It is also the only residential treatmentinstitution conducted by a university that concentrâteson research into what makes children psychotic, andhow to treat them if they are.Ail the children we work with were once bent ondemolishing life. Most of them tried to ruin their ownlives; a few that of others. But in either case, a wantonloss of life was at stake. Because a life is just aseffectively destroyed if it has to be spent behind thewalls of a mental institution, as it is when a personis murdered.In défense of our children I would like to say thatno child becomes psychotic unless he has corne tofeel that the entire world as he knows it, is bent ondestroying him. It is this extrême conviction that leadshim to extrême solutions: either he will try to destroyhis enemies first, as the homicidal child does, or hewill choose to shut out entirely a world that seemsfrightful to him, so much so that he does not respond at ail and will even turn mute for years on end. Insome children this goes so far that they do not evenblink in reflex when water spurts in their eyes. Theresuit is that such a child seems feeble-minded orbrain-damaged.Only one effect of our research is that many children who used to be considered defective, brain-damaged, or feeble-minded and put away in institutions for life are now recognized as suffering fromchildhood psychosis, and therefore treatable. Abouttwenty years ago when we started to concèntrate onthis group of children, they ail came to us with thekind of fatal diagnoses that are only now being slowlycorrected because of results we— and since then alsoothers— report. The reason is that to be able to saythat a child is suffering from this and not that psychiatrie disturbance is extremely difficult, particularly myoung children. Often the only reliable way to arriveat a correct differential diagnosis is to see what thechild can become after the kind of prolongea therapywe specialize in at the school.2 THE UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO MAGAZINE JUNE, 1965By Bruno BettelheimBruno Bettelheim, Principal of the Sonia Shankman Orthogenic School, is the Stella M. Rowley Pro-fessor of Education and Prof essor in the Departmentsof Psychology and Psychiatry. The présent article istaken from an address to The University of ChicagoCitizens Board.The Orthogenic School is one of our LaboratorySchools and as such is part of the Graduate Schoolof Education. The work of the School is carried on ina complex of three buildings, covering half a blockon the south side of the Midway, at Dorchester Avenue. At présent an adolescent unit is being erectedat the same site with the help of the Foundation forEmotionally Disturbed Children, which has supportedour work for many years. This means that soon weshall extend our research and training into the fieldof adolescence, including juvénile delinquency, whereknowledge is so badly needed.Ours is a small institution, and quite expensive tooperate. Forty-five children are in résidence, year inand year out, 365 days a year. Half of them are boys,and half girls, and we admit them as young as sixyears of âge. They remain with us for quite a longtime because it takes easily fîve or more years tochange a psychotic child into a successful citizen ofthis world. I could tell you with pride that more than* tnird of our children go on to collège, which isa much higher percentage than for the population atlarge; and this though thèse youngsters got off to sucha misérable start. I should say too that we also hâvesome failures— which are heartbreaking because thosewe cannot help yet will hâve to spend the rest of theirlives in a mental institution. But as we learn more wehâve fewer and fewer failures, which is most en-couraging.For many years the Orthogenic School was theonly residential institution concentrating in this fieldof work. That several others exist today is due inpart to the success of the School since it demonstratedthat thèse children who were once considered hopelesscan be returned to society. But it is still the onlyinstitution of its kind conducted by a university. This4 THE UNIVERSITY The Orthogenic Schoolmeans that we not only draw on the intellectual andresearch resources of our University but in turn serveits many departments, including those of éducation,psychology, and psychiatry. For example, ail médicalstudents at the university who train to become psy-chiatrists spend part of their residency at the Orthogenic School. It is the only place on campus wherethey can familiarize themselves with children whosepsychiatrie disturbance is so severe that they needcare in an institution.Our own work combines the disciplines of éducation, child development, social work, psychology, andpsychiatry. Our children provide, for example, theDepartment of Pediatrics with study material rarelyso readily available to students of medicine. Thus inaddition to the contribution we ourselves make toother fields of knowledge, our work provides a uniqueopportunity for integrating many disciplines. Becauseail too often thèse separate disciplines suffer in theirresearch by having to deal with this or that aspectof the disturbed child, in isolation.When I used the term hopeless before, I meant bythat children who are considered beyond the reachof présent methods of treatment, or in whose casesail known methods of treatment were tried withoutsuccess. Many of our children are so disturbed thatoften not only students in training but even specialistsin the field hâve never seen any like them. To use onlyone example, we work with children who seem sowild and subhuman that for centuries youngsters likethem were known as ferai children or wolf childrenbecause it was thought they were raised by wildanimais. One such girl, during her first year withus, bit staff members so severely that they had to betaken care of repeatedly at Billings Hospital. I amtold that because of her, Billings treated more casesof human bite in that one year than in ail of itsprevious history. Difficult as this made life for ourstaff, they counted it a small price for trying to restore this child to sanity. More important, from ascientific point of view, our work with her enabledus to repudiate once and for ail the ancient diagnosisof wolf child and to recognize that, far from beingraised by wolves, thèse are very human children whosuffer from a most severe affliction called infantileautism.CHICAGO MAGAZINE JUNE, 1965Bruno Bettelheimr In America today, ail sicknesses together do not oc-cupy as many hospital beds as mental disturbancesdo. Many of thèse disturbances originate in childhood,though it is not often they are full-blown enough torequire in-patient treatment at so early an âge. If weknew more than we do about the origins of thèsedisturbances in infancy, and knew better