R r sr v+er «ny. s uwr e w ro v : MAJOR WINTER SPORT: Top Ski Resorts Listed PROCEEDS HELP YOUNG PATIENTS: Galens To Hold Annual Tag Day This Weekend Increased popularity in winter sports is indicated with opening of four new developments and costly expansion programs which bring to 21 the number of winter recreational areas to be operated in western Michigan this season. Installation of a new snow-mak- ing machine at Boyne Mountain, addition of a new J-bar lift and huge expansion and improvement program of other facilities con- tinue to make Boyne Mountain Lodge the leader among mid-west- ern........... .a winter resorts and one of the top ten in the country. Keeping pace with this rapid growth, Caberfae, largest and most diversified ski area in the mid- west, has completed a $60,000 im- provement program during the summer months and expects to top its record of over 47,000 skiers last year, Mount Mancelona, formerly operated by Mancelona Chamber of Commerce, has been purchased by private interests and completely redesigned and rebuilt. With the addition of a T-bar lift, numerous slopes and other improvements, it now becomes one of the finest areas in the state and is destined to be one of the most popular. One of the new areas, Harbor Highlands is located on the northern tip of Michigan, three miles north of Harbor Springs. More than 300 acres of improved ski area offer vertical rises up to 500 feet and down-hill trails through hardwood forests of 3,000 feet. It has three ski runs, two rope tows, a warming house and a ski patrol. Ward Hills, another new area, between Ludington and Baldwin, has three ski runs, rope tows and slopes designed for all classes of skiers. In the central part of the state, between Lakeview and Amble, is Brady's Hill with eight ski runs, skating rink and shelter house with snack bar. Farther north, Mount McSauba, one mile north of Charlevoix, will' begin its operations with a major ski run, beginners' area and shelter house with snack bar. It will be open weekends. Supervising the famous Boyne Mountain ski school this year will be Austrian Franz Gabl, interna- tionally known Olympic champion and coach. His staff will include seven of the foremost teachers of skiing from world-famous slopes of Eu- rope and America. A new ultra-modern cafeteria, and lodge of 40 specially furnished rooms have been added to already existing facilities consisting of three lodges, two of which adjoin a spacious chalet-type clubhouse. Clubhouse houses the main din- ing room and lounge with huge thermopane windows overlooking ski slopes and an inviting refresh- ments room. In front of the clubhouse is an ice skating rink. Boyne Mountain also has one of the largest ski, shops in the mid- west. This luxurious winter ski resort has a ski-week vacation plan and is open to others daily and week= ends as well. With ski facilities of 28 slopes, a 25-acre slalom bowl, numerous tows, ski shop, patrol and beauti- ful new shelter house and expert ski instruction by Monty Montague and his staff of certified instruc- tors, Caberfae expects to draw re- cord crowds this year. Located 16 miles west of Cadil- lac, Caberfae is operated as a non- profit organization and as such' does not have lodging facilities on the site. Housing facilities are available in Cadillac and in many motels and winterized tourist courts in the vicinity. Meals are available in the large clubhouse. One of Michigan's most out- standing ski areas is Mount Man- celona, just north of the village of Mancelona on Highway US-131. This area provides 10 ski runs, miles of ski trails, clubhouse with rental equipment, snack bar and, outside of Boyne Mountain, is the only area in West Michigan to employ a T-bar lift for its patrons. Its many miles of ski trails are in the heart of what United States Weather Bureau terms the deepest snow circle in the lower peninsula. It has special week-end skiing "packages," ski school and "learn to ski week" plans. Provisions have been made at the club for trailer parking. Near Boyne Mountain and with- in city limits of Boyne City is an- other popular ski area, Avalanche ski park. A municipally operated park, it; is lighted for night skiing and has, two ski runs, rope tows, clubhouse, patrol and ski school A modern ski lodge, complete' with snack bar, fireplace, lounge and other facilities is located at the base of the ski slopes.