FOR MOST OF US during our year at
AIFT, day-to-day existence at Thunderbird
consists of early-morning battles with the
L a n g u a g e D e p a r t m e n t followed by
equally strenuous tussles with Foreign
Trade and Area. Our attentions to the
other members of AIFT's offic ial family
are mostly c o n f i n e d to g r i p e s about
overly-hard beds to Mrs. Henderson or
overly-soft eggs to Paul Wiechert.
Few of us have time to remember the
larger motive, or purpose, behind our
daily struggle with details, and that others,
with at least an equal amount of
devotion to that purpose, are working to
make our struggles fruitful.
• •
What that larger purpose is has been
well summed up by AIFT's President, Carl
A. Sauer: "The purpose of AIFT," says
President Sauer, "is the furthering of international
u n d e r s t a n d i n g through the
training of young A m e r i c a n men and
women in the special problems and techniques
of international commerce."
The success and growth of AIFT is in
large part owing to the dedication to this
purpose on the part of the men and women
who make up the Administration of
AI FT.
•
CARL A. SAUER, President and Dean
FIRST AMONG THOSE who labor that
our struggles may go on is President
Sauer. A "three-hat" man in his roles
as President, Dean of Faculty, and
Occas ional Lecturer in Business Management
and the History of Latin
America, Mr. Sauer finds time to contribute
his expert precept and example
to the Speak Easy Club at its weekly
meetings. Despite such varied participation
in the affairs of the school, President
Sauer regrets that his administrative
duties prevent him from meeting
and talking with students as much as
he would like. However, Thunderbirds
will remember Carl Sauer as an always
approachable, always willing counselor
and source of sound advice.

ONE WHOSE EFFORTS in behalf of Thunderbird have
been all but unknown to most of us is AIFT's VicePresident,
Stanton S. von Gr abi-ll. As AIFT's roving
emissary, Mr. von Gr abill is responsible for making
known the facts about the school to college students
throughou t the coun try, and for raising financial suppor
t -for AIFT from its friends in the American business
community. Were it not for Stanton von Gr abill's success
in this latter capacity, many of us might never have had
the opportunity of a year of Thunderbird training.
William S. Shaterian, former Professor of Foreign
Trade, con tinues to act on behalf of the Institute as
Assistant to the President.
AS REGISTRAR since 1951, Mabel
Erickson has guided hundreds of us
through the perplexing details of admission
and has maintained the record
of our semester-hours, grade-points,
academic standing, and other troublesome
but necessary data of our progress
toward a degree. In addition, by
their deft handling of the intricacies
of the various Gl bills, Mabel Erickson
and her able assistant, Ruth Snyder,
have made it nearly impossible for
the veterans among us to miss our
monthly allotment.

IF AIF T STANDS FIRS T and foremost for a 1n o trammg
unique among American institutions of higher education,
it also provides a setting for that training which is unique.
That setting is, of course, the school itself- a 180 acre
island of grass, trees and shrubs amidst a sea of cotton in
Arizona's Valley of the Sun. The job of maintaining that
island falls to AIFT's Treasurer and Business Manager,
Berger Erickson. As Business Manager, Mr. Erickson has
final responsibility for the operation of all those depart-ments
which, taken together, make Thunderbird a community
within itself. Working with Mr. Erickson are:
Paul Deuell, Bookkeeper and guardian of the exchequer;
Clara Veit, Cashier and keeper of the switchboard- she puts out
the poop;
Fred Gyger, Superintendent of Buildings and Grounds, yearround
battler against the ravages of time and the desert
climate;
Paul Wiechert, Manager of the dining hall, liberal provider of
that which sustains, and skilled practitioner of the art of mass
boiling the soft-boiled egg;
Amanda Henderson, Housekeeper, who has provided a homeaway-
from-home for hundreds of us;
Charles Braley, Storekeeper and Dispenser of the Mails (when
there was any},

Housekeeper.