how to treatthem, we would also know a great deal more of howto prevent their occurrence in childhood. Only thiswill radically reduce the number of adult patientsneeding hospitalization. This is why we feel that préventive work in childhood is so greatly significant.As our name implies, the Orthogenic School, is notonly a psychiatrie hospital for children but also aschool in which our 45 children and their teachersattend classes daily. The reason is that in childhoodand adolescence, learning plays a tremendous rôlein mental health; for our children it is not only essentiel for their future well-being but in itself is a mostimportant tool of recovery. And hère too, ours is the, only institution of this type that concentrâtes on research into methods of educating severely disturbedchildren, research that is badly needed in our schoolsfor the éducation of more mildly disturbed children,whose numbers run into the hundreds of thousands.Another aspect of this problem looming large todayin our minds is the éducation of the culturally deprived« child. Therefore we also try to develop teachingmethods that are appropriate to varied types of severemaladjustment, including those that afHict many dis-advantaged children.The Orthogenic School serves both the childrenof the rich and the poor. But since most of our societyis middle class, so are most of our children. Let me\ illustrate by just one example, how a child raised ina comfortable home can corne to feel that the worldintends to destroy him.After years of treatment at the School a boy who' came to us suffering from delusions and deep dépressions finally told us how, when he was not even threeyears old, some older boys played a hanging game,with himself as their victim. The rope actually eutoff his breathing and he was only revived after artifî-cial respiration., Because the older boys dreadedpunishment if he talked, they began a régime ofterror. Again and again they beat up this very small child, threatening worse if he should tell on them.And to make their threats effective, they locked himup in an excavation and kept him there in the dark-ness for long stretches of time in spite of his terrifiedscreams.This boy who had suffered from childhood schizo-phrenia spent many years at the Orthogenic School.But after that he went on to our Collège where hegraduated, won the Murray award, and married agirl who was herself one of our outstanding students.He is presently about to get his Ph.D. from Harvard.Since that child came of a professional family, Ishall, on the other hand, tell you about one child ofthe poor, to illustrate the range of children we serve.This second child fought back on both fronts. Henot only tried to kill those he felt were out to killhim, but also withdrew from the world by pretendinghe was stupid and mindless.As an illegitimate child, he was deserted at birthby his mother. He was placed in a succession of fosterhomes, since one home after another found him un-manageable even at this tender âge. While still aninfant he was recognized as severely disturbed. Butsince no facilities were available, he continued to beshifted about so that when he finally came to us wecould not say for sure exactly how many foster homeshe had been in. He was referred to us at the âge ofseven because he tried to carve up another child. Bythat time he was so withdrawn that he was near muteand his performance was so below his âge that he wasconsidered defective at birth. After we had finishedour work for him and he left us, he worked for a timeon an assembly line. Then he decided that he wanteda more skilled job and put himself through barberschool. By now he has not only been a successfulbarber for several years but is happily married andthe father of a delightful child. He is still somewhattongue tied— that is, while he speaks clearly and con-cisely, his speech is slow aiid deliberate, the wordsdo not flow easily— but he is a steady worker and agood wage earner. He has established a pleasant homefor himself and his family and is as well adjustedto life as the so-called average person, and moredeeply satisfied with it than is common.So much about our results. But what exactly doesour work consist of? It is at once very simple andJUNE, 1965 THE UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO MAGAZINE 5The Orthogenic Schoolordinary and the most complex thing in the world.What has been wrong with previous efforts in thisfield was that the basic approach to thèse childrenwas to encourage them to see the world as it reallyis, though this is exactly what they cannot do. Thereis just no way to convince a person directly that thisis a good world to live in if he is totally terrifiedby it and in utter despair.Instead our task is to create for thèse children aworld so différent from the one they were used tothat they really feel we are with them in their world,and not that they are once more repeating the expérience that "everyone wants me to corne out of myworld and enter his world." And who indeed wantsto join the enemy on enemy ground?Ifs been told that one day when Ruskin and Tenny-son sat down to a game of chess, Ruskin said "Maythe better man win," to which Tennyson replied, "Ihope not." This is our hope, too: that thèse children,who are the worst players in the game of life, willsit down with us to a new game in which they willeventually win. And this though it is a game wherewe do not know the rules, nor even the moves. Thèsewe hâve to learn from the child, though they are hisbest guarded secrets and he tries desperately to keepus from knowing them.But our work, after ail, is not a game— neither ofchess nor of life. To explain it perhaps I should saya few things about earliest personality development.its most far-reaching impact through the light we canthe infant develops. This is why our work may hâveits most far reaching impact through the light we canshed on thèse shadowy beginnings of life. If thingsproceed normally, the child is born into what we callhis average expectable environment; this means anenvironment for which the normal child seems wellprepared at birth, so that step after step he can makethe adjustments his environment demands. It is howmost children manage to grow up successfully. Butjust because it goes so smoothly in normal developmentwe hâve overlooked till very recently what tremendousadjustments the body and mind of the child has tomake. For example, when he is born he must suddenlybreathe for himself, or later on he must move fromliquid food to solids and must learn to chew up his food. Another tremendous adjustment, a change in histotal way of experiencing the world is required whenthe child learns to walk erect. Never again in our livesdo we face so difficult a task as to learn to walk erect,and to talk.In each of thèse