting, or other reasons How- ever, the majority do care for the school, do know of its policies and its customs, and do desire to have at least the right to run for candidacy to the Student Council,

as they have the right to be nom- inated to other offices in various organizations

May Vole Again Therefore, we must admit that the desire behind last Monday's referendum was to have the right

to run for office in this all-important campus organization We have perhaps faced the problem

in a way not appreciated by some, though we very nearly won the referendum, but, as stated above, due to a technicality no final decision was given

We have been given the right

to put f.he question to a vote again, with the same idea in view, that the off-campus president be automatically a member of the Student Council

Clarifies Wish However, we feel that whether

we should do so or not, we must clarify and state our one wish, that of at least having the right

to be officially represented in the Council, either by direct repre- sentation or by having the right

to run for office

It is our strong belief that once this is clear, the situation will be remedied, and any off-campus student may run for candidacy to

I the office, going through the reg- (Continued on page five) —-

FOUR THE BATES STUDENT, APRIL 30, 1958

Letters To The Editor

Editorials

Drinking Policy

The recent "Faculty Policy Statement on Intoxicants" as

issued in a letter to the student body has caused a great deal

of confusion in regard to the exact meaning of the drinking

policy at Bates Such disturbance over this matter is not new

In the past the student body has often become agitated over

what they feel to be an unjustifiably strict application of a

seemingly loose and rather vague rule

During the past week this problem has been accentuated

through the publication of various "Letters to the Editor" in

the STUDENT It is evident from these letters that many

students are opposed to the idea of having a vague policy

which permits the administration to take stern disciplinary

measures whenever they feel like it

These students would like to have in front of them a hard

and fast rule which states that they may do one thing and

may not do something else Yet they do not seem to realize

what such a rule would mean

Yes or No Answer?

The college is obviously in no position to state simply "We

permit drinking."' whether such permission be complete or

restricted Such a statement would be in definite contrast

to the conditions under which the college was established

and under which the college must continue to exist There-

fore, the administration would have to favor prohibition if

they were to take any stand at all

The college administration has realized that such a step

would not only be unpopular but impractical and unrealistic

as well Thus, they have made the drinking policy what it is

now in order to prevent damage to the students, facilities

and reputation of the college due to excessive drinking on

the part of a few At the same time they have allowed the

individual student some freedom as to his personal drinking

habits

The disciplinary action taken by the college in regard to

incidents involving drinking in the past few years has been

influenced primarily by the results of drinking rather than

the act of indulging In some cases the punishment has been

rather severe In other instances, such as some involving

driving-after-drinking, the punishment has been of a rela-

tively minor nature

Would Clamp Down For every student who is disciplined for his drinking there

are fifty who during their entire college careers are never

even questioned about how they got drunk Saturday night

and did something or other under the influence of alcohol

If the college were forced to take a "no" attitude on the

drinking question, then many of these students would find

themselves completing their college education at Boston Uni-

versity

As a student at Bates you have your choice: You can live

with the present attitudes and policy on drinking or you can

force the college to take a definite stand on this practice —

yes or no Which stand do you think the college would take

and whom would it hurt the most? Would the students be

the ones to benefit by such a policy revision? Would you?

In regard to the recent "Faculty Policy" letter to the stu-

dent body, it should be noted that it is primarily "a reminder

that the (present long-standing] policy is fully applicable

to the Outing Club Clambake and the Senior Outing" Any

student who is in doubt regarding the meaning of any part

of this letter should make it his business to discuss the mat-

ter with the Dean of Men or the dormitory proctor to whom

the meaning of the letter has been completely explained

Stu-G Thanks Bates Women For Cooperation

To the Editor:

The Student Government Board i has sincerely appreciated the re- j cent interest and effort of the!

