Lee Gives Last Lecture; Hall Speaks In Peace Corps Greeted
Presents Influence Of Friday Chapel With Enthusiasm By
Chinese Art In America On Extremism Students Nationwide
Last Thursday, April 6, at
7:30 p.m. in the Filene Room of
Pettigrew Hall, Dr. Shao Chang
Lee, visiting professor of Oriental Studies, lectured on "Chinese
Art at Bates." Dr. Lee introduced his subject by mentioning
that in recent years Chinese art
has become of great interest to
the American people.
Many American painters have
become influenced by the study
of Chinese art and have shown
this influence in their works.
Among these are Mark Tobey of
Seattle, and Jackson Pollock. A
number of United States citizens,
said Dr. Lee have amassed large
collections of Chinese art objects and have placed them in
institutions of higher learning.
Cites Bales Collection
Dr. Lee then spoke of the gifts
to Bates by Freeman Hinckley
of Boston and Elizabeth Sarah
Perkins of Foxcroft, Maine of
Chinese and Japanese art. Slides
were shown of eight of the objects on display which were of
special interest and value.
First a 19th century ceremonial couch was shown which was,
according to an old social custom, placed in the formal sitting
room for receiving the guest of
honor. Then slides were shown
of a 15th century gold decorated
incense burner with an intricately carved base, and topped with
a piece of white jade.
Painted Scrolls Shown
After this Dr. Lee explained
the meaning of two long scrolls
of narrative painting. The first
one he told the audience illustrated the whole process of feeding silk worms, producing cocoons, and weaving silk, while
the second depicted people picking, sorting, and packaging tea
leaves.
• One of the objects of greatest
interest was an imperial robe of
the Tao-Kuang period (18211850) worn by the emperor on
certain ceremonial occasions in
late spring. The design dominating the robe was the five-clawed
dragon. Other objects shown
were an 18th century porcelain
figure of the goddess of mercy,
Kwan-Yin, a 15th century wooden figure of a Buddhist abbot,
and a statue of the Queen of
Heaven of the 16th century.
After the slides, Dr. Lee conducted the audience to the
Hinckley
Room where he
answered any questions that they
might have for him. This was the
last lecture that Dr. Lee plans to
give on the Bates campus.
"He is a lecturer and a writer
who has succeeded in carving
out for himself a rather unique
place in society." With these
words Dean Zerby introduced
the speaker for Friday chapel.
Mr. Gordon D. Hall. However,
Mr. Hall turned out to be more
than just a lecturer and writer,
instead he was as the National
Education Association has described him, "a considerable help
in revealing information about
extremist groups reported to be
undermining some of our finest
American institutions and organizations."
*
In his talk, Mr. Hall dealt with
those groups which are in his
words "on the hard right." The
first types on which he spoke
are those which have as their
basic premise the containment of
communism. As a prime example
of just such a group he used the
John Birch Society. When Mr.
Hall pointed out some of the remarks of this society, such as
calling former President Eisenhower a subordinate to his brother Milton in the Communist
Party, the audience laughed. He
then quickly pointed out that although this seems ridiculous,
"How many of us have been
guilty of the loose language that
permits this sort of extremism?"
Mr. Hall then went on to point
out that the John Birch Society
has succeeded in enrolling 100,000 members, and that in spite of
the recent adverse publicity in
the press, very few members
have resigned.
Deals With Discrimination
The discriminatory groups
such as the American Council of
Christian Churches, whose basic
appeal is the strengthening of
religious ideals, which in reality
are anti-Catholic, anti-Negro or
anti-Jewish, next came under
surveillance. These groups, Mr.
Hall pointed out, gain a large
membership through people who
join without looking beyond their
religious label. However, this is
not to say that these groups are
not dangerous, because working
within them is a dedicated hard
core who do honestly feel that
the Catholic, the Negro, or the
Jew must be eliminated in
America.
In closing, Mr. Hall stated his
purpose as "an informed citizenry. You, as college students,
are in a position to know, but
if you don't know what a danger
extremism is, how can you possibly expect others to know?"
The only manner in which to defeat these movements, is not
through public sanctions or impositions on their freedom, but