crucial steps along the normalway of growth, any number of things can go wrong.How much so, and why, we are just barely comingto understand, and hère again the work of the Orthogenic School has made significant contributions.Now what went wrong, and why did it, in thisearly development of the children we serve? In récentexperiments of sensory-deprivation, we take an adéquate, adult person and place him in an environmentwhere no stimuli can reach him. For example, he issubmerged in water until he becomes weightless, hebreathes through a straw in his nose, no sound andonly diffused light can reach him. And what we findis that nobody can stand to remain in such a situationeut off from the rest of the world without a radicaldétérioration of mind and personality. After a numberof hours— it is différent for each individual— but any-where from a few to 12 hours, his thinking becomespsychotic. Such experiments cannot be extended be-yond about 48 hours, because the person may remaininsane for the rest of his life. This suggests howradically the mind and personality break down ineven the normal adult if he meets up with somethingtoo différent from his average expectable environment.So much for experiments where stimulation was radically reduced.There hâve been opposite experiments in which per-sons were subjected at one and the same time to avariety of différent stimulations. For example, six oreight différent voices blare différent messages in hisear, with ail voices talking at once. Within hours theresuit is exactly the same as the one produced by atotal absence of stimulation. Hère, too, personalitybegins to be psychotic, and again thèse experimentscannot be conducted for too long because of thedanger that the mind will break irreversibly.From our expérience it is reasonable to assume thatpart of what goes wrong with the children we workwith parallels the experiments just described. Quitea few of our children were extremely sensitive tostimuli, as infants, much more so than is usual. There-6 THE UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO MAGAZINE JUNE, 1965Bruno Bettelheimfore they received many more stimuli from the environment than they were prepared to digest.With other children we hâve good reason to assumethat what they suffered from was much too littlestimulation. Thèse are children who were reared insevere emotional isolation. And that this can anddoes kill was known as early as the 13th century A. D.If children do not receive adéquate stimulation,they do not eat or respond in any way, and if theydo not die of marasmus they live on in an extremelydeteriorated state. Certainly the indiffèrent fosterh>me some of the children knew early in life (children about whom we read in our newspapers whenthey suddenly run berserk and kill without seemingreason)— or the succession of foster homes of the boywho later became a barber— represent extrêmes of toolittle stimulation. And thèse were imposed on anorganism totally incapable of dealing with an existencethat was either constantly changing or totally empty.An example of extrême overstimulation as it pre-vented normal development is the boy who was firsthanged and then beaten and locked in the dark. Fora child not yet three years of âge this daily threato, brutal assault and the daily fear of strangulationwere only too real to him because of the hanging.They were also an unmanageable overstimulation, andagainst thèse he tried to protect himself by shuttingout the world altogether.I hâve talked at length about what goes wrong inthe early life of thèse children to suggest that theygrow up in a world of expérience that is severelytraumatic to them. Our task, then, is first to discoverwhat might be (for them) something akin to what(for the normal child) is an average expectable environment. And this we must do rather late in theirlives since we do not start to work with them beforethey are six or seven. To find ail this out is no meantask because thèse children, as I've mentioned, arenot only unwilling to let us in on their secrets; butdo not even know what they are. Ail they know isthat they cannot live in this world. Thus it is up tous to find out first what the secrets are that they them-selves do not know. After that, and for each of ourchildren, we hâve to create something that will some-how take the place of what the normal child couldm mage as an average expectable environment. But since the personalities and historiés of our childrenare so différent, it has to be a différent environmentfor each of them. And since we hâve to work with45 différent children, theoretically we hâve to create45 différent environments. You will realize that to dothis fully is impossible of course. Therefore we con-centrate not on creating an entirely new environment for each child, but on doing it for those spécialJUNE, 1965 THE UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO MAGAZINE 7The Orthogenic Schoolfeatures of his expérience that are most significantto him.This, then is why the Orthogenic School is radicallydifférent from ail other treatment institutions I knowof. Some treatment institutions are quite skillful intrying to fit the mildly disturbed child into the exist-ing environment. But what they are best at is alsowhy they fail the more seriously disturbed children,because thèse are children who cannot fit themselvesinto the existing environment. We, on the other hand,instead of trying to fit them into our environment, tryto create an environment they can readily fit into, asthey are. Of course when we hâve done so, we cannot stop there. Because our goal is to help them slowlychange so that they can make a go of things in ourworld. But that we create an environment they caneasily fit into gives them the novel conviction that suchan environment can and does exist.Often they are startled to find out they are nottotal misfits, contrary to ail past expérience. Withthat they begin to realize that there are some environ-ments, namely that of the Orthogenic School, in whichthey can hâve some measure of success. And, as youknow, nothing succeeds like success. Because theyhâve now tasted success in the business of living theyslowly give up the conviction that they are misfits,that to survive they need thèse crippling défenses ofattack and withdrawal, of delusion and pseudo feeble-mindedness. Most of ail, since they no longer feel inconstant danger they can give up, step by small step,hating themselves, and hating others. As they corneout of their shell and begin to look around them, theybegin to recognize that this new environment theyare living in was specially and lovingly created forthem, and by us. Because of this, they begin to puttrust in us and in themselves. And this trust we canthen use to help them re-adjust their view of themselves and