- In the Traverse City area are three other fine ski areas: Holiday Hills, one mile west of the city; and Sugar Loaf Mountain, 17 miles north of Traverse City. Showplace of Holiday Hills is the recently completed clubhouse of modernistic design with huge fireplace in the lounge, The 13 ski slopes, lighted for night skiing, attract thousands of novice and expert skiers through- out the season. The ski school, under Hans (Peppi) Teichner, attracts many beginners to the area. Facilities include dining room, snack bar, rope tows and ski patrol. Tobogganing is also popular at this winter sports area. One of the finest community- developed winter sports areas of Michigan is Hickory Hills, under supervision of Traverse City recre- ation department.1 Located one mile west of the city, it has eight ski runs, electri-1 cally powered rope tows and an-a other slow-moving rope tow in the; "bunny section." The outstanding clubhouse is a popular spot with its huge round, center fireplace, lunch room and other facilities.a Seventeen miles north of Trav-; erse City is another outstanding area, Sugar Loaf Mountain.- Here there are a fine slalom bowl, three-quarter-mile long main ski slope, rope tows and many other excellent facilities all helping1 to make this Leelanau peninsula, area one of the finest in Northern° Michigan.1 One of the longest ski jumps in the lower peninsula is at Briar Hill Ski Club, three miles east of Me-1 sick. The ski club offers wide variety' of ski runs, rope tows and rental equipment. Shelter house has a snack bar. In Newaygo County a Winter Sports Park, three miles north of the village on M-37, has become popular for winter sports fans from a wide, area. Two new ski slopes have been opened and lighted for night use. It will be open nightly during the week, afternoons and evenings on Saturdays and Sundays. Two half-mile-long toboggan runs are among features offered at the club. Large shelter house is situated near the slopes. Newaygo Chamber of Commerce maintains and operates the park on a non-profit basis. In Petoskey the Michigan Win-' ter Sports Carnival will be staged, on two consecutive weekends - February 2 and 3, February 9 and 10, this winter. Michigan's Winter Queen will be selected and crowned in a colorful ceremony on the latter weekend. Most spectacular event on the an- nual program is Winter Wonder-° land Revue staged by locally-train-' ed figure skaters.' These and other attractive events throughout the season make Winter Sports Park, consisting of two municipally operated areas, one of the most popular in thej area. It offers ski slopes, two ice skat- ing rinks and snow jumper run on which a one-runner sled offers a! challenge to adults and children. Manistee Ski Area is offering baby-sitting service in an unique effort to stimulate family skiing in that area. This area has facili- ties of 17 ski runs, rope tows, 10 open slopes, seven ski trails, rental equipment and clubhouse with snack bar, Located east of Manistee in UdellsHills of Manistee National Forest, Manistee Ski Area as rapidly grown into an outstanding Michigan winter recreation area. School children of Manistee and nearby Wellston will receive free ski instruction under a program sponsored by the Manistee Board of Commerce. A ski school is available to the public under a full staff of experi- enced instructors. Lake Valley Winter Sports Re- sort, 12 miles east of Kalkaska, offers a complete program of ski- ing, tobogganing and skating to its winter guests. One of the six ski runs has been improved to carry skiers far out onto the snow of Black Lake. New, this year, is a chalet cock- tail lounge and motel to accommo- date 40 guests. Main lodge has a dining room and lounge, Missaukee Mountains, three miles north of Lake City, has un- dergone considerable improvement this season. It will have six ski runs and a large beginners' area along with slopes for the inter-' mediate class. Popular with guests is the 24 by 80 foot rustic clubhouse with lounge, fireplace, snack bar and rental equipment section. Among the modest ski develop- ments of West Michigan is Glacier Hills at Bellaire. Operating at present with shelter house and main ski run of 800 feet, served by tow rope, full scale development plans are underway for the 80-acre site. Two ski jumps, one of them the longest in the lower peninsula of Michigan, hold the center of at- traction at Elberta Mountain, a municipally-d e v e l o p e d winter sports area along Lake Michigan within the boundaries of the city of Elberta. An innovation in ski jumping has been successful at Elberta Mountain which has lighted one of! the jumps for night exhibitions. In addition to jumps there are num- erous ski runs, all served by rope tows. - Winter sports activities at Ionia are centered at Brock County Park,! two miles west of Ionia. Principal attractions are a 2,000-foot-long toboggan slide and large skating rink. Lunches are served on weekends! in the large modern shelter house. Echo Valley is one of Michigan's most complete winter sports areas and most extensive development in the southern section of Western Michigan. Located midway between Kala- mazoo and Battle Creek, Echo Valley's big attraction Is its six toboggan runs. Runs