PhilharIllonia Story

and emotional communicability which thrilled and movedthe audience"-Lisbon; "equal to professional orchestras"­Madrid; " ... virtually a sensation"-West Berlin; " ... themembers of the orchestra play with abandon, high musicalability, thoroughness, and vigor"-MOSCOW; "dazzled with itsrhythmic accuracy and true inner temperament"-Kiev.

"The Stars and Stripes Forever" echoed, too, in the fre­quent conversations with students, musicians, and towns­people in the cities they visited. Everywhere there was in­terest in America, in the young people and their education.Communication was not limited to the universal languageof music spoken by the full orchestr~ in concert, or by thestring quartet, the brass ensemble or the jazz group thatplayed at practically every informal get-together. Friend­ships sprang up in the bi-national clubs in Spain and Por­tugal, at the many universities which played host to theentourage, at embassy parties, and of course, in the streetsand in the shops. The friends they made were many, butromance was strictly intramural-two couples announcedtheir engagements en route.

The impact the Philharmonia made in Russia is describedby Ham Allen, theater editor of the Rochester Times-Union,

who spent two weeks withthe group behind the IronCurtain: "It is the story ofan old man of Lvov, cryingsilently in a corner of theconcert hall and throughhis tears muttering duh­svee-dah-nee-yah (so long,until the next time) as theyoung players left the hall;others so smitten with theyoung musicians fromAmerica that they wantedonly to touch them as theywent by; of opened homesin a shuttered land; ofstruck-up friendships thatignited on dark streets be­tween music hall and hoteland sparkled into bright,wonderful moments of aspontaneous people-to-peo­pIe thing that no govern­ment bureau could' haveplanned, nor stopped; of

unmeasurable good will spread across Europe and throughthe Iron Curtain into the vast forbidding darkness ofRussian hinterlands where no American orchestra had everbeen before."

"The Stars and Stripes Forever"-the encore that drewencores overseas-was the welcome back for the membersof the Philharmonia as they stepped from their charteredplane at the Niagara Falls Air Force Base on February 25(it was the only airport in upstate New York with runwayslong enough for the jet plane). For a change, the Philhar­monia listened while the irrepressible march was played bythe Eastman Wind Ensemble. Also on hand to greet the

"Ach, du lieber Doktor Hanson . . ."-the autographseekers line up after the West Berlin concert.

returning musicians were bus-loads of fellow students, to­gether with a large contingent of University officials, alumni,and parents. It was a hero's welcome!

"The Stars and Stripes Forever" was far from being placedin limbo; on February 28, the famous Sousa march wasplayed frequently by all local radio and TV stations as asalute to "Philharmonia Day"-a day to be observed in Roch­ester forevermore by proclamation of the mayor.

That evening, homage was paid to the orchestra, Dr.Hanson, Dr. Fennell and other members of the entourageat a banquet tendered by the University. It was an eveningfull of glory and emotion and standing ovations. A hand­brushed, illuminated scroll of the Philharmonia Day Proc­lamation was presented by Mayor Henry E. Gillette. Ahandsome commemorative plaque was presented by CharlesL. Rumrill, '22, president of the Rochester Chamber of Com­merce. Herman D. Kenin, president of the American Federa­tion of Musicians, presented gold membership cards to Dr.Hanson and Dr. Fennell. A scrapbook of newspaper clip­pings of the tour was presented by Ham Allen for the Gan­nett newspapers. These were the material gestures of appre­ciation; as lasting were the words of salute on the success oftheir mission. Said Anatole Heller, State Department con­cert-master, "You were the best possible servants for yourcountry." Speaking for the Department of State, DanielMontenegro, acting director of the Office of Public Services,said, "The Eastman Philharmonia who came as oddities­cultured young Americans-were seen as accomplished musi­cians of professional caliber by any standard-and con­quered the applause and the hearts of all who heard andsaw and met them." A message from the White House readat the dinner echoed the feelings of all: "To all who haveparticipated so effectively in this great enterprise for build­ing greater mutual understanding go our congratulationsand deep appreciation."

With the accolades still ringing in their ears, it was backto the classrooms for the members of the Philharmonia. ForDr. Hanson: more kudos-he was awarded the Gold Medalof Honor by the National Arts Club and made appearanceson national TV and radio shows. For Dr. Fennell: a busyschedule of conducting and speaking engagements. ForRobert Sattler, tour manager: still more logistics in getting

back the harps stranded in Leningrad as well as accountingfor all the money spent. For those who held the fort onGibbs Street, it was the hearing of impressions, observationsand anecdotes of the trip. These are but a few-taken inorder of the itinerary:

PORTUGAL-The minor hitches, which all along the waywere met with ingenuity and aplomb, began with the tour'sfirst concert in Lisbon. Five minutes before the performancewas due to begin, an agitated Mrs. Hanson approached Dr.Fennell. The conductor had left his suspenders at the hotel.Racing to the basement of the theater, Dr. Fennell searchedthe Everest of luggage for his trunk. Successful, he extractedhis own suspenders and shot backstage. The concert began.American dignity was upheld.