the world.How this is done is not easy to explain, so I willhâve to sélect a very simple example. You are ailfamiliar with the run-away child. Basically there areonly two types of institutions for such children, eachusing a différent approach. In one, the typical reformschool, the child is locked up behind walls or wirefences and in this way kept from running away. Whatis wrong hère is that while they cannot run away, being cooped up increases their hatred of themselvesand others too. This is why such institutions are rightlycalled high schools of crime. What turns them intocriminals is not— as is commonly thought— what theylearn there. It is the increase in hatred that corneswith being cooped up. You see, the run-away childis driven to run by his own anxiety; running is theonly protection he knows. As a matter of fact, wehâve known run-away children who ran away becausethey felt the pressure within them to commit homicide. It was only by running away from the présenceof the person who evokes fear in them that theycould protect themselves from committing murder.In so-called therapeutic institutions, on the otherhand, such youngsters are given more leeway. If theyfeel they hâve to run, no obstacles are put in theirway. While this is more benign, it still does not curethem, because they still live in utter loneliness. No8 THE UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO MAGAZINE JUNE, 1965Bruno Bettelheimone joins the child in his empty world when he isat his most desperate. In short such treatment failsto see the world through his eyes, fails to make contact with him on the level where he is. It still expectshim to reach out to us on the level where we are.Therefore when we deal with run-away childrenwe neither try to lock them up, nor let them run bythemselves, but try to hâve a staff member run withthe child. In this way we do not drive him to despera-tion by preventing him from doing what he feels hemust. On the contrary, we recognize and respect hisneed; but by joining him, by running with him, wecan protect him from hunger, from cold, from furtherdelinquencies and arrest and worst of ail from theterrors of the night. What is even more important, hefeels we are trying to be with him in his world, sohe can open up to us about the anxieties that drovehim to run. The common bond which is hopefully thusestablished we then can use to bring the child to seeus as benign instead of punitive or dangerous figures.Some time back I described a boy whose fatherwas an alcoholic and who, in his raging drunkenness,would periodically break up the furniture. Worse, hewould turn over the bed the boy was sleeping in andbeat up his wife and the boy. Thus the turning overof furniture was a threat to the boy 's physical existence. So whenever he became anxious, furniturelooked frightening to him, like an enemy, because itmight again strike and hurt him. And whenever hefelt anxious he would begin to knock over chests andtables, toss chairs, and so forth. In his case, we askedourse] ves the question: How can we demonstrate tothis boy that furniture is not as dangerous as hethinks: that he is now living in a world where furniture will not fall on him or crush him any more. Oursolution was to boit down the furniture to the floor.The next time he got into an anxious rage again andtried to throw furniture around he was astonishedto find that it did not budge. This convinced him thatwe were trying to see the world through his eyes.That is, we had agreed with him that furniture thatcan be thrown is potentially very dangerous for alittle boy and must therefore be changed into im-movable furniture which is safe. While at first he wasfrnstrated, he very soon gained tremendous securityfrom the fact that he was now living in a world where furniture was useful instead of lethal. That wealso re-arranged our lives in the institution to give himthis security gave him a first inkling that he andhis security were more important to us than our con-venience. And when that was established, we couldunbolt the furniture because it was safe.Because of our efforts the world around him turnedinto a world that was a bit more friendly, more con-cerned about his welfare than he thought. So onelittle step of our work with one child was behind us.Because who doesn't want to live in a friendly world?I hâve said that our work is at once very simpleand highly complex. It is simple enough to boit achair to the floor. It is extraordinarily complex tounderstand the workings of a schizophrénie mind andto discover the hidden meanirig of furniture in such amind— or of a hundred other riddles such as thatlight bulbs are dearer than people because they giveoff the warmth and energy that people never gave;or that white blouses are mesmerizing because behindthem stands a hopeless craving for white milk givenwith love.Behind the bolting down of a chair lie months,sometimes years, of the most minute attention to thechild's behavior as he eats (or doesn't eat), sleeps orlies haunted by delusions at night; how he talks, andhow much; what his incompréhensible mutterings orscreams hide, and what they may tell once we discover the key to this secret language. And out of ailthis, our task is then to create not one but 45 différentenvironments, right hère on the Midway, that will fitthe idosyncracies of such a mind and dispel its secretdistortions about people and the world.It is as if we were asked to unroll without breakingthem, and to decipher the Dead Sea scrolls, written in45 différent languages, where we knew the meaningof only a few words but none of the rest of the vocabu-lary or any of its syntax or grammar. And in the endwe hâve to be in full command of the language, evento its rhythm and cadence, knowing it better than thechild does himself. If we can do that, then we canproceed to remaking the world to meet his needs.Eventuàlly then we can guide him to modify thoseneeds to where he will want to live with us in aworld that we— and now he too— can share with therest of mankind. ?JUNE, 1965 THE UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO MAGAZINE 91965 FUND KICK-OFFL*^fll f J|^B .Over two hundred alumni gathered at the kick-offréception for the Chicago area campaign of the 1965Aiumni Fund drive, held on the afternoon of April29, at the Mid-America Club atop Chicago's Prudential Building. Ferd Kramer, '22, National Chairman ofthe Alumni Fund, asked that ail alumni work towardthe realization of this year's $400,000 goal in time forthe Fund announcements at the June 12th Reunion.Also participating in the program were Charles F.Cutter, '29, Chicago area fund chairman, and BurtonDuffie, '31, AM'34, chairman of an educational com-mittee of Chicago area teachers who are working forthe support of other teaching alumni.Président George W.