Bates women regarding our current re-evaluation of both the rules under which wo live and of the honor code as a whole We as

a board have profited greatly from this survey of campus opinion and would like to thank each woman for her cooperative participation, i

We hope that these questionnaires have established the prece- dent of submitting constructive results of group discusion and personal thought directly to Stu- dent Government

Lists Areas Concerned Some of the areas concerned are pers and dormitory rules, house councils, house-mother relations, freshman rules, and proctor policies

In general, the answered questionnaires reveal two facts First, there is strong support for the honor code as a basis for our rules of communal living Second, the dissatisfaction voiced dealt with specific areas of the rules which have evolved from this code

Considers Changes

As a society develops and changes, so too should its rules change However, any changes of rules must be effected in the light

of consideration of the total group It must never be forgotten that our honor code is a social honor code dedicated to successful cooperative living as well as

a method of developing individual maturity

Each of the questionnaires was carefully read by members of the Student Government Board All criticisms and suggestions were compiled and tabulated They are being evaluated by the Board and will be discussed in dormitory meetings We hope this will be a part of a dynamic pro- cess of improvement of our system to further meet the needs of the women who believe in the principles of the honor code

Brandeis Professor

(Continued from page three) H'.' first spoke of the shift of the population's center towards the west and the coming impor- tance of areas in the Far West

Farmers have been flocking to the cities and city dwellers have migrated to the suburbs in what

Dr Fuchs termed as "regional urbanization."

The professor then elaborated

on the southern growth, by stating that during the years 1940-

1950, Southern urbanization has grown 35.9%, whereas the rest of the nation's urban areas have grown 15.2% This change along with Republican rising strength, will likely move the South to- ward a two-party system

Mid-West Slates Shift Large farmers are less enthusi- astic today about price-supports, noted Dr Fuchs, and the Repub- licans are paying the price for their price-support policy Dem- ocratic strength has gained in the Mid-West states, their growth being great and blunt in the farm states

Even more important than the westward movement has been the move to suburbs of the so-called

"regional urbanization." Fuchs explained the effect of the auto- mobile on both people and indus- tries But he remarked, "City dwellers cannot escape urban problems in the suburbs, for the suburbs cannot meet the rising costs without federal aid."

Four Developments Occur These changes causing the dis- appearance of party cleavages, have brought about four seminal

developments — the new economic role of government; changes in American foreign policy issues; America's growing wealth; and the forward movement of the American Negro

"Increased income taxes on up- per groups and federal aid to lower income bracket groups have helped distribute the wealth."

"Ethnic and religious factors don't mean as much now as in the 1940's Background and ex- periences mean less for party politics The NAACP hopes to register Negroes, to bring Negro representatives into Congress." Lists Symptoms

Fuchs then concluded his for- mal address by listing the chief symptoms in American politics First, there has been the wither- ing of one-party districts, with the obvious change in the south, but occurring in other places, too

Secondly, there has been the

"atrophy of party loyalty."

Thirdly, there has been the in- crease in the number of split- ticket voting, and lastly there has been the changing character

in American political structure

"To a large extent, the tradition-

al party worker is being supplanted by volunteer partisan workers."

Fuchs remarked that the character of political organizations has been changing, and that old patterns have been crumbling

"Issues and personalities seem to

be more important than ever before We are now entering a phase in American politics which

is new."

THE BATES STUDENT, APRIL 30, 1958 FIVE

To Drink Or Not To Drink

Letters ExpressFeelings OnDrinking

To the Editor:

It was with a sense of deep

and hearty approval that we read

the letter in last week's STU-

DENT on the drinking issue In a

world of conformity and un-

ashamed vice — and we boldly

and unblinkingly call it vice —

it is heart-warming and inspiring

to see a fine, moral, clean-cut

young man speak up for virtue

as he sees it, and call these bare-

faced sinners in our midst to ac-

count

It is apparent that this upstand-

ing young freshman letterwriter

was brought up as one should be

brought up In a time of flagrant

juvenile delinquency — and we

are thinking even now of the

horrible examples here on cam-

pus (friends, you wouldn't be-

lieve it), it is enough to bring a

gentle tear of hope to the eye to

find an unspoiled Christian lad

speaking out against the black

curse of alcohol, and against the

foibles of our dissipated youth

Think Before You Drink

If only our campus youth

would stop before that first

glass of soul-smirching liquor —

hold it suspended in air before

bringing it to their innocent

young lips — and say, "It this

what God would have me do?"