SPAI - True to Eliza Doolittle's diction lesson, it rainedin Spain. Seville was flooded, the airport was closed, thetheater scheduled for the performance was under water.For a time it appeared that the concert would be canceled.Finally, air travel was resumed and the mayor requisitioneda movie house. The concert went on-for the benefit of floodrelief.

SWITZERLAND-The gregariousness of the Americanstudent was illustrated in the university town of Freibourg,where horn player Herbert Spencer was made a member of aFreibourg fraternity and was presented with all of theappurtenances of membership, including the fraternity'shat-a Swiss version of a Civil War cap. Said Civil War buffFennell, "Dig that crazy forage cap!"

FRANCE-The ties binding Rochester to its sister city ofRennes were drawn closer by the Philharmonia's visit. Theconcert, as everywhere, was a rousing success, and the de­lighted city honored the orchestra with a civic banquet. Inan outburst of sisterly affection, they piped the visitors intodinner with, of all things, a skid of bagpipes.

Souvenir-happy musicians made full use of a free day inParis. Any self-respecting swarm of locusts could havelearned a few tricks from watching the instrumentalistsstrip the music stores in their path. This continued through­out the trip. Typical was the enterprising young cellist whoordered the entire stock of cello music from a Moscow shop.

LUXEMBOURG-The Luxembourg engagement waseasily the maddest of the tour. Grounded by fog, the orches­tra arrived at the concert hall a scant quarter-hour beforethey were scheduled to play, wilted and famished from anall-day bus ride. In the true cliffhanger tradition, the in­struments were rushed into the __ theater moments beforecurtain time. With thefr formal concert garb still strandedon the road in a broken-down baggage truck, the Philhar­monia scrambled onstage in their traveling clothes, treatingthe Luxembourg audience to a kaleidoscopic view ofAmerican sportswear. Only Dr. Hanson, at first glance,appeared to be formally attired. A second glance revealedthat the elegance of his dark coat and striped trousers wasconsiderably modified by his footwear. The distinguishedconductor was wearing moccasins.

BELGIUM-Music making did not end with the encoresand ovations following the formal concerts. A jazz group ofsix Philharmonians entertained the Americans and theirhosts in after-hours sessions in student clubs, hotels andnight clubs across Europe and through the Middle East.Occasionally, as in the posh Blue Note in Brussels, thecombo's playing evoked job offers for next summer, whichwere regretfully turned down by the travel-weary musicians.

CYPRUS-Christmas found the itinerant musicians inCyprus, where they allayed homesickness by combiningtraditional American Yuletide customs with al fresco sum­mer activities-picnicking, cycling, and swimming in theMediterranean. Financed with funds collected by finingthemselves for minor infractions, the group distributed giftsat the two island orphanages. At the Greek orphan home,they were joined by President Makarios, also on a ,gift­giving mission. Friendly Bob Sattler, Eastman School con­cert manager, slipped him a Tootsie Roll, which the Presi­dent munched with obvious enjoyment.

SYRIA-In Aleppo, the first symphony orchestra concertin this ancient city's 5,OOO-year history was marked by theexplosion, fortunately harmless, of a plastic bomb in thecorridor outside the concert hall. Inside the hall, whereDr. Hanson was conducting his orchestral transcription ofSyria's new national athem (written since the country'srecent separation from the United Arab Republic), the bandplayed on, oblivious of the disturbance. Undeterred by dis­gruntled adherents of the old order, the country's radiostations plan to use the orchestra's recording of the anthemin opening and closing their broadcasts.

EGYPT-Rehearsals, also, were not without their inciden­tal excitement. Dr. Fennell recalls a rehearsal he conductedin the ballroom of a Cairo hotel in preparation for theorchestra's first Egyptian performance. He had just swunginto the Egyptian national anthem when Edouard Ebner,the tour's resourceful and efficient properties manager,erupted in,to the room. "Stop," he instructed. "That one wedo not play. It is the wrong anthem." Ebner had been tippedoff by the amused reaction of the hotel kitchen help, whohad come storming up the stairs hallooing, "The King isback!" Hastily, Fennell abandoned the anachronistic anthemthat he had been handed back in the States. For the remain­der of the trip, the orchestra prudently omitted nationalanthems.