Sorokin To Lecture Sunday
By LINDA BROWNING '64
"Eventfulness has possibly been
the most significant feature of my
life-adventure," says Dr. Pitirim
Alexandroviteh Sorokin, American Sociologist. "In a span of
seventy years, I have passed
through several cultural atmospheres. . . . Starting my life
as a son of a poor itinerant artisan and peasant mother, subsequently I have been a farmhand,
clerk, teacher, itinerant artisan,
factory worker, conductor of a
choir, revolutionary,
political
prisoner, journalist, student, editor of a metropolitan paper,
member of Kerensky's Cabinet,
an exile, professor of Russian,
Czech, and American Universities, and a scholar of an international reputation. ... I fully
tasted six imprisonments — three
under the Czarist and three under the Communist regimes.
"... Born and reared
among the Komi, Urgo-Finnish
people in the North of Russia,
up to the eleventh year of my
life I did not see even a small

ment of Vologda Province. After
six weeks of waiting to be shot,
by Lenin's order I was freed to
return to my academic activity
| at the University of Saint Petersburg. There I became founder,
first professor, and Chairman of
the Department of Sociology. . . .
Since 1930 I have been living and
working at Harvard University
as the first professor and Chairman of the Sociology Department." Dr. Sorokin now directs
the Harvard Research Center in
Creative Altruism. He is the author of many books and pamphlets in the field of Sociology.
As evidenced by the posters
seen on campus, Dr. Sorokin will
be speaking here on Sunday,

Tareyton delivers the flavor...
creasing the basic differences between the social institutions, system of values, and the ways of
life of both nations. In this way
these forces have been eliminating the justifiable reasons for
continuation of these wars and
conflicts.
2. "The progressive decrease
of the basic differences of both
countries means that their social
institutions, culture, system of
values and the ways of life are
mutually converging to the third
intermediary type which is going to be neither Communistic
nor Capitalistic, neither fully
Totalitarian nor fully Democratic. The emerging type to which
both countries are converging is
likely to be of sui generis type
incorporating in itself the positive values of both countries and
progressively freeing itself from
their defects and pseudo-values."
3. "This objective — and truly basic — process gives a firm
foundation for the policies of
termination of wars, of establishment of peaceful coexistence
and cooperation of these and of
all other countries, and for
building a new-nobler and better-socioeultural order in human
universe. This does not mean
that a new war between these
countries and their allies is impossible, but if it explodes, the
explosion will be entirely due
to the folly, greed, lust for power,
and irresponsibility of the ruling
cliques and the "brain-washed"
masses of both block of nations."

A Spring Weekend?
This year when the Class of 1961 graduates, Mayoralty
will cease to be of much social interest on the Bates campus.
The present seniors are the last to have witnessed the electric
event which swept the campus one weekend each spring
until two years ago when an unfortunate display of student
overenthusiasm prompted the Mayoralty Committee to do
away with the project.
So now Bates has no big Spring Weekend. Spring fever
turns to apathy and is directed toward "getting out of this
hole as fast as possible." Last year the Chase Hall Dance
Committee sponsored a weekend of activities in conjunction with the poorly attended Ivy Dance. This spring the
same Committee is planning a similar weekend which will
probably include a brief Thursday night carillon concert,
co-ed dining, a jazz concert on the library steps, an art exhibit, Ivy Dance, Popham Beach outing (sponsored by the
Outing Club), and an intramural softball game which will
take the place of last year's Saturday afternoon outing at
Thorncrag which was also poorly attended.
Lacks Competitive Spirit
.
The Committee, is to be commended for attempting to
maintain a spring social weekend at Bates and for maintaining
a framework of events from which a weekend as successful
as Mayoralty can evolve. We feel, however, that any such
weekend should be centered around an element which Mayoralty possessed and which the present, somewhat disjoined weekend activities lack: competition. If we can introduce this element of competition into the weekend in
such a way as to overcome the flaws in Mayoralty that led
to its downfall, wo will gain the feelings of unity and anticipation which are necessary for a really successful Spring
Weekend at Bates.
Murderous Labels
We all laughed when last Friday's Chapel speaker remarked that one extremist group had labeled President Kennedy as "the top agent for the Communist Party in the United States." Mr. Hall was wise to follow our amused response
with "You laugh, but how many of you do the same kind of
thing when you rashly brand your classmates with false
labels, simply because they differ with your beliefs?"
Hall's missile found its mark and was particularly embarrassing to a college audience. In an atmosphere which
supposedly develops perceptive judgment, we become uncomfortable when reminded of our mentally obtuse habits.
We may attempt to understand an individual, but when we
are at odds with him how often do we commit the
double mental murder of forcing upon him a label which
deadens him to our mind and us to his personality? The
slothful, self-centered person always oversimplifies anything
with which he comes into contact. Afraid to recognize the
valid grounds on which others differ with him, he closes his
mind to the truth about his "enemies," and consequently
about himself. How can we understand a world which is
becoming more complex, when we place on others the ignorant labels of our own simplicity?

