ALUMNI FUND REPORT
The space devoted in this issue to
the Report of the 1951 Alumni Fund
has been paid for by the Fund Office.
This enables the G a r n e t L e t t e r to
remain within its budget, and at the
same time saves the college the costs

Report.

BALTIMORE CLUB SALE
The metal tray and waste basket
set with the picture of Parrish Hall
on it is still being offered for sale by
the Swarthmore Club of Baltimore.
They make an attractive set for a den
or library or they can be obtained as
single items alone.
The charge is $4.00 each pp. or
$8.00 a set pp. Checks for each pur
chase should be made payable to the
Swarthmore Club of Baltimore and
the checks may be sent to Mrs.
Richard Post, 308 Broxton Road,

The sets will make handsome
Christmas gifts to some alumni
friends.

The 1950-51 ^William J. Cooper Foundation lectures, “ National Security and
Civil Liberties, has recently been published by the University of Pennsylvania
Press under the title, Civil Liberties Under Attack.
Lecturers for the series included Henry Steele Commager, Professor of History
at Columbia University; Robert K. Carr, Professor of Law and Political Science
at Dartmouth College; Zechariah Chafee, Jr., Professor at Harvard University;
Walter Gellhorn, Professor of Law at Columbia University; Curtis Bok, President
Judge of the Court of Common Pleas, Philadelphia; and James P. Baxter, III,
President of Williams College.
Swarthmore’s own Professor Clair Wilcox edited and wrote a foreword for
the volume which is a record of one of the most timely of the Cooper lectures.

WOMEN’S FELLOWSHIP REQUIREMENTS CHANGED
For the information of all interested alumnae the terms of the Lucretia Mott
and Martha E.^ Tyson Fellowships have been modified to take cognizance of
changing conditions on campus.
The major change in the Lucretia Mott Fellowship is that a thesis is no
longer required of each applicant. A seminar paper or a term paper will now
fulfill that requirement.
The Martha E. Tyson Fellowship is now open to undergraduates who plan to
teach on the elementary or secondary levels, as well as to those women who are
already experienced teachers. Details may be obtained from the Dean of Women,
Swarthmore College.

UNIVERSITY WOMEN GIVE 25 FELLOWSHIPS
The American Association of University Women announces 25 fellowships to
young women who have completed two years’ residence work for the Ph.D.
degree or have already received the degree. Awards include money for study
abroad, research or writing. Write Secretary, Committee on Fellowship Awards

alumni and the enthusiastic support
of the new alumni added to the ranks
that helps make this program an un

cooperation that makes Swarthmore
what it is, the kind of a college we
are happy to support, so that it will
continue to be at the forefront of

not function during the year, although
fund solicitation by the college ad

The Garnet Letter

INTRODUCING THE CLASS OF 7955
A new class of 245 Freshmen is
now getting settled on the campus as
the Swarthmore Class of 1955.
Altogether,
than
o
j there were . more
,
_.
1100 applications for admission to this
year’s class. The sharp decline in en
rollments, particularly o f men which
was anticipated as a result of the
Korean situation did not materialize
at Swarthmore. College enrollments
have dropped only about 9 % gener
ally, but there was no drop whatever
in the number of men seeking admis
sion to Swarthmore.
College enrollments have dropped
only about 5 % in colleges generally,
and there was no drop whatever in
the number of men seeking admission
to Swarthmore.
Selection of this year’s freshmen
was even a more difficult and trying
task than usual because, for the first
time, prospective students were not
required to indicate to the College
Entrance Examination Board their
preference as to colleges. Thus it was
impossible for the admissions com
mittee to distinguish between the ap
plications of those whose first prefer
ence was Swarthmore and of those
who were filing “ insurance” applica
tions as protection in case of rejection
by the school , of their first choice.
There is a growing practice among
prospective students to make multiple
applications so that a higher percent
age of acceptances of applications is
necessary before the freshman class is
filled.

Alumni Children Preferred
The Class o f 1955 consists of 115
women and 130 men. O f these, there
are 17 sons and daughters of Alumni,
and 18 members of the Society of
Friends. It is the college’s policy to
give preference to applicants from
both of these groups who meet the
requirements and as a matter of fact
22 children of Alumni were actually
accepted by the Admissions Com
mittee for this year’ s class. However,
9 of these, after filing applications and
being notified of their acceptance, ad
vised the college that they planned to
enroll elsewhere.
A total of 55% o f the new freshmen
come from public schools in the U. S.
41% come from private schools, and
4% are foreign students. About one
in every four freshmen will receive

scholarship aid of one kind or
another— all of it going to outstand
ing and desirable students who could
not attend Swarthmore without such
financial aid.