Edith Green (D-Ore.), heldhearings on the Higher EducationAct of 1965 and the Vocational Rehabilitation Act Amendments of1965 at the University 's Law SchoolApril 30 and May 1. The éducationbill seeks to fortify collège anduniversity educational resourcesand to aid post-secondary and higher éducation students financially,while the vocational rehabilitationamendments aim at more fiexibil-ity for administration and financingof state rehabilitation programs andat improved services and facilitiesfor groups with spécial problems,such as mental retardation.Among witnesses for the éducation act: John M. Stalnaker, '25,AM'28, Président of the NationalMerit Scholarship Corp.; Mrs. Mar-jorie Keenleyside, '32, Librarian atRoosevelt University; HerbertGoldhor, '42, Associate Director ofthe University of Illinois (Urbana)Graduate School of Library Sci ences; and Robert J. Havighurst,'23, Professor in the Department ofEducation and on the Committeeon Human Development. WilliamGellman, '55, Executive Director ofthe Chicago Jewish VocationalService, was one of the witnessesfor the amendments hearings.SCIENCE COMMUNICATIONS—Don R. Swanson, a physicist andDean of the Graduate LibrarySchool, proposed a plan for harness-ing the science "information explosion" at a session of the Colum-bia (University) EngineeringCentennial Symposium, May 5. Because of increasing specializationand a prolifération of publishing inail areas of science, scientists findit harder and harder to keep upwith ail that is written in theirfields, and so they tend to rely onclose groups of associâtes who com-municate frequently and inform-ally. "The notion of small clustersof scientists who read and cite eachother's papers and, more important-ly, communicate through informaiTHE UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO MAGAZINE JUNE, 1965channels has been often recognizedand seldom disputed, yet largelyignored in most visions of futurelibraries, information centers, andinformation services." Mr. Swansonwould like to see a library Systemwhich offered scientists an information center or group of centersstaffed by people who keep tabs onwho's who within groups of scientists, publishes and circulâtestheir newsletters, and studies citations in the literature. By means of"hot lines" to 50 or 100 laboratoriesaround the world, the center couldact as a switching point for information inquiries that cannot bedirectly handled at decentralizedpoints. "This new center may moni-tor the whole pattern of dissémination of scientifîc information, and(help) . . . insure encouragementof the production of necessary re-views, summaries, and digestionsof scientifîc literature," said Mr.Swanson.STUDENT AWARDS-The Deanof Students Office, in coopérationwith the Alumni Association, an-nually honors ten outstanding grad-uating seniors for their contributions to the extra-curriculum of theUniversity. This year's award win-ners were Marc Cogan, Eric Gang-loff, Eugène Groves, Mark Joseph,Ellen Karnofsky, Robin Kaufman,Judith Magidson, Ulrich Melcher,Charles Packer, and Peter Rabi-nowitz. At the Annual Honors As-sembly on May 20 each student re-ceived a cash award from theHowell Murray Fund, establishedin memory of Howell W. Murray,14, a former trustée. After convocation on June 12, the award win-ners will join visiting alumni at theReunion festivities at HutchinsonCourt, where Alumni AssociationPrésident Philip C. White will présent each of them with the Association^ Student AchievementMedal.CZECH GIFT-At an April 25thréception and tea, the Council ofHigher Education, a 62-year oldAmerican Czechoslovakian organi-zation, fulfilled a pledge made tothe University in 1962 by making athird annual gift of $4,000 to helpbring outstanding scholars in Czech and Slovak languages and litera-tures to the Midway campus.

Dr. Jacobson, whojoins 28 other U of C faculty mem-bers in the Academy, is internation-ally known for research on bloodformation and disease, and on ef-fects of radiation on living tissues.He pioneered studies of the kidney-produced hormone, erythropoietin,which controls the formation of redblood corpuscles, and, in 1939, wasthe first man to make clinical useof radioactive isotopes. Dr. Jacobson has been recognized for hiswork by several groups. In 1963the American Nuclear Society gavehim a spécial award for work indetermining the rôle of the spleenand blood-forming tissue in pre-venting and repairing radiationdamage. In 1962 he received theBorden Award in the Médical Sciences from the Association of American Médical Collèges for his abilityto "develop programs of researchwhich yield décisive answers."

Agostinicited widespread payoff s to top athlètes, including himself, and questioned the value of AAU rules barringbonus payments to amateurs. His proposed solutionwas to legitimize payments— and thus destroy theconcept of "amateur" in track compétition.Phil Coleman, '59, steeplechase star and UCTC member, answered Agostini in a succeeding issue of SportsIllustrated with a widely acclaimed article entitled"The Idea of an Amateur." The writer's fee for thearticle, incidentally, went into the Club's frequentlyempty treasury. Coleman wrote of rewards for amateur compétition that are not related to money, rewards whose value may only be tainted by payment.Coleman wrote of a dedication to sports and sports-manship that ranks with the upholding of ethicalstandards by professionals in other fields. And hewrote of a pure joy in competing, win or lose, thatrecalls the exhilarating total involvement sometimesdescribed by créative artists. This statement of theideals and joys of amateur compétition still standsunchallenged, and it expresses the spirit in which theU of C Track Club was formed, fîfteen years ago.In 1950, U of C Athletic Director T. N. Metcalfsuggested the organization of a track club in whichvarsity members and alumni could participate as ateam in AAU compétition, a club which would supplément varsity track events. In the manner of thingsthat fulfill a need, the idea was a success and theUniversity of Chicago Track Club was born. By 1955the Club had attracted athlètes from outside the University, who sought the use of our facilities for trainingpurposes. Thèse people were invited in, and amongthem was Lawton Lamb, ex-Illinois 1,000 yard runnerand miler. Lawton became a regular at practice andsolicited my coaching advice. He became activelyacquainted with regular UCTC members. Finally, heinquired if he might become a member himself andrepresent us at invitational meets. We were happyJUNE, 1965 THE UNIVERSITY OF to accept him, and he became the first member notaffiliated with the University as we opened our mem-bership to résidents of thé state. When in 1956 weestablished a trophy honoring our outstanding athlèteof the year, we made the award rétroactive to 1955and honored Lawton Lamb as our outstanding athlèteof that year.Our présent active membership includes about 100athlètes. About thirty of thèse are varsity, anothertwenty or so are graduate students, and the remainderare alumni and ou t-of -school athlètes. A significantnumber participate on a year-around basis, while someof the younger, in-school athlètes are active only duringthe summer months.We pride ourselves on the fact that we do no re-cruiting. Our members hâve corne to us because theyknow we offer an opportunity for track and field participation that they are actively seeking for themselves.There may be instances where an especially shy athlètehésitâtes to seek membership, but we feel that it isbetter to run this risk than to actively solicit members.We make no commitments as to what the Club willdo for members other than try to provide them withan opportunity to train and to compete at their properlevel. About half of our members train in the facilitiesof the University; the other members are scatteredthroughout the Chicago area and the State of Illinoisand train in high school and collège facilities neartheir homes. We do not discriminate on the basis ofnationality, race, creed, color, âge, athletic ability,éducation, or économie status. The only screening procédure used is the inquiry, "Are you actively inter-ested in track and field compétition?"The Club originally assembled for only a few meets,principally the Central AAU Indoor, Outdoor, andCross Country Championships. But now our programhas evolved to include many times that number ofevents, plus open meets and dual meets with otherschools; and