(A glance to the right will quickly tell you whose face was on the receiving end.) The pie thrower paid $85 for the privilege of pushing the pie into that face, and, to be sure, the money went for a worthy cause. To find out what it was all about, turn to page 2.

DANCE MARATHON W&L Dancers and Pie Throwers Raise $17,179 for Muscular Dystrophy Victims Audrey Hepburn sang it in My Fair Lady, and it should have been the theme song for Washington and Lee’s first muscular dystrophy dance marathon, which took place on the University campus March 23-25. “T could have danced all night,” is exactly what 60 determined dancers did in an effort to raise at least $5,000 for “those who couldn't dance for themselves”—those stricken by a crippling villain, MD. The 30 Washington and Lee gentlemen and their lady partners began to “trip the light fantastic” on the tiled floor of Evans Dining Hall at 8 p.m. Friday. Although the dancing was somewhat different from that in Fred Astaire’s and Ginger Rogers’s 1937 movie, Shall We Dance?, the dancers became what today’s “Queen of the Discos’ —Grace Jones—would have called “one night stars.” In the words of one of her biggest disco hits, the dancers had to “Do or Die.” And “do” they did. By 3 a.m. Sunday the dancers had raised $17,179 towards muscular dystrophy research and treatment—more than $12,000 over the goal. To raise this money, each dancer (or couple) had obtained, earlier in the week, individual pledges and community business sponsorships. The sponsors agreed to pay a set amount for each hour a dancer stayed on the dance floor or a “flat” fee for completing the 30-hour marathon. The marathon, sponsored by the Interfraternity Council, was received with great enthusiasm and support from the townspeople and the area business community. Lexington Mayor Charles F. Phillips Jr., who also is a W&L professor of economics, declared the weekend “Muscular Dystrophy Weekend” for the city, and a number of area bands volunteered to play for the dancers during the marathon, giving the music a range from Tammy Wynette (country-western) to Donna Summer (disco). The 16 social fraternities at Washington and Lee sponsored a party Friday afternoon in Red Square to inaugurate the weekend program. To help the dancers survive the 30-hour ordeal, 15-minute rest breaks were given each hour and between 4 a.m. and 6 a.m. Saturday, a two-hour break was given to allow the dancers to shower and freshen up. Jay J. Blumberg of Boonton, N. J., chairman of the marathon and a junior at Washington and Lee, while dressed throughout the 30 hours in a tuxedo, reminded one again of the star of My Fair Lady—this time during the races at Ascot—encouraging, whole heartedly, the dancers to move “thar bloomin’ arsses.” Explaining his somewhat cheerleader- like antics, Jay confided to a Richmond Times-Dispatch reporter, “I just want to give them a lift; they are the ones doing it all.” Also to help distract the dancer’s attention from their fatigue and protesting muscles (near the end of the marathon a few dancers had their knees wrapped in bandages) and to raise more money, several W&L professors and a Lexington policeman, well-known for his strict attention to the law, volunteered to act as a target for a cream pie. Each pie—with a target to go along with it—was auctioned to the highest bidder. Dr. Edward C. Atwood, Dean of the Commerce School, fetched the highest price of any target—$85. The most popular event with the students, however, was a wet T-shirt contest Saturday night. Another highlight of the marathon was the appearance of Dennis Potter of Roanoke, the Muscular Dystrophy Association's poster child for Southwest Virginia. He inspired the dancers to carry on ‘til the last dance. By 3 a.m. Sunday the sore and weary dancers had, no doubt, just one song lingering in their heads, Cher’s “Take Me Home.” Pictures below show the marathon scene; in the center, decked out in tuxedo, marathon chairman Jay Blumberg struts his stuff; that other man with pie on his face is Officer Purvis, the nemesis of We>L miscreants. by H. Thomas Williams Jr. Assistant Professor of Physics THREE MILE ISLAND AFTERMATH W&L Physicist Speculates on the Questions Educated Laymen Should Consider In the aftermath of the crisis this spring at the Three Mile Island nuclear power generation plant near Harrisburg, Pa., many scientists have found themselves designated—often unwillingly—as nuclear power experts, and have been barraged with questions and even accusations about the incident. Since I am a physicist by training and profession, I have found myself occasionally treated thus. I am not, however, an expert in nuclear power generation in general, nor in nuclear reactors or nuclear safety in particular. In that respect I am unqualified to add to the already numerous (and often conflicting) explanations of what happened at Three Mile Island, or to the equally numerous suggestions (equally in conflict) about what should be done as a result. As a voter, educator, and scientist, however, I will be bold enough to speculate on some of the matters which need now to be considered about nuclear energy, public safety, and public policy. A multitude of technical questions must be addressed by technical people, of course—by the people who design, build, and operate nuclear reactors in particular. What actually caused the overheating of the reactor core and the subsequent radiation leak? Could it have been prevented? How? Once it had occurred, could it have been brought under control more quickly? What is now to be done about the damaged reactor? What