Jerry Goodman, from the town of
Swarthmore, is the ’celloist. Jerry
played first ’celloist in the Pennsyl
vania All-State Orchestra,' won the
Music League competition, and dur
ing the past summer was a member of
a string quartet which included Pierre
Monteux, nationally known conduc
tor. Tim Coss, of Washington, D. C.,
was National Indoor Boys’ Double
Champion and is ranked number two
outdoors. During the summer Tim
played in scholastic and junior tour
naments in the East and Middlewest.
Freshman Clinton Fink, Lakewood,
Ohio, is the first Scott Lilly scholar.
This scholarship, endowed by Jacob
T. Schless T4, is in honor o f the for
mer distinguished Professor of Engi
neering.

Foreign Students
Swarthmore continues to maintain
its cosmopolitan atmosphere with the
usual contingent of foreign students.
There are students from such distant
places as Jordan, Germany, Nigeria,
Japan, France, Israel and Yugoslavia.
The Swarthmore Student Service
Fund made it possible for Gleb Demjanenko, a native of Yugoslavia, to
enter Swarthmore. Gleb was a forced
laborer in Germany at the age of 14
but he escaped to the U. S. occupied
zone of Germany shortly before VE
Day where he has since completed his
education. He plans to study chem
istry.
From Japan, under the sponsorship
of the Institute of International Edu
cation, a government sponsored proj
ect for the re-education of Japanese
students, comes Shozo Kadota. Shozo
was educated in American language
schools in Japan and worked for the
G H Q , Far Eastern Command in
Tokyo.
From the same Friends school in
Jordan which produced Ali A1 Yasir,
Swarthmore soccer star of the Class
of 1951, come Farouk Barakat and
Constantine Ingleksis.
First Swarthmore student from the
new country of Israel is David Hattis.
David’s father is a graduate of North
western University and a certified
public accountant in Haifa.

Football on the Rebound
With fourteen lettermen and •a
number o f experienced non-lettermen
returning, Coach Lew Elverson hopes
for a better than average season this
fall. These men will provide the
depth-in-position that was perhaps
the outstanding reason for last sea
son’s poor showing. In several games,
Swarthmore scored first, led at half
time, only to lose because exhausted
and unrelieved men could not stem
the tide.
The Garnet will use a single wing
system exclusively this season. Last
year the team used the “ T ” and the
single-wing, but the material this
year seems to indicate that the exclu
sive use o f the latter will be more,
successful.
Captain o f this year’s team and
mainstay of the line is Bob Asplundh
of Bryn Athyn, son o f Les Asplundh
’ 23. Bob is a senior. Bob Howell,
son of Charles “ Cap” Howell T9, is
also a member o f this year’s squad.
H e is a junior, a letterman and
another bulwark in the line. Among
the freshman out for the football team
are the sons o f Paul M . James ’ 29
and Mary Wilson Milam T7. Paul
James, Jr., was a standout athlete and
student at Friends Central and John
Milam was a varsity lineman for three
years at Millbrook. He also won
letters in baseball and track. Other
freshmen prospects include Scott
Cooper from North Park Academy in
Chicago where he was 1950 AllConference center (2nd team) and
Henry Bode, Jr., open scholar from
St. George’s School in Rhode Island.

Soccer Prospects
The 1951 soccer team faces two
problems in replacing offensive spark
plug, Ali A1 Yasir, who was graduated,
and defensive ace, All-American goalie
Roger Pott, who departed to the military service. Coach Bob Dunn has
eight lettermen and six ex-JV hooters
with whom he hopes to replace these
two outstanding players.
Sons o f alumni are among those
expected once more to give standout
performances. Steve Clark, captain
and halfback (son of Allen G. Clark
’ 22 and Cornelia Coy Clark ’ 23), Art
Lewis (son o f Anne Gault Lewis ’ 22)
and George Place (son of G. W. Place
’ 21) are all seniors with much soccer
experience. Place may well step into
Ali A1 Yasir’s role o f offensive playmaker. Among the candidates for the
important spot o f goalie is another
son of an alumnus, Orville Wright,
Jr., son of Orville Wright ’ 30.
Freshmen talent for the soccer team
includes Frank Martin from Haverford School, who was an outstanding
Interac player; James White, AllIllinois State selection, and Harold
Kipp, Shadyside Prep, Pittsburgh,
All-Interstate prep school star.