Everywhere, opportunities for sightseeing were eagerlyseized. In Egypt, the touring musicians rode out to thedesert for an awed inspection of the pyramids and a chanceto tryout equestrian abilities aboard horses, donkeys andcamels. Mounting a camel, Boyde Hood, a trumpet playerfrom Texas, quickly made use of his Texas training to"figure out how the darn thing worked," and led his col­leagues in a wild chase across the desert, followed by atroupe of screaming camel drivers.

"Mare practicalthan pretty,"says Dr. Hansonof the Arabburnoose.

LEBANON-The Philharmonia marched into Beirut onthe heels of an abortive revolution. Although the cityseemed calm, the musicians found themselves casting ner­vous glances at the barbed wire barricades and gloweringtanks that they passed on the way to the concert hall. Theirbest source of information on what was going on, theyfound, was a reassuring shoeshine boy who accuratelypredicted that there would be no further skirmishes andthat the orchestra's visit would be serene.

TURKEY-"They always cancel Izmir." Residents of thisvenerable Turkish city (nee Smyrna) had been repeatingthis sad little remark for years. Faced with the relativeinaccessibility of the town, touring artists with tight sched­ules habitually decide that Izmir can be lopped from theitinerary. Determined to break the pattern, Dr. Hanson andother officials arranging the tour strove valiantly againstthe entanglements of red tape and the limitations of theIzmir airport. Aboard a borrowed Army plane equipped tocope with the airfield runways, the orchestra swooped intothe town-and into the hearts of its residents as the groupthat did not cancel Izmir.

GERMANY-Enthusiastic acclaim from critics was therule in every country. But if an exception is needed to prove

it, we cannot produce one; certainly not from West Berlinreviewers, who were uniform in their praise. Some samples:

Der Murier: "The concert has considerably increased ourrespect for the musical education in U. S. conservatories.Howard Hanson has trained his students excellently . . . "Telegraf: "Under the compulsive conducting of HowardHanson, the orchestra played with an electrifying rhythmicvitality. After this concert, a comparison with the standardsof our schools of music is depressing." Der Abend: "Theycan do very much, those young Americans. In team workand solo playing, their solid training bears excellent fruit.Their cleanness of intonation, rhythmic exactness, andwidth of dynamic expression can compete with many re­nowned orchestras." Die Welt: "This is an elite orchestra inthe true sense of the word, of which each individual instru­ment is perfectly placed."

In West Berlin, the Philharmonia came face-to-face forthe first time with tangible evidence of the struggle betweenEast and West: the Wall. "It's the ugliest thing I've everseen," said Donald Gilbert, percussionist. On the advice ofthe State Department, the orchestra was content to remainin the American Sector, but they spent many moments insober reflection at the barrier.

POLAND-If the tour had ended before the weeks inPoland and Russia, it would still have been an enormouslysucessful venture. The finale behind the Iron Curtain madeit the sensational triumph it was. Here, even more thanduring the first two months of the trip, the Philharmoniaproved the value of people-to-people diplomacy in. helpingto quench the Soviet world's thirst for knowledge aboutAmerica and its people.

One way in which this was accomplished was throughthe jazz group, which played for and with Polish studentsin Poznan, Krakow and Warsaw. In Warsaw, the Eastman

jazzmen were presented in the student club with two Polishgroups. According to Boyde Hood, "Both Polish groupsplayed well, especially considering the fact that the onlyjazz they have the opportunity to hear is either from theVoice of America or what few records they are able toreceive from friends outside the country. The first group,comprised of two altos and rhythm section, was right outof the '30's. The second group, of tenor, trumpet and rhythmsection had more of a modern feel of the late '40's or early'50's." "It was a great pleasure," he added, "to listen andspeak, sometimes through interpreters, with these musiciansand have the opportunity to play for them."

The entente cordiale with the Polish students was so firmlyestablished that the orchestra developed a following thattrailed them from city to city, and as the Americans wereboarding the plane that would take them to Moscow, stu­dents from the Warsaw Academy of Music trooped into theairport bearing parting gifts: a volume on "The Renaissanceof Polish Music" and some orchestral arrangements by oneof their countrymen.

RUSSIA-"This is a great, powerful, disturbing, puzzlingcountry," said Dr. Hanson, echoing Sir Winston Churchill'scharacterization of Russia as "a riddle wrapped in a mysteryinside an enigma." One thing was quite clear, however, theRussians liked the Philharmoriia's music and they liked theyoung Americans who played it.

Ovations were thunderous. The Philharmonians foundthemselves playing encores to the encores. Several timesthe lights had to be turned out to persuade audiences toleave the auditoriums. After one concert which he hadconducted, Dr. Fennell reported, "They tore the placeapart. And when I left the theater, they tore me apart."He nearly lost his coat buttons to the adoring mob, provingthat Elvis Presley-type fans do not exist only in America.

