Alumni Honored at Commencement

Two members of the Alumni Body were honored at the Commencement Exercises held on June 3rd. John H. Neville, x98, and, George R. Gleason, xOl, were given the Rollins Decoration of Honor. In making the awards President Holt said:

John Henry Neville, a loyal, faithful and successful alumnus is the greatest asset of any college. Whether as a business man in the Northwest, as a Y. M. C. A. leader Overseas in the Great War, as a Knight Templar, or a church member you have ever played your part as a good friend, a good neighbor and a good citizen. Today you are conspicuous among the sons and daughters of Rollins in devoting your time and efforts to the strengthening of the Rollins Alumni Association and the upbuilding of your Alma Mater. For these services Rollins H. P. ABBOTT College is pleased to bestow upon you the Rollins Decoration of Honor and admit you to all its rights and privileges. George Rufus Gleason, no alumnus of Rollins College has made a more enviable name for himself in foreign fields than you.

Not because of the high order of your scholarship and be- havior, but because of the qualities of mind and heart which ELIZABETH TREVOR, '36 have been dominant in your thinking, I am happy to bestow upon you the Algernon Sydney Sullivan Award whose name In bestowing the Algernon Sydney Sullivan Award is a symbol of kindness and grace, with the hope that you find in it satisfaction and new incentives as long as you live. upon Miss Trevor, President Holt said: Elizabeth Trevor, among the members of the Senior Class are many splendid girls who have entered into the privileges HORACE PORTER ABBOTT, '36 and opportunities afforded during their years of student life.

To this enriching environment you have responded and have appreciated the beneficent values for which Rollins was created and has been maintained.

But you have been more than a beneficiary. You have given of your thought, of your time and above all, of yourself. Con- sidering the needs of others, you have served; discovering new opportunities for helpfulness you have been faithful and generous in fulfilling your growing instinct as a brother and a friend. And we trust that these impulses may grow and en- large as you enter in more fully and freely the challenging world of which you are a part.

THE ROLLINS ALUMNI RECORD for JUNE 1936 Rollins Crew Wins Over Manhattan

Quoted from the New York Times of June 1st: "A powerful, smooth-stroking crew from Rollins Col- lege of Winter Park, Fla., fought off a game closing challenge by Manhattan's varsity eight to triumph by half a length in a match race over the Henley course of one mile and five-sixteenths on the Harlem River Levy yesterday. "As the bronzed Tars glided across the finish line off the Manhattan boathouse, on the Speedway near Dyckman Street, cheers from the many Southerners among the spectators who lined the seawall and Joins thronged the boat club floats echoed across the river, for this was the first victory scored by Rollins in three years of intercollegiate rowing. "It was a nip-and-tuck battle from start to finish and at no time was there open water between the "Yankees' crews. Manhattan got the better lift at the start and showed in front for the first few hundred yards. Rol- lins, rowing at a lower beat, but getting more of a run between strokes, overtook the Jaspers at the quarter- mile mark, and from that point was never headed. "By the time the crews had pasesd under the 181st Street Bridge, about a half-mile from the start, the Southerners had a full length's lead, their longest ad- vantage of the race. Rowing desperately, but ragged- ly, Manhattan closed the gap to twenty feet at the three-quarter-mile mark, only to fall behind a full length again at the mile. "With the finish line in sight the Jaspers once again

Levy was signed by Johnny Nee, ace Yankee ivory hunter, here as the Rollins Tars completed their 1936 baseball season a week ago against the University of Florida. Nee outbid Washington and Cincinnati for the services of the hard hitting Rollins first sacker. Levy was first spotted by Nee last summer in Green- ville, S. C, where Levy was playing semi-pro ball for Poe Mill, one of the numerous textile teams in that section. Levy wound up the season hitting .375 for the mill team and returned to Rollins in the fall to play football. He was a star player in the intramural basketball league this winter. This spring for the Tar diamond crew Levy hit .360. The new Yankee recruit was graduated from Swan- nanoa High School near Asheville and attended Oak Ridge Military School for his preparatory training. At Oak Ridge he was tutored by Earle Holt, one of the best baseball coaches in the South, who sent up to the big leagues such stars as Wesley and Rick Farrell, Lefty Dean, Ray Hayworth and Jackie May, among others. Continued on Page 6 THE ROLLINS ALUMNI RECORD for JUNE 1936 Unique Gift to Alumni Fund An excellent painting has been given to the Alumni Association to be sold for the benefit of the 1936 Alum- ni Fund. The artist is Lois Bartlett Tracy, '29. Lois has made quite a name for herself in the art world, and this evidence of her continued interest and loyalty in her Alma Mater will be of great assistance in the work of the Alumni Association. The painting, "Jungle Trails," was on exhibition in the Library on Graduation Day. Lois is rapidly taking her place among the prominent artists of the day. Just recently she won for the second time the prize for the "Best Florida Subject" at the Florida Federation Exhibit. She has had three jungle scenes chosen by regional juries for the National Fed- eral Exhibition.

Rollins Press, Inc. It's a date—

Look up all the promising advertisements you can find about travel in Europe, along the shores of the Mediterranean, toYosemite Valley or even the Grand Can- yon, and then come to Woodstock, Conn., this summer and see those promises come true.

Woodstock, Conn., has everything—hills, trees, a lake, dusty roads, macadam roads, horses, chickens, and the finest herd of Jersey cows in seven counties. (Advt.)

Now that we have done our bit for the local Board of Trade we can begin to tell you the REAL reason why you must come to Woodstock this summer. If you cannot manage to spend a month or even a week be sure to come for at least one day. We shall even name the day—

AUGUST 15

Being Saturday and pay-day, there should be no reason to keep you away. Curi- ously enough a lot of other folk are coming the same day. Most of them you will know. Before you leave you will know all of them. You'll see Peggy, who kissed you good-bye at the train in Winter Park in June. And there you will find Tom who has been working like a trooper all summer and will be tickled to death to tell you about it. You'll see alumni whom you haven't seen in years. You'll have the time of your life.

Sometime around August 15, President Holt will be observing his 64th birthday. That is one reason for the annual Woodstock reunion. You'll want to step right up to him and congratulate him. And he will be powerful glad to see you-all again.

We can be mundane at this point and say there will be refreshments—provided you forget to bring your own. There'll be a program of some sort. And swimming. And handshaking. And chewing the rag. In other words, a grand time that old Re- unionites wouldn't miss for the world.

Mark it down in your date book now: Saturday, August 15. We'll be seeing you. 1936, LIGGETT & MYERS TOBACCO CO.