Cross Country
Cross-country this fall also has its
problems. Gone are some of the
veterans from last season although
Captain Avery Harrington, a consis
tent point winner, and three other
lettermen will be back to bolster the
team.

Hockey
The most promising o f all the fall
sports is women’s hockey. Virtually
all the team that compiled a record
last year of 3 wins, 2 ties and 2 losses
is back, including All-College centerhalf, Cornelia' Wheeler. The team
faces a seven-game schedule.
Letter winners from last year who
are returning and who are daughters
of alumni are Sue Slaugh (daughter
o f Frances Wills ’ 21) and Sally Rich
ards (daughter of Peirce L. Richards
’ 27 and Lily Tily Richards ’ 29). Dagmar Strandberg (daughter of Anna
Sjostrom Strandberg ’ 25) is also a
member o f the team.
One o f the freshmen candidates
for a position is Esther Mallonee,
daughter of Esther Felter Mallonee
’ 28.

FA C U LT Y ON LEAVE
It has been said that a college is as
strong as its faculty. If the demand
from outside agencies to secure
Swarthmore professors and the grant
ing of fellowships is any indication of
strength then our faculty is good.
The college has a well-established
policy of sabbatical leaves. It believes
strongly that vital teaching depends
upon the growth of its teachers.
Naturally any institution is proud
when members o f its staff are invited
by industries, government agencies, or
foundations to conduct or contribute
to important research. The college
has cooperated in such requests since
in the long run the students in the
classroom will themselves benefit from
the experiences of the professors
through enriched teaching.
During this academic year one will
find members of the faculty in dis
tant and sometimes remote places
throughout the world.

Jenkins in Korea
One o f these is Howard Jenkins ’ 20,
chairman of the department of Elec
trical Engineering. His work during
the year will take him to various air
bases in this country, to Tokyo and to
Korea. He is part of “ Operation
Analysis,” a civilian group of scientists
doing non-laboratory planning re
search.
Also on that side of the world is
Willis Weatherford o f the Economics
department. In conjunction with the
Point Four economic aid program of
the State Department, Mr. Weather
ford is directing a project of the
American Friends Service Committee,
locating and setting them up “ tech
nical assistance units” in India. This
work takes a number of different
forms. It may mean moving villages
out o f areas to be flooded by irriga
tion projects and setting up elsewhere.
Demonstration o f better methods of
agriculture, o f storing and handling
food are also part o f his work. Prob
lems in public health are dealt with
and small scale industries may be
started.
Originally Mr. Weatherford’s leave
was only for last spring, but an exten
sion for the fall semester has been
granted. This will permit him to
work in Pakistan in addition to India,
and to stop in southern Italy on the
return trip this winter.

Garrett Works for Army
Negotiations are well under way
with the Office o f Ordnance R e
search, U. S. Army, to finance a proj
ect suggested by Prof. Milan W.
Garrett of the Physics department
who will be on leave this year. He
plans to continue and to extend some
recent theoretical research of his,
leading to new and better designs of
coils for producing and measuring
magnetic fields. This is the result of
considerable refinement of what was
previously known and thought pos
sible in this phase of physics. Such
coils have a number of important
applications in present-day experi
mental research, particularly nuclear
research, in degaussing of ships, and
in the construction of precise instru
ments for measuring magnetic fields.
Prof. Garrett’s work at the moment
is confined to theory and design.

Moore to Travel
The Edward W. Hazen Foundation
in New Haven has asked Registrar
John M. Moore to make a study of
typical programs of general education
in schools in various sections of the
country. General education is the
attempt to break down the sharp lines
o f division between areas of knowl
edge known in the colleges and uni
versities as departments, say, of his
tory or psychology. Moore will try to
find out especially what kind and how

FORD FOUNDATION GRANTS
Grants from the Ford Founda
tion Fund for the Advancement
of Education have been awarded
to two Swarthmore teachers.
They are James A. Field, Jr., as
sistant professor of history and
Erna F. Schneider, instructor in
philosophy. Prof. Field will use
his grant to work on a book on
Anglo-American relations. Miss
Schneider, who is interested in
the philosophy of science, will
study on the campus with her
grant. She will do advanced work
with the physics and mathematics
departments.
Only Swarthmore — o f all the
colleges in the Philadelphia area
— was fortunate enough to have
two members of its faculty
awarded Ford grants.