reactor design changes are necessary to reduce the probability of recurrence? These are basically questions for science and for scientists— but the scientific method notwithstanding, they will be answered in different ways by different authorities. Public policy decisions, based on the answers to those questions and others, will generally be made by non-scientists, and therein lies a great problem for the decision-makers and the rest of us. The scientists who study the problems must act in an advisory role to the decision-makers in the power-generation industry and at various levels of government. Ultimately, the major decisions will be made by the Congress. Typically, a 4 Congressman is a lawyer; most Congressmen have liberal arts backgrounds. The sum of scientific training among members of Congress is miniscule, and that portion of that miniscule scientific training which is pertinent to examination of the Three Mile Island questions is much smaller yet. In order to make intelligent and appropriate policy decisions, therefore, our lawmakers will have to decide among paths suggested by nuclear experts who themselves are in considerable conflict. Suggested responses already range from “No one was injured or killed, and why should we worry” to “We must shut down every nuclear power plant until we can be guaranteed absolutely that no accident will ever occur again.” Congressmen must be sensitive to the absurdity of both extremes; they must progress to more subtle distinctions. Among the considerations that have to be faced by legislators are these: Not all scientists are honest and not all are competent. How can one distinguish between good science and bad? How does one decide among conflicting scientific viewpoints? The simple fact that there can be more than one valid scientific viewpoint on a single issue might come as a surprise to laymen; it is nevertheless true. What are the important criteria to be weighed when formulating policy which will have consequences for literally hundreds of generations? In presenting information about the Three Mile Island crisis to the public, the news media sometimes represented the confusion of the initial days accurately. In other instances, however, the media aggravated or even created the confusion. Throughout the weekend following the initial March 28 occurrence, such headlines were commonly printed as “Nuclear Plant Potentially Explosive.” In point of narrow technical fact, the headline was accurate. But to much of the lay public, conditioned by nuclear holocaust fiction or by scenarios postulated by those who are ideologically opposed to nuclear power and weaponry policies, the two words “nuclear” and “explosive” in juxtaposition conjured up visions of mushroom clouds, widespread death, and general devastation. Tom Williams received his B.S. and Ph.D. degrees in physics from the University of Virginia and has taught at W&L since 1974. He is a specialist in electromagnetism and nuclear theory. He has been a National Science Foundation post-doctoral fellow and is the author of numerous research articles. He and University Historian Taylor Sanders have developed an inter- disciplinary program for laymen on 19th-century “natural philosophy” in a 20th-century academic context. The fact is that the Three Mile Island reactor was never in danger of becoming a nuclear bomb. The feared explosion would have been a chemical one. The radiation leakage accompanying such a chemical explosion could indeed have been disastrous— but there would not have occurred the release of awesome energy and power of a true nuclear blast. The headline was misleading—frighteningly so—even though technically accurate. The Tidewater Virginia radio station that opened a newscast with “Eastern Virginia nuclear accident—details to follow” was guilty of similarly poor judgment. The news media must search for answers to several questions about their own role in the way the Three Mile Island incident was represented to the public. In such matters, when the subject is poorly understood both by reporters and by their readers and listeners, how can the rights of the media to report and the public to know be satisfied? Who, among those who understand the scientific complexities and uncertainties of such a subject, are the media’s “usually reliable sources ? Should the media subject themselves, at least temporarily, to outside supervision over the release of information when the subject and the manner of its reporting can so easily produce public panic? The public in a democracy must accept final responsibility for policy decisions of its government. The American people - must, as best they can, develop an understanding of the problems so conspicuously posed by the Three Mile Island accident—and develop an understanding of the multiplicity of possible solutions. Beyond the dilemma of conflicting “expert” opinion, the public is faced with the problem of receiving nearly all its information about the controversy through only-partially- understanding news media. Sorting it all out is far from easy. We in the public must look for intelligent answers to the same questions our legislators face. What are the limitations of science? To what extent are the questions raised as a result of Three Mile Island scientific, and to what extent are they ethical and moral? How shall we choose to educate our youth to answer even more demanding and troublesome questions in coming decades? Educators need to examine the existing system of teaching, at all levels, from the point of view of the degree of understanding and appreciation