After the initial Moscow concert, when the musicianshad been kept onstage for 40 minutes after the end of the

8

scheduled program, an elderly Russian woman cast a grand­motherly eye on the triumphant-and slightly wilted­music-makers and remarked, "I was so worried for them.They are just children."

While the Russian people were friendly-concert goersrushed to the stage following performances to talk withmusicians, eager questioners surrounded them on thestreets, and many Russians opened their homes to thevisitors-the secret police treated the Americans with acertain official wariness. Several students reported thatthey had discovered hidden microphones in their hotelrooms, which set off a search by the others who did notwant to feel that they had been overlooked. On the streets,their movements were followed by a parade of secret policewho questioned anyone seen talking with the Americans.

With an accurate eye for the appropriate action, Dr.Fennell, who already had a small scar on his chin as testi­mony of his visit to the Barber of Seville, took a suddennotion to play Ippolitov-Ivanov's "Great Gate of Kiev" inits namesake city. Not one to be deterred by such smallobstacles as the fact that no copies of the score could befound in the city, Fennell wrote out the parts from his well­stocked memory and "The Gate" was performed in Kiev.

Along with classical music and jazz, the orchestra car­ried another aspect of American culture to the Soviet Union:the twist. The high-spirited Americans demonstrated thedance to little knots of fascinated Russians on street cornersas well as in student clubs and hotels. And here they metone East-West barrier that they were unable to surmount.Even by employing the most determined wheedling ofwhich the American college student is capable, orchestramembers were unable to persuade their Russian girl guidesto twist with them.

At one point, open warfare broke out in the snowy Sovietstreets between the Philharmonia and its Intourist guides­a hilarious snowball fight. In the thick of the battle was Dr.Fennell, demonstrating that the hand that wields- the batoncan also hurl a sizzling snowball.

The orchestra's Moscow visit started off with a bang.Midway through a reception for the Philharmonia at theresidence of Ambassador Thompson, an American-builtgrand piano collapsed with a thundering roar. In the stunnedsilence that followed the crash, Mrs. Thompson washeard to suggest helpfully that perhaps it had broken downbecause "it was overwhelmed by seeing so many musiciansfrom back home."

The Philharmonians are convinced that last summer'scrop of carrots and peas in the Soviet Union must havebeen stupendous. Their first dinner in the country featuredpeas and carrots. So did the second, and the third, and allsucceeding dinners during the weeks that followed. Theyalso had peas or carrots for lunch. Every day. With admi­rable ingenuity, the Russians served the vegetables in everyimaginable fashion.· Then they added some that wereunimaginable: who, for instance, would ever think ofpea tarts?

After the final concert in Leningrad, a note was smuggledonstage: "We congratulate you on your man Glenn." Itwas signed, "From your friends." It was at the same concertthat the little ladies of Leningrad carrying mimosa pressedtheir bouquets on the beaming conductors. "God bless theU. S. A.," said one. "'Your young people are wonderful."

Dr. Kenneth Herd is Ja­mee's physician. Jameethinks he looks like Presi­dent Kennedy and to heryoung eyes, he is evenmore important. He sawher when she first came tothe hospital and has beenher first line of defense allthrough her battle. Dr.Herd is a young man tornby two "loves"-on the onehand, he is dedicated toplanning the most effectivecare for his young patientswho have arthritis; on theother hand, he. would liketo spend as much time aspossible in the laboratory searching for some clue to ex­plain the nature of the mysterious rheumatoid-type ofinflammation. His laboratory research is supported byfunds available from the Arthritis and RheumatismFoundation for the study of problems of the changes thatoccur in connective tissues-the area in which inflamma­tion creates its greatest effect in rheumatoid a"rthritis.

Rheumatoid arthritis often behaves like an acute, in­fectious disease; this is particularly true of youngpatients. Often they have high fever with acutely swollenjoints and other evidences of severe inflammation. Thefirst task of the physician is to weigh carefully thepatient's history and the observations he makes in the

picture taken two yearsago when her reaction tocertain drugs ballooned herweight to 118 pounds. Shewas so embarrassed by herappearance that she woreoutsize slacks to cover herswollen knees and legs. Thewonder is that she can nowlook back on her experi­ences with equanimity. Ex­cept for a limping gait andsome deformity in herhands, this bright-eyed girlis well. No longer does shesuffer the excruciating pain; no longer does she wantto hide.

This story takes Jamee back in memory to the sevenmonths spent in the hospital. In June, 1960, she was broughtto the children's ward at Strong Memorial Hospital. Thiswas her first experience at the University's Medical Center.Here began the long battle to restore this crippled girl tonormal activity.

Jamee's story is an account of a small girl's courage.It is an insight into the unrelenting efforts of many peopleto help her. It is a small chapter in the constant explora­tion in search of the cause and ultimately the prevention ofcrippling arthritis.

ninds ... many hands . .. many skills . ..