much emphasis is put upon the teach
ing of religious ideas and values.
Professor Wolfgang Köhler of the
Psychology department will use his
leave to continue work on a research
project carried on with the facilities
and his colleagues at the University of
Chicago. With a grant from the Com
monwealth Fund he will conduct psy
chological and physiological experi
mentation trying to find out how the
brain operates. Prof. Köhler feels
that the present theory of brain action
by which electrical impulses are car
ried through the nerves is inadequate.
His work will attempt to formulate
an alternate theory to the one at
present generally accepted.

Honorary Degree to Kohler
Incidentally, Prof. Köhler was one
of three outstanding scientists in the
country who were awarded honorary
degrees of Doctor of Science at the
June convocation of the University
of Chicago.
Working on a part-time basis has
enabled Professor Clair Wilcox o f the
economics department to serve as a
member of President Truman’s fiveman Materials Policy Commission in
Washington. This commission has
made a study of the problem of the
supply in basic raw materials for the
next 25 years. Professor Wilcox’s own
work had to do with the prospects of
the supply of iron and steel in the free
world.
Other leaves have been granted to
Professor Reuning of the German de
partment who will continue his work
in semantic studies, and to Professor
Wallach, of the Psychology depart
ment, who will teach and conduct the
experimental psychology laboratory at
the New School for Social Research
in New York City.
Professor Edward' A. Cox, chair
man of the department of chemistry,
will be on leave the second semester
on a Fulbright Fellowship. He will be
attached to the faculty o f science at
the University of Monpelier, France.
Tw o professors have been granted
extensions of their present leaves.
One is Frederick B. Tolies, librarian
of the Friends Historical Library and
association professor of history, who
has a three-year extension which he
will spend on the research staff of the
Huntington Library in California.
The other is Dr. Neal Weber of the
department of Zoology. Dr. Weber

IN TRIBUTE TO CHARLES FRANCIS JENKINS 1865-1951
The following brief memorial to Swarth
more’s Charles Francis Jenkins was written
for the G a r n e t L e t t e r by Richmond
P. Miller, alumnus o f the Class. of 1924.
Miller is Field Secretary of the Phila
delphia Yearly M eeting of Friends. He
also was the author of the article on
Charles Francis Jenkins which appeared in
the Friends Intelligencer July 14, 1951.
*

*

In 1944 he was named by the Gover
nor as chairman of the William Penn
Tercentenary Committee which made
Penn’s anniversary one of the great
occasions in the history of the Com
monwealth. At his death he was the
president of the Historical Society of
Pennsylvania.
Swarthmore College was always
high among the multitudinous inter
ests of his versatile life. T o the Col
lege he gave the Howard M . Jenkins
professorship of Quaker History and
Research, in memory of his father.
Swarthmore, Haverford and Pennsyl
vania all honored themselves by con
ferring academic honors upon him.

*

The death of Charles Francis Jen
kins on Seventh month 2nd, 1951, at
the age of eighty-five brought to a
conclusion a distinguished period of
forty-seven years as a member of the
Board of Managers. Only one other
member o f the Board of Managers of
Swarthmore College gave a longer
term of service to the College. (Isaac
Hallowell Clothier was a Manager
from 1873 until his death in 1921.)
As a relatively young Friend,'Charles
Francis Jenkins was elected a Man
ager in 1904, became Vice-president
in 1920, and President in 1933. When
he retired in 1944 as Chairman o f the
Board and President of the Corpora
tion he became an Emeritus Manager
so that for well over half of his life
time he gave generously o f his
energy, wisdom, and resources to
Swarthmore College.
For thirty-eight o f his forty years
as an active Board member he was
chairman o f the Trusts Committee.
His fellow members on his resignation
recorded their consensus that “ much
of the success of the investment pro
gram of the College has been due first
to' his judgment and experience and
second to his unswerving devotion to
the details connected with the opera
tion of the committee.”

culture and a charming personality
with strongly guarded Friendly prin
ciples, a person o f extraordinary ver
satility, o f literary, historical and
scientific interests, a public benefactor
and a warm, private friend.”
Shortly after it was founded by his
uncle, Wilmer Atkinson, he became
associated with the Farm Journal. As
editor, publisher, and chairman of the
board, he guided it into the largest
farm magazine circulation in the
world. That was his vocation in life.
But by no means was it his only call
ing, for everything to which he turned
his mind and heart and energy be
came a dominating interest and con
cern for him and all those about him.