AS LIBRARIAN s ince 1 953, Lora Jean· ne Wheeler, more than any other
individual, has ben responsible for the library's continually growing
collection of material relating to the field of foreign trade and international
relations. Lora Jeanne Wheeler's l i m i t l e s s p a t i e n c e and
library know-how are always available to the student with a research
problem.
In her capacity as Resident Nurse, Jean Myers, R.N., has been
exercising her medical talents in behalf of AIFT's halt and lame since
1 950. As plain Jean Myers, her contagious high spirits have been
spreading mirth and good will to all who have come within her
range.
At the west end of the Faculty Building, Nellie Kirkpatrick ministers
to the secretarial needs of the Foreign Language Depa1 tment.
From her hands comes a steady stream of French, Spanish and Portuguese
verb sheets, and after each quarter we seek out Nellie to know
our language grades. At the east end, the Department of Foreign
Trade has had three secretaries in the first semester: Sue Varty, Mimi
Kennedy and Beverly Scott.

Individual employment counseling is offered to the student by Placement
Director, Donald M. Johnson, assisted by his secretary, Dorothy Coker.
The student consults his faculty advisor for aid in
formulating a career outline. AS DONA LD M. JOHNSON, Director of Placement,
has pointed out: the function of the
Placement Office is not to sell a particular student
to a particular employer, but simply to
bring student and employer together to the
mutual advantage of both. Thus a big part of
Don Johnson's job is finding out which employer
is best suited for each student. However,
the problem is often clarified by the definite
requirements most employers have. On our
part the decision is often very difficult, and it
is here - in helping us to a clearer realization
of our own interests and potentialities, and suggesting
opportunities for fulfilling them - that
Don Johnson is of greatest help to the student.

Emily C. Brown, Director of Public Relations, with her secretary, Gloria Shuman
AN IMPORTANT E LEMENT in the success of a
young and unique undertaking such as AIFT is
the degree of public awareness of its purpose and
accomplishments. Providing that awareness is the
job of Emily Brown, AIFT's D i r e c t o r of P u b l i c
Relations. Rarely, one feels, has the woman been
so appropriate to the job. A professional journalist
until coming to AIFT in 1 950 - with time out during
the war to conduct medal -winning publicity
campaigns for the WAC - Emily Brown combines
a p r o f e s s i o n al' s knowledge of the techniques
of communications with an inborn and contagious
enthusiasm for things foreign.
Tom Sunderlin
Ruth Richardson, Administrative Assistant to
the President, and Clara Veit, Cashier
THE UN IQUE RO LE of the faculty in the life
of AIFT students is a reflection of the unique
educational purpose of the school: to pre-·
pare its students in the problems and responsibilities
of international commerce. One of
the faculty's jobs, then, is to teach the techniques
of carrying on business between two
countries. This is by -and-large a classroom
problem. The other- and much larger jobcalls
for developing a totally new awareness
of the outlooks, traditions and beliefs of cultures
foreign to our own. This, too, can be
claAd.IUJD.tn • • •
partly taught i n t h e c l a s s r o o m , but it is
mainly a c q u i r e d through informal, daily
association with people who are themselves
products of that culture or who have known
it intimately through foreign residence. The
opportunity of such association is one of the
prime advantages of a year at Thunderbird,
and the friendships formed between students
and faculty outside of the classroom
have done much to shape the futures of the
individual graduates.
William Lytle Schurz, Director of the Department of Area Studies
and Professor of Area Studies and International Relations
IN COM ING TO AI FT most of us have
already decided that a career abroad promises
more satisfaction than the ordinary domestic
routine. Few of us know exactly how
and why this should be so, and even fewer,
probably, suspect that a really successful
and satisfying career abroad may entail certain
responsibilities. What, we might well
ask, are the full implications of a foreign
career? Answering this question is just one
of Dr. William L. Schurz' contributions to our
training at A IFT. In preparing young men
and women to live and work abroad, Dr.
Schurz is merely passing on to us the experience
acquired in a lifetime of foreign service.
As a result of his teaching, our future
assignments abroad hold out the prospect of
taking part in the national life of the country
rather than simply observing it- as it were
-from the sidelines.
(/)Students of MISS EMILY BROWN's Far East Area gather near the

THE MAJORITY of AIFT students have
always centered their attention on the
Latin American and European Areas. However,
each year finds some students for
whom the Eastern countries exercise their
traditional allurements. These have the
opportunity of studying the major countries
of Asia under Miss Emily Brown, herself
a veteran of many years' living and
working in the Orient. In the Far East
Area course Miss Brown contributes her
own first-hand experience and knowledge
of the countries studied to the research
information gathered by individual
students.