— they would never touch lip

to glass, but fling that vile heart-

poison against the wall

My friends, we are all in the

hands of God God bless that

clean and courageous spokesman

of last week's correspondence,

and may he always walk in

righteousness pure as the lovely

driven snow

To the Editor:

In the April 23 issue of the STUDENT, a classmate of mine had courage enough to air his views on the drinking policy of Bates College I must agree wholeheartedly with his' refer- ences to the ambiguity of the administration's new edict concerning drinking on our campus

However, I do not see eye to eye with my fellow student on the remainder of his letter

Mr Jackson states: "The administration must take a definite stand on the problem." I propose that they do not take a stand at all It is, as Mr Jackson wrote,

"student centered," and thus should be left up to the student himself whether to imbibe or not

Prohibition Fails

Mr Jackson would like to see set up "an improved system of personal advising" to "combat the individual's desire for re- lease through liquor." This bor- ders on the absurd As a good number of the students have par- taken of even "a little alchohol"

and thus have "twisted" personalities Bates College would then have to hire a troup of psychia- trists to handle the improved system of personal advising

If Mr Jackson will take a look back on fairly recent American history, he will see the complete failure of alcoholic prohibition as outlined under the 18th Amend- ment William Blake's words,

"Repression breeds pestilence,"

were never more graphically il- lustrated than in the days of bath-tub gin, bootlegging, and a wild craze of abandoned living

The repeal of prohibition ended much of this and gave testimony

to the abject failure of prohibi-

Respects Abstinence

To the Editor:

I would like to discuss two subjects in this letter

First of all I wish to compli- ment those people who contrib- uted to the recent art exhibit in the library The work shown there was well done and proves that there are many artistic and talented people at Bates College

I enjoyed the display and I am sure many others did

The second matter that comes

to my attention has nothing whatsoever to do with the previous subject What I would like

to do is express my complete agreement with the writer of the letter to the editor last week condemning the use of alcoholic beverages

Despairs Over Disease Throughout the ages mankind has turned to alcohol in despair and in joy Now is the time to rid man of this eternal disease Even our great religions use alcohol in their services and no one can doubt the claim that this is detrimental to the well being of society

But man in general and alcohol

in general is too broad a subject for my feeble mind so I hope to prove to the students of this college some of the beneficial results that might be obtained by having a completely dry campus

States Desirable Position

1 No more social drinking and the evils this entails We will

be far more able to turn down invitations to cocktail parties in later life This is important

2 Now that ominous time waster, the bull session over

a few cans of beer, can be completely eliminated Even naive ideas should not be ex- pressed, and alcohol breeds familarity

"Blasts" Cease

3 No longer will we have people charging madly to near-

by bars after a night of studying and a hard exam

This will teach us to endure suffering

4 The big weekend and Ma-

yoralty blasts will cease to exist Now our friends cannot laugh at us or we at them for foolish things said and done We will not have

to remember those moments

This will cut down excess conversation and enable us

to get at the serious business

at hand more rapidly

Shows Good Adjustment

5 Incoming students, knowing that alcohol is not permitted will know that Bates is a liberal, progressive school that caters to mature individuals I The lack of alcohol at Bates | will show we are truly well | adjusted to our surrounding!

culture

6 Our strength and will-power will make us known and en-i vied by the less fortunate, colleges with whom we come j

in contact

Advises Serious Consideration

In conclusion I will say I hope

Mr Jackson's advice is seriously considered Only then will the false prophet Omar Khayham be silenced, and on warm days his voice will not echo that horrible

refrain:

"Come fill the cup and in the fire

of spring your winter garment of repent- ance fling

The bird of time has but a little while to flutter

And lo, the bird is on the wing."