of science they provide the non- scientific majority. We cannot hope to make nuclear experts of everyone so as to be able to handle future Three Mile Islands wisely—just as the general public cannot, for example, aspire to learn enough about biochemistry to be able confidently to make decisions in the field of genetic engineering. But it is not too much to expect that we should produce educated citizens, regardless of field of academic emphasis, who have a comprehension of what science is, of how it is carried out, of what constitutes scientific “fact,” of science’s limitations. Taking a single science course in school does not provide this insight; even a college degree in a science does not often lead to this kind of appreciation of science as a whole. Most members of twentieth-century American society who are well educated have been taught an appreciation of the arts. The analagous eighteenth-century appreciation of science— “natural philosophy’—has all but disappeared, even as it has changed from the status of intellectual luxury to near- requirement for ultimate survival. by Irwin T. Sanders, ’29 PHI BETA KAPPA ADDRESS In Community Service, “Let Us Not Overlook Noblesse Oblige of the Mind” Dr. Irwin T. Sanders, a 1929 graduate of Washington and Lee and professor emeritus and former chairman of the Department of Sociology and Anthropology at Boston University, delivered the annual Phi Beta Kappa-Society of the Cincinnati address at WL on March 22. He has also taught at the University of Kentucky, the University of Wisconsin, and the Harvard School of Public Health. He has served in the U.S. Embassy in Belgrade, Yugoslavia, and as associate director of the International Training and Research Program at the Ford Foundation. He has been president of the Southern Sociological Society and the Rural Sociological Society and has been on the council of the American Sociological Association and the International Sociological Association. For his research on peasants in the Balkans, he was elected as a Foreign Member of the Bulgarian Academy of Sciences and was decorated with the Royal Order of the Phoenix by the Greek government. Dr. Sanders is the uncle of Dr. I. Taylor Sanders I1, associate professor of history and University historian at WerL, and the brother of Stuart Sanders II of Richmond, a 1931 graduate of the University. Dr. Sanders began his address: “Any person who has had a liberal arts education should make a contribution to his or her local community. That is my message today.” There is much to be said on this topic, but I will limit myself to two of the more important points: namely, that of social commitment and that of putting one’s mind to work in local problem-solving. Social commitment: In my community studies I have interviewed scores of community leaders, people who were involved in making key decisions affecting various aspects of community life. Some, obviously, are acting completely out of a narrow self-interest, but a surprisingly large number have a strong sense of social commitment to their community. It is just such a commitment that the liberal arts should reinforce. For one thing, the study of history and literature clearly demonstrates that a single individual can make a difference in his surroundings; one’s effectiveness is of course multiplied as one knows how to work through the existing social structures related to the program or cause one seeks to serve. When I was at Washington and Lee 50 years ago, there still existed in American communities a sense of noblesse oblige on the part of the most secure, public-spirited families. Those with inherited wealth endowed museums, financed orchestras, and served on many boards of organizations dealing with health and welfare problems. They recognized themselves as part of the most favored stratum of society and therefore felt a responsibility for those less fortunate. They also saw themselves as champions of the arts in behalf of the general public. Most liberal arts students at that time either came from, or were soon to enter, the privileged upper middle or upper classes—at least as measured in terms of their social position in 6 He developed this theme by describing some of his experiences and observations as a community sociologist over almost five decades, a period during which he conducted dozens of community studies, including major studies of peasant life in Bulgaria, village life in Greece, and village life at various degrees of depth in other East European countries, Africa, the Middle East, and South Asia; absorbing studies of rural, non- urbanized communities in the United States, and in-depth looks at urban cominunities ranging from Levittown, Long Island, to Portland, Maine, from Westerly, Rhode Island, to Lowell, Massachusetts. He also discussed community action, explaining that many community sociologists are not content with merely conducting research, teaching, and writing. “We want to test our ideas and competence in the field of social action,” which, he said, has at least three dimensions: developing new research methods, consultation, and training. The features of a community sociologist at work, he said, “move from the relatively quiet academic study where one can think through theoretical problems about community life to the market place, so to speak, where one encounters daily problems and engages in social action.” It was against this background that he returned to the original question: “What is the connection between a liberal arts education and community participation?” He continued: the communities from