are fashioned out of pour- ed concrete over which water is sprayed to freeze to hard, light- ning-fast surface. A supervisor, housed in a control hut above the runs, has complete! control over the runs at all times. At the base of the runs is a huge! clubhouse where lunches and re-l freshments are served, and just a few steps from there is the large skating rink. Open every night and days and nights on weekends the entire area is brilliantly lighted for full night enjoyment. A ski jump is main- tained for the expert skiers who come there to practice. By ROBERT BALL Members of Galens, the medi- cal student honorary society, will be standing on street corners around Ann Arbor tomorrow and Saturday in their third annual Tag Day. The proceeds from the drive, w h ich in past years have amounted to about $7000,hare used for two Galens supportedl projects. The Galens' workshop, .located on the ninth floor of University Hospital, is a recreation area for young patients. It features varied equipment for working in arts and crafts, has both a book and a record library, and listening fa- cilities for the records. A full-time special education teacher supervises the workshop. In addition, patients who cannot be moved to the ninth floor are personally visited by the teacher. A play area is also available on the roof of the hospital. Baseball and other outdoor sports are played there when the weather nods approval. Workshop Projects The children decide for them- selves what project they want to undertake -- perhaps making a lanyard, book ends, or a wood profile. Children arrive at the workshop on foot, in wheelchairs, or in beds. The workshop provides occu- pational therapy on a miniature level. It is sometimes the only pleasant part of a child's stay at the hospital. The other of the two Galens supported projects. is an annual Christmas party for the young patients of the hospital. Since some of the children go home for Christmas, the party is held ear- ly, next Thursday this year, This year 199 children in the hospital will receive gifts and par- ticipate in games. The parties will be held in individual wards. Santa Claus naturally will make an appearance in each ward. Party Candy The candy usually associated with a children's party will be distributed during the week with the regular meals, according to Miss Mary A. Bancroft, assistant director of the hospital school. Stockings are hung on the walls on Christmas Eve by those chil- dren too ill to go home for the holiday, and these are filled with gifts by Galens members. Bob Kretzchmar, '57M, Galens president, described a more com- plete program than the mere fill- ing of stockings. "Thirty years! ago Galens took on the job of making a complete and wonder- ful Christmas for the unfortun- ate kids who have to stay in the hospital," he said. "If a hospital was ever like home, the Univer- sity Hospital is at Christmas." The Galens were recently re- stricted by SGC from soliciting on the campus, although the restric- tion applies only to the "main campus" area. With this obstacle in mind, the Galens will be doub- ly pressed to reach their quota of $7,000. Expansion of their opera- tions during the years has resulted in a program costing this amount annually. Cocteau Play To Be Given Jean Cocteau's "The Infernal Machine" will be presented by the department of speech at 8 p.m. tomorrow and Saturday in Aud. A, Angell Hall. As a poet, novelist, playwright and film director, Cocteau is con- sidered one of the most unusual figures in 20th century French literature. Under the direction of Prof. Jack E. Bender, of the speech depart- ment, the production will utilize the style of Reader's Theatre for this second experimental playbill, Included in the cast will be Glen Phillips, '58; Larry Jones, '59; Richard Johnston, '58; Richard Schiller, '58; Beverly Canning, Grad.; Nicholas Havinga, '58; dell, '58; Harriette Cohn, '58; Jesse Meyers, '57; Katherine Fo- dell, '58; Harriette Cohn, '58; Richard Allen, '60; Sheila Finkel- stein, '59; Elaine Steiger, '58; Willard Root, '59Ed, and Sandra Marx, '59. I Cardinal Mindszenty Reports On Period Of Red Torture NEW YORK () - Hungary's Cardinal Mindzenty was tortured by Red secret police for 29 days and nights before his trial on trea- son charges in 1949, he disclosed in an interview published yester- day. The cardinal said he was stripped nude, beaten for days on end with a rubber hose, kept in a cold, damp cell to irritate his weak lung, forced to watch ob- scene orgies, and questioned with- out sleep throughout the entire period. When he collapsed, he was re- vived immediately to deprive him of rest, but no drugs were used to make him confess to trumped- up treason charges at his trial, the Cardinal told his interviewer, Hungarain-speaking Leslie Balogh Bain.