John Campbell

To the Editor:

In the last issue of the STU- DENT, there was a letter written

by one David W Jackson, ex- pressing concern over the drinking problem at Bates To be allowed to express my views, I have only one qualification, a middle-of-road viewpoint, for neither do I drink nor am I a standard bearer for the Wo- men's Christian Temperance Union Thus, I would like to re- fute or support several of Mr

Jackson's suppositions

(1) I am in complete agreement with him about the wording of the school's policy about drinking in consideration of the vagueness and rel- ative ambiguity The administration must definitely take a stand on the problem

Refutes Claim (2) However, I feel that his claim that the administration has not handled the problem firmly in the past is unjustified I am quite sure that each individual who because

and Austin

of drinking has caused some publicity detrimental to Bates has been firmly, quickly, and fairly dealt with

(3) Although I am on the opposite side for Mayoralty from Mr Jackson, I believe that his claim about the main incentive for winning, the promise of a "big blast," is completely unjustified Per- haps when the young man en- ters into the spirit of Mayor- alty, he will realize that his accusation has little basis If

he is correct, then the incentive would be to lose Mayoral-

ty, because that would mean a

"bigger blast." But no one can point to such existing negative attitudes

Feels It A Personal Problem (4) Perhaps alcohol is wrong for the individual It must be admitted that Mr Jackson has the weight of the American Medical Association and the National Safety Council on his side But I sincerely feel that this is indeed a personal problem, and only involves the administration when the individual commits some damage, either to something material, or to the school's reputation Who is to say that I, one who does not drink, is less "twisted" than those in the next room? The final truth must lie within the individual Therefore, I would like to refer Mr Jackson to Proverbs 19:1, and only hope that as he is buf- feted by the realities of life, he will never lose his ideals, but only his attitude of a temperance missionary to the men of Bates

By ALAN WAYNE The forthcoming departure of a certain southern gentleman

from the swollen banks of the somber Androscoggin to those

of the lethargic, but picturesque Mississippi is a clear ex-

ample of what is one institution's loss, is another's gain and

in this case The Principia of Elsah, Illinois, has registered a

very valuable first down in the personage of one Mr Verne

Ullom

Ullom, in his two years at Bates as varsity basketball and

assistant football coach and junior varsity baseball mentor,

gave local sportsdom a sorely-needed shot in the arm Com-

bining a wealth of sports experience, a dynamic competitive

spirit and a confidence in his productions, he instilled into

his players, oft-times with a "slight" lack of subtlety, a de-

sire to excel which certainly bore fruits as a glance at the

record book will prove

Last week, one of Verne's proteges was overheard stating

with deep admiration and respect that "he develops you."

This short phrase, I think, hits the nail on the head as far as

characterizing the vast ability of the University of Cincin-

nati alumnus, Class of 1944

In basketball, after one year he moulded together a

hustling, fast-breaking combine that refused to quit and

chased Colby to the final game before losing out in a valiant

championship bid Out of supposedly mediocre material, he

fashioned Bates' first winning hoop squad in several years

With guys like Capt Will Callender, Capt.-elect Jack O'Gra-

dy, Bob Burke, Jerry Feld, Jim DeMartine and others, he

re-established Bates on the court and leaves a squad which

should be even better come next December

As line coach on the gridiron, Ullom perhaps made his

deepest impression His two seasons saw the Bobcats field

undoubtedly two of the finest forward walls to grace New

England yard stripes and certainly they were influential in

helping to capture the State Title in 1956 and a tie last fall

Stellar linemen like All-Mainers Phil Carletti, Brian Flynn,

John Liljestrand, and Wayne Kane, plus co-captain elect

Jim Geanakos, Bill Hayes, Dick Ellis, Larry Hubbard, George

Dresser, to mention a few, benefited no small degree from

Ullom's tutelage

It is quite evident that in a short space of time he turned

in a high-caliber job not only in the sports world, but also

in the field of public relations and as TV's Lonesome George

used to moan "you can't hardly get them kind any more."