Nason Pays Tribute

Intelligencer Board Member

At the memorial Meeting for W or
ship held for him at his home and
hemlock arboretum “ Far Country” in
Germantown, Philadelphia, President
John W. Nason was among those who
spoke in tribute to him. “ Business
man, horticulturist, historian, biog
rapher, poet, Charles Francis Jenkins
was a man of many interests and great
breadth of culture. Deeply concerned
with education and devoted to
Swarthmore College, he was himself
a proof of the fact that one need not
go to college to be* highly educated.
Those who had the privilege o f know
ing him will always cherish the mem
ory of a man who combined an urbane

For forty years he was one of the
most active members of the board of
managers o f the Friends Intelligencer
and its treasurer. For forty-two years
he was Clerk of Green Street Monthly
Meeting of the Religious Society of
Friends. For forty-seven years he was
the President o f the Buck Hill Falls
corporation and the beloved patriarch
of the whole community. When the
American Friends Service Committee
was founded he was its first treasurer
and served for thirteen years. He
helped to found the Ozone golf club
and the Friends Social Union which
did so much to bring all Friends in
Philadelphia closer to organic union.

Penn Gives Degree

Charles F. Jenkins

When he was presented for the
honorary degree of doctor o f laws at
the University of Pennsylvania his
citation read: “ In your busy life as
publisher and director of important
enterprises of trust, you have found
time to serve as faithfully the interest
of educational and charitable institu
tions, often as an officer. As an
author, your writings have been well
received, both by the public and by
the historians, who seek but the truth.
A member o f the Society o f Friends,
the Inner Light has illumined your
life. Trust is your reward, wisdom
your companion, and the truth your
heart’s desire.”
Last year Maria Cope Jenkins and
Charles Francis Jenkins commemo
rated the 60th anniversary o f their
marriage together. Their surviving
children are Algernon Sidney Jenkins,
Isabel Jenkins Booth T6, and Edward
Cope Jenkins ’ 27. Four brothers and
sisters survive: Anna Jenkins Webster
’87, Edward Atkinson Jenkins ’92,
Arthur Hugh Jenkins ’01, and Flor
ence Jenkins.
There are twelve
grandchildren and eleven great-grand
children.
This life merits a full-length biog
raphy and some day it will be written.
Swarthmore has lost another of its
loyal friends and servants. “ A good
life hath its number of days: but a
good name endureth forever. . . . Let
us now praise famous men. . . . The
Lord hath wrought in them great
glory.”
Richmond P. Miller ’ 24

DANIEL UNDERHILL DIES
the members of the Underhill family.
Tw o were members of the Committee
which solicited subscriptions for the
founding of the college. Six, includ
ing Daniel Underhill, have been
members of the Board of Managers.
The death of such a tolerant, wise
and kindly man is a loss not only to
the college but to the world at large.
It provides the occasion for express
ing the deep appreciation owed by
the college to him and to a family so
prominent in its history.

SW AIN MEMORIAL BOOK
NOW IN COLLEGE LIBRARY

Daniel Underhill
The death of Daniel Underhill on
July 1st at his home in Jericho, New
York, inevitably saddens those who
knew him. Daniel Underhill was a
graduate of the college in the class of
1894, and a former member o f the
Board of Managers. By profession a
lawyer and banker, he was a partner
in the law firm of Underhill and
Foster. He served for years as presi
dent, and at the time of his death,
was chairman of the Bank of Hicksville in Long Island. He was also
associated in various capacities with
a number of other banks.
Mr. Underhill was an active mem
ber of the Society of Friends, and
secretary of the Jericho Meeting. An
active alumnus of Swarthmore Col
lege, he served as a Member o f the
Board from 1899 to 1909 and from
1912 until 1939. A letter from his
wife, Bertha Underhill, states that
next to his home, he loved Swarth
more best. T o this end he gave a
scholarship, - awarded annually, in
memory o f his grandfather, a member
of the first Board of Managers.
His classmates will remember him
as President of the senior class during
the first semester and as commence
ment speaker. He held membership
in Delta Epsilon fraternity, the Del
phic Literary Society and the M an
dolin Club. He was an enthusiastic
mountain climber and a member of
various Alpine clubs.