The Medical Center is dedicated to the treatment of each patient asa whole person, a philosophy that demands the specialized skills ofmany people. In group conferences and private consultation, Jamee'scase was discussed. Thus it was that Jamee had the benefit of adviceand help from Dr. Robert Duthie and Dr. David States, whose ortho­pedic skills were able to keep her joints from becoming hopelesslydeformed. In the periods of emotional distress that grew out of herresentment at being immobilized and in pain week after week, Dr.Sanford Meyerowitz came to the rescue with his practical knowledgeof psychological problems and their solutions. Dr. Edward Atwater,assistant director of the Arthritis Clinical Study Center, Dr. EdwardMongan, an internist, Dr. Gerald Gleich, a microbiologist-all madecontributions to the treatment prescribed for Jamee.

Jamee needed help from other sources, too. Her program of physio­therapy had to be carefully planned. Her active mind had to be keptoccupied, and her hands kept busy-this was the responsibility of thepeople in occupational therapy. Her school work could not beneglected, and the Board of Education furnished a tutor who visitedher in the hospital. As Jamee's stay in the hospital dragged from weeksinto months, her family was able to turn to the local chapter of theNational Foundation for assistance made possible by the yearly Marchof Dimes campaign.

Jamee made many friends in the hospi­tal who are not called "doctor." One ofthese good friends is Lucille McMahon.

Miss McMahon is a social workerwhose duty in the Arthritis ClinicalStudy Center is to find ways and meansto make life easier for patients such asJamee. She is many things. She is a com­forter when a feminine touch is needed.She thinks of the little things that physi­cians are either too busy to consider orthink are of small importance. She plansand arranges for help at home and atschool. She is friend, big sister, mother,confidante, all rolled into one cheerfulpackage. Her primary task with Jameewas to establish a schedule of activity.There had to be a time for study, atime for hobbies, a time for watchingtelevision. This discipline was not al­ways easy to maintain, she says now,"but Jamee was such a good patient."

Another friend is Don Young. Jameethinks of him as "the strong one," for heis the physical therapist who has helpedto strengthen her muscles, atrophied byher disease. It is he who taught her howto walk again. It is he who gently butinsistently made her move her painfuljoints so that she would not freeze intoa disabling deformity.

At first it was jembarrassing ... finally, Jamee beganbe fun. The bedside visits became a bnbe Dr. William Bradford and his bi:smile, and Dr. Herd, too. And, therwould be five or six very serious medicastudents, and a friendly nurse or two awell.

Many young men and women havseen Jamee during the time she waspatient in Strong Memorial Hospital, anin the Arthritis Clinic. These are thmedical students who will become tcmorrow's physicians and medical sciertists.

area, as in the area of treatment, there is the exchange ofinformation and ideas by many men with many skills. Thismerging of disciplines could take place only in the environ­ment of a university medical center. Dr. Jacox points outthat it is possible for the University Medical Center to carryon the triple-pronged program of research, treatment andeducation in arthritis only with the support of the NationalFoundation. Now in its third year here, the Arthritis Clini­cal Study Center is one of a handful of such groups acrossthe country.

The fires of inflammation areburning low now Jamee is reasonably freefrom pain; she did not become crippled by her acute dis­ease. She sees Dr. Herd less frequently. Although she stilldepends on her wheel chair, she can walk short distances.She goes to school every day; it is a special school forchildren with orthopedic afBictions. Otherwise, Jamee islike any ten-year-old girl: she likes to dress up in frilly partydresses, yes, even put on nail polish; she likes milk, icecream, boys and dogs-not necessarily in that order. Whenshe grows up, she would like to be a veterinarian. Thereis every hope that she will continue to improve . . . thatshe will grow into womanhood with only small scars toshow for her long and courageous battle. For all who havehad a part in her treatment, Jamee is a source of pride ...and inspiration in the unending battle to cure and, perhaps,even to prevent rheumatoid arthritis.

•The University has progressed $16.4 million toward the$49.9 million goal of its Program for a Greater University.The program, launched in September, 1959, is a compre­hensive long-term undertaking to obtain new funds forcapital and operating purposes to meet needs projectedthrough 1965.

As of December 31, 1961, a total of $9.8 million wasreported in funds for capital improvements, and $6.6 mil-

. lion in funds for operating purposes. Total capital needsprojected by the Greater University Program through1965 amount to $28.7 million for capital improvementsand $21.2 million in new endowment (or $954,000 inassured additional income each year) for operating pur­poses.

Terming the progress of the program "most hearteningevidence of the wide-spread support for the Universityand its goals," Mercer Brugler, chairman of the GreaterUniversity Council, pointed out that the program "stillhas a considerable way to go." He noted that the fundeffort was designed as an "open-ended program whichcould embrace new needs as they emerge."