club members hâve participated in International meets and clinics in England, Scotland,Trinidad, Italy, Portugal, Greece, Finland, Norway,Sweden, Germany, Russia, Poland, Hungary, andthe Congo.OF CHICAGO MAGAZINE 19Our meets hâve lots of athlètes, few spectators,little fanfare, no cérémonies, no queens, no gimmicks . . .Because we do not tally team scores in our openmeets, many schoôls are encouraged to send a fewathlètes or a f ull team without concern for their show-ing in the scoring column. In past years we hâve haddual meets with Michigan, Illinois, Michigan State,Indiana, Iowa, Wisconsin, Notre Dame, Kansas, Loyola, DePaul, and Southern Illinois Universities. Weconsider thèse meets a real opportunity for our athlètes. We try to give schools the compétition they maybe seeking, but we are just as happy to compete ona no-team-score basis as we are when the scores aretotaled.This is not to say, however, that Track Club mendont post some impressive scores and records. OnJanuary 23 they defeated Michigan, the defendingBig Ten Champion, 67-64. In 1963 Hal Higdon posteda new American record for the 20 kilometer run (66minutes, 40.8 seconds) and won the NAAU SeniorOne Hour Run, doing 11 miles, 504 yards, in an hotir.That same year Cris McCarthy, '60, AM'63, establishedan American record for the 50 kilometer walk of4:44:55. In 1960 Willie May had placed second inthe 110 meter high hurdles at the Olympic games inRome. Phil Coleman, also an Olympian that year, seta record of 8:55.6 in the 3,000 meter steeplechase atthe NAAU outdoor championships. The following yearBrooks Johnson set a world record of :06.0 for the60 yard dash.We usually run a déficit on our own meet opérations. This could be overcome by running fewer meets and spending more time on organization andpromotion, but instead we hâve deliberately chosento concentrate on providing training and compétitiveopportunities. Our meets characteristically hâve lotsof athlètes, few spectators, little fanfare, no cérémonies, no queens, no gimmicks. We usually are notsure which athlètes will be there except our own. Wepay no expenses to any athlètes, and we hâve no ad-vance commitments from any name athlètes. Thismeans that we can only supply very gênerai information in advance to the press, and that we can't pub-licize spécifie athlètes or events very much. But wecan run a meet as often as once a week and drawfields of 150 to 250 athlètes from a five or six statearea.For our local meets we give inexpensive awards,usually consisting of a medal which is undated buthas the place and event on it, and a ribbon whichstates the name of the meet and the date. The onlypart of the award not usable at another time is theribbon, which costs about ten cents. By not havingteam scores in our open meets we save the expenseof furnishing team trophies.Our athlètes, except the varsity, provide their ownequipment, including uniform, track shoes, and sweatsuit. We hâve no regular dues, other than a locker fee,although many members contribute in response toour annual fund-raising letter. We do not hâve aregular budget: funds are raised according to ourneeds. Annual expenses usually amount to about ten20 THE UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO MAGAZINE JUNE, 1965Dan Trifone, Frank Loomis, and Coach Ted Haydonthousand dollars and are met by contributions, guar-antees from meet sponsors, entry fées, and gâte re-ceipts. Contributions, our largest source of support,corne from former track athlètes, alumni, track andfield officiais, corporations and civic groups, and fromparents, employers, and friends of our athlètes. Expenses are principally for travel to meets and for foodand lodging, and it is not unusual for our athlètes topay part of their own way. On some trips the Clubfurnishes the transportation and the athlètes pay fortheir own meals. Sometimes, if the guarantee moneyis sufficient, the Club will buy a good meal foreveryone after the meet.Through our System of opération we hâve beenable to get our athlètes to ail of the national indoor,outdoor, and cross country championships in the pastten years. I don't believe we hâve ever had to leavea deserving athlète at home because of lack of support. We hâve found that having to struggle for fundsassures an economical type of opération which iswholesome and efficient.The spirit of enthusiastic coopération and participation is found in every aspect of the Club's activités. A great amount of after-hours volunteer workis necessary for the gênerai administration of theClub, for fund-raising, and for organizing our meets.We contribute this time because we enjoy it. For the1959 Pan-American Games, the track at Chicago'sSoldier Field was surfaced with en-tout-cas, a spécialcinder-loam track material imported from England, and then off ered to us for the taking when the Gameswere over. The Club members themselves got to-gether and provided the manual labor for its installation on the Stagg Field track. Of course we enjoyquite a bit of social spirit and good fellowship, too.Our annual dinner has become an event of importanceto our members and to the community, and récentguest speakers hâve included Ken Doherty, AveryBrundage, and Rafer Johnson.The success of The University of Chicago TrackClub has evolved out of a combination of circum-stances which might be duplicated in other com-munities. The ingrédients are facilities, interestedathlètes, réceptive school authorities, leadership, andcommunity support. Our existence is made possibleby the willingness of the University's Athletic Department and our Athletic Director, Walter L. Hass, togrant us the use of facilities for training and compétition. Some large corporations hâve helped withcontributions; the Mayor's office has helped; andother schools in our area hâve given us encouragementand support. The running of the organization actuallyinvolves the coopération of more than a hundred ofour own athlètes, several hundred contributors, sev-enty or more officiais, and of hundreds of other athlètes, coaches, and spectators in Chicago and theMidwest. AH of this has served to make the Club possible, and any of its accomplishments hâve, in turn,been by-products of our effort to be of service toathlètes and to the spirit of amateur compétition. ?(UNE, 1965 THE UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO MAGAZINE 21eounzZHSAZKSTrojan Women The University's Court Théâtre, now preparing forits eleventh season, began in 1955 as a student sum-mer drama activity with a four-play Molière festival.Technical facilities were meager, but the productionshad freshness, vitality, and the blessing of a uniquelyattractive outdoor setting: a wooden stage built onthe Hutchinson Court fountain, the audience seatedail around on the court's grassy banks, and surroundedby trees and gothic buildings. Combined with thepleasantness of a summer evening and the dramaticingrédients of lights, color, sound, and live action, theresuit was a theatrical wonderland that thrilled audience and company alike.The first season was a resounding success, andCourt Théâtre swung into an ambitious second season—and another success— with renewed vigor and im-proved technical facilities, presenting plays of Shakespeare, Euripides, and Anatole France. By the endof its third season, improvements and success began22 THE UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO MAGAZINE JUNE, 1965Visitor Tyrone Guthrie (left) chats with Court Théâtre Director James O'Reillyand students during the University's récent Festival of the Arts célébrationto be taken for granted, and the word "tradition"began to be heard backstage. In that season CourtThéâtre received national récognition in Théâtre Artsmagazine, and international récognition in The Student, a United Nations magazine published in fourlanguages. By this time Court Théâtre had changedits basic concept to a community theater, to permitthe participation of professional and semi-professionalactors and directors from the faculty, the neighbor-hood, and from outside the University— people whohad been moved to contribute their talents after ex-periencing the quality of the performances and thebeauty of the setting. And with the professional participation came a redoubled interest by student actorsfrom University Theater productions, attracted by theopportunity to gain expérience of a professional natureand to act in classical drama not performed elsewheren the area.

