••• "University-College" Thesis Outlined by Dean Carmichael

A "dean's-eye" view of the 1937 University of Rochester was presented to students and the fathers of students at a recent meeting in Todd Union. A few alumni, whose sons are undergraduates, were present,' and they lost no time in urging the editors to make Dean Carmichael's picture of Rochester-based upon his observations during his first year on the campus-generally available to alumni.

The University of Rochester today may be considered merely selling it at retail," Dr. Carmichael said. "In America's leading privately-endowed University-College, many large universities, the undergraduate never really Dr. Leonard Carmichael, dean of the faculty of the meets, let alone comes to know intimately, as at Roch­ College of Arts and Science, told students and their ester, the real scholars of the Faculty.

APRIL - MAY 1937 Bill Cox Named New Grid Coach; Sports Teams Get Share of Wins

Choosing a successor to Dick Larkins, who resigned similar position at Washington High School, near as head football coach to return to the physical education Pittsburgh, where his teams have won most of the games staff at Ohio State, proved no easy task for the special against first-rate competition. The new coach is an committee composed of Dr. Edwin Fauver, chairman of unusually versatile chap, as, in addition to the sports the Athletics' Committee; Fred Hovde, assistant to the named, he is an experienced mentor in baseball, wrestling president; Burt Ewell, president of the Alumni Associa­ and boxing. tion, and Harmon Potter, president of the Students' Cox had to complete the school year at Washington Association.

Benny Bierman, whose outstandingly successful Minnesota teams have given him top ranking in his profession, will be in charge of the coaching school.

GOOD BASEBALL SEASON Varsity teams in the spring sports have emulated the winning ways of the swimming and basketball squads. Our representatives in baseball, track, tennis, and golf, in each case, have won more than half their engagements, at this writing, with the baseball and tennis squads turning in especially noteworthy performances. Five of seven games have been won in baseball, two of three dual track meets have resulted in Rochester victories with a second in a triangular engagement, while the tennis and golf teams have respective records of four victories in five matches and two victories in three COOKING UP A VICTORY PROGRAM? matches.

They were hit freely and issued no less than eleven bases on balls. The following Tuesday the home season was opened with Syracuse. A victory for the Rochester Rivermen seemed probable with a 7 to 3 lead going into the eighth inning, but the visiting batters suddenly began to hit Van Grafland's offerings freely and garnered three runs in each of their last two turns at bat to give them a 9 to 7 victory. Until May 8 a Varsity pitcher had not been credited with a no-hit game, but Gerry Zornow turned that rare trick on that day in the game with Hamilton on the River Campus. Even more remarkable was the total of one hit by the two teams, as Clark, the Hamilton hurler, allowed only a single safety, a line drive to right center by Robeson in the first inning. The hit eventually made possible the lone score of the 1 to 0 Rochester victory. Zornow struck out eleven of the visitors and permitted only one ball to be hit beyond the infield.
