Jarrard’s research requires about 60 specially bred albino rats,
whose behaviorial characteristics are automatically recorded for
analysis by computer. At right: Mrs. Maria Hunt, lab technician,
prepares section of hippocampal tissue for microscopic
examination. Slide-preparation process is so intricate that each
one takes two months’ work.

Surgery and other experimental manipulations, ot
course, require no less careful attention. Using mazes,
feeding and drinking stations with advanced automatic
measuring and recording equipment, and similar labora-
tory devices, activity is chronicled with minute preci-
sion. Behavior can then be analyzed for patterns of
frequency and sequence in 15-second time segments, us-
ing special computer programs which detect deviations
from “normal’’ activity, determined by subjecting ‘“‘con-
trol” rats in which the hippocampus has not been mani-
pulted to identical stimuli.

Jarrard is aided in his research by a full-time lab
technician and, this year, two Robert E. Lee Research
assistants, James TI. Becker and Curtis E. Boswell, both
juniors and psychology majors. Becker is aiding Jarrard
in his ongoing research into the specific behavioral
functions of different segments of the hippocampus.
Boswell and Jarrard are investigating the role of the
hippocampus in the ability to discern brightness and in
spatial discrimination.

One of the advantages Jarrard says he finds in con-
ducting research at a small, teaching-oriented institu-
tion such as Washington and Lee—for he teaches a full
load of courses—is precisely that opportunity to work
closely and individually with students.

ton Quintet’s virtuoso trumpeter wasn't
in town to play for Parents’ Weekend at
Washington and Lee.

For he’s not only head of the psy-
chology department and researcher of
national stature and prolific author and
consulting editor to a psychology jour-
nal; in his spare time, he’s an extra-
ordinarily talented trumpeter. He plays
regularly with a couple of groups, but
mostly with the Quintet — all of whose
members are executives and other pro-
fessional men, none a musician by
trade, who together are one of the most
popular and sought-after jazz groups in
the area.

One might expect somebody as pro-

fessionally have

active wouldn’t any
spare time. He teaches courses in first-
year psychology (“one of the most re-
warding experiences is to introduce stu-
dents to the field”), physiological psy-
chology (the underlying physical and
chemical bases of complex behavior), and
psychoactive drugs and behavior (es-
pecially in terms of personality).

He is a member of the editorial
board of The Journal of Comparative
and Physiological Psychology; he has two
dozen publications of his own to his cre-
dit — most recently a book he edited,
Cognitive Processes of Non-human Pri-
mates, and a major survey article for
Psychological Bulletin on the status of
research in America into the hippocam-
pus and motivation. Last spring he was
program chairman for the annual meet-
ing of the Midwestern Psychological As-
sociation, and he delivers research papers
regularly before that and other profes-
sional organizations. He’s a reviewer for
Science, for Psychology and Behavior,
and for Learning and Motivation.

He taught at Washington and Lee
for seven years before leaving in 1966—

knew he would return eventually (he

 

 

 

even kept his land on the Goshen road)
—to teach at Carnegie-Mellon University,
where he had received his M.S. and
Ph.D. degrees.

After two years at Carnegie Tech
he was named chairman of the graduate
program in psychology and directed a
number of master’s theses and doctoral
dissertations. He was the psychology de-
partment’s representative to the Carnegie
Tech faculty senate and a member of the
senate’s executive committee until he de-
cided to return to Washington and Lee
in 1971.

What persuaded him to return to
Washington and Lee, he says, is its
teaching orientation — which, as he him-
self demonstrates, hardly excludes re-
search. In fact, he observes, basic research

is an integral part of the teaching pro-
cess for students and professors alike. At
Carnegie Tech, he recalls, he missed the
day-to-day contact with undergraduates.