October, 1951

When Joseph Swain retired from
the presidency of Swarthmore College
thirty years ago, he was presented
with a volume of reminiscent and
laudatory letters. The idea for the
volume came from his fellow admin
istrator and warm admirer, Dean
William Alexander. The book has
been recently acquired by the college
library.
The letters are in a beautiful mo
rocco binding which bears in gold
lettering the legend: “ O f what should
a man be proud if not of his friends.”
Among them are many from college
and university presidents of an earlier
era: to pick a random half-dozen,
Aley of Maine, Bryan of Indiana,
Coffman of Minnesota, Jessup of
Iowa, Thompson of Ohio State and
Wilbur of Leland Stanford. There are
many from a bygone generation of
Swarthmore teachers including: Wil
liam Hyde Appleton, G. F. Blessing,
Elizabeth
Powell Bond,
Isabelle
Bronk, R. C. Brooks, Harold Goddard,
George A. Hoadley, Jesse H. Holmes,
William I. Hull, Henrietta Josephine
Meeteer, John A. Miller, Paul M.
Pearson and Spencer Trotter. From
distinguished alumni there are, as ex
amples, letters of Bird T. Baldwin,
Morris L. Clothier, Howard Cooper
Johnson, Governor William B. Sproul
and Henry Turner.
Joseph Swain became president of
Swarthmore in 1902 and served until
1921. He died, six years after retire
ment, one month short of his seven
tieth birthday.
The letters comprise a varied and
fascinating revelation of the accom
plishments and personality of an early
outstanding builder of the Swarth
more of today.

SWARTHMORE AND
SCIENCE
If you ever find yourself in the
midst of a big college vs. small college
discussion sometime, here are some
-handy statistics for the battle.
A recent study by two Wesleyan
professors, H. B. Goodrich and R. H.
Knapp, published in both Scientific
American and Science, indicates that
small liberal arts colleges produce
more of the nation’s scientists than
the large universities and that Swarth
more College is on the list of those
which are most productive. Based on a
study of classes graduating in the
decade between 1924-34, 30 of every
1000 of our men graduates have
earned their Ph.D.’s in science and are
listed in the American M en of Science.
Another interesting fact brought
out by the survey is the dominant
position of Middle Western and West
ern schools. Only eight institutions in
the New England and Middle At
lantic states were listed among the
first fifty in the country. These are
Massachusetts
State,
Haverford,
Clark, Johns Hopkins, Wesleyan,
Swarthmore, Rochester, and Lebanon
Valley.
Knapp and Goodrich felt their
findings showed “ the very large and
rather unexpected contributions made
By small liberal arts colleges to the
training of American scientists.” They
concluded, “ The future of the scien
tific profession would be affected by
any policy that neglected their well
being.”

Faculty on Leave
Continued from page 5
will continue his work in establishing
a zoology department at the Univer
sity of Iraq in Baghdad.
Leaves have been granted to four
other professors who plan to write
books. Frederic Klees (second semes
ter leave), plans a novel with Penn
sylvania Dutch background for M ac
Millan. Prof. Roland Pennock (first
semester), will collaborate with Prof.
Cook of Johns Hopkins on a textbook,
Introduction to Political Science. Dr.
Solomon Asch (second semester),
plans a psychology textbook to be
published next year by Prentice Hall.
Prof. Theodore von Laue o f the his
tory department, with a senior fellow
ship at the, Institute of Russian
Studies at Columbia University, is
writing a study of Count Witte.

NEW TERM BRINGS CAMPUS CHANGES
The start pf the new college year
finds a number of additions and im
provements to the grounds and build
ings at college — although from
outward appearances the beautiful
campus may seem unchanged.
Deep underground there is a new
$12,000 high-pressure water main
which gives the entire college added
fire protection. It runs from Chester
Road, near the entrance to the library
road, up across the campus to the
east end of Parrish, then turns and
runs past Beardsley Hall, terminating
at Whittier drive near the baseball
field. Most o f last college year the
campus was scarred by the trench dug
for the line, but this has now dis
appeared.
In Parrish Hall, where hundreds of
co-eds have trod bare wooden and
cork-covered floors, the corridors now
have a new look. Some 12,000 square
feet o f new, attractive brown and tan
asphalt tile has been laid over the
dormitory hallways. Walking through
them is now a quiet, pleasant experi
ence, and all the baths and North
W ing have received the same treat
ment.
Parrish, too, has been equipped
with a new and modern fire alarm
system.