His vacancy will be a difficult one to fill

To conclude this treatise of bon voyage, I would like to

extend, together with Mr Meshako and all Garnet fans, best

wishes for continued success to Verne Ullom — a very talent-

ed guy

to M.I.T was the doings of a sev- enth inning two-run producing homer by Engineer catcher Good- now off starter Bob Graves

Bates scored their first run in the sixth when Mai Block singled, stole second, and came home

on Joe Murphy's line single to left field The final tally came in the eighth when Al DeSantis smashed a two-baser and scored

on a Danny Young bouncer to short that was thrown wild to first

Joe Murphy was the lone Bates batsman to be able to solve the slants of the opposition, getting two safeties

Bates Loses 6-5

The Bates golfers opened their

1958 season with one win and two losses on three beautiful golf days in the Boston area this past weekend Working out of the Bellvue Hotel, the linksters dropped their initial match to powerful Tufts, a second to Bab- son, and ended up their Bean Town swing with a victory over Clark University

Prolhero Wins Invading Sagamore Springs Country Club in Lynnfield, Mass., the Bobcats dropped a 6-1 decision to the Tufts Jumbos

John Prothero survived as the sole Bates point getter as he carded a 77 score, the best medal score of the day Ross Deacon, in the number one position for Bates, started well but faltered

on the second round to lose to Pat Lynch, four up and three to go

Coach Bob Hatch's golfers then traveled to soggy Sandy Burr Babson College of Wellesley

Country Club in Wayland to meet With long ball hitting by Dick Glass and consistant freshmen, Bob Zering, the only Garnet winners, the Bates club dropped their second match 5-2 Zering, troubled by poor course drainage facilities, stood out in the loser's cause as he capped medal honors with a 77 score Butch Heidel, playing out of number two position, shot an 80 for second honors

Salvage Final Match Clark University became the Cats' first victim of the season in

a closely contended match Hiedel came home with a 5 and 4 victory Impressive Mai Johnson won easily and Jon Prothero edged out a victory on the last hole Ross Deacon, Bob Zering, and Captain Pete Jodaitis were defeated as the match neared an end

With the match knotted at 3-3, strong Dick Glass became the hero of the day as he won his number seven position match by default to give the^Garnet a victory

Netmen Win Two And Lose One; Parker, Graham Lead Visitors

The tennis team returned home after its annual Boston trip show- ing a commendable 2-1 record in weekend competition against Babson, Clark and Tufts, giving them an overall mark of three wins and one loss

Dominate Singles Against a weak Babson team

on Thurhday, Bates triumphed 6V2-2'^ with one match being called due to darkness The Bob- cats swept the first five singles, thereby clinching the match Pete Meilen, playing number one had little trouble in defeating Tod Bowen 6-4, 6-2 In the second spot, Phil Feinsot easily took Bob Carroll 6-3, 6-2 Craig Parker in third position defeated Jack Mor- ris 6-1, 6-1, while Jeff Mines playing five, won over Bob Long 6-4, 6-1 Dave Graham whipped Kenny Palmer 6-4, 5-7 6-3, with Bruce Johnson losing to Adrian Heap 6-4, 3-6, 10-8 in through sets

As the match was already won, Coach Lux gave Mines and Gra- ham a chance to gain experience

at first doubles, but Babson's Charlie Crane and Carroll sound-

ly trounced them 6-1, 6-1 In the second doubles, Pete Huycke and Parker won over Morris and Sam Hahn 7-5, 6-4 Darkness ended the third double of Johnson and Howie Kunreuther against Pal- mer and Long with the score 5-5

in the third set

The following day, the netmen traveled to Clark where they were victorious by the score of 5-4 Once again the Cats were strong in the singles, taking four

of six

Meilen, Feinsot Star Meilen defeated Neil Walsh in three sets 6-3, 2-6, 6-0 in a pres- sure-packed match This is the second straight time that Meilen has beaten Walsh who is a rank- ing tennis player in the East

Parker showed great form in defeating Mike Aronson 6-4, 6-0

Mines and Graham, in fourth and fifth spots respectively, topped Dick Brockman and Paul Debia