He succeeded Dr. William M. Hinton
as head of the W&L psychology depart:
ment. (Dr. Hinton had reached 65, the
age for mandatory retirement from ad-
ministrative duties; he continues to teach
full-time.) He brought back with him
the interest in the hippocampus he’d initi-
ally developed while at Washington and
Lee — and, to the relief of the Quintet
and its audiences, he brought back his
trumpet.

“For talent, Len is in a league with
Bobby Hackett [Glenn Miller's cornet-
ist], says Skip Houff, the Quintet’s
drummer (who has played professionally,
and now conducts a popular jazz and big-
band music program on WREL in Lex-
ington). “In delicacy of phrasing and tone
quality and precision and imagination
and thought, he’s as good as anybody
there is. If he ever wanted to leave teach-
ing he could play with any group in the
country. Everybody who’s ever worked
with him thinks he’s a great horn-player
and a great guy.”

Dear Fellow Alumni:

This report will cover the Alumni
Board meeting of Nov. 8, 1973, which
took place the day that the Sixth Special
Alumni Conference began. The confer-
ence is covered in a separate report in
this issue of the Alumni Magazine.

In addition to the members of the
Board of Directors, the Board
meeting was attended by Calvert Thomas,
"38A, chairman of the 1973-1974 Alumni
Fund drive. The session opened with a

Alumni

welcoming of the new Board members,
Al Darby, Chuck Stieff,
Branch. Tom ‘Touchton was absent be-

and ‘Tom

cause of illness.

Farris Hotchkiss, director of Univer-
sity Development, presented a summary
of the alumni attitude survey recently
conducted by Associates for Research in
Behavior, Inc., of Philadelphia. High-
lights included: 84% of alumni inter-
viewed would go to W&L if they had to
98%
Alumni Magazine and read or at least
glanced through it; 48% thought the
University was “extremely well off’; 25%

do it over again; received the

thought it was “fairly secure” and only
8% felt it is in financial trouble (It is
in better financial condition than many
private colleges, but the current and
capital needs are great); alumni give
to W&L because of loyalty, gratitude,
and appreciation (41%), or sense of
charity or obligation (22%) and a de-
sire to keep W&L operating (21%). The
executive summary and conclusions of
survey were published in the December
issue of the Alumni Magazine.

Douglas Schwartz, president of the
Student Body, joined the meeting later
in the afternoon. Doug outlined some
of the programs his Executive Com-
mittee has inaugurated to better coordi-
nate student activities on campus and

to foster a greater sense of “community”
in the student body. He also described
the orientation sessions on the Honor
System conducted for incoming freshmen
and, for the first time, for new law stu-
dents. Doug then fielded questions from
Board members on many phases of cur-
rent student interest.

Cal Thomas outlined his organiza-
tion and plans for the 1973-1974 Alumni
Fund campaign. The class agents met
in Lexington in September in an en-
thusiastic session, attended by Everett
Tucker, ’34, as representative of the
Alumni Board. Cal’s goals are realistic,
and, with the help of all of you, will be
attained and possibly exceeded.

Frank Parsons, assistant to President
Huntley, next gave a presentation on
the plans for physical facilities improve-
ments on campus. There will be student

 

apartments for approximately 170 stu-
dents constructed for occupancy in the
fall of 1974. Their location is on the side
of the ravine, downstream from the
footbridge. Frank also reported on pro-
gress of the law school building (close
to schedule) and plans for the new un-
dergraduate library. (The library plans
are in the detail drawing stage, but still
in need of more financial commitments.)
He stressed the need for repairs and im-
provements on the Front Campus, in-
cluding the four faculty homes all of
which are part of the development plan.

Everett Tucker reported for the Dis-
tinguished Alumnus Awards Committee.
The committee is to hold a _ special
meeting in Atlanta in February to
screen candidates.