Further encouraging news on the progress of the pro­gram is reported by Donald McMaster, chairman forcorporate giving of the Greater University Council, whoannounces that annual corporate support of the Univer­sityhas nearly doubled in the last two years. Corporatecontributions rose from approximately half a million dol­lars in 1959-60 to nearly one million dollars in the fiscalyear 1960-61.

Contributions came from 103 industrial and businessconcerns. Some gifts have been designated for scholar­ships, fellowships, facilities, or research; others have beengifts-in-kind.

Among recent notable examples of this type of supportis a grant of $100,000 made by the Esso Education Foun­dation. Like many of the corporate gifts, the Esso grantis unrestricted.

!IThe department of political science will have a new chair­man in September. He is Dr. William H. Riker, at presentprofessor of government at Lawrence College, Appleton,Wisconsin.

His appointment will free Dr. Glenn G. Wiltsey, de­partment head since 1950, to devote his time to teaching,research and writing. Dr. Wiltsey, who will continue asprofessor of political science, came to the University in1945 as associate professor.

A specialist in the fields of American government andfederalism, Dr. Riker is the author of two books, Democ­racy in the United States and The Study of Local Politics.He spent the last year as a fellow at the Center for Ad­vanced Studies in Behavioral Sciences.

•In a neat process of cell division, the department offoreign languages will split into two separate depart­ments next fall.

The new department of languages and linguistics willbe responsible for all foreign language courses in conver­sation and composition, and more advanced courses inlinguistics. The department of foreign and comparativeliterature will offer literature in the classics, Romancelanguages, German, Russian, and Arabic, eventuallybranching out into Indic and other Oriental languages.

Head of languages and linguistics will be Dr. D. Lin­coln Canfield, since 1954 chairman of the foreign lan­guages department. Althol,lgh a new chairman of theliterature department has not yet been named, one newappointment has been made. Dr. Kurt Weinberg, cur­rently assistant professor of French and comparativeliterature at the University of British Columbia, will beprofessor of European literature. A native of Germany,he is a graduate of Trinity College and Yale University.

!IHarkness Hall, long devoted to the military sciences, willassume a partially civilian air next fall following exten­sive remodeling and expansion of the two-story building.

Renovation of the hall will provide needed space foradditional classrooms and offices for the University's ex­panding programs in anthropology and sociology, eco­nomics, and political science, and will, for the first time,permit these related departments to be housed in thesame building. The Navy and Air Force ROTC units willcontinue to use the hall.

The $665,000 remodeling project will include the addi­tion of a third story and renovation of a two-story areawithin the building formerly occupied by an outmodedgun no longer needed in the naval science program.

IfHeading toward "the far distant goal of understandingbehavior in terms of neural activity," Dr. Robert Doty,professor in the new Center for Brain Research, has em­barked on a series of studies assisted by a grant of $138,­165 from the U.S. Public Health Service.

The studies of learning, perception and neural integra­tion will be conducted in three broad areas: investigationof learning and motivation through electrical stimula­tion of the brains of animals; electro-physiological andbehavioral analysis of pattern recognition; and studies ofcomplex motor coordination and its triggering, as in theact of swallowing.

A second grant to the Center, $75,000 from the Na­tional Science Foundation, will be used by its director,Dr. E. Roy John, for research on "brain stimulation anddifferentiated conditioned responses."

COLLEGE OF

BUSINESS ADMINISTRATION

!»!A request to "send this over to Gavett" may create a littleconfusion on the campus this fall. Does the designationrefer to the ivy-covered engineering building or the newassociate professor of business administration?

The cause of the confusion is understandable. Both thebuilding, Gavett Hall, and the professor, Dr. Joseph W.Gavett, III, are named for the same person: the lateJoseph W. Gavett, Jr., chairman of the former departmentof engineering until his death in 1942.

The younger Dr. Gavett, more easily recognizable as"Bill," a graduate of the University in 1944 and one-timedirector of Todd Union, will return to the campus in Sep­tember after finishing out the current academic year asassistant professor in the department of industrial andengineering administration at Cornell University. He hasalso been visiting professor in Cornell's Graduate Schoolof Business and Public Administration, coordinator of itsindustrial engineering seminars, chairman of the sectionon small plant management, and has filled out his sparetime by acting as consultant to several business firms.

COLLEGE OF

EDUCATION

~A master's thesis written for a king has just been sub­mitted by a University of Rochester student.