W E LEAVE AIFT, foreign trade notebook
in hand, with some grateful words to
the Department of Foreign Trade. In a
brief nine months' introduction to the
field of foreign commerce the Department
has offered us instruction that is
above all practical and realistic. To provide
this kind qf instruction AIFT chose
men 'Nith long experience in the business
world.
It is under their instruction that the
problems and techniques of conducting
foreign trade are studied in terms of actual
business conditions; probl\"mS which
no text book deals with are brought to
light and solutions suggested which are
the result of personal experience.

of the Department of Foreign

in another important way. As advisors
on the personal career
problems of individual students
their own experience in hiring

AT AIFT, WHEN WE FEE L hard pressed to absorb
nine hours of language instruction per week, it
is a source of comfort to know that students in
the Key Man Program are carrying three times
that load Mondays through Saturdays. The Keymen
in the program are managerial or executive
personnel of American Companies who have received
foreign assignment. In six weeks of intensive
study, the Keyman Program wi ll provide
such people with a basic conversational ability in
the language of the country to which they have
been assigned. The program includes study, under
Dr. Schurz, of the area in which students are preparing
to live, and in keeping w ith the Thunderbird
tradition, wives are encouraged to participate
in the program.

IN THE SPEA KEASY C LUB, "everyone speaks." The members are interested in learning to speak
with ease and confidence before a group. At the meetings each member gives an impromtu,
forty -second speech. Three -minute prepared speeches to inform, to entertain and to convince, and
a reading are given followed by an evaluation. Although the speeches may not all be memorable,
we won't easily forget Jane Merriam's story of the alligator or Gil Kyte's speech in Russian or the
ups and downs of Mrs. Finck and Mrs. Cassidy as related by Karl Ringer. The officers for the first
semester were: President, Harry Neal; Vice President, Bill Merriam; Secretary, Jane Merriam; Treasurer,

The AI FT Marketing Club, affi liated with the
American Marketing Association, begins each semester
with a smoker. Bi-weekly meetings with
speak ers and movies concerning marketing and
foreign trade are the basis for the club's activities.
Under the presidency of Ron Knuth in the Fall the
club sponsored a combination Poolside Party and
Swimming Meet and the annual trip to Hermosillo.

LAMBDA CHAPTER of Delta Phi Epsilon, national professional
foreign service fraternity, was installed at
AIFT on October 14, 1 94 9, at which time Dr. William
L. Schurz and Finley Peter Dunne, Jr., one of the cofounders
of AI FT, were initiated as charter members.
Other members of the administration and faculty later
initiated were President Carl A. Sauer, Vice President
Dr. Stanton von Grabill, Berger Erickson, Charles Buford
and Dr. John Ewing. As a part of the initiation
activities held each semester, pledges of Delta Phi participate
in a work day, designed to contribute some
needed service to AIFT. They have been responsible
for directional road signs in Glendale showing the way
to the school, traffic signs on campus, the impressive
Thunderbirds which decorate the hangars, the car wash
rack, and the repainting of parking spaces in the parking
hangar. The chapter also sponsors a dance and a
smoker each semester and the annual revue "Fisher's
Follies." Officers during the Fall semester were: President,
Ernest Olson; Vice Presidents, Bob Shuman and
Bud Coyle; Secretary, Bruce McGavren; Treasurer, Fred
Jerrett. During the Spring semester: President, Eugene
Box; Vice Presidents, Bill Rodgers and Bob Duin; Secretaries,
Hugh Jamieson and Narce Caliva; Treasurer,