Prof. Lewis H. (Lash) LaRue of the
Law School joined the meeting to dis-
cuss the work of the ad hoc faculty com-
mittee which is working on a policy re-
commendation regarding students who
may be convicted of felonies. The com-
mittee plans to present a tentative re-
port to the University for comment and
then a final report. Copies of the tenta-
tive report will be furnished to mem-
bers of the Alumni Board for their sanc-
tions. Lash outlined some of the prob-
lems which were of concern to the ad
hoc committee and Board members ex-
pressed their tentative reactions to some
of them. It was a most interesting and
useful discussion of a difficult prob-
lem.

The next regular Board
meeting is Friday, May 10, 1974, the
day before the annual meeting of Wash-

Alumni

ington and Lee Alumni, Inc. on Satur-
day, May ll.
Sincerely,
BILL HI vuieEr, ’38, President

Reflections on lunch

_..and other thoughts and impressions
about the 6th Special Alumni Conference

Tom Branch, an Atlanta, Ga., attorney, is a member
of the Alumni Board of Directors. Here he reports on
his experience as a delegate to the Sixth Annual Alumni
Conference in November. The conference, like those pre-
ceding it, was designed to give a small group of interest-
ed alumni an in-depth look at W&L’s current status,
challenges, and outlook for the future. The editors are
grateful to Tom Branch for this lively article.

To the best of my recollection, I knew no certified,
card-carrying vegetarians during my college and law
school years at Washington and Lee. Of course, peanut
butter and jelly sandwiches were the main source of pro-
tein at most fraternity house lunches, but by and large,
students in the generation of the 50s were given to the
enjoyment of meat and other products of our environ-
ment without much concern about the source of the
food. Therefore, I was somewhat surprised to learn
that the student seated next to me at lunch during the
Sixth Special Alumni Conference, Bryan Baldwin, was a
vegetarian. Bryan’s costume was of even greater interest
to me, consisting of a colorful full-length dress. Bryan
was, in fact, a girl, and one of the Hollins College stu-
dents participating in the student exchange program
with Washington and Lee and other colleges. During the
course of our conference, I learned from Bryan, the
other students, faculty and administration personnel in-
volved that the exchange program is only one of the
many recent changes at Washington and Lee, but that
on the whole, the University is more like than unlike the
University I knew from the fall of 1954 until the spring
of 1960.

Sixty-nine alumni, most with their wives, attended
the conference in Lexington from Nov. 8 through Nov.
10. The men varied widely in age, several having gra-
duated as recently as the spring of 1973, while others
would certainly qualify for membership in the “Old
Guard.” They came from all over the country and rep-
resented a wide variety of occupations and life styles. In
short, they were certainly representative of the total body
of alumni, and it was soon apparent that they were de-
termined to make themselves heard as well as to hear.

The conference representatives were divided into
four groups of approximately 20 men each, and many of
the wives attended conference meetings.

The conference dealt with four formal areas of in-
terest—curriculum, development, University governance,
and student life. Additionally, a session was set aside for
discussion with representatives of the student body in
the absence of any persons from either the faculty or the
administration.

I will not go into any detail concerning the facts
given us about the curriculum, the University’s develop-
ment program, governance, or the present format of
student government. Better sources of material on each
of these topics is available to you, and you have undoubt-
edly read a good bit about these matters in the Alumni

7

Special Conference Report

 

Magazine and other publications. I do think you might
be interested to know the impression we received from
the presentations made in these areas.

With regard to curriculum, it is certainly my impres-
sion that Washington and Lee is still basically a liberal
arts college. I suspect that the vast majority of its gradu-
ates are able to read and write, and that many of the
students have a desire to do both. I am not sure whether
the University has any active giants today, such a Ley-
burn, Gilliam and Gaines, but someone has been prick-
ing the intellectual curiosity of the students. Therefore,
while few trades are taught at Washington and Lee, I am
confident that today’s graduates are prepared, at least
as well as we were, to make their way in the world with
thinking minds equal to the many challenges they will
face.