The student: Asaph Lule of Buganda, Africa.The thesis: a proposal to revamp the educational sys­

tem of Buganda.The king to whom the thesis will be submitted: the

ruler of Buganda-His Highness, the Kabaka.Lule was on leave from his post in Buganda's Ministry

of Education while he completed work for his master'sdegree. According to Lule's adviser, Dr. Byron Williams,professor of education, the thesis is "a scholarly work inevery respect"-in short, a master's thesis fit for kinglyconsideration.

~Sponsored by National Science Foundation grants total­ling $120,000, four institutes for teachers will be con­ducted by the College this summer. Three of the pro­grams-in organic chemistry and earth science, and aprogram offering opportunity to participate in research­are intended for high school teachers. The fourth, alsoin research participation, is aimed at college teachers. Anumber of departments in the Medical School, the ArtsCollege, and the College of Engineering will cooperatein the research participation programs.

!!Effective September 1, three assistant professors of edu­cation will be promoted to associate professor. They areDr. Glenn N. Hontz, who is also director of student teach­ing for the College; Dr. Clarence J. Karier; and Dr. JohnJ. Montean, who holds the additional appointment of co­ordinator of science education.

COLLEGE OF

ENGINEERING

!IAn impression that the administrative tasks involved inthe smooth operation of the Institute of Optics have in­creased enormously in the last few years is no mere opti­cal illusion. In the last five years, to cite one example, theresearch budget has more than doubled to approximately$600,000 per year.

To permit the Institut~'s director, Dr. Robert E. Hop­kins, to concentrate more of his efforts on faculty recruit­ment and general development of the Institute, two assist­ant directors have been named. They are Dr. M. ParkerGivens, professor of optics, and Dr. Kenneth J. Tee­garden, associate professor. As assistant director in chargeof academic affairs, Dr. Givens has responsibility for cur­riculum, relations with students, and Institute publica-

tions. In his new role of assistant director in charge of re­search activities, Dr. Teegarden is concerned with theplanning for research associates, problems of researchspace, and the maintenance and management of shops,equipment and supplies for research.

!»!A graduate fellowship program in optics will be estab­lished next fall in the Institute, supported by a grant fromthe American Optical Company. Awards, to be known asAmerican Optical Company Fellowships, will be grantedto two or three graduate students each year.

~IRichard F. Eisenberg, '44, formerly associate professor ofmechanical engineering, has a new position as associateprofessor of metallurgy in the department of chemicalengineering. He joined the engineering faculty as an in­structor following his graduation, and was advanced toassistant professor in 1948 and associate professor in 1954.

MEDICALCENTER

~A new associate medical director for the Strong MemorialHospital has been appointed. He is Dr. Isidore Levine,assistant professor of medicine and of preventive medi­cine and community health. Dr. Levine also has beennamed associate professor in the new department ofhealth services and has been promoted to associate pro­fessor of medicine and associate physician in the hospital.The new appointments were effective February 1.

As associate medical director under Dr. Leonard D.Fenninger, who was appointed medical director of thehospital in ovember, Dr. Levine has as his primary re­sponsibilities the out-patient and emergency services andthe new ambulatory diagnostic center of the hospital. Hecontinues to teach and to plan educational programs inthe Medical School with particular emphasis on ambula­tory patients.

~Although it doesn't have a bosomy beauty on the cover,nor a title with the general appeal of Lincoln's Doctor'sDog, a hefty four-pound volume produced by the Uni­versity's pharmacology department has overcome thesehandicaps to become something of an international medi­cal best-seller. Fan mail has arrived from Australia toAlaska and even from behind the Iron Curtain.

A highly technical 1,000-page encylopedia, ClinicalToxicology of Commercial Products is now in its thirdprinting, and a new, completely updated version is sched­uled for publication later this year.

"CTCP," as it is familiarly called, is a comprehensivemedical directory of commonly used products whichmight be involved in accidental poisoning in the home oron the farm. It is recognized as the standard reference

work for poison control centers throughout the UnitedStates and is widely used in many other countries as well.A monthly bulletin supplementing the original volumeis sent to all state and territorial health departments andto authorized poison control centers.

Incidental intelligence: when the pharmacology de­partment's best-seller came out in 1957, it cost precisely224 times as much as the usual drugstore paperboundnovel.

!O!Like the little drops of water and grains of sand in thecouplet, little bits of data soon mount up to overwhelmingproportions, particularly in a medical center devoted totraining, research, and patient care. Help in dealing withthese vast accumulations of data has been promised theUniversity through a grant of $89,181 awarded by theU.S. Public Health Service for the establishment of a dataprocessing center.

The specific aim of the award is to make available dataprocessing equipment to all departments in the MedicalCenter and to support research projects by collecting andanalyzing data. It will also make it possible to preparedata for computer analysis, to introduce medical person­nel to high-speed computing equipment and its potentialin the solving of complex medical and biological prob­lems, and to provide consulting service to the professionalstaff.