The French Club, a small qroup of "confrres." meet
informally to honor the Gallic tongue they are learn -·
ing. What with a skiing trip, a Fte des Rois, a soiree
chez M. Pierre Laon, the club's gatherings have been
tres aimables.
The Women's Club brings speakers to the campus
to hear their experiences abroad. Of particular interest
were Miss Brown's speech on meeting and entertaining
people in foreign countries (she advised us to arm ourselves
with a stack of calling-cards and Emily Post
when we leave) and Mrs. Jan Oostermeyer's talk on her
experiences in China and Chile. The Club sponsored the
Children's Christmas

TRADITIONS are numerous and varied at
Thunderbird but among the most prominent
are the Spanish, Portuguese and
French choruses. The members meet
weekly to learn songs in the languages
they are studying. Along with the pleasure
of singing they have a chance to practice
fluency and pronunciation.
The choruses are under the maestroship
of Srta. Maria L. de Noronha, who
speaks and has taught all three languages.
In her own right, she has a fine
contralto. The groups have learned everything
from "II Est N e Le Divin Enfant"
to "Guadalajara en Un Llano. "
During the year the choruses gave various
pub I ic performances : at "Las Posadas,"
at the commencement exercises,
for th e annual Lions' Club visit and a ,
radio performance recorded just before
Christmas .

IN TH E FI ELD O F ATHL ETICS Thunderbir'ds of '5 6 engaged in most of the traditional team sports, plus one which has no
known counterpart outside Thunderbird Field. The success of the sports program was largely owing to the organizing efforts
of Ben Mione and Skip Meneely, Athletic Directors for the Fall and Spring Semesters. Inspired by Ben's performance
with an umbrella, we went out to prove what we could do with bat, ball, and racket.
Highlight of the Fall scene was undoubtedly the playoff for the Volley Ball Championship between the Orientes

made him feared on both sides of the border.
AIFT's contribution to organiLed sport, mentioned above, took the form of a swimming meet sponsored by the Marketing
Club. Climaxing an afternoon of unique contests, the team of Coyle, Hansen, Molwitz and Knuth combined their
superior talents tur downing the brew and splashing a lap to win by a safe margin.

FORTY STUDENTS and faculty members received a warm welcome "South of the
Border" during Thanksgiving vacation when they toured businesses and factories
in Hermosillo. Of special interest was the cotton gin. For many of us it was the
first chance to practice our Spanish and bargain for Christmas gifts. The Mexicans
were more than hospitable. All of us returned with a greater understanding of
our Latin American neighbors and a hope of seeing something more of Mexico
again.
Thunderbirds inspect what Hermosillo has to offer in the way of "gins"
AN EXCELLENT forum on
European econemy and pol i-,•
tics was held io November.
Mr. Sauer was moderator for
the panel discussion in which
Mr. S tanley V. Hardy, Commercial
Vice Consul of the
British Consulate-General in
Los Angeles, and Mr. Vittorio
Sanguinetti, Trade Commis-
\.,]
---
sioner for I taly, Los Angeles,--
and Mr. E. J. Alofs, Trade
Commissioner of the Netherlands,
and Mr. Wilhelm Z.
Kriessmann, Trade Delegate
of Austria, took part. Each
o n e b r i e f l y o u t l i n e d h i s
country's position in international
trade. The high level
of questions and answers
which followed made the
evening one of the liveliest
and most valuable of the
year.
The most important performance
of the three chor-uses
every year is the presentation
of "Las Posadas,"
a story chanted in verse of
Mary and Joseph as they
searched for an inn (posada)
the night before the first
Christmas. "Las Posadas" is
a Latin American tradition.
ThP AIFT version consists of
Commercial representatives from
their consulates-general in Los Angeles
are assembled here for a forum
on international trade.
three Christmas tableaux, accompanied by narra tions and songs in
English, Span ish, French. and Portuguese. There was no room in the
inn just before Christmas, nor was there in the school auditorium the
nigh t of "Las Posadas." After the performance a fiesta, complete with
candy-filled pinata, was held in the student lounge. Blindfolded by
Mr. Suarez, faculty, students and children gave lusty blows to the
pinata, held loft by Miss Madrigal.