Briefly, a word about the new three-term academic
year. Many of us went to the conference with the idea
that the six-week short term was probably a play period,
coming as it does in the spring of the year. We left the
conference fairly well convinced that at least as much
play does go on in the spring as it did when we were
students, happily, but that the short term format aids in

WA, isp Vie

 

making some formal education available at the same
time. Particularly, intensive study in the field is made
possible in the natural sciences, and the Commerce
School has found ways of giving its students brief,
though intensive, exposure to the world of business.

All of us were extremely interested in the Univer-
sity’s development program, and it was exciting to see
the visible evidence of its fruits. Every alumnus who
thrilled to a basketball game with the Wahoos in Dore-
mus Gymnasium will be appalled at the vastness of the
new basketball court. It would not surprise me greatly
if all of the old gym were smaller than the area of the
new basketball arena alone. This is not to say that it ri-
vals the palaces of the Atlantic Coast Conference, but
there will certainly be no need to ask spectators to press
aside in order that a contestant may throw the ball in
bounds unimpeded, as was the case in old Doremus.

Many of the alumni who attended the conference
had not seen Evans Dining Hall, though its construc-
tion had been completed by the beginning of my last
year in law school. This building, with its adjoining
student activities center, has added immeasurably to the
cohesiveness of student life. The Cockpit, the informal

unconcerned with the whole question. Their feeling
seemed to be that the sex of students at Washington
and Lee was of less importance than the other things
that have made the University great since its inception.

Lest the picture seem too rosy, there are problems in
student life today that are frightening to one of my
generation. Hard drugs—heroin, amphetamines and the
like—are not in evidence and do not seem to constitute
a problem of any magnitude at Washington and Lee.
However, marijuana is as easily obtainable, and as freely
used, as liquor was when I was a student. When I re-
member that I began my trips to the ABC store when I
was only 18, a full three years before the law even per-
mitted me in that building, it is difficult for me to
moralize about this particular problem.

Another problem of student life concerns me greatly,
and represents the most disappointing information I
picked up during the conference. As you know, the Uni-
versity was racially integrated some years ago, though it
was extremely difficult to interest outstanding young
black men in a traditional, Southern university in a
small, mountain community. It had been my hope that
the black students would be truly integrated into the

trusts establish

 

new professorship

 

S. Blount Mason, Jr.

 

More than $430,000 has been received by
Washington and Lee from trusts established by
S. Blount Mason, Jr., a prominent Baltimore
insurance executive who died in May, 1969, and his
wife, who died four months earlier.

Under terms of Mason’s will, the trust will
be used to strengthen faculty salaries at Washing-
ton and Lee. University officials said a professorship
in the name of S. Blount Mason, Jr., will be es-
tablished in recognition of the gift. The holder of
the chair will be appointed and announced later by
the Board of ‘Trustees.

After attending Washington and Lee from
1901 to 1903, Mason joined U.S. Fidelity and
Guaranty Co. of Baltimore and spent his entire
business career with that firm. He was named vice
president for workmen’s compensation and general
liability in 1923; he retired in 1949.

He was born in Richmond, a descendant of
George Mason, the author of Virginia’s Declaration
of Rights. His grandfather served as secretary of
the Navy, United States attorney general, ambassa-
dor to France and president of the 1850 Virginia
Constitutional Convention. His father, while a
cadet at Virginia Military Institute, fought at
New Market.

Sharing with Washington and Lee in the Mason
trusts are Woodberry Forest School, which he
also attended, and the Church and Home Hospital
in Baltimore.

An avid gardener during his lifetime, Mason was
also a member of several social and historical or-
ganizations, including the Virginia Branch of the
Society of the Cincinnati, the Sons of the American
Revolution, and the Maryland Club, of which he
was an officer for many years.

The Mason gifts bring to more than $5.5
million the amount contributed so far to endow-
ment for salaries, student financial aid, and other
yearly expenses as part of Washington and Lee’s
decade-long $56-million development program.
Funds for endowment will account for $24 million
of that total, half of it to be achieved by 1976.

