...most straightforward appraisal of Lehigh's liberal arts program for technical students probably can be credited to Loyal Vivian Bewley, Dean of the College of Engineering. He states: "The general studies program doesn't make them cultured, but it does give them a good smattering...An engineer is an engineer and if you try to make him everything else in the catalogue, you end up with nothing...
Tanned, handsome Antarctic Explorer Vivian Fuchs arrived in London with his igman team at Waterloo Station, where he lit up a convivial pipe for photographers, who caught his wife Joyce in a mood that suggested he ought to change his tobacco. Later, "Bunny" Fuchs and his company dropped in on Buckingham Palace, where Queen Elizabeth knighted him (for leading the group on a 2,000-mile trek across the frozen continent), presented medals...
Last week two whopping gifts brought the center a trombone-length nearer reality. From Socialite Art Patron Mrs. Vivian Allen (daughter of Department-Store Tycoon Joseph Shoenberg, one of the founders of the May Co.) came $3,000,000, to be used on a 1,200-seat repertory theater.

Total gifts so far: $28,550,000, largely from the Ford, Rockefeller and Avalon Foundations. Still needed...

...shining low in the north and the weather (10° F.) was balmy for Antarctica when Britain's Dr. Vivian E. Fuchs and his band of tractor-borne scientists paraded into Scott Station on the Ross Sea. The New Zealanders manning the station greeted them with a brass band: a trombone, washboards and garbage-can lids. Sled dogs howled a mournful welcome, and Americans from the nearby headquarters of Operation Deep Freeze presented a cake iced with the flags of Britain and New Zealand. Said bearded "Bunny" Fuchs: "We did what we set out to do." What...
