PHOTOGRAPHS: In 1963 we were privileged to introduce the work of Franke Keating. Good things, perhaps, come in pairs, for now we offer the work of another national- magazine photojournalist, Don Rutledge of Murfreesborcv Tennessee. His astonishing ways with architecture are am- ply illustrated on the cover (All Saints' Chapel) and the Oxford influences on Sewanee shown on the following pages —a subject he has handled for a forthcoming pictorial essay in the New York News Sunday supplement and syndicate.

The Sewanee News Campaign Total Passes $3,650,000

By the end of January, gifts and pledges to Sewa- nee's Ten Million Dollar Campaign totaled more than #3,650,000. This represents an increase of over three- quarters of a million dollars above the amount re- corded November 1, 1963. Despite dedicated work on the part of many Cam- paign volunteers and hundreds of year-end gifts, the halfway mark was not reached by January 1. The Campaign Executive Committee has now set Febru- RutleJec ary 15 as the working deadline for raising the addi- tional #100,000 necessary.

12 The Sewanee News When photojournalist Don Rutledge came to Sewanee on as- signment to illustrate the Oxford look, his camera probed beyond superficial resemblances to bring out a sense of con- tinuity from the medieval origins of universities. Here are not only unexpected and striking patterns in the familiar. Here is Sewanee's tie with the past, the preservation of what man has learned without truckling to the ephemeral. At right below are four of Sewanee's Oxonians: C. F. Allison (D.Phil.). Arthur B. Dugan (B.Litt.), James W. Brettmann (B.Litt.), and Thad C. Lockard.

a few graduate students. The plans for these are nearly completed and the site has been chosen between the PDT house and the old Magnolia lot. If we can find the money in time, these should be built in 1965. Carnegie Hall will then be converted to lecture rooms and offices, and it will be ex- tended to the north to fill the last gap in the original quadrangle. Money for this extension has already been pledged. While dormitories are being built on the new campus we expect, for two years at least, to continue to feed all students at Gailor Hall. If necessary we can provide two sittings. All boys who do not have 11 o'clock classes will au- tomatically be assigned to the first sit- ting. Chapel will be shifted to 9:00 a.m. to avoid conflicts. When money is available for a new dining hall we hope to build a proper one with a Stu- dent Union included in it (but no dor- mitory rooms) on the site of old Mag- nolia. For a year or so then we can go back to one sitting at 12:30 p.m., but in two dining rooms. Then when the dining room for the new campus has

The Sewanee News —

Mr. Ransom lists points to bear in mind in arrang-

ing a visit for a prospective student.

1. Notify the director of admissions as far in advance as possible. Give name, address, and school of the

candidate and tell us as much about him as possible his interests, extra-curricular activities, background. The admissions office will write personal letters and send the Sewanee booklet describing the school.

2. The admissions office is open from 8:30 to 4:30 Mondays through Fridays and until noon on Saturday during the year and from 8:00 to 1:00 Mondays through Fridays in summer. Appointments are not made on Saturday afternoons or Sundays.

3. The alumnus or candidate should make room res-

ervations at the Sewanee Inn or nearby motels. It is no longer possible to house prospective students in dormitories, which are crowded to capacity.

(Note: the Development Office is sometimes able to help secure accommodations for groups. A pleasant enterprise has arisen, particularly among alumni cler- gymen, of bringing a busload of young people to tour

the domain. Mr. Chitty's office engages student guides and stands by to be helpful.)

This decision has made it possible for companies all over the United States to make contri- butions to education.

Albert Woods was one of the great men in the history of the University of the South. His loss will not only be felt in the Sewanee Ten Million Dollar Campaign but in all the important activities of the University. We must all work harder than ever before in behalf of Sewanee to try to make up for this tremendous loss.—John Guerry, president of the Associated Alumni.

November 1964 Football Fourteen in a row before Washington and Lee

T he Sewanee Tigers opened their season by wal- loping Millsaps 54-7, and many began comparing this team with last year's undefeated squad. The de- fense kept the Majors in check all afternoon while the Tigers converted break after break into touchdowns. One highlight was an 80-yard run with a fumble by guard Jimmy Stewart, the lineman's second such feat in three years.

Hampden-Sydney, one of the top small colleges in the South, was next for the Tigers, and they showed they were equal to the task by whipping the Virginia Tigers 28-6 on their own field. Bill Johnson's two long runs (he gained a total of 159 yards rushing) plus out- standing line play by tackle Wilbur Wood and ends Frank Stubblefield, Jack Sanders, and Doug Paschall aided Sewanee's cause.

November 1964 13 The Mountain Off the Mountain

Founders' Day was celebrated in ATLANTA by 124 persons at the Druid Hills Golf Club, with Tommy and Lucy Linthicum bringing the din- ner off with their unfailing adeptness. University His- toriographer Arthur Chitty and Campaign Vice-Chair- man Hinton Longino spoke. W. Porter Ware went front Sewanee, taking with him a garland of lovely ladies: Medora Cheatham Hodgson, Ellen Brooks, and Laura Wyatt-Brown. Mrs. Ralph Black was their hostess.

The new president is O. Morgan Hall, with John Wall vice-president and T. G. Linthicum secretary-treas- urer.

The Sewanee Club of COLUMBIA had a stag cook- out on September 9 at the country home of Gus and Doll Graydon. More than forty alumni, students, prospective students and friends attended. President

Kirkman Finlay, Jr., writes, "The Sewanee Club of Columbia seems to be well under way.

14 The Sewanee News —

IJr. L. Spires Whitaker, '31, has been named vice president of the Associated Alumni for corporation support. He succeeds Rhett Ball, '34, who was forced by business pressures to resign. Dr. Whitaker, whose appointment by the Alumni Council will extend through June, 1965, is a thoracic surgeon in Chatta- nooga. His function will be to enlist and work with a chairman for corporation support in each city in which a Sewane Club is located. His objective will be to encourage visits by alumni upon business firms which make contributions to educational institutions of which Thomas Sublette there are increasing thousands. If Sewanee alumni Jordan, 1918-19G2, or Episcopalians are highly placed in a firm, the ap- while he was at proach should not be difficult, thinks Dr. Whitaker. Sewanee. See p. 13. Arguments are (1) the South needs a beacon of excel- lence and Sewanee is the best hope for excellence in undergraduate education in the region; (2) Sewanee provides a college in which intellectual attainment is fused with Christian idealism; and (3) Sewanee is providing a superior and enlightened leadership, far out of proportion to its size, for religious, civic, and business enterprises.

One of the most generous matching offers in the his- tory of Sewanee's alumni classes was made in early October. An anonymous member of the Class of 1949 who did not want anyone to know who he was said that he would match, dollar for dollar, up to $25,000, all funds given by his classmates prior to September t, 1965, to the Ten Million Dollar Campaign. This means

that if one of those classmates gives $1,000 the anony- mous donor will give $1,000 and then the Ford Foun- dation will match both gifts with another $666—a total of $2,666 from a $1,000 gift. Class president John """ Guerry points out, "We have ten months and two tax years in which to take advantage of this splendid pro- posal."
