Lowell House senior Dick Button will be off on his yearly whirlwind world skating tour December 20. This season's trip, his fourth since he came to Harvard, will also be his most ambitious; it will last more than three months, and will cover France, Germany, Switzerland, Austria, India, Japan, the Philippines, and Hawaii.
Button, Olympic and World Figure Skating Champion, plans to begin his program with an exhibition at Indianapolis December 20. The proceeds will go toward a fund to provide part of the $20,000 which pays the American skating team's expenses for the Olympics, to be held in Oslo, Norway from February 15 to 20, 1952.
He will then head for training at Garnisch-Partenkirchen in Germany in preparation for the Olympics. Then, after the Olympics, Button will start back to Cambridge by way of Vienna, Tel Aviv, Bombay, Calcutta, Manila, Tokyo, Honolulu, and Colorado Springs.
