Bolles Heads New Athletic Faculty Group

Owen Made History Chairman, Rhinelander Chairs Gen. Ed., Thompson New Music Chief

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

Thomas D. Bolles Director of Athletics, officially became the chairman of the Committee on Athletic Sports yesterday.

His appointment was announced at the meeting of the Faculty of Arts and Sciences. The ex-crew coach steps into the spot vacated by William J. Bingham '16 when he resigned as Athletic Director last fall. Bingham chaired the committee only a few months. It was formed last spring to take over some of the duties of the disbanded Committee on the Regulation of Athletic Sports.

The meeting also heard the appointments of David E. Owen, professor of History to the chairmanship of the History Department of Randall Thompson N. Walter Bigelow Rosen Professor of Music to the top post in Music, and of Philip H. Rhinelander '29, lecturer on General Education to head the Committee on General Education.

Bolles baby Faculty Committee on Athletic Sports works with the newly reorganized Overseers Visiting Committee on Athletic Sports in an attempt to combine both the faculty's and the alumni interest in College sports.

One University official described the new scheme as "more representative and less clumsy" than the old Committee on the Regulation of Athletic Sports, which had operated for 62 years before its disbandment last spring.