Christopher Fry's The Lady's Not ForBurning will open on July 30; and BenJonson's Volpone will open on August 20.The new season offers its usual promise ofoutstanding entertainment in a unique set-ting; and Court Théâtre, with ten seasonsof expérience, has established itself bothas a University tradition and as the oldestproducer of classical drama in the area.24 THE UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO MAGAZINE JUNE, 1965Court ThéâtreKing Lear in rehearsal. and performanceA Primer OnROCKEFELLER CHAPELVisually, the most enduringly im-pressive structure on campus is stillRockefeller Mémorial Chapel,though the "cultural mile" of con-temporary buildings along thesouth side of the Midway Plaisanceposes formidable challenges. FrankLloyd Wright once wrote, "Gothicsoared for me, too," and perhaps hewould agrée that there is Gothicstrength of form in the Chapel'swell-proportioned towering bulk,simplicity in the great striding bayson either side, and endless fascination and grâce in the exécution andarrangement of the sculpture,whether stone, métal, or wood.Rockefeller Mémorial Chapel isan original design in the Gothicmode, taking the shape of an ir-regular cruciform: The east transept, which forms the base of thetower, is longer than the west transept. The Chapel is 265 feet long,120 feet wide across the transept,102 feet high. It is constructed ofsolid masonry, faced with Indianablue limestone, and the founda-tions, on 56 concrète piers, go down80 feet to bedrock. The tower wallsare eight feet thick at the base, andthe tower rises 207 feet to dominateail other University buildings.The construction of the Chapel,designed by architect Bertram G.Goodhue, began in August, 1925.The building was dedicated Oc-tober 28, 1928. The cornerstonebears the date it was laid; 1926.The donor was John D. Rockefeller.On Thanksgiving Day, 1932, a72-bell carillon in the Chapel towerwas dedicated. It was the gift ofJohn D. Rockefeller, Jr. in memoryof his mother, Laura SpellmanRockefeller. An appréciation of this remark-able building can begin with theChapel's ornamentation. The stonesculptures were the work of LeeLawrie and Ulric Ellerhusen, ofNew York. The interior wood carv-ings were executed by Alois Lang,of Oberammergau, Germany. Thesubjects chosen are not exclusivelyBiblical or ancient, but include afew drawn from the Reformationand even contemporary life. AUthe figures adorning the Chapelcarry identifying emblems: forChrist, the cross; for Michael,sword, crown, and balances; andso forth.A line of 15 life-size stone figureswinds around the exterior of bothsouth turrets and fills the slant ofthe gable. Beginning on the west,thèse figures are Abraham, Moses,Elijah, Isaiah, Zoroaster, Plato, Johnthe Baptist; Christ (at the peak);then Peter, Paul, Athanasius, Au-gustine, St. Francis, Luther, andCalvin.The peaks of the highest but-tresses that frame the south win-dow show head-and-shoulder stonecarvings of Mathew, Mark, Luke,and John. Although architecturallythe Chapel is essentially masculinein tone, there are féminine touches,too. At the spring of this great southwindow arch there are demifiguresof St. Monica, mother of St. Au-gustine (west) and St. Cecilia,with musical instrument (east).The west column of three figuresalongside the window includes(bottom to top) James, Amos, andJohn Huss; the east column, John,Hosea, and William Tyndale. Ac-cording to University historian Edgar J. Goodspeed, the horizontalpairs of figures on thèse columns represent the "Glorious Companyof Apostles, the Goodly Fellowshipof the Prophets, and the NobleArmy of Martyrs."Across the balcony parapet overthe doors, eight kneeling angelsalternate with the coat-of-arms ofnine American universities of pri-vate foundation. Winged dragonsstand guard at either side.Above the doorway stands thearchangel Michael with his mightysword, an earnest of battles stillto be fought. Over the double doorsthere is inscribed in stone: "ThyKingdom Is an Everlasting King-dom." Small stone medallions ofcrusading knights in armour kneelat the spring of the doorway arch.On either side of the doors, wingedheads represent the angels Gabrieland Raphaël.Antique demifigures surmountthe side buttresses near the southfront, and on the east face arethe Artist, with a tiny wingedhorse on his shoulder, and thePhilosopher with his staff; on thewest the Statesman, with scroll andthe rods of office, and the Scientist,with the crystal and open scroll.The inscription on the southeastcorner buttress reads, "I Will LiftUp Mine Eyes Unto the Hills"; onthe Southwest buttress, "Thy Righ-teousness Is Like the Great Moun-tains."The inscriptions worked in stoneand métal are difficult to decipher,because antique abbreviation andcompression of lettering hâve beenused.On the west exterior wall of theChapel, the narthex entrance isflanked by figures of Learning, withlamp and book, and Service, withcup and pitcher.Moving north along the westwall, the next entrance présentsstudent figures of the générationin which the Chapel was built: ayoung man in army uniform anda young woman carrying the torchof truth. The inscription over thedoor reads, "Ye Are the Sons ofthe Living God."The close group of figures at thetransept west entrance representsthree types of minds in universitylife: the Scholar (with pen), Ad-ministrator (with diploma and itsseal), and Scientist (with vial).At the base of