"Who is Sylvia ... "
THUND ERBIRD FI ELD may not be
Broadway but,. for us, the show to
top them all was the bit of theater
engineered by Sid Loskovitz and
Wally Danielson : the traditional Fisher's
Follies. Inspired by script writers
Wally Danielson and Paul Dulaney,
and deftly directed by Nancy Box,
the cast . of twenty -odd Delta Phi
and some of their "lady friends"
enacted a number of scenes which
could have originated at no other
campus. Where else would you find
the combination of a Spanish baseball
game with President Sauer's
policy on cats. Bunkie Johnson's
views on interviews Clnd a doleful
mess hall octet to Sylvia? Incomparable
performances were given
by Jack Butefish, Aqdison Luce, Karl
Ringer, Gerry Stokes, Phil Keeler,
Horst Daniels, Jim Greene and . . .
we wish we had room to mention
the whole cast. Our applause goes
to them all and to the brilliant pianoplaying
of Jane Merriam for a magnificent
show
Besides bringing people to the
campus to talk on living abroad, the
Women's Club brought speakers to
give us hints on traveling. Mary Gordon
of TWA demonstrated the fine
points of packing a suitcase and
JERRE'S of Phoenix staged a Fashion
Show of packable clothes. Dorothy
Reddan played the piano while various
members of the club walked
between tables in the auditorium
modeling everything from play
clothes and sports clothes to town
suits and evening dresses.

Right: Students and student
wives listen to language records
in the semi-weekly labor-atory
class.
The Nursery is a popular gathering
place for the "crackersand-
juice break."
A I F T b e i n g a g rddu a t e
school, has a large proportion
of married students.
The tradition is to offer the
wives as full a share in the
school life as they wish to
take. When they are not
taking care of their children
or working to send their
husbands through school
the wives study languages
and area courses, support
the Women's Club and the
Nursery and grace our extra
-curricular committees
and the swimming pools.

the same for their legs at the Friday night sessions e>f El Bokcito. Linda Diez provides

THUNDERBIRD TEAMWORK
TO THE TOP
Biggest "if" of '56 in the booming
(eire. 33 million) class year book field
is AIFT'S,*tiny (eire. last year: 1 07) but
struggling (expected circulation this
year: 1 09) THUNDERBIRD. Spearheading
THUNDERBIRD's drive for top place
in the under- 15 0-circulation category
is hardworking (newspapers, milk,
loans) Editor H. (for Herbert) Hansen.
To get the story on who's putting
the thunder into the THUNDERBIRD,

THE PRES
POLICY MEETING OF THUNDERBIRD STAFF
. . . they had never played together before . .
TIME sent its Phoenix leg-man Fowler
B. (for Billov) Lading to Arizona's AIFT
for an on-the-spot report. Cabled
TIME's Lading after a five-minute interview:
YOUTH AND HUSTLE. The secret behind
THUNDERBIRD's bid for leadership
is teamwork. Says Editor Hansen
of his young (average age 23V2) hustling
staff: "They're a good bunch of
kids, but they never played together
before so I gotta show 'em alotta
things they oughta know already.
Team? That's right, a green team."
Grinned Lay-out Editor Wally Danielson:
"Teamwork? Well, I guess so,
32
now you mention it. That's how we
got the pictures taken. Mosher couldn't
do it alone - couldn't focus you know.
Yes, teamwork, that's it." From his
darkroom said Managing Editor and
Photographer Larry Mosher: "Teamwork?
It's everything! Look at layout.
Danielson couldn't read the ruler. Had
to do it for him. Yeah, team work's it."
GREAT PROMISE. The indications all
point in one direction: the AIFT THUNDERBIRD
for '56 is going to be something.

Anything which threatens the
independence of an individual, his family,
or his business ... endangers the very
principles which made our country great.
Today, all of us must keep our eyes and
ears open ... be ever alert. For there are
some who through ignorance and
malice would destroy our Free Enterprise
System ... and, our nation with it.