which they came. With the increased role of government in every phase of human activity and with the stress on equality and human rights, the noblesse oblige of 50 years ago is only a memory—and perhaps it should be. Fortunately, for institutions like Washington and Lee, there are still generous individuals among us, but theirs is not the older type of community noblesse oblige. There is a need today for another kind of noblesse oblige—not one based on inherited wealth, but rather one founded on mental ability, the kind that Phi Beta Kappa seeks to represent. This is not an elitism which seeks to maintain the privileges for the few, but rather a sense of social dedication. Since one possesses certain abilities in greater measure, one’s duty to the community is therefore all the greater. The parable of the talents in the New Testament is as true today as it was two thousand years ago. It was Robert E. Lee himself who said: Duty is the sublimest word in our language. Do your duty in all things. You cannot do more. You should never wish to do less. We may not go quite so far as the General, but if the quality of American community life (and therefore life in America) is to improve, the best minds in the community must set themselves the task of figuring out the best ways of dealing with local problems. The liberal arts education that is true to its heritage makes one familiar with and a recognized part of the human condition. Out of this can grow a social commitment which can often find expression in community service. Let us not overlook the noblesse oblige of the mind. a Dr. Irwin T. Sanders, eminent sociologist Asking the critical questions: A second connection between the liberal arts and the kind of service I have in mind is the ability to ask the critical questions in the community context. Three questions can illustrate what this involves. What is Justice? Socrates drove Athens crazy by posing the question of what is a just man. We do not have to be a Socrates nor seek his fate with the poison hemlock to be able to inject into the discussions of community issues considerations which are often ignored. If we really subscribe to the Phi Beta Kappa motto—Philosophy the Guide of Life—then our liberal arts education should have helped us develop a personal philosophy that moves us beyond the short-run interests of the present to the implications of human action for the future. Too many community leaders are asking: What is expedient? What will bring in increased federal revenues? How can we reduce local taxes even though this short-changes people who deserve some help along life’s difficult path? Along with the social commitment, therefore, should go the willingness to ask the tough questions even though one knows that there are no ready-made answers. But as people deliberate on these questions, philosophical in substance, they are more likely to arrive at a fair, beneficial, satisfying course of action than might otherwise have resulted. What is beauty? The liberal arts student knows that aesthetics are a part of the human landscape just as much as pragmatics. Think what a difference J. Irwin Miller and those associated with him in the Cummins Engine Company have made because they insisted that every major building in Columbus, Indiana, be designed by some nationally-known architect. The town has an ethos of its own. Beauty is respectable. In so many other communities aesthetic considerations are not taken into account by those making economic or political decisions. Indeed, in today’s world pollution has become the antithesis of beauty. The destruction of streams for fishing and bathing, the fumes that produce smog that shuts out the beauty of the nearby mountains, unplanned communities where all land uses are mixed in a jumble of billboards, deteriorating dwellings, and fast food places—these should grate on the nerves of those who think that man is destined for better things. I still remember with pleasure the activity of the garden club in one community we studied. The women were unsuccessful in their battle to have a junkyard relocated to a site distant from the leading entrance to their community. But they were not licked. They planted rose bushes so that during much of the year the flowers hid from view the eyesore which was destroying the image of the community they were trying to create. This episode is a reminder that women in the past have been the major volunteers in community programs; that without their insistence many things would never get accomplished. Now that more women are working outside -the home, the pool of such volunteers is drying up. This is all the more reason why men should seriously consider community service as an extra- curricular activity. What promotes a sense of community? Much is being written today about the alienation of individuals and groups in our society. Marxists see this as an invariable characteristic of capitalist societies; non-Marxists stress the rootlessness that derives from the high mobility of our population plus the rapidity with which social change overtakes us. It comes so fast that the experience of one generation is very unlike that of the generation 25 years earlier; and it will be different from the experiences 25 years later. Have we in America lost our sense of community? Do we as individuals feel isolated from our fellows; do we categorize our society in terms of antagonistic groups out to get our group; have we given up faith that citizens as individuals and in groups can do something about the drift in our society? Perhaps our greatest failing is that of waiting for some leader in Washington to ignite the spark of sacrifice and service, to bring people across our nation together into one people. However, anyone who has studied the history of democracies knows that such a figure only arises on very rare occasions; at times, the people pay the price of surrendering freedoms that they seldom ever get back. The solution is not that of waiting for a white knight on horseback; it is rather that of beginning in our own local communities to bring people together, to give everybody a greater sense of participation. This happens only if people feel that their participation really makes a difference. 