~i\~"",'I.eIn July, the infectious disease unit of the department ofmedicine will have a new head. He is Dr. James M. Col­ville, staff physician in the division of infectious diseasesat the Henry Ford Hospital, Detroit.

Dr. Colville, who has been appointed associate pro­fessor of medicine and assistant professor of microbiology,will collaborate with members of the department of mi­crobiology in conducting programs of teaching, patientcare and research in the field of infectious deseases. Healso will continue and expand research on antibiotics inwhich he has been engaged for a number of years.

What are the relative effectiveness and costs of the var­ious types of health care for the aged?

The University of Rochester, along with two otherRochester institutions, the Council of Social Agencies andthe Patient Care Planning Council, hopes to come upwith an answer to this complex question through a four­year research program aided by a Ford Foundation grantof $325,000.

Interest in the study, believed to be the nation's firstintensive community-wide project on this subject, stemsfrom the fact that medical care for the nation's over-65population has become one of the country's major healthproblems. Three factors-the rising need for medical andrelated services for the aged, the increased number andvariety of medical facilities available, and sharply mount­ing costs of medical and allied care-have stimulated in­terest in finding ways to improve health services for theelderly.

The results of the program are expected to have a far­reaching effect in helping to determine the future pat­tern of medical care for the aged.

!!A University of Rochester scientist believes he may havefound out why people in regions with hard water sufferless cardiovascular disease than those in places where thewater is soft. He is Dr. William H. Strain, research asso­ciate in radiology (biochemistry), who made his reportat a year-end symposium of the American Association forthe Advancement of Science in Denver.

According to Dr. Strain, at least part of the answerseems to be the vanadium that has been found in the hardwater of the Great Plains and the Southwest, where deathrates from cardiovascular disorders are low. The traceelement was, on the other hand, almost uniformly absentfrom the soft water of the coastal and Great Lakes stateswith comparatively high death rates from these disorders.

The report was based on statistical studies conductedduring the last year in this country and in England. Al­though the association between deficient vanadium andcardiovascular disease is still only statistical, Dr. Strainfeels that the connection is reasonable because vanadiumhas been shown to inhibit the manufacture of cholesteroland phospholipids, both of which have been implicatedin arteriosclerosis. Thus, the vanadium in hard watermight prevent or at least retard the build-up of thosesubstances in the arteries. This would protect against thedisorder, which is characterized by such congestion.

!I"To avoid a serious shortage of physicians in the 1970's,the number of medical students in the United States mustbe increased in the next eight or nine years by approxi­mately 50 per cent," declared Dean Donald G. Andersonlast month in urging that the federal government providematching funds for expansion of facilities for medicaleducation.

As president of the Association of American MedicalColleges, Dr. Anderson testified before the House ofRepresentatives Committee on Interstate and ForeignCommerce in support of a bill designed to provide match­ing federal funds for construction of facilities and forscholarships and general operating expenses of the na­tion's medical schools.

The lack of physical space to accommodate more stu­dents is the most serious bottleneck in increasing the out­put of physicians, he said. "We mtlst in a decade or lessincrease by 50 per cent facilities that required nearly 200years of private and local effort to establish."

He added that "an expansion of this magnitude can beaccomplished in the time required only if federal fundson a matching basis are available for the construction ofnew schools and for the expansion and renovation ofthe educational and research facilities of existing schools.It is our sober judgment that while private and local taxmonies should participate significantly in the expansionthat is needed, funds from these sources will not be avail­able in sufficient amounts to accomplish the task thatconfronts us."

Also needed, to attract the increased number of stu­dents required, are more adequate scholarship funds thancan be provided by local or private sources, he said.

Eastman School0/Music

!ICivil War buffs and amateur musicologists alike will snapto attention when they hear the sounds of battle andbugling as these have been faithfully reproduced onMercury Records by Dr. Frederick Fennell and the East­man Wind Ensemble. Volume I of The Civil War, "FortSumter to Gettysburg," is now available in an albumcontaining two LP records and a 23-page booklet whichdocuments the five years of research and technical re­hearsals that went into the recording of these impressivesounds. The long-term undertaking, inspired and di­rected by Dr. Fennell, was made possible by a SpecialProjects and Recording Fund, established by the EastmanSchool on the recommendation of Dr. Hanson.

Assisted by a reactivated Civil War unit-Battery B, the2nd New Jersey Light Artillery-the Ensemble thumpsand trills out tunes culled from music books that wereactually employed by Union and Confederate armybands. Seventeen over-the-shoulder horns (authenticallyrestored by student members of the Ensemble), threepiccolos, four clarinets, and two drums aid the Unioncause, while the Confederacy is represented by brasses,buglers and fifers, with Dr. Fennell drumming up support-literally.