high fidelity manner of which
only FM broadcasting is capable.
The hosts for these two hour
programs, Fred Rusch, Dennis
Akerman, Al Seelig, Cathy Warren, and Dick Calcutt, have coordinated recordings from the
RJR files and private collections
to bring you, the listener, the
greatest variety of classical
works possible. As a program

{Students Interview Coeds
About Campus Social Life
By LINDA CORKUM '64 and ALICE WINTER '64
"Social life? What social life?" Remarks similar to this
one are heard regularly on the Bates campus. Are these
words spoken in jest, or do the students feel something is
definitely lacking in the college's social realm? When the
coeds were confronted with the question, "What do you feel
is lacking in the social life at Bates?" the typical answers
were as follows:

BATES STUDENT, APRIL 12, 1961
STUDENT Salutes Class Of 1961
Class Numbers 21
Outstanding Athletes
By JIM HALL
By AL MARDEN
Although this year's senior class has somewhat of a dearth
of athletic talent in comparison with their predecessors,
those seniors who have frequented Bates' enormous athletic
plant located on the south side of campus, have made up for
this lack of numbers and quality by the desire and effort
they have put into their respective sports. Therefore, in
this issue we salute these aged veterans of the Bates athletic
wars.
In the manner of "Sports Illustrated" I would like explicitly to single out Dick Yerg as deserving of a "Pat on the
Back". "Yogi" and the boys he led charging up and down
the swamp at the far end of Garcelon Field have been neglected when the laurels have been handed out. Yog especially should have been commended for the fine job he did as
both captain and coach of this year's and last year's Garnet
booters. Dick and Johnny Adams are the only four year veterans of the '60 Bobcat soccer squad. Both these men have
put up a long and diligent fight to get soccer recognized as a
varsity sport, but to no avail. They were joined by Alan
Wayne and Skip Marden who provided newspaper support
to the cause. Tine, Bates is a conservative school but it
would seem that four years of a trial period is ample, but
more of this next fall.
As the grounds of Garcelon gobble up the snow and water
that winter has so disrespectfully left on its surface, and
prepare for the onslaught of spikes, cleats and javelin tips
which will be penetrating it soon, it seems somewhat irrelevant, sacrilegious and downright disrespectful to talk about
happenings on the hard wood. (Excuse me, Garcelon Field,
but you'll have your day.) However, while listening to those
fantastic Boston Celtics the other night, the Master Magician
did something that reminded me of the Colby-Bates overtime
game. During the break between the regulation time and
overtime something happened which went unmentioned and
perhaps unnoticed by many. I happened to look over at the
Bates bench and saw Mr. McCormick, our beloved trainer,
waving smelling salts under the noses of Carl Rapp and Jim
Sutherland. He may have done the same to others but I
missed it.
These two men had extended themselves beyond the limit.
Now I'm not advocating the pushing of oneself beyond the
limit of human endurance, unless of course as with the case
of Mr. C. the reward is sizeable (although I'm sure his motives were different), but with a little more effort maybe
more of those close ones that are on the records would have
gone the other way. It seems to boil down to how much one
wants victory.
The current intramural setup has in the past been under
sharp survelliance by the Sports Editor and I intend to carry
on this tradition. While looking over the final volleyball
statistics it becomes apparent that something is lacking. In
the "A" league each team had four games scheduled. Only
two of the five played all four games and surprisingly enough
they were the first two teams in the league. Correspondingly,
in the "B" league only one team of seven played their entire
schedule. The last five teams in the league played only onethird of their games. Something is necessary to induce the
participants to play each game, win or lose. In the all-campus
elections the student body elected to keep the present intramural system. I challenge those who so elected to come up
with some possible remedy for the above problem.