7 PHI BETA KAPPA ADDRESS Although there is much conflict in every community—and that is where it can best be handled—there can also be healing in a community. A liberal arts education should equip us to deal with the commonalities among man, while still recognizing inevitable differences. What Walter Lippman once called the “toleration of diversity’ can be the basis for stability and reduced alienation. These are tough questions. What is justice? What is beauty? What promotes a sense of community? Liberal arts graduates, more than anyone in our society, should be able to pose them properly and in the right context. Systematic exposure to philosophy, history, the heritage of the arts, the analytical skills supplied by the natural and social sciences should stand one in good stead as a community leader. Furthermore, the liberal arts person should know enough about human nature to realize that there are never solutions to human problems; rather there are only more effective and less effective ways of dealing with the problems. We need to put our minds to work to be sure that the most effective choices are made. My own liberal arts education at Washington and Lee prepared me in a way I never thought possible to understand 8 Dr. Sanders (center) with nephew, Dr. I. Taylor Sanders Il, WGL historian, and brother, Stuart Sanders II, ’31. the peasants in a Bulgarian village perched on a Balkan mountainside. This is because I saw in the peasants the same universals I had read about in Thomas Hardy, Shakespeare, and Plato's Republic. Liberal arts training helped me understand the complexities of the American community primarily because in psychology and literature courses I had learned much about the complexity of human nature. I realized, therefore, the folly of looking for simplistic answers to difficult problems. The historical perspective prepared me to deal with the unexpected twists of community change and in some small way to be able to help direct the change toward what most people considered the public good. Later study of sociology and anthropology provided me the concepts and theory which helped me make sense out of what otherwise would have been a confusing panorama. I trust that in your own case you will find in your own local community or some major organization serving as its counterpart a place where you can demonstrate your social commitment and put your mind to work in grappling with never-ending problems. I know that you will ask the pertinent questions and help work out programs that benefit not just some elite few but the general good of the community. W, CAZETTE Ce $80,000 deferred gift will result in MacCorkle Fund Dr. Stuart A. MacCorkle of Austin, Texas, a 1924 Washington and Lee graduate who taught government at the University of Texas for 37 years, has made an $80,000 gift to W&L eventually to establish a teaching and research endowment in the Washington and Lee politics department. Dr. MacCorkle made his gift through the University’s Pooled Income Fund, which permits a donor to make a substantial capital contribution to Washington and Lee but to continue receiving income from the capital sum throughout his own lifetime and the lifetime of a beneficiary if he wishes. The donor receives an immediate income-tax deduction for a proportion of the gift’s value. The $80,000 gift from Dr. MaeCorkle will become the Stuart Alexander | MacCorkle and Lucille Emerson f MacCorkle Endowment Fund, with the income used for teaching, training, study and research activities in political science at W&L. Dr. MacCorkle’s design is to initiate a program to support lectureships, seminars, publications and library acquisitions. Dr. MacCorkle began his teaching career at Texas in 1930. He was also director of the Texas Institute of Public Affairs from 1952 until 1967. He is the author of numerous books on municipal government, the government of Texas, and America’s policy of recognition of Mexico, which was also the topic of his Ph.D. dissertation at Johns Hopkins. He received an honorary LL.D. degree from Washington and Lee in 1964. He is an honorary life member of the International City Managers’ Association and was mayor pro tem of Austin in 1951- 53 and again in 1969-70. His numerous public- and government-service positions have also included the executive directorship of the Texas Economy Commission and a principal advisory role in public administration at Seoul (Korea) National University in 1958-60. He has taught as a visiting professor or guest lecturer at Southwestern University in Memphis, Tenn., and at the Universities of Mexico and Maryland. In 1964 he was a Fulbright-Hayes lecturer at the College of Europe in Belgium. Dr. MacCorkle now devotes his full time to consultation, travel and writing. 