the window abovethe door are demifigures of Mercy(left) and Truth (right), withRighteousness and Peace abovethem, illustra ting Psalms 85:10. Theinterior of this entrance is orna-mented by demifigures of Priest(with seven-branched lamp) andProphet ( with scroll ) . At the north-west corner of the Chapel standsan outdoor pulpit for summervespers. The Windows of the Chapel carry the carved arms of ten stateuniversities (west) and ten foreignuniversities ( east ) .On the east side of the Chapel,the tower is distinguished by tallnarrow buttresses, with shallow set-backs every 50 to 70 feet. About85 feet above ground, on eachcenter face of the tower, are small,stone, double balconies where, onoccasion, a brass ensemble hasstood to accompany a performanceof the carillon. At the second buttress setback level there is a secondséries of single balconies, one oneach of the four corners of thetower.Looking higher to the third levelof buttress setbacks, demifiguresmay be seen of the Poet, the Think-er, the Merchant, the Craftsman,Builder, and Teacher.At the 160-foot level, above thebelfry openings, are 16 stoneshields, four on each face, bearingemblems of the life and death ofChrist.At the 172-foot level stand demi-figures of Faith and Love. Twelvefeet higher and immediately abovethem are owl and eagle, birds ofWisdom and Inspiration. In thecenter face of the 188-foot parapetsstand figures of Thomas Aquinas28 (east), John Bunyan (south),Thomas à Kempis (west), andErasmus (north)— "two intellectualsand two mystics," according toGoodspeed.Inside the tower, a tightly spiral-ling stone stair winds upward tothe clavier room, the belfry, thebalconies, the upper story, and theopen gallery that runs around thecopper roof of the tower.At ground level, the tower dooris flanked by demifigures of Présidents Wilson and Théodore Roose-velt. The arch spandrels of the doorare decorated with bas reliefs ofAthens, ancient city of learning, andChicago, modem city of learning.The interior of this entrance dis-plays demifigures of Music (Bach)and Architecture (Goodhue), serv-ing Religion. The shield above thedoors bears the University's arms.The sculpture of Goodhue, by LeeLawrie, shows a model of theChapel in his hands and, behindhim, a model of the other great académie chapel he built, at WestPoint.The exterior of the east aisle dooris flanked by demifigures of Danteand Milton. Demifigures of Dayand Night are carved on the outerarch of the porte-cochère. Thedoors présent a line from the Nine-teenth Psalm: "Day Unto Day Ut-tereth Speech; Night Unto NightSheweth Knowledge."The finest first view of the interior of the Chapel is gained byentering through the center doorsof the narthex. The lofty interioris softly radiant. Daylight entersthrough leaded glass Windowsformed of intricate geometrical designs in tints of mauve, amber, paleblue, and pale yellow-green. Atnight, illumination cornes from antique lamps swung by chains fromiron supports projecting from thewall piers.The nearly square, 43-foot-highclerestory Windows of the bays sur-mount triforia and cloistered aisleson either side of the nave. Theaisles, floored with ragged-jointedslate, lead without a break past 51double rows of pews to the chancelrailing. Including pews in the transepts and galleries, the Chapel seats1,889.Rugged stone piers support theceiling. This is a major departurefrom the Gothic stone vault of theMiddle Ages in which the rib serv-ed as the foundation for the vault-ing. The ceiling, faced with Guasta-vino tile, has an interior height of79 feet. The chancel raised floorand rail are of Napoléon graymarble, inlaid with marbles ofother colors. From the rail rise themarble lectern formed by twoeagles set back to back and thecanopied pulpit with carved em-blems of the Four Evangelists:Angel, Lion, Ox, and Eagle.The main console of one of thegreat organs of this country, withfour manuals and 103 stops, islocated west of the chancel. Itsantiphonal organ console, with anadditional 23 stops, is located inthe choir gallery. The organ pipesare on the east wall of the chancel.The ceiling of the apse abovethe reredos bears, in color, medal-lions and panels by HildrethMeiere, of New York— an illumina-ted représentation of St. Francis'"Canticle of the Sun."The reredos itself, of délicatestonework, rises 35 feet high behind the communion table. Eighttracery panels at the crest of thereredos présent some of the par-ables of Christ. There are dozensof very small carved stone heads(crowned, mitered, wimpled, orcowled) adorning the lower edge.Ceiling arches and supportingcorbels throughout the Chapel, aswell as the carved oak screens, areornamented with many emblems ofecclesiastical significance.The Chapel shows a few signsof passing years. Ail the stoneworkhas become a softer gray. The ceiling color has dimmed. And hèreand there may be seen bronzemémorial plaques: to the war deadof World War I; to the first chap-lain of the University, Charles R.Henderson; and, in the columbarium behind the reredos, to formerchancellors of the University.Without ostentation, but withsoaring emphasis, the Chapel présents a continuing inspiration to thestudents, faculty, and strangerswithin her gâtes, seeming to say,indeed, "What is past is prologue."

ButI want to make clear that my commit-ment to rigorous libéral éducation, thescholarly life, and to philosophy has notbeen shaken by thèse events ...