Far and away the best match

of the day and probably of the trip saw Feinsot finally lose to Tony Aronson 6-3, 9-11, 7-5, as both players were at their top games The entire match was fea- tured by long volleys with each contestant looking for the "put away" shot As the Clark coach said "it was tremendous tennis

on both sides." Huycke, playing number six, dropped a tough one

to Hugh Schrader 1-6, 6-4, 6-4 after winning the first set deci- sively

Doubles Are Decisive

In the doubles Graham and Mines won the fifth point of the match to clinch the victory, as they outmaneuvered Debia and Schrader 6-3, 6-2 Parker and Huycke were dumped by the duo

of Aronson and Brockman, while the first doubles was called after the first set with Walsh and T

Aronson leading over Meilen and Feinsot

On Saturday, the Bobcats met Tufts at Medford and suffered a bad day, losing 6-3 Only Parker and Graham were able to win their singles matches Playing at

third spot, Parker defeated Dick Levine 7-5, 6-4 while Graham

at five beat Bob Goldberger 6-2, 6-4

Meilen was defeated for the first time in twelve matches by

Al Savran 5-7, 7-5, 6-4, in a match that consisted of a half- lob return on Savran's part, as he wanted Pete to make the error Feinsot lost another tough one to Tony Apsey 2-6, 6-3, 6-2 Mines lost his number four singles match to Dick Clarey 6-3, 9-7

In the doubles, Meilen and Feinsot defeated Savran and Apsey 7-5, 6-4 Parker and Huycke lost to Clarey and Le- vine, while Goldberger and Tidz whipped Mines and Graham Parker Graham Shine Overall, it was a successful trip with the only black mark at Tufts Parker and Graham turned out to be the big winners, winning all three of their singles and one of the doubles As of now, Graham is 4-0 in singles, while Parker and Meilen are 3-1

to defeat South Portland High

last Saturday, 4-3, for their sec-

Deuillet's homer — the first of

the year over the new 350 foot

fence at Garcelon Field — came

off loser Billy Wright in the

eighth inning after a walk to

Dick Gurney and a single by

Scott Brown The Bobkittens'

Catcher Gurney and center- fielder Deillet teamed up for the defensive play of the day On a MacPhee single hit to center, Portland's Huff attempted to score from second A perfect

Deuillet throw reached the

sturdy Garnet receiver simultan- eously with Huff who was bull- dozing his way in to score In the collision Gurney guarded the plate and held onto the ball for the troublesome putout

Brown collected two of the seven Garnet hits off the three South Portland hurlers Mac- Phee got both the safeties off Bennett Deuillet's blast carried about 15 feet over the 350 mark-

er for the longest hit of the year

Sparkle On Defense

As was the case in the first Jayvee contest, Bates played good defensive ball behind Ben- nett's hurling Doug Rowe start- ing his first game as a Jayvee, showed his ability to handle the first sack mitt as he made a number of fine plays The Garnet out- field again enjoyed an easy afternoon as MacPhee's two singles were the only balls hit out of the infield

impressive score the meet wasn't that interesting Northeastern was plagued by injuries and a number of cases of ineligibility due to the end of the semester

at the Boston school, forcing them to scratch entries in almost every event The Huskies were able to pick up only two firsts,

in the mile and two-mile, and in two other events had only one contestant

Neuguth Ties Record Running against the wind, Bill Neuguth still managed to tie the

finished 1-2 in the javelin

Makowsky pulled away to a 10.3 second victory in the 100 and Jeff Kenyon led all the way out

of the chute to take the 880 run

Huskies Win Mile Events Northeastern's firsts came on the strength of Tom Thomasian's

win in the mile followed by a

tie between Thomasian and Mai Hill of the Huskies for the lead

in the two-mile Dick Dube got the third by about 30 yards in the latter event and freshman Dewitt Randall moved into second in the mile as he passed Fred Turner who had set the pace for the first three quarters

The time of the mile was a