0S a $25,000 gift to C-School honors 1893 W&L graduate The Harris and Eliza Kempner Fund of Galveston, Texas, has made a $25,000 grant to Washington and Lee in memory of the late Issac H. Kempner Sr., an 1893 W&L graduate. The gift will be used toward the $3.5-million cost of renovating McCormick Library to become the new home of the School of Commerce, Economics and Politics, and a unit in the building will be named in recognition of the foundation’s gift and Mr. Kempner’s career. Issac Kempner was the eldest son of Harris and Eliza Kempner, for whom the fund is named. He was chairman of Galveston’s U.S. National Bank and was mayor of the city during World War II. Known as © Mister Galveston,” he was honored by the Washington and Lee Mrs. Whitney Young with W&L Artist-in-Residence I-Hsiung Ju Two Generous Gifts Boost W&L’s Commerce School Development Alumni Association in 1961 at a banquet in his honor. He died in 1967 at the age of 94. SSIS es Mrs. Whitney Young speaks on education, visit to China Mrs. Margaret Young—civic worker, author, businesswoman and foundation executive—visited Washington and Lee this spring and delivered a major address to students, faculty and townspeople on her views of education and her impressions of American society in contrast with mainland China’s. Mrs. Young is the widow of Whitney M. Young Jr., executive director of the National Urban League until his death in 1971. Mrs. Young is chairman of the memorial foundation named in her husband's honor, which awards fellowships to individuals who demonstrate interest and talent in the fields of Whitney Young’s special concerns. She is also a member of the board of directors of Philip Morris Inc., together with W&L President Huntley, who is a member of the Whitney Young Founda- tion fellowship selection committee. Mrs. Young's visit to W&L was VS & GAZETTE sponsored by the University Lectures Committee in cooperation with the Student Association for Black Unity. She met informally throughout the day of her visit with W&L students and with teachers and University officials, and after her talk in Lee Chapel she was the guest of honor at a reception in the Alumni House. Mrs. Young is widely active in public service organizations as a trustee of New York City’s Lincoln Center, the Metropolitan Museum of Art, and the U.S. Military Academy at West Point. She has been extremely active as a United States representative on a number of United Nations commissions. The children’s books she has written include “picture life” biographies of Martin Luther King Jr., Ralph Bunche and Thurgood Marshall and two black history texts, First Book of American Negroes and Black American Leaders. Her visit to W&L came almost immediately after she returned from the People’s Republic of China, and she reported to her W&L audience that she found that country’s regard for education and individuality to contrast badly with the attitudes she sees in the United States. Her China experience, she said, moved her to a more acute appreciation of the worth of education as it is available to Americans. “I have been concerned,’ she said, “that some of us take our responsibility for learning too lightly. Some of us take our opportunity to learn for granted. “The hope for our nation is in a well- educated, enlightened citizenry. The benefits accrue to us not just individually in our ability to raise and maintain our own standard of living, but collectively as well. Even among my own people, the hard- fought battles of the DuBoises, the Dr. Kings, the Whitney Youngs for equal opportunity are not fully appreciated. “Any mind is a terrible thing to waste.” Expansion of Evans Hall kitchen facilities underway The University began an 1,800-square- foot addition to the kitchen of Evans Hall, its dining facility, this spring to meet a nearly doubled demand on W&L's food services operation since Evans was opened 20 years ago. The $795,000 project, which is not a part of the ongoing Development 10 Program, is scheduled for completion by the time undergraduate classes begin in September. The cost figure includes $150,000 in kitchen equipment. The facade of the new wing, located between the existing dining hall and the law dormitories to the west on Washington Street across from the Lee House, will blend in with the other brick buildings on that side of the street. The expansion will effectively double the size of the University's food-service kitchen facilities. Evans was designed 20 years ago to serve an average of 350 students per meal, but today it serves between 600 and 650, and the dining hall is also called on to supply meal service for a wide range of University events—such as alumni reunions—and has become popular with townspeople and community and civic groups as well. As a consequence, refrigeration, storage, and baking and cooking space became impossibly overcrowded and inadequate. ee Visitors to Lewis Hall The School of Law had an abundance of eminent jurists as visiting lecturers this spring: — U:S. District Court Judge Charles W. Joiner of Detroit, former dean of the law school at Wayne State University, who spoke on the topic “Appellate Advocacy from the Judge’s Viewpoint’ ; — Herbert Brownell, former United States Attorney General in the first Eisenhower administration and campaign manager for Thomas Dewey in 1948, on the topic “The Role of the Attorney General’; In early March [1973] my old friend Clark Mollenhoff, of the Des Moines Register and Tribune, sent me a copy of a column he had written. He had been following the trial on the West Coast of William Wooldridge, an army sergeant major accused of skimming large sums of money from service clubs in Vietnam. Mollenhoff pointed out that after Wooldridge pleaded guilty, the