Innovative program in religion
honors Philip F. Howerton

A major new memorial endowment
fund has been created to support a
series of innovative programs in the
University’s Department of Religion.

Aided by a gift of an additional
$100,000 from Mrs. Emmie M. Hower-
ton of Charlotte, N. C., the fund — now
valued at $150,000 — honors the memory
of Mrs. Howerton’s late husband, Philip
Fullerton Howerton, who died May 19,
1968. He was a former moderator of the
Presbyterian Church in the U.S. (South-
ern), a prominent insurance executive in
Charlotte, and a nationally known lec-
turer both in religion and in many or-
ganizations in the field of life insurance
in general.

The memorial endowment fund will
support a variety of programs at Wash-
ington and Lee designed to stimulate
an increased examination and_ under-
standing of the value of religious faith
in modern society and to reinforce the
University’s basic commitment to what
Robert E. Lee once spoke of as “the
very marrow of the Gospel,” according
to Mrs. Howerton.

The Howerton Endowment Program
is designed to respond to the require:
ments of each generation of students and
the availability of resources. The fund
will be used to sponsor distinguished lec-
tureships in the Department of Religion,
to bring scholars to the campus for ex-
tended periods during the academic year,
to support seminars involving both stu-
dents and religious leaders, to establish
and extend new programs in the study
of business and professional ethics in
fields such as medicine, insurance, jour-
nalism, broadcasting and law, and to
acquire important audio-visual teaching
materials.

Howerton was the son of a Presby-
terian minister, the Rev. James Robert

dowment fund in religion to honor the late Philip Fullertown Howerton were, from left,
Dr. and Mrs. John Newton Thomas; Philip F. Howerton, Jr.; Mrs. Philip F. Howerton,

Sr.; and North Carolina State Sen. Herman A. Moores, Jr. Howerton Jr. and Moores are
sons of Mrs. Howerton.

Howerton, who was professor of religion
and philosophy at Washington and Lee
and head of that department from 1907
until his death in 1924. The elder Hower-
ton was moderator of the Presbyterian
Church U.S. in 1907, and his son Philip
became moderator 50 years later. Philip
Howerton received an honorary doctor of
humanities degree from Southwestern at
Memphis in 1964.

Philip Howerton was born in Char-

lotte, but grew up in Lexington and was
educated (Class of 1925) at Washington
and Lee, where he was a close friend of
Dr. John Newton Thomas, who was one
class ahead of him. Dr. Thomas, professor
emeritus of systematic theology at Union
Theological Seminary in Richmond, be-
came a W&L Trustee in 1938 and re-
tired in January as rector of its board.
After returning to Charlotte, Philip

Howerton opened his own _ insurance

business in 1935. At the time of his death,
his agency was the 12th largest agency in
the nation affiliated with Connecticut
Mutual Life Insurance Co. He was a life
member of the life insurance industry’s
“Million Dollar Roundtable.”

The programs proposed to inaugu-
rate the Howerton Fund in the immedi-
ate future will supplement course offer-
ings in the Department of Religion and
other religious-oriented undertakings
both within the University’s formal cur-
riculum and outside it.

The professional ethics program will
encourage investigation of moral issues
involved in the fields of medicine, busi-
ness, insurance, advertising, journalism,
broadcasting, law and other fields. The
program will serve to extend an unusual
interdepartmental examination of bio-
medical ethics introduced for pre-medical
undergraduates in 1972.

Widely known scholars and clergy-
men will be invited to the campus both
for individual lectures and for periods
in residence. Films and tape cassettes,
useful to both the student and _ profes-
sor, will be acquired under the Howerton
Fund as well, to supplement texts and
class discussions with documentary
studies, unpublished addresses, lectures,
sermons, dialogues and panel discussions
by recognized religious leaders and schol-

ars from around the world.

