A THE SYRACUSE ESCAPE PLAN N

E You couldn't find happier faces than on the Syracuse alumni who traveled through the Grand Canyon on an SU alumni tour last year. With Ellie Ludwig, consul tant to the Office of Alumni Relations (first row center, in black shirt and white shorts), offering her usual brand of Syracuse warmth, their trip was memorable.

I t had been quite a trip. Al Komar '50 of Syracuse thought nothing could be more exciting than the natural grandeur experienced during SU's tour through the national A parks. Until the state troopers started searching the buses. "They were looking for an escaped convict," laughs Komar. "The whole area was sealed off and they were checking every vehicle. We knew there was a lot packed L

0 into this tour, but this was a little more than we bargained for." While not every traveler on an SU tour can count on a chase after a desperado, everyone finds something special. Komar, an electronics manufacturer's representative, admitted he had been reluctant to try a tour, having always traveled on R his own. "People are afraid they're going to be herded around," he says, "but this was nothing like that. It was wonderfully relax ing. I didn't have to worry about checking in, handling lug gage, or anything else. This was roughing it made easy."

A More and more alumni are choosing to travel with SU because they can count on the high quality of the trips as well as experienced escorts, according to Sue Wlodychak Black, associate director in the Office of Alumni Relations. "We screen our vendors very carefully," Black explains. "We only select tour operators who give our alumni a first-class experience." N For June Vetter Rose '35 the appeal was the opportunity to travel with people of the same educational background. Before he died, her husband accompanied her on several SU trips. "We took the Rhine cruise, toured Switzerland and the Alps, and went to Alaska," says the retired librarian from Bingham G ton, New York. "Then last year a friend and I did the Rhone ACCOMPLISHMENTS cruise and met many interesting people. This year we're going with the Syracuse group to Scandinavia." An avid tennis player, Ross Cosimano '70 really couldn't see himself spending two weeks away from the courts on a cruise. But his wife talked him into it. E "The real attraction was seeing exotic places I'd always heard about, such as Turkey and Russia," says the semiretired Dr. W. Parkman Rankin businessman from Chicago. ''I'd never get on a plane and '41 (NEW) is special assis spend a week in Turkey, but visiting it from on board ship tant to the director of the was perfect." Walter Cronkite School of Irv Hotze '43 of Syracuse also enjoys cruises. He and his Journalism and Telecommu nephew joined SU host Ellie Ludwig once for a cruise along nications at Arizona State Alaska's coastal wilderness through fjords, rivers, and glaciers.

TH E WAY I T WAS R

"S-Y-R-A-C-U-S-E!" Betty Hopkins-Moses (extreme right, in white) and her peppy quartet of assistant cheerleaders, helped inspire the Orangemen to many foot ball victories. Other cheerleaders (left ot right) were Helen Green, "AI" Pepper, "Pru" Searles, and Helen Weir.

I N THOSE DEAR O LD COLLEG E D A Y S

By Betty Hopkins-Moses '33, Bear Creek, Pennsylvania

p Imagine a huge Military Ball just for women, with an ROTC guard at the doors to keep the men out. Or lively, sepa rate cheering sections at football games in Archbold, with women on one side and men on the other. Or Women's Day, when events from morning to night were run by and for the women on campus. Well, the men did hom in on strawberries and cream over cornflakes for breakfast on the Old Oval, after coed heralds rode around campus on horseback to sound reveille on their bugles and summon campus women to the festivities. I also remember when five women cheerleaders led cheers at the Columbia game in New York City. The next E year, when I was head cheerleader, we raised money to go again. Then came the shocker! Columbia's student maga zine ran a big cartoon showing the women leading cheers as an attraction for the coming game. That did it. New York City alums were humiliated and indignant. Our modesty was impugned! We must not go to cheer on that wicked field for Columbia students to leer at us. Not that we were very sexy in our heavy sweaters and flannel skirts almost down to our ankle socks. I In the midst of the Depression, simplicity was in vogue. We dated in borrowed cars or took streetcars. There were no lavish dinners out or pizzas (we'd never heard of them). We thrived on less expensive fare. We walked and talked, skied and biked, and went to basketball games or movies. Our dances were beautiful, with long gowns and tuxedos or tails, and lively college bands like Eddie Williamson's Parisians. My years at Syracuse were happy. I could have gone on and on!