presiding federal judge in that case .. . had delayed sentencing and had asked for a presentencing report on the cooperation the sergeant major had given to a Senate subcommittee in- delaying sentencing [of the convicted Watergate defendants] further and making the sentences conditional on some show of cooperation appealed to me. ... Nixon himself had issued an- other long explanation of the Water- gate case in mid-August [1973], but it added nothing to previous denials of any personal participation in the scandal. [Later], the President held his first press conference since the case had blown up in March. In an angry and bitter confrontation with the re- porters, the President accused Con- Sirica, Nixon and Mollenhoff vestigating the scandal. The idea of | gress and the press of exploiting Watergate as a way to embarrass him politically and frustrate the workings of his administration. My friend Clark Mollenhoff, who had worked briefly in the Nixon administration, asked the question that most interested me: “Where is the check on authoritarian- ism by the executive if the President is to be the sole judge of what the executive branch makes available and suppresses? And would you obey a Supreme Court order if you are asked and directed to produce the tapes?” Nixon, barely controlling his rage, answered that the only check was public opinion—backed, he implied, by the possibility of eventual im- peachment action by Cngress. . . . It appeared to me at the time that I not only had to decide the legal issues, but would also be faced later with a real test of the court’s power to enforce its decision. —John M.

Hazel, °77 The Joys of Civil War Relic Hunting Bearer of the bitterer memories of a war that occurred more than a century ago, the South often looks backward with fondness to an era that has —as Margaret Mitchell so eloquently stated in the title of her novel about the South, the Civil War, and a woman of particular spirit—Gone With the Wind. Students at Washington and Lee, a college linked with the South (Robert E. Lee was president of then Washington College from 1865 to 1970), cannot help becoming wrapped in the trapping of nostalgia and the gloss of romance which surround that time. Decaying plantation buildings, which spot much of the hilly countryside in the counties near the University, their empty verandas slowly falling apart under porticoes upheld by insecure wooden pillars—shrines to many—ironically give strength to the vitality of that time as they drift off into ruin. It should come as no surprise, therefore, that a graduate of Washington and Lee has written a book concerning the Civil War (or for those who are ardent Southerners, the War Between the States). What is of interest is the topic—Civil War relics. The Illustrated History of American Civil War Relics, by Michael J. O'Donnell (a 1972 graduate of W&L) and Stephen W. Sylvia, is an informative, comprehensive history, with captivating photographs and personal anecdotes, of relic hunting during and after the Civil War—a true delight. In addition to being a catalogue of Civil War memorabilia—one that has become a source of reference to collectors who have artifacts in need of a history—the book also is a scholarly attempt by the two authors to raise the respectability of all relic hunters, as well as their own, and to impart further evidence of the validity of the relic as a historical document, according to BSG SR SY LPT 0 11 Le cance oo a Reserpe ¢ i oP OS ta Reise: _ President Robert E.

PE Out goes gasoline, in comes togetherness Virginians might get along a little better together, might be better neighbors and better family types if future gasoline shortages cut down severely on the use of their cars. The layman might well think otherwise, but a Washington and Lee University sociologist and psychologist, asked about it by the Roanoke Times & World News, said Virginians and other Americans would adapt and live with the situation. They both cautioned that they were only speculating and that there are many qualifications attached to such behavior forecasting. There might be some panic at first if the current oil crunch in this country forces the government to restrict or ration gasoline sales, [assistant] sociology professor David Novack said, but “later, people are much more likely to think of innovative ways to deal with the situation. That’s the history of mankind.” “T find it very difficult to be pessimistic, ” said Nancy Margand, psychology [assistant] professor. There might be anger and panic at first, she said, but people would get over it... . SEE aN TT STE PSOE COE SD Oa O'Donnell. O’Donnell, 28, who was graduated from Washington and Lee with a degree in history, has been a relic hunter since a youngster. He remembers making scrapbooks of Civil War magazine articles and says he often walked and searched the hills surrounding Lexington and nearby counties while a student at W&L. Sylvia, who is 30, is a graduate of the University of Maryland with a degree in journalism. He is one of the founders and a former editor of North South Trader, a magazine for Civil War relic hunters. Kindred spirits, the two men met seven years ago while relic hunting on the Chancellorsville battlefield. They made many joint trips to battlefields and campsites before conceiving the idea for a book on relic hunting. Once the decision was made, they spent two and one half years, travelled some 50,000 miles, and gathered more than 10,000 photographs (of which 800 appear in the book) to put their dream on this side of the rainbow. During the project, they also