Women’s Pool Closed
The women’s swimming pool in the
Somerville
gymnasium has been
closed, although its 75,000 gallons of
water are being retained as a reservoir
for fire protection.
T w o injuries sustained by women
divers last year led to a thorough
study o f the women’s pool by Red
Cross experts at the request of the
Board of Managers. It was decided
the pool facilities were not as ade
quate as was desirable, even though
it has been used for many years with
out serious mishaps.
Reconstruction of the pool would
have cost nearly as much as building
a new one — and could not be guar
anteed against leaks. As an economy
measure, therefore, it was concluded
to use the pool in the Hall gymnasium
for both men’s and women’s swim
ming.
The old handball court in the Hall
gym has been converted into a
women’s dressing room, completely
equipped including electric hair

8

dryers. These will also be available
to visiting football players who will
use the place as a locker room on
Saturday afternoons this fall.
The walls o f the pool have been
given a glistening white coat of paint,
and the balcony overlooking the pool
has been removed and only one small
window now overlooks the pool. A
new convector-type heating system has
been installed, which is the pride and
joy of Superintendent Harry W ood.

Army at Mary Lyon
Parts o f three of the college-owned
buildings o f the old Mary Lyon
School on Harvard Avenue are now
occupied as a U. S. Army anti-aircraft
artillery command headquarters. Its
motor pool will be located at the foot
of the Mary Lyon hill on Yale
Avenue, behind Strath Haven Inn.
Soldiers attached to the outfit are an

LIGHTNING STRIKES CLOTHIER
During a crashing thunderstorm
this summer, lightning struck the
southwest corner o f the top of the
tower of Clothier Memorial. A
300-pound stone was knocked
loose and fell, burying itself in the
ground near the steps leading
toward the fraternity houses. No
damage except for one juniper
bush which sustained a few
broken branches.

everyday sight around the lower
campus and in the village of Swarthmore.
Pennsylvania State College con
tinues to occupy Mary Lyon Building
No. 3 — while the rest of the build
ings are used by faculty and men
undergraduates.
All three of the former Prep School
Buildings on Chester R oad are serv
ing this year as women’s dormitories.
Since 1947, Roberts Hall, the cor
ner building of the group, has been a
dormitory for married students, most
ly veterans, and their families. It has
been extensively redecorated over the
summer.
Woolman House, the French House,
was suddenly, a week before students
arrived, converted into a dormitory
for men. Unlike the conversion at
Roberts Hall, which involved remov
ing kitchen equipment and complete
redecoration, Woolman needed little
overhauling.
The new Morris L. Clothier fields
are now ready for football games with
a beautiful green turf, but it will be
impractical for the team to play there
this year. National defense programs
and lack of funds make it impossible
for the college to obtain metal needed
for grandstands so the football team
will have to use Alumni Field and the
old stands this year. This will not
cause complications since it is not
possible to begin the planned building
program at this time.

Title

Swarthmore College Alumni Bulletin 1951-10-01

Description

The Swarthmore College Bulletin is the official alumni magazine of the college. It evolved from the Garnet Letter, a newsletter published by the Alumni Association beginning in 1935. After World War II, college staff assumed responsibility for the periodical, and in 1952 it was renamed the Swarthmore College Bulletin. (The renaming apparently had more to do with postal regulations than an editorial decision. Since 1902, the College had been calling all of its mailed periodicals the Swarthmore College Bulletin, with each volume spanning an academic year and typically including a course catalog issue and an annual report issue, with a varying number of other special issues.)

The first editor of the Swarthmore College Bulletin alumni issue was Kathryn “Kay” Bassett ’35. After a few years, Maralyn Orbison Gillespie ’49 was appointed editor and held the position for 36 years, during which she reshaped the mission of the magazine from focusing narrowly on Swarthmore College to reporting broadly on the college's impact on the world at large. Gillespie currently appears on the masthead as Editor Emerita.

Today, the quarterly Swarthmore College Bulletin is an award-winning alumni magazine sent to all alumni, parents, faculty, staff, friends of the College, and members of the senior class. This searchable collection spans every issue from 1935 to the present.