 

New Text by Winfrey

 

John C. Winfrey, associate professor
of economics, is the author of a major
new text entitled Public Finance—Public
Choices and the Public Economy. It was
published in December by Harper &
Row.

In the book, Winfrey examines the
dilemmas of establishing governmental

14

 

priorities at several levels as well as ways

to finance them in practical terms of
current American politics and the bal-
ance between the electorate’s view of
social needs versus self-interest.

The book deals with a wide variety
of economic concepts and model sys-
tems and their operation under the fre-
quently conflicting pressures from the
voting public, the Congress, other gov-
ernmental bodies, various interest groups,
and other sources of influence.

Winfrey’s book includes specific ex-
aminations of a number of tax sources,
including the concept of a negative in-
come tax, levies on property and inheri-
tances, social security taxes, general sales
taxes, excise, and corporate taxes.

Of the current notion to replace the
sales tax with a European-style “valued
added Winfrey writes: “In the
United States at least it would seem

tax,

more sensible to increase the use of the
general sales tax” than to replace it if tax
increases on goods are necessary.

Winfrey’s book also examines “public
choices of the 1970's,” focusing particu-
larly on the problems of urban blight,
mass transit, and the reorganization and
consolidation of city governments.

Winfrey has been teaching economics
at W&L since receiving his Ph. D. from
Duke University in 1965. He _ teaches
courses in public finance and related
fields.

Davis Biography Available

 

A definitive new biography of John
W. Davis — from which pre-publication
excerpts were printed in the Alumni
Magazine in April, coinciding with the
100th anniversary of Davis’ birth — has
just been published by Oxford Univer-
sity Press.

The book is Lawyer’s Lawyer: The
Life of John W. Davis, and is by Wil-
liam H. Harbaugh, professor of his-
tory at the University of Virginia and
biographer also of Theodore Roosevelt.
The book notes in detail the substantial
influence Washington and Lee had on
Davis when he was a student (Class of
1895 A&L) as well as the influence he
had on the University as a graduate
until his death in 1955 and particularly
as a member of the Board of Trustees
(1921-1948).

Copies of the book, which ordinar-
ily retails at $15.00, may be ordered from
the W&L Bookstore for $13.50 plus pos-
tage, under the 10 per cent discount rate
extended to every alumnus.

 

A Fraternity Resurgence

 

Slightly more than two-thirds of
Washington and Lee’s freshmen pledged
a fraternity in fall rush, according to
Statistics compiled by the Interfraternity
Council. The 67 per cent pledge rate is

the highest since 1969.
January, 1974

Leading in numbers of pledges was
Sigma Chi (33 men), as it has in recent
years. Pi Kappa Phi had 26, and Phi
Kappa Psi 23.

Other houses and their pledge totals
are:

Phi Gamma Delta, 19; Sigma Alpha
Epsilon, Phi Kappa Sigma, Lambda Chi
Alpha and Phi Delta Theta, all 16; Sigma
Nu, 15; Pi Kappa Alpha and Delta Tau
Delta, 13; Psi Upsilon and Sigma Phi
Epsilon, 11; Zeta Beta Tau, 10, and
Beta Theta Pi, nine.

Pledging rates have increased gradu-
ally each year since 1970, when just 58
per cent of the freshman class pledged.
‘The next year the rate was 61 per cent,
and in 1972, 65 per cent.

Rush was marked by the return of
Sigma Phi Epsilon to full fraternity
status after two years of semi-inactivity,
the result of numerical problems. Its
pledge class of 11 is taken by the frater-
nity as a signal of a successful recovery.

In the fraternity decline of 1969 and

ATO/DU house will become shelter home for children.

1970, three fraternities were disbanded
at Washington and Lee, Kappa Alpha,
Kappa Sigma, and Delta Upsilon. Fif-
teen national fraternities remain active
on campus.