formed Moss Publications, an Orange County- based publishing company (operating out of a Southern mansion, “somewhat on the decline of its former glory,” according to the two authors), through which they published their book—doing all of their own layout and paste-up—and through which they are currently publishing a supplement to Confederate Swords, written by William Albaugh II of Tappahannock. The two authors, who have become authorities on Civil War relics because of the research they have done for the book, stumbled upon two other Washington and Lee graduates with an interest in Civil War relics during their travels to museums, ‘and battlefields, and visits with other Civil War relic collectors. Michael J. O’Donnell and Stephen W. Sylvia Russ A. Pritchard (a 1962 graduate) is currently curator of the Loyal Legion Museum in Philadelphia, Pa. NRA EE AEST A SEH ST Te WB SDD TST eg 12 Dr. Nancy A. Margand If gasoline becomes severely short again, Novack said, people in the central cities will depend more on walking and the bus to seek entertainment and other services. And, he said, “If they are going to renew downtown Roanoke [as currently planned], this would be the best, thing that could happen.” It would be different in the distant suburbs without public transportation, he said, but suburbanites “may compensate Dr. David R. Novack very practically by having car pools.” The family, he said, might “become more critical as a recreational unit,” although he conceded that might not be easy at first. It was nice to play Monopoly as a family, he said, but “of course, we used to end up fighting all the time, too.” He said he suspects the videotape film cassettes for television would make millionaires of the men who make them. Teenagers who didn't have gasoline for cruising might be horrified at first, he said, but they might change their hang-out style from driving down Williamson Road to hanging out, in the old-fashioned way, on a street corner. It might be a street corner downtown, he said, “or hanging out might not mean a street corner. It might be someone's front porch’ in the suburbs. “T think that after a period of time, everybody would calm down.” Professor Margand said she believes the response to a severe shortage “would be more passive than aggressive.” She said she doesn't believe that families spending more time together would cause endless spats and ego bruising. —From an article, “Gas Shortage Could Bring People Together, 2 Experts Say,” by Ben Beagle, senior reporter for the Roanoke Times & World News and one of Virginia's most widely respected feature writers and news analysts. The article is excerpted with permission. Nancy Margand, whose fields of specialty include analysis of human behavior, has taught _ psychology at W&L since 1975, the year she received her Ph.D. from Virginia. David R. Novack, a scholar in the field of contemporary social problems and urban sociology whose recent research has focused on people’s “sense of community,” received his Ph.D. from New York University and has taught at W&L since 1976. RE ID IT SSO STE According to O'Donnell, Pritchard has the largest collection of Civil War documents in the world and was the founder of the first American relic club, the Northern Virginia Relic Hunters Association. Pritchard is a recognized leader in the field of relic hunting, he said. The two men also happened upon Beverly M. Dubose III, a 1962 graduate, who resides in Altanta and is the owner of one of the largest private collections of Civil War memorabilia. The two W&L alumni contributed their knowledge of Civil War collections, their familiarity with many other collectors, as well as their own collections, said O'Donnell. The book, of special interest to relic hunters, is also of interest to anyone who enjoys learning history through the stories of people who were there or who recall stories told to them by relatives who had experienced a war “that many Northerners and Southerners feared would be over before they had a chance to see battle,” according to O'Donnell and Sylvia. Many of the excerpts in the book were gleaned also from numerous diaries and histories—providing a fresh insight into those times and into relic hunting. For instance, from the book: James Beckham, an ex-Confederate soldier, wrote from Petersburg in 1896: “Now and then I found a dread messenger of death which the rains had unearthed and which I picked up and brought home as mementoes of ‘lang syne’.” Or, “A wounded Union cavalryman lay alongside the road pleading for water. Young Phenie Tapp—who witnessed the Battle of the Wilderness as a child and was interviewed by many relic collectors, historians and writers—thought he had ‘two mouths , for the water exited through a hole in his throat as quickly as he drank ib And, from a farmer near Chickamauga, who after finding several unexploded bombshells in 1863 reported: “Mother pried the top out of one with a table knife. That was pretty risky... .” The book has been reviewed in many publications that deal with Civil War subjects and a number of newspapers. A recent review in Man at Arms, read, “a tome that is informative, innovative and fun to read . . . methodically covers the entire spectrum of relic collecting, past and present, with a thoroughness that is awe inspiring . . . a welcome addition to any Civil War library.” With more than 1,000 copies of the book already sold since its publication four months ago, the two authors are confident the other 4,000 copies they have printed will sell. And then, the two plan to write a book on Civil War uniforms.