Twenty-one seniors close out
their Bates college athletic careers this season. Among those
who will "retire" are football
standouts Dick Ellis, John Belmont, Brad Greene and Dick Jeffers, Jim Sutherland and Scott
Brown of hoop fame, baseball
man Dick Gurney, cindermen
Barry Gilvar. Jim Keenan, and
DcWitt Randall, and soccer stars
Dick "Yogi Yerg" and John
Adams and Brad Garcelon.
Frank Vana has been the tough
luck guy in Bates athletics for
the past few seasons. After a
great sophomore year in baseball,
Frank was kept out of his favorite sport during his junior year
due to an injury during the indoor track season. Frank was a
standout broadjumper and dash
man in track. He also played
some football for Coach Hatch
until these injuries forced him
out of action.
Jim Sutherland, captain of
this year's successful basketball
team rates plaudits for a fine senior year in which he led his
team to a 15-9 record, pacing his
squad in scoring and rebounding.
Jim was given all-New England
recognition.
Football captain Dick Ellis has
been one of the mainstays of the
line during his four years at
Bates. Dick has left many holes
in his tackle position for Bobcat backs to burst through.
Dick Gurney came into his
own behind the plate last year
and was elected captain of this
year's baseball team. Dick also
performed well at end for the
football team.
Track captain Barry Gilvar
has been Coach Slovenski's top
dash man for the past two seasons, excelling at the short
sprints indoors and the 100 and
220 outdoors. Barry also holds
down a spot on the relay team.
Dick Yerg has played four
years of soccer for the Bates soccer club. The husky fullback was
elected captain of last fall's
team.
Continuing the parade of captains, Mai Johnson is this year's
golf captain. Besides excelling on
the links, Mai showed steady improvement for the Garnet hoop
squad during his four years.
DeWitl Randall was captain of
this year's cross country squad,
and a four year participant in
indoor and outdoor track. Randall is one of the hardest working runners at Bates and one of
the few Garnet runners to win
letters in three running sports
in one year.
Besides Dick Ellis, the Garnet
football squad will also lose its
other starting tackle, John Belmont. John was a mainstay in
the Bobcat line through the
years and his offensive and defensive skill will be missed.
Dick Jeffers. the oldest man
on the squad, has seen much acIMPORTANT NOTICE

tion in his football days. Dick has
been an outstanding guard on
Coach Hatch's eleven.
Brad Greene is another who
wes kept off the field often,
through injuries. Brad normally
would have assumed a starting
role at guard and played well
when not hampered with injuries.
Senior Manager
Badger Lauded
This year Bates loses one of
the finest members of its football squad. He is manager Jerry
Badger. His loss will be felt as
much as any other member of
the squad. Jerry was the guy that
Bob Engstrom, coming out for
football as a senior, did not have
the experience to play first
string, but stuck to the practice
grind throughout the season.
Dick Walkins, another who
didn't play for the Saturday
cheers, exhibited loyalty and determination in aiding the Bobcat cause during scrimmages
and other hard-knocking sessions.
Speedy Jim Keenan excelled
in both football and track, returning punts and kickoffs for
the football team and running
the low hurdles in track. Jim
proved to be the most elusive
Garnet ball carrier in the open
field and headed the list of this
year's low hurdles.
George Goodall did not run as
a senior but formerly was one
of Bates' best middle distance
runners, excelling in the 600 and
often in the relay.
The basketball squad will miss
the services of first string guard
Scott Brown. Scotty, the possesser of the best long jump shot on
the team, played aggressively on
•defense and moved the ball on
offense.
John Curry had several nodding acquaintances with Coach
Peck's basketball team and
wound up as second string center
behind Jim, Sutherland in his
junior year.
John
Bennett, a starting
moundsman for the baseball
team will play his last game this
spring. The possesser of "good
stuff", John is one of Coach Leahey's top moundsmen.
John Adams, a four year performer for the Soccer Club, will
have to be replaced next year,
John played halfback for the
Garnet booters.
Senior citizen Brad Garcelon
played well at halfback for the
soccer team, adding the wisdom
of age to the team's performance.
Ralph Bixler played some good
tennis in his early days at Bates,
recognized as being one of the
best players with the squad.
Jerry Badger
did the hundred-and-one essential jobs without which there
could have been no concentrated
effort on the field.
Active In Athletics
Jerry comes from East Longmeadow, Mass., where he attended high school. There Jerry was
very active in athletics, being a
member of both the cross country and tennis teams. His interest
in athletics survived Freshman
Week, and he became assistant
manager of the football team
and also the tennis team. The
West Parker deacon became head
manager of the tennis team his
sophomore year and reached the
head manager spot on the football team this past fall.
Jerry's interests and talents
also range into the academic side
of Bates life. His list of honors
includes being president of Jordan Ramsdell, and chairman of
the Journals Club. While at
Bates, Jerry has been taking a
Pre-Med course and next year
plans to attend Tufts Medical
School, which further testifies to
his many talents.
When asked to reminisce
over the past four years of
football, the senior had the
following comment: "This
year's was one of the best in
regard to spirit that I have
ever seen at Bates." Commenting on past teams, Jerry
said that perhaps the two
best players he had seen al
Bates were John Makowski
and the well-known lineman,
John Lijestrand.