 

New Use for DU House

There will be young feet running
through the old Alpha Tau Omega/
Delta Upsilon fraternity house in Lex-

 

ington again, but they won’t belong to
college students.

The building has been purchased by
the congregation of the Lexington Pres-
byterian Church and will be used as a
group shelter home for children who
are awaiting assignment to foster par-
ents.

The church purchased the house
from the W&L Chapter of D.U., Inc.,
in the spring of 1973. Work on reno-
vating the structure has been under way
for several months, and a target date of
March has been established for accepting

the opportunity beginning this spring of
going to the College of Chinese Culture
in Taiwan with Prof. I-Hsiung Ju, who
was born in China and studied and paint-
ed there until the Communist takeover
— or of taking a tour of Mediterranean
sites important in classical history with
Prof. Mario Pellicciaro, who teaches the
art and literature of ancient Greece and
Rome.

With the group going to the Far East,
W&L students will have the option of
taking six credits in art history or studio
art, Or six in spoken Mandarin, or an
art-language combination. (Iwo years of
spoken Mandarin are already taught at
Washington and Lee.) In a similar man-
ner, students on the Greek-Roman tour
may take six credits in art or six in
Classics, or three in each.

A third new study-abroad program
under the art department is scheduled

for Mexico in Spring of 1975 under Prof.
Gerard M. Doyon, who teaches art and
art history. This program will be es-
pecially interesting to studio-oriented art
students and second-year Spanish  stu-
dents, for it provides six weeks at the
world-renowned art school and college of
Spanish in San Miguel de Allende, 150
miles north of Mexico City — plus a
few days in Mexico City itself, together
with tours to ancient sites of pre-Colum-
bian cultures.

Under other study-abroad programs in
the six-week Spring Term, Washington
and Lee students can study a wide var-
iety of subjects — including art — in
England, France, Germany, Spain, Africa
and elsewhere. There is also a Spring
Term internship program under which
W&L art majors work as curators of
major museums in Virginia and North
Carolina.

Pellicciaro—to the Mediterranean.

So it is hardly difficult to see the
day when Washington and Lee art stu-
dents may find themselves in Beirut,
Bombay, even Moscow and Peking —
anywhere, in fact, there is art.

Article by Riegel

 

The new issue of Film Critic, the
quarterly of the American Federation
of Film Societies, carries an article of
criticism by O. W. Riegel, professor
emeritus of journalism at Washington
and Lee University.

The article, “Karlovy Vary: The Per-
sistence of (Re) Vision,” offers Riegel’s
commentary on the biennial film festival
held in Karlovy Vary (Carlsbad) in Cze-
choslovakia. Riegel discusses more than
two dozen films, many entered by com-
munist nations including North Korea,
North Vietnam, Cuba, and Soviet Rus-
Sia.

Up the tub

 

Who do you call when you can’t get your
bathtub up on the roof? The fire depart-
ment, naturally. Actually, Washington and
Lee’s problem was a huge fishtank, design-
ed to provide a natural environment for the
flounder used by biology professor Cleve-
land P. Hickman, Jr., in his research into
the function of the kidney. Flounder are
perfectly suited to his work, since their
kidneys can function in a wide variety of
situations—equally well in salt water and
in fresh, for instance. Their old home was
a modest old plastic pool, and the fish were
. well, floundering in it. So a new, more
suitable habitat had to be brought in—but
not through the doors. A cooperative fire
department provided the unusual delivery
service to Dr. Hickman’s fourth-floor re-
search lab.

The cross-country team had to over-
come a severe handicap, since last year’s
No. 1 runner and course record-holder,
co-captain Stu Nibley, was prevented by
injury from competing at all. But senior
co-captain Bill Kalal and others took
up the slack and led W&L to an over-
all winning record. During the year, vic-
tories were recorded over Davidson,
Lynchburg and Davis & Elkins, and the
Generals placed. fourth among eight
teams in the state meet. |

Along with Kalal, the W&L runners
